As 69 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 3: a lot of people, you know, may may not realize though, 70 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 3: that there was this when Charlie was going into Tormo. 71 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 2: Well you can talk about this a little bit. When 72 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 2: Charlie was. 73 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 5: Going into that over like was that training like the 74 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 5: you know, I think I'll start off with this, which 75 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 5: is one of the most common questions we'd get at 76 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 5: these events. 77 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 2: And on the show as people. 78 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 5: Young people would say, Charlie, how can I do what 79 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 5: you do? And I remember a conversation I had with 80 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 5: one of our team members, with Brian, and he said, 81 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 5: these people don't know what they're asking because they do 82 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 5: not want to do what Charlie does. And I can 83 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 5: confirm that, like I saw Charlie doing the grind in. 84 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:58,119 Speaker 2: And out every single day. 85 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 5: And I'll tell you the last conversation I had with 86 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 5: Charlie were preparing for an event just like this, one 87 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 5: bigger of course, but same thing, because he said, I 88 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 5: need to be ready for everything they could throw at me. 89 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 2: So what should we What's big right now? Oh? 90 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 5: Well, people are upset about Israel. Gaza prepped me on that, 91 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,239 Speaker 5: and then I need to be sharp on the Bible. 92 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 5: Let's let's study what does the Bible say on all 93 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 5: of these topics. The very last conversation I had with 94 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 5: Charlie by text, not even in person, it was Blake 95 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 5: remind me, what are all the good arguments for monogamy? 96 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 5: Which I think there's pretty pretty good arguments for monogamy. 97 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 2: But he he's just. 98 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,359 Speaker 5: Refreshed him to me, And you know why is why is? 99 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 5: Why is monogamy better than polygamy? 100 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 2: Why is European monogamy better than anyone else? The way? 101 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 2: Anywhere else does it? Why is divorced? Bad? Blake? Hit 102 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 2: he hit me? 103 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 4: Hit me? 104 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 3: Did he just think that he was going to get 105 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 3: a question on monogamy? 106 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, I think that. I think it probably was 107 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 2: in because it was Utah. I think. 108 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 5: We brought it up, you know. And that's what Charlie 109 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 5: was like. And it wasn't just because that event was 110 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 5: going on. 111 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 2: Charlie was able to go out and debate every single day. 112 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 5: Because Charlie was effectively debating every single day with you 113 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 5: and me, very in a friendly way. But he always 114 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 5: wanted to be prepared and so and he was always 115 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 5: ready to learn. So he would always be coming and saying, Blake, 116 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 5: what's what's a good argument on this about immigration? What's 117 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 5: the truth with going on with the border, what's the 118 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 5: truth with h one? B's I'm hearing about this thing? 119 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 5: I wouldn't real about that thing. I would get Jack 120 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 5: tell me about Russia. 121 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 2: What's going on? What's going on with Russia? Okay? Bye? 122 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 2: And you would do that, China. Let's go on with China. Okay, bye. 123 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 5: And what was so exceptional with Charlie was the profound 124 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 5: humility and that he. 125 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 2: Was always ready to learn. 126 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 5: He was always ready to pick up a new expert 127 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 5: who could teach him something, and he was never discouraged 128 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 5: by having a setback. He was doing an event like this, 129 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 5: probably in his last year. I bet he did thirty 130 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 5: of them in a year, something like that. And as 131 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 5: someone who had to review every sing one of those 132 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 5: just because we'd be posting them as podcast episodes, I 133 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,679 Speaker 5: will tell you Charlie did not win every single debate 134 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 5: he ever got in. Charlie did not win every single 135 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 5: exchange he had with students. He had somewhere they would 136 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 5: go viral with the left where the highlight would be, oh, 137 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 5: Charlie gets owned by student on this, and he would 138 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 5: get discouraged by it. But he would not be discouraged 139 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 5: ever in a way that made him slack on his prep. 140 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 5: Every setback for Charlie was always an opportunity to just. 141 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 2: Learn more, get better. 142 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 5: I think one of the best lessons you can get 143 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 5: from Charlie. One of the reasons he achieved so much 144 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 5: in barely thirty years of life. Is that Charlie understood 145 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,119 Speaker 5: that the person who fails the most actually succeeds the most. 146 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 2: That's cool. 147 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 6: He had and he would have these huge, you know, 148 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 6: like folders of debates and topics and it would be 149 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 6: color coded, and you know, oh, hey, here this is. 150 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 2: A section on when he was in his car, when 151 00:06:59,320 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 2: he was flying. 152 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 5: And he was such an immense discipline over time, so 153 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 5: you know, you know, look, okay, here's the taxes section, 154 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,359 Speaker 5: and they pulled this up to taxes, here's something on immigration, 155 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 5: and he would just go to it stats and the 156 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 5: discipline over his time because people would wonder about this, 157 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 5: so it literally he would get off the plane and 158 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 5: he'd say, all right, first thing, first, let's call let's 159 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 5: call the family, calls up, Erica, has his kids on 160 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 5: the phone, talks to them for you know, several minutes. 161 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 2: Hey say hi to Blake everyone, and then do all 162 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 2: of that. 163 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 5: He'd get it close it and then he'd go all right, Blake, 164 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 5: where were we on this? And just instantly pivot over 165 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 5: to this topic. And then once he was done with 166 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 5: me or Dan or anyone else on the team, he 167 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 5: would just he'd be going through his. 168 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 2: His binders on his own as well. 169 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 5: Just memorize every single talking point, and again it's that 170 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 5: every single defeat was a chance to build to a 171 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 5: new victory. Every single uh setback was a chance to 172 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 5: get better. And that was the grind that made Charlie 173 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 5: a famous debater. 174 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 2: It was that and fearlessness. 175 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 5: And I can't say, as someone doing this for the 176 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 5: first time, I know there's a lot of nervousness. I 177 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 5: can't say how he felt the first time he ever 178 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 5: did it. But what I can say is by the 179 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 5: time I saw him out there, he was a guy 180 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 5: who he wasn't afraid to argue in front of one 181 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 5: hundred people, He wasn't afraid to argue in front. 182 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 2: Of three thousand people. 183 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 5: He wasn't afraid if this was going to be seen 184 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 5: by ten million people on Fox News or if it 185 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 5: was going to go viral to one hundred million people 186 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 5: on TikTok. And it was simultaneously never being afraid of 187 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 5: the sheer number of people out there, or ever forgetting 188 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 5: when you're talking to just one person that all hones 189 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 5: in on that person, you have to speak to them 190 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 5: as the individual. And so I just loop back to. 191 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 2: People would always ask, what how can I be like Charlie. 192 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 5: That's how you'd be like Charlie. It is a truly daily, 193 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 5: endless effort. You never slack, you never get lazy. And 194 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 5: I think Jack, you and I can both attest that 195 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 5: he was one of the best at it. And we 196 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 5: know because students like you would tell us that. We 197 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 5: know because of the emails we received. But most of all, 198 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 5: we know, and the reason we're here today we know 199 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 5: because someone was so afraid about the arguments that Charlie 200 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,839 Speaker 5: might make that rather than just grab that mic and 201 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 5: make the argument against him, he took things into his 202 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 5: own hands in a very different way. 203 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 2: And I'll even you know on that note, I'll address that. 204 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 3: So I heard there was this situation with another group, 205 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 3: the unf America Tour, that they were trying to have 206 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 3: an event on ASU's campus today as. 207 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,959 Speaker 2: Well, and they actually came by. 208 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 3: They paid us a visit at the Turning Point headquarters 209 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 3: earlier today, and we broadcast that live on my show 210 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 3: on Human Events Daily, and we went out, Blake and 211 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 3: I went out, and Adria Colvett, who we work with, 212 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 3: also went out, and there had been some misconception and 213 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 3: they were. 214 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 2: They were asking us if we played a role in 215 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 2: having their event. 216 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 3: Canceled, and I said, not only did we not have 217 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 3: a role in that, but also our event got canceled too. 218 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 2: So you know, if believe me, if we had that kind. 219 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 3: Of pull, we would have obviously just stuck with our 220 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 3: own regular event that we were planning to have. And 221 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 3: I feel like we had a pretty good conversation with them. 222 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 3: Some of those clips are going around right now. I'm 223 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 3: sure there's going to be some more as well. And yeah, 224 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 3: we chopped it up a little bit, you know, as 225 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 3: as Blake is saying here, which. 226 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 5: Is what we'd want to do, because what we want 227 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 5: to do, Charlie is every time he did an event, 228 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 5: it was those who disagreed come to the front first 229 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 5: and in agreement fest and when we. 230 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 3: Go to yeah, when we go to the mic, that's 231 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 3: exactly what we're going to say. But I just wanted 232 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 3: to add that that was something that we eventually all 233 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 3: agreed with because they said, well, what do you think 234 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 3: about us having a left wing version of you know, 235 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 3: the Turning Point Campus Tour? What do you think about that? 236 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 3: And I said, honestly, I would appreciate you guys doing this, 237 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 3: then a guy climbing up on a building and doing 238 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 3: what he did to Charlie, Right, I think we can 239 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 3: all agree on that, and I certainly wouldn't want anyone 240 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:13,199 Speaker 3: doing that on the other side either. So, because that's 241 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 3: what it's all about, that's what being an Americans all about, 242 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 3: that's what the First Amendment is all about, that's what 243 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 3: our country is all about, that's what civic life is 244 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,559 Speaker 3: all about. That you can't have the system of government 245 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 3: that we have, you can't have the system of laws. 246 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 3: And right there the Constitution and the Bill of Rights 247 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 3: are right up on the wall. 248 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 5: They must have a law that requires there's be a 249 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 5: law that has that up in everywhere? 250 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 3: Is that a law here in Arizona. I'm not from Arizona, 251 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 3: from Pennsylvania. 252 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 2: The other room we were in also had them, but yeah, 253 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 2: we noticed in the other room too. That's why I 254 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 2: thought it might be there. 255 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 3: And that's the point, though, is that this is the 256 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 3: system that we have. We don't have a system where 257 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 3: we resort to violence to hash out our disagreements. 258 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 2: We don't resort to violence. We don't we don't do that. 259 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 2: And that's why what happened to Charlie not to you know, 260 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 2: go out at length unless people have questions about it. 261 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 3: But that's why what happened to him is so heinous 262 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 3: because it was an attack on Charlie, but it was 263 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 3: also an attack on the ideals of our country, the 264 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 3: ideals of our country which are based on free speech, 265 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 3: free debate, free dialogue, and the ability of someone to 266 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 3: be able to get up in the public square and 267 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 3: what could be more of the modern public square than 268 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 3: a university campus, and to be able to have those debates. 269 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 2: And that's what Charlie was all about. 270 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 5: How many of you, how many of you know what 271 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 5: a black pillar is? Raise your hand, boom, you all 272 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 5: know what a black kid. So black pillars for those 273 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 5: who aren't terminally online, it's it's the person who is 274 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 5: always a doomer, always defeat us, who says everything's going south, 275 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 5: and so either everything's going to collapse or only radical 276 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 5: things can stop the collapse, like you a black pillar mission. 277 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 5: They always would accuse me of this. It probably because 278 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 5: my name starts with me. His nickname we do we do. 279 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 3: Like a Thursday podcast where it's all those together and 280 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 3: we do kind of nickname in black pill Blake sometimes 281 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 3: sorry but no. 282 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 5: But I want to emphasize that that the system Charlie 283 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 5: died believing. 284 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 2: In is that he was never a black pillar. He 285 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 2: was never a doomer. 286 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 5: He believed that this system that we have in America 287 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 5: is one where you can go on a campus and 288 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 5: you can win an argument and you can change people's minds. 289 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 5: And he lived that out because we saw him personally 290 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 5: helped turn the tide on big issues. He turned the 291 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,839 Speaker 5: tide on who'd vote for in twenty twenty four, He 292 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 5: turned the tide on the transgender as AM issue, which 293 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 5: is one reason he was so. 294 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 2: That man hated him. 295 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 5: And he died believing that argument could carry the day 296 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 5: in America. He died believing that freedom of speech was 297 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 5: the way we can resolve our differences. He died telling people, 298 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,599 Speaker 5: you don't need a revolution, you don't need to overthrow 299 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 5: the state, you don't need to do something crazy. You 300 00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 5: can change this country with a microphone, with some bravery 301 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 5: and with some actual diligence taking action. Charlie was always 302 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 5: the one go out there, debate people, do things, organize, 303 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 5: get out the vote. That was Charlie's message. That's what 304 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 5: he died for and that's why you and I have 305 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 5: to pick up the mic. 306 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 3: And I think that was and I think ultimately, you know, 307 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 3: the the the moment that you know and the one 308 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 3: I forgot the name. But she said to me that, 309 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 3: you know, she had actually met Charlie once and this 310 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 3: you know from the other tour. 311 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 2: And had uh and said, you know, well. 312 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 3: One day because she was look at the Turning Point 313 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 3: campus and say it and said, you know, one day 314 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 3: I want to get so big that we have buildings 315 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 3: in a campus and all this to it. And I said, okay, well, 316 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 3: good luck, and she goes, that's the same thing. Charlie said, 317 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 3: good luck. I said, you know what, good luck fine, 318 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 3: because that's our system. Our system is go out there, 319 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 3: try to do it. If you can't. If you can't 320 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 3: do it, try again. If you fail, try harder that 321 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 3: so Charlie was all about. Charlie never gave up. And 322 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 3: you know, there's ever gonna be another Charlie Kirk.

You say you know 372 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 5: their jokes, and I think, as long as they are jokes, 373 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 5: don't hunt for offense because that alienates people. But I 374 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 5: think you are correct to see this problem. I think 375 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 5: this is something Charlie was super concerned about. We talked 376 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 5: about this, yeah, even into his final days, because it. 377 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 2: Is yes, we do not you guys, and I appreciate 378 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 2: that thought.

Franco didn't trying to eliminate these looks 505 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 7: they were, it's like the Basque counting. 506 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 3: Things like things like smashing churches, things like murdering priests, 507 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 3: things like raping nuns on the altars and then taking 508 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 3: their dead bodies and parading them in the town square. 509 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 2: I have photos if you'd like to see. 510 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 3: And all of these absolute atrocities which were going on throughout. 511 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 2: Spain, which you didn't seem to mention. 512 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 7: Well, I agree, I agree that all that is wrong, 513 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 7: but I don't understand how any of that can justify 514 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,439 Speaker 7: leveling Gernica or all the other things that I mentioned. 515 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 2: Again, it was a civil war. 516 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 7: Well, but the banning of all those cultures that happened 517 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 7: after the civil war. 518 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 3: Again, it was a civil war. There was a situation 519 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 3: that he led. And again I've never once said that 520 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 3: America should be like Franco Spain. Just people have tried 521 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 3: to put words in my mouth and say that I've 522 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 3: said that, never said that. 523 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,200 Speaker 2: Okay, Well, sorry, I didn't mean to straw Man you. No, no, 524 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:28,719 Speaker 2: I'm not necessarily saying that you said that. 525 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 3: But there are people who have tried to say that. 526 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 3: I've just never said it. 527 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:32,479 Speaker 2: Okay. 528 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 7: So, but even after the Civil War, I was still 529 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 7: illegal for people from those groups to speak their languages 530 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 7: and practice their cultures. I mean, why in the name 531 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 7: of national unity, why was that? I mean, do you 532 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 7: think that was okay? 533 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 3: Well, Spain is a totally different history than the United States. 534 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:53,400 Speaker 3: So their their history in terms of maintaining their their culture, 535 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 3: their heritage, maintaining their territorial integrity, it's totally different from 536 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 3: our culture of so they have a culture for that 537 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,679 Speaker 3: had to deal with the occupation of the Muslims, the 538 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 3: occupation of the Moors, and who they fought against for 539 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 3: almost one thousand, seven hundred years to be able to 540 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 3: expel and then maintain their territorial and cultural identity. And 541 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 3: so in that context, I'm sure that's what they were 542 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 3: operating under. But the United States of America has a 543 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 3: totally different system than Spain. We are not Spain. We 544 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 3: don't hopefully are not going to be speaking Spanish as 545 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 3: our national language anytime soon. But of course, you see 546 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:31,439 Speaker 3: the way things are going that might happen or at 547 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 3: least as a as a you know, quasi secondary language, 548 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 3: and so I wouldn't necessarily say that the things done 549 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 3: within the Spanish context are things that we should do 550 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,679 Speaker 3: here in the American context, just because they're two totally 551 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 3: different situations. 552 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 2: Okay, thank you very much, thank you, Thank you. 553 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 9: Hi, folks, Andrew Colvett here, I'd like to tell you 554 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 9: about my friends over at why Refi.

So there's obviously 657 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 4: a vested interest in large groups and. 658 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 2: Accounts and narrative control at the CIA. 659 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 4: So if Erica Kirk is actually someone who was working 660 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 4: for the CIA, there's no former CIA people. 661 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 2: Everybody's still working for the agency. 662 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 4: The question is, you know, should they be front center 663 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 4: at turning Point in your opinion? 664 00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 2: Well, I'll start with this by the way. 665 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 3: So so Blake, this is your first event and just 666 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 3: permit me if you will. I think this helped answer 667 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 3: your quest. Maybe you help answer your question or at 668 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 3: least give some insight. Blake, this is your first you. 669 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 2: Know, pick up the mic. 670 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 3: Anytimes you stood next to Charlie number of times, but. 671 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 2: Never done it before. 672 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 3: Has anyone prior to you coming up here told you 673 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 3: anything about what you have to say and what you 674 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 3: can't say. Nope, any like, not even just a turning 675 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 3: point anyone in general. Nope, same way for me, there 676 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 3: hasn't been. And and I did z Erica, you know, 677 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 3: earlier today, and you just said good luck, you know, basically, So, 678 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 3: I mean, there isn't really a set up. You talk 679 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 3: about narrative formation, that nobody really was. So if I 680 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 3: was doing narrative formation, and I am a prior intelligence 681 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 3: officer that you know, I would make sure I would 682 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 3: make sure that I would say to my subjects, Hey, 683 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 3: you know, make sure you plug this thing, this thing, 684 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 3: this thing, make sure you say this about Iran, make 685 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 3: sure you say this about the war, make sure you 686 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 3: say this about the president, et cetera. If I were, 687 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 3: you know, running that kind of operation, it's just we don't. 688 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 3: We've just never done that. They said the event, here 689 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 3: you go, here's the room, here's the mics, have at it, 690 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 3: and that was pretty much it. So if you're running 691 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 3: a syop like that, you want to make sure that 692 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,480 Speaker 3: you're hitting those repetition points over and over and over. 693 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 3: Yet that's just that's just not something that was done. Look, 694 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 3: you know, I know there's different pieces of media that 695 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 3: Erica did when you know she was working as you know, 696 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 3: she was in in media and she was doing you know, 697 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 3: different contracts. 698 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 2: With little people. 699 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 3: People do different you know, people take different contracts. It's 700 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 3: when you're you know, when you're in that world, and 701 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 3: you know, I think that you know, she did obviously 702 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 3: different things. 703 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 2: You know, I know a lot. 704 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 3: Of people that have you know, tried to be actresses 705 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 3: and stars and different things, and you know, they take 706 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 3: different contracts. 707 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 2: It's it's kind of you know what you get. 708 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 5: I want to I want to get to the crux 709 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 5: of it, which is but but that's not and yeah, 710 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 5: to get to the rucks of it. 711 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 3: That just because you do a contract job for somebody 712 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 3: at one point you just look up IMDb on any 713 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 3: but even even. 714 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 2: For I am actually in a Jackie Chance, but even 715 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 2: from dB. 716 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 5: So you asked why if it was wise to put 717 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 5: Erica front and center at the organization. The reason Erica 718 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 5: is front and center at turning point is because when 719 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 5: Charlie was alive, people repeatedly asked, Charlie, we're worried something 720 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 5: will happen to people. Always speculated that something could happen 721 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 5: to Charlie, and when he was asked he would he 722 00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 5: would First of all, he was totally fearless. He would 723 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 5: just say, like, oh, it'll be fine, Erica will take 724 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,399 Speaker 5: over for me. That is what he said over and over. 725 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 5: I saw them interact all the time, almost on a 726 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 5: daily basis. Even when he was traveling, he was calling 727 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 5: her all the time. He was talking to her all 728 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 5: the time. Charlie and Erica were partners. They were husband 729 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 5: and wife in a deep way. Their marriage was incredibly admirable. 730 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,479 Speaker 5: I've seen a lot of marriages. Some of them are good, 731 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 5: some of them are bad. Charlie and Erica's was exceptional. 732 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,799 Speaker 5: They were on the same wavelength. I saw how much 733 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 5: that relationship. 734 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 2: I didn't know. 735 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 5: Erica as well prior to Charlie's death, but especially in 736 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 5: the wake of it, I saw how much everything he'd 737 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 5: done meant to her, and how completely committed she was 738 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,799 Speaker 5: to fulfilling his mission, what he had done in life 739 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,359 Speaker 5: that she knew. The life I thought I was going 740 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:01,439 Speaker 5: to live has changed v area abruptly, But I am 741 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,719 Speaker 5: fearlessly going to embrace the new one because I know 742 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,799 Speaker 5: it's what I have to do for my husband and 743 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 5: for his legacy. That is the reason she was put 744 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 5: front and center, and she hasn't really she has become 745 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 5: the CEO of the organization because that is what Charlie wanted. 746 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:17,759 Speaker 5: And it's because I saw it with all the people 747 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 5: who were senior at Turning Point. There wasn't even a 748 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 5: question that that is what would happen. There was no 749 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 5: one forcing this. There is no one pressuring it to happen. 750 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 5: This is what everyone at Turning Point wanted to happen. 751 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 5: But the mind War Paul Valelli connection. 752 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:37,919 Speaker 4: To US Army psychological operations is more to the point 753 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,600 Speaker 4: where the CIA and Erica Kirk being hired by the 754 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 4: CIA before meeting Charlie in a media you know, a 755 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 4: media outfit of his own founding right where you know, 756 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,839 Speaker 4: it's a war of the words out there, so to speak. 757 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:58,359 Speaker 5: Are there words that you believe she's used that are 758 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:01,359 Speaker 5: completely different from what Charli would advocate. I have never 759 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 5: seen such a thing, not at all, or like for example, 760 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 5: we've continued the Charlie Kirk Show and we've talked about 761 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:13,919 Speaker 5: the war, and I don't think we've taken a pro 762 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,719 Speaker 5: war attitude on our program, and I don't think we've 763 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 5: ever faced any pressure on that front, whether from Erica, 764 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 5: from Turning Point, or from the government. And I think 765 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 5: in truth like it's been very up Like, yeah, like 766 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:30,560 Speaker 5: it's been I'll be frank, it's been very upsetting for 767 00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:35,799 Speaker 5: me to run into insinuations and allegations like this, because Jack, 768 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:37,440 Speaker 5: if you and I want to have to borrow this 769 00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:38,439 Speaker 5: to get into it, like. 770 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 2: I didn't make any allegations against you, well I'm not. 771 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 5: Saying you did, but a lot of people have used 772 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:47,479 Speaker 5: the things you mentioned to do it. And I've seen 773 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 5: people incredibly close to Charlie that he cared about, and 774 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 5: who I knew cared a lot about Charlie face a 775 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 5: lot of bizarre harassment in these months since then, in 776 00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 5: a period where they're trying to build on what Charlie did, 777 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 5: they've been trying to grieve themselves, and they've had to 778 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 5: deal with people nitpicking how they behaved after someone was. 779 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 2: Shot to death right in front of them. 780 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 5: They've been nitpicking publicly what these yes publicly while they 781 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 5: were there in front of them. 782 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,400 Speaker 2: I was there, I was ten feet away from it 783 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 2: when it happened. 784 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,320 Speaker 5: And I've been blessed in that I haven't been harassed 785 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:21,359 Speaker 5: nearly as many as some of the people I've known. 786 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:26,719 Speaker 5: But I find it, I find it detestable what some 787 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,400 Speaker 5: people have done because Jack, you and I can attest 788 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 5: it because we've looked at it as closely as anyone, 789 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 5: that we are very confident that. 790 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 2: They have the right person in this case?

Personally, like 925 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:44,080 Speaker 3: I said, I wish they'd come out day one week 926 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 3: one put. 927 00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:46,359 Speaker 2: It all out, or if you have to go through 928 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 2: it and put it out weekly. 929 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 3: Whatever it is, he should have been should have been sooner. 930 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 3: Obviously he can't change the past on that. But I 931 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:54,360 Speaker 3: would love to see arrests. I would absolutely love to 932 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:57,279 Speaker 3: see arrests in the UK. Right they got arrest for 933 00:43:57,840 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 3: the well, it was Prince Andrew. I guess they took 934 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:01,800 Speaker 3: his title away and he was arrested. 935 00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:04,760 Speaker 2: They got rid. They had to drop their what's. 936 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:08,160 Speaker 3: The guy's name again, mandelssoon Lord Mandalsson, Lord Mandelson had 937 00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:11,600 Speaker 3: to get dropped out of their cabinet. I don't know 938 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:13,320 Speaker 3: if he's been arrested, but it was a part of 939 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 3: this insider trading thing. 940 00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:16,840 Speaker 2: And there's been a number of instances where we've seen. 941 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 3: Again and again and again that it seemed like Jeffrey 942 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:22,240 Speaker 3: Epstein had this influence over his rich. 943 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:24,880 Speaker 2: Friends slash, you know, clients. 944 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:31,719 Speaker 3: Some might say that certainly to my mind, requires criminal scrutiny. 945 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:34,600 Speaker 11: So it seems like we're all in agreement we want 946 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:36,960 Speaker 11: them prosecuted, but we do disagree a bit on what 947 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:38,279 Speaker 11: sufficient disclosure. 948 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:40,640 Speaker 5: I would say, I would first of all point out 949 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:45,799 Speaker 5: that we have more Epstein transparency now by about two 950 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,640 Speaker 5: orders of magnitude maybe than we we're not saying. 951 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:52,600 Speaker 2: Sufficient they've done that. There's been no accountability. 952 00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:55,160 Speaker 5: Like think about the fact that Bill gay, it's one 953 00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,719 Speaker 5: of the ten richest people in the world, is profoundly 954 00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 5: humiliated right now. He's basically socially ruined by everything that's 955 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:03,479 Speaker 5: come out. The richest man in the world, Elon Musk, 956 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:05,480 Speaker 5: he got embarrassed by what came out of the files 957 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:08,359 Speaker 5: because of the exchanges he was having with Epstein's team. 958 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,359 Speaker 5: I believe the General Council of Goldman Sachs, I think 959 00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:14,120 Speaker 5: got forced out of his job. That's a pretty elite position. 960 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:16,400 Speaker 5: What I would say, And you know what the President 961 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 5: warned about. What the President warned about when this was 962 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 5: all ramping up last summer, is if you just release 963 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,640 Speaker 5: everything in a blanket way, there are going to be 964 00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:26,160 Speaker 5: people who are going to be assumed guilty of crimes 965 00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:29,960 Speaker 5: who aren't guilty of of anything. And I think that's 966 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,400 Speaker 5: been born out because there is an element where people 967 00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:35,000 Speaker 5: have just demanded anyone whose name has appeared in. 968 00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 2: This should be arrested. 969 00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:40,120 Speaker 5: I firmly believe, yeah, if you can a specific person 970 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 5: who abused a specific other person or engage in truly 971 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:45,880 Speaker 5: illegal behavior that's been alleged. 972 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:47,760 Speaker 2: They should be prosecuted, they should be arrested. 973 00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:51,160 Speaker 5: But I would always encourage people to look closely at 974 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:54,759 Speaker 5: what is actually proven in anything that's happened, because I 975 00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 5: don't follow this as aggressively as some people, but I've 976 00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,680 Speaker 5: seen it happen over and over where oh, a photo 977 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:02,719 Speaker 5: comes out and just because one of the faces has 978 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 5: blurred out, they'll say, oh, this is this person with 979 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,760 Speaker 5: their victim, with no evidence that this person was a minor, 980 00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:12,040 Speaker 5: was trafficked, that there was any sexual relationship. 981 00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 2: Of any kind. And you can't run a country that way. 982 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 5: You can't run a country through insinuations, through guilt by association. 983 00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 2: You have to actually prove things. 984 00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:25,880 Speaker 5: And I think as much as it's embarrassing to the 985 00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:28,000 Speaker 5: world's elites that they were all just friends with this guy, 986 00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 5: who we can all agree is very gross, we do 987 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:32,320 Speaker 5: have to be careful before we jump from that to 988 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:36,000 Speaker 5: mass arrests. For everybody that sounds. 989 00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:38,000 Speaker 3: Cathartasity and now I'm gonna start disagreement. 990 00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 2: I do want mass arrests. 991 00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 3: But when Bill Clinton started looking at some of those pictures, 992 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,319 Speaker 3: you guys saw this right. When he was looking at 993 00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:49,440 Speaker 3: those pictures, you could see Old Bill had that like 994 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:50,440 Speaker 3: wistful look. 995 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 2: In his eye where he's like he's like, oh yeah, 996 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:56,600 Speaker 2: that was oh yeah, oh yeah, I remember that fashioned. 997 00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:58,040 Speaker 2: I think Bill get should just go to jail for 998 00:46:58,120 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 2: perjury back and. 999 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:03,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, and Billgates to Biligates should go to jail for 1000 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:04,160 Speaker 5: Windows Vista. 1001 00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:06,360 Speaker 2: He should definitely go to jail for Windows Vista. Then 1002 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,319 Speaker 2: can we all agree on that at least? Yeah? 1003 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:11,080 Speaker 3: No, No, it's it's it's something where look, at the 1004 00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 3: end of the day, I think we need to understand that, 1005 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 3: you know, we talk about these questions of policy in 1006 00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:18,480 Speaker 3: our country. 1007 00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:19,480 Speaker 2: I'll take it to a higher level. 1008 00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 3: I guess we talk about these questions of war, like 1009 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:27,200 Speaker 3: the gentleman was just asking of war, of diplomacy, of negotiations, 1010 00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:29,840 Speaker 3: and then we find out that something like Epstein was 1011 00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:33,400 Speaker 3: going on, and we tell people that, oh, well, just 1012 00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:36,160 Speaker 3: trust us, we've cleaned it all up. And I think 1013 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 3: there's serious questions that arise then that how can we 1014 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:43,600 Speaker 3: trust what any decision maker is making if they were 1015 00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:46,400 Speaker 3: a part of these activities. And I'm talking about the 1016 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:50,760 Speaker 3: nefarious and criminal activity side that you know that they weren't, 1017 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:54,440 Speaker 3: you know, trying to conduct some action or conduct some 1018 00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:59,960 Speaker 3: foreign policy maneuver because they were worried about their involvement. 1019 00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:01,239 Speaker 2: In EPs operations coming out. 1020 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:03,360 Speaker 3: And I think these are serious questions when you have 1021 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:05,960 Speaker 3: people like the ones that we've seen, the ones that 1022 00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:07,919 Speaker 3: we've talked about, the elites that were involved in there, 1023 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:12,840 Speaker 3: what question does this leverage or what influence does this leverage? 1024 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:15,520 Speaker 3: Blackmail if you want to call it, that have in 1025 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,080 Speaker 3: our society when you look Jeffrey Epstein had all this 1026 00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:21,120 Speaker 3: leverage over Bill Gates and then suddenly Bill Gates is 1027 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:23,960 Speaker 3: kind of kind of handed the reins to our society 1028 00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:24,760 Speaker 3: during COVID. 1029 00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:25,920 Speaker 2: Did that play and influence? 1030 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:29,600 Speaker 3: I don't know, but it's certainly something that as a citizen. 1031 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:31,240 Speaker 2: Of a free republic, we should all be asking. 1032 00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:32,239 Speaker 12: Well. 1033 00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:34,760 Speaker 11: I completely agree with the fact that I do believe 1034 00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:39,920 Speaker 11: Clinton is well both Clinton's are likely part of that 1035 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,960 Speaker 11: whole ring. I also would agree with Bill Gates. But 1036 00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:45,879 Speaker 11: someone you didn't mention that I think is implicated as 1037 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:46,520 Speaker 11: much more. 1038 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:50,720 Speaker 2: Would be a President Donald Trump with multiple credible. 1039 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:54,520 Speaker 11: Allegations according to FBI documents. Would they claim they seem 1040 00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:58,560 Speaker 11: to be credible and across many interviews seemed to have 1041 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:01,400 Speaker 11: the same story, not have any holes in it. So 1042 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:03,400 Speaker 11: what do you feel about that, as you mentioning the 1043 00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:07,600 Speaker 11: blackmail where it's reasonable to assume that Israel has it. 1044 00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:11,880 Speaker 11: You know, Epstein had ties to Israel and Masad, possibly 1045 00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:14,520 Speaker 11: the Israel could have those they have leverage over us. 1046 00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 11: Russia claims to have had access to the files and 1047 00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:19,799 Speaker 11: have blackmail on Trump. So do you feel like those 1048 00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:21,839 Speaker 11: people could be black mailing a president in which case 1049 00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:22,760 Speaker 11: putting us in danger. 1050 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,239 Speaker 3: Well, I mean you look at those cases. In a 1051 00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:27,440 Speaker 3: number of those cases, Blake you might remember exactly and 1052 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:29,880 Speaker 3: better than me, but they were looked into. A lot 1053 00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,319 Speaker 3: of those were actually found to have a lot of 1054 00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:32,919 Speaker 3: holes in them. 1055 00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:33,880 Speaker 2: A lot of them. 1056 00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:36,520 Speaker 3: Didn't actually hold up under scrutiny. They you know, people 1057 00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:40,759 Speaker 3: were even making phone calls into the FBI saying, oh, 1058 00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:42,840 Speaker 3: you know, Donald Trump did this to me years ago 1059 00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:47,000 Speaker 3: after Epstein had already become public. So just because somebody 1060 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,400 Speaker 3: calls in and makes a complaint to the FBI, this 1061 00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:50,520 Speaker 3: still doesn't mean it's credible. 1062 00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:52,760 Speaker 2: And as I as a guy who worked in the intelligence. 1063 00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 3: Community, I just real quick, you know, we would get 1064 00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:57,640 Speaker 3: reports all the time that you know, somebody walks in 1065 00:49:57,719 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 3: and says, oh, something happened, you still have to check 1066 00:49:59,680 --> 00:49:59,960 Speaker 3: it out. 1067 00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:01,239 Speaker 2: You still have to actually go in. 1068 00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:02,799 Speaker 3: And this is one of the issues when you're looking 1069 00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:06,120 Speaker 3: at raw information like this, is that it's not it 1070 00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:10,080 Speaker 3: hasn't been assessed, Its credibility hasn't actually been been weighed 1071 00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:12,520 Speaker 3: and measured. That's something I'm going to be asking if 1072 00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:14,840 Speaker 3: I get the opportunity to a senior DJ official to 1073 00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:15,680 Speaker 3: ask about those. 1074 00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:16,200 Speaker 2: Sorts of things. 1075 00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:20,360 Speaker 3: But in every instance with Donald Trump, it has always 1076 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:22,640 Speaker 3: fallen apart. And we've seen a pattern of this for 1077 00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:25,680 Speaker 3: years with Donald Trump, that there's an allegation against him 1078 00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:27,000 Speaker 3: and people look into it. 1079 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:29,200 Speaker 2: And it just doesn't hold scrutiny. 1080 00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:33,560 Speaker 5: I fall back to the same default that Charlie often did, 1081 00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,719 Speaker 5: which is just to point out that throughout, as you said, 1082 00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:38,280 Speaker 5: we had four years of Biden. 1083 00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:41,320 Speaker 2: They basically rewrote New York state. 1084 00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:45,839 Speaker 5: Laws specifically so that he could be sued by what's her. 1085 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 2: Name, the James. 1086 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:49,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, so litician James could go after him, 1087 00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 5: to go after his organization. They completely warped their laws. 1088 00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:56,160 Speaker 5: They could go after him for his financial filings from 1089 00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:58,720 Speaker 5: his company. They said he was covering up a felony, 1090 00:50:58,760 --> 00:50:59,160 Speaker 5: you know, for. 1091 00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:01,120 Speaker 2: The Alvin Brag. 1092 00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 5: Alvin Bragg was interpreting statutes in Abwe go after him. 1093 00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:07,680 Speaker 5: They're basically rewriting the law to go after him. At 1094 00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:11,240 Speaker 5: the federal level with the Special Prosecutor, they're basically rewriting 1095 00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:13,040 Speaker 5: the law to go after him in Florida. They're coming 1096 00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:16,399 Speaker 5: up with endless novel legal approaches to go. 1097 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:18,920 Speaker 2: After Donald Trump once he's out of office. 1098 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:21,399 Speaker 5: And they're doing this for a simple reason that they 1099 00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:25,120 Speaker 5: are fanatically obsessed with putting Donald Trump in prison because 1100 00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:28,360 Speaker 5: they hate him. Actually, and they did multiple special and 1101 00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:29,200 Speaker 5: they did the Special Council. 1102 00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:32,840 Speaker 2: They were Robert Roller the day that they're going to 1103 00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:33,319 Speaker 2: keep doing it. 1104 00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:36,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, And we have basically a decade of NonStop effort 1105 00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:40,840 Speaker 5: to find something to put Donald Trump in prison. And 1106 00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:43,600 Speaker 5: then you're telling me that we actually had secret evidence 1107 00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 5: from the Epstein files, which were already well known and 1108 00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:49,160 Speaker 5: famous at this time for four years of President Biden, 1109 00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,640 Speaker 5: and they never bothered to indict him on that. 1110 00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:54,640 Speaker 2: I just find that pretty unlikely. 1111 00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:56,920 Speaker 11: I would assume that they didn't release them and indict 1112 00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:58,600 Speaker 11: him on that because they're part of the two. 1113 00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:00,520 Speaker 2: So I think all of them part of it. 1114 00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:03,680 Speaker 11: If they release about one person, now they implicate everyone else, 1115 00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:05,279 Speaker 11: and now it's I would encourage you. 1116 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:08,840 Speaker 5: To look at for example, there's a bunch of roads 1117 00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:10,600 Speaker 5: and parks that are going to be renamed in Phoenix 1118 00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:12,680 Speaker 5: in the next few days because they were named after 1119 00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:13,480 Speaker 5: Caesar Chavez. 1120 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:15,759 Speaker 2: The Left doesn't. 1121 00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:18,919 Speaker 5: Have a problem throwing out their own people to get 1122 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:23,280 Speaker 5: someone that they sufficiently hate. You guys might not remember, 1123 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:25,800 Speaker 5: but about a decade ago Al Franken, he was a senator. 1124 00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:28,080 Speaker 2: They threw him out as part of me too. 1125 00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:31,480 Speaker 5: They are totally willing to dump their own lawmakers, their 1126 00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:35,200 Speaker 5: own fundraisers, their own people. Harvey Weinstein, a big Democrat fundraiser, 1127 00:52:35,520 --> 00:52:38,200 Speaker 5: they threw him out. They don't have a problem taking 1128 00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:41,000 Speaker 5: out their own people, and they still never took out 1129 00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:43,640 Speaker 5: Donald Trump with Epstein, I think that's the best evidence 1130 00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:48,920 Speaker 5: that there really is not a lot there personally. But 1131 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:50,920 Speaker 5: I want us to make sure we get to some 1132 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:54,000 Speaker 5: more questions. So thank you very much, Thank you very much. 1133 00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:54,399 Speaker 2: Cheers. 1134 00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:59,520 Speaker 3: It's Neil Blake that that actually is to me. I 1135 00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:01,520 Speaker 3: think that is that's one of the strongest arguments that 1136 00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:04,880 Speaker 3: why not just release it yourselves when you could have 1137 00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:05,800 Speaker 3: Why go to all. 1138 00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:07,880 Speaker 2: The Russia Gate and dossier's and all this. 1139 00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:12,279 Speaker 9: If you're a parent, you don't need to be told 1140 00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:15,319 Speaker 9: that online safety is important. That's why TikTok has over 1141 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:19,239 Speaker 9: fifty pre set safety and privacy settings, and beyond that, 1142 00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:21,880 Speaker 9: parents can set up family pairing to help shape their 1143 00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:25,120 Speaker 9: teens experience on the app. With family pairing, parents can 1144 00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:28,880 Speaker 9: get visibility into their teens followers and who they follow, 1145 00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:31,560 Speaker 9: help restrict content that's not right for them, and set 1146 00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:35,239 Speaker 9: screen time limits. Parents can also set restricted times so 1147 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,160 Speaker 9: they're not on TikTok when they shouldn't be, because feeling 1148 00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:40,959 Speaker 9: good about the time your teen spends online shouldn't come 1149 00:53:41,080 --> 00:53:43,200 Speaker 9: with guess work. In addition to the already built in 1150 00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:46,920 Speaker 9: safety and privacy protections, family pairing gives parents more tools 1151 00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:50,520 Speaker 9: to shape their teen's online experience based on what's right 1152 00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:54,400 Speaker 9: for their family. Remember when safety comes first, discovery and 1153 00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:58,120 Speaker 9: creativity can follow.

I mean, 1163 00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:25,320 Speaker 2: unless you're gonna, are you gonna ask me something I 1164 00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:25,799 Speaker 2: would say? 1165 00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:28,480 Speaker 3: I would say, I'm Blake and I have gotten into 1166 00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:30,520 Speaker 3: this before. I don't know where you're going, but Blake 1167 00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:32,520 Speaker 3: and I have gotten this before, and we have discovered 1168 00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:34,640 Speaker 3: that he is much more of an absolutist than I 1169 00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:35,120 Speaker 3: am on it. 1170 00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:37,880 Speaker 13: Okay, Well, how do you feel about the President of 1171 00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:41,440 Speaker 13: the United States tweeting out he's celebrating the death of 1172 00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:44,399 Speaker 13: a US citizen, Robert Mueller, just the other day. 1173 00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:46,160 Speaker 2: I don't care for it is a free speech. I 1174 00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:50,120 Speaker 2: don't care for it. I think what I will say is. 1175 00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:54,840 Speaker 5: When we had Charlie Charlie's memorial right here, one of 1176 00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:57,000 Speaker 5: the best moments of it was it took a lot 1177 00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:00,239 Speaker 5: of bravery. Erica went up there and she said, on 1178 00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:04,280 Speaker 5: stage in front of seventy thousand people in that building 1179 00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:06,600 Speaker 5: and who knows how many millions watching around the world, 1180 00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:09,560 Speaker 5: and she says, that man who killed my husband, I 1181 00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:12,479 Speaker 5: forgive him. And then a few minutes later, Donald Trump 1182 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:14,400 Speaker 5: went up there and he said, yeah, you know, I 1183 00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 5: don't forgive my enemies. 1184 00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:18,879 Speaker 2: I hate him, I hate my enemies. I'm happy when 1185 00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:20,360 Speaker 2: bad things happen to them. 1186 00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:24,360 Speaker 3: We kind of know what we're what he then added, 1187 00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:26,560 Speaker 3: but maybe Erica could change my mind. 1188 00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 2: Maybe yes he did, Yes he did. 1189 00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:32,280 Speaker 5: I think it is I would say Donald Trump, anyone 1190 00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:35,160 Speaker 5: would admit, even as supporters will admit, he has traits 1191 00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:39,960 Speaker 5: they like and traits they care for less. And the 1192 00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:44,439 Speaker 5: president's tendency to dump on people, you know, after they've 1193 00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:47,080 Speaker 5: deceased is not one I personally care for. 1194 00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:51,920 Speaker 13: So you would be fine with the you know, people saying, oh, 1195 00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:54,200 Speaker 13: I'm glad that Hitler is dead. I'm glad that we 1196 00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:58,279 Speaker 13: are currently bombing I ran and killing the Ayatola. Or 1197 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,560 Speaker 13: when Charlie Kirk died, people were celebrating. 1198 00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:04,440 Speaker 5: I mean, people absolutely had the legal right to celebrate it. 1199 00:56:04,480 --> 00:56:08,000 Speaker 5: I found it incredibly loathsome, not just because he was 1200 00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:10,440 Speaker 5: a good man and a father, but also like especially 1201 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:12,840 Speaker 5: the heinous way in which he was killed, to celebrate 1202 00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 5: it when someone. 1203 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:16,840 Speaker 2: Is murdered, not just murdered, but murdered. 1204 00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:19,000 Speaker 5: While at a you know, at a table like this 1205 00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:23,520 Speaker 5: one holding a free speech event, specifically because of his speech. 1206 00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:26,960 Speaker 5: I think it was exceptionally evil that people would do that, 1207 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:31,360 Speaker 5: but I do think they have the legal right to 1208 00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:33,120 Speaker 5: do it. I don't think you should go to prison 1209 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:33,719 Speaker 5: for doing it. 1210 00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:36,880 Speaker 2: You mean for the speech, for the speech? Yes, okay, 1211 00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:42,760 Speaker 2: thank you, thank you. I feel like my chair is shrinking. 1212 00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:44,960 Speaker 5: I like, you know, I like it when I know 1213 00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:48,320 Speaker 5: people have opinions that I that I dislike and. 1214 00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:49,640 Speaker 2: The best way, But that's different. 1215 00:56:49,640 --> 00:56:52,080 Speaker 3: The first Amendment, that's first amendment is is a different, 1216 00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:53,040 Speaker 3: different question. 1217 00:56:53,400 --> 00:56:59,400 Speaker 2: What's your name? Oady George? Doing very well, doing lovely awesome. 1218 00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:02,840 Speaker 2: I'm from Fresnoe, California. If any of you guys know 1219 00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:08,160 Speaker 2: where that is the valley? Oh yeah. 1220 00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:12,240 Speaker 14: Obviously California has a stereotype of being a very blue state, 1221 00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:16,320 Speaker 14: which it is. And in California, of course, there is 1222 00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:20,560 Speaker 14: a lot of illegals just in general. Now, A lot 1223 00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:23,120 Speaker 14: of that is due to the agriculture it is there. 1224 00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:26,520 Speaker 14: So I do assume that you guys are for deportation 1225 00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:28,160 Speaker 14: of all illegals. Correct. 1226 00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:30,000 Speaker 2: Okay, So my question is. 1227 00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:34,680 Speaker 14: If this amount of illegals that do do this labor 1228 00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,280 Speaker 14: to farm work every sing because I'm not doing it. 1229 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:40,880 Speaker 14: If someone has a high school diploma, you're not doing it. 1230 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:43,560 Speaker 14: What is your solution for that? Then, if you're to get. 1231 00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:47,400 Speaker 3: Rid of them all, broadly speaking, automation, bring in robotics, 1232 00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:50,040 Speaker 3: bring in you know, get giddy law musque on that 1233 00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:51,960 Speaker 3: or whoever the next robotics guy is. 1234 00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:54,360 Speaker 2: I mean, you look at some of the auto pickers 1235 00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:56,320 Speaker 2: in the auto you. 1236 00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:59,800 Speaker 3: Know, autonomous robotics that we have now, I mean, my gosh, 1237 00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:02,920 Speaker 3: if we have AI drones that can find people on 1238 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:05,640 Speaker 3: the other side of the planet, I'm pretty sure we 1239 00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:07,920 Speaker 3: can find something that can find an apple or an orange. 1240 00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:12,600 Speaker 5: So let ourselves get addicted to low cost foreign labor. 1241 00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:15,840 Speaker 5: And like other addictions, there is a short term high 1242 00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:16,720 Speaker 5: you get from it. 1243 00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:19,120 Speaker 2: It saves you money. Let's you make more money in 1244 00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:19,960 Speaker 2: the short term. 1245 00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:22,840 Speaker 5: But the damage is long term financially, and it's just 1246 00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:26,400 Speaker 5: long term on the country. So yeah, a farmer might 1247 00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:28,800 Speaker 5: have been able to run their business better, but that's 1248 00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:32,960 Speaker 5: still not worth it. If it's degrading America's respect for 1249 00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:36,200 Speaker 5: the rule of law, if it's degrading our national cohesion 1250 00:58:36,560 --> 00:58:39,160 Speaker 5: because we don't all speak the same language, if we're 1251 00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:43,120 Speaker 5: offloading the trouble of maybe they'd be on welfare, or 1252 00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:45,880 Speaker 5: they're expensive to educate, or they use a lot of healthcare. 1253 00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:48,840 Speaker 5: All of those things are getting offloaded onto the public system. 1254 00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:51,480 Speaker 5: But we're letting all of this happen because we've gotten 1255 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:56,280 Speaker 5: addicted to lower cost labor. Economically, I think we have 1256 00:58:56,320 --> 00:58:59,200 Speaker 5: to treat it as an addiction, and sometimes you basically 1257 00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:01,320 Speaker 5: have to go cold term. And I'd be the first 1258 00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:05,200 Speaker 5: to admit there will be economic difficulties that come from this, 1259 00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:08,720 Speaker 5: but you the difficulties would be less if we had 1260 00:59:08,760 --> 00:59:11,800 Speaker 5: taken action longer ago in the past, and the difficulties 1261 00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:14,320 Speaker 5: will be even greater if we wait too long to 1262 00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:15,120 Speaker 5: do something about it. 1263 00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:15,360 Speaker 2: Now. 1264 00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:17,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I was just gonna add Economically, you have a 1265 00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:22,600 Speaker 3: similar dynamic to the invention of the cotton gen in 1266 00:59:22,600 --> 00:59:25,040 Speaker 3: in you know, pre Civil War that in pre Civil 1267 00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:28,120 Speaker 3: War South, that the cotton gin had already been invented, 1268 00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:30,760 Speaker 3: and yet you didn't see the widespread adoption of it 1269 00:59:30,960 --> 00:59:34,200 Speaker 3: because of the system of slavery. And even though the 1270 00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:38,400 Speaker 3: cotton gen ended up becoming far more, far more efficient 1271 00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:42,840 Speaker 3: and obviously cheaper run than having you know, wide fields 1272 00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:46,000 Speaker 3: of workers doing this for you, that because that was 1273 00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:48,600 Speaker 3: the system in place, you know, obviously, you know there's 1274 00:59:48,680 --> 00:59:51,520 Speaker 3: war over it ETCA, we know the history, but in 1275 00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:55,600 Speaker 3: fact there was a system similar to automation technology that 1276 00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:58,000 Speaker 3: had come out that could have actually filled that gap, 1277 00:59:58,320 --> 00:59:59,560 Speaker 3: but for people wanting to do it. 1278 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:03,280 Speaker 5: Rule I think of a lot is that in China 1279 01:00:03,360 --> 01:00:07,200 Speaker 5: you can now find guys who they are working in 1280 01:00:07,240 --> 01:00:10,280 Speaker 5: an office building and they have a robot driven tractor 1281 01:00:10,320 --> 01:00:11,640 Speaker 5: and they're doing it all in this you know. 1282 01:00:11,680 --> 01:00:12,360 Speaker 2: Their air conditioning. 1283 01:00:13,280 --> 01:00:18,120 Speaker 5: Look, Steve Bennon's going meanwhile, And meanwhile in the US 1284 01:00:18,160 --> 01:00:21,240 Speaker 5: you can find there are some farms where their tractors 1285 01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:22,880 Speaker 5: don't even have a cabin on the top. 1286 01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:25,800 Speaker 2: You're up there in the sun all day. 1287 01:00:25,680 --> 01:00:27,840 Speaker 5: Having it beat down on you. You don't even have 1288 01:00:27,880 --> 01:00:30,600 Speaker 5: a roof over your head. And when I see that image, 1289 01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:32,120 Speaker 5: all I can think is, does have to just be 1290 01:00:32,640 --> 01:00:36,560 Speaker 5: illegal immigrant or otherwise low paid migrant farm workers where 1291 01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:39,520 Speaker 5: it's just there's no value add to making their lives 1292 01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:42,000 Speaker 5: any better. And by the way, you're correct, this would 1293 01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:43,240 Speaker 5: be automation. 1294 01:00:43,320 --> 01:00:45,440 Speaker 2: This would be something where I would be totally okay. 1295 01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:47,280 Speaker 3: You know, I know I'm supposed to be like mister 1296 01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:50,000 Speaker 3: conservative or whatever, but I'd be totally okay with the 1297 01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:54,760 Speaker 3: government coming in and providing subsidies to these farms to 1298 01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:57,400 Speaker 3: you know, help them get over because obviously there's gonna 1299 01:00:57,400 --> 01:01:00,480 Speaker 3: be significant capital input during this period. 1300 01:01:00,560 --> 01:01:01,800 Speaker 2: I'd be totally fine with. 1301 01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:04,600 Speaker 3: I mean, farmers get subjeties already, so it's not like 1302 01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:06,960 Speaker 3: it would be a huge change. But having an additional 1303 01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:11,360 Speaker 3: implement for them to encourage automation and so that they're 1304 01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:13,400 Speaker 3: not you know, having to spend tons and tons of 1305 01:01:13,400 --> 01:01:15,800 Speaker 3: money to be able to do that, but upgrade through automation' 1306 01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:19,320 Speaker 3: that's I think it's going to happen either way, And honestly, 1307 01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:23,560 Speaker 3: I think it's this massive migrant labor force that's here 1308 01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:24,960 Speaker 3: is really the only thing stopping it. 1309 01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:29,000 Speaker 14: Yeah, but also like automation and like a perfect world, 1310 01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:32,480 Speaker 14: of course everything that should be automated as possible, people 1311 01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:36,400 Speaker 14: doing dangerous jobs, whatever, but that cost comes back into farmers, 1312 01:01:36,520 --> 01:01:39,040 Speaker 14: farmers who are already struggling to get end me And 1313 01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:40,040 Speaker 14: you're right, but that's. 1314 01:01:39,920 --> 01:01:40,320 Speaker 2: What I'm saying. 1315 01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:42,880 Speaker 3: I think there could be I would be I would 1316 01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:44,120 Speaker 3: support social programs for that. 1317 01:01:44,240 --> 01:01:48,400 Speaker 5: Right now, we're subsidizing healthcare for these illegal immigrants, for 1318 01:01:48,480 --> 01:01:50,080 Speaker 5: subsidizing the education. 1319 01:01:49,800 --> 01:01:50,960 Speaker 2: For these illegal immigrants. 1320 01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:53,880 Speaker 5: A lot of them, their children are eligible for welfare, 1321 01:01:53,920 --> 01:01:57,000 Speaker 5: and so effectively they're on welfare. Imagine if all the 1322 01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:59,400 Speaker 5: money that's going to that was instead put into a 1323 01:01:59,440 --> 01:02:02,040 Speaker 5: giant bun and we took it to a Silicon Valley 1324 01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:04,400 Speaker 5: firm and said, figure out how this tractor can run itself, 1325 01:02:05,240 --> 01:02:05,760 Speaker 5: and we could. 1326 01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:09,680 Speaker 14: And I don't know anything about the welfare side and 1327 01:02:09,720 --> 01:02:10,040 Speaker 14: all of that. 1328 01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:11,320 Speaker 2: I'm not going to pretend like. 1329 01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:13,520 Speaker 14: I know when you said, all I know is is 1330 01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:16,479 Speaker 14: that it's already a struggle for farmers in general. People 1331 01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:19,560 Speaker 14: are already stop wanting to be farmers in general. Like 1332 01:02:19,720 --> 01:02:24,400 Speaker 14: Fresno State ad capital of California, so much ad goes 1333 01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:26,960 Speaker 14: through that there's less and less people who want to 1334 01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:29,880 Speaker 14: do that stuff because the profit margins are sained. So 1335 01:02:30,080 --> 01:02:33,800 Speaker 14: if we just take away these illegal immigrants, there is 1336 01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:34,880 Speaker 14: no more labor for that. 1337 01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:37,840 Speaker 2: And you, I'm not doing it, You're not. Anybody's not. 1338 01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:39,120 Speaker 12: No. 1339 01:02:39,560 --> 01:02:41,760 Speaker 3: I c clearly agree with you that that farmers absolutely 1340 01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:43,800 Speaker 3: do need to be supported because if you have a 1341 01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:46,800 Speaker 3: country they can't feed itself, then guess what. Let's you know, 1342 01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:49,000 Speaker 3: we were just talking about war and things like that. 1343 01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:52,080 Speaker 3: That actually is a national security issue, among other things, 1344 01:02:52,320 --> 01:02:54,840 Speaker 3: because if that system breaks down, guess what, Now you 1345 01:02:54,840 --> 01:02:57,040 Speaker 3: can't feed your army. Now you can't feed your your 1346 01:02:57,040 --> 01:03:00,400 Speaker 3: defense forces. Is a huge, huge problem. So I agree 1347 01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:03,640 Speaker 3: with you, and it's something where you know, I think 1348 01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:07,000 Speaker 3: that you know, I think that the big factory farming 1349 01:03:07,080 --> 01:03:10,280 Speaker 3: is something that has has also in addition, become an 1350 01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:12,800 Speaker 3: issue with small farmers as well, because it's pushing them 1351 01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:16,040 Speaker 3: out in many cases, and it leads to outcomes that 1352 01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:18,960 Speaker 3: are good friends in the Moham movement would tell us 1353 01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:21,680 Speaker 3: are very unhealthy as well for Americans. So I feel 1354 01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:23,840 Speaker 3: like I feel like there's a lot of room for 1355 01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:28,080 Speaker 3: discussion on this issue, and I would be totally open 1356 01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:31,720 Speaker 3: to helping out. I really would awesome. One more question, 1357 01:03:32,160 --> 01:03:34,760 Speaker 3: small question, just because don't know other people would like 1358 01:03:34,800 --> 01:03:37,560 Speaker 3: to speak. Why do you guys think the way you think? 1359 01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:39,440 Speaker 3: Like we brought up this way. 1360 01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:42,520 Speaker 14: Did somebody tell you, like, hey, you should come to 1361 01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:45,360 Speaker 14: this club and hear what these people are thinking? 1362 01:03:45,440 --> 01:03:47,600 Speaker 2: Like what happened with me to be? My parents are 1363 01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:49,200 Speaker 2: wingers and I've always been a winger. 1364 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:51,480 Speaker 3: No, it was weird, like when I was born, my 1365 01:03:51,600 --> 01:03:54,240 Speaker 3: dad just put Rush Limbaugh in my crib and no, 1366 01:03:54,240 --> 01:04:00,680 Speaker 3: I'm just kidding. And that No, honestly, I couldn't tell 1367 01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:02,760 Speaker 3: you it just it just you know, neither of my 1368 01:04:02,800 --> 01:04:06,320 Speaker 3: parents were particularly political. They were both registered Democrats at 1369 01:04:06,320 --> 01:04:10,560 Speaker 3: one point, and you know, I could get into a 1370 01:04:10,600 --> 01:04:15,240 Speaker 3: longer story about it. But my town, our hometown, my 1371 01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:18,600 Speaker 3: family's hometown got kind of overrun by crime as I 1372 01:04:18,680 --> 01:04:21,040 Speaker 3: was growing up, and so I sort of lived through 1373 01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:26,760 Speaker 3: the loss of a close knit community where the kids 1374 01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:30,360 Speaker 3: that I grew up with were the sons of the 1375 01:04:30,440 --> 01:04:33,040 Speaker 3: guys that my dad grew up with. And I lived 1376 01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:34,720 Speaker 3: in the same house that my father grew up in 1377 01:04:34,760 --> 01:04:37,800 Speaker 3: and his father had been in, and we'd lost all 1378 01:04:37,840 --> 01:04:40,919 Speaker 3: of that because of crime, because of Section eight, and 1379 01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:42,760 Speaker 3: by the way, it was also turned into a sanctuary 1380 01:04:42,760 --> 01:04:46,320 Speaker 3: city for illegals. And I don't know, I think it 1381 01:04:46,360 --> 01:04:51,400 Speaker 3: was that process of losing all of that that, you know, 1382 01:04:51,480 --> 01:04:53,920 Speaker 3: really just played a huge role in sort of my 1383 01:04:53,960 --> 01:04:54,640 Speaker 3: self formation. 1384 01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:57,280 Speaker 2: If you will, Where are you from Norshal, Pennsylvania? 1385 01:04:57,360 --> 01:04:57,480 Speaker 15: Oh? 1386 01:04:58,320 --> 01:04:59,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, to add a. 1387 01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:02,000 Speaker 5: Little bit, just because it might be relevant. So I 1388 01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:04,960 Speaker 5: guess the reason I wouldn't just rebel against my parents 1389 01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:06,000 Speaker 5: the way some people do. 1390 01:05:06,120 --> 01:05:06,640 Speaker 2: I think it. 1391 01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:09,600 Speaker 5: Mattered a lot that my parents could explain what they 1392 01:05:09,600 --> 01:05:12,640 Speaker 5: believed to some extent. I do remember my dad explain 1393 01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:15,040 Speaker 5: to me that democrats take money from the people who 1394 01:05:15,080 --> 01:05:16,800 Speaker 5: earn it and give it to the people who don't. 1395 01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:20,680 Speaker 2: He made my sister recite that, but he could explain it. 1396 01:05:20,720 --> 01:05:23,080 Speaker 5: But then also that they really you could see every 1397 01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:26,200 Speaker 5: day that this, you know, for example, we were religious 1398 01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:27,440 Speaker 5: and went to church. I think a lot of people 1399 01:05:27,480 --> 01:05:29,960 Speaker 5: grow up in houses where, you know, maybe their parents 1400 01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:32,040 Speaker 5: will tell them you can't do that, or you know, 1401 01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:34,480 Speaker 5: their parents will say they're Christian, but they've never seen 1402 01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:37,920 Speaker 5: their parents go to church, for example, that it mattered 1403 01:05:37,960 --> 01:05:40,640 Speaker 5: to my parents that we go every week, that you 1404 01:05:40,680 --> 01:05:43,880 Speaker 5: live your life accordingly, and I think, say, seeing your 1405 01:05:43,920 --> 01:05:48,320 Speaker 5: parents be consistent about the values they hold and then 1406 01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:50,320 Speaker 5: you know, be pillars of their community and all of that, 1407 01:05:50,360 --> 01:05:54,800 Speaker 5: which my parents are, that's what keeps That's certainly what 1408 01:05:54,880 --> 01:05:58,440 Speaker 5: kept me from feeling any big temptation to just overthrow 1409 01:05:58,480 --> 01:06:00,320 Speaker 5: that or throw it out, because I could see my 1410 01:06:00,400 --> 01:06:02,320 Speaker 5: parents were great people, and. 1411 01:06:02,440 --> 01:06:04,400 Speaker 2: So let's let that be a lesson to all of 1412 01:06:04,480 --> 01:06:07,360 Speaker 2: us that've met. Blake's parents are pretty cool.

You know, 1431 01:07:04,200 --> 01:07:05,920 Speaker 3: we all woke up one day and found that President 1432 01:07:05,960 --> 01:07:09,280 Speaker 3: Trump had arrested the leader of Venezuela, as you do, 1433 01:07:09,720 --> 01:07:10,760 Speaker 3: and and that. 1434 01:07:10,680 --> 01:07:13,120 Speaker 2: He had been extradited to the United States. He's in 1435 01:07:13,160 --> 01:07:16,040 Speaker 2: New York. He's now, you know, standing trial. 1436 01:07:16,400 --> 01:07:19,200 Speaker 3: But I remember saying that day, and I think I 1437 01:07:19,240 --> 01:07:21,120 Speaker 3: tweeted this, I said, is it really regime change if 1438 01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:23,840 Speaker 3: you just get rid of one guy? Because what's interesting 1439 01:07:23,840 --> 01:07:28,040 Speaker 3: in Venezuela is that the regime does still largely, you know, 1440 01:07:28,120 --> 01:07:30,720 Speaker 3: remain in place. It is still intact. It's just that 1441 01:07:30,800 --> 01:07:34,120 Speaker 3: one guy has left. Dlsea Rodriguez is still kind of 1442 01:07:34,120 --> 01:07:36,720 Speaker 3: on top of that. Stephen Miller was, you know, kind 1443 01:07:36,720 --> 01:07:38,880 Speaker 3: of pressed about this when he went on with Jake 1444 01:07:38,920 --> 01:07:42,360 Speaker 3: Taper on CNN and and they because because Taper was saying, 1445 01:07:42,400 --> 01:07:44,320 Speaker 3: you know, are you going to do elections? 1446 01:07:44,360 --> 01:07:45,680 Speaker 2: Are you gonna hold this, You're gonna have that? 1447 01:07:45,720 --> 01:07:47,960 Speaker 3: And Steven said, no, no, we're we're not going to 1448 01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:50,320 Speaker 3: change any of that. We are arresting one guy and 1449 01:07:50,360 --> 01:07:51,720 Speaker 3: we're going to leave it out. And I thought that 1450 01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:56,160 Speaker 3: was an interesting in between model, because you know, you're 1451 01:07:56,280 --> 01:07:58,080 Speaker 3: you know, I think what you're getting at is this question, 1452 01:07:58,240 --> 01:08:00,240 Speaker 3: are we going to have these regime change wars Iraq 1453 01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:02,040 Speaker 3: in Afghanistan like we saw in the past, which I 1454 01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:05,920 Speaker 3: think many people rightly view as disastrous as wasteful, not 1455 01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:08,240 Speaker 3: just in terms of time and money, but also in 1456 01:08:08,320 --> 01:08:11,320 Speaker 3: terms of American lives and the lives of the locals, 1457 01:08:11,360 --> 01:08:16,400 Speaker 3: which you know, arguably we're not bettered in any regard 1458 01:08:16,479 --> 01:08:21,439 Speaker 3: to this. I found it interesting, you know, too early 1459 01:08:21,479 --> 01:08:24,080 Speaker 3: to tell. I suppose you know, it just happened in 1460 01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:26,640 Speaker 3: terms of Venezuela. Now, I'm not going to dodge the 1461 01:08:26,640 --> 01:08:28,160 Speaker 3: other questions. I just wanted to say that I thought 1462 01:08:28,160 --> 01:08:30,920 Speaker 3: that was an interesting in between. Now whether or not 1463 01:08:31,040 --> 01:08:36,080 Speaker 3: there will be other in between Cuba you mentioned, although 1464 01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:38,240 Speaker 3: it does look like something very you know, very soon 1465 01:08:38,280 --> 01:08:40,439 Speaker 3: will happen in Cuba, and then Iran is kind of 1466 01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:41,080 Speaker 3: the bigger question. 1467 01:08:41,120 --> 01:08:42,559 Speaker 2: Do you want to take the Iran start on that? 1468 01:08:42,720 --> 01:08:45,519 Speaker 5: Well, I mean Iran, it's I think you pointed out 1469 01:08:45,560 --> 01:08:48,799 Speaker 5: a good point, which is there's that split that President 1470 01:08:48,800 --> 01:08:52,000 Speaker 5: Trump has embraced that there's a difference between regime change 1471 01:08:52,240 --> 01:08:57,080 Speaker 5: and nation building because nation building is what transition. Yeah, 1472 01:08:57,479 --> 01:09:00,880 Speaker 5: nation building is what got us in all these disastrous 1473 01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:04,759 Speaker 5: conflicts that were very, very long. They had open ended, 1474 01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:07,280 Speaker 5: non existent victory conditions. Oh, you know, we'll stay in 1475 01:09:07,280 --> 01:09:09,600 Speaker 5: Afghanistan until we win. What does winning look like? 1476 01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:10,200 Speaker 2: We don't know. 1477 01:09:10,920 --> 01:09:13,720 Speaker 5: And because it required a lot of Americans there, we 1478 01:09:13,840 --> 01:09:20,080 Speaker 5: lost thousands of American lives and the President has charted 1479 01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:22,719 Speaker 5: out a different path, where he says, I don't actually 1480 01:09:22,720 --> 01:09:24,880 Speaker 5: care about the nation building part of it. I care 1481 01:09:24,920 --> 01:09:28,800 Speaker 5: about having friendlier governments that are more accommodating to us 1482 01:09:29,080 --> 01:09:32,040 Speaker 5: instead of these hostile ones that are sending drugs or 1483 01:09:32,040 --> 01:09:37,200 Speaker 5: constantly flaring up crises in their region. Now, on the 1484 01:09:37,240 --> 01:09:38,519 Speaker 5: specific Iran thing. 1485 01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:41,599 Speaker 2: I think we warned, we've been very. 1486 01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:44,360 Speaker 5: Cautious about that one, that there's a lot of reasons 1487 01:09:44,400 --> 01:09:49,360 Speaker 5: to be skeptical of escalating our involvement in Iran. Charlie 1488 01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:52,200 Speaker 5: warned that about that a lot. I share his concerns 1489 01:09:52,240 --> 01:09:55,160 Speaker 5: about that. What I would say about the President and 1490 01:09:55,200 --> 01:09:58,519 Speaker 5: this particular decision he made is we've been around the 1491 01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:01,160 Speaker 5: block a few times with the President Trump, specifically on Iran. 1492 01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:03,599 Speaker 5: We had a war scare in twenty nineteen when they 1493 01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:06,000 Speaker 5: I think they shot down one of our robots, and 1494 01:10:06,040 --> 01:10:08,719 Speaker 5: then in twenty twenty after Solo Money, and then last 1495 01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:13,439 Speaker 5: summer with the midnight hammer bombing, and every single time 1496 01:10:13,479 --> 01:10:16,720 Speaker 5: people thought, oh man, Donald Trump is escalating, He's going 1497 01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:19,000 Speaker 5: to plunge us into a war, and every single time 1498 01:10:19,560 --> 01:10:22,760 Speaker 5: he pulled back and nothing came of it. And the 1499 01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:25,680 Speaker 5: fact that he chose differently this time, I think we 1500 01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:30,200 Speaker 5: should entertain the possibility that he had a very good 1501 01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:32,840 Speaker 5: reason for doing that, And we'll know more when it's all. 1502 01:10:32,760 --> 01:10:35,719 Speaker 2: Said and done. For now, the war did begin. 1503 01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:39,000 Speaker 5: The I support the US winning wars once we're in them, 1504 01:10:40,160 --> 01:10:42,960 Speaker 5: but there's of course room to debate it and question it, 1505 01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:44,920 Speaker 5: and I think we'll have that fully hashed out in 1506 01:10:44,960 --> 01:10:45,719 Speaker 5: the weeks to come. 1507 01:10:47,040 --> 01:10:49,439 Speaker 16: All Right, I just want to touch on Venezuela for 1508 01:10:49,479 --> 01:10:51,840 Speaker 16: a second. I did also find it very interesting how 1509 01:10:51,880 --> 01:10:54,040 Speaker 16: we didn't really change any regime in Iran and we 1510 01:10:54,120 --> 01:10:55,000 Speaker 16: just kind of changed it. 1511 01:10:54,960 --> 01:10:57,360 Speaker 2: From a Venezuela leaving it or ven as will. 1512 01:10:57,439 --> 01:11:01,200 Speaker 16: Yeah, we just changed it from a Chinese dictatorship, a 1513 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:04,640 Speaker 16: Chinese backed dictatorship, to like an American backed one because. 1514 01:11:04,400 --> 01:11:07,639 Speaker 2: We just brought in the VP. I think Delia forgot 1515 01:11:07,640 --> 01:11:12,519 Speaker 2: her name, del Rodriguez. Yeah, my bat No, you're you're 1516 01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:13,400 Speaker 2: great man. It's great. 1517 01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:16,519 Speaker 16: And do you think because I know people have been 1518 01:11:16,520 --> 01:11:19,920 Speaker 16: talking about it, the Department of War has been uh, 1519 01:11:20,120 --> 01:11:24,360 Speaker 16: the question has been raised about like a troop invasion 1520 01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:25,760 Speaker 16: of carg Island on. 1521 01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:28,320 Speaker 17: The straight of horror moves. 1522 01:11:28,760 --> 01:11:31,240 Speaker 16: Would that be a step too far in terms of 1523 01:11:31,400 --> 01:11:32,639 Speaker 16: American foreign policy? 1524 01:11:33,720 --> 01:11:35,280 Speaker 2: Well, I mean step too far is is. 1525 01:11:35,520 --> 01:11:38,479 Speaker 3: You know, it depends on whether you mean in terms 1526 01:11:38,520 --> 01:11:40,680 Speaker 3: of political opinion, depends on whether or not you mean 1527 01:11:40,920 --> 01:11:44,799 Speaker 3: in terms of military operation. In terms of military operation, 1528 01:11:44,880 --> 01:11:46,719 Speaker 3: Could the United States do it? Yes, the United States 1529 01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:48,920 Speaker 3: could do it. Would it be easy to hold? No, 1530 01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:50,760 Speaker 3: would not be easy to hold because it's in within 1531 01:11:50,880 --> 01:11:55,879 Speaker 3: it's within conventional artillery range of the of Iran proper, 1532 01:11:55,920 --> 01:11:56,759 Speaker 3: so of the mainland. 1533 01:11:56,840 --> 01:11:57,960 Speaker 2: So I mean they could. 1534 01:11:58,080 --> 01:12:00,920 Speaker 3: You wouldn't even need miss I mean obviously the have 1535 01:12:00,960 --> 01:12:04,160 Speaker 3: thrones as well, but conventional artillery would be able to 1536 01:12:04,280 --> 01:12:06,040 Speaker 3: range whatever those forces are, So it would be hard 1537 01:12:06,040 --> 01:12:06,280 Speaker 3: to hold. 1538 01:12:06,320 --> 01:12:07,400 Speaker 2: You has to be very hard to hold. 1539 01:12:07,560 --> 01:12:09,880 Speaker 3: I've actually outlined, and I've said this number of times 1540 01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:13,120 Speaker 3: Fox News and other places that I've been that you 1541 01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:17,400 Speaker 3: actually wouldn't necessarily if your goal is to neutralize Carg 1542 01:12:17,400 --> 01:12:19,840 Speaker 3: Island and control Carg Island in terms of bottle up 1543 01:12:19,840 --> 01:12:22,719 Speaker 3: the oil flow out of there, then there are numerous 1544 01:12:22,760 --> 01:12:26,559 Speaker 3: ways to do that that don't involve boats on the ground. Obviously, 1545 01:12:26,560 --> 01:12:29,400 Speaker 3: cyber warfare is something the United States has been perfecting. 1546 01:12:29,840 --> 01:12:30,960 Speaker 2: Was used in Venezuela. 1547 01:12:31,200 --> 01:12:33,280 Speaker 3: I mean, anything that's got a computer in it, you 1548 01:12:33,320 --> 01:12:35,360 Speaker 3: turn it off and then immediately, Guess what if those 1549 01:12:35,439 --> 01:12:37,680 Speaker 3: ships can't load and unload, Guess you just stopped the 1550 01:12:37,680 --> 01:12:39,960 Speaker 3: oil flow and without a single boot on the ground. Also, 1551 01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:42,439 Speaker 3: as a Navy guy, I have to say that also 1552 01:12:42,600 --> 01:12:46,120 Speaker 3: if you take out the piers, then again the ships. 1553 01:12:45,800 --> 01:12:47,559 Speaker 2: Don't have the ability to load and unload. 1554 01:12:47,800 --> 01:12:51,160 Speaker 3: But the larger oil infrastructure is still in you know, 1555 01:12:51,360 --> 01:12:54,280 Speaker 3: still intact and could be you know, fixed at a 1556 01:12:54,360 --> 01:12:58,479 Speaker 3: later date. So there are numerous options available. And when 1557 01:12:58,479 --> 01:13:00,280 Speaker 3: it comes to this, you know, I think we have 1558 01:13:00,320 --> 01:13:01,840 Speaker 3: to see whether or not the president is using this 1559 01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:04,679 Speaker 3: just to you know, he's obviously he's obviously deploying troops. 1560 01:13:04,680 --> 01:13:05,720 Speaker 2: There's no question about that. 1561 01:13:05,800 --> 01:13:08,720 Speaker 3: We have two marine expeditory units and he used about 1562 01:13:08,720 --> 01:13:11,559 Speaker 3: twenty five hundred each that are headed over. There's some 1563 01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:15,280 Speaker 3: indications that some other special forces units eighty second Airborne 1564 01:13:15,280 --> 01:13:18,040 Speaker 3: another may have been called up. We'll see, you know, 1565 01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:20,240 Speaker 3: we'll certainly see what the plan is. To Blake's point, 1566 01:13:21,080 --> 01:13:23,439 Speaker 3: we've seen the president push and push and push to 1567 01:13:23,560 --> 01:13:26,479 Speaker 3: the brink and then get to a desired end state 1568 01:13:26,560 --> 01:13:30,519 Speaker 3: and pull back. And part of me thinks that we're 1569 01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:33,320 Speaker 3: probably going to see something like that again. And look, 1570 01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:36,519 Speaker 3: we saw the president this morning, he's talking about partial 1571 01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:39,920 Speaker 3: cease fire and talking about actual conversations that are going on, 1572 01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:44,280 Speaker 3: possibly indirectly with Iranian leadership, and Iran says. 1573 01:13:44,040 --> 01:13:45,519 Speaker 2: Well, there are no talks, and it's like, well no. 1574 01:13:45,479 --> 01:13:47,879 Speaker 3: Because he's talking to the Egyptians and then the Egyptians 1575 01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:49,960 Speaker 3: are called you know, that kind of thing is going on, 1576 01:13:50,120 --> 01:13:53,040 Speaker 3: and so I broadly would be very supportive of a 1577 01:13:53,080 --> 01:13:53,479 Speaker 3: deal in this. 1578 01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:57,040 Speaker 2: Really, let's see if we can get at least two 1579 01:13:57,080 --> 01:14:00,080 Speaker 2: more I think are we are we on time? How 1580 01:14:00,080 --> 01:14:04,559 Speaker 2: are we doing on time? Guys? We got all thirty minutes? 1581 01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:07,400 Speaker 2: All right, well, yeah, let's let's we'll do them. But 1582 01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:09,400 Speaker 2: then we'll try to keep them shorter. Thank you very much, 1583 01:14:09,400 --> 01:14:11,760 Speaker 2: by the way, will and we'll keep our answers shorter 1584 01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:18,720 Speaker 2: into Ahdi. What's your name? Hi? I'm Leila, Hi, Leila La? 1585 01:14:18,840 --> 01:14:21,880 Speaker 2: What's your question? Sorry? 1586 01:14:21,880 --> 01:14:23,920 Speaker 12: I like did not come in here planning to ask 1587 01:14:23,920 --> 01:14:26,519 Speaker 12: a question. Sorry about it, kind of like really nervously 1588 01:14:26,560 --> 01:14:27,439 Speaker 12: sweating right now. 1589 01:14:28,479 --> 01:14:29,720 Speaker 2: You have nothing to be nerves here. 1590 01:14:29,760 --> 01:14:34,320 Speaker 12: You're doing fantastic anyways, I, like I said, I wasn't 1591 01:14:34,320 --> 01:14:37,760 Speaker 12: really planning on like asking anything. I just came here 1592 01:14:37,800 --> 01:14:41,720 Speaker 12: to gain some perspective. But something that you said, Jack 1593 01:14:41,840 --> 01:14:44,920 Speaker 12: intrigued me when you were asked when you're discussing like 1594 01:14:44,960 --> 01:14:49,519 Speaker 12: the future of agricultural labor and you're talking about things 1595 01:14:49,560 --> 01:14:53,840 Speaker 12: like AI based alternatives and automated systems. I am a 1596 01:14:53,880 --> 01:14:59,200 Speaker 12: graduate student in sustainability. I graduated with my Bachelors of 1597 01:14:59,240 --> 01:15:02,000 Speaker 12: Science and sustain ability as well, so I'm in a 1598 01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:07,200 Speaker 12: lot of like climate related spaces, I suppose, and even 1599 01:15:07,240 --> 01:15:09,920 Speaker 12: though I'm still only a student, I've been able to 1600 01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:14,280 Speaker 12: learn from some really incredible researchers and scientists and pioneers 1601 01:15:14,280 --> 01:15:16,800 Speaker 12: and all kinds of ecological related fields. 1602 01:15:17,280 --> 01:15:18,880 Speaker 2: So this is more of like a. 1603 01:15:18,880 --> 01:15:22,320 Speaker 12: General question, like you can answer in whatever way makes 1604 01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:26,240 Speaker 12: sense to you. But I was wondering what your general 1605 01:15:26,280 --> 01:15:29,280 Speaker 12: take on climate change is and how you think the 1606 01:15:29,320 --> 01:15:32,599 Speaker 12: current administration is handling it, and do you believe that 1607 01:15:32,640 --> 01:15:36,880 Speaker 12: the techno optimism perspective is a concrete enough solution to 1608 01:15:36,920 --> 01:15:39,360 Speaker 12: depend on in the future, even if we don't really 1609 01:15:39,439 --> 01:15:43,000 Speaker 12: know what that'll look like even ten years from now, 1610 01:15:43,080 --> 01:15:43,880 Speaker 12: much less fifty. 1611 01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:47,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, No, that great question. I would generally say I'm 1612 01:15:47,240 --> 01:15:50,320 Speaker 3: a techno optimist. Gen four nuclear power is something that 1613 01:15:50,320 --> 01:15:52,880 Speaker 3: I'm totally behind. I think it's great again, So I 1614 01:15:52,960 --> 01:15:55,599 Speaker 3: mentioned I shart in the Navy, and in the Navy 1615 01:15:55,680 --> 01:15:58,800 Speaker 3: we use Gen one nuclear power and Gen two and 1616 01:15:58,840 --> 01:16:01,400 Speaker 3: Gen three, and so we have we have such an 1617 01:16:01,439 --> 01:16:06,120 Speaker 3: experience of operating nuclear power plants, you know, on our ships, 1618 01:16:06,120 --> 01:16:07,480 Speaker 3: and so are so are submarines. 1619 01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:10,639 Speaker 2: Every single submarine the United States Navy has. I'm just sorrying 1620 01:16:10,600 --> 01:16:12,120 Speaker 2: from my background. So that's why I'm going there. 1621 01:16:12,920 --> 01:16:17,160 Speaker 12: That's so cool because like nuclear came from submarines. 1622 01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:20,840 Speaker 3: That's how Sorry Hymen Ricover, Yeah, yeah, sorry, no, you're 1623 01:16:20,960 --> 01:16:24,240 Speaker 3: fine on yeah. So, so it was it was Hymen Rickover, 1624 01:16:24,520 --> 01:16:28,200 Speaker 3: the incredible American officer who understood the nuclear Navy and 1625 01:16:28,240 --> 01:16:32,280 Speaker 3: the power of it because realizing that with with nuclear 1626 01:16:32,280 --> 01:16:35,920 Speaker 3: power on the ships and then the subs, eventually that 1627 01:16:36,120 --> 01:16:38,920 Speaker 3: you could essentially have a submarine that would stay or 1628 01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:41,680 Speaker 3: a ship that could stay on station indefinitely, and your 1629 01:16:41,720 --> 01:16:47,120 Speaker 3: only limit on that is actually the sailors. So food, 1630 01:16:47,200 --> 01:16:50,000 Speaker 3: you know, oxygen, et cetera, which, of course with AI 1631 01:16:50,360 --> 01:16:52,360 Speaker 3: is going to be the next you know, the next 1632 01:16:52,720 --> 01:16:53,519 Speaker 3: bridge that we cross. 1633 01:16:53,560 --> 01:16:54,479 Speaker 2: So we're going to get to the point. 1634 01:16:54,600 --> 01:16:56,720 Speaker 3: I think we're probably already at the point where I 1635 01:16:56,760 --> 01:16:59,400 Speaker 3: know they've said the last the last fighter pilot has 1636 01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:01,759 Speaker 3: already been born, or the last submarine or has probably 1637 01:17:01,800 --> 01:17:04,559 Speaker 3: already been born. It's it's it's just gonna happen. Same 1638 01:17:04,600 --> 01:17:08,240 Speaker 3: with you know, aircraft carriers as well. And so you 1639 01:17:08,720 --> 01:17:11,759 Speaker 3: we have such an experience with nuclear in the Navy, 1640 01:17:12,240 --> 01:17:14,360 Speaker 3: and a very safe experience, by the way, that I 1641 01:17:14,760 --> 01:17:17,960 Speaker 3: really do think that it's time to start getting gen 1642 01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:21,120 Speaker 3: for a nuclear power back into the mainland. 1643 01:17:21,560 --> 01:17:22,920 Speaker 2: And this is something. 1644 01:17:22,600 --> 01:17:25,479 Speaker 3: Where you know, obviously there's gonna be people who disagree 1645 01:17:25,640 --> 01:17:29,880 Speaker 3: on renewables and disagree on certain things, but because you know, 1646 01:17:29,920 --> 01:17:31,800 Speaker 3: one of the questions, of course is do you get 1647 01:17:31,960 --> 01:17:34,439 Speaker 3: enough power from renewables And just right now we're not 1648 01:17:34,600 --> 01:17:38,960 Speaker 3: quite there yet in terms of the power export that 1649 01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:40,559 Speaker 3: we're able to access from there. 1650 01:17:40,600 --> 01:17:41,639 Speaker 2: That's why that's why. 1651 01:17:41,560 --> 01:17:43,400 Speaker 3: We're seeing the around war right now, right That's why 1652 01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:46,400 Speaker 3: it's natural gas and oil. That's why gas prices are 1653 01:17:46,439 --> 01:17:48,720 Speaker 3: the way they are. And I've said for a long 1654 01:17:48,760 --> 01:17:50,880 Speaker 3: time that if we just we may I mean think 1655 01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:55,320 Speaker 3: of it. Right, we found these magical rocks that give 1656 01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:59,920 Speaker 3: us free energy forever. And then we had some incident 1657 01:18:00,120 --> 01:18:02,400 Speaker 3: while we were learning to use the magic rocks, and 1658 01:18:02,439 --> 01:18:04,680 Speaker 3: so we buried them and stopped using them, and I 1659 01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:07,840 Speaker 3: just think that's kind of wrong. And so I think 1660 01:18:07,920 --> 01:18:11,759 Speaker 3: that techno optimism absolutely is something that I'm one hundred 1661 01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:12,400 Speaker 3: percent behind. 1662 01:18:12,760 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 2: I think that it's something. 1663 01:18:13,720 --> 01:18:17,640 Speaker 3: Where you can marry these concerns about climate change with 1664 01:18:19,000 --> 01:18:21,360 Speaker 3: the future and also with people who would just want 1665 01:18:21,360 --> 01:18:24,759 Speaker 3: to see and make sure that we maintain enough energy 1666 01:18:24,840 --> 01:18:27,519 Speaker 3: to not only maintain our standard of living and Blake, 1667 01:18:27,520 --> 01:18:29,360 Speaker 3: you were talking about this on the podcast the other day, 1668 01:18:29,479 --> 01:18:32,120 Speaker 3: but also expand and progress our standard of living. 1669 01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:35,439 Speaker 5: I would just say we've never degrowthed our way out 1670 01:18:35,479 --> 01:18:38,080 Speaker 5: of any big problem. And if you look at where 1671 01:18:38,439 --> 01:18:41,120 Speaker 5: the biggest innovations are coming, which would include anything that 1672 01:18:41,160 --> 01:18:44,479 Speaker 5: would resolve global warming or any environmental problem, it's actually 1673 01:18:44,520 --> 01:18:47,679 Speaker 5: coming from the countries that have the most energy production 1674 01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:51,320 Speaker 5: because those are the most innovative and productive. So stuff 1675 01:18:51,360 --> 01:18:53,880 Speaker 5: comes out of the United States, it comes out of China, 1676 01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:57,080 Speaker 5: because where the nations that generate the most power generate 1677 01:18:57,120 --> 01:18:57,839 Speaker 5: the most innovation. 1678 01:18:58,479 --> 01:19:00,920 Speaker 2: And we should care about the environment. 1679 01:19:00,920 --> 01:19:03,240 Speaker 5: We have to be stewards as Christians, we believe in stewardship, 1680 01:19:03,320 --> 01:19:06,360 Speaker 5: but we are not going to achieve that by taking 1681 01:19:06,400 --> 01:19:09,720 Speaker 5: this anti civilizational posture that I think a lot of 1682 01:19:09,720 --> 01:19:10,240 Speaker 5: people do. 1683 01:19:10,280 --> 01:19:11,240 Speaker 2: I think a lot of. 1684 01:19:12,960 --> 01:19:19,120 Speaker 5: Hostility towards hostility towards electricity, hostility towards industry ultimately just 1685 01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:24,120 Speaker 5: becomes hostility towards prosperity itself. And we can't go down 1686 01:19:24,160 --> 01:19:26,720 Speaker 5: that path. That's the path of failure. It's the path 1687 01:19:26,760 --> 01:19:28,599 Speaker 5: of the path of being Britain. 1688 01:19:28,640 --> 01:19:32,479 Speaker 3: I don't want to be like being the UK, but 1689 01:19:32,600 --> 01:19:35,120 Speaker 3: I think I'm also just just to add one of 1690 01:19:35,120 --> 01:19:37,839 Speaker 3: the reasons that Greenland comes up so much is because 1691 01:19:37,880 --> 01:19:40,160 Speaker 3: you're starting to see and we and we're seeing the 1692 01:19:40,439 --> 01:19:44,400 Speaker 3: reduction in northern sea ice and the fact that those 1693 01:19:44,439 --> 01:19:47,160 Speaker 3: waterways are now opening up across the across the north 1694 01:19:47,320 --> 01:19:50,280 Speaker 3: the North Pole is going to be not only going 1695 01:19:50,320 --> 01:19:52,320 Speaker 3: to lead to the economics of the future, it's going 1696 01:19:52,360 --> 01:19:55,679 Speaker 3: to lead to wars of the future. It's why Russia 1697 01:19:55,720 --> 01:19:59,240 Speaker 3: is building megaports on their northern tier, and it's it's 1698 01:19:59,400 --> 01:20:01,760 Speaker 3: clearly some thing that's driving you know, people say, why 1699 01:20:01,840 --> 01:20:03,519 Speaker 3: is President Trump talking about Greenland? 1700 01:20:03,520 --> 01:20:05,240 Speaker 2: And I bring up some of these issues and they say, 1701 01:20:05,240 --> 01:20:09,800 Speaker 2: oh wow, I never thought of it that way. Alrighty, hey, 1702 01:20:09,960 --> 01:20:12,000 Speaker 2: let's sell ye, thank you so much. We probably we 1703 01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:13,920 Speaker 2: promise we'll be shorter and we were not sure. We're 1704 01:20:13,920 --> 01:20:15,519 Speaker 2: a way short. Let's see if we can. Let's see 1705 01:20:15,520 --> 01:20:17,519 Speaker 2: if we can be better on this. She hasked. A 1706 01:20:17,560 --> 01:20:20,080 Speaker 2: good question, only only bad questions from now on. 1707 01:20:22,680 --> 01:20:25,479 Speaker 9: Hi, folks, Andrew Colvett here, I'd like to tell you 1708 01:20:25,520 --> 01:20:28,240 Speaker 9: about my friends over at why Refi. You've probably been 1709 01:20:28,280 --> 01:20:30,559 Speaker 9: hearing me talk about why Refi for some time. Now 1710 01:20:31,040 --> 01:20:34,120 Speaker 9: we are all in with these guys. If you or 1711 01:20:34,160 --> 01:20:36,759 Speaker 9: someone you know is struggling with private student loan debt, 1712 01:20:37,080 --> 01:20:39,800 Speaker 9: take my advice and give them a call. Maybe you're 1713 01:20:39,800 --> 01:20:43,360 Speaker 9: behind on your payments, maybe you're even in default. You 1714 01:20:43,560 --> 01:20:46,240 Speaker 9: don't have to live in this nightmare anymore. Why Refy 1715 01:20:46,439 --> 01:20:49,439 Speaker 9: will provide you a custom payment based on your ability 1716 01:20:49,479 --> 01:20:53,200 Speaker 9: to pay. They tailor each loan individually. They can save 1717 01:20:53,240 --> 01:20:56,280 Speaker 9: you thousands of dollars and you can get your life back. 1718 01:20:56,920 --> 01:20:59,120 Speaker 9: We go to campuses all over America and we see 1719 01:20:59,160 --> 01:21:02,559 Speaker 9: student after student who's drowning in private student loan debt. 1720 01:21:02,800 --> 01:21:04,840 Speaker 9: Many of them don't even know how much they owe. 1721 01:21:05,320 --> 01:21:07,599 Speaker 9: Y ref I can help. Just go to y refi 1722 01:21:07,880 --> 01:21:12,080 Speaker 9: dot com. That's the letter why then refi dot com. 1723 01:21:12,120 --> 01:21:15,160 Speaker 9: And remember, y Refi doesn't care what your credit score is. 1724 01:21:15,200 --> 01:21:17,719 Speaker 9: Just go to y refi dot com and tell them 1725 01:21:17,840 --> 01:21:18,960 Speaker 9: your friend Andrews sent. 1726 01:21:18,880 --> 01:21:24,400 Speaker 2: Your what's question I've said a new rule. Okay, Hi, 1727 01:21:24,520 --> 01:21:27,240 Speaker 2: my name is kat Ellison. Thank you so much for 1728 01:21:27,320 --> 01:21:30,920 Speaker 2: coming to ASU. And my question is what is something 1729 01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:32,559 Speaker 2: that you would like to see more out of the 1730 01:21:32,560 --> 01:21:36,400 Speaker 2: Trump administration. See, that's a good question. Again, it's a deportations, 1731 01:21:36,400 --> 01:21:40,720 Speaker 2: more deportations. Yeah, I'd like to see it. Yeah, I 1732 01:21:40,760 --> 01:21:43,720 Speaker 2: would like to see more home building. I really liked 1733 01:21:43,840 --> 01:21:46,320 Speaker 2: Charlie's idea shot build ten million. 1734 01:21:46,479 --> 01:21:49,360 Speaker 3: Twenty first century housing actors, and I like that It's 1735 01:21:49,360 --> 01:21:51,400 Speaker 3: not the moonshot, but it's it's getting there. 1736 01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:54,360 Speaker 5: I just am I'm in favor of a country that 1737 01:21:54,400 --> 01:21:56,680 Speaker 5: builds stuff, and I think we should make it as 1738 01:21:56,680 --> 01:21:59,439 Speaker 5: easy as possible for not just you don't need the 1739 01:21:59,439 --> 01:22:01,719 Speaker 5: government to do it, for private actors to build things 1740 01:22:01,760 --> 01:22:02,400 Speaker 5: in America. 1741 01:22:02,479 --> 01:22:03,160 Speaker 2: I think we. 1742 01:22:03,160 --> 01:22:06,120 Speaker 5: Should see it as a huge failure every time. It 1743 01:22:06,160 --> 01:22:09,800 Speaker 5: should be nationally humiliating that that bridge in Baltimore got 1744 01:22:09,880 --> 01:22:11,720 Speaker 5: knocked over by a boat. I think two or three 1745 01:22:11,800 --> 01:22:14,519 Speaker 5: years ago it still isn't replaced. I think the timeline 1746 01:22:14,560 --> 01:22:18,160 Speaker 5: is twenty and thirty now. And similarly, they're trying to 1747 01:22:18,160 --> 01:22:20,320 Speaker 5: build a microchip plant in New York. It's been held 1748 01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:23,759 Speaker 5: up by I think a nonprofit that's funded by China 1749 01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:26,639 Speaker 5: and has six people in it, and they've held that up. 1750 01:22:26,520 --> 01:22:27,679 Speaker 2: For a few years. 1751 01:22:27,680 --> 01:22:30,280 Speaker 5: At this point, that should be a national crisis, and 1752 01:22:30,320 --> 01:22:31,320 Speaker 5: the biggest one is housing. 1753 01:22:31,360 --> 01:22:32,720 Speaker 2: It should be the simplest. 1754 01:22:32,280 --> 01:22:35,519 Speaker 5: Thing in the world to build enough houses, enough apartments, 1755 01:22:35,600 --> 01:22:39,120 Speaker 5: enough condos, enough take your pick, to have an affordable 1756 01:22:39,120 --> 01:22:42,160 Speaker 5: option for everyone in this country. And it is purely 1757 01:22:42,640 --> 01:22:46,160 Speaker 5: a regulatory failure in my opinion that we have you 1758 01:22:46,200 --> 01:22:46,400 Speaker 5: know what. 1759 01:22:46,400 --> 01:22:49,640 Speaker 2: Else would help with housing deportations. That is true, and 1760 01:22:49,760 --> 01:22:53,400 Speaker 2: it is there. We are. Thank you, thank you so much, 1761 01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:54,040 Speaker 2: thank you. 1762 01:22:58,960 --> 01:23:02,000 Speaker 18: Hey, gentleman, is Danny and I'm a freshman here at 1763 01:23:02,000 --> 01:23:04,000 Speaker 18: ASU and I'm studying marine biology. 1764 01:23:04,560 --> 01:23:05,760 Speaker 2: I wanted to talk a little bit. 1765 01:23:05,760 --> 01:23:05,880 Speaker 12: Wait. 1766 01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:08,240 Speaker 2: Wait, you're studying marine biology in the desert, right? 1767 01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:08,880 Speaker 4: Oh? 1768 01:23:08,960 --> 01:23:11,519 Speaker 2: I have a lot we haven't.

Can I ask? 1774 01:23:23,400 --> 01:23:24,880 Speaker 2: I'm not judged, not judge. 1775 01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:27,720 Speaker 5: She was choosing between that and you Miami's desert, you 1776 01:23:27,720 --> 01:23:28,360 Speaker 5: know program. 1777 01:23:28,439 --> 01:23:30,120 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, okay. 1778 01:23:30,240 --> 01:23:32,200 Speaker 18: So I wanted to speak a little bit on the 1779 01:23:32,280 --> 01:23:35,360 Speaker 18: killing of Sheridan Gorman, an eighteen year old from Yorktown 1780 01:23:35,400 --> 01:23:39,280 Speaker 18: and a freshman at Leola Chicago. Yes, why does it 1781 01:23:39,320 --> 01:23:42,120 Speaker 18: feel like cases like this don't get national attention or 1782 01:23:42,120 --> 01:23:46,200 Speaker 18: public acknowledgment from major political figures, especially those with ties 1783 01:23:46,240 --> 01:23:49,640 Speaker 18: to the community, someone like AOC who is from Sheridan's 1784 01:23:49,640 --> 01:23:52,439 Speaker 18: hometown in high school. And also, should there be more 1785 01:23:52,479 --> 01:23:54,960 Speaker 18: pressure on leaders like AOC to address this? 1786 01:23:56,160 --> 01:23:56,880 Speaker 2: Absolutely? 1787 01:23:57,520 --> 01:24:00,479 Speaker 5: I think the reason we've gotten better about high lighting them. 1788 01:24:00,600 --> 01:24:04,479 Speaker 5: The Trump administration, to its credit, has highlighted incidents like that. 1789 01:24:05,320 --> 01:24:08,040 Speaker 5: They had a case similar to her, as with Arena Zarutska, 1790 01:24:08,080 --> 01:24:10,519 Speaker 5: they had her family members at the State of the Union. 1791 01:24:10,760 --> 01:24:15,080 Speaker 5: We should highlight these because they're not. There will be 1792 01:24:15,160 --> 01:24:17,040 Speaker 5: crimes in any country, There will be murder victims in 1793 01:24:17,040 --> 01:24:19,759 Speaker 5: any country, but there is a special type of failure 1794 01:24:19,800 --> 01:24:23,360 Speaker 5: that comes from letting a person into your country who 1795 01:24:23,400 --> 01:24:26,360 Speaker 5: then murders someone here. Because you can control who comes 1796 01:24:26,400 --> 01:24:29,520 Speaker 5: into your country, every single person who comes from America, 1797 01:24:30,160 --> 01:24:32,760 Speaker 5: we should be looking at them and saying does this 1798 01:24:32,800 --> 01:24:34,080 Speaker 5: person make America better? 1799 01:24:34,160 --> 01:24:35,920 Speaker 2: Or will this person make America worse? 1800 01:24:36,320 --> 01:24:41,400 Speaker 5: And for decades on end our leadership class, in particular 1801 01:24:41,439 --> 01:24:46,120 Speaker 5: among Democrats. Many Republicans are implicated. They abdicated that responsibility. 1802 01:24:46,120 --> 01:24:49,280 Speaker 5: They abdicated their responsibility to their citizens to make sure 1803 01:24:49,280 --> 01:24:52,000 Speaker 5: that the people coming into this country made this country better. 1804 01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:53,960 Speaker 5: And they did it because it allowed a few people 1805 01:24:53,960 --> 01:24:56,400 Speaker 5: to make a quick buck, It allowed some people to 1806 01:24:56,880 --> 01:25:01,200 Speaker 5: feel morally superior, like they were good people, and frankly, 1807 01:25:02,040 --> 01:25:03,760 Speaker 5: it allowed some people to get power. A lot of 1808 01:25:03,760 --> 01:25:05,760 Speaker 5: people do this because they see it as a way 1809 01:25:05,960 --> 01:25:08,799 Speaker 5: to entrench themselves in power by replacing the people already 1810 01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:11,479 Speaker 5: in this country. And so absolutely it should be called 1811 01:25:11,479 --> 01:25:15,080 Speaker 5: out as much as possible because it's exceptionally evil what 1812 01:25:15,120 --> 01:25:17,880 Speaker 5: these people have done. That right now, if you go 1813 01:25:17,920 --> 01:25:19,960 Speaker 5: to an airport in this country, you might have to 1814 01:25:19,960 --> 01:25:22,240 Speaker 5: wait an extra hour or two hour or three hours 1815 01:25:22,479 --> 01:25:25,599 Speaker 5: because they are currently refusing to fund DHS, and they 1816 01:25:25,600 --> 01:25:28,840 Speaker 5: are refusing to fund DHS because they are angry that 1817 01:25:28,880 --> 01:25:33,519 Speaker 5: ICE might deport someone like the illegal immigrant who killed 1818 01:25:33,520 --> 01:25:34,000 Speaker 5: that woman. 1819 01:25:34,640 --> 01:25:36,840 Speaker 2: And this is happening over and over again, and it 1820 01:25:36,880 --> 01:25:38,400 Speaker 2: should be highlighted every single time. 1821 01:25:38,720 --> 01:25:41,720 Speaker 3: I'll also I'll mention that this is a failure on 1822 01:25:42,400 --> 01:25:45,200 Speaker 3: the right, and it's a failure of conservative media as well, 1823 01:25:45,240 --> 01:25:49,400 Speaker 3: because so you look at a situation like Alex pretty 1824 01:25:50,040 --> 01:25:55,519 Speaker 3: or remember the Marilyn man Rigo Garcia who is actually 1825 01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:58,120 Speaker 3: being deported. Now if I remember the latest on this, 1826 01:25:58,640 --> 01:26:01,840 Speaker 3: that when one of those situations happens, you know, and 1827 01:26:01,880 --> 01:26:04,960 Speaker 3: it's and the left has the ability to portray a 1828 01:26:05,040 --> 01:26:07,599 Speaker 3: victim of the right. What you'll see them do is 1829 01:26:07,880 --> 01:26:10,679 Speaker 3: they will go up to every single senator on the right, 1830 01:26:10,720 --> 01:26:13,080 Speaker 3: every Republican, They'll go up to people in conservative media. 1831 01:26:13,120 --> 01:26:15,360 Speaker 3: They'll go up to every single do you agree with this, 1832 01:26:15,439 --> 01:26:16,320 Speaker 3: do you denounce this? 1833 01:26:16,439 --> 01:26:18,400 Speaker 2: Are you okay with this? Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, 1834 01:26:18,479 --> 01:26:19,479 Speaker 2: over and over and over. 1835 01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:22,439 Speaker 3: And this is a failure, I think on our side 1836 01:26:22,439 --> 01:26:24,759 Speaker 3: because we don't do that. With what you just said 1837 01:26:25,120 --> 01:26:29,479 Speaker 3: about AOC and why isn't she bringing this up? Conservative 1838 01:26:29,479 --> 01:26:31,800 Speaker 3: media doesn't do this enough. We just don't do it 1839 01:26:31,920 --> 01:26:35,360 Speaker 3: enough because it requires having Now that's also part of 1840 01:26:35,360 --> 01:26:37,479 Speaker 3: the there's also an issue of scale there because they 1841 01:26:37,560 --> 01:26:40,160 Speaker 3: just have more reporters and they can hang people out 1842 01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:43,280 Speaker 3: at the you know, at the Capitol building or other 1843 01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:45,920 Speaker 3: parts of DC, et cetera, just to be able to. 1844 01:26:45,880 --> 01:26:46,559 Speaker 2: Do that all day. 1845 01:26:47,520 --> 01:26:49,040 Speaker 3: And this is this is why one of the things 1846 01:26:49,080 --> 01:26:51,599 Speaker 3: that I I've always appreciated Charlie for in Turning Point 1847 01:26:51,640 --> 01:26:56,200 Speaker 3: for was investing in new media and investing in those enterprises, 1848 01:26:56,360 --> 01:26:59,080 Speaker 3: building up grassroots, building up individuals to be able to 1849 01:26:59,240 --> 01:27:02,360 Speaker 3: Nick Shirley, you know, you look at something that people 1850 01:27:02,400 --> 01:27:05,439 Speaker 3: can do on a regular basis that would not have 1851 01:27:05,520 --> 01:27:06,799 Speaker 3: existed in the past. 1852 01:27:06,920 --> 01:27:10,679 Speaker 2: So you're absolutely right. You're absolutely right that it's a problem, 1853 01:27:10,840 --> 01:27:12,720 Speaker 2: but it is a problem that we're seeing improvement on. 1854 01:27:12,880 --> 01:27:20,880 Speaker 2: We are Thank you, gentlemen, Thank you very much. Hi. 1855 01:27:21,000 --> 01:27:23,120 Speaker 15: My name is Ocean Rosso and I'm a Turning Point 1856 01:27:23,200 --> 01:27:26,160 Speaker 15: Chapter president in my community and I've had the honor 1857 01:27:26,160 --> 01:27:28,800 Speaker 15: of speaking to thousands all across this state. But one 1858 01:27:28,800 --> 01:27:31,320 Speaker 15: issue I see come up again and again specifically in 1859 01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:34,839 Speaker 15: my generation is an apathy when it comes to freedom 1860 01:27:34,960 --> 01:27:38,400 Speaker 15: or the Constitution or even the conservative movement from both 1861 01:27:38,479 --> 01:27:42,479 Speaker 15: liberals and conservatives in this movement. So my question is, 1862 01:27:42,600 --> 01:27:44,400 Speaker 15: how do you believe it is best for us to 1863 01:27:44,479 --> 01:27:47,160 Speaker 15: combat this apathy and save freedom. 1864 01:27:47,920 --> 01:27:50,080 Speaker 3: Well, I think you know that's a great question, and 1865 01:27:50,240 --> 01:27:51,920 Speaker 3: of course we've got the shirts on and this was 1866 01:27:51,960 --> 01:27:53,479 Speaker 3: the shirt that Charlie you. 1867 01:27:53,439 --> 01:28:00,280 Speaker 2: Know, was wearing that day, and we sort of talked 1868 01:28:00,320 --> 01:28:03,519 Speaker 2: about it at the you know, I get it right. 1869 01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:05,840 Speaker 3: The reason that people are saying, well they say, people 1870 01:28:05,840 --> 01:28:08,240 Speaker 3: are saying, the system is messed up. So why should 1871 01:28:08,240 --> 01:28:10,519 Speaker 3: I support that thing on the wall over there. That's 1872 01:28:10,560 --> 01:28:12,840 Speaker 3: the system that got us here, so I should be 1873 01:28:12,880 --> 01:28:13,360 Speaker 3: against that. 1874 01:28:13,400 --> 01:28:14,000 Speaker 2: And who cares? 1875 01:28:14,000 --> 01:28:15,720 Speaker 3: Because if that system brought us to this, then what 1876 01:28:15,760 --> 01:28:16,479 Speaker 3: good was the system? 1877 01:28:16,560 --> 01:28:19,520 Speaker 2: Right? That's usually what you get your response, and. 1878 01:28:21,840 --> 01:28:24,759 Speaker 3: When you look at the building blocks of that and 1879 01:28:25,360 --> 01:28:27,280 Speaker 3: you you know, Blake and I were just talking about 1880 01:28:27,320 --> 01:28:28,840 Speaker 3: it at the outset here and we talked about what 1881 01:28:28,840 --> 01:28:32,400 Speaker 3: happened to Charlie. That's what happens when you move outside 1882 01:28:33,080 --> 01:28:36,519 Speaker 3: that system. That when you move outside that system and 1883 01:28:36,560 --> 01:28:40,120 Speaker 3: you stop having dialogue and you stop having conversation, and 1884 01:28:40,160 --> 01:28:42,080 Speaker 3: you stop having debate like we have had tonight. We've 1885 01:28:42,080 --> 01:28:44,760 Speaker 3: had disagreement, and you know, Blake and I'm sure it'll 1886 01:28:44,760 --> 01:28:47,400 Speaker 3: be disagreeing all night, as we do in our in 1887 01:28:47,439 --> 01:28:49,400 Speaker 3: our chat rooms and all the rest of it. 1888 01:28:49,439 --> 01:28:54,120 Speaker 2: But the point is is that this is the system. 1889 01:28:53,800 --> 01:28:58,720 Speaker 3: That brought us to these incredible dizzying heights that we 1890 01:28:58,760 --> 01:29:00,799 Speaker 3: have as a country, as the Unit's Aids of America, 1891 01:29:01,600 --> 01:29:05,040 Speaker 3: and we should probably be very careful about being so 1892 01:29:05,160 --> 01:29:09,080 Speaker 3: cavalier about just chopping it down and getting rived, because 1893 01:29:09,320 --> 01:29:11,280 Speaker 3: this is the system that brought us to where we are. 1894 01:29:11,760 --> 01:29:17,920 Speaker 3: And so, you know, I think that Charlie would say, 1895 01:29:18,439 --> 01:29:21,519 Speaker 3: use that story, use his story as an example to 1896 01:29:22,280 --> 01:29:26,240 Speaker 3: point out the dangers of losing the First Amendment or 1897 01:29:26,240 --> 01:29:32,000 Speaker 3: deciding to step beyond voting and dialogue and peace because 1898 01:29:32,040 --> 01:29:33,960 Speaker 3: of how bad things can get and how things can 1899 01:29:34,000 --> 01:29:35,160 Speaker 3: get very quickly. 1900 01:29:35,200 --> 01:29:36,280 Speaker 2: And there were a lot of and by the way, 1901 01:29:36,280 --> 01:29:38,040 Speaker 2: I would say this, and I said this to. 1902 01:29:38,000 --> 01:29:39,640 Speaker 3: A lot of media, and you're not saying this, but 1903 01:29:39,680 --> 01:29:42,920 Speaker 3: I'll say this again that you know there were people 1904 01:29:42,920 --> 01:29:45,040 Speaker 3: who there are people constantly if you guys, you know, 1905 01:29:45,080 --> 01:29:46,320 Speaker 3: if you're here on the right, if you're part of 1906 01:29:46,400 --> 01:29:49,439 Speaker 3: turning point, they'll say, oh, you conservatives, you're so violent, 1907 01:29:49,760 --> 01:29:52,960 Speaker 3: You're always you're always practicing violence, promoting violence. 1908 01:29:53,040 --> 01:29:55,519 Speaker 2: Right wing violence is the greatest threat to America. 1909 01:29:55,640 --> 01:29:58,439 Speaker 3: And I always say this, I say really really, because 1910 01:29:58,479 --> 01:30:00,120 Speaker 3: if that were true, and if we were really the 1911 01:30:00,160 --> 01:30:02,800 Speaker 3: people that you say we are, then look at how 1912 01:30:02,840 --> 01:30:05,799 Speaker 3: we responded to Charlie Kirk, did we respond with violence 1913 01:30:05,840 --> 01:30:08,120 Speaker 3: in that situation when we were visited with violence? 1914 01:30:08,200 --> 01:30:10,160 Speaker 2: No, we did not respond with violence.

But at the same time, it's 1967 01:32:52,360 --> 01:32:55,000 Speaker 3: it's maintaining that outlook of being a happy warrior, right, 1968 01:32:55,000 --> 01:32:56,400 Speaker 3: And that's that's how Charlie was. 1969 01:32:56,439 --> 01:32:58,920 Speaker 2: He was the happy warrior. He would go out there. 1970 01:32:59,000 --> 01:33:01,400 Speaker 3: He loved debating, and I think that's what turning points 1971 01:33:01,400 --> 01:33:03,800 Speaker 3: all about, being happy and believing I can I can 1972 01:33:03,840 --> 01:33:07,200 Speaker 3: dip into anger myself at times. And it's it's something 1973 01:33:07,200 --> 01:33:10,000 Speaker 3: that I've tried to advice for myself too, is that, Hey, 1974 01:33:10,000 --> 01:33:11,960 Speaker 3: if you're going to be out there doing a turning 1975 01:33:12,000 --> 01:33:13,880 Speaker 3: point event, do it like Charlie would do it with 1976 01:33:14,120 --> 01:33:17,000 Speaker 3: do it with kindness, do it with grace. 1977 01:33:17,560 --> 01:33:19,599 Speaker 2: And I think that's what he always tried to lead with. 1978 01:33:19,680 --> 01:33:21,200 Speaker 2: Charlie always he would tell me. 1979 01:33:22,080 --> 01:33:23,519 Speaker 5: Actually, I think this was the first time I ever 1980 01:33:23,560 --> 01:33:25,760 Speaker 5: traveled with him, and he told me, Blake, if I'm 1981 01:33:25,760 --> 01:33:28,000 Speaker 5: feeling sad, I just decide not to be sad and 1982 01:33:28,040 --> 01:33:30,880 Speaker 5: then I'm not sad and not what I'm drinking. Dude, 1983 01:33:30,920 --> 01:33:33,920 Speaker 5: I thought, Okay, that doesn't make a lot of sense. 1984 01:33:34,120 --> 01:33:36,720 Speaker 5: I'm not sure I believe him, but he actually it was. 1985 01:33:37,280 --> 01:33:37,880 Speaker 2: It was true. 1986 01:33:38,120 --> 01:33:40,599 Speaker 5: He actually he was a strong believer that you can 1987 01:33:41,360 --> 01:33:43,360 Speaker 5: you can choose how you react to things. You can 1988 01:33:43,439 --> 01:33:46,599 Speaker 5: choose the attitude that you bring into things. And that's 1989 01:33:46,640 --> 01:33:49,280 Speaker 5: probably very difficult the first time you do it, maybe 1990 01:33:49,320 --> 01:33:51,760 Speaker 5: the first twenty times you do it, but it is 1991 01:33:52,000 --> 01:33:56,040 Speaker 5: a skill that can be built over time. And one 1992 01:33:56,080 --> 01:33:57,439 Speaker 5: of the things I had, you know, I worked with 1993 01:33:57,520 --> 01:34:01,599 Speaker 5: Charlie for three years and what I grew to admire 1994 01:34:01,680 --> 01:34:04,080 Speaker 5: the most in him was that sort of discipline that 1995 01:34:04,160 --> 01:34:06,400 Speaker 5: I saw. You can meet a million people who are 1996 01:34:06,439 --> 01:34:08,519 Speaker 5: smart and then their lives are a disaster. But it 1997 01:34:08,560 --> 01:34:12,160 Speaker 5: was that Charlie was the absolute master of having discipline 1998 01:34:12,240 --> 01:34:16,719 Speaker 5: over his feelings, discipline over his reaction to things, discipline 1999 01:34:16,720 --> 01:34:20,000 Speaker 5: over how he over the things he could control in 2000 01:34:20,040 --> 01:34:24,240 Speaker 5: his life he exerted maximum power over and the things 2001 01:34:24,280 --> 01:34:25,599 Speaker 5: that he couldn't control in his life. 2002 01:34:26,280 --> 01:34:32,000 Speaker 2: He left to God that congratulations, thank you for stepping 2003 01:34:32,080 --> 01:34:38,040 Speaker 2: up too. I think we have eight minutes now, We're 2004 01:34:38,040 --> 01:34:39,800 Speaker 2: gonna make you guys. We're gonna make it all right. 2005 01:34:39,880 --> 01:34:41,920 Speaker 2: Let's speed around, let's go. How's it going, guys. My 2006 01:34:42,000 --> 01:34:42,639 Speaker 2: name is Landon. 2007 01:34:43,520 --> 01:34:46,400 Speaker 17: This is not as much of like a question, it 2008 01:34:46,479 --> 01:34:48,320 Speaker 17: kind of is, but it's also like a debate topic 2009 01:34:48,360 --> 01:34:48,840 Speaker 17: as well. 2010 01:34:49,520 --> 01:34:50,599 Speaker 2: Charlie blessed his soul. 2011 01:34:51,120 --> 01:34:53,360 Speaker 17: This is something I've always wanted to debate him, and 2012 01:34:53,400 --> 01:34:56,000 Speaker 17: it's like how to raise your kids. Because I knew 2013 01:34:56,000 --> 01:34:58,920 Speaker 17: that Charlie was a huge advocate of being like a 2014 01:34:58,960 --> 01:35:01,320 Speaker 17: strict parent, and because I remember when he was on 2015 01:35:01,360 --> 01:35:05,400 Speaker 17: the George Jenko Show. He said in that the podcast 2016 01:35:05,400 --> 01:35:08,519 Speaker 17: episode that the kids that always went out and did 2017 01:35:08,600 --> 01:35:11,479 Speaker 17: drugs and drinking and stuff were the ones that had 2018 01:35:12,000 --> 01:35:14,679 Speaker 17: not very strict parents, and the strict and the kids 2019 01:35:14,680 --> 01:35:16,760 Speaker 17: that had strict parents, you know, they would always be 2020 01:35:16,840 --> 01:35:19,240 Speaker 17: afraid that, you know, their mom or dad would kill 2021 01:35:19,280 --> 01:35:21,800 Speaker 17: them if they ever did something like that. But personally, 2022 01:35:21,840 --> 01:35:25,280 Speaker 17: for me, as someone who didn't have particularly strict parents, 2023 01:35:26,040 --> 01:35:29,519 Speaker 17: I never went out and drank or did drugs or anything. 2024 01:35:29,920 --> 01:35:33,160 Speaker 17: So I'm I'm kind of like more of an advocate 2025 01:35:33,280 --> 01:35:36,400 Speaker 17: of I also am an advocate of like you know, 2026 01:35:36,400 --> 01:35:39,759 Speaker 17: strict parenting causes sneaky kids because I have seen it before. 2027 01:35:40,840 --> 01:35:43,000 Speaker 2: So I'm kind of more of an advocate. 2028 01:35:42,640 --> 01:35:46,640 Speaker 17: Of like obviously being you know, you need to be 2029 01:35:46,680 --> 01:35:48,960 Speaker 17: strict at times, but always like, you know, be there 2030 01:35:48,960 --> 01:35:51,720 Speaker 17: for your kids. Because my parenting situation was is they 2031 01:35:51,720 --> 01:35:54,040 Speaker 17: would my parents would say, you know, if you ever 2032 01:35:54,080 --> 01:35:56,160 Speaker 17: go out to a party and get drunk or something, 2033 01:35:57,160 --> 01:35:59,280 Speaker 17: just know we may not agree with what you're doing, 2034 01:35:59,720 --> 01:36:01,880 Speaker 17: but just know that we are here for you because 2035 01:36:01,920 --> 01:36:04,080 Speaker 17: we and if you need to talk to us, or like, 2036 01:36:04,080 --> 01:36:06,400 Speaker 17: if you're at a party in a bad situation, call us, 2037 01:36:06,520 --> 01:36:09,120 Speaker 17: because we would rather us come pick you up and 2038 01:36:09,200 --> 01:36:12,160 Speaker 17: you get home safely then you not come home at all. 2039 01:36:12,280 --> 01:36:14,519 Speaker 17: So that's kind of my view on parenting personally. I 2040 01:36:14,560 --> 01:36:16,120 Speaker 17: just kind of wanted to know your thoughts on that. 2041 01:36:16,840 --> 01:36:21,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm kind of heterodox on this and I don't 2042 01:36:21,640 --> 01:36:25,200 Speaker 3: think that, and I've thought about these things a lot. 2043 01:36:25,120 --> 01:36:27,960 Speaker 2: And as a dad, I think about this all the time, obviously, but. 2044 01:36:28,320 --> 01:36:31,280 Speaker 3: I think that different kids, different people have different kids, 2045 01:36:31,479 --> 01:36:34,200 Speaker 3: and different kids need different outcomes, and I don't think 2046 01:36:34,240 --> 01:36:37,320 Speaker 3: parenting is a one size fits all thing. I don't 2047 01:36:37,320 --> 01:36:40,160 Speaker 3: think I've ever actually said this publicly, but you know, 2048 01:36:40,280 --> 01:36:41,880 Speaker 3: you mentioned it. It's been something i've been thinking about 2049 01:36:41,920 --> 01:36:44,519 Speaker 3: for a while, and I don't think there is any 2050 01:36:44,720 --> 01:36:47,800 Speaker 3: one answer that's gonna, oh this is going to set 2051 01:36:47,800 --> 01:36:49,160 Speaker 3: your kid on the straight and narrow. I mean, I 2052 01:36:49,200 --> 01:36:52,160 Speaker 3: think there's you know, generally good principles. But at the 2053 01:36:52,200 --> 01:36:55,599 Speaker 3: same time, I just think different kids are different, and 2054 01:36:55,640 --> 01:36:58,320 Speaker 3: so what you have to do more than anything, before 2055 01:36:58,360 --> 01:37:01,200 Speaker 3: you even start applying one of these systems that people 2056 01:37:01,280 --> 01:37:04,360 Speaker 3: sell to their kids is you have to meet your kids. 2057 01:37:04,920 --> 01:37:07,160 Speaker 3: Meet them where they are, understand them, try to know 2058 01:37:07,240 --> 01:37:09,640 Speaker 3: them as they are, and don't try to, you know, 2059 01:37:09,840 --> 01:37:13,000 Speaker 3: you know, mold them into exactly what you want them 2060 01:37:13,040 --> 01:37:17,280 Speaker 3: to be, but also coach them and if that makes sense, 2061 01:37:17,680 --> 01:37:22,800 Speaker 3: and and find out what they are specifically talented at 2062 01:37:22,920 --> 01:37:26,240 Speaker 3: or skilled at, or what they gravitate towards, and then 2063 01:37:26,439 --> 01:37:29,360 Speaker 3: use that to say, okay, these are the best ways 2064 01:37:29,400 --> 01:37:32,400 Speaker 3: you can You can use your talent for good, whether 2065 01:37:32,439 --> 01:37:33,920 Speaker 3: it's something that I want or not. 2066 01:37:33,960 --> 01:37:35,680 Speaker 2: And hopefully it's something I want and. 2067 01:37:35,680 --> 01:37:37,720 Speaker 3: You can and and you can do that unless less 2068 01:37:37,760 --> 01:37:38,759 Speaker 3: of course, it's being a libtard. 2069 01:37:39,640 --> 01:37:42,000 Speaker 2: But as long as you're. 2070 01:37:41,920 --> 01:37:46,000 Speaker 3: Patriots, and and I do think that's that's the best way. 2071 01:37:46,040 --> 01:37:48,960 Speaker 3: So strict versus not strict, No, that being said. One 2072 01:37:49,000 --> 01:37:52,600 Speaker 3: thing that I would add, though, is you can be 2073 01:37:52,960 --> 01:37:56,879 Speaker 3: you can have friendly relationships with your children, and you should. 2074 01:37:57,120 --> 01:37:58,639 Speaker 3: You want your kid to be at what's the metric 2075 01:37:58,720 --> 01:38:01,080 Speaker 3: you want your kid to be able to be to 2076 01:38:01,200 --> 01:38:03,960 Speaker 3: enjoy quiet moments with you and just feel that comfort. 2077 01:38:04,200 --> 01:38:08,200 Speaker 3: But at the same time, you can't do that at 2078 01:38:08,240 --> 01:38:12,400 Speaker 3: the cost of stopping being a father or a mother 2079 01:38:12,560 --> 01:38:13,080 Speaker 3: to your kid. 2080 01:38:13,280 --> 01:38:15,200 Speaker 2: Is that you have to be mom and dad. You 2081 01:38:15,320 --> 01:38:19,599 Speaker 2: cannot be you know, I'm just friends with my kids. 2082 01:38:19,600 --> 01:38:21,040 Speaker 2: I'm gonna let him do whatever. It's like. 2083 01:38:21,200 --> 01:38:24,439 Speaker 3: Nah, that ain't it, because because kids can't be free range, 2084 01:38:24,439 --> 01:38:24,920 Speaker 3: it don't work. 2085 01:38:25,520 --> 01:38:27,559 Speaker 2: Yeah. I agree. Yeah, there's a there's a much longer 2086 01:38:27,640 --> 01:38:30,240 Speaker 2: topic there. But it's a good question. I said bad questions. 2087 01:38:30,280 --> 01:38:34,439 Speaker 2: These are good questions. What's happening? This audience is fired, 2088 01:38:34,640 --> 01:38:37,360 Speaker 2: Get out of here, all right, this is our last time. 2089 01:38:37,360 --> 01:38:39,960 Speaker 2: All right, we go. A lucky you, Hi, I'm lucky 2090 01:38:39,960 --> 01:38:42,519 Speaker 2: on your shirt? Yeah, a lucky guy. There we go. 2091 01:38:44,320 --> 01:38:46,200 Speaker 10: I had two questions, but I'll ask them really quick 2092 01:38:46,200 --> 01:38:49,040 Speaker 10: and you can answer however you want to. The first 2093 01:38:49,120 --> 01:38:52,679 Speaker 10: question was regarding it was mentioned about automization in regards 2094 01:38:52,720 --> 01:38:54,680 Speaker 10: to farming, and then AI and other stuff like that. 2095 01:38:55,200 --> 01:38:57,280 Speaker 10: I don't want to make assumptions, but to be quick, 2096 01:38:57,320 --> 01:38:58,720 Speaker 10: I'm just going to real quick. 2097 01:38:58,840 --> 01:38:59,400 Speaker 2: I would. 2098 01:39:00,880 --> 01:39:02,960 Speaker 10: In general, when it comes to like, I guess kind 2099 01:39:02,960 --> 01:39:06,320 Speaker 10: of protectionist policies to protect American labor while also being 2100 01:39:06,520 --> 01:39:11,639 Speaker 10: in favor of like free markets, economic growth and protecting labor, 2101 01:39:12,560 --> 01:39:15,559 Speaker 10: there seems to be like a conflict with automization and 2102 01:39:15,680 --> 01:39:17,439 Speaker 10: AI with the potential for people. 2103 01:39:17,280 --> 01:39:19,759 Speaker 2: To lose jobs. 2104 01:39:20,040 --> 01:39:23,400 Speaker 10: And then there's also the potential where subsidizing certain industries 2105 01:39:23,439 --> 01:39:28,880 Speaker 10: could probably cause economic dissatisfaction with like taxes. How can 2106 01:39:28,960 --> 01:39:32,799 Speaker 10: you deal with both of these situations together without like guess, 2107 01:39:32,840 --> 01:39:37,160 Speaker 10: losing any type of core values or principles about certain 2108 01:39:37,200 --> 01:39:42,160 Speaker 10: economic policies. And then the other one was regarding political 2109 01:39:42,240 --> 01:39:45,160 Speaker 10: violence is like a serious problem in the country, and 2110 01:39:45,160 --> 01:39:48,840 Speaker 10: so as with like radical beliefs, and it seems to 2111 01:39:48,840 --> 01:39:50,679 Speaker 10: be like a problem that comes on a lot more 2112 01:39:50,720 --> 01:39:54,599 Speaker 10: because of like online discourses. I have friends who are conservative, 2113 01:39:54,600 --> 01:39:56,960 Speaker 10: I have friends who are liberal. They don't ever say 2114 01:39:56,960 --> 01:39:59,559 Speaker 10: anything crazy about political violence. But then you online and 2115 01:39:59,600 --> 01:40:05,400 Speaker 10: you see people from either both sides or presenting as 2116 01:40:05,439 --> 01:40:10,639 Speaker 10: being both sides, saying really not good things and promoting 2117 01:40:10,640 --> 01:40:13,600 Speaker 10: certain ideas. What would you say the solution for that 2118 01:40:13,720 --> 01:40:15,200 Speaker 10: is and do you think that there needs to be 2119 01:40:16,600 --> 01:40:19,639 Speaker 10: more cooperation and like outreach between people with different ideas 2120 01:40:19,640 --> 01:40:23,519 Speaker 10: to have a greater conversations and tolerance with each other. 2121 01:40:23,680 --> 01:40:25,760 Speaker 5: Well, we might have to really blitz this one, I 2122 01:40:25,760 --> 01:40:29,240 Speaker 5: mean the political violence one. Obviously, I think discourse like 2123 01:40:29,320 --> 01:40:32,200 Speaker 5: this public spaces that has to help you. Actually, it 2124 01:40:32,280 --> 01:40:36,400 Speaker 5: is deeply humanizing to actually engage in dialogue in real 2125 01:40:36,439 --> 01:40:39,519 Speaker 5: life with people, not just on the internet. Call it 2126 01:40:39,520 --> 01:40:42,519 Speaker 5: the grass touching principle. 2127 01:40:42,840 --> 01:40:43,479 Speaker 2: You get to see. 2128 01:40:44,240 --> 01:40:46,559 Speaker 3: It's something that you know, kind of in the wake 2129 01:40:46,600 --> 01:40:50,040 Speaker 3: of Charlie's murder that I thought about more as well, 2130 01:40:50,320 --> 01:40:52,680 Speaker 3: is that when you're online, as you say, you know, 2131 01:40:53,000 --> 01:40:58,559 Speaker 3: that person isn't like Charlie, the human being who has. 2132 01:40:58,479 --> 01:41:02,200 Speaker 2: A wife and kids. It's it's oh, there's that guy, 2133 01:41:02,320 --> 01:41:05,280 Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk. I hate that guy. He's always talking to 2134 01:41:05,320 --> 01:41:08,479 Speaker 2: his hate He's always so bad. I got to stop him. 2135 01:41:08,479 --> 01:41:09,840 Speaker 2: I've got to find a way to stop him. 2136 01:41:09,880 --> 01:41:13,519 Speaker 3: But you know, I wish that Tyler Robinson had just 2137 01:41:14,400 --> 01:41:17,280 Speaker 3: come to the event and stood in line and you know, 2138 01:41:17,400 --> 01:41:19,800 Speaker 3: had a debate with the guy rather than doing what 2139 01:41:19,840 --> 01:41:23,360 Speaker 3: he did, because I think that it just it to 2140 01:41:23,439 --> 01:41:26,439 Speaker 3: Blake's point, it humanizes you unless you see that the 2141 01:41:26,479 --> 01:41:28,719 Speaker 3: other person. We did it earlier today with the unef 2142 01:41:28,800 --> 01:41:31,480 Speaker 3: America people where we got out, we had a conversation. 2143 01:41:31,880 --> 01:41:34,240 Speaker 3: We were actually able to provide them some information that 2144 01:41:34,280 --> 01:41:37,439 Speaker 3: they didn't have, and they actually kind of apologized, and 2145 01:41:37,479 --> 01:41:40,120 Speaker 3: I think she deleted Blake and she would delete something 2146 01:41:40,160 --> 01:41:42,840 Speaker 3: and she did so, you know, it would have been 2147 01:41:42,840 --> 01:41:45,040 Speaker 3: easy for us and probably would have gotten more clicks 2148 01:41:45,040 --> 01:41:47,160 Speaker 3: out of it if we just went and started yelling 2149 01:41:47,160 --> 01:41:49,439 Speaker 3: at each other. But you know, what's really better for 2150 01:41:49,439 --> 01:41:51,720 Speaker 3: the country ultimately, And I think that's what leads to 2151 01:41:51,800 --> 01:41:53,599 Speaker 3: places where you get more political violence. 2152 01:41:53,920 --> 01:41:54,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. 2153 01:41:54,960 --> 01:41:56,519 Speaker 10: Yeah, that was like one of the problems with like 2154 01:41:57,680 --> 01:41:59,519 Speaker 10: one of the things that bothered me with after the 2155 01:41:59,640 --> 01:42:02,200 Speaker 10: murder of Charlie Kirk. I didn't see any people that 2156 01:42:02,280 --> 01:42:04,760 Speaker 10: I personally knew like celebrating or like saying like, oh, 2157 01:42:04,800 --> 01:42:06,599 Speaker 10: we need a civil war to get back at people. 2158 01:42:06,600 --> 01:42:08,680 Speaker 10: But then online you would see people who are very 2159 01:42:08,720 --> 01:42:10,760 Speaker 10: upset on both things saying something that they would never 2160 01:42:11,080 --> 01:42:13,880 Speaker 10: say to people in person, really, and I feel like 2161 01:42:13,880 --> 01:42:15,439 Speaker 10: that's a bad problem. And then I feel like it 2162 01:42:15,479 --> 01:42:18,160 Speaker 10: also has the effect of like really ramping people up 2163 01:42:18,240 --> 01:42:20,760 Speaker 10: who don't go outside and spend all their time on 2164 01:42:20,840 --> 01:42:21,519 Speaker 10: online spaces. 2165 01:42:21,520 --> 01:42:24,160 Speaker 2: Can I actually can I actually combine your questions? 2166 01:42:24,439 --> 01:42:24,639 Speaker 12: Yeah? 2167 01:42:24,680 --> 01:42:25,240 Speaker 2: Yeahely. 2168 01:42:25,240 --> 01:42:28,519 Speaker 3: So what's interesting is that, you know, did you think 2169 01:42:28,520 --> 01:42:29,840 Speaker 3: those two things related at all? 2170 01:42:31,200 --> 01:42:33,639 Speaker 10: Partially with like AI and liked So. 2171 01:42:33,600 --> 01:42:37,040 Speaker 2: I think they are. I think that political violence. 2172 01:42:36,720 --> 01:42:42,080 Speaker 3: And economic upheaval are actually related. And I think that 2173 01:42:42,600 --> 01:42:45,000 Speaker 3: you see this in the past as well, like during 2174 01:42:45,000 --> 01:42:48,240 Speaker 3: the Industrial Revolution, So the just revolution happens, we're living 2175 01:42:48,240 --> 01:42:50,840 Speaker 3: through the technological revolution. Now what happens right after the 2176 01:42:50,840 --> 01:42:56,679 Speaker 3: Industrial Revolution, like massive Bolshevik uprisings across Europe. 2177 01:42:56,720 --> 01:42:59,200 Speaker 2: It leads to World War Two, and you see reprisals, 2178 01:42:59,200 --> 01:42:59,639 Speaker 2: et cetera. 2179 01:43:00,439 --> 01:43:02,519 Speaker 3: And prior to that, you see this this wave of 2180 01:43:02,600 --> 01:43:05,840 Speaker 3: hyperviolence across Europe and even here in the United States. 2181 01:43:05,960 --> 01:43:07,960 Speaker 2: We go into the eighteen hundreds, we. 2182 01:43:07,960 --> 01:43:11,599 Speaker 3: Had a radical socialist murderer president, which we don't talk 2183 01:43:11,640 --> 01:43:15,840 Speaker 3: about at all, but right there in New York State, 2184 01:43:15,880 --> 01:43:19,320 Speaker 3: in Buffalo, New York, we had a you know, huge 2185 01:43:19,400 --> 01:43:23,439 Speaker 3: bombings on Wall Street and Chicago and which we don't 2186 01:43:23,439 --> 01:43:25,360 Speaker 3: really talk about anymore. And I think a lot of 2187 01:43:25,400 --> 01:43:27,920 Speaker 3: that was caused by economic upheople. So I'm not saying 2188 01:43:27,960 --> 01:43:32,280 Speaker 3: that the Internet discourse doesn't play a role, but we 2189 01:43:32,360 --> 01:43:35,920 Speaker 3: did see political violence during another period when we were 2190 01:43:35,960 --> 01:43:39,600 Speaker 3: going through an economic what would you call it a 2191 01:43:39,640 --> 01:43:43,479 Speaker 3: shift to change, you know, an economic revolution like the 2192 01:43:43,520 --> 01:43:47,879 Speaker 3: industrial revolution, and so because it just leads to you know, massive, 2193 01:43:48,000 --> 01:43:51,200 Speaker 3: massive wealth inequalities. And I know I've said that around 2194 01:43:51,200 --> 01:43:52,840 Speaker 3: some people and they say, oh, Jack, you can't talk 2195 01:43:52,840 --> 01:43:55,160 Speaker 3: about that. That's Karl Marx talk. And it's like, well, no, 2196 01:43:55,200 --> 01:43:57,519 Speaker 3: I'm not saying that I want communism. I'm just saying 2197 01:43:57,520 --> 01:44:01,639 Speaker 3: that economics obviously plays a huge role in all of this. 2198 01:44:02,200 --> 01:44:04,640 Speaker 3: When you look at Tyler Robinson, this was a downwardly 2199 01:44:04,880 --> 01:44:09,840 Speaker 3: mobile white male student who looked like he had been 2200 01:44:09,920 --> 01:44:12,560 Speaker 3: decently you know, intelligent, but you know, I guess was 2201 01:44:12,560 --> 01:44:14,960 Speaker 3: a college dropout or was like going to you know, 2202 01:44:15,120 --> 01:44:17,040 Speaker 3: not his original college. You see the same thing with 2203 01:44:17,080 --> 01:44:19,840 Speaker 3: Thomas Matthew Crooks, the guy who tried to shoot President Trump. 2204 01:44:19,960 --> 01:44:22,599 Speaker 3: Luigi Maggioni was a guy who went to the Ivy 2205 01:44:22,680 --> 01:44:27,280 Speaker 3: League university, was extremely privileged, and yet you know, at 2206 01:44:27,280 --> 01:44:29,600 Speaker 3: the same time he also you know, goes off the 2207 01:44:29,600 --> 01:44:32,280 Speaker 3: deep end, and it's like off in Japan trying to 2208 01:44:32,280 --> 01:44:35,200 Speaker 3: find himself in doing drugs, and so when you live 2209 01:44:35,280 --> 01:44:40,160 Speaker 3: through these times of upheaval, it leads to radical decisions 2210 01:44:40,160 --> 01:44:42,719 Speaker 3: and radical acts. And so I'm not saying that. 2211 01:44:42,640 --> 01:44:44,400 Speaker 2: You know, oh, we'll just stop that and it all 2212 01:44:44,439 --> 01:44:46,720 Speaker 2: go away. No, But you know, as. 2213 01:44:46,479 --> 01:44:49,439 Speaker 3: As a movement, it's something where when Blake is talking 2214 01:44:49,439 --> 01:44:51,800 Speaker 3: about how we need more housing, when we need to 2215 01:44:51,800 --> 01:44:54,679 Speaker 3: actually relieve some of these economic pressures that have been faced, 2216 01:44:55,080 --> 01:44:59,080 Speaker 3: that I actually think that all in the you know, 2217 01:44:59,160 --> 01:45:01,240 Speaker 3: in the wash, it will actually help. 2218 01:45:01,120 --> 01:45:04,760 Speaker 2: With the political violence problem. Okay. And with that being said, 2219 01:45:05,640 --> 01:45:07,000 Speaker 2: that's sort of in the long term. 2220 01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:09,679 Speaker 3: In the short term, you have to crack down very 2221 01:45:09,840 --> 01:45:14,000 Speaker 3: very severely on anyone who's committing or planning political violence. 2222 01:45:14,080 --> 01:45:15,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely. 2223 01:45:16,760 --> 01:45:20,080 Speaker 10: One last thing on that is with it could be 2224 01:45:20,160 --> 01:45:23,360 Speaker 10: argued or like talked about about like certain economic policies 2225 01:45:23,400 --> 01:45:25,479 Speaker 10: and then certain ways that the direction is headed. And 2226 01:45:25,520 --> 01:45:29,240 Speaker 10: then with the Internet, people have been increasingly detached from 2227 01:45:29,280 --> 01:45:32,720 Speaker 10: like in person connections and like not in their communities. 2228 01:45:35,120 --> 01:45:38,960 Speaker 10: How would you say that is affected like people turning 2229 01:45:38,960 --> 01:45:43,559 Speaker 10: towards like politically like violent or like radical ideas well. 2230 01:45:43,600 --> 01:45:47,120 Speaker 3: So what you're happening we've seen happen now is people's 2231 01:45:47,280 --> 01:45:50,160 Speaker 3: identities are changing in the sense that you know, people 2232 01:45:50,240 --> 01:45:52,080 Speaker 3: used to identify with Like I just told that story 2233 01:45:52,120 --> 01:45:54,559 Speaker 3: about how identified with my hometown and that was like 2234 01:45:54,640 --> 01:45:56,439 Speaker 3: a big thing for me growing up that we all 2235 01:45:56,479 --> 01:45:59,240 Speaker 3: knew each other. And then you look at how people 2236 01:45:59,280 --> 01:46:01,320 Speaker 3: live now. They were so atomized when people don't know 2237 01:46:01,320 --> 01:46:04,320 Speaker 3: their neighbors. And this is largely due towards to the 2238 01:46:04,320 --> 01:46:06,960 Speaker 3: internal migrations that have taken place as people are moving 2239 01:46:07,000 --> 01:46:09,599 Speaker 3: from from city to city to find better work over 2240 01:46:09,640 --> 01:46:12,960 Speaker 3: and over, those communities at scale are just smashed up, 2241 01:46:13,320 --> 01:46:16,000 Speaker 3: and so you're living in this situation where you know, 2242 01:46:16,040 --> 01:46:18,920 Speaker 3: people are moving to places where they don't have these 2243 01:46:18,960 --> 01:46:19,800 Speaker 3: great communities. 2244 01:46:19,840 --> 01:46:21,599 Speaker 2: So that's why. 2245 01:46:22,320 --> 01:46:24,679 Speaker 3: And I was mentioning this before that, you know, sort 2246 01:46:24,720 --> 01:46:28,080 Speaker 3: of in the wake of Charlie's murder, I've been reflecting 2247 01:46:28,120 --> 01:46:31,759 Speaker 3: on his interest and why he spends so much time 2248 01:46:32,520 --> 01:46:36,280 Speaker 3: being on campus and building campus organizations and doing it 2249 01:46:36,280 --> 01:46:38,240 Speaker 3: in person because I used to think. I used to 2250 01:46:38,280 --> 01:46:40,679 Speaker 3: think I would say, well, why not just use the internet, 2251 01:46:40,720 --> 01:46:41,880 Speaker 3: why not just use social media? 2252 01:46:41,920 --> 01:46:43,840 Speaker 2: You can do all this online. Why you know, it's 2253 01:46:43,840 --> 01:46:45,759 Speaker 2: so much time and so much effort, as the internet 2254 01:46:45,840 --> 01:46:46,520 Speaker 2: is evil. 2255 01:46:46,360 --> 01:46:49,439 Speaker 3: Jack, But no, it's it's because of this, It's because 2256 01:46:49,439 --> 01:46:52,839 Speaker 3: I realized that there's another layer to it, where Charlie 2257 01:46:52,920 --> 01:46:56,000 Speaker 3: was building human communities, and he was working to build 2258 01:46:56,120 --> 01:47:00,439 Speaker 3: human communities, and obviously, like I'd be remiss, I didn't 2259 01:47:00,439 --> 01:47:04,120 Speaker 3: say that church is a huge example of a human community, 2260 01:47:04,120 --> 01:47:06,799 Speaker 3: which obviously it's a human community that's connecting you with God, 2261 01:47:07,520 --> 01:47:11,439 Speaker 3: which is quite possibly the highest possible human community. And 2262 01:47:11,520 --> 01:47:14,360 Speaker 3: so we absolutely need to do better at building those 2263 01:47:14,640 --> 01:47:18,520 Speaker 3: human communities, human communities that connect us with God, like churches, 2264 01:47:18,840 --> 01:47:21,400 Speaker 3: but at the same time just getting to places where 2265 01:47:21,680 --> 01:47:24,960 Speaker 3: we can go out and just be in public with 2266 01:47:25,040 --> 01:47:28,400 Speaker 3: people once again, as opposed to this atomized online you 2267 01:47:28,439 --> 01:47:30,040 Speaker 3: know PDP warfare all the time. 2268 01:47:30,240 --> 01:47:35,439 Speaker 10: Yeah, as a cybersecurity student, it's really interesting, like hearing 2269 01:47:35,479 --> 01:47:38,040 Speaker 10: I guess the effects of learning about them and thank 2270 01:47:38,080 --> 01:47:42,400 Speaker 10: you for speaking on them, being here and having answering questions. 2271 01:47:42,439 --> 01:47:44,240 Speaker 2: Thank you and thank you for being patient. 2272 01:47:45,200 --> 01:47:47,760 Speaker 19: How do you guys think Blake ANDFT did this is 2273 01:47:47,800 --> 01:47:48,559 Speaker 19: the first one? 2274 01:47:48,680 --> 01:47:52,120 Speaker 2: Can you believe that I think he does?
