- 0:04Speaker 1: Fundamental principles. I love freedom, rational self interest, and individual runs.
- 0:15Speaker 1: This is the book show. Oh right, everybody, welcome to
- 0:22Speaker 1: here on Brook Show on this Monday, September twenty second.
- 0:27Speaker 1: I hope everybody's having a had a great weekend and
- 0:30Speaker 1: having a good beginning of your week. So thanks, thanks
- 0:35Speaker 1: for joining me. I gotta tell you, I mean, this
- 0:38Speaker 1: weekend was so full of news. There was so much
- 0:41Speaker 1: going on. I don't know how are we gonna cover
- 0:45Speaker 1: everything today? And I had to cut a bunch of
- 0:48Speaker 1: things I was planning to talk about. As it is,
- 0:50Speaker 1: the list is very long. Yeah, I mean, we're gonna
- 0:55Speaker 1: talk about Charlie's memorial service, but the Trump administration is
- 1:01Speaker 1: just just I mean, the stuff breaking on Trump this weekend,
- 1:04Speaker 1: there was so much stuff and so much important stuff,
- 1:07Speaker 1: big stuff that you couldn't keep track of it. And
- 1:13Speaker 1: I think everybody's kind of shell shocked today because none
- 1:19Speaker 1: of it seems to be sticking, none of it seems
- 1:21Speaker 1: to be There seems to be very little response, partially
- 1:24Speaker 1: because so many people are talking about the momos for Charlie.
- 1:29Speaker 1: But wow, I mean, I was did a show yesterday
- 1:33Speaker 1: last night about why Trump is much worse than I
- 1:36Speaker 1: expect that he would be because there was so much,
- 1:39Speaker 1: There was so bad coming out just this weekend. It
- 1:43Speaker 1: just blew me away. But anyway, we're going to get
- 1:46Speaker 1: to that. We'll try to get to most of it,
- 1:48Speaker 1: maybe not all of it. We'll try to get to
- 1:49Speaker 1: as much of it as possible, and we'll see where
- 1:53Speaker 1: we go. Yeah. People, Uh, just gonna hate on me
- 1:58Speaker 1: again for all my anti Trump stuff, but that's part
- 2:03Speaker 1: of the course. I want to say something quickly about
- 2:09Speaker 1: my comments about political violence the other day. I got
- 2:14Speaker 1: a lot of pushback, I guess in the comment section
- 2:16Speaker 1: of that of the video where I basically said, there's
- 2:21Speaker 1: more there's a there's more body count, but there more events,
- 2:23Speaker 1: the more actual occurrences of violence from the right. Then
- 2:28Speaker 1: they offer the left. And people just flipped out over this,
- 2:32Speaker 1: and and I know they always flip out over this,
- 2:36Speaker 1: and and that's okay, and and so they say, I'm
- 2:40Speaker 1: gaming the years. We can change the years. I think
- 2:43Speaker 1: the results we will stay the same. Instead of thirty years,
- 2:46Speaker 1: you can make it twenty five. So you don't you
- 2:48Speaker 1: don't count the what do you call it? Uh, the
- 2:55Speaker 1: guy who blew up the the FBI headquarters. You can
- 3:00Speaker 1: take that out if you want. You still get the
- 3:01Speaker 1: same results. But you know, you can measure it all
- 3:08Speaker 1: the ways you want in terms of the empirics of it,
- 3:11Speaker 1: you get the same result. Now, it's true, it's it's
- 3:13Speaker 1: hard to capture all the different acts of violence from
- 3:19Speaker 1: let's say BLM. I mean, you do you measure every riot?
- 3:24Speaker 1: Do you measure every occurrence within every riot? So look,
- 3:28Speaker 1: any way you measure these things, it's going to be
- 3:32Speaker 1: it's going to be very tricky to figure out. And
- 3:35Speaker 1: then of course there's when Antifa shows up and the
- 3:39Speaker 1: Proud Boys or whoever is there. Who starts right? Who
- 3:43Speaker 1: starts there's a couple. Political violence on the left, political
- 3:46Speaker 1: violence in the right. You can do whatever you want
- 3:49Speaker 1: with that. I know that the story on the right,
- 3:51Speaker 1: the conspiracy conspiratorial story on the right, is that the
- 3:54Speaker 1: guys shot the Minnesota Congress people was a leftist. But
- 3:58Speaker 1: he was not. He was some right. He was clearly
- 4:01Speaker 1: trying to kill democrats. He had a whole list of
- 4:03Speaker 1: people he was going to kill. You can go on
- 4:07Speaker 1: and on and on, but the reality is that the
- 4:11Speaker 1: right has a longer history of violence. Now, it is
- 4:14Speaker 1: true that the left in polls supports more violence. But
- 4:19Speaker 1: that's a huge difference because the reality is that lots
- 4:23Speaker 1: of people support violence and they won't do it. And
- 4:27Speaker 1: the question is who's willing to do it and who's
- 4:30Speaker 1: more organized to do it. And by the way, how
- 4:34Speaker 1: many counts of violence do you count January sixth? Of course,
- 4:38Speaker 1: I think most people who are defending the right don't
- 4:40Speaker 1: even come January sixth as political violence. It was just
- 4:42Speaker 1: a walk in the park, a tour, a guided tour
- 4:45Speaker 1: of the Capitol, according to Tucker Calson, So I mean,
- 4:49Speaker 1: there's so much distortion, so much perversion on the right.
- 4:53Speaker 1: They make up stuff. And this is the point. My
- 4:57Speaker 1: sources are the Justice Department under Trump and under Biden
- 5:05Speaker 1: and under Trump aganda. Though last week the report on
- 5:09Speaker 1: domestic violence, you know, by different groups was taking offline
- 5:14Speaker 1: because it claimed that the biggest threat was from the right,
- 5:17Speaker 1: not from the left. So they took it offline because
- 5:19Speaker 1: they don't want you to know that. Also, there's a
- 5:22Speaker 1: there's a study by Cato. Cato's not pro left, and
- 5:28Speaker 1: yet there's a study by Cato and that that study,
- 5:31Speaker 1: uh clearly shows a significant more violence on the right
- 5:36Speaker 1: than from the left. And then there's another the other
- 5:39Speaker 1: studies that are out there, academic studies that have been
- 5:42Speaker 1: done that show the same result, and there's alt this
- 5:44Speaker 1: consistent across the board. Now, if you want to contradict
- 5:49Speaker 1: what I said, if you're serious about contradicting, and you
- 5:52Speaker 1: consider yourself rational and and and consider about the data
- 5:56Speaker 1: and so on, it's very easy cite a study that chose,
- 6:00Speaker 1: or do a study that chose. But I haven't seen one.
- 6:04Speaker 1: I haven't seen a study that shows that there's more
- 6:05Speaker 1: violence on the left political violence on the left and
- 6:08Speaker 1: on the right. Show it to me. I mean, nobody
- 6:12Speaker 1: ever mentions the shooting up of the synagogue in Pennsylvania,
- 6:17Speaker 1: and nobody mentions the apasto and the other the other
- 6:21Speaker 1: one at Walmart or whatever it was that I mentioned
- 6:24Speaker 1: a show. People don't mention that as violence of the right,
- 6:26Speaker 1: but it was the one manifestos. They pretend those aren't
- 6:30Speaker 1: really from the right, the same as they pretend the
- 6:32Speaker 1: Minnesota guy wasn't. They don't consider January six. Yeah, they
- 6:35Speaker 1: whitewash everything that happens on the right. They either reassign
- 6:39Speaker 1: it to the left or they pretend it didn't happen.
- 6:41Speaker 1: But show me the study. I mean, how do you know?
- 6:45Speaker 1: Let me ask you. Guys who don't agree with me,
- 6:48Speaker 1: and it's fine not to agree with me, but how
- 6:51Speaker 1: do you know I'm wrong? What sources can you cite
- 6:56Speaker 1: other than Steve Bannon and various talking heads on the right.
- 7:01Speaker 1: What sources can you cite in terms of actual studies?
- 7:04Speaker 1: Give me a link, Send me links to the studies
- 7:08Speaker 1: where it's shown the political violence on the left. And
- 7:13Speaker 1: then I can read two studies and I can tell
- 7:15Speaker 1: you what I think which one makes no sense. But
- 7:17Speaker 1: I've seen none. I've seen a lot of conspiracy theories.
- 7:21Speaker 1: I've seen a lot of people just yelling. I've seen
- 7:24Speaker 1: a lot of people just arguing and claiming, making claims,
- 7:27Speaker 1: lots of people making claims. But there are studies. People
- 7:32Speaker 1: actually study this, people actually categorize this, and maybe the
- 7:35Speaker 1: categorization is wrong, maybe the categorization is wrong, and then
- 7:41Speaker 1: you know, I'm willing to call that out. But so
- 7:45Speaker 1: many somebody has actually done the work, has actually gone in.
- 7:48Speaker 1: I have not, I admit I have not gone in
- 7:51Speaker 1: to the papers and studied every occurrence and seen how
- 7:54Speaker 1: they categorize it. Did they do it right? Did they
- 7:56Speaker 1: do it wrong? What I do notice is there's no
- 7:59Speaker 1: zero that I found study that shows the opposite. So
- 8:07Speaker 1: the data seems to be on this. Now, if I
- 8:10Speaker 1: was going to do my own study, I or do
- 8:11Speaker 1: my own study, but I don't have the time to
- 8:12Speaker 1: do that. I can't I can't accumulate all that and
- 8:17Speaker 1: do all that myself. So I'm just reporting based on
- 8:20Speaker 1: the best information I have, and it seems right because
- 8:23Speaker 1: it's consistent. And again, so it's like Kto is not biased.
- 8:28Speaker 1: They often I disagree with Kato on a lot of things,
- 8:31Speaker 1: particularly the front policy it's horrible, But a payment like this,
- 8:37Speaker 1: they don't have a bias against the right and pro
- 8:39Speaker 1: the left. Again, show me, show me a alternative, all right,
- 8:47Speaker 1: put that aside. I just wanted to vent a little
- 8:49Speaker 1: bit because I just read the comments and they just
- 8:51Speaker 1: it's just it's just ridiculous. I mean, I'm fine with
- 8:54Speaker 1: people saying you're on wrong, Okay, show me and you
- 8:59Speaker 1: can't show me anecdotes always wrong than by Minnesota. Take
- 9:03Speaker 1: the Minnesota motors out of it, doesn't change the picture.
- 9:08Speaker 1: So show me where where as well, show me a study,
- 9:16Speaker 1: show me a data source. You guys claim to be
- 9:20Speaker 1: basing this on facts. What facts are you using. What
- 9:24Speaker 1: you're using is your impression. What you're using is the vibe.
- 9:28Speaker 1: What you're using is what the guys on right wing
- 9:32Speaker 1: talk tell you. That's it. That's that's what you're using.
- 9:35Speaker 1: That that is the data. So you know, completely non objective.
- 9:39Speaker 1: Show me some objective source, like I talk about Charlie's memorials.
- 9:44Speaker 1: So Charlie's momorials will He was held in Arizona this weekend.
- 9:49Speaker 1: There's a massive event. People came in from all over
- 9:51Speaker 1: the country. By some accounts, there were two hundred thousand
- 9:54Speaker 1: people there. Uh, they filled the stadium of sixty thousand.
- 9:57Speaker 1: There was an overflow stadium that they fil old and
- 10:00Speaker 1: there's still people who couldn't get it. Massive, massive number
- 10:05Speaker 1: of people, and of course the speakers. I think this
- 10:09Speaker 1: thing lasted at least five hours. The speaker list was
- 10:13Speaker 1: the who's who of today's conservative movement, if you want
- 10:18Speaker 1: to call it conservative, maybe Christian conservative, maybe Christian nationalist
- 10:22Speaker 1: movement is more accurate. But it was a who's who
- 10:25Speaker 1: from from a bunch of cabinet you know, from from
- 10:28Speaker 1: the president was there, the Vice president was there, Rubio
- 10:32Speaker 1: was there, Tecker Carlson was there not from the cabinet,
- 10:36Speaker 1: uh and and lots of the lot and you know,
- 10:38Speaker 1: and there were there was Charlie, Charlie's priest, and there
- 10:41Speaker 1: were just a lot of people there. A lot of
- 10:43Speaker 1: people spoke and it definitely with that question. Just looking
- 10:48Speaker 1: just I've seen a few videos it looks like a
- 10:51Speaker 1: revival Christian revival meeting. It was. It was really amazing.
- 10:55Speaker 1: I mean you've got tens of thousands of people tenting
- 10:58Speaker 1: and clapping and cheering, and anytime something, you know, hyper
- 11:04Speaker 1: religious comes up, the tone is really set. With the
- 11:09Speaker 1: with Erica. Erica's Charlie's Wife is a speech which was
- 11:17Speaker 1: thirty minute long. A part of it were quite movie
- 11:20Speaker 1: because I mean here's a here's a woman who just
- 11:22Speaker 1: lost her husband. So I give her credit for having
- 11:26Speaker 1: the courage an ability to speak without bursting out in tears.
- 11:30Speaker 1: I mean she quite a number of times and had
- 11:32Speaker 1: to stop in the middle bit wow, I mean she
- 11:34Speaker 1: pulled through it, and she she said her piece, She
- 11:37Speaker 1: said what she wanted to say, So I give a
- 11:39Speaker 1: credit that none of that is easy. I just can't
- 11:43Speaker 1: imagine what her and the kids are going through uh,
- 11:46Speaker 1: And so I mean, good for her, and she's obviously
- 11:50Speaker 1: a good public speaker. She is now going to be
- 11:53Speaker 1: the CEO of Turning Points USA, and she's committed to
- 11:57Speaker 1: making it much bigger, much better, much greater. You know
- 12:02Speaker 1: now that she see you. But her message was basically
- 12:09Speaker 1: the whole the whole talk was was was religious. I
- 12:12Speaker 1: mean it was. It was astoundingly religious. Uh. I mean,
- 12:15Speaker 1: I know Charlie was religious, but I didn't know he
- 12:17Speaker 1: was this religious, or maybe his wife is more. But
- 12:20Speaker 1: this was all about God. This was this was about
- 12:26Speaker 1: saving young people, saving with religion. I mean she said,
- 12:31Speaker 1: I mean, this is probably the most moving part of
- 12:33Speaker 1: the talk, and I'm gonna read it rather than having
- 12:37Speaker 1: you watch it. But she broke up a number of
- 12:39Speaker 1: times saying this, said my husband childly, he wanted to
- 12:43Speaker 1: save young men, just like the one who took his
- 12:45Speaker 1: life on the cross. Our savior, said, Father, forgive them,
- 12:51Speaker 1: for they know not what they do. And then she
- 12:55Speaker 1: cries and and she halts, and then she says that
- 12:58Speaker 1: young man, I give him, and more tears, and everybody cheers,
- 13:03Speaker 1: and everybody gives us a standing ovation when she says
- 13:06Speaker 1: I forgive him uh, and of course a very Christian
- 13:10Speaker 1: thing to do. And her speech is just riddled with Christianity.
- 13:14Speaker 1: And Jennifer says she thinks she's a preacher studying to
- 13:19Speaker 1: be I wouldn't be surprised she's got that. But but
- 13:24Speaker 1: Christianity's infused, you know, everything she said. It was all
- 13:29Speaker 1: over the place. Even at some point she talks. She
- 13:31Speaker 1: talks to young men and she you know, and to
- 13:34Speaker 1: men generally, and she says, love your wives and lead them,
- 13:38Speaker 1: lead them, love your children and protect them. Be the
- 13:41Speaker 1: spiritual ahead of your home. But please be a leader
- 13:44Speaker 1: worth following your wife. Your wife is your servant. Your
- 13:47Speaker 1: wife is not your employee. Sorry, your wife is not
- 13:50Speaker 1: your servant. Your wife is not your employee. Your wife
- 13:53Speaker 1: is not your slave. She is your helper. You're not rivals,
- 13:58Speaker 1: your one flesh walking together for the glory of God.
- 14:01Speaker 1: Of course, some uh, Christians were offended by this by
- 14:07Speaker 1: it took this to be a feminist statement, but I
- 14:10Speaker 1: think most you know, but she's obviously a strong lady.
- 14:15Speaker 1: But you know, this is the this is the kind
- 14:18Speaker 1: of the trad con but again, super Christian, and uh,
- 14:26Speaker 1: I think I think people really, uh really moved by it,
- 14:31Speaker 1: and you know, we'll get some I'll give you a
- 14:35Speaker 1: summation afterwards. But uh, anyway, half an hour about half
- 14:39Speaker 1: an hour speech. Yeah, the whole thing was unbelievably religious
- 14:45Speaker 1: revival Christian meaning unbelievable. The only the only speaker, the
- 14:49Speaker 1: only speaker who really was not religious at all, who
- 14:55Speaker 1: brought a definite secular tone to this and and said something.
- 15:04Speaker 1: I'm gonna show you a clip who brought a kind
- 15:07Speaker 1: of a secular tone to this was Donald Trump. Donald
- 15:12Speaker 1: Trump would know Jesus if the guy appeared to him
- 15:17Speaker 1: in real life. I mean, I mean it was. It
- 15:20Speaker 1: was Trump. Not only did it tellt his tariffs, which
- 15:24Speaker 1: is kind of just bizarre, the typical Trump bizarre. But
- 15:27Speaker 1: I'm going to pay a clip. We actually says something
- 15:31Speaker 1: that I agree with. I agree with Trump on this,
- 15:35Speaker 1: and this is the Trump that I think ultimately Christian's love.
- 15:42Speaker 1: They don't want a Christian, they don't want a Christian.
- 15:49Speaker 1: What they want is this. They want this Trump. This
- 15:54Speaker 1: is what they voted for. But of course, you know
- 15:59Speaker 1: it's much it's much more complex, inness but this is
- 16:03Speaker 1: the one thing Trump said in a long time. I
- 16:06Speaker 1: think then I actually do it that is Actually he's right.
- 16:11Speaker 1: And let's see how I'm gonna show you this. I'm
- 16:16Speaker 1: gonna put you there right there, All right, there's Trump.
- 16:19Speaker 1: It's only thirty eight seconds. I'm gonna let it play
- 16:23Speaker 1: and watch this Trump at his very best. In that
- 16:31Speaker 1: private moment on his dying day, we find everything we
- 16:36Speaker 1: need to know about who Charlie Kirk truly was. He
- 16:39Speaker 1: was a missionary with a noble spirit and a great,
- 16:43Speaker 1: great purpose. He did not hate his opponents. He wanted
- 16:49Speaker 1: the best for them. That's where I disagreed with Charlie.
- 16:52Speaker 1: I hate my opponent and I don't want the best
- 16:56Speaker 1: for them. I'm sorry. I am sorry Erica. But now
- 17:00Speaker 1: Erica can talk to me and the whole group and
- 17:02Speaker 1: maybe they can convince me that that's not right. But
- 17:05Speaker 1: I can't stand my opponent. Yeah, he hates his opponents
- 17:15Speaker 1: and he's not hiding it. That is Trump, right. I
- 17:22Speaker 1: don't buy this Christian to another cheek stuff love your enemy.
- 17:26Speaker 1: What the hell? I don't love my enemy. I want
- 17:30Speaker 1: only bad stuff for my enemy. And I'm with him
- 17:33Speaker 1: on that and with him on that. That's the best
- 17:37Speaker 1: thing he's ever said. And this is why people. People
- 17:45Speaker 1: do you know, people voted for him because there is that,
- 17:48Speaker 1: there's a sense of authenticity. He's not playing games with him.
- 17:51Speaker 1: He is what he appears to be. He's this thuggish
- 17:56Speaker 1: mafio so like personality. By the way, when when when
- 18:00Speaker 1: she said I forgive him, and she said love your enemy,
- 18:03Speaker 1: and she said a bunch of these things, she got
- 18:05Speaker 1: a standing ovation for every single one of them, every
- 18:08Speaker 1: single one of them. When Trump said I hate my enemies,
- 18:11Speaker 1: he got a standing ovation for that. I mean, this
- 18:14Speaker 1: is the Republican Party. They can decide right, they can
- 18:19Speaker 1: decide right. Erica says, find Jesus, forgive your enemies. Everybody cheers.
- 18:25Speaker 1: Trump says, right right after Erica, Right, Nope, I'm over
- 18:31Speaker 1: ruling Christianity. Don't forgive your enemies and hate them. Crowd cheers.
- 18:37Speaker 1: I mean, that's maga for you. They want the Christianity,
- 18:41Speaker 1: but they want somebody out there. They want a pagan.
- 18:44Speaker 1: They want a pagan to lead them, with no mals,
- 18:48Speaker 1: with no morality, to do whatever it takes to crush
- 18:51Speaker 1: the people they really don't like because they can't do
- 18:53Speaker 1: it because they're supposed to turn another cheek. Maybe that's
- 18:57Speaker 1: why violence from the right is so low. Suppose because
- 19:01Speaker 1: they turn the other cheek. It's I mean, of course
- 19:10Speaker 1: we can debate what Christianity actually says, and of course,
- 19:14Speaker 1: you know Augustine says, yeah, I love your enemies, but
- 19:16Speaker 1: also destroy them if they don't convert to Christianity. Kill
- 19:19Speaker 1: them all, you know, chart them on what is he beheads?
- 19:23Speaker 1: Was it forty five thousand people in one day because
- 19:25Speaker 1: they refuse to convert to Christianity, all in the name
- 19:28Speaker 1: of Christianity, on the name of Jesus. So yeah, Christians,
- 19:32Speaker 1: you're not exactly a friendly religion. It's as violent as
- 19:36Speaker 1: any religion out there, you know it. It gives is Islam,
- 19:40Speaker 1: at least in its history, a run for its money
- 19:43Speaker 1: in terms of casualties on the battlefield and in terms
- 19:46Speaker 1: of casualties under the sword for conversion. But it plays
- 19:52Speaker 1: turn the other cheek and love your enemy, and I forgive, forgive.
- 19:56Speaker 1: I could never forgive somebody for killing my spouse. There's
- 19:59Speaker 1: no way in hell ever. I don't care what happens.
- 20:02Speaker 1: They're not forgiven. I don't even know what that means.
- 20:06Speaker 1: I have no conception or what does actually mean to
- 20:08Speaker 1: forgive somebody who's just killed suppose to your highest value.
- 20:12Speaker 1: What does it mean? So yeah, that was Trump's shiny moment.
- 20:25Speaker 1: He then went on to praise his own tariffs and
- 20:31Speaker 1: you know, tell somebody gives rich again. He says, richer
- 20:33Speaker 1: than anyone ever thought was possible. I thought it was
- 20:37Speaker 1: possible to be richer. And the only one challenging them
- 20:41Speaker 1: are people that hate our country or felling countries that
- 20:44Speaker 1: are paying the price. That's the only people who hate them.
- 20:49Speaker 1: A god, he's some He's a piece of work, that guy.
- 20:53Speaker 1: Piece of work, all right, But that will get serious,
- 20:57Speaker 1: right because Trump Trump is just a intermediary. He's the
- 21:04Speaker 1: he's the transition figure. He's a transition figure. To understand
- 21:09Speaker 1: what's really going on here, we have to listen to
- 21:13Speaker 1: people who are the future of the Republican Party, the
- 21:16Speaker 1: future of this movement, the people who take this seriously,
- 21:22Speaker 1: the people who are going to apply this love they enemy,
- 21:28Speaker 1: uh or not, maybe maybe more of Trump's version hate
- 21:33Speaker 1: the enemy. They're gonna apply it to the real world.
- 21:37Speaker 1: So let's listen to one of those. This is this
- 21:39Speaker 1: is this is quite a speech. I think I can't
- 21:43Speaker 1: think again, It's it's worth watching. Let me see they
- 21:46Speaker 1: get this I think we're right there. This is good.
- 21:54Speaker 1: But see what you think of miss Miller here and
- 22:01Speaker 1: what he has to say and and think about. I
- 22:04Speaker 1: don't know how much you know the history. Who does
- 22:06Speaker 1: this remind you? What kind of what does this remind
- 22:10Speaker 1: you of? But anyway, this is uh Steve Miller, the
- 22:15Speaker 1: advisor to Donald Trump, particularly in immigration issues, with also
- 22:18Speaker 1: other issues, who's been very outspoken since Sharley Cook's murder.
- 22:23Speaker 1: And uh, yeah, listen to this.
- 22:28Speaker 2: The storm whispers to the warrior that you cannot withstand
- 22:35Speaker 2: my strength, and the warrior whispers back, I am the storm.
- 22:43Speaker 1: Erica is the storm.
- 22:47Speaker 2: We are the storm, and our enemies cannot comprehend our strength,
- 22:53Speaker 2: our determination, our resolve, our passion, our liney, our legacy.
- 23:02Speaker 1: Notice our lineage, our lineage, lineage is al genes are people.
- 23:08Speaker 1: So when he continues to say we we the people,
- 23:12Speaker 1: we whatever, we witnesses, we builders, we whatever, what he
- 23:17Speaker 1: means is people of his lineage, his white European lineage.
- 23:26Speaker 1: That's who he's talking about, and of the right ideas,
- 23:31Speaker 1: lineage and heritage, right ideas. Yeah, I wanted to I
- 23:36Speaker 1: don't know. I don't think I'll stop it again. But
- 23:37Speaker 1: I want to point out lineage because it's.
- 23:39Speaker 2: Creepy, our lineage and our legacy.
- 23:45Speaker 1: Legacy to Athens. Let me just say, no lineage of
- 23:51Speaker 1: his hails back to Athens, maybe to Rome.
- 23:56Speaker 2: Soonly not the Athens, to Athens, to Rome, to Philadelphia.
- 24:01Speaker 1: And not to Philadelphia our ancestors, and not to Monticello.
- 24:05Speaker 2: They produced the ar and architecture, They built the industry.
- 24:11Speaker 1: They who are they? Who are the they that build
- 24:14Speaker 1: the industry? That they who built this country? Who is
- 24:19Speaker 1: the they? The lineage? Remember the lineage those Scottish people
- 24:25Speaker 1: who came over and he his lineage is Monticello. Thomas Jefferson.
- 24:31Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's Thomas Jefferson spinning in his grave
- 24:34Speaker 1: right now.
- 24:36Speaker 2: Erica stands on the shoulders of thousands of years of warriors,
- 24:41Speaker 2: of women who raised up families, raised up city, raised
- 24:45Speaker 2: up industry, raised up civilization, who pulled us out of
- 24:50Speaker 2: the caves and the darkness into the light. The light
- 24:55Speaker 2: will defeat the dark. We will prevail over the fourth
- 25:00Speaker 2: of wickedness and evil. They cannot imagine what they have awakened.
- 25:06Speaker 2: They cannot conceive of the army that they have arisen
- 25:10Speaker 2: in all of us. Because we stand for what is good,
- 25:15Speaker 2: what is virtuous, what is noble. And to those trying
- 25:19Speaker 2: to incite violence against us, those trying to foment hatred
- 25:23Speaker 2: against us, what do you have?
- 25:27Speaker 1: You have nothing? You are nothing.
- 25:30Speaker 2: You are wickedness, you are jealousy, you are envy, you
- 25:34Speaker 2: are hatred. You are nothing. You can build nothing, you
- 25:38Speaker 2: can produce nothing, you can create nothing. We are the
- 25:44Speaker 2: ones who build. We are the ones who create. We
- 25:47Speaker 2: are the ones who lift up humanity. You thought you
- 25:53Speaker 2: could kill Charlie Kirk. You have made him am mortal.
- 25:58Speaker 2: You have immortalized Charlie Kirk, and now millions will carry.
- 26:02Speaker 1: On his legacy. The storm whispers to the ward I suspect.
- 26:11Speaker 1: You know, the Charlie Cook's legacy is probably not what
- 26:15Speaker 1: Charlie Cook would have wanted. But who knows. This guy's
- 26:19Speaker 1: crazy and he's and he's dangerous. You know, he doesn't
- 26:24Speaker 1: actually say, He doesn't actually tell you what is coming.
- 26:30Speaker 1: He doesn't tell you who we are, he implies, he insinuates,
- 26:35Speaker 1: he doesn't think the country's ready yet for the full
- 26:38Speaker 1: blown on, you know, on truth about what they intend.
- 26:46Speaker 1: But he is a voice. I don't know if you
- 26:47Speaker 1: heard the crowd cheering in the background as he went
- 26:50Speaker 1: on and on and getting more and more and more
- 26:53Speaker 1: riled up. And you know is they are the Democrats?
- 27:07Speaker 1: They are who are they? And now it's an it's
- 27:13Speaker 1: an army of revenge, that's what he calls it. And uh,
- 27:21Speaker 1: you know that there's it's it's it's really scary. You
- 27:29Speaker 1: are wickedness? Who are these people? Who is wickedness? Who
- 27:32Speaker 1: is jealous? Who is envy? Who is hatred? You are
- 27:35Speaker 1: nothing when he says you are nothing, You've built nothing,
- 27:37Speaker 1: you produced nothing. It is just just anybody who's left
- 27:42Speaker 1: of Senna? Does that include Silicon Valley? Who are these people?
- 27:51Speaker 1: And who the hell is he? And yet people are
- 27:56Speaker 1: gushing this is the most powerful speech I have ever heard,
- 27:59Speaker 1: and and stuff like that. So it's going to be
- 28:06Speaker 1: interesting to see what the follow up is on this.
- 28:18Speaker 1: But it's it's scary. The you know, I don't like
- 28:22Speaker 1: to fill on the fascist termm, but speeches like that
- 28:25Speaker 1: really sound like, you know, sound like fascist terminology. Some
- 28:30Speaker 1: of the references that he makes Google's makes the same references.
- 28:35Speaker 1: But but he's not right, He's not fascist yet, right,
- 28:40Speaker 1: This is just hinting because he's not laying it out.
- 28:43Speaker 1: He's not telling you who they are, he's not telling
- 28:45Speaker 1: you who we are. He's not spelling it out. He's
- 28:48Speaker 1: still not confident enough to actually spell it out, and
- 28:59Speaker 1: he still feels like he has to height it present
- 29:04Speaker 1: it kind of in hidden terminology that can be reinterpreted.
- 29:11Speaker 1: But we know, we know, we know exactly what he's
- 29:14Speaker 1: talking about. You know, for a fact, I thought i'd
- 29:21Speaker 1: also include a segment by this guy. Let's see if
- 29:28Speaker 1: I can just maybe sent to this a little bit
- 29:31Speaker 1: there he is a Tucker Calson, just because he gives
- 29:36Speaker 1: another spin to it. Right, there's a ton of tens
- 29:38Speaker 1: of thousands of people and just I just want to
- 29:41Speaker 1: show you again, I know, I repeat myself how nuts
- 29:45Speaker 1: this guy is. He's completely insane. So you can just
- 29:50Speaker 1: see it at the end. What's when he does at
- 29:54Speaker 1: the end, and it's just weird. But the now, the
- 29:58Speaker 1: anti Semitism is, it's just dripping from him. He can't
- 30:03Speaker 1: repress it.
- 30:05Speaker 3: Ultimately, he was a Christian evangelist and it actually reminds
- 30:08Speaker 3: me of my favorite story ever. So it's about two
- 30:12Speaker 3: thousand years ago in Jerusalem and Jesus shows up and
- 30:17Speaker 3: he starts talking about the people in power, and he
- 30:21Speaker 3: starts doing the worst thing that you can do, which
- 30:23Speaker 3: is telling the truth about people. And they hate it,
- 30:27Speaker 3: and they just go bonkers.
- 30:28Speaker 1: They by the way, they hate it. They go bancas.
- 30:31Speaker 1: He's not talking about the Romans, not talking about the Romans, right,
- 30:36Speaker 1: hate it, and they become obsessed with making him stop.
- 30:38Speaker 1: This guy's got to stop talking. We've got to shut
- 30:41Speaker 1: this guy up.
- 30:43Speaker 3: And I can just sort of picture the scene in
- 30:44Speaker 3: a lamplit room with a bunch of guys sitting around
- 30:47Speaker 3: eating hummus, thinking about what do we do about this
- 30:50Speaker 3: guy telling the truth about us?
- 30:52Speaker 1: We must make him stop talking.
- 30:56Speaker 3: And there's always one guy with the bright idea, and
- 30:58Speaker 3: I can just hear him say, I've got a idea.
- 30:59Speaker 1: Why don't we just kill him?
- 31:01Speaker 3: That'll shut him up, that'll fix the problem. It doesn't
- 31:11Speaker 3: work that way. It doesn't work that way. Everything is inverted.
- 31:17Speaker 1: Did you see that laughter at the end. The guy's nuts.
- 31:23Speaker 1: I mean he's really nuts. It's shockingly nuts. Sitting around
- 31:34Speaker 1: eating homeless. That's not the omens, that's not the omens
- 31:41Speaker 1: that those are the Jews sitting around and decided to
- 31:47Speaker 1: kill Jesus, and is he talking about Jesus talking about
- 31:53Speaker 1: Charlie Cook because he's the one together with Candice spending
- 31:58Speaker 1: the UMAs. Still even now that it wasn't the Left,
- 32:05Speaker 1: it was the Jews, the somebody them's sad whoever who
- 32:11Speaker 1: killed Charlie Cook. Yeah, this is to cookofs and millions
- 32:19Speaker 1: of followers continue to have millions of followers. Maybe some
- 32:22Speaker 1: of you follow him, you should, you should un follow
- 32:24Speaker 1: him just to send a message. Wait, millions of followers
- 32:29Speaker 1: and then, you know, just to give you some more
- 32:32Speaker 1: flavor of kind of the Christian tone. I'll play you
- 32:38Speaker 1: a minute of of gd Vans.
- 32:45Speaker 3: A little uncomfortable talking about my faith.
- 32:48Speaker 1: In public, as much as I love the Lord, really
- 32:51Speaker 1: much as it was an important part of my life.
- 32:53Speaker 4: Really, I have talked more about Jesus Christ in the
- 32:57Speaker 4: past two weeks than I have my entire time and public.
- 33:00Speaker 1: Life, standing ovation, standing ovation. Look at that tens of
- 33:05Speaker 1: thousands of people. This is what they want. This is
- 33:10Speaker 1: the Christian revival.
- 33:20Speaker 4: Scary stuff, and that is an undeniable legacy of the
- 33:26Speaker 4: great Charlie Kirk. You know, he loved God, and because
- 33:30Speaker 4: he loved God, he wanted to understand God's creation and
- 33:34Speaker 4: the men and women made in his image. Now, much
- 33:38Speaker 4: has been said over the last week about Charlie's ability
- 33:42Speaker 4: to approach anytime a little uncomfortable talking about my faith
- 33:47Speaker 4: in public.
- 33:47Speaker 1: As much as I love the Lord, I haven't seen
- 33:50Speaker 1: him uncomfortable talking about faith in public. But maybe, I mean,
- 33:54Speaker 1: this is pretty this is pretty amazing, the extent to
- 33:59Speaker 1: which they are coming out explicitly and equivocally with the Christianity,
- 34:06Speaker 1: and they're linking it with politics. And look, you guys
- 34:13Speaker 1: have followed me. No, I believe Christianity is a negative
- 34:17Speaker 1: force in our world. I think it is a negative
- 34:20Speaker 1: force and has been since the beginning in the world
- 34:23Speaker 1: of which we live. I think that it is holds
- 34:26Speaker 1: us back. It is it is a force you know
- 34:30Speaker 1: that that is counted to liberty and freedom because it's
- 34:33Speaker 1: countered to reason and rational self interest. Christianity is not
- 34:37Speaker 1: a force for the good. It's not you know, better
- 34:40Speaker 1: than nothing, I guess, and and you know it's it's
- 34:45Speaker 1: it's it's not like the worst of the left is not,
- 34:52Speaker 1: in its essential terms, not inspired in the end by Christianity.
- 34:56Speaker 1: The worst of the left, the communism. Communism was invented
- 34:59Speaker 1: by the Christians in the very early years of Christianity.
- 35:04Speaker 1: Woe Cancel culture. All of that is very very Christian
- 35:08Speaker 1: and you can see so much a maga reverting to it.
- 35:13Speaker 1: So Christianity stands at the heart of most of our problems.
- 35:18Speaker 1: I've got a book coming out on that. Next book
- 35:22Speaker 1: is going to be exactly on this topic, Christianity versus
- 35:25Speaker 1: the West. That is the tentative title, Christianity versus the West.
- 35:33Speaker 1: And you know, if nothing else, Charlie Cook's assassination is
- 35:40Speaker 1: bringing out the Christians. They're coming out in force, in space,
- 35:45Speaker 1: with energy. And it's true. Charlie was a Christian. I
- 35:50Speaker 1: don't know if he was this much of a Christian,
- 35:52Speaker 1: but maybe he was. I just don't know. I knew
- 35:54Speaker 1: him when he was a little bit less, a little
- 35:57Speaker 1: bit more secular. I want to read you something that
- 36:03Speaker 1: writ wrote. This is a British Conservative, a British Christian wrote.
- 36:08Speaker 1: He says, in Charlie Clok's memorial service, what's by tens
- 36:11Speaker 1: of millions? I just heard multiple clear presentations of the
- 36:16Speaker 1: Gospel for men like the two names I don't know,
- 36:20Speaker 1: with clear cause to a pentance and faith. He goes
- 36:24Speaker 1: on worship songs full of scripture, sung by tens of
- 36:29Speaker 1: thousands live and millions at home, personal testimonies of lives
- 36:34Speaker 1: transformed by the work of Christ and the witness of believers,
- 36:39Speaker 1: demonstration and explanation of the value of marriage, childhoving and family.
- 36:44Speaker 1: Calls to Romans thirteen for the government to bear the
- 36:47Speaker 1: sword for the protection of good and punishment of the wicked.
- 36:51Speaker 1: Define wicked, what is wicked? Unbelieving is that wicked? Declarations
- 36:57Speaker 1: of spiritual warfare on the force of evil and promises
- 37:02Speaker 1: to endure a matter of the cost. Calls to be
- 37:05Speaker 1: prophets and call the nation to repent. More scripture references
- 37:10Speaker 1: and Bible readings than I can count, And a widow
- 37:14Speaker 1: publicly forgiving her husband's killer because Christ forgave his killers
- 37:19Speaker 1: on the cross, and he says, all of it done
- 37:25Speaker 1: before and by the most powerful people in your country.
- 37:30Speaker 1: It is a light to the world, not in my world.
- 37:42Speaker 1: And this is the Bannon. The whole service was muscular Christianity.
- 37:50Speaker 1: Muscular Christianity. I like that right. New York Times and
- 37:54Speaker 1: MSNBC are going to melt down. A form of Christian
- 37:58Speaker 1: nationalism was put forward. The memorial for a slain American martyr.
- 38:03Speaker 1: You had the DNA, Secretary of War, Secretary of State,
- 38:08Speaker 1: President of the United States, Charlie's team, and the widow
- 38:11Speaker 1: the most powerful people in the United States government. Never
- 38:15Speaker 1: in the eighteenth or nineteenth century have we seen that
- 38:19Speaker 1: professed about a man who lived Christianity. Never, he says,
- 38:26Speaker 1: this is Bannon, not me. Never, not in the eighteenth
- 38:30Speaker 1: or nineteenth century. And I think that's right. Never is
- 38:35Speaker 1: this country being led by people I mean, put aside
- 38:41Speaker 1: Trump Pooh is an empty vessel in most of gods,
- 38:44Speaker 1: except for tarrifs. Never is this country be led by
- 38:48Speaker 1: a group of people who are so committed to their faith,
- 38:52Speaker 1: and so committed to their faith applied to politics. These
- 38:59Speaker 1: are the opposite of the funding fathers. These are Christian nationalists,
- 39:05Speaker 1: not men of the Enlightenment, men of the pre Enlightenment,
- 39:11Speaker 1: not men of individual rights, men of Bible thumping, of
- 39:18Speaker 1: religious fervor, of the imposition of Christian morality. If they
- 39:26Speaker 1: had their way on all of us. This is I
- 39:29Speaker 1: can't think of a I mean, I know, I can't
- 39:32Speaker 1: think of an enemy more substantial than this. I know
- 39:36Speaker 1: the Left is evil, It absolutely is and the further
- 39:41Speaker 1: left you go the crazier and not either they are
- 39:43Speaker 1: I know they're violent, they absolutely are violent, and see
- 39:47Speaker 1: it in Italy today. We'll talk about that. But they
- 39:53Speaker 1: cannot muster what these people muster. This is again what
- 39:56Speaker 1: Lennapeko talks about in deb They kind of muster the
- 39:59Speaker 1: conf friends, the subtainty, the integration, the vision, the values,
- 40:09Speaker 1: really the vision the world is they see it. The
- 40:15Speaker 1: left has nothing but destruction to offer its people, nothing
- 40:19Speaker 1: but an image of burning cities to offer people, nothing
- 40:24Speaker 1: but an image of Kamas on October seventh to offer people.
- 40:29Speaker 1: The right has some kind of perverse shining city on
- 40:34Speaker 1: a hill, and that's powerful. That is power. It has
- 40:39Speaker 1: an after life, It has a story to tell, It
- 40:42Speaker 1: has a story to tell. It seems like Erica of
- 40:47Speaker 1: America speech is going to turn Turning Point USA into
- 40:52Speaker 1: more of a Christian organization than it has been. That
- 40:56Speaker 1: it's going to be its focus, that's going to be
- 40:58Speaker 1: it's push and yeah, it's uh, this right is M two.
- 41:08Speaker 1: For those of you who read dim, the right typically
- 41:11Speaker 1: has been M one. This right is M two. All right, Yeah,
- 41:20Speaker 1: I definitely think the left is smarter than the right.
- 41:22Speaker 1: There's no question about that when it comes to just
- 41:26Speaker 1: brain power. But that doesn't matter. Smarts don't win. Smarts
- 41:30Speaker 1: don't win, I mean spants. In terms of just just
- 41:38Speaker 1: conceptual ability, problem solving, math science, the left is more
- 41:44Speaker 1: knowledgeable than the right at least at least you know. Yeah,
- 41:48Speaker 1: I think that's right. Uh, But that that that is
- 41:52Speaker 1: not going to see winning, quite the opposite. It often
- 41:55Speaker 1: guarantees losing. All right, let's let's talk about some other stuff.
- 42:14Speaker 1: So over the weekend, Donald Trump had and and and
- 42:17Speaker 1: his comments. Secretary Letnick Letrick Letnick unveiled a new H
- 42:25Speaker 1: one B program, H one B restrictions, H one B taxes,
- 42:32Speaker 1: and uh, there was a lot of confusion initially because
- 42:36Speaker 1: what they told us all either was wrong to begin with,
- 42:41Speaker 1: or they quickly quickly backtracked because they got such a response.
- 42:46Speaker 1: My guess is they phones just rang off like crazy
- 42:50Speaker 1: from all those tech CEOs who sat around the table,
- 42:54Speaker 1: you know, congratulating Trump. They all freaked out and probably
- 42:58Speaker 1: were on the phone calling everybody in this administration until
- 43:01Speaker 1: they changed their minds. This is what they proposed. Well,
- 43:09Speaker 1: I mean, this is an executive vote, it's signed, it's
- 43:11Speaker 1: a done deal. Maybe there'll be a lawsuit. Bit it's
- 43:13Speaker 1: a done deal for now. If you want to hire
- 43:19Speaker 1: people using an H one B, that's okay. But to
- 43:23Speaker 1: do that, you're gonna have to pay one hundred thousand
- 43:27Speaker 1: dollars per employee you sponsor one hundred thousand dollars fee
- 43:35Speaker 1: for sponsoring an employee. Now, based on what they said
- 43:39Speaker 1: in the White House on Saturday, or maybe this was
- 43:45Speaker 1: Friday afternoon, it was going to be one hundred thousand
- 43:51Speaker 1: per employee per year you employed them, and it started
- 43:58Speaker 1: to affect immediately H one B holders today. And if
- 44:06Speaker 1: your H one B holder was in was outside the
- 44:10Speaker 1: country when he in order to get him to come
- 44:15Speaker 1: in order to get him back, like let's say we're
- 44:17Speaker 1: traveling to visit relatives. In order to get him back,
- 44:24Speaker 1: they said you were gonna have to pay one hundred
- 44:25Speaker 1: thousand dollars before you get come back. So people were
- 44:30Speaker 1: on flights. People were on planes getting ready to fly
- 44:35Speaker 1: home to India. I mean, I think that's where most
- 44:38Speaker 1: of them move, or could have been to anywhere in Asia.
- 44:41Speaker 1: These were flights in San Francisco and literally got calls
- 44:45Speaker 1: from their companies to immediately get off the plane not
- 44:50Speaker 1: to leave the country, and people were frantically getting off
- 44:54Speaker 1: planes in San Francisco, San Jose, you know, la off
- 44:59Speaker 1: of flights because they didn't want to get stuck in
- 45:03Speaker 1: India or whatever it was without the ability to come home,
- 45:06Speaker 1: because the companies would have had to pay one hundred
- 45:08Speaker 1: thousand dollars per employee to bring them home. I mean,
- 45:12Speaker 1: think about that kind of expense. This is lose lose, lose, lose, lose, lose, lose,
- 45:21Speaker 1: and this is just insane. Now, the tech companies freaked
- 45:30Speaker 1: out when they heard this, and it's hard to imagine exactly,
- 45:37Speaker 1: you know, exactly what happened. I don't know, and I
- 45:40Speaker 1: have no you know, first time information about exactly what happened.
- 45:45Speaker 1: But you know, over the weekend, the State Department came
- 45:49Speaker 1: out with their whole FAQ on this, right and the
- 45:57Speaker 1: number of corrections that they made. Right. This doesn't apply
- 46:04Speaker 1: to existing H one B. It requires to anybody who
- 46:10Speaker 1: will be included in the twenty twenty six lottery and
- 46:12Speaker 1: any H one B petitions submitted after midnight on September
- 46:18Speaker 1: twenty first, twenty twenty five, So it doesn't apply to
- 46:22Speaker 1: people who already have H one b's It supposedly is
- 46:33Speaker 1: not an annual fee. It's a one time fee. The
- 46:41Speaker 1: proclamation does not apply, they say, to any previous issued
- 46:44Speaker 1: H one B visas or any petitions submitted prior to
- 46:48Speaker 1: September twenty first. It does not change any paymental fees
- 46:52Speaker 1: required to be submitted in connection with any H one
- 46:54Speaker 1: BU renwls. The fee is a one time fee on
- 46:57Speaker 1: submission of any H one B petition. It does not
- 47:01Speaker 1: prevent any whole defacounty H one B from traveling in
- 47:03Speaker 1: and out of the United States. Now they tell us,
- 47:06Speaker 1: after people you know fled off of planes and we're
- 47:10Speaker 1: probably panicking when they you know, over the weekend, They say,
- 47:17Speaker 1: further steps will be taken to a film the H
- 47:18Speaker 1: one V program as contemplated in the proclamation, including a
- 47:23Speaker 1: rulemaking by the Bottom of Labor to revise and raise
- 47:26Speaker 1: the prevailing wage levels in order to upscale the H
- 47:29Speaker 1: one B program and ensure that it is used to
- 47:31Speaker 1: hire only the best and best temporary feign workers the
- 47:35Speaker 1: best of the best temporary farm workers. A rulemaking by
- 47:38Speaker 1: the bottom of Homeland Security to prioritize high skilled, high
- 47:41Speaker 1: paid aliens in H one B lottery over those with
- 47:44Speaker 1: low wage levels. Additional forms also under consideration will be
- 47:48Speaker 1: announced in the coming months. What's the point of this,
- 47:58Speaker 1: I mean, it's uh. I mean, this is the sequence
- 48:04Speaker 1: of events that happened, just to give you a sense
- 48:06Speaker 1: how completely unmoored this administration is. During the Friday White
- 48:11Speaker 1: House Past Conference, the Secretary of Commerce, who had no
- 48:13Speaker 1: authority over immigration secretive comments, was invited to communicate the
- 48:17Speaker 1: whole out of the new policy, where he said it
- 48:19Speaker 1: would be an annual one hundred thousand dollars fee on
- 48:22Speaker 1: all H one bs for everyone renewing their visas and
- 48:27Speaker 1: for those applying for the first time. The same day,
- 48:29Speaker 1: the White House releases the proclamation, which re itierates that
- 48:33Speaker 1: it applies to literally all H one B workers who
- 48:35Speaker 1: are outside of the United States, and then it goes
- 48:38Speaker 1: into effect the following Monday. A day later, the Press
- 48:41Speaker 1: Secretary tweets that the defects of the proclamation start during
- 48:45Speaker 1: next year's H one B lottery and doesn't impact people
- 48:49Speaker 1: who are already have a visa or are renewing their visas,
- 48:52Speaker 1: and that they can all re enter the country without
- 48:55Speaker 1: paying the fee, a complete contradiction of what was said
- 48:58Speaker 1: at the White House Press Conference was written in the
- 49:00Speaker 1: White House Proclamation. Hours later, USCIS and CBP, which have
- 49:08Speaker 1: no direct authority in implementing this proclamation, claim that it
- 49:12Speaker 1: only applies to future petitions, but doesn't specify people petitioning
- 49:16Speaker 1: for renewal a subject to or exempt from it. Meanwhile,
- 49:19Speaker 1: the State Department, the agency that actually has the authority
- 49:23Speaker 1: to implement this proclamation, still says nothing on the subject. Now,
- 49:27Speaker 1: finally the State Department came out with FAQ on it.
- 49:33Speaker 1: But this is the kind of haphazard chaos. They're so
- 49:38Speaker 1: concerned about stopping H one B people, about getting rid
- 49:43Speaker 1: of those Indians that they can even get their story straight.
- 49:49Speaker 1: I mean, think about a thirty percent of residents in
- 49:53Speaker 1: hospitals about to become doctors, and you know H one
- 50:01Speaker 1: B thirty percent of them H one B V levels.
- 50:07Speaker 1: H one B fees used to be five thousand dollars. Now,
- 50:11Speaker 1: tell me how many hospitals are going to pay one
- 50:15Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars now? Put aside, Okay, sissan Anuel, who
- 50:20Speaker 1: all right, that would have killed H one B to zero.
- 50:23Speaker 1: But which hospital is going to have to pay one
- 50:25Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollar fee for a fifty five thousand dollars residency.
- 50:30Speaker 1: That's a salary for a resident. Later on doctors make
- 50:34Speaker 1: a lot of money, but early on they don't. Nobody's
- 50:38Speaker 1: gonna nobody's gonna pay that, So they goes H one
- 50:41Speaker 1: B for doctors. What about universities. If universities are not
- 50:47Speaker 1: exempt from this rule, then they're not gonna hire anybody.
- 50:52Speaker 1: The US contracts a huge percentage of global academic talents.
- 50:59Speaker 1: Without this, it attracts nobody. No university can start, you know,
- 51:03Speaker 1: it's like a signing bonus one hundred thousand dollars maybe
- 51:06Speaker 1: professor the I that ain't happening. Oh, tuition will have
- 51:13Speaker 1: to go up. I mean. And it's like the writers
- 51:22Speaker 1: become obsessed with Indians. It's like, let's go after the Indians,
- 51:26Speaker 1: the H one b's, let's go after them. It's like
- 51:28Speaker 1: after you remember that Vivic, that thing Vivic wrote about
- 51:32Speaker 1: Americans being lazy and not educating, that that tweet, remember
- 51:37Speaker 1: that when he was still part of DOGE and MAGA
- 51:41Speaker 1: flipped out. Well they haven't forgotten it, and it wasn't
- 51:44Speaker 1: just Vivic RT. Suddenly MEGA found itself surrounded by Indians.
- 51:48Speaker 1: Harris part Indian Nikki Haley Indian and of course the
- 51:53Speaker 1: wife of the Vice president Indian. And suddenly you were like, whoa,
- 51:58Speaker 1: we're being taken over by any Let's get rid of them.
- 52:04Speaker 1: It's like, you know, they can't get rid of the Jews,
- 52:07Speaker 1: so let's get rid of the Indians second best, and
- 52:13Speaker 1: just think about think about H one B founders. Right,
- 52:19Speaker 1: I'm just going to read you a few founders of
- 52:21Speaker 1: companies who are H one B who came on H
- 52:28Speaker 1: one B visas to the United States. I'm not going
- 52:30Speaker 1: to read the names, because I can pronounce them most
- 52:32Speaker 1: of them. I'll read you the company names. Zoom founder, who,
- 52:37Speaker 1: Demi co founder, Alphabet CEO, Micron Semiconductors CEO, Microsoft CEO,
- 52:49Speaker 1: h Y Combinator partner, F five CEO, Corsera co founder,
- 52:58Speaker 1: PepsiCo CEO, A former CEO, Newton Nicks founder, Superhuman founder,
- 53:05Speaker 1: app Dynamics founder, light Speed partner, that's a Vince Capital
- 53:11Speaker 1: film bi Systems co founder, an Exception co founder and CEO,
- 53:17Speaker 1: and of course the former Intel chief engineer, and you
- 53:22Speaker 1: could go on and on. I mean, that's just a
- 53:23Speaker 1: partial list. It's just the beginning. It's just the beginning
- 53:27Speaker 1: of people who have gotten h one B's who went
- 53:34Speaker 1: on to have spectacular careers, and you know this is
- 53:50Speaker 1: the kind of hostility that they have now. Elaine Moscow
- 53:54Speaker 1: is unhappy. He tweeted, I will go to war on
- 53:58Speaker 1: this issue. The name in America, along with so many
- 54:01Speaker 1: critical people who built SpaceX, Tesla one, hundreds of other
- 54:04Speaker 1: companies that made America strong is because of h one B.
- 54:08Speaker 1: I didn't mention. Elarn Mosk, take a big step back
- 54:12Speaker 1: and f yourself. Wow in the face. He's saying that
- 54:16Speaker 1: the president of the United States, maybe I will go
- 54:19Speaker 1: to war on this issue, the likes of which you
- 54:22Speaker 1: cannot possibly comprehend. It seems like they backcheck a little
- 54:27Speaker 1: bit on this. As a consequence, maybe you have a
- 54:29Speaker 1: lun Musk flipping out. Maybe something else. I mean, what
- 54:34Speaker 1: they should have called this, somebody suggests. Gott Linsingem suggests
- 54:37Speaker 1: that they call this this quote the off Showing Innovation
- 54:42Speaker 1: US Industries Act of twenty twenty five. This is basically
- 54:48Speaker 1: taking telling global talent you are not welcome here. Go
- 54:51Speaker 1: start your company somewhere else. You are not welcome here.
- 54:55Speaker 1: Go go work for a Chinese company. Don't come to
- 54:58Speaker 1: work for an American company, and in the long run,
- 55:05Speaker 1: you're going to lose a huge number of people. And
- 55:09Speaker 1: it's not just one hundred thousand, it's the attitude we
- 55:13Speaker 1: don't want you unless we decide. We decide, and the
- 55:19Speaker 1: central planners decide, they do an exceptional talent. Exceptional talent
- 55:27Speaker 1: because there is a provision here. Let me just find this.
- 55:33Speaker 1: There is a provision here that the administration can offer
- 55:37Speaker 1: one hundred thousand dollars discount to any person, company, or
- 55:42Speaker 1: industry that he wants. Do you want a visa? You
- 55:47Speaker 1: gotta have the right people in speed dial. You gotta
- 55:51Speaker 1: know the right people. You gotta know who to bribe,
- 55:54Speaker 1: You gotta know whose boots to lick. This is the
- 55:58Speaker 1: provision from the thing. The restriction employers pursuing the subsection
- 56:02Speaker 1: A and B of this section should not apply to
- 56:06Speaker 1: any individual alien, all aliens working for company, or all
- 56:09Speaker 1: aliens working for an industry if the Secretary of Homeland
- 56:14Speaker 1: Security determines in the Secretary's discretion that the hiring of
- 56:19Speaker 1: such aliens to be employed as H one B specialty
- 56:22Speaker 1: occupation workers is in the national interest and does not
- 56:26Speaker 1: pose a threat to security or offer of the United
- 56:28Speaker 1: States so Donald Trump will decide, or in this case,
- 56:34Speaker 1: HSS secretary, very intelligent woman, she'll decide who will get exempt,
- 56:43Speaker 1: who will allow in without. I mean, this isn't just
- 56:46Speaker 1: central planning. This is the worst, most grotesque appeal to
- 56:52Speaker 1: bribery to corruption one can imagine. And this is what
- 56:58Speaker 1: you know, This is what has led me to Trump
- 57:01Speaker 1: is much worse than I thought, and the people around
- 57:04Speaker 1: him are much worse than I thought they would be.
- 57:06Speaker 1: I mean, I told you he would hire a bunch
- 57:08Speaker 1: of mega people, yes, people, but this is worse. These
- 57:12Speaker 1: are people who are bought into this corrupt, disgusting administration,
- 57:19Speaker 1: who willing to sell their souls in order to be
- 57:24Speaker 1: part of the most corrupt administration in American history, and
- 57:30Speaker 1: who are centralizing power in Washington. I mean FDR did
- 57:36Speaker 1: a lot of centralization. Johnson did a lot of centralization.
- 57:39Speaker 1: I mean Bush did with the Homeland Security. But nobody's
- 57:44Speaker 1: ever done it by centralizing around the executive branch, the
- 57:52Speaker 1: power of the executive branch. The way this administration is
- 57:56Speaker 1: doing it, I mean, the aspect of it completely determined
- 58:03Speaker 1: by the mood in which Donald Trump wakes up on
- 58:06Speaker 1: any given morning. Anyway, I mean The reality is, and
- 58:20Speaker 1: there's no question about this, the United States, if anything,
- 58:23Speaker 1: is starving for talent to the extent that we're not
- 58:27Speaker 1: going as fast as we could. We're not going as
- 58:30Speaker 1: fast as we could because we don't have enough H
- 58:32Speaker 1: one bv as the holders. We don't have enough entrepreneurs
- 58:35Speaker 1: coming into this country. We don't have enough skilled workers,
- 58:41Speaker 1: we don't have enough investment, we don't have enough Indians.
- 58:49Speaker 1: I mean, this is out of a paper that was
- 58:51Speaker 1: just published. Getting one extra high skilled work up by
- 58:55Speaker 1: winning an H one B lottery causes a twenty two
- 58:58Speaker 1: percent increase in the probable to give a successful IPO
- 59:01Speaker 1: within five years, a one and a half percentage point
- 59:05Speaker 1: increase in the baseline probability. That's a huge effect. This
- 59:11Speaker 1: is some economists. I mean, this a combination of xenophobia
- 59:26Speaker 1: and racism and central planning and just being dumb, just dumb.
- 59:32Speaker 1: I mean, I said, the right is not smart. They're
- 59:36Speaker 1: not smart. They're not smart Trump, you know. And yeah,
- 59:45Speaker 1: now granted it's only one time, one hundred thousand dollars fee,
- 59:49Speaker 1: it's not repetitive, so the markets do not, you know,
- 59:53Speaker 1: freak out today. Indeed, I don't know what the markets
- 59:57Speaker 1: are thinking. I would be worried if I was all
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: in in the markets right now. Yeah, banks are tanking.
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: Sm P five hundred is going through the roof, Nasdaq
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: is going through the roof. Everything else is going up.
- 1:00:12Speaker 1: Gold is three seven hundred and eighty. The dollars crashing,
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: is collapsing again. It keeps going down. The dollars in deep,
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: deep trouble. Bitcoins down. Bitcoin, that's that's unusual. Bitcoins down
- 1:00:30Speaker 1: despite of the fact that tech stocks are up. I
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: have no idea what's going on financial markets. I don't
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: get it. I would be selling. I wouldn't be buying
- 1:00:39Speaker 1: right now, but don't This is not investment advice. Certainly,
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: don't follow me, all right, Where do we go from here?
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: That was h one b's corruption. We're gonna keep on
- 1:00:55Speaker 1: the corruption theme. I don't know if you saw this.
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: This is just just it's it's now. I don't know.
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: There rumors that Trump meant this post to be a
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: direct message to Pambondi, his attorney general, and they accidentally
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: sent it out as a post on truth social I
- 1:01:24Speaker 1: find that hard to believe, but here it is, Pam.
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: I have reviewed over thirty statements in postings. This is
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: online like postings saying that essentially quote same old story
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: as last time. I'll talk no action, nothing is being done.
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: What about Komi, Adam, Shifty Shift, Lichicia, They're all guilty
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: as hell, but nothing is being done, is going to
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: be done? Unquote. Then we almost put a Democrat supporting
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: US attorney in Virginia, where they're really bad Republican past,
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: a woke rhino who is never going to do his job.
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: That's why two of the worst Democratic senators pushed him
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: so odd. He even lied to the media and said
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: he quit and that was and that we had no case.
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: Now I fired him, and there is a great case,
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: and many layers and legal pundits say so, Lindsey is
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: a really good lawyer and likes you a lot. We
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: can delay any longer. It's killing our reputation and credibility.
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: They impeached me twice and indicted me five times over. Nothing.
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: Justice must be served now, President JDT. So the President
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: of the United States is sending a public message. I
- 1:02:50Speaker 1: assume it's public. Assume he meant it to be public,
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: that he demanding that the Attorney general stopped persecuting his
- 1:02:59Speaker 1: political opponent. People who he claims went after him. Call
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: me Adam Schiff, Leticia. It's not clear what Adam Shift did,
- 1:03:08Speaker 1: something about mortgages or something like that. I mean, this
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: is impeachable. Just this, just this, and nobody cares. Nobody cares.
- 1:03:30Speaker 1: And of course last week he pushed out at the
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: bottom of Justice. He pushed the Department under Justice to
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: investigate a state ag who brought a lawsuit against him,
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: where the judge found him liable to investigate and invented
- 1:03:46Speaker 1: US attorney who would not authorize charges the ones supported
- 1:03:50Speaker 1: by facts and evidence. He was fired That US attorney
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: a Republican. He's the guy who they got right to.
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: The federal prosecutor tasked with pursuing mortgage forward allegations against
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: Letitia James resigned because he couldn't find any. So he's
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: pushed out by Trump. I mean, people have been taken
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: a court and been impeached from public office for far
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: less than this. I mean, this is just stunning. He
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: instructs his AG to go after specific political enemies.
- 1:04:32Speaker 5: He names them.
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: The part of Justice ended an investigation into his borders.
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: Art did you read this one that about Homan? Let
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: me find this? Where is it? Oh, I remember it anyway, Homan,
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: the guy who runs the Immigration ICE. All of that, right, Homan.
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: It turns out that in a single operation last year,
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: he actually accepted a fifty thousand dollars bribe and they
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: caught it in a camera. They caught it a camera.
- 1:05:13Speaker 1: But he's running ICE and he's an important guy, and
- 1:05:15Speaker 1: he's got to do this stuff. So the Department of
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: Justice earlier this year ended the investigation even though he
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: was calling a camera taking a fifty thousand dollars cash vibe.
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: Has he resigned in shame? Has Trump demanded its firing
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: now that it's public. No, No, the corruption is just
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: out there. Nobody gives a damn, nobody cares. Nobody cares.
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: It's all just this weekend was revealed. And Trump is
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: he getting this information about they're doing nothing? Is getting
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: it from Maga. Maga is saying he's probably getting for
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: lawa luma. Why isn't Why aren't you going after these people?
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: Whether there's a case on O case go after so anyway,
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: a Trump appointed prosecutor refused to charge one of Trump's
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: enemies is now being forced out of office. President is
- 1:06:29Speaker 1: basically ordering the bottom of justice to charge people with
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: crimes because they offend him. This is the state we're in,
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: this close to putin and these are huge scandals. Again,
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: can you imagine a biggest scandal then the head of
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: Immigration Enforcement taking a bag of cash from an FBI
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: sting and then having it covered up by the Attorney General.
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: This should be top of the news, It should be everywhere.
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: Fox News should be covering it NonStop. I'm looking at
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: the thing. Nothing nothing, nothing about this. Nobody cares, certainly
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: not Fox News. Nobody cares. I mean, this is where
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: this weekend, it was like, there's never being a president
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: worse than this guy because he so numbs us to
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: his craziness that he does things that any other president
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: would be impeached over. Oh, we'd get into real trouble,
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: would have to apologize, would have to grovel, would have
- 1:07:47Speaker 1: to do something, and he can just do it and
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: nothing happens. Zero Ziloch. I don't know anybody even close,
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: even Bill Clinton teflon president was no way to be
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: as good as Trump is in this, I mean, all
- 1:08:01Speaker 1: some other things that happened this weekend. The Pentagon says
- 1:08:06Speaker 1: it's going to require reporters to pledge they won't gather
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: any information, even unclassified information that hasn't been expressly authorized
- 1:08:17Speaker 1: for release, and they will revoke the press credentials of
- 1:08:21Speaker 1: those who do not obate. So the media now either
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: has to toe the Pentagon's line, in other words, the
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: administration's line, or the press credentials will be taken away
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: from them. I mean, this is state media. Get rid
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: of into Pendamedia. They're two buds. It's too much of ahassal.
- 1:08:47Speaker 1: A Pentagata reporter can never reveal a story the government
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: doesn't want exposed. But isn't that the whole point of
- 1:08:53Speaker 1: having a reporter? Isn't the whole point of having a
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: free press? Is the whole power accountable? Now, granted, I'll
- 1:09:02Speaker 1: be the first to admit the press has done a
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: lousy job at it, as I said last time, and
- 1:09:09Speaker 1: they are not holding Trump accountable at all. And by
- 1:09:13Speaker 1: the way, people came back at me and says, where
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: have you been they've been going a half day for
- 1:09:16Speaker 1: the last ten years. No, they haven't, not about the
- 1:09:20Speaker 1: important stuff, not about how bad he really is. I
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: mean going up a trivial stuff like Ukraino, the phone
- 1:09:27Speaker 1: called Ukraino or I don't know, the Russia scandal or whatever.
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: But the real stuff, the corruption, the stupidity, the ignorance,
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: the destructive nature of his policies, and just the fact
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: that he is such a incompetent buffoon. The fact is
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: that they have not covered that anywhere near as much
- 1:09:52Speaker 1: as they should. So we're basically eviserating independent journalism, free journalism.
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: And again nobody seems to give. There's no uproar. Congress
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: is not coming into session to consider impeachment or consider
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: something some statement against US. I mean, this is direct
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: war against free speech, a direct war against the wall
- 1:10:28Speaker 1: of the press, and not even the press seems to
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: care that much about it. Democrats are nothing of them.
- 1:10:41Speaker 1: Since one, the Pentagon. The Pentagon has informed also, I
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: guess last week, over the last few weeks. It just came.
- 1:10:51Speaker 1: Over the last few weeks, the Pentagon has informed European
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: diplomats that the US is going to partially hold military assistance. Two,
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: you're thinking Ukraine, no, no to Bolti countries and any
- 1:11:06Speaker 1: NATO state that borders Russia. I don't know. I'm starting
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: to believe the conspiracy theory that Putin has something over Trump.
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: This is really weird. The United States is going to
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: halt or at least slow down or limit its military
- 1:11:28Speaker 1: assistance to all countries in Europe with a border with Russia.
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: An add to that, and to that, But to add
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: to that, I'd say the fact that he's doing the
- 1:11:44Speaker 1: same with Taiwan. Maybe it's not about Putin having something
- 1:11:49Speaker 1: over Trump. Maybe it's about Trump basically acknowledging or embracing
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: the idea that Yua belongs to Putin and Asia belongs
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: to She, and he admires and respects them because they
- 1:12:05Speaker 1: are ultimately strong leaders, respected, admired, and Americas belonged to Trump.
- 1:12:12Speaker 1: I mean, what's Canada already? Greenland? Canada? I mean he
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: hasn't made a claim yet to Mexico and Panama and
- 1:12:21Speaker 1: maybe Panama. I mean, are we part of NATO or not?
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: So US is gonna hold military assistance Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland.
- 1:12:38Speaker 1: I guess even though Trumpolia said we're going to put
- 1:12:40Speaker 1: more troops in Poland, maybe Romania. I don't know who
- 1:12:45Speaker 1: he means. Is it any Is it a surprise at all?
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: Is it a surprise at all that Putin's getting more aggressive?
- 1:12:58Speaker 1: Not less? The Putin seems to be willing to egg
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: on the NATO for fight, given Trump's weakness, given trumps surrender. Really,
- 1:13:18Speaker 1: I mean, Trump is basically effectively he's pulling back from
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: NATO just as Russia is violating NATO's sovereigny. Perfect time,
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: Perfect time. And then he goes on television and he says,
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: we need to take back the Bagram Air Force in Afghanistan.
- 1:13:49Speaker 1: I can't believe we let it go. I can't believe
- 1:13:52Speaker 1: we yet it let it back. We need that. It's
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: strategically important. And we're talking, we're talking with Afghanistan, We're
- 1:14:02Speaker 1: talking to him about getting background back it. We should
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: have never given it up. He says, there was no
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: reason to give it up. Now, who gave it up?
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: Who gave it up? Just history, just facts. Who gave
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: it up? Biden? Donald Trump did? Donald Trump is the
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: one who signed a peace deal with the Tully Bomb,
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: and as part of that peace deal, the United States
- 1:14:31Speaker 1: guaranteed to evacuate Bagum and hand it over to the
- 1:14:35Speaker 1: Tully Bomb. I mean, he's nuts. He doesn't know what's
- 1:14:44Speaker 1: going on. And it's just like he said about power,
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: Who the hell appointed that loser? Well you did, so,
- 1:14:57Speaker 1: I don't know. We're reinstituting the war because we want
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: to take background back, because we want an air force
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: base there. I think we have one in uz Wikistan's
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: I'm not sure why we need an Afghanistan, but it's
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: just something that has occurred to him. I think somebody
- 1:15:12Speaker 1: tweeted it, probably or somebody in Nagas said, Hey, what
- 1:15:16Speaker 1: about that background air Force base? That was That was cool?
- 1:15:19Speaker 1: That was a cool air force base. I don't know
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: who knows why this guy does what he does. It
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: was Trump and Pompeo who negotiated that deal. They're the
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: one who gave it up. Nobody else. Nobody else anyway,
- 1:15:45Speaker 1: So this was the weekend, right. Trump instructs his AG
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: to go after specific political enemies. DJ ends an investigation
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: into the borders are Who's caught on camera taking fifty
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: thousand dollars panting on top brass, threating to expel journalists
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: to report without clearing it first with them, even unclassified information.
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: The White House talks about some shady deal that puts
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: TikTok in the hands of Trump's friends or GIP mega
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: donors talk about again central planning. Trump's cretain bad things
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: if we don't retake background afospace, We're gonna go back
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: to Ono. And then, by the way, just in the background,
- 1:16:38Speaker 1: his most senior counter terrorism official is in a Twitter
- 1:16:40Speaker 1: spat with Laura Luma, and of course you have the
- 1:16:43Speaker 1: whole h one B fiasco and I haven't even mentioned
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: kind of the latest development on the tariff stuff in it.
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: And it just was like, no, this I can't think of.
- 1:16:57Speaker 1: I couldn't couldn't imagine that. How many months are we in?
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: Nine months in it would be this bad, as bad
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: as I thought Trump would be. This is as bad,
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: if not worse, worse, worse than what I thought, worse
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: than what I thought. And you know me, I thought
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: it was going to be bad.
- 1:17:22Speaker 5: All right.
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: Somebody says, NATO budget increased dramatically since twenty sixteen, so
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: Trump wasn't all that bad. It turns out that the
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: NATO budget, I mean, you could attribute it to Trump,
- 1:17:41Speaker 1: and maybe Trump had something to do with that, but
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: it turns out NATO budget actually increases. Of the European
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: contribution to NATO budget actually starts increasing in twenty fourteen,
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: which is the year that Russia invades Ukraine and they
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: get a bit of a wake up call about the
- 1:17:59Speaker 1: threat on the eastern side. And you know, so it
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: starts increasing. Then if you look at the graph, it
- 1:18:06Speaker 1: doesn't start at twenty sixteen, it starts at twenty fourteen.
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: But yeah, you know, Trump bullying Europeans to pay more
- 1:18:15Speaker 1: for their defense is a good thing. It's one of
- 1:18:17Speaker 1: the few good things he's done. I'll take that. I
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: think it. You know, if you understand what America is
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: not blood in soil America. If you understand what America is,
- 1:18:32Speaker 1: then it is the end of America. This president is
- 1:18:36Speaker 1: the end of a certain type of America, unless there's
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: some big reversal that comes afterwards. Yeah, I don't know
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: how we go back. I don't know how we go back.
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: This is the beginning of the United States becoming more
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: like Russia, more of a Putin style presidency. And in
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: that sense, he is is the end of America as
- 1:19:01Speaker 1: we know it as a constitutional country based on a constitution,
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: limited by a constitution, a country of the rule of law.
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: He's ended that. There's no rule of law in America.
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: There's the rule of Donald Trump. You want, you want
- 1:19:19Speaker 1: your deal done, if you grease the wheel, if you
- 1:19:23Speaker 1: come to his dinners and praise it, he'll approve your emoger.
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: If you don't, you won't. All the corruption it used
- 1:19:31Speaker 1: to happen is now above board. It used to be
- 1:19:33Speaker 1: on the board. Now it's above board, and it's on steroids.
- 1:19:40Speaker 1: So yeah, this is the idea of a rule of law,
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: the idea of a constitutional government, the idea of limited
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: government by a constitution. I mean, that's been eroding for
- 1:19:51Speaker 1: a long long time, at least one hundred years. But
- 1:19:54Speaker 1: this is a seismic change. This is I don't even
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: pretend anymore. Everybody else up until up until Trumpo this
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: second term pretended, pretended, all right, some bad news about Argentina.
- 1:20:25Speaker 1: So since the since the failed election in Buenos Aires, Providence,
- 1:20:31Speaker 1: and look it was it was obviously I mean, Ley
- 1:20:34Speaker 1: would lose in Buenos Aires, but he lost by a lot,
- 1:20:38Speaker 1: much more than people expected, much more than he expected,
- 1:20:41Speaker 1: and he admitted defeat. But since then, confidence in the
- 1:20:45Speaker 1: Malay regime has plummeted, and the peso has plummeted. The
- 1:20:50Speaker 1: peso has been in free fall. The the Argentinian government
- 1:20:56Speaker 1: has spent about a billion dollars buyings. A billion dollars
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: they do not have. I mean they have it because
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: they've borrowed it from the IMF, trying to buy the
- 1:21:08Speaker 1: pacers to try to hold up the PACER. But they
- 1:21:14Speaker 1: can't keep doing it. They cannot keep doing it. And
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: if the PACER continues this, the economy is going to shrink.
- 1:21:24Speaker 1: And you know that's going to make the next election
- 1:21:27Speaker 1: next month even worse for me late because he's going
- 1:21:32Speaker 1: to be fighting bad economic times. Where was a month ago,
- 1:21:37Speaker 1: two months ago, it seemed like everything was going his way.
- 1:21:39Speaker 1: Now everything is going against them and it looks really,
- 1:21:42Speaker 1: really really bad, and you know, the US is writing
- 1:21:48Speaker 1: here to the rescue. At least we'll see, but it
- 1:21:51Speaker 1: seemingly this is from Jersey sectary invest But it's sad
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: that it's come to this. You have to you have
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: to assume that they're doing something wrong, and I think
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: the main thing they're doing wrong is that they're not dollarizing.
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: Malay should have dollarized. He should have dollarized a lot faster,
- 1:22:17Speaker 1: and there's some fundamental it would have been even more
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: shock therapy and maybe he can constitutionally, but he should
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: have found a way to stop printing pesos, just stop
- 1:22:32Speaker 1: zero printing, which I thought he had done, but obviously
- 1:22:36Speaker 1: borrowing still lending in pesos. There's still an increase in
- 1:22:39Speaker 1: the money supply, so we'll see, we'll see. Maybe it's
- 1:22:43Speaker 1: already too late. But this is what the US, This
- 1:22:45Speaker 1: is what Treasury Secretary wrote today. Argentina is systematically important
- 1:22:51Speaker 1: US ally in Latin America, and the US Treasury stands
- 1:22:55Speaker 1: ready to do what it needs within its mandate to
- 1:22:57Speaker 1: support Argentina. I don't know how this is in and mandate.
- 1:23:01Speaker 1: It's the US Treasury Secretary anyway. All options for stabilization
- 1:23:05Speaker 1: are on the table. These options may include, but are
- 1:23:08Speaker 1: not limited to, swap lines. Again, this is these always
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: to stabilize the paeso, to increase the dollar reserves that
- 1:23:17Speaker 1: Argentina has, direct currency purchases the US, I guess would
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: purchase pesos directly and purchases of US dollar denominated government
- 1:23:27Speaker 1: debt from Treasury Exchange Stabilization Fund that would give the
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: the Argentinian Central Bank dollars with which they would buy
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: the pesos. Because the best continuous opportunities for private investment
- 1:23:44Speaker 1: remain expansive and Argentina will be great again, we remain
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: confident the President Malay support for physical discipline and pro
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: growth reforms are necessary to break Argentina's long history of decline.
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: My April comments make a commitment to Argentina's people, Argentina's
- 1:24:03Speaker 1: people and to person Melay Potus and I will meet
- 1:24:07Speaker 1: with President Malay on Tuesday in Manhattan. More details will
- 1:24:10Speaker 1: be available shortly after the meeting. So a lot of
- 1:24:13Speaker 1: suspense around this. It's very sad that it came to this,
- 1:24:17Speaker 1: but the reality is that to fix the mess that
- 1:24:19Speaker 1: the parona Is made of Argentina over decades and decades
- 1:24:24Speaker 1: and decades was going to be painful and was going
- 1:24:27Speaker 1: to take a long time. The sad thing is that
- 1:24:29Speaker 1: this has come at the worst possible moment when Milay
- 1:24:34Speaker 1: needs legislative support to continue his agenda to get Argentina
- 1:24:41Speaker 1: on the right footing, and he might not get that
- 1:24:48Speaker 1: legislative support come October. He needs a massive victory in October,
- 1:24:53Speaker 1: so it's going to be very, very difficult. Now, you know,
- 1:25:01Speaker 1: Argentina might benefit from your support, But is it right
- 1:25:05Speaker 1: for American taxpayers to bail out Malaise government? No? Probably not,
- 1:25:12Speaker 1: probably not all right, Finally you'll be happy. I'm sure
- 1:25:18Speaker 1: to learn that a number of countries today include over
- 1:25:22Speaker 1: the weekend, and then some additional ones today, including Great Britain,
- 1:25:29Speaker 1: Oh God, Canada and Australia. I think all recognize the
- 1:25:34Speaker 1: Palestinian states. The Palestinian officers in those countries are now
- 1:25:41Speaker 1: going to be embas season and they're going to fly
- 1:25:43Speaker 1: the Palestinian flag. Portugal today also announced that it was
- 1:25:48Speaker 1: recognizing a Palestinian state. In Italy, where I am Miloney
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: refuses to recognize the Palestinian state, and as a consequence,
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: today there were big strikes in Italy, massive demonstrations of
- 1:26:05Speaker 1: tens of thousands of people, you know, rioting in many places,
- 1:26:11Speaker 1: complete chaos and train services were down. In the center
- 1:26:19Speaker 1: of Milan there was a massive demonstration. I mean, these
- 1:26:24Speaker 1: people came more about Palestinian state than it seems anything else.
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: It seems like the number one priority for Europeans is
- 1:26:32Speaker 1: not reviving in the economy. It's not the fact that
- 1:26:37Speaker 1: Russia is threatening them on their eastern border. It is
- 1:26:42Speaker 1: not the fact that they have shrinking populations and they're
- 1:26:46Speaker 1: having no babies, none of that. It's not the fact
- 1:26:49Speaker 1: that they have no innovation and that they have very
- 1:26:51Speaker 1: little entrepreneurship. None of that warries. What really wawies, what
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: really gets Europeans excited right now. Is the idea of
- 1:27:00Speaker 1: supporting October seventh, is the idea of supporting Tramas, of
- 1:27:07Speaker 1: supporting genocide, the attempted genocide by Palestinians of israelis That's
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: what gets the juices flowing. That's what gets them excited,
- 1:27:19Speaker 1: That's what gets them into the streets, That's what gets
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: them politically active. And incentivize hatred of Issil, hatred of
- 1:27:29Speaker 1: Jews as it always has in Europe, as it always has.
- 1:27:34Speaker 1: Nothing gets the juices flowing more than hatred for Jews.
- 1:27:40Speaker 1: And now you've got a whole country, offer them filled
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: with them. You can hate them all together by hating
- 1:27:47Speaker 1: the country. It really is, it really is stunning to
- 1:27:59Speaker 1: see reward reward Palestinians for the worst violence against Jews
- 1:28:07Speaker 1: since the Holocaust, for the worst violence against Israel in
- 1:28:12Speaker 1: its history. And what do they get? What did Palestinians get?
- 1:28:16Speaker 1: They get a reward, they get a prize will recognize
- 1:28:19Speaker 1: the Palestine state. Note that the violence against Israel on
- 1:28:22Speaker 1: October seventh came from Palestinian state. It was called Gaza,
- 1:28:27Speaker 1: it had a government Ramas was its government, and it
- 1:28:32Speaker 1: initiated an act of unimaginable violence against Israel. I mean,
- 1:28:42Speaker 1: the equivalent of what happened on October seventh would be
- 1:28:47Speaker 1: the killing of over three hundred thousand Europeans in one day,
- 1:28:56Speaker 1: the killing, maiming, the raping, the torturing, the burning, children, women, adults, elderly,
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: and then taking hostages. I haven't done the math, but
- 1:29:15Speaker 1: you know it's something like, you know, Europe is three
- 1:29:22Speaker 1: hundred times, right, three hundred times. Oh maybe I'm maybe
- 1:29:26Speaker 1: I'm wrong. Okay, it's thirty thousand, thirty times. It's thirty
- 1:29:31Speaker 1: times bigger than Israel, thirty to forty times, thirty five
- 1:29:35Speaker 1: times bigger than Israel. So not three hundred thousand people,
- 1:29:40Speaker 1: thirty five forty forty plus thousand people would have died.
- 1:29:45Speaker 1: And then take the three hundred hostages, multiply that by
- 1:29:50Speaker 1: thirty and you know, you get one hundred and twenty,
- 1:29:54Speaker 1: you know, twelve thousand people taking hostage, and you get
- 1:29:59Speaker 1: the proportion. And the Europeans are siding with the butchers.
- 1:30:07Speaker 1: The Europeans are siding with the rapists. The Europeans are
- 1:30:11Speaker 1: citing with the homicidal, genocidal maniacs of Hamas. And they're
- 1:30:19Speaker 1: not just citing their passion. They're running through the streets
- 1:30:22Speaker 1: of their own cities in a destructive orgy. Right. It's yeah,
- 1:30:38Speaker 1: most scary stuff in the world. The world is not healthy.
- 1:30:42Speaker 1: The world is really really sick right now, really really sick,
- 1:30:47Speaker 1: and nobody seems to have the antidote. Nobody seems to
- 1:30:50Speaker 1: have the remedy for the sickness that's being inflicted on
- 1:30:56Speaker 1: this world. Again, I have a book coming out, Christianity
- 1:31:00Speaker 1: is the West. You want to resurrect the West, have
- 1:31:04Speaker 1: to destroy Christianity, all right, David says, five hundred million
- 1:31:14Speaker 1: versus ten. I thought it was more like three fifty
- 1:31:16Speaker 1: four hundred, but five hundred million, okay, So multiplied the
- 1:31:20Speaker 1: twelve hundred dead by you know, by fifty. That's how
- 1:31:26Speaker 1: many people would have died if an equivalent event had
- 1:31:31Speaker 1: happened in Europe. It's unbelievable. The attitude that they are
- 1:31:40Speaker 1: taking suicidal and unbelievable. All right, let's see that is
- 1:31:49Speaker 1: the news depressing as it is? Sorry, September twenty second, Monday,
- 1:31:56Speaker 1: it is depressing. David says six Europeans would have died
- 1:32:01Speaker 1: if it was the equivalent event. How many taken hostage?
- 1:32:05Speaker 1: We'll get the number in a minute, fifteen thousand something
- 1:32:07Speaker 1: like that. All right, let's see. I want to remind
- 1:32:14Speaker 1: you that you can continue to ask questions. We're definitely
- 1:32:18Speaker 1: going into the third hour. This was a long show today,
- 1:32:20Speaker 1: so you can. Frederick says that making Kelly today, she
- 1:32:27Speaker 1: said about the Tom Holman fifty thousand dollars in cash,
- 1:32:31Speaker 1: we do not care, We do not care. Got I
- 1:32:36Speaker 1: should go work for this administration. I could get rich. Right,
- 1:32:41Speaker 1: you can collect bribes in cash, in cash and making Kelly,
- 1:32:48Speaker 1: who is a reporter, she's a journalist. She just doesn't care.
- 1:32:56Speaker 1: She just doesn't care. Hey, anybody want to bribe me,
- 1:33:02Speaker 1: I don't know what for. I'm not doing a pro
- 1:33:06Speaker 1: Trump show. I'm not doing a pro Christianity show. I
- 1:33:10Speaker 1: don't care how much you bribe me. Kelly said, he's
- 1:33:14Speaker 1: a national treasure. So if he was bribe fifty thousand, See,
- 1:33:17Speaker 1: how can you be a national treasure if you're taking bribes.
- 1:33:22Speaker 1: Just think of the kind of nation where a guy
- 1:33:26Speaker 1: taking bribes is a national treasure. I can think of
- 1:33:29Speaker 1: such a nation Russia. I mean, this administration wants to
- 1:33:34Speaker 1: make and Maga more broadly, and Republicans more broadly, making
- 1:33:38Speaker 1: Kelly more broadly, wants to make America Russia again or
- 1:33:43Speaker 1: for the first time, wants to turn American into Russia,
- 1:33:47Speaker 1: the presidency into the presidency like Russia, and the media
- 1:33:51Speaker 1: into the media like Russia. Subrikasky's getting all excited because
- 1:33:55Speaker 1: he's looking forward to those Russian bribes. Bribes not bribes.
- 1:34:00Speaker 1: It's he's fantasizing. All right, what on mind? You You

- 1:37:43Speaker 1: let's jump in to our questions, and we've got quite
- 1:37:49Speaker 1: a few of them. Let's start with with our fifty
- 1:37:53Speaker 1: dollars questions, and we'll start with David. David says all
- 1:37:59Speaker 1: of today's thought leaders. I don't know that any thought
- 1:38:02Speaker 1: leaders anyway. All of today's thought leaders should read Peacock's
- 1:38:07Speaker 1: Ominous Parallels and Gray's Thoughts after Liberalism. I don't know
- 1:38:11Speaker 1: Grace's thoughts after Liberalism. I'll have to check that out.
- 1:38:14Speaker 1: But yes, definitely, and add to that Dim the Dim
- 1:38:18Speaker 1: hypothesis and objectivism. They just read Land of Peacock. That's
- 1:38:22Speaker 1: what they should do. But yes, we need, we really,
- 1:38:29Speaker 1: really really do need to get people reading, you know,
- 1:38:35Speaker 1: reading objectivism, reading real analysis, reading how ideas shape the world,
- 1:38:40Speaker 1: and how ideas are shaping our world and which ideas,
- 1:38:44Speaker 1: which ideas are the dangerous ideas, and which ideas are
- 1:38:48Speaker 1: destructive and which ideas are constructive. We need to move
- 1:38:52Speaker 1: away from Christianity, an Islam, and Judaism and religion generally.
- 1:38:58Speaker 1: We need to move away from boxism and postmodernism and
- 1:39:02Speaker 1: the crazy left. We need to embrace the enlightenment. We
- 1:39:05Speaker 1: need to embrace an objective, reason based morality. We need
- 1:39:09Speaker 1: embrace capitalism as a political system. And until we do that,
- 1:39:14Speaker 1: until we start moving in that direction, sore as it
- 1:39:17Speaker 1: might be, we are really doomed in this country. We
- 1:39:22Speaker 1: are really doomed. We are heading towards an abyss. It
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: might not be a dark aged kind of abyss, but
- 1:39:31Speaker 1: an abyss relative to where we could be and where
- 1:39:34Speaker 1: we should be. It's an abyss, David said John Gray. Yeah,
- 1:39:39Speaker 1: I know, John Gray. I don't think I know thoughts
- 1:39:42Speaker 1: after liberalism. We'll have to check it out, all right.
- 1:39:45Speaker 1: Richard was the Lebanon capable of forming a strong, stable
- 1:39:50Speaker 1: Western Allianed state or were they doomed to be a
- 1:39:54Speaker 1: porn in proxy conflicts by the tribalism embedded in the constitution.
- 1:40:00Speaker 1: In the end, they were doing by their own constitution.
- 1:40:02Speaker 1: I think that the constitution, which was to a large
- 1:40:05Speaker 1: extent imposed on them by the French after World War One,
- 1:40:10Speaker 1: is what doomed them, and it's what kind of forced
- 1:40:14Speaker 1: them into this tribalistic mentality. I think they might have
- 1:40:19Speaker 1: been a chance back when the Constitution was negotiated and
- 1:40:24Speaker 1: put together and to form a real state. That was
- 1:40:30Speaker 1: a period in which they have the world was relatively secular.
- 1:40:33Speaker 1: Lebanon in particular was a relatively secular place, particularly be Route,
- 1:40:39Speaker 1: and there was a really chance to move them in
- 1:40:41Speaker 1: that direction even more so. And what happened was that
- 1:40:44Speaker 1: the constitution replaced what the constitution elevated tribalism. It's the
- 1:40:53Speaker 1: whole constitution Lebanon is based on a division of power,
- 1:40:56Speaker 1: not based on ideas, but a division of power based
- 1:40:59Speaker 1: on you know what sect you belong to. Sunnis, Shiites, Christians, Drus.
- 1:41:09Speaker 1: Each have a piece of the puzzle. Each have a
- 1:41:13Speaker 1: political peace. And instead of instead of causing society to
- 1:41:20Speaker 1: break apart, those to break apart, those separators between the
- 1:41:24Speaker 1: different tribes. It made the tribes get more established and
- 1:41:29Speaker 1: become a part of the political, social, cultural life of
- 1:41:33Speaker 1: the Lebanese. So it could have if it had been
- 1:41:37Speaker 1: done early. But once once that constitution was put in place,
- 1:41:41Speaker 1: it was just a matter of time. It was just
- 1:41:43Speaker 1: a matter of what the trigger would be to create
- 1:41:48Speaker 1: this yeah, really really horrible state of affairs that is
- 1:41:54Speaker 1: Lebanon since the since really the early nineteen seventies, when
- 1:41:58Speaker 1: the Lebanese Civil War started. Is there any appetite for
- 1:42:12Speaker 1: a more rational immigration system from either party? Is there
- 1:42:18Speaker 1: any appetite for a more rational immigration system for either party?
- 1:42:22Speaker 1: Imposed Americans seem to support reform that makes skilled immigration easier,
- 1:42:27Speaker 1: even among Republicans, but obviously Trump and his administration of violins.
- 1:42:31Speaker 4: No.
- 1:42:31Speaker 1: I mean, I don't see any hope. Democrats pretend to
- 1:42:35Speaker 1: be poor immigration, but they're not really. All they can
- 1:42:38Speaker 1: do is create chaos on the border. They can't actually
- 1:42:40Speaker 1: propose a good, sane, proper immigration system, and that's because
- 1:42:46Speaker 1: the unions won't go for it. The unions will object.
- 1:42:49Speaker 1: Now the unions are moving more Republicans, so maybe they'll
- 1:42:52Speaker 1: have less of an impact, and certainly Republicans aren't going
- 1:42:55Speaker 1: to propose it because the reality is, while Republicans support immigration,
- 1:43:01Speaker 1: the core of the Republican Party, the passion of Republican Party,
- 1:43:04Speaker 1: the people who are actually out in the streets and
- 1:43:07Speaker 1: who people who vote in primaries, hate immigration. There is
- 1:43:10Speaker 1: no issue which are they more passionate about. Now. They
- 1:43:14Speaker 1: claim to just illegal immigration, but that's just a stand
- 1:43:18Speaker 1: in for all immigration. They despise immigration, and they want
- 1:43:22Speaker 1: to fight immigration. So I don't see any hope in
- 1:43:25Speaker 1: an immigration funt unless MAGA is thoroughly squashed. And I
- 1:43:32Speaker 1: don't see who is going to squash Mega, Who's going
- 1:43:34Speaker 1: to get rid of Mega? So that would be the
- 1:43:38Speaker 1: only the only way you'd have to have a real
- 1:43:41Speaker 1: changing of the god in the Republican Party, and there's
- 1:43:44Speaker 1: no there's no hope in the Democratic Party, David. If
- 1:43:50Speaker 1: so many politicians are corrupt, isn't it better that we
- 1:43:52Speaker 1: know a fund where they stand. Trump doesn't hide his misdeeds,
- 1:43:57Speaker 1: He admits to them in public. Yeah, But the consequence
- 1:44:01Speaker 1: of that is that the public accepts that it stops
- 1:44:06Speaker 1: caring about corruption. I mean, Putin is completely upfront about
- 1:44:11Speaker 1: it all. I mean he doesn't admit to killing all
- 1:44:14Speaker 1: the people that fall out of windows, but you know
- 1:44:17Speaker 1: he doesn't have to. We all know. The point is
- 1:44:19Speaker 1: nobody cares in ruption, nobody can do anything about it.
- 1:44:23Speaker 1: So no once once it's gotten to a point where
- 1:44:29Speaker 1: the corruption is such that it can be out in
- 1:44:33Speaker 1: the open, that means the country is deturiorated beyond recognition.
- 1:44:40Speaker 1: Because in the past there were shame involved in corruption
- 1:44:45Speaker 1: and that is gone, completely gone. There's no shame, there's
- 1:44:48Speaker 1: no embarrassment, and as a consequence, that just elevates and
- 1:44:54Speaker 1: inspires and supports future corruption, worse corruption, and ultimately kind
- 1:45:01Speaker 1: of the oligarchical system of Russia. I'm convinced that that's
- 1:45:06Speaker 1: what they really want. Auban, who is the closest we
- 1:45:10Speaker 1: have in the West to a Putin, that's what they admire.
- 1:45:16Speaker 1: I mean, the writers mean saying Auban is our model
- 1:45:18Speaker 1: for a long long time, and I think too many
- 1:45:20Speaker 1: of us kind of said, oh yeah, but they don't
- 1:45:23Speaker 1: really mean it. Now they mean it, and they want
- 1:45:25Speaker 1: to turn America into Hungary or Russia, into a system
- 1:45:31Speaker 1: with a centralized, powerful president with elections, but elections that
- 1:45:39Speaker 1: rigged to a large extent, or at least rigged in
- 1:45:43Speaker 1: the way that the central power authority controls the media
- 1:45:47Speaker 1: and therefore controls the narrative, which is what happens in Hungary.
- 1:45:51Speaker 1: So they still have elections, and they're probably not rigged elections,
- 1:45:56Speaker 1: but there's no other voice other than the president's voices
- 1:45:58Speaker 1: in opposition to tries. But the media is got one
- 1:46:01Speaker 1: hundred percent, one hundred percent behind the leader, and if
- 1:46:05Speaker 1: they're not, they getting into trouble. So it's worse when
- 1:46:16Speaker 1: politicians feel think that they can bring their corruption out
- 1:46:21Speaker 1: in need to open because nobody cares anymore. That is
- 1:46:26Speaker 1: much much, much worse. That is a sign of a
- 1:46:29Speaker 1: culture being eviscerated, be disappearing. Ghops, Richard fifty dollars, Thank you,
- 1:46:41Speaker 1: Richard three fifty dollars. Questions really appreciate it was Buch
- 1:46:45Speaker 1: serious about privatizing social security or immigration reform? I know
- 1:46:49Speaker 1: I advocated these things and ran on them, but wasn't
- 1:46:51Speaker 1: able to pass either in a second term. I think
- 1:46:54Speaker 1: he was He's something was he He was serious about
- 1:46:59Speaker 1: the privatizing subsecurity. That sounds a lot better than it was.
- 1:47:02Speaker 1: It was privatizing a slight sliver of socid security. It
- 1:47:05Speaker 1: was a small part of sub security. It was very small.
- 1:47:09Speaker 1: It wasn't a major deal. He probably would have wanted
- 1:47:12Speaker 1: something even bigger than that. Was a serious about immigrational form, Yeah,
- 1:47:19Speaker 1: I think he was, particularly immigration real form, but the
- 1:47:23Speaker 1: Republicans in the end bailed on him, and he couldn't
- 1:47:27Speaker 1: get enough Democrats to support it because Democrats don't support immigration,
- 1:47:31Speaker 1: and too many Republicans opposed it, so he couldn't get
- 1:47:34Speaker 1: it passed and the same in the end with social security.
- 1:47:37Speaker 1: The political damage, the political hit the Republicans took for
- 1:47:41Speaker 1: even talking about it was such that they wouldn't touch it,
- 1:47:48Speaker 1: even though it's trivial, it was minor, it was little,
- 1:47:51Speaker 1: it was almost insignificant. All right, let's see, all right,
- 1:48:05Speaker 1: we've got a bunch of we've got a few twenty
- 1:48:06Speaker 1: dollars questions, and then I'll go to the lower denominations
- 1:48:12Speaker 1: or a few of those. Harpercampbell. If consciousness isn't physical,
- 1:48:16Speaker 1: how come people with brain injuries can have completely different
- 1:48:19Speaker 1: personalities after an accident. The physical damage of the brain
- 1:48:23Speaker 1: can affect the non physical nature of consciousness. Yes, I
- 1:48:27Speaker 1: mean you can't separate consciousness from the physical world. You
- 1:48:32Speaker 1: know exactly how they're connected, or how one emerges from
- 1:48:37Speaker 1: the other, we don't know. We don't know, but there's
- 1:48:41Speaker 1: no question that they are. There's a deep connection between
- 1:48:44Speaker 1: the two. And that's why, as you say, if you
- 1:48:47Speaker 1: hurt the physical part, the non physical is damaged, something changes,
- 1:48:54Speaker 1: something is wrong with it. And indeed, when you enhance
- 1:48:57Speaker 1: the physical part, you can enhance a so the one
- 1:49:01Speaker 1: is an expression of the other. You can't This is
- 1:49:04Speaker 1: why consciousness cannot exist without a body. It's a it's
- 1:49:07Speaker 1: it's part of the body. It's part of your physical
- 1:49:10Speaker 1: but it's not physical in and of itself. It's a
- 1:49:13Speaker 1: feature of the physical. But that's not surprising, right. So
- 1:49:21Speaker 1: it's an emergent property, we think, Right, it's an emergent property.
- 1:49:26Speaker 1: But it's a property of something. And when you change
- 1:49:28Speaker 1: that something, what emerges is different. How it's different is
- 1:49:34Speaker 1: going to be determined by what you created in terms
- 1:49:38Speaker 1: of your your character and who you are and what
- 1:49:41Speaker 1: you are and the kind of damage you suffered. It's
- 1:49:44Speaker 1: a it's a it's a the interaction between the two Richard.
- 1:49:52Speaker 1: Richard said Bernie also poses opposed Bush's immigration bill because
- 1:49:56Speaker 1: of unions. Did you ever meet Phil Graham? Yeah? I
- 1:50:00Speaker 1: mean Bernie is very anti immigration, he has said so
- 1:50:04Speaker 1: he is anti immigration. They left generally is anti immigration
- 1:50:07Speaker 1: because of the unions. Did you ever meet Phil Graham?
- 1:50:10Speaker 1: I did not. Well, you ever impressed by him or
- 1:50:13Speaker 1: any politician you met in person. Perhaps they struck you
- 1:50:15Speaker 1: as genius principle do intelligence, even if they weren't perfect. No,
- 1:50:20Speaker 1: I've never been impressed by a politician i've met. You know,
- 1:50:25Speaker 1: I met quite a lot of them, because there was
- 1:50:27Speaker 1: a period where I used to give a talks to
- 1:50:32Speaker 1: interns at you know, a house at the House, and
- 1:50:37Speaker 1: I used to meet senators and House members. I've met
- 1:50:40Speaker 1: Rand Paul, I've met I've met Johnson, I've met God,
- 1:50:48Speaker 1: I think I met Lee, I've met Phil Graham, i
- 1:50:53Speaker 1: met every cancer. I met a lot of a lot
- 1:50:55Speaker 1: of House Republicans, lots of them, some of them. I
- 1:50:58Speaker 1: got in a huge argument with one of the top
- 1:51:02Speaker 1: House Republicans at the time over dinner that a friend
- 1:51:06Speaker 1: of mine hosted. He was there, Senator Johnson was there,
- 1:51:09Speaker 1: a lot of Republican donors were there, and we got
- 1:51:11Speaker 1: a massive argument because he was going to he was
- 1:51:15Speaker 1: accusing tea Party Republicans of being principled and not being
- 1:51:20Speaker 1: real and I just flipped and I just went after
- 1:51:23Speaker 1: him and you know, basically told him that he's the
- 1:51:26Speaker 1: reason why Republicans don't get anything done, anything good done,
- 1:51:30Speaker 1: and so on, and he started yelling at me. I
- 1:51:33Speaker 1: started yelling at him. So I've gone face to face
- 1:51:36Speaker 1: with these guys and I've never met a politician. Now
- 1:51:40Speaker 1: I have a respect for Phil Graham. Phil Graham's one
- 1:51:43Speaker 1: of the he was a senator from Texas. Now he's
- 1:51:45Speaker 1: and he was president of at Texas A and M.
- 1:51:48Speaker 1: He's written a couple of books that are very good.
- 1:51:50Speaker 1: And I respect Phil Graham. I mean he's a he's
- 1:51:52Speaker 1: a good guy, and on economics he's as good as
- 1:51:56Speaker 1: a conservative can be. He's not perfect, but he's pretty
- 1:52:01Speaker 1: damn good, better than anybody today in Congress. But no,
- 1:52:07Speaker 1: I mean, really, I don't know that that that genuine.
- 1:52:11Speaker 1: None of them struck me as genuine, but certainly not principled.
- 1:52:16Speaker 1: And no, I mean a lot of them are intelligent,
- 1:52:20Speaker 1: you know that intelligent just war I mean, Josh Hawley's intelligent.
- 1:52:24Speaker 1: Jade Vans is intelligent, don't. I don't value that just
- 1:52:30Speaker 1: the shoe intelligence that much. It's what you do with
- 1:52:33Speaker 1: that intelligence that impresses. That doesn't impress me. So no,
- 1:52:37Speaker 1: not being impressed by any politician I've meant, sadly. I
- 1:52:42Speaker 1: wish I was. I mean, I mean Melay, but we
- 1:52:45Speaker 1: didn't have much of our conversations, I can't say. And
- 1:52:47Speaker 1: he was very shy, very unlike his public appearance. Schawsbatt.
- 1:52:54Speaker 1: This is a quote from Captain Cook. Excuse me, what
- 1:52:58Speaker 1: does God need with a that's the Trek five. It's
- 1:53:03Speaker 1: a crappy movie, but always like that line. It is
- 1:53:06Speaker 1: a good line. What does God need with my prayers?
- 1:53:09Speaker 1: What does God need with my worship? What did God
- 1:53:11Speaker 1: need with my groveling? I mean, if God was God,
- 1:53:15Speaker 1: why would he care? Why would he want it? I mean,
- 1:53:19Speaker 1: what kind of low self esteem does a God have
- 1:53:21Speaker 1: to have to want you on your knees? What kind
- 1:53:25Speaker 1: of low self esteem does a God have to have
- 1:53:29Speaker 1: to want to torture you for eternity if you don't
- 1:53:33Speaker 1: commit your body and soul to him. A sadistic, hollable, disgusting,
- 1:53:39Speaker 1: awful god, I guess, but not a nice god, not
- 1:53:44Speaker 1: a not a not a god I would want to
- 1:53:46Speaker 1: have as a god. I mean, even if God exists,
- 1:53:53Speaker 1: I don't like him. David, here's an idea. Create a
- 1:54:00Speaker 1: third party and call it the Centrists. A majority of
- 1:54:03Speaker 1: Americans supports centrist politics. I mean, people have tried. They
- 1:54:07Speaker 1: tried before the last election. Couldn't get any traction, couldn't
- 1:54:10Speaker 1: even get anybody to really run. What's his name, Elon
- 1:54:15Speaker 1: Musk threatened to do that. I think it fizzled. I
- 1:54:19Speaker 1: think it's gone away. He threatened to start his own
- 1:54:22Speaker 1: party and bank all it and fund the whole thing,
- 1:54:27Speaker 1: and I think he's back off of it and it's fizzled. Yeah,
- 1:54:31Speaker 1: I mean, we need a third party in this country.
- 1:54:33Speaker 1: There's no question the left and the right can merge,
- 1:54:36Speaker 1: woke left, woke right, all the same crap. They can merge,
- 1:54:40Speaker 1: and you need a third party. You need another party
- 1:54:43Speaker 1: to represent I think way most Americans are, you know,
- 1:54:49Speaker 1: but it's hard to tell where most Americans are because
- 1:54:51Speaker 1: the most Americans, I mean a majority of Americans voted
- 1:54:54Speaker 1: for Trump. Andrew Trey GILLFK links Tyland all to autism. Yes,
- 1:55:01Speaker 1: so then, and it appears that they're getting wrong a
- 1:55:04Speaker 1: core distinction in science, mistaking correlation with causation. I don't
- 1:55:09Speaker 1: know the science behind it, but that sounds about right.
- 1:55:12Speaker 1: With this administration. I mean, this is just unbelievable. Anything
- 1:55:16Speaker 1: to distract from the insanity of what RFK is doing.
- 1:55:19Speaker 1: There's going to be a press conference tomorrow where they're
- 1:55:22Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna announce that the cause of autism is
- 1:55:26Speaker 1: women in the first months of gestuation taking Thailand all,
- 1:55:32Speaker 1: and that Thailand al somehow causes autism and other problems
- 1:55:38Speaker 1: with the infant ADHD and stuff like that. Now, this
- 1:55:44Speaker 1: is based on a study that was published twenty or
- 1:55:45Speaker 1: thirty years ago that shows some week I emphasized weak
- 1:55:50Speaker 1: correlation between taking tailand all in this the study has
- 1:55:55Speaker 1: been looked at for the over and over and over
- 1:55:57Speaker 1: again for the last twenty years, and doctors have come
- 1:56:01Speaker 1: repeatedly to view the coalition's spurious coalation that is unrelated
- 1:56:06Speaker 1: to causality. Nobody, as far as I can tell, in
- 1:56:10Speaker 1: science today, things that talent on causes autism. Under these conditions.
- 1:56:21Speaker 1: It appears that the study has been thoroughly rebuked. It
- 1:56:28Speaker 1: doesn't matter. It just doesn't matter. Facts, reality, science, those
- 1:56:37Speaker 1: all Enlightenment values, those are all so old fashioned. We've
- 1:56:42Speaker 1: gone beyond that. We've gone beyond that. And the reality
- 1:56:53Speaker 1: is that they don't care when iote about science or facts,
- 1:56:58Speaker 1: and they're just making it up as they want as
- 1:57:00Speaker 1: they go along. And they'll, you know, I don't remember
- 1:57:03Speaker 1: who make Styler is Johnson and Johnson. They will they'll
- 1:57:07Speaker 1: go after the company, a good, unbelievable productive company.
- 1:57:13Speaker 4: Uh.
- 1:57:13Speaker 1: And they'll they'll they're blacklisted like they do, like the
- 1:57:17Speaker 1: left does, and and so on. H john who is
- 1:57:23Speaker 1: always always president here in order to accuse me of
- 1:57:27Speaker 1: making stuff up, says Bonney. Sanders abandoned his support for
- 1:57:29Speaker 1: anti immigration stands when he decided to run for president.
- 1:57:33Speaker 1: Just check his website. When he ran for president, he
- 1:57:39Speaker 1: he had a he had an interview with God, the
- 1:57:45Speaker 1: the the leftist, the the guy who just wrote abundance
- 1:57:50Speaker 1: on the left. Uh, I forget his name, anyway, the
- 1:57:56Speaker 1: guy asked him directly about open immigration, about about huge
- 1:58:00Speaker 1: numbers of immigrants, and Bernie was, and I can find
- 1:58:04Speaker 1: the link, and I can share the link. If anybody
- 1:58:06Speaker 1: doesn't believe me, it needs evidence of me not making
- 1:58:09Speaker 1: stuff up, as John would suggest. As a client, Thank
- 1:58:13Speaker 1: you Ian as a client. He didn't interview with Az
- 1:58:15Speaker 1: a client. You can find it online. It's easy to find.
- 1:58:18Speaker 1: And he said, you know, he came out supporting immigration,
- 1:58:21Speaker 1: but not too much because and he said, I've never
- 1:58:24Speaker 1: been a big supporter of mass migration or open immigration
- 1:58:28Speaker 1: because because, yeah, I mean, it lowers the wages of
- 1:58:32Speaker 1: the working class, and and uh and I'm for the
- 1:58:34Speaker 1: working class. So so look, you can accuse me of
- 1:58:38Speaker 1: a lot of things, but I don't make stuff up.
- 1:58:40Speaker 1: I don't make stuff up. And the reality is making
- 1:58:43Speaker 1: a list of all the things that you think I've
- 1:58:45Speaker 1: made up, and I'll give you sources. I'll give you
- 1:58:49Speaker 1: references for every single figuring one of them. So you
- 1:58:52Speaker 1: want to you want to call me a liar, You
- 1:58:55Speaker 1: want to call me a liar? Then you know you
- 1:58:58Speaker 1: bring bring it. We get on. I'll debate any one
- 1:59:02Speaker 1: of you on the accuracy of the things that I say.
- 1:59:09Speaker 1: I'll send you receipts, I'll send you links, I'll send
- 1:59:12Speaker 1: you studies. It's easy to get on a chat. And
- 1:59:17Speaker 1: I don't know who this John Davis is, probably will
- 1:59:21Speaker 1: never meet him, maybe haven't many who knows, But it's
- 1:59:25Speaker 1: easy anonymously equivalent of anonymously to sit on a chat
- 1:59:30Speaker 1: and say, oh, he's making stuff up. No, Bernie Sanders
- 1:59:38Speaker 1: is not pro immigration. He's pro more immigration, Yeah, sure,
- 1:59:44Speaker 1: but he's not pro imgration, not the way I mean
- 1:59:46Speaker 1: poor immigration. All right, he pissed me off. I guess
- 1:59:56Speaker 1: that's what he wanted. I shouldn't give in to the bastards, Okay, Richard.
- 2:00:03Speaker 1: What are the most important things when should consider before
- 2:00:05Speaker 1: having children? What is address advice you received or wish
- 2:00:10Speaker 1: you had received? God, I don't know it's a tough question.
- 2:00:19Speaker 1: There's a lot you can say about it. I mean,
- 2:00:22Speaker 1: first you have to realize just the sheer amount of
- 2:00:25Speaker 1: work that's involved having children is going to be the
- 2:00:29Speaker 1: biggest commitment you make in your life. You're going to
- 2:00:32Speaker 1: spend eighteen years with them being your responsibility. That your responsibility.
- 2:00:38Speaker 1: Like it or not. You signed that contract, you took
- 2:00:42Speaker 1: that on, and that's a huge burden. It's not easy.
- 2:00:49Speaker 1: You have to remember the children are not computers that
- 2:00:55Speaker 1: you program. You will not get the child that you
- 2:01:00Speaker 1: wish to have. They make choices, they decide stuff you don't.
- 2:01:10Speaker 1: You can be the best parent in the world and
- 2:01:12Speaker 1: your children could come out lousy, can come out horrible.
- 2:01:23Speaker 1: So that's the realize that the amount of work that
- 2:01:26Speaker 1: it requires, particularly you know, nobody can prepare you. Just
- 2:01:29Speaker 1: this is just a fact. And you can delude yourself
- 2:01:32Speaker 1: into thinking you're prepared, but nobody can prepare you for
- 2:01:35Speaker 1: the first year. It just takes over your life. It's
- 2:01:40Speaker 1: just overwhelming. You'll work harder than you've ever worked in
- 2:01:43Speaker 1: your life. You'll sleep less than you've ever slept in
- 2:01:46Speaker 1: your life, and half the time you won't know if
- 2:01:48Speaker 1: you're doing right. Or you just won't know. It's really hard,
- 2:01:57Speaker 1: but it's so and you can't be prepared for that.
- 2:02:04Speaker 1: I mean, let a pikf once said the evolution made
- 2:02:06Speaker 1: a mistake by requiring one man and one woman to
- 2:02:10Speaker 1: have a baby. He thought they should I mean he
- 2:02:13Speaker 1: was joking, but I think you'll get the point. He
- 2:02:16Speaker 1: thought the babies should be a product of orgies, so
- 2:02:20Speaker 1: that babies required many parents because two people were not
- 2:02:25Speaker 1: enough to take care of a baby. That's after his
- 2:02:27Speaker 1: experience with a baby. So I mean a lot of work,
- 2:02:35Speaker 1: a lot of work, so that you have to realize.
- 2:02:43Speaker 1: On the flip side, the joy is immense. I mean,
- 2:02:48Speaker 1: if you like this sort of stuff, and I did,
- 2:02:51Speaker 1: you get to see a human being developed. You get
- 2:02:55Speaker 1: to see them become human from day one, really from
- 2:03:02Speaker 1: day one. They're looking around, they're observing, they're sucking in information,
- 2:03:08Speaker 1: and you get to see them make the integrations, make
- 2:03:12Speaker 1: their inductions that where their first concepts, and how they
- 2:03:17Speaker 1: do that. It's just so fascinating. They're so cute and
- 2:03:21Speaker 1: innocent and just you know, thirsty for knowledge, thirsty they
- 2:03:30Speaker 1: just want to know stuff, They want to touch, they
- 2:03:34Speaker 1: want to feel. They're not rationalists. They don't live in
- 2:03:37Speaker 1: their head. They live in the world. They use their
- 2:03:40Speaker 1: feet to touch stuff, they use their hands. There's constantly looking, smelling, tasting,
- 2:03:45Speaker 1: Everything goes in their mouth. Why they want to taste it,
- 2:03:47Speaker 1: It's a sense they want to get a sense of
- 2:03:50Speaker 1: the world. I mean, Observing babies is just one of
- 2:03:55Speaker 1: the most magical, amazing, wonderful, inspiring things you will ever do.
- 2:04:00Speaker 1: And they're yours and that makes it all the more so.
- 2:04:05Speaker 1: Having children is just if you engage yourself in that process,
- 2:04:11Speaker 1: it's just amazing. And then as they grow, they attain
- 2:04:14Speaker 1: more and more cognitive skills, they become more and more conceptual.
- 2:04:19Speaker 1: You start having these wondrous, fabulous discussions conversations with them,
- 2:04:29Speaker 1: and of course it's scary because you realize that the
- 2:04:32Speaker 1: things you're saying have a huge impact on them and
- 2:04:34Speaker 1: the way you say it, and it's hard there also,
- 2:04:38Speaker 1: you know they challenge you intellectually but also physically and
- 2:04:42Speaker 1: mentally and psychologically. But it's just a beautiful thing. It's amazing.
- 2:04:49Speaker 1: And to watch them grow up, to watch them be
- 2:04:51Speaker 1: successful if they are, to watch them have a life,
- 2:04:55Speaker 1: becoming dependent human beings, it's just an amazing, beautiful thing. See,
- 2:05:02Speaker 1: you have to be ready for the wonder and the
- 2:05:05Speaker 1: work the wonder in the work. Read a lot. There's
- 2:05:09Speaker 1: a lot of good books out there on early childhood, particularly,
- 2:05:14Speaker 1: but also on how to talk to kids, how to
- 2:05:17Speaker 1: talk to teenagers. I mean, don't assume you know. You don't.
- 2:05:21Speaker 1: We don't know anything about raising kids. It's not innate.
- 2:05:24Speaker 1: It's not like chimpanzees. It's not innate. You have to
- 2:05:31Speaker 1: you have to actually you actually have to do the
- 2:05:36Speaker 1: work to figure it out, and that requires I think
- 2:05:39Speaker 1: learning and that case, reading, studying. So I would definitely
- 2:05:43Speaker 1: get recommendations around what do you call it, different childhood books,
- 2:05:52Speaker 1: guides for that. And there's some good people in objectivism
- 2:05:57Speaker 1: doing work on this who can probably have book lists
- 2:06:02Speaker 1: and stuff online and you can probably find it if
- 2:06:05Speaker 1: you're interested in some references email me. But but but
- 2:06:09Speaker 1: there's there's the people doing good work. There are a
- 2:06:12Speaker 1: lot of people in education and objectivism. There are few
- 2:06:14Speaker 1: people in psychology and education. They're the people to really
- 2:06:17Speaker 1: talk about parenting. Uh and and but but we eat
- 2:06:21Speaker 1: a lot study don't. Again, I think most parents go
- 2:06:24Speaker 1: into it just assuming they'll figure it out. And you can.
- 2:06:28Speaker 1: You can wing it, but if you want to be
- 2:06:30Speaker 1: good parents, you have to really think about it. You
- 2:06:31Speaker 1: have to really you have to really really work on it.
- 2:06:40Speaker 1: I love being a father, you know, uh, you know,
- 2:06:43Speaker 1: particularly when they were young. I found it more difficult
- 2:06:45Speaker 1: when they were teenagers, but when they were young, I
- 2:06:49Speaker 1: loved it. It was it was a huge amount of fun,
- 2:06:52Speaker 1: a huge amount of fun. I love babies. I generally
- 2:06:55Speaker 1: love little kids. I love seeing that process. I love
- 2:06:59Speaker 1: that inquisitiveness, even at the preconceptual level. Richard, would you
- 2:07:06Speaker 1: ever consider doing it? I RAN's rules for parents could
- 2:07:08Speaker 1: include tips on finance, savings and way to navigate common
- 2:07:12Speaker 1: issues with parenting. God, I'm so removed from that. I mean,
- 2:07:17Speaker 1: my kids are so grown up now. It would be
- 2:07:19Speaker 1: hard for me to get into that. You know. I
- 2:07:24Speaker 1: could interview people about it, I guess, but it would
- 2:07:28Speaker 1: be hard for me to get into that. So I
- 2:07:30Speaker 1: don't know. I'll think about it. I'll think about it.
- 2:07:32Speaker 1: Thank you, Richard. Wow, Richards put a lot of money
- 2:07:35Speaker 1: into the show today. Thank you. Really really appreciated. As
- 2:07:37Speaker 1: he always does when he shows up. He's a huge supporter.
- 2:07:41Speaker 1: So three hundred and fifty dollars today Wow, Richard's that's fantastic,
- 2:07:48Speaker 1: thank you, thank you, thank you. All right, let's oh,
- 2:07:54Speaker 1: I wanted to do some stickers before I answer the
- 2:07:58Speaker 1: rest of the questions. I sow. Wes came in with
- 2:08:01Speaker 1: fifty dollars. Danny, thank you, Wes, thank you for the
- 2:08:04Speaker 1: fifty Jason, thank you. And there's a trig dicotomy and
- 2:08:19Speaker 1: Paul and John and Travis. It was great, Thank you guys,
- 2:08:29Speaker 1: really appreciate it. There's another one Allen and Mary Eleen
- 2:08:36Speaker 1: and test Us fifty dollars. Thank you, test Us, really
- 2:08:39Speaker 1: appreciate that. The tom Yeah, being a good fundraising day today,
- 2:08:46Speaker 1: it was great. Really appreciate the support. Guys, thank you,
- 2:08:48Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. And Catherine Catherine started us off
- 2:08:52Speaker 1: in Silvanos of course was there at the beginning. And Kyle,
- 2:08:56Speaker 1: thank you to all the stick of people. Sorry if
- 2:08:58Speaker 1: I missed you. I appreciate all of you. Thank you
- 2:09:02Speaker 1: for the support, whatever amount it was, all right, Neil,
- 2:09:06Speaker 1: what happened to Vincent Galso interview? It will happen after
- 2:09:11Speaker 1: I get back home. I'll start coordinating interviews. We'll start
- 2:09:14Speaker 1: interviews in October. I'm traveling a lot in October November
- 2:09:18Speaker 1: but we'll squeeze them in and definitely in December we'll
- 2:09:21Speaker 1: have interviews. So the challenge is my time. Liam one
- 2:09:27Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars H one B is a di program
- 2:09:30Speaker 1: for American citizens. Will innovation and tech now be completely happened?
- 2:09:34Speaker 1: And not completely, but it will be happened, There's no question.
- 2:09:37Speaker 1: Now again, they're gonna give exclusions, They're gonna give all
- 2:09:41Speaker 1: kinds of stuff like that, So who knows how it
- 2:09:43Speaker 1: will play out. But yes, this is a bill that reduces,
- 2:09:47Speaker 1: immediately reduces innovation, reduces future economic growth in the United States.
- 2:09:53Speaker 1: This is an executive order that is destructive. It has
- 2:09:55Speaker 1: no upside and lots of downside. And you'll see the downside.
- 2:10:01Speaker 1: You'll see the downside in the stagnation that is coming
- 2:10:05Speaker 1: in a stagnation we're already living in, but it's gonna
- 2:10:07Speaker 1: get worse, and in the success of China and potentially
- 2:10:11Speaker 1: other countries around the world that in spite of the
- 2:10:13Speaker 1: fact that they hampered by their own central planning, at
- 2:10:16Speaker 1: least I'm not stupid enough to alienate talent. We have
- 2:10:23Speaker 1: a uniquely stupid administration, uniquely stupid in that it is
- 2:10:29Speaker 1: alienating global talent, the people who've made this country the
- 2:10:35Speaker 1: success that it is. They alienateing near those people and
- 2:10:39Speaker 1: we will pay a heavy price for that, and Americans
- 2:10:41Speaker 1: who support this are just blinded. Richard, what do you
- 2:10:48Speaker 1: think of Parma Lucky? I saw any interview with him
- 2:10:50Speaker 1: recently and think he seems extremely smart and I love
- 2:10:54Speaker 1: his Silicon Valley energy and Duell is doing amazing stuff
- 2:10:59Speaker 1: shaking up Department of Defense percurement. Yes, I highly recommend
- 2:11:04Speaker 1: if you're interested in the Partner of Defense reading Unit X.
- 2:11:07Speaker 1: Unit X. It's an excellent book on the Partner of
- 2:11:10Speaker 1: Defense percorpment, really interesting and tech. Anyway, from what I know,
- 2:11:16Speaker 1: Palmer Lucky seems like a really fascinating guy. He became
- 2:11:20Speaker 1: he started his first company what he was a teenager,
- 2:11:23Speaker 1: and he basically built the virtual reality goggles that he
- 2:11:28Speaker 1: then sold to Facebook. Was basically forced out of Facebook
- 2:11:37Speaker 1: from what I hear, because of his politics, because he
- 2:11:39Speaker 1: was more right wing than the people more I don't
- 2:11:44Speaker 1: know exactly in what way right wing, but he wasn't
- 2:11:46Speaker 1: buying into the left wing stuff that was being advocated
- 2:11:49Speaker 1: at Facebook at the time, and he was kind of
- 2:11:53Speaker 1: forced out of it. He was forced out, but because
- 2:11:55Speaker 1: he had sold the company, he was already a billionaire.
- 2:11:58Speaker 1: He went on to start and he got money from
- 2:12:01Speaker 1: I think Peter til and others to start Andrew will
- 2:12:04Speaker 1: but of course he also had money, uh to be
- 2:12:07Speaker 1: a defense contract. Then he's done phenomenally well at that. Uh.
- 2:12:10Speaker 1: He's still in his twenties. He's still a young kid,
- 2:12:13Speaker 1: incredibly smart, incredibly energetic, got a Silicon vallee mentality. I
- 2:12:19Speaker 1: don't know if his politics are the same politics as
- 2:12:22Speaker 1: a CEO PLANTEA. If they are, then I'd be worried.
- 2:12:27Speaker 1: But I don't know that, so I don't wanna. I
- 2:12:29Speaker 1: don't wanna. I don't want to say anything negative. He
- 2:12:34Speaker 1: seems like a real Silicon value hero and we'll see
- 2:12:38Speaker 1: what comes of him. But so far, amazing businessman, amazing entrepreneur,
- 2:12:43Speaker 1: one of the one of the greats of this generation.
- 2:12:45Speaker 1: Certainly I haven't seen any mention of any man. But
- 2:12:51Speaker 1: you know, Peter Teel's an ie Man fan. Elan Musk
- 2:12:54Speaker 1: is probably an Iman fan. Uh. Probably everybody there's an
- 2:12:57Speaker 1: nine Man fan. And then they go on to do
- 2:12:59Speaker 1: other things, and the question is what do they do
- 2:13:02Speaker 1: with the Ironman? Ironman fandom? Do they do they then,
- 2:13:09Speaker 1: you know, become Christian nationalists in spite of liking Ironman
- 2:13:15Speaker 1: like Peter Teo. Peter Teel's a Catholic, committed Catholic. It
- 2:13:20Speaker 1: seems like committed nationalists now A big fan of JD.
- 2:13:25Speaker 1: Van's and yet he's an Ironman fan. So what does
- 2:13:27Speaker 1: it even mean to be an Iman fan? I don't know.
- 2:13:30Speaker 1: Richard is back Unit Actions and chip Wars were great,
- 2:13:34Speaker 1: Yes they were. Thank you for the recommendations on a
- 2:13:36Speaker 1: prior show. I appreciate that. What are you reading now
- 2:13:40Speaker 1: and what are some top books you've read this year?
- 2:13:43Speaker 1: Oh God, I mean I'm reading right now. Is How
- 2:13:46Speaker 1: the Scots Made the Modern World. I think that's what
- 2:13:49Speaker 1: it's called, How the Scots Made the Modern World, which
- 2:13:52Speaker 1: is interesting, it's a little biased, it's interesting. You learn
- 2:13:57Speaker 1: a lot of history, a lot of history of Scotland
- 2:13:59Speaker 1: and a lot of history of the impact of Scotland
- 2:14:02Speaker 1: on the Scottish Enlightenment on the world. And Scottish Enlightenment
- 2:14:05Speaker 1: played a big, big role in making the world a
- 2:14:08Speaker 1: better place, as did the Enlightenment overall. I read a
- 2:14:13Speaker 1: really good book on history of business. What was it
- 2:14:18Speaker 1: called The corporation in the twentieth century, not the twenty first.
- 2:14:21Speaker 1: That's a different book. In the twentieth century. I can't, unfortunately,
- 2:14:25Speaker 1: remember the name of the author. I read a really
- 2:14:28Speaker 1: good book of trade God, but I don't remember the
- 2:14:32Speaker 1: names of the authors. Again, you'd have to email me
- 2:14:35Speaker 1: to get a list of the books. I'd have to
- 2:14:38Speaker 1: pull up my audible, which I guess I could do.
- 2:14:42Speaker 1: I could put up given that you're in for fifty bucks,
- 2:14:45Speaker 1: what is it? Five hundred bucks? Now I can at
- 2:14:49Speaker 1: least I can do is pull up audible. Audible. Let's
- 2:14:54Speaker 1: see library. Since How the Scotts Invented the Modern World
- 2:14:59Speaker 1: by author Homan is what I'm reading right now, almost
- 2:15:01Speaker 1: finished it. I'm on the final eleven minutes. Let's see
- 2:15:08Speaker 1: what did where's my library?
- 2:15:12Speaker 2: Uh?
- 2:15:13Speaker 3: The m.
- 2:15:15Speaker 1: That's not what I want. Oh, okay, yeah, I've read.
- 2:15:24Speaker 1: I've read a lot of books in the Enlightenment. Again,
- 2:15:26Speaker 1: it's connected to this book I'm writing about Christianity versus
- 2:15:29Speaker 1: the West, The Corporation and the twentieth Century by Richard
- 2:15:33Speaker 1: Lynn Gold is brilliant. Just an excellent book. If you've
- 2:15:37Speaker 1: got the patient's a big book. Excellent, excellent book. On
- 2:15:40Speaker 1: the history of American business. I read A splendid Exchange
- 2:15:46Speaker 1: about the history of trade by William Bunstein. Excellent, a
- 2:15:52Speaker 1: brilliant book. Again, there's some stuff that I don't agree with,
- 2:15:56Speaker 1: but generally good. I read A Strategy of Denial by
- 2:16:00Speaker 1: Bitch Kobe. I don't like it, but he's a senior
- 2:16:03Speaker 1: person in the Trumpet administration. I want to know what
- 2:16:05Speaker 1: his farm policy is going to be. Turns out he's
- 2:16:08Speaker 1: moving away from his arguments in a Strategy of Denial
- 2:16:12Speaker 1: to something else. I read Civilization by Neil Ferguson. I
- 2:16:16Speaker 1: was disappointed by that How the World Made the West,
- 2:16:21Speaker 1: which is a leftist book about how there is no
- 2:16:26Speaker 1: such thing as Western civilization, which is silly, and actually
- 2:16:31Speaker 1: the book proves the opposite. But it had fascinating facts,
- 2:16:35Speaker 1: a lot of really interesting facts. And then again I
- 2:16:38Speaker 1: read a lot of the I live at a lot
- 2:16:40Speaker 1: of Enlightenment books by the right. Oh. My favorite books
- 2:16:45Speaker 1: of the last couple of years The Closing of the
- 2:16:48Speaker 1: Western Mind and the Reopening of the Western Mind. The
- 2:16:55Speaker 1: Closing of the Western Mind and the Reopening of the
- 2:16:58Speaker 1: Western Mind. If you're interested in intellectual history, those two
- 2:17:08Speaker 1: great books, not just good books, great books, and really
- 2:17:12Speaker 1: a a foundation for well, not a foundation, I mean
- 2:17:19Speaker 1: they firmed and solidified my disdain for Christianity. And this
- 2:17:28Speaker 1: is a well known historian. They're really good. They're really
- 2:17:31Speaker 1: really good. Anyway, those are some of the books. Let's you.
- 2:17:37Speaker 1: Richard also asked, I have to read how the Scots
- 2:17:39Speaker 1: made them modern world. The author, author Whoman, wrote an
- 2:17:42Speaker 1: amazing book called Freedom's Four Gs but the Private Sector's
- 2:17:45Speaker 1: World in World War Two. Human also wrote a great
- 2:17:48Speaker 1: biography Douglas Macarthy. His best book, his best book, a
- 2:17:53Speaker 1: brilliant book. For this, he will go to heaven just
- 2:17:57Speaker 1: for this. Is The Cave and the which I've read
- 2:18:02Speaker 1: twice now, which is just brilliant. You've got if you
- 2:18:05Speaker 1: haven't read The Cave in the Light, Richard, Before the
- 2:18:07Speaker 1: Scots made the modern world much more important and much better.
- 2:18:12Speaker 1: Is The Cave and the Light by author Hermann, which
- 2:18:15Speaker 1: is the story of Western civilization taught explained through the
- 2:18:20Speaker 1: Prison of the Batter between Aristotle and Plato, which is
- 2:18:24Speaker 1: exactly on Rand's points about history, and Hermann makes it real,
- 2:18:29Speaker 1: makes her generalized point with some examples he fleshes out
- 2:18:35Speaker 1: and he actually cites I ran that is, he's got
- 2:18:39Speaker 1: a section of small a couple of paragraphs on I
- 2:18:41Speaker 1: ran in the book so really really really really really good.
- 2:18:47Speaker 1: So Cave in the Light. If you haven't read that,
- 2:18:50Speaker 1: that is a must for anybody interested in intellectual history
- 2:18:53Speaker 1: again before Scots made the modern world, the Cave and
- 2:18:56Speaker 1: the Light, that would be, together with the opening and
- 2:19:01Speaker 1: the closing of the Western Mind, at the top of
- 2:19:03Speaker 1: my list to read on intellectual history. Richard must must
- 2:19:11Speaker 1: have gotten a raise at his it is at work,
- 2:19:16Speaker 1: working at a law firm. I really really appreciate all
- 2:19:18Speaker 1: the support Richard. Thank you. I don't I don't think
- 2:19:21Speaker 1: he's made of money. Richard works hard for his money.
- 2:19:23Speaker 1: He's a self made lawyer and he's getting married soon,
- 2:19:27Speaker 1: so hopefully he's saving some money for that. He's not
- 2:19:30Speaker 1: spending at all on the Iran bookshow. All right, Silvano's
- 2:19:37Speaker 1: given that you've what you've said about the low about
- 2:19:40Speaker 1: how bad this administration has been so far, would you
- 2:19:43Speaker 1: care to speculate on some bad things the Haverst administration
- 2:19:47Speaker 1: might have done. There was so terrible. I heard so
- 2:19:50Speaker 1: many people excuse Trump despite the liberals. God, I mean,
- 2:19:55Speaker 1: that's a hard one. You have to put yourself in
- 2:19:57Speaker 1: a different frame of mind. Sure, and she'd have I've
- 2:20:00Speaker 1: been terrible in Israel. She would have been you know,
- 2:20:04Speaker 1: Trump has not been great on Israel, but he's been
- 2:20:07Speaker 1: good on Israel. And she would have been terrible in
- 2:20:10Speaker 1: Israel and hampered any efforts to defeat Ramas. She would
- 2:20:14Speaker 1: have been much worse than Biden enforced Israel. I think
- 2:20:19Speaker 1: ultimately negotiate a deal with Hamas, which would have really
- 2:20:23Speaker 1: done harm to Israel over the long run. Taxes would
- 2:20:28Speaker 1: have gone up. You probably would have had this latest
- 2:20:33Speaker 1: tax continuation of the taxes from Trump's first term. I
- 2:20:41Speaker 1: don't think she would have allowed it all to go
- 2:20:44Speaker 1: up to go away, but I think the corp of
- 2:20:48Speaker 1: tax would have gone up from twenty one percent maybe
- 2:20:50Speaker 1: twenty seven eight percent, But the personal taxes, particularly for
- 2:20:55Speaker 1: the high owners, would have gone up. There would have
- 2:20:57Speaker 1: been proposals, whether they could have passed or not, how
- 2:20:59Speaker 1: to tell to raise taxes underwealthy even more. They might
- 2:21:03Speaker 1: have even been proposals for wealth tax, but that's dubious
- 2:21:06Speaker 1: because it's probably not constitutional. What else would she have
- 2:21:12Speaker 1: done really really bad? I mean she would well, I
- 2:21:17Speaker 1: mean she would have been better on Ukraine than Trump spending.
- 2:21:22Speaker 1: I mean that depends on who would have won the
- 2:21:24Speaker 1: housand Senate. I mean, as you remember, my argument was
- 2:21:29Speaker 1: vote Republican House and Senate and vote for you know,
- 2:21:33Speaker 1: don't vote for Trump for president. So if you had
- 2:21:36Speaker 1: a Republican House and Senate, I believe spending would actually
- 2:21:39Speaker 1: be lower than it is under Trump, and deficits would
- 2:21:42Speaker 1: be lower under Trump because you'd get more tax revenue
- 2:21:45Speaker 1: and less spending. What else would she have done that's bad?
- 2:21:50Speaker 1: Oh anti trust, well to trust bad under Trump as well? Oh, environmentalism,
- 2:21:57Speaker 1: the environmentalist agenda would have gotten a huge boost. Uh.
- 2:22:02Speaker 1: You know, even though I think she would have continued
- 2:22:04Speaker 1: Biden's policy of allowing drilling. I mean Biden ultimately was
- 2:22:09Speaker 1: allowed a lot of drilling. She would have continued that
- 2:22:12Speaker 1: I think we we and he had somebody John Davis
- 2:22:16Speaker 1: can tell me I'm full of it, but this is fact.
- 2:22:18Speaker 5: Uh.
- 2:22:19Speaker 1: More was drilled in the United States under under Biden
- 2:22:23Speaker 1: than at any point in human in American history, and
- 2:22:26Speaker 1: more than today because it's gone down because the price
- 2:22:29Speaker 1: has come down, less incentives to drill. I think those
- 2:22:34Speaker 1: are those are the biggies, right, in front policy. Israel
- 2:22:37Speaker 1: would have been a big, big deal. She would have
- 2:22:39Speaker 1: been tough on China than Trump and tough on Russia
- 2:22:42Speaker 1: than Trump. She would have been tough bad on Israel,
- 2:22:50Speaker 1: god uh. And on domestic policy, tellbone, regulation, tellboon, banking,
- 2:22:57Speaker 1: tellblon energy, not so bad. On tax and spend, not
- 2:23:05Speaker 1: so bad on taxing spent And given how much with spending,
- 2:23:08Speaker 1: taxes have to go up at some point, you might
- 2:23:10Speaker 1: as well recognize that. Now. So that's some of the things.
- 2:23:18Speaker 1: But I'll give you this, she would have I don't
- 2:23:22Speaker 1: think she would have been as outrageously anti the rule
- 2:23:25Speaker 1: of law as Trump is. Andrew some religious adults become
- 2:23:32Speaker 1: serious about it as adults after formative years. Imagine the
- 2:23:36Speaker 1: damaged religious premisses can do to intelligence, precarious, precocious children,
- 2:23:41Speaker 1: the more egregious premises. The body is evil, abhorred. Yes,
- 2:23:46Speaker 1: and you can see that people struggle with getting rid
- 2:23:49Speaker 1: of the horrible religious premisses their whole life. They struggle
- 2:23:54Speaker 1: to get rid of those premisses that they were taught
- 2:23:56Speaker 1: when they were children. Religion is really, really, really destructive
- 2:24:02Speaker 1: to human individuals, particularly the children. Remo. I visited the
- 2:24:07Speaker 1: Thorbertson Museum yesterday in the Glyptotech the day before yesterday.
- 2:24:10Speaker 1: It was amazing. Thanks for the recommendation, my pleasure. They
- 2:24:13Speaker 1: are amazing. Both museums are amazing, particularly the Glyptotech. Thobton
- 2:24:18Speaker 1: is good. He's a little too new classic neoclassical for me,
- 2:24:21Speaker 1: but yes, he's still amazing relative to almost anything else.
- 2:24:27Speaker 1: REMO positive topic idea dedicating a show to one of
- 2:24:31Speaker 1: your greatest, non objectivest heroes like Steve Job or Mike Mulkin.
- 2:24:35Speaker 1: I am dying for a positive show. I'm gonna do
- 2:24:39Speaker 1: a member's only show on a Florence, a great city
- 2:24:43Speaker 1: and its history, so and with slides with with pictures.
- 2:24:46Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, don't don't give up on I
- 2:24:54Speaker 1: will do more positive shows primarily for the for the members.
- 2:24:58Speaker 1: So here's your encouragement to become a become a member.
- 2:25:04Speaker 1: I think I've given all my free I've gifted all
- 2:25:08Speaker 1: my free memberships that I could not to a jogo
- 2:25:12Speaker 1: with in Part one because of our mixed economies. Don't
- 2:25:15Speaker 1: you have an underlying understand Don't you have an underlying
- 2:25:17Speaker 1: understanding of what the good is? It's easy for us
- 2:25:21Speaker 1: to lurch in evil directions, as we've seen with Mega Phenomena,
- 2:25:25Speaker 1: but due to the fact that there is so much
- 2:25:27Speaker 1: good in our societies, it's hard for evil to sustain itself,
- 2:25:30Speaker 1: as opposed to nineteen twenties in Germany, where the culture
- 2:25:33Speaker 1: is evil to its core. I think that's probably true.
- 2:25:37Speaker 1: But we will see. It's it's going to be tough.
- 2:25:41Speaker 1: It's going to be hard to sustain the kind of
- 2:25:44Speaker 1: damage that we're seeing right now this country, blow aftter
- 2:25:49Speaker 1: blow after blow sustain, but we will see. I hope
- 2:25:52Speaker 1: you're right. Roland says, I think Christiani Versus the West
- 2:25:56Speaker 1: is a perfect title. Very much looking forward to it. Yep.
- 2:26:00Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I'm excited about it. It's going to
- 2:26:03Speaker 1: take a while. Look, you know, we're still we're still
- 2:26:07Speaker 1: they're still writing to do quite a bit. I think
- 2:26:10Speaker 1: editing and writing, and then there's to find finding a
- 2:26:14Speaker 1: publisher and finalizing it all and getting unpublished, and all
- 2:26:17Speaker 1: of that says a while to go. I feel a
- 2:26:20Speaker 1: sense of urgency right now. When Equals Unfair came out,
- 2:26:24Speaker 1: it was the perfect timing, except then Donald Trump ran
- 2:26:27Speaker 1: for president and nobody was talking about inequality of Everybody
- 2:26:31Speaker 1: was talking about Donald Trump. So it came out election
- 2:26:35Speaker 1: year twenty sixteen. In the fall. I'm hoping this year
- 2:26:40Speaker 1: the issue of Christianity is going to stay hot for
- 2:26:43Speaker 1: a long time, and it'll be the right book for
- 2:26:45Speaker 1: the right time, and it will resonate at the very
- 2:26:48Speaker 1: least with the remnants of the New Atheist. But we
- 2:26:51Speaker 1: will see, we will see, James, what are the advantages
- 2:26:56Speaker 1: and disadvantages of having discovered objectives so early in mankind's history? Well,
- 2:27:01Speaker 1: I mean, the earlier you discover it, the less prepared
- 2:27:05Speaker 1: people are for it. We're still a very young species,
- 2:27:12Speaker 1: particularly when you take into account that we've only discovered
- 2:27:15Speaker 1: what we are recently. And even though we discovered it
- 2:27:18Speaker 1: maybe twenty five hundred years ago, we forgot it for
- 2:27:22Speaker 1: a long time thanks to Christianity to the large extent,
- 2:27:24Speaker 1: and were only were kindling that knowledge now. So it's
- 2:27:29Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's hard to it's hard to for
- 2:27:35Speaker 1: I mean, I think Atlanta Peacock said, we're just too
- 2:27:37Speaker 1: young of a species for this for this philosophy. Still,
- 2:27:41Speaker 1: we still still need more knowledge, more integration, more experience
- 2:27:46Speaker 1: with the world for this philosophy, James, if they're left,
- 2:27:53Speaker 1: so if they'll lift is so much moder than the right,
- 2:27:56Speaker 1: as you claim, Why do they keep losing elections? Because
- 2:27:59Speaker 1: if feet is untenable for most Americans, because the idea
- 2:28:03Speaker 1: is untenable. It's not about smart, it's not about applying
- 2:28:06Speaker 1: it to elections. But they are. They're just they're just
- 2:28:09Speaker 1: better at math, the better at science, the better at
- 2:28:12Speaker 1: starting companies, the better at doing programming, the better at
- 2:28:17Speaker 1: the at the at the skills of the mind, those
- 2:28:21Speaker 1: time to be those tend to be leftists, and you know,
- 2:28:26Speaker 1: the intellectuals will corrupt, Like look, imn O. Cons was really, really,
- 2:28:30Speaker 1: really smart, probably a genius, but he was evil. So
- 2:28:34Speaker 1: the fact that you're intelligent does not the fact it's
- 2:28:37Speaker 1: just smart, does not mean that you're good, and does
- 2:28:41Speaker 1: not mean that you're right, and does not mean that
- 2:28:44Speaker 1: you know how to win elections. Cook a few years
- 2:28:52Speaker 1: ago Charlie Cook completely one hundred and eighty in his
- 2:28:55Speaker 1: view on the separation of church and state, saying that
- 2:28:58Speaker 1: the separation was a fabrication. Yeah, I mean a few
- 2:29:01Speaker 1: years ago Charlie Cook did a huge one hundred and
- 2:29:03Speaker 1: eighty on a lot of things, capitalism for example, and yeah,
- 2:29:08Speaker 1: I mean he became a Trumpist, and he adopted Christian
- 2:29:13Speaker 1: nationalism in a sense over the years. And that's why
- 2:29:16Speaker 1: I said Charlie Cook's ideas were really really bad. They
- 2:29:19Speaker 1: had been better and were becoming worse. Michael, should people
- 2:29:28Speaker 1: celebrating Charlie Cook's more to be fired? What if they're
- 2:29:30Speaker 1: highly productive employees? Well, I mean, yeah, it depends on
- 2:29:34Speaker 1: who they are. But generally, do you want to work
- 2:29:36Speaker 1: with somebody who thinks that killing is a way to
- 2:29:39Speaker 1: his old disputes? No? I don't, So yes, I think
- 2:29:43Speaker 1: they should be fired. I don't want to work with
- 2:29:47Speaker 1: people who think that it's okay to kill somebody for
- 2:29:50Speaker 1: his views. So I would fire them even if they
- 2:29:55Speaker 1: were productive. Find you find somebody else productive who's not.
- 2:29:58Speaker 1: But that's the problem when, as I said before, the
- 2:30:01Speaker 1: smart people also the leftists. That's not good. The productive
- 2:30:05Speaker 1: people also the leftist. Yeah, I mean, for example, Jennifer
- 2:30:12Speaker 1: says he was PROTEP. Charlie definitely was pro free trade,
- 2:30:18Speaker 1: you know eight years ago noney more not any more.
- 2:30:24Speaker 1: He became pro Towerist. How did that happen? Corruption of
- 2:30:30Speaker 1: the mind, Liam, Every day of your life is a
- 2:30:33Speaker 1: page in a history book that will never get written. Probably,
- 2:30:37Speaker 1: but yes, Liam says, people with nothing will help you
- 2:30:41Speaker 1: lose nothing everything. Yes, you do. You don't want people
- 2:30:45Speaker 1: with nothing unless say children, then it's okay, Then it's good.
- 2:30:51Speaker 1: P Gupta discussed disgusting at the wife for proclaiming forgiveness,
- 2:30:57Speaker 1: disgusted at the waye for progaming for goodness. I agree.
- 2:31:00Speaker 1: I was mad for longer my vegetarian, when my at
- 2:31:05Speaker 1: my vegetarian, my god vegetarian, my veterinarian, when my pet
- 2:31:10Speaker 1: dog died because of wrong diagnosis. Yeah, I know, I
- 2:31:18Speaker 1: think these I don't understand forgiveness, the whole idea of
- 2:31:20Speaker 1: forgiveness without something to cause you to forgive, without somebody
- 2:31:27Speaker 1: admitting their mistake and showing remorse and compensating for the damage,
- 2:31:33Speaker 1: there is no forgiveness, anonymous user. Isn't this visa reform
- 2:31:38Speaker 1: just going to encourage illegal immigration all the legal ways
- 2:31:41Speaker 1: of fading away? What it really encourages people to work
- 2:31:44Speaker 1: from outside the country, to go work for foreign companies
- 2:31:49Speaker 1: or to work for American companies, but not in their
- 2:31:52Speaker 1: offices in America. You know, five years so now you
- 2:31:55Speaker 1: might see or maybe next year you might see open
- 2:31:58Speaker 1: AI move its research division to run to Vancouver, Canada,
- 2:32:08Speaker 1: because in Vancouver, Canada, it will be able to hire
- 2:32:12Speaker 1: a talent from all over the world, and in Silicon
- 2:32:16Speaker 1: Valley it camped. That's what will happen. Companies will move
- 2:32:21Speaker 1: their important functions outside of the United States. Henry Elon,
- 2:32:32Speaker 1: I'll go to War of h one b tweet is
- 2:32:34Speaker 1: from last year before the backlash. Funny he's completely silent?
- 2:32:38Speaker 1: The be issue now is he? Oh? I got confused
- 2:32:41Speaker 1: by that. Sorry my mistake. I'll check that out. Whether
- 2:32:47Speaker 1: somebody retweeted that, whether he's he's completely silent now or not,
- 2:32:52Speaker 1: that would be interesting. Somebody put pressure on the administration
- 2:32:56Speaker 1: to drop the annual fee and to drop it for
- 2:32:59Speaker 1: existing workers, So it probably wasn't any alone because his
- 2:33:02Speaker 1: influence within this administration's fading proper. Do you think the
- 2:33:06Speaker 1: Supreme Court needs to act faster and blocking a lot
- 2:33:09Speaker 1: of the Trump admins unconstitutional insanity? I would like to
- 2:33:14Speaker 1: see them do it, yes, much faster, but I don't
- 2:33:17Speaker 1: think they will. I think they're going to take their time,
- 2:33:20Speaker 1: and I'm not sure they'll block at all. We'll see,
- 2:33:23Speaker 1: we'll know soon enough. They'll hear their tariff's case in
- 2:33:28Speaker 1: November and then we'll see from there, Kim. With all
- 2:33:32Speaker 1: the insanity going on, how are stocks still going up?
- 2:33:35Speaker 1: Good question? Stock markets often you know, see well a
- 2:33:44Speaker 1: few things. One stock market represent a fraction of the economy,
- 2:33:50Speaker 1: the most productive companies in the economy, but only some companies.
- 2:33:53Speaker 1: Much of the stock market is being driven right now
- 2:33:55Speaker 1: by tech stocks. The the smaller companies have not done
- 2:34:01Speaker 1: that well, not nearly as well as tech stocks. Stock
- 2:34:05Speaker 1: prices a driven by loge extent expectations about interest rates
- 2:34:10Speaker 1: interstates expected to go down. Stock market likes that when
- 2:34:14Speaker 1: interestates go down, asterid prices go up. Everything else constant,
- 2:34:18Speaker 1: and they believe that this massive investment in AI is
- 2:34:22Speaker 1: going to generate real productivity increases in these companies. Whether
- 2:34:27Speaker 1: an economy as a whole is hard to tell, but
- 2:34:30Speaker 1: the stock market can be very wrong. The stock Parkert
- 2:34:33Speaker 1: was going up significantly up all the way until we
- 2:34:39Speaker 1: hit a brick wall with a financial crisis, and then
- 2:34:42Speaker 1: it went down a lot and fast. So I don't
- 2:34:48Speaker 1: know how to time the market. But would I be
- 2:34:51Speaker 1: surprised by a big downward move in the stock market
- 2:34:54Speaker 1: in the next couple of years, No, I would not.
- 2:34:58Speaker 1: I just don't know when it's going to happ happen.
- 2:35:00Speaker 1: I a lot of what's happening in Stockland right now
- 2:35:02Speaker 1: doesn't completely make sense to me. It represents immense optimism.
- 2:35:09Speaker 1: The multiples these some of these stocks are trading at
- 2:35:14Speaker 1: are the multiples of the of the dot com bubble.
- 2:35:19Speaker 1: But you know, bitcoins at over one hundred thousand, what
- 2:35:23Speaker 1: do I know? People are willing to buy it? Bye
- 2:35:25Speaker 1: bye bye. People have a lot of money, That's one thing.
- 2:35:27Speaker 1: There is a lot of money out there, a lot
- 2:35:30Speaker 1: of money slushing around, and part of a lot of
- 2:35:33Speaker 1: that money, this is the money the Fit's created over
- 2:35:35Speaker 1: the last fifteen years. A lot of that money is
- 2:35:38Speaker 1: going into stocks. You can't there only so much stuff
- 2:35:41Speaker 1: you can buy with that money. We have our basics
- 2:35:44Speaker 1: taking care of so the money goes into housing and
- 2:35:48Speaker 1: it goes into stocks. It's not the only reason housing
- 2:35:53Speaker 1: is going up, but it certainly is one reason. Long term.
- 2:35:56Speaker 1: What's the greater threat to you Christianity Islam? It's not
- 2:35:59Speaker 1: even close. Christianity is much bigger threat. That is. Christianity's
- 2:36:05Speaker 1: going to take care of Islam. I've said this over
- 2:36:06Speaker 1: and over and over again. You saw the march in London,
- 2:36:09Speaker 1: recently you saw how reform is being successful. Reform is
- 2:36:14Speaker 1: going to do what they can to crush the influence
- 2:36:18Speaker 1: of Islam in Germany. Islam is going to be crushed
- 2:36:23Speaker 1: by future governments. In France, Lapen is coming to power,
- 2:36:27Speaker 1: and when she comes to power, she will crush the
- 2:36:29Speaker 1: influence of Islam. And once the influence of Islam has gone,
- 2:36:32Speaker 1: or what are we left with? We're left with Christian nationalism.
- 2:36:36Speaker 1: Islam will never take over the West, but Christianity might.
- 2:36:45Speaker 1: Islam is a foreign element which the West will reject.
- 2:36:53Speaker 1: Christianity they think is part of them, they think it's
- 2:36:57Speaker 1: what they are. They think that the West is Christian state,
- 2:37:00Speaker 1: will embrace it. The result is not the same. Islam
- 2:37:05Speaker 1: right now is worse. But Christianity in its form, in
- 2:37:08Speaker 1: the form that Putin and Oban and the these Catholics,
- 2:37:13Speaker 1: the Integralists in America and UH and elsewhere, take it
- 2:37:20Speaker 1: that Christianity is a disaster for Western civilization. It's the
- 2:37:26Speaker 1: it's the decline and and the you know, Western civilization receding, receding.
- 2:37:33Speaker 1: Why am I giving credence that I'm saying Christianity is
- 2:37:39Speaker 1: worse than Islam? And she says no, I must become
- 2:37:44Speaker 1: a Christian to fight Islam. My book, the book, the
- 2:37:48Speaker 1: New Book with Donald Watkins is based in answer to
- 2:37:50Speaker 1: I in Hersili. It's basically taking her on and saying, oh, no,
- 2:37:59Speaker 1: Western civilization is not Christianity, and Christianity is never the
- 2:38:03Speaker 1: answer for these things. Now, Oh in that sense, yeah,
- 2:38:10Speaker 1: But I don't think you need Christianity to fight a Slam.
- 2:38:13Speaker 1: I think Western civilization, enlagment values a much better way
- 2:38:18Speaker 1: to fight a Slam, a much better way to fight Islam,
- 2:38:22Speaker 1: and not not sulfer Christian theology or dark ages for it.
- 2:38:31Speaker 1: I don't know they will go dark agis, but you know,
- 2:38:33Speaker 1: the authoritarianism Christian theoritarians form. The best way to fight
- 2:38:36Speaker 1: Slam is with Western values, that is, with reason, with
- 2:38:41Speaker 1: self interest, with individual rights, with science. That's the way
- 2:38:44Speaker 1: you fight a Slam, and by kicking them out if
- 2:38:46Speaker 1: you need to. I have no problem with kicking them out.
- 2:38:49Speaker 1: You don't need Christianity for that. You just need that
- 2:38:51Speaker 1: balls for that, and you don't need Christianity to have balls,
- 2:39:01Speaker 1: Bunny says three. Eliminating Gaza City today by hamas where's
- 2:39:06Speaker 1: the idef It's not everywhere, and it hasn't occupied Gaza
- 2:39:09Speaker 1: City yet. And look, you know, even when it occupies,
- 2:39:13Speaker 1: it's a big space. And uh Hamas is in tunnels
- 2:39:17Speaker 1: and in alleyways and under the rubble. And yeah, it's
- 2:39:23Speaker 1: it's it's tough, it's difficult. Equal is unequal to reality.
- 2:39:29Speaker 1: As a brit I'm ashamed and disgusted by this. It's
- 2:39:33Speaker 1: just evil. Clearly the Nazis one in Europe just eighty
- 2:39:36Speaker 1: years later. I don't know what we're talking about, which
- 2:39:42Speaker 1: which thing did I say that we're talking about God,
- 2:39:48Speaker 1: I can't remember what I said about Britain that we're discussing.
- 2:39:55Speaker 1: I must have said something, sorry, equal to reality, I
- 2:39:58Speaker 1: can't remember and paraphrasing rand Oh, Palestine, I see the
- 2:40:04Speaker 1: recognition of Palestine. Thank you to the reality. You're right,
- 2:40:07Speaker 1: I mean, the Nazis haven't won, but bad guys have won.
- 2:40:10Speaker 1: Other bad guys are not all the bad guys in
- 2:40:13Speaker 1: the world the Nazis. Other bad guys have won, Andrew says,
- 2:40:17Speaker 1: paraphrasing Ran. One of the major horrible psychological consequences of
- 2:40:20Speaker 1: accepting altruism is the renunciation of one self esteem. Absolutely
- 2:40:25Speaker 1: altruism is the rejection of self esteem it's a rejection
- 2:40:28Speaker 1: of your value, your esteem, Jasper, do you think if
- 2:40:35Speaker 1: put in the same position as Israel, that Russia or
- 2:40:38Speaker 1: China would have won the war against Kamas by now
- 2:40:41Speaker 1: considering that they aren't just constrained by just war theory, Yes,
- 2:40:44Speaker 1: no question, they would have won it easily, quickly, thoroughly.
- 2:40:48Speaker 1: It would be over a long time ago, and there
- 2:40:50Speaker 1: would be a lot fewer protests and you know, a
- 2:40:53Speaker 1: lot fewer people complaining about it. John, do you receive
- 2:40:59Speaker 1: money for you from your role with the I AARI?
- 2:41:04Speaker 1: Is your show in any way supported by AOI? Yeah,
- 2:41:06Speaker 1: you know it's supported by AOI. They're one of the sponsors.
- 2:41:09Speaker 1: They're a sponsor of the show. So they give a
- 2:41:11Speaker 1: little bit of money for me to advertise the different
- 2:41:14Speaker 1: things on the show. So I advertise right now, I
- 2:41:19Speaker 1: ran live, I've advertised open conferences, of advertised other conferences.
- 2:41:24Speaker 1: So me advertising. They pay me the same exact same
- 2:41:27Speaker 1: amount of money that my other advertisers alex Epstein and
- 2:41:34Speaker 1: Handershot Wealth. They pay me the exact same thing on
- 2:41:36Speaker 1: a monthly basis to advertise their programs. Other than that,
- 2:41:41Speaker 1: AOI does not pay for anything regarding the show. They
- 2:41:44Speaker 1: pay me when I speak. When I go and speak
- 2:41:47Speaker 1: for them, they pay me. They pay me when I
- 2:41:49Speaker 1: teach for them, They pay me when I consult for them.
- 2:41:52Speaker 1: So I do work for AOI, but the show is
- 2:41:56Speaker 1: not an AOI show, although they do advertise on the
- 2:41:58Speaker 1: show as you can. I'm pretty open about Kim. I
- 2:42:04Speaker 1: heard Christian YouTubers say that the Enlightenment was actually in
- 2:42:07Speaker 1: the Dark Ages and the Enlightenment was actually bad for society.
- 2:42:10Speaker 1: I left, Yeah, somebody should parachute the bastard into the
- 2:42:14Speaker 1: Dark Ages and let him see what he thinks of that.
- 2:42:16Speaker 1: I mean, everybody who wants twelve to twenty should get
- 2:42:19Speaker 1: twelve twenty. They should be a country somewhere where they
- 2:42:22Speaker 1: have to live based on the Dark Ages, because that's
- 2:42:25Speaker 1: what they believe in. It's so disgusting, it's so corrupt,
- 2:42:30Speaker 1: it's so irrational, it's so antihistorical, and it's exactly why
- 2:42:36Speaker 1: I wrote the book. This is exactly what the book
- 2:42:39Speaker 1: is supposed to counter. Marius says, have you ever considered
- 2:42:44Speaker 1: multi streaming and other platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and Twitch.
- 2:42:48Speaker 1: I do already. I multi stream on YouTube x Facebook,
- 2:43:01Speaker 1: two Facebook channels, I haven't figured out how to stream
- 2:43:07Speaker 1: on TikTok and Instagram simultaneously. If I could figure it out,
- 2:43:11Speaker 1: if somebody could show me how to do it, I
- 2:43:12Speaker 1: would do it in a second. And I know nothing
- 2:43:16Speaker 1: about Twitch. I have no idea how to do it
- 2:43:17Speaker 1: on Twitch. But yeah, if I could stream on those
- 2:43:20Speaker 1: other platforms, I would. So I use restream as the
- 2:43:24Speaker 1: platform that restreams and if those are available there. I
- 2:43:30Speaker 1: see twitches here, but I don't have a Twitch account.
- 2:43:32Speaker 1: Oh TikTok Live is here, so I could. I could
- 2:43:35Speaker 1: sertainly do TikTok anyway, I will add those Thanks for
- 2:43:40Speaker 1: pointing that out. No reason not to. Since I use Restream,
- 2:43:44Speaker 1: I can restream to as many platforms as I want.
- 2:43:47Speaker 1: Is it worth getting a Twitch channel? Mary Ellen, ABC
- 2:43:52Speaker 1: will return Jimmy Kimmel Show to the air tomorrow. Looks
- 2:43:56Speaker 1: like free speech related. That is amazing. If that is true,
- 2:44:00Speaker 1: Thank you, Mary Ellen. That is just amazing. That is
- 2:44:02Speaker 1: good news. Now because I like Jimmy Kimmel, I hate him,
- 2:44:05Speaker 1: I despise him. But if it's basically Disney standing up
- 2:44:09Speaker 1: to the Trump administration at the MAGA and that is
- 2:44:13Speaker 1: very cool, I am hugely supportive of that move, all Volta,
- 2:44:22Speaker 1: how long are you staying in Italy? I'll I leave tomorrow,
- 2:44:26Speaker 1: but I've been here three abin here four weeks. I've
- 2:44:29Speaker 1: been here four weeks, and I leave tomorrow for Spain
- 2:44:33Speaker 1: for three days and on back home on Friday. David,
- 2:44:38Speaker 1: how close were you with John Ridpath? I discovered him
- 2:44:40Speaker 1: recently on YouTube. I was fairly close to John, not
- 2:44:44Speaker 1: very close, fairly close to John. I knew John for
- 2:44:46Speaker 1: many years. We talked regularly. It was on my board
- 2:44:52Speaker 1: for long a long time, until unfortunately his health did
- 2:44:55Speaker 1: not allow for it anymore. But yeah, I I knew
- 2:45:00Speaker 1: John from before I became CEO of the Iron institutent.
- 2:45:04Speaker 1: I got to know him really pretty well when I
- 2:45:06Speaker 1: was CEO of the Iron Institute. He was we were friends,
- 2:45:09Speaker 1: and he was a supporter of what I was doing.
- 2:45:12Speaker 1: And yeah, I was a good guy, a good guy,
- 2:45:14Speaker 1: and and yeah, good speaker. So I'm glad you discovered
- 2:45:19Speaker 1: him on YouTube. Andrew, in gifted class in third grade,
- 2:45:24Speaker 1: they had us blindfold ourselves to pretend to feel what
- 2:45:27Speaker 1: it was like to be blind. I remember that night,
- 2:45:30Speaker 1: raked with guilt from my sight only in an altruistic culture. Yeah,
- 2:45:34Speaker 1: I mean that is horrible. I mean it might be
- 2:45:37Speaker 1: interesting to have that experience, but not in the context
- 2:45:41Speaker 1: of guilt, not in the context of feel sorry for
- 2:45:44Speaker 1: these people, in the context of broadening your horizons, but
- 2:45:48Speaker 1: but not not more than that. Linda, how the Scots
- 2:45:55Speaker 1: invented is now on my kindle. Thanks, thank you. Constantine
- 2:46:00Speaker 1: Kissing quoted Rand in his last video positively negatively. What
- 2:46:04Speaker 1: did he say? I didn't see that, Neo. Should there
- 2:46:09Speaker 1: be a rule in politics where if you want to
- 2:46:11Speaker 1: join you have to be pro West and to have
- 2:46:14Speaker 1: rejected their own philosophy? No, I mean political parties can
- 2:46:24Speaker 1: create whatever rules they want, and it would be great
- 2:46:27Speaker 1: if there was a Western civilization party that had that
- 2:46:29Speaker 1: as a rule. But no, I don't think in politics
- 2:46:33Speaker 1: you'd have to do that. I think that in a
- 2:46:37Speaker 1: proper constitutional government, in order to vote, you would have
- 2:46:43Speaker 1: to express at least knowledge of what Western civilities, what
- 2:46:50Speaker 1: the system of government was. But I don't know that
- 2:46:54Speaker 1: you'd have to acquire knowledge of Western civilization. I like numbers.
- 2:47:05Speaker 1: Thoughts on destiny being demonetized on YouTube. I have no
- 2:47:07Speaker 1: thoughts on it because I don't really know why they
- 2:47:10Speaker 1: demonetized them, So it's a really a question of why
- 2:47:12Speaker 1: they did it. But YouTube is a private company. They
- 2:47:15Speaker 1: can do whatever they want. They can demonetize me. I
- 2:47:18Speaker 1: am incredibly thankful to YouTube. Whether it's right decision or
- 2:47:22Speaker 1: wrong decision, I don't know because I don't know the facts.
- 2:47:26Speaker 1: I know that legally and morally they have every right
- 2:47:29Speaker 1: to do what they want. But the question is, wasn't
- 2:47:37Speaker 1: just And I don't know the answer to that because
- 2:47:39Speaker 1: I need to know what happened, so I will look
- 2:47:42Speaker 1: into it. Thanks for pointing it out, friend Happa, thank
