Very interesting story 16 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 3: here from notice an internal Treasury Department warning is warning 17 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 3: about the dangers of AI. So there's a draft report 18 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 3: that allegedly exists inside of the Treasury Department. It is 19 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 3: set to warn the risk posed by an artificial intelligence 20 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 3: market it liking key aspects of it to dot com 21 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,639 Speaker 3: that upended the US economy in the early two thousands. 22 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,319 Speaker 3: The document, the existence contents of which have not been 23 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 3: previously reported, is actually a huge departure from the public 24 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 3: tone of the administration, which is part of why it's 25 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 3: actually important. 26 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:09,479 Speaker 1: So here's what they write. 27 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 3: Career Treasury analysts found that AI firms are more deeply 28 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 3: entrenched in the US economy than their dot com predecessors 29 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:21,399 Speaker 3: and pose significant risk to the entire system if financial 30 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,199 Speaker 3: conditions change, productivity goals are missed, or various choke motes, 31 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 3: choke points steymi growth, a downturn in the AI market 32 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 3: would send shockwaves throughout the entire economic ecosystem. The report 33 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 3: concludes an AI bubble popping would lead to less of 34 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 3: an immediate crash than the US economy experience in the 35 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 3: early two thousands, but that the companies would cut back, 36 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 3: investors would lose confidence, and the economy would likely grow 37 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 3: more slowly should the industry falter quote stock markets, private 38 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 3: credit markets, companies financing data center buildouts, cloud providers, chip manufacturers, 39 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 3: and utilities would. 40 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 1: All feel the effects. 41 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 3: Trump administration officials have never voiced similar unease in public, 42 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 3: and a Treasury Department spokesperson dismissed the findings as quote, 43 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 3: unvetted and not representative of the agency's policy or views. 44 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 3: Quote the official position of the Secretary and the US 45 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,519 Speaker 3: Treasury is that artificial intelligence will be a key driver 46 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 3: of America's. 47 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: New Golden age. 48 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 4: So they're betting the farm. 49 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 3: This is basically who's who's president dot Com? Was it 50 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 3: Clinton or Bush? 51 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 4: Well? Probably? 52 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 3: Oh it was Clinton, right, So when I think about it, 53 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 3: so it is Clinton. I guess it's a different because 54 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 3: he was completely on. 55 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 4: The way different crashes. 56 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 5: Yeah, in March two thousand is really when it starts 57 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 5: the down. 58 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 4: Yeah. 59 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 3: But if Clinton, I guess Clinton had a future or 60 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 3: al Gore or somebody would be like, the future of 61 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 3: our economy may probably does mean it. 62 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,079 Speaker 4: Was right, the future the econ. It's interesting. 63 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 5: The future of the economy was the internet, right, but 64 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 5: in twenty fourteen, and just like the railroads later, the 65 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 5: future was the railroad. Yeah, but twenty years later the canals. Uh, 66 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 5: the railroads kind of eclipsed the canals. 67 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 3: What I think is interesting is basically just the because 68 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 3: it's we've all been saying this, everybody knows it to 69 00:02:58,800 --> 00:02:59,119 Speaker 3: be true. 70 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 1: Doesn't take a genius to figure it out. 71 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 3: However, having an internal report here which warns about this 72 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 3: against your public positioning. This is the type of stuff 73 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 3: which can come back to bite you. In the ass, right, 74 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 3: Because it's kind of like, if I'm thinking back to 75 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 3: remember the bin Laden in two thousand and one, how 76 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 3: Bush received that briefing in August two thousand and one, 77 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 3: it was like bin Laden determined to attack the United States. 78 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 3: It was totally dismissed at the time, routine part of 79 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 3: the CIA briefing. But then the nine eleven COMMISSI happens 80 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 3: to people were like, hey, oh my god, how could 81 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 3: you have done this? Or let's say in two thousand 82 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,639 Speaker 3: and eight, nobody, I can guarantee you. At the time 83 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 3: of what was a glass Stegal repeal, nobody said a word, 84 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 3: right nobody noway's paying attention. They were like, yeah, whatever, 85 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 3: rubber stamp, it is what it is. After eight, everybody's like, 86 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 3: how did this happen? So I think that this is 87 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 3: an example I think of what the future will look like. 88 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 3: And you know, having a draft report like this which 89 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 3: you dismissed, I mean it's a scandal, right because you're saying, Wow, 90 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 3: you guys knew that this was a problem. 91 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: You didn't do anything to cap any the problems. 92 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 3: You had these career analysts who were warning you this, 93 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 3: this and this right now, it's all gravy. 94 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: I mean, let me check. 95 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 3: You know, where are we at today, AGEAH S and 96 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 3: P futures and this is pretty high. 97 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, the S and P. 98 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 3: Is still up by ten percent year to date, even 99 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 3: though we had a massive, you know, Iran war, horrific 100 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 3: situation in the last year. It's up by twenty one percent. 101 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 3: We're a full boom bowl market and it's like five 102 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 3: years and the S and P is up seventy two percent, right, 103 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 3: So that's insanity. So everybody's in you know, it's just 104 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 3: like the good times. But I was reading a little 105 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 3: bit about dot com several I think it was a 106 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 3: year or two ago, and I did not realize, you know, 107 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 3: if you would invest it at the top of dot com, 108 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 3: the market did not reach that high again until like 109 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 3: twenty thirteen. So thirteen years of a black hole. You're like, 110 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 3: oh my god. So, I mean America has not been 111 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 3: through anything like that. Basically we had that and then 112 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 3: eight and eight. You know, even in terms of the recovery, 113 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 3: it's not the recovery I think that we wanted. So 114 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 3: the fear here Ryan is I think what they talk 115 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 3: about on the back end, it's not about the AI 116 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 3: companies going bust. It's that everybody. All the GDP spend 117 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 3: is AI. The data center built out is AI. A 118 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 3: lot of the you know, big tech companies which compromise 119 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 3: all of the S and P five hundreds to everybody's 120 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 3: retirement accounts is all in Nvidia and Google, in Meta 121 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 3: and all of these other companies whose entire bet is 122 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 3: on AI. I mean, Tesla is now trying to do AI. 123 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 3: SpaceX is an AI company. It's not a rocket company, right, 124 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 3: you know, their biggest driver right now is like selling 125 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 3: Compute to Anthropic, and then Anthropic and Open AI alone 126 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 3: are both going to be two trillion dollars collectively when 127 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 3: they go I PO. So all of that is just 128 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 3: going to make up such a huge part of the 129 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 3: economy where you're exposed no matter what, like, no matter 130 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 3: what you do, no matter what business you're in. And 131 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 3: then that kind of capital crunch which will come in 132 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 3: if there's a downturn, it will have serious, serious problems 133 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 3: for everybody. 134 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, and AI is here to stay. AI is gonna sure, 135 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 5: like you, for better or for worse. But the idea 136 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 5: that there won't be some pullback right at minutes, that's 137 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 5: like what I would rather hear from a Treasury secretary 138 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 5: is like, yes, when when we have these massive shifts 139 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 5: in our economy, there is always and that Zuckerberg has 140 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 5: said this himself, like he's like, yes, there will be 141 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 5: some multi hundred billion dollar investments that will be a. 142 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 4: Mistake and that will vanish. 143 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, he literally said that. 144 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 5: It's like, okay, fine, at least you're at least you're 145 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 5: clear headed about how in saying this is uh, you 146 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 5: you want to hear if it's whether it's a railroad 147 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 5: boom or you know, the internet one that you're planning 148 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 5: for the pullback and here, okay, there's going to be 149 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 5: a pullback, and here's how we're going to make sure 150 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 5: we get a soft landing US for the entire global economy. 151 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 5: You don't want to hear.

But 178 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 3: if you go back to six, nobody knew what a 179 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 3: credit to fault swap was. Nobody everybody found out in 180 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 3: nine when they're like how did this happen? Right, So 181 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 3: there's all kinds of these products which are swimming out 182 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 3: there and commoditized car loans and all this debt and 183 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 3: who even knows the leverage that exists behind AI? 184 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 1: We have no idea. 185 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 3: I mean, if the Iran War had not happened, the 186 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 3: number one economic story actually would have been all of 187 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 3: these private credit markets. There were all of these private 188 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 3: lines of credit which were being called in by the 189 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 3: big banks. Nobody even knew what was going on. I 190 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 3: believe it's still happening as of today. By the way, 191 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 3: what's also interesting about this is the tone shift in 192 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 3: the AI CEO. 193 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: So let's put this one up here on the screen. 194 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 3: This is C three guys, And what they talk about 195 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 3: here is that big Tech, after public opinion on AI 196 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 3: has dramatically downshifted, is that the tech CEOs Sam Altman 197 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 3: and Dario and Zuckerberg and Jensen are all suddenly not 198 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 3: saying the quiet part out loud anymore. Now it's no 199 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 3: longer AI jobs, Well, AI is going to wipe out 200 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 3: all of your jobs. It's about how AI is going 201 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 3: to grow your job. So quote a year ago, the 202 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 3: message from many business leaders was that AI was going 203 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 3: to wipe out jobs. For the past month or so, 204 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 3: tech CEOs have been striking a more optimistic tone. 205 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 4: In late May, Sam Altman. 206 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 3: Who has previously predicted seismic shift in the workforce, has 207 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 3: now said we've been roughly right on technological predictions and 208 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 3: pretty wrong on the social and economic implications. Soon after, 209 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 3: he told CNBC, our industry underestimated how much we're going 210 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 3: to be able to keep people at the center of everything. 211 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 3: Very big difference, I think Kier and now you also 212 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 3: have here. They say Dario, who in May of twenty 213 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 3: twenty five had said that there will be more who 214 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 3: had made twenty twenty five that AI was going to 215 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 3: eliminate half of all jobs a year later, now says 216 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 3: that companies quote can do the same thing with less resources, 217 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,719 Speaker 3: and that leads to things like layoffs, or they can 218 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 3: do more with the same amount of resources, but that 219 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 3: requires creativity. In a June essay, the executive now writes 220 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,839 Speaker 3: that in giving warning's job displacement, he had wanted policymakers 221 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 3: to have the best chance at adapting. He was not 222 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 3: trying to be a quote profit of doom and did not, 223 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 3: and also wrote the possibility of enduring job loss remained, 224 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 3: so softening the fall if this were to come. 225 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 5: On Friday, we talked about Alex Karp's what people call 226 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 5: the meltdown. That's just an Alex Carp Monologue's not a meltdown. 227 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 5: It's just that's how he talks on CNBC. 228 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 1: It's called autism. 229 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 4: There's a clear. 230 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 5: Moment though in it that is so revealing where he's 231 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 5: so angry at Sam Altman and these others who he 232 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,959 Speaker 5: calls these profits of doom, saying you're going to get 233 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 5: us a wealth tax, and that's what all of this 234 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 5: is about. They feel like they have been too honest 235 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 5: about what the implications of their technology are going to 236 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,559 Speaker 5: be for, particularly the white collar public, which still has 237 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 5: some political purchase in this country, and they're going to 238 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 5: use that remaining power that they have to implement. 239 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 4: A wealth tax exactly. 240 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 5: And he's like, guys, stop talking about how we're going 241 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 5: to make everybody unemployed, because that's making them upset. 242 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 4: And they're going to come for us now. Stop. 243 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 5: So now they're going to lie to you and be like, actually, 244 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 5: this is just a little agent that's going to help 245 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 5: you out in your there's gonna be more jobs. 246 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 4: Don't tax our wealth. 247 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: Don't worry about it. 248 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 5: And in the UK, you know they are they may 249 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 5: they may move. 250 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 4: On a wealth tax. We'll see. 251 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 5: And you know the UK was the first to move 252 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 5: on a progressive income tax one hundred plus years more 253 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 5: than a hundred years ago, and then that kicked it 254 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,239 Speaker 5: off around the rest of the world. And these oligarchs 255 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 5: have very long memories. They hated the income tax when 256 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 5: it came in hit the wealthy, and they are desperately 257 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 5: trying to avoid this wealth tax. I can't get my 258 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 5: head around why somebody like Alice Carr, what's he worth? 259 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 4: I don't even one hundred billion? Who God only knows. 260 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 3: Seven I think probably seven billion. Let's see, like, why 261 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 3: does he care about a wealth. 262 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: Twelve between twelve and sixteen bill. 263 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 5: Okay, twelve and sixteen billion dollars? What's he care a 264 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:51,199 Speaker 5: couple of billion? I mean a couple two percent pay 265 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 5: it back? I mean, look, you're I'm not defending there's 266 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 5: nothing he wants in this world that he can't buy 267 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 5: unless he has some demented. 268 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:05,439 Speaker 3: Well, that's here's the populist argument. What's that is it Steinback? 269 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,479 Speaker 3: It was it Steinback who said the problem with America 270 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 3: is that every person sees themselves something something about like 271 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 3: a dispossessed millionaire, something like that. He said, America will 272 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 3: never have socialism because every American thinks that they're just 273 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:20,319 Speaker 3: a millionaire who hasn't made it. 274 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: I've butchered the quote. 275 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, but I believe that was a seinback quote 276 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 3: from some time in the Great Depression. So there is 277 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 3: an element of it where, I mean, remember what's the 278 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 3: book Thomas Frank what's the matter with Kansas? I mean, 279 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 3: there is a genuine element of it where people are like, hey, 280 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 3: that's not fair. These are titans of industry, these are 281 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 3: titans of you know whatever, they've done all this. 282 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: Great stuff for society. 283 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 3: I think that might have been true even you know, 284 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 3: in the industrialist stage, where you could make an argument 285 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 3: and Carnegie and all those people were building all these 286 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 3: temples to their own ego with the libraries. But these guys, 287 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 3: they don't even pretend like it's all just like we're 288 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 3: going to take your job and we're gonna get filthy rich. 289 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 4: And they need to maybe do a lot. 290 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: Right, So for them, they're like, hey, cool it. 291 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 3: But they're Their best argument that they have is like, well, 292 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 3: it was a billion and now it's fifty million. Soon 293 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 3: it'll be one million or something like that, right, and 294 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 3: so the average guy could be worth a million. And generally, 295 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 3: I mean, the most conservative people in the country are 296 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 3: actually small business owners, right, because they're the ones who 297 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 3: actually manage all of their own taxes. 298 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 1: I get it. It's a literal nightmare having to do 299 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: all of it. 300 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 3: But part of the reason is that that block is 301 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 3: usually because they're the most tax people in the country. 302 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 3: Because of the way that they make money, these are 303 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 3: some of the least tax people in the country. 304 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 4: Generally. 305 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 3: The way that they try to weaponize it is about innovation, etc. 306 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 3: But I think if you look at the polling for 307 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 3: how the people feel about the wealth tax, what it 308 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 3: comes down to is they're like, look, we get it, 309 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 3: maybe it's unfair to tax unrealized gains, but at the 310 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 3: end of the day, we don't give a shit. You 311 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 3: guys are super wealthy. We don't care anymore, right, Like 312 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 3: we need to punish you, and I mean when they're 313 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 3: affecting society in the way that we are. Like, sometimes 314 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 3: the problem is they argue with wealth tax in terms 315 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 3: of like fiscal you know, oh, it wouldn't even be 316 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 3: going to anything for everybody else. They're like, it's purely punitive, 317 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 3: and we're fine with that, right They're like they're like, 318 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 3: we don't care. They're like, we don't care. 319 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:11,559 Speaker 4: Again, you're wasted. We don't like you. 320 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 3: Like that's what they don't understand is people hate them. 321 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 3: And here's here's a good example. 322 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 4: Let's put uh what Steinbeck? I think the quote you 323 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 4: were thinking. 324 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, he called Americans temporarily embarrassed capitalists. 325 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: That's it, That's what it was. It was something like that. 326 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 5: They're like, they're like capitalists, they just don't have any 327 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 5: capital yet. 328 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was like that. He said something. It was 329 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 3: in the Great Depression. I remember he said something. 330 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 5: It's like his essay on the thirties. There, that's the 331 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 5: saga Endorstairs. 332 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 4: I mean, good should go read. 333 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 3: He was a genuinely insightful guy. Let's put see four 334 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 3: up here on the screen. So this griffin found this 335 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 3: one perfect example. Like where are you going to do 336 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 3: stuff like this? You got the Nashville Zoo. It is 337 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 3: now a battleground in the data center race, so let's 338 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 3: talk about it. So before the sun has risen, they say, 339 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 3: a club leopard, no law, no bigger than her hands, 340 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 3: wiggle impatiently, wedding to be fed by the Nashville Zoo's 341 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 3: animal health director. 342 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: The newborn sucks eagerly. It's tiny pause, paddling the air 343 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 1: with every gulp. 344 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 3: But now zoo officials say that a planned data center 345 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 3: just beyond the perimeter quote, could introduce constant noise, light, 346 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 3: and industrial activity that may disrupt the environmental conditions critical 347 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 3: not only for the leopard breeding program, but for the 348 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 3: more than three thousand animals that call the zoo home. Now, 349 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 3: this is a classic nit style debate. Yeah, you're gonna 350 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 3: ruin the leopards. You're gonna introduce all of. 351 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 1: This noise, and you. 352 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 3: Can know what's the what's the argument for it? We'll 353 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 3: talk with This is about the technological innovation. It's a zoo, 354 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 3: it's an animal. Ultimately, it's for our kids entertainment. 355 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 4: Right. 356 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 3: But this is the problem that the AI CEOs have 357 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 3: never gotten to data center for what what are you 358 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 3: doing for me? Right? If you're really wealthy, my stock 359 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 3: is going up, Okay, that's great, right, But for everybody else, 360 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 3: you're like, uh, you say you're gonna replace my job. 361 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 3: I get a bunch of AI slop of kittens turning 362 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 3: into dancing monkeys on my phone. 363 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 4: That's it? 364 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: Like, what am I getting out of this? Right? And 365 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 1: that's fundamentally the problem. 366 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 4: I think what you're getting out of it is your 367 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 4: job getting taken. 368 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, right, Well, according to them, previously except not now. 369 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 3: Oh we've changed our outlook. You actually flagged this. That 370 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 3: guy you had on William Lawrence just has some polling. 371 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 3: Let's put C six up here on the screen. This 372 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 3: is a new favorability that they found. Do you have 373 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 3: a favorable or unfavorable. 374 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: Opinion of data centers? 375 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 3: And in his poll he found nineteen percent favorable seventy 376 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 3: four percent unfavorable. 377 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 4: Yeah. 378 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 5: Man, He's in a three way Democratic primary for in 379 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 5: a swing district which is currently represented by a Republican's 380 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 5: got Tom Barrett Michigan. The other two candidates are kind 381 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 5: of these corporate Democrats who are afraid to say anything 382 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 5: about the data centers. 383 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 4: You know, they're express concerns. 384 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 5: He's like, no, shut down the data centers, data center moratorium, right. 385 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 5: And as a result, according to what looks like you know, 386 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 5: his analysis of his own polling, and I think we 387 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 5: can all agree that it's pretty fair analysis, is that 388 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:12,199 Speaker 5: his opposition to data centers is the thing that is 389 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,679 Speaker 5: elevating him in the primary. He's probably going to win 390 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 5: the primary even though he's the kind of most left 391 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 5: wing candidate in a swing district. And it's because people 392 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 5: are like I don't care if you call him a 393 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 5: socialist or he's a co founder of Sunrise movement. I 394 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,400 Speaker 5: don't care if you call him an ecosocialist. He's against 395 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 5: these data centers. I'm against these data centers. And if 396 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 5: you're a Republican too, that same poll showed that independence 397 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 5: preferred him by nineteen points over the Republican, which that's 398 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 5: ballgame in a swing district if he wins the nomination, 399 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,959 Speaker 5: and if they don't, you know, pummel him with whatever. 400 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,159 Speaker 5: And it's all about the data centers. So independentshy like, 401 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 5: I don't care if you call him a socialist. And 402 00:17:54,880 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 5: they also pulled your attitudes on the Democrats, democratic socialism, 403 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 5: and a bunch of other things. The least unpopular was 404 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,360 Speaker 5: democratic socialism, for it was still a negative. 405 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,159 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, take a look at Utah and this 406 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 3: whole Kevin O'Leary situation. 407 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 1: Well, what just happened? 408 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 3: Mean the Fox News had to apologize he smeared these 409 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 3: people they're worried about getting as Chinese communist. 410 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:17,959 Speaker 1: Activists or whatever. 411 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,120 Speaker 3: And it's like, really, Utah is full of a bunch 412 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 3: of Chinese communist liberals. Utah one of the most conservative 413 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,360 Speaker 3: states in the country, and this is rural. You tak 414 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 3: too about what we're talking about, Like are you joking, dude, Like, no, 415 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,160 Speaker 3: that's not what this is about. And so look, I mean, 416 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 3: I just think for them, you know, you're talking about 417 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 3: the wealth tax AI and all of that. Everybody can 418 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 3: see the number go up, But number go up doesn't 419 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 3: apply as much, right. 420 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 1: It applies when you're worth twelve billion. Twelve to sixteen 421 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: is a lot. 422 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 3: It doesn't apply so much when you're you know, let's 423 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 3: say you what is it, fifty something percent of people. 424 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 1: Don't even retirement account. 425 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 3: So the only number that matters to them that should 426 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 3: go up as wages, which guess what hasn't gone up, 427 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 3: you know, And. 428 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 4: The only number you see gown up is gas. That's 429 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:54,920 Speaker 4: the key point. 430 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 5: Western economies for the last twenty years or so have 431 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 5: been growing at about one percent percent. The richest top 432 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 5: point one percent have seen their wealth grow by way 433 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,679 Speaker 5: more than one percent. That means we don't have a 434 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 5: whole lot more wealth to spread around, so as they 435 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,199 Speaker 5: gobble it up, there's less for everybody else. That is 436 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 5: just unless we can figure out a way to start 437 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 5: growing the economy at ten percent. 438 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 4: The wealth. 439 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 5: The wealthy growing their wealth at ten percent gobbles our wealth. 440 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 4: It's actually more than more than percent. I just gave 441 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 4: you twenty percent and so. 442 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,480 Speaker 5: And as they get richer and richer and richer, they 443 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 5: have to do something with that money. And what they 444 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 5: do is they invested in assets, stock market houses, like commodities. 445 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 5: So they're buying up everything, and the power of exponential 446 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 5: of exponential growth means they will own everything at some point, 447 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 5: not to in the not too distant future unless we're 448 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,399 Speaker 5: on unless we tax their wealth. 449 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 3: All right, let's get to Caroline Leavitt turning down to 450 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 3: Caroline love with the White House Press secretary. So she 451 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 3: was enjoying the Fourth of July festivities with Jesse Waters, 452 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 3: Ryan's old friend who is not even wearing a suit. Yeah, 453 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 3: I mean it is outrighteous. Zaaramam not even wear a 454 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,160 Speaker 3: suit when he's swimming in a pool. What the fuck 455 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,640 Speaker 3: are you doing? Right, But let's put that to the side. 456 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 3: So Jesse Water is sitting down, they're shooting the shit. 457 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 3: We're here with Caroline Lovett, and in that Caroline drops 458 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 3: this nugget on gen Z, her fellow gen Z, how 459 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,120 Speaker 3: they're lazy with silver spoons. In their mouth. 460 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 6: Let's take a listening to come here right now. 461 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 7: Some of these kids, and I call them kids because 462 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 7: they're in their twenties and they've never had real jobs, 463 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 7: and they're complaining things are expensive. Yes, things are expensive 464 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,880 Speaker 7: when you don't have a real job. Do you think 465 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 7: that's getting traction complaining? 466 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 6: Unfortunately I do because this generation, my generation, I hate 467 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 6: to say it, gen Z and those younger than me, 468 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 6: have been raised with just silver spoons in their mouths, 469 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 6: just getting everything handed to them. That's not the values 470 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 6: this country was built on. It was built on meritocracy 471 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 6: and hard work, pulling up your sleeves, pulling yourself up 472 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 6: from your bootstraps, and achieving the American dream. And we 473 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 6: need to protect it with all. 474 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 7: These laziness a little bit. It is it because the 475 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 7: professors said, countries corrupt, it's evil and we just need 476 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 7: to shake them down and tend money out. 477 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 6: It's laziness, and it's the liberal indoctrination. You bring up 478 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 6: a great point about our education system. However, I will 479 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 6: say silver lining. So many parents that I talk to 480 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,400 Speaker 6: across the country are homeschooling, are turning to private education, 481 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 6: are turning towards Christian schools across the country because they 482 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,920 Speaker 6: don't want their children being taught these communists and liberal 483 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,360 Speaker 6: ideas slam down their throats. Why President Trump and our 484 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 6: in the White House has advocated so strongly for school 485 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 6: choice across the country. We want kids to be taught 486 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 6: to love our country. 487 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 4: They should. 488 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 6: It is the greatest country in the history of the world. 489 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:51,120 Speaker 7: All right, isay? You know, if they misbehave, just make 490 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,239 Speaker 7: all these young kids join the army, right, shape them up. 491 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 4: I almost have to send. 492 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,120 Speaker 6: Ran they don't want to come back. That's a good point. 493 00:21:59,280 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 4: Okay. 494 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 3: So if you're a gen z, you're mad about house prices, 495 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,399 Speaker 3: you're mad about gas prices, you're mad about McDonald's prices, 496 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:06,680 Speaker 3: drink price whatever. 497 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 4: Whatever it. 498 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 3: Weed prices, probably that you people are mad about. That's 499 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 3: one I'm not going to fight for you on. But 500 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,719 Speaker 3: you're mad, you're mad, it's because you're lazy and you've 501 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 3: got a silver spoon in your mouth. Now let's put 502 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 3: her clarification up here. She says, I am seeing a 503 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 3: lot of bad faith actors take my comments from this 504 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 3: interview out of context. So here's the full interview. Let 505 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 3: me expound. The interview is about the rise of communism 506 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 3: on the left. I was asked by Jesse Waters why 507 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 3: so many young people are buying the false premise of 508 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 3: free stuff being sold by communist politicians. I answer a 509 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,919 Speaker 3: combination of laziness, yes, and the liberal and doctrination that 510 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 3: has been taking a place in our education system for 511 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,119 Speaker 3: far too long. These far left educators are public students 512 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 3: as of garbage, convincing that hard work and sacrifice won't 513 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 3: pay off down the road because they want them totally 514 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 3: reliant on the government instead. I went on to say 515 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,360 Speaker 3: President Trump is a huge advocate for school choice, blah 516 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 3: blah blah. I care enough about our country to tell 517 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,479 Speaker 3: comfortable truths. It's an undeniable fact a growing number of 518 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 3: young people in our country are falling for the lives 519 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 3: of socialism communism sold to them by anti American politicians 520 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 3: who never built anything, offer no real solutions, or intent 521 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 3: on tearing everything down that makes this country great. At 522 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 3: the same time, it is true that many Gen Z 523 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 3: Americans are hard working, entrepreneurial, deeply patriotic, and it's why 524 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 3: do we protect the. 525 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 1: American dream for them. 526 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 3: That's why I'm honored to work for President Trump and 527 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,160 Speaker 3: on behalf of an administration that is implementing the right 528 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,360 Speaker 3: policies to lower taxes, less regulations, stopping Wall Street from 529 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 3: purchasing single family homes. Trump accounts the deportation of illegal 530 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 3: aliens who are taking our housing and jobs. There is 531 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:35,479 Speaker 3: more work to do, which is why Trump and our 532 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 3: entire administration won't stop fighting to make life better and 533 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:42,160 Speaker 3: more affordable for young people. So here's why I think 534 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 3: that's going to fall very very deaf. She explicitly said 535 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 3: that they're lazy with silver spoons because they're a bitching 536 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 3: about affordability. 537 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 1: And that's a look. Really, I actually. 538 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 3: Think it all comes down to housing, and the more 539 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 3: I meditate on it, the more I talk to people about. 540 00:23:58,040 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 4: It, the more radical I get. 541 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 3: Actually whenever it comes to housing and housing solutions. And 542 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 3: this is where they just it's funny because they talked 543 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,440 Speaker 3: about it endlessly on the campaign. Inflation, inflation, inflation, inflation, right, 544 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,399 Speaker 3: and inflation because that was remember, it was the bedrock 545 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 3: of the affordability conversation, which eventually, you know, leads to 546 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 3: people like Zormumdanni, which is very effectively. Remember his early 547 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 3: ads about the halal carts making it eight dollars again 548 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 3: like those that is exactly what people care about the most, 549 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 3: and it's genuinely what just sucks all the money out 550 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 3: of any of your disposable income. Because people keep pointing 551 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 3: to well, people make more money, it's like, well, things 552 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 3: cost a lot more, right, And then the wage to 553 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 3: income ratio where the wage to price ratio of housing 554 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,440 Speaker 3: compare it to two thousand, nineteen eighty nineteen seven. I mean, 555 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 3: it's exponential compared to where things were before. So for 556 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 3: people who have either student debt or let's say you 557 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 3: didn't go to college and you're looking at your upward mobility, 558 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 3: you do not see the same path that your parents. 559 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 3: That's why so many people live at home with their parents. 560 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 3: Now that's not the American dream. It might be financially prudent, 561 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 3: it's not the dream. No, I don't think anybody wants 562 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 3: to wake up at age twenty nine saying, yeah, I 563 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 3: live at home, you. 564 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 4: Know, with mom or dad. 565 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,440 Speaker 1: I have no ability upward mobility. 566 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 3: I have no ability to even foresee being able to 567 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 3: buy a home to achieve any sort of independence. And 568 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 3: then they complain about people saying, you know, falling for 569 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 3: free stuff or whatever, it's like, well, in some cases, 570 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 3: part of the reason why you may go in that 571 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,399 Speaker 3: more radical direction is because the middle path, which was 572 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 3: always told that was going to be achievable for you, 573 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,159 Speaker 3: you know for a fact, is not financially attainable in 574 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,199 Speaker 3: this moment in time, especially if you live in a 575 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 3: medium the high cost of living area. 576 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 5: It's incredible to think that Jesse Waters is the lead 577 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:50,199 Speaker 5: primetime host of the biggest kind of right wing news outlet, 578 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 5: and Levitt is the spokesperson for the president, the president 579 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 5: of the United States. So these are effectively the two 580 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 5: leadings spokespeople for what was sold to the American public 581 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 5: as a populist movement. 582 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 3: And not just sold, I mean they it actually worked, 583 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 3: Like people under one hundred thousand dollars voted for trying right. 584 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 4: Absolutely. 585 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 1: That has never happened before with the Republican ever. 586 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 5: Right, So they successfully sold that to people, and if 587 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 5: you listen to them now, it is the most bankrupt 588 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:27,400 Speaker 5: reactionary Like it's just like Midmos just yelling at people 589 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,239 Speaker 5: for being lazy, like are you like, what even is this? 590 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 4: And also just so like like watching those two intellectual. 591 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 5: Heavy weights go back and forth like batting around these 592 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 5: like these high ideas is just kind of uh, well. 593 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:44,439 Speaker 1: Did you notice that if they complain that we're going 594 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 1: to send them. 595 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 4: To Cuba, to Cuban irun Like, come. 596 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 3: On, that's like Czarist Russia.

So you're talking about insane amounts 692 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 3: of wealth in this one tiny little city, which is 693 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 3: Nimbi to hell. 694 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 4: This is what happens now. 695 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 3: San Francisco is a very extreme example, but it is 696 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 3: also the rest of the nation. If you take a 697 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 3: look at the places which build the least housing, of 698 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 3: course you see massive increases in home values. And at 699 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 3: the same time you have the boomers who live in 700 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 3: those homes. Their only lobbying is to make sure that 701 00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,320 Speaker 3: they have to pay less in property tax. 702 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 1: They don't care. 703 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 3: In fact, most of them lobby against building any new housing. 704 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 4: And I am not one. 705 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 3: Of these yimbie insane people who's like, oh, we should 706 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 3: just build ugly glass apartments everywhere, Like I don't think 707 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 3: that's family friendly or any of It's great if you're 708 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 3: twenty two years old, but if you're thirty two, like, 709 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 3: what are we doing here?

But there's no federal government program. There's 713 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 3: no state program. If you try to build it in 714 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 3: a dense neighborhood, God help you. 715 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: The boomers. 716 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 3: They will do everything to try into torpedo.

I just read a great story in 720 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:05,959 Speaker 3: the Wall Street Journal yesterday boomers who are bragging about 721 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 3: living in schools that they grew up in. So they're 722 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 3: taking schools which have been decommissioned because the fertility rate 723 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 3: has gone down, and now converting the school into luxury apartments. 724 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 3: And this woman who's like sixty five years old, So 725 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 3: I grew up here.

That's sick or it's sickness. And 732 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 3: guess why, I bet you should be lobbying for to 733 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 3: drop property text not just you. 734 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 1: Know that one particular one enraged me. 735 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 4: Your property taxes go down if you're home value. 736 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly, there you got that you could 737 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 3: think about that. I don't know, I mean just it 738 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 3: genuinely enrages me because you know, we you know, we 739 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 3: meet a lot of people who do this, you know, 740 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 3: who watch the show and all of a sudden and 741 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 3: this is the number one thing we'll always talk about 742 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 3: every lockdown. 743 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 1: Everybody is locked out. They're like, man, how's it? 744 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 3: And you know, you know when people pull in, they 745 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 3: you know, they profile people in the story who are 746 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 3: making like four hundred thousand dollars in San Francisco and 747 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 3: they're like, can't afford it, literally can't afford it. They're like, 748 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 3: they applied for a five thousand dollars a month apartment 749 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 3: and there were thirty eight people will apply to the 750 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 3: same day. 751 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, five thout sixty thousand a year in rent. Can't 752 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 1: afford it. 753 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 3: I mean, Mike, they're like, oh, well, maybe I need 754 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 3: to move or we got to do long distance. I mean, 755 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 3: ruins your life. And especially with now you've got in 756 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 3: person work mandates which are ratcheting up in tech, especially 757 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,240 Speaker 3: who are all lucky to have a job in the 758 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 3: middle of AI. So they have no negotiating or bargaining 759 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 3: power whenever it comes to a worker. So yeah, I 760 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 3: have become extremely radical on the housing issue and watching 761 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 3: things like that when people are either drowning in student 762 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 3: loan debt, credit card debt, with no you know, upward 763 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 3: mobility whenever it comes to wages and a median home 764 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 3: price of four hundred and fifty k, and if you 765 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 3: look at the median home price ratio to income compared 766 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 3: again to twenty years ago, like, you've got no business 767 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 3: telling anybody that they're lazy with the silver spoon. 768 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:00,640 Speaker 5: Well, this is a huge crisis. Is actually a good 769 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 5: transition to our next segment. Let's see how the political 770 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 5: system is responding to this existential crisis that so many 771 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 5: people are facing. And let's let's get to with the 772 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 5: former Senate majority leader is doing. We haven't heard much 773 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:20,799 Speaker 5: about Senator Mitch McConnell lately. 774 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 4: Let's throw this up here. 775 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 5: According to the Associated Press, he's continuing his recovery, but 776 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 5: details are scarce after a lengthy hospital stay. Sager, I 777 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 5: think the word recovery there is doing an awful lot 778 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 5: of work because, as you and I and probably our 779 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 5: viewers understand, the word recovery. It suggests that matter some 780 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 5: physical therapy going on. There's there's you're you're working toward 781 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 5: recovering your health or some some version of it. That 782 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 5: does not seem to remotely be the case. It's put 783 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:01,880 Speaker 5: up a two here. So what happen is that Mitch 784 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 5: McConnell suffered a heart attack at home on June fourteenth, 785 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 5: when when paramedics finally got there, they immediately began performing CPR. 786 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,400 Speaker 5: CPR was you know, they continue to perform CPR on 787 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 5: his way in. If you have a heart attack and 788 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:28,280 Speaker 5: you're at home at McConnell's age, and by the time 789 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 5: ems gets there and they find you unresponsive and begin CPR, 790 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 5: your brain by that point has been without oxygen for 791 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 5: so long that the likelihood of you kind of recovering 792 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:46,879 Speaker 5: consciousness is just vanishingly low. 793 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: He's eighty four years old. 794 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 4: Eighty four years old. 795 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 5: There's no evidence that he has regained consciousness at any 796 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 5: point since since then. 797 00:35:56,360 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 3: Here's what his spokesperson says. Senator McConnell is still worse 798 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,239 Speaker 3: closely with staff on Senate business and Kentucky matters as 799 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:06,320 Speaker 3: he continues his recovery. However, he will not be voting 800 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 3: this week. That was his spokesperson, David pop And that 801 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 3: was actually given on July first, so that was six 802 00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 3: days ago. As of what you said now, the more 803 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 3: recent one is that he is continuing his recovery. They 804 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 3: offered no explanation of his conditions. Really well, look, I 805 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 3: mean part in the old days, maybe you could take 806 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 3: that to the bank in a post Dianne Feinstein world. 807 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 3: Come on, all right, we all saw it, We watched it. 808 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 3: Who was it who leaned over and was like, just 809 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 3: vote yes. I couldn't believe that. And she looked, look 810 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 3: at the way that she looked, and she died a 811 00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:42,279 Speaker 3: week later. It was disgraceful that they did that to her, 812 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 3: that her staff sat around and dealt with, I mean 813 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 3: all of it like it was outrageous. And the circumstances 814 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 3: of this are nuts because this is the United States Senator, 815 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 3: an extremely powerful person who you know, if he's incapacitated, 816 00:36:56,239 --> 00:37:00,080 Speaker 3: then his people should say so, maybe even his wife. 817 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 1: And yet let's put this next one up here on 818 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 1: the screen. 819 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 3: She is in China meeting with senior members of the 820 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 3: CCP after his hospitalization. Three days after he received CPR, 821 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:18,880 Speaker 3: Elaine Choo is now currently in Beijing and met with 822 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 3: the Chinese Vice president days after hospitalization. Chinese media shows 823 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 3: Chow sitting across from Jiang on June seventeenth, discussing efforts 824 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 3: to strengthen China US relations. Remember, you'll recall if you've 825 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:35,720 Speaker 3: been watching the show for a long time, Elaine Choo 826 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 3: is the daughter of some Taiwanese shipping billionaire who is 827 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:43,839 Speaker 3: extremely close to the Chinese Chinese Communist Party. The entire 828 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 3: thing has always been objectively bonkers whenever it comes to 829 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:51,239 Speaker 3: his wealth or his power and her extraordinary wealth and 830 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:54,839 Speaker 3: ties to a foreign government. But I mean, who does that? 831 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 3: Like your your husband's in the hospital and you're in China. 832 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:02,359 Speaker 3: What's going on there? No nation like the point about this. 833 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,359 Speaker 3: You know, we're just talking about the housing thing. They 834 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,879 Speaker 3: just feel it's our business. You have, You have no 835 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:08,920 Speaker 3: right to question it. 836 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 1: Did you see? 837 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 3: Remember we talked about that congressman who is missing for 838 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 3: like three months and nobody said where he was, his 839 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 3: staff and jersey. 840 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:18,480 Speaker 1: He said, I had depression. 841 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:20,360 Speaker 4: You can't take three. 842 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:22,680 Speaker 3: Months of work, bro, Just tell us that, Just say 843 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 3: I'm deeply depressed. I couldn't work. I mean to be 844 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 3: honest with you, Like that's outrageous. I mean, how many 845 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 3: blue collar guys do you think are depressed and they 846 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 3: don't want to they don't get three months off. I 847 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,719 Speaker 3: couldn't take three months off. You know that I had 848 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 3: a baby. I took one month off. Right, that's a 849 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,680 Speaker 3: much more. That's that's reasonable. And you know, I get know, 850 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:43,439 Speaker 3: we own the company. I guess I could do whatever 851 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 3: I want. 852 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 4: I wouldn't do that, but it was day right. 853 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 3: I mean, he's depressed, he's too depressed to work. I mean, 854 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 3: that's okay if it's true, but you know, I don't know. 855 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 3: I mean, is that should that really be tolerable? Like 856 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 3: maybe you should resign? Should the people of your district 857 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 3: just have three months of no representation? And you know 858 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,319 Speaker 3: that's a crazy case, But in this particular case, it's like, 859 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 3: so the wife offers no update, the senator offers no update, 860 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,399 Speaker 3: the staff for apparently just thinks that we can all 861 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 3: live in limbo for twenty one days and just say, yeah, 862 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,239 Speaker 3: he's recovering, and we have no idea whether any of 863 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,920 Speaker 3: that is true. There's no proof, proof of any path 864 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,240 Speaker 3: to recovery. And so look, there's all kinds of rumors 865 00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 3: that are circulating out there. Thomas Massey, let's put his 866 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 3: tweet up here on the screen. He says, is America 867 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 3: ready for my term limit legislation titled three strokes and 868 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 3: You're out? I'm with you, Thomas. I am totally like 869 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 3: stroke you know, a modest proposal, just three strokes, you know, 870 00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 3: just not one, not two, but three. 871 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:48,759 Speaker 1: You have three strikes and you're out. It's crazy. The entitlement. 872 00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 3: He's an eighty four year old man, literally went on camera, 873 00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 3: can't speak. 874 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:54,239 Speaker 1: What are his children doing? 875 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 3: You know, you don't say anything, Your wife, your family, 876 00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 3: Nobody says like, hey, you got to hang it up. 877 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,239 Speaker 3: I remember saying this was I go, does anybody love 878 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 3: this man? If you really love somebody, how could you 879 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 3: let them do that? You know, out in public, it's 880 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 3: just again the gerontocracy. They're clinging to power. They're narcissism. 881 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:15,279 Speaker 3: How the office serves them, they are never about serving you. 882 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:17,799 Speaker 1: It's all on display in now. 883 00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 5: If McConnell is incapacitated or does die, then under Kentucky law, 884 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:25,840 Speaker 5: there would have to be a special election. 885 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:28,320 Speaker 4: They change their rules back in I think. 886 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:32,239 Speaker 5: Twenty twenty four to strip the governor right, because they 887 00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:35,760 Speaker 5: had a democratic governor. So they said, if there's a vacancy, 888 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,800 Speaker 5: there has to be a special election, no gubernatorial appointments 889 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 5: and so. And this was when McConnell's health was failing 890 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 5: then too. This was understood to be about McConnell. So 891 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 5: if he is incapacitator dead, there have to be a 892 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:53,920 Speaker 5: special election. And that's where Thomas Massey comes back in 893 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 5: because he would be able to mount a short term 894 00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,240 Speaker 5: kind of independent campaign. You know, it's you know, everybody 895 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:03,960 Speaker 5: running in the same field, and that could draw votes 896 00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 5: away from the Republican and elected Democrat. You could even 897 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 5: plausibly see the world in which Massy won. Now he'd 898 00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:12,040 Speaker 5: only be in office for a couple of months. McConnell 899 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 5: is not running for reelection. His term is up at 900 00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 5: the end of twenty twenty six to early twenty twenty seven. 901 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 5: But if McConnell is kind of on some sort of 902 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:25,440 Speaker 5: life support and being kept alive to keep Massy out 903 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 5: of office or out from running, that is exactly what 904 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:32,000 Speaker 5: Mitch McConnell would want, oh absolutely, So that is that 905 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:36,480 Speaker 5: is it is the dying wishes to make some petty 906 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 5: partisan move with his ailing body. 907 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:42,840 Speaker 3: His dying wishes are to I don't know, like fund 908 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,799 Speaker 3: Ukraine for un till the end of time, and to 909 00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:48,759 Speaker 3: block Massy from look again. You know, I don't want 910 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 3: to be smirch an eighty four year old man who 911 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,080 Speaker 3: is you know, in bad health. But that's why you 912 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:57,200 Speaker 3: should have left a long time ago, right. You made 913 00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 3: it our business man. You are the person who made 914 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:02,440 Speaker 3: all of this our business. You could have left with dignity. 915 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:04,680 Speaker 4: It ran for re elections. You ran for reelection you. 916 00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 1: Were seventy eight years old. 917 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 3: That is disgraceful, especially whenever you were already having lingering 918 00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:13,360 Speaker 3: health problems and you had multiple health incidents on camera 919 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:14,840 Speaker 3: and still stayed in office. 920 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 1: It's crazy. 921 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:18,400 Speaker 4: So don't you want to do anything else with your life? 922 00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:20,840 Speaker 3: I kept thinking about that in main with Susan Collins, 923 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:22,000 Speaker 3: because how old is she now? 924 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 1: She's like seventy something. 925 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 3: She had previously pledged. What if she had pledged only 926 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 3: two terms. I'm telling you god, this is. 927 00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 4: It's just seventy three, seventy three, this is one six 928 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:32,439 Speaker 4: more years. 929 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 1: One of the most gorgeous. 930 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 3: Places in the world in my opinion, just my opinion, 931 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 3: And I'm like and she she's a multimillionaire.
