It's time for 0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:35.360 truth without spin. 0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:37.479 It's the Alex Marlowe Show. 0:00:38.440 --> 0:00:40.760 Is the Alex marlow Show. I'm glad you're here. We 0:00:40.840 --> 0:00:42.600 had a lot to do today. We got some woke 0:00:42.720 --> 0:00:46.360 Pope updates, going full schizophrenic on the war in Iran. 0:00:46.440 --> 0:00:49.560 I'll tell you about that momentarily. And then we've got 0:00:49.560 --> 0:00:53.479 some fresh James Tallerico clips, the fake Christian who's running 0:00:53.560 --> 0:00:56.920 for Senate in Texas, trying to upend that red state 0:00:57.080 --> 0:00:58.840 and trying to take it over for the Democrat. I 0:00:58.880 --> 0:01:01.800 don't think it's going to work. And he has still 0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:04.319 he's got it. He's got that piece of lego that 0:01:04.400 --> 0:01:06.520 he fastens on the top of his head. I've never 0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:08.600 seen a haircut exactly like that, where it looks like 0:01:08.600 --> 0:01:11.400 a perfect oversized lego piece on his head. Still there. 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:14.200 We'll play some of him later. But of course we're 0:01:14.200 --> 0:01:15.760 going to start with where you all thought we'd start, 0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:19.200 the NFL Draft. Just kidding, this is not an NFL 0:01:19.280 --> 0:01:22.039 draft show. I'm not a big sports ball follower. I've 0:01:22.040 --> 0:01:24.040 got to follow it a little bit for the news NFL. 0:01:24.280 --> 0:01:25.840 But did all of you take off school for the 0:01:25.920 --> 0:01:28.280 NFL Draft? Those of you in the Pittsburgh area. Apparently 0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:32.000 people were canceling school, and some Pittsburgh residents that I 0:01:32.080 --> 0:01:34.640 know of told me that actually it made sense because 0:01:34.640 --> 0:01:37.679 the roads can't handle all these six hundred thousand people 0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:40.120 who went to the NFL Draft. Now why would six 0:01:40.240 --> 0:01:42.399 hundred thousand people go to the NFL Draft? I don't know, 0:01:42.440 --> 0:01:44.400 but you're free to tell me a looat Alex Marlow 0:01:44.480 --> 0:01:48.120 dot com. But we will have some gambling content in 0:01:48.160 --> 0:01:50.560 a little bit as that I think is very relevant. 0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:53.120 Hold that thought, but we'll start where you would expect 0:01:53.160 --> 0:01:55.600 me to start with his a Iran war update. 0:01:56.000 --> 0:01:57.400 And we got some good news today. 0:01:57.400 --> 0:01:59.960 We got some actually surprisingly good news as we woke 0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:03.800 up today. Iran is sending their foreign minister, a boss Arachi, 0:02:04.000 --> 0:02:06.480 to Pakistan. This is the guy who a lot of 0:02:06.600 --> 0:02:10.120 us are suspecting is actually running the country, and some 0:02:10.240 --> 0:02:12.320 of it is what I'm able to glean from the media, 0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:14.680 and some of it's from what I'm able to glean 0:02:14.680 --> 0:02:17.480 from sources. I will tell you the best sources I've 0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:20.520 got is telling me that the crippled moch To bah 0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:23.600 Khamani actually is in charge, partially because he's so weak 0:02:23.639 --> 0:02:27.000 and lame, and Arachi, who is the foreign minister, might 0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:29.160 be the person with the most power at the moment, 0:02:29.880 --> 0:02:32.360 and so getting conflicting sources. But part of this is 0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:35.320 the nature of what Trump is exploited, is that what 0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:37.000 we were told and I was told this to my 0:02:37.040 --> 0:02:41.000 face and BBC from an Iranian propagandist, that Iran is 0:02:41.040 --> 0:02:45.440 so unified they are never to be divided their entire leadership. 0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:49.520 There's layers and layers and layers of full agreement and 0:02:49.600 --> 0:02:52.200 they will always stand strong and be together. But Trump 0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:55.200 that truth bond I led yesterday show with suggested that 0:02:55.240 --> 0:02:57.920 there actually is some division with the Iranians, and we 0:02:57.960 --> 0:03:01.000 don't really know exactly who's in charge, and they're scrambling 0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:03.480 to get organized and to be able to negotiate before 0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:07.800 Trump starts bombing a lot of their strategic energy producing sites, 0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:11.120 as has been I think the plan. We also learned 0:03:11.919 --> 0:03:16.000 that President Trump has now put now three US aircraft 0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:17.920 carriers in the region, which is a record. I think 0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:20.119 we've ever had three in that region before, at least 0:03:20.120 --> 0:03:22.880 not in recent memory, suggesting that he is prepared to 0:03:23.040 --> 0:03:26.720 go crazy if Iran does not cooperate, and I think 0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:29.440 more and more I think the public is coming to 0:03:29.560 --> 0:03:31.840 Trump's side. I honestly believe this. I don't know if 0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:33.799 there's pulling data to back it up, but I will 0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:36.080 tell you the chatter online as people are starting to 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:38.320 finally get the message that I've been bringing to you 0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:40.280 on this show from day one, which is that so 0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:42.960 long as Iran intends to pursue nuclear weapons, that is 0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:45.160 an eminent threat to the United States of America, and 0:03:45.200 --> 0:03:46.960 we cannot allow for that to happen. We need to 0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:51.720 lock in the full and total destruction of Iran's nuclear capabilities, 0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:53.800 and that will be a win, and then Trump can 0:03:53.880 --> 0:03:55.480 tout it as a win, and then things will go 0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:59.560 back to thriving. We'll go back to thriving, we go 0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:02.160 back to reading the Golden Era. So we've got Steve 0:04:02.160 --> 0:04:06.440 wi Kaffin, Jared Kushner supposedly now going to Pakistan for talks. 0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:08.960 There are reports that Jade Vance might go there. I 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:10.960 don't know if the Vice president is going to go there, 0:04:11.000 --> 0:04:13.080 but the Vice President is. You know, he speaks very 0:04:13.080 --> 0:04:15.320 clearly the public on this. He did speak about this 0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:18.039 yesterday and he said specifically what I was saying, which 0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:23.080 is that we did create massive damage for Aron's nuclear capabilities, 0:04:23.160 --> 0:04:25.400 but we need to make sure that we destroy them indefinitely, 0:04:25.680 --> 0:04:28.520 and that's the goal. We'll accept nothing less, and then 0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:30.960 we will come home and focus on domestic stuff. And 0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:32.919 that's got to be the name of the game. I 0:04:32.920 --> 0:04:35.359 think the President sees this pretty clearly. He seems pretty 0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:37.920 calm during interviews, and he's in the Oval office during 0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:42.560 a press event, and I like the attitude coming out 0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:44.640 of our Department of War. Yes it is the Department 0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:46.719 of War. We like a peace through strength approach. So 0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:49.400 we like to remind people we will do war and 0:04:49.440 --> 0:04:50.760 we will do it hard. 0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:52.159 Against you if need be. 0:04:52.839 --> 0:04:54.640 I got some audio. Let's play the president. Let's play 0:04:54.640 --> 0:04:55.320 cut seven. 0:04:55.760 --> 0:04:59.679 First, guys, sir, would you use a nuclear weapon against John? 0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:01.880 You this is not social No, you. 0:05:01.839 --> 0:05:02.640 Say, we don't need this. 0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:05.200 Why do I need it? Why would a stupid question 0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:07.039 like that be asked? Do you know why would I 0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:10.520 Why would I use a nuclear weapon? We've totally, in 0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:14.159 a very conventional way decimated them without it. Now I 0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:17.239 wouldn't use it. A nuclear weapon should never be allowed 0:05:17.240 --> 0:05:18.120 to be used by anybo. 0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:20.320 Like it's I want to cut off just because my 0:05:20.360 --> 0:05:22.040 audio is breaking up. I don't know if it's breaking 0:05:22.080 --> 0:05:24.520 up for the audience. But the reporter asked, would you 0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:26.360 use a nuclear weapon against Iran? 0:05:26.440 --> 0:05:29.160 And Trump says, no, we don't need it. Why would a. 0:05:29.200 --> 0:05:31.839 Stupid question like that be asked? A nuclear weapon should 0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:34.279 never be allowed to be used by anybody. And just 0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:36.840 remember when Trump says this stuff, he's it's always our 0:05:36.920 --> 0:05:40.680 the deal. He's always leading as a president, and he's 0:05:40.720 --> 0:05:43.719 not being literal with people. But I like this approach 0:05:43.839 --> 0:05:46.359 because it gives him the moral high ground to say that. 0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:48.400 Of course, I do believe Trump would use a nuclear 0:05:48.400 --> 0:05:51.719 weapon if it was really necessary, but the suggestion that 0:05:52.040 --> 0:05:55.360 the we would escalate to that level with Iran does 0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:57.880 not help peace. And obviously a reporter asking that question 0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:08.240 questions in the oval office of the President, then presumably 0:06:08.360 --> 0:06:09.359 that you would understand that. 0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:10.240 Trump would not do that. 0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:11.880 So I think he's right to call it the reporter, 0:06:12.160 --> 0:06:13.760 and I love when he calls out the fake news, 0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:16.400 which is ever more the enemy of the people. 0:06:17.120 --> 0:06:30.240 I this should not be. 0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:35.640 The America's fight alone. We barely use the strait of 0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:39.279 horror moves as a country. Our energy doesn't flow through there, 0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:43.760 and we have plenty of energy. Just look at the 0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:45.320 new Global Congo line. 0:06:46.520 --> 0:06:48.760 All right, we'll just switch an audio backup, audit. This 0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:50.520 is this is kykach. If this works out, this is 0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:52.440 going to be incredible. Okay, guys, let me know if 0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:54.039 you started hearing me double and I can address that 0:06:54.120 --> 0:06:54.559 as well. 0:06:55.040 --> 0:06:56.520 Is the do you have my audio now? 0:06:57.360 --> 0:06:57.880 Is good? 0:06:58.000 --> 0:06:58.279 Okay? 0:06:58.320 --> 0:07:01.240 Well, okay, you know what the magic live radio? Okay, 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:03.960 so the president, we were playing some secretary of where. Yeah, 0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:05.360 let's just keep rolling. I'll respond to that. 0:07:05.440 --> 0:07:06.160 Let's keep rolling back. 0:07:06.160 --> 0:07:11.320 Peted to Texas a beautiful picture. Europe and Asia have 0:07:11.440 --> 0:07:15.800 benefited from our protection for decades. But the time for 0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:20.400 free riding is over. America and the free world deserve 0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:24.920 allies who are capable, who are loyal. And you understand 0:07:24.920 --> 0:07:27.480 that being an ally is not a one way street, 0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:32.080 It's a two way street. We are not counting on Europe, 0:07:33.160 --> 0:07:35.560 but they need the Strait of Horror moves much more 0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:38.880 than we do, and might want to start doing less 0:07:39.120 --> 0:07:43.280 talking and having less fancy conferences in Europe and getting 0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:43.640 a boat. 0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:48.680 So this is pretty interesting because Europe is now standing 0:07:48.720 --> 0:07:50.960 up and acting like they want to help after trying 0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:54.400 to undermine Trump's efforts. I was really amused by Keir 0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:58.680 Starmer and Emmanuel mccron had a summit to discuss how 0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:00.680 to get the Strait of Our Moves open right as 0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:03.280 Trump was reopening it. As if they're relevant at all, 0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:08.120 they always end up taking the side of whatever is 0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:10.800 the weakest and laymous side, partially because they're not capable 0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:13.840 of helping. They don't have the leadership, their military capabilities 0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:18.520 are fading rapidly, but Europe's influence on the world stage 0:08:18.560 --> 0:08:22.000 is rapidly declining, and I'm very excited for the day 0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:23.840 when we stop caring about these people and we just 0:08:23.880 --> 0:08:25.680 start making fun of them. It's very sad to me, 0:08:25.840 --> 0:08:28.600 of course, as someone with European heritage and learning a 0:08:28.640 --> 0:08:31.480 lot of European history and enjoying it growing up, I 0:08:31.880 --> 0:08:34.960 kind of am wistful for a day where Europe was 0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:37.040 a big player on the world stage, but they just 0:08:37.080 --> 0:08:39.400 continue to disgrace themselves over and over again. And if 0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:43.640 Trump does secure this piece with only the undermining of 0:08:43.679 --> 0:08:46.560 the NATO nations, then I think this not only weakens NATO, 0:08:46.640 --> 0:08:48.000 it reagons all of Europe. 0:08:48.200 --> 0:08:50.920 I got one more from the Secretary of War. Let's 0:08:50.920 --> 0:08:52.000 play cut nine. Please. 0:08:52.360 --> 0:08:55.040 The vessels that the Iranians seized in recent days, a 0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:59.240 couple of them. They're not American ships, they're not Israelis ships. 0:09:00.040 --> 0:09:04.520 They're just random ships that drove where they drove their 0:09:04.559 --> 0:09:07.120 little speedboats up to and shot at those ships with 0:09:07.160 --> 0:09:11.040 EIGHTK forty sevens. Anyone with a speedboat, a gun and 0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:15.920 the wrong intentions can do that. They know that we, 0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:19.480 the United States of America, control the flow of global shipping, 0:09:20.040 --> 0:09:24.199 and we know that they know their real navy is 0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:25.600 at the bottom of the Arabian Gulf. 0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:29.280 Yeah, that's true, and then we destroy their real navy. 0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:32.000 And one thing that's noteworthy here is that a lot 0:09:32.000 --> 0:09:35.319 of these reports yesterday that Iran was firing on American ships, 0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:39.439 there are apparently civilian ships that they weren't necessarily part of, 0:09:40.280 --> 0:09:42.679 or they were non military ships. In general, because most 0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:45.600 of the ships that are passing through are not military ships, 0:09:45.640 --> 0:09:48.199 and so Iran was basically just doing some sort of 0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:50.520 a show of forth so that they could go out 0:09:50.520 --> 0:09:52.640 to their people and say that they're being aggressive against 0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:55.400 America when we know they're at a point of incredible weakness. 0:09:55.640 --> 0:09:58.240 Trump sees this clearly, and that's why I'm hoping we're 0:09:58.240 --> 0:09:59.160 going to get a piece. 0:09:58.960 --> 0:09:59.760 Maybe this weekend. 0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:03.640 Maybe this weekend, but just in case, and in fact, 0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:06.480 just a hedge against everything is buying precious metals.

Trump 0:11:13.559 --> 0:11:16.160 claims that eight young women are going to be executed 0:11:16.400 --> 0:11:19.240 a couple of days ago, and he made a request 0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:22.160 to Iran, a moral request. He said that they not 0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:25.000 be executed, and now they're going to be released completely. 0:11:25.679 --> 0:11:28.160 I don't know whether or not to believe the President 0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:30.280 on this. I am inclined to believe him, and if so, 0:11:30.559 --> 0:11:32.839 that's pretty remarkable that he's able to pull some of 0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:35.760 the stuff off, and he is often because I think 0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:38.360 he's got a unique gift to see people's perspectives and 0:11:38.400 --> 0:11:41.959 to negotiate with them, with best intentions, and I think 0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:43.920 this is unique to him. He wrote the Art of 0:11:43.960 --> 0:11:45.679 the Deal and it's not a joke that he wrote it. 0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:48.440 So other things that he's pointed out that I think 0:11:48.440 --> 0:11:52.440 are potential value add to the war in Iran Cut seventeen. 0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:55.040 Please regarding Israel and Lebanon, gentlemen. 0:11:55.760 --> 0:11:58.560 We had a great meeting with the very high officials 0:11:58.559 --> 0:12:02.680 of Lebanon and very high officials of Israel, and we 0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:06.800 think that the President of Lebanon and the Prime Minister 0:12:06.840 --> 0:12:08.840 of visual over the next couple of weeks will be 0:12:08.920 --> 0:12:12.840 coming here. They've agreed to an additional three weeks of 0:12:14.640 --> 0:12:18.679 I guess no firing, cease fire, no more firing, let's see. 0:12:18.920 --> 0:12:19.880 We hope that happens. 0:12:19.880 --> 0:12:21.679 Not going to happen between them, but they do have 0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:27.760 Hezbolah to think about, and we're going to be working 0:12:27.840 --> 0:12:32.240 with Lebanon to get things straightened out in that country. 0:12:32.240 --> 0:12:35.000 I really believe it's something we can do pretty easily. 0:12:36.800 --> 0:12:38.200 I think if there's a German that they could do, it's 0:12:38.240 --> 0:12:38.880 President Trump. 0:12:39.160 --> 0:12:41.920 And it's noteworthy that Lebanon is real of a beef 0:12:41.920 --> 0:12:45.199 that's gone on for half a century, and it's very 0:12:45.200 --> 0:12:48.040 complicated it's Hesbla having so much power, But I think 0:12:48.040 --> 0:12:51.520 once Iran is neutralized in the region, then Hesbela's power 0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:53.920 is going to diminish greatly and there is a chance 0:12:54.000 --> 0:12:55.560 for a peace. And it's one of these things that 0:12:55.600 --> 0:12:58.319 would have been unthinkable with any other president, and particularly 0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:00.920 any president that did not have aggressive action against Iran 0:13:01.320 --> 0:13:03.680 but still maintaining the bral high ground, which Trump is, 0:13:03.720 --> 0:13:06.480 I think done without committing ground troops and without committing 0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:10.720 some sort of regime change, a prolonged American involvement in 0:13:10.800 --> 0:13:12.839 the area. Just basically, We're just going to be a 0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:15.360 little traffic cop, maybe take a toll every once in 0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:17.160 a while. And I think if we can do that, 0:13:17.200 --> 0:13:19.160 we can secure a lot of peace. And I think 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:22.120 this is the best could be yet to come in 0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:25.040 that region. One other thing that came up, I think 0:13:25.160 --> 0:13:27.679 is a good segue here is about our oil production. 0:13:27.920 --> 0:13:31.760 In this Oval Office meeting. Let's play cut sixteen team. 0:13:32.920 --> 0:13:35.280 A lot of ships are coming to the United States 0:13:35.320 --> 0:13:39.160 and they're using the United States instead of the foremost 0:13:39.200 --> 0:13:44.200 straight amazing things are happening. Our country is amazing. You know, 0:13:44.240 --> 0:13:46.320 we don't have an oil shortage. We have with drill 0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:49.959 Baby drill. We we are right now producing more oil 0:13:50.400 --> 0:13:56.240 than Saudi Arabia and Russia combined, do you know that more? 0:13:56.280 --> 0:13:58.680 And in about a year from now, we'll be doing 0:13:58.720 --> 0:14:03.040 double the level. And Venezuela has been fantastic. We have 0:14:03.040 --> 0:14:06.520 a great relationship with that country and with the people 0:14:06.559 --> 0:14:09.720 that are running the country, and we're taking out We're 0:14:09.760 --> 0:14:14.040 taken in millions of barrels of oil, millions and millions 0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:14.880 from Venezuela. 0:14:16.600 --> 0:14:18.920 What's so remarkable about this is that now Venezuela is 0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:20.560 our ally all of a sudden, he has a way 0:14:20.600 --> 0:14:22.760 of doing this where he's able to bring in new 0:14:22.800 --> 0:14:25.400 allies into the fold. And this brings me to the 0:14:25.400 --> 0:14:28.360 hottest news story of the day. You knew this was 0:14:28.400 --> 0:14:32.160 going to happen. We have our first arrest in a 0:14:32.400 --> 0:14:37.080 betting insider trading style operation. A Special Forces soldier made 0:14:37.080 --> 0:14:39.920 more than four hundred thousand dollars on poly Market, which 0:14:39.920 --> 0:14:42.280 is one of those prediction markets as a result of betting, 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:44.960 I think was thirty thousand dollars on when Maduro would 0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:46.240 be deposed. 0:14:45.920 --> 0:14:47.360 Because he knew about the raid. 0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:50.560 This came up also in the Oval Office, and Trump's 0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:53.760 response was vintage Trump unbelievable cut twelveth. 0:14:53.480 --> 0:14:59.120 Please Apparently there was a Special Forces soldier who was 0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:02.800 involved in Sure of his Way on President Madureau who 0:15:02.880 --> 0:15:07.000 was arrested by Federal berries today on suspicion of insider 0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:11.760 trading and betting on Harle market. Are you concerned that 0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:15.640 federal employees are betting on these prediction markets and potentially 0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:16.240 getting rich? 0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:20.240 Well, I don't know about it, but was he betting 0:15:20.240 --> 0:15:22.160 that they would get him or they wouldn't get him? 0:15:22.240 --> 0:15:25.920 It sounds like he was betting on his removal from office. 0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:27.120 Van Dureau would be removed. 0:15:27.840 --> 0:15:29.080 He was involved in the operation. 0:15:29.040 --> 0:15:31.560 It's like Peter Rose betting on his own team. And 0:15:32.160 --> 0:15:34.200 like Peter Rose, Pete Rose, he kept him out of 0:15:34.200 --> 0:15:36.720 the Hall of Fame because he bet on his own team. Now, 0:15:36.760 --> 0:15:39.120 if he bet against his team, that would be no good, 0:15:39.160 --> 0:15:41.440 but he bet on his own team. 0:15:41.760 --> 0:15:44.240 I will give you my take on the betting itself 0:15:44.360 --> 0:15:45.960 after the break, but I will tell you that comment 0:15:46.000 --> 0:15:46.760 from President Trump. 0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:49.320 He's a superager. He's the sharpest, he's the funniest. 0:15:49.440 --> 0:15:52.640 That he pulled that analysis on the spot still never 0:15:52.640 --> 0:15:55.360 ceased to amaze me. Clearly the smartest president we've had 0:15:55.360 --> 0:15:57.520 in my lifetime by a mile. But I'm gonna tell 0:15:57.520 --> 0:15:59.160 you right now, but what I'm doing for my health 0:15:59.200 --> 0:16:01.960 this is pure MA. I've been using red light therapy 0:16:02.000 --> 0:16:04.840 at convenient device called the super Palm ten fifty from 0:16:04.920 --> 0:16:08.320 SunPower Led. And I'm using this because it reduces the 0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:11.040 inflammation in my back and my knee. This PBM device, 0:16:11.080 --> 0:16:15.560 it's handheld red light therapy photo biomodulation, that's the fancy 0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:17.080 word for it, but it's red and near and for 0:16:17.120 --> 0:16:20.239 red light gets into your cells where pain and inflammation 0:16:20.520 --> 0:16:22.720 takes place. And you can use it for all sorts 0:16:22.720 --> 0:16:26.920 of things from arthritis to gout. There's even a helmet 0:16:27.200 --> 0:16:30.360 for if you have swelling in your skull. So it's 0:16:30.400 --> 0:16:33.040 pretty remarkable stuff from Tom Kerber, the CEO over there. 0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:37.600 And it's completely drug free, no doctor's offices, no side effects, 0:16:37.720 --> 0:16:38.240 use it right. 0:16:38.120 --> 0:16:39.640 In your own home. Takes a few minutes a day. 0:16:40.040 --> 0:16:43.400 Arthritis, joint pain, muscle aches, all the above. This might 0:16:43.440 --> 0:16:45.680 be exactly what you need for a MAHA solution to 0:16:45.720 --> 0:16:48.040 your health issues. It's got a patent pending cooling system 0:16:48.080 --> 0:16:50.000 so it doesn't overheat. I love this stuff. I use 0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:52.360 it all the time. Somepowerled dot com. It's part of 0:16:52.440 --> 0:16:55.920 the way I feel better, Marlow gets you ten percent 0:16:55.960 --> 0:16:59.640 off the code Marlow at sunpowerled dot com. 0:16:59.680 --> 0:17:01.200 Feel better, Be better? 0:17:11.400 --> 0:17:11.719 All right? 0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:13.640 I told you i'd give you my take on. 0:17:13.800 --> 0:17:16.600 The US soldier involved in the Maduro Ray charged with 0:17:16.680 --> 0:17:17.800 betting on the operation. 0:17:18.840 --> 0:17:20.480 I don't think it's good. I don't think it's good. 0:17:20.520 --> 0:17:22.879 I think it's a very odd place to start prosecuting 0:17:22.880 --> 0:17:26.520 people for this sort of insider trading esque behavior because 0:17:26.600 --> 0:17:29.640 it does feel like this is a hero who did 0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:32.280 a measurable good for the planet and cashing in on it. 0:17:32.400 --> 0:17:33.919 I don't mind that he made some money off of it, 0:17:34.000 --> 0:17:36.560 but I do I don't like the idea that people 0:17:36.640 --> 0:17:40.840 who are in charge of major policies are able to 0:17:41.119 --> 0:17:43.080 make money off of it in these prediction markets. 0:17:43.600 --> 0:17:45.040 It strikes me as unethical. 0:17:45.080 --> 0:17:47.240 It also strikes me as again, I'm trying to get 0:17:47.280 --> 0:17:50.360 people to not get hooked on online gambling. I think 0:17:50.400 --> 0:17:53.679 that online gambling is highly highly highly addictive, is not 0:17:53.720 --> 0:17:56.520 really productive for society as well, doesn't help you build 0:17:56.520 --> 0:17:58.040 a meaningful life, and I think you can go down 0:17:58.080 --> 0:17:59.760 some real rabbit holes. A lot of people are going 0:17:59.800 --> 0:18:01.919 to their lives over this stuff trying to get an 0:18:02.080 --> 0:18:04.440 edge in the prediction market game. And I don't like 0:18:04.480 --> 0:18:07.040 the idea of people using insider information to try to 0:18:07.040 --> 0:18:10.760 make money from other unsuspecting, innocent people. And I just 0:18:10.800 --> 0:18:12.960 don't like that approach to anything. So I do think 0:18:13.080 --> 0:18:16.159 inevitably this there is going to be a crackdown, but 0:18:16.240 --> 0:18:18.280 it is a very curious place to start that the 0:18:18.320 --> 0:18:22.000 first insider trading type prediction market prosecution that we're going 0:18:22.040 --> 0:18:25.640 to see is involving a military hero who probably did 0:18:25.640 --> 0:18:29.359 a lot of good in the process. So a successful 0:18:29.440 --> 0:18:32.200 Maduro regime that's a plus one hundred out of ten 0:18:32.240 --> 0:18:35.840 for me. The betting on it is a negative one 0:18:35.840 --> 0:18:37.760 out of ten for me, So it's a just note 0:18:37.800 --> 0:18:40.240 the scale. But overall, we got to crack down on 0:18:40.280 --> 0:18:42.040 some of this stuff and discouraging people from doing the 0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:45.800 online gambling is good. But Trump's reaction to it when 0:18:45.880 --> 0:18:49.359 he said that this is like Pete Rose betting on 0:18:49.359 --> 0:18:52.040 his own team, it is just full subscribe to that 0:18:52.560 --> 0:18:55.159 a wonderful point. And I can't believe Trump pulled that 0:18:55.160 --> 0:18:58.760 that quickly. Fun fact in a former life, when I 0:18:58.800 --> 0:19:02.720 was a waiter Sisley Restaurant in Sherman Oaks, California. Pete 0:19:02.760 --> 0:19:05.159 Rose used to come in every day and he was 0:19:05.280 --> 0:19:07.600 the friendliest guy. He would sign everything for people it 0:19:07.640 --> 0:19:10.200 would come up, and he was known for selling signatures too. 0:19:10.200 --> 0:19:13.000 But he would sit there for lunch every day, very portly, 0:19:13.040 --> 0:19:15.439 wear Hawaiian shirt and seemed like a nice guy. So 0:19:15.480 --> 0:19:18.840 and I think was very maga, really good about pressing 0:19:18.840 --> 0:19:20.200 the flash with the fans. 0:19:20.160 --> 0:19:21.920 And absolutely should have been in the Hall of Fame. 0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:25.440 And has that been restored If it hasn't been, again, 0:19:25.680 --> 0:19:27.920
