1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,640 I have the device. Adam curry, John C Devorah. It's Thursday 2 00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:09,090 July 12 2018. This is your award winning get my nation media 3 00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:11,580 assassination episode 1050. 4 00:00:11,610 --> 00:00:15,030 This is no agenda. No Brexit 5 00:00:15,030 --> 00:00:18,300 World Cup. What is wrong with the elites? We're broadcasting 6 00:00:18,300 --> 00:00:20,640 live from the Capitol drilling Star state here in downtown 7 00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:24,210 Austin Jay Haas in the studio in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam 8 00:00:24,210 --> 00:00:24,600 curry 9 00:00:24,660 --> 00:00:27,990 and from Northern Silicon Valley where they're chopping down dead 10 00:00:27,990 --> 00:00:32,220 trees in front of the house. I'm John C. Devorah. Raglan 11 00:00:32,220 --> 00:00:33,030 Buzzkill. 12 00:00:34,650 --> 00:00:39,360 I was so disappointed yesterday. I was rooting for him. 13 00:00:41,250 --> 00:00:42,420 I don't know what they're thinking. 14 00:00:44,340 --> 00:00:46,860 What they're thinking, is Croatia just a better team? 15 00:00:47,790 --> 00:00:50,760 Well, that was always the case. But that's not the way it works. 16 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,540 I know. I was sitting there too. Like who didn't get the memo? 17 00:00:54,660 --> 00:00:57,960 Are these guys just mutiny? Is it mutiny that we see here from 18 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:02,430 the Croatians. Congratulations, though, your Slavic brethren. On 19 00:01:02,430 --> 00:01:04,710 the way to the to the to the final 20 00:01:05,910 --> 00:01:09,900 place do I recommend anyone wants to take an offbeat 21 00:01:09,900 --> 00:01:13,440 vacation. Croatia has more stuff. There's more cool places 22 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,690 in Croatia than anywhere else in the European area in the 23 00:01:15,930 --> 00:01:17,190 Adriatic is better than Italy. 24 00:01:17,580 --> 00:01:20,610 Did we miss something about Croatia? Is there something in 25 00:01:20,610 --> 00:01:24,210 play maybe that that they're doing so well that we just 26 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,450 didn't understand that we've eyes focused too much on the 27 00:01:27,450 --> 00:01:30,570 Brexit World Cup and they didn't throw it that way? Because 28 00:01:30,570 --> 00:01:32,760 there's something else happening. Could Croatia become 29 00:01:32,910 --> 00:01:35,160 me? How many people live in Croatia? Like 2 million people? 30 00:01:35,490 --> 00:01:39,450 No, no, I think it's more than that. We can look it up. We 31 00:01:39,450 --> 00:01:47,580 shouldn't just be like everybody else. Asian. 32 00:01:48,750 --> 00:01:51,810 Pop you late 4.171. 33 00:01:52,140 --> 00:01:54,270 That sounds right. Yeah. Okay. So small 34 00:01:54,270 --> 00:01:55,980 country. Yeah. 35 00:01:57,030 --> 00:02:00,810 Exactly. On the other side of the Adriatic from Italy, Italy, 36 00:02:01,290 --> 00:02:06,390 parallels Italy. And it has the same winegrowing characteristics 37 00:02:06,390 --> 00:02:08,130 as Italy. They make a lot of good wine there. 38 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:13,440 Do they have a port? It's all ports. Okay. Because, you know, 39 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,050 that's where the Chinese are trying to get in pretty close 40 00:02:16,050 --> 00:02:22,560 there with their with their sea route. Well, maybe it's just, 41 00:02:22,890 --> 00:02:28,170 maybe it's just a fair game golf. What am I thinking? Well, 42 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:33,240 let's see they have similar colored flags. So it can't be 43 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:39,060 the flag? I don't know. I don't know. I won't be able to predict 44 00:02:39,060 --> 00:02:42,000 this one. I've all predicted France is going to win. 45 00:02:42,030 --> 00:02:45,450 Well, France shouldn't be the better team. But again, what if 46 00:02:45,450 --> 00:02:48,060 just Croatia just wins what an upset that would be. 47 00:02:48,510 --> 00:02:51,540 If Croatia wins the World Cup when France hasn't won it for 40 48 00:02:51,540 --> 00:02:54,930 years? Something like that? No, that's no I think it's got to 49 00:02:54,930 --> 00:02:58,200 assuage for France. They've had all the riots that we reported 50 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,390 on it, but nobody else is reporting on all the riots 51 00:03:00,540 --> 00:03:02,760 throughout the country. They need it. They need 52 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,930 a win. France needs a little boost. Yeah. 53 00:03:08,130 --> 00:03:11,460 Yes. Okay. And they may have also considered the fact that if 54 00:03:11,460 --> 00:03:14,790 it was France, England, it would have been a lot of hooligans 55 00:03:14,790 --> 00:03:17,340 that have been a massive riots that are broken out, they would 56 00:03:17,340 --> 00:03:18,960 have give the games a bad name. 57 00:03:19,950 --> 00:03:23,340 This is perhaps true. I don't know I just wasn't it I was 58 00:03:23,340 --> 00:03:26,010 really expecting England to win and they had everything going 59 00:03:26,010 --> 00:03:30,630 for him. But then again, at back home things not so good. Things 60 00:03:30,630 --> 00:03:34,500 Not so good back home. With with Brexit. 61 00:03:35,220 --> 00:03:40,290 No Johnson and a couple other people quit the cabinet and then 62 00:03:40,290 --> 00:03:43,620 they got a send off from Theresa May which was something of an 63 00:03:43,620 --> 00:03:46,620 embarrassment because there was hooting and hollering I mean 64 00:03:46,620 --> 00:03:48,960 this get you thinking you're the guy soars the government for so 65 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,920 long and they just mock him as he's leaving. Boris, I have a 66 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:53,280 clip. 67 00:03:53,519 --> 00:03:58,109 Oh, well, Boris always was kind of a guy. I think he'd liked 68 00:03:58,109 --> 00:03:59,099 being mocked. 69 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,520 Yeah, but this is kind of a ridiculous situation. I thought 70 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:07,230 it was it was rude. I'm just saying the Brits always bitching 71 00:04:07,230 --> 00:04:10,170 about Trump being rude and this is them. Mr. Speaker, 72 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:14,100 I want to pay tribute to my Right Honourable friend, the 73 00:04:14,100 --> 00:04:19,680 members, the members, the members for wholesome price and 74 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,400 Houghton and Oxbridge and South Islip for their work over the 75 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:33,510 last few years. We do agree about the best way of delivering 76 00:04:33,510 --> 00:04:36,210 our shared commitment to honor the results of the referendum. 77 00:04:36,660 --> 00:04:39,390 But I want to recognize the work of the former Secretary of State 78 00:04:39,390 --> 00:04:42,870 for Exiting the European Union for the work he did to establish 79 00:04:42,870 --> 00:04:47,010 a new department and steer through Parliament some of the 80 00:04:47,010 --> 00:04:51,930 most important legislation for generations. And similarly to 81 00:04:51,930 --> 00:04:54,180 recognize the passion that the former Foreign Secretary 82 00:04:54,180 --> 00:05:05,250 demonstrated in promoting in promoting and promoting the 83 00:05:05,250 --> 00:05:06,510 unseemly atmosphere. 84 00:05:07,919 --> 00:05:10,499 I want to hear about these important matters. 85 00:05:12,150 --> 00:05:14,760 And I think the house should the Prime Minister, 86 00:05:15,060 --> 00:05:18,210 thank you that the former Foreign Secretary demonstrated 87 00:05:18,210 --> 00:05:21,030 in promoting a global Britain to the world as we leave the 88 00:05:21,030 --> 00:05:24,720 European Union. I'm also pleased to welcome my honourable friend, 89 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,690 the member for Isha and Walton as the new Secretary of State. 90 00:05:29,670 --> 00:05:35,760 So I like you know, having lived in the UK, I really do 91 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,610 understand this humor, and I think Boris Johnson probably 92 00:05:38,610 --> 00:05:40,170 appreciated that too. It was funny. 93 00:05:40,770 --> 00:05:44,160 That was funny. So the way Martin matters, I get a kick out 94 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:48,210 of speaker. Yes. important matters. 95 00:05:48,270 --> 00:05:51,840 The way I understand what happened that caused this 96 00:05:51,870 --> 00:05:56,040 existential crisis is that Theresa May had a big pile out 97 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,010 with the checkers, which I had, I didn't know what the checkers 98 00:05:59,010 --> 00:06:04,140 was. It's just some old stodgy mansion that I guess that was 99 00:06:04,140 --> 00:06:06,870 they have their meeting, as you go out there, hang out and 100 00:06:06,900 --> 00:06:12,120 drink. And but apparently, she had already come up with some 101 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,540 plan to which I don't even know if the contents have been made 102 00:06:15,540 --> 00:06:19,710 public exactly what the plan was or what the deal was. And I 103 00:06:19,710 --> 00:06:24,060 think the the real accusation is that she had already pre cleared 104 00:06:24,060 --> 00:06:27,660 this with Angela Merkel. Before she spoke to anybody else. I 105 00:06:27,660 --> 00:06:34,320 have a clip here from Jacob Riis, MOG, mug. I've no idea who 106 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,900 he is, but I like what he was saying, was on the news in the 107 00:06:36,900 --> 00:06:38,700 UK. So I thought, Oh, this makes sense. 108 00:06:38,730 --> 00:06:43,410 She is the one who has put these proposals together at Chequers. 109 00:06:43,410 --> 00:06:46,650 She's the one who has to take them to Brussels. And by saying 110 00:06:46,650 --> 00:06:49,560 that what she's come up with you don't support? How can you 111 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,620 square that for saying that she still has your confidence? Well, 112 00:06:52,650 --> 00:06:55,830 I think they may have been taken to Brussels and to Berlin before 113 00:06:55,830 --> 00:06:59,220 they were presented to checkers, which is a serious question. And 114 00:06:59,220 --> 00:07:01,740 there's another question about how they were drawn up because 115 00:07:01,740 --> 00:07:04,650 they were drawn up in secret without telling the Secretary of 116 00:07:04,650 --> 00:07:07,410 State for leaving the European Union, David Davis, what was 117 00:07:07,410 --> 00:07:10,860 going on? Whilst his department was working on a white paper? I 118 00:07:10,860 --> 00:07:14,280 don't think it has been handled in a proper governmental system 119 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,460 in accordance with our constitutional norms. But how do 120 00:07:17,460 --> 00:07:18,150 I maintain it? So 121 00:07:18,150 --> 00:07:21,180 Can Can I just clarify, are you accusing the prime minister of 122 00:07:21,180 --> 00:07:25,380 having effectively pre agreed what she was going to ultimately 123 00:07:25,380 --> 00:07:28,320 come up with at the end of checkers with Brussels? 124 00:07:28,470 --> 00:07:31,260 No, I'm just noting that she went to see the German 125 00:07:31,260 --> 00:07:35,250 chancellor just before these proposals were put forward, 126 00:07:35,460 --> 00:07:38,850 which seem not to be unwelcome to Mrs. Merkel. I think that is 127 00:07:38,850 --> 00:07:41,640 an interesting point to note. But it's not within the norms of 128 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,550 the Constitution to discuss British policy with other 129 00:07:44,550 --> 00:07:47,400 leaders before it's presented the cabinet. So I'm concerned 130 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,730 about this process, and I think the result of it is bad. But 131 00:07:50,730 --> 00:07:53,310 there are many other areas of policy where I support the Prime 132 00:07:53,310 --> 00:07:55,800 Minister. So the prime minister personally retains my 133 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,920 confidence, but this policy does not and I will not support it. 134 00:07:59,100 --> 00:08:02,190 So there's Jacob Riis. Mog is a member of parliament, 135 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:06,090 conservative. So it's her her own her own party. So it sounds 136 00:08:06,090 --> 00:08:08,580 like you know, she was in cahoots with Angola? 137 00:08:10,260 --> 00:08:11,460 Well, it sounds like to me. 138 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,660 They were also they were Boris's note that he sent in his 139 00:08:15,660 --> 00:08:18,990 resignation had a couple of points that I think should be at 140 00:08:18,990 --> 00:08:25,170 least commented upon. He says that she has pretty much and he 141 00:08:25,170 --> 00:08:28,380 cites an example that apparently has been going on forever, which 142 00:08:28,380 --> 00:08:33,240 is the the killing of bicyclists in the City of London? Yes. 143 00:08:33,750 --> 00:08:38,430 Because they can't come up with any legislation. And he says to 144 00:08:38,430 --> 00:08:40,500 this day, they haven't come up with and he's mentioning these 145 00:08:40,500 --> 00:08:44,190 bicyclists are mostly women for some reason. He says they can't 146 00:08:44,190 --> 00:08:47,040 come up with any legislation because the commentary is always 147 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:51,210 well, let's let the EU legislate it. And he's believes that all 148 00:08:51,210 --> 00:08:54,180 they're doing is just passing off all their responsibilities 149 00:08:54,180 --> 00:08:57,570 to the EU, so they don't have to do anything. And it says this is 150 00:08:57,570 --> 00:09:00,300 not what Brexit is about. It's about getting our independence 151 00:09:00,300 --> 00:09:03,000 back. And so he quit. Yeah. 152 00:09:03,540 --> 00:09:06,300 And the foreign secretary, foreign minister, Foreign 153 00:09:06,300 --> 00:09:11,310 Secretary as well. No, no, no, not the foreign the that's what 154 00:09:11,310 --> 00:09:13,350 Boris Johnson is. Who's the other guy who resigned 155 00:09:14,370 --> 00:09:17,760 there was a couple of Brexit experts or something. Oh, yeah, 156 00:09:17,790 --> 00:09:20,670 the Brexit who others Brexit Minister Yes, that's right, 157 00:09:20,670 --> 00:09:25,470 David. Buddy so I mean, is it going to come down to what we 158 00:09:25,470 --> 00:09:28,740 predicted will to just be a do over is that what's going to 159 00:09:28,740 --> 00:09:31,530 happen but will may get kicked out? I mean, how does this work 160 00:09:31,530 --> 00:09:34,140 over there? How do these well, they call him election year with 161 00:09:34,140 --> 00:09:37,290 them there you should know how to work no, I'm kidding. You 162 00:09:37,290 --> 00:09:39,720 have another election they get kick her out. She could lose her 163 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,360 majority. There's a million things that can happen. But the 164 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,540 way it looks is that no, they're not going to have another redo. 165 00:09:45,540 --> 00:09:49,800 They're just going to kind of form their their Brexit strategy 166 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:53,100 is going to be to kind of like, it's like this whole thing is a 167 00:09:53,100 --> 00:09:57,840 scam. So the strategy is a scam. It's like, no, no, no, we're 168 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,930 gonna let you guys call the shots like you used to you were 169 00:10:00,930 --> 00:10:03,660 gonna you can do what you want which ray will do whatever you 170 00:10:03,660 --> 00:10:09,150 say we're just going to be okay we're gonna be a colony is the 171 00:10:09,150 --> 00:10:13,410 EU in the EU we're going to be a good they're gonna be become 172 00:10:13,410 --> 00:10:15,570 Puerto Rico of the EU 173 00:10:17,490 --> 00:10:20,040 well they already were a kind of like that in a way 174 00:10:21,300 --> 00:10:22,170 they still had their own thing 175 00:10:22,170 --> 00:10:24,720 I think they were one of the really one of the cornerstone 176 00:10:24,750 --> 00:10:28,440 operations and stuff they would kept giving up more and more 177 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,110 sovereignty to Brussels. Yeah, 178 00:10:31,110 --> 00:10:34,200 it's a disaster. I like the comparison of Puerto Rico. I 179 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,080 think that's gonna stick with that one. and Puerto Ricans 180 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,450 everywhere now hate you know, they 181 00:10:39,449 --> 00:10:42,209 shouldn't hate me Britain's a good place to compare themselves 182 00:10:42,209 --> 00:10:43,289 to Oh, 183 00:10:43,290 --> 00:10:47,670 yeah. Yeah. Well, yes, for Guam, 184 00:10:47,670 --> 00:10:49,740 Puerto Ricans know that they should need to be a state that 185 00:10:49,740 --> 00:10:53,520 should get you know, crap or get off the pot kind of thing. And 186 00:10:53,550 --> 00:10:57,420 they're deras Puerto Rico is not treated well. Britain is going 187 00:10:57,420 --> 00:10:58,980 to be in that same situation. 188 00:10:59,250 --> 00:11:03,420 The plan that I read about well this was course reported by the 189 00:11:03,420 --> 00:11:08,040 sun so take it for what you want. Their headline was that 190 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,710 ministers or parliament have drawn up secret plans to 191 00:11:10,710 --> 00:11:15,450 stockpile processed food in the event EU divorce talks collapse 192 00:11:16,170 --> 00:11:19,050 so that they will be able to show Brussels that no deal is 193 00:11:19,050 --> 00:11:20,040 not a bluff. 194 00:11:22,380 --> 00:11:23,460 So in other words, 195 00:11:24,570 --> 00:11:28,380 right if it doesn't already the no deal is is falling apart 196 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,350 Yeah, so that's why they're stockpiling processed food for 197 00:11:31,350 --> 00:11:33,030 the people of England to eat 198 00:11:33,060 --> 00:11:35,490 but they're gonna have to nice another one of these world war 199 00:11:35,490 --> 00:11:39,540 two rescue things going on with its ships ships have to go over 200 00:11:39,540 --> 00:11:43,950 there and drop drop Air Drop it that will do get fish the whole 201 00:11:43,950 --> 00:11:45,570 areas ran by fish 202 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,000 Why don't we I think we should do a crowd fund and send a mac 203 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,660 and cheese Yeah, America a Americans do love you here have 204 00:11:54,660 --> 00:12:03,420 some boxes of craft. Box love. You love you. All right. Well, 205 00:12:03,420 --> 00:12:08,460 meanwhile, President Trump is is is he already there? The honest 206 00:12:08,460 --> 00:12:12,540 way to meet to Teresa Teresa. I think it is official 207 00:12:12,540 --> 00:12:16,380 moment. I think he he might be he might be I mean, I think NATO 208 00:12:16,380 --> 00:12:19,620 talks are over I think I don't know what the timeline is 209 00:12:19,620 --> 00:12:22,170 because the way they present it to the American public with the 210 00:12:22,170 --> 00:12:26,040 mainstream media is is unless he says something incredibly 211 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,920 stupid. or insulting Oh, it 212 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,400 doesn't matter what he does is he'll it'll be perceived as 213 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:36,150 insulting regardless. Yeah, they have this this blimp they're 214 00:12:36,150 --> 00:12:42,060 gonna fly the the Trump baby blimp. Yeah. And which Yeah, 215 00:12:42,060 --> 00:12:45,210 it's like, that's a big thing in the news in the UK. And yes, 216 00:12:45,210 --> 00:12:47,670 it's like one of those things everyone can have a little talk 217 00:12:47,670 --> 00:12:50,640 about, is it proper? Or is it improper? Should should it be 218 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:54,330 allowed to not be allowed? And of course, the Decon, the Mayor 219 00:12:54,330 --> 00:12:56,850 of London is getting a lot of heat for allowing it for 220 00:12:56,850 --> 00:13:00,060 providing the permit. He's probably his idea. Well, one of 221 00:13:00,060 --> 00:13:08,880 the organizers was on MSNBC. Was this one of the organizers? I 222 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,030 think so. Let me see what this is this. This was I think it was 223 00:13:12,030 --> 00:13:15,510 American woman or at least American sounding woman who is 224 00:13:15,510 --> 00:13:18,690 supposed to be one of the spokespeople for this for this 225 00:13:18,690 --> 00:13:20,790 event we see with this clip as well. 226 00:13:22,140 --> 00:13:25,980 giant inflatable Trump baby we're trying to protest, 227 00:13:26,250 --> 00:13:29,070 basically Trump's policies and toxic politics. 228 00:13:29,220 --> 00:13:31,560 How can this be a British initiative unless she's an 229 00:13:31,590 --> 00:13:34,770 expat? She's not really positioned that way. But 230 00:13:34,770 --> 00:13:35,160 anyways, 231 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,700 what we're kind of trying to do that with with a humorous note. 232 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,020 And with the humor What exactly are you trying to say about 233 00:13:43,020 --> 00:13:43,650 Donald Trump? 234 00:13:43,710 --> 00:13:48,960 Well, we went with a baby because we feel that Trump's has 235 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,380 a lot of the character characteristics of a baby. Such 236 00:13:52,380 --> 00:13:55,830 as throwing your toys out of the pram or is that on the rotation? 237 00:13:55,980 --> 00:14:00,330 Oh, yeah, yeah, like Yeah, he's an adult in the room. Rotation, 238 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:01,770 baby, big baby. 239 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,890 Um, Trump's has a lot of the character characteristics of a 240 00:14:04,890 --> 00:14:09,060 baby, such as throwing your toys out of the pram or throwing 241 00:14:09,060 --> 00:14:12,450 tantrums. And we think that those qualities are very 242 00:14:12,450 --> 00:14:16,980 problematic for the leader of a nation. So that's why we decided 243 00:14:16,980 --> 00:14:21,540 to highlight those the blimp. I think what we were considering 244 00:14:21,540 --> 00:14:24,000 when we were planning this protest is kind of what would 245 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:28,830 have an effect. So we've seen that moral outrage doesn't work 246 00:14:28,830 --> 00:14:31,980 with Donald Trump. He just harnesses that outrage and kind 247 00:14:31,980 --> 00:14:36,630 of to blame shift onto people who he is outraging general, 248 00:14:36,660 --> 00:14:39,810 just normal diplomacy doesn't work with him reasoning doesn't 249 00:14:39,810 --> 00:14:42,810 work with him, but he really hates being mocked. So that 250 00:14:42,810 --> 00:14:45,480 definitely came into play when we were when we were designing 251 00:14:45,690 --> 00:14:46,140 the blimp. 252 00:14:46,500 --> 00:14:49,770 So what do you get to happen at these protests? How do you hope 253 00:14:49,770 --> 00:14:52,680 that they will resonate both in your country and potentially 254 00:14:52,710 --> 00:14:55,500 if they do it right and the thing will pop because he's so 255 00:14:55,500 --> 00:14:57,870 thin skinned and will deflate and then they'll have a double 256 00:14:57,870 --> 00:14:58,290 whammy 257 00:14:58,350 --> 00:15:01,170 test. How do you hope that they will rise? Nate, both in your 258 00:15:01,170 --> 00:15:03,540 country and potentially in hours this week? Well, I 259 00:15:03,540 --> 00:15:06,720 think one of the reasons why we protest is to send a message to 260 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,500 people who have been affected by Trump's disastrous policies, 261 00:15:10,650 --> 00:15:14,010 migrants, refugees, but also people who are affected by 262 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:15,870 climate change, I guess. 263 00:15:17,460 --> 00:15:20,730 People who are affected by climate change, it's a message 264 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:24,750 people who are affected, affected by it's out of control 265 00:15:24,750 --> 00:15:25,200 seas, 266 00:15:25,260 --> 00:15:28,710 migrants, refugees, but also people who are affected by 267 00:15:28,740 --> 00:15:31,500 climate change. And I guess one of the messages that we're 268 00:15:31,500 --> 00:15:34,860 trying to send is that we're still here and we're still 269 00:15:34,860 --> 00:15:37,650 resisting. Resisting you know, there's this is 270 00:15:37,650 --> 00:15:41,310 no Brit, this. I don't know how this fits together. And I did 271 00:15:41,310 --> 00:15:45,180 try to find out who's who the originator is an English guy. 272 00:15:45,450 --> 00:15:49,920 But he talks about him instead of this dingbat, because she is 273 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,980 the one of the spokes holes for the project. You see, that's 274 00:15:52,980 --> 00:15:55,140 what he announced is that she would be doing all that, but 275 00:15:55,140 --> 00:15:58,950 when she's talking about these are Americanism term she's using 276 00:15:59,010 --> 00:16:02,040 I guess one of the messages that we're trying to send is that 277 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,380 we're still here and we're still resisting, 278 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,530 resisting that's that's not a British thing. That's this is a 279 00:16:07,530 --> 00:16:08,010 US 280 00:16:09,030 --> 00:16:11,790 and, you know, they're still someone on their side. And from 281 00:16:11,790 --> 00:16:14,940 the messages that we've had, it seems to really resonate. And I 282 00:16:14,940 --> 00:16:18,360 feel we feel that we've definitely accomplished at least 283 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,150 that goal with this protest. 284 00:16:21,810 --> 00:16:27,090 I wonder where she switches from I feel too we feel yourself. 285 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:31,410 Yeah, error there. Maybe. Maybe I feel we feel 286 00:16:31,589 --> 00:16:34,019 I don't even know if it's probably not that important. 287 00:16:34,019 --> 00:16:35,249 It's just it's everyone's 288 00:16:36,150 --> 00:16:39,870 give me an idea. I think the British public should have this 289 00:16:39,870 --> 00:16:43,710 idea in mind. I don't know what the legality is of BB guns or 290 00:16:43,710 --> 00:16:45,270 pellet guns in a country. 291 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:49,530 Oh, no, there's already there's already rewards out for people 292 00:16:49,530 --> 00:16:53,580 with drones to go and pop it fly the drone into it. 293 00:16:53,580 --> 00:16:56,760 That's what I was thinking there shouldn't be some popping 294 00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:01,830 mechanism floating around the United States in a situation 295 00:17:01,830 --> 00:17:04,350 like this, there'd be some good sniper rifle, which is take care 296 00:17:04,350 --> 00:17:05,190 of this that yeah, 297 00:17:05,220 --> 00:17:10,020 I have kind of expects some brazen dude to just fly his 298 00:17:10,020 --> 00:17:11,190 drone right into it. 299 00:17:12,420 --> 00:17:14,700 That would be the way to go. And just you have to, you know, 300 00:17:14,700 --> 00:17:16,860 sacrifice the drone ball. Yeah. 301 00:17:16,859 --> 00:17:19,409 Can you imagine a swarm of drones just attacking this 302 00:17:19,409 --> 00:17:19,829 thing. 303 00:17:22,619 --> 00:17:26,249 Finally penetrating that would be the thing caves in it falls 304 00:17:26,249 --> 00:17:29,579 on top of some power lines, because obviously, it looks like 305 00:17:29,579 --> 00:17:34,199 it's aluminized that we keep it sturdy. On some power lines 306 00:17:34,199 --> 00:17:36,839 short out the whole city of London, because 307 00:17:37,649 --> 00:17:40,199 now you're just daydreaming. You just wish them 308 00:17:40,199 --> 00:17:43,619 hope. And I'm not daydreaming. This is just wishful thinking. 309 00:17:43,650 --> 00:17:46,680 We were on the balcony the other night, you know, just a bit 310 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:51,300 before sundown. And we're up high. We're 29 floor and Tina 311 00:17:51,300 --> 00:17:55,650 says Holy crap. And there was a drone looking right at us then 312 00:17:55,650 --> 00:18:00,540 and this thing was powerful. It flew all over the city. And I 313 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:04,500 think maybe the operator was down on the on the lawn of the 314 00:18:05,250 --> 00:18:08,130 of the what is it the Dell center? 315 00:18:08,580 --> 00:18:11,370 Everybody should have one of those net guns. 316 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,980 Well, you know, the thing is, if I if I were to shoot it, it 317 00:18:13,980 --> 00:18:17,100 would it could fall on somebody down below. It's just the street 318 00:18:17,100 --> 00:18:20,130 down there. So that's not a not a great idea. But in 319 00:18:20,130 --> 00:18:22,440 thick shooting, I think netting it Oh, 320 00:18:23,940 --> 00:18:26,130 that isn't that from the cartoons. I don't know if that 321 00:18:26,130 --> 00:18:31,320 really exists a net gun. But it's so rude. You feel so 322 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,870 violated. It's like what who was doing this 323 00:18:34,230 --> 00:18:36,780 is what I would net it perfect if you could net it with a 324 00:18:36,780 --> 00:18:39,420 fishing line and you can just throw a net over and then pull 325 00:18:39,420 --> 00:18:45,060 it into the place and then stomp on it. And then since like a bug 326 00:18:45,300 --> 00:18:51,180 in that sense, so you throw a paper plane down and got your 327 00:18:51,180 --> 00:18:53,880 smash drone you hold I 328 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,930 know I need there's I believe there are some apparatus not 329 00:18:57,930 --> 00:19:01,530 dissimilar to the dog days or that you may be at a short 330 00:19:01,530 --> 00:19:05,100 distance you couldn't interrupt its signal. And none of it will 331 00:19:05,100 --> 00:19:07,050 probably just fly back to home base. 332 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,350 No, I don't think but 333 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,740 yeah, it'd be really, really expensive drone would do that. 334 00:19:13,740 --> 00:19:16,020 But I think some would just get scrambled and go off into the 335 00:19:16,020 --> 00:19:21,090 nether lands. There's nowhere to land on a roof again, never find 336 00:19:21,090 --> 00:19:21,210 it. 337 00:19:21,270 --> 00:19:27,090 I've got a note here from the oh, here we go. Drone shield.com 338 00:19:27,540 --> 00:19:32,610 That's where we want to be. They have the drone gun tactical. I 339 00:19:32,610 --> 00:19:37,140 think that would be for me. Let's see. This is. Drone gun 340 00:19:37,140 --> 00:19:40,140 taxable provides a safe countermeasure against a wide 341 00:19:40,140 --> 00:19:43,470 range of drone models. It allows for a controlled management of 342 00:19:43,470 --> 00:19:48,240 drone payload, such as explosives with no damage to 343 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:52,170 common drone models. So what can you do out has one kilometer 344 00:19:52,170 --> 00:19:54,420 coverage what can you do with this thing? Can you be like a 345 00:19:54,420 --> 00:20:00,360 tractor beam can you pull it in? This is cool. Yeah. See Hunter 346 00:20:00,510 --> 00:20:04,620 says hunters, the very next project. These things, they look 347 00:20:04,620 --> 00:20:10,410 very militaristic. Oh my God, these are great. But doesn't 348 00:20:10,410 --> 00:20:16,080 really show me how it works. The URL? Drone shield.com. Okay. 349 00:20:16,980 --> 00:20:19,440 drones to do their own research. Yeah, 350 00:20:19,470 --> 00:20:23,820 this is very interesting. Well, although it looks expensive. I 351 00:20:23,820 --> 00:20:26,760 don't have I don't know if I'm going on loss. I had 352 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,190 a drone on the 26th floor or whatever floor you're talking 353 00:20:29,190 --> 00:20:34,770 about. Up there looking in looking I probably. Yeah, it 354 00:20:34,770 --> 00:20:35,010 was. 355 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:36,930 It was weird. Yes. Yeah. Who? Who's 356 00:20:36,930 --> 00:20:40,920 running that drone? Know, the Dutch press? Oh, yeah. 357 00:20:42,330 --> 00:20:46,530 Okay. All the more reason. All right, I'll look into the drone 358 00:20:46,890 --> 00:20:51,360 gun. You know, I think this is one of the few shows where we 359 00:20:51,360 --> 00:20:54,720 can actually play things within context and full length because 360 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:58,410 we don't have any commercial pods to hit or the news at the 361 00:20:58,410 --> 00:21:02,160 top of the hour. I found hard break. I found the yes, very 362 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,340 hard break, I found that the breakfast meeting that the 363 00:21:05,340 --> 00:21:10,680 President had with Jens Stoltenberg of NATO is actually 364 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:16,620 pretty good. And I think the the mainstream M five M really just 365 00:21:16,860 --> 00:21:20,790 did a disservice by only showing little bits and pieces of it. 366 00:21:21,300 --> 00:21:23,430 You know, just just to get the headline out. 367 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:25,770 Did you see the whole thing? 368 00:21:27,450 --> 00:21:31,950 No, but I noticed that that NATO guy was just with his Dutch 369 00:21:31,950 --> 00:21:36,570 accent. Yeah. He was seemed very happy to be working with Trump. 370 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:37,560 Yeah, in fact, 371 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:41,340 the way it started off, I have the clip here. Well, listen to 372 00:21:41,340 --> 00:21:42,570 what he says. First of 373 00:21:42,570 --> 00:21:45,330 all, it's great to see you again, Mr. President, good to 374 00:21:45,330 --> 00:21:49,020 have you here for the summit. And we are going to discuss many 375 00:21:49,020 --> 00:21:52,530 important issues at the summit. Among them is defense spending. 376 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,310 And we all agree that we have to do more, I agree with you that 377 00:21:56,310 --> 00:21:59,520 we have to make sure that allies are investing more. The good 378 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:05,670 news is that allies have started to invest more in defense. After 379 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:09,210 years of cutting the funds purchase, they have started to 380 00:22:09,810 --> 00:22:13,650 add billions to the transportations and last year 381 00:22:13,650 --> 00:22:17,070 was the biggest increase in defense spending across Europe 382 00:22:17,070 --> 00:22:18,690 and Canada in that generation. 383 00:22:18,810 --> 00:22:20,310 Why was that last year? 384 00:22:20,370 --> 00:22:22,830 It's also because of your leadership and the culture 385 00:22:22,890 --> 00:22:24,930 carried message. And and 386 00:22:25,110 --> 00:22:28,020 they want? Oh, it's because of your leadership that they're 387 00:22:28,020 --> 00:22:32,070 already spent. No one reported on this. Then they started to up 388 00:22:32,070 --> 00:22:32,850 and he calls them out. 389 00:22:33,900 --> 00:22:38,070 Leadership message they will write 390 00:22:39,540 --> 00:22:43,320 before they won't write that he says pointing at the press? No, 391 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,090 no, I've said it before. But the thing is, 392 00:22:46,260 --> 00:22:52,290 he really has it's, your message is having an impact. And we are 393 00:22:52,290 --> 00:22:54,030 going to build on that to make sure that 394 00:22:54,390 --> 00:22:57,720 further you know, if if the media hadn't taken the course 395 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:01,380 they already have, they could have said Oh really? Well, Obama 396 00:23:01,380 --> 00:23:04,260 did that. Okay, they could have taken credit for that. But now 397 00:23:04,290 --> 00:23:07,620 they already went all in on this is just insane what he's saying. 398 00:23:07,890 --> 00:23:13,260 Whereas in 2014 2016, very hard to find. I could not find a 399 00:23:13,260 --> 00:23:18,690 decent clip of President Obama on any search engine, where he I 400 00:23:18,690 --> 00:23:22,860 know what he said. He said in 2016, he said, Greece, you know, 401 00:23:22,860 --> 00:23:25,440 congratulations, you guys are right up there. That's you know, 402 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:29,340 you're spending your 2% of GDP, which must have been some deal 403 00:23:29,340 --> 00:23:32,100 with Goldman Sachs after they got bailed out. I have no idea. 404 00:23:32,100 --> 00:23:32,250 I 405 00:23:32,250 --> 00:23:35,610 believe they're about 2.1 Or two, they're more than most. 406 00:23:36,060 --> 00:23:39,390 And Obama was complaining about the only being four or five 407 00:23:39,390 --> 00:23:43,680 countries who were even at or close to the 2% GDP spending. 408 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,150 And no one gave him shit about it. Actually, European leaders 409 00:23:48,150 --> 00:23:51,060 gave him some shit about it, but not the I don't think here was 410 00:23:51,060 --> 00:23:56,340 like, yeah, exactly. So he was saying the exact same thing. 411 00:23:56,850 --> 00:24:00,060 Yes. But Trump has Obama 412 00:24:00,090 --> 00:24:04,710 but Trump had a twist. And it was it was one of the best ones. 413 00:24:05,580 --> 00:24:08,130 I couldn't have even imagined it. It's something that it was 414 00:24:08,130 --> 00:24:10,590 almost like a no agenda deconstruction. Well, I have to 415 00:24:10,590 --> 00:24:16,440 say, I think it's very sad when Germany makes a massive oil and 416 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:20,190 gas deal with Russia, where you're supposed to be guarding 417 00:24:20,190 --> 00:24:23,190 against Russia, and Germany goes out and pays billions and 418 00:24:23,190 --> 00:24:27,120 billions of dollars a year to Russia. So we're protecting 419 00:24:27,120 --> 00:24:29,970 Germany, we're protecting France, we're protecting all of 420 00:24:29,970 --> 00:24:33,570 these countries. And then numerous of the countries go out 421 00:24:33,570 --> 00:24:36,810 and make a pipeline deal with Russia, where they're paying 422 00:24:37,110 --> 00:24:41,190 billions of dollars into the coffers of Russia. So we're 423 00:24:41,190 --> 00:24:43,950 supposed to protect you against Russia, but they're paying 424 00:24:43,950 --> 00:24:46,650 billions of dollars to Russia. And I think that's very 425 00:24:46,650 --> 00:24:49,980 inappropriate. And the former chancellor of Germany is the 426 00:24:49,980 --> 00:24:53,010 head of the pipeline company that's supplying the gas. It's 427 00:24:53,010 --> 00:24:53,190 not 428 00:24:53,190 --> 00:24:59,520 like we haven't been looking at that for years. And this the 429 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,520 Northeast stream which Nord Stream two, I think is what he's 430 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,010 talking about here. There is a Nord Stream, there's a suit 431 00:25:05,010 --> 00:25:08,790 stream does this it's so true. We've always looked at it this 432 00:25:08,790 --> 00:25:09,120 way. 433 00:25:09,540 --> 00:25:11,610 We've actually got tons of gas and they gotta sell it to 434 00:25:11,610 --> 00:25:12,630 somebody and, 435 00:25:12,660 --> 00:25:16,590 and we have the euro, what they call it, the Euro roulette or 436 00:25:16,590 --> 00:25:21,180 the euro roundabout, where, you know, Germany purchases the gas, 437 00:25:21,180 --> 00:25:24,150 they purchase it in euros, and then the Russians, they got all 438 00:25:24,150 --> 00:25:26,670 this money, and they go and purchase Mercedes Benzes, and 439 00:25:26,670 --> 00:25:29,610 all kinds of other cool stuff from Germany. You know, that's 440 00:25:29,610 --> 00:25:34,140 the way it works. And it's like, it's always been done. Just pay 441 00:25:34,140 --> 00:25:37,050 no attention to that. Don't look over there. Or don't look over 442 00:25:37,050 --> 00:25:40,860 here. Look way over there. And now Trump is just calling him 443 00:25:40,860 --> 00:25:47,010 out on and the countries. Let's see, it's France, the 444 00:25:47,010 --> 00:25:53,430 Netherlands. I think who else is in this house is in this deal? 445 00:25:56,580 --> 00:25:58,800 Well, we know Poland's not in the deal. I gotta go. They got 446 00:25:58,800 --> 00:25:59,520 cut out of it. 447 00:25:59,730 --> 00:26:02,160 But But yeah, their lives in it. Yeah. Oh, yeah, the Netherlands 448 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:02,460 in it. 449 00:26:04,410 --> 00:26:09,090 But when President Obama was bitching about the 2%, GDP was 450 00:26:09,090 --> 00:26:12,330 under the veil in 2014. It was under the veil of Ukraine, and 451 00:26:12,330 --> 00:26:15,030 the my Dawn and the Russians, and you know, we have, you know, 452 00:26:15,210 --> 00:26:19,320 all this talk about Whoa, whoa, you know, NATO that was that's 453 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:22,830 an alliance. And when 911 happened, everyone stood up and 454 00:26:22,830 --> 00:26:27,750 sent their soldiers. The thing was set up to protect everyone 455 00:26:27,750 --> 00:26:30,120 from Russia. And it's been used subsequently 456 00:26:30,120 --> 00:26:34,500 to protect this kid, there is an exact right, okay. To protect 457 00:26:34,500 --> 00:26:36,540 them from the Soviet Soviet Union. 458 00:26:36,540 --> 00:26:38,010 Yes. Correct. 459 00:26:38,460 --> 00:26:40,050 That's a big difference. 460 00:26:40,050 --> 00:26:43,950 Yeah, you're right, you're right. Hey, let's just continue 461 00:26:43,950 --> 00:26:46,800 because Trump just went on much longer than you saw on TV. 462 00:26:47,850 --> 00:26:52,380 Ultimately, Germany will have almost 70% of their country, 463 00:26:53,130 --> 00:26:57,270 controlled by Russia with natural gas. So you tell me Is 464 00:26:57,270 --> 00:27:00,150 that appropriate? I've been we've been complaining about 465 00:27:00,150 --> 00:27:03,330 this, from the time I got it, it should have never been allowed 466 00:27:03,330 --> 00:27:06,840 to have happened. But Germany is totally controlled by Russia, 467 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:11,610 because they will get it from 60 to 70% of their energy from 468 00:27:11,610 --> 00:27:14,850 Russia and a new pipeline. And you tell me if that's 469 00:27:14,850 --> 00:27:17,190 appropriate, because I think it's not. And I think it's a 470 00:27:17,190 --> 00:27:19,860 very bad thing for NATO. And I don't think it should have 471 00:27:19,860 --> 00:27:23,430 happened. And I think we have to talk to Germany about it. On top 472 00:27:23,430 --> 00:27:27,660 of that, Germany is just paying a little bit over 1%, whereas 473 00:27:27,660 --> 00:27:32,220 the United States and actual numbers is paying 4.2% of a much 474 00:27:32,220 --> 00:27:36,420 larger GDP. So I think that's inappropriate. Also, you know, 475 00:27:36,420 --> 00:27:38,790 we're protecting Germany, we're protecting France, we're 476 00:27:38,790 --> 00:27:42,480 protecting everybody. And yet, we're paying a lot of money to 477 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:45,960 protect. Now, this has been going on for decades, this has 478 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,420 been brought up by other presidents, but other presidents 479 00:27:48,420 --> 00:27:51,030 never did anything about it. Because I don't think they 480 00:27:51,030 --> 00:27:54,330 understood it, or they just didn't want to get involved. But 481 00:27:54,330 --> 00:27:56,760 I have to bring it up. Because I think it's very unfair to our 482 00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:00,660 country. It's very unfair to our taxpayer. And I think that these 483 00:28:00,660 --> 00:28:03,270 countries have to step it up not over a 10 year period, they have 484 00:28:03,270 --> 00:28:06,690 to step it up immediately. Germany is a rich country, they 485 00:28:06,690 --> 00:28:12,240 talk about they can increase it a tiny bit by 2030. Well, they 486 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:16,590 could increase it immediately tomorrow, and have no problem. I 487 00:28:16,590 --> 00:28:19,800 don't think it's fair to the United States. So we're going to 488 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:21,960 have to do something because we're not going to put up with 489 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:26,700 it. We can't put up with it. And it's inappropriate. So we have 490 00:28:26,700 --> 00:28:30,240 to talk about the billions and billions of dollars that's being 491 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,720 paid to the country that we're supposed to be protecting you 492 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:37,560 against. You know, everybody's everybody's talking about it all 493 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:39,090 over the world. They'll say, Well, wait a minute, we're 494 00:28:39,090 --> 00:28:42,360 supposed to be protecting you from Russia. But why are you 495 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:46,200 paying billions of dollars to Russia for energy? Why are 496 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:50,580 countries in NATO, namely Germany, having a large 497 00:28:50,580 --> 00:28:56,010 percentage of their energy needs paid to Russia and taking care 498 00:28:56,010 --> 00:29:00,510 of by Russia? Now, if you look at it, Germany is a captive of 499 00:29:00,510 --> 00:29:03,000 Russia, because they supply they get rid of their coal plants, 500 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,420 they get rid of their nuclear, they're getting so much of the 501 00:29:06,420 --> 00:29:10,650 oil and gas from Russia. I think it's something that NATO has to 502 00:29:10,650 --> 00:29:13,290 look at. I think it's very inappropriate. You and I agree 503 00:29:13,290 --> 00:29:16,020 that it's inappropriate. I don't know what you can do about it 504 00:29:16,020 --> 00:29:19,740 now, but it certainly doesn't seem to make sense that they pay 505 00:29:19,740 --> 00:29:22,740 billions of dollars to Russia, and now we have to defend them 506 00:29:22,740 --> 00:29:23,130 against 507 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:29,850 Russia. So if anything, you know, a topic that we started on 508 00:29:29,850 --> 00:29:33,360 the no agenda show in 2012 that Trump kind of put on the map in 509 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:34,800 like two minutes. 510 00:29:36,750 --> 00:29:39,480 Now, it should mention something else that he points out, which I 511 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:43,200 think is worth discussing. They have because of the Green 512 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,650 Movement, they have ditched all their coal, oil and the nuclear 513 00:29:46,650 --> 00:29:50,400 power then because of Fukushima they've decided to kill all 514 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:55,080 their new nuclear plants, which many of which works modern and 515 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:59,790 fine and what was the reason for that? Oh, oh, bad nukes bad. 516 00:29:59,820 --> 00:30:02,100 Yeah. uh so that made the whole thing almost looks like a 517 00:30:02,100 --> 00:30:03,720 complete scam 518 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,040 well they're compensating and that that was Angela Merkel's 519 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,950 idea to right after you right after Fukushima we're getting 520 00:30:10,950 --> 00:30:15,030 rid of all I've ever gone green we can do perfect with the wind, 521 00:30:15,090 --> 00:30:19,620 water and solar and then German industry six months later when 522 00:30:20,430 --> 00:30:24,660 Angola this is not working out so well for us. What is the VA? 523 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:26,910 What they have a term for it? 524 00:30:29,370 --> 00:30:32,010 What if it translates to losing our shirts? Yes, 525 00:30:32,100 --> 00:30:37,860 something like that. The we have a lot of we have a lot of the 526 00:30:37,890 --> 00:30:40,320 energy property. This is an older clip, I think was one of 527 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:41,340 yours released. I 528 00:30:41,670 --> 00:30:44,490 mean, this is the most comprehensive climate protection 529 00:30:44,490 --> 00:30:47,160 package that the German government has ever presented. I 530 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:47,850 did, I was 531 00:30:47,850 --> 00:30:51,900 planning for saying no to nuclear power by 2022. Germany's 532 00:30:51,900 --> 00:30:56,220 now aiming to go even more green by an energy vendor in even 533 00:30:56,250 --> 00:30:59,760 getting ready to say goodbye to coal as well as part of the 534 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:04,830 ambitious plan to cut co2 emissions by 40% to 1990 levels. 535 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,970 And now it's 45% of power generated in Germany still comes 536 00:31:08,970 --> 00:31:11,490 from coal and that's the government aims to reduce this 537 00:31:11,490 --> 00:31:14,940 dependency. The question isn't only about what to substitute it 538 00:31:14,940 --> 00:31:17,970 with, but perhaps even more importantly, how much it will 539 00:31:17,970 --> 00:31:21,480 cost in a country where energy bills are already among the 540 00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:25,380 highest in Europe. Indeed, German consumers have already 541 00:31:25,380 --> 00:31:29,640 spent an extra 106 billion euros since 2000. To cover cleaner 542 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:33,750 energy initiatives via charge added to their bills. Germany is 543 00:31:33,750 --> 00:31:36,630 Europe's industrial powerhouse with the biggest appetite for 544 00:31:36,630 --> 00:31:39,690 energy on the continent. The government's ultimate goal is to 545 00:31:39,690 --> 00:31:43,200 switch to renewable sources like wind, solar and biomass 546 00:31:43,290 --> 00:31:46,230 currently generating around a quarter of the country's needs. 547 00:31:46,650 --> 00:31:49,920 But skeptics warn no matter how green they may want to go. A 548 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:53,310 fossil fuel backup is vital to keep industries working. Yeah, 549 00:31:53,310 --> 00:31:56,730 that was the report from 2015. So that's that is just about the 550 00:31:56,730 --> 00:31:59,820 time when the entire gi vendor was in full, full swing and it 551 00:31:59,820 --> 00:32:03,450 just didn't work out. And you don't hear much about it anymore 552 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,630 at the time. Ah, yes. That was on the forefront Germany leading 553 00:32:06,630 --> 00:32:07,200 the way. 554 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,470 It's all that stuff in 2015. You don't hear about anymore. That 555 00:32:10,470 --> 00:32:14,130 was that was the high point for high speed rail. 556 00:32:14,850 --> 00:32:20,490 Oh, yeah. Although we did play a clip about a month ago from NPR. 557 00:32:20,490 --> 00:32:24,840 David Frum. We'll see you again. Yeah. 558 00:32:25,860 --> 00:32:28,200 I know who he is. But I can't think of who he is. 559 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,500 He was on NPR talking about the Nord Stream to 560 00:32:31,530 --> 00:32:34,230 David, I want to ask you about Nord Stream two, which is this 561 00:32:34,230 --> 00:32:38,400 pipeline project proposed to run from, from Russia to Germany 562 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:42,090 under the Baltic Sea. This I feel like complicates some of 563 00:32:42,090 --> 00:32:44,490 the narrative policy narratives we've seen here where the US has 564 00:32:44,490 --> 00:32:46,860 been trying to block the construction of that pipeline, 565 00:32:47,070 --> 00:32:49,560 in part to to prevent the Russians from getting too much 566 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:53,490 power from their supplying of fossil fuels to Europe. What do 567 00:32:53,490 --> 00:32:55,710 you make of the Trump administration taking this sort 568 00:32:55,710 --> 00:32:58,590 of fairly strong anti Russia position at this time, one of 569 00:32:58,590 --> 00:33:01,080 the things dividing us from Europe actually, US been wanting 570 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,120 to be tougher on Russia on this issue than they are? 571 00:33:03,750 --> 00:33:07,680 Yeah, the Nord Stream two pipeline is it's actually it's a 572 00:33:07,890 --> 00:33:11,280 Eastern European issue. The reason why just want to build 573 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,160 this pipeline that allows them to supply gas directly to 574 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:18,780 Germany, bypassing Poland, is that they never want to cut off 575 00:33:18,780 --> 00:33:21,420 Germany, That's too scary. They've tangled with the Germans 576 00:33:21,420 --> 00:33:24,720 a few times, they'd rather not do it again. But they this 577 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:28,890 pipeline allows them to turn off gas to Poland, and to Ukraine 578 00:33:28,890 --> 00:33:32,190 and other places without turning off gas to Germany. So the 579 00:33:32,190 --> 00:33:35,520 reason that the United States has stood strong or not as 580 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,310 strong as it should against this pipeline is to protect our 581 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:42,570 NATO's eastern flank. Now, it happens that this is a rare case 582 00:33:42,780 --> 00:33:47,820 where Donald Trump has another priority along with that of his 583 00:33:47,820 --> 00:33:51,180 pro Russia policy. And that is he is very sympathetic to these 584 00:33:51,180 --> 00:33:54,240 increasingly authoritarian small states in Eastern Europe, which 585 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,510 are his probably his only friends on the continent, 586 00:33:57,510 --> 00:33:59,970 especially the polls gave him such a such a good time. 587 00:34:00,660 --> 00:34:03,060 But what does that mean? What we're going 588 00:34:03,060 --> 00:34:05,070 to see is Germans have a lot of quote, 589 00:34:06,780 --> 00:34:12,300 drama. A good time and Marshall, remember, was good time, except 590 00:34:12,300 --> 00:34:13,950 he never gave him the visa waivers? 591 00:34:14,670 --> 00:34:16,650 Yes, he's probably his only friends on the continent, 592 00:34:16,650 --> 00:34:20,220 especially the polls gave him such a such a good time. But 593 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,280 what we're going to see is Germans have a lot of clout and 594 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,040 a lot more clout in the polls. What traditionally happens at 595 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,850 these kinds of summits, is that there is vigorous debate inside 596 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:33,720 the leaders room, which is then cushioned by cooperation 597 00:34:33,720 --> 00:34:36,930 outside. I don't know how much leverage Donald Trump has over 598 00:34:36,930 --> 00:34:42,600 Germany right now. And zero. And it's hard for him to win this 599 00:34:42,630 --> 00:34:45,300 without being able to mobilize any sympathetic opinion in 600 00:34:45,300 --> 00:34:45,660 Germany. 601 00:34:45,660 --> 00:34:49,110 Yeah, Wrong again from who is a political commentator? Yeah, 602 00:34:49,110 --> 00:34:53,670 commentator, old hacky, used to be a speech writer from Bush, W. 603 00:34:53,670 --> 00:34:54,150 Bush. 604 00:34:54,210 --> 00:34:57,750 So he clearly was wrong, because the leverage is the NATO 605 00:34:57,750 --> 00:35:03,390 payments. That's the leverage. Yeah. To me, it's like, wow. 606 00:35:03,689 --> 00:35:07,199 You know, I believe from as another one of the anti Trump 607 00:35:07,199 --> 00:35:07,499 errs. 608 00:35:07,529 --> 00:35:11,459 Oh, I'm sure Poland did come up in this breakfast meeting. 609 00:35:12,359 --> 00:35:17,189 Nathan Lonsdale, 29 nations, there are sometimes differences 610 00:35:17,189 --> 00:35:20,669 on the different views. And also some disagreements on the gas 611 00:35:21,749 --> 00:35:25,169 pipeline from Russia to Germany is one issue where allies 612 00:35:25,199 --> 00:35:28,619 disagree. But the strength of NATO is that despite these 613 00:35:28,619 --> 00:35:32,279 differences, we have always been able to unite around our 614 00:35:32,279 --> 00:35:35,729 forecast to protect and defend each other because we understand 615 00:35:35,729 --> 00:35:40,439 that we are stronger together. Data two world wars and the Cold 616 00:35:40,439 --> 00:35:43,229 War thought, we are stronger together than apart. 617 00:35:44,310 --> 00:35:48,030 But how can you be together what a country is getting its energy 618 00:35:48,030 --> 00:35:51,600 from the person you want protection against or from the 619 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:52,200 group that you 620 00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,080 want to take? Because you understand that when we stand 621 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:59,400 together also, when dealing with Russia, we are stronger? I think 622 00:35:59,550 --> 00:36:00,210 we have seen 623 00:36:00,630 --> 00:36:04,800 just making Russia richer, making Russia richer. 624 00:36:05,580 --> 00:36:08,550 I think that even during the Cold War, NATO Allies were 625 00:36:08,550 --> 00:36:12,300 trading with Russia, then there have been disagreements about 626 00:36:12,330 --> 00:36:15,030 what kind of trade arrangements which 627 00:36:16,110 --> 00:36:18,960 trade is wonderful. I think energy is a whole different 628 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:22,440 story. This energy is a much different story than normal 629 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:25,950 trade. And you have a country like Poland that won't accept 630 00:36:26,310 --> 00:36:29,070 the gas, you take a look at some of the countries, they won't 631 00:36:29,070 --> 00:36:31,530 accept it because they don't want to be captive to Russia. 632 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,130 But Germany, as far as I'm concerned, is captive to Russia, 633 00:36:35,130 --> 00:36:39,660 because it's getting so much of its energy from Russia. So we're 634 00:36:39,660 --> 00:36:43,050 supposed to protect Germany, but they're getting their energy 635 00:36:43,260 --> 00:36:46,500 from Russia. Explain that. And it can't be explained, you know. 636 00:36:46,980 --> 00:36:48,210 Alright, thank you press. All 637 00:36:48,210 --> 00:36:57,180 right. So the implication is that Poland doesn't want to be a 638 00:36:57,180 --> 00:37:00,000 slave to Russia, which I don't believe I think they would love 639 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:03,840 to get some gas. And by the way, if you hear and you and this is 640 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,300 a pro tip from the no agenda show, if you want to propagate 641 00:37:06,300 --> 00:37:08,790 just a little bit of formula, if you hear anyone talking about 642 00:37:08,790 --> 00:37:11,610 the oil pipeline from Russia, you can then correct them and 643 00:37:11,610 --> 00:37:15,540 say it's a gas pipeline natural gas, which is a mistake. I've 644 00:37:15,540 --> 00:37:17,460 heard everywhere, because people really don't read up on this 645 00:37:17,460 --> 00:37:19,650 stuff. And I think I know a bit about the pipelines. And the 646 00:37:19,650 --> 00:37:23,850 whole idea here for Trump is to protect American interests, 647 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:27,210 because we want to sell our gas. That's why we had 648 00:37:27,210 --> 00:37:30,300 that. I think that's a false hope. But well, I mean, maybe 649 00:37:30,300 --> 00:37:34,170 but but the one thing that is interesting is that Trump if you 650 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:37,620 know, it didn't notice because I sure did, kept repeating the 651 00:37:37,620 --> 00:37:42,000 same mantra over and over and over. You know, Germany, 652 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:46,950 Germany's Russian, Russian, a lot of money from Germany in 653 00:37:46,950 --> 00:37:50,310 some attempt to get the mainstream media to cover it. 654 00:37:51,990 --> 00:37:56,400 Yeah, well, the mainstream media has a problem though. Because 655 00:37:56,430 --> 00:38:00,840 how do you hate Russia and they've they've been meddled 656 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:04,800 with our democracy. They've ruined our country. The our 657 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:09,870 president is a puppet. Now Germany's okay. It's all right, 658 00:38:09,870 --> 00:38:13,770 Angola. Yeah, they've painted themselves into a corner. Yeah. 659 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:18,960 It's horrible. And so we get crappy news coverage. And so are 660 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,660 they happy to have those kids rescued? Oh, yeah. 661 00:38:21,660 --> 00:38:24,450 And even better today. Daniel was 662 00:38:24,450 --> 00:38:27,390 arrested. Yes. Or me stormy 663 00:38:27,390 --> 00:38:31,050 Daniels arrested. Even though today we have the public 664 00:38:31,050 --> 00:38:35,130 testimony by Peter strock. One of the sad 665 00:38:35,759 --> 00:38:37,259 news for today. Yeah. But 666 00:38:37,260 --> 00:38:39,900 you know, they already had a closed door session. So as far 667 00:38:39,900 --> 00:38:43,050 as I'm concerned, this is just a script and everyone's written 668 00:38:43,050 --> 00:38:45,510 off questions that have already been answered. They just want to 669 00:38:45,510 --> 00:38:48,720 get the answers in public and it's, you know, showing how, how 670 00:38:48,720 --> 00:38:52,650 fabulous you are. And I look at my question, oh, I got a mu I 671 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:57,030 nipped him there did not. It's theater. I doubt it will learn 672 00:38:57,030 --> 00:39:00,360 anything. But you and I will both spend hours watching it 673 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:02,100 after the show. I just don't think there's going to be 674 00:39:02,100 --> 00:39:05,310 much there. I think there'll be a couple of good notices. 675 00:39:05,730 --> 00:39:09,540 that'll that'll be about it. Your News did give us a little 676 00:39:09,540 --> 00:39:13,080 rundown of the contributions from countries of of the NATO 677 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:13,650 alliance in 678 00:39:13,650 --> 00:39:17,790 2014. NATO countries agreed to spend 2% of gross domestic 679 00:39:17,790 --> 00:39:22,920 product on defense every year up to 2024. The target is described 680 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:26,610 as a guideline and there's no penalty for not meeting it. In 681 00:39:26,610 --> 00:39:30,300 March, NATO released the figures for 2017 and only a handful of 682 00:39:30,300 --> 00:39:34,680 countries hid or better the 2% target. The US spent the most 683 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:38,790 but 3.57% of GDP. The second highest spender perhaps 684 00:39:38,790 --> 00:39:43,590 surprisingly, was Greece. The UK came in at 2.12%. The member 685 00:39:43,590 --> 00:39:47,910 that spent the least was Luxembourg 8.46%. well short of 686 00:39:47,910 --> 00:39:51,660 the target. Estonia and Poland have significantly increased 687 00:39:51,660 --> 00:39:55,140 their spending since the 2014 NATO Summit where members agreed 688 00:39:55,140 --> 00:39:58,980 the 2% target that was in response to Russia's annexation 689 00:39:58,980 --> 00:40:03,060 of the Crimea region. and which came after 25 years of cuts to 690 00:40:03,060 --> 00:40:06,810 European defense budgets. Nevertheless, European Council 691 00:40:06,810 --> 00:40:10,740 President Donald Tusk maintains that as a whole, the EU spends 692 00:40:10,740 --> 00:40:14,790 more on defense than China or Russia. In the next multi annual 693 00:40:14,790 --> 00:40:17,640 financial framework, the European Commission proposes 694 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:21,600 increasing Defence and Security spending to 27 point 5 billion 695 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:27,540 euros that would take up 2.4% of the total MFF budget 13 billion 696 00:40:27,540 --> 00:40:30,750 euros of that will be dedicated to the European Defense Fund 697 00:40:30,990 --> 00:40:33,960 over the next seven years. But no one knows if that will be 698 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:37,500 enough to convince Donald Trump of Europe's commitment to NATO 699 00:40:37,530 --> 00:40:38,700 and defense to it. 700 00:40:38,700 --> 00:40:43,170 So it would only take them 27 and a half billion euros to be 701 00:40:43,170 --> 00:40:46,620 up to par across the Eurozone. Did I misunderstand that? 702 00:40:47,100 --> 00:40:50,340 I don't, I couldn't follow it very well, because his numbers 703 00:40:50,340 --> 00:40:52,380 weren't the same as the ones that I have in my head. 704 00:40:54,180 --> 00:40:59,160 And I need to add that when President Obama was bitching 705 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:02,400 about this on his trip and his NATO conference, and he had to 706 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:06,630 sit down with Angola, it was right after it had been revealed 707 00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:11,190 that our NSA had been spying on Angola cell phone remember, I 708 00:41:11,190 --> 00:41:13,620 think there was some kind of veiled apology even 709 00:41:13,650 --> 00:41:14,640 Yes, right. Can 710 00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:17,610 you imagine if it hadn't happened under a Trump 711 00:41:17,610 --> 00:41:19,950 presidency? Oh, my goodness. 712 00:41:21,720 --> 00:41:25,650 Well, they did have interesting commentary that was read on 713 00:41:25,650 --> 00:41:31,410 this. Does the PBS NewsHour I believe from from tusk. Yes. It 714 00:41:31,410 --> 00:41:36,810 used to be. They don't have to dig. The Dig. Yes. That's the 715 00:41:36,810 --> 00:41:43,530 dick. He they had Kay Bailey Hutchinson, who, who to me is 716 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:48,330 she's an old. She's like an old political hack. who's been in 717 00:41:48,330 --> 00:41:54,180 the government firm since I was a kid, like my mother. And she's 718 00:41:54,180 --> 00:41:57,150 and she turns out to be a great Trump apologist. He's really 719 00:41:57,150 --> 00:42:00,420 good at handling it. But play this Tusk versus Trump versus 720 00:42:00,420 --> 00:42:04,140 NATO clip from I wondered and how you respond to this is why 721 00:42:04,140 --> 00:42:08,610 stop is what's her name says show. That British woman that 722 00:42:08,610 --> 00:42:15,570 has the or the and in a poor poor poor, Christiana on poor. 723 00:42:15,900 --> 00:42:18,660 That woman. Yes. She has a show. Now she does these interviews. 724 00:42:18,660 --> 00:42:19,830 It's very much like a PBS 725 00:42:20,279 --> 00:42:24,029 issue in the UK. When she does this, or she does do it where 726 00:42:24,029 --> 00:42:27,539 she's I think she's because she's been kind of pushed off. 727 00:42:27,539 --> 00:42:29,669 You know, CNN pushed her off to put her 728 00:42:29,670 --> 00:42:33,180 on PBS. They give her a special. Oh, okay. 729 00:42:33,210 --> 00:42:36,420 I wonder then how you respond to the European Commission 730 00:42:36,420 --> 00:42:39,660 president. This is Donald Tusk's message to President Trump 731 00:42:39,660 --> 00:42:43,590 today. First of all, dear America, appreciate your allies. 732 00:42:43,620 --> 00:42:47,460 After all, you don't have that many. And you Europe spend more 733 00:42:47,460 --> 00:42:50,070 on your defense because everyone respects an ally that's well 734 00:42:50,070 --> 00:42:53,040 prepared. And equipped, obviously, the second part 735 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,440 you're going to like and the President is going to like, but 736 00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,650 he's pretty much punching bag because President Trump has 737 00:42:58,980 --> 00:43:02,910 treated these allies as mere transactional cogs in a wheel. 738 00:43:03,240 --> 00:43:04,260 Well, I think that, 739 00:43:05,190 --> 00:43:09,960 hey, what are you talking about them's fightin words. We don't 740 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:11,220 have many friends. 741 00:43:11,460 --> 00:43:17,820 Yeah, that's what I thought. You're gonna give our guy a bad 742 00:43:17,820 --> 00:43:21,270 time for being an insult artist. What about this Tusk character, 743 00:43:21,330 --> 00:43:25,260 President Trump actually has very great respect for our 744 00:43:25,260 --> 00:43:29,790 allies. He does think that there should be more of because it is 745 00:43:29,790 --> 00:43:33,630 a European Alliance along with North America. I think he's been 746 00:43:33,630 --> 00:43:37,350 playing about that. For Christianity. I think that his 747 00:43:37,410 --> 00:43:42,240 goal is to make sure that NATO is the strongest umbrella for 748 00:43:42,240 --> 00:43:45,960 security for all of us. And I think that our allies realize 749 00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:51,180 that and I know that the way he says things sometimes put people 750 00:43:51,210 --> 00:43:55,740 off, but he's just trying to make the point and make sure 751 00:43:55,770 --> 00:43:57,660 that they actually do it. 752 00:43:57,990 --> 00:44:02,430 With all this bravado and the Bravo war going on. I kind of 753 00:44:02,430 --> 00:44:06,510 agree with her. I've been noticing this, it appears that a 754 00:44:06,510 --> 00:44:10,380 lot of Trump's message and a lot of his actions are very similar 755 00:44:10,380 --> 00:44:13,770 to previous presidents, I mean, really not that different. A 756 00:44:13,770 --> 00:44:17,160 little straightforward mail or, as we would say, in Holland 757 00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:19,470 court to the ball, it's kind of you know, short cutting through 758 00:44:19,470 --> 00:44:23,220 the corner there just to get to the other side. But it's the way 759 00:44:23,220 --> 00:44:27,360 that he says it and that is just upset everybody. It's truly his 760 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,660 mannerisms is truly his, you know, it's like he's like a 761 00:44:30,660 --> 00:44:33,960 cowboy movie come to life. You know, it's it's scary. It's 762 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:37,800 scary to people who've seen it because I think it's because I 763 00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:40,440 was watching Obama trying to find a clip of him talking about 764 00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:52,170 NATO. Anyhow, he would talk like this and our allies measures all 765 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:55,110 across Europe. Yeah. And it was just it was okay, you can kind 766 00:44:55,110 --> 00:44:58,170 of flow into it, you know, didn't take wasn't hard to 767 00:44:58,170 --> 00:45:02,310 understand. He was you know, he was completing sentences, you 768 00:45:02,310 --> 00:45:06,360 know, stuff that this president just is incapable of. But his 769 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:09,210 message is kind of this, you know, he's a builder. People 770 00:45:09,240 --> 00:45:13,890 need to remember this. Oh, my God. This is like, how many 771 00:45:13,890 --> 00:45:18,270 wealthy guys have we not met John? Who when you when you meet 772 00:45:18,270 --> 00:45:21,600 him many? Yeah, when you meet him a number I'm talking I'm not 773 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:23,460 taking rich I'm talking wealthy, you know so you're in the 774 00:45:23,460 --> 00:45:28,320 billions of dollars billionaires and and they aren't they come 775 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:33,990 across as some are illiterate I mean I know rich guys who were 776 00:45:34,140 --> 00:45:37,470 actually illiterate who will say Could you hand me the phone and 777 00:45:37,470 --> 00:45:42,210 say could you just type this message? And and it's just the 778 00:45:42,210 --> 00:45:45,630 way of the world you know, these very, very successful people and 779 00:45:45,660 --> 00:45:49,860 we've met a number of them. Many of them are just I know many 780 00:45:49,890 --> 00:45:52,860 Yeah, the brat will give me an x. Can you give me an example? A 781 00:45:52,860 --> 00:45:57,600 good example? How about Hearst for instance? Yes, some of that. 782 00:45:58,170 --> 00:46:01,140 Her says there's a lot of that it's brash, you know, it's 783 00:46:01,140 --> 00:46:03,720 just raw, not as bad though. It's 784 00:46:05,220 --> 00:46:07,560 not as bad 785 00:46:09,510 --> 00:46:13,170 as it is it ages on them because I nd hearse which was Patty 786 00:46:13,170 --> 00:46:16,440 Hearst dad. And when we were this whole group of the Hearst 787 00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:20,100 Corporation went to the Media Lab, which was great for me, I 788 00:46:20,100 --> 00:46:25,230 was goodwill. And the two of us snuck in with the executives. So 789 00:46:25,230 --> 00:46:27,870 we didn't have to sign all those nondisclosure, they won't show 790 00:46:27,870 --> 00:46:30,600 you anything at the Media Lab. And let's just sign off on a 791 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,480 bunch of stuff that I didn't sign anything. So we got to see 792 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:37,740 a lot of interesting stuff, and talk to hear a lot of 793 00:46:37,740 --> 00:46:40,920 interesting pitches, they had pitches that they would throw at 794 00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:45,480 these newspaper guys and these publishers, and Randy was like, 795 00:46:47,130 --> 00:46:50,610 it was like he was just kind of like, oblivious to things was 796 00:46:50,610 --> 00:46:55,530 like, Oh, it reminds me of the story that the the the best way 797 00:46:55,530 --> 00:46:59,040 to describe most of these guys seems to me to be the my 798 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:04,140 description of the woman I saw at a military display in Pacific 799 00:47:04,140 --> 00:47:06,510 Heights and then one of the parks and as a specific heights 800 00:47:06,510 --> 00:47:11,880 a woman who walked over with her little poodle wherever it was a 801 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:14,640 trendy dog at the most is totally Pacific Heights type 802 00:47:15,060 --> 00:47:18,330 loaded, obviously. And a guy she's looking at one of the 803 00:47:18,330 --> 00:47:21,030 exhibits and is since she and the guy. She says what is that 804 00:47:21,030 --> 00:47:25,650 thing? She said? He said it's a personnel mine? And she said, 805 00:47:25,830 --> 00:47:30,030 No. And she says, Oh, Oh Ha ha, I have a friend who works in 806 00:47:30,030 --> 00:47:34,560 personnel. And then she walks off. That is what we're talking 807 00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:35,040 about. 808 00:47:37,860 --> 00:47:40,710 Yeah, kind of kind of, kind of this 809 00:47:41,430 --> 00:47:45,150 dead. But it's just a way that own worlds thing. It's hard to 810 00:47:45,150 --> 00:47:45,720 explain. But 811 00:47:45,720 --> 00:47:49,590 these guys in real estate these guys in in oil in big but the 812 00:47:49,590 --> 00:47:52,350 unsophisticated they're unpolished. You got a lot of 813 00:47:52,350 --> 00:47:55,800 them in Texas, of course. And they're incredibly rich, but 814 00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:58,770 they're shrewd, they're shrewd, and they know business, the 815 00:47:58,770 --> 00:48:05,880 basic tenants of human behavior in a negotiation, a lot of them. 816 00:48:06,210 --> 00:48:07,500 Well, of course, not all of them. But 817 00:48:07,740 --> 00:48:10,410 I mean, the Silicon Valley types, a lot of them were 818 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:14,010 focused, they they're made of money by baby Bill Gates is a 819 00:48:14,010 --> 00:48:17,610 good example, by being more focused than you and I could 820 00:48:17,610 --> 00:48:21,780 ever be if we combined all our skills, they could focus to such 821 00:48:21,780 --> 00:48:25,410 an extreme, that they can really make things happen, but they 822 00:48:25,410 --> 00:48:28,500 don't beyond that. It's like, you know, I remember I went to a 823 00:48:28,500 --> 00:48:31,710 baseball game once with Bill Gates and had to explain the hit 824 00:48:31,710 --> 00:48:36,660 and run to him and it was like, it was like, what it was right. 825 00:48:37,020 --> 00:48:38,820 It wasn't easy, by the way to explain 826 00:48:38,820 --> 00:48:43,260 it. So But bottom line is that you know, Trump is very simple 827 00:48:43,260 --> 00:48:46,860 in his thinking and I think that resonates people at home can 828 00:48:46,860 --> 00:48:49,830 understand what he's saying wait a minute, so these guys are 829 00:48:49,830 --> 00:48:52,320 getting billions of dollars to Russia and then they're going to 830 00:48:52,350 --> 00:48:55,560 give even more with the gas turbine from the cutting out the 831 00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:59,520 so called you know, our buddies they're in Ukraine and then 832 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,670 Poland, or Ukraine, let's just say Ukraine is the most 833 00:49:02,670 --> 00:49:06,330 important one because that was so important. Remember, it was 834 00:49:06,330 --> 00:49:10,080 so important we for the Russian gas, and meanwhile these guys 835 00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:12,930 aren't pulling their weight. I mean, Trump directly talks to 836 00:49:12,930 --> 00:49:16,200 the taxpayer it's unfair to the taxpayers Hey, I sit at home and 837 00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:21,570 go Yeah, yeah, what's up with that? It's but it's it's still 838 00:49:21,570 --> 00:49:26,550 the kind of the same thing you know, and the like the this 839 00:49:26,550 --> 00:49:30,000 summit, but also the g7 it's the same you know, normally everyone 840 00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:32,580 goes there has a couple of drinks has some tea Whoa, whoa, 841 00:49:32,580 --> 00:49:35,610 whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, bother do their photos. And then they 842 00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,160 released the communique. We're all going to work together. 843 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:41,160 We're going to do much better. And then Trump just doesn't just 844 00:49:41,190 --> 00:49:42,930 doesn't see the benefit of that. 845 00:49:45,870 --> 00:49:47,400 Yeah, he doesn't he doesn't. 846 00:49:47,940 --> 00:49:52,200 So I'm enjoying it. I liked it. Yeah, they painted it into a 847 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:52,950 quantum province. 848 00:49:52,950 --> 00:49:55,290 Nobody's getting this information. The you know, the 849 00:49:55,290 --> 00:49:58,950 fact that he's trying to get it out but they're not going to 850 00:49:58,950 --> 00:49:59,640 pick it up. I 851 00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:02,220 don't think So either because they don't know what to do with 852 00:50:02,220 --> 00:50:02,370 it, 853 00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:06,420 here's that you went to summary of the whole Trump experience in 854 00:50:06,420 --> 00:50:08,880 NATO was that one photo which I had in the newsletter, 855 00:50:10,530 --> 00:50:13,800 which you can take, depending on the dimension you're in, you can 856 00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:18,090 say, Wow, everybody's going this way. And Trump is a moron. He's 857 00:50:18,090 --> 00:50:22,950 looking the other way. Or you can say now that's a guy who's 858 00:50:22,950 --> 00:50:26,790 looking at other opportunities, or building code violations, as 859 00:50:26,790 --> 00:50:29,610 you said in the newsletter. Yes, my punch now was a good, that 860 00:50:29,610 --> 00:50:33,300 was a good joke. I was good. What's the second tooth clip? 861 00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:35,730 Let's play it. 862 00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:39,030 Now. Cristiane? You know, I served with other presidents and 863 00:50:39,030 --> 00:50:42,720 they all said the same thing. I think President Trump is saying 864 00:50:42,720 --> 00:50:46,410 it in a way that they are now remembering and really turning 865 00:50:46,470 --> 00:50:48,330 on the dime and doing better. 866 00:50:48,660 --> 00:50:52,410 I look, I understand. And many US presidents and leaders have 867 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:56,100 complained and they want that 2% Obviously, the Europeans do 868 00:50:56,100 --> 00:51:00,930 things that complement US participation in the US 869 00:51:00,930 --> 00:51:05,100 contribution. But here's the thing, the tone is what is 870 00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:07,950 creating existential angst amongst you. 871 00:51:08,490 --> 00:51:13,020 There it is. She's saying it for me. It's the tone. Oh, he's not 872 00:51:13,020 --> 00:51:14,670 saying it right tone 873 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:19,920 is what is creating existential angst amongst your NATO allies. 874 00:51:20,100 --> 00:51:23,310 Donald Tusk, again, basically has said that the tone of 875 00:51:23,310 --> 00:51:26,520 President Trump, his language meant that allies could no 876 00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:30,330 longer assume that NATO will endure. Now that might sound 877 00:51:30,330 --> 00:51:33,450 alarmist, but I'm going to play you again, a much hackneyed 878 00:51:33,450 --> 00:51:37,110 soundbite President Trump's initial first ever comment. 879 00:51:37,140 --> 00:51:40,200 What does this mean, a much hackneyed soundbite? 880 00:51:40,650 --> 00:51:43,380 Yes, she uses that word. It's interesting when I heard it the 881 00:51:43,380 --> 00:51:46,740 first time, because what it means is that it's been beaten 882 00:51:46,740 --> 00:51:52,650 to death. Or a cliche. It's just something has been used a lot 883 00:51:52,650 --> 00:51:55,170 over and over and over again, like the network does. You know, 884 00:51:55,170 --> 00:51:56,400 they always keep throwing stuff. 885 00:51:56,430 --> 00:51:58,620 Well, let's let's let's pay attention to it. Because that's 886 00:51:58,620 --> 00:52:02,040 a middle yo type of word. We can figure out where she belongs who 887 00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:04,770 she belongs to. I think we should hear that word more 888 00:52:04,770 --> 00:52:05,220 often. That's 889 00:52:05,220 --> 00:52:08,010 an interesting idea to think that's a male youth term. It 890 00:52:08,010 --> 00:52:08,730 could be Yeah. 891 00:52:09,660 --> 00:52:13,380 We no longer assume that nature will endure. Now that might 892 00:52:13,380 --> 00:52:16,860 sound alarmist, but I'm gonna play you again, a much hackneyed 893 00:52:16,860 --> 00:52:20,760 soundbite President Trump's initial first ever comments in 894 00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:24,120 public on NATO, were not heartening to those who believe 895 00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:26,250 in in the Alliance, listen to this for a second, 896 00:52:26,430 --> 00:52:31,620 NATO is obsolete, it was 67 years or it's over 60 years old. 897 00:52:32,250 --> 00:52:37,200 It is many countries doesn't cover terrorism. Okay. It covers 898 00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:41,280 the Soviet Union, which is no longer in existence. And NATO 899 00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:44,580 has to either be rejiggered reaching here changed for the 900 00:52:44,580 --> 00:52:47,520 better. I'm not saying the other thing is bad about NATO, we're 901 00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:51,270 paying too much. We're spending a tremendous billions and 902 00:52:51,270 --> 00:52:52,830 billions of dollars on NATO. 903 00:52:53,130 --> 00:52:56,070 So there are a lot of thoughts in that statement. But you can 904 00:52:56,070 --> 00:53:01,560 see that those initial comments are still the comments of the 905 00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:04,290 President and it does destabilize the allies. They're 906 00:53:04,290 --> 00:53:07,530 kind of concerned about it. Because, you know, you talk 907 00:53:07,530 --> 00:53:10,290 about the Wales Summit. And indeed, in 2014, there was a 908 00:53:10,290 --> 00:53:14,280 pledge to up the payments, every single one except a couple have 909 00:53:14,310 --> 00:53:17,220 upped their payments to nearly 2%. And she's 910 00:53:17,220 --> 00:53:21,570 conflating two different things. Because I remember I recall this 911 00:53:21,570 --> 00:53:25,830 very well. Trump said NATO is outdated, and specifically 912 00:53:25,830 --> 00:53:29,370 stated that it was because they do not address terrorism or 913 00:53:29,370 --> 00:53:35,130 cyber. And since that since then, we now have a NATO with I 914 00:53:35,130 --> 00:53:38,190 guess, an office somewhere that deals with terrorism. And they 915 00:53:38,190 --> 00:53:41,400 probably have some some dude in the basement named Ben, who's in 916 00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:44,820 charge of cyber. But that's what he was talking about initially. 917 00:53:47,250 --> 00:53:48,870 said, yeah. Well, that 918 00:53:48,870 --> 00:53:53,610 was the clip from the initial discussion. Yes. And he did 919 00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:58,470 specifically discussed the fact that, and I think this is what 920 00:53:58,470 --> 00:54:02,070 she's referring to the fact that we're paying too much. Yep, 921 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:03,600 we're getting robbed, or 922 00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:05,790 we're paying more than we're paying 923 00:54:05,790 --> 00:54:09,090 a more than our fair share, according to the numbers. It's 924 00:54:09,270 --> 00:54:12,900 way up there. Yeah. We have a bigger GDP and his percentage 925 00:54:12,900 --> 00:54:15,600 they, you know, that's the thing that kind of gets me if it was a 926 00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:21,420 flat fee. I don't see how it should be a function of the GDP. 927 00:54:22,170 --> 00:54:26,220 Right. Well, what do you think about this in general, so can we 928 00:54:26,220 --> 00:54:28,710 just get rid of it is NATO really that important? Just 929 00:54:28,710 --> 00:54:30,660 seems like another big money sink. 930 00:54:31,260 --> 00:54:34,560 I think he was hinting at that. But then again, if you remember 931 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:38,880 the McMasters speech that we had that I clipped, where he 932 00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:42,990 discussed how the world works, and one of his lectures, which 933 00:54:42,990 --> 00:54:47,670 was I find the most fascinating thing ever. He mentions that the 934 00:54:47,670 --> 00:54:50,400 way the world works at the moment is that we're the big 935 00:54:50,430 --> 00:54:54,180 dog, and that we have to support all these things. And we have to 936 00:54:54,270 --> 00:54:57,420 keep these things going because it's all part of the of the the 937 00:54:57,420 --> 00:55:01,740 world order as it exists in how we're running things. So it's 938 00:55:01,740 --> 00:55:04,980 not like you can just willy nilly start changing things be 939 00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:09,030 cornering mastery. So you could do it immediately if we wanted 940 00:55:09,030 --> 00:55:12,150 to, we could change things. But right now, the way it works is 941 00:55:12,150 --> 00:55:14,910 this way. And NATO is part of that. So but 942 00:55:14,940 --> 00:55:17,790 but really all it is, is just an excuse for us to be the boss of 943 00:55:17,790 --> 00:55:18,360 everybody. 944 00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:21,690 I mean, that's what Yeah, but that's the way the system works 945 00:55:21,690 --> 00:55:25,530 right now. That's what keeps the that's what key. That's the only 946 00:55:25,530 --> 00:55:30,030 reason that end the dollar being the reserve currency that people 947 00:55:30,030 --> 00:55:32,520 will be one of the people want to scuttle this, by the way that 948 00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:36,120 it's would know it would McMaster described. But that's 949 00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:41,010 the only reason that we can be $100 trillion in debt to the 950 00:55:41,010 --> 00:55:44,280 world and we can still be living prosperously and growing 951 00:55:44,670 --> 00:55:49,350 vegetables and having the time of our lives pretty much Speak 952 00:55:49,350 --> 00:55:54,270 for yourself. You know, it's not like you're you're not living in 953 00:55:54,300 --> 00:55:57,810 Austin in a depressed area where everybody's like swirls 954 00:55:58,050 --> 00:56:01,200 come to the streets come to the streets of downtown Austin I 955 00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:02,040 will show you 956 00:56:03,150 --> 00:56:05,280 there's a lot well there's a miss there's some errors in 957 00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:09,930 judgment the way this is being handled, that's for sure. But I 958 00:56:09,930 --> 00:56:13,830 would say that you can probably put down to the Democrat 959 00:56:14,010 --> 00:56:17,490 Democratic Party, and they're oh my god, we can't offend anybody. 960 00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:20,940 Oh, don't let them poop. Don't say anything. kind of attitude 961 00:56:20,940 --> 00:56:21,210 about 962 00:56:21,630 --> 00:56:24,540 poop. Don't say anything. Yeah, that I think that's actually a 963 00:56:24,540 --> 00:56:28,110 city ordinance. It's the let them poop. Don't say anything. 964 00:56:28,110 --> 00:56:30,870 ordinance. We haven't seen the pooping yet. Only the urination 965 00:56:30,900 --> 00:56:35,220 we have common is poop is coming and poop in our future. Yeah, 966 00:56:35,700 --> 00:56:39,840 that was I think that we often don't even say well, what the 967 00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:42,840 hell is this? I mean, yeah, okay. It's the show the word top 968 00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:46,680 dog. And we have our bases everywhere. And I get I guess 969 00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:48,450 it's the Yeah, it's the way the world works. 970 00:56:48,660 --> 00:56:52,440 And that's why we have these notices. Just a reminder, hey, 971 00:56:52,710 --> 00:56:54,570 hey, just so you know, we're around, 972 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:58,080 we have a base in your country, you want to just you know, or we 973 00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:01,500 have a base right outside your country, or we got to drone to 974 00:57:01,500 --> 00:57:05,370 headquarters in the your country or outside your country. I mean, 975 00:57:05,370 --> 00:57:08,850 it's ridiculous if you look at it, but it's the way we do 976 00:57:08,850 --> 00:57:11,520 things the way we do it. Yeah, it's the way things are. And 977 00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:15,330 we're living the life of Riley. Nobody wants to appreciate that. 978 00:57:15,330 --> 00:57:18,960 I'm not complaining. I'm not complaining. Here's what he was 979 00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:20,880 the response from Canada Navia. 980 00:57:20,910 --> 00:57:23,430 Despite that criticism from Donald Trump Prime Minister 981 00:57:23,430 --> 00:57:26,700 Justin Trudeau is defending Canada's military spending, 982 00:57:26,850 --> 00:57:30,480 Canada will continue to step up. We've been part of every single 983 00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:34,200 NATO mission. Since the very beginnings of NATO. We will 984 00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:41,640 continue to be there with effective and performing troops 985 00:57:41,670 --> 00:57:47,520 and supports to demonstrate our continued unflinching support 986 00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:49,140 for the Transatlantic Alliance. 987 00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:52,800 Trudeau spent the day in Latvia, where he formally announced that 988 00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:56,310 Canada will extend its mission in the country by another four 989 00:57:56,310 --> 00:58:00,240 years. It also means another 85 troops bringing the total in the 990 00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:04,740 race to 540. He visited some of those soldiers today, Trudeau 991 00:58:04,740 --> 00:58:08,430 will head to Belgium for the NATO Summit next, Trump has been 992 00:58:08,430 --> 00:58:12,630 calling for all NATO countries to pay 2% of their GDP towards 993 00:58:12,630 --> 00:58:16,230 military spending. For Canada, that would mean nearly doubling 994 00:58:16,230 --> 00:58:19,500 the defense budget. And the Prime Minister says Ottawa has 995 00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:21,060 no plans to do so. 996 00:58:21,180 --> 00:58:25,290 No. They have no plans to do so starts 997 00:58:25,290 --> 00:58:29,940 off as a big he's big supporter, but he won't, he won't agree to 998 00:58:30,540 --> 00:58:32,070 you guys. 999 00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:34,500 And this is a nice guys by bugs me 1000 00:58:34,529 --> 00:58:37,859 as another talking point there as well. You know, everybody 1001 00:58:37,859 --> 00:58:41,789 sent their troops, which you can see in two different ways and 1002 00:58:41,789 --> 00:58:44,579 multiple dimensions, you know, all other countries sent their 1003 00:58:44,579 --> 00:58:48,569 troops when we were fighting evil Saddam Hussein. Oops, wrong 1004 00:58:48,569 --> 00:58:55,229 guy in Iraq. But you know, you can also see those that didn't 1005 00:58:55,229 --> 00:58:58,289 feel like paying any so they just sent some children here. 1006 00:59:00,090 --> 00:59:00,960 We're good, right? 1007 00:59:02,220 --> 00:59:05,580 That's the way I see it. So yeah, we send some kids over and 1008 00:59:05,580 --> 00:59:06,330 get blowed up. 1009 00:59:07,319 --> 00:59:10,769 So we had a there was an incident with the guy, 1010 00:59:10,859 --> 00:59:15,239 unfortunately, it was produced this clip was produced. And it's 1011 00:59:16,469 --> 00:59:22,529 an I have to kind of kind of give a I had to cut it way down 1012 00:59:22,529 --> 00:59:26,759 because it was just not not usable. And it was true dough. 1013 00:59:28,229 --> 00:59:32,549 Stitch clips called blasting Trudeau. It's Trudeau at a, you 1014 00:59:32,549 --> 00:59:37,079 know, at some sort of a what do you call him us Town Hall. And 1015 00:59:37,079 --> 00:59:42,629 he is just veterans have no legs. And he's standing on these 1016 00:59:42,659 --> 00:59:46,829 these things and bitching about the fact that he can't get his 1017 00:59:47,039 --> 00:59:50,399 compensation from the Veterans Affairs after the government 1018 00:59:50,399 --> 00:59:53,369 promised are going to do nothing but good things for them. And 1019 00:59:53,399 --> 00:59:56,669 everybody seems to be in Canada seems to be upset about the fact 1020 00:59:56,669 --> 00:59:59,969 that well, they can't get their money. There's been a bunch of 1021 00:59:59,999 --> 01:00:02,279 Ex ISIS people. So this 1022 01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:05,130 is yeah, I have five seen this story. 1023 01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:10,080 Yeah, some ex ISIS guy got $10 million to compensation for 1024 01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:11,490 being called a name 1025 01:00:11,490 --> 01:00:14,220 or something from a different fund. You see, it's different. 1026 01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:15,360 Yes. 1027 01:00:15,630 --> 01:00:18,510 And so this guy's up there bitching. Now, what I want you 1028 01:00:18,510 --> 01:00:21,810 to you're gonna hear at the end of this guy's complaining, which 1029 01:00:21,810 --> 01:00:24,720 went on for a while. And then you're going to hear Trudeau and 1030 01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:29,070 I realized that Trudeau and the last clip you played, and Obama 1031 01:00:29,070 --> 01:00:33,270 to some extent, they all sound like big nurse from One Flew 1032 01:00:33,270 --> 01:00:36,780 Over the Cuckoo's Nest, like they're talking to insane 1033 01:00:36,810 --> 01:00:39,330 people. So, 1034 01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:43,890 again, my question is, what veterans were you talking about? 1035 01:00:43,890 --> 01:00:47,190 What's the ones that fought for the freedoms and values that you 1036 01:00:47,190 --> 01:00:50,250 so proudly boast about? Or what's the ones who fought 1037 01:00:50,250 --> 01:00:54,780 against? Because honestly, Mr. Prime Minister, I was prepared 1038 01:00:55,710 --> 01:00:58,110 to be injured in the line of duty when I went to him when I 1039 01:00:58,110 --> 01:01:00,930 joined the military. Nobody forced me to join the military. 1040 01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:05,370 I really liked the piano. John, it's really working for me. It's 1041 01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:07,440 just clutching my heartstrings. 1042 01:01:07,470 --> 01:01:12,360 I said, I apologize for that before the clip I did I people 1043 01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:16,170 that produce these clips, I know and then decide that for some 1044 01:01:16,170 --> 01:01:18,840 reason, I think it's cool to do. I don't think you should do that 1045 01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:19,740 on any show. No 1046 01:01:19,740 --> 01:01:23,400 ruined, frontline. Yeah. So I do want to point it out. And that 1047 01:01:23,400 --> 01:01:26,070 that's, that makes a difference. When you hear it with the piano 1048 01:01:26,070 --> 01:01:26,460 people. 1049 01:01:26,910 --> 01:01:32,280 I was prepared to be killed in action. Where it wasn't prepared 1050 01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:33,450 for Mr. Prime Minister. 1051 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:36,180 This actually, this actually, maybe this was a press 1052 01:01:36,180 --> 01:01:38,220 conference at Nordstrom. So is that possible? 1053 01:01:40,710 --> 01:01:42,990 It's funny because I was in Nordstrom the other day? Yes. 1054 01:01:42,990 --> 01:01:46,470 It's very. Yeah. Without just one of those self playing 1055 01:01:46,470 --> 01:01:47,160 pianos. 1056 01:01:47,670 --> 01:01:49,800 Oh, yeah. Cheap and the gun sheep. 1057 01:01:50,340 --> 01:01:55,680 I was prepared to be killed in action. Where I wasn't prepared 1058 01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:59,400 for Mr. Prime Minister. Is Canada, turning its back on me? 1059 01:02:05,310 --> 01:02:08,340 So which veteran was it that you're talking about? 1060 01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:14,790 Thank you, sir. Thank you, for your parents in your strength 1061 01:02:14,940 --> 01:02:20,130 and being here today to share this justifiable frustration and 1062 01:02:20,130 --> 01:02:25,080 anger. On a couple of elements you brought up, first of all, 1063 01:02:25,560 --> 01:02:29,880 why are we still fighting against certain veterans groups 1064 01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:34,410 in court? Because they're asking for more than we are able to 1065 01:02:34,410 --> 01:02:39,180 give right now. They're asking for more than what? Well, no, 1066 01:02:39,660 --> 01:02:51,870 hang on. You're asking. You're asking for honest answers. Wow. 1067 01:02:55,320 --> 01:02:59,370 Yeah, they turned on him. Yeah, they sure did. I don't have 1068 01:02:59,370 --> 01:03:01,770 enough money right now. That's not a very that's not very 1069 01:03:01,770 --> 01:03:02,610 satisfying. 1070 01:03:03,060 --> 01:03:06,390 No. really pissed or especially when this guy this $10 million 1071 01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:10,410 thing distribution to these ex ISIS, guys. I mean, it's come 1072 01:03:10,410 --> 01:03:12,180 on. It's very strange. 1073 01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:15,390 That that bit of the end, that's where you think it was like one 1074 01:03:15,390 --> 01:03:15,780 flew? 1075 01:03:17,220 --> 01:03:22,350 Yes. When he talks like like big nurse on the nurse, ratchet, 1076 01:03:22,350 --> 01:03:24,660 whatever her name is worth ratchet ratchet match it. I 1077 01:03:24,660 --> 01:03:28,110 can't remember her name. And she shows it now. It now used to be 1078 01:03:28,110 --> 01:03:32,430 more calm. You shouldn't be you shouldn't act this way. Because 1079 01:03:32,460 --> 01:03:35,280 yeah, you're right. Well, that is thanks can happen. 1080 01:03:35,310 --> 01:03:39,060 Yes. And that's what everybody wants to hear. That's that is 1081 01:03:39,060 --> 01:03:40,110 what that is what makes it 1082 01:03:40,110 --> 01:03:42,330 less apparent what they want to hear. They don't like the way 1083 01:03:42,330 --> 01:03:45,300 Trump presents things. That's for sure. But you brought this 1084 01:03:45,300 --> 01:03:51,600 up earlier when you talked about Obama's Obama's very slow and 1085 01:03:51,600 --> 01:04:00,180 calculated way of saying anything? Yes. And I'd say 1086 01:04:00,180 --> 01:04:02,550 Hillary fell into that category. I used to always say this, 1087 01:04:02,550 --> 01:04:05,550 because oh, she's such a wonderful speaker. You listen to 1088 01:04:05,550 --> 01:04:10,950 Hillary in her normal speaking pattern. It's word at a time as 1089 01:04:10,950 --> 01:04:13,170 though you're a three year old. 1090 01:04:13,710 --> 01:04:14,160 Yeah. 1091 01:04:17,400 --> 01:04:19,410 So I think we made our 1092 01:04:19,410 --> 01:04:22,470 point. Yes. Yeah. I don't think there's much, much left to say 1093 01:04:22,470 --> 01:04:24,930 and let's just see what happens. I mean, nothing probably. 1094 01:04:26,910 --> 01:04:29,910 Still the possibility that that big blimp can be 1095 01:04:30,600 --> 01:04:34,710 shot down that would still now I would really, really appreciate 1096 01:04:34,710 --> 01:04:37,200 that. That'd be very funny. That would be that would be footage 1097 01:04:37,200 --> 01:04:37,890 of the year. 1098 01:04:38,430 --> 01:04:42,210 And how can anyone resist? This is what gets me if the British 1099 01:04:42,210 --> 01:04:45,720 public, especially the Londoners, if can't find a way 1100 01:04:45,720 --> 01:04:49,830 to pop that thing. They really are. They've lost it. 1101 01:04:52,470 --> 01:04:55,110 Well, with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage. And 1102 01:04:55,110 --> 01:04:58,380 say in the morning to you, John. See you at the C stands for 1103 01:04:58,530 --> 01:05:01,380 controlling the drone With the blimp Devorah 1104 01:05:02,220 --> 01:05:06,000 in the morning to you Mr. Add Adam curry she was me. I can't 1105 01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:09,630 find my tube. Ah, in the morning all ships and sea boots on the 1106 01:05:09,630 --> 01:05:11,700 ground feet in the air subs in the water all the names and 1107 01:05:11,700 --> 01:05:12,540 dates out there. 1108 01:05:12,570 --> 01:05:15,090 Yes in the morning to everybody in the troll room there no 1109 01:05:15,090 --> 01:05:20,310 agenda stream.com helping me out is usually I'm always following 1110 01:05:20,310 --> 01:05:23,790 the troll room as, as we do the show live on Thursday and 1111 01:05:23,790 --> 01:05:26,790 Sunday. It's often extremely helpful, sometimes very 1112 01:05:26,790 --> 01:05:30,090 annoying, but that's what the trolls and I also want to say in 1113 01:05:30,090 --> 01:05:33,600 the morning to Mike Riley. He brought us the artwork for 1114 01:05:33,600 --> 01:05:37,230 episode 1049. The title of that episode, the previous one was 1115 01:05:37,230 --> 01:05:45,420 rent men. And there was a lot of good artwork. And we had some 1116 01:05:45,450 --> 01:05:49,320 choices to make. We could only choose one of course for the art 1117 01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:52,860 but several are contenders for newsletters and other uses. This 1118 01:05:52,860 --> 01:05:54,960 was the the map of the mall. 1119 01:05:56,520 --> 01:05:57,390 Yes, III, 1120 01:05:57,420 --> 01:06:01,230 it was a tough decision because there was a couple of the best 1121 01:06:01,410 --> 01:06:06,960 technically, I thought was the was the earplugs a year, 1122 01:06:07,110 --> 01:06:07,650 whatever the 1123 01:06:07,950 --> 01:06:10,230 Yeah, the ear buds ear buds. Yeah. 1124 01:06:12,060 --> 01:06:14,220 Yeah, it was because it related to some of the aspects of the 1125 01:06:14,220 --> 01:06:17,460 show and is really pretty well done. And we could probably find 1126 01:06:17,460 --> 01:06:21,570 a use for that someplace else. The mall art was one shot if we 1127 01:06:21,570 --> 01:06:24,180 weren't going to use it. Right? We wouldn't we were never going 1128 01:06:24,180 --> 01:06:27,510 to use but that's often the case. It was funny. It had humor 1129 01:06:27,540 --> 01:06:30,150 in it. And it was funnier than the other art. 1130 01:06:30,180 --> 01:06:33,180 Now then there was some al-shabaab guys with plastic 1131 01:06:33,180 --> 01:06:36,720 bags that didn't quite work. We'd like the marijuana 1132 01:06:36,720 --> 01:06:39,210 cigarette package made in Canada. That was funny. 1133 01:06:39,720 --> 01:06:40,740 I like to Facebook, 1134 01:06:41,430 --> 01:06:44,190 cigarettes, that was also good. It's hard to do. There's so much 1135 01:06:44,190 --> 01:06:45,600 good art it really is. 1136 01:06:45,840 --> 01:06:50,850 Well, it's either rent it rains it pours. That's true. We've had 1137 01:06:50,850 --> 01:06:55,890 many of show where there is nothing and nobody has gets a 1138 01:06:55,890 --> 01:06:58,620 clue. And we have to go back and dig around to find some 1139 01:06:58,620 --> 01:07:02,520 evergreen art which coincidentally, matches the show 1140 01:07:02,550 --> 01:07:06,570 right?

It is the Kyocera Dura XV LTE. Thanks to John in Lee 1341 01:21:03,750 --> 01:21:08,310 Valley, Pennsylvania who turned me on to this. Unbelievable. 1342 01:21:09,210 --> 01:21:10,800 This is It's a modern 1343 01:21:10,800 --> 01:21:12,060 flip phone say let me right. 1344 01:21:12,480 --> 01:21:15,510 You gotta pull it you're gonna want this phone. And in fact, I 1345 01:21:15,510 --> 01:21:20,310 am using it in the house more than my iPhone. Case. You're 1346 01:21:20,310 --> 01:21:28,080 what? dura x v. LTE. So it's an LTE does LTE radio and it's a 1347 01:21:28,080 --> 01:21:32,040 flip phone. But it's it's a military grade you know it has 1348 01:21:32,100 --> 01:21:35,430 has passed certification, you can run a tank over it, you can 1349 01:21:35,430 --> 01:21:39,030 throw it in the in the drink for six hours at a time. What is it 1350 01:21:39,030 --> 01:21:42,900 doing? It fits so comfortably in your hand. It's heavy ish. But 1351 01:21:42,900 --> 01:21:48,450 it's like, and I realize how dumb a smartphone is for 1352 01:21:48,450 --> 01:21:51,960 handling. And when you hold on to this, it's like, oh, you can 1353 01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:54,240 swing this around. You get you don't have to worry about it's 1354 01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:56,640 not going to fall out of your hand. But But here's what's 1355 01:21:56,640 --> 01:22:01,770 beautiful about it is it has a fully html5 compliant browser. 1356 01:22:01,890 --> 01:22:05,910 It even does the no agenda social.com which is like all 1357 01:22:05,910 --> 01:22:09,960 kinds of jacked up JavaScript and that thing is waterproof. 1358 01:22:09,990 --> 01:22:15,240 Waterproof. Yes, proof. It does IMAP email as fast, it's 1359 01:22:15,270 --> 01:22:18,990 blazingly fast. So it really doesn't do more than end up five 1360 01:22:18,990 --> 01:22:23,730 megapixel camera. It doesn't do much more than your browser, 1361 01:22:23,730 --> 01:22:26,160 which you can pretty much do everything that you need to do. 1362 01:22:27,060 --> 01:22:28,500 Of course, text messaging, 1363 01:22:28,860 --> 01:22:31,770 it's got a hole in it. So you can see the screen through the 1364 01:22:31,830 --> 01:22:32,250 no it 1365 01:22:32,250 --> 01:22:35,190 has a second screen on the front old school. It's two screens. 1366 01:22:35,190 --> 01:22:37,320 Yeah, the screen on the front gives you like little 1367 01:22:37,320 --> 01:22:38,190 notification. I 1368 01:22:38,190 --> 01:22:42,030 guess time it's got the time. Yeah, openness with time, but 1369 01:22:42,030 --> 01:22:45,600 very rugged looking. It looks like millet, it looks milspec 1370 01:22:45,630 --> 01:22:49,860 Yeah, but And what's so the only thing that of course is missing 1371 01:22:49,860 --> 01:22:53,910 is a QWERTY keyboard, because then I'd really be happy. But I 1372 01:22:53,910 --> 01:22:57,150 found that with it has really oversized buttons, it's meant 1373 01:22:57,150 --> 01:22:59,670 also for if you're you know you're climbing Mount Everest, 1374 01:22:59,670 --> 01:23:03,420 then you can still, you know, tap something out, which I now 1375 01:23:03,420 --> 01:23:08,040 find to be a feature. Because the phone is so fast. It does 1376 01:23:08,040 --> 01:23:11,400 think so well, that, you know now actually like Well, I'm not 1377 01:23:11,400 --> 01:23:14,190 going to send this text message now because you know, I have to 1378 01:23:14,190 --> 01:23:17,160 kind of concentrate on typing it out either with the, you know, 1379 01:23:17,160 --> 01:23:20,250 the click, click, click, click, click, click More with the 1380 01:23:20,280 --> 01:23:21,480 predictive text, 1381 01:23:21,720 --> 01:23:24,600 whatever it's called. And it's 65 bucks on Amazon, 1382 01:23:24,630 --> 01:23:28,560 I'm telling you, it's under $100. Thing is, the battery life 1383 01:23:28,560 --> 01:23:31,560 is nothing like a Nokia it's not five days, but it'll certainly 1384 01:23:31,560 --> 01:23:35,460 do two days with you know, with just regular use. I am blown 1385 01:23:35,460 --> 01:23:39,090 away by this YouTube videos plays them. I got your 1386 01:23:39,090 --> 01:23:42,810 newsletter the other day, open it up, it opened up in some kind 1387 01:23:42,810 --> 01:23:45,750 of editing software, which you can't find if you just say, you 1388 01:23:45,750 --> 01:23:47,910 know, if you're looking to open up the editing software, but 1389 01:23:47,910 --> 01:23:52,110 when I clicked on your Word doc, in the email program, it opened 1390 01:23:52,110 --> 01:23:55,440 up, I could edit it perfect. It's an unbelievable trick. It's 1391 01:23:55,440 --> 01:23:59,760 a great phone. And it does everything you need to do except 1392 01:23:59,760 --> 01:24:02,730 now it doesn't distract you. It's a very pro sanity type 1393 01:24:02,730 --> 01:24:07,860 device. And I know that the tracking is to a minimum because 1394 01:24:07,860 --> 01:24:11,490 I'm getting ads you know when I'm looking at any website just 1395 01:24:11,490 --> 01:24:15,480 trolling around, and it's all location based stuff. Hey, 1396 01:24:15,480 --> 01:24:18,210 Austin, so of course they can still find that in my location 1397 01:24:18,210 --> 01:24:19,380 that's not that hard to do 1398 01:24:20,040 --> 01:24:23,700 that and it's the GPS No, it made that yes, 1399 01:24:23,700 --> 01:24:26,580 it is turned off. There's no maps though. 1400 01:24:27,630 --> 01:24:29,400 Whose goods GPS without the map 1401 01:24:29,430 --> 01:24:33,120 I'm feeling I think this phone was made exclusively for AT and 1402 01:24:33,120 --> 01:24:36,810 T originally and they had an app an app infrastructure so you 1403 01:24:36,810 --> 01:24:41,040 could download a media center and some kind of mapping thing. 1404 01:24:41,460 --> 01:24:44,670 And that's that's no longer exists. So I'm not on AT and T 1405 01:24:44,670 --> 01:24:45,810 so I don't have access to it. And 1406 01:24:46,470 --> 01:24:50,130 the one here it says is the dura XV and it's a Verizon phone. Do 1407 01:24:50,130 --> 01:24:51,570 they have GSM? Yes, 1408 01:24:51,570 --> 01:24:55,470 I have. This is a GSM unlocked GSM okay, but it has an AT and T 1409 01:24:55,470 --> 01:24:57,600 logo on it and I'm using it on T Mobile so 1410 01:24:57,600 --> 01:24:59,520 you're probably right it's probably a surplus. 1411 01:24:59,670 --> 01:25:03,900 Yeah. Oh, no, it's totally surplus. But this is a it's so 1412 01:25:03,900 --> 01:25:08,730 fast. Yet it's it's slow enough that you, you know, you don't 1413 01:25:08,730 --> 01:25:11,370 get obsessed with your phone like and the screen is just 1414 01:25:11,370 --> 01:25:15,270 small enough that is as like, oh, I can look at some stuff for 1415 01:25:15,270 --> 01:25:18,540 a little bit and I'm done. It's it's really working against all 1416 01:25:18,540 --> 01:25:23,040 of your instincts to want to do more, and it kind of slows you 1417 01:25:23,040 --> 01:25:25,740 down, but not where it counts, which is you know, rendering a 1418 01:25:25,740 --> 01:25:29,370 webpage, getting your email opening a picture, taking a 1419 01:25:29,370 --> 01:25:34,500 picture, very happy with that device. I'm over the e 71. Hands 1420 01:25:34,500 --> 01:25:39,720 down, in particular because it has a future. And it is it's I 1421 01:25:39,720 --> 01:25:43,620 think there may be some low level tracking stuff because I 1422 01:25:43,620 --> 01:25:48,390 think it's some custom weird version of Android four or 1423 01:25:48,390 --> 01:25:53,610 something that's under the hood. I'm not quite sure exactly. 1424 01:25:53,610 --> 01:25:56,400 Again. Yeah, it was all custom. They did a lot of work. 1425 01:25:58,500 --> 01:26:00,690 It's really cool to have a flip phone. 1426 01:26:01,500 --> 01:26:05,550 And you know what? The adults under 40 As we now call them, 1427 01:26:05,850 --> 01:26:09,060 they love it. Like oh, cool, and they flip it open. Oh, I had one 1428 01:26:09,060 --> 01:26:12,120 of these. Yeah, these are great. And they and they like it, you 1429 01:26:12,120 --> 01:26:14,730 know, like, oh, yeah, remember? You can you can so it's so fun 1430 01:26:14,730 --> 01:26:18,210 to rage hang up on someone just by snapping the lid shut. You 1431 01:26:18,210 --> 01:26:22,380 know, like, screw. Yeah, boom, done. And this one, the lid 1432 01:26:22,380 --> 01:26:24,960 actually stays on. The lid doesn't fly off. Because it's 1433 01:26:24,960 --> 01:26:30,480 it's made of just it's rubber. It's fantastic. Great device. 1434 01:26:30,930 --> 01:26:34,590 All right. Little fat in the pocket. Little. Yes, that's a 1435 01:26:34,590 --> 01:26:41,010 real that's a real tip, real tip. Let me see. Do you have 1436 01:26:41,010 --> 01:26:43,710 anything in our OT anatomy? We have a lot of OTG stuff that was 1437 01:26:43,710 --> 01:26:47,370 really accepted. There's there is some question. Now Facebook 1438 01:26:47,370 --> 01:26:52,530 is trying to figure out how they influence elections as a story 1439 01:26:52,530 --> 01:26:55,020 in The Wall Street Journal, if there's over the weekend that 1440 01:26:55,020 --> 01:27:03,360 they've given researchers full access for election studies. And 1441 01:27:03,360 --> 01:27:07,620 this new group of academics who get like, I think they're 1442 01:27:07,620 --> 01:27:11,550 talking about 2.2 billion records. Sounds like a lot. 1443 01:27:14,700 --> 01:27:16,290 Let me see. What do you have here? 1444 01:27:17,820 --> 01:27:21,780 What is the name of this? Yeah, okay. So social science. One is 1445 01:27:21,780 --> 01:27:24,870 the name of the group performed earlier this year with backing 1446 01:27:24,870 --> 01:27:28,560 from nonprofits, including the John S and James L. Knight 1447 01:27:28,560 --> 01:27:35,460 Foundation, and the Charles Koch Foundation. And they have $25 1448 01:27:35,460 --> 01:27:41,400 million. They're giving away to researchers who have proposals 1449 01:27:41,400 --> 01:27:47,400 for understanding how social media specifically face bag that 1450 01:27:47,400 --> 01:27:52,080 influences or can be used to influence elections. But in the 1451 01:27:52,080 --> 01:27:54,690 meantime, they've given these jabroni is everyone's data. 1452 01:27:57,210 --> 01:27:58,320 Which I find rather, I 1453 01:27:58,320 --> 01:28:02,100 mean, the first thing that comes to mind, to my mind is I don't 1454 01:28:02,100 --> 01:28:04,230 think that Facebook necessarily 1455 01:28:06,480 --> 01:28:08,190 sways elections. 1456 01:28:08,610 --> 01:28:11,070 Well, no, that's why that's why the whole thing is ridiculous. I 1457 01:28:11,070 --> 01:28:12,210 mean, what are they thinking? 1458 01:28:13,860 --> 01:28:17,310 Someone he definitely gets groups riled up. 1459 01:28:17,549 --> 01:28:21,269 Now someone, someone just put together a money making scheme. 1460 01:28:21,269 --> 01:28:23,309 And once again, we're not in it. 1461 01:28:23,790 --> 01:28:29,220 Yeah, no, we gotta get into one of these deals. Oh, well, we 1462 01:28:29,220 --> 01:28:31,860 anybody out there can do good grant writing. That's the word 1463 01:28:31,890 --> 01:28:34,530 that we need, we get a grantsmanship guy, because 1464 01:28:34,530 --> 01:28:37,230 that's what this is all about is kind of a combination of a grant 1465 01:28:37,350 --> 01:28:40,950 and a proposal. Yeah. Because the grant grant writers can do 1466 01:28:40,950 --> 01:28:41,760 that kind of work 1467 01:28:42,870 --> 01:28:46,710 to it, but did want to mention that, you know, whereas I'm 1468 01:28:47,340 --> 01:28:50,880 particularly concerned why I kind of gave up on you know, 1469 01:28:50,880 --> 01:28:53,670 what the government is spying on you, you can only protect 1470 01:28:53,670 --> 01:28:59,850 yourself so much. But what technology is doing it's, it's, 1471 01:28:59,940 --> 01:29:03,300 it's made a change in human behavior, which is very 1472 01:29:03,300 --> 01:29:05,880 troubling. And there's a story that I came across I don't know 1473 01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:10,470 if you saw this, it was a big Twitter thread this guy in a GAO 1474 01:29:10,680 --> 01:29:18,960 on the flight and some southern lady asked to switch seats. So 1475 01:29:18,960 --> 01:29:21,840 I'm like sweet southern lady with a drawl Can I switch seats 1476 01:29:21,840 --> 01:29:24,510 so she could be next to her boyfriend or whatever it was, 1477 01:29:24,990 --> 01:29:28,230 ends anyway. So this this couple this other couple who swapped 1478 01:29:28,230 --> 01:29:31,620 seats now they're, they're sitting behind these two people, 1479 01:29:32,130 --> 01:29:35,460 and the entire flight they're taking pictures of them from 1480 01:29:35,460 --> 01:29:39,330 behind, or you know, sneaky like walking up the aisle and take a 1481 01:29:39,330 --> 01:29:43,290 little little picture. And they're documenting in a in a in 1482 01:29:43,290 --> 01:29:46,500 a tweet stream, this romance that they've they're like, Oh, 1483 01:29:46,500 --> 01:29:49,020 it's a romance is coming together and maybe we had 1484 01:29:49,020 --> 01:29:52,830 something to do with it. And it was like, Oh, this is so great. 1485 01:29:52,830 --> 01:29:56,880 It's the best thing on Twitter and all this is fabulous is like 1486 01:29:56,910 --> 01:30:01,980 you are invading these people's privacy. And everyone's cheering 1487 01:30:01,980 --> 01:30:02,610 it on. 1488 01:30:05,279 --> 01:30:06,029 It was it was 1489 01:30:06,059 --> 01:30:09,659 bizarre. Yeah, that kind of thing is kind of bizarre and it 1490 01:30:09,659 --> 01:30:13,769 does happen. And it does it is invasion of privacy, and it gets 1491 01:30:13,769 --> 01:30:17,249 cheered on your right is something that is a fundamental 1492 01:30:17,249 --> 01:30:20,909 change, I think I could be wrong. But I think it's a 1493 01:30:20,909 --> 01:30:21,479 fundamental. 1494 01:30:21,719 --> 01:30:24,839 So they're completely just creating a story or a narrative, 1495 01:30:24,839 --> 01:30:28,259 if you will, about these two people, which is very much in 1496 01:30:28,259 --> 01:30:30,749 line that we've talked about this, this is very much in line 1497 01:30:30,749 --> 01:30:33,449 with how I think Instagram works, you know, you see a 1498 01:30:33,449 --> 01:30:36,719 picture and then you see, oh, we have a baby. And the next 1499 01:30:36,719 --> 01:30:39,659 pictures, you know, the baby's two months old, and all that 1500 01:30:39,659 --> 01:30:42,629 space in between, you know, you build up with happy story, happy 1501 01:30:42,629 --> 01:30:46,739 thoughts, all these people are so fun. And we've created this 1502 01:30:46,769 --> 01:30:50,369 innate ability to really enhance our storytelling capability 1503 01:30:50,369 --> 01:30:54,059 based on just, you know, simple snapshots and just make stuff 1504 01:30:54,059 --> 01:30:56,939 up. And it fits, you know, it feels like oh, yeah, I feel good 1505 01:30:56,939 --> 01:30:59,549 about that, and fit down the story. Sounds right. Give me 1506 01:30:59,549 --> 01:31:06,809 more. It's a very odd thing. But it's it's cultural, it's 1507 01:31:06,809 --> 01:31:11,249 cultural. And we're all in. And I was kind of horrified like, 1508 01:31:11,700 --> 01:31:14,130 it, it's just an expression of something that already exists 1509 01:31:14,130 --> 01:31:17,490 and was being suffocated, maybe wasn't getting enough attention. 1510 01:31:17,490 --> 01:31:19,830 And all it's done is brought it to the fore. It was but it's 1511 01:31:19,830 --> 01:31:22,110 always been within the system and hasn't changed anything. Is 1512 01:31:22,110 --> 01:31:23,310 that possible, possible, 1513 01:31:23,310 --> 01:31:27,450 but what changed? What changed is that you can share it with 1514 01:31:27,450 --> 01:31:31,950 the entire world. That's a technological change and not 1515 01:31:31,950 --> 01:31:33,030 necessarily a good one. 1516 01:31:33,540 --> 01:31:37,770 Well, I would argue just the opposite. Okay. 1517 01:31:38,190 --> 01:31:39,180 It's a good thing. 1518 01:31:39,750 --> 01:31:42,690 Why is this what people want is part of the community of the of 1519 01:31:42,690 --> 01:31:43,410 mankind, 1520 01:31:43,469 --> 01:31:47,009 okay? It's just, it's not like we can stop it. It's just the 1521 01:31:47,009 --> 01:31:50,039 towards go. Yeah, I'm cognizant of this. Because when I was to 1522 01:31:50,039 --> 01:31:55,649 celebrate it, it was it was odd. Because you'd never want to be 1523 01:31:55,649 --> 01:32:00,419 caught with your, with your cellulite out, you know, you're, 1524 01:32:01,079 --> 01:32:05,579 you're aware that people are observing you and taking photos 1525 01:32:05,579 --> 01:32:08,759 of you and doing that secretly and doing all kinds of, you 1526 01:32:08,759 --> 01:32:11,339 know, like surveillance type things, but you're very aware of 1527 01:32:11,339 --> 01:32:13,259 it, and you get these filters and you build that up, but it's 1528 01:32:13,259 --> 01:32:16,409 not necessarily a nice way to live. Thinking about I would 1529 01:32:16,409 --> 01:32:18,929 think it's a terrible way to live. That's the life of a 1530 01:32:18,929 --> 01:32:21,809 celebrity. That's why he would go live in a gated mansion. 1531 01:32:22,649 --> 01:32:26,039 Yeah, so of course, the I don't need that anymore. Now it's 1532 01:32:26,039 --> 01:32:26,849 just, you know, 1533 01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:27,840 a you live. 1534 01:32:28,050 --> 01:32:30,900 I'm just one shopping cart away from being like the homeless guy 1535 01:32:30,900 --> 01:32:31,800 on Second Street. 1536 01:32:31,980 --> 01:32:35,070 Well, that will get you back into the top of the news, 1537 01:32:35,370 --> 01:32:39,360 though. Yes. Yeah, like because Oh, another guy's broke. 1538 01:32:40,200 --> 01:32:44,940 Homeless. Adam curry is now homeless. Yeah, I tried to be a 1539 01:32:44,940 --> 01:32:47,250 podcaster. He said VH, one 1540 01:32:47,250 --> 01:32:50,670 behind the music. Whatever happened to 1541 01:32:52,020 --> 01:32:55,530 Adam curry after him or podcaster have to drop into 1542 01:32:55,530 --> 01:32:59,460 level of pocket. This podcast goes out. We lost all our 1543 01:32:59,460 --> 01:33:04,020 support. No, we're contributing money. And then they stopped. 1544 01:33:04,350 --> 01:33:08,850 Here's Jordan Peterson talking about the podcast. I wish it was 1545 01:33:08,880 --> 01:33:13,260 specifically about ours. But I when I heard him say this, I was 1546 01:33:13,260 --> 01:33:16,200 like, oh, yeah, I forgot. Yeah, hell yeah. Yes, 1547 01:33:16,200 --> 01:33:19,530 videos is that you can't do anything else while you're doing 1548 01:33:19,530 --> 01:33:22,920 them. Right. When you're reading you're reading. When you're 1549 01:33:22,920 --> 01:33:25,710 watching a video, you know, you can be distracted, but you have 1550 01:33:25,710 --> 01:33:28,650 to pay attention to the video. But if you're listening to a 1551 01:33:28,650 --> 01:33:33,270 podcast, you can be driving a forklift or a long haul truck. 1552 01:33:33,840 --> 01:33:36,540 Or you can be exercising or doing the dishes. And so what 1553 01:33:36,540 --> 01:33:40,830 that means is that podcasts free up, say two hours a day for 1554 01:33:40,830 --> 01:33:45,060 people to engage in educational activities that they wouldn't 1555 01:33:45,060 --> 01:33:48,180 otherwise be able to engage in. And that's about 1/8 of people's 1556 01:33:48,180 --> 01:33:52,920 lives. So podcasts, hand people 1/8 of their life back to engage 1557 01:33:52,920 --> 01:33:59,670 in high level education. So then I thought, well, we'll actually 1558 01:33:59,670 --> 01:34:03,090 want to do this. There's a massive market for high level 1559 01:34:03,090 --> 01:34:06,720 intellectual engagement that's much deeper, and, and, and more 1560 01:34:06,720 --> 01:34:09,810 desperate, let's say than anyone suspected. I think one of the 1561 01:34:09,810 --> 01:34:12,330 things I've realized in the last couple of days, as I've been 1562 01:34:12,330 --> 01:34:15,120 thinking this through is that the narrow bandwidth of TV has 1563 01:34:15,120 --> 01:34:18,750 made us think we're stupid or than we are. And so people have 1564 01:34:18,750 --> 01:34:22,020 a real hunger for deep intellectual dialogue and and 1565 01:34:22,080 --> 01:34:26,490 that can be met with these new technologies. And that has 1566 01:34:26,490 --> 01:34:29,190 revolutionary significance. And that's starting to unfold. 1567 01:34:29,280 --> 01:34:29,610 You're 1568 01:34:29,610 --> 01:34:34,920 welcome. You're ever so welcome. Let's let's put this to the 1569 01:34:34,920 --> 01:34:38,220 test, shall we? He says, Well, let me just put this to the test 1570 01:34:38,220 --> 01:34:42,120 for a second. He says that the bandwidth of television has 1571 01:34:42,120 --> 01:34:46,200 become so narrow, that people are just clamoring for something 1572 01:34:46,200 --> 01:34:50,490 intellectual. And I would say that to a degree. The no agenda 1573 01:34:50,490 --> 01:34:53,520 show is intellectual. At least we're challenging our intellect 1574 01:34:53,520 --> 01:34:54,480 which is a challenge by 1575 01:34:54,480 --> 01:34:56,910 itself challenging the way people look at things. Let's 1576 01:34:56,940 --> 01:34:59,220 have a quick just a litmus test. Let's 1577 01:34:59,220 --> 01:35:03,450 see what's new. One television station is coming to TLC. What I 1578 01:35:03,450 --> 01:35:05,490 do isn't just pimple popping. 1579 01:35:05,520 --> 01:35:09,870 I don't want to be a hunchback. I'm changing people's lives. Oh 1580 01:35:09,870 --> 01:35:12,480 my gosh, Dr. Pimple Popper 1581 01:35:12,570 --> 01:35:14,700 begins Wednesday at 10 on TLC. 1582 01:35:16,800 --> 01:35:21,540 Yes, I've heard about this show. I think Jay was talking about 1583 01:35:21,540 --> 01:35:27,930 and I said I thought she was just putting me on. No, no it's 1584 01:35:27,930 --> 01:35:33,330 a real show and she she pops blackheads she's What are you 1585 01:35:33,600 --> 01:35:37,050 know? Yeah she that's what she that's what goes on. It's just a 1586 01:35:37,320 --> 01:35:42,150 is a show that is so so inane that now television because 1587 01:35:42,150 --> 01:35:45,240 there's someone popping blackheads. I mean that Talia 1588 01:35:45,270 --> 01:35:48,630 yeah, by the way, we do have a meetup coming up in Toronto. 1589 01:35:48,660 --> 01:35:49,740 Now. I won't be there. I have 1590 01:35:49,740 --> 01:35:52,950 the meetups on the list, actually. But yeah. Do you want 1591 01:35:52,950 --> 01:35:56,250 to talk about them? I have the info here. The 99 A bit 1592 01:35:56,250 --> 01:35:58,290 of Toronto me that the reason I'm saying that is because 1593 01:35:58,290 --> 01:36:02,100 Jordan Peterson it'll be in into front of his lecture. Oh, that's 1594 01:36:02,100 --> 01:36:05,160 right. That's right. Okay, good. Right across the street. And 1595 01:36:05,160 --> 01:36:06,870 you're gonna try to get Peterson to come to the 1596 01:36:07,410 --> 01:36:11,550 meetup. Well, have somebody record him saying something nice 1597 01:36:11,550 --> 01:36:13,890 about the no agenda or something not nice. That's either way, 1598 01:36:13,920 --> 01:36:17,010 just something I just haven't said on the morning. 1599 01:36:19,380 --> 01:36:23,970 Please, yeah, in the no agenda show. And let's see, just start 1600 01:36:23,970 --> 01:36:26,820 collecting those those clips like do these do an old time 1601 01:36:26,820 --> 01:36:27,330 radio. 1602 01:36:30,090 --> 01:36:33,510 You know, these little spots? Yeah, little spots. 1603 01:36:34,200 --> 01:36:38,640 Let's, oh, I had dinner with a former New York banker. And I 1604 01:36:38,640 --> 01:36:42,210 had the opportunity to ask him specifically about about 1605 01:36:42,210 --> 01:36:46,920 Deutsche Bank and the money to Trump and this came from a clip 1606 01:36:46,920 --> 01:36:49,800 a meme, which I don't know if it's here today. These things 1607 01:36:49,800 --> 01:36:54,300 are here today, gone tomorrow. That if the Democrats win the 1608 01:36:54,300 --> 01:36:58,560 house that Maxine Waters becomes the chair of some oversight 1609 01:36:58,560 --> 01:37:01,860 committee, and then she has the power to subpoena that Deutsche 1610 01:37:01,860 --> 01:37:08,820 Bank bank records. Hey, that'll show him Hey. So reason for me 1611 01:37:08,820 --> 01:37:14,280 to ask the former New York banker. What deals and he knows 1612 01:37:14,280 --> 01:37:18,390 very well. Are you interested in hearing what deals Trump did 1613 01:37:18,390 --> 01:37:25,500 with Deutsche Bank? He knows. Yes. Go for it. Yes. He knows 1614 01:37:25,500 --> 01:37:29,550 exactly for a number of reasons. That Space Force, Space Force is 1615 01:37:29,550 --> 01:37:34,440 the main reason there was one loan and one loan only ever. And 1616 01:37:34,440 --> 01:37:37,680 it was about it was a small loan. He said about $100 million 1617 01:37:38,040 --> 01:37:42,180 or so during the time that the loan was outstanding. He sued 1618 01:37:42,180 --> 01:37:45,030 Deutsche Bank twice, which to them was just, you know, the 1619 01:37:45,240 --> 01:37:47,610 cost of doing business with Trump. I thought it was funny. 1620 01:37:47,610 --> 01:37:50,850 And he says that Deutsche Bank made a lot of money. They did 1621 01:37:50,850 --> 01:37:55,320 very well, on that loan. They were very happy. And that was 1622 01:37:55,320 --> 01:37:59,760 the only time they did any money with them. So that's it one 1623 01:37:59,760 --> 01:38:01,470 time, one time only. 1624 01:38:03,390 --> 01:38:04,590 And well, that stinks. 1625 01:38:04,620 --> 01:38:09,120 I think it was for the Chicago tower. In Chicago, but no, it 1626 01:38:09,120 --> 01:38:10,080 doesn't stink. 1627 01:38:10,620 --> 01:38:13,800 No, I mean, it stinks. If you're like trying to get Trump on some 1628 01:38:14,010 --> 01:38:15,030 drum. Yes. 1629 01:38:15,030 --> 01:38:19,140 Charges. Yes, exactly. So everyone's Whoa, Deutsche Bank. 1630 01:38:19,140 --> 01:38:20,940 Yeah, so that's where all the money is. That's where the 1631 01:38:20,940 --> 01:38:24,570 Russian money came in now. And the defender of your banker, you 1632 01:38:24,570 --> 01:38:27,120 would be honest with me. He'd say, something fishy going on. 1633 01:38:27,120 --> 01:38:30,540 He may not tell me exactly. But he was very clear on this total 1634 01:38:30,540 --> 01:38:31,980 horseshit. Good. I 1635 01:38:31,980 --> 01:38:34,590 hope Maxine calls him up to testify. Yeah. 1636 01:38:36,960 --> 01:38:38,580 The New York banker Oh, boy. 1637 01:38:42,240 --> 01:38:48,720 That was interesting. I did have one clip that was should have 1638 01:38:48,720 --> 01:38:52,110 played earlier, when we were talking about Brexit. He was 1639 01:38:52,110 --> 01:38:54,930 Faraj kind of bitching and moaning about the whole thing 1640 01:38:54,930 --> 01:38:57,600 going south, because I think he's finally coming to the 1641 01:38:57,600 --> 01:39:00,840 realization that he's the one really behind all this. And I 1642 01:39:00,840 --> 01:39:02,700 want to mention to people that haven't listened to the show for 1643 01:39:02,700 --> 01:39:08,460 a long time. We were on to Faraj as a mover and shaker years way 1644 01:39:08,460 --> 01:39:09,480 before anybody. 1645 01:39:09,510 --> 01:39:13,770 Yeah. And in fact, what did we get most of the time from from 1646 01:39:13,770 --> 01:39:18,870 our British producers? Yeah. Oh, man. No, he's a racist. He's a 1647 01:39:18,870 --> 01:39:21,480 horrible he's a dick. He's Nazi. 1648 01:39:21,599 --> 01:39:24,929 You guys are wrong. Yes, it knows anything. 1649 01:39:24,960 --> 01:39:29,220 No one cares about him. He's marginalized. Yeah, we do 1650 01:39:29,220 --> 01:39:32,190 identify the hits. We pick the hits here on the no agenda show 1651 01:39:32,220 --> 01:39:33,030 was listen to this, 1652 01:39:33,060 --> 01:39:37,350 Mrs. May, if you believe what you're told, is about to take us 1653 01:39:37,350 --> 01:39:43,470 down a route, where effectively we would stay inside the single 1654 01:39:43,470 --> 01:39:46,440 market for goods. That's the bit of course where they sell us a 1655 01:39:46,440 --> 01:39:50,520 lot more than we sell them. The whole thing would be the most 1656 01:39:50,520 --> 01:39:54,750 extraordinary set out it will be Brexit in name only. We become 1657 01:39:54,750 --> 01:39:59,070 like Norway, but without even having the fish. So that's why 1658 01:39:59,160 --> 01:40:02,070 the Euroskeptics are Meeting, they're planning a fight back, 1659 01:40:02,070 --> 01:40:06,690 but well, they really have the guts to do what's necessary. And 1660 01:40:06,690 --> 01:40:10,440 I think frankly, if she's prepared to give in to this 1661 01:40:10,440 --> 01:40:14,100 extent, what is actually necessary is to get rid of her 1662 01:40:14,970 --> 01:40:18,450 to work on the fact that over the course of August, Monsieur 1663 01:40:18,450 --> 01:40:21,600 Barnier won't be negotiating. He'll be on a Mediterranean 1664 01:40:21,600 --> 01:40:24,810 beach somewhere and find a new leader to come back and try and 1665 01:40:24,810 --> 01:40:28,290 save the Brexit talks. We will see nothing will come out 1666 01:40:28,470 --> 01:40:31,980 tomorrow. We'll start to get leaked reports maybe late 1667 01:40:31,980 --> 01:40:35,010 tomorrow night and by Sunday, I've no doubt when I'm back here 1668 01:40:35,010 --> 01:40:38,100 in this chair on Sunday morning, we will find out what has what 1669 01:40:38,100 --> 01:40:42,840 has not been agreed. But there's no doubt that a real clean 1670 01:40:42,870 --> 01:40:47,100 democratic Brexit is now in crisis. And I have to say, I 1671 01:40:47,100 --> 01:40:49,530 think the lack of leadership from our prime minister is the 1672 01:40:49,530 --> 01:40:50,400 main problem. 1673 01:40:51,060 --> 01:40:53,820 Yeah, he's if he's gonna have to go back in which he keeps 1674 01:40:53,820 --> 01:40:58,500 threatening. It goes away wants to do it. Well, that's what he 1675 01:40:58,500 --> 01:41:01,230 says. But what else would the guy do? He does? He's a natural. 1676 01:41:01,230 --> 01:41:01,890 He loves it. 1677 01:41:02,640 --> 01:41:07,890 Come on. He loves likes doing this talk show on LBC. Yeah, 1678 01:41:07,890 --> 01:41:11,550 well, any last night showing up he's on Fox contributor he gets 1679 01:41:11,550 --> 01:41:16,800 to go on Fox few snide comments gets paid for that. I mean, his 1680 01:41:16,800 --> 01:41:19,080 business was always the beat, which people always get wrong. 1681 01:41:19,080 --> 01:41:24,900 He was a metals trader. Yes. In London, City of London, and 1682 01:41:25,860 --> 01:41:31,200 somehow got political and reluctance. Yeah, well, you 1683 01:41:31,200 --> 01:41:34,590 might be right about this part. Claiming to never wanting to do 1684 01:41:34,590 --> 01:41:37,110 any of it. He just had to do it. Now. He 1685 01:41:37,110 --> 01:41:41,010 loves it. He loves it. I can see it. The guy loves doing it. Good 1686 01:41:41,010 --> 01:41:49,650 on him. Hey, loves hanging out with Trump. Let Well, talking 1687 01:41:49,650 --> 01:41:51,990 about being pulled apart. That's about to happen to 1688 01:41:53,670 --> 01:41:54,840 judge Kavanaugh, 1689 01:41:56,130 --> 01:42:00,090 who will now go through the rigorous process of being 1690 01:42:00,090 --> 01:42:06,180 confirmed by the United States Senate to be on the Supreme 1691 01:42:06,180 --> 01:42:11,160 Court, which the Supreme Court before we even get into any of 1692 01:42:11,160 --> 01:42:15,360 that. Where exactly do the in the Constitution do they get 1693 01:42:15,360 --> 01:42:16,530 their power from? 1694 01:42:19,110 --> 01:42:20,760 Because I don't really see 1695 01:42:20,760 --> 01:42:22,650 the third part of government. 1696 01:42:22,680 --> 01:42:26,790 Right. But so does that mean that they're that would they say 1697 01:42:26,790 --> 01:42:29,580 is law that would they say goes because that's the way it's 1698 01:42:29,580 --> 01:42:33,420 treated? Now? Yeah, that kind of started in 1974. For real? 1699 01:42:33,990 --> 01:42:37,770 Well, they're the arbiters of the WTO laws are made by 1700 01:42:37,770 --> 01:42:41,370 Congress, not made by the President or not made by the 1701 01:42:41,370 --> 01:42:45,720 judiciary. Right. Congress makes the laws and the Judiciary's 1702 01:42:45,720 --> 01:42:50,160 job, if it comes up has to determine whether or not those 1703 01:42:50,160 --> 01:42:53,070 laws meet the constitutional requirements. 1704 01:42:53,309 --> 01:42:57,209 That's to call this called judicial review. Yes, it now the 1705 01:42:57,209 --> 01:43:00,239 way I understand what they do when the Constitution was put 1706 01:43:00,239 --> 01:43:05,819 together, and I actually can't I'm not a constitutional lawyer. 1707 01:43:06,449 --> 01:43:09,599 But there was no, I mean, yes, you had, neither of the branches 1708 01:43:09,599 --> 01:43:14,099 has the final say. That's my point, is like they can say, 1709 01:43:14,129 --> 01:43:18,719 well, this is unconstitutional. And then Congress has to change 1710 01:43:18,779 --> 01:43:23,039 or can change the law or adapted however they want, but it can 1711 01:43:23,039 --> 01:43:27,029 rewrite it. Yeah. But they don't Is it? Is it a requirement that 1712 01:43:27,029 --> 01:43:29,759 if something is deemed unconstitutional by the Supreme 1713 01:43:29,759 --> 01:43:32,819 Court by the judiciary, that then the legislation this 1714 01:43:32,819 --> 01:43:38,039 legislative branch, are they beholden to like like Germany to 1715 01:43:38,039 --> 01:43:39,809 Russia? They have, 1716 01:43:40,080 --> 01:43:42,870 they can just let it slide. Just say, Okay, well, that law is not 1717 01:43:42,870 --> 01:43:45,000 gonna be enforced anymore, because it's unconstitutional. 1718 01:43:45,000 --> 01:43:47,760 Cuz every time he gets if it kept getting enforced, it kept 1719 01:43:47,760 --> 01:43:49,350 getting sued. It wouldn't work out. 1720 01:43:49,410 --> 01:43:53,490 Okay. Oh, that's probably also somewhere in the Constitution. 1721 01:43:53,520 --> 01:43:57,420 Hey, we'll just sue. Yeah. I don't know it just to me, it's a 1722 01:43:57,420 --> 01:44:02,730 little confusing. I mean, I've always I have always believed 1723 01:44:02,730 --> 01:44:06,120 the Supreme Court, like when they say, this is this is good. 1724 01:44:06,120 --> 01:44:08,280 This is not good. That's the final say. And that's the way 1725 01:44:08,280 --> 01:44:11,670 it's generally accepted. I'm just wondering if to the letter 1726 01:44:11,670 --> 01:44:13,920 of the law. And we have constitutional lawyers who 1727 01:44:13,920 --> 01:44:18,690 listen, you know, how, what if Congress says, Well, screw you. 1728 01:44:19,140 --> 01:44:21,600 Yeah. Forget the lawsuits. What did they say? Well, 1729 01:44:22,530 --> 01:44:24,720 it doesn't mean anything. Congress has no power of 1730 01:44:24,720 --> 01:44:28,410 authority to enforce these laws. It's destined still the others 1731 01:44:28,440 --> 01:44:33,150 the judicial side, this the the court system in the country is 1732 01:44:33,150 --> 01:44:37,800 all is all kind of a part of the supreme court system. And so if 1733 01:44:37,800 --> 01:44:40,320 they Congress has now we're going to keep this law too bad. 1734 01:44:40,530 --> 01:44:42,540 It doesn't make any difference because the police won't be able 1735 01:44:42,540 --> 01:44:44,700 to enforce the law. I mean, the whole thing would be just the 1736 01:44:44,700 --> 01:44:47,430 joke. It would be a constitutional crisis. It 1737 01:44:47,430 --> 01:44:49,680 wouldn't be a crisis because no one would do anything about they 1738 01:44:49,680 --> 01:44:53,340 would just die. You'd be dead letter law. Okay. 1739 01:44:54,540 --> 01:45:00,840 Well, this, this pick certainly kicked off a crap Storm of epic 1740 01:45:00,840 --> 01:45:01,680 proportions. 1741 01:45:01,710 --> 01:45:04,110 No, it was gonna no matter who they picked, if they would have 1742 01:45:04,110 --> 01:45:09,840 picked Mother Teresa as a corpse, it would. These guys 1743 01:45:10,500 --> 01:45:14,220 don't want Trump to get anything through until the price until 1744 01:45:14,220 --> 01:45:17,430 the election is over. So they so they maybe can get the Democrats 1745 01:45:17,430 --> 01:45:19,500 hope to God that they can get the Senate back. 1746 01:45:19,530 --> 01:45:22,800 Well, and I'll tell you, the Democrats are they came out in 1747 01:45:22,800 --> 01:45:27,150 full force. As you know, I've contributed to multiple parties 1748 01:45:27,150 --> 01:45:29,700 for certainly Republican and Democrat parties to get on the 1749 01:45:29,700 --> 01:45:33,690 mailing list. Oh my god. It was a pitching moment for everybody. 1750 01:45:34,140 --> 01:45:37,020 Everybody send them out. It was donation time. 1751 01:45:37,410 --> 01:45:39,840 Here's what this is just a big money grab. Yeah. Here's 1752 01:45:39,840 --> 01:45:44,760 Elizabeth Warren's note. Brett Kavanaugh. That's the name of 1753 01:45:44,760 --> 01:45:49,710 Donald Trump's awful Supreme Court nominee. As a judge he has 1754 01:45:49,710 --> 01:45:52,890 a long record of decisions that hurts women workers and 1755 01:45:52,890 --> 01:45:57,450 consumers. Trump's nomination of Brett Kavanaugh last night puts 1756 01:45:57,450 --> 01:46:02,880 rights we hold dear at stake like never before women's rights 1757 01:46:02,880 --> 01:46:06,240 to control their own bodies, workers rights, consumers 1758 01:46:06,240 --> 01:46:09,810 rights, you name it. They could all get squeezed to the breaking 1759 01:46:09,810 --> 01:46:14,130 point if Kavanaugh is confirmed. Our only chance to stop Brett 1760 01:46:14,130 --> 01:46:17,280 Kavanaugh confirmation is to help Senate Democrats fight 1761 01:46:17,280 --> 01:46:21,690 back. And we also must take back control of the Senate in 2018. 1762 01:46:22,110 --> 01:46:27,540 Will you chip in $3 right now. Or whatever you can afford to 1763 01:46:27,540 --> 01:46:27,990 help us 1764 01:46:28,290 --> 01:46:31,230 writing this copy. It's always the same. 1765 01:46:31,380 --> 01:46:35,850 Will you chip in chip in $3 right now or whatever you can 1766 01:46:35,850 --> 01:46:39,150 afford to help us elect the Senate that will save our court 1767 01:46:39,570 --> 01:46:42,450 imagining a Supreme Court with Brett Kavanaugh on the bench 1768 01:46:42,450 --> 01:46:46,680 makes me sick to my stomach. Throughout that yes, yes. 1769 01:46:47,160 --> 01:46:50,970 Throughout his career Kavanaugh has voted against an opinion 1770 01:46:50,970 --> 01:46:53,970 that upheld the Affordable Care Act and preserved health care 1771 01:46:53,970 --> 01:46:57,840 for millions oppose letting a young immigrant woman get prompt 1772 01:46:57,840 --> 01:47:02,310 access to safe legal abortion claim that the Consumer 1773 01:47:02,310 --> 01:47:06,030 Financial Protection Bureau was unconstitutional tried to strike 1774 01:47:06,030 --> 01:47:09,570 down net neutrality and argued that sitting president should be 1775 01:47:09,570 --> 01:47:12,090 exempt from lawsuits and criminal investigations or 1776 01:47:12,090 --> 01:47:16,590 prosecution. And guess what? Brett Kavanaugh nomination is a 1777 01:47:16,590 --> 01:47:19,920 field day for the right wing elites and big corporations who 1778 01:47:19,920 --> 01:47:23,580 picked him by hand, just like they did with Neil Gorsuch for 1779 01:47:23,580 --> 01:47:28,140 Judge Merrick Garland stolen Supreme Court seat. But no one 1780 01:47:28,140 --> 01:47:30,480 makes it to the supreme court without going through the 1781 01:47:30,480 --> 01:47:34,560 Senate. Not on my watch. I'm prepared to fight with every 1782 01:47:34,560 --> 01:47:38,430 bone in my Cherokee body for a Supreme Court. That's fair to 1783 01:47:38,520 --> 01:47:42,990 say that I'm prepared to fight with every bone in my body for a 1784 01:47:42,990 --> 01:47:46,980 Supreme Court. That's fair, equal and justice for all. Are 1785 01:47:46,980 --> 01:47:54,150 you ready to join in that fight? Ship in $3 right now to help us 1786 01:47:54,150 --> 01:47:57,600 protect the Supreme Court and take back the Senate in 1787 01:47:57,600 --> 01:48:02,070 November. We're not going back. Not now. Not ever. Thanks for 1788 01:48:02,070 --> 01:48:07,530 being a part of this. Elizabeth. Jesus psycho, where whoever's 1789 01:48:07,530 --> 01:48:11,610 writing that is kind of psycho. Yeah. And just give you some 1790 01:48:11,610 --> 01:48:18,180 advice. Your $3 chip in is dumb. That's a $30 ask. 1791 01:48:21,060 --> 01:48:24,420 Well, I wonder they because the reason I wonder is because the 1792 01:48:24,420 --> 01:48:28,740 guy's doing this and it's and it's the what is one group? So 1793 01:48:28,740 --> 01:48:30,750 it's hard to kind of really tell you and tell 1794 01:48:31,380 --> 01:48:34,980 isn't share blue or one of these out of who is they always act? I 1795 01:48:34,980 --> 01:48:37,230 can tell you right now, if you looked at that letter, it's got 1796 01:48:37,230 --> 01:48:38,370 red on it. Oh, yeah, 1797 01:48:38,370 --> 01:48:40,050 of course it does. Yeah. Yeah. 1798 01:48:40,080 --> 01:48:44,790 Not blue. Not orange, green, yellow, red. Yeah. It's always 1799 01:48:44,790 --> 01:48:48,060 got red. It's thematically red is a hat. 1800 01:48:48,180 --> 01:48:50,400 Is that important in the world of newsletters is that make a 1801 01:48:50,400 --> 01:48:51,720 napkin I know of 1802 01:48:51,720 --> 01:48:55,680 food, I can give you a couple of things that I was I've taken 1803 01:48:55,680 --> 01:48:58,800 these seminars when I was younger, and I kind of knew what 1804 01:48:58,920 --> 01:49:02,760 was the things changed and, and newsletters are not newsletters 1805 01:49:02,760 --> 01:49:06,930 so much as direct marketing pieces, which that is that's a 1806 01:49:06,930 --> 01:49:10,260 version of what used to be called direct mail. They study 1807 01:49:10,260 --> 01:49:13,020 the death out of it, and they keep coming up with new little 1808 01:49:13,020 --> 01:49:16,170 gimmicks and and the gimmicks are always and from what I can 1809 01:49:16,170 --> 01:49:18,360 understand, because I was showing all the gimmicks of the 1810 01:49:18,390 --> 01:49:24,330 era gimmicks, the gimmicks that work only work 1811 01:49:24,510 --> 01:49:29,430 isn't closing $1 With your letter, here's $1 1812 01:49:30,240 --> 01:49:33,420 debt Well, that's another game we did kinda worked for a while. 1813 01:49:33,600 --> 01:49:37,110 There was a I can I can when I see when I get mail, real mail 1814 01:49:37,110 --> 01:49:40,110 and some of the things that can I can look at that look at it 1815 01:49:40,110 --> 01:49:43,500 and say, This is a new gimmick. They're trying and see how long 1816 01:49:43,500 --> 01:49:46,680 it goes on. And I believe that the people who put together 1817 01:49:46,680 --> 01:49:49,620 these Democrat letters and they're all done, and I think 1818 01:49:49,620 --> 01:49:55,590 Trump uses the same group, but is grouped as doing these 1819 01:49:55,590 --> 01:49:58,950 letters. For all the different candidates and for all the 1820 01:49:58,950 --> 01:50:01,980 different things it uses very As strong as is rare, I think these 1821 01:50:01,980 --> 01:50:06,210 are all ideas that expired. I think these are bad ideas. I 1822 01:50:06,210 --> 01:50:09,840 mean, there were probably good ideas for a moment that maybe 1823 01:50:09,870 --> 01:50:13,350 lasted maybe a year. And then they died like they all do with 1824 01:50:13,350 --> 01:50:16,950 direct marketing. And I believe that shipping thing which came 1825 01:50:16,950 --> 01:50:20,100 up, I thought maybe we first heard it when we talked about on 1826 01:50:20,100 --> 01:50:23,640 the show all the time in 2016, maybe 2015. 1827 01:50:24,210 --> 01:50:26,460 I want to say it was 2012. 1828 01:50:28,350 --> 01:50:32,340 It could be time. I think so. But if it that's dead, it 1829 01:50:32,340 --> 01:50:35,490 doesn't work. I've every time I hate you, because we the two of 1830 01:50:35,490 --> 01:50:39,870 us ridicule it, and is stupid. At this point. It was probably 1831 01:50:39,870 --> 01:50:42,900 cute. Somebody probably dropped it in as a test because they 1832 01:50:42,900 --> 01:50:46,230 know anything about this type of marketing test, test, test, test 1833 01:50:46,260 --> 01:50:50,460 test. Yeah, so they tested it. And it got a huge response 1834 01:50:50,460 --> 01:50:53,550 because no one heard of it before in these in these 1835 01:50:53,550 --> 01:50:57,870 solicitations. And it was like kind of catchy. Oh yeah, that's 1836 01:50:57,870 --> 01:51:00,540 great. And I remember chip and I'm gonna chip in 1837 01:51:02,160 --> 01:51:05,730 I think it's the chip in that we take the most offensive chip and 1838 01:51:05,730 --> 01:51:09,330 yeah, and I think it caught on for a while while the other 1839 01:51:09,330 --> 01:51:11,760 thing that was it was also tested I believe because he 1840 01:51:11,760 --> 01:51:17,070 wouldn't have this stupid number of $3 It was always chip in $3 I 1841 01:51:17,070 --> 01:51:20,040 think it's dead. Well, I think if this is still working, I'd be 1842 01:51:20,040 --> 01:51:20,790 stunned I 1843 01:51:20,790 --> 01:51:23,820 recall when this first started happening again, I think was 1844 01:51:23,820 --> 01:51:28,260 around 2012 And I think we took issue with the idea of chip in 1845 01:51:28,470 --> 01:51:33,990 which is at the time a lot of podcasters who were using a hat 1846 01:51:33,990 --> 01:51:37,920 you know Tip Jar model we are railed on that saying you are 1847 01:51:38,280 --> 01:51:43,020 purposefully diminishing your work and your product by saying 1848 01:51:43,020 --> 01:51:48,120 chip in just chip in like You're like you're a hobo she'd been 1849 01:51:48,240 --> 01:51:50,820 there's actually a guy on Second Street now he has a plastic 1850 01:51:51,059 --> 01:51:54,899 by the way you by the way the one that really rail against me 1851 01:51:54,899 --> 01:51:55,679 so much now 1852 01:51:55,710 --> 01:51:58,470 there's a guy on Second Street now one of our homeless friends 1853 01:51:58,890 --> 01:52:03,150 and he has a fishing pole a fishing rod with the with the 1854 01:52:03,180 --> 01:52:07,680 with the with the string and a cup. He just sits on the bench 1855 01:52:07,680 --> 01:52:11,610 and people put money in the cup as they walked by. I gotta get a 1856 01:52:11,610 --> 01:52:15,270 picture of this guy for you. Yeah, it's anyway even a 1857 01:52:15,270 --> 01:52:15,840 newsletter. 1858 01:52:15,870 --> 01:52:15,990 It 1859 01:52:15,990 --> 01:52:18,990 diminishes. It diminishes what you're doing. I don't understand 1860 01:52:18,990 --> 01:52:22,860 it. It didn't seem like smart fundraising to me. So I live 1861 01:52:22,860 --> 01:52:25,920 with a fundraiser. You know, we discussed this all the time. 1862 01:52:28,080 --> 01:52:29,850 Yeah, what Elizabeth Warren? What 1863 01:52:29,850 --> 01:52:30,840 does she think of it? What 1864 01:52:30,840 --> 01:52:34,470 Elizabeth Warren needs is that kid from Shriners Hospital Oh, 1865 01:52:34,470 --> 01:52:37,440 that's a break is the moneymaker. Hey, everybody.

Think about the $3 chip in 1869 01:52:49,110 --> 01:52:51,930 I'll get an updated We've discussed it but it's been a 1870 01:52:51,930 --> 01:52:55,020 while. I'll get I'll ask her again. But I know she'll think 1871 01:52:55,020 --> 01:52:55,980 it's dated. 1872 01:52:55,980 --> 01:52:58,650 Yeah. I think that people that get these letters and you're 1873 01:52:58,650 --> 01:53:01,410 getting a lot of them because you do more than I do in regards 1874 01:53:01,410 --> 01:53:07,590 to that. I get them to you see it over and over chip and chip 1875 01:53:07,590 --> 01:53:12,900 in $3 Chip and $3 the public at large and lesser complete morons 1876 01:53:13,230 --> 01:53:16,200 has to see this and see it as a gimmick that What are you trying 1877 01:53:16,200 --> 01:53:19,320 to trick? What is this? Is this some sort of trick? Yeah. What 1878 01:53:19,320 --> 01:53:22,020 are you doing this for? Why is this going on like this forever? 1879 01:53:22,050 --> 01:53:26,610 And I don't know that I get mailings from the Trump family 1880 01:53:26,880 --> 01:53:32,400 and from him and from Tom. But they're all Yeah. Oh, yeah. That 1881 01:53:32,400 --> 01:53:34,530 helped me celebrate the President's birthday from 1882 01:53:34,530 --> 01:53:39,480 Melania. But this starts at 150 bucks Guess what? 1883 01:53:39,480 --> 01:53:41,190 We have $3 chip in Yeah. Oh, 1884 01:53:41,190 --> 01:53:44,970 guess what? It ain't working either. 100 bucks. No way. 1885 01:53:47,010 --> 01:53:48,390 Guys got plenty of money. I 1886 01:53:48,390 --> 01:53:52,050 don't know. Well, but you look at it's the RNC. It's orange. I 1887 01:53:52,050 --> 01:53:53,520 don't want to deal with the RNC 1888 01:53:53,520 --> 01:53:55,560 should do their own own. 1889 01:53:55,590 --> 01:53:58,140 Yeah, I don't like it. Another thing I don't like is I think I 1890 01:53:58,140 --> 01:54:02,910 once gave to Judicial Watch or something. Somewhere I've been 1891 01:54:02,910 --> 01:54:05,190 using a lot of clips from somebody over time and you know, 1892 01:54:05,190 --> 01:54:08,670 and then a pop up shows it value for value like Thanks, man. You 1893 01:54:08,700 --> 01:54:12,150 get some clips from you. Here's a little value. But then I'm on 1894 01:54:12,150 --> 01:54:14,790 the mailing list. I'm on the mailing list for like, you know, 1895 01:54:16,200 --> 01:54:25,320 it's MRC tv.org A Media Research Center Sean Hannity newsletters 1896 01:54:25,560 --> 01:54:28,890 in the worst is I think it was Judicial Watch the envelope 1897 01:54:28,890 --> 01:54:34,200 shows up and it looks like a court summons to Windows you 1898 01:54:34,200 --> 01:54:39,300 know, as like, important court filing document like what now? 1899 01:54:39,300 --> 01:54:42,840 What am I what am I in trouble for now? When you open up and 1900 01:54:42,840 --> 01:54:46,440 it's a pitch letter through it right away? It's a horrible 1901 01:54:46,440 --> 01:54:49,110 trip. Yeah, you're right. I'm an idiot. 1902 01:54:49,470 --> 01:54:52,710 No one I was. But my understanding is I think it 1903 01:54:52,710 --> 01:54:55,440 still applies that there was laws against some of these 1904 01:54:55,530 --> 01:54:56,250 approaches. 1905 01:54:57,570 --> 01:55:01,230 Thank you, Senator Warren. That's all that's 1906 01:55:02,130 --> 01:55:06,060 do nothing. Warren would be the one that do nothing about it. 1907 01:55:06,330 --> 01:55:09,810 But I'm under of the understanding. And I could be 1908 01:55:09,810 --> 01:55:11,970 wrong. And I've not really looked into it. I just get irked 1909 01:55:11,970 --> 01:55:15,150 every time I see one is you cannot send somebody what 1910 01:55:15,150 --> 01:55:16,740 appears to be a check. 1911 01:55:17,700 --> 01:55:20,940 No, I was not I still receive those from time to time. 1912 01:55:21,120 --> 01:55:24,690 Yeah. Yeah. The order of use, it's already the way 1913 01:55:25,710 --> 01:55:29,280 to pay off the credit card, then I get I get all these. Hey, 1914 01:55:29,340 --> 01:55:32,820 seems like you're in debt. Powell. Kids like 1915 01:55:32,970 --> 01:55:37,050 the really the really well done ones. It's like the window with 1916 01:55:37,050 --> 01:55:42,240 the thing inside and on the order of big enough that you can 1917 01:55:42,240 --> 01:55:44,070 see the words pay to the order. 1918 01:55:45,750 --> 01:55:47,010 I don't fall for those 1919 01:55:47,370 --> 01:55:48,300 letters scan. 1920 01:55:48,330 --> 01:55:51,510 However, Judge Cavanaugh, he might want to consider some 1921 01:55:51,510 --> 01:55:54,450 fundraising of his own as the pulling apart of him and his 1922 01:55:54,450 --> 01:55:58,920 family has already started. And I have to say I do have respect 1923 01:55:58,920 --> 01:56:04,380 for anyone willing to go through that process. Apparently, he has 1924 01:56:05,040 --> 01:56:08,370 10s of 1000s of dollars of in credit card debt. He has very 1925 01:56:08,400 --> 01:56:11,520 low net worth about $65,000 1926 01:56:12,120 --> 01:56:14,880 story, by the way know what story. I don't believe it. It 1927 01:56:14,880 --> 01:56:16,770 may not be true for this story. I just don't I think it's 1928 01:56:16,770 --> 01:56:17,310 bullshit. Let 1929 01:56:17,310 --> 01:56:21,930 me tell the story. The credit card debt apparently was from 1930 01:56:21,960 --> 01:56:26,370 buying tickets to the Washington Nationals season tickets for him 1931 01:56:26,370 --> 01:56:27,270 and his buddies. 1932 01:56:28,620 --> 01:56:32,250 And the reason I don't believe this story is because it's got 1933 01:56:32,250 --> 01:56:35,400 all the elements of a hoax story. Because for one thing, 1934 01:56:35,400 --> 01:56:39,600 the Washington Nationals are huge losers. Yeah. And they're 1935 01:56:39,600 --> 01:56:43,410 like, really super powerfully fantastic team that can't win 1936 01:56:43,410 --> 01:56:47,640 playoff games. And so they so it's something you can laugh 1937 01:56:47,640 --> 01:56:50,730 about under y'all. This guy's an idiot for wanting to go to those 1938 01:56:50,730 --> 01:56:56,130 games. It just has hoax written all over it. I'm not saying he 1939 01:56:56,130 --> 01:56:59,460 never bought a Washington Nationals ticket in his life. 1940 01:56:59,460 --> 01:57:03,240 He's in Washington, DC. But what I'm saying is I don't believe he 1941 01:57:03,240 --> 01:57:07,290 went into great deep credit card debt because he's buying tickets 1942 01:57:07,290 --> 01:57:08,220 for everybody. So 1943 01:57:08,220 --> 01:57:12,180 the headlines are Kavanaugh accumulated 1000s in debt 1944 01:57:12,180 --> 01:57:16,320 Kavanaugh piled on credit card debt. Cavanaugh had massive 1945 01:57:16,320 --> 01:57:21,060 credit card debt. Is that the level that we're at now for 1946 01:57:21,090 --> 01:57:25,020 vetting people? Yeah, we're Snopes. We're Snopes. 1947 01:57:25,170 --> 01:57:27,930 Probably a lot of lot of Washington Post articles in 1948 01:57:27,930 --> 01:57:28,200 there. 1949 01:57:28,920 --> 01:57:31,560 So yeah, of course this Washington Washington Post broke 1950 01:57:31,560 --> 01:57:32,460 it. Are you kidding me? 1951 01:57:32,880 --> 01:57:35,400 Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's like the golden just like the golden 1952 01:57:35,400 --> 01:57:38,160 toilet. They broke story. Washington Post I believe was 1953 01:57:38,160 --> 01:57:38,940 Washington Post. 1954 01:57:38,940 --> 01:57:42,900 While there was some fun things being said, from the pundits on 1955 01:57:42,900 --> 01:57:47,640 TV a rare opportunity to play something idiotic from Fox. Not 1956 01:57:47,640 --> 01:57:50,520 that they don't have tons of idiotic stuff to say is just as 1957 01:57:50,520 --> 01:57:54,990 usually not funny. At least not to me. This was pretty good. 1958 01:57:54,990 --> 01:57:59,790 Shep Smith on the game. Shep Smith is still the the remaining 1959 01:57:59,790 --> 01:58:02,160 proof that the Democrats run Fox News 1960 01:58:02,190 --> 01:58:06,000 back in 2009. Judge Cavanaugh wrote that sitting presidents 1961 01:58:06,030 --> 01:58:08,460 should be protected from lawsuits and criminal 1962 01:58:08,460 --> 01:58:12,810 investigations until they're out of office, quoting here, like 1963 01:58:12,810 --> 01:58:15,570 civil suits, criminal investigations take the 1964 01:58:15,570 --> 01:58:19,050 President's focus away from his or her responsibilities to the 1965 01:58:19,050 --> 01:58:22,650 people. And a president who is concerned about an ongoing 1966 01:58:22,650 --> 01:58:26,340 criminal investigation is almost inevitably going to do a worse 1967 01:58:26,340 --> 01:58:30,420 job as president. I think at the time, then that was on the heels 1968 01:58:30,420 --> 01:58:33,270 of all of the Clinton investigations, and judge 1969 01:58:33,270 --> 01:58:37,080 Cavanaugh had been very closely involved with the writing of the 1970 01:58:37,080 --> 01:58:41,340 ken Starr report, the more salacious parts. Some Democrats 1971 01:58:41,340 --> 01:58:45,210 say all of that shows President Trump is basically choosing 1972 01:58:45,210 --> 01:58:49,320 somebody who would have his back should an investigation become 1973 01:58:49,620 --> 01:58:53,400 well, the top priority, but in that same piece, Judge Cavanaugh 1974 01:58:53,400 --> 01:58:56,550 also wrote this. If the President does something 1975 01:58:56,760 --> 01:59:02,730 dastardly. The impeachment process is available. dastardly 1976 01:59:03,090 --> 01:59:03,870 Gretton. So 1977 01:59:03,870 --> 01:59:06,960 that was my ISO dastardly. No, I thought that would be a great no 1978 01:59:06,960 --> 01:59:12,540 show. So it doesn't cut it by the foamer. But so there's ship 1979 01:59:12,630 --> 01:59:13,710 ship ship. 1980 01:59:14,220 --> 01:59:19,320 Well, let's talk about this for a second. This is an example of 1981 01:59:19,530 --> 01:59:22,050 a human you can look at this from two perspectives. One, this 1982 01:59:22,050 --> 01:59:25,620 guy was involved in a whitewater investigation and came up with 1983 01:59:25,620 --> 01:59:29,430 the decision that this sort of thing shouldn't go on while the 1984 01:59:29,430 --> 01:59:31,890 guys precedent should go on afterwards, especially small 1985 01:59:31,890 --> 01:59:35,760 little diddly suits, little lawsuits over this and that you 1986 01:59:35,760 --> 01:59:38,850 can't have that right. President needs to be buffered from that 1987 01:59:38,850 --> 01:59:41,490 and he can get easily not going to be there forever saying do 1988 01:59:41,490 --> 01:59:44,190 something after he's out there because he saw what was 1989 01:59:44,190 --> 01:59:48,360 happening to Clinton, you know, is wasn't helping the presidency 1990 01:59:48,360 --> 01:59:49,980 at all. And he was a witness to 1991 01:59:49,980 --> 01:59:52,980 it because he was aware of it, but just You're right. So again, 1992 01:59:52,980 --> 01:59:56,580 we have to look at this from multiple dimensions. He actually 1993 01:59:56,580 --> 01:59:59,100 was trying to help a Democratic president 1994 02:00:00,570 --> 02:00:03,420 At the time, though he was on the STARR investigation site he 1995 02:00:03,420 --> 02:00:08,310 was but he wrote in defense, that this should not happen. 1996 02:00:08,790 --> 02:00:12,420 Right? Yeah. So that would be pro Democratic President 1997 02:00:12,420 --> 02:00:12,900 Clinton? 1998 02:00:13,770 --> 02:00:15,720 I would say yes. Okay. All right. 1999 02:00:16,170 --> 02:00:17,670 That this is what makes it 2000 02:00:17,670 --> 02:00:19,530 true. There was water under the bridge, because there's nothing 2001 02:00:19,530 --> 02:00:21,990 you could do about it at the time, but he saw witnessed it 2002 02:00:21,990 --> 02:00:25,020 because he was part of the whole thing. And he saw it was not, it 2003 02:00:25,020 --> 02:00:28,560 wasn't helping the country. If they mean, it's eventually, 2004 02:00:28,740 --> 02:00:31,650 eventually, like they like he said there was the impeachment 2005 02:00:31,650 --> 02:00:34,710 process that you could always fall back on. And you could do 2006 02:00:34,710 --> 02:00:35,550 that with anybody. 2007 02:00:35,580 --> 02:00:38,520 Yeah. You don't have to leave when you're impeached. It's just 2008 02:00:38,520 --> 02:00:42,000 like a vote of no confidence. Like, we hate you. Okay. 2009 02:00:43,710 --> 02:00:45,090 You have to leave when you're impeached? 2010 02:00:45,240 --> 02:00:47,370 That's a good question. Because no one's ever been fully 2011 02:00:47,370 --> 02:00:49,680 impeached. You always get it always goes through. Connie 2012 02:00:49,680 --> 02:00:52,200 never gets it never gets confirmed by the Senate, 2013 02:00:52,320 --> 02:00:55,380 as far as I'm concerned. Yeah, exactly. The Senate you still 2014 02:00:55,380 --> 02:00:59,220 have to go through the process of having the majority of the 2015 02:00:59,220 --> 02:01:01,980 Senate and the administration and the Vice President everybody 2016 02:01:01,980 --> 02:01:07,950 has to say get out. Yeah, no, no, you still you still go back 2017 02:01:07,950 --> 02:01:10,290 to the Constitution. The impeachment is just it's just a 2018 02:01:10,290 --> 02:01:12,870 political thing. As far as I know. It's just like we don't 2019 02:01:12,870 --> 02:01:14,700 like you. And then once you 2020 02:01:14,700 --> 02:01:16,530 look it up. Ah, 2021 02:01:16,560 --> 02:01:17,820 I always have to do this 2022 02:01:21,510 --> 02:01:24,660 okay, little fast little phone there. You can look it up real 2023 02:01:24,660 --> 02:01:25,050 quick. 2024 02:01:25,440 --> 02:01:29,670 You're gonna be like that impeachment process whereby a 2025 02:01:29,670 --> 02:01:32,670 legislative body formerly levels charges against the high 2026 02:01:32,670 --> 02:01:36,180 official of government. Let me see us impeachment. A kick the 2027 02:01:36,180 --> 02:01:41,490 United States should Okay. process at the federal level, 2028 02:01:41,490 --> 02:01:43,890 the impeachment process is two step procedure. Here we go. The 2029 02:01:43,890 --> 02:01:46,530 House of Representatives must first pass by simple majority of 2030 02:01:46,530 --> 02:01:51,150 those President voting articles of impeachment, which constitute 2031 02:01:51,150 --> 02:01:54,120 the formal allegation or allegations upon passes, the 2032 02:01:54,120 --> 02:01:59,520 defendant has been impeached. Next, the Senate tries the 2033 02:01:59,520 --> 02:02:02,550 accused. In the case of the impeachment of a president, the 2034 02:02:02,550 --> 02:02:05,010 Chief Justice of the United States presides over the 2035 02:02:05,010 --> 02:02:07,410 hearings for the impeachment of any other official constitution 2036 02:02:07,410 --> 02:02:12,060 is on silent and who shall preside suggesting this role 2037 02:02:12,060 --> 02:02:14,700 falls to the Senate's usual presiding officer, which would 2038 02:02:14,700 --> 02:02:19,560 be the vice president who presides over the Senate to 2039 02:02:19,560 --> 02:02:24,480 convict an accused, the concurrence of two thirds of the 2040 02:02:24,480 --> 02:02:28,770 members present is required. That'll never happen. No 2041 02:02:29,010 --> 02:02:32,220 conviction removes the defendant from office, following 2042 02:02:32,220 --> 02:02:35,250 conviction, the Senate may vote to further punish the individual 2043 02:02:35,250 --> 02:02:38,670 barring him or her from holding office in the future, etc. Says 2044 02:02:38,670 --> 02:02:42,420 banking so exactly the impeachment process in less 2045 02:02:42,600 --> 02:02:46,680 whatever he did or does is so egregious that everybody's on 2046 02:02:46,680 --> 02:02:51,060 board is to just is unlikely to happen. But it's in there. 2047 02:02:51,060 --> 02:02:54,120 Luckily, it's in there. So it's possible if need be. 2048 02:02:55,950 --> 02:03:01,680 Well, if the guy let's imagine a president who is a unstoppable, 2049 02:03:02,820 --> 02:03:03,750 flasher. 2050 02:03:05,400 --> 02:03:07,560 And so everywhere he goes and everything he does, he's 2051 02:03:07,560 --> 02:03:10,320 dropping his pants and then doing a jig or something, 2052 02:03:10,769 --> 02:03:13,439 fall under the mental capacity and they can get him out that 2053 02:03:13,439 --> 02:03:13,769 well 2054 02:03:13,770 --> 02:03:15,930 that you could probably get him away get we'll get him up with 2055 02:03:15,930 --> 02:03:19,560 20 people. Well, let's say that his is, let's say that the 2056 02:03:19,560 --> 02:03:23,010 entire cabinet, because it has to be the cabinet are a bunch of 2057 02:03:23,010 --> 02:03:27,360 perverse and they thought this is fabulous. So they couldn't 2058 02:03:27,360 --> 02:03:29,610 get rid of him so they could impeach him. I think under those 2059 02:03:29,610 --> 02:03:32,850 circumstances, especially if he went naked in front of the 2060 02:03:33,540 --> 02:03:33,930 Senate, 2061 02:03:34,200 --> 02:03:36,270 you don't have to do the impeachment process. You can 2062 02:03:36,270 --> 02:03:40,860 just go through what is it? What's in Article Two? You just 2063 02:03:40,860 --> 02:03:45,270 have to get the the three three core three quarters majority and 2064 02:03:45,270 --> 02:03:47,940 the Vice President and the cabinet and they can also the 2065 02:03:47,940 --> 02:03:50,670 cabinet. I just said I just preface it the cabinet are a 2066 02:03:50,670 --> 02:03:52,470 bunch of perverts that will not do 2067 02:03:52,530 --> 02:03:55,050 Oh, I'm sorry. Okay. Right. So then you have to go through 2068 02:03:55,050 --> 02:03:55,950 impeachment? Yes. 2069 02:03:56,429 --> 02:03:58,949 So they go through impeachment. He's naked the whole time 2070 02:04:00,149 --> 02:04:06,359 around. And this is going over well. So then he goes to Sean 2071 02:04:06,360 --> 02:04:10,290 Hannity. We're live now with the President. Mr. President, 2072 02:04:10,710 --> 02:04:14,550 and so that's the only circumstance they're gonna get 2073 02:04:14,550 --> 02:04:16,650 two thirds majority in the Senate. 2074 02:04:17,640 --> 02:04:23,400 Right. Pass pass it on to Maxine. So she knows. Well, 2075 02:04:23,430 --> 02:04:25,860 let's just talking about the constitution. We have JEFFREY 2076 02:04:25,860 --> 02:04:30,330 TOOBIN, who I believe is a constitutional scholar. I don't 2077 02:04:30,360 --> 02:04:35,400 think so. He presents himself that way. And he's a writer, you 2078 02:04:35,400 --> 02:04:39,000 know, how people always like to interpret the Constitution by 2079 02:04:39,000 --> 02:04:43,740 saying well, back then, you know, they never envisioned AR 2080 02:04:43,740 --> 02:04:49,320 fifteens. Now, they never envision the internet now. No 2081 02:04:49,320 --> 02:04:54,780 way that JEFFREY TOOBIN when it comes to the Supreme Court, he's 2082 02:04:54,780 --> 02:04:56,490 got his own version of this. 2083 02:04:56,550 --> 02:04:59,970 This isn't like last year's fight. This is the fight of 2084 02:05:00,000 --> 02:05:02,910 Basically the future of the Supreme Court for the next 40 2085 02:05:02,910 --> 02:05:06,750 years. For the next 40 years, possibly, absolutely. I mean, 2086 02:05:06,870 --> 02:05:07,860 these are young 2087 02:05:08,940 --> 02:05:12,450 people want how old how old, which is you're gonna throw that 2088 02:05:12,450 --> 02:05:14,940 bullcrap out. How old is this guy? 2089 02:05:15,960 --> 02:05:18,570 Well, this is a tube and this is a lead into tubing. No, I'm 2090 02:05:18,570 --> 02:05:22,170 talking about how old is the nominee? Oh, 48. 2091 02:05:22,170 --> 02:05:24,030 I believe. I think he's 50. 2092 02:05:24,510 --> 02:05:26,280 Okay. Well, I 2093 02:05:26,280 --> 02:05:29,490 don't know. I mean, we have to look him up cheese. I mean, we 2094 02:05:29,490 --> 02:05:31,590 can't just keep throwing stuff on unless we know 2095 02:05:31,620 --> 02:05:38,280 well that stop asking questions without knowing the answer. Why 2096 02:05:38,280 --> 02:05:39,030 are we lazy 2097 02:05:39,030 --> 02:05:39,510 today? 2098 02:05:39,540 --> 02:05:42,510 We're not lazy. It's just we don't have answers. That's all 2099 02:05:42,510 --> 02:05:47,880 it needs. How do you spell the Gators from 1965? He's 5252. So 2100 02:05:47,880 --> 02:05:50,100 then, so you're telling me he's going to be on the Supreme 2101 02:05:50,100 --> 02:05:55,440 Court? When he's 92 years old? You're telling me to bend? 2102 02:05:55,470 --> 02:05:57,150 Well, no, that's not Toobin. 2103 02:05:57,720 --> 02:06:00,150 To me. I don't care of his turban or the other guy. What is 2104 02:06:00,150 --> 02:06:03,720 this 40 year meme. This was the Democrats. 2105 02:06:05,310 --> 02:06:07,140 You'll like to even better 2106 02:06:07,170 --> 02:06:11,400 and these are young Durance people, you know, when the 2107 02:06:11,400 --> 02:06:13,860 Constitution was written in the 70s. And in the late 18th 2108 02:06:13,860 --> 02:06:18,870 century, people were expected to die in their 50s. The framers 2109 02:06:18,870 --> 02:06:23,100 never contemplated that these terms would regularly go to 30 2110 02:06:23,100 --> 02:06:25,740 plus years as they do now. Oh, really. 2111 02:06:25,890 --> 02:06:31,380 So the framers, the founding fathers of our nation, had no 2112 02:06:31,380 --> 02:06:35,490 idea, not from historical perspective or vision that 2113 02:06:35,490 --> 02:06:39,180 people would live longer in the future. That's basically what 2114 02:06:39,180 --> 02:06:41,250 he's saying, which I think is an insult. 2115 02:06:41,730 --> 02:06:44,130 Well, it's not only an insult, but let's say take a look at a 2116 02:06:44,130 --> 02:06:48,780 couple of different people. Just just randomly go with one of my 2117 02:06:48,780 --> 02:06:55,710 brother and Franklin. Yes. How old was he when he died? It 2118 02:06:55,710 --> 02:07:03,270 doesn't say immediately in office to do was born in 1706. 2119 02:07:03,990 --> 02:07:10,320 And he died in 1790. So he was at what 84. So Ben Franklin was 2120 02:07:10,350 --> 02:07:13,920 84 when he died. And I think you can take a lot of these guys and 2121 02:07:13,920 --> 02:07:17,730 find that many of them lived in their 80s. And probably in their 2122 02:07:17,730 --> 02:07:19,470 90s. This is bullcrap. 2123 02:07:19,650 --> 02:07:23,160 It's interesting when when I told my mom, I was divorcing my 2124 02:07:23,160 --> 02:07:26,490 first wife. She said her response was kind of epic. He 2125 02:07:26,490 --> 02:07:31,050 says, Well, you know, Adam, when they made up that till death do 2126 02:07:31,050 --> 02:07:35,850 us part crap. People died at 40. So I thought it was an 2127 02:07:35,850 --> 02:07:41,160 interesting interpretation. But yeah, Ben Franklin clearly was 2128 02:07:41,160 --> 02:07:45,420 around. Now it's bullshit. But but that that's the that's the 2129 02:07:45,420 --> 02:07:50,370 level of information people are getting. Like, well, you know, 2130 02:07:50,370 --> 02:07:52,830 this, maybe we should get rid of the Supreme Court. Maybe that's 2131 02:07:52,830 --> 02:07:56,760 what he's what isn't coming next for him. All I know is that 2132 02:07:56,760 --> 02:08:01,230 people are entirely under informed, misinformed. And 2133 02:08:01,440 --> 02:08:05,820 virtue signal in many different ways. The adult under 40 2134 02:08:05,820 --> 02:08:09,750 population is despicable. Now, this is man on the street, which 2135 02:08:09,750 --> 02:08:15,180 is easy to edit. We always mock the man on the street interviews 2136 02:08:15,180 --> 02:08:18,480 because you can just pull out of the way you want. This was done 2137 02:08:18,480 --> 02:08:24,570 by campus reform. And they went on the streets, I think was a 2138 02:08:24,570 --> 02:08:28,380 University College University in New York. And they asked people 2139 02:08:28,410 --> 02:08:32,160 about President Trump's pick for the Supreme Court before he had 2140 02:08:32,160 --> 02:08:37,020 picked it. Which is which, so you're not how it works. I mean, 2141 02:08:37,020 --> 02:08:39,930 Jimmy Kimmel does this only Kimmel didn't do this one, which 2142 02:08:39,930 --> 02:08:46,830 makes it that much better. So Kennedy had announced that he 2143 02:08:46,830 --> 02:08:50,850 was retiring. Trump says, I'm going to pick somebody and these 2144 02:08:50,850 --> 02:08:54,030 guys go out from campus reform and go ask the millennials 2145 02:08:54,060 --> 02:08:58,710 adults under 40 What do you think of the President's new pic 2146 02:08:58,740 --> 02:09:00,900 thing? The big thing has been in the news today Supreme Court 2147 02:09:00,930 --> 02:09:04,680 Justice Kennedy stepping down so there's a vacancy all week 2148 02:09:04,680 --> 02:09:06,660 people were worried about who was going to be this week he 2149 02:09:06,660 --> 02:09:09,900 made his announcement what's your reaction to the justice 2150 02:09:09,900 --> 02:09:10,680 that he nominated that 2151 02:09:11,280 --> 02:09:14,940 I'm honestly not surprised by his choice but that just worse 2152 02:09:14,940 --> 02:09:19,530 for us? I just saw the pic and I was like, like it's almost at a 2153 02:09:19,530 --> 02:09:22,080 point where you kind of expect that some it's not going to be 2154 02:09:22,080 --> 02:09:23,070 what you want. He's 2155 02:09:23,070 --> 02:09:28,050 quite extreme in his views. And I don't know if it would make 2156 02:09:28,050 --> 02:09:29,400 the Supreme Court very even 2157 02:09:29,429 --> 02:09:34,169 I see it all over the news that like he's he's like, racist and 2158 02:09:34,169 --> 02:09:34,529 shit. 2159 02:09:34,590 --> 02:09:37,890 This new like nominee is very racist, I think is starting a 2160 02:09:37,890 --> 02:09:42,870 new wave. Something something very negative, and I'm really 2161 02:09:42,870 --> 02:09:44,760 scared about what happened in the future and my choices he'll 2162 02:09:44,760 --> 02:09:45,120 make. 2163 02:09:45,270 --> 02:09:47,760 So what reaction have you seen on social media today after the 2164 02:09:47,760 --> 02:09:48,210 news? 2165 02:09:48,270 --> 02:09:50,460 Oh, outrage as it shouldn't be. 2166 02:09:50,759 --> 02:09:52,979 If this is just a reoccurring thing, he keeps doing this with 2167 02:09:53,009 --> 02:09:55,649 different positions and just doing whatever he wants abusing 2168 02:09:55,649 --> 02:09:56,249 his power. 2169 02:09:57,390 --> 02:09:58,980 Do you feel like his pick is an abuse of power 2170 02:09:59,700 --> 02:10:02,820 base Yeah, his entire cabinet and everyone who's chosen has 2171 02:10:02,820 --> 02:10:06,420 been the white supremacist Legion of doom. And it's 2172 02:10:06,420 --> 02:10:08,310 dangerous. Everyone who looks like me. 2173 02:10:09,060 --> 02:10:11,100 You feel like this Supreme Court nominee today kind of falls in 2174 02:10:11,100 --> 02:10:13,740 that same line. They should all wear white 2175 02:10:13,740 --> 02:10:18,090 hoods and burn crosses at the Capitol because that's exactly. 2176 02:10:18,300 --> 02:10:20,400 That's exactly the move. That's what they're going for 2177 02:10:20,430 --> 02:10:23,730 the fact that you would put someone up there that is so 2178 02:10:23,730 --> 02:10:27,570 racist is not practicing the quality that we need to see. 2179 02:10:28,320 --> 02:10:32,280 Again, it's insulting, and it's, he's not going to last. I mean, 2180 02:10:32,280 --> 02:10:32,400 I'm 2181 02:10:32,400 --> 02:10:33,270 not a fan of the pic. 2182 02:10:33,720 --> 02:10:34,680 I'm really not 2183 02:10:34,710 --> 02:10:37,470 I did speak to my dad a couple days ago, I didn't know he he 2184 02:10:37,470 --> 02:10:40,620 was not a huge fan of the decision that he made with your 2185 02:10:40,620 --> 02:10:43,320 message President Trump on what qualities you would want a 2186 02:10:43,320 --> 02:10:46,170 Supreme Court justice to have? Black, 2187 02:10:46,650 --> 02:10:48,090 a black woman? 2188 02:10:48,360 --> 02:10:50,910 Is it wrong, though, to to suggest someone be picked just 2189 02:10:50,910 --> 02:10:51,810 on the color of their skin, though? 2190 02:10:51,870 --> 02:10:55,440 I mean, but I said black woman for a reason. Black women were 2191 02:10:55,440 --> 02:10:58,920 the only ones who really turned out in full, full full majority 2192 02:10:59,220 --> 02:11:01,170 to not vote for President Trump. 2193 02:11:01,410 --> 02:11:05,550 And it just went on and on and on. So the 2194 02:11:06,630 --> 02:11:11,430 I mean, if you're confronted with this microphone, the thing 2195 02:11:11,430 --> 02:11:13,920 you first thing you say is, I don't know who the pick is. 2196 02:11:14,040 --> 02:11:17,880 Because you don't. Because it wasn't picked at the time. I 2197 02:11:17,880 --> 02:11:21,180 mean, this this inability for this group of people, and it's 2198 02:11:21,180 --> 02:11:24,240 not all of them, but many of them to admit that they don't 2199 02:11:24,240 --> 02:11:28,980 know something. Yes. This is the Well, I think, I think is that 2200 02:11:28,980 --> 02:11:31,200 what do you think is gonna happen? What is gonna be? Oh, I 2201 02:11:31,200 --> 02:11:33,930 think this I think that's why I kept insisting for example, when 2202 02:11:33,930 --> 02:11:37,080 we don't quite know something, we have to look it up on the 2203 02:11:37,080 --> 02:11:41,880 spot and write you on? Because we're not of that ilk was well, 2204 02:11:41,880 --> 02:11:44,940 I don't know. So I'm gonna make it up, which is what these guys 2205 02:11:44,940 --> 02:11:48,930 are doing. Now that you brought that clip up of the stupidity, I 2206 02:11:48,930 --> 02:11:53,190 have to bring a clip in from 2007. Okay, and the reason I put 2207 02:11:53,190 --> 02:11:55,260 in this clip, and it's because there's a clip I call for every 2208 02:11:55,260 --> 02:11:59,790 once awhile, you can never find it. And this is the 2007 clip, 2209 02:11:59,790 --> 02:12:03,480 just a reminder of the education system. This is the Miss Teen 2210 02:12:03,480 --> 02:12:09,030 USA, Miss South Carolina answer to a stupid question about why 2211 02:12:09,090 --> 02:12:12,990 can't people, Americans how come Americans cannot find the United 2212 02:12:12,990 --> 02:12:13,980 States on a map? 2213 02:12:14,040 --> 02:12:17,910 Recent polls have shown a fifth of Americans can't locate the US 2214 02:12:17,910 --> 02:12:20,700 on a world map. Why do you think this is? 2215 02:12:22,740 --> 02:12:28,080 I personally believe that us Americans are unable to do so. 2216 02:12:28,470 --> 02:12:33,930 Because sama people out there and our nation don't have 2217 02:12:33,930 --> 02:12:38,400 bounce. And I believe that our education like such as South 2218 02:12:38,400 --> 02:12:43,980 Africa and the Iraq everywhere, like such as and I believe that 2219 02:12:43,980 --> 02:12:48,780 they should. Our education over here in the US should help the 2220 02:12:48,780 --> 02:12:53,580 US I should help South Africa. It should help their Asian 2221 02:12:53,580 --> 02:12:58,650 countries. So we will be able to build up our future. Thank you 2222 02:12:58,650 --> 02:13:00,150 very much, South Carolina. 2223 02:13:03,210 --> 02:13:05,910 Man, that was back when it was good. 2224 02:13:09,450 --> 02:13:10,320 Classic, 2225 02:13:10,710 --> 02:13:12,510 you're so right.

I 2283 02:17:09,990 --> 02:17:12,540 served over two decades on active duty service in the 2284 02:17:12,540 --> 02:17:15,750 military retired nearly a year ago. To say it has been a 2285 02:17:15,750 --> 02:17:19,620 challenge to find employment is an understatement. I cannot 2286 02:17:19,620 --> 02:17:23,190 begin to tell you how difficult it has been to transition from 2287 02:17:23,190 --> 02:17:26,130 the military to the civilian job market and I believe I have a 2288 02:17:26,130 --> 02:17:29,460 better footing than many fellow veterans as I retired from 2289 02:17:29,460 --> 02:17:32,310 active duty service with over two decades of experience in my 2290 02:17:32,310 --> 02:17:35,490 field and completed two college degrees.

These are important by the way this is 2324 02:19:44,910 --> 02:19:48,240 very important to what we do. And I appreciate people self 2325 02:19:48,240 --> 02:19:50,550 organizing into doing this. 2326 02:19:50,550 --> 02:19:53,040 They do need a little about parents some coaching on some 2327 02:19:53,040 --> 02:19:55,800 things that they do wrong, but well that's that's why Mimi's 2328 02:19:55,800 --> 02:19:59,280 gonna do it. Yeah, apparently she is. Now one of the things 2329 02:19:59,280 --> 02:20:03,150 that And we should note is that the reason you want these 2330 02:20:03,150 --> 02:20:08,130 meetups is because you get to meet like minded people who will 2331 02:20:08,130 --> 02:20:13,590 not suck your your karma out of you just stupid arguments about 2332 02:20:13,590 --> 02:20:17,010 stuff that is not worth arguing about. Right? I've gotten more 2333 02:20:17,010 --> 02:20:19,470 comments when I gone through a number of these, obviously, I've 2334 02:20:20,070 --> 02:20:23,040 had a few of them, you know, centered around me. And the 2335 02:20:23,040 --> 02:20:26,100 thing I noticed that everybody likes, they like each other to 2336 02:20:26,100 --> 02:20:29,640 do on first glance. So when they meet, they have good 2337 02:20:29,640 --> 02:20:32,490 conversations, and they all feel very comfortable. Because 2338 02:20:32,490 --> 02:20:35,040 there's not you know, we're not dealing with just the general 2339 02:20:35,040 --> 02:20:35,700 population. 2340 02:20:35,939 --> 02:20:39,059 Truly, it truly is. I hate to say it, it truly is a safe 2341 02:20:39,059 --> 02:20:44,099 space. It is. It's a safe space, and what I'm what always amazes 2342 02:20:44,099 --> 02:20:49,619 me with the meetups is and I think this may be universal. You 2343 02:20:49,619 --> 02:20:52,139 look at someone's like, Ha, I never thought that kind of 2344 02:20:52,139 --> 02:20:56,069 person would be a no agenda listener. Yeah, seriously. And 2345 02:20:56,069 --> 02:21:00,059 then you're like, oh, yeah, very like minded Americans may be in 2346 02:21:00,059 --> 02:21:02,489 general are a lot like that, although I find a lot of that in 2347 02:21:02,489 --> 02:21:07,109 Europe to very open, but you know, maybe just not able to 2348 02:21:07,109 --> 02:21:11,489 discuss things openly in your work or place or your family or 2349 02:21:12,509 --> 02:21:15,629 it's very, it's a lot of fun to come to one of these. And as 2350 02:21:15,629 --> 02:21:19,199 we've learned from the last connections book, it really 2351 02:21:19,199 --> 02:21:22,139 helps against depression and all kinds of other psychological 2352 02:21:22,139 --> 02:21:25,979 disorders, you need to meet people. And I think today's 2353 02:21:26,009 --> 02:21:30,269 environment, no matter where you stand with any opinion, you're 2354 02:21:30,269 --> 02:21:32,999 afraid to give it in a group do you don't know. But if I say 2355 02:21:32,999 --> 02:21:35,879 this, and someone might ridicule me, or get tossed out or 2356 02:21:35,880 --> 02:21:39,630 whatever happens, whatever happens, you don't have this 2357 02:21:39,630 --> 02:21:44,310 ridicule. There's nobody there that doesn't have the, you know, 2358 02:21:44,910 --> 02:21:48,450 it's just a great place where even in the England where we 2359 02:21:48,450 --> 02:21:53,220 had, you know, another variety huge variety of people that that 2360 02:21:53,220 --> 02:21:59,010 liked, that were show mavens. It was just, it was just 2361 02:21:59,010 --> 02:22:01,530 fascinating to run into all these guys, because some of you, 2362 02:22:01,770 --> 02:22:03,900 you're right, you'd look at and say, Wow, this guy's probably 2363 02:22:03,900 --> 02:22:07,740 hates this show. It looks of him. But no, not true. 2364 02:22:08,699 --> 02:22:11,969 Not true at all, that it's great fun. And I'm looking forward to 2365 02:22:11,969 --> 02:22:12,809 the Austin one. 2366 02:22:13,439 --> 02:22:17,699 Although I will say this. There's an inner me, we do have 2367 02:22:17,699 --> 02:22:19,589 all these Eagle Scouts and marines and all these different 2368 02:22:19,589 --> 02:22:23,879 guys and with a good variety of women. There is an inordinate 2369 02:22:23,939 --> 02:22:26,129 basket basket binders of women we have 2370 02:22:26,970 --> 02:22:29,970 there's an inordinate number of dudes named Ben. 2371 02:22:30,060 --> 02:22:31,860 Yes. And dudettes. 2372 02:22:33,000 --> 02:22:37,830 Yeah, and dudettes. But it's just like a little, I would say 2373 02:22:37,830 --> 02:22:42,060 at least 40% of the audience is white at these meetups. It 2374 02:22:42,480 --> 02:22:44,310 doesn't have to be able to meet up. That's because 2375 02:22:44,310 --> 02:22:47,190 we respect them because we we have worked in corporate 2376 02:22:47,190 --> 02:22:50,430 environments. We respect dudes named Ben, we know they actually 2377 02:22:50,430 --> 02:22:53,760 run the world we have hams like to think they're going to save 2378 02:22:53,760 --> 02:22:56,280 the world when the Armageddon hits. But you know, it's going 2379 02:22:56,280 --> 02:22:59,550 to be the dudes named Ben who, coincidentally off in our hands 2380 02:22:59,550 --> 02:23:03,510 as well. But they keep the world running and they're always 2381 02:23:03,510 --> 02:23:08,550 disrespected and seen as lowly douchebags who just smell bad. 2382 02:23:08,880 --> 02:23:11,430 That's like being a writer in Hollywood, the writers always 2383 02:23:11,430 --> 02:23:13,080 pushed aside that idea. 2384 02:23:13,110 --> 02:23:16,050 Yeah.

He was going to work for a competitor, a Chinese 2456 02:27:43,200 --> 02:27:46,410 company called Xiao Peng motors, Apple escorted him out of the 2457 02:27:46,410 --> 02:27:49,320 building. And the next day, Apple learned that Jiang had 2458 02:27:49,320 --> 02:27:52,860 already taken reams of data documents and equipment and the 2459 02:27:52,860 --> 02:27:53,190 cats 2460 02:27:53,190 --> 02:27:56,310 out of the bag. I mean, at some point, Apple realizes that 2461 02:27:56,310 --> 02:27:58,920 they're under damage control mode. Now, the FBI 2462 02:27:58,920 --> 02:28:03,240 did get involved and searched Jane's house on June 27 10 days 2463 02:28:03,240 --> 02:28:06,600 later, he bought that one ticket for a same day flight to China. 2464 02:28:07,080 --> 02:28:10,110 HARP says that when a person is under investigation, buying an 2465 02:28:10,110 --> 02:28:12,060 international ticket is a red flag. 2466 02:28:12,090 --> 02:28:15,360 And if they see that you've bought an immediate ticket to 2467 02:28:15,360 --> 02:28:18,450 hightail it out of the country. Chances are they're gonna say 2468 02:28:18,450 --> 02:28:20,340 hello to you at the gate when you get there. 2469 02:28:21,029 --> 02:28:24,029 Now Jiang was arrested and charged with one count of 2470 02:28:24,029 --> 02:28:27,149 stealing trade secrets. And today a federal judge set his 2471 02:28:27,149 --> 02:28:31,439 bail at $300,000 and ordered him to turn over his passport. 2472 02:28:31,890 --> 02:28:34,620 Wow. So 2473 02:28:35,220 --> 02:28:38,970 you didn't get that story there. Now, this is another this is a 2474 02:28:39,060 --> 02:28:41,040 Chinese espionage story. 2475 02:28:41,340 --> 02:28:48,210 I read a story about Apple in China, that there was something 2476 02:28:48,210 --> 02:28:51,780 wrong with I guess the most here's what happened. The most 2477 02:28:51,780 --> 02:28:55,260 recent iOS update someone of course, saw stuff and they 2478 02:28:55,260 --> 02:28:58,200 figured out what had been updated. And apparently Apple 2479 02:28:58,200 --> 02:29:02,970 had coded something in in a Chinese version of the iOS or 2480 02:29:02,970 --> 02:29:07,260 certain localized versions that you could not type in Taiwan and 2481 02:29:07,260 --> 02:29:10,770 have the flag pop up. You know how the apples 2482 02:29:11,730 --> 02:29:13,680 and they're uptight about that 2483 02:29:13,710 --> 02:29:18,510 right then but then it was it was crashing applications. Here 2484 02:29:18,510 --> 02:29:21,120 in the US. When you type in Taiwan, the minute you hit the 2485 02:29:21,120 --> 02:29:26,580 last the end, it would crash. I don't know. It's a mess. Yeah, 2486 02:29:26,580 --> 02:29:29,490 who cares about Apple self driving car? I don't care. I 2487 02:29:29,490 --> 02:29:34,200 don't want it to call me old fashioned gear Luddite? Yes. 2488 02:29:34,650 --> 02:29:39,150 Well, of course, I'm a Luddite. I've driven the semi autonomous 2489 02:29:39,150 --> 02:29:42,420 and I want nothing to do with it. But that's not as 2490 02:29:42,420 --> 02:29:45,270 interesting to me as the Juan brothers, which you know, we 2491 02:29:45,300 --> 02:29:49,230 only briefly touched on it and want to talk about it. Well, 2492 02:29:49,230 --> 02:29:53,880 this this guy basically got off with a slap on the wrist for the 2493 02:29:53,880 --> 02:29:58,020 bank fraud. Because but there was so much more going on so 2494 02:29:58,020 --> 02:30:01,470 much more reported and the right No one's while Fox News is 2495 02:30:01,470 --> 02:30:06,780 reporting on it. Specifically this Luke, Rosie ACK of The 2496 02:30:06,780 --> 02:30:10,020 Daily Caller, I have some respect for The Daily Caller. 2497 02:30:11,100 --> 02:30:15,270 Their foundation and they have a lot of the right ideas. Of 2498 02:30:15,270 --> 02:30:17,970 course, I will not support them because they're also part of the 2499 02:30:17,970 --> 02:30:22,980 Facebook news factcheck false system, the International fact 2500 02:30:22,980 --> 02:30:26,370 check networks, I want nothing to do with them. But the guy he 2501 02:30:26,370 --> 02:30:28,680 got to hand it to him he has been on the story and it's not 2502 02:30:28,680 --> 02:30:33,840 stop. And if you just hear how much is is still open and in 2503 02:30:33,840 --> 02:30:38,580 question. It's It's stunning that this is not big news. And 2504 02:30:38,580 --> 02:30:40,830 that that's the only thing I will agree on with him. But have 2505 02:30:40,830 --> 02:30:41,610 a listen, there was a 2506 02:30:41,610 --> 02:30:44,370 breach on Congress a hack on Congress during the election 2507 02:30:44,370 --> 02:30:47,640 detected by the House inspector general where these guys were 2508 02:30:47,640 --> 02:30:50,310 funneling data off the House network. And then they actually 2509 02:30:50,310 --> 02:30:53,460 stole a server containing evidence that's essentially like 2510 02:30:53,460 --> 02:30:55,950 killing someone and then had in the body during the election. 2511 02:30:55,950 --> 02:30:58,590 This happened. Correct. And we never heard about this. 2512 02:30:58,590 --> 02:31:00,360 Obviously, this would have been a massive this would have 2513 02:31:00,360 --> 02:31:02,430 changed the election. We're talking about Russia all the 2514 02:31:02,430 --> 02:31:04,830 time. And meanwhile, there's a simultaneous hack that's firstly 2515 02:31:04,830 --> 02:31:07,980 identical, connected to Pakistan. So for the last year, 2516 02:31:07,980 --> 02:31:10,320 we've been trying to unravel this cover up and figure out we 2517 02:31:10,320 --> 02:31:12,870 know the data is going off the House network. Where's it going? 2518 02:31:13,140 --> 02:31:16,050 We now have a source and on the record source, the the one 2519 02:31:16,050 --> 02:31:19,260 family's business partner in Pakistan, a guy named Rashid 2520 02:31:19,260 --> 02:31:24,600 minus who says that Imran Juan's father was giving USBs of data 2521 02:31:24,780 --> 02:31:28,290 to Pakistani intelligence officials. If that's true, then 2522 02:31:28,290 --> 02:31:30,780 what we're talking about here is a spy in Congress that was 2523 02:31:30,780 --> 02:31:32,760 brought in by Debbie Wasserman Schultz and these other 2524 02:31:32,760 --> 02:31:35,850 lawmakers. As you mentioned, we had a really smart reporter a 2525 02:31:35,850 --> 02:31:39,330 guy named Majeed Ali siete from Pakistan, who knows the lay of 2526 02:31:39,330 --> 02:31:41,790 the land over there, and he did extensive reporting trying to 2527 02:31:41,790 --> 02:31:44,730 confirm these allegations. We weren't able to confirm one way 2528 02:31:44,730 --> 02:31:47,760 or another whether there was really USB handoffs, but we on 2529 02:31:47,760 --> 02:31:50,250 Earth information that tends to corroborate some of what this 2530 02:31:50,250 --> 02:31:53,100 guy is saying? Well, we've confirmed from numerous sources 2531 02:31:53,100 --> 02:31:57,480 that Imran Hwan travels Pakistan with an entourage of armed 2532 02:31:57,480 --> 02:32:01,260 government agents from Pakistan, he receives protection from 2533 02:32:01,620 --> 02:32:05,400 Pakistani agents why why would you not have that? Yeah. The 2534 02:32:05,400 --> 02:32:08,430 other thing we confirmed is that he makes these outlandish boasts 2535 02:32:08,430 --> 02:32:11,430 over in Pakistan to everyone he meets about his political power, 2536 02:32:11,580 --> 02:32:14,910 even saying he has the power to change the US President. So when 2537 02:32:14,910 --> 02:32:17,310 we consider the fact that we have we know data was going off 2538 02:32:17,310 --> 02:32:19,890 the House network, and even the fact that he worked for Debbie 2539 02:32:19,890 --> 02:32:22,680 Wasserman Schultz, when this DNC emails were taken. You put it 2540 02:32:22,680 --> 02:32:24,930 all together, and what we're talking about is really 2541 02:32:24,930 --> 02:32:27,150 frightening stuff. Okay, 2542 02:32:27,180 --> 02:32:30,960 yeah. He's not the only part of the one family who worked for 2543 02:32:30,960 --> 02:32:33,330 Debbie Wasserman Schultz or the DNC. 2544 02:32:34,080 --> 02:32:36,960 They had the whole family on the house payroll, and you know, 2545 02:32:36,960 --> 02:32:40,620 even Senator Joe Donnelly from Indiana, he's somehow involved 2546 02:32:40,620 --> 02:32:44,460 in this because he was paid 100 bucks to the father of Imran 2547 02:32:44,460 --> 02:32:47,880 Juan to be a systems administrator. The father is an 2548 02:32:47,880 --> 02:32:51,060 old man in Pakistan, who says in court documents that he's an 2549 02:32:51,060 --> 02:32:53,400 unemployed religious cleric on welfare, 2550 02:32:53,430 --> 02:32:56,490 where are they now? And what is Debbie Wasserman Schultz said 2551 02:32:56,490 --> 02:32:59,220 about this? And where's this missing laptop as well? 2552 02:32:59,730 --> 02:33:02,820 The amazing thing is that they haven't been. They're not in 2553 02:33:02,820 --> 02:33:05,790 jail. There's a whole family of five of them. Two of them were 2554 02:33:05,790 --> 02:33:09,030 charged with trying to flee the country, essentially. But they 2555 02:33:09,030 --> 02:33:11,880 weren't actually charged with the underlying with the 2556 02:33:11,880 --> 02:33:14,580 underlying hacking. And so what happened is, Wasserman Schultz 2557 02:33:14,580 --> 02:33:18,150 refused to fire this guy. When she when he was a known suspect 2558 02:33:18,150 --> 02:33:21,900 and the criminal hacking probe. She insisted on allowing him to 2559 02:33:21,900 --> 02:33:24,480 keep coming into the house building, which is obviously 2560 02:33:24,480 --> 02:33:27,180 completely bizarre. It's frankly irrational given that she had 2561 02:33:27,180 --> 02:33:30,420 just been fired from the DNC. So what he does is he comes into 2562 02:33:30,420 --> 02:33:33,360 the house building at midnight, after he's a criminal hacking 2563 02:33:33,360 --> 02:33:37,110 suspect takes her laptop and leaves it in a phone booth. This 2564 02:33:37,110 --> 02:33:40,710 is like straight out of James Bond. And the twist is he left a 2565 02:33:40,710 --> 02:33:43,290 little note next to it. The first note was letters to 2566 02:33:43,290 --> 02:33:46,050 prosecutors. And then the second thing was a note that said 2567 02:33:46,050 --> 02:33:47,490 attorney client privilege. 2568 02:33:47,940 --> 02:33:51,090 So here's a challenge to our dudes named Ben, you all know 2569 02:33:51,090 --> 02:33:57,600 each other. Find out this is this is a sysadmin issue. You 2570 02:33:57,600 --> 02:33:59,880 need to know we need to know 2571 02:34:00,540 --> 02:34:04,830 I think this is a spook operation at this point. It's to 2572 02:34:04,830 --> 02:34:08,430 all isI not isI spook. I'm talking about one of our guys 2573 02:34:09,510 --> 02:34:12,480 painting it is the only thing that makes any sense it's are 2574 02:34:12,480 --> 02:34:16,410 that everything was covered up is hushed up. I think it would 2575 02:34:16,410 --> 02:34:22,290 these guys were brought in to spy on someone as part of some 2576 02:34:22,410 --> 02:34:25,860 something we don't know I mean there we can't find out it's one 2577 02:34:25,860 --> 02:34:29,310 of these things and the guys who were shuffled off they were 2578 02:34:29,310 --> 02:34:32,340 extracted and sent back to Pakistan for now and there's 2579 02:34:32,340 --> 02:34:35,400 nobody pursuing it because it's like, you know, they get the 2580 02:34:35,400 --> 02:34:38,040 phone call saying hey, you can't proceed because this is national 2581 02:34:38,040 --> 02:34:39,720 security. You know, just knock it off. 2582 02:34:41,310 --> 02:34:44,130 Yeah, we don't have to send around D notices here in the in 2583 02:34:44,130 --> 02:34:52,380 America. We just we just call you know, okay, both. That's our 2584 02:34:52,380 --> 02:34:56,490 press freedom right there. Press Freedom so important, so 2585 02:34:56,490 --> 02:35:02,250 important that the President is going to meet with Putin. Oh 2586 02:35:02,250 --> 02:35:05,910 boy. Even Shep Smith is upset about this one. So I have 2587 02:35:06,750 --> 02:35:12,750 NATO. I have the UK which is in somewhat turmoil. And I have 2588 02:35:12,750 --> 02:35:16,860 Putin. Frankly, Putin may be the easiest of all who would think 2589 02:35:17,130 --> 02:35:17,820 who would think 2590 02:35:18,360 --> 02:35:22,050 he may be right? After all, President Trump has been 2591 02:35:22,050 --> 02:35:25,950 demanding our NATO allies spend more on defense and questioning 2592 02:35:25,950 --> 02:35:30,300 why the United States is protecting Germany. But when it 2593 02:35:30,300 --> 02:35:33,780 comes to Putin, NATO's main adversary, the man who ordered 2594 02:35:33,780 --> 02:35:36,780 the meddling in our election, invaded Ukraine and took over 2595 02:35:36,780 --> 02:35:41,040 Crimea. Oh, the former KGB agent who stands accused of poisoning 2596 02:35:41,040 --> 02:35:44,460 a former spy in England and murdering journalists and his 2597 02:35:44,460 --> 02:35:48,600 own political opponents. Of him President Trump recently said 2598 02:35:49,380 --> 02:35:54,150 Putin is fine. In fact, aides say President Trump and Putin 2599 02:35:54,390 --> 02:35:58,590 plan to sit down in a room with no advisors and no transcribers 2600 02:35:58,950 --> 02:36:02,970 only their translators. Of course, NATO was created to 2601 02:36:02,970 --> 02:36:08,100 protect the European nations from Russian aggression. Never 2602 02:36:08,100 --> 02:36:11,520 in our nation's history. No has a reality like that existed 2603 02:36:11,880 --> 02:36:17,040 SpaceForce you're gonna say something 2604 02:36:17,070 --> 02:36:19,890 protect him from Soviet Union? Yeah, yeah, 2605 02:36:19,890 --> 02:36:22,080 you're right. You're right. Soviet Union, we have to stay on 2606 02:36:22,080 --> 02:36:24,690 top of that. And you're absolutely right. They actually, 2607 02:36:24,900 --> 02:36:29,220 we think it's very important what we do, of course, but when 2608 02:36:29,220 --> 02:36:31,890 it really comes down to do people really care. Are people 2609 02:36:31,890 --> 02:36:35,040 really, really worried about doing follow the Mueller 2610 02:36:35,040 --> 02:36:37,830 investigation? Or is it all just one big thing on Twitter? 2611 02:36:37,920 --> 02:36:41,100 I take your earlier clip with the idiots that don't know 2612 02:36:41,100 --> 02:36:46,560 anything. Just spewing their their personal bigotries? Pretty 2613 02:36:46,560 --> 02:36:48,960 much, I think summarizes what you just asked. 2614 02:36:48,990 --> 02:36:52,710 Okay, and I think I can add a little a little bit on top of 2615 02:36:52,710 --> 02:36:56,520 that. Big fan of the show Jeopardy. love watching 2616 02:36:56,520 --> 02:36:59,940 Jeopardy. That's where the smart people go. You'd think 2617 02:37:00,750 --> 02:37:04,980 and I'll take Russia meddling for 1000 Alex, only the smartest 2618 02:37:04,980 --> 02:37:07,680 of the smart get to be on Jeopardy. Right. So what does 2619 02:37:07,680 --> 02:37:11,370 this little exchange last night say about the nation's focus or 2620 02:37:11,370 --> 02:37:13,620 lack thereof on the whole Mueller Russia meddling and 2621 02:37:13,620 --> 02:37:14,880 collusion investigation? 2622 02:37:17,220 --> 02:37:22,230 In 2017, this ex National Security Adviser pleaded guilty 2623 02:37:22,230 --> 02:37:24,780 to lying to the FBI. 2624 02:37:26,010 --> 02:37:28,080 John, do you know the answer? 2625 02:37:28,650 --> 02:37:30,090 Yeah, that'd be Flynn. 2626 02:37:31,410 --> 02:37:37,740 I'm sorry. Oh, I'm so sorry. You didn't answer in the form of the 2627 02:37:37,740 --> 02:37:38,910 question. Who is Flynn, 2628 02:37:39,240 --> 02:37:46,410 lying to the FBI? Suzanne was Kelly. No. Steve, 2629 02:37:46,470 --> 02:37:48,450 it was Gorka. No, Gorka. 2630 02:37:50,040 --> 02:37:52,740 I would bomb on Jeopardy but I get that one right the answer? 2631 02:37:53,100 --> 02:37:55,410 Who is Michael Flynn 2632 02:37:58,170 --> 02:38:02,520 That's how important it is. Nobody knows nothing. 2633 02:38:05,100 --> 02:38:07,200 And these are the Jeopardy people on Jeopardy or 2634 02:38:07,200 --> 02:38:12,510 short as Jeopardy man. Jeopardy. I can never watch the show 2635 02:38:12,510 --> 02:38:17,760 again. Okay, get 2636 02:38:17,760 --> 02:38:22,560 it Kardashian question right. Yeah, no kid. Okay. Another 2637 02:38:22,560 --> 02:38:28,020 local story. I wonder this is almost an ask Adam is not quite 2638 02:38:28,950 --> 02:38:32,490 wants you to play this Bart is not safe clip. Okay. 2639 02:38:33,570 --> 02:38:36,840 Tomorrow Bart planners are expected to discuss two options 2640 02:38:36,840 --> 02:38:39,780 for early morning service. That's because BART trains are 2641 02:38:39,780 --> 02:38:43,950 scheduled to start an hour later next year. Starting in February 2642 02:38:43,950 --> 02:38:48,600 Bart service will begin at 5am instead of 4am. This is an order 2643 02:38:48,600 --> 02:38:52,470 to give crews more time to make the underwater transbay tube 2644 02:38:52,500 --> 02:38:55,590 earthquake safe. Tomorrow the BART Board of Directors will 2645 02:38:55,590 --> 02:38:57,300 hear competing proposals. 2646 02:38:58,050 --> 02:38:58,860 Okay, 2647 02:38:59,220 --> 02:39:03,840 I cut it off. Because when they met they put this tube in really 2648 02:39:03,840 --> 02:39:09,000 recently within my you know, I and it wasn't saved or made 2649 02:39:09,000 --> 02:39:11,040 earthquake proof when it was put in. 2650 02:39:11,970 --> 02:39:16,890 Are you kidding me? So it's not an old old thing. It's new. 2651 02:39:17,430 --> 02:39:22,560 Yes, it wasn't put in the 1920s or anything. So they put this 2652 02:39:22,560 --> 02:39:25,470 thing in in there now they're gonna make it. It doesn't make 2653 02:39:25,470 --> 02:39:28,080 sense to me that they were they they just either bought a 2654 02:39:28,110 --> 02:39:32,220 boondoggle as a waste of money, or just store the thing is a 2655 02:39:32,250 --> 02:39:34,980 disaster. I did I find it very 2656 02:39:35,220 --> 02:39:39,660 weird. Don't take the BART would be my advice at all. 2657 02:39:40,140 --> 02:39:43,140 So we have another another story when they Bush brings me the 2658 02:39:43,140 --> 02:39:45,960 boondoggles and you one more local story. I want you to 2659 02:39:45,960 --> 02:39:48,540 listen carefully to this story and tell me if you think there's 2660 02:39:48,540 --> 02:39:51,840 some screw boss information in here. This is the cost of 2661 02:39:51,840 --> 02:39:54,030 graffiti in San Francisco. 2662 02:39:54,060 --> 02:39:58,110 This is really putting together a very complex case. It was 2663 02:39:58,110 --> 02:40:01,500 easier for us to go to a grand jury In terms of the scope of 2664 02:40:01,500 --> 02:40:02,520 the work, 2665 02:40:02,640 --> 02:40:05,340 the district attorney's office says the city spends in excess 2666 02:40:05,340 --> 02:40:09,270 of $20 million a year getting rid of graffiti and businesses 2667 02:40:09,270 --> 02:40:13,230 pay more than $3,300 on average to clean up a major incident 2668 02:40:15,269 --> 02:40:18,689 they busted a bunch of graffiti guys just doing a lot of tagging 2669 02:40:18,689 --> 02:40:24,179 and making a mess. But do you think any city spends $23 2670 02:40:24,269 --> 02:40:31,979 million to clean up a few tags here and there? I don't know. I 2671 02:40:31,979 --> 02:40:32,219 mean, I 2672 02:40:32,220 --> 02:40:34,620 know they spend 20 million on cleaning up poop 2673 02:40:37,740 --> 02:40:40,440 I think it's a scam they're not spending that kind of money to 2674 02:40:40,440 --> 02:40:43,530 clean up graffiti and what's the city spending it for? I thought 2675 02:40:43,530 --> 02:40:49,860 most of them the business owner takes 20 $3,300 to clean up one 2676 02:40:49,860 --> 02:40:52,830 incident how many incidents are there and that's the business 2677 02:40:52,830 --> 02:40:56,070 owners responsible he's been scraping it off the window 2678 02:40:56,070 --> 02:40:56,490 whenever 2679 02:40:56,490 --> 02:40:58,380 there's about 900 incidents 2680 02:40:59,970 --> 02:41:03,660 well there could be but then it's still this that's not the 2681 02:41:03,660 --> 02:41:08,850 city's responsibility is the city do they only do your work 2682 02:41:08,850 --> 02:41:10,890 just fine this number to be outrageous really 2683 02:41:10,890 --> 02:41:12,120 worked up about this 2684 02:41:13,560 --> 02:41:17,280 is California this is another local another local scam. 2685 02:41:17,280 --> 02:41:18,900 They're just stealing money from the public. 2686 02:41:18,930 --> 02:41:24,750 John you live in California.

A new survey by the 2731 02:43:42,810 --> 02:43:46,140 New York Times says the top reason is childcare is too 2732 02:43:46,140 --> 02:43:49,110 expensive. Others said they wanted more time for the kids 2733 02:43:49,110 --> 02:43:53,010 they already have and a third factor fears about the economy. 2734 02:43:53,790 --> 02:43:55,110 No no no dogs. 2735 02:43:56,400 --> 02:44:02,670 We know the true answer to that.
