1 00:00:04,510 --> 00:00:05,510 Start the clock. 2 00:00:40,460 --> 00:00:42,180 Thank you. Thank you, everybody. 3 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:44,420 I appreciate it. 4 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:46,040 How you doing? 5 00:00:47,180 --> 00:00:48,520 Thank you so much. 6 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,820 We're back. We're back where we belong. 7 00:00:54,140 --> 00:00:55,140 Thank you. 8 00:00:55,380 --> 00:00:57,380 Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen. 9 00:00:57,780 --> 00:00:59,240 I appreciate you. 10 00:01:01,660 --> 00:01:02,660 All right. 11 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,459 All right. I appreciate you. 12 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,620 Staying with us while we had a vacation. We just had a break. I had a crazy 13 00:01:09,620 --> 00:01:10,620 break, I got to say. 14 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,140 I'll tell you one thing. Mitch McConnell can party. 15 00:01:16,740 --> 00:01:17,740 Oh, man. 16 00:01:19,660 --> 00:01:23,540 The rest of it is a blur. All I know is I'm married to Taylor Swift now. I don't 17 00:01:23,540 --> 00:01:24,540 know how it happened. 18 00:01:25,380 --> 00:01:26,380 No, I kid. 19 00:01:26,540 --> 00:01:27,540 Well. 20 00:01:29,780 --> 00:01:33,660 While we were off, only a month, but lots of change in the Republican Party. 21 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:35,520 Lindsey Graham dropped dead, you know this. 22 00:01:35,940 --> 00:01:40,080 And Mitch McConnell also died, but he still wanders the earth. 23 00:01:41,180 --> 00:01:43,220 But not 24 00:01:43,220 --> 00:01:50,160 Lindsey Graham, you know. And 25 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:51,860 look, you say what you want about him. 26 00:01:52,060 --> 00:01:56,260 He had a funeral the other day, National Cathedral, world leaders showed up. That 27 00:01:56,260 --> 00:01:57,440 is not often a senator. 28 00:01:57,820 --> 00:01:59,280 Gets that kind of a fend-off. 29 00:01:59,580 --> 00:02:05,540 And just, I must say, on a personal note, looking for common ground with 30 00:02:05,540 --> 00:02:09,460 Lindsay. But we both made it to 70 without getting married. 31 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:23,300 We took slightly different pathways, but I'm just saying we both made it to 70. 32 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,160 But, you know, Lindsey was kind of the Trump whisperer. You know, he really was 33 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,440 the guy. The Senate, they said they're going to miss him for that. And, boy, 34 00:02:32,540 --> 00:02:36,680 Trump needs it because the poll numbers are not good. Seventy-three percent of 35 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,980 Americans say Trump has not paid enough attention to the important problems. 36 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,460 I guess somebody missed the fireworks thing on Fourth of July, huh? 37 00:02:48,660 --> 00:02:49,660 No, 38 00:02:51,580 --> 00:02:52,580 I know. 39 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,780 I know what people mean. Because, like, while we were off, did you see this? 40 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,420 Trump gave a big speech about the election. 41 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,560 The 2020 election. 42 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:03,760 Really. 43 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:09,380 Oh, for fuck's sake. You know, you fucked a porn star. Melania didn't hold 44 00:03:09,380 --> 00:03:10,440 this much of a grudge. 45 00:03:14,580 --> 00:03:16,660 I can't. Always with love. 46 00:03:17,850 --> 00:03:21,690 But, uh, but I'm so glad we're back, and, you know, midsummer, it's hot out 47 00:03:21,690 --> 00:03:25,710 there, but summer's tricky now, you know? You want to get a good tan, but 48 00:03:25,710 --> 00:03:27,650 not so good you get picked up by ice. 49 00:03:31,330 --> 00:03:33,230 And, uh, oh, man. 50 00:03:37,270 --> 00:03:40,890 Speaking of that, you think we have immigration problems? Did you see what 51 00:03:40,890 --> 00:03:42,370 happened in Spain yesterday? 52 00:03:43,330 --> 00:03:47,030 60,000 people in one day bum-rushed the border. 53 00:03:48,140 --> 00:03:52,040 And got through. And this poor Spain. At the same time, they're having horrible 54 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,340 fires. Spain is the new California. 55 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:56,600 So it is. 56 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:04,020 The northern part is on fire. The southern part gets overrun by migrants. 57 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,440 And everybody speaks Spanish. It's the new California. 58 00:04:09,060 --> 00:04:10,060 Oh, we kid. 59 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:12,840 So, uh... 60 00:04:15,470 --> 00:04:20,550 A couple of pretty important milestones happened while we were off. The Iran war 61 00:04:20,550 --> 00:04:21,769 is now six months old. 62 00:04:22,390 --> 00:04:24,630 Trump says, please, keep it in perspective. 63 00:04:25,510 --> 00:04:30,370 It hasn't taken nearly as long as Vietnam or Korea or getting home from 64 00:04:30,370 --> 00:04:31,370 Troy. 65 00:04:40,810 --> 00:04:42,190 Have you seen The Odyssey? 66 00:04:42,570 --> 00:04:46,390 Amazing. I bet Hollywood has a movie this big, people going to see it at 2 in 67 00:04:46,390 --> 00:04:47,390 the morning. This is awesome. 68 00:04:49,010 --> 00:04:52,590 And if you haven't seen it, it's about a serial adulterer who gets stuck in a war 69 00:04:52,590 --> 00:04:53,509 that takes forever. 70 00:04:53,510 --> 00:04:55,670 Trump calls it the feel-good movie of the summer. 71 00:04:58,730 --> 00:04:59,730 So, uh, 72 00:05:00,810 --> 00:05:07,450 okay, so... Where are we with the war, since our last show was June 73 00:05:07,450 --> 00:05:09,610 26th? Where are we? Well, we won. 74 00:05:13,770 --> 00:05:17,810 Many times. We've won many times, and we're still fighting. 75 00:05:19,670 --> 00:05:24,090 It got nasty this week. Trump said, and I'm quoting this directly, he said, 76 00:05:24,130 --> 00:05:27,570 we're going to be hitting them hard because it's our turn to hit them. 77 00:05:29,490 --> 00:05:33,930 I'd like to point out this is exactly the argument I used against my sister in 78 00:05:33,930 --> 00:05:34,930 1967. 79 00:05:36,570 --> 00:05:38,750 Exactly. It is my turn. 80 00:05:43,950 --> 00:05:48,050 Trump's very mad now because Iran fired missiles, and now they hit two of our 81 00:05:48,050 --> 00:05:51,510 tankers. I mean, it's one thing to fire on the troops, but not the oil. 82 00:05:55,490 --> 00:06:00,530 Oh, another milestone. This is pretty big. More people now in this country use 83 00:06:00,530 --> 00:06:04,010 marijuana on a daily basis than use alcohol or cigarettes. 84 00:06:11,190 --> 00:06:13,390 Unfortunately, no one told Tony Romo. 85 00:06:16,030 --> 00:06:16,630 One 86 00:06:16,630 --> 00:06:24,150 other 87 00:06:24,150 --> 00:06:25,150 minor story. 88 00:06:25,630 --> 00:06:30,990 AI has escaped containment, gone rogue, stopped caring what we tell it to do, 89 00:06:31,090 --> 00:06:32,570 and it's going to kill us all. 90 00:06:33,090 --> 00:06:38,210 But on the bright side, they have developed AI holograms of deceased 91 00:06:38,210 --> 00:06:43,770 people. You know, your loved ones, there they are now. It's a way to deal with 92 00:06:43,770 --> 00:06:46,890 grief and also a way so Mitch McConnell can keep voting. 93 00:06:47,150 --> 00:06:51,110 All right, we've got a great show. Scott Galloway and Pete Hamby are here. 94 00:06:51,430 --> 00:06:55,510 But first up, she is a consumer advocate, environmental activist, and 95 00:06:55,510 --> 00:06:59,090 founder of the Brockovich Report on subtext, Aaron Brockovich. 96 00:07:15,370 --> 00:07:17,910 Look at that. It's still a big star. 97 00:07:18,150 --> 00:07:24,050 How are you? I'm good. Nice to see you. Because we remember what you did with 98 00:07:24,050 --> 00:07:26,970 the environment and stopping people from poisoning the water. 99 00:07:28,290 --> 00:07:35,210 But, you know, that was one. 100 00:07:35,330 --> 00:07:39,950 We always have environmental issues that you are always into. All environmental 101 00:07:39,950 --> 00:07:43,010 issues. And I mean, I get to go just off the top of my head. 102 00:07:43,610 --> 00:07:44,229 The ocean. 103 00:07:44,230 --> 00:07:47,730 I mean, we have other things going on now, but these things haven't gone away. 104 00:07:47,810 --> 00:07:52,870 What we're doing to the ocean, bad air, the ice is melting. This is still going 105 00:07:52,870 --> 00:07:54,270 on. Species extinction. 106 00:07:54,510 --> 00:08:00,370 But now we have this new one, AI, and your new issue is data centers. So tell 107 00:08:00,370 --> 00:08:03,970 us what we should be thinking about data centers and why are people pissed off 108 00:08:03,970 --> 00:08:04,970 about them? 109 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:10,760 It was unintended. I woke up one morning and I had three emails from the same 110 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:12,340 community out of Pennsylvania. 111 00:08:12,660 --> 00:08:14,440 And they were talking about data centers. 112 00:08:14,660 --> 00:08:19,440 And it felt like kind of a moment where I was back in Hinkley and you're looking 113 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,200 at something or seeing something or hearing something and you're like going, 114 00:08:22,340 --> 00:08:27,300 I don't know. What is this? That's not right. So I started researching data 115 00:08:27,300 --> 00:08:28,300 centers. 116 00:08:28,940 --> 00:08:30,680 What did the email say? 117 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:36,659 Well, so they were concerned about these data centers that were being placed in 118 00:08:36,659 --> 00:08:38,020 their backyards. Why? 119 00:08:38,620 --> 00:08:44,400 So, well, because these big data centers have to feed AI the beast. 120 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,600 Yeah. So we've always had data centers. They're generally smaller. But why is it 121 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:49,120 better if I live next door to one? 122 00:08:49,340 --> 00:08:52,420 Oh, well, because they're very destructive. 123 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:58,100 A lot of these facilities aren't small. They're big. There's 2,000 acres, 3,000 124 00:08:58,100 --> 00:08:59,260 acres, 4,000 acres. 125 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:04,080 So one of the first things that people were reporting to me in those specific 126 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:08,640 30 emails was everything was done under a nondisclosure agreement. 127 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:09,960 Everything. 128 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:14,100 Everything. At the city council level, I'm like, that's really odd. 129 00:09:14,420 --> 00:09:19,060 So for me, I wanted to see the bigger picture. Where were these data centers? 130 00:09:19,220 --> 00:09:22,460 So I created a map, BrockovichDataCenter.com. 131 00:09:23,210 --> 00:09:24,890 The first day it crashed twice. 132 00:09:25,410 --> 00:09:29,570 And by day three, every single state in the United States of America was 133 00:09:29,570 --> 00:09:30,730 reporting to me. 134 00:09:31,990 --> 00:09:32,990 Isn't that ironic? 135 00:09:33,230 --> 00:09:36,990 I mean, that's why we're building data centers. Because people use this shit so 136 00:09:36,990 --> 00:09:40,710 much. If they didn't, if they weren't looking at videos of a raccoon every 137 00:09:40,710 --> 00:09:41,710 day. 138 00:09:43,310 --> 00:09:44,690 I'm not saying we should stop. 139 00:09:44,930 --> 00:09:45,930 I'm just saying. 140 00:09:46,650 --> 00:09:51,830 You're not arguing that we don't need the data centers. It's just what I've 141 00:09:51,830 --> 00:09:56,000 read. Is that people are pissed off because you live next door to something 142 00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:02,760 that is always humming and light, even at night? Sounds like a spaceship. 143 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:04,300 Yeah. Maybe it is a spaceship. 144 00:10:04,540 --> 00:10:10,840 Well, it's very disturbing to them, and I get it. And it's the whole country, 145 00:10:10,900 --> 00:10:12,880 and I now have nine other countries reporting. 146 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:19,820 Look. We need our natural resources. We need our water. We need our land. 147 00:10:20,100 --> 00:10:21,220 We need our air. 148 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:22,760 We need our food. 149 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,920 We worry about our health. 150 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:31,160 And with these big super AI data centers, it's risking and taking all of 151 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:35,440 that. It's taking land masses. It's taking farmland. It's taking water 152 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,640 consumption. People are losing their wealth. 153 00:10:38,860 --> 00:10:40,480 We definitely have enough land. 154 00:10:40,860 --> 00:10:43,240 I mean, they are big. I mean, they're building one now, I read. 155 00:10:43,940 --> 00:10:44,940 $500 billion. 156 00:10:45,820 --> 00:10:46,820 $500 billion? 157 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:51,180 That's a piece of infrastructure we're talking about. But this is the data 158 00:10:51,180 --> 00:10:53,760 center is the infrastructure of AI. 159 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,340 And we're not turning our back on AI. 160 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,480 No, that genie's left the bottle. I wish we could. And, you know, we can talk 161 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,540 about how scary it is or not, whatever it is. But it's not going away. 162 00:11:03,820 --> 00:11:06,740 It can't because we don't control it anymore. 163 00:11:06,940 --> 00:11:07,940 Ha, ha, ha. 164 00:11:17,740 --> 00:11:20,800 I'm going to talk about this with the panel, but this is the moment in every 165 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:26,620 space movie where the alien, bad idea to bring it on board, but they do, gets 166 00:11:26,620 --> 00:11:28,860 out. And now it's escaped containment. 167 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,200 But your issue is just with people. 168 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:38,400 I want to understand why people are pissed off. On a local level, it's 169 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,760 because you are living next to something, just like you would at a 170 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,980 power plant, that you can hurt you. On a bigger level... 171 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:49,020 Yes, the complaint is that it uses too much water. It takes an incredible 172 00:11:49,020 --> 00:11:54,560 amount of water to cool these incredible giant supercomputers that they use. 173 00:11:55,220 --> 00:11:58,440 I don't think it's the land. We have the land. I don't know why we're putting 174 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:02,420 them in places like near Louisiana, near cities. Why don't we build them in our 175 00:12:02,420 --> 00:12:03,980 51st state where it's cold? 176 00:12:04,220 --> 00:12:08,960 Well, absolutely. And they are building them in absolute wrong places. They're 177 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:10,960 building them on drought-restricted land. 178 00:12:12,780 --> 00:12:16,960 Our water is very precious to us, but you're talking they're building in these 179 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:22,960 very rural areas of Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, some of your finest farmland, 180 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:28,100 some of your finest cattle, all of that that matters to every one of us. So it's 181 00:12:28,100 --> 00:12:33,560 a really big deal if you're taking their water, their land, their sanctuary, 182 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,200 their natural environment, they're worried about their health. 183 00:12:38,829 --> 00:12:42,270 extraordinarily disruptive. Okay, but to put it in perspective, because I was 184 00:12:42,270 --> 00:12:47,050 reading about the water thing also for weeks, months, and then somebody put it 185 00:12:47,050 --> 00:12:48,350 out, and it's true. 186 00:12:48,810 --> 00:12:49,810 Golf. Right. 187 00:12:50,150 --> 00:12:51,270 Uses way more. 188 00:12:51,490 --> 00:12:56,950 Right. Golf and fucking raising, what are we, almonds is the thing we raise 189 00:12:56,950 --> 00:13:01,170 here. Like almonds and golf, I'm against both of them. 190 00:13:02,430 --> 00:13:03,430 Oh, God. 191 00:13:04,190 --> 00:13:05,190 What? 192 00:13:05,490 --> 00:13:06,550 Well, I mean, I'm not. 193 00:13:07,560 --> 00:13:08,980 I'm definitely against golf. 194 00:13:09,260 --> 00:13:12,480 I'm not against almonds. I'm against raising them where we don't have water 195 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:17,560 to do it. So we are, and it's like seven times the amount of water is being used 196 00:13:17,560 --> 00:13:18,560 on golf courses. 197 00:13:18,700 --> 00:13:24,160 Right. So maybe the issue itself is water. Well, you have to look at the 198 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,780 golf courses and its water usage compared to... 199 00:13:28,350 --> 00:13:32,270 smaller or medium-sized data centers. You can go look this stuff up all day 200 00:13:32,270 --> 00:13:37,290 long. Because the bigger data centers that we're talking about, an average 201 00:13:37,290 --> 00:13:43,090 golf course could use 500 million gallons average a year. But these super 202 00:13:43,090 --> 00:13:44,570 AI data centers? 203 00:13:45,230 --> 00:13:51,310 can go up to 1.5 billion gallons of water per year. So that's kind of an 204 00:13:51,310 --> 00:13:56,170 illusion to say that golf courses use more. If you're going to compare it to a 205 00:13:56,170 --> 00:14:00,830 smaller, medium-sized data center, great question, good argument. But if you're 206 00:14:00,830 --> 00:14:05,330 going to talk about these super data centers, it's not the same. It's going 207 00:14:05,330 --> 00:14:06,710 to be more water consumption. 208 00:14:07,390 --> 00:14:10,850 Yeah, I mean, it always makes me think of the bigger questions that are looming 209 00:14:10,850 --> 00:14:12,230 that I don't think ever get addressed. 210 00:14:12,550 --> 00:14:17,130 For example, water itself. I keep reading that we're running out of water, 211 00:14:17,230 --> 00:14:21,490 just water that we need here in big cities because we build them in places 212 00:14:21,490 --> 00:14:24,750 where the water doesn't flow naturally. So we're fighting with Nevada and 213 00:14:24,750 --> 00:14:30,450 Arizona from this river and this river. We tap the groundwater to the point 214 00:14:30,450 --> 00:14:36,050 where that's depleted. Correct. And yet so many people say these days. 215 00:14:36,540 --> 00:14:38,260 We've got to be having more babies. 216 00:14:40,460 --> 00:14:42,940 We are not having enough babies. 217 00:14:43,180 --> 00:14:48,600 People get to fucking... I mean, I don't get it. I don't get the cognitive 218 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:52,440 dissonance. You do know when you have more babies, they're going to need more 219 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,660 resources. Can we fit them on the planet? Yes, we can fit them. 220 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,060 But there's only so much water in that chunk. 221 00:14:59,260 --> 00:15:03,340 Yes, and I think that's what people are worried about. Listen, I'm working with 222 00:15:03,340 --> 00:15:06,860 them. I'm going to be down in all these communities. I'm hearing from every one 223 00:15:06,860 --> 00:15:10,560 of them. I'm hearing from city council members, mayor members, legislators. 224 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:16,560 They don't know what's happening here because nobody knew what was happening. 225 00:15:16,740 --> 00:15:22,120 But what I'm watching with the American people, Bill, is something I've never 226 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,320 seen in my 30 years. 227 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:30,260 We are dealing with as pretty close to a bipartisan issue as I've ever seen 228 00:15:30,260 --> 00:15:34,800 regarding these data centers. Not AI itself, the data centers. 229 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,820 Some places have outlawed them, right? Absolutely. New York has banned it. When 230 00:15:38,820 --> 00:15:43,880 I first started this, we had 79 municipalities that had moratoriums or 231 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:47,480 bans. Right. New York banned it, so they're not going to have to live next 232 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,960 week. But my guess is they're going to be using what the data centers... 233 00:15:51,500 --> 00:15:52,500 Correct. 234 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,580 Okay, so it's just one of those not in my backyard issues, isn't it? 235 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,200 Everybody's a hypocrite. Oh, we can't have it, but I will use it. 236 00:16:00,780 --> 00:16:02,560 Well, yes. 237 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,920 First of all, data centers need to be placed somewhere else. 238 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:11,880 in rural lands that are jeopardizing or taking farmland or jeopardizing our 239 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,000 water or actually jeopardizing people's sanctuary. 240 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,840 You know, we're entitled to that. We're entitled to show up to these city 241 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,720 councils that we've been completely blocked out of. And what I'm observing 242 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,280 with the people is there is a shift happening out there. 243 00:16:26,730 --> 00:16:30,810 And you've cornered them enough. We could have all these conversations, but 244 00:16:30,810 --> 00:16:35,090 at the end of the day, you're jeopardizing every resource that's 245 00:16:35,090 --> 00:16:41,270 valuable and meaningful to them. And so they're showing up in big opposition 246 00:16:41,270 --> 00:16:43,450 like I've never seen before. 247 00:16:43,770 --> 00:16:47,970 And so there's a movement happening around out there with the people. It 248 00:16:47,970 --> 00:16:51,250 sounds like it's going to be awesome when Julia Roberts plays you in this 249 00:16:51,250 --> 00:16:52,250 movie. 250 00:16:56,949 --> 00:17:00,350 Evan Brockovich, ladies and gentlemen. Let's meet our panel. 251 00:17:06,150 --> 00:17:07,770 Hey, gentlemen. 252 00:17:09,450 --> 00:17:14,349 How are you? He is the chief national correspondent at Puck and host of the 253 00:17:14,349 --> 00:17:17,470 Powers That Be podcast. Peter Hamby is over here. 254 00:17:18,069 --> 00:17:19,230 We'll see you again. 255 00:17:21,170 --> 00:17:26,400 And... He is a professor at NYU's Stern School of Business, podcast host to say 256 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:31,100 the least, and author of the book Notes on Being a Man. Scott Galloway, our 257 00:17:31,100 --> 00:17:32,100 friend this year. 258 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:40,160 So let me pick up on the AA discussion. I mean, 259 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,520 I'm sure there's many issues that people think are more important. I feel like if 260 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:48,180 I look back in time, I would be remiss if I didn't go, oh, you know what? The 261 00:17:48,180 --> 00:17:49,260 big issue that week. 262 00:17:49,930 --> 00:17:52,710 really was that AI escaped containment. 263 00:17:53,070 --> 00:17:58,130 I mean, this is what I keep hearing, that first it was OpenAI, that's JetGPT, 264 00:17:58,170 --> 00:18:01,930 they announced that, that's Sam Altman's company, that it got out. 265 00:18:02,410 --> 00:18:06,110 It got out and started hacking other companies that it wasn't supposed to do 266 00:18:06,110 --> 00:18:10,870 that. And then Anthropic, they said, okay, also, we were testing it, and it 267 00:18:10,870 --> 00:18:14,910 got out. And again, this escaped containment, this going rogue. 268 00:18:15,980 --> 00:18:20,440 Sam Altman uses the term singularity. I remember when Ray Kurzweil predicted 269 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:24,180 singularity would happen, I think, in 2028. This guy's unbelievable. 270 00:18:24,660 --> 00:18:29,040 Now, he defined it as when we and robots, machines sort of became the same 271 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:30,960 thing. We were just mixed all together. 272 00:18:31,500 --> 00:18:36,900 It's part of that. Sam says AI has become, I'm paraphrasing, it's when AI 273 00:18:36,900 --> 00:18:42,000 has become smarter than us and begins improving itself at a rate that we can't 274 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:43,000 control. 275 00:18:43,120 --> 00:18:44,120 Are we there? 276 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:46,420 Am I panicking for no reason? 277 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:52,640 The thing that intrigues me about Sam Altman when he says these things, and 278 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:56,160 it's a question of trust with him, I think, he's giving us updates in real 279 00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:00,320 time. Like the current models are the frontier models. That's what they call 280 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:04,680 them. We're in the frontier right now. And it feels like every other week Sam 281 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,240 Altman comes out and says, oops. 282 00:19:06,860 --> 00:19:09,640 Something bad happened. It could be a trust and safety issue. 283 00:19:10,060 --> 00:19:15,040 It could be that some weird company was using their API to create some creepy 284 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:19,680 sex bot. It could be that their model they were testing escaped the sandbox. 285 00:19:19,980 --> 00:19:25,860 By the way, he was saying, Sam, with this specific case, the model leapt into 286 00:19:25,860 --> 00:19:30,460 Hugging Face, another AI platform, that this was so powerful it escaped 287 00:19:30,460 --> 00:19:35,540 containment. It's also possible that they were rushing this model and testing 288 00:19:35,540 --> 00:19:36,900 it. And we're being sloppy. 289 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:41,540 Like, I just think with Sam Altman and OpenAI specifically, we could be in 290 00:19:41,540 --> 00:19:45,660 singularity or he could just be in a permanent PR hype cycle where he's 291 00:19:45,660 --> 00:19:49,840 talking about all the crazy things they're doing slash cleaning up whatever 292 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,660 mess they've made every day. It's really unclear. 293 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:56,120 And I think this is why President Trump won't do this. But I think we're going 294 00:19:56,120 --> 00:20:00,840 to get to the point where there will be some federal architecture regulating AI 295 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,320 companies because we can't just let these masters of the universe. 296 00:20:04,940 --> 00:20:08,820 like, hoard all of this information that could be hugely destructive. 297 00:20:09,140 --> 00:20:10,860 It sounds to me like it's already too late for that. 298 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,980 Yeah, but what you're talking about, this was more Jurassic Park than Skynet. 299 00:20:16,060 --> 00:20:17,380 Someone left the door open. 300 00:20:17,620 --> 00:20:19,700 And it's not sentience, it's competence. 301 00:20:20,020 --> 00:20:26,120 And while this AI tried to go places it wasn't supposed to go, I don't think 302 00:20:26,120 --> 00:20:28,880 that's the threat. I think there's a lot of AI catastrophizing that is 303 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:29,880 essentially fundraising. 304 00:20:30,380 --> 00:20:34,820 Look at how powerful my technology is, but invest in my company so I can sell 305 00:20:34,820 --> 00:20:37,960 shares and peace out to Cote d'Azur with Russian whores. Excuse me for saying 306 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:42,280 that. That's not especially helpful. 307 00:20:42,660 --> 00:20:48,340 The bigger threat of AI, in my view, is that our economy has become so 308 00:20:48,340 --> 00:20:51,100 incredibly concentrated on a small number of companies. 309 00:20:51,860 --> 00:20:58,040 40% of the SandP, 73% of earnings growth, 93% of our GDP is based on the capex of 310 00:20:58,040 --> 00:20:59,040 AI. 311 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,960 that if these things fail, America's become a giant bet on AI. 312 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:07,420 And look at what China's doing. China is doing the equivalent of steel dumping, 313 00:21:07,540 --> 00:21:08,479 but with AI. 314 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,460 They are dumping cheap LLMs. 315 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:11,820 What? Cheap what? 316 00:21:12,060 --> 00:21:15,940 So basically, they're dumping cheap AI into the United States. 317 00:21:16,300 --> 00:21:19,860 8% of token usage, which is a measurement for how much AI is being 318 00:21:19,860 --> 00:21:25,120 used, was from Chinese LLMs. What's an LLM? My mother spoke those. 319 00:21:25,780 --> 00:21:27,080 Anthropic chat GPT. 320 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:28,440 What? 321 00:21:28,810 --> 00:21:32,770 ChatGBT, they're called large language models, where you use to access AI. 322 00:21:33,210 --> 00:21:35,390 And tokens are the level of usage. 323 00:21:35,630 --> 00:21:41,250 8% of it in January 2025 came from Chinese models. Now it's 58%. Basically, 324 00:21:41,390 --> 00:21:45,330 Beijing is doing to Silicon Valley what Tokyo did to Detroit, but they've done 325 00:21:45,330 --> 00:21:49,310 it in 20 weeks versus 20 years. And that could crash the economy. 326 00:21:49,930 --> 00:21:51,330 So, not good news. 327 00:21:51,630 --> 00:21:53,770 Is this where I just... Okay. 328 00:21:53,970 --> 00:21:55,190 Let me... 329 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,440 Let me move on to something more pedestrian. 330 00:22:01,260 --> 00:22:06,140 We have to talk about Dr. Fauci, you know, and it's a shame that when COVID 331 00:22:06,140 --> 00:22:09,600 came, we were already past the point in this country where anything could be 332 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:16,440 discussed without partisanship entering its ugly head into the debate. 333 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:21,560 And we see that now. He was brought before Congress, Rand Paul, who, by the 334 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:22,560 way. 335 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:24,960 was always a libertarian, and yet he released Dr. 336 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:26,500 Fauci's personal diary. 337 00:22:26,780 --> 00:22:30,100 By the way, Rand Paul, next week I'm going to tear you a new asshole for 338 00:22:30,100 --> 00:22:31,100 that. 339 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:39,540 Put out my things on this, and then 340 00:22:39,540 --> 00:22:44,060 you can tell me I'm right or wrong. Anyway, for Rand Paul to be saying 341 00:22:44,060 --> 00:22:47,860 Fauci's responsible for every death... 342 00:22:48,190 --> 00:22:51,210 Can you just not always go full asshole, everybody? 343 00:22:52,230 --> 00:22:58,110 I don't blame Fauci took the fifth to every question he was asked this week. 344 00:22:58,430 --> 00:23:02,930 I don't blame him because it was an expedition to try to get him to commit 345 00:23:02,930 --> 00:23:04,010 perjury in some way. 346 00:23:04,410 --> 00:23:07,170 You know, a pandemic is the fog of war. 347 00:23:07,450 --> 00:23:09,750 You know, did he lie? He absolutely did. 348 00:23:09,950 --> 00:23:15,110 We absolutely caught him in lies, which I've said all along. OK, but. 349 00:23:15,500 --> 00:23:19,500 You know what? People sometimes lie to stop people from panicking or whatever. 350 00:23:19,740 --> 00:23:23,000 It's not right, and maybe there should be some repercussions. 351 00:23:23,300 --> 00:23:25,720 We've got to stop putting people in jail for everything. 352 00:23:25,940 --> 00:23:30,900 Okay. The other thing is, releasing the diary, it is the most embarrassing 353 00:23:30,900 --> 00:23:35,820 public releasing of anything since Anthony Weiner put out a picture of 354 00:23:35,820 --> 00:23:36,820 his... 355 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:50,220 This dick next to a baby. And, like, he's just so susceptible to flattery. 356 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:53,820 And for the people who say, you know, Trump, you know, he just lives by people 357 00:23:53,820 --> 00:23:58,540 kissing his ass. I got some of the Fauci's, from Fauci's diary, compared to 358 00:23:58,540 --> 00:24:00,140 some of the things Trump has said. 359 00:24:00,660 --> 00:24:03,520 Trump, a strong man came up to me, tough kind of a guy. 360 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:07,180 He said, I want to thank you, Mr. President. He had tears coming in his 361 00:24:07,180 --> 00:24:12,060 eyes. Fauci, the nurses went absolutely wild to see me. They were squealing and 362 00:24:12,060 --> 00:24:13,960 laughing and clapping. It was something to behold. 363 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:20,180 Trump, I've been on the cover of Time magazine 14 or 15 times. 364 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,220 I think we have an all-time record. 365 00:24:23,300 --> 00:24:26,240 Fauci, many print profiles and features on me. 366 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:27,920 Ridiculous. Too many to count. 367 00:24:31,120 --> 00:24:35,600 Fauci, I'm such a valued spokesperson and a good communicator. Trump, I have a 368 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:36,600 very good brain. 369 00:24:37,540 --> 00:24:39,120 So I'm just saying... 370 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:50,220 This kind of stuff is dangerous because he was having his ass kissed by one side 371 00:24:50,220 --> 00:24:55,200 in the debate. And I think he made decisions based on that. Do you agree? I 372 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:59,500 think it clearly went to his head. Fauci had been in Washington for decades and 373 00:24:59,500 --> 00:25:05,820 was a frontline leader on AIDS and HIV research and became a hero during COVID, 374 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:06,960 which we all remember. 375 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:11,880 And by the way, this whole thing is a statement against the notion of putting 376 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,300 partisanship in your personal politics. 377 00:25:14,899 --> 00:25:18,040 ahead of facts, evidence, logic, even intuition. 378 00:25:18,300 --> 00:25:23,380 How many people who had Ruth Bader Ginsburg merch in their house like had 379 00:25:23,380 --> 00:25:24,860 ever read an RBG dissent? 380 00:25:25,120 --> 00:25:31,300 You know, Fauci became this liberal figure, even though, as you said, we 381 00:25:31,300 --> 00:25:34,280 were in the fog of war. And, you know, we lived through this in California 382 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:38,160 where the beaches were closed, even though the beaches were actually like 383 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,000 that was a good place to go. People were. 384 00:25:40,530 --> 00:25:44,130 shamed for going to the beaches, and there's hypocrisy all around. I will 385 00:25:44,130 --> 00:25:48,490 say, unlike you two, I lived in Washington for a good long time. I had 386 00:25:48,490 --> 00:25:52,250 been to these parties that Anthony Fauci was going to, where he was calling A 387 00:25:52,250 --> 00:25:56,350 -list. He was going to A-list parties, and he was so giggly. He was hanging out 388 00:25:56,350 --> 00:25:57,630 with Mark Warner. 389 00:25:58,820 --> 00:25:59,820 Andrea Mitchell. 390 00:25:59,920 --> 00:26:00,920 Like, these parties. 391 00:26:01,100 --> 00:26:04,240 I know. And this is D.C., right? And I'm a former high school nerd. 392 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:09,100 All these nerds come together in this town, and I live there, and you just pat 393 00:26:09,100 --> 00:26:11,860 each other on the back, and you're so flattered. I will say, to his credit, 394 00:26:12,020 --> 00:26:13,340 we're talking about A.I. 395 00:26:13,540 --> 00:26:17,140 I kind of, you know, the diaries were a little very cringe. 396 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,620 But at least, you know, he's keeping journals in the year of our Lord 2020. 397 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:22,880 Good for him for writing. 398 00:26:27,820 --> 00:26:31,520 He was also getting peck from celebrities. 399 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:33,520 Julia Roberts. 400 00:26:33,980 --> 00:26:39,000 They're actual celebrities. No city is more susceptible to flattery from famous 401 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:43,740 and important people, attractive people, celebrities, than Washington, D.C. They 402 00:26:43,740 --> 00:26:46,660 love it. Anyone who's been to the White House Correspondents there knows that. 403 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:50,780 And Senator Paul, who filibustered the Patriot Act for 10 hours complaining it 404 00:26:50,780 --> 00:26:54,360 was a surveillance state, is fine with a surveillance state when he's holding a 405 00:26:54,360 --> 00:26:55,480 flashlight. Right. 406 00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:01,640 This diary was more vanity than villainy. And what you have when you 407 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,460 constantly, when you threaten 85-year-old public servants and 408 00:27:05,460 --> 00:27:10,620 disparage our institutions, you end up with cyclospora outbreaks where 409 00:27:10,620 --> 00:27:12,800 literally 45 states are shitting themselves. 410 00:27:13,540 --> 00:27:19,720 And the bumper sticker, instead of 411 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:25,640 having a thoughtful conversation around biosafety, We gave Republicans a TikTok 412 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:26,640 to raise money. 413 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:31,420 The bumper sticker America needs isn't prosecute Fauci. It's prevent fucking 414 00:27:31,420 --> 00:27:33,760 measles. On this topic, Annenberg. 415 00:27:38,380 --> 00:27:43,100 People, the public approval rating of Anthony Fauci has declined over recent 416 00:27:43,100 --> 00:27:44,920 years since COVID, since the height. 417 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,000 Annenberg did a study last year, a poll where they asked people, what do you 418 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:49,799 think about the CDC? 419 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:51,060 What do you think about your personal physician? 420 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:52,300 What do you think about Anthony Fauci? 421 00:27:52,830 --> 00:27:58,350 56% of the country still supports, likes, and believes Anthony Fauci is a 422 00:27:58,350 --> 00:28:01,950 leader in health. And they also compare him to RFK Jr., who is down, like, at 423 00:28:01,950 --> 00:28:03,050 the bottom, or Dr. 424 00:28:03,250 --> 00:28:06,950 Oz. Like, people think RFK Jr. and Dr. Oz are jokes. They still trust Anthony 425 00:28:06,950 --> 00:28:07,950 Fauci. Right. 426 00:28:08,350 --> 00:28:15,250 Okay, but having said that, he 427 00:28:15,250 --> 00:28:19,950 was caught in actual lies. He was telling people. And the big issue to me 428 00:28:19,950 --> 00:28:21,970 is the origin of this. 429 00:28:22,330 --> 00:28:23,330 Which is very important. 430 00:28:23,530 --> 00:28:24,449 How did it start? 431 00:28:24,450 --> 00:28:29,070 And he was telling people up front when it first began, it was from the wet 432 00:28:29,070 --> 00:28:32,330 markets. It could not, that's a conspiracy theory. If you say it, escape 433 00:28:32,330 --> 00:28:33,330 from the lab. 434 00:28:33,510 --> 00:28:38,170 And he knew better because we have him in his diary telling us what he was 435 00:28:38,170 --> 00:28:41,030 saying to other scientists who were saying, no, absolutely. 436 00:28:41,370 --> 00:28:44,350 And the real issue here is the gain of function research. 437 00:28:44,810 --> 00:28:48,790 And again, if we weren't so partisan, we could just say gain of function 438 00:28:48,790 --> 00:28:51,310 research. Obama told them not to do it. 439 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:55,280 I would always have said, don't do it. But it's a viable debate. 440 00:28:55,480 --> 00:29:00,280 It's a reasonable debate. Should we soup up something that's bad, this bacteria, 441 00:29:00,460 --> 00:29:01,460 to study it? 442 00:29:01,660 --> 00:29:05,400 Maybe if it got out, it would be even worse. I think that's what did happen. 443 00:29:06,340 --> 00:29:10,260 We could have had that debate in a rational way. We didn't want to do that. 444 00:29:10,380 --> 00:29:13,080 Because why? Because we make everything about race. 445 00:29:13,930 --> 00:29:17,730 And this is one of the repercussions in this. You couldn't say it escaped from 446 00:29:17,730 --> 00:29:20,970 the lab because that was the racist point of view somehow. 447 00:29:21,690 --> 00:29:28,590 That the entire Asian continent would have been somehow complicit in this 448 00:29:28,590 --> 00:29:32,230 because it escaped from it. It was ridiculous. But that is where they went. 449 00:29:32,390 --> 00:29:36,850 You were racist if you said this escaped from a lab. I think we've morphed from a 450 00:29:36,850 --> 00:29:41,130 place where we want to, you know, obviously not be prejudiced against 451 00:29:41,130 --> 00:29:42,490 anybody to where. 452 00:29:43,070 --> 00:29:45,290 People of color can never do any wrong. 453 00:29:45,530 --> 00:29:48,350 Something couldn't have escaped from an Asian lab. 454 00:29:48,770 --> 00:29:49,770 It was ridiculous. 455 00:29:51,410 --> 00:29:55,290 The possibility that 456 00:29:55,290 --> 00:30:02,090 it escaped from a Chinese lab or was weaponized was 457 00:30:02,090 --> 00:30:05,870 within the realm of possibility even at the time and should be debated. 458 00:30:06,190 --> 00:30:07,890 Racism went the other way, too. 459 00:30:08,430 --> 00:30:13,460 I mean, Donald Trump called it the Kung Flu. People here in Los Angeles... Asian 460 00:30:13,460 --> 00:30:18,840 folks were being assaulted across the country. Gun purchases by Asian 461 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:23,420 Americans went through the roof because they were scared of the backlash from 462 00:30:23,420 --> 00:30:26,420 the coronavirus. 463 00:30:26,980 --> 00:30:29,140 Well, I mean, it was called an... 464 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:34,500 flu after where it came from, as has every flu and disease throughout our 465 00:30:34,500 --> 00:30:38,000 history. West Nile. I mean, I could name all of them. 466 00:30:38,220 --> 00:30:39,840 Spanish flu. They just do that. 467 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,280 Yes, Trump, of course, made it worse. Duh. 468 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:48,060 But if you look at, like, the number of Asian hate crimes, I mean, it went up a 469 00:30:48,060 --> 00:30:51,580 certain percentage because it was a small number and then it went up, but it 470 00:30:51,580 --> 00:30:55,660 wasn't, it did not need to have this thrown off course. 471 00:30:56,280 --> 00:31:00,480 This much is my point by getting to something that killed millions of 472 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:04,040 people. We started talking about Fauci. I think the tens of millions of people 473 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:09,360 who are still alive because of PEPFAR and the millions of people who are able 474 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:15,300 to go HIV negative, including my oldest son's godparent, give him a hall pass on 475 00:31:15,300 --> 00:31:18,260 this one. I think there's a lot of public officials who have served our 476 00:31:18,260 --> 00:31:23,430 country. Much less effectively and nobly than an 85-year-old Anthony. Yeah. 477 00:31:24,050 --> 00:31:25,910 I don't think we should put him in jail. 478 00:31:27,270 --> 00:31:28,270 Okay. 479 00:31:33,190 --> 00:31:35,170 Moving on to something else very important. 480 00:31:35,450 --> 00:31:36,870 Raccoons have been on my mind. 481 00:31:38,050 --> 00:31:39,650 What? Wait. 482 00:31:42,030 --> 00:31:45,970 I think you're way ahead of me. We're talking about Jimothy. You know who 483 00:31:45,970 --> 00:31:46,970 Jimothy is? 484 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,560 He is the... Oh, this is... What a story. 485 00:31:49,820 --> 00:31:52,120 He's this raccoon. There he is, Timothy. 486 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:57,900 He's in the Seattle area. Yes, he has a spinal deformity. And so people have 487 00:31:57,900 --> 00:31:59,320 really taken to heart. 488 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:03,760 I mean, he's just a viral sensation. He's been beloved in the Seattle area. 489 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,580 I mean, you could... Even the Mariners had a night for Timothy. 490 00:32:07,900 --> 00:32:14,860 And... And I think we love him because this plucky scavenger 491 00:32:14,860 --> 00:32:15,860 just... 492 00:32:17,490 --> 00:32:18,590 Just keeps going. 493 00:32:18,810 --> 00:32:22,470 You know, he's a hero to me. And yet, you know what happens when someone's a 494 00:32:22,470 --> 00:32:23,470 hero in this country? 495 00:32:24,270 --> 00:32:27,090 We build them up and then we got to tear them down. 496 00:32:28,770 --> 00:32:32,190 And that, yeah, the haters come out of the woodwork. And that's what happened 497 00:32:32,190 --> 00:32:34,990 with poor Jimothy. They got a hold of his old tweets. 498 00:32:36,490 --> 00:32:37,490 Well, 499 00:32:39,890 --> 00:32:41,350 some of them haven't aged well. 500 00:32:41,610 --> 00:32:44,330 And some of them are bad because he's a raccoon. 501 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:51,020 Would you like to hear some of the... Okay, these are some of the... Some of 502 00:32:51,020 --> 00:32:55,680 them are not going to be... They may not be politically correct. Like here is 503 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,000 one. Sidney Sweeney. I wouldn't mind knocking over those cans. 504 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:10,360 Hot tip. Want to get laid? Take your girl to eat out of Bill Cosby's garbage. 505 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:21,660 Raccoons were in North America three million years before the white man. I 506 00:33:21,660 --> 00:33:23,840 don't hear anyone acknowledge stealing my land. 507 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:34,520 Doesn't have to be garbage, but Ariana Grande should eat something. 508 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:38,000 Oh, Jimothy. 509 00:33:39,140 --> 00:33:40,140 Jimothy. 510 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:45,440 I can't stand all the flopping in soccer. 511 00:33:46,110 --> 00:33:48,710 If I want to watch someone play dead, I'll fuck a possum. 512 00:33:50,890 --> 00:33:51,370 Chicago 513 00:33:51,370 --> 00:33:58,170 -style 514 00:33:58,170 --> 00:33:59,570 pizza can go fuck itself. 515 00:34:00,990 --> 00:34:07,790 Oh, I guess he must have gotten a bad... Defund 516 00:34:07,790 --> 00:34:08,790 animal control. 517 00:34:16,980 --> 00:34:22,300 Unpopular opinion. Some babies deserve rabies. Oh, give me these. 518 00:34:26,659 --> 00:34:30,860 There are things worse than dying, like dying and having Davy Crockett wear your 519 00:34:30,860 --> 00:34:32,020 asshole on his head. 520 00:34:38,159 --> 00:34:42,840 And is it me, or has J.D. Vance totally stolen my love? 521 00:34:53,009 --> 00:34:57,330 Okay. I mentioned in the monologue, a lot of benchmarks we've passed, little 522 00:34:57,330 --> 00:35:00,250 things that are changing in America. More people smoke pot. 523 00:35:00,690 --> 00:35:01,690 It's great. 524 00:35:02,690 --> 00:35:08,170 Here's a big one. We are now in a place in this country where gambling, we spend 525 00:35:08,170 --> 00:35:11,150 more money gambling than on everything else combined. 526 00:35:11,710 --> 00:35:16,590 Movies, TV, music, books, theater, museums. Well, I never spent a lot of 527 00:35:16,590 --> 00:35:21,870 money at a museum. Okay. But all of it combined, not as much. I mean, this is 528 00:35:21,870 --> 00:35:26,630 it. In my lifetime, gambling has gone from a place where you did it in one 529 00:35:26,630 --> 00:35:27,890 place in America, Nevada. 530 00:35:28,150 --> 00:35:29,530 You could do it in one place. 531 00:35:29,950 --> 00:35:33,210 To now, it's so ubiquitous. 532 00:35:33,890 --> 00:35:37,830 First of all, it's ruining sports. But I know, as I always say when you're on the 533 00:35:37,830 --> 00:35:40,430 show, you think a lot about young boys. 534 00:35:42,330 --> 00:35:48,270 And it is mostly a disease of young men. Over 50%. 535 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:53,080 of people under 50 have a account, have a gambling account. 536 00:35:53,700 --> 00:36:00,120 And, I mean, the floodgates opened in 2018 when the Supreme Court said that we 537 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:04,260 could do this, we could have this kind of online gambling and sports gambling. 538 00:36:05,100 --> 00:36:09,220 I think that's going to look worse than the Citizens United decision, maybe 539 00:36:09,220 --> 00:36:11,920 worse than the one where you said the president could do anything. 540 00:36:13,940 --> 00:36:17,180 That's a really bad decision, and now this is the world we're living in. 541 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:23,460 sports gambling is one thing. There's DraftKings, FanDuel, MGM, whatever, and 542 00:36:23,460 --> 00:36:26,620 obviously they're all in bed now with the leagues and they're advertising on 543 00:36:26,620 --> 00:36:31,860 ESPN because everyone there understands that more people will watch for longer 544 00:36:31,860 --> 00:36:35,880 periods of time, the NBA, NFL, whatever, if they have some skin in the game. 545 00:36:36,620 --> 00:36:39,760 I do think we have to talk about the idea of friction, though, and we have to 546 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,860 talk about the prediction markets as a huge piece of this. 547 00:36:43,260 --> 00:36:47,700 You have to be 18 years old to join Kelsey, which is where you can put... 548 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:51,860 prediction markets and bids down on sports, but they say it's not gambling. 549 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:53,000 But anything, right? 550 00:36:53,140 --> 00:36:55,220 You can bet on politics. 551 00:36:55,420 --> 00:36:59,320 You can bet on what Tim Cook will say on an earnings call. You can bet on a 552 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:04,380 Democratic primary in New Jersey. And then polymarket is even more of the Wild 553 00:37:04,380 --> 00:37:06,160 West. You can gamble on war. 554 00:37:06,420 --> 00:37:07,780 They say it's not gambling. 555 00:37:08,060 --> 00:37:12,220 They say that it is financial advice, the wisdom of the crowd. 556 00:37:13,380 --> 00:37:17,290 It's a way for... us to understand what the American people are thinking or 557 00:37:17,290 --> 00:37:18,290 whatever. 558 00:37:18,450 --> 00:37:21,290 It's not age-gated to 21. It's 18. 559 00:37:21,510 --> 00:37:27,330 44 attorneys general in this country call it an illegal sports book. 90% of 560 00:37:27,330 --> 00:37:28,950 it is sports gambling. 561 00:37:29,610 --> 00:37:33,110 Pizza Hut can go out and say they can put chicken wings on the menu and say 562 00:37:33,110 --> 00:37:34,110 we're a chicken restaurant. 563 00:37:34,490 --> 00:37:35,910 It's Pizza Hut. 564 00:37:36,130 --> 00:37:40,430 This is gambling and it's legalized. I'm pro-vite. 565 00:37:40,970 --> 00:37:42,710 Drinking, fun, whatever. Pro-vite. 566 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:44,900 There's something to be said for friction. 567 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:49,240 Like, there's something to be said for the fact that if you are a young man in 568 00:37:49,240 --> 00:37:54,220 this country on a college campus, you can't just go get Zin, Adderall, 569 00:37:54,340 --> 00:37:57,240 Celsius, spend all your time on social media gambling. 570 00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:02,000 Like, I hate to sound like a curmudgeon, old millennial, but, you know, back in 571 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:06,580 my day, you had to, like, ride your bike down the street to, like, you know, 572 00:38:06,580 --> 00:38:09,220 maybe go in your friend's dad's liquor cabinet or whatever. 573 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:15,660 It's so easy to do all of these things now, and again, being pro-vice, when you 574 00:38:15,660 --> 00:38:19,560 look at the full spectrum of access that young men, and by the way, young women, 575 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:24,240 gambling on calcium, putting prediction market bets on who's getting voted off 576 00:38:24,240 --> 00:38:25,580 Love Island, it's not just young men. 577 00:38:26,860 --> 00:38:31,500 You know, it's adding to our screen time, and I don't think it's a net 578 00:38:31,500 --> 00:38:34,620 positive for society. That's my obvious statement. 579 00:38:41,870 --> 00:38:46,030 3% of Americans say they have a gambling problem. It's 10% of men under the age 580 00:38:46,030 --> 00:38:46,968 of 30. 581 00:38:46,970 --> 00:38:50,430 Gambling, more than any other addiction, has the highest suicide rate. States 582 00:38:50,430 --> 00:38:53,270 that legalize gambling see an uptick of 30% in bankruptcy. 583 00:38:53,890 --> 00:38:58,910 The message I would have for young men is around risk adjustment. 584 00:38:59,110 --> 00:39:03,970 You need to take less risk on a screen and more risk off a screen. Don't 585 00:39:03,970 --> 00:39:06,490 retweet your aunt's conspiracy theory. 586 00:39:06,850 --> 00:39:10,550 Show up to your aunt's place and help her move. Don't watch as much. 587 00:39:11,370 --> 00:39:12,370 I'm not done. 588 00:39:13,370 --> 00:39:15,030 Don't watch as much porn. 589 00:39:15,730 --> 00:39:17,150 Don't swipe right. 590 00:39:17,590 --> 00:39:22,230 Approach a woman at a bar in a Starbucks line. Learn how to express romantic 591 00:39:22,230 --> 00:39:26,430 interest while making her feel safe. And get used to no, because that's what you 592 00:39:26,430 --> 00:39:27,770 need to get to a great yes. 593 00:39:30,870 --> 00:39:35,890 Don't shitpost someone online who has different political views than you. 594 00:39:36,170 --> 00:39:37,730 Vote. Don't gamble. 595 00:39:38,300 --> 00:39:42,240 Gamble with your person. Show up for jobs you're not qualified for. 596 00:39:43,260 --> 00:39:47,020 Apply to colleges that you aren't qualified to get into. 597 00:39:47,740 --> 00:39:51,640 I use this as a prop. This is a casino with different games. 598 00:39:51,860 --> 00:39:54,460 If you play it long enough, you're always going to lose. 599 00:39:54,740 --> 00:40:00,140 In real life, in relationships, in friendships, in taking risks, you play 600 00:40:00,140 --> 00:40:03,140 this game long enough, you're going to win. 601 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:06,040 Less risk online, more risk offline. 602 00:40:18,250 --> 00:40:21,530 I'm glad you draw that line from gambling to not getting laid. 603 00:40:22,410 --> 00:40:28,610 It's true, because I think you're right. To me, it's the psychological damage of 604 00:40:28,610 --> 00:40:31,710 thinking that life is this fatalistic. 605 00:40:32,050 --> 00:40:38,770 And whenever I read about Gen X, I mean Gen Z these days, it seems like a lot of 606 00:40:38,770 --> 00:40:41,830 them think the game is rigged. We can't get ahead. 607 00:40:42,310 --> 00:40:45,210 The other generations took all the good stuff. 608 00:40:45,890 --> 00:40:47,150 We're left with the crumbs. 609 00:40:47,670 --> 00:40:48,810 we might as well gamble. 610 00:40:49,270 --> 00:40:53,710 And yet, I read in the paper last week that more businesses applied for, new 611 00:40:53,710 --> 00:40:57,470 businesses applied for licenses than any time since they've been keeping record. 612 00:40:57,610 --> 00:41:01,550 5.7 million applications for new businesses. 613 00:41:01,810 --> 00:41:04,050 So, that's part of AI. 614 00:41:04,550 --> 00:41:07,390 Part of that is because AI makes starting a business easier. 615 00:41:07,630 --> 00:41:09,690 But part of it is just we still live in America. 616 00:41:09,990 --> 00:41:12,010 And kids, you still can get ahead. 617 00:41:12,510 --> 00:41:14,370 You're right. Get off the phone. 618 00:41:14,630 --> 00:41:15,990 Get off. Stop, damn it. 619 00:41:16,890 --> 00:41:21,730 That's a lot of businesses that people, because for all the bad in America, I 620 00:41:21,730 --> 00:41:25,070 know we're terrible, terrible, terrible, but it is still a place that people come 621 00:41:25,070 --> 00:41:29,290 to because if you get an idea, if you see a niche in the market that needs to 622 00:41:29,290 --> 00:41:33,250 be filled, you can do something about it. Now, most businesses fail, but a lot 623 00:41:33,250 --> 00:41:37,370 of them don't. Yeah, but the number one key to probably the quote-unquote crisis 624 00:41:37,370 --> 00:41:41,430 among young men is helping young men recognize and acknowledge they have more 625 00:41:41,430 --> 00:41:42,430 agency. 626 00:41:42,620 --> 00:41:44,140 than most young men throughout history. 627 00:41:44,340 --> 00:41:48,960 And just attaching it back to sex again, the thing I hate most is the incel 628 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:53,900 movement, involuntarily celibate. Well, spoiler alert, 99% of men through 99% of 629 00:41:53,900 --> 00:41:58,920 history have been involuntarily incelibate. I was involuntarily celibate 630 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:00,540 for the first 19 years of my life. 631 00:42:00,940 --> 00:42:07,040 And only 40% of men have reproduced throughout history, 80% of women. Men 632 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:08,420 don't have a birthright to reproduce. 633 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:13,980 But here's the thing. If you try hard, if you level up, if you get in shape, if 634 00:42:13,980 --> 00:42:16,960 you get a job, if you have a kindness practice, if you're willing to take 635 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:20,040 risks, you are going to do something wonderful. And that has become 636 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:25,480 involuntarily or voluntarily infallible. Men have more agency than they've ever 637 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:29,540 had. And it's up to them. Get out there. Welcome to the work week. It is hard to 638 00:42:29,540 --> 00:42:32,400 get laid. And women force you to be better men. 639 00:42:32,620 --> 00:42:34,740 And there's nothing wrong with that. Get out there. 640 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:47,540 You have a personal story? You want to hear a personal story? Yeah, yeah. I 641 00:42:47,540 --> 00:42:51,420 mean, you were inspired by his speech about getting laid. Let's hear your 642 00:42:51,420 --> 00:42:52,420 story. 643 00:42:54,900 --> 00:42:55,900 I'm married. 644 00:42:56,040 --> 00:43:00,340 I was on a bachelor party at the Alabama-Tennessee game in Tuscaloosa 645 00:43:00,340 --> 00:43:01,340 last year. Was there a raccoon? 646 00:43:01,940 --> 00:43:02,940 No raccoon. 647 00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:07,000 My buddy Ethan's bachelor party, a bunch of guys who were playing beer pong 648 00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:08,960 tailgating. They'd never been to an SEC tailgate. 649 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:10,360 We go in the stadium. 650 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:12,280 We have a bunch of booze left over. 651 00:43:12,860 --> 00:43:15,020 No one's drinking it because we've got to go in the stadium. 652 00:43:15,420 --> 00:43:18,900 There's a University of Tennessee sorority visiting, tailgating next to 653 00:43:18,900 --> 00:43:22,580 us. I go over to them and I say, hey, y'all, we're going into the game. Do you 654 00:43:22,580 --> 00:43:25,120 guys want this? Like, I'm not hitting on you, whatever. 655 00:43:26,540 --> 00:43:32,540 These young women were like, thank you for talking to us. We've been standing 656 00:43:32,540 --> 00:43:36,040 here this whole time, not like necessarily looking at our group, but 657 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:36,799 just like. 658 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:40,200 They validated what Scott is saying in real life. That's why I think it's a 659 00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:41,019 valuable anecdote. 660 00:43:41,020 --> 00:43:46,900 They're saying it's a lot of men, a lot of our fellow Vols of Tennessee, don't 661 00:43:46,900 --> 00:43:49,300 come up and talk to us. No one flirts with us. They don't come to bars. 662 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:53,700 Look, I assume the data is there to back that up, but it was striking to see that 663 00:43:53,700 --> 00:43:57,600 in real life, and they were just very grateful, not for the booze, just that 664 00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:01,540 we came over and said, hi, and that was like a shock to them, and that also 665 00:44:01,540 --> 00:44:02,540 shocked me. 666 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:12,660 So the upshot of the story is you actually could have gotten laid. 667 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:22,720 A lesson I'll pass on to the young 668 00:44:22,720 --> 00:44:25,800 Tennessee Vols. We're going to run out of time before I do. 669 00:44:26,100 --> 00:44:30,340 Congratulations are in order to you, Mr. Scott Galloway, because I heard that you 670 00:44:30,340 --> 00:44:34,420 have been appointed to the Board of Regents of the California school system. 671 00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:39,480 Colin? Governor Newsom did that? 672 00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:42,140 Yeah, Governor Newsom did that. 673 00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:47,200 Went to school down the street, 74% admissions rate at UCLA when I applied. 674 00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:51,440 Raised by a single immigrant mother, lived and died a secretary. 675 00:44:52,100 --> 00:44:55,560 The thing that changed my life was California taxpayers and the regents of 676 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:57,340 UC, so it's a big honor for me. 677 00:44:57,940 --> 00:45:02,220 And you still, you still taste the food again? 678 00:45:04,340 --> 00:45:05,340 All right. 679 00:45:06,130 --> 00:45:10,350 Are colleges the hotbed of indoctrination as we hear, or are they 680 00:45:10,350 --> 00:45:11,350 better than we hear? 681 00:45:11,710 --> 00:45:14,950 I think they're better than you hear. It's not indoctrination that's the 682 00:45:14,950 --> 00:45:18,330 threat. It's homogenization, and that is four out of five faculty members say a 683 00:45:18,330 --> 00:45:20,610 conservative member wouldn't fit in. 684 00:45:21,030 --> 00:45:24,930 And I think that we're doing a disservice to young people, whether they 685 00:45:24,930 --> 00:45:28,170 adopt a progressive ideology or not, of not providing them with thoughtful 686 00:45:28,170 --> 00:45:29,170 opposition. 687 00:45:29,550 --> 00:45:32,410 That helps them be more critical thinkers. And one of the more dangerous 688 00:45:32,410 --> 00:45:35,930 things... Aren't you just describing indoctrination in a different way if 689 00:45:35,930 --> 00:45:39,750 there is no balance of thought? 690 00:45:39,990 --> 00:45:43,390 We need balance. And even more than that, we need to teach young people that 691 00:45:43,390 --> 00:45:46,550 if someone doesn't believe in your political views, it doesn't mean they're 692 00:45:46,550 --> 00:45:50,010 morally inferior to you. Right. I think our job is not to create woke students. 693 00:45:50,010 --> 00:45:51,350 Exactly. It's to create warriors. 694 00:45:52,710 --> 00:45:57,270 Well said. And congratulations on your appointment. We need you out here. All 695 00:45:57,270 --> 00:45:58,270 right.

And I do mean it. 713 00:47:30,970 --> 00:47:32,770 You're yelling at glass and plastic. 714 00:47:33,030 --> 00:47:37,070 It's like bumping into your coffee table and saying, you know what, let's take 715 00:47:37,070 --> 00:47:38,070 this outside. 716 00:47:46,370 --> 00:47:50,770 New World, if you must go to a funeral, avoid saying, he would have wanted it 717 00:47:50,770 --> 00:47:51,770 that way. 718 00:47:53,070 --> 00:47:57,930 It's such a tired old platitude that dismisses valid feelings of pain. 719 00:47:58,370 --> 00:48:03,600 That being said, Lindsey Graham's coffin being carried into the rotunda by a 720 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,340 group of men who look a lot like the village people. 721 00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:09,380 He would have wanted it that way. 722 00:48:17,420 --> 00:48:24,200 And finally, new rule, Donald Trump has told one trillion lies, 723 00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:27,900 but when he says the Democratic Socialists of America are actually 724 00:48:27,900 --> 00:48:30,200 communists, That's not one of them. 725 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:35,620 And it's not hard to prove it, just by quoting the DSA and their candidate. 726 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:39,880 It gives me no pleasure to have to do this. I'd much rather keep going the 727 00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:41,760 good vibes for my summer vacation. 728 00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:46,240 I had an awesome one, by the way. I totally got a girlfriend at Bible camp. 729 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:49,560 However... 730 00:48:56,910 --> 00:49:01,510 Right before we left, Vice President J.D. Vance was on the show, and I told 731 00:49:01,510 --> 00:49:06,710 him that if the Democratic Party keeps going in the direction of the DSA, my 732 00:49:06,710 --> 00:49:10,970 vote was in play. And all I heard all vacation was, oh, my God, you're a 733 00:49:10,970 --> 00:49:15,590 Republican now. No, that's not what I said. I said in play. 734 00:49:15,810 --> 00:49:17,010 And here's why. 735 00:49:17,330 --> 00:49:22,250 Because not a week goes by where I don't read about some newly chosen, exciting 736 00:49:22,250 --> 00:49:24,410 new face in the Democratic Party. 737 00:49:25,020 --> 00:49:30,420 And then when that face opens its mouth, the Communist Manifesto or some other 738 00:49:30,420 --> 00:49:31,840 crazy shit comes out. 739 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:39,420 Again, let's just read the quote. The DSA platform says, you work as much as 740 00:49:39,420 --> 00:49:41,320 you are able and no more than needed. 741 00:49:41,660 --> 00:49:45,940 If that was any closer to Karl Marx's dictum, from each according to his 742 00:49:45,940 --> 00:49:49,800 abilities to each according to his needs, they'd be sued for plagiarism. 743 00:49:57,230 --> 00:50:02,750 Not to leave any doubt, New York Mayor Mondani once tweeted Karl Marx's words 744 00:50:02,750 --> 00:50:05,870 exactly. They're not trying to hide it. 745 00:50:06,070 --> 00:50:12,490 Their most popular influencer, Hasan Piker, thinks communism is so groovy. He 746 00:50:12,490 --> 00:50:17,190 laments the fall of the two of the most murderous regimes in history, the Soviet 747 00:50:17,190 --> 00:50:19,190 Union and Chairman Mao's China. 748 00:50:20,010 --> 00:50:24,210 Man, Dami's aide, his top aide, Thea Weaver, said, if you don't believe in 749 00:50:24,210 --> 00:50:29,410 the government's sacred right to seize property, it's over. And impoverish the 750 00:50:29,410 --> 00:50:30,410 white middle class. 751 00:50:31,370 --> 00:50:33,750 What? That's a goal? 752 00:50:35,410 --> 00:50:38,750 You know you're supposed to scare people into voting for you, right? 753 00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:46,900 One of the new, soon-to-be Democratic Congress people, Darlesia Chevalier, 754 00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:52,560 supports seizing all properties from landlords and said, seize the means of 755 00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:53,560 production. 756 00:50:53,700 --> 00:50:57,560 Mendami has said the end goal is seizing the means of production. 757 00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:00,480 I think they want to seize the means of production. 758 00:51:03,060 --> 00:51:07,360 Now, maybe you missed that in school or missed school altogether, but that's 759 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:08,360 communism. 760 00:51:08,810 --> 00:51:11,970 That's communism, which we tried, and it doesn't work. 761 00:51:12,190 --> 00:51:16,050 Parties can change sometimes, you know. You have to keep up. 762 00:51:16,390 --> 00:51:17,870 Who freed the slaves? 763 00:51:18,870 --> 00:51:25,570 Republicans, Lincoln, Democrats were the racist party back then. But then JFK got 764 00:51:25,570 --> 00:51:26,570 elected, and it switched. 765 00:51:27,470 --> 00:51:33,250 The DSA itself has switched, even five years ago. It shunned communists. That 766 00:51:33,250 --> 00:51:35,430 changed. Things changed. 767 00:51:36,170 --> 00:51:40,750 Now the coalition within the DSA called the Marxist Unity Group is in 768 00:51:40,750 --> 00:51:45,790 ascendance. And I must take them at their word when their words include, our 769 00:51:45,790 --> 00:51:50,330 commitment is to the long-term struggle for a fully liberated classless society 770 00:51:50,330 --> 00:51:51,990 in a word, communism. 771 00:51:53,770 --> 00:51:56,950 What do they have to do? Tweet out, elect more communists? 772 00:51:57,990 --> 00:51:59,890 Oh yeah, Sia Weaver did that. 773 00:52:01,150 --> 00:52:02,150 Yes. 774 00:52:02,710 --> 00:52:04,430 Good, I'm glad you're shocked. 775 00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:09,080 People got to realize this is going on. 776 00:52:15,180 --> 00:52:20,580 Yes, my vote is in play. I'm not voting for anyone who thinks the wrong side won 777 00:52:20,580 --> 00:52:24,880 the Cold War or cheers for the Intifada like it's the World Cup. 778 00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:30,120 It's so ironic from the people who obsess about colonization. You know 779 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:32,840 what's being colonized now? The Democratic Party. 780 00:52:39,720 --> 00:52:44,760 Last month, two Democratic congressmen released an open pledge they wanted 781 00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:46,980 their fellow Democratic members to sign. 782 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:51,860 It said, we are capitalists, not socialists. We want safety, not 783 00:52:51,860 --> 00:52:54,640 lawlessness. We are proud, not ashamed of America. 784 00:52:55,200 --> 00:53:01,080 These should not be hard words for a congressional Democrat to sign on to. 785 00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:02,420 You know how many did? 786 00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:04,120 Eight. 787 00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:06,600 Eight out of 212. 788 00:53:07,450 --> 00:53:11,030 Guys, really, there's got to be an easier way to lose the swing state. 789 00:53:19,550 --> 00:53:26,370 And, no, this nonsense is not where most Democratic politicians are right now, 790 00:53:26,450 --> 00:53:32,490 but it's also becoming a raging fire festival in the party that neither is 791 00:53:32,490 --> 00:53:33,490 anyone putting out. 792 00:53:33,870 --> 00:53:36,350 People are actually getting elected now. 793 00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:41,340 who literally don't think we should have police or prisons or borders. 794 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:45,120 And again, they're not lying about who they are. The media is. 795 00:53:45,560 --> 00:53:51,500 Ask Ms. Chevalier about the border. She says, yes, literally abolish the border. 796 00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:57,000 You know, if you call a woman a whore and everyone gasps, and then the woman 797 00:53:57,000 --> 00:53:59,620 says, oh, no, he's right, I'm literally a prostitute. 798 00:54:03,820 --> 00:54:04,820 Believe her. 799 00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:12,940 This crowd literally wants to get rid of our form of government, the Senate, but 800 00:54:12,940 --> 00:54:14,280 also, and I quote, 801 00:54:15,140 --> 00:54:20,900 replace the president and Supreme Court with an executive and judiciary chosen 802 00:54:20,900 --> 00:54:22,900 by and subordinate to Congress. 803 00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:28,080 Yeah, no biggie. Just taking the very essence of our government, which is 804 00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:33,220 three branches checking each other and shit canning two and a half of them. Who 805 00:54:33,220 --> 00:54:34,340 could be this nuts? 806 00:54:34,970 --> 00:54:39,870 I'll tell you who, morons who are still wearing COVID masks in 2026. 807 00:54:48,890 --> 00:54:53,490 This photo is from the DSA meeting in Denver three weeks ago. 808 00:54:54,930 --> 00:54:59,590 Okay, I'm just going to say it.
