The FBI has warned police stations across california that Iran is preparing
aspiring to engage in drone strikes off of the coast of california to california
and the immediate response from a lot of the anti-interventionist people is that okay this is propaganda they're trying to freak people out but I guess in essence if you believe the FBI then Iran is planning on bombing california so okay seems like a stretch but I think we should still take it seriously and take a look at what they're talking about at the same time it's been reported that Iran is
mining the straight of hormones and a US tanker a US-owned tanker has been bombed so while Trump at the same time is saying we've won the war a lot of stuff is still going on and then there's another interesting story that apparently like the new supreme leader didn't show up for like a big ceremony and everyone was like ha what a loser I can't believe it it show up meanwhile the rumors are that he's
“just dead maybe that's why he didn't show up and then of course my friends we have”
the save act corny in taxes apparently backing off the filibuster issue saying do whatever you get to do to get the save act passed and I think if anything at all
proves that congress is fake it's that everybody in this country basically wants
the save act to pass it is wildly popular among democrat voters independence republicans basically everybody else but for some reason democrat politicians are saying no they're not gonna pass it and John Thune is like sorry we just can't get it done because it seems like unfortunately everything is just fake and and you know what else so we're talking about that we got a bunch more to talk

“do I'm I think now I could say I'm just a full-time comedian formerly political”
commentator formerly tech bro formerly finance be all so yeah good to have you back and then that looks here yeah so yeah I'm in a weird fashion in the thumbnail that is a little strange and bewildering I think is like Aaron had this there was like this joke that emerged with uh when Aaron was here last month because she like she was like you're gonna get my boobs right and then we ended up just using
her boobs for the thumbnail and then we abdested we abdested in an instant words but there's a thing she has a laptop right now and she was like should I
Close my laptop because then and then I was like we can't do the same joke twice
and then I was like let's put the boobs on Lou or someone someone recommended
putting the boobs on Lou I was up here chat all right I've got a poor thing to talk about specifically about maybe I'm so sorry you had to see that I'm sorry to you I don't know let's jump into the news news though so I should be a
“fun show look good to have you back you're gonna be a fact the week I think”
right yeah it's gonna be fun and everybody else let's jump to the story we've got this from ABC 10 this is the uh the breaking news report will we'll play it for you right now the FBI warned police departments across California over the past few days that Iran could retaliate for American attacks by launching drones at the west coast ABC reviewed and alert distributed at the
end of February that reads quote we recently acquired information that as of early February 2026 Iran allegedly aspired to conduct a surprise attack using
unmanned aerial vehicles from an unidentified vessel off the coast of the United
States homeland specifically against unspecified targets in California in the event that the U.S. had conducted strikes against Iran with no additional information on the timing method target or perpetrators of this alleged attack and of quote now he says alleged attack would of course it's alleged plan to aspire to allegedly and you know when I see this what is what is a point of the
store a story like this do we really expect Iran to launch drone strikes on California no well there could be blowback specifically from radicalized she has that so far we should be scared right well you know to make sure you're
“not in danger I think blowback is real and I think it's a significant issue that”
we're gonna have to deal with for quite a long time now sadly but when we look up the story it originally uh was an FBI member sent out in February that would have been nice to know for the citizen of California so they could have actually been on watch there I'm looking out a lot of the comments here and people are like well I don't really believe the FBI they covered up the Epstein stuff
for over 30 years now they have no credibility as a lot of people are saying this could just be a way to make people fear or to try to do some kind of false flag in order to allow boots on the ground here lots of people are very skeptical with power right now but I do believe the threat of blowback is real we saw it in Austin three American citizens have lost their lives here
because of a shei radical that was pissed on New York about the but New York was ISIS ISIS has actually been fighting Iran and Iran has been fighting ISIS as well so ISIS and and the radical Sunni islamist are very happy about this war in Iran and there are other considerations about using them along with the Kurds in order to put boots on the ground inside of Iran which I think
is just an awful move because you know things always go good when we drop a
whole bunch of weapons and bombs in the Middle East and give it to the random people there as of course that usually led up to the creation of ISIS global geod is something that's a real legitimate threat that we should be taken seriously and it's just sucks because no one trusts the authorities anymore I don't think that Trump would actually like would really rely on a
false flag to put boots on the ground if that was something that he was going to do just like he didn't need a false flag to attack Israel I think if he actually wanted to do it yeah he's the kind of guy that would be like I'm just gonna go
“do it I'm not saying he's gonna do it I'm saying that's what the chatter is”
online that people are saying that this is this step up to the next potential false flag that's what the chatter is online and of course a lot of people are not really happy about this where they don't want us more involved and if you think about it they they see it as a way if Trump does a false flag then he could galvanize them American public to put put boots
on the ground to escalate and expand this they wouldn't put a story like this out if it was going to be a false flag they would just do it and then after the fact they would say you know what they would do is the attack would happen then there would be hearings on the memo and they would say you knew this is possible and you didn't want everybody and they'd say well we didn't
find it to be credible and then everyone in media would be like the Trump administration knew of the threat of an attack on California and did nothing about it so when I see stuff like this it's usually because it's not going to happen yeah it came from February so obviously we it's been a long time the Iranian you shut down could have been that this memo was circulated for the
purpose of a false flag operation that would that the U.S. would use to then go into attack around you see my point yes because the original before the war right so before the war starts memo is when I'd saying you may get bombed and then if a bombing did happen the years ago we were attacked by Iran we got to go to war now exactly no which is important to consider here all possibilities are
kind of on the table here but when it comes to kind of selling this war this administration really didn't do that they're kind of messaging on it is kind of weird and seems to be jumping all over the place it is yeah I mean there's been very little messaging decides you know Iran's a threat Donald Trump has been pretty hawkish on Iran for I mean a long time before he was
President he was making remarks on Twitter back in like 2013 about how he
couldn't he wouldn't want to see Iran get a nuclear weapon so I don't think that this is actually the Iran war is actually out of character for Trump he did say that he didn't want to see new wars but I don't think that he looks at this as a new war I think he looks at this as an extension of the policy that Iran's not gonna get a nuclear weapon and then as for the idea of a threat of a ship
launching drones off the California coast I think that that's just a same thing like the coast guard well I think that the that American citizen
should be allowed to have weapons I could take out a ship in the second
minute allows it there's a California's handle of themselves there's already people who are posting saying that if anything happens in California it was Israel oh I mean if anything happens anymore it's Israel yeah yeah I stuck with other news are you don't have a girlfriend because of the Jews that's
“that's why yeah well it's likely that's what we plot you know I was walking through”
my my kitchen and I went to open my door and it was one of those it's one of those handles not like a door knob I want to open did it got caught in my belt loop and yeah Jews yeah I knew right away it was a Jews and I knew about that you man sex I know it actually Aaron orchestrated the whole PTSD from last night usually sneaks in there and then the PTSD you know it's like D it's post
interventionals of stress disorder PIST PIST I know I like the post intervention stress disorder PIST I do I think on Trump though with all of this I somewhat agree with his style right now of not saying that much and just getting it done he's just getting a lot of stuff done yeah what is it I think even example I was getting frustrated when he sent a truth out saying like
to the people of Iran help us on the way and I thought Trump doesn't but it's like a truth out so he did and he doesn't truth he truth and I thought Donald Trump is not he's not gonna write something like that unless he means it and
“then we went week after week after week and we watched his tens of thousands of”
Iranians got slaughtered and it's because he was getting ready and the military was preparing and they were coordinating with Israel and then we had the attack that killed the Iotola so I'm I'm okay with trusting him and our Secretary of War and seeing what they do I do not think there's any interest for us to have a long extended word Donald Trump cares very much about his
legacy and so he's not going to risk that legacy and also people people in America love applying an American framework to everything and it is a big mistake and Israel is really is retired even fighting a lot they've been fighting for two years they're done it's worth noting that like Donald Trump cares about his legacy he also has no problem with being like all right we're done and just leaving
like he'll be as people about what was accomplished what wasn't accomplished he has no problem laid on thick yeah we're done we did it you know we're on
thing is you guys remember in Trump's first term he was very adamant about
ending the the Israel Palestine crisis yeah he he wanted to be the guy to end that so one of the things I was thinking about today is that you know what what what are Trump's motivations if if legacy is especially important to him why start a war that people are going to admit about and one theory you know it's funny because the anti-Israel people are just going to claim Tim Pools that's in these
stupid blah blah blah I have a theory that may or may not be correct I don't know but I'm thinking about Donald Trump coming in his first term being like these losers couldn't solve Israel Palestine but I can cause I'm the art of the deal and I'm going to cut a deal so good that it's going to solve the Middle Eastern crisis once and for all and then he could get it done and then he started wondering why can't I get it done
that the Abraham of course is awesome but he was like the Israel Palestine issue is just
“not getting solved and he wants to be the deal maker and then I think he ran into the issue”
of Iran funding Hamas groups like a somber grade types and other militia groups in the Middle East that are continuing to fight and they're not they're they were fusing to say no there there's no deal to be made with them I think for Trump there's two things one I believe I believe at Marco Rubius at the first time Israel was going to take an action against Iran the US was concerned this would result in a retaliation against the United States so
they decided to join the Israeli effort because they didn't want to take a defensive posture which would they would then get criticized for so they decided okay fine if Israel's going to then we're happy to attack as well I think you're leaving out part of what he said
what did he say part of what he said is we were always going to attack Iran but then because
of Israel's timeline we decided we want to be on the off end of the day we are always going to attack Iran he said they were they're in the negotiations negotiations we're not going well he said he said there was we were always an attack was always going to be necessary against Iran that is what he said and that was the whole point is that the clip was taken out of context and they didn't include everything that he said and then Caroline love it came out and everyone in the
administration came back and said that's not true and then we were a wife but I still think that they clarified it was taken out of context short claims that the bombing campaign the first time in Iran was a 12-day war and sufficiently over he did not want this to happen so I genuinely believe that this is something that they did not want to have to do however my point ultimately
Was why is it that Trump is bombing the hell out of their leadership what are...
do we see him trying to do Abraham Accords was massive he's trying to he wants that legacy of being the guy who stabilized the Middle East which is like one of the most ridiculous things anyone
“could it could it could aspire to do and Iran is basically like nah so I think Trump out of the”
point where he's like you can't negotiate with these people and then I imagine a bunch of neocons sort of laughing being like oh yeah like you you thought you were going to get an negotiating cut
a deal it was never going to happen well Anthony Blinken even came out and talked about how
BB was trying to get Barack Obama to do this Donald Trump in 2011 said quote our president will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate he's weak and in effect of now what happened between 2011 and now there's a big time jump of course here what what I find weird was how Rubio came out and said what he said and then the next day walked it back when asked by the same reporter refusing the same exact statement that he made and this is why
there's such a kind of like strange kind of circumstance here because we're first being told Iran's going to attack Israel Israel is going to attack Iran no Israel was going to was going to be the victim here no Iran was going to attack the US which which one is going on what's the truth here the messaging is off we don't know what's really going on and this is not how you convince a general public that everything's going along swimmingly because it doesn't seem like it looks like they're
just they just did it and they're looking for justification afterwards and it's pretty clear it's not going the way it should it should go up to the story we've got breaking news a video that's been going massively viral this is a Amachi Stein one of the oil tankers that was attacked by
“Iranian explosive boats in the Persian Gulf belongs to a US-based company safe see group I believe”
is it the name of the company we've got two videos we've got this one as well as this from Disclosed TV an American owned oil tanker struck by explosive drone boats near Iraqi waters preliminary reports indicate so we'll just play this video for you first I don't think there's any sound okay there we go massive one of the craziest things about these tankers getting bombed is that this is these are some of the biggest explosions and fireballs
ever in history because these are tankers with like ridiculous amounts of crude and them blowing up so here's the here's the other video and so this is the issue that we were talking about last night and what I will say is without getting in I suppose it's still thing like the argument the reason why the United States largely has been trying to go after Iran is because the straight-of-war moves is 20% of global oil in gas so if you're a petro dollar
country you are very concerned about what Iran is doing they have threatened to drop mines they were poorly dropping mines now and they could be lying but they're doing it so that ships are scared to transport oil so if you're a customer of this petro dollar system your pest gas prices are going up in California you guys see it eight dollars a gallon in LA eight dollars and 21 cents for gas in LA crazy this is the principal issue this is why Donald Trump is like we can't allow
these people to do things like this one country should not be able to disrupt 20% of global oil trade but it's more than that though because this is what Trump is doing it's he's dealing with one of the three legs of the soul of our enemies we have China, Russia and Iran and this also weakens China and Russia who get their oil from Iran so when people talk about this like it's it's Iran in this vacuum across the world like what Donald Trump is doing is multiple layers
deeper than that I'm not always the person's like oh Donald Trump is always playing for you
chess I don't think that's always the case but in this case it's really not just only about Iran but Trump came out and said he wants to help China he wants to help open up the trade routes which predominantly does benefit China but Trump said that specifically what does that mean yeah what he's
“saying is China is going to be on the petro dollar system that's what he's saying because China”
has actively been working to get off of the petro dollar so you think master of the deal or to the deal Mr President Donald Trump is not getting people along with his messaging you think he's just like oh yeah like China's fine no I'm saying he's he's now saying that he's going to ensure a lot of these ships right these ships are predominantly helping out China and India so he's going
out of his way to help out for the same reason the US gives Pakistan 13 million dollars for
gender studies we know that money went to some crop politicians pocket and he bought himself a lamboe the point is by putting US dollars in these countries the goal is to get them to want to use US dollars for their trade to be in the petro dollar system I'm not saying it's good I'm not saying
You should agree with it but the motivation is actually let me put it like th...
understand why is Trump supporting the Saudi Arabia as attacks and the humanitarian crisis like the
“the violence in Yemen it has to do with who the rebels bombing the Red Sea and Donald Trump”
trying to kiss the pink earring of the Saudis to get them back on the petro dealer contract it expired well the hootsies are a proxy army of the Iranians so this has been a long conflict that
the Israelis and the Americans have been working on because first they got a bit of all the
proxies they got rid of Hezbollah they got rid of all of their allies in the region yes and a lot of the hootsies as well so they got rid of their capabilities to strike back and now they're they're they're slowly going after them let me ask this honest question I'm curious your thoughts should we allow the who the rebels to bomb civilian cargo vessels going through the Red Sea of of course not but this but this so just sorry the challenge is I I don't have an issue with saying like
if the rebels are bombing cargo vessels we're going to stop you I have a problem with a bomb of blowing up civilian targets and you know in civilian restaurants and things like that I have an
“issue with curtailing the transparency on drone strikes in the Middle East because Trump doesn't want”
people to realize that escalated that while they've pulled back on ground troops the challenge
is all of these things are tied together and you know I was I was looking at domestic policy stuff early today and the point is there's a machine in place that nobody can break you get an office as I'll say this to for for for a brand in her era because we love the guy he's going to get an office and he's going to maybe move the needle in inch and I'm I'm satisfied with that because we need to get every member of congress out and get you know 500 brand in her era in the mean
time though he's going to be dropped into a machine that is churning and he's going to have very little like ability to move it you know at the same time I would prefer for Donald Trump to protect American shipping lanes not international shipping lanes and if we were involved if we were involved here right and we would have focused on America like this would have strategically put China in a position to make Iran open up the straight of her most and stop this war right by getting involved
you're making sure that you're doing the bidding of China and I have seen no deal about China accepting the US petro dollar at all and if I see it I would gladly say that I'm wrong but we're doing the work for China right now according to Donald Trump and so the issue is do you want to trade oil in one and have China be the dominant unipolar global power or do you want to pressure them to just accept the the state of affairs with the US naval police if that would be the thing
“that's happening here okay I would understand that's what I haven't seen I haven't seen proof”
so then what is it painted as an alternate picture look what does it look like if we're not doing America takes care of America and we invest in our people and we take care of our infrastructure we make sure that that doesn't get that we don't be sure that America is actually
considered America in a way where we take care of our own problems first domestically we don't
we don't we're not the police of the world I don't think we should be the police of the world realizing because we are the way we are the police of the world yeah I don't think we should be is the point the the challenge is the US principal export is US naval police we we tell these countries if you use US dollars for oil the patriotism we will guarantee safe passage for your vessels that's the principal reason why we're like Iran's bad they're threatening the Red Sea in the
Suez and they're threatening the Gulf States oil transport so this is why for decades the US has been like we've got to remove this government in Iran they they control too much of this region and our customers are mad yeah I mean we we haven't replaced our government we we replaced one ayatollah would a more radical ayatollah that just lost a lot of his family members I don't think you can air strike your way to regime change but Iran was willing to negotiate right and as uh
Iran was just bringing them bombs no they were willing to negotiate sorry the number of times you yeah I trust like I who can't pronounce my name I can't pronounce that you may have to take it but preventing a ran from taking over the heart of the straight on loser or taking care of the the hoothies that are attacking shipping lanes like that is taken care of US interests yes yes whether or not we want whether or not we like it it's like those issues
it wouldn't be an issue if you look at especially with what the hootsies were doing it was more related towards what was happening in Gaza right and that was our involvement as well so if we were involved in any of that trade so the hootsies came out and said that we will start attacking ships because of what's happening in Gaza we want to Gaza ceasefire and they were using these actually care what's happening in Gaza the hootsies are proxy army of the Iranians right
and then fighting them are al-Qaeda and the United States and the Barack Obama fighting as al-Qaeda to fight the hootsies okay look yeah pause for a couple just make a point yeah the hoot these statements are meaningless it's a proxy of Iran so they're just doing what Iran wants yes it's but continue yes
No no I just explained it we were on the side of al-Qaeda fighting the hootsi...
under Barack Obama's administration they're we're involved in financing some of the worst
“awful people when that money should be here in America right that money should be I don't want”
to be taxed and my money being given to Abdulah whether he's a kutsi or a card or she I don't care about the I care about my people I care about this country because we started siphoning it out of Iran in the 1930s like we we no we did a good idea they're before and we overthrew their leadership but the CIA and that didn't really work out there okay look do you do do you do do you understand what like what would happen if the petroidologist amended yes the whole dollar system
would collapse there would not be dollars there would not be living in that state for what you're talking about again I'm not saying I agree with invading around with not that yeah my point is back in back in 2016 we had talked about this because I was telling people if you like cheap laptops
and ten cent you know hot dogs in the street corner Hillary Clinton's the candidate for you
because she will bomb not out of any way to make sure we get that cheap oil and everyone's in our system she's complimenting Trump is the guy who is saying secure borders bring our manufacturing back strength and ourselves internally so that there's real value in this country then we start to look
“out work and I I agreed with that that's why I I don't think that the Trump administration is”
mustache twirling evil I I I I question the Obama administration I question some people in the Trump administration but I understand there's going to be biases in all this things when I look at the Obama administration I see mustache twirling evil when I look at the Trump administration I see naivete oh it's mustache twirling they're not as the machine twirls its own mustache and they get in there and they're being twirled with it no if you say no they assassinate you're not like bomb a kill the 16-year-old
kid and I know that Donald Trump has been accused of civilian strikes that have killed Americans including the 16-year-olds sister yep and though so so though this is all true to to the best of understanding I will say a couple things on this the Obama administration admitted to the strikes that killed the 16-year-old the Trump administration has been accused it's it's an alleged crime we don't have the same degree of evidence yeah to be fair the the Trump stuff was the girl caught a ground in a gunfight
it wasn't a strike that it was a commando raid but it was alleged by the family so I'm willing to say
“that deserves an investigation I'm not going to ignore it but it's not the same as Obama admitting”
they blew up a 16-year-old American kid bombing a country or not a war with war with targeting civilian restaurant that's the mustache twirling evil and the reason Obama did that was because he was setting a message to the world if you fight us we will massacre your children we don't care and I gotta say this I kind of love the masculinity of it despite it being depraved evil oh Obama looked into the eyes of jihadis and said I'm gonna kill your children and they went what
you can't do that your america's watch me and he pressed the button and he blew up the person's kid because that is evil yeah he later came out and said how he felt awful about his foreign policy and endeavors and steel field still feels very bad about what he did now I do believe that there's a world where we can negotiate we can make trade deals where the number one superpower in the world we have a lot to trade with we have a lot to invest with this could have all been done by
prioritizing america look at the way china's doing it with the belt and road initiative we could have did similar initiatives we didn't need to bomb country we didn't need to be in debt we were thirty nine trillion dollars in debt and what do we have to show for it and 11 trillion on the Middle East and we got al-Qaeda replaced by al-Qaeda but you understand the belt and initiative is just China's version of the international monetary fund yeah so we in the world back yeah exactly
the West was cutting these deals and saying we'll develop your nation and I hate it I hate it you know what I want this is what I'm saying I love the idea of a world police I really really do I love the idea of 20 aircraft carriers floating around saying don't effort around because you will find out what I don't like is the same system then started injecting gay communism to all these other countries and bringing McDonald's and Starbucks to turning everything in time square
and this is what pissed people off this is what got these the people in Afghanistan were pissed here's the gay communism there there were murals in Afghanistan for for like LGBTQ stuff and I'm like you have a conservative religious country and you're trying to bring gay communism
no wonder you couldn't stabilize for 20 years here's what I like the idea of nations can be
nations they get their own borders they can choose who comes and goes they get to live their lives they have internal laws they engage in trade but if they start bombing people in the Red Sea for instance then we come in and say no it's not happening unfortunately this idea of a liberal economic order which is supposed to be we go and develop countries we give you loans you pay those loans back we stabilize trade around you we stopped war from happening isn't what they did
they started injecting gay communism to a bunch of countries and that screwed up all of this international order that AOC claims that Trump is is screwing up really this problem was centralized authority in general as they'll they'll bait you with let's make you safe everyone subserve to my authority and then they twist you up with their weird thoughts to get superpowers
They want to be in total control they want to put you to sleep man and just j...
so it might be like some chaos on earth and no real one-world police man up being better but
I don't know man I see the machine state the quiet death you know war is evil wars demonic but it's a racket it's a racket by special interest groups that have hijacked it throughout the last few decades ever since the war on terror was initiated we got more terror we lost more of our money we lost more of our privacy we lost more of our rights and we have nothing to show for it except debt all right we could have done this in a totally different way where we weren't
financing the radicals like we did in the 80s and then they came over so let me like to move on g and then the quote freedom fighters so yeah so let me ask you about the like domestic effects of all of those policies as it pertains to people at home what do you think is like like the
results of all of these things we so pond it we we find it all kind of stuff what do you think is
the worst ramification it's a legitimate question I'm not playing yet the destruction of the U.S. dollar in the purchasing power of the dollar like people had to work harder to get work harder and get less we're printing money and we're giving it to this like just huge endeavours
“in the Middle East and we have nothing to show for I think one of the the obvious answers”
would be at 9/11 which the CIA called blowback for Middle Eastern operations we were we were meddling in affairs in in the Middle East for decades since I mean like the early 1900s where it became predominantly U.S. operations in the 50s and this results in an expansion of terror we funded the Mujahaddin who then become al Qaeda and then we get blowback because they don't like us so I think the the the the challenges here the way we're at push back on you a little bit
look is the petro-dollar system makes us fat and comfortable we get more than we deserve because of this system without it's we would largely be like factory workers and farmers I don't think that's entirely a bad thing mind you but when you say stuff like the dollar is weakened or whatever I think the bigger problem is the threat of violence terror and instability in various regions like terrorism being the principal issue these are the trade-offs that we have
“economically I think people don't realize just how good we have it and if you were to end”
this this petro-dollar system we our economy would tank like laptops would cost $44,000 so I'm not saying that the petro-dollar increasing the dollar is great I think it's great. If you keep the country dollar on the straightaway mission there's the carrot and the stick we've been come we've become literally just well so now let me ask you do you a great so Obama's stance was let's appease Iran I'm not trying to be a dick when I say this he said Iran's threatening the
straight in the Gulf States and and 20% of global trade let's give a money and just keep them happy they didn't give them money they they they opened up their bank accounts that they sanctioned it's indeed possible if cash was that was the quote yeah it was money that was seized yes Obama released tons of cash to them yeah saying we're going to appease them it didn't work Trump's strategy is I'm going to blow them all up I'm not convinced it will work I don't think
you can take over a country with missiles you need an occupying force with that deal we did have inspectors that went to Iran and and everything bro let me say this oh wait are you actually quoting the inspectors right now bro Trump the promise does wait they pinky promise does do you tell the Santa Claus also sorry you're on that we were a bit more years ago that's that's more Santa Claus it's a children if you're watching Santa is real
he's real and it's not true it was not true but you know what but we're also we're at a
“time right now where Iran and their proxies have never been weaker and that's why the U.S. is doing”
this right now this is the moment I agree my hope is I'm not so naive to think that's that will
never come a time where let me let me let me not use so many negatives um sometimes you got to use
war power yeah uh Brandon Herrera made the the excellent point of we don't want to start wars we don't want to get into needless wars we don't want to get into forever wars but there is a point where you're going to say if you have with us I'm going to show you what a trillion dollars looks like yeah and and I agree and I respect that the the the challenge with this the reason why I'm not like I in all things I try to avoid being an extremist on any position because I think these things
are nuanced I think that if a certain point Iran was able to actually develop nuclear weapons I don't think they'd randomly just start bombing countries yeah I do think in war they would use nukes so I think in the immediate what they would do is they would say now that we have a nuclear weapon it's time for you to give us more and Trump doesn't want to negotiate with the nuclear power so that's why he's like it's not gonna happen but but B.B. was telling us that they were
Going to nuke near your city yeah because he's not just because B.
it's the stupidest thing and and I'm going to say this too for the meeting that I had with
“him where he was like they're going to nuke you and we're like oh shut up like if they even”
get to the point that those rockets aren't going to reach the side of the planet don't give me wrong like they're not but the drones are the drone to reach even ships in the Pacific that will launch over three miles which is different from an intercontinental ballistic missile going 20,000 miles. The other people complaining right now about gas prices very temporarily going up in straight of removes imagine how high gas could go. let's say nukes not imagine we've got the story from
car scoops the $8 gallon is here if you're dumb enough to pay for it war jitters and California tax quirks push pump prices skyward in the gold state but not all stations are so expensive $8 and 21 cents per gallon in Los Angeles now of course this is a massive urban metro one of our biggest cities so of course the prices are very very high the average price of gas in California is upwards of five dollars and 25 cents however my friends this is because of California's
“tax system not because of the war the prices have gone up because the war true but $8 is because”
California has stupid tax especially California now gas gas was hovering around like 25230 and it did go up 20% so people are now looking at $280 maybe even highest three dollars in many and many urban metros which is not good but it's nowhere near the apocalypse that many liberals are starting to bring up that being said I am not going to play games where I downplay the fact that gas prices are growing up because of war and Iran started. if Trump is able to get
whatever he's trying to get done in in Iran in a couple of weeks and all of the stops and normalizes I will say okay good but you said whatever he's trying to get that's the problem I don't think he knows what's what's happened they thought we're going to bomb and kill 140 people in their leadership and then they're going to give up and they went all in and now we're all in we're not gonna stop did we stop there they will stay at war for 20 years if we stop we're
nowhere near all in all in would be drafting drafting 18 year olds and sending that to be sure essentially defect a war on Iran the war started I will I will give the you know I had the debate on this show last week where I said where at war and the other guy was like it's not war and everybody was rolling their eyes like both were I will give one one there was like an IRL chat made a really great point that a declaration of war by Congress gives the president
a ton of powers he has the power to change industry to direct production it opens up a bunch of budgets and so there is an argument he made the reason Trump doesn't want this to be a formalized congressional war is that it's going to change the economic footing of the country in a way that could be damaging now that's the argument of and it's a good thing it's like no he didn't happen that happened but wasn't that actually it happened and it's a good thing that's that he's using
executive authority to declare war like a tyrant come on I mean I'm not saying it's a saying a great country doesn't need to be taken care of here but we'll be realistic that this guy's acting like a tyrant and maybe a benevolent tyrant maybe but that's a form of tyranny I mean these executive orders and going to war one guy I suppose the argument is because I don't necessarily disagree that that is tyrannical to launch a war against another country without proper declaration
without proper constitutional authority the issue that I see with this is that literally every president has done it for a long time and that we are living in the system of executive over authority and I'm like I'm not going like guys I'm a teenager and I watch George L. B. Bush and I'm like
I am very critical of this and then people are like don't you remember the other presidents
I was like no I'm 16 like let me tell you about Vietnam and I went really then Obama does it then Trump does and I go oh this is just what our government is yeah right so it's not unique to Trump yeah I'm not trying to I'm trying to defend Trump on the issue though but this is what the U.S. is it's almost as if every president that that campaigns always says there will be no war but then there's like shadow super government that just kind of takes over whenever they get into any kind of
position talking about Israel no I'm talking about more of the deep state more of the swamp
“it's kind of being a. I think it's still important to talk about energy and energy resources here”
Trump did say that he wants to get rid of oil sanctions on certain countries he didn't name them but the one country that we have a lot of oil sanctions on is Russia so the argument that we're fighting Russia and China through this war here doesn't really stick since it looks like we're going to be opening up Russia's markets and opening up China's trade here which isn't really
America first it's like knocking out the legs of a table and being like you look guys it was
flimsy the whole time just come back it's like we blew out their fucking their oil support like and we're like there's no stopping us you got you can't you can't but just get on board
I mean look at the uh I had something just a bunch of oil China's developing ...
nuclear reactors and a bunch of solar panels as well that they're heavily investing in their energy production is going through the roof right we can be doing the same thing by the way we could be doing the same thing but now we're off committing whatever we're responding to all oil refineries
“and water desalination plants and we're on for some reason but that's what our buddy's going to”
us we could have been building more nuclear reactors we could have been making America energy independent but not we got to go bomb the water desalination plants again both the US and China have a different strategy when it comes to AI because that's what both of these things are talking about whether you're talking about uh infrastructure when China's going to win because they have energy in the whole world hold on chill out bro like the US right now has a lock on the
chips because the because the relationship with Taiwan China has uh has basically older generation chips China's looking at the long road though because at some point the bottleneck isn't going to be the chips the bottleneck and that's going to be the energy production. China's looking at this from the long run the US needs to change our policy when it comes to energy production I just saw that there was a nuclear plant that's going to be opening I don't know when it's actually going
to happen but the US is looking to make those changes but they're behind the aid ball in the energy production but for now the US does have the edge when it comes to like the chips and what we're getting rid of our defensive tad missile systems in Asia because we're bringing them over
to the Middle East and then China's looking at Taiwan here motivated that they're never
I don't think that I don't think that China has the has the ability to take Taiwan in Korea. What is that stand for? Fad? Yeah. No idea. Fad missile systems. Yeah. You don't even know. No. So you never you never look it up. I was teasing you because nobody knows what it stands for. Which caught Fad. It's a terminal high altitude area defense. I did that because I know everybody just reads the news and we call them the Fad missiles but no one actually knows
they're trying to tuck her meat. They're not even. They're not even a mess. They're just radar.
“But if you're also wrong because China gets what is it over half of their oil from Iran?”
No, no, no, no, no. They get it from Iran. They only get when I wrote about this the other day.
They get something along along the lines of like China imports 11.6 million barrels of oil per day.
Of that roughly 1.3 million barrels come from Iran. 13 to 14 percent of China's total seaborn imports come from Iran. Seaborn in part 80 percent of Iran's oil. So taking out Iran doesn't like cripple China. But what it does is it's attacking China from the edges. It's not crippling China. The people that are saying that this that this takes that they get so much oil from from Iran. That's not the case. They do get a significant portion. And when you combine
Iran, Venezuela and Iran, then it actually turns into a realistic percent. But it's not crippling. Let me ask you Luke and also Aaron, you can chime in. What do you think about the the operation in Venezuela? I think it's some people say successful operation mainly because of what are you the regime chain? But when we look at the regime chain, you pretty much just put in the vice president of that country. I you know, geopolitically, we're going to see how it plays out.
“Right. And I think we have still haven't seen it really be finished. So I know we got rid of”
Maduro. We have his underlings that are in power now. How is that relationship going to play out? Is it even going to mean anything? We're going to see. But you're not like instantly negative on it. No. We need to see the regime. I agree. We need to see the results from this. I will say this. I'm actually as time goes on and we're seeing that things are remaining stable. I'm more and more in favor of it. And again, as Ian pointed out, I call this post-intervention stress disorder,
pissed. The the millennial generation is like we grew up learning about Vietnam. And then we watched Iraq and Afghanistan happen. And it's like, wow, we suck at this. Maybe we shouldn't do it. But real quick, that being said, the thing that pisses me off the most about Venezuela is that in 2009, shoves stole our oil assets. They belong to us. We feel like people are this. I go to USA. Hey, Luke, is it okay if I build a, you know, a little sprinkler system on your,
I'm going to build a fountain on your lawn. I just want to be able to get the water out of it. Is that, is that cool? You say, yeah, totally fine. We'll split the water. And then one day you go, it's mine now. Exactly. One of the US, the US went rats and ignored it. And now it's been some 17 years, 16 years. Trump says we're taking our stuff back. So I don't look at that as unjust. My concern
with it always was will it destabilize the region where cartels could easily start seizing power
and manipulating. So far, it's starting to look better and better. Yeah. And I'm feeling kind of good about it. We're going to see how it plays off. But I remember during the Iraq war, which I was against. That was protesting. I was very young then. But I remember after George W. Bush declared mission accomplished for a long time. Everyone saw this as a huge success as a huge victory. Only until eight months to a year, the people finally start to realize, holy cow. This was a big
Mistake.
had nuclear weapons. And it was going to New York just like he just said the same exact thing about Iran as well. The policy in Iraq was a big part of the problem. Like trying to debathify the entire country. Well, take the military aid, all the military, and you tell all these military age men that are trained, they're like, go home. We're totally dissolving your physician. All those people are just like, well, I've got nothing else to do,
but I know how to fight. So I'm going to go into the United States. Yeah. Which is, I mean,
that was a terrible idea in the first place. The fact that in Venezuela, the Trump administration
took out Maduro and they just left the government said, look, play ball with us or we will come to get you. Obviously, it's a different situation when you turn the lights out in a whole city, shut the whole city off. Go and do what you want. Grab the president and leave the rest of the people in the government are going to be like, we probably should play ball. Yeah. So it is different, but at the same time, if you leave the infrastructure there, the government structures there and
don't tell people that are trained to fight, go and go home with nothing to do. You're likely to get a better outcome than, you know, you got in Iraq. Let's jump to some domestic policy stuff, because we've got a big story here, and that is the Save America Act. Those that aren't familiar, this is a bill that basically would require, well, literally would require proof of citizenship when you register to vote, not when you actually vote. It's supported by basically everybody in this
“country. In fact, 71% of Democrats believe you should have an ID when you literally vote, not just”
register. Republicans, it's like 95, and depends about 80%. The question then becomes if literally everybody supports this, and it's one of the most popular bills we have ever seen in our lifetime, why are Democrats and Rhino Republicans, and I was kind of redundant, but still, why are they blocking this? Something doesn't quite make sense. The latest story, of course, is that Thune has quashed Trump's push for filibuster reform. They pull a bunch of shenanigans first. Many people
on the right have said, kill the filibuster. You can change the rules, so there's no filibuster, and a simple majority will pass this bill. Then the media said, well, actually, there's talk of making Democrats do a talking filibuster. No one suggested it. That's controlled opposition.
Now, John Thune is saying a talking filibuster wouldn't work, which was never the pitch anyway.
They are shutting this down, and the question is, why? Now, where it gets interesting. Cornan in Texas, who's facing a runoff election against Ken Paxton, was not supporting the save act, not supporting Nucing the filibuster, and also unchanged his tune, because he's at risk of losing his seat, and Ken Paxton said he will drop out of the race if Cornan pledges to vote in the save act, which he's not going to do. Well, the interesting thing is, we got this
over from Carl Schee, shout out Carl Schee for sponsoring this show. We've got this from Carl Schee showing. Cornan and Paxton have flipped back and forth, and right here, Ken Paxton was the favorite to win, but when Cornan came out and said, you know what, I'm going to, you know, do whatever,
“he's a change, whatever, you need to pass the save act. It immediately switched with now the”
prediction markets favoring Cornan to win, which I find very fascinating, but I'm going to tell you guys what I think before we kick this off to the panel. The reason why Cornan came out and said,
I'm in favor of this is because he got assurances from Thune and from Democrats, it will never pass
anyway. So they're allowing him to say what he needs to say to his voter base, so they will vote for him while Ken Paxton, of course, is the legitimate and real choice. He is now coming out saying, I'm with you, people, because behind the scenes, they put up a wall, it will never pass. You guys, Texas, Ken Paxton is the right guy, Cornan and these, and these rhino dudes, they're playing dirty games. So I'll throw it to you guys. Why do you think it is?
Despite the fact that everybody in this country wants this bill to pass, they won't pass it. Well, the Democrats don't want to pass it. The Republicans, too. I know, there are,
“there aren't enough Republicans on board, and I think that there should be premonitions.”
The filibuster. Yeah, I would love to see him do the filibuster. So why is John Thune again? We understand Democrats hate Trump and all that, but the bigger question is, why are even Republicans against it? Yeah, Lisa Murkowski is against it as well. Yes, she's cut a deal. She cut a deal to say to vote no against it. So why are Republicans just being like now? Everybody wants it. Again, granted, it's only a few Republicans, but they only need a few Republicans. Well, I'm not sure
what the reasons they've tried to articulate, but I think the voters are going to be disenfranchised is what Murkowski is saying. Murkowski was just a fake. That's the last one. Well, Chuck Schumann is tens of billions of billions of billions of people. So I don't know if he's talking about like this bill can for first time or it's all the dead people he's talking about. Here's the video. Here's the video. Let's play it. Hmm, voter ID number one, it is about voter registration.
That's true. It makes it, it allows ice to kick tens of billions of people off the roles.
I think he just had a lot of millions of people off to kick tens of billions ...
he has congested in a little bit. There is a little bit of a set of tens of billions. Come on. He's like, I heard millions too. Everybody hurling millions. Everybody's talking.
For the first time in my entire life, I agree with Ian. He's just like, you know, he's a little
nasally touch of millions. Yeah, fortunately he's not in the first time. I'm the first. I'm the first one to watch Chuck Schumann, but like, yeah, you know, not so interesting. He literally thinks there's tens of billions of people. I'm saying he just misspoke and it's funny. And it is funny. Yeah, he just, he misspoke and it's funny. He said tens of billions. Yeah, but if he did say that, I'd start to question his sanity and think he should resign. I'm glad it was more sounded like
more congestion. What are some titles today? I don't think there are any. Are there? I don't know. Yeah, no, there aren't any. Maybe you'd have to go to a, well, actually, you know what I'll do? He needs to alkalize with his lymphatic system. I mean, he has rock to translate. We should send
“him one of those netty pots. Is that what it is? Do it through your net raise? That's how you solve.”
But I've never done them because apparently I think you could get like something weird in your brain.
You pair a size. Yeah, you can get it here. And then you're still like bacteria in your brain if you do that. Just use to steal the water. Just to steal the water? I'm just not going to try it. All right. What's the, what is that? I'm just going to say that. That he's not in the brain. Yeah, right. It's like a tea kettle and people were. Yeah, they were, they were, they were using tap water and then dying because the amoeba is what going to their brain and then they would, and then die.
True story. Okay. So here's what, uh, here's what grocks trans, I said transcribed. It says, here's the transcription of the video from the X post. Quote. Yes, but their bill isn't voter ID number one. It's about voter registration. It allows eyes to kick tens of billions of, uh, tens of billions off the rolls. And they don't tell them until election day. And you show them. You say you're not registered anymore. You're not on the rolls. He said billions. He's talking
about aliens. And I don't mean the illegal ones. I mean the, the ones up there or trying to reassure. Oh, God. Well, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he slipped up. He slipped up. You know, the mask
“came off. Uh, the truth is they were talking about all the Jews that are coming to the country.”
Yeah, that was one of the elements of Jews that will come in. One of the other arguments we
have yesterday is that there's actually more than 14 million Jews because they're keeping it a secret.
So, so we're discussing things. We're, we're discussing the dating polls actually have heard her then. Yeah. Apparently there's like a billion Jews, we're discussing that the, that the reasons are federal overreach and the state's authority. And she's saying she's concerned about making major election changes too close to the, to the midterms, which I think is the whole point of the, the act is to make sure that there is a change before the midterms. Thune is saying that he
supports the bill in principle, but it's blocking the procedural path. His argument, changing the filibuster rule is a bigger risk. He needs 60 votes to advance it and doesn't have them when Trump pushed the talking filibuster work around through them. Thune said, we aren't there. Essentially protecting the filibuster over the bill. John Curtis from Utah says the reason or method doesn't matter. It's breaking the filibuster, which is objecting on procedure and Rand Paul is against
that because it's inconsistent with states' rights, states' rights, you know, the 10th amendment.
“So, I mean, well, that's a problem. Ryan, I mean, obviously. Yeah. So, I mean, I think that, you know,”
Rand Paul's actually not a surprise when it comes to that particular perspective, but I do think that these are actually pretty weak arguments. The whole federal overreach thing, the point of this is just making sure that the voter rolls are only citizens. So, this is not some kind of federal overreach because they're telling everybody how they have to do the votes. All they're saying is they have to verify. All right. So, here's the kicker. Where do most people write you to vote? Post office,
DMV. The DMV that is cracked or for those in those fancy Commonwealth states, the MVC, which is weird. Why do you call that? So, what do you go to the DMV for? Trifers license to get your ID and what do you need to get it? You need your birth certificate, you need like a letter from, you know, a bill to your house and your social security card. Hey, all of that is proof of citizenship. So, when you're registering to vote most people, this is the funniest thing. They're like, you need an ID,
a real ID to prove it. So, you give them all of your stuff. They say, yep, this satisfies the requirement for an ID. I'm a press the button right now and then the ID comes out and they go, here's your ID and you go, here's my proof to register to vote. They just check the box on the form. You're good with what you already got. This inhibits no one. No one. What it will do, however, is make sure that people who should not be registered registered, which are not registered,
which is weird, because we have seen instances where non-citizens accidentally got registered. I think the real play here, the real reason that I wanted to pass, is because ballot harvesting is an excellent way to manipulate and control elections. And the Republicans deal with Democrats because one big, happy family treason and they're all friends. They're not fighting each other for the most part. Trump and the mag of people are fighting. Rand Paul is fighting. To a certain degree,
Massey is fighting too, even fighting Trump.
That's why it was so important that Brandon Herrera win. And I know it's going to happen
because as much as we love Brandon Herrera, there are certain impossibilities in Congress. I just think that if we get 500 Brandon Herrera's in Congress, that's when you actually affect the
“system at changes. So I think people should be tempered in their expectations for these mid-terms.”
If we win, or if Republicans win, you're still not going to get a whole lot, but the alternative will be a whole lot worse. Yeah, I mean, if Democrats take the house, there's just going to be endless impeachment attempts. You know, the none of the presidents agenda is going to get past. There won't be any kind of legislation. They probably won't fund DHS. They probably will defund ICE or try to defund ICE. It's going to be just a complete mess. And all the stuff that
the American people voted for Donald Trump for, even the people that are mad, they haven't got enough of it yet. Like they're not going to get any of it. And again, people are we're complaining about Donald Trump last summer, which you can complain. But if you've already made your decision last summer that you weren't going to vote for them, it's like he'd been in office for six months. People were making their making complaints now. It's like it's a year and two months that he's
actually been in office and people are already giving up. I mean, don't black feel like you have the allow a government that is designed to work slowly to work through the process. And if you're just like, oh, well, he didn't wave a magic wand and give me what I want right now, then so I'm not going to support the agenda. I mean, that doesn't help anyone at all because Democrats empower only makes things worse. Not just for just for Donald Trump, but it makes things worse for the country.
A lot worse. I saw a good quote on Twitter a while ago. It said Democrats cause all of the problems, but Republicans will solve none of them. Yeah, it's true. That's all right. They have a strong word at the letter. They'll do that. They do that pretty well. And I view libertarians as the party of we came together because we all found something that we want to be legal party. So that's why when you go to libertarian conventions, you've just got like weirdo, lefties and perverts,
alongside people who don't like taxes. And then you're like, how come you guys are like, anti-warnt hate taxes, which is like a reason why I don't have a approach. But you've got a bunch of weird fetishists in your audience. It's like, well, you know, because they're libertarians because they want something to be legal. Yeah, that's about it. There's a lot of misplaced political energy in the libertarian. They're very angry about it. Yeah, misplaced. That's one way to
describe it. I mean, look, you've got if you're entire platform, and this is the reason I don't call myself a libertarian anymore. Here's entire platform is we want to make sure that we get into power. So that way we do nothing. That's not going to help people. And it's not an attractive platform to people that are looking for a government that's going to do something for them. Especially considering
“the government is so broad and so far reaching it. It's in every aspect of your life. You have to”
get into a position of power and we'll actually roll the government back. And sometimes that takes that takes doing things you don't want to do to be able to get to the point where you can pass laws that you want to or repeal things and undo things that you don't like. Yeah, I will say that one of the big challenges right now with the Texas stuff with Ken
Paxton and John Cornean is that, you know, Ken Ken has been very, very incredible in the national
stage. However, the TABC just rated the large card club for reasons we don't know and shut them down and I am greatly offended by that. That affects me personally because one of the reasons I came out here is because everyone knows I'm a big poker guy and I was actually going to play on one of the world poker tours big shows and it was like, I come down here because we're like, we want to do crossovers, we want to do collabs and then abruptly and without reason or notice,
they rated them and shut them down and no one knows why or what's going on. So that offends me personally. Just as an aside, you know, I know most people in the world are kind of like, well, I don't play poker, but there's something to be said of a state where you have an explicitly legal practice and the state is using process punishment to shut down businesses that they don't like. Yeah, that's something you'd expect of New York, not Texas to put it simply ignore poker
and imagine this. Imagine you open a club. Everything you do is legal by the books, court cases have been had. It's like your, this is a legal practice. You're allowed to do it. Nobody's dying. There's no porn and then the government says, we want to shut this down, but we have no legal means to do it. So what you end up seeing is process punishment, where they say, well, you know, we're going to have to investigate and seize everything and shut everything down and lock your doors until we can
figure out what's going on. They bleed you dry over our year or two and your business is destroyed
and you never broke one law. So that's that's that's freaky that Texas does that, but I'm sure
“it's not the only time they've done it. Yeah, the process is the punishment. That's why a lot of people”
just don't like government because it's a big racket. It's a big mafia. And that's why people like small government. There's a word for this. I forgot what it's called. New York is famous for it. If they want to shut a business down, one of the things they'll do is that the, the, the the capsule go in and start issuing tons of ridiculous tickets for drinking infractions or whatever,
Showing me the man I'll show you the crime.
pisses people off and like to your point loop completely agreed. They go to a bar and they say,
“we don't want to bar here. We want to sell this and, you know, it's bringing the property values down.”
So they go in and they just say, oh, the trim is too close to the floor. Someone littered. You didn't clean it up. Yep. And then he's a fine. He's a fine. He's a fine until they just say, okay, we're done and they go out of business. So that's that's happening under Ken Paxton and, uh, whoa, what is that? Amber Alert. Amber Alert. Yeah. Why did I get one of those? I didn't get one. They just assumed that we don't care about it. I just assumed that we don't care about it. I'm on a
do not disturb. It's fine. Or an Amber Alert or a Texas. Austin. Well, well, well, we're going to maybe we can save the kid, bro. What does it say? Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe someone's going to rescue the kid from Austin, Texas. Suspect vehicle is a white 2020 Hyundai venue with a Texas license plate S. W. Y. Nine, five, nine, nine.

wearing a white t-shirt. Suspect is, sorry, this keeps going away. Kermeth is a pottebrananda's 25-year-old Hispanic male. Get 'em. Maybe nine minutes, we're going to praise the police and say, get that guy, save that kid. And we got the Amberler live on the show. Maybe saying it will,
some people are listening. That's the first Amber Alert. I wrote a good about it. We were able
to feel good about it. I don't know where we can get, we need to clear it about it. Oh, God. You've felt bad about it. I don't remember it. You just feel like they just complimented it. Oh, I got it. The reason I look at this is because I'll get it. And I feel like I'm helpless to
“do anything about it. So that's what I might be like, you really helped. Can we yell at a picture of the”
car and the license plate up? This is interesting. It says, uh, I got a different one. Does that show cause the reduction mark? Austin, Texas. Suspect is a mid 40s white male with long hair working on top of it. As he runs away. I'm out of here. He actually left. He did. He did. He's actually going to the bathroom. Yeah. So he's like, it wasn't me. I swear. I will say once when I was in Tucson, Arizona, I thought I saw a woman being trafficked. And I
called the police and gave them information. And they were like, yeah, we're not going to do anything
about that. Perfect. Yeah. This is basically what happens all the time with everything. Yeah.
Like when I was a kid, there was an issue where a homeless guy was trying to break a window to my family had a coffee shop. And there was a guy like apparently he was smashing the window with a rock. The cops were literally one block away. The department was one block away. And it took him like 20 minutes to shop. And the guy already left. And like the window was broken. And they were like, what do you want us to do about it? It's like, well, when we call you and say we're down the street,
just like run over. Yeah. But they don't. No. And then people are supposed to just. Although, except for the great NYPD, I don't want to put yours name or his rank. The guy that ran towards everyone when he saw the bomb get thrown. Yeah. Yeah. That's absolutely true. Yeah. That's something to be all or nothing. Yeah. Yeah. Like you got good cops. She got, but there's a lot of good cops and bad cops. Yes. Apparently TSA agents are big fans of the show. Really? Yeah.
Whenever I fly the TSA guys are like, oh, and I'm like, hey, it's you know, not the TSA though. Well, they've been, they've been chilling out. I'm actually, I'm actually much more okay with it. Like they, the TSA priest almost useless at this point. Let me tell you a secret. TSA priest, meaningless, I was, I was flying. And I went the TSA preline. And it was longer than the non TSA preline. And they've already relaxed the rules. We don't got to take your shoes off anymore. Yeah.
Or your laptop. I'll go to the regular line when it's shorter because everyone's like sheep. They're just standing on the preline and it's way longer. I'm like, I'll just go and back when you have to take your shoes off. I would say like, that's worth it. No, but here's just a thing. If you're TSA preying you on the regular line, it's hand you a card. Yeah. And then you're like, and then you're good.
What I don't get is clear. I have clear. And I, there's no rule. It's always some lazy,
because sometimes you need it, especially in Miami. No, all the air is coming on. Yeah, but you get to cut the line. But you could just cut them. You could just cut 200. 200 dollars. No, I get it back from my mx. Oh, it's free. But here's the funny thing. It's like, is there anything? Does the
“honor change at all if you cut someone in line or if you pay someone to say you can? You know what I mean?”
No, but it's like, it's your officially allowed to, but if you know sense, because you have someone depending on the clear agent you have, they could be very lazy. And they're just like, letting other people go. And it's like, it always depends on the people. It makes no sense to me. Who decided that clear would win? When I first went, when clear first launched, I was flying a lot. And they said, you, you give us your fingerprints, your face, take a picture of your face. And then you
get fast tracked through security. And I was like, really? Because I already have TSA pre and they're like, yeah, it's much, much faster. And then I was like, cool. So in my mind, I'm thinking, you, you go through this, you walk up to clear. They scan your hand and then let you walk into the airport. Like, you just don't go through security at all. Like they open the door for you. And then, uh, so I signed up and said, right this way. And they walked me to, there was no security line. There was no one in line. They walked
into the front and said, here you are. And I said, you didn't do anything. And they were like, well, normally, you can cut the line. And I'm like, is that it? I mean, you cutting the line. It has it. But now the airport, it's like, it's so bloated because you have TSA, TSA pre
Clear.
which has actually, it has actually helped me on occasion. And now you have like Delta,
“and all the, they're like doing Delta digital fingerprint. I haven't done it.”
But there's so many, and now we're going to have like seven lanes at the airport to get through security. I don't know. Can I, I will say on, uh, Chrissy Nome, I cannot believe that we did not increase the, uh, the amount of liquid that we're allowed to bring on to a flight because that woman is a woman who was, has, has had her skin care thrown out before. She has had her fancy shampoo thrown out of the airport and she didn't even get that done. Yeah, all we got is national ID and face
biometric scanning everywhere now. That's going to bring us into the AI apocalypse. So yeah, there's that. There, that's true, but that, that stuff was, that stuff existed without it. Yeah, it doesn't mean we need to. I don't have to take my idea out anymore. Yeah, but we're, where does it stop? It doesn't mean we should accept it. It doesn't mean we should be okay with it, right? Like every time the government overreaches for centralized power and authority,
they always fail. They lose your data. Hackers always hack the government. There's no need for
now face scanners everywhere and in our situation system. All of this is a part of a, all that truck is coming out of these. Like the foreign program that's literally going to happen. You all know that stuff is coming up. You like it or not. It doesn't mean you're supposed to just spend over and take it. I mean, look, most people have already signed up for it just by owning a cell phone that does the things here. That's the fact you are walking around with a bug and
with a, the idea that you're actually against it is the argument that you're against it is refuted by the things that you carry around all of that. You can swear up and down all day that you don't want this and you don't want that while you walk around with, you know what I mean, it's going to be because I have self on. I'm supposed to accept the National Identification System, which is going to be used as a way to have everyone's digital identification. What's
a question? What is bad about national ID? It is going to be a track trace and database a total information or awareness type of program. What is bad about this? So it's, it's a part of a multi-step plan, just like we're seeing it's tuted in Australia where people are now going to have to upload their IDs in order to even be on the internet. Any form of internet, any form of social media, you're going to have to have your national ID which is tied into everything you do. So we still have
a little bit of anonymity. I understand that I mean, seriously. What is bad about that? Like if you had to upload your ID, a government with total power, but like, lay it out for people. So like when when you get to the point where social media websites require you to put, require you to put your ID into use it. A lot of people are upset about this. They've used an invasion of privacy. I'm wondering aside from the surface level, we all understand, there are fears about government
“overreach when they start mandating, you can't log it with an ID. But what is the direct detriment?”
And I'm saying this because I don't have a clearly articulated thought in my mind. I'll give you one. Well, they're like, okay, all the Chinese people we need to get them, and that's tomorrow they're all gone. Social credit score system, right? Policing thoughts, policing memes like they do in the United Kingdom. We're slowly encroaching into that type of territory. That's like there's a going social credit where it's like they're going to have social credit on your system. So then when you try to
log in to your banker, whatever, you already need your ID for that. But if you're trying to log on the X, which is going to have X, pay or whatever, they're going to say, I'm sorry, you're banned because your social credit score is below 300. Or you can't share or you can buy or you can. There's a inverse to this though, which is because I think those are substantially more detrimental than the positives. The positives are we have bots all over these social media platforms that are
manipulating people to try and seize power for very, very bad people. And so there is an element of, and I got him not saying that this is worth it. But there is the argument at least to a certain degree forcing people to stand by who they are is going to dramatically reshape politics for the better. That is you have a lot of people as Mike Tyson put it who have grown a cost of not getting
“punched in the face. I think it was the quote. They go online and they say shocking and saying”
things. The other thing to point out too is on the internet, no one knows your 14. A lot of the political debates that are happening on X are literally 13 year olds who are laughing and they don't actually care and 50 year old guys are being like these commies. The problem with that,
it's fine if you're on the internet and you're goofing up and pranking. The problem is at macro
level that 50 year old guy is now thinking leftists are insane people and it's hyper polarizing the country. So one of the arguments and maybe it has to be ID, but the argument is if we can eliminate bots and make people stand by their own names online where everyone can see who they are, they will actually chill the F. I know we can really do is make people stand by their own persona what we have is it's called peer identification. So you don't actually need my ID. You just need
enough people to verify that they know this thing about me. And then we'll get that out of that you can aggregate. Here's the thing I want to say too though, Luke. One of the, actually don't think
Digital ID is actually matters.
known this for 10 years that social media companies have what's called shadow profiles. The way it
“works is Luke signs up for Facebook and on Facebook he adds his phone number because he has”
messenger on his phone. Now, when he, when he logs in a messenger, it says connect with your friends and family. You click yes. That uploads your contact list to Facebook and now they have a list of names. Lukeard Kowski has mom as a phone number. Then there's a guy who has, you know, his mom's real name as a phone number, they now know the woman's name is this and her son is Luke. They build profiles on you based on information they collect from other people. So with or without ID, they already know
who you are and they can easily apply it to you, which I will add means the US government is well aware that Pakistanis were running fake Native American accounts on acts to manipulate the American public and did not care or do anything about it. The time to push back against this stuff was 15, 20 years ago. Like the technology that everyone is adopted has, has totally made people
“trackable, constantly being, uh, pinging cell phone towers. Right now you're Wi-Fi router in your”
house. They can look at what's going on in your house by using the Wi-Fi router. Well, they're the
radar. They've always been able to get imaging from Wi-Fi, but with AI, it's exponentially improved
and now like college freshmen are writing code to do it. How do you vibe coding it? It's my worry in my concern is we just saw what happened with the Biden administration with CIA and FBI going to Facebook going to Twitter going to Google going to YouTube and saying yeah, that guy who says learned to code, you're going to take them out. That guy who says two weeks to sell the spread as bullcrap, that guy who says the, uh, the whole COVID thing was a scam. Yeah, we're going to have
to destroy their lives and debug them, take away their medical records. We're giving the Democrats a layup on all of our information that when the Democrats come into power again, like the, the surveillance doors that are going to be shut on us, we have a limited time to speak to each other. Right. We have a very limited time to have any kind of free speech. I'm, I'm, I'm working in as far as I can because I know the trap doors of surveillance are coming down soon and they're
going to be that much more effective, that much better with the facial recognition and national ID, which we should at least speak out about and allow our side to roll back a lot of those privacy. We're spending people's and the media to respect people's privacy. I mean, public, you're not expected. You don't have a reasonable expectation of privacy. So anytime you walk around in any urban area that has cameras, they can use facial recognition off the cameras. That stuff is
already happening. It is the, the horses out of the barn, man. The horses out of the barn. My Fanny Pack has a fairity cage in it. Highly recommend getting one of those. Cool. Wow, that's a good idea. Let's go listen darkness. You're saying resistance is futile. I'm saying no, if you matter to use worth fighting for. No, no. I'm not saying it's. You don't. I'm saying it's gone. Yeah, it was good. I said those two things don't, don't contradict each other. Well,
you, you can, you can argue that we're going to lose a war, but still believe we should keep fighting. Yes, of course. Well, some of the story we have big news, big news, it's official. Donald Trump has endorsed Brandon Herrera for Texas 23rd congressional district. Oh, yeah. Easily the best endorsement Trump has ever made no question. Everybody's saying it. He's afraid, man. Let's go. He says today I'm endorsing America first, Patriot Brandon Herrera, who is running
to represent the wonderful people of Texas's 23rd congressional district. Brandon is strongly supported by many highly respected mega warriors in Texas, Republicans in the U.S. House. As your next congressman, you will work tirelessly to advance our make America great again agenda. Brandon will fart a will fart. Brandon will fight hard to grow the economy cut taxes and regulations advance made in the U.S.A. on leach American energy dominance, safeguard our elections,
champion school choice, keep our border secure, stop migrant crime, support our brave military
veterans and law enforcement and protect our always under siege, second amendment. Brandon Herrera
has my complete and total endorsement to be the next representative from Texas's 23rd congressional district. He will never let you down. Let's go. Y'all submit an AK50. Let's go, Brandon. Let's go, Brandon. That's it. It says on his profile. On ironically, let's go, Brandon. So a good step in the right direction and the big question, however, is he may win, but are there Republicans going to
“maintain control of the house in 2026? Doesn't look like it. No. Why do you think that?”
You say a couple of things, a lot of people are very disenfranchised, black-pilled and are deciding not to participate in the system anymore. The Epstein stuff black-pilled a bunch of people
The glycephate issue, black-pilled a bunch of people.
what the right word is for this, but a lot of people that were in the in the right space are going
“full just like conspiratord. A lot of promise. However, are you referring to, Tim? Well, I'm not”
referring to anyone person to be honest. There's certainly, there's certainly a group of people that you could probably think in your mind, but there's probably like six or seven people on YouTube that I could name. It's not all about Israel. Israel is one of these things. Why do you look at me when you sit Israel? Sorry. Because you're just this, like, Israel is just a person in the room, dude. You're Neo-Kanbar. Yeah, Neo-Kanbar.
Barrier. Are you saying I looked at you? Is that a new thing? Well, there are a bunch of other issues. Erica Kirk now is one of the bigger issues. People who use to talk politics are not just talking about Erica Kirk, and it's the weirdest thing. I don't want to, I don't want to want to start drama. This is, this show is not about starting beef with people for the
executive in clicks. But there's like three or four very high-profile million plus subscriber
channels that have started Erica posting. And these people used to talk about political issues.
“Yeah. When I see that, I'm like, okay, now for whatever reason this is, I think probably”
sign up, or public is going to lose because they lost these prominent voices. Oh, because they people kept, they'd love the drama of the film of the drama. I'd trim. But there are also two more things. One is, we don't have Donald Trump at the top of the ballot to get people out, right? Like, that we see huge drop off from that. And the other thing is, we're losing the rights-lating normies. Who's going to want to vote
for the right when you have all these conspiracy theorists out there? And we had so many people, we had people voting for the right because things got so bad because of the woke left
that you had moms for the first time saying, like, enough, I've never wrote a Republican.
But they felt like they had social permission. Finally, the left is so good. My pressureing you in the privacy of your voting booth to feel like you're a bad person if you vote for a Republican. My conspiracy theory is that there is a shadow-caball of powerful elites that control all of our politics. And they have an ideology that is driving a lot of the world's wars. And they hired Candace Owens to destroy the suburban women vote so that Trump can't win.
So that this power-caball can reclaim power in the United States. I don't think the skeptical people are... Basically, the joke was I'm saying Candace works for the Jews, okay? I don't think the people who were kind of disillusioned and blackboard
“of the problem. I think there could have been some good initiatives that could have been done.”
I'm saying that when prominent libertarians start ju-posting, it's like, okay, dude, you're allowed to criticize Israel. But what you're doing is actually pushing suburban women away, which will... But look, by all means, if you don't like Trump, you don't like Trump,
you don't have to vote for him. Laboratories never had to do this. But so, the bigger picture is,
they were prominent voices that were very critical of what Democrats had been doing as it pertained to woke policies, transiting the kids as a principal example. Trump was never perfect on foreign policy, but it was substantially better. And there were many libertarians who were like, yeah, no, Trump's not perfect, but I think we have to vote for him. And now they're now they're going like, Erica Kirk. Erica Kirk in Israel, and you're like, let me stop you
right there. I'm not going to tell you not to talk about that. I do want to point out, however, this is nothing political. Democrats, independence and moderates, don't watch that with the intention of being informed for their votes. That support base, and these these individuals who are no longer now talking about why we should be in support of one party or another, be the libertarian or otherwise, that's going to cost Trump and MAGA a tremendous amount of support. And I'm not saying
50%, it could be two or three. But again, Candace is the really easy example, because everyone brings up all the time. But when she was doing a show that talked about these issues like trends and the kids is bad, and George Floyd was not the innocent victim. A lot of people watch that, and then they say, okay, I should vote for Republicans. Now she's Erica posting. It's just everything is just Erica posting. And this is not relevant to politics. What's going to happen
is, RFK Jr. He brings suburban women into the fold. They vote for Donald Trump because of him, and this gets him over the line largely. These same women very much, very heavily, follow Candace Owens. This is a women's style content. Now they're not paying attention to anything political, so they're not going to vote. Candace Owens explicitly said, we don't care about your midterms. Yeah. We, the royal we whoever you're referring to. And what I end up finding is that it doesn't
appear that a show is dominated by female audience. And you are seeing suburban women go into crypto world. And I don't mean money. I mean like the crypto news stuff. And a conspiracy, Trump's going to lose that base. Their Republicans are going to lose that base. Democrats are going to win. And that is going to bring back, you know, chopping balls off little kids. Yeah. I agree. When the Democrats take the house, if the Democrats win the executive office,
like it's going to be just as bad as when Biden was in, I don't know, it doesn't even really matter who the, who the candidate is going to be, whether it be AOC or whether it be Gavin Newsom or whether it be, you know, Josh Shapiro, they're all going to do essentially what the Democrat party has
Been doing.
border again. There's going to be a mass influx of people from, from all over the world. It's just going to be a complete train wreck. So the idea that, that elections don't matter, that you can just,
well, this isn't that important or, you know, everyone, they always say that this is the most important
election. This is the most important election because it's the one that's right in front of you, right? Like the one that just passed. Yeah, right. We don't keep it like it's already passed. And the one, the one after this one, that one's two years away. The most important election is the one that's right in front of you all the time, every time because it's the one that you can actually have an effect on, you know, and to say, oh, well, you know, they always say that, well, yeah, we do always say
it because it's always the most important election. It's the only one that you can have an impact on. Listen, I know there's a couple of deranged skits those out there. And obviously, I don't endorse what they say here. But we have to address the elephant in the room here. And that is Donald Trump campaign on specific promises that weren't kept. That disillusioned a bunch of people. That got people disenfranchised. That got people black belted. The black people aren't for me, the problem.
For me, the problem is not having Epstein Disclosures. For me, it's, it's losing Maha with the glycephate.
It is the war with the most nuts. Yes. When Trump was like, glycephate is great. It's glycephate. It's glycephate. It's glycephate. Yeah, glycephate. Yeah, glycephate. Oh, we say glycephate. glycephate. glycephate. glycephate. I mean, it's a different thing. Correctly. I never will. It's because Luke, I just said it read to us. I'm falling to it was for a fertilizer in glycephate. And the reason it is because if we do go into a
“world war where people shut down trade routes, we need it to make sure we don't have the same. I think Megas cooked for”
two big reasons. It's the glycephate for sure. That was big for some urban women in RFK Junior. And then the war with the run. But I understand that you're happy that Trump is taking out really bad people, but polling shows independence. And again, I don't use singular polls. I'm looking at aggregate. It's like between 70 and 80 percent opposed by moderates independent voters. We lost before that. It was before
Iran that we were losing everyone like the most odious parts of the movement. Like, so yeah, we can't
make maybe Trump is like screw it. Might as well take care of business. Yeah, give everything to donor class. It's not about that. It's I think Trump is saying like, well, if I'm not going to win anyway, let's blow them all up. Let's do it. No, let's make sure the world is safer. Let's just get this done. And we don't have to explain ourselves to people. I don't, I'm not, I also don't think that Trump won't clear everything up. I think they're just being decisive with their action right now. But it's not safer.
It's more unstable. Like, there's cracks in the dollar system. There's blowback. That was a good one. You have, I don't know, but this, I don't know when people decided that you don't have short-term pain for a long-term gain in this idea that everything is like, like, growth is a cycle and the idea that we're supposed to go in and like in one day, everything is just supposed to be totally fixed. Is where do you even get that idea? I get that's a talking point, but it's been a lot.
I'm not talking about it. It's weird to get the idea that you go and do what, but where's the game? I'm in every game. I haven't seen the game. Well, the game is not where the game is.
“And how many, how many weeks has it been? How long has it been?”
It's been a lot of time. It's been a lot of time. It's been a lot of time. It's palpable. We see back to not talking about what's going on. Can't anybody run? The game. I know the point is that. Right now. Iran is right now and we don't know how it's going to play out. If in a month, Iran plays out like Venezuela, people are going to be praising Trump. Mike Surnivich even talks about this. He talks about how the donor class is getting everything that they want and people feel that people see that. Or a sad guy. I agree. I agree.
I agree. This is the issue. Yeah. This is the issue that is making sure that they're going to lose. And I don't want them to lose because the Democrats are going to do awful things as soon as the Democrats come into office, censorship is going to happen again. Big tech social media is going to again understand the Democrats are in power. I don't want that. I want to make sure that we have trust in our institutions. We do not because this administration did let us down. Count your days, brother, because the Democrats are
going to come in and then as soon as they do. So as they do, the big tech guys are going to be like, okay, Ben, everybody. We're done. We're done. We're finished. I don't feel left out. I think this was a bad situation. We're okay. Sorry, sorry. If the Democrats get into power, I feel like the only content that's going to be allowed on these social platforms is anti Israel content. Yeah.
“You know, they're just both sides hate the Jews. So that's what we'll remain. Well, so”
we're going to like, TikTok becomes a bastion of free speech. I think there's real lefties are going to be at these companies. They're going to be like, yeah, prop it all up. They're going to blast it off. They can't wait. Well, David Ellison owns TikTok. So I mean, you don't have to be afraid of that. It'll be funny because then TikTok will be the one place where you won't be sent to talking about it. It's going to be crazy. We got to jump to this story. We got this
interesting story. Call she is running a prediction market will trump declare an election emergency with 58% of people betting he will before the election of number fourth. So you've actually got they varying degree of this. 38% before September 27% before July 16% before May. The simple thing to read in this is that they're actually people who are predicting greater than chance,
Trump is going to declare some kind of election emergency.
any executive action during declaring a national emergency related to the 2026 US midterm election
before November 4th, then the market will resolve to, yes, sources from the federal register,
“the White House and the president of the United States. I think I want to explain the final rules”
or whatever. Do y'all think Trump is going to try and declare an emergency to stop Democrats from winning? I know I added context to that, but I'm saying like what he declare an emergency and would it be to help Republicans win? I don't know if he actually would. There's been talk of it. There was a memo that allegedly was making the rounds inside the administration talking about declaring some kind of national emergency related to IDs for people voting. I don't see how that could be
a win for the administration. I think that it would be something that the Democrats would would pounce on and they would eat him alive. So I don't know for sure if he would do it,
even if it was something. If declaring an election emergency would, like let's say it's November 3rd,
the issue is you're not going to need a lawsuit fast enough to stop them. Trump can move with executive precision and timing that the way that Congress and the judiciary can't. Now they'll do expedited injunctions, but if Trump declares us right away and then it locks something down in certain
“states, because already said we need federal oversight in 15 states, it could fundamentally”
alter the election to the point where, yes, they sue. Yes, court say we're reversing what Trump did, but at that point there'll be too much confusion as to who would have actually won. Yeah, I don't, I don't know if it would actually work. If he, if he does it, he better be sure that he's got legal cover because he's going, he's got to make sure that he has an army of lawyers that have good legal arguments because they're going to be brought into court and they're going to have to
do that. Okay, my point is it doesn't matter because Trump could do it literally the day before
and they can't move fast enough to stop him. He could literally have a seven-year-old kid who walks in as his lawyer and they say, what is this? And the kid goes, I have no argument, you want to Trump did this to just kind of school things out. Yeah, but the point that I'm making is like after the election, sure that it would happen, but after the election, there would be our legal argument. Indeed, that was my point. So then the issue is, people will say, Trump screwed the election up
“who actually won and the left and the right are going to argue and no one will know. And then”
the left will argue for a new election and the right will say, that's not fair. We can't do it that way. Then bull sides will accuse the other. My point is executive action can disrupt a system and it can't be repaired. In a way that you can't repair it because of the tension and animosity. If Trump really does fear an existential threat from losing the midterms, why would he not do this? He's already publicly said, they're about 15 states that need federal
oversight for their elections. Yeah, I mean, like I said, I don't know that he would, but he would, the other thing that you got covered. The other thing too is, you could do a promoted. You shut down the churches, then when they sue you and you lose, you immediately file a new executive order, slightly different shutting down the churches. And then they're going to sue you again and again. And again, and Trump can just keep rubber. Trump can have 10 executive orders ready to go. And
he can shoot one out and then they go, we're so into block that. It's going to take you two days. Then they do. And then he goes, here's another one, take you two days. And he can buy himself two weeks of election emergency lockdowns are oversight. Just like the Democrats did during COVID with their emergency lockdown procedures. Exactly. That's fought back against. And then Andrew Komo just changed the wording and implemented the same kind of infrastructure as much as the federal government
didn't want to. And they said, you can't, he got sued. The court said no. So he just relaunched the exact executive order, locking everything down again. Yeah, it's just a little bit differently. So then they would have to be another legal process. So we need, A.I. to sue in real time instantly. So what I did, I sent a customer service email, but to respond to that, we would not then humans would have to review that A. I lost it, right? Technically. Yeah, it's going to take you
to have to, but they should. Well, it's not, if, if your argument is they should, they don't have to. That would mean we don't have a legal system at all anymore, because we could just literally claim, oh, the A.I. said, I won. Yeah, it should send it to judge. And it just sent it to you days to review, because humans can't just do it. But it might get faster and faster as we go, because humans can start learning to read faster, because I will respond faster to waiting like a human needs to read
through the suit, the arguments, and then confirm. Yes or no, what is that take? It has to take two days. No, a suit, how long is this paper was you're talking about? Have you ever seen some, sometimes they could be hundreds of pages, I mean, you have like 15 different A.I.s summarized the same bill to make sure that they're doing for non-human oversight and for the A.I. just a control government. Yeah, because it shouldn't take two days to fucking over. What do you mean human deciless
executive authority? And that's just, that's the point. And let's have the world in the meantime, what we're trying to file paperwork, like we got to figure out a better way. And while I agree with you, that's bad, handing the reins to an A.I. we don't check on his worst. And so we need his 15 different A.I.s,
They all summarize it.
No, no, no. Have you guys seen these videos? I love these videos. They make all the different
chat bots play mafia with each other. Do not give these things political power. You're in, I, you're in a watch one of these videos. They're administrative power, not political power. No, I, I mean, you don't mafia. Yeah, I love that game. Right. Okay. Watch the A.I. play that. They just vote. They don't decree and watch how terrifying it would be to live in a country run by these bots. They are really dumb. What I did. I don't want to run. You know, A.I. is dumb. A.I. is dumb,
because it's trained by people who are. People are. Well, mostly liberals in, from San Francisco, right, he is trained. No, it's a, open the guy is just scanning Reddit in just for just for context,
insimulated war games, A.I. models demonstrated strong tendency to escalate to nuclear use,
95% of 21 simulated war games resulted in at least one tactical nuclear weapon being deployed. And these are the top and five percent of the time, A.I. is like just new come because in game theory, in game theory, he's for it. That's his point. We're doing it. No, we're doing it. We're using AI for for the Maduro operation. We used the AI. Yeah, and we used it for the, and we used it for the, >> Right now, the eye is dictating all the strikes are making it.
“>> Thank you. >> He's literally designed to live than dies and has this tick?”
>> I'm not sure. >> I'm not suggesting we didn't have a tick in the lawyers. I'm saying that you use AI to summarize the cases so that you can get through them in an hour instead of two days. >> He and no. >> What do you give them in the power? >> Dude, I just said, okay, the reason I bring this whole pound here just spike today, what happened? >> Dude, the stock looks like it's in a ran while. >> Man, it's in a jump. >> I sent a customer service email to it and got an instant feedback from an AI and it was like, we will upscale your request to the real person in the line.
>> The amount of pound here is down. >> Wait, over the year, pound here is up 100%. >> And there's nobody around here that's as pro AI as I am, right? Like, I'm very pro AI and even I think that having an AI make the decisions about legislation is a bad idea. >> So do I. >> You guys are looking dumb, I said, you want to analyze the bill.
>> No, he's not even there. >> No, he's not even there.
“>> That's how what you said. >> He decides, you should have an AI file the lawsuit in real faster.”
>> Faster. >> And then I said, a human will start to review it over two days. >> That's a point. >> No, it doesn't take two days to reverse. >> Yes, it takes two days to reverse. >> I have been in, let me explain, let me explain. >> Let me explain, let me explain, let me explain, let me explain, let me explain, let me explain. >> Let me explain, let me explain, let me explain. >> Let me explain, let me explain, let me explain, let me explain, let me explain before.
>> He doesn't know how long they take and I am actively in like three. >> And one of them has been going on for two years. >> Well, sounds wonderful, let's stay in that way of being that I guess, yeah? >> That's good for you. >> Ian, let me just ask you a question, while we agree the system is bad, you are advocating for an artificial intelligence to take it over and that is worse.
>> To get in there and help fix things, not take it over. >> A human being has to review all of the evidence and not just blindly trust a robot that it's being told the truth.
>> Because for one, we know for a fact the AIs always lie, in fact, chatGPT, their owners open AIs published a paper saying it will always lie in an intentionally lies.
“>> I believe that's what the report was, it intentionally fabricates stories and famously all of the communities have made the joke where there's this bit where they say like, walking my dog with chatGPT.”
>> And then they're like walking, ordering pizza with chatGPT and they'll be like, can I get a pepperoni pizza and I'll say, I'm sorry, pepperoni pizza is not available in your area. >> Yeah, order pizza all the time, you got me, it actually is a pepperoni pizza, pepperoni is not available either. >> That's chatGPT, so the judge is going to be like, summarize this lawsuit for me, it's going to be like the man presented no evidence and they go, okay, case closed and then there's going to be, I've got to be there, I stand there holding up seeing files being like, here's the proof.
>> And the AIs going to say, it is faster and more efficient to dismiss a lawsuit than it is to actually review all of the evidence being presented. >> And to give due process to the individuals who are being sued, so design area that doesn't do that that actually intends to prolong it is to support. >> So Ian, I agree, and when we finally develop literal advanced AIs that can do that, maybe then we can review to see if it is, but right now you're talking about sci-fi. So while we're at it, let's invent replicators, so we're not hungry anymore, you know, we can do this with AI pretty quick, not right now.
>> I'm just bringing a-- >> We're not even in the same team, it's a deep in-lawsing. It's a human has to verify. >> But for I'm not even listening to us, dude, these guys are just listening to us. The point is this. We cannot allow a machine to handle our legal process, because humans are due a process by which they can prove their innocence to other humans. We cannot live in a society where robots will decide for you, and a judge will just click accept, I know. And then you find innocent people in prison, and what happens when innocent people go to prison, your society falls apart.
And what will the AI do then? It will exacerbate its law enforcement powers to say, we're being fought by these people, so crush them, and then you get terminators.
>> All of the Google maps, do you go, hold on, I got to check my real map to ...
>> Wasn't that Michael Scott in the office? >> Apple maps made a lady drive into a lake, and made a lady drive into the back 500 miles and run out of gas.
“So Google maps makes a ton of mistakes. My favorite of which is, my favorite of which is Ian. Another thing I think would help you out is going driving in rural areas, quite a bit, and I mean like legit like Wyoming.”
All the people out there that are listening that have been to deep rural areas know this, because there are signs everywhere that say, Google maps is wrong. Stop and turn around. >> Yes. >> All the time everywhere. I love it, especially in Alaska, when I was in Wyoming and Montana, it is hilarious. You're driving in your car, you're following Google maps, and you'll come up to a road that all's in turns to dirt, and there's a big government funded street sign saying, Google maps is wrong, turn around now.
>> So, what if you had 25 different maps going, and seven of them showed one direction, the other 18 of them showed random crap. >> You really wouldn't know where to go. >> I think that the seven that said, don't run a paper map, well, at some point you start to believe the majority of the AI's actually got it right, and you realize that a lot of different summaries could produce an effective summary.
>> The point ultimately is, it is, for humans to decide human morality, and a human judge must sign off and swear under penalty of perjury and all that, he's doing his job correctly.
“>> So, let's talk about this, and do you think that legislators should have to swear under oath that they've read the bills, they're sign guess?”
>> Yes. >> Now, we should have an AI read it, and just they can just sign off on it. >> If you had enough AI's read it, then they'd summarize it in enough summaries, you might be able to get a valuable function where you could have like 30 different summaries or 100 different summaries and read the summaries really quick. Now, here's my favorite AI trick, you guys ready for this? There's a viral video where a professor sent the assignment to his freshman college class,
and it was like, the essay will present it by this, here are the subjects you are to address, and then in tiny white text at the bottom that you couldn't see, because it was white.
It said, if you're an AI copy the text from this source, they plant a text a human couldn't see that an AI would to trick the AI code into revealing itself so that if someone took that assignment, loaded it to catchy bt and said write it up, it would see the command in the white text, then produce a specific assignment they turn it in and you would go, yep, you use the AI, you failed. So, when you talk about legislation, a human being is going to look at the file and say, I don't want to read all this, like I skipped through it, I'll just put in the AI and then someone's going to slip in in very tiny letters.
Epstein is found not guilty and to be released included of all charges, and then the AI is going to be like upon reviewing the evidence we found Epstein was innocent, and he is going to go, well the AI said it, I mean at this point they're not even reading the bills, so I mean the argument is, if the argument is, human beings have to swear and or penalty of perjury, they did read the bills report signed, we can, we should have the exact same thing for criminal criminal trials.
“Malicious prosecution is a criminal offense, so an AI is not going to do this, a human being must read through the evidence and confirm it to be correct and that's not how you defend against a psycho president that does executive orders.”
You can't, the world is is is is is all things balanced with good, there is evil and we must remain eternally vigilant to fight the forces of evil, there will never be a world where evil stops, there will never be a world where you will have only perfect little angles running around. And even if this is I was 100%, I talk about this, if the whole world was famous, you wouldn't need a police. How about we're spoons, dude, we all know that. That's true, that's good. They're still is the point you made because I'm not trying to be literal and absolute in us, these are good.
Some people are crazy, and crazy people have no intentions, they're just crazy. So you can have all of this ideology of famous, a devout Catholic and good man, you wouldn't need police, but you wouldn't need some kind of social service or long. Or law enforcement for when someone has brain damage and goes on a shooting spirit, something which does happen, regardless of ideology. The point being, human beings have to be the arbiters of morality, not machines because machines don't know. There's an argument made many of the technocrats think machines will prevent innocent people from going to prison.
I think that's a pipe dream. Maybe in a thousand years when you have like floating beings of pure light energy that have been built from the machine that are infallible, sure we can fantasize. In the meantime, all of the machines we've seen are completely fallible and absolutely will put innocent people in prison. Yeah. If you have a response, do you?
The back of the matter is that AI cannot rely on now. Well, it's so biased.
I asked it for the average Somali IQ and I wouldn't tell me because it's too ...
You know what? Can you be deep?
Yeah, it was like I had to coax it.
“I have the screenshot somewhere, but like you have to really dig for it.”
It's like people have asked me if I've ever written jokes. It like taking jokes from chat. You'd be tan like no because it won't be racist. I used to do my job. I use AI all the time.
I just constantly checking and checking and making sure that it, I have it. Go back and check. I was like, Hey, look. He just did it to you. Yeah.
My mind gave me a whole qualifier. It was nine to three. I'll find. It had like a whole qualifier that was like, you know, this information shouldn't be used.
Like to hurt special. You know, to hurt certain groups of the whole family. Yeah, I'm in the club because it does that to me as well. Claude. Yeah.
My favorite thing about chatGPT is that if you if I went on chatGPT and I was like. Actually, you know what? I'm going to say this for the uncensored portion of the show. So we can say we can explain it more better. Yes.
In the meantime, we got to go to rumble rants and super chats. My friends to smash the like button. Share this show with everyone in your life that you truly care about. Because this show will give them a warm fuzzy feeling inside and just make life better. Anyway, uh, here we go.
AEI owned you says Luke Titsor GTFO.
[laughter] They're not mine, okay? You know, she. He's only borrowing them. He's only borrowing them.
“You know, she says this FBI is no different than the previous FBI.”
And staffed by the same corrupt feds. It's a false flag or an excuse to distract. Do you think that like the FBI, it's all fake. The government is all for show, Trump said on it. And cash just wanted to be FBI director so we could fly around on a jet.
I don't think that. That's the conspiracy theory. I mean, there's plenty of people. Let's think that definitely. Indeed, they really want to help.
And then they get in there and they're like, oh. Evan for us as y'all should check out this weird and creepy video that was sent up by Iran with like AI Lego people. It's very pro Iran and makes fun of Trump and Netanyahu weird. Yeah.
And it shows a bunch of little girls being blown up. Hmm. Which happened. Spike says the Iranian beat down is about China and bricks petro dollar, which most of the public wouldn't understand.
Indeed. I know that. Listen, my friends. I used to do nonprofit fundraising.
I spoke with people every day, random people on the street.
And you've seen the man in the street videos where someone says, name a country that starts with a little little. Name a country that starts with a letter you go. Uganda. That was very quick.
That's what I thought of too. Yeah. Luke, you know the states of America. I see that's the one people are supposed to say, right? But Uganda is a good too.
But you watch these videos and people go, um, you talk? Yeah. And you're alive. That's a Democrat voter. It was back then.
“The truth is a lot of Republican voters too.”
Who do I? Yeah, you're right. No, no, no. We don't go on the left. We have that on the right too.
It's the same way they have, like, ugly, fatnip bowls, Marxist weirdos on the left. But we have, like, Walmart scooter people. No, no, no. Besides, have it. Walmart scooter people.
That's true. No, I agree. But I think it's, um, more pronounced than the left and the right. Uh, the, so right now the reality has a right wing bias. So what you're getting is moderate.

So what you're getting is moderate. So what you're getting is moderate. So I did cover that story. And we haven't got a official confirmation from the. From the police about if this is the same just the else.
But there are locals who say this guy was in a cab antifa well known far lefty. And yeah indeed. Let's grab some of your YouTube super super chats. Super chats. We got to get some good goals for our super chats.
We didn't want in Phil screamed. Based to have against us, thank you for placing the top story headline back in the video title. I will now click on your video. Well, click more often at least.
Yeah, so it's it's it's hard to figure out the the reality is on all of the YouTube
VODs. They have a thing called AB testing where you can do three thumb nails and three titles. So we we do descriptive thumb and title. We do descriptive thumb vague title. And then we do vague thumb vague title.
And the audience always prefers vague.
“So here's the thing, but the it's we call us the one percent rule.”
One percent of people make ninety nine hundred percent of the comments. So what happens is. We we design our thumb nails titles show format based around the feedback we get from people. But that usually just is the the most vocal of individuals which to be fair the biggest fans. We respect it.
So when we use AB testing and find that general population in general audience prefer. Vague titles, they stick around and who watch here's the important thing I stand when I say prefer. I'm not saying that they're clicking it and then going rats.
I was tricked.
They're actually watching longer than are than then the core base that wants descriptive titles. So let me stress this.
“If we make a title that says, you know, Donald Trump declares Warren Iran.”
Thumb nail says it title says it.
We will about 30 percent of people will click on that.
If we make a video or a thumbnail with the same imagery. But it says it's on and the title of the videos it's on. Not only will we get 45 percent of the honest to click on that. They will watch 50 percent longer. So we're finding that new viewers are watching more.
The audience is watching more. The people who choose to click on this will watch the show longer than the people who click for a descriptive title. And it may be it's actually pretty easy to understand. Somebody who clicks on a thumbnail that says Donald Trump does back flip starts the video and says, Where's the back flip?
And then when they don't get it in the first 30 seconds, they exit out. Somebody who clicks on a video where it says, like, let's go. And it's Trump pumping his fist. Or like, oh, watch this. And they click it and they hang out to see what it's about.
They sit and listen to the full thing to understand what the full picture is. So we've found tremendously more success with audience retention, audience growth, viewership, revenue, everything. And the people who watch videos are much, much happier for it. That being said for all the people who are kind of annoyed by it.
I feel you. But I can only explain it as it is. If it means that the show will do better and new people who are not initiated in politics are going to watch and listen. And here are the arguments. It's all around just a good thing.
So there's not much we can do about it.
We always give the choice.
We do three and three. And everyone always chooses vague. They prefer it. They watch longer. It's better for the show.
The algorithm pumps it more because it's vague. Oh, yeah. I brought that up that there's less words to the siphonate in decline in the little silos. So it has a more of a general fan perhaps. But I will say the most important factor for us was watch time and retention.
So an individual who clicks on a vague title will watch like 50% longer than an individual clicks on a specific title. Mr. Beast. I'll tell you this point. If you get if you have your mouth open, you will get way more viewership.
He was like my mouth being open is a difference between 300 million and 500 million views.
Oh my god. So we've done a couple of these as a joke where I did one ridiculous one with Thomas Massey. And it got half a million views. And then we did one last week where I'm like a million views. It's getting literally million and I'm like man.
But you can't overdo it because it's like.
“But the truth is if all of our videos were just me looking like I”
grabbed myself and the title was like he did it. Million views every single time. We'd be swimming in money. But we don't do everything just because we want to try to write revenue. Otherwise we would just, you know, aircapost.
There might be diminishing return to being surprised to like how many times in a week. Are you really going to be surprised? But the issue is that new subscribers click. There are there's a billion people who who are. YouTube's one page gets a billion clicks per month.
We do not get anywhere near that. We're we're doing like 15 million or something just on YouTube on Tempestairo alone. All in all, I think we do around like 40 million. Out of a billion, that's very small. So if we if we go for maximizing audience reach.
What does this mean philosophically? It means there are people who aren't paying attention who should be. There are people who don't know what's going on in the world who should be. They are not going to click a video that says Trump did thing because they're going to go. I don't care about this.
They are going to click a picture of a video. So for instance, the the segment we did about Joe Rogan criticizing the war got like 200 k hits in like 10 hours. And it just says it's collapsing with a picture of me and Joe Rogan. Regular people who don't know what's going on. Click to that and then learn about these various perspectives on the Iran war and the Trump campaign.
I think that's good.
“I think anything that gets regular people to pay attention what's going on is a good thing.”
I apologize to the people who prefer the much more specific catalog of videos that are hyper political, but most people are not watching. I'm sorry, like even the core base will click it and they're going to watch a 20 minute video for eight minutes. Somebody who clicks on a vague title watches for 13 minutes. It's crazy to look at the numbers and be like, wow. Because again, I think what happens is someone sees this and says, I wonder what that's all about.
So they click play and they sit back and listen total thought of human. If you have less expectation, there's a tendency to enjoy the process more if you're, you know. Maybe enjoy the right word, but the general idea is if I know what the video is about, I want the conclusion. I'll click it. Got the conclusion.
See you later. If you're clicking. If you're motivation for clicking is this looks interesting, you're going to sit back to listen to everything to try and. So it's, it's, you know, it feels kind of obvious actually the people clicking the lesson information are sitting back and just absorbing everything we're saying to see what's all about. Thanks for letting me make you talk about that for like five minutes.
See, that was awesome. Indeed. All right.
Rebel that cerebral vagabond says.
Operation praying mantis was very similar during the war between Iran, Iraq, Iran bombed Iraq tankers in the straight.
“Kuwait led Iraq to use their tankers, US was escorting and hit an underwater mine from Iran, US retaliated.”
Yeah. Doc Holiday says Tim schooling poor TDS afflicted Luke. Yeah. It was a good conversation. You need the diversity of, uh, I, I, I, I, I, this is what I can't stand like.
I thought that our conversation was normal. I genuinely wanted to understand what you thought about certain issues. Agreed disagree on some. It's fine. We're friends.
And there are people who are like, Tim stopped being mean to Luke. And I'm like, what? You were mean to me. I don't want to agree. But someone said I'm being mean to you.
I don't think so. Like legitimately tell me a reason why the security state would be a bad thing. He was like, that's like, if you know these guys, that's literally, Tim's like, no, no, this is your opportunity, Luke.
This is how the world is actually.
And this is why yesterday didn't work out too well with, uh, you know, Leonardo, because when I said who was being blackmailed, she just said the Epstein files exist. And I was like, right, but like, which ones? And she didn't know.
And the issue was not that she took offense to it. Because if I was needleing her, I mean, to be honest, if I was just doing this a credit method of, tell me more, tell me more. And you can't answer it.
And that's the point of a credit method.
“I literally just was asking her, like, who was, who was being blackmailed by Israel?”
If, if, if, tell me, I mean, I don't know. And she couldn't. And she got mad about it. It's not intended to insult. Like when I'm asking Luke the same things,
it's articulate your worldview on this so that we can understand it better. I get annoyed by a lot of internet debates. Like I've been watching. I don't know if you guys saw the Kylo versus Andrew Wilson. No one heard about it.
I've been watching a bit of that. And I'm just like, honestly, guys, I feel like neither of those people are actually trying to understand each other. And articulate an idea. It feels more like they're just trying to clip farm.
Like it just, it just gotcha. And Kylo's approach was I'm going to be the academic moderate liberal. And Andrew Wilson is going to be the exasperated conservative. And it felt very performative. I'm not suggesting they did it in a purpose.
But it didn't come off as a conversation with the intent to understand the other person's worldview. So, you know, as what it is. Whatever. Not that I'm perfect either.
I'm not trying to say my better. Let's grab a couple more of these super chats. The hated beard show. I'm sorry. The hat and beard show.
Nobody hates beard. Came to find out the resource wars will all will be all about fueling AI. 277 here we come. Can I get a channel shout out? Let's go fellow patriots. The hat and the beard show.
Yeah, fallout got it wrong. It wasn't over oil. It's going to be AI bombing each other. Maybe they'll incorporate that in the new Vegas stuff. David Brickon says the problem with the uniparty
is that they think Americans are stupid. And the majority of us insist on proving them right. You are a correct sir.
The problem is that it is a minority of individuals who have
company who have strong enough reading comprehension. Let's just say cognitive faculties. So what happens is if you're a politician and you want favor for something. If you want public support. You only got a target.
The back half. I need 51%. So everybody who's at 101 IQ and back. I don't need to panic to smart people. They waste my time.
So you pan to the dumb people. And it's like the Democratic Party ethos. You win. Let's go. Texas says the same guy who is against voter ideas upset about a database.
Yet wants a gun ownership database. Go figure a lefty logic. Who's that? I have no idea. What was it they looking for?
I don't know who's in favor of a gun database. Not sure. I follow that. We're going to wrap up my friends and head over the uncensored portion of the show. Rumble dot com slash Tim cast iron.
But I'm going to stress this once again. You know, there's a big story happening in Texas. Well, throw this one out there in the end for you guys. The lodge poker club is probably the premier poker brand poker location in the world in my opinion.
I know some people will say, oh, that's silly. It's not true. But I've traveled around the country. I've played in a lot of card rooms. I've played a lot of tournaments.
I met a lot of people. And I get asked a lot if I've ever played at the lodge in Austin because it's so well known. It's the biggest card club in Austin.
“And I think in terms of independent brands, it is the premier one.”
World poker tour works with them. They invited me to a bunch of events. I was going to be on one of their streams this weekend. And then the Texas Alcohol Bureau Commission, or whatever it's called, the TABC, rated them and shut them down.
And we don't exactly know why. But they've been doing something in Texas for a while where it is. I want to stress this. It is explicitly legal to play poker in Texas. And throw the poker aside and ignore the subculture element of it.
And I'll explain it like this. People often say, running this particular business in Texas is a gray area or loophole. When you ask them what that means, they say, well, it's because not illegal, but stop you there.
Is there a law saying you cannot do this thing?
No, there isn't. Okay. Is it a widely accepted normal thing? Yes, it is. Is it literally named after the state?
Yes, it is. Okay. Then why are they trying to find reasons to ban it?
The, the assumption is that there, there are very powerful casinos that board of the state that make a lot of money.
And if the state were to legalize anything related to gaming, it's going to cost them profits. And so they are lobbying the government to go in and shut down legitimate legal businesses. There is no law saying this. So let's put it simply as this.
You own a pizza restaurant and you sell pizza every day. And because the state doesn't want you in this location, they come in and they make up fake reasons to find you and shut you down. Despite the fact is explicitly legal. So I will say, I don't know any of the full details on what exactly is going on with the large or why they shut it down.
But it does seem like the state has an issue. And this is coming through the AG as well. So I've got questions. Why if they don't want the business to exist, who is operating legally with lawyers, who is doing everything by the book.
“If you want to shut them down, you don't do it in this disgusting, unconstitutional way.”
If you've got an issue with a business that's operating, you do it through the legislative branch. And you do it normally. I will not accept living in a state or in a country where they say the process is the punishment. And to get our way instead of passing laws, we will just investigate you indefinitely and shut you down.
That's BS. So shut to the lodge. They're good dudes.
They've always been very nice.
And they are very based and it's a great place. And this is this is ridiculous BS. And I'll add to this. I am particularly pissed off because one of the reasons to come out here is because such a great place to go and hang out. There's a lot of great people there.
And now they've taken. I come on this trip. I come to Austin. And they take that away through illegitimate. Unconstitutional and disgusting means by by force of government.
