Starting point is 00:00:00 Tucker Carlson said Ray Dalio is one of the world's smartest investors, but more important, he's likely the wisest. Make yourself read this book. That book is how countries go broke, the big cycle. In it, Dalio explains the mechanics behind big debt cycles, and what they mean for countries with big and increasing debts like the U.S. and what you should do to protect yourself. You can find it wherever books are sold,
Starting point is 00:00:24 or read a five-minute summary of the book at economic principles.org. All right. Yes. All right. Wow. All right. Stop it. Stop it.
Starting point is 00:00:59 Wow, those shock collars work. Happy Monday, everyone. So former President Biden says he was the one who made all the pardons with the auto pen. He also questioned why everyone should be so upset that he uses a machine to sign documents when he also uses a machine to keep him alive. Over the weekend, Californians raged at Vice President J.D. Vance and his family as they visited Disneyland. Kamala said, I'm going to get to the bottom of this while holding a bottle of Jack Daniels. Superman opened this weekend to large box office receipts.
Starting point is 00:01:44 I made the mistake of seeing it with Kilmead. Throughout the whole movie, he kept asking me which one's Yoda. President Trump and First Lady Melania arrived at MetLife Stadium to huge applause for the club world cup final. He said it's the only time he will support men playing women's sports. President Trump says he's considering taking away
Starting point is 00:02:12 Rosie O'Donnell's U.S. citizenship. He claims it's the best way to prevent the return of mad cow disease. Meanwhile, while pub owners love that Rosie's now in Ireland because they're making a killing on the drink till she's attractive promotion. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:02:40 Got her ass. A group of chimpanzees in Zambia have started a fashion trend of walking around with blades of grass and sticks protruding from their butts. Yeah, but when I do it at the office, it's weird. It's judgmental. According to a new study, keeping active slashes the risk of death from any cause by up to 40%.
Starting point is 00:03:04 Does chewing count, ask one man? A female goat stranded on a Hawaii cliff for nearly a week was rescued by climbers and taken to a veterinarian. I think we have a picture of the goat here. And finally, the world's oldest known elephant has passed away at 100. nine years old. So congratulations to the new title holder. I know. Too easy.
Starting point is 00:03:42 We'll be back with more Gutfeld. Some people think nature is like this, but actually it's like this. Mother Nature is not all sunshine and rainbows. Nature can be hotter than a sauna and colder than an Arctic skinny dip. That's why Columbia engineers everything we make for anything nature can throw at you. Columbia engineered for whatever. All right. So the New York Times just ran a piece about healing political divides. It was written by a former Obama speechwriter who decides to forgive his pro-Trump relative.
Starting point is 00:04:26 But really, it's sort of like the Washington generals deciding to forgive the Harlem Globetrotters. The article begins with the author claiming he had a civic duty to be rude to his brother-in-law who wouldn't get vaxed. Because obviously, the only reasonable response is public shunning. Because if COVID was great at one thing, it gave assholes an excuse to be themselves. The writer describes Matt, his brother-in-law,
Starting point is 00:04:56 as a Joe Rogan listening, weightlifting, metal fanning maniac, which means I like him already. Meanwhile, the Ivy League author, he proudly jogs to musical theater icon Stephen Sondheim. Yeah, running while listening to show tunes. Got to be hard to do without the butt plug falling out. But right there, you already know this article isn't about reconciliation. it's sanctimonia's
Starting point is 00:05:28 b***. The writer admits oh, he wrongly shunned Matt, but not because it was a dick move, but that his shunned brother-in-law was quickly welcomed by crazies on the right. So it's funny how being a liberal means imagining you're the main
Starting point is 00:05:44 character and everybody else's story. You know, without me in your life, you would go astray. Of course, the author finally lets us know that Matt is a decent, kind guy. Something the reader figured out after the first paragraph. But for lefties,
Starting point is 00:05:59 recognizing conservatives or human beings is as shocking as discovering Joe Biden hasn't wiped his own ass in 10 years. But even worse,
Starting point is 00:06:10 the writer assumes that right-wingers are just waiting around for a progressive to wander back into their lives. No thanks, pal, we're good. The only time we want to hear from you
Starting point is 00:06:19 is when our Starbucks order is ready. Especially, Especially after being called a science-denying, Q-Anon-loving, backwards insurrectionist. We'd flip you off, but our knuckles are too raw from dragging them on the floor. But we can't help but notice the timing of this piece. I mean, do you really think this guy
Starting point is 00:06:45 would come crawling back to Matt if Trump wasn't kicking ass? The U.S. had a budget surplus of $27 billion last month, the first June surplus in years. Prices are downed. stocks are roaring, wages are up, and the big beautiful bill is law. The border is sealed, violent illegals are getting the boot. He's trashed Iran's nuclear capabilities and rooted out wasteful spending.
Starting point is 00:07:08 Hell, he even convinced Rosie to get the hell out. Now, I could go on, but I left the baby with a brand new set of lawn darts. But among Republicans, Trump is the most popular president in his. history because he's winning. And the left would prefer you supporting a loser. Hell, they've done that plenty of times. But Trump is kicking their asses mentally and physically. In fact, his foot is making such regular contact. They're all suffering from athletes' butt. But maybe the New York Times is starting to suspect they don't speak for America anymore and never did. Maybe they're realizing that your average Trump-loven electrician could be smarter, more resilient, and better at
Starting point is 00:07:54 community than the guy with the showtune playlist? The truth is, they need us more than we need them. When a street gang surrounds you, no one's ever yelled, quick, belt out some tunes from West Side Story. But Democrats, you can't unburn the bridge that you proudly torched in 2020. Those of us on the right, what you call the political lepers, are just fine over here by ourselves. So keep waving a limp olive branch. But until you admit you were wrong and apologize, you can stick that branch where the sun don't shine. And given the number of assholes on your side,
