And then a quick update on 105 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 5: the book campaign. I have mine now, Ray fat alerriers, 106 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 5: if I must die, you have until Saturday to buy 107 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 5: this and have it still count toward the New York 108 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 5: Times bestseller list. I have been told by a source 109 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,119 Speaker 5: in the publishing industry that there is a quote high 110 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 5: probability that it actually will make the list. 111 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: How many copies did they sell already? 112 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 5: Well, so they printed seventy five hundred. They completely sold 113 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 5: those out within hours. 114 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 1: So in normal times, that's enough to hit the list. 115 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 5: In normal time, that's enough. Now it's December, so it's 116 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 5: holiday season. Everybody's buying a lot of books. So we're 117 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 5: guessing fifteen k is definitely on there. And I think 118 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,239 Speaker 5: we're at twelve or thirteen already. Okay, and Today's Thursday 119 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 5: can get hit top ten. 120 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: There's no way you don't. I think. I think that's 121 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: a lot of books. Just throw everybody understand. 122 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:13,799 Speaker 4: That if what is the appone to go get another. 123 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,799 Speaker 1: Sell like fifty copy, five copies exactly. Yeah. The publishing 124 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: industry is kind of like the folks. It's very interesting. 125 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 3: If you can sell five thousand copies, that's like. 126 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: You've made it. Yeah. 127 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 3: Major publishers are like sweet, Yeah, like this is a 128 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 3: we've recouped our investment. 129 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the book business is a real racket. But 130 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: maybe I'll do a monologue on that at some point. 131 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: So there you go. 132 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 3: You've only have a couple more days to have a 133 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 3: link down in the description. With all of that, let's 134 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 3: get to these new Jersey drones folks. First, let's start 135 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 3: with the video show. We put it up there on 136 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 3: the screen. We confirm some of the video that we 137 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 3: are about to show you, So let's go ahead and 138 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 3: play it as I talk over it. Where you're seeing 139 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 3: there is a Bergen County, New Jersey. So yeah, you 140 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 3: can just see linking lights that are in the sky. 141 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 3: At least some of these drones were originally thought to 142 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 3: be unidentified. However, at least one or two of them 143 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 3: were known and I later identified as a small passenger aircraft. 144 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 3: But many of these images that have been coming out 145 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 3: have now been observed again all over the state, multiple 146 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,239 Speaker 3: different counties in the state of New Jersey. 147 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: Bedminster, New Jersey. 148 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 3: Obviously that's a bit concerning because that's where President elect 149 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 3: Donald Trump's New Jersey golf courses as well. But in reality, 150 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 3: you're also seeing these drones which appear to have lights 151 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 3: and to be flying in groups as well, not only there, 152 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 3: but over. 153 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: Multiple US military installations. 154 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,479 Speaker 3: And I will get to the confirming of that in 155 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 3: a little bit now, as I just set this up. 156 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 3: As we said, there's been multiple days now investigation into 157 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 3: these drones. Some you know, we knew were small passenger aircraft, 158 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 3: but there's just literally not enough small passenger aircraft, especially 159 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 3: at night, that are usually registered and confirmed in others 160 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 3: to know that this is explicitly not what they are, 161 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 3: so they are something, right. We know that they're not, 162 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 3: at least according to United as Military, they're not US 163 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 3: military assets. We believe at some point now that they 164 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 3: are not. They're not foreign assets, as was speculating. We'll 165 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 3: get that they were saying, oh it's a ron, yes, 166 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 3: But what we do know are some shotgun comments here 167 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 3: from the state of New Jersey's Governor Phil Murphy, who 168 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 3: actually deployed state assets to try and intercept some of 169 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 3: these drones. And here's what he had to say. The 170 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 3: minute we get eyes on these drones, they go dark. 171 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: Let's take a listen. 172 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 6: I don't blame people for being frustrated. Let me say 173 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 6: most importantly right up front, we see no evidence. And 174 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 6: I say this includes Homeland Security, FBI, Secret Service, our 175 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 6: state police authorities, at all levels of government. The most 176 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 6: important point to say is we don't see any concern 177 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 6: for public safety. That's number one. 178 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: Number two. 179 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 6: Having said that, it's really frustrating that we don't have 180 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 6: more answers as to where they are coming from and 181 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 6: why they're doing what they're doing. We had last night 182 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 6: forty nine sightings. I think twenty of them were over 183 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 6: one hundred. Now those include I think I saw one 184 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 6: mistaken a fixed wing air craft, a plane, a small 185 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 6: piper cub for instance, for a drone, or you saw 186 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 6: one and that counts, and then I saw the same 187 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 6: one and that counts. So we think these are overstated, 188 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 6: but it's a non zero number. I was on with 189 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 6: the White House and Homeland Security leadership literally at the 190 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 6: very top yesterday pretty much all day. I'm hoping we'll 191 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 6: get answers sooner than later. I would just ask folks 192 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 6: to continue to let the FBI or their local law 193 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 6: enforcement know when they see something, and we'll continue to 194 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 6: do everything we can with our federal partners to get 195 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 6: clearer answers. 196 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 3: Why is it hard to get answers? 197 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 6: These are apparently very as I understand it, very sophisticated. 198 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 6: The minute you get eyes on them, they go dark. 199 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 6: And you know, we're obviously most concerned about sensitive targets 200 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 6: and sensitive critical infrastructure. We've got military assets, we've got 201 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 6: utility assets, we've got the President and Alex one of 202 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 6: his homes here. This is something we're taking deadly seriously. 203 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 6: We've gotten good cooperation out of the FEDS. But we 204 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 6: need more and that's that was my plate. How much 205 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 6: lower as I don't know, but if we have news, 206 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 6: I'll come. I'll let you know. The minute we know something. 207 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 6: I'm not going to hide it under a bushel because you. 208 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 7: Governor you have I'm gonna have people saying, you know, 209 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,079 Speaker 7: I saw a drone and or I was spraying something, 210 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 7: or I saw a drone crash in my yard and 211 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 7: set it off in alarm when I tried to go 212 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 7: near it. 213 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: There's a lot of fear. Yeah, New Jersey residents on you. 214 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:34,079 Speaker 1: What is your message? 215 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 6: Well, the message I just gave. But by the way, 216 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,959 Speaker 6: we're not aware of any nefarious drone that has crashed, 217 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 6: or if there is one that's crashed, could someone please 218 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 6: call me and let me know where that is. There 219 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 6: are a couple of rumored downings for one reason or another. 220 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 6: One of them was a toy, the other one was 221 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 6: never found. But having something, having our hands on equipment 222 00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 6: that's on the ground would be helpful. 223 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 3: Okay, So I think we can say at least this 224 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 3: is not a crank incident, Ryan, this is something being 225 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 3: taken very seriously. By the way, that was just three 226 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 3: days ago, and the situation has gotten even worse with 227 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 3: drone sietse or multiple as I said, that happened just 228 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 3: last night. So this is pretty shocking stuff. You've got 229 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 3: the State of New Jersey says the moment that we 230 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 3: get eyes on them, they go dark. This is really 231 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 3: something that fits with a lot of previous UAP incidents 232 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 3: for people who have been following them and they in 233 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 3: terms of the characteristics, I'll just break it down because 234 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 3: a lot of these have the same ones. First and 235 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 3: foremost is this number one over a military base. Number two, 236 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 3: traveling in groups. Number three, no military or civilian explanation 237 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 3: for what's going on. And then number four, which we're 238 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 3: about to get to, is wild rumors circulating to cover 239 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 3: up the real explanation, which is we have no earthly idea. 240 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:47,319 Speaker 1: We have no earthly idea. 241 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 5: Separate from my favorite part of that was where the 242 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 5: guy's like, what's your message to people in New Jersey's like, 243 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 5: the message is what I just said. Yeah, So how 244 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 5: is the UAP community reacting to this? Because freaking out, 245 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,319 Speaker 5: I'm not in that community, and I'm yeah, okay, yeah, 246 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 5: let's go well for us, for us, the something something's 247 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 5: up Yeah. 248 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: This is a pattern. 249 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 3: This is a recognizable pattern, multiple incidents. It fits with 250 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 3: multiple reports of pilots and of other US Navy assets 251 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 3: and others that have all talked about this. It's just 252 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 3: the most high profile because it's over a populated center. Now, 253 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 3: sticking with that, we have some testimony here from somebody 254 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 3: who actually encountered one of these drones. 255 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: Let's take a listen. 256 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 8: I know, in my own personal experience, I was driving 257 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 8: home from a friend's house, passing by Flanders Valley golf 258 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 8: course and I saw a drone that looked like the 259 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 8: size of a small car, just hovering right above the 260 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 8: golf course. And I tried to get a picture of it, 261 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 8: but you know how it is the lights, it's kind 262 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 8: of hard to get a true image out of it. 263 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 8: But it's honestly kind of been a little comical too 264 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 8: as well, because people come in here with all their 265 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 8: conspiracies and all their own ideas of what could be happening, 266 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 8: and it is nice in a coffee shop environment to 267 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 8: talk about it. 268 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 3: And so you are telling me that some of these 269 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,839 Speaker 3: drones are as large as a car, some are as 270 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 3: small as the more conventional drones. 271 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: What are they they sound like, and what are they 272 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 1: moving like? When you do see them. 273 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 8: See sometimes it's hard to really get a true idea 274 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 8: of what they sound like because some of them are 275 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 8: very high up, looks like like ten thousand feet, and 276 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 8: then others could be around five hundred feet. So the 277 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 8: larger ones, I have seen stories and I have heard 278 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 8: that it could sound like a helicopter, while the small ones, 279 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 8: when they're high. 280 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: Up, you can't really hear anything at all, can't really 281 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: hear anything at all. 282 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 3: Now keep in mind, in terms of the FAA, everybody says, oh, 283 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,199 Speaker 3: these might be civilian drones, might be a couple of 284 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 3: other people. The technologies not fit with that. First and 285 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 3: foremost is banned right on flying drones at night. 286 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: So there's that. 287 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 3: I know, there's complicated rules, something about line of sight, 288 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 3: but the higher ones they wouldn't even fit with that. 289 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: So there's number one. 290 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 3: Number two is that these have been investigated now at 291 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 3: the state level, at the federal level, and now at 292 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 3: the military level. And so for example from the FBI saying, quote, 293 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 3: they have no idea what these drones are. 294 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 1: Let's take a listener. 295 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,559 Speaker 9: You're telling me, we don't know what the hell these 296 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 9: drones are in New Jersey? 297 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 1: Are is that coright? 298 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 9: That's right, It's crazy. 299 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 1: I mean that's crazy. 300 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 4: That's madness that we don't know what these drones are. 301 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 3: That was from the United States Congress where a FBI 302 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 3: agent there was testifying. Now, let's get to the wild rumors, 303 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 3: shall we. So in the vacuum of all of this information, 304 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 3: people always come out and they start hearing things from people. Right, 305 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 3: some of those people are congressmen. Now, yesterday, Congressman Jeff V. Andrew, 306 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,319 Speaker 3: most famous I think for switching from Democrat to Republican, 307 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 3: took to Fox News airwaves and made a wild claim 308 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 3: that these drones are actually Iranian drones that are coming 309 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 3: from a quote mothership off of the US East Coast. 310 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:38,959 Speaker 1: Let's take a lesson. 311 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 9: Well, here's the real deal, Harris. 312 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 10: You know, I'm also on the Transportation Committee, on the 313 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 10: Aviation Subcommittee, and I've gotten to know people and from 314 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 10: very high sources, very qualified sources, very responsible sources. I'm 315 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 10: going to tell you the real deal. Iran launched a 316 00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 10: mothership probably about a month ago that contained these drones. 317 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 1: That mothership is off I'm gonna tell you the deal. 318 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 10: It's off the East coast of the United States of America. 319 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 10: They've launched drones. Is everything that we can see or hear. 320 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 10: And again, these are from high sources. I don't say 321 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 10: this lightly. Now, you know, we know there was a 322 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 10: probability it could have been our own government. We know 323 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 10: it's not our own government because they would have let 324 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 10: us know. 325 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: It could have. 326 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 10: Been some really glorified hobbyist or hobbyists that we're doing 327 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 10: something unbelievable. They don't have the technology. 328 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: Hmm, all right, So I have a number of questions. 329 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 4: First question, when can we do war with the run? 330 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 11: Yeah? 331 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 1: First of all, does this fit with wanting to go 332 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 1: to war with Ron? Yes? 333 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 3: Number two mothership really the Iranian Navy, the vaunted blue 334 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 3: water Iranian Navy has a capacity to come all the 335 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 3: way to the US East Queen never saw there and 336 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 3: to be able. Yet nobody on open source was able 337 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 3: to track it. The US Navy wasn't or at maybe right, 338 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 3: So it's like and then that mothership phones are allowed 339 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 3: to fly back and forth from said mothership now for 340 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 3: multiple weeks without anybody spotting it. 341 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, go ahead and color me skeptical. These are very 342 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: responsible sources. 343 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, very responsible, very respectable listen. I mean, and by 344 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 3: the way, look, this is super annoying for the congressman 345 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 3: to do this because I genuinely think it is irresponsible. 346 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 3: There's not a single scrap of evidence to back up 347 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 3: what he said. By the way, he did walk it 348 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 3: all back later and he was like, well, I said 349 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 3: it could be Iran, and it's like, no, bro, we 350 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 3: just played the tape. 351 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 1: That's how he said. That's all he said. 352 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 5: Nothing authoritative has ever followed. I serve on the transportation. 353 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, right, By the way, I serve on the transportation. Okay, 354 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 3: because joke Committee and all the Congress that they. 355 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 5: Let anybody from New Jersey on the TRANSFEAH is appalling, 356 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 5: exactly right, Okay, So yeah, especially if anybody wh's been 357 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 5: on the turnpike. 358 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: All right. 359 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 3: So then finally we get a Pentagon press conference where 360 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 3: they're asked about all of this, and they said two 361 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 3: very important things. Number One, what the congressman saying is 362 00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 3: totally not true. But the most important one is this, 363 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 3: according to assessment, it is not a foreign military asset. 364 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: Let's take a listen. 365 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 7: Representative Jeff Fan Drew, who is a Republican from New Jersey, 366 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 7: was just on the air saying that Iran launched a 367 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 7: mothership probably about a month ago that contains these drones, 368 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 7: and that that mothership is off the coast of the 369 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 7: east coast of the United States. Is there any truth 370 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 7: to that? 371 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: There is not any truth to that. 372 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 3: There is no Iranian ship off the coast of the 373 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 3: United States, and there's no so called mothership launching drones 374 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 3: towards the United States. All right, No mothership, no drones. 375 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 3: They also said it is not a foreign US military asset. 376 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 3: It basically only leaves two options. One is we have 377 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 3: no idea, and the other is that it's a US 378 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 3: military drones. I mean, I guess is theoretically possible that 379 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 3: it is and that they're not telling us, But there 380 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 3: are a lot of weird things that continue to stack 381 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 3: up against it. So, for example, can we put a 382 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 3: nine please up on the screen. This is a statement 383 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 3: from US North Command. 384 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 1: Now. 385 00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 3: US North Command says that they've quote conducted a deliberate 386 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 3: analysis of the events in consultation with other military organizations 387 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 3: and interagency partners. At this time, we have not been 388 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,719 Speaker 3: requested to assist with these events. So according to them, 389 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 3: this is the military right responsible for US North Command 390 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 3: and US Home Defense as well as Canada, and they 391 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 3: tell us, no, we've done an analysis here and we've 392 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 3: said that we have not even been requested to deal 393 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 3: with any of this. 394 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: Part of the reason why I don't think it's Iranian. 395 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 3: And the other funny thing is whenever you continue to 396 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 3: read Ryan and you see some of the statements they're 397 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 3: referring to it as a quote local law enforcement matter. 398 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 3: But then when you talk to the state and the 399 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 3: state troopers and others and including the government of Jersey, 400 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 3: He's like. 401 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: Guys, airspace is not us. That's a federal matter. So 402 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 1: there's a lot of finger pointing going on. And I 403 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,199 Speaker 1: think that the answer is they don't know. 404 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 3: That's the terrifying part. And look, again, we are not 405 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 3: dealing with is one or two. We've got multiple verified videos, 406 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 3: got multiple incidents. We've got the freaking governor who says 407 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 3: that every time a helicopter trusts at close to these things, 408 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:02,120 Speaker 3: they go quote unquote go dark. 409 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 1: You don't think the Patterson Police Department can. 410 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, right, handle Pattison Police Department. They're totally unable to 411 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 3: do all of this. And the other thing is is 412 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 3: that you have multiple sidings across multiple different donains. So 413 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 3: let's go ahead and put a eight please on the screen. 414 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 3: This is from New Jersey Media. I mean they exhaustively 415 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 3: list here all of the counties where these drone reports 416 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 3: have happened. I mean, we're talking about all over the state. 417 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 3: But one of the things that really caught my eye 418 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 3: yesterday was actually a statement that came out of Naval. 419 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 1: Air Station Earl. 420 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 3: And what they said is, quote, we are aware of 421 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 3: the reports of increased drone activity in New Jersey and 422 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,719 Speaker 3: are actively monitoring the situation. We have received reports from 423 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 3: our neighboring communities and law enforcement. 424 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 1: But here's this quote. 425 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 3: We can confirm at least one instance of an unidentified 426 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 3: drone entering the airspace above Naval Weapon Station Earl. Above 427 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 3: Naval Weapon Station Earl. So you have here that's on 428 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 3: the record from the United States Military. 429 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 5: Unidentified object that was flying above the naval Unidentified flying object. 430 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 3: Unidentified flying object that was flying over Naval Station role. 431 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:14,679 Speaker 1: So you can call them, let's just call them UFO. 432 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 3: Quality, UFO quality, UFO if you want to, So listen. 433 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 3: I mean, look, I've only given people the facts here. 434 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,719 Speaker 3: You can you can make up your own mind. I mean, 435 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 3: I think the real thing that we could take away 436 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 3: from this is the FEDS just don't know, they have 437 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,920 Speaker 3: no and clue, or they're hiding something colossal. There's some 438 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 3: secret government but you know, everybody always thinks that it 439 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,400 Speaker 3: could be some secret government program. But it'd be pretty 440 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 3: stupid to have a secret government drone program to be 441 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 3: flying all over the most part one of the most 442 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 3: populated and dense areas in the entire United States. Ignite 443 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 3: a local panic. You have the governor of the state 444 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 3: of New Jersey. I think the mayors of every town 445 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 3: in New Jersey convened yesterday for a meeting. Many of 446 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 3: the mayors came away from it, some of them had 447 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 3: drove up to three hours, and we're like, we didn't 448 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 3: learn anything from this. They basically just said the same thing, 449 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 3: we have no idea what's happening here this legislators, Yeah, 450 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,160 Speaker 3: that's what they said. State legislators said, I don't know, 451 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 3: you know, we have no clue about what's happening here. 452 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 3: That they keep saying that we need more federal resources 453 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 3: to tell us what's happening. 454 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 5: And interestingly, the President has been briefed, Yes, we Okay, 455 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 5: the president has a limited amount of time, and this 456 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 5: president has extra limited amount of time. 457 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 1: He's got tend. 458 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,679 Speaker 3: Nothing right, that's going to take photos at Christmas parties. 459 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 3: That's about what he's got. 460 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: This roads to his level. We've got I believe it's 461 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:26,919 Speaker 1: a seven. Yeah, a seven. Let's go and play it. 462 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 12: So we are certainly aware the president is where so 463 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:34,919 Speaker 12: we're closely tracking and the activity and coordinating closely with 464 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:39,679 Speaker 12: relevant agency including DHS and FBI to continue to investigate 465 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 12: these incidents. Don't have anything beyond that to share. 466 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 9: Obviously, this is. 467 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 12: Something that DHS and FBI are tracking very very closely, 468 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,920 Speaker 12: and so I would have to refer you to them directly. 469 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:50,679 Speaker 1: There you go. 470 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 3: The president has been brief they are monitoring the situation. 471 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 3: You take it for whatever you will. 472 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 1: You know. That's that's all we've got so far, folks. 473 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 3: And you know, even as I continue to scour, I 474 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 3: don't see the national media really taking this seriously at all. 475 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 3: But if you consider it at a base and this 476 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 3: is part of the reason why many lawmakers who when 477 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 3: you strip apart the stigma and people calling you crazy, 478 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 3: at a baseline level, it's crazy to have things that 479 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 3: are flying around in your airspace and you don't know 480 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 3: what they are, as we multiple congressmen and others have 481 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 3: said they said, we have reports of these things over 482 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 3: US military installations. We have reports of them interfering with equipment. 483 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,679 Speaker 3: We have reports of sailors and airmen who have no 484 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 3: idea what to do, They're afraid, or they just simply 485 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 3: you know, it's a threat to them because things are 486 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 3: going around in your airspace without any knowledge of it. 487 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 3: And this is perhaps the most high profile example that 488 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 3: we've had in years now of something that is like 489 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,679 Speaker 3: this happening. It's already the national media, I think, is 490 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 3: trying to memory hol it, and I think the main 491 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 3: reason why is it's embarrassing and it's difficult right when 492 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 3: to tell a story and just have of I don't know, 493 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 3: nobody knows, but anytime completely, you know, they have zero idea. 494 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 1: All we have our little little data point. 495 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 5: If they are unidentified objects flying over the remains of 496 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 5: Evanna Trump like that's important. 497 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, you joke, but this is the 498 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 3: president of Lexical Compound. Yeah, I think he's going to 499 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 3: be there for Christmas something like that, or. 500 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 1: Let possibly he's in New York today. 501 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 3: I know that at the New York Stock Exchange, So 502 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 3: what does that mean, probably will be stopping off at Bedminster. 503 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 3: And then you have these drones that are flying around 504 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 3: that are up there. We have US military installations that 505 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 3: don't know what's happening in daval air stations. You have 506 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 3: reports here from the governor of the state. And then 507 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 3: you had so many incidents that happened just last night 508 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 3: apparently where multiple other residents and others are reporting them 509 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 3: to authority. So if you see anything going on, if 510 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 3: you see anything, just let us know. If you can 511 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,640 Speaker 3: post the video, report it to your local authorities, and 512 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 3: we'll continue to monitor the situations. 513 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 1: Totally crazy stuff. All right, Let's move on to inflation. 514 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 3: This is a really crazy story, Ryan, and potentially it 515 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 3: could be you know, it's going to be an issue 516 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 3: there for Donald Trump. This is one of the main 517 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 3: reasons why he won the presidency. Let's put this up 518 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:17,360 Speaker 3: there on the screen. Quote unquote, Strengthening inflation poses challenge 519 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 3: for Trump and for the Fed. So inflation actually ticked 520 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,639 Speaker 3: up this month two point seven percent. 521 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 1: Quote assigned to that path to. 522 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 3: Bringing down price pressures remains bumpy quote unquote progress on 523 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 3: bringing down inflation stalled in November, CPI ticked up two 524 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 3: point seven percent increase. But it's the prices of consumer 525 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 3: goods that are really jacking things up right now. Quote, 526 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,679 Speaker 3: everything from cars to living room furniture excluding food and 527 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 3: energy increase at the fastest month over month pace in 528 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 3: a year and a half, largely led by a jump 529 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 3: in vehicle prices. That was partly because drivers were replacing 530 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 3: damaged cars and trucks after recent devastating hurricanes. But also 531 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 3: the rise is notable because the prices for many goods 532 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 3: had been falling for about a year through August and 533 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:06,359 Speaker 3: now appears to have been reversed. One of the ways 534 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:08,400 Speaker 3: that you can really look into this is that it's 535 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 3: in the core areas in terms of making everyday life 536 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 3: more expensive. Whenever you see the actual dig into the numbers. 537 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 3: Let's put this up there from the Washington Post, and 538 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 3: I'm going to read here this is actually really crazy. 539 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 3: So what they show is that the is that with 540 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 3: eggs and with auto insurance. In particular, food prices, which 541 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 3: weighed heavily on Americans, rose point four percent over the month, 542 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 3: but prices for meat, fish, poultry, and eggs rose one 543 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:40,679 Speaker 3: point seven percent. Beef price increased three percent and are 544 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 3: up five percent on the year. Eggs are up eight 545 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,400 Speaker 3: point two percent and are up forty percent on the year. 546 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,439 Speaker 3: Gasoline up by point six percent, but still down some 547 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 3: eight percent from the year ago period. It's the auto 548 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 3: insurance that really stuck out to me, because what you 549 00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 3: saw in that number, Ryan, was a thirteen point seven 550 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 3: percent or sorry, twelve point seven percent increase in auto 551 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 3: insurance in just a single year. And this is really 552 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:12,159 Speaker 3: shocking because what it shows is that not only is 553 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 3: the price of carrying a car up significantly, but the 554 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 3: price of the car itself is also up significantly. And 555 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 3: then you consider that rates are still very high, so 556 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 3: the car loans themselves. So you now have a situation 557 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 3: where average car payment is going to rocket up from 558 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,919 Speaker 3: the price of the car, the rate of the car, 559 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:35,880 Speaker 3: and now the physical carrying cost with auto insurance. And 560 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 3: one of the really sad parts about this is I 561 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,919 Speaker 3: talked a lot about this in terms of families, is 562 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 3: that you know, now used to be like you had 563 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 3: your sixteen year old kid. Everyone is annoyed because oh 564 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 3: it jumped from one hundred and twenty to four hundred 565 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 3: dollars or something. Nowadays, you would be praying and wishing 566 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:54,919 Speaker 3: for a four hundred dollars insurance payment just for you 567 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 3: and your wife, all right, for you and your husband. 568 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 3: Nowadays it's like five hundred dollars, two two thousand dollars 569 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 3: of what that jump is. 570 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:03,640 Speaker 1: It's absolutely shocking. 571 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, the days where the sixteen year old, Like when 572 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:12,159 Speaker 5: I was sixteen, you know, I scraped together seventeen hundred dollars. 573 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 5: I got five hundred dollars from a car accident I 574 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:16,880 Speaker 5: was in and I was working at. 575 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 1: A side job flush yeah, yeah, combined and was for 576 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: seventeen hundred bucks. 577 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 5: Was able to get a hont A cord used as hell, 578 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 5: And that was very normal, yes, even for lower income people, 579 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 5: for teenagers be able to And then yeah, the insurance 580 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 5: is a little more because you're a terrible driver, and 581 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 5: it should be more because sure you're a danger on 582 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 5: the roads just as much as a ninety five year old, 583 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 5: maybe even more so. 584 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 1: But it was affordable. 585 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 5: This is getting this is getting unaffordable for the average 586 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:48,399 Speaker 5: middle class family at this point. 587 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: And we counterpoints. 588 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 5: We were flagging this more than a year ago, and 589 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 5: actually a piece you read there is a nice little vindication. 590 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:57,479 Speaker 1: We can put it up there. 591 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:00,199 Speaker 5: People that were dunking on me about pointing out all 592 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 5: the storming storms and the floods were driving a significant 593 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 5: amount of the auto insurance becris. People like, what, that's crazy, 594 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 5: that's impossible. No, dude, what do you think happens when 595 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 5: you get much more hail than used to get. 596 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 1: Hail destroys cars. 597 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 4: That's a couple thousand bucks to get that fixed. 598 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 5: Maybe flooding more than that, Yes, because it's doing it's 599 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 5: destroying the whole body. Flooding your carget, your car gets 600 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 5: filled with water. How much do you think that costs 601 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 5: to get fixed? 602 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:26,680 Speaker 1: Look? 603 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 5: Western North Carolina, Florida, Alabama, George, Louisiana, Like all of 604 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,880 Speaker 5: these places getting whacked with storms. And that's before we're 605 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 5: talking about all the all the tornadoes and the and 606 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 5: as costs of cars rise, then the cost of fixing 607 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 5: them rises. Yes, And there is also then and this 608 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 5: needs this requires a lot more investigation. But there is 609 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 5: a something Dave Dan's outlet would be good at looking into. 610 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: Maybe we'll team up with him on that. Private equity 611 00:27:58,200 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 1: is like buying. 612 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 5: Up a whole bunch of car and rolling up the 613 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 5: auto repair industry. And so what private equity does when 614 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 5: they when they buy up, say medical facilities, they figure 615 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 5: out how to upcode to insurance companies and medicare, and 616 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 5: all of a sudden they're extracting a whole lot more 617 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 5: money out of these insurance companies, whether it's medicare or 618 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 5: private insurance. They're doing the same thing with auto insurance, 619 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 5: and so they're figuring out, how do we maximize what 620 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 5: we can get out of this insurance company. Meanwhile, the 621 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:32,640 Speaker 5: car makers themselves are making everything automated. So every time 622 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 5: you roll in now and you've got you know, you 623 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 5: might have your tire pressure might be low in the 624 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 5: old days, like just a couple of years ago, you go. 625 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: And you fill up, you fill up your tire. 626 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 5: Now they're like, we got to run the system because 627 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 5: we've got to do something about that code. And that's 628 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 5: like a hundred bucks interesting, And then they find something 629 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 5: else and it's like auto mechanics have always been good 630 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 5: at figuring out ways to charge you more, but private 631 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 5: equity takes that to an exponential new level, right, and 632 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 5: it's just and then the insurance company is like, okay, 633 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 5: well we're raising prices by thirteen percent. 634 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 3: Price is actually shocking because put that New York Times 635 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 3: tear sheet up there on the screen. 636 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna read a little bit from this B three please. 637 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 3: So what they talk about in here is about the 638 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 3: quote era of the twenty thousand dollars family car insurance bill. 639 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 3: And they quote one particular woman who said that she 640 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 3: called to add her sixteen year old to her car insurance. 641 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 3: She drives a twenty eighteen Subaru, and the representative casually 642 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 3: informed her her annual premium would go from seventeen hundred 643 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 3: to over five thousand dollars. They say, quote, it turns 644 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 3: out she has it pretty good. There are plenty of 645 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 3: families with three or four children whose annual premiums will 646 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 3: top twenty thousand dollars this year. That can be enough 647 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 3: to replace one of the cars that the entire policy covers. 648 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 1: Quote how can this be? 649 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 3: It's the insurance industry, which means it's complicated, unpredictable, and 650 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 3: more or less especially because you literally have to have 651 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 3: insurance to be able to drive. 652 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: Go ahead. 653 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 5: One other vicious cycle that's going on here. Yeah, and 654 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 5: you see this all over the country. People are confronting 655 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 5: this The more that prices rise, the more unaffordable it becomes. 656 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 5: The more people are uninsured, Yes, because they can't pay, 657 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 5: just can't make the bills. 658 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: I was about to get to that, and then boom, 659 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 1: uninsured people. That raises the tub. 660 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 3: We have a critical mass of uninsured population. Some of 661 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 3: it is immigration related, apparently, that's what a lot of 662 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 3: people are speculating around the large number of people who 663 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 3: are here illegally and largely drive. 664 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 1: Without a legit analysis. It's true. 665 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 3: I mean, it's just at a basic level, you have 666 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 3: a twenty million people who are illegally ten million people 667 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,719 Speaker 3: are probably driving, all of them legally, are uninsured because 668 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 3: that's what this is admitted by them and by social 669 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 3: scientists and others. So if you're getting to a car accident, 670 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 3: that's number one. Number two, that's tail as old as time. 671 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 3: In Texas, everybody in Texas got a story getting rear 672 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 3: ended by a guy and he's like, oh, sorry, you know, 673 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 3: insurance drives away. 674 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll pay some cash, you know whatever. 675 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 3: This has been going on for twenty five since I 676 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 3: was since I was a kid, I remember hearing stories 677 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 3: about this. Now the whole country gets to experience what 678 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 3: we in Texas got to grow up with second though, 679 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 3: is the rise actually, and this is why I think 680 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 3: you can't just blame it all on immigration. A lot 681 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 3: of this has to do with cars. And I didn't 682 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 3: think about this, but the nicer the cars become, the 683 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 3: more expensive they are to fix. And what I mean 684 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 3: by that is that even the baseline models of a 685 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 3: lot of cars these days, they've got you know, the 686 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 3: rear end sensors and all that stuff. Well, it used 687 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 3: to be when you crash or let's say somebody sideswipes 688 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 3: you and they hit your side, Okay, you just have 689 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 3: to replace the piece of metal. 690 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 1: You go to it. Now that's why I used to 691 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 1: just go to a jug yard exactly. 692 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 3: You have the famous you know, you have the what 693 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 3: the door that doesn't match everything else looks like shit, 694 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 3: but whatever. But now you have that it needs a 695 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 3: sensor and it has that and it is wired to 696 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 3: the computer. And so whenever that happens, you actually have 697 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 3: to replace like three or four different things. 698 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 1: Also electric vehicles. 699 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 3: There is there's a famous story of a Rivian like 700 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 3: a Rivian got involved in a rear end or something, 701 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 3: and it costs forty thousand dollars to fix, because it's 702 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 3: not just the sensors. It was something about the way 703 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 3: that the car itself is configured, and they needed a 704 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 3: brand new pay. 705 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: You might as well totaled it to me, honest. 706 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 3: But that's the point is that in basic fender benders 707 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 3: and other small accidents, is that as the cars get nicer, 708 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 3: first of all more expensive, but second really is nicer, 709 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 3: more complex. 710 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 5: With a lot more and sensors, the way they crumple. Right, 711 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 5: So this crumpling is good for the human, yes, bad 712 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 5: for the bad. 713 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 11: For the car. 714 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 3: So there's a lot of different things that are going 715 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 3: on in terms of that. Second is also something that 716 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 3: was flagged to me by somebody in the insurance industry. 717 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 3: Let's put this up there on the screen. I don't 718 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 3: know how much of this is true. This could be 719 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 3: coped by them, but I thought I would mention it anyways. 720 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 3: It says quote the big impact of quote unquote social 721 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,880 Speaker 3: inflation on small and mid size commercial auto insurans. And 722 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 3: it says the term social inflation brings to mind jury 723 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 3: trials and multimillion dollar verdicts, often claims for involving serious 724 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 3: injury for the claimant, but the effects of social inflation 725 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 3: go beyond these headline grabbing cases. The whole dynamic of 726 00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 3: social inflation that leads to verdicts has trickled down effects 727 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 3: that can impact any claim, including basic auto injury for 728 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 3: something as benigned as a sprain ankle. This means that 729 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 3: even small and mid sized companies with relatively small autoliability 730 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,520 Speaker 3: exposure can and do pay the price. Commercial auto a 731 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:18,719 Speaker 3: claim severity has now risen seventy two percent since twenty thirteen, 732 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 3: with a median annual increase of six point three. Economic 733 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 3: and social inflation are big culprits behind the increase, contributing 734 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 3: to some ninety six billion if increase in the combined 735 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 3: claim payouts for US personal and commercial auto liability in 736 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 3: the last decade. 737 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 1: So what that means is that there's also I mean, 738 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: you know, lawyers and all. 739 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 3: These other people talk about it too, that a lot 740 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 3: of the tort reform and there's a lot of lawyers 741 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 3: who obviously pray not just okay, so they justify it 742 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:47,960 Speaker 3: by representing people against auto companies whatever. 743 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 1: Don't I don't know the whole story. I'm sure there's 744 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 1: something in between. 745 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 3: The point is is that you have a lot of 746 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 3: claimants with insurance route by the way right now is rampant. 747 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 3: By the way, get a dash cam. If you're out there, 748 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 3: got a dash camp. It's important. It could save you 749 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 3: a lot of money sometime in the future. So there's 750 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 3: a famous video going around right now of a guy 751 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 3: who slams his car rear ends his car into somebody. 752 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 3: The only reason she isn't held liable is because she 753 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,720 Speaker 3: has a dash camp showing that the other guy clearly 754 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 3: is at fault. So insurance fraud and personal injury lawyers 755 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 3: and all these other people are milking the auto insurance companies. 756 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 3: A lot of those judgments are trickling down. You have 757 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,760 Speaker 3: the illegal immigrant situation, You've also got these more expensive 758 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 3: car situation, and you've got the storms. So it does 759 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 3: seem like it was a perfect storm quote unquote of events. Also, 760 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,240 Speaker 3: I think a lot of claims were new on December, 761 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 3: so that's another reason why this particular month was very high. 762 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:38,839 Speaker 1: But I feel for people out there. 763 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 3: Man, if you got three kids or something like that 764 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 3: and you're paying fifteen twenty grand a year in car insurance, 765 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 3: that's crazy, especially if you, Oh, Man, if you live 766 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 3: in Florida, your home insurance rate if you're lucky to 767 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 3: have it jacked up your auto insurance rate. 768 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,359 Speaker 1: Crazy if you live in California. 769 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 3: Apparently California just instituted some new regulations about mandatory coverage 770 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 3: for every person with increasing the amount that you legally 771 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 3: have to have for your coverage, which again drives the 772 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 3: price up. So there's a huge confluence of events, but 773 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:08,879 Speaker 3: the bottom line is always the same as that it's 774 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:10,360 Speaker 3: harder to just be an everyday American. 775 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, it just sucks. 776 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,840 Speaker 3: I can't I cannot imagine paying twenty thousand dollars a 777 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:16,839 Speaker 3: year for car insurance. That's crazy, It's absolutely crazy. 778 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 5: Might need a national car insurance at some point, I 779 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:19,360 Speaker 5: don't know. 780 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 3: I mean, you need something singlet You've got to figure 781 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,319 Speaker 3: out a way to get you know, because you know 782 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 3: these This is, as we said, the basics. 783 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 1: It's the carrying cost. 784 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 3: Because if you go from a situation of oh, about 785 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 3: a fifteen dollars saved up a lot of money, fifteen 786 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 3: thousand dollars a year, fifteen thousand dollars car, which is 787 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 3: not it used to be expensive. Nowadays it's bigger and 788 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:40,400 Speaker 3: barely go and buy you anything. Probably something used with 789 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 3: seventy thousand miles or something on it, maybe even one 790 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 3: hundred thousand. So you buy that car, but now the 791 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 3: carrying cost of said car, with car payment and with 792 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,719 Speaker 3: insurances now goes very very high. So the burn rate 793 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,759 Speaker 3: of the average balance sheet for an American just makes 794 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:56,279 Speaker 3: it very, very difficult. If you're the average income on 795 00:35:56,360 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 3: seventy five thousand dollars a year household, good luck. I honestly, 796 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:01,800 Speaker 3: I don't know how I have two cars. Then almost 797 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 3: impossible do whatever you have. 798 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 5: Help with grocery prices, oh right, if that's if that's 799 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 5: fifty percent more than it was a few years ago, 800 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 5: you're getting killed, even if you got the best coupons 801 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 5: for food line that you can find. 802 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,200 Speaker 1: It's very sad, it really is. It makes me sad. 803 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:16,359 Speaker 1: I can't imagine what. 804 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 3: It's like for people who are out there, maybe with 805 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 3: a couple of kids or whatever. Maybe you decide to 806 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 3: have to downside to one car downside, so you quote 807 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 3: unquote one car for one family. 808 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 1: But that can be very difficult. 809 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 3: As well, you know, especially if you live in modern 810 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,359 Speaker 3: suburb or somewhere like that. If you know, not like us, 811 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 3: you don't live in an urban area, and you literally 812 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:34,400 Speaker 3: have to drive everywhere for it. This is a lot 813 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,360 Speaker 3: of downstream implications, you know, in terms of why this 814 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 3: is all bad, so really really sad story. 815 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 1: Wanted to make sure that we flagged it. 816 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,000 Speaker 3: Trump certainly has his work cut out for him, because 817 00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 3: this is gonna be one of those number one things. 818 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:46,400 Speaker 1: And honestly, that'd be one of the things that I 819 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 1: would focus on too. 820 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,400 Speaker 3: I'd be like, we need to lower the price of 821 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,920 Speaker 3: car and carrying cost for these for everybody. 822 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:53,720 Speaker 1: It's not just homes. 823 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:57,800 Speaker 3: It's also just very basic stuff like this, food, car, gas, home. 824 00:36:57,960 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 11: You know. 825 00:36:58,080 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 3: I mean, if you focus just on those four, you'd 826 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 3: be here. But you know, nobody in Washington likes. 827 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 11: To talk that way. 828 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 3: All right, So speaking of skyrocketing insurance, shall we We'll 829 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 3: get to Luigi Mangioni and the current developments in the 830 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,840 Speaker 3: case and also the social thought.

So we've got two comedians winging, 840 00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 3: Joe Rogan and Bill Burr with some cutting analysis with them. 841 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:38,839 Speaker 1: Yes, we'll get to that next. Let's take a list 842 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 1: of the comedians. 843 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 13: Bad und denying clams.

Yes, he was going to be 1018 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 5: really in for it because obviously inmates love nothing more 1019 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 5: than health insurancey. 1020 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:09,000 Speaker 1: Of course, of course, and. 1021 00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:12,040 Speaker 5: So his theory was actually put to the test as 1022 00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 5: he's in a Pennsylvania prison here. 1023 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 3: So here Pennsylvania prisoners who are shouting back and forth 1024 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,560 Speaker 3: with the News Nation camera crew about the conditions and 1025 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:21,880 Speaker 3: other things inside the prison. 1026 00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:22,880 Speaker 1: Let's take a listen. 1027 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:31,759 Speaker 18: This is just from a few hours ago, and here 1028 00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,840 Speaker 18: they are ten o'clock, as promised they said earlier today. 1029 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:38,720 Speaker 18: Tell Ashley Banfield that Luigi is watching at ten o'clock. 1030 00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:41,600 Speaker 18: I mean, obviously, you know, that's just a hard roast 1031 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:43,919 Speaker 18: at this point because they're not near Luigi in any way. 1032 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,680 Speaker 19: Can I just ask the guys if they can hear 1033 00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:50,240 Speaker 19: me right now to answer yes or no very loud? 1034 00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:54,240 Speaker 19: Does Luigi have television in his single cell? 1035 00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:01,359 Speaker 3: No? 1036 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:06,440 Speaker 20: They said no, Right, Obviously we have a little bit 1037 00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:09,560 Speaker 20: of a delay that they're getting. Yeah, they're getting the 1038 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:11,600 Speaker 20: questions and they're and they're giving us the answer to me, 1039 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,920 Speaker 20: he does not have Wow, this is quite something. This 1040 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:16,880 Speaker 20: is the strangest interview I've ever conducted. 1041 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:19,920 Speaker 18: Me too, Ashley. Uh, you know, according to the Department 1042 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,799 Speaker 18: of Corrections, he's got his own solitary cell. It's not 1043 00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,800 Speaker 18: solitary confinement, but he's by himself. It's not dorm style. 1044 00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 18: I'm not sure exactly what those guys got going on 1045 00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 18: in terms of a living situation. It sounds like they're 1046 00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:32,680 Speaker 18: all clustered together. Isn't it interesting to see with the 1047 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,600 Speaker 18: accommodations that they have. They got their own light switches. 1048 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:39,360 Speaker 18: They're obviously watching TV any sort of ten o'clock curfew, 1049 00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:43,920 Speaker 18: you know, Yeah, they're they're doing at this very moment. 1050 00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:47,440 Speaker 3: That is pretty extraordinary. Also, what kind of facility. Is 1051 00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:50,279 Speaker 3: this guys can just yell out, you know, it's like cav. 1052 00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:51,760 Speaker 4: I mean, this is this a jail? 1053 00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:51,960 Speaker 13: Ye? 1054 00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:55,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, And so this is this is most American prisons. 1055 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:58,239 Speaker 5: So basically those dudes are in a common room. The 1056 00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 5: windows are open. Probably they in fact, maybe they have 1057 00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:06,600 Speaker 5: the windows open and the heat on just just to 1058 00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:09,240 Speaker 5: make it miserable from both directions. But so it seems 1059 00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:11,520 Speaker 5: like all those guys are in the common room, it's 1060 00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:13,960 Speaker 5: you know, it's not yet time, you know, time to 1061 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:15,880 Speaker 5: go back and sell and go to sleep. So they 1062 00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:19,600 Speaker 5: all sit around there and they and they're watching television news. Yeah, 1063 00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:21,839 Speaker 5: and they had like as you saw there, they had 1064 00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:24,200 Speaker 5: told they had yelled out the window to the crew, 1065 00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:27,759 Speaker 5: tell Ashley, we're gonna be watching at ten pm. Then 1066 00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:29,640 Speaker 5: sure enough they were there for their appointment at ten 1067 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 5: ten pm and communicating back and forth. 1068 00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:34,840 Speaker 1: You love to see it. 1069 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:40,319 Speaker 5: So I think that waters theory that Luigi's gonna be 1070 00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:45,240 Speaker 5: persona no grada in American prisons is not not panning 1071 00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:45,839 Speaker 5: out so far. 1072 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:47,880 Speaker 1: So I was speculating because so first of all, this 1073 00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:48,279 Speaker 1: is jail. 1074 00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:50,399 Speaker 5: Maybe he thought he was going to Dan. Maybe maybe 1075 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 5: Waters thought he was going to Dan. 1076 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:53,880 Speaker 1: Berry, Dan Berry. That's in Connecticut. 1077 00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:56,719 Speaker 5: That's that's the that's the Connecticut one where all the 1078 00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:58,440 Speaker 5: rich people there. 1079 00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:00,560 Speaker 1: Luigi might have a problem, that's right, he certainly. 1080 00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:02,399 Speaker 3: Maybe you'd have more problem in the federal system, which 1081 00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:06,800 Speaker 3: is probably more phill filled with with criminals, white collar 1082 00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:10,520 Speaker 3: criminals and others. But if convicted, right, he would be 1083 00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:14,680 Speaker 3: in the New York State penitentiary system. We were speculating 1084 00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:16,839 Speaker 3: as to whether he'd be sent to that Dana Mora 1085 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:20,600 Speaker 3: prison from the show Escape at Dana Mora with other 1086 00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 3: violent criminals in the New York state system all the 1087 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:25,960 Speaker 3: way up I think in upstate New York. But yeah, 1088 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:27,759 Speaker 3: we'll see, we'll see what happens to him. It's going 1089 00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:29,400 Speaker 3: to be, as we said, it's going to be the 1090 00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:31,359 Speaker 3: trial of the century. I think we can at. 1091 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 1: Least guy's never gonna have to buy a cigarette, he thinks. So, 1092 00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:36,279 Speaker 1: he thinks, so all right, yeah, maybe we're right. 1093 00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:38,160 Speaker 3: Maybe, But are people going to remember in twenty years 1094 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:40,240 Speaker 3: how long is he going to get if he gets convicted? 1095 00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:42,520 Speaker 5: Well, I mean also he's going to be so he's 1096 00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:45,280 Speaker 5: got back pain and to be in prison, Yeah, that's 1097 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:45,879 Speaker 5: that's rough. 1098 00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:47,719 Speaker 3: And he also, I mean look, we I still don't 1099 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:49,279 Speaker 3: know what he's gonna pleade. He could be he still 1100 00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:53,520 Speaker 3: could plead not guilty by reason of insanity, especially. 1101 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:57,080 Speaker 4: Not guilty by reason of just finding not guilty. 1102 00:49:57,360 --> 00:49:58,759 Speaker 1: Certainly it could happen. I don't know. 1103 00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:00,600 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think so, just because of the 1104 00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:02,959 Speaker 3: way that I mean, people have tried that before, right 1105 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:04,839 Speaker 3: in terms of like, oh I was justified in the crime. 1106 00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:07,359 Speaker 3: Usually the jury instructions are very narrow, so they're able 1107 00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:09,880 Speaker 3: to get around these. Yeah, the revolutionary time, they know 1108 00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:12,680 Speaker 3: how to go the FEDS and the cops. They know 1109 00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:15,240 Speaker 3: how to rig the system to make sure that stuff 1110 00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:17,160 Speaker 3: like that is not going to fly. But hey, look, 1111 00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:20,000 Speaker 3: maybe you're right, you know, speaking of that In terms 1112 00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:24,360 Speaker 3: of some of the questions surrounding Luigi Mangioni the Manifesto 1113 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:27,279 Speaker 3: in the media's relationship, We've got Ken Clippenstein standing by. 1114 00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:29,360 Speaker 3: He's going to talk to us about his decision to 1115 00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:32,960 Speaker 3: publish the manifesto and why other media organizations have decided 1116 00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:33,200 Speaker 3: not to. 1117 00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:34,160 Speaker 1: Let's get to it. 1118 00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:39,880 Speaker 3: Joining us now is independent journalist Ken Clippenstein. He's famous 1119 00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:43,480 Speaker 3: now for publishing the Luigi Mangioni Manifesto. Let's go and 1120 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:46,240 Speaker 3: put it up there on the screen on his substack, 1121 00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:50,960 Speaker 3: the only journalist to actually do so. So yesterday counterpoints 1122 00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,560 Speaker 3: it a good job breaking the manifesto down. So maybe Ken, 1123 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:55,600 Speaker 3: we can get into the decision of your decision to 1124 00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:59,319 Speaker 3: publish this manifesto and also what you discovered about the 1125 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:02,200 Speaker 3: mainstream met and why they decided not to publish it. 1126 00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:04,839 Speaker 11: Hey, guys, good to be with you. 1127 00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:09,040 Speaker 21: So what I learned in the course of reporting on 1128 00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:11,640 Speaker 21: this and obtaining it, I didn't realize at first that 1129 00:51:11,719 --> 00:51:14,120 Speaker 21: so many of these major media outlets, from The New 1130 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:19,719 Speaker 21: York Times, the NBC, ABC, the Washington Post had their 1131 00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:22,560 Speaker 21: own copies of it. We're sitting on it, we're quoting 1132 00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:25,360 Speaker 21: selectively from it, perfectly happy to do so, but for 1133 00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:29,000 Speaker 21: whatever reason, they weren't willing to publish it. And what 1134 00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:32,120 Speaker 21: I learned after speaking with friends and other contacts at 1135 00:51:32,120 --> 00:51:35,680 Speaker 21: these various outlets was that there was some pressure to 1136 00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:38,680 Speaker 21: report it, but that in the case of every one 1137 00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:41,200 Speaker 21: of those companies, senior management didn't want to. 1138 00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:45,560 Speaker 3: Interesting all right, So when you say senior management didn't 1139 00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:49,360 Speaker 3: want to, was it a management decision or there was 1140 00:51:49,360 --> 00:51:51,480 Speaker 3: some speculation there was some deal with the police. 1141 00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:54,480 Speaker 21: What can you tell us about that. Yeah, So there 1142 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:56,960 Speaker 21: are a couple of reasons that are cited. I think 1143 00:51:57,000 --> 00:51:59,920 Speaker 21: it's mainly an access problem, a problem of source capture, 1144 00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:03,080 Speaker 21: where you get this document from law enforcement, and if 1145 00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:05,920 Speaker 21: you look at the reporting that's out there that initially 1146 00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:08,759 Speaker 21: was paraphrasing it, and I said before quoting in some 1147 00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:11,400 Speaker 21: cases from it, it's almost always attributed to a senior 1148 00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:15,319 Speaker 21: law enforcement official. That probably means the FBI, and what 1149 00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:17,520 Speaker 21: I was told in the case of NBC, at least 1150 00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:20,480 Speaker 21: there was an explicit deal with law enforcement that we 1151 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:22,719 Speaker 21: give you this, you're not going to publish it. I 1152 00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:25,280 Speaker 21: don't know for certain that that's the case with other outlets. 1153 00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:29,280 Speaker 21: Yesterday I published a story based on internal chat records 1154 00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:31,800 Speaker 21: among the editorial staff on The New York Times in 1155 00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 21: which is said, we're not going to publish it, and 1156 00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:37,520 Speaker 21: they made explicit reference to the wishes of their sources. 1157 00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:41,839 Speaker 21: So I think there's a serious problem of source capture here, 1158 00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:44,960 Speaker 21: which in the case of my publishing, it didn't apply 1159 00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,560 Speaker 21: to me, but applied to basically all these major outlets. 1160 00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 21: So I think there's a really important critique of media here. 1161 00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:52,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, that is a thing that happens between and it's 1162 00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:55,040 Speaker 5: when you go, as Ken knows, is called going in 1163 00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:57,080 Speaker 5: the front door. You go in the front door of 1164 00:52:57,080 --> 00:53:00,560 Speaker 5: an agency. You're going right to the people basically, and. 1165 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:03,360 Speaker 4: You're saying, hey, do you have this manifesto? 1166 00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:03,920 Speaker 1: Can I have it? 1167 00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:06,840 Speaker 5: And when you go in the front door, they have 1168 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,400 Speaker 5: the leverage because then they can say, yeah, we do 1169 00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:11,239 Speaker 5: have it actually, and I will give it to you. 1170 00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:15,040 Speaker 5: But the condition is you can't quote these parts or 1171 00:53:15,040 --> 00:53:17,160 Speaker 5: you can't publish it in full, but you can paraphrase 1172 00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 5: or whatever. 1173 00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:18,920 Speaker 1: And then you're stuck. 1174 00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:22,880 Speaker 5: Okay, I can either you agree to these terms and 1175 00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 5: get something, or what you do is you go find 1176 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:28,680 Speaker 5: other sources, you go in back doors, or you go 1177 00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:33,279 Speaker 5: inside doors. What I was curious about there are a 1178 00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:35,680 Speaker 5: couple of times in the manifesto where it says indecipherable. 1179 00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:40,080 Speaker 5: Did you get a printed a print version of it 1180 00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:44,000 Speaker 5: and it already said indecipherable? Or could you yourself not 1181 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:45,200 Speaker 5: decipher the handwriting? 1182 00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:49,719 Speaker 21: So what law enforcement did was they were circulating their 1183 00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:52,520 Speaker 21: own copy of it because it's based on handwritten notes. 1184 00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:56,120 Speaker 1: May they typed up a version see exactly? So nobody 1185 00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:57,920 Speaker 1: has the original handwritten version. 1186 00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,880 Speaker 21: Yet I'm not sure that they don't have a photo 1187 00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:05,560 Speaker 21: of it some you know somewhere. But what was interesting 1188 00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:10,000 Speaker 21: about it was when law enforcement circulated this, it wasn't 1189 00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:12,600 Speaker 21: just the kind of senior national security reporters. It ended 1190 00:54:12,640 --> 00:54:14,480 Speaker 21: up being shared with a bunch of people at these outlets, 1191 00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:16,799 Speaker 21: I think, which I think undermines their whole argument that, 1192 00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:20,719 Speaker 21: you know, if people see this thing suddenly, like the 1193 00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 21: Manchurian candidate, there's going to be an activation. It's an 1194 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:26,360 Speaker 21: activation word that's just going to turn everyone into homicidal maniacs. Somehow, 1195 00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:28,400 Speaker 21: that doesn't apply to the media or their friends that 1196 00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:30,960 Speaker 21: they were sharing this stuff with, because I you know, 1197 00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:32,680 Speaker 21: I had heard that there were people not at all 1198 00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:36,040 Speaker 21: related to law enforcement or the story or national security 1199 00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:37,799 Speaker 21: that were just socially like, oh hey, check this out, 1200 00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:39,719 Speaker 21: you want this, And it's just the public. It's just 1201 00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:42,600 Speaker 21: the general public that can't see it. The media was 1202 00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:43,600 Speaker 21: all sharing with each other. 1203 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:46,719 Speaker 3: So what I'm curious with here, then, Ken is I 1204 00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:49,080 Speaker 3: know that you had some reporting about inside of New 1205 00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:52,719 Speaker 3: York Times also about them not publishing a photo of 1206 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:53,880 Speaker 3: Luigi MANGIONI. 1207 00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:54,960 Speaker 1: Can you tell us what's up with that? 1208 00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,640 Speaker 21: Yeah, so I got internal chat records of their editorial 1209 00:54:58,640 --> 00:55:02,040 Speaker 21: decision making, They had a for they had they had 1210 00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:04,880 Speaker 21: a directive from senior management that was sent out to 1211 00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:08,759 Speaker 21: the reporter saying, hey, let's quote dial down our use 1212 00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,720 Speaker 21: of photos of this guy, not not use a picture 1213 00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:15,360 Speaker 21: of his face in the In the statement I quoted 1214 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:18,040 Speaker 21: in the story said something like we're not sure about 1215 00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:21,040 Speaker 21: the ongoing newsworthiness of this or something. And then the 1216 00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:24,120 Speaker 21: next morning they have a picture of him being marched 1217 00:55:24,239 --> 00:55:26,720 Speaker 21: to his arraignment and it's just his back. 1218 00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,880 Speaker 11: He's completely it's just like his debt. It was comical 1219 00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:32,320 Speaker 11: and it was like so childish. 1220 00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 21: And I know that people at the Times are frustrated 1221 00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:36,920 Speaker 21: about this because again, something I want to stress when 1222 00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:40,400 Speaker 21: I critique the you know, major media, these are not monolists. 1223 00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:41,960 Speaker 21: There are people, there are good people in them that 1224 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,279 Speaker 21: do good work and that don't agree with, you know, 1225 00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:46,879 Speaker 21: the dictates of senior management. But in this case, that's 1226 00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:48,960 Speaker 21: what the Time said, and I think it relates to 1227 00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:50,680 Speaker 21: the exact same thing we're talking about a moment ago, 1228 00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:51,680 Speaker 21: which is source capture. 1229 00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:53,319 Speaker 11: Law enforcement doesn't like that. 1230 00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:54,960 Speaker 21: They want to control the narrative, and look at how 1231 00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:58,239 Speaker 21: they've quoted from this story and used it to paint 1232 00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:00,560 Speaker 21: a certain picture of this guy. I give you very 1233 00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:03,400 Speaker 21: CNN had a segment where they were like, yep. 1234 00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:03,640 Speaker 1: The. 1235 00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:07,400 Speaker 21: Manifesto, it gives you a really clear idea that this 1236 00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:11,040 Speaker 21: guy's nuts, he's got some really serious psychiatric issues. And 1237 00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:13,359 Speaker 21: then we're not going to tell you probably know that, 1238 00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:15,279 Speaker 21: and we're not going to give you a passage that 1239 00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:17,359 Speaker 21: illustrates that, but just trust us. 1240 00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:18,600 Speaker 11: That's what it shows. 1241 00:56:18,640 --> 00:56:22,239 Speaker 21: And so it's very beneficial to law enforcement to be 1242 00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 21: able to construct their own narrative and shape the public 1243 00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:28,560 Speaker 21: consciousness around what exactly happened when they don't give them 1244 00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:32,440 Speaker 21: the underlying documents. And that's the case now with the 1245 00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:35,640 Speaker 21: photograph too, because I think there are kind of two 1246 00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:38,760 Speaker 21: arguments mad tandem, one being that, oh, like I said before, 1247 00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:40,680 Speaker 21: the activation code is going to cause the public to 1248 00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:44,360 Speaker 21: become violent, which to me is just like the nineties 1249 00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:46,920 Speaker 21: debate about violent video games cause of shootings. You know, 1250 00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:49,840 Speaker 21: I don't find it very compelling, But you have to 1251 00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:52,920 Speaker 21: wonder if they even believe that, because in those same chats, 1252 00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:55,400 Speaker 21: well that might be the pretext, oh, you know, we 1253 00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:57,160 Speaker 21: care so much about public safety or whatever, which I 1254 00:56:57,200 --> 00:57:00,279 Speaker 21: think is problematic and self The reality is that they 1255 00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:02,600 Speaker 21: also have relationships with their sources and law enforcement that 1256 00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:04,719 Speaker 21: have their own whish is who they don't want to 1257 00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:05,600 Speaker 21: alienate to me. 1258 00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:07,759 Speaker 11: So those are kind of the two reasons that I saw. 1259 00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:10,400 Speaker 3: It seems really paternalistic in the age of Twitter, in 1260 00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:13,520 Speaker 3: an election where everybody was online, this idea that they 1261 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:16,080 Speaker 3: can control, like whether people see this guy's photo or not. 1262 00:57:16,360 --> 00:57:18,880 Speaker 1: Go on social media, it's everywhere. It's all over twit. 1263 00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:21,680 Speaker 3: You can go check his own profile, like who are 1264 00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:23,840 Speaker 3: we to tell you what not to check or whatever? 1265 00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:25,400 Speaker 3: Show's show you a photo of the guy. This is 1266 00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:26,680 Speaker 3: the photo that he put out there. 1267 00:57:26,760 --> 00:57:27,720 Speaker 1: Right. This is now. 1268 00:57:27,800 --> 00:57:31,160 Speaker 3: You know, maybe there's a bigger conversation about glorifying killers 1269 00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:32,680 Speaker 3: or not, but Ken, you and I have been here 1270 00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:34,560 Speaker 3: long enough to know that there are plenty of terrorists 1271 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:36,480 Speaker 3: and other people who have been front page on the 1272 00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:37,040 Speaker 3: New York Times. 1273 00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:40,000 Speaker 1: So what's up with this now? It's all about being selective. 1274 00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:41,640 Speaker 11: Yeah, exactly. 1275 00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:44,920 Speaker 21: And it just speaks to the ludicrous self egoism that 1276 00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:46,960 Speaker 21: these major outlets have that they think that, oh, we 1277 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:49,400 Speaker 21: didn't use the photo. Everybody time to go home. We 1278 00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 21: don't know what he looks like anyway. It's like, guys, 1279 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:54,520 Speaker 21: the Times hasn't had that kind of power in like decades, 1280 00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:56,200 Speaker 21: you know, like you're not that important. 1281 00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:59,760 Speaker 5: And what's interesting about that decision is that The Times 1282 00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:03,600 Speaker 5: in recent years has become and especially their editors, have 1283 00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:07,880 Speaker 5: become increasingly obsessed about traffic numbers, like in a way 1284 00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:10,280 Speaker 5: that they didn't used to be used to be. Everybody 1285 00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:12,960 Speaker 5: in the snake pit was fighting over getting on a one. 1286 00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:15,880 Speaker 5: Now now it's about the push alert in traffic numbers 1287 00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:18,800 Speaker 5: and hot image like that is going. 1288 00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:19,680 Speaker 1: To drive traffic. 1289 00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:22,520 Speaker 5: And so for them to cut against their own self 1290 00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:28,440 Speaker 5: interest is interesting because it suggests that there are these deeper, broader, 1291 00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:32,840 Speaker 5: more powerful interests at play here, Like what are you 1292 00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:36,440 Speaker 5: hearing anything about how The Times is directing or we're 1293 00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:40,000 Speaker 5: talking about guiding and framing the coverage itself, like because 1294 00:58:40,360 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 5: they're trying to grapple, I guess with this upsurge of 1295 00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:46,680 Speaker 5: support for him while pushing it down because of their 1296 00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:48,720 Speaker 5: own politics exactly. 1297 00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:51,280 Speaker 21: And I want to stress that directive came from the top. 1298 00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:53,080 Speaker 21: So it was a senior editor and he was saying, hey, 1299 00:58:53,120 --> 00:58:55,280 Speaker 21: we just got that. I don't remember what the exact words were, 1300 00:58:55,280 --> 00:58:57,480 Speaker 21: but we just got this from upstairs and then they 1301 00:58:57,520 --> 00:58:58,600 Speaker 21: just quoted a statement. 1302 00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:01,080 Speaker 11: So this is clearly coming from the leadership of the paper. 1303 00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:02,840 Speaker 21: I don't want to give people the impression that I 1304 00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:06,840 Speaker 21: just found some you know, random comment from some marginal person. 1305 00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:08,520 Speaker 11: This is the policy of the paper. 1306 00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:10,120 Speaker 21: And I would encourage people to go and check out 1307 00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:12,160 Speaker 21: on my subseat the exact quotes so they can see 1308 00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:15,960 Speaker 21: that this is something that's systemic and speaks to the concerns. 1309 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 21: I mean when you get to that, I can only speculate. 1310 00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:19,640 Speaker 21: I don't know what's going on in the you know, 1311 00:59:19,680 --> 00:59:21,760 Speaker 21: c suite of The New York Times, but I can 1312 00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:24,360 Speaker 21: see what's going on in the rest of major media 1313 00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:27,960 Speaker 21: on television and the public facing side, which is that 1314 00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:30,920 Speaker 21: they are extremely uncomfortable about all this and they'd rather 1315 00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:32,800 Speaker 21: just pretend it's not happening. I mean, in the case 1316 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:37,080 Speaker 21: of the in the case of the manifesto that I published, 1317 00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:40,920 Speaker 21: you know, very shortly after, the Daily Beast confirmed its 1318 00:59:40,960 --> 00:59:44,160 Speaker 21: authenticity based on their own law enforcement sources, as did 1319 00:59:45,280 --> 00:59:47,640 Speaker 21: a couple of other websites. None of the major media 1320 00:59:47,640 --> 00:59:49,120 Speaker 21: has said a word about it. And when I try 1321 00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:51,200 Speaker 21: to get them on the record to even just tell 1322 00:59:51,680 --> 00:59:53,960 Speaker 21: try to be responsible like, here's their side of the story. 1323 00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:56,320 Speaker 21: Here's why they said that they don't want to publish it. 1324 00:59:56,320 --> 00:59:59,919 Speaker 21: They wouldn't even respond, not one I contacted for major media. Wow, 1325 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:02,120 Speaker 21: think gets single or something. They won't even articulate a 1326 01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:03,680 Speaker 21: reason for why you're not allowed to see this. 1327 01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:06,320 Speaker 5: The Times published the entire Unibomber manifesto. 1328 01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:08,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I guess they're probably a little bit. 1329 01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:12,320 Speaker 3: Theoretically under under what was it? If I remember the circumstance, 1330 01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:13,960 Speaker 3: it was like he was like, if you don't publish it, 1331 01:00:13,960 --> 01:00:18,200 Speaker 3: then I'm going to attack somebody by the way. Yeah, 1332 01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:20,240 Speaker 3: but the irony is that that's ended up being his 1333 01:00:20,280 --> 01:00:22,160 Speaker 3: demise because the only reason he got caught is because 1334 01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:28,560 Speaker 3: his brother recognized the Yeah, exactly. So if anything, it's 1335 01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:31,000 Speaker 3: a justified I mean again, you know, if we could 1336 01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:33,600 Speaker 3: think back to the whole unibaber thing. Also, how funny 1337 01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:37,040 Speaker 3: is it that he four starred the Unibomber manifesto And 1338 01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:40,600 Speaker 3: let's all be honest, is manifesto is craped. It's a 1339 01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:44,000 Speaker 3: totally phoned in manifesto. You can get you could say 1340 01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:45,680 Speaker 3: a lot about ted, but he put a lot of 1341 01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:47,880 Speaker 3: thought into that thing. Okay, it was it was long 1342 01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:51,000 Speaker 3: it was a reasoned, especially volume one, Volume two, things 1343 01:00:51,000 --> 01:00:54,040 Speaker 3: get a little crap, a little weird. But you know, 1344 01:00:54,080 --> 01:00:56,680 Speaker 3: I think with this case Ken, in terms of other 1345 01:00:56,760 --> 01:00:59,880 Speaker 3: stories and other things that you're chasing with respect to that, 1346 01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:03,400 Speaker 3: you have found an extraordinary amount of support from the 1347 01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:06,080 Speaker 3: public for just telling people what they want to hear, 1348 01:01:06,120 --> 01:01:08,000 Speaker 3: which I think is great. You know, they want information, 1349 01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:09,920 Speaker 3: I'm not saying in a bad way, so like they 1350 01:01:09,920 --> 01:01:12,960 Speaker 3: want information, you're giving them the information. And instead these 1351 01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:16,640 Speaker 3: media outlets decide that they should be responsible for what 1352 01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:19,919 Speaker 3: other people get to hear and editorialize here and there. 1353 01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:21,880 Speaker 3: So can you just speak to that dynamic and how 1354 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:24,680 Speaker 3: it's actually helped your own substack now by doing this. 1355 01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:27,400 Speaker 21: Yeah, this whole thing that I regard as a pretext 1356 01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:30,760 Speaker 21: that oh, we're protecting the public safety and they say 1357 01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:32,440 Speaker 21: other things. Did they did this when I published the 1358 01:01:32,520 --> 01:01:35,920 Speaker 21: Vance Dossier as well, which is a very similar parallel 1359 01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:37,960 Speaker 21: case where all these outlets had it, they wouldn't publish it. 1360 01:01:38,160 --> 01:01:40,880 Speaker 21: They say things like, oh, it's not newsworthy, or hey, 1361 01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:43,200 Speaker 21: our paraphrase basically told you everything in there, so what 1362 01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:44,800 Speaker 21: do you need to see what's under it? 1363 01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:46,320 Speaker 11: For which there's two problems with. 1364 01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:48,560 Speaker 21: I mean, you know, the coverage is dominated by a 1365 01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:52,600 Speaker 21: certain type of you know, person in Washington or New 1366 01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:55,440 Speaker 21: York City, who, even if they're trying their best to 1367 01:01:55,440 --> 01:01:58,400 Speaker 21: give the public a sense of what's relevant to their 1368 01:01:58,400 --> 01:01:58,840 Speaker 21: lives in. 1369 01:01:58,880 --> 01:01:59,800 Speaker 11: How are they going to know. 1370 01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:02,200 Speaker 21: How is vulf Blitzer going to know what some guy 1371 01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:05,760 Speaker 21: in I live in Wisconsin, who is going to be like, oh, 1372 01:02:05,800 --> 01:02:07,200 Speaker 21: you know, this guy would be interested in that. He's 1373 01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:10,000 Speaker 21: going to have a Washington idea of what's interesting in it. 1374 01:02:10,320 --> 01:02:13,640 Speaker 21: So that's problematic in itself, But I think the bigger 1375 01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:16,760 Speaker 21: issue here is the fact that they think that they've 1376 01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:19,960 Speaker 21: sort of deputized themselves into being these public safety officers. 1377 01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:22,440 Speaker 21: They're going to decide what's safe for the public, if 1378 01:02:22,440 --> 01:02:24,600 Speaker 21: that's even what they believe, if it's not just deals 1379 01:02:24,600 --> 01:02:27,200 Speaker 21: that they've cut with law enforcement, like we were talking 1380 01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:31,440 Speaker 21: about before, and so in the case of in the 1381 01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:32,800 Speaker 21: case of all this, I just wish there was some 1382 01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:35,200 Speaker 21: kind of public discussion about they never articulate any of 1383 01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:38,400 Speaker 21: their policies around these things, including around mass shooters and 1384 01:02:38,760 --> 01:02:41,520 Speaker 21: whatever their policy is on publication of photos. 1385 01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:42,920 Speaker 11: There's just no discussion. 1386 01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:44,920 Speaker 21: It's just kind of pretend it didn't happen, which is 1387 01:02:44,960 --> 01:02:47,560 Speaker 21: precisely what's happened to the manifesto. Not one of these 1388 01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:50,360 Speaker 21: outlets has even I have messages I didn't publish these 1389 01:02:50,760 --> 01:02:53,640 Speaker 21: saying yes, we know this is authentic. That's the real thing, guys, 1390 01:02:53,680 --> 01:02:55,400 Speaker 21: just to give you a heads up, and they link 1391 01:02:55,480 --> 01:02:58,600 Speaker 21: to my sub sect. They won't acknowledge that publicly. They're 1392 01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:01,880 Speaker 21: just all pretending it didn't happen. It's very strange, so stupid. 1393 01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:04,520 Speaker 5: Well, your your substacks blowing up as a result of it, 1394 01:03:04,560 --> 01:03:05,680 Speaker 5: and that's that's great. 1395 01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:06,400 Speaker 1: Great to see. 1396 01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:10,000 Speaker 5: Great great scoop Ken, thanks so much for joining us 1397 01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:12,720 Speaker 5: as Ken Clippenstein dot com.
