1 00:00:01,800 --> 00:00:06,120 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George 2 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:10,840 Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe Getty, arm Strong and 3 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:17,239 Speaker 1: Jetty and he Armstrong and Getty. 4 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,119 Speaker 2: Authorities in Michigan told parents to be on the lookout 5 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 2: after discovering candy and snacks containing THC and hallucinogenic mushroom products. 6 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,920 Speaker 2: Said parents, Oh, we've been on the lookout for those. 7 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,200 Speaker 2: So is this a serious problem? 8 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 3: I would assume if you're a stoner drug fiend, you 9 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 3: don't want to be given away your stuff, and. 10 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:51,559 Speaker 4: Especially given the fact that it's a felony and give 11 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 4: you a child. Yeah. 12 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, And if something that happened, you'd go to prison. 13 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 4: I suspect Jack, that there will be and have been 14 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 4: a small handful of cases around a gigantic country where 15 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 4: somebody who's either just monumentally stupid or has monumentally terrible 16 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,400 Speaker 4: judgment will do this, and everyone in America will hear 17 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 4: about it over and over again. So it'll be the 18 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:22,959 Speaker 4: classic exceptionality bias news story. It gets attention because it's 19 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 4: so rare. Yeah, it will be incredibly fencing people that 20 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 4: is common. It will be incredibly rare. And I'm not 21 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:29,639 Speaker 4: worried about it for my own kids. 22 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,839 Speaker 3: But I could see I've known numb nuts that would 23 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,639 Speaker 3: think it was funny to get kids high. 24 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: Get kids high. I could see that, Yeah, yeah. 25 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 4: That's your really top tier of stupid. 26 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: Yep, it really is. 27 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 3: So I came across this in substack yesterday from this 28 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 3: guy named Timothy Lee, who I do not know. But 29 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 3: his article was he writes about AI for a living, 30 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 3: and his headline was AI skeptics and AI boosters are 31 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 3: both wrong. 32 00:01:58,680 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: And I gave that a look. 33 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 3: Everybody's guessing to a certain extent here, but I just 34 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 3: thought this was an interesting tank a take I hadn't 35 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 3: heard before. Earlier this month, he writes, I attended an 36 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 3: AI conference called the Curve in Berkeley, California, in just 37 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 3: a few miles from where we are. A lot of 38 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 3: people there were AGI pilled, he calls it. For example, 39 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 3: I participated in a role playing exercise organized by this 40 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 3: dude who argues that AI systems will soon achieve human 41 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 3: level intelligence. Then they will rapidly improve themselves, leading to 42 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 3: superhuman AI capabilities and an extreme acceleration of scientific discovery 43 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 3: and economic growth. Then he went across the hall to 44 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 3: another conference where a different AGI pilled writer. That's someone 45 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 3: who believes so much of this, who believes the super 46 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 3: intelligent AI will kill everyone on the planet. 47 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: He said, to go back to the first one. 48 00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 3: He said, at the opposite end of the spectrum or 49 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 3: skeptic to believe AI is not just overhyped, but practically useless. 50 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 3: This perspective wasn't well represented at the conference, but it 51 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 3: came up a lot. We mentioned this a couple of 52 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:11,839 Speaker 3: weeks ago. There was a piece in The New York 53 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 3: Times quoting this study. One of your big godfathers of AI. 54 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:17,839 Speaker 3: You know, there's a handful of people that are really 55 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 3: well respected whenever they talk about AI. One of those 56 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 3: people wrote a column in The New York Times citing 57 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 3: this MIT study, which we have talked about before. A 58 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 3: recent study run by MIT's program that looks into this 59 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 3: sort of stuff found that ninety five percent of companies 60 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 3: that did AI pilot studies found little or no return 61 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 3: on their investment, and a financial analysis projects an estimated 62 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 3: shortfall of eight hundred billion dollars in revenue for AI 63 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 3: companies by the end of twenty thirty. That it's not 64 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 3: going to pan out near the way they thought so. 65 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 3: That article got a lot of attention at the time, 66 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 3: and apparently came up a lot in this conference. 67 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 4: I can contradict that right now, but go ahead to 68 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 4: that later. No, go ahead, Oh just happened to yesterday afternoon. 69 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 4: I have a conversation with a good friend who is 70 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 4: an attorney of great experience and success and worked for 71 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 4: a fairly important law firm. And he's actually my friend 72 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 4: who I've mentioned to his license to practice both in 73 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 4: the US and Britain. 74 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 1: He is no dummy. 75 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 4: He and his company are working with a certain university 76 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 4: on AI programs for law, and he was describing to 77 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 4: me how they were designing AI personas I think was 78 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 4: the term he used that would approach a problem as 79 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 4: he would not just as a generic attorney or as 80 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 4: a computer, but as he has and would throughout his career. 81 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 4: And that's based on extensive interviews and study of how 82 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 4: he doesn't And he said the results. 83 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 1: Were scary good. Wow. 84 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,039 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't buy the it's not going to be 85 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 3: profitable or be a thing. I lean more toward ruining 86 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 3: the world than toward making it better personally, even though 87 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 3: I think it will make it better and it'll be 88 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 3: able to cure diseases and help you figure out medication 89 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 3: and all kinds of different things. But it at the 90 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 3: same time is going to. 91 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: Ruin the world. And you know, if it ruins the world, 92 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:12,919 Speaker 1: what good does it do? 93 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 3: If I mean, if nobody has jobs and nobody gets 94 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 3: together in relationships anymore, who cares if it's curing these 95 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 3: obscure answers. 96 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 4: Right in the few remaining human beings, right produced Yeah. 97 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 3: But anyway, I wanted to get to this part and 98 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 3: then I will shut up about it because I won't 99 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 3: worry out. But I thought it was this interesting, this 100 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 3: guy writes. My view is between these two extremes. I 101 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 3: think that AI has genuinely impressive capabilities that are likely 102 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 3: to improve further in the coming months and years. I 103 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 3: think the AI industry is likely to be profitable in 104 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 3: the wrong run, and that open AI's basic business model 105 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 3: is perfectly reasonable. But I don't think we're very close 106 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 3: to human level intelligence at all. I don't think AI 107 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 3: is about to drive the kind of massive social and 108 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 3: economic changes that AGI pilled folks expect. And then it 109 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 3: gets into some of his reasoning after that that gets 110 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 3: complicated and uses rais in terms that you have to 111 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 3: look up. But there is a crowd out there that believes, well, 112 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 3: kind of what I just kind of what I just said, 113 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 3: but not completely. He believes, Yeah, it's a thing and 114 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,039 Speaker 3: gonna it's gonna come along, and it's it's going to 115 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 3: be impactful, but it's not going to upend society and 116 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 3: our economic models in ways that we need to be 117 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 3: worried about. 118 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: And I hope the more right. Yeah, Yeah, I don't 119 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: think he is. 120 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,919 Speaker 4: I think there is a wide swath of so called 121 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 4: white collar jobs that will vanish. 122 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 1: I'm completely convinced to that there's that. 123 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 3: And then I think a lot of these people, because 124 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 3: they're computer geeks, which in most cases by definition means 125 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 3: you're kind of like not a normal person in society, 126 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 3: I think they vastly underestimate what it's going to do 127 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 3: to relationships and society and coupling and all that sort 128 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 3: of stuff, because there's such outliers as human beings to 129 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 3: start with, and I'm not sure that a lot of 130 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 3: these people even can conceive of thinking about that issue 131 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 3: because they just don't live in that world of like going. 132 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,919 Speaker 1: Out in dating and blah blah blah. 133 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 4: Well, and a lot of opinion leaders are also self 134 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 4: motivated go getters, and so they can't conceive of because 135 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 4: you no longer have to work to take care of yourself, 136 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 4: you become a blob of dinner on weik because they 137 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 4: would find something right. But a hell of a lot 138 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 4: of human beings aren't made like that. Most, Yeah, the 139 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 4: vast majority. And I feel like we've already seen enough of. 140 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 3: The people having relationships with chatbots when it's at its 141 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 3: current level of engagement, that it's inevitable that it becomes 142 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 3: a huge problem. I can't I can't imagine the argument 143 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 3: that says, no, it's not going to be a big deal. 144 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 3: You aren't going to have millions of in cell dudes 145 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 3: who are so obsessed with their AI, chat bot and 146 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 3: porn that they never get with a real woman. 147 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: That won't happen. I don't understand that argument at all. 148 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 4: Right, Oh my gosh, I've got a great think piece 149 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 4: around here somewhere about the rise of that very sort 150 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 4: of young man and how they quickly become embittered and 151 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 4: hateful and for instance, kill Charlie Kirk or try to 152 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 4: put a bullet in Donald J. Trump's head for the 153 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 4: very scenario you were describing, and. 154 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 3: Then then for women, because women tend to be more 155 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 3: about the emotions than most dudes in general. Man, the 156 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 3: getting some sort of comfort from a chat dude that 157 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 3: talks to you about your problems and agrees that you've 158 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,079 Speaker 3: been wrong by your mom and your sister, I just think. 159 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 4: That's gonna be a huge thing, right, just as an 160 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 4: aside as you were a speaking jack, I quickly did 161 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 4: a search on how old is the saying I have 162 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 4: had or the devil's playthings? Or are similar phrasings of 163 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 4: the same thought? And it definitely goes back to the 164 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 4: Old Testament. Sure it's in proverbs. Idle hands are the 165 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 4: d well? It depends which just you know the translation 166 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 4: you have. It endured throughout the early days of Christianity. 167 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 4: Here are a bunch of citations from the medieval period. 168 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 4: Here are early English usages in the fifteen hundreds through 169 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 4: the seventeen hundreds. The wording probably solidified in the eighteenth 170 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 4: or nineteenth century, but the idea itself is at least 171 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 4: fourteen hundred years old, with deep roots in early Christian 172 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 4: moral teaching. It is an idea that has never receded 173 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 4: from human consciousness, that idle hands are the devil's playthings. 174 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 4: And yet we are moving as quickly as possible toward 175 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 4: a mechanism to idle as many hands as possible. 176 00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: That only works, That's true. 177 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 3: It only works because you believe that a lot of 178 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 3: people are not self motivated to do something. The remember 179 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 3: Nancy Pelosi famously saying, this will be a chance everybody 180 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 3: can be an artist or a poet or whatever.

We 220 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 4: can talk about suggesting the Republican Senate do away with 221 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 4: the filibuster. I don't know how much you understand that, 222 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 4: but that is trulliot, don't doli. It's highly troubling. Among 223 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 4: other things we can talk about stay here a strong. 224 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 5: President Trump says enough is enough. It is time to 225 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 5: nuke the filibuster and reopen the government. Here's what he 226 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 5: posted last night on truth Social It's now time for 227 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 5: Republicans to play their Trump card and go for what 228 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 5: is called the nuclear option. Get rid of the filibuster 229 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 5: and get rid of it now. That would allow Senate 230 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 5: Republicans to reopen the government on their own, even though 231 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 5: Senate leaders generally don't like the idea of ending the filibuster. 232 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 5: But pressure is mounting. Troops are getting paid today after 233 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,239 Speaker 5: the Pentagon shifted some funds around, but federal snap benefits 234 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,079 Speaker 5: run out this weekend, and we're already seeing major flight 235 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 5: disruptions in places like Orlando and here in Washington. 236 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 3: That would be a horrible thing to do. To end 237 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 3: the filibuster, Currently, you need sixty votes in the Senate 238 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 3: see and usually need the party with the majority and 239 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 3: a decent handful of the other party. In other words, 240 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 3: the bulk of America needs to agree on something for it. 241 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 1: To pass, is the theory. 242 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 4: And if it's probably the last vestige of Yeah, we 243 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 4: disagree with each other, but we care about the country, 244 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 4: so let's talk about it. 245 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,719 Speaker 1: Probably is as supposed to just naked partisan. Probably is 246 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 1: the last vestige of that. 247 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 3: And if you do away with the filibuster and then 248 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,319 Speaker 3: it just becomes majority rule like it is in the House, 249 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 3: then whichever party holds power in the Senate has fifty votes, 250 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 3: and then if you have the vice presidency, you only 251 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 3: need fifty. We'll just pass everything they want. So the 252 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 3: House will pass it, the Center will pass it, and 253 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 3: there you go. It's a law without any say whatsoever 254 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 3: from the other party, which would. 255 00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: Be horrible, horrible, horrible. 256 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 3: Now, Trump's argument is that the Democrats tried to do 257 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 3: it for three years but couldn't because Senators Joe Manchin 258 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 3: of West Virginia and Kirsten Cinema of Arizona wouldn't vote 259 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 3: for it because they're decent Americans. I also don't think 260 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 3: all those Democrats that voted for it actually meant it, 261 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 3: because I think there are enough institutionalists, grown up Democrats 262 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 3: also in the Senate that Okay, you two are going 263 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 3: to vote against it, Okay, then I can vote for 264 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 3: it to look like I'm for it for my crowd. 265 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 3: I think, you know, a couple would have stepped up 266 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 3: to make sure it didn't pass. We may we're going 267 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 3: to cross the line at some point. I think at 268 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 3: least that's direction all our politics are going, where one 269 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 3: party is going to do with this, away with this, 270 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 3: and Trump's making the argument they're going to do away 271 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 3: with it when they take over the Senate. Then they'll 272 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 3: be able to pack the Supreme Court with whoever the 273 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 3: hell they want. 274 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: Because all you will need is fifty of votes. 275 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 3: And we might as well do it now to get 276 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 3: the jump on them, which is which is the classic 277 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 3: definition what I've been the phrase I've been using for 278 00:14:58,800 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 3: a long time. 279 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: Race to the b I mean, that's just the perfect 280 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 1: race to the bottom. Yeah. I wish I could declare 281 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 1: that those folks are. 282 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 4: Just wrong, categorically wrong, but they might not be it 283 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 4: could be that we're heading toward a future where it 284 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 4: is simple majority for everything, and elections have enormous consequences 285 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 4: and policy swings wildly back and forth. Of course, with 286 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 4: the you know, Congress forgetting its job, forgetting the Constitution 287 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 4: and all of us worshiping the chief executive as something 288 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 4: like a king, we're having wild swings and policy back 289 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 4: and forth. 290 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: Anyway, Well, imagine the kind of just make it worse. 291 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 3: Imagine the kind of judges we might get if you 292 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 3: just need the majority and you've got a strong president 293 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 3: with a big following like Barack Obama. Biden didn't have it, 294 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 3: but like Barack Obama or Donald Trump, where you could 295 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 3: get somebody through fairly extreme, and there'd be a tremendous 296 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 3: amount of pressure to put on your fifty senators to say, 297 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 3: put this person on the Supreme Court. Then we've completely 298 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 3: own up that institution. Also, we get a whack jobs on. 299 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, you might have a handful of senators on the 300 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 4: president's party on his side thinking this person's a monster, 301 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 4: they shouldn't be on the bench. 302 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 1: Right. I hate still get through. 303 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 3: I hate the idea of doing away at the filibuster, 304 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 3: but I do think it's inevitably going to happen. It 305 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 3: just it's the direction everything is going. Wow, and then 306 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 3: we're just going to be majority rule. You might as 307 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 3: well just combine the House and the Senate into one thing. 308 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 3: Five hundred and thirty five members of that. 309 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 4: God dang, that's what the Democratic Socialists of America party wants. 310 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 4: They want to elimination of Senate and just a pure 311 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 4: you know, majority rules, single House. Speaking of which I've 312 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 4: got a zoron Mumdani update coming up later on the show. 313 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: Monadanie. Yeah, I don't. 314 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 3: I don't know where I am on the weather because 315 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 3: I think Trump might be right that it's going to happen. 316 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 3: It'd be better if we do it, then they do it, 317 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 3: and you get no credit through history for. 318 00:16:58,080 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: We weren't the party that did it. It was the 319 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: other part. 320 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 3: That ain't gonna matter when the other party does await 321 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,239 Speaker 3: the fillbuster and then just starts passing whenever the hell 322 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 3: way want to pass. 323 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm of two minds. I'm against. 324 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 3: I would if I were a Senator, I would I 325 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 3: would try to stop this from happening. 326 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree, complains well, especially reminded of conversations go ahead. 327 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: Especially around this. 328 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 3: Trump's argument is to end this shutdown, the freaking shutdown. 329 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 3: You're gonna blow up the damn Senate over the shutdown 330 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,959 Speaker 3: of all things, which is the Democrat's fault. Come on now, no, no, no, 331 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,160 Speaker 3: don't bail them out. The WAPO editorial Board today says 332 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 3: the quickest way to end the shutdown is to have 333 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 3: the Democrats enough Democrats to vote for passing this. The 334 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 3: WAPO Editorial Board, right, yeah, don't do anything much less 335 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,719 Speaker 3: blow up the Senate.

It's become completely clear that his activist staff 381 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:21,120 Speaker 4: just had some very broad perimeters, didn't look at individual parameters, rather, 382 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,880 Speaker 4: didn't look at individual cases at all, and gave pardons 383 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 4: to some really monstrous people and people who didn't deserve 384 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 4: it at all. 385 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 1: But and Biden had no idea of any of it. 386 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 3: So, not surprisingly, the mainstream media, which was involved in 387 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 3: covering for an obviously addled president, is not reporting on 388 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:40,360 Speaker 3: the report that just came out. 389 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:41,959 Speaker 1: But this is a legit report. 390 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 3: This is not like Comer, you know, the Republican committee 391 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 3: member who makes all these claims and then they never 392 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 3: come true. This was the testimony of actual people who 393 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 3: worked in the Biden administration. And I became aware of 394 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 3: this only through Mark Alpern's podcast yesterday. He was losing 395 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 3: his mind over the fact that this was not in 396 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 3: The New York Times of the Washington Post, because this 397 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 3: came out two days ago, and he's like, how is 398 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:07,239 Speaker 3: nobody talking about this? 399 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: Here's what Axios had. This is from Thompson. 400 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:12,880 Speaker 3: He's the other guy with Jake Tapper that wrote the book, 401 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 3: one of the very few journalists in America who was 402 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 3: being honest about Biden's mental decline. Alex Thompson Thompson, Yeah, yeah, 403 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 3: so he wrote this in Acxios. This is from the 404 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 3: report that came out two days ago that's getting no coverage. 405 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 3: Former Biden chief of staff, his chief of staff, Jeff Zeins, 406 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 3: told the panel that he, Jake Sullivan, the NSA advisor, 407 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:38,440 Speaker 3: Anthony Blincoln, the Secretary of State, the Commerce Secretary of 408 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 3: the VIA secretary all expressed concern about Biden continuing his 409 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 3: re election campaign after the debate. Zeins told all lawmakers 410 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 3: that within a few days after the debate, Biden was 411 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 3: aware of my view that I thought it was prudent 412 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,199 Speaker 3: to get out of the race. They didn't think he 413 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 3: was mentally competent to be president. The Secretary of State, 414 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 3: his own chief of staff right didn't think he should 415 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 3: be president at that time, let alone for another four years. 416 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 1: And they all kept their mouths shut, and they kept 417 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:11,919 Speaker 1: their mouths shut. 418 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 3: And that's not a big enough story for the New 419 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 3: York Times of the Washington Poast. As I heard someone describe, well, 420 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 3: they were complicit in the cover up. So how do 421 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 3: they report at this point that it's shocking that somebody 422 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 3: was not saying out loud what was clearly true. So, 423 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 3: like I said, Mark Awpern was losing his mind over 424 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 3: how this is not a big national story that the 425 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 3: secretary of State and the guy's own chief of staff 426 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,159 Speaker 3: knew the guy shouldn't be president, that he was incompetent 427 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 3: and kept their mouths shut. The Democrats should have this 428 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 3: hung around their head for many cycles. 429 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 4: Right right, So, as I started to say at the 430 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 4: beginning of the segment, I mean, there's a part of 431 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 4: me that thinks, you know, we got plenty of problems 432 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 4: now dissecting the past. You know, what good would it 433 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 4: do Biden's hat office and soon to be out of life. 434 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 4: But at the same time, I mean, we've not to 435 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 4: hold people to account it, or even a political party 436 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 4: on some less. 437 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yet it's not about Joe Biden. 438 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 3: But there are a whole bunch of people involved that 439 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 3: plan to continue to be major movers and shakers of 440 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 3: the Democratic Party right that we now know because they testified. 441 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 3: They had to testify, and I'm thinking the only reason 442 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 3: they testified this is because they knew either other people 443 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,119 Speaker 3: were gonna say it, or it's documented somewhere or whatever. 444 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: The freaking secretary of State. 445 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 3: What kind of patriot are you if of the secretary 446 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 3: of State, everything that's going on in the world, a 447 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 3: couple of wars, all the different awful things that could happen. 448 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 3: You know, the guy's not competent to be president of 449 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 3: the United States and can keep your mouth shut. 450 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 5: Don't smesh them in awak unless you want to get 451 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 5: the back. 452 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 3: And part of it, I guess is Trump during syndrome, 453 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 3: they probably that will be better than having Hitler as president. 454 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 4: Part of it was that, and the other part of 455 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:55,479 Speaker 4: it was that people who are closest to Biden, who 456 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 4: are politically very very dangerous, would cut you off at 457 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 4: the knees if you dared break ranks, for instance. And 458 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 4: the fact that this is not like covered a lot 459 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 4: in the mainstream media just shows how incredibly biased they 460 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,639 Speaker 4: are because it's a super interesting political story. Mike Donalan 461 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 4: is a campaign consultant he's been with Biden for nearly 462 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:20,719 Speaker 4: forty five years. People close to Biden. This is in 463 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 4: twenty twenty one in the Washington Post see donal and 464 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:28,120 Speaker 4: is Biden's conscience, his alter ego, a shared brain. One 465 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 4: long time Biden advisor estimated no fewer than ten thousand 466 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 4: times in their working relationship. As the President turned to 467 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 4: Donalin and asked, Mike, what do you think. Closest guy 468 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:44,479 Speaker 4: to Biden had a four million dollar bonus coming if 469 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 4: Biden got reelected. As his campaign consultant, he got paid 470 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 4: four million bucks for getting Biden in the White House 471 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 4: the first time, and if he could keep Biden in 472 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 4: the race, he would earn four million more. Mike Donalin 473 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:04,880 Speaker 4: was the hatchet man behind the nobody says anything scheme 474 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 4: about Biden, and. 475 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: He's under oath. 476 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 4: Here the transcript of the committee's interview with the Donald. 477 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 1: He spells it all out. 478 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:17,400 Speaker 3: Man, if you're cheapest staff to a president and you've 479 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,159 Speaker 3: gone to the guy and said I don't think you 480 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 3: should run for reelection, you can't keep your mouth shut 481 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 3: and let that play out. 482 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, I know. It's terrible. 483 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 3: What if he'd had a crisis that he maybe we did. 484 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 3: Maybe that's the next shoe that's going to drop. Maybe 485 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 3: not for twenty five years when a variety of things 486 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 3: are finally released. But who knows was making variety of 487 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:47,479 Speaker 3: decisions around, you know, our Israel policy or Ukraine policy 488 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 3: or whatever policy it might have just been, you know, 489 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 3: the chiefest staff in the Secretary of State and signing it. 490 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 4: Is there a big historic shoe foot that's going to drop? 491 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 4: Shoot the trubet shoe.

I don't think you could. I don't think you 494 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 3: could because you're implicating yourself as a really bad person. 495 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I guess so. 496 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 4: Speaking of media and politics and that sort of thing, 497 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:18,439 Speaker 4: here's a headline for you. 498 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:19,199 Speaker 1: Bloodbath. 499 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 4: CBS parent company announces mass layoffs, slashes race and culture 500 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 4: unit at CBS.
