Well, well, well, we have good news to start the show today. It is Fat Pile Friday, hashtag FPF. And remember way back three weeks ago when Chrissy Teagan said she was officially leaving Twitter for ever, forever? Remember? Remember because she just couldn't do it anymore? Well, that was three weeks. weeks ago. How old were you three weeks ago? You can't even remember. She just announced that, you know, it turns out it feels terrible to be off of Twitter. And I just, look, I just want to be

part of Twitter again, okay? I just, it feels terrible to no longer enjoy belly chuckles randomly throughout the day. I lost friends. You know, I choose to take the bad with the good. So good, good. So, I mean, I'm not one of her 1.5 million followers, but many of them welcomed her back and missed her commentary.

And, man, when I saw that she came back to Twitter, I almost followed her. That's how excited I was. And then I thought, well, no, that's okay. There'll be enough people retweeting her gobbly gook that I'll be able to enjoy her great tweets and her commentary, even though I don't follow her. But welcome back, Chrissy, welcome back.

I know three weeks feels like forever. Doesn't it? Yes, it does. But no more. No more because Chrissy Teigen is back. This time, well, she's not pissed. She's excited. Share her commentary with us.

Right? Right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right. Welcome. Welcome to chewing the fat. You know, it's better. Almost three weeks, maybe four, since we first started hearing the news that J-Lo and A-Rod were not together anymore. The engagement was off. But they said, no, we're working on our relationship.

Really? And then they were conveniently, you know, caught smooching by the cameras. Well, gosh darn it. You know what? They are. are breaking up. What? I know. They confirmed, yeah, we're breaking up. We've realized we are better as friends and look forward to remaining so. We're going to continue to work together and support each other on our shared businesses and projects. We wish the best for each other and

each other's children's. Do you? Now, I know that they, you know, asked for privacy. for the sake of their children. What? Are you kidding me? Two of the most visible people in the world ask for privacy. Oh, okay. You know, on behalf of your children. Of course.

Yeah. You know, never mind that I take social media posts with my daughter singing and dancing all the time. But I want privacy for them now. Oh, okay. Sure, J-Lo. You want that privacy? until you need some more promotion, we got it, baby, we got it.

I love what started this too. At the start of the year, remember Southern Charm star Madison LaCroix. They were said to be having, she was said to be having an affair with A-Rod, and they said, oh, I'm sorry, oh, not an affair. Did I say an affair? No, I meant an inappropriate relationship. and LeCroix admitted to FaceTiming with Rodriguez, but denied anything beyond the calls.

He's never physically cheated on his fiancé with me. I don't want anything bad for his family or for mine. We are definitely innocent in this. Oh, okay. No problem. We believe you. All right, let's get back to, you know, kind of real life anyway. Yesterday, Derek Chauvin, in his, the trial that's taking place, invoked his Fifth Amendment right and chose not to take the stand.

Duh. But that actually ended the testimony for his murder trial. So, I mean, it was a busy week. This week, the former medical examiner said exhaust fumes from the police. car and Floyd's heart condition and drug use played a role in his death. Well, yeah, but I don't think that's still, of course, anyway, I'll stop for just a second. It goes on and it talks about he said that Chauvin kneeling on the neck for about nine minutes didn't injure Floyd.

All right, really. But last week, we had the expert witness for the prosecution who testified that any healthy person would have died when subjected to what Mr. Floyd was subjected to. I think a reasonable human being believes that, that any healthy person, and that might not be true, but I think we believe it, right? And we would like to believe that, you know, it was, of course, it's impossible to say how much the exhaust fumes and the heart condition and the drug used played a role. We know that it did, but most importantly, the kneeling on his neck played the huge role, right?

So, I mean, let's, let's be honest. But we also said, you know, that, you know, it was just, the whole thing is just really, really bad. But Officer Chauvin, former Officer Chabin, I mean, we all wanted to just shake him and say, get off of them. What are you doing? I know we've been down this. road. It just drives me insane to think that

we have to go through the motions. I don't know why we're going through the motions. Let's just put them in town square and be done with it. Anyway, both sides are scheduled to deliver closing arguments on Monday, and then the jurors get it. They go to deliberation, which they can take as long as they want.

And this is where they will be kept in seclusion. they are not they won't leave until the verdict is found and the verdict must be unanimous so if it's not unanimous the judge could call a mistrial we could go through the whole stupid thing again i mean i think a mistrial would be just as bad now in minneapolis as a innocent or not guilty verdict right I think we're still going to do some serious damage. When he's guilty, when they find him guilty, and they will. You know, then we only burn down a couple of stores in celebration.

But, I mean, I know the city is ramping up security amid concerns. You know, they ought to have concerns. But the decision might not take that long, right? The jury gets it on Monday after closing arguments. And then, you know, they go sit down and have a little lunch. maybe they talk it out a little bit and then they order dinner and then they come back

and the judge says oh no it's getting kind of late why don't you come back tomorrow morning go to bed we'll send you the hotel we'll send you the hotel no problem you get a night at the hotel and then you'll get a nice big breakfast tomorrow morning so you'll have lunch dinner and breakfast maybe that's just me thinking and

then we'll come back and we'll do it we'll have primetime verdict reading on TV Tuesday morning How about that? What do you think? You think that's going to happen? Probably pretty close. I bet you we're done by Wednesday.

Latest. There's no way this jury deliberates for more than 48 hours. No way. No way. That's a, you can take that to the bank on chewing the fat. Fat Pile Friday. FPF. That's an FPF guarantee.

No more than 48 hours. hours of deliberation from this jury in Minneapolis. Okay? Ding. So earlier this week, we had the death of Bernie Madoff, who died in prison. And I was just kind of pondering, well, Ruth, I remember reading that she was doing okay or what happened to her, the wife of Bernie. And so I did a little digging around a little bit to see, just to see how Ruth was doing.

you know and what happened so she never she didn't face any charges or anything when Bernie was sentenced and he you know admitted to it all and he said he did it all he took the heat for everything although the brother took a little bit of heat from him so his assets were valued Bernie's assets in 2008 were valued at 823 million dollars so a good chunk of their money was in real estate with homes in Manhattan months Palm Beach, France. Yeah, I mean, hello. Montucket, I guess it is, yes.

Duh. And which was like $22 million. I mean, it's not that big a place. They had a yacht, four boats, valued at $9.3 million. And Ruth had a personal jewelry collection that was worth $2.6 million. So I was wondering, you know, after all of this, what kind of trailer parks she was. living in.

And so they, I guess she's living in Connecticut now. And she was allowed to keep two and a half million dollars of their assets. When it all, after the dust settled, everything was done, she got two and a half million. Now she's living in a waterfront mansion in Connecticut, a $3.8 million waterfront mansion in Connecticut, with a former daughter-in-law. family. And she drives a Toyota Prius, and she's known to keep to herself. So the globe-trotting, yacht-owning, diamond-wearing, Miss Madoff, Ruth has been, you know, living the quiet life in Connecticut.

She's 79 now. I mean, that's pretty good. Right. I mean, she may, look, when you don't have the yacht to go to, you don't have the house in France. And you're not, you know, you're not living up on the 80th of the floor in Manhattan, looking down on all the, those people. You, uh, you're doing all right.

You're living in Connecticut. You had a couple million in the bank. You had a couple million assets. You're living in a, you know, multi-million dollar house. And you're driving a nice little Prius, which I find funny. And she drives a Toyota Prius. I mean, oh, you know, she has a nice little car, gets her around town, right? If she has to go, if she has to drive somewhere, she's got her nice.

little car she can take around. And, you know, she's doing okay. So she's doing okay. It's not the, you know, billion dollar lifestyle that she had, but she's doing okay. And I would be very surprised. And I know this was, you know, hypothesized when Bernie, you know, finally got, when they found out Bernie made off with all of that money. Get it? Anyway, that she didn't know.

Right? I mean, you pretty much have to go out of your way not to know. It's almost like a gangster's wife, right? A mobster's wife. You know, but you don't. Because that's something you don't want to know. Right. I know I like going to France and I like being on the yacht.

So I don't want to really know. He does investments. It's just investments. Okay. All right. No problem, Ruth. Take care. Love you too. So earlier this week we talked about Elon Musk and his new algorithm, you know, at NeuroLink,

the Neurolink algorithm that they had put the Neurolink into a monkey's brain. And it was they put two of them into this macaque's brain. And they had him play pong. And they showed, I did this on chewing the fat during Pat Gray unleashed. And we showed the video. and it's fascinating. So they gave the monkey a joystick. You could write your own jokes with that.

And the screen where he was playing Pong. And the banana smoothie. So every time he did something, right, he got the smoothie. You know, we all want to do well to get a banana smoothie. I get it. But what they did was is then the algorithm

studies how he was playing and, you know, sees how his brain reacts to play. with the joystick. Then they disconnect the joystick. Now he's playing Pong with his mind. And the algorithm is reading what his mind wants the Pong screen to do, and it does it. Now, for the first part of it, the monkey is still using the joystick, even though it's disconnected.

And then he realizes, hey, I don't even need to be using this. And so they just take the joystick away, and he's playing Mind Pong with his mind. I mean, it's really, really fascinating. And I know that Neerolink is working on, you know, doing this for humans that can help them, you know, who have brain issues. And, you know, you get that implanted. So, you know, it will, you know, you'll be able to do things that you wouldn't normally do. I know. I know.

It's really cool, and the potential is amazing. Right? I mean, I don't know. They try to downplay it with, I don't know if this is going to be peer reviewed by scientists. Oh, okay, fine. I don't know if it's going to be peer reviewed either. We've watched it happen live in front of us as, you know,

we see the neurons and the Neurilink and the app work. I don't know if it needs to be. you know, peer reviewed anyway. Really, really cool. And look, if it helps paralyzed people or, you know, eventually helps people that have other brain issues and it can get you out of that,

great. If it will be, you know, if it will help paraplegics, if it will help any brain issues to have the humans be better, Good. Let's do it. And then I see where scientists have created embryos made of both human and monkey cells in search for transplant organs. Now, it's really funny. They're not creating, you know, this special breed of monkey.

And I know originally we all think, well, we've seen that movie. And all that movie works out. But what they're doing is one of the major problems in medicine is. organ transplantation, right? So they've decided with the gene expression laboratory of the Salk Institute for Biological Sciences, duh, and the demand is much higher than the supply. So for the first time, U.S. and Chinese scientists have created embryos that are part human and part monkey in an effort to find new ways to produce organs for transplants.

Okay, good. I'm all for it. But all I could think of during the whole time as I'm reading this story and I'm watching the neurolink macaque play his mind pong. All I'm thinking of

is from the movie Rampage and the rock is fighting these animals and one of them is a wolf with the giant ape and the wolf is in the middle of a fight with the rock in this movie Rampage. and you hear, of course the wolf flies. Of course the wolf flies.

Now, I'm not saying that it's going to happen because of this. I am saying, of course, the wolf flies. All right, let's go to the break room. I need something cold to me. Desperately. He thought I was going to tell you something about how good that drink was, didn't you? Yeah, well. No, but I will say I might need another sip.

So Google Earth just released this Google Earth time lapse, and it's really cool. But how it's being promoted is this, if you weren't stressed out enough about climate change. Well, what about those of us that aren't really stressed out about climate change? So it's got 24 million satellite photos compiled into an interactive 4D experience. It's according to this story because they are stressed out about climate change. It's one of the clearest visuals yet of how our planet has changed over the past four decades. Wait, what? The Earth changes?

No. Stop it! Yeah, some animals are born, other animals die. Ha, right? Humans adapt to things that change on the earth. It's just amazing. So users can toggle from the devastation, from the Australian wildfires,

to the rapid growth of San Francisco on the same. screen they didn't create this just to hurt you the company wanted to build a tool for governments researchers journalists and teachers to witness the rapid environmental change in the past half century well good because that way as humans we'll be able to evolve and do things to help it we don't have to just stop doing everything and go back to caveman days. It's just amazing. Now, Google has partnered with NASA

and the U.S. Geological Survey's LandS. program to collect these images from 1984 to 2020 of every location on Earth. That alone kind of scares me. But, I mean, we've allowed it to happen, and, you know, I enjoy looking at the pictures so good. I will say that the last time I looked at Google Earth, at my house that I used to live in a long time ago.

It hadn't been updated yet, so it still had my car in the driveway. A car that we didn't own anymore, by the way. So it's not quite up to date, but it's getting there. It's getting there with, you know, live, live feed. And the project took two million processing hours across thousands of machines, but stuck to its green commitment and used 100% renewable energy. Oh, good!

That is so special. So that makes me feel better because I'm really stressed out about climate change. So have fun this weekend looking at Google Earth time lapse. It would be fun. I actually am looking forward to it because it'd be kind of cool. to go around the world and look at the time lights and see the changes from 84 to 2020. I mean, we see it every day. Right?

I mean, there was a time. Just one point, the first thing that pops into my mind is when I was living in Florida. And I used to drive, I used to live in just outside of St. Petersburg, a greater, you know, Tampa Bay area in a community called Seminole, just a separate, you know, entity. suburb of St. Petersburg, Tampa. But I used to drive up to Spring Hill. It was about an hour and a half drive north of Seminole, Florida. And you'd reach a certain point between my place in Seminole, Florida,

or St. Petersburg, Florida, and Spring Hill, about halfway up, then you got into nothing. You still got into old farmland and old cattle land and old waterland and just, you know, old Florida land. And throughout those, years from about 80 yeah I don't remember I don't remember the years but it took it within the difference of about 10 years all of that was built up and now I mean we see it here in Texas and there if there's a sliver of land that a building can be built

on it's being built on all right so it's gonna be interesting to see the time lapse from 84 to 2020 to see you know all these locations on the earth but it won't concern me. The whole little climate change thing, yeah, that's not going to, that's not going to really bother me. But maybe that's just me. So, well, I've got you here.

Okay, good. Good, good, good. For those of you listening, whether you're a subscriber or not, Today, live 416, 2021. Okay? Tomorrow, the 17th is the funeral. Can't even say the word. I'm so sad.

The funeral of Prince Philip. So, I know. It's bad they've had wall-to-wall coverage for a week now of this guy's death. I mean, I'm sorry he died, and he was 99. He lived a tremendous life. But wall-to-wall coverage. And I see where the BBC said that it received 109,741 complaints over its wall-to-wall coverage of Prince Phillips' death. I mean, even the viewers of the BBC are like, okay, sorry the man died, but you're killing me, too.

So I guess that now makes it the most complained about programming decision in the company's 98-year history. So they haven't even been around as long as he was around. And they've got, you know, I mean, they were close. They were neck and neck. I mean, they were born right after he was born. And the most complained about programmed decision. That's awesome. I mean, even the people predominantly in the United Kingdom.

But, you know, BBC is worldwide, right? And so, you know, they're just complaining like, hey, what do you think? Maybe we take a little bit of a break. But we're going to, you know, have wall-to-wall coverage throughout the funeral. You know that, right? I mean, it's already going to happen. So it's going to be a ceremonial royal funeral rather than a state funeral. That's what he wanted.

And it's going to be scaled back, though, because of COVID-19 restrictions. Right. Come on now. I thought that the UK just eased lockdowns and non-essential stores and pubs could open up, but we still have all this restrictions going on with COVID-19. So there's going to be no public access, no public process, and the funeral will take place entirely within the grounds of Windsor Castle. The services will begin with the National Minute of Silence,

At the royal, at the end of the service, Philip will be interred in the chapel's royal vault. Only 30 mourners are permitted because of the COVID-19 rolls. Wow. I mean, that's right. That's because what's his face? Boris said he wasn't going to go so he could leave his chair to someone else of the family to go.

So you get the queen, all senior royals, including the Duke's grandchildren. and their wives and members of Prince Phillips family, including a Bernard, the hereditary Prince of Batten, and Prince Philip of Hohenlo, Langaberg. Members of the royal family will be wearing a morning coat with medals or daydress. The congregation will adhere to national coronavirus guidelines and wear masks for the 50-minute service. Oh my gosh.

Oh, my gosh. You have a small choir of four. will sing pieces of music chosen by the prince before his death. And there will be no congressional singing or congregational singing. Wow. The queen is going to be seated alone during the service. He's not even going to let anybody sit with her. Wow.

And Prince Harry has been over there almost all week. And according to reports, they stuffed him over at Frogmore College at the Frogmore Cottage. And it could have been the Frogmore College too for all they care. and just that's where he's been. The queen's been doing a couple of things, but according to the stories, Harry's just been sitting there twiddling his thumbs. Thanks for coming.

We appreciate it, but we got things to do. Remember, we're still part of the royal family. You wanted to drop us all and said bad things about us on worldwide television. So take care. Wow, that's really, that's really interesting. So they may have actually ruined the chances of Harry coming back with his tail between his legs. I mean, the queen and his dad, if they just say, hey, Harry, go back to Megan with your two kids and, you know, take care.

Sorry she couldn't come with Archie and the new baby. But, you know, thanks for coming to Grandpa's funeral. Bye. Did you, let's talk about social media for just a little bit, shall we? I saw where Mike Lindell is going to start his social media platform. His big launch is coming on Monday. Today is Friday, those of you that are listening live, Friday the 16th of 2021. And he's going to start his free social media platform, Frank.

That's the social media platform called Frank. And he posted a little two-minute video about Frank, which I'm going to play for you. And I just want you to realize what's happening with the other social media platforms. You know, Twitter censors criticism of the BLM founder and her, you know, $4 million home that she purchased. You know, I know Facebook also decided that, you know, you can't really share that story about that. wait, why not? Well, it goes against community standards.

Yeah, you know, that's just the way it is here on Facebook. The Facebook also has their oversight board that's going to start removing posts flagged by users. Oh, so if someone just, you know, happens to complain, we take them at their word, no problem. Well, maybe the oversight board will oversee. but I wonder who's going to complain against whom. Huh. Twitter banned Project Veritas. I can't even speak today.

Twitter bans Project Veritas founder James O'Keefe. Yeah, don't worry about it against the CNN disclosures. Yeah, that's fine. And they're also Twitter, also taking a closer look at its own algorithms in a bid to reduce bias. Yeah, okay. Yeah, I'm sure that's what they're going to do. Right. According to them, they claim that their image preview cropping tool was automatically favoring white faces.

I mean, okay. So I'm confused. So now does it have to automatically favor black faces? because I don't know, still, I know things are changing, but white people are still the predominant race in the U.S. But, you know, I get it. Sorry, it's just the way it goes. I know, I know.

It's no longer. You can, we can do everything cannot be said against anyone unless they're white. If you're a white guy, forget it. You are as open season on you. Open freaking season. But if you're any other race, religion, creed, animal, whatever you are, you can't say bad things about anymore. Just it's incredible times. But I wanted to talk a little bit about, I wanted you to hear the video from Mike Lindell.

as he explains what Frank the voice of free speech is going to be, according to him, and it's a little sales pitch ad on his Frankspeech.com website. It's interesting how he explains what free speech is and what's going to be allowed on Frank, the voice of free speech, because you'd think that he would allow, you know, everything. but no, that's not the case. Hello, everyone. Welcome to frankspeech.com. Hello.

This is going to be a platform like no other. It's kind of like a YouTube Twitter combination. We've worked on it four years. I've spent over the last four weeks, I've spent millions of dollars making it the most secure. We're going to be able to handle the capacity. Everything's going to be the most secure. We're not going to be attacked, but I have my own servers and everything.

We're not going to be worried about Amazon taking it down or YouTube or Google or Apple. Yeah. We're going to get our voice of pre-speech out there. Right now, if you sign up right now, or just put your, get your name on here, get signed up for her. VIP viewing. You're going to have exclusive viewing Thursday night at midnight. And so put your phone over in now. I got to put my stuff in there.

be, you'll be alerted, a text message alert to where you can get on at midnight, and then on Monday morning at 9 a.m., we're going to have the biggest launch. It's going to be a two-day like a prankathon. I'm going to be on there live all day long, and for the two days. And what we're going to do, we're going to be, you're going to have all your influences on there. You're going to have people that you've got to see it on there. They're going to be calling in. We're going to, this platform, swipe to YouTube, Twitter, common age. You've never seen anything. like it. You're going to love it. You're going to have your own, your own, like, YouTube

channel, only that's your Twitter channel, so to speak. But I'm just so excited. I just want everybody, it's going to be all of the cancels of our First Amendment rights we're seeing it going on right now. Well, guess what? It's coming back. You're not going to have to worry about what

you're saying and what's going and you're worried about being able to speak out freely. I do want to say one thing. Oh, no. that when you get in there on Thursday, when you get in there, look at our, unless you look at our mission statement, because we went back and defined, and we felt from our founding fathers in the Supreme Court and stuff,

what defines free speech. So you're not going to have to worry about people that they're on there. You're going to be a good reporting system, but you don't get to use the force where we're to, you know, the C word, the N word, the F word, or God's name in vain. You can't have free speech is not pornography. Free speech isn't, I'm going to kill you.

It's very well defined in our mission statement. It's going to be an amazing platform. And I am so excited because what's going on right now, they're trying to take everything from us in our country, and we need to get our First Amendment. We need to exercise that and start speaking freely again. Thank you. God bless.

Oh, no, thank you, Mike. We appreciate it. Okay, so there you have it. There's Mike Lindell from frankspeech. F-R-R-A-N-K speech.com. I will say that, you know, it sounds interesting. It also sounds like, man, I hate to say this. But, you know me.

All right, here on chewing the fat. I'm just going to say it, and we're just going to move on, okay? If I can't say the C word or the N-word or the F-word or God's name in vain, I mean, is that free speech? I'm okay with it. You know, I'm okay with it. I'm just, and pornography, it kind of is free speech. But, you know, you can say what you want.

You know, you could absolutely say what you want except for this. It's just, I mean, I get it. I get it. Don't look at me like that. I get it. But I will say it is kind of strange, though, because I wrote down real fast he was talking the C word, N word, F word, God's name in vain, pornography. And, you know, I went back as he was talking, finishing up, and I spelled the rest of the word,

you know, C word out, and the rest of the N word out, and the rest of the F word out. And I felt really, it feels weird even writing the N word, let alone, you know, looking at it and saying it out loud in my head. It's just really weird. but you can say whatever you want on frankspeech.com, you know, except for what I have on the list that you can't say. So it's the big launch. According to frank.com,

they send a limited amount of valid confirmation codes to a single phone number. So if you tried more than this amount, what is the limited amount? It doesn't, is limited equal a certain amount? I mean, I'd like to know the exact number, but, you know, please try again later. And people living outside of the U.S.

were not be able to sign up using this form on frankspeech.com. But, but when it launches on Monday, you'll be able to sign up. All right. So there you have it. You social media, people that are mad at Twitter and Facebook and Parlor. And Amazon is going after Parlor again for something. Didn't we have? and wasn't the guy

the head guy from Parlor on the Glenn Beck radio program and he said that he had helped them out and he had turned some people in I don't know what's happening with Parlor that whole deal is just weird but they should not have been attacked I think we all know that they were on fire

and really starting to make a dent and when January 6th you know the siege came. That really gave the powers that be the opportunity to shut them down. And they did. But now we have Frank

Speech.com and it's free speech and you can say and do whatever you want. It's like a video, Twitter, YouTube kind of social media thing that's going to be incredible and you can say and do anything you want except for, you know,

some stuff. Now, I went around in circles because I was nervous about, and I really wasn't nervous. I just, you know, I feel bad about saying what I'm going to say. If you are familiar with doing a certain drug, let's say off the top of my head, oh, cocaine. There are times, and I've only been told this, there are times when you are what they consider high. on this drug. All right.

Your body is, the drug is making your body in a different state. All right. And you do a lot of talking. And you talk about all kinds of stuff. You talk about the world. You talk about stuff that you want to do.

You talk about this and talk about that. But it's really just high on that drug talk. Doesn't really mean anything when you wake up the next day. That is what that video by my, Mike Lindell sounded like to me. I'm loving it and I'm happy and I hope that it works out and I want it to work out. And I want it to be huge for Mike. And I've talked to Mike on this show before.

I believe that he believes what he talks about. The guy is, you know, it's my pillow, man, my pillow.com. I get it. And the guy believes in it. And he's in his life, he turned his life around and he's still, you know, you're not using God's name in vain. And he doesn't want you to use a couple of bad swear words and bad meaning. words in today's world, I got it.

Good. Fine. You can, you know, you can live your life on a social media platform without saying the F word. I, you know, you'll be okay. You'll be okay. But it's just, it's really, really strange. It was just a strange. Good luck to frankspeech.com. That's all I'm saying.

Good luck. Okay, well, we can do a little, uh, little, COVID and the little politics, you know, maybe just some headlines. Not the full stories, just some headlines so you know what's happening as we head into the weekend from chewing the fat. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the CDC, has identified nearly 6,000 cases of coronavirus developing in Americans who have been fully vaccinated. Oh, that's...

Not really good. So it's not that much. I mean, it represents a 0.008% of the fully vaccinated population, but there is happening, right? We also have a study from Tel Aviv University finds that the South African variant of the virus that causes COVID-19 affects people vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine more than it impacts unvaccinated. unvaccinated people. So if you had the Pfizer-Biointech vaccine, you're more possible to get the South African variant than you were if you didn't get the vaccine. But it's, you know, 5.4% compared to 0.7% with the unvaccinated.

You know, okay. I mean, the numbers are small, but it is happening. the Pfizer CEO says that a third COVID vaccine dose likely needed within 12 months. Oh, okay. I don't know that that sounds great or I don't know that I really like that idea, but at least that will handle some of the variants, right? I'm sure that's what they're finding out because in 12 months we'll have a longer, better view of how people react, how it is reacting to the variant.

It's just, you know, that's what's happening, right? Because we push this through so fast, which we all wanted, which was great thing. Because the underlying thing, the underlying thought was that we're going to get this vaccine and then we can get back to normal. Nope. Not going to happen. they are going to fight tooth and a nail, tooth and mask, to not get us back to what we consider normal. Okay, just a couple of political headlines yesterday.

The United States announced new sanctions against Russia for hacking into several U.S. government agencies and meddling in the 2020 election. they say Russia hit 18,000 government and private computer users with a software virus, allowing spies to reportedly sift through and steal files from 250 federal agencies and companies, including Justice Department, State Department, Treasury, Energy, Commerce Departments. All the while, the Kremlin kept busy trying to undermine the 2020 election in favor of former president. Trump. Really? And boy, that didn't work out, did it? I mean, that's a crappy hacking job by Russia. So anyway, 10 Russian diplomats are getting kicked out. Sanctions are going up. And Russia has said, no, that's not a good idea. And we will retaliate. So that's not good at all.

And according to a Rasmussen poll, 62%. Don't think voter ID laws discreet. Huh. So most of the high percentage, 62%, are fine with the voting laws the way they are. And when you look at the other inside, inside the poll, 51% of the voters believe it's likely that cheating affected the outcome of the 2020 presidential electing. Get out of here. 35% say it's very likely cheating affected the election. Duh. And I mean, duh, you're dumb. How dare you believe in something like that?

74%. We covered some of this on the voters. It's just amazing that we found this. It was there. The polls are saying that it's, they believe that it's important to make it easier to vote. 61% of Democrats say that and 15% of Republicans say that and 34% of

unaffiliated voters say that it's important to make it easier to vote among voters who say that's very likely that cheating effect of the 2020 election outcome 92% say it's more important to prevent cheating than to make it easier to vote

again I use the term Duh. And just so you know how Kamala Harris is doing as she, you know, was tapped from the king, President Biden, to take the border crisis under her wing. The president of Guatemala says President Biden's confusing border messaging was hijacked by smugglers. And it allowed the cartels to ramp up their human smuggling operations. And the Guatemalan government said, yeah, you know, you talked about that, security agreement that we made with the U.S.?

Yeah, there's no document that's been signed. Yeah, I don't know what the heck you're talking about, but I don't know. And don't forget, we're going to get out of Afghanistan by September 11th. Sure, President Trump had us out of there, I believe, by the end of next month already. So President Biden is jumping right on that bandwagon and deciding that, I can't do what President Trump said, but we're going to do it anyway by, you know, September 11th, and we'll make it into a big deal and we'll know that it was me who decided that, you know, we're getting out of Afghanistan.

Okay, no problem. President Biden, you got it. It is a good thing that we're getting out of Afghanistan, though. I mean, Afghanistan is a nation killer, and we need to be out of there. A-S-A-P. So I'll leave you with a couple of, I left you a little knowledge yesterday on yesterday's show. And I might as well leave you a little knowledge today as well. Okay.

Which country? Which country has the most time zones? All right. And if your answer was France, you would be correct. And you're thinking, wait, France? Yes. They have 12 time zones. I didn't realize this either.

France has overseas territories spread across the globe, okay, mainly from its colonial empire days, including Martinique in the Caribbean Sea and French Polynesia in the South Pacific. Russia has the most contiguous time zones with 10 across a single landmass. So if you said Russia, Oh, you're still wrong because French is, I mean, France has the most,

and that's just the way it is, okay? They've got the most time zone. So if you said anything other than France, you were wrong. Okay. Speaking of French, the French, did you see where Paris, they're busting people for having secret restaurants? Oh, yeah, sure. The world is loving the lockdowns.

They're loving them. We had the secret bars and parties going on here in the U.S. and New York and probably still are in many places that are still under the, you know, god-awful rule of the lockdowns. But apparently the Paris elite are in violation. They're going to restaurants that are secretly staffed, and they're not wearing masks. And they're just going to these restaurants for their clandestine meetings.

How dare they? How dare they? And I guess, according to this story, some of the people who are participating in these dining extravaganzas are part of the government. Ha! So, yeah, how about that? That's what I thought you'd say.

Exactly. Really.
