Did your phone have any issues right now because I can't make any phone calls no receive phone calls I can't text right now, and I haven't been able to do it all morning since 5 a.m. I Have to use Wi-Fi, and I'm still, you know, I guess, I don't know, man, maybe, you know, AT&T's trying to tell me that it's constantly,
Starting point is 00:01:30 this could be an inside job, I am. It could be an outside job. Because when I look at the top right of my phone, all I see is sauce. And sauce, and sauce left. We're everywhere. Yeah, sauce is everywhere. But yeah, we got a lot of crazy stories to get into.
Starting point is 00:01:42 Some of them that we haven't tapped into yet, but we will today. We are gonna talk about a man to get into. Some of them that we haven't tapped into yet, but we will today. We are going to talk about a man named Roland G. Friar. By the way, you're going to like the values and principles this man has on revealing a study that he shared with his peers at Harvard. He's a Harvard tenure and they told him not to release it. It has to do with cops and blacks. And he says, now that you're told him not to release it. It has to do with cops and blacks And he says now that you're telling me not to release it. I have to release it We're gonna show you the clip some tells me gonna like this guy at least the position
Starting point is 00:02:14 He took on this specific area George Soros Funds set to become the largest shareholder and radio giant Odyssey We'll talk about that in video Tom., Tom, how much money did NVIDIA make after hours? What happened to its stock? Just so everybody knows how big of a deal this stock is. They made one Netflix overnight. Can you please tell us what one Netflix overnight means? $255 billion of that company value
Starting point is 00:02:41 created in after hours trading. Can you imagine that? Well, I mean, we'll get into that, but that's the company overnight, while we were sleeping, made over 250 billion dollars. 250 billion dollars. Overnight, while you were asleep, they went up a quarter of a trillion.
Starting point is 00:02:56 Wow. But nobody could tell because everybody's phones were down, basically. But that is what we always say. 250 billion dollars. That's not what I'm saying. What is that? That's not what they're saying.. You can buy soup during the podcast.
Starting point is 00:03:07 So far, the market opens at 9 30 during the podcast. Trump, Trump branded properties are selling for far less than buildings that removed his name. I just bought the insider story. Traders are floating with the idea that federate hike. You ready as January meeting minutes loom. By the way, they're literally talking about they may increase the rates now what yes so you know they were talking about they're gonna Lord six times and then went to four times
Starting point is 00:03:34 then they went to three times now they're saying they may raise the rates because of how weird inflation is and it's not moving we'll talk about about that. No, it's for me. Uh, uh, gig workers on, uh, pay on delivery apps like Uber eats and door dash fell by 15%. A lot of these guys are sitting there saying what the hell is going on. People are not ordering as much as before because when you raise the minimum wage, man, people cannot order, they decide to eat things in a separate way. By the way, you have to know the responsible thing to the, for those of you guys that want to find a way for us to make voting more clear. Okay. The best example of an organization
Starting point is 00:04:09 that is teaching the government, why it's so important to show your ID when you vote is a noble company called Tinder. Really? Because moving forward, you'll need a driver's license or a passport to swipe right and get a check mark on Tinder. So they're racist.
Starting point is 00:04:26 They're racist. Most racist organization out there. Catfishing should be illegal. It is what it is. By the way, crazy news for some of y'all. Michelle Obama favorite to replace Joe Biden if he drops out. This is a newsweek story. Oh, weird.
Starting point is 00:04:39 Exactly. And her ratings have been going up. Only 16% of Americans think Biden has helped the middle class, but he has 130 million dollar war chest. And Biden laughs off when asked about Gavin Newsom being Democrats plan B in 2024. He thought it was funny. We got a few things to say about Nikki Haley because Nikki Haley has just been very weird lately, but nobody knows what she's doing.
Starting point is 00:04:59 It is what it is. Trump had an interview with Laura Ingram. Maybe we'll cover a couple couple things when asked about VPs Putin's network rivals Elon Musk and Adam's got some things he wants to say about that You guys know how much Adam and Vinny love this conversation with Putin. Well, one of us loves Putin And the other guy thinks Hillary Clinton is a sweet angel that goes to church on one of us We never said that dude.

Well, guess what capital one things people have discovered cards And they just bought this card financial for 35 billion. We'll cover that. Magnificent seven profits now exceeds almost every country in the world. Think about that. Seven companies profits more than any other company in the world.
Starting point is 00:05:57 And by the way, Pelosi whispered something. It looks like they're going back to their fear porn. And tell me if you've heard this before, ready? Pelosi suggests Putin has financial influence over Trump and there's some Russian collusion going on oh my god question is will people believe it the second time around instead of the first summer Argentina sees first-monthly budget surplus in 12 years Trump asked about different VPs will he choose the Santas, Ramaswamy, Noam, Gabbard, or others. Gabbard.
Starting point is 00:06:26 You know, we'll give the end. Tulsi Gabbard. Jalzhi Kareem Abdul Gabbard. Well, first of all, the Gabbard last thing, Gabbard last. Gabbard, I like Gabbard actually better. Gabbard sounds like a billionaires. Gabbard. So who reinterpreened today?

Gabbard, it's like Gabbard doesn't sound like a barred call Tulsi get out Tulsi both ways We love your last thing. We love you your lover.

Starting point is 00:10:38 Yeah. So, okay. So let's go through all these other stories that we got going on. I'm trying to see which story to go through. You know, why don't we go through the San Francisco story that we missed out on? So Rob, if you can show this please, non-citizen Chinese immigrant is sworn in on San Francisco's election commission. Okay. I mean, it's pretty weird. A Chinese immigrant has been sworn in to serve as a San Francisco election commission, despite a lack of US citizenship, raising national security concerns. As one sent us, Senator warn lack of US citizenship, raised national security concerns as one sent US Senator warns that Chinese President Xi Jinping has played a long game, long game, Kelly Wong,
Starting point is 00:11:10 and immigration rights activists who came in the US in 2019 from Hong Kong for graduate studies, was unanimously appointed by San Francisco's board of supervisory to the city's election commission on February 14th. She's believed to be the first non-citizen ever to sit on the commission after Carolina voters, California voters approved the measure in 2020 to measure the citizenship requirements, eliminate, I'm sorry, eliminate the citizenship requirements to sit on San Francisco boards. This is in 2020. That's called double dumb.
Starting point is 00:11:38 In her new position, Wong, who cannot legally vote is one of seven people who will oversee the implement and implement policy for department of election. She will oversee voter registration.Wonk 誰不可以立即選擇是七個人會遵守政府的政策 政府會遵守選舉的政策 你選擇了嗎 選擇選舉的選舉 選舉的選舉 這不是假的故事 這是故事
Starting point is 00:11:58 這就是美國最早的新聞 《紐約》的發言人 Rob 請你再一次玩 你會覺得這是CCPTV來吧其實在兩年前我來到三分市 in America, New York Post, Rob, can you please play the clip? Please play the clip. Brother, you're gonna think this is CCP TV. Look, go. So titles. No.
Starting point is 00:12:11 Here what you saying? You can stop it at this point. I don't know. Oh my, like, is this, like, okay. The government can also influence the policy. Many times we are playing with it. Oh my, like, is this, like, okay. I read this, I had to read the story twice, and when I saw that with subtitles, Rob made a good point. Why is there, there's Chinese subtitles. She's speaking, like, if you're understanding.
Starting point is 00:12:39 Anyway, let's just, guys, let's really, really stop and think about what we're doing. She's not an American citizen Okay, she moved here in 2019. She hasn't been here that long. Okay. I apparently she can't speak English But why would she you know? I mean why would you when you have no loyalty to this country and mind you when people are like? This is San Francisco's rules, right? The Federal Election Commission FEC rules San Francisco's rules, right? The Federal Election Commission, FEC rules, bans foreigners from taking part in electoral process at local, state and federal levels. But this is San Francisco. You know, I mean, they, you know, they're too busy picking up crap off the streets,
Starting point is 00:13:14 human crap. But here's the thing, by the way, you know how dangerous this is? I'm shocked. I hope somebody in the Supreme Court, they challenged this because this is what she said in her LinkedIn. I have devoted my career to championing immigrant rights and equity and inclusion and as we guys equity is a new name for Socialism some would say communism where the government controls the economy to ensure Everyone has the same outcomes and diversity and inclusion are used to appoint political leaders and the silence or eliminate those who disagree. And Pat, you know what the biggest thing that popped out to me with this story was China, okay, proving, excuse me, once again, that it owns Biden's ass and it can do whatever it wants to our country and get away with
Starting point is 00:13:59 it. And here's, here's my list. Okay. First, it unleashed COVID in 2020 that killed millions and zero accountability. It flew spy balloons all over the country. Remember last year over our nuclear bases, zero consequences. It's bought over 400,000 acres of our land in the United States, farmland, and some next to our military bases. Nobody cares. We let tens of thousands of Chinese immigrants into the country. God knows what they're really here for. We just had the power outage, all the internet, sorry, the cells yesterday could be a attack, could be a test run. We don't know.
Starting point is 00:14:33 And what a coincidence. All this happens, Tom. Three months after Xi Jinping came with Gavin Newsom, he was kissing his ass. They kicked all the homeless people out. They gave him the red carpet. Now one of his people, by the way, we don't know who the hell she is. She could be working for the CCP and now she's gonna be in charge of putting people
Starting point is 00:14:52 with the election in San Francisco. If this is gonna keep going, this is just the test ones. She's the first one. Imagine when it starts happening in other places in Cali. Imagine when it starts happening in New York, Chicago. How many months ago was she in San Francisco? Three, two, three months. and you check to see what she was
Starting point is 00:15:07 in San Francisco do you think right after Gavin you don't you don't think he told Cheney Gavin basketball court get this is the girl I want her in hundred percent you saying what are the chances that she has influence over the San Francisco board of elections is well Adam if you think about well let just really guys, let's break it down simple. Three months. She's not an American citizen. She's not, she can't legally vote. She's gonna have influence on American voters.
Starting point is 00:15:35 That is, that there's no way that makes sense on any piece of paper, Tom. So correct, correct, correct. And I'm not gonna just restate what you guys say. I'm gonna put a perspective on here so people can understand. The voters voted for this to change the laws for people that can be on San Francisco boards.
Starting point is 00:15:56 2020. Not, and then Vinny's correctly quoting that the FEC, Federal Elections Commission, has laws and statutes governing the federal elections at the federal level. So the voters, now how does this happen? Well, before we move from California, Pat and I lived there when a proposition was put on the ballot. Remember, I think some of the greatest marketers in the world are the people that put propositions on the ballot. Let me explain. There's a proposition that went on the ballot in California that was aimed at basically people 18 to 30 years old
Starting point is 00:16:30 talking about reducing or eliminating tuition for community colleges. And this would be like Pierce College that was in the middle of the valley that was very important for people who didn't go to a four year college and go get some education. Well, they did that.
Starting point is 00:16:43 But what it really did was permanently increase the income tax in the state of California. They could never get the proposition through to do that. So what do they call it? They call it the free college tuition or college tuition relief act, and they aim it at the young voters. You saw it this week in Washington where we called it the border bill, but it was money for Ukraine. And that's what happened here. The California voters, if they were asked to look back at what they voted for, would be having this collective WTF moment, at least 41% of California voters, because we know they lain, would have a WTF moment, because they voted for this and they just didn't know what was in the turkey and they unstuck the turkey
Starting point is 00:17:25 That's what's in it So you guys are correct about the laws and everything but this is how this is how? Propositions are mislabeled to deceive the voters it happened on tax and now it's happened here But now Tom in the aftermath as of right now those same people as San Francisco's or whatever the heck they call them. I like that, Siskins. San Francisco, can't they right now guys? San Francisco, is the guy that, you know, it is San Francisco. So my question is, can't they now?
Starting point is 00:17:50 Can't those same citizens? I know that they said yes to it. Can't they right now go yo, yo, yo, yo, time out? No way. Can't they say no, Tom? And be like, no, get this, either take it to the Supreme Court or something. She, she, this is unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:18:04 Well yeah, propositions can be nullified by a subsequent. Well, I think it's a better question to ask in the following way. Okay. So if you're listening to this, you may say, what's the big deal? Okay. We're a country that welcomes immigrants and etc. etc. Great. No problem.
Starting point is 00:18:19 What if somebody was to say an Asian woman who has been here since 2019, okay, is a non-U.S. citizen, is officially in charge of elections to U.S., not necessarily a city or a state. What if she is officially in charge of what's going to happen with, you know, what was the voting ballot? What's going to happen with all the other mail-in ballots? All the voting locations, voter registration, would you be okay with that? That's really what you have to ask yourself. If you say, hell no, then neither should that be accepted in a city as big as San Francisco. So it starts like, you know, who loves this, you know,
Starting point is 00:19:05 who loves this, she is sitting there saying, oh, look at these clowns. And they're both him and Putin are sitting there saying, oh, Trump would be a lot easier to deal with than Biden. They're, they're, they're playing with America and America's falling for its trap. Go ahead. I have a lot of friends in California and yeah,'ll tell you you know when you when you vote like this and you don't pay attention it's on the proposition you know that that phrase useful idiots comes back and I don't want to be hypercritical or get people throwing rocks at me but if you're not paying
Starting point is 00:19:35 attention to what's in this proposition you're voting for it and this is what you get you get what you vote for. Well look on the surface this seems like DEI on steroids. Yeah. Right. So this, this isn't someone that's lived here her whole life. This isn't some not anchor baby situation that their parents brought them over and the 80s and they're one of the dreamers and they're you know, been here and then went to elementary school here and they grew up here and they're part of the American culture. This person's been here four years. Four years. Okay, so, you know, happy four year anniversary to you. But there seems to be a common theme here
Starting point is 00:20:12 of prioritizing others over Americans. We've seen it in New York. We've seen, you know, we've seen what's happening at the border, we've seen this open borders policy. You know, the story that came out 53 million, I think I said billion last show so let me correct myself with 53 million of what they've New York Migrants
Starting point is 00:20:36 $10,000 on a debit card. So like I Completely understand the frustration with the average American citizen was like, come on, man, I'm fighting inflation over here. I'm trying to buy a house over here. I'm struggling with college loans. I'm struggling with debt. What the hell is going on here in America? And it seems like we're prioritizing others over Americans. At the same time, I'll say this, it's important that we don't villainize others. You know, at the same time, we can, we can look at immigration, legal immigration and say we all came from other countries. Like you came from Iran, you came from New York, no one's villainizing. Right. I could say
Starting point is 00:21:17 that no one in the right mind is going to say we're villainizing when it comes down to election. Like imagine if we're competing in a marketplace and all of a sudden I start having the people that calculate your performance on your YouTube channel or performance for BDC or performance for whatever we're doing at Valuetainment. What imagine all of a sudden the person that's able to measure your performance
Starting point is 00:21:43 is somebody that works for CNN. That's what we do, that's what it is. What if, moving forward, like, listen guys, we're gonna measure a bonus, and the person we nominated to calculate all your bonuses is an employee from CNN. You know what people would say? No, I'm not okay with that.
Starting point is 00:22:01 I don't want that, that's exactly what this is. An enemy who is not a US citizen is in charge of election. You can stay in San Francisco, have a great life, go for it. But to have that kind of influence, that's the problem. By the way, we're talking about New York City stuff. I wanna show you this Asian lady from New York. Watch what she says here, okay? She's been interviewed, regular man on the street
Starting point is 00:22:21 type of an interview, look what she says. Go ahead and play this clip. This is a week ago. If they were legal, they need to pay taxes. What do you think is going to happen with the migrant crisis here in New York City? It's getting bad because they're also next to my house and they piss on my door. I could tell that they're gang lords. I mean, they're tattooed up head to toe. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:37 The people pissing on my door, they're tattooed up head to toe. And then there's no law against illegal migrants committing crimes. So again, it's lawlessness, non-payment of taxes, siphoning all our money to their native countries and it's just killing our economy. Eric Adams just said he's going to give 4,000 migrants jobs. That means 4,000 civilians have less jobs. That's common sense. It's not fair to Americans. Let it keep going.
Starting point is 00:23:03 It's getting scary. Right now, you now, people in the Bronx are getting attacked. People upper East Side, two of them just got attacked. And it's illegal to buy Mace. It's illegal to protect yourself. They're not legal. The beauty with this is- It's she's Asian. Oh, she's Asian, right.
Starting point is 00:23:16 So she's speaking truth to power. But you could tell she's in New York. I've never seen an Asian that's like, what the fuck is going on over here? I come to pissing on my dough over here. It's like this agent lady over here. Yeah, but the point is, you get past the character.
Starting point is 00:23:30 What I'm saying is I'm showing this for real. It's true. Yeah. So the point I empathize with exactly what I'm saying to you is this is a woman that obviously is doing her thing, paying her taxes. Regular person that's dealing with the issues that New York is going through right now, and she's expressing her frustration. So if somebody wants to come here as an immigrant and go do your thing, go for it.
Starting point is 00:23:54 But you wanna get somebody that's only been here for five years to start measuring and counting and voter ballot and all that stuff in San Francisco, you're ludicrous if you think that's okay for that to happen.

Here we go, AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon users hit by massive cellular outage in the US. New York Post Story, a major cell phone outage, affected users across the US early Tuesday, including including myself my phone still doesn't work. I can't text. I can't call
Starting point is 00:25:31 I can't receive calls. I'm on SOS right now I don't know if you are not on all these guys their phones are working minds not the only thing I can use is what he called it Wi-Fi and AT&T seem to be have experienced the large largest number of issues with nearly 32,000 reports at 4.30 in the morning, more than 800 service outages also at T-Mobile and Verizon, the problem extended from New York, Boston and Atlanta on the east coast to Houston, Dallas, LA, Seattle, San Francisco and even Montreal to Canada, a spokesperson for Verizon. However, told the post its network is operating as normal and the issues seem
Starting point is 00:26:04 to arise when customers try to call or text those using another telecommunication company AT&T is literally one of the most expensive phone companies and y'all have the audacity to have a service outage for hours with zero updates being given to your customer one customer wrote on x so your phones are working right my phone my phone's working okay Okay. Well, here's good. Well, Rob, I just sent you the article. This is a shout out to Brandon for sending this from zero hedge. Uh, self service outages reported across us. The website down detector. Yeah, you can pull that up right there has detected a surge in outage reports from users of AT&T Verizon, T-Mobile, consumer cellular boost, mobile, UL cellular, and straight talk. Outage reports
Starting point is 00:26:46 at carriers began around 345 Eastern when Tom woke up and text us at four in the morning. What's the difference between what you're reading and what I just read? No, nothing, but basically there's maps on here that show. Show them maps. Exactly, that's what I'm showing. Oh, are they major cities? Excuse me. Okay, so zoom in a little bit.
Starting point is 00:27:02 All East folks basically. So by the way, if you're listening to this Who's affected by I'm curious, but a rab. Can you run a quick poll? Mm-hmm? Well, it looks like Atlanta North Carolina right in the middle So Tom, what are your thoughts on this year? Well? We had some phone calls. We had to make but they An ill relative across the US and it was about 330 And then this was like a switch, like a switch got flipped. All of a sudden our phones go to SOS, Kim and I are trying to call.
Starting point is 00:27:28 And so I immediately start going onto Twitter and I'm seeing more cities than this. I'm seeing people saying, I'm in the city, I'm in the city, I'm in the city. And it seemed to be AT&T first. And this is just me doing research pat on Twitter, watching the live tweets come in, people saying, so I'm completely off there, I'm in Greensboro said I'm completely up there. I'm in Greensboro I'm completely up there. I'm in New York, New Jersey. It's and and then somebody uses the word my gosh I think it's nationwide because we saw a Denver Portland Seattle and we were looking at it And so one of two things has happened here We didn't lose internet because I was used I was able to use Wi-Fi
Starting point is 00:28:02 Everybody across USA was saying hey we got Wi-Fi so get guess what that means that means the backbone Wi-Fi was still working and we didn't have power outage So what is it? It's either control systems or cell tower software. Hmm. So somewhere There was a failure or an attack. Oh and it was not related to a power outage No, and it was not related to an internet a backhaul outage because internet will have outage too, like a backhaul. And the internet is actually used to connect cell towers sometimes, fiber optics from tower to tower. So the whole network works. So my take on this, it appeared to be nationwide, and it sure seems like it's like a control software or cell tower software because we had power and internet coast to coast. Well, Vitti, I'm sure you'll bring up the movie.
Starting point is 00:28:46 We'll leave the world behind by the Obama. Yeah. Here's a story that was actually a couple of days ago that we didn't get to cover on Tuesday, but Christopher Ray, who's the head of the FBI, came out and basically warned us about a Chinese cyber attack. Thank you. So it's kind of like, all right, we just talked about what's going on in San Francisco right here. FBI director says China cyber attacks on US infrastructure are now at what unprecedented scale. I'll just read it real quick. Um,
Starting point is 00:29:15 stating efforts to covertly plant offensive malware inside US critical infrastructure networks is now at a scale greater than we've ever seen before with concerns over the volt typhoon hacking network. Oh, I have poised for potential disruption. He goes on to say that inserting offensive weapons within our critical critical infrastructure is poised to attack whenever Beijing decides that the time is right. So the head of the FBI is warning us that China is trying to destroy us. Meanwhile, they can do whatever the hell they want to this country.
Starting point is 00:29:50 They just let one of their own run the elections in freaking San Francisco. This is what my opinion is that this is an EMP dry run. Okay, Tom, I've been saying this for a long time. I predict there's going to be an attack in the near future. You see where the majority of those outages are right where Texas is moving up into the into the middle of America. Okay. The inf our infrastructure. Me and Brandon have been talking about this Patrick. I don't think you guys understand how vulnerable and weak that is. Look at what's happening right now. Just with the cell phone thing. And I've said this before. Have you
Starting point is 00:30:24 ever stopped at a four-way intersection and the lights not working? It's just flashing. Chaos. For chaos, people are out of their cars fighting. Could you imagine? You're doing this whole thing. Yeah, yeah, everybody come in.
Starting point is 00:30:35 Could you imagine, for one moment, everything just shuts off, okay? And I'm telling you, if the FBI, Christopher Ray is out there, Pat, going, oh, this is dimmit, then why the hell don't you go next door, talk to my orcas, that rat, and say you're letting them in the borders wide open. So this is a BS, this is predictive programming, just like the Obamas did in the movie, Leave
Starting point is 00:30:56 the World Behind, they have to show you what they're going to do before they do. This was a test run, and you nailed it, Tom. This wasn't a Wi-Fi power outage. No, no, this was an, I guarantee you this is going to be guarantee you this is gonna be an attack. That's why they're not saying anything. Hey look, as a normal course of doing business you do you do penetration tests. We did penetration tests on the bamboo system that was at PHP. We want to make sure it's secure, that our agents data is secure and more importantly the people that have insurance policies with tons of personal information is secure.
Starting point is 00:31:24 Sarah Brin does you pay them to try to attack your software, to try to do it. And what they've said, and I also know, two executives at Sentinel One and one at CrowdStrike, these are all cybersecurity and they always say there will be a moderate attack when they try to do it, or they will do like financial criminals will test new types of emails and things to see if they can get a few consumers and then there will be like 25 million of those emails a week later. So there's always a little test ahead of the big attack and so if you believe that this was a little test ahead of the big attack, there's a bunch of executives at these cyber
Starting point is 00:32:03 security companies that would agree with you and are basically trying to warn people and I know they're trying to sell services because they're customers. This is one question. I got one question for you. Okay, so yesterday I'm talking to Tiffany Justice about how AI could completely disrupt the educational system and how we can take a million kids out of school and have the NEA, the largest union in America, which is the Teachers Association, 3.2 million members give or take that have a chokehold on all our parents and kids. But AI is disrupting, could disrupt the educational system and we're working and having some
Starting point is 00:32:40 interesting conversation afterwards. So what what makes us think with advanced technology, cyber attack, AI, whatever maybe, can somebody how many cell phones would need to be down on election day for me to impact the election? Love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love
Starting point is 00:33:02 that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love that you love How many cell phones would need to be down or maybe even a certain area where internet's not working in certain zip codes? How many zip codes would I need to destroy the internet for 24 hours to affect the election? I think you only need eight to 11% of total cell phones and you need to hit the counties,
Starting point is 00:33:23 sort of the swing counties. Give me a zip code, how many zip codes? I don't know. I would probably bet there's probably 40. You know what I'm thinking. Of course. There's probably 40 zip codes like in the swing areas of Pennsylvania, the swing areas of Ohio, the swing areas of Wisconsin, and certain parts, Florida is kind of swing, certain parts of Florida. You probably have 40 zip codes where if you could impact those areas, you could prevent or influence the swing of those swing states. Do you think that there's the whole election? Do you think that that technology today exists by professional hackers, countries, China, Russia, or even, you know, some folks even
Starting point is 00:34:00 internally here who are afraid of Trump taking over do you think they have that technology exists for them to shut down? Certain zip codes for 24 hours. Yes, I do and I think those countries would be secretly referring to it as a weapon system Perfect. So if you do believe that that exists guess what folks you have the right to be paranoid That's it. You have the right to sit there and say what was this all about here? Wait a minute, this is kind of weird. What are you guys doing here right now with the phones? This was a weird thing that took place and maybe they're getting you to get used to it because maybe whatever the first Tuesday of November is, who knows if not. Now here's my other question for you. Here's my other question for you. I actually want you to go there. Okay. And I want you to process this with me. Visualize this. Adam, I want your thoughts
Starting point is 00:34:47 on this as well. Okay. Say we go there. What, what does Tuesday fall on Rob? What's the first Tuesday of November fall on? Say we go there. Okay. And it's election day. We're doing a live podcast all day that day. We're going to be on from morning to four o'clock in the morning. Just so you know, we're going to sell tickets for that day. People going to be at our place. What day does it follow Rob? November, what? Tuesday, November 5th.
Starting point is 00:35:09 Okay. Tuesday, November 5th it is. Okay. On that day, if, if towers went down in certain zip codes, if internet goes out in certain zip codes, if middle of the the night we get a report that Michelle Obama one or Newsome one or Biden one if all of those events happen simultaneously and then mainstream media gets out MSNBC CNN CBS ABC gets out and say
Starting point is 00:35:39 There's a lot of people that are speculating that because the cell phone towers being down and in order being down in certain zip codes That this was a that is a total conspire another conspiracy from the right wing maga voters that are doing this This was a one election America what they said is they do not want another Four years with Donald Trump. They want a peaceful last four years and watch what's happened with the economy if that were to happen January 6th, they were worried about people going to, you know, and what do they call it, insurrection, or whatever they call it. What do you think would actually happen
Starting point is 00:36:16 if all of those events happened on November 5th and they announced that Biden, Michelle, or Newsome won? If, remember, this is not about if Michelle Obama, Newsome or Biden won, but there's nothing with cyber attack. There's nothing with phones. There's nothing with internet. I'm saying if those two events happened, coincidentally, simultaneously, what would happen to America? You're saying something very interesting because statistically speaking, there are more mail-ins and ballot harvesting that happen for Democrat voters
Starting point is 00:36:45 and Republican voters. More Republican voters are same-day voters or day-of-election voters, far more than versus Democrats. So you're talking about something that would disproportionately impact the older Republican voters who are voting in person. And I think that you would have a January 6 at several state houses as the voters were be Righteous like we got ripped off in Wisconsin. What would I well personally? I would take to the streets me personally as your friend I'm telling you guys right now because I
Starting point is 00:37:18 It would be enough as enough like at what point because I keep saying it with the people get involved And I think January 6th was such a setup that they made everybody, they pushed everybody into it. So now the to soak fear into people, because there's people doing 20 years that didn't even show up. That's letting everybody know, don't you dare, no matter what the hell happens,
Starting point is 00:37:37 don't you dare go to the White House, I mean, don't you dare go to Congress, don't you dare go to Washington. They want everybody to stay away from Washington. What I would hope, what I think would happen, I think there'd be a lot of us, but I don't think there'd be enough because the other side would play the whole,
Starting point is 00:37:53 oh, you guys are, come on, we had a power outage, you know, on this month. You guys are conspiracy theorists, but I would hope, my hope is that the majority of people would say, no, no, no, enough is enough. There's no writing on the wall, they're doing it in front of your face, and I'd hope that people is that the majority people would say no no no enough is enough There's no writing on the wall They're doing it in front of your face and I'd hope the people take to the streets because I would tell you I would get up I might have been joking and I'm like I'm gonna go on the streets
Starting point is 00:38:13 We have to we have to fight that that's when you have to fight or else we're gonna lose it all period You got it. Okay, so but I'm not I'm not trying to say what you're gonna do I want to know what do you think will happen with America if that were to take place? Yeah, well, you know, there's this whole conversation of how close is America to a civil war, you know, this whole situation. I think, you know, if something like that happened,
Starting point is 00:38:36 January 6th would look like kids in a playground. Just like a JV gang. I agree. I think so too. It'd be very scary. We saw what happened during COVID, people, it's the first time it's ever happened in a hundred years, some sort of, you know, world pandemic like that. People didn't know what to do. And then people started rising up and being like, hold on, what, you know, and it happened at different parts of
Starting point is 00:38:57 people's. So in order for me to keep my job, I have to get vaxed. So I could walk in the gym. I have to have a mask on to walk in the gym. I can go in the gym I could work out sweat breathe and then I have to put the mask on to leave the gym So something's not adding up here. I think people are gonna just would be Completely bananas and take to the streets and we'll see what would you well question you though Would you up would you support them Adam, you yourself would be like, okay, this is deaf, but beyond fishy, we know exactly what they're doing. Who knows who helped them? China probably was involved with all these people coming in because think about it. The last
Starting point is 00:39:36 time Trump was about to win again, Trump held China accountable for trade. I don't think this is about support. No. I think this is about, this is about you're at a bar, okay? Yep. And a guy, first time, disrespects your wife in front of you. You tell him, hey bro, don't do that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:56 It's my wife, okay? You walk away and you come back next week. He does it again, okay? And he disrespects your wife, even worse. Okay? Now you go up to him and let's just say you get in his face and you have to be separated. Okay? A week later you go back and he bumps into your wife and slaps her butt. Okay? I know I'm giving you a metaphor. No, it's all good. Guess what you're doing at this time. You know what? Well, you know what happened total Reasoning is gone the ability to reason in that moment is gone. My concern is the following
Starting point is 00:40:34 Here's my concern if the if the left and the establishment I want to put those two in the same category because it's not just the liberals It's the establishment and the left who fears this guy coming in because remember while they're taking $354 million from this guy, while they're taking $83.3 million dollars from this guy, while every single day he doesn't pay the money back, it's $86,000 in interest on a daily basis. While they want to, you know, this guy wants to go get a bill which they're not gonna give him 10%. It's gonna be so expensive for him with inflation and all this stuff.
Starting point is 00:41:07 Not inflation, interest and all this stuff, because they can't stand the guy. While this is going on, the Epstein list has been very quiet. Okay. There's a lot of other weird things that's going on that no one's talking about. The Biden brother comes out and says, I've never had any dealings with Hunter. We've had net things like, no, no, we have proof of it. Oh, I forgot. I never knew I made that phone call no you do you're right here we have it here I totally forgot did I call them
Starting point is 00:41:30 I don't know I called them you did call them while all of this stuff is going on I think the people are if they try to push it this much as a bully if they try to go this far I think I, I think they're going to cause something very nasty in America. And I think America will no longer be America overnight. It would be an embarrassment to the world. Everybody will say what the hell happened to that greatest country in the world, the American dream. Look at that. If they go there. Now, the question that you gotta ask yourself is are these guys capable and willing to
Starting point is 00:42:08 be that greedy and use a tool or mechanism like this to win, if your answer to that question will dictate whether that's possible or not. Yes. If you say yes, then guess what? Don't be surprised if November 5th of this year, something like that happens. If your answer to that question is,
Starting point is 00:42:28 I don't think they're gonna go that far, then don't worry about it. It's gonna be a fair election. That's the after process. Just to echo what you're saying. There used to be a time in this country when someone would hear what you're saying, you'd be like, you're crazy.
Starting point is 00:42:38 Yeah. They're never gonna do that. What, at this point, people are living with such paranoia. You know, they say only the paranoid survive people Are basically they're looking at each other being like that. Maybe that could happen. Maybe this is happening I know that you're giving a hypothetical, but you know on the flip side the reality is our enemies hate us The people around the world. I'm just looking at some of the highlights right here that was going on I believe the domestic one they want but you know, you could say the domestic ones. That's fine. But you know,
Starting point is 00:43:09 one of the things we always talk about here is, and you've said this a million times, Pat, Trump is not the enemy. Sometimes it's going to take something disastrous from an outside force, from a foreign actor, from an enemy who will galvanize Americans. So you know what, maybe this fricking guy, Trump is not the bad guy. And maybe it works on the other side as well. Hey, maybe the, the nominee on the other side isn't as evil as I thought he was. I mean, if you're just looking at these, we're talking about the power outage to go back to that. Some of the highlights, FBI director, race, China cyber attacks on UF, U S infrastructure and out unprecedented
Starting point is 00:43:43 scale, a snutter story. Russia's nuclear space weapon. A risk for all that's according to the German space command force. You know, you see stories like Sam Altman, you know, a lot of this stuff could be done via AI. What's going on here? You see Sam Altman, who's worth billions of dollars, is a quote unquote doomsday prepper with a stash of guns and gold. The guy leading the AI charge is a doomsday prepper. You see the story about Mark Zuckerberg 150 million. They didn't just buy a hundred and fifty million dollar. Hey, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Starting point is 00:44:19 no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, on the billionaires, you see when they're turning into doomsday preppers, it's pretty scary. There you go. Inside Mark Zuckerberg's top secret Hawaii compound and use it's scary out there, man. Last point we had Peter Pry on the podcast two times in a month. I want to say, and then he died and then he died. I mean, it was the number one leading expert in weapons of mass destruction. WMP. He knew a lot about EMPs. Yes, you know, rest, rest in peace. I'll say one thing I've told the story before at a at a Nalba type, uh, uh, finseca ALU event.
Starting point is 00:44:51 I Ted Cople spoke and this was at the height of the election 2016 and being a build a wall, don't build a wall. Should we build the wall? He goes, listen, um, this is the whole walk and shoot gum do both. He goes, yes, you know, the wall is important for domestic, but don't lose sight of the foreign adversaries and taking down our power grids and whatever these EMPs may do. So a wall on the southern border, pretty important. I think we've realized at this point,
Starting point is 00:45:17 but also not being immune and being prepared to cyber warfare paramount. I think, yeah. Let's transition to the next story. By the way, while all this stuff is taking place, Rob, I'm gonna go to this next paramount. I think, yeah. So let's transition to the next story. By the way, while all this stuff is taking place, Rob, I'm gonna go to this next story here. I'll combine four together in one. Rob, if you have the clip for this one, pull it up.
Starting point is 00:45:33 Biden laughs off question about Gavin Newsom being Democrats plan B in 2024. Is this the clip? Go ahead and play this clip here. And then Newsweek, same day, comes out with a story. Okay, one is New York Post, one is Newsweekweek same day comes out with a story Okay, one is New York Post one is Newsweek Newsweek comes out with a story saying Michelle Obama favorite to replace Joe Biden if he drops out Then same day Fox Business says only 16% of Americans say Biden has helped the middle class and same day Daily Mail says Biden has
Starting point is 00:46:01 $130 million war chest campaign he could either keep it or go to somebody else but watch this clip here go ahead are you ready well I'm looking for I'm looking at you we're looking at you yeah so the whole the guy asked the question about Newsom but so while all this stuff is going on, Newsweek, betting company Betfair, okay, is currently offering odds, if you can go to this Rob, okay, four to nine or 69% on Joe Biden being the Democratic nominee in November, okay. However, concerns about Biden's health, strengthened by a series of recent gaffes, has triggered speculation over whether he could end up stepping down from the contest, and if so, who would be the favorites to replace him? Betfair has Michelle Obama's second most favored 2024 Democratic presidential nominee with
Starting point is 00:46:58 odds of 8 to 1 now. By the way, it used to be 11 to 1. Now it's 8 to 1, or 11%. Making her the it used to be 11 to one. Now it's a to one or 11% making her the highest performant alternative to Biden. She's followed by Newsome 12 to one, 7.7%. Then Kamala is 15 to one, 6%. Then it's which Whitmer 1.3% 74 to one Elizabeth Warren, 79 to one Hillary Clinton even made it on this list. 94 to one. Okay, would you say Rob? Yeah, Hillary Clinton's on a list 94 to one. So while this is going on, you know,
Starting point is 00:47:31 22% of respondents, credit president Biden for state of the economy with 16% of middle class families stating that they have benefited significantly. The way this is written, 16% of middle class are saying they have benefited from Biden's policy significantly. You know what this says? The way it needs to be written is 84% of middle class families stating that Biden's policies
Starting point is 00:47:52 have affected them significantly. That's what's going on in America today. So if we are watching this, and this guy's got $130 million he's sitting on, I think he raised $42 million in January. Okay. And Trump meanwhile only raised $19 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. So that war chest is getting bigger and bigger and bigger is this where all of a sudden someone's going to swoop in and say, Hey, I'm the one that's going to be the nominee. We're going to be okay. Biden steps out, you know, Kamala Harris steps out. Tom, are you seeing more and more likelihood that someone else is going
Starting point is 00:48:28 to step in instead of Biden? Yes. And I'm on, I've been on this page for a while and I haven't moved from it. And now I'm, I'm, you know, I've been up at 70%. I think I've just crossed 80% that at the Democrat convention, they will use their rules that are already in place and they will nominate a different candidate for president, not named Joe Biden. I'm 80% now, and I've talked about it before. They're gonna use the delegate rules that they've got. They're running an open primary,
Starting point is 00:48:59 so it's a really three point thing. Oh, Joe Biden has decided to step aside and take a dignified sunset, point one, point two. Well, we really didn't run an open primary, so we really don't have a bunch of results to lean on, point three. Hey, wait a minute. We have our own rules here about superdelegates and delegate voting, and we've gathered here for the convention.
Starting point is 00:49:21 Let's nominate someone. That's how it's going to happen. You know what's going to happen too. My thing is, I agree with you Tom But you know what they're gonna do they're like they're gonna try to announce Joe Biden They're not gonna give him his drugs. He's gonna walk out with his underwear His dog is gonna be biting people they may look at look at this crazy bastard. We need much and by the way You know how beauty how brilliant not brilliant, but yeah, his dog is bit 24 secret service. His dog is crazy
Starting point is 00:49:41 He's crazy his wife is she's a doctor whatever secret service. His dog is crazy. He's crazy. His wife is, she's a doctor, whatever. Here's the thing, Tom. Look at this tactic though, because if right now Trump goes against Biden, Trump is going to mop the floor with him just because of his cognitive, like where he's at with his brain, and also all the failures. So you know what you do? You put somebody else in that you can't say anything because they haven't run, they haven't done anything. And all they're going to do is go to Trump's pass in correction, all this economy or the COVID, all that crap. So they're going to have, it's going to be a very, very, very, very tight, tight race when it's somebody like, because by the way, Michelle,
Starting point is 00:50:16 Michelle is going to have all the ammunition to talk crap. And she's going to have just the blind followers that are just like, yeah, it's just, it's not him. It's not him. Yeah. That's the tactical attack. And Pat asked me, am I still on the page? Yes, I am. 100% It's going to happen at the convention. I'm not making that up. That is exactly the way the rules are set up. So I feel 80% chance table is set. While we're on this, while we're on this, while we're on this, I'm going to read this as well to add to the conversation. So Donald Trump's donor numbers fall by 200,000 compared to 2019. This is financial times.
Starting point is 00:50:46 Donald Trump enters 2024 election year with approximately 200,000 fewer donors compared to his previous presidential campaign raising concerns about his fundraising capabilities. Amid mounting legal expenses have been attracted around 516,000 donors in second half of 2023 down from 740 in the same period of his last race. Trump's campaign raised $189 million from donors in 2023, contrasting with Biden's $202 million from a smaller donor base with a campaign official acknowledging the decline in donors as concerning particularly on small donor side emphasizing the need to swiftly replenish donor numbers.
Starting point is 00:51:22 Trump Republican strategist Eric Wilson suggests to drop in Trump's donor numbers may indicate donor fatigue exasperated exasperated by rising living costs and competition from rival Republican underscore the importance of small donors to Trump's campaign. I disagree. I think the reason why this is happening, they're not, they're not looking at a couple different things. What is going on right now that didn't happen in 2019? Like, it's almost, they write it as if the American people are dumb. In 2019, Trump was the only nominee. He was the president.
Starting point is 00:51:58 So which means Republicans only had one person to give money to. This time around, they could give money to who? With the day key to say Nicky the sand is we beg Christy our good friend Mike Pence Tim Scott Mike Pence They had all these other options to give money to and guess who hasn't dropped out yet Okay, a lady named Nikki. How many money has she raised well over a hundred million and Nikki Haley's donors are who establishments establishment Wall Street billionaires right that are given her the money and meanwhile Nikki Haley is calling out Trump's dementia risk. Okay. Angering mega what did she say here she said you know in a Tuesday speech from Greensboro South Carolina Haley announced that she has no intentions of dropping out of the race at present
Starting point is 00:52:46 and will also not do so if she loses by considerable margin in the state's primary instead of focused on how to make America stronger tomorrow. Some people want to know if I'm going to cave today. We've all heard the calls for me to drop out and we all know where they're coming from. The political elite. You have the money from the political elite. What are you talking about? The party bosses, the cheerleaders in the commenters, commentators world, elsewhere in the speech, Haley also argued that Trump should not be considered
Starting point is 00:53:12 for president again, given his advanced age of 77, which increases likely to develop in dementia. We're talking about the most demanding job in human history. You don't give it to someone who's at risk of dementia. And while she asked, if you don't win the nominee here, would you consider changing parties and running in a different, you know what she says? What did she say? At this point, my only focus is on what I'm doing right now. That's what she said at this point, which means maybe that's
Starting point is 00:53:41 on her mind as well. So who knows why these 200,000 numbers are lower, but there's no way you can make the exact comparison of 2019 to 2024. Good point. There was no competition in 2020, 2019 when Trump was running again. On a person, I think that Nikki, you know, we could say a million, not good things about Nikki. I will say that she at the very least is a good strategist. Her strategy is just try to wait out Trump and to see if he actually literally goes to jail, which would be insane to me. But her calculation is okay. I'm not dropping out of the race. Everybody else has dropped out. I'm the only man left woman left. And let's just see what happens with Trump. She's got
Starting point is 00:54:23 a war chest. You know, this weekend in about two or three days is the South Carolina primary. She's expected to lose in well over double digits. We'll see what happens to that. But then there's a, what's super Tuesday is March 5th. I want to say it's coming up in a few weeks where other states vote and we'll see what happens with that. She's just waiting to see what happens with that. She's just waiting to see what happens with Trump. At the meantime, um, they're trying to bleed Trump dry. We see that, uh, whether that's, uh, legally or whether that's, this is a sort of, uh, low voter turnout or low, low donation. I believe that people do have sort of fatigue. What they say in the article, Pat, what's the team, the term that they used, um, election fatigue, what's the term that they used?
Starting point is 00:55:05 Election fatigue, what's the term they used? I think election fatigue? Yeah, exactly. They're just tired of her. I think people are, I think in my opinion, I think this election is going to be way less of a turnout than in 2020. Everyone was so hyper focused. Everyone was home.
Starting point is 00:55:22 Everyone's on lockdowns. Everyone is just donor fatigue. There it was right there. Everyone was home. Everyone's on lockdowns. Everyone is just a donor fatigue. There it was right there donor for you. Yeah. You know, talk about inflation, Bidenomics. Trump has a base of let's say 30% of this country that are going to be ride or die with Trump. We all know that Biden's only hope if he is the nominee is that people still treat hate Trump as much as they did in 2020. And the numbers are showing that's not otherwise. Yeah. You know, I'm on a different camp than Tom. I at this point, you know, you know, when Henry Kissinger died,
Starting point is 00:55:55 what, a couple of months ago, four months, I went down the rabbit hole of what his sort of his doctrine was. And he abided by something called real politic, real politic. And it's not the the answer is you don't look at things idealistically. You don't think it, you don't do it based on your beliefs or your morals or your values or your doctrines or your opinions. You actually take things at face value with pragmatic approach and realistic approach. The realistic approach is that Biden is still the nominee as insane as that is. And I understand why people are like, come on guy, right now, right now you
Starting point is 00:56:30 have 100% right. You know, shocker, what if actually, actually that the sitting president is actually going to be the nominee in 2024? There is a chance there's 100% there's a chance. But I, and I agree, Adam, everything is on the table, so to speak. But when, if it, cause he has to debate, there is absolutely no way cause, cause mind you, let's, let's not forget once the election happened, everybody would, like you said, Biden was in the basement. He didn't have to campaign. He didn't have to do anything. What scares me is if it comes down to it where they're like, okay, now Michelle and Newsom and it's this new, you know, fire this Phoenix rising out the ashes for the
Starting point is 00:57:08 Democratic Party. If that still doesn't work and they still realize like, oh shit, he's going to win. That's when I think something big is going to happen. That's when I think they're going to shut the shit down so nobody can vote and keep Biden in. That's my fear. That's my genuine fear because look at all the tactics guys they've been using. COVID, locked it down, got them out, insurrection. Now they're trying to bleed him dry. If all, and this dude, this is how God works, if they can't stop him because God chose this guy to freaking wake everybody the hell up, if it gets down to the end and they can't stop him, that's when I think something bad is going to happen.
Starting point is 00:57:42 I had you until you had to say God chose him. God chose everybody. God chose Donald Trump. Don't wake us up to show everybody the truth. I genuinely do. This is where you lose. We've gone down this one a little bit. And I think there's a very... You bring up Henry Kissinger and about what the obvious
Starting point is 00:57:57 that's out front. And I'll submit this. The establishment is not Republican or Democrat. They want control and they're their deeper agenda to move forward. Right now that would be far easier and almost automatic with Joe Biden. Look, we can see what the Uniparty has done on these bills going to Ukraine. We've talked about this and there's things happen on both sides of the aisle that the Americans on the left and the right, you know, rational voters don't want. And so I think what's happening here
Starting point is 00:58:26 is you've got establishment billionaires supporting Nookie and Nookie is running in the center. Just call her Nookie. Nookie. I'm sorry. Nice. Sorry, that's I was reading something by a lobbyist. The point that she's trying to make is to make palatable things, you know, you know, reasonable to middle independent voters that are establishment policies. That is her purpose. That is why she is still here. A month ago I said, is she still here because she's running for Senate? No.
Starting point is 00:59:02 Right now, you look at what she's pushing. She's trying to make these establishment things palatable to the independent center. This is an establishment point. But it's not working though. Nobody likes her. She's not like. No, no, she's not like at the Republican primary level,
Starting point is 00:59:15 but she's creating lean in the independence in the middle. I saw yesterday that the independent lean on a Nikki versus Biden election was extreme. So it's kind of working. So I think there's bigger things at play here is why she hasn't dropped out. And you know, I think I take it at face value. Do you think independents like her more than RFK? I...
Starting point is 00:59:41 Some. Do you think they like her more? Not some. Do you think they like her more? Not some. Do you think they like her more than RFK? No, no, I think head to head RFK. RFK on an honest election with, you know, multiple, multiple, no I'm saying, what I'm saying is, a 60 day run, multiple debates, I think RFK- Because I think even if she goes, even if she chooses to all of a sudden go, leave the
Starting point is 01:00:03 Republican Party and go independent, I don't think she's liked more than RFK. I think RFK is liked. I don't think anybody likes her. I'm just being honest with you. There's there's something, you know you meet certain people that they... I agree. I'm only seeing why is she still here and why are these... Tom, I got you. You know you meet certain people that they can fake being liked for an hour And then they can fake being like for a day and then you go on a company trip with them for five days And you're like dude, you cannot fake being like you're just flat out annoying. Yeah, right to be around. That's Nikki Haley They spend five days with her on a trip. She's gonna know you by the third day. She'll fake it the first day dinner She'll be fantastic second day phenomenal third day. You'll see signs fourth day Hey babe, you know, Nikki and her husband want to go have dinner. Babe,
Starting point is 01:00:49 tell them I'm sick. I got diarrhea. I got every freaking thing. Matter of fact, tell them I got COVID and I'm going to be better by the time we get back so they just don't want to be around us. Yeah. That's, that's the vibe. Now I may be wrong because I've never had that. It's just the more she talks, the more she gives the vibes of you don't want to be around her and she's not likable. Okay. So who knows? Maybe I'm wrong. And would you rather be around her or Hillary? If you have to pick, you're not wrong. If you had to pick less of the people, you're trying to play a game of Mary bank. No, no, no, Pat, if you had to hang out for, for one day, I love that you're thinking about it too. Nikki Haley or Hillary Clinton?
Starting point is 01:01:25 I'll give you the answer. And the answer is not gonna answer your question. It's gonna be Hillary because I wanna learn on why she does what she does. There's nothing I wanna learn from. Nikki. I wanna be around Hillary to ask her about the history of a relationship with her and Bill.
Starting point is 01:01:39 And is it really love or is it a business thing? I wanna ask her question. Not necessarily because I wanna hang out with her. So, it. Not necessarily because I want to hang out with her. Yeah. So, OK, Rob, let's go to this. Watch this. So the judge, right? The wonderful sweet judge, Leticia James, says she'll
Starting point is 01:01:54 seize Trump's New York buildings if he can't pay $350 million out of fine. Rob, if you have the video, I want you to watch this video. And then I want you to, I want to show you something else that maybe none of you have seen except for those want you to watch this video. And then I want you to, I want to show you something else that maybe none of you have seen, except for those of you guys that have been on Twitter and X. Go ahead and play this clip Rob, go ahead. If he does not have funds to pay off the judgment,
Starting point is 01:02:15 then we will seek, you know, judgment enforcement mechanisms in court. And we will ask the judge to seize his assets. Trump was held liable for exaggerating his wealth. Why does she talk like John Legend? Honest, you can pause the right. Honest, you can pause the right. By the way, glasses.
Starting point is 01:02:29 So watch this. Okay, so they want to do that, right? Because remember, this whole thing got started when she claimed that Mar-Lago was worth what? $18 million. $18 million. Rob, can you go to Twitter, please? I found an article yesterday through Matt. I think it was Matt that put this up and then I went to Google to verify it.
Starting point is 01:02:46 This is New York, Matt Gaze, by the way, this is New York Times, Thursday, July 16th, 1981. Post home for sale for $20 million. A portion of Mar-a-Lago, the post estate in Palm Beach, 43 years ago, this house was for sale for $20 million. And then I said, this cannot be a real story. Then I went and typed New York Times to see if this article is still public.
Starting point is 01:03:12 You can do this, folks. This is the article on newyorktimes.com with the date right there if you can zoom in. July 16, 1981, okay? And if you get the article, this is about the property of Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach Being for sale so millions by no sum level was undisputed Conan Palm Beach Society and today seven and a half years late after death of Marjorie Mary Weather post 115 a room mansion, which she resigned
Starting point is 01:03:39 She reigned in is on the market for a regal sum by all accounts the post foundation a selling Mar-a-Lago a 70.7-acre Estate that stretches from the Atlantic Ocean in front yard to Lake Worth in a back for no less than 20 million dollars a record-breaking price in a winter Bruh, you know watering hole of the very rich is also one of the highest ever asked for presidential for residential property in the country This is 1981. It took four years and $8 million to build Mar-a-Lago in 1927 folks. And nine, that's a hundred years ago. Oh my God. And this judge has convinced Americans that Mar-a-Lago is worth fricking 18 million bucks. Do me a favor. Go to realtor.com.
Starting point is 01:04:24 If you can do that, just go to realtor. go to realtor.com if you can do that. Just go to realtor.com. Go to realtor.com and type in Palm Beach. Go to realtor.com and type in Palm Beach. Palm Beach, Florida, if you can do that. Palm Beach, Florida, perfect. Now if you can do me a favor while you go there and put the search, go to the filters
Starting point is 01:04:40 that it'll show you to the left. Sort by, close that, sort by bottom, go lower, lower, lower, right above the you to the left. Sort by close, that's a sort by bottom. Go lower, lower, lower, right above the picture to the left. Yeah, go to sort by highest prices, highest price. Okay, and go to that first one. Go to the first one. That's just land. 2.3 acres for $200 million.
Starting point is 01:04:56 Oh my God. You're paying $200 million for that land right now. That's really nice grass. Yeah, so go back Rob, go back Rob. If you can go back one, go back one. Go back one, go to the second house. The view path. That house is 2.27 acres, okay?
Starting point is 01:05:10 For $187 million. How many bedrooms does it go up a little bit? To see how many rooms it is, go up 11 rooms. 177 rooms was the other one, just so you know on 17.7 acres. So if we take purely this math okay go to the one previous and just do the land go to the one previous Rob you were in right there right that one right there so the other property is 18 acres this is two acres let's just say eight times
Starting point is 01:05:37 okay eight times 200 million dollars with zero property just the land 1.6 billion dollars. Wow. With the land, with the pool, with the club, with all the inside the rooms, everything, somebody could a realtor, an aggressive realtor could make an argument for two billion dollars, okay? They could. Now, somebody who's reasonable could say, well, at least it's worth a billion dollars, maybe 750 million dollars. And if you're able to buy it for half a billion dollars, you got lucky. But the fact that somebody's selling two acres of Atlanta for 200 million dollars,
Starting point is 01:06:13 and Leticia's able to convince that the place is only worth 18 million, do you realize how ludicrous and how funny this is? This is why people are leaving New York. Leticia James trying to talk like Janet Jackson. That's what's going on to your state. Hey, that's congratulations. She looks like Sherman just left without the glasses. But by the way, anytime, any place, the greatest music video. Do they know about like, like, like how, how is it? Like, by the way, you
Starting point is 01:06:39 should be his lawyer. You just do exactly what you did in the courtroom. It's a done deal. It's a closed deal. It's a closed deal Why have they had they even done something like this? I don't think they have done something like this But all I'm saying is I'm giving my basic but that's basically Go ahead Tom. Well, and what she's saying is The headlines she's gonna seize it. Well, she can't seize squat She will seek judgment enforcement mechanisms in court. Those mechanisms start at the end of appeals, at the end of judicial review,
Starting point is 01:07:11 all of which is available to Donald Trump, and he's got a lot of support from people that don't like him very much, because this is a bad precedent. This is a bad case. And she can't take it. She can't stroke her pen. She's not a foreign dictator that can just steal oil companies from his billionaires. That's not what she can do here.
Starting point is 01:07:33 There's a new process here. And these are headlines that are meant to be populist headlines. Ha ha ha! We're going to seize his assets. Well, be careful what you're talking about, because you're sounding an awful lot like you got the mouth of a totalitarian regime and Donald Trump has got the appeal process and other things in front of him. Yes, the interest is building up, but this is a farce. We will seek judgment according to mechanisms in court. Yeah, after the appeals, after he hasn't paid, after a lot of things that have to come and go, because we have a judicial system and appellate system, circuit courts for this, and we have due process in this country, at least I thought we did.
Starting point is 01:08:11 When did they give that $18 million assessment judgment? Do we have a timeframe for that? I'm assuming it was late summer 2023, because I actually was doing some research back then. There was an article regarding Zillow and they had to amend the article, but they basically posted a listing for Mar-a-Lago saying that it was sold for $422 million.
Starting point is 01:08:38 So they had to retract it. They basically said, you know, why is Zillow basically saying it's been sold, not sold? What's the argument right there? Eric Trump made a statement that was in I want to say September of 2023 but Listen, you could say Zillow, you know, maybe they're getting involved in where they shouldn't be getting involved politics But that number of 422 million was what they listed or as what it was sold for
Starting point is 01:09:02 Whether you think it's more or whether you think it's less, anyone looking at this situation saying $18 million, like, come on, buddy, it just makes zero sense. And that's why I understand when people are like, what is happening? But we keep here, and then this is the second time you said it, where it's like the people like, come on, but how are they getting away with it this far and this long?
Starting point is 01:09:22 Like, you know what I mean? Like it's blatantly obvious what they're doing, but they're using the courts to try to do it. Where's the outrage? I mean, besides us yelling and people screaming, like, it's like- Listen, we're making arguments, let the audience do sharing, talking, disputing,
Starting point is 01:09:37 and all we're doing is we're a podcast, we talk about current events, we give our own arguments, we have friendly debates, arguments. Sometimes we throw stuff at each other after the video is done, we're not live, the real fight starts, we're off, right? But you know, and the audience gets to sit there and say, I want to share this, other people need to see this, what do you think about this, what do you think about that? And then vote accordingly, okay, with your mouth, with your audience, and with your vote, that's
Starting point is 01:10:00 the way you get to do something about this, right, especially with your money as well. So next story, somebody that's been voting a lot with their money in video. Okay. Beats Tesla has the most traded stock ahead of hotly anticipated earnings and Tom actually has the earnings and wait till you see what happened to these guys. I'll read this and then Tom's going to drop the bomb on how much the value of their company went up in less than 12 hours give or take. Here we go. So Nvidia, okay, a company that a lot of people are talking about, a lot of people are saying
Starting point is 01:10:36 it's our investment, it's what we're looking at, we're not getting away from this. Stock has surpassed Tesla as the most traded with an average daily volume of $30 billion compared to Tesla's $22 billion, reflecting robust investors' interest ahead of Nvidia's earnings, according to Reuters and LSEG data. Analytics anticipate Nvidia's earnings report to be a market-moving event giving its pivotal role in determining the stock's trajectory. Freedom Capital Market Strategist, Jay Woods remarked, can this momentum continue? The answer is simple, yes, yes it can. Highlighting Nvidia's
Starting point is 01:11:12 47% year to date increase and its $1.8 trillion market cap, now exceeding that of Alphabet and Amazon. Nvidia's recent foray into AI investments, such as a stake in Soundhound AI, has triggered significant market enthusiasm with associate film like super micro computing, witnessing remarkable stock surges. Tom, can you tell the audience how much their valuation went up in less than 12 hours?
Starting point is 01:11:41 So going into the, absolutely. So going into the earnings report, every company on the stock market has to make earnings reports four times a year. And going into that, there was a bunch of shorts saying, oh, NVIDIA is too high, this can't go on. And the shorts are putting pressure on the stock and the stock went down a little bit before the earnings report. Then they came out.
Starting point is 01:12:00 Yeah, we gave you polite guidance of $20.5 billion for the quarter. That's one quarter and It came out at twenty two point one billion. So that was step one everybody goes holy crap Remember a quarter is only 13 weeks. And so if you give guidance you maybe beat your quarter We've seen it Pat like you know a couple hundred million things like that But to beat it by almost two billion dollars, you beat the quarter, all of a sudden, they did it after the close. And then they said, you know, our data centers were up 16 billion of this. So the data centers are the engine of AI. Everybody that's putting
Starting point is 01:12:37 AI here, chat GBT here, is using NVIDIA data centers. They are the engine. This is a boom similar to when the dot-com boom happened and things like we all learned what a server was. What's a server? Well, we needed thousands and millions of servers and data centers everywhere to make our internet go and we need routers. Well, this is the engine. NVIDIA makes the engine of AI. And in after hours trading, after they, remember they made this announcement after the close, and in after hours trading, all the orders come in so you can see the pressure on the spike,
Starting point is 01:13:15 they jumped $250 billion of valuation for the company up to, I think they're right now 1.88 billion right now. And by the way ladies and gentlemen That's one Netflix That is one Netflix that they how was your day? How valuable is your company? Well in less than 12 hours? We made about a Netflix Imagine that crazy sounds hilarious Wouldn't it you by the way Netflix by way there are people out there that that talk in humor in Wall Street And they use company names as currencies and they'll say well
Starting point is 01:13:48 That's about two Twitters and it puts things in perspective when you suddenly thinking about things like this And so these guys to the engine this was the single most important earnings report of the last five years ladies and gentlemen I'll tell you why because the a they used the statement I'll tell you why. Because the A, they used the statement in the earnings report where they said, look, this is the tipping point for AI. We have seen this go from $2 billion to $16 billion a quarter in revenue here. And by the way, remember Pat, I said it was a $22 billion quarter? What's 22 times 4?
Starting point is 01:14:23 88. Their year closed at 60. So the reason the stock is running is they're on an $88 million run rate, right, an $88 billion run rate, and they just closed the year because this was the fourth quarter earnings report at 60. So really, it's yes about NVIDIA, but it also says this is what's going on behind the scenes ladies and gentlemen on AI is all companies everywhere are adding AI to their service and products and I'll tell you something else he said that was very interesting that anybody can understand. He said, look, we're powering what's called agents and agents are things, look at it this
Starting point is 01:15:01 way. You have Dropbox, you have Box, you have these services that an individual person may use or a company may use. Everybody knows what Dropbox and Box are. And we are powering things that they are going to add agents to that to do things for you that you can, here's the word to use. You could hire the agents from us and pay us for these agents to do certain tasks and run things through Dropbox and Box and a lot of other service providers. Do you hear that?
Starting point is 01:15:28 Yeah. So you're gonna be buying services from them and they're using the phrase hire agents as if you're hiring like an employee to do something and this is the future of AI and this is what's going on. So the bigger story is, ladies and gentlemen, we've reached the tipping point on wide stream, implementation and adoption of AI services.
Starting point is 01:15:47 That's still unbelievable that in 12 hours, the stock went up two foreign aid Ukraine packages overnight. That's insane. I love you, Vinny. Now you're playing that game. I did the math. You're doing math. Two Ukraine packages in 12 hours.
Starting point is 01:16:03 I'm not paying three Fords for that. Actually, it's not two Ukraine packages in 12 hours. I'm not paying three for it. It's not to it. It's for because remember of the 9560 goes to Ukraine. Get your facts. Right. I apologize. My math. I do like the Netflix analogy because you know, we'll break this down to sort of a personal finance perspective. You know, a few years ago prior to COVID, there used to be something called fang, right? These were the hottest stocks in the world, fang, F, A, A, N, G. It stood for Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix and Google. Since then it's become the magnificent seven, which is, um, Apple, Amazon, alphabet, meta, which was Facebook, you know, they had, they couldn't do the fang thing anymore, Microsoft,
Starting point is 01:16:45 Tesla and now Nvidia. So, you know, I get a lot of questions of like, how should, how do I invest in AI? Should I buy Bitcoin? What should I do with my money? What should I do with my investment assets? What should I do? I've never, I've never even invested before. How do I get a slice of the American pie? It's very simple, guys. If you want a slice of the American pie, all these companies are in the S and P 500. Go get an index fund, put it in your 401k, put it in your Roth IRA, go get a slice of American greatness. All these companies, you know, people are like, I don't want to invest in Bitcoin, invest in the companies that are investing in Bitcoin.
Starting point is 01:17:19 We've had Michael sailor on the podcast multiple times, micro strategy. They're one of the biggest Bitcoin holders, Tesla, they hold Bitcoin Bitcoin Coinbase. They hold Bitcoin. If you want to get involved in AI invest in the S&P 500, ride the growth of Nvidia. So all these strategies don't overthink it. Just invest in the S&P 500. I think these seven companies had what percentage of the S&P 500 growth? 30 something percent this past year. Damn. You know, everyone was calling for recession in 2023. The market was up 25%. By the way, magnificent seven profits now exceed every, almost every country in the world. Yeah. Tom said something about Germany, Tom, if you
Starting point is 01:17:58 can say that about Germany, when you talk about the strength and power of the American economy and the companies that are made, the German stock market has a market cap of $2 trillion. If the German stock market was traded here, it would be in third place behind Microsoft, the $2.9 trillion, Apple at $2.8 trillion, and Alphabet, Amazon, and Nvidia all approximately the same size as the entire stock market. That's called US capitalism. That's why it's worth fighting for and protecting and not letting these crazy things take in place.
Starting point is 01:18:33 If you want to look at those company thing that I just sent you on Slack. Let's go to the next story. Let's go to the next story. Okay, so next story is Elon Musk, first human patient able to control mouse through thinking, neural link. Rob, if you have that video to show, I'll read it to you while Rob's pulling this up. So pretty wild on what this is doing now. Elon must announce a social media event at X on X that neural links first human patient implanted with a brain chip has shown remarkable progress
Starting point is 01:19:03 being able to move a mouse around the screen by just thinking, indicating a significant breakthrough in brain computer interface technology must emphasize the patient's full recovery and the success of the neural effects stating progress is good and the patient seems to have made a full recovery with neural effects that we are aware of. I mean this is is... Rob, if you got a video, just play the video. If you got that, go ahead, watch this. It's creepy. Joy of connecting with your loved ones,
Starting point is 01:19:30 browsing the web, or even playing games using only your thoughts. This is made possible by placing a small, cosmetically invisible implant in a part of your brain that plans movements. The device is designed to interpret your neurotic activity so you can play to computer or smartphone by simply thinking about moving. No wires or physical movement are required. By participating in the Prime study, you'd be helping to redefine the boundaries of human capability.
Starting point is 01:20:07 If you've been living with quadriplegia from a spinal cord injury or with ALS, you may qualify for the Prime Study. We'd love to share more with you and get you on board. You know, visit our website today. With that accent, let me explain something to you. Adam, you nailed it earlier. With that accent, I'm signing up. But if that was a New York guy going hey put this full good thing in your brain That's when you're like no, but but and pat you don't mind listen guys. I'm
Starting point is 01:20:32 Before I even start this I respect Elon Musk. I think he's brilliant I think what he's done for a speech of free speech and buying X is all cool But just devil's advocate you never know when somebody might be a wolf in sheep's clothing and I'm saying this, like think about what's happening. If Elon Musk didn't buy Twitter and give us a free speech platform, and that was happening,
Starting point is 01:20:56 wouldn't you be asking a lot more questions? Like right now we're kind of baffled, like what, wait, what, a chip in the brain? If he didn't give us that, if he didn't champion this free speech movement, I think we'd be judging the hell out of him. Because think about it, think about what he's doing. He's launched, every other week there's a new SpaceX launch.
Starting point is 01:21:11 Ever noticed that? They're launching all these stuff, these low orbit satellites. Some are saying, man, he's trying to set up this ultra magnetic thing for all the 5G and the 6G and the 7Gs that are coming. He launches Tesla, okay, which is, you know, they're trying to go autonomous vehicles where, you know, at some point Tom, the car is going to do what it wants to do
Starting point is 01:21:29 if that's what some of the fears are. Waymo cars did that in Phoenix and people set them on fire. Exactly. And then now he has Neuralink where there's a chip in your brain. Okay, if he didn't buy Twitter, it'd be crazy. But and here's where I'm going with this. I think, I think I lost my page, but the future is connecting the human brain with AI, right? With all that cloud stuff that he's talking about. Ray Kurzweil is one of the leading guys where he's like, we're gonna be incorporated,
Starting point is 01:21:54 but there was a big problem with him because they were worried about an art-elect war where artificial intelligence is now gonna think that they're smarter than us, and we're gonna have a fight. SpaceX is leading the way. But then thing about, if he's this free speech guy, then why all of a sudden he's doing these deals with the Pentagon? What's that story, Rob? I think he did one where, oh yeah, where Musk's Spacex for just a tighter links with US spy and military agencies. They're supposedly hating him because
Starting point is 01:22:19 he's giving us this free speech, but he's working with them. And then who's this say, guys, really think about this. This microchip is in your brain, right? Even though that nice British accent, and I'm going to put you, but who's to say that at one point he can't go on his phone and control what the hell you're doing. You know what I mean? Listen to what I'm doing. Go buy this. Go do this. Go into this building and start shooting. I think this is a very, very, very slippery slope. And I think, again, just being devil's advocate, everybody loves Elon Musk, but nobody's
Starting point is 01:22:49 asking the real questions like, what is the end game? Cause bro, he's a businessman at the end of the day and he's trying to make money. Am I right? Yeah. No doubt with Elon, well, let's give credit where credit's due. You know, he was just nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize. Yeah, that's fine. So that's fine. I mean, I'm saying good for good for him, but still. So and why was he nominated? It's because he's a stout proponent of free speech. Obviously, this is regarding Twitter now X. But if you said two, three years ago, Elon Musk, when he became the richest man in the world right around COVID, that he's being nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize, if you had to put money on the reason why
Starting point is 01:23:26 you would have gone down the list and you would have been like, well, you know, green energy with Tesla, everything is building with the tunnels, with the boring company out there in California, SpaceX going to the moon, everything they're doing with that, going to space, Starlink,
Starting point is 01:23:40 everything that's going on with the satellites, he's supported Ukraine against Russia and the fight and the war. I don't know if you knew that, but he was using Starlink to support Ukraine, Newer link, helping sick people be able to move their body. Everything with that. No. He just bought Twitter for $44 billion, lost money. The number one 503 company in the world at this point, at this point, But it's pretty impressive what this guy's done. He's a builder, he's a creator,
Starting point is 01:24:07 and I actually think he's gonna win the Nobel Peace Prize for free speech. Tom. You know, I see the other side of this. We went all the way down to Musk here. The benefits of Neuralink, I was invited when I saw Jobs and Gatespeak, I was invited and when I saw Jobs and Gatespeak, the following year, at that same conference, following year, I met a guy, I talked to him for about a half hour.
Starting point is 01:24:35 His name is Dean Common, and he runs DARPA, and he showed all of us the early prototypes of what became the Luke arm, where he was trying to put arms, yes, that's him. He was trying to put arms back on to soldiers that had lost the full limb. And his theory was that the nerves that were in your shoulder were still there, even though the arm was cut off. And if he could get the arm and technology to listen to the nerves, that you could actually have a soldier with an artificial arm able to do things.
Starting point is 01:25:12 And I saw the prototype on a guy feed himself with a spoon from a bowl. And this was a soldier that had lost his arm. And if you look up the Luke arm, so why am I saying this? Neuralink is a progression that you can go back to the work of like, of Dean Kamm and DARPA that are trying to do things.
Starting point is 01:25:34 There's always gonna be like a downside, like we're making robots, we're making super soldiers, we're doing things. This was an arm designed to give mobility back to somebody that had lost it. And so look at the good that can happen. And by the way, that looks like robotic, but remember, it's got to listen to something. The nerves in your body that are telling you to move have little electronic. To the right person. This is life changing, by the way.
Starting point is 01:26:00 Well, big time. I watched a veteran feed himself for the first time in years. I saw it with my own eyes. The veteran with the arm was taking a spoon and feeding himself oatmeal and getting emotional that he had mobility back. So the things that are going on here, and I think what Musk is doing, and take that from moving a mouse to being able to be, you know, functional again for somebody who's been injured. There's always going to be a dark side, oh, they're going to make a bunch of robots, soldiers, and we're going to fight the war like that. But my point is, I think there's a lot of
Starting point is 01:26:33 good that's being happened here, and I think the same core of must that brought us feed speech is thinking about Neuralink. I don't think he's thinking about soldiers in defense. Does he understand the risk? Sure he does. You hear him saying things about AI and the risk of AI in certain circumstances. Well, if you're, if you're, hold on, but if you, if you're the guy, He's a humanist. Yup. You have a hold on, but if you're the guy that's saying AI could end humanity, why are you putting chips in people's brains that are going to be ultimately connected with AI? So all I'm saying is, and I, I, I, Tom, I respect that. And I think it's amazing. But the end of the day, it's like, you know,
Starting point is 01:27:04 you can ask questions and be like, yo dude, what, if you're saying one thing, but you're doing the other thing, like, what are we talking about here? I just, it's a slippery slope and it's going to get pretty crazy. Pretty fast. You don't have to put it in your head, dude. You don't have to put an early link in your head. Let me ask you, let me ask you, Tom. And by the way, Rob, can you do me a favor and run a poll? Okay, run a poll. Would you consider putting Neuralink in your brain? Don't say anything.
Starting point is 01:27:35 You're gonna follow? I've already ran one. It's running right now, actually. 86% of the audience, 2,500 people have voted. 86% of the audience says no, they would not get a Neuralink in their brain. So let me ask this other question, though. What would follow up? What would need to happen for you to consider doing that? Because remember, there was this thing back in the day, some of you guys may remember it was called photo albums. Remember that thing
Starting point is 01:28:00 back in the days? It's nowadays, if you have it in your house, you have to be above 70 years old, right? Because nobody has photo albums anymore. Nowadays, everything's with photo albums as what? Instagram, you know how you go see your friend, like, oh my God, I haven't seen you for six years, but dude, I feel like I know everything that's going on in your life. Why is that because of Instagram being the photo album?
Starting point is 01:28:19 Okay, when social media first came, I was very late to get on Facebook, very late. Everybody was getting on Facebook. I'm like, there's no way in the world I'm gonna get on Facebook and post pictures of my life there. Are you out of your freaking mind? And then I did. And then this other four square thing came out.
Starting point is 01:28:35 Yeah, check in where you are. You want me to tell people where I'm at so they can come and hunt me? Now this is how Middle Eastern things. Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course. I'm not gonna say where I'm at, with what bar I'm at, with business I'm at. Tom, would you at all, at what point
Starting point is 01:28:47 would you consider putting the neural in chip in your head? This goes to all of you guys. At what point? I'll answer that here. The 86% of the people that voted no, voted no with a healthy arm to move a mouse and to click the no button. Now let's take a poll of people who have been debilitated
Starting point is 01:29:07 and maybe need it to be healed or brought back. And if I was in a condition that it offered me the ability to get part of my life back or part of get mobility back, yes, I would consider it. Okay, so watch this. Let's just say you're 78 years old and you officially have dementia. Yeah, let's just call you Joseph. I don't 81 years old
Starting point is 01:29:27 Okay, and joy be whatever The people at your company keep pointing it out to you and you're like, so what if what if all of a sudden I'm being serious with you What all of a sudden? This guy named Joseph who lives in DC. Okay, but I think it's called Pittsburgh Avenue or Pennsylvania This guy named Joseph, who lives in DC. Okay, but it's got things called Pittsburgh Avenue or Pennsylvania, something like that. So what if this guy named Joseph calls Elon Musk and says, listen, bro, if you put this chip in, okay,
Starting point is 01:29:53 he takes it, next thing you know, press conference. Hello everybody, so what questions do you have? And he's just like, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam. He's killing it. And we're like, hold him, everyone's gonna be voting for this guy. So guess what? Bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, before make AI great like Jen. Let's go. You know they used to call me sleepy Joe, but now I can't sleep. I'm up on the high. I'm gonna stop you.
Starting point is 01:30:28 I'm gonna stop you. You're gonna crush your brain. One night, there's your, there's your. He starts to get down. Oh my God. He's starting to get to second. There's a downside. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:30:38 Downside, because halfway around the world, G goes, it says, Wing Chow, yeah. Stop trying to hack the Federal Reserve Board. Just hack that guy. Oh God, that's over, now here we go. But by the way, and that's a brilliant idea. And that guy, Joe's wife, if she's a doctor, she could do the surgery and put the thing in his head.
Starting point is 01:30:57 So he doesn't have to go pay for this. What if like, you know, there's side conversations and Joseph's like, listen, I want the AMG package. I want, I want like the fully loaded. They're going to know though. They're going to know that you're too advanced. Let just, just as long as you're not in your underwear, I just, I just want you to think like how those presents, well, do you remember in 1928, when this, I'm sometimes, sometimes
Starting point is 01:31:18 I'm, and how about the time that that's general distance in 1826? And what about the time that there's a general distance in 1826 and what about the time the dad you don't what do you say this guy you know Yeah, keep that late-breaking news late-breaking new dislike in a weird turn of events Joseph Biden approval rating 96% Amongst Republicans debt and we're out of debt the war is over and sir plan. Thank you Now make shit like Viagra for your brain. It is. It really is. Imagine that. It really is. So answer your question. How many people would you say would actually do this? Well, if we learned anything from the migrant crisis and
Starting point is 01:31:51 the sanctuary, we're my, the migrant crisis crisis crisis crisis. The might people don't take notice until things personally affect you. So the sanctuary cities, the people in New York and the Chicago and the blue states and the blue cities They're like, ah, you know, let them in the border. They can come in. What are you? It's wrong with you But when they get shipped to Nantucket or Martha's Vineyard to show up in New York, all of a sudden they beat the shit out of cops They start taking your money all of a sudden. It's like, yeah I'm not liking this whatsoever. So I don't think any healthy able person would not put this in their body
Starting point is 01:32:24 Until it affects you I think long term if there's a company that's hiring six people Three of them have this chip in their bed. The other three don't in the interview process The guy asks a question How do you handle something like this and the guy just spits out the best strategy and gets on the board and writes out Exactly what to do to solve it according to mathematical formulas. The other three are gonna be like, all right, next. This guy's gonna be like, look, but what matters more?
Starting point is 01:32:53 What matters more? I have a real brain. So then, Dan, you know, it'll be the same thing, which by the way, this is gonna get very political very quickly. I think it's gonna take about 10 years. You know what's gonna happen. You know how those guys that wear the shirts, yeah, unvaxxed sperm. What is the, you know,
Starting point is 01:33:08 you know, $7,000 for providing our friend Luke has $7,000 vaccinated. So I've not been vaccinated and all this stuff. Then the guys on like Tinder are saying, I never took the vaccine. So it's like, this is who I am. I think you could get to that point where it's going to be, do you want the real thing? It's like, Hey, do you want fake boobs? You want real boobs? What would you like? Right? Oh, and could you make a real brain? You want to say they're saying what that chip, the future is you're going to be able to learn any language or, and can you imagine Tom
Starting point is 01:33:38 sitting here like against the door flying gets hit and he goes from English to slamer or like, you keep punching Tom to just go through all the languages. Ach-tung! Ach-tung! German comes out. Ah, wow. On Vax Berm, 7,000 alone. Ladies, I'm on Vax. To my German friends, I'm looking to my left
Starting point is 01:33:54 to Kasmish Malamashlekin. Oh, whoa, whoa, Tom. You have a link in there? Sounded a little too natural. There's your audience here. Who's your audience? Who's your audience? Who's your audience?
Starting point is 01:34:03 All right, next. The, next. Hang on one second, we got time. Next, I'm going to go to Rob. Can you pull up the story of the professor in Harvard on what he did? Roland G. Friar, I believe, right? Harvard professor says, all hell broke loose when his study found no racial bias in police shooting. What? This is Roland Fryer. So a Harvard professor said that all hell broke loose. I read this already. During a sit down conversation with Barry Weiss of Free Press, Harvard economics professor
Starting point is 01:34:41 Roland Fryer discussed a fallout from a 2016 study. He published on racial bias in Houston policing. The study found that police were more than twice as likely to manhandle, beat or use some other kind of non-fatal force against blacks and Hispanics than against people of other races. However, the data also determined that officers were 23.8% less likely to shoot blacks and 8.5% less likely to shoot Hispanics than they were to shoot whites. Wait a minute, what?
Starting point is 01:35:12 That means a narrative. So can you please play, show us face, let the audience see his face. There you go. Can you please play the clip Rob, that ties a little bit interesting, but can you please play the clip, play this clip here, go for it. Listen up everybody. I had colleagues take me into to the side and say Don't publish this
Starting point is 01:35:31 You'll ruin your career Hmm, I said, what are you talking about? I said, what's wrong with it? Do you believe the first part? Yes Do you believe the second part? Well, it's the issue is they just don't fit together. We like the first one but you should publish the second one another time. We collected millions of observations on everyday use of force that wasn't lethal. We collected thousands of observations on lethal force
Starting point is 01:36:03 and it was in this moment 2016 that I realized people lose their minds when they don't like the result. So what my paper showed, you'll see tomorrow, like some of you, was that, yes, we saw some bias in the low level uses of force every day pushing up against cars and things like that. People sent to like that result. But we didn't find any racial bias in police
Starting point is 01:36:29 shootings. Now, that was really surprising to me because I expected to see it. The little known fact is I had eight full-time RAs that it took to do this over nearly a year. When I found the surprising result, I hired eight fresh ones and redid it. Wow. Wow. To make sure. For a year. For a year. The same as I can. I thought it was robust. And then I went to go give it and my god, all hell broke loose. It was a hundred and four page dense, economics paper with 150 page appendix, okay? Holy moly. It was posted for four minutes when I got my first email, this is full of shit.
Starting point is 01:37:13 Doesn't make any sense. And I wrote back, how'd you read it that fast? That's amazing. Neuralyne. You are a genius! I lived under police protection for about 30 or 40 days. I had a seven-day-old daughter at the time. I remember going shopping for it because when you have a newborn, you think you have enough diapers, you don't.
Starting point is 01:37:39 So I was going to the grocery store to get diapers with an armed guard. It was crazy. It was really truly crazy. Wow. This is a pro. Wow. Mind you, this isn't just an average guy that hired a bunch of people. This is a Harvard professor guys. This guy is freaking brilliant. Hired all these people. Well, you know, you know what that says to me? That, because think about it, he told other colleagues, and for them to say, don't put that out, that is 100%, they don't wanna destroy the narrative of keeping us dividing and conquering us.
Starting point is 01:38:14 Because think about it, you know what that means? All that BLM, all that defund the police, all that BS, it was pointless, because come to find out, cops that are messed up shoot everybody. It's like almost Equally everybody's getting the same thing. Yes. I guess they're because this was in Houston, right Rob There's in Houston people getting pushed up against cars and okay, but I mean Houston I mean, I don't know what the the African-American compared to Hispanic to white population. I've been to Houston It's pretty it's pretty freakin wild in Houston, but I love I love what he did. I'm very pissed off
Starting point is 01:38:46 I know he's not gonna say the names of the people that are saying don't put the why would you put the report out? Why like we're we're supposed to stay like this We're supposed to stay where these guys are evil the cops are wrong and and we're the victims I think I'm proud of him, but I wish I wish we find out who these people were to hold them accountable for their neck by the way, just so everybody knows this guy, uh, uh, he is a fellow at American Academy in arts and science and recipient of the Calvo Armand Gull Prize and a presidential early career award for scientists and engineers at age 30. Check this out. He became the youngest African American to receive tenure at Harvard. What? At age 30. He received a tenure at Harvard. What? At age 30, he received tenure. Tom. So there's two things here.
Starting point is 01:39:29 I'm not surprised by this. I'm just surprised that it's taken this long to get out because the narrative is allergic to facts and they will find in their allergic reaction, there's no claritin for truth. And that's what they have to live with. And that's what this is. And they're trying, you have to remember, take a look at the signs outside the Supreme Court right now. The signs outside the Supreme Court are saying, you know, remove Trump from ballot,
Starting point is 01:40:00 like they're lobbying the court, but the court is looking for truth and the assessment of the laws and he's going to be on the Colorado ballot because there's no basis. But the narrative wants political will to determine outcome. And if they want facts that back up that will, and they don't get it. So I'll go back to my point so you can write it down again. The narrative is allergic to facts and when they start having breaking out in hives, they find that there's no claritin for truth
Starting point is 01:40:32 and they hate it. And that's what they tried to do to this guy, the youngest tenured fellow in Harvard history. African-American, yeah. This is the definition of facts don't care about your feelings. You know, talked about facts. Don't care about your feelings. You know talked about facts They asked him multiple times. Don't do this man. This is gonna ruin everything. We're working on yeah
Starting point is 01:40:52 This is gonna ruin our entire narrative. It's gonna ruin our entire story. Please Don't tell the truth. Wow. And what do you do? He told the truth. I'm gonna double fact check this Yeah, I'm to hire another research team. I'm going to go double out of my way to prove my point that this is the actual reality of this. Now here's where I'm going to catch some heat from the comment section, especially from the Hamas Brigade. I said about a month ago that BLM is the equivalent of Gaza. What does that mean? What does that mean? Because every weekend, nobody wants to talk about it. Black on black crime in Baltimore, in DC, in Philadelphia, in all these big blue cities, Chicago, especially people are murdered every day of the year.
Starting point is 01:41:40 No one bats an eye. Children's kids, kids, it's people, it's women, it's children. Nobody says anything. No big deal. Let one stupid white cop kill a black guy. All hell breaks loose. People lose their minds. It's part of their narrative. Right here, Chicago Homicides in 2024, 49 people slain.
Starting point is 01:42:02 Here's how that compares to the previous years. Okay, we can find a. And it's genuine, and it's genuine. But we're in February. You can find a million different articles like this. But black people, you know, love you. That's what you need to be talking about. That's what you need to be talking about. It's so easy to be like, but there's one cop right here,
Starting point is 01:42:16 the George Floyd situation. Now, where am I going with this? You know, I sent you an article, by the way. The biggest victims of terrorism and death and warmongering are Muslims being killed by other Muslims. Here we go. Read the top of the article, Rob. BJs.
Starting point is 01:42:36 Muslims absolutely the group most victimized by global terrorism. Monday's terrorist attack targeting Muslims in London is just one, any one of them. Now when I say terrorism, you tell me what comes to mind. But that's not the narrative. We don't want to talk about Bashar al-Assad killing million of people in Syria. We don't want to talk about the war in Yemen that's been going on for ten years with the Houthi rebels. A decade, all of a sudden Houthi, it's a new term because they're jacking ships in the Red Sea out there. But we've been talking about this for 10 years low-key
Starting point is 01:43:07 You don't want to talk about Boko Haram You don't want to talk about these terrorist organizations But God forbid October 7th shows up and Israel tries to defeat Hamas. It's Israel. It's Israel is the cop and BLM is Hamas. I'll let you do the math from there Pat what do you think? I think the great thing about data is data never lies. You can hate people as much as you want. You can't hate numbers.
Starting point is 01:43:35 Numbers are not going to sit there and be like, well, you know, we think you're an idiot. Numbers don't do that. Numbers just tell you, here's what's going on. Officers were 23. eight percent less likely to shoot at blacks Eight and a half percent less likely to shoot at Hispanics Then they were to shoot at whites. So let me give you visual cop looks. He's white I'm not gonna get arrested bam cop looks. He's black shit. I'm not gonna shoot I get down dude. Just don't make me do this to you get down that's what that means one
Starting point is 01:44:07 and four times he doesn't yeah that's the visual because he's like I'm not gonna lose my job for shooting a white guy but I could lose my job for losing a shooting a black guy in a spanish guy that's what that data gives the visual to a cop who's sitting there thinking about I got two kids at the house a wife in a mortgage payment do you're not gonna do this, okay? Because you could lose the money that you got and you got an argument with your wife, et cetera, et cetera. Numbers don't lie.
Starting point is 01:44:31 And good for him for doing this, and good for Barry Weiss for conducting the interview. Two years after he came up with this report, well he can't go anywhere, he's got a seven day old baby trying to go buy diapers and he has to go with a cop because he's worried something could happen to him. The youngest African American tenure professor at Harvard. What else can you do? In your opinion, in your opinion, he
Starting point is 01:44:54 talked about he couldn't leave his house. Who do you think is going after him? Obviously, but that's what he's saying. How ironic is it that a black professor had to get a cop, probably a white cop, to protect them from other African Americans that want to kill him. Because it might not even be African Americans. You want to see a hypocrite, see it's finest. It might be the whitest of whitest liberals. Maybe your racist.
Starting point is 01:45:15 Yeah. How dare you. That's what it is. I'm not even worried about the black people. No, no, that's what it is. It's the white people. But yeah, look, you know what, you know what? You know what, you know what? You're racist.
Starting point is 01:45:23 You know what ID you just gave me, right? What is that guy? Can you do me a favor, Rob? Pull up the clip by Bill Maher at Tech City this morning. Watch this clip here. This kind of validates what you're talking about. So watch this, here's Bill Maher. This is a week ago, get on and play this, Rob. Now enjoy this fun photo collage
Starting point is 01:45:37 of some of your favorite stars and politicians who speak about the need to reduce our carbon footprint, but who are always on private planes. That's right, all of them. Bernie Sanders. If you don't see a celebrity's picture here, it's because we weren't allowed to use it. Or their series got canceled.
Starting point is 01:46:01 But all the environmentalists of Hollywood and Washington do it. Their position on climate change is, we must do more to stop pouring carbon into the air, except for me when I want to go somewhere and then I take a private jet. Yeah, so that kind of is going back to the liberal white women is like how dare you writer you don't know how blacks been being treated yeah no no no no okay but data is a beautiful please tell me you saw that story at Robbie if you can pull this up I'll give you major points it was a white guy the most liberal white guy in the world on a job interview on a zoom you see this please and he was
Starting point is 01:46:43 being interviewed by a Latin guy a black lady they're interview on a zoom. Did you see this? Oh, please go. And he was being interviewed by a Latin guy, a black lady, they're all in a zoom interviewing this person. And he says, you have to find this Rob. He says, what do you guys do as a company for Black History Month? And they're like, well, you know, it's Black History Month. It's our, I don't know if it's happy
Starting point is 01:47:05 like history. Who's he starts grilling the guy? Who's your favorite black inventor? Who's your favorite black scientist? The guy's like, what are you, what are you doing right now? Okay. You're on a job interview and you're grilling me. He's like, I won't work for a company that does, you can't even name a black scientist to a Latin guy in a black lady. And the black ladies just keep giving him like, like, oh my God, Rob, I don't know if you can find this guy. It's like, if you can put up like the interview, we, and then, and then the guy goes, uh, guy, I don't know if you know how job interviews work, but you're not grilling us.
Starting point is 01:47:45 Holy shit. This isn't helping you get the job. It's either on TikTok or Instagram. That's hilarious. So does he get the job? But it was a white guy basically trying to use his white guilt and white shame to indoctrinate this company to his beliefs of what they think they should do for black history. I'm sure Tom you want to add something to this, but I tell you one thing, Rob, for me,
Starting point is 01:48:05 I prefer this job interview video. This is the one I prefer that I think is way more educational. And this thing's got 27 million views. And this is how you should do job interviews. If you can find this, Rob, and pull this up, I think it's always good. They say it's healthy for us to laugh a little bit So this is a this is a you can pull this up just you got to show this you guys have this this is how
Starting point is 01:48:33 If I was 14 years old today and YouTube is like I'm we're growing up when we're 14 years old I would I would do something like this. You have to see this job interview this guy's got to get some kind of credit for keeping a straight face and Go ahead Rob This is what she is I don't usually mind overtime. It's like Oh, no, I'm not I'm parked up now coffee next to Thomas today. May I have a fish sandwich please? No, really, watch.
Starting point is 01:49:10 Are you available to work weekends? Yes. Fish sandwich? Saturday and Sunday? Just one fish sandwich, that'll be all. $4.80 please, thank you. Thank you. Saturday and Sunday is perfect. Killing it
Starting point is 01:49:30 No, no, I'm not I'm I'm I just I'm parked up. I'm in my car right now No, no, I'm not ordering anything if I was I'd be a Popeyes because but If I was I already ordered it by I didn't I he's hilarious Yes, do you have any questions for me? Yes. Do you have any ketchup? I mean, like, how do you do it? You can stop it. I mean, this is the best one. Well, that is so... No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:50:10 By the way, he's got a bunch of these that he does. He literally, his entire spoof is, go on to a job interview. And if he was all messed up with you, you were fucking upset. That is so brilliant. Any questions? Yeah, ketchup? Yeah. And it was okay. The top the the parting shot here My is Bill Maher is correct and the father of all this hypocrisy was a guy that wrote a book called
Starting point is 01:50:33 You know an infected tooth. No, no, no It was an inconvenient truth and it was Al Gore who at the time was flying at taxpayer expense on a Gore, who at the time was flying at taxpayer expense on a 707, the single most polluting private jet you could buy, buy statistically it was that. It was the single most polluting. It was the old 707 that he flew on. That was there. And then you find people like Lewis Hamilton and Rob, you could find Lewis Hamilton sells private jet. And Lewis Lewis said I'm gonna
Starting point is 01:51:06 be serious about my carbon footprint. I'm selling my private jet and yep you know I will fly in you know he's flying in elite class on Emirates air and things like that but he's like that's a smaller carbon footprint. There it is there's the red one. He had spent like three years decking this out. Look at that jet that's a nice carbon footprint. There it is. There's the red one. He had spent like three years decking this out. Look at that jet. That's a nice jet, Pat. He had spent all this time decking it. Is he selling it? No, he sold it. It's gone. Who bought it? I don't know who bought it, but Lewis Hamilton sold it. The Al Gore looks like cool. No, no. The point is Lewis Hamilton said, look, my carbon footprint will be less on commercial. Yes, I'm going to fly elite class on Emirates and things like that, but my carbon footprint
Starting point is 01:51:44 is lower and that's how I'm gonna do it. And so that is an example of a celebrity that actually did what they said versus the guy that wrote the book who was flying in the most polluting jet in the sky. Meanwhile, this is what happened when Bill Maher and I talked about climate change, which was fantastic.
Starting point is 01:51:58 Oh, this is my favorite. Concerned about global warming. No, that's some music. Music, is that music in the brain? That's okay. Okay, we do, okay, we don't want to refresh it refresh it sleep over every night. I heard music. I'm like that's not be good Go for it wrong Warming or is it a hoax in your world? I don't know sleep over it every night. You what I lose sleep over every night The warming I don't know whether you're being facetious. Oh my God, I shiver every night when I go to sleep. Are you global warming?
Starting point is 01:52:29 I assume you're being sarcastic. That would be very serious. Why would I be sarcastic? I mean global warming is the number one issue in the world. Good, do you agree with that? I do. Tell me why. See, I think you do.
Starting point is 01:52:42 I do. I do. Trolling is better. What a moment. What a moment. What a moment. Tell me why. See, I think you do. Ha ha, someone did a compendium of all the climate studies. So um. Oh shit, what was your question? He's so hot. He's so hot. He's so close to the drop.
Starting point is 01:53:18 Yeah, he's so hot. Very good. You can stop it. Anyway, so that was interesting. Let's go to the next story. I know this is a story that Adam's been excited about talking to you guys Putin's network rivals Elon Musk, but Cobweb of bank accounts assets heights his full value
Starting point is 01:53:35 Experts say and guess who wrote the story Fox business All right, so let's go through it. Here we go experts suggest putans network rivals top business man Elon Musk hitting behind a cobweb of secrets and offshore deals would estimate a range in between 70 billion to 200 billion dollars according to Rebecca coffer putans rise to wealth involved gaining support from oligarchs through a coercive tactics a crewing significant earnings and assets including luxurious items like mega yachts and black sea palaces while official disclosures site modest income and living standards time reported the Kremlin's protection known as Krisha shields businessmen who comply with kickbacks contributing
Starting point is 01:54:19 to a complex scheme of wealth redistribution and, what is that word? Obfuscation. Obfuscation. Obfuscation. Blocking. Exemplified by close ally, Yuri Kovachuk's role in managing Putin's expensive forest compound in Karelia, according to East to West, Adam.
Starting point is 01:54:40 Well, so the title of the article is Putin's net worth rivals Elon Musk. Let me show you what a builder and creator is versus an absolute thief so Elon Musk has built company after company. He's right now between tide between first and second richest man in the world him and our friend from LVMH Bernardo, I'll know LVMH Louis Vuitton, Moet Hennessy. But the reason that Elon's Musk wealth is so great is because he has equity in massive
Starting point is 01:55:11 companies, namely Tesla, which is part of the magnificent seven. We just talked about that as well as building all the other companies that we talked about neuro link, SpaceX, the boring company, obviously Tesla, Twitter, we'll see what happens with that. But you're looking at, so this is the definition of communism. This is someone who has built nothing. You know, the running joke about Russia is that it's a gas station with nuclear weapons or a gas station that's parading around as a country. So we talk about autocrats and oligarchies, but what Putin is, is a kleptomaniac, a kleptocracy, a kleptocracy. So what's the definition of a klepto?
Starting point is 01:55:56 It's the inability to resist the urge to steal. Kleptocracy is also called as a thivocracy. They steal money from their country And they they line their own pockets. They steal money. They still land Putin specifically They steal wealth from their people and they'll steal your life if you say anything otherwise and that's who Putin is and Yeah, there it is right there kleptptocracy, the Greek word of thief, is also referred to as Thiebocracy is a government whose corrupt leaders,
Starting point is 01:56:30 kleptocrats use political power to expropriate the wealth of the people and the land they govern, typically by, you know, force is probably what it says there. Like Nancy Pelosi, basically. So they're taking money from the, okay, got you. Go ahead. Yeah. Um, this is what communists, dictators do. They build nothing. They just, um, distribution of wealth and they steal it all and they line their own pockets. You know, I got stopped. There's a story for you. When I was in college, I was broke as shit and I went to Publix, which is a grocery store down here in Florida, and I walked, forgot to pay for a public sub, a $7 sub. And the cop stopped me and he said,
Starting point is 01:57:14 you're gonna pay for that, buddy? And I was like, oh, my bad, I totally forgot, my bad. But the reality is, is I tried to steal a stupid subway Public sub and I got caught and I got slapped on the wrist. The problem is if you don't ever get caught Nobody holds you to account and you don't get Hold accountable for your actions. You keep stealing. There was a famous football player Math out what was his name? Tyrone he he was on Heisman.
Starting point is 01:57:46 The Hawaiian guy? Yeah. He was called the Honey Badger. Yeah. Yeah. It's called the Honey Badger. Mateo. Pull up the Honey Badger. I think it's Mateo. Tyrone Math. He was drafted in Arizona. Mateo. I'm in a school. His girlfriend died. Yeah, Tyrone Matthew. Yeah, exactly. My bad. I thought I was thinking about it. So no, no, no. This is not him. You're not. This is not him. No, that's him. That not him. You're not this is not that's him That's him his girlfriend. What this you got troll you're bringing a different story. This is what I'm talking about
Starting point is 01:58:09 Is it's what they called him the honey badger? Yes, and then what they would say is the honey badger is one of the more Feast fiercest animals this guy in the world exactly. That's him. He played for LSU He's me don't give a shit honey badger. I'm gonna say that the honey badger takes what he wants Yeah, and that's why he's such a badass animal out there in the wild the honey badger takes what he wants. And that's why he's such a badass animal out there in the wild. The honey badger takes what he wants. The thing with Putin, except when he plays against Brady, but go ahead. That's right. You beat him.
Starting point is 01:58:32 I'm by just as a story. Brady went to him right after him and talking trash in his ears. You've never seen that. He's America. Yeah, keep going. The honey badger is Putin. The problem with Putin is that he takes what he wants. He jails dissidents. He'll kill you if you say anything otherwise, and he's lined his pockets to the tune of $200 billion, and that's a low amount. Elon Musk has built companies, has become one of the biggest, greatest minds of the world. Putin is an absolute thug. So is it shocking to hear that he's richer or as rich as Elon Musk? And this is right there.
Starting point is 01:59:08 Um, no, because he takes what he wants. So unless you get stopped like me, leaving Publix with a sub, unless you hold someone to account, they'll just keep taking what they want. And I said this last time, congratulations, Russia, two years in a row. Number one, most corrupt country in the world. You're killing it. You're, you're, you're a leader. Vladimir Putin. We're $200 billion. My boy, my boy. That's your guy. I know it. It's my guy. It's my guy. Unless we hold him to account, he'll keep stealing and he'll
Starting point is 01:59:36 keep thieving in this kleptomaniac autocracy that's called Russia. Keep in mind one thing, the president of Russia pulled this up, Rob in mind one thing, the president of Russia pulled this up Rob, pulled up salary. The president of Russia makes about $135,000 a year. In America it's 400,000, you know, right it was right there. $120,000 per annual, not in rubles. How is someone that makes that amount of money worth 200 billion?
Starting point is 02:00:02 I love that you're bringing this up. So this leads me to one thing. If this is what you really believe about, that people who do this, then in 2024 on November 15th, you're only voting for one person. Because that one person is not using the government's money to run. That one person uses his own money to run.
Starting point is 02:00:23 RFK you're talking about? Not RFK. That guy's using- Nikki? No, guy's using Nicky no so you know who you know so meanwhile if you want to find that net worths before and after Rob if you want to pull up you know Obama's I don't know Clintons and Biden's net worth before and after or polos if you can do this this will be a great exercise for Adam, because I like where Adam's going with it. Any of them are billionaires, I'd be shocked. But 200 billion, richest man in the world.
Starting point is 02:00:52 Yeah, he's the one right there. Zoom in, zoom in on one right there. So that's pretty interesting. So Trump's network before running, four and a half billion, now it's two billion. Obama's three million, now 40 million. Clinton's 500,000, now 100 million. And then you got Biden's is on that list as well.
Starting point is 02:01:10 So you know, you're kind of interesting the angle and direction you're taking. I didn't think you were gonna be this bold this morning with the story, specifically the fact that it impacts America and the difference between us and them is you're right, in a communist nation, you can steal more and get away with it because there is less regulation.
Starting point is 02:01:27 In a country like ours that there's more regulation, you have to be more deceptive and conniving and more slick to be able to steal money. And you got to give respect if you're saying your value and the fact that you don't like people going into politics and then all of a sudden becoming rich and having houses in Hawaii and you know paddle boarding, you take a day off, you don't like people going into politics and then all of a sudden becoming rich and having houses in Hawaii and you know paddleboarding you take a day off you don't take a day off and you know stuff like that. Yeah. I mean that's a that's a very very good political point you just made right there. You bring up a great point. Yeah. And I as someone that minored and double majored in sarcasm I see what you're doing. I respect you. There is a big difference between and not that I'm advocating there's a big difference between 40 million a hundred million and
Starting point is 02:02:09 200 billion dollars When you difference because here's the real difference homeboy the difference is that's a Guestimated the difference here is this is audited So do you question this guest? I I This is audited. So, do you question this guesstimation? I, I, I, of course I question, of course I question the guesstimation. Will I say he's worth a couple billion dollars? Yes.
Starting point is 02:02:35 Would I say he has used the power that he has to take money away XYZ? Yes. But you know what else that does? If you're going to go there? No problem. What I say, no one's increased their net worth more because this person's learned his habits from Putin. You know who's probably gone the richest if that guesstimation applies to people
Starting point is 02:02:56 that steal money from their government and nobody catches them? There's this guy down the street from Russia, okay? They're like a block away from each other. What's this guy's name? Zelinsky. Oh, the guy at the green a block away from each other. What's this guy's name? Zelinsky. Oh, the guy at the green shirts. So you know what?
Starting point is 02:03:07 The Zelinsky guy has probably increased his network the most the last two years, Adam, if that's correct. And I think probably maybe Putin behind closed doors angry because Zelinsky is getting richer than him because there is no way in the history of mankind we've had a better becker, a better fundraiser, a better guy that goes around and raising money and pleading and crying and all this stuff. And then somehow, some way he's getting richer and doing commercials with clothes that cost three, four, five, $10,000 with him and his beautiful wife.
Starting point is 02:03:37 This might get uncomfortable. Here we go. If you were the president of Ukraine. Your name was PBD Zelensky. Okay. And you were invaded by this thug called Vladimir Putin. What would you do? What do you mean? Would you not go beg, plead, borrow money? Would you not appeal to NATO when you're European allies? Would you not try to go and basically market yourself to the world as help me out here?
Starting point is 02:04:03 I've been invaded. You just, you just. What would you do? You just changed the story. I'm asking you a question. No, no, you're changing the story. Okay. What I'm saying to you is, one could make the argument for Zelinski also being
Starting point is 02:04:14 one of the richest people in the world who steal in money and that's speculation. What Fox is also doing is they're speculating. By the way, a speculation that the world probably believes in. No one's questioning that. But the difference is, we don't have law and order in Russia the way we have law and order in America, which is why we like law and order. But for you to believe that if the law and order and the ability and the control was available to the
Starting point is 02:04:39 Clintons and Obamas and others to create that kind of wealth, they're probably going to sleep at night envious that they can't steal that kind of money and use their politics to make a lot of money for themselves. I'll do respect my CEO, my friend, Patrick, but David, this has nothing to do with the Clintons and Obama's and we can talk about that. But it does. No, no, it doesn't. And I believe they should be held to account, but they're not going to never going to.
Starting point is 02:04:59 They're not going to. Okay. Okay. Can we, so everyone wants to, Tom wants to be all pissy pants over here because I'm talking about Vladimir Putin. Tom's been quiet for a while. Good, that's why we're doing well today. Now the, Tom, relax, we're joking here guys. You know what dude, sometimes you're like France.
Starting point is 02:05:16 You're like France, you're a member of NATO, but you're a pain in the ass to everybody else. Good one, Tom, no one understood that one. But here's my question. Can everyone be wrong, but can Putin be way more wrong? So here's a question before you answer that. Whatever. Listen, this guy's a former KGB member. I don't know how many times I have to tell you he's a gangster. You know what gangsters do? They do gangsters stuff. Rico, but then Rico laws don't apply to politicians. Do you not understand that?
Starting point is 02:05:48 Do you not understand that the way to go into you start off and you say I want to make a lot of money? If you start off and you say I wanted to make a lot of money or you want to have a lot of power If you want to make a lot of money you go into business You have to bust your ass build equity work your ass up for a couple decades, and then you're gonna have some money, you go into business, you have to bust your ass, build equity, work your ass up for a couple of decades, and then you're going to have some money, right? But if you go in politics, how do you make money in politics? How do you actually make money in politics? Crony capitalism, lobbyists, it's shady business. I agree.
Starting point is 02:06:16 Which means the part that I'm agreeing with you is anybody who has been a lifelong member of politics, 20 years, 30 years, 40 years, and they get rich, they're stealing from you, period. Anybody that all of a sudden creates that kind of wealth, that's what they're doing. By the way, do you know who invested in NVIDIA right before? Can you type in NVIDIA and type in Pelosi? You ever heard of these people called Pelosi and NVIDIA? Nancy?
Starting point is 02:06:43 If you type in NVIDIA and you type in Pelosi, OK? Oh, there she is. Deceptive type. Where am I? Nancy put this is a month ago. Nancy Pelosi disclosed a seven figure bet on Nvidia over the Christmas holiday despite recent efforts to permanently ban lawmakers from trading stocks.
Starting point is 02:06:58 What a great timing, Nancy Pelosi. The point is, he's doing it at much higher levels than others You know why though one reason one reason law and order because he can't and guess who else doesn't have law and order Ukraine because he can guess who else doesn't have law and order China because they can guess who else doesn't have law and order Iran You know what commonays are worth type in common aomeini is a very traditional American last name, Rob. So you should know how to spell it. Khomeini starts with K-H. Khomeini network. Khomeini network, family net worth.
Starting point is 02:07:35 Okay, if you type in Khomeini. Who's that fisherman? Rob, I can't believe you can't spell Khomeini. Right there. Go right there. No, no, no, no. Second one, Rob. Just go to the second one. U.S. claims Khaminé controls wealth over what? $200 billion. They're richer than Putin. What's the point here? These stories, this is five years ago.
Starting point is 02:07:53 These guys were worth $200 billion five years ago. They probably worth $600 billion today, $400 billion today. These are not new stories. Politicians in countries that lack law and order become richer than politicians in countries that there's law and order. But regardless, the people that create money through getting into politics that there's law and order,
Starting point is 02:08:14 if they were in these types of countries, they would have also taken $200 billion. The profile of somebody that can make $50 million of politics in one country doesn't make them less innocent than somebody else that makes $200 billion because they have better laws to corrupt the nation. That applies all across. That's all I'm saying to you.
Starting point is 02:08:32 I'm not saying this, this is a, you know, I'm defending a guy or not defending a guy. I've always said when I asked Sammy de Boca Ramos and what's his name? Sammy de Boca and Michael Francis. When I rented that house and we did the three day 24 hour interview with those guys. You know what question I asked them? I gave him names. Tell me which one of these guys would have made the best mafia boss.
Starting point is 02:08:52 I mentioned a lot of different names. You know what's one of the names I mentioned? Hillary Clinton, because she walks around like a boss. Putin's a boss. These certain people are bosses, okay? You got them on all sides. And she's only envious that the regulation here doesn't allow her to make this kind of money,
Starting point is 02:09:09 because she would definitely take advantage. I've got four more stories I wanna do in 40 minutes, and then I wanna wrap up. Okay, so here we go. Number one, Tom, this one's coming to you, and I just wanna get Tom's reaction, and then we'll go to the last three, we'll get everyone's reaction.
Starting point is 02:09:20 Tom, gig workers pay on delivery apps like Uber Eats and DoorDash fell 15%. Meanwhile, DoorDash says data shows Seattle Pay rules have caused unprecedented drop in business. What is going on with DoorDash and these people that are delivering food, Uber Eats, what's causing them to make less money? Well, guess what? Consumers, DoorDash, what is DoorDash? You pay the price that you would get at the restaurant and then there is a delivery charge on top of it and a service fee. So when you order something on DoorDash,
Starting point is 02:09:50 it is a, you know, it could be, I think we've all done that. It's like two burgers that would be like 20 bucks or something all in with a tip and everything at a restaurant. Suddenly you see it's like 30 bucks when DoorDash delivers it. So what has happened is when municipalities regulate and say, oh, 1099 workers, no, no, no, no, no, they need to be employees and they need to make this much an hour and oh, no, no, no, no, this has to be in here. You're interfering with businesses right to freely conduct themselves. Instead you're putting regulations on the business. And guess what happened, Pat? The food was even more expensive. So you know what people did?
Starting point is 02:10:29 What's that? Maybe I won't order from DoorDash. It just seems like it's more expensive than it should be. Maybe we'll just go order it in advance on the app and then we'll go pick it up right there at the restaurant. That is what's happening. Usage of DoorDash in cities where the cities have tried to regulate workers and other things have caused stuff. Order of DoorDash in cities where the cities have tried to regulate workers and other things have caused stuff, order from DoorDash to be more expensive and so the consumers voting for their wallet and saying, you know what, that's more expensive and then the headline doesn't come out. Our regulations made food more expensive and people didn't
Starting point is 02:10:59 order it. The regulations comes out as drivers are earning less. Why are they earning less? Because the government interfered with it. And guess what? It hurt the business and they weren't able to make as much. I mean, that's the direct correlation, right? So when this lady in California says she wants to raise a minimum wage to $50. Exhibit A. Do you know what that would do to the businesses and surrounding areas
Starting point is 02:11:21 and who that would impact the most? It would be absolutely insane. Okay, so next story I want to get to is the story about voting. Check this out, folks. You'll soon need a driver's license or passport. Vinny, I'm coming to you with this one. You'll soon need a driver's license or passport to get a blue check mark on Tinder. This is blaspheme.
Starting point is 02:11:44 You want me to get an ID or password to get a check mark on Tinder? I mean, I understand if you do that with voting, but why would you do that with Tinder? What's more important, right? So here we go. Tinder announced it's expanding its verification commerce to make sure users share a video selfie and photo ID to get a specific verification badge. Given each market is different and is nuanced and we are expanding country by country and will ID to get a specific verification badge, given each market is different and in its nuance and we are expanding country by country and will continue to learn and enhance the feature as we roll it out to more users. Walling said that Tinder is working with a third party vendor to verify users date of
Starting point is 02:12:18 birth and double check their submitted selfies and IDs. It'll help give users additional peace of mind when connecting with others who are both photo and ID verified in addition to photo and ID verification tools. Tinder has also invested in detection tools that remove spam immediately as signups or before the count is seen by other users. Vinny, thoughts on this story? And again, from the lady, the Kelly Wong from San Francisco who's not a citizen that's overlooking the voting, Tinder has more integrity than our United States voting. Dude, think about that. Okay.
Starting point is 02:12:54 It's a similarity with Tinder and the voting in the U S and this is the similarity Tom. Tinder makes you provide a photo ID in the hopes of you getting laid. Okay. But when it comes to our voting, you don't need ID. And the result is you get screwed by the people in power. So you're getting F in one and you're getting F in the other. It's unbelievable that an app that's basically there, Tinder's for hooking up.
Starting point is 02:13:16 I don't know. You're saying C-Span is a porn channel. Exactly what I'm trying to make. But think about the fact that this app that's just literally trying to get you laid wants to make sure your identity is is verified To make you send the photo Tom and I guess the users I don't know if you did you see this it launched in 2012 Tinder has been downloaded over 530 million times okay more than half of the users are 18 to 25 years old Why can't why can't we adopt that for voting?
Starting point is 02:13:47 You know why, Tom? Because when it comes to voting, it's racist. Did you know that? Oh, absolutely. Tom, Tom, how do you process this? Yeah, it's weird. How do you process this? Tender versus 30 seconds.
Starting point is 02:13:58 How do you process this? That's six seconds. Say what you will about Tinder, whether you don't have to like or not like Tinder as a business. They're trying to do things to protect their customers and to stay in business. You may not like what they're doing in business, but they're trying to stay in business and protect their customers.
Starting point is 02:14:15 Period. Adam, thoughts on this one? Look, you know, this whole conversation about ID. Well, by the way, not that I know this, but Grindr, no ID needed. Really? A friend told me that. A friend told me that. Out of the closet.
Starting point is 02:14:30 Finally, the truth. Well, when I was briefly married to a woman, by the way, with a girl, remember that movie, you had to give an ID to get married. You have to, here's a list of the things that need an ID. Speaking of racism, well, we all know that you need it to buy alcohol, buy cigarettes, to open up a bank account. You need an ID to buy a house, to rent a house, anything with that. But here's where it gets a little race baby.
Starting point is 02:15:00 Unemployment, you need ID to collect unemployment, to apply for unemployment. You need it for Medicaid or Medicare. You need this in America. You need it for food stamps. Yep. ID. You need it for welfare. So if the poorest of the poor, welfare, unemployed, great point, Medicaid, welfare, the welfare state in America, if you need an ID for that don't tell me that it's racist to ask for an ID to vote except for if you're in San Francisco you could be a non citizen you can run the whole county close your eyes and just put anybody there you go. Okay. Now next one here is a little weird story but I think we need to cover it. So team for fits after girls basketball player allegedly hurt and play with
Starting point is 02:15:49 male who identifies as female. Rob, if you can please find this video. I mean, it's just every story gets crazy. This is a real story. We're not talking about a ghetto story. So here we go. A girls high school basketball team team forfeited a game after three players were injured, allegedly due to play involved in a six foot male player who identifies as female prompting concerns about fairness and safety. According to coach Kevin Ortons,
Starting point is 02:16:15 the decision to end the game was made as his team's roster was depleted. Just days before playoff match, the player in question reportedly with facial hair, face severe backlash, including death threats threats resulting in the cancellation of a subsequent game against lin tech rob if you can pull up this clip watch this here folks watch this here go ahead jeez look at that dude what a lazy asshole sorry look at it like it's a dude. He's trying to be like hey, let me help you up Bro like dude if I was her father
Starting point is 02:16:52 But if I was right, I would whoop that dude's ass if that was my freaking daughter and again That's a guy who's they got the pony. They got the pony. I'll ask five seconds of again. It's a white boy Oh, he is what do you mean? Yes of again. It's a white way. All he is. What do you mean? Yes facial hair It's a guy. It just it just further proves as long as you have a man bun You can identify as any yeah, but look at look guys look how tall he is like what would you say Adam? Look at the girls the girls are probably what five five five four look up dude He's a head and shoulder above these like what the hell are we even talking about bro? It's a man playing with women That goes up to the leadership.
Starting point is 02:17:26 Like, what are you guys, not Tom? If that was your daughter, what are you doing? I'm being that serious. If you walked on and you saw that happen. By the way, parents sitting on the sideline on this one, fearful. They were in the principal's office. They were with the athletic director later.
Starting point is 02:17:39 And they were in full flip out mode, which is exactly where I would have been. You know, I wouldn't have been, you know where I wouldn't have been? I wouldn't have been after the player on the court. I would have gone to the athletic director of that school and I would have been in his grill. Saying, what the flip are you doing here?
Starting point is 02:17:55 You're cowtowing to this trans thing that this kid can identify as a woman or you're putting other students at risk. I'd be going after the athletic director of the other school that was letting it happen. And look at this, even the other athletic director was a little nervous about it. Hey, we don't want to make a comment. We're just going to forfeit and move on because they don't want it. But guess what? It's heating up and all you need is videos like this, videos of the six, nine months ago,
Starting point is 02:18:23 the volleyball spike that knocked the girl out, all you need is this to see that there is a truth here. And the truth here is that we're living in bizarro world, it's a complete farce, and fortunately, fortunately, slowly but surely, people are coming to their senses, it just can't happen soon. Tom, you're a bigger man than me,
Starting point is 02:18:42 because if that was my daughter, I would have ran on that court and kicked that girl right in her nuts. That's what I would have done to kick that girl right. Right. Her nuts with her ponytail. Are you not here? I mean, we could show videos after I've said this before and I said it again. It's all fun and games until it's a one on one combat sport. It's a, you saw like boxing made some adjustments of like what the rules are for a biological man who transitions to be able
Starting point is 02:19:05 to fight in USA boxing these days. There's some qualifications there, but it's, it's going to get really ugly when you're talking UFC boxing, wrestling. Here's the state right there. Policy states that minors under the age of 18 must compete as their birth gender and weight classes. This is what Rob. It's from January of this year. Okay. But this is not USA. Oh, USA Boxing updates rule book. Okay, guys, that's what it is. So there's rules in place like this. But you know, speaking of basketball here as of January of 24, Adam, to give that
Starting point is 02:19:33 credit, that rule was revised January 24 to the credit of USA Boxing who said, wait a minute, we got to get it right. Yeah. And you know, look, this has arguably been one of the biggest weeks in female basketball history. Not that I'm a huge NBA fan and you know, we subsidized the WNBA speaking on behalf of NBA fans right now, but the WNBA is had a great week. Caitlin Clark who was placed for Iowa just became the leading scorer of all time. Female scorer Iowa pull her up. She's incredible. I mean, this girl is the next female Steph Curry. Speaking of female Steph Curry during the all-star game past week, Steph Curry competed against the greatest shooter in the WNBA, Sabrina Anescu, who almost beat Steph Curry. She's incredible. But meanwhile, the women play with the women, the men play with the men. Meanwhile, you got jerk, No Novitsky out here with a ponytail and a beard pretending to be a fucking woman. Like the fathers, the
Starting point is 02:20:34 mothers, the people have to step up and say this enough's enough. You got that. That's later. Rob, check your slack. But, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, But did you have you guys see did you guys see Brittany Griner who listened to me?
