View segment →Good morning everybody, and welcome to the highlight of civilization, the best thing that ever happened to you and anybody you'd know. And if you'd like to take your experience to levels that nobody's ever seen before in the known universe, all you need is a mug or glass, a tankard, chalice or stein, a canteen, jug or flask, a vessel of any kind.

If it happens now... go. That's some good stuff.
Well, I know what you all want to talk about: Tucker Carlson and the news and stuff like that. But I'd like to suggest a theme for today's live stream. Do you like it when I have a theme, when all the news coincidentally seems to fit a theme? And here it is. We'll put it together as we go.
But first I would like to do a demonstration of the wisdom of my audience, the smartest audience in the history of the world. Don't answer. Don't answer the question before I ask it. Stop it. Stop it. They're answering the question correctly before I've asked the question. That is unbelievable. Unbelievable. It's actually happening. It's happening on YouTube too now. I am just blown away how smart my audience is.
Well, now that you know the answer, let me ask the question. According to a Rasmussen poll, what percentage of Americans — I think it's likely voters, but something like that — about what percent of these Americans are not concerned about domestic spying? Oh, you all get it right. It's exactly 25 percent. 25 percent. Yeah, it turns out that 74 percent of likely U.S. voters are very concerned or they're concerned, and then half of them, half the people, are very concerned. But 25 percent? Not concerned one bit about the government watching everything you're doing. No problem with that whatsoever.
So pat yourself on the back if you got that one right. I'm going to keep quizzing you until you get one wrong. Yeah, I'm just going to keep asking questions until I can find anything you guys don't know. It's amazing.
All right. Have I ever told you that all news about public figures is fake? Have I ever mentioned that? Like maybe a lot of times, like maybe almost every day? Yeah. So I'm going to tell you a bunch of news about public figures. How much of it should you believe? The answer is that 25? No, the answer is zero. It might be that all of the facts are accurate. So I might be telling you all accurate facts based on the news. But how often are all the accurate facts that you hear in the news a complete and accurate picture of what was going on? Basically never. It's just not even a thing.
And I'm saying this based on my own experience. I've been a public figure and the subject of news for 30 years. It's never true. They'll get maybe your birthday right, and even that's a 50-50.
All right, so let's talk about some famous people. Saw a tweet from Tristan Tate, one of the Tate brothers. And I guess they got brought back into court in Romania and things are getting really sketchy over there. The news is just so incomplete. But would you agree that whatever we're hearing about Romania and the Tate brothers is probably inaccurate? Would you agree? Do you think we know anything about what's going on?
Let me tell you this tweet just to give you a sense of how little we know about what's happening. All right, this is from Tristan Tate. He says they, meaning Romania, they charged me yesterday with, quote, "inciting violence toward others." And then he says, I thought it was a human trafficker. Where's the evidence for that? Uh, oh yeah, that's right. They don't have any, so they make something else up.
All right. Now I'm not going to uncritically assume that the defendant is telling the truth. That would be sort of a stretch. But do you think that Romania is acting in a way that sounds like just a government looking to handle crime? There's something else going on there, isn't there? Don't you feel like there's something else going on? Yeah.
Now, do you think that one way to characterize the Tate brothers' problems is bad behavior toward women? Do you think that's at the heart of it? I mean, there are some other allegations swirling around, but it seems like some kind of behavior regarding women. Not women in general, but the women who may have worked with him in his operation. Now those are the accusations. I'm not saying I know what's true, but those are the accusations. The women are accusing them of being bad men who do bad things.
All right, let's talk about Tucker Carlson. So Tucker Carlson and Fox News are going to part ways. But apparently it's only the show. I guess his contract will probably be paid out. The news is saying so. Tucker Carlson is having a terrible day where he just learned that he gets to spend as much time as he wants with his family and doing whatever he wants. And instead of working, he'll be the subject of everybody's hate. He'll just make 20 million dollars a year from staying home. So bad day for him, huh? Yeah, he must be — I'll bet he's crying himself to sleep. Probably crying himself to sleep.
But given that we know absolutely nothing about this situation, and it wouldn't surprise me if Tucker doesn't know why he was fired either, because it's all what's in people's heads, right? I mean, whatever happened there, we'll never really know. I don't think we'll ever know the real truth. But don't you think it's some kind of average of what people have in their private thoughts? You know, there's some executive who has a private thought about this or that. There's another executive who has a private thought about this or that. There's Murdoch and the Murdoch kids who have different thoughts about different things. And then some decision gets made.
So you're going to see all kinds of reasons for him getting fired, but none of them, none of them individually seem to rise to the level of "really, that's the reason." You're getting that they got rid of the show. But I'll list them all.
So the Daily Beast says, helpfully put together a list, as have other media. And they've got their own ideas. But among the many, many, many things that Tucker Carlson did, he used the c-word a lot. He used the c-word a lot. And there's something about his comments about Sidney Powell. Now it's a little unclear if the c-word was used in conjunction with a conversation about Sidney Powell or if those were just different topics.
Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but when you use the c-word at work, that really angers men. I'll tell you, men really get bad about that. You use that c-word in front of a group of men and nobody else, and those men will be like, "Hey, hey, don't use that word." So I'm just assuming that men complained about his use of that word.
He made disparaging remarks about management. Is there anybody who hasn't never made a disparaging remark about management? Are you kidding me? I'm doing a live stream which is almost entirely people who want to see me, and even most of you have made disparaging remarks about me. I mean, maybe not in that you might like some things too, but everybody makes disparaging remarks about everybody. What's different is that his emails may have been surfaced. Her communications may have been surfaced during that lawsuit. So maybe some of those executives saw some discouraging or disparaging remarks.
The Daily Beast also says it's something about his January 6 conspiracy coverage. Now, do you think that there was anybody at Fox News who said out loud, "The problem is his January 6 coverage"? Maybe. But this sounds like just something that the Daily Beast would make up because they want it to be true. It feels like wishful thinking, doesn't it?
Dan Dan the NPC says, "Scott, you ignorant." That's almost a sentence there. Goodbye. Thanks for joining us.
Let's see what else. Tucker is also accused — a former producer has a lawsuit that says it was a sexist environment. Now he's not being accused of any of MeToo stuff, but rather the way he talked was sexist. And that's the sort of thing that men who work with him probably complained a lot about. So I can imagine Tucker talking to the guys, and the guys are like, "Whoa, whoa, Tucker, that's a little bit sexist. Can you calm that down a little bit? Calm that down. We men don't like that at all."
Let's see what else. Oliver Darcy says it's related to ex-producers' lawsuit for his rampant sexism. And then Oliver Darcy, as he then throws this in, and anti-Semitic behavior. What would be an example of anti-Semitic behavior? Now I would understand if they said he had anti-Semitic words, like words. I can imagine somebody doing that, not necessarily Tucker, but you could imagine a person doing something that's anti-Semitism. But what exactly was his behavior? Do you think that's real? Did he start a little Holocaust of his own? Was his behavior to overtly discriminate against Jewish employees or Jewish guests? Seems like if they had a specific, we might have heard it.
Does that sound like just something that was made up by CNN? Does that sound true? Remember, 100 percent of stories about famous people are not true. Now I only see this stuck in the CNN report. Like I don't even — the Daily Beast, which is no friend of Tucker's, doesn't mention anything about any anti-Semitic thing.
Do you know that when I got canceled, the ADL, somebody from the ADL came after me. They tried to make it anti-Semitic, just kind of tack onto the story a little bit. Well, you know, maybe he did something anti-Semitic too, right? Well, he said some bad things that had nothing to do with us, but we think we could maybe tag on a little bit and get a little juice from this too. So that's probably ridiculous, but it's a serious accusation. So we'll put a pin in it. But if you don't hear this from other entities, it sounds like it's just a CNN little jab.
All right. Profanity-laced remarks. Now there's another thing that men hate. Men hate it when men swear. So a lot of men were mad at Tucker at Fox News, that's for sure.
And maybe something about the advertisers wanting to stay away from Tucker's show. It did seem to be that Tucker did not have the A-level advertisers. And you know, I've always wondered how Fox News even makes money when I see the advertisements that they're on. I think to myself, how many pillows can you sell? Or you know, how much gold do people need? I don't really even understand their business model because when I look at a commercial on one of the major networks, you know it's going to be some big pharma company or something. And you say, oh, I understand that. They make money. That big pharma company is paying them a lot of money to advertise. But Fox advertisers don't look like they even have money. I don't even know where they get their money. I mean, they seem like smaller outfits. I just don't know how they — honestly, I don't know how they make money. Like literally, I don't understand how they do it. So maybe it's that.
Then RFK Jr. said it was something about not long after RFK Jr. was on the show and talking about big pharma. So RFK Jr. thinks it might be something about big pharma pushing back. What do you think of all those reasons? Which ones do you find compelling, knowing that we'll never know?
All right, it could be that the real reason is some reason that's not even in the news, right? So some say big pharma, some say lawsuits, potential lawsuits, some say RFK, some say a combination, some say it's a J6 story, the January 6 stuff, don't want to get sued basically, right? You think it was Kennedy? You think it was Dominion? You think it's J6? Some say insurance.
All right. What if I taught you — let's see if you remember this lesson. What does it mean when everybody has a different opinion of why it happened? What's that mean? What can you conclude from the fact that all the observers have a different opinion? Well, nobody knows. Nobody knows. It might also be unknowable because, like I say, it was a — I'm sure it was a group decision. You know, even though Murdoch could make the decision himself, I'm sure it was a group. You know, they consulted. But I don't think that they each knew what was in the minds of the other. Obviously they said what they wanted to say, but maybe their actual secret thoughts were for themselves, and they just made the argument that was fit for other people to hear.
So I got a feeling it was just a bunch of people who had a bunch of problems. And when the bunch of problems reached the level where it was higher than the benefit, they pulled the trigger. Yeah, it could be the Paul Ryan effect. He's on the board. And it could be that Carlson was too friendly — not friendly, but too beneficial to Trump getting elected. Because if Tucker kept going at the January 6 thing, then that would make Trump stronger.
All right. So I guess we don't know what it was exactly. But I'll tell you the spot that he's in. So the people who have been in that spot was — let's see, Bill O'Reilly was there in that 8 p.m. spot. Megyn Kelly was there, right? And now Tucker was there. Somebody else there: Glenn Beck, right? So Glenn Beck, Megyn Kelly, and O'Reilly, and now Tucker.
So if you had to come up with a name for what you would call that eight o'clock block, I would call it the kill-me block. You know, if you go there, you might as well just kill me, right? Just kill me.
So who did they have as a guest host in the kill-me slot last night? Just guess. Just imagine that you live in the simulation and everything is meant to be a joke. You don't know it, but it's like a physical joke that's being played on us. Who would they put in the kill-me spot? Brian Kilmeade. Duh. Brian Kilmeade was in the kill-me slot. I mean, come on. Come on. Total simulation. I didn't say it was funny. I just said it was a simulation messing with us. You can decide on your own if it's funny. I mean, it's not my joke. It's a simulation.
So let's see. We got all those possibilities. Now the speculation also is what's going to happen to Tucker. Where will he go? And everybody's got their own guesses. Now there are two lines of thinking, and they're both worthy of exploring. One says that Tucker is a singular personality. He's bigger than Fox News. And wherever he goes, if he goes independent, he could become the Joe Rogan of independent people or something like that. But even Joe Rogan depends on advertisers, doesn't he? It's going to be a little bit tough for Tucker to find advertisers because he couldn't find it for a show. So I mean, if Fox News can't get you an advertiser, it'd be hard to scrounge one up on your own. But I suppose he could. I suppose. Good.
Mike Cernovich accurately points out that Tucker is sort of a target for lawsuits. So unless you've got some big organization behind you to pay your legal bills, it's too risky to be in business the way Tucker does business. Maybe. Maybe. But you know, if you're making Joe Rogan kind of money, you can also buy Joe Rogan kind of insurance. And Joe Rogan must be able to buy insurance. I don't know if you can buy 100 million dollars worth of insurance, but maybe he can. I don't know.
So some say he's going to go to the independent route. Now others say — and I think they're not wrong — that Fox News is the star and the eight o'clock spot is the star. And you could put anybody good in there and they would have huge ratings because it's about the platform. That's not wrong. You know, I've been telling you for years that whatever you want to say to complain about Fox News, there's one thing that they do consistently well and have for years, which is their producers really produce. Yeah, see, that looks poorly produced to me, as does MSNBC. But Fox News consistently looks like the producers, the people behind the curtain, are just a higher level of operators. They just seem more effective to me. So they can put on a show. And maybe the show is the star. And they can put in interesting people. And you know, picking the right celebrity or the right personality is part of producing.
So I'm going to say that their eight o'clock hour is going to do fine. What do you think? Now it might take them a while to find their footing, but I think they're going to put in somebody who's as interesting. Yeah, maybe not on day one, but as interesting. And you're going to tune in because it's eight o'clock and the TV's on and you're just going to watch it. That's what happens. When they got rid of — not got rid of, but so in the after Glenn Beck, after O'Reilly, after Megyn Kelly, the ratings just kept going up. So why won't that happen again?
So I'm going to say that from the perspective of Fox News, probably it looks like a pretty good decision. Does that surprise you? If I'm just going to do the business decision, the things that have been listed as the potential problems for Tucker, if any subset of that is true, yeah, that's pretty good reasons. Pretty good reasons. Now, because remember, they would have confidence that they can fill that slot eventually with somebody who makes them just as much money. And they wouldn't have the problems. They wouldn't have the lawsuits. So it's not a terrible business decision. It doesn't mean that it'll work out right. All businesses at risk. So it could be the worst thing they ever did. But if you based it on their history, it was a smart business decision. Which is not to — I'm not trying to not support Tucker. I'm just saying you can see it from a business perspective. And the risk was higher than the return. We'll see.
But how will Tucker do? Do you think that he will go off and start his own thing that's bigger than his old audience? Well, I saw a reporting that says that none of the three people I mentioned did so. Megyn Kelly's doing well but doesn't have the same size audience. Glenn Beck obviously is doing great on the Blaze but probably a smaller audience. And O'Reilly has got his own thing but smaller audience.
So do you think Tucker will go on to just have a nice solid respectable podcast and you know you'll just happily go on? Maybe. Maybe. There are a number of entities that would try to get him. NewsNation, and NewsNation is where Chris Cuomo ended up. So that might make sense. They're independent. You know, they're trying to hit some kind of middle ground reporting. So I don't know. I don't know if anybody has enough money to pay him what he needs. But he could make a fortune as a podcaster, obviously. So he's got lots of options. It's a good place to be.
I would guess that his cancellation, if you want to call it that, feels a lot like mine did, which is everybody else thinks it's worse than it is for you. And you're thinking, oh well, it's a good thing I spent my career up to this point building a bunch of skills. Because if you have a bunch of skills, as Tucker does, he's got a ton of options. He has so many options. I hope nobody's feeling sorry for him. Is anybody feeling sorry for Tucker? I mean, I wish things didn't happen that were bad for anybody. But no, he's doing great. I would guess he's having a good week. If I had to guess, this following week will be more fun and interesting and stimulating for Tucker than the week before. Because he was just sort of going to work and grinding out the same show after show, which had to be a lot of work. And now he's on vacation. He's getting paid the same. The entire world has opened up to him. I don't know. Looks pretty good for him.
Let's talk about AOC talked about deplatforming works and it is important. So AOC is very happy about Tucker being deplatformed. Okay.
Also some people think it's the war in Ukraine because Tucker was anti-war in Ukraine. Some say it's about the presidential election because you want to remove players from the field. I think it's all of those things. I think it's all of those things. It's the whole bag of things. That's why we'll never hear there was one thing. And if you do hear that it was one thing, I wouldn't believe it. It's all the things.
How about Don Lemon? So Don Lemon — now I don't know if this is true, but I'd like to think it's true. Every once in a while you like to think that people do smart things. If CNN was getting ready to fire Don Lemon and then the unexpected news about Tucker Carlson hit, wouldn't the smartest thing for them to do is immediately fire Don Lemon so that his news is tagged on to Tucker's news but it's behind it? Because Tucker is going to get more attention. I think that's what they did. If they didn't do that intentionally, I'll be very disappointed because it would be one of the smartest media things I'd ever seen. I mean, really, really smart. You know, they like to announce bad news on a Friday before a three-day weekend. But this was even better. You know, assuming that they were ready to go, you know, they'd already made it, were almost a decision to fire him. That was just such good timing.
And what was Don Lemon fired for? Well, his diva-like behavior. Do you think his diva-like behavior was bothering the men? The men? Do you think the men were saying that Don Lemon, he's acting so diva-like? I don't know. Based on the reporting, there are a lot of women in the reporting who seemed angry at him. And he was being called misogynist. So Tucker is misogynist? Tucker Carlson was accused of being a misogynist. And now Don Lemon, gay man, is being accused of being a misogynist. Have you seen the pattern yet? Do you know this pattern? Yeah. Working with women is really dangerous. Working with women is going to put you in jail and get you fired. That's where we are basically.
If you're working with women and there are a bunch of them, the odds that one of them will sue you or call you a misogynist is nearly 100 percent. It's nearly 100 percent. So it seems to me that the obvious future of all men in public life is to eventually be sued and fired in disgrace. Because if you took a hundred of any type of person — so this has nothing to do with being women, right? If this sounds anti-woman, just you can remove the woman from the story and replace any demographic. There's a hundred of whatever: Albanians, 100 binaries, 100 cisgender white men, 100 anything. If there are a hundred of them, you're going to have some bad ones. Do you agree? It doesn't matter who it is. A hundred human beings, you're gonna have some bad ones. And if those bad ones have this easy way to take out the men they work with, it's going to happen over time.
So you're seeing the complete inability of men and women to work together for long. Now I'm not going to give men a pass. If you put men in any environment and you wait long enough, they're going to do some bad stuff because, you know, man, I can say that because I am one. We do bad stuff if you wait long enough. So men and women working together just doesn't work. I hate to say it, but in 2023, men and women working together absolutely is too dangerous because some of the women are going to complain. And then that would have to be taken seriously. And probably it is serious. It probably is based on something real.
So let me ask you this. Do you remember when the MeToo movement was everywhere and people were getting MeToo'd all over the place? Did you notice it stopped? What's up with that? How did it stop? Did the guys stop? Big guys? I doubt it. Did the women stop complaining? I actually don't know that. I don't know the answer. But didn't we get one or two MeToo stories per day? And the closest we've come is — wasn't there some NBC executive who admitted he had a consensual affair with somebody at work and then he quit? But even that wasn't scandalous. It wasn't even scandalous. It just seemed like there was an affair and that was against the rules. And that's about the whole story.
Yeah, so that's how I'm going. Somebody says all right. So it might be a little bit racist too, the Don Lemon stuff. Not that Don Lemon was fired because their management was racist. I'm not saying that. So management was not racist. Rather that Don Lemon was being called a racist. And Don Lemon was being called a racist because when he interviewed Vivek Ramaswamy, he said something along the lines of that Ramaswamy couldn't speak about the post-Civil War history because Ramaswamy wasn't black. Is that racist? I guess so. I mean, technically yes. Okay. So Don Lemon was a racist misogynist, as were basically all men in all of our stories.
How about a story that's not okay? We have a story that's not about men and women fighting and the men losing because that seems to be the theme. All right, here's one that just has nothing to do with that. Elizabeth Warren wants to pack the courts so that they can get what they want without having to worry about the majority of the Republicans. So at least that has nothing to do with, you know, women blaming men for stuff, right? Oh yes, except that that's exactly what it is. It's a woman blaming the men on the Supreme Court for abortion decisions basically. Because this is all about abortion. I don't think they were going to pack the court until there was an abortion question. And what about guns? Maybe something about guns. Do you think guns are maybe sort of have a gender split too? Maybe so.
Here we have Elizabeth Warren trying to destroy the most important part of the republic, which is that we don't pack the court. If I could come to Earth as some kind of a god and tell America how the one thing they have to do right — imagine I just appear as an angel. I have come to Earth to tell America you can do almost everything wrong and recover. There's just one thing. I just want to ask you, just do one thing right. Don't pack the court. It's the only thing that could destroy everything. Everything else we can figure out. But if you pack the court, it's over.
Now how does she not know this? I think she puts the goal above the system. I put the system above the goal. I understand that they have a goal of having the Supreme Court make different decisions. I got it. But if it were the other way, I wouldn't want to destroy the courts to get those specific decisions. Especially if it's something that God has said to the state like abortion. But to me this looks like a decision she doesn't like. And so she's going to do something to destroy the entire civilization so those men won't make that bad decision anymore. She wants to destroy — not wants to, but her proposal has a pretty high risk of destroying the republic and maybe all of human civilization as a consequence of that. So that's special.
Biden made his announcement and he's got a theme for his announcement. His theme will be that he will be telling lots of lies about Trump. So that's his sleeve. So he's going to start with the January 6 lies. He's going to go to the soul of the nation. That's the Charlottesville fine people lie. And probably a few other lies. So he's basing his campaign on lying about Trump. I wouldn't expect much more than that actually.
Do you think that the Democrats are feeling trapped? Do you think that Trump can finish off Biden this time if it turns out to be Trump versus Biden, which is sort of looking like — I don't know. I thought Trump was going to make an easy work of Biden the first time, except for the let's say the changes to the voting system because the pandemic just made everything different. But don't you think Trump has more to work with this time? Last time it was all a hypothetical. Well, if you elect Biden, you will do these bad things. But now we've seen Biden. So there's specific things to talk about, right? Energy, blah blah.
Well, many of you think this system is rigged and that Trump can't win. Do you think that the Republicans will do an adequate job of making sure that they're monitoring elections better? I don't. I don't think the Republicans did anything useful. So I wouldn't be surprised if the campaign makes no difference to the outcome. It wouldn't surprise me. Would it surprise you? Don't you think you could see a campaign that clearly indicates one person is going to win but then the other person wins and you wouldn't be surprised? Because we don't believe the system at this point. Yeah.
So I have no evidence that the election system is rigged. I have no evidence of that. I only have a brain which tells me that if anything can be rigged, it will be if it can. And do you think that the election is something that can be rigged? Of course. Of course in some way, big or small. And someday, today or later or yesterday. But yeah, it's a riggable system. So therefore it will be. Just eventually. We don't know if it happened yet or in the future.
All right. So Biden put out his little video. Yeah, he's going to focus on January 6. Isn't that convenient that Tucker Carlson, the primary person who pushed back on January 6, disappears right before Biden announces that he's running and it's all going to be about January 6 stuff? Interesting. That's a lucky coincidence for Biden right there.
All right. Speaking of January 6, in a story that reminds me of it, apparently a bunch of left-wing protesters descended on Montana's capital, disrupting proceedings in the State House of Representatives. This was in support of transgender lawmaker Zoe Zephyr, a Democrat. Now what happens when protesters, they disrupt a government proceeding? What's that called? There's a word for that. Insurrection. Yes, insurrection.
So the next part of the story is that every one of those left-wing protesters were rounded up and put in jail. Do you believe that? No, of course not. You don't put left-wing protesters in jail. What are you, crazy? Are you crazy? Rapes was not there. I know you're going to ask.
Okay. Well, so what else can you even say about that story that you just have to shake your head? Because you live in such a corrupt country that the Democrats can make this coherent story that only applies to this one situation. But no, that's not going to apply to other situations. No.
All right. And do you think that the trans movement is more about left-wing men or left-wing women? Who do you think are the primary backers of the trans movement besides the trans themselves? Besides the trans themselves, you're saying men? I know men are — men might be transitioning more often. But who are the non-trans people supporting? Mostly women, right? So this would be a case of women complaining about men. And the context here is trans discrimination.
All right. So do you see the theme? It — let's talk about Bud Light. So you know, you all know this Bud Light story so I don't have to tell you that. But apparently Bud Light decreased sales and some of their other beverages increased at about the same rate that Bud Light decreased sales. So the Budweiser boycott didn't work at all, in case you're wondering. The Budweiser boycott probably didn't make any difference. You know, Budweiser doesn't like it and they're paying some expensive people to figure out how to make their brand good. And I don't know if you saw the clip of Joe Rogan laughing hysterically at Budweiser's new commercial because they tried to change the commercial into America and patriotism and Clydesdales. And it was just so over the top pathetic that Rogan was just using it as a joke to laugh at it. Yeah, it feels like they lost their way a little bit. But I don't think they're going to lose their money. So it looks like Budweiser is gonna be fine.
Let's talk about U.S. digital currency, which you all want me to talk about but you're not going to like what I have to say. So that's why I've been avoiding talking about it because you're not gonna like it. All right, here's what you want me to say. The government is looking at creating a digital currency, not yet to replace cash, but we assume that that's the direction it's going. So what you want me to say is that we should stop this immediately because as soon as the government can control your money and everywhere you spend it, they can just turn the knob on and off and they can control you. And that's an unlivable future. So we must stop them from doing digital currency.
And I just can't make that argument because unfortunately there's another argument that's bigger than that, which is there's nothing you can do to stop digital currency. Do you seriously think you can stop digital currency from replacing cash? There isn't anything that could do that. There's no protesting. There's nothing that could do that. We absolutely are going to have digital money that the government can control and can control you. I can complain about it but it's not going to be different. It might delay it six months or something. But no, cash will not be the way we pay for things in a hundred years. No, it's just going to be digital. And there's nothing you can do about it.
So I see people signing off. Bye bye now. I'm not saying that I want it. I'm saying I don't complain about things I can't change. That's not a changeable situation. Now we might want to figure out how to safeguard our life in that situation. I haven't heard of any ideas for that. If I do, you know, maybe I can back them. But yeah, there's nothing you can do. We will be completely without privacy and we will be completely controlled. I don't like it, just to be clear. It's not my first choice. But there's nothing you can do about it.
I suppose complaining could make people think of better alternatives. But I don't think there's going to be one. It's going to be digital. Now I don't think it'll be as different in the future as you think it will because how many of you already pay for things digitally anyway? How many of you are still writing checks or giving cash to people? Don't you pay on Venmo or Google Pay at least, let's say, half or more of your transactions? Don't you? For the little stuff, you know, the little services and stuff. No, you're not there yet? Well, you will be. Yeah, you will be sooner or later. This is going to happen. You need to pay somebody cash and you won't have the cash with you. You don't have time to go to the ATM. And then you're going to say, well, I have this thing called Venmo. I've never used it. Does that work? And the person will say, yeah, that works. Yeah, Apple Pay. I think we're just going to sort of drift into it from convenience. And there's nothing that can change it.
All right. If you think of a better spin on that, let me know.
Here's news from the Haitian capital. It's over in Haiti where crime is rampant and the gang members are practically running society over there. This happened: a mob in the Haitian capital pulled 13 suspected gang members from police custody. They actually took the gang members from the police and set them all on fire. Put a tire on them, I guess that's sort of the way it's done. Put a tire on them, pour gas on them, and set them on fire. So the law-abiding public in Haiti is so fed up that they actually attacked the police to take custody of their prisoners to murder them in public. Now that's some serious citizen action right there. Now I'm not going to say that's a trend, but I don't hate it. I don't hate it. Looks like citizens might have to do what they need to do.
And I'm predicting a wave of vigilante action in the U.S. There's only — what do you do if you're in a high crime area and there's no police? You either have to fight yourself or leave. If you leave, well, you get canceled. I hear bad things about people who try to stay away from potential trouble. But I don't know. I think there's going to be a lot more vigilantism. Also a lot more mass shootings because there's so many young men with no purpose. So I think you're going to see a lot more of that.
All right. Here I'm going to agree with Ibram X. Kendi. Here's something you didn't expect today. So I saw on Twitter people are tweeting around. Paul Graham had the average income of people by ethnic groups in the United States. And what it showed is that the Indian immigrants who are now Indian American mostly have the highest income by ethnic group. And then there are various Asian Americans who have high incomes compared to the rest. And some people said, hey, that means that if Black people are not doing as well as Indian Americans and Chinese Americans, etc., that must be something wrong with Black culture. So what is it about these Asian and Indian cultures that allows them to succeed? And the critics say it must be something with Black culture.
Now Ibram X. Kendi says no, it's systemic racism. It's not culture. Who do you think is right? Who do you think is right? Is it culture or is it systemic racism? What do you say?
Well, I'm going to agree with one of the points that Kendi said, especially that the immigration paths were different and that does matter. Do you think that the Asian and Indian American immigrants are coming here with the same disadvantages of a freed slave? It's not even close. I feel as if the people we're getting are often technically proficient, often came from a high-end school in India, are specifically recruited for their skills. You know, they're going to be doctors and technologists and engineers of all kinds. So isn't there a filtering issue going on? Are we not getting the cream of the crop from some countries because of the way we set up the immigration process? Whereas the Black Americans were brought in on slave ships, many of them, and descended from that. So there's no filtering mechanism, at least that kind of filtering mechanism. I think that's a good point.
How many of you think that's not a valid point from Kendi that the immigration filters differently from different countries at different times? That's valid, yeah. There are people actually saying that that's not valid. Now keep in mind I'm not saying that's the only thing that's causing differential. I'm not saying it's the only thing. But there's no way that's not a valid point. Come on. Come on. Seriously. You don't think that we have different filters for different countries of who we let in and why? Of course we do.
You think you would get the same result from Indian Americans who are flying here on airplanes compared to people flowing across the southern border, which is basically anybody with legs? So if you were to compare any two groups, one group is anybody who has legs and the other group is people who can figure out how to buy an airplane ticket to get to America, there's no way those two are going to have the same income in 10 years. There's no way.
All right. I feel like when I say Kendi, you just want to disagree with him. You would be far more credible if you allowed him the points that are clearly obviously true, which is the immigration paths make a difference. As long as you don't accept all of his points. I'm not saying accept all of his points. That's just one good point. It's just one good point. I think we can agree to that.
Now beyond that, I'm sure there's a cultural difference that makes a difference. It feels like it. But that's just anecdotal. I don't have any science to support that. But it looks like it. It looks like it. So from the outside, our poor powers of observation sure looks like it. I just don't have any scientific evidence that would back that point. And I would definitely back Kendi for saying that there are systemic racism in the school system, for example. That would be my best example of it.
So all right. So did you catch my theme of the day? Every time we put men and women together, it's a problem for white men. And every time you put Black people and white men together, it's a problem for white men. Okay, not every time. You know, every time I say every time, you shouldn't believe every time. That's obvious hyperbole. So all of this is obvious hyperbole. When you double cancel before it, it's probably going to happen. Probably going to get double, triple canceled today.
But there is a real problem of people working together now. There's a real problem. It's actually dangerous to be around other people. Am I wrong? It's actually dangerous to be around other people even if you think you're not breaking a law. You might think you're just being yourself or you think, oh, I just tell the truth. That's maybe what you think about yourself. But other people are like, oh, I'm going to cancel you, mofo. I'm going to get a little dopamine hit from canceling you. I don't want to be around anybody who gets a dopamine hit from canceling me.
Did you see AOC's glee when Tucker Carlson parted with Fox News? Like watching her little video of how happy she was. I mean, she was genuinely happy. That's a dopamine hit. Don't be around anybody who would be that happy if something bad happened to you. Is that good advice? Don't be around somebody who would be happy and get a dopamine charge just for seeing something bad happening to you. Get away from that as far as you can. Yeah.
So all right. That's my general theme. Men and women are dangerous to each other.
All right. The uniparty idea. Now I don't buy the uniparty idea. I buy individuals doing individual things and it sums up to something that looks like a uniparty. Well, we definitely have a uniparty when it comes to war. So there's an argument on that.
Your kids have canceled you because you're afraid of woke culture. All right. So here's something I'm no longer going to entertain. Please, please do not ask me to comment on people from different political parties running as one party. I'm not going to comment on RFK Jr. maybe being on the ticket with Trump. Just stop. That's not going to happen. That is not worth talking about. There's any chance.
All right. And so what else is going on? I continue to use AI with no success whatsoever. Has anybody used AI for anything successful where it saved you time and made you some money or something? Yeah, I've been looking. So far it's just extra work. I mean, one assumes that the upside is tremendous, but nothing yet.
All right. Charging higher fees for people with good credit scores. Well, the Democrats are consistent in ignoring human motivation. So the story about people with higher credit having to pay extra to pay for people with bad credit is one of those stories. The story about Elizabeth Warren wants to pack the court as if the Republicans won't repack it when they take charge. All right, it's a ridiculous idea. Ridiculous, perfect idea. But each of these ridiculous ideas has the same problem. It ignores human motivation. If you ignore how humans are and how they normally are and how they normally act, you cannot build a system. And that's consistently what the Democrats do. They ignore human motivation.
All right. Using Midjourney for film production right now. Well, I'll bet you spend extra time and don't get any extra benefit from it.
Democrats announced their 2024 nominee. Okay, Biden I guess.
At Biden's current rate of decline, what do you expect by next year? Is he going to be even a little bit functional? And what do the Democrats do about Kamala? You know what would be interesting if Trump just ran against Kamala by just not mentioning Biden? By saying he's irrelevant. He could actually just say, all right, I'm running for president against Kamala Harris. And then people say, no, no, Biden is the top of the ticket. And then you just look at them and you go, right? Yeah, that's funny. You actually — he could just pretend Biden isn't running. Just imagine that. Imagine Trump running for president by simply acting or playing as though Biden is not in the race and just say Kamala Harris whenever he talks about their candidate. Just don't even act like he's part of the process. Say Joe Biden is babbling with his dementia, making some claims about January 6 and the good people hoax. He can't tell a hoax from reality. He's so far out of it. But looks like I'm really running against Kamala Harris. So if you think Kamala Harris can do a better job than me, vote Democrat.
So Susan Rice resigned, which is making people speculate that she could be a vice presidential running mate. What do you think of that? That does sound like — does that sound likely? Wouldn't Susan Rice be the Obama handler? Like the one that Obama would use to handle Biden. So to me that doesn't sound crazy. If you were going to predict what Democrats want to happen, I think what they want to happen is Susan Rice to replace Kamala. But ideally they'd like to replace Biden, I guess.
All right. Oh, someone says that Susan Rice was not left enough so she got pushed down for not being left enough. Well, not being left enough might be a perfect vice president because you don't want somebody who's too left. She's horrible for this country. Some people say that. Susan Rice — I don't know enough about her. I don't really have a — is there a Susan Rice and a Condoleezza Rice? Two Rices. What are the odds that there would be two Rices? All right. She's just Obama as a woman.
All right. Well, could Obama transition and then run again? Interesting. No, it would still be him though. So technically he would still be him. So he couldn't do it.
All right. I don't think I have anything else left to say. So we're gonna end this conversation now. For YouTube, YouTube, thanks for joining. Let's fix the country tomorrow. We'll do that tomorrow.
good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of civilization best thing that ever happened to you and anybody you'd know and if you'd like to take your experience to levels that nobody's ever seen before in the known universe all you need is a cup of mugger glass a tanker Chalice of Stein a canteen Joker flask a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid I like coffee and join me now of the unparalleled pleasure the dopamine hit of the day the thing that makes everything better it's called the simultaneous if it happens now go that's some good stuff well I know what you all want to talk about Tucker Carlson and the news and stuff like that but I'd like to suggest a theme for today's live stream do you like it when I have a theme when all the news coincidentally seems to fit a theme and here it is we'll put it together uh as we go but first I would like to do a demonstration of the wisdom of my audience the smartest audience in the history don't answer don't answer the question before I ask it stop it stop it they're answering the question correctly before I've asked the question that is unbelievable unbelievable it's actually happening it's happening on You.
Tube too now I I'm just blown away how some more my audience is well now that you know the answer let me ask the question according to erasmussen poll what percentage of Americans I think it's likely voters but something like that about what percent of these Americans are not concerned about domestic spying oh you all get it right it's exactly 25 percent 25 percent yeah it turns out that 74 of likely U.S voters are very concerned or they're concerned and then half of them half the people are very concerned but 25 percent not concerned one bit about the government watching everything you're doing no problem with that whatsoever so pat yourself on the back if you got that one right I'm going to keep quizzing you until you get one wrong yeah I'm just going to keep keep asking questions until I can find anything you guys don't know it's amazing all right have I ever told you that all news about public figures is fake have I ever mentioned that like maybe a lot of times like maybe almost every day yeah so I'm going to tell you a bunch of news about uh public figures how much of it should you believe the answer is that 25 now the answer is zero it might be that all of the facts are accurate so I might be telling you all accurate facts based on the news but how often are all the accurate facts that you hear in the news a complete and accurate picture of what was going on basically never it's just not even a thing and I'm I'm saying this based on my own experience I've been a public figure in the subject of news for 30 years it's never true they'll get maybe your birthday right and even that's a deposit all right so let's talk about some famous people saw a tweet from Tristan Tate one of the Tate brothers and I guess they got brought back into court in Romania and things are getting really sketchy over there right the the news is just so incomplete but would you agree that whatever we're hearing about Romania and the the Tate Brothers is probably inaccurate would you agree do you think we know anything about what's going on let me tell you this tweet just to give you a a sense of how little we know about what's happening all right this is from Tristan Tate he says they meaning Romania they charged me yesterday with quote inciting violence toward others and then he says I thought it was a human trafficker where's the evidence for that uh oh yeah that's right they don't have any so they make something else up all right now I'm not gonna uncritically assume that the defendant is telling the truth that would be sort of a stretch but do you think that Romania is acting in a way that sounds like just a government looking to handle crime there's something else going on there isn't there don't you feel like there's something else going on yeah now do you think that one way to characterize the Tate Brothers problems is bad behavior toward women do you think that's at the heart of it I mean there there's some other allegations swirling around but it seems like some kind of behavior regarding women not women in general but the women who may have worked with him in his operation now those are the accusations I'm not saying I'm not saying I know what's true but those are the accusations the women are accusing them of being bad men who do bad things all right let's talk about Tucker Carlson uh so Tucker Carlson and Fox News are going to part ways but apparently it's only the show I guess his contract will probably be paid out the news is saying so Dr.
Carlson is having a terrible day where he just learned that he gets to spend as much time as he wants with his family and doing whatever he wants and instead of working he'll be and being the subject of everybody's hate he'll just make 20 million dollars a year from staying home so bad day for him huh yeah he he must be I'll bet he's crying himself to sleep probably crying himself to sleep but given that we know absolutely nothing about this situation and it wouldn't surprise me if Tucker doesn't know why he was fired either because it's all what's in people's heads right I mean it Whatever happened there will never really know I don't think we'll ever know the the real truth but don't you think it's a some kind of average of what people have in their private thoughts you know there's some executive who has a private thought about this or that there's another executive who has a private thought about this or that there's you know Murdoch and the Murdoch you know kids who have different thoughts about different things and then some decision gets made so you're going to see all kinds of reasons for him getting fired but none of them none of them individually seem to rise to the level of really that's the reason you're getting that they got rid of the show but I'll list them all right so the Daily Beast says helpfully put together a list as have other media and they've got their own ideas but among the many many many things that Tucker Carlson did uh he used the c word a lot he used the c word a lot and there's something about his comments about Sidney Powell now it's a little unclear if the c word was used in conjunction with a conversation about Sydney Powell or if those were just different topics now um correct me if I'm wrong but when you use the c word at work that really angers men I'll tell you men really get bad about that you use that c word in front of a group of men and nobody else and those men will be like hey hey don't use that word so I'm just assuming that men complained about his use of that word um he made disparaging remarks about management is there anybody who hasn't never made a disparaging remark About Management are you kidding me I'm doing a live stream which is almost entirely people who want to see me and even most of you have made disparaging remarks about me I mean maybe not in that you might you might like some things too but everybody makes disparaging remarks about everybody what's different is that his emails may have been surfaced her Communications may have been surfaced during that lawsuit so maybe some of those Executives saw some discouraging or disparaging remarks the The Daily Beast also says it's something about his January 6 conspiracy coverage now do you think that there was anybody at Fox News who said out loud the problem is is January 6 coverage Maybe but this sounds like just something that The Daily Beast would make up because they want it to be true it feels like wishful thinking doesn't it Dan Dan the NPC says Scott you ignorant that's almost a sentence there goodbye thanks for joining us um let's see what else has he approved oh he's all Tucker is also accused of a former producer has a lawsuit that says it was a sexist environment now he's not being accused of any of me too stuff but rather the way he talked was sexist so um and that's the sort of thing that men who work with probably complained a lot about so I can imagine Tucker talking to the guys and the guys are like whoa whoa Tucker that's a little bit sexist can you calm that down a little bit calm that down we men don't like that at all uh let's see what else uh Oliver Darcy says it's related to ex-producers lawsuit for his rampant sexism and then Oliver Darcy as he then throws this in and anti-semitic Behavior um what would be an example of anti-Semitic Behavior now I would understand if they said he had anti-semitic words like words I can imagine somebody doing that not necessarily Tucker but you could imagine a person doing something that's anti-Semitism but what exactly was his behavior do you think that's real did he start a little Holocaust of his own there was his behavior to overtly discriminate against Jewish employees or Jewish guests seems like if they had a specific we might have heard it does that sound like just something that was made up by CNN does that sound true remember a hundred percent of stories about famous people are not true now I only see this stuck in in the CNN report like I don't even The Daily Beast which is no friend of Tucker's doesn't mention anything about any anti-semitic thing do you know that when I got canceled the ADL somebody from the ADL came after me they tried to make it anti-semitic just kind of tack onto the story a little bit well you know maybe he did something anti-semitic too right well he said some bad things that had nothing to do with us but we think we could maybe tag on a little bit and get a little juice from this too so uh that's probably ridiculous but it's a serious accusation so we'll uh we'll put a pin in it but if you don't hear this from other entities it sounds like it's just a CNN little little Jab all right all right uh profanity laced remarks now there's another thing that men hate men hate it when men swear so a lot of men were mad at Tucker at Fox News that's for sure um and maybe uh maybe something about the advertisers wanting to stay away from uh Tucker's show it did seem to be that Tucker did not have the a-level advertisers and you know I've always wondered how Fox News even makes money when I see the advertisements that they're wrong I think to myself how many pillows can you sell or you know how much gold do people need I I don't really even understand their business model because when I look at if I look at a commercial on one of the major networks you know it's going to be some big Pharma company or something and you say oh I understand that they make money that big Pharma company is paying them a lot of money to advertise but Fox advertisers don't look like they even have money I don't even know where they get their money I mean they seem like smaller outfits I just don't know how the honestly I don't know how they make money um like literally I don't understand how they do it so maybe it's that um then RFK Jr said it was something about not long after uh RFK Jr was on the show and talking about big Pharma so RFK Jr thinks it might be something about big Pharma pushing back what do you think of all those reasons which ones do you find compelling knowing that we'll never know all right it could be that the real reason is some reason is not even in the news right so some say big Pharma some say lawsuits uh potential lawsuits some say RFK some say a combination some say it's a rayap story the January 6th stuff don't want to get sued basically right um you think it was Kennedy you think it was Dominion you think it's j6 some say insurance all right what if I taught you let's see if you remember this lesson what does it mean when everybody has a different opinion of why it happened what's that mean what can you conclude from the fact that all The Observers have a different opinion well nobody knows nobody knows it might also be unknowable because like I say it was a I'm sure it was a group decision you know even though Murdoch could make the decision himself I'm sure it was a group you know they consulted but I don't think that they each knew what was in the minds of the other obviously they said what they want to say but maybe their actual secret thoughts were for themselves and they just made the argument that was fit for other people to hear so I got a feeling it was just a bunch of people who had a bunch of problems and when the bunch of problems reached the level where it was higher than the benefit they pulled the trigger yeah it could be the power the Paul Ryan effect he's on the board and doesn't it could be that the Carlson was too friendly not friendly but too beneficial to Trump getting elected because if Tucker kept going at the January 6th thing then that would make Trump stronger all right so I guess we don't know what it was exactly but I'll tell you the uh the spot that he's in so the people who have been in that spot was uh let's see Bill Bill O'Reilly was there in that APM spot Megan Kelly was there right um and now Tucker was there somebody else there Glenn Beck right so Glenn Beck Megyn Kelly and O'Reilly and now Tucker so if you had to come up with a name for what you would call that eight o'clock block I would call it the the kill me block you know if you go there you might as well just kill me right just kill me um so who did they have as a guest host in the kill me slot last night just guess just imagine that you live in the simulation and everything is meant to be a joke you don't know it but it's like a physical joke that's being played on us who would they put in the kill me spot Brian kill me duh Brian kill me duh was in the kill me slot I mean come on come on total simulation I didn't say it was funny I just said it was a simulation messing with us you can decide on your on your own if it's funny I mean it's not my joke it's a simulation so let's see uh we got all those possibilities um now the the speculation also is what's going to happen to Tucker where will he go and everybody's got their own guesses um now there are two lines of thinking and they're both worthy of exploring one says that Tucker is a singular personality he's bigger than Fox News and when he wherever he goes if he goes independent he could become The Joe Rogan of you know independent people or something like that but even Joe Rogan depends on advertisers doesn't he it's going to be a little bit tough for uh Tucker to find advertisers because he couldn't find it for a show so I mean if Fox News can't get you an Advertiser it'd be hard to scrounge one up on your own but I suppose he could I suppose good yeah uh Mike cernovich accurately points out that Tucker is sort of a target for lawsuits so unless you've got some big organization behind you to pay your legal bills it's it's too risky to be in business The Way Tucker does business maybe maybe but you know if you're making Joe Rogan kind of money you can also buy Joe Rogan kind of insurance and Dr doesbank Joe Rogan mummy so he can buy insurance I don't know if you can buy you know 100 million dollars worth of insurance but maybe he can I don't know so so some say he's going to go to the independent route now others say and I think they're not wrong the Fox News is the star and the the eight o'clock spot is the star and you could put it in anybody good and they would have huge ratings because it's about the platform that's not wrong you know I've been telling for you for years that whatever you want to whatever you want to say to complain about Fox News there's one thing that they do consistently well and have for years which is their producers really produce yeah see that looks poorly produced to me as does MSNBC but Fox News consistently looks like the producers the people behind the curtain are just a higher level of operators they just seem more effective to me so they can put on a show and maybe it's the show is the star and they can put in interesting people and you know picking picking the right celebrity or the right personality is part of producing so I'm going to say that their eight o'clock hour is going to do fine what do you think now it might take him a while to find their footing but I think they're going to put in somebody who's as interesting yeah maybe not on day one but as interesting and you're going to tune in because it's eight o'clock and the TV's on and you're just gonna watch it that's what happens when they got rid of not got rid of but so in the after Glenn back after O'Reilly after Megan Kelly there the ratings just kept going up so why won't that happen again so I'm going to say that from the perspective of Fox News probably it looks like a pretty good decision does that surprise you if I'm if I'm just going to do the business decision the the things that have been listed as the potential problems for Tucker if any subset of that is true yeah that's pretty good reasons pretty good reasons now because remember they would have confidence that they can fill that slot eventually with somebody who makes them just as much money and they wouldn't have the problems they wouldn't have the lawsuits so it's not a terrible business decision it doesn't mean that it'll work out right all businesses at risk so it could be it could be the worst thing they ever did but if you based it on their history it was a smart business decision which is not to I'm not trying to not support Tucker I'm just saying you can see it from my business perspective and the risk was higher than the return we'll see um but how will Tucker do do you think that he will go off and start his own thing that's bigger than his old audience well I saw a reporting that says that none of the three people I mentioned did so Megan Kelly's doing well but doesn't have the same size audience Glenn Beck obviously is doing great on the blaze but proudly the smaller audience and O'Reilly has got his own thing but smaller audience so do you think Tucker will go on to just have a nice solid respectable podcast and you know you'll just happily go on Maybe Maybe there are a number of entities that would uh try to get him news nation and news Nations where uh um Chris yeah Chris Cuomo ended up so that might make sense they're independent you know they're trying to hit some kind of Middle Ground reporting so I don't know I don't know if anybody has enough money to pay him what he needs but he could make a fortune as a podcaster obviously so he's got lots of options it's a good place to be I would guess that his cancellation if you want to call it that feels a lot like mine did which is everybody else thinks is worse than it is for you and you're thinking oh well it's a good thing I spent my career up to this point building a bunch of skills because if you have a bunch of skills as stalker does he's got a ton of options he has so many options I hope nobody's feeling sorry for him is anybody feeling sorry for Tucker I mean I wish I wish things didn't happen that were bad for anybody but no he's doing great I I would guess he's having a good week if I had to guess this following week will be more fun and interesting and stimulating for Tucker than the week before because he was just sort of going to work and grinding out the same show after a show which had to be a lot of work and now he's on vacation he's getting paid the same the entire world has opened up to him I don't know looks pretty good for him let's talk about uh oh AOC talked about deep platforming works and it is important so AOC is very happy about Tucker being de-platformed okay oh also some people think it's the war in Ukraine because Tucker was anti-war in Ukraine um some say it's about the presidential election because you want to remove players from the field I think it's all of those things I think it's all of those things it's it's the whole bag of things that's that's why it's we'll never hear there was one thing and if you do hear that it was one thing I wouldn't believe it it's it's all the things um how about Don Lemon so Don Lemon now I don't know if this is true but I'd like to think it's true every once in a while you like to think um you like to think that people do smart things if CNN was getting ready to fire down lemon and then the unexpected news about Tucker Carlson hit wouldn't the smartest thing for them to do is immediately Fire Dog lemon so that his news is tagged on to Tucker's news but it's behind it because Tucker is going to get more attention I think that's what they did if if they didn't do that intentionally I'll be very disappointed because it would be one of the smartest media things I'd ever seen I mean really really smart you know they like to announce bad news on a Friday before a three-day weekend uh but this was even better you know assuming that they they were ready to go you know they'd already made it were almost a decision to fire him that was just such a good timing and what was Don Lemon um fired for well his uh diva-like Behavior do you think his diva-liked behavior was bothering the men the Menace he had done do you think the men were saying that Don Lemon he's acting so diva-like I don't know based on the reporting there are a lot of women in the reporting who seemed angry at him and he was being called misogynist so the teeth are misogynist Tucker Carlson was accused of being a misogynist and now Don Lemon gay man is being accused of being a misogynist have you seen the pattern yet do you know this pattern yeah working with women is really dangerous working with women is going to put you in jail and get you fired that's where we are basically if you're working with women and there are a bunch of them the odds that one of them will sue you or call you a misogynist is nearly 100 percent it's nearly 100 percent so it seems to me that the obvious future of all men in public life is to eventually be sued and fired in disgrace because if you took a hundred of any type of person so this has nothing to do with being women right if this sounds anti-woman just you can remove the woman from the story and replace any demographic there's a hundred of whatever albonians 100 binaries 100 cisgender white men 100 anything if there are a hundred of them you're going to have some bad ones do you agree it doesn't matter who it is a hundred human beings you're gonna have some bad ones and if those bad ones have this easy way to take out the men they work with it's going to happen over time so you so you're seeing the complete inability of men and women to work together for long now I'm not going to give men a pass if you put men in any environment and you wait long enough they're going to do some bad stuff because you know man I can say that because I am one we do bad stuff if you wait long enough so men and women working together just doesn't work I hate to say it but in 2023 men and women working together absolutely is too dangerous because some of the women are going to complain and then that would have to be taken seriously and probably it is serious it probably is based on something real so let me ask you this do you remember when the metoo movement was everywhere and people were getting me too all over the place did you notice it stopped what's up with that how did it stop did the guys stop big guys I doubt it did the women stop complaining I actually don't know that I don't know the answer but didn't we get one or two metoo stories per day and the closest we've come is wasn't there some NBC executive who admitted he had a consensual affair with somebody in the at work and then he quit but even that wasn't scandalous it wasn't it wasn't even scandalous it just seemed like there was an affair and that was against the rules and that's about the whole story um yeah so that's how I'm going somebody says all right so uh uh oh and uh it might be a little bit racist to the Don Lemon stuff not that not that Don Lemon was fired uh because their management was racist I'm not saying that so management was not racist rather that Don Lemon was being called a racist and Don Lemon was being called a racist because when he interviewed uh um Vivek ramaswamy he said something along the lines of that ramaswamy couldn't speak about the post-civil war history because ramaswamy wasn't black is that racist I guess so I mean technically yes okay so Don Lemon was a racist misogynist uh as were basically all men in all of our stories how about a story that's not okay we have a story that's not about men and women fighting and the men losing because that seems to be the theme all right here's one that just has nothing to do with that um Elizabeth Warren wants to pack the courts so that they can get what they want without having to worry about the majority of the Republicans so at least that has nothing to do with you know women blaming men for stuff right oh yes except that that's exactly what it is it's a woman blaming the men on the Supreme Court for abortion decisions basically because this is all about abortion I don't think they were going to pack the court until there was abortion question and what about guns maybe something about guns do you think guns are maybe sort of have a gender split too maybe so here we have Elizabeth Warren trying to destroy the most important part of the Republic which is that we don't pack the court if I could if I could come to Earth as some kind of a God and tell America how the one thing they have to do right imagine I I just appear as an angel uh uh I have come to Earth to tell America you can do almost everything wrong and recover there's just one thing I I just want to ask you just do one thing right don't pack the court it's the only thing that could destroy everything everything else we can figure out but if you pack the court it's over now how does she not know this I think she she puts the goal above the system I put the system above the goal I understand that they have a goal of you know having the Supreme Court make different decisions I got it but if it were the other way I wouldn't want to destroy the courts to get those specific decisions especially if it's something that God has said to the state like abortion but to me this looks like a decision she doesn't like and so she's going to do something to destroy the entire civilization so those men won't make that bad decision anymore she wants to destroy not wants to but her proposal has a pretty high risk of destroying the Republic and maybe all of human civilization as a consequence of that so that's special um Biden made his announcement and he's got a theme for his announcement his theme will that he will be telling lots of lies about Trump so that's his sleeve so he's going to start with the January 6 lies he's going to go to the soul of the nation that's the uh um the Charlottesville fine people lie um and probably a few other lies so he's basing his campaign on lying about Trump I wouldn't expect much more than that actually um do you think that the Democrats are feeling trapped do you think that Trump can finish off Biden this time if it turns out to be Trump versus Biden which is sort of looking like I don't know I thought Trump was going to make an easy worker Biden the first time except for you know the the let's say the changes to the voting system because the pandemic just made everything different but don't you think Trump has more to work with this time last time it was all a hypothetical well if you elect Biden you will do these bad things but now we've seen Biden so there's specific things to talk about right energy blah blah well many of you think this system is rigged and that Trump can't win do you think that the Republicans will do an adequate job of making sure that they're monitoring elections better I don't I don't think the Republicans did anything useful so I wouldn't be surprised if the campaign makes no difference to the outcome it wouldn't surprise me would it surprise you don't you think you could see a campaign that clearly indicates one person is going to win but then the other person wins and you wouldn't be surprised because we don't believe the system at this point yeah so I have no evidence that the election system is rigged I have no evidence of that I only have uh a brain which tells me that if anything can be rigged it will be if it can and do you think that the election is something that can be rigged of course of course in some way big or small and someday today or later or yesterday but yeah it's a riggable system so therefore it will be just eventually we don't know if it happened yet or in the future all right um so Biden put out his little video yeah he's going to focus on January 6.
isn't that convenient that Tucker Carlson the primary person who pushed back on January 6 disappears right before Biden announces that he's running and it's all going to be about January 6th stuff interesting that's a lucky coincidence for Biden right there all right speaking of January 6.
in a story that reminds me of it apparently uh a bunch of left-wing protesters descended on Montana's capital disrupting proceedings in the State House of Representatives this was in support of transgender lawmaker Zoe Zephyr a Democrat now what happens when uh protesters they disrupt a government proceeding what's that called there's there's a word for that inser Insurrection yes Insurrection so the next part of the story is that every one of those that left-wing protesters were rounded up and put in jail do you believe that no of course not you don't put left-wing protesters in jail what are you crazy are you crazy rayups was not there I know you're going to ask okay well so what else can you even say about that story that you just have to shake your head because you live in such a corrupt country that that the Democrats can make this coherent story that only applies to this one situation but no that's not going to apply to other situations no all right um and do you think that the uh do you think that the trans movement is more about uh left-wing men or left-wing women who do you think are the primary backers of the trans movement besides the trans themselves besides the trans themselves you're saying men I know men are men might be transitioning more often but who are the non-trans people supporting mostly women right so this would be a case of women complaining about men and the context here is trans discrimination all right so do you see the theme it let's talk about Bud Light um so you know you all know this Bud Light story so I don't have to tell you that but apparently Bud Light uh increase sales and some of their other beverages at about the same rate that Bud Light decrease sales so the Budweiser boycott didn't work at all in case you're wondering the Budweiser boycott probably didn't make any difference you know Budweiser doesn't like it and they're paying some expensive people to figure out you know how to make their brand good and I don't know if you saw the clip of Joe Rogan uh laughing hysterically at Budweiser's new commercial because they tried to change the commercial into America and patriotism and Clydesdales and it was just so over the top pathetic that Rogan was just using it as a joke to laugh at it yeah it feels like they lost their way a little bit but I don't think they're going to lose their money so it looks like Budweiser is gonna be fine um let's talk about U.S digital currency which you all want me to talk about but you're not going to like what I have to say so that's why I've been avoiding talking about it because you're not gonna like it all right here's what you want me to say the government is looking at creating a digital currency not yet to replace cash but we we assume that that's the direction it's going so what you want me to say is that we should stop this immediately because as soon as the government can control your money and everywhere you spend it they can just turn the knob on and off and they can control you and that's an unlivable future so we must stop them from doing digital currency and I just can't make that argument because unfortunately there's another argument that's bigger than that which is there's nothing you can do to stop digital currency do you seriously think you can stop digital currency from replacing cash there isn't anything that could do that there's no protesting there's nothing that could do that we absolutely are going to have digital money that the government can control and can control you I can complain about it but it's not going to be different it might like delay at six months or something but no cash will not be the the way we pay for things in a hundred years no it's just going to be digital and there's nothing you can do about it so I see people signing off bye bye now I'm not saying that I want it I'm saying I don't complain about things I can't change that's not a changeable situation now we might want to figure out how to safeguard our our life in that situation I haven't heard of any ideas for that if I do you know maybe I can back them but yeah there's nothing you can do we will be completely without privacy and we will be completely controlled I don't like it just to be just to be clear it's not my first choice but there's nothing you can do about it um I suppose complaining could make people think of better Alternatives but I don't think there's going to be one it's going to be digital now I don't think it'll be as different in the future as you think it will because how many of you already pay for things digitally anyway how many of you are still writing checks or giving cash to people don't you pay on venmo or Google pay at least let's say half or more of your transactions don't you for the little stuff you know the little services and stuff no you're not there yet well you will be yeah you will be sooner or later this is going to happen you need to pay somebody cash and you won't have the cash with you you don't have time to go to the ATM and then you're going to say well I have this thing called venmo I've never used does that work and the person will say yeah that works yeah Apple pay I I think we're just going to sort of drift into it from convenience and there's nothing that can change it all right if you think of a better uh spin on that let me know um here's news from the Haitian Capital it's over in Haiti where a crime is rampant and the gang members are practically running Society over there this happened a mob in the Haitian Capital pulled 13 suspected gang members from police custody they actually took the gang members from the police and set them all on fire put a tire on them I guess that's sort of the way it's done put a tire on them pour gas on them and set them on fire so the the the law-abiding public in Haiti is so fed up that they actually attacked the police to take custody of their prisoners to murder them in public now that's some serious citizen action right there now I'm not going to say that's a trend but I don't hate it I don't hate it looks like citizens might have to do what they need to do and I'm predicting a wave of vigilante action in in the U.S there's only what do you do if you're in a high crime area and there's no police you either have to fight yourself or leave if you leave well you get canceled I hear I hear I hear bad things about people who try to stay away from potential trouble but I don't know I think there's going to be a lot more vigilantism um also a lot more mass shootings because there's so many uh young men with no purpose so I think you're going to see a lot more of that all right here I'm going to uh agree with Ibrahim kindy here's something you didn't expect today um so I saw on Twitter people are tweeting around Paul Graham had it the average income of people by ethnic groups in the United States and what it showed is that the Indian immigrants who are now Indian American mostly um have the highest income by ethnic group and then there are various Asian Americans we had them who have high incomes compared to the rest and some people said hey that means that if black people are not doing as well as Indian Americans and Chinese Americans Etc that must be something wrong with black culture so what is it about these Asian and Indian cultures that allows them to succeed and the critics say it must be something with Black Culture now Abraham kindy says no it's systemic racism it's not culture who do you think is right who do you think is right is it culture or is it systemic racism what do you say um well I'm going to agree with one of the points that candy said especially that the the immigration paths were different and that does matter do you think that the uh the Asian and Indian American immigrants are coming here with the same disadvantages of a freed slave it's not even close I I feel as if the people we're getting are you know often technically proficient often came from a you know a high-end School in India are specifically recruited for their skills you know they're going to be doctors and technologists and Engineers of all kinds so isn't there a filtering issue going on are we not getting the you know cream of the crop from some countries because of the way we set up the immigration process whereas the black Americans were brought in on slave ships many of them and descended from that so there's no filtering mechanism at least that kind of filtering mechanism I think that's a good point how many of you think that's not a valid point from Kennedy that the immigration filters differently from different countries at different times that's valid yeah you there are people actually saying that that's not valid now keep in mind I'm not saying that's the only thing that's causing differential I'm not saying it's the only thing but there's no way that's not a valid point come on come on seriously you don't you don't think that we have different filters for different countries of who we let in and why of course we do you think you would get the same result from Indian Americans who are flying here on airplanes compared to people flowing across the southern border which is basically anybody with legs so if you were to compare any two groups one group is anybody who has legs and the other group is people who can figure out how to buy an airplane ticket to get to America there's no way those two are going to have the same income in 10 years there's no way all right I I feel like when I say candy you just want to disagree with them you would be far more credible if you allowed him the points that are clearly obviously true which is the immigration paths make a difference as long as you don't accept all of his points I'm not saying except all of his points that's just one good point it's just one good point I think we can I think we can agree to that now beyond that I'm sure there's a cultural difference that makes a difference it feels like it but that's just anecdotal I don't have any science to support that but it looks like it it looks like it so from the outside our poor powers of observation sure looks like it I just don't have any scientific evidence that would back that point and I would definitely back candy for saying that there are systemic racism um in the school system for example that would be my best example of it so all right um so did you catch my theme of the day every time we put men and women together it's a problem for white men and every time you put black people and white men together it's a problem for white men okay not every time you know every every time I say every time you shouldn't believe every time that's obvious hyperbole so all of this is obvious hyperbole when when you double cancel before it it's probably going to happen probably going to get double triple canceled today but there is a real problem of people working together now there's a real problem it's actually dangerous to be around other people am I wrong it's actually dangerous to be around other people even if you think you're not breaking a law you might think you're just being yourself or you think oh I just tell the truth that's my maybe what you think about yourself but other people are like oh I'm going to cancel you mofo I'm going to get a little I'm going to get a little dopamine hip from cancel you I don't want to be around anybody who gets a dopamine hair from canceling me did you see aoc's Glee when Tucker Carlson uh parted with Fox News like watching her little video of how happy she was I mean she was genuinely happy that's a dopamine hit don't be around anybody who would be that happy if something bad happened to you is that good advice don't be around somebody who would be happy and get a dopamine charge just for seeing something bad happening to you get away from that as far as you can yeah so all right that's my general theme men and women were dangerous to each other all right um the uni party idea now I don't buy the unit party idea I buy individuals doing individual things and it sums up to something that looks like a uniparty well we definitely have a unit party when it comes to war so there's an argument on that um uh your kids have canceled you because you're afraid of woke culture all right all right so here's something I'm no longer going to entertain please please do not ask me to comment on people from different political parties running as one party I'm not going to comment on RFK Jr maybe being on the ticket with Trump just stop that's not going to happen that is not worth talking about there's any chance all right um and uh so what else is going on I continue to use AI with no success whatsoever has anybody used AI for anything successful where it saved you saved you time and made you some money or something yeah I've been looking so far it's just extra work I mean one assumes that the upside is tremendous but nothing yet all right um charging higher fees for people with good credit scores well the Democrats are consistent in ignoring human motivation so the story about people with higher credit having to pay extra to pay for people with bad credit is one of those stories the story about Elizabeth Warren wants to pack the court as if the Republicans won't repack it when they take charge all right it's a ridiculous idea ridiculous perfect idea but each of these ridiculous ideas has the same problem it ignores human motivation if you ignore how humans are and how they normally are and how they normally act you cannot build a system and that's consistently what the Democrats do they ignore human motivation all right um using mid-journey for Film Production right now well I'll bet you spend extra time and don't get any extra benefit from it Democrats announced their 2024 nominee okay Biden I guess all right um at Biden's current rate of decline what do you expect by next year is he going to be even a little bit functional and what it what do the Democrats do about uh about Tacoma you know what would be interesting if Trump just ran about ran against Kamala by just not mentioning Biden by saying he's irrelevant he could actually just say all right I'm running for president against Kamala Harris and then people say no no Biden is the top of the ticket and then you just look at him and you go right yeah that's funny you actually he could just pretend Biden isn't running just imagine that imagine Trump running for president by simply acting or playing as though Biden is not in the race and just say Kamala Harris whenever whenever he talks about their candidate just don't even act like he's part of the process say Joe Biden is babbling with his dementia making some claims about January 6 and the good people hoax he can't tell a hoax from reality he's so far out of it but uh looks like I'm really running against Kamala Harris so if you think Kamala Harris can do a better job than me vote Democrats so Susan Rice resigned which is making people speculate that she could be a vice presidential running mate what do you think of that that does sound like does that sound likely wouldn't Susan Rice be the Obama Handler like the one that Obama would use to handle to handle my so to me that doesn't sound crazy if you were going to predict what Democrats want to happen I think what they want to happen is Susan Rice to replace Kamala but ideally they'd like to replace Biden I guess all right oh someone says that Susan Rice was not left enough so she got pushed down for not being left enough well not being left enough might be a perfect vice president because you don't want somebody who's two left she's horrible for this country some people say that Susan Rice I don't know enough about her I don't really have a is there a Susan Rice and a Condoleezza Rice two Rices what are the odds that there would be two Rices all right she's just Obama as a woman all right well could Obama transition and then run again um interesting no it would still be him though so technically he would still be him so he couldn't do it all right I don't think I have anything else left to say so we're gonna end this conversation now for You.
Tube You.
Tube thanks for joining Let's uh fix the country tomorrow we'll do that tomorrow
good morning everybody
and welcome to the highlight of
civilization best thing that ever
happened to you and anybody you'd know
and if you'd like to take your
experience to levels that nobody's ever
seen before in the known universe all
you need is a cup of mugger glass a
tanker Chalice of Stein a canteen Joker
flask a vessel of any kind fill it with
your favorite liquid I like coffee
and join me now of the unparalleled
pleasure the dopamine hit of the day the
thing that makes everything better
it's called the simultaneous if it
happens now go
that's some good stuff
well I know what you all want to talk
about
Tucker Carlson and the news and stuff
like that but I'd like to suggest a
theme for today's live stream do you
like it when I have a theme
when all the news coincidentally seems
to fit
a theme
and here it is
we'll put it together uh as we go
but first I would like to do a
demonstration of the wisdom of my
audience the smartest audience in the
history don't answer don't answer the
question before I ask it stop it stop it
they're answering the question correctly
before I've asked the question that is
unbelievable
unbelievable it's actually happening
it's happening on YouTube too now
I I'm just blown away how some more my
audience is well now that you know the
answer
let me ask the question
according to erasmussen poll
what percentage of Americans I think
it's likely voters but something like
that about what percent of these
Americans are not concerned about
domestic spying
oh you all get it right it's exactly 25
percent
25 percent
yeah it turns out that 74 of likely U.S
voters are very concerned or they're
concerned and then half of them half the
people are very concerned but 25 percent
not concerned one bit about the
government watching everything you're
doing
no problem with that whatsoever
so pat yourself on the back if you got
that one right
I'm going to keep quizzing you until you
get one wrong
yeah I'm just going to keep keep asking
questions until I can find anything you
guys don't know it's amazing
all right
have I ever told you that all news about
public figures is fake
have I ever mentioned that
like maybe a lot of times like maybe
almost every day
yeah
so I'm going to tell you a bunch of news
about uh public figures
how much of it should you believe
the answer is that 25
now the answer is zero
it might be that all of the facts are
accurate
so I might be telling you all accurate
facts based on the news
but how often are all the accurate facts
that you hear in the news a complete and
accurate picture of what was going on
basically never it's just not even a
thing and I'm I'm saying this based on
my own experience
I've been a public figure in the subject
of news for 30 years
it's never true
they'll get maybe your birthday right
and even that's a deposit
all right so let's talk about some
famous people
saw a tweet from Tristan Tate one of the
Tate brothers
and I guess they got
brought back into court in Romania
and things are getting really sketchy
over there
right the the news is just so incomplete
but would you agree that whatever we're
hearing about Romania and the the Tate
Brothers is probably inaccurate would
you agree
do you think we know anything about
what's going on let me tell you this
tweet just to give you a a sense of how
little we know about what's happening
all right
this is from Tristan Tate he says they
meaning Romania they charged me
yesterday with quote inciting violence
toward others
and then he says I thought it was a
human trafficker where's the evidence
for that
uh oh yeah that's right they don't have
any so they make something else up all
right
now I'm not gonna uncritically assume
that the defendant is telling the truth
that would be sort of a stretch but do
you think that Romania is acting in a
way that sounds like just a government
looking to handle crime
there's something else going on there
isn't there
don't you feel like there's something
else going on
yeah
now do you think that one way to
characterize the Tate Brothers problems
is bad behavior toward women
do you think that's at the heart of it I
mean there there's some other
allegations swirling around but it seems
like
some kind of behavior regarding women
not women in general but the women who
may have worked with him in his
operation now those are the accusations
I'm not saying I'm not saying I know
what's true
but those are the accusations the women
are accusing them of being bad men who
do bad things
all right let's talk about Tucker
Carlson
uh
so Tucker Carlson and Fox News
are going to part ways but apparently
it's only the show
I guess his contract will probably be
paid out the news is saying
so Dr Carlson is having a terrible day
where he just learned that he gets to
spend as much time as he wants with his
family and doing whatever he wants and
instead of working he'll be and being
the subject of everybody's hate he'll
just make 20 million dollars a year from
staying home
so bad day for him huh
yeah
he he must be I'll bet he's crying
himself to sleep
probably crying himself to sleep but
given that we know absolutely nothing
about this situation and it wouldn't
surprise me if Tucker doesn't know why
he was fired either
because it's all what's in people's
heads right
I mean it Whatever happened there will
never really know I don't think we'll
ever know the the real truth but don't
you think it's a some kind of average of
what people have in their private
thoughts
you know there's some executive who has
a private thought about this or that
there's another executive who has a
private thought about this or that
there's you know Murdoch and the Murdoch
you know kids
who have different thoughts about
different things and then some decision
gets made
so
you're going to see all kinds of reasons
for him getting fired
but none of them none of them
individually seem to rise to the level
of really
that's the reason you're getting that
they got rid of the show
but I'll list them all right so the
Daily Beast says helpfully put together
a list as have other media and they've
got their own ideas but among the many
many many things that Tucker Carlson did
uh he used the c word
a lot
he used the c word a lot and there's
something about his comments about
Sidney Powell
now it's a little unclear if the c word
was used
in conjunction with a conversation about
Sydney Powell or if those were just
different
topics
now
um
correct me if I'm wrong but when you use
the c word at work
that really angers men I'll tell you men
really get bad about that
you use that c word in front of a group
of men and nobody else and those men
will be like hey hey don't use that word
so I'm just assuming that men complained
about his use of that word
um
he made disparaging remarks about
management
is there anybody who hasn't never made a
disparaging remark About Management
are you kidding me
I'm doing a live stream which is almost
entirely people who want to see me
and even most of you have made
disparaging remarks about me
I mean maybe not in that you might you
might like some things too but everybody
makes disparaging remarks about
everybody what's different is that his
emails may have been surfaced her
Communications may have been surfaced
during that lawsuit so maybe some of
those Executives saw some discouraging
or disparaging remarks the The Daily
Beast also says it's something about his
January 6 conspiracy coverage
now do you think that there was anybody
at Fox News who said out loud
the problem is is January 6 coverage
Maybe
but this sounds like just something that
The Daily Beast would make up because
they want it to be true
it feels like wishful thinking doesn't
it
Dan Dan the NPC says Scott you ignorant
that's almost a sentence there goodbye
thanks for joining us
um
let's see what else has he approved oh
he's all Tucker is also accused of a
former producer has a lawsuit that says
it was a sexist environment
now he's not being accused of any of me
too stuff
but rather the way he talked
was sexist
so
um and that's the sort of thing that men
who work with probably complained a lot
about
so I can imagine Tucker talking to the
guys and the guys are like whoa whoa
Tucker that's a little bit sexist
can you calm that down a little bit calm
that down we men don't like that at all
uh let's see what else
uh Oliver Darcy says it's related to
ex-producers lawsuit
for his rampant sexism and then Oliver
Darcy as he then throws this in and
anti-semitic Behavior
um
what would be an example of anti-Semitic
Behavior
now I would understand if they said he
had anti-semitic words like words
I can imagine somebody doing that not
necessarily Tucker but you could imagine
a person doing something that's
anti-Semitism but what exactly was his
behavior
do you think that's real
did he start a little Holocaust of his
own there
was his behavior to overtly discriminate
against Jewish employees or Jewish
guests
seems like if they had a specific
we might have heard it
does that sound like just something that
was made up by CNN
does that sound true
remember a hundred percent of stories
about famous people are not true
now I only see this stuck in in the CNN
report
like I don't even The Daily Beast which
is no friend of Tucker's doesn't mention
anything about any anti-semitic thing
do you know that when I got canceled
the ADL somebody from the ADL came after
me they tried to make it anti-semitic
just kind of tack onto the story a
little bit well
you know maybe he did something
anti-semitic too
right well he said some bad things that
had nothing to do with us but we think
we could maybe tag on a little bit and
get a little juice from this too
so
uh that's probably ridiculous but it's a
serious accusation so
we'll uh we'll put a pin in it but if
you don't hear this from other entities
it sounds like it's just a CNN little
little Jab
all right
all right uh
profanity laced remarks now there's
another thing that men hate men hate it
when men swear
so a lot of men were mad at Tucker at
Fox News that's for sure
um
and maybe uh
maybe something about the advertisers
wanting to stay away from uh Tucker's
show
it did seem to be that Tucker did not
have the
a-level advertisers
and you know I've always wondered how
Fox News even makes money
when I see the advertisements that
they're wrong I think to myself
how many pillows can you sell
or you know how much gold do people need
I I don't really even understand their
business model because when I look at if
I look at a commercial on one of the
major networks you know it's going to be
some big Pharma company or something and
you say oh I understand that they make
money that big Pharma company is paying
them a lot of money to advertise but Fox
advertisers don't look like they even
have money
I don't even know where they get their
money I mean they seem like smaller
outfits I just don't know how the
honestly I don't know how they make
money
um like literally I don't understand how
they do it
so
maybe it's that
um then RFK Jr said it was something
about not long after
uh RFK Jr was on the show and talking
about big Pharma so RFK Jr thinks it
might be something about big Pharma
pushing back
what do you think of all those reasons
which ones do you find compelling
knowing that we'll never know all right
it could be that the real reason is some
reason is not even in the news right so
some say big Pharma some say lawsuits
uh potential lawsuits
some say RFK some say a combination some
say it's a rayap story the January 6th
stuff
don't want to get sued basically right
um
you think it was Kennedy you think it
was Dominion you think it's j6 some say
insurance
all right what if I taught you let's see
if you remember this lesson
what does it mean when everybody has a
different opinion of why it happened
what's that mean what can you conclude
from the fact that all The Observers
have a different opinion
well nobody knows
nobody knows it might also be unknowable
because like I say it was a I'm sure it
was a group decision
you know even though Murdoch could make
the decision himself I'm sure it was a
group you know they consulted but I
don't think that they each knew what was
in the minds of the other
obviously they
said what they want to say
but maybe their actual secret thoughts
were for themselves and they just made
the argument that was fit for other
people to hear
so I got a feeling it was just a bunch
of people who had a bunch of problems
and when the bunch of problems reached
the level where it was higher than the
benefit
they pulled the trigger
yeah it could be the power the Paul Ryan
effect he's on the board and doesn't it
could be that the Carlson was too
friendly
not friendly but too beneficial to Trump
getting elected
because if Tucker kept going at the
January 6th thing
then that would make Trump stronger
all right
so
I guess we don't know what it was
exactly
but I'll tell you
the uh the spot that he's in so the
people who have been in that spot was uh
let's see Bill Bill O'Reilly was there
in that APM spot
Megan Kelly was there
right
um and now Tucker was there somebody
else there Glenn Beck right so Glenn
Beck Megyn Kelly and O'Reilly and now
Tucker
so if you had to
come up with a name for what you would
call that eight o'clock block
I would call it the the kill me block
you know if you go there you might as
well just kill me right just kill me
um so who did they have as a guest host
in the kill me
slot last night
just guess just imagine that you live in
the simulation and everything is meant
to be a joke
you don't know it but it's like a
physical joke that's being played on us
who would they put in the kill me spot
Brian kill me duh
Brian kill me duh was in the kill me
slot
I mean come on
come on
total simulation
I didn't say it was funny I just said it
was a simulation messing with us you can
decide on your on your own if it's funny
I mean it's not my joke it's a
simulation
so let's see uh
we got all those possibilities
um
now the the speculation also is
what's going to happen to Tucker where
will he go
and everybody's got their own guesses
um
now there are two lines of thinking and
they're both worthy of exploring one
says that Tucker is a singular
personality he's bigger than Fox News
and when he wherever he goes if he goes
independent he could become The Joe
Rogan of you know independent people or
something like that
but even Joe Rogan depends on
advertisers doesn't he
it's going to be a little bit tough
for uh Tucker to find advertisers
because he couldn't find it for a show
so I mean if Fox News can't get you an
Advertiser it'd be hard to scrounge one
up on your own but I suppose he could I
suppose good yeah uh Mike cernovich
accurately points out
that Tucker is sort of a target for
lawsuits so unless you've got some big
organization behind you to pay your
legal bills it's it's too risky to be in
business The Way Tucker does business
maybe maybe but you know if you're
making Joe Rogan kind of money you can
also buy Joe Rogan kind of insurance
and Dr doesbank Joe Rogan mummy so he
can buy insurance
I don't know if you can buy you know 100
million dollars worth of insurance but
maybe he can I don't know
so
so some say he's going to go to the
independent route now others say and I
think they're not wrong
the Fox News is the star
and the the eight o'clock spot is the
star and you could put it in anybody
good and they would have huge ratings
because it's about the platform
that's not wrong
you know I've been telling for you for
years that whatever you want to whatever
you want to say to complain about Fox
News there's one thing that they do
consistently well
and have for years
which is their producers really produce
yeah see that looks poorly produced to
me as does MSNBC but Fox News
consistently looks like the producers
the people behind the curtain are just a
higher level of operators they just seem
more effective to me so they can put on
a show
and maybe it's the show is the star and
they can put in interesting people and
you know picking picking the right
celebrity
or the right personality is part of
producing
so
I'm going to say that their eight
o'clock hour is going to do fine
what do you think
now it might take him a while to find
their footing but I think they're going
to put in somebody who's as interesting
yeah maybe not on day one but as
interesting and you're going to tune in
because it's eight o'clock and the TV's
on and you're just gonna watch it
that's what happens when they got rid of
not got rid of but so in the after Glenn
back after O'Reilly after Megan Kelly
there the ratings just kept going up
so why won't that happen again so I'm
going to say that from the perspective
of Fox News
probably it looks like a pretty good
decision
does that surprise you if I'm if I'm
just going to do the business decision
the the things that have been listed as
the potential problems for Tucker if any
subset of that is true
yeah that's pretty good reasons pretty
good reasons
now because remember they would have
confidence that they can fill that slot
eventually with somebody who makes them
just as much money and they wouldn't
have the problems they wouldn't have the
lawsuits
so it's not a terrible business decision
it doesn't mean that it'll work out
right all businesses at risk so it could
be it could be the worst thing they ever
did but if you based it on their history
it was a smart business decision
which is not to I'm not trying to not
support Tucker I'm just saying you can
see it from my business perspective and
the risk was higher than the return
we'll see
um but how will Tucker do do you think
that he will go off and start his own
thing that's bigger than his old
audience
well I saw a reporting that says that
none of the three people I mentioned did
so Megan Kelly's doing well but doesn't
have the same size audience
Glenn Beck obviously is doing great on
the blaze but proudly the smaller
audience
and O'Reilly has got his own thing but
smaller audience so do you think Tucker
will go on to just have a nice solid
respectable podcast
and you know you'll just happily go on
Maybe
Maybe
there are a number of entities that
would uh try to get him news nation and
news Nations where uh
um
Chris yeah Chris Cuomo ended up
so that might make sense they're
independent
you know they're trying to hit some kind
of Middle Ground reporting
so I don't know I don't know if anybody
has enough money to pay him what he
needs but he could make a fortune as a
podcaster obviously so he's got lots of
options it's a good place to be
I would guess that his cancellation if
you want to call it that
feels a lot like mine did
which is everybody else thinks is worse
than it is for you and you're thinking
oh
well it's a good thing I spent my career
up to this point building a bunch of
skills
because if you have a bunch of skills as
stalker does he's got a ton of options
he has so many options I hope nobody's
feeling sorry for him is anybody feeling
sorry for Tucker I mean I wish I wish
things didn't happen that were bad for
anybody
but no he's doing great
I I would guess he's having a good week
if I had to guess
this following week will be more fun and
interesting and stimulating for Tucker
than the week before
because he was just sort of going to
work and grinding out the same show
after a show which had to be a lot of
work and now he's on vacation he's
getting paid the same the entire world
has opened up to him
I don't know looks pretty good for him
let's talk about uh
oh AOC
talked about
deep platforming works and it is
important so AOC is very happy about
Tucker being de-platformed
okay oh also some people think it's the
war in Ukraine because Tucker was
anti-war in Ukraine
um some say it's about the presidential
election
because you want to remove players from
the field
I think it's all of those things
I think it's all of those things
it's it's the whole bag of things that's
that's why it's we'll never hear there
was one thing
and if you do hear that it was one thing
I wouldn't believe it
it's it's all the things
um
how about Don Lemon
so Don Lemon
now I don't know if this is true but I'd
like to think it's true every once in a
while you like to think
um
you like to think that people do smart
things
if CNN was getting ready to fire down
lemon and then the unexpected news about
Tucker Carlson hit
wouldn't the smartest thing for them to
do is immediately Fire Dog lemon
so that his news is tagged on to
Tucker's news but it's behind it because
Tucker is going to get more attention
I think that's what they did if if they
didn't do that intentionally I'll be
very disappointed because it would be
one of the smartest media things I'd
ever seen I mean really really smart
you know they like to announce bad news
on a Friday before a three-day weekend
uh but this was even better you know
assuming that they they were ready to go
you know they'd already made it were
almost a decision to fire him that was
just such a good timing
and what was Don Lemon
um fired for well his uh diva-like
Behavior
do you think his diva-liked behavior was
bothering the men
the Menace he had done do you think the
men were saying that Don Lemon
he's acting so diva-like
I don't know based on the reporting
there are a lot of women in the
reporting who seemed angry at him and he
was being called misogynist
so the teeth are misogynist Tucker
Carlson was accused of being a
misogynist and now Don Lemon gay man is
being accused of being a misogynist
have you seen the pattern yet
do you know this pattern
yeah working with women is really
dangerous
working with women is going to put you
in jail and get you fired
that's where we are
basically if you're working with women
and there are a bunch of them
the odds that one of them will sue you
or call you a misogynist is nearly 100
percent it's nearly 100 percent
so it seems to me that the obvious
future of all men in public life is to
eventually be sued and fired in disgrace
because if you took a hundred of any
type of person so this has nothing to do
with being women right if this sounds
anti-woman just you can remove the woman
from the story and replace any
demographic there's a hundred of
whatever albonians
100 binaries 100 cisgender white men 100
anything if there are a hundred of them
you're going to have some bad ones
do you agree it doesn't matter who it is
a hundred human beings you're gonna have
some bad ones and if those bad ones have
this easy way to take out the men they
work with it's going to happen over time
so you so you're seeing the complete
inability of men and women to work
together
for long
now I'm not going to give men a pass
if you put men in any environment and
you wait long enough they're going to do
some bad stuff
because you know man
I can say that because I am one we do
bad stuff if you wait long enough
so men and women working together just
doesn't work
I hate to say it but in 2023 men and
women working together absolutely is too
dangerous
because some of the women are going to
complain and then that would have to be
taken seriously and probably it is
serious it probably is based on
something real
so
let me ask you this
do you remember when the metoo movement
was everywhere and people were getting
me too all over the place
did you notice it stopped
what's up with that
how did it stop
did the guys stop big guys I doubt it
did the women stop complaining
I actually don't know that I don't know
the answer but didn't we get one or two
metoo stories per day
and the closest we've come is wasn't
there some NBC executive
who admitted he had a consensual affair
with somebody in the at work and then he
quit but even that wasn't scandalous it
wasn't it wasn't even scandalous it just
seemed like there was an affair and that
was against the rules and that's about
the whole story
um
yeah
so that's how I'm going somebody says
all right
so uh
uh oh and uh it might be a little bit
racist to the Don Lemon stuff not that
not that Don Lemon was fired uh
because their management was racist I'm
not saying that so management was not
racist rather that Don Lemon was being
called a racist
and Don Lemon was being called a racist
because when he interviewed uh
um Vivek ramaswamy he said something
along the lines of that ramaswamy
couldn't speak about the post-civil war
history
because ramaswamy wasn't black
is that racist
I guess so I mean technically yes
okay
so Don Lemon was a racist misogynist
uh
as were basically all men in all of our
stories
how about a story that's not okay we
have a story that's not about
men and women fighting and the men
losing because that seems to be the
theme
all right here's one that just has
nothing to do with that
um Elizabeth Warren wants to pack the
courts so that they can get what they
want without having to worry about the
majority of the Republicans
so at least that has nothing to do with
you know women blaming men for stuff
right
oh yes except that that's exactly what
it is
it's a woman blaming the men on the
Supreme Court for abortion decisions
basically because this is all about
abortion
I don't think they were going to pack
the court until there was abortion
question
and what about guns maybe something
about guns
do you think guns are
maybe sort of have a gender split too
maybe so
here we have Elizabeth Warren trying to
destroy the most important part of the
Republic which is that we don't pack the
court
if I could if I could come to Earth as
some kind of a God and tell America how
the one thing they have to do right
imagine I I just appear as an angel uh
uh I have come to Earth
to tell America
you can do almost everything wrong and
recover
there's just one thing
I I just want to ask you just do one
thing right
don't pack the court
it's the only thing that could destroy
everything everything else we can figure
out
but if you pack the court
it's over
now how does she not know this
I think she
she puts the goal above the system
I put the system above the goal I
understand that they have a goal of you
know having the Supreme Court make
different decisions I got it
but if it were the other way I wouldn't
want to destroy the courts to get those
specific decisions
especially if it's something that God
has said to the state like abortion
but to me this looks like a decision she
doesn't like and so she's going to do
something to destroy the entire
civilization
so those men won't make that bad
decision anymore
she wants to destroy not wants to but
her proposal has a pretty high risk of
destroying the Republic and maybe all of
human civilization as a consequence of
that
so that's special
um Biden made his announcement
and he's got a theme for his
announcement
his theme will that he will be telling
lots of lies about Trump
so that's his sleeve so he's going to
start with the January 6 lies
he's going to go to the soul of the
nation that's the uh
um the Charlottesville fine people lie
um and probably a few other lies
so he's basing his campaign on lying
about Trump
I wouldn't expect much more than that
actually
um
do you think that the Democrats are
feeling trapped
do you think that Trump can finish off
Biden this time if it turns out to be
Trump versus Biden which is sort of
looking like
I don't know I thought Trump was going
to make an easy worker Biden the first
time
except for you know the the let's say
the changes to the voting system because
the pandemic just
made everything different
but don't you think Trump has more to
work with this time
last time it was all a hypothetical well
if you elect Biden you will do these bad
things but now we've seen Biden so
there's specific things to talk about
right energy blah blah
well many of you think this system is
rigged and that Trump can't win
do you think that the Republicans will
do an adequate job
of making sure that they're monitoring
elections better
I don't
I don't think the Republicans did
anything useful
so I wouldn't be surprised if the
campaign makes no difference to the
outcome
it wouldn't surprise me would it
surprise you
don't you think you could see a campaign
that clearly indicates one person is
going to win but then the other person
wins and you wouldn't be surprised
because we don't believe the system at
this point
yeah so I have no evidence that the
election system is rigged
I have no evidence of that
I only have uh a brain which tells me
that if anything can be rigged
it will be
if it can
and do you think that the election is
something that can be rigged
of course of course in some way big or
small
and someday today or later or yesterday
but yeah
it's a riggable system so therefore it
will be just eventually we don't know if
it happened yet or in the future
all right
um
so Biden put out his little video yeah
he's going to focus on January 6. isn't
that convenient that Tucker Carlson the
primary person who pushed back on
January 6
disappears right before Biden announces
that he's running and it's all going to
be about January 6th stuff
interesting
that's a lucky coincidence for Biden
right there
all right speaking of January 6. in a
story that reminds me of it apparently
uh a bunch of left-wing protesters
descended on Montana's capital
disrupting proceedings in the State
House of Representatives
this was in support of transgender
lawmaker Zoe Zephyr a Democrat now what
happens when uh protesters
they disrupt a government proceeding
what's that called there's there's a
word for that
inser
Insurrection yes Insurrection so the
next part of the story is that every one
of those that left-wing protesters were
rounded up and put in jail
do you believe that
no of course not
you don't put left-wing protesters in
jail what are you crazy
are you crazy
rayups was not there I know you're going
to ask
okay well so
what else can you even say about that
story
that you just have to shake your head
because you live in such a corrupt
country that that the Democrats can make
this coherent story that only applies to
this one situation but no that's not
going to apply to other situations no
all right
um
and do you think that the uh
do you think that the trans movement is
more about uh left-wing men or left-wing
women
who do you think are the primary backers
of the trans movement besides the trans
themselves besides the trans themselves
you're saying men I
know men are men might be transitioning
more often
but who are the non-trans people
supporting mostly women right
so this would be a case of women
complaining about men and the context
here is trans discrimination
all right
so do you see the theme it let's talk
about Bud Light
um so you know you all know this Bud
Light story so I don't have to tell you
that but apparently Bud Light
uh increase sales and some of their
other beverages at about the same rate
that Bud Light decrease sales so the
Budweiser boycott didn't work at all
in case you're wondering the Budweiser
boycott probably didn't make any
difference you know Budweiser doesn't
like it and they're paying some
expensive people to figure out you know
how to make their brand good and I don't
know if you saw the clip of Joe Rogan uh
laughing hysterically at Budweiser's new
commercial
because they tried to change the
commercial into America and
patriotism and Clydesdales and it was
just so over the top
pathetic that Rogan was just using it as
a joke to laugh at it
yeah it feels like they lost their way a
little bit but I don't think they're
going to lose their money so it looks
like Budweiser is gonna be fine
um let's talk about U.S digital currency
which you all want me to talk about but
you're not going to like what I have to
say
so that's why I've been avoiding talking
about it because you're not gonna like
it
all right here's what you want me to say
the government is looking at creating a
digital currency
not yet to replace cash
but we we assume that that's the
direction it's going
so what you want me to say is that we
should stop this immediately because as
soon as the government can control your
money and everywhere you spend it they
can just turn the knob on and off and
they can control you and that's an
unlivable future
so we must stop them from doing digital
currency
and I just can't make that argument
because unfortunately there's another
argument that's bigger than that
which is there's nothing you can do to
stop digital currency
do you seriously think you can stop
digital currency from replacing cash
there isn't anything that could do that
there's no protesting there's nothing
that could do that we absolutely are
going to have digital money that the
government can control and can control
you I can complain about it but it's not
going to be different
it might like delay at six months or
something
but no cash will not be the the way we
pay for things in a hundred years
no it's just going to be digital and
there's nothing you can do about it
so I see people signing off bye bye now
I'm not saying that I want it
I'm saying I don't complain about things
I can't change that's not a changeable
situation
now we might want to figure out how to
safeguard our our life in that situation
I haven't heard of any
ideas for that if I do you know maybe I
can back them but
yeah there's nothing you can do we will
be completely without privacy and we
will be completely controlled
I don't like it just to be just to be
clear it's not my first choice but
there's nothing you can do about it
um I suppose complaining could make
people think of better Alternatives but
I don't think there's going to be one
it's going to be digital now I don't
think it'll be as different in the
future as you think it will because
how many of you already pay for things
digitally anyway
how many of you are still writing checks
or giving cash to people
don't you pay on venmo or Google pay
at least let's say half or more of your
transactions
don't you
for the little stuff you know the little
services and stuff no
you're not there yet well you will be
yeah you will be
sooner or later this is going to happen
you need to pay somebody cash and you
won't have the cash with you you don't
have time to go to the ATM and then
you're going to say well I have this
thing called venmo I've never used
does that work and the person will say
yeah that works yeah Apple pay
I I think we're just going to sort of
drift into it from convenience and
there's nothing that can change it
all right if you think of a better uh
spin on that let me know
um
here's news from the Haitian Capital
it's over in Haiti where a crime is
rampant and the gang members are
practically running Society over there
this happened
a mob in the Haitian Capital pulled 13
suspected gang members from police
custody they actually took the gang
members from the police
and set them all on fire
put a tire on them I guess that's sort
of the way it's done put a tire on them
pour gas on them and set them on fire
so the the the law-abiding public in
Haiti
is so fed up that they actually attacked
the police
to take custody of their prisoners to
murder them in public
now that's some serious citizen action
right there now I'm not going to say
that's a trend
but I don't hate it
I don't hate it
looks like citizens might have to do
what they need to do
and
I'm predicting a wave of
vigilante action in in the U.S there's
only
what do you do if you're in a high crime
area and there's no police
you either have to fight yourself or
leave
if you leave well you get canceled I
hear I hear I hear bad things about
people who try to stay away from
potential trouble but
I don't know I think there's going to be
a lot more vigilantism
um
also a lot more mass shootings because
there's so many uh young men with no
purpose
so I think you're going to see a lot
more of that
all right here I'm going to uh
agree with Ibrahim kindy
here's something you didn't expect today
um
so I saw on Twitter people are tweeting
around Paul Graham had it the average
income of people by ethnic groups in the
United States
and what it showed is that the Indian
immigrants who are now Indian American
mostly
um have the highest
income by ethnic group and then there
are various Asian Americans we had them
who have high incomes compared to the
rest
and some people said
hey that means that if black people are
not doing as well as Indian Americans
and Chinese Americans Etc that must be
something wrong with black culture
so what is it about these Asian and
Indian cultures that allows them to
succeed
and the critics say it must be something
with Black Culture now Abraham kindy
says no it's systemic racism it's not
culture who do you think is right
who do you think is right is it culture
or is it systemic racism
what do you say
um well I'm going to agree with one of
the points that candy said especially
that the the immigration paths were
different
and that does matter
do you think that the uh the Asian and
Indian American immigrants
are coming here with the same
disadvantages of a freed slave
it's not even close I I feel as if the
people we're getting are you know often
technically proficient often came from a
you know a high-end School in India are
specifically recruited for their skills
you know they're going to be doctors and
technologists and Engineers of all kinds
so
isn't there a filtering issue going on
are we not getting the
you know cream of the crop from some
countries because of the way we set up
the immigration process whereas the
black Americans were
brought in on slave ships many of them
and
descended from that
so there's no filtering mechanism
at least that kind of filtering
mechanism
I think that's a good point
how many of you think that's not a valid
point from Kennedy that the immigration
filters differently from different
countries at different times that's
valid yeah you there are people actually
saying that that's not valid now keep in
mind I'm not saying that's the only
thing that's causing differential I'm
not saying it's the only thing but
there's no way that's not a valid point
come on
come on seriously
you don't you don't think that we have
different filters for different
countries
of who we let in and why
of course we do
you think you would get the same result
from Indian Americans who are flying
here
on airplanes
compared to people flowing across the
southern border which is basically
anybody with legs
so if you were to compare any two groups
one group is anybody who has legs
and the other group is people who can
figure out how to buy an airplane ticket
to get to America
there's no way those two are going to
have the same
income in 10 years
there's no way
all right
I I feel like when I say candy you just
want to disagree with them
you would be far more credible if you
allowed him the points that are clearly
obviously true which is the immigration
paths make a difference
as long as you don't accept all of his
points
I'm not saying except all of his points
that's just one good point it's just one
good point
I think we can I think we can agree to
that
now beyond that
I'm sure there's a cultural difference
that makes a difference
it feels like it but that's just
anecdotal
I don't have any science to support that
but it looks like it it looks like it so
from the outside our
poor powers of observation sure looks
like it I just don't have any scientific
evidence that would back that point
and I would definitely back candy for
saying that there are systemic racism
um in the school system for example that
would be my best example of it
so
all right
um so did you catch my theme of the day
every time we put men and women together
it's a problem for white men
and every time you put black people and
white men together it's a problem for
white men
okay not every time you know every every
time I say every time you shouldn't
believe every time that's obvious
hyperbole
so all of this is obvious hyperbole when
when you double cancel before it it's
probably going to happen probably going
to get double triple canceled today
but there is a real problem of people
working together now
there's a real problem it's actually
dangerous to be around other people
am I wrong it's actually dangerous to be
around other people
even if you think you're not breaking a
law you might think you're just being
yourself or you think oh I just tell the
truth that's my maybe what you think
about yourself but other people are like
oh I'm going to cancel you mofo I'm
going to get a little I'm going to get a
little dopamine hip from cancel you
I don't want to be around anybody who
gets a dopamine hair from canceling me
did you see aoc's Glee when Tucker
Carlson uh parted with Fox News like
watching her little video of how happy
she was I mean she was genuinely happy
that's a dopamine hit
don't be around anybody who would be
that happy if something bad happened to
you
is that good advice don't be around
somebody who would be happy and get a
dopamine charge
just for seeing something bad happening
to you
get away from that as far as you can
yeah
so all right that's my general theme men
and women were dangerous to each other
all right um
the uni party idea now I don't buy the
unit party idea I buy individuals doing
individual things and it sums up to
something that looks like a uniparty
well we definitely have a unit party
when it comes to war
so there's an argument on that
um
uh your kids have canceled you because
you're afraid of woke culture
all right
all right so here's something I'm no
longer going to entertain
please please do not ask me to comment
on people from different political
parties running as one party I'm not
going to comment on RFK Jr maybe being
on the ticket with Trump
just stop that's not going to happen
that is not worth talking about there's
any chance
all right
um
and uh so what else is going on
I continue to use AI with no success
whatsoever
has anybody used AI for anything
successful
where it saved you saved you time and
made you some money or something
yeah I've been looking so far it's just
extra work
I mean one assumes that the upside is
tremendous but nothing yet
all right
um charging higher fees for people with
good credit scores well the Democrats
are consistent in ignoring human
motivation
so the story about people with higher
credit having to pay extra to pay for
people with bad credit is one of those
stories the story about Elizabeth Warren
wants to pack the court as if the
Republicans won't repack it when they
take charge
all right it's a ridiculous idea
ridiculous
perfect idea but each of these
ridiculous ideas has the same problem it
ignores human motivation
if you ignore how humans are and how
they normally are and how they normally
act you cannot build a system
and that's consistently what the
Democrats do they ignore human
motivation
all right
um
using mid-journey for Film Production
right now well I'll bet you spend extra
time and don't get any extra benefit
from it
Democrats announced their 2024 nominee
okay Biden I guess
all right um
at Biden's current rate of decline
what do you expect by next year
is he going to be even a little bit
functional
and what it what do the Democrats do
about uh
about Tacoma
you know what would be interesting
if Trump just ran about ran against
Kamala
by just not mentioning Biden by saying
he's irrelevant
he could actually just say all right I'm
running for president against Kamala
Harris
and then people say no no Biden is the
top of the ticket and then you just look
at him and you go right
yeah that's funny
you actually he could just pretend Biden
isn't running
just imagine that imagine Trump running
for president
by simply acting or playing as though
Biden is not in the race and just say
Kamala Harris whenever whenever he talks
about their candidate just don't even
act like he's part of the process
say Joe Biden is babbling with his
dementia making some claims about
January 6 and the good people hoax he
can't tell a hoax from reality he's so
far out of it but uh looks like I'm
really running against Kamala Harris
so if you think Kamala Harris can do a
better job than me vote Democrats
so Susan Rice
resigned which is making people
speculate that she could be a vice
presidential running mate what do you
think of that
that does sound like
does that sound likely
wouldn't Susan Rice be the Obama Handler
like the one that Obama would use to
handle
to handle my
so to me that doesn't sound crazy
if you were going to predict what
Democrats want to happen I think what
they want to happen is Susan Rice
to replace
Kamala but
ideally they'd like to replace Biden I
guess
all right
oh someone says that Susan Rice was not
left enough so she got pushed down for
not being left enough well not being
left enough might be a perfect vice
president
because you don't want somebody who's
two left
she's horrible for this country some
people say that Susan Rice I don't know
enough about her I don't really have a
is there a Susan Rice and a Condoleezza
Rice two Rices
what are the odds that there would be
two Rices
all right
she's just Obama as a woman
all right
well
could Obama transition and then run
again
um
interesting
no it would still be him though so
technically he would still be him so he
couldn't do it
all right I don't think I have anything
else left to say so we're gonna
end this conversation now for YouTube
YouTube thanks for joining
Let's uh fix the country tomorrow we'll
do that tomorrow
