1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,320
I'm only a dime bag of potato chips.

2
00:00:02,540 --> 00:00:04,360
Adam Curry, John C.

3
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:04,920
Dvorak.

4
00:00:05,060 --> 00:00:07,300
It's Sunday, January 4th, 2026.

5
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:09,960
It's your award-winning Gitmo Nation Media Assassination

6
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:11,300
episode 1831.

7
00:00:11,660 --> 00:00:13,160
This is no agenda.

8
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:16,580
Bathing in warm collectivism.

9
00:00:16,900 --> 00:00:18,880
And broadcasting live from the heart of the

10
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:20,980
textile country here in FEMA Region No.

11
00:00:21,080 --> 00:00:22,800
6 in the morning, everybody.

12
00:00:23,140 --> 00:00:23,940
I'm Adam Curry.

13
00:00:24,180 --> 00:00:26,220
And from northern Silicon Valley where they're all

14
00:00:26,220 --> 00:00:28,400
crying to bring back Maduro.

15
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:29,140
Hello, I'm John C.

16
00:00:29,260 --> 00:00:29,720
Dvorak.

17
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:31,740
It's crackpot and buzzkill.

18
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:32,960
In the morning.

19
00:00:34,160 --> 00:00:36,440
Yeah, finally something good happens that's not on

20
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:36,980
a show day.

21
00:00:37,060 --> 00:00:37,520
That was good.

22
00:00:37,620 --> 00:00:40,900
That was well-timed, Mr. President.

23
00:00:42,100 --> 00:00:42,620
Yes.

24
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,740
And, and, right after the oil baron called

25
00:00:46,740 --> 00:00:48,960
it, everybody picked up on that.

26
00:00:49,380 --> 00:00:49,900
Hey, man.

27
00:00:51,220 --> 00:00:52,820
Trump must be listening to you guys.

28
00:00:53,740 --> 00:00:54,420
He might be.

29
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:58,240
It was hilarious.

30
00:00:58,860 --> 00:00:59,780
No, this is good.

31
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:00,900
Everyone's checking in.

32
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:02,880
Hey, what do the boys have to say

33
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:03,459
about it?

34
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,240
I have a ton, too many, I have

35
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:08,660
way too many clips on this.

36
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:09,640
Well, you do.

37
00:01:09,940 --> 00:01:13,140
And I've gotten, I've gotten the, I caught

38
00:01:13,140 --> 00:01:15,200
it right at the beginning, luckily.

39
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,640
Because it was, I was working on the

40
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:21,720
newsletter and could have easily have missed it.

41
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:23,300
Because it took, it was fast.

42
00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:25,600
I think this is, they grab the guy,

43
00:01:25,700 --> 00:01:27,100
they make a lot of explosions.

44
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,060
No, no, no, no, they didn't grab him.

45
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:30,100
They captured him.

46
00:01:30,580 --> 00:01:31,280
Words matter.

47
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:31,920
Captured.

48
00:01:32,780 --> 00:01:33,140
Kidnapped.

49
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:36,840
Extracted is the way I saw it, but

50
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:37,400
we'll get to that.

51
00:01:37,580 --> 00:01:39,100
I, you know, I was thinking the same

52
00:01:39,100 --> 00:01:39,360
word.

53
00:01:39,420 --> 00:01:40,440
I was going to bring it up, but

54
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,360
you beat me to it, which is, was

55
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:43,260
it an extraction?

56
00:01:43,820 --> 00:01:44,580
I think so.

57
00:01:45,100 --> 00:01:45,860
I think so.

58
00:01:48,580 --> 00:01:50,200
There's a lot of things to this.

59
00:01:51,380 --> 00:01:53,800
And the reason why I say extraction, I

60
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,240
don't know if you saw, there was some

61
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,020
video that I caught of him, of Maduro

62
00:01:59,020 --> 00:02:02,720
being walked down some hallway in New York.

63
00:02:02,940 --> 00:02:04,900
And he's like, hey everybody, happy new year.

64
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:06,760
Now, of course, that could have been AI,

65
00:02:06,900 --> 00:02:07,360
who knows.

66
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:09,199
But it looked authentic.

67
00:02:10,060 --> 00:02:13,080
And I'm thinking he's going to spill the

68
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,060
goods on Smartmatic and Dominion.

69
00:02:15,860 --> 00:02:18,120
You know, that would certainly get him a

70
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:18,740
better deal.

71
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,560
Yeah, and he can prove the 2020 election

72
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:24,380
was rigged.

73
00:02:24,460 --> 00:02:24,940
Yes, yes.

74
00:02:24,940 --> 00:02:26,100
Boom, he's good to go.

75
00:02:26,180 --> 00:02:27,860
That's what I thought would be an interesting

76
00:02:27,860 --> 00:02:28,160
one.

77
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,340
But the thing that really bothered me about

78
00:02:30,340 --> 00:02:33,960
all of this is our, even Marco Rubio,

79
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,140
and when you've gone through your clips, I

80
00:02:36,140 --> 00:02:37,680
have some of the stuff from the morning

81
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:41,760
shows from this morning, from Stephanopoulos and Manhans

82
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,600
Welker with Rubio, who is good.

83
00:02:45,740 --> 00:02:48,240
I mean, Rubio is just, he is very

84
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:49,620
good when it comes to talking.

85
00:02:49,640 --> 00:02:50,500
He's amazingly slick.

86
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:51,420
He is very slick.

87
00:02:51,640 --> 00:02:53,060
Well, he's another one.

88
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,180
He's a performer.

89
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:55,480
He was, you know, a dancer.

90
00:02:55,620 --> 00:02:55,720
Yeah, he's a dancer.

91
00:02:56,060 --> 00:02:56,160
Yes.

92
00:02:56,980 --> 00:02:59,360
He's another tiny dancer.

93
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,420
The thing that bothers me is that no

94
00:03:04,420 --> 00:03:07,740
one ever explains the simple history.

95
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,200
And I'm going to give you a little

96
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:14,700
audible, a spoken word history from like 1990.

97
00:03:14,860 --> 00:03:17,360
It doesn't take very long because when it

98
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,640
comes to what this really was about, and

99
00:03:20,640 --> 00:03:22,820
I'm pretty sure we can both agree that

100
00:03:22,820 --> 00:03:24,780
there's a lot of North Sea Nexus stuff

101
00:03:24,780 --> 00:03:25,500
that's in here.

102
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,700
What are the British banking connections?

103
00:03:27,700 --> 00:03:30,100
You know, what are the real drug flows?

104
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:31,720
All of that's going to be interesting.

105
00:03:31,940 --> 00:03:35,760
The Smartmatic software, Dominion voting machines, and yes,

106
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:36,640
the oil.

107
00:03:37,300 --> 00:03:39,840
And the president just, I don't know why

108
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,300
he, I mean, he could do it.

109
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,720
He could just explain how they stole our

110
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:45,040
oil.

111
00:03:45,100 --> 00:03:46,540
But instead he just says this.

112
00:03:47,340 --> 00:03:49,320
We're going to run the country until such

113
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:52,560
time as we can do a safe, proper,

114
00:03:52,740 --> 00:03:55,020
and judicious transitions.

115
00:03:55,020 --> 00:03:59,060
We're going to have our very large United

116
00:03:59,060 --> 00:04:02,120
States oil companies, the biggest anywhere in the

117
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:06,660
world, go in, spend billions of dollars, fix

118
00:04:06,660 --> 00:04:11,540
the badly broken infrastructure, the oil infrastructure, and

119
00:04:11,540 --> 00:04:13,560
start making money for the country.

120
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,579
We build Venezuela oil industry with American talent,

121
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:18,620
drive, and skill.

122
00:04:18,620 --> 00:04:22,340
And the socialist regime stole it from us

123
00:04:22,340 --> 00:04:26,240
during those previous administrations, and they stole it

124
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:26,900
through force.

125
00:04:27,100 --> 00:04:29,760
This constituted one of the largest thefts of

126
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,940
American property in the history of our country.

127
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:33,320
Absolutely true.

128
00:04:33,840 --> 00:04:35,360
But no one explains it.

129
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:36,980
Rubio doesn't explain it.

130
00:04:37,060 --> 00:04:38,380
Hegseth can't explain it.

131
00:04:38,420 --> 00:04:40,460
He's just going, F around and find out.

132
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:41,080
Am I first?

133
00:04:41,180 --> 00:04:41,500
Yeah.

134
00:04:41,780 --> 00:04:42,120
Okay.

135
00:04:42,660 --> 00:04:43,540
We like that.

136
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,100
We got all the ladies all, oh, yeah,

137
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:47,000
oh, he's a tough guy.

138
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,180
The news media won't tell you, of course.

139
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,200
So let me just give a quick, brief

140
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,320
rundown, interject if you hear I said anything

141
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:54,680
wrong.

142
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,300
But I think it's, I mean, because this

143
00:04:56,300 --> 00:04:57,180
goes back to 1976.

144
00:04:57,740 --> 00:04:59,180
But if we stay in 1990.

145
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,020
Actually, it goes before, it goes actually way

146
00:05:01,020 --> 00:05:01,300
back.

147
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,440
It's a 45, 47 or something.

148
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:04,380
It goes way back.

149
00:05:04,860 --> 00:05:09,480
But in 1990, U.S. oil companies, Chevron,

150
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:14,540
ConocoPhillips, and ExxonMobil, they decided we're going to

151
00:05:14,540 --> 00:05:18,700
invest in production, in extraction, production of this.

152
00:05:19,220 --> 00:05:21,600
I mean, I've seen video, this really thick,

153
00:05:21,820 --> 00:05:24,800
tar-like oil, which it's just goo, man.

154
00:05:25,020 --> 00:05:26,200
It's classic Brent.

155
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:27,600
It's goo.

156
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:28,740
Yeah.

157
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:30,900
All the stuff that comes out of the

158
00:05:30,900 --> 00:05:32,820
ocean typically looks like that.

159
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,380
And it was a really big risk.

160
00:05:34,380 --> 00:05:36,780
At the time, oil prices were around $40,

161
00:05:36,900 --> 00:05:37,180
$50.

162
00:05:37,620 --> 00:05:39,420
They varied one year to the other, but

163
00:05:39,420 --> 00:05:40,140
on average.

164
00:05:40,140 --> 00:05:44,380
So, they set up, Venezuela set up PDVSA,

165
00:05:44,540 --> 00:05:46,440
and they signed the contracts with these three

166
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:47,200
big companies.

167
00:05:47,840 --> 00:05:50,420
With massive investment in the Orinoco belt.

168
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:52,080
And the deal was pretty simple.

169
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,860
Venezuela has 100% ownership over the oil,

170
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:57,460
but we do a 60-40 split.

171
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,460
So, American companies get 60%, and Venezuela gets

172
00:06:01,460 --> 00:06:01,820
40.

173
00:06:02,140 --> 00:06:03,620
And then they put up the billions of

174
00:06:03,620 --> 00:06:05,240
dollars to set it all up.

175
00:06:05,420 --> 00:06:06,400
Everybody was happy.

176
00:06:06,900 --> 00:06:09,700
Especially in 2000, oil prices start rising.

177
00:06:09,700 --> 00:06:10,680
It's at 100.

178
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:16,000
And then Chavez, the predecessor to Maduro, he

179
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,540
declares the Bolivarian Revolution.

180
00:06:19,340 --> 00:06:21,960
And, hey, everybody, we're super socialist now.

181
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:23,380
We're going to give you everything for free.

182
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:24,440
Sound like Mandami.

183
00:06:24,780 --> 00:06:26,140
It's going to be fantastic.

184
00:06:26,380 --> 00:06:27,100
It's groovy.

185
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:33,200
2001, they implemented new laws, and PDVSA is

186
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:34,620
now control of operations.

187
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:36,880
They kicked out the U.S. management.

188
00:06:37,740 --> 00:06:41,980
In 2002, this is the Venezuelan petroleum company.

189
00:06:42,820 --> 00:06:45,740
The employees actually protested and went on strike.

190
00:06:45,840 --> 00:06:47,040
They said, you can't do this.

191
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,240
Companies that refused, there was only one, really,

192
00:06:50,340 --> 00:06:53,020
I think, Chevron, had all their assets frozen.

193
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:54,660
Everything was taken over.

194
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,500
And then oil revenues collapsed by 75%

195
00:06:58,500 --> 00:07:00,360
because no one knew how to operate this

196
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:00,660
stuff.

197
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,660
Even better, Chavez broke the strike, fired 18

198
00:07:06,660 --> 00:07:10,160
,000 engineers and rig workers, and he changed

199
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,240
the split 70% for us.

200
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,040
Some say a little less, like 28%, but

201
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:17,720
around 30% for the U.S. companies.

202
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,120
But we're also doubling the royalties, so you've

203
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:21,500
got to pay us 30% royalties.

204
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:23,880
And there's a 50% tax rate on

205
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:24,640
everything you make.

206
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:26,820
So they were losing money.

207
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,960
2007, Chavez seizes all the oil assets.

208
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,620
These companies could only file lawsuits, and they

209
00:07:33,620 --> 00:07:34,800
went to international courts.

210
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,580
And they eventually won after five years, but

211
00:07:37,580 --> 00:07:39,140
they got about a billion dollars each.

212
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:40,460
It was no good.

213
00:07:40,740 --> 00:07:42,320
Everyone lost their shirts on it.

214
00:07:42,820 --> 00:07:46,200
And then the PDVSA oil company becomes bloated,

215
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,160
mismanaged, rife with corruption.

216
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,220
Production has now fallen to less than 25%.

217
00:07:51,220 --> 00:07:53,420
2013, Chavez dies.

218
00:07:53,420 --> 00:07:57,400
In comes Maduro, a literal bus driver who

219
00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,180
had worked his way through the system.

220
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,700
He was Chavez's handpick.

221
00:08:03,900 --> 00:08:05,780
Yeah, but the guy was a bus driver.

222
00:08:06,540 --> 00:08:11,000
So these social programs, they're not doing so

223
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:12,380
well with this lower revenue.

224
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:14,440
So they start printing money.

225
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,140
Ultimately, this number over time was mind-blowing

226
00:08:18,140 --> 00:08:21,740
to me, 1.3 million percent inflation of

227
00:08:21,740 --> 00:08:22,540
the Bolivar.

228
00:08:23,340 --> 00:08:25,420
So Maduro, of course, would be like, well,

229
00:08:25,460 --> 00:08:26,340
I've got to diversify.

230
00:08:26,460 --> 00:08:27,880
Let's get some drug money in there.

231
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:33,679
Now, in 2002, it's bad news for Maduro

232
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,760
because oil just went down in the tank

233
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:36,480
when he came in.

234
00:08:36,539 --> 00:08:38,559
It was like a perfect storm.

235
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,659
2002, ExxonMobil scores big in Guyana right next

236
00:08:42,659 --> 00:08:42,960
door.

237
00:08:43,620 --> 00:08:45,040
No one's mentioning this, really.

238
00:08:46,620 --> 00:08:50,620
2023, Maduro says Esquibo region, that's actually ours,

239
00:08:50,740 --> 00:08:52,360
and moves troops to the border.

240
00:08:53,020 --> 00:08:55,520
And in 2025, just as Trump gets in,

241
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,140
he's ratcheting up the heat.

242
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:58,360
He's like, we're taking over.

243
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:00,400
This is Venezuelan territory.

244
00:09:01,560 --> 00:09:03,440
And, you know, and so we didn't really

245
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,720
cover much of this, but it was happening.

246
00:09:07,140 --> 00:09:08,800
And so, of course, you know, Trump's like,

247
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,500
no, you're not going to, you already stole

248
00:09:10,500 --> 00:09:11,500
the first batch.

249
00:09:11,860 --> 00:09:13,160
You're not going to steal anymore.

250
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,680
And that's really what it is because we

251
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:16,240
need it.

252
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:18,960
Isn't diesel made from this stuff?

253
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:20,100
Is this the kind of stuff you make

254
00:09:20,100 --> 00:09:20,800
diesel out of?

255
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:22,540
No, you can make diesel from anything.

256
00:09:22,740 --> 00:09:24,140
But is it cheaper to make it from

257
00:09:24,140 --> 00:09:24,400
this?

258
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:25,520
Not really.

259
00:09:25,780 --> 00:09:27,940
It's a tough product.

260
00:09:28,220 --> 00:09:32,260
You need special refining to work this stuff.

261
00:09:32,620 --> 00:09:34,080
For one thing, you need cracking.

262
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:35,400
Cracking?

263
00:09:36,140 --> 00:09:37,340
Yeah, you need to crack it.

264
00:09:38,020 --> 00:09:40,360
Because normally with regular crude, you can just

265
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:41,000
run it through it.

266
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,520
Especially if it's super light, you can run

267
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,560
it through, you distill it and you get

268
00:09:45,560 --> 00:09:46,540
all the different cuts.

269
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,820
And the cuts are gasoline and diesel and

270
00:09:48,820 --> 00:09:49,860
kerosene and all the rest.

271
00:09:49,860 --> 00:09:50,780
But it's quite a process.

272
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,680
To get the heavy duty stuff busted up

273
00:09:54,680 --> 00:09:56,800
so you can distill it, you don't distill

274
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:57,300
it heavy.

275
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,220
You run it through a cracker, which is

276
00:10:00,220 --> 00:10:04,260
a big, giant, it's catalytic, it's usually catalytic

277
00:10:04,260 --> 00:10:04,800
cracking.

278
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,280
And you run the stuff through platinum and

279
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:08,240
a bunch of other things in it.

280
00:10:08,500 --> 00:10:10,240
And it busts it up into a liquid

281
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:11,760
that's a little more refinable.

282
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:13,880
And that's the expensive part.

283
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,580
Not that anyone cares, but that's pretty much

284
00:10:18,580 --> 00:10:18,680
it.

285
00:10:18,680 --> 00:10:22,400
Meanwhile, what's been happening is China and Russia,

286
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:23,860
they're all getting oil from there.

287
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,800
It was hilarious to see the Chinese delegation

288
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:31,020
just hours before they capture Maduro.

289
00:10:31,020 --> 00:10:33,180
And the Chinese are like, all right, we're

290
00:10:33,180 --> 00:10:33,600
out of here.

291
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:35,680
We got nothing to do with this.

292
00:10:36,180 --> 00:10:37,900
You know, people have pointed out that this

293
00:10:37,900 --> 00:10:40,240
was like the Chinese always, they do this

294
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:40,680
constantly.

295
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:41,860
They don't want to get involved.

296
00:10:42,060 --> 00:10:42,280
No.

297
00:10:43,020 --> 00:10:46,620
And they gave a number of examples of

298
00:10:46,620 --> 00:10:46,760
this.

299
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:48,380
But the one they keep forgetting, which we

300
00:10:48,380 --> 00:10:50,160
bring up on the show, is the one

301
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:50,920
in Libya.

302
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:51,960
Yes.

303
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:53,600
Where they had this whole area.

304
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,840
They were building up these big buildings and

305
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:56,260
everything.

306
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,000
And they just took off.

307
00:10:58,780 --> 00:10:59,940
You're still there.

308
00:11:00,660 --> 00:11:02,100
We don't want to.

309
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,420
And they're very non-confrontational, the Chinese.

310
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,540
So I will say January 3rd.

311
00:11:08,580 --> 00:11:10,840
This actually comes from our, I have a

312
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:15,160
new contact, former five, former six, not sure

313
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:15,520
yet.

314
00:11:16,260 --> 00:11:17,220
She's a producer.

315
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:17,960
She listens.

316
00:11:18,180 --> 00:11:20,580
I think she's, I know she's a spook,

317
00:11:20,660 --> 00:11:23,120
but I'm not sure she's MI5 or MI6.

318
00:11:23,220 --> 00:11:24,520
I believe she's retired.

319
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:28,340
She said, coincidentally, January 3rd is significant.

320
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,600
36 years ago, Noriega surrendered to U.S.

321
00:11:31,700 --> 00:11:34,240
forces after hiding in the Vatican Embassy, flown

322
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:35,660
to Miami on drugs charges.

323
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,160
Same date, January 3rd.

324
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:39,820
Trump likes significant dates.

325
00:11:40,340 --> 00:11:42,900
So I thought that was an interesting observation.

326
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,360
Also, just earlier, let me see, when did

327
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:48,860
this happen?

328
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:50,520
I think it happened December 1st.

329
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,440
A U.S. judge authorized the sale of

330
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,900
shares in Venezuela-owned parent company of Sitco

331
00:11:57,900 --> 00:12:04,180
Petroleum to Elliott Investment Management for $5.9

332
00:12:04,180 --> 00:12:04,800
billion.

333
00:12:05,300 --> 00:12:07,700
This is, what's the guy's name?

334
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:08,760
He's a big Trump donor.

335
00:12:09,300 --> 00:12:11,920
Who's the, I forget his name now.

336
00:12:13,020 --> 00:12:15,300
When did this deal go through?

337
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:16,550
This happened December 1st.

338
00:12:18,110 --> 00:12:19,710
Elliott Investment, man, hold on, let me just

339
00:12:19,710 --> 00:12:20,010
check.

340
00:12:20,130 --> 00:12:21,590
I had it written down here somewhere.

341
00:12:22,350 --> 00:12:23,610
It's, when I say the name, you go,

342
00:12:23,710 --> 00:12:25,070
oh yeah, yeah, that guy.

343
00:12:27,910 --> 00:12:29,430
Who we are, here we go.

344
00:12:29,530 --> 00:12:30,590
What's this guy's name?

345
00:12:30,730 --> 00:12:31,910
Paul Singer, there you go.

346
00:12:32,630 --> 00:12:33,590
Oh yeah, Paul Singer.

347
00:12:33,590 --> 00:12:35,150
Paul Singer, big Trump donor.

348
00:12:35,410 --> 00:12:36,150
But he knew something.

349
00:12:36,410 --> 00:12:37,690
He clearly knew something.

350
00:12:37,810 --> 00:12:40,090
Well, I mean, it was a court case,

351
00:12:40,210 --> 00:12:41,670
so maybe they waited for it.

352
00:12:41,750 --> 00:12:42,390
I don't know.

353
00:12:42,390 --> 00:12:44,690
They said that they had this ready for

354
00:12:44,690 --> 00:12:46,750
five or six weeks, but maybe they waited

355
00:12:46,750 --> 00:12:48,750
for that to be cleared up just in

356
00:12:48,750 --> 00:12:49,130
case.

357
00:12:50,010 --> 00:12:52,390
But I think the next, and we'll get

358
00:12:52,390 --> 00:12:53,110
into your clips now.

359
00:12:53,190 --> 00:12:54,790
I think, and whenever you want me to

360
00:12:54,790 --> 00:12:56,710
play some stuff from the morning show.

361
00:12:56,890 --> 00:12:57,670
Well, I'm going to have you play something

362
00:12:57,670 --> 00:12:59,550
right now since you just mentioned Paul Singer.

363
00:13:00,270 --> 00:13:01,830
But I don't want you to finish, I

364
00:13:01,830 --> 00:13:03,010
don't want you to finish yet.

365
00:13:03,490 --> 00:13:04,850
In other words, you've got more to say.

366
00:13:05,290 --> 00:13:08,610
But because you played Paul Singer, play this

367
00:13:08,610 --> 00:13:09,690
Paulie Market clip.

368
00:13:10,470 --> 00:13:11,150
Paulie Market.

369
00:13:11,150 --> 00:13:13,890
Looks like we have another Nancy Pelosi on

370
00:13:13,890 --> 00:13:16,670
our hands because last night before U.S.

371
00:13:16,870 --> 00:13:21,610
forces captured Venezuela's President Maduro, someone placed a

372
00:13:21,610 --> 00:13:23,510
bet on Paulie Market that that was going

373
00:13:23,510 --> 00:13:26,030
to happen, and they won big.

374
00:13:26,170 --> 00:13:29,030
This Paulie Market account that was created less

375
00:13:29,030 --> 00:13:31,990
than a month ago in December yesterday bet

376
00:13:31,990 --> 00:13:35,710
$30,000 that Maduro was going to no

377
00:13:35,710 --> 00:13:37,650
longer be the president of Venezuela.

378
00:13:37,650 --> 00:13:40,610
And then overnight, the U.S. captures him,

379
00:13:40,910 --> 00:13:42,850
and this user comes up on a fat

380
00:13:42,850 --> 00:13:44,310
$400,000.

381
00:13:45,370 --> 00:13:46,470
What are the odds?

382
00:13:46,970 --> 00:13:48,970
Now, because of the Stock Act in 2012,

383
00:13:49,350 --> 00:13:52,130
elected officials do have to report their stock

384
00:13:52,130 --> 00:13:53,090
trading activities.

385
00:13:53,530 --> 00:13:56,810
But Paulie Market is a big fat loophole.

386
00:13:57,610 --> 00:13:59,630
Under the Stock Act, elected officials have to

387
00:13:59,630 --> 00:14:03,290
report stocks, bonds, ETFs, and even crypto assets.

388
00:14:03,290 --> 00:14:06,510
But because Paulie Market's a predictive betting app,

389
00:14:06,750 --> 00:14:09,110
well, it falls into a gray zone.

390
00:14:09,450 --> 00:14:12,230
2026 goes, I'd say keep your eye on

391
00:14:12,230 --> 00:14:16,210
Paulie Market for any insider trading versus the

392
00:14:16,210 --> 00:14:17,070
stock market.

393
00:14:17,310 --> 00:14:18,930
Who do you think made this bet?

394
00:14:19,130 --> 00:14:21,850
As always, let me know down below.

395
00:14:22,050 --> 00:14:23,670
Why are you yelling at me?

396
00:14:23,710 --> 00:14:25,830
Is that a news clip or is that

397
00:14:25,830 --> 00:14:26,950
a TikTok thing?

398
00:14:27,530 --> 00:14:29,290
It was on Twitter.

399
00:14:29,290 --> 00:14:33,650
This girl follows this stuff, and yeah, it

400
00:14:33,650 --> 00:14:34,530
was a prop bet.

401
00:14:35,710 --> 00:14:37,570
Well, I think we need to pay attention

402
00:14:37,570 --> 00:14:38,570
to Trump's dates.

403
00:14:39,130 --> 00:14:41,050
That goes back to our MI6 lady.

404
00:14:41,930 --> 00:14:44,130
January 3rd, Trump likes special dates.

405
00:14:44,870 --> 00:14:45,790
I like that.

406
00:14:45,890 --> 00:14:46,570
Maybe it was her.

407
00:14:46,990 --> 00:14:47,790
Maybe it was her.

408
00:14:47,890 --> 00:14:48,430
I don't know.

409
00:14:49,310 --> 00:14:51,550
Well, she brings it up for a reason.

410
00:14:51,710 --> 00:14:53,130
I mean, why is she telling me this?

411
00:14:54,650 --> 00:14:57,070
Well, she likes the show, and we're also

412
00:14:57,070 --> 00:14:59,330
fed the information for the purposes of bringing

413
00:14:59,330 --> 00:15:00,310
it up on the show.

414
00:15:00,530 --> 00:15:01,230
She loves the show.

415
00:15:01,350 --> 00:15:02,890
I think she's actually a dame, to be

416
00:15:02,890 --> 00:15:03,470
honest about it.

417
00:15:03,510 --> 00:15:04,930
I won't say who she is, but I'm

418
00:15:04,930 --> 00:15:05,890
pretty sure she's a dame.

419
00:15:06,590 --> 00:15:09,270
Well, it's not that we're not fed.

420
00:15:09,550 --> 00:15:10,650
We're not read in.

421
00:15:10,750 --> 00:15:14,490
We should mention to people that we do

422
00:15:14,490 --> 00:15:16,010
amateur work.

423
00:15:16,510 --> 00:15:17,670
We're not read in.

424
00:15:18,130 --> 00:15:19,250
We're not read in.

425
00:15:19,490 --> 00:15:20,530
No agenda show.

426
00:15:20,630 --> 00:15:21,650
We're amateurs.

427
00:15:23,010 --> 00:15:24,310
It's not a bad thing.

428
00:15:25,050 --> 00:15:26,550
We're not read in.

429
00:15:26,890 --> 00:15:27,550
No, we're not.

430
00:15:27,750 --> 00:15:29,030
But we can deconstruct.

431
00:15:29,250 --> 00:15:30,290
Oh, we are fed.

432
00:15:30,570 --> 00:15:30,670
Yes.

433
00:15:32,530 --> 00:15:35,010
But we know we're fed, so don't worry

434
00:15:35,010 --> 00:15:35,350
about it.

435
00:15:35,410 --> 00:15:37,190
Yeah, we're fed, fed slop.

436
00:15:37,610 --> 00:15:38,070
There you go.

437
00:15:38,590 --> 00:15:40,730
So the next 96 hours, of course, are

438
00:15:40,730 --> 00:15:41,390
going to be crucial.

439
00:15:41,670 --> 00:15:43,790
And then I have clips for later about

440
00:15:43,790 --> 00:15:45,730
what they're saying and who's running it, what's

441
00:15:45,730 --> 00:15:46,510
really going to happen.

442
00:15:46,510 --> 00:15:50,330
You know, I'm sure it appears that the

443
00:15:50,330 --> 00:15:51,670
Venezuelans are very happy.

444
00:15:51,950 --> 00:15:53,270
Ding dong, the witch is dead.

445
00:15:53,470 --> 00:15:54,410
But they're hungry.

446
00:15:55,530 --> 00:15:58,490
And here's the interesting thing that I stumbled

447
00:15:58,490 --> 00:15:58,930
upon.

448
00:16:00,930 --> 00:16:03,790
So the U.S. dollar basically is the

449
00:16:03,790 --> 00:16:04,790
currency in Venezuela.

450
00:16:05,070 --> 00:16:07,650
People are using it because the boulevard is,

451
00:16:07,670 --> 00:16:10,370
you know, Weimar Republic status at this point.

452
00:16:10,390 --> 00:16:11,130
Yeah, it's junk.

453
00:16:11,790 --> 00:16:14,270
But the U.S. government.

454
00:16:14,270 --> 00:16:16,130
Actually, it switches something called the real.

455
00:16:18,270 --> 00:16:20,450
Well, everything I found is that people are

456
00:16:20,450 --> 00:16:25,190
just using U.S. dollar bills, 10s, 20s,

457
00:16:25,530 --> 00:16:26,770
singles, fives.

458
00:16:26,890 --> 00:16:26,990
Yeah.

459
00:16:27,070 --> 00:16:28,990
Well, if you have the opportunity, that's what

460
00:16:28,990 --> 00:16:29,390
you do.

461
00:16:29,630 --> 00:16:35,550
But they actually, starting in COVID days, there

462
00:16:35,550 --> 00:16:39,330
was a pilot by U.S.D.C.

463
00:16:39,330 --> 00:16:42,490
That's a stable coin via the Treasury and

464
00:16:42,490 --> 00:16:45,830
the State Department for the Heroes of Health

465
00:16:45,830 --> 00:16:46,470
program.

466
00:16:47,350 --> 00:16:51,010
They bypassed Maduro's regime banking system to send

467
00:16:51,010 --> 00:16:52,050
millions of dollars.

468
00:16:52,190 --> 00:16:53,570
I think it was six or seven million

469
00:16:53,570 --> 00:16:56,850
dollars directly to the digital wallets of 60

470
00:16:56,850 --> 00:16:58,950
,000 doctors and nurses.

471
00:17:00,230 --> 00:17:01,590
Who were using the system.

472
00:17:02,350 --> 00:17:04,869
And I'm thinking this might be a great

473
00:17:04,869 --> 00:17:07,450
moment to launch the stable coin.

474
00:17:08,490 --> 00:17:09,650
It's already been launched.

475
00:17:09,829 --> 00:17:12,190
Well, but the stable coin gambit, I don't

476
00:17:12,190 --> 00:17:14,770
think it's really been launched that way with

477
00:17:14,770 --> 00:17:17,829
the Treasury, with the government's endorsement and selling

478
00:17:17,829 --> 00:17:21,970
new Treasury bonds, short-term bonds against it.

479
00:17:23,510 --> 00:17:25,490
And if anything, the rails are kind of

480
00:17:25,490 --> 00:17:25,890
in place.

481
00:17:25,970 --> 00:17:26,329
You're right.

482
00:17:28,110 --> 00:17:29,730
But it just may be an airdrop.

483
00:17:29,870 --> 00:17:33,110
Hey, Venezuela, we're going to airdrop you some

484
00:17:33,110 --> 00:17:33,530
tokens.

485
00:17:34,390 --> 00:17:34,770
I don't know.

486
00:17:34,770 --> 00:17:36,710
It feels like a like a perfect storm.

487
00:17:37,730 --> 00:17:40,290
So you've got analysis, all kinds of stuff

488
00:17:40,290 --> 00:17:42,430
from from the days leading up to today's

489
00:17:42,430 --> 00:17:44,250
show, which, let's be honest, was one.

490
00:17:44,510 --> 00:17:45,390
Mostly came from yesterday.

491
00:17:45,590 --> 00:17:46,930
One day.

492
00:17:47,630 --> 00:17:48,230
One day.

493
00:17:48,450 --> 00:17:49,590
So hit it.

494
00:17:49,730 --> 00:17:51,770
And then whenever you're ready, I'll jump in

495
00:17:51,770 --> 00:17:53,490
with some of the the morning shows.

496
00:17:53,630 --> 00:17:56,710
Yeah, I think you definitely have the morning

497
00:17:56,710 --> 00:17:57,750
stuff is going to be good.

498
00:17:57,870 --> 00:18:00,150
Let's start with the overview by going to

499
00:18:00,150 --> 00:18:01,730
Maduro Grab on PBS.

500
00:18:03,050 --> 00:18:06,130
There are moments in time when history possibly

501
00:18:06,130 --> 00:18:06,670
pivots.

502
00:18:06,870 --> 00:18:09,030
And today, in a stunning act of regime

503
00:18:09,030 --> 00:18:11,910
change, the U.S. military captured and brought

504
00:18:11,910 --> 00:18:14,770
Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro to U.S. soil.

505
00:18:15,050 --> 00:18:17,830
Not long after that, in a remarkable declaration,

506
00:18:18,310 --> 00:18:20,330
President Trump announced the U.S. would, quote,

507
00:18:20,450 --> 00:18:23,050
run Venezuela and warned of a new era

508
00:18:23,050 --> 00:18:25,530
of United States domination over Latin America.

509
00:18:26,110 --> 00:18:27,910
We will get an on the ground report

510
00:18:27,910 --> 00:18:30,010
from Venezuela's capital, Caracas, in a moment.

511
00:18:30,010 --> 00:18:32,370
But we begin our coverage with Nick Schifrin.

512
00:18:32,790 --> 00:18:35,030
It was just after midnight over Caracas when

513
00:18:35,030 --> 00:18:37,870
U.S. helicopters with Delta Force soldiers descended

514
00:18:37,870 --> 00:18:39,670
toward Nicolás Maduro's compound.

515
00:18:42,450 --> 00:18:45,770
Nearby residents filmed and cowered from U.S.

516
00:18:45,870 --> 00:18:51,090
strikes on at least four locations, all part

517
00:18:51,090 --> 00:18:53,390
of the mission to capture and extract Maduro.

518
00:18:53,650 --> 00:18:55,310
By 2 a.m. local, they had him.

519
00:18:55,930 --> 00:18:56,790
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

520
00:18:57,190 --> 00:18:57,930
Did you hear that?

521
00:18:59,310 --> 00:19:02,390
So first they used the bogus regime change,

522
00:19:02,470 --> 00:19:03,010
but then.

523
00:19:04,650 --> 00:19:06,790
All part of the mission to capture and

524
00:19:06,790 --> 00:19:07,730
extract Maduro.

525
00:19:08,150 --> 00:19:08,670
Extract.

526
00:19:09,070 --> 00:19:10,050
They used the E word.

527
00:19:10,250 --> 00:19:11,030
They used the E word.

528
00:19:11,350 --> 00:19:14,110
The mission to capture and extract Maduro.

529
00:19:14,430 --> 00:19:16,050
By 2 a.m. local, they had him.

530
00:19:16,190 --> 00:19:17,850
And by 3 a.m., he was shackled

531
00:19:17,850 --> 00:19:21,150
aboard the USS Iwo Jima, the dictator-turned

532
00:19:21,150 --> 00:19:23,750
-detainee of the U.S. Department of Justice.

533
00:19:26,550 --> 00:19:29,630
U.S. military officials said U.S. helicopters

534
00:19:29,630 --> 00:19:32,450
took fire as they left Venezuela, but remained

535
00:19:32,450 --> 00:19:33,370
able to fly.

536
00:19:34,190 --> 00:19:36,990
A source familiar tells PBS NewsHour a small

537
00:19:36,990 --> 00:19:40,450
CIA team arrived in August and created extraordinary

538
00:19:40,450 --> 00:19:43,350
insight into Maduro's pattern of life that made

539
00:19:43,350 --> 00:19:44,770
grabbing him seamless.

540
00:19:45,070 --> 00:19:46,970
So first of all, kudos for the Nat

541
00:19:46,970 --> 00:19:47,890
Pops on PBS.

542
00:19:48,270 --> 00:19:48,770
Well done.

543
00:19:48,850 --> 00:19:52,250
And this was a Nat Pop extravaganza.

544
00:19:52,250 --> 00:19:53,270
It was just perfect.

545
00:19:53,770 --> 00:19:55,590
Even the president was saying, I watched it

546
00:19:55,590 --> 00:19:56,130
on TV.

547
00:19:56,290 --> 00:19:57,630
It was like a TV show.

548
00:19:57,690 --> 00:19:58,250
It was great.

549
00:19:58,790 --> 00:19:59,410
It was awesome.

550
00:19:59,930 --> 00:20:01,370
I think you'll never see it, but I

551
00:20:01,370 --> 00:20:01,690
saw it.

552
00:20:01,710 --> 00:20:02,190
It was good.

553
00:20:03,650 --> 00:20:05,210
And what was at the very end of

554
00:20:05,210 --> 00:20:05,710
that clip?

555
00:20:06,950 --> 00:20:08,310
What did he say right here?

556
00:20:08,590 --> 00:20:10,330
A small CIA team.

557
00:20:10,390 --> 00:20:10,690
Oh, yeah.

558
00:20:10,990 --> 00:20:13,510
The CIA guys, from what I understand, they

559
00:20:13,510 --> 00:20:16,710
had infiltrated Maduro's inner circle.

560
00:20:17,530 --> 00:20:18,810
Yeah, that's the only way they could figure

561
00:20:18,810 --> 00:20:19,570
out where he was.

562
00:20:21,610 --> 00:20:24,830
So, interesting that the CIA might be cooperating

563
00:20:24,830 --> 00:20:25,850
now, these days?

564
00:20:26,750 --> 00:20:28,670
I think the whole thing is a CIA

565
00:20:28,670 --> 00:20:29,210
deal.

566
00:20:29,450 --> 00:20:31,290
Oh, most of it has to be.

567
00:20:31,750 --> 00:20:34,050
And I think, I suggested in the last

568
00:20:34,050 --> 00:20:36,210
show that there was a cooperation going on.

569
00:20:36,370 --> 00:20:38,590
Well, they've been living in the region for

570
00:20:38,590 --> 00:20:39,450
50 years.

571
00:20:40,030 --> 00:20:41,310
They never left.

572
00:20:42,050 --> 00:20:45,050
No, but the CIA has always been, some

573
00:20:45,050 --> 00:20:46,790
of their superior work has been in South

574
00:20:46,790 --> 00:20:47,310
America.

575
00:20:47,310 --> 00:20:50,910
In quote, air quote, superior work.

576
00:20:51,590 --> 00:20:54,470
Well, it depends on what you mean by

577
00:20:54,470 --> 00:20:54,570
superior.

578
00:20:54,570 --> 00:20:55,810
Depends on where you are, yes, exactly.

579
00:20:55,830 --> 00:21:00,270
But the Guatemala stories, where they pretended there

580
00:21:00,270 --> 00:21:02,230
was a, you know, they somehow got the

581
00:21:02,230 --> 00:21:05,890
hold of the media and convinced everybody that

582
00:21:05,890 --> 00:21:08,490
the soldiers, the forces were coming and nobody

583
00:21:08,490 --> 00:21:10,510
was showing up, but they abandoned.

584
00:21:11,530 --> 00:21:12,350
Good job.

585
00:21:12,430 --> 00:21:13,470
Good job, spooks.

586
00:21:13,470 --> 00:21:19,570
In this case, they, yeah, they, I think,

587
00:21:19,590 --> 00:21:20,750
and I think they're at work.

588
00:21:21,510 --> 00:21:22,970
And it comes out in some of these

589
00:21:22,970 --> 00:21:25,930
clips that they're at work doing some other

590
00:21:25,930 --> 00:21:26,210
stuff.

591
00:21:26,270 --> 00:21:28,730
And I'm now thinking they're at work.

592
00:21:29,570 --> 00:21:32,810
I'll bring it up later in talking because

593
00:21:32,810 --> 00:21:35,210
I got a nasty note from somebody, a

594
00:21:35,210 --> 00:21:35,570
Canadian.

595
00:21:37,390 --> 00:21:38,310
Well, hello.

596
00:21:39,090 --> 00:21:40,510
Well, yeah, I did complain.

597
00:21:40,950 --> 00:21:41,050
Canadian.

598
00:21:41,150 --> 00:21:43,050
About our Alberta.

599
00:21:44,670 --> 00:21:45,630
Oh, interesting.

600
00:21:46,770 --> 00:21:48,510
So I think the CIA may be in

601
00:21:48,510 --> 00:21:48,970
Alberta.

602
00:21:49,210 --> 00:21:50,470
And they're probably in Greenland.

603
00:21:51,750 --> 00:21:54,050
Well, there's not much to do in Greenland.

604
00:21:54,430 --> 00:21:56,810
Hang out, fish, tell people to let the

605
00:21:56,810 --> 00:21:57,810
Americans buy them.

606
00:21:59,210 --> 00:22:00,090
It's just a thought.

607
00:22:00,670 --> 00:22:02,110
I'm sure there's nobody.

608
00:22:02,450 --> 00:22:02,910
Maybe.

609
00:22:03,110 --> 00:22:03,830
There's one or two.

610
00:22:04,430 --> 00:22:05,830
Okay, I'm with part two.

611
00:22:05,830 --> 00:22:09,270
This was one of the most stunning, effective

612
00:22:09,270 --> 00:22:13,290
and powerful displays of American military might and

613
00:22:13,290 --> 00:22:13,910
competence.

614
00:22:14,290 --> 00:22:16,230
In Palm Beach today, after he and his

615
00:22:16,230 --> 00:22:19,550
team watched the operation unfold overnight, President Trump

616
00:22:19,550 --> 00:22:22,310
announced the operation was not only about regime

617
00:22:22,310 --> 00:22:22,870
change.

618
00:22:23,110 --> 00:22:25,590
We are going to run the country until

619
00:22:25,590 --> 00:22:27,330
such time as we can do a safe,

620
00:22:27,830 --> 00:22:30,230
proper and judicious transition.

621
00:22:30,230 --> 00:22:32,890
President Trump said Secretary of State Marco Rubio

622
00:22:32,890 --> 00:22:35,270
had spoken to Venezuelan Vice President Del Cid

623
00:22:35,270 --> 00:22:37,910
Rodriguez, who was sworn in to replace Maduro.

624
00:22:38,410 --> 00:22:40,490
She had a long conversation with Marco and

625
00:22:40,490 --> 00:22:42,890
she said, we'll do whatever you need.

626
00:22:43,470 --> 00:22:46,230
I think she was quite gracious, but she

627
00:22:46,230 --> 00:22:47,350
really doesn't have a choice.

628
00:22:47,750 --> 00:22:51,010
But at least publicly today, Rodriguez rejected that.

629
00:22:52,870 --> 00:22:56,330
We demand the immediate release of President Nicolás

630
00:22:56,330 --> 00:22:59,630
Maduro and his wife, Celia Flores, the only

631
00:22:59,630 --> 00:23:02,270
president of Venezuela is President Nicolás Maduro.

632
00:23:02,790 --> 00:23:04,570
Now, time for the thumbscrews.

633
00:23:05,670 --> 00:23:07,550
She's not, that's not what she's cooperating.

634
00:23:08,250 --> 00:23:10,310
Well, you don't know that this wasn't a

635
00:23:10,310 --> 00:23:11,910
set up to, you know, so she can

636
00:23:11,910 --> 00:23:14,190
keep the people in line around her.

637
00:23:14,790 --> 00:23:15,270
Possibly.

638
00:23:15,650 --> 00:23:17,330
She can't, you know, because she's surrounded by

639
00:23:17,330 --> 00:23:20,450
a bunch of stooges that are, that would

640
00:23:20,450 --> 00:23:21,170
shoot her.

641
00:23:22,890 --> 00:23:25,370
Torturers and all kinds of bad actors that

642
00:23:25,370 --> 00:23:27,730
Maduro has accumulated as part of his drug

643
00:23:27,730 --> 00:23:28,370
cartel.

644
00:23:28,930 --> 00:23:31,130
And so she has to play bad girl,

645
00:23:31,310 --> 00:23:34,970
at least in front of that audience.

646
00:23:35,010 --> 00:23:37,410
So I take all this with a grain

647
00:23:37,410 --> 00:23:38,770
of salt one way or the other.

648
00:23:39,030 --> 00:23:39,810
I love the trolls.

649
00:23:40,090 --> 00:23:41,410
She's Sephardic as well.

650
00:23:41,650 --> 00:23:41,770
Okay.

651
00:23:41,930 --> 00:23:42,490
Yeah, I'm sorry.

652
00:23:42,570 --> 00:23:45,210
Forgot to mention that Netanyahu ordered this strike.

653
00:23:45,330 --> 00:23:45,530
Yes.

654
00:23:45,610 --> 00:23:48,350
Forgot to mention Israel's behind this.

655
00:23:48,590 --> 00:23:48,750
Sephardic.

656
00:23:49,630 --> 00:23:50,150
Yes.

657
00:23:50,150 --> 00:23:52,310
Yeah, straight up trolls.

658
00:23:52,510 --> 00:23:52,850
That's it.

659
00:23:52,950 --> 00:23:54,430
And that's exactly what's going on.

660
00:23:54,590 --> 00:23:56,970
If the best analysis you can do is

661
00:23:56,970 --> 00:24:00,090
everything's Jews, you might as well just, what's

662
00:24:00,090 --> 00:24:01,890
the point of even listening to our show?

663
00:24:02,110 --> 00:24:04,290
Well, just doing it to do it.

664
00:24:04,490 --> 00:24:04,950
What else?

665
00:24:05,170 --> 00:24:07,690
You know, when you're a hammer, everything looks

666
00:24:07,690 --> 00:24:08,590
like a nail.

667
00:24:09,570 --> 00:24:11,450
On to the final clip.

668
00:24:11,810 --> 00:24:13,530
And President Trump made clear part of the

669
00:24:13,530 --> 00:24:15,510
plan was to take Venezuela's oil.

670
00:24:15,510 --> 00:24:18,150
The country has the world's largest oil reserves,

671
00:24:18,510 --> 00:24:20,510
which the U.S. helped develop exactly one

672
00:24:20,510 --> 00:24:21,390
century ago.

673
00:24:21,870 --> 00:24:24,330
But former leader Hugo Chavez kicked out some

674
00:24:24,330 --> 00:24:26,350
U.S. and other foreign energy companies.

675
00:24:26,770 --> 00:24:29,150
And today the industry produces a fraction of

676
00:24:29,150 --> 00:24:29,850
its capacity.

677
00:24:30,330 --> 00:24:31,850
We're going to be replacing it.

678
00:24:31,950 --> 00:24:33,790
And we're going to take a lot of

679
00:24:33,790 --> 00:24:35,850
money out so that we can take care

680
00:24:35,850 --> 00:24:36,370
of the country.

681
00:24:37,330 --> 00:24:39,490
But the president made clear today was not

682
00:24:39,490 --> 00:24:40,710
only about Venezuela.

683
00:24:40,710 --> 00:24:43,850
This was about displaying an ability and willingness

684
00:24:43,850 --> 00:24:47,730
to enforce regional domination and embracing the early

685
00:24:47,730 --> 00:24:51,170
19th century declaration by President Monroe to block

686
00:24:51,170 --> 00:24:53,190
foreign colonialism in the Americas.

687
00:24:53,990 --> 00:24:55,610
They now call it the down road document.

688
00:24:55,890 --> 00:24:56,330
I don't know.

689
00:24:56,630 --> 00:25:00,710
Under our new national security strategy, American dominance

690
00:25:00,710 --> 00:25:03,910
in the Western Hemisphere will never be questioned

691
00:25:03,910 --> 00:25:04,350
again.

692
00:25:04,830 --> 00:25:07,290
Rubio made clear the next possible target.

693
00:25:07,290 --> 00:25:08,990
Yeah, look, if I lived in Havana and

694
00:25:08,990 --> 00:25:10,330
I was in the government, I'd be concerned.

695
00:25:10,730 --> 00:25:12,810
And to critics who question whether a president

696
00:25:12,810 --> 00:25:15,210
who was elected in part to avoid foreign

697
00:25:15,210 --> 00:25:16,030
entanglements.

698
00:25:16,250 --> 00:25:18,030
Why is running a country in South America

699
00:25:18,030 --> 00:25:19,190
America first?

700
00:25:19,650 --> 00:25:21,270
Well, I think it is because we want

701
00:25:21,270 --> 00:25:22,950
to surround ourself with good neighbors.

702
00:25:23,130 --> 00:25:25,510
We want to surround ourself with stability.

703
00:25:26,190 --> 00:25:28,470
We want to surround ourself with energy.

704
00:25:28,630 --> 00:25:30,530
We have tremendous energy in that country.

705
00:25:30,870 --> 00:25:33,750
Regime change, not for democracy, but for energy

706
00:25:33,750 --> 00:25:35,130
and for its own sake.

707
00:25:35,130 --> 00:25:38,250
As the question tonight in Caracas and perhaps

708
00:25:38,250 --> 00:25:39,090
around the world.

709
00:25:39,390 --> 00:25:40,090
Now what?

710
00:25:40,770 --> 00:25:43,130
Well, let's just address this for one second.

711
00:25:43,590 --> 00:25:47,030
The oil baron who is 60 percent gas,

712
00:25:47,150 --> 00:25:48,170
40 percent oil.

713
00:25:48,170 --> 00:25:49,930
He says this is not good for us.

714
00:25:50,430 --> 00:25:52,450
He says oil is going to drop even

715
00:25:52,450 --> 00:25:55,550
further, which surprise, surprise, is good for America

716
00:25:55,550 --> 00:25:58,650
because that lowers prices on everything.

717
00:25:58,650 --> 00:26:01,490
In theory, I mean, I don't think grocery

718
00:26:01,490 --> 00:26:04,450
prices actually ever go lower ever, but they

719
00:26:04,450 --> 00:26:04,790
could.

720
00:26:05,490 --> 00:26:07,430
They fluctuate enough so that it's noticeable.

721
00:26:08,390 --> 00:26:10,770
This might be a good time to just

722
00:26:10,770 --> 00:26:13,910
bring in one clip from Manhans Welker on

723
00:26:13,910 --> 00:26:16,510
Meet the Press with Marjorie Taylor Greene about

724
00:26:16,510 --> 00:26:17,950
the America first question.

725
00:26:20,090 --> 00:26:21,530
I think it's a perfect time.

726
00:26:21,790 --> 00:26:24,450
President Trump says he gets to decide what

727
00:26:24,450 --> 00:26:25,590
America first means.

728
00:26:25,990 --> 00:26:27,850
Does America first mean whatever?

729
00:26:27,850 --> 00:26:28,930
Wait, wait, wait, stop.

730
00:26:30,330 --> 00:26:31,890
When did he ever say that?

731
00:26:33,530 --> 00:26:35,050
Did Trump come out and say?

732
00:26:35,230 --> 00:26:36,230
I don't think he said that.

733
00:26:36,810 --> 00:26:38,830
Well, she just claimed that he did.

734
00:26:39,170 --> 00:26:41,790
Well, you meant to say she falsely claimed.

735
00:26:43,910 --> 00:26:45,310
She, you're right.

736
00:26:45,550 --> 00:26:46,930
You're exactly correct.

737
00:26:47,110 --> 00:26:49,710
I meant to say she falsely claimed.

738
00:26:49,970 --> 00:26:50,250
Yes.

739
00:26:50,250 --> 00:26:52,810
In fact, she played that very clip.

740
00:26:54,010 --> 00:26:56,850
And that's her extrapolation by saying, well, the

741
00:26:56,850 --> 00:26:59,230
President Trump says he gets this tells us

742
00:26:59,230 --> 00:27:01,170
he gets to say what America first means.

743
00:27:01,810 --> 00:27:04,130
But we know that that this is America

744
00:27:04,130 --> 00:27:06,430
and the Don Roe doctrine.

745
00:27:07,170 --> 00:27:08,930
They call it, you know, Don Roe doctrine

746
00:27:08,930 --> 00:27:09,450
is hilarious.

747
00:27:09,450 --> 00:27:11,130
And he made it up himself.

748
00:27:11,430 --> 00:27:12,910
I didn't hear anyone else say it until

749
00:27:12,910 --> 00:27:13,550
he said it.

750
00:27:13,810 --> 00:27:15,730
You know, they say it's the Don Roe

751
00:27:15,730 --> 00:27:16,050
doctrine.

752
00:27:16,150 --> 00:27:16,630
I don't know.

753
00:27:16,750 --> 00:27:17,310
I don't know.

754
00:27:17,430 --> 00:27:17,850
I agree.

755
00:27:17,850 --> 00:27:18,630
I agree.

756
00:27:18,850 --> 00:27:20,050
That's totally his creation.

757
00:27:20,210 --> 00:27:21,290
That's how he does it.

758
00:27:21,470 --> 00:27:22,710
He loves alliteration.

759
00:27:22,830 --> 00:27:23,490
He's my guy.

760
00:27:23,870 --> 00:27:24,130
All right.

761
00:27:24,190 --> 00:27:26,510
So he determines what America first is.

762
00:27:26,950 --> 00:27:27,630
Let's hear me.

763
00:27:27,790 --> 00:27:29,390
Marjorie Taylor Greene, who was there with their

764
00:27:29,390 --> 00:27:32,410
big doe eyes and all happy to be

765
00:27:32,410 --> 00:27:32,690
on.

766
00:27:32,850 --> 00:27:33,470
Meet the press.

767
00:27:33,790 --> 00:27:36,290
President Trump says he gets to decide what

768
00:27:36,290 --> 00:27:37,410
America first means.

769
00:27:37,850 --> 00:27:40,830
Does America first mean whatever President Trump says

770
00:27:40,830 --> 00:27:41,270
it does?

771
00:27:41,390 --> 00:27:42,810
What a loaded question.

772
00:27:43,410 --> 00:27:45,630
This is like this is disgusting.

773
00:27:45,890 --> 00:27:46,090
Yeah.

774
00:27:46,090 --> 00:27:48,750
Well, but it also shows you Marjorie Taylor

775
00:27:48,750 --> 00:27:50,370
Greene, who I think is a nice lady,

776
00:27:50,550 --> 00:27:52,770
but she is she's dumb.

777
00:27:52,950 --> 00:27:55,030
She doesn't even see beyond.

778
00:27:56,450 --> 00:27:59,110
You know, she doesn't see the implications of

779
00:27:59,110 --> 00:28:00,710
what this really can mean.

780
00:28:00,870 --> 00:28:02,310
She's not a dimensional thinker.

781
00:28:02,410 --> 00:28:02,750
Yes.

782
00:28:02,950 --> 00:28:03,210
Yes.

783
00:28:03,310 --> 00:28:05,750
You know, America first should mean what was

784
00:28:05,750 --> 00:28:06,890
promised on the campaign.

785
00:28:07,010 --> 00:28:08,690
Well, you won't be able to hear it

786
00:28:08,690 --> 00:28:09,670
if you're if you're doing.

787
00:28:09,950 --> 00:28:10,490
I'm sorry.

788
00:28:10,610 --> 00:28:12,370
I've only had to make that sound once.

789
00:28:12,370 --> 00:28:14,330
You can do it again if you want.

790
00:28:15,590 --> 00:28:18,790
So my understanding of America first is strictly

791
00:28:18,790 --> 00:28:21,350
for the American people, not for the big

792
00:28:21,350 --> 00:28:23,790
donors that donate to big politicians.

793
00:28:24,410 --> 00:28:24,550
Yeah.

794
00:28:24,730 --> 00:28:26,010
Well, yeah.

795
00:28:26,410 --> 00:28:29,170
Well, first of all, the oil company, she

796
00:28:29,170 --> 00:28:30,550
sees that as big donors.

797
00:28:30,850 --> 00:28:33,110
And I guess they don't employ Americans.

798
00:28:33,830 --> 00:28:35,890
I guess, you know, it's not not part

799
00:28:35,890 --> 00:28:37,210
of the American economy.

800
00:28:37,710 --> 00:28:39,250
She just doesn't see it that way.

801
00:28:39,250 --> 00:28:43,250
She wants grocery prices lower and rents lower,

802
00:28:43,390 --> 00:28:43,590
which.

803
00:28:44,010 --> 00:28:44,450
Yes.

804
00:28:44,550 --> 00:28:46,930
But you can't just wave your magic wand.

805
00:28:47,270 --> 00:28:49,850
Not for the special interests that constantly run

806
00:28:49,850 --> 00:28:50,350
the halls.

807
00:28:50,470 --> 00:28:52,810
Well, the silver guy, of course, and and

808
00:28:52,810 --> 00:28:55,150
the the poly market guy, you know, they

809
00:28:55,150 --> 00:28:58,810
won big Washington and not foreign countries that

810
00:28:58,810 --> 00:29:02,110
demand their priorities put first over Americans.

811
00:29:02,350 --> 00:29:05,390
America first actually means for the American people

812
00:29:05,390 --> 00:29:08,230
and the American people have been put last

813
00:29:08,230 --> 00:29:13,070
consistently decades and decades by both both political

814
00:29:13,070 --> 00:29:14,990
parties for far too long.

815
00:29:15,070 --> 00:29:18,190
My kids generation, my kids are 22, 26

816
00:29:18,190 --> 00:29:20,810
and 28, are looking at a future where

817
00:29:20,810 --> 00:29:23,870
this whole entire generation doesn't think they'll ever

818
00:29:23,870 --> 00:29:25,330
see a Social Security check.

819
00:29:25,610 --> 00:29:27,350
They don't believe they'll ever be able to

820
00:29:27,350 --> 00:29:29,510
afford to own their own home.

821
00:29:29,650 --> 00:29:33,410
And 50 year mortgages are really a slap

822
00:29:33,410 --> 00:29:34,070
in the face.

823
00:29:34,110 --> 00:29:34,830
It's insulting.

824
00:29:34,830 --> 00:29:38,330
Americans don't want two thousand dollar stimulus checks

825
00:29:38,330 --> 00:29:39,070
as a payoff.

826
00:29:39,390 --> 00:29:42,410
They want to have good policies brought forth

827
00:29:42,410 --> 00:29:44,330
for them because you want to know something,

828
00:29:44,470 --> 00:29:48,130
Kristen, they voted for this administration and their

829
00:29:48,130 --> 00:29:49,930
small dollar donation should matter.

830
00:29:50,350 --> 00:29:52,890
And MAGA has its own enemy list and

831
00:29:52,890 --> 00:29:55,350
the enemies of the worlds are not on

832
00:29:55,350 --> 00:29:57,010
their enemy list and they're tired of being

833
00:29:57,010 --> 00:29:57,390
ignored.

834
00:29:57,670 --> 00:29:57,970
You're right.

835
00:29:58,070 --> 00:30:00,490
She's not she's not a multidimensional thinker.

836
00:30:00,490 --> 00:30:03,650
And I have three daughters, 29, 30 and

837
00:30:03,650 --> 00:30:04,230
35.

838
00:30:05,130 --> 00:30:08,270
And yes, they see it as rather dim,

839
00:30:08,410 --> 00:30:10,890
but they're not they're not afraid of this.

840
00:30:10,990 --> 00:30:13,190
They're not even thinking of Social Security checks.

841
00:30:13,810 --> 00:30:14,890
And now here's the difference.

842
00:30:15,350 --> 00:30:17,670
The 29 and 30 year old, they can

843
00:30:17,670 --> 00:30:19,430
actually afford rent.

844
00:30:19,650 --> 00:30:22,670
Now, they they're not anywhere in house buying

845
00:30:22,670 --> 00:30:24,250
mood and that's unfortunate.

846
00:30:24,250 --> 00:30:26,770
But I think what we see and we'll

847
00:30:26,770 --> 00:30:29,010
see coming this year, the president's going to

848
00:30:29,010 --> 00:30:30,890
do something with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

849
00:30:30,970 --> 00:30:32,150
That rumor has been out there for a

850
00:30:32,150 --> 00:30:32,610
long time.

851
00:30:32,730 --> 00:30:33,730
That may change things.

852
00:30:34,550 --> 00:30:36,390
Rents may actually go down, which will also

853
00:30:36,390 --> 00:30:40,790
lower house prices as we've removed the incentives

854
00:30:40,790 --> 00:30:43,810
for illegal immigrants to be paid, bought and

855
00:30:43,810 --> 00:30:45,770
paid for by states and other.

856
00:30:45,870 --> 00:30:46,710
Yeah, that's yeah.

857
00:30:46,770 --> 00:30:49,530
Other criminal subsidies.

858
00:30:49,930 --> 00:30:53,370
But the one who's 35 in Rotterdam, she

859
00:30:53,370 --> 00:30:56,690
literally, you know, she cannot find a two

860
00:30:56,690 --> 00:30:59,950
bedroom apartment for the simple reason that the

861
00:30:59,950 --> 00:31:02,650
rule now is and she basically would be

862
00:31:02,650 --> 00:31:08,190
in social housing, which is, you know, up

863
00:31:08,190 --> 00:31:10,950
to like 2000 euros a month.

864
00:31:11,110 --> 00:31:14,670
But in order to to get that, she

865
00:31:14,670 --> 00:31:15,330
can pay it.

866
00:31:15,910 --> 00:31:17,670
But you have to show that you earn

867
00:31:17,670 --> 00:31:19,650
five times the monthly rent.

868
00:31:20,150 --> 00:31:23,110
Well, no, she doesn't make 100000 euros a

869
00:31:23,110 --> 00:31:23,410
year.

870
00:31:23,410 --> 00:31:26,790
And so that whole Europe is really not

871
00:31:26,790 --> 00:31:27,530
Europe first.

872
00:31:27,650 --> 00:31:29,230
America is still doable.

873
00:31:29,610 --> 00:31:31,130
This, by the way, is the biggest complaint

874
00:31:31,130 --> 00:31:33,930
I got from my little rant on the

875
00:31:33,930 --> 00:31:35,270
zoomers versus boomers.

876
00:31:35,490 --> 00:31:37,210
Yeah, but we can't buy a house.

877
00:31:37,530 --> 00:31:38,130
Well, no.

878
00:31:38,250 --> 00:31:39,290
You got jacked.

879
00:31:39,350 --> 00:31:39,770
Absolutely.

880
00:31:40,350 --> 00:31:42,510
My dad bought a house for twenty twenty

881
00:31:42,510 --> 00:31:44,070
thousand dollars in 1990.

882
00:31:44,970 --> 00:31:45,210
Yeah.

883
00:31:45,350 --> 00:31:47,810
But his has probably what was his monthly

884
00:31:47,810 --> 00:31:49,670
payment at 19 percent interest.

885
00:31:49,670 --> 00:31:52,430
So, yeah, it's not great, but I think

886
00:31:52,430 --> 00:31:54,670
that the president does have some plans to

887
00:31:54,670 --> 00:31:55,050
change.

888
00:31:55,210 --> 00:31:56,730
That chronology is off the pick.

889
00:31:57,090 --> 00:31:58,310
OK, what do you mean?

890
00:31:59,050 --> 00:32:01,610
Well, the high interest was in the late

891
00:32:01,610 --> 00:32:01,850
late.

892
00:32:02,430 --> 00:32:03,470
It really peaked.

893
00:32:03,590 --> 00:32:05,970
It ended around 1980, not 1990.

894
00:32:06,150 --> 00:32:08,250
By 1990, the interest rates are way down.

895
00:32:08,710 --> 00:32:09,410
Twelve percent.

896
00:32:10,110 --> 00:32:10,750
I had it.

897
00:32:10,810 --> 00:32:11,550
I don't think so.

898
00:32:11,570 --> 00:32:13,390
I had a 12 percent mortgage in 19.

899
00:32:13,430 --> 00:32:14,250
Well, you got shipped.

900
00:32:15,890 --> 00:32:18,410
There it is with a balloon payment.

901
00:32:19,450 --> 00:32:20,910
With a balloon payment.

902
00:32:21,470 --> 00:32:21,690
Yeah.

903
00:32:21,810 --> 00:32:23,850
So, yes, that's a problem.

904
00:32:24,690 --> 00:32:27,070
But, you know, it's Marjorie Taylor Greene makes

905
00:32:27,070 --> 00:32:28,430
it sound like, oh, it's the end of

906
00:32:28,430 --> 00:32:29,550
the world for everybody.

907
00:32:29,970 --> 00:32:31,970
You know, easy does it.

908
00:32:32,710 --> 00:32:33,750
It's not great.

909
00:32:34,070 --> 00:32:36,610
But, you know, hardships, every generation has its

910
00:32:36,610 --> 00:32:37,110
hardships.

911
00:32:37,590 --> 00:32:39,090
And I think I think the president has

912
00:32:39,090 --> 00:32:39,810
some plans for that.

913
00:32:40,070 --> 00:32:41,610
Anyway, maybe could I just play a couple

914
00:32:41,610 --> 00:32:43,250
of Rubio clips from this morning because it

915
00:32:43,250 --> 00:32:45,850
addresses these things and then we'll get back

916
00:32:45,850 --> 00:32:46,450
to your clips.

917
00:32:46,450 --> 00:32:47,690
Or do you want to play another series?

918
00:32:48,570 --> 00:32:49,910
I don't know.

919
00:32:50,030 --> 00:32:51,850
Why don't you play the Rubio clips first?

920
00:32:51,930 --> 00:32:53,610
And that gives me a better feeling of

921
00:32:53,610 --> 00:32:54,750
what clips I should go with.

922
00:32:55,050 --> 00:32:55,230
Okay.

923
00:32:55,410 --> 00:32:57,510
So, man, I have way too many.

924
00:32:58,070 --> 00:32:58,790
Me, too.

925
00:32:59,490 --> 00:33:02,750
I thought the Manhans Welker was better because

926
00:33:02,750 --> 00:33:04,570
she just she you know, she's a straight

927
00:33:04,570 --> 00:33:05,170
talker, man.

928
00:33:05,230 --> 00:33:05,870
She sits down.

929
00:33:05,950 --> 00:33:07,770
She asked the tough questions right away.

930
00:33:08,130 --> 00:33:09,190
Are we at war?

931
00:33:09,390 --> 00:33:11,370
Thank you so much for being here.

932
00:33:11,450 --> 00:33:13,350
I want to start with this big picture

933
00:33:13,350 --> 00:33:13,870
question.

934
00:33:13,870 --> 00:33:16,750
Is the United States now at war with

935
00:33:16,750 --> 00:33:17,250
Venezuela?

936
00:33:17,830 --> 00:33:18,510
There's not a war.

937
00:33:18,830 --> 00:33:20,310
I mean, we are a war against drug

938
00:33:20,310 --> 00:33:20,970
trafficking organizations.

939
00:33:21,650 --> 00:33:22,750
It's not a war against Venezuela.

940
00:33:23,470 --> 00:33:26,730
We are enforcing American laws with regards to

941
00:33:26,730 --> 00:33:27,810
oil sanctions.

942
00:33:27,970 --> 00:33:29,030
We have sanctioned entities.

943
00:33:29,210 --> 00:33:29,750
We go to court.

944
00:33:29,830 --> 00:33:30,390
We get a warrant.

945
00:33:30,550 --> 00:33:32,390
We seize those boats with oil and that

946
00:33:32,390 --> 00:33:33,030
will continue.

947
00:33:34,770 --> 00:33:37,170
And we will continue to reserve the right

948
00:33:37,170 --> 00:33:39,570
to take strikes against drug boats that are

949
00:33:39,570 --> 00:33:41,470
bringing drugs towards the United States that are

950
00:33:41,470 --> 00:33:45,610
being operated by transnational criminal organizations, including the

951
00:33:45,610 --> 00:33:46,850
cartel de los Souls.

952
00:33:47,370 --> 00:33:49,190
Of course, their leader, the leader of that

953
00:33:49,190 --> 00:33:51,050
cartel, is now in U.S. custody and

954
00:33:51,050 --> 00:33:54,350
facing U.S. justice in the Southern District

955
00:33:54,350 --> 00:33:54,990
of New York.

956
00:33:55,130 --> 00:33:56,210
And that's Nicolas Maduro.

957
00:33:56,550 --> 00:33:58,490
So we made a big progress in that

958
00:33:58,490 --> 00:33:58,810
regard.

959
00:33:58,810 --> 00:34:00,850
By the way, thank you, Alberto Guru, who

960
00:34:00,850 --> 00:34:02,470
says, can't afford a house but drives an

961
00:34:02,470 --> 00:34:05,330
$80,000 four-wheel truck, spends $500 a

962
00:34:05,330 --> 00:34:07,989
month on cell plants, Internet and streaming, DoorDash,

963
00:34:08,150 --> 00:34:09,409
partying, drugs, etc.

964
00:34:09,590 --> 00:34:10,330
Yeah, there's that.

965
00:34:11,010 --> 00:34:11,989
Yeah, there's that.

966
00:34:12,190 --> 00:34:12,690
There's that.

967
00:34:13,429 --> 00:34:15,070
So who's going to be running the country?

968
00:34:15,310 --> 00:34:16,010
Come on, Marco.

969
00:34:16,370 --> 00:34:18,929
Mr. Secretary, who is in charge?

970
00:34:19,050 --> 00:34:22,110
Are you running Venezuela right now?

971
00:34:22,510 --> 00:34:25,210
Yeah, I mean, I keep people fixating on

972
00:34:25,210 --> 00:34:25,389
that.

973
00:34:25,489 --> 00:34:27,409
Here's the bottom line on it is we

974
00:34:27,409 --> 00:34:28,530
expect to see changes.

975
00:34:28,530 --> 00:34:31,230
By the way, this question is never answered

976
00:34:31,230 --> 00:34:31,989
by anybody.

977
00:34:32,429 --> 00:34:34,489
And it's because the president said, we're running

978
00:34:34,489 --> 00:34:34,790
it.

979
00:34:35,429 --> 00:34:37,989
Yeah, Marco and Pete and everyone, they'll be

980
00:34:37,989 --> 00:34:38,770
taking care of things.

981
00:34:39,150 --> 00:34:41,750
That's why this question is a problem and

982
00:34:41,750 --> 00:34:43,570
goes unanswered in every interview.

983
00:34:43,989 --> 00:34:46,330
I don't understand why they let it go

984
00:34:46,330 --> 00:34:46,570
unanswered.

985
00:34:47,570 --> 00:34:49,050
Well, here's his answer.

986
00:34:49,550 --> 00:34:50,630
You know, fixating on that.

987
00:34:50,710 --> 00:34:52,650
Here's the bottom line on it is we

988
00:34:52,650 --> 00:34:54,570
expect to see changes in Venezuela.

989
00:34:54,889 --> 00:34:56,930
Changes of all kinds, long term, short term.

990
00:34:56,930 --> 00:34:58,270
We'd love to see all kinds of changes.

991
00:34:58,310 --> 00:34:59,870
But the most immediate changes are the ones

992
00:34:59,870 --> 00:35:01,150
that are in the national interest of the

993
00:35:01,150 --> 00:35:01,750
United States.

994
00:35:02,050 --> 00:35:03,870
That's why we're involved here, because of how

995
00:35:03,870 --> 00:35:06,130
it applies and has a direct impact on

996
00:35:06,130 --> 00:35:06,850
the United States.

997
00:35:07,150 --> 00:35:08,590
OK, we are not going to be able

998
00:35:08,590 --> 00:35:11,210
to allow in our hemisphere a country that

999
00:35:11,210 --> 00:35:13,830
becomes a crossroads for the activities of all

1000
00:35:13,830 --> 00:35:15,330
of our adversaries around the world.

1001
00:35:15,430 --> 00:35:16,530
We just can't allow it.

1002
00:35:16,570 --> 00:35:18,190
We can't have a country where the people

1003
00:35:18,190 --> 00:35:19,830
in charge of its military and in charge

1004
00:35:19,830 --> 00:35:22,450
of its police department are openly cooperating with

1005
00:35:22,450 --> 00:35:23,730
drug trafficking organizations.

1006
00:35:24,090 --> 00:35:24,430
We can't.

1007
00:35:24,470 --> 00:35:25,390
We're not going to allow that.

1008
00:35:25,390 --> 00:35:27,010
These are these things are direct threats to

1009
00:35:27,010 --> 00:35:27,750
the United States.

1010
00:35:27,870 --> 00:35:30,190
And we intend to use every element of

1011
00:35:30,190 --> 00:35:32,290
leverage that we have to ensure that that

1012
00:35:32,290 --> 00:35:32,730
changes.

1013
00:35:32,890 --> 00:35:34,810
The one I would point everyone to is

1014
00:35:34,810 --> 00:35:37,070
that our military is helping the Coast Guard

1015
00:35:37,070 --> 00:35:39,550
conduct a law enforcement function, which is not

1016
00:35:39,550 --> 00:35:41,630
just the capture of Maduro, but the enforcement

1017
00:35:41,630 --> 00:35:42,590
of our sanctions.

1018
00:35:42,870 --> 00:35:44,470
We go to court, we get a warrant,

1019
00:35:44,630 --> 00:35:45,470
we seize the boats.

1020
00:35:45,470 --> 00:35:48,170
And we think that's this tremendous leverage, incredible,

1021
00:35:48,490 --> 00:35:51,510
crippling leverage, which we intend to continue to

1022
00:35:51,510 --> 00:35:53,950
use until we see the changes that we

1023
00:35:53,950 --> 00:35:56,050
need to see that are a benefit to

1024
00:35:56,050 --> 00:35:56,770
the American people.

1025
00:35:56,810 --> 00:35:57,890
And by the way, we believe to the

1026
00:35:57,890 --> 00:35:59,250
people of Venezuela as well.

1027
00:35:59,530 --> 00:36:02,850
It doesn't really answer it at all.

1028
00:36:02,990 --> 00:36:05,330
Now, here's now.

1029
00:36:05,610 --> 00:36:07,270
Now, of course, this was a good question.

1030
00:36:07,310 --> 00:36:07,990
Good answer.

1031
00:36:08,030 --> 00:36:09,890
So why aren't you working with Machado?

1032
00:36:09,890 --> 00:36:12,990
President Trump said the administration is working with

1033
00:36:12,990 --> 00:36:15,570
Maduro's vice president, Delcy Rodriguez.

1034
00:36:16,510 --> 00:36:20,490
Why does the administration oppose working with the

1035
00:36:20,490 --> 00:36:22,390
opposition leader, Maria Corina Machado?

1036
00:36:23,010 --> 00:36:25,270
She's a Nobel Peace Prize winner, of course,

1037
00:36:25,350 --> 00:36:25,710
as well.

1038
00:36:25,990 --> 00:36:26,770
She should run the country.

1039
00:36:26,990 --> 00:36:29,750
Her coalition has the support of 70 percent.

1040
00:36:29,750 --> 00:36:30,150
She did win.

1041
00:36:30,390 --> 00:36:31,610
Yeah, no, she did win.

1042
00:36:31,870 --> 00:36:33,350
But, you know, I just like when you

1043
00:36:33,350 --> 00:36:34,970
say she's a Nobel Peace Prize winner.

1044
00:36:35,010 --> 00:36:37,310
Well, I am a podcast Hall of Fame

1045
00:36:37,310 --> 00:36:37,810
awardee.

1046
00:36:37,870 --> 00:36:38,910
I should be running the country.

1047
00:36:39,830 --> 00:36:41,230
Why not work with her?

1048
00:36:41,590 --> 00:36:42,650
Well, a couple of things.

1049
00:36:42,770 --> 00:36:44,730
First of all, Maria Corina Machado is fantastic.

1050
00:36:45,030 --> 00:36:46,330
And she's someone I've known for a very

1051
00:36:46,330 --> 00:36:46,930
long time.

1052
00:36:47,230 --> 00:36:49,710
And the whole movement is.

1053
00:36:49,830 --> 00:36:52,130
But we are dealing with the immediate reality.

1054
00:36:52,270 --> 00:36:54,810
The immediate reality is that unfortunately and sadly,

1055
00:36:54,930 --> 00:36:57,670
but unfortunately, the vast majority of the opposition

1056
00:36:57,670 --> 00:36:59,550
is no longer present inside of Venezuela.

1057
00:36:59,910 --> 00:37:01,590
We have short-term things that have to

1058
00:37:01,590 --> 00:37:02,670
be addressed right away.

1059
00:37:02,950 --> 00:37:04,810
We all wish to see a bright future

1060
00:37:04,810 --> 00:37:06,870
for Venezuela, a transition to democracy.

1061
00:37:07,030 --> 00:37:08,090
All of these things are great.

1062
00:37:08,090 --> 00:37:09,310
And we all want to see that.

1063
00:37:09,390 --> 00:37:11,050
I've worked on that for 15 years on

1064
00:37:11,050 --> 00:37:12,690
a personal level, both in the Senate and

1065
00:37:12,690 --> 00:37:15,390
now as national security advisor and secretary of

1066
00:37:15,390 --> 00:37:15,550
state.

1067
00:37:15,630 --> 00:37:16,730
These are things I still care about.

1068
00:37:16,770 --> 00:37:17,590
We still care about.

1069
00:37:17,910 --> 00:37:19,290
But what we're talking about is what happens

1070
00:37:19,290 --> 00:37:21,010
over the next two, three weeks, two, three

1071
00:37:21,010 --> 00:37:23,290
months and how that ties to the national

1072
00:37:23,290 --> 00:37:24,510
interest of the United States.

1073
00:37:24,910 --> 00:37:27,530
And so we expect to see more compliance

1074
00:37:27,530 --> 00:37:30,230
and cooperation than we were previously receiving.

1075
00:37:30,670 --> 00:37:32,510
With Nicolas Maduro, you could not make a

1076
00:37:32,510 --> 00:37:34,370
deal or an arrangement, although he, by the

1077
00:37:34,370 --> 00:37:36,050
way, was given very generous offers.

1078
00:37:36,050 --> 00:37:38,510
He could have left Venezuela as recently as,

1079
00:37:38,690 --> 00:37:39,870
you know, a week and a half ago.

1080
00:37:40,030 --> 00:37:42,610
There are opportunities available for him to avoid

1081
00:37:42,610 --> 00:37:44,430
all of this because he's not someone we

1082
00:37:44,430 --> 00:37:45,010
can work with.

1083
00:37:45,150 --> 00:37:47,730
He suckered the Biden administration into stupid deals.

1084
00:37:48,010 --> 00:37:50,410
He's made a career out of not keeping

1085
00:37:50,410 --> 00:37:52,650
deals and figuring out how to save himself

1086
00:37:52,650 --> 00:37:53,670
by buying time.

1087
00:37:54,070 --> 00:37:55,590
And we were not President Trump was not

1088
00:37:55,590 --> 00:37:56,770
going to fall into that trap.

1089
00:37:57,890 --> 00:38:00,230
This is interesting that I guess no one

1090
00:38:00,230 --> 00:38:03,430
really believed the national security strategy document because

1091
00:38:03,430 --> 00:38:04,850
it was clearly spelled out.

1092
00:38:04,850 --> 00:38:07,630
Well, I have a clip about one of

1093
00:38:07,630 --> 00:38:10,250
the analysis clips talks just about that specifically.

1094
00:38:10,510 --> 00:38:11,030
Let's do that.

1095
00:38:11,110 --> 00:38:11,890
Let's do your clips.

1096
00:38:12,010 --> 00:38:13,110
Yeah, let's let's.

1097
00:38:13,270 --> 00:38:14,490
This is the Maduro.

1098
00:38:14,590 --> 00:38:16,850
This is CNN Nationals at NSS.

1099
00:38:18,610 --> 00:38:20,850
Oh, wait, there's this one Maduro.

1100
00:38:20,990 --> 00:38:24,110
CNN brings in an SS is a two

1101
00:38:24,110 --> 00:38:24,610
parter.

1102
00:38:24,850 --> 00:38:26,950
Again, back to Jim Shooter, our chief national

1103
00:38:26,950 --> 00:38:27,910
security analyst.

1104
00:38:28,030 --> 00:38:29,930
What do you see in all of this

1105
00:38:29,930 --> 00:38:30,850
at this stunning moment?

1106
00:38:30,850 --> 00:38:33,670
Well, Sarah, remember when this administration released its

1107
00:38:33,670 --> 00:38:37,030
new national security strategy just a couple of

1108
00:38:37,030 --> 00:38:40,590
weeks ago and folks were reading it and

1109
00:38:40,590 --> 00:38:42,930
wondering, is this a serious document?

1110
00:38:43,190 --> 00:38:46,950
Does it indicate a major shift in U

1111
00:38:46,950 --> 00:38:49,670
.S. foreign policy or is it largely political?

1112
00:38:50,030 --> 00:38:51,830
Who had a hand in it, et cetera?

1113
00:38:51,830 --> 00:38:53,530
I was just reading through some of the

1114
00:38:53,530 --> 00:38:55,590
language for the first time.

1115
00:38:55,770 --> 00:38:59,170
And one of the clear headlines was, in

1116
00:38:59,170 --> 00:39:02,530
general terms, threats in our own hemisphere, the

1117
00:39:02,530 --> 00:39:03,290
Western Hemisphere.

1118
00:39:03,570 --> 00:39:03,830
Wow.

1119
00:39:03,950 --> 00:39:05,830
They're just now figuring out that's what it

1120
00:39:05,830 --> 00:39:06,070
said.

1121
00:39:06,190 --> 00:39:06,470
Oh, yeah.

1122
00:39:06,510 --> 00:39:07,990
You know, I went back and I did

1123
00:39:07,990 --> 00:39:08,710
some research.

1124
00:39:09,830 --> 00:39:14,270
Are more important than those elsewhere, whether that

1125
00:39:14,270 --> 00:39:14,770
be Europe.

1126
00:39:15,410 --> 00:39:17,090
Read that as Ukraine, the war in Ukraine

1127
00:39:17,090 --> 00:39:17,710
or Asia.

1128
00:39:18,210 --> 00:39:19,730
Perhaps read that as Taiwan.

1129
00:39:20,370 --> 00:39:24,630
That here that involve not just regimes or

1130
00:39:24,630 --> 00:39:28,550
governments that this administration views as their adversaries,

1131
00:39:28,910 --> 00:39:31,550
such as Nicolas Maduro, but also problems that

1132
00:39:31,550 --> 00:39:33,750
they view as top of top of their

1133
00:39:33,750 --> 00:39:34,130
list.

1134
00:39:34,230 --> 00:39:37,830
Drug trafficking, migration flows, et cetera.

1135
00:39:37,830 --> 00:39:41,230
And here we see that that document was

1136
00:39:41,230 --> 00:39:41,930
quite serious.

1137
00:39:42,170 --> 00:39:44,150
Right, Sarah, that that that shift is a

1138
00:39:44,150 --> 00:39:45,870
little laughter in there.

1139
00:39:46,610 --> 00:39:48,230
We see there was quite serious.

1140
00:39:48,730 --> 00:39:51,890
And here we see that that document was

1141
00:39:51,890 --> 00:39:52,550
quite serious.

1142
00:39:52,550 --> 00:39:52,870
Right.

1143
00:39:52,990 --> 00:39:55,510
That that that that that is playing out

1144
00:39:55,510 --> 00:39:56,710
before our eyes doesn't mean that the U

1145
00:39:56,710 --> 00:39:58,890
.S. withdraws from from Europe or Asia, but

1146
00:39:58,890 --> 00:40:01,550
it is certainly more aggressive in its own

1147
00:40:01,550 --> 00:40:01,990
backyard.

1148
00:40:02,350 --> 00:40:05,390
And then you begin to think beyond this

1149
00:40:05,390 --> 00:40:06,830
project underway.

1150
00:40:06,830 --> 00:40:08,870
The Venezuela project, the U.S. running the

1151
00:40:08,870 --> 00:40:09,190
country.

1152
00:40:09,330 --> 00:40:10,710
And we're about to see, as you say,

1153
00:40:10,750 --> 00:40:12,370
the leader of the country walk off that

1154
00:40:12,370 --> 00:40:14,390
plane, perhaps in handcuffs and a blindfold.

1155
00:40:14,690 --> 00:40:18,210
Or is what does it mean for the

1156
00:40:18,210 --> 00:40:22,470
Cuban regime, which is also an adversary of

1157
00:40:22,470 --> 00:40:23,530
the Trump administration?

1158
00:40:24,130 --> 00:40:27,570
Or even it's a little different because Greenland

1159
00:40:27,570 --> 00:40:28,590
is run by an ally.

1160
00:40:28,690 --> 00:40:30,410
But Greenland is a place that President Trump

1161
00:40:30,410 --> 00:40:31,890
has said that's in our backyard.

1162
00:40:31,890 --> 00:40:32,850
I want it.

1163
00:40:33,470 --> 00:40:33,690
Yeah.

1164
00:40:34,670 --> 00:40:35,030
Hello.

1165
00:40:35,150 --> 00:40:35,850
Get a clue.

1166
00:40:35,850 --> 00:40:36,870
I'll play.

1167
00:40:37,030 --> 00:40:40,250
Well, I'm I'm throwing Alberta, Canada into the.

1168
00:40:40,370 --> 00:40:41,190
I like that.

1169
00:40:41,290 --> 00:40:42,670
I don't have any clips about it, but

1170
00:40:42,670 --> 00:40:43,750
I like it.

1171
00:40:43,970 --> 00:40:46,870
Well, the thing about it is like we're

1172
00:40:46,870 --> 00:40:48,830
talking about our hemisphere, our backyard.

1173
00:40:49,030 --> 00:40:49,850
What is more?

1174
00:40:50,150 --> 00:40:52,430
And if we really look at this as

1175
00:40:52,430 --> 00:40:57,810
a subterfuge for grabbing oil, you got Alberta

1176
00:40:57,810 --> 00:40:59,510
over there sitting there with this.

1177
00:40:59,710 --> 00:41:00,850
It's the same thing.

1178
00:41:00,910 --> 00:41:03,390
They're not producing anything because the Canadian government

1179
00:41:03,390 --> 00:41:04,230
won't let them.

1180
00:41:04,230 --> 00:41:06,430
So let's go stir up some shit, get

1181
00:41:06,430 --> 00:41:07,530
them to go independent.

1182
00:41:07,630 --> 00:41:08,310
And we got it made.

1183
00:41:08,390 --> 00:41:09,930
We have the CIA go do that.

1184
00:41:10,290 --> 00:41:11,750
Now, of course, the guy who wrote the

1185
00:41:11,750 --> 00:41:14,930
nasty note to me and mentioned, well, you

1186
00:41:14,930 --> 00:41:17,510
know, Mark, Mark Carney, what is Canadian?

1187
00:41:17,650 --> 00:41:19,490
OK, let's get this straight.

1188
00:41:19,610 --> 00:41:21,110
Mark Carney was born in Canada.

1189
00:41:21,530 --> 00:41:21,850
Yes.

1190
00:41:22,430 --> 00:41:25,870
He was educated at Harvard and Oxford.

1191
00:41:26,050 --> 00:41:28,550
He is the central banker, central banker.

1192
00:41:28,990 --> 00:41:31,970
First, he was a central banker in Canada.

1193
00:41:32,130 --> 00:41:33,730
Then he went to the U.K. and

1194
00:41:33,730 --> 00:41:34,470
became a central banker.

1195
00:41:34,570 --> 00:41:36,810
Then he became a U.K. citizen, but

1196
00:41:36,810 --> 00:41:37,510
dual citizen.

1197
00:41:37,730 --> 00:41:41,170
Then he's also got some Irish connection with

1198
00:41:41,170 --> 00:41:46,070
some crazy Irish that are also kind of

1199
00:41:46,070 --> 00:41:47,010
nexus types.

1200
00:41:47,270 --> 00:41:49,310
And let's be honest, there's a lot of

1201
00:41:49,310 --> 00:41:50,870
Irish running a lot of things.

1202
00:41:51,710 --> 00:41:52,210
And he's got.

1203
00:41:52,310 --> 00:41:53,730
So he's a triple citizen.

1204
00:41:53,730 --> 00:41:56,530
And then when he became the prime minister

1205
00:41:56,530 --> 00:42:00,210
of Canada, he rebuked the other two citizenships

1206
00:42:00,210 --> 00:42:01,650
that he already says he did.

1207
00:42:01,690 --> 00:42:02,630
We don't know for sure.

1208
00:42:03,210 --> 00:42:05,810
And so, OK, he's Canadian, but he doesn't

1209
00:42:05,810 --> 00:42:07,530
like the United States or he's part of

1210
00:42:07,530 --> 00:42:08,910
some banking combine.

1211
00:42:09,130 --> 00:42:09,830
We don't know.

1212
00:42:10,190 --> 00:42:12,250
But the point is, this guy was telling

1213
00:42:12,250 --> 00:42:15,210
and he's just a very nasty note.

1214
00:42:15,870 --> 00:42:16,350
Wow.

1215
00:42:16,370 --> 00:42:17,850
You're really upset by this.

1216
00:42:18,030 --> 00:42:18,810
Welcome to the club.

1217
00:42:18,950 --> 00:42:19,350
Not upset at all.

1218
00:42:19,350 --> 00:42:22,730
But it brought to the fore this thing,

1219
00:42:23,330 --> 00:42:26,570
this Alberta thing, because it was like we're

1220
00:42:26,570 --> 00:42:28,690
full of crap about this Alberta thing.

1221
00:42:29,150 --> 00:42:31,110
And I was reminding me, if you can

1222
00:42:31,110 --> 00:42:33,670
remember this far back, this has to be

1223
00:42:33,670 --> 00:42:36,690
15 years ago when we first grabbed on

1224
00:42:36,690 --> 00:42:38,150
to Farage.

1225
00:42:38,870 --> 00:42:39,070
Yeah.

1226
00:42:40,250 --> 00:42:42,290
Somebody wrote in this for you guys are

1227
00:42:42,290 --> 00:42:43,990
often the deep end here.

1228
00:42:44,130 --> 00:42:45,510
Farage is no good.

1229
00:42:45,610 --> 00:42:46,550
He's just a clown.

1230
00:42:46,910 --> 00:42:48,470
He's never going to amount to anything.

1231
00:42:48,470 --> 00:42:49,810
You'll never hear from him again.

1232
00:42:49,890 --> 00:42:51,510
You guys are embarrassing yourselves.

1233
00:42:51,810 --> 00:42:52,930
Was it the same guy?

1234
00:42:55,270 --> 00:42:57,030
No, it could have been.

1235
00:42:57,130 --> 00:42:59,150
It probably was the same guy.

1236
00:42:59,530 --> 00:43:00,750
So this guy is saying so.

1237
00:43:01,250 --> 00:43:03,070
So he says this about Alberta.

1238
00:43:03,070 --> 00:43:05,350
And I'm thinking, wait a minute, because when

1239
00:43:05,350 --> 00:43:06,950
you start listening to these clips about what

1240
00:43:06,950 --> 00:43:09,710
the CIA is up to, they could easily

1241
00:43:09,710 --> 00:43:12,990
be in Alberta causing, you know, getting handing

1242
00:43:12,990 --> 00:43:14,230
out doughnuts.

1243
00:43:15,390 --> 00:43:18,150
You want a nonstop supply of these every

1244
00:43:18,150 --> 00:43:19,070
single day, Albertans.

1245
00:43:19,070 --> 00:43:20,390
You want more doughnuts.

1246
00:43:20,550 --> 00:43:22,990
But the thing is, from the clips I've

1247
00:43:22,990 --> 00:43:25,530
seen, the Albertans, they're like, yeah, we'd kind

1248
00:43:25,530 --> 00:43:26,830
of like to be part of America.

1249
00:43:27,890 --> 00:43:29,390
That's the way it seems to me.

1250
00:43:30,310 --> 00:43:31,870
I mean, that could be the long term

1251
00:43:31,870 --> 00:43:32,130
goal.

1252
00:43:32,270 --> 00:43:34,070
I personally think they should be an independent

1253
00:43:34,070 --> 00:43:34,590
country.

1254
00:43:34,670 --> 00:43:35,790
They could probably pull that off.

1255
00:43:35,790 --> 00:43:38,510
Like Puerto Rico, kind of a protectorate.

1256
00:43:38,510 --> 00:43:40,210
Puerto Rico is part of the United States.

1257
00:43:40,310 --> 00:43:41,130
Yeah, but it's not a state.

1258
00:43:41,350 --> 00:43:42,570
They could be a protectorate.

1259
00:43:42,570 --> 00:43:45,250
Oh, that's an interesting, I never even thought

1260
00:43:45,250 --> 00:43:45,710
of that.

1261
00:43:45,870 --> 00:43:46,610
You get a passport.

1262
00:43:47,270 --> 00:43:48,630
You get your doughnuts.

1263
00:43:49,150 --> 00:43:50,350
Get your flag.

1264
00:43:51,290 --> 00:43:52,370
Get your MAGA hat.

1265
00:43:53,790 --> 00:43:54,350
Good to go.

1266
00:43:54,630 --> 00:43:55,190
Welcome aboard.

1267
00:43:55,530 --> 00:43:56,450
Interesting idea.

1268
00:43:56,590 --> 00:43:58,690
That's actually, that might actually work.

1269
00:44:00,170 --> 00:44:02,230
A clip, too, on the NSS.

1270
00:44:02,530 --> 00:44:04,250
How far is the U.S. willing to

1271
00:44:04,250 --> 00:44:08,210
go now to change the leadership and control

1272
00:44:08,210 --> 00:44:11,250
of other places and countries in our hemisphere?

1273
00:44:11,250 --> 00:44:15,290
So that, you know, the next strategy wasn't

1274
00:44:15,290 --> 00:44:18,090
just an empty document, apparently, because of what

1275
00:44:18,090 --> 00:44:20,110
we're seeing on that tarmac in Newburgh, New

1276
00:44:20,110 --> 00:44:20,770
York right now.

1277
00:44:21,110 --> 00:44:23,510
Well, allow me now to play a clip

1278
00:44:23,510 --> 00:44:26,250
from Rubio where this question came up about

1279
00:44:26,250 --> 00:44:26,670
Cuba.

1280
00:44:27,070 --> 00:44:29,750
Is the Cuban government the Trump administration's next

1281
00:44:29,750 --> 00:44:30,850
target, Mr. Secretary?

1282
00:44:31,310 --> 00:44:33,470
Well, the Cuban government is a huge problem.

1283
00:44:33,690 --> 00:44:36,330
Yeah, the Cuban government is a huge problem.

1284
00:44:36,490 --> 00:44:37,290
So is that a yes?

1285
00:44:37,850 --> 00:44:38,390
But I don't think.

1286
00:44:38,490 --> 00:44:39,050
Oh, yeah.

1287
00:44:39,050 --> 00:44:43,110
Kristen, they always want yes or no questions.

1288
00:44:43,390 --> 00:44:44,030
Is that a yes?

1289
00:44:44,210 --> 00:44:45,210
Are we going to take over Cuba?

1290
00:44:45,550 --> 00:44:46,650
The Cuban government is a huge problem.

1291
00:44:46,830 --> 00:44:47,630
So is that a yes?

1292
00:44:47,990 --> 00:44:49,750
But I don't think people fully appreciate.

1293
00:44:50,050 --> 00:44:51,050
I think they're in a lot of trouble,

1294
00:44:51,190 --> 00:44:51,390
yes.

1295
00:44:51,430 --> 00:44:53,090
I'm not going to talk to you about

1296
00:44:53,090 --> 00:44:54,430
what our future steps are going to be

1297
00:44:54,430 --> 00:44:55,770
and our policies are going to be right

1298
00:44:55,770 --> 00:44:56,490
now in this regard.

1299
00:44:56,530 --> 00:44:57,810
But I don't think it's any mystery that

1300
00:44:57,810 --> 00:44:59,230
we are not big fans of the Cuban

1301
00:44:59,230 --> 00:45:01,430
regime, who, by the way, are the ones

1302
00:45:01,430 --> 00:45:02,410
that were propping up Maduro.

1303
00:45:02,410 --> 00:45:05,770
His entire like internal security force, his internal

1304
00:45:05,770 --> 00:45:09,230
security apparatus is entirely controlled by Cubans.

1305
00:45:09,290 --> 00:45:11,310
One of the untold stories here is how,

1306
00:45:11,410 --> 00:45:13,370
in essence, you talk about colonization because I

1307
00:45:13,370 --> 00:45:15,370
think you said Dulce Rodriguez mentioned that the

1308
00:45:15,370 --> 00:45:17,130
ones who are sort of colonized, at least

1309
00:45:17,130 --> 00:45:18,890
inside the regime, are Cubans.

1310
00:45:19,170 --> 00:45:20,670
It was Cubans that guarded Maduro.

1311
00:45:20,770 --> 00:45:22,670
He was not guarded by Venezuelan bodyguards.

1312
00:45:22,870 --> 00:45:25,010
He had Cuban bodyguards in terms of their

1313
00:45:25,010 --> 00:45:27,590
internal intelligence, who spies on who inside to

1314
00:45:27,590 --> 00:45:28,490
make sure there are no traitors.

1315
00:45:28,670 --> 00:45:29,670
Those are all Cubans.

1316
00:45:30,690 --> 00:45:31,590
That was interesting.

1317
00:45:33,690 --> 00:45:35,870
Yeah, the whole country is filled with a

1318
00:45:35,870 --> 00:45:39,650
bunch of aliens, Cubans and Hezbollah and all

1319
00:45:39,650 --> 00:45:40,470
these other groups.

1320
00:45:40,890 --> 00:45:44,010
But it's interesting that Cuba was basically the

1321
00:45:44,010 --> 00:45:45,910
intelligence apparatus for Maduro.

1322
00:45:45,990 --> 00:45:47,590
Well, they didn't do a very good job.

1323
00:45:47,730 --> 00:45:48,830
But who runs Cuba?

1324
00:45:49,510 --> 00:45:50,690
I always thought that was Russia.

1325
00:45:50,870 --> 00:45:52,930
Don't they still park their boats over there?

1326
00:45:53,230 --> 00:45:54,570
I think Russia's kind of backed away.

1327
00:45:54,570 --> 00:45:57,070
Well, you know, the story now that's out

1328
00:45:57,070 --> 00:45:58,610
there is Trump did a deal.

1329
00:45:59,710 --> 00:46:03,390
Putin gets Ukraine and we take Venezuela.

1330
00:46:03,750 --> 00:46:04,610
They got a deal.

1331
00:46:06,330 --> 00:46:09,930
Sounds a little simple minded, but yeah.

1332
00:46:09,930 --> 00:46:12,590
So let's go through this analysis.

1333
00:46:12,870 --> 00:46:16,690
We do an analysis on because Machado was

1334
00:46:16,690 --> 00:46:17,890
brought into the conversation.

1335
00:46:18,110 --> 00:46:18,330
Why?

1336
00:46:18,890 --> 00:46:23,110
Here's the Maduro CNN analysis on Machado, the

1337
00:46:23,110 --> 00:46:27,010
Nobel Peace Prize winner who actually should have

1338
00:46:27,010 --> 00:46:28,750
been president of Venezuela.

1339
00:46:29,390 --> 00:46:30,250
What are you learning?

1340
00:46:30,610 --> 00:46:36,050
I've been speaking to the Venezuelan opposition about

1341
00:46:36,050 --> 00:46:37,770
their reaction to this.

1342
00:46:37,930 --> 00:46:38,470
Who is this?

1343
00:46:38,470 --> 00:46:40,250
Who spoke with the opposition?

1344
00:46:40,450 --> 00:46:41,910
Who according to Rubio or not?

1345
00:46:42,170 --> 00:46:45,350
One of the spooks that comes in and

1346
00:46:45,350 --> 00:46:46,530
does analysis for CNN.

1347
00:46:46,590 --> 00:46:47,890
Rubio said they're gone.

1348
00:46:48,730 --> 00:46:49,830
They're all out of the country.

1349
00:46:51,190 --> 00:46:52,430
Yeah, most of them.

1350
00:46:52,710 --> 00:46:53,150
Well, OK.

1351
00:46:53,270 --> 00:46:54,030
So you talk to.

1352
00:46:54,070 --> 00:46:55,150
They're in the country, too.

1353
00:46:55,250 --> 00:46:57,550
But if you're you know, but they're not

1354
00:46:57,550 --> 00:46:58,790
in plain sight.

1355
00:46:58,790 --> 00:47:03,450
And I'm told that the opposition leader Machado

1356
00:47:03,450 --> 00:47:06,770
has been in touch with governments across the

1357
00:47:06,770 --> 00:47:08,510
world following this operation.

1358
00:47:08,830 --> 00:47:12,710
That includes the government of France, President Emmanuel

1359
00:47:12,710 --> 00:47:13,250
Macron.

1360
00:47:13,250 --> 00:47:16,310
But also and this is crucial governments in

1361
00:47:16,310 --> 00:47:20,670
Latin America, Argentina, Ecuador, Panama, Paraguay, who I'm

1362
00:47:20,670 --> 00:47:24,610
told have shared with the Venezuelan opposition their

1363
00:47:24,610 --> 00:47:27,810
shared desire in, quote, restoring the will of

1364
00:47:27,810 --> 00:47:28,370
the people.

1365
00:47:28,870 --> 00:47:32,310
I think this is important, Sarah, because here

1366
00:47:32,310 --> 00:47:35,110
is the opposition saying that they are getting

1367
00:47:35,110 --> 00:47:38,970
support from other countries for the opposition's role

1368
00:47:38,970 --> 00:47:42,290
in the future of Venezuela post Maduro.

1369
00:47:42,290 --> 00:47:45,410
And that's, of course, crucial, Sarah, because as

1370
00:47:45,410 --> 00:47:47,950
you and I were speaking earlier, President Trump

1371
00:47:47,950 --> 00:47:51,310
in his comments from Florida earlier today seemed

1372
00:47:51,310 --> 00:47:52,570
to leave that question open.

1373
00:47:52,750 --> 00:47:53,010
Right.

1374
00:47:53,070 --> 00:47:54,170
He said the U.S. will be running

1375
00:47:54,170 --> 00:47:54,690
the country.

1376
00:47:55,490 --> 00:47:58,330
He raised some questions about the degree of

1377
00:47:58,330 --> 00:48:02,450
support that Machado has in in the country

1378
00:48:02,450 --> 00:48:04,590
of Venezuela, which is crucial, given that it

1379
00:48:04,590 --> 00:48:06,850
is the wide view of observers of the

1380
00:48:06,850 --> 00:48:08,830
most recent election that Machado actually won and

1381
00:48:08,830 --> 00:48:09,370
not Maduro.

1382
00:48:09,370 --> 00:48:12,050
That would give presumably and certainly in the

1383
00:48:12,050 --> 00:48:13,730
eyes of many countries in the region around

1384
00:48:13,730 --> 00:48:17,810
the world legitimacy to her claims to leadership

1385
00:48:17,810 --> 00:48:19,750
in any sort of post Maduro government.

1386
00:48:20,270 --> 00:48:22,750
But the opposition saying here that they are

1387
00:48:22,750 --> 00:48:25,130
in touch with governments around the world and

1388
00:48:25,130 --> 00:48:28,250
getting that kind of support.

1389
00:48:28,530 --> 00:48:28,670
Right.

1390
00:48:28,730 --> 00:48:30,810
As I said, therefore, restoring the will of

1391
00:48:30,810 --> 00:48:32,990
the people in the country of Venezuela.

1392
00:48:32,990 --> 00:48:35,490
But at this point remains very much an

1393
00:48:35,490 --> 00:48:37,230
open question as to what the process will

1394
00:48:37,230 --> 00:48:40,690
be to decide who leads the country next

1395
00:48:40,690 --> 00:48:42,490
and where the U.S. will be in

1396
00:48:42,490 --> 00:48:43,030
that process.

1397
00:48:43,150 --> 00:48:44,010
Who will it support?

1398
00:48:44,310 --> 00:48:44,670
Right.

1399
00:48:44,750 --> 00:48:46,270
And does that include the opposition?

1400
00:48:46,730 --> 00:48:48,230
He's saying a lot of right because he

1401
00:48:48,230 --> 00:48:49,310
doesn't know what he's talking about.

1402
00:48:49,310 --> 00:48:50,630
No, he's just rambling.

1403
00:48:50,970 --> 00:48:52,970
But but Trump had nothing.

1404
00:48:53,190 --> 00:48:56,010
You know, he didn't say much about Machado

1405
00:48:56,010 --> 00:48:57,430
being taking over.

1406
00:48:58,010 --> 00:48:59,550
And then he said that she didn't have

1407
00:48:59,550 --> 00:49:00,130
much support.

1408
00:49:00,170 --> 00:49:01,570
And I think what he's referring to is

1409
00:49:01,570 --> 00:49:03,170
the fact that they dropped her into the

1410
00:49:03,170 --> 00:49:03,510
government.

1411
00:49:03,630 --> 00:49:06,030
They just shoot her because she doesn't have

1412
00:49:06,030 --> 00:49:08,590
any support from the goons that are really

1413
00:49:08,590 --> 00:49:10,250
still at the top of the of the

1414
00:49:10,250 --> 00:49:10,610
pyramid.

1415
00:49:10,610 --> 00:49:14,430
You know, what's interesting by omission in this

1416
00:49:14,430 --> 00:49:15,210
whole story?

1417
00:49:15,490 --> 00:49:16,650
Where's J.D. Vance?

1418
00:49:17,430 --> 00:49:18,330
He's nowhere.

1419
00:49:19,030 --> 00:49:19,630
He's not.

1420
00:49:19,790 --> 00:49:20,630
He's doing dances.

1421
00:49:20,870 --> 00:49:22,050
He's got a lot of weight.

1422
00:49:22,190 --> 00:49:23,250
He's got long hair now.

1423
00:49:23,390 --> 00:49:25,470
Have you seen these fat J.D.? Fat

1424
00:49:25,470 --> 00:49:26,650
J.D.? He's floating around.

1425
00:49:26,710 --> 00:49:27,130
He's on the net.

1426
00:49:27,150 --> 00:49:28,610
But also, I'm waiting for Besant.

1427
00:49:28,870 --> 00:49:30,110
Scott Besant has to do.

1428
00:49:30,330 --> 00:49:32,530
I mean, money has to come in somehow.

1429
00:49:34,030 --> 00:49:35,850
And they must.

1430
00:49:35,850 --> 00:49:37,530
But this is like Rubio's op.

1431
00:49:37,850 --> 00:49:40,430
Well, he has to have a plan because,

1432
00:49:40,650 --> 00:49:45,810
you know, there's still drug cartels, drug lines,

1433
00:49:46,350 --> 00:49:48,570
money laundering, all of that still in place.

1434
00:49:48,650 --> 00:49:51,310
So they've got to be they've got to

1435
00:49:51,310 --> 00:49:53,010
have some kind of plan for this, because

1436
00:49:53,010 --> 00:49:56,370
I'm pretty sure you take 96 hours.

1437
00:49:56,510 --> 00:49:59,910
And if people aren't seeing some bread, they're

1438
00:49:59,910 --> 00:50:01,350
going to they're going to go nuts.

1439
00:50:01,850 --> 00:50:02,290
Yeah.

1440
00:50:02,390 --> 00:50:03,810
Well, maybe that's what they wanted to do.

1441
00:50:04,010 --> 00:50:07,770
So so there's all this discussion about Machado.

1442
00:50:07,990 --> 00:50:10,970
And so I luckily caught Sky News is

1443
00:50:10,970 --> 00:50:13,150
the only only group that actually put her

1444
00:50:13,150 --> 00:50:13,830
on the air.

1445
00:50:14,010 --> 00:50:14,670
Oh, wow.

1446
00:50:14,770 --> 00:50:15,830
OK, let's listen to that.

1447
00:50:15,910 --> 00:50:17,730
So I have a clip of her talking.

1448
00:50:17,970 --> 00:50:19,450
So we get so she's not like, you

1449
00:50:19,450 --> 00:50:22,330
know, just a character in the ether.

1450
00:50:22,410 --> 00:50:25,210
This is Machado on Sky News explaining whatever

1451
00:50:25,210 --> 00:50:26,070
she's explaining.

1452
00:50:26,070 --> 00:50:29,710
Some people talk about invasion in Venezuela and

1453
00:50:29,710 --> 00:50:31,230
the threat of an invasion in Venezuela.

1454
00:50:31,430 --> 00:50:33,890
And I answered Venezuela was has been already

1455
00:50:33,890 --> 00:50:34,270
invaded.

1456
00:50:34,870 --> 00:50:36,490
We have the Russian agents.

1457
00:50:36,850 --> 00:50:38,330
We have the Iranian agents.

1458
00:50:38,610 --> 00:50:41,770
We have terrorist groups such as Hezbollah Hamas

1459
00:50:41,770 --> 00:50:44,690
operating freely in accordance with the regime.

1460
00:50:44,990 --> 00:50:48,770
We have the Colombian guerrilla, the drug cartels

1461
00:50:48,770 --> 00:50:50,790
that have taken over 60 percent of our

1462
00:50:50,790 --> 00:50:51,310
populations.

1463
00:50:51,310 --> 00:50:53,470
And not only involved in drug trafficking, but

1464
00:50:53,470 --> 00:50:56,730
in human trafficking in networks of prostitution.

1465
00:50:57,490 --> 00:51:01,030
So this has turned Venezuela into the criminal

1466
00:51:01,030 --> 00:51:01,990
hub of the Americas.

1467
00:51:02,630 --> 00:51:05,330
And what sustained the regime is a very

1468
00:51:05,330 --> 00:51:10,010
powerful and funded, strongly funded repression system.

1469
00:51:10,390 --> 00:51:12,470
Where does that funds come from?

1470
00:51:12,990 --> 00:51:15,490
Well, from drug trafficking, from the black market

1471
00:51:15,490 --> 00:51:19,110
of oil, from arms trafficking, for human trafficking.

1472
00:51:19,110 --> 00:51:21,270
We need to cut those flows.

1473
00:51:21,890 --> 00:51:26,190
And once it happens and repression is weakened,

1474
00:51:26,670 --> 00:51:27,810
it's over.

1475
00:51:27,910 --> 00:51:29,790
Because that's the only thing the regime has

1476
00:51:29,790 --> 00:51:31,490
left, violence and terror.

1477
00:51:31,810 --> 00:51:34,990
So we asked the international community to cut

1478
00:51:34,990 --> 00:51:35,790
those sources.

1479
00:51:36,230 --> 00:51:41,370
Because the other regimes that support Maduro and

1480
00:51:41,370 --> 00:51:43,290
the criminal structure are very active.

1481
00:51:43,290 --> 00:51:46,630
And have turned Venezuela into the safe haven

1482
00:51:46,630 --> 00:51:49,850
for their operations into the rest of Latin

1483
00:51:49,850 --> 00:51:50,230
America.

1484
00:51:50,510 --> 00:51:52,950
Yeah, I'm pretty sure we've got CIA all

1485
00:51:52,950 --> 00:51:53,750
over the place.

1486
00:51:53,990 --> 00:51:55,670
We've got OFAC.

1487
00:51:56,210 --> 00:51:56,790
Is that it?

1488
00:51:56,870 --> 00:51:57,430
The OFAC?

1489
00:51:57,750 --> 00:52:00,790
The Office of Financial Affairs.

1490
00:52:01,490 --> 00:52:03,490
They've got to be looking at everything.

1491
00:52:03,670 --> 00:52:06,150
And I just want to say that there's

1492
00:52:06,150 --> 00:52:09,990
such a simpleton idea out there.

1493
00:52:10,010 --> 00:52:11,110
It's in the troll room too.

1494
00:52:11,110 --> 00:52:12,910
It's about the oil, man.

1495
00:52:12,970 --> 00:52:14,030
They just want to steal the oil.

1496
00:52:14,630 --> 00:52:17,190
Well, first of all, that is in fact

1497
00:52:17,190 --> 00:52:18,730
our oil refineries.

1498
00:52:19,030 --> 00:52:20,370
We just talked about that.

1499
00:52:20,870 --> 00:52:21,710
That was stolen.

1500
00:52:22,410 --> 00:52:24,570
All these weak presidents did nothing about it.

1501
00:52:25,350 --> 00:52:27,330
And yeah, that's American sovereignty.

1502
00:52:27,510 --> 00:52:28,330
That's our stuff.

1503
00:52:28,410 --> 00:52:29,090
We had a deal.

1504
00:52:30,690 --> 00:52:31,890
Yeah, we had a deal.

1505
00:52:31,890 --> 00:52:32,530
We had a deal.

1506
00:52:32,930 --> 00:52:34,910
So yes, it's about the oil.

1507
00:52:35,010 --> 00:52:36,850
And we will sell the oil to everybody

1508
00:52:36,850 --> 00:52:37,670
who wants it.

1509
00:52:37,670 --> 00:52:41,350
But that money flow going into these corrupt

1510
00:52:41,350 --> 00:52:43,850
networks, I think the North Sea Nexus has

1511
00:52:43,850 --> 00:52:46,070
got to be somewhat worried at this point.

1512
00:52:46,230 --> 00:52:48,670
Like, whoops, are they tracking us?

1513
00:52:48,750 --> 00:52:49,530
Do they know where it's...

1514
00:52:49,530 --> 00:52:51,970
I mean, they probably got lazy throughout the

1515
00:52:51,970 --> 00:52:52,430
years.

1516
00:52:53,210 --> 00:52:54,130
Oh, absolutely.

1517
00:52:54,630 --> 00:52:55,790
There's no question about it.

1518
00:52:55,790 --> 00:52:56,950
That's what happens with everybody.

1519
00:52:57,130 --> 00:52:57,910
It's what you do.

1520
00:52:58,190 --> 00:52:58,830
But it's so...

1521
00:52:58,830 --> 00:52:59,490
You get lazy.

1522
00:52:59,650 --> 00:53:00,290
Oh, you know.

1523
00:53:00,690 --> 00:53:04,210
It's so strange to see people with so

1524
00:53:04,210 --> 00:53:05,330
simple minded.

1525
00:53:05,330 --> 00:53:08,310
I mean, even people I like from the

1526
00:53:08,310 --> 00:53:08,590
UK.

1527
00:53:09,150 --> 00:53:11,170
It's like, why pay for the oil when

1528
00:53:11,170 --> 00:53:12,270
you can just steal it?

1529
00:53:12,410 --> 00:53:13,330
Hashtag bullies.

1530
00:53:16,630 --> 00:53:17,630
That's a good one.

1531
00:53:18,270 --> 00:53:19,090
Hashtag bullies.

1532
00:53:19,290 --> 00:53:21,830
A friend of ours knows a plastic surgeon

1533
00:53:21,830 --> 00:53:25,170
who was on vacation on some Caribbean island,

1534
00:53:25,470 --> 00:53:27,410
you know, Ufi or Ifi, I don't know

1535
00:53:27,410 --> 00:53:27,970
what it is.

1536
00:53:27,970 --> 00:53:30,910
And he was like, oh, great.

1537
00:53:31,210 --> 00:53:33,610
Now I can't fly home because of Trump's

1538
00:53:33,610 --> 00:53:34,710
private war.

1539
00:53:35,150 --> 00:53:40,050
It's like the ignorance of people, the non

1540
00:53:40,050 --> 00:53:43,310
-informed, just not even...

1541
00:53:43,310 --> 00:53:44,690
You can even get some of this from

1542
00:53:44,690 --> 00:53:45,190
Wikipedia.

1543
00:53:46,190 --> 00:53:47,330
It's not that hard.

1544
00:53:47,770 --> 00:53:50,310
But people just take spoon fed crap from

1545
00:53:50,310 --> 00:53:54,110
TikTok and Instagram reels and X, put a

1546
00:53:54,110 --> 00:53:55,470
bikini on it.

1547
00:53:55,470 --> 00:53:57,370
And like, oh, I'm good to go.

1548
00:53:57,470 --> 00:53:58,190
I know what's happening.

1549
00:53:58,310 --> 00:53:59,310
Trump is no good.

1550
00:53:59,430 --> 00:54:00,750
Oil just wants the oil.

1551
00:54:04,230 --> 00:54:06,410
It's disappointing is what it is.

1552
00:54:06,550 --> 00:54:08,510
Our education system has failed us.

1553
00:54:08,730 --> 00:54:11,710
This has been your lament for 18 years.

1554
00:54:12,510 --> 00:54:13,690
Yeah, probably right.

1555
00:54:13,890 --> 00:54:15,750
Then this was kind of funny.

1556
00:54:16,270 --> 00:54:18,730
The protest groups, they sent them all out

1557
00:54:18,730 --> 00:54:21,870
into the streets with freshly printed signs right

1558
00:54:21,870 --> 00:54:22,210
away.

1559
00:54:22,210 --> 00:54:24,290
All right, everybody, we got new signs.

1560
00:54:24,630 --> 00:54:26,490
Help us hammer them onto the sticks.

1561
00:54:27,350 --> 00:54:30,270
It's all from the signs of the Party

1562
00:54:30,270 --> 00:54:32,410
for Socialism and Liberation.

1563
00:54:32,910 --> 00:54:34,050
I got one clip.

1564
00:54:34,670 --> 00:54:35,870
I have one, too, after you're done.

1565
00:54:35,970 --> 00:54:36,670
I have Chicago.

1566
00:54:36,890 --> 00:54:37,270
What do you have?

1567
00:54:37,490 --> 00:54:38,110
Would you have Chicago?

1568
00:54:38,450 --> 00:54:38,870
I got Baltimore.

1569
00:54:39,130 --> 00:54:39,390
Oh, OK.

1570
00:54:39,450 --> 00:54:40,090
Here's Chicago.

1571
00:54:42,870 --> 00:54:45,550
Cold temperatures did not deter a strong show

1572
00:54:45,550 --> 00:54:47,390
of support at Federal Plaza in the loop

1573
00:54:47,390 --> 00:54:48,110
on Saturday.

1574
00:54:50,410 --> 00:54:53,690
As demonstrators took a loud, invisible stand against

1575
00:54:53,690 --> 00:54:54,570
U.S. intervention.

1576
00:54:54,710 --> 00:54:56,510
And by the way, every single person you're

1577
00:54:56,510 --> 00:54:58,710
going to hear is white, has a nose

1578
00:54:58,710 --> 00:55:02,150
ring, has a red beanie on, is holding

1579
00:55:02,150 --> 00:55:04,490
a socialism pre-printed sign.

1580
00:55:04,570 --> 00:55:06,590
In Venezuela, the violence that we saw last

1581
00:55:06,590 --> 00:55:09,590
night was completely ruthless and we cannot allow

1582
00:55:09,590 --> 00:55:11,070
this kind of violence from our government.

1583
00:55:11,070 --> 00:55:13,850
Several local Chicago groups issued an urgent call

1584
00:55:13,850 --> 00:55:17,270
for an emergency protest following a controversial operation

1585
00:55:17,270 --> 00:55:20,270
that led to the detention of Venezuela's President

1586
00:55:20,270 --> 00:55:23,150
Nicolás Maduro and his wife, with Trump asserting

1587
00:55:23,150 --> 00:55:24,950
that the U.S. government would step in

1588
00:55:24,950 --> 00:55:25,870
to run the country.

1589
00:55:26,170 --> 00:55:29,170
President Trump claims Venezuela's oil has funded drug

1590
00:55:29,170 --> 00:55:32,190
trafficking and other crimes, using this as justification

1591
00:55:32,190 --> 00:55:33,290
for intervention.

1592
00:55:33,690 --> 00:55:35,910
It doesn't matter who does or doesn't support

1593
00:55:35,910 --> 00:55:36,250
Maduro.

1594
00:55:36,250 --> 00:55:39,450
It's completely outrageous and against international law for

1595
00:55:39,450 --> 00:55:42,110
the U.S. to attack him.

1596
00:55:42,770 --> 00:55:45,650
Where was your protest when they nationalized our

1597
00:55:45,650 --> 00:55:46,390
oil companies?

1598
00:55:46,530 --> 00:55:48,690
Where was your international law then, you twerp?

1599
00:55:48,790 --> 00:55:49,970
Try to unseat him.

1600
00:55:50,110 --> 00:55:52,310
You can say that the Venezuelan government hasn't

1601
00:55:52,310 --> 00:55:54,590
been great, and I'd argue that's probably true.

1602
00:55:55,050 --> 00:55:58,150
But I would also say that going into

1603
00:55:58,150 --> 00:56:04,910
another useless war, abducting someone seems morally unquestionably

1604
00:56:04,910 --> 00:56:05,230
wrong.

1605
00:56:06,090 --> 00:56:09,190
The protest spilled into the streets as demonstrators

1606
00:56:09,190 --> 00:56:13,990
voiced opposition to foreign military intervention, defended Venezuelan

1607
00:56:13,990 --> 00:56:17,270
independence, and blasted what organizers described as an

1608
00:56:17,270 --> 00:56:19,450
illegal and dangerous escalation.

1609
00:56:19,730 --> 00:56:20,630
Yeah, all right.

1610
00:56:20,750 --> 00:56:23,510
I guarantee you, I guarantee you there's a

1611
00:56:23,510 --> 00:56:25,530
smartmatic angle to this.

1612
00:56:26,070 --> 00:56:27,370
This guy looked happy.

1613
00:56:28,190 --> 00:56:30,070
He was like, oh, God, I'm safe.

1614
00:56:30,450 --> 00:56:32,750
Take my wife too, please, please, please.

1615
00:56:32,890 --> 00:56:34,110
Okay, we'll bring her too.

1616
00:56:34,110 --> 00:56:35,210
And the kid.

1617
00:56:35,430 --> 00:56:37,350
They got the kid, they took his son.

1618
00:56:39,510 --> 00:56:41,570
They captured a son as well.

1619
00:56:41,830 --> 00:56:43,070
Yes, absolutely.

1620
00:56:44,350 --> 00:56:45,650
Trump is no dummy.

1621
00:56:45,810 --> 00:56:47,150
He knows what he's doing.

1622
00:56:47,610 --> 00:56:48,990
It's going to be fun to watch.

1623
00:56:49,330 --> 00:56:50,030
All right, Baltimore.

1624
00:56:50,510 --> 00:56:52,110
Demonstrations in Maryland today.

1625
00:56:53,190 --> 00:56:53,290
I'm sorry.

1626
00:56:53,750 --> 00:56:53,970
What?

1627
00:56:54,770 --> 00:56:55,650
I said I'm sorry.

1628
00:56:55,910 --> 00:56:56,930
Oh, it's okay.

1629
00:56:57,290 --> 00:56:58,290
Apology accepted.

1630
00:56:58,670 --> 00:57:00,110
You should say my bad.

1631
00:57:01,450 --> 00:57:02,550
I'm never saying that.

1632
00:57:02,550 --> 00:57:06,010
Demonstrations in Maryland today as residents and lawmakers

1633
00:57:06,010 --> 00:57:08,450
rallied against the U.S. military operation.

1634
00:57:08,770 --> 00:57:11,550
Scott Macione from Member Station WYPR has more.

1635
00:57:11,950 --> 00:57:14,670
After the Trump administration's surprise attack in Venezuela,

1636
00:57:14,990 --> 00:57:17,570
protesters converged on Baltimore's City Hall.

1637
00:57:18,090 --> 00:57:20,570
Rachel Vicara of Baltimore's Party for Socialism and

1638
00:57:20,570 --> 00:57:24,370
Liberation, Baltimore's Party for Socialism and Liberation, Baltimore's

1639
00:57:24,370 --> 00:57:27,250
Party for Socialism and Liberation, helped organize the

1640
00:57:27,250 --> 00:57:27,790
protest.

1641
00:57:27,790 --> 00:57:30,890
There is no shortage of needs that the

1642
00:57:30,890 --> 00:57:32,190
people in the U.S. face.

1643
00:57:32,690 --> 00:57:36,530
We want these taxpayer dollars to meet people's

1644
00:57:36,530 --> 00:57:40,330
needs ultimately and not destroy other countries on

1645
00:57:40,330 --> 00:57:42,930
behalf of, in this case, oil executives.

1646
00:57:43,110 --> 00:57:45,790
Maryland U.S. Representative Johnny Oshkoski, who serves

1647
00:57:45,790 --> 00:57:47,890
on the Foreign Affairs Committee, says he's deeply

1648
00:57:47,890 --> 00:57:50,430
concerned by President Trump's comments that the United

1649
00:57:50,430 --> 00:57:51,710
States will run Venezuela.

1650
00:57:52,450 --> 00:57:54,230
Oshkoski says he and other members of the

1651
00:57:54,230 --> 00:57:56,750
committee are pushing for a briefing from the

1652
00:57:56,750 --> 00:57:57,210
White House.

1653
00:57:57,210 --> 00:58:00,710
This was actually on the podcasting 2.0,

1654
00:58:02,050 --> 00:58:03,130
Mastodon.

1655
00:58:03,390 --> 00:58:06,110
I shy away from politics, but someone sent

1656
00:58:06,110 --> 00:58:09,170
me a DM and I said, hey, man,

1657
00:58:09,290 --> 00:58:10,270
go look at the history.

1658
00:58:10,590 --> 00:58:12,650
They stole these companies from us.

1659
00:58:13,370 --> 00:58:15,810
And what happens is the lefty's favorite word

1660
00:58:15,810 --> 00:58:16,770
is whataboutism.

1661
00:58:17,070 --> 00:58:20,330
Yeah, well, haven't we just done bad deals

1662
00:58:20,330 --> 00:58:20,850
with people?

1663
00:58:23,430 --> 00:58:25,530
Read your history, moron.

1664
00:58:25,530 --> 00:58:27,010
There's kind of a new guy there.

1665
00:58:27,130 --> 00:58:27,850
Who is that?

1666
00:58:29,070 --> 00:58:30,030
Come on, man.

1667
00:58:30,470 --> 00:58:31,630
This is a new guy.

1668
00:58:32,130 --> 00:58:33,310
He's a new guy.

1669
00:58:33,450 --> 00:58:33,850
He's a friend.

1670
00:58:33,930 --> 00:58:34,550
I blocked him.

1671
00:58:34,690 --> 00:58:36,110
I've now gotten into blocking.

1672
00:58:36,330 --> 00:58:38,490
I'm in the JCD school.

1673
00:58:39,090 --> 00:58:41,110
It's just, it's like you answer someone.

1674
00:58:43,610 --> 00:58:44,010
Block.

1675
00:58:44,010 --> 00:58:44,410
Block.

1676
00:58:44,830 --> 00:58:45,650
I'm going to block you.

1677
00:58:45,810 --> 00:58:46,930
There's no time for this.

1678
00:58:48,310 --> 00:58:49,370
I'm too old now.

1679
00:58:49,510 --> 00:58:49,810
I'm old.

1680
00:58:49,930 --> 00:58:50,530
I'm a boomer.

1681
00:58:50,630 --> 00:58:51,190
I'm a boomer.

1682
00:58:51,590 --> 00:58:53,010
Two more tips and I'm done.

1683
00:58:53,090 --> 00:58:53,630
I'm out of here.

1684
00:58:53,710 --> 00:58:54,490
Yeah, boomer block.

1685
00:58:54,490 --> 00:58:56,750
Let's start with the last two.

1686
00:58:56,870 --> 00:58:59,230
One is the analysis from NPR, but I

1687
00:58:59,230 --> 00:59:00,470
also want to get this one in.

1688
00:59:00,530 --> 00:59:01,870
They're both from NPR, so let's start with

1689
00:59:01,870 --> 00:59:02,770
the basic.

1690
00:59:03,170 --> 00:59:05,370
Maduro, important analysis, NPR.

1691
00:59:06,010 --> 00:59:06,410
Okay.

1692
00:59:07,070 --> 00:59:10,710
Franco, where in this puzzle does Machado, Maria

1693
00:59:10,710 --> 00:59:12,850
Corrino Machado, who just won the Nobel Peace

1694
00:59:12,850 --> 00:59:15,790
Prize, a leader in the Venezuelan opposition, where

1695
00:59:15,790 --> 00:59:16,370
does she fit?

1696
00:59:16,530 --> 00:59:18,550
A wildly popular opposition leader.

1697
00:59:19,170 --> 00:59:21,790
Interestingly, though, Trump did not throw his support

1698
00:59:21,790 --> 00:59:22,410
behind her.

1699
00:59:22,410 --> 00:59:24,790
Here's what he said about Machado.

1700
00:59:25,030 --> 00:59:26,210
I think it would be very tough for

1701
00:59:26,210 --> 00:59:27,550
her to be the leader if she doesn't

1702
00:59:27,550 --> 00:59:28,650
have the support.

1703
00:59:28,950 --> 00:59:31,490
Trump said she is a very nice woman,

1704
00:59:31,630 --> 00:59:34,290
but that she just doesn't have the backing

1705
00:59:34,290 --> 00:59:35,210
of the people.

1706
00:59:35,390 --> 00:59:38,230
Some strong, profound statements about the opposition leader.

1707
00:59:38,990 --> 00:59:41,410
Let me turn you to oil and how

1708
00:59:41,410 --> 00:59:43,850
oil fits into this, because President Trump had

1709
00:59:43,850 --> 00:59:45,470
a lot to say about the oil reserves,

1710
00:59:45,670 --> 00:59:47,250
how they're going to foot the bill for

1711
00:59:47,250 --> 00:59:49,430
everything going forward in Venezuela.

1712
00:59:49,430 --> 00:59:52,770
I don't think he actually said that, actually.

1713
00:59:53,710 --> 00:59:54,530
I don't think he said that.

1714
00:59:54,550 --> 00:59:55,410
No, he didn't say that.

1715
00:59:55,590 --> 00:59:56,710
Read the significance of that.

1716
00:59:56,930 --> 00:59:58,590
I mean, it's very significant.

1717
00:59:58,810 --> 01:00:00,930
I mean, we didn't hear much talk about

1718
01:00:00,930 --> 01:00:04,410
reestablishing democracy in Venezuela during this presser.

1719
01:00:04,690 --> 01:00:06,850
Frankly, we didn't hear that that much talk

1720
01:00:06,850 --> 01:00:08,610
about drug trafficking either.

1721
01:00:08,850 --> 01:00:10,830
Which was the initial premise for all of

1722
01:00:10,830 --> 01:00:12,630
this, we were told, going after drug votes.

1723
01:00:12,750 --> 01:00:12,990
Go on.

1724
01:00:13,190 --> 01:00:13,490
Exactly.

1725
01:00:13,670 --> 01:00:13,970
Go on.

1726
01:00:14,190 --> 01:00:15,490
Oh, she's doing a CARA.

1727
01:00:16,090 --> 01:00:17,110
She's doing a CARA.

1728
01:00:17,370 --> 01:00:17,710
Go on.

1729
01:00:17,710 --> 01:00:18,310
I heard that.

1730
01:00:18,370 --> 01:00:20,890
When I heard that, too, I heard that

1731
01:00:20,890 --> 01:00:22,650
when she did it, and I said, ah,

1732
01:00:23,130 --> 01:00:24,590
Adam's going to catch it.

1733
01:00:24,810 --> 01:00:25,110
Go on.

1734
01:00:25,330 --> 01:00:28,970
Talk about reestablishing democracy in Venezuela during this

1735
01:00:28,970 --> 01:00:29,290
presser.

1736
01:00:29,590 --> 01:00:31,750
Frankly, we didn't hear that that much talk

1737
01:00:31,750 --> 01:00:33,490
about drug trafficking either.

1738
01:00:33,770 --> 01:00:35,710
Which was the initial premise for all of

1739
01:00:35,710 --> 01:00:37,530
this, we were told, going after drug votes.

1740
01:00:37,630 --> 01:00:37,890
Go on.

1741
01:00:38,070 --> 01:00:38,430
Exactly.

1742
01:00:38,810 --> 01:00:41,610
The focus today was largely on oil.

1743
01:00:42,090 --> 01:00:44,070
Venezuela, of course, has some of the largest

1744
01:00:44,070 --> 01:00:45,490
oil reserves in the world.

1745
01:00:45,490 --> 01:00:47,930
And let's be clear, U.S. involvement in

1746
01:00:47,930 --> 01:00:50,930
the Venezuelan oil industry would be a huge,

1747
01:00:51,070 --> 01:00:51,650
huge deal.

1748
01:00:51,930 --> 01:00:55,730
Though reestablishing it would be wildly expensive and

1749
01:00:55,730 --> 01:00:57,470
a really long-term project.

1750
01:00:57,850 --> 01:00:59,750
And it's also kind of unclear as of

1751
01:00:59,750 --> 01:01:02,650
now which companies would undertake this challenge.

1752
01:01:03,110 --> 01:01:05,530
Now, Trump claimed that it would not cost

1753
01:01:05,530 --> 01:01:07,550
the U.S. any money because he expects

1754
01:01:07,550 --> 01:01:10,610
U.S. oil companies will happily invest billions

1755
01:01:10,610 --> 01:01:13,410
of dollars to rebuild Venezuela's oil structure.

1756
01:01:13,410 --> 01:01:16,350
But the reality is that oil, or at

1757
01:01:16,350 --> 01:01:18,130
least he says, the oil would then be

1758
01:01:18,130 --> 01:01:20,750
extracted and sold for a profit to benefit

1759
01:01:20,750 --> 01:01:23,490
both Venezuelans and the U.S. Now, he

1760
01:01:23,490 --> 01:01:25,910
says the U.S. troops may be necessary

1761
01:01:25,910 --> 01:01:28,430
to protect the oil, but he is not

1762
01:01:28,430 --> 01:01:30,470
afraid of U.S. boots on the ground.

1763
01:01:30,910 --> 01:01:32,770
And that is a tremendous statement for President

1764
01:01:32,770 --> 01:01:35,590
Trump considering his aversion to military intervention in

1765
01:01:35,590 --> 01:01:36,050
the past.

1766
01:01:36,430 --> 01:01:38,430
Ah, boots on the ground, boots on the

1767
01:01:38,430 --> 01:01:39,930
ground, boots on the ground.

1768
01:01:40,490 --> 01:01:41,030
Boots on the ground.

1769
01:01:41,030 --> 01:01:43,430
This is a lot of conjecture.

1770
01:01:43,590 --> 01:01:46,090
I mean, NPR is actually way behind on

1771
01:01:46,090 --> 01:01:46,210
it.

1772
01:01:46,230 --> 01:01:48,250
I looked at all my clips and NPR

1773
01:01:48,250 --> 01:01:51,470
was behind CNN in so far as the

1774
01:01:51,470 --> 01:01:51,870
quality.

1775
01:01:52,050 --> 01:01:54,150
But so this is my last clip is

1776
01:01:54,150 --> 01:01:55,050
NPR and it's there.

1777
01:01:55,730 --> 01:01:56,850
This is the Maduro China.

1778
01:01:56,850 --> 01:02:00,510
This is the China reaction, which was mocked

1779
01:02:00,510 --> 01:02:03,070
by everybody because China, you know, is not

1780
01:02:03,070 --> 01:02:06,390
just based on what they did in Libya.

1781
01:02:06,610 --> 01:02:06,810
They hoofed it.

1782
01:02:06,810 --> 01:02:07,310
It's what they do.

1783
01:02:07,350 --> 01:02:07,830
They hoofed it.

1784
01:02:07,850 --> 01:02:09,170
You know, we got other things to do

1785
01:02:09,170 --> 01:02:09,650
with our time.

1786
01:02:09,650 --> 01:02:10,550
We're not getting involved.

1787
01:02:10,670 --> 01:02:11,730
We can't take care of this.

1788
01:02:11,850 --> 01:02:12,690
You were out of here.

1789
01:02:12,730 --> 01:02:13,230
Best price.

1790
01:02:13,330 --> 01:02:13,670
We out.

1791
01:02:13,850 --> 01:02:15,730
China says it's warning its citizens not to

1792
01:02:15,730 --> 01:02:18,710
travel to Venezuela and says it's closely monitoring

1793
01:02:18,710 --> 01:02:21,490
the situation in that country where China was

1794
01:02:21,490 --> 01:02:23,610
the biggest buyer of Venezuelan oil.

1795
01:02:24,090 --> 01:02:25,450
NPR's Emily Fang has more.

1796
01:02:25,890 --> 01:02:28,890
Although Venezuela contributed just a tiny fraction of

1797
01:02:28,890 --> 01:02:31,410
the oil China imports for the South American

1798
01:02:31,410 --> 01:02:35,470
nation, China was its primary customer, ferrying sanctioned

1799
01:02:35,470 --> 01:02:38,450
oil from Venezuela to small refineries on China's

1800
01:02:38,450 --> 01:02:41,690
east coast on what analysts term a shadow

1801
01:02:41,690 --> 01:02:44,690
fleet of ships left unregistered or with their

1802
01:02:44,690 --> 01:02:47,230
trackers off in order to evade sanctions.

1803
01:02:47,750 --> 01:02:49,650
Over the last few weeks, Beijing has been

1804
01:02:49,650 --> 01:02:52,010
outspoken against U.S. strikes on boats in

1805
01:02:52,010 --> 01:02:52,450
the Caribbean.

1806
01:02:52,450 --> 01:02:55,410
And on Saturday, China's foreign ministry said the

1807
01:02:55,410 --> 01:02:58,110
U.S.'s seizure of Venezuelan President Maduro and

1808
01:02:58,110 --> 01:03:01,290
his wife were, quote, hegemonic acts and strongly

1809
01:03:01,290 --> 01:03:04,070
condemned the attack as a violation of international

1810
01:03:04,070 --> 01:03:04,530
law.

1811
01:03:04,630 --> 01:03:04,850
No.

1812
01:03:05,350 --> 01:03:05,850
OK.

1813
01:03:06,550 --> 01:03:08,590
Russia also had a strong statement.

1814
01:03:08,730 --> 01:03:09,310
They don't care.

1815
01:03:09,450 --> 01:03:12,890
They put out a strong press release.

1816
01:03:12,930 --> 01:03:13,130
Yeah.

1817
01:03:13,210 --> 01:03:14,210
Can we still buy?

1818
01:03:14,350 --> 01:03:15,070
That's the question.

1819
01:03:15,230 --> 01:03:17,130
I got a clip from just about the

1820
01:03:17,130 --> 01:03:17,470
drugs.

1821
01:03:17,510 --> 01:03:19,470
I got a clip from France 24.

1822
01:03:19,470 --> 01:03:22,210
They have a journalist who I guess is

1823
01:03:22,210 --> 01:03:23,850
boots on the ground in Venezuela.

1824
01:03:24,170 --> 01:03:25,930
And here's what she had to say.

1825
01:03:26,190 --> 01:03:29,090
I think that every Venezuelan was surprised, even

1826
01:03:29,090 --> 01:03:33,370
the military, the military and personal, even the

1827
01:03:33,370 --> 01:03:36,230
whole statement of the government.

1828
01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:40,890
There is not one person in this country

1829
01:03:40,890 --> 01:03:44,710
which could have been aware of what's what

1830
01:03:44,710 --> 01:03:45,770
was going on.

1831
01:03:45,950 --> 01:03:49,090
Even the response was kind of late for

1832
01:03:49,090 --> 01:03:49,910
what was happening.

1833
01:03:50,670 --> 01:03:52,990
Most of the electricity went down.

1834
01:03:53,230 --> 01:03:56,310
Even cell phone carriers went down.

1835
01:03:56,450 --> 01:03:59,590
So it was a very confusing situation at

1836
01:03:59,590 --> 01:04:02,450
the moment, even for the government and for

1837
01:04:02,450 --> 01:04:03,770
Venezuelans, of course.

1838
01:04:03,770 --> 01:04:08,010
The drugs smuggling and trafficking allegation has been

1839
01:04:08,010 --> 01:04:13,210
broadly covered by private investigations, by international and

1840
01:04:13,210 --> 01:04:14,310
independent media.

1841
01:04:14,810 --> 01:04:16,730
But since I am a journalist and I

1842
01:04:16,730 --> 01:04:20,510
haven't seen the proof in my hands that,

1843
01:04:20,690 --> 01:04:23,270
in fact, Maduro was smuggling drugs, I will

1844
01:04:23,270 --> 01:04:27,190
be very conservative to say that, to assert

1845
01:04:27,190 --> 01:04:28,490
that this is a fact.

1846
01:04:28,490 --> 01:04:32,090
I mean, even the Americans are asking or

1847
01:04:32,090 --> 01:04:35,410
demanding to Trump to present the proof because

1848
01:04:35,410 --> 01:04:37,650
this operation was not a minor thing.

1849
01:04:38,050 --> 01:04:40,270
This was a very expensive and a very

1850
01:04:40,270 --> 01:04:45,050
dangerous operation, even for military, for U.S.

1851
01:04:45,150 --> 01:04:45,890
military personnel.

1852
01:04:46,250 --> 01:04:47,230
So there's no proof.

1853
01:04:47,430 --> 01:04:48,210
There's no drugs.

1854
01:04:49,470 --> 01:04:52,970
The indictment, you know, the one thing that

1855
01:04:52,970 --> 01:04:55,210
is not being discussed, which is the indictment,

1856
01:04:55,330 --> 01:04:59,570
which is allows by using the second Article

1857
01:04:59,570 --> 01:05:01,830
two of the Constitution allows Trump to do

1858
01:05:01,830 --> 01:05:03,550
all this, no matter what anyone likes to

1859
01:05:03,550 --> 01:05:06,690
think about it being unconstitutional, is the indictment.

1860
01:05:06,810 --> 01:05:10,430
Very clearly points out all they have been

1861
01:05:10,430 --> 01:05:14,490
capturing audio tapes, tapping his phone.

1862
01:05:14,590 --> 01:05:16,110
It's been going on for years.

1863
01:05:16,630 --> 01:05:19,270
Everyone who's looked at the indictment against Maduro

1864
01:05:19,270 --> 01:05:20,850
says it's ironclad.

1865
01:05:21,010 --> 01:05:23,190
And I put a copy of said indictment

1866
01:05:23,190 --> 01:05:24,070
into the show notes.

1867
01:05:24,150 --> 01:05:25,690
Everybody can read it for themselves.

1868
01:05:25,930 --> 01:05:28,410
So this woman is a stooge, whoever she

1869
01:05:28,410 --> 01:05:28,510
is.

1870
01:05:28,510 --> 01:05:31,830
Well, France 24, that's that's the the nexus

1871
01:05:31,830 --> 01:05:33,230
is out there like, oh, we don't even

1872
01:05:33,230 --> 01:05:34,450
know the drugs, but we can go back

1873
01:05:34,450 --> 01:05:35,270
to 1989.

1874
01:05:35,270 --> 01:05:36,910
I love it when these clips pop up.

1875
01:05:36,910 --> 01:05:39,730
When Joe Biden himself spoke on behalf of

1876
01:05:39,730 --> 01:05:42,830
the Democrat Party about the necessity, the necessity

1877
01:05:42,830 --> 01:05:45,450
to go in and stop the scourge of

1878
01:05:45,450 --> 01:05:46,430
drug networks.

1879
01:05:46,670 --> 01:05:49,170
Every president for the past two decades, Democrat

1880
01:05:49,170 --> 01:05:52,750
and Republican alike, has declared war on drugs.

1881
01:05:52,970 --> 01:05:55,310
And each of them has lost that war

1882
01:05:55,310 --> 01:05:56,630
and lost it miserably.

1883
01:05:57,110 --> 01:05:59,190
They lost because they attempted to deal with

1884
01:05:59,190 --> 01:06:00,570
only part of the drug problem.

1885
01:06:00,570 --> 01:06:03,710
They lost because their initiatives were pulled apart

1886
01:06:03,710 --> 01:06:06,670
by bureaucratic squabbling among their advisers.

1887
01:06:07,070 --> 01:06:09,690
They lost because they always did too little

1888
01:06:09,690 --> 01:06:11,090
and they did it too late.

1889
01:06:11,230 --> 01:06:12,810
We don't oppose the president's plan.

1890
01:06:13,370 --> 01:06:15,070
All we want to do is strengthen it.

1891
01:06:15,270 --> 01:06:16,670
That's President Bush at the time.

1892
01:06:16,730 --> 01:06:17,890
We don't doubt his resolve.

1893
01:06:18,550 --> 01:06:20,110
All we want to do is stiffen it.

1894
01:06:20,550 --> 01:06:22,890
The trouble is that the president's proposals are

1895
01:06:22,890 --> 01:06:24,710
not big enough to deal with the problem.

1896
01:06:25,270 --> 01:06:27,090
We think we should do more to stem

1897
01:06:27,090 --> 01:06:28,830
the flow of drugs across our borders.

1898
01:06:28,830 --> 01:06:31,070
And we think we should go one step

1899
01:06:31,070 --> 01:06:31,450
further.

1900
01:06:32,110 --> 01:06:34,970
Let's go after the drug lords where they

1901
01:06:34,970 --> 01:06:37,950
live with an international strike force.

1902
01:06:38,410 --> 01:06:40,590
There must be no safe haven for these

1903
01:06:40,590 --> 01:06:41,550
narco-terrorists.

1904
01:06:41,770 --> 01:06:43,670
And they must know it.

1905
01:06:43,850 --> 01:06:45,790
We have to lock up the dealers for

1906
01:06:45,790 --> 01:06:47,090
a long, long time.

1907
01:06:47,610 --> 01:06:49,730
And we have to attack the source from

1908
01:06:49,730 --> 01:06:50,590
which the drugs come.

1909
01:06:50,930 --> 01:06:52,490
And we have to do that, not a

1910
01:06:52,490 --> 01:06:54,310
piece at a time, but all at once.

1911
01:06:54,490 --> 01:06:56,010
And we have to do it now.

1912
01:06:56,010 --> 01:06:58,750
And there's not any reason why we can't

1913
01:06:58,750 --> 01:06:59,150
do that.

1914
01:06:59,330 --> 01:07:00,570
We have the power.

1915
01:07:00,730 --> 01:07:01,690
We have the money.

1916
01:07:01,710 --> 01:07:02,730
And we have the knowledge.

1917
01:07:03,070 --> 01:07:04,350
My, how things change.

1918
01:07:04,450 --> 01:07:05,410
Where was the outrage?

1919
01:07:05,930 --> 01:07:07,890
Using Joe Biden's old clip.

1920
01:07:08,150 --> 01:07:10,830
Because back in the day when he was

1921
01:07:10,830 --> 01:07:12,690
erudite, he could actually speak.

1922
01:07:12,770 --> 01:07:14,270
He never stuttered, by the way.

1923
01:07:14,610 --> 01:07:15,570
No, he's a stutterer.

1924
01:07:15,770 --> 01:07:16,490
He's a stutterer.

1925
01:07:16,730 --> 01:07:17,830
He's a stutterer.

1926
01:07:17,910 --> 01:07:18,430
His whole life, stutterer.

1927
01:07:18,430 --> 01:07:19,350
He never stuttered.

1928
01:07:19,390 --> 01:07:21,670
He was straightforward and very clear.

1929
01:07:21,670 --> 01:07:25,330
And so you don't want a president like

1930
01:07:25,330 --> 01:07:25,830
that.

1931
01:07:26,070 --> 01:07:29,370
Let's wait until he's into total dementia and

1932
01:07:29,370 --> 01:07:31,310
can barely talk or move or figure out

1933
01:07:31,310 --> 01:07:31,870
where he is.

1934
01:07:32,310 --> 01:07:33,610
Then let's make him president.

1935
01:07:33,790 --> 01:07:34,850
That's what we do.

1936
01:07:35,630 --> 01:07:37,110
What kind of thinking is that?

1937
01:07:37,390 --> 01:07:38,710
Go back to Face the Nation.

1938
01:07:38,930 --> 01:07:40,650
This is CBS with Margaret Brennan.

1939
01:07:41,130 --> 01:07:44,650
And this is Senator Chris Van Hollen with

1940
01:07:44,650 --> 01:07:46,470
a little extra detail on the details.

1941
01:07:46,870 --> 01:07:48,170
Yeah, Van Hollen is the guy, as you

1942
01:07:48,170 --> 01:07:49,870
recall, is the guy who went down and

1943
01:07:49,870 --> 01:07:52,410
met with the Maryland dad.

1944
01:07:52,650 --> 01:07:53,070
Yes.

1945
01:07:53,650 --> 01:07:56,530
Brega Garcia had margaritas at the cafe.

1946
01:07:57,210 --> 01:08:00,670
So Chevron, an American oil company, has been

1947
01:08:00,670 --> 01:08:03,430
operating in Venezuela throughout, and they told CBS

1948
01:08:03,430 --> 01:08:05,850
yesterday that they continue to work there.

1949
01:08:05,990 --> 01:08:08,030
My understanding is there are hundreds of Americans

1950
01:08:08,030 --> 01:08:10,310
working and living in Venezuela still.

1951
01:08:10,730 --> 01:08:11,710
This is true.

1952
01:08:11,950 --> 01:08:14,910
Chevron is the only company that continued to

1953
01:08:14,910 --> 01:08:16,069
hobble along.

1954
01:08:17,029 --> 01:08:19,229
Reportedly, there are at least four who have

1955
01:08:19,229 --> 01:08:22,350
been detained by the regime, the regime that

1956
01:08:22,350 --> 01:08:23,490
remains in power here.

1957
01:08:23,910 --> 01:08:25,630
You are on Senate Foreign Relations.

1958
01:08:25,750 --> 01:08:27,670
What do you know about the detained Americans?

1959
01:08:28,290 --> 01:08:30,649
What can you find out about how they're

1960
01:08:30,649 --> 01:08:30,890
doing?

1961
01:08:31,290 --> 01:08:34,029
I've not gotten an update from the administration

1962
01:08:34,029 --> 01:08:35,729
on those detained Americans.

1963
01:08:36,010 --> 01:08:39,029
Months ago, I did work to secure the

1964
01:08:39,029 --> 01:08:41,770
release of an American, a Marylander, who we

1965
01:08:41,770 --> 01:08:44,149
now have back in Baltimore, Maryland.

1966
01:08:44,149 --> 01:08:46,970
I think the administration is looking at those

1967
01:08:46,970 --> 01:08:50,850
detentions currently ongoing in Venezuela and determining how

1968
01:08:50,850 --> 01:08:52,710
many of them are wrongful detentions, how many

1969
01:08:52,710 --> 01:08:54,370
that they don't think are wrongful detentions.

1970
01:08:54,450 --> 01:08:56,689
But certainly my view is we should work

1971
01:08:56,689 --> 01:09:00,350
to bring back every American who is wrongfully

1972
01:09:00,350 --> 01:09:01,250
detained overseas.

1973
01:09:02,010 --> 01:09:04,830
I think this is going to complicate that

1974
01:09:04,830 --> 01:09:07,529
effort, what the Trump administration just did.

1975
01:09:07,870 --> 01:09:09,609
Oh, it's going to complicate it.

1976
01:09:09,689 --> 01:09:10,050
Okay.

1977
01:09:10,490 --> 01:09:12,330
How's it going to complicate it?

1978
01:09:12,330 --> 01:09:15,410
So now let's go to Rubio with Stephanopoulos.

1979
01:09:16,149 --> 01:09:17,090
Just a couple clips here.

1980
01:09:17,149 --> 01:09:17,950
It's all about the oil.

1981
01:09:18,090 --> 01:09:19,330
We're joined now by the Secretary of State,

1982
01:09:19,410 --> 01:09:20,010
Marco Rubio.

1983
01:09:20,090 --> 01:09:22,470
Mr. Secretary, thank you for joining us this

1984
01:09:22,470 --> 01:09:22,810
morning.

1985
01:09:23,109 --> 01:09:24,450
President Trump was pretty clear yesterday.

1986
01:09:24,630 --> 01:09:25,870
He said the United States is going to

1987
01:09:25,870 --> 01:09:26,569
run Venezuela.

1988
01:09:27,130 --> 01:09:28,510
Under what legal authority?

1989
01:09:31,990 --> 01:09:33,590
First of all, what's going to happen here

1990
01:09:33,590 --> 01:09:34,990
is that we have a quarantine on their

1991
01:09:34,990 --> 01:09:35,170
oil.

1992
01:09:35,290 --> 01:09:36,729
That means their economy will not be able

1993
01:09:36,729 --> 01:09:38,930
to move forward until the conditions that are

1994
01:09:38,930 --> 01:09:40,529
in the national interest of the United States

1995
01:09:40,529 --> 01:09:42,370
and the interest of the Venezuelan people are

1996
01:09:42,370 --> 01:09:44,069
met, and that's what we intend to do.

1997
01:09:44,069 --> 01:09:45,390
So that leverage remains.

1998
01:09:45,569 --> 01:09:48,029
That leverage is ongoing, and we expect that

1999
01:09:48,029 --> 01:09:49,430
it's going to lead to results here.

2000
01:09:49,529 --> 01:09:51,210
We're hopeful that it does.

2001
01:09:51,550 --> 01:09:53,550
Positive results for the people of Venezuela, but

2002
01:09:53,550 --> 01:09:56,270
ultimately, most importantly for us in the national

2003
01:09:56,270 --> 01:09:57,850
interest of the United States, we will no

2004
01:09:57,850 --> 01:10:00,550
longer have, hopefully, as we move forward here,

2005
01:10:00,790 --> 01:10:02,190
we'll set the conditions so that we no

2006
01:10:02,190 --> 01:10:04,530
longer have in our hemisphere a Venezuela that's

2007
01:10:04,530 --> 01:10:06,750
the crossroads for many of our adversaries around

2008
01:10:06,750 --> 01:10:09,130
the world, including Iran and Hezbollah, is no

2009
01:10:09,130 --> 01:10:11,290
longer sending us drug gangs, is no longer

2010
01:10:11,290 --> 01:10:13,470
sending us drug boats, is no longer a

2011
01:10:13,470 --> 01:10:15,990
narco-trafficking paradise for all those drugs coming

2012
01:10:15,990 --> 01:10:17,790
out of Colombia to go in through the

2013
01:10:17,790 --> 01:10:19,470
Caribbean and towards the United States.

2014
01:10:20,630 --> 01:10:22,270
And obviously, we want a better future for

2015
01:10:22,270 --> 01:10:23,110
the people of Venezuela.

2016
01:10:23,390 --> 01:10:24,770
We want them to have an oil industry

2017
01:10:24,770 --> 01:10:27,410
where the wealth goes to the people, not

2018
01:10:27,410 --> 01:10:30,050
to a handful of corrupt individuals and stolen

2019
01:10:30,050 --> 01:10:31,830
by pirates all over the world.

2020
01:10:32,410 --> 01:10:32,530
Pirates.

2021
01:10:32,530 --> 01:10:34,070
That's what we're working towards, and we intend

2022
01:10:34,070 --> 01:10:36,230
to use the leverage we have to help

2023
01:10:36,230 --> 01:10:36,770
achieve that.

2024
01:10:37,130 --> 01:10:38,610
George, ask him again.

2025
01:10:38,770 --> 01:10:40,270
Ask him who's running the place, man.

2026
01:10:40,330 --> 01:10:41,350
Let me ask the question again.

2027
01:10:41,350 --> 01:10:43,590
What is the legal authority for the United

2028
01:10:43,590 --> 01:10:44,750
States to be running Venezuela?

2029
01:10:46,790 --> 01:10:48,730
Well, I explained to you what our goals

2030
01:10:48,730 --> 01:10:49,770
are and how we're going to use the

2031
01:10:49,770 --> 01:10:50,730
leverage to make it happen.

2032
01:10:50,870 --> 01:10:52,370
As far as what our legal authority is

2033
01:10:52,370 --> 01:10:53,970
on the quarantine, I'm very simple.

2034
01:10:54,090 --> 01:10:54,890
We have court orders.

2035
01:10:55,270 --> 01:10:57,430
These are sanctioned boats, and we get orders

2036
01:10:57,430 --> 01:10:59,550
from courts to go after and seize these

2037
01:10:59,550 --> 01:10:59,870
sanctions.

2038
01:11:00,170 --> 01:11:01,570
So that's, I don't know, is a court

2039
01:11:01,570 --> 01:11:02,450
not a legal authority?

2040
01:11:03,170 --> 01:11:06,010
So is the United States running Venezuela right

2041
01:11:06,010 --> 01:11:06,330
now?

2042
01:11:08,350 --> 01:11:09,730
Well, I've explained once again.

2043
01:11:09,770 --> 01:11:10,650
I'll do it one more time.

2044
01:11:10,650 --> 01:11:12,990
What we are running is the direction that

2045
01:11:12,990 --> 01:11:14,670
this is going to move moving forward, and

2046
01:11:14,670 --> 01:11:15,870
that is we have leverage.

2047
01:11:16,270 --> 01:11:17,870
This leverage we are using and we intend

2048
01:11:17,870 --> 01:11:18,310
to use.

2049
01:11:18,390 --> 01:11:19,550
We started using already.

2050
01:11:19,850 --> 01:11:21,530
You can see where they are running out

2051
01:11:21,530 --> 01:11:22,430
of storage capacity.

2052
01:11:22,650 --> 01:11:24,270
In a few weeks, they're going to have

2053
01:11:24,270 --> 01:11:26,890
to start pumping oil unless they make changes.

2054
01:11:27,290 --> 01:11:28,770
And that leverage that we have with the

2055
01:11:28,770 --> 01:11:31,270
armada of boats that are currently positioned allow

2056
01:11:31,270 --> 01:11:34,050
us to seize any sanctioned boats coming into

2057
01:11:34,050 --> 01:11:37,190
or out of Venezuela loaded with oil or

2058
01:11:37,190 --> 01:11:38,450
on its way in to pick up oil,

2059
01:11:38,450 --> 01:11:39,970
and we can pick and choose which ones

2060
01:11:39,970 --> 01:11:40,550
we go after.

2061
01:11:40,810 --> 01:11:42,310
We have court orders for each one.

2062
01:11:42,470 --> 01:11:44,870
That will continue to be in place until

2063
01:11:44,870 --> 01:11:46,870
the people who have control over the levers

2064
01:11:46,870 --> 01:11:49,430
of power in that country make changes that

2065
01:11:49,430 --> 01:11:50,630
are not just in the interest of the

2066
01:11:50,630 --> 01:11:52,430
people of Venezuela, but are in the interest

2067
01:11:52,430 --> 01:11:54,110
of the United States and the things that

2068
01:11:54,110 --> 01:11:54,790
we care about.

2069
01:11:55,010 --> 01:11:55,250
George.

2070
01:11:55,890 --> 01:11:56,290
George.

2071
01:11:56,610 --> 01:11:57,010
Where?

2072
01:11:57,590 --> 01:11:57,990
George.

2073
01:11:58,110 --> 01:11:58,410
George.

2074
01:11:58,830 --> 01:11:59,590
Sorry, George.

2075
01:11:59,730 --> 01:12:00,590
I hit the wrong button.

2076
01:12:00,870 --> 01:12:02,270
You've got him on the ledge, man.

2077
01:12:02,330 --> 01:12:03,090
Ask him again.

2078
01:12:03,210 --> 01:12:04,170
Let me ask the question again.

2079
01:12:04,170 --> 01:12:06,430
What is the legal authority for the United

2080
01:12:06,430 --> 01:12:07,590
States to be running Venezuela?

2081
01:12:08,690 --> 01:12:09,330
Well done.

2082
01:12:09,890 --> 01:12:11,570
Well, I explained to you what our goals

2083
01:12:11,570 --> 01:12:12,590
are and how we're going to use the

2084
01:12:12,590 --> 01:12:13,570
leverage to make it happen.

2085
01:12:13,730 --> 01:12:15,190
As far as what our legal authority is

2086
01:12:15,190 --> 01:12:16,810
on the quarantine, I'm very simple.

2087
01:12:16,910 --> 01:12:17,710
We have court orders.

2088
01:12:18,090 --> 01:12:20,270
These are sanctioned boats, and we get orders

2089
01:12:20,270 --> 01:12:22,390
from courts to go after and seize these

2090
01:12:22,390 --> 01:12:22,710
sanctions.

2091
01:12:22,990 --> 01:12:23,430
So there's that.

2092
01:12:23,590 --> 01:12:24,010
I don't know.

2093
01:12:24,050 --> 01:12:25,310
Is a court not a legal authority?

2094
01:12:26,030 --> 01:12:28,850
So is the United States running Venezuela right

2095
01:12:28,850 --> 01:12:29,130
now?

2096
01:12:29,270 --> 01:12:30,230
I can't stand it.

2097
01:12:31,210 --> 01:12:32,570
Well, I've explained once again.

2098
01:12:32,610 --> 01:12:33,550
I'll do it one more time.

2099
01:12:33,550 --> 01:12:35,810
What we are running is the direction that

2100
01:12:35,810 --> 01:12:37,190
this is going to move moving forward.

2101
01:12:37,410 --> 01:12:38,730
And that is we have leverage.

2102
01:12:39,030 --> 01:12:40,710
This leverage we are using and we intend

2103
01:12:40,710 --> 01:12:41,130
to use.

2104
01:12:41,250 --> 01:12:42,370
We started using already.

2105
01:12:42,870 --> 01:12:44,350
You can see where they are running out

2106
01:12:44,350 --> 01:12:45,270
of storage capacity.

2107
01:12:45,550 --> 01:12:47,110
In a few weeks, they're going to have

2108
01:12:47,110 --> 01:12:49,730
to start pumping oil unless they make changes.

2109
01:12:50,170 --> 01:12:51,610
And that leverage that we have with the

2110
01:12:51,610 --> 01:12:54,070
armada of boats that are currently positioned allow

2111
01:12:54,070 --> 01:12:56,910
us to seize any sanctioned boats coming into

2112
01:12:56,910 --> 01:13:00,010
or out of Venezuela loaded with oil or

2113
01:13:00,010 --> 01:13:01,270
on its way in to pick up oil.

2114
01:13:01,270 --> 01:13:02,810
And we can pick and choose which ones

2115
01:13:02,810 --> 01:13:03,370
we go after.

2116
01:13:03,690 --> 01:13:05,150
We have court orders for each one.

2117
01:13:05,510 --> 01:13:07,710
That will continue to be in place until

2118
01:13:07,710 --> 01:13:09,690
the people who have control over the levers

2119
01:13:09,690 --> 01:13:12,250
of power in that country make changes that

2120
01:13:12,250 --> 01:13:13,450
are not just in the interest of the

2121
01:13:13,450 --> 01:13:15,290
people of Venezuela but are in the interest

2122
01:13:15,290 --> 01:13:16,930
of the United States and the things that

2123
01:13:16,930 --> 01:13:17,610
we care about.

2124
01:13:17,790 --> 01:13:20,690
This is going to be the number one

2125
01:13:20,690 --> 01:13:22,310
thing for the next two weeks.

2126
01:13:24,830 --> 01:13:26,470
I see it right now on the quad

2127
01:13:26,470 --> 01:13:26,810
box.

2128
01:13:26,910 --> 01:13:29,790
I see, oh, there's General Wesley Clark.

2129
01:13:29,790 --> 01:13:32,550
He says U.S. is running it, running

2130
01:13:32,550 --> 01:13:33,150
the policy.

2131
01:13:33,290 --> 01:13:33,890
Who's running it?

2132
01:13:33,950 --> 01:13:34,450
What are we running?

2133
01:13:34,550 --> 01:13:34,890
Who's running?

2134
01:13:34,970 --> 01:13:35,590
Who's got the ball?

2135
01:13:35,650 --> 01:13:36,190
Who's on first?

2136
01:13:36,450 --> 01:13:37,350
Who's running it?

2137
01:13:38,030 --> 01:13:40,110
Well, I think it's interesting that Rubio can

2138
01:13:40,110 --> 01:13:42,350
say the same exact thing almost word for

2139
01:13:42,350 --> 01:13:44,190
word three times in a row.

2140
01:13:44,430 --> 01:13:47,930
Yeah, thinking that Stephanopoulos will come up with

2141
01:13:47,930 --> 01:13:48,750
a better question.

2142
01:13:50,450 --> 01:13:52,190
And Stephanopoulos could not push it.

2143
01:13:52,490 --> 01:13:53,830
Well, you know, it's not just coming up

2144
01:13:53,830 --> 01:13:54,650
with a better question.

2145
01:13:54,830 --> 01:13:58,030
It's the way he, I don't know, it

2146
01:13:58,030 --> 01:13:59,010
was very poorly done.

2147
01:13:59,450 --> 01:14:02,110
Stephanopoulos is not that forceful an interviewer.

2148
01:14:03,090 --> 01:14:04,450
I mean, he can ask the same question

2149
01:14:04,450 --> 01:14:06,570
over and over and over, but he's just

2150
01:14:06,570 --> 01:14:08,290
lax about it.

2151
01:14:08,510 --> 01:14:09,630
You know, you have to do it.

2152
01:14:09,810 --> 01:14:11,130
You have to twist it a little bit

2153
01:14:11,130 --> 01:14:11,470
differently.

2154
01:14:11,590 --> 01:14:13,770
You got to find some angle because he's

2155
01:14:13,770 --> 01:14:16,070
going to get that same rote answer.

2156
01:14:16,350 --> 01:14:17,530
Very rote, by the way.

2157
01:14:17,530 --> 01:14:19,170
In fact, he walked off the set.

2158
01:14:19,230 --> 01:14:21,050
They went, you sure asked him, didn't you?

2159
01:14:21,850 --> 01:14:23,850
You know, the funny thing is, it's interesting

2160
01:14:23,850 --> 01:14:26,790
how Rubio is more the politician by a

2161
01:14:26,790 --> 01:14:28,570
long shot than Trump is.

2162
01:14:28,570 --> 01:14:32,030
Trump in that situation would have said, that's

2163
01:14:32,030 --> 01:14:33,350
a nasty question.

2164
01:14:33,570 --> 01:14:35,790
You're a nasty, nasty reporter.

2165
01:14:35,890 --> 01:14:36,310
You're fake news.

2166
01:14:36,650 --> 01:14:39,250
You're a horrible journalist.

2167
01:14:39,810 --> 01:14:40,450
You're horrible.

2168
01:14:40,690 --> 01:14:42,450
How did you even get this job?

2169
01:14:43,270 --> 01:14:44,430
That's what he would have done.

2170
01:14:44,490 --> 01:14:45,210
Last question.

2171
01:14:45,390 --> 01:14:47,610
Chevron is the only American company working in

2172
01:14:47,610 --> 01:14:48,550
Venezuela right now.

2173
01:14:48,570 --> 01:14:50,970
Only American oil company working in Venezuela right

2174
01:14:50,970 --> 01:14:51,250
now.

2175
01:14:51,390 --> 01:14:53,270
Have you gotten commitments from any other U

2176
01:14:53,270 --> 01:14:54,690
.S. oil companies to go in?

2177
01:14:55,830 --> 01:14:57,070
Well, good question, George.

2178
01:14:57,070 --> 01:14:58,930
I haven't spoken to U.S. oil companies

2179
01:14:58,930 --> 01:15:00,550
in the last few days.

2180
01:15:00,830 --> 01:15:02,250
But we're pretty certain that there will be

2181
01:15:02,250 --> 01:15:05,350
dramatic interest from Western companies, non-Russian, non

2182
01:15:05,350 --> 01:15:06,110
-Chinese companies.

2183
01:15:06,190 --> 01:15:07,050
We'll be very interested.

2184
01:15:07,770 --> 01:15:09,550
Our refineries in the Gulf Coast of the

2185
01:15:09,550 --> 01:15:11,530
United States are the best in terms of

2186
01:15:11,530 --> 01:15:12,630
refining this heavy crude.

2187
01:15:13,030 --> 01:15:14,650
And there's actually been a shortage of heavy

2188
01:15:14,650 --> 01:15:16,290
crude around the world.

2189
01:15:16,750 --> 01:15:18,690
So I think there will be tremendous demand

2190
01:15:18,690 --> 01:15:21,290
and interest from private industry if given the

2191
01:15:21,290 --> 01:15:22,950
space to do it, if given the opportunity

2192
01:15:22,950 --> 01:15:23,390
to do it.

2193
01:15:23,390 --> 01:15:25,630
And that will spin off tremendous royalties for

2194
01:15:25,630 --> 01:15:27,930
the people of Venezuela, to benefit the people

2195
01:15:27,930 --> 01:15:28,610
of that country.

2196
01:15:28,990 --> 01:15:30,910
Not the handful of people at the top,

2197
01:15:31,030 --> 01:15:31,530
but the people.

2198
01:15:32,090 --> 01:15:33,950
And, you know, that can happen.

2199
01:15:34,050 --> 01:15:34,590
There will be interest.

2200
01:15:34,730 --> 01:15:37,270
I haven't spoken to the companies since all

2201
01:15:37,270 --> 01:15:37,870
this has happened.

2202
01:15:38,110 --> 01:15:39,570
I'm certainly aware of who they are.

2203
01:15:40,130 --> 01:15:43,050
And I have spoken to Secretary Wright and

2204
01:15:43,050 --> 01:15:44,370
Secretary Burgum and others.

2205
01:15:45,070 --> 01:15:47,510
I know they'll soon be sort of taking

2206
01:15:47,510 --> 01:15:49,090
an assessment and speaking to some of these

2207
01:15:49,090 --> 01:15:49,350
companies.

2208
01:15:49,450 --> 01:15:51,110
But I don't have any concerns that there

2209
01:15:51,110 --> 01:15:51,730
won't be interest.

2210
01:15:51,830 --> 01:15:52,730
There will be tremendous interest.

2211
01:15:52,730 --> 01:15:54,270
If it can be done the right way.

2212
01:15:54,510 --> 01:15:55,770
These stupid Democrats.

2213
01:15:56,010 --> 01:15:58,970
Now I see on Ms. Now, Debbie Wasserman

2214
01:15:58,970 --> 01:15:59,510
Schultz.

2215
01:15:59,790 --> 01:16:02,230
Yes, we have an emergency call with the

2216
01:16:02,230 --> 01:16:03,610
leaders of the Democrat Party.

2217
01:16:03,770 --> 01:16:05,030
We're on this emergency call.

2218
01:16:05,650 --> 01:16:08,630
They're doing an emergency pod right now as

2219
01:16:08,630 --> 01:16:09,150
we speak.

2220
01:16:09,990 --> 01:16:11,790
I got some calls yesterday.

2221
01:16:12,470 --> 01:16:15,570
Hey, no agenda needs to do an emergency

2222
01:16:15,570 --> 01:16:16,490
pod, man.

2223
01:16:17,010 --> 01:16:17,510
No.

2224
01:16:18,530 --> 01:16:19,850
That'll be the day.

2225
01:16:22,490 --> 01:16:23,010
Wow.

2226
01:16:23,630 --> 01:16:24,710
Emergency pod.

2227
01:16:24,950 --> 01:16:25,210
Yeah.

2228
01:16:25,490 --> 01:16:29,050
And then the final clip is the president

2229
01:16:29,050 --> 01:16:30,170
was asked about Colombia.

2230
01:16:30,550 --> 01:16:33,430
And that was kind of a similar answer

2231
01:16:33,430 --> 01:16:33,950
to Cuba.

2232
01:16:34,310 --> 01:16:36,670
Colombian President Gustavo Petro, you know, a couple

2233
01:16:36,670 --> 01:16:37,770
weeks ago, he said he's got to watch

2234
01:16:37,770 --> 01:16:38,190
his ass.

2235
01:16:39,450 --> 01:16:41,250
And today he said he's not concerned about

2236
01:16:41,250 --> 01:16:42,950
anything happening to him in the aftermath of

2237
01:16:42,950 --> 01:16:43,470
this operation.

2238
01:16:43,470 --> 01:16:44,990
So just what your message is.

2239
01:16:45,130 --> 01:16:46,750
He has cocaine mills.

2240
01:16:46,750 --> 01:16:49,430
He has factories where he makes cocaine.

2241
01:16:50,170 --> 01:16:51,910
And, yeah, I think I stick by my

2242
01:16:51,910 --> 01:16:52,730
first statement.

2243
01:16:52,990 --> 01:16:54,070
He's making cocaine.

2244
01:16:54,330 --> 01:16:55,790
They're sending it into the United States.

2245
01:16:55,950 --> 01:16:57,670
So he does have to watch his ass.

2246
01:16:59,230 --> 01:17:00,110
Tough guy.

2247
01:17:00,390 --> 01:17:02,290
He's got to watch his ass, man.

2248
01:17:02,690 --> 01:17:05,450
But it's fascinating to see the media just,

2249
01:17:05,810 --> 01:17:06,990
you know, this is going to be their

2250
01:17:06,990 --> 01:17:07,990
next thing.

2251
01:17:08,550 --> 01:17:09,770
Oh, unconstitutional.

2252
01:17:09,970 --> 01:17:12,150
Oh, we didn't we didn't notify Congress.

2253
01:17:12,910 --> 01:17:14,370
All of this stuff.

2254
01:17:15,010 --> 01:17:17,430
And everything else falls by the wayside.

2255
01:17:18,150 --> 01:17:20,130
The Jews are no longer talked about.

2256
01:17:20,330 --> 01:17:21,950
Israel is no longer talked about.

2257
01:17:22,090 --> 01:17:23,710
Epstein no longer talked about.

2258
01:17:24,590 --> 01:17:27,490
It's just completely just like a tidal wave

2259
01:17:27,490 --> 01:17:28,270
over everything.

2260
01:17:30,150 --> 01:17:32,590
And again, I think the next I think

2261
01:17:32,590 --> 01:17:34,270
by Thursday we'll have to have a pretty

2262
01:17:34,270 --> 01:17:37,910
good idea of what their plan is in

2263
01:17:37,910 --> 01:17:42,490
order to to quell any any issues in

2264
01:17:42,490 --> 01:17:42,950
the region.

2265
01:17:43,230 --> 01:17:43,670
I don't think so.

2266
01:17:43,670 --> 01:17:44,670
You don't think so?

2267
01:17:45,790 --> 01:17:46,410
I don't think so.

2268
01:17:46,450 --> 01:17:47,750
I don't think they're going to get to

2269
01:17:47,750 --> 01:17:49,050
the to clarify.

2270
01:17:49,250 --> 01:17:50,430
I don't think it's going to be clarified

2271
01:17:50,430 --> 01:17:51,170
by Thursday.

2272
01:17:51,170 --> 01:17:51,790
I just don't.

2273
01:17:52,430 --> 01:17:54,310
I just see it as being a slow

2274
01:17:54,310 --> 01:17:55,570
moving process.

2275
01:17:57,490 --> 01:18:00,350
And I base that on Rubio mostly because

2276
01:18:00,350 --> 01:18:02,670
of his, you know, repetitious answers.

2277
01:18:02,830 --> 01:18:05,130
He's not giving us any insight whatsoever.

2278
01:18:05,610 --> 01:18:08,550
No, the misdirection of Cuba is bull crap.

2279
01:18:08,610 --> 01:18:10,030
We're not doing anything with Cuba.

2280
01:18:10,130 --> 01:18:11,010
Let's face it.

2281
01:18:11,050 --> 01:18:11,450
Why not?

2282
01:18:13,470 --> 01:18:15,010
Because what's our rationale?

2283
01:18:15,950 --> 01:18:18,190
The rationale with Maduro is that he was

2284
01:18:18,190 --> 01:18:19,610
under indictment.

2285
01:18:19,710 --> 01:18:22,430
And they're shipping drugs out of there, left

2286
01:18:22,430 --> 01:18:23,470
and right on these boats.

2287
01:18:23,530 --> 01:18:25,390
And we can take action.

2288
01:18:25,450 --> 01:18:26,370
What is Cuba doing?

2289
01:18:26,510 --> 01:18:27,910
So it's just a misdirection?

2290
01:18:28,950 --> 01:18:29,790
It has to be.

2291
01:18:30,470 --> 01:18:32,770
And you got Rubio who is Cuban.

2292
01:18:33,070 --> 01:18:34,650
So it makes it sound like he's a

2293
01:18:34,650 --> 01:18:35,190
tough guy.

2294
01:18:36,230 --> 01:18:38,690
I think the next target is either going

2295
01:18:38,690 --> 01:18:39,470
to be Mexico.

2296
01:18:39,470 --> 01:18:42,170
Mexico is the real target.

2297
01:18:42,270 --> 01:18:44,810
You want to misdirect from that because they

2298
01:18:44,810 --> 01:18:45,530
have issues.

2299
01:18:45,670 --> 01:18:47,390
They have more issues than Cuba.

2300
01:18:47,670 --> 01:18:49,010
They're right on our border.

2301
01:18:51,660 --> 01:18:53,780
We're not doing jack with Cuba.

2302
01:18:54,060 --> 01:18:54,520
And Alberta.

2303
01:18:54,820 --> 01:18:59,960
Alberta is going to be a ramp up

2304
01:18:59,960 --> 01:19:02,240
to October when they have the voting.

2305
01:19:02,920 --> 01:19:04,740
And it would be whether the Canadians, you

2306
01:19:04,740 --> 01:19:06,220
know, the Canadians can be talked out of

2307
01:19:06,220 --> 01:19:08,260
this because they're wishy-washy, generally speaking.

2308
01:19:08,260 --> 01:19:10,780
No offense to our Canadian listeners, but, you

2309
01:19:10,780 --> 01:19:12,220
know, you're kind of wishy-washy and you

2310
01:19:12,220 --> 01:19:12,940
complain a lot.

2311
01:19:13,140 --> 01:19:14,820
I got a note about Canada.

2312
01:19:15,060 --> 01:19:15,540
One second.

2313
01:19:16,100 --> 01:19:20,760
But the Canadians are, you know, they tend

2314
01:19:20,760 --> 01:19:23,880
to be up on current events.

2315
01:19:24,240 --> 01:19:27,660
And it's possible that they could vote to

2316
01:19:27,660 --> 01:19:29,380
be an independent country in Alberta.

2317
01:19:29,680 --> 01:19:31,320
It would be a shocker.

2318
01:19:31,400 --> 01:19:32,640
And the Canadians kind of like to be

2319
01:19:32,640 --> 01:19:34,160
or slight troublemakers.

2320
01:19:34,340 --> 01:19:35,720
And this would be like a perfect example

2321
01:19:35,720 --> 01:19:36,520
of doing it right.

2322
01:19:37,680 --> 01:19:40,320
Canadian Tim, I think he's Canadian, checked in.

2323
01:19:41,060 --> 01:19:43,240
He said on the last episode, John had

2324
01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:45,220
an aside where you're talking about open AI

2325
01:19:45,220 --> 01:19:49,200
hiring in a role that admits liability, just

2326
01:19:49,200 --> 01:19:51,320
like how you should never apologize when you're

2327
01:19:51,320 --> 01:19:54,200
in a car accident, which it was a

2328
01:19:54,200 --> 01:19:54,920
valid point.

2329
01:19:55,700 --> 01:19:57,700
And he says, well, this will sound like

2330
01:19:57,700 --> 01:19:58,800
a joke, but it's not.

2331
01:19:58,940 --> 01:20:02,160
In Canada, because everyone is so apologetic, we

2332
01:20:02,160 --> 01:20:04,180
actually have laws on the books that state

2333
01:20:04,180 --> 01:20:07,660
explicitly that an apology is not an admission

2334
01:20:07,660 --> 01:20:08,520
of liability.

2335
01:20:09,240 --> 01:20:14,560
And he links to the statute S09003, effect

2336
01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:16,180
of apology on liability.

2337
01:20:17,220 --> 01:20:19,280
An apology made by or on behalf of

2338
01:20:19,280 --> 01:20:22,020
a person in connection with any matter does

2339
01:20:22,020 --> 01:20:25,000
not in law constitute an express or implied

2340
01:20:25,000 --> 01:20:27,320
admission of fault or liability by the person

2341
01:20:27,320 --> 01:20:29,680
in connection with the matter and does not,

2342
01:20:29,680 --> 01:20:31,980
despite any wording to the contrary in any

2343
01:20:31,980 --> 01:20:35,300
contract of insurance or indemnity and despite any

2344
01:20:35,300 --> 01:20:39,100
other actor law void, impair or otherwise affect

2345
01:20:39,100 --> 01:20:41,860
any insurance or indemnity coverage for any person

2346
01:20:41,860 --> 01:20:44,140
in connection with the matter and shall not

2347
01:20:44,140 --> 01:20:46,520
be taken into account in any determination of

2348
01:20:46,520 --> 01:20:48,980
fault or liability in connection with that matter.

2349
01:20:49,700 --> 01:20:50,900
Well, about those Canadians.

2350
01:20:51,500 --> 01:20:52,940
It's very Canadian.

2351
01:20:53,120 --> 01:20:53,560
Yes.

2352
01:20:53,800 --> 01:20:54,860
I thought so too.

2353
01:20:55,460 --> 01:20:56,500
Like, well, that's interesting.

2354
01:20:57,040 --> 01:20:57,440
Yeah.

2355
01:20:57,660 --> 01:20:58,960
It wouldn't be a bad law to have

2356
01:20:58,960 --> 01:21:01,320
here because people do like to apologize for

2357
01:21:01,320 --> 01:21:02,140
getting into wrecks.

2358
01:21:02,640 --> 01:21:04,380
But if you do it, you're asking for

2359
01:21:04,380 --> 01:21:05,700
trouble in the United States.

2360
01:21:05,920 --> 01:21:07,000
It's an admission of guilt.

2361
01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:08,800
Why did you apologize, sir?

2362
01:21:09,220 --> 01:21:10,580
You knew you did wrong.

2363
01:21:10,720 --> 01:21:11,900
That's why you apologize, right?

2364
01:21:11,940 --> 01:21:13,520
You just don't apologize for everything.

2365
01:21:13,660 --> 01:21:16,720
You don't apologize for somebody punching you in

2366
01:21:16,720 --> 01:21:17,900
the mouth when they punch you in the

2367
01:21:17,900 --> 01:21:18,080
mouth.

2368
01:21:18,140 --> 01:21:18,880
Do you say, I'm sorry?

2369
01:21:20,680 --> 01:21:21,080
Yeah.

2370
01:21:21,280 --> 01:21:23,220
Well, the Canadians, they're on it.

2371
01:21:24,240 --> 01:21:28,000
I got a distressing note from Bill, Strokey

2372
01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:30,260
Bill Walsh's longtime friend, Stephen.

2373
01:21:31,520 --> 01:21:33,620
He said, well, he sent me a note

2374
01:21:33,620 --> 01:21:34,080
out of the blue.

2375
01:21:34,160 --> 01:21:35,320
He said, I'm pretty sure it was your

2376
01:21:35,320 --> 01:21:37,380
show that Bill was always raving about, if

2377
01:21:37,380 --> 01:21:38,140
I'm not mistaken.

2378
01:21:38,500 --> 01:21:39,940
Do you remember Strokey Bill?

2379
01:21:40,800 --> 01:21:42,740
No, I do not remember Strokey Bill.

2380
01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:43,880
Well, you do.

2381
01:21:44,400 --> 01:21:47,760
He did several best of shows, and he

2382
01:21:47,760 --> 01:21:51,060
would always send long emails about how we

2383
01:21:51,060 --> 01:21:54,340
were stupid, and XRP is great, and all

2384
01:21:54,340 --> 01:21:54,880
this stuff.

2385
01:21:55,240 --> 01:21:56,660
Oh, he's the XRP guy.

2386
01:21:56,860 --> 01:21:57,680
Yeah, he was.

2387
01:21:58,440 --> 01:22:00,640
He passed away December 19th.

2388
01:22:01,140 --> 01:22:03,060
Yeah, and he said, your show really had

2389
01:22:03,060 --> 01:22:05,240
an impact on Bill, and he loved listening

2390
01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:05,860
to you.

2391
01:22:06,740 --> 01:22:10,040
And this, for me, because I had a

2392
01:22:10,040 --> 01:22:13,220
very kind of, I'll say, hate-love relationship

2393
01:22:13,220 --> 01:22:15,160
with Strokey Bill, because I thought he was

2394
01:22:15,160 --> 01:22:16,500
a douche most of the time.

2395
01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:19,280
But it reminded me that the people who

2396
01:22:19,280 --> 01:22:21,180
are the douchiest are actually the ones that

2397
01:22:21,180 --> 01:22:22,160
love us the most.

2398
01:22:23,560 --> 01:22:26,300
Yes, and I'm taking that into account.

2399
01:22:26,980 --> 01:22:28,880
Yeah, I think there's some truth to that.

2400
01:22:29,020 --> 01:22:30,200
Yeah, so we're sorry.

2401
01:22:30,360 --> 01:22:31,880
And I prayed for him, and I hope

2402
01:22:31,880 --> 01:22:33,900
he's in Jesus' arms, and he's in a

2403
01:22:33,900 --> 01:22:34,540
better place.

2404
01:22:35,100 --> 01:22:36,760
And I know he had a wife, and

2405
01:22:36,760 --> 01:22:38,060
I don't know if he had kids, but

2406
01:22:38,060 --> 01:22:41,480
I feel sad that we lost Strokey Bill.

2407
01:22:43,440 --> 01:22:47,280
So I have a clip that I moved

2408
01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:48,160
from the last show.

2409
01:22:48,280 --> 01:22:49,740
This is a New Year celebration.

2410
01:22:49,740 --> 01:22:52,040
This is kind of a roundup of different

2411
01:22:52,040 --> 01:22:53,740
parts of the world and what they were

2412
01:22:53,740 --> 01:22:54,800
up to and this and that.

2413
01:22:55,280 --> 01:22:56,980
And there was a little tidbit in this

2414
01:22:56,980 --> 01:23:00,100
thing, and I thought it would be worth

2415
01:23:00,100 --> 01:23:02,940
playing, because I would like an explanation for

2416
01:23:02,940 --> 01:23:04,620
it when it's finished.

2417
01:23:05,040 --> 01:23:07,580
Light shows, fireworks, and cultural traditions.

2418
01:23:08,140 --> 01:23:10,120
From the South Pacific to the East Asia,

2419
01:23:10,580 --> 01:23:12,180
celebrations are lighting up the night.

2420
01:23:12,740 --> 01:23:14,880
NTD's Christina Corona brings us some highlights.

2421
01:23:14,880 --> 01:23:16,880
The New Year began in the South Pacific,

2422
01:23:17,140 --> 01:23:19,360
the first to say goodbye to 2025.

2423
01:23:19,900 --> 01:23:23,640
Sydney, Australia kicked off 2026 with fireworks sparkling

2424
01:23:23,640 --> 01:23:25,340
over the city's landmarks.

2425
01:23:25,460 --> 01:23:28,180
An hour before midnight, the celebration paused for

2426
01:23:28,180 --> 01:23:30,440
a moment of silence honoring the victims of

2427
01:23:30,440 --> 01:23:32,200
the recent Bondi Beach attack.

2428
01:23:32,360 --> 01:23:35,680
In Taiwan, thousands gathered at Taipei 101 for

2429
01:23:35,680 --> 01:23:39,120
a six-minute fireworks display synchronized with music

2430
01:23:39,120 --> 01:23:40,240
and a light show.

2431
01:23:40,240 --> 01:23:43,480
Over in Hong Kong, fireworks over Victoria Harbor

2432
01:23:43,480 --> 01:23:45,480
were replaced with a light show in the

2433
01:23:45,480 --> 01:23:46,300
Central District.

2434
01:23:46,620 --> 01:23:49,840
Officials replaced fireworks after a deadly November fire,

2435
01:23:50,100 --> 01:23:52,920
turning eight buildings into countdown clocks for a

2436
01:23:52,920 --> 01:23:56,000
three-minute show themed New Hopes, New Beginnings.

2437
01:23:56,160 --> 01:23:58,760
In South Korea, more than 10,000 people

2438
01:23:58,760 --> 01:24:01,820
gathered at Seoul's Bosingak Pavilion for the annual

2439
01:24:01,820 --> 01:24:05,520
bell-tolling ceremony, with civic representatives striking the

2440
01:24:05,520 --> 01:24:07,420
bronze bell 33 times.

2441
01:24:07,420 --> 01:24:08,000
Whoa!

2442
01:24:09,120 --> 01:24:09,760
What?

2443
01:24:10,680 --> 01:24:11,320
Whoa.

2444
01:24:12,500 --> 01:24:13,720
What's that about?

2445
01:24:14,600 --> 01:24:16,220
Yeah, and that's in Korea.

2446
01:24:16,600 --> 01:24:17,060
Hmm.

2447
01:24:18,780 --> 01:24:19,360
Yeah.

2448
01:24:19,680 --> 01:24:21,060
Well, I'd like to know what that's about.

2449
01:24:21,220 --> 01:24:23,200
I would like a Korean to explain to

2450
01:24:23,200 --> 01:24:27,500
me what the significance of 33 in Korea

2451
01:24:27,500 --> 01:24:28,080
is.

2452
01:24:28,300 --> 01:24:30,820
And please don't send us emails telling us

2453
01:24:30,820 --> 01:24:33,800
your discovered theory about 33.

2454
01:24:33,940 --> 01:24:34,640
We've heard them all.

2455
01:24:35,280 --> 01:24:36,040
They're all different.

2456
01:24:36,040 --> 01:24:36,540
We have.

2457
01:24:36,740 --> 01:24:37,480
They're all different.

2458
01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:38,100
Yeah.

2459
01:24:38,880 --> 01:24:40,520
Every single one of them is different.

2460
01:24:41,820 --> 01:24:42,020
Yeah.

2461
01:24:42,140 --> 01:24:43,180
Wow, that is interesting.

2462
01:24:44,040 --> 01:24:45,480
I have no idea what that's about.

2463
01:24:46,620 --> 01:24:48,320
Of course, end of the year, so lots

2464
01:24:48,320 --> 01:24:49,740
of lists are coming out.

2465
01:24:50,540 --> 01:24:52,300
This one popped up on the radar.

2466
01:24:53,220 --> 01:24:56,540
Words and phrases we should no longer use.

2467
01:24:57,600 --> 01:24:58,080
Yeah.

2468
01:24:58,440 --> 01:24:59,780
You'll like some of these.

2469
01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:02,560
Every year, Lake Superior State University in Michigan

2470
01:25:02,560 --> 01:25:04,700
puts together a tongue-in-cheek roundup of

2471
01:25:04,700 --> 01:25:05,880
overused slang.

2472
01:25:06,060 --> 01:25:07,560
This one really hits the nail on the

2473
01:25:07,560 --> 01:25:07,740
head.

2474
01:25:07,820 --> 01:25:10,100
The viral 6-7 tops the list.

2475
01:25:10,260 --> 01:25:12,660
The term demure came in second, followed by

2476
01:25:12,660 --> 01:25:17,780
cooked, massive, incentivize, full stop, perfect, and gift

2477
01:25:17,780 --> 01:25:18,480
or gifted.

2478
01:25:19,020 --> 01:25:21,560
Rounding out the top ten are my bad

2479
01:25:21,560 --> 01:25:24,220
and reach out, which also made the list

2480
01:25:24,220 --> 01:25:24,880
in the 90s.

2481
01:25:24,920 --> 01:25:25,460
I'm going to tell you what.

2482
01:25:25,760 --> 01:25:27,580
If you say my bad instead of I

2483
01:25:27,580 --> 01:25:30,200
apologize or I'm sorry, it doesn't count.

2484
01:25:30,600 --> 01:25:30,800
Yeah.

2485
01:25:31,140 --> 01:25:31,620
Agreed.

2486
01:25:31,620 --> 01:25:33,660
You've always had a problem with my bad.

2487
01:25:34,960 --> 01:25:36,820
Yeah, it's grammatically stupid.

2488
01:25:38,580 --> 01:25:39,100
Yeah.

2489
01:25:39,240 --> 01:25:41,580
I like full stop, which is also Tucker's

2490
01:25:41,580 --> 01:25:42,080
period.

2491
01:25:43,040 --> 01:25:45,040
I don't think that can be done anytime,

2492
01:25:45,220 --> 01:25:46,320
period, period.

2493
01:25:46,900 --> 01:25:48,020
We just can't do that.

2494
01:25:49,780 --> 01:25:52,220
Yeah, I've always been annoyed by full stop.

2495
01:25:52,580 --> 01:25:52,740
Yeah.

2496
01:25:52,940 --> 01:25:54,640
Why would you throw, you're talking to somebody

2497
01:25:54,640 --> 01:25:55,480
and say full stop.

2498
01:25:55,860 --> 01:25:56,160
What?

2499
01:25:57,820 --> 01:25:58,660
Full stop.

2500
01:25:58,780 --> 01:25:59,000
Yes.

2501
01:25:59,100 --> 01:25:59,640
Full stop.

2502
01:26:03,160 --> 01:26:05,480
I pointed this out on the last episode.

2503
01:26:05,800 --> 01:26:07,780
France is now doing something about it.

2504
01:26:07,840 --> 01:26:08,320
It's horrible.

2505
01:26:08,780 --> 01:26:10,880
When she posted her holiday outfit on X,

2506
01:26:11,100 --> 01:26:12,980
this young woman did not think that she

2507
01:26:12,980 --> 01:26:15,240
would end up naked on the internet for

2508
01:26:15,240 --> 01:26:16,120
the past few days.

2509
01:26:16,420 --> 01:26:17,620
You just have been asking Grok.

2510
01:26:17,960 --> 01:26:18,460
I sent you.

2511
01:26:18,520 --> 01:26:19,520
Did you get any of that in your

2512
01:26:19,520 --> 01:26:19,820
time?

2513
01:26:19,860 --> 01:26:21,260
Yeah, you sent me a couple of these.

2514
01:26:21,260 --> 01:26:26,140
The funny thing is the number of fat

2515
01:26:26,140 --> 01:26:28,900
JD things I've been getting is up to

2516
01:26:28,900 --> 01:26:29,860
like 10 a day.

2517
01:26:30,480 --> 01:26:30,580
Yeah.

2518
01:26:30,680 --> 01:26:32,620
And I still have yet to get into

2519
01:26:32,620 --> 01:26:34,940
the groove to get any of the bikini

2520
01:26:34,940 --> 01:26:36,700
things, except the ones you sent me.

2521
01:26:36,900 --> 01:26:39,400
Oh, well, that's interesting because of course, you

2522
01:26:39,400 --> 01:26:41,200
got to click on them to see all

2523
01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:41,700
the variations.

2524
01:26:41,700 --> 01:26:42,800
No, I clicked on it, but I didn't

2525
01:26:42,800 --> 01:26:43,020
click.

2526
01:26:43,300 --> 01:26:45,200
You have to click a lot, but once

2527
01:26:45,200 --> 01:26:46,380
you get on the groove and the fat

2528
01:26:46,380 --> 01:26:48,680
JD stuff where he's dancing and he's playing

2529
01:26:48,680 --> 01:26:51,240
the guitar, he's doing solos.

2530
01:26:51,240 --> 01:26:54,420
He's sending people on, on tampon rockets.

2531
01:26:54,560 --> 01:26:56,440
Hey, we can, we can do a combo.

2532
01:26:56,900 --> 01:26:59,000
Can't we say put fat JD in a

2533
01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:00,480
bikini Grok?

2534
01:27:01,720 --> 01:27:02,280
Wow.

2535
01:27:02,320 --> 01:27:02,960
That's a good idea.

2536
01:27:03,140 --> 01:27:05,320
I think that's the combo that should be

2537
01:27:05,320 --> 01:27:05,620
next.

2538
01:27:05,680 --> 01:27:08,240
X's generative AI chat bot to undress women

2539
01:27:08,240 --> 01:27:10,480
and sometimes even minors without their consent.

2540
01:27:11,080 --> 01:27:13,820
For Marion, this was a violation of privacy.

2541
01:27:14,900 --> 01:27:17,000
It's really upsetting to see this.

2542
01:27:17,380 --> 01:27:19,480
You wonder why would anyone do that?

2543
01:27:19,480 --> 01:27:21,520
When do you decide to do that to

2544
01:27:21,520 --> 01:27:21,840
people?

2545
01:27:21,960 --> 01:27:23,600
You don't even know on social media.

2546
01:27:24,040 --> 01:27:26,380
I think there have been about 30 cases.

2547
01:27:26,560 --> 01:27:30,160
By the way, she posts a very seductive

2548
01:27:30,160 --> 01:27:33,940
picture of herself on social media by itself.

2549
01:27:34,040 --> 01:27:34,960
A dumb idea.

2550
01:27:35,120 --> 01:27:36,160
Why are you doing that?

2551
01:27:36,460 --> 01:27:36,760
Why?

2552
01:27:37,460 --> 01:27:38,300
What is the point?

2553
01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:40,200
I'm sounding like you now.

2554
01:27:40,620 --> 01:27:41,320
What is the point?

2555
01:27:41,420 --> 01:27:43,320
Why are you putting these pictures on social

2556
01:27:43,320 --> 01:27:43,540
media?

2557
01:27:51,200 --> 01:27:52,200
I look hot.

2558
01:27:52,480 --> 01:27:54,300
I mean, here's a picture of me with

2559
01:27:54,300 --> 01:27:55,100
my new hair.

2560
01:27:55,200 --> 01:27:57,020
Here's a picture of lipstick on.

2561
01:27:57,060 --> 01:27:58,680
Here's a picture of me standing there.

2562
01:27:59,020 --> 01:28:00,800
Here's a picture of me and my dog.

2563
01:28:00,840 --> 01:28:02,100
Here's a picture of me and my cat.

2564
01:28:02,160 --> 01:28:03,620
Here's a picture of me, me, me, me.

2565
01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:05,660
Look at me and my boyfriend.

2566
01:28:05,900 --> 01:28:06,900
Don't we look beautiful?

2567
01:28:07,440 --> 01:28:07,760
Wow.

2568
01:28:07,860 --> 01:28:08,620
Not your life.

2569
01:28:08,680 --> 01:28:08,940
Wow.

2570
01:28:09,020 --> 01:28:09,480
Look at this.

2571
01:28:09,520 --> 01:28:10,920
Look at the fireworks in the background.

2572
01:28:11,100 --> 01:28:12,080
Oh, we're eating caviar.

2573
01:28:12,240 --> 01:28:14,520
Oh, we're so awesome it's fabulous our life

2574
01:28:14,520 --> 01:28:18,160
is great this is what you get it

2575
01:28:18,160 --> 01:28:20,380
hurts to see yourself like that it's not

2576
01:28:20,380 --> 01:28:22,560
my body but it looks similar and then

2577
01:28:22,560 --> 01:28:26,440
people can reuse the image anywhere she reported

2578
01:28:26,440 --> 01:28:28,500
it to the platform but some images of

2579
01:28:28,500 --> 01:28:31,760
her naked are still online instances of free

2580
01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:33,780
and accessible AI that are stripping women and

2581
01:28:33,780 --> 01:28:35,740
men of their clothing are on the rise

2582
01:28:35,740 --> 01:28:38,240
here a user asks the chatbot to put

2583
01:28:38,240 --> 01:28:40,720
this young woman in a bikini victims have

2584
01:28:40,720 --> 01:28:43,480
been advised to report illegal content on the

2585
01:28:43,480 --> 01:28:45,900
platform as well as to authorities this is

2586
01:28:45,900 --> 01:28:49,460
interesting because Elon Musk is now posting anyone

2587
01:28:49,460 --> 01:28:52,300
who puts up illegal content will be banned

2588
01:28:52,300 --> 01:28:54,620
and con and the authorities will be contacted

2589
01:28:54,620 --> 01:28:57,020
and everyone's like well what is illegal content

2590
01:28:57,020 --> 01:29:01,180
what exactly is illegal content could you please

2591
01:29:01,180 --> 01:29:03,560
codify that for us which is as far

2592
01:29:03,560 --> 01:29:05,220
as I know has not done for a

2593
01:29:05,220 --> 01:29:08,280
party can't of course not ministers and members

2594
01:29:08,280 --> 01:29:11,900
of Parliament have also reacted outraged by requests

2595
01:29:11,900 --> 01:29:14,520
made to grok AI to strip girls and

2596
01:29:14,520 --> 01:29:18,300
women while the image is artificial the harm

2597
01:29:18,300 --> 01:29:21,820
is very real the courts must examine excess

2598
01:29:21,820 --> 01:29:24,580
criminal liability this is something new because there

2599
01:29:24,580 --> 01:29:26,880
is no jurisprudence in France on this issue

2600
01:29:26,880 --> 01:29:29,320
yet so it's excellent that the courts are

2601
01:29:29,320 --> 01:29:31,800
taking up the case another victim has launched

2602
01:29:31,800 --> 01:29:34,380
an online petition calling for greater regulation of

2603
01:29:34,380 --> 01:29:37,640
generative AI the US Federal Communications Commission did

2604
01:29:37,640 --> 01:29:40,360
not immediately respond for comment while the Federal

2605
01:29:40,360 --> 01:29:43,260
Trade Commission declined to comment for its part

2606
01:29:43,260 --> 01:29:47,480
an X AI representative responded legacy media lies

2607
01:29:47,480 --> 01:29:54,120
legacy media lies man this is modern media

2608
01:29:54,120 --> 01:29:57,120
she should say we ever lie she should

2609
01:29:57,120 --> 01:30:00,040
say this thing sucks I'm much hotter than

2610
01:30:00,040 --> 01:30:04,840
that in a bikini but no no it's

2611
01:30:04,840 --> 01:30:08,480
it is so rampant I'm surprised it hasn't

2612
01:30:08,480 --> 01:30:10,600
really shown up to your timeline no it

2613
01:30:10,600 --> 01:30:12,880
does not show up in my feeds at

2614
01:30:12,880 --> 01:30:19,580
all yet hmm that's but I'm getting a

2615
01:30:19,580 --> 01:30:23,120
lot more besides the debt the JD Vance

2616
01:30:23,120 --> 01:30:26,420
doing all kinds of moves I'm getting a

2617
01:30:26,420 --> 01:30:32,080
lot of pretty obscure AI movies you know

2618
01:30:32,080 --> 01:30:35,320
all kinds of just poorly done some of

2619
01:30:35,320 --> 01:30:38,360
them yeah Trump shooting up the place well

2620
01:30:38,360 --> 01:30:42,340
worth the 1.3 trillion dollars I see

2621
01:30:42,340 --> 01:30:46,800
more and more now that local municipalities and

2622
01:30:46,800 --> 01:30:50,460
city councils are blocking data centers left and

2623
01:30:50,460 --> 01:30:54,720
right it's become quite a thing that even

2624
01:30:54,720 --> 01:30:57,820
Microsoft is now kind of saying well you

2625
01:30:57,820 --> 01:31:00,320
know yeah the rollouts a little harder there's

2626
01:31:00,320 --> 01:31:03,300
we have about 20 cases people don't want

2627
01:31:03,300 --> 01:31:05,220
it they don't want these data centers near

2628
01:31:05,220 --> 01:31:06,680
them any no in fact the one that

2629
01:31:06,680 --> 01:31:11,180
they're building the fusion reactor they're building in

2630
01:31:11,180 --> 01:31:14,580
Washington State Microsoft which is not going to

2631
01:31:14,580 --> 01:31:20,680
work which is going to actually be a

2632
01:31:20,680 --> 01:31:23,240
negative number when they're done getting it when

2633
01:31:23,240 --> 01:31:27,340
they've if they even started it's got to

2634
01:31:27,340 --> 01:31:31,680
be a fiasco I got a note from

2635
01:31:31,680 --> 01:31:35,820
J confusion on fusion then I will read

2636
01:31:35,820 --> 01:31:37,480
it and then you can respond since I

2637
01:31:37,480 --> 01:31:39,560
don't know anything about this other than the

2638
01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:41,660
videos that I've seen that show it's all

2639
01:31:41,660 --> 01:31:44,900
gonna work oh yeah videos are great I've

2640
01:31:44,900 --> 01:31:47,300
been working on promoting fusion energy for years

2641
01:31:47,300 --> 01:31:49,140
now and have tried to help your confusion

2642
01:31:49,140 --> 01:31:54,120
in the past yes tritium and deuterium fused

2643
01:31:54,120 --> 01:31:58,360
the deuterium is easy the tritium requires refinement

2644
01:31:58,360 --> 01:32:00,480
or processing like pulling it out of the

2645
01:32:00,480 --> 01:32:03,680
heavy water at Hanford for example or processing

2646
01:32:03,680 --> 01:32:06,680
lithium to get tritium the main thing you

2647
01:32:06,680 --> 01:32:09,120
are missing is the two different types of

2648
01:32:09,120 --> 01:32:13,120
fusion reactors the tokamak design is most popular

2649
01:32:13,120 --> 01:32:15,980
in Europe and the US it uses magnets

2650
01:32:15,980 --> 01:32:19,260
in a theoretical containment system is much smaller

2651
01:32:19,260 --> 01:32:22,320
in scale think one tokamak reactor for one

2652
01:32:22,320 --> 01:32:26,040
data center the fusion reactor technology proven out

2653
01:32:26,040 --> 01:32:28,620
by Lawrence Livermore labs and now merged with

2654
01:32:28,620 --> 01:32:34,660
Trump's TAE through TAE uses giant laser systems

2655
01:32:34,660 --> 01:32:37,800
the containment system for an industrial size scale

2656
01:32:37,800 --> 01:32:40,820
reactor is the last leap required think of

2657
01:32:40,820 --> 01:32:43,260
these fusion reactors for an entire region of

2658
01:32:43,260 --> 01:32:45,180
the country I have met with the head

2659
01:32:45,180 --> 01:32:48,380
of Princeton fusion labs professor Cowley to prove

2660
01:32:48,380 --> 01:32:52,680
out the Berner BOER NER Berner fusion future

2661
01:32:52,680 --> 01:32:54,620
plan for the nation that's the guy I

2662
01:32:54,620 --> 01:32:57,140
ran for president the inside word is I

2663
01:32:57,140 --> 01:32:58,700
have not been able to verify is that

2664
01:32:58,700 --> 01:33:01,140
the MIT plasma scientist was working on a

2665
01:33:01,140 --> 01:33:03,540
containment solution I was pissed when I heard

2666
01:33:03,540 --> 01:33:05,820
about the Trump merger because it privatizes the

2667
01:33:05,820 --> 01:33:08,160
effort instead of using the US Department of

2668
01:33:08,160 --> 01:33:10,380
Energy so that the American citizens own it

2669
01:33:10,380 --> 01:33:12,960
this technology can take the US from a

2670
01:33:12,960 --> 01:33:16,180
superpower to a hyper nation and eat the

2671
01:33:16,180 --> 01:33:19,260
horrendous inflation we've had the Berner plane was

2672
01:33:19,260 --> 01:33:22,000
plan was amazing you were contacted early in

2673
01:33:22,000 --> 01:33:24,260
the effort which was several years ago well

2674
01:33:24,260 --> 01:33:25,920
the good before you react the good news

2675
01:33:25,920 --> 01:33:29,820
is my buddy works now at the Department

2676
01:33:29,820 --> 01:33:32,220
of Energy in Colorado and I'm going to

2677
01:33:32,220 --> 01:33:34,240
ask him and he will give me as

2678
01:33:34,240 --> 01:33:36,640
much as he can now your take on

2679
01:33:36,640 --> 01:33:39,940
these different systems I don't have it take

2680
01:33:39,940 --> 01:33:41,860
on the different systems there are different systems

2681
01:33:41,860 --> 01:33:44,180
they were they're all claimed to work and

2682
01:33:44,180 --> 01:33:46,480
I've seen no evidence of it well that's

2683
01:33:46,480 --> 01:33:48,540
all I can say is that this is

2684
01:33:48,540 --> 01:33:50,920
like a great idea I mean I would

2685
01:33:50,920 --> 01:33:53,360
be terrific if they get fusion to work

2686
01:33:53,360 --> 01:33:57,600
in other words take less energy to make

2687
01:33:57,600 --> 01:33:59,620
it start up as opposed to how much

2688
01:33:59,620 --> 01:34:01,960
right now the problem is it takes more

2689
01:34:01,960 --> 01:34:04,380
energy to it's like it takes twice as

2690
01:34:04,380 --> 01:34:05,720
well not twice as much but it just

2691
01:34:05,720 --> 01:34:08,800
takes even a fraction more energy to produce

2692
01:34:08,800 --> 01:34:10,880
less energy so you spend a bunch of

2693
01:34:10,880 --> 01:34:12,900
energy to get less energy but you keep

2694
01:34:12,900 --> 01:34:15,620
saying you can do that but you keep

2695
01:34:15,620 --> 01:34:18,440
saying the startup so once it started once

2696
01:34:18,440 --> 01:34:20,700
it's running no it no it's a continuous

2697
01:34:20,700 --> 01:34:24,080
well that makes no sense so you have

2698
01:34:24,080 --> 01:34:27,060
to use that let's say 1.1 X

2699
01:34:27,060 --> 01:34:30,420
to get 1.0 out and yeah you

2700
01:34:30,420 --> 01:34:32,720
can take that 1.0 out and recycle

2701
01:34:32,720 --> 01:34:34,420
it and put it back into the to

2702
01:34:34,420 --> 01:34:37,040
the making the making the containments feel work

2703
01:34:37,040 --> 01:34:39,740
or whatever energy you need but it's you're

2704
01:34:39,740 --> 01:34:41,960
still now you're your down point one no

2705
01:34:41,960 --> 01:34:45,280
it there's no effort unless somebody shows me

2706
01:34:45,280 --> 01:34:48,400
some documents I've never seen one that shows

2707
01:34:48,400 --> 01:34:50,140
that it takes less energy if you can

2708
01:34:50,140 --> 01:34:51,600
put in just like a half amount of

2709
01:34:51,600 --> 01:34:53,420
energy then you get twice as much out

2710
01:34:53,420 --> 01:34:56,680
you know fine this is you know for

2711
01:34:56,680 --> 01:34:59,960
me this is the flying car thing people

2712
01:34:59,960 --> 01:35:02,520
keep sending me videos look it's a flying

2713
01:35:02,520 --> 01:35:04,940
car it's here and I'm like no it's

2714
01:35:04,940 --> 01:35:09,100
not no it's not you go to the

2715
01:35:09,100 --> 01:35:12,500
website it will fly for 35 minutes at

2716
01:35:12,500 --> 01:35:15,660
4 at 25 miles per hour what good

2717
01:35:15,660 --> 01:35:17,780
is that and you won't be able to

2718
01:35:17,780 --> 01:35:19,740
fly it without a pilot's license well in

2719
01:35:19,740 --> 01:35:21,220
America would you have a light sport but

2720
01:35:21,220 --> 01:35:22,520
you're not gonna be able to fly it

2721
01:35:22,520 --> 01:35:24,960
from Fredericksburg to Austin a you won't make

2722
01:35:24,960 --> 01:35:28,040
it be you've got a recharge forever you

2723
01:35:28,040 --> 01:35:30,700
can go by yourself no baggage Tina what

2724
01:35:30,700 --> 01:35:32,760
Tina gonna drive with the backup car with

2725
01:35:32,760 --> 01:35:35,460
a battery in the back no all of

2726
01:35:35,460 --> 01:35:38,360
these things are toys the only one that's

2727
01:35:38,360 --> 01:35:41,040
kind of there is that French guy what's

2728
01:35:41,040 --> 01:35:44,200
the French guy good French guy let me

2729
01:35:44,200 --> 01:35:46,020
find the French guy he really had just

2730
01:35:46,020 --> 01:35:47,520
a back to fusion so I can finish

2731
01:35:47,520 --> 01:35:50,560
it off that's that's my concern and yeah

2732
01:35:50,560 --> 01:35:53,580
there's different technologies that the tokamak is the

2733
01:35:53,580 --> 01:35:56,100
big deal and so and there's this other

2734
01:35:56,100 --> 01:35:59,420
thing this helium-3 device that the Microsoft's

2735
01:35:59,420 --> 01:36:02,480
gonna build they're not unless I've never seen

2736
01:36:02,480 --> 01:36:04,680
any evidence these things were could work at

2737
01:36:04,680 --> 01:36:09,790
all they would be built by now well

2738
01:36:09,790 --> 01:36:12,110
we'll have to see four more years we'll

2739
01:36:12,110 --> 01:36:15,910
figure it out it's the air scooter by

2740
01:36:15,910 --> 01:36:19,330
Zapata the French guy Zapata oh that air

2741
01:36:19,330 --> 01:36:22,790
scooter yeah no the demos are dynamite what's

2742
01:36:22,790 --> 01:36:25,510
what's different about that is he has a

2743
01:36:25,510 --> 01:36:33,130
little engine on board which powers the supplies

2744
01:36:33,130 --> 01:36:36,690
continuous electricity with so basically a hybrid to

2745
01:36:36,690 --> 01:36:39,150
the little rotors but that thing is like

2746
01:36:39,150 --> 01:36:41,570
an egg one person he and he flew

2747
01:36:41,570 --> 01:36:43,330
it across the English Channel a couple months

2748
01:36:43,330 --> 01:36:45,410
ago crashed into the channel we're not quite

2749
01:36:45,410 --> 01:36:48,790
sure what happens but that thing is cool

2750
01:36:48,790 --> 01:36:50,910
but you know not for three hundred thousand

2751
01:36:50,910 --> 01:36:56,870
dollars none of it's everyone's drone crazy like

2752
01:36:56,870 --> 01:36:58,570
oh but I could fly the drone and

2753
01:36:58,570 --> 01:37:00,010
then and I could sit in the drone

2754
01:37:00,010 --> 01:37:03,730
no none of it's going to work it's

2755
01:37:03,730 --> 01:37:05,070
you know you just look at the specs

2756
01:37:05,070 --> 01:37:07,650
of these things yeah well you can you

2757
01:37:07,650 --> 01:37:10,390
can fly for you know literally 25 minutes

2758
01:37:10,390 --> 01:37:13,430
some go 40 miles an hour what is

2759
01:37:13,430 --> 01:37:16,110
that we're gonna tootle around town I'm landing

2760
01:37:16,110 --> 01:37:19,490
I'm reminded of these these things are faddish

2761
01:37:19,490 --> 01:37:22,650
and I'd put fusion into the same category

2762
01:37:22,650 --> 01:37:24,590
as faddish although it's a long-term fad

2763
01:37:24,590 --> 01:37:27,730
but the faddishness do you remember the faddishness

2764
01:37:27,730 --> 01:37:31,790
where everyone had the ultralights yeah and they

2765
01:37:31,790 --> 01:37:34,970
get in this little didn't weigh anything and

2766
01:37:34,970 --> 01:37:36,150
they had a little motor in the back

2767
01:37:36,150 --> 01:37:36,890
and I don't even know if he had

2768
01:37:36,890 --> 01:37:38,890
a light need a light they're they're actually

2769
01:37:38,890 --> 01:37:40,710
better than any of this stuff they still

2770
01:37:40,710 --> 01:37:43,250
yeah well but they were all still crashed

2771
01:37:43,250 --> 01:37:44,890
and we used to have a bunch of

2772
01:37:44,890 --> 01:37:46,450
them in the Bay Area I've never seen

2773
01:37:46,450 --> 01:37:48,710
I haven't seen one for ten years when

2774
01:37:48,710 --> 01:37:50,690
when they was very faddish I used to

2775
01:37:50,690 --> 01:37:52,070
see two or three we have a guy

2776
01:37:52,070 --> 01:37:56,130
at church what's his name a kit k

2777
01:37:56,130 --> 01:37:59,230
-i-t-t and he still has metal

2778
01:37:59,230 --> 01:38:01,870
plates throughout his body because he crashed one

2779
01:38:01,870 --> 01:38:04,390
of them in Fredericksburg a couple years ago

2780
01:38:04,390 --> 01:38:07,110
yeah and then they did the fad before

2781
01:38:07,110 --> 01:38:10,210
that were these auto gyros those are cool

2782
01:38:10,210 --> 01:38:13,350
I would love an auto gyro and those

2783
01:38:13,350 --> 01:38:16,610
were very popular in the 70s I think

2784
01:38:16,610 --> 01:38:18,610
they are one of the safest ways to

2785
01:38:18,610 --> 01:38:21,210
fly but it's not an it's not an

2786
01:38:21,210 --> 01:38:24,710
eVTOL you still need a runway to take

2787
01:38:24,710 --> 01:38:26,670
so a couple of companies have tried to

2788
01:38:26,670 --> 01:38:30,550
make rotable gyrocopters I have flown a gyrocopter

2789
01:38:30,550 --> 01:38:32,670
I'm very interested in it no one has

2790
01:38:32,670 --> 01:38:34,950
quite gotten there except for the the V

2791
01:38:34,950 --> 01:38:37,910
pal which is the Dutch guys and they've

2792
01:38:37,910 --> 01:38:39,470
and but it's it's like this big thing

2793
01:38:39,470 --> 01:38:41,750
it folds everything in it's this huge thing

2794
01:38:41,750 --> 01:38:43,750
you know maybe it fits in your garage

2795
01:38:43,750 --> 01:38:46,350
you drive you're driving with it's a three

2796
01:38:46,350 --> 01:38:48,390
-wheeler I'm gonna drive to the airport like

2797
01:38:48,390 --> 01:38:52,590
an idiot whoa and it's two people with

2798
01:38:52,590 --> 01:38:55,350
you know a little overnight bag you might

2799
01:38:55,350 --> 01:38:57,390
as well one-seaters and they don't go

2800
01:38:57,390 --> 01:39:01,130
very fast they go about 90 miles an

2801
01:39:01,130 --> 01:39:03,230
hour yeah but it looked when you see

2802
01:39:03,230 --> 01:39:05,050
one flying around I haven't seen one for

2803
01:39:05,050 --> 01:39:07,010
a year broomstick you're talking about the broomstick

2804
01:39:07,010 --> 01:39:09,110
yeah they look like I'm going like a

2805
01:39:09,110 --> 01:39:11,250
bat out of hell to me no they

2806
01:39:11,250 --> 01:39:14,790
top ninety nine but well usually only about

2807
01:39:14,790 --> 01:39:16,510
ten feet off the ground these guys will

2808
01:39:16,510 --> 01:39:19,010
fly him well now they have there's a

2809
01:39:19,010 --> 01:39:21,170
few a few new ones out that have

2810
01:39:21,170 --> 01:39:26,330
seven-hour endurance and three people closed cockpit

2811
01:39:26,330 --> 01:39:29,570
side-by-side in the back air-conditioning

2812
01:39:29,570 --> 01:39:32,850
an auto gyro yeah really I mean but

2813
01:39:32,850 --> 01:39:35,910
you know $400,000 well you might as

2814
01:39:35,910 --> 01:39:38,010
well buy a secondhand airplane at that point

2815
01:39:38,010 --> 01:39:40,530
there's a bias what is the real benefit

2816
01:39:40,530 --> 01:39:43,250
other than safety because they are very safe

2817
01:39:43,250 --> 01:39:45,530
engine quits you just float down to the

2818
01:39:45,530 --> 01:39:50,090
ground you know so yeah that was if

2819
01:39:50,090 --> 01:39:52,990
a rotor breaks but then you you float

2820
01:39:52,990 --> 01:39:58,770
faster to the ground with all these drone

2821
01:39:58,770 --> 01:40:00,970
things to what well it can fly with

2822
01:40:00,970 --> 01:40:02,570
one rotor out what if two are out

2823
01:40:02,570 --> 01:40:04,950
well you're dead no sorry that's no good

2824
01:40:04,950 --> 01:40:06,690
well then we have the parachute we had

2825
01:40:06,690 --> 01:40:08,710
the ballistic parachute which is an extra $20

2826
01:40:08,710 --> 01:40:11,630
,000 I I look into all of these

2827
01:40:11,630 --> 01:40:14,310
things and none of them does the ones

2828
01:40:14,310 --> 01:40:17,450
that get the most traction is that which

2829
01:40:17,450 --> 01:40:19,090
you know they say oh we're the first

2830
01:40:19,090 --> 01:40:21,650
ones to get a certified flying car I

2831
01:40:21,650 --> 01:40:25,850
think it's a Mueller Mueller Mueller that Mueller

2832
01:40:25,850 --> 01:40:28,450
that guy he the first time this guy

2833
01:40:28,450 --> 01:40:31,370
has been doing this on a cycle of

2834
01:40:31,370 --> 01:40:34,070
about a six seven year cycle since I

2835
01:40:34,070 --> 01:40:37,550
was a kid oh wow really the first

2836
01:40:37,550 --> 01:40:39,950
time I reported this when I was actually

2837
01:40:39,950 --> 01:40:41,870
editor of Info World he was one of

2838
01:40:41,870 --> 01:40:45,270
the cycles that he in 1980 he brought

2839
01:40:45,270 --> 01:40:48,150
it out again Paul Mueller he brought yeah

2840
01:40:48,150 --> 01:40:49,770
the same guy Moller he's in SAC he

2841
01:40:49,770 --> 01:40:51,410
used to be in Sacramento he's around here

2842
01:40:51,410 --> 01:40:53,850
somewhere and he'd bring out the flying car

2843
01:40:53,850 --> 01:40:55,750
the Mueller car yeah and he'd bring it

2844
01:40:55,750 --> 01:40:57,290
out and he brought I oh look at

2845
01:40:57,290 --> 01:40:59,050
this is the flying car we're finally there

2846
01:40:59,050 --> 01:41:01,230
and I remember when when I was in

2847
01:41:01,230 --> 01:41:03,590
like the fifth grade or something the same

2848
01:41:03,590 --> 01:41:06,490
thing came out it's it's the same recycled

2849
01:41:06,490 --> 01:41:08,470
car over and over and over again he

2850
01:41:08,470 --> 01:41:09,810
gets a lot of publicity he's a good

2851
01:41:09,810 --> 01:41:12,050
knows how to get publicity yeah he's had

2852
01:41:12,050 --> 01:41:16,930
all kinds of securities exchange issues for investor

2853
01:41:16,930 --> 01:41:22,990
frauds unregistered stock sales 40 years 100 million

2854
01:41:22,990 --> 01:41:27,710
dollars spent according to Wikipedia yeah and if

2855
01:41:27,710 --> 01:41:28,830
you can go ahead go look at all

2856
01:41:28,830 --> 01:41:31,750
these great things that you see and China's

2857
01:41:31,750 --> 01:41:33,490
oh yeah oh no it's working here in

2858
01:41:33,490 --> 01:41:38,070
China okay it's just not there it's not

2859
01:41:38,070 --> 01:41:40,270
I'd love it believe me I'm the if

2860
01:41:40,270 --> 01:41:42,790
there's a real flying car I'll sell my

2861
01:41:42,790 --> 01:41:45,750
regular car to buy one but I don't

2862
01:41:45,750 --> 01:41:50,530
see it so it goes right it goes

2863
01:41:50,530 --> 01:41:52,930
right up there it's in the it's in

2864
01:41:52,930 --> 01:41:56,010
the the fusion category as far as I'm

2865
01:41:56,010 --> 01:42:01,670
concerned yeah well when we see well yeah

2866
01:42:01,670 --> 01:42:05,010
the fusion thing is gonna gonna collapse I

2867
01:42:05,010 --> 01:42:06,470
would like to say blow up but I

2868
01:42:06,470 --> 01:42:07,650
don't want to use that but it would

2869
01:42:07,650 --> 01:42:09,270
be great I mean obviously it would be

2870
01:42:09,270 --> 01:42:11,350
it'd be fantastic if it works yes we

2871
01:42:11,350 --> 01:42:14,270
would be a hyper nation of course yeah

2872
01:42:14,270 --> 01:42:16,150
it would be fantastic but that's the thing

2873
01:42:16,150 --> 01:42:18,190
it's just one of these pitches it's all

2874
01:42:18,190 --> 01:42:23,050
pitch you know and no product well I'll

2875
01:42:23,050 --> 01:42:25,910
talk to my guy at the DOE yeah

2876
01:42:25,910 --> 01:42:27,830
he'll tell you the same I hope so

2877
01:42:27,830 --> 01:42:30,750
I hope so all right what else you

2878
01:42:30,750 --> 01:42:33,190
got Johnny boy I have a little presentation

2879
01:42:33,190 --> 01:42:36,410
here from San Francisco okay this is the

2880
01:42:36,410 --> 01:42:38,550
big we talked about it before they're suing

2881
01:42:38,550 --> 01:42:40,710
the big food they're suing big food and

2882
01:42:40,710 --> 01:42:42,230
this is this the thing that got me

2883
01:42:42,230 --> 01:42:44,670
into trouble with you mm-hmm because I

2884
01:42:44,670 --> 01:42:47,510
said one thing one day ten years ago

2885
01:42:47,510 --> 01:42:50,450
it was two years ago and then five

2886
01:42:50,450 --> 01:42:52,410
years later I said the opposite then I

2887
01:42:52,410 --> 01:42:54,170
said I flipped they could flip back and

2888
01:42:54,170 --> 01:42:56,030
forth and back and forth and so I'm

2889
01:42:56,030 --> 01:42:58,250
playing these clips and I'm thinking to myself

2890
01:42:58,250 --> 01:42:59,950
as I play these this is the latest

2891
01:42:59,950 --> 01:43:03,530
this came out yesterday as I'm playing these

2892
01:43:03,530 --> 01:43:05,310
clips I'm thinking wait a minute what is

2893
01:43:05,310 --> 01:43:09,190
my position I don't even know anymore it's

2894
01:43:09,190 --> 01:43:11,290
okay I'm not holding you to any position

2895
01:43:11,290 --> 01:43:13,670
we can flip-flop all we want it's

2896
01:43:13,670 --> 01:43:16,030
a pod you think is bullcrap but here

2897
01:43:16,030 --> 01:43:18,050
we go San Francisco is the kind of

2898
01:43:18,050 --> 01:43:21,070
heavily Democratic city that the Trump administration often

2899
01:43:21,070 --> 01:43:23,690
targets but there's one issue they agree on

2900
01:43:23,690 --> 01:43:26,490
they're both taking aim at ultra processed food

2901
01:43:26,490 --> 01:43:28,910
in the first lawsuit of its kind San

2902
01:43:28,910 --> 01:43:31,350
Francisco is suing 11 of the nation's top

2903
01:43:31,350 --> 01:43:34,310
food companies saying they sell ultra processed food

2904
01:43:34,310 --> 01:43:36,810
knowing that they are harmful to health by

2905
01:43:36,810 --> 01:43:39,070
some estimates more than 60% of the

2906
01:43:39,070 --> 01:43:41,030
food consumed in the United States is ultra

2907
01:43:41,030 --> 01:43:44,150
processed a growing body of scientific research says

2908
01:43:44,150 --> 01:43:46,710
diets high in ultra processed food lead to

2909
01:43:46,710 --> 01:43:50,070
chronic diseases like obesity type 2 diabetes heart

2910
01:43:50,070 --> 01:43:53,290
disease and depression earlier John Yang spoke with

2911
01:43:53,290 --> 01:43:56,470
Ashley Gearheart a University of Michigan psychology professor

2912
01:43:56,470 --> 01:43:59,170
who studies addiction actually we just heard the

2913
01:43:59,170 --> 01:44:02,330
San Francisco City Attorney say that ultra processed

2914
01:44:02,330 --> 01:44:05,110
foods are designed to be addictive do you

2915
01:44:05,110 --> 01:44:08,370
agree yes in my lab that we see

2916
01:44:08,370 --> 01:44:11,150
that these products can really trigger all the

2917
01:44:11,150 --> 01:44:14,130
core signs of addiction that loss of control

2918
01:44:14,130 --> 01:44:18,130
those intense cravings that continued use even though

2919
01:44:18,130 --> 01:44:20,070
you know it may be killing or harming

2920
01:44:20,070 --> 01:44:23,470
you so I'll just and this is not

2921
01:44:23,470 --> 01:44:26,870
for any other reasons other than it was

2922
01:44:26,870 --> 01:44:29,870
Cali means when RFK jr.

2923
01:44:29,870 --> 01:44:33,610
was running and he was on Tucker and

2924
01:44:33,610 --> 01:44:38,350
the story was that tobacco companies RGR bought

2925
01:44:38,350 --> 01:44:41,750
the food companies and then they told their

2926
01:44:41,750 --> 01:44:44,330
scientists do exactly what you did to make

2927
01:44:44,330 --> 01:44:47,110
tobacco addictive and do it for food that

2928
01:44:47,110 --> 01:44:49,410
was that was the claim at the time

2929
01:44:49,410 --> 01:44:53,870
yeah and I thought it was bullcrap because

2930
01:44:53,870 --> 01:44:55,450
it's like what do you would you put

2931
01:44:55,450 --> 01:44:57,390
nicotine in the food I mean there are

2932
01:44:57,390 --> 01:45:02,070
there's literally there were literally addictive substances in

2933
01:45:02,070 --> 01:45:06,010
cigarettes nicotine mm-hmm that's addictive well you

2934
01:45:06,010 --> 01:45:08,430
they don't put nicotine in it no no

2935
01:45:08,430 --> 01:45:10,570
but I think it was sugar and other

2936
01:45:10,570 --> 01:45:16,530
substances oh no because before before the tobacco

2937
01:45:16,530 --> 01:45:19,290
companies even got involved there were tons of

2938
01:45:19,290 --> 01:45:20,870
sugar I mean they remember when I was

2939
01:45:20,870 --> 01:45:23,290
a kid they had all these crackers and

2940
01:45:23,290 --> 01:45:26,950
wafers and vanilla wafers and they took sugar

2941
01:45:26,950 --> 01:45:30,290
in that sugary cereal before tobacco guys also

2942
01:45:30,290 --> 01:45:34,130
Twinkies and ho-ho's and ho-ho's and

2943
01:45:34,130 --> 01:45:39,730
hostess cookie cupcakes mmm delicious little Debbie the

2944
01:45:39,730 --> 01:45:41,950
next mm-hmm how do they do that

2945
01:45:41,950 --> 01:45:43,910
what's what are in the foods that make

2946
01:45:43,910 --> 01:45:46,370
people addicted to it yeah there's a certain

2947
01:45:46,370 --> 01:45:49,390
addiction playbook that's been used from tobacco to

2948
01:45:49,390 --> 01:45:53,350
opiates to sports betting you take something that

2949
01:45:53,350 --> 01:45:56,570
exists typically exist in nature like a plant

2950
01:45:56,570 --> 01:45:59,490
or you know fruit and you alter it

2951
01:45:59,490 --> 01:46:02,110
so it gives just this just right dose

2952
01:46:02,110 --> 01:46:05,090
of reward it stimulates you but doesn't fully

2953
01:46:05,090 --> 01:46:06,990
satisfy you so you want to keep coming

2954
01:46:06,990 --> 01:46:13,150
back for more you can titrate the smell

2955
01:46:13,150 --> 01:46:15,690
the flavor the taste and then you flood

2956
01:46:15,690 --> 01:46:18,490
the environment with it so your consumers even

2957
01:46:18,490 --> 01:46:20,810
if they have a slight moment of temptation

2958
01:46:20,810 --> 01:46:23,770
the product is right at arm's reach and

2959
01:46:23,770 --> 01:46:25,610
the next thing they know they're using again

2960
01:46:25,610 --> 01:46:29,070
this is what's happened to a big tobacco

2961
01:46:29,070 --> 01:46:31,610
really took over and the 70s and 80s

2962
01:46:31,610 --> 01:46:33,850
and those same levers have been used to

2963
01:46:33,850 --> 01:46:36,410
create ultra processed foods that are now killing

2964
01:46:36,410 --> 01:46:40,190
1,400 Americans every day Wow I would

2965
01:46:40,190 --> 01:46:42,630
say the marketing and the packaging and the

2966
01:46:42,630 --> 01:46:46,270
coloring you walk through the food through the

2967
01:46:46,270 --> 01:46:49,530
quote-unquote food aisle at the supermarket it's

2968
01:46:49,530 --> 01:46:51,710
just like it's like a circus you know

2969
01:46:51,710 --> 01:46:53,450
there's like oh eat me eat me eat

2970
01:46:53,450 --> 01:46:55,230
me all this stuff oh yeah it looks

2971
01:46:55,230 --> 01:46:57,310
so good and attractive and kids love it

2972
01:46:57,310 --> 01:47:00,350
yeah yeah I like using though as a

2973
01:47:00,350 --> 01:47:03,870
term I'm used it's called eating not using

2974
01:47:03,870 --> 01:47:06,770
I'm using ho-ho's man I'm using some

2975
01:47:06,770 --> 01:47:09,690
potato chips hey Dvorak are you holding are

2976
01:47:09,690 --> 01:47:11,890
you holding anything man are you holding any

2977
01:47:11,890 --> 01:47:14,230
any twinkie I'm going a dime bag of

2978
01:47:14,230 --> 01:47:20,050
potato chips I clip three you say when

2979
01:47:20,050 --> 01:47:22,750
big tobacco took over food what do you

2980
01:47:22,750 --> 01:47:25,910
mean by that in the 1960s 70s and

2981
01:47:25,910 --> 01:47:28,890
80s Philip Morris and RJ Reynolds started buying

2982
01:47:28,890 --> 01:47:32,250
up the big food companies like craft and

2983
01:47:32,250 --> 01:47:34,810
general foods they created some of your favorite

2984
01:47:34,810 --> 01:47:38,270
products and marketed them like Hawaiian punch and

2985
01:47:38,270 --> 01:47:43,810
Lunchables researchers like Laura Schmidt who has found

2986
01:47:43,810 --> 01:47:47,990
that they have applied technologies flavorants marketing strategies

2987
01:47:47,990 --> 01:47:51,370
that were honed to sell tobacco products and

2988
01:47:51,370 --> 01:47:53,870
have applied them to the ultra processed food

2989
01:47:53,870 --> 01:47:57,610
holdings they divested some of these food companies

2990
01:47:57,610 --> 01:48:01,030
and the mid-2000s but the stamp of

2991
01:48:01,030 --> 01:48:04,470
big tobacco on our food supply has never

2992
01:48:04,470 --> 01:48:07,930
changed it's actually just amplified over time and

2993
01:48:07,930 --> 01:48:10,690
fundamentally changed the food that we eat should

2994
01:48:10,690 --> 01:48:13,750
it be regulated the way tobacco is now

2995
01:48:13,750 --> 01:48:17,370
yeah when I read things that the food

2996
01:48:17,370 --> 01:48:19,990
industry is saying you know they're talking a

2997
01:48:19,990 --> 01:48:23,130
lot about how to turn cravings into corporate

2998
01:48:23,130 --> 01:48:26,090
profits or they'll say you know indulgence has

2999
01:48:26,090 --> 01:48:28,570
really been a main profit margin for us

3000
01:48:28,570 --> 01:48:30,170
that's a big driver of how we're making

3001
01:48:30,170 --> 01:48:32,530
money and so we've needed time and time

3002
01:48:32,530 --> 01:48:35,510
again for the government to step in and

3003
01:48:35,510 --> 01:48:38,150
put some guardrails on those sorts of companies

3004
01:48:38,150 --> 01:48:41,330
so we and our children can live happy

3005
01:48:41,330 --> 01:48:45,030
sustainable nourished lives rather than being in these

3006
01:48:45,030 --> 01:48:48,070
cycles of just craving and crashing that doesn't

3007
01:48:48,070 --> 01:48:51,070
benefit us but does benefit those corporations okay

3008
01:48:51,070 --> 01:48:53,830
I'm calling it this is a marketing ploy

3009
01:48:53,830 --> 01:48:57,370
this is a marketing ploy for these companies

3010
01:48:57,370 --> 01:49:01,910
now to start selling healthy non-addictive which

3011
01:49:01,910 --> 01:49:05,910
is bullcrap this is how a lawsuit can

3012
01:49:05,910 --> 01:49:07,910
become a marketing ploy they're not behind the

3013
01:49:07,910 --> 01:49:11,730
lawsuit by the way lawsuits in her in

3014
01:49:11,730 --> 01:49:14,890
her commentary Nestle which is one of the

3015
01:49:14,890 --> 01:49:17,750
group biggest monster companies what have they got

3016
01:49:17,750 --> 01:49:22,340
to do with tobacco no one ever mentions

3017
01:49:22,340 --> 01:49:25,560
that well when I was a kid the

3018
01:49:25,560 --> 01:49:29,680

01:50:55,980 --> 01:50:57,640
there may be some marketing aspect to it

3051
01:50:57,640 --> 01:50:59,920
and you know like coca-cola is named

3052
01:50:59,920 --> 01:51:01,700
I know what's coca-cola got to do

3053
01:51:01,700 --> 01:51:04,900
with tobacco this tobacco angles what bothers me

3054
01:51:04,900 --> 01:51:08,460
it's bullcrap well I go companies you're you're

3055
01:51:08,460 --> 01:51:11,260
a big tobacco company you're looking to diversify

3056
01:51:11,260 --> 01:51:13,080
so you get into the food food business

3057
01:51:13,080 --> 01:51:15,160
because yeah it's not so you can make

3058
01:51:15,160 --> 01:51:17,320
the food more addictive it's because you know

3059
01:51:17,320 --> 01:51:19,440
how to sell you know how to sell

3060
01:51:19,440 --> 01:51:21,580
things and you like and you're you're losing

3061
01:51:21,580 --> 01:51:24,160
your ability to advertise but you have the

3062
01:51:24,160 --> 01:51:25,900
skill sets to do it so you advertise

3063
01:51:25,900 --> 01:51:28,540
you're good at advertising that's what you do

3064
01:51:28,540 --> 01:51:31,300
you're basically a sell it sales company yeah

3065
01:51:31,300 --> 01:51:34,600
I think you're right you know boom you

3066
01:51:34,600 --> 01:51:36,500
sell something else so what difference does it

3067
01:51:36,500 --> 01:51:42,300
make yeah you're right blaming tobacco yes evil

3068
01:51:42,300 --> 01:51:48,140
tobacco guys I supported them for 58 now

3069
01:51:48,140 --> 01:51:52,800

with one hand because you know or you

3084
01:52:31,000 --> 01:52:32,820
you hold the steering wheel with your knees

3085
01:52:32,820 --> 01:52:34,620
that's what a Tesla would be good for

3086
01:52:34,620 --> 01:52:36,520
I get rolled up my tobacco here yeah

3087
01:52:36,520 --> 01:52:37,900

with your knees yeah drum drum was my

3089
01:52:39,980 --> 01:52:42,420
favorite drum and then you had some of

3090
01:52:42,420 --> 01:52:44,420

3091
01:52:44,420 --> 01:52:47,540
the vanilla and that was black tobacco whoo

3092
01:52:47,540 --> 01:52:49,640

01:53:09,680 --> 01:53:12,640
because it's horrible it was nasty and it

3100
01:53:12,640 --> 01:53:15,500
would pop and sparkle and then you got

3101
01:53:15,500 --> 01:53:17,260
a burn hole in your clothes and your

3102
01:53:17,260 --> 01:53:19,120
mom would like how did this happen no

3103
01:53:19,120 --> 01:53:22,980
no no no no of course later just

3104
01:53:22,980 --> 01:53:25,100
had a good old day they were good

3105
01:53:25,100 --> 01:53:27,420
old days not like those kids in New

3106
01:53:27,420 --> 01:53:30,560
York they've got mom Donny few of these

3107
01:53:30,560 --> 01:53:32,740
eight and a half million will fit into

3108
01:53:32,740 --> 01:53:35,940
neat and easy boxes some will be voters

3109
01:53:35,940 --> 01:53:39,020
from Hillside Avenue or Fordham Road who supported

3110
01:53:39,020 --> 01:53:41,140
President Trump a year before they voted for

3111
01:53:41,140 --> 01:53:44,500
me tired of being failed by their party's

3112
01:53:44,500 --> 01:53:48,060
establishment the majority will not use the language

3113
01:53:48,060 --> 01:53:50,620
that we often expect from those who wield

3114
01:53:50,620 --> 01:53:54,880
influence I welcome the change for too long

3115
01:53:54,880 --> 01:53:57,520
those fluent in the good grammar of civility

3116
01:53:57,520 --> 01:54:00,980
have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty

3117
01:54:00,980 --> 01:54:05,900
these people have been betrayed by the established

3118
01:54:05,900 --> 01:54:08,780
order you know before I finish he has

3119
01:54:08,780 --> 01:54:11,940
a little bit of a little bit of

3120
01:54:11,940 --> 01:54:15,280
an Obama cadence but it's all his own

3121
01:54:15,280 --> 01:54:19,920
and as an orator I'm impressed the words

3122
01:54:19,920 --> 01:54:21,720
you know this it's blah blah blah but

3123
01:54:21,720 --> 01:54:24,120
it's good and of course the classic is

3124
01:54:24,120 --> 01:54:27,500
coming up here but in our administration their

3125
01:54:27,500 --> 01:54:30,400
needs will be met their hopes and dreams

3126
01:54:30,400 --> 01:54:33,500
and interests will be reflected transparently in government

3127
01:54:33,500 --> 01:54:37,060
they will shape our future and if we're

3128
01:54:37,060 --> 01:54:40,240
too long these communities have existed as distinct

3129
01:54:40,240 --> 01:54:43,420
from one another we will draw this city

3130
01:54:43,420 --> 01:54:47,420
closer together we will replace the frigidity of

3131
01:54:47,420 --> 01:54:51,420
rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism if

3132
01:54:51,420 --> 01:54:57,080
our New York yearn for solidarity then let

3133
01:54:57,080 --> 01:54:59,960
this government foster it he's not gonna do

3134
01:54:59,960 --> 01:55:03,040
any of it I don't think he's gonna

3135
01:55:03,040 --> 01:55:05,560
do a single thing I mean no he's

3136
01:55:05,560 --> 01:55:08,560
just a big talker yeah and he's good

3137
01:55:08,560 --> 01:55:10,300
at it though yes but it's probably just

3138
01:55:10,300 --> 01:55:15,460
gonna get more corrupt he owes the he

3139
01:55:15,460 --> 01:55:17,980
he did some anti-jew stuff everyone's all

3140
01:55:17,980 --> 01:55:20,360
up in arms listen to this pro-israel

3141
01:55:20,360 --> 01:55:23,840
groups are slamming their money for revoking two

3142
01:55:23,840 --> 01:55:26,760
executive orders by former mayor Adams meant to

3143
01:55:26,760 --> 01:55:29,920
support Israel one of them barred city agencies

3144
01:55:29,920 --> 01:55:33,080
from boycotting or divesting from Israel the other

3145
01:55:33,080 --> 01:55:38,080
adopted the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition of

3146
01:55:38,080 --> 01:55:41,100
anti-semitism it equates some forms of anti

3147
01:55:41,100 --> 01:55:45,960
-israel criticism with anti-semitism these executives orders

3148
01:55:45,960 --> 01:55:49,200
are two of nine that Mamdani revoked because

3149
01:55:49,200 --> 01:55:52,480
they came after Adams was indicted on federal

3150
01:55:52,480 --> 01:55:55,440
corruption charges Mayor Mamdani said he wanted a

3151
01:55:55,440 --> 01:55:58,480
fresh start for his administration he did not

3152
01:55:58,480 --> 01:56:00,940
revoke the creation of the city's office to

3153
01:56:00,940 --> 01:56:04,400
combat anti-semitism which Adams created in May

3154
01:56:04,400 --> 01:56:08,140
Oh week week should have done that I

3155
01:56:08,140 --> 01:56:12,380
was reading a salon article about the about

3156
01:56:12,380 --> 01:56:15,520
the block party you know Marissa Torme is

3157
01:56:15,520 --> 01:56:18,540
out there and you know with their red

3158
01:56:18,540 --> 01:56:22,340
hats you know their socialists had their DSA

3159
01:56:22,340 --> 01:56:25,380
hats and then was passing out coffee and

3160
01:56:25,380 --> 01:56:28,200
isn't it great just a great moment 25

3161
01:56:28,200 --> 01:56:33,140
degrees in New York we can just call

3162
01:56:33,140 --> 01:56:35,340
it the guy's not gonna do anything it'll

3163
01:56:35,340 --> 01:56:37,300
just be sad if some New Yorkers get

3164
01:56:37,300 --> 01:56:39,480
hurt because he's putting income poops in charge

3165
01:56:39,480 --> 01:56:42,960
of police fire you know we'll have to

3166
01:56:42,960 --> 01:56:46,700
see I hope I hope oh yeah yeah

3167
01:56:46,700 --> 01:56:50,580
he's I don't I agree I think he's

3168
01:56:50,580 --> 01:56:53,620
not gonna do anything but he's going to

3169
01:56:53,620 --> 01:56:56,480
buy by putting idiots in charge of various

3170
01:56:56,480 --> 01:56:59,320
departments it's going to be a problem at

3171
01:56:59,320 --> 01:57:02,740
some point and who will get blamed black

3172
01:57:02,740 --> 01:57:07,380
women yeah well the head of the of

3173
01:57:07,380 --> 01:57:09,440
the fire department that the lesbian is not

3174
01:57:09,440 --> 01:57:13,460
black yeah but but listen this is just

3175
01:57:13,460 --> 01:57:17,940
this is the socialist playbook like we make

3176
01:57:17,940 --> 01:57:21,680
big talk big promises and of course you

3177
01:57:21,680 --> 01:57:23,460
know he's gonna tax the rich well how

3178
01:57:23,460 --> 01:57:26,400
did that work for Ro Khanna isn't that

3179
01:57:26,400 --> 01:57:29,520
his name Ro Khanna yeah he's a he's

3180
01:57:29,520 --> 01:57:32,740
out here yeah he's a 5% wealth

3181
01:57:32,740 --> 01:57:35,280
tax on all billionaires and everyone went okay

3182
01:57:35,280 --> 01:57:40,120
we're priming you bitch I'm sorry I didn't

3183
01:57:40,120 --> 01:57:43,500
mean to say that yeah you have 2

3184
01:57:43,500 --> 01:57:47,220
,000 billionaires in California apparently you know there's

3185
01:57:47,220 --> 01:57:49,200
about 200 baby oh I thought it was

3186
01:57:49,200 --> 01:57:50,980
more than that well still I don't think

3187
01:57:50,980 --> 01:57:53,160
it's that even 200 I could be wrong

3188
01:57:53,160 --> 01:57:55,540
no it's not a lot of money these

3189
01:57:55,540 --> 01:57:57,740
days anymore is it but you know a

3190
01:57:57,740 --> 01:57:59,120
lot of people worth a lot of money

3191
01:57:59,120 --> 01:58:01,560
but a billion is a is an extreme

3192
01:58:01,560 --> 01:58:07,840
amount yeah well in 1990 a house was

3193
01:58:07,840 --> 01:58:12,780
20 grand well that's the thing that needs

3194
01:58:12,780 --> 01:58:16,220
to be fixed definitely neat there's I haven't

3195
01:58:16,220 --> 01:58:18,000
really figured it out yet but I keep

3196
01:58:18,000 --> 01:58:21,780
hearing Tom Luongo talking about what Trump's gonna

3197
01:58:21,780 --> 01:58:24,360
do with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and

3198
01:58:24,360 --> 01:58:26,700
that's somehow gonna fix it do you don't

3199
01:58:26,700 --> 01:58:28,760
think you the figure how you fix is

3200
01:58:28,760 --> 01:58:30,420
you build more houses and get rid of

3201
01:58:30,420 --> 01:58:34,360
the migrants yeah well one checkmark on that

3202
01:58:34,360 --> 01:58:36,660
it's starting getting rid of the but since

3203
01:58:36,660 --> 01:58:38,800
we're in the mood don't want to miss

3204
01:58:38,800 --> 01:58:41,900
this report about you know about but superflu

3205
01:58:41,900 --> 01:58:45,460
I have it yeah you had it and

3206
01:58:45,460 --> 01:58:47,860
of course you know it's already determined that

3207
01:58:47,860 --> 01:58:49,560
and they've determined and they like to say

3208
01:58:49,560 --> 01:58:52,360
that that you know the vaccine doesn't work

3209
01:58:52,360 --> 01:58:55,360
at all for it and but but they're

3210
01:58:55,360 --> 01:58:57,700
gonna still beat us up as you know

3211
01:58:57,700 --> 01:58:59,340
it may not work but you know it

3212
01:58:59,340 --> 01:59:01,460
kind of works and and so now then

3213
01:59:01,460 --> 01:59:03,820
the technique they're using in this report is

3214
01:59:03,820 --> 01:59:09,500
let's first scare people about measles yes and

3215
01:59:09,500 --> 01:59:11,000
then we can tell them to get the

3216
01:59:11,000 --> 01:59:13,140
flu shot isn't this the special K the

3217
01:59:13,140 --> 01:59:16,540
sub sublocade K or sub sub K sublocades

3218
01:59:16,540 --> 01:59:19,900
something stupid I call it special K measles

3219
01:59:19,900 --> 01:59:23,240
cases of the US have skyrocketed over three

3220
01:59:23,240 --> 01:59:25,980
decades how many is that skyrocket sky is

3221
01:59:25,980 --> 01:59:27,640
it to the moon is it to Mars

3222
01:59:27,640 --> 01:59:30,320
how high is it it's less than 3

3223
01:59:30,320 --> 01:59:32,520
,000 so we have the entire population of

3224
01:59:32,520 --> 01:59:36,120
300 million people skyrocket we have we have

3225
01:59:36,120 --> 01:59:39,580
less than one less than a percent okay

3226
01:59:39,580 --> 01:59:42,560
CDC the number of recorded measles cases this

3227
01:59:42,560 --> 01:59:44,620
year has topped 2,000 for the first

3228
01:59:44,620 --> 01:59:46,720
time in more than 30 years the measles

3229
01:59:46,720 --> 01:59:49,620
cases were confirmed across 44 states here in

3230
01:59:49,620 --> 01:59:52,180
Washington there were 12 12 12 confirmed measles

3231
01:59:52,180 --> 01:59:55,320
cases in 2025 earlier this month the contagious

3232
01:59:55,320 --> 01:59:57,700
virus was detected at two major airports during

3233
01:59:57,700 --> 02:00:00,800
peak holiday travel airport international airport in New

3234
02:00:00,800 --> 02:00:03,920
Jersey and at Boston Logan Airport measles spike

3235
02:00:03,920 --> 02:00:05,960
is being attributed to a drop in national

3236
02:00:05,960 --> 02:00:09,180
vaccination rates on the rise new data from

3237
02:00:09,180 --> 02:00:11,600
the CDC shows flu cases continuing to spike

3238
02:00:11,600 --> 02:00:13,400
across the country by driven by a new

3239
02:00:13,400 --> 02:00:17,940
variant called super flu Steve Harrigan shows us

3240
02:00:17,940 --> 02:00:20,520
the uptick in infections comes as vaccination rates

3241
02:00:20,520 --> 02:00:23,380
remain low health officials across the country are

3242
02:00:23,380 --> 02:00:26,080
scrambling to contain a new surge of respiratory

3243
02:00:26,080 --> 02:00:29,640
illnesses and while COVID and RSV are on

3244
02:00:29,640 --> 02:00:32,320
the radar this year a new variant nicknamed

3245
02:00:32,320 --> 02:00:35,800
super flu is causing the most infections it

3246
02:00:35,800 --> 02:00:38,960
just so happens that this sub clade K

3247
02:00:38,960 --> 02:00:41,100
variant that we're seeing really does seem to

3248
02:00:41,100 --> 02:00:43,320
spread very efficiently it's just part of its

3249
02:00:43,320 --> 02:00:45,360
genetic makeup you can see here on the

3250
02:00:45,360 --> 02:00:48,700
CDC's latest flu tracker most of the country

3251
02:00:48,700 --> 02:00:52,040
is experiencing high activity so far this season

3252
02:00:52,040 --> 02:00:53,960
we've seen at least seven and a half

3253
02:00:53,960 --> 02:00:58,680
million cases 81,000 hospitalizations and more than

3254
02:00:58,680 --> 02:01:02,000
3,000 deaths experts say the virus is

3255
02:01:02,000 --> 02:01:05,140
affecting children more severely and that trend is

3256
02:01:05,140 --> 02:01:08,060
expected to continue as people return from holiday

3257
02:01:08,060 --> 02:01:10,080
travel if you go to the urgent care

3258
02:01:10,080 --> 02:01:12,860
clinics or doctors offices or even emergency rooms

3259
02:01:12,860 --> 02:01:15,100
you are they're flooded now with a lot

3260
02:01:15,100 --> 02:01:18,960
of flu patients another big driver vaccine hesitancy

3261
02:01:18,960 --> 02:01:21,580
only 42% of adults have gotten the

3262
02:01:21,580 --> 02:01:24,360
flu shot this year doctors say well the

3263
02:01:24,360 --> 02:01:26,540
new variant is not a perfect match for

3264
02:01:26,540 --> 02:01:30,060
the vaccine recent analysis from the UK finds

3265
02:01:30,060 --> 02:01:32,840
the shot offers at least partial protection oh

3266
02:01:32,840 --> 02:01:35,140
yeah all right what does that mean partial

3267
02:01:35,140 --> 02:01:39,220
you won't die you know this is interesting

3268
02:01:39,220 --> 02:01:44,920
so superflu I typed that into my into

3269
02:01:44,920 --> 02:01:50,340
my handy-dandy clip search machine and I

3270
02:01:50,340 --> 02:01:54,300
come up with a clip from September 2019

3271
02:01:54,300 --> 02:02:01,220
which would be just before COVID am I

3272
02:02:01,220 --> 02:02:03,720
right in the timeline here I think so

3273
02:02:03,720 --> 02:02:05,940
and this I mean COVID I think came

3274
02:02:05,940 --> 02:02:08,780
out in 2019 no no that's before COVID

3275
02:02:08,780 --> 02:02:10,940
became flattened the curve and all the rest

3276
02:02:10,940 --> 02:02:13,560
no that I mean because I think that

3277
02:02:13,560 --> 02:02:15,800
person died already that person in Washington State

3278
02:02:15,800 --> 02:02:17,820
may have died by that by September but

3279
02:02:17,820 --> 02:02:20,200
but I wouldn't know because I think I

3280
02:02:20,200 --> 02:02:23,800
went to Rogan in October and there's two

3281
02:02:23,800 --> 02:02:27,900
weeks after that that because that's when the

3282
02:02:27,900 --> 02:02:28,260
dr.

3283
02:02:28,480 --> 02:02:30,300
doom was on what's the guy's name again

3284
02:02:30,300 --> 02:02:32,520
yeah a guy who got who has long

3285
02:02:32,520 --> 02:02:35,380
COVID now ironically whatever that is see I

3286
02:02:35,380 --> 02:02:37,580
wonder how that happened so that this could

3287
02:02:37,580 --> 02:02:39,160
be a dud but I just like to

3288
02:02:39,160 --> 02:02:42,720
listen because this was titled superflu with dr.

3289
02:02:42,800 --> 02:02:45,740
Marc Siegel you remember that guy yeah he's

3290
02:02:45,740 --> 02:02:47,760
still around he's on Fox yeah and he

3291
02:02:47,760 --> 02:02:49,520
was on Tucker a new report by the

3292
02:02:49,520 --> 02:02:51,580
World Health Organization says it's just a matter

3293
02:02:51,580 --> 02:02:53,880
of time maybe not that much time before

3294
02:02:53,880 --> 02:02:57,660
a major flu pandemic these days hyperglobalized world

3295
02:02:57,660 --> 02:02:59,800
the report says a superflu could spread worldwide

3296
02:02:59,800 --> 02:03:03,080
in just 36 hours and potentially kill 80

3297
02:03:03,080 --> 02:03:07,000
million people we prepared for that isn't that

3298
02:03:07,000 --> 02:03:10,920
interesting that this this CDC they say CDC

3299
02:03:10,920 --> 02:03:16,000
or World Health Organization world health or so

3300
02:03:16,000 --> 02:03:20,020
they were talking about a superflu September 19th

3301
02:03:20,020 --> 02:03:23,480
2019 that could fly around the world in

3302
02:03:23,480 --> 02:03:26,460
36 hours and kill 80 million people yeah

3303
02:03:26,460 --> 02:03:28,680
which was the numbers we were given for

3304
02:03:28,680 --> 02:03:33,120
COVID hit so think about that setup isn't

3305
02:03:33,120 --> 02:03:36,680
that interesting yeah gee so so when they

3306
02:03:36,680 --> 02:03:39,320
come up with the superflu again be careful

3307
02:03:39,320 --> 02:03:42,440
what they're doing with that I want to

3308
02:03:42,440 --> 02:03:43,740
thank you for your courage say in the

love a good and I love a good

3319
02:04:17,950 --> 02:04:20,630
invasion of distraction I love it when Trump

does something I love it I'll be honest

3321
02:04:24,950 --> 02:04:26,830
he needs to do more he needs to

3322
02:04:26,830 --> 02:04:28,430
do more of this stuff yeah because everyone

3323
02:04:28,430 --> 02:04:30,150
oh let's see what the boys got to

3324
02:04:30,150 --> 02:04:32,430
say let's listen to them let's see what

3325
02:04:32,430 --> 02:04:34,150
let's see what those how many what they're

3326
02:04:34,150 --> 02:04:40,270
doing for the Israel shekels Hasbro remember Netanyahu

3327
02:04:40,270 --> 02:04:42,570
just left the White House when all this

3328
02:04:42,570 --> 02:04:47,670
kicked off I'm just he calls the shot

3329
02:04:47,670 --> 02:04:51,270
I'm just asking questions those trolls are in

3330
02:04:51,270 --> 02:04:53,830
the troll room troll room dot IO and

3331
02:04:53,830 --> 02:04:55,910
they are probably listening on a modern podcast

3332
02:04:55,910 --> 02:04:57,370
that by the way if you go to

3333
02:04:57,370 --> 02:05:01,390
alpha dot pod verse comm you can check

3334
02:05:01,390 --> 02:05:03,370
out the new web version of pod verse

3335
02:05:03,370 --> 02:05:04,830
I just had Mitch and Archie on the

3336
02:05:04,830 --> 02:05:08,710
show yeah they're doing good stuff it's all

3337
02:05:08,710 --> 02:05:12,150
every single podcasting 2.0 features and they've

3338
02:05:12,150 --> 02:05:13,970
jammed in there but you can find them

3339
02:05:13,970 --> 02:05:16,350
all at podcast apps calm and that means

3340
02:05:16,350 --> 02:05:18,550
that when we go live you'll be alerted

3341
02:05:18,550 --> 02:05:21,510
with a live notification it's yes it's pretty

3342
02:05:21,510 --> 02:05:23,590
cool you listen to the live stream right

3343
02:05:23,590 --> 02:05:25,330
there in your podcast app it's the new

3344
02:05:25,330 --> 02:05:27,670
form of radio people I'm telling you I

3345
02:05:27,670 --> 02:05:29,290
tell you now and in 10 years it'll

3346
02:05:29,290 --> 02:05:30,710
be so and I will have made no

3347
02:05:30,710 --> 02:05:33,150
money that's how I that's how I roll

3348
02:05:33,630 --> 02:05:36,350
I've seen it time and time again so

3349
02:05:36,350 --> 02:05:40,770
get in on the train early so those

3350
02:05:40,770 --> 02:05:43,190
trolls are in the troll room and of

3351
02:05:43,190 --> 02:05:44,790
course you can participate at that at any

3352
02:05:44,790 --> 02:05:46,330
time that you want to and you can

3353
02:05:46,330 --> 02:05:48,350
participate in many ways on this podcast by

3354
02:05:48,350 --> 02:05:50,650
helping us with your time your talent or

3355
02:05:50,650 --> 02:05:55,490
your treasure now normally we will thank the

3356
02:05:55,490 --> 02:06:01,970
artists for episode 1831 however bad news we

3357
02:06:01,970 --> 02:06:06,710
had we got Sir Paul Couture emailed us

3358
02:06:06,710 --> 02:06:09,010
and said well we had a disastrous crash

3359
02:06:09,010 --> 02:06:10,930
and of course Paul Couture has been running

3360
02:06:10,930 --> 02:06:14,370
the art generator for a long time and

3361
02:06:14,370 --> 02:06:17,790
it's yeah it's usually stable stuff they're running

3362
02:06:17,790 --> 02:06:19,650
it because he invented it he is he

3363
02:06:19,650 --> 02:06:22,210
certainly did invent it and you know sometimes

3364
02:06:22,210 --> 02:06:25,090
things go wrong and sometimes things break and

3365
02:06:25,090 --> 02:06:28,430
so he lost all of the submissions that

3366
02:06:28,430 --> 02:06:31,430
were put in since the previous show I

3367
02:06:31,430 --> 02:06:33,810
guess except for what he saved was everything

3368
02:06:33,810 --> 02:06:36,950
that was chosen so we're sorry we can't

3369
02:06:36,950 --> 02:06:38,630
we can't nag and rag on all the

3370
02:06:38,630 --> 02:06:41,570
previous AI generated art because it's all gone

3371
02:06:41,570 --> 02:06:44,910
but we can thank Jeffrey Rhea for bringing

3372
02:06:44,910 --> 02:06:47,230
us the artwork for episode 1830 which was

3373
02:06:47,230 --> 02:06:49,670
titled bulb heads got a lot of comments

3374
02:06:49,670 --> 02:06:54,690
on that which I didn't get any comment

3375
02:06:54,690 --> 02:06:57,610
oh well I mean that's people like put

3376
02:06:57,610 --> 02:06:59,090
a bikini on it now I saw it

3377
02:06:59,090 --> 02:07:01,670
in the in my timeline Keeney and I

3378
02:07:01,670 --> 02:07:03,610
just want to say that this incredibly racist

3379
02:07:03,610 --> 02:07:05,350
comment did not come from you or for

3380
02:07:05,350 --> 02:07:09,150
me but came from Mimi Mimi's the one

3381
02:07:09,150 --> 02:07:11,110
who first told me it used the term

3382
02:07:11,110 --> 02:07:17,090
bulb head it's so it's so horrible it's

3383
02:07:17,090 --> 02:07:20,050
got to be the worst but there it

3384
02:07:20,050 --> 02:07:22,010
is that was her description of the guy

3385
02:07:22,010 --> 02:07:26,450
who ran for mayor which mayor for what

3386
02:07:26,450 --> 02:07:29,010
Minneapolis though that did some holly that ran

3387
02:07:29,010 --> 02:07:33,430
from Minneapolis mayor head of curious shape cranium

3388
02:07:33,430 --> 02:07:37,210
crayon yes yeah she called him a bulb

3389
02:07:37,210 --> 02:07:39,950
head how about have you seen what's the

3390
02:07:39,950 --> 02:07:42,610
girl who was just on Saturday Night Live

3391
02:07:42,610 --> 02:07:49,690
the great singer Ariana Grande yes I've noticed

3392
02:07:49,690 --> 02:07:51,830
that she's her look has changed she has

3393
02:07:51,830 --> 02:07:55,010
an alien head so yeah tissue went through

3394
02:07:55,010 --> 02:07:56,330
she got some I think she had some

3395
02:07:56,330 --> 02:07:57,690
work done and I don't think it came

3396
02:07:57,690 --> 02:07:59,670
out well but it's like the back of

3397
02:07:59,670 --> 02:08:01,890
her head extends half a head longer than

3398
02:08:01,890 --> 02:08:05,950
it should you gotta take a look at

3399
02:08:05,950 --> 02:08:08,790
it yeah she's also doesn't look the fair

3400
02:08:08,790 --> 02:08:12,350
faces also skewed but she changed maybe a

3401
02:08:12,350 --> 02:08:14,790
different person that's possible but she can sing

3402
02:08:14,790 --> 02:08:16,750
I'll tell you that oh yeah she's always

3403
02:08:16,750 --> 02:08:19,130
had a good girl can sing so thank

3404
02:08:19,130 --> 02:08:22,150
you Jeffrey Rhea and again we can't we

3405
02:08:22,150 --> 02:08:24,290
can't nag and rag on anything else because

3406
02:08:24,290 --> 02:08:26,970
it's all gone but no agenda art generator

3407
02:08:26,970 --> 02:08:29,790
commas where you can upload your homemade art

3408
02:08:29,790 --> 02:08:31,930
or your slop as you so yes working

3409
02:08:31,930 --> 02:08:34,250
now yeah it is working now well this

3410
02:08:34,250 --> 02:08:36,730
accepting art it is accepting art I see

3411
02:08:36,730 --> 02:08:39,630
some interesting things already that I'm liking remember

3412
02:08:39,630 --> 02:08:41,610
it's it's not about the tool it's about

3413
02:08:41,610 --> 02:08:43,390
the thought behind it it's about the humor

3414
02:08:43,390 --> 02:08:45,410
can you can you get our attention with

3415
02:08:45,410 --> 02:08:49,730
something funny usually simple is better keep it

3416
02:08:49,730 --> 02:08:52,310
simple that's usually better don't try to fill

3417
02:08:52,310 --> 02:08:54,790
it up with all kinds of little gags

3418
02:08:54,790 --> 02:08:57,610
and things in the background and just keep

3419
02:08:57,610 --> 02:09:00,910
it simple and often and this is a

3420
02:09:00,910 --> 02:09:03,530
big mistake people make is they will put

3421
02:09:03,530 --> 02:09:06,530
a title on underneath the art which makes

3422
02:09:06,530 --> 02:09:09,090
it very funny but if you don't read

3423
02:09:09,090 --> 02:09:11,970
that title you don't understand the art how

3424
02:09:11,970 --> 02:09:14,630
do I doesn't work as standalone no it

3425
02:09:14,630 --> 02:09:17,090
doesn't it doesn't yeah you can't do two

3426
02:09:17,090 --> 02:09:20,070
-part humor you can't have a connective title

3427
02:09:20,070 --> 02:09:23,330
name that makes it funny yeah I'm already

3428
02:09:23,330 --> 02:09:26,390
telling you Darren O'Neill is ahead he's

3429
02:09:26,390 --> 02:09:29,470
already got some zingers here he's got you

3430
02:09:29,470 --> 02:09:31,070
something to make up for a show today

3431
02:09:31,070 --> 02:09:34,990
yeah that's true no agenda art generator commas

3432
02:09:34,990 --> 02:09:36,950
where you can upload your art we love

3433
02:09:36,950 --> 02:09:39,010
it it's it's a lot of fun it's

3434
02:09:39,010 --> 02:09:41,650
at this point it's open to everybody with

3435
02:09:41,650 --> 02:09:43,550
a keyboard you can just go to your

3436
02:09:43,550 --> 02:09:45,850
favorite generator and say make me some podcast

3437
02:09:45,850 --> 02:09:50,810

3511
02:13:13,470 --> 02:13:16,070
in from Samuel Barrett from Vernon Rockwell Connecticut

3512
02:13:16,070 --> 02:13:20,450
$800 and 85 cents which also had a

3513
02:13:20,450 --> 02:13:25,990
note giant memo page which looks like a

3514
02:13:25,990 --> 02:13:31,450
template yeah I TM Jen says a listener

3515
02:13:31,450 --> 02:13:33,450
of the show since Adams first Rogan appearance

3516
02:13:33,450 --> 02:13:36,370
in March 4th 2020 now I'm just told

3517
02:13:36,370 --> 02:13:38,870
so that his first appearance was in October

3518
02:13:38,870 --> 02:13:41,950
of 2019 well there it is I guess

3519
02:13:41,950 --> 02:13:45,490
I was wrong so they came before because

3520
02:13:45,490 --> 02:13:48,290
right after Rogan that's when it when the

3521
02:13:48,290 --> 02:13:52,250
shutdown came two weeks later so World Health

3522
02:13:52,250 --> 02:13:54,490
Organization dropped dead the guy who dropped dead

3523
02:13:54,490 --> 02:13:57,250
in Washington State which recovered first dead guy

3524
02:13:57,250 --> 02:14:00,330
yeah from kovat I think was predating the

3525
02:14:00,330 --> 02:14:04,050
superflu kind of clip well I think but

3526
02:14:04,050 --> 02:14:06,310
the fact that who was calling it that

3527
02:14:06,310 --> 02:14:10,370
way is very sus hey did you see

3528
02:14:10,370 --> 02:14:12,830
by the way what Samuel did in the

3529
02:14:12,830 --> 02:14:20,820
CC Adam Carolla curry no he has Carolla

3530
02:14:20,820 --> 02:14:25,320

3533
02:14:33,760 --> 02:14:35,400
a listener to the show since Adams first

3534
02:14:35,400 --> 02:14:39,460
Rogan appearance on March 4th 2020 I'm ashamed

3535
02:14:39,460 --> 02:14:41,780

3552
02:15:35,480 --> 02:15:37,260
I want to clarify this note to Adam

3553
02:15:37,260 --> 02:15:40,000
don't let John keep Tom Sawyer you into

3554
02:15:40,000 --> 02:15:42,740
calling out the 50s and above no this

3555
02:15:42,740 --> 02:15:44,440
was a decision we made after I had

3556
02:15:44,440 --> 02:15:46,680
been doing it for 17 years and clearly

3557
02:15:46,680 --> 02:15:49,880
getting burned out from it I could barely

3558
02:15:49,880 --> 02:15:52,020
read the names let alone the cities and

3559
02:15:52,020 --> 02:15:55,080
them notes yeah it was an executive decision

3560
02:15:55,080 --> 02:15:57,220
we made and it was not were you

3561
02:15:57,220 --> 02:15:59,540
the one that suggested it's yeah I say

3562
02:15:59,540 --> 02:16:03,300
strongly suggested it and I was I was

3563
02:16:03,300 --> 02:16:04,880
glad to go along with it because you

3564
02:16:04,880 --> 02:16:08,300
yeah that's not Adam do this work for

3565
02:16:08,300 --> 02:16:10,660
a while it's not Tom Sawyer ring at

3566
02:16:10,660 --> 02:16:13,100
all no if I had tricked him into

3567
02:16:13,100 --> 02:16:15,520
it yes but I didn't know I would

3568
02:16:15,520 --> 02:16:18,260
go on my merry way he's just really

3569
02:16:18,260 --> 02:16:21,700
good and I wonder I just wonder how

3570
02:16:21,700 --> 02:16:24,540
many people even understand the term Tom Sawyer

3571
02:16:24,540 --> 02:16:26,580
ring do you think that people have read

3572
02:16:26,580 --> 02:16:28,680
Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn at this point

3573
02:16:28,680 --> 02:16:31,299
in our life no the number of people

3574
02:16:31,299 --> 02:16:33,219
that know what Tom Sawyer ring is is

3575
02:16:33,219 --> 02:16:35,520
probably a man wasn't that a cool track

3576
02:16:35,520 --> 02:16:37,959
20% of the audience maybe 20%

3577
02:16:37,959 --> 02:16:39,600
if we're lucky it was a great great

3578
02:16:39,600 --> 02:16:42,139
track by Rush man those guys at Tom

3579
02:16:42,139 --> 02:16:45,900

3580
02:16:45,900 --> 02:16:50,120

3581
02:16:50,120 --> 02:16:53,480

3582
02:16:53,480 --> 02:16:59,520
cheese mac and cheese everybody they're eating the

3583
02:16:59,520 --> 02:17:07,639

3584
02:17:07,639 --> 02:17:10,500

mouth they're eating the dogs so

3681
02:22:26,410 --> 02:22:28,110
I do want to get this out of

3682
02:22:28,110 --> 02:22:29,270
the way this is that we don't have

3683
02:22:29,270 --> 02:22:32,570
anything on the Minnesota fraud at least I

3684
02:22:32,570 --> 02:22:35,570
don't I do have a comment from walls

3685
02:22:35,570 --> 02:22:37,390
that I think's worth playing is about the

3686
02:22:37,390 --> 02:22:39,790
leering center I guess there is no way

3687
02:22:39,790 --> 02:22:42,630
to put this delicately so basically we're fucked

3688
02:22:42,630 --> 02:22:45,030
they caught us the FBI is looking at

3689
02:22:45,030 --> 02:22:46,590
all of us right now so please tell

3690
02:22:46,590 --> 02:22:49,430
your brothers your husbands well you're from Somalia

3691
02:22:49,430 --> 02:22:51,810
so your brothers are probably your husband's whatever

3692
02:22:51,810 --> 02:22:54,270
just tell all your family members to shut

3693
02:22:54,270 --> 02:22:56,850
it all down right friggin now if you

3694
02:22:56,850 --> 02:22:58,150
have kids put them in a truck and

3695
02:22:58,150 --> 02:22:59,890
take them to the nearest quality leering center

3696
02:22:59,890 --> 02:23:02,110
I know it's supposed to say learning but

3697
02:23:02,110 --> 02:23:04,030
you're also fucking stupid you couldn't even get

3698
02:23:04,030 --> 02:23:06,310
the sign right anyway take them to the

3699
02:23:06,310 --> 02:23:07,850
leering center and tell them to pretend like

3700
02:23:07,850 --> 02:23:10,670
they're learning shit okay it just doesn't work

3701
02:23:10,670 --> 02:23:12,730
in audio if you don't see it it

3702
02:23:12,730 --> 02:23:14,230
has to have the video I think these

3703
02:23:14,230 --> 02:23:17,430
AI things they lose it in audio what

3704
02:23:17,430 --> 02:23:19,350
yeah I think they lose it in audio

3705
02:23:19,350 --> 02:23:22,530
you think that was AI please no please

3706
02:23:22,530 --> 02:23:27,250
yeah I I disagree I think you're telling

3707
02:23:27,250 --> 02:23:29,090
me that's no no that was a okay

3708
02:23:29,090 --> 02:23:32,450
I'm gonna I'm gonna disagree in general I'm

3709
02:23:32,450 --> 02:23:35,370
not disagreeing about that particular that wasn't a

3710
02:23:35,370 --> 02:23:38,050
very good voice the voice was not trained

3711
02:23:38,050 --> 02:23:40,850
properly it didn't sound enough like walls it

3712
02:23:40,850 --> 02:23:43,390
should be exaggerate exaggerate a little bit it

3713
02:23:43,390 --> 02:23:45,330
should be I think this is closer this

3714
02:23:45,330 --> 02:23:48,950
is Liz Warren complaining sorry it wasn't prepared

3715
02:23:48,950 --> 02:23:52,450
for that Liz Warren trans community is not

3716
02:23:52,450 --> 02:23:55,630
a violent community we are a peaceful people

3717
02:23:55,630 --> 02:24:00,610
I myself am trans I'm trans race I

3718
02:24:00,610 --> 02:24:04,030
identify as a Native American from the tribe

3719
02:24:04,030 --> 02:24:07,710
of retard ho descendants of the Navajo and

3720
02:24:07,710 --> 02:24:11,790
the stupid house and we are a peaceful

3721
02:24:11,790 --> 02:24:17,970
people okay you know the problem is you

3722
02:24:17,970 --> 02:24:20,950
don't see what's going on the background you

3723
02:24:20,950 --> 02:24:24,310
don't see that it's like and and and

3724
02:24:24,310 --> 02:24:27,350
for some reason people can't write something funny

3725
02:24:27,350 --> 02:24:29,490
up they have to put cuss words in

3726
02:24:29,490 --> 02:24:31,850
there and I'm a retard you know it's

3727
02:24:31,850 --> 02:24:34,690
like it's it's old I guess put a

3728
02:24:34,690 --> 02:24:39,170
bikini on her that would be funnier just

3729
02:24:39,170 --> 02:24:41,750
you know no I just thought it was

3730
02:24:41,750 --> 02:24:45,630
worth it I'm underwhelmed I'm just yeah you're

3731
02:24:45,630 --> 02:24:47,770
picky you have better ears than most people

3732
02:24:47,770 --> 02:24:50,070
too but that I thought the Warren voice

3733
02:24:50,070 --> 02:24:53,270
sounded very close I got a big report

3734
02:24:53,270 --> 02:24:55,690
out of Germany this is right out of

3735
02:24:55,690 --> 02:24:58,230
a movie people it's been described as one

3736
02:24:58,230 --> 02:25:00,950
of the biggest heists in German history investigators

3737
02:25:00,950 --> 02:25:03,470

3739
02:25:06,330 --> 02:25:07,910
of euros from a bank in the western

3740
02:25:07,910 --> 02:25:12,010
city of Gelsenkirchen police believe a large drill

3741
02:25:12,010 --> 02:25:14,030
was used to break through a thick basement

3742
02:25:14,030 --> 02:25:17,490
wall to reach their loot hundreds of furious

3743
02:25:17,490 --> 02:25:21,670
customers descend on their bank terrified that everything

3744
02:25:21,670 --> 02:25:24,510
they own has vanished I have entrusted and

3745
02:25:24,510 --> 02:25:27,070
invested all my savings here I didn't sleep

3746
02:25:27,070 --> 02:25:28,570
last night they are not giving us any

3747
02:25:28,570 --> 02:25:31,870
information emergency services discovered the break-in on

3748
02:25:31,870 --> 02:25:34,830
Monday morning after the fire alarm went off

3749
02:25:34,830 --> 02:25:38,210
firefighters and police officers searched the bank for

3750
02:25:38,210 --> 02:25:41,570
a possible fire but instead of flames they

3751
02:25:41,570 --> 02:25:43,890
found a hole in the basement wall and

3752
02:25:43,890 --> 02:25:48,170
a ransacked vault containing cash gold and jewelry

3753
02:25:48,170 --> 02:25:52,330
worth tens of millions of euros if someone

3754
02:25:52,330 --> 02:25:54,170
had a safety deposit box there's a high

3755
02:25:54,170 --> 02:25:56,550
probability that it was broken into because 90

3756
02:25:56,550 --> 02:25:59,090
% of them have some victims fear their

3757
02:25:59,090 --> 02:26:01,730
losses may exceed the insured value of their

3758
02:26:01,730 --> 02:26:04,570
boxes I fear my mother's gold coin is

3759
02:26:04,570 --> 02:26:09,310
gone she passed away in 1988 my grandmother's

3760
02:26:09,310 --> 02:26:12,290
gold bracelets which I hoped would secure my

3761
02:26:12,290 --> 02:26:16,970
daughter's future investigators are still piecing together how

3762
02:26:16,970 --> 02:26:19,770
it all happened but they believe the burglars

3763
02:26:19,770 --> 02:26:22,870
used a nearby parking garage to gain access

3764
02:26:22,870 --> 02:26:26,190
to the bank police say the evidence points

3765
02:26:26,190 --> 02:26:29,890
to a highly organized operation I would definitely

3766
02:26:29,890 --> 02:26:32,630
say this is quite spectacular it is really

3767
02:26:32,630 --> 02:26:35,090
unique compared to anything I've ever seen heard

3768
02:26:35,090 --> 02:26:37,210
or read I have never heard of any

3769
02:26:37,210 --> 02:26:39,830
similar case except perhaps on TV this was

3770
02:26:39,830 --> 02:26:42,870
like an Ocean's 11 they drilled this huge

3771
02:26:42,870 --> 02:26:45,830
hole through that you know like a two

3772
02:26:45,830 --> 02:26:49,670
-foot wall how old-school is that yeah

3773
02:26:49,670 --> 02:26:51,550
that's pretty good you have to have that

3774
02:26:51,550 --> 02:26:55,930
takes a lot of planning yeah and who

3775
02:26:55,930 --> 02:26:58,310
puts their gold coin in a vault in

3776
02:26:58,310 --> 02:27:02,710
the bank anymore that doesn't sound like you

3777
02:27:02,710 --> 02:27:05,430
said she said one gold coin and my

3778
02:27:05,430 --> 02:27:07,170
one do you know I have a very

3779
02:27:07,170 --> 02:27:10,070
small tract of land it's a little parcel

3780
02:27:10,070 --> 02:27:13,130
my parcel of land is in the and

3781
02:27:13,130 --> 02:27:15,070
then cash why would you put cash in

3782
02:27:15,070 --> 02:27:17,810
a safe deposit box yeah put it in

3783
02:27:17,810 --> 02:27:20,230
your mattress like normal people that's what you

3784
02:27:20,230 --> 02:27:22,130
do or you maybe put it in the

3785
02:27:22,130 --> 02:27:24,730
bank where it's insured yeah the big thing

3786
02:27:24,730 --> 02:27:27,230
now is people you know come in and

3787
02:27:27,230 --> 02:27:28,770
rouse you at home and say give me

3788
02:27:28,770 --> 02:27:32,210
a Bitcoin key that's the big one now

3789
02:27:32,910 --> 02:27:35,970
kidnapping people everywhere for it first you have

3790
02:27:35,970 --> 02:27:38,210
to know that somebody has a Bitcoin key

3791
02:27:38,210 --> 02:27:40,210
well if you know how would they know

3792
02:27:40,210 --> 02:27:42,910
well if you're the CEO of an exchange

3793
02:27:42,910 --> 02:27:46,470
or some or if you're boastful now of

3794
02:27:46,470 --> 02:27:49,090
course the way to go is two or

3795
02:27:49,090 --> 02:27:50,890
three multi-sig so I can give you

3796
02:27:50,890 --> 02:27:52,890
my key without the other two you can

3797
02:27:52,890 --> 02:27:54,270
or at least one of the other two

3798
02:27:54,270 --> 02:27:56,170
you can't get to it you've just given

3799
02:27:56,170 --> 02:27:58,510
it away well no I'm not giving nothing

3800
02:27:58,510 --> 02:28:00,850
away yeah you are you just told people

3801
02:28:00,850 --> 02:28:03,370
everybody out there every criminal listens to this

3802
02:28:03,370 --> 02:28:06,110
show and there's probably more than one you've

3803
02:28:06,110 --> 02:28:08,070
just told me there's a three key system

3804
02:28:08,070 --> 02:28:09,770
that you use and now they're gonna have

3805
02:28:09,770 --> 02:28:11,110
to beat it out of you no but

3806
02:28:11,110 --> 02:28:12,690
I don't have the other two the other

3807
02:28:12,690 --> 02:28:14,730
two are not in my possession that's the

3808
02:28:14,730 --> 02:28:16,930
beauty of it oh where are they with

3809
02:28:16,930 --> 02:28:21,410
a trust company no no oh yeah that's

3810
02:28:21,410 --> 02:28:23,290
that is the only way we cover them

3811
02:28:23,290 --> 02:28:25,470
so you can't be beaten into submission so

3812
02:28:25,470 --> 02:28:27,150
you get well they can be forced they

3813
02:28:27,150 --> 02:28:28,910
can beat me but they're not gonna get

3814
02:28:28,910 --> 02:28:34,030
my Bitcoin but come and take it suckers

3815
02:28:34,030 --> 02:28:39,710

02:28:39,710 --> 02:28:43,230

02:28:48,150 --> 02:28:50,990
women I just I'm sorry I'm gonna try

3820
02:28:50,990 --> 02:28:53,270
to I'm weaning myself off is a question

3821
02:28:53,270 --> 02:28:55,670
thank you here's a question have you already

3822
02:28:55,670 --> 02:28:58,870
posted these on Twitter because I see some

3823
02:28:58,870 --> 02:29:00,770
I mean your time you're in my timeline

3824
02:29:00,770 --> 02:29:03,710
now all the time and that and it's

3825
02:29:03,710 --> 02:29:05,430
like it ruins it because then I see

3826
02:29:05,430 --> 02:29:08,250
I see these clips on an excellent on

3827
02:29:08,250 --> 02:29:10,050
the you play him on the show I

3828
02:29:10,050 --> 02:29:14,230
you need to segregate that stuff I'm going

3829
02:29:14,230 --> 02:29:16,590
to do this why are you giving valuable

3830
02:29:16,590 --> 02:29:20,690
show material to Elon Musk I'm I'm not

3831
02:29:20,690 --> 02:29:24,230
gonna argue with your point okay let's start

3832
02:29:24,230 --> 02:29:27,110
with the box checker I always get asked

3833
02:29:27,110 --> 02:29:28,930
if I want children and the short answer

3834
02:29:28,930 --> 02:29:31,010
is maybe the long answer is I will

3835
02:29:31,010 --> 02:29:32,970
not be having kids with a man unless

3836
02:29:32,970 --> 02:29:34,590
he could check off these boxes for me

3837
02:29:34,590 --> 02:29:37,290
for starters the man will absolutely have to

3838
02:29:37,290 --> 02:29:39,530
be my husband I would never give a

3839
02:29:39,530 --> 02:29:41,670
man a baby without the biggest rock on

3840
02:29:41,670 --> 02:29:45,110
my finger the second box would be a

3841
02:29:45,110 --> 02:29:47,230
push present is a non-negotiable for me

3842
02:29:47,230 --> 02:29:52,590
I want either a car or house it's

3843
02:29:52,590 --> 02:29:55,150
a non-negotiable also assuming the man I

3844
02:29:55,150 --> 02:29:58,490
will be with would be tatted so he

3845
02:29:58,490 --> 02:30:00,570
would have to get a tattoo of my

3846
02:30:00,570 --> 02:30:02,750
face on his stomach because it's a body

3847
02:30:02,750 --> 02:30:04,590
for a body my body's gonna change forever

3848
02:30:04,590 --> 02:30:10,230
so should his third box would be that

3849
02:30:10,230 --> 02:30:12,730
I need a house cleaner and then the

3850
02:30:12,730 --> 02:30:14,590
fourth box would be that I need a

3851
02:30:14,590 --> 02:30:17,630
full time nanny I already know who the

3852
02:30:17,630 --> 02:30:19,170
nanny would be it would be a family

3853
02:30:19,170 --> 02:30:23,470
member but I want that family member to

3854
02:30:23,470 --> 02:30:25,830
be very well compensated for their time and

3855
02:30:25,830 --> 02:30:30,210
energy so yeah remember before you type some

3856
02:30:30,210 --> 02:30:32,610
nasty ass shit that these are my requirements

3857
02:30:32,610 --> 02:30:35,530
right you don't have to have any requirements

3858
02:30:35,530 --> 02:30:37,270
if you just want to have a baby

3859
02:30:37,270 --> 02:30:39,990
for the free or if you just want

3860
02:30:39,990 --> 02:30:41,990
to be a man that wants to give

3861
02:30:41,990 --> 02:30:43,470
a woman a baby and you want to

3862
02:30:43,470 --> 02:30:45,750
do nothing else but spread your seed and

3863
02:30:45,750 --> 02:30:48,310
have nothing else to offer the woman then

3864
02:30:48,310 --> 02:30:50,790
you know live your life this is my

3865
02:30:50,790 --> 02:30:54,390
life and I will not be changing and

3866
02:30:54,390 --> 02:30:59,530
sacrificing my whole entire life without these boxes

3867
02:30:59,530 --> 02:31:04,710
being checked off okay okay well first of

3868
02:31:04,710 --> 02:31:06,570
all I think the correct term for a

3869
02:31:06,570 --> 02:31:09,010
woman like this is not a box checker

3870
02:31:09,010 --> 02:31:13,950
but a box Fox second although this is

3871
02:31:13,950 --> 02:31:17,570
somewhat exaggerated this is in fact the problem

3872
02:31:17,570 --> 02:31:21,030
with many women as I've ever heard from

3873
02:31:21,030 --> 02:31:23,730
many young men that they do have these

3874
02:31:23,730 --> 02:31:27,070
boxes and it's the sixes typically six feet

3875
02:31:27,070 --> 02:31:31,570
tall six-pack abs six six-figure salary

3876
02:31:31,570 --> 02:31:37,770
etc etc and I think that the the

3877
02:31:37,770 --> 02:31:42,730
woke Democrat liberal culture that we are weaseling

3878
02:31:42,730 --> 02:31:46,470
our way out of has ruined them yeah

3879
02:31:46,470 --> 02:31:48,930
I think so too they're ruined so it's

3880
02:31:48,930 --> 02:31:51,410
a ruined person that's yeah that's actually very

3881
02:31:51,410 --> 02:31:54,470
sad I'm very sad for her but I

3882
02:31:54,470 --> 02:31:58,830
believe that to be reasonably authentic oh thank

3883
02:31:58,830 --> 02:32:00,090
you that's one of the few clips that

3884
02:32:00,090 --> 02:32:02,310
you thought were real yeah I think it

3885
02:32:02,310 --> 02:32:04,570
was authentic and I'm not sorry for her

3886
02:32:04,570 --> 02:32:07,350
I'm just I think she's a sickening person

3887
02:32:07,350 --> 02:32:09,470
yeah but but I have love for everybody

3888
02:32:09,470 --> 02:32:13,930
John yeah yeah I do even my enemies

3889
02:32:13,930 --> 02:32:17,390
here is the another one this is a

3890
02:32:17,390 --> 02:32:19,930
now this one is interesting because this this

3891
02:32:19,930 --> 02:32:22,950
is a another delusional woman and and she

3892
02:32:22,950 --> 02:32:25,650
this has got a twist in it which

3893
02:32:25,650 --> 02:32:29,110
was the really took me aback and the

3894
02:32:29,110 --> 02:32:30,650
only reason I'm playing it is for the

3895
02:32:30,650 --> 02:32:33,290
little twist at the end but I find

3896
02:32:33,290 --> 02:32:36,370
really fucking comical me and all my liberal

3897
02:32:36,370 --> 02:32:40,870
friends want to be traditional housewives well not

3898
02:32:40,870 --> 02:32:42,770
all of us but most of us but

3899
02:32:42,770 --> 02:32:44,670
the problem is we don't like Republican men

3900
02:32:44,670 --> 02:32:46,750
because they don't have the same sense of

3901
02:32:46,750 --> 02:32:49,410
justice and morality that we do because we

3902
02:32:49,410 --> 02:32:52,270
care for every human being and the liberal

3903
02:32:52,270 --> 02:32:54,690
men don't believe in exploiting themselves for labor

3904
02:32:54,690 --> 02:32:56,510
so like we have to have an equal

3905
02:32:56,510 --> 02:33:00,130
household because the only one ones that bust

3906
02:33:00,130 --> 02:33:03,870
their ass and make enough money to support

3907
02:33:03,870 --> 02:33:07,470
a stay-at-home mom wife whatever are

3908
02:33:07,470 --> 02:33:09,710
the Republican men because they will exploit the

3909
02:33:09,710 --> 02:33:13,710
shit out of themselves for money then they're

3910
02:33:13,710 --> 02:33:15,350
miserable and burn out and take it out

3911
02:33:15,350 --> 02:33:17,710
on everyone around them and refuse to take

3912
02:33:17,710 --> 02:33:20,890
meds so it's like yeah I'd rather be

3913
02:33:20,890 --> 02:33:24,670
alone well your wish is granted young lady

3914
02:33:24,670 --> 02:33:27,710
yeah she'll be alone but what is this

3915
02:33:27,710 --> 02:33:29,710
thing that they get all you know they

3916
02:33:29,710 --> 02:33:32,190
they have issues because they're working too hard

3917
02:33:32,190 --> 02:33:33,450
and they have to and they were and

3918
02:33:33,450 --> 02:33:37,350
they refuse to take meds was the kicker

3919
02:33:37,350 --> 02:33:40,870
what is wrong with these people oh they

3920
02:33:40,870 --> 02:33:42,770
refuse I'm not gonna run off of the

3921
02:33:42,770 --> 02:33:47,230
Republican men they refuse to take meds everybody's

3922
02:33:47,230 --> 02:33:51,430
on meds man obviously on meds but I

3923
02:33:51,430 --> 02:33:53,630
would say nine out of ten of the

3924
02:33:53,630 --> 02:33:55,510
tick-tock women you play are on meds

3925
02:33:55,510 --> 02:33:59,690
you have no idea and it's all it's

3926
02:33:59,690 --> 02:34:02,210
all SSRIs all of them you know what

3927
02:34:02,210 --> 02:34:04,810
I'm what I'm kind of worried about or

3928
02:34:04,810 --> 02:34:10,290
this is a quick conversation so if President

3929
02:34:10,290 --> 02:34:12,210
Trump pulls off what he's trying to pull

3930
02:34:12,210 --> 02:34:16,530
off and there will be a lot of

3931
02:34:16,530 --> 02:34:23,870
jobs but these will be trade jobs do

3932
02:34:23,870 --> 02:34:27,430
you think that there will be enough young

3933
02:34:27,430 --> 02:34:29,690
people who who actually want to do this

3934
02:34:29,690 --> 02:34:33,390
who want to retool reschool learn how to

3935
02:34:33,390 --> 02:34:36,370
do these things can we actually go back

3936
02:34:36,370 --> 02:34:40,510
to a productive a production type economy with

3937
02:34:40,510 --> 02:34:42,910
the type of people we have now do

3938
02:34:42,910 --> 02:34:44,910
you think the the Zed's will do it

3939
02:34:44,910 --> 02:34:50,580
or have they been completely ruined I think

3940
02:34:50,580 --> 02:34:53,560
they can be brainwashed into doing it well

3941
02:34:53,560 --> 02:34:59,020
really I mean it just seems that at

3942
02:34:59,020 --> 02:35:01,020
some point you've just got to be sick

3943
02:35:01,020 --> 02:35:04,080
of a board the boring life of sitting

3944
02:35:04,080 --> 02:35:08,640
behind a PlayStation or not having a girlfriend

3945
02:35:08,640 --> 02:35:10,720
or not having anything going on and you're

3946
02:35:10,720 --> 02:35:13,380
getting old and by old I mean 30

3947
02:35:16,780 --> 02:35:18,520
and maybe you can learn how to be

3948
02:35:18,520 --> 02:35:20,220
a plumber I mean it's I think people

3949
02:35:20,220 --> 02:35:22,220
that are already 30 it may be too

3950
02:35:22,220 --> 02:35:24,420
late for them but people are coming up

3951
02:35:24,420 --> 02:35:27,840
they look at what's ahead and they see

3952
02:35:27,840 --> 02:35:29,880
the opportunity for them not to go that

3953
02:35:29,880 --> 02:35:32,700
way I hope either the 40 year old

3954
02:35:32,700 --> 02:35:34,600
guy living in the house still living at

3955
02:35:34,600 --> 02:35:36,780
home yeah I hope 40 year old virgin

3956
02:35:36,780 --> 02:35:41,460
basically yeah I hope so we'll find out

3957
02:35:41,460 --> 02:35:44,640
I hope the people take advantage of the

3958
02:35:44,640 --> 02:35:47,560
opportunity because it's gonna be good money I

3959
02:35:47,560 --> 02:35:49,760
really there's gonna be good paying union jobs

3960
02:35:49,760 --> 02:35:51,940
it's gonna be good money you can already

3961
02:35:51,940 --> 02:35:53,240
see it happening I think it's what is

3962
02:35:53,240 --> 02:35:56,940
it apprenticeships gov they're doing a million apprenticeships

3963
02:35:56,940 --> 02:35:59,280
but no no one talks about it no

3964
02:35:59,280 --> 02:36:01,100
one ever says hey there's some opportunities out

3965
02:36:01,100 --> 02:36:02,760
there you should probably jump in on that

3966
02:36:02,760 --> 02:36:08,590
get your hands dirty oh I've been looking

3967
02:36:08,590 --> 02:36:10,950
at this Fuentes on Owens AJ clip for

3968
02:36:10,950 --> 02:36:12,810
three hours I'd love to know what that

3969
02:36:12,810 --> 02:36:17,510
is before we just a clip a snippet

3970
02:36:17,510 --> 02:36:20,430
from tell me it's not he's not AI

3971
02:36:20,430 --> 02:36:23,470
John it's not AI this was a snippet

3972
02:36:23,470 --> 02:36:27,610
of Fuentes was on Alex Jones recently oh

3973
02:36:27,610 --> 02:36:30,570
I missed it yeah you did and they

3974
02:36:30,570 --> 02:36:33,210
Alex Jones just a love fest between these

3975
02:36:33,210 --> 02:36:35,750
two I mean they're genuinely like each other

3976
02:36:35,750 --> 02:36:38,130
it seems unlike Tucker I like him and

3977
02:36:38,130 --> 02:36:40,670
like me kids got he's got gusto he

3978
02:36:40,670 --> 02:36:42,930

3979
02:36:42,930 --> 02:36:48,630
bless he's all against them yeah you got

3980
02:36:48,630 --> 02:36:50,330
it you nailed it I nailed it come

3981
02:36:50,330 --> 02:36:52,930
on to work so so they get along

3982
02:36:52,930 --> 02:36:55,610
but so but Fuentes drops this little bomb

3983
02:36:55,610 --> 02:36:58,790
about Candace and you know he does understand

3984
02:36:58,790 --> 02:37:00,310
that she comes you know that she's married

3985
02:37:00,310 --> 02:37:03,130
a character who's part of the British royal

3986
02:37:03,130 --> 02:37:05,890
nexus and all the rest but she throws

3987
02:37:05,890 --> 02:37:08,590
in another character I never knew anything about

3988
02:37:08,590 --> 02:37:11,170
specifically and he puts it in there as

3989
02:37:11,170 --> 02:37:15,390
a quizzical situation that he's doesn't understand why

3990
02:37:15,390 --> 02:37:18,030
people are talking about one thing or another

3991
02:37:18,030 --> 02:37:19,710
about Candace but they never bring this guy

3992
02:37:19,710 --> 02:37:21,610
up and this is the guy this guy

3993
02:37:21,610 --> 02:37:23,970
who's been supporting her John Mappin I don't

3994
02:37:23,970 --> 02:37:26,650
know why nobody's talking about John Mappin the

3995
02:37:26,650 --> 02:37:30,450
Scientologist the heir to the jeweler that creates

3996
02:37:30,450 --> 02:37:32,590
the crown jewels for the British royal family

3997
02:37:32,590 --> 02:37:35,470
he allegedly introduced her and her husband he's

3998
02:37:35,470 --> 02:37:37,770
been so supportive she retweets him he's writing

3999
02:37:37,770 --> 02:37:39,830
letters to her he was best friends with

4000
02:37:39,830 --> 02:37:41,950
Charlie Kirk his wife is from Russia I

4001
02:37:41,950 --> 02:37:43,830
don't know why nobody's talking about that guy

4002
02:37:43,830 --> 02:37:46,130
no one's talking about George Farmer they all

4003
02:37:46,130 --> 02:37:48,610
met through turning point UK so you have

4004
02:37:48,610 --> 02:37:51,550
turning point USA she met her husband through

4005
02:37:51,550 --> 02:37:53,650
turning point UK she made a bag off

4006
02:37:53,650 --> 02:37:55,830
of turning point USA and turning point UK

4007
02:37:55,830 --> 02:37:59,010
so there's definitely something suspicious going on there

4008
02:37:59,010 --> 02:38:01,370
maybe a foreign intelligence play of its own

4009
02:38:01,370 --> 02:38:04,310
oh he's finally catching on to the North

4010
02:38:04,310 --> 02:38:06,790
Sea Nexus oh that's good we need him

4011
02:38:06,790 --> 02:38:09,030
to be talking about that that's good yeah

4012
02:38:09,030 --> 02:38:12,630
I know about this John Mappin guy Mappin

4013
02:38:12,630 --> 02:38:15,150
m-a-p-p-i-n John Mappin

4014
02:38:15,150 --> 02:38:19,770
a globalist you know it's interesting Tina and

4015
02:38:19,770 --> 02:38:24,210
I've been watching the series Victoria on Netflix

4016
02:38:24,210 --> 02:38:28,970
which is about Queen Victoria who ascended to

4017
02:38:28,970 --> 02:38:30,810
the throne when she was I think 18

4018
02:38:30,810 --> 02:38:35,530
years old and I'm a virgin Queen she

4019
02:38:35,530 --> 02:38:37,970
was the Virgin Queen yes and of course

4020
02:38:37,970 --> 02:38:40,670
Albert's the and they're all Germans which is

4021
02:38:40,670 --> 02:38:43,990
great because she came from Coburg Albert came

4022
02:38:43,990 --> 02:38:45,730
from they're all they're all Germans the whole

4023
02:38:45,730 --> 02:38:48,410
they just changed their name later Windsor from

4024
02:38:48,410 --> 02:38:51,150
Windsor but it's and it's I think it's

4025
02:38:51,150 --> 02:38:53,710
a very accurate portrayal of those times this

4026
02:38:53,710 --> 02:38:59,010
is 1800s and you just see the rich

4027
02:38:59,010 --> 02:39:01,830
the riches that they they got from the

4028
02:39:01,830 --> 02:39:05,730
entire British Empire and how the British people

4029
02:39:05,730 --> 02:39:08,770
suffered under them even though it's a it's

4030
02:39:08,770 --> 02:39:11,210
a love story and it's all beautiful the

4031
02:39:11,210 --> 02:39:16,530
costumes are phenomenal but the the British royalty

4032
02:39:16,530 --> 02:39:18,850
do not give a hoot about the people

4033
02:39:18,850 --> 02:39:22,730
not for one they never have ever they

4034
02:39:22,730 --> 02:39:25,990
just living in squalor among rats and eating

4035
02:39:25,990 --> 02:39:29,850
stale bread and they got cholera Indian cholera

4036
02:39:29,850 --> 02:39:32,530
and just they don't care at all about

4037
02:39:32,530 --> 02:39:35,890
them it's amazing that people still want to

4038
02:39:35,890 --> 02:39:37,130
live there at all because you know it's

4039
02:39:37,130 --> 02:39:39,690
still the same with the House of Lords

4040
02:39:39,690 --> 02:39:43,650
they're just no good can I just state

4041
02:39:43,650 --> 02:39:46,270
that they're just no good I don't the

4042
02:39:46,270 --> 02:39:48,790
Brits I know I live there for a

4043
02:39:48,790 --> 02:39:50,970
couple for five years I like their humor

4044
02:39:50,970 --> 02:39:53,510
but they don't care about plebs they really

4045
02:39:53,510 --> 02:39:56,430
really don't don't give a rat's ass about

4046
02:39:56,430 --> 02:40:01,030
him your thoughts I'm not gonna disagree I

4047
02:40:01,030 --> 02:40:04,210
mean I've I had I worked there I

4048
02:40:04,210 --> 02:40:08,530
went twice a year to London and the

4049
02:40:08,530 --> 02:40:10,570
rest of the UK for about a decade

4050
02:40:10,570 --> 02:40:12,950
so I've been there enough to find my

4051
02:40:12,950 --> 02:40:17,010
way around and drive which is always amusing

4052
02:40:17,010 --> 02:40:19,390
especially on the roundabouts when you do it

4053
02:40:19,390 --> 02:40:21,690
for the first time the roundabouts they're very

4054
02:40:21,690 --> 02:40:23,450
the roundabouts are a little frightening but the

4055
02:40:23,450 --> 02:40:25,610
rest of it's pretty easy when you go

4056
02:40:25,610 --> 02:40:29,630
in against traffic on the roundabout I've done

4057
02:40:29,630 --> 02:40:31,830
that I've done that the roundabouts are a

4058
02:40:31,830 --> 02:40:34,050
rough go but and there's lots of them

4059
02:40:34,050 --> 02:40:40,030
but but I found that the there are

4060
02:40:40,030 --> 02:40:43,190
royalists that really are just crazy about the

4061
02:40:43,190 --> 02:40:44,650
Royals and I think it's very important to

4062
02:40:44,650 --> 02:40:47,030
have them and there's people that hate the

4063
02:40:47,030 --> 02:40:50,010
Royals and always considered like communists when they're

4064
02:40:50,010 --> 02:40:53,750
not it's I really can't put my finger

4065
02:40:53,750 --> 02:40:56,570
on whether I I mean I enjoy going

4066
02:40:56,570 --> 02:40:59,730
there I I can I can blend in

4067
02:40:59,730 --> 02:41:04,350
as best I can is anywhere and there's

4068
02:41:04,350 --> 02:41:08,390
a pale white guy you just eat some

4069
02:41:08,390 --> 02:41:10,030
fish and chips or a curry and you're

4070
02:41:10,030 --> 02:41:15,900
good to go but more did we do

4071
02:41:15,900 --> 02:41:18,300
research the more it's obvious that the British

4072
02:41:18,300 --> 02:41:21,640
monarchy is stronger than we think it is

4073
02:41:21,640 --> 02:41:23,420
that we're convinced they're they tried as they've

4074
02:41:23,420 --> 02:41:28,080
sold the operation suckered everybody into believing everybody

4075
02:41:28,080 --> 02:41:29,840
but if you started looking at their total

4076
02:41:29,840 --> 02:41:33,380
net worth which is who knows it's outrageous

4077
02:41:33,380 --> 02:41:36,320
you think Elon Musk is rich no no

4078
02:41:36,320 --> 02:41:37,980
you look at the net worth of these

4079
02:41:37,980 --> 02:41:40,220
guys in the buildings and things that they

4080
02:41:40,220 --> 02:41:42,060
own all over the place where this where

4081
02:41:42,060 --> 02:41:44,220
what's his name Andrews kicked out of the

4082
02:41:44,220 --> 02:41:46,580
lodge which was a huge mansion behind Windsor

4083
02:41:46,580 --> 02:41:48,700
Castle you had to go to another mansion

4084
02:41:48,700 --> 02:41:51,080
someplace else yes he used his old name

4085
02:41:51,080 --> 02:41:53,720
Vaughn was it Mountbatten or whatever he's not

4086
02:41:53,720 --> 02:41:57,340
whatever it is but who cares but and

4087
02:41:57,340 --> 02:42:01,020
so he's yeah he's down one made Victoria

4088

Madeira in Portugal that was in Spain I

4214
02:48:06,220 --> 02:48:07,640
thought but I think he is in Portugal

4215
02:48:07,640 --> 02:48:09,560
I thought it was from if I recall

4216
02:48:09,560 --> 02:48:12,140
he was all your memories and I thought

4217
02:48:12,140 --> 02:48:13,660
it was in Madeira but it could be

4218
02:48:13,660 --> 02:48:15,880

02:48:19,000 --> 02:48:21,120
show I didn't know that Madeira was such

4221
02:48:21,120 --> 02:48:23,240
a big big deal for the Brits I

4222
02:48:23,240 --> 02:48:24,920
think it was a bigger deal back then

4223
02:48:24,920 --> 02:48:27,080
I mean it's still the same product and

4224
02:48:27,080 --> 02:48:29,780

It's probably a Violetas.

4299
02:51:40,960 --> 02:51:42,700
You should have Steve send someone to pick

4300
02:51:42,700 --> 02:51:44,060
you up I think you deserve a car

4301
02:51:44,060 --> 02:51:45,060
service at this point.

4302
02:51:45,280 --> 02:51:46,640
I don't want a car service.

4303
02:51:46,640 --> 02:51:47,220

4307
02:51:51,680 --> 02:51:52,620
Stop and pick up a kitten.

4308
02:51:56,330 --> 02:51:58,750
Yes how somehow I get I get a

4309
02:51:58,750 --> 02:52:00,790
very fuzzy picture of you picking up a

4310
02:52:00,790 --> 02:52:01,090
kitten.

4311
02:52:02,630 --> 02:52:04,310
NoahJennerMeetups.com where you can find all the

4312
02:52:04,310 --> 02:52:06,250
information about the meetups I just mentioned and

4313
02:52:06,250 --> 02:52:07,990
many more as they go off into the

4314
02:52:07,990 --> 02:52:11,390
future and you can always submit your own

4315
02:52:11,390 --> 02:52:12,950
meetups if you want to that's the beauty

4316
02:52:12,950 --> 02:52:14,710
of it is that you can set up

4317
02:52:14,710 --> 02:52:17,250
your own meetup it's not like like a

4318
02:52:17,250 --> 02:52:19,690
TEDx we have to have permission or anything

4319
02:52:19,690 --> 02:52:21,690
we do recommend you bring two heads of

4320
02:52:21,690 --> 02:52:23,270
ours on sticks and that's always a good

4321
02:52:23,270 --> 02:52:26,470
idea we always recommend something like a raffle

4322
02:52:26,470 --> 02:52:28,370
or a lottery just send in a donation

4323
02:52:28,370 --> 02:52:31,170
give somebody an executive or associate executive producership

4324
02:52:31,170 --> 02:52:33,710
but above all just go to meet other

4325
02:52:33,710 --> 02:52:36,890
people who all are part of GetMoNation meet

4326
02:52:36,890 --> 02:52:39,470

every newspaper in the entire world is a

4401
02:56:30,020 --> 02:56:32,440
this site but are they all behind a

4402
02:56:32,440 --> 02:56:35,860
paywall no well I mean if the individual

4403
02:56:35,860 --> 02:56:38,000
newspapers behind a pair like the Wall Street

4404
02:56:38,000 --> 02:56:40,640
Journal yeah there's not much but most of

4405
02:56:40,640 --> 02:56:43,340
them aren't and they're worldwide and they and

4406
02:56:43,340 --> 02:56:44,960
it tells you if they're in English or

4407
02:56:44,960 --> 02:56:46,500
what language it is so you get these

4408
02:56:46,500 --> 02:56:49,500
English-speaking newspapers in different parts of the

4409
02:56:49,500 --> 02:56:51,400
world and you get all kinds of this

4410
02:56:51,400 --> 02:56:54,740
is a very valuable site for you researchers

4411
02:56:54,740 --> 02:56:58,560
out there especially you kids in college that

4412
02:56:58,560 --> 02:57:00,820
want to have a couple some some references

4413
02:57:00,820 --> 02:57:03,040
that are a little up seem obscure but

4414
02:57:03,040 --> 02:57:05,200
you nailed them from going on to this

4415
02:57:05,200 --> 02:57:08,000
site well my newspapers.com I'm looking at

4416
02:57:08,000 --> 02:57:12,040
the Dutch newspapers this is good this is

4417
02:57:12,040 --> 02:57:13,600
wow this is I'm now a lot of

4418
02:57:13,600 --> 02:57:16,720
these are syndicated so they're owned by one

4419
02:57:16,720 --> 02:57:20,180
entity but still this is this is quite

4420
02:57:20,180 --> 02:57:25,160
interesting huh yeah who maintains the site do

4421
02:57:25,160 --> 02:57:26,420
they make any money off of it they

4422
02:57:26,420 --> 02:57:30,280
got any ads I can't I can't see

4423
02:57:30,280 --> 02:57:31,700
it making any money it must be a

4424
02:57:31,700 --> 02:57:34,240
front for some Intel agency that issues it

4425
02:57:34,240 --> 02:57:37,900
themselves also use it but hey since we

4426
02:57:37,900 --> 02:57:39,000
got it you might as well just let

4427
02:57:39,000 --> 02:57:40,420
the public use it oh that's I don't

4428
02:57:40,420 --> 02:57:42,140
know that's pretty good by the way one

4429
02:57:42,140 --> 02:57:45,480
of our producers sent me a note that

4430
02:57:45,480 --> 02:57:50,540
open AI is testing ads I know they

4431
02:57:50,540 --> 02:57:53,540
are yeah and if you like the ad

4432
02:57:53,540 --> 02:57:55,240
you're supposed to shake your phone to send

4433
02:57:55,240 --> 02:57:58,120
