Do we have trade magazines for podcasting? 13 00:00:48,450 --> 00:00:52,050 No, I guess we do. Yeah, the trades. The podcast. Insider. 14 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:52,530 Yes. 15 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,250 You're going all off on my mobile I best ratings on 16 00:00:56,250 --> 00:01:01,710 Saturday Night Live ever mimosa. So this guy, yeah, it's never 17 00:01:01,710 --> 00:01:03,480 heard. I feel pretty 18 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,300 disconnected to popular culture right now. 19 00:01:06,539 --> 00:01:10,319 Yeah. And well, you should. And so this guy who obviously has a 20 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:15,509 new publicist, he's an actor. He's been in a bunch of things. 21 00:01:15,509 --> 00:01:17,969 It's like it's not a household name by any means, but I guess 22 00:01:17,969 --> 00:01:19,019 he has to some people. 23 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:20,880 Moa. 24 00:01:21,330 --> 00:01:27,390 Moa Jason Momoa. Jason Momoa All right. So what is he been on 25 00:01:27,390 --> 00:01:27,870 that we've? 26 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:33,240 I guess it was on an old Star Gate? Okay. The TV series I 27 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:38,430 think and I don't know what else interesting is long haired guy, 28 00:01:38,460 --> 00:01:41,760 kind of hunky guy with a douchebag beard. You know, he 29 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,790 looks a little bit like our very own Chris Wilson, to be honest 30 00:01:44,820 --> 00:01:48,840 in Australia. Looks like this. Yeah, even a little rougher 31 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:49,110 though. 32 00:01:51,060 --> 00:01:52,620 Yeah, Wilson should be the next. 33 00:01:53,190 --> 00:01:57,810 Wilson is the next Momo on my friend. Hands down. 34 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,320 We gotta get the gotta get. So he played 35 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:07,980 the ronin decks on Stargate Atlantis called Drogo in Oh, i 36 00:02:08,010 --> 00:02:12,690 Hello. Game of Thrones. Game of that's why we don't know the 37 00:02:12,690 --> 00:02:16,740 guy. Yes, we watch some guy. He's probably one of the most 38 00:02:16,740 --> 00:02:20,460 famous actors of our time because he's on Game of Thrones, 39 00:02:21,060 --> 00:02:22,350 Joss queen. 40 00:02:24,690 --> 00:02:28,230 All right, good. next president. Fantastic. Although I will be 41 00:02:28,230 --> 00:02:31,290 coming to you from the future on today's program. Talk about you 42 00:02:31,290 --> 00:02:34,020 have something from the future? I do. But not right now. It's I 43 00:02:34,020 --> 00:02:37,170 don't want to just dive into it. Let's ease into it. Because I 44 00:02:37,170 --> 00:02:41,310 felt this weekend for me was a point a point, the tipping 45 00:02:41,910 --> 00:02:46,260 tipping point where the M five M certainly the cable news media 46 00:02:46,470 --> 00:02:49,950 actually became unwatchable for me. It was 47 00:02:49,980 --> 00:02:54,360 unwatchable demand from the past. Do you haven't seen that 48 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,010 like months ago, but okay. 49 00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:00,060 I mean, I've really held in for a long time. But when the 50 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,560 Mueller was Wah, whatever, completely unimportant, 51 00:03:04,590 --> 00:03:10,650 unrelated, stupid information, the sentencing of Cohen. It's 52 00:03:10,650 --> 00:03:15,870 like Cohen. I mean, the the movies, the scenarios, I should 53 00:03:15,870 --> 00:03:19,440 say, actually, Scott Adams talks about movies, but the scenario 54 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:24,300 that MSNBC and CNN and conversely Fox have concocted 55 00:03:24,750 --> 00:03:28,230 it's just not worth anyone's time anymore. It's like it 56 00:03:28,230 --> 00:03:32,100 remember when the the Malaysian Airlines plane went down, and it 57 00:03:32,100 --> 00:03:38,250 still hasn't been found. And I recall watching CNN every day, 58 00:03:38,250 --> 00:03:41,040 they did stuff just it was wall to wall stories about this 59 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,370 missing aircraft. We had the crazy lady from Singapore who 60 00:03:44,370 --> 00:03:47,310 was in China, we we tracked a lot of it. And I remember it was 61 00:03:47,310 --> 00:03:51,690 one year they did that story for a year until they finally had to 62 00:03:51,690 --> 00:03:54,510 give up on it because people weren't interested anymore. And 63 00:03:54,510 --> 00:03:57,960 I think we're reaching this point with just this blather. 64 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,060 And this what they've dreamt 65 00:04:00,060 --> 00:04:04,110 up. It's it's just 66 00:04:05,310 --> 00:04:06,090 give you I'm gonna go 67 00:04:06,090 --> 00:04:08,850 in that direction. Yeah, give me give me some of that. 68 00:04:08,910 --> 00:04:14,820 Well, let me go with drempt up, I want to play. Because there's 69 00:04:14,820 --> 00:04:17,850 two bits in here that I want to keep. I've noticed, by the way, 70 00:04:17,850 --> 00:04:21,660 I don't want to tell people if you get to the Microsoft 365 to 71 00:04:21,660 --> 00:04:22,980 get a terabyte of 72 00:04:23,940 --> 00:04:27,150 data. It's bacon baby data is the new big plate of 73 00:04:27,150 --> 00:04:29,940 bacon, you get a terabyte of cloud storage. But what's cool 74 00:04:29,940 --> 00:04:35,370 about this, I put all the clips on the cloud. And the software 75 00:04:35,370 --> 00:04:39,270 they're using to do search is so much faster than my desktop 76 00:04:39,270 --> 00:04:45,360 software. I can find OH clips I boom instantly. Excellent. So I 77 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,180 find that I've always felt that the cloud would be good for that 78 00:04:48,180 --> 00:04:51,690 because instead of keeping your stuff on your locals, using the 79 00:04:51,690 --> 00:04:55,530 blame search stuff that we have on the desktops, to put it in a 80 00:04:55,530 --> 00:04:58,650 big mainframe and let the mainframe crank through this day 81 00:04:58,650 --> 00:04:59,550 and index 82 00:04:59,580 --> 00:05:01,920 you really If it's being indexed by a mainframe, 83 00:05:03,149 --> 00:05:05,189 well, it's probably no, it's obviously a bunch of those 84 00:05:05,189 --> 00:05:08,009 servers. But the software they're using is much better 85 00:05:08,009 --> 00:05:08,849 than the stuff I have. 86 00:05:08,999 --> 00:05:12,839 Okay. And this is this is Microsoft's cloud. Yeah, 87 00:05:12,900 --> 00:05:16,350 Microsoft's cloud. I don't run this as a cloud to that. I 88 00:05:16,350 --> 00:05:18,570 thought they were going to be doing more of this or that. But 89 00:05:18,570 --> 00:05:22,620 let's listen to to Brooks, Brooks and shield yields in 90 00:05:22,620 --> 00:05:24,840 Brooks. And he's got two predictions in here that I'm 91 00:05:24,840 --> 00:05:28,290 going to I wrote this out to be really long, so I can look it up 92 00:05:28,290 --> 00:05:32,670 later. But he's got two predictions in here. Based on 93 00:05:32,670 --> 00:05:35,760 what you've just said about this crazy scenario they've dreamed 94 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:36,000 up, 95 00:05:36,029 --> 00:05:38,129 what do we think it adds up to? What is it 96 00:05:38,339 --> 00:05:41,279 first, these guys are not very good cooperators if you're going 97 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,039 to cooperate, cooperate. But Manafort is going to jail 98 00:05:44,039 --> 00:05:46,619 probably for the rest of his life and cones getting a healthy 99 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,309 sentence, because he sort of semi cooperated something like 100 00:05:50,309 --> 00:05:53,429 that. But I think what we're seeing is the pace ramp up on a 101 00:05:53,429 --> 00:05:56,459 lot of fronts, with they're clearly interested in the more 102 00:05:56,459 --> 00:05:58,979 contacts than we knew with Russia in 2015. With the 103 00:05:58,979 --> 00:06:02,549 campaign, the so called synergy, they apparently found, and then 104 00:06:02,549 --> 00:06:05,399 especially the business dealings, the Trump's dealings 105 00:06:05,399 --> 00:06:08,579 with in Moscow, and my instinct is that there's going to be a 106 00:06:08,579 --> 00:06:11,729 lot more investigation to business than the rest into 107 00:06:11,729 --> 00:06:15,539 Russia collusion, there's just a lot more there. And the other 108 00:06:15,539 --> 00:06:18,119 sense you get is a lot of Republicans are looking at this 109 00:06:18,119 --> 00:06:21,599 White House, and they're seeing an administration under a lot of 110 00:06:21,809 --> 00:06:24,299 judicial and legal threat, and a lot are under the political 111 00:06:24,299 --> 00:06:27,629 threat. And they see a White House Counsel's Office that is 112 00:06:27,629 --> 00:06:31,649 denuded of authority and people and then what they call the 113 00:06:31,649 --> 00:06:34,919 membrane around Trump is frailing. And the membrane is 114 00:06:34,919 --> 00:06:37,469 the group of people they put around Trump to protect him from 115 00:06:37,469 --> 00:06:40,859 himself. And over the years, the whole pixels of the world and 116 00:06:40,859 --> 00:06:42,899 maybe in the next few days, the John Kelly's of the world that 117 00:06:42,899 --> 00:06:46,709 are going and gone. And so you see a Trump on protected from 118 00:06:46,709 --> 00:06:49,349 himself. And you'll begin to see a lot of Republicans who are 119 00:06:49,349 --> 00:06:52,589 looking seriously at 2019 with mulata Friday's like this one. 120 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,309 And Trump, you know, really hurting himself and maybe not 121 00:06:56,309 --> 00:06:57,269 serving at the term. 122 00:07:00,810 --> 00:07:02,370 Term. Oh, yeah. 123 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,370 Joe's dream come true. 124 00:07:06,030 --> 00:07:09,090 And you know, what's happening? I was listening to Dutch News 125 00:07:09,090 --> 00:07:12,210 Radio over the weekend. And I've actually Saturday, Tina had 126 00:07:12,210 --> 00:07:15,690 some, some nonprofit work to do. And so I'm just listening to 127 00:07:15,690 --> 00:07:17,970 this because, you know, it's if she's around, it's you won't 128 00:07:17,970 --> 00:07:22,620 understand it. And the every journalist that came on, it's as 129 00:07:22,620 --> 00:07:25,530 if they sat at home and had the morning coffee and watched 130 00:07:25,530 --> 00:07:28,380 MSNBC. Yeah, because they can get that over there. They can 131 00:07:28,380 --> 00:07:31,500 they can you don't even need to have MSNBC to get this story. 132 00:07:32,220 --> 00:07:35,910 And then they go on the air and, and just like, Oh, my God, 133 00:07:35,910 --> 00:07:38,220 you'll never serve out his term. And of course, they'd like to 134 00:07:38,220 --> 00:07:41,580 pronounce trumpets through him. Tell you he does this. Trim the 135 00:07:41,580 --> 00:07:48,270 trim, trim, trim, trim drip, and it's the same delusion is just 136 00:07:48,300 --> 00:07:50,970 delusionary. Oh, 137 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,740 also, I think it's also delusional to think that 138 00:07:55,740 --> 00:08:03,240 Manafort is going to be sentenced to life in prison for 139 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,670 his financial crimes, yes. 140 00:08:06,330 --> 00:08:09,660 We don't have to go through it again. It's this has nothing the 141 00:08:09,660 --> 00:08:14,220 only thing as far as I can see that that that maybe maybe maybe 142 00:08:14,220 --> 00:08:19,320 is out there is somehow illegal campaign contribution due to the 143 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:25,350 pay off of the stripper and the the 144 00:08:25,650 --> 00:08:27,990 we should mention that if you're gonna bring that if somebody did 145 00:08:27,990 --> 00:08:30,030 bring this up in a tweet, and I thought it was something to 146 00:08:30,030 --> 00:08:36,180 bring up. John Edwards who ran for vice president took illegal 147 00:08:36,180 --> 00:08:40,380 campaign contributions up to the tune of a million bucks against 148 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,370 girlfriend his girlfriend his side 149 00:08:44,370 --> 00:08:48,540 piece that's right. And all you pay is a fine and then you know 150 00:08:48,570 --> 00:08:52,500 this done. He didn't get any other punishment besides the 151 00:08:52,500 --> 00:08:56,490 fine did he? I don't even though he got a fine. Yeah, every 152 00:08:56,490 --> 00:08:59,640 campaign makes mistakes like that. And Obama campaign had 153 00:08:59,670 --> 00:09:03,420 money that they took incorrectly and all kinds of stuff. So but 154 00:09:03,420 --> 00:09:06,120 that doesn't matter. It's in these people's heads. 155 00:09:07,890 --> 00:09:12,810 This is the wet delusional is the right word. I because I kind 156 00:09:12,810 --> 00:09:16,170 of soft pedal that is incredible wishful thinking. But at the 157 00:09:16,170 --> 00:09:19,680 point that it is now I would say delusional is is the semi 158 00:09:19,680 --> 00:09:23,160 Correct? Yeah. I mean, just from a legal standpoint, argue this 159 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,170 from a legal standpoint, it's just not there. 160 00:09:25,710 --> 00:09:32,400 But that's the way it is. Comey testified jobs, James Comey. 161 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:38,100 And as per his wishes, he released the entire transcript 162 00:09:38,100 --> 00:09:42,030 of his behind closed doors testimony was released, I think 163 00:09:42,060 --> 00:09:47,490 almost the same day. 250 pages of stuff, some of its redacted. 164 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,350 A lot of I can't recall. That's always my favorite 165 00:09:52,410 --> 00:09:55,080 is actually somebody count. It's 57 or so. No, no, 166 00:09:55,080 --> 00:10:01,740 I heard it was 250 times Hmm, that's What I heard? Well, it's 167 00:10:01,770 --> 00:10:04,740 it's quite a long document, one of our producers did pull out an 168 00:10:04,740 --> 00:10:06,750 interesting quote as a lot of people have been going through 169 00:10:06,750 --> 00:10:07,170 this. 170 00:10:10,710 --> 00:10:11,970 Let's see Ratcliffe 171 00:10:12,030 --> 00:10:15,090 asks Comey. I'll just I'll just do this one paragraph here. All 172 00:10:15,090 --> 00:10:17,520 right. So I guess I tried to summarize what I've heard today 173 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,890 Hillary Clinton mishandled classified information more than 174 00:10:19,890 --> 00:10:22,860 100 times. She made false statements about it. The FBI was 175 00:10:22,860 --> 00:10:25,530 aware that at least one of her aides also mishandled classified 176 00:10:25,530 --> 00:10:28,020 information and one of the folks employed on behalf of Secretary 177 00:10:28,020 --> 00:10:31,080 Clinton intentionally destroyed evidence known to be subject to 178 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,690 congressional subpoena, and preservation order and lied to 179 00:10:33,690 --> 00:10:37,290 the FBI about it. And on July 5 2016, you stood you sir stood 180 00:10:37,620 --> 00:10:40,290 before the American people and said that neither you nor any 181 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,440 reasonable prosecutor would bring any charges in this fact 182 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,480 pattern. Is that accuracy. Is that accurate? 183 00:10:46,500 --> 00:10:48,810 Mr. Comey is reply. Yep. 184 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:53,010 I believe that then I believe it now and anybody that thinks we 185 00:10:53,010 --> 00:10:56,160 were on Team Clinton trying to cut her a break is smoking 186 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:56,880 something. 187 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:01,170 Yeah, see, 188 00:11:01,170 --> 00:11:03,060 it's too bad. We don't have audio of that, because that 189 00:11:03,060 --> 00:11:05,400 would have been much better. I agree with Jim Comey. Why 190 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:06,870 couldn't it have been out in the open? 191 00:11:08,490 --> 00:11:11,070 Well, I think it's because everyone's showboating and it's 192 00:11:11,100 --> 00:11:13,050 probably embarrassing for everyone. 193 00:11:13,290 --> 00:11:18,180 Exactly. very embarrassing. So now we have 194 00:11:19,560 --> 00:11:21,660 a new pick for the Attorney General. 195 00:11:22,530 --> 00:11:24,630 William Barr. I 196 00:11:24,630 --> 00:11:26,970 guess he goes by Bill Barr. They call him Bill like Robert 197 00:11:26,970 --> 00:11:28,080 Mueller is Bob Miller. 198 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,780 I don't know Bob I heard was William. 199 00:11:30,869 --> 00:11:33,059 I like Bill Barr. Bill Barr. Tomorrow here, buddy. How you 200 00:11:33,059 --> 00:11:33,329 doing? 201 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,370 This look very, I think he's you know, turns out he worked for 202 00:11:38,370 --> 00:11:43,200 the CIA. Did he work for Papa bush? Yeah, as his Attorney 203 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:47,790 General, which was like, what, 100 years ago and now the guy is 204 00:11:47,790 --> 00:11:51,690 still up for another attorney general's job after Clinton and 205 00:11:51,690 --> 00:11:54,240 Bush Jr. and everybody in between? 206 00:11:54,840 --> 00:12:00,090 See, he was born in 1950. So he was young at the time then. 207 00:12:02,730 --> 00:12:05,850 Yeah, it was it'd be in his 40s. overwhelmed at 50. So you'd be 208 00:12:05,850 --> 00:12:06,240 in this? 209 00:12:07,560 --> 00:12:09,240 Yeah. She's 210 00:12:10,590 --> 00:12:12,780 late 60s. Yeah, it's got to be mid 60s. 211 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,750 We could probably figure it out. If we did the math. Yeah. Gosh, 212 00:12:15,750 --> 00:12:18,960 if we actually took a pen to paper Wikipedia is not helping. 213 00:12:19,260 --> 00:12:22,620 One tooth. They usually they put it in parents. Yeah. It's not 214 00:12:22,620 --> 00:12:23,160 that I'm looking 215 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,160 for it. It's like, why didn't they give me an age here? 216 00:12:26,700 --> 00:12:31,050 Yeah. And height? 68. There's no height there. 217 00:12:32,790 --> 00:12:36,720 Here is okay. So it was interesting. I think the pic was 218 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:42,480 made public. When Bush's train was doing the tour or whenever 219 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,570 part of the funeral possessions procession which I also did not 220 00:12:45,570 --> 00:12:51,240 watch. So it was kind of an interesting time timing to 221 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,900 choose that. But this guy himself is I mean, I'm not quite 222 00:12:54,900 --> 00:13:00,120 sure why the President picked him. Here's Greg Jarrett, on Fox 223 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,210 Business News. Talking about because, you know, he's, of 224 00:13:03,210 --> 00:13:05,280 course reported on this guy in the past. And here we go. 225 00:13:05,459 --> 00:13:09,299 The President has a duty to direct the Attorney General what 226 00:13:09,299 --> 00:13:13,739 to do what not to do. This whole notion of independence is a 227 00:13:13,739 --> 00:13:18,599 canard that's been peddled for 40 years. Now, as for William 228 00:13:18,599 --> 00:13:23,639 Barr, I'm sort of of two minds. Yes. unquestionable integrity of 229 00:13:23,639 --> 00:13:27,959 fine reputation, great experience. He brings gravitas 230 00:13:27,959 --> 00:13:31,589 to the job as an establishment figure at a time when I was 231 00:13:31,589 --> 00:13:32,099 Gravis 232 00:13:32,130 --> 00:13:36,060 us. You know, grava toss is interesting, because it's a term 233 00:13:36,060 --> 00:13:41,760 they tried to use. They tried to push this term on Obama. No, no 234 00:13:41,790 --> 00:13:44,550 way before that. The first time I saw they're trying to push 235 00:13:44,580 --> 00:13:47,730 push this term was when Clinton was running for the president 236 00:13:47,730 --> 00:13:52,380 for the first time, Hillary or Bill, Bill. This goes way back. 237 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,650 This is this. This was discounted from the original 238 00:13:55,650 --> 00:14:02,430 Governor Cuomo, the old man who was gonna run for president when 239 00:14:02,430 --> 00:14:06,510 George Bush was up for a second term, but he decided not to 240 00:14:06,510 --> 00:14:08,880 because he feared Yeah, you know, he's gonna get reelected. 241 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,850 So Clinton got in and that was in a cool most political career 242 00:14:11,850 --> 00:14:14,670 for good because it was made a mistake because he would have 243 00:14:14,670 --> 00:14:18,450 been a shoo in, it seems. But they started they dropped this 244 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:22,890 term into the public domain. They've left wing media, which 245 00:14:22,890 --> 00:14:27,450 is I'm going to call it gravi toss. And they kept talking, 246 00:14:27,570 --> 00:14:31,950 referring to Cuomo as being the best candidate because he has 247 00:14:31,950 --> 00:14:36,630 gravitas. Ravi taught that he kept hounding us with His word 248 00:14:36,630 --> 00:14:39,270 gravitas, then it disappeared completely and now they're 249 00:14:39,270 --> 00:14:40,530 trying to revitalize it. 250 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:47,640 gravi TAS high seriousness. Is the Merriam Webster definition 251 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:51,630 dignity, seriousness or solemnity of manna? 252 00:14:52,020 --> 00:14:55,890 Yeah, and I think there's once they rediscovered it, which is 253 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:59,310 you just pointed out? I think they're gonna, they're gonna go 254 00:14:59,310 --> 00:15:02,250 hard with it. because it's just the opposite of Trump. 255 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,400 Well, we always tried to be Gravatt Tory on this show. 256 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:10,080 And I've always tried to have gravity fly out of the room, 257 00:15:10,319 --> 00:15:13,889 toss to the job, but he is an establishment figure at a time 258 00:15:13,889 --> 00:15:18,029 when I think we need a disrupter as Attorney General, somebody 259 00:15:18,029 --> 00:15:22,499 who would vigorously go after corrupt officials at the FBI and 260 00:15:22,499 --> 00:15:26,609 Department of Justice, who were abusing their positions of power 261 00:15:26,609 --> 00:15:30,389 and attempting to undermine democracy. I'm afraid. Barr is 262 00:15:30,389 --> 00:15:31,169 not that guy. 263 00:15:31,350 --> 00:15:36,300 Oh, he's not. That was a good setup. Like, oh, he's not that 264 00:15:36,300 --> 00:15:42,300 guy. So on TBS, they had the woman of black woman who's won 265 00:15:42,300 --> 00:15:46,290 this. I think she's, she seems sweet, but she seems 266 00:15:46,290 --> 00:15:49,170 incompetent. And they it's a shame because there's so many 267 00:15:49,830 --> 00:15:51,750 experienced black people that could be 268 00:15:52,110 --> 00:15:55,200 Gwen replacement is it? Is the Gwen 269 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:59,400 replacement it's it's the L sindoor. Woman and but there's 270 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,320 so they keep giving her different assignments, which she 271 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,570 still doesn't carry out very well because she doesn't present 272 00:16:03,570 --> 00:16:08,370 well. She can't and then ca like PBS person should, which is old 273 00:16:08,370 --> 00:16:12,570 network style. But Dave, they had her do rundowns on all these 274 00:16:12,570 --> 00:16:15,750 different people that are that Trump's talking about replacing 275 00:16:15,750 --> 00:16:20,280 one person with another and she did one on William Barcia. And 276 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:24,180 listen to her point of view, because I think she did a lot of 277 00:16:24,180 --> 00:16:26,580 research she talked to a lot of people I think this is actually 278 00:16:26,700 --> 00:16:30,000 she did a pretty good job except her presentation still. Skills 279 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,450 are still lousy. William bar summary we're gonna hear her 280 00:16:33,540 --> 00:16:34,200 version 281 00:16:34,260 --> 00:16:38,670 shake up. So you meet let's talk first about pick to be attorney 282 00:16:38,670 --> 00:16:41,820 general and there's an acting Attorney General But Bob Barr 283 00:16:41,820 --> 00:16:45,810 Robert Barr, who has been our sorry, William Barr, who served 284 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,980 in the administration of President Bush George HW Bush is 285 00:16:49,980 --> 00:16:54,600 now being asked by President Trump to become Attorney 286 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,100 General. What do we know about him? 287 00:16:56,370 --> 00:16:59,310 What we know is that William Barr is looked at as a respected 288 00:16:59,310 --> 00:17:02,580 attorney and that Democrats and Republicans today signaled that 289 00:17:02,580 --> 00:17:05,280 they could get behind him and support him. As Attorney General 290 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,970 I want to walk you through who William Barr is from 1991 to 291 00:17:08,970 --> 00:17:12,090 1993. He was attorney general for the late former president 292 00:17:12,090 --> 00:17:15,570 George HW Bush. He was however involved in the controversial 293 00:17:15,570 --> 00:17:19,770 Iran Contra pardons. He formerly worked for the CIA in the 1970s 294 00:17:19,770 --> 00:17:20,820 and he was an executive at 295 00:17:21,660 --> 00:17:23,430 a dawn probably knows him really well. 296 00:17:24,750 --> 00:17:27,180 If he was maybe he probably does yellow Don 297 00:17:27,540 --> 00:17:31,950 didn't cover up bushes so it's unconscious. I'm sure they know 298 00:17:31,950 --> 00:17:32,790 each other. I ran 299 00:17:32,790 --> 00:17:36,540 contra pardons. He formerly worked for the CIA in the 1970s. 300 00:17:36,540 --> 00:17:39,450 And he was an executive at Verizon. He is now practicing 301 00:17:39,450 --> 00:17:42,930 law in Washington, DC, people that I talked to today told me 302 00:17:42,930 --> 00:17:45,630 that he's an establishment Republican. This is not someone 303 00:17:45,630 --> 00:17:48,480 who's a Trump loyalist. The President has failed at times, 304 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,300 the Cabinet members and the White House with people who are 305 00:17:51,300 --> 00:17:53,820 loyal to him personally, but this is someone that someone 306 00:17:53,820 --> 00:17:57,120 like Marco Rubio or Ted Cruz and other Republican had they become 307 00:17:57,120 --> 00:17:59,910 president might have picked for their attorney general. I'm also 308 00:17:59,910 --> 00:18:03,450 told that he is someone who has had some past comments that are 309 00:18:03,450 --> 00:18:06,480 controversial on special investigations and Special 310 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:08,850 Counsel, I want to read you something from the New York 311 00:18:08,850 --> 00:18:13,170 Times in on November 14 2017, The New York Times published an 312 00:18:13,170 --> 00:18:17,190 article where they said quote, Mr. Barr said he sees basis more 313 00:18:17,190 --> 00:18:20,880 basis for investigating the Clinton uranium deal than any 314 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,750 suppose of collusion between Mr. Trump and Russia. And Mr. Barr 315 00:18:24,750 --> 00:18:27,960 told The New York Times to the extent it is not pursuing these 316 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,530 matters, the department is abdicating its responsibility. 317 00:18:31,710 --> 00:18:34,890 So to be clear, Mr. Barr is saying that Hillary Clinton 318 00:18:34,890 --> 00:18:37,920 might need to be investigated some more. He's also said that 319 00:18:37,950 --> 00:18:40,800 it's okay for presidents to specifically ask for 320 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:44,280 investigations to happen under the DOJ. So this guy 321 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:48,630 is, in essence, a veteran of the deep state. 322 00:18:49,530 --> 00:18:50,490 Yeah, 323 00:18:50,580 --> 00:18:54,210 I guess. I think he's definition of a veteran of the deep state. 324 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:58,860 I mean, holy moly, but still, it seems odd that Iran como now I 325 00:18:58,860 --> 00:19:02,430 guess, he just 68 Okay, it makes sense. He was he was young 326 00:19:02,430 --> 00:19:02,580 though. 327 00:19:02,580 --> 00:19:04,080 Back in the day. Yeah, he 328 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:08,370 must have been a go getter. Yeah, mish yummies, Leone. Now 329 00:19:08,370 --> 00:19:14,610 sindoor. has quite the resume, including winning the award 330 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:20,490 named after or not a named after paying tribute to Gwen IFO, who 331 00:19:20,490 --> 00:19:24,630 passed away. The Syracuse University toner prize. She's 332 00:19:24,630 --> 00:19:27,420 been she's New York Times. It's been around. 333 00:19:27,630 --> 00:19:33,810 She has cred. Yeah, as a writer. Oh, you will say hello. And, of 334 00:19:33,810 --> 00:19:36,870 course, don't get 335 00:19:36,870 --> 00:19:39,990 me started on the television. I mean, that's our job, but it's 336 00:19:39,990 --> 00:19:43,950 okay. No one has ever asked us our opinion. We know what works. 337 00:19:44,130 --> 00:19:47,130 They do ask us our opinion, actually. But nobody. 338 00:19:47,970 --> 00:19:50,640 No one asked us our opinion about about the television 339 00:19:51,570 --> 00:19:52,080 station but 340 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,170 stuff that we're very knowledgeable about. Oh, okay. 341 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,140 Exactly. They asked us our opinion about hey, what do you 342 00:19:58,140 --> 00:20:07,020 think of Trump? that douchebag who used to get Trump? Well, we 343 00:20:07,020 --> 00:20:08,190 don't know. We have an opinion. 344 00:20:08,490 --> 00:20:12,570 I was watching. There's this view. I think we talked about 345 00:20:12,570 --> 00:20:15,750 this Pluto TV, which shows up on the Roku box. 346 00:20:15,810 --> 00:20:20,250 I love Pluto TV. Yeah, you get some good streaming stuff. And 347 00:20:20,250 --> 00:20:23,370 before you go on, I'm gonna give you a pet peeve of mine. Okay. 348 00:20:24,360 --> 00:20:27,810 So I got Pluto TV it's on the Roku. People should get it. It's 349 00:20:27,810 --> 00:20:31,140 got all kinds of cool stuff has got Sky News. It's got all kinds 350 00:20:31,140 --> 00:20:34,620 get that cat channel. Have you watched the cat channel? 351 00:20:34,650 --> 00:20:38,070 I saw it and I did not stop I pass 352 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,420 the cat channel on and a crowd of people. You're stuck there 353 00:20:42,420 --> 00:20:42,660 for 354 00:20:42,690 --> 00:20:43,470 hours? 355 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,400 You know, it seems that actually seems like a really good idea 356 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:51,300 considering the popularity of cats on on the internet's and 357 00:20:51,300 --> 00:20:54,570 considering that you don't deal with agents. You know, there's 358 00:20:54,570 --> 00:20:58,200 no residuals to these ads to these cats. I mean, it's a great 359 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,030 it's a moneymaker. Okay, it's 360 00:21:00,090 --> 00:21:02,340 it's hours of cat video. 361 00:21:02,430 --> 00:21:05,070 I mean, I did. I didn't watch for a moment, the channel where 362 00:21:05,070 --> 00:21:08,040 these young kids go out and they, you know, they shoot an 363 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,770 arrow with a rope across the canyon. And then they just, you 364 00:21:10,770 --> 00:21:15,630 know, swing on the rope. Have you seen this channel? Oh, makes 365 00:21:15,630 --> 00:21:18,450 makes me nauseous. But I'll watch the cat channel. That's 366 00:21:18,450 --> 00:21:19,020 good. Well, here's 367 00:21:19,410 --> 00:21:22,140 the pet peeve to do. By the way, you'll love the cat channel. 368 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:27,900 Even if you don't like cats, you love the channel. to Pluto 369 00:21:27,900 --> 00:21:30,210 channel, you put it on, they get all these cheese, you get all 370 00:21:30,210 --> 00:21:34,950 these different mini networks. And then they all did loads. You 371 00:21:34,950 --> 00:21:39,990 hit Get one boom, it comes up you hit one come. XFINITY has 372 00:21:39,990 --> 00:21:47,070 got XFINITY streaming, ah, beta, Xfinity streaming, nothing comes 373 00:21:47,070 --> 00:21:50,880 up, you click on it and you wait. If you wait long enough, 374 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:56,010 sometimes up to 10 minutes, the channel will appear. And then if 375 00:21:56,010 --> 00:22:00,450 you if you happen to like, try to play a channel, and as you're 376 00:22:00,450 --> 00:22:03,840 spinning and spinning and you're waiting for it to appear. It 377 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:07,200 doesn't have any AC I'm sick of waiting and you try to turn it 378 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:13,110 off. Boom, it blows up the Roku box and reboots it. It is a 379 00:22:13,110 --> 00:22:17,760 piece of unbelievable unrelenting crap. Hey, man, why 380 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:21,720 don't they buy that technology from the Pluto channel? 381 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,740 Hey, man, that's what net neutrality is all about, man. 382 00:22:25,770 --> 00:22:27,270 It's like the getting throttled somewhere 383 00:22:27,270 --> 00:22:27,810 brah. 384 00:22:30,150 --> 00:22:36,300 So I'm watching the Pluto app, then. So you know the RT Sky 385 00:22:36,300 --> 00:22:39,960 News. There's one or two other odd ones. But that's really what 386 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:40,680 I was going for. 387 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:42,330 I think MSNBC is on there. 388 00:22:42,360 --> 00:22:48,330 Yeah, no, CBSN CBSN is right. Yes, she said so because you 389 00:22:48,330 --> 00:22:51,390 know, I gave up I gave up on the M five n. So up off we go to 390 00:22:51,390 --> 00:22:56,910 Pluto. That's there's nothing in between apparently. I went to 391 00:22:56,910 --> 00:23:02,070 Pluto TV. But our team was doing a really good job of covering 392 00:23:02,070 --> 00:23:06,720 what was happening in Paris. Holy moly. And make no mistake. 393 00:23:07,379 --> 00:23:10,439 I got an email from somebody saying that only RT is covering 394 00:23:10,439 --> 00:23:12,059 it. I told you there 395 00:23:12,060 --> 00:23:16,740 was some rumors about the BBC having been issued a D notice. 396 00:23:16,740 --> 00:23:19,260 And not just BBC, of course, it'd be everybody, but there's 397 00:23:19,260 --> 00:23:24,960 not a lot of reporting on it. And what I saw was exactly what 398 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,620 you'd expect from a color revolution. We've now you know, 399 00:23:28,740 --> 00:23:33,300 you have to really watch the screen and see that it's not all 400 00:23:33,300 --> 00:23:36,330 people with yellow jackets. But there's also people with yellow 401 00:23:36,330 --> 00:23:38,610 jackets with a with a 402 00:23:39,360 --> 00:23:40,710 balaclava on them. 403 00:23:42,180 --> 00:23:46,020 Who are ruining stuff, you know, they're there. Again, they're 404 00:23:46,020 --> 00:23:49,080 smashing into the Apple Store stealing all the all this stuff 405 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:53,010 in the Apple Store, which is just about the stupidest thing 406 00:23:53,010 --> 00:23:56,790 you can do. Children, when you're LARPing around, and you 407 00:23:56,790 --> 00:23:59,550 want to go steal something from the Apple store because your 408 00:23:59,550 --> 00:24:02,760 other LARPing friends broke the window and we were in and you 409 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:06,120 just grab it all and take it home. You better not be hooking 410 00:24:06,120 --> 00:24:08,880 that crap up to the internet, because the apple police will 411 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:12,060 find you very, very quickly. I don't care what you can give it 412 00:24:12,060 --> 00:24:14,700 to somebody else is going to come back to you. These things 413 00:24:14,700 --> 00:24:18,900 are completely loaded. They know exactly where these boxes are. 414 00:24:18,900 --> 00:24:22,290 There's a million ways for them to find it don't steal that. And 415 00:24:22,290 --> 00:24:26,730 they saw they they ran into a golfing store, a golf sporting 416 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:30,240 goods store, got a whole bunch of golf clubs, ran outside start 417 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,480 smashing the window with the golf clubs. I don't think this 418 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:39,480 has a lot to do with the climate change tax anymore. There is a 419 00:24:39,510 --> 00:24:43,350 genuine, very unhappy feeling. I think maybe the Marrakesh 420 00:24:43,380 --> 00:24:47,460 agreement which should be signed today or tomorrow, that may have 421 00:24:47,460 --> 00:24:51,420 something to do with it. A lot of people so that sadly brings 422 00:24:51,420 --> 00:24:55,020 us right back to migration. But it looks more and more like a 423 00:24:55,020 --> 00:24:58,350 color revolution is set up that way with the yellow jackets is 424 00:24:58,350 --> 00:25:01,320 now in Belgium. They were in Brussels they were trying to, 425 00:25:01,350 --> 00:25:03,900 you know, at the European Parliament, they're in 426 00:25:03,900 --> 00:25:07,890 Amsterdam, they're in Rotterdam. It's happening everywhere. And 427 00:25:08,100 --> 00:25:12,150 as long as the M five M doesn't give it too much attention. It 428 00:25:12,150 --> 00:25:16,410 might not catch fire, I think is. That's what the thinking is. 429 00:25:16,980 --> 00:25:20,850 I think that's exactly what the thinking is. Our tea is the only 430 00:25:21,090 --> 00:25:25,230 network as as much as people like to condemn them. At least 431 00:25:25,230 --> 00:25:29,490 they're covering this and they're covering it well, yes. 432 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:36,180 Although it's kind of funny, in the French newspapers, and now 433 00:25:36,180 --> 00:25:39,930 saying, oh, Allah Patty's year, which is a Parisian newspaper to 434 00:25:39,930 --> 00:25:44,520 be specific, looks like possible foreign interference going on 435 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,880 with these Yellowjacket protests. And you know who they 436 00:25:48,270 --> 00:25:52,020 were they peg right away. Russia. 437 00:25:55,350 --> 00:25:56,700 That's where our team is covering it. 438 00:25:57,330 --> 00:26:01,050 But this was the parry jam, though. Yeah, yeah. They all 439 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,080 must be rushing, have proof. Show the proof. I don't think 440 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:04,830 they have any proof 441 00:26:04,830 --> 00:26:08,610 at all. None whatsoever. But yeah, 442 00:26:08,610 --> 00:26:12,570 this is the major cover up in the news. And even democracy 443 00:26:12,570 --> 00:26:14,640 now. Is not covering it. 444 00:26:16,050 --> 00:26:19,740 No, you mean, especially not democracy now. Especially not? 445 00:26:20,010 --> 00:26:22,260 They would definitely not want to cover because of the climate 446 00:26:22,260 --> 00:26:24,360 thing. Yeah. Well, 447 00:26:24,390 --> 00:26:25,770 this does kind of bring nobody's 448 00:26:25,770 --> 00:26:28,920 coverage. So this is the great news systems that we have. Yeah. 449 00:26:28,950 --> 00:26:32,130 And they can't cover this. And it's it's exciting riots. 450 00:26:32,130 --> 00:26:34,590 There's nothing more exciting than riots like this. 451 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,970 And what's interesting is that, you see, you know, Tina asked me 452 00:26:38,970 --> 00:26:40,620 yesterday, what do you think when is this going to happen 453 00:26:40,620 --> 00:26:43,890 here? I said, it doesn't happen here. That's not how we work. 454 00:26:43,950 --> 00:26:46,770 It. Don't we only do that kind of stuff. When our favorite 455 00:26:46,860 --> 00:26:50,100 sports team wins, then we do that kind of stuff. We don't do 456 00:26:50,100 --> 00:26:52,500 it out of anger or anything we know we take to Twitter. 457 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,370 We actually go on, mate. Yeah, 458 00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:59,820 sublimated? Yes. Yeah. We don't actually go out and do something 459 00:26:59,820 --> 00:27:00,900 about it. No, no, no, 460 00:27:00,900 --> 00:27:03,870 you just bitch about it on online. And then yeah, and then 461 00:27:03,870 --> 00:27:07,050 you go, my job is done. My 462 00:27:07,050 --> 00:27:12,480 work is done here. Okay, this brings me to a little report 463 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,510 from the future as I was, it's a little presentation I put 464 00:27:15,510 --> 00:27:23,460 together for us. And this really comes down to conversations 465 00:27:23,460 --> 00:27:27,870 we've had about Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, and I believe 466 00:27:27,870 --> 00:27:31,050 she's a force to be reckoned with. And this is not about the 467 00:27:31,050 --> 00:27:34,320 merits of what she says, although it's always fun to stop 468 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,990 and, and chuckle about how entertaining the things are that 469 00:27:36,990 --> 00:27:41,100 she says because they clearly are not not entirely based in 470 00:27:41,100 --> 00:27:45,270 reality, and some are just funny, but she has a following 471 00:27:45,270 --> 00:27:48,510 she has a movement on seeing the kids like it. These are, we're 472 00:27:48,510 --> 00:27:48,900 talking 473 00:27:48,929 --> 00:27:53,069 she looks. She looks like an actress who should be starring 474 00:27:53,069 --> 00:27:54,749 in Hamilton. Well, she's 475 00:27:54,750 --> 00:27:58,920 gonna star on the big stage. This is just the beginning. I in 476 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,550 less Nancy Pelosi cuts her off dramatically, which I don't 477 00:28:02,550 --> 00:28:06,780 think she's going to do. Because the support is garnering, I 478 00:28:06,780 --> 00:28:11,130 think she already has almost 25 Democrats who have signed up to 479 00:28:11,130 --> 00:28:20,460 her green New Deal. Rule. And I figured I might as well look 480 00:28:20,460 --> 00:28:23,400 into this green New Deal and understand what it is they're 481 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,610 talking about. She has all the millennials following her. They 482 00:28:26,610 --> 00:28:31,170 love her. And imagine this, you're born and what is it 99 483 00:28:31,170 --> 00:28:36,000 Just make it an easy millennial number. You grow up hearing one 484 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:37,590 thing consistently. 485 00:28:38,610 --> 00:28:43,590 You're going to die from climate change. Now, seriously, yeah, 486 00:28:43,620 --> 00:28:47,280 not like you and I who been around who have seen the old 487 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,250 articles, we're going to die because it was too cold. And in 488 00:28:50,250 --> 00:28:52,560 10 years, nothing, you know, we'll all be gone, the planet 489 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,320 will be obliterated. So we witnessed all this not 490 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,860 happening, which is kind of fun. We witnessed it not happening, 491 00:28:58,950 --> 00:29:03,150 we remembered. But when you grow up a kid, then you just and your 492 00:29:03,150 --> 00:29:06,780 parents are also kind of not really engaged in climate 493 00:29:06,780 --> 00:29:09,570 science or climate truth. Just like oh, yeah, climate change, 494 00:29:09,570 --> 00:29:14,340 big problem. Then all you hear is the bit the grownups talking 495 00:29:14,340 --> 00:29:17,670 about how horrible and death and destruction. We've talked about 496 00:29:17,670 --> 00:29:20,880 this, it's having an impact. And these are the children who grew 497 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,150 up with this and have been impacted and are believe it so I 498 00:29:24,150 --> 00:29:29,460 can't fault them at all. It seems. In fact, I would say if I 499 00:29:29,460 --> 00:29:33,150 was the evil genius behind climate change, global warming 500 00:29:33,150 --> 00:29:36,780 all the mega bucks associated with it, I would probably want 501 00:29:36,780 --> 00:29:39,720 this to be the outcome. Here come the freshmen here come the 502 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,750 new kids. They're in their 20s and they're all in on this 503 00:29:42,750 --> 00:29:46,650 stuff. And it's spilling over everywhere. Here is the 504 00:29:46,650 --> 00:29:48,810 intercept podcast, just a short little clip. 505 00:29:48,959 --> 00:29:51,779 Well, I think you know, it on some level remains to be seen, 506 00:29:51,779 --> 00:29:55,679 but the kind of basic tenets of it are that we could have 507 00:29:55,679 --> 00:30:00,269 shorter workweeks. We could have a functional master transit 508 00:30:00,269 --> 00:30:02,579 system for folks who live in New York, the MTA, just so 509 00:30:02,580 --> 00:30:06,660 you understand this is what the millennials believe fixing 510 00:30:06,660 --> 00:30:10,770 climate change will do. And she is specifically talking about 511 00:30:10,770 --> 00:30:15,660 the Green New Deal GND. And this is what she believes, putting 512 00:30:15,660 --> 00:30:19,170 this, this grand new deal in place will achieve? Well, I 513 00:30:19,170 --> 00:30:21,660 think you know, it on some level, it remains to be seen, 514 00:30:21,660 --> 00:30:25,560 but the kind of basic tenets of it are that we could have 515 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:30,150 shorter workweeks. We could have a functional mass transit 516 00:30:30,150 --> 00:30:32,550 system. For folks who live in New York, the MTA could actually 517 00:30:32,550 --> 00:30:37,650 work, maybe beautiful, affordable rent controlled 518 00:30:37,650 --> 00:30:43,050 public housing, you know, job where our bosses aren't screwing 519 00:30:43,050 --> 00:30:46,800 us over, sort of any number of things you can imagine Medicare 520 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:50,400 for all, can sort of fit under the screen umbrella. And most 521 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,940 importantly, the planet wouldn't be burning around us and sort of 522 00:30:53,940 --> 00:30:55,170 baking us all into 523 00:30:56,850 --> 00:31:02,010 begging us all. So the way I'd like to do this is indeed, let's 524 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:06,720 mock and laugh at everything they say. Because, well, there 525 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:10,680 may be some validity to their thinking that the green New Deal 526 00:31:10,830 --> 00:31:14,070 will solve all these problems. But it sounded like this was 527 00:31:14,070 --> 00:31:16,980 solving everything the democratic socialists of America 528 00:31:16,980 --> 00:31:18,600 want. Oh, yeah, 529 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,090 it's always wanted, they always want mass transit to get people 530 00:31:21,090 --> 00:31:23,670 out of their cars could to ruin their independence. So you can, 531 00:31:23,850 --> 00:31:27,600 you know, get off your horse, we you have to get on a bus, get on 532 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,600 a bus. And in San Francisco, of course, or in most metropolitan 533 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,300 areas, you have situations, probably not as bad as San 534 00:31:33,300 --> 00:31:35,940 Francisco, where there's beatings on the bus, people are 535 00:31:35,970 --> 00:31:39,780 pooping on the bus. You know, everyone thinks they're a loser. 536 00:31:39,780 --> 00:31:39,870 As 537 00:31:40,050 --> 00:31:43,920 long as we can all poop on the bus, then it's okay. As long as 538 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,980 it's on the bus. intersectional pooping as long as we can all 539 00:31:46,980 --> 00:31:50,010 poop on the bus. It's okay. So I'm just showing this to give 540 00:31:50,010 --> 00:31:55,080 you a little example. I started watching TYT. I think it's also 541 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:58,290 the Young Turks. It is a force to be reckoned with in this 542 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:01,830 arena. And and the people are getting on there, and they're 543 00:32:01,830 --> 00:32:05,610 talking about it, and it's starting to move. We have this 544 00:32:05,610 --> 00:32:09,960 movement called the sunrise movement. Well, Oh, yeah. 545 00:32:10,260 --> 00:32:10,980 Yes. 546 00:32:11,250 --> 00:32:17,130 The sunrise movement is it doesn't really belong to anyone 547 00:32:17,130 --> 00:32:20,610 according to their website. There's no on the ball. Yes, on 548 00:32:20,610 --> 00:32:24,960 the About Us. There's not. Now if you it says donate. And 549 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:29,130 that'll take you to the ACT blue website, which is really, that's 550 00:32:29,130 --> 00:32:32,430 not an outfit that does anything per se, but they're kind of a 551 00:32:32,430 --> 00:32:33,780 clearing house for 552 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,480 this type of operation for these sorts sorts of things. Yes. 553 00:32:36,750 --> 00:32:37,590 Yeah, Patreon. 554 00:32:37,980 --> 00:32:42,360 Another thing we got to talk about. So here is one of the 555 00:32:42,900 --> 00:32:48,810 What is her name machiney Prakash, and she's on with chunk 556 00:32:49,140 --> 00:32:52,440 on The Young Turks just to talk about the Green New Deal and the 557 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,900 sunrise movement just to give you a little background or and, 558 00:32:55,260 --> 00:32:58,800 and these are not stupid people. They've just been incredibly 559 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,650 misinformed. From there, the minute they, they took their 560 00:33:01,650 --> 00:33:02,580 first breath, 561 00:33:03,300 --> 00:33:06,360 they've been propagandized. And this is how it works. So 562 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:11,550 sunrise movement is working to build an army of young people to 563 00:33:11,550 --> 00:33:14,580 stop climate change and create millions of good jobs for our 564 00:33:14,580 --> 00:33:18,870 generation. We see ourselves as working to actually transform 565 00:33:18,900 --> 00:33:23,040 the outrage and frustration that young people have felt at 566 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:27,930 witnessing so much political stagnation and inaction on the 567 00:33:27,930 --> 00:33:32,220 issue of climate change for our entire lives. We've known about 568 00:33:32,220 --> 00:33:34,650 the issue of climate change twice, as long as I've been 569 00:33:34,650 --> 00:33:36,090 alive on this planet, 570 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:38,820 you see, you see, you understand what's happening with these 571 00:33:38,820 --> 00:33:39,120 kids, 572 00:33:39,390 --> 00:33:42,750 and have yet to do something meaningful about it. So we are 573 00:33:42,750 --> 00:33:47,910 really working at the nexus of protest, organizing, protests, 574 00:33:47,940 --> 00:33:51,510 demonstrations, things that really help us get our story out 575 00:33:51,510 --> 00:33:54,480 into the public and, and getting people and politicians paying 576 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:58,290 attention to the crisis at hand, and combining that with some 577 00:33:58,290 --> 00:34:01,710 hard nosed, political and electoral organizing. But we 578 00:34:01,710 --> 00:34:05,640 have completely altered young people across this country have 579 00:34:05,670 --> 00:34:09,120 altered what is politically possible and feasible in this 580 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:12,570 country on the issue of climate. Three weeks ago, I was seeing 581 00:34:12,570 --> 00:34:17,580 headlines that said Dems damp down hopes on climate for next 582 00:34:17,580 --> 00:34:21,660 congress cycle, and now I'm seeing headlines like climate 583 00:34:21,660 --> 00:34:27,060 change tops Democratic agenda for 2020 for 2019 2020. And 584 00:34:27,060 --> 00:34:30,840 beyond. That is unbelievable to me. And it happened because 585 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:34,890 1000s of young people started organizing, calling for the 586 00:34:35,310 --> 00:34:38,250 solutions to the climate crisis like a green New Deal. We've 587 00:34:38,250 --> 00:34:42,060 done hundreds of office visits to congressional politicians 588 00:34:42,060 --> 00:34:45,000 asking them to support Alexandria Ocasio cortezes. 589 00:34:45,210 --> 00:34:49,380 Select Committee for a green New Deal. That would create a plan 590 00:34:49,380 --> 00:34:52,590 at the at the true scale and scope of the climate crisis. So 591 00:34:52,590 --> 00:34:56,490 young people are energized. We are motivated. We understand 592 00:34:56,490 --> 00:34:59,640 what is at stake with the wildfires that have the drought 593 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:02,280 induced Wildfires that have been destroying California and the 594 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:06,720 west coast, the IPCC report that came out saying that we have 12 595 00:35:06,720 --> 00:35:10,230 years to radically transform our economy and society to protect 596 00:35:10,230 --> 00:35:14,250 human civilization as we know it. Young people are with it. 597 00:35:14,340 --> 00:35:16,170 And we are also ready to take action. 598 00:35:16,470 --> 00:35:19,620 So I believe that I believe that they are ready to take action. 599 00:35:20,730 --> 00:35:23,370 Do you want to say something? No, I mean, I'm, 600 00:35:23,580 --> 00:35:26,280 you know, the thing is, there's all these little zingers that 601 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:29,370 they keep throwing in there, like the little phrase you use, 602 00:35:29,460 --> 00:35:34,980 create millions of good job. Oh, yeah. Well, what name one. 603 00:35:35,550 --> 00:35:39,420 So this comes from the actual document, which I took the 604 00:35:39,420 --> 00:35:43,980 trouble to go get and mark up a little bit from the 605 00:35:43,980 --> 00:35:48,030 Congressional website for Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, it 606 00:35:48,030 --> 00:35:51,000 isn't she indeed is calling for a select committee for a green 607 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,100 New Deal. And this was interesting, it's not just a 608 00:35:53,100 --> 00:35:56,190 couple pages into the marked up a few things. I've never really 609 00:35:56,190 --> 00:35:58,920 looked into how committees work and how they're put together 610 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:03,420 what a select committee even means. What we do know is that 611 00:36:03,420 --> 00:36:07,020 to be on a committee, you have to pay millions of dollars into 612 00:36:07,020 --> 00:36:09,810 the party into the party coffers. And that's how you get 613 00:36:09,810 --> 00:36:12,900 on with this has been, we've we've discussed this in great 614 00:36:12,900 --> 00:36:16,110 length. Sometimes, you know, a chairmanship can be what 5 615 00:36:16,110 --> 00:36:18,300 million bucks or something you've got to bring into the 616 00:36:18,300 --> 00:36:20,790 party coffees yet to get that and that goes to the party. So 617 00:36:20,790 --> 00:36:23,520 the select committee, I didn't didn't realize it but a select 618 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:26,580 committee for a green New Deal. That means that the Speaker of 619 00:36:26,580 --> 00:36:29,910 the House actually selects the 15 members that are being 620 00:36:29,910 --> 00:36:32,610 proposed here. So there'll be Nancy Pelosi, and it will be 621 00:36:32,610 --> 00:36:37,740 nine of the majority and it will be six of the opposition. It 622 00:36:37,740 --> 00:36:41,760 will have juror it will have legislative jurisdiction, this 623 00:36:41,790 --> 00:36:48,150 select committee which Ocasio AOC is promoting. And the select 624 00:36:48,150 --> 00:36:50,520 committee will have the authority to develop a detailed 625 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:54,840 National Industrial Economic mobilization plan to be known as 626 00:36:54,870 --> 00:36:57,660 the Green new deal for the transition of the United States 627 00:36:57,660 --> 00:37:01,140 economy to become carbon neutral, and to significantly 628 00:37:01,140 --> 00:37:06,630 draw down and capture greenhouse gases from the environment. It 629 00:37:06,630 --> 00:37:09,540 will be prepared and constantly. So we're gonna have leaders from 630 00:37:09,540 --> 00:37:12,540 business, labor, state, local governments, and academia will 631 00:37:12,540 --> 00:37:15,810 be involved in this in this green New Deal, that can bring 632 00:37:15,810 --> 00:37:19,440 in research institutions, and everything they do, will have 633 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:23,610 been planned and executed. They no longer than 10 years from the 634 00:37:23,610 --> 00:37:27,900 start of this plan, which would be in 2020. And that kind of 635 00:37:27,900 --> 00:37:30,510 comes down to the 12 years, you just heard about the 10 years, 636 00:37:30,750 --> 00:37:33,540 by 2030, we have to have everything fixed, we have to be 637 00:37:33,540 --> 00:37:38,220 completely off fossil fuels, otherwise, we all die. Then 638 00:37:38,220 --> 00:37:41,520 they're going to create the so by 20, January 1 2020, they'll 639 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:45,300 have their complete plan them they'll have legislation they're 640 00:37:45,300 --> 00:37:49,410 going to draw up by March. And they will also have 641 00:37:49,410 --> 00:37:53,160 investigative jurisdiction, which is a big groan from me, 642 00:37:53,190 --> 00:37:56,040 because that just means they're going to do more studies. 643 00:37:56,730 --> 00:37:57,390 Funding. 644 00:37:58,170 --> 00:38:00,810 I'll get to that in a second. Let me go to the end we go 645 00:38:01,050 --> 00:38:05,280 scope. Here we go the scope of the plan for a green New Deal 646 00:38:05,310 --> 00:38:07,740 and the draft legislation in there has a number of points 647 00:38:07,740 --> 00:38:13,140 here. In each case, no longer than 10 years from the start of 648 00:38:13,140 --> 00:38:17,790 the execution of the plan 100% of national power generation 649 00:38:17,790 --> 00:38:20,580 will be from renewable sources 100% 650 00:38:21,540 --> 00:38:24,690 within 10 years, there will be 651 00:38:24,690 --> 00:38:28,620 built a Nash there will be built a national energy efficient, 652 00:38:28,650 --> 00:38:30,240 smart grid, 653 00:38:30,630 --> 00:38:34,020 whatever that means. It means you can shut it down remotely 654 00:38:34,020 --> 00:38:35,490 from China bingo. 655 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:38,850 We will upgrade every residential and industrial 656 00:38:38,850 --> 00:38:42,180 building for state of the art, energy efficiency, comfort and 657 00:38:42,180 --> 00:38:46,680 safety. decarbonizing the manufacturing, agricultural and 658 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:50,160 other industries. I know how you can decarbonize agricultural 659 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:55,920 industry, but okay, the funding massive investment in the 660 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:59,730 drawdown and capture of greenhouse gases, I find to be 661 00:38:59,730 --> 00:39:04,890 interesting choice of words. They have some frequently asked 662 00:39:04,890 --> 00:39:08,940 questions, and this was my favorite. So here's one of their 663 00:39:08,940 --> 00:39:12,180 facts. Why do we need a sweeping Green New Deal investment 664 00:39:12,210 --> 00:39:15,510 program? Why can't we just rely on regulations and taxes alone 665 00:39:15,510 --> 00:39:19,290 such as a carbon tax or an eventual ban on fossil fuels? 666 00:39:19,890 --> 00:39:23,010 And the answer is regulations, taxes can indeed change some 667 00:39:23,010 --> 00:39:26,430 behavior, it's certain possibility to argue that if we 668 00:39:26,430 --> 00:39:29,700 had put in place targeted regulations, now how about my 669 00:39:29,700 --> 00:39:34,830 printer cut this off? Dammit. Sorry, I printed cut off the 670 00:39:34,830 --> 00:39:35,760 right side of the page. 671 00:39:35,940 --> 00:39:37,800 Climate change there you go. 672 00:39:42,810 --> 00:39:45,900 Well, then I'll just go straight to the be here. 673 00:39:46,290 --> 00:39:48,930 Since I can't read it here. Why should the government have a big 674 00:39:48,930 --> 00:39:51,900 role in driving and making any required investments? Why not 675 00:39:51,900 --> 00:39:55,590 just incentivize the private sector and they say two things 676 00:39:55,590 --> 00:40:00,240 here two main reasons scale and time first scale the law level 677 00:40:00,240 --> 00:40:05,370 of investment required will be massive. And even if all the 678 00:40:05,370 --> 00:40:07,710 billionaires and companies came together and were willing to 679 00:40:07,710 --> 00:40:10,530 pour their resources, put the resources at their disposal into 680 00:40:10,530 --> 00:40:13,140 this investment, and the aggregate value of the 681 00:40:13,140 --> 00:40:15,420 investments they could make would not be sufficient. For 682 00:40:15,420 --> 00:40:19,890 example, the $1 trillion, over 10 years plan for investment in 683 00:40:19,890 --> 00:40:22,620 the green economy that has been floated by some policymakers, 684 00:40:22,830 --> 00:40:26,190 has been criticized by climate experts as only as wholly 685 00:40:26,190 --> 00:40:29,970 inadequate. 1 trillion is the entire market cap of Amazon, 686 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:31,050 think about that. 687 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:36,690 So they're gonna need a lot more they think, and second time, and 688 00:40:36,690 --> 00:40:39,360 this is an update. So you just heard scale, the level of 689 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:42,840 investment required will be massive time, the speed of 690 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:44,580 investment required will be 691 00:40:44,580 --> 00:40:49,140 massive. I think they just copy 692 00:40:49,140 --> 00:40:51,930 pasted. Even all the billionaires and the companies 693 00:40:51,930 --> 00:40:53,670 could make the investments required, they will not be able 694 00:40:53,670 --> 00:40:56,310 to pull together a coordinated response in the narrow window of 695 00:40:56,310 --> 00:40:59,610 time required to jumpstart major new products, projects and major 696 00:40:59,610 --> 00:41:03,960 new sectors. So it's massive investment, massive time, it's 697 00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:07,920 all just massive. And how will the government pay for these 698 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:11,730 investments? Well, many will say massive government investment, 699 00:41:11,910 --> 00:41:15,720 how in the world we pay for this? The answer is in the same 700 00:41:15,720 --> 00:41:19,350 way we paid for the 2008 bank bailout and extended 701 00:41:19,350 --> 00:41:23,310 quantitative easing programs, the same ways we paid for World 702 00:41:23,310 --> 00:41:27,060 War Two and many other wars. The Federal Reserve can extend 703 00:41:27,060 --> 00:41:30,330 credit to power these projects and investments, new public 704 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:34,290 banks can be created, as in World War Two, to extend credit. 705 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,890 And a combination of various taxation tools, including taxes 706 00:41:37,890 --> 00:41:40,980 on carbon and other emissions and progressive wealth taxes can 707 00:41:40,980 --> 00:41:46,230 be employed. So they just say, in fine American tradition, 708 00:41:46,620 --> 00:41:47,340 print up 709 00:41:47,340 --> 00:41:50,910 the money. And then and what I 710 00:41:50,910 --> 00:41:52,440 give them credit for is unbelievable. 711 00:41:52,470 --> 00:41:56,100 I give them credit for knowing how the system works, knowing 712 00:41:56,280 --> 00:42:00,090 that knowing how it works. Now this green New Deal is not new. 713 00:42:00,660 --> 00:42:05,610 This is the exact same deal popped up, oh, seven years ago 714 00:42:05,610 --> 00:42:06,420 with Obama 715 00:42:06,450 --> 00:42:10,410 and today we're going to look at the green New Deal. Well, 716 00:42:10,410 --> 00:42:13,560 President Obama has embraced the idea of a green stimulus 717 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:17,760 package, pledging some 100 and $50 billion of investments in 718 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:21,570 low carbon infrastructure in order to create jobs. Gordon 719 00:42:21,570 --> 00:42:26,010 Brown has also espoused a green New Deal, in his case is to also 720 00:42:26,010 --> 00:42:28,560 boost employment with eco friendly transport and 721 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:31,890 renewables at the heart of his strategy. So are we going to see 722 00:42:31,890 --> 00:42:35,130 a rush to green investing? After all the returns last year were 723 00:42:35,130 --> 00:42:38,550 relatively poor? And if business takes the money, will it be able 724 00:42:38,550 --> 00:42:41,340 to actually deliver the reduction in co2 emissions that 725 00:42:41,340 --> 00:42:43,050 the world is now demanding? That was 726 00:42:43,049 --> 00:42:46,709 about $150 billion try that we did that didn't seem to go 727 00:42:46,709 --> 00:42:49,349 anywhere. I didn't hear of any great successes. Did you? 728 00:42:49,620 --> 00:42:54,030 Know I? Well, I heard they got worse, marginalized Kleiner 729 00:42:54,030 --> 00:42:58,380 Perkins as an investment vehicle company. That's right, because 730 00:42:58,650 --> 00:43:00,600 they brought in Al Gore. And the next thing, you know, they're 731 00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:04,050 throwing money at stupid green projects lost their shirt, they 732 00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:09,510 lost their shirts on that. And, and this was the same era that 733 00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:13,260 this is when Nancy Pelosi was the Speaker of the House the 734 00:43:13,260 --> 00:43:17,250 last time and she's this where that jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs, 735 00:43:17,250 --> 00:43:19,680 things come from that we use they'd been using on the show 736 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:23,310 for the last eight years. Yeah. And she's and they presented 737 00:43:23,310 --> 00:43:26,940 this kind of this proposal that was going to pass and, and 738 00:43:26,940 --> 00:43:30,570 Gohmert called it you know, the pizza turd or something like 739 00:43:30,570 --> 00:43:35,550 that really go over it has some comment. And, and the thing 740 00:43:35,550 --> 00:43:38,490 never knew it was always passed. And they'd had all this 741 00:43:38,490 --> 00:43:41,070 legislation about how you had you have to build your home with 742 00:43:41,070 --> 00:43:45,600 certain way and you have to add insulation or you get fined. And 743 00:43:45,810 --> 00:43:49,650 there's all these things. And it was it was this huge package 744 00:43:49,650 --> 00:43:52,830 that the Senate just said no. And that was the end of what's 745 00:43:52,830 --> 00:43:55,020 gonna happen. But these guys and it's like the Senate was you 746 00:43:55,020 --> 00:43:58,590 know, when I get to do this, well, there's there's okay. And 747 00:43:58,590 --> 00:44:00,930 by the way, the Senate was dominated by Democrats at the 748 00:44:00,930 --> 00:44:02,070 time. Oh, yeah. 749 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:03,270 Well, 750 00:44:03,810 --> 00:44:07,620 so just before the weekend, there was a town hall. And the 751 00:44:07,620 --> 00:44:12,600 town hall was hosted mainly by Bernie Sanders, who was very 752 00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,090 much with the young kids still the millennials, they all love 753 00:44:15,090 --> 00:44:18,870 him. Bernie is all on the on that popular tip. And they 754 00:44:18,870 --> 00:44:23,160 brought on guests, many guests, including our girl AOC from the 755 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:28,410 DSA hate, but they started off with a little video. Again, just 756 00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:31,170 setting the stage so you understand how kids today feel 757 00:44:31,170 --> 00:44:34,020 about it. But listen to what she's saying. And this, this 758 00:44:34,020 --> 00:44:37,620 really confirms my point, not only as to what these kids grew 759 00:44:37,620 --> 00:44:39,630 up with, why they're thinking that way, but there's a little 760 00:44:39,690 --> 00:44:40,890 nice little gimme in here. 761 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,850 My name is Marcela. I'm 21 years old and I was born and raised in 762 00:44:44,850 --> 00:44:48,450 South Florida. Growing up dealing with hurricanes was a 763 00:44:48,450 --> 00:44:51,540 regular occurrence for me and my family. I remember being really 764 00:44:51,540 --> 00:44:54,210 little and feeling afraid because sometimes my dad would 765 00:44:54,210 --> 00:44:57,300 have to work during the storm, but it wasn't until my family 766 00:44:57,300 --> 00:44:59,850 moved to Fort Lauderdale, Florida that I really became 767 00:44:59,850 --> 00:45:02,850 cool. Mostly acquainted with the devastating impacts of sea level 768 00:45:02,850 --> 00:45:06,090 rise, we move somewhere that sometimes called the Venice of 769 00:45:06,090 --> 00:45:09,600 America, and it's well known for its beautiful waterways and 770 00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:12,750 coasts. My family was lucky enough to live just one block 771 00:45:12,750 --> 00:45:16,170 away from the beach. When we moved, I started to notice that 772 00:45:16,170 --> 00:45:19,080 every time a storm would hit, the street in front of my 773 00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:21,840 apartment was flooded, and sometimes it would flood even 774 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:24,600 when it wasn't raining, local businesses would have to put out 775 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,930 sandbags to stop the water from coming into the shores, my 776 00:45:27,930 --> 00:45:30,660 parents would have to move the cars up to higher ground for 777 00:45:30,660 --> 00:45:33,690 parking, there was this weird dystopia where regular people 778 00:45:33,690 --> 00:45:36,960 were being forced to become experts and the oceans, tidal 779 00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:39,900 patterns and sea level rise. So I'm really bad days, the 780 00:45:39,900 --> 00:45:42,360 entrance to my apartment building would be blocked off 781 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:45,420 from flooding. At this time, I didn't know that any of this had 782 00:45:45,420 --> 00:45:48,270 to do with something called global climate change or sea 783 00:45:48,270 --> 00:45:51,960 level rise. I just knew that this was an everyday part of my 784 00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:54,960 family's life, that I went to college and I learned that my 785 00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:57,780 personal experiences with flooding and with Hurricanes 786 00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:01,020 were just warning signs of more drastic changes to come from 787 00:46:01,020 --> 00:46:03,360 Florida and for the rest of the world. So 788 00:46:05,250 --> 00:46:09,330 when she went to college, that's when she learned that she was 789 00:46:09,330 --> 00:46:12,360 going to die from this ugly climate change. That's where 790 00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:13,860 they taught her from the 791 00:46:13,980 --> 00:46:17,220 cause you're living on the front on the beachfront property, and 792 00:46:17,220 --> 00:46:20,310 then it during a storm, you get a little little flooding there, 793 00:46:20,310 --> 00:46:23,130 which has probably been going on since the 1800s. Well, they 794 00:46:23,130 --> 00:46:26,220 call it the Venice, the Venice, Florida. So yeah, it's been this 795 00:46:26,220 --> 00:46:30,030 has been a problem for since before she was born. Once she 796 00:46:30,030 --> 00:46:33,780 got the college. That's when that's when she was told what 797 00:46:33,780 --> 00:46:36,900 this all was about. And that's what these kids are growing up 798 00:46:36,900 --> 00:46:37,170 with. 799 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:40,050 Yeah, you're right. I think this is a very good point you're 800 00:46:40,050 --> 00:46:43,410 making. Now we get into dressing. This is the gym that 801 00:46:43,410 --> 00:46:46,020 normally we put depressing stuff like this at the end of the 802 00:46:46,020 --> 00:46:49,860 show. So they don't donate 803 00:46:49,980 --> 00:46:55,710 i. So we do the depressing stuff up front. We do a happy go lucky 804 00:46:55,710 --> 00:46:58,230 at the end. So people donate it. We're switching it up. John, 805 00:46:58,230 --> 00:47:01,560 just going crazy with the format today. Any any anything to help. 806 00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:08,010 Here we go to the roundtable. Bernie is of course he's you 807 00:47:08,010 --> 00:47:11,190 know, the conversate conversation is about the report 808 00:47:11,190 --> 00:47:15,210 that was released that was covered up and, you know, does 809 00:47:15,240 --> 00:47:20,100 the question here really is does Alexandria Ocasio Cortez have 810 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:23,850 you know, does she does she have the solutions here? Is she 811 00:47:23,850 --> 00:47:26,550 right? Oh, and I might want to point out that on this panel is 812 00:47:26,550 --> 00:47:33,000 also Van Jones, Van Jones. Jack Welch, you'll recall, he was the 813 00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:37,170 green czar of the Obama administration. Yeah, he was the 814 00:47:37,170 --> 00:47:41,280 guy who brought in the Green Deal initially and got ousted 815 00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:45,510 because it was actually weird. I think he was associated with 816 00:47:46,650 --> 00:47:51,690 some odd people. And it was he actually was all in on 911 like 817 00:47:51,690 --> 00:47:56,670 911 Inside Job boom out of the Obama administration. Get into 818 00:47:56,670 --> 00:47:59,760 that. Let me see. But I got a link here. What exactly did they 819 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:03,600 accuse him was? It was Jones was under fire for his past 820 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:08,070 affiliation with 911 conspiracy truthers. I'm reading this from 821 00:48:08,070 --> 00:48:13,770 a 2009 article. And for calling Republicans assholes in a video 822 00:48:13,770 --> 00:48:16,440 before he was appointed to the Obama administration, 823 00:48:17,010 --> 00:48:20,970 Republicans. Republicans then also began using him to escalate 824 00:48:20,970 --> 00:48:23,160 criticism of the administration's deployment of 825 00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:26,970 czars, you recall those days across the policy landscape, 826 00:48:26,970 --> 00:48:29,640 saying they were being used to avoid Senate scrutiny of 827 00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:32,970 appointees but more problematic was the fact that Jones has 828 00:48:32,970 --> 00:48:36,750 controversial statements fits snugly into the narrative woven 829 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:41,190 by some conservative critics of Obama as a dangerous leftist a 830 00:48:41,190 --> 00:48:44,250 critique that goes back to the campaign and was based on much 831 00:48:44,250 --> 00:48:48,090 of his past work as a community organizer with associations of 832 00:48:48,090 --> 00:48:51,510 the likes of Jeremiah Wright and William air. So there was a lot 833 00:48:51,510 --> 00:48:54,360 going on when Van Jones got kicked out and he had to fall on 834 00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:57,420 his sword. I remember it. Well, we were doing the show. So he's 835 00:48:57,420 --> 00:49:00,510 on this. And he of course, is weaseling in on the action. 836 00:49:00,510 --> 00:49:03,180 That's why he's got a show on CNN again, it's all coming 837 00:49:03,180 --> 00:49:05,520 around the grand new deal. 838 00:49:05,910 --> 00:49:10,800 Is President Trump, right? That's a hard one. I want you to 839 00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:15,930 think about it before you respond. Or, in fact, ideas out 840 00:49:15,930 --> 00:49:20,160 there that would enable us to create millions of good paying 841 00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:20,640 jobs 842 00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:24,420 now this was your question, John, good millions of good 843 00:49:24,450 --> 00:49:30,120 paying jobs. Let's get to the bottom of it. Just stick with 844 00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:31,830 the program from fossil fuels. 845 00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:37,950 It's it's unsurprising that the response to any bold proposal 846 00:49:37,950 --> 00:49:39,090 that we 847 00:49:40,050 --> 00:49:43,410 let's not mock her for her voice, let's just just bathe in 848 00:49:43,410 --> 00:49:49,860 it. It's like it's like an army like a bath of razor blades, but 849 00:49:50,340 --> 00:49:53,070 I just have to say, and again, I'm just looking at the media 850 00:49:53,070 --> 00:49:56,250 personality here. Girls got it. She's got that she's got 851 00:49:56,250 --> 00:49:59,130 everything you want. You can hate her. You can love her. It's 852 00:49:59,130 --> 00:50:02,520 all in there and Voice cuts through some may call it 853 00:50:02,520 --> 00:50:04,200 piercing it cuts through 854 00:50:04,380 --> 00:50:09,210 fossil fuels. It's it's unsurprising that the response 855 00:50:09,240 --> 00:50:14,670 to any bold proposal that we have is to incite fear, to 856 00:50:14,670 --> 00:50:15,750 incite fear of law. 857 00:50:15,780 --> 00:50:19,290 By the way, I just have to say that it's crazy about her 858 00:50:19,290 --> 00:50:21,750 everyone, especially the Republicans and the president, 859 00:50:21,870 --> 00:50:26,160 they incite fear. But that's exactly what she's doing even in 860 00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:27,000 these words, 861 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:32,910 to any bold proposal that we have, is to incite fear, to 862 00:50:32,910 --> 00:50:36,720 incite fear of loss to incite fear of others to incite fear of 863 00:50:36,720 --> 00:50:41,580 our future. But the only way we are going to get out of this 864 00:50:41,580 --> 00:50:46,500 situation is by choosing to be courageous. That's the only way 865 00:50:46,500 --> 00:50:49,710 we're gonna get out of this. And first of all, it's just plain 866 00:50:49,710 --> 00:50:54,240 wrong. The idea that we're going to somehow lose economic 867 00:50:54,240 --> 00:50:58,740 activity. As a matter of fact, it's not just possible that we 868 00:50:58,740 --> 00:51:03,540 will create jobs and economic activity by by transitioning to 869 00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:06,570 renewable energy, but it's inevitable that we are going to 870 00:51:06,570 --> 00:51:09,000 create jobs, it's inevitable that we're going to create 871 00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:13,230 industry. And it's inevitable that we can use the transition 872 00:51:13,230 --> 00:51:17,910 to 100% renewable energy as the vehicle to truly deliver and 873 00:51:17,910 --> 00:51:23,880 establish economic, social and racial justice. And yes, that is 874 00:51:23,970 --> 00:51:27,150 our proposal. And that is what we are here to do. Because in 875 00:51:27,150 --> 00:51:30,750 the depths of darkness, in the depths of despair, which what we 876 00:51:30,780 --> 00:51:31,680 last saw 877 00:51:31,860 --> 00:51:34,980 this and this is really important. What are you doing 878 00:51:35,010 --> 00:51:37,290 rummaging around, you're dropping stuff are you 879 00:51:37,380 --> 00:51:39,030 budget, just just play. 880 00:51:40,290 --> 00:51:43,050 She's now gonna give us a little history lesson for a second I 881 00:51:43,050 --> 00:51:45,510 couldn't figure out what she's talking about. This is where she 882 00:51:45,510 --> 00:51:49,560 connects the green New Deal to SDRs New Deal 883 00:51:49,620 --> 00:51:54,300 of America. That is our proposal. And that is what we 884 00:51:54,300 --> 00:51:57,210 are here to do. Because in the depths of darkness, in the 885 00:51:57,210 --> 00:52:00,960 depths of despair, which what we last saw, you know, when we 886 00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:05,460 think about where we were, when the New Deal was established, we 887 00:52:05,460 --> 00:52:08,790 were a nation in depression. In Great Depression, we were a 888 00:52:08,790 --> 00:52:14,280 nation on the brink of war, we saw the rise of fascism creeping 889 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:19,020 across, in in Europe. And no one would thought that a nation so 890 00:52:19,020 --> 00:52:23,550 poor, so scarce, and so in such dire straits, as we were, in 891 00:52:23,550 --> 00:52:27,570 that time, could pursue such a bold economic agenda, but we 892 00:52:27,570 --> 00:52:31,050 chose to do it anyway. We had the courage to ask you to minute 893 00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:34,350 and that is what this moment demands of us right now. That's 894 00:52:34,350 --> 00:52:37,710 what we have to do we have to this is going to be the Great 895 00:52:37,710 --> 00:52:40,800 Society, the moonshot, the civil rights movement of our 896 00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:44,460 generation, that is the scale that is the scale of the 897 00:52:44,460 --> 00:52:46,830 ambition that this movement is going to require. 898 00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:54,510 So what she's saying here, this is the moon shot, which by the 899 00:52:54,510 --> 00:52:57,930 way, it would just be easier to make a video about how great you 900 00:52:57,930 --> 00:53:00,180 are with the green New Deal and just put it out there pretend we 901 00:53:00,180 --> 00:53:04,590 did it. Just like the moonshot. It'll be like FDR is New Deal is 902 00:53:04,590 --> 00:53:08,490 this indeed like FDR is New Deal what was FDR is New Deal Jhansi 903 00:53:08,490 --> 00:53:08,970 Dvorak. 904 00:53:11,130 --> 00:53:12,960 And if I could put it in a nutshell 905 00:53:14,580 --> 00:53:18,150 it was a reorganization of the country somewhat no also putting 906 00:53:18,150 --> 00:53:23,730 people to work in make work jobs like the WPA, what are those 907 00:53:23,730 --> 00:53:27,300 Projects Administration is get does a civilian conservation 908 00:53:27,300 --> 00:53:31,200 corps. If you look at it objectively, the New Deal didn't 909 00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:35,040 even work. It kept us in a depression longer than we should 910 00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:35,790 have been in one. 911 00:53:36,510 --> 00:53:39,510 Really have not heard that one yet. All of you. 912 00:53:39,540 --> 00:53:45,330 You'll hear it if you just look around enough. I don't know what 913 00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:50,010 this woman is crazy. We weren't a poor, starving, skinny little 914 00:53:50,010 --> 00:53:50,820 country. 915 00:53:51,180 --> 00:53:52,350 That's what she said got 916 00:53:52,350 --> 00:53:54,270 an office we're in a depression. Yeah, 917 00:53:54,300 --> 00:53:56,580 that's what she's saying. She says we are in a depression a 918 00:53:56,580 --> 00:53:57,720 third world country. 919 00:53:57,720 --> 00:54:00,480 We've thanks to the new deal we got out of that. Well, 920 00:54:00,510 --> 00:54:04,290 just remember, this is a millennial when she thinks 921 00:54:05,580 --> 00:54:08,550 depression All she knows about the depression because it's of 922 00:54:08,550 --> 00:54:12,420 course she hasn't read up on it. Is the black and white photo of 923 00:54:12,420 --> 00:54:16,530 the men standing in line for jobs wear their hats on standing 924 00:54:16,530 --> 00:54:19,230 in line for soup kitchens, that is the entire history of the 925 00:54:19,230 --> 00:54:21,720 depression in the American experience these days. Do you 926 00:54:21,720 --> 00:54:24,300 think they went into anything deeper than that? Clearly not. 927 00:54:24,300 --> 00:54:27,750 Otherwise, she wouldn't be suggesting these things. So this 928 00:54:27,750 --> 00:54:32,910 is the idea and it's not new, is to create a new industry force 929 00:54:32,940 --> 00:54:37,230 industry away from the oil economy which the United States 930 00:54:37,230 --> 00:54:42,210 has forced it into things that do that have not been proven to 931 00:54:42,210 --> 00:54:46,170 actually work financially, which is wind and solar. Now if if she 932 00:54:46,170 --> 00:54:50,640 said let's do nuclear, I'd be all in I'm like, Yeah, I think 933 00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:52,320 you can do somewhere that I don't know if you can change the 934 00:54:52,530 --> 00:54:53,430 economy, Chile 935 00:54:53,430 --> 00:54:57,840 that nuke is kept out of the circle, and they wanted to 936 00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:02,310 abolish all the use of all four fossil fuels, which is 937 00:55:02,310 --> 00:55:05,460 interesting to me, because then she won't be able to fly from 938 00:55:05,460 --> 00:55:08,610 state to state to do this propaganda. How do you get 939 00:55:08,610 --> 00:55:11,550 around with? How do you fly a plane? Oh, well, I knew how to 940 00:55:11,550 --> 00:55:12,300 replace 941 00:55:12,570 --> 00:55:15,870 Battery. Electric electric planes. Yes, that one 942 00:55:15,870 --> 00:55:18,510 guy, one guy in a super lightweight plane with a couple 943 00:55:18,510 --> 00:55:21,420 batteries has been able to get off the ground. That's for 20 944 00:55:21,420 --> 00:55:28,110 minutes. All right, we move on. So this is what I like about her 945 00:55:28,110 --> 00:55:30,720 idea and what the thinking and I'm sure it's not her alone, 946 00:55:30,720 --> 00:55:36,870 there's other people behind her there must be is all the 947 00:55:36,870 --> 00:55:41,190 problems you see, everything and the problems that kids deal with 948 00:55:41,190 --> 00:55:48,690 is racism, other racism, sexism, Nazism, hate ism, whatever ism 949 00:55:48,690 --> 00:55:53,160 you want to put in there, all of that will be solved by solving 950 00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:56,250 this problem, because she and the Democratic socialists of 951 00:55:56,250 --> 00:56:00,330 America want to redistribute everything. Just every job that 952 00:56:00,330 --> 00:56:04,200 has anything to do with energy, wiped off the map, map, bring it 953 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:07,560 back, give everybody the same salary, the same living wage, 954 00:56:07,650 --> 00:56:11,940 the same uniform, probably, and march along to work and do the 955 00:56:11,940 --> 00:56:14,610 good work to solve our climate crisis. 956 00:56:15,810 --> 00:56:20,520 How do we and I think what we all understand is that we're 957 00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:24,390 fighting for the future of the planet. And Alexandria's talking 958 00:56:24,390 --> 00:56:28,710 about is that not only can we effectively combat climate 959 00:56:28,710 --> 00:56:33,390 change, but in the process, we can do good economics and create 960 00:56:33,390 --> 00:56:37,290 millions of good paying jobs here and throughout the world. I 961 00:56:37,290 --> 00:56:39,120 will go into some detail. Yeah, 962 00:56:39,150 --> 00:56:43,740 absolutely. And it's important to also talk about the fact that 963 00:56:43,740 --> 00:56:47,730 this is not just an economic solution is that this is how we 964 00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:50,550 this is the the mechanism through which we can really 965 00:56:50,550 --> 00:56:54,630 deliver justice to communities that have been underserved. The 966 00:56:54,630 --> 00:56:59,640 water in Flint is still dirty. The water in Flint is still 967 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:02,850 dirty. We've got children van and I were talking really we've 968 00:57:02,850 --> 00:57:05,730 got children that are that are choking on the smoke in 969 00:57:05,730 --> 00:57:09,210 California, those same those same children and rather 970 00:57:09,210 --> 00:57:10,380 children a mirror 971 00:57:11,340 --> 00:57:15,540 I got that was a good one, by the way that that got to me. Oh, 972 00:57:15,540 --> 00:57:18,990 just to see these kids. choking on 973 00:57:18,990 --> 00:57:22,170 smell of those children in Puerto Rico Archer are choking 974 00:57:22,170 --> 00:57:25,770 on the fungal spores because we have not recuperated from the 975 00:57:25,770 --> 00:57:26,250 crisis. 976 00:57:26,310 --> 00:57:29,340 I'm choking on fungal spores in Austin, stop with that. 977 00:57:29,460 --> 00:57:33,480 And the mold from the floods is taking up all of these people's 978 00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:37,950 homes. We have injustices in this country, those injustices 979 00:57:37,950 --> 00:57:41,520 are concentrated in frontline communities and indigenous black 980 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:44,520 and brown communities. They are the ones that experienced the 981 00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:48,960 greatest depths of this injustice. But if we chose and 982 00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:52,440 if we had the moral, political and economic courage to say, 983 00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:56,400 we're gonna fix all the pipes in Flint, we would put a lot of 984 00:57:56,400 --> 00:58:00,240 people to work at the same time. 985 00:58:02,310 --> 00:58:05,970 There you go. So it's putting people to work to clean your 986 00:58:05,970 --> 00:58:07,710 pipes. That's my get. 987 00:58:07,710 --> 00:58:13,230 Okay. So you create a I don't know, what do you think 10,000 988 00:58:13,230 --> 00:58:17,610 plumbers in Flint to fix all the pipes? Because you want to get 989 00:58:17,610 --> 00:58:20,220 it done quick get quickly in it that I think that number might 990 00:58:20,220 --> 00:58:24,660 work. Yeah. You also have some construction guys back hoes and 991 00:58:24,660 --> 00:58:27,300 things digging up to you know everything they can to get rid 992 00:58:27,300 --> 00:58:29,700 of these old pipes. And so you just put a whole effort on that. 993 00:58:29,700 --> 00:58:32,010 And then you get that job done, then what do you do with these 994 00:58:32,010 --> 00:58:34,560 10,000 Plumbers that are in Flint 995 00:58:34,590 --> 00:58:35,670 use them for fuel. 996 00:58:38,190 --> 00:58:41,820 Obviously, the plan has a lot of holes in it. But that doesn't 997 00:58:41,820 --> 00:58:45,210 mean that doesn't mean that the people will not be convinced by 998 00:58:45,210 --> 00:58:47,760 this. There's a lot of abstractions, extraction, 999 00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:51,270 abstraction airy thinking going on. It's like, Oh, that'll get 1000 00:58:51,270 --> 00:58:54,840 solved and it's done. It's all fine. But stop. Well, yes, 1001 00:58:54,900 --> 00:58:57,270 I want to mention something because everybody there's been 1002 00:58:57,270 --> 00:59:00,030 all these things. There's a big article online Oh, don't 1003 00:59:00,030 --> 00:59:03,210 underestimate AOC don't underestimate this woman Don't 1004 00:59:03,210 --> 00:59:06,930 mock her because, you know, and you're kind of on the same boat. 1005 00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:12,060 No, I said from day one. I said people laughing about her. It 1006 00:59:12,060 --> 00:59:14,970 sounds exactly the way people laughed at Trump. That's what I 1007 00:59:14,970 --> 00:59:17,970 say. I understand what you're saying. And I but your would be 1008 00:59:17,970 --> 00:59:20,550 on I would say if there's an argument to be made you're going 1009 00:59:20,550 --> 00:59:24,390 to be making the arguments in support of her. Yeah, her 1010 00:59:24,390 --> 00:59:28,320 potential not or her potential of course, yes, of course. Now, 1011 00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:32,970 I think she's just too stupid, personally, to get very far and 1012 00:59:32,970 --> 00:59:35,430 I think you now you can just throw the Trump thing at me 1013 00:59:35,430 --> 00:59:37,200 because all he knows what they said about Trump. He's too 1014 00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:40,560 stupid. No, he actually is his data says yes. 1015 00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:44,460 And he sounds stupid. He does. He sounds stupid. He does. Just 1016 00:59:44,460 --> 00:59:46,200 like AOC sounds stupid. 1017 00:59:46,620 --> 00:59:51,690 But I think she's genuinely stupid. I don't know if he's 1018 00:59:51,690 --> 00:59:55,740 stupid or just you know, streets are no, no, no, no, no, I'm just 1019 00:59:55,740 --> 00:59:58,260 gonna say a billionaire that gives him some credit for being 1020 00:59:58,260 --> 00:59:59,850 at least not a complete idiot. 1021 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:03,030 First thing, I didn't clip it, but during this conversation, 1022 01:00:03,300 --> 01:00:07,770 they actually said, in America, it seems like you're only deemed 1023 01:00:07,770 --> 01:00:11,730 intelligent if you make a lot of money. And you just prove that 1024 01:00:11,730 --> 01:00:16,380 and I not know I didn't. They said, You just said the guy 1025 01:00:16,410 --> 01:00:18,300 makes a lot of money. You can't be stupid. 1026 01:00:18,689 --> 01:00:21,839 But no, I said I didn't say was intelligent though. They said 1027 01:00:21,839 --> 01:00:24,389 that you you're intelligent. If you make a lot of money, I'm 1028 01:00:24,389 --> 01:00:28,679 saying you can't be really stupid and make a lot of money. 1029 01:00:29,910 --> 01:00:34,080 That's a little different. Okay, I'm not going 1030 01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:37,530 to belabor the point. But she is not stupid. She's highly 1031 01:00:37,530 --> 01:00:41,490 intelligent. But this is mind control. And she's all in she 1032 01:00:41,490 --> 01:00:46,710 has no economics degree. That as far as I know. But it also 1033 01:00:46,710 --> 01:00:51,060 doesn't matter because she has an entire legion of politicians 1034 01:00:51,060 --> 01:00:53,760 lining up behind her they know they know it's not going to 1035 01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:57,420 happen. They don't give a crap. Follow her. Follow the power. 1036 01:00:57,420 --> 01:00:57,540 They're 1037 01:00:57,540 --> 01:01:01,020 following the following the power wisely and you would argue 1038 01:01:01,020 --> 01:01:01,890 there wisely, 1039 01:01:02,130 --> 01:01:05,430 wisely following the power. But stop. We have breaking news. We 1040 01:01:05,430 --> 01:01:07,260 got it. We got to say something about trauma. Can 1041 01:01:07,260 --> 01:01:11,220 We interrupt this? Make an announcement? About your shoes? 1042 01:01:11,430 --> 01:01:16,350 Yes, yes. We need at least a half hour discussion. Right? 1043 01:01:16,620 --> 01:01:18,510 Your shoes very Just kidding. 1044 01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:23,460 And the same day as the as this. But it's a it's a funny note. 1045 01:01:23,460 --> 01:01:28,200 But the but the exact same day as the Trump administration's 1046 01:01:28,230 --> 01:01:32,700 Climate report, which they tried to bury bury, which they tried 1047 01:01:32,700 --> 01:01:37,020 to air a month early the day after Thanksgiving, that same 1048 01:01:37,020 --> 01:01:42,270 day, they spent in prime time talking about my shoes. And it 1049 01:01:42,330 --> 01:01:42,870 by the way, 1050 01:01:43,140 --> 01:01:46,140 that was that the Trump administration talking about 1051 01:01:46,140 --> 01:01:48,750 your shoes with the news media? I'm not sure you may, you may 1052 01:01:48,750 --> 01:01:51,240 have to look for your enemies elsewhere. But that is 1053 01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:54,750 what I talk about when I say being unseen, is that they won't 1054 01:01:54,750 --> 01:01:59,880 even bring it up. They don't bring up Americans that make 1055 01:01:59,880 --> 01:02:03,930 less than 40,000 or $50,000 a year. They don't bring up the 1056 01:02:03,930 --> 01:02:07,230 fact that we have some of the largest we have amassed some of 1057 01:02:07,230 --> 01:02:11,700 the largest amounts of wealth in American history. But we have 1058 01:02:11,700 --> 01:02:15,690 never seen so many people struggling and living paycheck 1059 01:02:15,690 --> 01:02:17,940 to paycheck in the way that we are today. 1060 01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:22,080 Oh, I think we have two more clips named on now we bring in 1061 01:02:22,080 --> 01:02:24,510 Van Jones, he will promote himself. Well. 1062 01:02:25,710 --> 01:02:33,060 First of all, I just it just brings tears to your eyes. It's 1063 01:02:33,060 --> 01:02:38,190 just unbelievable. And what a fake bill and Bernie, myself and 1064 01:02:38,220 --> 01:02:41,010 a bunch of other people here. We tried to take this hill. Yeah, 1065 01:02:41,010 --> 01:02:46,770 we tried to take the hill in 2008 No, I was a nut job. A big 1066 01:02:46,770 --> 01:02:49,800 part of Obama's agenda was essentially the green New Deal. 1067 01:02:49,860 --> 01:02:53,430 But you know, I talked about 911 truthers I had a job in the 1068 01:02:53,430 --> 01:02:57,690 White House to try to implement it. Right Wing came after me I 1069 01:02:57,690 --> 01:02:59,310 had to resign under fire. 1070 01:03:02,790 --> 01:03:09,000 rewriting history Vann. Wow. That's why I read. That's why I 1071 01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:11,280 read to you What actually had happened, because I knew this 1072 01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:14,790 was coming the guy just, but of course, we all gloss over the 1073 01:03:14,850 --> 01:03:16,050 errors in our history 1074 01:03:16,290 --> 01:03:21,870 to try to implement it. Right, we had to resign under fire. 1075 01:03:23,460 --> 01:03:29,520 Then they came after bill, and we couldn't get it done. But um, 1076 01:03:30,510 --> 01:03:34,320 I think you're gonna get it done. And yeah, we're gonna get 1077 01:03:34,320 --> 01:03:40,740 it done. We are the world. Voices 1078 01:03:40,740 --> 01:03:44,820 words. No, we're just we're getting we're 1079 01:03:44,880 --> 01:03:48,030 we're both Yes. Remember millennial, 1080 01:03:48,420 --> 01:03:56,640 rather than talk about my green collar economy? The only thing I 1081 01:03:56,640 --> 01:04:00,120 think about your politics that's interesting. Is you your 1082 01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:04,140 generation uses term intersectionality. Which I've 1083 01:04:04,230 --> 01:04:09,330 had to look up, but it's I think we used to call the Rainbow 1084 01:04:09,330 --> 01:04:12,090 Coalition back in the 80s and 90s. But you guys have taken it 1085 01:04:12,090 --> 01:04:17,400 to a different level. Can you just talk about we had a slogan 1086 01:04:17,400 --> 01:04:21,570 10 years ago, green jobs, not jails that we saw criminal 1087 01:04:21,570 --> 01:04:24,690 justice and economic justice and environmental justice as one 1088 01:04:24,690 --> 01:04:28,590 fight those kids standing on street corners. We don't have 1089 01:04:29,070 --> 01:04:32,040 disposable resources. We don't have disposable species. We 1090 01:04:32,040 --> 01:04:34,590 don't have disposable children or neighborhoods either. It's 1091 01:04:34,590 --> 01:04:37,110 all precious. And that those kids can be putting up those 1092 01:04:37,110 --> 01:04:39,180 solar panels. Like like Bernie was saying, and 1093 01:04:39,210 --> 01:04:42,150 there's your good weekend job right there. John, those kids 1094 01:04:42,150 --> 01:04:44,550 running around in gangs, what could they be doing on the 1095 01:04:44,550 --> 01:04:48,690 weekend? They could be putting up solar panels. Solutions is 1096 01:04:48,690 --> 01:04:49,590 what we're about. 1097 01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:51,390 And that's what they want to do. 1098 01:04:51,570 --> 01:04:54,630 They want kids to put solar panels on their roads, 1099 01:04:54,660 --> 01:04:57,390 disposable resources. We don't have disposable species. We 1100 01:04:57,390 --> 01:05:00,120 don't have disposable children or neighborhoods either. So All 1101 01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:03,120 precious that those kids can be putting up those solar panels 1102 01:05:03,120 --> 01:05:05,580 like like Bernie was saying and making a positive difference. 1103 01:05:05,790 --> 01:05:09,330 Can you just speak to the intersectional power of your 1104 01:05:09,330 --> 01:05:10,050 green New Deal? 1105 01:05:10,110 --> 01:05:13,800 Okay, now this is so this is the meat of it. She's going to speak 1106 01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:17,520 to the intersectional power of her green New Deal 1107 01:05:18,420 --> 01:05:19,950 as well as second. 1108 01:05:20,550 --> 01:05:26,190 I sense of a hint of mockery in your voice. And yet you condemn 1109 01:05:26,190 --> 01:05:30,270 me for saying she's stupid. I'm not 1110 01:05:30,270 --> 01:05:33,570 saying she's stupid. Well, maybe you need to define stupid 1111 01:05:33,570 --> 01:05:35,220 because you can't fix stupid. 1112 01:05:36,330 --> 01:05:40,620 That's the point I'm making. Can't fix stupid. All right, 1113 01:05:40,620 --> 01:05:44,850 going. I'll accept the mockery in your voice. You can now play 1114 01:05:44,850 --> 01:05:47,430 it which I believe is probably going to be the punch line clip. 1115 01:05:48,450 --> 01:05:52,080 Yeah, that you made this punch line up on punch line. 1116 01:05:52,410 --> 01:05:57,030 Yeah, it's really the the core of that is leave no person 1117 01:05:57,030 --> 01:05:59,490 behind. We cannot have a solution 1118 01:05:59,490 --> 01:06:01,200 we can isn't that a military term? 1119 01:06:01,890 --> 01:06:05,850 Leave no student behind ya know the Marines the Leave No soldier 1120 01:06:05,850 --> 01:06:09,600 behind leave no student behind leave No, somebody behind no 1121 01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:12,690 child. Yeah, she's derivative does she I give her credit for 1122 01:06:12,690 --> 01:06:16,620 this, by the way, she's done been doing a very good job of 1123 01:06:16,620 --> 01:06:19,890 stealing other people's ideas, including green New Deal, as you 1124 01:06:19,890 --> 01:06:21,750 pointed out earlier in this in this stream of 1125 01:06:21,750 --> 01:06:24,480 the tea, but it's not just stealing. I mean, she took it 1126 01:06:24,870 --> 01:06:27,480 and ran with it. And everyone who was a part of it seven years 1127 01:06:27,480 --> 01:06:31,830 ago was like, whoa, I'm Ben Jones, let me power 1128 01:06:31,980 --> 01:06:33,180 of your green New Deal. 1129 01:06:33,689 --> 01:06:38,339 Yeah, it's really the the core of that is leave no person 1130 01:06:38,339 --> 01:06:41,969 behind. We cannot have a solution, we cannot move forward 1131 01:06:41,969 --> 01:06:47,039 into our future unless every single American is considered 1132 01:06:47,219 --> 01:06:50,579 part of that. And whenever we see oversights, you know, 1133 01:06:50,579 --> 01:06:54,419 oftentimes when we get to the negotiating table, in laws and 1134 01:06:54,509 --> 01:06:58,439 in policymaking, there's this idea that, Oh, we can leave the 1135 01:06:58,439 --> 01:07:01,889 poorest of the poor behind, or we don't have to worry about 1136 01:07:01,889 --> 01:07:04,769 this tiny sliver of the population, because they're just 1137 01:07:04,769 --> 01:07:10,049 a tiny sliver of the population. And what that eventually does is 1138 01:07:10,049 --> 01:07:14,819 that it creates a crack. And that crack, really, if you think 1139 01:07:14,819 --> 01:07:18,029 of there being like a crack in the dam, it's usually where 1140 01:07:18,029 --> 01:07:24,569 things always break down. And when we see the right way, with 1141 01:07:24,569 --> 01:07:28,949 integrity, that honors everybody from the most vulnerable to the 1142 01:07:28,949 --> 01:07:33,899 most powerful. When we we acknowledge and see every person 1143 01:07:33,899 --> 01:07:36,389 in this country, which is really what it's about is that we have 1144 01:07:36,389 --> 01:07:41,129 chosen not to see people in this country, we have chosen not to 1145 01:07:41,129 --> 01:07:44,309 see people in this country until the majority of us have become 1146 01:07:44,339 --> 01:07:49,469 unseen, economically. Working people are not seen in the halls 1147 01:07:49,469 --> 01:07:53,639 of Congress, working people are not seen, and policymaking until 1148 01:07:53,639 --> 01:07:56,669 we realize that the majority of Americans are working or working 1149 01:07:56,669 --> 01:07:57,929 poor. This is 1150 01:07:58,200 --> 01:08:01,710 persuasion. And I think it's good persuasion. I think she's 1151 01:08:01,710 --> 01:08:05,190 really sort of She said nothing about what she's doing nothing 1152 01:08:05,190 --> 01:08:08,700 at all. She just spoke in identity politics to the entire 1153 01:08:08,700 --> 01:08:12,030 world of identity politics groups. And I think it's going 1154 01:08:12,030 --> 01:08:14,220 to be very effective. Here's your punch line clip. 1155 01:08:14,730 --> 01:08:17,760 The good news is that we're not starting from scratch. There's 1156 01:08:17,760 --> 01:08:23,370 so many people like Van like Senator, Senator Merkley, who 1157 01:08:23,400 --> 01:08:25,710 who had established the select committee when he was in the 1158 01:08:25,710 --> 01:08:29,190 house, a previous Select Committee, there's a lot of 1159 01:08:29,190 --> 01:08:31,890 legislation that has been drafted to already start 1160 01:08:32,010 --> 01:08:35,430 addressing some of these smaller issues just just transitions in 1161 01:08:35,430 --> 01:08:40,710 coal, whether it's, you know, whether it's it's our energy 1162 01:08:40,710 --> 01:08:43,050 infrastructure, whether it's battery, when we're looking at 1163 01:08:43,050 --> 01:08:46,290 Battery grids, and so on. There's a lot of work that has 1164 01:08:46,290 --> 01:08:50,250 already been done. But it needs to be consolidated and brought 1165 01:08:50,250 --> 01:08:54,900 under the tent of a green New Deal. And when we try to solve 1166 01:08:54,900 --> 01:08:58,110 this issue, piecemeal, we are not going to get it solved in 1167 01:08:58,110 --> 01:08:58,680 time. 1168 01:08:58,710 --> 01:09:02,280 So what she's saying is, everything that deals with the 1169 01:09:02,280 --> 01:09:05,640 economy has to be in my Select Committee, you can't deal with 1170 01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:08,970 it outside of it, you got you got battery grids, whatever that 1171 01:09:08,970 --> 01:09:12,300 is, that's in my group, battery grids here. 1172 01:09:12,360 --> 01:09:16,410 That's why we are asking for this really great, ambitious 1173 01:09:16,440 --> 01:09:20,310 singular plan. And that is why, you know, I believe that the 1174 01:09:20,310 --> 01:09:23,610 progressive movement is the only movement that has answers right 1175 01:09:23,610 --> 01:09:26,520 now. We're the only ones that are drawing from the lessons of 1176 01:09:26,520 --> 01:09:29,820 history from Franklin Delano Roosevelt from some of the most 1177 01:09:29,820 --> 01:09:35,730 ambitious projects that we have pursued in, in American history. 1178 01:09:35,730 --> 01:09:38,370 And that truly, again, is the scale that it's going to take. 1179 01:09:38,370 --> 01:09:41,280 So, you know, I think that there's so much work that has 1180 01:09:41,280 --> 01:09:44,280 been done and there's some outline questions, especially 1181 01:09:44,280 --> 01:09:47,880 when it comes to investment in technology. Here we go. When we 1182 01:09:47,880 --> 01:09:52,620 as a public choose to invest in private, when we as a public 1183 01:09:52,620 --> 01:09:55,350 choose to invest in new technologies. We deserve a 1184 01:09:55,350 --> 01:09:59,310 return on that investment. And for far too long. We gave money 1185 01:09:59,310 --> 01:10:03,510 to Tesla We gave money to a ton of people, and we got no return. 1186 01:10:03,540 --> 01:10:07,410 This is our investment that the public made in creating 1187 01:10:07,410 --> 01:10:10,350 technologies. And it's about time that we get our due. 1188 01:10:10,710 --> 01:10:14,160 Because it's the public that funded and financed a lot of 1189 01:10:14,160 --> 01:10:16,770 innovative technologies. And that's another, you know. 1190 01:10:18,390 --> 01:10:22,260 So if you Elon with your no return on investment, thank you, 1191 01:10:22,560 --> 01:10:26,220 AOC for saying that, that's a fantastic example, by the way, 1192 01:10:26,220 --> 01:10:30,330 finance, by companies like Kleiner Perkins, not that they 1193 01:10:30,330 --> 01:10:32,910 pulled money out of their pocket, they went to Washington, 1194 01:10:33,060 --> 01:10:37,590 they got the money for it $500 million, just for Fisker alone, 1195 01:10:37,590 --> 01:10:43,620 forget about all the money that Elon Musk's has, has taken. And 1196 01:10:44,220 --> 01:10:45,720 then we continue to subsidize the 1197 01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:48,840 well, we remember that the only reason that we're getting raped 1198 01:10:48,840 --> 01:10:51,960 and this money is being taken from the public, which means 1199 01:10:51,960 --> 01:10:56,580 your taxpayers and 500 million being sent off to a Fisker that 1200 01:10:56,580 --> 01:10:59,760 went out of business that immerse Linda or any of these 1201 01:10:59,760 --> 01:11:02,730 other companies is because of people like her and this 1202 01:11:02,730 --> 01:11:08,400 promotion of this global warming nonsense at this level. Exactly. 1203 01:11:09,300 --> 01:11:13,200 So it's like this vicious cycle, and you create the phony 1204 01:11:13,200 --> 01:11:16,200 problem, and then you solve it with you know, then you show 1205 01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:18,870 people for money and then you give the money away. And the 1206 01:11:18,870 --> 01:11:22,830 money goes all these it goes into somebody's pocket. It's not 1207 01:11:22,830 --> 01:11:25,380 that it's not, you know, that it's actually being used for 1208 01:11:25,380 --> 01:11:29,760 anything productive is not being it's not beneficial to anyone. 1209 01:11:29,820 --> 01:11:33,090 It is to Elan no such thing as a giant scam. Yes. 1210 01:11:33,900 --> 01:11:35,070 But our job is 1211 01:11:35,070 --> 01:11:38,340 to help the millennials who are woke 1212 01:11:39,210 --> 01:11:40,440 there aren't that many that 1213 01:11:40,470 --> 01:11:44,640 we have a few. And there are a few I'll take the ones we got 1214 01:11:44,640 --> 01:11:48,450 because they're the ones that have somehow they I think a lot 1215 01:11:48,450 --> 01:11:51,960 of them do poorly in school. That's why the programming 1216 01:11:51,960 --> 01:11:52,200 doesn't 1217 01:11:52,200 --> 01:11:54,270 work. Doesn't know how to fake it. Do well, 1218 01:11:54,300 --> 01:11:57,840 it's it's right. Right. Okay, we got a note from Gabby Bentley. 1219 01:11:58,530 --> 01:12:02,220 She said millennial boots on the ground school report. And I'll 1220 01:12:02,220 --> 01:12:05,250 just give you a couple choice bits a bit of background I was 1221 01:12:05,250 --> 01:12:07,230 hitting the mouth my dad and brothers who have been listening 1222 01:12:07,230 --> 01:12:10,860 to the show for years. My dad is even a knight. He is Sir snoops 1223 01:12:10,860 --> 01:12:16,260 Magoo. And oops, I met John at the meetup in Seattle. I'm the 1224 01:12:16,260 --> 01:12:19,830 girl standing next to him in the big group photo. 24 years old. I 1225 01:12:19,830 --> 01:12:22,170 live in Tacoma, Washington. I currently go to community 1226 01:12:22,170 --> 01:12:24,840 college and have been for the last two years except for about 1227 01:12:24,840 --> 01:12:26,940 five months. Last year when I did a study abroad in Japan. 1228 01:12:26,940 --> 01:12:30,210 Here's a couple of observations. I'm just going to pick one or 1229 01:12:30,210 --> 01:12:33,930 two. There. This is an important one. There's an epidemic of 1230 01:12:33,930 --> 01:12:37,230 depression among millennials. I think that's because of social 1231 01:12:37,230 --> 01:12:40,800 media and many, quote, disastrous things they read on, 1232 01:12:41,160 --> 01:12:44,490 it's causing their make delay to become enlarged. Also, many of 1233 01:12:44,490 --> 01:12:47,790 my friends like to joke about the depression and romanticize 1234 01:12:47,790 --> 01:12:51,060 it. It's almost as if that if you're not depressed, you're not 1235 01:12:51,060 --> 01:12:51,630 cool. 1236 01:12:52,170 --> 01:12:56,340 It's very troubling. In college after the election. 1237 01:12:57,780 --> 01:13:00,900 After Trump was elected teachers and students at my school became 1238 01:13:00,930 --> 01:13:05,040 absolutely unhinged. I took English one on one in the winter 1239 01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:08,940 of 2017. And almost every class, my teacher would spend a lot of 1240 01:13:08,940 --> 01:13:12,690 class time spouting her opinions on Trump, some of which I have a 1241 01:13:12,690 --> 01:13:17,130 recording of send it in spring of 2018. My end did in spring of 1242 01:13:17,130 --> 01:13:21,240 2018, my history teacher would spend the first 10 to 15 minutes 1243 01:13:21,240 --> 01:13:24,300 of class talking about what CNN had said about Trump the 1244 01:13:24,300 --> 01:13:28,080 previous day, even said during our unit on the Cold War, quote, 1245 01:13:28,260 --> 01:13:31,740 Putin is worse than Stalin. Needless to say, I spent the 1246 01:13:31,740 --> 01:13:36,360 majority of my time in that class rolling my eyes. So there 1247 01:13:36,360 --> 01:13:43,590 are young young people who are woke up using that term. And we 1248 01:13:43,590 --> 01:13:48,870 need to help them as much as we can by exposing this farce. But 1249 01:13:48,900 --> 01:13:53,580 make no mistake AOC and the DSA are on a fast track to power in 1250 01:13:53,580 --> 01:13:58,440 Washington, DC. I don't see how Nancy Pelosi now was 25 members 1251 01:13:58,470 --> 01:14:03,240 of the sunrise coalition or whatever they're calling it 25 1252 01:14:03,270 --> 01:14:06,540 New Democrats are all in. Yeah, I don't think she can just say 1253 01:14:06,540 --> 01:14:09,750 screw it. We're not going to do it. She'll, she'll let them 1254 01:14:09,750 --> 01:14:12,150 create it, but I'm sure she'll hamper it somehow. 1255 01:14:12,900 --> 01:14:17,070 Well, she'll try to control it a little bit. She did the same 1256 01:14:17,070 --> 01:14:22,170 thing with the jobs, jobs, jobs, let's vote for jobs. She was all 1257 01:14:22,170 --> 01:14:25,650 in on that. And that was pretty much the same. Same deal. In 1258 01:14:25,650 --> 01:14:28,980 fact, it sounds almost identical to what was going on back in 1259 01:14:28,980 --> 01:14:29,940 2008. 1260 01:14:29,940 --> 01:14:35,100 Difference is look at Ocasio Cortez. Look at Nancy Pelosi. 1261 01:14:35,460 --> 01:14:40,860 What were the kids going to be attracted to? Ya know, 1262 01:14:40,860 --> 01:14:44,430 the kids are gonna obviously be ya know, but ya know, are gonna 1263 01:14:44,430 --> 01:14:48,660 obviously be attracted to the more attractive of the two. The 1264 01:14:48,660 --> 01:14:51,390 one her wishes, which is Miss bug is the 1265 01:14:51,390 --> 01:14:55,500 one who was slapping down history. It's been done before 1266 01:14:55,710 --> 01:14:59,250 FDR did the New Deal we're going to do when we were in our 1267 01:14:59,250 --> 01:15:01,650 country and we were a poor country we were at we had no 1268 01:15:01,650 --> 01:15:04,170 money we were just SLUBs down in line for 1269 01:15:04,170 --> 01:15:05,520 a job or its world. 1270 01:15:07,020 --> 01:15:10,710 And we can get battery grids. So there'll be a lot of mocking 1271 01:15:10,710 --> 01:15:13,350 Don't worry plenty of mocking for us to do but I think she's 1272 01:15:13,350 --> 01:15:15,540 on a fast track and I'm not going to discount her and it's 1273 01:15:15,540 --> 01:15:16,410 now my beat. 1274 01:15:18,270 --> 01:15:19,440 You get a habit.

It turns out, you know, what this guy 1594 01:37:03,330 --> 01:37:08,610 came from? His first gig was interning, for Amy at democracy 1595 01:37:08,610 --> 01:37:12,360 now. Yeah, 1596 01:37:12,390 --> 01:37:17,070 pretty good. That she always has him on to pretty good. Like it's 1597 01:37:17,070 --> 01:37:19,290 it's a little cult. A little 1598 01:37:19,290 --> 01:37:22,230 cult, like, Molly. Well, it's, 1599 01:37:22,950 --> 01:37:26,520 yeah, it's a little cold. So we have it looks like now Trump is 1600 01:37:26,520 --> 01:37:29,430 going to change a bunch of people out which is doesn't 1601 01:37:29,430 --> 01:37:30,420 surprise me after 1602 01:37:30,780 --> 01:37:33,990 the end of the year. It's the end of the year, it always kick 1603 01:37:33,990 --> 01:37:34,740 some people out. 1604 01:37:35,130 --> 01:37:38,520 Now, I don't have a run down on the on the number of people but 1605 01:37:38,520 --> 01:37:42,030 we do have a parent and I have to have all these little little 1606 01:37:42,060 --> 01:37:46,920 run downs by the L sindoor. Woman on the main people that 1607 01:37:46,920 --> 01:37:51,300 are leaving, and I would like to play them so we know because for 1608 01:37:51,300 --> 01:37:59,730 example, Mark Miley, the guy who was the Army Chief of Staff, the 1609 01:37:59,730 --> 01:38:03,690 top guy. Oh, yeah. The Joint Chief. No, he's not the Joint 1610 01:38:03,690 --> 01:38:05,520 Chief guy. He is the army guy. 1611 01:38:05,550 --> 01:38:08,910 Oh, this is the guy you like. Yeah, you'd like this guy? Yeah, 1612 01:38:09,240 --> 01:38:11,820 I do. Like this guy. I have a couple of I still I brought some 1613 01:38:11,820 --> 01:38:14,820 of his old clips back. Okay, because he's the one who gave 1614 01:38:14,820 --> 01:38:18,660 that slightly long as the three minute 23 second clip on the 1615 01:38:18,660 --> 01:38:23,400 world order. I don't necessarily want to play it right now. But 1616 01:38:23,880 --> 01:38:26,850 it looks like Tillerson Well, Tillerson has been gone for a 1617 01:38:26,850 --> 01:38:29,550 while but they're gonna bring in Miley and then they're gonna 1618 01:38:29,550 --> 01:38:32,280 move over Heather Nuart now. 1619 01:38:32,580 --> 01:38:34,590 Now we're coronated is now ours. Yeah. Now, 1620 01:38:34,860 --> 01:38:40,230 I want to play this clip about her bye. Bye al sindoor because 1621 01:38:40,230 --> 01:38:42,240 the mainstream media has gone after 1622 01:38:42,450 --> 01:38:45,300 they're going after her. Oh, yeah. Because she's one of them. 1623 01:38:45,300 --> 01:38:49,050 You see, she was a Fox News babe. Although she's very 1624 01:38:49,050 --> 01:38:51,720 accomplished in her own right. But she knows she's, she's just 1625 01:38:51,720 --> 01:38:54,360 she has no symptoms. She know about politics. She's just 1626 01:38:55,230 --> 01:38:59,730 not there to do nothing. This was a revealing clip because it 1627 01:38:59,730 --> 01:39:04,830 says if l sindoor did a very good job of running, you know, 1628 01:39:04,830 --> 01:39:08,340 giving a rundown on her. But she never threw in that she doesn't 1629 01:39:08,340 --> 01:39:12,870 know what she's not. So Judy throws it in at the end. Which 1630 01:39:12,870 --> 01:39:15,810 makes me think that Judy is really the left winger there. 1631 01:39:15,810 --> 01:39:20,040 And once Gwen IFO left, Judy has like become a kind of a net 1632 01:39:20,040 --> 01:39:20,340 ball. 1633 01:39:20,370 --> 01:39:23,400 Heather nauert. She has been the spokesperson and Assistant 1634 01:39:23,400 --> 01:39:25,560 Secretary of State, what do we know about her? 1635 01:39:25,620 --> 01:39:28,020 I'm gonna quickly walk you through her bio. She was 1636 01:39:28,020 --> 01:39:31,020 spokesperson for the State Department. She was she was 1637 01:39:31,020 --> 01:39:34,410 appointed by President Trump in April 2017. She was a former 1638 01:39:34,410 --> 01:39:37,770 correspondent for Fox News correspondent for ABC News. So 1639 01:39:37,770 --> 01:39:40,710 she's someone who has a lot of experience in journalism. I'm 1640 01:39:40,710 --> 01:39:44,370 told today that President Trump appointed her because she's a 1641 01:39:44,370 --> 01:39:46,470 good talker. She's someone who has defended this 1642 01:39:46,470 --> 01:39:49,350 administration's foreign policy plans. The president said she's 1643 01:39:49,350 --> 01:39:52,500 very smart, very quick. people I've talked to say that she is 1644 01:39:52,500 --> 01:39:55,380 someone who could talk who could really come up to speed on the 1645 01:39:55,380 --> 01:39:58,350 UN's dealings that she could do the outside job which is given 1646 01:39:58,350 --> 01:40:01,320 speeches, and that she could rely On her staff as much like 1647 01:40:01,320 --> 01:40:05,460 Hillary Nikki Haley did to talk about other countries and get 1648 01:40:05,460 --> 01:40:08,220 them to really, to really support the things that the 1649 01:40:08,220 --> 01:40:09,690 United States wants them to do, but 1650 01:40:09,690 --> 01:40:12,270 no significant diplomatic experience. 1651 01:40:13,050 --> 01:40:16,260 No significant diplomatic and then you throw that in. 1652 01:40:16,290 --> 01:40:21,720 How can you how can we be mean about a woman? Mean isn't mean 1653 01:40:21,750 --> 01:40:24,390 isn't as the intersectionality we want? Isn't this the 1654 01:40:24,390 --> 01:40:28,740 diversity that we speak that we seek? I mean, let's see. Let's 1655 01:40:28,740 --> 01:40:33,870 see. She went to shitty schools. Arizona State 1656 01:40:34,860 --> 01:40:37,800 let's party school. Yeah. Pretty girl is Bachelor 1657 01:40:37,800 --> 01:40:41,250 of Arts and Communications from Mount Vernon College for Women, 1658 01:40:42,000 --> 01:40:45,480 a master's degree from Columbia. And let's see what she did. She 1659 01:40:45,480 --> 01:40:48,570 did work at some pretty serious news organizations, ABC News. 1660 01:40:48,960 --> 01:40:51,600 She contributed to ABC World News Tonight. Good Morning, 1661 01:40:51,600 --> 01:40:55,650 America, Nightline. She was nominated for an Emmy Award for 1662 01:40:55,650 --> 01:41:00,360 her news prowess. Again, she said, what does she know? 1663 01:41:00,450 --> 01:41:01,380 Stupid? 1664 01:41:01,560 --> 01:41:02,880 Pushing nobody anything? 1665 01:41:03,990 --> 01:41:07,710 No policy is the wrong person. It's exactly the right person. 1666 01:41:07,860 --> 01:41:11,040 Everybody who's know all these jokes, who stand up there, the 1667 01:41:11,040 --> 01:41:15,720 United Nations. It's all it's all PR everything they do. Every 1668 01:41:15,720 --> 01:41:19,410 document the United Nations comes up with is just a we agree 1669 01:41:19,410 --> 01:41:22,590 and recognizing that there's no there's a binding things that 1670 01:41:22,590 --> 01:41:26,520 come out of there, except the vetoes once in a while on the on 1671 01:41:26,520 --> 01:41:30,090 the what is it? The war committee, whatever they 1672 01:41:30,090 --> 01:41:33,480 whatever, church Security Council, the war council, but 1673 01:41:33,480 --> 01:41:36,360 otherwise, it's dates totally, and she's going to reign 1674 01:41:36,360 --> 01:41:39,600 supreme. You know what's gonna happen, just to be a dick about 1675 01:41:39,600 --> 01:41:44,550 it. These old boys at the United Nations like finally they sent 1676 01:41:44,550 --> 01:41:49,110 us a cute one after Samantha Power and by the way, why is it 1677 01:41:49,140 --> 01:41:51,300 predominantly women that we send there? 1678 01:41:52,560 --> 01:41:55,530 Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's a good point. I mean, they've sent 1679 01:41:56,610 --> 01:41:59,220 Well, it's been all women. I just been Hillary was there for 1680 01:41:59,220 --> 01:42:03,120 a while. Let's let's lucky Haley, John Kerry, I think was 1681 01:42:03,120 --> 01:42:05,190 there let's look what was it? Oh, women. 1682 01:42:05,610 --> 01:42:08,010 Look at the list. Hayley, 1683 01:42:08,370 --> 01:42:12,570 Michelle Seisen. Briefly. Samantha Power, Rosemarie 1684 01:42:12,570 --> 01:42:17,220 DeCarlo Susan Rice. We have to go back to 2007 1685 01:42:18,570 --> 01:42:25,590 was this guy Xiao Mei? Oh, Kalasatama kala Zod. Ah, 1686 01:42:25,620 --> 01:42:28,530 there's something about a hell of an impact. Yeah, really. 1687 01:42:28,950 --> 01:42:32,520 Before that. There was just an acting guy then it was Bolton, 1688 01:42:32,520 --> 01:42:38,640 Bolton in 2005. For that, and Patterson. Then we had Danforth 1689 01:42:38,640 --> 01:42:42,690 negative, I'm going back in time. So really, you go back to 1690 01:42:43,020 --> 01:42:46,860 you have to go back to 1993 where we find Madeleine 1691 01:42:46,860 --> 01:42:47,490 Albright, 1692 01:42:48,060 --> 01:42:51,300 who wrote I guess she was the exception to the women's role 1693 01:42:51,300 --> 01:42:51,720 and now 1694 01:42:51,720 --> 01:42:56,550 Jean Kirkpatrick in 1919 81. 1695 01:42:57,660 --> 01:42:59,190 And that 1696 01:42:59,190 --> 01:43:01,110 was it the jet flies overhead 1697 01:43:01,140 --> 01:43:07,080 but the last 12345 You I think that it's time for a man this is 1698 01:43:07,080 --> 01:43:08,130 not diversity. 1699 01:43:09,180 --> 01:43:15,900 The biggest time for a trans Chinese man from the United 1700 01:43:15,900 --> 01:43:20,280 States, American Chinese. Come on. Why do you say that? Because 1701 01:43:20,280 --> 01:43:22,710 that we don't have today. I think it's all whites. 1702 01:43:23,010 --> 01:43:25,140 No, Susan Rice is not white. 1703 01:43:27,480 --> 01:43:31,230 Samantha Power's not white. She's a great man. 1704 01:43:31,230 --> 01:43:33,120 She's a she's a great she's a redhead. 1705 01:43:34,080 --> 01:43:36,660 She's a great I thought she was reptilian. Personally. 1706 01:43:36,780 --> 01:43:38,970 She's a ginger. She doesn't count. 1707 01:43:40,770 --> 01:43:42,900 All right, so anyway, the show the other guy they're putting in 1708 01:43:42,900 --> 01:43:45,780 is this Miley character, right? Like, as you say, let's do the 1709 01:43:45,780 --> 01:43:49,770 rundown is the Miley rundown on PBS at that Elsinore does 1710 01:43:49,830 --> 01:43:53,460 Mel H general marmalade to be the next chairman of the Joint 1711 01:43:53,460 --> 01:43:54,000 Chiefs. 1712 01:43:54,180 --> 01:43:56,790 So this is someone else that I'm gonna have to pull up a graphic 1713 01:43:56,790 --> 01:44:00,930 for. He is a four star general and the Army Chief of Staff. He 1714 01:44:00,930 --> 01:44:03,900 is a Special Forces officer. He was, um, he commanded troops in 1715 01:44:03,900 --> 01:44:07,710 Afghanistan and Iraq and Korea. And the people that I talked to 1716 01:44:07,710 --> 01:44:10,350 who know him very well say that he's someone who's very blunt. 1717 01:44:10,440 --> 01:44:12,870 He's someone that once he figures out that he's right, or 1718 01:44:12,870 --> 01:44:14,970 thinks that he's right, if someone's just gonna push for 1719 01:44:14,970 --> 01:44:17,490 his point of view, that of course, could mean that he gets 1720 01:44:17,490 --> 01:44:19,860 along with President Trump, who also is someone that's like 1721 01:44:19,860 --> 01:44:21,660 that, or that he could butt heads with the president 1722 01:44:21,660 --> 01:44:24,930 instantly. I'm also told that he really likes to deal with 1723 01:44:24,930 --> 01:44:27,300 troops, he likes to visit troops. I talked to someone who 1724 01:44:27,300 --> 01:44:29,730 spent time with him in Afghanistan, and he told me a 1725 01:44:29,730 --> 01:44:32,610 really funny anecdote. And that anecdote is that he went to 1726 01:44:32,610 --> 01:44:36,030 visit French troops for a French battalion, and they prepared by 1727 01:44:36,030 --> 01:44:38,610 gas, which are traditional French bread for him. And when 1728 01:44:38,610 --> 01:44:41,670 he fit into this bucket, his dentures got stuck in the bread. 1729 01:44:41,910 --> 01:44:44,280 And the troops were saying, Oh, my God, we're so embarrassed. 1730 01:44:44,340 --> 01:44:47,970 And he said, It's okay troops. I sometimes carry a spare pair of 1731 01:44:47,970 --> 01:44:50,760 teeth with me. So he's someone who's really down to earth and 1732 01:44:50,760 --> 01:44:53,580 who was beloved and in a lot of ways by troops, so he could he 1733 01:44:53,580 --> 01:44:55,890 could he could be someone who gets along with the President, 1734 01:44:55,920 --> 01:44:56,040 you 1735 01:44:56,040 --> 01:45:00,270 may need that sense of humor. So, riveting analysis Have the 1736 01:45:00,270 --> 01:45:02,040 war prowess of this man. 1737 01:45:03,449 --> 01:45:06,299 God, well, I think the connection is the false teeth. 1738 01:45:07,169 --> 01:45:13,889 Yeah. Trump. So they're all buddy, buddy. Like, how about 1739 01:45:13,889 --> 01:45:14,249 you? Did 1740 01:45:14,999 --> 01:45:17,339 they go? Like go to this? Go into 1741 01:45:17,340 --> 01:45:21,120 a room and like, Hey, bro, can we have us to do it? Oh, it's so 1742 01:45:21,120 --> 01:45:26,310 nice to talk with my dentist. No one else cuz that's a 1743 01:45:26,640 --> 01:45:29,490 pretty important one we can listen to Miley's to this we 1744 01:45:29,490 --> 01:45:33,570 played on the show by almost two years ago, Miley's report on the 1745 01:45:33,570 --> 01:45:38,220 world order and how it works in what we do and who how we fit 1746 01:45:38,220 --> 01:45:42,030 into the scheme of things as as as a country, I think it was one 1747 01:45:42,030 --> 01:45:46,200 of the best analysis is anyone's presented and it's right from 1748 01:45:46,200 --> 01:45:48,630 the horse's mouth, the guy who has to implement it. I think 1749 01:45:48,630 --> 01:45:51,720 this is extremely important. I recall us both talking about it. 1750 01:45:51,720 --> 01:45:54,360 And I'm happy to give it another whirl 1751 01:45:54,390 --> 01:45:57,870 or tomorrow talk about the army we have we have we don't have a 1752 01:45:57,870 --> 01:46:03,660 small army. And but the question on size of forces, Army, Navy, 1753 01:46:03,660 --> 01:46:06,060 Air Force, Marines, it's a relative question. It's not an 1754 01:46:06,060 --> 01:46:09,180 absolute question. It's a question of, What do you want it 1755 01:46:09,180 --> 01:46:13,500 to do? How big do you want it is relative to the tasks you want 1756 01:46:13,500 --> 01:46:16,560 it to do? The United States military is a global military. 1757 01:46:16,980 --> 01:46:22,500 And we have been for sure, since the First World War and with 1758 01:46:22,500 --> 01:46:26,070 absolute certainty since the Bretton Woods agreements of the 1759 01:46:26,070 --> 01:46:28,740 end of World War Two, which established essentially the 1760 01:46:28,740 --> 01:46:31,530 international order the rules and regimes by which the world 1761 01:46:31,530 --> 01:46:34,470 runs today. So for seven decades, the world has had a 1762 01:46:34,470 --> 01:46:37,680 certain set of rules sets, emphasizing things like free 1763 01:46:37,680 --> 01:46:41,940 trade, international commerce, things like democracy, the quote 1764 01:46:41,940 --> 01:46:44,940 unquote, liberal world order, things like human rights, and 1765 01:46:44,940 --> 01:46:47,460 there's a whole wide variety of other things out there. And then 1766 01:46:47,460 --> 01:46:50,490 you got institutions, that it rests upon the United Nations, 1767 01:46:50,490 --> 01:46:53,100 the World Bank, and World Trade Organization, all these things 1768 01:46:53,100 --> 01:46:57,360 that were developed many years ago. And that is essentially 1769 01:46:57,360 --> 01:47:00,750 what people very quickly referred to as the world order. 1770 01:47:00,990 --> 01:47:04,410 One of the significant roles of the United States military for 1771 01:47:04,410 --> 01:47:08,670 seven decades, has been to enforce that world order to 1772 01:47:08,700 --> 01:47:11,670 maintain it to maintain its stability. And that's in our 1773 01:47:11,670 --> 01:47:14,730 interest, because in the first half of the last century, there 1774 01:47:14,730 --> 01:47:18,330 was a bloodletting unlike any that had ever occurred in the 1775 01:47:18,330 --> 01:47:24,450 history of mankind. So between 1914 and 1945 100 million people 1776 01:47:24,630 --> 01:47:28,560 are slaughtered in the conduct of war. And that's a horrible, 1777 01:47:28,560 --> 01:47:31,860 horrible nightmare. My mother and father both served in that 1778 01:47:31,860 --> 01:47:35,010 war. My mother in the Navy and my father in the Marines, and he 1779 01:47:35,010 --> 01:47:39,180 at the beach at Iwo Jima were 7000 Marines were killed in 19 1780 01:47:39,180 --> 01:47:44,070 days 34,000 wounded 22,000 Japanese killed on an island 1781 01:47:44,070 --> 01:47:47,640 that was two miles by four miles. There were millions of 1782 01:47:47,640 --> 01:47:52,170 Chinese killed in belt battle and murdered. The if you are if 1783 01:47:52,170 --> 01:47:55,080 you want a real Trail of Tears, go to Eastern Europe and see 1784 01:47:55,080 --> 01:47:58,590 what happened in Belarusian, Ukraine, Latvia, Lithuania, it's 1785 01:47:58,590 --> 01:48:02,640 horrific. Nine out of every 10 Jews that lived in Poland didn't 1786 01:48:02,640 --> 01:48:06,090 live didn't want to live in 1945. One out of every three 1787 01:48:06,090 --> 01:48:10,590 males that lived in the Ukraine or Belarus were dead by 1945. 1788 01:48:10,680 --> 01:48:15,450 It's a horrific picture that occurred. And those people who 1789 01:48:15,450 --> 01:48:19,830 were in leadership positions in 1945 said never again, we can't 1790 01:48:19,830 --> 01:48:22,620 keep doing this. This is insane. They said the same thing in 1791 01:48:22,620 --> 01:48:26,280 1815, at the Napoleonic Wars, and they set up the Concert of 1792 01:48:26,280 --> 01:48:29,220 Europe. And that worked well, for 100 years, for one century, 1793 01:48:29,340 --> 01:48:32,220 they kept the long peace in Europe. More or less, there were 1794 01:48:32,220 --> 01:48:36,240 a couple of minor flare ups, the Crimean War and the Bosnian war 1795 01:48:36,240 --> 01:48:39,360 and a few other wars. But there wasn't a continental wide war 1796 01:48:39,450 --> 01:48:46,200 until 1914. So we tried again in 1945, to set up a system that 1797 01:48:46,200 --> 01:48:48,600 would try to maintain global peace and prevent war between 1798 01:48:48,600 --> 01:48:52,230 great powers and great powers, states throughout the world, 1799 01:48:52,260 --> 01:48:57,000 that system is under stress, intense stress. Today, that 1800 01:48:57,000 --> 01:48:59,880 system is under stress from revolutionaries and terrorists 1801 01:48:59,880 --> 01:49:02,250 and guerrillas. It's under stress from nation states that 1802 01:49:02,250 --> 01:49:05,040 don't like the rules of the road that were written in one revise 1803 01:49:05,040 --> 01:49:08,970 those rules of the road. That system is under very intense 1804 01:49:09,150 --> 01:49:12,450 stress. And we're at 70 years now. And that system has 1805 01:49:12,450 --> 01:49:16,620 prevented great power or similar to what occurred in the first 1806 01:49:16,620 --> 01:49:17,610 half of the last century. 1807 01:49:18,000 --> 01:49:22,320 That before you continue with your your presentation, I would 1808 01:49:22,320 --> 01:49:25,050 like to play a clip that fits seamlessly with this, which is 1809 01:49:25,050 --> 01:49:29,100 why I'm happy you brought it. This is our tea with their 1810 01:49:29,130 --> 01:49:33,000 current version of what Russia this is them pushing back on the 1811 01:49:33,000 --> 01:49:37,290 nuke treaty, and what they view as the New World Order today, 1812 01:49:37,320 --> 01:49:43,770 it is time for change. Time for the old ways to die time for a 1813 01:49:43,770 --> 01:49:49,170 new, undisputed leader, a new American world order. 1814 01:49:49,260 --> 01:49:53,460 Our mission is to reassert our sovereignty reformed the liberal 1815 01:49:53,460 --> 01:49:57,510 international order. A central question that we face is that is 1816 01:49:57,510 --> 01:49:59,970 the question of whether the system as currently configured 1817 01:50:00,000 --> 01:50:03,810 because it exists today. And as the world is this today, doesn't 1818 01:50:03,810 --> 01:50:06,480 work doesn't work for all the people of the world, 1819 01:50:06,750 --> 01:50:11,460 the old ways out of date, the United Nations is useless, 1820 01:50:11,520 --> 01:50:16,080 incompetent, the IMF is obsolete, European Union, 1821 01:50:16,470 --> 01:50:20,220 pointless all these international organizations 1822 01:50:20,220 --> 01:50:25,290 unions, treaties and agreements, they only hinder America. They 1823 01:50:25,560 --> 01:50:29,790 tie its hands and cripple its power. The logic is sound. 1824 01:50:30,240 --> 01:50:35,460 Wouldn't we all be better off if we just let America rule 1825 01:50:35,610 --> 01:50:39,570 American tends to leave now, and always 1826 01:50:39,630 --> 01:50:44,100 the intermediate range Nuclear Forces Treaty, Russia is 1827 01:50:44,100 --> 01:50:49,650 violating it says America others aren't bound by it it Hubble's 1828 01:50:49,680 --> 01:50:55,440 limits limits the United States. And Washington's policy requires 1829 01:50:55,440 --> 01:51:00,570 it seems more nukes, bigger nukes, faster nukes. 1830 01:51:00,600 --> 01:51:04,140 One country in the world is bound by the INF Treaty us. 1831 01:51:04,920 --> 01:51:09,960 China is not bound by Iran has an extensive IRBM capability 1832 01:51:09,960 --> 01:51:13,530 that but we have global responsibilities in Asia and the 1833 01:51:13,530 --> 01:51:15,750 Middle East. We have to be responsive there to 1834 01:51:15,990 --> 01:51:21,210 international democracy has failed alliances have failed. 1835 01:51:21,420 --> 01:51:26,670 nations cannot tell right from wrong. Everyone wants us say but 1836 01:51:27,030 --> 01:51:32,760 why let them they no longer know what's good for them. America is 1837 01:51:32,760 --> 01:51:33,390 good for them. 1838 01:51:33,420 --> 01:51:37,530 This is what President Trump is doing. He is returning the 1839 01:51:37,530 --> 01:51:42,510 United States to its traditional central leadership role in the 1840 01:51:42,510 --> 01:51:42,930 world. 1841 01:51:43,440 --> 01:51:49,410 And so it seems we enter a new age, an age where might make 1842 01:51:49,410 --> 01:51:52,590 sense, right? without all the fluff and lip service to 1843 01:51:52,830 --> 01:51:58,050 partnerships and equality. The old world order is dead. Welcome 1844 01:51:58,440 --> 01:52:01,140 to a new American age. 1845 01:52:02,910 --> 01:52:04,320 I like those two back to back. 1846 01:52:04,950 --> 01:52:08,490 Well, what it shows is that there's a misunderstanding. 1847 01:52:09,030 --> 01:52:14,730 Because as the as Milley would say it was all part of the post 1848 01:52:14,730 --> 01:52:18,420 world war two Bretton Woods and other agreements that we were 1849 01:52:18,690 --> 01:52:24,480 taking this role on. And all we're doing is just reiterating 1850 01:52:24,480 --> 01:52:27,660 that because it was actually I think, somewhat weakened by 1851 01:52:27,660 --> 01:52:28,260 Obama 1852 01:52:28,290 --> 01:52:32,220 somewhat certainly weakened, we're putting the jackboot to 1853 01:52:32,220 --> 01:52:33,390 the head is what we're doing. 1854 01:52:33,509 --> 01:52:37,619 And so now we have to, we have to go strengthen it again. 1855 01:52:38,099 --> 01:52:42,749 Because again, it's like the idea is to keep from having 100 1856 01:52:42,749 --> 01:52:46,499 million people killed. Yeah, you know, within a just a decade or 1857 01:52:46,499 --> 01:52:48,689 two, which was what happened. What's happened that happened 1858 01:52:48,689 --> 01:52:52,799 before is is the nature of Europe. In general, they want to 1859 01:52:52,799 --> 01:52:53,699 fight each other. 1860 01:52:55,890 --> 01:52:59,910 And I've always thought that the the EU 1861 01:53:00,330 --> 01:53:04,080 experiment was just going to enable that again. But anyway, 1862 01:53:04,080 --> 01:53:08,160 he has a little bit of a finish on this part, too, doesn't it 1863 01:53:08,160 --> 01:53:11,040 say as much, but it's, it's not a bad rap. 1864 01:53:12,480 --> 01:53:14,790 Similar to what occurred in the first half of the last century? 1865 01:53:15,090 --> 01:53:18,450 So the question is, how big an army Do you want? How big of 1866 01:53:18,450 --> 01:53:22,050 Navy Do you want? Well, how much do you want that system? How 1867 01:53:22,050 --> 01:53:25,860 much do you value that system? Is that system worth preserving 1868 01:53:25,890 --> 01:53:30,210 or not? There in you get to the size and scope of your armies, 1869 01:53:30,210 --> 01:53:33,960 navies, Air Forces, and Marines. And rightly or wrongly, fairly 1870 01:53:33,960 --> 01:53:40,200 or unfairly, the role of the arbitrator of that system has 1871 01:53:40,200 --> 01:53:43,350 defaulted to the United States for seven decades. There are 1872 01:53:43,350 --> 01:53:46,620 other countries 60 or 70, or more so that have allied 1873 01:53:46,620 --> 01:53:49,890 themselves with their militaries to us. And they make significant 1874 01:53:49,890 --> 01:53:52,290 contributions. But it is the United States. It's been the 1875 01:53:52,290 --> 01:53:57,390 leader with that system. So the status of the army as part of 1876 01:53:57,840 --> 01:54:01,620 the military force that works to help maintain the stability of 1877 01:54:01,620 --> 01:54:04,170 the world. We're a global millet, we're global military, 1878 01:54:04,170 --> 01:54:06,840 and we're global army. And we've got right now today, about 1879 01:54:06,840 --> 01:54:11,670 180,000 soldiers in the United States Army active duty reserve 1880 01:54:11,670 --> 01:54:14,160 and National Guard deployed in about 140 countries around the 1881 01:54:14,160 --> 01:54:14,430 world. 1882 01:54:14,669 --> 01:54:17,909 Yes, we are number one. 1883 01:54:20,010 --> 01:54:23,310 So it remains to be seen how well this guy will get along 1884 01:54:23,310 --> 01:54:26,850 with Bolton, who seems to be just some sort of a 1885 01:54:26,850 --> 01:54:30,990 troublemaker. And even Trump who's always bitched about all 1886 01:54:30,990 --> 01:54:33,060 these soldiers we have stationed all over the place, although I 1887 01:54:33,060 --> 01:54:37,350 think he's softened his position on that. Yes. It'll be this is 1888 01:54:37,350 --> 01:54:39,540 going to be an interesting situation with this guy taking 1889 01:54:39,540 --> 01:54:41,700 being the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. 1890 01:54:41,970 --> 01:54:44,160 I don't know what kind of decisions we'll make. We'll see. 1891 01:54:44,310 --> 01:54:46,800 I have no idea. You know, something listening to all this 1892 01:54:46,800 --> 01:54:50,010 Something just hit me about the true fallacy of the green New 1893 01:54:50,010 --> 01:54:53,760 Deal is because it's kind of that's kind of it just hit me. 1894 01:54:54,660 --> 01:54:59,850 Here's the so they are saying we're going to make the world 1895 01:54:59,850 --> 01:55:03,390 better. certainly the United States completely, we're gonna 1896 01:55:03,390 --> 01:55:07,230 take you off oil, so no more oil. And we're going to pay for 1897 01:55:07,230 --> 01:55:09,660 that by printing money through the Federal Reserve. That's what 1898 01:55:09,660 --> 01:55:12,630 they said, what's what she says in her green New Deal. The 1899 01:55:12,630 --> 01:55:17,010 problem is, if you get rid of all the oil, the dollar is no 1900 01:55:17,010 --> 01:55:17,940 longer needed. 1901 01:55:19,800 --> 01:55:23,160 Now this is a subversive, the whole green New Deal. And in 1902 01:55:23,160 --> 01:55:29,520 fact, the entire global warming propaganda that you mentioned 1903 01:55:29,520 --> 01:55:35,010 was foisted on the children. is an attempt to destroy the 1904 01:55:35,010 --> 01:55:35,550 country. 1905 01:55:36,900 --> 01:55:39,480 Yes, because if she actually thinks she can pay for this by 1906 01:55:39,480 --> 01:55:42,990 printing money for money that is no longer needed, because oil is 1907 01:55:42,990 --> 01:55:44,490 no longer in play. 1908 01:55:44,519 --> 01:55:47,039 Do we food get that hyperinflation we're looking for 1909 01:55:51,239 --> 01:55:56,909 as we know it, yes. I always thought she was subversive. And 1910 01:55:56,939 --> 01:55:59,699 I mean, the whole social the fact that they proud of the word 1911 01:55:59,699 --> 01:56:03,569 socialist within their, you know, the moniker Democrats 1912 01:56:03,569 --> 01:56:07,199 socialists of America, whatever they call themselves. It's a 1913 01:56:07,829 --> 01:56:11,339 it's just a, it's a subversive operation designed to kill the 1914 01:56:11,339 --> 01:56:14,159 country, reset everything. And it's 1915 01:56:14,730 --> 01:56:18,660 actually, you know, your your right to even reset the balance. 1916 01:56:18,930 --> 01:56:23,760 Everything these these guys just said would be gone. It will be 1917 01:56:23,760 --> 01:56:27,600 gone. We wouldn't have we wouldn't be important, which I 1918 01:56:27,600 --> 01:56:29,670 think is the plan. Don't be important. 1919 01:56:30,690 --> 01:56:34,560 Or as the millennials say important. Important. Important. 1920 01:56:35,250 --> 01:56:36,690 important. Important. 1921 01:56:36,900 --> 01:56:40,770 Yes. Schwarzenegger was out there. The it was in Poland now 1922 01:56:40,770 --> 01:56:43,080 where they do in the the new climate change thing? 1923 01:56:43,980 --> 01:56:47,160 Poland? Yeah, it's poles and Luke Berg in Poland, some small 1924 01:56:47,160 --> 01:56:51,300 town. Yeah, he was he was out there talking. Yeah, what does 1925 01:56:51,300 --> 01:56:54,900 he know? He knows a lot. dash dash. 1926 01:56:57,060 --> 01:56:59,220 Know that. You want to hear what he said? Or do you want to 1927 01:56:59,220 --> 01:57:01,050 continue with what you're doing? No, I 1928 01:57:01,050 --> 01:57:02,010 want to hear what he said. 1929 01:57:02,190 --> 01:57:05,340 Every time you talk about America. You're right when you 1930 01:57:05,340 --> 01:57:07,860 say that our leadership in Washington is a little bit 1931 01:57:07,860 --> 01:57:11,790 backwards. But you're wrong when you say that America dropped out 1932 01:57:11,790 --> 01:57:15,300 of the Paris Agreement. Because if you look a little bit beyond 1933 01:57:15,300 --> 01:57:18,750 Washington, you will see that it is the states in the cities, 1934 01:57:18,780 --> 01:57:23,550 there's local governments that control 70% of our emissions. 1935 01:57:23,820 --> 01:57:26,190 And you will see all the extraordinary work that is going 1936 01:57:26,190 --> 01:57:30,360 on in the state and city level in America. So the states in the 1937 01:57:30,360 --> 01:57:34,710 citizens still in bow in the Paris Agreement. Our financial 1938 01:57:34,710 --> 01:57:38,400 institutions are in then pay academic institutions are still 1939 01:57:38,400 --> 01:57:44,490 in the governors. And the mayors are still in. The United States 1940 01:57:44,490 --> 01:57:48,150 is still in. And they're doing an extraordinary job there. 1941 01:57:48,360 --> 01:57:53,730 They're staying in. Yes, we have a Michigan leader leader in 1942 01:57:53,730 --> 01:57:58,230 Washington. That is not in that is out. But remember that 1943 01:57:58,230 --> 01:58:00,690 America is more than just Washington. No one leader. 1944 01:58:01,110 --> 01:58:01,860 Now good old 1945 01:58:02,970 --> 01:58:04,350 Michigan. Yeah, I 1946 01:58:04,350 --> 01:58:07,860 throw in a little Yiddish there for us what the best quote he 1947 01:58:07,860 --> 01:58:12,000 had was during the q&a, and it's a little different audio is a 1948 01:58:12,000 --> 01:58:14,820 different mic, but you'll hear you'll hear what he if he really 1949 01:58:14,820 --> 01:58:16,980 if he really could do what he could do what he wanted to do he 1950 01:58:16,980 --> 01:58:17,790 do this. 1951 01:58:18,210 --> 01:58:25,770 I wish I could be the Terminator in real life, to be able to 1952 01:58:25,770 --> 01:58:31,110 travel back on time. And to stop all fossil fuels when they were 1953 01:58:31,110 --> 01:58:31,770 discovered. 1954 01:58:34,770 --> 01:58:37,290 Seriously, I'll be living in mud huts. 1955 01:58:37,290 --> 01:58:40,920 Yeah, he wish he could stop all fossil fuels before they were 1956 01:58:40,920 --> 01:58:41,700 discovered. 1957 01:58:44,490 --> 01:58:51,780 Yeah, wow. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, well, what are you gonna 1958 01:58:51,780 --> 01:58:52,020 do? 1959 01:58:52,769 --> 01:58:57,839 Carbon higher than ever? Here's a PVS report has been higher 1960 01:58:57,839 --> 01:58:58,739 than ever. Yes, this 1961 01:58:58,740 --> 01:59:01,080 isn't kind of an agenda. 2030 year show, 1962 01:59:01,110 --> 01:59:04,020 there was word that global carbon emissions have reach 1963 01:59:04,020 --> 01:59:09,120 record new highs in 2018, rising the most in seven years. And 1964 01:59:09,120 --> 01:59:13,050 international scientific group, the Global Carbon Project makes 1965 01:59:13,050 --> 01:59:17,160 that projection based on figures from the US China, Europe and 1966 01:59:17,160 --> 01:59:21,060 India. The findings means some of the goals of the 2015 1967 01:59:21,090 --> 01:59:24,630 International Paris Climate Accord may be nearly out of 1968 01:59:24,630 --> 01:59:25,170 reach. 1969 01:59:26,490 --> 01:59:27,480 Not going to make it 1970 01:59:27,990 --> 01:59:30,540 desire to reach a lot of reach. We're gonna see what happens 1971 01:59:30,540 --> 01:59:34,320 when a die. Well you maybe improve things that DACA was 1972 01:59:34,320 --> 01:59:36,930 never ever anything good comes of anything, 1973 01:59:36,960 --> 01:59:41,070 you know, genes or gene. I had lunch with him and Dan Benjamin. 1974 01:59:41,730 --> 01:59:44,670 On Friday, the interesting little lunch Yeah, and 1975 01:59:44,670 --> 01:59:48,780 he had his producer with him Dan did does all the production for 1976 01:59:48,780 --> 01:59:52,920 his network there. And I don't know I kind of hung back on this 1977 01:59:52,920 --> 01:59:56,820 conversation just listen but gene was talking about the 1978 01:59:56,820 --> 01:59:58,950 dinosaurs were those that nurture you know that some of 1979 01:59:58,950 --> 02:00:01,200 the time they were talking about some Show where something was. 1980 02:00:02,340 --> 02:00:05,670 Maybe it was Jurassic Park 18. I don't know what they're talking 1981 02:00:05,670 --> 02:00:10,470 about. But Gene said, Gene genes are set up to jet genes, a 1982 02:00:10,470 --> 02:00:14,250 reptile guy, he's got the big snakes and everything. And it 1983 02:00:14,250 --> 02:00:17,520 was all about reptiles. He says, actually, the problem we have 1984 02:00:17,520 --> 02:00:21,060 today is we don't have enough carbon dioxide. He said, We 1985 02:00:21,060 --> 02:00:24,900 don't have enough we need in order to have more oxygen, which 1986 02:00:24,900 --> 02:00:28,170 could sustain dinosaurs, because their lungs are so big, there's 1987 02:00:28,170 --> 02:00:31,740 literally not enough, I'm paraphrasing. There's not enough 1988 02:00:31,950 --> 02:00:35,910 oxygen components in the air that we breathe to keep the 1989 02:00:35,910 --> 02:00:38,580 dinosaur alive. That's the difference with back when the 1990 02:00:38,580 --> 02:00:41,430 dinosaurs were around. Because the co2 levels were incredibly 1991 02:00:41,430 --> 02:00:44,190 high. Everything was incredibly green, and the earth was a great 1992 02:00:44,190 --> 02:00:47,940 place except for the dinosaurs. So his thesis is we need a lot 1993 02:00:47,940 --> 02:00:48,990 more of co2. 1994 02:00:49,230 --> 02:00:51,480 If we had more co2 We'd have it'd be greener. 1995 02:00:51,510 --> 02:00:53,970 Yeah, we'd have more trees and the trees give off. What does 1996 02:00:53,970 --> 02:00:56,610 that stuff? Oh, yeah. Oxygen. Yeah, yeah. 1997 02:00:57,390 --> 02:01:01,380 This is not an unknown thesis, by the way, just even presented 1998 02:01:01,380 --> 02:01:01,980 before I 1999 02:01:01,980 --> 02:01:04,740 say gene for climate czar is what I say. 2000 02:01:06,270 --> 02:01:08,580 Crank up the co2. Before 2001 02:01:08,580 --> 02:01:13,080 we go to a break. Just a quick note about our model, which is 2002 02:01:13,080 --> 02:01:17,940 the value for value model, we've always seen the way to run this 2003 02:01:17,940 --> 02:01:23,010 type of media experience as something valuable try to do a 2004 02:01:23,220 --> 02:01:26,160 bang up job create an outstanding product, and have 2005 02:01:26,160 --> 02:01:29,880 people participate in the product as producers. No one's a 2006 02:01:29,880 --> 02:01:32,880 listener, you're you're a producer, by contributing to the 2007 02:01:32,880 --> 02:01:36,150 product itself, but also by financing it. And we early on 2008 02:01:36,150 --> 02:01:39,630 saw or learned very quickly, that it's much smarter to say, 2009 02:01:39,690 --> 02:01:43,770 what is it worth to you send us that amount, and help people 2010 02:01:43,770 --> 02:01:49,170 understand the differences in or that what value of time is? Or 2011 02:01:49,170 --> 02:01:51,900 value of entertainment time spent? What kind of laughs did 2012 02:01:51,900 --> 02:01:55,530 you get? Or what did you learn? And that's worked well for us. 2013 02:01:57,210 --> 02:02:00,810 When this model started to spread, things came along that 2014 02:02:00,840 --> 02:02:06,480 intermediated this, this proposition, where we have 2015 02:02:06,810 --> 02:02:11,040 pretty much two ways, three ways you can contribute financially 2016 02:02:11,040 --> 02:02:13,500 to the show. One is through PayPal, which you can do with a 2017 02:02:13,500 --> 02:02:15,540 credit card or your PayPal account. The other one is 2018 02:02:15,540 --> 02:02:17,850 through checks. What's the PIO box again? 2019 02:02:18,900 --> 02:02:23,130 Yeah, you can send a check the box 339, l Cerritos, California 2020 02:02:23,130 --> 02:02:27,030 94530, you can rewind that if you want to hear it again. And 2021 02:02:27,030 --> 02:02:29,250 people like doing that. And there's and if you send a check, 2022 02:02:29,250 --> 02:02:33,150 sometimes you can send a little note or something like that most 2023 02:02:33,150 --> 02:02:36,090 of the checks do come through the banks, though. So people go 2024 02:02:36,090 --> 02:02:40,350 to a bank, or a credit union or one of the online payment 2025 02:02:40,350 --> 02:02:43,350 systems and then they sign up there and then they check his 2026 02:02:43,350 --> 02:02:47,130 mail from the bank. A lot of credit unions do this, or even 2027 02:02:47,130 --> 02:02:50,460 sometimes pop money, you can get money that way too. And that 2028 02:02:50,460 --> 02:02:53,280 goes to the post office babied live, it goes to the post office 2029 02:02:53,280 --> 02:02:57,450 box of piles of checks in that little envelope from a bank, or 2030 02:02:57,690 --> 02:03:00,810 a pop money goes straight into the bank itself. And that and 2031 02:03:00,810 --> 02:03:03,600 that comes out of a credit union to there's there's ways to do 2032 02:03:03,600 --> 02:03:07,350 it. And I'm always baffled by the fact that people aren't 2033 02:03:08,280 --> 02:03:11,940 doing it that way. And instead are using a third party to do 2034 02:03:11,940 --> 02:03:15,450 this, I will use Pay Pal is a third party. So you're almost 2035 02:03:15,540 --> 02:03:18,630 you're taking one removed from even that it doesn't really make 2036 02:03:18,630 --> 02:03:19,620 a lot of sense to me. And 2037 02:03:19,620 --> 02:03:23,070 this is what happened with Patreon. I think we said hey, 2038 02:03:23,070 --> 02:03:26,340 great idea. Love what you're doing love the transparency 2039 02:03:26,370 --> 02:03:29,640 aspect of it. And you know, we have our own transparency, we 2040 02:03:30,060 --> 02:03:32,700 get everyone's name and the amount that they donated. I 2041 02:03:32,880 --> 02:03:37,650 think that's pretty transparent. We publish that information. But 2042 02:03:37,650 --> 02:03:41,040 Patreon was putting a piece in between it as you say, and we 2043 02:03:41,040 --> 02:03:43,710 from the beginning said this is not a good idea. You also can't 2044 02:03:43,710 --> 02:03:46,650 receive checks. And it's just another place for you to get cut 2045 02:03:46,650 --> 02:03:49,260 off at the knees, which appears to have happened under the 2046 02:03:50,310 --> 02:03:54,120 control of MasterCard, who is their payment processor, and I'm 2047 02:03:54,120 --> 02:03:59,100 referring now to the D platforming from Patreon of Milo 2048 02:03:59,100 --> 02:03:59,490 Yan 2049 02:03:59,520 --> 02:04:02,640 INNOPOLIS. And he lives that there was 2050 02:04:02,760 --> 02:04:05,430 more than just him. I thought David D. platformed. About five 2051 02:04:05,430 --> 02:04:07,800 or six people. Or he did Alex Jones. 2052 02:04:07,830 --> 02:04:10,740 Oh, yes. No, there's several of them. But the reason and they 2053 02:04:10,740 --> 02:04:14,910 sent him an email the reason he was de platformed because of his 2054 02:04:14,970 --> 02:04:23,190 association with the proud boys. Yeah, so what and it doesn't 2055 02:04:23,190 --> 02:04:26,730 even specify a so I think it even says your association in 2056 02:04:26,730 --> 02:04:30,690 the past, with proud boys who had been falsely 2057 02:04:30,690 --> 02:04:34,470 calling large. I don't even I'm not even too familiar with them. 2058 02:04:34,770 --> 02:04:34,950 Well, 2059 02:04:34,950 --> 02:04:38,850 this is Gavin McInnes. This is the guy who started what does it 2060 02:04:39,240 --> 02:04:42,930 vice. Exactly. And, you know, they were very quickly by the 2061 02:04:42,930 --> 02:04:46,080 Southern Poverty Law Center who work with the FBI deemed as an 2062 02:04:46,080 --> 02:04:50,100 extremist group, although the FBI and that's been reprinted. 2063 02:04:50,100 --> 02:04:55,680 It's kind of like 97% of scientists agree that proud boys 2064 02:04:55,680 --> 02:04:59,880 are extremist group. They're racist, they're Nazis etc. I 2065 02:04:59,880 --> 02:05:01,860 think there's enough evidence to show there and then that they're 2066 02:05:01,860 --> 02:05:08,430 not. But I do want to go back almost a year to show you what 2067 02:05:08,430 --> 02:05:11,760 this kind of pressure and I'll say pressure. This also comes on 2068 02:05:11,760 --> 02:05:18,330 the heels of heels of the god, I'm sorry, the Pope, Tim Cook, 2069 02:05:18,420 --> 02:05:22,830 the pope of Silicon Valley. Make no mistake, he is the Pope. 2070 02:05:22,950 --> 02:05:26,190 Because you know you when, when you've got your app and your 2071 02:05:26,190 --> 02:05:30,000 Patreon app, and that's how people use Patreon, they use the 2072 02:05:30,030 --> 02:05:34,830 app. When that's on your iPhone and the App Store. You do not 2073 02:05:34,830 --> 02:05:39,120 want to get into trouble with the Pope with Pope cook. So you 2074 02:05:39,120 --> 02:05:42,450 have to do things you have to make sure it's obvious that 2075 02:05:42,450 --> 02:05:45,780 you're on board, so you don't get D platformed. That's what's 2076 02:05:45,780 --> 02:05:50,190 happening. Because here is the CEO of Patreon, just seven 2077 02:05:50,190 --> 02:05:55,620 months ago, speaking with us on The Rubin Report, Dave Rubin, 2078 02:05:56,130 --> 02:05:59,760 about the creators. And this is another thing that pisses me 2079 02:05:59,760 --> 02:06:03,450 off. What is this creators business? Yes, are creators on 2080 02:06:03,450 --> 02:06:08,550 the platform to eff off with your creators? That's what is it 2081 02:06:08,550 --> 02:06:15,360 creator? Yeah, it's a horrible moniker. Anyway, they had 2082 02:06:15,360 --> 02:06:17,130 nothing to worry about just seven months ago. 2083 02:06:17,670 --> 02:06:19,650 Not at all, because there were a couple of pretty terrible 2084 02:06:19,650 --> 02:06:23,400 articles written about me, that talked about Patreon as well. 2085 02:06:23,520 --> 02:06:26,850 Mother Jones wrote a really awful, libelous piece about me 2086 02:06:27,210 --> 02:06:31,050 further to the right than Breitbart. And they, by the way, 2087 02:06:31,050 --> 02:06:35,370 in both cases, mentioned Patreon. Yeah. So you're saying 2088 02:06:35,370 --> 02:06:38,280 that stuff has nothing to do, whether it gets across your desk 2089 02:06:38,280 --> 02:06:39,540 or not, has nothing to do with anything 2090 02:06:39,570 --> 02:06:42,930 that's not in our content policy, like what one particular 2091 02:06:42,930 --> 02:06:45,510 paper says about a person or someone's opinion about a 2092 02:06:45,510 --> 02:06:50,190 person, not in our content policy, you can't scale a system 2093 02:06:50,250 --> 02:06:54,510 based on other people's opinions about people on your platform, 2094 02:06:54,720 --> 02:07:00,210 that would be ineffective, and just bad content policy. So no, 2095 02:07:00,240 --> 02:07:04,260 I don't care who says what about you or anyone else? We care what 2096 02:07:04,260 --> 02:07:08,460 you do, right? We care what the behaviors are, that are or are 2097 02:07:08,460 --> 02:07:11,400 not against the content policy. And by the way, gosh, one thing 2098 02:07:11,400 --> 02:07:14,460 I feel like I just have to say I want to, like send this but 2099 02:07:14,460 --> 02:07:19,140 like, you're right. Like most creative like creators watching 2100 02:07:19,140 --> 02:07:22,740 this, you just don't have to worry about this shit. You just 2101 02:07:22,740 --> 02:07:25,800 don't have to worry about it. Like people like you and people, 2102 02:07:25,830 --> 02:07:28,920 most people who are like engaging in healthy dialogue and 2103 02:07:28,920 --> 02:07:32,280 talking about tough issues like this is just not something that 2104 02:07:32,280 --> 02:07:36,330 concerns most creators. And it like kills me a little bit that 2105 02:07:36,510 --> 02:07:41,220 there's this fear. You know, one of the things Sam Harris said in 2106 02:07:41,250 --> 02:07:45,780 in, in the podcast, we talked about leaving Patreon was like 2107 02:07:45,780 --> 02:07:50,910 this. There's this wave of deep platforming things. And I just 2108 02:07:50,940 --> 02:07:54,300 it kills me that there's that fear there. And it doesn't have 2109 02:07:54,300 --> 02:07:55,620 to be there for most creators. 2110 02:07:56,519 --> 02:08:02,699 Okay, creators, nothing to be afraid of creators. Gosh, wait 2111 02:08:02,699 --> 02:08:06,029 to bring Gosh, back. It's so cute. Gosh. Oh gosh, golly, 2112 02:08:06,059 --> 02:08:07,259 gosh, golly, gee. 2113 02:08:07,680 --> 02:08:09,480 Oh, gosh. Yeah. 2114 02:08:09,510 --> 02:08:12,360 Well, if you recall, when we when Patreon was first 2115 02:08:12,360 --> 02:08:18,810 introduced to the scene, we had a lot of people of our producers 2116 02:08:18,810 --> 02:08:22,350 on our Oh, yeah. of our show saying, Well, I don't know why 2117 02:08:22,350 --> 02:08:25,380 you're using Pay Pal. I don't know why you're doing this. You 2118 02:08:25,380 --> 02:08:28,290 could use paid you should use Patreon you should use patron. 2119 02:08:28,650 --> 02:08:32,040 And you know, even though people like Jen Briony, who knows how 2120 02:08:32,040 --> 02:08:35,670 to do all this without paid her, she even did Patreon as an 2121 02:08:35,700 --> 02:08:38,610 additional. And you could see it as you know, doing it some 2122 02:08:38,610 --> 02:08:41,610 additional thing you would Patron on there too. But we were 2123 02:08:41,640 --> 02:08:47,460 against it. Because it it was a I mean, Pay Pal has deep 2124 02:08:47,460 --> 02:08:51,720 platform people too. And that's always a risk. But but this is 2125 02:08:51,720 --> 02:08:56,610 like, this is patrons got to do seems to have more common sense 2126 02:08:56,610 --> 02:09:00,540 about it. It's about them making money. Yeah. And it's not about 2127 02:09:00,540 --> 02:09:04,770 a lot of others. And it's not this kind of this middleman, who 2128 02:09:04,770 --> 02:09:07,920 probably does a lot of the business through Patreon, too. 2129 02:09:07,920 --> 02:09:11,610 So why are we why would you use a middleman like this? And then 2130 02:09:11,610 --> 02:09:14,100 then you're at their beck and if we looked at the terms of 2131 02:09:14,100 --> 02:09:18,540 service, yeah. There was a lot of stuff in there that we didn't 2132 02:09:18,540 --> 02:09:23,610 like. There's nothing like that with Pay Pal. There's no Terms 2133 02:09:23,610 --> 02:09:25,110 of Service about what we do 2134 02:09:25,140 --> 02:09:27,090 there. It No, there is one thing you can't do. 2135 02:09:30,060 --> 02:09:31,440 But you can't disparage 2136 02:09:31,440 --> 02:09:34,650 PayPal. Oh, yes, PayPal does have a non disparagement clause, 2137 02:09:34,650 --> 02:09:38,790 which is fairly recent. Yeah. But you cannot say we actually 2138 02:09:38,790 --> 02:09:41,010 don't disparage PayPal, but I don't see any reason to 2139 02:09:41,010 --> 02:09:44,040 disparage them anyway, because we've had nothing but good luck 2140 02:09:44,040 --> 02:09:46,980 with them, even though I'll just have some complaints. But it's 2141 02:09:46,980 --> 02:09:52,380 beside the point. Patreon is is introduced as a system that 2142 02:09:52,380 --> 02:09:56,610 takes it it just doesn't make any sense to me. I would much 2143 02:09:56,610 --> 02:10:00,330 rather encourage people sending checks. Yes, yes. where there's 2144 02:10:00,360 --> 02:10:03,240 no dude, you know, the bank takes their, you know, a little 2145 02:10:03,240 --> 02:10:08,550 of a transfer or transaction fees. But patron does this and 2146 02:10:08,550 --> 02:10:13,680 then they have control of your operation we have with the Pay 2147 02:10:13,680 --> 02:10:18,390 Pal, and MailChimp, which is another operation as D platform 2148 02:10:18,390 --> 02:10:23,700 people. But we have the mailing lists, we have I get every 2149 02:10:23,700 --> 02:10:25,980 customer has ever paid us through PayPal, I have their 2150 02:10:25,980 --> 02:10:30,540 email and their home address. And I can get all that 2151 02:10:30,540 --> 02:10:35,520 information, what do I get from Patreon? And it's just I never 2152 02:10:35,520 --> 02:10:40,080 liked the idea this operation. No. And I don't see what it does 2153 02:10:40,080 --> 02:10:41,610 that you can't do yourself. 2154 02:10:42,060 --> 02:10:44,670 And you know, that's part of it. It's just laziness. I think this 2155 02:10:44,670 --> 02:10:45,270 is lazy. 2156 02:10:45,690 --> 02:10:47,850 And here's the other thing. And let me give you this, this is 2157 02:10:47,850 --> 02:10:51,330 one others, I really like Pay Pal. If you've noticed that 2158 02:10:51,330 --> 02:10:53,610 anyone who gets the newsletter will notice this, we have these 2159 02:10:53,610 --> 02:10:57,000 offers that change. And I changed the offers like 2160 02:10:57,000 --> 02:11:00,720 constantly. And it's a matter of a little snot, even coding, it's 2161 02:11:00,720 --> 02:11:04,620 Pay Pal does all this work to create new buttons. And so I 2162 02:11:04,620 --> 02:11:08,610 have like, probably four pages of I think there's 100 I think 2163 02:11:08,610 --> 02:11:12,000 we've added 400 different offers over the years. Some of them are 2164 02:11:12,000 --> 02:11:14,370 long gone, and we don't use them anymore, but they're still 2165 02:11:14,370 --> 02:11:18,030 there. And you can keep creating new ideas. And oh, let's do a 2166 02:11:18,030 --> 02:11:20,670 special because we have show 1100 coming up, which would be 2167 02:11:20,670 --> 02:11:27,510 our first show of the year 2019 will be show 1100. And I can do 2168 02:11:27,510 --> 02:11:31,020 a special whole series of special offers and like patron 2169 02:11:31,020 --> 02:11:34,830 doesn't give you any of that. Here's your goal here. Give us 2170 02:11:34,830 --> 02:11:38,700 some money. I mean, it's so simplistic Thank you cannot 2171 02:11:38,760 --> 02:11:43,410 leverage anything with Patreon. I really don't like this the way 2172 02:11:43,410 --> 02:11:46,350 they set up. It's just doesn't make any sense. If you're it'll 2173 02:11:46,380 --> 02:11:49,530 in the marketing in the least. It's just like you Why don't you 2174 02:11:49,530 --> 02:11:53,130 just throw away half your income because that's what you're doing 2175 02:11:53,130 --> 02:11:54,570 when you're using an operation. So that's 2176 02:11:54,570 --> 02:11:57,810 exactly right, exactly right. And again, I'm going to say that 2177 02:11:57,810 --> 02:12:03,630 this deep platforming ever since Pope Collins, Pope cook came out 2178 02:12:03,630 --> 02:12:08,130 and said, it's us. We're making technology only useful for good. 2179 02:12:08,400 --> 02:12:11,310 That was the moment and of course they were also the first 2180 02:12:11,310 --> 02:12:15,450 ones to D platform. Alex Jones, everybody went after that is 2181 02:12:15,450 --> 02:12:20,760 because they hold immense power with their app store. It is 2182 02:12:20,760 --> 02:12:25,350 because all the journals have iPhones, Adel, the elites have 2183 02:12:25,350 --> 02:12:29,070 iPhones, and you do not want to be deep platformed. So if you're 2184 02:12:29,070 --> 02:12:32,820 promoting a guy who was associated with the proud boys, 2185 02:12:33,090 --> 02:12:35,850 and you've already been de platformed from someplace once 2186 02:12:35,850 --> 02:12:39,630 and you're on Patreon, this guy is thinking holy crap, we got to 2187 02:12:39,630 --> 02:12:42,120 get him and anybody else off because otherwise the pope will 2188 02:12:42,120 --> 02:12:46,830 take us off the App Store. It's a cavalcade cascade of D 2189 02:12:46,830 --> 02:12:47,610 platforming. 2190 02:12:48,930 --> 02:12:52,950 And go so you think that Patreon is shaking it? Yes, 2191 02:12:52,950 --> 02:12:56,670 yes, of course they are. Their app is incredibly important to 2192 02:12:56,670 --> 02:13:01,140 their business they need to people use Patreon I think 2193 02:13:01,650 --> 02:13:05,730 through their app. I'm pretty sure you're probably right. 2194 02:13:06,180 --> 02:13:08,490 And you they can't have that association 2195 02:13:08,490 --> 02:13:12,330 really never understood why people wanted us to use it. But 2196 02:13:12,330 --> 02:13:15,810 I think it's because there's a certain kind of a will I'm on 2197 02:13:15,810 --> 02:13:19,350 page and let me click click I'll give these guys $5 In these guys 2198 02:13:19,350 --> 02:13:21,900 to $1 $1 to five $4 with them 2199 02:13:21,960 --> 02:13:27,240 in fact, and we we make donating hard. What's our donation euro 2200 02:13:27,240 --> 02:13:30,780 is it donate to no agenda? show.com Is it no agenda show 2201 02:13:30,780 --> 02:13:36,960 slash donate? No. It's DeVore act.org/in A it's the stupidest 2202 02:13:36,960 --> 02:13:39,390 marketing move we've ever made. But 2203 02:13:39,900 --> 02:13:41,760 once you have a jingle you have a jingle 2204 02:13:41,910 --> 02:13:45,420 ball red.org/n A. 2205 02:13:45,870 --> 02:13:50,010 Now before I go into the break, I did want to read this quick 2206 02:13:50,010 --> 02:13:56,820 note from Miranda regarding Tim Cook Pope cook I have two 2207 02:13:56,820 --> 02:13:59,790 degrees in English and writing I just want to comment on the deus 2208 02:13:59,790 --> 02:14:03,990 ex machina explanation by Tim Cook. And this was his you know, 2209 02:14:04,230 --> 02:14:07,590 the machine we built the machine and we are the God and the 2210 02:14:07,590 --> 02:14:10,380 machine we all of us Silicon Valley we are the gods I am the 2211 02:14:10,380 --> 02:14:11,370 pope of hellfire. 2212 02:14:12,390 --> 02:14:16,710 We're gonna get a literary definition Yes, 2213 02:14:16,710 --> 02:14:20,310 more accurate, much more accurate deus ex machina. To 2214 02:14:20,310 --> 02:14:24,600 clarify, the machines functioned to bring the gods as characters 2215 02:14:24,930 --> 02:14:28,830 to the stage at the end of the play to rescue the protagonist 2216 02:14:28,830 --> 02:14:33,300 of the play. However, what's interesting to me and what Pope 2217 02:14:33,300 --> 02:14:37,980 cook did not mention is the impossible situation the 2218 02:14:37,980 --> 02:14:41,520 protagonist was being rescued from was usually the violent 2219 02:14:41,550 --> 02:14:45,960 undoing or murder of all the supporting characters. It's 2220 02:14:45,960 --> 02:14:49,380 called the platforming now, one of the most famous examples in 2221 02:14:49,380 --> 02:14:52,860 Madea being rescued by Jason's chariot after she slaughtered 2222 02:14:52,890 --> 02:14:55,770 all of her children. I thought it was interesting and possibly 2223 02:14:55,770 --> 02:14:58,560 ironic that he was framing his analogy in a benevolent 2224 02:14:58,560 --> 02:15:01,470 benevolent light when the tradition usually revolves 2225 02:15:01,470 --> 02:15:04,890 around horrific acts and total destruction in the world in 2226 02:15:04,890 --> 02:15:08,280 which the play takes place. So will Apple be ultimately 2227 02:15:08,280 --> 02:15:09,960 resolved from their sins? 2228 02:15:10,830 --> 02:15:14,280 Think about it. Thank you, Miranda. 2229 02:15:14,909 --> 02:15:18,209 I'm going to show my move by donation to no agenda. Imagine 2230 02:15:18,209 --> 02:15:20,909 all the zebra who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fun 2231 02:15:28,380 --> 02:15:31,980 and indeed, we do mention the people that give us help and 2232 02:15:31,980 --> 02:15:36,480 support the show and produce the show. In fact, twice a show 2233 02:15:36,480 --> 02:15:40,620 Kimberly Davis at the top of the list here in Enid, Oklahoma. 2234 02:15:40,620 --> 02:15:48,390 $133.33 She needs a deed douching bad deed deuced my 2235 02:15:48,390 --> 02:15:51,840 reader know she's gonna want some Nancy jobs calm. We'll put 2236 02:15:51,840 --> 02:15:54,960 that at the end for her. I'm currently in pilot training for 2237 02:15:54,960 --> 02:15:59,430 the US Air Force in the 33rd flying training squadron.

A couple of little just side things they got the Kevin 2358 02:24:03,360 --> 02:24:05,520 Hart just story which I think is funny. 2359 02:24:07,590 --> 02:24:12,270 It's funny in a very sad way. But now this is his tweets from 2360 02:24:12,270 --> 02:24:13,530 2009 2361 02:24:14,730 --> 02:24:17,040 where he was a lot of them I have a bunch of 2362 02:24:18,270 --> 02:24:22,650 my question is Were they funny in 2009 they might have been I 2363 02:24:22,650 --> 02:24:26,400 don't know if the word fag was funny back then or the or his 2364 02:24:26,400 --> 02:24:30,870 his role in the comedic realm made it okay for I'm sure is in 2365 02:24:30,870 --> 02:24:33,360 context. It was perfectly fine back then. 2366 02:24:34,110 --> 02:24:38,070 to I don't know if it was I do have the story of being bounced 2367 02:24:38,070 --> 02:24:42,180 and I do have a part of his gay bashing stand up routines. Yeah. 2368 02:24:42,780 --> 02:24:46,650 Which one first? Which is kind of what his tweets were like it 2369 02:24:46,650 --> 02:24:50,850 was pretty the standard routine seems pretty mild. I think Eddie 2370 02:24:50,850 --> 02:24:54,930 Murphy had more gay bashing material. Yeah, and in this guy, 2371 02:24:54,930 --> 02:24:57,540 but let's play the play the background so we get this. This 2372 02:24:57,540 --> 02:25:02,220 is a little What do you call it the real news segment, Kevin 2373 02:25:02,220 --> 02:25:02,460 Hart 2374 02:25:04,410 --> 02:25:08,220 and the host of this year's Oscars, Kevin Hart has stepped 2375 02:25:08,220 --> 02:25:12,990 down following public outcry over his past homophobic tweets. 2376 02:25:13,260 --> 02:25:17,760 Most were posted from 2009 to 2011. And some were deleted. 2377 02:25:18,090 --> 02:25:21,120 Last night the actor and comedian tweeted that he didn't 2378 02:25:21,120 --> 02:25:24,120 want to be a distraction. And he apologized for quote, 2379 02:25:24,210 --> 02:25:31,080 insensitive words from my past. Back to real artist, 2380 02:25:31,770 --> 02:25:35,670 so most of it would be I think most of his gay tweets or anti 2381 02:25:35,670 --> 02:25:38,070 gay tweets are just game. I don't know what to call them. 2382 02:25:38,070 --> 02:25:41,820 They're just snide comments. But this pretty much based on this 2383 02:25:41,820 --> 02:25:44,340 little segment from one of his stand up routines, which has 2384 02:25:44,670 --> 02:25:48,300 been reposted on most of the stories about this. 2385 02:25:48,900 --> 02:25:52,530 I got a lot of fears, man, I got a lot of fears as a parent will 2386 02:25:52,530 --> 02:25:54,750 tell you got one of my biggest fears. One of my biggest fears 2387 02:25:54,810 --> 02:25:59,070 is my son growing up and being gay. That's a fear. Keep in 2388 02:25:59,070 --> 02:26:01,500 mind, I'm not homophobic, I have nothing against gay people be 2389 02:26:01,500 --> 02:26:04,260 happy, do what you want to do. But me being a heterosexual 2390 02:26:04,260 --> 02:26:08,160 male, if I can prevent my son from being gay, I will. Now with 2391 02:26:08,160 --> 02:26:12,090 that being said, I don't know if I handled my son's first gay 2392 02:26:12,090 --> 02:26:17,430 moment correctly. Like every kid has a gay moment. Okay, every 2393 02:26:17,430 --> 02:26:19,770 kid but when it happens, you got to nip it in the bud. You got to 2394 02:26:19,770 --> 02:26:28,260 stop it right. Did that get it? Quick? I don't know. I don't 2395 02:26:28,260 --> 02:26:31,260 know if I handled my son situation. Right. Okay. He's at 2396 02:26:31,260 --> 02:26:33,960 a birthday party. Right? My son had a birthday party. He's 2397 02:26:33,960 --> 02:26:36,420 playing you know, when kids play, they just play. You don't 2398 02:26:36,420 --> 02:26:38,280 know what they're doing. But they're having a good time. 2399 02:26:38,310 --> 02:26:41,400 They're just doing a bunch of stuff. Right? moving them 2400 02:26:41,400 --> 02:26:44,520 around. I said, Okay, he's good. I finished talking. I turned 2401 02:26:44,520 --> 02:26:48,120 back around and check on my son again. A little boy was grinding 2402 02:26:48,360 --> 02:26:49,020 on my son. 2403 02:26:50,670 --> 02:26:52,890 Like this. I didn't know what to do. I panicked. I knocked the 2404 02:26:52,890 --> 02:26:57,510 boat down. What's going on here? What kind of party is this? 2405 02:26:59,130 --> 02:27:03,360 What kind of party is this? What's going on here? This lady 2406 02:27:03,360 --> 02:27:05,970 came out she's like, What are you doing a kids let them play? 2407 02:27:06,060 --> 02:27:08,280 I said will you showed me another key again, finance and 2408 02:27:10,560 --> 02:27:12,780 my son had on quarter ROI. That's what I had an attitude. 2409 02:27:14,040 --> 02:27:16,200 Because I didn't see it. I heard it. All I heard was 2410 02:27:19,380 --> 02:27:24,180 the whole is playing cards. What does that somebody shuffling 2411 02:27:24,180 --> 02:27:30,780 cards. Too young for spades here. The thing that pissed me 2412 02:27:30,780 --> 02:27:34,500 off is a pissed me off, man. I was eating the buffalo wing when 2413 02:27:34,500 --> 02:27:37,770 it happened. I should have dropped the wing and ran over 2414 02:27:37,770 --> 02:27:40,890 here. But I let my fingers first. I didn't mean it as a 2415 02:27:40,890 --> 02:27:46,230 Hey, boy. Black and became out. 2416 02:27:48,420 --> 02:27:53,940 Okay, Now contrast that just stay in that moment, not even 10 2417 02:27:53,940 --> 02:28:00,390 years ago. Contrast that with this piece about Joanna Olson. 2418 02:28:01,170 --> 02:28:04,590 She is from the Division of Adolescent Medicine at 2419 02:28:04,590 --> 02:28:09,690 Children's Hospital Los Angeles. And she does research on 2420 02:28:09,690 --> 02:28:14,550 transgender youth. And you will understand why Kevin Hart is not 2421 02:28:14,550 --> 02:28:15,570 hosting the Oscars. 2422 02:28:15,600 --> 02:28:18,480 The research that I do, in addition to the clinical work 2423 02:28:18,480 --> 02:28:21,930 that I do, is really involved with understanding what these 2424 02:28:21,960 --> 02:28:25,230 young people experienced. What is their experience as a young 2425 02:28:25,230 --> 02:28:28,710 person who doesn't feel like they were born in the body that 2426 02:28:28,710 --> 02:28:32,940 matches their internal sense of their gender. You know, there's 2427 02:28:32,970 --> 02:28:37,320 astounding rates of suicide attempts among trans youth. So 2428 02:28:37,350 --> 02:28:42,540 about 50% of trans youth have attempted suicide by the time 2429 02:28:42,540 --> 02:28:45,570 they're age 20. So this is a serious public health 2430 02:28:45,600 --> 02:28:48,750 implication. So for those young kids who are starting puberty 2431 02:28:48,750 --> 02:28:50,790 and have strong gender identities that don't match 2432 02:28:50,790 --> 02:28:53,970 their bodies, those young people can really benefit from not ever 2433 02:28:53,970 --> 02:28:57,630 going through the wrong puberty the first time. In older kids or 2434 02:28:57,630 --> 02:29:00,120 adults who have already gone through their endogenous 2435 02:29:00,120 --> 02:29:03,930 puberty, those young people have to go through a second puberty. 2436 02:29:04,110 --> 02:29:06,510 Well, we don't even like going through one puberty, frankly, 2437 02:29:06,510 --> 02:29:09,210 nobody really likes it the first time. So it's very hard for 2438 02:29:09,210 --> 02:29:12,720 them, it's much easier if we can help their puberty early on in 2439 02:29:12,720 --> 02:29:16,650 the process, and let them be suspended for a little bit and 2440 02:29:16,650 --> 02:29:20,070 then put them through the right puberty that corresponds to this 2441 02:29:20,070 --> 02:29:23,520 is what we do over in our program. If we get kids early 2442 02:29:23,520 --> 02:29:26,460 enough in the process, we put them on puberty blockers or 2443 02:29:26,460 --> 02:29:30,000 medications that actually keep their body from progressing 2444 02:29:30,000 --> 02:29:33,060 through the wrong puberty. They come in older, they may be 2445 02:29:33,060 --> 02:29:36,390 appropriate patients to go on to hormones that will allow them to 2446 02:29:36,390 --> 02:29:39,810 either feminized or masculinized their body, which gives them a 2447 02:29:39,810 --> 02:29:43,680 body that's much closer to their internal gender identity. And so 2448 02:29:43,680 --> 02:29:46,500 I'm really hoping that people understand there's lives in the 2449 02:29:46,500 --> 02:29:49,860 medical world, it recruiting necessitates for some people 2450 02:29:49,860 --> 02:29:53,310 medical intervention, and that's really important and it has to 2451 02:29:53,310 --> 02:29:57,870 stop being a political and religious issue, a mental health 2452 02:29:57,900 --> 02:30:01,350 issue, the mental health piece of it come From the way that the 2453 02:30:01,350 --> 02:30:05,100 outside world responds to these young people and adults as well, 2454 02:30:05,790 --> 02:30:08,580 with young people, that's who I understand. And I understand the 2455 02:30:08,580 --> 02:30:12,510 experiences and the trauma that they undergo because they don't 2456 02:30:12,510 --> 02:30:15,150 have an aligned gender identity and the rest of their body. 2457 02:30:15,450 --> 02:30:18,150 So without judging my guess, 2458 02:30:18,630 --> 02:30:22,620 without judging either one, I just want to show the contrast 2459 02:30:22,860 --> 02:30:28,140 between 10 years ago, Kevin Hart, making making that's a 2460 02:30:28,170 --> 02:30:32,730 that's a skit. It's a it's a written bid chick sticker stash 2461 02:30:32,730 --> 02:30:36,270 standard tweet and tweeting about that, at the same time, 2462 02:30:36,270 --> 02:30:40,020 and then was clearly okay. It was okay from Kevin at the time, 2463 02:30:40,020 --> 02:30:44,550 it was okay with Twitter at the time. And now, you see what is 2464 02:30:44,550 --> 02:30:47,610 happening, by the way, it's nothing the mental issues is 2465 02:30:47,610 --> 02:30:52,020 only comes after the fact to doctors seriously telling us 2466 02:30:52,020 --> 02:30:56,460 that it's a good idea to administer drugs to delay 2467 02:30:56,460 --> 02:31:01,140 puberty, so the child can go through the right puberty and 2468 02:31:01,140 --> 02:31:02,700 not the wrong puberty. 2469 02:31:03,180 --> 02:31:08,910 Is that was that that clip almost made me Ill give me a 2470 02:31:08,910 --> 02:31:09,900 clip of the day, by the way, 2471 02:31:09,960 --> 02:31:12,720 I'll take it I think it's deserved because it's insane. 2472 02:31:16,110 --> 02:31:19,050 Child abuse is what I would say. And I would say it's child 2473 02:31:19,050 --> 02:31:22,050 abuse. And it was it's also contradicts the idea that we're 2474 02:31:22,050 --> 02:31:24,960 all kind of the same, it doesn't make any difference to your man 2475 02:31:24,960 --> 02:31:29,130 or a woman. We're all equal, equal equal. So egalitarianism 2476 02:31:29,520 --> 02:31:32,100 would say what there was a make, what would you say? What's the 2477 02:31:32,100 --> 02:31:35,550 point of stopping the natural process? And just letting that 2478 02:31:35,550 --> 02:31:39,120 go through? Because at the at the end of the day, we're pretty 2479 02:31:39,120 --> 02:31:42,060 much all the same. And we just, you know, live with their 2480 02:31:42,300 --> 02:31:44,010 personality quirks. That's 2481 02:31:44,010 --> 02:31:46,530 what we're, that's what we're told. Yes. That's what we're 2482 02:31:46,530 --> 02:31:47,820 supposed to believe. Yes. 2483 02:31:48,060 --> 02:31:52,830 Yeah. Well, that's the kind of a change now. It's just an attempt 2484 02:31:52,830 --> 02:31:56,190 to see just more deep balling of the mail. 2485 02:31:57,870 --> 02:32:03,090 Daniel Amsterdam is seriously considering canceling the gay 2486 02:32:03,120 --> 02:32:08,820 canal Pride Parade. Why? Yeah, the Gay Pride canal Parade, 2487 02:32:08,820 --> 02:32:11,040 which is a big deal. Yeah, well, yeah. 2488 02:32:11,970 --> 02:32:14,520 Well, you know, 2489 02:32:14,550 --> 02:32:18,360 remember, these are the people who move the I Amsterdam sign? 2490 02:32:19,440 --> 02:32:20,430 Well, 2491 02:32:20,460 --> 02:32:21,510 you know, it's 2492 02:32:21,510 --> 02:32:25,320 getting a little out of hand. You know, it's a little it's a 2493 02:32:25,320 --> 02:32:29,430 little too much for the city. I think it's the gays. I think 2494 02:32:29,460 --> 02:32:35,550 that the there's something about the particularly white gay males 2495 02:32:35,910 --> 02:32:42,240 that are no longer fitting in the LGBTQ Q IAP K. Equation. I 2496 02:32:42,240 --> 02:32:45,540 think they're starting to be shunned. Yeah, 2497 02:32:45,960 --> 02:32:48,510 yeah. You've pointed this out before it was like a kind of a 2498 02:32:48,510 --> 02:32:51,780 subtext of the gay non community. 2499 02:32:51,810 --> 02:32:57,750 Yes, the actual the, the OG gays, the original gays, the gay 2500 02:32:57,750 --> 02:33:00,930 guys because you know, gay women gays were called lesbians that 2501 02:33:01,380 --> 02:33:03,750 whatever you call it doesn't matter if you're saying they're 2502 02:33:03,750 --> 02:33:05,520 being singled out the getting in trouble. 2503 02:33:06,690 --> 02:33:10,680 Taken away that party. Student Two 2504 02:33:10,680 --> 02:33:13,710 things I want to get out of the way because it's important. 2505 02:33:13,770 --> 02:33:17,880 Okay. One is the Huawei arrest we as 2506 02:33:18,300 --> 02:33:20,760 a unit. Let's do that right now, because I knew you were going to 2507 02:33:20,760 --> 02:33:24,630 be on it. Because you promised that in the newsletter and you 2508 02:33:24,630 --> 02:33:26,580 actually were which is fantastic. 2509 02:33:27,120 --> 02:33:28,830 Tell me all about no promise 2510 02:33:28,830 --> 02:33:29,880 more than I deliver usually, 2511 02:33:29,880 --> 02:33:31,860 but I've not focused on it. 2512 02:33:31,949 --> 02:33:32,909 Let's play this clip 2513 02:33:33,029 --> 02:33:36,689 at Chinese telecommunications executive is facing multiple 2514 02:33:36,689 --> 02:33:41,219 fraud charges in the United States for allegedly violating 2515 02:33:41,309 --> 02:33:46,109 US sanctions against Iran. Huawei, Chief Financial Officer, 2516 02:33:46,199 --> 02:33:50,369 mung Wan Jo was arrested on Saturday in Canada at the 2517 02:33:50,369 --> 02:33:54,269 request of the US today she appeared in a Vancouver court 2518 02:33:54,299 --> 02:33:58,319 for her bail, hearing, or arrest sparked fears of an escalation 2519 02:33:58,469 --> 02:34:02,609 in a trade war between the US and China. Huawei is the world's 2520 02:34:02,609 --> 02:34:06,689 largest supplier of phone and internet technology. US 2521 02:34:06,689 --> 02:34:09,869 intelligence agencies have accused the company of spying 2522 02:34:09,869 --> 02:34:11,249 for China. Okay. 2523 02:34:12,870 --> 02:34:15,840 I believe this was done by the deep state and against Trump's 2524 02:34:15,840 --> 02:34:17,160 wishes at you 2525 02:34:17,160 --> 02:34:20,340 know, it's interesting you say that that's exactly the first 2526 02:34:20,340 --> 02:34:23,520 thing I thought is this is to mock up whatever Trump is trying 2527 02:34:23,520 --> 02:34:24,810 to do with the with China. 2528 02:34:25,230 --> 02:34:27,480 Yeah. And this is the 2529 02:34:27,480 --> 02:34:30,630 daughter of the of the founder of the company. I mean, there's 2530 02:34:30,630 --> 02:34:35,130 all kinds of dimensions to it. And that and now you start 2531 02:34:35,130 --> 02:34:38,400 hearing from the mainstream media, she can get life in 2532 02:34:38,400 --> 02:34:42,840 prison. She's not gonna get a day in prison. She's gonna get 2533 02:34:43,110 --> 02:34:46,200 over there. They may find the company but this is just an 2534 02:34:46,470 --> 02:34:49,650 attempt to embarrass the administration. I'm Can I agree 2535 02:34:49,650 --> 02:34:52,200 with I totally agree. I think that's exactly what happened. 2536 02:34:52,200 --> 02:34:53,460 And it has to do with her 2537 02:34:53,490 --> 02:34:58,200 involvement in an operation in 2009. I believe she's not even 2538 02:34:58,200 --> 02:35:00,990 involved with anybody. This is this This is something of a 2539 02:35:00,990 --> 02:35:05,820 scam. But we'll see. I mean, nobody likes Huawei. So let's 2540 02:35:05,820 --> 02:35:08,760 start with that premise. So there's that element. Nobody 2541 02:35:08,760 --> 02:35:13,050 likes Huawei. They are considered dirty players that in 2542 02:35:13,050 --> 02:35:16,500 the telecom business, their whole idea is, and I've been 2543 02:35:16,500 --> 02:35:19,680 told this by people who have worked there. I got the same 2544 02:35:19,680 --> 02:35:23,580 story in Brazil for somebody who worked there. I got the story in 2545 02:35:23,580 --> 02:35:27,480 Europe from somebody at work. I got the story here. Here's the 2546 02:35:27,480 --> 02:35:32,010 way they do it. They got a couple of guys spying on 2547 02:35:32,040 --> 02:35:36,210 Ericsson. Right Ericsson goes into a company company Z and 2548 02:35:36,210 --> 02:35:38,610 makes an offer about some big telecom deal and then they 2549 02:35:38,610 --> 02:35:42,900 leave. Boom, the Huawei people go in and they say, What did 2550 02:35:42,900 --> 02:35:46,050 Ericsson what was their what was their price? We'll we'll cut it 2551 02:35:46,050 --> 02:35:50,580 in half. What did they would offer I will do what we did half 2552 02:35:50,640 --> 02:35:54,210 would do it for half the price. And that's their whole business 2553 02:35:54,210 --> 02:35:56,970 business model, which is following around Erickson 2554 02:35:56,970 --> 02:36:02,880 salesmen right. So they there's some belief that maybe they have 2555 02:36:02,880 --> 02:36:05,520 some backdoors but yeah, I don't actually do I actually don't 2556 02:36:05,520 --> 02:36:07,740 believe that I think people just IRQ for the fact that their 2557 02:36:07,740 --> 02:36:09,870 business model is so sleazy. 2558 02:36:10,289 --> 02:36:12,629 Well that isn't that kind of what China does, just in 2559 02:36:12,629 --> 02:36:13,199 general? 2560 02:36:13,439 --> 02:36:17,069 I think so. Yeah. But these guys are these guys are really good 2561 02:36:17,069 --> 02:36:21,719 at it I I ran into them once at a trade show way when they were 2562 02:36:21,749 --> 02:36:25,829 wall half away. They were right at the beginning and they were 2563 02:36:25,829 --> 02:36:28,949 creepy as a creepy operation. They were so secretive they 2564 02:36:28,949 --> 02:36:31,799 wouldn't talk to you know as they didn't like talking to the 2565 02:36:31,799 --> 02:36:35,009 news media's like they were doing something wrong. So they 2566 02:36:35,009 --> 02:36:38,099 have a guilty conscience. But they apparently make a nice 2567 02:36:38,099 --> 02:36:39,869 smartphone I think I'm the one I'm gonna get 2568 02:36:41,460 --> 02:36:42,900 my upgrade that's me 2569 02:36:42,929 --> 02:36:45,269 that's what all all the Europeans are buying Huawei 2570 02:36:45,269 --> 02:36:48,359 phones. They're really moving away from the iPhone least just 2571 02:36:48,359 --> 02:36:51,719 in the the general population the popular popular kind of 2572 02:36:51,719 --> 02:36:52,679 thing that's going on. 2573 02:36:52,980 --> 02:36:55,770 Yeah, well, it's a nice phone though, especially so they got 2574 02:36:55,770 --> 02:36:59,040 some nice colors of the cases is a really pretty phones very 2575 02:36:59,040 --> 02:37:03,360 metallic. It's a modern look. And it has all it's pretty close 2576 02:37:03,360 --> 02:37:06,630 to the Google model for the Android it doesn't have all the 2577 02:37:06,630 --> 02:37:10,350 extra features that kind of muck it up the way Samsung does it. 2578 02:37:11,370 --> 02:37:14,550 So just thinking about it. 2579 02:37:15,660 --> 02:37:18,120 That's the Huawei stars. I don't know where this is going but I 2580 02:37:18,120 --> 02:37:23,490 will follow it. Okay, excellent. Also, another story that got my 2581 02:37:23,490 --> 02:37:28,320 attention is the dawn Hewitt is now a creep CBS story that was 2582 02:37:28,320 --> 02:37:32,790 presented to us by NBC CBS, as far as I know, did not play this 2583 02:37:32,790 --> 02:37:33,270 story, 2584 02:37:33,300 --> 02:37:37,410 sexual misconduct and secrecy at CBS News, this time involving 2585 02:37:37,410 --> 02:37:41,490 the late Don Hewitt, the man behind 60 minutes, NBC News and 2586 02:37:41,490 --> 02:37:43,080 Thompson has the details. 2587 02:37:44,130 --> 02:37:48,300 Don Hewitt created 60 minutes Good evening, over 36 years 2588 02:37:48,300 --> 02:37:51,390 building a legacy of journalistic excellence ratings, 2589 02:37:51,390 --> 02:37:55,320 dominance, and now allegedly sexual harassment. The New York 2590 02:37:55,320 --> 02:37:59,190 Times reporting in the 90s, CBS settled with a female employee, 2591 02:37:59,280 --> 02:38:02,970 who claimed Hewitt sexually assaulted her several times and 2592 02:38:02,970 --> 02:38:05,790 ruined her career. This according to a draft 2593 02:38:05,790 --> 02:38:09,000 investigative report looking into CVS is culture. The 2594 02:38:09,000 --> 02:38:14,070 original settlement reports the paper was for $450,000 It's been 2595 02:38:14,070 --> 02:38:19,650 amended six times and now exceeds 5 million plus $75,000 a 2596 02:38:19,650 --> 02:38:25,470 year. She died in 2009. Why is CBS still paying this money? 2597 02:38:25,800 --> 02:38:28,800 Clearly CBS still wants to keep this woman quiet and the 2598 02:38:28,800 --> 02:38:32,430 payments that they've agreed to stretch until the end of her 2599 02:38:32,430 --> 02:38:34,110 life.

Yeah. 2618 02:39:37,260 --> 02:39:38,130 What the heck 2619 02:39:38,130 --> 02:39:40,770 did he and why is this coming out? Now?
