Yesterday, Vinny and I had an hour and a half conversation with Suge Knight while he was in jail.
Starting point is 00:01:04 And he called in. We had we had a conversation couple weeks ago He said he wanted to speak on a podcast on any issues any matter no question off the table And we talked about a bunch of different things. He dropped a lot of names of people whom he Claims influenced Diddy to do what Diddy is doing today and you just have to listen to when it comes out It's gonna come out probably sometime this afternoon it's the longest one he's done since he's been in and we have to constantly call back every 15 minutes but we eventually got it we're cutting it up right now we were gonna do it on Twitter
Starting point is 00:01:34 spaces but you couldn't dial in anyways we shot the whole thing gonna be all over the place today but very interesting so for those of you that wanted to know what Shug knows or thinks about what's going on with Diddy and all these other things, we'll have that being released later on today. Obviously, there's more things going on with Iran and Israel. We'll speak on that today. Iran feels emboldened, makes dangerous gamble on open confrontation, according to Wall Street Journal. Iran threatens to attack Israel with weapons it has not used before, as it gets military
Starting point is 00:02:06 support from Russia. And White House is about to announce new sanctions on Iran following their Israel strike. Simultaneously, Google staffers from New York City, California and Seattle offices to protest a $1.2 billion aid that's going to Israel. Jerome Powell says, Fed will wait to cut rates. And that is not good for a lot of people that were hoping to get the rates being cut. Oil, US crude oil falls below 85 as traders discount Iran-Israel war risk. Direct Iran-Israel war could spike oil.
Starting point is 00:02:42 Ready? $30 to $40, which means if you're paying in California right now $5.50 a gallon, you'll be soon at $8 a gallon if it goes up 50%. That's the number, give or take. The U.S. freight recession keeps getting deeper. We'll speak about that. Elon Musk's position with Brazil, maybe we'll get into that. He's been asking for $56 billion payout.
Starting point is 00:03:04 Tesla's asking shareholders to vote again on it. George Soros dropped $60 million into the Democrats' progressive war chest. Left-wing dark money group funds bail, legal support for anti-Israel agitators, blocking traffic. We'll speak about that. Trudeau, ready for this one, folks, insists China meddling in his party's favor had little impact on Canadian elections, but they did meddle in. You won that one, didn't you?
Starting point is 00:03:31 He won that one, yeah. Oh, wow. And then Dubai, I don't know if you guys have been seeing the videos with Dubai, what's been happening with Dubai. A bunch of people are speculating on what's going on there. UAE government unit denies cloud seeding took place before Dubai's floods, which is a mess. I've been to Dubai. I don't know if you've been to Dubai.
Starting point is 00:03:48 You don't see a lot of rain in Dubai. They have to make rain in Dubai, that a lot of people claim, but we'll show you some of those videos. The average American doesn't know what a 401k is. Maybe you may want to answer. If you know what a 401k is, comment below. And don't go to Google and Investopedia. Just see if you know what a 401K is, what the code stands for.
Starting point is 00:04:06 Quarterly ratings, Fox News, MSNBC, and failing CNN fails more. CNN axis, ready? Charles Barkley and Gayle King's weekly show, King Charles, after six months. Eugen Carroll, you guys know who she is? The lady that was on Anderson Cooper that got $.3 million dollars when she won the lawsuit. Guess what just happened to her? She's officially the top 100 most influential people of 2024 according to Time magazine. Really? She influenced the jury? She influenced the judge? Good.
Starting point is 00:04:37 She's very, very influential. Bill Haney claims he is sending his son Devin to kill Ryan Garcia. Trevor Bauer accused her indicted for allegedly trying to extort $3.6 million. You guys got to see this. Tom's got a bunch of stuff to say about that. Parents of Michigan should go into jail. We're going to finally comment on it today. Maybe some things about Joe Biden.
Starting point is 00:05:00 Tesla cutting 10%. UFC Renato's video we still haven't shown. We will show. And aside from UFC, Ronaldo's video we still haven't shown, we will show. And aside from that, there's a lady, this is kind of weird guys, when we show you this, a lady in Brazil, apparently grabs a dead man, maybe her uncle, in a wheelchair, goes to the bank, kind of like the weekend at Bernie's, convincing them that he's trying to take out 17,000 Brazilian money, which is $2,500 US dollars. Vinny, just show me this clip and we, which is $2,500 US dollars.
Starting point is 00:05:25 Vinny, just show me this clip and we'll show this to you. So stay tuned. It's disturbing, entertaining at the same time, but very disturbing. Ben Shapiro and Andrew Tate are back at it. Again, Ben Shapiro goes nuclear. And take down of Andrew Tate selling lies to men, jerking off to his webcam business.
Starting point is 00:05:45 What story is this by the way? Mediate? Okay. We'll go into that story as well. All right. So aside from that, one thing I do want to kind of share with you guys, next Thursday, a week from today is our next live. Next PPD Podcast live at 59.90 Live.

Okay, so let's get right into it Vinnie
Starting point is 00:06:54 Yes, sir. We got a lot of stuff that's going on I want to start off with Jerome Powell Rob if you can pull up Jerome Powell's video and Vinnie I'm specifically coming to you with this one. So Jerome Powell announces that the Federal Reserve will not be making rate-cut inflation reaches 2 percent. Rob, play this clip. The entire market reacted to this. Inflation, of course, declined quite significantly over the second half of last year, over the whole year, but particularly in the second half. But 12-month core PCE inflation, which is one
Starting point is 00:07:25 of the most important things we look at, is estimated to have been little changed in March over February at 2.8 percent. And the three- and six-month measures of inflation are actually above that level. So we've said at the FOMC that we'll need greater confidence that inflation is moving sustainably toward 2 percent
Starting point is 00:07:42 before it would be appropriate to ease policy. You know, we took that cautious approach and sought that- You can pause it right there. Tom, what does that mean to the average person? Here's what it means to the average person. Let me translate it for you. We are worried that inflation at three and a half right now is heating up a bit, getting back toward four.
Starting point is 00:08:03 You can already see it at the gas pump because oil is 85. So the average person is like, why heard oil is 85, what that mean? It means the gas pump's going on, and thank goodness we're going into summer, not winter, because heating oil would be way up for people that are in the Northeast. Also, it means that if you bought a house
Starting point is 00:08:20 maybe last year, squeezed into something, it's 7%, you notice the mortgage rates are still 7%. They're probably only heading back to 6.38 or 6.5 by the end of this year because they're talking about only cutting twice. So what does that mean? It means the economy is not improving as much as the headlines say, that inflation is stubborn, it's still here, people are still seeing it up. And if you're thinking of buying a house and you think of those interest rates are going to come crashing down this year, they're not. That's the loose translation, PBD.
Starting point is 00:08:51 Okay, so while we're looking at this, Tom, now at the last year, December, when we're going into New Year, December 2023, going to 2024, a lot of people were speculating that rates are going to be lowered probably four to six times this year. That was a number of a lot of people. And when I say a lot, I mean the heavyweights. I'm talking the guys that are the guys you go and read about, the Morgans, the Goldman's, the guys that are the experts, right? And a leak from a guy on the St. Louis Fed.
Starting point is 00:09:15 That's right. So, okay, everybody said, oh my God, it's going to go down. It's going to be great. It's going to be this. It's going to be that. And then all of a sudden, no, no, another month, ah, no, another month, ah, no, inflation's not dropping, ah, inflation went up half a point, ah.
Starting point is 00:09:31 So now all of this is continuing the way it is to where we're at with today. Is there any likelihood, Tom, that maybe there will be zero rate cuts in 2024? Like if you were to give you a percentage that there will be zero rate cuts in 2024. Like if you were to give you a percentage that there will be zero rate cuts at all in 2024, where are you at with that percentage wise? Right now I'm only 50-50 at two rate cuts and I'm falling. Got it. But where are you at for zero rate cut? I'm probably 25% and coming up. At zero rate cuts? Yep, because the inflation has
Starting point is 00:10:05 been stubborn. We saw unemployment is higher. I mean, the government's saying that unemployment rate was staying the same, but we don't see how that's possible with all the layoffs that have been announced. And many states are announcing that jobless claims and, you know, unemployment checks that you can get for six weeks, those are up. So how is it that national stats are more moderate but the states are seeing it worse? We think Washington's playing with the stats and when you look at all that, that means it's even a potential mild recession the second half of this year. Mild recession, they won't announce that obviously but...
Starting point is 00:10:41 Oh hell no, they will do everything possible not to say the R word for fourth quarter. Let me go to the second part of this question Which is the oil right US crude oil falls? Below $85 as traders discount Iran Israel war at risk right that we have so this is a CNBC story Let me read this to you So us crude oil dropped for the third consecutive trading session on Wednesday, dipping below $85 a barrel as the market dismissed the risk of a wider war between Iran and Israel that could disrupt supplies. The West Texas Intermediate Contract for May delivery declined 46% or $0.46 or 55% to $84.89
Starting point is 00:11:19 a barrel. June Brent futures were down $0.51 or 0.57% at $89.51 a barrel, June Brent futures were down 51 cents or.57% at 89.51 a barrel, and US oil and global benchmark are down just under 1% this week. US prices go about their business of unwinding some of the war premium that has been priced in due to the continuing tensions surrounding the Gaza conflict and the subsequent Iranian missile onslaught on Israel, John Evans, an analyst at Oilbroker PVM wrote on a note on Wednesday. And by the way, this is another story that kind of goes with it.
Starting point is 00:11:55 Direct Iran-Israel war could spike oil by $30 to $40. You know who says? Bank of America says. And they said this yesterday. So Bank of America predicts that a direct war between Iran and Israel could cause oil prices to go up 30 to 40 through 2025 and Brent potentially reaching $130 and US crude oil soaring to $123 if Iranian crude suppliers are disrupted by up to 1.5 million barrels per day. Tom, you have inflation, that's one thing. You have interest rates, that's one thing. You have unemployment, that's one thing. You have oil gas prices, that's one thing.
Starting point is 00:12:34 What do you think is gonna happen here with oil and gas prices? Okay, all those first things you mentioned is like the flu, the flu, flu the flu if oil moves like that It's cancer on the economy why because oil affects everything oil affects fuel You know just transporting goods back and forth and by the way the US consumer so much in debt right now We have a freight recession going on for the amount of freight being transported around is down So you have that so if oil up, air travel goes up immediately. Energy costs, just basic energy costs for your car goes up. Plastics go up. Plastics starts in a barrel of oil. You have then, of course, I've already mentioned, freight goes up. Oil affects everything. It's like the bad domino to fall in an economy.
Starting point is 00:13:20 And by the way, they're saying, oh it's under 85. The peak a year ago was 93.95. So we're all the way back up within $8 of last year's peak where we were panicking and Joe Biden opened the strategic petroleum reserve to take excess oil out there to kind of help the price. I mean, we're within shouting distance of this. And it's and that's why when you ask me about, you know, where am I, I'm 25% and rising that there'll be no rate cuts this year that the economy is not nearly as good as it seems Tom What do you always say numbers? People to where it's hot numbers scream the price of oil right now is about 80 bucks 85 bucks. What is it right now? Yeah, you're you're around there. Okay
Starting point is 00:14:00 Historically, what should the price of oil be 60 60, 70 bucks in that range? What's your take? So, United States oil extraction need about a $60 a barrel to make a buck because it takes like 50, 55 bucks. 65 is what I've heard. Yeah, that's correct. 60, 65. The oil sands in North Dakota and Alberta, they need about $55. It's more expensive to get the oil out of the shale as opposed to just plugging a hole in the ground in the Gulf of Mexico or in West Texas. And WTI stands for West Texas Intermediate Crude. So United States is a
Starting point is 00:14:35 very happy place if oil just sits right there at 60. So you think, well, you know, 85 to 60 is not too much. That's 25% more. I mean, that's, I think 25%, that's bad inflation. And if it hits on a hundred bucks or a hundred and twenty, that's exactly double. 65 is a happy place. What's the, what's the reality that oil is stable? Like we're talking numbers right now. You say numbers scream, you know, during 2020, I think oil went to like zero dollars a barrel base. It was almost negative because they just couldn't, no one was moving. So you see what, you know, the even just with interest rates bringing it back to drone power
Starting point is 00:15:09 from a macro perspective, the Fed fund rate is what five, five and a quarter right now ish. So and then the prime rate, which is what the consumer has to pay is always about three points above that. So you're talking in the eight range, bingoingo five and a quarter. So prime is about eight Nonetheless mortgages are at eight Should we expect any stability from any of this anytime soon? Or is it just like get used to the chaos? I Think we need the Middle East to calm the F down
Starting point is 00:15:41 Because that what is that happen that will settle no then that's the problem that will settle. No, then that's the problem. That will settle the oil markets. Tom, let me ask you a question. How much is Biden stopping the fracking, stopping the drilling here, affecting that? Like I know he's depleted our reserve is almost finito. Oh, you know, when I was drilling here. Right. And I get so confused. I watch the news whenever I hear him talking about artificial intelligence. I always think they're talking about Biden. But when I got, when Biden sits there and basically looks in the camera and his policy is don't do I'm like, what, what, you know,
Starting point is 00:16:14 wait a minute, where's the statesman in that? Where's the world leadership in that? Where's somebody stepping to the forward and saying, for this reason, this reason, this reason, you guys got to come to the table. I'm not going to let you keep fighting and I'm going to come in here and that's what we're going to do. We're not doing that today. Don't. You know, Biden, I don't care who's in the White House. If that is your, your foreign policy is based on looking into the camera.
Starting point is 00:16:38 We're screwed. You know, can you pull up that number Rokuk? I just sent you an Adam. I know you got a question. I'm going to show you this as well. The chart I just sent you. Yes, so check this out. Zoom in a little bit. This is the petroleum and other liquids. This is specifically oil, right? U.S. crude oil, first purchase price. This is from early 70s to today. Go down a little
Starting point is 00:16:55 bit, Rob, to the bottom. Okay, so check this out. If you try to find the highest number, obviously what 65 was 10 years ago is 85 today, give or take you the same number is not going to stay the same number For us to break even these companies need to make profit, right? If you go lower keep going lower. So right there, you'll see what a high You'll see high of 30 right there 2000 to the right and you'll see 62 you'll see 73 Boom 128 is good 2008 right there. So You'll see 73, boom, 128. 2008 is crazy. Look at 2008 right there.
Starting point is 00:17:24 So if you go 2008, you got 87 in January, 89, 98, 106 in April, 118 in May, 127, 128, give or take July is what it is. That's a high, right? 128. Who's president at 2008? July, by the way. Bush to Obama. Okay, Bush to Obama.
Starting point is 00:17:43 So 128. Then it goes down to 60, 50, and then goes Trump. Trump comes in 16, you got 40, 30, 25, 60, 56, 31, 15. Damn, $15, $18. So super low. Then comes Biden 2021. The 15 was COVID low demand. Nobody was using oil because they were all locked down. You couldn't give it away.
Starting point is 00:18:08 So then you got 15, 18, 38. Then you got 49, 56, 60, 59, 62. Then it goes to 80, 89, 107, 103, 108, 113, 110. Okay. 113, 100. So remember when gas prices, so do this Rob do me a favor and go to go to July 2022 gas prices just Google it separately July 2022 gas prices July this should this should give the average person a sense of what could happen July 2022 gas prices in America see if a chart will show up telling you how much gas prices were
Starting point is 00:18:48 Is it showing you or triple a is not showing you if you go to July gas prices What website do you go to to get that time? Do you know like is there a? July 20 no not that one. That's not gonna show it to you. So July 2022 I want to really just go history. Did July 2022 gas prices history and see if it'll find like a chart Rob. Just go to bizdoc.com. It's all on there July 2022 here we go. I found it. Okay, so July 2022 You're looking at four ninety four four ninety nine peak. That's the national average not California 499 peak national average five bucks Yeah, so what is the national average right now Rob? What is the national average right now? So if we go to the national average right now three eighty last week, what is it or three six?
Starting point is 00:19:37 No, no go. What does it say? Yes regular for okay? That's the one three sixty four So let's just say four ninety nine which is what a buck buck 36 more. What's a buck 36 on 364? Can you do buck 36 on 364? So buck 36 divided by 364 Okay, 37% So 37% is what it is. There you go Okay, 37%. So 37% is what it is.
Starting point is 00:20:04 There you go. So if this thing goes to, if this thing all of a sudden today goes from where it's at to $125 a barrel, if it goes to $125 a barrel, gas prices national average will be $550. Can you go to California right now to see how much gas prices are in California right now? And it's 38% on the tax in5.50. Can you go to California right now to see how much gas prices are in California right now? Rob Baskin It's 38% on the tax in California. Dr. Jaramillo Right. So if I go to California, gas prices today, $5.45, $2.37.
Starting point is 00:20:33 So bump that up 37%, Rob. I know you're quick with Matt. So if you can do $5.45, increase it. Rob Baskin It's going to be like $7. Dr. Jaramillo $5.45,.37. So you got $ so gas prices could go to 750 in California for regular not premium it'd be eight bucks for premium if this thing gets 125 bucks. That's what you need to know so for those who
Starting point is 00:20:59 Some people you know go on dates on ubers for you Can you imagine like what now you have to cut down your two days to one day to week? Yeah, listen, babe I can't send you catastrophic for you know, go on dates on Ubers. Can you imagine like what now you have to cut down your two days to one day a week? Yeah, listen, babe, I can't send it to the... Catastrophic for, you know, the Ubers, the lifts, all these, you know, different kind of things that takes place. But that's what this means, basic math, what it could affect. And by the way, this is not just going to affect this Uber, food, everything's going to be going up.
Starting point is 00:21:21 And this is the one thing that people will directly feel This number they'll feel because and let me translate even further that means to fill your tank with gas The average fill up I've read is twelve and a half gallons at that price. You're looking at a hundred bucks Right a hundred bucks to fill your tank seven fifty I'm listen on about you guys because I think I'm teacher tell me about a school teacher doing that every week. That's $400 a month of gas. I've been getting involved. I was going to say I concur because I'm not into the numbers. My head hurts.
Starting point is 00:21:51 I'm not into this whole energy thing. But listen, just from going off of what you guys said, whoever's the current president, I'm voting for that guy. This Joe Biden guy, oh my God. You're an old man. Hearing those numbers, inflation, this, that's the type of... That's what America likes. You would think he's a Republican trying to help to help the oil guys out in Texas. That's what you would say. Yeah, exactly Right. No pick man. Yeah
Starting point is 00:22:11 I'm voting for Democrats for the rest of my life. The reality is when gas prices are too high consumers can't pay for it They freak out they stop traveling stop spending But when they're too low oil companies all around the world basically start layoff, start cutting thousands of workers, and they cut back on operations. So there needs to be some stability if they can figure it out. But with war in that region of the world, the Middle East, the oil, no good. That definitely doesn't.
Starting point is 00:22:40 Go ahead, Tom. It reminds me, there was a time where Saturday that live wasn't just a bunch of liberal tools And you go back to when Jimmy Carter was president Dan Ackroyd did a skit where Dan Ackroyd was Jimmy Carter And he said I have a new policy inflation is our friend Haven't you ever wanted to wear a $1,000 suit well with my administration next year's you can go to pennies and get While we're on economy, let's wrap this economy story up Vinny So here we go. Next one is the US freight recession keeps getting deeper Are you what JP hunt a leading freight, experiences a significant decline in stock value following
Starting point is 00:23:27 disappointing first-quarter earnings, with profits plummeting by $70.3 million compared to the previous year, and revenue falling short of forecast by 9%, dropping by $2.94 billion. Weak trucking volume and sluggish demands contribute to JP Hunt's struggle reflecting broader challenges in the freight market, which has been grappling with a prolonged slowdown since the pandemic. Bank of America senior transportation analyst Ken Hoechsler noted, demand remains weak. Pricing is remaining at really historic low levels.
Starting point is 00:24:02 Tom, what's going on here? I'll give you three data points. Our government is telling us the economy is fine. Consumers have $1.1 trillion in credit card debt. The economy is fine. Buy now, pay later. They're delinquent on buy now, pay later. The consumer is fine.
Starting point is 00:24:18 So guess what? The consumer is not buying. Consumer purchases are dropping, and therefore there's a lack of demand for freight services to truck all that stuff around. And so now you've got freight at historic lows. So what's happening to the income of those truck drivers? It's dropping. This is bad. So the freight recession is basically telling us that there's not demand to be transporting stuff around the United States Let's translate that why isn't there demand because the consumer is more tapped out
Starting point is 00:24:52 But the economy is fine and look at the jobs report Oh wait, those are a bunch of part-time jobs people are getting because for every job that was on the job report We lost one point two full-time jobs. So the freight recession is you saying, I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine, and your mom puts a thermometer in your mouth and says you have a fever of 103, you shouldn't go to school today. That's what's going on. Let me kind of give it a little personal finance context.
Starting point is 00:25:17 I'm befuddled by the way. I'm just completely befuddled. This is egregious. Adam, go ahead. No, when there's deep talks of logistic recession, you're befuddling. I completely understand why the dynamics of the GDP would incur with your constituency. My constituents are furious right now. It makes total sense.
Starting point is 00:25:32 But there's three and a half million truckers in America. I mean, the vast majority of people that do these jobs literally is just driving stuff around in America A lot of what america is is just get from point a to point b drop it off turn around. Let's go On the highways, let's go hustle bustle. Shout out to these guys and by the way 90 percent of the truckers. They're men So when you're talking about logistics and freight and layoffs 90 percent of truckers are men Yes, so you're saying those 10 percent are wearing got well listen. Well listen, everybody knows that the favorite hangout spot is rest stops for trucks, all the good stuff is going on. Oh man brother. Amen. Pretty cool. Logistics is driving people around moving things around. Even the Uber drivers out there,
Starting point is 00:26:18 logistics and moving stuff around is what makes America tick tick tick. When you send the Uber drivers to pick up the girls, you make the Uber driver get out and open the door for the girl I only gentlemen Transportation as an industry, yeah We had one of our clients that were consulting for guys doing 40 million a year. He's down 70% Okay, dude not getting loads and I said, you know, why are you not getting loads then another guy jumps in
Starting point is 00:26:47 Who's part of this mastermind? He says yeah We're experienced of whether it's on the load side where you receive loads to go whether it's your own trucks right now trucks Guys are selling their trucks because their trucks are not moving The only way trucks make you money is when they're moving. If they're not moving, they're sitting there like, I don't even know why I'm making these payments. So sometimes when you're trying to get into the transportation business, you may go buy 50 trucks at a time.
Starting point is 00:27:11 Say 50 out of $150,000, do the math, seven and a half million dollars and boom, second annuity, go, go, go, ship this, go, go. And you're making that cash for it, right, with the trucks that you have. And trucks just sitting there is basically like an empty hotel room or an empty seat on a plane It ain't making no money now
Starting point is 00:27:26 And by the way, just maybe a little bit of good news if it's the guy who I think you're talking about He's lost a lot of weight The last handful of years if it's what I'm thinking about so he's looking good. I don't know who you're talking about Okay, maybe it's a different guy We got we got a few of them that we're working with. Okay. All right, so sounds good We'll see what happened there next one. I want to get into is Iran-Israel. So emboldened, Iran makes dangerous gamble on open confrontation. This is a Wall Street Journal story.
Starting point is 00:27:55 So Major General Hossein Salahmi's declaration, we have decided to create a new equation, encapsulates Iran's strategic shift towards direct confrontation with Israel, making a departure from its previous tactic. The attack reflects Iran's response to mounting pressure from its axis of resistance allies, as highlighted by Ali Akbar Ahmedian, who noted the decision, who was made due to growing frustration by Yemen's Houthis and others in the resistance that Iran was not doing anything. Save face, do something.
Starting point is 00:28:29 Despite the warning issued to Oman and Switzerland, the scale of the attack indicates a deliberate effort by Iran to inflict substantial damage on Israel, raising questions about Hezbollah's potential role in future escalations, as emphasized by Chuck Freilich The shadow war will continue and meanwhile Iran threatens to attack Israel with weapons It has not used before as it gets military support from Russia Iran is reportedly getting a terrifying arsenal from Russia including anti anti aircraft Launchers and painful response anti-aircraft launchers freight fighter jets, and it's threatening to fire weapons it has never used before in a severe, extensive and painful response to the slightest action
Starting point is 00:29:14 by Israel. Abul Fazal Amoui, a spokesperson of the Iranian Parliament National Security Committee, told the local newspaper Monday that the Islamic Republic will confront any Israeli aggression and respond to it. We are ready to use weapons that we have not used before. We have plans for all scenarios and we call on the Zionists to act rationally, he says. And Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi warned Israel that if it takes even the slightest action, it will face a severe extensive and painful response Adam Yeah, very well
Starting point is 00:29:49 Here's what we know this war just got real This is the first time that he's wrong has ever struck Israeli soil We know that Iran has been the king of proxy wars We know the Triple H crew the Houthis the Hezbollah and Hamas. But now they're, whether it's serving red meat to their base, whether that they're actually feeling emboldened and they want to do something, they're putting their money where their mouth is. Now, here's what I will say. As far as an American perspective, it's pretty clear. One country is an ally that loves America, and one country literally yells death to America
Starting point is 00:30:30 in the streets. I think you know who the answer is to that. What Israel should do, in my humble opinion, I'm not in the briefing rooms with Netanyahu, with Benny Gantz, or anything like that, is implement the Mossad- type tactics, not the IDF tactics. You need to surgically take out who you need to take out. I don't think anyone benefits from just striking Iran. And if you are going to strike Iran, nuclear capabilities or anything that involves anything nuclear would be the play.
Starting point is 00:31:01 But here's my question to you, Pat, and to the panel, and to our guys. Diplomatic, we talk about diplomacy, we're talking about good relations. There's the axis of resistance or the axis of evil. There's three countries that are top of the list. You have Iran or the Islamic Republic of Iran. You have Russia, and you have China. What are the chances of a good to at least fair relationship with the United States? Meaning the chances of Russia having a decent relationship, the chances of Iran having a decent relationship or working relationship, and the chances of China? How would you put that? Under Biden? put under under by in general under just with America overall because we know most of these countries they have leaders for 10 20 50 years how long is the supreme leader of Iran been are you saying to have a peaceful relationship with America I'm saying what are the chances
Starting point is 00:31:57 yes Iran to have Iran Russia and China in that order Iran Russia and China to have a peaceful relationship with America So here's so so there's a few things in time. I want to get your thoughts on this as well Here's a few things that you have to keep in mind No matter what business you're in you have to understand the ambition of your opponent and never Downplayed the ambition of your opponent. Okay, so guess what? Russia is ambitious. And what's their ambition? Leave us alone. We want to be a superpower. You know, we want to be somebody that you cannot be messing around with.
Starting point is 00:32:31 And we want the respect. Russia's got how many nuclear warheads? They got plenty of them, right? We've seen the number 8,800 or 10,000. You can pull it up to see where Russia's at. Can you pull up how many warheads Russia has? It's enough to end humanity. What is the number that they have?
Starting point is 00:32:48 5580. Yeah. As the largest confirmed stockpile of nuclear warheads in the world. 5580. And you ask them how many, Rob. Yeah, you can put the ranking and kind of see this. So China, what's China's ambition? China's ambition is clear.
Starting point is 00:33:01 They want to be the biggest superpower in the world. Great. What's Iran's ambition? Is it They want to be the biggest superpower in the world. Great. What's Iran's ambition? Is it ambition or is Iran driven by hatred? What is Iran driven by? Is Iran driven by selling their faith to the world? Like is Russia driven by selling their religion to the world?
Starting point is 00:33:19 No. Russia's driven by selling what? Oil. Their power. Yep. And imposing their power and their Oil. Their power. Yep. And imposing their power and their history to the world. True. Is China driven by selling Buddhism, you know, what's what?
Starting point is 00:33:31 Confucianism. Confucianism. They're actually a non-religion state. Right. So what's China's trying to do? They're just trying to tell you, we're better at strategy than you, and we're going to be better generals than you to take over, right? So the ambition there is economically to say we're going to be a superpower, right?
Starting point is 00:33:49 Iran, unfortunately, and by the way, let me tell you something. I get some annex from some people, like, I can't believe you said this, and you don't know the interpretation of death to America. How dare you say something like that? Coming from a guy who's never lived in a Middle Eastern country telling me what I should be interpreting with a pert thing that I saw as a witness like not a two year old kid or six year old kid a ten year old kid that I'm leaving and I saw this stuff right so look do you know the first time anybody ever used the phrase death upon death upon anybody do you know any do you know what's the first country ever that said death upon
Starting point is 00:34:22 anyone what is it North America North Korea you know who number the first country ever that said death upon anyone? North America. North Korea. You know who number two was? Iran. So North Korea says it. You can pull up, first time anyone used death upon America. Just type in first time anyone ever used death upon America. I'm assuming that's in the 1950s during the Korean War.
Starting point is 00:34:41 Well, pull it up. Death upon anybody. Okay, look it up. If you go through the history, okay, not death penalty. It says the first time we ever used death upon first time phrase, death upon America used. You'll see it goes to the revolution, which is the death to America. There you go.
Starting point is 00:35:03 Okay, so death to America was an antiamerican political slogan used in many countries including Iran, North Korea, Afghanistan. All of those guys hate us by the way, just so everybody knows. And look who's at the end by the way, Russia, right? But all of those guys can't stand us. The slogan was first used in North Korea during the Korean War. What year is that? 50s. Do you know when was the next time they used it? 79. Do you know who used it? Iran. Why is Iran saying that? By the way, here's a crazy stat for you guys. Here's a crazy stat for you. You ready for this crazy stat?
Starting point is 00:35:30 When did Israel become a country? 1948. Do you know what was the number one Muslim majority country in the world to announce that Israel was a sovereign state? Turkey was number one. Do you know what was a number two? Muslim majority leading country in the world to announce that Israel is a sovereign state. I would assume Iran. Iran, do you know what year it was? 1953. You know who was running Iran at the time? A guy named the Shah. So if you're talking about can Iran
Starting point is 00:36:02 ever have a good relationship with anybody else, not if their core is based on hate. By the way, I was on a Pierce Morgan yesterday, and we had a great conversation. I was on Pierce two days ago. He puts it up yesterday. We'll play a clip here and we can react to it. Some of you guys didn't like what I said. Great, great.
Starting point is 00:36:20 And some of you guys like what I said. But listen, that's the part of it. Here's what you have to realize with what my MO is, guys. And I hate to disappoint you. Please understand, I don't wake up in the morning trying to make any more new friends. I got great friends in my life. I have people in my life I love. And anybody that wants to, you know, a slow, brewing relationship, great.
Starting point is 00:36:38 I don't need more confirmation in my life to get more people to like me or not like me or all that stuff. I'm 45 years old. I know who I am. I don't need any of that stuff. I got a very good relationship with that man upstairs that I'm trying to keep as good as I can possible. But this is kind of where I come from. You don't like it, don't tune in. Go elsewhere. I am skeptical about everybody in power. Yesterday we're talking to Shug Knight, and guess what? You know who he's calling out? The people who taught Diddy the bad habits. And me and Vinny are sitting here and Shug Knight says, who do you think taught that he did these bad habits? You think one day Diddy woke up and started wanting to be with 13 year old boys?
Starting point is 00:37:20 And I'm sitting there, I'm like, where the hell is this guy going with this? And then he starts dropping names. By the way, a hundred percent of the names he mentions, guess where they're from? And guess what industry they're from? And guess what their background is, except for a couple of them, Clive and I'll let you listen to the name that he gives and how he breaks it down. He says, Usher has a chance because Did he taught usher and I hope usher stops Right so some of these bad habits are being taught down to somebody What's on the flip side of it guys Iran hates America?
Starting point is 00:37:58 They don't love America anybody that starts a phrase death upon America I have a problem with that anybody that sister phrase, death upon America, I have a problem with that. Anybody that sits there and says, death upon Israel, I have a problem with that. Anybody that says, death upon anybody, I have a problem with that. I'm an American, I'm not from Israel, I lived in Iran, I saw what happened there, but the last time Iran and US had a healthy relationship, it was under the great Shah
Starting point is 00:38:29 of Iran. The Shah of Iran. Not Khomeini, not Khomeini, not Raisi, not any of these guys. It was under the Shah. It was peaceful. And by the way, he still had challenges with the Zionists. He called out the media in the U.S. He called them out regularly, but he still had a very good relationship with Israel,
Starting point is 00:38:49 and they were the number two Muslim state in the world to announce Israel as a sovereign state. So in today's climate, without Iran being ran, no, it's not going to happen anytime soon. The moment Iran falls and it topples and there's a new regime that actually accepting Western democracy, certain values that we have, then yes, till then, this is not going away. By the way, fully agree with you and thank you for that and I'll be quick. In that order, I would say China, we want zero interest in a conflict with China.
Starting point is 00:39:20 Competitors, yes, we use that term. I would say the chances of a decent relationship with China, whether it's a Trump, whether it's Biden is 20%, 25%. Like there's decency there. I would love to get to a point where we're not enemies with Russia, maybe 10%, 20% chance of that happening. Zero percent chance we're going to have a good working relationship with the theocratic thug-like regime of the Islamic nation of Iran That's what it doesn't help and we've talked about this beating a dead horse when your leader is weak as shit No, Adam that number is getting smaller and smaller because who respects somebody that doesn't know where he is
Starting point is 00:39:58 He's wearing sunglasses indoors. He's falling apart Russia. Nothing was going on All right, we you know Trump on. Trump shook Putin's hand and almost ripped his shoulder off a little bit. But guess what the problem was with China. The moment Trump was like, hey, I'm going to hold them accountable, they're going to pay their fair share, all of a sudden a disease came out of freaking Wuhan. Weird. What Pat said is correct. China wants to be the controlling economic power of the world. To do that, you need customers. And they're willing to manipulate the game to be number one with espionage, you know, funding proxies the other way, distracting us. What do they
Starting point is 00:40:37 want to do? We're an economic competitor. How do they distract us? You know, support proxies, support the war over here, over there. Russia wants economic legitimacy and doesn't want to live in the shadow of post-World War II Western expansion and economic might. They want that. How are they going to get there? It was the Cold War and they're using espionage or doing things like that. That's exactly what they do. They don't want to annihilate us.
Starting point is 00:41:01 They want to control us and to pass us and it is an ugly, terrible sausage making process they're going through. But Iran and you look, I'll give you an example. Somalia. Somalia had no friends, no nothing, just open hatred. Their own government fell. There's nothing. There's nothing there. There's not even a country. There's not even a functioning government. The UN sees Somalia as this this thing that just sits there with a lack of any function. And by the way, that's the end game if all you do is hate and all you want is there's no outcome you want on the economic playing field of a somewhat rational world. I see China as a rational actor but using very dark techniques to achieve their goals. Oh, I'd one more the way guess what though
Starting point is 00:41:47 You know what? I understand that I can play that game look if I go to a bar and If you're fighting in the UFC, what rules are you fighting under? UFC if you're boxing Devin Haney, your name is Ryan García. What rules are you fighting on under the boxing? name is Ryan Garcia, what rules are you fighting under? The boxing game? The internazional? You have C octagon rules. If you go to the comite or the pride or anything, what rules are you fighting under? The specific fight that you're at? If you're fighting at a bar late night back at the bar in an alley at three o'clock in the morning, what rules are you fighting? Zero. Zero. Except whatever the laws that you're going to go to jail with. Now take that to the world level of you are your own country
Starting point is 00:42:27 That you're managing and creating your own laws. Your name is China What do you think like do you wake up in the morning like if I were the president? I'm sitting with G I'm sitting there looking at G saying yeah in my mind I know for a fact you will do anything to destroy my country Yeah, and I still have to figure out a way to work with you. Now how do I work with that? There's many ways to work with that. But you're not sitting there being like, oh my God, you know, what are we going to do? No.
Starting point is 00:42:53 Iran, flat out, is saying, do something. By the way, here's what we're not even talking about. This whole thing that's going on, you know what Iran is saying, Tom? Iran is flat out saying, do something. FYI. You know what happens if you go to a bar? You ever seen these guys I don't know if you've seen this one guy. There was a video of this Cholo
Starting point is 00:43:08 It's like hey homie. What'd you say? Hey Vato? What did you come to anything? You know what I'm on what gang I'm from and he shows what gang is from okay in the parking You ever seen this and the guy kicks the shame the white guy goes like this You ever see somebody just do that yeah, but what's point? You know what the point is in that moment? You're like Come on Did you have to do that right? You know what the moral the story is Iran you can't back down now dope Cuz the moment you say you know if you do something
Starting point is 00:43:41 I'm gonna kick your ass you do it another guy takes a shirt off You have to do it. Yeah, if all of a sudden they go like this you better you better Israel does that so now the question then becomes what's Israel and Netanyahu gonna do you think he's gonna let at a national level Iran embarrassed. What do you think I? Simply don't understand by the way I want to play clip for you guys from Pierce Morgan yesterday will react to it go and play this clip at the end because Pierce is Obviously a guy we have very good conversations. He had you on you crush when you run last week or two weeks ago and When he comes on to Ukraine will have our own debates and he'll always bring that up And this is a moment as well that we've got into a little bit go to play this clip giving Putin the lamb
Starting point is 00:44:23 But he's taken and saying he does that and say that you're wrong about Putin. Say that it turns out he does have imperialistic ambitions beyond what people think he has and that emboldened by America's retreat not just there but also Afghanistan and so on. He's watched how America's conducted itself on the foreign stage. Let's Say he then does attack someone like Poland, which is a NATO country. What then? Your face is a little- Piers, you are smarter than this. You've been around, you've interviewed a lot of people.
Starting point is 00:44:55 You know this world better than I do. You've talked to Trump many, many times. You have a relationship with him. It's actually a very entertaining relationship that's up and down, up and down, and then you go to Charlemagne the God and you defend him in a different way. I love your relationship with them. It's actually a very entertaining relationship that's up and down, up and down. And then you go to Charlemagne Degas and you defend them in a different way. I love your relationship with them. It's very fascinating, truly. But, Pierce, you know Putin's not going to do shit to Poland if Trump's the president, because when an alpha and an alpha get in a room and they negotiate, there's a fair level of respect and admiration for each other.
Starting point is 00:45:26 We can look at case study. The great thing about what I love the 2020 for elections for is the following. Here's why I love the case study of what we have today. I think it's going to be used for decades, if not centuries, to come. And here's what the case study is. We can now officially, per se, we had four years of Trump administration to look at, and we have almost four years of Biden to look at. We can compare economy to economy, peace to peace, wars to wars, unemployment to unemployment.
Starting point is 00:45:56 We can look at every single thing, and there is zero proof from those who are skeptical on your end, worried about the fact that Putin's going to attack Poland, that Trump would allow something like that to happen because it never happened under his regime, during the four years that was there. We feared ISIS. When's the last time you used the word ISIS? This guy went after Ghassam Soleimani, who was supposed to be the number two, number three guy in Iran, and potentially was going to run Iran, and he was a leader of all these guys behind closed doors, all these proxy wars.
Starting point is 00:46:25 You killed that guy? That's kind of like in the mob family you think about back in the days. You go and you kill Ben Siegel. You go kill, you know, the main guys that, you don't do something like that. He did. That's what Trump did. Audacity, risk at the highest level. You went after a guy like that?
Starting point is 00:46:43 I did. Everyone in the marketplace says, okay, guess what? You ever seen the movie American Gangster, you know, with Denzel Washington? You remember that scene when he's sitting at the cafeteria and he's sitting with his cousins. Their cousins are just starting to realize that Frank Lucas has become a powerful guy. He sees a guy down the street. He says he gets up, he walks up, goes to the guy, puts the hat down, he says, where's my
Starting point is 00:47:03 10%? The guy laughs at him. He takes him out. Cousins everybody sees him, he comes back, sits down, wipes his hands, has the breakfast, and they start having a conversation together. Trump did that to Ghassam Zuleimani on a world stage. On the world stage. Do you know what level of audacity that takes?
Starting point is 00:47:23 Who has that kind of audacity not a lot of people he did That could have been risky because to some of us were like if Iran retaliates you have the right to now retaliate They took out your number one general. They didn't strength is one way to lead and when America's strong Fortunately, the world is at peace when America is not strong like we are today, the world is not at peace. It's true. Thank you, David. Always great to talk to you and hear your perspective. Thank you very much indeed.
Starting point is 00:47:52 Likewise. It's the problem we got today. Everybody feels bold to go and do whatever they want to do. So if you got a guy like that in the house, do you think that would be happening today? If Trump was president, do you think this is what's happening today? Are you crazy? You brought up movies, and I think movies mimic reality so well and when I think of Iran and I think of Israel right now, I think of that scene in Indiana Jones where the guy in the black is waving the sword
Starting point is 00:48:16 around and Indiana Jones just looks at him because he's tired. Indiana Jones has been fighting and running away from bad guys. He's tired. He's sweaty. He just draws Yeah, and it was very quick. I mean, and that's what I feel like is right now There's a lot of people that they call it saber rattling for a reason It's like rattling the saber to remind people that you've got a sword But then you have you know, you have people that look at you and say are you gonna use that? You're not gonna use that you're not gonna take me one part that I thought was super interesting by the way awesome You're not gonna use that you're not gonna take me one part that I thought was super interesting by the way awesome Just even you laugh like that, you know, you made a point but you talked about who's in your ear you talk about this All the time who's in your ear?
Starting point is 00:48:52 Something very interesting and we talked about these articles, you know There's it's who's in your ear above you who's in your ear next to you and who's also in your ear below you You know, we make assumptions like who's in the Islamic Republic of Iran's ear above them. Well, maybe China. They've invested into Iran. How many billions of dollars? 400 billion over 25 years. Insane amount of money. Possibly Russia. They're selling them weapons. But who's in their ear below them motivating the mullahs of Iran to do something about it? Well, they said in this article here, it's the Houthi rebels basically saying, look, we're doing all this chaos in the sea. Where you at?
Starting point is 00:49:28 Where you at? Mullahs? What are you going to do here? The three of crats, the islamics running Iran do something about it. So whether it's the Houthis or the Triple H crew, the Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis, come on, help us out here. Whether it's the pirates at sea, whether it's the Shiite militias, they're in their ear. By the way, Iran is the biggest destabilizer of the world. They're the biggest exporter of terrorism in the world. Name me somebody more.
Starting point is 00:49:55 Now, I know people who don't like America, the first country they're going to throw on the... Some of them are going to throw on America. Really? Yeah. Okay. Do you know what Iran's misery index right what Iran's a misery index right now? It's it's 61. Yeah, okay. Do you know what it was six years ago 30?
Starting point is 00:50:11 It's gone from 30 to 61 do you know what they're higher now by the way Do you know what the corruption three today? Do you know what Iran's corruption indexes? Corruption index out of 180 countries direct 148. 148. You know what the world average score is? World is 43. Where are we at? Do you know Middle East's average is 34? North Africa's average is 34. You know what Iran's average is?
Starting point is 00:50:35 24. The level of corruption in Iran. The people of Iran are fed up, but they're afraid of what 80% of people in Iran do. Can you imagine like, imagine you are Iranian and your country is in this thing called the World Cup and your country is facing off a team, you know who they're playing against? US. And imagine you as an Iranian don't want Iran to win because you don't want the government to get the victory of beating your number one enemy, which is us and you're living in Iran Wow, did you understand what I just said right there? Yeah, like I don't know
Starting point is 00:51:08 It's kind of like Michael Jordan's son rooting for his dad to get hurt. Yeah That's the weirdest thing to see so that means you are losing your people and some people who are Unfortunately, they have a certain level of hate for America. I understand because of what you've been fed. I get it. I was a guy that lived in Iran for 10 years as a kid. I was told America is the most evil empire in the world. I was told that for many, many years. No problem.
Starting point is 00:51:36 I'm not sitting here telling you, you know, we don't have a repetition of what we've done. Of course. You can't put that up. At the same time, you name a country that's positively impacted the world for the better, no one even comes close to this country called America. Not even close. Not even close. It's not even close. Not even close.
Starting point is 00:51:53 Just to validate everything you're saying, and I want to show this thing real quick. Number one, even the Arab countries in the region know that the biggest destabilizing force in the pariah of the world is Iran. That's why when you have this strike that's happening telegraphed against Israel against the Iron Dome you have countries not only the US not only UK not only France you have UAE you have Saudi and you have Jordan saying uh-uh not on our watch stepping up to help them because they know that Israel isn't the real enemy but I'm gonna tell you something Islamic Republic I'm gonna tell you something here as well though I'm gonna tell you something here as well though. I'm going to tell you something here as well that, again, this is why in my brain guys,
Starting point is 00:52:28 I guarantee you I have the biggest contradictions and arguments always in my brain. I also think Netanyahu could have prevented this. I also think Netanyahu could have prevented this. I also think he wants this fight, unfortunately. And I think, I don't know whether it's legacy driven, I don't know if it's promises he's made to a relative that none of us are aware of that's a mother or a father or a grandfather or somebody that he feels he's loyal to. I also think he wants this because he wants this fight.
Starting point is 00:53:04 And I don't like that either because as a leader of your country your job is to make sure you keep that place safe and And I'm not sitting here saying there Well, you know they were not the ones that attacked Tomas in the first place and that I totally get it and by the way one guy my next me saying you really think they're not giving up the hostages because They're not wanting to give up the hostages or do you think they're not giving up the hostages because they're not wanting to give up the hostages? Or do you think they're not giving up the hostages because the hostages are all dead? Why do you think they're not giving up the hostages?
Starting point is 00:53:31 Because here's what we are going to realize. I'm telling you, January 21st, January 20th, inauguration, 2025, Trump gets elected. If Hamas doesn't release the prisoners, they're not alive. Oh, for sure. Por mi lo que movilá. I got you. If you don't release them, they were not alive the entire time anyways. But I'm also not one that sits here and is like, oh my God, Netanyahu, I don't trust a lot of his sequencing
Starting point is 00:53:57 and his decision-making process that he made. And the people don't like him. They're protesting on the streets every day. I'll tell you this, by the way, you're not wrong. There's a lot of people that within, listen, this is the beauty of democracy. You're going to have a lot of disagreements. I mean, how many people agree with Trump, disagree with Biden, hear that? That's the way it works. In Israel, it's, they have the Knesset, they have the parliament, that's what's going on there.
Starting point is 00:54:19 If you can scroll out on this, there's the three leaders of Israel right now. You have Benjamin Netanyahu, you have the defense minister, you have Galant, and you also have the military chief Benny Gantz, who's, this is the equivalent literally of Donald Trump sitting on the left and Joe Biden sitting on the right and someone moderate saying, let's figure this out. That's what this picture represents. Do you think those guys all agree? Who's the guy in the middle, by the way? That's, he's figure this out. That's what this picture represents. Do you think those guys all agree? Who's the guy in the middle, by the way?
Starting point is 00:54:48 He's the defense minister. Is he a powerful guy? That's Yoav Galan, defense minister. That'd be like- I know, but is he like a Mattis? Is he that level of a guy? He's a Mattis, correct. All right, got it.
Starting point is 00:54:56 That's that picture. So if you think those three guys disagree, by the way, look at the title of the article. The war leaders don't trust one another. Well that's not good. But by the way, imagine if you I would love love if we were at war to see a picture of Joe Biden or Obama, Trump sitting at the same table saying guys, let's figure this shit out. They at least are at least somewhat unified. So do I agree with you that maybe Netanyahu has different intentions than other people? Yes, that's what they have. I have too many questions.
Starting point is 00:55:26 I just have way too many questions for myself. And I just have way too many questions for myself. But for me, when I'm seeing what's going on today, you know, what is prevalent, no matter what the times are, a strong leader lowers temperatures. You got that uncle in the house when kids are acting up and he raises his voice one time Everything goes down if that guy's missing everybody's fighting you need this is this is why oh my god man Like you look at any freaking great organization Any great organization that's striving and growing behind closed doors. There's a shot-caller. That's respected
Starting point is 00:56:03 Feared loved admired a little bit of everything behind closed doors, there is a shot caller that's respected, feared, loved, admired, a little bit of everything. This is why you have to value great leadership so much. Unfortunately, the problem with the majority of people, these journalists, when it comes on to strong leaders, most journalists don't relate to what it is to be a strong leader. Journalists are more like, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did
Starting point is 00:56:28 you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you
Starting point is 00:56:36 see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see, did you see Morgan last point we talked about follow the money here. You know, we have this border bill potentially hundred billion dollars Ninety three billion dollars what they're talking about all right now, you know, and it's three countries on the border Ukraine Israel Taiwan and then the American border. I love what you said about the border love the analogy game. You're making $27,000 a year your $34,000 in debt if you just follow the money we've given as much money to Ukraine This year since since the start of the Ukraine war almost since the history of Israel since the history of Israel since 1948 We've given approximately 130 billion dollars total
Starting point is 00:57:17 So now they're talking about a three billion dollar package or a 14 billion dollar package. How much money? Legit question how much money have we and the world given to Ukraine? I'm guessing at least a hundred billion dollars. More than a hundred billion. Okay. And that scumbag keeps coming saying, give me money. I pay back. Give me money back. There's 75 billion just by the US. The European has committed approximately 93 billion. Pat, you're a math guy. What's that? Committed bro, but that's 168. That's committed. That's not that.
Starting point is 00:57:46 That's committed. So I love when Pierce tried to catch you with like, but you say intervention. How much are you going to give to Ukraine? How much are you going to give to Israel? And you're like, look, you know, that's like giving someone a million dollars and someone giving a thousand dollars. Big difference. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:58 Yeah. Well, I mean, again, and by the way, this leads to this other story. Check this out. Google staffers from New York City, California Seattle offices to protest $1.2 billion Israel contract. Google employees, part of the group of No Tech for Apartheid, staged protests across multiple offices including California, New York City and Seattle. They demanded the cancellation of Google's involvement in the project. Nimbus had a $1.2 billion contract with Israel, accusing the Israeli government of genocide.
Starting point is 00:58:25 One protest stated, we refuse to complicit in the oppression of Palestinians. Protesters occupied the office of Google Cloud, CEO Thomas Kurian in California, and the 10th floor of Google's Manhattan office denouncing the company's ties to Israel. The sit-in was live-streamed on Twitch, showing employees wearing traditional head scarves and displaying slogans against the company's alleged harassment of Arab and Muslim employees according to the protests. Google's actions amount to harassment, bullying and censorship. Rob, if you can play this clip. Go for it. We charge you with genocide. We charge you with genocide. These are Google employees.
Starting point is 00:59:06 We know that the genocide in Gaza is one of the, or is the first AI-powered genocide. So we find that big tech is at the forefront of kind of like streamlining this genocide against Palestinians. Google and Amazon, there's a deal, is there a government called Project Nimbus? streamlining this genocide against Palestinians. Google and Amazon, is there a government called Project Nimbus? When I say go, you say Nimbus. Go, Nimbus! Rob, can you pull up what's Project Nimbus? Tom, are you familiar with Project Nimbus? My understanding is it's an AI project with the government of Israel that there's multiple
Starting point is 00:59:42 technology companies participating in, just like many governments contract For cloud services and other things let's read this Surprises the cloud computing project of the Israeli government's military Israeli finance ministry then ounce April 2020 first a contract to provide the government the defense Of establishment and others with an all-encompassing cloud solution under the contract the companies will establish Local cloud sites that will keep information within Israeli borders under strict security guidelines. Project Nimitz has four planned phases. The first phase is purchasing and contracting, constructing the cloud infrastructure. The second is crafting government policy for moving operations into the cloud.
Starting point is 01:00:20 And the third is moving operations onto the cloud. And the fourth is implementing, optimizing, and operations under $1.2 billion, which is Google and Amazon together. Criticism. The contract has drawn rebuke and condemnation from companies, shareholders, as well as employees over concerns of the project that will lead to further abuse of Palestinians' human rights. Specifically, Ariel, who worked as a marketing manager at Google Education Products, was an outspoken opponent of the project, was given the ultimatum of moving to San Paulo within 17 days of losing her job and a letter announcing her resignation to her colleagues.
Starting point is 01:00:52 Curran wrote that Google systematically silences Palestinians, Jewish, Arab, and Muslim voices concerned about Google's comp- wait, listen to that. Google systematically silences Palestinians, Jewish, Arab, and Muslim voices. Concern about Google's complicity and violations of Palestinians. Why would you silence Jewish if that just like an oxymoron? Human rights to the point of formally retaliating against workers and creating an environment of fear. Yeah, so anybody that criticizes what's
Starting point is 01:01:28 happening is... I mean, I believe that partially. For sure, it's Google! Organizations such as Jewish Voices for Peace and MP Power Change, a campaign called No Tech for Apartheid. Yeah, Tom, what are your thoughts on this? This is just an inspired person who has a soapbox and is speaking out against the company that pays her. My favorite line in this, she filed retaliation complaints at Google's Human Resources Department with the National Labor Relations Board, which dismissed her case based on lack of evidence. Gosh, that's really rough. So yelling isn't evidence.
Starting point is 01:02:09 Basically, you've got Google staffers that are just carrying on here, you know, waving the Palestinian flag for cause. And by the way, there are citizens that are Jewish citizens that are Palestinian that are caught in the middle of this terrible war and they're dying. These are citizens that are dying on the ground. We need a ceasefire. We need a solution to this. We need humanitarian relief to kind of bring things back to reality and to bring some healing.
Starting point is 01:02:37 But you know what? When you speak out against your employer like this, I think 28 of them were fired last night. I think this morning, Rob, don't we have headlines this morning that maybe we didn't catch here? Yeah, they were fired. That they came in this morning and they're like, okay, give me your laptop, give me your badge, see ya. Yeah, 28 fired. There we go. So it's thank you very much. You've interfered long enough. You have a right to free speech, but you don't have a right to interfere with the business. Thank you for playing. Here's what I'll say about these people.
Starting point is 01:03:06 They are the smartest, dumbest people in the world. And I mean that literally. You're smart enough to work at Google, but you're not dumb enough to actually do some research on certain topics. Since this war has started, I've actually done a ton of research, not just go with emotion here. So I firmly believe some of these people, their hearts are in the right place, just their head is stuck in the clouds.
Starting point is 01:03:32 So they're using buzzwords like genocide and apartheid and they're shouting things like from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free. I guarantee you 90% plus of these people have no clue what river or what sea they're even talking about. They have no clue what river or sea even exists over there. You're talking about east of the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea. What that is, is the land of Israel. Basically that means like, yeah, we want it all. We want to kill every person that lives in this land. Did you know that they've done interviews with people protesting? The most poignant example was a guy who was protesting in London. I think Constantine Kissinger has been on the show. He's like, Oh, by the way,
Starting point is 01:04:16 do you know what this means? He's like, I don't really know, mate. I just said the game of the sign. I'm just walking around River of the Sage, just want people to be free. Like he had no clue. And he's calling for literally the genocide of Jews so they don't know what they're talking about by the way don't know if there's a story right here that there's a the house approves a resolution condemning the Palestinian rallying cry of from the river to the sea basically because it's genocide last two things real quick genocide Jews know a thing or two about genocide six million Jews were killed in the Holocaust.
Starting point is 01:04:45 30,000 people have been killed in Gaza. It's horrible, horrible what's happening there, but it's war. They're going after Hamas. If they wanted to kill, right now they're stuck in Ra'afah. We've seen the Egyptian border in Ra'afah. I'm sure you have a video of that, Robert. If they literally wanted to commit commit genocide They could literally go kill a million people today, but they don't okay. They literally could I ask you if Hamas had a million people Cornered in Israel. What would they do? They'd kill them all the last thing the apartheid thing guys the Hamas crew go look it up There's 10 million people living in Israel 10 million 20% 2 million people are Arabs 10 million. 20 percent, 2 million people are Arabs. 20 percent of Israel are Arab Muslims,
Starting point is 01:05:28 so they can live there. Now I challenge you to go look deeper on a map in the Middle East, whether it's Yemen, whether it's Lebanon, whether it's Syria, whether it's Afghanistan, pick a country. They've expelled pretty much all the Jews, by the way. First they come for the Jews, then it's the Christians. How many Christians have been expelled from all these countries? How many Christians, how many churches have been attacked? It doesn't just start with the Jews. A lot of these people, and this is not all Muslims, these are the radicals. They want the caliphate, they want to have Sharia law, and they're coming for it. And I believe when they say death to America, I take them at their word.
Starting point is 01:06:04 And Adam, when you say these people are the dumbest, smartest people ever, I take out the smart. Look at these people. It's 2024. They're all wearing masks as if they work. There's no freaking pandemic. These are the Democratic voting base. And look at all the women. Show me one attractive woman in this whole, she's wearing a blue hair all these people are freaking losers and that's the voting That's the voting base of the Democratic Party problem is you can't even tell if they're attractive you put a mess But I can't tell it maybe that girl in the front of the track This just saw me and the word genocide is in rainbow color Like are you like what are we even talking about you want me to listen to these freaking people because by the way 75% of the
Starting point is 01:06:49 Democratic voting it's single women and I want to say I can't you be more tolerant what's wrong with people that want to wear a mask because maybe you hide your change there. Maybe you hide some money there. But guess what? It doesn't work. So Adam, you hit the nail on the head as you say. They're wearing masks.
Starting point is 01:07:12 They don't know what the hell they're talking about. That right there, these are the people that voted in Joe Biden. This group right here. Do you think these guys all voted for Biden? I'll bet you a million bucks. Those people actually, to be honest with you, those actually people hate Joe Biden. Those are the people that are shouting genocide Joe. That is the Rashida Tlaib crew.
Starting point is 01:07:31 That is the AOC crew. That is the progressive base of the Democratic party. Now they are. Wait a minute. Let me get, they voted it in because they loved him. But now that they're like, oh my God, this Israel thing happened. Now they're turning. You guys want to stay here?
Starting point is 01:07:43 You want to go to Ben Shapiro and Andrew Tate? Nobody loves Joe Biden. They hated Trump. There's too much fighting here. Let's go to Shapiro. Tom, I'll kiss your neck. Ben Shapiro goes nuclear and take down Andrew Tate, selling lies to men, jerking off to his webcam business.
Starting point is 01:07:59 This is Mediae. Heyo! Shapiro went on to read aloud the following social media posts from Tate Thursday. Dear white men, you're F'd. You're being replaced because none of you have children. Even those of you bitching about the replacement online, like little girls, don't find the ... is this a video or is this a post he had? Grumption to F. I see white men bragging about having five kids as if it's an achievement.
Starting point is 01:08:22 LOL. Five? LOL. Per night. per year, right? Oh, all you white boys lost control of your women and now they want to accept multiple wives anymore. Now they tell you they don't want any more kids. One's enough. Don't want to do their God-given job anymore.
Starting point is 01:08:40 They want Instagram likes. Shapiro said, okay, so again, one true thing, many false things, one true thing, people need to be having more kids in a Western civilization. The many false things, marriage is bad, loyalty to your spouse is bad, society can be built on men running around having sex with 30 women and having 30 kids per year, and this is the true meaning of a man, and young men think of like, wow, that sounds amazing that sounds amazing man male seeks to impregnate many females okay that sounds great to a bunch of young men who are jerking off to entertains webcam business it sounds amazing to them that's also not how societies are built. I fully agree you white boys need
Starting point is 01:09:17 to start having some kids y'all I mean I don't know why you wouldn't it's ridiculous but of course I kid because I'm still working on having kids. But look, these are healthy conversations that need to be had because both of these guys I think are beasts in their field. We're big fans of Tate. Do we agree with everything Tate says? No, I don't agree with anything everybody says. Do you? What?
Starting point is 01:09:38 You say we as if you speak on everybody. Just say I. Do I. What I'm saying is when you say we okay we are meaning just independently talk because you may Rob is sitting over there maybe doesn't agree Rob watch videos go ahead make your point collective we yes me myself and for sure we've not paid multiple times we've got some of the greatest conversations ever and I think he's a very necessary voice and I think
Starting point is 01:10:04 he's going through an evolution himself at a different phase of his life. I agree. But continue. And that's my next point is that you're using some of the tactics and some of the things that Tate did, you know, five, 10 plus years ago against him now. That's not fair. Ben, Ben's sort of reeling a little bit. Daily Wire has taken a hit since Candice.
Starting point is 01:10:20 Ben is his shine and exactly what it used to be. And he's going to have to sort of reinvent himself. He's going to have to basically inform people where he stands. But here's how would I differentiate between Tate and Ben. One is completely logical and one uses logic and emotion. The way that Tate speaks has the ability to motivate people and get people on his side. And that's respect about Tate. Ben, I don't know how he's gonna reinvent himself, but he needs to do it. Well, his voice, I don't know if,
Starting point is 01:10:47 the past six months, his voice has gotten annoying to where when he talks, my right eye gets smaller. It's like, you know why? Because like you said, he's just sticking on one topic. He's going all in, people, he's showing his true colors and you know, people are saying- What do you have a problem with what Ben is saying here? With Ben, I just, I just, because-
Starting point is 01:11:02 This specific topic here, what problem do you have with what he's saying here? Because anybody that's judging anybody for being who they are, and like you said, Tate's evolving and doing his thing and going into, and he's bringing up his past as if he knows who he is as a person. Has he ever sat down with him and spoken to him? No, he doesn't. No, he doesn't.
Starting point is 01:11:20 Tom, what are your thoughts on this? Look, I agree with the notion that Andrew Tate speaks very powerfully, very clearly, and he inspires emotion out of it. And I think that Ben, you know, I respect Ben for what he's accomplished and everything, but he's coming across in this very shrill and very reactive and very angry. And it's, you you know it's not do I agree or disagree with the points I just don't think he's doing a good job getting the points across and I think he's coming off very angry and reactive and it doesn't cause people to kind of be drawn in to listen to what you have to say. Yeah so think about the Tate of five years ago or four years ago, right?
Starting point is 01:12:05 He's going viral, you do this, you do that, and girls are this and girls are that, and those clips would go off, right? Because he was saying what maybe many men who had been hurt before or betrayed before by a girl, which is most men, and he was speaking on their behalf, okay? And as a man, when that happens to you publicly, you don't want to talk about it because it's embarrassing and it's happened to all of us when you kind of go through you Like well, no that would never a girl would never do this to me and even take talked about one time how a girl kind of Hurt him and that was a big impact that it had on him And you know, he had his own way of dealing with that but the the tate of today with the life
Starting point is 01:12:42 He's living and now being a Muslim himself, he's making the argument of, he said something about Christian men. He says, it's about time you get angry. Did you see that video Rob? Can you pull this up that Tate had? I think he had it yesterday on Twitter if you can pull this up. He's like, finally I'm seeing you guys getting upset and getting mad. If you can play, it's a video I think.
Starting point is 01:13:04 It's not even a keep going little or or he's sitting outside. He's sitting outside No, that's not it. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going He posts a lot of stuff. Keep going. Keep going. Maybe we're not gonna get to it Anyways, it's a video that he says, you know about time You guys get upset about time you guys do something about about time You guys get vocal about time you guys do something about it, about time you guys get vocal, about time you guys say, and he's right, you know, the Christian community has historically been very tolerant and they kind of sit on the sidelines and don't say anything, just kind of take it.
Starting point is 01:13:32 And he's saying Muslims won't, you know, Muslims will voice their opinion and they're going to be more direct about it than you Christian tolerant men will be. And you know, that's the argument that he's making now on the side that Ben is saying With family and all this stuff. I mean look guys Ben is raising kids In in a family family societal environment where he's teaching him. Is this it? I think this is it Is this this is they still want it? Yeah play it play it. Can you play this clip Rob? I think this is it I think so. Yeah, play it. Play it. Can you play this clip Rob? I think this is it. Great. Not working. Yeah. But that is it. That is the one. Oh, there it is. Try it one more time. You're angry. I don't know why it's taking you so long. Christian men. Even as a Muslim,
Starting point is 01:14:17 even as somebody who's recently reverted, it gives me genuine happiness to see the Christians finally angry about something. You have gay preachers, LGBT drag story hours at your fucking churches. You sit around and turn the other cheek. You have no cheeks left to turn. There's nothing in this world without masculine rage. It's the bottom line of everything. There's no country without men who are prepared to get angry and defend it. There's no idea. There's no house.
Starting point is 01:14:44 There's no religion without masculine rage. They've bred it out of you. And for the first time in a long time, we see Christians finally angry about something. The reason your religion is failing is because this whole bullshit of tolerance and sitting around turning the other cheek is making you globally mocked. You're seen as weak. And when I see Christians mad for the first time in a long time,
Starting point is 01:15:05 although I'm no longer Christian, it makes me feel happy. This is exactly what the world needs. There has to be a line where you say, no, we will not accept. That's how we ended up in this position in the first place, accepting everything. You can pause it. He's saying what you want. You don't like him. He did that. He's right Yeah, by the way, would you have to realize this man Ben Shapiro grew up in a very different upbringing than this guy? Yes, so so so to so to get Ben to understand Tate or Tate to understand Ben are two different things, you know kind of like what Shook was talking about yesterday where he's like dude who taught him those habits
Starting point is 01:15:47 Shook was talking about yesterday where he's like dude who taught him those habits who taught so some so your those things come from Your surroundings if you become a gangster and at a young age you're on a gang and you're on all these other gangster you're gonna be wired in a different way sure if you're a guy that grew up in a Healthy peaceful environment like a bench of p-roll and you're raised where you're going to school and at a young age You want to be the Supreme Court one day and you want, and you playing the piano, you playing the violin in front of thousands of people. But, but it's, but, but they are very, they're very similar and very different at the same time. The passion is very, very similar and very different at the same time. I love what he said about tolerance. Cause you've said, you spoke about this many times.
Starting point is 01:16:23 You said there's four virtues that your family, you pray for the way that you, the way you lead your kids, and the one, one virtue that you've eliminated, which is tolerance, because you've said this before, Christians become a little too tolerant. Yep. Yeah, LGBT. Okay, cool. It's all good. Yeah, now we can have trans preachers.
Starting point is 01:16:39 It's okay. No. Yeah, you know, credit to Islam, credit to Judaism. When do we play that game? Like we kind of have some, especially Islam, they kind of have some things that they don't equivocate on and they're still tolerant on. What I'll say with the evolution of Tate and the evolution of Ben, who do you think has had to evolve more?
Starting point is 01:17:00 I would argue that Tate had to evolve much more. The only difference between Ben, between when he was 20 by the time he's 40, is kids. He was raised in a Jewish Orthodox household. He's worked on himself. He's worked on his business. The only major difference that I can tell perception wise, in my opinion, is having kids. And of course, when you have kids, you evolve.
Starting point is 01:17:17 Tate had to wildly evolve from being an American and moving to London to basically moving to Romania, kickboxing, doing all this, starting a business. He was from the webcam business to everything he's doing now. He's had to evolve massively. So the scale at which he's had to evolve is nowhere near what Ben had to do. But one thing that they definitely agreed upon is the decline in traditional values, especially in the West, especially with women, the traditional women, the trad life women. Where are they now? Now there's baby mama culture, there's hookup culture, there's only fans, there's sex workers, you can make money just sitting
Starting point is 01:17:54 at your house. The single mother epidemic is crazy. You've talked about the stats with that America lead in the world in single mothers, not especially the black community, the Hispanic community, even the black community, the Hispanic community, even the white community popped off without crazy. 75% of black Americans born to single mothers, crazy stats. But men, a little bit different, they talk about this all the time, men are a little bit different. Men can take a little while longer to evolve.
Starting point is 01:18:19 Vinny and I can still have kids at any point we want right now. I challenge a 45 year old woman to have a kid today. It's going to be pretty tough. But men need to take longer than they need to make money. They need to make friends and make a network. When women, you need to start making some babies. 45-year-old kids still have a kid, but it's gonna be tougher.
Starting point is 01:18:34 It's gonna be, they can still have a kid, but it's gonna be tough. But I get it, I get what you're saying. So all right, so let's go to the next story, Tom. What's his name? Our buddy, what page is it on? I thought I was on the right page here. Which guy? Trevor Bauer,auer on I want to go to Bauer page 9. Okay. Here we go page 9 Ready, this one's gonna be interesting folks Rob if you can prepare the video that would be great
Starting point is 01:18:55 Okay, so Trevor Bauer accuser indicted for allegedly trying to extort 3.6 million dollars Darcy Adana court, $3.6 million. Darcy Adana faces up to 16 years in prison if convicted on fraud and extortion charges related to Trevor Bauer, with allegations including obtaining benefits through fraudulent pretenses according to the indictment. Bauer asserts, when I refused to pay her the $3.6 million she was asking for, she made up a bogus sexual assault claim. Bauer claims the encounter with Semonu was initiated by her sharing electronic communications
Starting point is 01:19:32 as evidence stating, we had one plain sexual encounter in December of 2020. Nothing that could be explained remotely rough, she initiated. He alleges a pattern of extortion attempt linking her to previous accusations against him, emphasizing it's hard to keep track, but she's made at least four seven-figure demands over the last few years. Tom, thoughts on the story here? Look, as I said, by the way, do you want to play the first minute? Just play the first minute and then, Tom, you'll react to it.
Starting point is 01:20:02 Go ahead. We had one plain sexual encounter in December of 2020. Nothing that could be considered remotely rough. She initiated it, but don't take my word for it. Take hers. This is a picture and text message she sent me the next morning explaining why she came on to me. And for months afterwards, she repeatedly requested to sleep with me again.
Starting point is 01:20:19 For example, this text from January 7th, 2021. At one point, she even requested a sample of my sperm so she could have my child whenever she wanted to in the future. Now, it's hard to keep track, but she's made at least four seven-figure demands over the last few years. More than a year after the one time we slept together, and only after Lindsay Hill made up her false allegations, Adonna retained a lawyer. She then demanded $3.6 million and claimed I forced her to have an abortion, leaving her emotionally devastated and irretrievably damaged by it. But here's the thing. She never had an abortion because she was never even pregnant.
Starting point is 01:20:52 And that's corroborated by her own medical records. When I refused to pay her the three point six million dollars she was asking for, she made up a bogus sexual assault claim and filed a civil suit against me. In that version of her story, she claimed for the first time, by the way, that there was non-consensual sex, but her texts from the next morning show what actually happened. Remember this text in which she explains why she came on to me? She also claims that instead of an abortion, she actually had a miscarriage, but that's impossible of course, because again, she was never even pregnant. Tom, look, this is just the dark side of cleat chasers And once again this shows where you've got a player who is a very public target and
Starting point is 01:21:35 Everybody's coming out after him. I can remember when you know, there were multiple You I don't even need to recounted there been athletes who have been had multiple women coming after me got a contract you know if you if it is against the law to uh... meet a girl on instagram and you know um... have a date if that's against the law then then basically the NBA playoffs would be reduced
Starting point is 01:22:05 to a two-on-two tournament. That's a good point. Let's be real. And what you have here also is the authorities take so long to do these things. Look how long the Pasadena DA sat on the Lindsay Hill case. And Lindsay Hill lied. She could have been indicted. She lied to the government. She withheld with her attorney obstructed justice. Remember the Duke DA that reacted the public opinion. The Duke DA and the La Crosse case, that DA
Starting point is 01:22:38 was later charged, prosecuted, convicted and incarcerated because he covered up evidence and he manipulated things because public opinion said, oh, these white boys at Duke hired, you know, an exotic dancer. She got upset because she didn't like the tip. She threw all these claims against them, completely unsubstantiated, no evidence whatsoever, but the DA ran with it in the court of public opinion. You know what? This is the new world we live in the world we live in in a hookup culture and things you have these
Starting point is 01:23:09 Women who are cleat-chasing on these things not all the players are good and they get into trouble and they get Suspended when you have domestic violence, but you know what I want to know is where the owners are right now Where are the owners? You know the owners that are standing up and saying, you know what, I'm not, I'm going to let people play when we find out this stuff is false. Once upon a time, you had owners that were bold and that would protect their players. And I don't mean cover up for players that had done legitimately bad things where they were getting prosecuted. If you're filmed in an elevator beating up your girlfriend, you're not going to play in the NFL. Sorry.
Starting point is 01:23:48 If you are filmed beating somebody up and there's 12 witnesses, then guess what? There's an investigation and Ezekiel Elliott didn't play six games. But then the owners come back and say, look, we're the world of second chances. And once you serve your penance or if you haven't done anything in the first place and so you think somebody needs to give them an offer I think someone needs to do it because once upon a time the owners were like these were stallions and now the owners aliens they'd be like owners the owners the owners once upon a time were you know when I say that what I mean is once upon a time owners owners were taking chances.
Starting point is 01:24:25 The reason that we've had great progress because sports owners took chances on people, and sports owners brought people forward, you know? And I think now, owners have become gildings grazing off that TV contract. And you know what? You know, you've got teams like, I mean, if I was the owner of a sports team and I had maybe the reigning Cy Young winner was on the injured list and I looked around, why wouldn't Trevor Bauer be invited? What if we do this?
Starting point is 01:24:56 Here's, I got an idea, Rob, can you Google Chastity Belt? Google Chastity Belt. I have an idea. Trevor Bauer's agent, if you're watching this, if I'm going to talk to any major league baseball team, I would say Trevor Bauer has agreed to wear a Chastity Belt for three years. What's that thing gonna write, Rob?
Starting point is 01:25:18 To make sure nothing is gonna happen. Now these devices, can you look at the history of Chastity Belt? Let's educate some people here. They were worn by men. They were basically women, Pat. Go back to chastity belt, Rob. Rob, 21 right now. Okay, go on.
Starting point is 01:25:31 Devices were reportedly worn by women. Were there chastity belts for men? Can we find chastity belts for men? No, they got Viagra. They want more. So what do we have to do to protect men for the MLB to feel safe that they don't have to worry about this guy's gonna do anything. What can he do? What is you're gonna have ten players just called the the the players association and said if that gets into the CB CBA You know, I'm not playing
Starting point is 01:25:57 Being smart bro using your big head not your little head, but that's not here. No, trust me Like if there's anybody that's gonna be smart moving forward. It's this guy Yeah, well, you know how much money he's lost. He's lost 300 million. I was gonna say hundreds of millions FYI if this guy just listened to him every time he does a video You know what I think about I think about this guy could be such a great lawyer. He's at this point He's probably already qualified to be a lawyer. He's probably passed a bar exam He probably could get his JD and at the same time the more and more and more he has to explain himself why girls are throwing at him for sex, he could be the next Hugh Hefner, Tom.
Starting point is 01:26:30 I mean, if you wanted to be like the guy that, you know, in the book Art of Seduction, it was always the guy that this, they write about. So who knows, maybe Robert Green's going to write a new book about it. Here's my parting shot. You know what? Get to the point, Otis. The court of public opinion, the court of public opinion, is played out on MSNBC and CNN.
Starting point is 01:26:51 And if I was an owner, I wouldn't worry about MSNBC and CNN talking about this because they don't air ball games and they haven't done any contracts with leagues. I wouldn't worry about that. Finally you give your point. There it is. That's exactly right.
Starting point is 01:27:02 And I would say this, I think people like Stephen a They've got sources inside leagues and inside players associations, and I ask a question Why isn't this man back at work? Trevor Bauer throwing off the bump for a major league team right now. There's no team Don't want the heat Team has their own direction to sign who they want. Chastity bill is getting tight. Tom, Rob, what are you going to say?
Starting point is 01:27:29 Stephen A., you got to call him out. You got to call out the league chair that's more than just Bauer. It's the court of public opinion. Can I say something? Let these falsely accused guys play. Tom, can my friend Vinny say something today? Well, Rob is about to jump out of his freaking chastity bill. Let the guy talk because I have one thing I want to say. Go ahead. It's just interesting. Tom brought up Ray Rice. Tom we can't hear you turn on the mic.
Starting point is 01:27:47 Turn on. It's on they don't have me on. Oh okay. Tom brought up Ray Rice. Did you know and everybody saw that video. No he brought up Ezekiel Elliott mistakenly. It should be Ray Rice. No but he said both. He brought up the elevator to Borgata in Atlantic City where Ray Rice was filmed assaulting his girlfriend knocking her out. Do you know December 29th the last year the Ravens honored rain right? Yes. And the legends game, they actually brought him out on the field. The entire stadium stood up and applauded this girl on camera, beating his wife. Trevor Bauer never was arrested. He was never charged with anything.
Starting point is 01:28:19 And he's been cleared by all four victims of victims that accused him of these acts. And yet this guy can't get past it. And the Pasadena DA obstructed justice. So here's my point. Here's the point that I wanted to make is he lost how much money? $350 million. Hundreds of millions. No doubt.
Starting point is 01:28:36 The innocent into proven guilty was not applied here. Cy Young Award winner. Is he going to be able to get legal action because the Dodgers, is that where he was? They fired him basically, right? They fired him because of just allegations, right? He can't get any of that. You can't sue for that? No.
Starting point is 01:28:54 Because he- No. You can't sue for anything. This is America. You can't sue for anything. But to win is a different story. By the way, with Trevor Bauer, here's my one question. Should we still believe all women?
Starting point is 01:29:04 That was out there. Is this what we're at right still believe all women that was up? That was thrown out the window years ago. Yeah, here's this way. By the way, here's the second half of the story She didn't just do with the Trevor that Bauer. She did it to another dude as well How many other dudes did she do this to? So we've seen there's a clip Trevor actually talks about that. So his team his legal team subpoenaed a witness and then this woman went and accused the witness of sexual assault so that she, the witness could not testify on Trevor Bowers behalf. I haven't heard of it if you want to see that. Yeah. Well, you're pulling it up and we'd all love to see that. By the way, what a qualified cycle. But these
Starting point is 01:29:39 women are out there like they're called cleat chasers or Jersey jumpers. We've seen these ladies out there. This is why someone like a a Drake not that he's a athlete rapper. This is why when he uses a condom wrap it up Trev Puts hot sauce in the condom remember that story what's in the woman? You don't remember the store was viral about a year ago. She's literally he put hot sauce in the condom lying in bed And he hears the women screaming from the back He's just lying in bed and he hears the women screaming from the back Because she tried to take the used condiment Wow, and she realized the hard way the hot way that ain't way to do it
Starting point is 01:30:11 So guys get some get some get some hot sauce But by the way, what's gonna happen to the woman who actually ruined this dude's that hot sauce nice to get credit Whatever the brand is Lindsey Hill There it is right there. But what's going to happen to the woman who actually ruined his life? This wasn't even the main lady. Lindsay Hill wasn't charged, but she should have been charged. And the Pasadena DA sat on everything in the court of public opinion. They had inadequate evidence. They absolutely sat at it. And the Pasadena DA should have been taken down the same way the
Starting point is 01:30:41 Duke DA was taken down, who was charged, prosecuted, convicted, and the same way the Duke DA was taken down who was charged prosecuted convicted and then Incarcerated for the Duke lacrosse case that DA ended up in prison And not only did Lindsay Hill not face any type of consequences from the authorities She actually got a three hundred thousand dollar payout from her insurance company. That was her name Lindsay He'll she actually lied about the charges and they got a three hundred thousand dollar paid. He's not lying So here's the hill. This is a 23 second clip Pat it's cool. This is him talking about Darcy the woman that accused him of impregnating her and then forcing her to get an abortion It gets worse in my lawsuit against her we subpoenaed a witness whom she knew for relevant documents to use in our case
Starting point is 01:31:23 And when she found out she immediately made sexual assault claims against him It's clear lie to men to get their money extort them if she must and when they refuse to pay stop paying or stop giving Her what she wants go to the police accuse him of sexual assault and file a civil suit against them to retaliate By the way, think about it if you're on tinder and this girl's got a date, right? Of course you go on a date and it's her. How are you feeling right there? Oh, can you imagine you're on the you're like? You waiter comes. Can you please record this entire thing? I'll give you a thousand bucks and please give me a side of hot sauce Yeah, can you can you please and you tell her you say I'm leaving I am you've joked about this
Starting point is 01:32:04 We're not even joking. You've said that any famous figure any public figure nearly needs to shoot a video be like hi I'm bill. I'm sitting here with Susie Phone would be filled with those videos. Listen lawyer, which one do you want? Here we go. This is the file I've been to parties in Miami. I've been to places, you know They literally make women sign NDAs when they walk in the room. Elon Musk has done it at his parties. I've seen celebrities do their parties. You gotta protect yourself. Wrap it up. Is that a trans? No, she's just not the most attractive girl. She looks like a trans. Have you ever seen the video on Adam
Starting point is 01:32:37 22? He's interviewing this girl and you know, this guy, Adam 22. And she's like, yeah, yeah, I've con man out. One time he stopped paying my bills and he stopped basically funding my life in so many words Yeah, I called the Department of Child and Family Services. They took his kids. Yeah He's like you took they took the guys kids. Yeah, she's like, yeah, you don't mess with me He's like, what did he do? She's just like he stopped giving me money. Yeah, it's like was he married to you? No, well your sugar baby. Yeah, it's like well, they took his kids. This is out there. You are all women like this No guy as a guy if he's going through that that's what you deserve you fell for that trap So it's going to clubs and girls on Tinder
Starting point is 01:33:17 By the way, Vinny this validates what you're looking into just have an AI girlfriend none of this drama No, by the way, we go to the next story. Next story, okay, parents of Michigan school shooter, Ethan Crumley, both sentenced to 10 or 15 years for involuntary manslaughter, NBC News. The first parents to ever be charged and convicted in their child's mass shooting at a U.S. school were both sentenced Tuesday to 10 or 15 years in prison after they faced the victims' families. At a sentencing hearing in Michigan courtroom. James Crumley and his wife Jennifer were sentenced one after another by circuit court judge Cheryl Matthews as they appeared together for the first time since they attended joint hearings
Starting point is 01:33:58 before landmark trials were separated last fall. Their son, Ethan, now 17, pleaded guilty as an adult to a 2021 shooting at Oxford High School in suburban Detroit and was sentenced to life in prison. Matthew's sentencing decision was in line with the Oakland County's prosecutors had asked for, after both parents were found guilty on four counts of involuntary manslaughter, one for each other of the students their sons killed. I love, I absolutely, now I know you're gonna go up, I'll just set you up and I'll let you go. I think, I hope every single state takes this law because I'm sick and tired of every single
Starting point is 01:34:38 time something like this happens. The government goes in front of the camera they go, eh, we got to grab the guns. Take the guns, take the guns, because at the end of the day, that is their goal, is to unarm us. But I think in this case, 100%, I mean, obviously the kid, you know, kids off, I mean, look at this kid. Bob, can you show a picture of this guy? That is the typical kid that would come, like,
Starting point is 01:34:58 when you see that, Yeah, exactly. But he said, because think about it, there was no, this is what the judge said, the judge just said, she sentenced the parents for failing to take steps that could prevent a runaway train. Judge Cheryl Matthews said, these convictions are not about poor parenting, these convictions from repeated acts of lack of acts that could have been halted.
Starting point is 01:35:18 Okay, she goes, there was no testimony from specialists, no, the shooter's state of mind. He said, this is what he wrote in his journal. I have zero help from my mental problems, and it's causing me to shoot up the effing school. I want help. My parents don't listen to me, so I can't get any help. And mind you, do you know they brought him to buy a gun a couple days before the shooting? That's what you get for ignoring your kids.
Starting point is 01:35:41 And I think this is going to be a lesson. When parents start seeing this, Adam, especially in that neighborhood, that town, that state, you know what they're gonna say? I better get involved. The kid's starting to talk crazy. If he's staying home, he has no friends, and then you go buy him a freaking gun? What are you freaking nuts?
Starting point is 01:35:57 Adam. Yeah, look, they're gonna get what they deserve. And when this story happened, and I can't remember if it was this shooting or the shooting that happened the next day or the next week or the next month or the next year, because I can't keep track of how many school shootings there are. And I don't know why the schools are gun-free zones. They should be police zones to protect the kids.
Starting point is 01:36:22 This started, this culminated with Columbine in the late 90s. And then when it happened under the Obama administration and Sandy Hook, it went off the Richter scale. And we've all been looking for solutions. And we know what happened with Alex Jones and what he did with Sandy Hook. Sorry, Alex, you get a lot of things right. You were dead wrong on this one. But I said in a podcast, when the hell are the parents going to have accountability? And I went off on the lack of accountability in the parents and the comment section, sometimes it does it, went off on me. How the hell the parents going to be in trouble for the actions of their kids?
Starting point is 01:36:57 How the hell will this happen? I said, something needs to happen for accountability. And you said there was a lack of action on the parents part. If you're going to raise a piece of shit, if you're going to raise a kid who murders, mows down 10, 20, dozens of kids at school, and you think, and a lot of times the shooter is killed. Yeah, a lot of the time. And so where's the accountability? What happens there? The only people sometimes left standing are the parents what happens to them now you might say how are they gonna get in trouble?
Starting point is 01:37:30 What have they done? What have they proven to be done to actually save kids lives? Have you alerted the authorities have you putting the kid into some sort of site your psychiatric help? What have you done because if you can show proof that you've done something look I know that my kids off Here's what I've done here the med would you buy my gun would you buy my foot if you're if you done? Because if you can show proof that you've done something, look, I know that my kids off. Here's what I've done. Yeah. Here the meds that I've done. Would you buy him a gun? Would you buy him a fricking gun? But if you're essentially encouraging or even just sort of looking the other way, you're going to be held accountable.
Starting point is 01:37:56 And I'm glad there's now finally some precedent for raising a piece of shit. And it pisses me off when people say, you know, Adam, do you know how much it's gonna cost to put a metal detector or security or a cop in a school? Oh, you mean to tell me the 112, how much have we sent to Ukraine? The hell with that freaking place. I want, by the way, the most vulnerable people, our children, are in these schools,
Starting point is 01:38:21 no security, no metal detectors, but we're just shipping money everywhere. Tom, as a parent, what are your thoughts? Well, I have a couple thoughts, and I have an informed point of view because the BizDoc babe, Kim, is a teacher. She will tell you that from private schools to public schools, you have parents that are active and involved and willing to listen to teachers that say, hey, there's some behavioral challenges here, there's some things going on, and parents that are willing to work with you on it. And then you have parents that are then at home,
Starting point is 01:38:50 you have parents that enable and don't control access to the internet, don't control access to, you know, you're just unfettered, you know, access to, you know, mobile devices going looking at whatever and confettered access to mobile devices, going looking at whatever, and controlling access to firearms in the home. And then the third category is admitting when you have a teenager that's got these behavioral things, admitting you need help and getting counseling. And there are parents that she says, I can see it. She says, I can see in fifth graders, parents that are active and are trying to be involved and are trying to work with,
Starting point is 01:39:29 listen to the school, and then through counseling and being active with their child and be there. And then parents that are like, the nanny is dropping them off at Carline in the SUV, and the nanny's picking them up. It says, and I only get one parent that comes to just a regular grade level counseling. We'll talk about their grades, their progress, classroom behavior, how they're doing, what they could work on at home.
Starting point is 01:39:51 These aren't kids that are on spectrum or anything. These are regular kids. And you only get one parent there and they're checking their watch and she says, I can tell you where these teenagers are going to be the ones where the parents aren't involved. They wake up at 16 years old and the kid gets suspended for something. Hopefully not a shooting, dear God. But she says, I know the parents are going to go, I don't know what happened. I don't know what happened. You weren't active in your kid's life and I can take you back to when they were in fifth grade and I can tell you what was happening to them. And you were just letting them be willy-nilly at home and read whatever they want on the internet
Starting point is 01:40:23 and not be active in their lives. And then when your kid had maybe attention deficit and things going on, you didn't admit it and work with counselors to kind of help your kid. And I don't mean just run the medicine cabinet and fill them full of Ritalin. I mean work with them and find out, hey, the kid's grown up. How much soda does he drink? Does he drink a joke? Oh, he loves Red Bull. Maybe lay off the Red Bull.
Starting point is 01:40:42 It's just simple things. But parents own it. Parents own the first line of defense here and they don't take it. Can I ask you a question? Because you've done a lot of content on single mothers, single kids that are born to single parent households. In my opinion, the type of person that does these school shootings, these are weak, broken kids. This is not, you're not strong walking into a school and shooting up kindergartners. You're not strong. So there's a big difference between being a baby daddy and a dad.
Starting point is 01:41:12 So you've done tons of content about what it means to be a dad. When you see this story, how does it resonate with you? First of all, so okay, let's go through a case. Alright, so the kid is raised by mom and dad that are married to each other. That's one case. Kid is raised by a mother who has a boyfriend that's a psychopath, teaching him bad habits and abusing him behind closed doors, but the biological father is not there. Does he go to jail?
Starting point is 01:41:38 If the son is being raised by the father, that is a guy that's going through what he's going through, but the mother is moved on with her. There's so many different scenarios with this that makes me, it doesn't apply in every situation. This should not be used in every single situation if the parents are, because in most cases, if 40% of kids right now are being raised, are being born to a mother who is like a single mother, 40%. It number right now? 40%. It went from 4% to 40%. If that's the case, what percentage of kids, Rob, can you type in what percentage of kids right now have dual parents raising them? Divorce happens. Marriage is very hard. It happens all the time. But what percentage? Most children are 70% and two parents who are 63% living with both biological
Starting point is 01:42:24 parents. So, okay, got it. So, that's the number you're looking at right now. So to me, it's a very technical situation here because you don't necessarily fully know who is having a negative influence over the other person. And we're just watching Trevor Bauer, A Girl Can Lie. So the mother says, well, he learned all this stuff from his dad. He never learned this stuff from me. Now you got that whole argument. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:42:49 I think it's just a lot of different, a lot of bad opportunities opens up for innocent people to go to jail. And you made a great point the other day. I don't know if you remember it. You were like, now, I mean, don't run. I still think if you bought the kid a gun and he's crazy and he's on pills and you ignore him, I think the parents have to have to pay the price. But you said something the other day, PBT, we're in a meeting and you said,
Starting point is 01:43:11 if now the kid knows that he can go, hey mom and dad, do this or do this or do that or I'm going to go kill and you're going to go to jail. Now it's like a leverage. Yeah, but that's a leverage. Great point Vinny. But that's my point about what did they do about it? Did they alert the authorities and say, by the way, I'm raising a leverage. That's a leveraging. Great point Vinny. That's my point about what did they do about it? Did they alert the authorities and say by the way, I'm raising a psychopath. He's wearing a trench coat to sleep. Like exactly. I'm worried. I'm not even being like I'm not trying to joke right now.
Starting point is 01:43:35 I'm being dead secret. I'm worried that my son or my daughter, whoever might do something. I'm putting this on the record because they're making threats and I would like this just to be on the record. At that point, the parent is now not culpable for what the kid does. Now they should still step into the kid's life, but at least they alerted the authorities. If you don't do anything and you're raising this kid who's doing this, then yes, you're going to be held responsible like these people in Michigan. There's gray areas, Tom. It makes me uncomfortable. This makes me uncomfortable too. But in this case, Pat, the due process played out. They ignored things.
Starting point is 01:44:09 Absolutely, and they ignored things. They were living together, so both of them were tried together. They bought a firearm two weeks ahead of time. So did this court case- Not this case. Not this case. Of course this case, I'm with it. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:44:23 You're saying in general. What are you talking about? I'm with this case. Of course this case. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. You're saying in general. What are you talking about? I'm with this case. Yeah. What I'm saying is if this becomes a precedent for future Issues like this that it happens you go directly to the mom and dad bro. What if the dad is not not even in a picture Yeah, well then if he's not under the roof and he lives in Bolivia then you know, how can you try him? Yeah, I agree with him. But what here's the thing, do you think this will lower the mass shootings? I'm not even talking about on a- I think so. In that state, you're not gonna see, I guarantee you, in five years, the mass shooting in that
Starting point is 01:44:58 place is not gonna happen. Let me tell you, you know that change change starts with within and with all it takes is one. Yeah. Because let me tell you, all it needs is one parent to hear about this and say, you know what? He's, you know, a little Timmy out there. I'm worried. Let me, let me do something. It starts with one.
Starting point is 01:45:14 Oh, this probably is already saved a bunch of lives. And then you just say, like, this saves lives. Big time. Okay. Because now you're forcing them to get involved if they weren't. One hundred percent. I agree. Two things. If it leads to firearm safety and control and counseling and identifying
Starting point is 01:45:26 kids, those two simple things. If it leads people to say, man, we have a second amendment here and we're going to protect our house, but we're going to keep things locked up properly, that's a win. Number one, because the house is still protected. They don't have to give up their second amendment rights and the child doesn't have access to the firearm and second if they if somebody somewhere Says you know what I admit it my child's got an issue. We need counseling. That's a win. Yeah, okay Let's go to the next story UAE government denies cloud seeding took place before Dubai floods the NBC story the National Center Meteorology refuted the allegations of conducting cloud seeding operations before during the heavy storms that led to flooding in Dubai with deputy Director Omar
Starting point is 01:46:10 Alize Alize these same we did not conduct any seeding operations during this event despite Reports suggest that cloud seeding played a role in the heavy rainfall and CM clarified that they did not target any cloud during that period clarified that they did not target any cloud during that period, attributing the storm to natural causes rather than human intervention, emphasizing that NCM does not conduct cloud seeding operations. During extreme weather events, cloud seeding integral to the UAE's effort to address water shortage has been utilized since the 90s, with over 1,000 hours of seeding performed annually. However, the unprecedented downpours overwhelm the country's infrastructure, highlighting
Starting point is 01:46:51 the challenges posed by climate change, induced shifts in weather patterns. This is what CNBC is saying. Show us the clips, Rob, so we can kind of see this, how bad it is. This is Dubai. Oh my God. That is insane. Dude. That's not Miami that's Dubai that's Dubai goodbye Dubai oh my wow yeah Adam you know what they need
Starting point is 01:47:14 you hear the thunder you hear the thunder dude that's it you mess with Mother Nature you mess with the plan and this is what happens Tom did you go with us to Dubai mess with the plan and this is what happens Tom did you go with us to Dubai or no? No, I didn't but you know Adam you know what they need They need a Jewish guy with a cane so he could cross the street Like 4,000 years the airport one was crazy look at what, look, dude. What's this? That looks like a... What is this from? This is just more B-roll footage of some of the storms.
Starting point is 01:47:51 The worst storm in 75 years. Oh wow, that's like... Look at that, dude, look at that. What? Dude, I would think, like, if you're there, you'd think it's the end of the world. Look, look, look, look, the trees are coming out of the ground. Yo. Look at that, look at the world. Look at the trees are coming on the ground. Hmm. Yo, look at that. Look at the airport. The plane is all my God. There goes a patio furniture. Wow. And this is in Dubai. There's nothing of Dubai that would make you think that it's
Starting point is 01:48:18 like this. Vinny, what do you think? Well, first of all, like this just goes to like, I love how everybody calls people that talk about cloud seeding and they call it a conspiracy and they say, you know, the spraying of these airplanes because the airplanes are releasing stuff. When you look up in the sky, have anybody noticed in the last couple of years, and by the way, the same thing happened on Australia. This was the worst flood they'd seen. PBD, they call it Tasmania floods. Look at what they're doing.
Starting point is 01:48:42 Can I play this clip really fast? This is in Australia a couple of years ago. Look at what they're doing. Can I play this clip really fast? This is in Australia a couple years ago. Look at this Tasmania are demanding to know why cloud seeding was conducted over the Derwent River catchment the day before the worst floods in 40 years. 40 years. Look at that. That's what they do. Cloud seeding is a technique used to increase rain. Hydro Tasmania has confirmed it flew a cloud seeding flight despite the weather warnings. Farmers believe the technique could have made the flooding worse. Okay Rob, that's good. I think this is what happened when you mess with Mother Nature. I understand Dubai, they're trying to make it rain and they're trying to do this and that. Listen, you're in Dubai, it is what it is. And then I saw this video about David Keith,
Starting point is 01:49:23 I sent it to Rob. He was on Stephen Colbert, which I'm shocked. He was trying to be funny, but he was making the point where this guy talked about geoengineering, which is the deliberate effort to manipulate the climate by reflecting more sunlight back into space. It mimics the process that occurs in the aftermath of a large volcanic eruption. In theory theory spraying sulfur Acid and similar particles in sufficient quantities could potentially ease global warming This is him saying that Gulfstream business jets could fly around and spray this shit in the air and we would breathe it in
Starting point is 01:49:56 God Rob, this is it You could actually spray sulfuric acid in the stratosphere 20 kilometers over our head and use that to stop the planet warming up in a kind of ugly tech fix. You can spray something into the atmosphere to change. Okay, okay. Spray pollution into the atmosphere to stop it warming. How do you do this? You start with a fleet of modified business jets
Starting point is 01:50:17 and say 20,000 tons of sulfuric acid into the stratosphere every year and each year you have to put a little more and this doesn't in in the long run, mean that you can forget about cutting emissions. We will need to rein in it. No, we'll get to it eventually. In the meantime, we're shrouding the earth in sulfuric acid.
Starting point is 01:50:34 So people are terrified about talking about this, because they're scared that it will prevent us cutting emissions. Right, and also that it's sulfuric acid. We put 50 million tons of sulfuric acid in the air now as pollution, and it kills a million people a year. A million! Okay, but it'll be better if we put more in.
Starting point is 01:50:51 We're talking about 1% of that. 1% more, we're just killing 10,000 more people. You can do math. What happens to the sulfuric acid after it's sprayed? Does it just stay up there? No, it rains down, but it's a tiny addition. Well, we'll already do it. Is there any possible way this could come? Yeah, he's pitching it! He's pitching it, No, it rains down, but it's a tiny addition Yeah, he's pitching it he's pitching it right it's almost done look look and now he's talking about chemtrails watch this turns out to be an old idea this was known since president johnson you ever
Starting point is 01:51:15 look at those planes up there they have contrails behind them maybe all those planes are the contrails maybe they're actually spraying chemicals in the atmosphere right now and uncle sam isn't telling us seems extremely unlikely Is not telling something to its citizens Genius and advertising is to sell you the solution to the problem So going to my point messing with messing with nature spraying spraying us and we're breathing this shit in. That's why cancer is up. That's why all these problems are up. What's the argument though, Tom?
Starting point is 01:51:47 Is the argument the fact that this is not being done? Or is the argument the fact that what's bothering some of the folks, Tom? Well, I think that what's very funny, not funny, what's happening in Dubai is terrible. There's people suffering over there, bad things happening. But I found it pretty interesting that moments after this rainstorm starts, Omar alia ZD jumps up and says, wasn't us. Wait a minute. That's called the shaggy defense. It wasn't me. Yeah, exactly. But he jumps up almost immediately saying it wasn't us. And it's like, there wasn't time for the newspapers to come out with a story, Pat. And these guys are up there, Hey, we weren't conducting cloud seating this week. Yeah. And then we'll, and some of them were claiming that it doesn't hold on, that, that it
Starting point is 01:52:32 doesn't exist. And this is a way trying, look, they've been trying cloud seating for, and they've been doing cloud seating for decades to try to influence rain over farm areas during dry seasons or during normal seasons that were overly dry. They've been doing this for a long, long time. Do you think it happens here at all, Tom? Do you think they ever mess with it over the United States? And then, I don't know, hurricanes happen, weather that we've never seen happens, and they're like causing disaster. I can't tell you if one causes the other, but I can tell you they've been doing cloud seeding for an Awful long time and either it doesn't work or they're getting some result out of it But the thought of putting excess chemicals up there and this this guy what this guy is talking about is nuclear winter if it gets Too warm on earth
Starting point is 01:53:17 We'll just make a nuclear winter because when the volcanoes go up it actually leaves things Too cool and it blocks the Sun which prevents by the way oxygen drops down because things go down In terms of coolness, but you block the Sun from getting the plants plants eat carbon dioxide and then give you oxygen Yeah, well these are these climate the bullet this that guy's attitude is this climate activism shit where they're like we're gonna control it We're gonna block the Sun But as you just heard and that's probably a conservative number a million people Die each year because of the shit that they're spraying in the sky But climate act John Kerry and all them if you pick if you're gonna pick things out of there and decide
Starting point is 01:53:53 He's either you know lunatic Scientist let's wrap up your address. Yeah, well, he's not well My best friend Adrian is there right now International war correspondent has been forever there. He is right there. He's in Dubai. As we speak, Pat, you know, Vinny, you sort of met him. When you, when he was drinking, Vinny tried to fight. Why are you showing this? I was, I'm showing the videos. I'm not, I'm not highlighting this. He said a bunch of
Starting point is 01:54:19 videos, but I said, dude, what the hell's going on over there? Like you're on the ground. What the hell are you doing? Oh, I'm sorry Go ahead keep going. I'm showing the videos. This is what this is. This is he's filming this as we speak I said dude, what the hell's going on here? There's another video right there. We show real quick But I said, what's your take? He's a he's you worked for Bloomberg. He worked for CNN. He's worked for NBC He's been around the block. He's a correspondent. He kind of knows what he's talking about in this regard. He said, look, I've been in four major storms in flash flood events all around the world in the last year, including Miami, New York, Seoul, and now Dubai.
Starting point is 01:54:55 The bottom line is more heat equals more condensation equals more rain. In my opinion, no government, especially UAE's has the ability to cause this type of flooding and this type of rain within 24 hours. Yes, cloud seeding is a thing. Yes, weather manipulation is a thing. But also you have to know that it's been the hottest, hottest weather on record here in the Arabian Peninsula peninsula. And they have desert soil, not the limestone that's porous like we have in Miami to soak up everything here. By the way, just a little fact, the winds here were in excess of 30 miles per hour.
Starting point is 01:55:30 So it's not just this alleged cloud seeding. It was also a big storm that was passing through the Sinan Peninsula that affected the Persian Gulf, the Sea of Oman, and Iran as well. I'll send you videos to prove it. There it was. Here's what I'll say. There's fact and then there's opinions. Is it a fact that cloud seeding and weather manipulation is a thing? Yes. I mean, and I would assume it's for the purpose of making deserts, having
Starting point is 01:55:56 the ability to have rain technology advancement. Did it happen here? Speculation, but we'll see what happens here. But it's a very interesting story. Oh, hell yeah. Okay. All right. So next Thursday, podcast with Tulsi Gabbard, go to 59.90 Live to get registered to be with us. It'll be a two and a half hour podcast with potentially one of the names coming up as a VP, Tulsi Gabbard. For those of you that are competing with Manek, it's been on fire for two days. Those that want to come down to have dinner with myself, Tom, Vinny and Adam at Casa de Angelo and afterwards going to the cigar lounge, you can simply go to that QR code

This is also people who have Manecta before. Dustin's at the top. John Ray, Josh Oakley. This contest goes from April 16th to May 31st and can you go to home team on the middle by the way can you go to the home team in the middle just show home team. I'm gonna be upset. Home team on the middle Rob in the middle right there zooming a little bit Thomas got 52 I'm 48 Vinny's 47 Adam hasn't responded to a single manet the last two days. Okay listen let me just say this this whole weekend I'm gonna be Manecting. This whole
Starting point is 01:58:05 weekend. I'm just letting you know. We don't need explanation. Let me just wrap it up. Okay, so going back to this. Okay, so Manect, if you want to compete in this, download the Manect app, start Manecting today, cannot wait to have dinner with you guys. We'll announce it in June on the date, but the contest goes from April 16 to May 31st. Gang, yes. No, I'm just saying I'm going to be answering on Mannequin. Adam, I got to wrap up.
Starting point is 01:58:30 The haters out there, send me a message. I'm no longer answering DMs, nothing. It's only Mannequin. Gang, have a great weekend. Rob, do we have a podcast tomorrow or no? No, but we do have Shug Night coming out later today or tomorrow. Shug Night will be coming a later on today If not tomorrow, God bless everybody. Take care. Bye. Bye. Bye
