1 00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:05,880 Speaker 1: The media is forced to pay for Trump's library. We'll 2 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:09,119 Speaker 1: talk about their reverence for the truth tonight. Carol Roth 3 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,719 Speaker 1: joins us, what's going on with the economy? What's going 4 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:15,120 Speaker 1: on with these drones? Ross Kennedy is here, Jeffrey Tucker, 5 00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:28,000 Speaker 1: what a show tonight? But I'm right, okay, So let's 6 00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:33,959 Speaker 1: talk about this media settlement, ABC lies, communism, shared values. 7 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 1: We have so much to discuss tonight. First, let me 8 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 1: ask you something. Do you believe telling the truth is 9 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: better than lying? And if you have kids, or maybe 10 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: you want one, do you want them to tell the 11 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 1: truth or do you want. 12 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 2: Them to lie? 13 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 1: Of course, obviously almost a stupid question. Of course, telling 14 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 1: the truth is better. That's just how everyone thinks, right, 15 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 1: But that's kind of why I asked the question. 16 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 2: Let me let me stop you right there for a moment. 17 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 1: This is a mistake we on the right have made 18 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,639 Speaker 1: time and time and time again. It's a very human 19 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,320 Speaker 1: nature mistake to make a mistake we talk about often 20 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 1: here on the show, the mistake of putting your values, 21 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: projecting your values onto other people who don't share those 22 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: values at all. I just asked you if you cared 23 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: about telling the truth and of course you said, yes, 24 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: we're telling the truth is better than mine. But is 25 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: there a guy on the sidewalk outside of your house 26 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 1: or did you see one today when you drove by. 27 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 1: Would you think if I asked him that question and 28 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 1: he had to answer honestly, do you think he would 29 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: give the same answer you did. Well, you probably say, yeah, 30 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: of course what everyone values honesty. 31 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 2: But that's where you make a mistake. 32 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: You see, there are people all across this planet, for 33 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: various reasons, who do not share your values at all, 34 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 1: not even. 35 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 2: A little bit. 36 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: And the American communist most definitely does not share your values. 37 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,799 Speaker 1: He knows what your values are, he can see them. 38 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: You're very honest about them, and so he knows he 39 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 1: has to act as if he shares your values, but 40 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: deep down inside he doesn't share your values one little bit. 41 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: And that's gonna bring us to the media in this 42 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: defamation case. Before I get to ABC and George Stephanopolis, though, 43 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: as an example of what I'm going to talk about here, 44 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna read you a quote. This is a direct 45 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: quote from the head of NPR. Catherine Mayer is her name, 46 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: and her quote was this. She was standing up on 47 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 1: stage giving a speech talking to a bunch of people. 48 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 2: This is a direct quote Kathrine Mayer quote. 49 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 1: Our reverence for the truth might be a distraction, getting 50 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: in the way of finding common ground and. 51 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 2: Getting things done. 52 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: I want you to just digest that for a moment 53 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 1: before we go into ABC, the media and everything else. 54 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: Our reverence for the truth, for you, it's a good thing, right, 55 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: and you would think the media media organization would really 56 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: treasure that. 57 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 2: But the head of this. 58 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 1: Media organization, in a moment of honesty, said, I have 59 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 1: a distraction, but a distraction from what. A distraction from what, 60 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: from reaching a consensus and getting things done. You see, 61 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: you think everyone shares the values of telling the truth. 62 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 2: But that couldn't be could couldn't be less true. 63 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: They don't share those values at all. They know they 64 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: have to act as if they share those values. But 65 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: for them, the most important thing is not the truth. 66 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: It's certainly not informing you. The most important thing is 67 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: getting things done. And sometimes that means lying. Really, that 68 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: rarely means telling the truth. And that that is how 69 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: the corporate media, which is all communists in this country, 70 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: that's how they have operated for decades and decades now 71 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: it's much much worse now than it ever was. It 72 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: was always bad. There's always been yellow journalism, evil journalists. 73 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: But today all you have to do is go look 74 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,039 Speaker 1: at the ideology of the journalism schools in this country 75 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 1: and you will realize that whenever you turn on the 76 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: television abcnbccbs MSNBCCNN, pick your channel, pick your publication, Washington Post, 77 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: New York Times, those are all communists. 78 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 2: They're all died in the wool communists. 79 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: And they believe getting things done is the most important thing. 80 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 2: Oh of course they know. 81 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 1: They have to use phrases that kind of appeal to 82 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:44,919 Speaker 1: your values and my values. 83 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 2: That's why they say things like. 84 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: Well, we have to speak truth to power. They love 85 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 1: saying things like that, or we have to inform voters. 86 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: But remember, truth isn't secondary to these people. It's very 87 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: common for us to describe it that way. For them, 88 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: truth is just secondary. Truth is not involved in the 89 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 1: equation at all. They're not concerned with that at all. 90 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: They're on a mission. They're on a mission to destroy everything, 91 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: and the truth, frankly, is a ridiculous thing they never 92 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: even consider. And this is just how they operate. When 93 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: I come into the studio every single day. 94 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: I'll tell you this. 95 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: When I show up here in the studio, every day, 96 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: I get a cup of coffee. We have a little 97 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: coffee machine in this little kitchen, and I go and 98 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 1: I get a cup of coffee. It's a matter of routine. 99 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 1: It's just what I do. I get a cup of coffee. 100 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: Start looking through things. For the American media, for the 101 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: corporate media, their cup of coffee is lying. They lie 102 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 1: about everything at all times, and. 103 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 2: They always have. 104 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: That's just how they do business. They're on a mission 105 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 1: tell them the truth. And so George Stephanopolis a little 106 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 1: while back on March tenth, twenty twenty four, on why 107 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: I Can't talk right now, sat down with Nancy Mays 108 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 1: and set it out right live. 109 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 3: You've endorsed Donald Trump for president. Judges and two separate 110 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 3: juries have found him liable for rape and for defaming 111 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 3: the victim of that rape. How do you square your 112 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 3: endorsement of Donald Trump with a testimony we just saw. 113 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 4: Well, I will tell you I was raped at the 114 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 4: age of sixteen, and any rape victim will tell you 115 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,359 Speaker 4: I've lived for thirty years with an incredible amount of 116 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 4: shame over being raped. I didn't come forward because of 117 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 4: that judgment and shame that I felt. It's a shame 118 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,159 Speaker 4: that you will never feel, George. And I'm not going 119 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 4: to sit here on your show and be asked a 120 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 4: question meant to shame me about another potential rape victim. 121 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 4: I'm I'm not going to do that. 122 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 5: No hard it was to tell my story five years 123 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 5: ago when they were doing a fetal heartbeat bill, when 124 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,840 Speaker 5: there were no exceptions for rape incest or rape or 125 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 5: incest in there. I had to tell my story because 126 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 5: no other woman was coming for us, no rape victims 127 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 5: were repped, resented. And you're trying to shame me this morning. 128 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 5: I'm just saying I find it offensive and this is 129 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 5: why women won't come forward. 130 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, Setting aside Nancy Mason's comments, what Stephanopolis said right, 131 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: there was a lie and it wasn't like a shade 132 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: of the truth, well a manipulation of things. 133 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 2: It was a black and white lie. 134 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: Donald Trump was not found liable for rape, a black 135 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: and white line. And now we have entered a new era, 136 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: and it's going to be a brutal, brutal era for 137 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: the American media. Who's used to having that cup of 138 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: coffee They're used to being able to simply tell those lies. 139 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: Donald Trump sued ABC and George Stephanopoulos was about to 140 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: have to go sit down for a deposition under oath. 141 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: He was going to have to open the books, if 142 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: you will, all those emails, all those texts. What might 143 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: he have found there? We don't know, because ABC, so 144 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: nervous about the prospect of that, decided to go head 145 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: and stroke a fifteen million dollar check to Donald Trump 146 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: for the lie they told on camera, and in a 147 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: hilarious moment of irony, that money is actually going to 148 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: go to pay for Donald Trump's presidential library. You know 149 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: how every president gets a library when they're done ABC 150 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: lying about Trump. They're gonna pay for Donald Trump's presidential library. 151 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: But that isn't That isn't even the most shocking thing 152 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: about all this. Again, every single day when I come 153 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 1: into the studio, I get a cup of coffee. It's 154 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: just a matter of routine for the American media. Lying 155 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: about people on the right is simply a cup of coffee. 156 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: It's how they've always operated. ABC just wrote a fifteen 157 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: million dollar check for what George Stefanopolis said right there 158 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: on camera, and MSNBC after this said the same thing. 159 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 6: I'll just say, I mean, this feels like it has 160 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 6: a real chilling effect. Like I mean, shout out to 161 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 6: the standards department. Okay, standards is always making sure that 162 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 6: we are keeping the bar high and substance of inaccurate. 163 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 6: But what George Sethanopolis said in that interview, I mean 164 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 6: it seems to hold up. And what the judge said 165 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 6: after the back and now he's a news organization and himself, 166 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 6: George Hepannopolis himself is paying a million dollars of his 167 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 6: own money to the lawyers and ABC and fifty million dollars. 168 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 6: It's insane. 169 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 2: They can't help themselves. 170 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: Why can't they help themselves because telling lies is simply 171 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:47,960 Speaker 1: what they've always done. All communism focuses on control of information, 172 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: because all communism is evil, horrible, people will hate it, 173 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: and therefore they have to lie about everything at all times. 174 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 2: Truth is no secondary to them. 175 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: Truth is outright banned, it's not even allowed. They would 176 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 1: never be able to function in any kind of a 177 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: system where they had to be honest about their plans, 178 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: about the results of their plans. You realize if the American. 179 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 2: Corporate media told the truth. 180 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 1: About Democrats and their policies. There would be no Democrat Party. 181 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,479 Speaker 1: They would be so wiped out from coast to coast nationwide, 182 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: the party itself would cease to exist and they would 183 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: come up with some kind of a new party. That's 184 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 1: how unpopular these people would be without an ocean of lies. 185 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: Their entire existence is built on a foundation of lies. 186 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 2: They don't know any other way. 187 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 1: And to piggyback on this, to put a little cherry 188 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: on top of this, I should say Mark Andriesen's one 189 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 1: of these corporate CEO types, you know, career lib who's 190 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,679 Speaker 1: come out in support of Donald Trump and speaking against Democrats. 191 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: He was talking about AI, artificial intelligence, and what he 192 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: says here on camera is some of the craziest stuff 193 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 1: ever unless you accept the people we're facing, our communists, 194 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 1: who believe in controlling information, all of it at all times. 195 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,719 Speaker 7: We had meetings in d C in May where we 196 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 7: talked to them about this, and the meetings were absolutely horrifying, 197 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 7: and we came out basically deciding we had to endorse Trump. 198 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 4: What did you hear in those meetings? 199 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:21,719 Speaker 7: AI is a technology and basically that the government is 200 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 7: going to completely control this is not going to be 201 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 7: a startup thing. They actually said flat out to us, 202 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,200 Speaker 7: don't start don't do AI startups, like, don't don't fund 203 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,680 Speaker 7: AI startups. It's not something that we're going to allow 204 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 7: to happen. They're not going to be allowed to exist. 205 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 7: There's no point. They basically said, AI is going to 206 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 7: be a game of two or three big companies working 207 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 7: closely with the government, and we're going to basically wrap 208 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 7: them in a you know, I'm paraphrasing, but we're going 209 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 7: to basically wrap them in a government cocoon. We're going 210 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 7: to protect them from competition, we're going to control them, 211 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 7: and we're going to dictate what they do. And then 212 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 7: I said, well, I said, I don't understand how you're 213 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 7: going to lock this down so much, because like the 214 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 7: math for you know, AI is like out there and 215 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 7: it's being taught everywhere. And you know, they literally said, well, 216 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 7: you know, during the Cold War, we classified entire areas 217 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 7: of and took them out of the research community, and 218 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 7: and and and like entire branches of physics basically went 219 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 7: dark and didn't proceed, and that if we if we 220 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 7: decide we need to, we're gonna do the same thing 221 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 7: to the math underneath AI. Wow, And I said, I've 222 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 7: just learned two very important things because I wasn't aware 223 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 7: of the former, and I wasn't aware that you were, 224 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 7: you know, even conceiving of doing it to the. 225 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 1: Latter AI Way of the Future stuff, artificial intelligence stuff. 226 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: The Biden administration called in the big shots and said, 227 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 1: don't even bother starting anything. We intend to control it all. 228 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: They don't share your values at all, and they certainly 229 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 1: don't share your reverence for the truth. Will be an 230 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 1: interesting new world now watching these people have to write 231 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 1: checks for every lie they tell. All that may have 232 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: made you uncomfortable, but I am right. Jeffrey Tucker is 233 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: going to join us next talk about the United Healthcare CEO, murder, 234 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: the reverence for the murder, all kinds of creepy stuff 235 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 1: out there.

But what I think 255 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 8: has happened in the last few months is that what 256 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 8: you have seen rising up is people's anger at a 257 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 8: health insurance industry which denies people the healthcare that they 258 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 8: desperately need while they make billions and billions of dollars 259 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 8: in profit. 260 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: Well, of course, shooting somebody in the back is wrong, 261 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: But and then he goes on to explain exactly why 262 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: it was justified. Of course, this is the same Bernie Sanders, 263 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 1: one of his supporters, showed up at a baseball game, 264 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 1: softball practice, forget what it was. GOP's congressman there and 265 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: Guy showed up and tried to murder everybody. He was 266 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: a huge Bernie Sanders supporter, tried to do it because 267 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: of the things Bernie Sanders told him all the time. Interesting, 268 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: how often violence follows these people joining me now? Jeffrey 269 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: a Tucker founder and president of the Brownstone Institute. Jeffrey, 270 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: it is so wild, how how often political violence gets 271 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 1: traced right back to a communist. 272 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 2: It's almost as if it's in their nature. 273 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 9: Yeah, this is there's a deeper issue going on here, 274 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 9: and it's not even the communists. This is this is 275 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 9: an attempt to change the narrative structure of our times, 276 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 9: where we're seeing all these preference cascades. Everything's being brought 277 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 9: into question the deep state, you know, for that matter, 278 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 9: daylight saving time, vaccine mandates, you know, big big rule 279 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 9: by agencies. Doge is talking about two trillion dollar cuts. 280 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 9: You know, everything is changing, and it's all a result 281 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 9: of a kind of populist movement that is increasingly skeptical 282 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 9: of the elites. So what you have with this killing 283 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 9: right now is an attempt to divert the populace movement 284 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 9: and change its structure away from pharma, away from agencies, 285 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 9: away from big media and and capture by the deep 286 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 9: state towards you know, completely innocent people who are just 287 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 9: trying to you know, exist within you know, the enterprise 288 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 9: system has been set up, namely health insurance. It's not 289 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 9: their fault that the system is such a messed up thing. 290 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 10: That's that's Obamacare. 291 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 9: And and so the killing of this guy is it's 292 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 9: a performative assassination. 293 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 10: It's it's like, well, yeah, he did kill him, and 294 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 10: that's that's bad. 295 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 9: On the other hand, the you know, the public is upset, 296 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 9: so it's it's a kind of a faux populism designed 297 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 9: to replace the real populism and divert people's anger away 298 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 9: from government. 299 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 10: Media, big tech over towards. 300 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 9: You know, completely you know, blameless sources that are existing 301 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 9: with this truck within the structure that the left itself 302 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:11,160 Speaker 9: set up with Obamacare. And and it's a classic sort 303 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 9: of triangulating move by you know, the creators of the 304 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 9: ruling class, creators of sort of public narratives designed for 305 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 9: the public mind. That's that's what's happening. And it's not 306 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 9: at all unusual. That's happens right before Trump gets inaugurated. 307 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,719 Speaker 1: So you think this is more the left trying to 308 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 1: co op a populist uprising against some evils, them trying 309 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: to grab it and kind of divert it if you will. 310 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 10: Yeah, no, that's exactly right. 311 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,200 Speaker 9: I mean the insurance companies again, they just exist within 312 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 9: a structure that was set up. I mean, the healthcare 313 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 9: system you know, obviously needs reform, but be killing the 314 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,880 Speaker 9: CEO of United Health, you know, it's an outrageous act 315 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:56,160 Speaker 9: of murder. And it's and you know what's interesting about 316 00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 9: this guy and Luigi man Men's straight out of central casting, 317 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 9: you know. So you know, he's good looking and you know, 318 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 9: god a six pack, he's got all this kind of 319 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 9: stuff going for he's killed and righteous anger for his 320 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:15,199 Speaker 9: supposed injury. But you know, from a class point of view, 321 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 9: what's interesting is this guy comes from a mega wealthy family, 322 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 9: went to the finest PEP schools, and he killed a 323 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:25,360 Speaker 9: guy who you know, lifted himself up out off his bootstraps, 324 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 9: you know, you know, working odd jobs as a kid, 325 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 9: you know, And and so it's it's a way of saying, 326 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 9: it doesn't matter if you're rich and privileged. You know, 327 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 9: what matters is that you're you're killing the people who 328 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 9: deserve you know, public scorn and blame. And that's that's 329 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 9: why the universal messaging, you know, ever since the assassination 330 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 9: has been well, that's bad, but it's not so bad. 331 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 9: And and what else do you expect when we have 332 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 9: such a bad system? And don't you think we need 333 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,160 Speaker 9: medicare for all or or socialized medicine? 334 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 10: So that that's that's what's going on. People need to 335 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 10: understand this. 336 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 9: You know, there's a big difference between the United Healthcare 337 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 9: CEO and the Pfizer CEO, which is definitely allied with 338 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 9: state power, and this United Health CEO is it's a 339 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 9: private company doing its best to operate within a totally 340 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,919 Speaker 9: messed up structure. So it's an attempt to divert the 341 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 9: populist energies away from the real bad guys towards fake 342 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 9: bad guys and pave the way for you know, actually, 343 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 9: in fact, more state power and medicare for all and 344 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 9: and and socialized medicine, as Bernie Sanders once and you know, 345 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 9: once you see this, it's it's it's. 346 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 10: Impossible not to notice. And I'm not saying that. 347 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 9: There was a plot, you know, to set this guy 348 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 9: up and and achieve this, but they might as well 349 00:19:56,119 --> 00:20:00,880 Speaker 9: have been. You know, certainly, certainly, certainly interests out there 350 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 9: are trying to use this as a way of changing 351 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:09,439 Speaker 9: the debate and discussion that's going on in this country, 352 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 9: which has become gravely threatening to a lot of powers 353 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 9: that be. 354 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 10: So you know, we need to be alert to this 355 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 10: kind of step. 356 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 9: Between now and inauguration for that matter afterwards, an attempt 357 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 9: to kind of rile the public up against fake enemies 358 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 9: so they will stop targeting the real enemies. 359 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 1: Jeffer, you mentioned Obamacare, and a lot of people obviously 360 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 1: we have short memories. 361 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 2: It happens in societies. 362 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: People don't realize how responsible Obamacare is for the disastrous 363 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: healthcare system we now have in this country. 364 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 2: They just don't get it. 365 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 9: They have no idea and something I've radged against and 366 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 9: which I hope is going to come into questions, this 367 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 9: idea that health insurers have to insurance ensure everybody regardless 368 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 9: of their of their risk. I mean that means it's 369 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,199 Speaker 9: not insurance. Really, the actuaries are not in charge. And 370 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 9: you know, the funny thing is, it's not as if 371 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 9: the actuaries don't exist within healthcare. It's just that they're 372 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 9: not allowed to run risk profiles against individuals, so they 373 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 9: have to do against whole classes and whole regions, and 374 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 9: in a faction of us into a kind of socialistic 375 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 9: system that's that's administered by private companies that I have 376 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:31,879 Speaker 9: no choice about it. So you know, everybody pays for 377 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 9: everybody else's healthcare now, and that's why your premium soared 378 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:42,399 Speaker 9: after Obamacare, and and really the ninety percent or I 379 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 9: don't know how you want to look at the number, 380 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 9: but to say, it's like the overwhelming majority are paying 381 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 9: hugely high prices for a small minority of people that 382 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 9: are consuming all the resources and not you know, I'm 383 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 9: not proposing we have a different central plan. All I'm 384 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,639 Speaker 9: suggesting is that our healthcare ought to work more like 385 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 9: auto insurance and and be more specifically targeted, targeted to individuals, 386 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 9: and and you know that would make such a huge difference. 387 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 9: Right now, there's absolutely no incentive for anybody to get healthy. 388 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:24,159 Speaker 9: I mean, if if if if if if you're a 389 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 9: change in diet and exercise and quit smoking and substance 390 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 9: abuse and stuff caused your health insurance that you were 391 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 9: personally pain, if you were personally pain as opposed to 392 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 9: your your your business. 393 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:37,920 Speaker 10: There's another thing that needs to change. 394 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 9: If that could make a difference, it would it would 395 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 9: immediately contribute mightily to the make America health Healthy grade again, 396 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 9: Make America Healthy Again agenda, Whereas right now it really 397 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 9: doesn't matter whether you're desperately ill by your own hand 398 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 9: or by an accident of nature, or whether you've been 399 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 9: working to get healthy. It's not going to change anything 400 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 9: about your premiums. And the other thing is that we 401 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,439 Speaker 9: can't have catastrophic health care coverage that would cost you know, 402 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 9: fifty bucks a month or whatever, because you have these 403 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 9: predetermined packages. And this is all a consequence of obamacarey. 404 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 9: It was a cockamamy crazy system when it went in, 405 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 9: and it was destined to vastly increase healthcare costs and 406 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 9: pillage us and give us worse outcomes. And that was 407 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 9: inevitable from the very beginning. Now that it's happened, you've 408 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 9: got Bernie Sanders out there, you. 409 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 10: Know, wink wink, nudge nudge. 410 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,679 Speaker 9: Nothing wrong with the public being mad at the of 411 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 9: all people the end health insurance companies rather than the 412 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 9: government that makes them operate within a certain structure. 413 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 10: I mean, we need dramatic healthcare reform in this country. 414 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 9: We need to start to seriously talk about it and 415 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 9: raise questions about these these preset benefit packages. 416 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 10: Okay, that's one thing. 417 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 9: Another one is the mandate that they accept all comers 418 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 9: no matter how unhealthy they are, and can't adjust premiums 419 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 9: based on the health of the individual. 420 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 10: That's outrageous. 421 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:09,200 Speaker 9: And a third thing we need to get away from 422 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 9: is this idea that companies themselves should be required to 423 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 9: buy health insurance for the employees and split the differency 424 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 9: the way with the employees. And so people think healthcare 425 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 9: comes automatically when you have a job. I mean that's 426 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,680 Speaker 9: not true. It's coming out of your salary and out 427 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 9: of your wages, and you're paying way more than you 428 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 9: should thanks to all these Obamacare mandates. So I would 429 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 9: love to see that whole those three things just blast away, 430 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 9: and that would go up very long way to fixing 431 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 9: American health care. I tell you what, it's not going 432 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 9: to fix American health care. It's kelling and CEOs of 433 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:47,160 Speaker 9: health insurance companies. But that's what they want you to believe, 434 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 9: and it's all designed to achieve certain results. So I 435 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 9: just hope your listeners are aware, we need to increase 436 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 9: only look at public life in this country as if 437 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 9: it was a sort of a movie being scripted for us, 438 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,160 Speaker 9: and we shouldn't be manipulated by it. It's very, very 439 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 9: dangerous and as long as you're alert to how that 440 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:10,959 Speaker 9: manipulation takes place, then you can you can insulate yourself 441 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 9: from the effects of this kind of stuff. But that's 442 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 9: exactly what's going on right now. Luigimangioni was a tempio. 443 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:20,199 Speaker 9: They tried to valorize him and turn him into a 444 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,439 Speaker 9: hero to get rid of our other heroes in the 445 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 9: form of Elon Musker, Vivek Ramasomi or Donald Trump or 446 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 9: r FK. Junior, So that this is an attempt to 447 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 9: create manufacturer cobble together in a Hollywood style and new 448 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 9: hero that everybody's supposed to look towards. And unfortunately there's 449 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 9: a lot of people that are are vulnerable and easy 450 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 9: to manipulate, and they're going for it. 451 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:46,360 Speaker 10: And it's pretty pathetic. 452 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 2: It is very pathetic.

Because I 502 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 11: am certain for one that those terrorists and money launderers 503 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 11: are going to register their beneficial ownership information with the government. 504 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 11: The challenge for small businesses is that if you don't 505 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 11: comply that you could end up in jail. You could 506 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 11: end up with a fine of almost six hundred dollars 507 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 11: per day and growing, and millions of small businesses don't 508 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 11: even know about this, despite the fact that it's completely 509 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,479 Speaker 11: unconstitutional and shouldn't be a thing to begin with. So 510 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 11: there was a lawsuit earlier this year with the NSBA 511 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 11: where the court found it unconstitutional, but narrowed the scope 512 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 11: to just the plaintiffs. 513 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 12: In that case, which is insane. 514 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 11: Because if it's unconstitutional, it should be unconstitutional for everyone. Fortunately, 515 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 11: earlier this month we had a Texas court that put 516 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 11: out an injunction and set Treasury we're sorry, this is unconstitutional. 517 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 11: We're going to make it so that no small businesses 518 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 11: who even single member LLCs, who who or or es 519 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 11: corpse any solopreneur that has an entity that they're not 520 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 11: going to have to. 521 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 12: Do this because we think it's ridiculous. 522 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 11: So small businesses have a little bit of breathing room 523 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 11: now because the deadline was January first. The challenge Jesse 524 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 11: is that now the government has appealed this injunction. So 525 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 11: if the injunction is quote unquote stayed, which means it's 526 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 11: lifted or overturned, or if the scope is somehow narrowed 527 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 11: again just to the plaintiffs, that means that those penalties, 528 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 11: those egregious penalties for non compliance can be on the 529 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 11: table for millions of small business owners that don't want 530 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 11: to comply with something on constitution, and millions more that 531 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 11: don't even know that this exists. 532 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,479 Speaker 2: Good freaking grief. 533 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 1: Okay, So is there good news on the horizon. This 534 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:14,719 Speaker 1: thing is expiring, right, I mean, there's good news coming surely. 535 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 11: Well, the injunction was very good news because that means 536 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 11: for the time being, you don't have to file, but 537 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 11: it does mean you have to watch and make sure 538 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 11: it's not overturned. 539 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 12: What we're trying to do, those. 540 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 11: Of us in the small business community, and I've testified 541 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 11: in front of Congress about this. We have a lot 542 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 11: of entities, from the NFIB who was in that last lawsuit, 543 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 11: to the s Corps Association, and a whole bunch of 544 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 11: groups who are working really hard against this. We're trying 545 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 11: to get Congress to add at least a delay to 546 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 11: the Continuing Resolution to fund the government, so that maybe 547 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 11: we can get at least some time to have the 548 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 11: Trump administration look at this. The best thing that we 549 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 11: could have is the Trump administration come out and say 550 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 11: this is ridiculous because as Trump, by the way, vetoed 551 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 11: the original congressional authorization for this, and Congress overwrote his veto, 552 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 11: so he could come out and say we're not going 553 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 11: to enforce any penalties, and our treasury is going to 554 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 11: completely jettison this. That would be the most certainty for 555 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 11: small businesses. Because you know, big businesses are exempt, financial 556 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 11: services companies are exempt. Anyone who actually might potentially launder 557 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 11: money and be an issue as exempt. And this is 558 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 11: purely targeting small businesses. So we need for our thirty 559 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 11: four million small businesses in this country, we need some 560 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 11: certainty and clarity. 561 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 12: So either Congress can do this or the Trump. 562 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 11: Administration can do this, or both, but we need that 563 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 11: to happen. But if in the meantime, we if you 564 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 11: are a small business that is not sure if you 565 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 11: should file or not. I am personally not filing while 566 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 11: there is an injunction, but I'm keeping my. 567 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 12: Eye on the information on a daily basis. 568 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 1: Okay, let's talk really quickly, Carol, before I let you 569 00:31:58,320 --> 00:31:59,719 Speaker 1: go about the stock market. 570 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 2: It looks to be going well. 571 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: My finance guide tells me it's going well, and it's 572 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 1: looking even better. Is this the Trump effect? Is there 573 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 1: something else going on? What's going on? 574 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 11: So the stock markets had a crazy year. The S 575 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 11: and P five hundred to date is up I think 576 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 11: a little over thirty percent, So it's been on a tearm. 577 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 11: Particularly since Trump won. There has been a lot of optimism, 578 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 11: and that optimism is very self fulfilling, particularly as he 579 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 11: embraces AI, crypto technology, less regulation, more growth. 580 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 12: All of those things are very good. The biggest challenge that. 581 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 11: We have, particularly for old school folks like myself that 582 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 11: used to focus on things like valuations of companies, is 583 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 11: that there's something called the Warren Buffett indicator. It's a 584 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 11: measurement that Warren Buffett came in to find out if 585 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 11: stocks are overvalued. And this Buffet indicator takes the entire 586 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 11: market cap of the stock market to the GDP and 587 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 11: now it is at two times. 588 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 12: So the market is two times. 589 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,479 Speaker 11: The value of the GDP of the US and that 590 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 11: is the highest level it has ever been in all 591 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 11: of history. So if you were in a normal situation, 592 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 11: you would say this is very overvalued. We're probably due 593 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 11: for some sort of a pullback and then maybe you know, 594 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 11: a continued upward trend from there. But you know, we 595 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 11: are in this era where fiat currency and all the 596 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,320 Speaker 11: spending and all the shenanigans have kind of disrupted what 597 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,800 Speaker 11: it means to have valuations and common sense, and so 598 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 11: it's hard for us to really wrap our heads around it. 599 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 12: But it's definitely an interesting time. 600 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 11: At the same time that we have the buffet indicator 601 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 11: saying that, you know, it's kind of flashing a warning sign. 602 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:50,720 Speaker 11: Consumer sentiment about the stock market is at the highest 603 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 11: level in forty years. 604 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 12: So you could say that's a great thing, or you 605 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 12: could say, oh no. 606 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 11: By the time it comes down to you know, my 607 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,080 Speaker 11: taxi or uber driver, you know, maybe we're at the 608 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 11: top of a cycle. But you know, I do think 609 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 11: that it's we're probably due for some sort of a pullback, 610 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 11: a correction, but then probably a continued lift from there. 611 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 11: The biggest issue is that inflation is eating up a 612 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,200 Speaker 11: lot of those of those gains, so we see the 613 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 11: thirty percent, but when you start to adjust that for inflation, 614 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 11: it doesn't look quite as great. 615 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,879 Speaker 12: But you need to be invested in order to keep 616 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:24,480 Speaker 12: pace with it. 617 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,280 Speaker 1: Of course they give it and they take it away. Carol, 618 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 1: thank you, ma'am. As always, I appreciate you. All right, 619 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:37,279 Speaker 1: the drones, it's not going away. What's going on? Well, 620 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 1: let's talk to Ross Kennedy about that next. He always 621 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,919 Speaker 1: knows what's going on. Before we get to Ross, let's 622 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 1: talk about something special. 623 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:48,880 Speaker 2: Saving a baby's life. 624 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: Well, now you can save two you see right now 625 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: Preborn's Christmas season and they got a match. 626 00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 2: What does that mean? It means for. 627 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 1: Twenty eight dollars you buy an ultrasound for a young 628 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:05,080 Speaker 1: woman who's about to kill her baby. If she takes 629 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,879 Speaker 1: that ultrasound, she will choose life. She does almost every time. 630 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:12,839 Speaker 1: And now through a match, your gift is double. So 631 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 1: two lives, not even call them babies. Two lives for 632 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: the price of one. Sound like something good to do. 633 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 1: It's a Christmas season. Preborn dot com slash jesse is 634 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 1: where you go to give give worth double. Now preborn 635 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 1: dot com slash jesse, there's a baby who needs you. 636 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:34,600 Speaker 2: We'll be back. 637 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 13: There's no question that people are seeing drones. And I 638 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:47,279 Speaker 13: want to assure the American public that we in the 639 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 13: federal government have deployed additional resources, personnel technology to assist 640 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 13: the New Jersey State Police in addressing the drone sightings. 641 00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 13: And in September of twenty twenty three, the Federal Aviation 642 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 13: Administration the FAA change the rules so that drones could 643 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 13: fly at night, and that may be one of the 644 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:11,319 Speaker 13: reasons why now people are seeing more drones than they 645 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 13: did before, especially from dawn to dusk. And it is critical, 646 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 13: as we all have said for a number of years, 647 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 13: that we need from Congress additional authorities to address the 648 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:29,439 Speaker 13: drone situation. Our authorities currently are limited and they are 649 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,839 Speaker 13: set to expire. We need them extended and expanded. 650 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:39,239 Speaker 1: Oh okay, well, not clarified, Absolutely nothing. So what is 651 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 1: going on in New Jersey besides the normal people doing 652 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:45,600 Speaker 1: New Jersey things? Are they Aliens? Is it Iranians? Is 653 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 1: it the CIA? Have we been knoked? What is going on? 654 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 1: I doubt any of those things are true, and maybe 655 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:51,399 Speaker 1: all of them are true. 656 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:52,479 Speaker 2: Ross will set us straight. 657 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 1: Joining me now, founder of Fortist Analysis, my friend Ross 658 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:58,879 Speaker 1: Kennedy knows more about supply chains and stuff like that 659 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 1: than I will ever know. Okay, Ross, we don't traffic 660 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,400 Speaker 1: and nutball things on the show. We try to just 661 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 1: focus on facts here. As you well know, you always 662 00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:11,720 Speaker 1: straighten us out what is going on in New Jersey? 663 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 14: Well, I think you've got you know, what started as 664 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:24,719 Speaker 14: a you know, interesting unusual you know video somewhere of 665 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:29,120 Speaker 14: things somebody didn't know how to identify. You know, a 666 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:33,080 Speaker 14: book was written in the seventeen hundreds, eighteen hundreds, you know, Tulamania, 667 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,920 Speaker 14: The Madness of Crowds, and it talks about the the 668 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 14: phenomenon of cultural and mass panic or you know, madness 669 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 14: type of events, you know, Ponzi schemes, market runs, things 670 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 14: like that. And really all we've done as humans is 671 00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:54,480 Speaker 14: we haven't really updated our understanding of how the world works, 672 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:58,839 Speaker 14: or our ability to rationalize things we don't understand. We've 673 00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,720 Speaker 14: just simply accelerated our ability to share. 674 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:03,400 Speaker 2: Things that induce panic. 675 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:06,720 Speaker 14: Almost every one of these videos that's come out shows 676 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:12,400 Speaker 14: very clearly FAA regulated marked navigational lights and anti collision lights. 677 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 14: You've got green on one wing, right on another, wide 678 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,800 Speaker 14: on the tail, and so it's very clear that whatever 679 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 14: these are, they're not trying to hide. They're operating in 680 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 14: pretty clear line of sight. But the shape of them 681 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,520 Speaker 14: or the orientation of them is confusing to people because 682 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,319 Speaker 14: they don't really know what we have. They don't know 683 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 14: that we have drones that can, you know, take off 684 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 14: very quickly, they can hover. Some that are rotary styles, 685 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 14: some that are more conventional you know, fixed wing types, 686 00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,239 Speaker 14: or that are propeller driven that look more like regular aircraft. 687 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 14: Some that are hybrid, you know, like the V twenty 688 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 14: two Osprey, you know, as a marine something you might 689 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 14: know about, you know, a tilt rotor. They can change 690 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 14: its orientation and flight. And some of these videos are 691 00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 14: just garden variety aircraft doing aircraft things. But we live 692 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:02,800 Speaker 14: in an age of social media and mass media induced panic. 693 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,280 Speaker 14: There's a more interesting question of if they are government 694 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 14: drones and not just people spreading crazy things, what are 695 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 14: they doing up there? Why are they operating so visibly 696 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,880 Speaker 14: in a way that you know, there's just a density 697 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 14: of these sightings that are happening that's non typical, And 698 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 14: that's maybe even the more interesting question than just what 699 00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 14: are they? What are they? They're very clearly, you know, 700 00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:29,280 Speaker 14: terrestrial based, you know, flying machines for lack. 701 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 2: Of a better term. But they're not aliens. They're not 702 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 2: UAPs or anything like that. 703 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 14: The question is not so much the what it's it's 704 00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:37,720 Speaker 14: more the why or the timing. 705 00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 2: Dang it, I really wanted them to be aliens, and 706 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:42,759 Speaker 2: I did, love I do. 707 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 10: I don't know how you knew. 708 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 1: I am an ospray fan, although if I remember, it 709 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 1: was a real, real fuel guzzler. 710 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 2: And that was a big problem. Okay, So. 711 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 1: If it is our government, and forgive me, but I'm 712 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,480 Speaker 1: assuming it is our government, what isn't already a commercial 713 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:00,799 Speaker 1: airliner or whatnot, because there's a lot of confusion out there. 714 00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:04,320 Speaker 1: If it is our government, doesn't it seem like maybe 715 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 1: they're looking for something? Would that make sense for us? 716 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:10,239 Speaker 1: Maybe they just lost something it happens. I mean, our 717 00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 1: government has lost nuclear weapons. 718 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:15,280 Speaker 2: Before it happens. Did you think they maybe lost something? 719 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 14: Well, I think you've got two scenarios here. In a 720 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 14: third scenario that's really a combination of the two. The 721 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:28,880 Speaker 14: fact that these can fully operate in the dark because 722 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 14: of their hyperspectual cameras, because of very advanced avionics systems. 723 00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:34,760 Speaker 14: Even the ones that are more autonomous in nature versus 724 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 14: you know, fully manned type of platforms like a predator. 725 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 2: Or a reaper drone. 726 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:42,640 Speaker 14: The fact that they're running lights on, the fact that 727 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 14: they're operating over civilian areas where camera phones are very 728 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,840 Speaker 14: much a thing, and the fact that they're saying nothing 729 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 14: indicates that it's really, you know, really could only be 730 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:57,880 Speaker 14: one of three things. Number one is that it's a test. 731 00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 14: You know, trust us were from the government, We're here 732 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:03,279 Speaker 14: to help. Is not really a viable answer. And that's 733 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 14: kind of what we're getting from the majorcases or the 734 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 14: John Kirbys of the world, is you know, and it's 735 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,040 Speaker 14: the reason Trump is leaning into this. 736 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 2: As you guys are causing panics. Something is going on, you've. 737 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:19,319 Speaker 14: Got to be honest about it or to some degree. So, 738 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:22,839 Speaker 14: if we are testing capabilities, you could be testing any 739 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 14: number of things. You know, you could have a live 740 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:29,800 Speaker 14: material that you're training these things if they're autonomous or 741 00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 14: semi autonomous in nature to be able to detect and follow, 742 00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 14: to interoperate with each other, but they're also going to 743 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:40,320 Speaker 14: have to be responsive. It an actual information gathering scenario 744 00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:45,160 Speaker 14: overseas and supportive troops or in any sort of scenario 745 00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:47,160 Speaker 14: where they have to be deployed for real. These things 746 00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,960 Speaker 14: will often have the ability to swarm or do leader follower, 747 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:52,360 Speaker 14: so you have to train them in a dynamic information 748 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 14: environment where people aren't changing their reactions to knowing that 749 00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:00,480 Speaker 14: these are a certain thing and don't worry about it. 750 00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:03,600 Speaker 14: Pattern of life is a part of the training set 751 00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:05,920 Speaker 14: for these types of things and for the operators. 752 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 2: How do people respond to the unknown or the unexpected. 753 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,120 Speaker 14: So you take all that data in and you can 754 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:15,279 Speaker 14: build better mission plans around the use of these platforms 755 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:17,840 Speaker 14: and where and how they're operated, launched, maintained. 756 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 2: Scenario two. Besides, this is a. 757 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:22,680 Speaker 14: Test, you know, sort of a live fire test if 758 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 14: you will, over the US Population Center, which is kind 759 00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 14: of irresponsible, but I do get it. The second scenario 760 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 14: is there is a rogue thing. 761 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:32,360 Speaker 2: On the loose. 762 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 14: You know, drones are not just for finding people, which 763 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:37,799 Speaker 14: is kind of how most famously we use them as 764 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,279 Speaker 14: to find people in vehicles. But a lot of these 765 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,640 Speaker 14: types of drones that are out there, whether they're fully 766 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,359 Speaker 14: publicly disclosed and they're kind of hinted at, they do 767 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:47,799 Speaker 14: have sea Bernie sensors on them. Some of them do 768 00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:53,319 Speaker 14: that's your chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosives detection. It 769 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:55,680 Speaker 14: would make an awful lot of sense that these are 770 00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:59,000 Speaker 14: drones that are more oriented towards homeland defense that are 771 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:02,680 Speaker 14: either being tested or there is a situation that for 772 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:06,399 Speaker 14: obvious reasons a national security cannot be talked about. And 773 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 14: the third scenario is something akin to it's a test, 774 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:14,319 Speaker 14: but it's an actual, real test because there is a 775 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:17,400 Speaker 14: real situation. But we're gonna call it a test again, 776 00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:20,320 Speaker 14: a thing that has been done numerous times is concealing 777 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:23,720 Speaker 14: actual activity behind the veil of testing. 778 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:28,520 Speaker 2: Ross. Your hair looks fantastic. I have to tell you, 779 00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 2: it looks beautiful. I appreciate Thank you. 780 00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:35,160 Speaker 1: My brother, look at us, Thank you, my brother. That 781 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 1: was extremely helpful. As always, I appreciate you. All right, 782 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:51,959 Speaker 1: light in the mood next, all right, it is time 783 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,279 Speaker 1: to lighten the mood. And I'm not even sure if 784 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:57,480 Speaker 1: this does lighten my mood. You see Katanji Brown Jackson, 785 00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:00,439 Speaker 1: the Dei hire who sits on Scotus because as Joe 786 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 1: Biden announced that he would only pick a woman and 787 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:05,239 Speaker 1: a black woman. So now he went looking and he 788 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:07,920 Speaker 1: found one. And she's a complete Nutball and she has 789 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:14,719 Speaker 1: a lifelong dream of performing in a Broadway play, and surprise, surprise, 790 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 1: she found some gay up version of Romeo and Juliet 791 00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:21,520 Speaker 1: where she plays a he. She them, I swear on 792 00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 1: my life, I'm not making that up, and we have 793 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:26,359 Speaker 1: the video of her performance. 794 00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:34,200 Speaker 12: Female Empowerment Sick. 795 00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:36,760 Speaker 2: I like it too. 796 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 7: I think what I like about it is that I 797 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:42,759 Speaker 7: am having a very strongly negative reaction to it, like 798 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,120 Speaker 7: I hate it. 799 00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 9: Which makes me think it must be brilliant. 800 00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:59,879 Speaker 1: In gives out the feeling in the Bond kids out. 801 00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 12: The I did it, I made it to Broadway. 802 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 2: I'll see them mhm
