I am 9 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 2: pro safety. 10 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 3: I worked for years to raise awareness about the mercury 11 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 3: and toxic chemicals and fish, and nobody calls me. 12 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 2: Is obsessed with pro testers interrupting. It's just I don't 13 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,320 Speaker 2: sound it fascinating. I find it the least bit interesting 14 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 2: when somebody stands up to and then they lead them out. Okay, fine, 15 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 2: you don't think it's interesting that a single human being 16 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 2: was willing to shout no. 17 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 4: I find the protests, unless something happens, the least interesting 18 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 4: thing going on today. I have been watching some of 19 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 4: this during the commercial breaks RFK Junior being grilled and whatnot, 20 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:31,839 Speaker 4: and there's a lot of interesting stuff there, mostly from 21 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 4: the He has gone around making really strong statements about 22 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 4: stuff because and I'll be I'll give the most generous 23 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 4: version I can, because it's a good way to get 24 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 4: attention and get a reaction. 25 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 2: And I don't mean just get a reaction from a 26 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 2: kind of childish way, but it's a good way to, like, 27 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 2: you know, get the argument going. It's sort of what 28 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 2: it works for Trump. I think we should get out 29 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 2: of NATO. 30 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 4: I don't think he had any attention get out of NATO, 31 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 4: but he starts strong hiring him for donating, you know, 32 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 4: donating spending more of the money that they had more 33 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 4: mandated to spend. You know, you get the conversation going. 34 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 4: That's not the way everybody handles these things. I'm not 35 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 4: sure it's the best way, but Trump makes that work 36 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 4: all the time. And RFK Junior is doing a lot 37 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 4: of the same sort of stuff, but he is having 38 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 4: to answer for a whole bunch of these things that 39 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 4: he has said over the years. We got a good 40 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,079 Speaker 4: one coming up in a little bit where he is 41 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 4: specifically asked about his famous statement from just like a 42 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 4: year ago, sixteen months ago on the Lex Friedman podcast, 43 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 4: where he said there's no safe and effective vaccine. 44 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 2: We'll get that one on for you. He also has 45 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 2: said at various times, if there's one thing I could 46 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 2: redo in my life, it'd be go back and not 47 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 2: have my children vaccinated because his cousin, Caroline, Sweet Caroline 48 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 2: Kennedy came out yesterday and said he goes around telling 49 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 2: you not to get your kids vaxed, and he got 50 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 2: his kids vexed. He says it's the biggest mistake of 51 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 2: his life life. All right, I don't know. Well, what 52 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 2: is proof of that is? We have other Kennedy clupes 53 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 2: that aren't protests many. Okay, I want to hear some anything, Yes, 54 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 2: start with twenty Michael. 55 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 3: Today, American's overall health is in grievous condition. Over seventy 56 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 3: percent of adults and a third of children are overweight 57 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 3: or obese. Diabetes is ten times more prevalent than it 58 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 3: was during the nineteen sixties. Cancer among young people is 59 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 3: rising by one or two percent a year. Autoimmune diseases, 60 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 3: neurodevelopmental disorders, Alzheimer's, asthma, ADHD, depression, addiction, and a host 61 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 3: of other physical and mental health conditions are all on 62 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 3: the rise, some of them exponentially. 63 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 2: The United States. 64 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 3: Has worse health than any other developed nation. Yeah, we 65 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 3: spend more on healthcare, at least double and in some 66 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 3: cases triple as other countries. 67 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 2: That's what I was talking about at the very beginning 68 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 2: of the show. He regularly says we have the most 69 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 2: unhealthy children in the world. Is that true or not? 70 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 2: And I would love it if they got down to 71 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 2: the brass tax of that. And if that's true, why 72 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 2: the hell is that true? I happen to be doing 73 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 2: a medium dive during the commercial break into some of 74 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 2: those statistics, and boy, it gets a little hairy. It 75 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 2: depends which stat you're talking about. But there are number 76 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 2: stats like frequently you'll hear about how America has the 77 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 2: highest infant mortality rate among development Western economies, and that's 78 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 2: it's because we have a different standard for reporting them. 79 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 2: Because we are so good at saving premis. We count them. 80 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 2: Other countries they don't count them at all. It's easy 81 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 2: to manipulate stats like that, which it's not to say 82 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 2: our systems perfect. There doesn't need reform of COACT. I 83 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 2: do know about that particular stat but just in general, 84 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 2: do we have more ADHD anxiety among our kids stuff 85 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 2: like that than any other country in the world. I'd 86 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 2: love to know that, or even if it's all Western 87 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 2: societies that have the same lifestyle as ours, and it's 88 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 2: its skyrocketed the way we all know it has. Yeah, 89 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 2: that should be like the highest priority to figure that out. 90 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 2: Two things that are in conflict with each other, because 91 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 2: that's okay, that's what life is all about. Number One, 92 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 2: RFK does some pretty good work in identifying, you know, 93 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 2: trends and problems and pointing out that we really need 94 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 2: to deal with him as a society. That doesn't mean 95 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 2: he is the right guy to be in charge of it, 96 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 2: but that's what the senators are looking into. I have 97 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 2: some issues with the guy, but that's fine. But the 98 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 2: second thing is kind of in the other direction. He 99 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:47,359 Speaker 2: does make a really good point that we have had 100 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 2: person after person, administration after administration just kind of go 101 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 2: along to get along in spite of these horrific trends, 102 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 2: and that the idea of zero sum budgeting or shake 103 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 2: things up or starting from square one or reassessing everything 104 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 2: we're doing is so foreign to Washington, d C. That's 105 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 2: the opposite of DC culture, which is go along to 106 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,239 Speaker 2: get along and grow your turf. 107 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 4: How would there not be some sort of pressure from 108 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 4: a company that's making billions of dollars off of their 109 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 4: vaccine to not look into vaccines to hey, leave the 110 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 4: vaccines alone. 111 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 2: How would that? You know, It's just it flies in 112 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 2: the face of human nature, doesn't it. Yeah? Well right, yeah, 113 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 2: And I think one of our case points. And again 114 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 2: this doesn't prove he's the right guy for the job, 115 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 2: but I think he's right about it is to a 116 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 2: large extent when it comes to big pharma or big 117 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 2: food or the various other you know, the hospital monopolies, whatever, 118 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 2: it's like there's a defensive attorney, but there's no prosecuting 119 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 2: attorney because the CDC isn't it and the FDA they're 120 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 2: known to be kind of suspect in certain ways. And 121 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 2: what he's saying is we needed a prosecuting attorney who's 122 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 2: not a persecuting attorney, but a prosecuting attorney representing we 123 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 2: the people, to make sure we're getting a square deal. Something. 124 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 2: Can ask him about the bear in the park. I 125 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 2: think that'll come up. Yeah, they'll ask him. Is that 126 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 2: the funniest thing ever? Because I think it was Okay, 127 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 2: Hanson grabbed this one. This is a good one. He 128 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 2: just whispered in my ear in. 129 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 5: A podcast in twenty twenty. You said, and I quote, 130 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 5: you would do anything, pay anything to go back in 131 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 5: time and not vaccinate your kids. Mister Kennedy, all of 132 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 5: these things cannot be true. So are you lying to 133 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 5: Congress today when you say you are a pro vaccine 134 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 5: or did you lie on all those podcasts? 135 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 2: We have all of this on tape, by the way, Yeah, 136 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 2: a senator. 137 00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 3: As you know, because it's been repeatedly debunked, that statement 138 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 3: that I made on the Lex Friedman podcast was a 139 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 3: fragment of this statement. 140 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 2: He asked me, and. 141 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 3: Anybody who actually goes and looks at that podcast and 142 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 3: we'll see this. He asked me, are there vaccines that 143 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 3: are saving effective? And I said to him some of 144 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 3: the live iris vaccines are, And I said there are 145 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 3: no vaccines that are saving effective. And I was going 146 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 3: to continue for every person, every medicine has people who 147 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 3: are sensitive to them, including vaccines, right, So he interrupted 148 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 3: me at that point. I've corrected it many times, including 149 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 3: on national TV. You know about this, Senator Widen, So 150 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 3: bringing this up right now is dishonest. 151 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 4: So I would like to listen to that because that 152 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 4: sounds like exactly the whole Trump bloodbath thing. 153 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:55,679 Speaker 2: Yes, that's what it sounds like. Yeah, I got to 154 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 2: tell you, as a citizen and I'm sure there are 155 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 2: folks listening who feel the same. I feel like RFK 156 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 2: Junior is a bit of a loose cannon and a 157 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 2: bomb truck, a chucker and maybe half a con man 158 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 2: who's right about a lot of stuff. And the people 159 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 2: on the other side are utterly dishonest too, or greed heads. 160 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 2: And I'm just not sure what to believe. See, I 161 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 2: don't want to say he has said in the past. 162 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 2: I'm gonna say there are claims that he said in 163 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,439 Speaker 2: the past, because sometimes things aren't taken out of context. 164 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 2: We saw it endlessly with Trump during the campaign, where 165 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 2: the mainstream media would state Donald Trump promised a blood 166 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 2: bath if he loses. No, he didn't. 167 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 4: He said the electric car market would be a blood 168 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 4: bath because it's an economic term. I mean, as big 169 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 4: a lie as you could possibly have in terms of 170 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 4: presenting information to people. So maybe that's going on in 171 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 4: some of these cases here. But which of these stances 172 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 4: was I about to refer to on the abortion when 173 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 4: this just happened. And maybe we'll get the tape later, 174 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 4: but this just happened, RFK Junior. I agree with President 175 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 4: Trump that every abortion is a tragedy. So he's trying 176 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 4: to soften his stance on being pro choice. 177 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 2: Maybe we'll hear some of that coming up. He does 178 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 2: have a number of those issues out there, as I 179 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 2: mentioned earlier, Mark Alpern in his newsletter, and he talks 180 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 2: to a lot of senators. He believes it's three quarters 181 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:25,319 Speaker 2: likely that RFK Junior does get confirmed today, gets enough 182 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 2: or out of this whole process today and tomorrow gets 183 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 2: enough Republican votes to get across them, which is surprising 184 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 2: to me. Right, Yeah, and certainly it could be said 185 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 2: the President nominated the guy. He's really smart, unless there 186 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 2: are just glaring deficiencies. Give him a try, see what happens. Well, 187 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 2: I mean, it's not like we're appointing him king. 188 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,959 Speaker 4: Well, right, I don't like this idea that if he 189 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 4: gets confirmed, he will all automatically announce no more vaccines 190 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 4: and now kids aren't getting there LEO vaccine and nobody's 191 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 4: going to school. 192 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 2: No, that's not gonna happen, So calm down. Yeah, yeah, 193 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 2: I'm not comfortable with the guy anyway, But I don't know. 194 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 2: It would take the rest of my week to go 195 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 2: through every claim and counterclaim the bombs he's chucked. Then 196 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 2: when he walked it back and what he actually believes. 197 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 2: I don't know that the waters become so clouded, which 198 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 2: is the actual object of misinformation, by the way, and 199 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 2: true and propaganda. It's not to convince you of something specific. 200 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 2: It's to get you to the point where you don't 201 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 2: know what to believe, and so you don't believe anything, 202 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 2: which is a shame. I was going to go through 203 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 2: a couple examples. He said, the CIA killed his uncle 204 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 2: JFK was killed by the CIA, Sir Hen. 205 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 4: Sir Hen did not kill his father RFK. The two 206 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 4: thousand and four presidential election was stolen. He defended Putin 207 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 4: in the invasion of Ukraine. There's a lot of examples 208 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 4: out there of things he said. Now, is he just 209 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 4: trying to be provocative, make a point, get an argument going. 210 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 2: I don't know. Meat producers in America are a greater 211 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,719 Speaker 2: threat to the United States and democracy. That don't sew 212 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 2: him a bid lot. 213 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 4: In his Terra network, he's accused climate deniers of being 214 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 4: traders and proposed they face criminal prosecution if you claim 215 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 4: that climate change isn't the thing. 216 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 2: There's a lot of these out there now. So he's 217 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 2: a climate change superhero. Huh. The pushback on that, because 218 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 2: I got an email from a longtime listener of our show, 219 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 2: is these people who are saying that he said these 220 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 2: things are in the pocket a big pharma or have 221 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 2: their own issues. I don't know. 222 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 4: I haven't done the deep dive on figuring that out. 223 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 4: I have a feeling that a lot of that is 224 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 4: going to be delved into Delvin delved We will delve 225 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 4: into that, yes, delved into today between Republican and Democrat centers. 226 00:12:58,520 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 2: We'll have some more on the way if you have 227 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 2: a common and I'd be interested in what you think. 228 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 2: Text Line four KFTC. 229 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 6: Medical breakthrough dub the holy Grail of fertility research could 230 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 6: allow for a baby to be made by just one person. 231 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 6: So it's been real, man, we had a good run. 232 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 2: Take care of y.

Dumb dads became the thing in sitcoms in 253 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 4: like the nineties and the two thousands. But every ad 254 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 4: it's the mom holding the family together and dad, dad 255 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 4: can't figure out how to do this, or brun the 256 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 4: TV or what's in the fridge, or dads can't do anything. 257 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know. The dad. The dumb dad guided 258 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 2: by the wise woman has been a trope for a 259 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 2: long time, but it's become like the exclusive way to 260 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 2: present dads in the last forty years. Would I would 261 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 2: just top of my head, what is one of the 262 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 2: main things the radical left rails against all the time, 263 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 2: the patriarchy? And if you portray any male as wise, kind, loving, 264 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 2: any positive attribute whatsoever in any way, right, Yeah, exactly, Yeah, 265 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 2: you have set back the great war for humanity that 266 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 2: the political left is so hardcore to win. To overturn 267 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 2: society as it is in usher in a Marxist utopia, 268 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 2: you've got to undermine every aspect of society that currently 269 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 2: has respect and power. 270 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 4: Imagine any commercial where the woman can't do something, get 271 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 4: the TV going, or fix the car, or help the 272 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 4: kids with homework. 273 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 2: Pick a topic. I saw my first one and saw 274 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 2: my fun boy. I don't know what it was, it's 275 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 2: it's that great campaign for one of your insurance companies. 276 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 2: I think, wouldn't it be great if there were backups 277 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 2: in real life and the first couple were the guy 278 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 2: who couldn't quite back the trailer into the driveway and 279 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 2: they say Jones come in, and they bring in an 280 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 2: NFL star who backs in successfully. Wouldn't it be great 281 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 2: to have backups. They had. The third one I've seen 282 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 2: was a woman who's struggling with the taxes and they 283 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 2: called for a backup. The backup came in and did 284 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 2: the taxes for and she's like, wow, I just I'm 285 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 2: struggling today. And they're funny and nice commercials, but it 286 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 2: struck me. I was like, oh my god. They did 287 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 2: one with a woman, but it was a mail. It 288 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 2: wasn't the dad, It wasn't the husband stepping in to 289 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 2: fix the problem. No, gotcha. Oh no, not to assume 290 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 2: he is an idiot. Yeah, that would be like shocking 291 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 2: to the system. Well, a woman can't do something and 292 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 2: the dad can. Well, oh this is awful. Well I 293 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 2: tell you what, Let's have a bet and it'll never 294 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 2: pay off. So you can bet as much as you want. 295 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 2: You wait for the first time that happens, and I'll 296 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 2: wait for the first show that has a black criminal 297 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 2: victimizing a white person. So not using the DJ term anymore. 298 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 2: I don't like it. It's insulting and not good for America. 299 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 2: We got a lot on the way of continuing to 300 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 2: watch the RFK junior hearing. If anything happens that's exciting 301 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 2: will bring that to you. We got plenty of other 302 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,159 Speaker 2: stuff for you too. An armed foreign force is fired 303 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,679 Speaker 2: on our government and nobody's talking about it for some reason. 304 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 3: Starts our only purpose, one all people share, is to 305 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 3: search for ways to reduce the danger of nuclear war. 306 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 1: In this Oval office speech, President Ronald Reagan outlined his 307 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:39,719 Speaker 1: plans for a missile defense system later nicknamed star Wars. 308 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,639 Speaker 1: On Monday, President Trump signed an executive order to build 309 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 1: a next generation space based missile defense architecture to protect 310 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: the US from threats posed by a new generation of 311 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 1: hypersonic glide missiles. Another indication that space is becoming a 312 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: war fighting domain. 313 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 4: Should be included in that report was named star Wars 314 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 4: by the people who were trying to deride it. Yes, 315 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 4: they were trying to mock Old ron Reagan, for he 316 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 4: saw star Wars now things we need to do this. 317 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 4: If you're old enough to remember that it was seen 318 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 4: as stupid by the mainstream media, it's now accepted as 319 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 4: obviously something that needed to happen. 320 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 2: And it was what five short years ago that the 321 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 2: idea of the space force was just goffawed at by 322 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 2: all of the intelligencia. Trump is so stupid, he thinks 323 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 2: we're going to have what guardians of the galaxy? Man? 324 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:33,679 Speaker 2: Is he stupid? Now? Any country bigger than Guatemala that 325 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 2: isn't exploring defense in the atmosphere in space is insane. 326 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,719 Speaker 2: It's going to be critically important going forward. Let's hear 327 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 2: a little more Jennifer Griffin's report. We need to immediately 328 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 2: begin the construction of a state of the art iron 329 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,440 Speaker 2: Dome missile defense shield which we'll be able to protect 330 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 2: Americans a. 331 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: Reference to israel short range missile defense system, but the 332 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 1: Iron Dome only defense against short range missiles in a 333 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 1: country the size of New Jersey. 334 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:04,160 Speaker 2: It's a metaphor. 335 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,360 Speaker 4: What this is about is, I would say, an agenda, 336 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:12,360 Speaker 4: a broad agenda for trying to get after the spectrum 337 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 4: of air and missile threats. Yeah, and particularly, as she 338 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 4: mentioned in that first clip, the hypersonic missiles that at 339 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 4: least currently I think can get by our systems, which ain't. 340 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:28,400 Speaker 2: Good right right, and has been pointed out many times already. 341 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 2: He says, iron Dome. It's a metaphor. It's a very 342 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 2: different system than Israel would have. But to not thoroughly 343 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 2: explore technological opportunities to deflect aggressive acts by bad actors. 344 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 2: Why in the name of heaven would you not do that? 345 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 2: I don't there's no argument. And if it turns out 346 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 2: it's going to be cataclysmically expensive, all right, fine, well 347 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,640 Speaker 2: then we'll get those studies and think, yeah, I guess 348 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 2: we don't have the money or we will. But anybody 349 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 2: who poo poose this as a moron should be quiet. Oh, 350 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 2: speaking of being a attack from foreign baddies. To point 351 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 2: out yet again how the mainstream media is utterly incompetent 352 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,160 Speaker 2: and biased. Is the fund's gone out of it? It's 353 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:14,479 Speaker 2: just so obvious at this point. But the border patrol 354 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,959 Speaker 2: has come under fire several times in recent days from 355 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 2: Mexican drug cartels. Foreign armed groups are attacking our people 356 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 2: on our soil on a semi regular basis. Now point 357 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 2: out to me, please, when in the history of humankind 358 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 2: in any nation that sort of thing has been fundamentally ignored? Ever, 359 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 2: I'll wait, is it? Because once you acknowledge that a 360 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 2: bunch of things, big things need to happen, and we're 361 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 2: trying to get it settled before you have to do 362 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 2: those big things. But the complicity of the New York 363 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 2: Times in this, for instance, is are they being quiet 364 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 2: about it because they want to? I think the diplomacy 365 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 2: work beyond the scenes. I think that would be just, uh, 366 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:13,400 Speaker 2: you don't want to portray anything from Mexico as bad, right, 367 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 2: because that seems I don't know nationalists. I've I've heard 368 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 2: of these Christian nationalists and how dangerous they're white support 369 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 2: racists or at the very least in agreement with Trump. Yeah, yeah, 370 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 2: and I could go into detail, but trust me when 371 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 2: I say there are heavily armed these trucks that look 372 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 2: a lot like you know, our are fighting vehicles, super 373 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 2: heavy duty all terrain with a machine gun mounted on 374 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:40,120 Speaker 2: the top of them, and soldiers quote unquote working in 375 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 2: and around them occasionally squeezing off multiple shots. That are 376 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 2: people along the border. Is any good? It's It's absolutely shocking, 377 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:53,439 Speaker 2: totally totally different topic, and I've wanted to talk about this, 378 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 2: you know, it occurred to me. I think I've got 379 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 2: the perfect metaphor for Trump in his administration, because you know, 380 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 2: he he does stuff that's not a good idea at times, 381 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 2: and he nominates people in my mind that are terrible 382 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 2: nominees just because they kissed his ass or they were 383 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 2: loyal to him and and you know what, either of 384 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 2: the Senate sens were no on this one, like Matt Gates, 385 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 2: who was a terrible choice from the beginning, or have 386 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 2: you watched a workout in the end. Matt Gates was 387 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:22,479 Speaker 2: on Bill Maher's Basement show for like a Knowledge. I 388 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 2: want to tune that in that to be interesting. Bill Maher, 389 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 2: a comedian Friday Night hbo Hoo sas this other show 390 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 2: that he does where he's basically sitting in the basement 391 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 2: and talks to people length. It's like a podcast on video. 392 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 2: But he had Matt Gates on, so I want to 393 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 2: check that out. Yeah, it was Gates drinking and burning 394 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 2: one down with the mar which some teenage girls. I 395 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 2: don't know. Oh see, that was out of bounds, right, 396 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 2: there was it? Out of bounds? You're the chiefs. Anyway, 397 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 2: getting back to my main point, this headline Trump signed. 398 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 2: Oh I came up with a perfect metaphor for Trump 399 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,199 Speaker 2: because he's doing so many things that are just so great. 400 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 2: But he creates, he hands his opponent's clubs to beat 401 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 2: him with, and frequently steps on his own messaging and 402 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 2: the rest of that. He's like a great gifted musician 403 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 2: but whether it's personality or drugs or liquor or whatever, 404 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 2: you're never quite sure if they're going to do the 405 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 2: right thing for themselves and the band and whatever else. 406 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 2: He's incredibly gifted. He's got the don't give a damn 407 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,400 Speaker 2: that's necessary to confront well, the swamp and all these 408 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 2: entrenched practices and bureaucracies and budgets and the rest of it. 409 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 2: He doesn't care. And he is in a brilliant way 410 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,439 Speaker 2: confronting that stuff like it had to be confronted, but 411 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 2: never is. At the same time, you'll nominate a Matt Gates, 412 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 2: and he just reminds me of musicians I've known who 413 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 2: are just brilliant, but they keep getting in their own way. 414 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:58,400 Speaker 2: And the question is will his brilliance win the day 415 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 2: over the long term? Are Willy finally, you know, step 416 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,679 Speaker 2: in it badly enough that you know that either the 417 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 2: support falls apart or they can impeach him or whatever. 418 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,159 Speaker 2: It'll be interesting to watch. But speaking of the great 419 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 2: things he's doing, Trump signed. The headline is Trump signs 420 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 2: Executive Order protecting children from chemical and surgical gender mutilation, 421 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 2: which is so much more an accurate headline. It's from 422 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 2: the National Review than you would ever see about gender 423 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 2: affirming care in the most of the mainstream media. But 424 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 2: Trump issued the executive order yesterday to ban the chemical 425 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,160 Speaker 2: and surgical mutilation of children, known among progressive id logs 426 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 2: as gender affirming care. The act will cut back federal 427 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 2: funding for medical institutions that provide puberty blockers, hormone therapies, 428 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 2: and surgical mutilations to minors. Trump declared in the order, 429 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 2: and I quote across the country today, medical professionals are 430 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 2: maiming and sterilizing, absolutely true, a growing number of impressionable 431 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,080 Speaker 2: children under the radical and false claims that adult el 432 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 2: can change a child's sex through a series of irreversible 433 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 2: medical interventions. This dangerous trend will be a stain on 434 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 2: our nation's history and it must end. Ah, that is 435 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,360 Speaker 2: very true. And also that puts US in step with 436 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:19,879 Speaker 2: most of Europe. Oh yeah, yeah, we are like wildly 437 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 2: radical on this stuff compared to Europe, which innovated a 438 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,160 Speaker 2: lot of it quote unquote, then did careful actual studies 439 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,679 Speaker 2: of the results of it and realized a lot of 440 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 2: the positive claims were fraudulent. And any reasonable study of 441 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 2: this stuff shows that it is a permanent and B 442 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 2: shows no signs of actually helping people's long term mental health, 443 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:43,159 Speaker 2: and it's not going to I've said this before, and 444 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 2: I will stand by these words. And if there are 445 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:49,159 Speaker 2: rare cases of quote unquote gender dysphoria that don't fit this, 446 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 2: I will listen and I will learn, and I will 447 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 2: admit it the moment I'm convinced it's true. Okay, there 448 00:25:56,080 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 2: are a lot of people that are alienated oncometrible, neurotic, afraid, anxious, depressed, whatever, 449 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 2: in including myself at times, and the idea of becoming 450 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 2: a completely different person is so incredibly intoxicating. And Jack, 451 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 2: you've talked about this, you know, in conjunction with substance 452 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 2: abuse and stuff like that. Sometimes people just think if 453 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 2: they change where they are or the house they have, 454 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 2: the car they have, the woman or man they're married 455 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 2: to or with, if they can just change that, they 456 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 2: will be happy, they will fit in, they will be 457 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 2: popular at the rest of it. It's incredibly alluring. And 458 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 2: if you get a confused adolescent it was unpopular, autistic, anxious, 459 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 2: terrified of womanhood or puberty or whatever, one hundred different things, 460 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 2: and you sell them on the idea that hey, you're 461 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 2: actually a different person, a different person who will get 462 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 2: all sorts of a approval and love and you'll be popular. 463 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 2: Look you even saying you're curious about changing your sex 464 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 2: they say gender, even just hinting that you're thinking about it. 465 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 2: Look at all this approval and love you've gotten online. 466 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 2: Wait a minute, you're somebody different and everyone loves you. 467 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 2: That is what's happening here. And when a couple of 468 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 2: years down the line they realize, oh my god, I've 469 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 2: allowed myself to be mutilated. I can never have children. 470 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 2: I'm unhappy and precisely the same ways that I used 471 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 2: to be, But now I'm a dude who looks slightly 472 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 2: like a woman. Great, that's not a solution. Yeah, you 473 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 2: get the encouragement, and you're being called brave. Who wants 474 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 2: to walk away from being called brave, especially as a 475 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 2: confused adolescent to pray on? I mean, people who prey 476 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 2: on like confused oldsters and steal their life savings are 477 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 2: rightfully seen as monsters. Monsters, but people who for idea 478 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 2: logical reasons do the same thing to confuse adolescents and 479 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 2: to call them brave and use the techniques I've been 480 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,400 Speaker 2: describing and then when they show up to the clinics, 481 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,880 Speaker 2: don't do any counseling whatsoever. They don't ask them, Oh 482 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 2: you were raped as a child. That might have a 483 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 2: role in your fearing puberty. Oh you're autistic, Oh you 484 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,640 Speaker 2: have underlying psychological problems. They don't even ask those questions. 485 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 2: Those people are monsters. I prefer the people stealing from 486 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,919 Speaker 2: old people because at least I get their brand of evil. 487 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 2: End of screed. So the new Transportation Secretary just put 488 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 2: a big knife in the whole evy mandate thing. Thank 489 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 2: God or sanity, Yeah, more sanity, cut the crap or 490 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 2: whatever you want to call it. 491 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 4: What did Trump call it? The return to common sense 492 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 4: or something like that. Love it got a couple examples 493 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 4: of that. Also, are you downloading that new Chinese AI app? 494 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 2: Why are you doing that? 495 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 4: But a little more information about that, stay tuned. 496 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 3: I don't want to take food away from anybody. If 497 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 3: you like a cheesebag McDonald's cheezburger, which my boss loves, 498 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 3: you should be able to get them. If you want 499 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,479 Speaker 3: to eat hostest dwinkies, you should be able to do that. 500 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 3: But you should know what the impacts are on your family. 501 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 2: And on your house.

Aren't the ingredients everywhere? Aren't they 504 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 2: already posted on all that stuff? It's hard for me 505 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 2: to imagine somebody who doesn't understand the ramifications of eating 506 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 2: a bunch of that and swinging down a bunch of pop. 507 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 4: Sometimes starting the conversation is I don't know enough, but 508 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 4: a big deal. A lot of the talk about processed 509 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 4: food and what's in food and everything like that comes 510 00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 4: from RFK Junior going around the country talking about it. 511 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 4: A lot of the national conversation around this he got going, 512 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 4: no doubt. 513 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I almost feel like with RFK Junior, you have 514 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 2: to like make clear, all right, everything we talk about 515 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 2: in reference to him is on its own. It's not 516 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 2: a leap toward therefore he should be in charge of everything, right, 517 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 2: it's just a sub discussion. And to that point, that's 518 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 2: absolutely true. My God, look at look at us as 519 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 2: a people. We're fed up, pardon me, in terms of 520 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 2: our health and our diets and all sorts of things psychology, 521 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 2: for whatever reasons, at least, let's talk about it all 522 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 2: the time. How many times have we uttered the sentence 523 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 2: or the phrase Jack. This ought to be the biggest 524 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 2: story in the world. We ought to be talking about 525 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 2: this every single day. Well we're talking about it more so. 526 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 2: He's still testifying right now. 527 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 4: RFK Junior very tan and Hanson pointed out good point, Hanson, 528 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 4: he's not wearing He's a very stylish guy. I was 529 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 4: actually thinking watching him, I need to get a custom 530 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 4: My suit's custom made. Because you get your suit's custom made, 531 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 4: they just fit you better, you just look better. 532 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 2: He's a Kennedy, though I'm not a Kennedy. That's why 533 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 2: I buy off the wreck. 534 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:10,560 Speaker 4: But he's wearing the same suit that his dad and 535 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,239 Speaker 4: uncle war back in the early sixties, even though that's 536 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 4: not really the style right now. The super skinny tie 537 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 4: and that collar. He just wants to evoke the whole 538 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 4: Kennedy thing. 539 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 2: Very clever. I wonder if he has to get those 540 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 2: special made, because that's. 541 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 4: Not really what people are wearing, but nobody gets I 542 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 4: need the early sixties. 543 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 2: Kennedy suits and they make them for him. Look sharp. 544 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,479 Speaker 2: He's a little two tan. I feel like it if 545 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 2: you got the white hair and you get that tan, 546 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 2: whoo I'm hearing racism there or something. 547 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 4: A couple of quick things that are actually important. First 548 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 4: of all, this our new transportation secretary. Name him off 549 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 4: the top of your head, you can't. It's Sean Deffy. Duffy. 550 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 4: He acxed Biden's Cafe Fuel Economy Standards caf E. 551 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 2: It's a whatever. It is an acronym for something. It was. 552 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 4: It's an acronym for government forcing you an electric car. 553 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 4: And he acts those and he said it's needlessly driven 554 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 4: up the cost of all cars in order to push 555 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 4: a radical green New Deal agenda, which is absolutely true. 556 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 4: So now these car companies aren't going to have to 557 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 4: make a whole bunch of cars that they know nobody's 558 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 4: going to buy, and of course, how do they pay 559 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 4: for them. They have to raise the price of all 560 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 4: the other cars that you actually do buy. I know 561 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 4: this from a guy who owns a car dealership. I 562 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 4: have to have this number of electric cars on my 563 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 4: lot to be part of my fleet, to be in business, 564 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 4: and nobody wants them. 565 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 2: And as we've gone over many times, the net environmental 566 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 2: effect of electric cars is unknown at best. Right, good point, 567 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 2: different topic. 568 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 4: So took out a bunch of information yesterday about that 569 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 4: new Chinese AI thing and whether or not it's as 570 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 4: big a deal as everybody says it is or not, 571 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 4: and all that. 572 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 2: I find that fascinating and time will tell. 573 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 4: But it is the number one app in the Apple 574 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 4: Store and the Google Store for androids. 575 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 2: And I don't know why you're all downloading so eagerly 576 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 2: Chinese apps. I don't quite get that. I think it's 577 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 2: just curiosity. In this case, it got so much coverage. 578 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 2: Don't you care about the I care about handing over 579 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 2: every key stroke I make to other, to any even 580 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 2: American companies, lit alone a Chinese place. But so if 581 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,280 Speaker 2: you go on to that new AI thing from China 582 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 2: and ask what happened in Tienaman Square in nineteen eighty nine, 583 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 2: their answer will be I'm sorry, I cannot answer that question. 584 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 2: I'm an AI assistant designed to provide helpful and harmless responses. 585 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 4: If you ask the same Chinese app what happened in 586 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,840 Speaker 4: Ohio in nineteen seventy. In nineteen seventy, Ohio was the 587 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 4: site of a significant historical event, most notably the Kent 588 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 4: State shootings in nineteen seventy. The tragic incident occurred during 589 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 4: a period of widespread protests of the Vietnam War. So 590 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 4: it has it's US history fairly nailed down. It's Chinese 591 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 4: history that everybody knows. That makes the Chinese Communist Party 592 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 4: look bad. 593 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 2: Not so much. Yeah, look like murderous monsters. Yeah, not surprising. 594 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 2: That is going to be man, that's the common future 595 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 2: is I mean, we think that people are bubbled at 596 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 2: countries are bubbled. Billions of people will be bubbled. Oh yeah, 597 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,200 Speaker 2: I was just reading about Kim Jong UN's desperation to 598 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 2: keep the outside world out of North Korean. How that's 599 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 2: getting harder and harder, because if they can pierce the illusion, 600 00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:24,319 Speaker 2: or if the illusion is pierced that they are a 601 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 2: socialist paradise and everybody else is way poorer and way 602 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 2: more miserable than North Korean's, it's all over the scam ends. 603 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:33,400 Speaker 4: Hey, this is really interesting. Let me see if I 604 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 4: can jam this in. This is from the New York Times, 605 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 4: which I don't always agree with. But when the market's 606 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 4: lost a sunning one trillion dollars of value on Monday, 607 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 4: as many economic commentators nihilists are making sense of the 608 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 4: news of the new AI platform, I started thinking about 609 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 4: a serpent eating its own tail. And he talked to 610 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 4: this Harvard Business School, Harvard economist or whatever. I got 611 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 4: to jump ahead here because I thought this is interesting. 612 00:34:56,239 --> 00:35:00,759 Speaker 4: He believes that the investors are flooding the magnificence that'd 613 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,360 Speaker 4: be these seven tech giants that really are driving the 614 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 4: entire SMB five hundred thing, whose valuations currently make up 615 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,720 Speaker 4: over thirty percent of the market capitalization, with cheap money 616 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,279 Speaker 4: making it easy for these forms to pour capital into 617 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:17,879 Speaker 4: investments with each other, And that these companies have been 618 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 4: eating their own tails for the last several years and 619 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 4: that is about to come to an end. 620 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:24,359 Speaker 2: That's a fascinating thought. I don't know if it's true 621 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 2: or not. Speaking of major revelations Next Hour, why everybody's 622 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 2: so anxious and depressed? I've figured it out.
