00:01:25,439 --> 00:01:29,799
everyone back to the Pekana Show. Stormy is back for

16
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:35,000
part two talking about the quote unquote Robber Barons. How

17
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:35,799
are you doing, Stormy.

18
00:01:36,239 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 2: I'm doing very well. I'm doing very well. Yes, yes, yes, yes.

19
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 3: So in the previous episode I mentioned that Jack Now sorry,

20
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:03,280
John Pierpont Morgan's I think a great great great grand

21
00:02:03,319 --> 00:02:06,560
no great great grandfather. At that point in time was

22
00:02:06,599 --> 00:02:11,199
the same as the rum Bottle pirate. It's not necessarily

23
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,919
the case. All he was is he was a He

24
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:19,439
was a very famous privateer during like the lead up to.

25
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:22,319
Speaker 2: He was doing.

26
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 3: Sketchy stuff before the Revolutionary War, was a privateer and

27
00:02:28,719 --> 00:02:31,280
then continued on being a privateer.

28
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 2: I'm assuming in it was it.

29
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 3: The when the when the US had the problem with

30
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,919
the Moors. So this was like still like what the

31
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:43,879
Barbara the Barbary pirates.

32
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 4: There you go, there you go.

33
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:51,879
Speaker 3: So yeah, so he was a pirate named Morgan and

34
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,879
a privateer named Morgan. Whether or not that's the same

35
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,520
Captain Morgan, probably not.

36
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 2: I probably don't think that it is. I don't know

37
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,759
the genial of the rum Bottle guy.

38
00:03:02,159 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 1: And was that from Was that from the House of

39
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,120
Was that from the House of Morgan? Book? That that

40
00:03:06,199 --> 00:03:06,800
implied that.

41
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 3: Yes, House of the House of Morgan first two chapters

42
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:17,039
is about the is about his the the Morgan family

43
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,759
prior to John Pierpont, right, so you had his John

44
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:27,400
Pierpont's dad who I can't remember I'm blanking on, which

45
00:03:27,439 --> 00:03:31,840
I think was just Pierpont, and then before him going

46
00:03:31,879 --> 00:03:35,080
back like two generations three generations, so it was it

47
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:39,319
goes into very early Morgan history, long before banking and

48
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:43,840
long before Pierpont was selling American bombs to English investors,

49
00:03:43,919 --> 00:03:47,280
so this would still be like, you know, British financial

50
00:03:47,319 --> 00:03:53,639
primacy both pre Revolutionary War and early after. And then

51
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,479
so two generations it was. Yeah, it goes back to

52
00:03:58,599 --> 00:04:03,120
like the mid sixteen hundreds, Morgan family not doing too much.

53
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,360
It's you know, the chapters are kind of quick in

54
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,400
comparison to the rest of the information, you know, packed

55
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,319
into the later chapters. It's a nine hundred page tone,

56
00:04:12,759 --> 00:04:15,199
but anybody that has the time to read it, I

57
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:21,839
really think you should because it goes into after John

58
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:29,279
died and Jack took over the bank had gotten so big.

59
00:04:29,959 --> 00:04:35,319
I was talking to a mutual friend, got a fantastic

60
00:04:35,319 --> 00:04:38,800
account to follow. He and I geek out about science

61
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:43,279
and consciousness science all the time. We actually did a

62
00:04:43,319 --> 00:04:47,279
really popular which I'm glad. I still find it. I

63
00:04:47,319 --> 00:04:50,639
still find it kind of like shocking that anybody like

64
00:04:50,759 --> 00:04:57,240
finds my private interests like interesting. Yeah, I know, people

65
00:04:57,399 --> 00:05:00,480
like professionally, I'm kind of used to, like you know,

66
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,360
speaking at summits or whatever or conferences. So I know,

67
00:05:04,439 --> 00:05:08,319
like my public you know, professional ideas can sometimes be interesting,

68
00:05:09,399 --> 00:05:11,720
but I still find it amazing that people find like

69
00:05:12,879 --> 00:05:16,399
the stuff I nerd out to privately of value. But

70
00:05:16,639 --> 00:05:19,079
he and I did a really great consciousness series on

71
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:23,120
like the state of consciousness science and what the implications are.

72
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:30,879
But he and I were talking about about the peculiarities

73
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:39,680
of WASP patronage and why it's different than anything. So

74
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,720
a he called me because when I said in the

75
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:48,240
last show that the European aristocracy had really been dead

76
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:54,439
for two hundred years by the time the revolution rolled around,

77
00:05:54,639 --> 00:06:00,480
and he very begrudgingly, you know, his colinies said, I

78
00:06:00,519 --> 00:06:04,079
think you're right, it's really really, really sad. But by

79
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:09,439
the time this sixteen hundred seventeen hundreds, I guess it

80
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,000
was more similar to what we have today as elites,

81
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:21,079
just very unimpressive people that became kind of with few exceptions,

82
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:30,480
but very very vamporistic and not the type of behavior

83
00:06:30,519 --> 00:06:34,319
that you and I were talking about on our first episode,

84
00:06:35,439 --> 00:06:41,240
And in talking about that, we touched on kind of

85
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:45,079
the solo You're not going to like, I've never heard

86
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:49,480
of something like this practiced in any other society or

87
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:54,160
any other culture, but you see it throughout the American

88
00:06:54,959 --> 00:07:01,120
you know aristocracy, and it died out roughly around the

89
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,680
same time as their power died out in the sixties

90
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,199
was probably like the total disenfranchisement. But by the forties

91
00:07:08,199 --> 00:07:12,240
it was it was really well underway. But Jack Morgan,

92
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:17,399
the son of John Pierpont, by the time the Second

93
00:07:17,639 --> 00:07:22,480
or the First World War wrapped up JP Morgan and

94
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:28,639
and really Wall Street in its entirety had official like

95
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,319
officially like it was it was. It wasn't in doubt anymore. Right,

96
00:07:32,399 --> 00:07:35,879
the financial headquarters, the financial capital of the world was

97
00:07:35,879 --> 00:07:40,839
now New York, Right. World War One ended England's financial

98
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:48,439
you know primacy in the world and the financial capital.

99
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:56,639
Speaker 2: Of capital was in America now, and all of a.

100
00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 3: Sudden, the it became very important for.

101
00:08:04,519 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 2: JP Morgan, the Institution two. It went from a very

102
00:08:11,199 --> 00:08:15,319
hyper nationalist or a hyper national bank. Right it really

103
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:19,439
like all of morgan financial power was concentrated into roughly

104
00:08:19,519 --> 00:08:23,040
two buildings plus Pierpont's apartment and.

105
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 3: Jack's estate in the Hamptons, and that was it. But

106
00:08:31,319 --> 00:08:36,759
a rapid expansion was needed before for them to hold

107
00:08:36,799 --> 00:08:37,799
on to that primacy.

108
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 2: So Jack ended up moving to England shortly after.

109
00:08:47,519 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 3: These guys never really moved to any place not to

110
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:55,039
you know, call them cosmopolitan, you know, rootless cosmopolitans. But

111
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,799
these men, you know, had a a state in the

112
00:08:58,919 --> 00:09:02,720
UK usually and it wasn't just it wasn't just Jack Morgan.

113
00:09:03,159 --> 00:09:07,120
A lot of these guys did, right that they would

114
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:14,120
spend the summer months because you know, the hunting, particularly

115
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:19,559
bird hunting and most importantly fox hunting was it was

116
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,240
just the thing to do. So these men would have

117
00:09:23,279 --> 00:09:26,279
places and you know in the city, New York City,

118
00:09:26,519 --> 00:09:29,279
a place in London in the city, and then a

119
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,399
country estate and usually another estate out in like the

120
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:37,279
Hampton's or Newport, Rhode Island. But Jack would move to

121
00:09:37,279 --> 00:09:40,279
spend most of his time in his country estate. He

122
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:44,679
literally became like full on country gentlemen, like out of

123
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,519
what you would imagine like downtown Abbey is right, Like,

124
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,480
that's that's how he, you know, lived the rest of

125
00:09:51,519 --> 00:09:54,360
his life. He would probably spend only five or six

126
00:09:54,399 --> 00:09:58,519
months back in New York because his primary focus became

127
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:04,279
the international operation of the bank, right, Like, a lot

128
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:08,559
of responsibility comes from primacy, and so the need for

129
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,000
JP Morgan to have a footprint in Japan, which at

130
00:10:13,039 --> 00:10:17,519
this point was just rising and rapidly industrializing. Capital needed

131
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:24,799
to be there, and in Shanghai, and in Brussels, and

132
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:30,759
in France, and and and that really dominated most of

133
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:36,759
Jack's involvement for the rest of his life in JP Morgan.

134
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:42,399
So US Operations was really where the core of the

135
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:46,679
business was, right, you know, kind of like how all

136
00:10:46,759 --> 00:10:51,399
of our even all of our corporate you know, decisions

137
00:10:51,399 --> 00:10:54,799
are now made in Washington, right like it, you know

138
00:10:55,159 --> 00:10:59,919
it power kind of centralizes all by itself. So the

139
00:11:01,039 --> 00:11:06,240
US Operations passed on to a guy by the name

140
00:11:06,279 --> 00:11:13,080
of Thomas Lamont. And Thomas Lamont is probably the It

141
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,639
probably doesn't sound like a very familiar name to anybody,

142
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:22,320
but if you google Thomas Lamont you'll find out he's

143
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,840
one of the most important people in the last you know,

144
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:30,720
from merely World War Two onto his death, which I

145
00:11:30,759 --> 00:11:35,559
believe was in the eighties. All right, But the man

146
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,840
who made JP Morgan kind of what it is today

147
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:46,240
was Thomas Lamont and not Jack Morgan. Right, Jack, at

148
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,240
this point in time, by the time World War two

149
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:54,480
rolled around, Jack's entire interests were politics, particularly US politics,

150
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,480
you know, being in Europe and seeing what was happening

151
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:02,840
in Europe increase that even more. But I want to

152
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:04,759
touch on this type of patronage before we get into

153
00:12:04,759 --> 00:12:10,440
the business plot. Thomas Lamont was an orphan, right, a pauper.

154
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:15,720
So not only did he have really no family to

155
00:12:15,759 --> 00:12:19,039
speak of, No, I think he had his father, who

156
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:25,799
I believe died when he was in a twelve or ten,

157
00:12:28,519 --> 00:12:38,039
and the family that Tom's father worked for a right,

158
00:12:38,399 --> 00:12:43,320
this is another thing. Right, So like, let's say you

159
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:47,519
work for one of these men, right, like you're their

160
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,519
mechanic for their automobiles. Because back then, you know, you

161
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:55,399
needed a mechanic because you probably had two cars, and

162
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,200
if you didn't have a mechanic, there wouldn't be a

163
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,039
guarantee that one of those two would be running at

164
00:13:01,039 --> 00:13:03,320
any given time. So if you wanted a car that

165
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:07,639
you could drive, you know, whenever you wanted to, that

166
00:13:07,759 --> 00:13:11,799
required a mechanic to guarantee. So whether you're the mechanic,

167
00:13:11,919 --> 00:13:15,240
whether you're the cobbler, right, you make the you make

168
00:13:15,279 --> 00:13:21,759
one of these men's shoes, you're his tailor, right, you

169
00:13:21,799 --> 00:13:25,840
work closely with any of these men, and if something

170
00:13:25,879 --> 00:13:29,120
were to ever happen to you. Right, this is before

171
00:13:29,159 --> 00:13:33,360
like medicare medicids. So security, like life insurance was kind

172
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:40,440
of a thing, but it was prohibitively expensive. Really, all

173
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,360
of insurance was prohibitively expensive in that in that time,

174
00:13:43,399 --> 00:13:48,080
whether it be shipping or otherwise, there was no safety

175
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,919
net for you. Right, So if you're the son of

176
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:58,759
a mechanic and your dad dies, your mom is basically

177
00:13:58,799 --> 00:14:02,879
going to be on the streets and the rest of

178
00:14:02,919 --> 00:14:07,960
your life is gonna look like just abject horror. Right,

179
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:14,320
And what only the only the was aristocracy made a

180
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:19,000
point of doing is whenever something like that would happen, Right,

181
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,720
anyone that worked for the family in any capacity, if

182
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,519
something were to happen, they felt it was their duty

183
00:14:26,559 --> 00:14:34,120
to house whether she you know, whether you know you're

184
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:39,080
the mechanic's wife, you know, your mom in this hypothetical scenario,

185
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,000
got moved into one of the guest homes or you know,

186
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,200
the maid's quarters, whether that be a separate house on

187
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:53,200
the property or inside the main house, and you would

188
00:14:53,200 --> 00:15:00,200
be sent to boarding school. Right that these people, it's

189
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:05,960
really a shame. These men believe that it was their

190
00:15:06,039 --> 00:15:11,320
duty to ensure that you were educated to like the

191
00:15:11,399 --> 00:15:17,159
highest degree, right, because you were basically their responsibility.

192
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:18,279
Speaker 4: Right.

193
00:15:18,279 --> 00:15:21,399
Speaker 2: So if you're going to be their responsibility, you are,

194
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:26,879
in one way, shape or form, a representation of their

195
00:15:27,399 --> 00:15:30,679
of them, of their magn of who they are as

196
00:15:30,679 --> 00:15:31,000
a man.

197
00:15:31,799 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 4: Right.

198
00:15:32,039 --> 00:15:36,679
Speaker 2: So, like the reason why you treat your wife nicely

199
00:15:36,759 --> 00:15:39,759
or your girlfriend very nicely, the reason why you want

200
00:15:39,799 --> 00:15:44,519
her to dress very nicely, be presentable, and why you

201
00:15:44,559 --> 00:15:47,559
want everyone to treat her very very well when she

202
00:15:47,639 --> 00:15:50,600
goes out is because she is a representation of you.

203
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,159
She is your proxy.

204
00:15:57,799 --> 00:15:57,919
Speaker 4: Right.

205
00:15:58,039 --> 00:16:03,679
Speaker 2: So if somebody disrespects her, she's disrespect they're disrespecting you, right.

206
00:16:03,919 --> 00:16:11,039
Speaker 3: And how she appears and how she you know, carries

207
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:14,799
herself is a representation is a representation of you.

208
00:16:15,759 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 4: Right.

209
00:16:16,039 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 3: How your house looks. If your house is a fucking mess,

210
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:24,480
nobody's going to respect you. Like your home, your family,

211
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:30,799
your wife. These are all a man's proxies, right, like

212
00:16:30,879 --> 00:16:34,720
his avatars. Wherever they go, they will always be a

213
00:16:34,759 --> 00:16:36,480
representation of him the man.

214
00:16:39,559 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 2: And these men viewed that that boundary layer much further

215
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:47,919
out than we do.

216
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:48,799
Speaker 4: Right.

217
00:16:48,879 --> 00:16:52,639
Speaker 2: So, if you were in the employee of one of

218
00:16:52,679 --> 00:16:57,440
these men, and God forbids something happen to you, right,

219
00:16:57,799 --> 00:17:03,840
they would take you know, that man's children as their responsibility,

220
00:17:04,079 --> 00:17:04,960
not their children.

221
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:05,279
Speaker 1: Right.

222
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:09,039
Speaker 3: They're not adopting them, right, but they're taking them on

223
00:17:09,759 --> 00:17:14,400
because it was their duty. Right. This man worked for me,

224
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,799
he was under my employee, and now something terrible has

225
00:17:18,799 --> 00:17:19,519
happened to him.

226
00:17:19,759 --> 00:17:23,839
Speaker 2: It is my job as a man to make sure

227
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:27,720
that his kids have at least every opportunity. Whatever the

228
00:17:27,799 --> 00:17:32,720
children do with the opportunities, right, that's no reflection on you,

229
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:38,920
But them being denied those opportunities is a reflection on you.

230
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:44,200
You send the child of your mechanic, your former deceased mechanic,

231
00:17:44,839 --> 00:17:47,799
you send him to the same boarding schools that you

232
00:17:47,839 --> 00:17:51,920
send your children to, because that's the type of person

233
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:56,480
you are. Not only are your sons, it's expected that

234
00:17:56,559 --> 00:18:01,559
your sons would go to this boarding school, but you

235
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:05,559
are sending that young man to the same boarding school,

236
00:18:05,599 --> 00:18:11,160
which means you're basically telling something to the world.

237
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:12,839
Speaker 4: Right.

238
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 2: They're telling the world that they have not shirked their duty,

239
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:28,119
which is really like the defining characteristic of these you know,

240
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:33,000
how they oriented themselves in the world. So Tom Lamont

241
00:18:33,079 --> 00:18:36,920
was one of those kids, and this is what the

242
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:43,880
wasp aristocracy did that no other aristocracy did, right, you

243
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,799
It was a type of eugenics.

244
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:54,759
Speaker 3: And the entire like defining criteria was character. And you

245
00:18:54,799 --> 00:18:58,279
see character talked about all the time, right if you

246
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:04,279
read uh anything, any of the correspondents of any of

247
00:19:04,279 --> 00:19:06,680
these men, whether it be Rockefeller, would be Carnegie, whether

248
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:11,400
it be DuPont, any of the DuPont brothers, they talk

249
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:16,519
about characters so much. All Right, character is you know,

250
00:19:16,599 --> 00:19:19,839
everybody talks about like how based, you know, how based

251
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,480
the National Socialists were. You know that they you know,

252
00:19:22,559 --> 00:19:25,400
they understood the importance of eugenics. Where did they get

253
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,920
that understanding of eugenics from.

254
00:19:27,799 --> 00:19:34,039
Speaker 1: People the progressive movement in the United States?

255
00:19:34,079 --> 00:19:41,640
Speaker 2: Basically mhm no, I mean yeah, well I would say it.

256
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,480
I would say it's not the progressive movement.

257
00:19:44,599 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 3: I mean John D. Rockefeller wasn't a progressive and he

258
00:19:47,039 --> 00:19:49,680
was the guy that in doubt all the all of

259
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:54,359
the institutes. But they were sorting for they were doing eugenics,

260
00:19:54,559 --> 00:19:58,519
but they were sorting for character. If you look at

261
00:19:58,559 --> 00:20:02,880
like all of the genetic the eugenics discussions at the time,

262
00:20:03,559 --> 00:20:05,920
they weren't trying to like root out who is going

263
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,519
to be like the weakest or who is going to

264
00:20:09,559 --> 00:20:12,599
be the most trail or who is going to be

265
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,160
the strongest and the best looking. That's not what they

266
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:21,079
were sorting for. They were sorting for character rights. It's

267
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,920
impossible to miss if you're looking at any of the

268
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,599
dialogue on eugenics of the time, right like, oh, well,

269
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,400
you know this is a lie, like in these people.

270
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:38,119
These people, you know, can't reproduce because if you look,

271
00:20:38,799 --> 00:20:42,160
you know both of the parents are criminals, or the

272
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,720
mother is an alcoholic and the father is a criminal.

273
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,640
The children of this union will only have poor character.

274
00:20:50,759 --> 00:20:56,200
So character was a defining thing for the aristocracy of America.

275
00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:01,480
And when they would give out this patron right, when

276
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,839
they take responsibility for these kids, and they would do

277
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:07,200
it a lot like you could find It would take

278
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,400
you not too much searching, but you could find that

279
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:14,160
you would find out that John D. Rockefeller probably did that.

280
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:19,359
He'd probably put forty kids through private school that other

281
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:25,960
than his children, the DuPonts, even more the Morgans. This

282
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:30,480
was how they brought new blood into the aristocracy. Right

283
00:21:30,519 --> 00:21:34,039
when anyone somebody was when someone was in their service

284
00:21:35,079 --> 00:21:38,200
and something bad happened to that person, they would take

285
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:42,759
the children and give the children the same opportunities that

286
00:21:42,799 --> 00:21:45,640
their children had, and they would see, they would sit

287
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:49,079
and wait, and if the person was of good character,

288
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:55,160
the same opportunities you know later on in life would

289
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:56,160
be provided to them.

290
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:57,160
Speaker 4: Right.

291
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,640
Speaker 3: That's how you get to be Tom Lamont, you know,

292
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:05,039
orphan kid going to the nicest prep school in America

293
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:06,400
because who your dad worked for?

294
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 1: And you were you were you aware that his great

295
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:16,000
grandson ned is the governor of Connecticut.

296
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:26,559
Speaker 2: No, that is right now? Yeah, that's so upsetting, so upsetting.

297
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,079
Speaker 3: One of the things I resent the most is not

298
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,519
being able to live in New England anymore. I grew

299
00:22:34,599 --> 00:22:38,079
up in Connecticut, like I had probably the most idyllic

300
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:44,400
childhood anyone could ever have. I've done a beautiful old

301
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:51,200
stone house, uh fucking almost a mile long driveway to

302
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:56,519
a nice gate with a big stone wall, and the

303
00:22:56,559 --> 00:23:01,079
stone wall ended up ended in two pill with lamp posts.

304
00:23:01,079 --> 00:23:03,720
And that's like, I don't get to live there anymore

305
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:10,559
because the city governments and the state governments can't stop

306
00:23:10,599 --> 00:23:15,920
borrowing money, and the interest on that money is literally

307
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:20,160
making them insolvent. So my friends that still live there,

308
00:23:20,839 --> 00:23:25,119
their property taxes are roughly about as much as their mortgage,

309
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:26,960
except for they're never going to be able to pay

310
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,359
off their property taxes. And unlike their mortgage that stays

311
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:38,200
roughly the same, their property tax is double pretty much

312
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:44,119
every five years, So either their money doubles every five years,

313
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:49,880
which it doesn't. Eventually every town in Connecticut is going

314
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,440
to be the largest property the largest property owners in

315
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,440
Connecticut are going to be you know, the towns themselves.

316
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,960
So yeah, that and how they are intent on, you know,

317
00:24:02,039 --> 00:24:04,720
running the country. Like it drives me nuts that I

318
00:24:04,759 --> 00:24:07,319
can't even live in New England, like the old New

319
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,799
England's the prettiest place in the entire country. Like sorry

320
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:17,000
you know out West Bros. And sorry Montana Bros. And

321
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:21,480
sorry Wyoming Bros. Rural New England.

322
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 2: Is the prettiest place in the entire confident of the

323
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:25,599
United States.

324
00:24:27,279 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 4: It just is.

325
00:24:29,319 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 2: And it's the only place with history, right, Like you're

326
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,079
not going to be walking through the woods in anyway. Well,

327
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:37,119
I mean, yeah, it just gets.

328
00:24:37,279 --> 00:24:39,839
Speaker 1: I think Virginia. I think Virginia bros. Will have a

329
00:24:40,799 --> 00:24:42,319
have a fit if you say it's the only place

330
00:24:42,319 --> 00:24:43,039
it has history.

331
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, but we also have you have, But Virginia Bros.

332
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,400
Don't get fall like New England gets fall, so they

333
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:53,720
are as pretty seventy five percent of the time actually,

334
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,079
like yeah, seventy five percent of the time. But then,

335
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,559
like you know, when fall comes around, we kind of

336
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,400
edge our way out in front. And I'm sure they

337
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:07,200
would be willing to concede that. I will concede their

338
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:12,079
springs are probably prettier than ours because they get warmer faster.

339
00:25:13,799 --> 00:25:18,160
But yeah, also another place that's been equally destroyed. So

340
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:22,400
I find it really really funny that that guy, especially

341
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:28,000
with that name, is now presiding over it. Like just

342
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,160
the absolute destruction of the moral compass of the boomer

343
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:38,519
generation astounds me. Anyways, getting off track, I do that

344
00:25:38,559 --> 00:25:42,240
a lot, but it was a type of patronage that

345
00:25:45,039 --> 00:25:48,400
I think that we should Obviously, I don't think we

346
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:52,400
should be putting strangers kids through college or to school,

347
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,400
but I think that this is something that all of

348
00:25:55,480 --> 00:26:02,480
us can do, right if you. I think if somebody

349
00:26:02,519 --> 00:26:07,440
loses their job in our thing, I think it's every

350
00:26:07,759 --> 00:26:10,400
one of our duties to try and help that person

351
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:16,599
find a new job, like at bare minimum.

352
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I just released I just released an episode

353
00:26:19,039 --> 00:26:23,519
this week, uh today myself and uh not me not

354
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:28,079
you from OGC. He he was on the ground in

355
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,279
North Carolina for the past uh you know, he was

356
00:26:31,319 --> 00:26:35,039
there after the try to help with the relief efforts

357
00:26:35,039 --> 00:26:37,440
and everything. And you know, one of the things he

358
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:41,440
said at the end was he said, young guys who

359
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:46,039
think you you know, you're missing out on adventure, go

360
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,480
there right now. People need help. There are people who

361
00:26:49,519 --> 00:26:52,720
are willing to help their The means are there. You

362
00:26:52,759 --> 00:26:54,759
can click up with people in the Old Glory Club

363
00:26:54,759 --> 00:26:57,599
who are on the ground right now. Go do it.

364
00:26:57,759 --> 00:27:00,880
And we owe it. We owe it to to these

365
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:01,680
people to do it.

366
00:27:03,039 --> 00:27:04,519
Speaker 2: How many people took them up on that?

367
00:27:06,319 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 1: I just released the episode so like three hours ago,

368
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,279
So okay, I.

369
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:13,880
Speaker 2: Missed that first part. Yeah.

370
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 3: I strongly encourage anybody that's listening to this to go

371
00:27:17,319 --> 00:27:27,359
then listen to that episode and just we need to

372
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:33,559
be better because we used to be better and we're

373
00:27:33,599 --> 00:27:37,079
really good at making excuses. And I think that's what

374
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,759
mud like. I think that's one of the biggest crutches

375
00:27:40,799 --> 00:27:43,880
of our time, is that we've gotten so much better

376
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,519
and there's so many like little things that take away

377
00:27:46,519 --> 00:27:50,559
your time or could consume your time whenever that we've

378
00:27:50,559 --> 00:27:53,759
gotten really good at coming up with excuses or the

379
00:27:53,799 --> 00:27:57,559
excuses are provided to us for why we don't do

380
00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:02,279
things that we know we should. So, I know there's

381
00:28:02,319 --> 00:28:06,680
a couple guys in the in you know, our thing

382
00:28:07,279 --> 00:28:13,240
that you know, I've tried to help employ, sorry, not personally,

383
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,680
but make sure that they are introduced to people that

384
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,519
will give them a career that they want or a

385
00:28:19,559 --> 00:28:22,319
career that I think that they would be very foolish

386
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:26,279
to not take. And if you're listening to this and

387
00:28:26,319 --> 00:28:31,200
you're in a similar position, that needs to be something

388
00:28:31,319 --> 00:28:39,839
you do if something bad happens to somebody in our

389
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:45,680
not just in our thing, Like, if you're listening to this,

390
00:28:46,039 --> 00:28:50,000
you have a responsibility to be better than everybody else.

391
00:28:51,319 --> 00:28:53,079
And not like in the way that all the people

392
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:57,759
in our that some people in our thing larp as aristocrats,

393
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,279
as disenfrangised a ristics.

394
00:29:00,359 --> 00:29:01,119
Speaker 2: There's nothing.

395
00:29:05,119 --> 00:29:09,519
Speaker 3: That the way the term has been kind of banded

396
00:29:09,519 --> 00:29:13,400
around or sorry bad it about in our things is

397
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:18,920
really kind of like how you know, the way people

398
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:24,400
in our thing view aristocracy or nobility is really no

399
00:29:24,519 --> 00:29:29,799
different than how a I don't know how a drug

400
00:29:29,839 --> 00:29:38,440
dealer views wealth. Right, It's there's a term I want

401
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:39,799
to use, but I know this is probably gonna go

402
00:29:39,839 --> 00:29:41,359
on YouTube, so I won't use it.

403
00:29:42,319 --> 00:29:47,559
Speaker 2: But it is. It's n word rich and we have

404
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:54,680
a similar concept of nobility and aristocracy. If we go

405
00:29:54,799 --> 00:30:03,920
back in time, what did men of means of nobility? Well,

406
00:30:04,359 --> 00:30:08,039
they didn't think it was about being better than anybody else. Right,

407
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:14,759
You don't build two thousand churches three thousand churches because

408
00:30:14,799 --> 00:30:19,160
you're better than everybody else. You don't build every public

409
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:24,279
library in the nation because you're better than everybody else.

410
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:29,200
You build them because you want everybody else to be better,

411
00:30:30,799 --> 00:30:36,759
just period better, which means that you wouldn't be so

412
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,920
much better than them. Right, If your whole identity is

413
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:44,400
being better than everybody else, the last thing that you

414
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,759
would want to do is to give.

415
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 3: People the means, people that you viewed beneath you, the

416
00:30:55,599 --> 00:31:05,440
means to self actualization to be better. But in fact,

417
00:31:05,519 --> 00:31:12,599
that is your duty. That's what nobility is really all about.

418
00:31:15,759 --> 00:31:21,839
It's about those four letters. So whether it's go to

419
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,759
North Carolina and help out, I apologize that was.

420
00:31:26,359 --> 00:31:28,119
Speaker 2: Very rude. Up put my phone on silent. I thought

421
00:31:28,119 --> 00:31:30,759
I already did that. It's your duty to go to

422
00:31:30,759 --> 00:31:34,720
North Carolina if you can and help out. It's your

423
00:31:34,759 --> 00:31:39,000
duty to help get one of our guys a job

424
00:31:39,319 --> 00:31:44,200
when he gets docks or laid off. It's your duty

425
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:56,160
to help chip in if some unforeseen and regrettable medical

426
00:31:56,160 --> 00:32:00,720
thing happens to one of our guys or just someone

427
00:32:00,799 --> 00:32:12,440
you know, and they don't have insurance. Like we've shirked

428
00:32:12,519 --> 00:32:13,160
so much.

429
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,279
Speaker 3: Of our duty to our fellow people, and we view

430
00:32:15,319 --> 00:32:18,240
it like, oh, well, you know, some times it's tied

431
00:32:18,319 --> 00:32:21,240
up in like religious things, but.

432
00:32:25,039 --> 00:32:32,240
Speaker 2: It's just it's not like charity can and is part of,

433
00:32:32,559 --> 00:32:36,480
you know, the Christian faith. But that's also just what

434
00:32:36,519 --> 00:32:40,519
you should do. If you look like me and you

435
00:32:40,599 --> 00:32:49,039
look like Pete, that's your responsibility. And I think that's

436
00:32:49,599 --> 00:32:55,000
probably the thing that's the most regrettable out of all

437
00:32:55,000 --> 00:33:00,000
the things that we've lost. I think that one's the worst.

438
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:09,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, the uh, the whole idea of like when we

439
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,920
when we had our event, the Old Glory Club had

440
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:17,839
our event. You know, it's suit, it's jacket inside the

441
00:33:17,839 --> 00:33:23,279
whole time, the whole time. The Old Glory Club here

442
00:33:23,319 --> 00:33:28,640
in Alabama, when we meet, it's at least jacket. And

443
00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:32,200
there's a reason there's Yeah, and there's a reason for that,

444
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:38,119
and I think a lot of people don't don't understand

445
00:33:38,359 --> 00:33:45,599
just exactly how casual and that word has many meanings

446
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:49,119
and it can be taken many ways. We become about

447
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:50,519
the way we carry ourselves.

448
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:54,759
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, how we speak.

449
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 1: Wearing a jacket. Wearing a jacket makes it a lot

450
00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:00,640
easier to to hide a weapon and too.

451
00:34:00,519 --> 00:34:04,799
Speaker 3: So there is you can actually hide a weapon and

452
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:09,079
several reloads. You can get at least a couple of

453
00:34:09,159 --> 00:34:14,480
bags in and probably a pc se depending on how

454
00:34:14,599 --> 00:34:22,320
chunky you are. If anybody is listening that doesn't have

455
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:26,519
the capital for like a nice suit or a nice

456
00:34:26,519 --> 00:34:31,360
suit jacket, I want you to dm me. If you

457
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:34,960
do have the capital and you lie about it to

458
00:34:35,039 --> 00:34:40,199
get some really really really sick you know dress attire,

459
00:34:41,119 --> 00:34:42,639
you'll have to live with that for the rest of

460
00:34:42,679 --> 00:34:44,920
your life. I don't know what that's going to be like,

461
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:46,239
but I can't imagine it's great.

462
00:34:49,639 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 1: So, yeah, well you would you would hope that somebody's

463
00:34:53,519 --> 00:34:55,320
conscience would be uh, would.

464
00:34:55,119 --> 00:34:56,599
Speaker 2: Be clear exactly.

465
00:34:56,639 --> 00:34:59,199
Speaker 1: You would hope that, Yeah, you'd hope we're dealing with

466
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:04,320
quality people here, and I know we are, so let's uh.

467
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:08,039
Speaker 3: Very high quality men. All right, so let's talk a

468
00:35:08,079 --> 00:35:12,840
little bit about the specter of fascism in America.

469
00:35:14,079 --> 00:35:14,639
Speaker 4: Let's do that.

470
00:35:15,119 --> 00:35:22,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, So the organization that the business plot was

471
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:28,000
was done out under, right, like what the official organization

472
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:32,480
was was something called the American Liberty League. And I

473
00:35:32,519 --> 00:35:34,320
know we touched a little bit on that at the

474
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:36,559
end of last episode, and I'm probably gonna have to

475
00:35:36,639 --> 00:35:41,760
do some house cleaning again on the next one. I

476
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:46,599
make broad strokes, So yeah, just salt the taste. But

477
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:51,679
if I were to say right wing fascist and then

478
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:56,480
I were to say Huey Long, would you think those

479
00:35:56,519 --> 00:36:02,239
things are diametrically opposed or simpler?

480
00:36:03,599 --> 00:36:07,639
Speaker 1: I have no. I have no issue with the term

481
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,519
right wing fascist and Huey Long being in the same sense.

482
00:36:11,039 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 2: Well they were, so mister, mister Huey Long was a

483
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:29,159
very avid voe. So this is a this is a

484
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:30,400
this is a bigger thing.

485
00:36:30,519 --> 00:36:35,679
Speaker 5: I think I'm getting this Huey Long and.

486
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:40,800
Speaker 2: And what what his role in this was, but his

487
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:45,440
presence kind of it points to a larger trend about

488
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,719
what was going on or what these men thought was

489
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:56,400
going on, right, because what is fascism? Why does Mussolini's

490
00:36:56,440 --> 00:37:04,280
Italy and how his government functions, and Hitler's Germany and

491
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:09,679
how the Reich functioned, and Franco's Spain and how that

492
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:13,960
government functioned. Right, If I were to try and like

493
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:17,800
draw parallels, I would be I'd be in big trouble,

494
00:37:19,639 --> 00:37:23,480
because if fascism is a type of governance structure, how

495
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:25,440
come all the fascist governments are different?

496
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 4: Right?

497
00:37:29,559 --> 00:37:37,079
Speaker 2: Like if you know Mussolini and Franco are the same thing,

498
00:37:38,519 --> 00:37:38,840
all right?

499
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 3: Like how maose Dung and you know Stalin are supposedly

500
00:37:44,599 --> 00:37:47,400
are the same thing. They're both communists, right, well, their

501
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:52,480
governments function almost identically. Then you have the same names

502
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:58,360
for the same shit. But I'd be hard pressed to

503
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:03,280
find really a parallels between any of the so called

504
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:07,679
fascist nations. The only parallel that I can find, The

505
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:12,119
only commonality between any of them, all of them is

506
00:38:12,159 --> 00:38:19,559
that they came about as an immune response to communist revolution.

507
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:27,360
That's the only commonality they have. That their nations were

508
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:35,320
undergoing a communist revolution, and these were the men that

509
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:39,079
were organized and capable of fighting against it and pushing

510
00:38:39,119 --> 00:38:44,239
back against it to protect their a their nation and

511
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:51,280
b all of the citizens in there, even the reluctant

512
00:38:51,320 --> 00:39:01,119
lefty ones, that's the only commonality. So is the US

513
00:39:01,519 --> 00:39:07,400
and the attempted fascism? Is that any different? And I

514
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:14,239
would argue, no, it's not. And we joke about what

515
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,880
was you know, we joke about FDR, we joke about

516
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:19,239
the New Deal. We've got a million comedy jokes. And

517
00:39:19,639 --> 00:39:22,239
the Venona Cables proved that there were, in fact a

518
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:25,920
lot of commies in the Roosevelt government and many of

519
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:31,079
the governments subsequent. But what are the men at the

520
00:39:31,159 --> 00:39:39,159
time think and why were they so scared? Because they

521
00:39:39,159 --> 00:39:43,400
were scared of something right or else?

522
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:51,800
Speaker 2: Huey Long John J. Braskin, the founder and chairman of

523
00:39:51,880 --> 00:40:00,000
General Motors, a long time Democrat and DNC supporter, right believe,

524
00:40:00,039 --> 00:40:04,519
at one time he was co chair of the DNC.

525
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:10,360
He actually was head of the committee that got FDR elected.

526
00:40:12,159 --> 00:40:15,760
So what the fuck is he doing in the American

527
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:21,400
Liberty League and why is he so scared about what's

528
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:28,159
happening with FDR? Or what about Al Smith? Al Smith's

529
00:40:28,159 --> 00:40:31,960
a very interesting man. He was the chairman of the

530
00:40:32,039 --> 00:40:39,239
DNC at the time that FDR got elected, Right, he

531
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:45,840
was actually the Democrat candidate for president the election cycle. Priger,

532
00:40:47,079 --> 00:40:56,119
like you couldn't get more on the same team as FDR.

533
00:40:56,760 --> 00:41:07,199
But somehow now John J. Raskin and Al Smith longtime

534
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:09,960
Governor of New York and chairman of the Democrat Party,

535
00:41:12,079 --> 00:41:18,000
and these guys and Huey Long are on the same

536
00:41:18,159 --> 00:41:25,960
team as Ire DuPont and Pierre DuPont Iron DuPont. I mean,

537
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:33,840
this guy funded every extremist right wing political movement in

538
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,159
America his entire lifetime.

539
00:41:36,199 --> 00:41:43,559
Speaker 3: Since he was like fourteen. He's basically the polar opposite

540
00:41:44,119 --> 00:41:46,320
to John Raskin and Al Smith.

541
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:55,480
Speaker 2: And and Huey Long. Huey Long got famous for fighting

542
00:41:55,519 --> 00:42:00,159
Standard Oil and taking a percentage of those oil profits

543
00:42:00,519 --> 00:42:05,480
at the great State of Louisiana was making and giving

544
00:42:05,519 --> 00:42:11,679
it to some of the people in Louisiana. Right Standard

545
00:42:11,679 --> 00:42:19,000
Oil tried sending people to beat him into a coma

546
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,280
or kill him. I don't think I actually kill him,

547
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:28,760
but you know, beat the hell out of him. And

548
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:32,039
he fought Standard Oil for years like he was enemy

549
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:37,880
number one on John Rockefeller's list for better part of

550
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:45,800
half a decade. So why is Hute Long on the

551
00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:47,639
American Liberty League.

552
00:42:49,559 --> 00:42:50,039
Speaker 4: With John D.

553
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 5: Rockefeller? I thought that was very old. So the Rockefeller boys.

554
00:42:56,079 --> 00:43:00,000
At this point he was either he had either just passed,

555
00:43:00,039 --> 00:43:03,519
but the Rockefeller boys. I don't want to have to

556
00:43:03,519 --> 00:43:04,880
do more house cleaning next time.

557
00:43:07,199 --> 00:43:07,480
Speaker 4: All right?

558
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:12,519
Speaker 2: Why are these men? Why is John Raskin on the

559
00:43:12,519 --> 00:43:16,960
same team as Henry Ford and Pierpont Morgan?

560
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:17,599
Speaker 4: Again?

561
00:43:17,639 --> 00:43:21,760
Speaker 2: Why is the chairman of General Motors on the same

562
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:26,440
team as the founder chairman of Ford? What were these

563
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:31,039
men asfraid of? Because they were afraid of something? Because

564
00:43:32,079 --> 00:43:37,039
outside of the American Liberty League, these men, I would

565
00:43:37,119 --> 00:43:41,079
be surprised if the two, if any of them bumped

566
00:43:41,119 --> 00:43:44,239
into each other on the street, a fight would ensue.

567
00:43:45,199 --> 00:43:50,280
With Huey Long, I'd guarantee it. So what made these

568
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:57,880
men come together? And there is a speech that Pete

569
00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:02,639
I sent you this morning that I came across that

570
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:11,440
just kind of I'm gonna read the last couple of pages,

571
00:44:11,639 --> 00:44:14,519
or sorry, the last couple of paragraphs. They're short.

572
00:44:16,639 --> 00:44:36,800
Speaker 4: All right, all right, here we go, Here we go. Now.

573
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:40,360
Speaker 2: In conclusion, let me give this solemn warning. There can

574
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:45,679
be one capital. It is either Washington or Moscow. There

575
00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:52,079
can be only one atmosphere of government, the clear, the pure,

576
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:57,400
the fresh, free air of America, or the foul breadth

577
00:44:57,599 --> 00:45:03,199
of Communist Russia. There can be only one flag, the

578
00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:08,079
Stars and the stripes or the red flag of the

579
00:45:08,119 --> 00:45:18,440
godless Soviet Union. There can be only one national anthemy

580
00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:23,400
the star spangled banner or the internationale. And there can

581
00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:30,039
be only one victor. If the Constitution wins, we win.

582
00:45:32,639 --> 00:45:41,519
But if the constitution stop, damn, he's really good. Stop

583
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:52,639
stop there. The Constitution can't lose. The fact is it

584
00:45:52,679 --> 00:46:02,079
has already won, but the news has not reached certain years.

585
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:14,000
And this was from the first meaning of the American

586
00:46:14,039 --> 00:46:15,880
Liberty League in nineteen thirty two.

587
00:46:21,599 --> 00:46:30,360
Speaker 5: This is from I found this in.

588
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:31,840
Speaker 3: A cycle teaching American history. It's like a progressive like

589
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:35,679
I guess if you're one of some progressive college, like

590
00:46:36,039 --> 00:46:37,920
for a law degree, like this is where you go

591
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:42,280
for additional resources. But here's the study questions. In what

592
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:49,639
way does Smith believe that the Democrat sort of the

593
00:46:49,639 --> 00:46:53,199
Democratic administration he helped put into office as the chair

594
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:56,320
of the DNC has not been faithful to the Democrat

595
00:46:56,400 --> 00:47:00,519
Party's platform of nineteen thirty two. Why does he think

596
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:11,000
the New Deal is somehow Russian Bolshevism and in league

597
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:15,559
with the Soviet Union? And what is he calling his

598
00:47:15,679 --> 00:47:22,679
fellow Democrats and Republicans to do That's a study question.

599
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:29,159
I mean, anybody that needs as a study question just

600
00:47:29,159 --> 00:47:31,639
read what I read. I don't know if that's a

601
00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:34,800
question to you. I don't think you've got a very

602
00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:40,039
prominent career in law I had. And what does Smith's

603
00:47:40,119 --> 00:47:44,960
critique of the New Deal compared to that of Herbert

604
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:50,960
Hoover in his speech this challenge to liberty? And how

605
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:55,760
does it compare to the criticisms of one Huey Long

606
00:47:56,480 --> 00:48:02,360
in his speech The statement on the Share of Our

607
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:11,840
Wealth Society and Father Coughland a Third Party A Challenge

608
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:14,639
to Liberty by Hoover was written to ninth It was

609
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:19,639
given in nineteen thirty six. Huey Long's speech December of

610
00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:24,880
nineteen thirty five and Father Coughland's a third Party in

611
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:26,159
nineteen thirty six.

612
00:48:27,119 --> 00:48:33,360
Speaker 2: What the fuck does Al Smith, a Catholic and an Irishman,

613
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:40,719
the chairman of the Democratic National Committee, former Democratic presidential

614
00:48:41,079 --> 00:48:59,480
candidate Herbert Hoover, the previous president Republican Huey Long, like

615
00:49:00,119 --> 00:49:02,760
Huey Long is just Huey Long. He's like you can't

616
00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:05,280
even call him like a member of a party like

617
00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:09,599
he was a political force in and of himself, and

618
00:49:09,639 --> 00:49:13,559
he ran the state of Louisiana that way, What is

619
00:49:13,599 --> 00:49:22,239
Seewey Long, Al Smith, Herbert Hoover, and father Coughlin have

620
00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:27,840
in common? Your father Coughlan really?

621
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:35,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, you gotta know, Yeah, yeah, strange bedfellows, right, I

622
00:49:35,039 --> 00:49:38,880
mean it's very It's a good question, and you know,

623
00:49:39,119 --> 00:49:43,840
I think maybe even a better question at this point is, well,

624
00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:46,559
what why don't we learn about this in school?

625
00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:48,320
Speaker 4: Right? Like this?

626
00:49:48,519 --> 00:49:51,559
Speaker 2: I mean you want to talk about bipartisanship, right, Like,

627
00:49:51,559 --> 00:49:54,079
if this isn't a guy, this isn't unity, I don't

628
00:49:54,119 --> 00:50:03,760
know what is and what force was so strong that

629
00:50:06,159 --> 00:50:21,920
Jack Morgan, net Rockefeller, John Braskin Irie and Pierre DuPont,

630
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:34,000
Al Smith, Huey Long, Father Conklin, Henry Ford? Like what's

631
00:50:34,039 --> 00:50:37,480
more powerful than that? Yes?

632
00:50:37,599 --> 00:50:40,519
Speaker 1: When you have when you have the head yeah, when

633
00:50:40,519 --> 00:50:42,159
you have the head of Ford Motor Company and the

634
00:50:42,159 --> 00:50:48,159
head of GM coming together to agree on something, yes, yep.

635
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:52,519
And this wasn't them coming together to be a plot

636
00:50:52,559 --> 00:50:56,400
to be like, oh yeah, let's let's corner the market

637
00:50:56,519 --> 00:51:00,440
on this and everything. No matter what Tucker wanted to say,

638
00:51:00,639 --> 00:51:04,400
you know, ten years after this fifteen years after this,

639
00:51:04,119 --> 00:51:07,639
Now this was something different. This was something different.

640
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:15,440
Speaker 5: Where's my ancient Greek history, bros. Right now, because I'm

641
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:17,320
pretty sure this is exactly what all the Greek city

642
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:19,719
states had to do. They did to take a break

643
00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:23,719
from killing each other when Xerxites showed up.

644
00:51:25,599 --> 00:51:31,159
Speaker 1: Go ahead, Pete, Sorry, well I was going to say.

645
00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:42,119
When obviously, when you look at this, you realize that

646
00:51:42,199 --> 00:51:46,280
this is a movement that the people who they were

647
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:51,000
going against realized had power, had money behind it, had

648
00:51:51,039 --> 00:51:55,960
influence behind it. And then you you, well, what's one

649
00:51:56,039 --> 00:52:02,119
way to just put a bullet in this. Well, we've

650
00:52:02,119 --> 00:52:05,320
been attacked, we have to go to war. If you

651
00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:09,039
don't all come together. Now, well you're I guess you're

652
00:52:09,079 --> 00:52:11,599
anti American. I guess you're on the side. I guess

653
00:52:11,599 --> 00:52:13,440
you're on the side of the Japanese, or you're on

654
00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:16,360
the side you're on the side of the Germans. And well,

655
00:52:16,639 --> 00:52:19,320
well you know, or they could have said you're on

656
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:21,760
the side of the Soviets. But no, they took the

657
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:25,159
side of the Soviets. But now how to start Not

658
00:52:25,199 --> 00:52:29,519
only he has to start at two theater war, you

659
00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:33,360
just have two wars going on, just to stop this

660
00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:37,480
and just to shut them up. And then after the war,

661
00:52:39,159 --> 00:52:42,039
what do you have? You have the greatest propaganda campaign

662
00:52:42,559 --> 00:52:48,360
of all time, which basically makes these men criminals monsters.

663
00:52:50,039 --> 00:52:59,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, like, if you think that these men were anything

664
00:52:59,559 --> 00:53:04,440
like that, they how they were portrayed, just monster capitalists

665
00:53:04,559 --> 00:53:10,960
that only cared about money. You don't know anything about money.

666
00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:24,599
I'm not saying that I do. But I have led

667
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:29,280
a rather charmed life so far. I could get hit

668
00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:33,320
by a bus tomorrow, so I'm going to add that

669
00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:39,039
caveat in there, and I wouldn't be angry if I did.

670
00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:45,559
But one thing, I have been able to observe both

671
00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:50,880
a change in myself as I became more successful, and

672
00:53:50,960 --> 00:53:59,239
also from observing those who had more success than one

673
00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:06,760
person could could possibly ask God for and not feel

674
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:15,039
like they were sitting those people. People that have money

675
00:54:15,079 --> 00:54:18,199
that can't be spent right, if you have let's say,

676
00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:26,239
fifty billion dollars right and a reasonable reasonable rate of return.

677
00:54:27,480 --> 00:54:31,639
And this is what lefties don't understand about money is

678
00:54:31,679 --> 00:54:36,679
how interest works. And so let's say we have fifty

679
00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:43,480
billion dollars one two three mm hmm, I have a million,

680
00:54:43,679 --> 00:54:59,039
one two three, five billion times point one two three.

681
00:55:02,079 --> 00:55:08,000
So if you have fifty billion, let's say the first year,

682
00:55:08,639 --> 00:55:12,639
you act like an absolute maniac. You don't just buy

683
00:55:12,679 --> 00:55:16,639
one jet, you buy three. I had one hundred and

684
00:55:16,639 --> 00:55:24,000
fifty million a pop, sometimes more, depending they started one

685
00:55:24,079 --> 00:55:31,639
hundred and fifty and you buy not one house, but

686
00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:38,960
you buy five, one in every place you like coming right,

687
00:55:39,079 --> 00:55:44,199
one for every season, plus a bonus one maybe, and

688
00:55:44,559 --> 00:55:49,639
you buy palatial estates, say thirty to fifty million. Right,

689
00:55:49,639 --> 00:55:51,800
So what is that I'm up to three four and

690
00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:57,199
a half. So four hundred and fifty million plus another

691
00:55:57,199 --> 00:56:00,679
one hundred million in five houses where I might like

692
00:56:01,079 --> 00:56:02,559
five hundred and fifty million.

693
00:56:04,159 --> 00:56:04,480
Speaker 4: What else?

694
00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:07,239
Speaker 2: What else do we need to buy? What could you

695
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:12,360
possibly think of? Maybe a yat a mega yacht? You

696
00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:17,719
want mega yacht? Okay, let's say, yeah, I don't like

697
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:20,960
boats on that much. I'm I'm a very bad WASP.

698
00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:24,440
Speaker 5: I don't I don't go sailing, I don't know how

699
00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:28,239
to sale, and I'm terrible at golf. So like all

700
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:31,639
of my WASP credentials, like, it's a good thing. I'm

701
00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:35,039
very well read and I speak well because all of

702
00:56:35,079 --> 00:56:39,079
my all of my other WASP credentials like it's pretty rough.

703
00:56:42,679 --> 00:56:44,920
Say you buy another, but you buy a megabout one

704
00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:49,119
hundred and fifty million, which I think is roughly what

705
00:56:49,519 --> 00:56:52,440
Bezos spent on a Now I spent two hundred million.

706
00:56:52,639 --> 00:56:55,920
Speaker 2: Let's just say two hundred million. Fuck it, we're only

707
00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:59,079
seven hundred and fifty million in. We haven't even cracked

708
00:56:59,079 --> 00:57:03,920
our first billion yet. We haven't even cracked a billion

709
00:57:04,039 --> 00:57:10,360
dollars yet. So that fifty billion dollars that earns an

710
00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:15,320
interest every year at a reasonable rate of return ten percent.

711
00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:21,360
I mean, honestly, ultra low risk probably do pull five percent,

712
00:57:21,519 --> 00:57:23,320
but you're gonna have to pull ten now because you're

713
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:28,719
losing five to inflation. Sorry, buds. That's five hundred million

714
00:57:28,760 --> 00:57:36,159
a year. So the crazy spending spree that we just

715
00:57:36,239 --> 00:57:40,599
talked about, you would have to do that every year.

716
00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:46,920
You can't, You couldn't.

717
00:57:49,079 --> 00:57:51,920
Speaker 5: It would take you, you know, weeks and weeks and

718
00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:56,000
weeks just to pick out the different lethers on one

719
00:57:56,039 --> 00:58:01,000
of the planes, let alone three. Right, you're like three

720
00:58:01,039 --> 00:58:09,440
months in just inspecting jets, not even including the you know,

721
00:58:09,639 --> 00:58:13,360
the homes than the boat, got the fucking boat. Every

722
00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:16,480
single thing I think you you know, you see and

723
00:58:16,679 --> 00:58:19,199
or touch on a boat you get to pick like,

724
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:22,920
you couldn't spend the money fast enough, So you are

725
00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:26,760
earning more money than it is humanly possible to spend,

726
00:58:27,639 --> 00:58:32,480
and you're not even touching the principle, right, So that

727
00:58:32,559 --> 00:58:37,639
fifty million or fifty billion is never getting spent. And

728
00:58:37,719 --> 00:58:40,920
if you spent, it would take every day of your

729
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:44,000
life to do nothing but try and figure out new ways,

730
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:49,280
creative ways to spend money, and you still wouldn't even

731
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:51,519
be able to burn through half a billion a year.

732
00:58:52,079 --> 00:58:57,639
Speaker 2: Good God, So these people to think that these people

733
00:58:57,760 --> 00:59:02,760
care about money, do things for money, even talk about

734
00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:08,920
money any there's a good rule. My dad taught it

735
00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:13,280
to me, and hopefully, God willing, I will teach you

736
00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:15,679
to my son, because it served me very well in life.

737
00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:23,960
Anybody that talks about money doesn't fucking have any So

738
00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:28,440
to think that any of these men did anything because

739
00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:36,360
of money to make more money, you simply don't understand wealth.

740
00:59:39,519 --> 00:59:44,440
What motivates these men? If I could think of any

741
00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:54,920
remotely tangential i'm sorry, tangential motivator that had anything to

742
00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:59,440
do with money would be capital preservation, right, you could

743
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:03,039
probably get these guys to do stuff to protect what

744
01:00:03,079 --> 01:00:06,360
they already have. But if you think that they're going

745
01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:10,599
to do, you know, political machinations that could end them

746
01:00:10,679 --> 01:00:14,840
up in them in jail or hurt their legacy, tarnish

747
01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:20,719
their reputation. These men valued reputation and standing far more

748
01:00:20,719 --> 01:00:24,559
than they valued money, and so would you. I know

749
01:00:24,599 --> 01:00:30,079
it sounds ridiculous. It sounds ridiculous to you. But if

750
01:00:30,119 --> 01:00:33,320
you're the guy that is in you know, in that

751
01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:37,199
hypothetical situation that I had to fucking pull out my

752
01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:43,559
calculator for because I'm retarded, if you're that guy, he

753
01:00:43,599 --> 01:00:46,960
doesn't care about money. He probably cares a hell of

754
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:52,400
a lot more about what people think of him, how

755
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:57,280
he's perceived, than some investment or a chance to make

756
01:00:57,400 --> 01:01:02,480
more money that what he can't spend. So when you

757
01:01:02,519 --> 01:01:08,519
look at these guys like Elon Right and recent Fiel,

758
01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:17,360
you think money motivates them, you're nuts. You don't understand money. Granted,

759
01:01:18,079 --> 01:01:19,760
I wish that they would take a page out of

760
01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:23,840
the book of the great men that came before them,

761
01:01:24,199 --> 01:01:28,559
because now all they are is just nerds with money.

762
01:01:28,760 --> 01:01:30,119
That makes me sad.

763
01:01:32,239 --> 01:01:36,480
Speaker 5: You know, Elon wants to go to Mars because he

764
01:01:36,519 --> 01:01:40,159
wants to go to Mars not because he wants humanity

765
01:01:40,199 --> 01:01:44,519
to be a space faring nation, right, or America, you know,

766
01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:51,679
to dominate Mars as our next like he that is tertiary.

767
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:56,320
Speaker 2: Maybe he wants to go to space because Elon Musk

768
01:01:56,360 --> 01:02:01,920
wants to go to space. So the one thing that

769
01:02:02,039 --> 01:02:11,199
I wish that are rich nerds would look back in

770
01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:15,199
time and see, and I understand why they haven't because

771
01:02:15,239 --> 01:02:18,000
the history of these men, what these men were really like,

772
01:02:18,360 --> 01:02:22,480
has been hidden. The only reason I know about it

773
01:02:22,519 --> 01:02:27,679
is because these are family stories, right, Like Pete, you

774
01:02:27,719 --> 01:02:32,599
know a bit about me in my private life. This

775
01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:35,559
is relevant to me, and that's why I know it.

776
01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:40,239
So I can't get angry at anybody for not knowing

777
01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:42,480
what these men were actually like when everything that's written

778
01:02:42,519 --> 01:02:48,840
about them is a fucking lie. But now that we're

779
01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:52,760
starting to clear up the record, right, looking back with

780
01:02:53,119 --> 01:02:59,400
clear eyes and sound judgment and a level of discernment

781
01:02:59,679 --> 01:03:08,519
that did not previously have until certain ethnocentric machinations were

782
01:03:08,559 --> 01:03:12,239
revealed to us. However, I mean, we each got here

783
01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:20,519
different ways, but now that we have, we need to

784
01:03:20,559 --> 01:03:22,960
hold our relief to a higher standard. Because if you

785
01:03:23,039 --> 01:03:31,639
have fifty billion dollars, it's not about you anymore. Right

786
01:03:31,679 --> 01:03:38,039
back to that four letter word, that is the founding,

787
01:03:38,639 --> 01:03:44,480
the central pillar of our society. Right, we live in

788
01:03:44,559 --> 01:03:48,920
the house built for us by better men. We just

789
01:03:48,960 --> 01:03:54,159
fucking live here. We didn't build it, they did. We

790
01:03:54,320 --> 01:03:57,719
just get to hang out in it and stop people

791
01:03:57,719 --> 01:04:02,719
from tearing it down. But when we compare ourselves to them,

792
01:04:03,519 --> 01:04:11,440
these men, our elites don't stack up that great. Our

793
01:04:11,559 --> 01:04:16,800
rich men are just rich men, and that's sad. So

794
01:04:16,920 --> 01:04:24,719
I hope that they familiarize themselves with these great men

795
01:04:24,760 --> 01:04:35,079
who've been slandered to just an insane degree. And how

796
01:04:35,159 --> 01:04:37,360
much they've been slandered should tell you a lot about

797
01:04:37,360 --> 01:04:42,360
how great they were. I don't want Musk to build

798
01:04:43,639 --> 01:04:46,519
a public library in every town like Andrew Carnegie did.

799
01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:55,639
I don't want Peter Thiol to build twenty five hundred

800
01:04:55,719 --> 01:05:04,000
churches in every city in America, because that's already been done.

801
01:05:04,639 --> 01:05:10,280
But I want them to look.

802
01:05:12,119 --> 01:05:15,360
Speaker 5: Sorry, I suck at swallowing today, I want them to

803
01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:20,960
look at these men for inspiration to do something different.

804
01:05:23,480 --> 01:05:28,639
Speaker 2: Dare I say better? It'll be hard to do, you know,

805
01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:36,480
one up of these guys, but it's a worthy pursuit,

806
01:05:39,239 --> 01:05:42,480
and I bet you America in the state it is now.

807
01:05:42,519 --> 01:05:46,119
If you look at how it's embraced Donald Trump, we

808
01:05:46,199 --> 01:05:54,119
are desperate, Like desperate doesn't like it. It almost isn't

809
01:05:54,199 --> 01:05:57,360
like a strong enough word. But we are desperate for nobility.

810
01:05:59,199 --> 01:06:01,360
And if you look back in the time that this

811
01:06:01,519 --> 01:06:06,360
was happening, America loved these men. Right, you can be

812
01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:10,159
a rich nerd cool like nobody knows you. This is

813
01:06:10,159 --> 01:06:14,840
why you're scared of dying. You're throwing millions and millions

814
01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:18,239
and millions of dollars into biotech research to squeeze days

815
01:06:18,280 --> 01:06:27,400
and days more life because you're scared of dying. All right,

816
01:06:30,599 --> 01:06:35,039
if you know you're going to be remembered and loved

817
01:06:36,719 --> 01:06:38,840
for what, Like it's two hundred years almost, and we're

818
01:06:38,840 --> 01:06:40,639
still talking about one hundred years and we're sti talking

819
01:06:40,679 --> 01:06:42,599
to these men. We'll be talking about for another hundred more.

820
01:06:47,119 --> 01:06:51,920
Like you're immortal. You don't have to be like that

821
01:06:52,039 --> 01:06:55,920
guy who's sticking his dick in a freezer. All right,

822
01:06:55,960 --> 01:07:01,719
whatever his name is, something Johnson a fitting name, right

823
01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:05,480
for a guy trying to reverse his age, fucking Hubris

824
01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:10,280
the Pride, But really all it is is just he's

825
01:07:10,320 --> 01:07:17,239
scared of dying. Probably because he's going to have to

826
01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:21,760
meet God, and when that happens, he's going to have

827
01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:24,199
to tell him what he did with the most precious

828
01:07:24,199 --> 01:07:27,480
gift that he was given, and he won't have much

829
01:07:27,519 --> 01:07:31,199
to say.

830
01:07:31,239 --> 01:07:36,119
Speaker 1: This is this is part of the reason, and a

831
01:07:36,159 --> 01:07:39,480
lot of the reason, I would say, probably if you

832
01:07:39,559 --> 01:07:41,360
really want to look back on at the majority of

833
01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:45,199
the reason that you're not allowed to live historically anymore.

834
01:07:46,639 --> 01:07:49,519
Thank you you're not allowed sort of. I mean, if

835
01:07:49,519 --> 01:07:56,519
you're not allowed to, if you're dissuaded, if you're told

836
01:07:56,920 --> 01:08:01,159
it's wrong to look upon your end ancestors and have

837
01:08:01,280 --> 01:08:05,639
pride in them and know and celebrate their accomplishments, how

838
01:08:05,719 --> 01:08:11,039
much less the accomplishments of people you don't know. So

839
01:08:11,280 --> 01:08:16,239
it's just a it's just another mechanism for destroying our

840
01:08:16,319 --> 01:08:21,079
civilization and destroying what came before us, making us believe

841
01:08:21,159 --> 01:08:24,880
that everything that happened back at this time, Oh, this

842
01:08:25,039 --> 01:08:27,119
was such a terrible time to live. There were these

843
01:08:27,159 --> 01:08:29,680
people who all they wanted to do was get rich,

844
01:08:29,720 --> 01:08:33,439
and they would do they would do anything to gain

845
01:08:33,840 --> 01:08:37,000
to gain wealth and gain power. And then when you

846
01:08:37,039 --> 01:08:40,359
look and you find out that they saw what was

847
01:08:40,399 --> 01:08:44,000
coming down the line. They saw, you know, the takeover

848
01:08:45,399 --> 01:08:50,960
by a foreign entity, and they tried to do everything

849
01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:54,239
they could to stop it. And it was only because

850
01:08:54,319 --> 01:09:02,319
of you know, a soldier who yeah, killed Haitians and

851
01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:07,039
you know actually in the field, served his country well

852
01:09:07,600 --> 01:09:11,119
from everything I've read, But when it came down to it,

853
01:09:11,199 --> 01:09:15,720
he was a fucking comy. Yeah, and he decided with

854
01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:16,359
the commis.

855
01:09:16,720 --> 01:09:19,680
Speaker 2: You know what's funny is that a rare bit of

856
01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:23,920
justice was served. He lived to regret it, he lived

857
01:09:23,920 --> 01:09:27,199
to see it. The thing that Smithley Butler was so

858
01:09:27,319 --> 01:09:33,840
desperately afraid of was World War One happening again. And

859
01:09:33,880 --> 01:09:40,760
the very man that he betrayed to FDR we're trying

860
01:09:40,760 --> 01:09:43,560
to stop the thing that he was so afraid of,

861
01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:49,520
and he sacrificed all those men. Right, what happened to

862
01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:54,760
Father Coughlin, What happened to Henry Ford?

863
01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:55,760
Speaker 4: Right?

864
01:09:55,840 --> 01:10:02,199
Speaker 2: These men were killed, right, just like the guy freezing

865
01:10:02,239 --> 01:10:06,720
his dick off right now, he's scared of dying because

866
01:10:06,760 --> 01:10:12,199
he doesn't have a legacy, right, He's never going to

867
01:10:12,279 --> 01:10:19,439
have immortality. So they killed these men's memories off, which

868
01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:21,359
I think is far works.

869
01:10:23,640 --> 01:10:26,560
Speaker 1: And here we long, and here we long. They killed, Yeah,

870
01:10:26,600 --> 01:10:31,520
they assassinated a tribesman. A tribesman assassinated him.

871
01:10:32,720 --> 01:10:37,239
Speaker 2: There's a Without talking myself, I think I've told you this, Pepe,

872
01:10:37,239 --> 01:10:43,520
but there is a very widely shared suspicion and rumor

873
01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:47,600
in my family that a similar man, at a similar

874
01:10:47,600 --> 01:10:54,479
time and a similar mission was also killed. There's a

875
01:10:54,479 --> 01:10:57,720
lot of killing. I think that was done in the

876
01:10:57,800 --> 01:10:59,880
lead up to World War two to make it happen.

877
01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:05,319
I think it's no different than what we saw in

878
01:11:05,359 --> 01:11:09,600
the sixties. Right, if these people are willing to kill

879
01:11:09,760 --> 01:11:16,039
to keep that little place, we have to assume that

880
01:11:16,079 --> 01:11:22,520
they were willing to kill to get it. And Smedley

881
01:11:22,560 --> 01:11:29,399
Butler got to live long enough to try and give

882
01:11:29,479 --> 01:11:37,119
speeches against FDR once the man did what he because remember,

883
01:11:37,239 --> 01:11:41,119
like FDR was campaigning on not taking just like fucking

884
01:11:41,159 --> 01:11:47,479
Wilson campaigning on what was Wilson's campaign speech, I will

885
01:11:47,479 --> 01:11:51,359
not be sending our or his campaign slogan like well,

886
01:11:51,520 --> 01:11:55,000
I won't be sending our boys off to some war.

887
01:11:56,439 --> 01:11:56,600
Speaker 4: Right.

888
01:11:56,960 --> 01:12:00,840
Speaker 2: His his re election thing was Wilson. He kept us

889
01:12:00,840 --> 01:12:07,000
out of war for his first term. But what he

890
01:12:07,039 --> 01:12:09,199
didn't tell everybody is that he was already planning getting

891
01:12:09,279 --> 01:12:14,000
us into it. He just needed his second term, and

892
01:12:14,039 --> 01:12:18,119
that's what FDR did. So the man that Smedley Butler.

893
01:12:19,359 --> 01:12:29,760
Speaker 3: Saved, all right, and betrayed men that trusted him.

894
01:12:26,960 --> 01:12:32,479
Speaker 2: He saved because he'd bought that FDR actually wanted to

895
01:12:32,560 --> 01:12:36,720
keep us out of war. And less than two years

896
01:12:36,720 --> 01:12:39,359
after he did it, after he betrayed all these men,

897
01:12:39,439 --> 01:12:41,479
he lived to see that they were right and that

898
01:12:41,520 --> 01:12:45,319
he was wrong. So I don't know what Smedley Butler's

899
01:12:45,359 --> 01:12:50,680
death was like, but I can't imagine it was good

900
01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:56,760
because I believe, like at the point that you're dying,

901
01:12:58,560 --> 01:13:05,640
right as as that's happening, kind of the veil things

902
01:13:06,920 --> 01:13:12,159
between our world and theirs. And from what I've heard,

903
01:13:12,600 --> 01:13:20,079
from what I've read and accounts that how a man

904
01:13:20,319 --> 01:13:25,399
like you know, if a man lives a certain way,

905
01:13:25,760 --> 01:13:31,199
when he dies, you know his flesh will be will

906
01:13:31,439 --> 01:13:35,800
begin to be clawed at before he actually passes. This

907
01:13:35,880 --> 01:13:41,960
is why some men die screaming. And if you live

908
01:13:41,960 --> 01:13:47,079
a different way, that doesn't happen to you. In fact,

909
01:13:47,079 --> 01:13:51,319
the opposite happens to you. There are those that die

910
01:13:51,319 --> 01:14:01,239
smiling and calm and happy, content And I don't think

911
01:14:01,479 --> 01:14:07,920
he was content when he died because hundreds of thousands

912
01:14:08,319 --> 01:14:14,960
of American boys were being turned into mulch because of him.

913
01:14:18,199 --> 01:14:26,039
America would never be the same again. It would be

914
01:14:30,479 --> 01:14:32,720
I don't know, trying to think of a better word

915
01:14:32,760 --> 01:14:37,119
than you know, like the body snatchers. But that's what

916
01:14:37,239 --> 01:14:43,600
happened all because of him. And it was pride if

917
01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:50,560
you read, and encourage everyone to After Smithley Butler gave

918
01:14:50,600 --> 01:14:59,199
his testimony to the Senate, he did a public announcement

919
01:14:59,279 --> 01:15:01,600
kind of like Rose of else, fireside chat, the TV

920
01:15:01,720 --> 01:15:09,000
and the radio was just like a thing and it's recorded.

921
01:15:09,079 --> 01:15:12,680
It's really good at least the recording quality this is

922
01:15:12,760 --> 01:15:21,920
really good. And you basically see this man so proud

923
01:15:21,960 --> 01:15:25,640
of himself for what he did, and like you could

924
01:15:25,680 --> 01:15:28,439
just you could just see this man this he was

925
01:15:28,800 --> 01:15:32,960
fucking smug, like I did this because I'm a great

926
01:15:32,960 --> 01:15:35,880
American and da da da da da da da da dah.

927
01:15:35,920 --> 01:15:38,359
It just smacks of pride. It's it's really kind of

928
01:15:38,359 --> 01:15:46,159
painful to watch. And anyways, he thought that it was

929
01:15:46,159 --> 01:15:50,159
his you know, he was saving the country by turning

930
01:15:50,159 --> 01:15:52,239
in these traders. It was like, you know, it all

931
01:15:52,359 --> 01:15:55,640
hinged on him. It turns out he was the one

932
01:15:55,640 --> 01:16:00,520
that handed the country over two monsters, the answers that

933
01:16:00,600 --> 01:16:05,159
these men were terrified of enough to where they would

934
01:16:05,199 --> 01:16:12,680
reach out to their sworn enemies, and their sworn enemies

935
01:16:12,680 --> 01:16:17,840
would reach out to them, and they would come together

936
01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:20,319
to try and fight it. And he was too fucking

937
01:16:20,399 --> 01:16:25,600
stupid to ever think. Because before he did turn them in,

938
01:16:25,920 --> 01:16:30,560
he before he did go public, he did spend probably

939
01:16:30,560 --> 01:16:32,960
the last six months before he brought the like, he

940
01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:35,920
even brought in like a journalist's rent to document it,

941
01:16:36,760 --> 01:16:42,159
you know, these meetings, because he needed an extra credibility.

942
01:16:42,159 --> 01:16:43,960
He thought nobody was going to believe him. He was

943
01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:49,800
literally planning like his book tour. Basically, he brought a

944
01:16:49,800 --> 01:16:54,600
writer along with him to document, you know, his detective

945
01:16:54,680 --> 01:16:57,319
work in finding out who all of these people were.

946
01:16:58,199 --> 01:17:00,560
You know, he literally thought he was you know, James

947
01:17:00,560 --> 01:17:05,640
Bond hadn't been invented yet. But anyways, that's the guy,

948
01:17:05,800 --> 01:17:11,039
and so many of our I wouldn't say our guys entirely,

949
01:17:11,079 --> 01:17:15,600
but I do see it occasionally glorify this man. They

950
01:17:15,600 --> 01:17:19,399
all go around talking about, you know, war is a racket,

951
01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:26,000
No war is a diversion. In this instance, all right,

952
01:17:26,119 --> 01:17:32,960
Smedley Butler didn't see the racket. He was the useful idiot.

953
01:17:33,720 --> 01:17:41,399
So I don't want a man with that just deficit

954
01:17:41,439 --> 01:17:44,560
of judgment to tell me what is a racket and

955
01:17:44,600 --> 01:17:48,239
what is not, because he clearly can't see one when

956
01:17:48,239 --> 01:17:51,520
one is staring him in the face. So I don't

957
01:17:51,560 --> 01:17:54,159
think Smedley Butler is qualified to tell any of us

958
01:17:54,840 --> 01:18:02,600
anything except I guess had to blindly betray your country

959
01:18:03,760 --> 01:18:15,159
and sentence the nation's progenity for three generations to vampirism.

960
01:18:19,439 --> 01:18:26,079
Because that's what happened after these guys were gone. Nobody,

961
01:18:26,600 --> 01:18:33,359
no rich men built any more churches, no one built

962
01:18:33,359 --> 01:18:38,640
public libraries anymore. The whole concept of a public library

963
01:18:39,479 --> 01:18:45,159
didn't exist. Like there were university libraries that sometimes people

964
01:18:45,279 --> 01:18:51,960
regular people could go to. But the idea of a

965
01:18:52,039 --> 01:18:55,640
library of building just full of books for you and

966
01:18:55,720 --> 01:19:02,880
your small town in Minnesota, just for you. Why, because

967
01:19:02,880 --> 01:19:09,520
you're an American. That's why you deserve unlimited knowledge. We

968
01:19:09,560 --> 01:19:11,479
want you to have every book there is to have,

969
01:19:11,520 --> 01:19:13,920
and if it doesn't have it, tell the lady at

970
01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:16,520
the counter and she'll get it for you in a week.

971
01:19:20,359 --> 01:19:30,359
Like that didn't exist anywhere, and it never existed again

972
01:19:30,399 --> 01:19:37,000
thanks to him, because no rich men after this ever

973
01:19:37,079 --> 01:19:40,279
did anything like it, because the type of men that

974
01:19:40,319 --> 01:19:46,359
were allowed to be rich were different. They sure as

975
01:19:46,359 --> 01:19:47,640
fuck weren't great.

976
01:19:48,800 --> 01:19:53,640
Speaker 1: Well, you know, it's also when you even if you

977
01:19:53,680 --> 01:19:57,680
do have the idea to do something, knowing what's gonna

978
01:19:58,279 --> 01:20:00,000
brain down upon you?

979
01:20:00,119 --> 01:20:05,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, what's your incentive to be great?

980
01:20:05,319 --> 01:20:05,560
Speaker 4: Now?

981
01:20:06,319 --> 01:20:07,800
Speaker 2: Holy hell coming down on you.

982
01:20:11,039 --> 01:20:11,279
Speaker 4: Like that?

983
01:20:11,399 --> 01:20:14,439
Speaker 2: Like that's American policy. Now we tear down those that

984
01:20:14,479 --> 01:20:19,399
are great because their greatness exposes the weakness of everybody else.

985
01:20:20,800 --> 01:20:32,199
So they must be destroyed and we need and so

986
01:20:32,520 --> 01:20:35,359
you know that I have like a I think a

987
01:20:35,399 --> 01:20:40,119
friend that was a it was a you know, a

988
01:20:40,119 --> 01:20:45,800
political person a long time you know person in Congress

989
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:47,720
was Viament DANTEI Trumper.

990
01:20:49,079 --> 01:20:50,239
Speaker 4: Ye I am, yep.

991
01:20:50,319 --> 01:20:51,680
Speaker 1: I know exactly what you're talking about.

992
01:20:53,279 --> 01:20:55,840
Speaker 2: And do you want to know why he I already

993
01:20:55,880 --> 01:21:00,439
told you why that this man went from the most

994
01:21:00,520 --> 01:21:06,640
vehement anti Trumper he has quite a platform, to the

995
01:21:07,520 --> 01:21:14,279
I would probably say, no man in DC believes in

996
01:21:14,359 --> 01:21:17,600
Donald Trump like this man. And this man has known

997
01:21:17,680 --> 01:21:20,760
politics since he was like twelve. He was involved in

998
01:21:21,039 --> 01:21:25,600
like literally involved in like staying at the YMCA.

999
01:21:26,840 --> 01:21:30,000
Speaker 1: Uh So everyone would know this person. Everyone would know

1000
01:21:30,079 --> 01:21:33,359
this person's name, even if you weren't alive when he was,

1001
01:21:34,199 --> 01:21:36,560
you know, in a very prominent position.

1002
01:21:37,319 --> 01:21:45,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, this person said, when asked by other people of like,

1003
01:21:45,920 --> 01:21:49,920
you know, similar stature, why how he could possibly support

1004
01:21:49,920 --> 01:21:54,199
Donald Trump? And when we're talking about Holy Hell reigning

1005
01:21:54,279 --> 01:21:56,159
down on you, you could say whatever you want about

1006
01:21:56,159 --> 01:22:03,520
Donald Trump. But this guy said, I've studied like I've

1007
01:22:03,560 --> 01:22:06,079
studied and been a part of politics and American politics

1008
01:22:06,119 --> 01:22:12,479
all of my life, and I've never seen any presidential candidate,

1009
01:22:12,600 --> 01:22:17,119
any president, do what Donald Trump has done. He said,

1010
01:22:17,159 --> 01:22:24,479
It's like something out of a history book. Yeah, Donald

1011
01:22:24,520 --> 01:22:29,439
Trump after his first term could have And this is

1012
01:22:29,479 --> 01:22:33,680
why this guy didn't wasn't a big supporter of him

1013
01:22:33,800 --> 01:22:39,079
until I would probably say the law fair started right

1014
01:22:39,119 --> 01:22:42,079
when all the court cases, the felony started just raining

1015
01:22:42,079 --> 01:22:45,720
down on Donald Trump. That's when this guy had his conversion,

1016
01:22:46,760 --> 01:22:55,800
because he said that every single president of his lifetime,

1017
01:22:56,600 --> 01:23:01,680
he could pretty much kind of guess all of his acts,

1018
01:23:01,760 --> 01:23:04,640
like all basically how they would act in any given situation,

1019
01:23:05,119 --> 01:23:07,800
in any adversarious situation. He said, I never guessed what

1020
01:23:07,840 --> 01:23:11,399
Donald Trump DIDs.

1021
01:23:09,960 --> 01:23:13,720
Speaker 5: Like Donald Trump could be. He could spend the rest

1022
01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:18,880
of his days out on one of the many beaches

1023
01:23:18,920 --> 01:23:23,199
he probably owns outside of mar Alango, which is on

1024
01:23:23,279 --> 01:23:26,640
the which is on the beach right, Or he could

1025
01:23:26,640 --> 01:23:28,640
be playing golf at any one of the resorts that

1026
01:23:28,720 --> 01:23:31,640
he owns right that bear his name.

1027
01:23:33,920 --> 01:23:41,520
Speaker 2: He could be in beautiful castles, stunning beach resorts, being

1028
01:23:41,600 --> 01:23:47,920
served on handed foot, surrounded by his big, gorgeous family.

1029
01:23:48,640 --> 01:23:48,840
Speaker 4: Right.

1030
01:23:49,399 --> 01:23:58,680
Speaker 2: His beautiful wife like Millennia's hot, his gorgeous kids right,

1031
01:23:58,720 --> 01:24:02,840
all of his sons are fucking studs. His daughter's hot

1032
01:24:03,279 --> 01:24:09,920
like just cranking out even more handsome grandchildren. Just a

1033
01:24:09,920 --> 01:24:14,159
man at the pinnacle of success, surrounded by loved ones

1034
01:24:14,239 --> 01:24:19,600
all the time. And not only is he risking all

1035
01:24:19,640 --> 01:24:21,960
of that as he put all of that on the line,

1036
01:24:25,079 --> 01:24:30,319
but not just him, because not only will Donald Trump

1037
01:24:30,359 --> 01:24:38,399
be destroyed and everything stripped away from him, this political

1038
01:24:38,439 --> 01:24:44,520
guy knows it. I know it, Pete knows it. You

1039
01:24:44,720 --> 01:24:55,039
know it that they'll destroy his kids too. They'll probably

1040
01:24:55,039 --> 01:24:59,079
destroy his grandkids. They may not throw them at jail

1041
01:24:59,279 --> 01:25:04,079
like they would him, but they will strip away every

1042
01:25:04,119 --> 01:25:07,680
single bit of inheritance. They would have gotten every dollar,

1043
01:25:08,760 --> 01:25:16,600
all the legacy. And I can't even imagine what Donald

1044
01:25:16,600 --> 01:25:18,920
Trump's kids would be like if he lost, like what

1045
01:25:18,960 --> 01:25:22,840
their life would be like, because it's not just like

1046
01:25:22,960 --> 01:25:25,800
not being rich anymore, because that wouldn't be it. It

1047
01:25:25,800 --> 01:25:31,840
would be worse than that. The regime is sadistic. The

1048
01:25:31,880 --> 01:25:38,199
regime hates like we hate the regime, but that's the

1049
01:25:38,199 --> 01:25:43,039
regime started that we didn't start that. You know, they

1050
01:25:43,079 --> 01:25:49,680
hit first, But they hate. The regime hates nothing more

1051
01:25:49,680 --> 01:25:54,520
than it hates Donald Trump. It would destroy his kids,

1052
01:25:55,039 --> 01:26:00,960
his grandkids, and this man is willing to put it

1053
01:26:01,119 --> 01:26:06,079
all on the line, not for any reward. Right Like

1054
01:26:06,159 --> 01:26:10,399
Donald Trump's life doesn't get better. He spends the last

1055
01:26:10,399 --> 01:26:18,560
couple of years basically working for shitty pay, not fucking

1056
01:26:19,319 --> 01:26:23,720
golfing in resorts or like chilli on some fucking beach.

1057
01:26:26,039 --> 01:26:29,319
The White House is shitty inside anyone who's been inside.

1058
01:26:28,800 --> 01:26:35,000
It's an old building. It fucking smells like it it's gross.

1059
01:26:37,760 --> 01:26:41,199
Because he believes that he can make America better. That's

1060
01:26:41,199 --> 01:26:45,000
why he believes it. Whether you say, like, oh, like

1061
01:26:45,119 --> 01:26:49,560
you know he's he's compromising this way or that way, whatever,

1062
01:26:49,800 --> 01:26:53,560
like that's your opinion. In certain parts, I'd probably agree

1063
01:26:53,560 --> 01:26:58,319
with you. But he believes that he can make the

1064
01:26:58,319 --> 01:27:04,079
country better, and he is willing to risk everything in

1065
01:27:04,159 --> 01:27:08,039
his life and his children's life, his entire legacy, that

1066
01:27:08,159 --> 01:27:12,079
immortality that we were talking about, Yeah, that's gone. They

1067
01:27:12,119 --> 01:27:15,439
will they will destroy him worse than they destroyed any

1068
01:27:15,479 --> 01:27:20,119
of the men that I mentioned. And that's what made

1069
01:27:20,159 --> 01:27:24,319
this man a convert's.

1070
01:27:22,680 --> 01:27:27,760
Speaker 5: He's the most fucking vehement Trumper I've ever met, more

1071
01:27:27,760 --> 01:27:28,039
than me.

1072
01:27:30,399 --> 01:27:34,239
Speaker 2: Because he knows history more than me. He knows political

1073
01:27:34,319 --> 01:27:38,920
history more than me. That's why. And if Donald Trump

1074
01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:45,439
can do it, you know, this fucking kind of you know,

1075
01:27:45,680 --> 01:27:50,760
rough around the edges, you know, not exactly. It's a

1076
01:27:50,800 --> 01:27:53,640
good thing. Donald Trump owned, you know, built the owns

1077
01:27:53,640 --> 01:27:55,760
a lot of country clubs because he fucking wouldn't get

1078
01:27:55,800 --> 01:28:02,399
invited to many. All right, He's from Queens, he's kind

1079
01:28:02,399 --> 01:28:07,479
of poorish at least from the standing of people that

1080
01:28:07,560 --> 01:28:12,239
run country clubs. So if he can do it, if

1081
01:28:12,239 --> 01:28:15,319
he's willing to be like this, I think Elon is

1082
01:28:15,399 --> 01:28:19,840
just starting to get there. But every single one of

1083
01:28:19,880 --> 01:28:22,520
those men, the men that we talked about, they would

1084
01:28:22,560 --> 01:28:24,640
do what Donald Trump did in a heartbeat, and most

1085
01:28:24,640 --> 01:28:27,960
of them did. And they were just business men. They

1086
01:28:27,960 --> 01:28:34,640
were just rich guys. So if you're a man of meetings.

1087
01:28:36,319 --> 01:28:43,119
It's your duty to do what Donald Trump did, all right,

1088
01:28:43,199 --> 01:28:46,920
Just like every single one of these there's a listener

1089
01:28:46,960 --> 01:28:54,239
that Pete, Pete told me about, and I'll close this

1090
01:28:54,359 --> 01:29:04,279
off on him. Even though he went to a prep

1091
01:29:04,319 --> 01:29:10,840
school that was the the school he went to, should

1092
01:29:10,880 --> 01:29:16,439
make him my sworn enemy because his school was the

1093
01:29:16,520 --> 01:29:17,920
sworn enemy of mine.

1094
01:29:20,600 --> 01:29:20,920
Speaker 4: Mhm.

1095
01:29:24,039 --> 01:29:30,079
Speaker 2: We had men that would be like Mike Frederick.

1096
01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:31,840
Speaker 4: T.

1097
01:29:32,479 --> 01:29:39,840
Speaker 2: Davison or f Trueby Davison depending all right, when you

1098
01:29:39,880 --> 01:29:44,920
talk about like American aristocracy, this guy was one of them.

1099
01:29:45,159 --> 01:29:47,359
Speaker 5: He's a Yale guy. I won't hold that against him,

1100
01:29:48,720 --> 01:29:55,079
all right, scone bones kid like probably the most privilege

1101
01:29:55,119 --> 01:30:05,159
of privileged classes, and even you know, even as a kid,

1102
01:30:05,960 --> 01:30:08,720
and he wouldn't have been able to do this unless

1103
01:30:08,760 --> 01:30:10,680
his parents didn't think it was his duty.

1104
01:30:12,159 --> 01:30:14,960
Speaker 2: So Davison was the founder of the Yale the first

1105
01:30:15,119 --> 01:30:19,840
Yale Unit or first Yale Air Unit. So when I

1106
01:30:19,960 --> 01:30:23,920
mentioned that those young men in the previous episode that

1107
01:30:24,039 --> 01:30:29,840
had everything right, not at the world was their oyster?

1108
01:30:34,359 --> 01:30:38,000
What did they do when America got into a conflict

1109
01:30:38,359 --> 01:30:42,680
and what did their what did their fathers do? Because

1110
01:30:43,800 --> 01:30:46,800
their fathers were too old to fight when World War

1111
01:30:46,880 --> 01:30:50,680
two or World War one came around, and now every

1112
01:30:50,680 --> 01:30:55,800
single one of us would not let our children anywhere

1113
01:30:55,840 --> 01:31:01,560
near recruitment office. But this was different times and these

1114
01:31:01,600 --> 01:31:07,399
were different men. So Davison was the founder of that

1115
01:31:07,520 --> 01:31:11,199
air club that I talked about. America's first air force

1116
01:31:12,920 --> 01:31:18,760
was young men from Yale and their personal planes, right,

1117
01:31:19,920 --> 01:31:22,880
and most of them didn't come back. Luckily for us,

1118
01:31:23,640 --> 01:31:26,520
Truby did come back, but I bet most of his

1119
01:31:26,560 --> 01:31:34,840
friends didn't. So we had elites that made sure that

1120
01:31:34,920 --> 01:31:40,520
their sons not only served, but served in combat led men.

1121
01:31:42,880 --> 01:31:43,000
Speaker 4: Right.

1122
01:31:43,119 --> 01:31:46,840
Speaker 2: So these great men were willing to risk their legacy

1123
01:31:47,920 --> 01:31:55,840
right their offspring. It doesn't say, but I'm pretty sure

1124
01:31:55,920 --> 01:32:02,960
Trupy was probably the eldest son because he you know,

1125
01:32:03,520 --> 01:32:08,359
he usually went young men go by their first initial

1126
01:32:08,479 --> 01:32:13,720
and their middle name. Usually it's because somebody else in

1127
01:32:13,760 --> 01:32:16,279
the family is also named that, right, like Jack is

1128
01:32:16,359 --> 01:32:22,600
just short for John and John JP Morgan his dad

1129
01:32:22,640 --> 01:32:28,279
was Pierpont, so he didn't want to go by John Pierpont.

1130
01:32:28,560 --> 01:32:37,319
This won by JP. I imagine mister Davison, it probably

1131
01:32:38,560 --> 01:32:44,079
it probably worried him sick, sending his boys to war.

1132
01:32:44,159 --> 01:32:47,159
Especially something as risky as a fucking airplane back in

1133
01:32:47,199 --> 01:32:53,119
those days. But I bet you he didn't think twice

1134
01:32:53,119 --> 01:33:00,640
about it, just as like in early twenties, true Davison

1135
01:33:02,079 --> 01:33:07,119
didn't think twice about taking his plane and his friends. Right,

1136
01:33:07,640 --> 01:33:12,880
most of the first Yale air Unit was comprised of

1137
01:33:13,520 --> 01:33:18,119
young men that were in Skull and Bones or Scroll

1138
01:33:18,199 --> 01:33:26,800
and Key, which is a similar organization at a different school. Right, Like,

1139
01:33:27,960 --> 01:33:32,520
these men could have known whatever they wanted and what

1140
01:33:32,560 --> 01:33:38,760
they wanted to do was their duty, and that's what

1141
01:33:38,800 --> 01:33:44,039
their parents, their fathers wanted. It was more important that

1142
01:33:44,119 --> 01:33:49,800
their sons did their duty. Then their sons stayed alive

1143
01:33:52,399 --> 01:34:02,399
because most of those men, right the Raskings, the DuPonts,

1144
01:34:03,680 --> 01:34:06,439
they knew that some of their boys were not coming back,

1145
01:34:06,960 --> 01:34:11,960
and they did it anyways. Now, our elites, our elites,

1146
01:34:12,079 --> 01:34:19,039
send other people's kids to die. So I just hope

1147
01:34:19,039 --> 01:34:24,199
some of our elites, now, the elites that have realized

1148
01:34:24,199 --> 01:34:31,239
what time it is, that they hold themselves to the

1149
01:34:31,279 --> 01:34:36,199
standard of not even just guys like true being or

1150
01:34:38,279 --> 01:34:45,680
guys like Raskin, DuPont or Carnegie or Morgan or Rockefeller,

1151
01:34:46,399 --> 01:34:54,319
like those are big megashoes, but to hold themselves upo

1152
01:34:54,359 --> 01:34:56,479
the same standard as Donald Trump is doing right now,

1153
01:34:58,279 --> 01:35:01,800
like a real estate developer from Queen is making every

1154
01:35:01,880 --> 01:35:03,119
rich guy look like a coward.

1155
01:35:05,079 --> 01:35:10,119
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, you would hope that those people are out

1156
01:35:10,119 --> 01:35:14,760
there and that they're they're thinking about it and they're

1157
01:35:15,720 --> 01:35:22,439
making plays. I guess we shall see, because yeah, I mean,

1158
01:35:22,880 --> 01:35:26,560
you know, one of the one of the points of

1159
01:35:26,560 --> 01:35:31,439
of the Old Glory Club is to identify and raise

1160
01:35:31,560 --> 01:35:36,600
up elites, and it all starts with elite thinking yes.

1161
01:35:38,359 --> 01:35:40,720
And that's what people That's what a lot of people

1162
01:35:40,760 --> 01:35:46,399
don't get is you don't have to think like you've

1163
01:35:46,439 --> 01:35:49,600
been taught. You don't have to think like the cog

1164
01:35:49,800 --> 01:35:50,520
that school.

1165
01:35:51,239 --> 01:35:51,439
Speaker 4: You know.

1166
01:35:51,720 --> 01:35:54,560
Speaker 1: I was lucky enough to go to prep school, you

1167
01:35:54,640 --> 01:35:58,199
know it, to start by, to start my secondary education

1168
01:35:58,880 --> 01:36:06,039
in a pretty prestigious prep school. And it gave me

1169
01:36:06,079 --> 01:36:09,399
an attitude. It basically gave me. It gave me an

1170
01:36:09,680 --> 01:36:12,800
It hasn't always been the best attitude, been able talking

1171
01:36:12,800 --> 01:36:16,479
about yeah, but I've been able to reel it in.

1172
01:36:17,439 --> 01:36:22,920
And most people just don't get that. You're not getting

1173
01:36:22,920 --> 01:36:26,800
that in a classroom full of my classrooms were were

1174
01:36:26,880 --> 01:36:29,680
ten fifteen people. You're not getting that in a classroom

1175
01:36:29,720 --> 01:36:33,439
full of forty and fifty people and the teacher. You

1176
01:36:33,479 --> 01:36:36,520
look at the teacher and you're like, shit, I'm smarter

1177
01:36:36,640 --> 01:36:40,119
than that person. Because I'm assuming a lot of people

1178
01:36:40,159 --> 01:36:43,880
who are listening to this did the same thing as

1179
01:36:43,880 --> 01:36:48,920
me in school, especially in high school, definitely in college.

1180
01:36:49,840 --> 01:36:53,439
Oh wow, I'm smarter than this person. This person's a moron,

1181
01:36:55,159 --> 01:36:59,399
And yeah, there's nothing wrong with that. There's nothing wrong

1182
01:36:59,439 --> 01:37:00,119
with that kind of add.

1183
01:37:00,720 --> 01:37:02,479
Speaker 2: No, I bet you. The attitude that you're talking about,

1184
01:37:02,479 --> 01:37:07,960
specifically was that the rules don't apply to you. The

1185
01:37:08,039 --> 01:37:13,039
rules apply to other people, right, you know, the people

1186
01:37:13,119 --> 01:37:16,479
dumb enough to follow them, Like the people don't enough

1187
01:37:16,520 --> 01:37:21,640
the color color, you know, within the lines, Like okay,

1188
01:37:21,680 --> 01:37:25,720
but yeah, we've the one thing we're really good at,

1189
01:37:26,640 --> 01:37:30,600
I would say, as a thing I guess is meming

1190
01:37:30,640 --> 01:37:38,079
things into existence, all right, like we are setting I

1191
01:37:38,159 --> 01:37:42,319
mentioned this on Jason's podcast. Everybody should go listen to

1192
01:37:42,399 --> 01:37:48,800
Jason Marynchuk's podcast. He's got guys much better than me

1193
01:37:48,840 --> 01:37:54,520
on it, like Dark Enlightenment. He's just a brilliant resource.

1194
01:37:55,600 --> 01:38:02,399
But I mentioned it on his podcast that even though

1195
01:38:02,399 --> 01:38:06,439
we don't realize it, we're too dumb to realize it.

1196
01:38:06,720 --> 01:38:08,880
We've been losing so long we don't even see where

1197
01:38:08,880 --> 01:38:15,760
we're winning. We're driving the cultural zeitgeist. If you don't

1198
01:38:15,760 --> 01:38:23,359
see that, you're foolish. Right, the culture is coming to us.

1199
01:38:25,439 --> 01:38:27,920
I could probably waste another hour and a half of

1200
01:38:27,960 --> 01:38:31,479
Pete's Evening giving you examples of doing that or how

1201
01:38:31,479 --> 01:38:33,439
it's doing that. But I think you can already think

1202
01:38:33,479 --> 01:38:34,239
of some yourself.

1203
01:38:37,159 --> 01:38:37,520
Speaker 4: All right.

1204
01:38:38,399 --> 01:38:42,880
Speaker 2: So, if we're setting the cultural tempo, if we're setting

1205
01:38:42,920 --> 01:38:49,479
the narrative that the other side testified against, and we're

1206
01:38:49,520 --> 01:38:55,439
really good at meming things into existence, we need to meme,

1207
01:38:57,279 --> 01:39:01,720
we need to propagate, and we need to carry ourselves accordingly.

1208
01:39:04,279 --> 01:39:08,199
We need to bring back duty. And there is a

1209
01:39:08,279 --> 01:39:14,560
very unhealthy attitude that because the system hates me, I

1210
01:39:14,600 --> 01:39:21,680
hate it and I have no duty to it. That's

1211
01:39:21,680 --> 01:39:26,600
the wrong way to think about it. The system this nation,

1212
01:39:28,640 --> 01:39:31,920
and I may disagree with the E on this right,

1213
01:39:34,880 --> 01:39:41,720
but that's my flag. When I look in DC, I

1214
01:39:41,760 --> 01:39:51,039
see my buildings. Right when I look at this country,

1215
01:39:51,199 --> 01:39:55,159
I see mine, my country, the people that are in

1216
01:39:55,239 --> 01:40:01,680
it mine. These are my people. And just like the

1217
01:40:01,760 --> 01:40:09,920
people that worked for guys like Jack Morgan. If you're

1218
01:40:09,960 --> 01:40:17,079
listening to this. You have a duty to them because

1219
01:40:17,079 --> 01:40:22,039
they're your people. Right, You, like Pete mentioned, probably smarter

1220
01:40:22,079 --> 01:40:26,640
than everybody in class, probably smarter than the person teaching you.

1221
01:40:26,680 --> 01:40:29,760
In a better time, you would have ended up in

1222
01:40:29,760 --> 01:40:34,239
a better place. But we don't ask for better times,

1223
01:40:34,279 --> 01:40:39,920
and we don't ask for easier jobs. We don't ask for,

1224
01:40:40,600 --> 01:40:46,920
you know, an easier go at it. So these are

1225
01:40:46,960 --> 01:40:57,800
your people. The institutions are your institutions. The buildings that

1226
01:40:57,840 --> 01:41:10,600
they occupy are you. Just because some guests have long

1227
01:41:10,600 --> 01:41:16,439
overstayed their welcome doesn't make the guest house no longer

1228
01:41:16,600 --> 01:41:28,520
your house. Right, the people in your house are yours

1229
01:41:28,760 --> 01:41:33,600
and your responsibility. Whether it's the people in North Carolina,

1230
01:41:36,279 --> 01:41:39,880
whether it's the people that are less fortunate in your community,

1231
01:41:40,880 --> 01:41:47,840
you need to act accordingly. Right, Aristocracy isn't about thinking

1232
01:41:47,840 --> 01:41:55,560
you're better. It's about making people that are your responsibility better.

1233
01:41:57,800 --> 01:42:06,319
Give them the ability for self actualization, to be the

1234
01:42:06,319 --> 01:42:10,199
best that they can be with the gifts that God

1235
01:42:10,279 --> 01:42:17,880
gave them. That's your job. If anybody tries.

1236
01:42:19,720 --> 01:42:26,359
Speaker 6: To hurt them or take away their ability for that actualization,

1237
01:42:26,439 --> 01:42:31,119
it's your responsibility to make sure that doesn't happen.

1238
01:42:33,279 --> 01:42:40,279
Speaker 2: We need to be shepherds, not edge lords. We're better

1239
01:42:40,319 --> 01:42:48,520
than these people, not because we think we're better. Others

1240
01:42:48,560 --> 01:42:50,760
will think we're better because that's because they're going to

1241
01:42:50,760 --> 01:42:55,319
be watching what we do. We're just going to be

1242
01:42:55,319 --> 01:43:03,279
better because we are better. And I think we need to.

1243
01:43:06,600 --> 01:43:08,039
I think we're in that stage of the game that

1244
01:43:08,079 --> 01:43:09,920
we need to start taking ourselves quite a bit more

1245
01:43:09,920 --> 01:43:13,359
seriously than we do now, how we act in our communities,

1246
01:43:13,399 --> 01:43:17,560
how we act in our day to day lives, because

1247
01:43:17,680 --> 01:43:24,239
very soon, I mean, if you understand Roger's theorem, it's

1248
01:43:24,239 --> 01:43:28,159
how social networks work, It's how technology works. It's originally

1249
01:43:29,760 --> 01:43:39,640
used to model the propagation of technology. It's very important

1250
01:43:39,640 --> 01:43:42,880
to technology or for two tech entrepreneurs. Every tech guy

1251
01:43:43,079 --> 01:43:45,720
properly or any founder at least knows what I'm talking about.

1252
01:43:46,079 --> 01:43:50,199
That Elon knows what I'm talking about. I guarantee it right,

1253
01:43:50,239 --> 01:43:53,199
because as you're planning your tech company out right, it's

1254
01:43:53,319 --> 01:43:59,279
very important that you understand about how quickly those ideas right,

1255
01:43:59,399 --> 01:44:01,159
your new way of doing things or a new piece

1256
01:44:01,199 --> 01:44:04,920
of technology propagates throughout society like somebody's come up with

1257
01:44:04,920 --> 01:44:08,800
a new solution. It saves bunch of time. Okay, well,

1258
01:44:08,920 --> 01:44:10,399
how long does it take for the rest of the

1259
01:44:10,439 --> 01:44:14,279
population to understand that this new solution is the better

1260
01:44:14,319 --> 01:44:17,640
way of doing things? This platform whatever is that you built?

1261
01:44:18,840 --> 01:44:19,199
Speaker 4: All right?

1262
01:44:19,319 --> 01:44:21,600
Speaker 2: How fast those ideas travel will give you an idea

1263
01:44:21,640 --> 01:44:24,560
of how much capital you need to outlay, how much

1264
01:44:24,640 --> 01:44:27,640
needs to be spent into growing the platform, how much

1265
01:44:27,720 --> 01:44:30,960
needs to be spent in bringing on new you know,

1266
01:44:31,079 --> 01:44:33,520
new team members. What are you going to need. Roger's

1267
01:44:33,520 --> 01:44:39,399
theorem is important. It turns out it's applicable to not

1268
01:44:39,439 --> 01:44:43,239
just technology but ideas. It's a very good way to

1269
01:44:43,319 --> 01:44:50,960
model how fast ideas propagate through society. And the magic

1270
01:44:51,079 --> 01:44:55,520
number of the point of no return I guess before

1271
01:44:55,560 --> 01:45:01,840
the curve becomes parabolic or the system becomes nonlinear, I

1272
01:45:01,840 --> 01:45:06,560
guess is I may have to do some house cleaning.

1273
01:45:06,680 --> 01:45:10,760
It's late, I haven't eaten since yesterday. But I think

1274
01:45:10,760 --> 01:45:13,720
it's like thirteen percent, thirteen and a half something like that,

1275
01:45:15,680 --> 01:45:19,920
And I'm sure everybody listening would agree. And Pete, do

1276
01:45:20,000 --> 01:45:22,399
you think that thirteen percent of the population knows what

1277
01:45:22,439 --> 01:45:22,720
we know?

1278
01:45:24,079 --> 01:45:28,239
Speaker 1: I think it's got I think, especially over the last year.

1279
01:45:29,680 --> 01:45:33,840
If it's not thirteen it's damn fucking close.

1280
01:45:34,399 --> 01:45:37,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would actually think it's more to be honest

1281
01:45:37,520 --> 01:45:41,159
with you, because Twitter is just whatever. Whatever the conversation

1282
01:45:41,279 --> 01:45:44,399
is on Twitter is the conversation in normally land six

1283
01:45:44,439 --> 01:45:49,560
months later. Okay, so hypothetically we're past thirteen percent. That

1284
01:45:49,720 --> 01:45:53,239
means the knowledge that we have the idea the way

1285
01:45:53,279 --> 01:46:00,960
we view the world is eventually right, not hypothetically, not possibly,

1286
01:46:01,199 --> 01:46:08,159
is going to be the idea that everyone has the

1287
01:46:08,199 --> 01:46:11,800
thinking right, the realization.

1288
01:46:13,159 --> 01:46:13,359
Speaker 4: Right.

1289
01:46:13,439 --> 01:46:17,399
Speaker 2: So our worldview becoming the dominant worldview is a fata

1290
01:46:17,479 --> 01:46:23,520
complete right. The idea is out of the barn. It's coming.

1291
01:46:24,680 --> 01:46:27,960
So that means, whether it's a year, whether it's five

1292
01:46:28,039 --> 01:46:37,039
years or ten years, people are going to need men

1293
01:46:37,119 --> 01:46:42,479
like you to be men like we had a long

1294
01:46:42,479 --> 01:46:46,560
time ago, right, Because if the rest of the country

1295
01:46:46,600 --> 01:46:49,960
is coming to where we are, right, we have a

1296
01:46:49,960 --> 01:46:54,960
whole bunch of people coming to a party at your house, right,

1297
01:46:54,960 --> 01:46:56,479
they haven't arrived yet.

1298
01:46:59,560 --> 01:47:05,880
Speaker 5: I think you probably should get dressed, all right, have

1299
01:47:06,000 --> 01:47:13,479
the table set, you know, get to looking like the

1300
01:47:13,479 --> 01:47:14,239
man of the house.

1301
01:47:18,359 --> 01:47:24,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think that's uh, let's just end it

1302
01:47:24,079 --> 01:47:24,439
right there.

1303
01:47:24,640 --> 01:47:25,680
Speaker 2: I think that's the spot.

1304
01:47:27,279 --> 01:47:27,520
Speaker 4: Yep.

1305
01:47:28,399 --> 01:47:29,119
Speaker 2: Until next time.

1306
01:47:30,399 --> 01:47:35,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, until next time, man, Thank you very much. And yeah,

1307
01:47:35,239 --> 01:47:37,239
hold on, they'll go anywhere, because we're probably going to

1308
01:47:37,319 --> 01:48:16,399
talk for another hour without remor probably thanks man,
