  Speaker 1: A lot of it. We of the medal principles, I'll
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: bledo my little self interest and the individual wants.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: This is the show, all right, everybody, welcome to your
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: own book show. On this Thursday, March twenty six.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: The war in Iran continues, I love it.
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: Update for you on that, and we will cover a
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: bunch of other things that are happening in the United
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: States and around the world.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: But yep, thanks for joining.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Don't forget to ask questions, don't forget to support the
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: stick show with stickers.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Thank you Stephen Harper forgetting us going with that. All right.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: So you know this weird negotiations going on between the
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: United States and Iran. Euon says there's no negotiations. The
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: United States says there is. Trump keeps saying.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: They're begging me, begging me for a deal. They want
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: to deal so badly they beg, beg, beg for.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: A deal, and yet the Ranians are saying, no, we're
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: not interested in the deal. There is communication between the
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: two sides that has been confirmed. So Trump's fifteen point
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: plan was sent to the Ranians and the Radians basically
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: came back and said, we're not even going to negotiate
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: this this is way too far from anything. We would
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: agree to come back with something more reasonable and maybe
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: will negotiate. There's still stories about jd Evan's going to
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Pakistan to negotiate.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: I doubt that will happen. I doubt he's gonna go.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Maybe I'll stop buy in India to see his in
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: laws or to see his in law's family. But I'm
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: skeptical about any meetings going on in Pakistan. I mean,
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: the reality is who you're negotiating within you on? I mean,
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: is there one power center? Is they one decision maker?
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Uh? And the Supreme Leader is a wall.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: We have no idea where he is, whether he's even conscious,
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: whether anybody's in communication with him.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: We just don't know.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: He might be speak of the house, they speak of
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: the parliaments. Used to be the guy responding to the
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: US and the Trump claims to be negotiating with But
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: does he have the power in you on?
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Probably not.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: It's probably the head of the islamach revolutionary god quote,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: you know, and he is a real hardliner.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: He will go down.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: He will go down as a jihad He will go
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: down dying, you know, in flames. He's not gonna negotiate
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: a surrender at this point. So yeah, I mean, it's
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: all just a scam. I don't I think it's I
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: think it's Trump making stuff up and then and maybe
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: some moderates Anyan reaching out, but they're not really having
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: the power.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: To implement anything.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: But I think a lot of it is just powered
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: by by by Trump and he wants to be able
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: to say, see, I tried, I negotiated, I tried. They
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: didn't want it, so you know, we'll have to question them.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Stories are right now that that Trump is leaning towards
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: a major ground operation Anyon.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: I don't know what that means. Major ground operation.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: I assume that means taking some of the islands and
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: maybe the coastline, which islands. Whether they really will do
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: the coastline. Coastline is hard, islands are hard. I mean,
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: it's all hard. Want to put troops on the ground.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: But it's not clear, but there is talk about him
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: leaning towards a major ground operation in Iran. He's convinced
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: the country will capitulate. Of course, he was convinced of
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: that weeks ago, so you know, I don't know, and
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: hopefully nobody's trusting Trump's instincts on these things.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: One way of the other. Uh.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: The United States is bombing like crazy basically all the
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: all the Islamic Revolutionary Guards basis along the streets of
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: home wores and.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: The Persian Gulf. Uh. You know, this massive bombardment. Uh.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: This has been going on now for days, but it
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: continues softening up to targets if there is going to
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: be a land invasion, even if they don't, if they
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: take the islands, this these are the basis from which
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: the islands will get support. These are the basis from
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: which they might get artillery fire. So flattening these bases
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: before they put boots on the ground makes complete sense.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: You know, we will see uh.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: Supposedly the tunnels that they that the they used to
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: launch their speedboats are still intact. It'll be interesting to
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: see what the story is there and why they haven't
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: talketed those yet. Maybe they need to be fifty two
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: s over there. Maybe that's the next stage is being
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: the b fifty twos to pummel these tunnels and whatever's
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: been dug up, dug out where they're holding the boats.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: They've got the boats there.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: So.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: That is going on in the meantime, overnight, overnight, the
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: idea of eliminated the top commander of the Uranian Navy.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: I guess if the navy of the Revolutionary God. I
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: don't know if there are two navies anyone, they're two armies,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: but I'm m sure if they're two navies anyway, they
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: killed the head of the Islamic Revolutionary God Navy as
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: well as his the head of the intelligence of there.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: I mean, these people don't know learn. These people are idiots.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: They held a meeting with all the senior navy people
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: came to a meeting.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: It was secret. Nobody knew about it. It was really really secret.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: They had super super you know, what do you call
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: it security over this Israel of course knew exactly when
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: and where it was happening. They had precise intelligence, and
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: they bombed a place and killed them all.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: This was in a bundle a bus. If you remember the.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Map I showed you, bunder our bus is like right
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: in the streets and Foremoes on the Ranian side.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: So where the land goes like that, it's like right
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: right up here.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: It is very very very far away from Israel, unless
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: they're flying overside of Arabia. That would make it closer.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: They haven't been as far as we know. They've been
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: flying over Syria and and maybe Jordan and into Iraq,
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: but maybe Saudis are allowing them to fly. But basically
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: they they made it all the way to bunder our bus.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: This is usually the territory of the US in order
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: to kill him, which is interesting. It really does seem
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: like part of the division of labor in this war
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: is Israel does the assassinations.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Israel takes out the leaders.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: You know, at some point after this was done, it
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: would be an interesting question to ask.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Why that is.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: Is it a legal issue that the United States doesn't
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: want to be perceived as killing political leaders and generals
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: and things like that, and Israel doesn't care. I wonder
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: if that's it is just because a Israel has the
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: intelligence and it's easier for them just to execute on
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: their own intelligence, and maybe they don't even want to
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: share that intelligence with the US. You know, it really
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: would be interesting at some point to find out. But
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: clearly from everything we're seeing.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Every time.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: GC senior person or a regime senior person is killed,
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: the it's with an Israeli bomb from an Israeli a
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: plane that's doing it now.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: Isel is a little.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: Worried because you don't know Trump, right that Trump might
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: end this in the next few days. So they are
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: definitely devoting resources right now to bombing whatever's left to
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: bomb in Iran. So they're devoting more airplanes. They were
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: devoting many airplanes to dealing with Grisbela and Lebanon.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: I think that's slowed down a little bit.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: They want to focus all their efforts on Yuon just
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: in case isabel I can wait, and they're going after
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: everything to a large extent. They want to make sure
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: that the infrastructure of the Iranians have to build missiles
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: is devastated.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: By the way, the same is happening on the US side.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: The Command has been spend the next forty eight hours
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: just going after the Iranians. Any targets you haven't targeted,
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: any targeted that needs to be pummeled again, now's the
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: time to do it, just in case, right, So they're
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: going after anything left in terms of industry, missiles, drones,
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: and remnants of nuclear They are taking out anything that
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: can be used later on to build.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: More of this.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: Right they are, you know, they're attacking. They continues to
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: attack missile depots. They had a problem in the last
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: few days finding the missile launchers and the missiles going
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: to Israel because of weather, there's a significant cloud coverage,
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: whether it's bad over Iran, whether it's cleaning up a
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: little bit, and so they're engaged again in finding those
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: missile launches and going after them. So yeah, you know
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: this is this is how bad it is right now,
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: and you'reon right This is a rumor, And my guess
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: is it's just a rumor because I don't believe this
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: is true. But the rumor is that Israel has been
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: dropping for amplanes, I guess canned fish, cans of canned
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: fish in areas where the bashies or the IRGC soldiers
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: are and they might be hungry, and they're dropping them
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: food and they open the cans, the cans blow up
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: and kill them.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: And I've seen several stories now about exploding canned food
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: an Iran.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: Now I doubt it's true because I don't think Israel
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: would do that, given that some random person and a
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: child could be picking up these and opening I don't
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: think Israel would risk that. But it's funny that people
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: think that is possible, that Israel's, you know, instead of
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: beepers can food, why not? And they're killing off like
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: the besiege and the IRGC part of the rumor, part
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: of it.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: Is good because it emboldens the Iranians maybe to go after.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: These people anyway, who knows. But I don't believe it's true.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: You know, as I said, they mean low flying aircraft
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: all over Iran, in many, many cities. I'm reading at
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: ten different cities targeted assassinations. There was one I saw
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: in Eastefan. We don't know who it was. The again,
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: the navy commander was in was in Bandabash. And so
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: the strike campaign continues, broadens industrial capacity, military infrastructure, maritime assets,
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: command nodes and whatever's left and whatever they can identify.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Look, the generals, the generals.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: Are all hiding in bunkers deep someway, and I think
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: Israel's constantly trying to find those places and do it
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: candidate to attack them. Some of those might need bunker
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: busting bombs that only Americans have, but they're hunting.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: Them down and trying to find them.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: When they bomb the bases, when they bomb the commandic control,
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: when they bomb, they're mostly killing soldiers, right The generals
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: are out with the soldiers, generals the cowards. The generals
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: are hunkering down the hiding, the hiding to the extent
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: that they can. But it's going to be important to
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: get rid of as many of them as possible. In particular,
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: I think at this point, going after the new hat
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: of the IRGC is going to be important. You know,
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: it was official supposedly that the United States asked Israel
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: to take off its assassination list the Foreign Minister and
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: the Speak of the House so that Trump could continue
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: to negotiate with him. He didn't want them killed by
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: the israel LEAs while he's negotiating with him, So they
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: were taking off the list for a while for four days.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: We'll see what happens afterwards.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: They are I think less and important than than getting
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: the hierarchy of the I R g C.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: It would be great if they could find.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: How many Son and kill him uh, the new supreme leader,
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: you know, throw the regime into real panic uh and
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: and into a quandary in terms of.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Who to who to choose next.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: I'd say, you know, my top candidates would be il
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: GC senior people and the mulas like clerics.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: You got to go after the clerics.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: They are the ones who have managed this regime. They're
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: the ones who make it a theocracy. And uh, they're
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: the ones responsible for for all the evils of this regime.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Get rid of the clerics. The senior clerics should all
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: be should all be killed. And uh and then you
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: know them in generals, them in generals.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: All right? What else? Yeah? I mean the U a E.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: Is suggesting suggesting that they were joined the ground operation
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: with the US against Iran. Now, I don't know how
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: good the soldiers are. They've got a couple of one
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: hundred thousand. I think Saudi Arabia has also suggested they
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: might join the ground operation, so you might see UAE
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: and Saudi troops. I doubt that they would be in
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: the first wave. They're not trained.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: I don't think.
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: US forces and their forces have trained together commanding control stuff.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: I don't think they've been the first wave. Maybe they
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: come up afterwards, Maybe they help hold ground once it's taken.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: I don't know. But the fact that they're.
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: Willing to say that they're willing to participate is pretty amazing.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: They're also pretty strong about they will definitely be engaged
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: with with.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: Opening up the Homeost straight.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: They've also said Donald Trump, do not kind of deal
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: with Iran without us. The Gulf State are demanding a
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: seat at the table. They want direct involvement in any agreement.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: And they you know, they are really, really really you know,
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: mad at the Ranians for targeting the civilian infrastructure. They
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: claim that eighty five percent of Uranian attacks hit the
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: golf countries. And they want to be involved, and they
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: don't want what they don't want the nightmare Samaric scenario
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: for the Gulf States Quait Bahrain, Yue, Saudi Arabia, oman Is.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: Trump gives the strait of some Moan's homos.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: To you know, to the.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: So once again here to the Udians, that would be
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: a disaster, that would be they lost the war, right, get.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: To that again. Yue is.
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: Demanding total victory. They're demanding the regime in Iran fall,
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: and they're willing to help make that happen. And yeah,
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: so from the A, the Pentagon is planning a final
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: kind of massive bombing campaign that should be happening right now,
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: maybe maybe today tomorrow. I think the deadline whin is
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: Trump's deadline over I think Saturday, the five day deadline.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know what happens then, does he actually go
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: after the electrical facilities. I don't think he's ready to
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: launch ground offensive this weekend. I think that will probably
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: wait until next week. But I can't be sure. I
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: think they're still, you know, troops moving into the area,
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: but they're definitely going after.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: The Rania is full on.
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, as I said, that's that's that, that is that.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: I mean six urb nations issued a joint statement against
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: Iran today, Saudi Arabia, Qatau quait, I mean Katao is
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: in there right, quait Uae, Bahrain and Jordan. Jordan's not
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: a Gulf state, but it is an ab of state.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: So who's not here? Who's not here? I guess Oman
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: is not there, but but Jordan, Okay. Collectively, they condemned
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: Uranian attacks in the strongest terms. They invoked the UN
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: Charter and Article fifty one's right to self defense. They
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: call that Iranian sleeper cells and risbela link networks operating
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: inside their countries. The statement demands Iraq shut down militia
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: attacks launched from its territory. So a big part of
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: this war has been the Shiai Iranian affiliated militias in
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: ira Uk. The US is just try to decimate them,
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: but they are being being uh launching attacks on the Americans,
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: on some of the Gulf states, on Jordan in an
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: attempt to defend Iran.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: So that that is a that was it's a big deal.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: So they want the Iraqis to clamp down on them
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: and to shut them down. I mean, another real positive
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: of this war could be that those militias are shut
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: down and maybe Iraq can become a normal country.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: That would be good. That'll be good.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Ewan and the meantime is saying even if you come
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: out after the states of Homos, we are not gonna
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: give in, and we're gonna shut down the bob El
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: Mundeb that's the straits of the Red Sea that the
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: Hooties control. We're gonna shut them down. We're gonna get
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: the Hooties involved and they're gonna shut down those straits.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: So far, the Huti is of state silence in terms
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: of involvement. They've spoken in terms of supporting Yvon, but
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: they haven't done anything. So it'll be interesting to see
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: if they actually do get involved. You know, the Woodies
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: are pretty weak. They can't be supplied by the Iranians
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: right now. The US Navy's in between them and Iran.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: Uh. I think that's why they're not participating.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: If the Ranians want them to close the Babbamund streets there,
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: I wonder whether they can do it, and whether a
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: significant bombing campaign by the United States wouldn't just evisuate them.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: And that's what they're afraid of.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: They're they're afraid of of of of another one of
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: those campaigns we talked about the by the way, the
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: guy they killed, who's the head of the navy. Here's
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: the guy overseeing the whole straits. Here's the guy strategizing
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: about how to close the straits and overseeing, you know,
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: the whole the whole straits of Homo's strategy.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: Again.
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's we've talked about that. This is a little
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: bit of context, which is interesting.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: Talked about that all right, just to give you a
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: little bit of context in terms of how this war
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: is going. You know, again, so many negative stories, so
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: much stupidity out there.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: You as winning you on as this.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: In nineteen ninety one, the United States have mastered a
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: huge military force on the Kwaiti border to try to
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: kick to kick, you are out of Quate. You remember
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: Quad invaded, sorry you ack invaded Quait, burnt their off fields, trashed,
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: you know, stole everything, just destroyed the place. And the
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: United States in order to basically defend Quait. You could
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: ask why we were defending quit. That's a different question.
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: But I basically I mastered a huge force, internetional force
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: on the boarder there to try to take out to
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: push the Rockies out, and of course they did that.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: But just to give you a sense.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: Of how that war went on, before any ground operations begun,
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: the United States and Allied Air forces conducted a thirty
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: seven day preparatory air war against the I Rocky forces.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: That was seventeenth of January till the twenty thirty February.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: Thirty seven days, they flew off one hundred thousand sorties
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: dropped in excess of eighty five thousand tons of bombs.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: Right now, note this next statistic, and note how difference
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: this is from the current war. In nineteen ninety one,
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: the American Air Force suffered forty six killed or missing,
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: eight captured. These are pilots, fifty two fixed wing aircraft,
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: and twenty helicopters.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: Lost. That's big numbers.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: Fifty two fixed wing aircraft, thirty two helicopters lost.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: How many in this world? I mean, was it two
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: or three for freendly fire? That's it. That's it.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: The Ranians have not down a single plane, a single helicopter,
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: even though helicopters are now being used in the Straits
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: of Homos together with the.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: With the A ten.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: And not a single US A force ASCID has been lost,
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: which is pretty amazing. And if you look at the Israelis,
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: these Raelis who have to fly long distances to get
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: to you on.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: And have to be refueled on the way.
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: These Raelis who have been doing this day in day
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: out since the war begun and did it for twelve
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: days during June, have lost.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: Exactly and I know this was precision.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: Zero aplanes, zero pilots, zero military personnel at all.
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: I mean, this is such an overwhelming one sided dominance
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: that I mean, the world should be looking at this
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: as saying, WHOA the US and is alt A dominating
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: you on? They're crushing you on. Yes, Iran is still around.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: They haven't capitulated.
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: They're still lobbying missiles blindly into civilian areas. But they've lost.
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: They can't do anything. It is on the United States
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: can keep the status quo and keep going after them
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: for months without losing anybody. Now, Israel wouldn't want that
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: because they're harassing Israel, and we don't like that because
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: the Straits of ws are closed. But those economic issues. Militarily,
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: this is over, was over day one, and it's just
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: more over. And it's one of the most dominant military
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: campaigns in all of human history. And anybody who tells
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: you otherwise, it doesn't know what they're talking about.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: Now, It's true, we've talked about this many many times.
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: They should have been a plan much earlier, implemented much
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: earlier to secure the Straits of Homos, to stop them
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: for blocking it.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: All of that absolutely strategic era.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: But that does not diminish the unbelievable success of the
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: of the US and Israeli military is Now, let's see
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: again if Trump allows this to go all the way
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: and all the way to the ultimate, which is regime
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: change or at least a surrender. You remember when Trump said,
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: at some point, you know, unconditional surrender, that's what he wanted.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: I still want, and now he negotiates I mean, there's
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: a sense in which is fifteen point plan is unconditional surrender.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: But it is interesting how now he's negotiating surrender is
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: not negotiated. Surrender's just surrender. He signed surrender documents. Japanese
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: didn't negotiate, the Germans didn't negotiate. They just surrendered, all right,
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: final point. Just to give you the horror, the sense
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: of horror of this Iranian regime, it appears that the
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: Iranian regime is now lowered the minimum age for participation
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: in war related roles in defense of Iran to twelve
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: years years old. In other words, they will be recruiting
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: children into military activity as young as twelve. Now, this
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: is not new for the Uranians. During the Iran Iran
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: Iraq War, in which a million Iranians lost their lives
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: were killed, many many of those millions million, one million
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: were young kids. Ewan would send these children into battle
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: against the i Wakis, you know, with whatever weapons they had,
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: often into minefields to clear the minefields, basically by killing themselves.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: The kids were convinced that they were martyrs in the
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: name of Allah and they were all going to heaven.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: As a consequence of this.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: I don't think the concept of virgin meant to anything
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: to them, But Heaven they understood. And so Ian has
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: a history, are being quite willing to sacrifice its children,
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: sacrifice it children for the sake of their nation, for
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: the sake of the state, for the sake of whatever.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: Oh God, this is.
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: You know, just so this tweet, this tweet, it's long,
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: but I'll just give you the beginnings of it, just
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: to show you how ridiculous this is. Trump thinks he
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: can solve a clash of ancient civilizations has started more
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: than twenty five hundred years ago. These valleys are Mesopotamians,
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: the Iranians or Indo Europeans. Abram is explicitly from uh
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: which is in Mesopotamia near Bassa, Iraqi. There is no
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: meaningful genetic discontinuity between the people of ancient Mesopotamia and
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: the people who became Canonites, who became Israelites. God who cares.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: What is the relevance of twenty five hundred years ago
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: to today?
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: Nothing?
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: Not as zero, none, none, And this conflict has nothing
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: to do with that. By the way, just as a
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: fun fact, the military leader of Uganda, who is also
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: the son of the President of Uganda, posted on Twitter earlier.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: I think this was yesterday.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: If Israel needs help, the Ugandan brothers are ready to assist.
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: We stand with Israel because we are Christians. The Bible said,
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: blessed are you Israel. So the Ugandans already are ready
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: to march just in case Israel has.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: Is all needs.
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: This is the land of Idi Amin and Tebbe in
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: nineteen seventy six, for those of you who know your history.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: Pretty pretty funny, pretty funny that the Ugandans. I mean,
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: at least somebody likes Israel, certainly not in America. You know,
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: many people in America are not in there. All right,
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: let's see, all right, let us let's move on. Let
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: me just see all right.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: Give me one second. Sorry, there was more like ten seconds.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: But anyway, all right, I think as we speak, or
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: at least earlier today. Put it this way.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: Earlier today, there was there were demonstrations. Actually this is
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: last night. Sorry, last night, there were demonstrations outside city
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: Hall in Philadelphia with masked individuals, some of them might
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: be Muslims, some of them might might not be outside
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: the City Hall in Philadelphia, burning American flags and waving
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: you know, Palestinian flags Hamas flags, Uranian flags. They were
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: also you know, speaking, so you know, I don't know,
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: they're probably I don't know how many people they are,
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: thirty five forty people maybe in this demonstration and media
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: and people opposed to them.
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: But not a lot of people. But anyway, they were
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: chanting or the guy.
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: Of course, they're all masked, right, they're all masked. They're
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: not going to show their faces. I'm sure many of
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: them Muslim, but no. Some of them who I just
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: saw some pictures. Some of them clearly just Americans. Just
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: your kids, right, kids and grandkids standing there, just Americans. Anyway,
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: these people are they're yelling into the microphone for every
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: US soldier who comes back in a casket, whach year?
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: I mean they could be even libertarians fall I know,
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: and are called capitalists who hate American but forever US
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: soldier who comes back in a casket which year? I mean,
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: these are real scumbags. You could be against the war
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: without wanting American chops to die. There they're advocating for.
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: They are chewing, they're chanting for the death of American soldiers.
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: I mean, there were some of this during the Vietnam War,
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: and it was horrible and disgusting then, and it's even
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: more horrible and disgusting now because think about who they're supporting,
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: disupporting Islamist regimes.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: Right in New York.
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: I guess as last night, maybe this is this morning
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: also demonstration Palestinian flags, free Palestine, stuff like that, and
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: then people yelling we support hamas it is right to
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: rebel USA.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: Go to hell, USA, go to Hell. Yeah, I mean,
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: I think there's something about if you're actively calling for
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: the destruction of America and you are on a visa here,
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: I think that's that should be gone. I don't think
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: that's I don't think the First.
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: Amendment would cover you as in, you know, it's not
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: a US citizen and calling for the destruction of America
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: and the support for organization dedicated to this ruction of America.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: I have to ask one of US free speech lawyers
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: what he thinks.
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean, if these are if these are
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: people who are where's ice? Where's ice when you actually
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: need them? Oh, they're at the airports, helping the TSA
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: and arresting people who happened to be in line whose
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: ideas they don't like. Uh about says you can be
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: a capitalist and an anarchist at the same time. Absolutely right,
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: absolutely right. Capitalism requires government.
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: I said it.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: Oh, people are gonna hate me again.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: All right, let's see what else do we have?
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean god, I mean Democrats and Republicans are
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: trying to make a deal over DHS funding so they
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: can hire TSA, not higher, but bring back TSA employees
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: and pay them, pay them salaries.
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: Because right now, right now, by according to the media.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: Now you have to you have to figure out if
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: you believe the media or not. But according to the media,
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: and according to pictures I'm seeing, travelers are facing the
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: longest TSA wait times in history. Now TSA wait times
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: are long and bad anyway. TSA is inefficient anyway, and
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: now they're the longest in history. And why because people
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: are not coming to work because they're not getting paid.
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: I can't blame them. They're not getting paid. Why is
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: anybody at work?
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: They will get paid back paid, but yeah, right now
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: they're not getting paid. Maybe they should go drive uber
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: at least that that way they'll have some money. Asof
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: says he's an anarchist and a capitalist. No, you're not
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: a stuff.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: I hate it. I hate to break it to you.
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: I know this will this will come, this is this
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: is going to be hard for you. But no, you're
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: you're an anarchist. You're not a capitalist. You have no
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: understanding what capitalism is and you don't and I've seen
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: you here post stuff.
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: You're not a capitalist. Anarchist. Yeah, I'll give you that.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: To be a capitalist you have to acknowledge the idea
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: of individual rights and you have to acknowledge that there
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: has to be an entity protecting those individual rights, and
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: anarchists reject that.
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: So you are a anarchist. That's okay. You can be an anarchist.
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: Don't take it too hot. I mean it's almost like
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: being a communist or a fascist or something like that.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: It's really really bad. But you know, it's okay. We'll
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: accept you. You can.
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: You know a lot of people love me, even people
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: who disagree with me. It turns out, yeah, he says,
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: I'm an anarchist and I love you.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: On go figure.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: Anyway, tsa lines longest in history. If you're traveling out there,
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: just just you know, you listen to your on for news,
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: get to the airport really really really early. If you're
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: not a member of Clear, I probably shouldn't say this
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: because this actually goes against my interest. But if you
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: because I don't want more members of Clear, because the
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: moments are clear, the longer the clear lines will be
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: in I'm a Clear member, but you should get TSA pre,
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: get TSA pre, and get clear. It's the only way
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: you're gonna survive travel right now. And indeed, from what
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: I'm reading, a lot of people are signing up for clear.
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: Clear.
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: You get a separate line they and they take you
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: to the front of the TSA line, so you skip
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: whatever line exists. And if you have TSA PRE and Clear,
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: you get to the front of the TSA pre line. Now,
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: in some airports the clear lines are very long. Other
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: airports the clear lines are very short, and some airports,
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: god forbid, don't have a clear line.
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: Stay away from those places.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: Anyway, if you're traveling, beware, like SFO is batter SFO.
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: The lines are not bad. I don't see why you
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: know this is this is everywhere.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: All right, So ICE agents deployed to the airports. But
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: here's the headline, and I think this is true. ICE
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: agent deployed to New York City airports do not appear
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: to help ease TSA lines. Yeah, I mean they have
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: no qualifications. What are they going to do. I mean
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: they're not trained to look at those X rays. They're
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: not trained to screen you.
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: They can look at your ID, but even that, it's
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: just there's nothing that you SA can do.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: Right. So ICE is there, and as somebody said, who's
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: at the.
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: Airport said, haven't seen ICE officers do much beyond look
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: at their phones. Well it's better than look at my phone.
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: I don't want them look at my phone. I don't
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: want them to look at my ID. I don't want them, Yeah,
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: harassing people. Ian Sis SFO has private TSA contracts.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: Wow, So San Francisco crazy insane left to San Francisco
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: has private TSA contracts. I like that everybody should have
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: private TSA contracts, and TSA should be privatized generally, they
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: should be competition anyway, the New York Immigration whatever. You know,
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: I don't believe that their deployment to the airports is
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: anything more than them trying to show that they're trying
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: to help and then potentially trying to do more enforcement.
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: There's nothing really to report that other you know, there's
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: nothing happening.
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: There's just nothing happening.
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: But yeah, Ice is at the airport, So if you're
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: an illegal immigrants, don't go to the airport.
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: Might want to be careful.
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: In the meantime, in Congress, they are trying unsuccessfully to
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: solve the problem. Now, Congress has approved and new head
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: of the DHS, a senator, former Senator Mullin, will be
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: the head of the of the DHS, replacing replacing Nome.
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: Remember Nome, she didn't didn't do too well, and it's
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: the first she was the first one Trump fired and
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: she's been demoted significantly. Anyway, Mullen is coming in during
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: this kind of shut down.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: Sally's not being paid.
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: He's responsible for TSA is responsible for He's gonna have
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: to figure.
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: This out, he's, I guess.
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: At Capitol Hill right now talking to senators trying to
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: bring Republicans and Democrats together. Democrats feel like they've got
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: an issue where they can really leverage and have a
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: little bit of power over Republicans, so they're using it.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: They're demanding reforms to ice Republicans. Some Republicans are willing
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: to compromise, others are not. Some Democrats are willing to compromise,
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: others are not. They'll probably come to a deal where
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: the extremes don't vote for it, but they have enough
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: senators kind of in the middle.
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: Who do.
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: Whether the House will vote for it. I don't know
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: if the House needs to vote for it. I guess
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: it does.
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but but yeah, there is this is
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: this is a big.
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: Deal now trying to figure out how to open this up.
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: It's also going to be interesting to see how Mullin
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: approaches the whole Ice issue. Obviously, no, you know, when
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: crazy and basically mill was running her department for her uh.
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: And we'll see if if Mullin here's a hardline on immigration.
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: So my expectation is nothing much will change except for
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: the optics he might have learned from Nome not to
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: be quite as nutty and not not you know, maybe
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: if an ICE person shoots a citizen, not not to
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: say the citizen was a terrorist before you investigate. Maybe
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: you say we're looking into it, we're examining the situation.
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: We'll have more information for you later, which is standard uh,
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: standard police work stand away in which police spawned.
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: But anyway, we will we will wait.
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: To see how Mullen is as head of department of
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: a homeland security Oh, I closed the window.
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: I didn't want to close. Let's open it up again,
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: all right, that's oh yeah. Talk about agencies in the
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: government that are going through I don't know, problems, problems.
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: The RFK and Health and Human Services HHS. Right now,
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: there's no director of the CDC. There's no as of today.
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: They won't even be an acting director of the CDC.
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: They can't decide on who it should be. The previous
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: director of the CDC left the the the a number
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: of people have left, both people who are associated with
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: make America healthy again have left and people opposed to
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: make America healthy again have left.
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: See, you've got a lot of turmoil.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: The person who is until today acting director of the CDC, J. Batacharya,
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: who is the head of the ni Age, who is
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: you know, relatively sane relative to RFK and some of
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: the people he's brought on, is trying to get some
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: order in it. For example, he said an outrageous thing.
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: Jay by the Chariah said really something outrageous.
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: He said, kids should get a measles vaccine. Maha, Maha
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: went nuts. Oh no, measles vaccine kill they give you.
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: I don't know autism. They destroy humanity. They are the
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: death of all of us. So there's a real battle
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: going on. The Trumpet administration.
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: On the one hand, wants to support our FK because
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: they got good votes from his people, from the Maha crowd,
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: but they also have got other interests. For example, they
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: they passed this law that basically gave what do you
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: call it, a liability shielding from the maker of the
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: weed killer killer g Life for Saate.
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: They give them a shielding from legal liability.
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: I don't think they goverment should do, but anyway, they did,
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: and Maha is freaking out. I mean RFK is freaking
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: out because he's a huge opponent of GLI. For sad
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: Maha is a huge opponent of GLI.
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: For said.
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: Anyway, they are big interest groups, the farmers for example,
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: farming interest groups, big interest groups uninterested in ourf case
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: agenda or interested in opposing it at every turn.
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: And who have a lot of in with Trump.
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: Also, if you remember, Trump is been trying to get
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: Casey means to become a surgeon general, to be appointed
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: surgeon in general. Casey means who I think believes in
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: I think she believes in in in demons. I think
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: she believes in the demons who scratched Tucker Carlson. And
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: she's a wacko, a complete nutcase right all over the
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: place with all kinds of weird, strange ideas.
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: Anyway, as a.
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: Consequence, she probably doesn't have the votes in the Senate
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: to be approved, so they're not taking it to a vote.
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: Vinnie Pasad, the FDA's vaccine chief, has left. Is leaving
• 45:17
  Speaker 2: at the end of April for the second time. He
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: left before came back leaving again. The you know this
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: CDC vaccine Advisory Panel, which RFK completely revamped with all
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: his people. Well, Robert Malone, the anti VAXA, anti covid
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: vax anti vaxxa, who was a Kennedy ally and a
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: very popular among the MAHA nuts, resigned.
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: Resigned yesterday.
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: That is a big That is a big you know,
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: uh move again you know na gative for for for RFK.
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: Anyway, all of this, the CDC, the f d A,
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: all of it is in flux.
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: And uh, RFK is keeping a low profile. We probably
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: haven't seen much of him lately. And yeah, uh it's
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: not going well. It's not going well. R FK is
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: focusing on the his pyramid, you know, the with with
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: the with the steaks and the butter all on top.
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: Uh he's focusing on that uh in in in staying
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: away from kind of the controversial issues around vaccines and
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: other stuff, and Maha is kind of freaking out. And
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: there's nobody running the CDC at this point, and you know,
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: RFK would like certain people to be running it, but
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: it looks like a Trump administration is saying, we probably
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: don't have the votes in Congress for those.
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: People now to really dig deep.
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: Into this, to really understand what's going on at the CDC,
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: at the FDA, generally at Health and Human Services and
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: rfk's insanity.
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: We will have Amish Adulgia Amish adulga on on Monday.
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: I think it's going to be seven pm Eastern Time
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: on Monday to talk about it, so don't miss that interview.
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: Amish is fantastic. We're gonna delve deep into the conditions
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: at the Health and Human Services and how they are
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: undermining undermining medical care in the United States. By the way,
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: we're kind of ten minutes out of our first hour, and.
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: We're thirty two dollars short of our first hour.
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: Goal, So please consider supporting us with anything. I mean,
• 47:44
  Speaker 2: Asaf the anarchist who thinks he's a capitalist, it just
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: did a sticker for.
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: A dollar, and that's great. That's great. I appreciate that.
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: I appreciate that he supports the show in spite of
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: disagreeing with me. Gail, Mary Eleen, and Stephen Happer all
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: have done stickers. Thank you, guys.
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: That really really helps you too, can do a sticker
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: and help us get It's the dollar sign at the
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: bottom of the chat that you can press on that.
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: You can neither ask a question with some dollars or
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: just do a sticker. You can do a sticker from
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: one dollar to five hundred dollars. I appreciate all of them.
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: There is Colleen, Colleen who's knows something about the healthcare system.
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: Colleen emergency room doctor, twenty dollars. Thank you, Colleen. I
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: really appreciate it. All right, let's see where are we, yes, EU.
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: The EU passed some interesting stuff today. They were busy.
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: They've been busy, okay, so the first thing they passed Silvanos.
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: Thank you, really appreciate that. All right, I think we've
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: just made our first hour target, so keep on coming
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: because we need to make that second hour target. We're
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: definitely gonna go into the second hour. The European Parliament
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: has been busy. It voted overwhelmingly to implement the EU
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: US trade deal following months of uncertainty about you know,
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: the tariest threats and Trumps saying yes and no, and
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: maybe I shouldn't do a deal, and you have to buy,
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: you want L and G, you better approve this deal
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: and everything else.
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: They've added a series of safeguards to the deal. Remember
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: the legislation which set twists at fifteen percent into the
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: United States, so it tax US Americans, poor Americans. We're
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: going to be taxed fifteen percent or anything we buy
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: from Europe that's most US good EU goods. Now, that's
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: down from thirty percent, which is what Trump initially threatened,
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: and it's up significantly for what it was before Trump
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: started all this nonsense. In exchange, Europeans going to invest
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: in the US, not clear what that even means. And
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: they will remove all EU.
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: Import duties on US industrial goods. So Europe is going
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: to massively benefit because they're gonna get cheap American stuff.
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: They're gonna get they're gonna pay basically zero tariffs on
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: US industrial goods.
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: Now, if they were smart, they won't do this.
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: If they were smart, they would just unilaterally go to
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: zero tariffs with everybody. But it is true that if
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: they did that their farmers, many of their farmers would
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: go out of business.
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: Is that a bad thing?
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: I'm not convinced they would be inputting food from the US.
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: They'd be inputing food from Africa. That might be a
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: good thing, not a bad thing. And sudinly sutainly deploye
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: resources in Europe for more productive activities. Anyway, they passed
• 50:43
  Speaker 2: US four hundred and seventeen to one hundred and fifty
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: four seventy one abstentions. Trump must be very happy. They
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: will get their leg now as well. They have some
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: outs like they would draw from it. If Trump increases
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: chaps about fifteen percent, or if he introduces new duties
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: and any EU goods, the deal would be halted.
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: And you know.
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: They also have a sunrise clause that means EO tariff
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: productions will only take effect if the US upholds each
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: side of the bargain, including lower tariffs on a fifteen
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: percent on EU products that cantail contain less than fifty
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: percent steel and aluminum, which is what I guess the
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: deal is about. Anyway, that was a bill number one,
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: not very controversial, but it's done, and I think again
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: the Trumpet administration must be very happy about that. The
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: second one, much more controversial within Europe, passed by a
• 51:40
  Speaker 2: smaller margin, but still a big margin, and that is
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: a tough the toughest in EU history migration bill that
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: involves detention and deportation by a vote of three hundred
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: and eighty nine to two hundred and six. The EU
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: is reading the tea leaves of how voters, of what
• 52:02
  Speaker 2: voters are demanding. They are authorizing immediate negotiations on new
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: return regulations. It will create return hubs outside the EU
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: where people can be detained for up to twenty five
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: months or even more than that, return orders that work
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: across the whole Union, and deportations to safe countries even
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: if the person never lived there. It's the hardest crackdown
• 52:29
  Speaker 2: on irregular migration Europe has ever passed, of illegal migration
• 52:34
  Speaker 2: EU as ever passed. It's not law yet. There's still
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: going to be negotiations with the Council. I guess, but
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: it does seem like even the EU is paying attention
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: to what its voters are demanding, and the voters are
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: demanding to kick out the illegal immigrants, to deport them all.
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: Still no principle, no guidance of what kind of immigration is. Okay,
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: no real immigration policy, but deporting, you know, deporting ilegals
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: is very very popular, and it's.
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: It's it's, it's it's gonna, it's gonna happen again.
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: The whole world to adopt the Irn Brook plan for
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: legal immigration, that is, anybody can find a job, welcome,
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: all right. Yeah, DEM's app up to the crazy stuff again.
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: Uh. Senator Uh.
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative of Alexander Occasio QUOTEZ pushing
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: a bill.
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: It's now in committee to pause the construction and expansion
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: of AI centers all over the United States.
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: Just stop it.
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: To quote Okasio QUOTEZ. Aoc our bills learn from a
• 54:10
  Speaker 2: lack of regulation following the similar rise regarding the Internet,
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: and demands a new approach to AI, one that protects
• 54:17
  Speaker 2: American people from big texts, egregious overreach, one that sent
• 54:22
  Speaker 2: us prosperity for many for the many over the exhorbitant
• 54:25
  Speaker 2: profits for the few. Bernie Sander says, So, I think
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: in a sane world what happens is the leadership of
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: the United States sits down with the leadership of China
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: and the leadership around the world to work together so
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: that we don't go over the edge and create a
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: technology which could perhaps destroy humanity. Okay, so this is
• 54:47
  Speaker 2: the panic over AI bills that are basically where they
• 54:51
  Speaker 2: want to limit the construction of AI data centers. Of course,
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: the only real opposition they're getting is but what about
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: the Chinese? Nothing about it's nothing about it's not of
• 55:01
  Speaker 2: your business, nothing about technology.
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: It's about but what about the Chinese? The Chinese will
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: gain an advantage that better the bigger that was fet
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: Fetterman is very against this and pushed back on this,
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: and he said, it's a policy proposal as China first.
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: But is that really the issue? Isn't it the issue
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: of freedom anyway?
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: The demanding stopping it all until there is proper regulation,
• 55:28
  Speaker 2: big tax, proper regulation of AI. The bills, I guess
• 55:35
  Speaker 2: in the Judiciary committee, you know, and and uh so,
• 55:41
  Speaker 2: so we will see where it happens. Now there's an
• 55:45
  Speaker 2: alternative bill pushed by Republicans, which is called Protect American
• 55:50
  Speaker 2: AI Act, which which is a proposal aimed at easing
• 55:55
  Speaker 2: legal lends legal restrictions for AI data center So this
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: want a building encouraging the building of data centers. Protect
• 56:04
  Speaker 2: America AI Act Data Centers permits would remain in place
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: even when environmental review for the projects are challenged by litigation.
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: We'll see if that passes.
• 56:15
  Speaker 2: Remember, a lot of people a lot, Yes, skuy Net's
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: gonna kill us all.
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: A lot of people on the right hate AI.
• 56:27
  Speaker 2: Like Bannon is very anti I wouldn't be surprised if
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: Tucker cass is very anti I. I think MAGA generally
• 56:34
  Speaker 2: is not pro AI. So while some in Congress, some
• 56:38
  Speaker 2: Republicans in Congress might be, it does not go well
• 56:42
  Speaker 2: with with the with Mega supporters. And indeed, on this
• 56:46
  Speaker 2: Sanders and AOC might be more in line with Mega
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: supporters than Trump.
• 56:54
  Speaker 3: So we will see a new Trump statement dropped. I'm
• 56:58
  Speaker 3: seeing a new Trump statement. Let's take a look if
• 57:01
  Speaker 3: we can find a new Trump statement. I don't look
• 57:05
  Speaker 3: at truth socials.
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: Somebody would have had to somebody would have had to
• 57:11
  Speaker 2: copy paste it onto.
• 57:12
  Speaker 3: Here let's I don't see it, uh, Trump, that's not new,
• 57:26
  Speaker 3: that's not new.
• 57:27
  Speaker 2: Okay, maybe this is it. You know, let's say hours ago.
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: Let's say hours ago.
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: I don't see any new statement from Trump. Maybe maybe maybe.
• 57:42
  Speaker 2: Uh maybe it can help me out, tell me what
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: it's about. Something here about stopping operations eight hours ago.
• 58:06
  Speaker 2: Does look like something has happened in terms of pausing
• 58:09
  Speaker 2: strikes on Iranian pop plans for another ten days. The
• 58:15
  Speaker 2: bond market is flashing red ten yet note is up
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: to four point four two percent.
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's high. That's very high. Mortgage rates up seven
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: month highs. And there's a consequence Trump is negotiating again,
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: that is, he's pausing strikes an Iranian pop plans for
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: another ten days. I mean, it's clear he.
• 58:41
  Speaker 2: Doesn't want to strike the pop plans and he's looking
• 58:43
  Speaker 2: for excuses, right, He's looking for excuses.
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 58:50
  Speaker 2: Another funny Democratic story Californium. This, California has governor elections
• 58:57
  Speaker 2: this year. Newsom is out and he's going to run
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: for president and they're going to elect a governor. And
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: California has open primaries. So the primary is coming up,
• 59:09
  Speaker 2: and in the primary, anybody can run right, anybody, anybody
• 59:15
  Speaker 2: can run, and so you have Democrats and Republicans all
• 59:21
  Speaker 2: running in the same primary, and then the top two
• 59:23
  Speaker 2: vote getters get to run in the election against one another.
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: And you would expect everybody would expect that.
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: I mean it's California, right, So everybody.
• 59:36
  Speaker 2: Would expect that the top two candidates will be Democrats,
• 59:39
  Speaker 2: and Californians will have a choice between two Democrats to
• 59:42
  Speaker 2: choose governor.
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: Who they gonna will be two Democrats. But latest polls
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: are not showing that. The latest polls is showing the
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: two Republicans, Steve Hilton and Chad Bianco a leading the field,
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: I mean not with a lot of votes, but the
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: leading in field sixteen percent for Hilton, fourteen percent for Bianco.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: Then you've got three Democrats. Porter, I hate Porter. If
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: she you know, if she's governor of California, that would
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 2: guarantee I never go back to California. She is anyway, Porter,
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 2: Stayer and Storewell, right, those three all have ten percent each.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: See how it breaks down, right, And then there's a
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 2: bunch of.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 1: Other, right, other.
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 2: People running like Javia Besserra and Antonio Fila Guga Goosa
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 2: and uh Toni Thomond and some others.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: They've all got single digits. Although I'm surprised you would
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: think that via Rogosa was the way of New York
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: would be more popular, or even Bessera, who is Attorney
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: General is pretty well known in California. I'm surprised they
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: don't have more votes.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: But so you've got a big Democratic field, all the
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 2: votes are splintered, and the top.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: Two of Republicans I've never beautiful.
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 2: Wouldn't it beautiful if two Republicans together don't come any
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: We're close to fifty percent, But because the biggest vote
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: getters at the consequence of that is that we have
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 2: a race between two Republicans, and a Republican becomes the
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 2: governor of California. That would be pretty wild and a
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 2: lot of fun. I mean, basically gridlock. Sacraromento has a
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 2: super majority Democrats. It would be complete goodlock. It would
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 2: be amazing, so much fun. I would love to see that.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 2: Although in the poll twenty four percent undecided, so this
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 2: could go anyway. I mean, could go anyway. I mean,
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 2: I just hope of all of this. My only hope
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 2: is that Porter is not on the ballot.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: I hated her.
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 2: She was that congresswoman who always brought out the little
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 2: whiteboard and harassed CEOs or harassed her betters.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so that is going on California. We'll watch that
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: election closely and uh and see what happens. I mean,
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: I thought I commented a little bit more about Pika. Pika.
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: Piker said his name Pika visit to Cuba.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 2: I read an articulet about this, and a number of
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 2: different things about this that are interesting. Uh So there's
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 2: a there's an akahasan Pika who's a woke progressive streamer.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, we'll talk about a streamer with millions, millions.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: He has millions followers, as you can tell, a little
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: jealous millions of followers.
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 2: And uh, you know, he's a socialist. He's worse than
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 2: you know, He's worse than just an avid socialist. I mean,
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 2: he's he's a real nihilistic far left burn it all down, horrific.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: Human being, evil is what i'd say.
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 2: Anyway, he went to Cuba on a humanitarian mission with
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 2: a bunch of other progressives.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 1: They all went over there.
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 2: Him and Ila Omar's daughter and a bunch of others
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 2: were all there, you know, and there's a there's an
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 2: article in the Daily Mail about this, and you know,
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 2: here's what it says, will Progressive stream A Hustan Pica
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 2: wears thirteen hundred dollars, caught your glasses six hundred and
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 2: ninety dollars short while while staying in five star hotel
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 2: during humanitarian trip to Cuba, where average and your and
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 2: your salary is two hundred dollars. Now, all of that
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 2: is right, and the article goes into a lot of
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 2: description about the shirt and the glasses, what he's wearing,
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 2: and and all these other people and where they stayed,
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 2: and and how these are hypocrites, these are these are
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: these are rich socialists? And and how how howff just said,
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 2: I'm I'm nihilist. Well, if you're nihilistic, then you're certainly
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 2: not a capitalist. Those two are in direct contradiction to
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: one another. So you can be a nihilistic anarchist, and
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: that is one hundred percent compatible. I think anarchism is nihilism,
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 2: but it's one hundred percent incompatible with capitalism. So sorry,
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 2: but you can have to rethink what you are anyway,
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 2: A sunpike up and all these other people they go there,
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 2: and and what is.
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 1: The criticism, right, The criticism.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: Is that the hypocrites, they're rich, they stay in nice hotels,
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 2: they wear nice clothes, they were expensive glasses while they're
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 2: going and I don't know, dolding.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: Out food to the poor in Cuba.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 2: They also met with president the President of Cuba in
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 2: his palace and other delegates, and they traveled in a
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 2: conditioned buses, which of course the masses in Cuba don't
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 2: have access to. And all of this and and of
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: course they're demonstrating the fact that the United States is
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 2: not allowing oil to come into the island and it's
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 2: the United States' fault that, you know, Cuba is support.
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: Now here's the thing. I mean, almost everybody's a hypocrite.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 2: Hypocrisy is not a serious argument about anything, Like, yeah,
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 2: hypocrisy is bad, but yeah, what's just that Sun Pike
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 2: up be criticized for.
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 1: He should be criticized for being an advocate of a
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: murderous authoritarian, not authoritarian, totalitarian regime that enslaves its own people,
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: that imprisons them for what they think and what they
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: say and what they write, that has held their people
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: in poverty for decades now, denied their rights at every turn.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 2: Associated themselves with the worst, most murderous regimes on the planet.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's what Hassan Piker should be criticized for.
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 2: For being a socialist and for supporting socialism, and for
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 2: supporting socialists communist regimes out there, for supporting thugs, murderous thugs,
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 2: people who destroy their own countries, who use force against
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 2: their own people, who kill and imprison their own people.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 1: That's what these demonstrators should.
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 2: Be criticized for, not for them how expensive they glasses are.
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 1: Who the f I don't care what short he wore.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 2: If he'd gone in rags, if he'd taken on one
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 2: of those sacks from the Middle Ages that itches and scratches,
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, I would have enjoyed it a little bit,
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 2: but it wouldn't have made any difference. The guy is
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 2: a monster, not because he's rich and he flaunts it.
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 2: He's a monster because he advocates for an ideology that
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: is a monstrous ideology, and he knows it. He advocates
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 2: for any ideology communism that has killed tens of millions
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 2: of people everywhere to be tried. He's supporting a regime
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 2: that is massively oppressing its people. That's why he's a monster,
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 2: and the fact that he's an ypocrit. Yeah, of course
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 2: he's anypocrit. Most of socialists I know are hypocrits. I mean,
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 2: they're very, very very very.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 1: Few socialists in the West who act like socialists live
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 1: like socialists. They almost all live like capitalists, rich capitalists,
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: you know, armchair communists, disgusting human beings. Again, not because
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: they're armchin, not because they hypocrites, but because of their
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: ideology that they hold. And I remember, I remember when
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: Sonhiker was really really criticized. People were super upset because
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: a son Pika was shocking his dog, using a collar
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 1: to shock his dog. And yeah, that's pretty nasty, but
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: that's nothing. Hassan Pika supports Hamas, which raped and murdered
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: and pillaged and slatted twelve hundred Is Israelis, burnt babies,
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 1: killed children in front of their parents, killed parents in
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: front of their children. That eh, nobridguilt. But he shocked
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: his dog, Now, that is beyond the pair heshypocrite, He
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: want expensive short, That is beyond the paiple. Give me
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 1: a frigging break.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 2: The guy is a monster because of the ideas he preaches.
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: He's a monster, because of the support he provides to
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 2: monstrous people, monstrous ideologies, monstrous actions. He has blood on
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 2: his hands because he supports the people who are slitting throats,
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 2: because he supports the regien that is imprisoning their people,
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 2: because he supports the regen that shot young women on
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 2: the streets in Yuan because they showed a little bit
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 2: of hair. That's why he's an evil dude. He's not
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 2: a I mean, he's a hypocrite who cares.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 1: So when we go after the bad guys, go after
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 1: and though it's important, go after him for about what
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: mad go after them about the things that.
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 2: They're really evil on. All right, that's my rant on
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 2: how signpack. I have a feeling Christian is going to
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 2: make that inter separate video.
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 1: All right, Um, let's see.

• 1:11:22
  Speaker 2: of backchecking and backchecking, backchecking and getting out of it.
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 2: He'll deploy ground troops before he attacks the pop plans.
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 2: But he can't say, whoops, I made a mistake. Sorry,

  Speaker 2: average I algorithm fifty dollars thank two fifty dollars questions,
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 2: or it's one question with two parts.
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 1: Thank you one hundred dollars.
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 2: Really really really appreciate it. Come on, guys, you should,
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 2: you should step up. Not you have ay algorithm is
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 2: doing one hundred dollars here. Since there's a huge middle
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 2: upper middle class in the United States, does that level
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 2: of autonomy and prosperity cultivate a certain level of selfishness
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 2: and assertiveness that doesn't need to be derived from an
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 2: intellectual source like a think tank.
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 2: People take pride in their assets and their freedom to
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 2: use them. They don't want government pushing them around or
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 2: taking their stuff away. Does the presence of abundance in
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 2: private property inculcate selfishness subconsciously implicitly.
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, no.
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 2: I mean, to some extent, people like to spend their money,
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 2: and they spend them on selfish activities and selfish values.
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 2: But you know, the upper middle class and the middle
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 2: class to vote democratic. They tend to vote for higher taxes.
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 2: Not just democratic interns of presidential elections, they tend to
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 2: vote Democratic in.
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 1: State elections. And you can see how the states are
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 1: raising taxes in the upper middle class. Certainly so certainly
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 1: politically they don't. And a lot of it has to
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 1: do with the fact, then, in spite of the fact.
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 2: That they go out there and spend their money in
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 2: a kind of selfish way.
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 1: And the fact is they go out they make money,
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 1: arguably in.
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 2: A selfish way, they feel guilty for it. They don't
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 2: challenge the actual morality involved. They don't challenge the altruism
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 2: at the core of it.
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 1: And the consequence of that, the consequence of the fact
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 1: that they're not challenging any of that, is that they
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 1: feel guilty for being selfish in this one realm of life.
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 2: And in order to appease the guilt, they get involved
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 2: in leftist causes or in right wing causes. But they're
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 2: very involved in redistribution of wealth, and they have no
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 2: problems with high taxes. And you know that they're likely
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 2: to live in New York and in San Francisco and
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 2: in uh Los Angeles, and a lot of the population
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 2: in those places are upper middle class, and they vote
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 2: to perpetuate the leftist agenda that's in those places.
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 1: So no, selfishness does not spend.
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 2: Selfishness is not natural, and selfishness is certainly not a
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 2: feature of wealth. And an appreciation for private property does
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 2: not come from having it.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 1: It comes from understanding where it comes from.
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 2: It comes from accepting the idea of individual rights, which
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 2: comes from the accepting of an idea that your life
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 2: is your central value. Your life is the standard by
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 2: which all other values are measured.
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 1: Your life is what matters.
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 2: And that they don't have because that they can only
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 2: get from the intellectuals. People don't hold ideas because of
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 2: money or because of material things.
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 1: They hold ideas.
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 2: That they absorb from the culture, or they might think
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 2: of them themselves, so they might read them book. But
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 2: ultimately it comes from the people who generate ideas, the
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 2: people who generate or communicate ideas of the intellectuals. And
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 2: it's therefore this the intellectuals, the intellectuals who.
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 1: Shape the culture.
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 2: And if the intellectuals are collectivists and ultruists, the culture
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 2: is going to be that even among the rich, even
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 2: among the middle class and the upper middle class.
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: Now, they might not go all in, they might not.
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 2: Completely, you know, they might not be willing to be
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 2: socialists right completely. But at the same time, they're not
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 2: exactly capitalists, and they're certainly not e ruists, if you
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 2: understand the full meaning of that word. So no, I
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 2: talked about a sense of life that is a kind
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 2: of self interested sense of life, if you will, a
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 2: selfish sense of life that manifest itself in a certain
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 2: level of selfishness. But that is only at a very
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 2: thin layer, and it's only about certain issues in certain regards,
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 2: and maybe it prevents the extreme. It's one of the
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 2: reasons maybe America will never be socialist all out. But
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 2: it's pretty bad today.
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 1: And these people are not not fighting against that, they're
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: not advocating against that, they're not voting against that, and
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 1: to some extent, they're willing to have government push them around.
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 1: How many of them were pro lockdowns. Quite a few,
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 1: even though they had the money to isolate themselves to
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 1: go anyway, they wanted.
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 2: Thank you, not to you have a jogorithm. Thank you
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 2: for the questions and thank you for the one hundred dollars.
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 2: Really appreciate that.
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 1: All Right, anybody know where Andrew is?
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 2: You know, I know he said he was going to
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 2: cut back on super chats, but he's kind of disappeared.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: I'm worried about Andrew.
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 2: Do you remember Andrew asked questions about a lot, about
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 2: these questions about altruism and how it works.
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 1: I haven't seen him around in weeks now. Worried.
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's not vacation, maybe he's taking a break from
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 2: the iron Bookshew. Do teachers care more about their pensions
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 2: and job security than justice when it comes to grading students.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 2: I've heard many teachers saying they pass failing students just to.
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: Avoid repercussions from administration. Yeah. I think that's absolutely right.
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 2: I think a lot of teachers, sadly, because of the
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 2: system and the way it's run, they care more about
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 2: their peers. They care more about the administrators. They care
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 2: more about hassles. Teaching is hard, it's not easy, and
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 2: they care are more about that then about their students.
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 1: Not just about justice. It's about students. It's about the
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 1: quality of their teaching. Do they care that much about
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 1: the quality of the teaching.
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 2: And if teachers cared, for example, about teaching how people
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 2: how to read, they literally cared about teaching reading.
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 1: They'd all be using phonics. But they don't.
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 2: They want to be cool, They want to do the
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 2: latest greatest thing. And if the latest greatest thing doesn't
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 2: result in their kids learning how to read, it must
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 2: be the kid's fault. So no, a lot of different
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 2: pressures on teachers. It doesn't seem like. No again, not
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 2: all teachers. They are excellent teachers out there. They're teachers
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 2: who care.
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 1: A great amount. They're all kinds of teachers.
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 2: But a lot of the teachers, unfortunately, and then unionized
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 2: government school arena, you know, just you know, they're not
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 2: there for the students, unfortunately, or maybe they started out
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 2: idealistically being for the students, and then you know, it
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 2: wore them down. The bureaucracy, the administration, the irrationality wore
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 2: them down. Author a two part question. Partly, when I
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 2: saw a video of a terrorist attack in Israel where
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 2: there was an active shooter in a roadway and the
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 2: taxi driver took time to help an elderly woman out
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 2: of the back of his car to escape the gunfire.
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 2: Was this an altruistic act. Should he have just ran
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 2: and left the woman behind. I you know, not necessarily right.
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know exactly how risky it was.
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 2: I don't know exactly what the level of this was.
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 2: But look, I mean the two aspects here.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 1: One is a general benevolent towards towards people and you know,
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 1: helping people out in the face of evil and not
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 1: letting evil win by giving them easy targets to shoot at.
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 2: And then there's a second aspect of it, which is
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 2: it's his taxi she in a sense, when you get
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 2: into somebody else's car in a taxi or uber, you're
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 2: in some respects under their care. I think he probably
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 2: had a genuine sense of pride in his own profession
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 2: taking care of his passengers, not just abandoning a passenger
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 2: in the face of of something gone wrong.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: I think it comes to a place of.
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 2: Pride rather than a place of as altruism and sacrifice.
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 2: Now it could be altruistic, I mean, Israeli is a
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 2: well known sometimes being altruistic, but it doesn't necessarily I
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 2: can think of it as being a heroic act of
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 2: pride and of caring and of professional pride.
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: Like, it wasn't that he.
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 2: Ran in from the side from the sidewalk and opened
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 2: the door and guided her out in the face of fire.
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 2: It was his taxi he had stopped, he was getting out.
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, it makes sense that he would help the
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 2: passenger that he had taken on the ride. Again, I
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 2: think it's it takes a lot of coverage to do that,
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 2: But I don't think it has to be altruistic.
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 1: Thank you, ARTHURM. Hapa Campbell.
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 2: Since objectivism is not on most people's menu, is narcissism
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 2: the only psychological defense against altruism.
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 1: I think it's certainly one of the psychological defenses.
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 2: I mean, others are nihilism, and you know, I wouldn't
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 2: call it a defense because it's worse than altruism, right,
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure what's worse, right, And a lot of
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 2: people manage to live their lives with altruism compartmentalized, compartmentalized.
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 1: So it's not the case.
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 2: That you have to become a narcissist, you know, to
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 2: put a side objectivism. If you don't want to be
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 2: an altruism, you just you just have to say, Okay,
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 2: I don't know what the right morality is I know
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 2: altruism is wrong. I don't want to sacrifice myself. I'm
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 2: also don't want to be anarcissist. That kind of sucks,
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 2: and I don't want to exploit other people and I
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 2: and I don't hate the world, so I'll just wing it.
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 1: That's much more understandable.
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 2: Narcissism is a real self destructive ideology. So while it's
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 2: a an escape from altruism, it's a it's it's uh,
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 2: you know, jumping from the fire into the firepans, So
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 2: it's it doesn't it doesn't it's not going to save you.
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 2: It's it's gonna make you miserable and it's going to
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 2: destroy you. In the same with nihilism, the same with
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 2: all the seeming alternatives.
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 1: Style to it, Max Max sas thanks for keeping me informed.
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 1: You're on.
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 2: Please keep doing Tucker calls and rage bait segments. All right,
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 2: I've been given permission to do Tucker Callson segments. Yeah,
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 2: you will get many Tucker Callson segments. Happy to do it.
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Max, really appreciate it. Author Again, thank you author.
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 2: You have a very non judgmental view when it comes
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 2: to suicide. You believe it's completely the individual's choice and
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 2: shouldn't be held against him for deciding to exit. But
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 2: is suicide even more ever immodeling your you.
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, if.
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 2: It involves evasion, if it involves irrationality, if you're giving
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 2: up a life for no good reason, that is, you
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 2: want to live but you're too lazy to live, or
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 2: you're evading, or you're then yeah, yeah, suicide is not
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 2: a good thing, right, So you know.
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 1: I don't I don't think.
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 2: But the two options here, one is if life is
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 2: really unbearable, in suicide is fine. And the second alternative
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 2: is you've literally chosen not to live. You made that
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 2: fundamental choice deep down, not because of evasion, not because
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 2: of anything else, You just chose not to live.
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 1: Then it's pre morale, it's pre mobl werall.
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 2: The only applies after you make the choice to live. Now,
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 2: let's say you make the choice to live and then
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 2: you evade, you behave you rationally and everything like that,
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 2: and you say yourself, Okay, I'm gonna commit suicide because
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 2: of that. Now, I would say immoral, But the whole
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 2: way of your life is immoral, So the suicide is
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 2: just an add on. But if your life is horrible
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 2: and you really can't see a way out of it. Rationally,
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 2: then suicide is legit. And if you literally choose not
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 2: to live, then then it's pre model. It's prejudgment. There's
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 2: nothing to judge. You can only judge people once they
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 2: choose to live. Morality is about the actions you take
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 2: in pursuit of life or not.
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 1: But if you literally choose none, then all right. Stephen
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 1: was curious.
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 2: About the Broadway play with John Litgow playing Ronald Dahll.
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 2: But it's all about some anti Semitic remarks he made.
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 2: No thanks all that creative literary contributions, and that's what
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 2: the playwriter focused on, thoughts. Yeah, I mean that's really
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 2: that's really sad, right, there is.
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 1: There's so much.
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 2: Interesting about Ronald Dahl's life, but the whole Doctor Seus's phenomena,
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 2: about the books, about the sense of life that they project,
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 2: about the values that that there to focus on that,
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 2: and I don't know the comful context of it.
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you. It is completely shallow and wrong.
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 2: And but it's typical of trying to knock down heroes
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 2: even with you know, whatever whatever it takes, they'll knock
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 2: them down. Steven, thanks to the show. Oh, thank you, Steven,
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 2: I appreciate that.
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 1: Clark.
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 2: Is there a greater than ten percent chance we have
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 2: a fascist Nazi type takeover of the United States or
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 2: Europe in the next few decades, Well, I mean, I
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 2: don't know what you mean by fascist Nazi style.
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 1: No, I don't think we going to get a fascist
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 1: Nazi style.
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 2: We might get a fascist A nationalist Christian, I think
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 2: is much more likely. I think the ten chance for
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 2: literal Nazi is much lower than that for somebody who's
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 2: carrying the cross.
• 1:31:17
  Speaker 1: And and and a.
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 2: And as possiblity, you know, and the flag a flag
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 2: and across. I think that the pubility is Yeah, I
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 2: think the probability is higher than ten percent. Not all
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 2: right wing authoritarians are Nazis.
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 1: There are all kinds of variations. Colleensis, I'm curious about your
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 1: thoughts on the Save Act, the Vote ID Act that
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 1: requires passports and birth certificates with matching names to vote. Yeah,
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm it requires that in order to register to vote,
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 1: and then it requires a driver's some ID in order
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 1: to actual vote.
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 2: I'm fine with the second part, right, I'm fine with
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 2: having an ID required in order to actually vote.
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 1: I think that's easy.
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 2: And again I would take driver's licenses, okay for that.
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 2: I think the register to vote with a you know,
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 2: passport both certificate, I think is a it's probably a
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 2: hood of a lot of people. A lot of people
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 2: don't have passports, and women have a problem with the
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 2: certificates because their birth certificates on their maiden name and
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 2: they would have to change it in order to quality
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 2: in order to work as an ID. So I'm not
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 2: crazy about that. But you know, my general view is
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 2: that voting is overrated, So I'm not you know, and
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 2: that voting that you know that you know, people get
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 2: too overly excited about voting because it doesn't really matter
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 2: that much. It will exclude a lot of people. But
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 2: and the funny thing is it'll will exclude a lot
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 2: of Republicans because a lot of Republicans are the ones
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 2: who don't have passports and don't have don't have certificates.
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 2: So it's I'm not I'm not in favor of it.
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 2: I'm in favor of I'm in favor of having an
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 2: ID to vote. I think when you come into the
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 2: ballot and then matching you up with a vote of roles,
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 2: they should be able to quickly verify that it's you now.
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 2: It should be quick and easy, so you know, you
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 2: could probably have a fake idea and they would know.
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 1: That's fine.
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 2: You don't need those machines the TSA has. TSA shouldn't
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 2: have the machines the TSA has. That's too much of a
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 2: violation of my prop my my, my rights. But so yeah,
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not in favor of it. But because
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 2: i've I'm not. You know, what do you call it?
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 1: Voting?
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 2: To me is not the most important thing in the world,
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 2: you know, I could think of a lot of worse
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 2: things that Congress could be doing.
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 1: I don't think it will help Republicans. I don't think
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 1: it helps anybody.
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 2: I think it actually creates more divisiveness, more people thinking
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 2: that everything's being rigged, and so I think, I you know,
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 2: it doesn't even help in terms of assuring people that
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 2: the voters is more Kosha.
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 1: I think as long as Republicans lose, they will always.
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 2: Believe that they're being cheated out of the vote, out
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 2: of it, So it doesn't really solve anything.
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 1: So it's mostly a waste of time. Thank you, Colleen.
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 2: All Right, replace the spark the US and Israel surrender
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 2: after discovering Iran has massive stock balls of twelve year olds.
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 1: That's pretty funny.
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 2: Yes, I think they should, because you know, American troops
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 2: and the Issuan troops are not allowed to shoot it's
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 2: twelve year olds. If they do, they'll be accused of genocide.
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 2: Israel learned that firsthand in Gaza. Harrison says, I used
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 2: to be an anarchist until I spent two years homeless
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 2: in the Twin Cities. Having to actually live in a
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 2: state of lawlessness is hell. Yeah, I believe that. And
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 2: in the Twin Cities it's cold. That could not be pleasant.
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 2: So I'm glad you're not homeless anymore. And I'm glad
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 2: that that shook the anarchy out of you.
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 1: James.
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 2: Why did the US lift Russian sanctions? We have some
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 2: evidence that Russia gave Ian military info that got out
• 1:35:32
  Speaker 2: troops killed in action. A Russian plane is in DC
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 2: right now. What do you think the meeting is full?
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 2: I don't know about the Russian plane in DC. I
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 2: wouldn't I wouldn't put too much emphasis on that.
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 1: But look, Trump likes putin Trump.
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 2: Admyas putin Trump is not inclined to do anything that
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 2: goes against Putin.
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 1: That's just the reality.
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 2: And the sanctions have to do with the fact that
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 2: he believes that if he eliminates the sanctions in Russian
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 2: oil or prices would come down. But yes, Russians, Russia
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 2: is responsible for targeting American troops and Trump doesn't care
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 2: because he likes Putin.
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 1: I don't have any other explanation.
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, you could have a conspiracy about Putin has
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 2: stuff on him. Maybe Putin has the Epstein files and
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 2: know stuff about Trump. I don't know, maybe he has
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 2: something on him. I don't think that's the case. I
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 2: just think that Trump is admiring of and maybe a
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 2: little afraid of Putin. You can see that when they meet.
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 2: How friendly he is to Putin. Like no, like he
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 2: isn't to any other world leader.
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 1: Uh, what was it?
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 2: Philippe Philippe, Hey Ron, what is your best book recommendation
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 2: on war strategy, not to just war read bullshit, but
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 2: actual fighting strategies and tactics.
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 1: I don't have one.
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, I can give you my favorite books about
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 2: war history, but I don't really have I haven't studied
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 2: war strategy. I haven't read war strategy books, it's not
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 2: my field. War history I find interesting and there I
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 2: would recommend Victor Davis Hansen's books on the history of war.
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 2: He's got a few particularly good books where he covers
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 2: Patten and Sherman and Greek and Greek war. So definitely
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 2: Victor Davis Hanson for the history of war. But I'm
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 2: not a strategist and I don't know. I haven't read
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 2: war strategy books, James.
• 1:37:45
  Speaker 1: Why has no mainstream media covering that Russia launched a
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 1: drone that hit Estonia power plants?
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Interesting is that they're not Maybe they
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 2: don't want to. Yeah, I don't know. Fielm cause fear,
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 2: cause panic. But that is a real problem, and it
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 2: suggests that Russian might be serious about attacking attacking Estonia ultimately.
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 2: But I will look into that story and see if
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 2: I can find more info about it. James, the UK
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 2: has a task force to seize Russian tankers. However, the
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 2: shortage of energy, how can they afford to do so?
• 1:38:29
  Speaker 2: Will they reignite their oil and gas? Well, I mean
• 1:38:35
  Speaker 2: what should happen is the UK should seize the Russian tankers,
• 1:38:39
  Speaker 2: take them to UK ports and unload their oil for
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 2: free in the UK, and that will alleviate some of
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 2: the constraints on oil prices. It actually increased the supply,
• 1:38:53
  Speaker 2: at least for the UK of oil. I mean, the
• 1:38:56
  Speaker 2: countries that seize the tankers should unload the.
• 1:38:59
  Speaker 1: Oil and they kind Michael M. Super Chat has been
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 1: much more lax and censorship lately.
• 1:39:14
  Speaker 2: It's not censorship only the government sensors only the government
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 2: sensors don't use the term censorship with.
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 1: Regard to private companies. It was frictions whatever anyway, allowing
• 1:39:25
  Speaker 1: people to post profanity or comments on sensitive topics.
• 1:39:28
  Speaker 2: Is this your influence? No, I don't think so. I'm
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 2: not sure what it is, but it's not my influence.
• 1:39:34
  Speaker 2: Good to hear, though, It's good to hear.
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 1: All right. Let's see ice, hate at airports is good.
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 1: I agree with that.
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 2: Love for TSA is not. I agree with that as well. Yeah,
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 2: I mean hate for ice and TSA is good. I
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 2: mean I don't. I just TSA just annoys me. Yeah,
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 2: and it's it's upsetting because we're also used to it.
