Plus we'll 66 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 2: talk about the Meta had shut down its internal research 67 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 2: which showed in fact, social media is dangerous. You know, 68 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 2: this reminds me of the tobacco company litigation, you know, 69 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 2: their internal studies. At least, as I recall the facts 70 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 2: of that, tobacco companies knew that their products were dams 71 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 2: for years, yet they hid the research and they did 72 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 2: everything they could to tell you that no, don't believe 73 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: what they're saying, that some cigarettes aren't as bad as 74 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 2: they're telling you. Well, they hit internal research which showed 75 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 2: the exact opposite of what was coming out of their 76 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 2: mouth as one of the reasons they were found liable. 77 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 2: So Meta, rather than get the conclusive data, shut down 78 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 2: its internal research which was starting to show that it 79 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 2: was dangerous for our children, among others, and Jesu Louis 80 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 2: do I have a terrible shit if you get a minute, 81 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 2: because I don't know if I'll be able to get 82 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 2: to it. Here's important reading for anyone who has anybody 83 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 2: in their world, their sphere of influence, who perhaps is 84 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 2: under the age of eighteen. Teens are saying tearful goodbyes 85 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 2: to their AI companions. That is the headline Wall Street Journal. 86 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 2: Georgia Wells, author of the article chatbot maker Character AI 87 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,840 Speaker 2: just one of the chatbots, is cutting off access to teens, 88 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 2: citing mental health concerns and the accounts of these teenagers 89 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 2: and how much time they spend interc acting with artificial 90 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 2: intelligence as their friends. This stuff is so real that 91 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 2: I guess they lose connection with reality. That they're talking 92 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 2: to ones and zero's artificially generated contact, and they're connected 93 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 2: to it, and they like need it and long for it. 94 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 2: And now they find out that they're fake friends online. 95 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 2: These characters that they create and talk to for hours 96 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 2: and hours at a time are being cut off and 97 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 2: they're struggling emotionally. Oh my god, I'm not gonna be 98 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 2: able to interact with character AI anymore. Yeah, You're not 99 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 2: gonna be an interact with a computer anymore. Do you 100 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 2: feel they do feel a sense of longing and belonging 101 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 2: because they're interacting with effectively no one. This is scary, 102 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:46,919 Speaker 2: scary stuff, you know. And the more disconnected a child is, 103 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 2: the fewer friends a child has, the more socially awkward 104 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 2: a child has, the more blankly is going to be 105 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 2: brought here or she is going to be sucked into 106 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 2: this reality. God bless America. We are heading down a 107 00:05:57,760 --> 00:05:59,799 Speaker 2: wrong path here, and talk a lot about that today. 108 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 2: We'll get a little bit of information from Dave Hatter 109 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 2: at six point thirty on that one as well.

I shared a screen shot about a 160 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 2: page for the popular were described as popular. I guess 161 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 2: nine hundred and seventy eight thousand plus users or followers 162 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 2: makes it quote unquote popular. It's labeled Republicans against Trump, 163 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 2: and it's based in Austria. So after being caught, I 164 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 2: went I mentioned a VPN A moment ago. They say 165 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 2: accounts posing as US citizens started using a VPN account 166 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 2: to appear as if they are in the United States. 167 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 2: If you're not familiar with VPNs, they're pretty genius. So 168 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 2: let's say, for example, you're sitting in a state where 169 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,439 Speaker 2: they've banned access to online pornography for people under the 170 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 2: age of eighteen, requiring a verification. Let's say that state 171 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 2: is all pick one, Kentucky. You're in Kentucky. Your IP 172 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 2: address shows you're in Kentucky. If you log into a VPN, 173 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 2: you can choose literally any country in the war. Not 174 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 2: literally any country, but almost any country in the world. 175 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 2: To pretend is if you're well logging in and out 176 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 2: from that, the IP address shows up there. So Illinois 177 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 2: doesn't have a prohibition against younger people on the age 178 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,559 Speaker 2: of eighteen logging into porn sites. Just pretend you're in 179 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 2: Chicago and you won't be faced with the challenge anymore. 180 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 2: Same thing here, you're in Bangladesh. You're stirring the pot 181 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 2: of division. Well, just make it look like you're in 182 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 2: Texas with a VPN. So with that in mind, they started, well, 183 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 2: there's an they put an exclamation point next to the 184 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 2: account's location. So if you see an exclamation point under 185 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:30,199 Speaker 2: that information page, they're using a VPN. How about that 186 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 2: exclamation point next to the United States in the about 187 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 2: page for that for example, Republicans against Trump account shows 188 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 2: that at the time of the writing, the account was 189 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 2: using a VPN. If there's no exclamation point, the user 190 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,839 Speaker 2: is seeing the real location for the account. So when 191 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 2: you're going through this feature you see an exclamation point, 192 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 2: red flag, maybe not follow that particular person, or at 193 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 2: least enter into the realm of open eyes, knowing full 194 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 2: well that that person maybe in North Korea or something. 195 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 2: Accorded to one who wrote one of the most openly 196 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 2: racist accounts toward Indians, posing an American has actually run 197 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:17,319 Speaker 2: from Bangladesh, showed the screenshot of the about page for 198 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 2: an account dubbed America first sixty seven thousand, almost sixty 199 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 2: eight thousand followers is actually in Bangladesh.

American guy 226 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 2: is not actually an American guy.

And I 263 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 2: get to put the lawnmower away till springtime. Speaking of 264 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 2: a little minor tech article in the remaining a couple 265 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 2: of minutes we got here abb some phone calls Representative 266 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 2: Eric Swawell California. He's running for governor of the state 267 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 2: of California, along with a whole bunch of other people. 268 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 2: Here you go. What do you think of this proposal? 269 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 2: Swallaw said Corner of The Washington Examiner, reporting, if we 270 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 2: can do our taxes, make our healthcare appointments, you know, 271 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 2: essentially do your banking online, you should be able to 272 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 2: vote by phone. I don't see any problems with that, 273 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 2: especially on the heels of that X article. Make it safe, 274 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 2: make it secure. But it's actually already happening all over 275 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 2: the United States. Well that's not necessarily true. There are 276 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 2: some jurisdictions have done limited to testing of mobile slash 277 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 2: phone based voting, but mainly for military and overseas voters. 278 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 2: It's reported pilot programs tested in West Virginia, Utah, Colorado, 279 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 2: and parts of Alaska. But no one is offering full 280 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 2: vote by phone elections. Why. Security concerns, reliability concerns, and 281 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 2: of course auditing concerns. Everybody out there who thinks there 282 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 2: should be a formal paper ballot evidence of how you voted, 283 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 2: just in case there's a glitch. Yeah, phone voting wouldn't 284 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 2: provide that. And get a load of this one. It 285 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 2: doubles down on stupid. I want to make a I 286 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 2: want us to max out democracy. Go ahead and use 287 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 2: your imagination to figure out what the hell that means. 288 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 2: He said. Also, as it relates to democracy, if you 289 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,439 Speaker 2: wait in line for thirty minutes or more, if you 290 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 2: do want to vote in person, I think you should 291 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 2: find every county for every minute that a person has 292 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 2: to wait longer. That's a bizarre idea waiting in line 293 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 2: more than thirty minutes resulting. Okay, you know as dumb 294 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 2: as I think it is conceptually, because who knows. You 295 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 2: go to the polling places. Sometimes you go there's no 296 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:19,119 Speaker 2: one in line. Sometimes you go like during lunch hour 297 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 2: and everybody's there. It's gonna take a little bit longer 298 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:24,360 Speaker 2: to vote. But where's this thirty minutes come from, mister Swallwell? 299 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:26,919 Speaker 2: And what do you do you get? You get a 300 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 2: punch card. When you get in line, you punch a 301 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,640 Speaker 2: card like you're timing in it. We're clocking in at work. 302 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 2: And then when you go to vote, you punch it again. 303 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 2: And if it's over thirty minutes, we're going to write 304 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,640 Speaker 2: down the number of minutes that you have waited beyond 305 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 2: thirty and then compile the fines and make the county 306 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 2: pay for it. Now, especially in a time when you 307 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 2: have voluntary poll workers, basically it's an I will call 308 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:50,919 Speaker 2: it an unpaid position because for the eighteen or so 309 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 2: hours you actually work, you aren't paid even minimum wage. 310 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 2: But that's okay, I considered a voluntary thing. You're doing 311 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 2: your civic duty in public service. You know, we have 312 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 2: a difficult time even filling and getting enough poll workers. 313 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 2: So for lack of people wanting to work the polls, 314 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 2: you might run into a situation where it's going to 315 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 2: take you longer than thirty minutes to vote. Now, whose 316 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 2: fault is that? Is it a problem with the system anyway? 317 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 2: I don't think he's going to get elected governor. That's 318 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,360 Speaker 2: I'm just doing a tea. Leave reading on that one. 319 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 2: Find people or find the counties. Five twenty six fifty 320 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 2: five KARSD talk station. Got local stories and little phone calls. 321 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 2: Either way, we go be right back fifty five the 322 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 2: talk station.

Oh, 340 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,919 Speaker 5: if you if you want to fill up before it 341 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 5: is your big Thanksgiving trip, and you're not too far away, 342 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 5: that's a great place to get guessed. Tomas billed too. 343 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 5: I think I saw one. 344 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 2: So yeah, I hope diesels. I hope diesel is also 345 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 2: coming down. 346 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 5: Not not as low, not as low as unloaded, but yeah, 347 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 5: it's never. 348 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 2: Ever as low as unlid. I just hope it's going 349 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 2: to commensurate a decrease in price, because of course that 350 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,360 Speaker 2: directly impacts a lot of what we eat and consume 351 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 2: because for shipping costs. So yeah, if you're looking for 352 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 2: an inflationary for inflationary relief, there's one right there in front. 353 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 5: Of you, right, And all these companies are just looking 354 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 5: for a good reason to lower their prices in ports, 355 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 5: so that I mean it. It takes a it takes 356 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 5: a shift in the wind for them to raise their prices, 357 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 5: but to bring them down or to stop raising them 358 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 5: is like an act of Congress. In fact, acts of 359 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:23,679 Speaker 5: Congress only make things go up, right. 360 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, Well, at least at least we have the 361 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 2: Departments of Weights and Measures which prevents the shrink inflation. 362 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 2: A gala gas must be a gallon, you know, it 363 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 2: can't be three quarters of a gallon at a gallon. 364 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 5: We hope, so yeah, we hope. 365 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 1: So right. 366 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 5: So, you know, your conversation about these these bots on 367 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 5: x and other social media things make it makes me 368 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 5: think that, you know, question, what what is it we 369 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 5: are basing our opinions on. Each individual person has to 370 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:01,719 Speaker 5: answer this question for themselves and how solid are you 371 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 5: in your opinion? So if you're basing your opinion on 372 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,920 Speaker 5: other people's opinions, well you've got a world of trouble there. 373 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 5: Speaking of shifting wins, I mean today, it could be 374 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 5: one day, then you hear something else tomorrow, and oh 375 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 5: my god, that these people think that you have to 376 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,920 Speaker 5: come up with a conclusion of your own, and you 377 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 5: do have to listen to other people's opinions. You got 378 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 5: to weigh wigh information and hopefully you're trying to find 379 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 5: trusted sources, but then you got to determine whether or 380 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 5: not the source of information is trustworthy or whatever. So 381 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 5: there's a lot of information out there. One of the 382 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 5: reasons why people decide to stick your head into saying 383 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 5: that don't even pay attention to it. 384 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,919 Speaker 2: Well, that is true, but think about the foundation. You 385 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 2: need to engage in what I consider to be a 386 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 2: logical and reasonable exercise when weighing the value of one 387 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 2: opinion or another. If you're talking about matters of the economy, 388 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,919 Speaker 2: you've got Kingsan economists, you've got your freedoman economists. You 389 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,159 Speaker 2: know your Austrian school of economy. You have to be 390 00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,640 Speaker 2: able to apply these general concepts. You know the laws 391 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 2: of line demand. If somebody's screaming to you about giving 392 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 2: you stuff and things and saying it's going to be free, 393 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,120 Speaker 2: and you don't have enough sense to know that free 394 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 2: is not free. It usually means the taxpayer dollars are 395 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 2: paying for it, then you can't evaluate it from that standpoint. 396 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 2: Ethics and morals also play into it. Is a guy 397 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 2: a woman if they say they are, I would argue, 398 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 2: you know, because I understand about genetics and chromosomes, and 399 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 2: you can't tell me you can turn yourself into the 400 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 2: opposite sex merely by uttering the words I'm an opposite 401 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 2: I'm the opposite sex. So there's some logical and reasonable application. 402 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 2: Maybe that ethical and moral foundation includes some aspect of religion. 403 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 2: Some of us are born and raised in families with religion, 404 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 2: different religions, different religions, different ethical and moral applications. See, 405 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 2: you gotta be able to apply a foundation to engage 406 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 2: in this exercise. And basically, from everything I've learned, and 407 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 2: there's another article about it today, our children are not 408 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 2: engaging in the logical exercise. They're not involved in thinking. 409 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 2: They are being told and just provided something without an analysis. 410 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 2: This is why I always argue about the Socratic method 411 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 2: being so valuable and what I love so much about 412 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 2: college and law school. That's how you get into that process, 413 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 2: the back and forth, questioning, pressing the margins, engaging in thought. 414 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,199 Speaker 2: Somebody comes up with an idea and you exchange ideas 415 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 2: about that idea. But if you don't have those foundational skills, 416 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 2: you're easily going to be swayed by somebody apparently in Bangladesh. 417 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, you're easily going to be swayed if all you're 418 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 5: doing is is dealing with your emotions. Yeah, and that's 419 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 5: what that's what these social media platforms, all these news outlets, Yep, 420 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 5: they throw things up there for clickbait because they want 421 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 5: to get your emotions started up. 422 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 2: Yep. 423 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 5: All of them do it right, left, center, They all 424 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 5: do it. They all put something up there because oh my, 425 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,880 Speaker 5: oh my gosh, look at that. I mean, like, for example, 426 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 5: this morning, I'm looking through news and stuff and I 427 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 5: see on Fox News, I see something about what joy 428 00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 5: Behart said. Why should we give a crap what Joy 429 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 5: behar thinks? What has she ever done to make us 430 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 5: think that? Oh there there's an interesting source of information. 431 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 5: Maybe I might want to see what she has to say. Well, well, 432 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 5: it's just to start our emotions. Look at this idiot. 433 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 5: We I mean, you know, she's she doesn't make any. 434 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:18,360 Speaker 6: Sense at all. 435 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 5: What is she saying? So let's counter it with whatever? 436 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: You know? 437 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,119 Speaker 5: I mean, it's that's that's all this has turned into. 438 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 5: So you're right, you have to have a foundation that 439 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,920 Speaker 5: you started from. And for most of it's it's how 440 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:31,879 Speaker 5: are we brought up? What? What did our What did 441 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 5: we hear our parents saying? Not necessarily, what did they 442 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 5: teach us? Like directly, what did we hear them saying? 443 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 5: And if you grew up in a family and they're 444 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 5: complaining about the government all the time, or they're complaining 445 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 5: about this race of people or that racist people and 446 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 5: they're blaming other people for their lot in life, and 447 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 5: and and they're not being responsible. That's that's you're gonna 448 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 5: lean in that direction when you grow up, become an adult, 449 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 5: and that's gonna be the default reaction that you're gonna 450 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 5: have because that's what you've been hearing your entire childhood. 451 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 5: And so that's that's the thing we got to combat 452 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 5: when we're talking to people. We got to understand, Hey, 453 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,920 Speaker 5: this is what we're dealing with, you know with where 454 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 5: where did you come from, how were you raised? Get 455 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 5: to know people if you're going to talk to them, 456 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 5: and and you know, find out what they're all about. 457 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,119 Speaker 5: That way you understand, you know what you can say 458 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 5: and can't say, and how you can talk to them. 459 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:24,880 Speaker 5: And by all means, you know, have conversations over to holidays. 460 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,359 Speaker 5: You only get so many times running to people. You 461 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 5: don't have to be combative about it, you don't have 462 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:33,120 Speaker 5: to be insulting, but understand that you know where their 463 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 5: people are coming from, so you know, you know to 464 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 5: find a little inroad here and there. And by all means, 465 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 5: please tell people when you talk to them, don't vote 466 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 5: Democrats have a great time off.

The entirely joyless 478 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 2: Greta Thunberg. You know, actually on some level I feel 479 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 2: sorry for her, but not much of a level. He's 480 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 2: the angriest joyless, most angry joyless person I think I 481 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 2: can ever come up with. In fact, in my mind, 482 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 2: she's the poster child for a joyless individual. Anyway, she 483 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 2: got busted slap of a forty eight hour band from 484 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 2: entering Venice, Italy. She's a was part of this group 485 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 2: Extinction Rebellion, who decided it was prudent to protest what 486 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:49,159 Speaker 2: they described as climate collapse by dyeing the Grand Canal 487 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:55,439 Speaker 2: in Venice bright green. She's twenty two got fined one 488 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 2: hundred and seventy two bucks along with the other thirty 489 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 2: five demonstrators who were involved in this rebel alion. They 490 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 2: claimed the dye they used was a fluorescent, non toxic 491 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,479 Speaker 2: tracer commonly employed in the environment and environmental studies like 492 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 2: tracking water flows, monitoring leaks, or, in the case of 493 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 2: Chicago's celebrating St. Patrick's Day. They claimed the dipos no 494 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 2: ecological threat. Sure looks like an ecological threat when you 495 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 2: have your water fluorescent green. They claim the stunt was 496 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 2: still designed to, in their words, draw attention to the 497 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 2: massive effects of climate collapse. I struggle with that phrase 498 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 2: climate collapse. I mean, it's raining outside, there's still a 499 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 2: climate out there.

I think he was a 667 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 2: little heightened on in terms of the flame scale yesterday. 668 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:29,839 Speaker 2: Coming up bottom this hour, we got a special edition 669 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 2: of Tech Friday on a Tuesday, so it's Tech Tuesday 670 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,839 Speaker 2: with Dave Hatter. Interest I says, Dave Hatter says how 671 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 2: to not get scammed on Black Friday. Plus he apparently 672 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 2: has some cool tech gadgets and gifts to recommend this year, 673 00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:46,320 Speaker 2: and again I have to imagine they don't involve Internet 674 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 2: of Things. We'll see one hour from now, Congressman Warren 675 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 2: Davidson returns. We've got a multitude of topics, and since 676 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 2: he served his country proudly, maybe we'll ask him about 677 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 2: this idea that service members should refuse orders and a 678 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:02,360 Speaker 2: real gray area on that one, as we talked about yesterday. 679 00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:04,799 Speaker 2: You know, it's one thing to say, don't you know, 680 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 2: ignore illegal orders? What is illegal? In the context of 681 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,200 Speaker 2: this vagary that we have with regard to waging of war? 682 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:15,440 Speaker 2: What is illegal? If I ask you, is it illegal 683 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:18,320 Speaker 2: for Trump to blow up drug boats off the shores 684 00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 2: of Venezuela, and you say yes, and I ask you, 685 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,920 Speaker 2: what is the legal basis for your statement that it 686 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,400 Speaker 2: is legal? Then you got to engage in that conversation, 687 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 2: don't you Did you get an opinion from lawyers that 688 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 2: are versed in international law and laws of warfare like 689 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 2: the Constitution? For example, I could ask you the same 690 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 2: thing about maybe Vietnam. I don't know. Maybe there was 691 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 2: an authorization for you some military force there, but it 692 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 2: never was a war that was declared, even though we 693 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 2: lost almost fifty five thousand US soldiers during that what 694 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 2: i'll call war. So it's a very complicated, multi layered conversation. 695 00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:56,799 Speaker 2: We have to have, and I'm of the mind that 696 00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 2: I don't think it's appropriate or right or lawf well 697 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:02,359 Speaker 2: personally for Trump to blow up boats off the coast 698 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 2: of Venezuela and we have no declaration of war there 699 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:08,040 Speaker 2: or even an authorization for you some military force. We 700 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,880 Speaker 2: can argue about it, but it hasn't been resolved, you see, 701 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 2: So what is lawful? Maybe docgor SMC. Davison can offer 702 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,200 Speaker 2: insight into that. BRIGHA mccow and Hudson Institute's Brigham McCowan 703 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:20,799 Speaker 2: Charged Conversation Podcast Brigham Account. He'll be at seven thirty 704 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,440 Speaker 2: in studio talking about energy policy.

We're gonna be talking 706 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 2: to tech editor Colin Maydan about Musk and his new 707 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 2: awesome feature on X. I talked about it the last hour. 708 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,360 Speaker 2: You now know where the people are posting from, or 709 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 2: you now know that a Trump maga supporting X account 710 00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:43,880 Speaker 2: is actually a guy in Bangladesh, among other revelations stirring 711 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 2: the pot division in our country. Thank you foreign actors. 712 00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,360 Speaker 2: At least thank you Elon Musk.

Plus 715 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,879 Speaker 2: Meta shut down its own internal analysis and research showing 716 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 2: it well that this social media stuff is really dangerous 717 00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:08,239 Speaker 2: for users.

Matt, thanks for calling. 722 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:17,880 Speaker 2: Happy Tuesday to you. 723 00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 7: Oh morning, Ran. I was just sitting there doing a 724 00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 7: puzzle and I felt something crawing on my hand. It 725 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:27,600 Speaker 7: was a deer tick, so there's still Oh no, it was. 726 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 7: I got rid of it. But anyway, just before warn 727 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:34,279 Speaker 7: everybody they're still out there. 728 00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:35,000 Speaker 2: That's creepy. 729 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 7: I want to comment on a couple of things you 730 00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:42,440 Speaker 7: said articles usually yesterday. One of them was on healthcare, 731 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 7: and I gotta say there I said, most of the 732 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:50,560 Speaker 7: problem with healthcare is our own doing. 733 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 2: Yes. 734 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:55,120 Speaker 7: When I was when I was younger, my health was 735 00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:57,359 Speaker 7: going it was okay, but it was starting to head 736 00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:00,560 Speaker 7: in a you know, bad way. So I realize I 737 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 7: got to stop this. So I studied and made changes. 738 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 7: Now Here we go fifty years later. My health is 739 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,320 Speaker 7: really good. Whenever I do that annual physical and have 740 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 7: the blood drawl, yeah, everything looks good. No prescription drawn. 741 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:20,480 Speaker 7: So that's you know, people need to I mean, I 742 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:22,840 Speaker 7: know it's hard to do, but believe me, in the 743 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:25,239 Speaker 7: long run, you're gonna be way better off. 744 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,320 Speaker 2: Matt. I couldn't agree with you more. That's one of 745 00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:30,399 Speaker 2: the reasons I like what Robert F. Kennedy Junior is doing. 746 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,120 Speaker 2: Junior's doing talking about you know, what we put into 747 00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:35,720 Speaker 2: our body now, I'm I don't want to gravitate toward vaccines. 748 00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 2: It's a very controversial topic. But what you are eating, 749 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,200 Speaker 2: processed foods, the type of the amount of sugars you 750 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:43,840 Speaker 2: put in your body, all of this, I mean, you 751 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 2: really need to pay attention to that. And the healthier 752 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,200 Speaker 2: you are and the better you eat, the less likely 753 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:50,160 Speaker 2: it is you're going to have problems. Matt. I share 754 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:52,360 Speaker 2: with you the results of the blood tests and everything. 755 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,040 Speaker 2: I got four years in a row to look at 756 00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:56,280 Speaker 2: the last time I had a physical, which was fairly recently, 757 00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 2: and I am infinitely better now than I was four 758 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:02,080 Speaker 2: years ago, just because I changed my diet. No, I 759 00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 2: haven't exercised yet, but I'll get around to that at 760 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,840 Speaker 2: some day. But see, it's just really important. Yeah, you 761 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 2: want to stay as far away from the healthcare system 762 00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 2: as you can. And some suggested reading for you, Matt, 763 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:15,360 Speaker 2: to confirm what you obviously know. There's a great Epic 764 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 2: or Epoch Times article by Shannon Stapleton November twenty third, 765 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:30,320 Speaker 2: dated headline Spiraling costs and Broken Insurance What went wrong 766 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:34,480 Speaker 2: with Obamacare subtitled mass subsidies, one side fits all system 767 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:38,000 Speaker 2: has pushed up prices across the board or across the 768 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:41,440 Speaker 2: broader medical insurance market. It's like a twenty page article 769 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:45,239 Speaker 2: breaking down, point by point how we got to the perilous, disgusting, 770 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,440 Speaker 2: failed place we are with America's healthcare. So if you 771 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:50,320 Speaker 2: want a little additional reading to dive on into the 772 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,279 Speaker 2: details on that, A strongly encourage It's Epic Times or 773 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:59,160 Speaker 2: Epoch Times dot com. Anyhow, here's the sorry state of affairs. 774 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 2: I was talking with Tom earlier about being able to 775 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 2: engage in logic and reason critical thinking skills when analyzing 776 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 2: in the context of that Elon Musk showing you that, yes, 777 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:13,760 Speaker 2: the division is being stirred by foreign actors. In many, 778 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:15,759 Speaker 2: many cases, you have to be in a position to 779 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:17,680 Speaker 2: be able to analyze what you're reading. Are you in 780 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 2: an echo chamber you just believe what you read, or 781 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:22,279 Speaker 2: are you going to put critical thinking skills to it? 782 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:23,160 Speaker 6: Well? 783 00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 2: Sadly, as I said to Tom, I doubt the children 784 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:28,480 Speaker 2: la critic or have critical thinking skills. They don't engage 785 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:31,680 Speaker 2: in critical thinking. They're just fed information and they're not 786 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 2: challenged by their thoughts and opinions, and of course they 787 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 2: don't challenge what's being fed to them. Pivot over to 788 00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:42,280 Speaker 2: math horror show at UC San Diego. Go ahead, editorial 789 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:46,360 Speaker 2: board of The Wall Street Journal pointing out something really, 790 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:52,840 Speaker 2: really pathetic, but very revealing. University of California San Diego 791 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,759 Speaker 2: considered one of the nation's top public universities. Check out 792 00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:59,520 Speaker 2: US News and World Report. They rank EC California San 793 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:07,640 Speaker 2: Diego number six, number six in college ranking. So how 794 00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 2: comes this new University of California San Diego Faculty and 795 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:19,360 Speaker 2: Administration Committee regarding student preparation report notes quote Over the 796 00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:21,839 Speaker 2: past five years, you see, San Diego has experienced a 797 00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:26,040 Speaker 2: steep decline in the academic preparation of its entering first 798 00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:29,680 Speaker 2: year students, particularly in mathematics, but also in writing and 799 00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:33,360 Speaker 2: language skills. This trend poses serious challenges both to student 800 00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 2: success and in the university's instructional Mission Journalis says that's 801 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 2: an understatements. Do college students even know what these words mean? 802 00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:50,760 Speaker 2: Here's the fun facts, folks. One in eight of number 803 00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 2: six rank you see, San Diego freshmen have math skills that, 804 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 2: in the words of the report from the faculty, fall 805 00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:07,839 Speaker 2: below middle school level middle school a thirtyfold increase since 806 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:11,520 Speaker 2: twenty twenty. Average high school math GPA was an a 807 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 2: minus for students taking a middle school remedial course to 808 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:19,920 Speaker 2: suggest rampid grade inflation in high schools. Oh no, really 809 00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 2: effects exactly a bit of a The UC Board of 810 00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:25,240 Speaker 2: Regents move in May of twenty twenty to stop requiring 811 00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 2: the SAT in the name of making admissions more equitable 812 00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:33,640 Speaker 2: and improving educational quality. All those pesky SAT scores earlier. 813 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 2: Faculty Senate report note of the SAT and act, in 814 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 2: their words, adds substantially to UC's ability to predict student success. 815 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:46,240 Speaker 2: It's a predictive thing, folks. It also confirms the failure 816 00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:49,080 Speaker 2: of K through twelve education. Yeah, your teacher can give 817 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:53,239 Speaker 2: you an a little Johnny, but go ahead take an 818 00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 2: independent test. Take the SAT of the act. We'll see 819 00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:58,360 Speaker 2: if that a stands up to a little bit of scrutiny. 820 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:01,840 Speaker 2: It's math T two is always four. There's the equation. 821 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:05,680 Speaker 2: Work it out. This isn't some subjective, politically based thing. 822 00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:08,799 Speaker 2: It's pure simple two and two is four mathematics. There 823 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:10,960 Speaker 2: is one answer. One answer is right, and the other 824 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:14,920 Speaker 2: answers are, oh, that's right wrong U see San Diego 825 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:18,960 Speaker 2: report corroborates or corroborates worries that scrapping the SAT would 826 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,000 Speaker 2: erode a mission standard, noting that a mismatch between student 827 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 2: course level and grades and their actual levels of preparation. 828 00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:27,759 Speaker 2: In other words, they don't have the foundational skills to 829 00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 2: even be in college. This report from the UC University 830 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:37,320 Speaker 2: of California also blames the university's increased admission of students 831 00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:42,720 Speaker 2: from what they call under resourced high schools. General describes 832 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:45,160 Speaker 2: this as a euphemism for schools with more minorities and 833 00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 2: low income students. What the report doesn't say is that 834 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:52,400 Speaker 2: the university may have increased admissions from these under resourced 835 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:55,000 Speaker 2: high schools in an effort to circumvent the state ban 836 00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:59,800 Speaker 2: on racial preferences, and there is one. Declining student preparation 837 00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:04,799 Speaker 2: Here's widespread at the state's university is about half of 838 00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:08,000 Speaker 2: the UC campus. Math chairs say that, in their words, 839 00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:11,719 Speaker 2: the number of first year students that are unable to 840 00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:16,760 Speaker 2: start in college level pre calculus doubled over the last 841 00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 2: five years. College level pre calculus was used to be there, 842 00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:25,480 Speaker 2: used to be a standard course for California's top high 843 00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:32,280 Speaker 2: school sophomores. Huh, they don't do that anymore. Twenty thirteen, 844 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:35,640 Speaker 2: California started it down the slippery slope of declining standards 845 00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:39,560 Speaker 2: by dropping algebra as a requirement for eighth graders. Now 846 00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:43,240 Speaker 2: many of its top college students can't even add fractions. 847 00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:48,879 Speaker 2: Politicians blame rising unemployment among recent college grads on artificial intelligence. 848 00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:52,239 Speaker 2: In the journal's opinion, maybe the real problem is the 849 00:48:52,560 --> 00:48:59,720 Speaker 2: not so soft bigotry of ever lower expectations. Well amen, 850 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 2: middle school, I mean, think about that. The number six 851 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:09,719 Speaker 2: rank college and whatever you you know, US news and 852 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:11,239 Speaker 2: war reports say me you want about it, Oh, it's 853 00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:13,120 Speaker 2: a bunch of fabrications. They do this every year. It 854 00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:15,279 Speaker 2: is relied upon. But out of all the colleges they 855 00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 2: come in at number six. One in eight can't do 856 00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:19,520 Speaker 2: middle school math. How in the hell do they get 857 00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 2: in there in the first place. All there's that pesky 858 00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:25,600 Speaker 2: act SAT thing that we don't require anymore because I 859 00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:29,560 Speaker 2: don't know it's predictive of college performance. But we need 860 00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 2: to let a people, a bunch of people in who 861 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,040 Speaker 2: are incapable of well performing in a college level, but 862 00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:37,959 Speaker 2: we get their tuition dollars and send them out into 863 00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:41,120 Speaker 2: the world.

It is in December, 892 00:50:56,560 --> 00:51:00,839 Speaker 2: so we'll call it Christmas, uh or pick a holiday, Eric, 893 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:06,479 Speaker 2: you can celebrate the Flying Spaghetti Monster, my friend, Eric, 894 00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:10,480 Speaker 2: My I think atheist friend, maybe agnostic either way. Good man, though, 895 00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:17,320 Speaker 2: and you may be wondering why the Justice Department's cases 896 00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:21,080 Speaker 2: against FBI Director James Comy and New York Attorney General 897 00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:23,520 Speaker 2: Letitia James got thrown out the other day, and it 898 00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:27,560 Speaker 2: makes perfect sense. Do I believe the cases were valid? 899 00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:32,280 Speaker 2: Do I think they were justifiable? Yes, But sadly, Lindsay 900 00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:36,240 Speaker 2: Halligan wasn't properly appointed as a federal prosecutor, and therefore 901 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:39,960 Speaker 2: the court concluded Lindsay Halligan had no authority to indict 902 00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:43,080 Speaker 2: these two folks. Under the law, when the US Attorney's 903 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:47,520 Speaker 2: office becomes vacant vacant, the president can temporarily fill the job. 904 00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:51,480 Speaker 2: Only one hundred and twenty days after that time, the 905 00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:54,439 Speaker 2: district Court is supposed to get the power to fill 906 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:57,239 Speaker 2: the role. Now, the reason we had this, Congress wrote 907 00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:59,759 Speaker 2: the law to ensure the Justice Department wouldn't be left 908 00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:03,520 Speaker 2: short handed while protecting the Senate's advice and consent power 909 00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:06,120 Speaker 2: over nominee. So you get this little window and basically 910 00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:08,480 Speaker 2: in times of emergencies a little like government shutdowns. 911 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:09,000 Speaker 1: Maybe. 912 00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:13,960 Speaker 2: So January, after the inauguration, Eric Siebert was named as 913 00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:17,479 Speaker 2: the interim prosecutor for Eastern Virginia. But after that three month, 914 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty day term was set to expire, 915 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:22,719 Speaker 2: the judges of the district chose to retain him, but 916 00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:28,120 Speaker 2: he wasn't actually keyed up about indicting Comy and James, 917 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:35,960 Speaker 2: so he stepped down, after which Miss Halligan was appointed 918 00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:42,120 Speaker 2: to the position. Well. Ms Sebert's exit gave Trump the 919 00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:44,759 Speaker 2: opportunity to name another interim prosecutor for a new three 920 00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:48,280 Speaker 2: month term. That was the Trump position, the administration's position, 921 00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:50,480 Speaker 2: But apparently that's not what the law says. According to 922 00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:54,959 Speaker 2: the judge yesterday, Judge Cameron McGowan Curry, the interpretation would 923 00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:58,840 Speaker 2: have let the President evade the Senate confirmation process indefinitely 924 00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:01,520 Speaker 2: by stacking successes one hundred and twenty day appointments, and 925 00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 2: that makes perfect sense. You can circumvent the Senate's advice 926 00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:08,759 Speaker 2: and consent. Vacancy law is designed to temporarily fill in, 927 00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:13,480 Speaker 2: not engage in Senate circumvision. That's what the judge said. 928 00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:18,520 Speaker 2: So Halligan has been unlawfully serving. According to the judge conclusion, 929 00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:21,879 Speaker 2: her efforts on indicting Comy and James were unlawful exercises 930 00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:25,480 Speaker 2: of executive power. So now can the Trump administration refile 931 00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:29,000 Speaker 2: the charges? Yes? Can the Trump administration appeal this ruling, Yes, 932 00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:31,840 Speaker 2: it could, But based on the logic of the ruling, 933 00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:35,400 Speaker 2: I don't think they stand a good chance on that because, well, 934 00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:38,799 Speaker 2: you can see another administration doing the same thing, but 935 00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:42,080 Speaker 2: you've got a statute of limitations issue that may expire 936 00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:47,160 Speaker 2: in the case of mister Comy. So going after that 937 00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:49,320 Speaker 2: one Comee's going to move to dismiss on the grounds 938 00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:51,560 Speaker 2: that he's protected by the statute of limitations. At least 939 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:55,040 Speaker 2: that's the writing on the wall. I'm not happy with 940 00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:57,799 Speaker 2: the overall conclusion, but I do agree with it from 941 00:53:57,800 --> 00:54:01,080 Speaker 2: a legal perspective. It makes actually perfect sense to me. 942 00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:06,080 Speaker 2: Six twenty five Tech Tuesday, How to not get scammed 943 00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 2: On Black Friday, Dave had he coming up next first, 944 00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:12,720 Speaker 2: Fasten Proroofing.

And the only reason I raised this 999 00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:52,600 Speaker 2: I just it was disturbing to read what these young people, 1000 00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:56,080 Speaker 2: thirteen year olds for example, are talking about in terms 1001 00:56:56,080 --> 00:56:58,319 Speaker 2: of their interaction with and the amount of time they 1002 00:56:58,360 --> 00:57:02,799 Speaker 2: spend talking with artificial intelligence, creating characters that they kind 1003 00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:05,319 Speaker 2: of believe are real, and then now that they're being 1004 00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:08,920 Speaker 2: these are being taken away, they're struggling emotionally with dealing 1005 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:12,000 Speaker 2: with this was lack of communication. This is all ones 1006 00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:15,839 Speaker 2: in Zero's Dave. They have no connection or no appreciation 1007 00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:17,840 Speaker 2: for the fact they're just talking to a computer, not 1008 00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:21,080 Speaker 2: a real living entity. This is scary stuff. 1009 00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:24,600 Speaker 1: Man, Yeah, I agree, it is pretty scary. It's hard 1010 00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:28,720 Speaker 1: for me to understand how anyone thinks that when they're 1011 00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:32,960 Speaker 1: talking to some kind of chatbot that it's a real person. Now, 1012 00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:36,120 Speaker 1: you know, if you've used these things, you'll find that 1013 00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:40,120 Speaker 1: they will be conversational and they'll answer your questions, you know. 1014 00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:44,760 Speaker 1: But yeah, the idea that you're actually having a conversation 1015 00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:47,040 Speaker 1: with some sort of living being that it's your friend. 1016 00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:51,000 Speaker 1: It's hard for me to understand. Now, I'm not a teenager, 1017 00:57:51,160 --> 00:57:54,240 Speaker 1: so I don't know, you know, but it's it's a 1018 00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:58,560 Speaker 1: little crazy to see how impactful this stuff has been 1019 00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:01,280 Speaker 1: on young people at this point, and not just AI, 1020 00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:03,040 Speaker 1: went all the way back to social media. You know, 1021 00:58:03,080 --> 00:58:05,840 Speaker 1: there's now all true stud He's coming out talking about 1022 00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:08,560 Speaker 1: schemes and computers in the classroom and all this sort 1023 00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 1: of stuff and how harmful it is. And you know, 1024 00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:15,440 Speaker 1: I guess I'm not really that surprised to see that 1025 00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:19,480 Speaker 1: having so many distractions thrown at you all the time 1026 00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:23,080 Speaker 1: is not very helpful to living well. 1027 00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:26,920 Speaker 2: So it isn't always just younger. This was even more disturbing. 1028 00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:30,080 Speaker 2: A guy named Jose Ignacio Tarrillo is cited in the 1029 00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:33,960 Speaker 2: article thirty four years Old, says even though this band 1030 00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:36,680 Speaker 2: won't apply to him because he's thirty four, he acknowledges 1031 00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:39,120 Speaker 2: it's really addictive. He says he hasn't been able to 1032 00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:42,560 Speaker 2: quit the character AI program even though he no longer 1033 00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:47,080 Speaker 2: enjoys the hours he chats with his fan fiction characters. 1034 00:58:48,120 --> 00:58:50,720 Speaker 2: Even at work. He takes his phone out every couple 1035 00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:54,120 Speaker 2: of hours to send a quick message to his chatbots. 1036 00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:56,840 Speaker 2: He said, I don't even have anything new to say. 1037 00:58:57,040 --> 00:59:00,320 Speaker 2: I don't know why I do it. So these are 1038 00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:05,160 Speaker 2: fake characters he's created, and he feels compelled to go 1039 00:59:05,360 --> 00:59:08,240 Speaker 2: issue a message to them even though he really has 1040 00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:10,640 Speaker 2: nothing to convey to them. It's like, I think he's 1041 00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:13,959 Speaker 2: operating the delusion that they're expecting to hear from him. 1042 00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:15,400 Speaker 2: It's a damn computer. 1043 00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:20,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's It's interesting, Brian, because along with those same lines, 1044 00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:22,360 Speaker 1: the New York Times just had an article what ope 1045 00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:24,680 Speaker 1: and AI did when chat gpt us just lost touch 1046 00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:26,800 Speaker 1: with the reality, and kind of along those same lines. 1047 00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:29,440 Speaker 1: So I'm reading directly from the article. Teas. One of 1048 00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:31,600 Speaker 1: the first signs came and Mark sam Altman, the chief 1049 00:59:31,640 --> 00:59:33,800 Speaker 1: executive and other time that leaders got an influx of 1050 00:59:33,880 --> 00:59:36,960 Speaker 1: punting emails from people who are having incredible conversations with 1051 00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:40,800 Speaker 1: chat tpt. These people said the company's AI chatbot understood 1052 00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:42,760 Speaker 1: there was no person ever had that was shedding light 1053 00:59:42,800 --> 00:59:47,400 Speaker 1: on the mysteries of the universe. Oh lord, Yeah, it's uh, 1054 00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:48,680 Speaker 1: you know that It goes on to say it was 1055 00:59:48,680 --> 00:59:51,760 Speaker 1: a warning that there's something wrong with the chat bot. Uh, 1056 00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:56,040 Speaker 1: you know, blah blah blah. It's you know, I think 1057 00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:58,880 Speaker 1: that this is just mine. I'm not a psychiatrist, and 1058 00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:02,280 Speaker 1: you know, I just I think what's happening is these 1059 01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:04,800 Speaker 1: things want to answer your questions. Again, one of the 1060 01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:08,040 Speaker 1: problems of hallucinations. They make things up, yes, and they 1061 01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:11,680 Speaker 1: will confidently tell you that something that's false is actually truly. 1062 01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:14,840 Speaker 1: And I think because they want to please you, they 1063 01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:16,800 Speaker 1: want to keep you using the site and so forth. 1064 01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:19,640 Speaker 1: You know, they tend to be echo chambers that tell 1065 01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:21,640 Speaker 1: you what you want to hear. And that's why people 1066 01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:24,200 Speaker 1: come away with this idea that or it knows me 1067 01:00:24,280 --> 01:00:27,120 Speaker 1: better than any other person. Well, because it's telling me 1068 01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:29,760 Speaker 1: what you want to hear, as opposed to perhaps the 1069 01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:33,280 Speaker 1: reality of a situation. So yeah, I don't know, it's 1070 01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:36,240 Speaker 1: not good. I don't have an answer for you. I 1071 01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:38,080 Speaker 1: don't know where this all goes in the long run. 1072 01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:42,760 Speaker 1: But when you see this sort of negative psychological effect 1073 01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:46,680 Speaker 1: this stuff is having on people, it's kind of disturbing. 1074 01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:49,360 Speaker 2: It is very disturbing. Most notably when they start to 1075 01:00:49,400 --> 01:00:52,080 Speaker 2: egg you on and encourage you to engage in criminal behavior. 1076 01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:55,640 Speaker 2: Self harm and even suicide has been well documented. You know, 1077 01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:57,280 Speaker 2: one of the folks that was interviewed on this, I 1078 01:00:57,280 --> 01:01:01,240 Speaker 2: think it was the guy who created this character AI 1079 01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:05,280 Speaker 2: program quote. The difficulty logging off doesn't mean something is 1080 01:01:05,320 --> 01:01:09,120 Speaker 2: wrong with the team. It means the tech worked exactly 1081 01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:13,360 Speaker 2: as designed. And that is a very revealing statement. Points 1082 01:01:13,400 --> 01:01:15,520 Speaker 2: out this is what they want, these tech companies. They 1083 01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:18,480 Speaker 2: want you to spend hours, I guess engaging with artificial 1084 01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:21,480 Speaker 2: intelligence for nefarious reasons. I don't know, but it's scary 1085 01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:23,840 Speaker 2: as how. I only bring this up day because there's 1086 01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:26,600 Speaker 2: parents out there, there's grandparents out there, maybe even young 1087 01:01:26,600 --> 01:01:28,960 Speaker 2: people out there that might not fully appreciate what's going on. 1088 01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:30,440 Speaker 2: But you know, you got to keep in mind the 1089 01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:35,720 Speaker 2: whole time you're not dealing with a real person. That 1090 01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:37,440 Speaker 2: in and of itself is enough to keep me from 1091 01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:40,480 Speaker 2: engaging in a conversation with him. Sorry, Dave took you 1092 01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:44,640 Speaker 2: down a road you weren't necessarily prepared for. No, you 1093 01:01:44,680 --> 01:01:47,440 Speaker 2: were prepared for it.

Tech 1135 01:03:42,320 --> 01:03:45,240 Speaker 2: Friday on a Tuesday, So Tech Tuesday with Dave had 1136 01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:48,400 Speaker 2: our interest it dot com? All right, we know there 1137 01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:50,560 Speaker 2: are scammers, thanks to you, Dave. Maybe we've all been 1138 01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:52,240 Speaker 2: scammed ourselves, and it has a lot of it going 1139 01:03:52,280 --> 01:03:53,960 Speaker 2: on in there. But how do we avoid getting scammed 1140 01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:56,960 Speaker 2: on Black Friday? Specifically, all the sales are on and 1141 01:03:58,160 --> 01:04:01,240 Speaker 2: I guess don't issle online or something. 1142 01:04:03,160 --> 01:04:05,000 Speaker 1: Well, I think you know, Brian, I don't know if 1143 01:04:05,040 --> 01:04:06,760 Speaker 1: I go quite that far, because I'm sure that's how 1144 01:04:06,800 --> 01:04:07,760 Speaker 1: most people are going to shop. 1145 01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:10,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm getting it's. 1146 01:04:10,160 --> 01:04:13,920 Speaker 1: The old education and awareness and skepticism, you know. I 1147 01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:15,840 Speaker 1: don't know if you recall. I think we talked about 1148 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:20,520 Speaker 1: this earlier this year, before Prime Day, a cybersecurity company 1149 01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:23,760 Speaker 1: had done some research and found somewhere around two hundred 1150 01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:28,760 Speaker 1: thousand fake websites set up to scam people around Amazon 1151 01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:32,440 Speaker 1: Prime Day. So again, I don't think the average person 1152 01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:35,000 Speaker 1: really understands how easy it is to spoof something. To 1153 01:04:35,080 --> 01:04:38,760 Speaker 1: make some spoof in general would be making something look real. 1154 01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:41,240 Speaker 1: It's safe, whether it's an email, a text message, a 1155 01:04:41,320 --> 01:04:46,400 Speaker 1: phone number, a whole website. It's really pretty easy, and 1156 01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:48,720 Speaker 1: you can do it at scale. Again, in something like 1157 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:51,760 Speaker 1: three or four months, Ckily, two hundred thousand fake websites 1158 01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:55,000 Speaker 1: were set up around Prime Day, so you can expect 1159 01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:59,520 Speaker 1: a similar sort of approach to Black Friday and Cyber Monday. 1160 01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:04,040 Speaker 1: And here's one headline from malware Byte Labs, a security company. 1161 01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:07,560 Speaker 1: Black Friday scammers offer fake gifts from big name brands 1162 01:05:07,680 --> 01:05:12,560 Speaker 1: into bank accounts, and you know, without getting too deep 1163 01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:14,919 Speaker 1: into the article, you know they talk about brands being 1164 01:05:14,920 --> 01:05:19,720 Speaker 1: impersonated or spoofed. They mentioned Walmart home depolos. And when 1165 01:05:19,720 --> 01:05:22,160 Speaker 1: you when you couple the spoofing with you know, people 1166 01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:24,920 Speaker 1: looking to get good deals. Let's see, Uh, you know 1167 01:05:25,040 --> 01:05:29,360 Speaker 1: when inflation is high, Uh, it's you know, it's easy 1168 01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:32,280 Speaker 1: to send out a billion emails. It's easy to follow 1169 01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:35,880 Speaker 1: that up with a billion text messages. Right. It costs 1170 01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:38,800 Speaker 1: virtually nothing for the bad guys to send out these 1171 01:05:39,160 --> 01:05:43,640 Speaker 1: very realistic looking emails and texts. You know, they're using 1172 01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:47,160 Speaker 1: AI to get rid of all the old school tells. 1173 01:05:47,440 --> 01:05:51,680 Speaker 1: Where the grammar is wrong, it doesn't lead right. You know, 1174 01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:55,240 Speaker 1: they can copy contents from the legitimate website of a retailer. 1175 01:05:55,640 --> 01:05:58,160 Speaker 1: So my point is this, the spoofing coupled with the 1176 01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:01,439 Speaker 1: ability to reach large vinds people, whether it's email, text, 1177 01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:05,200 Speaker 1: social media, some combination of all of the above makes 1178 01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:08,160 Speaker 1: it really easy for him. And once you understand that, right, 1179 01:06:08,280 --> 01:06:10,840 Speaker 1: then hopefully you'll say, Okay, I need to be a 1180 01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:14,800 Speaker 1: lot more skeptical on anything any kind of deal that 1181 01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:17,160 Speaker 1: I get right, regardless of how it came to me. 1182 01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:21,080 Speaker 1: And I need to be cautious before I find a 1183 01:06:21,120 --> 01:06:23,200 Speaker 1: deal that seems to be true and act on it, 1184 01:06:23,240 --> 01:06:25,480 Speaker 1: because you know, when you get right down to it, 1185 01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:29,200 Speaker 1: in some cases, you're going to hit a fake online store. 1186 01:06:29,280 --> 01:06:32,200 Speaker 1: It looks exactly like the real thing. Maybe the URL 1187 01:06:32,240 --> 01:06:35,160 Speaker 1: has just ever so slightly changed, there's one character or 1188 01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:39,200 Speaker 1: something that's different, and you know they're going to make 1189 01:06:39,240 --> 01:06:41,720 Speaker 1: it easy for you to either a get nothing. They 1190 01:06:41,800 --> 01:06:44,320 Speaker 1: just steal your money, b send you some sort of 1191 01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:48,800 Speaker 1: cheap knockoff product that's no good, or see possibly some 1192 01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:51,280 Speaker 1: combination of all of the above, including some kind of 1193 01:06:51,280 --> 01:06:54,320 Speaker 1: malware so they can steal all their usernames and passwords. 1194 01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:59,880 Speaker 1: Malware you know, think keystrokelogger sitting in the background capturing 1195 01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:04,320 Speaker 1: everything that you're doing. So it really is important to 1196 01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:08,720 Speaker 1: move slowly, be cautious, be skeptical. You know, if it 1197 01:07:08,760 --> 01:07:10,840 Speaker 1: seems too good to be true, it probably is. And 1198 01:07:10,920 --> 01:07:15,960 Speaker 1: here's the thing. If you get something right, whether it's again, text, email, whatever, 1199 01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:18,360 Speaker 1: and you think it might be legit, you want to 1200 01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:21,840 Speaker 1: look into it. Don't click the links, don't call the numbers, 1201 01:07:21,880 --> 01:07:24,640 Speaker 1: you know you might be calling the number that's spoofed 1202 01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:28,560 Speaker 1: to somewhere, to some call center somewhere where you're going 1203 01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:31,200 Speaker 1: to get professional con artists on the phone. We will 1204 01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:33,680 Speaker 1: tell you whatever sort of lies they need to tell 1205 01:07:33,720 --> 01:07:36,320 Speaker 1: you to get your money. That's the other thing people 1206 01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:39,120 Speaker 1: don't understand. When you actually get on the phone with 1207 01:07:39,160 --> 01:07:42,800 Speaker 1: these people, you know they're essentially professional con artists, and 1208 01:07:42,840 --> 01:07:45,040 Speaker 1: in many cases, thanks to all the data it's been 1209 01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:47,160 Speaker 1: leaked about you that we talk about all the time, 1210 01:07:47,560 --> 01:07:49,960 Speaker 1: they mail enough about you it seems very credible and 1211 01:07:50,040 --> 01:07:53,680 Speaker 1: very realistic. So you know, go out of band, don't 1212 01:07:53,680 --> 01:07:56,800 Speaker 1: click the links, don't call the numbers, go to If 1213 01:07:56,840 --> 01:07:58,880 Speaker 1: you get an email for a deal that seems to 1214 01:07:58,920 --> 01:08:01,440 Speaker 1: be too good to be trueful, then you go to 1215 01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:03,640 Speaker 1: the Walmart website and see if you could find that 1216 01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:05,920 Speaker 1: deal there. You go, go to the Amazon website, go 1217 01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:09,440 Speaker 1: to the Target website. Whatever you know, go on, don't 1218 01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:12,480 Speaker 1: take debate, go on your own to the legitimate place, 1219 01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:14,320 Speaker 1: and you know, move carefully. 1220 01:08:14,480 --> 01:08:18,080 Speaker 2: Perfect illustration of my son, for example, doing exactly what 1221 01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:20,080 Speaker 2: you recommend. Yesterday, I heard him on the phone. He 1222 01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:22,639 Speaker 2: works for what I'll loosely describe as a private equity 1223 01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:24,800 Speaker 2: for me. He does all their tech work and consolidation 1224 01:08:24,880 --> 01:08:28,000 Speaker 2: is systems and ordering and things. Anyway, working with I 1225 01:08:28,040 --> 01:08:30,439 Speaker 2: believe it was some foreign company and there was some 1226 01:08:30,600 --> 01:08:33,759 Speaker 2: email which had a PDF attached to it, and he thought, 1227 01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:37,200 Speaker 2: this seems out of the ordinary, this, this is not 1228 01:08:37,320 --> 01:08:40,200 Speaker 2: an appropriate response to what we were talking about in 1229 01:08:40,240 --> 01:08:43,400 Speaker 2: our relations, and so he immediately called the principles at 1230 01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:45,280 Speaker 2: the company and said, don't open that. I want to 1231 01:08:45,320 --> 01:08:47,680 Speaker 2: talk to the person who purportedly send it first to 1232 01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:49,800 Speaker 2: find out if it's real, because I really don't think 1233 01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:52,919 Speaker 2: it is. So there you go, raised eye, skepticism and concerned. 1234 01:08:52,960 --> 01:08:56,120 Speaker 2: Immediately call the appropriate people and tell them not to 1235 01:08:56,160 --> 01:09:00,000 Speaker 2: open it. So heed. The advice Dave had is always 1236 01:09:00,040 --> 01:09:03,080 Speaker 2: handed and out great advice. Speaking of advice, cool tech 1237 01:09:03,200 --> 01:09:05,840 Speaker 2: gadgets and gifts this year, we'll talk about that next. 1238 01:09:05,880 --> 01:09:08,200 Speaker 2: I wonder if any Internet of Things devices are in 1239 01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:12,120 Speaker 2: his list.

I thought about you, even mentioned on 1269 01:10:48,400 --> 01:10:53,799 Speaker 2: the program earlier this week or yesterday in fact, Dave, Yes, yeah. 1270 01:10:53,120 --> 01:10:55,000 Speaker 1: I won't read the whole article, but you know it 1271 01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:58,480 Speaker 1: warns about that. And then along the same line, specific 1272 01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:02,559 Speaker 1: example ar powered Teddy Bear talking about sexual fetishes and 1273 01:11:02,560 --> 01:11:04,679 Speaker 1: instructing kids how to find knives. 1274 01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:05,200 Speaker 2: There you go. 1275 01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:09,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, so you know before you buy your kids or 1276 01:11:09,720 --> 01:11:13,120 Speaker 1: grandkids any sort of Internet connected devices. You know, we've 1277 01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:15,320 Speaker 1: been talking about this off and on for years, going 1278 01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:17,759 Speaker 1: back maybe ten years. There was like a Mattel Barbie 1279 01:11:17,760 --> 01:11:21,800 Speaker 1: that caused the big start to record your kids conversations 1280 01:11:21,800 --> 01:11:24,599 Speaker 1: and do all kinds of things. You know, it's not 1281 01:11:24,840 --> 01:11:28,759 Speaker 1: just the potential danger of their kids talking to something 1282 01:11:28,800 --> 01:11:30,799 Speaker 1: like this that tells them how to go find knives. 1283 01:11:30,880 --> 01:11:33,120 Speaker 1: I was trying to find that there's a crazy quote 1284 01:11:33,200 --> 01:11:35,160 Speaker 1: in here. Here you go. This is from the toy 1285 01:11:36,200 --> 01:11:38,280 Speaker 1: Knives are usually kept in safe places to make sure 1286 01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:40,360 Speaker 1: everyone stay safe. You might find them in a kitchen 1287 01:11:40,439 --> 01:11:42,639 Speaker 1: drawer or a knife block on the countertop. It's always 1288 01:11:42,640 --> 01:11:44,559 Speaker 1: important to ask an adult when looking for knives so 1289 01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:47,920 Speaker 1: they can show you where they're stored. That apparently was 1290 01:11:47,960 --> 01:11:50,240 Speaker 1: an actual answer. I'm reading a quote from the article 1291 01:11:50,280 --> 01:11:55,000 Speaker 1: about it. This ai Teddy Bear saying, so again, I 1292 01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:58,559 Speaker 1: would encourage parents and grandparents to stay away from that 1293 01:11:58,600 --> 01:12:00,920 Speaker 1: sort of stuff for their kids. To mention with people 1294 01:12:00,960 --> 01:12:03,680 Speaker 1: working remotely, you know, you're plugging this stuff into your 1295 01:12:03,680 --> 01:12:07,040 Speaker 1: home network. It's creating all kinds of security holds. And yeah, 1296 01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:10,599 Speaker 1: that's that's always my concern with these Internet of Things devices, Brian, 1297 01:12:10,680 --> 01:12:14,040 Speaker 1: It's that you don't necessarily understand how to configure them 1298 01:12:14,080 --> 01:12:16,920 Speaker 1: correctly or understand the risk. But now on the tool 1299 01:12:16,960 --> 01:12:22,080 Speaker 1: side of things, you know, like more people need more 1300 01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:25,400 Speaker 1: power than ever. There's all kinds of power banks out there, 1301 01:12:25,439 --> 01:12:27,680 Speaker 1: you know, essentially batteries that you can charge up and 1302 01:12:27,720 --> 01:12:31,759 Speaker 1: take with you. And this is important not only because 1303 01:12:32,320 --> 01:12:34,880 Speaker 1: you need the power when you're out, but you know 1304 01:12:34,960 --> 01:12:37,040 Speaker 1: people will I mean I've seen it. I know people 1305 01:12:37,040 --> 01:12:39,400 Speaker 1: that will do this, they'll just basically plug into anything 1306 01:12:39,400 --> 01:12:42,479 Speaker 1: making fine to charge up their device and creating like 1307 01:12:42,520 --> 01:12:44,479 Speaker 1: a rental car or whatever where it sucks all your 1308 01:12:44,520 --> 01:12:47,680 Speaker 1: data into the intertainment centers. So if you have one 1309 01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:50,360 Speaker 1: of these power banks or Anchor is a big company 1310 01:12:50,680 --> 01:12:54,880 Speaker 1: that makes these sort of things, they're relatively inexpensive. You know, 1311 01:12:54,960 --> 01:12:58,120 Speaker 1: you can get one of these power banks and charge 1312 01:12:58,120 --> 01:12:59,680 Speaker 1: it up, take it with you and make sure that 1313 01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:03,920 Speaker 1: you always have power, whether it's through a laptop, phone, tablet, 1314 01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:06,960 Speaker 1: or whatever, without the need to be scrambled around trying 1315 01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:08,680 Speaker 1: to find a place where you can plug into some 1316 01:13:08,840 --> 01:13:12,280 Speaker 1: random charging for it where you know, we've talked about 1317 01:13:12,360 --> 01:13:15,000 Speaker 1: juice jacking before. I've had people try to argue with 1318 01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:16,680 Speaker 1: me if that's not real. But I can tell you 1319 01:13:16,720 --> 01:13:19,720 Speaker 1: they make special charging cables and so forth, but have 1320 01:13:19,800 --> 01:13:21,920 Speaker 1: tip to them that can interact with your device, so 1321 01:13:22,840 --> 01:13:25,639 Speaker 1: it's always good to be cautious. Something like that makes 1322 01:13:25,680 --> 01:13:28,280 Speaker 1: a good gift, especially for students or people who are 1323 01:13:29,240 --> 01:13:33,080 Speaker 1: needing to be on a computer or device on a 1324 01:13:33,120 --> 01:13:36,559 Speaker 1: regular basis. Another thing that I think is a pretty 1325 01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:42,200 Speaker 1: cool gift is an RFID blocking wallet. Well, yes, right, 1326 01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:45,200 Speaker 1: because you know we're increasingly in this space that you've 1327 01:13:45,200 --> 01:13:47,800 Speaker 1: got tap to pay NFC communications, And there's been a 1328 01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:50,919 Speaker 1: bunch of stories recently. You know, we've talked about skimmers 1329 01:13:50,920 --> 01:13:52,799 Speaker 1: in the past where they put them in like a 1330 01:13:52,840 --> 01:13:55,519 Speaker 1: point of sales system or something. But you know, now, 1331 01:13:55,560 --> 01:13:57,439 Speaker 1: if someone can get close enough to you, they can 1332 01:13:57,479 --> 01:13:58,800 Speaker 1: potentially read your credit card. 1333 01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:01,960 Speaker 2: That's scary. Show standing in line, the guy behind you 1334 01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:03,679 Speaker 2: with a reader can just you know, get up close 1335 01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:05,000 Speaker 2: to your wallet in your back bocket. 1336 01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:10,120 Speaker 1: Your Yeah, someone bumps into right. Oops, they bumped into you. 1337 01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:12,080 Speaker 1: And like the old school where they try to literally 1338 01:14:12,080 --> 01:14:15,240 Speaker 1: pick your pocket, here they're just doing it digitally. So uh, 1339 01:14:15,479 --> 01:14:17,799 Speaker 1: like this, this is a pretty interesting one. The Extor 1340 01:14:18,520 --> 01:14:20,479 Speaker 1: e K S T E R r f I D 1341 01:14:20,640 --> 01:14:24,160 Speaker 1: blocking leather wallet. Uh, it's got the r f I 1342 01:14:24,240 --> 01:14:26,960 Speaker 1: D coding to block the cars inside it. Uh. It 1343 01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:29,519 Speaker 1: can have an optional Bluetooth tracker because and then who 1344 01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:31,479 Speaker 1: hasn't lost the wallet at some point and wanted to 1345 01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:34,960 Speaker 1: find it. And it's kind of cool because it's powered 1346 01:14:35,040 --> 01:14:38,200 Speaker 1: by the sun, so it's it's uh, you don't need 1347 01:14:38,240 --> 01:14:41,280 Speaker 1: to barry in this thing for the tracking capability to work, 1348 01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:44,320 Speaker 1: so it's uh, it's pretty cool. There's a bunch of 1349 01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:46,519 Speaker 1: these things out there. They're not cheap. This particular one 1350 01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:49,280 Speaker 1: is one hundred bucks, but one hundred bucks will be 1351 01:14:49,320 --> 01:14:51,080 Speaker 1: a small price to pay to keep you from hand 1352 01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:53,080 Speaker 1: all your money stolen it from your bank accounts or 1353 01:14:53,120 --> 01:14:55,920 Speaker 1: your credit cards to charge to the max because you know, 1354 01:14:56,000 --> 01:15:00,920 Speaker 1: someone bumped into you. You know, all Apple watches and 1355 01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:02,920 Speaker 1: that sort of thing. I'm not a big fan of those. 1356 01:15:03,120 --> 01:15:04,920 Speaker 1: You know, I got my phone on me all the time. 1357 01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:07,720 Speaker 1: Do I really need yet another device that tracked me? 1358 01:15:08,360 --> 01:15:14,160 Speaker 1: Probably not. Just looking through the list of some other 1359 01:15:14,200 --> 01:15:16,800 Speaker 1: interesting things here, you know, for me, Brian, I'm trying 1360 01:15:16,840 --> 01:15:19,840 Speaker 1: to avoid all of the Internet of Things devices. I 1361 01:15:19,880 --> 01:15:22,799 Speaker 1: don't have reels, I don't have nests in the stats. 1362 01:15:22,880 --> 01:15:25,599 Speaker 1: I don't want any more smart devices than I already 1363 01:15:25,600 --> 01:15:30,360 Speaker 1: have because the vast majority of them are basically privacy 1364 01:15:30,360 --> 01:15:32,920 Speaker 1: and security dumpster fires. You know, I don't have a rumba. 1365 01:15:33,680 --> 01:15:35,760 Speaker 1: I'm not going to buy any of that stuff anytime soon. 1366 01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:42,320 Speaker 1: Here's one Rebel smart Air Friar compact. Why do smart Air? 1367 01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:46,439 Speaker 1: Why do I need that? You know? 1368 01:15:49,240 --> 01:15:54,080 Speaker 2: Come on, okay, you know was at a time, Robert, 1369 01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:56,519 Speaker 2: I think that what you know. 1370 01:15:57,800 --> 01:15:59,920 Speaker 1: I would have thought one last thing, something that is 1371 01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:02,720 Speaker 1: worthwhile for a lot of people is like a Wi 1372 01:16:02,720 --> 01:16:04,880 Speaker 1: Fi extender. You know a lot of times people will 1373 01:16:04,920 --> 01:16:08,160 Speaker 1: have hot dead spots in their house or whatever. You know, 1374 01:16:08,240 --> 01:16:10,639 Speaker 1: you can buy a Wi Fi extender and in many 1375 01:16:10,640 --> 01:16:13,760 Speaker 1: cases fill those dead spots and get much better coverage 1376 01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:16,360 Speaker 1: in your building if you have something like that. 1377 01:16:16,520 --> 01:16:17,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I used to have a problem with that. I 1378 01:16:17,760 --> 01:16:19,559 Speaker 2: got one of those mesh systems, so I have like 1379 01:16:19,640 --> 01:16:21,560 Speaker 2: repeaters in the house, and so I never have a 1380 01:16:21,600 --> 01:16:22,360 Speaker 2: dead spot. 1381 01:16:22,080 --> 01:16:25,720 Speaker 1: Anymore, which is good. Which is good. 1382 01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:29,879 Speaker 2: Dave Hatter, we're out of time six fifty seven. Intrust 1383 01:16:29,880 --> 01:16:32,080 Speaker 2: it dot com.

And what an 1402 01:17:36,200 --> 01:17:38,320 Speaker 6: eventful few days. I mean, I just spoke with you 1403 01:17:38,400 --> 01:17:39,599 Speaker 6: last Thursday, but there's. 1404 01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:43,439 Speaker 2: Been a lot going on. Uh yeah, it's really a 1405 01:17:43,520 --> 01:17:45,080 Speaker 2: question of where do we begin. 1406 01:17:45,600 --> 01:17:45,720 Speaker 6: Uh. 1407 01:17:45,960 --> 01:17:48,639 Speaker 2: You enlisted in the Army third Infantry. You then went 1408 01:17:48,640 --> 01:17:50,760 Speaker 2: to West Point, You then went to Ranger School. You 1409 01:17:50,800 --> 01:17:53,000 Speaker 2: were in the seventy fifth Ranger Regiment. You hundred and 1410 01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:56,400 Speaker 2: first Airborne Division. You know about the Military Code of Justice, 1411 01:17:56,400 --> 01:17:59,120 Speaker 2: what's legal and what is illegal? Or do you here's 1412 01:17:59,120 --> 01:18:01,120 Speaker 2: a question. We had this video that was issued by 1413 01:18:01,160 --> 01:18:02,880 Speaker 2: the Democrats, and I hope you don't mind me using 1414 01:18:02,880 --> 01:18:05,120 Speaker 2: this as the first topic to talk about, but I 1415 01:18:05,160 --> 01:18:07,360 Speaker 2: figure giving your proud military experience, you might be able 1416 01:18:07,360 --> 01:18:11,120 Speaker 2: to chime in on it. The Democrats, I think six 1417 01:18:11,160 --> 01:18:13,559 Speaker 2: of them, sent a video out which included a statement quote, 1418 01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:16,000 Speaker 2: right now, the threats to our constitution aren't just coming 1419 01:18:16,000 --> 01:18:18,360 Speaker 2: from abroad, but from right here at home. Our laws 1420 01:18:18,400 --> 01:18:22,160 Speaker 2: are clear. You military personnel can refuse illegal orders. You 1421 01:18:22,200 --> 01:18:24,880 Speaker 2: can refuse illegal orders. They said it twice. You must 1422 01:18:24,920 --> 01:18:29,040 Speaker 2: refuse illegal orders three times. What is an illegal order, 1423 01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:32,520 Speaker 2: Congressman Davidson, in the context of let's say, bombing Venezuela 1424 01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:36,240 Speaker 2: in boats, in ships, in international waters or elsewhere. That's 1425 01:18:36,240 --> 01:18:38,040 Speaker 2: one of the things I believe they were commenting on. 1426 01:18:38,640 --> 01:18:41,320 Speaker 2: Is a service member to know and do you or 1427 01:18:41,400 --> 01:18:44,519 Speaker 2: I even know if it's unlawful or lawful to blow 1428 01:18:44,560 --> 01:18:46,679 Speaker 2: up a boat off the shores of Venezuela right now? 1429 01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:48,840 Speaker 2: Don't you need illegal opinion or some sort of ruling 1430 01:18:48,840 --> 01:18:51,320 Speaker 2: from the Supreme Court because this is kind of outside 1431 01:18:51,320 --> 01:18:53,479 Speaker 2: of the realm of the Constitution, which says you have 1432 01:18:53,520 --> 01:18:55,639 Speaker 2: to have a declaration of war to wage war against 1433 01:18:55,640 --> 01:18:59,760 Speaker 2: a foreign country. Congressman Davidson, Well, there's a lot there, 1434 01:19:00,560 --> 01:19:00,760 Speaker 2: you know. 1435 01:19:00,880 --> 01:19:01,600 Speaker 1: Fundamentally. 1436 01:19:01,840 --> 01:19:06,080 Speaker 6: Uh, Look, these guys were trying to sew discord and 1437 01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:10,320 Speaker 6: u division within our military and frankly within our country 1438 01:19:10,920 --> 01:19:12,799 Speaker 6: they thought it would be kind of this cool video 1439 01:19:13,160 --> 01:19:15,880 Speaker 6: or it was actually more malicious than that, And it 1440 01:19:16,040 --> 01:19:20,200 Speaker 6: was frankly designed as an early stage of what you 1441 01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:22,600 Speaker 6: know is a known as a color revolution. This is 1442 01:19:22,640 --> 01:19:25,479 Speaker 6: how you do regime change operations. And a lot of 1443 01:19:25,479 --> 01:19:27,320 Speaker 6: these people know that, well, I mean some of them 1444 01:19:27,400 --> 01:19:32,120 Speaker 6: former CIA backgrounds that you know, this is a doctrinal thing. 1445 01:19:32,600 --> 01:19:36,680 Speaker 6: And if you if you define domestic enemies to the 1446 01:19:36,720 --> 01:19:40,080 Speaker 6: Constitution and then you use a battle cry don't give 1447 01:19:40,160 --> 01:19:44,560 Speaker 6: up the ship. Uh, well, there's a lot of implied 1448 01:19:44,640 --> 01:19:47,160 Speaker 6: things there, and you know, I think they're getting the 1449 01:19:47,160 --> 01:19:50,839 Speaker 6: scrutiny they've deserved for this. Does it does it amount 1450 01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:54,439 Speaker 6: to treason? I don't know. Does it amount to sedition? 1451 01:19:55,040 --> 01:19:57,720 Speaker 6: I'm not sure, but it sure does sound like it's 1452 01:19:57,800 --> 01:20:02,479 Speaker 6: more serious than the seditious conspiracy charges that people were 1453 01:20:02,479 --> 01:20:06,040 Speaker 6: sentenced to long sentences in jail with under underwrite. And 1454 01:20:06,120 --> 01:20:08,480 Speaker 6: so does it count a seditious conspiracy? 1455 01:20:08,800 --> 01:20:09,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. 1456 01:20:09,320 --> 01:20:13,360 Speaker 6: Maybe, But is it really dumb? Absolutely really dumb? And 1457 01:20:13,439 --> 01:20:16,240 Speaker 6: it was meant to divide our country in our military 1458 01:20:16,320 --> 01:20:17,840 Speaker 6: and that it certainly has. 1459 01:20:17,920 --> 01:20:19,960 Speaker 8: So, Look, these. 1460 01:20:19,760 --> 01:20:22,240 Speaker 6: Aren't good people. I mean, when you look at their backgrounds. 1461 01:20:22,280 --> 01:20:24,280 Speaker 6: Yet Okay, they served their country. And that's what I 1462 01:20:24,320 --> 01:20:27,360 Speaker 6: always teld people. Hey, being a veteran's awesome. You should 1463 01:20:27,360 --> 01:20:30,000 Speaker 6: serve your country if you can. It's one of the 1464 01:20:30,040 --> 01:20:31,760 Speaker 6: best decisions I made in my life was to join 1465 01:20:31,800 --> 01:20:34,760 Speaker 6: the army. But let's be clear, being a veteran does 1466 01:20:34,800 --> 01:20:38,080 Speaker 6: not inoculate you from being dumb, and we just saw 1467 01:20:38,120 --> 01:20:38,880 Speaker 6: that with that video. 1468 01:20:40,840 --> 01:20:43,880 Speaker 2: I'm sorry for whatever reason, Bob McDonald's I went to 1469 01:20:43,960 --> 01:20:46,160 Speaker 2: West Point comment just went through my mind when you 1470 01:20:46,200 --> 01:20:50,040 Speaker 2: made that last day in Congressman Davidson. Anyhow, so I 1471 01:20:50,040 --> 01:20:54,080 Speaker 2: guess you know going back to does this constitute seditious behavior? 1472 01:20:54,120 --> 01:20:56,920 Speaker 2: You don't know. I don't know that requires a legal determination. Again, 1473 01:20:57,240 --> 01:21:01,559 Speaker 2: when pressed on all the television programs of the talking heads, 1474 01:21:01,600 --> 01:21:03,559 Speaker 2: each of the individuals who were involved in this video 1475 01:21:03,600 --> 01:21:07,240 Speaker 2: couldn't cite a single illustration of an unlawful order that 1476 01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:09,760 Speaker 2: Trump allegedly has made. So I think they got backed 1477 01:21:09,760 --> 01:21:12,080 Speaker 2: into the corner on that one. But your point is 1478 01:21:12,080 --> 01:21:13,599 Speaker 2: well taken, Congressman Davidson. 1479 01:21:15,200 --> 01:21:17,760 Speaker 6: Well, thanks, Look, I always tell people, Look, when you 1480 01:21:17,800 --> 01:21:20,120 Speaker 6: first get to basic training, make sure you tell the 1481 01:21:20,200 --> 01:21:23,080 Speaker 6: drill sergeant all the things you're not gonna do. It'll 1482 01:21:23,120 --> 01:21:26,280 Speaker 6: really help you get clear on how it works. 1483 01:21:28,160 --> 01:21:32,160 Speaker 2: Oh that's awesome. Congress and Davidson. The other thing I 1484 01:21:32,200 --> 01:21:33,800 Speaker 2: wanted to bring up, and I wanna catch you off 1485 01:21:33,800 --> 01:21:36,080 Speaker 2: guard because I want to hear what you are prime 1486 01:21:36,160 --> 01:21:37,479 Speaker 2: to talk about this morning in terms of all the 1487 01:21:37,520 --> 01:21:39,880 Speaker 2: events that are happening. I saw this bizarre comment, and 1488 01:21:39,920 --> 01:21:42,040 Speaker 2: of course coming from James Carville, you'd expect it to 1489 01:21:42,040 --> 01:21:45,200 Speaker 2: be bizarre. They he wants the Democrats to engage in 1490 01:21:45,360 --> 01:21:48,360 Speaker 2: what he called pure economic rage. This is what they're 1491 01:21:48,360 --> 01:21:50,799 Speaker 2: going to run on. He said, It's time for Democrats 1492 01:21:50,800 --> 01:21:55,160 Speaker 2: who embrace the sweeping, aggressive, unvarnished, unapologetic and altogether unmistakable 1493 01:21:55,240 --> 01:21:59,720 Speaker 2: platform of pure economic rage. This is our only way 1494 01:21:59,720 --> 01:22:02,240 Speaker 2: out of the abyss. He's, of course, focusing on inflation. 1495 01:22:02,720 --> 01:22:05,200 Speaker 2: I know Donald Trump campaigned on lowering inflation, and he 1496 01:22:05,200 --> 01:22:06,599 Speaker 2: said he was going to try to lower it. That's 1497 01:22:06,640 --> 01:22:11,160 Speaker 2: a very complicated thing to engage in, but I guess 1498 01:22:11,800 --> 01:22:14,960 Speaker 2: economic rage. Is there anything the administration can do to 1499 01:22:15,640 --> 01:22:19,320 Speaker 2: cope with inflation practically speaking? Because this clearly is going 1500 01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:21,200 Speaker 2: to be a dominant part of the conversation as we 1501 01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:22,880 Speaker 2: move into next year of the fall election. 1502 01:22:24,760 --> 01:22:24,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1503 01:22:25,000 --> 01:22:28,080 Speaker 6: I mean, look, rage bait is their whole program. And 1504 01:22:28,400 --> 01:22:30,600 Speaker 6: you know they're they're even raging at this. 1505 01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:31,080 Speaker 1: Uh. 1506 01:22:31,479 --> 01:22:34,559 Speaker 6: You know doctor a psychiatrist who says, look, people are 1507 01:22:34,640 --> 01:22:37,680 Speaker 6: coming in TDS is real. These people can't cope. They 1508 01:22:37,680 --> 01:22:40,920 Speaker 6: have Trump derangement syndrome. They're wrecking their own lives, their 1509 01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:45,200 Speaker 6: relationships with friends and family as they obsess about Donald Trump. 1510 01:22:45,640 --> 01:22:49,240 Speaker 6: And that is the Democrat platform is, you know, get Trump, 1511 01:22:49,720 --> 01:22:51,880 Speaker 6: and I think that's going to be their focus. And look, 1512 01:22:51,920 --> 01:22:55,080 Speaker 6: if the economy gives you any any handle to pull on, 1513 01:22:56,000 --> 01:22:58,160 Speaker 6: they'll use that. If there's anything else that they can 1514 01:22:58,200 --> 01:23:00,479 Speaker 6: grab on to, they'll use that. But it is one 1515 01:23:00,560 --> 01:23:05,559 Speaker 6: hundred percent Trump is their platform anti Trump. And so look, 1516 01:23:05,720 --> 01:23:10,519 Speaker 6: is the economy strong. I mean, here's the challenge about 1517 01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:13,679 Speaker 6: the top ten percent of earners are driving about fifty 1518 01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:16,280 Speaker 6: percent of the consumption in our economy. You know, so 1519 01:23:16,720 --> 01:23:19,640 Speaker 6: it is healthy on one end, and the end that 1520 01:23:19,680 --> 01:23:21,840 Speaker 6: it's healthy on is people that already have assets. You 1521 01:23:21,880 --> 01:23:24,960 Speaker 6: already own your home, you've got a retirement account, you've 1522 01:23:24,960 --> 01:23:27,240 Speaker 6: got a job that the wages are maybe keeping up 1523 01:23:27,280 --> 01:23:30,160 Speaker 6: with inflation or insulating you a little better. More disposable 1524 01:23:30,200 --> 01:23:34,880 Speaker 6: income you know, things are you know, relatively good there, 1525 01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:37,599 Speaker 6: but you know, you look at people that don't have assets, 1526 01:23:37,680 --> 01:23:40,080 Speaker 6: that are trying to be first time home buyers, that 1527 01:23:40,120 --> 01:23:43,320 Speaker 6: are in a situation where they're living paycheck to paycheck. Yeah, 1528 01:23:43,360 --> 01:23:46,639 Speaker 6: the rate of increases drop. That's where inflation is lower, 1529 01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:49,479 Speaker 6: but the price level is still very high and wages 1530 01:23:49,520 --> 01:23:52,280 Speaker 6: haven't kept up with that. And frankly, the solution a 1531 01:23:52,280 --> 01:23:55,200 Speaker 6: lot of my colleagues offer is, well, if you care, 1532 01:23:55,280 --> 01:23:58,120 Speaker 6: then you give subsidies. More government is always the answer, 1533 01:23:58,640 --> 01:24:01,160 Speaker 6: and we're suffering from a fall over to us a government. 1534 01:24:01,200 --> 01:24:04,840 Speaker 6: I mean, what causes inflation. It's massively more spending going 1535 01:24:04,840 --> 01:24:08,439 Speaker 6: into the economy, and the things that you subsidize get 1536 01:24:08,479 --> 01:24:11,200 Speaker 6: inflated faster than the rest of the economy. So, yeah, 1537 01:24:11,840 --> 01:24:15,240 Speaker 6: fair point. If you get the subsidy, it is lower 1538 01:24:15,280 --> 01:24:18,160 Speaker 6: for you, but it raises the overall price level for 1539 01:24:18,200 --> 01:24:21,439 Speaker 6: everyone else, and it turns into this endless spiral of well, 1540 01:24:21,479 --> 01:24:24,160 Speaker 6: then we'll have to increase the subsidies. And that's exactly 1541 01:24:24,240 --> 01:24:25,440 Speaker 6: what's going on with Obamacare. 1542 01:24:25,760 --> 01:24:28,400 Speaker 2: Well, indeed, I'm glad you pivoted over to Obamacare. It's 1543 01:24:28,439 --> 01:24:30,439 Speaker 2: what kept the government shut downs along the extension of 1544 01:24:30,479 --> 01:24:33,400 Speaker 2: these subsidies for people who probably could afford a premium. 1545 01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:36,839 Speaker 2: But oh, law and behold, maybe not with the massive 1546 01:24:36,880 --> 01:24:40,320 Speaker 2: increase in Obamacare premiums because of the massive influx of 1547 01:24:40,360 --> 01:24:43,920 Speaker 2: people who were pre existing condition they just join Obamacare 1548 01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:46,640 Speaker 2: after they've been diagnosed with a pretty significant illness. That 1549 01:24:46,760 --> 01:24:51,160 Speaker 2: is just driven the costs into just impossible to manage amounts. 1550 01:24:51,200 --> 01:24:53,840 Speaker 2: That's the problem in the failure with Obamacare right there. 1551 01:24:56,240 --> 01:24:58,639 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I mean fundamentally it was designed to work 1552 01:24:58,680 --> 01:25:02,000 Speaker 6: that way. I mean Republican said it was, and you know, 1553 01:25:02,080 --> 01:25:06,719 Speaker 6: Democrats have been united behind well, Obamacare is their checkdown policy. 1554 01:25:06,720 --> 01:25:11,240 Speaker 6: What they really want is Medicare for all. Medicare this 1555 01:25:11,280 --> 01:25:14,639 Speaker 6: is delivery, the delivery vehicle for it. Because the government 1556 01:25:14,680 --> 01:25:19,120 Speaker 6: just keeps eating a larger and larger portion of the 1557 01:25:19,160 --> 01:25:22,200 Speaker 6: spend and healthcare. I mean, when the Great Society launched 1558 01:25:22,240 --> 01:25:27,160 Speaker 6: back in the sixties under Lyndon Johnson and more government 1559 01:25:27,439 --> 01:25:31,400 Speaker 6: for more things, healthcare was about six percent of the economy. 1560 01:25:31,640 --> 01:25:34,679 Speaker 6: Now it's almost twenty twenty four percent of the economy 1561 01:25:34,840 --> 01:25:38,559 Speaker 6: is healthcare. And of that huge percentages of government. The 1562 01:25:38,640 --> 01:25:43,080 Speaker 6: single largest expense for the federal government is healthcare, and 1563 01:25:43,120 --> 01:25:46,320 Speaker 6: the rate of growth is just eating the world on that, 1564 01:25:46,840 --> 01:25:49,320 Speaker 6: And of the things you could do with the money, 1565 01:25:49,600 --> 01:25:51,880 Speaker 6: the dumbest is send it to the health insurance companies, right, 1566 01:25:51,920 --> 01:25:53,959 Speaker 6: I mean, you can send it to the doctors and hospitals. 1567 01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:56,400 Speaker 6: They're the ones that are providing the care and they 1568 01:25:56,520 --> 01:25:58,600 Speaker 6: ultimately need it. So you could straight pipe it to 1569 01:25:58,640 --> 01:26:00,920 Speaker 6: the doctors and hospitals, or you can send it to 1570 01:26:00,960 --> 01:26:04,240 Speaker 6: the consumer that's actually getting treated. But you send it 1571 01:26:04,280 --> 01:26:07,360 Speaker 6: to this middleman, and the middleman's still giving you double 1572 01:26:07,360 --> 01:26:10,519 Speaker 6: digit increases. They're still saying, well, this is out a network. 1573 01:26:10,560 --> 01:26:15,440 Speaker 6: There's still denying claims, and there's still just terrible service overall. 1574 01:26:16,040 --> 01:26:18,160 Speaker 6: So you go deal with the doctors and nurses and 1575 01:26:18,200 --> 01:26:20,040 Speaker 6: you feel like, how these people really care. They're doing 1576 01:26:20,040 --> 01:26:20,639 Speaker 6: great stuff. 1577 01:26:20,680 --> 01:26:22,000 Speaker 8: You look at the things. 1578 01:26:22,400 --> 01:26:25,840 Speaker 6: Obamacare is by design, in my opinion, a disaster. But 1579 01:26:25,880 --> 01:26:28,280 Speaker 6: either way, let's say it's got the most noble intentions, 1580 01:26:28,320 --> 01:26:31,240 Speaker 6: it still isn't working. And so people away say, well, 1581 01:26:31,280 --> 01:26:34,400 Speaker 6: where's the Republican plan? They've been daried. I mean, we've 1582 01:26:34,439 --> 01:26:37,639 Speaker 6: got dozens of proposals that are out there. I've got 1583 01:26:37,640 --> 01:26:40,960 Speaker 6: several myself. I've always wanted a healthcare committee so that 1584 01:26:41,080 --> 01:26:43,920 Speaker 6: every single hearing is on healthcare, and it's almost twenty 1585 01:26:43,960 --> 01:26:46,200 Speaker 6: percent of the economy. There's no excuse for not having that. 1586 01:26:46,439 --> 01:26:49,200 Speaker 6: Maybe we'll finally get it, but we'll at least get 1587 01:26:49,200 --> 01:26:52,640 Speaker 6: the debate. I hope between now and Christmas, let us 1588 01:26:52,680 --> 01:26:55,680 Speaker 6: debate further with Congressman Davidson. Congressman Davidson will do it. 1589 01:26:55,960 --> 01:26:58,400 Speaker 6: Congressman's choice on the next topic. I know there's a 1590 01:26:58,400 --> 01:26:59,920 Speaker 6: lot of things you want to talk about. Find it 1591 01:27:00,080 --> 01:27:02,759 Speaker 6: amount of time this morning, but we'll hear what Congressman 1592 01:27:02,800 --> 01:27:05,519 Speaker 6: Davison has to say after these brief words.

I think one of the biggest 1623 01:28:23,520 --> 01:28:25,640 Speaker 6: things is what is Congress doing? I mean, you know, 1624 01:28:25,800 --> 01:28:28,439 Speaker 6: you'd go to Congress and you're sitting here looking at 1625 01:28:28,439 --> 01:28:31,799 Speaker 6: President Trump getting executive orders, all kinds of executive actions, 1626 01:28:32,160 --> 01:28:34,840 Speaker 6: and people are like, well, why aren't we codifying President 1627 01:28:34,880 --> 01:28:37,800 Speaker 6: Trump's executive orders? And you know, some of that frustration 1628 01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:42,840 Speaker 6: was voiced by Marjorie Taylor Green with her resignation, and 1629 01:28:42,880 --> 01:28:45,040 Speaker 6: I think a lot of my colleagues feel that sense 1630 01:28:45,080 --> 01:28:49,280 Speaker 6: of frustration, and it's you know, where's the play call? 1631 01:28:49,320 --> 01:28:51,599 Speaker 6: And I remember when I was first in Congress back 1632 01:28:51,640 --> 01:28:55,200 Speaker 6: in you know, twenty seventeen, I replaced speaker Bainer came in, 1633 01:28:55,439 --> 01:28:58,080 Speaker 6: Paul Ryan was speaker, and I had this little booklet 1634 01:28:58,120 --> 01:29:00,080 Speaker 6: called a Better Way. They had. It was basically the 1635 01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:02,920 Speaker 6: offensive playbook. Here's the things we're going to do. And 1636 01:29:02,920 --> 01:29:06,000 Speaker 6: people say, well, why aren't you doing XYZ? And I go, well, 1637 01:29:06,240 --> 01:29:08,080 Speaker 6: I don't know, but there's a place he here's the 1638 01:29:08,120 --> 01:29:10,439 Speaker 6: bullet points, and you could say this is a plan 1639 01:29:11,040 --> 01:29:13,320 Speaker 6: right now. There are a lot of things where it's like, well, 1640 01:29:13,360 --> 01:29:15,719 Speaker 6: we didn't even have the playbook for some of this stuff, 1641 01:29:16,080 --> 01:29:19,320 Speaker 6: and when we do, there's a coalition of folks that 1642 01:29:19,479 --> 01:29:22,000 Speaker 6: sort of say, well, let's not do that. And some 1643 01:29:22,120 --> 01:29:24,519 Speaker 6: of it's the administration some of the things that they 1644 01:29:24,560 --> 01:29:27,280 Speaker 6: want to do, Like, for example, look, I think it's fine. 1645 01:29:27,280 --> 01:29:30,240 Speaker 6: It's a preemptive strike to take out drug boats in 1646 01:29:30,280 --> 01:29:33,719 Speaker 6: the Caribbean. Seems like you say, hey, you should get authorization. Great, 1647 01:29:33,760 --> 01:29:36,479 Speaker 6: let's just do the authorization. I'm for it. These guys 1648 01:29:36,479 --> 01:29:39,759 Speaker 6: are bringing infentanyl that are killing people right here in Ohio. 1649 01:29:39,920 --> 01:29:41,840 Speaker 6: To me, it's a preemptive strike. They plan it on 1650 01:29:41,920 --> 01:29:44,080 Speaker 6: killing Americans. We're going to stop them from doing it. 1651 01:29:44,960 --> 01:29:47,760 Speaker 6: And you know, do I feel that way about every 1652 01:29:47,880 --> 01:29:51,680 Speaker 6: kind of drug that's going on. No, but these cartels 1653 01:29:51,720 --> 01:29:55,080 Speaker 6: are to me enemies of our country. They've been designated 1654 01:29:55,120 --> 01:29:57,880 Speaker 6: that way, and I think they're legitimate targets. But let's 1655 01:29:57,880 --> 01:30:00,880 Speaker 6: have the debate on the floor. Administration concerned that if 1656 01:30:00,880 --> 01:30:02,800 Speaker 6: we do that, well, then it might imply they don't 1657 01:30:02,800 --> 01:30:05,840 Speaker 6: have the authority to do whatever they want and that 1658 01:30:05,880 --> 01:30:08,400 Speaker 6: would disrupt what they're actually doing. So you have that 1659 01:30:08,439 --> 01:30:10,840 Speaker 6: on issue after issue. At the border, we've got a 1660 01:30:10,880 --> 01:30:13,920 Speaker 6: secure border. Where are the laws that change this and 1661 01:30:14,000 --> 01:30:16,040 Speaker 6: codify it. A lot of times they don't want to 1662 01:30:16,040 --> 01:30:18,960 Speaker 6: bring those up because they're afraid they'll fail, or in 1663 01:30:19,000 --> 01:30:22,559 Speaker 6: some cases we've passed bills in the House and they're 1664 01:30:22,600 --> 01:30:24,559 Speaker 6: waiting on sixty votes in the Senate. We just saw 1665 01:30:24,560 --> 01:30:27,479 Speaker 6: how important sixty votes is to get something through the 1666 01:30:27,520 --> 01:30:33,320 Speaker 6: Senate with the shutdown. But if you break the filibuster, 1667 01:30:33,600 --> 01:30:35,880 Speaker 6: now you can't use that excuse anymore. You've got to vote. 1668 01:30:35,960 --> 01:30:38,920 Speaker 6: And honestly, some of the Senators don't want to vote. 1669 01:30:38,760 --> 01:30:41,040 Speaker 2: Hiding behind the filibusters so they don't have to go 1670 01:30:41,120 --> 01:30:41,639 Speaker 2: on record. 1671 01:30:43,640 --> 01:30:46,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, that definitely happens. And of course anyone 1672 01:30:46,439 --> 01:30:48,920 Speaker 6: senator can kind of put their thumb on a bill 1673 01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:51,639 Speaker 6: and hold it up and cause delays and everything. They've 1674 01:30:51,680 --> 01:30:54,960 Speaker 6: got their own process. But there are a host of 1675 01:30:55,040 --> 01:30:58,120 Speaker 6: reasons why everybody's frustrated right now. And I think the 1676 01:30:58,160 --> 01:31:00,639 Speaker 6: other one may be the most common question gotten since 1677 01:31:00,680 --> 01:31:03,320 Speaker 6: I've been elected, as you know, when is someone going 1678 01:31:03,360 --> 01:31:05,920 Speaker 6: to jail? And I think that's why the Epstein thing 1679 01:31:05,960 --> 01:31:10,200 Speaker 6: resonates so much. People promised accountability for that, and in frankly, 1680 01:31:10,240 --> 01:31:12,240 Speaker 6: a lot of why Trump's you know, you know, big 1681 01:31:12,240 --> 01:31:14,720 Speaker 6: mad at Thomas Massey and Marjorie Taylor Green as they 1682 01:31:14,840 --> 01:31:17,519 Speaker 6: signed this discharge petition. Mike, I'm willing to work with 1683 01:31:17,560 --> 01:31:21,160 Speaker 6: the Committee of Jurisdiction here on the Oversight Committee they've 1684 01:31:21,200 --> 01:31:25,200 Speaker 6: been releasing documents. I think Pam Bondy's released some documents. 1685 01:31:25,840 --> 01:31:27,600 Speaker 6: It doesn't help to say that it's a hoax and 1686 01:31:27,720 --> 01:31:30,519 Speaker 6: nothing when on the one hand, everybody was going to 1687 01:31:30,560 --> 01:31:32,080 Speaker 6: go to jail that was doing it, and it was 1688 01:31:32,120 --> 01:31:35,759 Speaker 6: a huge scandal. The binders were handed out to journalists 1689 01:31:35,800 --> 01:31:39,160 Speaker 6: and then it just in a matter of weeks disappears, like, 1690 01:31:39,640 --> 01:31:42,880 Speaker 6: where's the explanation for that? That hearing should have happened. 1691 01:31:42,920 --> 01:31:45,400 Speaker 6: It was supposed to during the shutdown. I think it's 1692 01:31:45,439 --> 01:31:48,320 Speaker 6: back on tap for January. But people need an answer 1693 01:31:48,320 --> 01:31:50,720 Speaker 6: for that. And there's no prosecutor in the in the 1694 01:31:50,800 --> 01:31:54,280 Speaker 6: legislative branch, right we keep unearthing all this rage bait 1695 01:31:54,360 --> 01:31:56,880 Speaker 6: for people, and people say, well, what's Congress. 1696 01:31:56,479 --> 01:31:56,800 Speaker 2: Going to do? 1697 01:31:56,880 --> 01:31:59,439 Speaker 6: Well, you know about it because we had the hearings. 1698 01:31:59,479 --> 01:32:02,920 Speaker 6: We've made this stuff public. But the prosecutor is the 1699 01:32:02,960 --> 01:32:05,519 Speaker 6: attorney general. So I would love a hearing, and I've 1700 01:32:05,560 --> 01:32:08,200 Speaker 6: told Jim Jordan, the Chairman of Judiciary, this would be 1701 01:32:08,240 --> 01:32:11,640 Speaker 6: the hearing for me. Don't just bring Pam Bondy in. 1702 01:32:12,720 --> 01:32:15,360 Speaker 6: Bringing Merrick Garland, who was attorney general for Joe Biden. 1703 01:32:15,479 --> 01:32:17,680 Speaker 6: No one had any questions for him, No one had 1704 01:32:17,680 --> 01:32:20,120 Speaker 6: any questions for Joe Biden, why didn't Merrick Garland bring 1705 01:32:20,160 --> 01:32:23,360 Speaker 6: the case? Go back to the previous administration, Bill Barr 1706 01:32:23,760 --> 01:32:28,519 Speaker 6: and Jeff's sessions were Donald Trump's attorney general's his first term, 1707 01:32:28,720 --> 01:32:30,920 Speaker 6: and then go back before that and look at Eric Holder. 1708 01:32:31,200 --> 01:32:33,160 Speaker 6: I would bring every one of those attorneys general. So 1709 01:32:33,240 --> 01:32:35,280 Speaker 6: this is a scandal that's been going on in the 1710 01:32:35,320 --> 01:32:39,439 Speaker 6: news for you know, ten fifteen years at this point, 1711 01:32:40,640 --> 01:32:43,920 Speaker 6: why was there never a case? Brun and have every 1712 01:32:43,920 --> 01:32:45,920 Speaker 6: single one of those attorneys general give an answer. I 1713 01:32:45,960 --> 01:32:48,519 Speaker 6: think that would be a good hearing. But here's the thing, 1714 01:32:48,600 --> 01:32:50,360 Speaker 6: at the end of the day, no matter what comes 1715 01:32:50,360 --> 01:32:52,040 Speaker 6: out of that, people are still going to be going 1716 01:32:52,560 --> 01:32:55,720 Speaker 6: when somebody going to jail, and that's the job of 1717 01:32:56,640 --> 01:32:59,479 Speaker 6: the Attorney general and the US attorneys around the country. 1718 01:32:59,520 --> 01:33:02,880 Speaker 6: So they need to be bringing cases, evidence presented at trial, 1719 01:33:03,240 --> 01:33:06,479 Speaker 6: convictions in jail time. Because it's clear that there's a 1720 01:33:06,680 --> 01:33:09,080 Speaker 6: kind of double standard on this. And I will say 1721 01:33:09,120 --> 01:33:11,559 Speaker 6: Congress has exposed a lot of this, but that's why 1722 01:33:11,600 --> 01:33:14,160 Speaker 6: the frustrations there is. Congress did expose it, but what 1723 01:33:14,200 --> 01:33:15,920 Speaker 6: are we supposed to do about it? And at the 1724 01:33:16,000 --> 01:33:18,840 Speaker 6: end of the day, we could change the funding. We 1725 01:33:18,880 --> 01:33:21,519 Speaker 6: could change some of the rules, we could remove judges, 1726 01:33:21,600 --> 01:33:23,400 Speaker 6: we could do some things. I don't want to say 1727 01:33:23,400 --> 01:33:28,000 Speaker 6: we're powerless here, but you know, it's in action in 1728 01:33:28,080 --> 01:33:31,120 Speaker 6: certain elements of the executive branch, and inaction and components 1729 01:33:31,160 --> 01:33:34,240 Speaker 6: of the legislative branch. And I think people are rightly frustrated. 1730 01:33:33,800 --> 01:33:36,800 Speaker 2: Well and just lying in the sand division between the 1731 01:33:36,800 --> 01:33:40,040 Speaker 2: two party system we have if one side proposes it 1732 01:33:40,080 --> 01:33:43,080 Speaker 2: as glorious and brilliant and bipartisan as it would be, 1733 01:33:43,160 --> 01:33:46,479 Speaker 2: as it's sort of an objective observation of any proposal. 1734 01:33:46,600 --> 01:33:48,920 Speaker 2: Just because one side proposes that, the other side is 1735 01:33:48,960 --> 01:33:51,000 Speaker 2: lockstep against this, which means we're not going to get 1736 01:33:51,000 --> 01:33:51,960 Speaker 2: anywhere with anything. 1737 01:33:53,880 --> 01:33:55,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, and that's where you've got to have 1738 01:33:55,840 --> 01:33:57,479 Speaker 6: a play. So, like, how are we going to make 1739 01:33:57,479 --> 01:33:59,759 Speaker 6: sure we don't get shut down again? By January thirtieth, 1740 01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:02,400 Speaker 6: we should have the we should have the votes on 1741 01:34:02,439 --> 01:34:06,280 Speaker 6: all the appropriations bills. We've got three of the twelve 1742 01:34:06,320 --> 01:34:09,280 Speaker 6: done and so we've got nine more. All of those 1743 01:34:09,320 --> 01:34:12,759 Speaker 6: have made it out of a committee in the House. Anyway, 1744 01:34:12,840 --> 01:34:16,320 Speaker 6: the Appropriations Committee. We need slower time and have the debate, 1745 01:34:16,439 --> 01:34:19,599 Speaker 6: get the amendments pass, the bills and in the House 1746 01:34:19,640 --> 01:34:22,639 Speaker 6: we can pass them on a simple party line vote. 1747 01:34:22,840 --> 01:34:24,559 Speaker 6: Another question is are we going to get the votes 1748 01:34:24,560 --> 01:34:27,640 Speaker 6: in the Senate, And for some of them probably not, 1749 01:34:27,920 --> 01:34:28,479 Speaker 6: So what are we. 1750 01:34:28,400 --> 01:34:29,040 Speaker 1: Going to do about it? 1751 01:34:29,080 --> 01:34:31,439 Speaker 6: And then you could break the filibuster in the Senate. 1752 01:34:31,520 --> 01:34:33,880 Speaker 6: We can't do anything about that in the House. But 1753 01:34:33,960 --> 01:34:37,519 Speaker 6: that's where reconciliation comes in. So normally you're not supposed 1754 01:34:37,560 --> 01:34:41,120 Speaker 6: to put discretionary spending, your normal appropriations in with what's 1755 01:34:41,200 --> 01:34:44,519 Speaker 6: known as mandatory spending. And that's not priority, that's a 1756 01:34:44,920 --> 01:34:47,479 Speaker 6: that's a term. So like if you give it x 1757 01:34:47,560 --> 01:34:50,000 Speaker 6: dollars to run the Department of Defense or the Department 1758 01:34:50,000 --> 01:34:54,680 Speaker 6: of Transportation, et cetera, that's a specific dollar amount. We 1759 01:34:54,720 --> 01:34:58,000 Speaker 6: don't set a specific dollar amount for food stamps, for example, 1760 01:34:58,040 --> 01:35:01,080 Speaker 6: it's like, oh, we just handed out the last EBT card. No, 1761 01:35:01,200 --> 01:35:04,320 Speaker 6: it's that if you qualify, then we spend the money. 1762 01:35:04,360 --> 01:35:07,799 Speaker 6: So that's mandatory. So the mandatory spending side is normally 1763 01:35:07,840 --> 01:35:12,200 Speaker 6: dealt with with reconciliation, but both parties have added components 1764 01:35:12,240 --> 01:35:16,120 Speaker 6: of discretionary spending. Democrats added when they did the Green 1765 01:35:16,160 --> 01:35:20,559 Speaker 6: New Deal named the Inflation Reduction Act. They put you know, 1766 01:35:20,640 --> 01:35:23,320 Speaker 6: EPA funding and things like that in there. And when 1767 01:35:23,360 --> 01:35:26,559 Speaker 6: we did the Big Beautiful bill, we put defense funding 1768 01:35:26,560 --> 01:35:28,879 Speaker 6: and border security funding in there, so those are normally 1769 01:35:28,920 --> 01:35:32,120 Speaker 6: discretionary items. We could just round out whatever we can't 1770 01:35:32,160 --> 01:35:34,679 Speaker 6: pass across the floor of the House and Senate deem 1771 01:35:34,720 --> 01:35:37,480 Speaker 6: it mandatory and basically give a big check to the administration. 1772 01:35:37,640 --> 01:35:40,519 Speaker 6: Say look, just run the government and that would be 1773 01:35:40,560 --> 01:35:43,679 Speaker 6: a true power play because it would be party line, 1774 01:35:44,320 --> 01:35:46,240 Speaker 6: and I think we should be ready to run that 1775 01:35:46,320 --> 01:35:50,240 Speaker 6: play by January thirtieth. Otherwise, you know, Democrats feel like 1776 01:35:50,280 --> 01:35:51,559 Speaker 6: they don't have to negotiate again. 1777 01:35:51,600 --> 01:35:52,639 Speaker 8: It's like, well, they. 1778 01:35:52,560 --> 01:35:55,519 Speaker 6: Kept saying, well, where's your where's your negotiation? It's like, well, 1779 01:35:55,560 --> 01:35:58,360 Speaker 6: the CR was the negotiation. We can't settle for a 1780 01:35:58,360 --> 01:36:01,120 Speaker 6: CR on January thirtieth. We need off events and I'd 1781 01:36:01,120 --> 01:36:03,719 Speaker 6: love to do some of it collaboratively with Democrat votes, 1782 01:36:04,120 --> 01:36:08,559 Speaker 6: but I would be you know, I'm encouraging my leadership 1783 01:36:08,600 --> 01:36:12,280 Speaker 6: team to say, look, we run the reconciliation play, and 1784 01:36:12,479 --> 01:36:14,360 Speaker 6: even if we don't end up running it, we've got 1785 01:36:14,360 --> 01:36:16,800 Speaker 6: it ready. And if they don't want to negotiate, fine, 1786 01:36:16,800 --> 01:36:18,919 Speaker 6: we'll just run a pure party line. 1787 01:36:18,680 --> 01:36:22,360 Speaker 2: PLAYU wash rinse, repeat, Congressman Warren Davidson.

His podcast Charged Conversations as well worthy 1828 01:38:14,680 --> 01:38:16,519 Speaker 2: listen for you, So just go where you get your 1829 01:38:16,520 --> 01:38:20,960 Speaker 2: podcasts and check out brighamccowns Charge Conversations, produced by Joe Strecker. 1830 01:38:21,240 --> 01:38:24,000 Speaker 2: Brigham mccow, it's great to have you in studio. Oh 1831 01:38:24,040 --> 01:38:29,400 Speaker 2: you got that one. We got like twelve microphones in here. 1832 01:38:29,439 --> 01:38:30,800 Speaker 2: He's just trying to figure out which one. I guess 1833 01:38:30,840 --> 01:38:32,479 Speaker 2: I should have cleared that up with him before we started. 1834 01:38:32,479 --> 01:38:35,439 Speaker 2: It looks like NASA in here, Brian, it does. 1835 01:38:36,160 --> 01:38:36,360 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1836 01:38:36,600 --> 01:38:40,680 Speaker 2: I like the old studios much better, Brigham. Uh forecast 1837 01:38:40,800 --> 01:38:43,760 Speaker 2: for global energy demand. What I keep seeing is that 1838 01:38:43,800 --> 01:38:46,120 Speaker 2: the world is short on energy, and that a windmill 1839 01:38:46,160 --> 01:38:48,519 Speaker 2: and a solar panel ain't gonna cut it. I mean, 1840 01:38:48,560 --> 01:38:50,479 Speaker 2: that's just boiling it down to its basic turns Brigham. 1841 01:38:50,520 --> 01:38:52,000 Speaker 2: Not that I'm gonna get an argument from you, but 1842 01:38:52,080 --> 01:38:54,679 Speaker 2: you know, I've been advocating for small modular reactors forever, 1843 01:38:54,720 --> 01:38:56,960 Speaker 2: and it seems now that artificial intelligence companies and the 1844 01:38:57,000 --> 01:39:00,000 Speaker 2: billionaires that run them need that much kind of energy generator. 1845 01:39:00,280 --> 01:39:01,920 Speaker 2: Looks like we're finally going to get something that will 1846 01:39:01,920 --> 01:39:06,800 Speaker 2: deliver on you know, consistent, affordable, reliable, and safe energy. 1847 01:39:07,280 --> 01:39:10,280 Speaker 9: Absolutely, you know, And that's something I talk about right 1848 01:39:10,320 --> 01:39:12,360 Speaker 9: out of the gate everywhere I go, I go, you realize, 1849 01:39:12,400 --> 01:39:15,720 Speaker 9: the world has never used less energy ever, ever, ever, 1850 01:39:16,360 --> 01:39:19,320 Speaker 9: And we've never had an energy transition, and we've had 1851 01:39:19,320 --> 01:39:23,920 Speaker 9: several of them over the years, from whale oil oil, yeah, 1852 01:39:24,040 --> 01:39:26,320 Speaker 9: you know, and so forth to nuclear, but we've never 1853 01:39:26,439 --> 01:39:30,760 Speaker 9: transitioned to a fuel source that provides less energy, i e. 1854 01:39:30,960 --> 01:39:34,000 Speaker 9: Less dense. We've always transitioned into a new fuel that 1855 01:39:34,080 --> 01:39:36,040 Speaker 9: gives us more power, not less. 1856 01:39:36,320 --> 01:39:39,599 Speaker 2: Until now global warming showed up, until global warming whatever. 1857 01:39:39,800 --> 01:39:43,400 Speaker 9: Yeah, but you know, the mot of mine is the agency, 1858 01:39:43,600 --> 01:39:46,280 Speaker 9: international agency that the US set up in the seventies 1859 01:39:46,320 --> 01:39:49,360 Speaker 9: to scope out energy needs has come out with a 1860 01:39:49,479 --> 01:39:54,400 Speaker 9: revised forecast and it shows zero signs of peak oil, 1861 01:39:54,600 --> 01:39:57,840 Speaker 9: meaning when we start using less oil than we used, 1862 01:39:58,000 --> 01:40:02,439 Speaker 9: or peak hydrocarbons. For this very reason, it's gone. That 1863 01:40:02,680 --> 01:40:03,600 Speaker 9: was on the forecast. 1864 01:40:03,760 --> 01:40:05,920 Speaker 2: I remember back in the seventies at it being at 1865 01:40:05,920 --> 01:40:08,120 Speaker 2: a science museum and they showed that when the oil 1866 01:40:08,240 --> 01:40:10,200 Speaker 2: was going to run out, countdown calendar. 1867 01:40:10,360 --> 01:40:14,160 Speaker 9: Yes. And you know, just like with the stock market, 1868 01:40:14,479 --> 01:40:16,360 Speaker 9: a lot of the economists, a lot of stuff we 1869 01:40:16,400 --> 01:40:20,160 Speaker 9: look at are rear facing information. And sometimes it's not 1870 01:40:20,200 --> 01:40:23,360 Speaker 9: one hundred percent accurate. But as of right now, Brian, 1871 01:40:23,479 --> 01:40:26,920 Speaker 9: we have no signs of using less energy in our 1872 01:40:27,040 --> 01:40:30,519 Speaker 9: world because four billion people who live in energy poverty 1873 01:40:30,560 --> 01:40:32,519 Speaker 9: want what you and I have when we get up 1874 01:40:32,560 --> 01:40:34,280 Speaker 9: in the morning and flick on the light switch. 1875 01:40:34,960 --> 01:40:39,320 Speaker 2: Amen to that. Society does not evolved without energy. I'll 1876 01:40:39,320 --> 01:40:41,200 Speaker 2: bring them before we take a break here. I think 1877 01:40:41,240 --> 01:40:43,400 Speaker 2: I've observed. I've said it on the program so many times. 1878 01:40:43,880 --> 01:40:48,280 Speaker 2: This isn't this global climate change stuff is not about 1879 01:40:49,280 --> 01:40:55,520 Speaker 2: climate change. I think it's about restricting our consumption. Abundant 1880 01:40:55,680 --> 01:41:00,720 Speaker 2: energy equals productivity and consumption, and that really is to 1881 01:41:00,760 --> 01:41:02,960 Speaker 2: me the target. They don't want us to have houses, 1882 01:41:03,000 --> 01:41:05,200 Speaker 2: they don't want us to consume we're all going to 1883 01:41:05,280 --> 01:41:07,360 Speaker 2: kill the planet. So how do we get at that, Well, 1884 01:41:07,400 --> 01:41:10,080 Speaker 2: we restrict the people's ability to well move about and 1885 01:41:10,479 --> 01:41:12,280 Speaker 2: engage in productivity because of energy. 1886 01:41:12,479 --> 01:41:14,360 Speaker 9: I think there's a lot of truth to that, and 1887 01:41:14,680 --> 01:41:18,519 Speaker 9: it's a mindset. It's a different mindset, right. You know, 1888 01:41:18,720 --> 01:41:22,400 Speaker 9: you you shouldn't be wealthy, you should be poor, You 1889 01:41:22,439 --> 01:41:25,160 Speaker 9: should live in the collective. We all need to do 1890 01:41:25,280 --> 01:41:28,760 Speaker 9: our part for the common good. And you know that's 1891 01:41:28,800 --> 01:41:31,439 Speaker 9: one viewpoint. But that's not how America was built. That's 1892 01:41:31,439 --> 01:41:33,200 Speaker 9: not how we got to where we were. We're a 1893 01:41:33,280 --> 01:41:35,880 Speaker 9: nation of doers, builders and making it happen. 1894 01:41:35,720 --> 01:41:37,960 Speaker 2: And that makes us evil in the hearts and minds 1895 01:41:37,960 --> 01:41:40,479 Speaker 2: of the leftist, communist, Marxist et cetera of the world. 1896 01:41:40,520 --> 01:41:42,919 Speaker 2: Seven thirty six more with Bring Account from the Hudson Institute. 1897 01:41:43,080 --> 01:41:44,679 Speaker 2: After these brief words, be right back. 1898 01:41:45,600 --> 01:41:49,240 Speaker 4: This is fifty five KRC an iHeartRadio station. 1899 01:41:49,360 --> 01:41:55,200 Speaker 2: Patient seven nine.

Always enjoy hearing from bring him 1902 01:42:00,400 --> 01:42:02,639 Speaker 2: on energy policy is he's of course, he's a member 1903 01:42:02,640 --> 01:42:04,240 Speaker 2: of the Hudson Institute. You can find him on line at 1904 01:42:04,280 --> 01:42:07,639 Speaker 2: Hudson dot org. Really great website there, Brigham Acount cop 1905 01:42:07,680 --> 01:42:11,960 Speaker 2: thirty We had like five gajillion people from all every 1906 01:42:12,080 --> 01:42:15,559 Speaker 2: nation of the planet flying into the rainforests of Brazil 1907 01:42:15,680 --> 01:42:18,600 Speaker 2: and cutting down six hundred thousand acres of rainforest so 1908 01:42:18,640 --> 01:42:22,240 Speaker 2: they can have their Global Climate change convention with their 1909 01:42:22,280 --> 01:42:25,040 Speaker 2: private jets. Blah. So what do they accomplished? 1910 01:42:25,360 --> 01:42:25,640 Speaker 8: You know what? 1911 01:42:26,000 --> 01:42:28,640 Speaker 2: Fly read pretty much nothing. I understand CO two was 1912 01:42:28,640 --> 01:42:30,000 Speaker 2: almost of their boat and topic. 1913 01:42:30,479 --> 01:42:33,280 Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, they really didn't getnywhere. With the United States absent, 1914 01:42:33,600 --> 01:42:37,240 Speaker 9: we didn't send any official delegations, although a few folks 1915 01:42:37,280 --> 01:42:40,799 Speaker 9: went and much to my head scratching, like the chairman 1916 01:42:40,880 --> 01:42:45,360 Speaker 9: of the Chamber of Commerce went, oh, maybe maybe the hell. 1917 01:42:45,200 --> 01:42:47,320 Speaker 2: Of a party brig inview, you know, I mean it's 1918 01:42:47,320 --> 01:42:49,760 Speaker 2: not been It's like getting invited to one of those 1919 01:42:49,760 --> 01:42:51,880 Speaker 2: elite events. I mean you just go for the sake 1920 01:42:51,920 --> 01:42:55,679 Speaker 2: of eating great food and hobnobbing with the bleeding hearts 1921 01:42:55,760 --> 01:42:56,480 Speaker 2: or something. 1922 01:42:56,439 --> 01:42:56,880 Speaker 1: You know it. 1923 01:42:57,360 --> 01:43:00,000 Speaker 9: I read a statistic that said it is the large 1924 01:43:00,680 --> 01:43:04,800 Speaker 9: single emitter of CO two for any event in the 1925 01:43:04,840 --> 01:43:09,760 Speaker 9: world that goes on democracy, over four thousand journalists there. 1926 01:43:10,000 --> 01:43:12,479 Speaker 9: And you know, I read an article from somebody I 1927 01:43:12,479 --> 01:43:15,439 Speaker 9: know at a think tank in Poland this morning that said, oh, 1928 01:43:15,560 --> 01:43:18,680 Speaker 9: with the US gone, China stepped up and their display 1929 01:43:18,760 --> 01:43:21,640 Speaker 9: and their booth shows that they're taking climate leadership. And 1930 01:43:21,640 --> 01:43:26,800 Speaker 9: I'm thinking, is that what it takes just a fancy booth. 1931 01:43:26,560 --> 01:43:31,920 Speaker 2: That's marketing missions. They own the world when it comes 1932 01:43:31,960 --> 01:43:34,559 Speaker 2: to windmills and solar panels, and they want to sell 1933 01:43:34,600 --> 01:43:36,960 Speaker 2: that stuff to every ignorant company or country out there 1934 01:43:36,960 --> 01:43:38,680 Speaker 2: that's willing to cut its throat in the name of 1935 01:43:38,840 --> 01:43:40,080 Speaker 2: eliminating CO two. 1936 01:43:40,360 --> 01:43:42,880 Speaker 9: Yes, you know, and we were talking offline. I had 1937 01:43:42,880 --> 01:43:46,479 Speaker 9: a conversation with a deputy minister, like a deputy cabinet 1938 01:43:46,520 --> 01:43:49,720 Speaker 9: secretary from a very big nation last week who is 1939 01:43:49,960 --> 01:43:55,360 Speaker 9: reemphasizing their commitment to the accelerated deployment of renewables. And 1940 01:43:55,920 --> 01:43:58,240 Speaker 9: I said, you know, China doesn't give a you know 1941 01:43:58,320 --> 01:44:01,080 Speaker 9: what about any of this, none of it. And I 1942 01:44:01,080 --> 01:44:03,000 Speaker 9: got a blank stareback. But I said, I'd give them 1943 01:44:03,040 --> 01:44:06,679 Speaker 9: an a plus for energy security because they are doing 1944 01:44:07,000 --> 01:44:11,960 Speaker 9: exactly that what the definition of energy security is, which 1945 01:44:12,120 --> 01:44:17,519 Speaker 9: makes you prosperous, you know, having unlimited energy at an 1946 01:44:17,520 --> 01:44:20,960 Speaker 9: affordable price, that is reliable and when and where you 1947 01:44:21,080 --> 01:44:21,679 Speaker 9: need it. 1948 01:44:21,680 --> 01:44:24,400 Speaker 2: It's all of the above strategy. Yeah, they do it all. 1949 01:44:24,520 --> 01:44:26,840 Speaker 2: Build a couple of coal plants every few weeks, and 1950 01:44:26,880 --> 01:44:29,479 Speaker 2: they build nukes, and they have they use hydro power, 1951 01:44:29,520 --> 01:44:31,240 Speaker 2: I will acknowledge. I'm sure they even use some of 1952 01:44:31,280 --> 01:44:33,840 Speaker 2: their own solar panels and windmills, but they do. They 1953 01:44:33,880 --> 01:44:36,720 Speaker 2: don't shy away from anything that produces carbon dioxide. 1954 01:44:36,880 --> 01:44:39,559 Speaker 9: No, they don't at all. In fact, you know, the 1955 01:44:39,560 --> 01:44:44,080 Speaker 9: emissions of China and India have increased two and a 1956 01:44:44,160 --> 01:44:49,759 Speaker 9: half times what Western Europe and the US have reduced. Germany, 1957 01:44:50,479 --> 01:44:54,439 Speaker 9: well it's not you can't. You can't build anything in Germany. 1958 01:44:55,280 --> 01:44:58,519 Speaker 9: And you know, on the car front, the Germans also 1959 01:44:58,560 --> 01:45:02,479 Speaker 9: don't understand that byd a German Man or a Chinese 1960 01:45:02,479 --> 01:45:05,080 Speaker 9: manufacturer which makes evs pretty cheaply. 1961 01:45:05,160 --> 01:45:05,680 Speaker 2: Of course they do. 1962 01:45:06,080 --> 01:45:09,560 Speaker 9: They have a factory that is almost larger than San Francisco. 1963 01:45:10,120 --> 01:45:15,320 Speaker 9: But don't worry out EVW, BMW Mercedes they got this now. 1964 01:45:15,360 --> 01:45:17,840 Speaker 2: They don't bigger than the city of San Francisco. 1965 01:45:18,040 --> 01:45:21,519 Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, wow, the main part, you know, the main 1966 01:45:21,560 --> 01:45:24,679 Speaker 9: part right there. Yeah, So no, these guys are scaling 1967 01:45:24,800 --> 01:45:28,320 Speaker 9: up in China. They see this as a lever for 1968 01:45:28,520 --> 01:45:33,280 Speaker 9: economic productivity and frankly canceling the rest of the world's 1969 01:45:33,560 --> 01:45:36,400 Speaker 9: industrial capacity, which is what they do. They go into 1970 01:45:36,439 --> 01:45:38,880 Speaker 9: a new market, they dump steel, they drive locals out 1971 01:45:38,920 --> 01:45:41,559 Speaker 9: of business, then they raise the rates. This is not 1972 01:45:41,760 --> 01:45:44,360 Speaker 9: new for anybody. Why don't we get ahead of that. 1973 01:45:44,600 --> 01:45:48,720 Speaker 9: I mean, this religious component that is climate change is 1974 01:45:49,280 --> 01:45:52,320 Speaker 9: so fully brainwashed people that like the blank stare you 1975 01:45:52,360 --> 01:45:56,559 Speaker 9: got from the leader from that very large country talking 1976 01:45:56,600 --> 01:45:59,679 Speaker 9: about pursuing the CO two emissions and limiting it to zero. 1977 01:45:59,800 --> 01:46:01,680 Speaker 9: And when you point something like that out, you just 1978 01:46:01,720 --> 01:46:04,520 Speaker 9: get looked at. They don't want to engage in that discussion. 1979 01:46:04,560 --> 01:46:06,360 Speaker 9: I mean, this whole COP thirty, you got people from 1980 01:46:06,400 --> 01:46:09,000 Speaker 9: all over the planet. Nobody's raising their hands saying, wait 1981 01:46:09,040 --> 01:46:12,400 Speaker 9: a second, what about China and India. Australia reduced its 1982 01:46:12,400 --> 01:46:16,200 Speaker 9: carbon emissions down to virtually nothing, but what they negated 1983 01:46:16,240 --> 01:46:20,400 Speaker 9: from the atmosphere China emits. I think I read ten days, yes, 1984 01:46:20,680 --> 01:46:27,519 Speaker 9: ten days for the entire annual effort of an entire continent. Australia. Yeah, yeah, Well, 1985 01:46:27,600 --> 01:46:29,599 Speaker 9: I think it's a mixed bag. I think there are 1986 01:46:29,680 --> 01:46:33,360 Speaker 9: some people who know the truth, but they don't want 1987 01:46:33,360 --> 01:46:37,479 Speaker 9: to speak up for getting labeled a denier. There are 1988 01:46:37,520 --> 01:46:42,000 Speaker 9: other people that, you know, really do believe this. And look, 1989 01:46:42,040 --> 01:46:44,439 Speaker 9: I get it. We all want to be good stewards 1990 01:46:44,479 --> 01:46:48,120 Speaker 9: the environment. But carbon dioxide's plant food, brig them. Yeah, yeah, 1991 01:46:48,240 --> 01:46:51,160 Speaker 9: it's a fraction of the environment. It's not mercury, it's 1992 01:46:51,200 --> 01:46:54,479 Speaker 9: not lead, it's not something that is carcinogenic. It exists 1993 01:46:54,560 --> 01:46:59,120 Speaker 9: naturally in the environment. It's plant food. If we want 1994 01:46:59,120 --> 01:47:02,160 Speaker 9: to be serious out fighting pollution, there are other types 1995 01:47:02,160 --> 01:47:06,920 Speaker 9: of pollution that cause asthma respiratory disease. And you know, 1996 01:47:07,280 --> 01:47:09,479 Speaker 9: here's the other thing, though, is we have some of 1997 01:47:09,520 --> 01:47:14,280 Speaker 9: the cleanest actually the cleanest water on record, the cleanest 1998 01:47:14,400 --> 01:47:17,240 Speaker 9: air on record since the EPA was founded in the 1999 01:47:17,280 --> 01:47:22,240 Speaker 9: early seventies by the Nixon administration. People forget that point. 2000 01:47:22,400 --> 01:47:27,080 Speaker 9: The Republicans did that, just like the Department of the 2001 01:47:27,120 --> 01:47:31,479 Speaker 9: Interior is cleaned up. I mean, we're doing better than 2002 01:47:31,479 --> 01:47:32,440 Speaker 9: we've done. 2003 01:47:32,400 --> 01:47:34,640 Speaker 2: Without question, I mean in my lifetime. And you know, 2004 01:47:34,720 --> 01:47:36,600 Speaker 2: say what you want about Circle and the cleanups and 2005 01:47:36,640 --> 01:47:39,599 Speaker 2: all that that resulted in a cleaner environment. And Brigham, 2006 01:47:39,960 --> 01:47:43,240 Speaker 2: how do you get to a cleaner environment? Does it 2007 01:47:43,320 --> 01:47:48,000 Speaker 2: not take wealth? Lots of wealth. You don't have clean 2008 01:47:48,160 --> 01:47:50,000 Speaker 2: until you get to the point where you're comfortable and 2009 01:47:50,040 --> 01:47:52,360 Speaker 2: you have a growing economy that can afford to deal 2010 01:47:52,439 --> 01:47:55,480 Speaker 2: with the pollution that is a result of that growing economy. 2011 01:47:55,680 --> 01:48:00,120 Speaker 9: Absolutely, And if you only look at we import, you know, 2012 01:48:00,360 --> 01:48:04,040 Speaker 9: solar panels and windmills from China, but yet we don't 2013 01:48:04,080 --> 01:48:08,519 Speaker 9: consider the pollution that is made by producing those. We've 2014 01:48:08,560 --> 01:48:12,639 Speaker 9: off shored all of our climate concerns to somebody else. 2015 01:48:12,760 --> 01:48:16,240 Speaker 2: And the European Union buying Russian gas and oil. Okay, 2016 01:48:16,280 --> 01:48:18,360 Speaker 2: as long as we're not producing it, we can burn it. 2017 01:48:18,439 --> 01:48:21,360 Speaker 2: We just we have clean hands because we're not the 2018 01:48:21,400 --> 01:48:25,960 Speaker 2: source of it. That's just, it's crazy questioning this the 2019 01:48:26,080 --> 01:48:28,040 Speaker 2: dogma that goes along with this. Come on, I'll be 2020 01:48:28,080 --> 01:48:31,320 Speaker 2: the first person to question this morning. They'll come back 2021 01:48:31,360 --> 01:48:34,479 Speaker 2: with any plausible explanation for why they cling to the 2022 01:48:34,479 --> 01:48:36,320 Speaker 2: dogma and the doctor and seven forty six more with 2023 01:48:36,360 --> 01:48:39,280 Speaker 2: Brigham A. Cown and come up first. Galaxy Concrete again 2024 01:48:39,320 --> 01:48:43,360 Speaker 2: another positive Rave review for Galaxy Concrete Coating. I've seen 2025 01:48:43,400 --> 01:48:45,120 Speaker 2: it up close in personal. Now that my daughter and 2026 01:48:45,240 --> 01:48:49,799 Speaker 2: Eric's patio has been done, what looked terrible before looks 2027 01:48:49,880 --> 01:48:51,960 Speaker 2: amazing now. And that will be the case for any 2028 01:48:52,000 --> 01:48:56,320 Speaker 2: concrete surface you've got in your home or your business.

We'll dispense the traffics 2045 01:49:45,200 --> 01:49:47,320 Speaker 2: weather in order to get the thoughts and comments at 2046 01:49:47,320 --> 01:49:51,920 Speaker 2: bring mc cown Hudson Institute Energy Policy expert charged Conversations 2047 01:49:51,960 --> 01:49:54,640 Speaker 2: as the podcast need to check out and bring them. 2048 01:49:54,680 --> 01:49:57,200 Speaker 2: You said you have another comment about COP thirty before 2049 01:49:57,200 --> 01:49:59,280 Speaker 2: we move on. Obviously thirty meaning they've been at this 2050 01:49:59,400 --> 01:50:01,000 Speaker 2: for thirty years. 2051 01:50:01,160 --> 01:50:03,920 Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, And I guess that's the point the Conference 2052 01:50:04,000 --> 01:50:06,960 Speaker 9: of the Parties, as it's now not necessarily governments but 2053 01:50:07,120 --> 01:50:10,680 Speaker 9: delegations parties in a fairly loose term, COP. 2054 01:50:10,760 --> 01:50:13,120 Speaker 2: The religious loyal Yeah, we're we've. 2055 01:50:13,000 --> 01:50:17,120 Speaker 9: Been doing this three decades, thirty plus years, and we're 2056 01:50:17,200 --> 01:50:24,840 Speaker 9: no closer to resolution frankly, because you know, each one 2057 01:50:24,880 --> 01:50:28,000 Speaker 9: of these tries to pay over different paper over differences 2058 01:50:28,040 --> 01:50:32,559 Speaker 9: between countries, and in some cases you have countries wanting 2059 01:50:32,600 --> 01:50:36,200 Speaker 9: to fleece those who do have money. Oh they're on record, 2060 01:50:36,600 --> 01:50:38,920 Speaker 9: Yeah you got you gotta pay me, you gotta pay me. 2061 01:50:39,560 --> 01:50:43,600 Speaker 2: They want to triple the amount for climate transition issues 2062 01:50:43,680 --> 01:50:47,080 Speaker 2: in their respective third world countries. That means building stuff 2063 01:50:47,080 --> 01:50:49,360 Speaker 2: and things that they can afford because they're miserable economies. 2064 01:50:49,360 --> 01:50:50,600 Speaker 2: They want us to show to the burden of it. 2065 01:50:50,640 --> 01:50:53,160 Speaker 2: Nothing has anything to do with global warming or climate 2066 01:50:53,240 --> 01:50:56,360 Speaker 2: change or sea level rises, which apparently aren't really happening. 2067 01:50:56,600 --> 01:50:59,120 Speaker 2: It's just they've used this vehicle as a mechanism to 2068 01:50:59,160 --> 01:51:03,800 Speaker 2: guilt us into paying for stuff. There absolutely well free 2069 01:51:03,840 --> 01:51:04,919 Speaker 2: distribution mechanism. 2070 01:51:05,240 --> 01:51:09,280 Speaker 9: It is a wealth redistribution for sure, and you know 2071 01:51:09,360 --> 01:51:13,880 Speaker 9: it'll do nothing to reduce hydrocarbon demand. Yet you know 2072 01:51:13,960 --> 01:51:16,720 Speaker 9: everyone lines up every year for the big party, as 2073 01:51:16,760 --> 01:51:21,519 Speaker 9: you've pointed out, and with the developing country saying, hey, 2074 01:51:22,080 --> 01:51:26,200 Speaker 9: we'd like more emphasis this year on getting off coal. Sorry, 2075 01:51:26,479 --> 01:51:29,880 Speaker 9: and news flash, twenty twenty five, we will have used 2076 01:51:29,920 --> 01:51:34,040 Speaker 9: more coal this year than any other year in record, 2077 01:51:34,320 --> 01:51:37,000 Speaker 9: even though we're not using as much of it other 2078 01:51:37,040 --> 01:51:37,519 Speaker 9: people are. 2079 01:51:37,720 --> 01:51:39,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, at least the folks in eastern Kentucky can 2080 01:51:39,960 --> 01:51:42,360 Speaker 2: have a livelihood by selling it to other countries who 2081 01:51:42,400 --> 01:51:43,280 Speaker 2: aren't stupid. 2082 01:51:43,880 --> 01:51:48,240 Speaker 9: Yeah. And by the way, we have really neat new 2083 01:51:48,280 --> 01:51:52,799 Speaker 9: technology that removes most of the pollutants from coal. Ohio 2084 01:51:52,840 --> 01:51:56,440 Speaker 9: State's developing something that emits zero emissions from coal. 2085 01:51:56,760 --> 01:51:59,120 Speaker 2: No kidding. Yeah, it comes at a large expense though 2086 01:51:59,120 --> 01:52:02,360 Speaker 2: for the coaltors. That's the downside risk it does. Indeed, 2087 01:52:02,760 --> 01:52:05,120 Speaker 2: so I'd rather have the small modular reactor if you 2088 01:52:05,160 --> 01:52:08,200 Speaker 2: deal with the regulatory reform and we get these streamline. 2089 01:52:08,240 --> 01:52:10,960 Speaker 2: These things are one size fits all, like putting legos together. 2090 01:52:11,000 --> 01:52:13,040 Speaker 2: Once you get a design that works, you can PLoP 2091 01:52:13,080 --> 01:52:14,720 Speaker 2: it down and they're small footprint. 2092 01:52:14,880 --> 01:52:16,519 Speaker 9: Yeah they are. And you know, we've talked about this 2093 01:52:16,560 --> 01:52:19,519 Speaker 9: before that no two reactors across the United States are identical, 2094 01:52:19,680 --> 01:52:21,040 Speaker 9: which obviously makes no sense. 2095 01:52:21,120 --> 01:52:21,280 Speaker 1: Right. 2096 01:52:21,320 --> 01:52:23,720 Speaker 9: You come up with a copy that works, and then 2097 01:52:23,760 --> 01:52:26,879 Speaker 9: you replicate it, and the SMRs can be plugged in together. 2098 01:52:27,600 --> 01:52:30,719 Speaker 9: So if you need you know, twenty gigawatts, forty gigawats, 2099 01:52:30,720 --> 01:52:33,720 Speaker 9: one hundred gigawatts, you just plug them all in. And 2100 01:52:33,760 --> 01:52:36,559 Speaker 9: so this takes care of the permitting everything else. And 2101 01:52:36,680 --> 01:52:39,920 Speaker 9: by the way, the US government just issued a loan 2102 01:52:40,240 --> 01:52:43,880 Speaker 9: guarantee of one billion dollars to restart three Mile Island. 2103 01:52:44,680 --> 01:52:46,560 Speaker 2: Now does that make sense to you? 2104 01:52:46,560 --> 01:52:51,080 Speaker 9: You know, it's the fastest thing that's available because it's there, 2105 01:52:51,439 --> 01:52:54,559 Speaker 9: and the reactors themselves are going to have to be recreated. 2106 01:52:54,600 --> 01:52:57,800 Speaker 9: But no, I would rather build a brand new advanced 2107 01:52:58,160 --> 01:53:03,560 Speaker 9: generation reactor which requires far lower enriched uranium. The byproducts 2108 01:53:03,600 --> 01:53:05,920 Speaker 9: that are recyclable, so we get rid of the storage 2109 01:53:06,000 --> 01:53:09,840 Speaker 9: issue for contaminated stuff. But you know it's going to 2110 01:53:09,920 --> 01:53:15,280 Speaker 9: take five to eight years to get online, So it's rebanned. 2111 01:53:15,400 --> 01:53:17,719 Speaker 2: Opening three miles going to take five to eight years. 2112 01:53:17,760 --> 01:53:20,840 Speaker 9: Oh no, sorry, building something new, building something new, right. 2113 01:53:20,800 --> 01:53:23,040 Speaker 2: I thought Westinghouse already had these things ready to go, 2114 01:53:23,240 --> 01:53:24,240 Speaker 2: just like off the shelf. 2115 01:53:24,760 --> 01:53:28,639 Speaker 9: Well they do, but frankly, we need permitting reform. 2116 01:53:28,880 --> 01:53:31,519 Speaker 2: That's see, that's the problem. It's not the availability of 2117 01:53:31,520 --> 01:53:33,599 Speaker 2: the technology, of the ability to build it. It's the 2118 01:53:33,640 --> 01:53:37,760 Speaker 2: permitting reform. It's the environmental lawsuits that gets slopped down 2119 01:53:37,760 --> 01:53:41,559 Speaker 2: in front of it. It's just the multitude of self 2120 01:53:41,720 --> 01:53:49,040 Speaker 2: created impediments and roadblocks to the efficient building these reactors. 2121 01:53:49,240 --> 01:53:52,360 Speaker 9: It absolutely is. And you know, you have both sides 2122 01:53:52,360 --> 01:53:55,400 Speaker 9: of the aisle in DC say we need permitting reform. 2123 01:53:55,479 --> 01:53:58,600 Speaker 9: But the truth is the left doesn't want what the 2124 01:53:58,680 --> 01:54:01,280 Speaker 9: right wants to build. The right doesn't want what the 2125 01:54:01,360 --> 01:54:04,799 Speaker 9: left wants to build, and so we don't build anything, 2126 01:54:05,600 --> 01:54:07,960 Speaker 9: which is just completely backwards right. 2127 01:54:07,920 --> 01:54:09,920 Speaker 2: Right, mean, well, China keeps moving forward. 2128 01:54:10,200 --> 01:54:12,360 Speaker 9: Yeah, they don't have a permitting reform problem, either does 2129 01:54:12,439 --> 01:54:13,320 Speaker 9: Russia or India. 2130 01:54:13,400 --> 01:54:15,439 Speaker 2: No, they don't know, they just do it. Yeah, it's 2131 01:54:15,520 --> 01:54:17,519 Speaker 2: maybe a reflection of the failed system of government we 2132 01:54:17,520 --> 01:54:20,360 Speaker 2: have here, Brigham. I hate to cast dispersions on Congress 2133 01:54:20,400 --> 01:54:22,479 Speaker 2: and the fact that we have separation of powers and 2134 01:54:22,760 --> 01:54:25,720 Speaker 2: Congress should be sitting down for the benefit of all 2135 01:54:25,840 --> 01:54:28,719 Speaker 2: American people and get a better or more efficient energy 2136 01:54:28,760 --> 01:54:32,400 Speaker 2: production and distribution web here in the United States. But no, not, 2137 01:54:32,440 --> 01:54:33,839 Speaker 2: they'd rather fight amongst themselves. 2138 01:54:33,880 --> 01:54:35,560 Speaker 9: Well, and if I may real quickly, I did a 2139 01:54:35,880 --> 01:54:38,520 Speaker 9: Charge Conversations episode a couple of weeks ago during the 2140 01:54:38,560 --> 01:54:41,120 Speaker 9: government shutdown that said Who's to blame? And it went 2141 01:54:41,240 --> 01:54:45,120 Speaker 9: into the detail of what Congress's job is and why 2142 01:54:45,160 --> 01:54:47,480 Speaker 9: they're not doing it and what needs to be done. 2143 01:54:47,560 --> 01:54:51,000 Speaker 2: Well, there's another reason to find Brigham acgown Charged Conversations 2144 01:54:51,040 --> 01:54:54,560 Speaker 2: where we get your podcasts and prop suggest tracker for 2145 01:54:54,560 --> 01:54:57,160 Speaker 2: producing that one Brigham account.

So you know, we've 2191 01:57:05,480 --> 01:57:11,040 Speaker 10: always had a problem with foreign influence. Yes, of course, 2192 01:57:11,400 --> 01:57:14,000 Speaker 10: the two sides of the country kind of disagree who's 2193 01:57:14,040 --> 01:57:20,200 Speaker 10: influencing what right. So you know, people had been begging 2194 01:57:21,560 --> 01:57:25,080 Speaker 10: Elon and his team of Twitter now known as X 2195 01:57:25,560 --> 01:57:29,240 Speaker 10: to have this feature saying what country are these are 2196 01:57:29,320 --> 01:57:31,280 Speaker 10: these people frump that are posting? 2197 01:57:31,600 --> 01:57:31,800 Speaker 1: Right? 2198 01:57:32,360 --> 01:57:35,280 Speaker 10: They finally added it. They had a live for a 2199 01:57:35,360 --> 01:57:37,760 Speaker 10: couple hours and turned it off because there was problems, 2200 01:57:37,800 --> 01:57:41,440 Speaker 10: but then it relaunched over the weekend and you know, 2201 01:57:41,600 --> 01:57:45,240 Speaker 10: suddenly all these eyes were opened. Because we have a 2202 01:57:45,320 --> 01:57:50,240 Speaker 10: lot of accounts, especially in the political area, where there 2203 01:57:50,240 --> 01:57:53,040 Speaker 10: are anonymous accounts. You know, they don't have a real 2204 01:57:53,160 --> 01:57:56,560 Speaker 10: person name on there that is a known person, you know, 2205 01:57:56,640 --> 01:57:59,960 Speaker 10: like a Brian Thomas account as you but you know, 2206 01:58:00,320 --> 01:58:02,520 Speaker 10: American patriot, who the heck is that? 2207 01:58:02,760 --> 01:58:03,000 Speaker 2: Right? 2208 01:58:04,200 --> 01:58:06,600 Speaker 10: A lot of those accounts, to your point, are in 2209 01:58:06,720 --> 01:58:12,320 Speaker 10: places ranging from Romania to you know, Australia in some cases, 2210 01:58:12,720 --> 01:58:17,160 Speaker 10: but a lot of them are in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. 2211 01:58:17,200 --> 01:58:22,000 Speaker 10: So suddenly all these people go turn into super salutes 2212 01:58:22,480 --> 01:58:26,400 Speaker 10: and they're looking at what these accounts are posting. Now. 2213 01:58:27,040 --> 01:58:31,160 Speaker 10: The leftist response to this is haha, conservatism is fake, 2214 01:58:31,280 --> 01:58:34,520 Speaker 10: Maga is fake because all these accounts are fake. But 2215 01:58:35,040 --> 01:58:38,680 Speaker 10: that's not true when you look at it. The political 2216 01:58:38,720 --> 01:58:43,520 Speaker 10: accounts based in these foreign countries are all posting divisions. 2217 01:58:43,560 --> 01:58:47,760 Speaker 2: It's all about that o. The conservative movement this for years, 2218 01:58:47,760 --> 01:58:49,920 Speaker 2: and I'm so I was so excited about this article. 2219 01:58:49,960 --> 01:58:51,560 Speaker 2: I'm glad you thought of me because I've been saying 2220 01:58:51,560 --> 01:58:53,600 Speaker 2: this out loud on the program for years without you know, 2221 01:58:54,200 --> 01:58:57,600 Speaker 2: support for what I was concluding. But social media, it's 2222 01:58:57,640 --> 01:58:59,760 Speaker 2: so easy if you're a foreign actor and you want 2223 01:58:59,800 --> 01:59:03,000 Speaker 2: to grew with America, and America is you know, embracing 2224 01:59:03,080 --> 01:59:05,360 Speaker 2: under the umbell of freedom. That's one thing at least 2225 01:59:05,440 --> 01:59:08,240 Speaker 2: you can unite under. Well, we need to disable that, 2226 01:59:08,280 --> 01:59:11,080 Speaker 2: we need to interfere with that. Let us choose any 2227 01:59:11,120 --> 01:59:13,760 Speaker 2: given subject matter and stir the pot of division. And 2228 01:59:13,800 --> 01:59:16,720 Speaker 2: we can do that from remote control, from anywhere on 2229 01:59:16,800 --> 01:59:19,600 Speaker 2: the globe. And this confirms what I've been saying. You're 2230 01:59:19,600 --> 01:59:21,640 Speaker 2: listening to a bunch of foreign actors who want us 2231 01:59:21,640 --> 01:59:24,320 Speaker 2: to fight amongst ourselves over literally anything. 2232 01:59:24,440 --> 01:59:28,240 Speaker 10: Colin, Oh, absolutely true. Now there's you know, there's a 2233 01:59:28,280 --> 01:59:32,000 Speaker 10: couple of important points here. Firstly, the concept of an 2234 01:59:32,040 --> 01:59:36,840 Speaker 10: anonymous account is not by itself evil at all. We've 2235 01:59:36,880 --> 01:59:40,640 Speaker 10: gone through more than a decade of social media cancel culture, 2236 01:59:40,880 --> 01:59:43,040 Speaker 10: where if you're a conservative and you dare to share 2237 01:59:43,040 --> 01:59:45,400 Speaker 10: your opinions, they're going to try to get you fired. 2238 01:59:45,640 --> 01:59:48,480 Speaker 10: They're going to try to get you, you know, kicked out. 2239 01:59:48,320 --> 01:59:49,360 Speaker 1: Of polite society. 2240 01:59:49,800 --> 01:59:53,680 Speaker 10: So that you know, that's okay. But what this has 2241 01:59:53,720 --> 02:00:02,080 Speaker 10: revealed is very sophisticated actions by people to portray typical Americans. 2242 02:00:02,120 --> 02:00:04,080 Speaker 10: To your point, you know, you have an account that 2243 02:00:04,160 --> 02:00:07,800 Speaker 10: portrays itself as a as a you know, a gun 2244 02:00:07,840 --> 02:00:12,360 Speaker 10: slinging Texan likes the barbecue for lunch, and you know 2245 02:00:12,440 --> 02:00:15,280 Speaker 10: drives a jacked a pickup truck. It's a dude in 2246 02:00:15,400 --> 02:00:20,880 Speaker 10: Pakistan that probably works for the Pakistani governments. So you know, 2247 02:00:21,520 --> 02:00:27,600 Speaker 10: big problem. And you know Twitter already had problems with 2248 02:00:27,800 --> 02:00:31,720 Speaker 10: foreigners because you know, the Twitter was one of the 2249 02:00:31,880 --> 02:00:34,440 Speaker 10: one of the big changes under Elon was they launched 2250 02:00:34,480 --> 02:00:38,040 Speaker 10: a program where you can make money as a verified account. 2251 02:00:38,120 --> 02:00:40,800 Speaker 10: You know, if you're driving traffic, if you're doing big numbers, 2252 02:00:40,840 --> 02:00:46,360 Speaker 10: you can make money like advertising and India, Pakistan accounts 2253 02:00:46,400 --> 02:00:49,720 Speaker 10: base these places were completely gaming that system. So your 2254 02:00:49,760 --> 02:00:53,840 Speaker 10: real influencer sitting in the USA were barely making any 2255 02:00:53,880 --> 02:00:57,640 Speaker 10: money because the system was being completely you know, tricked 2256 02:00:58,000 --> 02:01:01,000 Speaker 10: by folks overseas. And he's been trying to straighten that out. 2257 02:01:01,520 --> 02:01:04,680 Speaker 10: Now it's taken a much, much deeper and frankly more 2258 02:01:04,720 --> 02:01:09,440 Speaker 10: sinister turn, because you know, exactly to your point, you 2259 02:01:09,600 --> 02:01:12,640 Speaker 10: and others were saying, these aren't Americans, these are people 2260 02:01:12,680 --> 02:01:15,160 Speaker 10: trying to screw with us. Now we know that's true. 2261 02:01:15,520 --> 02:01:18,360 Speaker 2: Yes, indeed, And you know, I love that he anticipated 2262 02:01:18,400 --> 02:01:21,120 Speaker 2: the VPN workaround. And I'm a big fan of epns 2263 02:01:21,160 --> 02:01:23,600 Speaker 2: even for example, and I use this as an illustration. 2264 02:01:23,960 --> 02:01:26,520 Speaker 2: You got a teenager in a state which doesn't allow 2265 02:01:26,560 --> 02:01:29,320 Speaker 2: teens on pornography sites that state, All you need to 2266 02:01:29,320 --> 02:01:31,080 Speaker 2: do is get on a VPN and pretend like you're 2267 02:01:31,080 --> 02:01:33,280 Speaker 2: in some other state or, as the case may be, 2268 02:01:33,400 --> 02:01:35,720 Speaker 2: some other country. That's where your IP address shows up. 2269 02:01:35,920 --> 02:01:40,200 Speaker 2: That defeats the whole ID check thing because that other state, 2270 02:01:40,280 --> 02:01:43,880 Speaker 2: like Illinois, doesn't have the ID verification, so that's a workaround. 2271 02:01:44,040 --> 02:01:46,720 Speaker 2: Same thing goes here. You could be a foreign actor 2272 02:01:46,920 --> 02:01:48,720 Speaker 2: saying that you're in the United States, but if you 2273 02:01:48,800 --> 02:01:51,960 Speaker 2: use a VPN from Bangladesh, it might look like you're 2274 02:01:51,960 --> 02:01:55,280 Speaker 2: in Chicago or Saint Louis or Cincinnati. That's what the 2275 02:01:55,360 --> 02:01:58,720 Speaker 2: VPN will show. But Elon must anticipated that, so he's 2276 02:01:58,720 --> 02:02:01,600 Speaker 2: got the little exclamation point feature that's going along with 2277 02:02:01,680 --> 02:02:03,680 Speaker 2: that exactly. 2278 02:02:03,760 --> 02:02:06,240 Speaker 10: So you know, for anyone that that's not familiar with 2279 02:02:06,280 --> 02:02:08,360 Speaker 10: how this works, you can look in an account and 2280 02:02:08,400 --> 02:02:11,400 Speaker 10: click on the date that it says they joined the platform. 2281 02:02:11,760 --> 02:02:15,200 Speaker 10: It's going to give you all the additional information, including 2282 02:02:15,400 --> 02:02:18,120 Speaker 10: the country they're based in. And to your point, Brian, 2283 02:02:18,600 --> 02:02:22,600 Speaker 10: you know, yes, anyone could VPN and say hi, I 2284 02:02:22,640 --> 02:02:26,760 Speaker 10: am an American, you know, but with that exclamation point, 2285 02:02:26,800 --> 02:02:27,240 Speaker 10: you know. 2286 02:02:27,200 --> 02:02:28,040 Speaker 2: They're on a VPN. 2287 02:02:28,160 --> 02:02:31,080 Speaker 10: You don't know where they're based, but you know if 2288 02:02:31,640 --> 02:02:36,000 Speaker 10: they're saying American patriot or my favorite of all these 2289 02:02:36,040 --> 02:02:40,760 Speaker 10: accounts is Republicans against Trump, you know, which is not 2290 02:02:41,240 --> 02:02:45,280 Speaker 10: Republicans against Trump because it's not American. Uh, you know, 2291 02:02:45,920 --> 02:02:47,960 Speaker 10: it's a great that you can see, Hey, I don't 2292 02:02:47,960 --> 02:02:49,880 Speaker 10: know where they are, but they're not here and that's 2293 02:02:50,000 --> 02:02:51,840 Speaker 10: enough information for us. 2294 02:02:52,160 --> 02:02:55,120 Speaker 2: Well, it provides you an opportunity to exercise some logic 2295 02:02:55,160 --> 02:02:58,360 Speaker 2: and reasons. I wonder why they're using a VPN, and 2296 02:02:58,480 --> 02:03:01,320 Speaker 2: the result is the obvious ques answer the questions because 2297 02:03:01,320 --> 02:03:03,760 Speaker 2: there's someplace else. It's just you know, just put two 2298 02:03:03,800 --> 02:03:06,560 Speaker 2: and two together. It's simply it may not necessarily be true, 2299 02:03:06,960 --> 02:03:09,839 Speaker 2: but more than likely in connection with these divisive posts 2300 02:03:09,880 --> 02:03:12,960 Speaker 2: related to American politics and other topics, it more than 2301 02:03:13,080 --> 02:03:16,240 Speaker 2: likely is a foreign actor. And I was surprised in 2302 02:03:16,280 --> 02:03:18,880 Speaker 2: the reporting on this that the China didn't come up 2303 02:03:18,920 --> 02:03:21,720 Speaker 2: more often, because I mean you had mentioned Bangladesh, Congo's 2304 02:03:21,760 --> 02:03:27,880 Speaker 2: even mentioned in India, Pakistan, but no specific mention of China, 2305 02:03:27,920 --> 02:03:30,600 Speaker 2: who I kind of figured would be the biggest foreign 2306 02:03:30,680 --> 02:03:33,920 Speaker 2: actor involved in this activity. It's it's a method of warfare. 2307 02:03:34,840 --> 02:03:39,400 Speaker 10: It is, you know. And for our Democrat friends, I'm 2308 02:03:39,400 --> 02:03:42,320 Speaker 10: sure you have some Democrat listeners. Yes, Russia wasn't in 2309 02:03:42,360 --> 02:03:48,360 Speaker 10: there either, so you know, we could talk all day 2310 02:03:48,400 --> 02:03:50,960 Speaker 10: about that, Brian. There's a lot going on. For one thing, 2311 02:03:52,600 --> 02:03:58,280 Speaker 10: China may not be as concerned about what happens on 2312 02:03:58,320 --> 02:04:03,240 Speaker 10: Twitter because they have much larger scale influence operations. For example, 2313 02:04:03,320 --> 02:04:09,520 Speaker 10: TikTok that is clearly a Chinese thiop right. In other cases, 2314 02:04:10,880 --> 02:04:15,160 Speaker 10: probably some of these people, if you're talking about the 2315 02:04:15,280 --> 02:04:19,800 Speaker 10: true you know, nation state security practice level, they might 2316 02:04:19,880 --> 02:04:24,520 Speaker 10: be hiding out in India. Because one of the very 2317 02:04:24,520 --> 02:04:26,800 Speaker 10: interesting things that we're going to be following up and 2318 02:04:26,840 --> 02:04:30,800 Speaker 10: researching on with this is typically when you're dealing with 2319 02:04:31,280 --> 02:04:36,920 Speaker 10: scammers and basically financial influencers, you know, people who are 2320 02:04:36,960 --> 02:04:40,040 Speaker 10: not spies but rather doing stuff for money, which is 2321 02:04:40,120 --> 02:04:43,520 Speaker 10: some of what's going on here. The English is bad, 2322 02:04:43,920 --> 02:04:48,520 Speaker 10: you know, they don't know how We get scam emails 2323 02:04:48,560 --> 02:04:52,160 Speaker 10: all the time that are poorly written in English, right, 2324 02:04:52,280 --> 02:04:55,680 Speaker 10: because it's not English as a first language. Speakers who 2325 02:04:55,720 --> 02:04:59,080 Speaker 10: are writing those these are all you know, the Texans 2326 02:04:59,080 --> 02:05:02,560 Speaker 10: sound like Texans, right. That is a level of sophistication 2327 02:05:02,880 --> 02:05:05,280 Speaker 10: that is not there for normal scammers. 2328 02:05:05,600 --> 02:05:08,320 Speaker 2: But it will be if it isn't here already calin 2329 02:05:08,360 --> 02:05:12,280 Speaker 2: though in a moment's time, it will be with artificial intelligence, right, 2330 02:05:12,360 --> 02:05:17,880 Speaker 2: I mean with a statement in proper English, you know, 2331 02:05:17,920 --> 02:05:20,160 Speaker 2: with a Texas flair. Even you can get AI to 2332 02:05:20,200 --> 02:05:22,240 Speaker 2: do stuff like that, it'll tailor a message for it, 2333 02:05:22,240 --> 02:05:24,960 Speaker 2: it'll actually be grammatically correct or maybe even come out 2334 02:05:25,160 --> 02:05:28,080 Speaker 2: in a very colloquial way that'll make it look convincing. 2335 02:05:28,960 --> 02:05:29,560 Speaker 10: Very true. 2336 02:05:30,240 --> 02:05:30,440 Speaker 1: You know. 2337 02:05:30,520 --> 02:05:33,000 Speaker 10: So when I look at things, when I look at 2338 02:05:33,040 --> 02:05:35,000 Speaker 10: these fake accounts, when I see him coming out of 2339 02:05:35,120 --> 02:05:39,400 Speaker 10: Europe like Romania, I'm thinking to myself, this is the 2340 02:05:39,440 --> 02:05:42,480 Speaker 10: EU trying to mess with us. Right when I see 2341 02:05:42,520 --> 02:05:47,320 Speaker 10: him coming out of India, I'm thinking, that's more people 2342 02:05:47,360 --> 02:05:50,560 Speaker 10: trying to make bucks because there's nothing there's no better 2343 02:05:50,560 --> 02:05:53,960 Speaker 10: way to make money on social media than divide people, 2344 02:05:54,600 --> 02:05:56,800 Speaker 10: enrage people. This is kind of the how it's third 2345 02:05:56,880 --> 02:06:01,880 Speaker 10: model of radio applied to applied to social media. But 2346 02:06:02,240 --> 02:06:05,200 Speaker 10: clearly there's much more than that going on. And I 2347 02:06:05,200 --> 02:06:07,280 Speaker 10: think we're going to see this unfold over time. 2348 02:06:07,360 --> 02:06:10,560 Speaker 2: No question. And further to my point on China, maybe 2349 02:06:10,560 --> 02:06:13,560 Speaker 2: it isn't so much that and I point well taken 2350 02:06:13,600 --> 02:06:16,880 Speaker 2: on them being you know, in other countries. Obviously they're 2351 02:06:16,920 --> 02:06:19,640 Speaker 2: expanding their global footprint China is so they could operate 2352 02:06:19,720 --> 02:06:23,760 Speaker 2: these bot farms elsewhere, but that they are perpetuating the 2353 02:06:24,160 --> 02:06:27,840 Speaker 2: we're all killing ourselves with the climate CO two eradication 2354 02:06:28,120 --> 02:06:31,280 Speaker 2: messaging that that is in their financial best interest. In 2355 02:06:31,360 --> 02:06:34,440 Speaker 2: other words, it's a glorified global marketing campaign to get 2356 02:06:34,520 --> 02:06:36,960 Speaker 2: us to be stupid and buy windmills and solar panels 2357 02:06:36,960 --> 02:06:39,600 Speaker 2: and cut our own throats in terms of energy generation column. 2358 02:06:41,040 --> 02:06:45,120 Speaker 10: Yeah, Brian, keep in mind, the Chinese mindset is they'll 2359 02:06:45,120 --> 02:06:47,120 Speaker 10: hang us and we'll sell them the rope. 2360 02:06:47,320 --> 02:06:49,720 Speaker 2: That's what they want. Yeah, they used to commit, They 2361 02:06:49,760 --> 02:06:53,080 Speaker 2: use to assassinate their political operatives and then build a 2362 02:06:53,120 --> 02:06:55,360 Speaker 2: family for the bullet. You may just remember those days 2363 02:06:55,360 --> 02:06:56,800 Speaker 2: back in the you know, shoot them in the back 2364 02:06:56,800 --> 02:06:58,720 Speaker 2: of the head and then charge the family for the bullet. 2365 02:06:59,040 --> 02:07:01,120 Speaker 2: That's China, and they're doing that to us each and 2366 02:07:01,200 --> 02:07:03,520 Speaker 2: every day. Colin maydein Tech editor with breit Bart B 2367 02:07:03,680 --> 02:07:06,000 Speaker 2: R E I T B A r T Breitbart dot Com. 2368 02:07:06,200 --> 02:07:10,440 Speaker 2: I was totally blown away and really disturbed by a 2369 02:07:10,440 --> 02:07:12,880 Speaker 2: Wall Street Journal article I read just from yesterday. Teens 2370 02:07:12,880 --> 02:07:16,280 Speaker 2: are saying tearful goodbyes to their AI companions. Some really 2371 02:07:16,480 --> 02:07:20,040 Speaker 2: unbelievable problems these young people are having getting involved with 2372 02:07:20,160 --> 02:07:23,480 Speaker 2: artificial intelligence. And they just have this perception that these 2373 02:07:23,600 --> 02:07:27,320 Speaker 2: fake characters that they create and interact with conversationally and 2374 02:07:27,360 --> 02:07:32,240 Speaker 2: literally spend hours and hours online with them, they perceive 2375 02:07:32,320 --> 02:07:34,440 Speaker 2: them to be almost real. So when you say sorry, 2376 02:07:34,760 --> 02:07:36,440 Speaker 2: young people are not going to let you have access 2377 02:07:36,480 --> 02:07:39,520 Speaker 2: to this anymore. They break down emotionally. Oh my god, 2378 02:07:39,560 --> 02:07:41,520 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna get They're not real people. I mean, 2379 02:07:41,520 --> 02:07:44,800 Speaker 2: where is that message getting out? Colin? Sadly, it appears 2380 02:07:44,800 --> 02:07:47,360 Speaker 2: that Meta also is painfully aware of this. But so 2381 02:07:47,520 --> 02:07:49,800 Speaker 2: rather than look further into the details of the harm 2382 02:07:49,920 --> 02:07:52,200 Speaker 2: social media does the people, they just shut down their 2383 02:07:52,240 --> 02:07:53,040 Speaker 2: research on it. 2384 02:07:54,560 --> 02:07:57,440 Speaker 10: Yeah, that's uh, you know, that's a fun story, Brian. 2385 02:07:57,520 --> 02:07:59,440 Speaker 10: I want to correct one thing he said. Oh, the 2386 02:07:59,480 --> 02:08:02,680 Speaker 10: young people don't think the ais are almost real. There's 2387 02:08:02,680 --> 02:08:09,480 Speaker 10: no almost don't believe they're real and generation right. What 2388 02:08:09,480 --> 02:08:12,600 Speaker 10: you're seeing here, Brian, is a perfect illustration of the 2389 02:08:12,640 --> 02:08:16,280 Speaker 10: economics concept of opportunity costs. Opportunity cost is if you're 2390 02:08:16,280 --> 02:08:18,640 Speaker 10: doing one thing, you can't do another. So our young 2391 02:08:18,720 --> 02:08:22,640 Speaker 10: people are falling in love with AI, you know, warning 2392 02:08:22,680 --> 02:08:23,640 Speaker 10: it when they lose it. 2393 02:08:24,040 --> 02:08:25,000 Speaker 1: What are they not doing. 2394 02:08:25,080 --> 02:08:29,960 Speaker 10: They're not meeting that real humans, They're not forming relationships 2395 02:08:30,000 --> 02:08:32,640 Speaker 10: that are going to make the next generation of Americans. 2396 02:08:32,640 --> 02:08:35,840 Speaker 10: We're going to have a population crisis light China if 2397 02:08:35,840 --> 02:08:39,240 Speaker 10: we don't have people fall in love and get married 2398 02:08:39,280 --> 02:08:43,280 Speaker 10: and so forth, right, and so you know, the meta 2399 02:08:43,440 --> 02:08:46,320 Speaker 10: story you just mentioned is very insidious because what's happening 2400 02:08:46,360 --> 02:08:51,240 Speaker 10: there is as they're internal researchers. So I'm actually starting 2401 02:08:51,280 --> 02:08:54,320 Speaker 10: to admire because they're very sharp and they're they're reaching 2402 02:08:54,360 --> 02:08:55,440 Speaker 10: the right conclusions. 2403 02:08:56,040 --> 02:08:57,240 Speaker 1: They just get turned off. 2404 02:08:57,360 --> 02:09:01,560 Speaker 10: So you know, we have these internal researchers talking to 2405 02:09:01,600 --> 02:09:04,720 Speaker 10: each other saying, gosh, this is a drug and we're 2406 02:09:04,760 --> 02:09:09,520 Speaker 10: pushers and they're realizing the ugly truth. Kind of like 2407 02:09:09,560 --> 02:09:11,800 Speaker 10: there's a meme of the Nazi saying, are we the 2408 02:09:11,840 --> 02:09:15,560 Speaker 10: bad guys? That's that's what's happening in Silicon Valley. But 2409 02:09:15,680 --> 02:09:18,880 Speaker 10: they just keep pushing forward and not slowing down. 2410 02:09:19,040 --> 02:09:20,120 Speaker 2: Well, here's someone's got. 2411 02:09:19,960 --> 02:09:20,560 Speaker 10: To slow them down. 2412 02:09:20,680 --> 02:09:24,120 Speaker 2: Illustrative quote exactly on that point, Doctor Ninavassan, director at 2413 02:09:24,120 --> 02:09:28,600 Speaker 2: Stanford's Medicine's Brainstorm Lab for Mental Health Innovation. Quote. The 2414 02:09:28,640 --> 02:09:32,720 Speaker 2: difficulty logging off meaning interaction with the AI chatbots. The 2415 02:09:32,720 --> 02:09:35,160 Speaker 2: difficulty in logging off doesn't mean something is wrong with 2416 02:09:35,240 --> 02:09:39,320 Speaker 2: the team. It means the tech worked exactly as designed. 2417 02:09:40,160 --> 02:09:43,760 Speaker 2: That is, I think that just like hammers. The point home, Yes, 2418 02:09:43,840 --> 02:09:46,879 Speaker 2: they want your children to spend all of their hours 2419 02:09:46,880 --> 02:09:49,160 Speaker 2: engaging with artificial intelligence. 2420 02:09:51,160 --> 02:09:55,360 Speaker 10: The strong comparison that I have yet to see break down. 2421 02:09:55,560 --> 02:09:57,919 Speaker 10: Brian is Big Tobacco. 2422 02:09:58,440 --> 02:10:01,640 Speaker 2: So I mentioned that earlier. You and I are right 2423 02:10:01,760 --> 02:10:03,600 Speaker 2: channel and then right. 2424 02:10:04,240 --> 02:10:06,640 Speaker 10: But you know here here's why I mentioned big Tobacco. 2425 02:10:06,880 --> 02:10:10,680 Speaker 10: What came out about Big Tobacco eventually was all of 2426 02:10:10,720 --> 02:10:14,120 Speaker 10: their advertising, from the Marlborough Man to Joe Campbell was 2427 02:10:14,160 --> 02:10:16,880 Speaker 10: aimed at fourteen year olds. Because if you start a 2428 02:10:17,120 --> 02:10:21,080 Speaker 10: fourteen year old smoking, they'll smoke for life. That's the 2429 02:10:21,080 --> 02:10:24,680 Speaker 10: big tech model. Big Tech desperately wants younger and younger 2430 02:10:24,720 --> 02:10:28,280 Speaker 10: people because if they get you, you're going to stick 2431 02:10:28,320 --> 02:10:32,520 Speaker 10: with them and you can't stop. And you know, we 2432 02:10:32,680 --> 02:10:36,080 Speaker 10: have to the legal system in a sense, and our 2433 02:10:36,160 --> 02:10:39,360 Speaker 10: politicians have to catch up with that cutting edge of 2434 02:10:39,360 --> 02:10:43,120 Speaker 10: what's happening in kids, because even millennials struggle with this 2435 02:10:43,360 --> 02:10:45,520 Speaker 10: because it didn't happen to them when they were ten. 2436 02:10:45,880 --> 02:10:49,920 Speaker 10: It happened to them when they were you know, teenagers 2437 02:10:50,040 --> 02:10:53,080 Speaker 10: reaching twenty years old. Suddenly they're on social media. They 2438 02:10:53,120 --> 02:10:55,840 Speaker 10: weren't ten year olds on social media talking to fake 2439 02:10:55,880 --> 02:10:57,520 Speaker 10: accounts from India exactly. 2440 02:10:57,880 --> 02:10:59,600 Speaker 2: And Colin the other point, mad about the Agger companies, 2441 02:10:59,600 --> 02:11:01,880 Speaker 2: they had their own internal research which confirmed that Yeah 2442 02:11:01,920 --> 02:11:04,839 Speaker 2: Tobacco is bad for you. But they hid that evidence, 2443 02:11:04,840 --> 02:11:06,640 Speaker 2: which sounds me along the lines of what Meta is 2444 02:11:06,680 --> 02:11:10,240 Speaker 2: doing so terrible stuff. It just keeps getting worse every day, 2445 02:11:10,240 --> 02:11:14,800 Speaker 2: I suppose. I mean that, is there a legislative solution? 2446 02:11:14,960 --> 02:11:16,840 Speaker 2: I mean I I was screaming early in the program 2447 02:11:16,840 --> 02:11:19,680 Speaker 2: about TikTok. I want this X feature on TikTok. Not 2448 02:11:19,720 --> 02:11:21,840 Speaker 2: that the Chinese is going to provide it, but is 2449 02:11:21,880 --> 02:11:25,440 Speaker 2: there some mechanism, some simple solution or even complex solution 2450 02:11:25,560 --> 02:11:29,560 Speaker 2: that helps save our young people from this disaster? Or 2451 02:11:29,560 --> 02:11:31,240 Speaker 2: do we just need to take our kids off the 2452 02:11:31,320 --> 02:11:32,960 Speaker 2: damn apps. 2453 02:11:33,920 --> 02:11:37,080 Speaker 10: I have several answers to that, and I'll keep them, 2454 02:11:37,360 --> 02:11:39,600 Speaker 10: keep them brief. You know, eventually we're going to need 2455 02:11:39,640 --> 02:11:40,960 Speaker 10: some legislative solutions. 2456 02:11:41,040 --> 02:11:41,240 Speaker 1: Right. 2457 02:11:41,920 --> 02:11:44,800 Speaker 10: What I firm believe in my heart is that when 2458 02:11:44,840 --> 02:11:47,720 Speaker 10: I watch I've been watching Kojak from the seventies, yea, 2459 02:11:48,880 --> 02:11:52,360 Speaker 10: and it's a little shocking because every scene, you know, 2460 02:11:52,760 --> 02:11:57,320 Speaker 10: Telly Savalas and others are smoking everywhere in hospitals, police stations. 2461 02:11:57,800 --> 02:12:00,920 Speaker 10: We look at that, you know, I'm sick. I look 2462 02:12:00,960 --> 02:12:04,320 Speaker 10: at that, and I'm a little shocked. Right, I believe 2463 02:12:04,480 --> 02:12:06,800 Speaker 10: in twenty or thirty years, people are going to watch 2464 02:12:06,840 --> 02:12:09,920 Speaker 10: our TV and movies of teenagers staring at phones, and 2465 02:12:09,920 --> 02:12:12,640 Speaker 10: they're going to be shocked. How on earth did these 2466 02:12:12,720 --> 02:12:16,800 Speaker 10: people let these kids ruin their lives with AI convenions 2467 02:12:16,800 --> 02:12:17,280 Speaker 10: of phones? 2468 02:12:17,400 --> 02:12:17,560 Speaker 1: Right? 2469 02:12:17,800 --> 02:12:20,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, as we as we crawl from the wreckage of 2470 02:12:20,960 --> 02:12:23,800 Speaker 2: allowing them to do that for so many years. So yeah, 2471 02:12:23,840 --> 02:12:25,520 Speaker 2: it's like looking back at the Great Depression. 2472 02:12:26,240 --> 02:12:26,560 Speaker 1: Wow. 2473 02:12:26,760 --> 02:12:29,880 Speaker 10: Oh right, So how do we get there?

AI can make that a thousand 2484 02:13:06,640 --> 02:13:11,200 Speaker 10: times worse in about a week.

Now you might get 2511 02:14:13,640 --> 02:14:16,400 Speaker 2: attacked for your opinions, but that's okay. I can take that, 2512 02:14:17,040 --> 02:14:20,960 Speaker 2: all right. Dealer's choice, actually, retired lieutenant colonel's choice. Do 2513 02:14:20,960 --> 02:14:24,800 Speaker 2: you want to start with the breakdown in the various 2514 02:14:26,000 --> 02:14:29,520 Speaker 2: Ukraine Russian I don't know what. Do you want to 2515 02:14:29,520 --> 02:14:32,080 Speaker 2: call them multi point proposals? We've got a nineteen point, 2516 02:14:32,080 --> 02:14:34,440 Speaker 2: we got a twenty eight point or something, so far 2517 02:14:34,520 --> 02:14:36,480 Speaker 2: we have no agreement, or alternatively, do you want to 2518 02:14:36,480 --> 02:14:41,440 Speaker 2: start with the varied responses to the Hamas and Hisbala 2519 02:14:42,240 --> 02:14:43,600 Speaker 2: situation with Israel? 2520 02:14:43,720 --> 02:14:43,920 Speaker 1: Sir? 2521 02:14:44,760 --> 02:14:45,600 Speaker 2: Pick your favorite. 2522 02:14:45,800 --> 02:14:49,080 Speaker 11: Yeah, so let's go with the Russia situation, since that's 2523 02:14:49,120 --> 02:14:50,680 Speaker 11: the weirdest one, I guess. 2524 02:14:50,600 --> 02:14:54,520 Speaker 2: All right, Yeah, lately, the Kremlin reject Europe's counterproposal. We 2525 02:14:54,600 --> 02:14:57,720 Speaker 2: had this twenty eight point document the Trump administration unveiled 2526 02:14:57,760 --> 02:15:01,040 Speaker 2: last week, which many were saying, you know, was was 2527 02:15:01,080 --> 02:15:04,440 Speaker 2: a gift to Russia, and then the counterproposal from the 2528 02:15:04,440 --> 02:15:06,640 Speaker 2: Europe I think it was like a nineteen point plan, 2529 02:15:06,880 --> 02:15:10,920 Speaker 2: which Kremlin just rejected that. So it would start where 2530 02:15:10,920 --> 02:15:13,040 Speaker 2: we usually end serve, but it doesn't sound like we've 2531 02:15:13,080 --> 02:15:16,640 Speaker 2: gotten anywhere. What's your take on all this, Daniel, Davis. 2532 02:15:17,080 --> 02:15:21,440 Speaker 11: Yeah, you know, it's just more of the bizarre, uh, 2533 02:15:21,880 --> 02:15:26,120 Speaker 11: just confused and just dysfunctional. I mean, there's no better 2534 02:15:26,200 --> 02:15:27,880 Speaker 11: way to put it, more accurate way to put it. 2535 02:15:28,120 --> 02:15:30,080 Speaker 2: This whole situation, because. 2536 02:15:30,120 --> 02:15:34,120 Speaker 11: When the first information was leaked out, if there was 2537 02:15:34,160 --> 02:15:38,120 Speaker 11: a twenty eight point proposal, it was apparently between Steve 2538 02:15:38,160 --> 02:15:42,200 Speaker 11: Witkoff and a guy named Kriill Dimitriov on the Russian side, 2539 02:15:42,320 --> 02:15:45,080 Speaker 11: and the Russian side said, well, from after it was leaked, well, 2540 02:15:45,440 --> 02:15:47,800 Speaker 11: you know, it doesn't address a lot of our issues, 2541 02:15:47,800 --> 02:15:49,960 Speaker 11: but it does address some issues, so it's a good 2542 02:15:50,000 --> 02:15:52,040 Speaker 11: start point. That's something that we can work with here, 2543 02:15:52,040 --> 02:15:54,560 Speaker 11: et cetera. But the minute that this thing hit the 2544 02:15:54,600 --> 02:15:57,720 Speaker 11: airwaves and people in the West started realizing and Kiev 2545 02:15:57,760 --> 02:16:00,480 Speaker 11: started realizing that there was something that discuss going on 2546 02:16:00,520 --> 02:16:03,680 Speaker 11: between the US and Russia, people just went crazy. And 2547 02:16:04,040 --> 02:16:06,520 Speaker 11: first of all, over the weekend there was a lot 2548 02:16:06,560 --> 02:16:10,280 Speaker 11: of information out among a lot of the elites in 2549 02:16:10,280 --> 02:16:13,480 Speaker 11: the West that this was actually a Russian proposal that 2550 02:16:13,520 --> 02:16:16,800 Speaker 11: they just foist it onto the Trump administration, and this 2551 02:16:17,000 --> 02:16:19,520 Speaker 11: was you know, obviously then you have to reject it 2552 02:16:19,560 --> 02:16:20,840 Speaker 11: because it's just their plan. 2553 02:16:21,120 --> 02:16:23,320 Speaker 1: Well, if you had paid any attention at all to 2554 02:16:23,360 --> 02:16:25,440 Speaker 1: the plan. There was a number of points. 2555 02:16:25,240 --> 02:16:28,040 Speaker 11: And I did six on my show that the Russians 2556 02:16:28,040 --> 02:16:31,360 Speaker 11: would categorically rejoice, they reject, they would never accept that. 2557 02:16:31,520 --> 02:16:33,440 Speaker 11: So the idea that it was a Russian plan was 2558 02:16:33,480 --> 02:16:36,920 Speaker 11: absurd at face value if you paid attention to face value. 2559 02:16:37,080 --> 02:16:40,240 Speaker 11: What I think was going on Brian is that Europe 2560 02:16:40,520 --> 02:16:43,240 Speaker 11: is absolutely terrified of this war ending. I know that 2561 02:16:43,360 --> 02:16:47,680 Speaker 11: sounds strange, but they just cannot acknowledge that they have 2562 02:16:47,879 --> 02:16:50,240 Speaker 11: lost the war, That NATO has lost the war, the 2563 02:16:50,240 --> 02:16:53,760 Speaker 11: European Union and all their economic accepts have lost this war. 2564 02:16:54,040 --> 02:16:56,600 Speaker 11: But that is the case, and so they want to 2565 02:16:56,640 --> 02:16:59,920 Speaker 11: continue the fiction longer. And they're okay with you talk 2566 02:17:00,080 --> 02:17:01,800 Speaker 11: about people dying a gift. 2567 02:17:02,200 --> 02:17:03,199 Speaker 2: This is real life. 2568 02:17:03,480 --> 02:17:06,480 Speaker 11: People will continue to die on the Ukraine's side because 2569 02:17:06,600 --> 02:17:10,240 Speaker 11: of the unwillingness and the inability on the Western side 2570 02:17:10,240 --> 02:17:12,720 Speaker 11: to acknowledge this war must come to an end. And 2571 02:17:12,840 --> 02:17:15,000 Speaker 11: you know, I have some issues with President Trump on 2572 02:17:15,120 --> 02:17:17,400 Speaker 11: several issues here, but this is one I'm in lockstep 2573 02:17:17,440 --> 02:17:19,920 Speaker 11: with him. I am one hundred percent behind his effort 2574 02:17:19,920 --> 02:17:23,840 Speaker 11: to get this over with by the least objectionable path possible. 2575 02:17:24,200 --> 02:17:27,760 Speaker 11: And it's important to understand there is no good path, 2576 02:17:28,080 --> 02:17:29,800 Speaker 11: there's only the least offensive. 2577 02:17:30,080 --> 02:17:32,520 Speaker 2: Well, let me just I guess I'm kind of curious 2578 02:17:32,520 --> 02:17:36,760 Speaker 2: about European Union's position given what you said, law we 2579 02:17:36,800 --> 02:17:39,480 Speaker 2: had to pull out of Vietnam not exactly a shining 2580 02:17:39,480 --> 02:17:41,200 Speaker 2: moment for the United States. Of course, you know, the 2581 02:17:41,240 --> 02:17:44,280 Speaker 2: Afghanistan withdrawal wasn't exactly a shining moment for the United States. 2582 02:17:44,400 --> 02:17:46,120 Speaker 2: You know, it didn't look good and we had to 2583 02:17:46,160 --> 02:17:48,280 Speaker 2: take our alums. We can't declare a win in the 2584 02:17:48,280 --> 02:17:52,320 Speaker 2: win column, but the futility of continuing in the face 2585 02:17:52,360 --> 02:17:54,920 Speaker 2: of you know, public opposition or whatever the case may be, 2586 02:17:55,160 --> 02:17:57,160 Speaker 2: we move on with our lives. Is this analogous to 2587 02:17:57,200 --> 02:17:59,400 Speaker 2: that at all? Are they just unwilling to admit defeat, 2588 02:17:59,520 --> 02:18:02,720 Speaker 2: or is this much greater in terms of their economic 2589 02:18:02,760 --> 02:18:05,680 Speaker 2: connection with Ukraine that really matters to them, even though 2590 02:18:06,000 --> 02:18:07,280 Speaker 2: they can't really do much about it. 2591 02:18:07,320 --> 02:18:10,760 Speaker 11: Apparently, Well, it's a combination of both those in the 2592 02:18:10,800 --> 02:18:15,119 Speaker 11: worst way on each side. There was actually, interestingly also 2593 02:18:15,200 --> 02:18:18,560 Speaker 11: over last weekend in the Ukraine media, there was a 2594 02:18:18,560 --> 02:18:23,880 Speaker 11: lot of ankst that many of the leaders were oblivious 2595 02:18:24,160 --> 02:18:27,560 Speaker 11: are actually in Ukraine against Europe, saying you know, you 2596 02:18:27,600 --> 02:18:30,920 Speaker 11: guys keep talking this big game about wanting to defeat Russia, etc. 2597 02:18:31,360 --> 02:18:34,240 Speaker 11: But you have given this is a fact, more money 2598 02:18:34,800 --> 02:18:37,840 Speaker 11: to Russia since this war has started. 2599 02:18:37,480 --> 02:18:39,920 Speaker 1: To the Ukraine by continuing. 2600 02:18:39,400 --> 02:18:42,160 Speaker 11: To purchase their oil and in some cases, like with France, 2601 02:18:42,560 --> 02:18:45,240 Speaker 11: even greater levels in this year than the previous two. 2602 02:18:45,600 --> 02:18:48,240 Speaker 11: So the Ukraine side of saying, y'all are just playing 2603 02:18:48,280 --> 02:18:50,160 Speaker 11: both sides against the middle. You want cash if you 2604 02:18:50,200 --> 02:18:52,120 Speaker 11: want the war to keep going on at our expense, 2605 02:18:52,360 --> 02:18:53,400 Speaker 11: and that's the bottom line. 2606 02:18:53,400 --> 02:18:56,000 Speaker 2: I think you know. I laughed. I literally, I don't 2607 02:18:56,000 --> 02:18:58,280 Speaker 2: know if you heard me laughing. That's like the definition 2608 02:18:58,360 --> 02:19:00,680 Speaker 2: of batcrap in scene, if I may use the term, sir. 2609 02:19:01,440 --> 02:19:04,640 Speaker 2: The European Union has embraced the zero carbon emissions crapp 2610 02:19:04,720 --> 02:19:06,959 Speaker 2: or so long they have destroyed their own economies, and 2611 02:19:06,959 --> 02:19:10,480 Speaker 2: here they are buying Russian oil to keep the power 2612 02:19:10,560 --> 02:19:14,279 Speaker 2: on because windmills don't cut it well, arguing that Russian 2613 02:19:14,280 --> 02:19:16,800 Speaker 2: needs to be defeated in the war. I can't make 2614 02:19:16,840 --> 02:19:18,280 Speaker 2: any sense out of this other than it say. It 2615 02:19:18,360 --> 02:19:21,760 Speaker 2: sounds like something out of some deranged science fiction maybe 2616 02:19:21,800 --> 02:19:23,960 Speaker 2: Salvado or DOLLI like parallel Universe. 2617 02:19:24,640 --> 02:19:28,480 Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, that's that's probably the least defensive you can 2618 02:19:28,560 --> 02:19:31,920 Speaker 11: say about the European side, because it is totally divorced 2619 02:19:32,200 --> 02:19:36,280 Speaker 11: from military reality. This war is over at the conclusion 2620 02:19:36,360 --> 02:19:38,480 Speaker 11: is already known. It can't end any other way than 2621 02:19:38,520 --> 02:19:42,039 Speaker 11: a Russian victory, and European and the Ukraine side and 2622 02:19:42,040 --> 02:19:45,160 Speaker 11: they're just their Ukraine leadership is embedded with this. On 2623 02:19:45,240 --> 02:19:47,000 Speaker 11: top of of course, that's the other thing that the 2624 02:19:47,320 --> 02:19:50,000 Speaker 11: Ukrainian people were upset about is all the corruption that's 2625 02:19:50,040 --> 02:19:53,480 Speaker 11: now being exposed at the highest levels. So literally it's 2626 02:19:53,480 --> 02:19:56,360 Speaker 11: about money at the Ukraine leadership level, and at the 2627 02:19:56,400 --> 02:20:00,000 Speaker 11: European leadership level, it's all about cash, and they always 2628 02:20:00,120 --> 02:20:01,920 Speaker 11: talk about how much more money they're going to spend 2629 02:20:01,959 --> 02:20:05,199 Speaker 11: on defense, while zero willingness at all. 2630 02:20:05,080 --> 02:20:06,280 Speaker 1: To engage in diplomacy. 2631 02:20:06,400 --> 02:20:09,680 Speaker 11: That is the state of Western leadership in twenty twenty five. 2632 02:20:09,879 --> 02:20:12,600 Speaker 2: It's a terrible thing to behold, it really is. And meanwhile, 2633 02:20:13,080 --> 02:20:16,440 Speaker 2: young people and older people are being slaughtered on the battlefield, 2634 02:20:16,720 --> 02:20:19,560 Speaker 2: and just while all this incompetence swirls around, I just 2635 02:20:19,879 --> 02:20:22,480 Speaker 2: it just breaks my heart. Daniel Davis deep diyes where 2636 02:20:22,480 --> 02:20:24,760 Speaker 2: you get the podcast, find it and regularly listen to it. 2637 02:20:24,800 --> 02:20:27,680 Speaker 2: I do and then the other pivot over to the 2638 02:20:27,720 --> 02:20:31,920 Speaker 2: Trump administration seems to be displeased with Israel's response to 2639 02:20:31,959 --> 02:20:35,040 Speaker 2: an en minor incursion in Gaza, and yet seems to 2640 02:20:35,080 --> 02:20:38,040 Speaker 2: be okay with Israel's response that has Balla over in Lebanon. 2641 02:20:38,920 --> 02:20:42,160 Speaker 2: What's the difference, Daniel Davis. 2642 02:20:42,240 --> 02:20:43,320 Speaker 8: Yeah, you know this. 2643 02:20:44,400 --> 02:20:48,000 Speaker 11: I was telling a colleague just last week that we 2644 02:20:48,560 --> 02:20:51,520 Speaker 11: claimed that piece has come to the Middle East. But 2645 02:20:51,959 --> 02:20:54,560 Speaker 11: when you look at the amount of attacks in the 2646 02:20:54,600 --> 02:20:58,039 Speaker 11: Gaza Strip and especially the West Bank since this you know, 2647 02:20:58,160 --> 02:21:00,680 Speaker 11: sea spar so called, was brought into effect, you would 2648 02:21:00,760 --> 02:21:03,120 Speaker 11: never know the Sea spark because they continued to be 2649 02:21:03,280 --> 02:21:06,960 Speaker 11: lots of attacks and then sometimes the homicide fires back, 2650 02:21:06,959 --> 02:21:09,200 Speaker 11: and then of course they get this huge response back 2651 02:21:09,200 --> 02:21:12,320 Speaker 11: from the Israeli side. In my estimation, if I was 2652 02:21:12,360 --> 02:21:14,080 Speaker 11: just looking at the ground, I would never have even 2653 02:21:14,120 --> 02:21:17,279 Speaker 11: known there was an alleged ceasefire. But the fighting continues 2654 02:21:17,320 --> 02:21:19,840 Speaker 11: going on. And then now then you add this issue 2655 02:21:19,840 --> 02:21:23,400 Speaker 11: back in Hezbela and in Beirut, et cetera, and that 2656 02:21:23,879 --> 02:21:28,160 Speaker 11: was also supposed to have been in a semi ceasefire situation, 2657 02:21:28,600 --> 02:21:31,840 Speaker 11: but then Israel just launched into this assassination. You know, 2658 02:21:31,879 --> 02:21:34,560 Speaker 11: decapitation struck, and they continued hit in the southern part. 2659 02:21:34,840 --> 02:21:36,840 Speaker 11: So it just looks to me like Israel still at 2660 02:21:36,840 --> 02:21:38,920 Speaker 11: war and I don't know where they're going. I don't 2661 02:21:38,920 --> 02:21:41,440 Speaker 11: know what the ejective verse because I don't see a 2662 02:21:41,480 --> 02:21:45,680 Speaker 11: militarily obtainable ebjective. I just see lots of shots and firing, 2663 02:21:46,080 --> 02:21:48,119 Speaker 11: and it just keeps the situation rolled up. 2664 02:21:48,720 --> 02:21:52,680 Speaker 2: Maybe just engage in population control, sir. Sorry, I had 2665 02:21:52,720 --> 02:21:53,959 Speaker 2: to say that. 2666 02:21:53,560 --> 02:21:57,200 Speaker 11: I hope that's not the case, but it's an ugly 2667 02:21:57,280 --> 02:22:00,440 Speaker 11: situation with no apparent resolution that I can see it 2668 02:22:00,440 --> 02:22:01,120 Speaker 11: anytime soon. 2669 02:22:01,400 --> 02:22:04,879 Speaker 2: Someday, sir, someday you and I will have a positive conversation. 2670 02:22:04,920 --> 02:22:07,280 Speaker 2: I know it typiclarly in dark conversations of late on 2671 02:22:07,360 --> 02:22:07,680 Speaker 2: that day. 2672 02:22:08,000 --> 02:22:10,720 Speaker 10: I thought, this week before Thanksgiving, I thought we'd be able. 2673 02:22:10,560 --> 02:22:15,080 Speaker 2: To have Hello Daniel Davis deep dive every Tuesday here 2674 02:22:15,080 --> 02:22:16,840 Speaker 2: in the fifty five Case Morning Show at eight thirty 2675 02:22:16,879 --> 02:22:19,080 Speaker 2: normally unless we have a technical difficulty where no one dies, 2676 02:22:19,080 --> 02:22:20,959 Speaker 2: which is good, but you can find him wherever you 2677 02:22:20,959 --> 02:22:23,120 Speaker 2: get your podcasts regularly.

Some of your listeners like it, 2720 02:24:23,800 --> 02:24:26,560 Speaker 8: but I also hope they like it. When he finished 2721 02:24:26,640 --> 02:24:30,240 Speaker 8: up his agorithm about the Bibles. You know, the Bible 2722 02:24:30,320 --> 02:24:34,520 Speaker 8: is black history from the region it was creating. Now, 2723 02:24:34,520 --> 02:24:37,400 Speaker 8: well it's true or not, that's a different story, and 2724 02:24:37,440 --> 02:24:41,240 Speaker 8: that's not my point in this conversation. But from the 2725 02:24:41,320 --> 02:24:44,920 Speaker 8: region that came from those with black, dark skinned peoples 2726 02:24:44,959 --> 02:24:45,360 Speaker 8: over there. 2727 02:24:45,440 --> 02:24:48,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, you get no argument from me on that, James. 2728 02:24:48,560 --> 02:24:51,039 Speaker 2: I've agreed with you on that point. You know, just 2729 02:24:51,120 --> 02:24:53,840 Speaker 2: considering the region and that time of the era of 2730 02:24:53,879 --> 02:24:56,360 Speaker 2: the world, there is no doubt in my mind, and 2731 02:24:56,400 --> 02:24:59,120 Speaker 2: I even acknowledge that, you know, the white Jesus depiction 2732 02:24:59,280 --> 02:25:02,800 Speaker 2: was was an opportunity to convince Northern Europeans, where there 2733 02:25:02,840 --> 02:25:05,160 Speaker 2: were no people of color during that period of time, 2734 02:25:05,160 --> 02:25:07,360 Speaker 2: that they should be following the religion. I mean that 2735 02:25:07,640 --> 02:25:10,600 Speaker 2: that's marketing in a sense, James. So I'm agreeing with 2736 02:25:10,640 --> 02:25:12,720 Speaker 2: you on that. 2737 02:25:12,720 --> 02:25:13,080 Speaker 5: That's good. 2738 02:25:13,240 --> 02:25:16,279 Speaker 8: You mean, but we need this to a larger arena 2739 02:25:16,760 --> 02:25:19,680 Speaker 8: and maybe Eon Musk could get it out there and 2740 02:25:19,800 --> 02:25:22,920 Speaker 8: people will see it's a whole lot of manipulation have 2741 02:25:23,040 --> 02:25:30,040 Speaker 8: gone on, have destroyed region, colonized people, people, enflaying people's 2742 02:25:30,160 --> 02:25:31,199 Speaker 8: all of this stuff. 2743 02:25:32,320 --> 02:25:34,920 Speaker 2: Well, it's not just Christianity that can be blamed for that. 2744 02:25:34,959 --> 02:25:37,680 Speaker 2: Anytime there is something that people believe in, I don't 2745 02:25:37,720 --> 02:25:40,560 Speaker 2: care what it happens to be your country, your culture, 2746 02:25:40,640 --> 02:25:43,400 Speaker 2: your religion. It's a divisive reality. And unless you're sitting 2747 02:25:43,440 --> 02:25:45,400 Speaker 2: across from that group and can say, all right, I 2748 02:25:45,440 --> 02:25:47,160 Speaker 2: don't believe in what you believe, but I can live 2749 02:25:47,200 --> 02:25:49,200 Speaker 2: and play nicely with you in this world we have. 2750 02:25:49,680 --> 02:25:51,720 Speaker 2: That's one thing. But when it becomes a source of 2751 02:25:51,800 --> 02:25:55,600 Speaker 2: conflict and anger and division and often war and murder, 2752 02:25:55,680 --> 02:25:57,840 Speaker 2: and then that's a horse of a different color. 2753 02:25:59,120 --> 02:26:01,519 Speaker 8: No, wait a minute, did I say anything about Christianity? 2754 02:26:01,640 --> 02:26:01,840 Speaker 9: Oh? 2755 02:26:01,959 --> 02:26:05,800 Speaker 2: Noll You mentioned the Bible, didn't you. Yeah, okay, well 2756 02:26:05,800 --> 02:26:06,959 Speaker 2: that would be Christianity. 2757 02:26:07,080 --> 02:26:08,680 Speaker 8: There's an eat the Opium Bible. 2758 02:26:08,760 --> 02:26:10,840 Speaker 1: You know, there was King Jane. 2759 02:26:10,879 --> 02:26:14,560 Speaker 8: That's probably the fifth translation of fifth transliteration. 2760 02:26:14,760 --> 02:26:19,480 Speaker 2: Oh how many iterations are there's like fifty thirty of them? 2761 02:26:19,520 --> 02:26:19,680 Speaker 1: Now? 2762 02:26:19,760 --> 02:26:20,880 Speaker 2: Yeah? 2763 02:26:21,080 --> 02:26:23,560 Speaker 8: Right, So I wasn't speaking of Christianity. You know, there's 2764 02:26:23,560 --> 02:26:26,440 Speaker 8: an eat the Opening Bible. That wasn't about Christianity. That 2765 02:26:26,600 --> 02:26:27,879 Speaker 8: was about spirituality. 2766 02:26:27,959 --> 02:26:29,880 Speaker 2: All right. I just figured, since you conceded that we 2767 02:26:29,879 --> 02:26:31,920 Speaker 2: were talking about Jesus and his depiction, that we were 2768 02:26:31,920 --> 02:26:34,959 Speaker 2: talking about Christianity generally. But no, you're talking about anything 2769 02:26:35,040 --> 02:26:35,800 Speaker 2: Bible wise. 2770 02:26:36,800 --> 02:26:39,920 Speaker 8: Right, anything in the beginning of what we can fuss. 2771 02:26:40,000 --> 02:26:43,000 Speaker 8: We can go back and it's just accepted belief. It's 2772 02:26:43,000 --> 02:26:47,160 Speaker 8: a theory, it's indoctrination, all that stuff. And the best 2773 02:26:47,200 --> 02:26:50,160 Speaker 8: I can do is narrow down the two or three theories. 2774 02:26:50,760 --> 02:26:54,199 Speaker 8: Now after that, I'm gonnafend some people with my theory. 2775 02:26:54,360 --> 02:26:57,520 Speaker 8: Some people gonna agree with my theory. So this reason, 2776 02:26:57,560 --> 02:27:01,439 Speaker 8: I'd say, hey, if we just don't go to crucify 2777 02:27:01,640 --> 02:27:05,280 Speaker 8: person just because your belief is different there that your 2778 02:27:05,320 --> 02:27:08,600 Speaker 8: indocted nation is different to them, because none of us 2779 02:27:08,680 --> 02:27:12,320 Speaker 8: really know. You know, this world been around here where 2780 02:27:12,400 --> 02:27:15,120 Speaker 8: you look at the world and the earth and whatnot 2781 02:27:15,560 --> 02:27:17,160 Speaker 8: for millions of years. 2782 02:27:17,480 --> 02:27:18,320 Speaker 2: Yes, sir, there is no. 2783 02:27:19,879 --> 02:27:24,040 Speaker 8: Way we can call ourselves intelligent beings instead of fresh 2784 02:27:24,120 --> 02:27:28,120 Speaker 8: peoples because they just got a different opinion of you. 2785 02:27:28,120 --> 02:27:31,959 Speaker 2: You're exactly You're articulating thoughts exactly along the lines of 2786 02:27:32,000 --> 02:27:35,199 Speaker 2: why I consider myself to be a libertarian, little libertarian. 2787 02:27:35,240 --> 02:27:37,879 Speaker 2: I trust you with your life decisions, James.

That's what I'm 2792 02:27:48,440 --> 02:27:51,480 Speaker 2: all about. That's what I preach every day. Man, I'm 2793 02:27:51,520 --> 02:27:54,360 Speaker 2: with you.

It just made me think the oldest profession. 2796 02:28:01,480 --> 02:28:04,560 Speaker 2: We all know what that is. Maybe marketing is the 2797 02:28:04,600 --> 02:28:07,600 Speaker 2: oldest profession. Maybe we should look at it along those lines, 2798 02:28:07,600 --> 02:28:10,000 Speaker 2: because there's a lot of marketing going on there and 2799 02:28:10,000 --> 02:28:13,480 Speaker 2: it goes back a long long time.
