WEBVTT - I Warned You!!!! 0:00:11.039 --> 0:00:15.320 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:15.400 --> 0:00:20.040 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe, Katty Armstrong and 0:00:20.160 --> 0:00:33.640 Jetty and he arms get it the Frum studio scene 0:00:34.360 --> 0:00:37.479 SEEZ and your It's a dimly lit room deep within 0:00:37.600 --> 0:00:40.760 the bowels of the Armstrong and Getty Communications compound. Is 0:00:40.800 --> 0:00:45.040 it already Thursday? The short weeks hit fly by Today 0:00:45.080 --> 0:00:48.920 we're under the tutelage of our general manager. I warned you, 0:00:49.680 --> 0:00:54.760 I warned you. I warned you. I warned you as 0:00:54.800 --> 0:00:58.040 our general That's why wait, I've warned you. I'll tell 0:00:58.120 --> 0:01:01.600 you what I warned you about after I get done 0:01:01.640 --> 0:01:07.120 saying I warned you, our general manager this morning. The 0:01:07.280 --> 0:01:13.360 Court of International Trade. Oh, only one major radio show, 0:01:13.360 --> 0:01:17.200 Slide Podcast, told you about the Court of International Trade 0:01:17.400 --> 0:01:20.120 a week or two ago. You probably tuned out because 0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:22.240 it was a fairly dull segment buyers standards. But it 0:01:22.280 --> 0:01:28.040 was necessary. It was dullassary, It was vegetable, dull, yet necessary, 0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:35.039 dul dulassary. The Court of International Trade has said, no, 0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:39.160 the President doesn't have emergency powers to levy all these tariffs. 0:01:39.160 --> 0:01:43.520 That all is done. Whoa way to hang on the agreements, 0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:47.199 does sum in progress some allegedly what all the tariff 0:01:47.240 --> 0:01:50.240 stuff is off. First of all, we got to use 0:01:50.280 --> 0:01:52.440 the term dolossary more often. We might even have to 0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:55.360 set aside a segment a day now, the dolossary segment. 0:01:55.400 --> 0:01:59.360 It's dull, but it's very important. As an American, you 0:01:59.360 --> 0:02:02.160 should know this exactly. Let's consider that it's the eating 0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:04.560 your vegetables. Finish that and then we can have a 0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:10.079 cookie or something. Yeah, two things on that one. From 0:02:10.160 --> 0:02:13.119 the very beginning, it's been astounding to me that one man, 0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:19.400 not Trump, just any one man could rattle world economy 0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:23.200 that way with his own personal decisions and then wake 0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:24.799 up in the morning and think, nah, it should be 0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:27.720 one hundred and five percent or never mind. I mean, 0:02:28.240 --> 0:02:30.800 one guy being able to do that just doesn't seem 0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:34.200 like the right system periodically, given the fact that a 0:02:34.320 --> 0:02:37.040 tariff is a tax, plain and simple. It's attacks on imports. 0:02:37.520 --> 0:02:43.119 And then secondly, Congress has the right to tax, though 0:02:43.120 --> 0:02:45.280 they have like virtually all of their other rights and 0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:48.760 duties given them over to the executive branch. Because they're 0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:50.640 a bunch of cowards. They are cards. They don't want 0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:53.920 to take a vote on anything. The other part being, hey, 0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:58.880 international Trade Court, with your three judges, what were you 0:02:59.080 --> 0:03:01.440 busy on the left the last two months? That was 0:03:01.520 --> 0:03:05.200 more important than this? Why did it take care get 0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:08.720 this long to get around to this? They were getting 0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:12.400 their ducks in a row, good American made ducks, by 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:16.920 the way, not for it. You can't get parts for 0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:18.680 them now. They stick to the bottom of the pond, 0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:24.239 right exactly, their toxic Yeah. The Court of International Trade 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:28.640 blocked one of the Trump administration's most aud assertions of 0:03:28.680 --> 0:03:31.919 executive power under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act in 0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:34.520 nineteen seventy seven, and they said, in short, the Court 0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:37.320 does not read the Emergency Act to confer such unbounded 0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:40.720 authority and sets aside the challenge tariffs imposed there under. 0:03:41.360 --> 0:03:44.040 That goes now to the circuit courts of appeals and 0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:45.920 then the Supreme Court. This is not some sort of 0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:50.840 you know, it's it's the first and last Court of 0:03:51.080 --> 0:03:54.120 International Trade. It can be appealed and certainly will be. 0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:58.400 Of course, the media, mainstream media, and they're covering of 0:03:58.440 --> 0:04:01.480 this is all about Trump didn't get what he wants, 0:04:01.680 --> 0:04:04.400 So we're happy with this court ruling, even though the 0:04:04.400 --> 0:04:07.600 mainstream media is left and lefties have been talking about 0:04:07.640 --> 0:04:10.640 tariffs as they answer to everything my whole life. So 0:04:10.720 --> 0:04:13.839 it's kind of a reverse thingy they don't they care 0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:17.919 more about Trump losing than the things that they generally 0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:20.920 like or don't like. And then also the other end 0:04:20.920 --> 0:04:23.839 of it is in case well and every time Biden 0:04:23.880 --> 0:04:28.080 trampled on the Constitution, they celebrated it, right, And the 0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:30.000 other end of it is, in case you didn't know this, 0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:34.560 almost every conserve real conservative that I like didn't like 0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:37.440 the idea of a president being able to have this 0:04:37.560 --> 0:04:41.520 much power. Oh right, yeah, I mean, and y'all should agree. 0:04:41.680 --> 0:04:43.880 Can you imagine, because there will be a Democrat in 0:04:43.880 --> 0:04:46.960 the White House at some point or another party because 0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:50.000 the Democratic Party is in terrible shape. But and if 0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:55.240 they wield this sort of you know, crazy executive power 0:04:55.400 --> 0:04:59.800 to tax and just throw economies into turmoil, I mean, 0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:04.279 President AOC. Jack has brought up this example before. President 0:05:04.320 --> 0:05:09.080 AOC could declare income inequality a national emergency in the 0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:13.240 way that Trump has declared trade imbalances as a national emergency, 0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:18.480 and then President AOC could dictate enormous changes to the 0:05:18.520 --> 0:05:21.240 economy and trade practices and whatever in the name of 0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:26.560 income equality, or all kinds of things you would hate 0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:30.240 around a climate emergency. Yeah, you get a bad hurricane 0:05:30.680 --> 0:05:33.680 claim that's proof of climate change and all kinds of 0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:37.159 crazy rules and laws, or the school shooting and you 0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:40.240 decide clearly a national emergency, all kinds of things we 0:05:40.279 --> 0:05:42.200 got to do on taking away guns. You're right, don't 0:05:42.240 --> 0:05:45.080 it right? There's lots of easy examples from the left 0:05:45.400 --> 0:05:47.080 you could use if you're going to be okay with 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:53.039 presidents and executive orders and using emergencies for their justification. Yeah, 0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:54.760 Trump's doing a lot of great stuff that I love. 0:05:54.800 --> 0:05:56.480 I've tried to make that very very clear. But we 0:05:56.520 --> 0:05:58.920 had a lot yesterday, a very long list yesterday if 0:05:58.920 --> 0:06:03.920 you missed it, but Trump, I'm sorry. Oh, the founding 0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:10.120 Papas were absolutely right. They knew you, not you necessarily, 0:06:10.160 --> 0:06:15.160 but you know, people they want a king. They want 0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:18.440 a king because they think, wow, a king could really 0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:20.479 get the stuff done that I want them to do. 0:06:21.000 --> 0:06:24.200 But here's the problem. And if I have to tell 0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:26.800 you the problem, you should go back to I don't know, 0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:29.080 fifth grade civics class that or read a little bit 0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:32.240 of history or something. That sort of executive power is abused. 0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:37.120 Let's see what percentage of the time one hundred. It's tempting, 0:06:37.160 --> 0:06:41.160 but you don't want it again. I ask, hey, International 0:06:41.200 --> 0:06:44.919 Court of Trade, Court of International Trade? How did this 0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:47.360 not r I as I refer to it. How did 0:06:47.400 --> 0:06:49.720 this not rise to the top of your to do 0:06:50.279 --> 0:06:54.440 box above? Wait? No, no, we got to decide whether 0:06:54.600 --> 0:06:59.720 Belgian yarn falls under the rules were American yarn? No? 0:07:00.720 --> 0:07:04.440 Pass on all that stuff and get to the global 0:07:04.640 --> 0:07:07.400 trade has been changed for all of history or not. 0:07:08.360 --> 0:07:10.800 But anyway, you're just gonna pee all over Belgian yarn. 0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:13.840 Let's see it. That's why you're not on the Court 0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:17.240 of International Trade. I'm looking forward to it. Just came 0:07:17.280 --> 0:07:20.160 across this. I just saw our friend Tim Sandifer retweeted it. 0:07:20.160 --> 0:07:24.800 We have Tim Sanderfer, a great legal mind, on the 0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:27.280 show later this morning to talk about a number of things, 0:07:27.280 --> 0:07:31.760 including Supreme Court releases their most controversial rulings in June, 0:07:31.760 --> 0:07:33.560 which starts here in a couple of days, and so 0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:36.440 we got that to look forward to. Any who. He 0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:41.000 retweeted a George Will column from today from Washington Post 0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:44.240 that says the Trump administration is the most progressive in 0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:48.280 US history in terms of its politics. So maybe We'll 0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:50.440 take a look wi to see what that means. I 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:52.400 don't know what that means. From the headline, we should 0:07:52.400 --> 0:07:55.160 start the show officially. I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe Getty 0:07:55.280 --> 0:07:58.320 on this it is Thursday, May twenty ninth, year twenty 0:07:58.320 --> 0:08:01.080 twenty five, or Armstrong and getting with this program. I 0:08:01.160 --> 0:08:04.640 think he probably just means using aggressive executive power to 0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:09.360 reshape the country in one particular, you know vision. All right, 0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:11.360 let's speak in the show officially now. According to FCC 0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:14.240 rules and regulations, lay in truth bombs on you one 0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:17.440 after another. Here we go at Mark, like to stay 0:08:17.480 --> 0:08:20.720 on topic here, But squirrel? Squirrel? Where squirrel? Riley Green's like, 0:08:20.880 --> 0:08:23.480 who invited Rocky? He can get in, he can get out, 0:08:23.480 --> 0:08:25.280 he can go wherever he wants. Oh, look at that, 0:08:25.600 --> 0:08:28.240 he's in the bullpen with the guys down there. Yeah 0:08:28.280 --> 0:08:31.120 he is, Well, what's Tyler halting? Come? Everybody? 0:08:31.120 --> 0:08:31.200 All? 0:08:32.040 --> 0:08:34.080 Tyler gets left, He's and Wright he's out. But not 0:08:34.120 --> 0:08:38.960 squirrels and a squirrel in the field at a baseball game. 0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:44.040 That was our opening clip. Delightful, absolutely so. Tariff policy 0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:47.199 and obscure court rulings and squirrels on baseball face. That's 0:08:47.200 --> 0:08:51.640 the Armstrong and Getty show. Squirrel you know you got 0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:55.480 one hundred and sixty two damn games right based on 0:08:55.559 --> 0:09:00.319 the field, It's right, exactly need more squirrels. You know what, 0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:04.200 Chuck's beavers, whatever, any sort of and looks like a 0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:07.760 giraffe is running across centerfield. Will that thing can really move? Well, 0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:11.559 it would be awesome in a boring late May game 0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:17.040 that is meaningless a giraffe anything? Or or how about streakers? 0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:20.600 Whatever happened to streakers? Streak? We're surrounded by porn in 0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:22.959 the modern world. Whatever happened to drop and trow and 0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:24.760 running around a base? You know what I think it is? 0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:28.040 I remember from the seventies streakers they were always very fit. 0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:31.800 I think we're all too fat. And what's the point. Oh, 0:09:31.800 --> 0:09:36.280 there's a naked person porn everywhere. You're right, it's not shocking. 0:09:36.320 --> 0:09:37.880 You're right about that. So we got to get to 0:09:37.920 --> 0:09:40.560 some headlines coming up. We got mail bag this hour, 0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:42.959 more news of the day. That is a giant story 0:09:43.040 --> 0:09:45.600 that for the most part, the whole tariff thing is 0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:52.400 over TFN. But I suspect the appeals and Supreme courts 0:09:52.440 --> 0:09:56.600 will uphold the ruling of the he scrolls down, reminding 0:09:56.679 --> 0:10:00.240 himself Court of International Trade. I am very unhappy be 0:10:00.559 --> 0:10:04.360 with how much glee so much of the media is 0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:08.560 taking in Elon Musk stepping away from his government role. 0:10:09.000 --> 0:10:14.160 That's not good. It's not good. Yay, he failed. What 0:10:15.400 --> 0:10:19.719 why are you happy about? Simultaneously, and this shows the 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:25.200 depth of their stupidity and hypocrisy, Simultaneously they're thrilled to 0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:28.319 report he has problems with the big beautiful bill. Right, 0:10:28.559 --> 0:10:31.880 what are those problems, morons? It's that the government has 0:10:31.920 --> 0:10:35.200 bloated and overspends, which you've been pushing your entire careers. 0:10:35.400 --> 0:10:39.000 But no, now you're happy because it's criticizing Trump. Seriously, 0:10:39.240 --> 0:10:43.840 these people have the intelligence of goldfish. I think. More importantly, 0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:46.560 they have the integrity of goldfish. Well, goldfish might be 0:10:46.679 --> 0:10:50.040 very high integrity. I don't actually know. I see your point, though, 0:10:50.080 --> 0:10:53.360 they have little or no integrity compared to gold vis. 0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:56.720 Guess whatever animal metaphor you prefer. Okay, so we got 0:10:56.760 --> 0:10:57.280 lots of the ways. 0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:00.160 Stay here, Hey, somebody's run out on the field, some 0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:02.839 goofball and a half and a red shirt. Now he 0:11:02.960 --> 0:11:05.320 takes off the shirt. He's running down the middle by 0:11:05.360 --> 0:11:08.199 the fifty he's at the thirty. He's bear chested and 0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:11.360 banging his chest. Now he runs the opposite away, he 0:11:11.480 --> 0:11:13.400 runs with the fifty, he runs the forty. 0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:16.280 The guy is drunk. But there he goes there twenty. 0:11:16.440 --> 0:11:18.400 They're chasing him. They're not gonna get him. 0:11:18.400 --> 0:11:21.960 Breathing his arms, bear chested, somebody's topping there. 0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:24.160 Here comes the blue coke. Oh they got him. 0:11:24.200 --> 0:11:26.959 Here comes the Oh they tackle him at the forty 0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:27.480 yard line. 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:34.120 Oh, that was the most exciting thing that happened tonight. 0:11:34.160 --> 0:11:35.880 I'd tell you what. That was a great call on 0:11:35.960 --> 0:11:39.600 your pump. That was a great call. No, man, he 0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:43.440 deserves a seat at the right hand of God for 0:11:43.679 --> 0:11:46.960 that alone. Presidential Medal of Freedom. That's my suggestion. Great 0:11:47.000 --> 0:12:00.000 stay here. The last living grandson of President John Tyler 0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:04.000 has died, Yes he has. The reason that is significant 0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:07.240 is that has often been used as an example of 0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:12.160 how few generations you can go back in time, as 0:12:12.200 --> 0:12:17.719 his grandfather was born in seventeen ninety, you know, at 0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:21.120 the time of George Washington of the United States, was 0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:27.079 born when George Washington was president, and his grandson, last 0:12:27.120 --> 0:12:30.079 grandson just died. Doesn't take many generations to go really 0:12:30.120 --> 0:12:33.440 far back in time, right, especially if you've got a 0:12:33.440 --> 0:12:37.920 family that knocks out kids really really old, which is 0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:40.160 what happened, and it has him a little bit later but 0:12:40.360 --> 0:12:43.400 in life than normal. But yeah, you can jump back 0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:46.960 pretty fast. It's interesting. Yeah, the point certainly remains. Although 0:12:47.320 --> 0:12:52.920 in the case of the Tyler family, President Tyler himself 0:12:53.000 --> 0:12:56.800 was sixty three when he had a son, and that 0:12:56.960 --> 0:13:00.839 son was seventy five when he had a son. Really, Okay, 0:13:00.840 --> 0:13:04.600 well this is an extreme example, then yes, because I 0:13:04.679 --> 0:13:09.000 consider having a kid at seventy five damn near criminal. 0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:14.680 Well that is seventy five's literally three generations. So dude 0:13:14.880 --> 0:13:17.640 himself took up three generations, so we are still a 0:13:17.679 --> 0:13:21.040 young country. The point remains, but it's not quite as 0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:26.240 amazing as it sounds. That's a decent point. Taking the 0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:31.480 magic out of things, that's what I do. No, that's 0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:34.800 not interesting. And here's magic out of things. No, that's 0:13:34.840 --> 0:13:37.720 not funny. And here's why. No, you shouldn't be happy. 0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:40.120 And here's why I'm strong and getty. Taking the magic 0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:42.320 out of things. He heard a headline that fills you 0:13:42.360 --> 0:13:47.360 with joy or awe, here's why you're wrong, stomping the 0:13:47.520 --> 0:13:53.520 magic out of life. I'm strong in Getty Show. Speaking 0:13:53.559 --> 0:13:57.000 of Witch, here's your first headline. AI could wipe out 0:13:57.040 --> 0:14:00.400 half of all entry level, white colored jobs and spy 0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:04.240 unemployment by ten to twenty percent within five years. Warren's 0:14:04.280 --> 0:14:10.079 the CEO of AI Giant Anthropic. Yeah, man, I didn't read. 0:14:10.120 --> 0:14:14.000 There's a piece in the New Yorker where a leading 0:14:14.240 --> 0:14:16.960 AI expert who's on the side of it's not gonna 0:14:16.960 --> 0:14:19.160 be near as big a deal as you think writes 0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:22.120 an essay, and then a leading AI expert who says 0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:25.960 this is going to change everything. Hold on, buckle up, 0:14:26.360 --> 0:14:28.280 writes an essay. And I haven't read it yet. I 0:14:28.320 --> 0:14:31.960 guess it's it's it's pretty pretty well thought out on 0:14:32.000 --> 0:14:35.160 both sides. But one point I heard the other day 0:14:35.240 --> 0:14:38.800 is one out of ten workers does some sort of 0:14:39.040 --> 0:14:43.920 driving job. One out of ten, So whether truck drivers, Uber, 0:14:44.920 --> 0:14:49.560 you know, Amazon delivery, just all kinds of different things. Bus. Yeah. 0:14:49.600 --> 0:14:50.960 I could go on and on, but you could probably 0:14:51.000 --> 0:14:55.560 use your own imagination driving. I mean that alone, if 0:14:55.600 --> 0:14:59.320 self driving comes along, you disrupt ten percent of jobs, 0:14:59.520 --> 0:15:02.720 that would be huge, and it's going to be significantly 0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:06.160 more than just driving. So this chap told Axios that 0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:08.840 companies and the government must stop sugar coating the threat 0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:11.560 and prepare for mass disruption and tech law and finance. 0:15:11.720 --> 0:15:13.480 As my kid is halfway through law school, or a 0:15:13.520 --> 0:15:15.360 third of the way, most people are unaware of this 0:15:15.400 --> 0:15:19.200 is about to happen, he said. It sounds crazy. Another headline, 0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:23.760 Marco Rubio, Secretary of State among other duties, announced last 0:15:23.920 --> 0:15:27.480 evening that the US will begin revoking visas of Chinese students, 0:15:27.520 --> 0:15:30.200 including those with connections to the Chinese Communist Party. You're 0:15:30.200 --> 0:15:34.080 studying in critical fields. I know this is headlines and 0:15:34.120 --> 0:15:36.560 we're not supposed to go deep on these, but back 0:15:36.600 --> 0:15:39.280 to the AI thing briefly. It just was just thinking, 0:15:39.320 --> 0:15:42.160 ruminating about it. If it's going to disrupt the entire world, yeah, 0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:46.400 we can take a minute. It's just ruminating while you 0:15:46.440 --> 0:15:50.240 were talking. So are people who have like school age 0:15:50.280 --> 0:15:54.440 kids like I do. Ten years from now, are twenty 0:15:54.480 --> 0:15:56.600 something kids going to be living in our house as 0:15:56.640 --> 0:15:59.000 we all just try to figure out the way the 0:15:59.040 --> 0:16:02.640 new world works and what they're gonna do or how 0:16:02.640 --> 0:16:05.160 they're gonna do it, or what government program is going 0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:07.800 to pay them to stay home or oh my god, 0:16:08.400 --> 0:16:12.560 there is a significant chance that that is indeed, we will. 0:16:12.800 --> 0:16:16.320 Holy crap. And by significant, I don't mean and I'm 0:16:16.360 --> 0:16:19.320 not an expert in the field obviously, but by significant, 0:16:19.360 --> 0:16:23.880 I don't mean like ten percent. I mean like forty 0:16:24.440 --> 0:16:28.800 re emphasizing that the actual experts differ in the timeline 0:16:28.840 --> 0:16:31.680 on this, but there is a decent chunk of them 0:16:31.720 --> 0:16:35.600 that think it's coming really soon. Yeah. Yeah. As we 0:16:35.680 --> 0:16:37.920 mentioned earlier, if you're just tuning in the US Court 0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:41.440 of International Trade, that is a thing blocked Trump from 0:16:41.480 --> 0:16:45.320 imposing all of his more severe tariffs on imports from 0:16:45.360 --> 0:16:49.040 countries like China and Mexico. Canada Justice Apartment says it'll peel. 0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:50.760 It goes up to the circuit course and then the 0:16:51.040 --> 0:16:53.400 Supreme Court, But for now, all the big tariff stuff 0:16:53.440 --> 0:16:56.720 is off. It is off. Another headline that I like 0:16:56.880 --> 0:16:59.520 is it looks like Trump told net and Yahoo know, 0:16:59.640 --> 0:17:01.760 we ain't going to help you bomb Iran, and don't 0:17:01.760 --> 0:17:04.240 you bomb Iran because we're close to a piece deal 0:17:04.640 --> 0:17:07.439 and he waved off Netan Yaho nuts. Whether or not 0:17:07.640 --> 0:17:11.200 Israel acts alone, we don't know, And whether we are 0:17:11.240 --> 0:17:13.480 indeed close to a piece deal, it's tough to say, 0:17:13.480 --> 0:17:16.280 because Trump usually comes off very positive. Yeah. No, doubt 0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:17.560 about that. We got a lot more. I hope you 0:17:17.560 --> 0:17:21.719 can stay here, Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:27.800 But the paper itself, she was citing real books, but 0:17:27.840 --> 0:17:30.760 the quotes did not exist. The page numbers were the 0:17:31.440 --> 0:17:33.600 citing page seven hundred in the book only had three 0:17:33.680 --> 0:17:34.280 hundred pages. 0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:38.760 So that's a professor on the lead with Jake Tapper 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:41.600 on CNN talking about a student who used a AI 0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:45.280 on their paper. Well, that's that makes the news. I 0:17:45.320 --> 0:17:48.159 have a feeling that here at the end of the 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:51.800 school year about eighty to ninety percent of papers have 0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:56.640 at least used AI for something, if not a lot 0:17:56.720 --> 0:17:58.960 of the paper. I would be shocked if that wasn't 0:17:58.960 --> 0:18:00.959 the case. Well, I think he'd be a fool if 0:18:01.000 --> 0:18:04.679 you didn't use it for a list of good sources 0:18:04.880 --> 0:18:08.000 and or proposed structure for the paper. I'm in the 0:18:08.040 --> 0:18:10.760 habit thanks to you bringing it up now, of I 0:18:10.800 --> 0:18:12.840 go to it before I go to Google for most things, 0:18:12.920 --> 0:18:16.120 and it is so good and thorough, it's just absolutely amazing. 0:18:16.200 --> 0:18:17.800 I've got it on the front page of my phone 0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:19.840 now because it's my go to if I got a 0:18:19.920 --> 0:18:22.200 question about anything. It's just so good at getting there. 0:18:24.119 --> 0:18:26.199 But to that point of cheating. You brought this up 0:18:26.280 --> 0:18:31.400 last week, this hilarious story of this Harvard professor writing 0:18:31.400 --> 0:18:36.080 a paper about dishonesty in which she stole and or 0:18:36.119 --> 0:18:39.000 made up facts. She did both. I'm sorry, I must quittle. 0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:42.320 She is one of the leading scholars in the field. 0:18:42.680 --> 0:18:47.760 This is multiple major projects that have attracted huge attention 0:18:47.920 --> 0:18:51.400 through the years she was making. This came out today. 0:18:51.880 --> 0:18:58.400 She was making at Harvard Francesca Gino a million dollars 0:18:58.480 --> 0:19:01.960 a year. She was one of their highest paid faculty. 0:19:02.080 --> 0:19:04.200 She was a giant in the field. She was making 0:19:04.240 --> 0:19:07.120 a million dollars a year as a behavioral scientist at 0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:13.000 Harvard Business School, and she got fired for fabricating data 0:19:13.520 --> 0:19:19.280 on her studies focused on dishonesty, which is just too much. 0:19:19.320 --> 0:19:26.440 A million dollars a year, These freaking frauds. Yeah, yeah, well, 0:19:26.440 --> 0:19:29.359 and she's she's counter student claiming all sorts of stuff. 0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:32.800 But you've got these rogue rogues, is that the right word. 0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:37.760 These crusading scholars who go through all sorts of scholarship, 0:19:38.320 --> 0:19:44.119 and they use algorithmic analysis of the data to find 0:19:44.160 --> 0:19:46.760 suspicious patterns, and when they find it, they dig into 0:19:46.800 --> 0:19:51.560 it further and they've identified all sorts of fraudulent academia 0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:56.480 or academic work. You know, you combine that with the 0:19:57.359 --> 0:20:01.399 utter ridiculousness of the so called soft sciences, as James 0:20:01.480 --> 0:20:05.200 Lindsay and Helen Pluckrowse and Peter Bogosien pointed out famously 0:20:05.240 --> 0:20:08.800 a few years ago, how much well, okay, I'm sorry. 0:20:08.920 --> 0:20:14.000 And then to finish the delicious stew of stupid, you 0:20:14.080 --> 0:20:18.120 combine that with all the woke crap that's being taught 0:20:18.160 --> 0:20:23.160 on campuses, the federal subsidies to higher education, which has 0:20:23.160 --> 0:20:28.000 made it suffocatingly expensive. I mean, our university system could 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:30.240 not be more diseased. And it used to be the 0:20:30.320 --> 0:20:33.959 envy of the world. Man, Harvard is to fallen in 0:20:34.080 --> 0:20:36.960 terms of the way people think about Harvard a lot 0:20:37.440 --> 0:20:41.080 in the last five to ten years, for a whole 0:20:41.080 --> 0:20:44.960 bunch of different reasons. This is the first professor that's 0:20:45.119 --> 0:20:48.760 with tenure that's been fired since the forties. That alone 0:20:48.880 --> 0:20:50.760 is probably a problem. You're gonna tell me there's not 0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:56.680 one professor in the last eighty years that has deserved 0:20:56.680 --> 0:21:00.760 to be fired. Okay. I think there's it's a great 0:21:01.040 --> 0:21:06.640 truth there, and it's still forming in my head. Harvard 0:21:06.680 --> 0:21:10.520 has gone from a place that achieved greatness because it 0:21:10.560 --> 0:21:14.960 was so academically rigorous, to a place that has preserved 0:21:14.960 --> 0:21:19.359 its greatness by pretending nothing's wrong. So I think in 0:21:19.400 --> 0:21:21.680 the years that built Harvard, which is like the year 0:21:21.800 --> 0:21:27.119 sixteen eighty on, they would have heaved professors out for 0:21:27.600 --> 0:21:31.400 being fraudulent or dishonest right and left. That's how they 0:21:31.440 --> 0:21:35.479 became great. But now that they are great, to protect 0:21:35.520 --> 0:21:39.760 that greatness, it's another facet or it's like a tangent 0:21:39.920 --> 0:21:43.840 to the iron law of bureaucracy. Harvard is now a 0:21:43.920 --> 0:21:47.960 giant self protecting bureaucracy. The vast majority of people there 0:21:48.480 --> 0:21:50.600 do not get up in the morning with the aim 0:21:50.640 --> 0:21:53.080 of pursuing academic excellence. They get up in the morning 0:21:53.240 --> 0:21:58.520 with the aim of protecting Harvard. I know this. First 0:21:58.520 --> 0:22:00.480 of all, this is hurtful to sever of people. I 0:22:00.480 --> 0:22:03.919 know I hope aren't listening, but and I know what 0:22:03.960 --> 0:22:07.280 their response would be. I gotta believe the vast majority 0:22:07.359 --> 0:22:13.320 of published papers are crap, useless crap that's only for 0:22:13.520 --> 0:22:17.560 each other, and nobody reads we know statistically that's true. 0:22:17.680 --> 0:22:20.439 Nobody ever cites or reads them. It's just it's like 0:22:20.480 --> 0:22:26.040 a it's like an internal make it justify each other's 0:22:26.080 --> 0:22:32.159 existence organization that they've built. Correct. Yeah, well, you're so 0:22:32.320 --> 0:22:35.080 fond of good Heart's law, speaking of the great laws 0:22:35.080 --> 0:22:38.879 that govern the universe, where if a measure becomes a standard, 0:22:38.920 --> 0:22:41.000 it ceases to be it ceases to be valid as 0:22:41.040 --> 0:22:43.000 a measure. Yeah. Well, if I've got to publish what 0:22:43.040 --> 0:22:47.040 happened for papers a year? I have gone from a 0:22:47.040 --> 0:22:49.639 guy who published papers because they ought to be published 0:22:49.880 --> 0:22:52.199 because there's good research and data and people should know 0:22:52.240 --> 0:22:55.040 this stuff too. Ah crap, I gotta do four papers, 0:22:55.080 --> 0:22:57.600 all right? What am I gonna do this week? But 0:22:57.760 --> 0:23:01.439 this particular paper that one launched her getting investigated and 0:23:01.480 --> 0:23:07.800 losing her million dollar a year job. She had done 0:23:07.840 --> 0:23:12.360 a study claiming that requiring people to sign an honesty 0:23:12.400 --> 0:23:15.920 pledge at the beginning of a form, rather than the end, 0:23:16.000 --> 0:23:19.080 boosted honest responses, which I actually think probably is true. 0:23:20.160 --> 0:23:23.960 You made me say again, so have you ever I've 0:23:23.960 --> 0:23:25.800 filled out tons of papers. I'm sure you have at 0:23:25.800 --> 0:23:27.960 the end where you swear that everything you just said 0:23:28.040 --> 0:23:32.040 was true. Oh yeah, okay, putting that at the beginning 0:23:32.040 --> 0:23:35.080 of the of the form makes it more likely or honest. 0:23:35.680 --> 0:23:38.440 I'll but that's true. That makes sense to me, makes 0:23:38.440 --> 0:23:40.040 perfect sense. How doing you do it at the end 0:23:40.160 --> 0:23:45.320 is kind of odd? Actually, yeah, yeah, she a number 0:23:45.320 --> 0:23:49.080 of her studies were really interesting in thought provoking. They're 0:23:49.080 --> 0:23:55.120 about dishonesty and and you know, I read the descriptions 0:23:55.200 --> 0:23:58.800 of them and thought, wow, that's that's really disappointing that 0:23:58.840 --> 0:24:00.600 she may have faked up the dad, because that's a 0:24:00.640 --> 0:24:06.320 really important revelation about humankind. But also it's also kind 0:24:06.320 --> 0:24:10.280 of funny though, as we were just saying, these papers 0:24:10.359 --> 0:24:14.040 they disappear into the world of justifying each other's existences. 0:24:14.080 --> 0:24:16.359 It doesn't mean anything to the rest of the humanity. 0:24:16.680 --> 0:24:18.880 So the fact that you get fired for you know, 0:24:19.000 --> 0:24:22.920 copying somebody else's who cares. I mean, ultimately, it doesn't 0:24:22.960 --> 0:24:25.200 make any difference unless you're gonna tear the whole thing down, 0:24:25.240 --> 0:24:27.720 which I'd be all for. And to remake a point 0:24:27.720 --> 0:24:32.400
