WEBVTT 1 00:00:22.600 --> 00:00:25.440 Using free speech to free minds. 2 00:00:27.320 --> 00:00:31.239 You're listening to the David Night Show. 3 00:00:48.439 --> 00:00:51.520 As the clock strikes thirteen, It's Friday, the eighth of November. 4 00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:55.719 Here of our Lord, twenty twenty four. Well, today we're 5 00:00:55.719 --> 00:00:59.079 going to be taking a look at tokenization. Is this 6 00:00:59.240 --> 00:01:03.479 the back door the de facto CBDC? I think it is, 7 00:01:04.319 --> 00:01:06.840 And we'll see how it folds in with Elon Musk, 8 00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:09.439 And of course Elon Musk is folding in with President Trump, 9 00:01:10.200 --> 00:01:12.519 the king of crony capitalism. It's not going to be 10 00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:16.239 the president of crony capitalism. We'll have Eric Peters on 11 00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:19.439 in the third hour. That was the first time Eric 12 00:01:19.480 --> 00:01:22.359 and I talked. We talked about Elon Musk and his 13 00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:26.959 crony capitalism. Looks like he's got a very effective strategy. 14 00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:31.400 But we're going to begin today with the election of 15 00:01:31.840 --> 00:01:37.599 a salon owner who stood against the lockdown. A very 16 00:01:37.640 --> 00:01:44.159 important story and a story that shows how Fauci and 17 00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:48.200 all the rest of these people flipped their narrative over 18 00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:51.079 about a five six year period. Six years. We'll be 19 00:01:51.200 --> 00:02:10.639 right back. Well, I've talked to people who have stood 20 00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:13.719 against the lockdown tyranny of four years ago. Time for 21 00:02:13.800 --> 00:02:17.080 us to remember that, because as we look at the 22 00:02:17.240 --> 00:02:23.840 Maha people, Maha, I see that. I always think, maybe 23 00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:28.039 you remember it the movie Hawaii based on James Mitchener, 24 00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:33.639 a very anti Christian movie, but had Maxwaan Sidao as 25 00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:36.319 a missionary, Julie Andrews as his wife, and there was 26 00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:41.560 this big fat Hawaiian queen. You go, mah, That's what 27 00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:45.360 I think of when I see this laughable joke of 28 00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:48.960 make America healthy again. I am so sick and tired 29 00:02:49.159 --> 00:02:52.319 of Maga Maha and all these variables. Is like, but 30 00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:54.520 you know, it is the most important election of our lifetime. 31 00:02:54.599 --> 00:02:57.319 Let's not forget that. So we gotta take it seriously. 32 00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:05.520 Calm down. But yeah, when we look at this and 33 00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:07.919 you look at the fact that Robert Redfield, all it 34 00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:12.960 took was just this little bit of flattery from RK 35 00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:16.280 to RFK Junior. Rkjue. Oh, I talked a lot about 36 00:03:16.319 --> 00:03:19.039 Robert Redfield in my book. I guess maybe I was wrong, 37 00:03:19.159 --> 00:03:21.560 as he said some nice things about me. Then he's 38 00:03:21.560 --> 00:03:24.479 out there pushing bird flow. So let's go back and 39 00:03:24.520 --> 00:03:30.879 take a look at the pandemic before we had COVID 40 00:03:31.039 --> 00:03:33.960 and how people reacted to that. Ebola when Ebola came 41 00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:38.639 to town, and just to remind you, it was a 42 00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:44.840 situation where Obama was president and it was twenty fourteen 43 00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:51.120 and you had a illegal immigrant. I think he was illegal, 44 00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:54.759 but he was African, so he's an immigrant of color 45 00:03:55.479 --> 00:04:01.479 and he comes into the country with Ebola, and the 46 00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:06.719 local official there in Dallas where he got sick, did 47 00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:11.280 everything he could, everything he could to assuage the fear 48 00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:13.800 of people. That's not anything to worry about. It's fine. 49 00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:19.439 They had Obama come down, and Fauci came down, Francis 50 00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:24.959 Collins came down, They did meetings that they televised, they 51 00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:29.279 did press conferences till there. It's fine, it's okay, it's okay. 52 00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:34.600 The chief official there in county Dallas County was a 53 00:04:34.639 --> 00:04:38.720 guy named Clay Jenkins, who's got the title of judge. 54 00:04:38.759 --> 00:04:42.000 That's what they called the chief official in the county 55 00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:46.720 in Texas. I don't know why they do that. It's 56 00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:49.800 confusing because he's not a judge in a courtroom. And 57 00:04:49.920 --> 00:04:52.319 this story does have a judge in a courtroom as well. 58 00:04:52.360 --> 00:04:54.000 So I've got two people, both of them are the 59 00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:59.160 title of judge and they're doing completely different offices. Of course, 60 00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:02.879 in Tennessee you have the chief official in the counties 61 00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:05.839 called the mayor of the county, which is not the 62 00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:07.720 same as the mayor of a city, you know, so 63 00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:11.560 the same type of thing. It's like we seem to 64 00:05:11.560 --> 00:05:13.199 not be able to come up with new words to 65 00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:15.720 describe them. I've got a lot of words to describe 66 00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:19.759 people like this, but we're not allowed to put those 67 00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:23.279 in his official titles. It gets you banned on social 68 00:05:23.319 --> 00:05:26.560 media if you use those kinds of words. So he 69 00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:29.839 was doing everything he can because you see, if Ebola 70 00:05:29.920 --> 00:05:34.879 comes into the country with an illegal immigrant or a migrant, 71 00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:39.519 whether he's illegal, a migrant of color, now it's got 72 00:05:39.759 --> 00:05:43.240 this disease, has got civil rights, and we need to 73 00:05:43.279 --> 00:05:46.720 treat it with kid gloves. And so here he is, 74 00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:48.800 as Ebola is coming in, and we'll show you how 75 00:05:48.879 --> 00:05:51.879 his tune changed when it was COVID. 76 00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:54.800 Forty four of the forty eight people, why were original 77 00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:58.839 contacts for Eric Duncan, Because they've now rolled off of 78 00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:03.399 our contact list and they're going to be rejoining society and. 79 00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:04.920 Into no problem. 80 00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:06.399 Important moment for Dallas. 81 00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:09.399 We need to welcome these children back into school, these 82 00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:12.680 families back in the community and do what we're good at, 83 00:06:13.000 --> 00:06:15.639 which is treating other people where we ourselves would want 84 00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:16.199 to be treated. 85 00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:20.879 They're surprise and anguish in the US after revelations at 86 00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:24.319 a hospital worker in Texas has caught the ebola virus 87 00:06:25.279 --> 00:06:28.680 only days after Spain found herself in a similar situation. 88 00:06:29.240 --> 00:06:32.639 A worker who looked after a librarian man who later died, 89 00:06:32.759 --> 00:06:37.439 has also now tested positive. Officials in Dallas are defending 90 00:06:37.480 --> 00:06:40.879 their procedures, but can't yet explain how a new infection 91 00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:42.639 was possible in a hospital. 92 00:06:43.480 --> 00:06:48.800 We expected that something that it was possible that a 93 00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:52.360 second person could contract the virus. 94 00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:56.000 Actually, contingency planning a third person did in the hospital. 95 00:06:55.759 --> 00:06:59.800 Put into a place in the hospital. 96 00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:05.120 Will oh well, the way that the. 97 00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:08.839 Healthcare worker followed those contingency plans. 98 00:07:09.319 --> 00:07:12.560 The hospital says it's still investigating. 99 00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:16.240 Two or three questions for doctor. We're still confident that 100 00:07:16.480 --> 00:07:19.720 the precautions that we have in place will protect our 101 00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:20.680 healthcare workers. 102 00:07:20.720 --> 00:07:26.240 We don't. And then a second one got sick, So 103 00:07:26.360 --> 00:07:29.319 you have this very serious disease. Actually he died. This 104 00:07:29.399 --> 00:07:31.519 is not like the COVID pandemic, where nobody was dying 105 00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:36.759 and we declared a global pandemic. I think, what was it, 106 00:07:36.839 --> 00:07:40.480 Gerald Slunty's thing. You know, five people alleged to have 107 00:07:40.519 --> 00:07:43.040 died from COVID or something in China. You know, one 108 00:07:43.079 --> 00:07:46.560 and a half billions safe. It's not deadly, but you know, 109 00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:49.759 the bowl of stuff can be very serious. Whatever it is, 110 00:07:49.959 --> 00:07:53.920 you die bleeding out of every orifice. Just amazing. That's 111 00:07:53.959 --> 00:07:58.639 what Trump said about Megan Kelly that one time. But 112 00:07:58.680 --> 00:08:04.079 she didn't she didn't have a BOLLA. So uh so, 113 00:08:04.319 --> 00:08:06.480 he he did everything he could. I mean, he did 114 00:08:06.519 --> 00:08:09.199 everything but go in and lick the walls where this 115 00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:12.439 guy was living. You know, I said, we're gonna forty 116 00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:14.240 eight people we think have been in contact with him, 117 00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:16.519 watching him for a couple of days. But you know, 118 00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:18.079 you don't have to worry about this, he said. At 119 00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:20.360 the time, we got football games that are coming up. 120 00:08:20.360 --> 00:08:23.600 We got Houston and Dallas playing an NFL game. Just go, 121 00:08:23.800 --> 00:08:26.639 he said, we got X number of hospitals, and we 122 00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:29.759 got X number of doctors and nurses and medical staff 123 00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:32.360 and Dallas. We're fine. You're fine. Don't worry about any 124 00:08:32.399 --> 00:08:37.679 of this stuff. And so at the time, Fauci, who 125 00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:41.399 was not that well known, came to town federal health 126 00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:46.480 official that was him says, mandatory quarantines are not helping 127 00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:51.519 the bull of fight. Whoa how is that mandatory quarantines 128 00:08:51.559 --> 00:08:55.000 didn't help? Did they have people wearing you know, makeshift 129 00:08:55.080 --> 00:08:58.679 masks and you know bandannas and stuff like that. Did 130 00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:02.039 they have people walking and one direction in the grocery 131 00:09:02.039 --> 00:09:05.120 store and all this other kind of simon says nonsense. 132 00:09:06.399 --> 00:09:08.799 Fauci said that he doesn't recommend a twenty one day 133 00:09:08.840 --> 00:09:13.159 quarantine for returning high risk travelers like those institute this 134 00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:15.480 week in Illinois, New York, and New Jersey because they 135 00:09:15.519 --> 00:09:21.159 discouraged volunteers. So we got at the time, the controversy 136 00:09:21.320 --> 00:09:24.159 was that you had doctors and nurses who were medical 137 00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:28.200 staff there were going to Africa treating people in Africa 138 00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:30.480 that had this disease, and they were getting sick themselves, 139 00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:33.720 some of them died, some of them were being brought 140 00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:39.639 back to hospitals in the US, and people are very 141 00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:43.320 concerned that this is going to spread somehow that was contagious. Illinois, 142 00:09:43.399 --> 00:09:45.440 New York, New Jersey said We're going to put people 143 00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:47.360 in quarantine. He says, well, no, if we do that, 144 00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:49.320 it's going to scare people and they won't go help 145 00:09:49.360 --> 00:09:54.480 people in Africa, said Fauci. So that's the most important thing. 146 00:09:54.879 --> 00:09:57.159 We want doctors to go to Africa. We want Africans 147 00:09:57.200 --> 00:10:00.679 to come to America. So let's not stop it travel 148 00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:04.159 at all. He said that active self monitoring can be 149 00:10:04.200 --> 00:10:06.440 as effective as quarantining. He said, to Bola spread through 150 00:10:06.440 --> 00:10:11.039 direct contact with bodily fluids, and which is exactly what 151 00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:13.399 medical staff are doing. That's why people said, well, if 152 00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:16.120 you're going there to help people medically, maybe we should 153 00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:20.600 have you in quarantine before you come back. But the 154 00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:23.039 person who was on the other side speaking out quite 155 00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:28.279 a bit was New Jersey Governor Chris Christie. He defended 156 00:10:28.279 --> 00:10:31.639 his state's quarantine policy following Fauci's criticism. He said, he 157 00:10:31.720 --> 00:10:34.240 thinks that the CDC will eventually come around to our 158 00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:37.279 point of view. Yeah, they did. They locked everybody down 159 00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:42.039 even when there wasn't a disease like this. Christy has 160 00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:46.200 also been criticized by the ASLU, which remained completely and 161 00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:49.480 strangely silent as everything was being locked down in twenty twenty. 162 00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:53.080 Isn't that interesting? ASILU boy, you can never depend on 163 00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:56.720 them to defend liberty. Ever, ever, they've always got a 164 00:10:56.799 --> 00:11:02.840 political agenda there. It's very subversive organization. They won't when 165 00:11:02.840 --> 00:11:04.559 we were working as a third party. They would never 166 00:11:04.679 --> 00:11:07.519 defend free speech, ballot access debates, any of this kind 167 00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:12.279 of stuff. But they would defend Nazis marching in Skokie, Illinois, 168 00:11:12.320 --> 00:11:15.279 which is mostly Jewish, because they wanted a virtue signal 169 00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:20.360 about that. And so here they are saying that Christy 170 00:11:21.240 --> 00:11:26.039 should not be quarantining a nurse who tested negative for ebola. 171 00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:30.559 They said, serious constitutional concerns about the state abusing its powers. Well, 172 00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:33.200 I agree with that at the time, but then they 173 00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:35.919 completely forgot about it when COVID came around. You know, 174 00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:38.559 they were right then, and then when it went everywhere, 175 00:11:38.679 --> 00:11:43.039 they just ignored it. Christy said, I don't believe when 176 00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:45.360 you're dealing with something as serious as this, so we 177 00:11:45.399 --> 00:11:48.480 can count on a voluntary system if anything else. The 178 00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:51.919 government's job is to protect the safety and the health 179 00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:57.120 of our citizens. But then when COVID came, this judge 180 00:11:57.759 --> 00:12:01.679 Clay Jenkins in Dallas, and he still, amazingly enough, he 181 00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:04.720 is still judged. Publicans tried to get him out because 182 00:12:04.720 --> 00:12:06.240 of his heavy handedness, and I'm going to show you 183 00:12:06.320 --> 00:12:08.639 right now, but when COVID came to town. Instead of 184 00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:12.879 Ebola coming to town, it was a different story. 185 00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:16.919 Dallas County Commissioner JJ Koch filed a lawsuit and temporary 186 00:12:17.000 --> 00:12:20.679 restraining order against Judge Clay Jenkins. He also called for 187 00:12:20.720 --> 00:12:23.600 his removal from office. It comes almost a week after 188 00:12:23.679 --> 00:12:26.559 Coach was removed from a city council meeting for refusing 189 00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:29.600 to wear a mask at the request of Jenkins. In 190 00:12:29.639 --> 00:12:32.879 the lawsuit, Coach says Jenkins is issuing illegal orders and 191 00:12:32.960 --> 00:12:36.559 misusing the power of his position to prevent fellow commissioners 192 00:12:36.559 --> 00:12:39.759 from participating when he knows that his rules are illegal. 193 00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:43.720 Tonight, Dallas County ready to enforce an executive order requiring 194 00:12:43.840 --> 00:12:47.279 non essential businesses to close. They zeroed in on hobby 195 00:12:47.320 --> 00:12:50.799 lobby stores tonight, where Andrea Lucia in fact found sheriff's 196 00:12:50.799 --> 00:12:54.840 deputies delivering a warning directly at he stores. 197 00:12:54.960 --> 00:12:57.799 Doors were scheduled to stay open late into the evening, 198 00:12:57.840 --> 00:13:01.039 that is, before law enforcement arrived with a letter from 199 00:13:01.080 --> 00:13:05.320 the county judge accusing it of operating against his orders. 200 00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:07.840 It warned the store to shut down his orders are 201 00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:11.960 not law or face legal action. Business at the hobby 202 00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:15.919 lobby on Dallas's Preston Avenue halted abruptly. I guess the 203 00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:19.440 manager came on the intercom and immediately told everyone to 204 00:13:19.759 --> 00:13:22.519 stop shopping, put their items down, and to leave the 205 00:13:22.559 --> 00:13:26.039 store immediately. Libya van Buren walked away from a full 206 00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:28.440 shopping cart. Can we at least check out? Can I 207 00:13:28.480 --> 00:13:30.919 buy one thing? They're like, nope, can't buy anything, Just 208 00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:32.720 have to leave yet. 209 00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:34.440 No, she's not wearing a mask. 210 00:13:34.960 --> 00:13:36.919 Reporters, not Dallas Kunny, Judge Claychon. 211 00:13:36.759 --> 00:13:38.879 None of these cops are wearing a mask. Not six 212 00:13:38.960 --> 00:13:40.000 feet apart my name. 213 00:13:40.320 --> 00:13:45.039 If a hobby lobby and you work at hobby lobby, particularly, 214 00:13:45.159 --> 00:13:47.240 you go ahead and lock up and leave as soon 215 00:13:47.279 --> 00:13:47.879 as possible. 216 00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:50.039 Why we were there just downfter what law? 217 00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:51.480 Look at this? Nobody's wearing a mask. 218 00:13:51.639 --> 00:13:54.279 Pulled up and posted the cease and assist letter at 219 00:13:54.320 --> 00:13:58.919 the door. A hobby lobby in Garland was still open 220 00:13:58.960 --> 00:14:02.360 when deputies arrived there, handed the letter to the manager 221 00:14:02.639 --> 00:14:06.240 and watched to make sure it's shut down. Signs posted 222 00:14:06.240 --> 00:14:09.159 at the stores claim they are an essential business. 223 00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:11.240 The rest they tried to comply with tyranny. 224 00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:13.840 If they sell materials you can use to make your 225 00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:18.399 own masks, as well as educational office and small business supplies. 226 00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:22.120 But Judge Jenkins, who issued the county's emergency order, says 227 00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:24.840 there's no reason a craft store should be open. 228 00:14:25.639 --> 00:14:26.279 He's decided. 229 00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:29.159 Hes to the businesses that are following this order. 230 00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:32.799 Why tian does that make your blood boil? It should 231 00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:36.799 It's going to happen again, and it's going to happen 232 00:14:36.840 --> 00:14:39.240 because we're going to go to sleep. Trump's in charge. 233 00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:42.679 We've reached nirvana. America has been saved. We've got Trump 234 00:14:42.759 --> 00:14:45.480 and Musk. These billionaires are going to rob us blind, 235 00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:50.519 but we've been saved. H Well, all that stuff was happening. 236 00:14:51.360 --> 00:14:55.799 Trump was showering money on the state governors, who was 237 00:14:55.840 --> 00:14:58.480 showering money on the states, and it was trickling down, 238 00:15:00.080 --> 00:15:05.840 not trickle down prosperity, trickle down tyranny. Yeah, the buck. 239 00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:09.519 The orders began with Trump and they were implemented with 240 00:15:09.639 --> 00:15:12.720 all of that, and he released the money. Well, that 241 00:15:12.799 --> 00:15:14.519 makes my blood boil to see all that stuff. And 242 00:15:14.559 --> 00:15:17.399 you know that you can't comply with tyranny, right, nobody 243 00:15:17.480 --> 00:15:20.480 ever complied their way out of tyranny and put signs up. 244 00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:23.399 We are an essential business. You know, people can use 245 00:15:23.759 --> 00:15:28.320 our craft stuff to make their own masks, because what 246 00:15:28.440 --> 00:15:31.759 is a mask? We don't know what a mask is. 247 00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:33.159 We don't know what a woman is. We don't know 248 00:15:33.159 --> 00:15:35.120 what a baby is. We don't know what an abortion is. 249 00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:38.399 We don't know anything anymore. Right, that's where they want us. 250 00:15:38.559 --> 00:15:42.279 What is a mask? It could be anything. I saw 251 00:15:42.320 --> 00:15:44.799 a picture that was put up with Whitney Webb got 252 00:15:44.840 --> 00:15:48.679 into back and forth with Bert Weinstein, you know, because he's, oh, 253 00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:51.440 we got trump back, and it's like you pathetic, you know, 254 00:15:51.639 --> 00:15:56.960 she said, essentially paraphrasing. But he pushes back on it, 255 00:15:56.960 --> 00:15:59.519 and she puts a picture up that he should have 256 00:15:59.519 --> 00:16:02.840 put it in the She puts a picture up that 257 00:16:02.919 --> 00:16:07.039 he put up of himself where he's doing some interview 258 00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:12.039 and he's got like a red writer be begun a 259 00:16:12.159 --> 00:16:16.159 special bandana mask. You know, it's going to protect you 260 00:16:16.200 --> 00:16:18.639 from the bad guys in the bag viruses that are 261 00:16:18.679 --> 00:16:22.080 out there. And he's got goggles on and he's got 262 00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:25.759 the mask like up underneath the goggles. The most ridiculous, 263 00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:28.720 absurd thing I've ever seen in my life. This guy 264 00:16:28.799 --> 00:16:31.519 is some kind of a medical person or something like that. 265 00:16:32.080 --> 00:16:35.000 Walk away from people like that as I said, if 266 00:16:35.080 --> 00:16:38.200 I go somewhere, whether it's a doctor or nurse wearing 267 00:16:38.200 --> 00:16:40.879 a mask, I go the other direction. I don't want 268 00:16:40.919 --> 00:16:46.039 to have somebody that blazingly ignorant doing any medical stuff 269 00:16:46.039 --> 00:16:48.240 around me. And I don't want to listen to Burt Weinstein. 270 00:16:48.279 --> 00:16:50.639 If he's that stupid that he would put that up, 271 00:16:50.919 --> 00:16:54.879 that's even dumber than his political decision. But when you 272 00:16:54.919 --> 00:16:56.480 look at what they were trying to do and think 273 00:16:56.519 --> 00:17:00.679 about that, it's a pandemic, this horrible panda where you 274 00:17:00.799 --> 00:17:05.480 can make your own mask. There's no specifications on it. 275 00:17:05.559 --> 00:17:10.079 What utter nonsense, But it is infuriating. And the point 276 00:17:10.240 --> 00:17:13.160 is is that this guy, Dallas Jenkins, when Ebola was 277 00:17:13.160 --> 00:17:15.440 there and you had the guy who had it died, 278 00:17:15.519 --> 00:17:18.839 he gave it to two hospital workers who were wearing 279 00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:21.079 protective clothing and all the rest of stuff. Somehow they 280 00:17:21.119 --> 00:17:23.400 got sick and they nearly died in the hospital. Fortunately 281 00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:27.720 they didn't. But Clay Jenkins was telling me, it's all fine, 282 00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:30.200 we go to send the kids back to school. You 283 00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:33.279 treat them like you would you want to be treated yourself. 284 00:17:34.039 --> 00:17:36.359 And his dog, they said that they came to him. 285 00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:38.039 They said, well, you know when this happened in Spain. 286 00:17:38.960 --> 00:17:41.440 The person that got sick and died had a dog 287 00:17:41.480 --> 00:17:43.440 that put the dog down. Well, this is not Spain. 288 00:17:43.559 --> 00:17:45.799 I'm going to personally take care of that dog and 289 00:17:45.839 --> 00:17:48.480 I'm personally driving this guy to the hospital and all 290 00:17:48.519 --> 00:17:50.960 the rest of this stuff. I mean, he did everything 291 00:17:51.039 --> 00:17:54.039 he could to assuage fear, and then when COVID came, 292 00:17:54.079 --> 00:17:58.240 he did everything he could to push fear, irrational fear 293 00:17:58.440 --> 00:18:02.319 about everything. And so it's kind of interesting going back 294 00:18:02.359 --> 00:18:04.839 to twenty twenty, this article about what was happening. One 295 00:18:04.880 --> 00:18:07.680 person defied him and she went to jail. And I 296 00:18:07.799 --> 00:18:12.400 had an interview that I did with somebody who defied 297 00:18:12.599 --> 00:18:19.160 Tim Waltz in Minnesota, and he's already fading from memory. 298 00:18:20.559 --> 00:18:25.240 Tim Kane, Tim Wallace is it. But that's a good thing. 299 00:18:26.279 --> 00:18:30.160 But he locked up a shop on a restaurant or 300 00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:32.279 a shop owner. Forget what her business was now had 301 00:18:32.319 --> 00:18:35.880 it up for quite some time, depended on Twitter, but 302 00:18:36.000 --> 00:18:40.599 she didn't get the national attention that Shelley Luther. Does 303 00:18:40.599 --> 00:18:44.640 that sound familiar? Had a salon there in Dallas, and 304 00:18:44.759 --> 00:18:49.279 that guy, Clay Jenkins went to war against her. After 305 00:18:49.319 --> 00:18:52.000 Shelley Luther was jailed for opening her salon and blatant 306 00:18:52.200 --> 00:18:56.880 defiance of emergency orders. Top Texas Republicans and all three 307 00:18:56.880 --> 00:19:01.079 branches of government scrambled to ensure her release. The article 308 00:19:01.119 --> 00:19:06.119 is how a Dallas salon owner changed Texas's reopening debate. 309 00:19:06.680 --> 00:19:09.440 You see, everybody was fed up with this. Everybody knew 310 00:19:09.519 --> 00:19:12.799 it was fiction and nonsense. But you've gotta have somebody 311 00:19:12.839 --> 00:19:16.079 who stands up and does something about it, right. And 312 00:19:16.119 --> 00:19:20.160 then in her particular case, there were other people who 313 00:19:20.559 --> 00:19:22.640 stood there with her. She wasn't just standing by herself, 314 00:19:22.759 --> 00:19:25.880 you know, the lady who stood by herself and tried 315 00:19:25.880 --> 00:19:28.160 to organize things in Minnesota, and there were a couple 316 00:19:28.279 --> 00:19:30.839 hundred businesses in Minnesota said we're going to not do this, 317 00:19:30.880 --> 00:19:33.000 We're not going to shut down. So like, all right, good, 318 00:19:33.039 --> 00:19:36.160 we hang together, we can do this. And at the 319 00:19:36.240 --> 00:19:40.640 last minute they all chickened out, and there was only 320 00:19:40.680 --> 00:19:45.279 about a handful of businesses that did it. And then 321 00:19:45.839 --> 00:19:49.400 the governor sent a threatening letter to them or some official, 322 00:19:50.319 --> 00:19:56.000 and then everybody but the lady that I interviewed back down. 323 00:19:56.480 --> 00:19:59.519 She would not back down. She stood alone. Now, Shelley 324 00:19:59.640 --> 00:20:02.720 Luther was not standing alone for very long. Other people 325 00:20:02.960 --> 00:20:05.799 got involved, and there had been some other salon owners 326 00:20:06.400 --> 00:20:11.880 in Laredo, Hispanic salon owners. Then they did not get 327 00:20:11.960 --> 00:20:17.480 attention until she, Shelley Luther, got large and with all 328 00:20:17.480 --> 00:20:21.000 of this stuff, and then she made common cause with 329 00:20:21.079 --> 00:20:25.799 them as well. By April twenty seventh, Remember this all 330 00:20:25.839 --> 00:20:29.440 began the middle of March, so we're now six weeks 331 00:20:29.519 --> 00:20:33.000 into it. When Governor Abbot announced that hair salons and 332 00:20:33.079 --> 00:20:36.599 barbershops would have to remain closed after six weeks, the 333 00:20:36.640 --> 00:20:41.640 Republican Governor Shelley Luther's Salon Ala Mode is what she 334 00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:44.960 called it, Salon Ala Mode had long since opened for business. 335 00:20:45.200 --> 00:20:48.359 Her stylus trimmed and chatted as Abbot said that restaurants 336 00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:51.400 could partially reopen, but not salons, where he said the 337 00:20:51.480 --> 00:20:55.680 risk of spreading COVID nineteen eighty four was higher because 338 00:20:55.880 --> 00:20:59.960 of close quarters. He reminded the news cameras that violators 339 00:21:00.039 --> 00:21:01.799 faced a one thousand dollars fine and up to one 340 00:21:01.839 --> 00:21:05.799 hundred and eighty days in jail. Six months Luther knew 341 00:21:05.839 --> 00:21:09.400 that she was operating in blatant defiance of emergency orders 342 00:21:09.440 --> 00:21:12.599 from the state and county. She had already torn up 343 00:21:12.839 --> 00:21:15.480 a cease and desist letter from local authorities, winning loud 344 00:21:15.519 --> 00:21:19.000 cheers on stage at an Open Texas rally in Frisco. 345 00:21:19.759 --> 00:21:22.440 But when the governor's team reached out to her that week, 346 00:21:23.039 --> 00:21:25.880 it was not to demand that she close or to 347 00:21:26.039 --> 00:21:29.400 threaten the jail time that he had warned people about. Instead, 348 00:21:29.400 --> 00:21:33.920 his advisers sought her guidance. How could they open salons sooner? 349 00:21:34.079 --> 00:21:38.640 What safety measures did she recommend? And this is what 350 00:21:38.759 --> 00:21:42.119 we say. The person who is the head of the 351 00:21:42.119 --> 00:21:47.599 CDC right now was the public health state public health 352 00:21:47.599 --> 00:21:51.440 director in North Carolina, appointed by that Democrat governor. And 353 00:21:51.480 --> 00:21:53.039 she was laughing. She said, I don't know what to do. 354 00:21:53.160 --> 00:21:56.200 I called up people you know in other states and said, 355 00:21:56.240 --> 00:21:57.119 are you going to let them do this? 356 00:21:57.519 --> 00:21:57.759 You not? 357 00:21:57.880 --> 00:22:00.319 Okay? Well I won't let them do that either. Making 358 00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:03.920 this stuff up. Obviously we all knew it. And this 359 00:22:04.039 --> 00:22:07.039 is all political. What does she know about medicine? Why 360 00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:10.240 would Abbot call her? What does Abbot know about medicine? 361 00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:12.400 What does Shelley Luther know about medicine? But they know 362 00:22:12.440 --> 00:22:16.480 about politics. Just over a week later, Abbot had done 363 00:22:16.519 --> 00:22:20.279 what Luther wanted, allowing salons to reopen sooner than anticipated, 364 00:22:20.319 --> 00:22:23.640 and Luther was in jail. A Democrat judge in Dallas 365 00:22:24.200 --> 00:22:27.640 issued the sentence when she repeatedly refused to close her salon. Now, 366 00:22:27.640 --> 00:22:30.799 this is the judge who has a courtroom as opposed 367 00:22:30.799 --> 00:22:34.039 to the judge who has a county. Yeah, two offices, 368 00:22:34.559 --> 00:22:37.519 same title. She wasn't the first beautician to find herself 369 00:22:37.559 --> 00:22:41.279 in legal trouble for violating coronavirus orders. Two Laredo women, 370 00:22:41.599 --> 00:22:48.079 Anna Isabel Castro Garcia and Brenda Stephanie Matta were arrested 371 00:22:48.480 --> 00:22:52.880 in mid April for offering cosmetic services. This is a 372 00:22:52.960 --> 00:22:56.119 legacy of Donald Trump, and I will never support that 373 00:22:56.200 --> 00:22:58.759 man no matter what he does. I'll applaud if he 374 00:22:58.799 --> 00:23:01.599 does the right thing, but I will never forget what 375 00:23:01.720 --> 00:23:05.119 he brought to our country, the precedent that he set. 376 00:23:05.640 --> 00:23:08.119 And I'm not just talking about gun control by executive 377 00:23:08.200 --> 00:23:10.640 order or take the guns into the due process later. 378 00:23:10.680 --> 00:23:13.079 I'm talking about everything that happened and the people that 379 00:23:13.200 --> 00:23:17.400 he killed with the ventilators, the rim Deserveir, the medazzelamb 380 00:23:18.599 --> 00:23:23.359 and the money he killed people with the money he 381 00:23:23.440 --> 00:23:26.119 paid the hospitals to kill people and say it was COVID, 382 00:23:28.160 --> 00:23:30.720 son of a gun. What a traitor he is to 383 00:23:30.759 --> 00:23:35.599 this country and the people who applaud that. Unlike those cases, 384 00:23:35.680 --> 00:23:40.559 Luther's arrest prompted widespread sustained outraged, and the ideological right, 385 00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:43.279 and Abbot joined a cluster of GOP officials and all 386 00:23:43.319 --> 00:23:46.440 three branches of the government clamoring for her release. After 387 00:23:46.480 --> 00:23:50.160 an emergency request from her prominent Republican attorneys, the Texas 388 00:23:50.160 --> 00:23:53.160 Supreme Court ordered it. She took it to the Supreme 389 00:23:53.200 --> 00:23:56.559 Court and won. She's become a cost a lab on 390 00:23:56.599 --> 00:24:00.720 the right and a persona nongrada on the left, bolstered 391 00:24:00.759 --> 00:24:03.440 by a half million dollars in crowdfunded support and a 392 00:24:03.480 --> 00:24:08.119 new press team of prominent GEOPE consultants. In March, as 393 00:24:08.119 --> 00:24:13.559 a new coronavirus was just starting to cause wide spread death. No, 394 00:24:13.839 --> 00:24:16.720 not widespread death, they even say in this article from 395 00:24:16.720 --> 00:24:21.720 the Texas Tribune, obviously not sympathetic to what she's doing, 396 00:24:23.200 --> 00:24:29.319 as the new coronavirus was just starting to cause widespread concern, concern. 397 00:24:29.680 --> 00:24:35.160 We locked people down because of concern, not because of death. 398 00:24:35.640 --> 00:24:39.720 It was the medical orders, the financial and financially incentivized 399 00:24:39.839 --> 00:24:45.559 medical mass murders, not even financially incentivized malpractice. It was murder. 400 00:24:46.000 --> 00:24:49.640 They knew what they were doing. I used to call 401 00:24:49.680 --> 00:24:53.480 it financially incentivized medical malpractice. We found out that they 402 00:24:53.799 --> 00:25:00.039 knew what they were doing. It was murder, but I 403 00:25:00.039 --> 00:25:06.599 had spread concern widespread. The death came afterwards, with the 404 00:25:06.799 --> 00:25:10.200 hospitals and the vaccines. She drove her boyfriend at that 405 00:25:10.240 --> 00:25:13.240 point in time, from Dallas to Galveston to board a cruz. 406 00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:15.759 I have a real good friend who's a doctor, he 407 00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:18.440 told a local news station. It's really nothing more than 408 00:25:18.440 --> 00:25:21.440 a severe cold. As panic ramped up to you in 409 00:25:21.480 --> 00:25:23.079 the end of the month. Luther was at first willing 410 00:25:23.160 --> 00:25:25.839 to tolerate the state home orders it shuttered businesses across 411 00:25:25.839 --> 00:25:28.720 the state, but by April she had changed her mind, 412 00:25:29.519 --> 00:25:32.640 insisting that she had to reopen out of economic necessity. 413 00:25:33.119 --> 00:25:35.680 Reopening my salon wasn't a political statement. It was a 414 00:25:35.720 --> 00:25:40.039 necessity for people that rely on it. Whatever her intentions 415 00:25:40.200 --> 00:25:44.720 as the Texas Tribune, she quickly made a splash in 416 00:25:44.759 --> 00:25:48.519 political circles. Her media appearances drew the attention of Rick Hire, who, 417 00:25:48.640 --> 00:25:51.880 like Luther, was a member of the Open Texas Facebook 418 00:25:51.960 --> 00:25:54.880 group that it agitated for a faster and more complete 419 00:25:54.880 --> 00:25:58.799 reopening of Texas businesses. So that's one of the reasons 420 00:25:58.799 --> 00:26:04.559 why they started having enhanced censorship on social media to 421 00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:06.960 shut down people from being able to organize it. Through that, 422 00:26:07.960 --> 00:26:10.240 he offered to use the website to support Luther, writing 423 00:26:10.240 --> 00:26:12.759 that she was the group's first patriot cause, and he 424 00:26:12.839 --> 00:26:15.960 launched the crowd funding page April the twenty third. On 425 00:26:16.039 --> 00:26:18.680 April the twenty fourth, she opened her business to medium. 426 00:26:18.680 --> 00:26:23.319 Malstrom Camera's customers waited outside. Online donations poured in, and 427 00:26:23.359 --> 00:26:25.519 so did a letter from the Dallas County Judge Clay 428 00:26:25.759 --> 00:26:31.079 Jenkins directing her to shut her her salon immediately. Luther 429 00:26:31.440 --> 00:26:35.079 ignored him, and she asked if anybody could help. Custom 430 00:26:35.079 --> 00:26:40.680 printed T shirt that said cease and assist Jenkins. Abbott 431 00:26:40.720 --> 00:26:42.839 had warned that it could be dangerous to reopen salons, 432 00:26:42.839 --> 00:26:44.640 but he also said that he wanted to do so 433 00:26:44.680 --> 00:26:46.680 as soon as possible. Luthor was one of the salon 434 00:26:46.720 --> 00:26:49.200 owners his team reached out to that week an effort 435 00:26:49.200 --> 00:26:51.960 to gather information on how they might do so safely. Again, 436 00:26:53.839 --> 00:26:57.480 she is an expert, right, medical expert. This is a 437 00:26:57.599 --> 00:27:03.599 medical lockdown. Now it's plit and about that same time. Actually, 438 00:27:03.640 --> 00:27:05.759 it was a couple couple of weeks before that that 439 00:27:05.839 --> 00:27:10.440 he got tired of people complaining about the arbitrary lockdown 440 00:27:10.920 --> 00:27:13.319 and these rules. Scott Adams, you know the guy who 441 00:27:13.400 --> 00:27:19.880 has that stupid column, Dilbert. I could, if I want 442 00:27:19.920 --> 00:27:21.799 to be imployed, I could give it a different name 443 00:27:21.920 --> 00:27:27.960 that sounds very much like that. But Scott Adams, but 444 00:27:28.079 --> 00:27:30.000 now he said, it's getting harder and hard to tell 445 00:27:30.039 --> 00:27:34.839 the freedom lovers from sociopaths. Sociopaths if you push back 446 00:27:34.839 --> 00:27:38.880 against this stuff. Scott Adams, big Trump supporter, always yeah, 447 00:27:39.160 --> 00:27:43.200 built his brand support in Trump on Trump's gotels. If 448 00:27:43.240 --> 00:27:46.920 you are a freedom lover, you're a sociopath. You shut 449 00:27:46.960 --> 00:27:51.279 down and do what you're told, said Scott Adams. I replied, 450 00:27:51.400 --> 00:27:53.519 I said it's getting harder and harder to tell the 451 00:27:54.079 --> 00:27:59.599 pragmatists from detalitarians. The group included several members of the 452 00:27:59.640 --> 00:28:02.000 Texas who would not typically go either way. To disagree 453 00:28:02.039 --> 00:28:07.279 with Abbot. State Representative James White, a Republican, said an 454 00:28:07.279 --> 00:28:10.880 all upper case enough and then he said, you're the 455 00:28:10.880 --> 00:28:15.519 only one that can uppercase stop this enough, they said, 456 00:28:15.680 --> 00:28:20.440 tweeted that at Abbot. Montgomery County Judge Mark Keo, claiming 457 00:28:20.480 --> 00:28:23.480 Abbot's directions had been unclear, said that he would allow 458 00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:27.640 all businesses to reopen. Then the Attorney General, Ken Paxton, 459 00:28:27.720 --> 00:28:29.640 this guy who's such a hero to the Maga crown, 460 00:28:29.759 --> 00:28:33.160 he is a total fraud, folks. He's got a lot 461 00:28:33.160 --> 00:28:35.759 of shady stuff in his background, but you know it 462 00:28:35.799 --> 00:28:39.799 broke down into this. Well. We got the establishment Republicans 463 00:28:39.799 --> 00:28:42.880 out here, so he must be a good guy, Ken Paxton. 464 00:28:43.079 --> 00:28:48.000 And he is an incredible demogogue, not a democrat, a demagogue. 465 00:28:49.920 --> 00:28:54.200 Ken Paxton quickly reiterated that Abbot had ordered salons to 466 00:28:54.279 --> 00:28:57.880 stay closed a directive of his office said was quote 467 00:28:57.920 --> 00:29:02.799 neither vague nor unenforceable. He was threatening people, the Republican 468 00:29:03.279 --> 00:29:08.079 Ken Paxton, the hero of the Maga people. And they'll 469 00:29:08.079 --> 00:29:11.200 do it to you again, folks. These people will do 470 00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:14.599 it to you again. On May fifth, two Texas House 471 00:29:14.640 --> 00:29:18.039 Republicans visited a Houston area barbershop, also in open defiance 472 00:29:18.079 --> 00:29:23.000 of emergency orders for illegal haircuts. One of them, Briscoe Caine, 473 00:29:23.519 --> 00:29:26.119 who was a member of Luther's legal team, called it, 474 00:29:26.200 --> 00:29:30.400 quote an act of civil disobedience. Did you ever think 475 00:29:30.440 --> 00:29:35.039 that with all Republicans in charge, Republican president of Republican governor, 476 00:29:35.079 --> 00:29:38.559 Republican Attorney general, all of them dearly loved by the 477 00:29:38.680 --> 00:29:41.200 Maga cult. Did you ever think that we would have 478 00:29:41.279 --> 00:29:44.160 to have a haircut as an act of civil disobedience? 479 00:29:44.279 --> 00:29:46.200 And of course it was happening in Michigan as well. 480 00:29:47.519 --> 00:29:54.000 There it was against Whitmer got more attention, right, So 481 00:29:54.440 --> 00:29:57.880 then she went to a judge with the courtroom. His 482 00:29:58.000 --> 00:30:01.000 name was Moyer. I think the way he pronounced his name, 483 00:30:01.000 --> 00:30:04.319 he's got an accept mark over the e. He send 484 00:30:04.359 --> 00:30:07.279 it to her to seven days in jail, but before 485 00:30:07.319 --> 00:30:09.920 doing so, he gave her an opportunity to apologize, telling 486 00:30:09.920 --> 00:30:12.039 her that if she pledged not to reopen her salon 487 00:30:12.079 --> 00:30:15.000 until emergency orders are lifted, he would consider levying only 488 00:30:15.039 --> 00:30:19.880 a fine and allowing her to avoid jail time. She said, 489 00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:24.559 I'm not going to shut the salon, defiant. By the 490 00:30:24.680 --> 00:30:27.400 end of the first week of May, Luther had retained 491 00:30:27.480 --> 00:30:31.480 too well connected GOP lawyers. As the two attorneys fought 492 00:30:31.519 --> 00:30:34.559 for her release in court, ultimately appealing to the Texas 493 00:30:34.599 --> 00:30:39.880 Supreme Court, Republican officials issued an outpouring of support. Paxton 494 00:30:40.720 --> 00:30:42.920 has now changed at this point, in just a week 495 00:30:43.000 --> 00:30:46.880 or so, from saying that the letter, the governor's order 496 00:30:48.039 --> 00:30:52.200 is not unclear and it is not unenforceable. Now, Ken 497 00:30:52.240 --> 00:30:56.960 Paxton wrote an unusual direct appeal to the Dallas Judge, 498 00:30:57.279 --> 00:30:59.640 claiming that he had abused his discretion and he should 499 00:30:59.640 --> 00:31:04.079 immediate order Luther's release. You see, if you fight these people, 500 00:31:04.200 --> 00:31:08.359 they start to back down. They start to back down. 501 00:31:09.079 --> 00:31:12.200 And at this point in time, Ken Paxton and Greg 502 00:31:12.200 --> 00:31:14.039 Abbott had wet their fingers and stuck them in the 503 00:31:14.079 --> 00:31:15.680 wind to see which way the wind was blowing, and 504 00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:17.480 it really wasn't too hard. They didn't even need to 505 00:31:17.480 --> 00:31:22.720 wet their finger. Then you had another one of these 506 00:31:25.200 --> 00:31:32.519 grifting gloryhound Republicans. Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick offered to pay 507 00:31:32.519 --> 00:31:35.799 her fine and to serve seven days of house arrest 508 00:31:35.839 --> 00:31:41.079 in place of her jail. Senates, Yeah right, I'll lock 509 00:31:41.160 --> 00:31:47.640 myself down great. Abbott then joined the chorus, more cautiously, 510 00:31:48.440 --> 00:31:51.519 saying that he had he joined Paxton and quote disagreeing 511 00:31:51.559 --> 00:31:55.279 with the excessive action by the Dallas Judge. He said 512 00:31:56.079 --> 00:32:00.960 there was already pressure building, so and it was a 513 00:32:00.960 --> 00:32:02.960 pressure that was building on Abbot. He told a radio 514 00:32:03.000 --> 00:32:07.000 interviewer that he would take longer for a potential pardon 515 00:32:07.039 --> 00:32:08.839 to go through in the state process, and it would 516 00:32:08.839 --> 00:32:11.319 for Luthor to be able to legally open up. But 517 00:32:11.319 --> 00:32:13.759 he left open the possibility of a pardon somewhere down 518 00:32:13.799 --> 00:32:17.319 the road. You see what he's doing. He's trying to 519 00:32:17.920 --> 00:32:22.160 straddle the fence placate everybody. Well, you know, yeah, would 520 00:32:22.200 --> 00:32:24.119 you partner it? Well, I think about it, but that 521 00:32:24.119 --> 00:32:25.559 would take a long time for me to do that. 522 00:32:26.000 --> 00:32:27.319 Did it take a long time for him to put 523 00:32:27.319 --> 00:32:31.000 out an order telling everybody you can't open up? He 524 00:32:31.119 --> 00:32:32.920 just did it. Did it take a long time? Now, 525 00:32:33.039 --> 00:32:37.000 he just did it right away. You know, it's just 526 00:32:37.160 --> 00:32:41.079 these people. I have no respect for these politicians. I 527 00:32:41.119 --> 00:32:45.079 don't care what party they're in. As outrage continued to mount, 528 00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:47.960 Abbot went on to Twitter and said I'll make further 529 00:32:47.960 --> 00:32:50.440 announcements about this and related issues in the morning. But 530 00:32:50.480 --> 00:32:54.640 the next day, hours before he was due at the 531 00:32:54.720 --> 00:32:59.680 White House for an appearance with President Trump, Abbitt retroactively 532 00:33:00.319 --> 00:33:06.200 the enforcement mechanism from his executive orders, decreasing that confined 533 00:33:06.799 --> 00:33:11.319 decreeing brother that confinement was no longer a possible penalty 534 00:33:11.359 --> 00:33:14.759 for violating one of them. And then he says, well, now, 535 00:33:14.839 --> 00:33:19.200 if correctly applied, this should free Luther. We're not under 536 00:33:19.200 --> 00:33:23.079 a rule of law. It is medical martial law. Well, 537 00:33:23.240 --> 00:33:25.799 yesterday you go to jail for this, but now today 538 00:33:25.799 --> 00:33:27.960 I'm going to do it because there's public pressure pushing 539 00:33:28.000 --> 00:33:30.279 back in this all it required, folks, when we stopped 540 00:33:30.279 --> 00:33:33.680 complying with this stuff, it all just kind of disappeared. 541 00:33:34.440 --> 00:33:39.039 Isn't that amazing? Mass non compliance just made the virus 542 00:33:39.079 --> 00:33:43.039 go away. It just disappeared because it was all political 543 00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:45.839 in the first place. With an hour is the point 544 00:33:45.880 --> 00:33:50.039 was moot, the all Republican Texas Supreme Court ordered Luther's 545 00:33:50.119 --> 00:33:55.599 immediate release. They were all scrambling for a cover. A 546 00:33:55.680 --> 00:33:59.960 reporter asked Deborah Burks, the White House coronavirus Response coordinator 547 00:34:00.799 --> 00:34:05.839 doctor Scarf, if she thought Texas's reopening plan was great, 548 00:34:06.759 --> 00:34:11.599 the phrase that Abbott had repeatedly attributed to her. She said, So, 549 00:34:11.800 --> 00:34:13.719 we talked about, you know, not having them in the 550 00:34:13.719 --> 00:34:17.159 first opening wave because you can't really physically distance. And 551 00:34:17.199 --> 00:34:19.880 we had that discussion and he agreed, and so we've 552 00:34:19.920 --> 00:34:25.199 moved forward together. They said, well, is Texas a role 553 00:34:25.199 --> 00:34:28.039 model for everybody? Should everybody be doing this now? Because 554 00:34:28.159 --> 00:34:31.079 we got to know, we've got to have a centralized approach, 555 00:34:31.559 --> 00:34:35.639 and she said, well, every state is different. It is 556 00:34:35.679 --> 00:34:37.960 the virus different in every state. I mean, do they 557 00:34:37.960 --> 00:34:41.719 have a Texas variant and a Washington state variant, in 558 00:34:41.760 --> 00:34:44.480 a California and an Illinois and a Michigan variant do 559 00:34:44.519 --> 00:34:46.840 they have that? Is it different in every state? No, 560 00:34:47.239 --> 00:34:53.119 what's different is the politics. And this was a pandemic 561 00:34:53.159 --> 00:34:56.800 of politics. There's never a pandemic of a virus. And 562 00:34:56.840 --> 00:34:59.639 this is why I say, the people who are medical 563 00:34:59.639 --> 00:35:03.360 profects were really slow, painfully slow to catch on to 564 00:35:03.440 --> 00:35:07.639 this stuff, painfully so people who follow politics could see 565 00:35:07.639 --> 00:35:09.679 this from the very beginning, and the people that I 566 00:35:09.719 --> 00:35:12.480 all worked with could see it. And yet they lied 567 00:35:12.519 --> 00:35:16.199 to you about it. And I'll never forget that either. 568 00:35:17.199 --> 00:35:19.239 They lied. They knew what was going on. They had 569 00:35:19.280 --> 00:35:23.599 watched this game, this flu vaccine game played annually. They 570 00:35:23.679 --> 00:35:26.480 knew about Dark Winter, they knew about Event to a One, 571 00:35:26.519 --> 00:35:29.639 they knew about all of the germ games in the middle, 572 00:35:29.679 --> 00:35:34.440 and they still pushed this panic button on people. I'll 573 00:35:34.440 --> 00:35:39.199 never forget that. Now, out of jail, Luther's already leveraging 574 00:35:39.239 --> 00:35:42.239 her new celebrity status. They said, well, she ran for 575 00:35:42.360 --> 00:35:46.239 office but didn't get elected. She said, the time Texans 576 00:35:46.280 --> 00:35:50.239 need to be treated as adults. She headlined a Laredo 577 00:35:50.320 --> 00:35:54.840 Freedom rally where she stood alongside the two Latino women 578 00:35:54.960 --> 00:35:58.280 who had hair or nail salons or something like that 579 00:35:58.920 --> 00:36:03.280 and got arrested one of them. Matta said, I never 580 00:36:03.320 --> 00:36:06.960 expected to be in this situation. Luther came on stage, 581 00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:11.159 high heeled boots and a black face mask and hugged her. 582 00:36:11.199 --> 00:36:13.599 That was the picture at the top of the article. 583 00:36:14.320 --> 00:36:17.000 She said, we're literally treated like criminals. I know I 584 00:36:17.039 --> 00:36:21.440 wasn't doing anything wrong. Luther said, don't ever apologize for working. 585 00:36:22.000 --> 00:36:26.159 Don't ever apologize, and then she took her mask off 586 00:36:26.840 --> 00:36:34.159 to great applause. Well in the aftermath of that, the 587 00:36:34.239 --> 00:36:39.760 Dallas News had an op ed piece that attacked Shelley 588 00:36:39.800 --> 00:36:42.559 Luther and defended the judge who put her in jail. 589 00:36:44.159 --> 00:36:47.920 The judge who jailed Dallas salon owner Shelley Luther was 590 00:36:48.000 --> 00:36:51.920 upholding the rule of law. That's the title of the article. No, 591 00:36:52.280 --> 00:36:56.599 there was no law, Dallas News. It was medical martial law. 592 00:36:58.079 --> 00:37:03.599 And is you know, are we going to operate under 593 00:37:04.519 --> 00:37:07.760 a judge? Dread type of society? I am the law. 594 00:37:08.119 --> 00:37:12.159 Remember that Sylvester stallone did it? I am the law 595 00:37:12.559 --> 00:37:16.159 whateverster goes, because I'm a judge. Well, we had a judge, 596 00:37:16.199 --> 00:37:18.239 Clay Jenkins, and then we had another judge who had 597 00:37:18.239 --> 00:37:21.400 a little courtroom and they were the law. Or was 598 00:37:21.440 --> 00:37:24.159 it Greg Abbott who was the law? Or was it 599 00:37:24.239 --> 00:37:27.000 Ken Paxton who was a law or Lieutenant Governor Dan 600 00:37:27.039 --> 00:37:30.880 Patrick who was the law? Was it the Supreme Court? 601 00:37:31.360 --> 00:37:34.559 All of these people Republicans except for Clay Jenkins and 602 00:37:34.599 --> 00:37:40.480 that judge. Of the two judges different offices, everybody else 603 00:37:40.599 --> 00:37:45.119 was all Republican from Trump on down. And there was 604 00:37:45.159 --> 00:37:48.119 no rule of law. That's the biggest issue. It was 605 00:37:48.199 --> 00:37:53.119 medical martial law. These orders were issued to protect all 606 00:37:53.159 --> 00:37:57.079 citizens from the hazards of a deadly virus. Prove it. 607 00:37:58.400 --> 00:38:01.360 You didn't care about it, deadly disease. I don't know 608 00:38:01.400 --> 00:38:05.519 if it's a virus whatever ebola is, but they didn't 609 00:38:05.519 --> 00:38:10.559 care about that. And this is the kind of mental 610 00:38:10.639 --> 00:38:14.480 derangement that we have seen and we'll see with the 611 00:38:14.480 --> 00:38:17.480 climate nonsense. We got to have you do this because 612 00:38:17.480 --> 00:38:20.960 everybody's lives are in danger. Well, I'll tell you, when 613 00:38:21.000 --> 00:38:24.320 we live under dictatorship, everybody's lives are in danger. So 614 00:38:24.360 --> 00:38:28.960 where are we today, Well, on Tuesday, after running several 615 00:38:28.960 --> 00:38:33.079 times and losing, Shelley Luther has now won Salon owner 616 00:38:33.159 --> 00:38:39.599 jailed amid COVID lockdown. When's election, Shelley Luther has achieved 617 00:38:39.639 --> 00:38:42.960 resounding victory in Texas House District sixty two, captured over 618 00:38:43.079 --> 00:38:47.320 seventy five percent of the vote, decisively defeating the Democrat. 619 00:38:49.079 --> 00:38:52.440 And again, the name of her business was Salon a 620 00:38:52.519 --> 00:38:55.280 la Mode. And when all this was happening, she put 621 00:38:55.360 --> 00:39:01.320 up a hashtag remember the Alamode. They knew how to 622 00:39:01.360 --> 00:39:05.639 market it too, right. She has sought election in North 623 00:39:05.679 --> 00:39:09.280 Texas three times. After an unsuccessful bid for the state 624 00:39:09.400 --> 00:39:12.239 Senate in twenty twenty and a defeat in the twenty 625 00:39:12.280 --> 00:39:15.679 twenty two Republican primary for the House District sixty two, 626 00:39:16.519 --> 00:39:20.920 she made a comeback by defeating the incumbent in the 627 00:39:20.920 --> 00:39:24.880 March fifth primary, paving her way to victory in the 628 00:39:24.960 --> 00:39:29.960 general election. And so where does that leave us today? Well, 629 00:39:30.760 --> 00:39:35.880 when we look what is coming, we've already had Robert Redfield, 630 00:39:36.440 --> 00:39:43.679 who is dearly beloved now by Robert Robert Redford RFK 631 00:39:43.920 --> 00:39:48.840 Junior Robert Kennedy. He's dear Robert Redfield is loved by 632 00:39:49.119 --> 00:39:52.800 Robert Kennedy because of a little bit of flattery. That's 633 00:39:52.800 --> 00:39:56.840 all it takes, evidently for these narcissistic politicians. And look, 634 00:39:56.960 --> 00:40:00.119 Trump may be the most narcissistic politician we've had, but 635 00:40:00.199 --> 00:40:06.679 they are all narcissists. So why undetected bird flu cases 636 00:40:07.280 --> 00:40:11.840 forced the CDC to alter testing guidelines? Is it going 637 00:40:11.880 --> 00:40:16.000 to be rinse and repeat now from Redfield? Is it 638 00:40:16.079 --> 00:40:18.039 going to be rinse and repeat with the Trump administration. 639 00:40:18.119 --> 00:40:23.000 The CDC unveiled updated recommendations yesterday after a new study 640 00:40:23.199 --> 00:40:26.239 of one hundred and fifteen dairy farm workers in Colorado 641 00:40:26.239 --> 00:40:28.800 and Michigan, which found that seven percent of them appeared 642 00:40:28.840 --> 00:40:32.000 to have been infected with bird flu, but only half 643 00:40:32.159 --> 00:40:39.599 of those workers recalled having symptoms. We got one hundred 644 00:40:39.639 --> 00:40:42.159 and fifteen dairy farm workers that have bird flu, but 645 00:40:42.440 --> 00:40:46.039 they don't even know how did they know that they 646 00:40:46.039 --> 00:40:50.519 had it? Yeah, the PCR nonsense. If we don't debunk 647 00:40:50.719 --> 00:40:53.920 the PCR thing, folks, they will heck dress forever. That's 648 00:40:53.960 --> 00:40:58.400 a key thing for people to understand the PCR. You know, 649 00:40:58.559 --> 00:41:00.519 we've got to debunk the CO two and we've got 650 00:41:00.519 --> 00:41:03.360 to debunk the PCR. These are the tools of tyranny 651 00:41:03.920 --> 00:41:10.199 and of propaganda and of muddying the water fear. So 652 00:41:10.599 --> 00:41:14.360 these people, none of them were sick. None of them 653 00:41:14.519 --> 00:41:20.679 were sick. They had a PCR test. A few of them, 654 00:41:20.760 --> 00:41:23.000 just a few said yeah, you know, you got anything 655 00:41:23.039 --> 00:41:25.840 at all? Anything? Yeah, we got this positive PCR test. 656 00:41:25.920 --> 00:41:29.320 Can you think of anything that you're feeling that is unusual. Well, 657 00:41:29.320 --> 00:41:31.559 I got a little bit of itchiness in my eyes 658 00:41:31.639 --> 00:41:34.320 and they're a little bit pink iye, okay, we'll call 659 00:41:34.360 --> 00:41:40.199 that bird flu, no fever, no respiratory illness, but we'll 660 00:41:40.199 --> 00:41:43.199 call it bird flu. Pink eye, pink ie one of 661 00:41:43.280 --> 00:41:46.159 the most common things, perhaps even more common than the 662 00:41:46.199 --> 00:41:48.880 common cold or maybe you know, if you're definitely if 663 00:41:48.880 --> 00:41:51.960 you're working on a dairy farm, working with animals, if 664 00:41:52.000 --> 00:41:53.920 you don't keep your hands clean, you rub your eyes, 665 00:41:53.960 --> 00:41:55.639 you're going to get it. Used to get it all 666 00:41:55.679 --> 00:41:58.599 the time when I was in elementary school in Florida. 667 00:41:58.639 --> 00:42:02.840 We didn't have air conditioning when I was going to school, 668 00:42:03.159 --> 00:42:06.079 but we certainly did have a lot of gnats and 669 00:42:06.360 --> 00:42:10.000 with the open windows, and we got a lot of 670 00:42:10.519 --> 00:42:17.079 pink eye then. And so this is the pronouncement from 671 00:42:17.119 --> 00:42:24.280 the CDC's principal deputy director, principal deputy director at a bureaucracy, 672 00:42:24.360 --> 00:42:28.599 they've got We in public health need to cast a 673 00:42:28.639 --> 00:42:31.079 wider net in terms of who was offered a test 674 00:42:31.800 --> 00:42:34.760 so that we can identify, treat, and isolate those individuals. No, 675 00:42:34.840 --> 00:42:38.519 so we can pretend that there's a pandemic. Examples of 676 00:42:38.559 --> 00:42:41.679 high risk exposure include being splashed with raw milk from 677 00:42:41.719 --> 00:42:44.760 an infected cast. See, it always comes back to their agendas. 678 00:42:44.760 --> 00:42:48.800 We got to stop raw milk. You remember back in 679 00:42:48.840 --> 00:42:51.920 twenty twenty who according to NPR and the CDC, and 680 00:42:52.280 --> 00:42:54.559 I remember MPR published at many many times, but it 681 00:42:54.599 --> 00:42:57.320 was a coming from the CDC. The riskiest thing you 682 00:42:57.360 --> 00:43:02.280 could do was to attend church. Remember that that was 683 00:43:02.320 --> 00:43:08.679 the highest risk category. But you know now high risk 684 00:43:08.719 --> 00:43:12.679 categories raw milk kind of like they've got targeted things 685 00:43:12.719 --> 00:43:16.079 that are coming after almost like that, the less screwm 686 00:43:16.119 --> 00:43:18.679 we give this virus to run talking about bird flu, now, 687 00:43:19.639 --> 00:43:22.559 the fewer chances it has to cause harm or to change. 688 00:43:22.960 --> 00:43:25.360 And the best way to limit the virus's room to 689 00:43:25.519 --> 00:43:29.440 run is to test, identify, treat, and isolate as many 690 00:43:29.480 --> 00:43:32.480 cases as possible in humans. So the CDC updated recommendations, 691 00:43:32.519 --> 00:43:34.199 based in part on their study of one hundred and 692 00:43:34.239 --> 00:43:38.239 fifteen dairy workers in Colorado and Michigan. Blood tests found 693 00:43:38.280 --> 00:43:40.760 that eight workers had been infected with bird flu, but 694 00:43:40.840 --> 00:43:44.599 only four of those workers recalled having symptoms. Four out 695 00:43:44.639 --> 00:43:49.199 of one hundred and fifteen. Is that rare? Rare? Is 696 00:43:49.239 --> 00:43:52.119 that rare? Right? If they gave a vaccine to one 697 00:43:52.159 --> 00:43:55.039 hundred and fifteen people and they dropped dead, four of 698 00:43:55.079 --> 00:43:58.519 them drop dead, if act, you'd say it's rare. Or 699 00:43:58.519 --> 00:44:02.000 if that's some other horrific lifelong condition, it's rare. I 700 00:44:02.000 --> 00:44:04.840 don't care about that, right, But only for these people 701 00:44:04.880 --> 00:44:09.079 even had symptoms. What was the symptoms? Oh, the symptoms 702 00:44:09.119 --> 00:44:14.400 were red and draining and itchy eyes, pink eye. They 703 00:44:14.400 --> 00:44:18.039 tested one hundred and fifteen people and blow it up 704 00:44:18.119 --> 00:44:21.320 by a trillion times because now they have made the 705 00:44:21.360 --> 00:44:29.960 PCR tests even more absurdly cranked up, and they identify 706 00:44:30.079 --> 00:44:32.440 this whatever it is, bird flu, and again I don't 707 00:44:32.519 --> 00:44:35.360 They don't have a virus. This virus stuff, folks, is 708 00:44:35.400 --> 00:44:38.760 as stupid as the CO two stuff. They don't have 709 00:44:38.800 --> 00:44:41.559 a virus. They've got a computer model of some genetic 710 00:44:41.599 --> 00:44:43.760 strain that they're looking for, and then they take a 711 00:44:43.800 --> 00:44:45.519 sample of people and they blow it up by one 712 00:44:45.599 --> 00:44:49.280 hundred by one point one trillion times, and out of 713 00:44:49.280 --> 00:44:51.880 one hundred and fifteen people they get eight people got 714 00:44:51.920 --> 00:44:54.159 a match. Only four of them have got pink eye. 715 00:44:57.360 --> 00:45:03.039 So bird flu has spread rapidly across the US dairies. 716 00:45:03.039 --> 00:45:05.480 This has coming from USA today, by the way, since 717 00:45:05.519 --> 00:45:10.320 being detected, farm workers in multiple states have been infected. 718 00:45:11.639 --> 00:45:19.079 Absolutely absolute liars, They're absolutely undeterred by reality. They'll even 719 00:45:19.280 --> 00:45:23.440 report at the end of the article what actually happened. Really, 720 00:45:23.519 --> 00:45:26.920 one hundred and fifteen people tested, eight of them said positive. 721 00:45:27.079 --> 00:45:29.440 Only four of them had anything and it was just 722 00:45:29.480 --> 00:45:32.559 pink eye. But now they're back to the fear mode. 723 00:45:32.920 --> 00:45:35.880 They'll ended up on the fear mode. Its spread rapidly 724 00:45:36.719 --> 00:45:41.000 across the world. And so then if the last sentence 725 00:45:41.039 --> 00:45:44.480 of the article, milk is safe to drink once it's pasteurized, 726 00:45:45.559 --> 00:45:49.119 stop raw milk. We don't need to stop fentanyl. We 727 00:45:49.239 --> 00:45:54.840 need to stop raw milk. Yeah. Well, North American house 728 00:45:54.880 --> 00:45:57.599 hipost says, My favorite Walmart moment was walking in mask 729 00:45:57.840 --> 00:46:01.519 free the greeter. I was going to say something, and 730 00:46:01.559 --> 00:46:05.400 I channeled my inner Blues brothers and said, don't you 731 00:46:05.559 --> 00:46:12.840 say a fornicating word. Uh. Yeah, I had to had 732 00:46:12.880 --> 00:46:16.239 that issue with a security guard at the bank. Wun't 733 00:46:16.320 --> 00:46:22.440 let me in and uh and I argued with him 734 00:46:22.519 --> 00:46:25.559 and I said, I said, you don't believe it either. 735 00:46:25.880 --> 00:46:29.239 You don't even have your little cloth mask over your nose. 736 00:46:29.880 --> 00:46:33.199 And he looked like the thing go wrong. I knew, 737 00:46:33.199 --> 00:46:34.920 we all knew. There are cameras all over the place. 738 00:46:35.559 --> 00:46:38.280 It's this mask up over his nose sheepishly and was like, 739 00:46:38.320 --> 00:46:41.559 what a choke? Get me the manager. I needed to 740 00:46:41.559 --> 00:46:43.079 talk to somebody how I get my money out of 741 00:46:43.119 --> 00:46:46.920 this stupid place. Bluten. I knew it was nonsense from 742 00:46:46.920 --> 00:46:49.559 the get go, especially when Milania was still getting her 743 00:46:49.599 --> 00:46:54.199 nails done walking after lockdowns. Yeah, her nails and whatever else. 744 00:46:54.239 --> 00:46:59.119 I mean, you know that's this walking plastic surgery factory. Ambergold, 745 00:46:59.159 --> 00:47:01.800 thank you for the tip. I appreciate that. And Bernie 746 00:47:02.079 --> 00:47:05.119 D says in the nineties, doctor P. Gilbert predicted a 747 00:47:05.159 --> 00:47:08.880 medical and pharmaceutical tyranny. I was young and thinking, how 748 00:47:08.920 --> 00:47:13.519 can somebody force me to take medication? Well? Now we know, 749 00:47:14.599 --> 00:47:16.599 now we know, don't we We'll be right back. 750 00:47:29.719 --> 00:47:35.960 Using free speech to free minds. It's the David Knight Show. 751 00:47:37.920 --> 00:47:41.280 Yeah, well, this is from Reason magazine. So the next 752 00:47:41.320 --> 00:47:47.840 president should abolish everything they've just I like that. I 753 00:47:47.920 --> 00:47:51.960 hardly endorse that message. Let's just abolish everything, Abolish the 754 00:47:52.239 --> 00:47:57.000 fed federal government its entirety. They have put out and 755 00:47:57.079 --> 00:48:01.400 abolished everything issue that Reason magazine. They said, pick at random. 756 00:48:02.320 --> 00:48:04.159 And this is a quote. This is a quote from 757 00:48:04.159 --> 00:48:08.559 Milton Freeman who said this decades ago. He said, pick 758 00:48:08.599 --> 00:48:11.480 at random. Any three letters from the alphabet, put them 759 00:48:11.480 --> 00:48:14.119 in any order, and you'll have an acronym designating a 760 00:48:14.119 --> 00:48:18.599 federal agency that we can do without. I'd never seen 761 00:48:18.599 --> 00:48:22.119 that quote before. That's one to remember. I love that. Yeah, 762 00:48:22.159 --> 00:48:25.000 any three letters, put them in random order, and you'll 763 00:48:25.000 --> 00:48:27.400 have a corresponding federal agency that we can do without. 764 00:48:27.760 --> 00:48:31.519 And which also he doesn't say, but it is not 765 00:48:31.599 --> 00:48:36.360 in the constitution. Not a specific doesn't have the authority 766 00:48:36.400 --> 00:48:40.360 to exist. Trillions and taxpayer dollars in decades, even centuries 767 00:48:40.400 --> 00:48:44.480 of meddling, and these agencies have hampered economic growth, They 768 00:48:44.480 --> 00:48:47.760 have violated human rights, they have eroded civil liberties, and 769 00:48:47.800 --> 00:48:50.159 they have somehow managed to make air travel more frustrating, 770 00:48:50.239 --> 00:48:56.320 education more expensive, and drug enforcement more violent. Education is 771 00:48:56.360 --> 00:48:59.800 not just more expensive, it's now pubic education instead of 772 00:49:00.000 --> 00:49:05.199 public education. What follows is an idiosyncratic, non exhaustive list 773 00:49:05.760 --> 00:49:08.840 of parts of government that we truly do without. And 774 00:49:08.880 --> 00:49:13.639 we've left untouched some functions specifically mentioned in the Constitution, 775 00:49:13.800 --> 00:49:18.559 such as the postal Service, and we have confined just 776 00:49:18.599 --> 00:49:20.960 to the federal level, not to the state and local level. 777 00:49:23.440 --> 00:49:28.320 They said, even though we didn't put it in, there 778 00:49:28.360 --> 00:49:31.760 is no love lost for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. 779 00:49:31.800 --> 00:49:42.280 But we ran out of pages. They said, that's long list, alphabetically, Amtrak, Antitrust, Army, borders, DEA, 780 00:49:42.719 --> 00:49:47.079 Department of Education, Department of Transportation, EPA, FCC because you know, 781 00:49:47.079 --> 00:49:49.760 we're not supposed to have a standing army. We're supposed 782 00:49:49.760 --> 00:49:54.079 to have a militia, right, the FDA, the Federal Reserve, 783 00:49:54.199 --> 00:49:59.760 the Federal Minimum WADS, the Federal Student Loans, FEMA, FEYA, ICE, IRS, 784 00:50:00.039 --> 00:50:05.039 income Tax, National Park Service, NSACIA, Obamacare, Small Business Administration, 785 00:50:05.440 --> 00:50:09.360 Social Security, TSA, Bureau of Alcohol to back on farms, 786 00:50:09.800 --> 00:50:13.920 abolish them all. I hardly agree. In Tennessee, a push 787 00:50:14.079 --> 00:50:19.760 to stop statewide property taxes before they start. And this 788 00:50:19.840 --> 00:50:23.559 is a good idea, and we're starting to see people 789 00:50:23.679 --> 00:50:27.480 get the idea we're going to stop property taxes where 790 00:50:27.519 --> 00:50:29.119 they're going to use it to steal our homes. These 791 00:50:29.159 --> 00:50:36.119 carpetbackers out of Davos at the un and their puppets 792 00:50:36.800 --> 00:50:40.639 in the federal government. Senate joint resolution would prohibit the 793 00:50:40.960 --> 00:50:45.079 Tennessee General Assembly from levying, authorizing, or otherwise permitting a 794 00:50:45.119 --> 00:50:48.920 state tax on property. This is coming from Tennessee Star 795 00:50:49.039 --> 00:50:52.559 by the way. It would specifically amend Article two, section 796 00:50:52.599 --> 00:50:56.800 twenty eight of the Tennessee Constitution, which currently authorizes taxation 797 00:50:57.000 --> 00:51:00.360 of all property according to its value by tax any 798 00:51:00.400 --> 00:51:05.840 taxing authority, including state, counties and municipalities. During the most 799 00:51:05.880 --> 00:51:09.559 recent legislative session, the resolution passed both the Tennessee Senate 800 00:51:09.760 --> 00:51:12.440 by a twenty six to six vote and the House 801 00:51:12.480 --> 00:51:16.480 of Representatives by an eighty one to one vote. Wasn't 802 00:51:16.480 --> 00:51:18.960 even close, So it looks like Tennessee will not be 803 00:51:19.079 --> 00:51:24.480 adding a property tax. Hopefully they're going to thou to 804 00:51:24.559 --> 00:51:26.119 put it in the constitution. They will have to put 805 00:51:26.119 --> 00:51:29.599 it on the ballot and it will be presented voters 806 00:51:29.639 --> 00:51:33.880 in twenty twenty six, and hopefully the voter's not stupid 807 00:51:34.000 --> 00:51:38.400 enough to want to tax themselves. But every time I 808 00:51:38.519 --> 00:51:44.199 see a bond issue for schools, it seems to always pass. 809 00:51:45.199 --> 00:51:47.119 It's like, if you put something out there and call 810 00:51:47.159 --> 00:51:51.360 it bondage, I'm not voting for it. Okay, just I'm 811 00:51:51.519 --> 00:51:55.039 again bondage. I don't like bondage to the state. And 812 00:51:55.079 --> 00:51:58.519 that's what this is, bondage in order to pay for 813 00:51:58.559 --> 00:52:03.039 what now have become pubic schools. We haven't talked about 814 00:52:03.039 --> 00:52:09.239 this for a while, but when the devastation that happened 815 00:52:09.280 --> 00:52:12.599 in the recovery and the suffering is going on in 816 00:52:12.880 --> 00:52:17.320 western North Carolina, is really everybody's moved on. It's past 817 00:52:17.599 --> 00:52:20.679 their tension span. Nobody's really talking about it anymore. Everybody's 818 00:52:20.679 --> 00:52:24.840 talking about, well, what did Trump have for lunch today? Well, 819 00:52:24.880 --> 00:52:29.239 he put in the first female White House chief of staff. 820 00:52:29.960 --> 00:52:34.320 Whoop do you do? And they're i mean, top news everywhere, 821 00:52:35.199 --> 00:52:39.679 Fox News, the Virtue Signal, Identity, politics and artists and stuff. Look, 822 00:52:40.119 --> 00:52:42.800 I think that she probably will be very good at 823 00:52:42.800 --> 00:52:47.159 her position. She is a very sharp political consultant. She 824 00:52:47.360 --> 00:52:50.440 was running his campaign, has been involved in a lot 825 00:52:50.480 --> 00:52:53.320 of political campaigns. I don't like the people that she 826 00:52:53.360 --> 00:52:57.400 hangs out with. I think she is she's a Nikki 827 00:52:57.440 --> 00:53:01.960 Haley Pompeo type of person. It's another indication of where 828 00:53:02.000 --> 00:53:05.440 he's going. But she was somebody who ran his campaign, 829 00:53:05.559 --> 00:53:11.280 did a good job, and she is really there was 830 00:53:11.360 --> 00:53:15.320 a split between her and DeSantis, so she really hates DeSantis. 831 00:53:15.320 --> 00:53:19.679 People who are trying to float lad A Poe as 832 00:53:19.719 --> 00:53:22.119 head of FDA or HHS. I forget which one they 833 00:53:22.119 --> 00:53:25.159 wanted to put him in, as that probably ain't gonna happen. 834 00:53:26.440 --> 00:53:28.960 Probably not going to get friends of DeSantis put in 835 00:53:29.199 --> 00:53:33.239 with this lady in charge. I can't remember what her 836 00:53:33.880 --> 00:53:37.400 married name is. She was Pat Somemral's daughter, which is 837 00:53:37.480 --> 00:53:41.480 kind of interesting. Always like listening to Pat Somerrawl's voice. 838 00:53:41.480 --> 00:53:43.039 He had a great voice. He did a lot of 839 00:53:43.079 --> 00:53:45.360 commentary on a lot of different sports, not just football. 840 00:53:46.079 --> 00:53:48.800 But anyway, you know, she's she's there based on merit. 841 00:53:49.000 --> 00:53:51.559 She's not a DEI pick, but the press is playing 842 00:53:51.559 --> 00:53:54.960 it that way, playing it up as a DEI pick. 843 00:53:56.400 --> 00:53:58.760 And I'm not saying criticizing him for being DEI. I'm 844 00:53:58.800 --> 00:54:03.239 talking about the conservative and Maga media are saying, well, look, 845 00:54:03.280 --> 00:54:04.960 he pointed a woman. Don't you like him better? 846 00:54:05.000 --> 00:54:05.199 Now? 847 00:54:07.599 --> 00:54:10.280 So let's talk about what's happening in western North Carolina. 848 00:54:10.719 --> 00:54:14.480 I forty, connecting Tennessee and North Carolina is expected to 849 00:54:14.480 --> 00:54:18.320 be opening by New Years. So what they're saying about 850 00:54:18.320 --> 00:54:21.159 one hundred days after this happened. Since Hurricane the detect 851 00:54:21.280 --> 00:54:25.039 the Tennessee Department of Transportation has worked to reopen. They're 852 00:54:25.079 --> 00:54:28.119 part of I forty to re establish connection for local traffic. 853 00:54:28.199 --> 00:54:31.880 Not sure what's happening in North Carolina, they said. However, 854 00:54:31.920 --> 00:54:35.400 the nine mile stretch of the Gorge connecting Tennessee and 855 00:54:35.440 --> 00:54:40.280 North Carolina remains closed. North Carolina Department Transportation said it 856 00:54:40.320 --> 00:54:43.280 is still trying to stabilize the nine mile stretch to 857 00:54:43.320 --> 00:54:45.400 open up enough space for vehicles to travel at forty 858 00:54:45.400 --> 00:54:48.719 miles an hour in one lane in each direction. What 859 00:54:48.800 --> 00:54:51.920 a nightmare that must be to try to have to 860 00:54:51.960 --> 00:54:56.320 go through there. But again, it just completely wiped out 861 00:54:56.360 --> 00:54:59.159 the roadbeds that are there. It's a temporary project to 862 00:54:59.159 --> 00:55:02.320 restore traffic, expected to be completed by January the first, 863 00:55:02.440 --> 00:55:06.400 twenty twenty five. And so as that is happening, you 864 00:55:06.559 --> 00:55:10.079 go back a couple of weeks now the middle of October, 865 00:55:10.920 --> 00:55:16.000 and of course the government, state and federal North Carolina 866 00:55:16.039 --> 00:55:20.159 was a wall and then when they shut up, things 867 00:55:20.159 --> 00:55:22.960 got worse. And it wasn't just FEMA where things got worse. 868 00:55:23.599 --> 00:55:27.320 It was also some local officials. I'm in charge here, 869 00:55:27.440 --> 00:55:29.079 you know the type of thing you know, we've seen that. 870 00:55:29.159 --> 00:55:34.960 We saw that with a local sheriff who started confiscating supplies. 871 00:55:35.199 --> 00:55:37.280 You know, you can't put that here, and that type 872 00:55:37.320 --> 00:55:41.760 of thing, so bad people, or the or the fire 873 00:55:41.840 --> 00:55:45.800 chief who told the volunteer helicopter guy, you know you can't. 874 00:55:46.199 --> 00:55:48.960 You brought this woman out, You can't go back and 875 00:55:49.000 --> 00:55:51.320 get her husband. You got to leave him there. It's like, 876 00:55:52.000 --> 00:55:55.719 or I'm going to have you arrested anyway. So there 877 00:55:55.719 --> 00:55:59.440 were some coal miners that came in I think they're 878 00:55:59.440 --> 00:56:02.519 from westfordin I don't remember now, and they took pictures 879 00:56:02.519 --> 00:56:04.639 of themselves. They brought in heavy equipment and other things 880 00:56:04.639 --> 00:56:10.239 like that. They're rebuilding some roads there, volunteer rebuilding the roads. 881 00:56:10.320 --> 00:56:12.079 Just one of the things some people say, well, the government, 882 00:56:12.119 --> 00:56:13.599 what are we going to do if we don't have government, 883 00:56:13.639 --> 00:56:15.440 who will build the roads, who will maintain the roads. 884 00:56:15.480 --> 00:56:18.000 It's like, sorry, they're not building or maintaining the roads now, 885 00:56:18.920 --> 00:56:20.840 and especially when something of this happens, so These are 886 00:56:20.920 --> 00:56:24.920 volunteers who are coming in redoing the roadbed and working 887 00:56:24.960 --> 00:56:28.760 on that. And then they had an official come over 888 00:56:28.800 --> 00:56:32.599 to them. Local official said you got to stop, all right. 889 00:56:32.559 --> 00:56:33.360 So let me ask you this. 890 00:56:33.400 --> 00:56:37.880 So we have the locals here, no excusa exactly, it's 891 00:56:37.920 --> 00:56:38.440 the government. 892 00:56:38.480 --> 00:56:40.239 Do you know. Do you know who invited us. 893 00:56:40.400 --> 00:56:42.320 We have friends that said that there is an event 894 00:56:42.400 --> 00:56:43.840 going on in late Lord and they said that they 895 00:56:43.880 --> 00:56:45.159 want us to be there or we allowed to go 896 00:56:45.199 --> 00:56:45.480 to that. 897 00:56:45.760 --> 00:56:49.719 Yeah, we just listen to you. 898 00:56:50.599 --> 00:56:53.400 We're all tired, if we're all exhausted, like, we don't 899 00:56:53.440 --> 00:56:54.320 want to piss you off. 900 00:56:54.320 --> 00:56:56.039 It's like the government comes in a daily and a 901 00:56:56.119 --> 00:56:58.000 dollar short and starts waving clipboards around. 902 00:56:58.000 --> 00:56:59.000 None other people here care. 903 00:56:59.119 --> 00:57:01.400 We don't care. Tell you what time I arrived on 904 00:57:01.440 --> 00:57:03.800 Saturday morning after half I tell you. 905 00:57:03.719 --> 00:57:06.559 I got over one hundred trees, damn. And he's telling 906 00:57:06.599 --> 00:57:07.280 them they got to leave. 907 00:57:07.360 --> 00:57:07.840 And I know what. 908 00:57:07.960 --> 00:57:09.119 They can't fix anyone roads. 909 00:57:09.239 --> 00:57:10.719 Let us help you what We're here to help. That's 910 00:57:10.719 --> 00:57:11.360 why we're here. 911 00:57:11.639 --> 00:57:15.159 But listen, they said that they wouldn't get road through 912 00:57:15.159 --> 00:57:16.199 their people that can't. 913 00:57:16.079 --> 00:57:16.840 Get to their houses. 914 00:57:16.880 --> 00:57:19.280 And I apologize for custom in the next four or 915 00:57:19.280 --> 00:57:21.440 five years. They said they can't get got through there 916 00:57:21.480 --> 00:57:22.639 in the next nine years. 917 00:57:22.840 --> 00:57:24.280 And now we have people that are able to go 918 00:57:24.320 --> 00:57:26.360 to their homes and or we're dealing. 919 00:57:26.360 --> 00:57:29.559 We're delegitimizing and undermining the credentials of the government. So 920 00:57:29.559 --> 00:57:30.920 now they're going to come here and try to make 921 00:57:30.920 --> 00:57:31.400 it seem like. 922 00:57:31.360 --> 00:57:37.000 They have purpose. Not true. I just told you you 923 00:57:37.000 --> 00:57:41.039 can't do that though. That's it's not because you're in 924 00:57:41.039 --> 00:57:44.480 the mind of my credentials. Uh, what we have here, 925 00:57:44.920 --> 00:57:48.679 it's a failure to communicate. What'd you think that's gonna 926 00:57:48.679 --> 00:57:50.960 get you? Uh, we go out there and build a road. 927 00:57:51.079 --> 00:57:52.639 What do you think that's gonna happen to my job? 928 00:57:52.679 --> 00:57:54.920 If you go out there and build a road. Somebody 929 00:57:55.000 --> 00:57:59.400 put this up and reply to it. Car versus a road. 930 00:58:00.039 --> 00:58:01.760 It shows a picture of a car. It's like a 931 00:58:01.840 --> 00:58:05.480 transparent picture. You see all the engine and the suspension, 932 00:58:05.519 --> 00:58:07.280 all the rest of this stuff, says one of the 933 00:58:07.320 --> 00:58:10.920 most complex machines in human history, built by hundreds of companies, 934 00:58:11.000 --> 00:58:14.679 easy to repair in your own garage. Then underneath it 935 00:58:14.719 --> 00:58:16.960 they show a straight, flat road. And they said, here's 936 00:58:17.039 --> 00:58:20.000 a flat thing that is far too complicated for anyone 937 00:58:20.039 --> 00:58:24.239 to try without the magic of government. Yeah, that's what 938 00:58:24.280 --> 00:58:30.360 we're really talking about. So again, it's the it's the 939 00:58:30.519 --> 00:58:33.480 people who are sticking around, the Men of Nights, the 940 00:58:33.559 --> 00:58:37.639 amasure there. They're building wooden shelters and anything. Elon Musk 941 00:58:37.920 --> 00:58:39.960 could bring in some of these things and put them 942 00:58:40.039 --> 00:58:41.800 up overnight, he's not going to do any of it. 943 00:58:41.880 --> 00:58:45.239 He's spending his money buying the presidency. By the way, 944 00:58:45.320 --> 00:58:47.599 when we look at what's happening, and we'll be talking 945 00:58:47.639 --> 00:58:52.039 about this and many other issues when Eric Peters joins US. 946 00:58:52.199 --> 00:58:58.800 Nissan another company that is being killed by the ev bug, 947 00:58:59.760 --> 00:59:05.320 the electronic virus they all caught. They're being spread around 948 00:59:05.360 --> 00:59:08.760 by the government with his dirty cash. They're spreading around 949 00:59:08.800 --> 00:59:11.679 this electronic virus to all the car companies to kill them. 950 00:59:12.000 --> 00:59:16.960 It's just accelerating faster than they expected. Nissan is going 951 00:59:16.960 --> 00:59:19.000 to have to cut nine thousand jobs. We've got Volktag 952 00:59:19.079 --> 00:59:21.320 and cutting jobs and Germany and all the rest of stuff. 953 00:59:21.639 --> 00:59:25.239 And they said the CEO is they're going to cut 954 00:59:25.320 --> 00:59:27.519 nine thousand jobs. And the CEO has said he's going 955 00:59:27.559 --> 00:59:31.079 to reduce his pay by fifty percent as this company 956 00:59:31.159 --> 00:59:39.119 faces severe situation. CEO Makoto Uchidah offered to immediately begin 957 00:59:39.199 --> 00:59:43.000 forfeiting half of his monthly compensation. Well that's nice. And 958 00:59:43.079 --> 00:59:44.519 I looked at it, and it's like, I wonder if 959 00:59:44.559 --> 00:59:47.400 he'll be able to survive on that half of the compensation, 960 00:59:47.440 --> 00:59:50.639 because I imagine he's pretty highly compensated. And so I 961 00:59:50.679 --> 00:59:52.280 looked in the article. They didn't have anything about it. 962 00:59:52.280 --> 00:59:55.800 So I started looking and all these articles everywhere saying 963 00:59:55.800 --> 00:59:57.440 the same thing. He's going to cut half his pace, 964 00:59:57.440 --> 01:00:00.079 He's going to cut well, what is his pay? You 965 01:00:00.079 --> 01:00:01.199 need to know if this guy is going to be 966 01:00:01.239 --> 01:00:04.400 able to make it or not. You know, I'm worried 967 01:00:04.400 --> 01:00:09.559 about him. I had to dig and I found some 968 01:00:09.719 --> 01:00:13.159 articles about a year ago that at that time his 969 01:00:13.280 --> 01:00:17.199 pay was four point four million dollars a year. He 970 01:00:17.320 --> 01:00:20.119 might be able to make it on two point two million. 971 01:00:20.280 --> 01:00:23.239 I don't know no word as to what kind of 972 01:00:23.239 --> 01:00:25.800 austerity he's going to have make. I have to sell 973 01:00:25.880 --> 01:00:29.400 a few of his villas or something somewhere. And then 974 01:00:29.519 --> 01:00:35.280 the German government has just collapsed. You know, everybody's so excited, 975 01:00:35.360 --> 01:00:37.960 Oh what's happy? Days are here again? And so is 976 01:00:38.000 --> 01:00:41.320 Donald Trump. And we're so happy as Eric and I 977 01:00:41.360 --> 01:00:47.199 were talking about yesterday, not Eric Tony. Tony Ardterman and 978 01:00:47.280 --> 01:00:49.840 I were talking about. He said, yeah, everybody's really excited 979 01:00:49.880 --> 01:00:53.360 about the stock market. Crypto has gone straight up, and 980 01:00:54.119 --> 01:00:56.480 gold and silver retraced a little bit, you know, going 981 01:00:56.559 --> 01:00:59.559 back to the record highs of just a couple of 982 01:00:59.559 --> 01:01:03.519 months ago, you know, just under twenty seven hundred dollars. 983 01:01:03.880 --> 01:01:05.360 I mean, there was only a couple of months ago 984 01:01:05.440 --> 01:01:07.239 that went down, and now I think it's up above 985 01:01:07.280 --> 01:01:12.199 twenty seven hundred again. But fundamentally nothing has changed, and 986 01:01:12.239 --> 01:01:16.679 the problems are not just in America. We have international problems. 987 01:01:17.440 --> 01:01:20.239 The German government has collapsed. So what happens next. They're 988 01:01:20.280 --> 01:01:22.159 going to have to have an election. They put together 989 01:01:22.199 --> 01:01:24.480 a three way coalition, and of course, in every other 990 01:01:24.519 --> 01:01:28.800 country but America, pretty much when they allow more than 991 01:01:28.800 --> 01:01:32.719 two parties, and then what happens is is very rare 992 01:01:32.880 --> 01:01:35.440 that a political party will get more than fifty percent 993 01:01:35.440 --> 01:01:38.239 of the vote, so they have to create a coalition 994 01:01:38.719 --> 01:01:43.679 with other groups afterwards, and so that's the way Germany 995 01:01:43.800 --> 01:01:47.840 is set up. The coalition has now collapsed after three years, 996 01:01:47.840 --> 01:01:50.920 following a lengthy dispute over how to stop a multi 997 01:01:51.000 --> 01:01:56.639 billion euro hole in next year's budget, plunging Europe's largest 998 01:01:56.639 --> 01:02:02.360 economy into a period of considerable unst certainty. And it 999 01:02:02.400 --> 01:02:05.760 has a very very big effect on the entire European economy. 1000 01:02:05.800 --> 01:02:11.639 Germany does, and Germany is really you know, Britain is 1001 01:02:11.679 --> 01:02:13.880 not in the EU anymore. But Britain is having to 1002 01:02:13.880 --> 01:02:16.880 shut down all their manufacturing because of the price of energy, 1003 01:02:16.920 --> 01:02:19.239 and they're shutting down their coal plants and all the 1004 01:02:19.280 --> 01:02:21.400 rest of this stuff. And energy there is four to 1005 01:02:21.480 --> 01:02:26.119 five times higher than is in the United States, which 1006 01:02:26.199 --> 01:02:29.440 is many multiples higher than it is that it costs 1007 01:02:29.480 --> 01:02:33.159 in China. And so Germany is going right down that 1008 01:02:33.199 --> 01:02:40.639 same path. All Schultz of the SPD sacked his finance minister, 1009 01:02:41.000 --> 01:02:45.840 Christian Linder, from the FDP he was the FDP leader, 1010 01:02:46.559 --> 01:02:49.400 on Wednesday night after months of disagreement over how to 1011 01:02:49.480 --> 01:02:52.920 deal with a gaping hole in Germany's budget. Schultz wants 1012 01:02:52.960 --> 01:02:56.960 to boost spending by taking on more debt, which is 1013 01:02:56.960 --> 01:03:00.519 what they always do, citing the impact of Russia's invasion 1014 01:03:00.519 --> 01:03:04.679 of Ukraine. Linder opposed this and insisted instead on an 1015 01:03:04.760 --> 01:03:08.519 array of tax and spending cuts that the SPD and 1016 01:03:08.719 --> 01:03:12.840 the Greens said were impossible. To accept, as it would 1017 01:03:12.840 --> 01:03:17.079 torpedo much of government's programs at stake. And here's what 1018 01:03:17.239 --> 01:03:23.199 they cannot do without welfare payments, climate emergency measures and 1019 01:03:23.239 --> 01:03:27.760 support for Ukraine. It's what we've always called the warfare 1020 01:03:27.840 --> 01:03:31.760 welfare state. No, no, we're not going to cut either 1021 01:03:31.800 --> 01:03:33.639 one of those. And now you've got the Greens in there, 1022 01:03:33.679 --> 01:03:39.599 so now it's warfare, welfare and climate. Those are non negotiable. 1023 01:03:40.000 --> 01:03:42.280 And all three of those things are going to bankrupt us, 1024 01:03:42.400 --> 01:03:46.119 especially in combination, all the Western countries, not just Germany, 1025 01:03:46.199 --> 01:03:49.679 all the Western countries are going to be bankrupted by warfare, 1026 01:03:49.719 --> 01:03:53.480 welfare and climate. And climate is an interesting combination of 1027 01:03:53.519 --> 01:03:56.920 warfare and welfare. It's warfare against the people and welfare 1028 01:03:56.920 --> 01:04:01.280 for the elites. It is a massive it's for of wealth. 1029 01:04:03.119 --> 01:04:06.960 It is both warfare and welfare. Federal elections were scheduled 1030 01:04:07.000 --> 01:04:09.039 for next autumn. They're likely to be shifted for by 1031 01:04:09.079 --> 01:04:11.960 about six months to March or to April. Schultz has 1032 01:04:12.039 --> 01:04:16.159 tabled a vote of confidence for the fifteenth of January, 1033 01:04:16.519 --> 01:04:19.159 so they wanted to move it even closer. They wanted 1034 01:04:19.199 --> 01:04:21.920 to have an election in just a couple of months, 1035 01:04:22.559 --> 01:04:24.760 but he's pushing it off a little bit, and then 1036 01:04:24.800 --> 01:04:29.400 in China, even China is especially China is feeling the 1037 01:04:29.480 --> 01:04:34.199 economic pressure as I mentioned, because of their potemp Can economy, 1038 01:04:34.239 --> 01:04:40.639 their can real estate build out, the bubble that they 1039 01:04:40.679 --> 01:04:43.800 created with that that a lot of billionaires, and about 1040 01:04:43.800 --> 01:04:47.360 a third of their billionaires are no longer billionaires. The 1041 01:04:47.480 --> 01:04:51.800 Chinese tax noose is tightening, and this is something that 1042 01:04:51.920 --> 01:04:53.679 is a harbinger of what's going to happen in America 1043 01:04:53.719 --> 01:04:56.159 as well, and I think that will likely happen under 1044 01:04:56.320 --> 01:04:59.920 Trump as the rush to try and save is econom 1045 01:05:00.119 --> 01:05:04.760 me via stimulus continues. You think you'll do that, You 1046 01:05:04.760 --> 01:05:11.679 think Trump will do stimulus and increase the deficit. Yeah, yeah, 1047 01:05:11.760 --> 01:05:15.000 China is simultaneously looking to shake down its citizens for 1048 01:05:15.159 --> 01:05:18.199 unpaid taxes. So first they give you a stimulus check, 1049 01:05:18.800 --> 01:05:24.000 then they raise the deficit and raise your taxes. This 1050 01:05:24.119 --> 01:05:29.199 push for compliance may further impact investor confidence in China's economy, 1051 01:05:29.199 --> 01:05:33.039 the world's second largest. Look both Trump and la Law, 1052 01:05:34.079 --> 01:05:39.000 neither one of them, and neither did Mike Johnson, the 1053 01:05:39.400 --> 01:05:43.400 Republican Speaker of the House. They all signed on just 1054 01:05:43.480 --> 01:05:46.079 like Biden and onto this idea that they're going to 1055 01:05:46.119 --> 01:05:49.719 give eighty billion dollars to the IRS, an agency that 1056 01:05:49.840 --> 01:05:53.519 had a budget of thirteen billion, So they had an 1057 01:05:53.639 --> 01:05:55.360 entire budget of thirteen and they're going to give them 1058 01:05:55.360 --> 01:05:58.480 an increase of eighty billion so they can add artificial 1059 01:05:58.480 --> 01:06:01.440 intelligence in eighty thousand IRS agents to harass our people 1060 01:06:01.480 --> 01:06:04.119 and to eat out their substance. As the Declaration of 1061 01:06:04.159 --> 01:06:09.039 Independence complained about the British tyranny, and why are they 1062 01:06:09.079 --> 01:06:12.480 going to do that? Because with one hand they give 1063 01:06:12.519 --> 01:06:14.960 you a stimulus, with one hand they give you a 1064 01:06:15.000 --> 01:06:19.480 tax break depending on what voter group you are, and 1065 01:06:19.519 --> 01:06:22.599 then with the other hand they take everything away from you. 1066 01:06:22.679 --> 01:06:25.559 As gerald Ford said, the government that is big enough 1067 01:06:25.559 --> 01:06:27.920 to give you everything you want is also big enough 1068 01:06:27.920 --> 01:06:31.400 to take everything you've got, and they usually do it 1069 01:06:31.519 --> 01:06:36.840 simultaneously or close to that. Recent tax demands have caused 1070 01:06:36.880 --> 01:06:39.800 concern and even fear among wealthy individuals and cities like 1071 01:06:39.840 --> 01:06:44.719 Beijing shanghaitions, and according to local tax advisor, he said, 1072 01:06:44.719 --> 01:06:46.920 some of them simply didn't know what to declare when 1073 01:06:46.920 --> 01:06:51.239 they were asked to conduct self inspections. Many didn't realize 1074 01:06:51.280 --> 01:06:54.679 before that their overseas personal gains be subjected to taxes 1075 01:06:54.719 --> 01:06:59.000 in China. Does that sound familiar, which had Supreme Court case. 1076 01:07:00.039 --> 01:07:02.559 I said, well, you have something and it's overseas and 1077 01:07:02.599 --> 01:07:04.960 you haven't sold it, but the paper or value has 1078 01:07:04.960 --> 01:07:08.119 gone up, so we can tax you on that, right, folks. 1079 01:07:09.000 --> 01:07:15.719 It is a global conspiracy. And the same mentality that 1080 01:07:15.760 --> 01:07:22.800 you see in Germany, warfare, welfare climate, the same predatory 1081 01:07:23.199 --> 01:07:27.960 tax stuff that you see in China, the same artificially 1082 01:07:28.119 --> 01:07:32.559 inflated economy. All of that stuff is going to be 1083 01:07:32.559 --> 01:07:37.800 coming here. It's the same everywhere. I talked about the 1084 01:07:37.840 --> 01:07:42.800 company at TSMC from Taiwan, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing company, and 1085 01:07:42.880 --> 01:07:47.280 this factory they're going to spend, well, it was like 1086 01:07:47.320 --> 01:07:50.000 twelve billion dollars of their money to set up this 1087 01:07:50.159 --> 01:07:53.159 factory town in Phoenix. I talked about it a little 1088 01:07:53.159 --> 01:07:55.079 bit in terms of the smart thing, but also in 1089 01:07:55.159 --> 01:07:57.119 terms of corporate culture. And of course they get a 1090 01:07:57.119 --> 01:08:01.119 matching set of another twelve billion from Washington out of 1091 01:08:01.159 --> 01:08:07.559 this Chips Act. As they're trying to establish onshore semiconductor 1092 01:08:07.639 --> 01:08:12.239 manufacturing that is now being done offshore, much of it 1093 01:08:12.360 --> 01:08:14.559 in Taiwan. And one of the things that I thought 1094 01:08:14.639 --> 01:08:16.880 was really striking about it, and I said, you know, look, 1095 01:08:16.960 --> 01:08:20.479 at the way they demand. The corporations demand more and 1096 01:08:20.560 --> 01:08:23.319 more and more and more of your life and of 1097 01:08:23.319 --> 01:08:27.439 your time. You don't have a life outside of the corporation. 1098 01:08:27.600 --> 01:08:31.720 And that was what these Taiwanese engineers were trained. You know, 1099 01:08:31.800 --> 01:08:34.520 the Americans were complaining about it. They said, you know, 1100 01:08:34.560 --> 01:08:37.640 these guys are just hanging around to look good. They 1101 01:08:37.880 --> 01:08:41.119 don't have a life outside of the thing. And I 1102 01:08:41.279 --> 01:08:45.000 don't mind working, but for what Why would I just 1103 01:08:45.159 --> 01:08:49.479 hang around here all the time just to impress my bosses? 1104 01:08:50.079 --> 01:08:52.880 And that's what they demand in that culture. They said, 1105 01:08:52.880 --> 01:08:57.119 if a machine breaks down at midnight, it'll be fixed 1106 01:08:57.119 --> 01:09:01.279 by one o'clock and the entire in Taiwan and the 1107 01:09:01.359 --> 01:09:03.760 Taiwanese engineer's wife will not have a problem with that. 1108 01:09:04.119 --> 01:09:05.960 So the problem with the Americans is you won't fix 1109 01:09:06.000 --> 01:09:07.800 it until the morning when the guy comes to work. 1110 01:09:08.439 --> 01:09:09.960 We'll call the guy up in the middle of the night, 1111 01:09:10.039 --> 01:09:11.960 get him out of bed, make him come down here, 1112 01:09:12.000 --> 01:09:14.159 and then he can put in a full, full day's 1113 01:09:14.199 --> 01:09:18.840 work as well. And look, I've been in that culture 1114 01:09:19.000 --> 01:09:21.960 as well. I talked about that, working late at night 1115 01:09:22.039 --> 01:09:25.479 at Texas Instruments, and I was the last one out 1116 01:09:25.479 --> 01:09:29.720 of there, and I pull up and there's this traffic light, 1117 01:09:30.640 --> 01:09:33.960 you know, and it's turning, it's turning red, still in yellow, 1118 01:09:33.960 --> 01:09:35.319 and I start to speed up to go through it. 1119 01:09:35.359 --> 01:09:37.920 And then I look and over to the right is 1120 01:09:37.960 --> 01:09:40.920 a cop setting at the traffic light, and I know 1121 01:09:40.960 --> 01:09:42.199 that he's going to pull me over if I go 1122 01:09:42.239 --> 01:09:45.680 through that yellow light. So I put on brakes and 1123 01:09:45.720 --> 01:09:48.359 I stopped and didn't skid or anything like that. And 1124 01:09:48.399 --> 01:09:51.479 I looked over at him and I grinned, thought you 1125 01:09:51.560 --> 01:09:54.800 had me. The next morning I came in. So that's 1126 01:09:54.840 --> 01:09:56.359 late at night. There was like two or three o'clock 1127 01:09:56.399 --> 01:09:59.000 at night. I'm working on the project. I come in 1128 01:09:59.000 --> 01:10:02.920 the next morning at eight and he's waiting for me, 1129 01:10:04.279 --> 01:10:06.920 and he pulls me over for changing lanes without using 1130 01:10:06.960 --> 01:10:12.159 a turn signal. Ah, you know that's yeah. Gradually I 1131 01:10:12.239 --> 01:10:17.680 learned about the whole system. I was fit to be tied. 1132 01:10:18.039 --> 01:10:22.560 So with that in mind, the twenty countries with the 1133 01:10:22.600 --> 01:10:26.560 lowest fertility rates, and guess what's up there at number one? 1134 01:10:27.760 --> 01:10:34.319 Taiwan the country you know again TSMC, the biggest company 1135 01:10:34.439 --> 01:10:37.479 in Taiwan, big semiconductor company. It's thirty percent of their 1136 01:10:37.520 --> 01:10:40.720 stock market. They said it is the mountain that protects 1137 01:10:40.760 --> 01:10:46.359 our country from Chinese invasion, because if the Chinese invade 1138 01:10:46.359 --> 01:10:49.319 and destroyed wolves set that down, and all the semiconductors 1139 01:10:49.319 --> 01:10:51.960 everywhere will be shut down. And so they work their 1140 01:10:51.960 --> 01:10:54.039 people like slaves and they don't have a life outside 1141 01:10:54.039 --> 01:10:57.800 of that company environment. They have the lowest popular You 1142 01:10:57.800 --> 01:11:04.960 need two point one of children per couple. I guess 1143 01:11:05.520 --> 01:11:08.399 I don't think that. Oh per woman, number of children 1144 01:11:08.479 --> 01:11:13.960 per woman two point one. Okay, Taiwan the lowest, tied 1145 01:11:14.119 --> 01:11:18.760 with South Korea at one point one. One point one. 1146 01:11:20.039 --> 01:11:23.000 They need two point one. They're dying. It's not just 1147 01:11:23.079 --> 01:11:28.199 killing their lives, it's killing their entire country. Chasing money, 1148 01:11:28.319 --> 01:11:31.279 you know, more productivity, more, more and more, got to 1149 01:11:31.319 --> 01:11:36.920 have more chips. Yesterday I talked about it. I said, 1150 01:11:37.239 --> 01:11:39.439 here's an alternative. You know what people are starting to 1151 01:11:39.439 --> 01:11:41.159 figure out in America is you don't have to go 1152 01:11:41.199 --> 01:11:44.600 to college. You don't have to have this corporate career. Instead, 1153 01:11:44.680 --> 01:11:48.239 learn a skill. Learn a skill. Because of society collapses, 1154 01:11:48.279 --> 01:11:51.000 you got that skill. But even if society doesn't collapse, 1155 01:11:51.840 --> 01:11:54.680 you got some measure of independence because you've got a 1156 01:11:54.720 --> 01:11:58.000 skill and you can become an entrepreneur. You can start 1157 01:11:58.039 --> 01:12:01.039 a company because you got a skill, but it gives 1158 01:12:01.079 --> 01:12:04.119 you independence and freedom, and your life is not subsumed 1159 01:12:04.159 --> 01:12:06.199 by your work. Yes, we all work, but it doesn't 1160 01:12:06.239 --> 01:12:09.760 have to be subsumed by that. Shortly right after that 1161 01:12:09.840 --> 01:12:16.199 one point one for Taiwan, then you've got You've got Singapore, Ukraine, 1162 01:12:16.319 --> 01:12:20.399 Hong Kong, Macau. At one point two. Again, you need 1163 01:12:20.399 --> 01:12:23.079 two point one to maintain your population. They're all dying. 1164 01:12:23.680 --> 01:12:26.920 Ukraine is dying. Even if you don't send off all 1165 01:12:26.960 --> 01:12:30.479 of your Even if you don't shanghai or press gang 1166 01:12:30.520 --> 01:12:32.840 your young men and send them off to be Kennon 1167 01:12:32.920 --> 01:12:37.840 fodder for NATO and Lindsey Graham, you're still dying because 1168 01:12:37.840 --> 01:12:42.199 you're not having families. That was one of the things 1169 01:12:42.199 --> 01:12:46.520 that people in exile the Israel. It's in exile in 1170 01:12:46.880 --> 01:12:50.720 Bablon and Jeremiah, you know that passage that everybody knows. 1171 01:12:50.760 --> 01:12:52.800 I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper, 1172 01:12:52.880 --> 01:12:55.359 not to harm. First thing he says to them, he says, 1173 01:12:56.119 --> 01:12:58.920 have you know, give your sons and daughters in marriage 1174 01:12:58.920 --> 01:13:03.359 and have children. You build your homes, build your farms, 1175 01:13:03.399 --> 01:13:07.000 and work for the peace of your country. That you're 1176 01:13:07.039 --> 01:13:09.840 in because that will be your piece. The first thing 1177 01:13:09.840 --> 01:13:13.159 he tells them is you don't have a life. Focus 1178 01:13:13.479 --> 01:13:17.039 on your family. That's the key thing. And so they 1179 01:13:17.039 --> 01:13:18.800 go through this and a lot of a lot of 1180 01:13:19.119 --> 01:13:22.119 countries are way way both one point three. That group 1181 01:13:22.199 --> 01:13:28.399 is Puerto Rico, Italy, Spain, Poland, Montserrat. And then at 1182 01:13:28.439 --> 01:13:34.479 one point four you got Bosnia, British Virgin Islands, Japan, Japan, Greece, 1183 01:13:34.720 --> 01:13:39.239 Costa Rica, Bahamas, Belarus and so forth. The global average 1184 01:13:39.399 --> 01:13:43.840 is two point three. But it's not happening in those countries. 1185 01:13:43.880 --> 01:13:50.760 All those countries I just mentioned, Italy, Spain, Poland, Greece, Japan, Taiwan, 1186 01:13:50.880 --> 01:13:54.640 South Korea, they're all dying, Ukraine, Hong Kong, they're all dying. 1187 01:13:55.880 --> 01:14:03.800 They're not They've sacrificed their life corporation. UH. And I 1188 01:14:03.960 --> 01:14:06.760 hope that makes them happy, because it won't make them 1189 01:14:06.760 --> 01:14:10.000 happy for them long. And thank you very much for 1190 01:14:10.039 --> 01:14:12.680 the tip. Congrats on the nude baby. What is your 1191 01:14:12.760 --> 01:14:21.000 grandpa name going to be? Uh? Prayers to the mama 1192 01:14:21.039 --> 01:14:23.880 and daddy, so happy everyone is doing well. We went 1193 01:14:24.000 --> 01:14:27.039 into one of the tourist shops and they had this 1194 01:14:27.319 --> 01:14:30.039 and it was a local artist that had these clay 1195 01:14:30.119 --> 01:14:32.079 cups that they did, and they had every name that 1196 01:14:32.159 --> 01:14:35.520 you can imagine for grandparents that were there. We had 1197 01:14:35.520 --> 01:14:37.319 a lot of fun looking at that, and I said, 1198 01:14:38.079 --> 01:14:43.199 I like Pappy, so it makes me laugh. And you know, 1199 01:14:43.239 --> 01:14:45.199 if he calls me Pappy, I think that'll be funny. 1200 01:14:45.600 --> 01:14:47.680 Uh So, yeah, I'm gonna go with Pappy. I think 1201 01:14:48.000 --> 01:14:51.479 I got a cup to show it to you, and 1202 01:14:51.520 --> 01:14:53.479 I know everybody will be making fun of it on 1203 01:14:53.680 --> 01:14:59.319 here as well. Uh dialectical Hegelian. Uh, let's see dialectic 1204 01:14:59.479 --> 01:15:02.560 is HEGELI? There we go. In Europe when the Democrats lose, 1205 01:15:02.600 --> 01:15:05.239 they truly shut the government down, something I wish the 1206 01:15:05.279 --> 01:15:08.479 American Democrats would do instead of threatening to do. Yes, 1207 01:15:08.960 --> 01:15:11.359 I agree, Yeah, you always say you're going to shut 1208 01:15:11.399 --> 01:15:13.680 the government down, but you never do. And the Republicans 1209 01:15:13.680 --> 01:15:15.439 threatened to shut it down as well, but they never 1210 01:15:15.520 --> 01:15:16.720 do either. We'll be right back. 1211 01:16:52.760 --> 01:16:55.319 You're listening to the David Night Show. 1212 01:16:56.760 --> 01:17:02.239 Welcome back. Karen ran to get the the mug Pappy 1213 01:17:02.239 --> 01:17:04.920 on it. I don't know how often I'll use that 1214 01:17:04.960 --> 01:17:07.520 because it's pretty small, but yeah, she said she was 1215 01:17:07.520 --> 01:17:10.199 going to get lolly if I had chosen Pop, but 1216 01:17:11.840 --> 01:17:14.520 sother way with Pappy. She didn't get that yet. Let's 1217 01:17:14.520 --> 01:17:16.239 talk a little bit about Elon Musk, and we're going 1218 01:17:16.319 --> 01:17:18.159 to talk about this when Eric Peters comes on. Musk 1219 01:17:18.239 --> 01:17:19.640 is about to find out what one hundred and thirty 1220 01:17:19.640 --> 01:17:23.119 million dollars for Trump gets him, because you know, one 1221 01:17:23.119 --> 01:17:27.079 of the first times I talked to Eric Peters was 1222 01:17:27.159 --> 01:17:30.479 when we talked about Musk as the king of crony capitalism. 1223 01:17:30.520 --> 01:17:33.520 How he became the richest man in the world. And 1224 01:17:33.680 --> 01:17:36.439 it's probably no person on earth that's more politically astute 1225 01:17:36.479 --> 01:17:40.640 than Elon Musk to profit like he has. And now 1226 01:17:41.039 --> 01:17:46.319 he is proudly taking over the Oval Office, kitchen, sink 1227 01:17:46.359 --> 01:17:48.600 and all. As he put the meme out. Musk, who's 1228 01:17:48.600 --> 01:17:53.119 growing political apparatus, has already proved its metal will gain 1229 01:17:53.359 --> 01:17:56.800 more than just an ally in the White House. Trump 1230 01:17:56.920 --> 01:18:00.439 has vowed to give him an official title cutting government spending. 1231 01:18:00.479 --> 01:18:04.560 How is that for irony? No, actually, it's hypocrisy. Right, 1232 01:18:05.520 --> 01:18:07.159 We're going to take the guy the king of crony 1233 01:18:07.159 --> 01:18:10.560 capitalism and Trump is going to make him the guy 1234 01:18:10.640 --> 01:18:15.000 in charge of cutting government spending. And the idiots and 1235 01:18:15.119 --> 01:18:19.000 MAGA are going gaga over all of this stuff. Oh, 1236 01:18:19.239 --> 01:18:23.000 this is great, the great the guy who has become 1237 01:18:23.000 --> 01:18:26.399 the world's richest man by grifting the government with crony capitalism. 1238 01:18:27.039 --> 01:18:28.479 And he's going to be the person in charge of 1239 01:18:28.520 --> 01:18:31.479 cutting spending. Yeah, I got a bridge. I can sell 1240 01:18:31.520 --> 01:18:35.000 you too. He does as well, with it the power 1241 01:18:35.079 --> 01:18:38.800 to influence policy and federal agencies and to oversee the 1242 01:18:38.920 --> 01:18:42.760 vast empire of companies. Trump said of Musk, he's a 1243 01:18:42.840 --> 01:18:48.720 special guy. He's a super genius. If I were a 1244 01:18:48.800 --> 01:18:52.279 rich man, I would sit all day in the gate 1245 01:18:52.319 --> 01:18:53.840 and I would talk and people would think I really 1246 01:18:53.920 --> 01:18:57.079 knew because I was such a wealthy man. Right, I'm 1247 01:18:57.119 --> 01:19:00.520 filling on the roof. So Teva says, yeah, and so 1248 01:19:00.680 --> 01:19:05.199 you know, hey, if you're rich, you're smart. Right. Not necessarily, 1249 01:19:07.000 --> 01:19:09.800 he does have lots of money. He says, we have 1250 01:19:09.840 --> 01:19:12.239 to protect our geniuses. We don't have that many of them. 1251 01:19:12.399 --> 01:19:14.159 And we also don't have that many people have a 1252 01:19:14.199 --> 01:19:16.680 net worth of two hundred and fifty six billion dollars 1253 01:19:17.399 --> 01:19:21.880 who are giving me money. CASSLA stocks are surging. The 1254 01:19:21.960 --> 01:19:24.840 stocks swored as much as fifteen percent in the US 1255 01:19:24.840 --> 01:19:27.920 trading is. Investors looked to cash in on Trump's return 1256 01:19:27.960 --> 01:19:30.920 to the White House. Musk also posted a chart early 1257 01:19:30.960 --> 01:19:34.680 Wednesday morning that he said showed record usage of X 1258 01:19:35.039 --> 01:19:37.600 his social media and he said, let that sink in 1259 01:19:39.079 --> 01:19:41.520 as he was posting that and then carrying a sink 1260 01:19:41.640 --> 01:19:45.319 into the Oval office, a parody of what he did 1261 01:19:45.359 --> 01:19:48.800 when he took over Twitter, and now he's taking over 1262 01:19:50.000 --> 01:19:52.720 the White House. Musk spent more than one hundred and 1263 01:19:52.720 --> 01:19:56.239 thirty million dollars on Trump and on down ballot Republicans 1264 01:19:56.239 --> 01:19:59.920 and competitive house races, and again to normalize this, since 1265 01:20:00.079 --> 01:20:03.880 he has a net worth that is more than a 1266 01:20:03.960 --> 01:20:08.680 million times what the average Americans net worth is, it's like, 1267 01:20:09.239 --> 01:20:12.399 you know, one point three million times, but since he 1268 01:20:12.479 --> 01:20:14.840 has a net worth a million times more than the 1269 01:20:14.840 --> 01:20:17.720 average American, that'd be like you or me spending one 1270 01:20:17.760 --> 01:20:21.600 hundred and thirty dollars right to get all of this. 1271 01:20:23.279 --> 01:20:25.760 Musk voted in Texas and then he flew in his 1272 01:20:25.800 --> 01:20:28.000 private chat to Florida to watch returns with Trump and 1273 01:20:28.039 --> 01:20:32.279 his family at mar Lago. His pack posted a photo 1274 01:20:32.279 --> 01:20:35.520 of him sitting shoulder to shoulder with Trump and Dana White, 1275 01:20:35.840 --> 01:20:41.520 the chief executive officer of the Ultimate Fighting Championship. Well, okay, 1276 01:20:41.600 --> 01:20:44.159 the Ultimate Fighting Championship is not professional wrestling, but you 1277 01:20:44.199 --> 01:20:48.760 know McMahon is having some issues with sexual stuff, so 1278 01:20:48.800 --> 01:20:51.640 as close as they can get to a professional wrestling, 1279 01:20:51.680 --> 01:20:57.119 I guess how appropriate. And then this is a Pennsylvania 1280 01:20:57.159 --> 01:21:00.560 state director of the Early Vote Action says Musk is 1281 01:21:00.600 --> 01:21:04.239 new to politics, but it means a lot for a 1282 01:21:04.279 --> 01:21:06.439 billionaire in a tech mogul to go all in for 1283 01:21:06.479 --> 01:21:09.920 President Trump. Is Musk new to politics? No, politics is 1284 01:21:09.960 --> 01:21:13.039 how he made his money. But this is what is 1285 01:21:13.520 --> 01:21:17.319 being sold to people. You know, Babylon be's okay. He 1286 01:21:17.520 --> 01:21:22.880 sacrificed forty billion dollars to save our free speech. He 1287 01:21:22.920 --> 01:21:26.039 oversees an empire of six companies, several of which are 1288 01:21:26.119 --> 01:21:30.439 highly entangled in the US federal government. SpaceX Tesla is 1289 01:21:30.439 --> 01:21:34.439 also looking to roll out autonomous robotaxis, but there are 1290 01:21:34.760 --> 01:21:41.359 tremendous regulatory hurdles for both Tesla's robotaxis and for space X. 1291 01:21:42.000 --> 01:21:44.800 Nobody ever mentions even though this guy made his fortune 1292 01:21:44.880 --> 01:21:48.439 off of the CO two fantasy and global warming, and 1293 01:21:48.520 --> 01:21:54.319 nobody ever mentions the emissions from his rockets. There's rockets 1294 01:21:54.359 --> 01:21:57.600 that the most powerful rockets that we've ever had didn't 1295 01:21:57.600 --> 01:22:00.439 have powerful rockets like this when we went to the moon. 1296 01:22:01.279 --> 01:22:04.920 Isn't that amazing? Because when he lit this one up. 1297 01:22:04.960 --> 01:22:07.880 I remember a year or two ago he lit it 1298 01:22:07.960 --> 01:22:12.159 up and it created this crater and blew rocks and 1299 01:22:12.520 --> 01:22:16.520 concrete and everything miles away, blew it into some kind 1300 01:22:16.560 --> 01:22:19.199 of a precious reserve. It's precious to them or whatever. 1301 01:22:19.239 --> 01:22:23.920 But still the debris that it hurled everywhere. He said, well, 1302 01:22:23.960 --> 01:22:26.920 we've never had anything this powerful before. How did we 1303 01:22:26.960 --> 01:22:31.159 get to the moon? I just can't figure it out. 1304 01:22:31.920 --> 01:22:35.800 Musk pitched a job for himself to cut government bureaucracy 1305 01:22:35.800 --> 01:22:39.399 and waste. The ultimate hypocrite. He's going to be our 1306 01:22:39.479 --> 01:22:43.520 cost cutter, said Trump. Musk has joked that he'll lead 1307 01:22:43.560 --> 01:22:46.760 the Department of Government Efficiency, what he calls Doge like 1308 01:22:46.800 --> 01:22:50.600 his doge coin. Musk has claimed that he could cut 1309 01:22:50.640 --> 01:22:54.600 an unprecedented two trillion from the federal budget just by 1310 01:22:54.600 --> 01:22:57.079 getting rid of his companies. No, I mean, he didn't 1311 01:22:57.079 --> 01:23:01.840 say that. He hasn't said which agencies he will go after. Well, 1312 01:23:01.880 --> 01:23:04.560 I don't know what's the annual budget of the federal government. 1313 01:23:05.560 --> 01:23:08.479 I could cut almost all of them, so could the 1314 01:23:08.479 --> 01:23:12.039 people at Reason. Like I mentioned earlier, he described a 1315 01:23:12.119 --> 01:23:14.199 SpaceX rocket that set on a launch pad for two 1316 01:23:14.239 --> 01:23:16.279 months waiting for approval. He said, we could build a 1317 01:23:16.319 --> 01:23:20.399 rocket faster than they could approve the paperwork. He says, 1318 01:23:21.359 --> 01:23:25.199 I'm like Gulliver being tied down by a million little strings. 1319 01:23:26.399 --> 01:23:29.840 He doesn't say I but he said this, This is 1320 01:23:29.920 --> 01:23:34.359 like Gulliver, but he's talking about himself. I'm Gulliver, the 1321 01:23:34.479 --> 01:23:37.840 giant in a land of little Aputians, being tied down 1322 01:23:37.920 --> 01:23:40.359 by a million little strings. And he says, it's not 1323 01:23:40.479 --> 01:23:43.159 like any one string is the problem, but you got 1324 01:23:43.199 --> 01:23:46.199 a million of them. He's sorry. He said that he'll 1325 01:23:46.239 --> 01:23:48.079 try to use whatever power he gets to push for 1326 01:23:48.119 --> 01:23:52.119 a federal approval process of fully autonomous vehicles for himself. 1327 01:23:53.319 --> 01:23:56.079 Current rules prevent manufacturers from putting more than a couple 1328 01:23:56.159 --> 01:23:58.560 thousand cars on the road per year without steering wheels 1329 01:23:58.600 --> 01:24:01.039 or other controls. So you've got a flood our highways 1330 01:24:02.159 --> 01:24:06.479 with cars under his control. They don't have steering wheels 1331 01:24:07.119 --> 01:24:11.560 or brakes. What could possibly go wrong? During his first term, 1332 01:24:11.600 --> 01:24:16.359 Trump appointed Steve Manuchin, former Goldman Sachs Group executive. But 1333 01:24:16.399 --> 01:24:18.000 of course they don't mention the fact that he also 1334 01:24:18.079 --> 01:24:21.960 put in from Goldman Cone, who They wanted Goldman, wanted 1335 01:24:22.000 --> 01:24:24.279 him in there so badly that they gave him his 1336 01:24:24.319 --> 01:24:26.560 golden parachute of two hundred and fifty million dollars, and 1337 01:24:26.600 --> 01:24:28.319 they changed their corporate rules so he could get it 1338 01:24:28.319 --> 01:24:31.520 all in a lump sum to go be the chief 1339 01:24:31.560 --> 01:24:38.039 of staff. I think for Trump, Musk's potential role of 1340 01:24:38.039 --> 01:24:41.439 cutting government spending isn't expected to be a cabinet level position, 1341 01:24:41.600 --> 01:24:43.840 meaning that he wouldn't be required to step away from 1342 01:24:43.880 --> 01:24:47.560 his CEO duties. See unlike Alex Czar that Trump brought 1343 01:24:47.560 --> 01:24:51.319 in to run HHS, Alex'zar was the CEO of Eli Lilly. 1344 01:24:51.399 --> 01:24:54.279 He had to leave that corporate position at Big Pharma 1345 01:24:54.920 --> 01:25:00.279 to take over the regulatory agency to shut everything down, 1346 01:25:00.600 --> 01:25:04.359 but also play footsie with the pharmaceutical companies. But see 1347 01:25:04.399 --> 01:25:07.000 Elon Musk has got it even better. Elon Musk can 1348 01:25:07.079 --> 01:25:09.560 stay and it's not even a revolving door. He doesn't 1349 01:25:09.600 --> 01:25:12.319 have to change buildings. He can just stay where he is, 1350 01:25:12.399 --> 01:25:16.520 continue to make money, and then also exercise his own 1351 01:25:16.560 --> 01:25:23.239 strings and levers of control. After the billionaire's endorsement in July, 1352 01:25:23.560 --> 01:25:26.520 Trump changed his tune on electric vehicles. He went from 1353 01:25:26.680 --> 01:25:31.039 entirely railing against what he called quote Crooked Joe's insane 1354 01:25:31.199 --> 01:25:37.279 electric vehicle mandate unquote, to praising evs at times. This 1355 01:25:37.319 --> 01:25:41.359 is the genius of Elon Musk. He can see that 1356 01:25:42.079 --> 01:25:46.199 Trump is doing well, and he can see that Trump 1357 01:25:46.279 --> 01:25:49.359 is doing well by opposing EV's where he makes a 1358 01:25:49.359 --> 01:25:53.279 lot of money. So I will get behind him and 1359 01:25:53.600 --> 01:25:58.760 I'll change him. Now. Trump says, I'm for electric cars. 1360 01:25:59.039 --> 01:26:01.880 I have to be, you know, because Elon endorsed me 1361 01:26:02.039 --> 01:26:05.119 very strongly. Elon, so I have no choice, he said 1362 01:26:05.159 --> 01:26:12.000 during an August rally. Trump has no principles. He's for 1363 01:26:12.079 --> 01:26:16.960 sale to the highest bidder on each and every issue. Folks. 1364 01:26:17.840 --> 01:26:21.000 It doesn't matter whether it's the pharmaceutical company's buying him 1365 01:26:21.000 --> 01:26:23.560 in the transition period in twenty seventeen, or if it's 1366 01:26:23.600 --> 01:26:30.000 this on every issue. The man has no principles. He's 1367 01:26:30.159 --> 01:26:32.520 all it's just the love of money. It's just like 1368 01:26:32.560 --> 01:26:35.000 his program. He said. I'd never seen his program, and 1369 01:26:35.039 --> 01:26:36.920 I was I was scurious. One I thought, well, what 1370 01:26:36.960 --> 01:26:40.239 was his theme song? Opened up and it was like money, money, money, money, 1371 01:26:40.520 --> 01:26:43.119 you know, you probably all know it. I had never 1372 01:26:43.159 --> 01:26:46.319 seen it, and it's just flaunting the wealth as he does. 1373 01:26:46.399 --> 01:26:46.560 You know. 1374 01:26:48.279 --> 01:26:51.520 Yeah. When they did the movie, which again I had 1375 01:26:51.520 --> 01:26:55.640 not watched the Apprentice movie, talking about his apprenticeship under 1376 01:26:55.720 --> 01:27:00.800 Roy Cohen. They were talking about out how they're going 1377 01:27:00.840 --> 01:27:03.520 to set up the sets to film the movie, and 1378 01:27:03.560 --> 01:27:12.760 one person said, make it look expensive and tasteless. That's it, expensive, garish, tasteless. 1379 01:27:14.119 --> 01:27:20.119 Like Trump, Musk is pushing conspiracy theories and talking about 1380 01:27:20.279 --> 01:27:22.840 immigrants and how that's got to be controlled, and he's 1381 01:27:22.880 --> 01:27:26.840 talking about it on X This is from Yahoo. They 1382 01:27:26.840 --> 01:27:31.680 don't like that. But what I'm concerned about is that 1383 01:27:31.920 --> 01:27:33.720 Trump has said, and I've played the clip for you, 1384 01:27:33.760 --> 01:27:37.399 I don't have it in the thing today, but we're 1385 01:27:37.439 --> 01:27:40.199 going to stop it, whether it's land see or air, right, 1386 01:27:40.279 --> 01:27:42.399 we're going to stop these people coming in lands her air. 1387 01:27:42.399 --> 01:27:44.159 We're gonna do it with biometrics and all the rest. 1388 01:27:44.319 --> 01:27:47.279 You gotta be very careful. They've got the MAGA people 1389 01:27:47.399 --> 01:27:51.239 so worked up. And of course they would be concerned 1390 01:27:52.119 --> 01:27:54.079 if it was Biden who was going to enact a 1391 01:27:54.119 --> 01:27:59.199 biometric control system on us at the borders and internally, right, 1392 01:28:00.039 --> 01:28:02.960 But when Republicans do it, it's okay. Right, when DeSantis 1393 01:28:02.960 --> 01:28:06.119 did it in Florida. Instead, we're going to now have mandatory. 1394 01:28:06.199 --> 01:28:09.479 Everifi you're going to have to mandatory get permission from 1395 01:28:09.520 --> 01:28:12.720 the federal government to get a job. And DeSantis and 1396 01:28:12.720 --> 01:28:15.760 the Republicans there past that, everybody just laid down that 1397 01:28:15.760 --> 01:28:17.560 they wouldn't have done that. If it had been Democrats, 1398 01:28:17.560 --> 01:28:20.039 it would have been suspicious. But when you have Republicans 1399 01:28:20.079 --> 01:28:22.720 doing that to people, they just step aside and let 1400 01:28:22.720 --> 01:28:28.319 it happen. And like Trump, Musk was also all about 1401 01:28:28.359 --> 01:28:31.359 the mRNA vaccine CureVac. He made a lot of money 1402 01:28:31.399 --> 01:28:37.479 off of that on EV's Tesla has received billions from 1403 01:28:37.479 --> 01:28:41.840 Biden's policies, which Trump has vowed to dismantle. Another reason 1404 01:28:41.840 --> 01:28:44.479 for him to back Trump, who is obviously going to win. 1405 01:28:45.880 --> 01:28:49.039 I say, obviously, but you could see Biden sinking. I 1406 01:28:49.079 --> 01:28:52.760 think these people know far more than we do. In 1407 01:28:52.800 --> 01:28:55.920 the background, not too long ago, Musk was calling for 1408 01:28:55.960 --> 01:28:58.640 Trump to quote, hang up his hat and sail into 1409 01:28:58.720 --> 01:29:04.560 the sunset. Then they started realizing, wait a minute, looks 1410 01:29:04.560 --> 01:29:07.680 like this guy is going to win. And again he 1411 01:29:07.720 --> 01:29:11.279 can read that better than pretty much anybody America. Pack 1412 01:29:11.359 --> 01:29:13.279 he said, is going to keep going after this election. 1413 01:29:14.319 --> 01:29:16.680 That was the thing that he set up to comply 1414 01:29:16.760 --> 01:29:21.720 with the election laws. You say, Danish de Suzza gave 1415 01:29:21.720 --> 01:29:23.680 when the limit was twenty five hundred dollars, He gave 1416 01:29:23.680 --> 01:29:28.079 twenty five thousand to a former friend they were in 1417 01:29:28.119 --> 01:29:31.000 college together, who was running for office, and Obama put 1418 01:29:31.079 --> 01:29:33.560 DeNisi to Susan in jail. I mean, usually it's just 1419 01:29:33.600 --> 01:29:38.279 a fine. But because of politics and the way the 1420 01:29:38.319 --> 01:29:42.399 Democrats are now using law fair against people. You know, 1421 01:29:42.479 --> 01:29:44.119 that was one of the early examples of it, when 1422 01:29:44.159 --> 01:29:47.520 they put Danish to Suza in jail. Well, Elon Musk 1423 01:29:47.840 --> 01:29:49.399 can set this up and he can give one hundred 1424 01:29:49.399 --> 01:29:51.359 and thirty million dollars, and he can be the sole 1425 01:29:51.720 --> 01:29:56.319 donor of a political action committee. See, the elites are 1426 01:29:56.319 --> 01:29:58.239 the ones who are writing the rules. The elites are 1427 01:29:58.279 --> 01:30:00.439 the ones who are hiring the army of years to 1428 01:30:00.479 --> 01:30:02.760 go through and make sure that everything is in compliance. 1429 01:30:03.359 --> 01:30:05.600 America Pack is going to keep going after this election, 1430 01:30:05.680 --> 01:30:13.199 said Musk. And now he's got contact information on a 1431 01:30:13.279 --> 01:30:17.600 lot of voters that he gave forty seven dollars to. 1432 01:30:18.560 --> 01:30:21.720 They signed up and said I agree with the first 1433 01:30:21.720 --> 01:30:24.760 and second Amendment, and here's my name in contact information. 1434 01:30:24.800 --> 01:30:27.960 He gives them forty seven dollars and now they're on 1435 01:30:28.000 --> 01:30:31.479 his list, just like he can scan through and find 1436 01:30:31.520 --> 01:30:35.560 the people on Twitter who like him and silence to 1437 01:30:35.600 --> 01:30:39.840 people who don't like him, like me, and like Eric 1438 01:30:40.039 --> 01:30:45.079 coming on. So instead what you see is this kind 1439 01:30:45.079 --> 01:30:49.800 of a naive take from the Daily Skeptic headline what 1440 01:30:49.840 --> 01:30:52.920 Elon did to Twitter he can now do to the 1441 01:30:53.000 --> 01:30:56.680 deep State. We see this from the Daily Skeptic, We 1442 01:30:56.720 --> 01:30:58.640 see it from Bablon b. I mean, these people have 1443 01:30:58.720 --> 01:31:05.039 been totally can in by Musk worship, but not Brian 1444 01:31:05.079 --> 01:31:08.479 shall Hobby at Health Impact News. He said, Elon Musk 1445 01:31:08.479 --> 01:31:11.279 wants Americans to vote. He said, I told Joe Rogan 1446 01:31:11.960 --> 01:31:15.199 vote like your life depends on it, he said, But 1447 01:31:15.239 --> 01:31:18.960 it's actually his life that depends on it, says prosperity 1448 01:31:19.000 --> 01:31:23.880 his money, which is his life. And again all these people, 1449 01:31:23.960 --> 01:31:26.479 even the people who are hailing him as a hero, 1450 01:31:27.479 --> 01:31:30.119 have got these pictures of him dressed up in his 1451 01:31:30.159 --> 01:31:34.920 Bofamet outfit with his satanic upside down cross. I mean, 1452 01:31:35.000 --> 01:31:39.000 nothing to see there, right, just move on? Well, Brian 1453 01:31:39.000 --> 01:31:41.640 shall Hobby says, you know, one of the things that 1454 01:31:41.720 --> 01:31:44.920 was interesting that came out of this, and I didn't 1455 01:31:44.920 --> 01:31:47.960 see anybody else pick this up he said, I've read 1456 01:31:47.960 --> 01:31:49.640 in the past that Elon must loves to play the 1457 01:31:49.680 --> 01:31:53.880 online game called Diablo Spanish War. Of course it means double, 1458 01:31:54.640 --> 01:31:57.119 and he says he sometimes plays it for many hours. However, 1459 01:31:57.239 --> 01:32:00.039 Musk revealed that not only does he play this on 1460 01:32:00.039 --> 01:32:03.880 online game, but he told Joe Rogan that he is 1461 01:32:04.000 --> 01:32:07.359 in the top twenty worldwide for the highest scores in 1462 01:32:07.399 --> 01:32:11.680 this game, and there's only one other American in the 1463 01:32:11.720 --> 01:32:13.600 top twenty. Of course, what Elon Musk was saying in 1464 01:32:13.640 --> 01:32:14.920 the clip, I'm not going to play it. But what 1465 01:32:14.960 --> 01:32:18.119 Elon Musk was saying was that everybody else in the 1466 01:32:18.199 --> 01:32:22.079 top twenty is Asian. So he's talking about, you know, 1467 01:32:22.119 --> 01:32:25.119 the future is in Asia or whatever. So eighteen of 1468 01:32:25.199 --> 01:32:27.680 the top twenty a Asian, and then you have Elon 1469 01:32:27.800 --> 01:32:31.880 Musk and an American who are in the top twenty. 1470 01:32:32.439 --> 01:32:33.880 He says, I'm in the top twenty in the world 1471 01:32:33.920 --> 01:32:37.199 in Diablo for I'm listed with my actual name on 1472 01:32:37.239 --> 01:32:39.119 the list. You know. Joe Rogan said, so, what's your 1473 01:32:39.119 --> 01:32:40.920 handle there? You don't want to tell people? He goes, No, 1474 01:32:40.960 --> 01:32:44.359 it's my actual name that's there. He says, there's only 1475 01:32:44.399 --> 01:32:46.039 two Americans in the top twenty on one of them. 1476 01:32:46.079 --> 01:32:50.039 If I play a video game on extreme difficulty, I 1477 01:32:50.199 --> 01:32:54.439 have to concentrate fully on the game. He kind of 1478 01:32:54.439 --> 01:32:59.159 helps him to relax, he said, so. Brian Shallabby says, well, 1479 01:32:59.199 --> 01:33:01.119 you know, I don't have any time for something like this, 1480 01:33:02.560 --> 01:33:05.000 but I know how popular online gaming has become in 1481 01:33:05.000 --> 01:33:07.000 the past few years worldwide. As matter of fact, top 1482 01:33:07.039 --> 01:33:10.239 gamers in the world earn millions of dollars in gaming. 1483 01:33:10.600 --> 01:33:12.680 Show the chart that he put up there, the twenty 1484 01:33:12.800 --> 01:33:16.840 richest online gamers. Here's the guy pootye Pie, you know, 1485 01:33:16.960 --> 01:33:22.800 making over sixty million. Under him, is Richard Ninja, Tyler 1486 01:33:22.880 --> 01:33:28.159 Blevins making forty million, Michael Shroud is making twenty eight million, 1487 01:33:28.199 --> 01:33:31.479 and so forth. Right, so these people are making lots 1488 01:33:31.479 --> 01:33:35.319 of money playing video games branchial hobby. Says well, I 1489 01:33:35.319 --> 01:33:37.359 suspect this is not a hobby for most of these 1490 01:33:37.399 --> 01:33:39.840 serious gamers who are making tens of millions of dollars, 1491 01:33:40.479 --> 01:33:42.399 and a whole bunch of them, the one who is 1492 01:33:42.720 --> 01:33:46.920 the twenty richest online gamers, the poorest one of them, 1493 01:33:47.720 --> 01:33:50.800 is making over a million dollars a year. He says, 1494 01:33:51.720 --> 01:33:53.960 It's basically a full time job for these people, right, 1495 01:33:54.439 --> 01:33:57.000 they're out there competitively, and they're making tens of millions 1496 01:33:57.039 --> 01:34:00.960 of dollars, he says, at least for a slight few 1497 01:34:01.000 --> 01:34:03.159 who are among the top players worldwide. So if somebody 1498 01:34:03.239 --> 01:34:04.880 can claim that they're in the top twenty of a 1499 01:34:04.960 --> 01:34:09.800 game that is being played by millions of online gamers worldwide, 1500 01:34:09.800 --> 01:34:12.359 what does that say about the person and the amount 1501 01:34:12.359 --> 01:34:16.960 of time that he spends online gaming? He said, I 1502 01:34:16.960 --> 01:34:19.359 would assume that pretty much everyone reading this article knows 1503 01:34:19.399 --> 01:34:22.439 of people who are addicted to online gaming, just as 1504 01:34:22.520 --> 01:34:25.079 much as I know people who are addicted to gambling. 1505 01:34:25.880 --> 01:34:28.359 But what kind of people are they? If you know 1506 01:34:28.439 --> 01:34:30.720 them or you know of them, Are they the type 1507 01:34:30.720 --> 01:34:35.119 of people who usually corporate CEOs or rich doctors or 1508 01:34:35.239 --> 01:34:39.399 rich lawyers. I personally don't know any gamers who spend 1509 01:34:39.479 --> 01:34:43.159 that much time online and who are also successful business 1510 01:34:43.199 --> 01:34:47.359 owners or professionals. Because spending so much time online gaming 1511 01:34:47.960 --> 01:34:50.960 to boast that you are in the top twenty worldwide 1512 01:34:51.000 --> 01:34:53.199 of a game that is one of the most popular 1513 01:34:53.239 --> 01:34:56.239 that has millions of people playing, you wouldn't have enough 1514 01:34:56.279 --> 01:35:01.079 time to run your business or to practice your PF successfully. 1515 01:35:01.760 --> 01:35:03.920 So this begs a question that I've previously asked about 1516 01:35:03.960 --> 01:35:10.680 Elon Musk. Is he smart or is he just rich stupid? Well, 1517 01:35:11.079 --> 01:35:14.039 you know, there's also I'm surprised that Brian didn't put 1518 01:35:14.039 --> 01:35:16.760 it in here. But there's also the thing where Satan 1519 01:35:16.840 --> 01:35:20.880 Diablo says, worship me, I have all the kingdoms of 1520 01:35:20.920 --> 01:35:24.600 the world. I can give you everything. Jesus didn't say no, 1521 01:35:24.720 --> 01:35:30.159 you can't. You're lying to me, he responded. He says, 1522 01:35:30.199 --> 01:35:32.600 it's in my power to do that. He didn't say no, 1523 01:35:32.640 --> 01:35:36.000 it's not your power to do that. It is in 1524 01:35:36.039 --> 01:35:39.239 Satan's power to give that whoever he wishes. Maybe he 1525 01:35:39.279 --> 01:35:41.960 gives it to people who wear Bahomet costumes and upside 1526 01:35:42.000 --> 01:35:47.039 down crosses. He says, I think the answer is clearer now. 1527 01:35:47.119 --> 01:35:49.720 Musk did not invent the Tesla, but he bought it 1528 01:35:49.800 --> 01:35:52.560 from the guys who did. And his SpaceX company has 1529 01:35:52.600 --> 01:35:55.279 become rich on government contracts, and the evidence is that 1530 01:35:55.359 --> 01:35:58.239 he is almost no hands on management of SpaceX, but 1531 01:35:58.279 --> 01:36:01.039 he is wealthy enough to buy people who are smart 1532 01:36:01.680 --> 01:36:04.600 and who do all the work. While Musk may get 1533 01:36:04.640 --> 01:36:09.880 credit for SpaceX's ambitious mission to make life multiplanetary, he 1534 01:36:09.920 --> 01:36:17.119 says SpaceX's org chart confirms something long understood by insiders 1535 01:36:17.119 --> 01:36:19.239 of the one hundred and eighty billion dollar rocket startup. 1536 01:36:19.920 --> 01:36:24.479 The president and chief operating Officer, Gwyn Shotwell is the 1537 01:36:24.479 --> 01:36:28.279 one who's running the show. Shot Well overseas nearly every 1538 01:36:28.319 --> 01:36:31.520 single team at SpaceX, which is around thirteen thousand employees 1539 01:36:31.520 --> 01:36:36.199 at facilities spread across California, Texas, and Florida. Her twenty 1540 01:36:36.199 --> 01:36:41.119 one direct reports include executives running the satellites internet business, Starlink, 1541 01:36:41.840 --> 01:36:46.159 the Falcon rocket launch business, and the development of SpaceX's 1542 01:36:46.199 --> 01:36:51.199 ambitious new rocket Starship. And that's according to an internal 1543 01:36:51.359 --> 01:36:57.319 ORG chart. Among those direct reports to Shotwell is the 1544 01:36:57.399 --> 01:37:02.159 top engineer, the chief financial office, or et cetera. Musk 1545 01:37:02.760 --> 01:37:05.079 seems to have a lot of enemies on Wall Street, 1546 01:37:05.960 --> 01:37:08.680 and they're probably and also not happy about his desire 1547 01:37:08.720 --> 01:37:13.560 to replace banks with companies like X, which Musk wants 1548 01:37:13.640 --> 01:37:17.920 to turn into the largest payment and bank replacement app 1549 01:37:18.000 --> 01:37:19.399 in the world. Here's a reminder. 1550 01:37:20.000 --> 01:37:26.159 Essentially, if done right, the X would be with serve 1551 01:37:26.199 --> 01:37:29.119 people's financial needs to such a degree that over time 1552 01:37:29.199 --> 01:37:33.680 it would become I don't know, maybe half of the 1553 01:37:33.760 --> 01:37:37.680 global financial system wow, or some big number. I'm not 1554 01:37:37.680 --> 01:37:41.159 sure what the numbers are pretty big, so it would 1555 01:37:41.159 --> 01:37:45.920 be by far the biggest sort of financial institution. Like 1556 01:37:45.920 --> 01:37:47.479 I said, not really in the way that people are 1557 01:37:47.520 --> 01:37:52.800 used to thinking about banks, just just the most efficient 1558 01:37:55.039 --> 01:37:58.680 database with a thing that is money. They said, like 1559 01:37:58.880 --> 01:38:03.920 at least amount of fraud. Everything's real time and if 1560 01:38:03.960 --> 01:38:05.960 it involves money in any way to be dealt with 1561 01:38:06.119 --> 01:38:08.279 seamlessly on one of the location. 1562 01:38:09.079 --> 01:38:11.479 And you know, as they said, whatever we're kind of 1563 01:38:11.560 --> 01:38:14.560 using for money, you know, whatever that is, and we're 1564 01:38:14.560 --> 01:38:16.680 going to talk about that as well. We're going to 1565 01:38:16.680 --> 01:38:22.520 talk about tokenization and how that is. I think the 1566 01:38:22.560 --> 01:38:24.239 direction that they're going it's going to be the de 1567 01:38:24.359 --> 01:38:28.119 facto central bake digital currency. People are onto this game. 1568 01:38:28.600 --> 01:38:32.720 If you know, Biden does it with decrees and declarations 1569 01:38:32.840 --> 01:38:35.439 and here's all of government order for how we're going 1570 01:38:35.520 --> 01:38:37.920 to roll this thing out. People like Biden, people like 1571 01:38:37.920 --> 01:38:41.039 Elizabeth Warren, they're not as dangerous as people like Trump 1572 01:38:41.119 --> 01:38:44.119 and Musk. Those guys will come after you in a 1573 01:38:44.199 --> 01:38:48.640 very subtle way. And as Soilin Goy says, my gutards 1574 01:38:48.680 --> 01:38:51.359 will cheer for digital ID if Trump sells it as 1575 01:38:51.399 --> 01:38:54.720 a way to stop illegal immigration and election fraud. And 1576 01:38:54.760 --> 01:38:57.119 I'll also add another one, the Christians will jump behind 1577 01:38:57.159 --> 01:39:00.359 it if he uses it as a way to stop 1578 01:39:00.479 --> 01:39:04.359 online porn for kids in Australia. They've just said we're 1579 01:39:04.359 --> 01:39:08.560 going to make it illegal for kids to get on 1580 01:39:08.600 --> 01:39:10.279 to social media before I think it's the age of 1581 01:39:10.279 --> 01:39:13.319 sixteen or something like that. They want to be the parents, 1582 01:39:13.359 --> 01:39:15.760 They want to you know, why can't parents do that? 1583 01:39:16.399 --> 01:39:20.800 I think it's a very bad idea for kids to 1584 01:39:20.920 --> 01:39:23.239 be on social media, especially the younger they are. The 1585 01:39:23.279 --> 01:39:25.800 worse idea it is. But it's a bad idea even 1586 01:39:25.840 --> 01:39:28.680 when you get older. It's a bad idea to spend 1587 01:39:28.760 --> 01:39:33.760 much time on social media, really bad idea. But why 1588 01:39:33.760 --> 01:39:35.319 can't we do that ourselves? Why do we need to 1589 01:39:35.359 --> 01:39:38.960 have government do that? Why can't parents do that? Why? Well, 1590 01:39:39.000 --> 01:39:41.479 you know, parents need to be able to say I'm sorry, 1591 01:39:41.600 --> 01:39:44.479 but you can't do that because that's against the law. 1592 01:39:46.560 --> 01:39:48.520 The parents are so weak that they don't have any 1593 01:39:48.520 --> 01:39:52.079 printal authority anymore. Oh yeah, that's the case, I think, 1594 01:39:53.119 --> 01:39:55.279 And so we get weaker and weaker. But yeah, you 1595 01:39:55.399 --> 01:39:59.000 throw in the porn stuff and the Conservatives and the 1596 01:39:59.079 --> 01:40:02.159 Christian maga people jump on it. Yeah, everybody's got to 1597 01:40:02.159 --> 01:40:03.720 have an id to do everything. Got to have an 1598 01:40:03.760 --> 01:40:09.640 ID to get online, travel, move anywhere. Jason Barker Knights 1599 01:40:09.640 --> 01:40:12.359 of the Storm exactly, David, I've been pointing this out. 1600 01:40:12.399 --> 01:40:15.399 Elin is not a genius except for grifting. He is 1601 01:40:15.520 --> 01:40:18.279 a genius in terms of manipulating politicians. And we've just 1602 01:40:18.319 --> 01:40:22.560 seen that he can understand who the people are that 1603 01:40:22.640 --> 01:40:25.560 he needs to get behind to get what he wants. 1604 01:40:25.680 --> 01:40:28.119 He is a genius at that. It's kind of like 1605 01:40:28.239 --> 01:40:31.479 the Jeffrey Epstein tapes that came out by the guy 1606 01:40:31.479 --> 01:40:34.119 who wrote a book about Trump, and he interviewed Jeffrey 1607 01:40:34.159 --> 01:40:39.239 Epstein before Jeffrey Epstein died, we'll just say, whatever happened, 1608 01:40:40.560 --> 01:40:42.960 or maybe he disappeared. Well, you know again, a lot 1609 01:40:42.960 --> 01:40:46.760 of people think he didn't die, so before he he 1610 01:40:47.119 --> 01:40:53.920 left us just inclusively there, he did an interview with 1611 01:40:53.960 --> 01:40:57.000 this guy, right and they put the audio stuff up 1612 01:40:57.039 --> 01:41:00.920 as a last minute dig at Trump because he said 1613 01:41:01.319 --> 01:41:04.720 certain things like he said Trump he says he's not 1614 01:41:04.760 --> 01:41:07.560 a businessman, he doesn't know how to read a balance sheet. 1615 01:41:08.239 --> 01:41:10.560 He's awful at all that he says. But he's a 1616 01:41:10.600 --> 01:41:13.159 genius at one thing. He knows real estate, and he 1617 01:41:13.239 --> 01:41:16.800 knows where to find the value in real estate. And 1618 01:41:16.840 --> 01:41:19.359 I think that's the case with Elon Musk. He's a 1619 01:41:19.439 --> 01:41:21.680 genius at knowing who to find the people that he 1620 01:41:21.720 --> 01:41:25.119 needs to manipulate. Again, Jason Barker, Knights of the Storm. 1621 01:41:25.199 --> 01:41:28.720 You'll see him on Twitter as well as go to 1622 01:41:28.880 --> 01:41:30.720 the Knights. I think it's the Knights of the Storm 1623 01:41:31.039 --> 01:41:33.800 dot com. But if you go there, they've got a 1624 01:41:33.880 --> 01:41:36.319 list of programs and they were nice enough to include me, 1625 01:41:36.880 --> 01:41:40.239 But a lot of programs like Guard Goldsmith's program, Liberty 1626 01:41:40.279 --> 01:41:47.159 Conspiracy and many many others, And so a whole bunch 1627 01:41:47.159 --> 01:41:50.319 of people that I think are honest and that they 1628 01:41:50.359 --> 01:41:53.560 think are honest, that tell you what they really think 1629 01:41:54.159 --> 01:41:56.960 rather than trying to tell the room what the room 1630 01:41:57.000 --> 01:42:01.319 wants to hear. It's a really important thing. Thank you 1631 01:42:01.399 --> 01:42:03.960 very much for the tip, Doug. I appreciate that. Well, 1632 01:42:04.239 --> 01:42:08.159 just real quickly before we leave this AI thing. This 1633 01:42:08.439 --> 01:42:13.920 from expose a News in the UK expose a News 1634 01:42:13.920 --> 01:42:17.199 dot com. Those who push for a transhuman AI future 1635 01:42:18.119 --> 01:42:22.439 are part of a clinically insane, anti life, demonic cult 1636 01:42:23.560 --> 01:42:26.479 that's right now. One thing about that is that the 1637 01:42:26.479 --> 01:42:29.079 technocracy will put themselves out there as not being anti life. 1638 01:42:29.119 --> 01:42:32.000 They want you to have more kids that they can control. 1639 01:42:33.039 --> 01:42:36.880 But it is a demonic cult, Julia Rose writes. To 1640 01:42:36.920 --> 01:42:40.279 resist this enslavement, people must adopt a lifestyle that is 1641 01:42:40.319 --> 01:42:43.680 the opposite of one that is dependent on digital technology, 1642 01:42:44.039 --> 01:42:46.920 starting by recognizing their reliance on it and taking steps 1643 01:42:46.920 --> 01:42:50.000 to release themselves from its control. And you know, just 1644 01:42:50.039 --> 01:42:53.319 as I talked about yesterday, releasing yourself from the control 1645 01:42:53.960 --> 01:42:55.800 of I've got to go to college and I've got 1646 01:42:55.840 --> 01:42:57.600 to get a job with a big corporation, that type 1647 01:42:57.600 --> 01:42:59.239 of thing, right, I mean, it used to be you 1648 01:42:59.239 --> 01:43:01.479 can get a job and that was a job for 1649 01:43:01.520 --> 01:43:04.239 life or someone. Those days are long gone. That was 1650 01:43:04.279 --> 01:43:07.600 really dying, even when I was an engineer forty five 1651 01:43:07.680 --> 01:43:12.079 years ago. But she says, tapping into this common sense 1652 01:43:12.079 --> 01:43:16.319 and freeing oneself from the blind acceptance of the digital 1653 01:43:16.359 --> 01:43:20.039 control system, because that's going to be another place that 1654 01:43:20.079 --> 01:43:23.760 it inserts itself. The proponents of a transhumanist AI future 1655 01:43:23.800 --> 01:43:28.439 are clinically insane, anti life, demon a demonic cult. Do 1656 01:43:28.520 --> 01:43:31.239 I still want to do business with him? And you know, 1657 01:43:31.239 --> 01:43:34.560 when we look at AI, it is the essence of 1658 01:43:35.680 --> 01:43:40.199 Satanic cult. You know, Satan doesn't create, he copies what 1659 01:43:40.319 --> 01:43:44.000 God has created. And that's exactly what it does. He 1660 01:43:44.079 --> 01:43:48.039 is the father of lies. AI is designed to lie. 1661 01:43:49.199 --> 01:43:52.479 AI is designed to surveil us and to pull out 1662 01:43:52.520 --> 01:43:56.119 and amplify our faults to the people who want to 1663 01:43:56.159 --> 01:43:58.920 rule over us as if they were God. One can 1664 01:43:58.960 --> 01:44:01.319 only put an end to something by first recognizing its 1665 01:44:01.319 --> 01:44:05.800 existence and one's reliance upon it. This is the first 1666 01:44:05.840 --> 01:44:08.479 phase of release from slavery and in taking control of 1667 01:44:08.520 --> 01:44:12.760 one's destiny. So what could such a diametrically opposite lifestyle 1668 01:44:13.560 --> 01:44:19.319 to one of a toxic it dependency, b and practice. 1669 01:44:19.319 --> 01:44:21.039 It could take many different forms, it could go many 1670 01:44:21.039 --> 01:44:23.239 different directions, but it'd all be about getting out of 1671 01:44:23.359 --> 01:44:27.720 jail while one still can. And you said, down, that's 1672 01:44:27.720 --> 01:44:29.840 one of the reasons why they call them cell phones. 1673 01:44:30.880 --> 01:44:33.600 It's the way of keeping us in an open air, 1674 01:44:33.640 --> 01:44:36.279 wireless prison, if you will. It's going to be increasingly 1675 01:44:36.399 --> 01:44:39.640 used for that. But what she does is she focuses 1676 01:44:39.760 --> 01:44:41.720 on electricity being at the center of that. And I've 1677 01:44:41.760 --> 01:44:43.880 said that for the longest time that the electric grid 1678 01:44:43.920 --> 01:44:47.079 and the reason they are so manic to replace everything 1679 01:44:47.720 --> 01:44:51.159 with all electric compliances, all electric heating and air conditioning, 1680 01:44:51.239 --> 01:44:53.680 everything has got to be electric. It's got to be 1681 01:44:53.720 --> 01:44:56.960 battery operated. It can't have like a fuel cell that 1682 01:44:57.079 --> 01:45:02.760 generates the electricity because you must be to the electric grid, 1683 01:45:03.119 --> 01:45:06.119 because the electric grid is going to be their control grid. 1684 01:45:06.680 --> 01:45:10.520 And that's why they're so manic about it. Public transportation, 1685 01:45:10.640 --> 01:45:15.520 private cars, cooking, heat pumps, home heating, air conditioning, metering systems, 1686 01:45:15.560 --> 01:45:20.199 telephone chargers, all communication tools, all household items, street lights, 1687 01:45:20.319 --> 01:45:22.720 ventilation systems, and on and on. It's all going to 1688 01:45:22.720 --> 01:45:26.439 be tied to the grid to monitor and to control you. 1689 01:45:28.239 --> 01:45:32.560 And so when she talks about this, she's very concerned 1690 01:45:32.760 --> 01:45:39.119 about EMF perhaps, you know, if there's nanoparticles or things 1691 01:45:39.159 --> 01:45:41.680 like that in the vaccines or the chemtrails, it's going 1692 01:45:41.720 --> 01:45:46.640 to be manipulating us. But where we part ways is 1693 01:45:46.680 --> 01:45:50.119 where she says, we are on Earth, but we are 1694 01:45:50.199 --> 01:45:55.159 from the Cosmos. We're universal sparks of the supreme nucleus 1695 01:45:55.239 --> 01:45:57.720 that brought all life into being. Now she's heading into 1696 01:45:57.720 --> 01:46:01.399 this technocracy new age nonsense that Alex does all the time, 1697 01:46:01.960 --> 01:46:06.000 Alex Jones, you know, and it is absolute nonsense. It 1698 01:46:06.079 --> 01:46:10.960 is anesthetical to what we believe is Christians, And we 1699 01:46:10.960 --> 01:46:15.920 don't come from the cosmos. We were divinely created, and 1700 01:46:16.520 --> 01:46:19.760 so we don't ignore that. And here's an example of that. 1701 01:46:20.000 --> 01:46:24.880 For example, we have the human brain. This is an 1702 01:46:24.920 --> 01:46:28.800 interesting article. A decade ago, a small, unassuming brain sample 1703 01:46:28.880 --> 01:46:33.640 arrived at doctor Jeff Lickman's lab at Harvard University. It 1704 01:46:33.720 --> 01:46:38.760 measured less in size than a grain of rice. And 1705 01:46:38.880 --> 01:46:43.479 yet this one cubic millimeter of tissue contained fifty seven 1706 01:46:43.600 --> 01:46:47.239 thousand cells and one hundred and one hundred and fifty 1707 01:46:47.319 --> 01:46:51.399 million set apses, each one a vital part of the 1708 01:46:51.439 --> 01:46:56.119 brain's intricate communication system. You said, this thing is part 1709 01:46:56.159 --> 01:47:00.239 of brain tissue that is smaller than a grain of ice, 1710 01:47:02.079 --> 01:47:06.479 is more complicated and more interconnected than all these networks 1711 01:47:06.520 --> 01:47:09.600 that they're talking about. Doesn't that say to you that 1712 01:47:09.920 --> 01:47:12.880 it was created by God, that it was a created 1713 01:47:12.920 --> 01:47:15.680 and designed thing. It just didn't happen by random chance. 1714 01:47:15.720 --> 01:47:19.000 It couldn't. And when you look at its design, truly 1715 01:47:19.079 --> 01:47:23.960 is amazing. Because you get this many synapses and transistors 1716 01:47:24.000 --> 01:47:26.199 and things like that, you're going to have to have 1717 01:47:26.279 --> 01:47:31.479 some heat issues with it. And yet for the entire brain, 1718 01:47:31.520 --> 01:47:34.079 not just for a little piece of it that's smaller 1719 01:47:34.119 --> 01:47:38.000 than a grain of rice, all the calculations that are 1720 01:47:38.039 --> 01:47:41.760 being done by our brain. It's not overheating. Isn't that interesting? 1721 01:47:42.479 --> 01:47:45.600 After a decade of collaboration with Google scientist, a monumental 1722 01:47:45.680 --> 01:47:50.680 data set of fourteen hundred terabytes has turned in the 1723 01:47:50.680 --> 01:47:53.319 most detailed map of the human brain ever created. A 1724 01:47:53.399 --> 01:47:56.640 terabyte is for most people gigantic, yet a fragment of 1725 01:47:56.760 --> 01:48:01.760 a human brain, just a minuscule, keeny weeny little bit 1726 01:48:02.119 --> 01:48:06.800 of human brain. Still thousands and thousands of terabytes, They said, 1727 01:48:07.520 --> 01:48:11.359 the detail three D reconstruction reveals beautiful structures in the brain, 1728 01:48:11.840 --> 01:48:15.479 neurons forming dozens of connections. Plup some of the pictures 1729 01:48:15.479 --> 01:48:17.399 that they have there because they've gone in, look at 1730 01:48:17.399 --> 01:48:24.039 that dozens of connections, mirror image, neutral pairs, networks far 1731 01:48:24.079 --> 01:48:27.920 more complex than expected. See, if they thought that this 1732 01:48:28.000 --> 01:48:30.640 all just came together by random chance processes, they wouldn't 1733 01:48:30.640 --> 01:48:33.119 expect this kind of complexity, just like they didn't expect 1734 01:48:33.159 --> 01:48:37.560 the complexity of DNA, and they still don't understand it. 1735 01:48:38.119 --> 01:48:39.720 They'll still come in and say, you know, most of 1736 01:48:39.760 --> 01:48:43.079 the DNA's junk DNA. No, that means that you don't 1737 01:48:43.159 --> 01:48:47.760 understand it. These are some of the groundbreaking discoveries, they said, 1738 01:48:47.760 --> 01:48:49.840 I remember the moment going into the map and looking 1739 01:48:49.880 --> 01:48:53.479 at just one individual synapse from the woman's brain and 1740 01:48:53.520 --> 01:48:58.600 then zooming out into these other millions of pixels set 1741 01:48:58.640 --> 01:49:07.640 a senior scientist at Google, it felt sort of spiritual excitatory. 1742 01:49:07.920 --> 01:49:11.000 Neurons color coded by size, with red being the largest 1743 01:49:11.000 --> 01:49:14.800 and blue the smallest. Cell cores range from fifteen to 1744 01:49:15.039 --> 01:49:20.159 thirty micrometers, they said. One unexpected discovery in the study 1745 01:49:21.079 --> 01:49:28.560 was the presence of axon whorls who rls tangled loops 1746 01:49:28.560 --> 01:49:33.039 of blue axons, which typically transmit signals away from nerve cells. 1747 01:49:33.760 --> 01:49:37.079 These structures were rare in the sample, and sometimes they 1748 01:49:37.079 --> 01:49:45.079 appear to be resting on yellow cells. Their purpose remains unclear. Well, again, 1749 01:49:45.159 --> 01:49:50.560 we can see that we are all created. That's very clear. 1750 01:49:51.159 --> 01:49:54.079 It's clear, and creation it's clear. When the more we 1751 01:49:54.119 --> 01:49:57.359 look and the more we know, the less excuse there 1752 01:49:57.399 --> 01:50:00.760 is to deny that there is a creator. And yet 1753 01:50:00.760 --> 01:50:03.279 when you see that there is a creator like this brain, 1754 01:50:05.199 --> 01:50:10.760 the purpose can still be unclear. And so I think 1755 01:50:10.800 --> 01:50:13.720 the purpose is clear when you read the Bible. I 1756 01:50:13.760 --> 01:50:18.760 think the Bible has many proofs in it that whether 1757 01:50:18.800 --> 01:50:23.479 you're talking about prophecy centuries ahead of time, that can 1758 01:50:23.520 --> 01:50:26.359 be validated the age of the books as well as 1759 01:50:26.760 --> 01:50:30.399 what exactly happened when we talk about prophecy, when you 1760 01:50:30.479 --> 01:50:36.119 talk about the internal consistency with it, many other things, archaeology, 1761 01:50:36.159 --> 01:50:41.239 all these other outside proofs, but clearly, if you read it, 1762 01:50:41.319 --> 01:50:44.359 I think with an open mind, you will see that 1763 01:50:44.760 --> 01:50:47.479 purpose that is there. We're going to take a quick 1764 01:50:47.479 --> 01:50:50.159 break and we will be right back. 1765 01:52:24.199 --> 01:52:30.079 Making sense common again. You're listening to the David Knight Show. 1766 01:52:33.520 --> 01:52:36.159 Well, welcome back. McGowan fan says David. I'm a chartered 1767 01:52:36.199 --> 01:52:40.760 financial analyst and I attended events concerning tokenization. Please post 1768 01:52:40.760 --> 01:52:42.439 a segment about this so I can pass it along. 1769 01:52:42.520 --> 01:52:46.760 We don't see the danger book smarts versus street smarts. Well, 1770 01:52:46.800 --> 01:52:50.000 there happens to be an excellent article about tokenization on 1771 01:52:50.279 --> 01:52:55.279 Wine Press News and it refers to Gerald Silent's Trends 1772 01:52:55.359 --> 01:52:59.039 Journal back in December of twenty twenty three. Saw this 1773 01:52:59.159 --> 01:53:01.560 coming and he's got one of the best explanations and 1774 01:53:01.600 --> 01:53:03.880 trends journal I've seen anywhere. By the way, you can 1775 01:53:03.920 --> 01:53:08.560 get ten percent off of Transjournal Jeralsalint's trans Journal with 1776 01:53:08.640 --> 01:53:11.039 a code night. Just go to trends Journal dot com. 1777 01:53:11.039 --> 01:53:14.439 You can see samples of it there, excellent stuff and relevant. 1778 01:53:14.520 --> 01:53:19.680 It's not about Taylor Swift, It's about tokenization. And so 1779 01:53:19.960 --> 01:53:22.920 wine Press News comments and says it may not get 1780 01:53:22.920 --> 01:53:25.840 announce of mainstream or even alternative media coverage, but right now, 1781 01:53:25.920 --> 01:53:30.960 world central banks, financial juggernauts, fintech groups are rapidly developing 1782 01:53:30.960 --> 01:53:34.159 a system by which literally everything will be converted into 1783 01:53:34.199 --> 01:53:38.840 a unique digital record stored on a blockchain. This process 1784 01:53:38.880 --> 01:53:42.119 is known as tokenization, where all things will be converted 1785 01:53:42.119 --> 01:53:46.079 into a token, a piece of digital representation that's then bought, sold, 1786 01:53:46.119 --> 01:53:50.119 and traded as a commodity. This system is needed to 1787 01:53:50.199 --> 01:53:55.399 truly enable proper effectiveness for central bank digital currencies. Such 1788 01:53:55.439 --> 01:53:58.760 a system would fully allow central banks and asset managers 1789 01:53:59.039 --> 01:54:02.479 to know precisely what people possess at all times, as 1790 01:54:02.560 --> 01:54:08.000 all transactions and purchases would be completely tracked and mitigated 1791 01:54:08.039 --> 01:54:10.960 in real time, and would us fulfill the ominous statement 1792 01:54:11.000 --> 01:54:13.279 by the World Economic Form that you will own nothing 1793 01:54:14.000 --> 01:54:18.439 but be happy. Right, and so this is the type 1794 01:54:18.560 --> 01:54:21.560 of this tokenization. I think maybe you should call it 1795 01:54:21.680 --> 01:54:25.039 fiatization in a sense because they can take things that 1796 01:54:25.079 --> 01:54:27.560 are worthless. I mean, look at the NFTs, right, non 1797 01:54:27.600 --> 01:54:31.880 fungible tokens, and Trump is certainly on board of that. 1798 01:54:31.920 --> 01:54:35.760 He's made a lot of money selling some artwork to 1799 01:54:35.840 --> 01:54:39.439 people inflated prices and saying it's unique. You now own 1800 01:54:39.520 --> 01:54:42.119 this type of thing, and they can trace the ownership 1801 01:54:42.239 --> 01:54:44.319 of it, so they can authenticate it just in the 1802 01:54:44.359 --> 01:54:48.640 same way that you would authenticate a signature on a 1803 01:54:49.079 --> 01:54:52.279 even more easily like you would authenticate a signature on 1804 01:54:52.319 --> 01:54:55.800 a baseball by a baseball player something like that. But 1805 01:54:55.880 --> 01:54:59.920 certainly they understand this, I think is all about the 1806 01:55:00.479 --> 01:55:02.800 when we start to look at things like ETFs and 1807 01:55:02.800 --> 01:55:05.039 stuff like that. We've looked at that in the past. 1808 01:55:04.760 --> 01:55:04.840 And. 1809 01:55:06.680 --> 01:55:12.520 Paper gold and paper silver. You've had derivatives like we 1810 01:55:12.920 --> 01:55:14.800 kind of blew up the real estate market. You know, 1811 01:55:14.840 --> 01:55:19.159 real estate derivatives are not real estate. Okay, paper gold 1812 01:55:19.239 --> 01:55:22.119 is not gold, paper silver is not silver. But by 1813 01:55:22.239 --> 01:55:26.640 putting things in a derivative status, and what they're doing 1814 01:55:26.680 --> 01:55:29.479 is they're kind of adding this blockchain aspect of it, 1815 01:55:30.880 --> 01:55:34.680 which is supposed to give it some authenticity and yet 1816 01:55:34.920 --> 01:55:36.479 at the same time it's going to make it very, 1817 01:55:36.560 --> 01:55:40.039 very traceable. That's one of the things that Steve Chennik 1818 01:55:40.119 --> 01:55:42.199 was saying with the stings. Hey, look we can You know, 1819 01:55:42.520 --> 01:55:45.399 we had blockchain watermark ballots, so we can trace all 1820 01:55:45.439 --> 01:55:47.720 these things. Those guys have been plotting this kind of 1821 01:55:47.720 --> 01:55:49.840 stuff for quite some time now. Of course that was 1822 01:55:49.880 --> 01:55:52.239 a lie, they didn't have that, but that would be 1823 01:55:52.279 --> 01:55:54.520 the way that you would track what people do, whether 1824 01:55:54.520 --> 01:55:57.159 they're voting or doing something else. So in December twenty 1825 01:55:57.199 --> 01:56:02.039 twenty three, tuns Journal warned envision for a moment a 1826 01:56:02.079 --> 01:56:06.399 mechanism where every single conceivable asset, including life itself or 1827 01:56:06.439 --> 01:56:10.680 life expectancy, which is also an asset, is reduced into 1828 01:56:10.800 --> 01:56:13.840 a token. Well, I'm here to reveal to you that 1829 01:56:13.920 --> 01:56:16.840 this is exactly what is going to happen. The new 1830 01:56:16.880 --> 01:56:20.880 tokenized system is going to represent, he says. Pay attention 1831 01:56:20.920 --> 01:56:26.039 to that word represent not just currency and other financial 1832 01:56:26.079 --> 01:56:31.680 assets such as real estate, but all assets, including you, 1833 01:56:31.680 --> 01:56:36.039 your past, what you have done, even speculation on what 1834 01:56:36.079 --> 01:56:39.960 you may do, including things like your life expectancy. Understand 1835 01:56:40.000 --> 01:56:41.760 that the Internet of Things is also going to be 1836 01:56:41.760 --> 01:56:43.880 the Internet of people, because they see you as a 1837 01:56:43.960 --> 01:56:47.840 thing that needs to be tracked and traced. What you earn, 1838 01:56:48.279 --> 01:56:51.600 what you will potentially earn in the future, what you buy, 1839 01:56:51.720 --> 01:56:57.399 what you may buy past illnesses, potential future illnesses, family history, 1840 01:56:57.439 --> 01:57:00.279 what medications you take, what medications you will probably we 1841 01:57:00.399 --> 01:57:04.760 need in the future, You're vax record, your DNA, et cetera. 1842 01:57:05.720 --> 01:57:10.279 Which means that this new token based system in its entirety, 1843 01:57:11.199 --> 01:57:17.920 will reduce, will represent everything to a digital tradable asset. 1844 01:57:18.720 --> 01:57:21.479 Human life is going to become a tradable, cross border 1845 01:57:21.560 --> 01:57:26.439 convertible asset along with every manner of its associated derivatives. 1846 01:57:27.079 --> 01:57:32.199 Tokenization is simple and incredibly cost effective. Tokenization eliminates the 1847 01:57:32.239 --> 01:57:35.479 need for any asset to be converted into something else 1848 01:57:35.640 --> 01:57:38.800 or transactions that take place anywhere in the world. This 1849 01:57:39.119 --> 01:57:43.359 is the universal new world, one world system. And when 1850 01:57:43.399 --> 01:57:46.680 Eli Musk starts talking about well, I can see that 1851 01:57:46.960 --> 01:57:50.119 X is going to be some way that we have money, 1852 01:57:50.159 --> 01:57:54.159 whatever money is, whatever they've tokenized, and they want to 1853 01:57:54.159 --> 01:57:56.840 be able to track and trace, and you know, he says, 1854 01:57:57.079 --> 01:57:58.680 we could do that there, and I could see it 1855 01:57:58.720 --> 01:58:03.600 being half of the world transactions. So again, what is 1856 01:58:03.640 --> 01:58:05.720 a token? Will Winepress News says, according to the Bank 1857 01:58:05.720 --> 01:58:08.920 of International Settlements, a relatively unknown entity referred to as 1858 01:58:08.920 --> 01:58:12.600 the Central Banks of central banks, whose mission is to 1859 01:58:12.680 --> 01:58:16.680 quote support central banks pursuit of monetary and financial stability 1860 01:58:17.279 --> 01:58:20.479 through international cooperation, and to act as a bank for 1861 01:58:20.600 --> 01:58:26.800 central banks. That's their definition. They define tokenization as quote 1862 01:58:26.880 --> 01:58:31.640 the process of representing claims digitally on a programmable platform 1863 01:58:31.960 --> 01:58:36.720 unquote like X, you know maybe or any of these, 1864 01:58:37.199 --> 01:58:40.199 adding that a token can be seen as an next 1865 01:58:40.279 --> 01:58:45.800 logical step in digital record keeping and asset transfer. A 1866 01:58:45.840 --> 01:58:48.159 token is a digital asset that can be manipulated by 1867 01:58:48.239 --> 01:58:51.880 financial institution. A tokenized customer's deposit is subject to the 1868 01:58:51.960 --> 01:58:55.600 rules defined by its issure. For example, the token may 1869 01:58:55.640 --> 01:58:58.000 be spent or exchange only within the scope of a 1870 01:58:58.039 --> 01:59:01.720 pre defined set of rules. An asset, for example, a 1871 01:59:01.720 --> 01:59:05.079 customer's bank deposit, may have rules and allow the money 1872 01:59:05.119 --> 01:59:08.520 to be spent only on certain services or products. This 1873 01:59:08.560 --> 01:59:10.640 is what we've talked about the danger of central bank 1874 01:59:10.640 --> 01:59:15.079 digital currency. Sorry you've had too much meat. I don't 1875 01:59:15.159 --> 01:59:18.680 like it when people buy more than x amount of 1876 01:59:18.720 --> 01:59:20.880 milk or whatever. You can't, I'm not going to approve 1877 01:59:20.920 --> 01:59:24.840 that transaction, block it, and they track everything that you 1878 01:59:24.960 --> 01:59:28.239 have consumed. Further, a token stores all information about the 1879 01:59:28.319 --> 01:59:33.399 underlying asset, the previous owners, the dates of purchase, sale, 1880 01:59:33.640 --> 01:59:37.399 transaction dates, etc. And this data is all stored on 1881 01:59:37.439 --> 01:59:42.039 the blockchain that is managed by a financial institution or 1882 01:59:42.079 --> 01:59:47.359 maybe by Elon Musk's X. You know, Larry Fink is 1883 01:59:47.359 --> 01:59:50.920 all about toganization, and Larry Fink says this election doesn't 1884 01:59:50.960 --> 01:59:53.279 change anything, doesn't change anything in terms of what he 1885 01:59:53.319 --> 01:59:56.359 wants to do, because he knows that this might actually 1886 01:59:56.399 --> 02:00:00.000 be a faster path. You got Trump who has had experience, 1887 02:00:00.079 --> 02:00:02.680 so then fts you've got Musk, who certainly knows what 1888 02:00:02.720 --> 02:00:05.880 this is all about. It's not going to change any 1889 02:00:06.079 --> 02:00:09.279 of Larry Fink Black Rock CEO, it's not going to 1890 02:00:09.399 --> 02:00:13.399 change any of his plans because he's fully on board 1891 02:00:13.439 --> 02:00:16.479 with tokenization. This is one of the reasons why and 1892 02:00:16.880 --> 02:00:19.640 you know, before we do we have Eric yet. Okay, good, 1893 02:00:21.279 --> 02:00:22.640 So before we go to Eric, this is one of 1894 02:00:22.680 --> 02:00:24.479 the reasons why I want to get out of this system. 1895 02:00:24.520 --> 02:00:28.319 I want to get out of digital. Tony Ardban has 1896 02:00:28.319 --> 02:00:31.439 set up David Knight dot Gold. You can start accumulating 1897 02:00:31.520 --> 02:00:34.840 gold and silver on a regular basis. He's set up 1898 02:00:35.039 --> 02:00:37.680 the wolf Pack so you can buy in fifty dollars 1899 02:00:37.760 --> 02:00:39.279 is the lowest level. I don't know what the highest 1900 02:00:39.359 --> 02:00:41.680 level is, but you can set up a savings program 1901 02:00:41.680 --> 02:00:44.680 and gradually accumulate this cost, average it and all the 1902 02:00:44.680 --> 02:00:47.640 rest of this, you know, on a regular basis as 1903 02:00:47.720 --> 02:00:49.560 kind of a wealth protection, but also to get out 1904 02:00:49.600 --> 02:00:51.199 of the system. Like I was just talking about the 1905 02:00:51.239 --> 02:00:55.239 other lady said, they want to trap. They want everything 1906 02:00:55.239 --> 02:00:57.840 to be electric so that we're trapped on their control grid. 1907 02:00:58.319 --> 02:01:00.279 They want everything to be on a blockchain. They can 1908 02:01:00.319 --> 02:01:03.680 see everything that we're doing. I don't want that, And 1909 02:01:03.720 --> 02:01:06.079 so if you want freedom, you've got to start thinking 1910 02:01:06.079 --> 02:01:10.960 about how you're going to actively get out of that system, 1911 02:01:11.079 --> 02:01:14.680 such your cell phone doesn't become your Gail cell and 1912 02:01:14.720 --> 02:01:18.359 all the rest of this, and tokenization is a huge 1913 02:01:18.399 --> 02:01:20.039 part of it, and we've got more that we could 1914 02:01:20.079 --> 02:01:22.079 say about it, but we're not going to do that today. 1915 02:01:22.399 --> 02:01:24.920 We're going to take a quick break and we will 1916 02:01:24.960 --> 02:01:26.119 be right back. 1917 02:02:03.720 --> 02:02:06.600 You know, world of deceit, Telling the truth is a 1918 02:02:06.640 --> 02:02:11.720 revolutionary act. You're listening to the David Knight Show. 1919 02:02:13.600 --> 02:02:16.359 All right, And joining us now is Eric Peters of 1920 02:02:16.479 --> 02:02:21.640 Eric Peters auto dot com autos plural Eric petersautos dot com. 1921 02:02:22.039 --> 02:02:24.000 And I wanted to get Eric on because he's had 1922 02:02:24.199 --> 02:02:26.439 He's posted several things about the election, and of course 1923 02:02:26.479 --> 02:02:28.640 also about cars. I always love to talk about cars 1924 02:02:28.640 --> 02:02:32.880 and transportation because that is a very important component today 1925 02:02:33.159 --> 02:02:35.520 of freedom, and that's what they want to take away 1926 02:02:35.520 --> 02:02:37.319 from us. Good to have you on, Eric, Thanks thank 1927 02:02:37.359 --> 02:02:38.079 you for joining us. 1928 02:02:38.319 --> 02:02:40.239 Oh, likewise, say thank you for having me. I'm not 1929 02:02:40.279 --> 02:02:45.279 sure whether to be leaved or nervous, and I'd like 1930 02:02:45.359 --> 02:02:48.079 to show the audience something in the way of the 1931 02:02:48.159 --> 02:02:51.159 historical remembers. You guys, remember this, This. 1932 02:02:51.119 --> 02:02:59.760 Is that's Bush clod I say the nose, I couldn't 1933 02:02:59.760 --> 02:03:01.239 say it was straight on. I couldn't say they had 1934 02:03:01.239 --> 02:03:02.159 like a Pinocchio thing. 1935 02:03:02.279 --> 02:03:04.520 Yeah, it was a real naval aviator. But the reason 1936 02:03:04.520 --> 02:03:08.199 that I wanted to bring him up people might recall 1937 02:03:08.720 --> 02:03:13.000 when conservatives Republicans, not so much libertarians, but conservatives and 1938 02:03:13.039 --> 02:03:16.520 Republicans were just ecstatic that George W. Bush meat al Gore. 1939 02:03:17.000 --> 02:03:19.960 You know, we had saved all the danger of al Gore. 1940 02:03:20.479 --> 02:03:23.439 And when he became the war president, he had something 1941 02:03:23.520 --> 02:03:27.199 like a ninety plus percent approval rating and essentially was 1942 02:03:27.239 --> 02:03:29.319 able to rule as a dictator. And he called himself 1943 02:03:29.399 --> 02:03:32.159 essentially that I am the desire. You remember that. Yeah, 1944 02:03:32.720 --> 02:03:34.479 And we got into great trouble because of that, and 1945 02:03:34.520 --> 02:03:36.960 then worse trouble followed on his heels. Because I believe 1946 02:03:37.000 --> 02:03:39.239 that it was on account of everything that George W. 1947 02:03:39.319 --> 02:03:42.760 Bush did that we ended up with Barack Obama, which 1948 02:03:42.840 --> 02:03:45.680 in turn gave us Trump and Biden and all the 1949 02:03:45.720 --> 02:03:48.199 rest of it. So these things do have consequences, and 1950 02:03:48.239 --> 02:03:50.479 I think it's important that well, you know, I'm very 1951 02:03:50.560 --> 02:03:54.720 much relieved that the overt communists didn't win this particular selection. 1952 02:03:55.520 --> 02:03:59.039 I'm still kind of nervous about what the Orange Man 1953 02:03:59.119 --> 02:04:02.359 might actually once he's inaugurated two months from now. 1954 02:04:02.680 --> 02:04:06.000 Oh yeah, yeah, I saw. You know, I've been talking 1955 02:04:06.039 --> 02:04:09.039 about these pronouncements from a lot of Christian leaders, saying, well, 1956 02:04:09.079 --> 02:04:11.479 you know, you just got to there's no question about 1957 02:04:11.720 --> 02:04:13.199 you know, you can't vote for her, so you got 1958 02:04:13.199 --> 02:04:15.600 to vote for him. That type of thing. And one 1959 02:04:15.640 --> 02:04:18.039 guy has stood out and he has caught a lot 1960 02:04:18.079 --> 02:04:20.279 of grief, and he said this because you got the 1961 02:04:20.319 --> 02:04:24.000 lesser two evils. He said, the presidential electure results. Having 1962 02:04:24.039 --> 02:04:26.640 delivered us from one evil, God now tests us with 1963 02:04:26.760 --> 02:04:30.279 another right. And I thought that was pretty good. He's 1964 02:04:30.319 --> 02:04:32.800 testing you to see, because the price of liberty is 1965 02:04:32.840 --> 02:04:35.359 eternal vigilance. And the key thing about Trump is that 1966 02:04:35.399 --> 02:04:37.600 he puts people to sleep and he puts a pacifire 1967 02:04:37.640 --> 02:04:41.079 in their mouth. Everybody and this club is afraid to 1968 02:04:41.119 --> 02:04:43.119 speak out. Just like if you were at a drag 1969 02:04:43.239 --> 02:04:47.000 queen festival, you don't want to point out that the 1970 02:04:47.239 --> 02:04:49.119 lady up on stage or the man up on stage 1971 02:04:49.159 --> 02:04:51.520 isn't wearing any clothes, right, because then everybody's going to 1972 02:04:51.600 --> 02:04:53.640 hop on you. You don't want to point out that the 1973 02:04:53.920 --> 02:04:56.640 Emperor is engaging in naked tyranny if you're part of 1974 02:04:56.640 --> 02:04:58.560 the Maga cult, because then they're all going to hop 1975 02:04:58.560 --> 02:04:59.840 on you as well. 1976 02:05:00.000 --> 02:05:02.159 Absolutely, a lot of people are rightly, in my view, 1977 02:05:02.239 --> 02:05:05.479 concerned with regard to what might happen visa the Israel 1978 02:05:05.640 --> 02:05:08.039 and what's going on there, and you know, I share 1979 02:05:08.079 --> 02:05:10.680 that concern. But another concern that I have, I think 1980 02:05:10.760 --> 02:05:12.720 is more subtle, or at least it hasn't been commented 1981 02:05:12.720 --> 02:05:15.039 on very much that I'm aware of. You know, one 1982 02:05:15.039 --> 02:05:17.760 of the planks I think that got Trump elected was 1983 02:05:17.960 --> 02:05:19.840 that he's going to promise to do something about this 1984 02:05:20.000 --> 02:05:24.039 flood of illegal aliens migrants into the country. Well, what 1985 02:05:24.159 --> 02:05:26.520 exactly is he going to do and what are people 1986 02:05:26.560 --> 02:05:29.159 going to be willing to accept, particularly on you know, 1987 02:05:29.239 --> 02:05:31.760 so to speak, our side of the fence, what if 1988 02:05:31.760 --> 02:05:35.319 he institutes a regime of your papers please, you know, 1989 02:05:36.399 --> 02:05:39.359 on us, you know, and of course our side largely 1990 02:05:39.399 --> 02:05:41.560 I think would probably go along with that, because after all, 1991 02:05:41.600 --> 02:05:43.399 we got to get it under control, you know, we 1992 02:05:43.479 --> 02:05:45.960 got to catch all these illegal aliens and do something 1993 02:05:46.000 --> 02:05:48.119 about them. But what may end up happening is something 1994 02:05:48.199 --> 02:05:50.720 is done to us, and I'm very much concerned about that. 1995 02:05:50.920 --> 02:05:52.640 Oh I agree as well. We were just talking about 1996 02:05:52.680 --> 02:05:54.800 that earlier. Had a listener who pointed that out, and 1997 02:05:54.840 --> 02:05:57.840 I said, yeah, that's right. The immigration and several of 1998 02:05:57.840 --> 02:06:00.720 these voters, voter fraud and that type of But it'll 1999 02:06:00.720 --> 02:06:02.399 also be you know, a lot of people will jump 2000 02:06:02.479 --> 02:06:05.279 on and say, well, you know, we got porn being 2001 02:06:05.279 --> 02:06:06.720 given to kids, so we need to have an ID 2002 02:06:06.840 --> 02:06:08.319 to get on the internet and all this other kind 2003 02:06:08.319 --> 02:06:11.600 of stuff. Right, because they're already saying in Australia that 2004 02:06:11.640 --> 02:06:14.920 you can't use social media. They're introducing a bill so 2005 02:06:14.960 --> 02:06:17.319 you can't use social media if you're not sixteen years old. 2006 02:06:17.359 --> 02:06:19.159 How they going to know that? Well, that means that 2007 02:06:19.159 --> 02:06:22.199 everybody's got a register, right that's obviously the situation. So 2008 02:06:22.520 --> 02:06:24.880 if you want government to fix everything like that, you're 2009 02:06:24.880 --> 02:06:27.760 going to have to give it total to solitary and power. 2010 02:06:27.800 --> 02:06:29.439 And that is a very dangerous thing. And I've played 2011 02:06:29.439 --> 02:06:31.960 the clip of Trump thing We're going to stop them 2012 02:06:31.960 --> 02:06:34.039 by the air, by the land, by the sea, you know, 2013 02:06:34.079 --> 02:06:36.479 and all the rest of this stuff. The technocracy would 2014 02:06:36.520 --> 02:06:40.039 love to do this with IDs, digital IDs. And as 2015 02:06:40.039 --> 02:06:45.560 you point out, your identity papers please right. The hallmark 2016 02:06:45.720 --> 02:06:49.119 of an occupied to tolitarian government is to have to 2017 02:06:49.159 --> 02:06:52.159 have identity papers to go everywhere, including internally. 2018 02:06:52.920 --> 02:06:54.840 I don't think Trump is a stupid man. I think 2019 02:06:54.840 --> 02:06:56.880 it's silly to suggest that he's stupid. But I do 2020 02:06:56.920 --> 02:07:01.039 think that he can be thoughtless and reactionary and very 2021 02:07:01.119 --> 02:07:03.640 delibs sometimes in terms of the things that he advocates, 2022 02:07:04.039 --> 02:07:06.039 uh you know, the classic who want example of that 2023 02:07:06.119 --> 02:07:08.840 might be uh, you know, due process later, take the 2024 02:07:08.880 --> 02:07:12.720 guns now, things like that, instead of stopping for a 2025 02:07:12.720 --> 02:07:14.840 little bit to think about it before he shoots off 2026 02:07:14.840 --> 02:07:18.359 at the mouth or acts. And I wish that he 2027 02:07:18.479 --> 02:07:21.600 were a little bit more reflective than thoughtful. But we'll see, 2028 02:07:21.680 --> 02:07:23.880 you know, the die has been cast. As Caesar said before, 2029 02:07:23.880 --> 02:07:27.640 he lost the rubicon. Uh, and it's now essentially a fate, 2030 02:07:27.640 --> 02:07:30.199 a complete We're going to see what he does, and 2031 02:07:30.279 --> 02:07:31.520 it's going to get very interesting. 2032 02:07:31.560 --> 02:07:35.159 I think I think we crossed rubicon four years ago. Well, 2033 02:07:35.199 --> 02:07:38.359 true enough, that wasn't a rubicon. I don't know what is, but. 2034 02:07:38.600 --> 02:07:40.680 You know, this is this is you know, And people 2035 02:07:40.920 --> 02:07:43.239 use the word consequential perhaps too often, but I do 2036 02:07:43.279 --> 02:07:46.960 think this is a consequential election in that if he 2037 02:07:47.000 --> 02:07:49.159 does not do anything, I don't think it's going to 2038 02:07:49.199 --> 02:07:52.720 wear will So He's probably going to do something. And 2039 02:07:52.760 --> 02:07:55.319 then the question becomes, Okay, exactly what and how is 2040 02:07:55.359 --> 02:07:59.199 that going to affect America and Americans? You know, and 2041 02:07:59.239 --> 02:08:01.319 it may affect a man and Americans in a very 2042 02:08:01.359 --> 02:08:05.600 negative manner that they're right now completely blisfully unaware of 2043 02:08:05.640 --> 02:08:07.439 as a bask in the orange globe. 2044 02:08:07.560 --> 02:08:10.920 Yeah, that's right. Well, I fully expect him to really 2045 02:08:11.279 --> 02:08:15.159 energize the base and see them go absolutely crazy if 2046 02:08:15.159 --> 02:08:18.600 he de escalates or ends this Ukraine war. Right, this 2047 02:08:18.640 --> 02:08:21.000 is wearing on. Everybody is sick of that as well, 2048 02:08:21.119 --> 02:08:24.760 sick of the money. Every Zelensky has become this comic 2049 02:08:24.840 --> 02:08:27.880 little clown that's grifting everybody so you know, he could 2050 02:08:28.039 --> 02:08:29.960 end that, but I think at the same time what 2051 02:08:30.039 --> 02:08:33.159 he would do is escalate the war with Iran because 2052 02:08:33.159 --> 02:08:34.880 you've got Lindsay Graham and all these other people, and 2053 02:08:34.920 --> 02:08:36.880 Lindsey Graham was saying, yeah, they got this man, I 2054 02:08:36.920 --> 02:08:39.119 forget what he was. It's like they got seventeen trillion 2055 02:08:39.119 --> 02:08:44.000 dollars worth of resources and Ukraine. We don't want Russia 2056 02:08:44.039 --> 02:08:45.720 getting all that. We want it for ourselves, you know, 2057 02:08:45.760 --> 02:08:48.880 I mean this is like neocolonialism. It's crazy, and he's 2058 02:08:48.920 --> 02:08:50.079 actually saying this kind of. 2059 02:08:50.760 --> 02:08:54.359 It's apocalyptic and dangerous. He probably this goes back a 2060 02:08:54.399 --> 02:08:56.159 few weeks before the election to Scott Riber, you know, 2061 02:08:56.359 --> 02:09:00.199 the UN the Inspector of Weapons of Mass Destruction, because 2062 02:09:00.239 --> 02:09:03.399 a very incredible person published an interesting article about what 2063 02:09:03.439 --> 02:09:06.399 appears to have been an underground nuclear test in Iraq. 2064 02:09:06.840 --> 02:09:09.319 You know, there was seismic evidence that something happened out 2065 02:09:09.319 --> 02:09:12.000 there that wasn't an earthquake. It's not yet been verified, 2066 02:09:12.039 --> 02:09:15.399 but the possibility that they have acquired a nuclear weapons 2067 02:09:15.399 --> 02:09:17.960 capability is something that really ought to be thought about. 2068 02:09:18.359 --> 02:09:21.239 You know, if if Trump decides to lob bombs on them, 2069 02:09:21.319 --> 02:09:24.000 they might swamp back a different kind of bomb and 2070 02:09:24.079 --> 02:09:27.000 start something altogether horrible. You know, they could be absolutely 2071 02:09:27.039 --> 02:09:30.560 cataclus them for all of us. And I pray that 2072 02:09:31.119 --> 02:09:33.760 saner commer heads prevailed over this thing. 2073 02:09:34.279 --> 02:09:37.079 Well, I think that, you know, certainly they would have 2074 02:09:37.119 --> 02:09:39.760 to do something asymmetric. They would not be able to 2075 02:09:39.880 --> 02:09:42.399 launch a trans continental ballistic at the United States and 2076 02:09:42.479 --> 02:09:45.800 hit US. What they would wind up doing maybe smuggling something, 2077 02:09:46.880 --> 02:09:48.960 you know, across the open border. And then that would 2078 02:09:49.000 --> 02:09:52.119 be the excuse to clamp everything down. And now everybody 2079 02:09:52.199 --> 02:09:55.920 is clamoring for complete biometric control and IDA and all 2080 02:09:55.920 --> 02:09:57.359 that because we don't want to have another one of 2081 02:09:57.399 --> 02:10:00.159 these attacks. So yeah, I think something like that that 2082 02:10:00.760 --> 02:10:03.960 easily could happen. But you know, you talk about how 2083 02:10:04.079 --> 02:10:06.840 Trump can change. Earlier in the program, as I was 2084 02:10:06.840 --> 02:10:08.920 talking about Elon Musk, and of course I said, you're 2085 02:10:08.920 --> 02:10:10.479 going to be coming on. I said, the first time 2086 02:10:10.520 --> 02:10:12.319 I talked to you, we talked about Elon Musk is 2087 02:10:12.319 --> 02:10:14.359 the King of crony capitalism. That was your article at 2088 02:10:14.399 --> 02:10:16.439 the time. Now I guess he's going to be the 2089 02:10:16.479 --> 02:10:21.199 president of crony capitalism. And it's just amazing to me 2090 02:10:21.359 --> 02:10:23.439 to see this guy who's become the world's richest man 2091 02:10:24.159 --> 02:10:28.560 put out as somebody who is going to make government 2092 02:10:28.840 --> 02:10:32.119 eliminate government waste. He is government waste. 2093 02:10:32.359 --> 02:10:35.000 I wonder whether Trump, now that Elon Musk is apparently 2094 02:10:35.039 --> 02:10:38.239 his best friend, is going to do anything to end 2095 02:10:38.479 --> 02:10:41.239 this pushing of the electric vehicles that have made Elon 2096 02:10:41.319 --> 02:10:45.399 Musco billionaire. Most people outside of the business don't understand that. 2097 02:10:45.479 --> 02:10:48.199 The reason the Muscus of billionaires because he's managed to 2098 02:10:48.279 --> 02:10:53.640 leverage these zero emissions requirements and these carbon credits into 2099 02:10:53.680 --> 02:10:57.359 this vast empire that's funded his electric car drift. Now, 2100 02:10:57.680 --> 02:10:59.399 you know one thing I would like to see Trump do, 2101 02:10:59.520 --> 02:11:02.119 and I hope that he does do this is tackles 2102 02:11:02.159 --> 02:11:06.439 the issue of the permanent bureaucracy, the regulatory state, which 2103 02:11:06.479 --> 02:11:09.319 is serving now as a de facto legislature. You know, 2104 02:11:09.359 --> 02:11:11.960 they'll issue a regulation and the regulation has to be 2105 02:11:12.000 --> 02:11:14.840 complied with, so it has the force of law, and 2106 02:11:14.920 --> 02:11:18.479 yet it's not a law, and it's not constitutional. The 2107 02:11:18.520 --> 02:11:22.800 Constitution says that Congress must write the laws. Congress has 2108 02:11:22.840 --> 02:11:26.039 abrogated that and has given it over to this unelected 2109 02:11:26.079 --> 02:11:28.960 regulatory apparat for a number of reasons. One they're lazy, 2110 02:11:29.319 --> 02:11:31.800 but two I think more importantly, they do not want 2111 02:11:31.800 --> 02:11:34.319 to be held accountable. Now Congressmen can say, well, it's 2112 02:11:34.319 --> 02:11:36.720 not my fault, it's the bureaucracy. You know, the reason 2113 02:11:36.760 --> 02:11:38.479 that you you know, you have to spend a fortune 2114 02:11:38.479 --> 02:11:40.760 to get your homes air condition to replaced. Now it's 2115 02:11:40.800 --> 02:11:42.479 not because of me. You know, these bureaucracts did it, 2116 02:11:42.520 --> 02:11:44.880 These all whole bureaucrats. And of course you can't vote 2117 02:11:44.880 --> 02:11:47.439 the bureaucrats out, so they're utterly unaccountable once they get 2118 02:11:47.439 --> 02:11:50.640 in there. So, you know, Trump has a constitutional argument, 2119 02:11:50.680 --> 02:11:53.319 first of all, and he even has a juridical one 2120 02:11:53.319 --> 02:11:55.720 in regard to the Chevron decision, which says that, you know, 2121 02:11:55.800 --> 02:11:59.239 the Supreme Court ruled that these these bureaucrats can't just 2122 02:11:59.239 --> 02:12:02.439 summarily issue decrees like that that have the force of law. 2123 02:12:02.760 --> 02:12:07.800 And then there's just the war argument is wrong. Why 2124 02:12:07.800 --> 02:12:10.640 do they get to one more shot over our lives? 2125 02:12:10.920 --> 02:12:13.439 So I hope he'll do that. Unfortunately, I don't think 2126 02:12:13.479 --> 02:12:15.399 he'll do that. Everything that he has said thus far 2127 02:12:15.439 --> 02:12:18.600 indicates that he's not so much opposed to regulations, he's 2128 02:12:18.680 --> 02:12:21.600 just opposed to the way the regulations have been used 2129 02:12:21.640 --> 02:12:24.119 by the other side. So in that sense he's sort 2130 02:12:24.159 --> 02:12:26.479 of a typical Republican and that he's not opposed to 2131 02:12:26.520 --> 02:12:28.720 big government. He just wants big government to be used 2132 02:12:28.720 --> 02:12:30.760 in the way that he'd like the government to be used. 2133 02:12:30.920 --> 02:12:33.239 Oh, I agree, I agree. And you know, if we 2134 02:12:33.279 --> 02:12:34.720 go back and we look, and I've talked about this 2135 02:12:34.800 --> 02:12:37.640 many times, you get civil asset forfeiture for example, right, 2136 02:12:37.960 --> 02:12:40.359 people have their property stolen, as you well know, you know, 2137 02:12:40.439 --> 02:12:42.800 in the name of the war on drugs, they steal 2138 02:12:42.880 --> 02:12:47.520 people's property. They call it asset forfeiture, a theft. And 2139 02:12:47.920 --> 02:12:50.840 they don't find you guilty. First, they don't even charge 2140 02:12:50.840 --> 02:12:53.000 you with the crime. They charge the property with the crime. 2141 02:12:53.039 --> 02:12:56.479 So it's the US government versus nine thousand dollars cash, 2142 02:12:56.560 --> 02:12:59.319 or the US government versus lear Jet serial numbers such 2143 02:12:59.359 --> 02:13:02.479 and such. And they say that they don't have to 2144 02:13:02.600 --> 02:13:06.920 follow the Constitution because they say that rules are different 2145 02:13:07.880 --> 02:13:10.439 they and so they not only have to find they 2146 02:13:10.439 --> 02:13:12.319 don't have to find you guilty. You don't have a 2147 02:13:12.319 --> 02:13:15.000 presumption of innocence. They don't have to have an indictment, 2148 02:13:15.119 --> 02:13:18.439 a trial, a finding of guilt. And they are also 2149 02:13:18.640 --> 02:13:23.279 not required to obey the prohibition against excessive fines and 2150 02:13:23.319 --> 02:13:25.720 punishment because they say it's a rule, not a law. 2151 02:13:26.119 --> 02:13:28.159 So if it was done by Congress, it would be 2152 02:13:28.199 --> 02:13:30.079 a law and they'd have to follow the Constitution. But 2153 02:13:30.199 --> 02:13:32.640 if they create this as a rule, none of the 2154 02:13:32.680 --> 02:13:36.039 Constitution applies. That's one of the most amazing things. And 2155 02:13:37.399 --> 02:13:40.399 both Republicans and Democrats go along with it because you 2156 02:13:40.439 --> 02:13:43.319 point out if things go wrong, they don't want the 2157 02:13:43.359 --> 02:13:46.520 responsibility for it, and they can always if things go wrong, 2158 02:13:46.560 --> 02:13:49.439 they can always blame it on that regulatory agency, and 2159 02:13:49.479 --> 02:13:51.800 they can come in and rescue everybody and look like 2160 02:13:51.840 --> 02:13:54.600 the good guys by putting the regulatory agency back in 2161 02:13:54.680 --> 02:13:58.880 its place. And so that allows the implausible deniability from 2162 02:13:58.880 --> 02:14:02.159 all this stuff. They love to abdicate their authority over 2163 02:14:02.199 --> 02:14:03.880 to it. And I'll give you an example of Trump 2164 02:14:03.960 --> 02:14:07.039 doing this in his first term. The Dreamer thing, right, 2165 02:14:07.840 --> 02:14:12.079 the idea that you had daka the Deferred Action on 2166 02:14:12.439 --> 02:14:17.520 Childhood rivals. That was an executive order from the Obama administration. 2167 02:14:17.560 --> 02:14:20.520 It wasn't a law coming from Congress, and so they 2168 02:14:20.600 --> 02:14:22.680 just put this thing out as an executive order. Now 2169 02:14:22.760 --> 02:14:26.720 Trump comes along and he says, well, I'm going to 2170 02:14:26.840 --> 02:14:28.479 change that. I'm going to get rid of that but 2171 02:14:28.680 --> 02:14:31.720 I've got to ask permission from the Supreme Court to 2172 02:14:31.760 --> 02:14:33.720 do that. It's like, how do you have to ask 2173 02:14:33.760 --> 02:14:37.680 them permission? As for an executive order from the previous president? 2174 02:14:37.720 --> 02:14:39.560 You can just do it. But he played that game 2175 02:14:39.600 --> 02:14:41.800 and then the Supreme Court came back and said, no, 2176 02:14:41.840 --> 02:14:43.239 you can't do it, and so he said, oh, okay, 2177 02:14:43.279 --> 02:14:45.720 I can't do it. And so it allows these guys 2178 02:14:45.760 --> 02:14:49.720 to escape from their campaign promises and all the rest 2179 02:14:49.720 --> 02:14:55.680 of this stuff. And that whole regulatory rule regime is awful. 2180 02:14:55.720 --> 02:14:57.680 And we saw it in spades when all the pandemic 2181 02:14:57.760 --> 02:15:00.640 stuff came, didn't we re see. 2182 02:15:00.479 --> 02:15:03.600 As it is tyrannical. They call it an administrative procedure 2183 02:15:03.600 --> 02:15:05.239 and it goes all the way down in a number 2184 02:15:05.279 --> 02:15:07.920 of states to traffic infractions. It used to be that 2185 02:15:08.000 --> 02:15:09.520 you'd actually have a day in court, you know, if 2186 02:15:09.520 --> 02:15:12.279 a cop pulls you over for something, speeding, whatever it 2187 02:15:12.359 --> 02:15:15.720 might be, you had a legal right to your day 2188 02:15:15.760 --> 02:15:17.800 in court and to present your case to a judge 2189 02:15:17.840 --> 02:15:20.960 and even a jury if you wanted to. In some cases, well, 2190 02:15:21.000 --> 02:15:22.920 what they did was to make it into an administrative 2191 02:15:23.000 --> 02:15:25.720 matter and in some cases handed over into a private 2192 02:15:25.760 --> 02:15:29.119 company to deal with and you had the only thing 2193 02:15:29.159 --> 02:15:31.520 that you were allowed to do was to submit in writing, 2194 02:15:31.600 --> 02:15:34.640 not in person. You know, your your supposed explanation and 2195 02:15:34.840 --> 02:15:37.279 or excuse or defense or whatever it was. And that 2196 02:15:37.359 --> 02:15:39.760 was totally performa. You know, you're going to pay regardless, 2197 02:15:40.000 --> 02:15:41.359 you know, and if you didn't pay, then they'd go 2198 02:15:41.399 --> 02:15:44.119 after you with the credit card credit bureaus then slam 2199 02:15:44.119 --> 02:15:45.640 your credit you know, if you didn't, if you didn't 2200 02:15:45.640 --> 02:15:48.600 hand over the money. And it's a really solid thing, 2201 02:15:48.600 --> 02:15:51.359 and it's just sort of leached out and pervaded the 2202 02:15:51.439 --> 02:15:55.600 whole system. And I do think the one positive thing 2203 02:15:55.680 --> 02:15:57.960 I think we can we can take away from this election, 2204 02:15:58.079 --> 02:16:00.720 I do think there is an awakening going on. I 2205 02:16:00.720 --> 02:16:02.960 think by and large, a lot of people are beginning 2206 02:16:03.000 --> 02:16:07.479 to realize the maliciousness that just saturates the system now 2207 02:16:07.800 --> 02:16:09.600 and how the deck is stacked. And granted, you know 2208 02:16:09.640 --> 02:16:12.720 that Trumps has leveraged and used that, but that doesn't 2209 02:16:12.760 --> 02:16:15.359 mean it's not real, and that doesn't mean that it 2210 02:16:15.439 --> 02:16:17.520 is going to be sated by non action. I think 2211 02:16:17.560 --> 02:16:20.319 people are going to demand that things get better, and 2212 02:16:20.720 --> 02:16:22.920 that is something that makes me feel good about the 2213 02:16:22.960 --> 02:16:23.800 election results. 2214 02:16:24.239 --> 02:16:26.640 Well, I think you know, when you're talking about the 2215 02:16:26.680 --> 02:16:28.840 red light cameras and speed cameras and things like that, 2216 02:16:28.880 --> 02:16:31.560 where you've got a corporation that is accusing you of 2217 02:16:31.560 --> 02:16:34.399 something and you don't have a right to confront your accuser. 2218 02:16:34.600 --> 02:16:37.680 Sometimes that's been overturned in Texas, and I don't know 2219 02:16:37.719 --> 02:16:39.360 how it is in Virginia. I don't know how it 2220 02:16:39.399 --> 02:16:41.680 is in Tennessee either. But in Texas, it was in 2221 02:16:41.680 --> 02:16:45.040 the state constitution that if you got a speeding ticket, 2222 02:16:45.079 --> 02:16:48.360 you could demand a jury trial. And I used that 2223 02:16:48.520 --> 02:16:51.239 demand for a couple of tickets that I got in 2224 02:16:51.319 --> 02:16:56.200 Texas to basically negotiate away the ticket and you know, 2225 02:16:56.239 --> 02:16:58.680 to make it disappear, and because they don't want to 2226 02:16:58.680 --> 02:17:01.000 do a jury trial. So it's a great negotiating tool. 2227 02:17:01.559 --> 02:17:03.319 I didn't absolutely I didn't have the time where I 2228 02:17:03.319 --> 02:17:05.399 could go do it. You know, I'm going to travel 2229 02:17:05.440 --> 02:17:09.760 to some speed trapped town in East Texas and fight 2230 02:17:09.799 --> 02:17:12.120 this thing in a small hit. But I hung tough 2231 02:17:12.159 --> 02:17:15.239 on it and made the thing go away. But that's 2232 02:17:15.280 --> 02:17:16.840 the key thing, and you can put that in. My 2233 02:17:16.879 --> 02:17:18.799 point is is that you can put that in at 2234 02:17:18.799 --> 02:17:21.719 the state level, local level things like that to stop 2235 02:17:21.760 --> 02:17:24.840 red light cameras, to stop speed cameras, to have a 2236 02:17:24.959 --> 02:17:26.799 day in court. Those are the types of things that 2237 02:17:26.840 --> 02:17:29.399 you can do at the local level that Trump isn't 2238 02:17:29.399 --> 02:17:31.639 necessarily going to do anything for you or the Congress. 2239 02:17:31.840 --> 02:17:34.559 We need to start redirecting. I think everybody's focused back 2240 02:17:34.600 --> 02:17:37.600 to the local level. I think that's where it's really important. 2241 02:17:37.680 --> 02:17:39.440 Well, I agree, but at the same time, there is 2242 02:17:39.520 --> 02:17:42.920 absolutely now a mandate, and it's not just Trump's. It 2243 02:17:43.000 --> 02:17:45.879 operates in the House and the Senate. The Republicans have 2244 02:17:45.920 --> 02:17:48.479 been handed this victory, and I think one of the 2245 02:17:48.520 --> 02:17:50.959 things that they will hold their feet to the fire too, 2246 02:17:51.239 --> 02:17:54.120 with regard to these regulations and the regulatory operatus and 2247 02:17:54.200 --> 02:17:56.280 going forward, if we're going to even have to have 2248 02:17:56.399 --> 02:17:58.920 these things, that they be subjected to a cost benefit 2249 02:17:59.000 --> 02:18:04.159 analysis with public ears before they are an accident imposed 2250 02:18:04.200 --> 02:18:06.799 on people, so you don't have some bureaucrat in the 2251 02:18:06.840 --> 02:18:10.399 EPA or the DOT which just summarily decreased something that's 2252 02:18:10.440 --> 02:18:12.559 going to end up costing everybody who buys a car 2253 02:18:12.760 --> 02:18:14.840 another five hundred bucks up front and god knows how 2254 02:18:14.879 --> 02:18:17.280 much money down the road when the thing feels beyond 2255 02:18:17.360 --> 02:18:22.639 the basis of some speculative hypothesized gain. That is literally 2256 02:18:22.879 --> 02:18:25.600 like contemplating how many angels can dance on the head 2257 02:18:25.600 --> 02:18:27.639 of a pin. You've got to show that there's going 2258 02:18:27.719 --> 02:18:31.559 to be a meaningful and justifiable benefit before that regulation 2259 02:18:31.799 --> 02:18:34.920 is imposed on people. I think that's an extremely reasonable 2260 02:18:34.920 --> 02:18:36.079 and fair position to take. 2261 02:18:36.360 --> 02:18:38.879 Oh, I agree. I think the problem that we face 2262 02:18:39.120 --> 02:18:42.879 you and I is that there's not any corresponding organization 2263 02:18:43.000 --> 02:18:45.600 for cars like there is for guns right. You've got 2264 02:18:45.600 --> 02:18:47.520 the NRA, You've got Gun Owners of America, and a 2265 02:18:47.559 --> 02:18:50.280 lot of others National Association for Gun Right. There's several 2266 02:18:50.319 --> 02:18:53.319 of them that are out there, and they're all focused 2267 02:18:53.360 --> 02:18:55.239 on a single issue. And you can say the same 2268 02:18:55.239 --> 02:18:58.040 thing about the pro life issue or whatever. And there's 2269 02:18:58.079 --> 02:19:00.440 other ones that are out there as well. Could look 2270 02:19:00.479 --> 02:19:03.120 at on the left side, you could look at marijuana 2271 02:19:03.159 --> 02:19:05.719 prohibition stuff normal and a bunch of others who are 2272 02:19:05.719 --> 02:19:09.680 successful and nullifying the un I've talked about this this week. 2273 02:19:09.719 --> 02:19:11.840 You know, even though you had you had in three 2274 02:19:11.879 --> 02:19:16.959 conservative states Florida, North and South Dakota, you had an 2275 02:19:17.000 --> 02:19:20.959 issue on the ballot to legalize recreational use of marijuana, 2276 02:19:21.120 --> 02:19:26.559 not just medical marijuana, because medical marijuana is now nullified 2277 02:19:26.879 --> 02:19:29.559 by two thirds of the states, actually more than that, 2278 02:19:29.840 --> 02:19:32.319 and so if that had passed in those states, you 2279 02:19:32.319 --> 02:19:34.520 would have had more than half of the states, would 2280 02:19:34.520 --> 02:19:37.920 have nullified even recreational use of marijuana. And yet according 2281 02:19:38.000 --> 02:19:41.040 to the War on Drugs, it is a Schedule one drug. 2282 02:19:41.360 --> 02:19:43.840 My point being is that if we do things at 2283 02:19:43.879 --> 02:19:47.200 the state level, we can nullify this tyranny. And if 2284 02:19:47.239 --> 02:19:49.079 we start to and I think really the only way 2285 02:19:49.079 --> 02:19:51.559 that we ever make any traction is if we've got 2286 02:19:51.559 --> 02:19:55.200 an organization that is a single issue organization that's going 2287 02:19:55.239 --> 02:19:58.120 to push on that single issue. Because the politicians are 2288 02:19:58.159 --> 02:20:02.360 this grocery cart full of garbage, and some of the 2289 02:20:02.399 --> 02:20:03.920 stuff in there is good, and some of the stuff 2290 02:20:03.920 --> 02:20:05.920 in there is bad. Most of it's bad, but you 2291 02:20:05.959 --> 02:20:10.079 can't really get anything done. Instead, if you focus on 2292 02:20:10.399 --> 02:20:13.360 a local on a specific issue, and you attack it 2293 02:20:13.399 --> 02:20:15.399 at the state level, that's what we're missing. Maybe that's 2294 02:20:15.440 --> 02:20:20.120 what you should do. You should start an organization is 2295 02:20:20.120 --> 02:20:21.760 going to fight against car regulations. 2296 02:20:21.920 --> 02:20:25.399 Well, actually, there is such an organization. It already exists. Yeah, 2297 02:20:25.399 --> 02:20:28.120 and I'm affiliated with it. It's the National Motorist Association. 2298 02:20:28.440 --> 02:20:31.159 Yes, I've interviewed them. It's been a while, but yeah, 2299 02:20:31.239 --> 02:20:33.319 and I think they advertise on your. 2300 02:20:34.520 --> 02:20:36.559 And a lot of people are not aware of the 2301 02:20:36.600 --> 02:20:39.559 existence of the NME, but the NIME played a critical 2302 02:20:39.639 --> 02:20:43.239 role back in the nineties and securing the repeal of 2303 02:20:43.280 --> 02:20:47.520 what was called the NMSL, the National Maximum Speed Limit 2304 02:20:47.559 --> 02:20:50.120 Law which played the country for twenty years from seventy 2305 02:20:50.120 --> 02:20:52.840 four up to about ninety four, which required a fifty 2306 02:20:52.879 --> 02:20:54.959 five mile an hour speed limit on the highways. You 2307 02:20:55.000 --> 02:20:56.760 remember it, I remember it. You know, a lot of 2308 02:20:56.760 --> 02:20:57.360 people were. 2309 02:20:57.319 --> 02:20:59.959 A Republican president. 2310 02:21:00.399 --> 02:21:03.079 It was absolutely miserable and made driving anywhere to such 2311 02:21:03.120 --> 02:21:05.959 a hassle and an expense. You know, millions of people 2312 02:21:06.280 --> 02:21:09.280 molted of millions of dollars for driving its seeds that 2313 02:21:09.319 --> 02:21:13.520 were legal and so presumably safe before drive fifty five 2314 02:21:13.639 --> 02:21:18.360 came along. Anyway, Animation did the omens work lobbying Congress, 2315 02:21:18.680 --> 02:21:20.399 you know, I was involved in that when I was 2316 02:21:20.399 --> 02:21:23.399 at the Washington Times back in the nineties to get 2317 02:21:23.479 --> 02:21:26.680 rid of the NMSL, And they are really a fantastic 2318 02:21:26.799 --> 02:21:32.440 organization lobbying specifically on these issues that affect motorists driving. 2319 02:21:32.959 --> 02:21:34.559 Your freedom to buy the kind of car that you 2320 02:21:34.639 --> 02:21:37.040 want and so on. So if people are interested in that, 2321 02:21:37.239 --> 02:21:40.360 I recommend they check out the site. It's motorists dot Org. 2322 02:21:41.680 --> 02:21:44.319 Good people. I've known them personally, I've worked with them 2323 02:21:44.319 --> 02:21:45.159 for thirty years. 2324 02:21:45.319 --> 02:21:47.760 Good. Yes, And that is the key thing. You have 2325 02:21:47.840 --> 02:21:52.520 to have those kinds of single issue organizations. And for 2326 02:21:52.520 --> 02:21:54.559 the most part, most of these things have to be 2327 02:21:54.600 --> 02:21:57.319 done at the local level. You know, for example, the 2328 02:21:57.319 --> 02:21:59.840 fifty five on hour speed limit that could have been 2329 02:22:00.120 --> 02:22:03.079 nullified at the local love it's good to repeal it nationally. Okay, 2330 02:22:03.120 --> 02:22:05.159 I'm not saying that's not bad thing, but I'm saying 2331 02:22:05.159 --> 02:22:07.479 that individual states could have refused to do that, they 2332 02:22:07.479 --> 02:22:10.959 would have lost highway funds. They were being blackmailed by money. 2333 02:22:11.159 --> 02:22:13.000 And that's what we've got to get people to understand 2334 02:22:13.120 --> 02:22:16.879 is how the federal government gets around the Constitution, gets 2335 02:22:16.920 --> 02:22:20.440 around the tenth Amendment, specifically by handing out money. That's 2336 02:22:20.440 --> 02:22:23.840 what people can't understand about what Trump did in twenty twenty. 2337 02:22:24.000 --> 02:22:26.239 But it's the same thing that Nixon did with a 2338 02:22:26.280 --> 02:22:28.680 fifty five million hour speed limit. If you do this 2339 02:22:28.719 --> 02:22:31.479 fifty five million hour speed limit, I'll give you money. 2340 02:22:31.479 --> 02:22:34.120 And so everybody gets upset with the state government or 2341 02:22:34.159 --> 02:22:36.719 the local law enforcement or the highway patrol or whatever 2342 02:22:36.719 --> 02:22:40.719 who's enforcing it. But it's also being driven by federal money. 2343 02:22:41.120 --> 02:22:43.840 Well, it's even worse than that, because first they extract 2344 02:22:43.840 --> 02:22:47.600 the money from the seats. Yeah, they take the money, 2345 02:22:47.680 --> 02:22:49.680 and then then they say, well, the Fed sig well 2346 02:22:49.760 --> 02:22:51.920 we'll give you some of it back, you know, provided 2347 02:22:52.079 --> 02:22:53.680 provide did you do what we want you to do? 2348 02:22:54.360 --> 02:22:54.559 You know? 2349 02:22:54.799 --> 02:22:56.520 And it really it's paralyzing. So I think you're might 2350 02:22:56.680 --> 02:22:59.559 have to go one step farther back and somehow perhaps 2351 02:22:59.600 --> 02:23:02.159 just stop getting the money. You know, that day has 2352 02:23:02.159 --> 02:23:04.319 got to come. We've got to stand up to that 2353 02:23:04.719 --> 02:23:07.760 and resurrect the principle if it's not yours, you don't 2354 02:23:07.760 --> 02:23:09.479 have a right to it from the individual all the 2355 02:23:09.520 --> 02:23:12.440 way on up. You know, as Tom Soull was set, 2356 02:23:12.559 --> 02:23:15.520 boy exactly, is a fair share of somebody else's money 2357 02:23:15.520 --> 02:23:16.600 that you didn't work for. 2358 02:23:17.799 --> 02:23:20.280 That's absolutely right. Yeah. Well, it's kind of interesting when 2359 02:23:20.319 --> 02:23:23.319 we look at Musk. He's going to be able to 2360 02:23:23.600 --> 02:23:27.040 exert the kind of control that all these different industries 2361 02:23:27.200 --> 02:23:29.559 dream of, and yet he doesn't even have to take 2362 02:23:29.559 --> 02:23:34.639 a cabinet position with Trump. He can stay as CEO. 2363 02:23:35.079 --> 02:23:38.559 Earlier in the program, eric I talked about the fact 2364 02:23:38.559 --> 02:23:41.479 that the two of them were throwing shade at each 2365 02:23:41.520 --> 02:23:47.879 other earlier this year, or Trump was talking about EV's 2366 02:23:48.120 --> 02:23:51.280 and Biden and about Tesla and everything in a derogatory way. 2367 02:23:52.040 --> 02:23:54.879 Musk was saying that Trump just needs to, you know, 2368 02:23:54.959 --> 02:23:56.719 put on a cowboy hat or whatever and right off 2369 02:23:56.719 --> 02:24:01.479 into the sunset. But then when Musk started, Musk perceptively 2370 02:24:01.520 --> 02:24:05.000 realized that everything was turning in Trump's direction, and it 2371 02:24:05.040 --> 02:24:08.280 started channeling money to him. Then it became a love fest. 2372 02:24:09.040 --> 02:24:12.920 In August, Trump said, well, I have to like evs 2373 02:24:13.000 --> 02:24:15.200 because Elon gave me a lot of money. I mean, 2374 02:24:15.200 --> 02:24:17.840 he just says that, he says the quiet part out loud. 2375 02:24:18.559 --> 02:24:21.280 Yeah, you know, it's interesting about Musk. You're absolutely right. 2376 02:24:21.319 --> 02:24:24.440 He's cunning, he knows where he's first lie, and I 2377 02:24:24.440 --> 02:24:26.639 think it's important to judge him according to actions and 2378 02:24:26.639 --> 02:24:29.200 not what he says. And I'll give you two specific examples, 2379 02:24:29.280 --> 02:24:31.239 one of which I know you're aware of. You know, 2380 02:24:31.280 --> 02:24:34.600 at first, when when the thug government in Brazil ordered 2381 02:24:34.639 --> 02:24:39.360 him to suppress the posts of some politicians and people 2382 02:24:39.360 --> 02:24:42.079 in the in the country that the ruling junta did 2383 02:24:42.120 --> 02:24:46.719 not like. Initially, Elon publicly opposed that. But when he 2384 02:24:46.760 --> 02:24:49.719 counted the shakles and realized he was potentially going to 2385 02:24:49.760 --> 02:24:51.719 lose a lot of money if the thugs in Brazil 2386 02:24:51.799 --> 02:24:54.719 shut down X in Brazil, he counts out and caved. 2387 02:24:55.200 --> 02:24:57.159 So if he counts out and caved to the thugs 2388 02:24:57.159 --> 02:24:59.600 in Brazil, what makes anybody think that he's not going 2389 02:24:59.639 --> 02:25:01.959 to do this here and he already is as you know, 2390 02:25:02.000 --> 02:25:06.920 and I know X suppresses speech by suppressing reach, you know, 2391 02:25:07.000 --> 02:25:10.600 unless unless you pay musk an ongoing fee to be 2392 02:25:10.879 --> 02:25:13.920 verified each and every month. And in addition to that, 2393 02:25:14.000 --> 02:25:17.319 don't post anything long thankful your post is sent of 2394 02:25:17.360 --> 02:25:19.639 the timeout room. It's very clever, you know. It's not 2395 02:25:19.760 --> 02:25:22.120 that you can't post. Sure you can post. The problem 2396 02:25:22.159 --> 02:25:25.079 is half the time nobody sees what she posted, right, 2397 02:25:25.200 --> 02:25:27.200 which has the same effect as that. 2398 02:25:27.600 --> 02:25:29.399 Didn't even change anything for me when I paid the 2399 02:25:29.399 --> 02:25:32.200 eight bucks. You know, it's it's like it's it's still 2400 02:25:32.559 --> 02:25:35.000 I'm not I'm not saying the stuff that he wants 2401 02:25:35.000 --> 02:25:38.239 to hear. But you're absolutely right. He literally bowed and 2402 02:25:38.319 --> 02:25:42.479 scraped to Theory Breton, the guy from the EU, saying, well, 2403 02:25:42.479 --> 02:25:44.280 we got this ds A thing that's going to come 2404 02:25:44.319 --> 02:25:46.639 in here, and you're going to have to obey that, right, Oh, yes, yes, 2405 02:25:46.680 --> 02:25:50.280 I'll do that, Yes, yes. And then what happened was 2406 02:25:50.600 --> 02:25:56.360 that Theory Breton, I call him conspiracy theory, conspiracy theory, 2407 02:25:57.079 --> 02:26:03.399 tried to censor speech out within the election and in America, 2408 02:26:03.920 --> 02:26:05.879 and that was a bridge too far for him. He 2409 02:26:05.959 --> 02:26:08.079 jumped the shark at that point and they kicked him out. 2410 02:26:08.120 --> 02:26:12.120 But it wasn't like Elon Musk resisted this. And yet 2411 02:26:12.159 --> 02:26:15.399 what you see is all these all these people who 2412 02:26:15.479 --> 02:26:19.079 it's the same people who support Trump that support Musk. 2413 02:26:19.559 --> 02:26:24.159 So if any governor goes to Davos, like Brian Kemp 2414 02:26:24.360 --> 02:26:28.639 or like Glenn Youngkin or whatever or anybody else, they 2415 02:26:28.719 --> 02:26:31.799 rightfully or suspicious of that. And ye know, when Trump 2416 02:26:31.840 --> 02:26:33.239 goes there and he does it just a couple of 2417 02:26:33.239 --> 02:26:38.280 weeks before he locks the world down, they're not. They 2418 02:26:38.280 --> 02:26:40.200 make excuses for it, and they talk about how look 2419 02:26:40.239 --> 02:26:43.920 it he told them told them off, and he told them, 2420 02:26:43.920 --> 02:26:45.879 you know that we're not going to be a part 2421 02:26:45.879 --> 02:26:47.719 of this, and he stood up to these people. And 2422 02:26:47.760 --> 02:26:49.639 so they see the same thing as you point out. 2423 02:26:49.920 --> 02:26:53.200 They they trumpet the fact that Musk is there pushing 2424 02:26:53.239 --> 02:26:57.200 back against Brazil. But then all of the conservative and 2425 02:26:57.280 --> 02:27:00.239 alternative media is silent when he caves into them and 2426 02:27:00.319 --> 02:27:01.600 does exactly one. 2427 02:27:01.520 --> 02:27:04.959 This bizarre wheeling around, and it occurs on both sides 2428 02:27:05.079 --> 02:27:08.000 of the same point. You know, You've got if he 2429 02:27:08.040 --> 02:27:10.360 went back what a year or two ago, Musk was 2430 02:27:10.399 --> 02:27:12.239 the hero of the left, he was the darling of 2431 02:27:12.319 --> 02:27:14.479 the left, you know, and then when he started to 2432 02:27:14.639 --> 02:27:16.520 kind of come around to the Trumpian point of view, 2433 02:27:16.639 --> 02:27:19.319 all of a sudden, the left hates him and now 2434 02:27:19.360 --> 02:27:21.760 the right loves him, and nothing is really to change. 2435 02:27:21.799 --> 02:27:24.559 He's the same guy and he's playing them both, you know, 2436 02:27:24.600 --> 02:27:27.280 and it just as sounds me that people on both 2437 02:27:27.319 --> 02:27:28.239 sides don't see that. 2438 02:27:28.600 --> 02:27:32.159 Yes, oh yeah, absolutely true. Let's talk a little bit 2439 02:27:32.159 --> 02:27:36.920 about well, you mentioned the internal passport regime. That's one 2440 02:27:36.959 --> 02:27:40.319 of the things that we're very concerned about. And I 2441 02:27:40.479 --> 02:27:44.920 really liked what you just put up yesterday. Don't deport, 2442 02:27:45.680 --> 02:27:47.920 defund and tell people about that. 2443 02:27:48.520 --> 02:27:50.719 Yeah. Essentially, you know, there are all these calls now 2444 02:27:50.719 --> 02:27:52.360 that Trump has been elected, Okay, we're going to have 2445 02:27:52.399 --> 02:27:54.799 these deportations. We're going to round up all these people 2446 02:27:54.840 --> 02:27:57.319 who came into the country illegally, which has a very 2447 02:27:57.680 --> 02:28:02.399 strong superficial appeal. Because so many people are so tired citizens. 2448 02:28:02.440 --> 02:28:05.040 I mean of having to pay taxes that go to 2449 02:28:05.239 --> 02:28:08.760 finance things like hotel rooms in New York City and 2450 02:28:09.239 --> 02:28:11.440 debit cards that are filled up with thousands of dollars 2451 02:28:11.479 --> 02:28:12.959 of the money that they had to work for. People 2452 02:28:13.000 --> 02:28:17.680 are understandably outraged about that. So clearly something does have 2453 02:28:17.719 --> 02:28:20.440 to be done. But I think the most effective thing 2454 02:28:20.479 --> 02:28:22.040 that could be done to deal with the problem of 2455 02:28:22.079 --> 02:28:24.280 the people who are already here, as well as the 2456 02:28:24.280 --> 02:28:27.120 people who might come here, is simply to make it 2457 02:28:27.200 --> 02:28:31.399 unlawful for any public official to dispense or disburse any 2458 02:28:31.440 --> 02:28:34.680 public money, any taxpayer money that will go to benefit 2459 02:28:34.959 --> 02:28:38.159 anybody who isn't an American citizen. It's entirely reasonable. 2460 02:28:38.280 --> 02:28:39.239 You know, if I. 2461 02:28:39.200 --> 02:28:41.440 Travel to Mexico, I don't have a right to the 2462 02:28:41.440 --> 02:28:45.799 benefits that are afforded to Mexican citizens because I'm not Mexican. 2463 02:28:46.760 --> 02:28:49.200 You know, in the system, I'm not supposed to be 2464 02:28:49.239 --> 02:28:49.840 in that country. 2465 02:28:50.319 --> 02:28:52.079 I agree. I've said for the longest time, I said, 2466 02:28:52.120 --> 02:28:55.200 the issue is the welfare magnet, and we've got such 2467 02:28:55.319 --> 02:28:59.920 a big magnet that we're pulling people around the wall, 2468 02:29:00.079 --> 02:29:02.120 over the wall, under the wall, through the wall, if 2469 02:29:02.120 --> 02:29:03.879 you've got a big enough welfare magnet, you're going to 2470 02:29:03.920 --> 02:29:05.360 get people to come in. And they're going to do it. 2471 02:29:05.399 --> 02:29:07.440 Even if you set up some kind of a slave 2472 02:29:07.559 --> 02:29:10.520 ID system that you know Trump has talked about doing, 2473 02:29:10.840 --> 02:29:12.959 even if you set up some kind of a horrendous 2474 02:29:13.360 --> 02:29:16.760 internal biometric ID system, You're still going to get people 2475 02:29:16.760 --> 02:29:20.520 to come in if the financial rewards are enough. And 2476 02:29:20.559 --> 02:29:24.079 these financial rewards are unbelievable. We have provided for these 2477 02:29:24.120 --> 02:29:26.479 people in poor countries. This is the pot of gold 2478 02:29:26.520 --> 02:29:29.239 at the end of the rainbow. And if we don't 2479 02:29:29.280 --> 02:29:32.079 stop that, that's the essence of it. And that's the 2480 02:29:32.120 --> 02:29:34.280 one thing that they could stop very easily, but they 2481 02:29:34.319 --> 02:29:36.719 won't do it. I absolutely agree with you. Defund it. 2482 02:29:37.280 --> 02:29:39.200 You don't have to worry about deporting these people. Just 2483 02:29:39.239 --> 02:29:39.840 defund it. 2484 02:29:40.360 --> 02:29:42.680 And well, there's a humane aspect of it too. I think, 2485 02:29:42.719 --> 02:29:45.319 you know, if you say, look, if you're willing to work, 2486 02:29:45.479 --> 02:29:48.639 and you're willing to provide for your family and meet 2487 02:29:48.680 --> 02:29:50.319 your needs and so on, I don't really have an 2488 02:29:50.319 --> 02:29:53.159 issue with that myself, because why I would if somebody 2489 02:29:53.159 --> 02:29:55.559 wants to get up on a roof and hammer shingles 2490 02:29:55.559 --> 02:29:58.840 all day long and earn money. That's cool. I'm okay 2491 02:29:58.879 --> 02:30:02.639 with that. That's a a positive contribution to our society. 2492 02:30:03.280 --> 02:30:05.440 You know, I don't. I don't have any desire to 2493 02:30:05.559 --> 02:30:08.239 have a guy who's up on the roof putting shingles down, 2494 02:30:08.639 --> 02:30:12.440 rounded up and thrown back across the border. So you know, 2495 02:30:12.680 --> 02:30:13.079 you can. 2496 02:30:13.159 --> 02:30:17.399 Put into some detention camp or something concentration, can the optics. 2497 02:30:17.719 --> 02:30:20.280 I don't think you'll ever do that because I think 2498 02:30:20.319 --> 02:30:23.520 the optics on it are so bad, and in his 2499 02:30:23.639 --> 02:30:25.840 second term, I think he's going to want to be 2500 02:30:25.920 --> 02:30:28.600 remembered in a in a fond and positive way. So 2501 02:30:28.600 --> 02:30:30.440 I don't think they will do that. But also don't 2502 02:30:30.440 --> 02:30:32.479 think that they'll stop the welfare stuff either, And that 2503 02:30:32.479 --> 02:30:34.559 would be the obvious thing as you point out people 2504 02:30:34.559 --> 02:30:38.239 who want to come across and work hard workers. I'm 2505 02:30:38.280 --> 02:30:41.719 fine with that. Yeah, there's competition with people who are 2506 02:30:41.719 --> 02:30:44.799 here and depressing wages. But you know, maybe what you 2507 02:30:44.840 --> 02:30:47.399 do is something else. Maybe you organize, maybe you learn 2508 02:30:47.440 --> 02:30:49.559 Spanish and you organize these people and you've got your 2509 02:30:49.600 --> 02:30:51.760 company and you know whatever. There's a lot of different 2510 02:30:51.760 --> 02:30:54.239 ways that we could go with that. But you know, 2511 02:30:55.000 --> 02:30:57.360 as long as they're working, I don't have that much 2512 02:30:57.360 --> 02:30:59.840 of a problem with it as But when I have 2513 02:30:59.879 --> 02:31:02.000 a problem with is the welfare thing. If you're pointing 2514 02:31:02.040 --> 02:31:04.440 out it's bad enough to take money from a citizen 2515 02:31:04.440 --> 02:31:05.959 and give it to another one, but it's even worse 2516 02:31:05.959 --> 02:31:07.600 when you give it to somebody's not a citizen. 2517 02:31:07.840 --> 02:31:08.280 Yeah, I mean. 2518 02:31:08.280 --> 02:31:11.639 Interestingly, you know, Trump made great intros with Hispanic people 2519 02:31:11.639 --> 02:31:14.440 in the selection. Yeah, citizens, I mean, because they also 2520 02:31:14.559 --> 02:31:15.360 are tired of this. 2521 02:31:15.600 --> 02:31:16.079 Yes, you know. 2522 02:31:16.159 --> 02:31:19.360 So it's it's not about being mean to people, which 2523 02:31:19.399 --> 02:31:21.840 is the way it's framed and portrayed by the left. 2524 02:31:22.040 --> 02:31:25.200 It's about not being mean to Americans, you know, constantly 2525 02:31:25.319 --> 02:31:29.200 saddling them with bills for other people literally limitless number 2526 02:31:29.239 --> 02:31:31.079 of you know, nobody has ever said, okay, we're going 2527 02:31:31.120 --> 02:31:34.319 to have a maximum of let's say, five million people 2528 02:31:34.360 --> 02:31:37.639 coming into the country every year. It's literally limitless, you know, 2529 02:31:37.760 --> 02:31:40.719 according to the open borders people, which is a recipe 2530 02:31:40.719 --> 02:31:43.120 for national suicide. Culturally and economically. 2531 02:31:43.399 --> 02:31:45.319 Oh, I agree. I've said for the longest time that 2532 02:31:45.360 --> 02:31:47.440 we're not going to have an American dream of owning 2533 02:31:47.440 --> 02:31:49.200 a home, which you pretty much don't have now because 2534 02:31:49.239 --> 02:31:52.239 of regulatory costs and everything. I have that as long 2535 02:31:52.319 --> 02:31:56.520 as we've got the dreamers because they can come here 2536 02:31:56.559 --> 02:31:59.040 and get a free education and many other benefits, and 2537 02:31:59.079 --> 02:32:01.799 they will continue to keep coming and it'll be funded 2538 02:32:01.799 --> 02:32:03.479 with property taxes. So you're not going to be able 2539 02:32:03.520 --> 02:32:05.280 to afford a home, or you're not going to be 2540 02:32:05.280 --> 02:32:07.440 able to afford much of a rental place either, because 2541 02:32:07.479 --> 02:32:10.639 the property taxes are embedded in that. People just don't 2542 02:32:10.639 --> 02:32:13.200 seem to think about the real cost of this stuff. 2543 02:32:13.639 --> 02:32:15.920 I would pay money to keep my kids out of 2544 02:32:15.920 --> 02:32:19.040 the government school. Oh yeah, but they got me for 2545 02:32:19.120 --> 02:32:20.319 financial reasons. Yeah. 2546 02:32:20.399 --> 02:32:22.000 That I think is you get to the root of 2547 02:32:22.040 --> 02:32:24.959 it and pull it out of the ground and destroy it. 2548 02:32:25.000 --> 02:32:27.799 And you're right, this whole idea of having government schools. 2549 02:32:28.319 --> 02:32:31.559 Parents ought to be the ones that are responsible directly, 2550 02:32:32.000 --> 02:32:34.120 and that's not a burden. That's a good thing because 2551 02:32:34.120 --> 02:32:37.440 you have control over your kids' education. If you're hiring 2552 02:32:37.479 --> 02:32:40.000 a tutor or a teacher, you're the one who's paying 2553 02:32:40.000 --> 02:32:42.600 the bill. And if you discover that the person that 2554 02:32:42.639 --> 02:32:45.680 you hire to teach your kids is incompetent or in 2555 02:32:45.719 --> 02:32:48.120 any other way somebody that you don't want to be 2556 02:32:48.159 --> 02:32:50.680 teaching your kids, and you can fire them. What happens 2557 02:32:50.680 --> 02:32:52.600 when the kid is in the government school, how much 2558 02:32:52.639 --> 02:32:54.479 power do you have over what your kid is being 2559 02:32:54.520 --> 02:32:57.159 taught and by whom? And the answer is absolutely none. 2560 02:32:57.239 --> 02:32:59.200 You're paying through the nose and property tax and your 2561 02:32:59.239 --> 02:33:00.559 kids aren't even being educated. 2562 02:33:00.719 --> 02:33:02.799 That's right. And in New Jersey they just came up 2563 02:33:02.799 --> 02:33:04.440 with a law that you know, anybody else would go 2564 02:33:04.520 --> 02:33:07.639 to jail. But if you show obscene material to a minor, 2565 02:33:07.799 --> 02:33:10.719 that's fine as long as your teacher, right, don't here's 2566 02:33:10.719 --> 02:33:13.719 some obscene If I hire a tutor and the tutor 2567 02:33:13.799 --> 02:33:18.479 is showing obscene material to my child and saying don't 2568 02:33:18.479 --> 02:33:20.639 tell your parents, that person is going to go to 2569 02:33:20.680 --> 02:33:24.040 jail or worse if you catch them. But you know 2570 02:33:24.079 --> 02:33:26.200 with the government school says okay. That's why I talked 2571 02:33:26.200 --> 02:33:27.879 about this earlier this week. I said, I'm going to 2572 02:33:27.879 --> 02:33:30.079 call them from here on out instead of public schools, 2573 02:33:30.079 --> 02:33:32.360 I'm going to call them pubic schools because it seems 2574 02:33:32.360 --> 02:33:35.520 to be they're interested and they're not interested in reading, writing, 2575 02:33:35.559 --> 02:33:40.680 and arithmetic. They're interested in sexualization of children, and that's 2576 02:33:40.719 --> 02:33:43.040 really what they have focused on. It's insane that we 2577 02:33:43.120 --> 02:33:45.239 have to pay for this as well. 2578 02:33:45.319 --> 02:33:47.559 It's not from their point of view, you know, by 2579 02:33:47.959 --> 02:33:53.120 stupidizing kids, by rendering them cognitive cripples, making them illiterate 2580 02:33:53.159 --> 02:33:57.239 and enumerate, and then also warping them with all of 2581 02:33:57.239 --> 02:33:59.280 the surprise, what do you end up with? Will you 2582 02:33:59.399 --> 02:34:02.879 end up with these preaching, emotionally incontinent, blue haired people 2583 02:34:03.200 --> 02:34:06.040 who are exactly what Leannon referred to when he called 2584 02:34:06.079 --> 02:34:07.399 them useful idiots. 2585 02:34:07.719 --> 02:34:09.600 Yeah, that's right, useful because. 2586 02:34:09.399 --> 02:34:11.559 They are very vulnerable. You know, they're not able to 2587 02:34:11.559 --> 02:34:15.319 think clearly. They feel and they react and they irerupt 2588 02:34:15.319 --> 02:34:18.040 and they stamp their feet, and they're exactly the kind 2589 02:34:18.079 --> 02:34:20.079 of flodder that you need if you want to create 2590 02:34:20.239 --> 02:34:21.840 an authoritarian police. See. 2591 02:34:21.959 --> 02:34:25.000 Yeah, that's right. Yeah. You have a good article about 2592 02:34:25.120 --> 02:34:29.159 the roots of Marxism, the neighborliness of communists, and you've 2593 02:34:29.200 --> 02:34:32.719 got all these different planks of the Karl marks, of 2594 02:34:32.760 --> 02:34:33.920 different goals that he wanted to have. 2595 02:34:34.000 --> 02:34:34.120 You know. 2596 02:34:34.159 --> 02:34:38.639 Of course, one of them was compulsory state education paid 2597 02:34:38.680 --> 02:34:42.200 for by taxes and that type of thing. But all 2598 02:34:42.200 --> 02:34:43.959 these different things that are part of it, that is 2599 02:34:44.120 --> 02:34:48.000 what they have been able to impose upon us. I've 2600 02:34:48.000 --> 02:34:50.559 talked to shi Van Fleet, who grew up in China. 2601 02:34:51.000 --> 02:34:53.360 She knows what a struggle session is she says, all 2602 02:34:53.399 --> 02:34:56.239 of this stuff about being you know, anti racism and 2603 02:34:56.559 --> 02:34:58.399 all the rest of the stuff, she said, that's that's 2604 02:34:58.399 --> 02:35:00.760 just a struggle session with a different name. All this 2605 02:35:00.920 --> 02:35:04.200 woke stuff. It's the same tactics that they've been using 2606 02:35:04.200 --> 02:35:06.399 for the longest time and the same goals that they 2607 02:35:06.440 --> 02:35:07.879 have been using for the longest time. 2608 02:35:08.319 --> 02:35:10.079 Well, they've gotten a little bit more clever though. You know, 2609 02:35:10.079 --> 02:35:12.000 if you read if you read Marx, and even if 2610 02:35:12.040 --> 02:35:16.680 you read Lenin, they were rather honest and open about 2611 02:35:16.680 --> 02:35:18.680 what they intended to do. You know, Lenin spoke of 2612 02:35:18.719 --> 02:35:23.520 imposing terror and using terror to foment his political ends, 2613 02:35:23.799 --> 02:35:25.959 and Marx was very direct. If you read the Communist 2614 02:35:26.000 --> 02:35:29.120 Manifesto and read the planks of the Communist Manifesto, and 2615 02:35:29.159 --> 02:35:31.280 it's appalling to anybody who's not out of their minds 2616 02:35:31.280 --> 02:35:33.280 when they when they hear and read this stuff. So 2617 02:35:33.319 --> 02:35:36.760 they don't generally talk about that stuff anymore. They put 2618 02:35:36.760 --> 02:35:38.920 it in this sort of sitting around the campfire holding 2619 02:35:38.959 --> 02:35:43.559 hands kumbayah kind of language, you know, or neighborly. Waltz 2620 02:35:43.639 --> 02:35:46.479 used that in the campaign. Neighborly, I mean, it's it's 2621 02:35:46.479 --> 02:35:49.319 an inversion of reality, and it's a psychological technique. 2622 02:35:49.440 --> 02:35:49.600 You know. 2623 02:35:49.600 --> 02:35:51.520 They want you to think of it in terms of like, yeah, 2624 02:35:51.559 --> 02:35:53.520 I'm just going to go over to my neighbor's house 2625 02:35:53.840 --> 02:35:56.920 and ask him whether I can borrow something, you know, 2626 02:35:57.159 --> 02:35:59.200 but you're not being asked. You're having a bayonnet shoved 2627 02:35:59.200 --> 02:36:01.200 in your back and being made to hand it over. 2628 02:36:01.479 --> 02:36:01.840 That's right. 2629 02:36:01.879 --> 02:36:03.760 And it's not your neighbor, per se who's doing it. 2630 02:36:03.760 --> 02:36:04.920 It's some government thug. 2631 02:36:05.280 --> 02:36:05.479 You know. 2632 02:36:05.520 --> 02:36:08.879 That's the kind of neighborliness that they that they need. 2633 02:36:09.120 --> 02:36:11.680 And it's so much of this verbiashually. You know, they 2634 02:36:11.680 --> 02:36:14.559 won't just say hand over your money. They'll say, we're 2635 02:36:14.680 --> 02:36:17.520 asking you to pay your fair ship. There's no asking. 2636 02:36:17.799 --> 02:36:20.799 If you can't say no without repercussions, you're not being asked, 2637 02:36:21.120 --> 02:36:21.879 you're being. 2638 02:36:21.639 --> 02:36:24.040 Told that's right, that's right. And that's one of the 2639 02:36:24.120 --> 02:36:26.120 things that we see. You know, you talk about how 2640 02:36:26.399 --> 02:36:30.120 they used to be more upfront about it, and it 2641 02:36:30.159 --> 02:36:33.680 was really Antonio Gramsey, the founder of the Italian Communist Party. 2642 02:36:33.719 --> 02:36:35.280 He said, yeah, we don't want to have a we 2643 02:36:35.399 --> 02:36:37.159 want to be upfront about this. We don't want to 2644 02:36:37.200 --> 02:36:39.239 have a violent revolution. Let's do it by marching through 2645 02:36:39.280 --> 02:36:42.600 the institutions. And that was where Pete Bouotyguay's dad spent 2646 02:36:42.680 --> 02:36:46.879 his entire career as a college professor at Notre Dame, 2647 02:36:47.440 --> 02:36:50.719 studying the life work of Antonio Gramsey in order to 2648 02:36:50.760 --> 02:36:53.840 march through the institutions. And then he sends Pete Boutigue 2649 02:36:54.040 --> 02:36:58.280 to Harvard, where he studied under a guy who loved 2650 02:36:58.280 --> 02:37:01.200 the Italian Communists so much, Saco and Benzetti, that he 2651 02:37:01.319 --> 02:37:04.639 changed his name to Sakvan Berkovich. And everything that he 2652 02:37:04.719 --> 02:37:09.399 wrote was saying America based on the principles of the 2653 02:37:09.440 --> 02:37:13.600 Pilgrims and Puritanism. And that's the problem for all of 2654 02:37:13.639 --> 02:37:16.520 the you know, everything that we have in society is 2655 02:37:16.559 --> 02:37:19.319 all based on that, and we've got to eliminate that. 2656 02:37:19.399 --> 02:37:22.319 And that's really where all of the democrats are coming 2657 02:37:22.319 --> 02:37:25.159 from now, by taking over the institutions very subtly, and 2658 02:37:25.200 --> 02:37:27.239 they have taken them all over. And so that's why 2659 02:37:27.280 --> 02:37:28.920 I think, you know, if we don't realize that the 2660 02:37:28.920 --> 02:37:32.559 institutions have been taken over, like the schools especially that 2661 02:37:32.719 --> 02:37:36.399 is the most obvious case, the schools, the media, entertainment, 2662 02:37:36.520 --> 02:37:38.760 we don't realize that those things have been taken over. 2663 02:37:39.520 --> 02:37:45.000 You know, voting for our president in Washington is completely meaningless. Yeah. 2664 02:37:45.239 --> 02:37:47.879 Yeah, they did it piece by piece, and they begin 2665 02:37:48.000 --> 02:37:51.079 with the government school system, you know, Frank School, going 2666 02:37:51.079 --> 02:37:53.280 all the way back to the twenties and the thirties, 2667 02:37:53.639 --> 02:37:56.399 and infiltrating that had consequences. Is what they did was 2668 02:37:56.440 --> 02:37:58.959 they were able to mold the minds of the next generation. 2669 02:37:59.559 --> 02:38:02.319 And those people ended up going into the corporations and 2670 02:38:02.360 --> 02:38:06.120 into the media and into law, and it propagates. And 2671 02:38:06.159 --> 02:38:08.159 that's why now all of a sudden, we find ourselves 2672 02:38:08.239 --> 02:38:10.840 dealing with a company like, you know, Anheuser Busch, you know, 2673 02:38:11.040 --> 02:38:14.559 having Dylan mulvaney as their mascot. How did that happen? 2674 02:38:14.799 --> 02:38:17.120 Such a thing would have been inconceivable thirty years ago 2675 02:38:17.200 --> 02:38:19.559 because the people who are running a major corporation like that, 2676 02:38:20.319 --> 02:38:22.440 they would have regarded that as sick and alien, you know, 2677 02:38:22.520 --> 02:38:25.239 whatever their greed headed interests, they wouldn't have done that. 2678 02:38:25.520 --> 02:38:28.920 But now this rising generation woke people. You know, I 2679 02:38:28.959 --> 02:38:31.280 disagree with Elon Musk about a lot of things, but 2680 02:38:31.319 --> 02:38:34.520 he refers to this woke mind virus, and he's absolutely correct, 2681 02:38:34.840 --> 02:38:37.239 and it's it's sort of the latest strain or variant 2682 02:38:37.360 --> 02:38:40.600 of Marxism. It's just the same thing repackaged. 2683 02:38:40.879 --> 02:38:42.520 Yeah. Well, of course, the people who are taken out 2684 02:38:42.520 --> 02:38:44.879 of the corporations and everything have been trained in all 2685 02:38:44.920 --> 02:38:48.840 this in the schools, but they're also having a lot 2686 02:38:48.840 --> 02:38:51.200 of economic pressure put on them by Blackrock and these 2687 02:38:51.200 --> 02:38:53.920 other corporations to do that very thing. And if they're 2688 02:38:53.920 --> 02:38:57.239 publicly traded corporations, they have a great deal of leverage 2689 02:38:57.239 --> 02:38:59.559 over them if you do what they you know, if 2690 02:38:59.559 --> 02:39:03.200 they like your company, you can it's basically a license 2691 02:39:03.280 --> 02:39:05.760 to print money. But if they don't like your company, 2692 02:39:05.799 --> 02:39:08.440 they can pretty much drive you out of business. And 2693 02:39:08.479 --> 02:39:12.000 so they're more beholden to the Black Rocks than they 2694 02:39:12.000 --> 02:39:15.760 are to the customers, and so everything is turned upside 2695 02:39:15.799 --> 02:39:16.719 down with this stuff. 2696 02:39:16.959 --> 02:39:20.120 This ESG stuff that almost nobody knew about until about 2697 02:39:20.239 --> 02:39:24.559 Dr Soogo. It is what drove Akio Toyota out of 2698 02:39:24.639 --> 02:39:28.040 the leadership role at Toyota, notwithstanding that he is the 2699 02:39:28.040 --> 02:39:30.840 grandson of the founder of the company, because the people 2700 02:39:30.879 --> 02:39:33.079 on the board reeled that kind of power and that 2701 02:39:33.120 --> 02:39:36.319 they were very interested in pushing this ESG agenda. You know, 2702 02:39:36.399 --> 02:39:38.639 in the case of Toyota, particularly with regard to this 2703 02:39:38.719 --> 02:39:42.319 electric vehicle thing. Akio Toyota was opposed to it. You know, 2704 02:39:42.360 --> 02:39:45.239 he was one of the few big wig people within 2705 02:39:45.239 --> 02:39:47.520 the car business who said, more than a year ago, 2706 02:39:47.760 --> 02:39:50.760 this is a bad idea. This is going to cost 2707 02:39:51.600 --> 02:39:55.200 massive dislocation even bankruptcy across the industry. You know, this 2708 02:39:55.280 --> 02:39:57.479 is not going to work. Well, we shouldn't do this, 2709 02:39:58.040 --> 02:40:00.479 you know. And having the audacity to say that, and 2710 02:40:00.520 --> 02:40:03.079 for not toying line and going along, he was summarily 2711 02:40:03.120 --> 02:40:06.559 removed and they installed a more appliable person in his place. 2712 02:40:07.639 --> 02:40:11.600 And of course Toyota has understood that, you know that 2713 02:40:11.920 --> 02:40:15.040 this is unworkable. It's an unworkable solution, and so they 2714 02:40:15.040 --> 02:40:17.879 put their engineers into oh, let's try something else. It's 2715 02:40:17.959 --> 02:40:20.440 you know, maybe try fuel cells or something. It's like, no, no, 2716 02:40:20.600 --> 02:40:23.920 it's got to be tied to the electric grid, because 2717 02:40:23.959 --> 02:40:25.680 that's going to be our control grid. You know, no 2718 02:40:25.799 --> 02:40:28.600 other solutions are going to be allowed. That's a real tell. 2719 02:40:29.159 --> 02:40:31.040 Just like the vaccine thing was, well, we got a 2720 02:40:31.040 --> 02:40:33.920 problem here, Okay, I'll believe your problem. I believe that 2721 02:40:33.920 --> 02:40:36.319 we've got some kind of mysterious COVID virus out there. 2722 02:40:36.319 --> 02:40:38.440 But how about if we try this or try that no, no, 2723 02:40:38.479 --> 02:40:40.600 you can't try that. You're only going to have this solution, 2724 02:40:40.719 --> 02:40:43.959 and that's it. That's another tell that it's a there's 2725 02:40:44.040 --> 02:40:45.040 not a real problem, you. 2726 02:40:45.040 --> 02:40:47.639 Know, it's it's it's really sad to me, as somebody 2727 02:40:47.680 --> 02:40:50.680 who has a great emotional attachment to cars and loves 2728 02:40:50.680 --> 02:40:54.399 the industry, to see the damage that has been caused, 2729 02:40:54.479 --> 02:40:57.760 particularly to Toyota. You know, Toyota has had, and deservedly so, 2730 02:40:57.920 --> 02:41:02.479 a reputation for building outstanding vehicles for years and outstandingly 2731 02:41:02.559 --> 02:41:05.959 durable and long lived engines for years. That's been shattered. 2732 02:41:06.440 --> 02:41:09.000 Just recently, they had to recall more than one hundred 2733 02:41:09.280 --> 02:41:12.840 thousand of their new turbo hybrid V six engines that 2734 02:41:12.879 --> 02:41:16.280 have replaced the V eight in the Toyota Tundra pickup 2735 02:41:17.159 --> 02:41:19.760 because the thing had a catastrophic problem that resulted in 2736 02:41:19.799 --> 02:41:22.680 catastrophic failure. So can you imagine what that has done 2737 02:41:22.680 --> 02:41:25.879 to Toyota's reputation. Imagine if you bought a brand new, 2738 02:41:25.920 --> 02:41:29.120 sixty thousand dollars Tundra, brand new and within a month 2739 02:41:29.159 --> 02:41:31.360 the engine total failure and you have to have the 2740 02:41:31.399 --> 02:41:34.440 engine replaced. You know, it's egregious. 2741 02:41:34.719 --> 02:41:36.559 Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, And they're. 2742 02:41:36.440 --> 02:41:39.000 Having problems with the new Tacoma. You know, the Tacoma 2743 02:41:39.040 --> 02:41:41.600 was one of the best vehicles in that class of vehicle, 2744 02:41:41.680 --> 02:41:44.639 mid sized pickup truck. They got rid of the V six, 2745 02:41:44.719 --> 02:41:47.559 this bulletproof you know, that's a three hundred thousand mile engine. 2746 02:41:47.600 --> 02:41:49.360 They got rid of it in favor of a turbo 2747 02:41:49.479 --> 02:41:51.920 hybrid four cylinder engine, and they're having all sorts of 2748 02:41:51.959 --> 02:41:52.799 problems with the things. 2749 02:41:52.840 --> 02:41:55.239 Now, yeah, there's. 2750 02:41:55.000 --> 02:41:57.360 The market demand for this. The market didn't say we 2751 02:41:57.399 --> 02:41:59.239 don't want a V six, we don't want to V eight. 2752 02:41:59.440 --> 02:42:04.120 We crave tiny turbocharged four cylinder engines with hybrid systems 2753 02:42:04.120 --> 02:42:07.399 attached to them. There's absolutely nothing driving this other than 2754 02:42:07.680 --> 02:42:11.159 the pressure to comply with the regulatory regime. 2755 02:42:11.479 --> 02:42:13.440 That's right, and this has been building for a very 2756 02:42:13.479 --> 02:42:14.719 long time. You go back and you look at the 2757 02:42:14.719 --> 02:42:20.600 Toyota Highlux. You know, it's legendary. You've got top gear guys. 2758 02:42:20.639 --> 02:42:24.719 You know the Toyota high Lux that they tried everything 2759 02:42:24.760 --> 02:42:27.559 they could to kill it, and they couldn't kill Finally, 2760 02:42:27.600 --> 02:42:29.319 I think they put it in salt water and left 2761 02:42:29.319 --> 02:42:30.719 it or something like that, and then they hung it 2762 02:42:30.760 --> 02:42:33.159 from the ceiling of the of the set there. But 2763 02:42:33.200 --> 02:42:36.559 it was legendary in terms of its ability to keep going. 2764 02:42:36.639 --> 02:42:38.920 But because it had I think it was a diesel 2765 02:42:38.959 --> 02:42:40.760 engine or something like that, they wouldn't let that come 2766 02:42:40.760 --> 02:42:42.559 into the US because of the EPA. 2767 02:42:42.840 --> 02:42:46.079 The EPA, Yes, And now this year twenty twenty four 2768 02:42:46.399 --> 02:42:48.920 or twyter brought out a striped down version of the 2769 02:42:48.959 --> 02:42:52.000 Hilux called the Champ and it has a gas engine 2770 02:42:52.000 --> 02:42:54.360 and it doesn't pollute. Nothing's polluted since the nineties. If 2771 02:42:54.399 --> 02:42:57.360 you want to get into that topic, but you can't 2772 02:42:57.360 --> 02:43:00.399 have it and get so much A highlux costs markets 2773 02:43:00.559 --> 02:43:02.360 coming thirteen thousand bucks to start. 2774 02:43:02.399 --> 02:43:04.280 What's crazy. 2775 02:43:04.639 --> 02:43:06.079 Yeah, I mean if people are interested, I've got a 2776 02:43:06.120 --> 02:43:07.680 couple of articles on the site about that. 2777 02:43:07.799 --> 02:43:08.040 Yeah. 2778 02:43:08.280 --> 02:43:11.719 It's designed to be configurable. It's basically the cab and 2779 02:43:11.760 --> 02:43:14.280 then the back where the bed would be is whatever 2780 02:43:14.319 --> 02:43:16.360 you want it to be. Toyota has to partnered with 2781 02:43:16.399 --> 02:43:18.399 a number of aftermarket suppliers, So if you want to 2782 02:43:18.440 --> 02:43:20.639 make it into a Jitney bus, if you want to 2783 02:43:20.680 --> 02:43:22.440 make it into a food truck, or if you just 2784 02:43:22.479 --> 02:43:24.280 want a conventional bed on the back of it, well 2785 02:43:24.280 --> 02:43:26.360 you can specify what you want. It's got all the 2786 02:43:26.479 --> 02:43:29.559 preteral detachment points. It's modular, so it's designed to be 2787 02:43:29.600 --> 02:43:32.079 able to do all of those different things really easily 2788 02:43:32.319 --> 02:43:34.879 and really inexpensively. The point is it's a thirteen thousand 2789 02:43:34.920 --> 02:43:37.239 dollars truck. You know, you looked at the price of 2790 02:43:37.239 --> 02:43:39.200 a new truck in this century. What we're allowed to buy, 2791 02:43:39.639 --> 02:43:43.040 I mean, the least expensive of them are thirty thousand 2792 02:43:43.079 --> 02:43:43.799 dollars in up. 2793 02:43:44.079 --> 02:43:46.719 Yes. And it's not just the cars, it's the homes, 2794 02:43:46.760 --> 02:43:49.319 it's the appliances, it's everything that we got, and they 2795 02:43:49.319 --> 02:43:52.520 are trying to strangle us with every one of these things. 2796 02:43:52.520 --> 02:43:56.479 I was talking about that Taiwan Semiconductor and Manufacturing Corporation 2797 02:43:56.639 --> 02:44:01.079 TSMC that's got this big thing that they're bringing into Phoenix, 2798 02:44:01.159 --> 02:44:03.479 this big factory town that they're bringing in. One of 2799 02:44:03.520 --> 02:44:06.120 the things they were talking about was the fact that 2800 02:44:06.319 --> 02:44:08.520 housing in the United States is four to five times 2801 02:44:08.600 --> 02:44:11.399 the cost of housing in Taiwan. Why is that they 2802 02:44:11.399 --> 02:44:14.760 don't have nice houses there? Well, actually they do. It's 2803 02:44:14.799 --> 02:44:21.680 just arbitrary, you know, regulations on about everything that raises 2804 02:44:21.719 --> 02:44:24.399 the cost. And they're doing that to everything that we 2805 02:44:24.479 --> 02:44:27.920 have to make us artificially poor, to rob us. 2806 02:44:28.120 --> 02:44:31.639 And they're specifically targeting the rising generation of young people. 2807 02:44:31.639 --> 02:44:33.680 I can't across some situate. It's as sounding. I don't 2808 02:44:33.680 --> 02:44:36.079 know whether you saw this, but guess what the average 2809 02:44:36.120 --> 02:44:38.159 age of a first time home buyer is in the 2810 02:44:38.239 --> 02:44:39.879 United States as of twenty twenty four. 2811 02:44:40.239 --> 02:44:42.600 Oh yeah, I saw that. It was I was fifty 2812 02:44:42.639 --> 02:44:43.600 something or something like that. 2813 02:44:43.719 --> 02:44:44.319 Fifty four. 2814 02:44:44.440 --> 02:44:45.440 Yeah. 2815 02:44:46.360 --> 02:44:48.280 The people who are past the agent which most people 2816 02:44:48.319 --> 02:44:52.319 start raising families, you know, And what are you supposed 2817 02:44:52.319 --> 02:44:54.399 to do if you're twenty four to twenty five, you know, 2818 02:44:54.479 --> 02:44:57.280 and you want to get your first house. It's impossible. 2819 02:44:57.479 --> 02:45:00.319 The average cost of a new single family house I 2820 02:45:00.319 --> 02:45:02.840 think is about four hundred twenty thousand bucks, which means 2821 02:45:02.840 --> 02:45:05.040 you've got to come up with ten percent in cash 2822 02:45:05.040 --> 02:45:07.000 on that. I mean, how many people in their twenties 2823 02:45:07.040 --> 02:45:08.760 are ever going to be able to do that? So 2824 02:45:08.799 --> 02:45:10.159 what they're doing, and I think this is part of 2825 02:45:10.159 --> 02:45:12.079 the maliciousness that I like to talk about. Don't like 2826 02:45:12.120 --> 02:45:14.159 to talk about it, but it's an important thing to 2827 02:45:14.280 --> 02:45:17.760 talk about, is to alienate the young, to antagonize and 2828 02:45:17.840 --> 02:45:20.159 annoy the young, and make them feel that they haven't 2829 02:45:20.159 --> 02:45:22.280 got a shot, they haven't got a chance, there's no 2830 02:45:22.399 --> 02:45:25.159 hope that the government will help you. We've got the answer. 2831 02:45:25.360 --> 02:45:27.600 You know, Harris did this during the campaign. She tried 2832 02:45:27.639 --> 02:45:29.360 to bribe the young people and say, well, we'll give 2833 02:45:29.360 --> 02:45:31.559 you twenty five thousand dollars in assistance, you know, to 2834 02:45:31.559 --> 02:45:34.280 get your to get your first first home. Well, what 2835 02:45:34.319 --> 02:45:36.200 would really help. One thing that would help is getting 2836 02:45:36.239 --> 02:45:38.799 rid of these zoning requirements. You know, in most places 2837 02:45:38.799 --> 02:45:41.000 in this country, you can't put up a modest sized 2838 02:45:41.040 --> 02:45:44.040 single family home anymore that would be affordable to a 2839 02:45:44.079 --> 02:45:46.239 first time buyer. You have to put up some gigantic 2840 02:45:46.319 --> 02:45:49.479 McMansion because the zoning laws specify that the house that 2841 02:45:49.520 --> 02:45:51.719 you put here has to be essentially similar to the 2842 02:45:51.719 --> 02:45:53.239 one that's next door and the one that's on the 2843 02:45:53.239 --> 02:45:55.280 other side. That's why you see all these cooking cutter 2844 02:45:55.360 --> 02:45:57.920 neighborhoods with all essentially the same houses everywhere. 2845 02:45:59.239 --> 02:46:01.600 Yeah, and it goes to the appliances. Look at all 2846 02:46:01.600 --> 02:46:03.239 the appliants that though you got to you can't have 2847 02:46:03.280 --> 02:46:05.040 a gas appliance, so you can't have this or that, 2848 02:46:05.120 --> 02:46:06.959 you've got to have this electric appliance. And we're going 2849 02:46:07.000 --> 02:46:10.520 to dictate h and everything that you can have and 2850 02:46:10.559 --> 02:46:12.959 how it's going to operate and of course, we've seen 2851 02:46:13.000 --> 02:46:15.479 this type of thing as well in the UK. I 2852 02:46:15.520 --> 02:46:17.360 remember a few years ago they were talking about how 2853 02:46:17.440 --> 02:46:21.479 the prices of houses had rapidly grown, gone up very 2854 02:46:21.600 --> 02:46:25.159 quickly in the UK and priced the younger people out 2855 02:46:25.159 --> 02:46:28.200 of the market completely. And now it's come here. And 2856 02:46:28.520 --> 02:46:31.200 what typically happens is they kind of use the UK 2857 02:46:31.319 --> 02:46:34.040 as a test bad and then it goes from the UK, 2858 02:46:34.200 --> 02:46:36.280 goes to California, and then it goes to the rest 2859 02:46:36.319 --> 02:46:38.719 of America. And so that's really kind of what we're 2860 02:46:38.760 --> 02:46:41.040 seeing with a lot of this stuff. Now they've run 2861 02:46:41.079 --> 02:46:44.440 this game, they know how to manipulate it, so we 2862 02:46:44.479 --> 02:46:48.200 can't afford anything. Electricity costs in the UK right now 2863 02:46:48.280 --> 02:46:52.000 are four to five times the cost of electricity in America, 2864 02:46:52.239 --> 02:46:54.239 and we're about to have an explosion. And all that 2865 02:46:54.360 --> 02:46:58.879 is they're going to build these offshore windmill farms off 2866 02:46:59.639 --> 02:47:03.159 the coast of Long Island. They're going to the profits 2867 02:47:03.239 --> 02:47:06.440 that these European companies that are making this wind farm 2868 02:47:06.760 --> 02:47:08.559 are going to make. Their profits are going to be 2869 02:47:08.600 --> 02:47:13.799 somewhere in fifty dollars per megawatt hour whosletsale. Their profit 2870 02:47:13.840 --> 02:47:16.079 is going to be something like fifty dollars. But the 2871 02:47:16.239 --> 02:47:21.040 entire cost today off of the existing power structure is 2872 02:47:21.079 --> 02:47:24.360 in the thirties and so just their profits alone are 2873 02:47:24.399 --> 02:47:26.120 going to be that much. It's going to be four 2874 02:47:26.200 --> 02:47:29.319 or five times the cost of what people on Long 2875 02:47:29.360 --> 02:47:31.719 Island are paying right now for electricity, if not more. 2876 02:47:32.000 --> 02:47:34.159 And so this is the way that they are. You know, 2877 02:47:34.280 --> 02:47:35.959 we're going to require that you do this. And by 2878 02:47:35.959 --> 02:47:41.280 the way, speaking of California, you just put up an 2879 02:47:41.399 --> 02:47:44.559 article about helmet laws. But did you see and I 2880 02:47:44.559 --> 02:47:46.040 want to talk about that, but did you see that 2881 02:47:47.159 --> 02:47:50.920 Newsom has now put up a requirement for electric bikes. 2882 02:47:50.959 --> 02:47:53.000 They're going to have to have like fifty percent by 2883 02:47:53.120 --> 02:47:56.959 twenty thirty or something like that. Cycle. Yeah, yeah, motorcycles. Yeah, 2884 02:47:56.959 --> 02:47:59.040 they're going to have to have electric motorcycles. And it's 2885 02:47:59.040 --> 02:48:01.000 going to be like fifty percent by such and such 2886 02:48:01.040 --> 02:48:03.200 a date, and then after that it's going to be 2887 02:48:03.639 --> 02:48:06.719 eventually it's going to be one hundred percent electric motorcycles. 2888 02:48:07.680 --> 02:48:11.079 That will get absolutely nowhere. And the reason for that 2889 02:48:11.200 --> 02:48:13.239 is it's one thing to try to push that on 2890 02:48:13.399 --> 02:48:15.920 car buyers because a lot of car buyers are they 2891 02:48:16.000 --> 02:48:18.200 view the car as a necessary appliance, you know, they're 2892 02:48:18.239 --> 02:48:20.879 not necessarily enthusiast people like you and I are who 2893 02:48:21.000 --> 02:48:23.920 have an emotional attachment to driving into cars. They just 2894 02:48:23.959 --> 02:48:25.799 want to get from A to B. So you might 2895 02:48:25.840 --> 02:48:28.399 be able, assuming costs in an issue, to persuade them 2896 02:48:28.440 --> 02:48:31.760 to drive an electric car. Maybe people who ride motorcycles, 2897 02:48:31.799 --> 02:48:35.159 and I'm one, want to ride a motorcycle. They don't 2898 02:48:35.200 --> 02:48:37.639 want to ride something that looks like a motorcycle that 2899 02:48:37.760 --> 02:48:40.479 isn't one, you know, And that's what we're talking about here, 2900 02:48:40.760 --> 02:48:42.559 something that doesn't have an engine, that doesn't have a 2901 02:48:42.559 --> 02:48:45.040 transmission because it's electric, you know, it's just a direct drive, 2902 02:48:45.399 --> 02:48:47.719 so you don't check anything. Just sit on this thing. 2903 02:48:47.760 --> 02:48:50.200 It's a scooter. It's a fast scooter, but that's what 2904 02:48:50.239 --> 02:48:50.879 a scooter is. 2905 02:48:51.159 --> 02:48:52.000 Yeah, it's not. 2906 02:48:51.920 --> 02:48:53.120 Going to work. They're not going to be able to 2907 02:48:53.120 --> 02:48:55.120 sell that to people. Now, they can try to legislate 2908 02:48:55.440 --> 02:48:57.799 old motorcycles off the road, and I have no doubt 2909 02:48:57.840 --> 02:49:00.600 they're going to try to do that probably, and they 2910 02:49:00.600 --> 02:49:02.639 will do the same with cars, but they're never going 2911 02:49:02.680 --> 02:49:05.079 to succeed. It's going to put companies like Harley Davidson 2912 02:49:05.120 --> 02:49:07.360 out of business, and Harley Davidson is already almost out 2913 02:49:07.399 --> 02:49:10.959 of business, precisely because they've got this German CEO who's 2914 02:49:10.959 --> 02:49:14.559 a big time woke DEI guy and who has completely 2915 02:49:14.600 --> 02:49:17.440 alienated people from most people from wanting to buy Harley 2916 02:49:17.479 --> 02:49:18.479 Davidson motorcycle. 2917 02:49:18.639 --> 02:49:23.680 Mm hmmmm yeah, oh yeah, absolutely. Talk about the helmet laws, well, Ben, 2918 02:49:23.719 --> 02:49:27.319 because that's been You've got an article that says why 2919 02:49:27.360 --> 02:49:29.200 helmet laws are silly and tyrannical. 2920 02:49:30.079 --> 02:49:32.440 Well, they're silly in the first place because they're arbitrary. 2921 02:49:33.000 --> 02:49:35.440 You know, we're told I'm told that I have to 2922 02:49:35.479 --> 02:49:37.680 wear a helmet in order to be able to legally 2923 02:49:37.760 --> 02:49:41.239 ride my motorcycle. But I'm able to wear flip flops, 2924 02:49:41.319 --> 02:49:43.159 I'm able to wear shorts and a T shirt if 2925 02:49:43.200 --> 02:49:45.200 I want to, so I guess my head will look 2926 02:49:45.200 --> 02:49:47.120 good in my coffin. I mean, if their argument is 2927 02:49:47.159 --> 02:49:50.159 that you know that the thing is about safety, well 2928 02:49:50.200 --> 02:49:52.520 it doesn't make any sense. That's not really a rational 2929 02:49:52.559 --> 02:49:55.799 position to take. And as far as the tyrannical stuff, 2930 02:49:55.840 --> 02:49:58.600 I think it sort of explains itself. It's nobody else's 2931 02:49:58.639 --> 02:50:01.680 business what risks I choose to assume. Of course, the 2932 02:50:01.719 --> 02:50:04.159 predicate is this socialist argument that, well, if you get 2933 02:50:04.159 --> 02:50:07.440 into an accident, society will be made to pay the costs. 2934 02:50:07.559 --> 02:50:09.879 But that presumes that society. You know, that we have 2935 02:50:09.959 --> 02:50:13.079 this socialist system in which what I choose to do 2936 02:50:13.200 --> 02:50:16.680 somehow imposes an obligation on you and other people to 2937 02:50:16.719 --> 02:50:19.319 be responsible for it. And that's outrageous. You know, if 2938 02:50:19.319 --> 02:50:21.479 I choose to ride a motorcycle and flip flops in 2939 02:50:21.520 --> 02:50:24.239 a short and shorts and without a helmet and I wreck, 2940 02:50:24.280 --> 02:50:26.799 well that's on me, you know, morally, and it should 2941 02:50:26.840 --> 02:50:30.040 be legally nobody else's responsibility that I do those things, 2942 02:50:30.079 --> 02:50:31.479 just the same as Look, I choose to go to 2943 02:50:31.520 --> 02:50:33.600 the gym and work out and run because you know, 2944 02:50:33.799 --> 02:50:35.479 I want to try to keep myself in good shape 2945 02:50:35.520 --> 02:50:38.000 and not die prematurely. But I don't think people who 2946 02:50:38.079 --> 02:50:42.040 are overweight and who don't exercise should be fined. I mean, 2947 02:50:42.079 --> 02:50:43.680 we want to have cops walking down the street and 2948 02:50:43.719 --> 02:50:46.159 if they notice you've got a big gut, they roll 2949 02:50:46.520 --> 02:50:48.000 up to you and give you a ticket for, you know, 2950 02:50:48.120 --> 02:50:50.959 posing costs on society. You can make exactly the same argument. 2951 02:50:51.479 --> 02:50:54.280 It could happen. You know, they've got religious police in 2952 02:50:54.280 --> 02:50:57.479 Saudi Arabia and Iran, so we could have obesity police. 2953 02:50:57.760 --> 02:50:59.959 Why not there'd be a source of revenue for that. 2954 02:51:00.399 --> 02:51:03.040 You know, you point out if you question why we 2955 02:51:03.079 --> 02:51:06.040 should have to have a license, ask yourself why George 2956 02:51:06.079 --> 02:51:08.440 Washington did not need a license to operate his horse 2957 02:51:08.520 --> 02:51:13.239 on the public right away? And so yeah, exactly that. 2958 02:51:13.600 --> 02:51:16.239 You know, there's another there's another argument that is interesting. 2959 02:51:16.280 --> 02:51:18.479 And again I speak as somebody who's been riding for decades, 2960 02:51:18.559 --> 02:51:20.200 so I feel I have some standing to say this, 2961 02:51:20.920 --> 02:51:22.719 and you know, down and I when we go out riding, 2962 02:51:22.719 --> 02:51:25.319 oftentimes we do this, we do a freedom right and 2963 02:51:25.319 --> 02:51:28.600 we take our helmets off on the back roads. And 2964 02:51:28.799 --> 02:51:31.559 I am always amazed by how much my peripheral vision 2965 02:51:31.760 --> 02:51:34.799 increases when I don't have the stupid helmet on. When 2966 02:51:34.840 --> 02:51:36.680 I have helmet on, i'm sort of blinkered. I can 2967 02:51:36.719 --> 02:51:38.639 see what's ahead of me, but in order to see 2968 02:51:38.680 --> 02:51:40.879 what's on either side of me, I have to rotate 2969 02:51:40.920 --> 02:51:42.559 my head left right in order to be able to 2970 02:51:42.559 --> 02:51:44.559 see it. Whereas I can look straight ahead and have 2971 02:51:44.600 --> 02:51:47.520 a panoramic view of the road ahead. Also, I can 2972 02:51:47.559 --> 02:51:50.600 hear things much better because my ears aren't stuffed up 2973 02:51:50.600 --> 02:51:53.920 by the helmet. And finally, unless you spend a lot 2974 02:51:53.959 --> 02:51:58.079 of money on an extremely expensive, lightweight helmet. You know, 2975 02:51:58.120 --> 02:52:01.319 your typical moderately priced which will cost about one hundred 2976 02:52:01.319 --> 02:52:03.399 and fifty bucks or so. You wear that thing for 2977 02:52:03.399 --> 02:52:05.399 an hour and your neck will start to hurt, because, 2978 02:52:05.520 --> 02:52:07.479 believe it or not, that slight amount of weight that 2979 02:52:07.600 --> 02:52:10.159 you have added to your head strings your neck. And 2980 02:52:10.200 --> 02:52:12.520 when your neck is strained and your shoulders are stiff, 2981 02:52:13.079 --> 02:52:15.840 you're not in as good a position to be a 2982 02:52:15.959 --> 02:52:19.280 competent and safe rider because that's distracted as you would 2983 02:52:19.319 --> 02:52:21.559 be if you were in full command of all your senses. 2984 02:52:21.799 --> 02:52:24.520 So you can make a very persuasive argument in my 2985 02:52:24.639 --> 02:52:28.520 view that the actual effect of helmets is less safe 2986 02:52:28.559 --> 02:52:31.239 than the hypothetical benefit of wearing the helmet. 2987 02:52:31.360 --> 02:52:36.040 That's right. And I've known people have motorcycle riders. I'm 2988 02:52:36.079 --> 02:52:39.559 not a motorcycle rider myself, but who said that some 2989 02:52:39.600 --> 02:52:41.879 of these helmets they can add weight and if you 2990 02:52:41.920 --> 02:52:44.120 don't have something to keep it from going quick and 2991 02:52:44.159 --> 02:52:46.319 snap your neck, if you get into a bad accent 2992 02:52:46.399 --> 02:52:49.159 to it can increase the chances of that happening. Yeah. 2993 02:52:49.239 --> 02:52:50.360 Sure, And you know, at the end of the day, 2994 02:52:50.399 --> 02:52:52.319 the thing I guess I object to the most is 2995 02:52:51.959 --> 02:52:57.280 this obnoxious busy body condescending parents of adults. You know, 2996 02:52:57.399 --> 02:52:59.840 I'm a grown man. I can make my own decisions. 2997 02:53:00.079 --> 02:53:03.079 I don't need somebody else trying to hold my hand 2998 02:53:03.200 --> 02:53:05.159 like a good little boy or a bad little boy 2999 02:53:05.440 --> 02:53:07.200 and telling you what I'm allowed to do and what 3000 02:53:07.239 --> 02:53:09.079 I'm not allowed to do. We should be living in 3001 02:53:09.079 --> 02:53:11.920 a free country where adults are free to make cost 3002 02:53:11.959 --> 02:53:16.399 benefit choices, risk reward analysis and be held accountable for 3003 02:53:16.479 --> 02:53:19.559 that absolutely, but be left free to make those decisions 3004 02:53:19.559 --> 02:53:20.200 for themselves. 3005 02:53:20.520 --> 02:53:22.239 Well yeah, and we also had all the people out 3006 02:53:22.280 --> 02:53:25.319 there demanding masks, and remember what they said, and I 3007 02:53:25.479 --> 02:53:28.079 just like, are you kidding me? That's your argument? Said, well, 3008 02:53:28.120 --> 02:53:29.600 we can tell you to wear a mask because we 3009 02:53:29.639 --> 02:53:31.440 tell you to wear seat belts. Let me tell you 3010 02:53:31.479 --> 02:53:33.840 to wear motorcycle helmets and all the rest of the stuff. 3011 02:53:33.840 --> 02:53:36.719 And I said, oh, okay, So my seat belt protects you, 3012 02:53:37.319 --> 02:53:40.360 my helmet protects you, and that's why I have to 3013 02:53:40.399 --> 02:53:42.600 wear it. What claim do you have on that? And 3014 02:53:42.639 --> 02:53:46.760 of course my mask doesn't protect you either. If you've 3015 02:53:46.799 --> 02:53:50.239 been told that, you've believed a lie here. But that 3016 02:53:50.399 --> 02:53:53.159 was the kind of insanity. It's like, well can and 3017 02:53:53.200 --> 02:53:55.000 it didn't have anything to do with whether any of 3018 02:53:55.040 --> 02:53:57.600 the stuff was safe or affected. They just had to do. Well, 3019 02:53:57.639 --> 02:53:59.200 I've got the authority to tell you that you've got 3020 02:53:59.239 --> 02:54:00.840 to wear a helmet. I've got the authority to tell 3021 02:54:00.840 --> 02:54:02.000 you got to wear a seat belt, so I can 3022 02:54:02.040 --> 02:54:03.280 tell you that you got to wear a mask. 3023 02:54:04.319 --> 02:54:06.680 But you know, they actually did have a point, and 3024 02:54:06.719 --> 02:54:09.840 that if you accept the idea of the principle that 3025 02:54:09.959 --> 02:54:12.159 it's legitimate for the government to tell you that you 3026 02:54:12.280 --> 02:54:13.799 have to have a car with a seatbelt and then 3027 02:54:13.840 --> 02:54:16.440 you have to wear a seatbelt, well doesn't everything else follow? 3028 02:54:16.920 --> 02:54:19.520 You know that it has to be rejected at the root. 3029 02:54:19.879 --> 02:54:22.639 You know, it's not the government's business to tell you 3030 02:54:22.719 --> 02:54:24.559 that you have to buy a car with a seatbelt 3031 02:54:24.639 --> 02:54:27.040 or wear one, and if you go down that road, 3032 02:54:27.040 --> 02:54:29.200 then well, yeah, the government doesn't have any business telling 3033 02:54:29.200 --> 02:54:31.399 you you have to wear a mask or a helmet 3034 02:54:32.319 --> 02:54:34.959 or get a jab from some pharmaceutical company either. 3035 02:54:35.719 --> 02:54:39.360 Yeah. I remember my dad started talking about the license 3036 02:54:39.399 --> 02:54:42.120 that George Washington didn't even have. My dad started driving 3037 02:54:42.159 --> 02:54:44.200 a car when he was eight years old because back 3038 02:54:44.239 --> 02:54:46.200 then there weren't that many cars, and a lot of 3039 02:54:46.239 --> 02:54:48.159 it was off road stuff because they didn't have a 3040 02:54:48.200 --> 02:54:51.040 lot of roads, and if you could find somebody that 3041 02:54:51.200 --> 02:54:53.840 was willing to turn their car over to you, that 3042 02:54:53.959 --> 02:54:55.799 was the key thing, right, If they could trust you 3043 02:54:55.840 --> 02:54:57.799 with a car not to wreck it, you could drive it. 3044 02:54:58.040 --> 02:55:01.559 And in my generation, I started driving motor boats because 3045 02:55:01.600 --> 02:55:03.600 we lived in Florida. I was driving motor boats when 3046 02:55:03.639 --> 02:55:08.879 I was eight, and then when we went to Virginia 3047 02:55:08.920 --> 02:55:11.559 to cover a story, at one point we wanted to 3048 02:55:12.159 --> 02:55:15.319 rent a boat and so we could get a better 3049 02:55:15.360 --> 02:55:20.559 angle at what we were shooting. And I was able 3050 02:55:20.600 --> 02:55:22.360 to do it because of my age. They had a 3051 02:55:22.399 --> 02:55:25.799 grandfather clause there, and this is actually even before I 3052 02:55:25.799 --> 02:55:29.159 became a grandfather, but I was old enough they were 3053 02:55:29.200 --> 02:55:32.239 calling me a grandfather because they knew that people our 3054 02:55:32.319 --> 02:55:34.520 age had been driving boats for a long time, and 3055 02:55:34.559 --> 02:55:36.799 we're going to put up with this licensing stuff, right, 3056 02:55:37.000 --> 02:55:39.319 So they put that requirement on the younger people to 3057 02:55:39.360 --> 02:55:41.280 get them in line. But they said, well, if you're 3058 02:55:41.280 --> 02:55:43.399 over a certain age, you don't need to have a 3059 02:55:43.479 --> 02:55:46.600 license to drive a boat. Is that crazy stuff? 3060 02:55:46.920 --> 02:55:49.959 Well, the really incredible thing is that even doesn't even 3061 02:55:50.000 --> 02:55:52.799 have anything to do with confidence as far as rock. 3062 02:55:53.280 --> 02:55:57.159 That's right, it's purely a government issued ID and it's 3063 02:55:57.200 --> 02:56:00.200 another obedience training session, that's all it is. You know, 3064 02:56:00.799 --> 02:56:03.920 a pilot at least who gets a license to fly 3065 02:56:04.120 --> 02:56:07.000 a private airplane or a commercial airplane actually has to 3066 02:56:07.040 --> 02:56:10.000 demonstrate that he's got the confidence to fly the airplane. 3067 02:56:10.440 --> 02:56:12.959 Nobody has to demonstrate any particular competence to get a 3068 02:56:13.040 --> 02:56:14.920 driver's license. So the whole thing is absurd. 3069 02:56:15.360 --> 02:56:18.760 That's you're absolutely right talking about Clarkson. Jeremy Clarkson. You 3070 02:56:18.840 --> 02:56:22.440 got an article there. He's had an interesting life after 3071 02:56:22.959 --> 02:56:26.559 cars are no more interesting. So now he's doing pubs 3072 02:56:26.600 --> 02:56:28.120 and he did a farm and all the rest of 3073 02:56:28.120 --> 02:56:32.319 this stuff, right, But his comment about cars, what did 3074 02:56:32.360 --> 02:56:32.719 he say? 3075 02:56:33.000 --> 02:56:36.920 Well, he used an expletive, which we all know. He's right. 3076 02:56:37.319 --> 02:56:39.360 You know, Clarkson is one of the old guys, the 3077 02:56:39.399 --> 02:56:41.879 old guard guys, and you know I admired him when 3078 02:56:41.920 --> 02:56:43.760 I was coming up, and also guys like brocky E 3079 02:56:43.879 --> 02:56:45.879 so you might remember from the cannonball around those yes, 3080 02:56:47.000 --> 02:56:49.479 and that was back in the days when car journalists 3081 02:56:49.520 --> 02:56:52.879 actually liked cars. You know, it seems like most of 3082 02:56:52.879 --> 02:56:57.040 the ones that are doing car journalism today actively dislike cars. 3083 02:56:57.159 --> 02:57:01.120 You know, they surely everything that makes cars unplayed unwanted 3084 02:57:01.159 --> 02:57:03.520 by people who actually do like cars. 3085 02:57:04.000 --> 02:57:04.200 You know. 3086 02:57:04.799 --> 02:57:08.120 Clarkson was a gear head and an enthusiast, and so 3087 02:57:08.200 --> 02:57:10.680 that clicked and resonated with you know, guys like me 3088 02:57:10.760 --> 02:57:13.280 when I was coming up, who loved cars, you know, 3089 02:57:13.360 --> 02:57:15.479 And he's what he meant by the exclutive was that 3090 02:57:15.479 --> 02:57:18.600 they are all just these homogeneous appliances now that try 3091 02:57:18.639 --> 02:57:22.280 to parent you, that try to data mine you, correct you, 3092 02:57:23.120 --> 02:57:25.799 and anybody who enjoys driving will hate these things. And 3093 02:57:25.799 --> 02:57:28.319 he's absolutely right. And you know, me is an active 3094 02:57:28.360 --> 02:57:31.559 journalist who reviews cars. You can't believe how difficult it 3095 02:57:31.600 --> 02:57:33.959 is for me sometimes to sit down and come up 3096 02:57:34.000 --> 02:57:36.879 with something positive to say about these new cars, or 3097 02:57:36.879 --> 02:57:39.639 at least I should phrase it differently, something different, like 3098 02:57:39.680 --> 02:57:43.440 what makes this appliance different than that appliance? Well, let's see, 3099 02:57:43.479 --> 02:57:47.120 this appliance has a nine inch LCD touchscreen and this 3100 02:57:47.200 --> 02:57:49.280 one over here has a twelve inch touchscreen. 3101 02:57:51.120 --> 02:57:53.319 That's right, you said for the longest time that just 3102 02:57:53.360 --> 02:57:56.319 turned into mobile cell phones that you're right inside of. 3103 02:57:56.600 --> 02:57:59.959 And Rowan Atkinson played mister Bean a lot of other things. 3104 02:58:00.079 --> 02:58:04.239 He's a black Adder, he's he's an engineer by trade 3105 02:58:04.840 --> 02:58:07.799 and became an actor, but he's and he's got these 3106 02:58:07.879 --> 02:58:09.600 very expensive cars and he's had them for a long time, 3107 02:58:09.600 --> 02:58:12.600 and years ago he said, you don't really drive these cars, 3108 02:58:12.639 --> 02:58:16.719 you managed them. And that's really one of the things 3109 02:58:16.760 --> 02:58:18.879 that you're talking about when you go back in the article, 3110 02:58:18.959 --> 02:58:21.879 you talk about when you're in high school and how 3111 02:58:22.120 --> 02:58:24.799 you know the cars were had their own idiosyncrasies, their 3112 02:58:24.799 --> 02:58:29.399 own failures, leaking roofs and rusty you know, floor pans 3113 02:58:29.399 --> 02:58:31.200 and all the rest of this stuff. But it was 3114 02:58:31.319 --> 02:58:34.319 fun and I had the same kind of experience. We 3115 02:58:34.360 --> 02:58:35.959 all had that experience. You know, we could get a 3116 02:58:36.040 --> 02:58:38.239 cheap car and it was a lot of fun even 3117 02:58:38.280 --> 02:58:40.600 with all those flaws. 3118 02:58:40.680 --> 02:58:42.559 Yeah, this brings up something I wrote about a few 3119 02:58:42.639 --> 02:58:45.639 days ago. You know, Volkslagen has acquired the Rice to 3120 02:58:45.680 --> 02:58:49.040 the Scout and the older National Scout remember that, Oh yeah, 3121 02:58:49.159 --> 02:58:52.639 and bringing that thing back now as another battery powered 3122 02:58:52.680 --> 02:58:56.120 device that's exorbitantly expensive and YadA, YadA, YadA. But in 3123 02:58:56.200 --> 02:58:59.319 researching the article, I came across some interesting comments by 3124 02:58:59.360 --> 02:59:02.079 the guy who's in charge of this operation, and he 3125 02:59:02.479 --> 02:59:05.399 had the audacity, i think, to refer to this thing 3126 02:59:05.559 --> 02:59:09.680 as a connection machine. Now there's nothing at all in 3127 02:59:09.719 --> 02:59:12.920 this thing that connects you to anything except sensors and actuators. 3128 02:59:13.239 --> 02:59:15.239 You know, they tried to make the interior look like 3129 02:59:15.280 --> 02:59:17.200 the old Scout in that it has levers and so on, 3130 02:59:17.239 --> 02:59:19.280 but those levers don't connect anything. You know, in the 3131 02:59:19.280 --> 02:59:22.840 old International Scout, you had a mechanical lever that connected 3132 02:59:22.879 --> 02:59:25.120 to the four wheel drive and the transfer case, and 3133 02:59:25.159 --> 02:59:27.079 you know you maybe had to get out and manually 3134 02:59:27.120 --> 02:59:30.159 locked put. That was connection rolling down a window. That's 3135 02:59:30.280 --> 02:59:33.760 physical mechanical connection. Now you sit inside your rolling app 3136 02:59:34.159 --> 02:59:36.200 and you know, you tap a screen and you push 3137 02:59:36.200 --> 02:59:38.879 a button and the computer then, you know, registers whatever 3138 02:59:38.920 --> 02:59:41.760 the data input is and then it decides to do something. 3139 02:59:41.799 --> 02:59:44.559 It is the It is the antithesis of being connected 3140 02:59:44.559 --> 02:59:45.159 in my opinion. 3141 02:59:45.280 --> 02:59:49.360 Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you're wired and that's it. You know, numbing. 3142 02:59:49.440 --> 02:59:52.440 It's a real numbing experience. Absolutely is always great to 3143 02:59:52.440 --> 02:59:55.360 talk to you. Thank you so much, Eric, Eric petersautos 3144 02:59:55.440 --> 02:59:59.280 dot com. Always about liberty and about mobility. Thank you 3145 02:59:59.319 --> 03:00:03.000 so much, and everyone, have a great weekend and hopefully 3146 03:00:03.079 --> 03:00:04.920 we will see you next week. 3147 03:00:05.040 --> 03:00:21.079 And the David Night Show is a critical thinking super spreader. 3148 03:00:22.000 --> 03:00:26.559 If you've been exposed to logic by listening to The 3149 03:00:26.680 --> 03:00:32.479 David Night Show.
