View segment →Hey everybody, this is the place to be. The place where all the simultaneous sipping originated. Yeah, it's a big phenomenon around the world. I know you're hearing about it everywhere, but this is where it started and it's the best thing that ever happened in the history of civilization. It's called the simultaneous sip.
What do you need to contribute? Not a lot. All you need is a cup or mug or glass or tankard, your telescope, canteen, drug flask, vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit, let's say. The thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip and it's happening now. Go.
Somebody says my racing stripes make me look fast. I think that's true. I think it also makes me look like if I cover up the bottom parts it looks like I'm some kind of military general. All right, that doesn't work.
Let's talk about all of the news. Mike Lindell of MyPillow fame is countersuing Dominion, the election software company. Now as you know, Dominion is suing Mike Lindell for claiming that their machines had any issues in the election. Mike Lindell is suing them back now. And it says here in the report I saw that Alan Dershowitz has joined the legal team. So Alan Dershowitz is on Mike Lindell's legal team.
How would you like to be Dominion software or Dominion, whatever the name is called? How would you like to be Dominion and find out that the guy you're countersuing, the guy you're suing is countersuing and he just got Alan Dershowitz on his team? How do you feel about that? I don't think anybody ever had worse news.
Dominion, we've got some bad news and some worse news. What's the bad news? Well, you're probably going to lose billions in revenue because Mike Lindell, the pillow guy, is going to tear you apart in public. Well, that's bad. That's really bad. What's the worst news? When he countersues you he's going to have Alan Dershowitz on his team. It's a little worse. It's a little worse.
Now of course people are assuming that the real play here, because Mike Lindell said it directly, is that if he gets sued then he can, he has the right to dig into some of their details, their operation. So he has the right of discovery. He can ask questions and they have to answer them. And the thinking is that if they do have anything to hide or anything that they might just not want anybody to know, it doesn't have to be a crime, just something they don't want people to know, that they'll probably back down.
So if you had to predict where this goes, my guess is that Lindell will ask for information that Dominion doesn't want to give them and that will be the end of it. Because if they don't provide it they're either going to have to drop the lawsuit or provide it. Those are the two choices. And I don't see how they could possibly provide everything that Dershowitz and Lindell and the team are going to ask for. Because you know that Dershowitz and his lawyers are going to be smart enough to know to ask for things that they won't give them. But that's the end of it. Am I wrong?
Let me tell you a story about a lawsuit I was involved with some years ago in which I can't give you the details because the part of the court settlement is you agree not to talk about the details. So I'll say there's a very large entity, a really large company, that once sued me. And I said quite reasonably, oh well if you have a claim that something bad happened because of, it was one of my businesses, my restaurant, if you have a claim that's based on my restaurant just show us what the evidence is and just show us the evidence and we'll take that under consideration. And they wouldn't. They said no, our contract states that we don't have to send you or show you evidence. We can just claim that you did something bad and then start draining your bank account.
And I thought, well there's no way my contract says that. But it did. The contract actually said they could drain your bank account just because they said they had a reason. They don't have to show you the evidence. So they sue me and I decided to take it to court. It would have been easy to settle. I could have just paid the $90,000 or whatever it was that they were trying to get from me. So I could have settled. But it kind of made me mad because there was no evidence of anything. Their claim, they didn't show us any evidence.
And I correctly estimated that if I took it to court, which I did, or at least I took it to negotiations, it didn't actually make it to court, I correctly assumed that if I said yeah let's go to court and you're going to have to show me the evidence that shows what the problem is here, that they would drop it. And they did. So the moment I threatened I'll show you mine if you show me yours it was over. That was it. And I correctly estimated that that would be the outcome.
Now I'm no lawyer but I live in the real world and I do know that real people like to hide their secrets and if those are in play they're going to change their mind. So there's that. We'll watch that.
There's also a related story, sort of related. Let's see if I can find this. About, is it Michigan? Where the courts have decided that Michigan did not handle the election correctly and that their changes to the voter, the mail-in votes were illegal. Were illegal. Now that won't change any of the outcome, right, because Biden's the president. That's not going to change. But every day that goes by we're going to find out a little bit more about what happened in the past.
And I'm going to say something that will probably get me kicked off of all social media, I don't know, but I'm going to try it out. So here will be an edge case. I predict now, let me say it as clearly as possible so I want to say this in a way that there's no falsehoods. But I'll probably also get kicked off of social media. So I'm not going to say anything that is false, okay?
First true statement: Biden is president. The system elected him. He's been certified. He's president. That's it. Biden won the presidency in 2020.
Now here's my prediction. Now the prediction is not based on any false claims, right? So there will be no allegation of any claims. It's just a prediction that we will someday learn that Trump won the election at least in terms of the votes or somewhat similarly that the election was not what we thought it was, which ends up being the same. You don't know who won.
So I'm sure I would get kicked off of social media if I said I know this to be true. But I don't. I'm simply sticking with my prediction that if you wait long enough, and it could be 10 years, right, it could be 10 years, that somebody will come forward sometime in the next 10 years and say you know here's something you didn't know.
So when I was talking about the accuracy of my predictions I was noting that how accurate my predictions are depends how long you wait. If you don't wait very long they don't look so good but if you keep waiting they might look better.
So here's the question. Can I say something that's a pure opinion while also saying it's not backed by a specific fact but it is the accumulated instinct? That's the wrong word but getting close to it. It's sort of the accumulated instinct of life. Meaning that sometimes you can smell things before you can see them. And I think a lot of people have the same feeling that I smell something with this election but I can't see it. So we'll see.
Take for example just the Michigan story. I'm not sure I have all the facts of that right. But if it turned out that just the Michigan story stands and the Michigan story is that there was something illegal happened in the state. Now again it doesn't matter to the outcome. The outcome is done, right? Biden is president. Nothing's going to change that except his health I suppose. But won't history record that the vote in Michigan was not the way it should have gone if everything had been done legally? That's just a true statement, right? Is there any doubt about the statement I just made?
History will record based on what we know now because the court has actually ruled that what was done there was not legally copacetic. So we now have Michigan that's put into the unknown category. Unknown what would have happened if they had handled everything the way the courts say they should have. That's one.
Now what will happen in Georgia if we continue waiting and the chain of custody information never comes forward? Because that's the situation now. So there are these documents that show where the ballots were and who controlled them. So you have this chain of custody. So that's been asked for but they're not providing it now. It's been a few weeks. What if it's never provided? How will history judge the Georgia outcome if they don't provide the most basic visibility that you would have, which is the chain of custody?
Well I think that takes Georgia and moves it into the maybe box. Again the election's over. Biden's president. Nothing's going to change it. But I think Michigan and Georgia just got moved into the maybe category.
Now we've got this Mike Lindell thing. What's going to happen when Mike Lindell asks for discovery and transparency and probably even the source code, right? Don't you think Mike Lindell will be able to ask for the source code? How the hell are they going to give them the source code? I mean really. No company gives you the source code. You have to assume it's proprietary at some level, right?
So I think we're going to move into a point where we went from those voting machines were absolutely definitely fine according to the official statement about it. No evidence of any fraud. I don't believe that.
Here's my prediction. I don't believe Mike Lindell will produce any evidence of fraud by Dominion. All right, hear that as clearly as possible. I predict he won't find any evidence of fraud from Dominion because the discovery will not go that far. There's no way that they can open their kimono and show them everything that he's going to ask for. They have to settle. They have to.
And I think this is probably why Dershowitz is on the case. This is just a guess, right? I shouldn't speculate about what Dershowitz would do because he's operating at a different level than I am. But I feel as though he probably sees what I see and lots more of course. I think he sees what I see that there's no way that Dominion can actually press this case because they can't open the kimono. They can't show you the source code.
And if they don't, if they don't, what are you going to do with Dominion? You're going to move it into the maybe category. So in mere months it looks like Michigan, maybe Georgia, and maybe the Dominion system will have been moved from these are definitely okay to we got big questions. And one of them definitely would have been different. Michigan we don't know different in what way but different. And two of the other ones are in the maybe category.
So that's going to happen within a year. So within a year we're going to go from definitely we had an election we can trust to well there's no way to know. What happens in 10 years, right? I'm going to keep my prediction. In 10 years history will by consensus agree that Trump won the election in 2020.
Now if you never see me again on social media because I think that's the rule now, right? Simply saying what I just said should get me kicked off of social media shouldn't it? Those are the rules. But I haven't said anything fraudulent and you need people like me to press the boundary here, right? So every time somebody gets taken down for their anti-wokeness everything's just going to keep going that way until somebody pushes back.
So in some ways, in some ways I'm giving you an edge case intentionally. I'm pushing the boundary beyond where I know the boundary wants to be. I'm just pushing it back a little bit. That's all. So you may never see me again.
There's a story about some tragedy. I guess a couple of Atlanta massage parlors. Some guy with a gun came in and shot a bunch of people, two different massage parlors. And of course it's being reported as anti-Asian American violence. But where in the story is evidence to support the claims that this might have to do with a racial motive? Right, there's no evidence of a racial motive and yet that's the lead story. Why would you put a racial story into a story that doesn't have any indication?
Now it might end up that that's exactly what it was in which case you know that adds a horror on top of a horror. But this whole anti-Asian American violence thing is a little dicey isn't it? No I'm not saying that there isn't because I'm sure there is. I'm sure the statistics are right and that's a cause for great concern. So I'm not minimizing the problem, right? So hear me clearly. I'm not minimizing the problem. I'm just saying I don't feel like the way we're reporting this has any connection to reality. So we'll see.
I've never before said I had a favorite public feud. You know when celebrities get after each other and famous people are carping at each other they're usually fun for a while but you know I wouldn't say that I had one that I could pick out that's just the best one until today. My new favorite public feud is Cardi B and Candace Owens.
Now if you're not up to date on this the two of them have had some words on social media and Candace Owens has ripped into Cardi B for her allegedly lewd performances. And then Cardi B at one point tweeted a horribly untrue rumor about Candace and her family. I won't even repeat it but just whatever you think on a scale of one to ten whatever is the worst false rumor you might hear it was a ten. All right. And it wasn't really a rumor that sounded like it could have been true. I mean it just sounded like it was fake on the surface and it was.
So then Candace goes back at her and blah blah. So Cardi B's last rejoinder if you will was one of the best things I've ever seen in terms of persuasion. All right. So you got these two celebrity type people and they're going at it in public and you figure that when one escalates the other is going to match it or escalate a little bit more and it's just going to get worse and worse.
But instead Cardi B giving Scott a little lesson on why she's famous. Because let me, you know I've told you before I'm not really a music guy. I don't really follow music so I don't even know a lot about the most popular entertainers. So I didn't know much about Cardi B. I couldn't except for WAP I couldn't even name a title of a song and I don't even know what it sounds like. So her most famous song I've never heard that I know of.
But and so I was thinking to myself does she really have all this talent? Because I was wondering where's all this talent? Because I wasn't seeing it. You know in little clips and stuff I saw of Cardi B it wasn't jumping out at me what is it that makes her famous. Like I couldn't figure out why is she famous. It just wasn't clicking with me.
And then I saw her latest tweet to Candace and this was the moment I said oh I get it now. I totally get it now. So here's what she did. She showed a video of I guess Cardi B doing a big old tongue kiss on some black woman who was not Candace. But Cardi B tweeted this to Candace. She says me you on a beach while debating about Trump and Biden. Think about it Republicans. Go watch WAP I guess that's her music video to see what this is about.
So Cardi B tweets a picture of her making out with a black woman and sends it to Candace saying me and you on a beach. Now come on. In the history of all public feuds is this not the best response you've ever seen? Yeah I get it that's gross and you know there's some of you who are turned off by the sexual part of it. I get that. I get that you can have that opinion.
But the fact that she took this thing that was a feud and turned it perfectly into a promotion for her music video and just took the argument into this whole weird place it's just one of the most awesome things I've ever seen. Yeah it's comedy, it's persuasion, it's promotion. So in this one little anecdote of this, just one tweet, suddenly you could see everything that makes Cardi B who she is.
Because let me say it this way. You couldn't have written this tweet. The average person can't do this. So whatever there is about her, you know whatever it is that made her famous she has something. There's something there. There's a type of intelligence that comes out with this that probably pervaded all of her other work and I think that's what people see. She's weirdly intelligent. I feel like that's what I'm seeing here. Am I wrong?
Yeah I'm saying in the comments everybody wants to judge her by her you know she was a stripper and she's raunchy and stuff. So you want to judge her by all that stuff but she is in the industry where all that stuff works right. And I don't know she's not dumb that's for sure.
Over at Breitbart, oh here's Piers Morgan. So you all know the Piers Morgan story. He walked off of Good Morning Britain, his popular show. He just walked off when his opinions about Meghan Markle were not agreed with by his staff. And since then Good Morning Britain has lost a third of its viewers. How do you win harder than that?
Because all Piers Morgan asked is that he would be allowed to present his opinion on an opinion show. That's all he asked. Piers Morgan only asked that he'd be allowed to present his honest opinion on an opinion show of which he is the host. Come on is that the most reasonable thing that anybody ever asked? I'd like to put my honest opinion on this honest opinion show. Most reasonable thing anybody ever asked. And apparently that was a problem.
So he walks off and it costs them a third of their business which probably puts them underwater. I don't know if you could lose a third of your audience and stay profitable in today's world. I don't know.
Biden had an interview with Stephanopoulos on ABC because apparently that's a safe space. So Biden I guess knows that Stephanopoulos will ask the right questions and they'll edit out anything that looks too bad. So this is a little safe space. But here are some of the dumb things that Biden said.
Biden denied that he should have anticipated the surge in migrants based on his softening of the rules. Really? I hope that was a lie. I've never hoped a politician was lying more than I hope it now. You didn't anticipate that the part where you said we'll make it really easy to come across the border and you didn't anticipate that that would cause some additional people to come across the border? I hope he's lying because if he's a liar well then he's just a politician. But if he really didn't anticipate it we've got a big problem. We've got a big problem. Because you know who did anticipate it? Everyone else in the world. All seven point whatever billion of us. Every one of us anticipated this but Joe Biden didn't. He's the only one.
All right. Then he said he was defending the idea that people were coming here because of his policies and he goes the idea that Joe Biden said come because I heard the other day that they're coming because they know I'm a nice guy. Biden said here's the deal they're not. And I thought to myself that if that works as a defense I'm gonna use it for everything.
You know if somebody comes upon me and there's somebody who's been murdered and I'm covered with blood and I've got the murder weapon in my hand and they play the video back after I get arrested and they say well there you are on video we can watch you murdering this person. There's blood all over you, their DNA, you've got the murder weapon in your hand. What do you say? Here's what I'd say. I'd say come on man here's the deal it didn't happen. And then the police would say oh well I'm sorry we saw this blood all over you and then you had the murder weapon and we've got the video of you committing the crime so we just leapt to this conclusion that you were guilty. But then when you offered your defense here's the deal I didn't do it. Well we're persuaded. Here's the deal. Never happened.
Meanwhile Biden's job approval stays high. I think Rasmussen is going to give you some numbers that will make your head fall off that Biden's approval is so good. Now it's not an accident that keeping him out of the headlines makes him more popular is it? We all agree with that right? There's nobody who would disagree with the statement that the more you keep Biden out of the news the more he's popular right? Because the news is about your flaws. The news is rarely about the good thing you did. It's about your flaws.
So the less news there is and it might be that Biden has discovered something that all future presidents will use because you don't have to be Biden to be more popular by not being on TV. I feel the more that you show yourself the less popular you are. And I'm wondering what will happen if Biden goes into a coma. I feel as if his popularity would reach levels that we've never seen before. Like if he actually went into actual coma I'm not hoping that happens of course but if he did I think he would hit like 80 approval ratings. And if he were to actually die in office which again we hope that doesn't happen nobody wants anything bad to happen to anybody but I think that would be his highest popularity. He could reach 100 percent because if he actually were dead I think Republicans would be in favor of him at that point and then Democrats. He could actually reach a hundred percent approval just before his final breath. So there's that.
Biden also said in the Stephanopoulos interview that Putin would pay a price. He told Stephanopoulos because quote we had a long talk he and I meaning Putin. Biden I know him relatively well and the conversation started off I said I know you and you know me. If I established this occurred then be prepared. This occurred meaning interference in the election. When pushed on what the consequences would be the president said the price he's going to pay well you'll see shortly. So take that Putin. Putin if you've done this I'm going to do something to you and I'm not going to tell you what so be afraid.
At the same time he was making these comments like literally just about the same time his own Biden's own director of national intelligence was saying that they've looked into it and there's no evidence that Russia targeted the election this year. No evidence of it. Do you believe that? Do you believe that Russia targeted our election in every prior election which probably they did but not this one? Not this one when Biden wins there was no Putin in there at all. Suppose Trump had won do you think they'd still be saying there's no Putin interference? Doesn't seem like it.
All right but apparently our intelligence agency is saying that Russia did authorize a persistent effort in just influence. So Russia is doing an influence campaign but not specifically on the election I guess. So wouldn't that be like every country? Isn't every country doing an influence campaign on every other country? The big ones anyway.
So here's the other news. Biden was asked to tell the migrants or the immigrants to don't come. And here's what he said. He said don't come. Said it directly. So that's good right? Because Biden looked right into the camera talking to the potential migrants who might come across the border and he said in direct words don't come. And then he added stay in your towns. Pretty good. That's what you wanted of him right? Don't come and stay in your towns. It's very clear. Very clear.
Well there's a second part of it where he talks about how that the government our government is setting up more facilities to handle things when you come. Oh wait that's different. He's saying don't come until we have enough facilities to handle you efficiently. I didn't see anybody report that did you? I was looking at the news today and I was looking at Biden's comments and I thought well this will be the big headline that he just said just wait you migrants just wait until we can handle the volume and then come on in. That's what I read. Was I reading between the lines? I mean he didn't say that directly. Well no he did say that directly. It looked pretty direct to me. He said don't come yet because we don't have our operation efficient but as soon as we're efficient come on in.
Oh Tucker reported it last night. Somebody's saying I didn't see Tucker last night but I didn't see it on the I don't think I saw it on Fox News page this morning or on CNN. How is that not the biggest news in the country? The biggest news in the country should be that the president just invited Mexico into the United States and said the only thing stopping you is you know we're not efficient enough to process you but we're working on it. What would be bigger news than that? Like what?
It's the damnedest thing. I've told you this many times but every time you see an example of it it shakes you. Which is the things that we're told are the news are not the things that are important necessarily. They're the things that the news business has decided they want to report on. It's something they're going to you know have a theme that goes through the season you know it's like a story with an arc and everything. But then you see other stories that are like gigantically important. I mean enormously important story. But if the news business just decides to de-emphasize it it's like it never existed.
All right. What else we got? So CNN this was weird. On CNN Jeff Zeleny who's a senior Washington correspondent wrote an article in which I almost can't believe this happened. He was basically giving Republican Governor DeSantis credit for being right on how he handled the coronavirus. This is weird. You don't expect it right? So CNN actually has an opinion piece where they say they're calling out a Republican governor for getting it right.
Here's my problem with this. I think we're ascribing intelligence to luck. Here's what I think happened in Florida. I think Florida made its decisions on let's say political philosophical grounds which is favoring freedom over you know safety a little bit. And that somebody was going to get lucky because one of the things we've learned is that we can't tell if leadership decisions are making much difference across the world you know country to country etc. We can't even figure out what works because there are places where the same thing that seems to work in one country didn't work at all in another. There are places like Japan where they basically hardly did anything about the pandemic and it didn't affect them much. We don't know why.
And so here was what was going to happen. There are 50 states. It is a guarantee that somebody was going to do well out of the 50 states compared to the other states right? Just somebody has to be in the top half of performance. And the people making these decisions were not making these decisions based on their superior data or their superior judgment. They were making the decisions along political lines. Somebody was going to get lucky. His name is DeSantis. He got lucky.
Because if you tell me that Ron DeSantis knew that he knew this was the right path for Florida that's crazy. He didn't know. He guessed. And all the other states that had good performance and bad performance do you know what they did? They guessed. They guessed. That's it. There were 50 states. Somebody was going to guess right I mean righter than the others because they were doing different stuff and they were going to get different results for reasons that may or may not have anything to do with the governor.
So while the way our system works is that DeSantis does get credit I agree with that by the way. So I agree that our system works best if we give credit to people who are in charge and even if they didn't do something that was their fault if they're in charge when it happens they got to pay for it. That's just the way the system has to be. So I do think it's reasonable to give DeSantis and other governors who did well credit. But realistically they were the ones who got lucky. And if you don't see it as luck I feel like you're not analyzing this right.
Jake Tapper went pretty hard at Governor Newsom and he asked basically what were you thinking about going to the French Laundry. And here's the thing. Apparently the recall effort went from 50,000 some signatures to close to 2 million and the big spike happened after the story about the governor going to the French Laundry to eat when other people he was asking to be you know. But well anyway he hit a table with no masks and lots of people had it so he got in trouble.
Now here's my take on that. So it turns out that that was like the pivotal moment that may have taken him out. He may still win re-election but it was a pivotal moment. It was also the least important thing he did. It was the least important thing Newsom did. I would say he should be held to account for the forest fires, the energy problems, immigration, COVID, the economy, homeless people, drugs, mental health problems. Those are all big and he should be held to account for all of that stuff.
Do you know what he should not be held accountable for? Eating at a restaurant that was open. Because everybody else that day who ate at a restaurant that was open did not break any laws. Neither did he. Now he does take responsibility for sitting at a table with too many people without masks from different houses and that was just a mistake. It was a human mistake right? Because let's face it no matter how much all of us you know try to follow the rules even if you're trying you're trying to wear your mask you're trying to do everything right can you say you haven't broken any of those rules? Of course you have. A hundred percent of the public bends the rules on this coronavirus restriction stuff.
Do I care if my governor bent a little rule on this? Not even a little bit. So it looks like he might get taken out by the only thing that wasn't a big deal. All these other things are really big deals. This was the only thing that was trivial and it'll be the thing that takes him out because the news made a big thing about it and there was a picture. So whenever there's a picture it's worse and it makes it look like he's the elite because it's expensive restaurant etc. And there was a lobbyist in there. It was all that stuff. But man in terms of content it was the least important thing he did.
So there's some new news in the George Floyd trial and I swear they should just cancel this trial. I mean that literally. We have enough information now to know that this trial should not be held. And one of the new things that we've learned is that apparently George Floyd was arrested in an identical fashion, identical in some elements to the event in which he died. Including he was under the influence and including he was calling for his mother and including he said he couldn't breathe and including he was resisting arrest a little bit.
So I don't know when you see that and apparently this will be allowed. I think the judge is going to allow the evidence of his past behavior because once you see that he called for his mother before that's the end of it isn't it? Because you know just like the Governor Newsom story all of these other things were the important things but we get focused on the French Laundry thing because it's the shiny object. With the George Floyd thing the shiny object that people tend to focus on is that he called for his mother moments before he died.
Now if you're a human being you can't hear that without feeling it right? I mean you just feel that. But the moment you learn that that's just a thing he does when he gets arrested it means a completely different thing. Now it just means it's the thing he says when he gets arrested. I don't know how this trial could have any kind of a murder conviction.
Cliff Sims was noting on Twitter. Cliff Sims was noting that Axios had this line in a story. So this is a quote from the story in Axios. Trump and other conservatives have frequently warned sometimes inaccurately about foreign terrorists entering the United States via the southern border. So that's a sentence in a story by Axios. And as Cliff Sims points out imagine writing this line in a story that literally proves the warnings were in fact accurate because the story was about actual people on the terrorist watch list who came across the border. Like it was a story about real terrorists coming or at least on the watch list coming across the border. And then they have to insert a line about Trump and other conservatives frequently being inaccurate about foreign terrorists entering via the southern border. I mean that's trying really hard to make your news friendly to Biden is it?
All right. Here's the best summary of the pandemic I've heard so far. It's a big complicated thing right but Melissa Slusher on Twitter summed it up with one tweet and she tweeted I used to cough to cover up a fart. Now I fart to cover up a cough. We're done here. I think we're done here.
I have a question for you on transgender stuff. Let me begin this by saying the trans community I hope they know that I'm your greatest ally much to the chagrin of my audience. Number two everything I'm going to say about this topic is with respect and good intentions. So if you feel that I say something next that sounds disrespectful just know that that's not my intention okay?
But I was watching the story of Elliot Page who used to be known as Ellen Page and when she was defining herself as female she's a well-known successful actress but is now Elliot Page and has transitioned. And here's a question I ask and I say this again I'm asking this question with genuine respectful curiosity okay? So let's keep it at that level. This is respectful curiosity and I think it's a fair question and it goes like this.
I don't know the point of transitioning. Do you? Can somebody explain it to me? Like why would you do it? Now I understand that people think they identify with a different gender in their mind. I get that. But why would you go through the process?
Because here then let me drill down on that a little bit. So the picture of Elliot Page on Time magazine shows Elliot just in of course you know boy or man attire. She looks about or I'm sorry see there I did it. So that's accidental. So I accidentally used the wrong pronoun but because you know that I'm not doing anything disrespectfully just a mistake okay?
Here's my question. In a world in which you can fall in love with and marry anybody you want, men can marry men, women can marry women, anybody can do anything. In a world in which you could wear any clothing you want right you can put on any clothes you want why do you have to do anything else? And this is genuine curiosity and I feel like there's some big part of this whole topic that I don't understand.
So if there's somebody in the transgender community who can explain to me what is the extra gain you get by the physical operations. So let's say Elliot Page I don't know what Elliot Page's sexual preference is because that gets all confusing right? So let's say but let's say that Elliot Page liked women. I don't know if that's true but let's just say that's true. Why wouldn't Elliot Page be able to date that same woman without having done any of the transition? You know assuming that that woman wants to be dated right? So if you can date anybody you want you can wear anything you want what is the point? I actually don't understand the point.
And I'm just going to look at your messages and see if any of you know the point. Yeah so somebody's saying you feel trapped in the wrong body but does the operation help that? I don't know does it? And what does it mean to be trapped in the wrong body? What makes it wrong?
Well let me drill down on that a little bit. And again if you're just joining this we're trying to be respectful and the intention is just to learn something here that I really genuinely am confused about. Because I think if you understand any group better your ability to accept them and you know not to be biased is just easier. So just understanding is a big deal.
Somebody says there's a psychophysical alignment problem. But here's my problem. If we agree there's no one right way to look how could you be mismatched with your look and your brain? So I guess that's let me say that again. If we've accepted the point and I do I accept this point they can look any way you want doesn't matter what your gender is or your preference you can look any way you want get any haircut you want wear any clothing you want. But you actually have to. Is there a mental I'll just say a situation I don't want to put a judgment on it. Is there a mental situation where there's someone who was born biologically female where they really need to have a penis? Other than it would be a defining characteristic of being a male gender. But does the penis specifically like if you feel is this what it is do you feel like it should be there and it's not there you look down and there's no penis and then you need to fix that to feel like you're all whole? Is that what it is?
Yeah so I don't really understand it. I don't understand it on a logical level but I want to. I would actually like to understand it. All right we'll get off that.
Did you see that video of the Biden and the microphones? It looks like there's some weird illusion where it looks like his hand goes past the microphone or through it or something. You have to see that video. It's kind of freaky but I think it's just that just the way the cameras are set up. There's nothing to it except that the microphones were on long sticks so that the reporters were actually pretty far away from Biden but you couldn't tell because you just saw the tops of the microphones. You didn't know they were on long sticks. And then when Biden's talking at one point his hand goes past the microphone which you think would be impossible if the reporter were holding it. So that's how the illusion happens. But since you don't know they're on sticks Biden just walked up to the microphones and at one point his hand went past them. I think that's all it was.
All right. So there was a claim that Columbia University was holding separate student graduation ceremonies by income and sexual orientation. That turned out to be fake news. Partially fake news because everybody goes to the same graduation at Columbia University but voluntarily they can have their own separate in addition to graduations voluntarily of you know a group by ethnicity or income or whatever.
And I'm thinking to myself how is that good? How does let's say you're a black graduate or anything else like I suppose there's probably an Asian American group etc. And you've graduated you graduated with everybody and then you want to hold your own separate graduation with people who have your ethnic similarity. How does that help you really? Now I could see if you had a party. If you had a party with the people who were like you even then that would be a little sketchy but at least you know it doesn't sound as bad as having a graduation ceremony with just people who look like you. Well yeah it just doesn't seem like there's anything good that could come out of that. But a party yeah party's a party.
Rasmussen is reporting that 75 percent of I think likely voters I always forget to ask which group they're looking at but I think 75 percent of people polled were supportive of voter ID laws as you might suspect. Yes 89 percent of them are Republicans but even 60 percent of Democrats and 77 percent of unidentified want voter ID laws.
Now at the same time there's 75 percent of the public want voter ID laws and even a solid majority of Democrats the Senate's working on this HR1 bill that if it passes would quote force states to allow anyone who to vote who simply signs a form saying they are who they claim they are. And I'm thinking to myself has there ever been a cleaner example of the government not being on your side?
Now I do approve of a government doing things that the public does not like right but the case to do that is when the government has more information or is smarter than the public. In those cases yeah I'm glad we have a republic so then the elected people make our smart decisions so dumb people like us don't have to. But in the case of voter ID laws I feel confident that every citizen understands the entire topic. There's nothing complicated about should you show your ID to vote. Like everybody gets that. There's no context missing. We all get that.
And if 75 percent of the public who gets that completely understands the topic and doesn't want it to happen and yet your government is doing it to you right in front of you they have left. Yeah they've left the station at this point. They're not even pretending to be on your side. Like usually they at least have an argument well you know we're definitely on your side it's good for my re-election but mostly it's good for you. Yeah it's coincidentally good for me as a politician. But in this case they're not even pretending. Not even pretending.
If I were president let me tell you how I would handle this. If I ever saw a topic that had 75 percent support I would support it assuming that the public understood the topic as easily as they do this. And even if I disagreed if I were in the 25 I would say oh I'm the president of the United States. 75 percent of the people understand this topic and want it this way. I'm going to support them hard. 75 percent. It's not even close right? A lot of our issues are sort of close to 50-50.
But this isn't close. When you get to 75 and both parties are dominantly in favor of it this is not a close call. And we just allow this. I mean this could just happen because we don't care about it right? So to the extent that the news doesn't make this a big issue it's just sort of a little highlight at one point we'll just let this go through. This is actually going to happen right in front of us. Well 75 percent of the public doesn't want it to happen. Amazing. And it's only good for the politicians the Democrats apparently.
So that is my show for the day. If you didn't see yesterday I did a special live stream on YouTube in which I was showing you the entire writing process of writing a joke for a comic strip. And I think that even if you're not interested in writing comic strips you would be very interested if you have any interest in writing just writing in general. I think you'd be interested in seeing the thought process from beginning to end. So go check that out. It's on YouTube.
And all right. Oh it looks like there's some reporting about the Atlanta massage parlor things and it says the alleged perp had a sexual addiction and so I guess those massage parlors probably were giving happy endings and so he was just a crazy guy with a sex addiction. It doesn't seem to be racial. So the fact that there was no evidence whatsoever that it was racially motivated turns out it was not racially motivated exactly like we assumed.
All right. And if you haven't seen my lesson on Locals the subscription platform my tour through the way to reframe your experience and get better results by reframing the way you think was very well received. Very well received. I'm working on a reframe now and I'm closing in on it but I don't have it yet. And the reframe is to fix the problem that so many people have which is you care about criticism and when if you think somebody's thinking poorly of you in any sense it really really affects you.
Now that is a I would call that a maybe a I'm not sure it's a flaw because it's built into all of us. It's more natural but there but you could find a hack to reduce it. So I'm working on a few ways to reframe how you think about yourself in the world to deal with the fact that you're being affected by criticism more than you want to be. And I'm getting close to that and I'll give a micro lesson on that when I have it.
All right that's all for now and I will talk to you later. Hack your imposter syndrome. You know the imposter syndrome is where you think you're bluffing because and everybody else is smart but you're just faking it. And I'll tell you how I dealt with that. The way to deal with your imposter syndrome is to know that everybody is faking it. And once I learned that everyone is faking it all the time and the people that you think are in control and they're confident and they really know what they're doing they don't. They're just better at faking or they may have convinced themselves or something. But once you realize everybody's faking pretty much everybody's faking all the time you don't have imposter syndrome. You have human being syndrome. You're just a human. We're all faking all the time. Some are just better at it.
All right. What happens when you believe your own BS? That's everybody. Everybody believes their own BS. That's why we live in subjective realities. You believe yours I believe mine.
What would we do to stop the inevitable trial riots? Well probably nothing. I feel as if the riots are just baked in because the people who do the riots don't really need a reason so they're going to be looking for a reason. So I don't think you could remove the reason because they're looking for it. They're going to find it no matter what you do. But you might be able to minimize it a little bit. You could take some off the top perhaps. If you took 20 percent of the energy out of it that could be a big difference.
And here's the way I think that could happen. If there's enough reporting about the George Floyd situation and there are enough experts who say yeah it was the fentanyl that got him and it can be demonstrated that the knee hold is unlikely to have been much of a difference maybe some of the energy can be taken out of it but I don't think so.
Zhu Bai Deng will rest up. I don't know what that's about. All right just looking at your comments and I think we're done here and I will talk to you tomorrow.
hey everybody this is the place to be the place where all the simultaneous sipping originated yeah it's a big phenomenon around the world i know you're hearing about it everywhere but this is where it started and it's the best thing that ever happened in the history of civilization it's called the simultaneous sip what do you need to contribute not a lot all you need is a copper marker glass to tank your telescope canteen drug flash vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid i like coffee and join me now for the unparalleled pleasure the dopamine didn't say the thing that makes everything better it's called disabled sip and it's happening now go somebody says my racing stripes make me look fast i think that's true i think it also makes me look like if i cover up the bottom parts it looks looks like i'm some kind of military general all right that doesn't work let's talk about all of the news uh mike lindell of mypillow fame is countersuing dominion uh election software company now as you know dominion is suing mike lindell for claiming that their machines had any issues in the election mike lindell is suing them back now and it says here in the report i saw that alan dershowitz has joined the legal team so alan dershowitz is on mike lindell's legal team how would you like to be dominion software or dominion whatever the name is called how would you like to be dominion and find out that the guy you're counter suing is the guy you're suing is counter suing and he just got ellen dershowitz on his team how do you feel about that i don't think that i don't think anybody ever had worse news dominion we've got some bad news and some worst news what's the bad news well you're probably going to lose billions in revenue because michael and dell the pillow guy is going to tear you apart in public well that's bad that's really bad what's the worst news when he counter sues you he's going to have alan dershowitz on his team it's a little worse it's a little worse now of course people are assuming that the real play here because mike lindell said it directly is that if he gets sued then he can he has the right to dig into some of their their details their operation so he has the right of discovery he can ask questions and they have to answer them and the thinking is that if they do have anything to hide or anything that they might just not want anybody to know it doesn't have to be a crime just something they don't want people to know that they'll probably back down so if you had to predict where this goes my guess is that lindell will ask for information that dominion doesn't want to give them and that will be the end of it because if they don't provide it they're either going to have to drop the lawsuit or provide it those are the two choices and i don't see how they could possibly provide everything that dershowitz and lindell and the team are going to ask for because you know that dershowitz and his lawyers are going to be smart enough to know to ask for things that they won't give them but that's the end of it am i wrong let me tell you a story about a lawsuit i was involved with some years ago in which i can't give you the details because the part of the court the court settlement is you agree not to talk about the details so i'll say there's a very large entity a really large company that once sued me and i said quite reasonably oh well if you have a claim that something bad happened because of it was one of my businesses my restaurant if you have a claim that's based on my restaurant just show us what the evidence is and just show us the evidence and we'll take that under consideration and they wouldn't they said no our our contract states that we don't have to send you so show you evidence we can just claim that you did something bad and then start draining your bank account and i thought well there's no way my contract says that but it did the contract actually said they could drain your bank account just because they said they had a reason they don't have to show you the evidence so they sue me and i you know we i decided to take it to court it would have been easy to settle i could have just paid the i don't know 90 000 or whatever it was that they were trying to get from me so i could have settled but it kind of made me mad because there was no evidence of any anything the their claim just they didn't show us any evidence and i correctly uh estimated that if i took it to court which i did or at least i took it to negotiations it didn't actually make it to court i correctly assumed that if i said yeah let's go to court and you're going to have to show me the evidence that shows what the problem is here that they would uh they would drop it and they did so the moment i threatened i'll show you mine if you showed me yours it was over that was it and i correctly estimated that that would be the you know the outcome now i'm no lawyer but i live in the real world and i do know that real people like to hide their secrets and if those are in play they're going to change their mind so there's that we'll watch that um there's also a related story sort of related let's see if i can find this about is it michigan where the courts have decided that michigan did not handle the election correctly and that their changes to the um voter the mail-in votes were illegal we're illegal now that won't change any of the outcome right because biden's the president that's not going to change but every day that goes by we're going to find out a little bit more about what happened in the past and i'm going to say something that will probably get me kicked off of all social media i don't know but i'm going to try it out so here will be an edge case i predict now let me say it as clearly as possible so i want to i want to say this in the uh in a way that there's no falsehoods but i'll probably also get kicked off of social media so i'm not going to say anything that is false okay first true statement biden is president the the system elected him he's been certified he's president that's it biden won the presidency in 2020.
now here's my prediction now the prediction is not based on any false claims right so there will be no allegation of any claims it's just a prediction that we will someday learn that trump won the election at least in terms of the votes or somewhat similarly that the election was that the election was not what we thought it was which ends up being the same you don't know who won so i'm sure i would get kicked off of social media if i said i know this to be true but i don't i'm simply sticking with my prediction that if you wait long enough and it could be 10 years right it could be 10 years that somebody will come forward sometime in the next 10 years and say you know here's something you didn't know so um when i was talking about the uh the accuracy of my predictions i was noting that how accurate my predictions are depends how long you wait if you don't wait very long they don't look so good but if you keep waiting they might look better so here's the question can i say something that's a pure opinion while also saying it's not backed by a specific fact but it is the accumulated uh let's say accumulated um instinct that's the wrong word but getting close to it it's sort of the accumulated instinct of life meaning that sometimes you can smell things before you can see them and i think a lot of people have the same same feeling that i smell something with this election but i can't see it so we'll see take for example just the michigan story i'm not sure i have all the facts of that right but if it turned out that just the michigan story stands and the michigan story is that there was some something illegal happened in the state now again it doesn't matter to the outcome the outcome is done right biden is president nothing's going to change that except his health i suppose but won't history record that the vote in michigan was not the way it should have gone if everything had been done legally that's just a true statement right it would is there any doubt about the statement i just made the history will record based on what we know now because the court has actually ruled that what was done there was not legally copacetic so we now have michigan that's put into the the unknown category unknown what would have happened if they had handled everything the way the the courts say they should have that's one now what will happen um in georgia if we continue waiting and the uh chain of custody information never never comes forward because that's the situation now so there are these documents that show where the ballots were and who controlled them so you have this chain of custody so that's been asked for but they're not providing it now it's been a few weeks what if it's never provided how will history judge the georgia outcome if they don't provide the most basic visibility that you would have which is the chain of custody well i think that takes georgia and moves it into the maybe box again the election's over biden's president nothing's going to change it but i think michigan and georgia just got moved into the maybe category now we've got this mike lindell thing what's going to happen when mike lindell asks for discovery and transparency and probably even the the source code right don't you think mike lindell will be able to ask for the source code how the hell are they going to give them the source code i mean really no company gives you the source code you have to assume it's proprietary at some level right so i think we're going to move into a point where we went from those voting machines were absolutely definitely fine according to the you know official the official statement about it no evidence of any fraud i don't believe that here's my prediction i don't believe mike lindell will produce any evidence of fraud by dominion all right here hear that as clearly as possible i predict he won't find any evidence of fraud from dominion because the discovery will not go that far there's no way that they can open their kimono and show them everything that he's going to ask for they have to settle they have to and i think this is probably why dershowitz is on the case this is just a guess right i shouldn't i shouldn't speculate about what uh what dershowitz would do because he's operating at a different level than i am but i feel as though he probably sees what i see and and lots more of course i think he sees what i see that there's no way the dominion can actually press this case because they can't open the kimono they can't show you the source code and if they don't if they don't what are you going to do with dominion you're going to move it into the maybe category so in mere months it looks like michigan maybe georgia and maybe the dominion system will have been moved from the these are definitely okay to the we got big questions and one of them definitely would have been different michigan we don't know different in what way but different and two of the other ones are in the maybe category so that's going to happen within a year so within a year we're going to go from definitely we had an election we can trust to well there's no way to know what happens in 10 years right i'm going to keep my prediction in 10 years history will by consensus agree that trump won the election in 2020.
now if you never see me again on social media because i think that's the rule now right simply saying what i just said should get me kicked off of social media shouldn't it those are the rules but i haven't said anything fraudulent and you need people like me to press the boundary here right so every time somebody gets taken down for their uh anti-wokeness you it's everything's just going to keep going that way until somebody pushes back so in some ways in some ways um i'm i'm giving you an edge case intentionally i'm pushing the boundary beyond where i know the boundary wants to be i'm just pushing it back a little bit that's all so may never see you again there's a story about uh some tragedy and i guess a couple of atlanta massage parlors some guy with a gun came in and uh shot a bunch of people two different massage parlors and of course it's being reported as anti-asian-american violence but where in the story is evidence to support the claims that this might have to do with a racial motive right there's no there's no evidence of a racial motive and yet that's the lead story why would you put a racial story into a story that doesn't have any any indication now it might end up that that's exactly what it was in which case you know that adds a horror on top of a horror but this whole anti-asian american violence thing is a little dicey isn't it no i'm not saying that there isn't because i'm sure there is i'm sure the statistics are right and that's a cause for uh great concern so i'm not minimizing the problem right so hear me hear me clearly i'm not minimizing the problem i'm just saying i i don't feel like the way we're reporting this has any connection to reality so we'll see um i've never before said i had a favorite public feud you know when celebrities get after each other and famous people are carping at each other they're usually fun for a while but you know i wouldn't say that i had one that i could pick out that's just the best one until today my new favorite public feud is cardi b and candace owens now if you're not up to date on this the two of them have had some words on social media and candace owens has ripped into cardi b for her uh you know allegedly lewd performances and then cardi b at one point tweeted a a horribly untrue rumor about candace and her family i won't even repeat it but just whatever you think on a scale of one to ten whatever is the worst false rumor you might hear it was a ten all right and it wasn't really a rumor that sounded like it could have been that true i mean it just sounded like it was fake on the surface and it was so then uh so can just goes back at her and uh blah blah so cardi b's uh last rejoinder if you will was one of the best things i've ever seen in terms of persuasion all right so you got these two two celebrity type people and they're they're going at it in public and you figure that when one escalates the other is going to match it or esc a little bit more and it's just going to get worse and worse but instead cardi b giving giving scott a little lesson on why she's famous because let me you know i've told you before i'm not really a music guy i don't really follow music so i don't even know a lot about the most popular entertainers so i didn't know much about cardi b you didn't i couldn't except for wap i couldn't even name a title of a song and i don't know even what it sounds like so her most famous song i've never heard that i know of but and so i was thinking to myself does she really have all this talent because i was wondering where where's all this talent because i wasn't seeing it you know in little clips and stuff i saw of cardi b it wasn't jumping out at me what is it that makes her famous like i couldn't figure out why is she famous it just it just wasn't clicking with me and then i saw her latest tweet to candace and this was the moment i said oh i get it now i totally get it now so here's what she did she showed a video of i guess cardi b doing a uh a big old tongue kiss on some black woman who was not candace but car but cardi b uh tweet this to candace she says me you on a beach while debating about trump and biden think about it republicans go watch up i guess that's her music video to see what this is about so so cardi b tweets a picture of her making out with a black woman and and sends it to candace saying me and you on a beach now come on in the history of all public feuds is this not the best response you've ever seen yeah i get it that's gross and you know there's some of you were turned off by the you know the sexual part of it i get that i get that you you can have that opinion but the fact that she took this thing that was a feud and turned it perfectly into a promotion for her music video and just took the argument into this whole weird place it's just one of the most awesome things i've ever seen yeah it's it's comedy it's persuasion it's promotion so so in this this one uh this one little uh anecdote of this just one tweet suddenly you could see everything that makes cardi b who she is because let me say it this way you couldn't have written this tweet the average person can't do this so whatever there is about her you know whatever it is that made her famous she has something there's something there there's a type of intelligence that comes out with this that probably you know pervaded all of her other work and i think that's what people see there's like a she's a she's weirdly intelligent i i feel like that's that's what i'm seeing here am i wrong yeah i'm saying in the comments everybody wants to judge her by her you know she was a stripper and she's and she's raunchy and stuff so you want to judge her by all that stuff but she is in the industry where all that stuff works right and i don't know she's not dumb that's for sure over at breitbart oh here's uh pierce morgan so you all know the pierce morgan story he walked off of good morning britain his popular show he just walked off when um his opinions about megan markel were not agreed with by his staff and since then good morning britain has lost a third of his viewers how do you win harder than that because all pierce morrigan asked is that he would be allowed to present his telev his opinion on an opinion show that's all he asked pierce morgan only asked that he'd be allowed to present his honest opinion on an opinion show of which he is the host come on is that the most reasonable thing that anybody ever asked i'd like to put my honest opinion on this honest opinion show most reasonable thing anybody harassed and apparently that was a problem so he walks off and it costs them a third of their business which probably puts them underwater i don't know if you could lose a third of your audience and stay profitable in today's world i don't know um biden had an interview with uh stepanopolis on abc because apparently that's a safe space so biden i guess knows that stephanopoulos will ask the right questions and they'll edit out anything that looks too bad so this is a little safe space but here are some of the dumb things that biden said biden denied that he should have anticipated the surge in migrants based on his softening of of the rules really i hope that was a lie i've never hoped a politician was lying more than i hope it now you didn't anticipate that the part where you said will make it really easy to come across the border and you didn't anticipate that that would cause some additional people to come across the border i hope he's lying because if he's a liar well then he's just a politician but if he really didn't anticipate it we've got a big problem we've got a big problem because you know who did anticipate it everyone else in the world all seven point whatever billion of us every one of us anticipated this but joe biden didn't he's the only one all right uh then he said uh he was defending the idea that people were coming here because of his policies and he goes the idea that joe biden said come because i heard the other day that they're coming because they know i'm a nice guy biden said here's the deal they're not and i thought to myself that if that works as a defense i'm gonna use it for everything you know if somebody comes upon me and there's there's somebody who's been murdered and i'm covered with blood and i've got the murder weapon in my hand and they play the video back after i get arrested and they say well there you are on video we can watch you murdering this person there's blood all over you their dna you've got the murder weapon in your hand what do you say here's what i'd say i'd say come on man here's the deal it didn't happen and then the police would say oh oh well i'm sorry we saw this blood all over you and then you had the murder weapon and we've got the video of you committing the crime so we just leapt to this conclusion that you were guilty but then when you offered your defense here's the deal i didn't do it well we're persuaded here's the deal never happened um meanwhile biden's job approval stays high i think rasmussen is going to going to give you some numbers that will make your head fall off that biden's approval is so good now it's not an accident that keeping him out of the headlines makes it more popular is it we all agree with that right there's nobody who would disagree with the statement that the more you keep biden out of the news the more he's popular right because the news is about your flaws the news is rarely about the good thing you did it's about your flaws so the less news there is and it might be that biden has discovered something that all future presidents will use because you don't have to be biden to be more popular by not being on tv i feel the more that you show yourself the less popular you are um and i'm wondering what will happen if biden goes into a coma i feel as if his popularity would reach levels that we've never seen before like if he actually went into actual coma i'm not hoping that happens of course but if he did i think he would hit like 80 approval ratings and if he were to actually die in office which again we hope that doesn't happen nobody wants anything bad to happen to anybody but i think that would be his highest popularity he could reach 100 because if he actually were dead i think republicans would be in favor of him at that point and then democrats would he could actually reach a hundred percent approval just before his final breath so there's that biden also said in the stepanopolis interview that uh putin would pay a price he told uh stephanopoulos because quote we had a long talk he and i meaning putin biden i know him relatively well and the conversation started off i said i know you and you know me if i established this occurred then be prepared this occurred meaning interference in the election when pushed on what the consequences would be the president said the price he's going to pay well you'll see shortly so take that putin putin if you've done this i'm going to do something to you and i'm not going to tell you what so be afraid um at the same time he was making these comments like literally just about the same time his own biden's own director of national intelligence was saying that they've looked into it and and there's no evidence that russia targeted the election this year no evidence of it do you believe that do you believe that uh russia targeted our election in every prior election which probably they did but not this one not this one when biden wins there was no putin in there at all suppose trump had won do you think they'd still be saying there's no putin interference doesn't seem like it all right but apparently our intelligence agency is saying that russia did authorize a persistent effort in uh just influence so russia is doing an influence campaign but not specifically on the election i guess so wouldn't that be like every country isn't every country doing an influence campaign on every other country the big ones anyway um so here's the other news biden was asked to tell the the migrants or the immigrants to don't come and here's what he said he said don't come said it directly so that's good right because biden looked right into the camera talking to the potential migrants who might come across the border and he said in direct words don't come and then he added stay in your towns pretty good that's why you wanted of him right don't come and stay in your towns it's very clear very clear well there's a second part of it where he talks about how that the government our government is setting up more facilities to handle things when you come oh wait that's different he's saying don't come until we have enough facilities to handle you efficiently i didn't see anybody report that did you i was looking at the news today and i was looking at biden's comments and i thought well this will be the big headline that he just said just wait you migrants just wait until we can handle the volume and then come on in that's what i read was i reading between the lines i mean he didn't say that directly well no he did say that directly it looked pretty direct to me he said don't come yet because we don't have our operation efficient but as soon as we're efficient come on and come on in oh tucker reported it last night somebody's saying i didn't see tucker last night but i didn't see it on the uh i don't think i saw it on fox news page this morning or on cnn how is that not the biggest news in the country the biggest news in the country should be that the president just invited mexico into the united states and said the only thing stopping you is you know we're not efficient enough to process you but we're working on it what would be bigger news than that like what it's the damnedest thing i've told you this many times but every time you see an example of it it shakes you which is the things that we're told are the news are not the things that are important necessarily they're the things that the news business has decided they want to report on it's something they're going to you know have a theme that goes through the season you know it's like a like a story with an arc and everything but then you see other stories that are like gigantically important i mean enormously important story but if the news business just decides to de-emphasize it it's like it never existed all right um what else we got uh so cnn this was weird on cnn jeff zeleny who's a senior washington correspondent wrote an article in which i almost can't believe this happened he was basically giving republican uh governor desantis credit for being right on how he handled the coronavirus this is weird you don't expect it right so cnn actually has an opinion piece where they say they're calling out a republican governor for getting it right here's my problem with this i think we're putting uh we're we're ascribing intelligence to luck here's what i think happened in florida i think florida made its decisions on let's say political philosophical grounds which is favoring freedom over you know safety a little bit and that somebody was going to get lucky because one of the things we've learned is that we can't tell we can't tell if leadership decisions are making much difference across the world you know country to country etc we can't even figure out what works because there are places where the same thing that seems to work in one country didn't work at all in another there are places like japan where they basically hardly did anything about the the pandemic and it didn't affect them much we don't know why and so here was what was going to happen there are 50 states it is a guarantee that somebody was going to do well out of the 50 states compared to the other states right just somebody has to be in the top half of performance and the people making these decisions were not making these decisions based on their superior data or their superior judgment they were making the decisions along political lines somebody was going to get lucky his name is desantis he got lucky because if you tell me that ron desantis knew that he knew this was the right path for florida that's crazy he didn't know he guessed and all the other states that had good performance and bad performance do you know what they did they guessed they guessed that's it there were 50 states somebody was going to guess right i mean writer than the others because they were doing different stuff and they were going to get different results for reasons that may or may not have anything to do with the governor so while the way our system works is that desantis does get credit i agree with that by the way so i agree that our system works best if we give credit to people who are in charge and even if they didn't do something that was their fault if they're in charge when it happens they got to pay for it that's just the way the system has to be so i do think you you know it's reasonable to give desantis and other governors who did well credit but realistically realistically they were the ones who got lucky and if you don't see it as luck i feel like you're not analyzing this right um jake tapper went pretty hard at uh governor newsom and uh he asked basically what were you thinking about going to the the french laundry and here's the thing apparently the recall effort went from 50 000 some signatures to close to 2 million and the big spike happened after the story about the governor going to the french laundry to eat uh when other people he was asking to be you know but well anyway he hit a table with no masks and lots of people had it so he got in trouble now here's my take on that so it turns out that that was like the the pivotal moment that may have taken him out he may still win re-election but it was a pivotal moment it was also the least important thing he did it was the least important thing newsom did i would say he should be held to account for the forest fires the energy problems immigration covid the economy homeless people drugs mental health problems those are all big and he should be held to account for all of that stuff do you know what he should not be held account for eating at a restaurant that was open because everybody else that day who ate at a restaurant that was open did not break any laws neither did he now he does take responsibility for sitting at a table with too many people without masks from different houses and that was just a mistake it was a human mistake right because let's face it no matter how much all of us you know try to follow the rules even if you're trying you're trying to wear your mask you're trying to do everything right can you say you haven't broken any of those rules of course you have a hundred percent of the public bends the rules on this coronavirus restriction stuff do i care if my governor bent a little rule on this not even a little bit so so it looks like he might get taken out by the only thing that wasn't a big deal all these other things are really big deals this was the only thing that was trivial and it'll be the thing that takes them out because the news made a big thing about it and there was a picture so whenever there's a picture it's worse and it makes it look like he's the elite because it's expensive restaurant etc and there was a lobbyist in there it was all that stuff but man in terms of content it was the least important thing he did so there's some new news in the george floyd trial and i swear they should just cancel this trial i mean that literally we we have enough information now to know that this trial should not be held and one of the new things that we've learned is that apparently george floyd was arrested in an identical fashion identical in some elements to the the event in which he died including he was under the influence and including he was calling for his mother including he said he couldn't breathe including he was resisting arrest a little bit uh so i don't know when you see that and apparently this will be allowed i think the judge is going to allow the evidence of his past his past behavior because once you see that he called for his mother before that's the end of it isn't it because you know just like the the governor newsom story all of these other things were the important things but we get focused on the french laundry thing because it's the shiny object with the george floyd thing the shiny object that people tend to focus on is that he called for his mother moments before he died now if you're a human being you can't hear that without feeling it right i mean you just feel that but the moment you learn that that's just a thing he does when he gets arrested it means a completely different thing now it just means it's the thing he says when he gets arrested um i i don't know how this trial could have any kind of a murder uh conviction sim cliff sims was noting on twitter cliff sims was noting that axios had uh had this line in a story so this is a quote from the story in exos trump and other conservatives have frequently warned sometimes inaccurately about foreign terrorists entering the united states via the southern border so that's a sentence and a story by axios and as cliff sims points out imagine writing this line in a story that literally proves the warnings were in fact accurate because the story was about actual people on the on the terrorist watch list who came across the border like it was a story about real terrorists coming or at least on the watch list coming across the border and then they have to insert a line about trump and other conservatives frequently being inaccurate about foreign terrorists entering via the southern border i mean that's trying really hard to make your news friendly to to biden is it all right here's the best summary of the pandemic i've heard so far it's a big complicated thing right but uh melissa slusher on twitter summed it up um with one tweet and she tweeted i used to cough to cover up a fart now i fart to cover up a cough we're done here i think we're done here that's the entire pandemic in one sentence i have a question for you on transgender stuff let me begin this by saying the the trans community i hope they know that i'm your greatest ally much to the chagrin of my audience number two everything i'm going to say about this topic is with respect and good intentions so if you if you feel that i say something next that sounds disrespectful just know that that's not my intention okay but i was watching the story of uh elliot page who used to be known as ellen page and when she was defining herself as female she's a well-known successful actress but is now elliott page and has transitioned and here's a question i ask and and i and i say this again i'm asking this question with genuine respectful curiosity okay so let's keep it at that level this is respectful curiosity and i think it's a fair question and it goes like this i don't know the point of transitioning do you can somebody explain it to me like like why would you do it now i understand that people think they identify with a different gender in in their mind i get that but why would you why would you go through the process because here then let me let me drill down on that a little bit so the picture of elliot page on time magazine shows elliot justin of course you know boy or man attire um she looks about or i'm sorry see there i did it so that that's accidental so i accidentally used the wrong pronoun but because you know that i'm not doing anything disrespectfully just a mistake okay um here's my question in a world in which you can fall in love with and marry anybody you want men can marry men women can wear a woman anybody can do anything in a world in which you could wear any clothing you want right you can put it on any clothes you want why do you have to do anything else and this is genuine curiosity and i feel like there's some big part of this whole topic that i don't understand so if there's somebody in the transgender community who can explain to me what is the the extra gain you get by the the physical operations so let's say elliott page i don't know what elliot page's sexual preference is because that gets all confusing right so let's say but let's say that elliot page liked women i don't know if that's true but let's just say that's true why wouldn't elia page be able to date that same woman without having done any of the transition you know assuming that that that woman wants to be dated right so if you can date anybody you want you can wear anything you want what is the point i actually don't understand the point um and i'm just going to look at your look at your messages and see if any of you know the point yeah so somebody's saying you feel trapped in the wrong body but does the operation help that i don't know does it and what does it mean to be trapped in the wrong body what makes it wrong well let me drill down on that a little bit and again if you're just joining this we're trying to be respectful and the intention is just to learn something here that i really genuinely am confused about because i think if you understand any group better your ability to accept them and you know not not to be biased is just easier so just understanding is a big deal somebody says there's a psych physical alignment problem but here's my problem if we agree there's no one right way to look how could you be mismatched with your look and your brain so i guess that's let me say that again if we've accepted the point and i do i accept this point they can look any way you want doesn't matter what your gender is or your preference you can look any way you want get any haircut you want wear any clothing you want um but you actually have to is there a is there a uh a mental i'll just say a situation i don't want to put a judgment on it is there a mental situation where there's someone who was born biologically female where they really need to have a penis other than it would be a defining characteristic of being a male gender but does the the penis specifically like if you feel is this what it is do you feel like it should be there and it's not there you look down and there's no penis and then you need to fix that to feel like you're you're you're all whole is that what it is yeah so i don't really understand it i don't understand it on a logical level but i want to i would actually like to understand it all right we'll get off that um did you see that video of the biden and the microphones it looks like there's some weird illusion where it looks like his hand goes past the microphone or through it or something you have to see that video it's kind of freaky but i think it's just that just the way the cameras are set up there's nothing to it except that the microphones were on long sticks so that the the reporters were actually pretty far away from biden but you couldn't tell because you just saw the tops of the microphones you didn't know they were on long sticks and then when biden's talking at one point his hand goes past the microphone which you think would be impossible if the reporter were holding it so that's the how the illusion happens but since you don't know they're on sticks biden just walked up to the microphones and at one point his hand went past them i think that's all it was all right all right um so there was a claim that columbia university was holding a separate student graduation ceremonies by income and sexual orientation that turned out to be fake news partially fake news because everybody goes to the the same graduation at columbia university but voluntarily they can have their own separa in addition to graduations voluntarily of you know a group by ethnicity or income or whatever and i'm thinking to myself how is that good how how does let's say you're uh you're a black graduate or anything else like i suppose there's probably an asian american group etc and you've graduated you graduated with everybody and then you want to hold your own separate graduation with people who have your ethnic similarity how does that help you really now i could see if you had a party if you had a party with the people who were like you even then that would be a little sketchy but at least you know it doesn't sound as bad as having a graduation ceremony with just people who look like you well yeah it just doesn't seem like there's anything good that could come out of that but a party yeah party's a party um rasmussen is reporting that 75 percent of uh i think likely voters i always forget to ask which group they're looking at but i think 75 percent of people polled were supportive of voter id laws as you might suspect yes 89 percent of them are republicans but even 60 percent of democrats and 77 percent of uh of uh unidentified want voter id laws now at the same time there's 75 percent of the public want voter id laws and even a solid majority of democrats the senate's working on this hr1 bill that if it passes would quote force states to allow anyone who to vote who simply signs a form saying they are who they claim they are and i'm thinking to myself has there ever been a cleaner example of the government not being on your side now i do approve of a government doing things that the public does not like right but the case to do that is when the government has more information or is smarter than the public in those cases yeah i'm glad we have a republic so then the elected people make our smart decisions so dumb people like us don't have to but in the case of voter id laws i feel confident that every citizen understands the entire topic there's nothing complicated about should you show your id to vote like everybody gets that there's no context missing we all get that and if 75 percent of the public who gets that completely understands the topic and doesn't want it to happen and yet your government is doing it to you right in front of you they have left yeah they've left the station at this point they're not even pretending to be on your side like usually they at least have an argument well you know we're definitely on your side it's good for my re-election but mostly it's good for you yeah it's coincidentally good for me as a politician but in this case they're not even pretending not even pretending if i were president let me tell you how i would handle this if i ever saw a topic that had 75 support i would support it assuming that the public understood the topic as easily as they do this and even if i disagreed if i were in the 25 i would say oh i'm the president of the united states 75 of the people understand this topic and want it this way i'm going to support them hard 75 it's not even close right a lot of our issues are sort of close to 50 50.
but this isn't close when you get to 75 and and both both parties are dominantly in favor of it this is not a close call and we just allow this i mean this could just happen because we don't care about it right so to the extent that the news doesn't make this a big issue it's just sort of a little little highlight at one point we'll just let this go through this is actually going to happen right in front of us well 75 percent of the public doesn't want it to happen amazing and it's only good for the politicians the the democrats apparently so that is my show for the day if you didn't see yesterday i did a special live stream on youtube in which i was showing you the entire writing process of writing a joke for a comic strip and i think that even if you're not interested in writing comic strips you would be very interested if you have any interest in writing just writing in general i think you'd be interested in seeing the thought process from beginning to end so go check that out it's on youtube and um all right oh it looks like there's some reporting about the atlanta massage parlor things and it says the uh the the alleged perp had a sexual addiction and uh so i guess those massage parlors probably were giving happy endings and so he was just a crazy guy with a sex edition it doesn't seem to be racial so the fact that there was no evidence whatsoever that it was racially motivated turns out it was not racially motivated exactly like we assumed all right um and if you haven't seen my lesson on locals uh the subscription platform my tour through the way to reframe your experience and get better results by reframing the way you think was very well received very well received i'm working on a reframe now and i'm closing in on it but i don't have it yet and the reframe is to fix the problem that so many people have which is you care about criticism and when if you think somebody's thinking poorly of you in any sense it really really affects you now that is a i would call that a maybe a i'm not sure it's a flaw because it's built into all of us it's more natural but there but you could find a hack to reduce it so i'm working on a few ways to reframe how you think about yourself in the world to deal with the fact that you're you're being affected by criticism more than you want to be and uh i'm getting close to that and i'll give a i'll give a micro lesson on that when i have it all right that's all for now and i will talk to you later um hack your imposter syndrome you know the the imposter syndrome is where uh you think you're bluffing because and everybody else is smart but you're just faking it and i'll tell you how um how i dealt with that the way to deal with your impostor syndrome is to know that everybody is faking it and once i learned that everyone is faking it all the time and the people that you think are in control and they're confident and they really know what they're doing they don't they're just better at faking or they may have fake they may have convinced themselves or something but once you realize everybody's faking pretty much everybody's faking all the time you don't have impostor syndrome you have human being syndrome you're just a human we're all faking all the time some are just better at it all right um what happens when you believe your own bs that's everybody everybody believes their own bs that's why we live in subjective realities you believe yours i believe mine what would we do to stop the inevitable trial riots well probably nothing i feel as if the riots are just baked in because the people who do the riots don't really need a reason so they're going to be looking for a reason so i don't think you could remove the reason because they're looking for it they're going to find it no matter what you do but you might be able to minimize it a little bit you could take some off the top perhaps if you took 20 of the energy out of it that could be a big difference um so and here's the way i think that could happen if there's enough reporting about the george floyd situation and there are enough experts who say yeah it was the fentanyl that got him and it can be demonstrated that the knee hold is unlikely to have been much of a difference maybe some of the energy can be taken out of it but i don't think so um zhu bai deng will rest up i don't know what that's about all right just looking at your comments and i think we're done here and i will talk to you tomorrow
hey everybody
this is the place to be the place where
all the simultaneous
sipping originated yeah it's a big
phenomenon around the world
i know you're hearing about it
everywhere but
this is where it started and it's the
best thing that ever happened
in the history of civilization it's
called the simultaneous sip
what do you need to contribute not a lot
all you need is a copper marker glass to
tank your telescope canteen drug flash
vessel of any kind
fill it with your favorite liquid i like
coffee and join me now for the
unparalleled pleasure the dopamine
didn't say the thing that makes
everything better it's called disabled
sip and it's happening now go
somebody says my racing stripes make me
look fast
i think that's true i think it also
makes me look like
if i cover up the bottom parts it looks
looks like i'm some kind of military
general
all right that doesn't work let's talk
about
all of the news
uh mike lindell of mypillow fame
is countersuing dominion
uh election software company now as you
know dominion
is suing mike lindell for claiming that
their machines
had any issues in the election mike
lindell is suing them back
now and it says here in the report i saw
that
alan dershowitz has joined the legal
team
so alan dershowitz is on mike lindell's
legal team how would you like to be
dominion software
or dominion whatever the name is called
how would you like to be dominion and
find out that the guy you're counter
suing
is the guy you're suing is counter suing
and he just got ellen dershowitz on his
team
how do you feel about that
i don't think that i don't think anybody
ever had worse
news dominion we've got some bad news
and some worst news what's the bad news
well you're probably going to lose
billions in revenue
because michael and dell the pillow guy
is going to tear you apart in public
well that's bad that's really bad
what's the worst news when he counter
sues you he's going to have alan
dershowitz on his team
it's a little worse it's a little worse
now of course people are assuming that
the real play here
because mike lindell said it directly is
that
if he gets sued then he can
he has the right to dig into some of
their
their details their operation so he has
the right of discovery
he can ask questions and they have to
answer them
and the thinking is that if they do have
anything to
hide or anything that they might just
not want anybody to know
it doesn't have to be a crime just
something they don't want people to know
that they'll probably back down
so if you had to predict where this goes
my guess is that
lindell will ask for information that
dominion
doesn't want to give them and that will
be the end of it
because if they don't provide it they're
either going to have to drop the lawsuit
or provide it
those are the two choices and i don't
see how they could possibly provide
everything that dershowitz and lindell
and the team
are going to ask for because you know
that dershowitz and his lawyers are
going to be smart enough
to know to ask for things that they
won't give them
but that's the end of it am i wrong
let me tell you a story about a lawsuit
i was involved with
some years ago in which
i can't give you the details because the
part of the court
the court settlement is you agree not to
talk about the details so i'll say
there's a
very large entity a really
large company that once
sued me and i said quite reasonably
oh well if you have a claim that
something bad happened because of it was
one of my businesses my restaurant
if you have a claim that's based on my
restaurant just show us what the
evidence is
and just show us the evidence and we'll
take that under consideration and they
wouldn't
they said no our our contract states
that we don't have to send you
so show you evidence we can just claim
that you did something bad
and then start draining your bank
account
and i thought well there's no way my
contract says that
but it did the contract actually said
they could drain your bank account
just because they said they had a reason
they don't have to show you the evidence
so they sue me and
i you know we i decided
to take it to court it would have been
easy to settle i could have just
paid the i don't know 90 000 or whatever
it was that they were trying to get from
me
so i could have settled but it kind of
made me mad
because there was no evidence of any
anything the their claim just they
didn't show us any evidence
and i correctly uh estimated that if i
took it to court
which i did or at least i took it to
negotiations it didn't actually make it
to court i correctly
assumed that if i said yeah let's go to
court
and you're going to have to show me the
evidence that shows
what the problem is here that they would
uh they would drop it
and they did so the moment i threatened
i'll show you mine if you showed me
yours it was over
that was it and i correctly estimated
that that would be the
you know the outcome now i'm no lawyer
but i live in the real world and i do
know that real people like to hide their
secrets
and if those are in play they're going
to change their mind
so there's that we'll watch that
um there's also a related story sort of
related
let's see if i can find this about
is it michigan where the courts have
decided that
michigan did not handle the election
correctly
and that their changes to the um voter
the mail-in votes were illegal
we're illegal now that won't change any
of the outcome right
because biden's the president that's not
going to change
but every day that goes by
we're going to find out a little bit
more about what happened in the past
and i'm going to say something that will
probably get me kicked off of all social
media
i don't know but i'm going to try it out
so here will be an edge case
i predict now let me say it as clearly
as possible so i want to i want to say
this
in the uh in a way that there's no
falsehoods
but i'll probably also get kicked off of
social media so i'm not going to say
anything that is false okay
first true statement biden is president
the the system elected him he's been
certified he's president
that's it biden won
the presidency in 2020.
now here's my prediction now the
prediction
is not based on any false claims
right so there will be no allegation of
any claims
it's just a prediction that we will
someday learn
that trump won the election at least in
terms of the votes
or somewhat similarly that the election
was that the election
was not what we thought it was
which ends up being the same you don't
know who won
so i'm sure i would get kicked off of
social media
if i said i know this to be true
but i don't i'm simply sticking
with my prediction that if you wait long
enough and it could be 10 years
right it could be 10 years that somebody
will come forward
sometime in the next 10 years and say
you know here's something you didn't
know
so um when i was talking about the uh
the accuracy of my predictions i was
noting that
how accurate my predictions are depends
how long you wait
if you don't wait very long they don't
look so good but if you keep waiting
they might look better so here's the
question
can i say something that's a pure
opinion
while also saying it's not backed by a
specific fact
but it is the accumulated uh let's say
accumulated
um instinct that's the wrong word but
getting close to it it's sort of the
accumulated instinct of life
meaning that sometimes you can smell
things
before you can see them and i think a
lot of people have the same
same feeling that i smell something with
this election but i can't see it
so we'll see take for example
just the michigan story i'm not sure i
have all the facts of that right
but if it turned out that just the
michigan story stands and
the michigan story is that there was
some
something illegal happened in the state
now again it doesn't matter to the
outcome
the outcome is done right biden is
president
nothing's going to change that except
his health i suppose
but won't history record that the vote
in michigan
was not the way it should have gone if
everything
had been done legally that's just a true
statement right
it would is there any doubt about the
statement i just made
the history will record based on what we
know now
because the court has actually ruled
that what was done there was not
legally copacetic so we now have
michigan that's put into the
the unknown category unknown what would
have happened
if they had handled everything the way
the the courts say they should have
that's one now what will happen um in
georgia
if we continue waiting and the uh chain
of custody information
never never comes forward
because that's the situation now so
there are these documents that show
where the ballots were and who
controlled them so you have this chain
of custody
so that's been asked for but they're not
providing it now it's been a few weeks
what if it's never provided how will
history judge
the georgia outcome if they don't
provide the most
basic visibility
that you would have which is the chain
of custody well i think
that takes georgia and moves it into the
maybe box
again the election's over
biden's president nothing's going to
change it
but i think michigan and georgia just
got moved into the maybe category
now we've got this mike lindell thing
what's going to happen when mike lindell
asks for discovery and transparency
and probably even the the source code
right don't you think mike lindell will
be able to ask for the source code
how the hell are they going to give them
the source code i mean really
no company gives you the source code
you have to assume it's proprietary at
some level right
so i think we're going to move into a
point where
we went from those voting machines were
absolutely definitely
fine according to the you know official
the official statement about it
no evidence of any fraud i don't believe
that
here's my prediction i don't believe
mike lindell will produce any evidence
of fraud
by dominion all right here hear that as
clearly as possible
i predict he won't find any evidence of
fraud from dominion
because the discovery will
not go that far there's no way that
they can open their kimono and show them
everything that he's going to ask for
they have to settle they have to
and i think this is probably why
dershowitz is on the case this is just a
guess
right i shouldn't i shouldn't speculate
about what
uh what dershowitz would do because he's
operating at a different level than i am
but i feel as though
he probably sees what i see and and lots
more
of course i think he sees what i see
that there's no way the dominion can
actually
press this case because they can't open
the kimono they can't show you the
source code
and if they don't if they don't
what are you going to do with dominion
you're going to move it
into the maybe category so
in mere months it looks like michigan
maybe georgia and maybe the dominion
system
will have been moved from the these are
definitely okay
to the we got big questions and one of
them definitely would have been
different michigan
we don't know different in what way but
different
and two of the other ones are in the
maybe category
so that's going to happen within a year
so within a year we're going to go from
definitely we had an election we can
trust
to well there's no way to know what
happens in 10 years
right i'm going to keep my prediction in
10 years
history will by consensus
agree that trump won the election in
2020.
now if you never see me again
on social media because i think that's
the rule now right
simply saying what i just said should
get me kicked off of social media
shouldn't it
those are the rules but i haven't said
anything fraudulent
and you need people like me to press the
boundary here right
so every time somebody gets taken down
for their uh anti-wokeness
you it's everything's just going to keep
going that way
until somebody pushes back so in some
ways
in some ways um i'm i'm giving you an
edge case intentionally i'm pushing the
boundary beyond where
i know the boundary wants to be i'm just
pushing it back a little bit
that's all so may never see you again
there's a story about uh some tragedy
and
i guess a couple of atlanta massage
parlors some guy with a gun came in and
uh shot a bunch of people two different
massage parlors
and of course it's being reported as
anti-asian-american violence
but where in the story is evidence to
support the claims that this might have
to do with a racial motive
right there's no there's no evidence of
a racial motive
and yet that's the lead story why would
you put
a racial story into a story that doesn't
have any any indication
now it might end up that that's exactly
what it was in which case
you know that adds a horror on top of a
horror
but this whole anti-asian american
violence thing
is a little dicey isn't it no i'm not
saying that there isn't
because i'm sure there is i'm sure the
statistics are right and
that's a cause for uh great concern so
i'm not minimizing the problem
right so hear me hear me clearly i'm not
minimizing the problem i'm just saying
i i don't feel like the way we're
reporting this has any connection to
reality
so we'll see um
i've never before said i had a favorite
public
feud you know when celebrities get after
each other and
famous people are carping at each other
they're usually fun for a while
but you know i wouldn't say that i had
one that i could pick out that's just
the best one
until today my new
favorite public feud is cardi b
and candace owens now if you're not up
to date on this
the two of them have had some words on
social media
and candace owens has ripped into cardi
b
for her uh you know allegedly lewd
performances
and then cardi b at one point tweeted a
a horribly untrue rumor about candace
and her
family i won't even repeat it but just
whatever you think on a scale of one to
ten
whatever is the worst false rumor you
might hear
it was a ten all right and it wasn't
really a rumor that sounded like it
could have been that true i mean it just
sounded like it was fake
on the surface and it was so
then uh so can just goes back
at her and uh blah blah so cardi b's
uh last rejoinder if you will
was one of the best things i've ever
seen
in terms of persuasion all right so you
got these two
two celebrity type people and they're
they're going at it in public
and you figure that when one escalates
the other is going to match it or esc a
little bit more and it's just going to
get worse and worse
but instead cardi b
giving giving scott a little lesson on
why she's famous
because let me you know i've told you
before i'm not really a music guy
i don't really follow music so i don't
even know
a lot about the most popular
entertainers so i didn't know much about
cardi b
you didn't i couldn't except for wap
i couldn't even name a title of a song
and i don't know even what it sounds
like
so her most famous song i've never heard
that i know of
but and so i was thinking to myself
does she really have all this talent
because i was wondering where where's
all this talent
because i wasn't seeing it you know in
little clips and stuff i saw of cardi b
it wasn't jumping out at me what is it
that makes her famous
like i couldn't figure out why is she
famous it just
it just wasn't clicking with me and then
i saw her latest tweet
to candace and this was the moment i
said
oh i get it now i totally get it now
so here's what she did she showed a
video of i guess cardi b
doing a uh a big old tongue kiss
on some black woman who was not candace
but car
but cardi b uh tweet this
to candace she says me you
on a beach while debating about trump
and biden think about it
republicans go watch up i guess that's
her music video
to see what this is about
so so cardi b tweets a picture of her
making out
with a black woman and and sends it to
candace saying me and you
on a beach
now come on in the history of all
public feuds is this not the best
response you've ever seen yeah i get it
that's gross and you know
there's some of you were turned off by
the you know the sexual part of it i get
that
i get that you you can have that opinion
but
the fact that she took this thing that
was a feud
and turned it perfectly into a promotion
for her music video
and just took the argument into this
whole weird place
it's just one of the most awesome things
i've ever seen
yeah it's it's comedy it's persuasion
it's promotion
so so in this this one uh
this one little uh anecdote of this just
one tweet
suddenly you could see everything that
makes cardi b who she is
because let me say it this way
you couldn't have written this tweet
the average person can't do this
so whatever there is about her you know
whatever it is that made her famous
she has something there's something
there
there's a type of intelligence that
comes out with this
that probably you know pervaded all of
her other work
and i think that's what people see
there's like a she's a she's weirdly
intelligent
i i feel like that's that's what i'm
seeing here
am i wrong yeah i'm saying in the
comments everybody wants to
judge her by her you know she was a
stripper and she's
and she's raunchy and stuff so you want
to judge her by all that stuff
but she is in the industry where all
that stuff works right
and i don't know she's not dumb
that's for sure over at breitbart oh
here's
uh pierce morgan so you all know the
pierce morgan story he walked off of
good morning
britain his popular show he just walked
off
when um his opinions about
megan markel were not agreed with by his
staff
and since then good morning britain has
lost a third of his viewers how do you
win harder than that
because all pierce morrigan asked is
that he would be allowed
to present his telev his opinion on an
opinion show
that's all he asked pierce morgan
only asked that he'd be allowed
to present his honest opinion on an
opinion show of which he is the host
come on is that the most reasonable
thing that anybody ever asked
i'd like to put my honest opinion on
this honest opinion show
most reasonable thing anybody harassed
and apparently that was a problem
so he walks off and it costs them a
third of their business
which probably puts them underwater i
don't know if you could lose a third of
your audience
and stay profitable in today's world i
don't know
um biden had an interview with uh
stepanopolis
on abc because apparently that's a safe
space
so biden i guess knows that
stephanopoulos will
ask the right questions and they'll edit
out anything that looks too bad
so this is a little safe space but here
are some of the dumb things that biden
said
biden denied that he should have
anticipated the surge in migrants
based on his softening of of the rules
really i hope that was a lie
i've never hoped a politician was lying
more than i hope it now you didn't
anticipate that
the part where you said will make it
really easy to come across the border
and you didn't anticipate that that
would cause some
additional people to come across the
border
i hope he's lying because if he's a liar
well then he's just a politician but if
he really didn't anticipate it
we've got a big problem we've got a big
problem because you know who did
anticipate it
everyone else in the world
all seven point whatever billion of us
every one of us anticipated this
but joe biden didn't he's the only one
all right uh then he said uh he was
defending the idea that people were
coming here because of his policies and
he goes
the idea that joe biden said come
because i heard the other day that
they're coming because they know i'm a
nice guy
biden said here's the deal they're not
and i thought to myself that if that
works
as a defense i'm gonna use it for
everything
you know if somebody comes upon me and
there's there's somebody who's been
murdered
and i'm covered with blood and i've got
the murder weapon in my hand
and they play the video back after i get
arrested and they say well there you are
on video
we can watch you murdering this person
there's blood all over you
their dna you've got the murder weapon
in your hand
what do you say here's what i'd say
i'd say come on man here's the deal
it didn't happen and then the police
would say
oh oh well i'm sorry
we saw this blood all over you and then
you had the murder weapon and we've got
the video
of you committing the crime so we just
leapt to this conclusion
that you were guilty but then when you
offered your defense
here's the deal i didn't do it
well we're persuaded here's the deal
never happened um
meanwhile biden's job approval stays
high i think rasmussen is going to
going to give you some numbers that will
make your head fall off
that biden's approval is so good now
it's not an accident that keeping him
out of the headlines makes it more
popular is it
we all agree with that right there's
nobody who would disagree
with the statement that the more you
keep biden out of the news
the more he's popular right because the
news is about your flaws
the news is rarely about the good thing
you did it's about your flaws
so the less news there is and it might
be that biden has discovered something
that all future presidents will use
because you don't have to be biden
to be more popular by not being on tv
i feel the more that you show yourself
the less popular you are
um and i'm wondering what will happen if
biden goes into a coma
i feel as if his popularity would reach
levels that we've never seen before
like if he actually went into actual
coma i'm not hoping that happens of
course
but if he did i think he would hit like
80
approval ratings and if he were to
actually
die in office which again we hope that
doesn't happen nobody wants anything bad
to happen to anybody
but i think that would be his highest
popularity he could reach 100
because if he actually were dead i think
republicans would be in favor of him at
that point
and then democrats would he could
actually reach a hundred percent
approval
just before his final breath so there's
that
biden also said in the stepanopolis
interview that uh putin would pay a
price
he told uh stephanopoulos because quote
we had a long talk he and i meaning
putin biden
i know him relatively well and the
conversation started off i said i know
you and you know me
if i established this occurred then be
prepared
this occurred meaning interference in
the election when pushed on what the
consequences would be the president said
the price he's going to pay well you'll
see shortly
so take that putin
putin if you've done this i'm going to
do something to you
and i'm not going to tell you what so be
afraid
um at the same time he was making these
comments
like literally just about the same time
his own biden's own director of national
intelligence was saying that
they've looked into it and and there's
no evidence that russia
targeted the election this year no
evidence of it
do you believe that do you believe that
uh russia targeted our election
in every prior election which probably
they did but not this one
not this one when biden wins
there was no putin in there at all
suppose trump had won do you think
they'd still be saying
there's no putin interference doesn't
seem like it
all right but apparently
our intelligence agency is saying that
russia did
authorize a persistent effort
in uh just influence
so russia is doing an influence campaign
but
not specifically on the election i guess
so
wouldn't that be like every country
isn't every country doing an influence
campaign on every other country the big
ones anyway
um so here's the other news biden was
asked to
tell the the migrants or the immigrants
to don't come and here's what he said he
said don't come
said it directly so that's good right
because biden looked right into the
camera talking to the
potential migrants who might come across
the border and he said
in direct words don't come
and then he added stay in your towns
pretty good that's why you wanted of him
right
don't come and stay in your towns it's
very clear very clear
well there's a second part of it where
he talks about how
that the government our government is
setting up more facilities
to handle things when you come oh wait
that's different
he's saying don't come until we have
enough facilities to handle you
efficiently
i didn't see anybody report that did you
i was looking at the news today and i
was looking at biden's comments and i
thought
well this will be the big headline that
he just said
just wait you migrants just wait until
we can handle the volume
and then come on in that's what i read
was i reading between the lines i mean
he didn't say that directly
well no he did say that directly it
looked pretty direct to me
he said don't come yet
because we don't have our operation
efficient
but as soon as we're efficient come on
and come on in oh tucker reported it
last night somebody's saying i didn't
see tucker last night
but i didn't see it on the uh i don't
think i saw it on fox news
page this morning or on cnn how is that
not the biggest news in the country
the biggest news in the country should
be that the president just invited
mexico into the united states
and said the only thing stopping you is
you know we're not efficient enough to
process you but we're working on
it what would be bigger news than that
like what it's the damnedest thing i've
told you this many times but every time
you see an example of it
it shakes you which is
the things that we're told are the news
are not the things that are important
necessarily they're the things that the
news business has decided they want to
report on
it's something they're going to you know
have a theme that goes through the
season you know it's like a
like a story with an arc and everything
but then you see other stories that are
like
gigantically important i mean enormously
important story
but if the news business just decides to
de-emphasize it
it's like it never existed
all right um
what else we got uh so cnn
this was weird on cnn jeff zeleny
who's a senior washington correspondent
wrote an article in which
i almost can't believe this happened he
was basically giving republican
uh governor desantis credit
for being right on how he handled the
coronavirus
this is weird you don't expect it right
so cnn actually has an opinion piece
where they say they're calling out a
republican
governor for getting it right
here's my problem with this
i think we're putting uh
we're we're ascribing intelligence
to luck
here's what i think happened in florida
i think
florida made its decisions on let's say
political philosophical grounds
which is favoring freedom over you know
safety a little bit
and that somebody was going to get lucky
because one of the things we've learned
is that we can't tell
we can't tell if leadership decisions
are making much difference
across the world you know country to
country etc we can't even figure out
what works
because there are places where the same
thing that seems to work in one country
didn't work at all in another
there are places like japan where they
basically hardly did anything about the
the pandemic and it didn't affect them
much we don't know why
and so here was what was going to happen
there are 50 states it is a guarantee
that somebody was going to do well
out of the 50 states compared to the
other states right just
somebody has to be in the top half of
performance
and the people making these decisions
were not making these decisions based on
their superior data
or their superior judgment they were
making the decisions along political
lines somebody
was going to get lucky his name is
desantis he got lucky
because if you tell me that ron desantis
knew that he
knew this was the right path for florida
that's crazy he didn't know
he guessed and all the other states that
had good performance and bad performance
do you know what they did
they guessed they guessed that's it
there were 50 states somebody was going
to guess right
i mean writer than the others because
they were doing different stuff
and they were going to get different
results for reasons that may or may not
have anything to do with the governor
so while the way our system works is
that desantis does get credit
i agree with that by the way so i agree
that our system works best if we
give credit to people who are in charge
and even if they didn't do something
that was their fault
if they're in charge when it happens
they got to pay for it that's just the
way the system has to be
so i do think you you know it's
reasonable to give
desantis and other governors who did
well credit
but realistically realistically
they were the ones who got lucky and if
you don't see it as luck
i feel like you're not analyzing this
right
um jake tapper went pretty hard at
uh governor newsom and uh
he asked basically what were you
thinking about going to the the french
laundry
and here's the thing apparently the
recall
effort went from 50 000 some signatures
to close to 2 million and the big spike
happened after the story about
the governor going to the french laundry
to eat uh
when other people he was asking to be
you know
but well anyway he hit a table with no
masks and lots of people had it so he
got in trouble
now here's my take on that
so it turns out that that was like the
the pivotal moment
that may have taken him out he may still
win re-election
but it was a pivotal moment it was also
the
least important thing he did
it was the least important thing newsom
did
i would say he should be held to account
for the forest fires the
energy problems immigration
covid the economy homeless people
drugs mental health problems
those are all big and he should be held
to account for all of that
stuff do you know what he should not be
held account for
eating at a restaurant that was open
because everybody else that day
who ate at a restaurant that was open
did not break any laws neither did he
now he does take responsibility for
sitting at a table with too many people
without masks from different houses
and that was just a mistake it was a
human mistake
right because let's face it no matter
how much all of us
you know try to follow the rules even if
you're trying you're trying to wear your
mask
you're trying to do everything right can
you say you haven't broken any of those
rules
of course you have a hundred percent of
the public
bends the rules on this coronavirus
restriction stuff
do i care if my governor bent a little
rule on this
not even a little bit so so it looks
like
he might get taken out by the only thing
that wasn't a big deal
all these other things are really big
deals this was the
only thing that was trivial and it'll be
the thing that takes them out
because the news made a big thing about
it and there was a picture so whenever
there's a picture it's worse and
it makes it look like he's the elite
because it's expensive restaurant
etc and there was a lobbyist in there it
was all that stuff
but man in terms of content it was the
least important thing he did
so there's some new news in the george
floyd trial and i swear they should just
cancel this trial
i mean that literally we we have enough
information now
to know that this trial should not be
held and one of the new things that
we've learned
is that apparently george floyd was
arrested
in an identical fashion identical in
some elements
to the the event in which he died
including he was under the influence and
including he was calling for his mother
including he said he couldn't breathe
including he was resisting arrest a
little bit
uh so
i don't know when you see that and
apparently this will be allowed
i think the judge is going to allow the
evidence of his past
his past behavior because once you see
that he called for his mother before
that's the end of it isn't it because
you know just like
the the governor newsom story
all of these other things were the
important things but we get focused on
the french laundry thing because
it's the shiny object with
the george floyd thing the shiny object
that people tend to focus on
is that he called for his mother moments
before he died
now if you're a human being you can't
hear that
without feeling it right i mean you just
feel that
but the moment you learn that that's
just a thing he does when he gets
arrested
it means a completely different thing
now it just means it's the thing he says
when he gets arrested
um i i don't know how this trial could
have any kind of a murder
uh conviction sim cliff sims was noting
on
twitter cliff sims was noting that axios
had uh had this line in a story so this
is a quote from the story in exos
trump and other conservatives have
frequently warned sometimes
inaccurately about foreign terrorists
entering the united states via the
southern border
so that's a sentence and a story by
axios
and as cliff sims points out imagine
writing this line in a story that
literally proves
the warnings were in fact accurate
because the story was about
actual people on the on the terrorist
watch list
who came across the border like it was a
story about
real terrorists coming or at least on
the watch list
coming across the border and then they
have to insert a line
about trump and other conservatives
frequently being
inaccurate about foreign terrorists
entering
via the southern border i mean that's
trying really hard
to make your news friendly to
to biden is it all right
here's the best summary of the pandemic
i've heard so far
it's a big complicated thing right but
uh melissa slusher on twitter
summed it up um with one tweet
and she tweeted i used to cough to cover
up a fart
now i fart to cover up a cough
we're done here i think we're done here
that's the entire pandemic in one
sentence
i have a question for you on transgender
stuff
let me begin this by saying the
the trans community i hope they know
that i'm your greatest ally
much to the chagrin of my audience
number two
everything i'm going to say about this
topic is with respect
and good intentions so if you if you
feel that i say something next
that sounds disrespectful just know that
that's not my intention
okay but i was watching the story of
uh elliot page who
used to be known as ellen page and
when she was defining herself as female
she's a well-known successful actress
but
is now elliott page and has transitioned
and here's a question i ask and and i
and i say this again i'm asking this
question with genuine
respectful curiosity
okay so let's keep it at that level this
is respectful
curiosity and i think it's a fair
question
and it goes like this i don't know the
point
of transitioning do you
can somebody explain it to me like like
why would you do it
now i understand that people think they
identify with a different
gender in in their mind i get that
but why would you why would you go
through the process
because here then let me let me drill
down on that a little bit so the picture
of elliot page on
time magazine shows elliot justin of
course
you know boy or man attire
um she looks about or i'm sorry
see there i did it so that that's
accidental
so i accidentally used the wrong pronoun
but because you know that i'm not doing
anything disrespectfully
just a mistake okay
um here's my question in a world in
which you can fall in love with and
marry
anybody you want men can marry men
women can wear a woman anybody can do
anything
in a world in which you could wear any
clothing you want
right you can put it on any clothes you
want
why do you have to do anything else
and this is genuine curiosity and i feel
like there's some big part of this whole
topic that i don't understand so if
there's somebody in the transgender
community who can explain to me
what is the the extra gain you get
by the the physical operations so
let's say elliott page i don't know what
elliot page's sexual preference is
because that gets all confusing right so
let's say but let's say that
elliot page liked women
i don't know if that's true but let's
just say that's true
why wouldn't elia page be able to date
that same woman
without having done any of the
transition you know assuming that that
that woman wants to be dated right so
if you can date anybody you want you can
wear anything you want
what is the point i actually don't
understand the point
um and i'm just going to look at your
look at your messages and see if any of
you know the point
yeah so somebody's saying you feel
trapped in the wrong body
but does the operation help that
i don't know does it and what does it
mean to be trapped in the wrong body
what makes it wrong well let me drill
down on that a little bit and again if
you're just joining this we're trying to
be respectful
and the intention is just to learn
something here that i really
genuinely am confused about because i
think if you understand
any group better your ability to accept
them
and you know not not to be biased is
just easier so just understanding is a
big deal
somebody says there's a psych physical
alignment problem
but here's my problem if we agree
there's no one right way to look
how could you be mismatched with your
look and your brain
so i guess that's let me say that again
if we've accepted the point
and i do i accept this point they can
look any way you want
doesn't matter what your gender is or
your preference you can look any way you
want get any haircut you want
wear any clothing you want um but you
actually have to
is there a is there a uh a
mental i'll just say a situation i don't
want to put a judgment on it
is there a mental situation where
there's someone who was born
biologically female
where they really need to have a penis
other than
it would be a defining characteristic of
being a male gender
but does the the penis specifically
like if you feel is this what it is do
you feel like it should be there and
it's not there
you look down and there's no penis and
then you need to
fix that to feel like you're you're
you're all whole
is that what it is yeah so i don't
really understand it i don't understand
it on a logical level
but i want to i would actually like to
understand it
all right we'll get off that um
did you see that video of the biden and
the microphones
it looks like there's some weird
illusion where it looks like his hand
goes past the microphone
or through it or something you have to
see that video it's kind of freaky but i
think it's just that
just the way the cameras are set up
there's nothing to it except that the
microphones were on long sticks
so that the the reporters were actually
pretty far away from biden but you
couldn't tell because you just saw the
tops of the microphones
you didn't know they were on long sticks
and then when biden's talking
at one point his hand goes past the
microphone which you think would be
impossible
if the reporter were holding it so
that's the how the illusion happens
but since you don't know they're on
sticks biden just walked up to the
microphones and at one point his hand
went past them i think that's all it was
all right all right um
so there was a claim that columbia
university was holding a
separate student graduation ceremonies
by income and sexual orientation that
turned out to be fake news
partially fake news because everybody
goes to the the same
graduation at columbia university
but voluntarily they can have their own
separa in addition to
graduations voluntarily of you know
a group by ethnicity or income or
whatever and i'm thinking to myself
how is that good how
how does let's say you're uh you're a
black
graduate or anything else like i suppose
there's probably an asian american
group etc and you've graduated
you graduated with everybody and then
you want to hold your own separate
graduation with people who have your
ethnic
similarity how does that help you
really now i could see if you had a
party
if you had a party with the people who
were like you
even then that would be a little sketchy
but at least
you know it doesn't sound as bad as
having a graduation ceremony with just
people who look like you
well yeah it just doesn't seem like
there's anything good that could come
out of that
but a party yeah party's a party
um rasmussen is reporting that 75
percent of
uh i think likely voters i always forget
to ask
which group they're looking at but i
think 75 percent of people polled
were supportive of voter id laws as you
might suspect
yes 89 percent of them are republicans
but even
60 percent of democrats and 77 percent
of
uh of uh unidentified want voter id laws
now at the same time there's 75 percent
of the public
want voter id laws and even a solid
majority of democrats
the senate's working on this hr1 bill
that if it passes
would quote force states to allow anyone
who
to vote who simply signs a form saying
they are who they claim they are
and i'm thinking to myself has there
ever been a cleaner example
of the government not being on your side
now i do approve of a government doing
things that the public
does not like right but
the case to do that is when the
government has more information
or is smarter than the public
in those cases yeah i'm glad we have a
republic
so then the elected people make our
smart decisions so dumb people like us
don't
have to but in the case of voter id laws
i feel confident that every citizen
understands the entire topic
there's nothing complicated about should
you show your id
to vote like everybody gets that there's
no context
missing we all get that
and if 75 percent of the public who
gets that completely understands the
topic
and doesn't want it to happen and yet
your government is doing it to you right
in front of you
they have left yeah they've left the
station
at this point they're not even
pretending to be on your side
like usually they at least have an
argument well you know we're definitely
on your side it's good for my
re-election
but mostly it's good for you yeah it's
coincidentally good for me as a
politician
but in this case they're not even
pretending
not even pretending if i were president
let me tell you how i would handle this
if i ever saw a topic that had 75
support i would support it
assuming that the public understood the
topic as easily as they do this
and even if i disagreed if i were in the
25
i would say oh i'm the president of the
united states 75
of the people understand this topic and
want it this way i'm going to support
them hard
75 it's not even close right a lot of
our issues are sort of
close to 50 50. but this isn't close
when you get to 75 and and both
both parties are dominantly in favor of
it
this is not a close call
and we just allow this i mean this could
just happen
because we don't care about it right so
to the extent that the news
doesn't make this a big issue it's just
sort of a little
little highlight at one point we'll just
let this go through
this is actually going to happen right
in front of us
well 75 percent of the public doesn't
want it to happen
amazing and it's only good for the
politicians the
the democrats apparently so that is my
show for the day if you didn't see
yesterday i did a special live stream
on youtube in which i was
showing you the entire writing process
of writing a joke
for a comic strip and i think that even
if you're not interested
in writing comic strips you would be
very interested if you have any interest
in
writing just writing in general i think
you'd be interested in seeing the
thought process from beginning to end
so go check that out it's on youtube and
um all right
oh it looks like there's some reporting
about the atlanta
massage parlor things and it says the uh
the the alleged perp had a sexual
addiction
and uh so i guess those massage parlors
probably were giving happy endings
and so he was just a crazy guy with a
sex edition it doesn't seem to be
racial so the fact that there was
no evidence whatsoever that it was
racially motivated
turns out it was not racially motivated
exactly like we assumed all right um
and if you haven't seen my lesson on
locals uh the subscription platform
my tour through the way to reframe your
experience
and get better results by reframing the
way you think
was very well received very well
received
i'm working on a reframe now
and i'm closing in on it but i don't
have it yet
and the reframe is to fix the problem
that so many people have
which is you care about criticism and
when if you think somebody's thinking
poorly of you in any sense
it really really affects you
now that is a i would call that a
maybe a i'm not sure it's a flaw because
it's built into all of us it's more
natural
but there but you could find a hack
to reduce it so i'm working on a few
ways to reframe how you think about
yourself in the world
to deal with the fact that you're you're
being affected by
criticism more than you want to be and
uh i'm getting close to that and i'll
give a i'll give a micro lesson on that
when i have it all right that's all for
now and i will talk to you
later
um hack your imposter syndrome
you know the the imposter syndrome is
where uh you think you're bluffing
because
and everybody else is smart but you're
just faking it and i'll tell you how
um how i dealt with that
the way to deal with your impostor
syndrome
is to know that everybody is faking it
and once i learned that everyone is
faking it all the time
and the people that you think are in
control and they're confident and
they really know what they're doing they
don't they're just better at faking
or they may have fake they may have
convinced themselves or something
but once you realize everybody's faking
pretty much everybody's faking all the
time
you don't have impostor syndrome you
have
human being syndrome you're just a human
we're all faking all the time some are
just better at it
all right um what happens when you
believe your own bs
that's everybody everybody believes
their own bs that's why we live in
subjective
realities you believe yours i believe
mine
what would we do to stop the inevitable
trial riots
well probably nothing i feel as if the
riots are just
baked in because the people who do the
riots
don't really need a reason so they're
going to be looking for a reason
so i don't think you could remove the
reason because they're looking for it
they're going to find it no matter what
you do but you might be able to minimize
it
a little bit you could take some off the
top perhaps if you took 20
of the energy out of it that could be a
big difference
um so
and here's the way i think that could
happen if there's enough reporting about
the george floyd situation
and there are enough experts who say
yeah it was the fentanyl that got him
and it can be demonstrated that the knee
hold is unlikely to have been
much of a difference maybe some of the
energy can be taken out of it
but i don't think so
um
zhu bai deng will rest up i don't know
what that's about
all right just looking at your comments
and i think we're done here
and i will talk to you tomorrow
