WEBVTT - We're Working On That, Dammit! 0:00:01.880 --> 0:00:06.200 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:10.240 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe, Katty. 0:00:10.200 --> 0:00:24.400 Armstrong and Jetty and he Armstrong and Getty. I just 0:00:24.440 --> 0:00:27.360 came across this. I was perusing various Twitter feeds, came 0:00:27.360 --> 0:00:34.920 across Ian Bremer's and he tweeted out. He said, from 0:00:34.960 --> 0:00:38.800 my pal Freed Zakaria, who is due too has a 0:00:38.840 --> 0:00:42.760 show on CNN. They're friends. He said, As someone who 0:00:42.760 --> 0:00:46.000 has criticized much of Trump's chaotic and counterproductive foreign policy, 0:00:46.200 --> 0:00:48.720 I would not hesitate to nominate nominate him for a 0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:56.959 Nobel Peace Prize. And that's around the Israel Hamas Palestinian situation. 0:00:57.520 --> 0:01:00.960 And Ian Bremer said of that, seconded by me, So 0:01:01.040 --> 0:01:05.920 there's two prominent lefty, big time Trump criticizers who think 0:01:05.959 --> 0:01:11.399 he should be winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. Interesting. 0:01:11.440 --> 0:01:14.360 Do you think it's the Hamas conflict or more the 0:01:14.560 --> 0:01:16.520 bringing together the Gulf States? 0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:18.640 And is yeah the whole thing, all of it? 0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:24.560 Yeah, yeah, yeah, far from over. But yeah, interesting, wouldn't 0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:25.160 that be something? 0:01:25.959 --> 0:01:26.199 Yeah? 0:01:26.280 --> 0:01:29.240 Oh, yet Trump's biggest critics would hate that so much. 0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:32.760 Trump is the most mixed mixed bag. 0:01:32.680 --> 0:01:34.399 In political history. 0:01:33.920 --> 0:01:38.640 Oh I'm looking at what we're letting the Houthies get 0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:39.399 away with right now. 0:01:39.400 --> 0:01:41.119 It's horrible. It's unbelievable. 0:01:42.440 --> 0:01:44.640 And Trump's like, well, as long as they leave us 0:01:44.680 --> 0:01:48.320 ships alone, it's not our problem. I think he's wildly wrong, 0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:53.000 completely wrong. Uh, there's more to it than that. The 0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:55.000 Euros need to do better and step up. But the 0:01:55.040 --> 0:01:57.720 idea that we just each country protects its own ships 0:01:57.760 --> 0:01:59.960 and we let the houthis close down the most productive 0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:00.920 shipping lane on Earth. 0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:01.520 It's crazy. 0:02:01.840 --> 0:02:08.399 And Trump's copper tariffs is inexplicable. It's bizarre. I don't 0:02:08.400 --> 0:02:11.400 know what he's doing. There's a thing with Brazil that 0:02:11.480 --> 0:02:14.040 I think is insane. On the other hand, the good 0:02:14.040 --> 0:02:16.560 stuff is so good. I can hardly believe it's happening. 0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:20.880 What he said about weapons of Ukraine. He told NBC 0:02:21.080 --> 0:02:23.960 this in an interview. That will run and meet the press. 0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:26.400 We'll have that for you after we do this. Yeah, 0:02:26.400 --> 0:02:29.040 one more thing. It's not clear to me yet, the 0:02:29.120 --> 0:02:32.480 whole Zoran mom Donnie thing. It might be a flash 0:02:32.520 --> 0:02:35.440 in the pan and people say who in like two years, 0:02:36.120 --> 0:02:39.000 or it could be one of the biggest political movements 0:02:39.040 --> 0:02:41.080 on the left we've seen for a very long time. 0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:43.080 I don't tell you why I'm saying. I do think 0:02:43.120 --> 0:02:46.000 he's gonna end up mayor in New York. But yeah, 0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:47.680 well it could be more than that. But to stay 0:02:47.680 --> 0:02:49.880 with us, please. But first, it's the Friday tradition. It's 0:02:49.880 --> 0:02:51.680 time to take fond look back at the week it was. 0:02:51.960 --> 0:03:01.440 It's cow clips of the weekd of the Gorilla, Henry Whips. 0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:01.560 Of the Week. 0:03:03.200 --> 0:03:05.440 You guys need to get off the board. You're not 0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:13.040 scaring anybody. Come on, man, yes, man, I wish I 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:14.560 ate a couple more. I'm sorry, guys. 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:19.560 Yeah, I exceeded ots by twenty five percent, retaining customer growth. 0:03:20.400 --> 0:03:24.440 The TSA saying effective immediately, all passengers will be able 0:03:24.440 --> 0:03:28.120 to keep their shoes on through security. The company saying 0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:31.519 some individually wrapped crackers may be incorrectly labeled as cheese 0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:33.519 that may have peanut butter inside. 0:03:34.120 --> 0:03:35.560 He go guy. 0:03:36.520 --> 0:03:38.800 They called this area flash flood Alley. 0:03:39.240 --> 0:03:45.800 Four months of rain fell in a matter of hours. 0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:43.640 My god. 0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:49.880 Right now they're popping off deer gas canisters and folks 0:03:49.880 --> 0:03:53.600 are just running like crazy and it's just chaos out here. 0:03:54.560 --> 0:03:58.240 The FBI is offering fifty grand to anyone who helps 0:03:58.280 --> 0:04:01.720 them identify and convict a pro who allegedly fired a 0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:07.400 gun at federal immigration officers. I think different. I have 0:04:07.480 --> 0:04:09.720 lovely lines. What are you talking anyway? 0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:13.680 Elon Musk vow to retrain his AI system known as GROC. 0:04:14.480 --> 0:04:16.960 Those changes appear to have prompted Grok to use some 0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:18.239 anti Semitic tropes. 0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:21.760 Elon Musk breaking even more from President Trump, saying he 0:04:21.839 --> 0:04:23.560 will create the America Party. 0:04:24.240 --> 0:04:27.040 We're gonna have a UFC fight. We're gonna have a 0:04:27.200 --> 0:04:29.919 UFC fight. Think of this on the grounds of the 0:04:29.920 --> 0:04:30.520 White House. 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:35.400 The letter I sent to the Nobel Prize Committee, it's 0:04:35.440 --> 0:04:37.960 momon in you for the Peace Prize, which is well deserved. 0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:41.200 We get a lot of emotion thrown at us by 0:04:41.240 --> 0:04:42.479 poop the. 0:04:42.560 --> 0:04:46.640 Russian leader unleashing his largest aerials sold yet on Ukraine. 0:04:47.360 --> 0:04:48.920 So who are last week? 0:04:49.279 --> 0:04:50.560 I don't know what? Don't you tell me? 0:04:51.640 --> 0:04:53.719 What does it say that such a big decision could 0:04:53.720 --> 0:04:55.520 be made inside your government without you knowing? 0:04:57.120 --> 0:04:59.839 I would know if a decision was made. I will know. 0:05:00.920 --> 0:05:03.760 President Trump now saying the US will resume weaponship ins 0:05:03.760 --> 0:05:04.360 to Ukraine. 0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:24.360 Hey, come on, man, how about that? 0:05:24.360 --> 0:05:29.480 What was the tuneless singing at the end. Wow, all 0:05:29.520 --> 0:05:32.160 those people pouring out their love to Ozzie and then 0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:33.680 Joe attacks him like that. 0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:38.160 Well, honestly, it was fairly terrible in his elderly ears. 0:05:38.000 --> 0:05:43.120 And we never did get to this. So and you 0:05:43.200 --> 0:05:45.919 heard a little bit of eclipse of the week. So 0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:51.320 originally Trump was asked several days back about the whole 0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:55.279 pause and weapons to Ukraine. He said he didn't order it. 0:05:55.279 --> 0:05:57.760 Who did? I don't know? You tell me. Then he 0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:01.960 was asked more about it. I like clips sixty three there, Michael, 0:06:02.400 --> 0:06:08.920 and I heard this decoded. It doesn't make any sense 0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:10.240 when you hear it the first time. Go ahead. 0:06:10.480 --> 0:06:14.400 So yesterday you said that you were not sure who 0:06:14.600 --> 0:06:18.240 ordered the munitions halted to Ukraine. Have you since been 0:06:18.279 --> 0:06:19.120 able to figure that out? 0:06:19.240 --> 0:06:21.440 Well, I haven't thought about it, because we're looking at 0:06:21.600 --> 0:06:24.880 Ukraine right now and munitions. But I no, I have 0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:25.800 not gotten into it. 0:06:26.440 --> 0:06:28.520 What does it say that such a big decision could 0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:30.400 be made inside your government without your knowing. 0:06:31.440 --> 0:06:34.159 I would know if a decision was made. I will know. 0:06:35.080 --> 0:06:37.200 I'll be the first to know. In fact, most likely 0:06:37.240 --> 0:06:39.760 I'd give the order. But I haven't done that yet. 0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:45.880 So that was a typical Trump like nonsensical statement. You know, 0:06:46.120 --> 0:06:48.640 he is so good at that, and he gets away 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:51.240 with it in a way that nobody else can for 0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:52.600 some reason, I. 0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:54.680 Think partly because people think, how to hell with this? 0:06:57.760 --> 0:06:58.839 I thought this was interesting. 0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:03.240 So Joe Scarborough the other day on MSNBC said that 0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:08.600 was that message from Trump was to heg Zepp and others. 0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:13.840 Decisions this big do not get made by anybody but me. 0:07:14.800 --> 0:07:18.480 That's what the point of that convoluted statement was. 0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:28.840 Ah, and with an unspoken because Trump often will fire people, 0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:33.840 but he waits till you know, the heat is off. 0:07:34.960 --> 0:07:38.040 Then he you know, so he's not seen as reacting, 0:07:38.480 --> 0:07:43.280 but he was absolutely saying you will be canned if 0:07:43.280 --> 0:07:43.960 you do that again. 0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:46.720 Yeah, that's what Scarborough said. He said, I think it 0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:50.240 was a decisions like that only I make decisions like that, 0:07:50.280 --> 0:07:52.400 and if anybody makes a decision like that again without 0:07:52.400 --> 0:07:55.080 my knowledge, they will be going which. 0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:57.840 And maybe the people who already did it are going 0:07:57.920 --> 0:08:01.920 to is my point. That was so convoluted nobody could 0:08:01.920 --> 0:08:02.760 possibly follow it. 0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:03.720 And I apologize. 0:08:04.320 --> 0:08:09.400 But yeah, interesting, Yeah, that's fine that this sort of 0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:15.120 wrestling for power and influence and the flow of decision making. 0:08:15.160 --> 0:08:17.200 It happens in every White House. It's just a little 0:08:17.240 --> 0:08:18.360 more public than Trump's. 0:08:19.160 --> 0:08:21.679 So I don't know if books will ever be written 0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:25.640 about any of this, because, as I've said many many times, 0:08:25.680 --> 0:08:28.920 Trump uniquely kind of just everything is in his own head. 0:08:29.080 --> 0:08:30.800 I don't know if he's having He's not like writing 0:08:30.840 --> 0:08:35.439 a lot of books about this or any I don't 0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:37.400 know if he's having long discussions with people. I think 0:08:37.400 --> 0:08:40.560 this is all inside his own head. How did it 0:08:40.600 --> 0:08:43.520 take him so long to figure out what Putin was 0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:46.560 and come to this decision? Anyway? Trump does an interview 0:08:46.559 --> 0:08:48.560 with Christian Walker, which will air in its entirety on 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:50.800 Meet the Press on Sunday, but parts of it have 0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:55.480 already come out and promos by NBC. Trump previewed that 0:08:55.480 --> 0:08:58.640 he would make a major statement on Russia on Monday, 0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:02.120 with no additional detail. Yet, I'm disappointed in Russia, he 0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:04.480 said a major statement to make on Russia on Monday. 0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:07.440 So the fact he said I'm disappointed and I've got 0:09:07.440 --> 0:09:09.559 a major statement to me means that it's going to 0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:13.720 be about that. Sure, you know, in time? 0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:17.920 Was he ever appointed? That's been my my. 0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:18.840 Question all along? 0:09:18.920 --> 0:09:22.320 How are you disappointed in Putin? He did precisely what 0:09:22.360 --> 0:09:23.880 Putin does and always has. 0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:29.320 You're disappointed? How are you ever appointed? And also this 0:09:29.600 --> 0:09:30.320 asked about I. 0:09:30.320 --> 0:09:32.920 Mean being disappointed in my dog for not passing a 0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:36.200 calculus test. How the hell did I ever have the 0:09:36.240 --> 0:09:40.200 idea that he would? But again, Trump is Trump. 0:09:41.400 --> 0:09:45.959 Very much like that. It's exactly like that. Also asked 0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:52.040 about weapons for Ukraine. Uh, we're sending weapons to NATO, 0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:54.440 Trump said, And NATO is paying for those weapons one 0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:58.040 hundred percent. The President told NBC We're going to be 0:09:58.080 --> 0:10:01.920 sending patriots to NATO, and the NATO will distribute that. 0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:08.280 So the patriot missiles we are going to be providing, 0:10:08.480 --> 0:10:12.319 I guess. And what the big announcement is on Monday. 0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:15.320 I assume it's going to be about the sanction. So okay, 0:10:15.840 --> 0:10:18.839 and a whole bunch of people died in Ukraine last night, 0:10:18.920 --> 0:10:21.960 with a continued onslaught from Putin. He is not backing 0:10:22.000 --> 0:10:23.920 down at all. Where this is going. I don't know 0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:27.200 Putin assassinated. I think we got a clip about this, 0:10:27.320 --> 0:10:33.240 but Putin's people, I'm sure Putin called the shot. Assassinated 0:10:33.280 --> 0:10:36.640 a top Ukrainian spy in Kiev the other day. I 0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:39.240 don't know if you've seen that video, the guy's walking 0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:42.280 out of his apartment complex there in Kiev looks like 0:10:42.320 --> 0:10:45.000 a neighborhood committee. Or in the United States, somebody runs 0:10:45.080 --> 0:10:49.120 up with a gun, shoots him five times, sticks a 0:10:49.160 --> 0:10:53.040 gun in the shorts, and runs off. Wow. And Ukraine, 0:10:53.080 --> 0:10:56.000 if you don't remember, has assassinated a whole bunch of 0:10:56.280 --> 0:10:59.319 people in Moscow, a couple of generals, a couple of 0:10:59.320 --> 0:11:02.040 people in charge of various munitions, things that they took 0:11:02.080 --> 0:11:05.960 out over the last year. So both sides can reach 0:11:06.000 --> 0:11:08.360 the other side, I guess they really want to. But 0:11:08.559 --> 0:11:12.640 the main point being, Butensnome showing zero signs of backing down. 0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:14.880 In fact, he's ramping up, so I don't I don't 0:11:14.880 --> 0:11:15.520 know where that's going. 0:11:15.920 --> 0:11:19.559 Also, this hour is Mundami the kamie just getting started. 0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:22.720 The comment it's the first time I've heard anybody say that. Really, 0:11:22.760 --> 0:11:24.160 that's a plus. 0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:28.400 Speaking of communists, Harvard is exploring a new center for 0:11:28.559 --> 0:11:36.520 conservative scholarship to counter well to reach a settlement with 0:11:36.559 --> 0:11:40.760 the Trump administration. Interesting stuff. I've heard a number of 0:11:41.840 --> 0:11:45.680 pundits who are usually fairly careful about throwing around terms 0:11:45.720 --> 0:11:52.120 like communists say Mandami is a communist government run grocery stores, 0:11:52.160 --> 0:11:54.559 and we're going to seize the means of production. What 0:11:54.600 --> 0:11:57.560 else do you need? New York is going to elect 0:11:57.640 --> 0:12:01.640 an actual communist as mayor and perhaps several more. 0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:04.040 Wow, that is something among other things on the way 0:12:04.080 --> 0:12:05.960 stay here. 0:12:08.679 --> 0:12:12.520 America is reportedly on the verge of a French fries 0:12:12.559 --> 0:12:15.240 shortage for real because of all the cold, wet weather 0:12:15.320 --> 0:12:18.640 this year, fewer potatoes are expected. This really tells you 0:12:18.679 --> 0:12:20.000 all you need to know about how we eat in 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:22.800 this country. The two artist foods in America to get 0:12:22.960 --> 0:12:27.080 are French fries in the popeye'es chicken Satewe. 0:12:27.400 --> 0:12:32.400 It's National French Fry Day, which means nothing what it is. 0:12:33.840 --> 0:12:38.080 We talked a little bit about this yesterday. Sunday is 0:12:38.120 --> 0:12:41.280 the one year anniversary of Trump nearly having his head 0:12:41.320 --> 0:12:45.720 blown off by an assassin, and it's making me remember 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:50.040 that cold, crazy period. It would it had been just 0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:57.400 what ten days after Biden blew up his presidency with 0:12:57.440 --> 0:13:01.160 that debate. So Trump gets shot on a set. Is 0:13:01.200 --> 0:13:03.360 this one of those episodes where you can remember where 0:13:03.360 --> 0:13:04.840 you were? Do you remember where you were when you 0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:07.080 got the news? Anybody? Yeah? I do you do? 0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:07.400 Yeah? 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:10.400 I was on the freeway and my friend called me, Yeah, 0:13:10.600 --> 0:13:12.920 did somebody in our text chain alert us? 0:13:12.920 --> 0:13:13.120 All? 0:13:13.559 --> 0:13:15.000 I think that's how I found out. I think it 0:13:15.040 --> 0:13:18.040 was me. Actually, yeah, I think it was you too, Michael. Anyway, 0:13:18.040 --> 0:13:21.160 I flipped on the television and started watching, and like, 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:23.480 I think I got on the TV before he was 0:13:23.520 --> 0:13:27.400 even on his feet. But yeah, I absolutely remember where 0:13:27.400 --> 0:13:29.600 I was. And then my son, who suffers from all 0:13:29.679 --> 0:13:32.280 kinds of anxiety everything, was running around the house in 0:13:32.320 --> 0:13:34.200 a panic and worried something was going to happen to us. 0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:35.960 I had to calm him down. But yeah, and then 0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:37.600 within a couple of hours, I was on a bunch 0:13:37.600 --> 0:13:41.120 of different radio stations because Glored knows people need my 0:13:41.160 --> 0:13:45.640 punditry after a major historical event like that. But it 0:13:45.679 --> 0:13:48.280 was the next freaking day that Joe and I got 0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:53.880 on airplanes and flew to the convention, which is just stunning. 0:13:54.000 --> 0:13:56.360 I mean that all that happened in that period of time, 0:13:56.559 --> 0:13:58.280 And I remember I was sitting next to a guy 0:13:58.280 --> 0:14:00.640 who does security who had a T shirt. 0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:05.040 Twenty four hours later was wearing a T shirt that 0:14:05.960 --> 0:14:08.520 had a picture of Trump with the bloody face and the. 0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:11.560 Fist in the air. Quickly that stuff got out there. 0:14:11.800 --> 0:14:15.040 And then two days later, after he gets shot, he 0:14:15.080 --> 0:14:17.400 walks into that arena in Milwaukee. 0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:21.560 We were there, and the crowd goes nuts those two 0:14:21.640 --> 0:14:22.080 days after. 0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:22.480 I mean, that. 0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:26.120 Period of time at the USA Today's that's the front 0:14:26.120 --> 0:14:28.280 page story today. Just kind of looking back on that 0:14:28.360 --> 0:14:31.680 and interviewing various historians, so like, wear this ranks is 0:14:33.240 --> 0:14:36.520 major events in US history because it's just a stunning 0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:41.400 little period of time. Yeah, I mean, you can't overstate 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:46.080 its power and significance, and a bunch of the historians 0:14:46.120 --> 0:14:48.240 saying and it continues to this day, and how it 0:14:48.280 --> 0:14:53.040 brought in, really brought in Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg 0:14:53.080 --> 0:14:55.320 and a number of other people they quote who brought 0:14:55.320 --> 0:14:58.600 them in, if not completely into the fold, like Elon Musk, 0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:01.800 but like much closer to Trump, just for a variety 0:15:01.840 --> 0:15:03.400 of like human emotion reasons. 0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:06.320 Yeah, And as you've pointed out more than once. You know, 0:15:06.360 --> 0:15:09.240 there's the expression the dog that didn't park, it was 0:15:09.280 --> 0:15:14.600 the nuclear bomb that didn't go off. Trump not being 0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:19.800 murdered on live TV. I mean, just I you can't imagine. 0:15:19.920 --> 0:15:21.840 You can, you can take a shot at it, but 0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:25.560 you can't imagine the chaos, the ugliness, the horror, the 0:15:26.000 --> 0:15:28.880 instability that could have echoed for decades. 0:15:29.280 --> 0:15:35.000 Oh my god. Yes, yeah. But he walked into the 0:15:35.000 --> 0:15:38.720 arena two days later, didn't say anything. Remember, they just 0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:40.160 announced him and he came in and he had the 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:42.360 big bandage on his ear and the crowd went nuts. 0:15:42.400 --> 0:15:46.560 And he had he looked, he looked affected. And then 0:15:46.920 --> 0:15:50.080 by Thursday we were we were there for that. I left. 0:15:50.480 --> 0:15:52.200 I went over and had some key lime pie at 0:15:52.200 --> 0:15:55.760 the restaurant run around the corner from the building. It's 0:15:55.840 --> 0:16:01.440 not surprising as a gay. Now, Uh, go ahead, you 0:16:01.480 --> 0:16:03.600 see did you use your pocket fork? I have my 0:16:03.680 --> 0:16:07.680 fork right here, I have my keep it normal. That 0:16:07.800 --> 0:16:10.920 is not even it's not normal. It's not normal to 0:16:10.960 --> 0:16:14.480 carry a fork with you, a big metal fork, come 0:16:14.480 --> 0:16:18.200 in contact with a pie. But I remember he gave 0:16:18.280 --> 0:16:20.200 that speech. That was what the It was the longest 0:16:20.240 --> 0:16:23.440 speech anybody'd ever given for an A nomination acceptance. It's 0:16:23.440 --> 0:16:26.160 like two hours long, hour and forty five. It was 0:16:26.200 --> 0:16:28.720 something insanely long. It was so long. 0:16:28.800 --> 0:16:30.760 I listened to an hour of it, caught an over, 0:16:31.520 --> 0:16:34.080 got back to the hotel, turned on the TV and 0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:35.440 he was just getting warmed up. 0:16:35.760 --> 0:16:38.000 Oh my god, it's not a crazy beach. And he 0:16:38.040 --> 0:16:46.080 walked over there and he hugged the firefighter. Yeah, oh man. Else, 0:16:47.000 --> 0:16:50.680 the whole the whole week was just it's surreal. It 0:16:50.760 --> 0:16:51.360 really was. 0:16:52.120 --> 0:16:52.360 Yeah. 0:16:53.280 --> 0:16:55.440 I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot of one year 0:16:55.440 --> 0:16:57.840 anniversary look backs over the next week or whatever. But 0:16:57.880 --> 0:16:59.640 I wanted to bring it up just because the shooting 0:16:59.640 --> 0:17:03.760 was a year on Sunday. Holy crap, what an event 0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:06.360 in US history. And like I said yesterday, not one 0:17:06.400 --> 0:17:08.280 in a million people would have reacted the way he 0:17:08.359 --> 0:17:11.800 reacted in that circumstance. He's just such a unique individual. 0:17:12.119 --> 0:17:13.639 We have more to commons to hear. 0:17:15.400 --> 0:17:16.560 Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:19.760 Everything is what you put into it. And there's an 0:17:19.800 --> 0:17:24.000 expression in tech which is garbage in, garbage out, and 0:17:24.040 --> 0:17:26.639 that's really what's happening here. If you program it a 0:17:26.680 --> 0:17:29.160 certain way, it will respond in a certain way. AI 0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:32.480 is people. If you really think about it's data about people, 0:17:32.520 --> 0:17:34.600 and whatever you tune it to do, it will do. 0:17:35.160 --> 0:17:38.440 Huh. Okay, okay. 0:17:39.000 --> 0:17:43.919 It's like an extremely impressionable child. But it seems it 0:17:43.920 --> 0:17:47.679 can pick up anything, any habit, any idea. 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:52.439 Well, that's interesting and interesting thought but it's you know 0:17:52.520 --> 0:17:56.440 the fact that Elon had called out Google for their 0:17:56.520 --> 0:18:01.680 AI being so woke, and he was trying really hard 0:18:01.720 --> 0:18:06.040 to not have his AI be influenced by people, and then. 0:18:06.400 --> 0:18:12.560 It drew a toothbrush mustache and started to command Germany 0:18:12.720 --> 0:18:13.280 in essence. 0:18:14.240 --> 0:18:17.400 Anyway, here's a little more of that person on CNN 0:18:17.480 --> 0:18:19.000 talking about AI and Elon. 0:18:19.720 --> 0:18:21.720 He's building something else here that has to do with 0:18:21.760 --> 0:18:25.679 the data and the information collected and using it for 0:18:25.800 --> 0:18:29.320 various things. They just linked up Tesla with Groc, and 0:18:29.359 --> 0:18:31.920 so you're starting to see sort of what's coming into view, 0:18:31.960 --> 0:18:35.480 which is he's trying to create an AI that does 0:18:35.560 --> 0:18:39.040 things for you but is not focused on Twitter anymore. 0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:41.439 Really, there's Groc in my cyber truck. What is it 0:18:41.480 --> 0:18:45.000 going to be doing? Trying to keeping you, trying to 0:18:45.040 --> 0:18:46.840 convince me that you aind the Nazi Party. I mean, 0:18:46.840 --> 0:18:50.000 I don't know if I need now. Yes, we're working 0:18:50.080 --> 0:18:54.560 on that demit, Yeah, I don't know. I could see 0:18:54.560 --> 0:18:56.680 it being useful in a variety of ways, but how 0:18:56.680 --> 0:19:01.399 it all is meshed together can mansion. So I was 0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:04.080 listened to this theory before we move on to the 0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:05.840 I was listened to this theory and I need to 0:19:05.960 --> 0:19:10.840 there's apparently there was a who's involved in the podcast 0:19:10.880 --> 0:19:15.280 Peter Thal one of the old PayPal billionaires and another 0:19:15.359 --> 0:19:18.480 super smart guy. Anyway, it was the idea that if 0:19:18.520 --> 0:19:22.000 you believe there is something else beyond you know, what 0:19:22.040 --> 0:19:27.040 we all experience, you know, another plane of reality, God, 0:19:27.119 --> 0:19:31.879 the afterlife, whatever is it is? Is it reaching to 0:19:31.960 --> 0:19:35.800 us through AI? Is it like, is it somehow AI 0:19:36.000 --> 0:19:37.399 tapping into that and it is? 0:19:37.960 --> 0:19:40.600 Which No, No, it's just computers that can answer questions. 0:19:42.040 --> 0:19:43.119 But thanks for us. 0:19:45.480 --> 0:19:47.760 Wait a minute, so I'll listen to that podcast and 0:19:47.760 --> 0:19:49.840 get back to you because I don't quite understand the premise, 0:19:49.880 --> 0:19:53.720 but that's what they're going with. Yeah, yeah, wow, No, no, 0:19:53.800 --> 0:19:56.080 it's not. It's just it's a it's an outgory and 0:19:56.119 --> 0:19:58.040 then it goes with the next indicated word. 0:19:58.400 --> 0:20:02.760 So it's good at helping you plan vaga. Oh there's 0:20:02.800 --> 0:20:06.480 something else you said. I wanted to comment on and 0:20:06.600 --> 0:20:09.400 it flitted out of my head. All right, well, let's 0:20:09.400 --> 0:20:13.919 just move on. Maybe it'll come back. Zoran Mamdani Mandani 0:20:14.160 --> 0:20:19.359 the Kami. He is likely to be the next mayor 0:20:19.359 --> 0:20:21.879 of New York City, the most important city on Earth. Arguably, 0:20:22.359 --> 0:20:25.880 maybe not as all the money people and I predicted this, 0:20:26.720 --> 0:20:30.639 but it's freaking obvious, so I don't get much credit. 0:20:31.320 --> 0:20:33.440 All the money people in New York. 0:20:33.600 --> 0:20:38.480 Have held frantic all night meetings saying, all right, who 0:20:38.520 --> 0:20:41.800 are we backing, Let's figure this out, but quick then 0:20:41.880 --> 0:20:44.399 let's give him enough money to do whatever they want. 0:20:44.960 --> 0:20:48.720 So they beat the friggin communist. That can happen. See 0:20:48.800 --> 0:20:51.479 Joe Biden. I mean, you know, in case you don't remember, 0:20:51.520 --> 0:20:54.879 he finished like in seventh place in every state leading 0:20:54.960 --> 0:20:58.280 up to South Carolina before the money people, the powerful 0:20:58.280 --> 0:21:00.000 people said all right, we can't. 0:20:59.800 --> 0:21:02.359 Have Bernie or Elizabeth be the nominee. All right, so 0:21:03.040 --> 0:21:07.240 what are we going to do here? So sometimes that happens, right. Indeed, well, 0:21:07.520 --> 0:21:11.760 similar thing is happening in New York, and some greater urgency. 0:21:11.880 --> 0:21:15.080 I have a feeling was lent to it when it 0:21:15.119 --> 0:21:19.760 became clear that allies of the Kami, who unexpectedly won 0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:24.800 the city's Democratic mayoral primary, they're plotting primary challenges against 0:21:24.840 --> 0:21:29.959 all of the city's top Democratic incumbents, including Haakim Jeffries, 0:21:31.280 --> 0:21:33.919 the minority leader of the House of Representatives. 0:21:34.640 --> 0:21:35.240 Let's see that. 0:21:35.720 --> 0:21:39.239 The CNN reported Mamdanni's allies, notably key leaders of the 0:21:39.240 --> 0:21:45.480 Democratic Socialists of America who are freaking America hating communists. 0:21:45.800 --> 0:21:49.720 They are dangerous. They are bent on the overthrow, violent 0:21:49.880 --> 0:21:51.679 or otherwise of the United States government. 0:21:51.720 --> 0:21:53.080 I am completely convinced of that. 0:21:53.359 --> 0:21:57.040 Anyway, they're talking about running primary challengers against Jeffries and 0:21:57.160 --> 0:22:01.560 several other incumbents, including a representative Richie Torri's Jerry Nadler, 0:22:01.600 --> 0:22:05.240 who's a waste of his considerable amount of skin, Dan Goldman, 0:22:05.359 --> 0:22:06.720 and Yvette Clark. 0:22:06.880 --> 0:22:13.119 It's considerable mode of skin slip bat in there. I 0:22:13.119 --> 0:22:13.359 don't know. 0:22:13.760 --> 0:22:16.240 Uh. The intraparty tensions come at a precarious time for 0:22:16.280 --> 0:22:19.920 Democrats who are facing plummeting approval ratings and struggling to 0:22:20.000 --> 0:22:22.160 rally behind a national leader ahead of the twenty twenty 0:22:22.160 --> 0:22:27.200 six midterms. So they are absolutely on the front foot 0:22:28.160 --> 0:22:31.040 Mamdani and the Democratic Socialists of America, and they are 0:22:31.080 --> 0:22:34.600 determined to take over a substantial part of New York's 0:22:35.000 --> 0:22:36.400 congressional representation. 0:22:36.600 --> 0:22:39.280 So that's an interesting angle. And then the Wall Street 0:22:39.359 --> 0:22:43.240 Journal editorial board yesterday they had this article, Chuck Schumer's 0:22:43.359 --> 0:22:50.640
