• 0:02
  Speaker 1: The whole lot of fundamental principles of freedom, rational self interest,
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: and individual rights. This is the ran Brook Show. Oh right, everybody,
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: welcome to your one book show on this Friday, Fridays,
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: September twelfth. Thanks for joining me. It is late here
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: in Italy. It is ten thirty at night, just a busy,
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: busy evening. I was planning to do this much earlier
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: and then things just get piling up in terms of
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: meetings and stuff and presentations that I promised to do.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: And I've been in this office for four hours already,
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: four and a half hours ready. But anyway, let's get
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: on with the show. So as I don't know where
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: you would have to be not to have heard that
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: the assassin, the murderer of Charlie Cook was captured today,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: actually was handed over to authorities by his father, by
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: his parents, who had figured out that it was him.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: He had admitted it to them, or at least indicated
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: gave them enough reason to believe that it was him,
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: and they actually called the authorities through a friend of
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: the family and and had their son arrested. So good
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: for the parents who put justice and an honor really above.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know the idea of family ties. And as
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: I told you yesterday, I hate to pat myself on
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: the back, but I got to do it sometimes I
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: was right again. The assassin was not a trained professional.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: He was not a foreign agent. Now, I know some
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: of you will say, oh no, this is just a
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: cover up. This is all pretend. The real assassin is
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: still out there. You don't know, you on what are
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: you talking about? This is the cover up. But the
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: reality is that he is not in. He does not
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: work for the Massad. He does not work for the
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Ukrainian secret Police. He does not work for the FBI
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: or the CIA. Well for that matter, he does not
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: work for the Democratic Party. The assassin is a twenty
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: two year old. His name is Tyler Robinson. He was
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: This is a kid that grew up in a middle
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: class neighborhood parents from what I can tell, and a
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: lot of what we're getting right now is you know,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: fog of wool kind of stuff, so that caveat parents
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: are Republican, introduced a gun culture by his parents. So
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: he learned to shoot. And I guess there's a good marksman,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: what can I say? But not a professional smart. This
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: kid traveled with his parents seemed to have a happy
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: childhood and smart. I had a four point zero GPA
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: and I came from what act school to put him
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: in the top one percent of American students. But it
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: was accepted with a big scholarship with from whatever, thirty
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: two thousand dollars to Utah, Utah State, Utah something, and
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: dropped out after one semester. So yeah, I mean, this
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: is the uh, this is the In response to this
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: is on the Utah Boat of Higher Education. In response
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: to the rest of suspected in killing of Charlie Cook,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: we can confirm the Tyler James Robinson as a third
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: year student in the electrical apprenticeship program at Dixie Technical College.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: He briefly one semester, attended Utah State University one semester
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one, and received concurrent enrollment credit through
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Utah Tech University while in high school twenty nineteen, twenty
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: twenty one. So somebody who was smart, who got into
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Utah State with a very good score and a big scholarship,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: but then dropped out after semester, which is strange. Although
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: if you read many of the right wing comments, what
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: are they going to say? They're telling you. Oh, no,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: he was radicalized in that one semester, radicalized and became
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: a nut from that one semester and left probably more
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: like from one semester like that smart kid. Probably mental
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: health issues, but we don't know. We just don't know.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: We don't know. And he's going to technical school, lives
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: with his parents, and is a gamer. He plays video games,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: is uh, you know, quite often on as a significant
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: present on From what we can understand, again, everything's tentative discord,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: fourth channel, you know, the stuff that we game gamers
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: hang out and is uh. We don't know what his
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: politics are. Now. There were markings on the casings, and initially,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: and I think I reported this. Initially, the argument was
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: these are a pro trans anti Antifa markings. But the
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: more I read about it, the more it seems like
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: and by the way they retracted that that statement, they
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: denied that it was a pro trand markings. And the
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: more I read about it, the more it seems like
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: the markings are references within games in one particular game.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: So what's the game here? I don't know what These
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: names of these games are Hell Hell Divers, Hell Divers,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Hell Divers two. So here are some of the references
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: supposedly that were used, uh that were used on the casings,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: all memes and inside jokes supposedly from several communities and
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: four channel discord and read it. One engraving says, notices
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: bulge O w O. What's this? This is a phase
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: popularized by fury and roleplay groups online that has since
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: become a major copy paste in online game communities. Another one,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: Hey fascist catch? This is a renowned meme with a
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: reference to the video game Hell Divers two. Oh Bellaco, Bellaco, Bellaco,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: which is an anti fascist song from Italy and World
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: War Two that has since been remixed into a song
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: popular in many online gaming communities. If you read this,
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: you are gay. I am a O. A phase once
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: again popularized in online communities for similarity to old email
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: chains and trolling posts on Facebook. So again, I don't know.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Maybe hey fascist catch actually referred to a bullet targeted
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: a fascist. I don't know. We just at this point
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: this is clip heaven. Chandler says, why is that equals
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: in reality? He says he plays Hell Divers too. Oh
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: my god, I can't believe I had to hear you
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: run say that anyway, I don't know any of this stuff.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: I'm just reading the news, Chandler says, I'm just joking
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: about making out of context clips. So the point here
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: is we don't yet know what this kid's political affiliation is.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Now the right is clearly saying he's a progressive. Of course,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: he's a progressive. He's an anti fascist. He called Charlie
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Croker fascist in some family conversation that was overheard that
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: is being reported. So he's obviously a fashions he's obviously
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: a leftist. He's obviously progressive, and and that's what motivated him,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: is he's a leftist. This is what drove it. Other
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: people are saying by many people on the left are saying, no, no, no, no, no,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: this is all These are all phases used by gropers.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Now some of you don't know what groupers are. Uh,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: these are people who follow fentis uh, racist, anti Semitic,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: just disgusting. Nick foyentis who is a real evil bastard.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: And Nick foentis uh. This is this is people who
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: follow him and an inferentie is big and four Channel
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: and and some of the other So anyway, everybody's blaming everybody.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Nobody knows. I mean Nick Foyentis might know because he
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: went on a long rant last night about how how
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: we should embrace peace and Christianity is about love and
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: love your enemy, and he doesn't believe in violence at all,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: never has. This is Nick foy interist we're talking about,
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: and it's all about love. Don't hate people who disagree
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: with you. I mean, have you ever heard any commentator
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: online who's more filled with hate than Nick foy Intis.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Maybe he was trying to shield himself from what's already
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: happening and what he already knows in terms of the
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: identity of the shooter. I don't know again, speculation, fog
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: of war, all of that. I mean, look, at the
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: end of the day, what do I think is going
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: on here? It's what I thought, I mean, I think
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: it's what I thought yesterday. I don't know if I
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: articulated it quite like this. I've said it in the
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: past about other shooters. I mean, this guy has the profile,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: or at least from what we can see now, this
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: guy has this profile of a school shooter. I think
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: I said this, Yeah, I remember when I said this.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: I said this about the shooter who tried to assassinate
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Same thing. A profile of somebody who could
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: have become a school shooter alone in their mother's basement,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: playing video games, obviously going through some really horrific mental crisis,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: wants to make it to the front page of the newspaper.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Probably in this case, doesn't quite want to die like
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: a school shooter obviously often kills themselves. Here, this is
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: not suicidal. They want to be caught, They want to
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: see the result. Maybe there's an element of politics here.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Maybe he's some progressive who hates Charlie Cook. That's quite possible,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: but it's also likely that even if that's true, this
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: is some crazy, sick person who knows how to use
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: a gun, wants to show the world and who you know,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: once they be perceived as a hero, like from his
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: video games, of which I know nothing, And yeah, he
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: shot somebody, a big deal. And notice, and this is
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: true of Magiano, the guy who shot the United Healthcare ceo.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Notice how calm these people are after shooting somebody, Like
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: they're both amateurs, and yet they both were incredibly calm.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Set it up, shot the person. The guy shot the
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: ceo of United Healthcare, you know, shut him several times.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: I think walked away, dumped the gun, you know, very
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: calm here, ran off the roof, jump hit the gun.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: That's spooky, and that's that's almost you know, these people
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: are psychotic. So you know, we have to wonder why
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: did he drop up cottage? What happened the stuff you
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: wort in the bullets? Is it indeed out of video
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: game stuff and online chat or is it really political?
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: The bad stuff he said about Charlie Cook? Is that
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: because he's a leftist? Is that because he's just angry
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: at the world? What it is? Where does it come from?
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: We don't know. But there's no strong evidence that this
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: guy has strong political opinions. There's no evidence that he
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: belonged to any group. There's no conspiracy here. There's no
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: leftist conspiracy to kill right wing influences. I mean, it's
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: political violence.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: But I mean look, even in even in the sixties,
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: the actual people who did the killing were nobody's It
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: wasn't a conspiracy to kill civil rights leaders.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: It wasn't a conspiracy to kill the president. Probably, I mean,
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: unless you believe in our RFK, it wasn't some political,
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: politically motivated It was a crazy individual had political beliefs maybe,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: but a crazy individuals who went off and killed an individual,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: and that's exactly what's happening here. This could very well
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: turn into a horror story if people interpreted as no, no,
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: this is the left did it, or the rights did it,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: or this is justified. I mean the scariest stuff I mean,
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: other than the actual murder. I mean, murders always horrific,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: always scary, always pointless, and and just get to it
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: as violence and it just how horrifying. But you're going
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: to get that. I mean, we live in a country
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: where people have guns and where people are violent, and
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: you're going to get that. The question is how do
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: we respond. So the scary part of this is the
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: response by some that celebrated this, the people who thought
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: this was great, good riddance. The people who haven't indifferent
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: indifference to violence, who are eager to celebrated when it's
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: their political opponent, that is what is scary. And then
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: on the flip side, that's primarily the left. What's scary
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: is the right willing to condemn everybody on the left
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: for this act, kill them all, or round them up,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: or close down, shut down the Democratic Party, or I
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: don't know what they actually intend, what they act, you know,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: goal is what they actually want to do. I mean,
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: here's here's Matt Walsh published on a daily wire twitter feed.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: Charlie tried to have a conversation with you on the left,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: and you killed him for it. You, the left. You
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: killed him, not just one individual, you your tribe killed him.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: You're killing us in our churches. There was a this
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: trans person who went and killed a bunch of Christians
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: in a church. Okay, but but you it's the left
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: is doing this. You try to kill our presidents. As
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: far as I know, the guy who tried to kill
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: President Trump was not part of any big leftist movement.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: He was again a loan shooter with mental problems, who
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: is trying to make a headline. You celebrate Charlie's death.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: That I that, I that I agree with. It's time
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: for good to fight back against evil. Now what does
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: he mean by fight back, Because the right is very vocal.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: If he means argue, if he means fight back intellectually, well,
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's what Charlie did and what the right
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: does all the time. They're constantly online fighting back. The
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: right is not silent at all. So What does he
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: mean by fighting back? What's different now? What has changed? Well,
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: what's changed is he means with violence. He can't mean
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: anything else. He means with violence. It's time we violently
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: go after you. And I don't know if Matt Walsh
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: thinks that he is going to do it rally his
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: people to do it, or if he thinks Donald Trump
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: will do it for him. I don't know. But that's scary.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: So the lefts indifference or support of the killing of
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: Charlie At least i'd say none of that. Again, none
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: of the big celebrity left. But we're talking about the
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: the uh you know, students and campuses left. That's scary,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: horrifically scary. And the rights eagerness to get into battle
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: violence in responses is scary. So nothing's new. We have
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: a loony left and the luney right. They're both nuts,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: I mean nuts. Is is not the way to them
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: because they're both they're both philosophically evil and corrupt. Nuts
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: is too much a mental health issue. So it's going
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: to be interesting to see. Again, I don't think I
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: think we'll learn some stuff about Tyler, but I don't
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: think it's gonna come out that he's some passionate, political,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: politically motivated a person. I think it's going to come
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: out that he's a disturbed human being and that I mean,
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: he might have political beliefs, but that's not the primary
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: thing that motivated him. Yeah, I mean, I'm getting a
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: lot of tweets saying, yeah, all these markings they're from
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: health hell, hell divers too, and common common memes. So, uh,
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: let's see anything else I want to say about this. Yeah,
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be interesting to see if he's a grouper.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Nick Fointess is uh a kind of person, so that
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: that'll be that'll be interesting. Uh yeah, I mean he's
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: he's Yeah, this is this is a guy who wants
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: to get your attention, and he got us our attention,
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: he got the entire world's attention, all right. I have
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: to mention this it just as a as a because
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: we're talking about Charlie Coke's assassination. We're gonna talk about
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: a number of issues related to this, indirectly in a
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: minute or directly, but but this one is just is
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: just it's weird and I wouldn't mention it, but it
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: relates to my favorite person on the planet. The president
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: of the United States. Uh, and I'm just gonna read
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: it to you because I I just want to keep
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: at the forefront of your mind just how completely nuts
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump really is. I mean just not nuts in
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: a sense of just bad, but just nuts. He's just
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: not connected to reality. He's just not here. So this
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: is I heard the video. This is a transcript of
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: the video. Short short reporter asks the president, mister Presidant,
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: My condolence is to you, sir. My condolences are the
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: loss of your friend Charlie Cook. How are you holding
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: up over the last day and a half, sir? And
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: this is Trump's response, I think very good. And by
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: the way, right there, you see all the trucks. They're
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: just starting construction on the new ballroom for the White House,
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: which is something they'd be trying to get, as you know,
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: for about one hundred and fifty years. And it's going
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: to be a beauty, absolutely magnificent construction. We just started.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: So it'll get done very nicely, and it will be
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: one of the best anyway in the world. Actually, I mean,
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: what do you do about that? He says? He In
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: other places he's he was very close to Charlie and
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: this affected him greatly. And now he's been asked about it,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: and first of all, he says he's been doing great.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: He's been I think, very good. That's all. He's been
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: holding up very good. And he wants to talk about
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: about them. He wants to talk about a bolt them.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: Doesn't want to talk about this guy's weird. Not not
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: in a good way, not a good way. He's not
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: in reality, all right. I want to talk about some
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: the implications of what's going on and why I think
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: this is such a big issue, the murderer, and some
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: of the thinking, some of what's going to result now.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: It could have it could have resulted in something positive
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: in the sense of elevating this issue to the forefront.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, the Free Press ran a headline, ran a
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: headline today. This is a statement by the editors. And
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: I thought the headline was it's kind of sad. But
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you what the headline is. It's Jessuee Charlie.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: Jesse Charlie, of course, was the thing that everybody posted
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: after the attack on Charlie Hebdol, after the murder of
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: a number of cartoonists and people working for them at
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: the headquarters of Charlie Headbone in Paris in January of
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: twenty fifteen, and it became a slogan of support for
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: Charlie Headbo. Jesu jes we means I am Charlie. I
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: am Charlie. Jess wee Charlie. And at the time I
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: was very critical of it because it's very easy to
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: hold up a placard that says Jessue Charlie. But what
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: does it mean to be Charlie? Well, for the cartoons,
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: it means being willing to criticize Muhammad, being willing to
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: draw cartoons that are offensive to Muslims, being willing to
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: stand up Islam and say no, we are not gonna bend,
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: We are not gonna accommodate you, We are not going
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: to accept your irrationalities. This is the West, and here
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: we make fun of whatever the hell we want to
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: make fun of. And you Muslims deserve to be made
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: fun of. You deserve to be made fun of because
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: your customs, your beliefs are so anti human, anti western,
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: anti rational, and because you are so violent and we
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: are cartoonists. We can't fight you. The way we fight
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: you is with cartoons that would have made you as
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: yestere Charlie that statement going on in public holding up
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: a placard with the cartoon. You know, millions of people
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: came out into the streets in Paris after the Charlie Hebdo.
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: How many of them showed cartoons? How many of them
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: had plack cards with the cartoons? None of them as
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: far as I can remember, maybe a few. But that
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: makes you yes, with Charlie do what Charlie did? Stand
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: up for the values Charlie represented. In the context of
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: this of Charlie Cook, I think the value here is speech.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: It's debate. Again. I've said it over and over again.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: I was not a fan of Charlie Cook's over the
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: last few years. I disagreed with him on lots of things.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: And I think he sold soul for what would you
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: call it, a popularity for power. I've been criticized for
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: saying he lest power. But I knew Charlie before, and
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: I knew Charlie after. And yes, I think he got
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: blinded by the schmoozing with the Trumps. But anyway, it
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Just like I don't like a lot of
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: the cartoons that Charlie Hebdo put out there. I thought
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: many of them were offensive, stupid. Many of the anti capitalists,
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: you know, many of them were anti Western. So I
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: don't like Charlie. HEBDO is a left wing magazine and
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: I disagree with much of what it publishes. Sees me
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: Charlie represents not your agreement with the ideas, but the
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: principle that they have the right to state them as
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: they wanted. Charlie Cook was whoever this guy turns out
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: to be. Ideologically, his killing was interpreted as an effort
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: to silence in and I think a lot of a
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: lot of public figures. ABT Shapiro seems like is canceling
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: a campus tour. I think a lot of people have
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: taken this. The risk of speaking has now gone up,
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: The risk of stating your opinion has now gone up.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: What would it mean to say, yester with Charlie, It
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: would mean to speak, to go to campuses, to engage
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: with the public, to state your controversial views, not to
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: shun not to be scared off. Now take take the
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: precautions that need to be taken, absolutely, but to make
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: clear than whatever the motivations of this murderer was, silencing
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: will not be the results. Silencing will not be what
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: comes of this now. As the Utah Governor Spencer Cox
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: put it today, he said, the murder of Charlie Cook
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: is quote much bigger than an attack on an individual.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: It is an attack on all of us. It is
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: an attack on the American experiment. It is an attack
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: on our ideals unquote. And I'd say specifically it is
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: an attack on free speech, because it's not necessarily an
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: attack on you know, it's on the particular things that
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: Charlie Cook said, which might or might not be American ideals,
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: but it's an attack on his a willingness ability to
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: say them, and you knowing to happen on a college campus,
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: which is doubly meaningful. A college campus is a place
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: of ideas, of debate, of discussion, but it's also a
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: place that, over the last twenty years has seen people
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: twenty five years silence, over and over and over again.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: It is a place where it's professors a teaching that
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: speech is violence. It's if speech is violence, then violence
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: can be used against violence, then it's okay to shut
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: somebody up for speech. Universities are the hotbed of the
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: anti free speech movement. They are where anti free speech
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: lives and breathes whether the sky was motivated by left
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: or right, or wasn't motified by anything, or was confused
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: though sick, or whatever it is it turns out to be. Oh,
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: maybe it was a progressive whatever turns out to be.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: He was acting out the progressives that the far left
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: university professor's agenda. It is their agenda. I don't think
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: it's the left if you can't anybody left of center,
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: but a part of the left hates speech, believe speech
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: is violence. Believe that what Charlie was doing was violence
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: that clearly was insulting, clearly was offending. But they truly
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: believe that offense to a persecuted group. You can't be
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: offended or I can't be offended because I'm not being persecuted.
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: I can't be offended because my skin is the long color.
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: I can't be offended because they have too much money.
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: But if I were poor and with a darker skin,
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: and I don't know, and and and from the other
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: side of the border in Israel, then my offense you
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: offending me would be violence against me. And therefore, what
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: do you do when somebody commits violence against you? You
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: use violence and off defense. So What has me tarted
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: our universities is the violence to silence people is sometimes right.
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: This is the justification for rioting and not allowing a
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: speaker to speak, which is violence. This is justification and
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: the rationalization for Antifa using violence against speakers to silence them,
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: as they did against me when they rushed the stage
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: at King's College and took away the microphones and try
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: to take over the event. That was violence. Indeed, one
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: of the security guys who was at the door landed
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: up in hospital. So this is the outcome, this is
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: the consequence. Now. I mean again, I'm not sure he
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: was radicalized by these people. That's not the point. The
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: point is that these people, these professors, these university professors
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: and the students that they teach now are supporters of
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: this violence, encouraging this kind of violence by the very
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: nature of the ideas that they teach. And the way
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: to fight that, the way to fight that is to speak.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: It's to not let them silence you. It's to keep
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: going to campuses, to keep going and speaking, to keep
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: engaging with people, and in particular it's importance to go
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: on campuses and talk about free speech. Call these professors out,
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: call them for what they are doing. Refuse to be silenced.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: Stand up to the antifa leftist bastards. Refuse to let
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: them silence you. This should be a call to all
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: those who believe in free speech to go out there
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: and do more, speak out more, and make the point.
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: We won't be silenced and we will continue to present
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: an alternative voice, an alternative voice. Two, what your professors
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: are teaching you, Because what they're teaching you is anti
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: human it's anti life, it's anti civilization. It's evil and wrong.
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: It's evil and wrong what these professors are teaching you. Indeed,
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: any professor who teaches that speech is violence should not
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: be a professor, should not have a job. So, yeah,
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: it's scary times. If you look at if you look
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: at poles of students, if you look at poles of students,
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: free speech rankings. You know, the Foundation for Individual Rights,
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: which is great organization around free speech, does a free
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: speech ranking of colleges, and it's part of that. It
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: does surveys and it founded two thirds, two thirds of
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: students at these universities now say that using violence as
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: stop a campus speech can be acceptable. Well, how much violence,
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: what's the level of violence? It turns out that some
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: of them think that shooting somebody and killing them is
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: appropriate now, but it's not just college campuses. In a
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: national survey conducted by the same organization, responders were showing
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: a list of eight reading for op ed it was
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: just published in the Wall Seats journal respondents who were
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: shown a list of eight politically divisive, potentially offensive statements
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: like all whites are racist oppressors America got what it
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: deserved the nine to eleven January sixth or serve peaceful protests.
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: They were then asked to select the statement they found
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: most offensive from the list. Following the selection, respondents were
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: asked whether using violence to stop a speech advocating the
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: idea they selected as most offensive is never, rarely, sometimes,
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: or always acceptable. The good news is nearly eighty percent
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: of Americans reject efforts to silence speech they find personally offensive,
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: large majorities of Democrats seventy seven percent, Independence eighty percent,
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: Republicans of eighty two percent all saying violence is never accepted.
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: This is outside the universities. The bad news is that
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: the story changes dramatically when looking across generations. While ninety
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: percent of baby boomers and eighty six percent of Generation
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: X say violence is never accept acceptable. Only seventy one
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: percent of millenniums and only, and this is shocking, only
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: fifty eight percent of Generations Z do. And it makes
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: no difference if they enrolled in college or not. It
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: makes no difference if they're inhold in college. Generations Z
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: has been raised to believe that speech is violence. They've
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: been raised to believe that violence the silence is okay.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: So this is not just academia. It's a schools, it's
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: up video games, it's the stories we tell each other.
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: Violence is acceptable to Generations Z in a way that
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: it's not acceptable to previous generations. Now, maybe we were
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: all like that when we were young. I don't think this,
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: you know, this kind of survey unless they have it
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: for many many years in the past, can correct for
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: that many Maybe it's the case, maybe there's a youth
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: bias and young people are always more pro violent violence
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: than older people. That is certainly possible, but it's not obvious.
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: I mean this political polarization, the kind of language our
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: politicians use, the kind of macho show offie that our
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: kind of the people like Nick Foentis and you know,
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: not to put them in the same category, but similar
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: category in mad Walsh and others who are you know,
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: aggressive and use language of violence, and use language more
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: than that, use language that vilifies either side in ways
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: that are I think often irrational. I mean, we live
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: in a political climate that encourages people to treat their
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: opponents other people as threats, as violent threats, and as
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: a rhetoric increases in Donald Trump is chief among those
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: I think we encourage this. But as the polarization increases,
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: and as the pundits on both sides become more emotionalists
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: become more use more the rhetoric of violence. It's not
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: surprising that young people view the only way to deal
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: with your opposition in terms of violence. There is a
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: lot of work to do. There's a lot of work
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: to do, and the work is ideological, philosophical, fundamental. We
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: need to remind people, or maybe to teach them for
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: the first time, the values that made the West, the
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: values that made it possible for them to sit in
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: their basement playing video games, the values that made us
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: wealthy and successful, the values that made America America, and
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: the value of debate and speech. Now you know the
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: fact that you have a right to speak. Doesn't mean
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: what you say is good, doesn't mean what you say
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: is valid, doesn't mean what you say even deserves a hearing.
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: But the way to take away the deserve to hear
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: is to walk away. It's not to shoot somebody, it's
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: not to slap somebody. It's not to yell to stop
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: him speaking. It's to walk away or speak against him.
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: I disagree with Charlie about a lot of things, and
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: the way to deal with that is to speak up
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: against them. I would be happy to go on a
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: stage to debate Charlie and use whatever form to speak, speak, argue, right, teach.
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: And it's a company of those of us who believe
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: in the value of free speech to start doing that.
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: And I worry that on the right and on the
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: left today maybe should be on the left because in
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: many respects they started it, and on the right today
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: they do not value speech. Even some of the people
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: in the right who claim to be defenders of free
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: speech do not value speech. They're defenders of speech, they
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: like of speech, they want so I mean it should
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: be a call of arms to all of us, all
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: of you, all of those who believe in the enlightenment,
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: who believe in reason, who believe in rational argument, who
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: believe in using rational argument in debate to convince, and
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: to abhor the use of violence other than the self defense.
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: All right, that is my spiel, and a call to arms,
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: a call to action with regard to free speech. It's
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: what we need more of, more people standing up in
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: defense of this essential right that protects all other rights.
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: Also related to the assassination is now a you know,
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: maybe a sense that people have the kind of people
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: that Trump is nominated to lead, some of our law
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: enforcement agencies maybe are not very competent. You there a
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: number of missteps during this investigation, or at least it
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: seems that way. False information, you know, leaks, but with
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: wrong information, having the backtrack, arresting the wrong people. If
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: not for this family who actually took responsibility and handed
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: in their son, who knows how long this would have
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: taken given kind of the disorganized, haphazard way that this
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: was all handled, and the the ability, the ability of
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: the people at the top of the FBI to do
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: their jobs now been put into question. When you appoint
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: Kush Patel to run the FBI, to be the FBI director,
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: No law enforcement experience, none zero zilch, A critic of
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: the FBI, a maga conspiracy theorist who has no zero
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: zilch qualifications to run the agency will surprise advice. He
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: doesn't do a very good job at it. When you
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: appoint a FK to run health and human services, don't
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: be surprised. Bad stuff happens when the deputy of Kosh
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: Patel is a podcaster, and one at that again an emotionalist,
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: right wing mega conspiracy theory nutcase. He's deputy director of
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: the FBI. There's nothing about law enforcement. There's nothing about
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: how to run an investigation, how to manage people. Neither
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: of these guys to manage people. I mean, the whole
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: thing is as somebody, you know, somebody called it. It
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: was a Mickey mouse operation. Uh. I mean, even Chris
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: Ruffo is not critical a costpitel. Chris Ruffo, Ruffo, who
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: is a huge support of everything Donald Trump does and
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: as a real partizan of the right. Here's what he wrote.
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: I'm grateful that Utah authorities have captured the suspect in
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: the Charlie Cook assassination and think it's time for Republicans
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: to assess whether cash Patel is the right man to
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: run the FBI. He performed terribly in the last few days,
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: and it's not clear whether he has the operational expertise
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: to investigate, infiltrate and disrupt the violent movements or whatever
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: ideology that threatens the peace in the United States. Now.
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know what Chris Ruffe did, what his position
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: was when cash Patel was nominated, but it was obvious
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: at the time and I mentioned it. Cashpertel had none
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: of the operational expertise necessary to investigate, infiltrate and disrupt
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: violent movements. He had none of the qualifications to run
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: the FBI. That was obvious and day one. But they
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: went along, just like they went along with RFK, just
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: like they went along with Bondy and a bunch of
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: other unqualified individuals to run parts of the government, important
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: parts of the government, FBI, part of Justice. Chris continues,
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: this is on a different trend. There are two ways
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: for it. First waysest spiral of violence, which could be
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: catastrophic for the country. Second, federal law enforcement makes a
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: credible plan to resolve the civil order, to restore so
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: you store the civil order, initiates a campaign to disrupt
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: domestic terror networks in all fifty states and sets them
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: in motion with the goal of preventing further bloodshed, all
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: of which Cannon must be done in a principled, legal,
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: non partisan manner. I mean, this is so refreshing from
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: Chris Ruffo, who just yesterday was hyper hyper partisan and
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: suggesting of extra legal stuff to do. So I'm glad
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: Chris Ruffo has been brought in line somehow, or brought
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: himself into line. But here's the thing, and this is important.
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: If you read this, you would think that behind the
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: latest act of violence, the church killing by the trans
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: the killing of Charlie Cook, and in many of the
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: other political violence, even the killing of by somebody from
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: the right of the two Minnesota state officials, that there
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: was some how did you call it, some terror network
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: that made all that happen. But in every single one
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: of the cases, with the exception of January sixth, where
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: it was an actual network that made it happen. But
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: with exception of January sixth, every single one of these
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: other events, whether they were committed by somebody from the
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: right or somebody from the left, did not evolve a network.
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: They evolved Loan crazy individuals, and maybe not crazy. Maybe
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: evil is the right world loan evil individuals. So what
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: is the damage being inflicted on the country right now
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: by domestic terror networks? Now, if they exist, and I'm
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: sure they do, by all means to swap them and
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: do whatever you can't to mutualize it. But in writing
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: it like this, it suggests that what's happened to Charlie Cook,
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: and what's happened before Charlie Cook other acts of violence
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: were a consequence of terror networks and then on, but're
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: just not, he continues. We would be wise to take
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: him moment and ask where that cost. Bartel has what
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: it takes to get this done? I think the answer
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: is clear. No. I mean on the phone in the
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: last few days with many conservative leaders, all of them
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: wholeheartedly support the Trump administration, and none of them are
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: confident that the comment structure of the FBI is up
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: to this task. All I can say is is good
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: for Chris ruff for saying this. I disagree with Chris
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: rus So on a lot, lot, lot, lot of things,
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: just like it did with Charlie Cook. But disagree with
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: him on a lot of things, and even with some
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: of the implications of what he's writing here. But the
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: fact that he's come out against a cost Bartel is good.
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: It's right, it's just, and good for him for doing
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: it because the fact is that usually these tribalists told
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: the tribal line, and Chris is one of the tribal
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: leaders is now establishing a new line. So maybe there's
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: a chance cos Pertel is out if even Chris Ruffo
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: is going after him. All right, I mean, here's the
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: headline and the Wall Seat journal from this morning. Law
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: enforcement officials, so confusion on manhunt for cook shooter, contradicting
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: public statements risk undermining confidence in investigation. Law enforcement veterans say,
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: I think that's probably a reasonable assessment. All right. I
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: had a couple of other stories, including soybeans. Okay, let's
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: run through these, and then I will turn to your
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: super check questions and run through those. It is getting
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: laid over here, so let me I'll do these these
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: these ones pretty quickly. I think the headline on the
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: demographics is that the world is going to shrink. The
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: world is going to shrink sooner and faster than you think,
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: than anybody thinks if contrends continue. And that's a big
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: if big if. Only about one third of the world's
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: people living countries where fertility is high enough to keep
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: the population growing only one third, and even in those
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: places rates are rapidly falling. This is from an Economist
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: Economist Magazine article. Africa still produces many more babies than
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: the global norm, but it is no exception to the
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: rule of faster declines than expected. Now what this means
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: is the world's population is likely to peak much earlier
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: than experts at being predicted, and at much lower levels.
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: I wonder where Paul Earlif is, who predicted the population,
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: the hundreds of millions of people dying of starvation and
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: the population explosion rather than climbing until twenty eighty four.
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: The United Nations countly foreseas to ten point three billion people.
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: It Experts are now saying that it will probably grow
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: in the twenty fifties and never exceed it would stop
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: going sorry, in the twenty fifties. So that's thirty years
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: earlier and will never exceed nine billion, And at that
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: point the world's population will start to shrink, something it
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: has not done since the fourteenth century, when the Black
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: Death wiped out perhaps a fifth of humanity. Black death
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: was an interesting phenomenon. It's a case of invasion from
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: Asia into Europe. The rats invaded and they brought the
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: disease from Asian anyway, in twenty fifties, that's thirty years
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: and now population of the World War peak. Will I
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: be still around? I might. I might still be around
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: when it peaks. That'd be cool. And this is you know,
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: this is US is not free from this. I mean,
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: US population growth is going to slow to a crawl
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: in the next few decades. Fertility rates of decline, that
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: migration is shrinking, less immigrants and Congressional Budget Office are
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: now projecting that deaths will exceed births in the United
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: States in twenty thirty one. It's like right around the corner.
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: And that has been brought forward. It just just eight
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: months ago. They predicting twenty thirty three. By twenty fifty five,
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: the US population will be about three hundred and sixty
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: seven million, up from three hundre in fifty million today.
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: But in the past it was thought that the US
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: population would be much higher in the twenty fifties. From yeah,
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: I mean, we're basically going in you know, zero and
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: unless immigration picks up a lot, or childbirth increases a lot,
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: which is unlikely. This is where we are in population
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: of those will start shining shrinking within most of your lifetimes.
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: All right, soybeans, I mean, this is just a cool story,
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: predictable story that you all know. Soybean manufacturers about two
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: harvest tens of millions of tons of soybeans US US produces,
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: I mean huge quantities of soybeans. Soybeans are used primarily
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: to fatten pork, to fatten pigs and chickens. You eat
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: a lot of soybeans through the food chain, not directly
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: well anyway, the largest buyer of soybeans in the world
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: is China. They buy huge quantities of soybeans, and China
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: had been one of the biggest buyers of American agricultural products,
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: in particular soybeans. As Chinese became middle class, they started
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: to be able to afford to eat pork and chicken,
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: and they started the appetite for poka chicken grew significantly.
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: And you know, the biggest pork, pink farms and chicken
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: farms in the world in China, and they eat soybeans,
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: and they were buying soybeans from American farmers and American
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: farmers were doing quite good business with the Chinese selling
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: them soybeans. Now, also remember that soybeans are grown in
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: Trump Country in the Midwest. The votes for Trump. So
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: China realized during the twenty eighteen tariff wars that one
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: weapon they could have against Trump is to stop buying soybeans,
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: and that then sarbean farmers would, you know, lobby Trump
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: to make a deal with China, which happened back then
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: China promised to buy huge quantities of soybeans, which they
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: never did. Anyway, this year, Chinese buyers haven't booked any
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: any soybean purchasers. They're not buying any soybeans purchasers in
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: the United States. I mean, you can go soybeans in
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: a lot of places. And it turns out Brazil makes
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: a lot of soybeans and they have ramped up production
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: specifically for the Chinese, and Chinese are buying the sorbeans
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: from Brazil, and Chinese negotiators are using soybeans as a
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: carrot to dangle in front of Trump in order to
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: get Trump to lower tarists on Chinese inputs. So in
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: the meantime, the farmers are suffering and they will love
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: a Trump. Of course, they voted for Trump, and Trump
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: said he was going to place taists on China, so
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: they kind of knew what they were voting for. I
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: don't feel too sorry for them, but this is the
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: kind of disruptions the trade war results in. It's completely unnecessary,
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: it's completely unwaruanted for I mean again, if China is
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: an enemy of the United States, stop trading with it.
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: Taots are just a unproductive, disruptive, and distortive way in
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: which to try to penalize soybean farmers China or who
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: are penalizing exactly. Not clear China's doing. Okay, they're just
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: buying it from Brazil. Nothing's changed. Finally, I came across
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: this really good story in the will See Journal or
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: editorial really that I thought was worth just sharing the
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: sentiment of it, and then we'll go on and the
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: sentiment of do you remember all those people who told
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: us that if we bombed Iran, if we did anything
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: to Iran or Israel got involved with Iran, all hell
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: would break loose in the world. I mean, Obama's Deputy
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: National Security advisor Ben Rhodes said over and over again,
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: we can't do this. We can't attack you Ran. We
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: can't do it. It won't I mean, God, what would
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: he Iran? I mean, do you know the damage done
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: to the United States if we bomb you Wan, or
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: if we do anything to you Wan. I mean, he
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: was the guy who negotiated the deal, and part of
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: the reasons to negotiate a deal for the Obama administration
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: because you can't choose military force against Iran. You Wan,
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: It's too powerful, it's too strong, it could do unbelievable harm.
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: Do you remember techer Carson telling us that, I mean,
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: what did he tweet? He tweeted, the first week of
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: a war with Iran could easily kill thousands of Americans,
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: and attack in Iran could very easily become a world
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: war and we'd lose tackle CAUs. I just want to
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: remind you that Americans, no Americans have died since the
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: United States has attacked Iran. The world has not ended.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: Iwan has been to some saint coward. They are now
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: making noises about wanting to negotiate with the United States
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: and wanting to negotiate with Europeans, and they're willing to
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: be willing to have the International Atomic Energy Agency maybe
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: coming and do inspections after all, and please don't put
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: more sanctions on us. And no, no, no, will behave.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: We promise we'll behave, We'll do good. Now. I don't
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: believe a word of what they say, and neither should
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: they negotiated with them. But the reality is always that
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: the way to deal with thugs, the way to deal
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 1: with brutes, the way to deal with people who understand,
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: who deal with violence, is with violence. The way to
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: deal with the bully is to fight him, is to
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: stand up to him, is to give him a piece
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: of his own medicine. And then the case of you run.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: They were always I've said this for years, decades, really
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: always a pay per tiger. So another pat of my back,
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: I called this, they are pay per tiger, and they've
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: been shown as such. And there was an article today
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: by Raul Mark Gerich and Ray Tucker basically making this point,
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: and I thought this is great. I mean, the reality
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: is that Iran was shocked by how badly they did.
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: They were shocked by Israel's capabilities, they were shocked at
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: the United States had the audacity to bomb them, and
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: they are significantly less of a threat to Americans. Israel
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: today than they were before the Twelve Day War with
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: them all right, that, my friends, is the news for today,
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: September twelfth, twenty twenty five. We are doing really, really
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: well on the super chat, but we are still short
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: about eighty three dollars. So I just want to encourage
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: you to four, you know, for twenty dollars. Questions, we'll
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: get us there. And in spite of the fact that
• 1:03:16

• 1:03:22

• 1:05:27
  Speaker 1: that we can get it done. You guys agree. Oh,
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: by the way, I complained to Twitter and not to Twitter,
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: to YouTube about the fact that when we do those goals,
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 1: it doesn't seem to count them all. And they said
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 1: they would get back to me and they'll try to
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 1: figure out what's going on. They seemed surprised and may
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 1: be the only one who's complained about it. All right,
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 1: I guess you can see that can of raid over there.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: There is a mosquito in the room. I did see
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: him earlier. I didn't zap him. I wasn't fast enough.
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 1: I couldn't kill him. I couldn't nothing. And I don't
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 1: know who he is. I haven't seen him since. I
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: once in a while feel like maybe he's biting me,
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: but it doesn't happen, so who knows. All right, let's see,
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: so let's go to a super chat. I'll start with.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: The question was just thank you Robert for the stick.
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: I'll start with the question was just asked because Silvana's
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: put one hundred dollars one hundred dollars behind it, so
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: I have to start with that. Because I go from
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: the top down basically in terms of dollars, at least
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 1: for the above twenty dollars questions. All right, savannahs, thank
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 1: you really really appreciate it, he says, how you won
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: thanks to the continued coverage of the Cookes subject. Could
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: you elaborate on why it's popular to call Coca fascist,
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 1: whether he was or wasn't. Well, I think it was popular.
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 1: It's basically popular on the left to call anybody on
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: the right fascist. And uh, you know that is a
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 1: consequence of the fact that the right wants to impose
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: their values on you. Now, so there's the left, right,
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: so there's the left. But the left sits on some
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: kind of mall high hosts and and they believe that
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 1: inflicting their values on you. It's on economics. It is
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 1: not really an infringedrum of rights. They really really believe that, right,
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: it's not really economic economics is not an issue of rights,
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: and that it's but the right ones they inflict their
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 1: maral values on them. They want to inflict their their
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: views about morality and they used about the individual behavior
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 1: and that they consider fascist. There are also elements on
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 1: the right that are fascist, the and so on. Element
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: on the right that are authoritarian, the elements on the right
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 1: that are racist, the elements on the right that are
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 1: economically fascist, that is, and Trump is one of them,
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 1: in that the government should take economic positions in companies,
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: that the government should, you know, as it has owned
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: the means of production, that the government should you know,
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 1: that the present should be able to intervene in any
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: economic transaction happening anyway, and have his way economically. Those
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: I don't think Trump is a fascist, but certainly those
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: are fascist proposals. Now, I don't think Charlie Coke was
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: a fascist. Charlie Coke was a right wing, a right
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: winger who suddenly was wanted to impose his model, his
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 1: religious code on all of us. He wanted to impose
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: it through government. He was he had definitely was willing
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: to use the government in order to impose his particular
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: view of the world on all of us. By coursion,
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: he was not a capitalist. He was not a free
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 1: market Enlightenment type. He you know, he was an interventionist
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 1: and he was all for significant executive power. But he
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: was also stood for free speech. He also supported elections.
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 1: I don't think he denied that Trump lost the the
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty election, although I'm not sure. I don't. Yeah,
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 1: I don't think Charlie was a was a fascist. Now
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 1: he was moving in a mouthoritary in direction. He was
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 1: moving in a direction of more executive power. But look,
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 1: the left throws the fascist accusation out everybody they disagree with.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: They call me a fascist all the time, they certainly did.
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: When they demonstrate against me, they call an random fascist
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: and have for decades now called an random fascist. Anybody
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: they disagree with is a fascist. And often if they
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 1: perceive you as supporting capitalism, and they I don't think
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: they can tell the difference between cronyism and capitalism, capitalism
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: to them them is fascist. It's the rule, the thiritarian
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 1: rule of the moneyed interests. So for all those reasons
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: they used the term fascist. But again Charlie was not,
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 1: and they say that again as a critic of his ideas.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 1: He was not because he really did, I think, believe
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 1: in free speech, and he really did. I mean again,
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 1: he had a lot of bad ideas, and I don't
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 1: know what he would have been like if he'd become
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: a politician and run for president one day, which I
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: think was his ambition. And I think he would have done.
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure what kind he would have been. I'm
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: not sure how depends, I think on the state of
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: American politics at that point. But yeah, I mean it's
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: a phrase that left throwsat and by the way, the
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: right does the same thing, and I know some objectives
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: to do the same thing. Every leftist as a communist.
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 1: Anybody who voted for the Democratic Party is a communist.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 1: I am called regularly on Facebook. Facebook is the only
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: place I think this happens. I don't know. I'm sure
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 1: other places do. But I said he did believe in
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 1: free speech. I said that. I said that more than once.
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 1: I don't know who you're listening to, inn but this
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 1: happens all the time on Facebook. I'm called a communist.
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 1: I'm called a leftist why because I don't like Trump,
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 1: because I think Trump is really really bad. Because I
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 1: didn't vote Republican. Therefore I am a leftist and I'm
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 1: a communist. So the throwing around of labels like that communist.
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 1: People on the right throwing at the left again, some
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: objectivists throwing at the left. They're all communists, they're not.
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 1: Anybody who voted for against Trump is a communist. And
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 1: then the left calling everybody who voted for Trump or
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 1: anybody who support doesn't support they cause a fascist. It's
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 1: tribal it's tribalism, and it's I know, I get accused
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: of saying this all the time. It's both sides are
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 1: guilty of this. Again, the left started it. I believe
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 1: that in many respects, the left started because the left
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 1: dominates the intellectual hign But the right response to the
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: Left with the same infantile, the same irrational, irrational, the
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 1: same postmodern arguments that the left starts with. So hopefully
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 1: that is a clarifying answer. SIV honors all right, Richard Richard. Wow,
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 1: Richard has just done two hundred and fifty dollars. Thank you, Richard.
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 1: At least maybe there's more out there. Turn of fifty,
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 1: so Richard says, thank you for your work. You're on
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 1: loving regular shows. Just got married yesterday Courthouse Only. Congratulations.
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: That is fantastic. I hope you have a fantastic, wonderful
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 1: long life together of love. Do you still officiate weddings?
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 1: I haven't done a long time, but I absolutely open
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 1: to it. What's your rate? God, I don't know. I
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: mean I don't know wherever it is, business travel, a
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 1: nice hotel wherever this is, and something on top of that,
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, Richard, email me if you
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: maybe you have already. I'll think about it and let
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 1: you know, and you know, think about it and let
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: you know. I'm happy to do it. Put it that way.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to charge your rate that that makes
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 1: it impossible to do. You know, I used it. So
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 1: here's my rate for talk. And this is about us
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: time consuming. There's a talk I guess maybe less prep,
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 1: which is four thousand dollars, right, so something in that ballpark.
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 1: Richard goes on to say, we still plan to do
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 1: a lot of ceremony with family and friends. That's great, Uh,
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: you know, do something fun. This is the thing about weddings.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: Here's the thing about weddings. I'm glad you got married
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 1: in a court room, courte house ceremony because that just
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 1: gets it over with. It's it's it's it's a done deal.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: You you you got the kind of legal stuff out
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 1: of the way. When you plan a wedding ceremony, move
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 1: away from convention. It drives me nuts. All weddings exactly
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 1: the same. They go through the same there's a list
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 1: of things you have to do, there's a certain process.
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 1: Just do something imaginative, break a few rules. Uh, have fun.
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 1: So many people, so many people, UH do it where
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 1: it's so nerve racking before and during the wedding that
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 1: nobody they're not they're not having fun. And because it's
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 1: so scripted, the audience isn't having fun because yeah, it's
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 1: the same as ever your at the wedding. So to
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 1: the extent that you can think of something different, something
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: to really celebrate you and who you are and what
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: you love and what you value, then do that. Do
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: that anyway, The fifty dollars question is exactly the same.
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 1: So thank you, Richard. I really really appreciate the support.
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: I haven't seen you around. I mean, you come once
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 1: in a while and you always always are very supportive.
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 1: So I very much appreciate that. Thank you, thank you,
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 1: thank you, And yeah, I'd love to do it, and
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: let me know what you think is reasonable and we
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 1: will do it. Oh, Richard continues, another hundred dollars, Thank you, Richard.
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 1: My wife is a non citizen and the woman in
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 1: my dreams. That's amazing to hear. Immigration is a very
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: important issue for me, obviously. Do you have any insights
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 1: on marital green card application. I'm a lawyer, but experienced
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 1: with receivables finance cap markets doesn't really help with us. No,
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 1: but I have a recommendation for a lawyer. My cousin,
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 1: my first cousin, really, the only first cousin I have
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 1: a decent a relationship with decent, not otherwise any relationship with.
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 1: My cousin is an immigration lawyer in Los Angeles, and
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 1: she's very good and she has represented you know, people
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 1: from the Institute because I've referred them to her, and
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 1: she's had good results. And she's a really nice person.
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 1: So she's the kind of person you want in this
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 1: kind of law where she'll hold your hand and walk
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 1: you through the process, which is an ugly, unnecessarily complicated
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 1: and stupid process. She'll walk you through it and she'll
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: give you all the information and everything. So again, drop
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 1: me an email about the ceremony and dropping an email
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 1: about this, and I'll put you in touch with her.
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 1: I think you'll be happy with her. I think she's
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 1: I think she does good work. She does good work.
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 1: She got Augustina who just became a US citizen. I
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 1: think I think it was my cousin who who had
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 1: her case and dealt with him. So all right, and
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 1: again congratulations and women in my dreams is that's what
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 1: I like to hear. That's fantastic, all right, not your
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 1: average algorithm. A two part question, Part one. A part
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 1: of me thinks without objectivism becoming a significant, bigger force
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 1: in the culture. I don't see how this gets turned
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 1: her out. But if you look historically, inflation, crime, political
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 1: assassinations were forwards in the nineteen seventies, yes they were.
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: Where's the part two? You didn't label part two two?
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 1: Or did you? Sorry, I'm looking for the part two.
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 1: Maybe there isn't a part two. Oh, there it is.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 1: Then we had forty years of prosperity since Reagan Revolution,
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 1: without objectives and growing much Jimmy Carter revolution. You gotta
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: start giving credit to Jimmy Carter. Really, So a few things. One,
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 1: you're absolutely right about the seventies, sixties and seventies one
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 1: forwards in terms of crime, motivates, in terms of political violence,
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: in terms of a lot of these things. What was
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 1: different The politics was less confrontational, less divisive. So, for example, people,
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: it's For example, a lot of the deregulation that led
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 1: to the prosperity happened under Jimmy Carter and was led
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: in Congress by Democrats like Kennedy who worked with Republicans
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 1: to pass massive devagulatory bills, massive demagatory bills. So you
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 1: got all the major, really major deregulation happened on the
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 1: Jimmy Carter and a Congress that was dominated by Democrats
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: who worked with Republicans in a Bob Pierson way to
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: get good, relatively speaking, good legislation pasted. Second ein Rand
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: was influential. I know, nobody thinks that the Objective's movement
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 1: wasn't big, but she was alive and she was influential.
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 1: People listened to her, people read out of the shrugged
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 1: A lot of people did, and a lot of people
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 1: in government. Did you know, Alan Greenspan was an economic
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 1: advisor to to Ford and he was respected also among
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 1: Democrats and among the economic advisors to Jimmy Carter. He
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 1: you know, so it's a sense in which Ford started
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 1: the deregulation. So it was an error that it was
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 1: Objective's influence in politics, and even now there is right.
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: I mean, look at Alex Epston Epstein. So you know,
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 1: you're right. We recovered from that, and I think we
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: can recover from this. But the challenge we placed today
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 1: is that we've never had a president like Donald Trump.
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 1: We've never had a movement like MAGA with the kind
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 1: of influence that they have. That's the right. On the left,
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 1: the New Left of the nineteen sixties that was really
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 1: really bad is much more established and mature. Now their
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 1: children and grandchildren are the professors at the universities who
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 1: are much more sophisticated, entrenched, dominating than the New Left
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 1: was in the sixties and seventies. So both on the
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: right and on the left, things are much worse. By
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 1: the way, I never said Jimmy Carter was a good president.
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 1: I said he started the deregulation that led to the prosperity,
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 1: which is a factual truth. So it's not clear where
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 1: Ronald Reagan comes from. There's nobody in the Republican Party
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: to who's Ronald Reagan, and if there was, they wouldn't
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 1: get elected. Take Paul Ryan, Well, I think is the
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 1: closest to Ronald Reagan in politics who was in politics?
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 1: Paul Ryan. Paul Ryan can't get elected today. I mean
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 1: I would vote for Paul Ryan as president in a hardbeat.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 1: I think he's better than pretty much anybody out there.
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 1: You know, he's got his problems, and he sold out,
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 1: and he's suddenly no you know, objectivist, no capitalist. But
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 1: he's better than pretty much everybody else in their public department,
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 1: and was when he was a congressman, at least theoretically.
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 1: That is, at least ideologically in terms of what he said,
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 1: not always what he did. He can be in politics today.
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 1: He has no home, even somedingy just gonna manage. So
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 1: again I disagree with on from Polsi and a few
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 1: other things. He's not a Republican. He couldn't win a
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 1: Republican election. So I don't know where the savior come from.
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 1: There's no movement to do you regulate other than in energy.
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 1: There's no movement for economic liberty. Nikki Haley has no influence. Yeah,
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 1: there's no rational voices, not on the left and not
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 1: on the right in politics, because both the left and
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 1: the right are beholden to the activists, and the activists
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 1: are maga or crazy left far left galitarians. There's no
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 1: sane Republicans of significance, and they're saying democrats of significance.
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't see how. I don't see how
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 1: you get out of the mess. Women. It's it's you know,
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 1: it's heading towards authoritarianism through and through one way or
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 1: the other. We're heading towards the Veritianism. And we might
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 1: transition through a period of leftist craziness, but at the
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 1: end of the day we will end up with some
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 1: kind of proto fascist regime that's religious and patriotic and
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 1: America first and whatever, and it will be a nightmare.
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 1: But you know, yep, we could be surprised. Somebody could
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 1: come out of the woodwork, and the making people could rally,
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 1: and MAGA could fall apart, and the left could lose
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 1: its hold in the universities, and a lot of things
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 1: could happen. A lot of things could happen, And you know,
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 1: gold to three three thousand six sund is one of
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 1: few months, says suggests financial markets. At least people who
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 1: buy gold are worried about the state of the world.
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 1: It's not an inflation hedge. It's the end of the
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 1: world hedge, and the end of the world hedge is
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 1: worth a lot of money right now, because there's a
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 1: lot of people worried about the end of the world.
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 1: Not that I think the end of the world is coming,
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 1: because I don't think we're quite there, all right, PB
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 1: conspiracy theory. Cook assassinated by Israel for suggesting that Danielle
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 1: gave October seventh standdown order. Can you please steal man
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: this theory and respond these theories are a trap for
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 1: well meaning young people. I need help defending reality. No,
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 1: you can't steal man the theory. The theory is arbitrarrian basel.
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 1: It means nothing. There is zero evidence to suggest that's true. Zero.
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 1: You cannot steal man a theory based on no evidence.
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 1: You cannot steal man a theory that is completely arbitrary.
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 1: Everybody should listen to Lenden Peacock's talk on this on
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 1: on the arbitrary being non cognition, having no cognitive value.
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 1: And if you can debate it, you can't argue it.
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 1: I can't prove a negative, so and I can't steal man.
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 1: There is no argument that digital did this. There's no
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 1: conceivable idea. This is just pure emotionalless drivel driven by
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 1: primarily anti Semitism. So it's not even worth engaging with
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 1: people who buy into stuff like this. They are you know,
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 1: they're mindless. What are you engaging with? You know it's
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 1: not a trap. The trap is if you engage, this
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 1: is zero. The only thing to say is show me
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 1: the evidence, not random theory, show me the evidence. I mean,
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 1: there's no steal meaning of this. There's no evidence. There's
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 1: nothing to steale. Man. We don't have any evidence that
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 1: Nintenio gave an October seventh stand down order. Zero zilch
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 1: evidence of that. That's just somebody made up. And there's
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 1: no evidence that the guy who shot who is just arrested,
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 1: is that as we agent. There's just no evidence. There's nothing, zero,
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 1: no cognition, no nothing. You can't deal with arbitrary assertions
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 1: that people make. You have to just call it. That's
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 1: an arbitrary assertion. It's stupid. I'm not even going to
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 1: respond and walk away and tell other people to do
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 1: the same. Ruse. I saw a post on Twitter just
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 1: now of an AI picture mocking Charlie Cook for being assassinated,
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 1: and the majority of the comments are outraged and calling
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 1: for the FBI to get involved over it. So already
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 1: seeing the reality of what you are saying. Now, Yeah,
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 1: I mean FBI getting involved, that's a violation of free speech.
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 1: You can mock. But people being outraged, that's good that
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 1: they're outraged, But asking the FBI. I mean, this is
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 1: the real danger, is that Trump decides to do something
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 1: about the violence. What exactly can you do? I mean,
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 1: how about security people start doing their job and looking
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 1: at roofs. Like the Secret Service screwed up on that
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 1: assassination attempt, Now very similarly was on a roof you
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 1: could be seen on a roof. Why was there in
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 1: Charlie Cookatt's security, their private security? Why was nobody in
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 1: the security looking at the roofs. That's the you know,
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 1: that's that's what needs to be done. Roof check. Have
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 1: somebody thoughtful? Okay, let's see, Thank Youez for the fifty
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 1: Australian dollars. All right, let's go. We've got a bunch
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 1: of questions from Andrew, so will cover them. Yeah, Andrew,
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 1: I always felt uneasy with objectivists like yourself making it
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 1: seem like we need to promote drawings of Muhammad. It's
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 1: not my way to insult other people's gods, even though
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 1: it's nonsense seems gratuitous. Why am I wrong? I mean,
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 1: you're wrong on a number of different levels. One is, oh, wait,
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 1: where do I start. I'm trying to think where to start,
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 1: because I got a lot of these questions when we
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 1: did the cartoons. What was the purpose of showing the cartoons?
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 1: The purpose of showing the cartoons was not to insult
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 1: the gods. Well, it was the purpose of the person
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 1: right doing the cartoons were twofold one. It was to
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 1: show how stupid worshiping a god is. And that's a
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 1: good purpose. And that's what cartoons are for. They're quick, easy,
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 1: you know, quick witted, witty ways in which you can, indeed,
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 1: you know, just make fun of something. And there's nothing
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 1: that suggests that if you make fun of somebody's politics,
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 1: and you make fun of somebody's behavior, and you make
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 1: fun of somebody's I don't know whatever, you shouldn't make
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 1: fun of their religion. So I think join cartoons of
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 1: making fun of religion are great. Now I wouldn't do it.
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 1: I'm not interested in cartoons because they're not intellectual, they're
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 1: not philosophical. It's not my method of If I want
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 1: to attack the Shianny I'm not going to attack them
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 1: through a cartoon, attack them through a book. Working on that.
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 1: But the reason I promoted the Muhammad cartoons, I mean
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 1: literally promoted them and promoted the Charlie hebgro cartoons was
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 1: the second reason the cartoonists drew the Mohammed cartoons, and
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 1: that was to show that there's no free speech, to
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 1: show what happens to shame the West, because it's not
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 1: just cartoons. Europe has taken down paintings of Muhammad because
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 1: you're not allowed to show an image of the prophets.
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 1: So museums all over Europe have taken out down paintings
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 1: if Muhammad was depicted in them. Plays, musicals, operas, books
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 1: have basically mean taken down not by the governments, but
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 1: voluntarily taken down out of fear or out of a
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 1: false respect. And the whole point of the cartoons was
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 1: to sew this is wrong. You should be able to
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 1: express yourself free of fear of these from these people
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 1: and all your Europeans who are doing this. You're betraying
• 1:34:29
  Speaker 1: your culture, you're betraying civilization. So the whole point he
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 1: was to illustrate that, and my point of showing the
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 1: cartoons was they was to say, they're just cartoons. You
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 1: don't have to like them. I don't like some of them.
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 1: They're just cartoons. But you should never be afraid to
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 1: show a cartoon. You should never silence yourself if you
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 1: want to draw a cartoon out of fear. You should
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 1: never be in a situation where your government won't protect
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 1: you from those who threaten your life because you want
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 1: to draw a cartoon, or because you want to write
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 1: a book, or because you want to sing an opera,
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 1: or because you want to make a speech. So I
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 1: wasn't promoting the cartoons or cartoons, although some of them
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 1: were quite clever. The turbine, the one with Muhammad with
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 1: the turbine and a bomb inside of it. Yeah, people,
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 1: that's a very clever cartoon. This is at a time
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 1: of suicide bombings, where people are using Muhammad, his ideology,
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 1: his book to justify walking into crowds and blowing themselves up.
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 1: Why wouldn't you want a cartoon showing that and ridiculing that.
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 1: So what I want to do is show was make
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 1: the point that these needed to be seen because they
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 1: were being banned, because they were being because they were
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 1: being attacked because people are self censoring. So as a
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 1: statement about free speech, not a statement about cartoons. Andrews says,
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 1: the youth to being taught that emotions or tools of cognition,
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 1: that feeling is a criteria of truth. To mistake feelings
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 1: for thought will only exacerbate emotional difficulties and cause more
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 1: potential for violence. Yes, again, be saying this for over
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 1: a decade now. This boils down to elevating emotions about
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 1: reason above reason, educating people to value their emotions above reason,
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 1: the whole idea of microaggressions that the Left was freaked
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 1: out about ten years ago, and offensive speech is all
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 1: about emotions, it's not about reason. If somebody says something
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 1: that offends you, walk away or argue back. But the
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 1: fact that you feel bad does not give you an
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 1: excuse to silence the person. David Alsinho says, who's your
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 1: favorite act and why isn't it John Malkovich? Because it
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 1: isn't John. My favorite actor. Charles Lawton certainly one of
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 1: my favorite actors in modern times. I love Denzel Washington.
• 1:37:24
  Speaker 1: I think he's an excellent actor. So those are two.
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 1: I'm sure it can come up with more. I don't
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 1: have one favorite Andrew. I agree with the value of
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 1: a gut feeling, but being epistemologically responsible, one must never
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 1: automatically trust that one's gut feeling is signaling rational self interest.
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 1: Can you speak to the value of checking your gut? Yeah,
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 1: I mean you should always check your gut, particularly when
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 1: you have time to do it, because if you don't
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 1: have time to do it, you don't do it. You
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 1: have to act in some situations and all you might
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 1: have is the gut feeling, and then you just have
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 1: to act. So it is the case that sometimes you
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 1: don't check the gut because you don't have time to
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 1: check it. But if you do have time, it's always
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 1: important to check the gut feeling because you don't know
• 1:38:13
  Speaker 1: everything that went into it. It's automatic, it's fast, it's quick,
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 1: it hasn't been evaluated. Stepping back and evaluating it is
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 1: always something worth doing. It's what reason requires. If what's
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 1: living a rational life requires living by gut feelings, is
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 1: gonna screw you over. It's not self interested because you'll
• 1:38:34
  Speaker 1: often make mistakes. Some of those gut feelings will be
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 1: based on wrong evaluations, based on emotions that are not
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 1: justifiable in reality. Rez Are you irritated more about people
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 1: like Ben Shapiro or Charlie Cook who defend liberty on
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 1: a false basis of mysticism, or by the left to
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 1: oppose the liberty as such? Do you see one side
• 1:39:02
  Speaker 1: as more dangerous than the other. So, I think you're
• 1:39:05
  Speaker 1: mischaracterizing Ben Shapia and Charlie Cook, and certainly some of
• 1:39:09
  Speaker 1: the worst I don't know Walsh, Matt Walsh, and some
• 1:39:15
  Speaker 1: of these others. I don't consider them defending liberty than not.
• 1:39:22
  Speaker 1: If you're anti abortion, you're not defending liberty. I don't
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 1: care what else you defend. You're not defending liberty. If
• 1:39:34
  Speaker 1: you if you think that I don't know self sacrifice
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 1: and and and uh Jesus on a cross, and the
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 1: morality of Christianity should be taught and taught and required
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 1: by government schools. If you think the thank command it
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 1: should be in every classroom. If you believe that the
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 1: separation church and state should not exist, you're not for liberty.
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 1: So I don't agree with the premis. Now you could
• 1:40:10
  Speaker 1: say some people are better than others. I think Ben
• 1:40:14
  Speaker 1: Shapiro is better than Charlie Cooke in his defense of
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 1: at least economic liberty. I think Ben Shapiro has being consistent.
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 1: Mostly he compromises and he whims out here and there.
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 1: But Charlie Cook gave up on economic liberty and economic
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 1: freedom on capitalism and followed a trumpest line. So is
• 1:40:37
  Speaker 1: he a defendive liberty. No, it's not just that he's
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 1: a bad defendive liberty on the wrong premise. He's not.
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 1: So I think Ben Shapier better than Charlie Cook. I
• 1:40:47
  Speaker 1: ranked them based on how consistent they are in the
• 1:40:49
  Speaker 1: defense of those areas of freedom that we believe in.
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 1: But I don't think that much of the right today
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 1: right now believes in liberty. They don't in what way
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 1: do they believe in liberty? Maggot doesn't believe in liberty.
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 1: So it's not just that the mystics they don't believe
• 1:41:06
  Speaker 1: in liberty. Now. I am irritated more by the right
• 1:41:13
  Speaker 1: than the left, generally speaking, for two reasons. One because
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 1: a lot of people think I'm on the right. A
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 1: lot of people think Iran was on the right. Iran
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 1: considers herself on the right, and I don't want anybody
• 1:41:30
  Speaker 1: to get any sense, even a little bit that that
• 1:41:34
  Speaker 1: is the case. We have nothing in common with these people,
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 1: and I want to make that clear because so many
• 1:41:43
  Speaker 1: people associate with us. Trump's favorite book is The fountain
• 1:41:46
  Speaker 1: Head used some once in a while. Here, you know
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 1: this and this is a Randian, this is this is
• 1:41:52
  Speaker 1: Iran's ideas being implemented. I don't want the You know,
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 1: the left keeps calling Iran fascist, and part of how
• 1:42:01
  Speaker 1: they do that is by associating her with people who
• 1:42:04
  Speaker 1: lean in that direction. I want to keep ironrand away
• 1:42:08
  Speaker 1: from them, and I want to keep Iran's I want
• 1:42:10
  Speaker 1: the public to have two different categories. Iran and the
• 1:42:15
  Speaker 1: rights is separate. So I attack the right more than
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 1: the left because of that. Second, I view the right
• 1:42:25
  Speaker 1: as the biggest threat because I think the left is
• 1:42:32
  Speaker 1: so disintegrated that they can never win. And I don't
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 1: mean win a particular election. People will say, look, Dunny's winning, well,
• 1:42:40
  Speaker 1: sure of course, and they might even win the presidency.
• 1:42:45
  Speaker 1: I mean win, I mean be the final victory because
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 1: I don't think at the end of the day that
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 1: the the American people will tolerate them. But I do
• 1:43:02
  Speaker 1: think the American people are willing to tolerate a right
• 1:43:04
  Speaker 1: wing end game. And again I refer you to lend
• 1:43:09
  Speaker 1: It Peakoff anominous parallels who predicted a fascist America, And
• 1:43:16
  Speaker 1: I refer you to lend It Peakoff in dim Way
• 1:43:20
  Speaker 1: he predicted a religious patriotic flag waving fascist America. I mean,
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 1: so I'm not arguing from authority. I'm just saying, if
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 1: you want to fall the full argument for why the
• 1:43:36
  Speaker 1: right is likely to win and not the left, I
• 1:43:39
  Speaker 1: refer you to both of those books, particularly dim Way.
• 1:43:43
  Speaker 1: I think he makes an incredible argument for it, and
• 1:43:46
  Speaker 1: he makes it which I supported at the time and
• 1:43:49
  Speaker 1: still do. And so I mean, I think Ben Shapiro,
• 1:43:56
  Speaker 1: Charlie Cook and those guys also they were the more
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 1: intelligent people on the rights. I think it falls off
• 1:44:04
  Speaker 1: dramatically in terms of intelligence after that. But they irritate me.
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 1: They would take me because too many people confuse me,
• 1:44:14
  Speaker 1: and because I think they're really, really, really dangerous because
• 1:44:18
  Speaker 1: they think they will actually win. Richard, thank you just
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 1: emailed you. As America had a truly great general since
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 1: Truman fired MacArthur. My father says very positive things about
• 1:44:34
  Speaker 1: Norman schwartzkof gulfh wo was before my time. What about
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 1: betrayus No Patria is terrible, Trius is the opposite a pattern,
• 1:44:44
  Speaker 1: the opposite of MacArthur betrayus. Oh god, he's so bad,
• 1:44:49
  Speaker 1: you know. He he was the guy who came up
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 1: with the strategy of defeating the insurgency in Iraq give
• 1:44:58
  Speaker 1: them cash basically, and by doing so laid the foundations
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 1: for iss He's the guy who developed the entire rules
• 1:45:08
  Speaker 1: of engagement, you know, a way of dealing with insurgencies. Uh.
• 1:45:14
  Speaker 1: He wrote his dissertation on how to apply in a sense,
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 1: how to apply just both theory to insurgencies. Terrible, terrible, terrible.
• 1:45:22
  Speaker 1: He is why the US military cannot win wars. Schwartz
• 1:45:26
  Speaker 1: Cough is probably bad. Probably the closest you're going to
• 1:45:29
  Speaker 1: come to MacArthur. Gulf WO one was very good. It
• 1:45:34
  Speaker 1: was it was a it was very strategically done, It
• 1:45:37
  Speaker 1: was very thought. There was a lot of thinking overwhelming force,
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 1: crush the enemy, move on. And so the closest would
• 1:45:47
  Speaker 1: be schwartz Cough. But I don't know enough about him
• 1:45:50
  Speaker 1: to say how close, Yeah, Richard, The last Roman Republic
• 1:46:05
  Speaker 1: is many fascinating and disturbing parallels with modern America. The
• 1:46:09
  Speaker 1: end did not come about because of a single strong man,
• 1:46:13
  Speaker 1: but a series of many who slowly eroded Rome's institution.
• 1:46:18
  Speaker 1: Trump is no Caesar, but he may be a Sullah. Yeah,
• 1:46:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's absolutely right. It's absolutely right.
• 1:46:29
  Speaker 1: I haven't done a show on this, But what Trump
• 1:46:31
  Speaker 1: is doing is eroding the institutions, eroding what America is,
• 1:46:37
  Speaker 1: eroding what America stands for. What the national Conservatives going
• 1:46:41
  Speaker 1: on and on about America's not an idea, is doing,
• 1:46:44
  Speaker 1: is eroding our confidence in our founding documents. It's eroding
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 1: confidence in the idea of liberty and freedom and preparing
• 1:46:53
  Speaker 1: the stage for Caesar, preparing the stage for a man
• 1:46:58
  Speaker 1: to come and claim the authority of a caesar. And
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 1: whether they I don't think they're doing it purposefully. I
• 1:47:06
  Speaker 1: think they are useful idiots, just as I don't think
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 1: Saloh is doing it purposefully. But it is a great parallel.
• 1:47:14
  Speaker 1: It's a great way to illustrate this. Yes, Trump is
• 1:47:19
  Speaker 1: not the strong man, he's not smart enough, he's not
• 1:47:23
  Speaker 1: ambitious enough politically for that. But he is destroying the
• 1:47:28
  Speaker 1: institutions in a way that creates that as a possibility.
• 1:47:31
  Speaker 1: And he is aided and embedded by many many people,
• 1:47:34
  Speaker 1: including many intellectuals, to achieve that. To achieve that, so
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 1: great powerlel great power. And look, most strongmen only arrive
• 1:47:52
  Speaker 1: after the state has been weakened. The institutions of liberty
• 1:47:56
  Speaker 1: have been weakened so that it's easy for them to
• 1:47:59
  Speaker 1: take them over. I mean, think about Lenin in Russia, right,
• 1:48:02
  Speaker 1: first days of revolution gets rid of the czar, but
• 1:48:07
  Speaker 1: it's replaced by something very weak that is easily toppled
• 1:48:10
  Speaker 1: and easily replaced. Even Hitler doesn't win a majority when
• 1:48:15
  Speaker 1: he's voted in, but they institutions are so eroded, so
• 1:48:19
  Speaker 1: falling apart by that point that he can easily topple
• 1:48:22
  Speaker 1: them and take over and face no opposition in doing it. Now,
• 1:48:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know wrolling a republic history well enough to
• 1:48:34
  Speaker 1: say who Trump is powerl to, But it doesn't really matter.
• 1:48:38
  Speaker 1: It's not the power to any particular person. It's the
• 1:48:41
  Speaker 1: principle that's involved. All Right, we have a lot of
• 1:48:50
  Speaker 1: a lot of questions still to go, and it is
• 1:48:55
  Speaker 1: past midnight, but I will answer them all all right,
• 1:48:59
  Speaker 1: are you going to see Spike Lee's take on colors?
• 1:49:02
  Speaker 1: I was high and low highest to lowest. Yes I'm not.
• 1:49:12
  Speaker 1: I'm not expecting good things, but I'm going to see
• 1:49:15
  Speaker 1: it isn't it with Denzel Washington? I think it's with
• 1:49:18
  Speaker 1: Denzel so yeah. I think he's a great actor. Spike
• 1:49:23
  Speaker 1: Lee's off sometimes an interesting director. The story will be
• 1:49:30
  Speaker 1: turned upside down, I think. Whereas in High Low the
• 1:49:34
  Speaker 1: businessman is a hero, is a hero, is an admirable character,
• 1:49:39
  Speaker 1: here I think he will be made out to be
• 1:49:40
  Speaker 1: a scoundrel. But we'll see. Are you covering what's happening
• 1:49:47
  Speaker 1: in a poll in a show soon? I was going
• 1:49:49
  Speaker 1: to when the Charlie Cook things happened and haven't gotten
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 1: back to it. Yes, I've already done some reading. I'm
• 1:49:56
  Speaker 1: going to do more and I will cover it, particularly
• 1:49:59
  Speaker 1: given the ongoing Thank you Catherine for reminding me not
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 1: you have y'all goh with them. Whoever was questioning Charlie
• 1:50:06
  Speaker 1: at the moment he was shot needs to be spoken to.
• 1:50:08
  Speaker 1: Too much of a coin incidence. He has to write
• 1:50:10
  Speaker 1: gun violence right as he was head No, I mean,
• 1:50:17
  Speaker 1: I mean maybe the shooter heard the question and decided
• 1:50:22
  Speaker 1: that was the moment to shoot. He'd been up on
• 1:50:24
  Speaker 1: the roof for a while. Whitn issue before stopped looking
• 1:50:28
  Speaker 1: for conspiracies. They don't exist. Coincidences coincidences happened all the time,
• 1:50:35
  Speaker 1: all the time, shockingly all the time, and yet there's
• 1:50:40
  Speaker 1: no God, there's no there's no fate, there's no muses,
• 1:50:46
  Speaker 1: and there's no conspiracy. And they have talked to the
• 1:50:49
  Speaker 1: guy who who he last spoke to, and you know
• 1:50:54
  Speaker 1: he's not part of some conspiracy to kill Charlie Cook.
• 1:50:58
  Speaker 1: Pretty pretty confident in that, Liam. It turns out the
• 1:51:03
  Speaker 1: bullet to kill Charlie Cook actually hit him in the
• 1:51:05
  Speaker 1: chest and bounced off his bulletproof vest into his own jugular.
• 1:51:10
  Speaker 1: Is there any way this could have been prevented? I
• 1:51:16
  Speaker 1: don't know. I heard that as well, right, I heard
• 1:51:20
  Speaker 1: that story as well, but I haven't seen it verified,
• 1:51:23
  Speaker 1: so I'm looking for verification. Couldn't be prevented? I really
• 1:51:29
  Speaker 1: don't see how. You know, you could make the bulletproof
• 1:51:34
  Speaker 1: vest soft enough so that the bullet loses a lot
• 1:51:38
  Speaker 1: of its momentum by hitting it. It kind of absorbs
• 1:51:42
  Speaker 1: some of it, but it's still going to ricochet, and
• 1:51:48
  Speaker 1: it's still going to ricochet pretty at a pretty fast thing.
• 1:51:51
  Speaker 1: I think this is if this is the case, If
• 1:51:53
  Speaker 1: what you're saying is the case, it's just a crazy
• 1:51:57
  Speaker 1: fluke that it would ricochet to towards his neck, And
• 1:52:05
  Speaker 1: it makes sense that a sniper would aim for the
• 1:52:10
  Speaker 1: chest particularly, so, I mean, the story about a ricochet
• 1:52:16
  Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense to me, particularly given that
• 1:52:18
  Speaker 1: he's not an assassin. Who is who is aiming? An
• 1:52:21
  Speaker 1: assassin wouldn't aim for the neck. He would aim for
• 1:52:24
  Speaker 1: the forehead. The forehead is a much more present I mean,
• 1:52:27
  Speaker 1: the neck is hard to I mean, you ain't for
• 1:52:30
  Speaker 1: the head. If you're an assassin, if you're just, if
• 1:52:33
  Speaker 1: you're a professional, if you're just somebody who knows how
• 1:52:36
  Speaker 1: he use a gun, you aim for the largest target,
• 1:52:38
  Speaker 1: and the largest target is the chest. And I think
• 1:52:41
  Speaker 1: that's what was it, So this makes sense to me. Otherwise,
• 1:52:44
  Speaker 1: I think he aimed for the chest and he missed,
• 1:52:47
  Speaker 1: and he hit the neck by chance. I don't think
• 1:52:50
  Speaker 1: there's much of a chance that the guy actually aimed
• 1:52:53
  Speaker 1: for the neck. I think that's that would be pretty
• 1:52:56
  Speaker 1: freaky if that was true. Wyatt five six, White House.
• 1:53:03
  Speaker 1: What the hell was calling Charlie an evil immoo powerluster?
• 1:53:07
  Speaker 1: I never called him evil anymore? Is that your automatic
• 1:53:10
  Speaker 1: assumption about anyone who grows a movement? Better? I explained
• 1:53:15
  Speaker 1: everything that I said about Charlie. So you don't want
• 1:53:19
  Speaker 1: to hear what I said, that's fine. You want to
• 1:53:22
  Speaker 1: spew hatred towards me, that's fine. But that's not what
• 1:53:26
  Speaker 1: I said. And the reality is that I knew Charlie.
• 1:53:31
  Speaker 1: I watched his evolution. I listened to what he said.
• 1:53:36
  Speaker 1: What he said was bad. His transition from being an
• 1:53:43
  Speaker 1: advocate of capitalism to being an accolade of Donald Trump
• 1:53:47
  Speaker 1: was immoo. And his snuggling up to the Trumps was
• 1:53:53
  Speaker 1: reflection of powerlust, you know. And that's all fact based.
• 1:54:00
  Speaker 1: It's all something I witnessed firsthand. Knowing Charlie, and I
• 1:54:07
  Speaker 1: admitted from the beginning that I admired him for his
• 1:54:11
  Speaker 1: ability to build a movement. It's sad to me that
• 1:54:15
  Speaker 1: at the point where he became a Trump accolade, he
• 1:54:20
  Speaker 1: pivoted his movement to become, you know, a reflection Omega
• 1:54:25
  Speaker 1: and become and become much more religious than he had
• 1:54:28
  Speaker 1: been when he was younger. So he as he grew older,
• 1:54:34
  Speaker 1: he abandoned a lot of the good ideas he had
• 1:54:37
  Speaker 1: in his youth. He was he became less of a
• 1:54:39
  Speaker 1: pro capitalist and all of that. So you can accuse
• 1:54:42
  Speaker 1: me of whatever you want, it doesn't matter to me.
• 1:54:45
  Speaker 1: But you should reflect on the fact that you're not listening,
• 1:54:49
  Speaker 1: that you can't hear, that you're so you know, so
• 1:54:54
  Speaker 1: motivated by hatred of me, that you're just gonna you're
• 1:54:59
  Speaker 1: just gonna spout nonsense. Right. Charlie Cooke was not Charlie
• 1:55:05
  Speaker 1: Cook as an intellectual, was not a good guy. He
• 1:55:09
  Speaker 1: was not one of the good guys. You can show
• 1:55:13
  Speaker 1: you video after video of his spouting things that are really, really,
• 1:55:19
  Speaker 1: really bad. And he was getting worse, not getting better.
• 1:55:25
  Speaker 1: He was getting worse. And that's just fact. Now, if
• 1:55:33
  Speaker 1: you believe everybody on the right is good and everybody
• 1:55:35
  Speaker 1: left is evil, and you believe there is no such
• 1:55:39
  Speaker 1: thing as a truth, then you know, live with that,
• 1:55:46
  Speaker 1: live with it, all, right, Richard. Should America have gone
• 1:55:56
  Speaker 1: to Bagdad in the First Gulf War? Yes, So, if
• 1:56:04
  Speaker 1: you're gonna have a war, you fight it to win.
• 1:56:07
  Speaker 1: And the only way to win that war was to
• 1:56:09
  Speaker 1: go to Baghdad. And it's a question whether the United
• 1:56:14
  Speaker 1: States should have gone to war, that's an open question.
• 1:56:17
  Speaker 1: Should the United States have gone to war with Saddam
• 1:56:21
  Speaker 1: Hussein for the sake of the kuwaitis in the saudis
• 1:56:27
  Speaker 1: open question. The whole way in which that was war
• 1:56:30
  Speaker 1: done politically was wrong. For example, Israel was not an ally,
• 1:56:35
  Speaker 1: but all these our countries were, and Israel was forced
• 1:56:38
  Speaker 1: not to respond to the barrage of missiles that Saddamose
• 1:56:46
  Speaker 1: launched against Israel during that war, and Israel was forced
• 1:56:49
  Speaker 1: not to respond to that. So there's a lot of
• 1:56:53
  Speaker 1: things wrong with that war. But if you go to war,
• 1:56:57
  Speaker 1: you have to win it. And winning it meant going
• 1:56:59
  Speaker 1: to Baghdad, yes, and that would have changed a lot.
• 1:57:04
  Speaker 1: Go to back then and get out, don't stay and
• 1:57:06
  Speaker 1: build them democracy. Harper Campbell monsters to think that once
• 1:57:11
  Speaker 1: Charlie's kids are old enough, they're going to find the
• 1:57:14
  Speaker 1: video of their father being murdered. Yeah, I mean, but
• 1:57:18
  Speaker 1: you can't. You know, it's I don't know there's any
• 1:57:23
  Speaker 1: way to hide that. But yes, it is truly monstrous,
• 1:57:26
  Speaker 1: and it's truly horrific what happened to James. Notice there
• 1:57:32
  Speaker 1: aren't any school shootings in large cities where despite the
• 1:57:36
  Speaker 1: progressive education, there are a ton of opportunities for kids. Yes,
• 1:57:44
  Speaker 1: I think that's right. I haven't thought about it in
• 1:57:46
  Speaker 1: that way, but yeah, there are very few school shootings.
• 1:57:50
  Speaker 1: So there are school shootings in Colorado very close to
• 1:57:54
  Speaker 1: I don't know if the cities in which they've being
• 1:57:57
  Speaker 1: in Colorado shootings are that far from Denver, but it's
• 1:58:02
  Speaker 1: usually not in Yeah, it's it's it's an interesting phenomena.
• 1:58:09
  Speaker 1: It's got to do with progress or education, but it's
• 1:58:12
  Speaker 1: also got to do with the opportunities this kids faces,
• 1:58:14
  Speaker 1: the culture that they live in, the culture that's around them.
• 1:58:21
  Speaker 1: And I you know, we'll see as we learn more
• 1:58:23
  Speaker 1: about Charlie Cook's killer, who will know more about who
• 1:58:28
  Speaker 1: he is and what he is and what influences affected him.
• 1:58:34
  Speaker 1: Clark Young says, I normally don't like speaking ill of
• 1:58:36
  Speaker 1: the dead, but Charlie was a misogynist, racist, medievalist. I
• 1:58:41
  Speaker 1: didn't say that Clarke said that, right, but in many
• 1:58:44
  Speaker 1: respects that's right. I mean, he certainly was. He suddenly
• 1:58:49
  Speaker 1: expressed racist views periodically. He certainly was a medievalist when
• 1:58:53
  Speaker 1: he came to religion, And I don't know about misogynism,
• 1:58:56
  Speaker 1: and he and he flirted with he flirted with you know,
• 1:58:59
  Speaker 1: anti cement i'ment to them periodically. I saw that as well. So,
• 1:59:03
  Speaker 1: I mean those are things you see you can't unsee
• 1:59:05
  Speaker 1: them because he was killed, and you can't repress them
• 1:59:08
  Speaker 1: because he was killed, and you can't unsee them because
• 1:59:11
  Speaker 1: he's on the right, and because he once was a
• 1:59:14
  Speaker 1: defender of capitalism, and like dying ram, I can't ignore
• 1:59:20
  Speaker 1: the data that I have. Some of you guys can't,
• 1:59:24
  Speaker 1: but I can't. I call it like I see it.
• 1:59:27
  Speaker 1: That's why you're here. I think Michael did Trump suffer
• 1:59:32
  Speaker 1: a minor stroke and they're keeping it secret. It looks
• 1:59:35
  Speaker 1: like his medical problem and sinility are becoming noticeable. I
• 1:59:39
  Speaker 1: don't know. I have no knowledge. I have no reason
• 1:59:42
  Speaker 1: to believe that that is the case. When he does
• 1:59:46
  Speaker 1: press confidence stuff, he looks fine. To me, he looks
• 1:59:49
  Speaker 1: like Trump. Now he is old, he's getting old, he's
• 1:59:53
  Speaker 1: slowing down as he suffered a stroke. I have no
• 1:59:58
  Speaker 1: reasonab believe he has I see all the posts on
• 2:00:01
  Speaker 1: Twitter and everything, But I mean, I think that's totaling mostly.
• 2:00:06
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's real. But we'll see, you know,
• 2:00:11
  Speaker 1: it'll be interesting to get an objective opinion from a cardiologist.
• 2:00:17
  Speaker 1: Linda Quinn. Coode does a great job of Jeue Charlie
• 2:00:21
  Speaker 1: in his writings, novels and poetry and his freedom merchandise,
• 2:00:27
  Speaker 1: especially I am free poem. Yeah, I agree. And and
• 2:00:31
  Speaker 1: if I remember right, you guys published the cartoons. There's
• 2:00:34
  Speaker 1: some forum in which they were published. And uh yeah,
• 2:00:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, you gotta stand up to evil. You gotta
• 2:00:41
  Speaker 1: call it, and you gotta you gotta be a just
• 2:00:44
  Speaker 1: with Charlie bye bye, by speaking and by saying it
• 2:00:48
  Speaker 1: like it is, I like numbers. Maybe AOI should have
• 2:00:53
  Speaker 1: kept the campus clubs. I mean, that's funny. Died. God,
• 2:01:01
  Speaker 1: we tried. The campos up did not die because we
• 2:01:04
  Speaker 1: didn't want them. The campus clubs did not die because
• 2:01:07
  Speaker 1: we didn't want to keep them. The campuses clubs died
• 2:01:10
  Speaker 1: because the students didn't want them. We try to keep
• 2:01:14
  Speaker 1: them around, We tried supporting them, We tried all kinds
• 2:01:16
  Speaker 1: of ways to keep them around, but at some point
• 2:01:22
  Speaker 1: they all fizzled out and died, even the most successful
• 2:01:24
  Speaker 1: ones that Michigan at the University of Texas. They depended
• 2:01:29
  Speaker 1: on a new generation, on one guy, one guy or
• 2:01:32
  Speaker 1: one goal, usually one person to lead them. And at
• 2:01:36
  Speaker 1: some point that one person was not there to do
• 2:01:41
  Speaker 1: the job. And I have no control over that. I
• 2:01:46
  Speaker 1: think it was about the same time as the Internet
• 2:01:48
  Speaker 1: became prevalent. Linda Cordea quoting from Quint you say, neil,
• 2:01:57
  Speaker 1: I stand, you say silence, I speak, you say submit,
• 2:02:02
  Speaker 1: I will not. I am free. Yep, that is the attitude.
• 2:02:07
  Speaker 1: That is just Charlie the Sacred Order of the Nightly
• 2:02:12
  Speaker 1: vela valor. Would you initiate force to save the David
• 2:02:16
  Speaker 1: from vandalism? Yes, how much, whatever was necessary. I mean,
• 2:02:24
  Speaker 1: vandalism is false. It's a destruction of private property. And
• 2:02:29
  Speaker 1: you you you stop it, and just like Sonny broke
• 2:02:33
  Speaker 1: into your house, you would use whatever force was necessary
• 2:02:36
  Speaker 1: to stop the breacon, didn't you say a year ago
• 2:02:46
  Speaker 1: speech which was an apex? Again, you guys are you
• 2:02:48
  Speaker 1: don't listen to what I say? We have more protections
• 2:02:54
  Speaker 1: for free speech, legal protections for free speech. Now. The
• 2:02:57
  Speaker 1: courts are more protective speech free spee each today, as
• 2:03:01
  Speaker 1: of a year ago, suddenly, than they ever have been,
• 2:03:05
  Speaker 1: than they ever have been in American history. We are
• 2:03:08
  Speaker 1: at the appics of the courts protecting free speech. Whether
• 2:03:15
  Speaker 1: that continues or not under the current court, I don't know,
• 2:03:17
  Speaker 1: but that was true a year ago. And now are
• 2:03:21
  Speaker 1: they threats to free speech in terms of individual people
• 2:03:24
  Speaker 1: threatening speech everywhere Muslims, particularly Islam, Yes, absolutely, And in
• 2:03:30
  Speaker 1: Europe free speech is a disaster. We certainly not the appics,
• 2:03:34
  Speaker 1: and they never said that that in Europe with the Epics.
• 2:03:36
  Speaker 1: But in the United States, because of the rulings of
• 2:03:39
  Speaker 1: the Supreme Court over the last thirty forty years, maybe fifty,
• 2:03:44
  Speaker 1: we have more freedom to speak than ever before. And
• 2:03:50
  Speaker 1: on top of that, because of technology, we have today
• 2:03:54
  Speaker 1: more opportunities to speak freely and safely than ever in
• 2:03:59
  Speaker 1: our hereae. And that's because of the Internet. Because what
• 2:04:04
  Speaker 1: you're doing right now in the chat, we have more opportunities,
• 2:04:08
  Speaker 1: we have more news outlets, we have more ways to communicate,
• 2:04:12
  Speaker 1: we have more ways to express ourselves than ever before,
• 2:04:15
  Speaker 1: and those ways are protected by our government. Now. What
• 2:04:21
  Speaker 1: Biden did in support in particularly around and this was
• 2:04:27
  Speaker 1: actually before Biden. It was the Trumpet administration and the
• 2:04:29
  Speaker 1: Biden administration around COVID in telling social media what they
• 2:04:34
  Speaker 1: could and couldn't post, that was a massive violation of
• 2:04:36
  Speaker 1: free speech. And it's and I hope still that at
• 2:04:40
  Speaker 1: some point the Sune Court will will will say it is.
• 2:04:44
  Speaker 1: It's still in the court system. As far as I
• 2:04:46
  Speaker 1: can tell. The lawsuit is still in the court system.
• 2:04:51
  Speaker 1: So I'm hoping that the Serene Court will will say
• 2:04:57
  Speaker 1: that government intervention in what newspapers right and what platforms
• 2:05:03
  Speaker 1: allow on their platform is a violation of free speech.
• 2:05:07
  Speaker 1: And if they do that, we will have more legal
• 2:05:09
  Speaker 1: protections of free speech than ever we have performed. That's
• 2:05:11
  Speaker 1: the sense of which I meant. I never used the
• 2:05:13
  Speaker 1: word apex, not in my vocabulary, but that's the sense
• 2:05:16
  Speaker 1: of which I said we had more free speech, and
• 2:05:18
  Speaker 1: I stand by it. Richard, do you think a decisive
• 2:05:23
  Speaker 1: war against Iran in two thousand and one would could
• 2:05:27
  Speaker 1: have succeeded? Would America have supported it? Would America have
• 2:05:30
  Speaker 1: supported Do you think the US would have benefited from
• 2:05:34
  Speaker 1: not abiding by Muslim law in burials burials? Where so? Yes,
• 2:05:45
  Speaker 1: I do think a decisive war against Iran in two
• 2:05:47
  Speaker 1: thousand and one could have succeeded. I also think you
• 2:05:50
  Speaker 1: could have made the case to American people. They were ready,
• 2:05:53
  Speaker 1: they were willing, that Iran was really the enemy. You
• 2:05:57
  Speaker 1: had to take care of al Qaeda in Afghanistan. But
• 2:06:01
  Speaker 1: if they could convince the American people to go to Iraq,
• 2:06:04
  Speaker 1: which was completely irrelevant to nine to eleven, surely you
• 2:06:07
  Speaker 1: could convince them to go to Iran, and I think
• 2:06:10
  Speaker 1: the whole again, the future of the Middle East would
• 2:06:13
  Speaker 1: have been different. And I think, yeah, I think Americans
• 2:06:16
  Speaker 1: could have supported it if the right arguments would have
• 2:06:18
  Speaker 1: been made. I'm not sure. I'm not for not a
• 2:06:23
  Speaker 1: bibe by Muslim law in burials, I mean all of that.
• 2:06:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, you should be allowed to be buried any
• 2:06:30
  Speaker 1: way you want to be allowed to be buried. So
• 2:06:32
  Speaker 1: I don't see any problem with Muslim burials or any
• 2:06:38
  Speaker 1: private arrangements that you have. I see a problem in
• 2:06:42
  Speaker 1: preachers who preach jihadist ideology, and if we had war
• 2:06:49
  Speaker 1: with jihadism, then they should not be allowed to preach
• 2:06:52
  Speaker 1: the enemy's teachings. But that you have to declare war.
• 2:06:56
  Speaker 1: You have to actually articulate a case. Emil Africa has
• 2:07:02
  Speaker 1: everything you need, resources, young people, et cetera. Do you
• 2:07:06
  Speaker 1: believe that there will be an explosion of innovation and
• 2:07:09
  Speaker 1: progress in Africa only if they adopt freedom, only if
• 2:07:13
  Speaker 1: they adopt capitalism. That's what that's what they're dependent on.
• 2:07:18
  Speaker 1: So again, there's this woman, Margaret something God I had
• 2:07:23
  Speaker 1: her name yesterday or the other day when we talked
• 2:07:25
  Speaker 1: about this. I forget her family name, who's very good
• 2:07:28
  Speaker 1: on this. She's constantly she's constantly advocating for capitalism in Africa,
• 2:07:35
  Speaker 1: and I think if she wins, yes, Africa will be
• 2:07:38
  Speaker 1: capitalist and there'll be an explosion of innovation and progress
• 2:07:41
  Speaker 1: in Africa. Frank, is that an example of modern art?
• 2:07:47
  Speaker 1: Behind you? Also in Spartacus, a senator says Rome is
• 2:07:51
  Speaker 1: out of bread and it's close to panic. What economy
• 2:07:54
  Speaker 1: did they have? No, that's a colde hanger behind me.
• 2:07:59
  Speaker 1: And and that is a can of raid to spay
• 2:08:06
  Speaker 1: on the mosquito, and that is a coat hanger. So no,
• 2:08:09
  Speaker 1: it's not what not I mean the economy of Rome.
• 2:08:14
  Speaker 1: That would be a long explanation, but that had a
• 2:08:17
  Speaker 1: fairly that an economy that had some elements of division
• 2:08:23
  Speaker 1: of labor, a lot of trade, a lot of international
• 2:08:26
  Speaker 1: trade throughout the empire. This is why they built the
• 2:08:31
  Speaker 1: roads for the army, but also for the trade merchants.
• 2:08:39
  Speaker 1: Primitive banks or pretty advanced banks, actually pretty advanced banking,
• 2:08:44
  Speaker 1: so they had a pretty sophisticated economy which started to
• 2:08:48
  Speaker 1: collapse during during the third century and was really collapsing
• 2:08:54
  Speaker 1: by the fifth. And Rome was losing access to to
• 2:08:59
  Speaker 1: we that was being brought in from North Africa as
• 2:09:02
  Speaker 1: the barbarians conquered North Africa. So, I mean, there's a
• 2:09:05
  Speaker 1: lot to be said. But the economy was collapsing for
• 2:09:08
  Speaker 1: variety of reasons leading up to the fall of Rome,
• 2:09:14
  Speaker 1: and the fall of Rome wasn't just one event. But
• 2:09:18
  Speaker 1: Richard said, to clarify regarding burials, I'm in Deo's military
• 2:09:22
  Speaker 1: being required to give Sharia complying burials to enemy combatants.
• 2:09:26
  Speaker 1: Oh well, that's ridiculous. Of course, we shouldn't have done that.
• 2:09:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, that is showing respect to the enemy that
• 2:09:32
  Speaker 1: you just shouldn't imagine burying Nazi soldiers with Nazi burial rights.
• 2:09:40
  Speaker 1: Nobody would ever think of that. You just know, it's
• 2:09:43
  Speaker 1: unthinkable that they should never have done it. It was horrible.
• 2:09:48
  Speaker 1: Richard also says Roman insurance industry was also very sophisticated
• 2:09:52
  Speaker 1: and abled very sophisticated maritime shipping and trade finance. Yeah,
• 2:09:56
  Speaker 1: so trade finance was very developed. Insurance futures contry. Some
• 2:10:00
  Speaker 1: even option contracts can be traced back to They couldn't
• 2:10:04
  Speaker 1: really price them. They didn't have the math, but they
• 2:10:07
  Speaker 1: winged it, and they did well enough by winging it.
• 2:10:16
  Speaker 1: Loan dissenter says, careful with that raid, or you'll get
• 2:10:19
  Speaker 1: accused of mosquito genocide. I'm hoping to get accused of
• 2:10:21
  Speaker 1: the mosquito genocide. It's my golden life. Kim. Thank you
• 2:10:26
  Speaker 1: for being a positive light in the cud chaos. I
• 2:10:28
  Speaker 1: appreciate it. Thank you, Kim. Not everybody sees me as
• 2:10:30
  Speaker 1: that flesh. And how do you explain that they claim
• 2:10:35
  Speaker 1: that the right to bear arms as a Christian value?
• 2:10:38
  Speaker 1: Is that what you meant when you said that the
• 2:10:40
  Speaker 1: right is disintegrated? No, I don't know when I said that.
• 2:10:45
  Speaker 1: I think the right is disintegrated. I can't remember saying that.
• 2:10:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, they make it up. I don't know why
• 2:10:55
  Speaker 1: the right to bay alms is a Christian value. I
• 2:10:57
  Speaker 1: don't know where it comes from, sogn the Tin Commandments,
• 2:11:00
  Speaker 1: son the Bible. Anyway, it's not a New Testament. New
• 2:11:05
  Speaker 1: Testament is a fairly pascifist document, mostly some violence sometimes. No,
• 2:11:12
  Speaker 1: I don't know where any rights, any rights you can
• 2:11:17
  Speaker 1: derive from the from the from Christianity. You kind of
• 2:11:22
  Speaker 1: make it up, which is what they did with natural
• 2:11:23
  Speaker 1: rights history theory. But no, I don't know where it
• 2:11:29
  Speaker 1: comes from. Where they think it comes from exactly. You'd
• 2:11:33
  Speaker 1: have to ask a Christian. Andrew Cook apparently became very religious,
• 2:11:38
  Speaker 1: evoking Christ a lot to his friends and close affiliates. Yes,
• 2:11:41
  Speaker 1: very much, very very very religious, not a little bit.
• 2:11:46
  Speaker 1: Do you think we're past the point as a technological
• 2:11:49
  Speaker 1: modern age of having a real Christian revival. No, I
• 2:11:53
  Speaker 1: think we're not past that point. That's all point of dim.
• 2:11:56
  Speaker 1: The point of dim is no Christian revival is very
• 2:11:59
  Speaker 1: much a possibility. It'll have to be a revice Christianity
• 2:12:04
  Speaker 1: accommodative of the modern world. But yes, i'm i'm, i'm
• 2:12:07
  Speaker 1: I'm I very much think the next Douthoritarianism will be
• 2:12:11
  Speaker 1: driven by a Christian revival. Yeah. Charlie became more and
• 2:12:16
  Speaker 1: more and more religious, is becoming more and more and
• 2:12:20
  Speaker 1: more religious. Irrational, it's being irrational, Immo. Can I say
• 2:12:25
  Speaker 1: therefore they do? Was imol Yes, particularly given the he'd
• 2:12:31
  Speaker 1: red iron Ran. He knew there was an alternative. He
• 2:12:34
  Speaker 1: got sucked in. I mean, he's always religious, but he
• 2:12:37
  Speaker 1: got sucked in more and more and more into religion.
• 2:12:40
  Speaker 1: So I don't know what I said there was untrue. Michael,
• 2:12:46
  Speaker 1: a single strong man didn't destroy Rome but a single
• 2:12:49
  Speaker 1: strong man did destroy Germany and Russia. Not really Again,
• 2:12:53
  Speaker 1: they were both the path was laid before them. The
• 2:12:59
  Speaker 1: path was aid before them. The system had been weakened
• 2:13:03
  Speaker 1: dramatically by the by the final Republic in Germany, and
• 2:13:07
  Speaker 1: by the the I forget his name government that followed
• 2:13:15
  Speaker 1: THESOL after the ZOL was defeated. So no, I don't
• 2:13:19
  Speaker 1: think it's a single strong man at all. That dudeo
• 2:13:24
  Speaker 1: body Gault forbid. You ever get famous enough and get
• 2:13:28
  Speaker 1: taken out? Would it all be worth it for the
• 2:13:31
  Speaker 1: incredible cause you're fighting for. I mean, it wouldn't be
• 2:13:35
  Speaker 1: worth it to me, But I wouldn't do it differently.
• 2:13:40
  Speaker 1: I mean will be the will be the value in life?
• 2:13:44
  Speaker 1: If if, if, if you just folded at the slightest risk,
• 2:13:48
  Speaker 1: if you're not willing to fight for what you believe in.
• 2:13:53
  Speaker 1: I am a fighter. I'm not a folder, Michael. If
• 2:13:58
  Speaker 1: you want to make someone hate, you explain to them
• 2:14:01
  Speaker 1: logically and politely why they are wrong. That's Oscar wild
• 2:14:06
  Speaker 1: Oscar Wilde is a genius. I mean he was unbelievably witty,
• 2:14:10
  Speaker 1: so funny, so amazing. Read Oscar wild Go. This plays
• 2:14:14
  Speaker 1: definitely worthwhile engaging Ragnar. Thank you for the sticker. I
• 2:14:18
  Speaker 1: appreciate it. All right, we are approaching one am, let's
• 2:14:23
  Speaker 1: finish this. Mary Eleene, Book a Moment has been running
• 2:14:27
  Speaker 1: on Broadway and making fun of Mormon religion since twenty eleven. Yeah,
• 2:14:31
  Speaker 1: and it makes fun of the moment. Religion doesn't hold
• 2:14:36
  Speaker 1: back anything. It's one of the funniest things you'll ever see.
• 2:14:40
  Speaker 1: So why are people so concerned about offending Muslims with
• 2:14:43
  Speaker 1: a few cutoons of Muhammad? Because the Muslims express their
• 2:14:50
  Speaker 1: offense by burning down embassies and by killing people, and
• 2:14:54
  Speaker 1: by trying to slaughter you for offending them. If Book
• 2:14:57
  Speaker 1: a Mormon was an Muslim play, people would be killed,
• 2:15:02
  Speaker 1: the theater would be burned down. So that's why they're concerned.
• 2:15:08
  Speaker 1: They're not concerned about offending Christianity or Momonism or Judaism,
• 2:15:12
  Speaker 1: but Islam because the Muslims are violent, which means you
• 2:15:18
  Speaker 1: should offend them. It's all the more reason to offend
• 2:15:21
  Speaker 1: them because they have such things. Skins Andrew. Mystics are
• 2:15:26
  Speaker 1: prone to conspiracy theories. They feel the explanation is right
• 2:15:29
  Speaker 1: and can imagine it is true. The mysticism is ultimately
• 2:15:32
  Speaker 1: emotionalism and vice versa. Their theories a consequence of false epistemology. Absolutely, Look,
• 2:15:38
  Speaker 1: what is the biggest conspiracy theory ever in the history
• 2:15:40
  Speaker 1: of mankind? God? God is the biggest conspiracy theory. So
• 2:15:47
  Speaker 1: mysticism is a conspiracy theory based on no evidence the
• 2:15:51
  Speaker 1: assertion of these facts, so they're very susceptible because of that.
• 2:16:00
  Speaker 1: That's a whole of pistemology. It's an authoritarian pistemology, an
• 2:16:04
  Speaker 1: authoritarian detachment, and a pistemology detached from reality, the fact
• 2:16:08
  Speaker 1: detached from facts. Jacob, I don't have a question right now,
• 2:16:13
  Speaker 1: but I want to thank you for what is a
• 2:16:15
  Speaker 1: rare rational commentary of news. On that note, are there
• 2:16:20
  Speaker 1: any objective shows you would want to give a shout
• 2:16:23
  Speaker 1: out to. I mean, I think that Institute does a
• 2:16:27
  Speaker 1: regular podcast that is definitely worth watching. So I think
• 2:16:33
  Speaker 1: all the stuff coming out of the dim Man Institute
• 2:16:35
  Speaker 1: is excellent, including their podcasts and their YouTube channel. The
• 2:16:38
  Speaker 1: YouTube shows Nicos is doing some good videos, really good
• 2:16:42
  Speaker 1: videos coming out. There'll be more. A number of the
• 2:16:45
  Speaker 1: new intellectuals are putting out much much more content on
• 2:16:48
  Speaker 1: substack on YouTube. You'll see a lot of content coming out.
• 2:16:53
  Speaker 1: You know, Samantha Watkins is putting out doing it as
• 2:16:56
  Speaker 1: a subtack on education, Nikos, as a substack on intellectual
• 2:17:02
  Speaker 1: left and right, you know, analyzing it, Augustina on immigration,
• 2:17:08
  Speaker 1: and they're all gonna do videos and everything else. So
• 2:17:11
  Speaker 1: all those people, plus the core of the Iron Rain Institute,
• 2:17:14
  Speaker 1: anything on card does that is that is really good stuff?
• 2:17:18
  Speaker 1: Or give a shout out to all of that, Nate,
• 2:17:22
  Speaker 1: how do we make the distinction between people who are
• 2:17:24
  Speaker 1: immoal and people who are actually evil? Cook wasn't evil,
• 2:17:30
  Speaker 1: but some people are. Do you think mam Donnie, Bernie
• 2:17:33
  Speaker 1: Aoc are evil? Day two are imo Once you get
• 2:17:39
  Speaker 1: into a position of acting on the immorality, I think
• 2:17:42
  Speaker 1: the guy who shot Charlie Cook is evil. You know,
• 2:17:45
  Speaker 1: when you're taking a life, that is evil. But look,
• 2:17:49
  Speaker 1: the essence of evil is evasion, which is the same
• 2:17:52
  Speaker 1: essens of immorality. It's just a question of the degree.
• 2:17:56
  Speaker 1: I think Madonni, Bernie and are all immoo. They are
• 2:18:00
  Speaker 1: no less, They're no more evil than Charlie Cooke in
• 2:18:03
  Speaker 1: the sense that they all evade. They all irrational, They
• 2:18:07
  Speaker 1: all hold ideas that are that are divorced from reality
• 2:18:10
  Speaker 1: and they teach those ideas, they preach those ideas, they
• 2:18:13
  Speaker 1: advocate for those ideas. It's bad, right, But are they
• 2:18:19
  Speaker 1: evil in the sense of I mean, it's hard to
• 2:18:23
  Speaker 1: know where to drive thelign exactly, Michael. This kid would
• 2:18:30
  Speaker 1: rather spend the rest of his life in jail instead
• 2:18:32
  Speaker 1: of hearing words he doesn't like. He's in for a
• 2:18:35
  Speaker 1: real rude awakening. I don't even think he's that intellectual.
• 2:18:39
  Speaker 1: I think he'd rather spend his life in jail than
• 2:18:41
  Speaker 1: feel unseen in the basement of his parents' home. This
• 2:18:48
  Speaker 1: is more about gaining attention that it is about silencing.
• 2:18:54
  Speaker 1: I think the world interpreted, you know, the implication is
• 2:18:57
  Speaker 1: the silence. Marius. Should we stop differentiating between Islam, Islamism,
• 2:19:03
  Speaker 1: and jihad because one consequencely leads to another. No, I
• 2:19:07
  Speaker 1: do think we should separate them. I think that there's Islam,
• 2:19:12
  Speaker 1: which is a very broad category. But the enemy is
• 2:19:15
  Speaker 1: not Islam as a broad category. The enemy is Islamism, jihadism,
• 2:19:20
  Speaker 1: Islamic totalitarianism, Islamic fascism, however you want to call it.
• 2:19:24
  Speaker 1: It's the it's the part of Islam that wants they
• 2:19:27
  Speaker 1: impose your real law on you, that needs to be opposed,
• 2:19:31
  Speaker 1: and you should go to war with somebody is just
• 2:19:34
  Speaker 1: a Muslim and living his own life and not intervening
• 2:19:38
  Speaker 1: in yours and not arguing for imposing his values on you,
• 2:19:45
  Speaker 1: then that's not the enemy. All right, guys, Thank you,
• 2:19:49
  Speaker 1: thank you, thank you incredibly generous today. That was that
• 2:19:54
  Speaker 1: was amazing, particularly Richard, but there were a number of
• 2:19:57
