Anyways, China foreign minister replied for me. That's fine. China's foreign minister replaced after unexplained absence. There's some stuff going on there. One in five Americans

Starting point is 00:03:10 says they will never be able to retire. Daily Mail article. Here's the next one. Americans expect an inheritance of $700,000 in an next decade. That makes sense because of baby boomers, Jamie Foxx, Teases, Big Things coming soon. Standoff between Rogan and Trump

Starting point is 00:03:27 over the podcast invites. We'll maybe talk about that. We got half of the voters open to a third party. We didn't talk about that last time. We have to talk about the Rhonda Santos firing, the third of its staff. After having raised the kind of money he started, his super PAC started off with $130 million

Starting point is 00:03:43 and he had another $20 million. As everybody said, this guy's got all this money raised, but Trump did something in Iowa that's unheard of. Wait till you hear what kind of money Trump raised in Iowa. We'll talk about that. Rates, a fed, raises interest rates to 22 year high, times got some feedback on it. What else I got here?

Starting point is 00:04:01 Two California banks merge, UPS teamsters, they finally reach a labor deal to avoid strike. Hopefully that'll inspire Hollywood, the writers and actors to figure that out as well. Mortgage rates, highest. Tom, 7.9%. I think it's 7.7%. Couple billionaires came out,

Starting point is 00:04:20 having paid Epstein $158 million over five years. This is new story. Something happened in Temecula where they were worried about Gavin Newsom finding them one and a half million dollars. So they finally caved and approved controversial LGBTQ curriculum. That's why I think California's issue is a statewide issue that they're dealing with. And then this exodus that California is experiencing, they're saying it's going to be happening till 2060. That's some interesting data.

Starting point is 00:04:47 I don't know if you guys saw this video of a lady running, running San Francisco with a gun in the middle of the freeway shooting people. We'll show you that in a last but not least market watch owned by news corps, news corps owns Fox news. They wrote an article. Here's the headline. Why even confidence swimmers can drown according to water safety experts. Okay.

Starting point is 00:05:06 Why would you write that article in the first place? Anyways, let's go on to some of the business stories that we have here. So, federates interest rates to 22-year high leaves door open for more. This is a Bloomberg story. So, here we go. Federals of interest rates, rates from 5 and a quarter to 5 and a half, high in 22 years.

Starting point is 00:05:29 Looking ahead, we will continue to take a data dependent approach in determining the extent of additional policy firming that may be appropriate, it says Jerome Powell. Powell highlights encouraging signs of inflation, but warns that policy has not been restrictive enough for long enough to have its full desired effects, indicating a possibility of further tightening, the FOMC upgrades economic growth to moderate from modest while expressing concern over elevated inflation and service sector categories

Starting point is 00:05:58 due to tight labor markets and expects credit tightening to impact the economy following bank failures, Tom. Wow, so we kind of saw that coming, got another quarter point, the Fed rate now It's credit tightening to impact the economy following bank failures, Tom. Wow. So we kind of saw it coming. Got another quarter point. The Fed rate now five and a half, you know, it sits there five and a quarter, five and a half. There's always a little tiny spread, which means it's just putting more pressure on everything.

Starting point is 00:06:17 But what he said is very interesting. He said, remember, we've been waiting for the Fed to interpret figures. Well, you know, we've been, and listen to what does the Fed say that he thinks it's a moderate problem or a modest problem. And we, we, we hang on the words of the Fed. But now he's saying it's going to be data dependent. And number one, he said, you know, inflation rose by 3% through June. But that was only one month.

Starting point is 00:06:41 And it was really like closer or four and a half. And getting down to 2% as a long way to go. And then he said, when we get together on September 19th and 20th, remember, this is a longer, this is the longer summer break for the Fed. We're going to be all the way September 19th and 20th before they get together again. And we're just sitting here 20th of July, which is a week ago. So it's effectively two, almost two months. And what he said was, I will have two more job reports and two more consumer price reports

Starting point is 00:07:10 in hand by that gathering. So what he's saying now, basically, is the stock market is going to be able to predict and manage what the Fed says in September, because it's going to be a data-driven approach. We don't have to wait for Jerome Powell to say, I feel this, or you know how we hang on his words, modest, moderate, major, what word did he use? Now he's saying it's gonna be data. So we're gonna look at those job reports

Starting point is 00:07:36 and a consumer price reports. If the job report is too hot, if the consumer price index is too high, then he's probably coming with a quarter point on September. But the market, you're going to see the market react as soon as the reports come out because it's going to tell the market what he's going to do because he says we're going to data driven. And I think that I think is a sign that things are getting better in the stability of the

Starting point is 00:07:59 economy. He also said, I don't really see a recession this year. I think we've been able to surf this thing out a little bit, which means maybe everything the Fed did here, even though we had a lot of layoffs, people were looking for work. Maybe we've gotten through this thing. And so I think-

Starting point is 00:08:17 What's a 30-of-fix right now? 30-of-fix right now. So let's go to more. It's like 6.0 per se. Rob, yeah, that I sent you the link. 6.8? Well, watch this. Well, what would you expect? What happened overnight with the rate goes up a quarter point? You'd expect to be up a little bit. It was a link I sent you from Google

Starting point is 00:08:34 on the in your email. Anyway, so I'll just pull the Florida half a million 20% down state of Florida mortgage, credit score, 68699. That is where the majority of America is, or just under, 30 or fix, 7.95. What? 7.95, $500,000 mortgage. What? With a 20% down. Correct.

Starting point is 00:09:01 680 to 699, 7.95. Correct. As of this morning, and you can see a little spike up right there that happened overnight. So we're still going to see, we're still going to see those rates, you know, between six and three quarters and seven. And people say, well, I'm, you know, people were writing the comments. So I got a six and a quarter. Yeah, what'd you pay? Two points. Oh, okay. Well, you really did pay the rate, but the points just make your payment less artificially,

Starting point is 00:09:28 because you paid the points up front. So it's that's where it's going. So that's where the rates are, but it's still going to be heavy on mortgages, which means as we've been talking about homes, the supply is still going to be getting this pressure. Well, quick fact check of myself, the, I said 6.8, it's actually the 15 year fixed, the 30 years closer to the number Tom said in the the 7.9

Starting point is 00:09:53 I mean this just means sellers are still not gonna be well. I'll say to this time brought up a good point And the whole conversation for the last handful of months what I've seen on the Wall Street Journal a lot of these papers and on Twitter Is are we preparing for soft landing or hard landing in the economy? So you tell me what you guys think, everyone out there watching PBD podcast. I would argue that if you look at the numbers where we were pre-COVID to where they are today, unemployment rate, right around 3.5% pre-COVID, that's right where we are now, inflation, pre-COVID, what, 1.5% to, you know, breaking news, if you didn't know,

Starting point is 00:10:28 we're closer to 3% inflation. If you kind of, what do they do for the consumer price index? They basically remove certain cost of food and goods and energy costs. So we're at 3%, we were at what, 8% a year ago. So whatever drone pals doing seems to be working. And stock market last but not least I think the Dow just hit the 355. I mean I remember in 2020 when it crashed it came back I did an episode on

Starting point is 00:10:56 Saw's cast then that we hit 30 K. Oh my god. Here we go. Here we go. I remember that. So thanks Tom You were my one thumb up at that one point. Appreciate that. But I would argue, tell me if I'm wrong, that we're kind of near where we were pre-COVID. I concur with everything that you guys said. Thank you guys. Well, yeah.

Starting point is 00:11:17 Actually, unemployment shows. Just does bi-dynamic skit credit. No, I think powell-nomac skit credit. I honestly don't see. I was a quick shout out to Joe Biden. I had to think power nomics get credit. I don't honestly don't see. I was a quick shout out to Joe Biden had to do it because I mean, up sleeping. Here's what I will say. Let's be honest. He's going to take credit whether he's a president or not. Are you kidding me? He has to. Yes. What can the president do? The president has two things. The power of the executive order and the ability to influence the treasury and IRS on tax policy.

Starting point is 00:11:45 Has Biden done anything on tax policy? No. Has he done anything with like executive order except for the emergency stimulus checks that went out to all of Americans on COVID? Not really. What has happened, as I think the economy is a little more resilient

Starting point is 00:12:00 than we all end me, you know, thought and Powell has gotten things to cool, even know it has stalled the housing sector. Well, the average of president is going to take crap. Of course, Trump took credit for the lowest unemployment for the highest stock market. As you should, the average American couldn't pick Jerome Powell out of a lineup. Fuck, the average American couldn't have picked Joe Biden out of a lineup. Hell, Joe Biden couldn't pick himself out of a lineup at this point.

Starting point is 00:12:23 But the point is that, because she's's run if you're running for president. There is. Yeah. 2024, your Joe Biden and the economy sustains at this rate or even improves in the next six, 12 months. Of course, you're going to run on that and say we're back to where we were pre-COVID, elect my old ass for another term and we'll keep this party going. Speaking of pre-COVID, then I'll defer back to Pat to keep going through our stories

Starting point is 00:12:44 here. I'm going to deep dive right now on return to work who's who's working and we'll keep this party going. Speaking of pre-COVID, and then I'll defer back to Pat to keep going through our stories here, I'm going to deep dive right now on return to work, who's working, who's not, and I'm going to have that on the BizDoc podcast on Monday, 11, 30 AM, but I did see this. There are more moms working now than there were pre-COVID, a percent of total moms in America.

Starting point is 00:13:01 There are more minority women working now as total percent, than there were pre-COVID. And the survey is all saying the reason is inflation has pushed them more of those back to work. So we're talking about the lower part of the middle class and core middle class. More of those people are going back to work

Starting point is 00:13:21 in response to inflation right now. So within the victory on unemployment, there's also some pinch families that work in heart. Old-school women working or new school women who are like transitioning because I got to get that right. Well, you know Joe Biden's legacy is going to be the man put all the women to work. That's right. That's right. Listen, that's right.

Starting point is 00:13:42 Before I go into this, by the way, just let me give you a quick shout out. Since you went there in the reference, what did the infamous philosopher RuPaul say about work? You better work. You better work. You better work. So, you know, you know, he says, you know, he's not. And it was, I want to talk about what happened here with UPS, Teamsters, do you know what the minimum wage is now?

Starting point is 00:14:00 What the average pay is for a full-time employee at UPS? I actually want you to guess and comment below what you average pay is for a full-time employee at UPS. I actually want you to guess and comment below what you think it is per hour. Don't say it. I want you to think what a full-time employee at UPS average. This is what the debate was the strike they had and they just broke on your path. You said, no, per hour. What do you think they can pay per hour? Matter of fact, you can say per year. Okay. Per year and then I'll hear you for an hour. Let me go into it. I'm going to it first. So let me go to the sponsor. So our sponsor today is American Hartford Gold. Again, with everything we're talking about, the results show. This is very important, guys. Earlier this month, the Bank for International Settlement released its 2022 survey on Central Bank digital

What do you think is the average Salary now for full-time employee time if you read the article don't sit because I know you cheated I saw what you were doing you're the guy that wants to school your professional guy You got an MBA he went Far as guy in the room has to you guys I'm talking to the two new guys. Okay, what do you think is the average pay for a full-time employee?

Starting point is 00:16:26 Now, at UPS, don't say anything Tom. What do you think? UPS. UPS. Hey, Vinnie, what can Brown do for you? Give me the answer. 55,000. I'll give it a full-time job, right?

Starting point is 00:16:35 Yeah, I'll give it a full-time job. I'm assuming close people want to follow. Full-time. Not minimum wage. Average. Full-time. The keyword is average salary for a full-time employee. You said 55? Well, I'm a huge fan of the prices, right? I'm going 55- time. 55? You said 55?

Starting point is 00:16:45 Well, I'm a huge fan of the prices, right? I'm going 55, one. 55, okay. Well, first of all, you win. That was not a hard bet. Adam, you could do. But I'm gonna tell you what it is. Yes.

Starting point is 00:16:54 Okay, it's, oh my god, I can't believe this is it. Way higher. Okay, what is the minimum wage right now? Federal and America. What's the minimum wage in America? Seven bucks or something. Seven, twenty. Okay, some states want to take you to 15, okay.

Starting point is 00:17:07 All right, so full time is 49 bucks an hour. That's a hundred and a year. What? Guys, 400 grand a year. That's exactly what it is. The average full time in Proin now at UPS gets paid six figure salary. What?

Starting point is 00:17:22 That's the many, let's get out of here. Let me go read this to you. What go read this. I'm gonna read this dog Hang on UPS teamsters reach labor deal to avoid strike Okay, UPS and teamster union reach a preliminary deal, $30 billion, covering 340,000 employees to avoid a strike, existing part-time employees received a raise to at least $21 an hour.

Starting point is 00:17:56 Part-time. Vinnie, part-time is getting paid $21 an hour, while full-time employees were average, 49 bucks an hour. Current workers get an additional 275 raise an hour per year and an additional 750 hour over five-year contract which means if you've been over five years, the contract over five years, you're getting paid 57 bucks an hour is what you're getting paid. The deal includes ending mandatory over time for drivers days off,

Starting point is 00:18:25 and needs worker ratification and contrast. FedEx pilots rejected a tentative labor deal with 57% voting against it. I'm sorry that I'm on my phone because I'm just getting texts from Delhi and everybody in production. They all just walked out and all of them in UPS. Everybody just quit.

Starting point is 00:18:40 Yeah. So what is the most shocking thing about this? You thought the number would be way lower. You thought that they don't deserve this amount. What is it that shocked you? I mean, you were shocked. I was. Yeah. 55,000. So what were you shocked about? Yeah. I'm shocked by the number. Yes. I don't know how much they have to pay you, Vinnie, to wear the brown shorts and dry the truck with no door and a flimsy seatbelt. It's exactly 12.

Starting point is 00:19:02 Guys, can we have a serious conversation? It's exactly two times what you guessed. Okay, you said 55, it's $101,000. Okay, give or take a... That's average as that factor in CEO, is that factor in... No, that's not. Full-time employees, it's just 49 bucks an hour.

Starting point is 00:19:19 That's great. That's insane for this to take place. Okay, so now, you say that's great. Guess what it means. Okay, so now you say that's great. Guess what it means. Okay, yes, it's great. By the way, we can make that $490 an hour. What does it cost to ship something? Yes.

Starting point is 00:19:32 Okay, that's what the money comes to. The consumer is gonna have to pay more. You are paying the raise. They're not paying the raise, you're paying the raise. So to us, if the consumer, like, what is it cost right now, Rob, go and see what it costs to ship a regular item just go prices at UPS to ship anything Okay, prices at UPS to ship anything. Let's just see what it comes up. Okay zoom in all right, so Yeah, zoom in if you okay right there. So check this out one pound is eight dollars and 44 cents

Starting point is 00:20:00 Okay, two to four business days two pounds nine ninety six. Okay, guess what? Now what if they say, well, we want it to go to $490 an hour, we can make that happen. We just got to make it $88 a pound. So this idea of, oh, day one, hey consumer, you lost. Yeah. Okay, because it's coming to you and Tom. Tom is a very interesting point as well. For some of you guys that purchased Amazon, what's going to happen to my Amazon, Tom? What do we think is going to happen to Amazon Prime when the renewal comes to your credit card? I bet it's going to be up $6, $8, $10. It's got to. How can it not? They have to collect that money from somewhere. It's coming from somewhere. Now, the difference is the difference is, the

Starting point is 00:20:41 difference is, the difference is, the difference is, the difference is Maybe business will go at a loss next year. But the difference is, Bezos has fought tooth and nails to avoid union as much as he can, because he knows what's gonna happen here. I did a poll, you know that they robbed, can you pull up Twitter and go to my Twitter account and you'll see the part where I pulled a union, is union a net positive to society or a net negative to society?

Starting point is 00:21:07 I think around 18,000 people voted and here's what the results were. It should be the next one. Zoom in right there, yeah, 17,800 voted. Do you feel unions are a net negative, net positive or net negative to economy? Look at that. Two to one. 32% said positive. 67.8% said it's a net negative.

Starting point is 00:21:26 So that's the part about union when they come in. Here's the part. So in UPS, if you were to compare UPS strike versus Hollywood strike, which one they have to cave. I think it's UPS. They have to. You have to cave. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:21:42 If 340,000 people go on strike shipments are not coming in. By the way, you know who the number one parcel company in America is right now? You don't know who the number one is? No, it's UPS. You really? If UPS missed this mark, that $30 billion in valuation goes to hold it from place.

Starting point is 00:21:57 Which means UPS is sitting there saying, guys, we better freaking do something. Yes, what Hollywood is saying, fine. We got plenty of old movies. We got plenty of stuff. Don't do it. Yes, what Hollywood is saying, fine, we got plenty of old movies. We got plenty of stuff. Don't do it. It's okay. There's still pain in a monthly service. While you're not making any new movies, any shows, are you still paying Netflix? Are you still paying Netflix? Are you still paying Netflix? Are you still paying Netflix? Are you still? You have to. 100%. So the media companies on strike, they're not getting affected, but UPS had to negotiate. The union had to negotiate versus Hollywood,

Starting point is 00:22:25 Bob Eiger's like, look, it's gonna cost a lot of people their house, hey, listen, you mother fucker, you listen, you have 27 million dollars, you wanna lose house, there's three ways you can lose your house. Ron Pearl, yeah. Ron Pearl, you're right. So when you think about that part, you just have to know that strike is gonna be very different

Starting point is 00:22:44 for these guys than the other guys, but 49 bucks an hour. Interesting. Well, and then if there's guys, you know, that we have the whole conversation about whether college is worth it or not, you know, my whole thing is typically degrees pay fee, skills pay the bills.

Starting point is 00:22:57 Look, there's a lot of people coming out of debt with a couple hundred grand in college loans. Meanwhile, you're just a dude, we're driving a truck with short shorts, with your booty shorts doing your thing, open window, making a hundred. Yeah, dude, actually, I know you do. Sign me up.

Starting point is 00:23:14 What's the view? Is that the truck? Just the truck. Yeah. All right, let's go to the next store. 400. Let's go to the next store. All right.

Starting point is 00:23:23 So next one and one in five Americans say, they will never be able to retire. This is a daily mail story. Let's see what's happening here. We just went from a positive news of working at UPS, some bad news around the corner, one in five in retire. And so, pole by Axios and IPSOS reveals that one in five Americans, approximately 20%,

Starting point is 00:23:43 approximately 20%, one in five is 20% fear They will never be able to retire among them 70% cited financial concerns as the main reason for their uncertainty economic factors Beyond their control let around 44% of respondents under 55 to change their retirement plans 44% under 55 to change their retirement plans under 55 to change their retirement plans. Conservably, conversely, only 36% of those over 55 were confident about retiring. This is a pretty bad number right here. Approximately 37% of non-retire is expressed out

Starting point is 00:24:14 that social security would cover more than a quarter of their retirement expenses, reports indicate that Americans are not saving enough for retirement with the average balance and 401K accounts decreasing to 112,022, down 20% down from previous year. So Adam, you see this story, what do you think?

Starting point is 00:24:34 Well, obviously the 401Ks are up this year. I think they S&P's up what, 16, 17%, so that number's back up. But actually would say that this, article is dead wrong. You're saying that 20% fear they're not going to have enough money to retire and not be able to retire. I would actually say it's closer to 50%. I would actually say that this number is very low. So, news flash, only 50% of Americans actually invest. Okay, so if you're going to retire, so what's associated with retirement? Well, a retirement account.

Starting point is 00:25:06 So what's a retirement account? 401k, a Roth IRA, I haven't telling Vinny for a year and a half to get a Roth IRA, hopefully, they listened up. I bought gold. Okay, good. Shout out to Hartford Gold. Hartford Gold, baby. Yeah, that's not gonna, that's not gonna, that's not gonna retire. But whatever, keep going. So only 50% of Americans actually have investments. You can't save your way to retirement. You actually need to invest. So there's something called the Three Legons tool I've talked about this before.

Starting point is 00:25:31 Three Legons tool of retirement. Now typically it's been a pension where I think the pension numbers in 1930, 35% of Americans had a pension. Now it's closer to like 15%. I don't know that many people have pension, teachers, cops, firefighters, NBA players. You're getting a pension, now it's closer to like 15%. I don't know that many people have pension, teachers, cops, firefighters, NBA players, you're getting a pension.

Starting point is 00:25:49 Then retirement plans, right? For one case, Roth IRA is only 50% of Americans actually have investments. And then the last thing is your personal savings. We all know how people just can't save that money. So it is a major issue in America. I remember when 2016, when Bernie was running and he's on all the shows, and I'll do my best Bernie impression,

Starting point is 00:26:10 you'll probably do a better time. Do you understand that 50% of baby boomers don't have any money for retirement? And that's what they're worried about. They're worried about their health care costs. They'll bill you to ask them, they'll bill you to ask them better, that. And I was like, oh shit, he's absolutely right.

Starting point is 00:26:24 50% of Americans have no money for retirement. Don't say million anymore. Yeah, it's just the ability to... I'm a little bit... I'm a little bit more than he talks. That's what it is. Here's the deal. You know, Bernie Sanders was absolutely right.

Starting point is 00:26:35 50% of Americans do not have enough money, safe to retirement. They should be concerned. I think this article is dead wrong. I think they're fucking missed at Mark here. And the average number, when it comes to retirement, here's the actual numbers. You're good, Pat. When you got a limp, this mic went limp. Yeah, he didn't say for retirement.

Starting point is 00:26:53 So the average American has about 135K saved for retirement. The average American, right? But, you know, a 40-year-old, if he has 100 grand, that's right. He's got 25 more years to figure it out. But the boomers were 65 plus, right? But, you know, a 40 year old, if he has 100 grand, that's right. He's got 25 more years to figure it out. But the boomers, who are 65 plus, right? Their average is 225 grand. Okay, cool, 225 grand. Do you know what they say?

Starting point is 00:27:15 The average American should have in retirement, minimum, $2 million. So you're only $1.8 million off, Carl. So it's incumbent on you to figure out your financial situation because 225 in retirement will last you a couple of years because Americans are living longer. Last point, Social Security was never meant to be a retirement plan. The average Social Security check is what? Two grand of them.

Starting point is 00:27:38 Good luck getting these people to change things. And they thought the average life expectancy was 62 and a half exactly. It thought you'd live in three, four years. Boom, thanks FDR, Social Security. Boom, the reality is, you know, you're living to your 80, 90. Your first year Social Security came out only 5,000 people used it.

Starting point is 00:27:55 Okay, now there's how many, then now there's, there's gonna be 80 million people on it. That's 80 million baby boomers. So the numbers don't add up and it's the millennials and the gen Xers, Gen Zers that are paying into it. So the numbers don't add up and it's the millennials and the gen Xers, the gen Zers that are paying into it. So the numbers are all wonky. So that's why it's incumbent on you to figure your shit out and save that money.

Starting point is 00:28:11 In other words, somebody with brass in politics needs to actually get out there and say, guys, if you want to have the future, look bright for your next generation, your kids, your grandkids, we have to do something with social security and cut it. And we have to do something with Medicare and Medicaid because it's costing us a lot of money. By the way, somebody responded here and this guy commented, I want to give you a quick shout out here with the comment.

Starting point is 00:28:34 Chef, it's Chef Nick Nero. He says, I work for UPS drivers and loaders. They kill themselves daily in the heat. A humidity cold snow. the money is well earned. Well Nick. I hate to say to you buddy in a military They literally kill themselves and they get paid nothing So this idea about you're working in the heat and you're killing yourself It just means how soft everybody has gotten now if they're gonna pay you the money They're gonna pay the consumers gonna be taxed for it So if we want to start paying this kind of money a nobody if they're gonna pay you the money, they're gonna pay the consumer's gonna be taxed for it.

Starting point is 00:29:05 So if we wanna start paying this kind of money, a nobody, if you're gonna say this, cops get killed, they should start getting paid $300,000 per year. Military guys, go give you freedom, they should be getting paid $200,000, you're $150,000 a year. It's a ludicrous argument, but if you got your money, you got your money.

Starting point is 00:29:23 I'm not sitting you telling you anything, they didn't get your money. All I'm saying to're telling you anything that you didn't get your money. All I'm saying to you is the consumers are getting the tax. Not you, we're gonna have to pay the price for that. Let me get to the next story. Americans expect to inherit $700,000. In the next decade is what they expect to inherit.

Starting point is 00:29:38 So here we go. The great wealth transfer will see baby boomers pass down $53 trillion by 2045 with adults expecting an average of $700,000 as a report per New York live concerns arise as only 21% of millennials and 18% of Gen Z feel very comfortable handling the funds with Suzanne Schmidt from New York live stating that they may be more risk averse due to economic changes they witness in their formative years among those anticipating and inheritance in the next decade, 58% expect cash, 43% anticipate property, 28% look forward to stock and

Starting point is 00:30:19 bonds while 24% brace for life insurance proceeds. In other words, they're waiting for their parents to die. Over half worry about inflation impacting their funds and 37% plan to use the windfall to pay off the debt while 35% intent to supplement their retirement savings and 26% plan to pass it down themselves. I think after four stats you lost people but we get the point. So, what's your thoughts on this story here? Well, listen, a very wise man once said, look, 150 million bucks ain't what he used to be. Okay. I know. I know. I know.

Starting point is 00:30:53 It's not what he used to be. So with that being said, 700 grand, 700 grand, ain't what it used to be. Inflation, that's a half a million. So, a lot of Americans feel like they're going at it alone with their financial situation. We just talked about the retirement plan and not people understanding the money situation. I mean, look, 700 grand is great. It's amazing. If you get that, I'll give your game plan in a second,

Starting point is 00:31:18 but it's no secret that I want 70% of lottery winners that make, that win a hundred million dollars plus. Go broke. Go broke and the first five 10 years Okay, so 700 grand you want to you want to go through 700 grand, but he come out with me for a weekend itself Yeah, bro. Let me say something to that look I would love to give parents a grade for what they passed down to their kids, okay? Mm-hmm I give my parents an A,

Starting point is 00:31:45 even though they gave me not a nickel. My mom and that boat said, when we die, you ain't getting nothing, okay? But guess what they gave me? They brought me to America. That to me is all the money in the world, all the opportunities, everything, that is a way of what you gave to your kids.

Starting point is 00:32:02 My parents gave me values and principles. Now, if you're born here and you're raised here and your grandfather brought you, they've given their inheritance to you. What are you now doing to give to your kids that was born here? I do feel we need to give grades to parents of what they give their kids.

Starting point is 00:32:25 Okay? One lowest level grade C is a what? You give them a place to live, you give them food, you send them to public school, great. That's a C. Great. That's average. B. If the kids, you're helping with the college education, you do all of that stuff and you pay for their college and they go and they do this and they do that Okay, great. That's maybe a B Then if you provide them all shelter and you do your best for you and your husband you and your wife to stay together It's not easy half marriages end up out of divorce, but you do your best and You help them win a college and when you die They get it start to buy down payment on a house Maybe giving 50,000 dollars down payment on a house or 100, to buy down payment on the house, maybe giving $50,000 down payment on the house,

Starting point is 00:33:07 or $100,000 down payment on the business or house. And then when you die, they get $700,000, I have to tell you, I actually plot these baby boomers that are giving their kids $700,000. I think, I hope, that tradition continues. Of course, we can say $700,000 isn't anything today. What I don't want to do is, you know how sometimes no matter what you do for somebody, they'll always say, that's it, that's it,

Starting point is 00:33:31 that's it, you know that whole idea, like, so all you're gonna do for me. Like, I remember one time we went, we'll give people, we'll have a meeting, we'll do this guy's gonna be so excited to give this guy a raise, his attitude's gonna be freaking awesome, because you wanna give you guys a raise. And I'm like, that's all you're giving me a 20% raise,

Starting point is 00:33:47 a 10% raise. I'm like, do you remember this? Like, you know what? Honestly, forget it. It's off the table, bro. Don't worry about it. Go look for another place. We're okay.

Starting point is 00:33:55 We're moving forward. But the more they say then, no problem. Go. No, they say, they want to you. They say, this is not the place for you. Go elsewhere. They'll probably go to UPS. The story's very, I'm just telling you,

Starting point is 00:34:05 we've been on both sides, we'll be screwed on them. They've screwed on them. All I'm saying to you is, I want to recognize good behavior. The $700,000 is good behavior. What I'm concerned about, here's my concern. I'm concerned the next generation's gonna be worse than boomers. I'm concerned the next generation is not gonna leave

Starting point is 00:34:24 anything for their kids. Of course, gonna be something, but not. I'm concerned the next generation is not gonna leave anything for their kids. Of course, it's gonna be something, but not as much as these guys are, because no one's talking about that. There has to be conversations about what are you leaving your kids behind when you're done? This whole notion about everything's about you, you, you, you, me, me, me, me, me, what are you leaving them?

Starting point is 00:34:41 This is why I love when I read Kennedy's book and I read Bush's book, a agree or disagree with these families, they've done well for their families. Maybe you don't agree with what they've done for America, maybe you don't agree with what they've done for, you know, the world. Let me tell you, they've done a lot for themselves, okay?

Starting point is 00:34:59 And one of the traditions they have is your job, excuse me, your job is when you get married, make your money, make sure your wife is scored away retirement, make sure your kids are scored away with what they want to do with school and a couple things in the future, make sure your scored away would retirement, then figure out a way to go back and give to public service. Choose to make a hundred million, 50 million, 5 million, 10 million, 20 million, 300 million. You're George Bush, go into Texas Rangers, do whatever you wanna do. But I think we need to talk about that more and more and more.

Starting point is 00:35:30 If you wanna get an A, I think an A to me, is good values, good principles, home standards, expectation, after school programs, drop in them off driving. That's a lot of work, man. Dylan goes to three different sports every day. Tiko Dylan, every day they're in jujitsu, then they go off, then they're going to swimming,

Starting point is 00:35:46 then they're going to soccer, then he's going to baseball, then they're going to tennis. I mean, you know how many people are driving these guys? That's a lot of work. So I think parents have to give themselves a grade to say, babe, if husband and wife are talking to each other tonight, have a conversation with your wife, have a conversation with your husband, babe,

Starting point is 00:36:03 what kind of a grade do we want to give ourselves as parents when we're no longer here? Is it a C, is it a B or an A? Let's figure this thing out. I think we need to raise our standard. So I think this is a good sum with the $700,000. Quick response to that. I do agree, 700 grand would be an amazing number.

Starting point is 00:36:19 I was being sarcastic when 150 grand wasn't one of us. Yes, I agree. What I will say, you're absolutely right. I think the numbers actually break down to, well, it's 15% of Americans expect to receive an inheritance the next 10 years. That's awesome. 70% of it is from parents, and 25% of it is from their spouse.

Starting point is 00:36:37 So the large majority, you're absolutely right, Pat. It is from the parents. And I absolutely, like, one of my favorite things that I love being here with Pat and value-tainment, it is just reaffirmed everything you said in the first place. You gave your parents an A, why? Because they just brought you to America

Starting point is 00:36:53 with good values and principles. Zero dollars. Your dad worked at a 99 cent store. But that to you is priceless. And this is kind of nothing to do with the financial component, but it does have to do with the fact that you're living in America opponent. It sickens me to see the stats out there of Gen Z

Starting point is 00:37:12 more than half are not proud to be American or believe in socialism or are basically disgusted with being in America. I think we have that story, Rob. And to me, it's just so sad and it's indicative of where we're at and how divisive we are these days. You know, I dated a girl for many years who was from London, from the UK,

Starting point is 00:37:34 and I would go over there every summer with her and I was the American guy. Oh, the Americans here, and I was like, you fucking know it, buddy. John Wayne in the house, buddy. With your red coat ass, like, I'm so proud to be American, okay? And this isn't a Republic thing, a Democratic thing, it's just an American thing.

Starting point is 00:37:51 And to the young people watching, they don't love America. Listen, nobody's forcing you to stay here. Yeah. Okay, if you don't like your job, leave. Yeah, but get a different job. Yeah. Okay, if you don't like the city you live in, leave.

Starting point is 00:38:03 Yeah. You don't like the country you live in, get the fuck out. Yeah, but. If you don't like the city you live in, leave. You don't like the country you live in. Get the fuck out. Yeah, but Adam, good luck trying to go to another country. You think that other country is just like, yeah, come in, try to go to Canada or somewhere. They don't want you. They don't want your ass there.

Starting point is 00:38:16 We're gonna talk shit about that. To that point is like, one of these people go to a different country, go to the Iran. Yeah, go to the Democratic Republic of Congo. Yeah, go to South Africa. Go to, and then come back here and be like, yeah, I was wrong about that, buddy. I'm happy to be here in my house in America. Boy, we went on a big ol' loop there.

Starting point is 00:38:34 Before you do, I just want to say this, Rob. Can you guys, just, I'm curious, how, if you're comfortable, what amount of money do you believe your parents are leaving you behind when the day comes that they're no longer here? Can you please put that in the comment section? Somebody said, run a poll, money is power. I'd be curious to know what some of you guys are going to say. Go ahead Tom. I am saying that Adam and Vinnie took a big old loop there to the unappreciative people and I take that right back to the parents. Part of the other grade you can give your parents is what do they teach

Starting point is 00:39:01 you about appreciating the place that you're living in the opportunity you have? You say you give your parents an A because they brought you to the United States. I tell my girls all the time. I said, look, this isn't perfect. There's a lot of debate out there. There's a lot of things going on. There's things going on in your school. We're going to go talk to school board. We're going to be civil. We're going to do it because that's how we do it in America. We meet in the public square. We vote or we go into rooms and we say debate things and we try to do it civilly. Some of those don't go well. They end up on the news, people screaming at each other at school board meetings.

Starting point is 00:39:28 But you know what? All the stuff that's happened here, this is still the best place in the world to be. This is still the best soil, the plant you're seed. This is still what it's all about. And that's not a leadus, that's not prejudice girls, has just what freedom, liberty, free enterprise, and capitalism as a foundation for tomorrow does. And I think when parents don't give a little of that to their kids about how good you have it here, regardless of how many dollars you're gonna be able to leave them, I think that loses something.

Starting point is 00:39:57 Because the people you're talking about, I agree, Adam, I don't use the phrase, but I'll abbreviate it, you know, GTF-O, you know? Yeah. It's a good buy. But why are some of those kids having that thing? I think that there's an obligation to parents and maybe I'll still tell that story too.

Starting point is 00:40:14 What's coming up and what are people saying? They popping in? Let me tell you what they said. So most people, Rob, would you agree? Most people are zero. And 90% put zero. One person put 50K, one person put five million, I saw one two 50,

Starting point is 00:40:28 I saw one 500,000, I saw one 1.1 million, I saw one 1.2 million and real estate 400,000 on life insurance, 150K, 400K, 200,000, and 250, 600,000. This is why for some that don't have money, the easiest way to leave money behind to your family is life insurance. This is why we sold nearly a half,

Starting point is 00:40:45 500,000 life insurance policies the last 13 years. And counting. Yeah, and counting, if you can't afford to do it, get them a life insurance policy. Get something to leave me onto your family. It's such a, one of the biggest backbreakers of a family. When siblings are left is when parents die and siblings fight on who pays the money.

Starting point is 00:41:04 And the poorest sibling always blames the richest siblings and you have the money you pay for it and then there's a division between what do you call it? That's the last thing parents want. So if you want your kids to be united and you don't want them to divide, get an insurance policy. Protect a family, but it's interesting how most people right now, 90% their answer was zero nothing's been left behind

Starting point is 00:41:25 Wow, that's what that's what is being left behind for them or that's what they They're saying my mom and dad are leaving me No zero is what yeah that checks out because 15% of Americans expect an inheritance So you know scary thought by the way because inheritance is a very very big Aspect of what you do don't get me wrong. I don't start with nothing. There's different mindsets to it. But what if you could? What if you could do it?

Starting point is 00:41:49 What if we can do it? Now, rather than looking back and saying, well, that's the reason why I'm not winning. No, you're just bitching and whining and you're acting like a victim. I don't have anything. And I still want to figure it out a way to win. We're still grateful we're happy.

Starting point is 00:42:01 All I'm saying is, why don't we start with us? What can we do about it? Anyway, I absolutely don't think it absolutely agree about the life insurance component. If I could just give you 30 cents a good. If you're a young dad out there, okay, I'm speaking to the father's right now. Now I'm not a kid, I'm not a father. I plan on being one soon.

Starting point is 00:42:18 If you don't have a life insurance for your young kids, if you're a 35 year old guy, 40 year old guy, 45 year old guy, you got two kids, you're working. You think I'm healthy, all good? You know, nothing's gonna happen to me. You know what they say? Shit happens. God forbid, a term life insurance policy,

Starting point is 00:42:33 by the way, I don't sell life insurance. You know what I do with businesses and I'm selling you anything. You don't sell life insurance. If a term life insurance is less than a cup of coffee a day, whatever they say, go get a $100,000 policy. Go get a half a million dollar policy. Go to a million dollar policy.

Starting point is 00:42:47 God forbid your kids will be taken care of. And then by the time they're 21, you don't have to do anything. Let's go to the next story. Let's go to the next story. Let's go to the next story. Okay, so next story I wanna go into what's going on with mortgage demand drops.

Starting point is 00:43:02 Okay, we have that, we covered that already, we covered that already. Okay, so have that, we covered that already, we covered that already. Okay, so check this one out. Journalists witnessed witnessed three thefts in 30 minutes during segment at the most robbed wall greens in US, okay? That's pretty wild when you think about this stuff here, okay? Rob, if you can pull up the clip, the video, okay?

Starting point is 00:43:21 And what happens? I don't know if you have the clip or not. If you do, pull it up while I'm reading this. CNN journalist, Kyongla, witnessed three thefts and 30 minutes at the most robbed Walgreens in the US while reporting on the store's anti-theft tactics. The Richmond neighborhood store in San Francisco has the highest theft rate amongst, among nearly 9,000 Walgreens locations in the country, the store experiences over a dozen thefts a day, leading employees to use certain chains to secure freezer sections.

Starting point is 00:43:52 However, due to negative messaging, the chains were later removed. San Francisco Bay Area ranks as the second-hearted hit metropolitan area by theft according to National Retail, Federation's 2022 Retail Security Survey. Walgreens has closed five stores in the region due to theft. And other chains like Target, Whole Foods, North from CVS and Amazon have either left downtown San Francisco or planned to do so. Go ahead and play this clip. Eat to frozen food to try to combat theft.

Starting point is 00:44:22 Our young law visited one Walgreens. That's hit by shop lifters more than a dozen times a day. It happened three times while she was inside. Richie Greenberg walked into a San Francisco Walgreens when he saw in the frozen food. Like Jesus. This. Chains, heavy chains that went from padlock to padlock on both sides of the doors to get some frozen pizza

Starting point is 00:44:48 Bizarre something I'd never seen before this is just more icing on the cake Telling us that ramp and crime is has become a regular part of life So typical that in the 30 minutes we were at this wall grains So typical that in the 30 minutes we were at this wall, Greens. Yeah, they just saw something right there. He's humming. Yeah, he just saw no face, no case. I can't. Did that guy pay? No, and they don't get, they can't stop them. They can't stop them.

Starting point is 00:45:19 The Richmond neighborhood store with tiles of products like mustard, locks behind plexiglass, has the highest theft rate of all. They're nearly nine thousand dollars. Can you pull up the other video that the lady in the freeways going around shooting people naked in the middle of the freeway? Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, watch it. This is even more insane. Look at this.

Starting point is 00:45:44 That lady's naked. She's got a gun and she's just shooting. It's my ex. She shouldn't have broke up. She's shooting at people. I would have had to know how you go. And then she runs out of bullets. This guy gets scared recording her.

Starting point is 00:45:57 So he puts the camera down and then he's like, okay, she's not looking. Let me record. And then boom, she runs out of bullets. Look at the cars are going to the laps. I'm sorry. If someone went around, let me record. And then boom, she runs out of bullets. And you know what's crazy? Look at the cars are going to the left. If someone would have ran over, she's not what I got arrested. Yeah, exactly. No, I'm sorry.

Starting point is 00:46:11 If she's firing at people, no, but I would have flipped that chick 50 feet in here. That's my point. And then you would have got arrested. No, if she's got a gun, and she's firing on people, yes, you're running right through her. Yeah, I would have, I'm her. I would it I'm sorry

Starting point is 00:46:25 I would I would have disarmed her for the safety of the other motorists, but all it takes is what all it takes I'm not trying to you're in San Francisco. They're gonna say they're gonna blame you You're gonna be a man slaughter. You're gonna be racist. Well governor Newsom put me on trial Yeah, but yeah, I mean try something about it. What's more important? That's one thing about it. You know what lady has rights. She should be able to walk around naked and shoot women on. That lady is in the midst of a mental health crisis. I'm not gonna run her down and kill her. I'm gonna sit there and I'm gonna see if I can knock her down.

Starting point is 00:46:56 No, that's a good idea. That's a good idea. No, no, let's say, because first of all, Tom, this is what happens when you defund the police, when you tell the people that work there, you guys can't even try to stop them. When a thousand dollars or below isn't even a, nobody gives a shit.

Starting point is 00:47:11 No, it's not. Hold on, there's zero security there. It's a catch and release. You can't, yeah, you can't, you can't, and interfere with this because you're gonna get in trouble because they're gonna bring up race, they're gonna bring up a bunch of bullshit. This is the epitome of what California is going to shit,

Starting point is 00:47:27 and guess what, Gavin Newsom is gonna be the front runner, and he's gonna run on, what do you mean? I have the richest state, we're killing it. It's a shit hole, and I do like, the fact that they're letting that happen in America, dude, there's chains, there's locks on face. I'm gonna set you up here. Yeah, hold on Tom.

Starting point is 00:47:43 Vinnie, you don't know anything about California. You didn't live there for 15 years. Oh, you lived there for 15 years? Oh, yeah, I used to. I used to. So you have experience in this place. Yeah, yeah. Oh, I had no idea.

Starting point is 00:47:54 What's it like there? It's actually, what's that? It's a shithole. Oh, okay. I linked up with a guy named Patrick with David. He's half a seer. By the way, have you ever lived in California? Have you ever lived in California?

Starting point is 00:48:04 Oh, 24 years. okay, got you. All right, so. How long were you there? Oh, Tom. I was born there. Oh, yeah, I got it. I'm a Florida man. I'm a Florida man, so.

Starting point is 00:48:12 I don't know about this, so collectively, this is 50 years of California right here. And thing about this, Pat, you see that, you see the crime, you see the walking in the street with a gun, you see what they're trying to put into the schools, in your right mind, why the, like, especially liberals and I have cousins that are just like, they love nothing, they can't admit it.

Starting point is 00:48:31 But look at what the hell is going on in California, bro. Look at what's happening. Then he think about it. You can ski and surf on the same day. Yeah, you're right. So there you go. And you know, that's worth homelessness and murder. Let me, let me, let me transition.

Starting point is 00:48:45 Let me transition this story. There's a part of this guys. This is actually a serious story. I understand we're having fun with this. And as ladies naked running around thinking she's at a, you know, freeway strip club. She's, she's, she's, she's got issues. For a person to walk around naked with a gun,

Starting point is 00:48:59 you got issues to do something like that. Fine, let's set that aside. For people to be afraid to do the natural thing, the natural thing should be shoot her down or call the cops, and even if you call the cops, what's the first thing you're gonna tell yourself? They're not gonna get here on time, but people could get killed by the time

Starting point is 00:49:16 somebody gets here. So I'm so scared to actually follow the law that it's better off for me to sit aside, sit on the sidelines, but while we're talking about all of this stuff on what's going on there, there's a story here about California, where's the story about California in 2016?

Starting point is 00:49:32 What page is that on there it is? Okay, so page 16, if you go to it, people are wondering, I tweeted this yesterday about Nusom, people are wondering this. So California, where's the story? Is it 15 or 16 Rob? 15, I'm at California Exit. So there you go.

Starting point is 00:49:49 Amit California Exit, a state population projected to be the same in 2060 as it is today. Okay? California's population projected to stay the same stagnant till 2060. Guys, that's 37 years. Would estimates, 37 years or 37 years, with estimates showing 39.51 million people slightly over then 2020 figures 39.52 million The state's population decline is attributed to an ongoing exodus of residents Would over a half a million people leave them between January 2020 and July 2022 and more considering leaving due to the factors of high taxes, cost, the living and social issues, the decline in population could have

Starting point is 00:50:27 significant impact on California's tax bases, tax base and political representation with a budget deficit of nearly 32 billion dollars reported in 2023 and a loss of a house seat in 2021. Now watch this. You're seeing this at Walgreens, the worst in America out of how many Walgreens was at 9,000 at Richmond San Francisco. We're number one. You're seeing the streets freeway ladies walk around with guns. You're seeing what's going on here with the state of California

Starting point is 00:50:50 saying population's gonna stay the same. And then, and then, they're wondering why parents are sick of noosam. Then there's this story, to make you look California school board caves and approves controversial LGBTQ curriculum after threats of one and a half million dollar fine from who yours truly the governor Newsom let me read this to you friendly people

Starting point is 00:51:14 of California the conservative the conservative the conservative to make you a valley unified school districts board and Riverside County California initially rejected a social studies curriculum for great one through five that included discussions about the life of Harvey milk I don't know if you've seen the images what this Harvey milk guy did what he's all about underage boys, too Yeah, it was his His Gay elected official in California due to concerns about his aligned a legit inappropriate behavior around teenagers, Governor Gavin Newsom intervened,

Starting point is 00:51:46 and threatened the school board with a one and a half million dollar fine for not adhering to a 2011 California law that mandates, teaching about LGBTQ historical figures in school, fearing that financial burden of a lawsuit and the school's board reversed its decision and unanimously approved, the use of the textbook social studies alive with more,

Starting point is 00:52:03 with some modifications to ensure age-appropriate content. Okay, so here's what, what does this mean? Here's what this means. Let me tell you what this means. You know to all the parents who are fighting, whether it's in Glendale, whether it's in Camerillo, whether it's in LA, whether it's in Hollywood, whether it's in Bakersville,

Starting point is 00:52:19 whether it's in all these different counties, right? Temecula is a conservative county. Temecula agrees with the conservative parents. And even Temecula, being the fact that it's a conservative county, caved, and they couldn't fight off the bully named Governor Newsom, Gavin Newsom. So what's the next step?

Starting point is 00:52:41 You have a few different choices. Here's the choices you got. A person a parent can sit there and say the following. They can say, I'm not going anywhere. No problem. I'm going to fight this fight. Perfect. Let's process that together. How long is this fight going to take you to win? Five to 10 years? Let's say 10 years. By that time, your seven-year-old is 17. They're already been indoctrinated. By that time, your 11-year-old is gone. Guess what? Whatever indoctrination they wanted to do to groom your kid,

Starting point is 00:53:08 they've succeeded. You lost. Just so you know, you lost. So now, what do you want me to do, Pat? What do you want me to do? You got homeschooling, you got private school, or you got Get the Hell out of California. Mark Wahlberg, who's a Hollywood superstar,

Starting point is 00:53:24 loved by everybody, moved to Nevada, okay. Rogan moved to Austin, musk moved to Austin because he didn't like what they were doing to his headquarters in Tesla. You got who else? You got golfers left there to come to Florida. I can't give you name, Tiger, Phil, plenty of names. Many athletes quietly behind closed doors are leaving yet these parents are sitting there Say no, I think they're gonna do so I think they're gonna do this the pain isn't there yet There needs to be such a massive listen Okay, so look what see it look what you pay let you psp the inspiration to you

Starting point is 00:53:59 These people went on a strike with youPS and all of a sudden what happens? They went on a strike they got a thirty billion dollar agreement that took the average rate to 49 bucks an hour for full-time employee working at UPS the minimum wage for a part-time employees 21 bucks an hour three times the national minimum, the federal minimum is 720. UPS got 21 dollars, okay, California. If you truly wanna do something, what about if we do this? What about if there's a national strike with parents, you guys do a massive zoom together,

Starting point is 00:54:41 and you do the following. How many of us are teachers? How many of us are good at math. How many of us are teachers? How many of us are good at math? How many of us are good at this? How many of us are good at that? Take the lead, do homeschooling with your kids, create environments where they can go to school, okay? Go raise money on a go fund me, okay?

Starting point is 00:54:59 And have somebody that's trusted that we can give money to, that's gonna manage this whole thing. And let's raise money on all of a sudden, imagine school days, August 15th is first day, or 16th, by the way, we're gonna do an event in Glendale.

Starting point is 00:55:12 It's so competitive, like some counties and districts are fighting the other districts, but we're the ones that started it. We're the ones that's, I said listen guys, ladies, I'm not here to compete. If this is about competition,

Starting point is 00:55:21 I'm about wanting to do something for the entire state. You guys figured this thing out. If you guys all want a unite, let's come in and fill in a place with 3, 4,000 people. I'm paying for it. I'm coming to you and they're asking, what are you? Like we're coming to you. You're not asking to come for it.

Starting point is 00:55:34 I'm taking two days of my life to come to you to do this stuff. I want to do to help you guys out, but rather than competing against each other, what if everybody unified all this tricks and said, who cares if your video went viral? Mine went more viral than yours. Who gives a shit, right? What if we all unified and we showed unity? This is why Newsom wins because if all these districts are competing against each other, Newsom's like, look at these guys. They're gonna eat each other up. They're worried about whose video went more viral while I'm winning over here and I'm finding you guys and you guys are cave and you ain't got that much power there you think you do but not flip it on them. Watch this. Let's all unify. Tom, what would happen if day one of school, if all of these parents that are concerned, their kids

Starting point is 00:56:17 just didn't show up to school and not one, not a hundred, not a thousand, not 10,000. What if 50,000 kids didn't show up to school? Wow. Hi. What if that was a state wide message to the entire, by the way, to the parents watching this that are fighting their fight? You guys got some audacity courage. I salute you for what you're doing.

Starting point is 00:56:41 At the highest level, the ladies I spoke to, there was a couple of these ladies I was like, oh my God, I love her fight, man, she's a boss. She's a dog, she's a competitor. I'm loving it the way, but ladies, gents come together, all districts. Your enemy is not another district that's doing a better job than you

Starting point is 00:56:58 on their Instagram account. What if you all come together, okay? And you show 10, 20, 50, 100,000? Let me tell you why this is your time to do it. Let me tell you. You got three weeks by the way to be thinking about us together Let me tell you why this is a time to do it. You know why this is the perfect time to do it What does Nusom want to do in the next 12 months? He wants to be the president wants to be the president And who is his biggest enemy is targeting and bastion on a weekly basis? The guy who runs the same place.

Starting point is 00:57:26 Ron. Well guess what, Governor Newsom? If parents, fathers, mothers, pastors, priests of Catholic church, if you guys come out together in front of his office in Sacramento, I don't know, you guys all roll up, do it. In front. And you do this for four, five, six, 10, 15, 20 days. You can afford 30 days. And by the way, some of you guys, I got kids that are six years old, 10 years old, 12 years old. If these kids, Tom, when does GPA really start mattering for college? Ninth grade or 10th grade?

Starting point is 00:58:07 Uh, you know, eighth to ninth year start, you know, it really, really matter. When do colleges start looking at your GPA to determine like, will they say, you have bad grades and eighth grade and we're not going to accept you? The body, the body of work starts in ninth grade and if those kids didn't have a week middle school, ninth grade always sucks. Okay, so let's just say ninth grade. You know what that means? They're targeting kids that are in middle school, ninth grade always sucks. Okay, so let's just say ninth grade. You know what that means? They're targeting kids that are in first grade, second grade, third grade, fourth grade.

Starting point is 00:58:29 All of them. You know what, this is gonna sound crazy to me. If my kid doesn't go to school for a month, and it's in sixth grade, and I can fight to protect my kids from being taught these nonsense videos of this is normal, a boy given, another boy, a blowjob.

Starting point is 00:58:42 I'm sorry, man. I'm gonna take my kid out for a month, and I'm gonna rally thousands of other people to do the same. Hey, Nusom, what do you wanna do about it? Problems in your state home, boy. What are we doing about it now? Now we got national attention.

Starting point is 00:58:55 Now everybody is talking about it. Now he has to do something, and he can't go around threatening a conservative community like to make it or to say one and a half million out of five where they're cornered to have to cave. Because what are they gonna do? These school districts don't have a lot of money. We have to to say one and a half million out of five where they're cornered to have to cave. Cause what are they gonna do? These school districts don't have a lot of money.

Starting point is 00:59:07 We have to pay that one and a half million dollars. By the way. That's why they're against vouchers because you put the voucher in the hand of the parents, school vouchers, Pat, you see what happens? I'm pulling my kids and pulling this. It moves the, it puts the economic power

Starting point is 00:59:19 with those parents, voucher states. And by the way, every, you know, again, it was such a weird dynamic when I talk to all of them. Everybody I spoke to a different school district, everybody in one way or another would throw a comment of, you know, we're the first ones that did this, right? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:59:36 You know what the first ones that did this, right? You know where the first this, I'm like, I'm like guys, honestly, I don't care. I went to Glendale, that's my pride and joy, because I went to that school. I want to Glando. That's my pride and joy, because I went to that school. I got great memories there. But Glando ain't gonna change shit alone, because the guy that's running the whole thing is a governor.

Starting point is 00:59:53 You gotta get his attention. And to get his attention, we gotta get 100 districts, 50 districts to come together. And if you do, you make that kind of a noise. During a lecture, you're... Forgot it. Joe's calling and saying, hey, governor Newsom, what are you doing to fix this thing here?

Starting point is 01:00:06 Okay, I don't know if Joe would be calling, Obama would probably be calling and saying, hey, what are you doing to fix this thing here? Anyways, I think, I think if there's ever been an opportunity for California to really stand up because this is a message only to those that don't want to leave the state of California. They do not want to leave the state of California. You don't want to leave the state of California. Well, let's show up.

Starting point is 01:00:24 Let's show up because your alternative is to say, I'm leaving, I'm out. So either an exodus or guess what? A, you fight. You fight. You gotta fight. But if you stay in the middle, these guys are European, like the other day somebody said,

Starting point is 01:00:38 why would you ever bring Anthony Wiener to the podcast and da da da da da da da da. Why would you ever do that? I got so many calls about Anthony Wiener, so funny, one day, Anthony Wiener, I love the way Pat fought next day, Chris Koma, hey, you know, Chris Koma, let's listen, Anthony Wiener comes in,

Starting point is 01:00:55 and I said, guys, you have to realize, if this guy, if you get into a wrestling match with a, you know, you're mud wrestle with a pig. You're gonna get mud on, you're gonna get dirty. They love it. And guess what, I have no problem. Yep. I'm not gonna be the proper scared person to say,

Starting point is 01:01:10 well, you know, for me with my three-piece suit, I'm gonna sit outside because there's no way you're gonna see me wrestling, but no, no, sometimes you gotta wrestle with the pig. Yep. And you gotta get dirty. This whole thing about us being too proper to want a wrestle with a pig,

Starting point is 01:01:22 you gotta get in there and bully him around a little bit for him to realize and say, shit, I'm not, you know, at the end he starts a apologize. I'm nobody asked you to apologize. He starts a apologize and then on Twitter he says, well, he asked me four times to apologize. Not one time that I ever asked this guy to apologize because you're wrestling with a damn pig.

Starting point is 01:01:38 That's how they are. You got to fight. You got to show up. So for me, they're already doing it. The only thing these parents are missing in California is only one thing. For all of them to get onto one Zoom together and say, guys, let's unite and let's roll, okay?

Starting point is 01:01:59 If they can do that, they will scare the crap out of the governor and all the other people that are bullying these great parents that all they're trying to do is raise good kids. Yep. And if that falls into the member of the three thing, the three people that you're talking about, do nothing, the lazy, the other, this isn't a left right, this is for your kids. You guys have to step up and you got to do something about you. Imagine how I was in those zooms.

Starting point is 01:02:27 I get it, the passion is there. It's like they need a little spark and set the shit up late. I know, there was a quote during the Revolutionary War. I can't remember who set it now, which really pisses me off. I don't remember that. But if we don't hang together,

Starting point is 01:02:39 we will certainly hang separately. And they were talking about going up against the British. By the way, what is that? That's the way this goes. Do you want to be hung out on your kid? If you don't hang together, you're all going to be stuck up there. There you're right, Benjamin Franklin.

Starting point is 01:02:51 We must indeed all hang together. I like it, dude. Or most assuredly, we shall all hang separately. Wow, that's right. That's dope. By the way, you know what is crazy? You know what is crazy? There was a guy who worked with 20 years ago.

Starting point is 01:03:02 Guy's name was Swan. Okay, the guy is known as the best in his industry and what he does. A lot of respect for this man. He would say, Unify, simplify, multiply, okay.

Starting point is 01:03:14 So, Californians must first unify, then they must simplify a message in all the different districts, then they must multiply. Unify, simplify, multiply. Unify, simplify, multiply. Unify, simplify, multiply. If they do that, the whole reason why the greatest team in the last decade is a team called Golden State Warriors

Starting point is 01:03:40 to have a very famous saying, strength in numbers. Strength in numbers. Strength in numbers. You unify, you will scare the crap out of them. I'll never forget I was recruiting guys to come to PHP, insurance, selling insurance. And it was the best to hear what the competitor was saying about us, okay?

Starting point is 01:03:58 And there was a CEO of this company, big company, massive company. He would say, look, you can go anywhere, we will not sue you. There's only one company you go to, we will sue you. And they would say, I don't know why they keep telling me, but what they don't realize is they were saying this to 50 other people and they were all calling me first. So like, you just can't go with Pat. You can go anywhere, you can't go with Pat.

Starting point is 01:04:24 You can go anywhere, we will not do anything to you. But if we find out you go with Pat, You can go anywhere. You can't go with Pat. You can go anywhere. We will not do anything to you. But if we find out you go with Pat, we're soon you. What were their fearing? Strengthen numbers. They knew if these guys were more divided, it's easier to compete when people are divided because this game is a very, very hard game. They don't wanna see different people

Starting point is 01:04:40 unify with each other. Just think about the state of government, California. They don't wanna see different districts unify with each other. Just think about the state of government, California. They don't wanna see different districts unify with each other. They wanna see all the big ring fighting, where better, your better, our Instagram has more followers than yours, our videos, go more viral, than yours and you copied us and that's our hashtag

Starting point is 01:04:54 and don't we use our hashtag? No, they wanna be able to say, can we agree that we all have a common enemy? Yes, who's the common enemy? The governor at the top that's ruining these things for us. Yes, great. Why don't we unify, simplify, multiply against a common enemy, which is who, the governor.

Starting point is 01:05:11 They divide and conquer, you gotta do what you said. And you're not fine. Did you see the video CNN made yesterday? Can you pull up my Twitter profile? You didn't see the video CNN made yesterday trying to trash the Santas? No, it is. It's a bad thing.

Starting point is 01:05:23 You're gonna watch this video thinking these guys are trying to trash the Santas. What's the context? say. As if it's a bad thing. You're gonna watch this video thinking these guys are trying to trash the Santas. What's the context? You have to see this video. It's comical. And I said, this is probably the best right there. That one right there. The second one.

Starting point is 01:05:34 This is probably the best at. This is a better at than any ad the Santas camp has done. CNN has done a better camp, a marketing ad for Ronda Santas. Watch this, just play the first minute, watch this clip here. They're trying to try to sense. We just thought it would be a nice warm place to live where we could get to beaches. I just never thought that I would have to flee a state

Starting point is 01:05:57 for the good of my children. To flee, keywords, flee. To the SB-254, this will permanent outlaw the mutilation of miners. That's great, yeah, good job. Make sense. This isn't a sketch, Pat, this is real. This is a real video from CNN.

Starting point is 01:06:11 I remember Cory coming to me one time and in tears, which she doesn't normally do. It's a boy, it's a boy. And I asked her what was wrong and she said to Santa's. And like the fact that a governor would be making my kid cry, that's a messed up government. We're absolutely moving because of the local people in the United States and Florida.

Starting point is 01:06:32 We didn't want to move. When the Florida Board of Medicine started meeting, and we realized that they were going to ban gender-affirming care for our kids, that we might need to leave, because that is life-saving essential medicine and care for our kids that we might need to leave because that is life-saving, essential medicine and treatment for our daughter. Oh, my goodness.

Starting point is 01:06:50 I was very repulsed. By the way, do you, do you, do you, does it actually look like it's a comedy sketch? I think it's a comedy, I swear to God. I'm waiting for the punchline. Guys, I'm not joking. By the way, I thought this is a comedy sketch. This goes like this the entire time and the girl says, this boy says, I can't take puberty blockers. I can't take it in the state.

Starting point is 01:07:08 I can't live here. We gotta leave. So, oh my God. So by the way, I'm waiting for, and we'd like to thank the inventor. By the way, the Dixaw. By the way, this is the best time. This is the best time for parents in California to unite.

Starting point is 01:07:24 Yeah. You could lead a movement in California to unite. You could lead a movement in the entire country. I have a feeling if they unite and actually bring some pain to the state, other states are gonna have to cave. This is how it works. Other states will cave and say, damn, we better do something about this.

Starting point is 01:07:41 You think somebody will, though, Pat? Like, when people like you, having the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, will though pat like with people like you were having the the the Mount telling people like it's your kid. This isn't like dude. Listen don't mess with Armenians Armenians are very weird communities I love you saw the statistic report that shows a top 10 angriest countries are Minions are number three number one is Lebanon number two is Turkey number three is our mean is there play games but but but you know who else won't Conservative Hispanics. Yeah, like a rich. You know who else won't conservative Hispanics. Yeah. Like a rich fan, like Ricky, you know who else won't play conservative African Americans. They won't play.

Starting point is 01:08:10 You can serve it in African Americans. Don't agree with what's going on here right now. They just don't publicly talk about it because they're Democrats. There's a lot of people that this is not just Armenians. This is Hispanics. This is African Americans. This is good Christian valued white Americans that want to do. There are a lot of people that are sitting there saying this is nonsense.

Starting point is 01:08:28 One of the families that sent me videos, this is the challenge though. They sent a video and they sent it on my sister and they sent it to Mario. They said, we want you to come and we would love to have here, but the only thing we have for you is we don't want to be any other agenda, but just to talk about this. I mean, this is not your show. There is an agenda. You know what the agenda is? Yeah. Here's the agenda.

Starting point is 01:08:47 Vote accordingly. Yeah. Okay. The agenda is start really studying what policies are causing this because you're living in California. You've been voting the same exact way. You're not happy with what's going on, but you're saying there shouldn't be any agenda. There should be an agenda.

Starting point is 01:09:01 The agenda is vote accordingly. Bad policies ruin great states. You lost the goat of business the last 30 years. Elon Musk left. You lost the goat of podcasts in the last 20 years. Joe Rogan left. You're losing people that are liberals. Rogan's not a Republican.

Starting point is 01:09:20 Musk is not a Republican. They left the state. They love because the policies no longer matter. Mark Walberg Hollywood left. So I think there's a big opportunity. I didn't say it's gonna be easy. And the same thing with Iran. You know we're sitting on them and like,

Starting point is 01:09:35 well, you need to go out there and do this. You need to go out there and do that. You need to go out there and do this. And you're not in Iran, the fear of doing anything with your kids. The only difference here is the harm, the harming of your kids. Okay, they can't do anything.

Starting point is 01:09:46 This is not Iran. There are laws. We have social media. People are seeing this document the hell out of it. Have a camera everywhere. Citizen journalism everywhere. Let people show what Antifa's all about. I saw a girl that said something.

Starting point is 01:09:56 I thought it was great. She says, I'm not worried about Antifa. I faced against an Antifa member. They were scared of us. We don't need no Mongols and these guys and Marasavatruatraucha X now Christian, you know, changed our lives, people to show up, these antifilm people are not tough people, they're weak.

Starting point is 01:10:09 She's right, but they've scared a crap out of you to the point where an Alex theater and a Hilton in Glendale is not willing to do it. And unfortunately, those are two the biggest places you can't do those events. Anyways, we can do it. Do you remember when we had Nikki Fried on the podcast? I sure do.

Starting point is 01:10:24 She was running for governor, she lost a Charlie Krish, she was running against Rhonda Sandeson. I do those events. Anyways, do you remember when we had Nikki freed on the podcast? I sure do. She was running for governor. She lost a Charlie Kriss. She was running against Rhonda Santa. I do. Yeah. Yeah. And remember the argument that she made? I'm like, so tell me why you're gonna beat Rhonda Santa. It's like, what's your message if you were gonna be his opponent? She eventually lost a Charlie Kriss who got what lampooned by DeSantis by 20 points. Yeah. And she's like, you have no idea. And by the way, respect to her for coming on the podcast. Respect, respect. So we're not like trying her,

Starting point is 01:10:50 but her argument made no sense. She's like, you have no idea how many people I talk to that want to leave this state and they're fleeing the state because of Rhonda Sanchez's cruel, inhumane, anti-woke agenda. I'm like, yeah, no, you don't. Yeah, not. You know what I told her to do?

Starting point is 01:11:07 Yeah. I remember what I told her to do. I said, who? Who? Oh, you don't do an interview. Yeah. I want to be one name. I said, give me one name.

Starting point is 01:11:15 Go ahead. Yeah. Couldn't give you one. No, because it's the book you, man. It's up. Yeah. Ron Asant is, you know, whether he wins for president or not, that's another conversation. But he landslide here in Florida.

Starting point is 01:11:24 Yeah. And that this, we're speaking of the CNN commercial. It's like how a minute of an audience is a transgender teen parent considering leaving the state because of Desonian, DeSantis's draconian law. It's like, you're coming down to the lowest common denominator that nobody cares about. I thought there was a set designer that put empty boxes in the room.

Starting point is 01:11:47 Do that look, by the way, and Joey just message me, I'm doing a sketch making fun of that, that is brilliant comedy. That is fun. Let's move on. Yeah, let's go. I give these parents a D for the following reasons. Obviously that young person has got some emotional things

Starting point is 01:12:04 when you say these parents, let's qualify the CNN parents the CNN parents here Tiffany and Kelly Mickey Wait Tiffany and Kelly. They're both I don't get it. They're both female. I'm gonna move on but I'm making a point here I give these people a D for two reasons number one It's obviously that that young person their son that now identifies as female Number one, it's obviously that that young person, their son that now identifies as female, it says it's got something going on and needs counseling.

Starting point is 01:12:28 And there are great counselors out there to figure out what's going on. Are you just gay? What's going on here? And the second thing is, these parents are not doing that. So they're not supporting the true need of the child. Number one, and number two, they're teaching him, now her, to run.

Starting point is 01:12:44 And they're not sitting down to face these things of life. And I give him a D for that. It's not about trans, that I'm saying. It's not about anything. What I'm saying is these parents are getting a D in my book. You're teaching them to run. And now you'll be in New York. You won't like that.

Starting point is 01:12:59 Where do you run next? His father's name is Kelly. His father's run next. When I saw the father's run, run. The moment I saw the father's name is Kelly, I was like, okay, it's a wrap. It's over. Wait a minute.

Starting point is 01:13:08 By the way, tie it. Well played on giving them the D. I get it. The trans thing. The whole get it. Given the top and off the D. I get it. We saw that Tom. Good job.

Starting point is 01:13:16 It's not where I was going. The point is they're not helping their child. I sang. Oh, Santa's father. Kevin Spacey acquitted on all nine sexual offense charges in London trial. This is a Reuters story. Kevin Spacey is acquitted from all nine

Starting point is 01:13:32 with the jury finding him not guilty by majority after 12 hours and 26 minutes of deliberation. During the trial, Spacey emotionally thanked the jurors and stated, I'm humbled by the outcome today and express gratitude for the juries, careful examination of the evidence, space-y face accusations of being a sexual bully and aggressively groping three men while he claimed the incidents, if they occurred, were consensual describing himself as promiscuous and engaging in casual indiscriminate sexual encounters.

Starting point is 01:14:03 The accusations led to significant professional consequences for the actor in 2017 with his removal from TV drama House of Cards and a movie, all the money in the world. Vinnie, what do you thought of this story? Okay, well, first of all, acting wise, you already know Kevin Spacey, usual suspect House of Cards,

Starting point is 01:14:21 one of my favorite shows ever, and still is, he was found guilty right by his lawyer said his name is Patrick Gibbs he told the jury verbatim and I quote it was not a crime for his client to enjoy casual gay sex because it's 2023 not 18 23 and the four four victims of this said that he was vile he was a sexual predator, which I've never heard anybody call somebody slippery, which is weird. Atrocious, despicable, and disgusting.

Starting point is 01:14:49 And let's not forget everybody. In 2019, back in the day, three of his past accusers died. Ari Ben committed suicide. Linda Culkin hit by a car and another jandol, which the cause of death was unknown. And then, Maju, he was accused for groping Anthony rap, who was 14 years old at the time. Elton John Pat, you know how good it, this was in London, it helps when Elton John comes to your side and speaks as a witness to the jury.

Starting point is 01:15:17 I'm pretty sure that didn't help anything, but dude, what's scary is, and I know people forgot, back when one of these guys committed suicide, one of his accusers, Kevin's basically made a video during Christmas. That to me, Basie said to people because he says you kill them with kindness. He says dead and kill them with kindness twice. Rob, can you show this video so people can see how scary and creepy this freaking guy is? You didn't really think I was going to miss the opportunity to wish you a Merry Christmas, did

Starting point is 01:15:46 you? It's been a pretty good year and I'm grateful to have my health back. And in light of that, I've made some changes in my life and I'd like to invite you to join me. This is not a movie. No, no, no, it's not a movie. And as the kids are just died, committed suicide. Has my vote for more good house.

Starting point is 01:16:03 No, no, no, no, no, listen. I know what you're thinking. No, no, no, no, listen. I know what you're thinking. No, this is his own video series. Watch, watch. This is a dead series. Dead series, watch. It's not that hard, trust me.

Starting point is 01:16:14 The next time someone does something you don't like, you can go on the attack, but you can also hold your fire and do the unexpected. You can kill them with kindness. Are you are you kidding me? It's a positive. Patrick, this is just a skit. Yeah, that's not a movie. That's a video he made on his show. That's a real, that's not a skit. By the way, there's a speaker. Let me say one thing. He's speaking in a Southern accent. He's doing he's playing a character here time out This isn't a real guy. Yeah, he's doing Frank from okay, okay, so there you go guys guys. Thank time out

Starting point is 01:16:51 I've He's doing it. He paid for this production He's basically saying somebody just died that said that he groped or gave them a blowjob and he made this video saying You kill them with kindness. If that's not him saying, if you F with me, you're going to die and he's smirking and he's laughing, that's the Hollywood elite untouchable. I said it two weeks ago, he knows he's gonna walk Scott free

Starting point is 01:17:19 and this is the protected elite, Epstein perverted, messing with 14 year olds that we fucking just say, ah, it's all good. It's all good. Just like what's his name, Pat? Who was the actor? Uh, the one with the hoods was wife was crying about the kid that he molested. Uh, wood.

Starting point is 01:17:35 Woody Allen. Woody Allen. Woody Allen. We let this shit go and he's gonna walk Scott free. And that's it, bro. That's scary and that's disgusting, bro. Groping 14 year old kids. He also wrote what's his name?

Starting point is 01:17:46 Who's the other actor? The one that was... There's a couple of things when you look at this here. So there's a couple of things, okay. I subscribe to innocent till proving guilty. That's number one, I do. Because for us to go hardcore after him and then when people say, what about Tate,

Starting point is 01:18:04 what about Tate, What about Tate? What about Tate? And it's like, no, this guy's for short guilty, but no, those guys are innocent. I subscribe to innocent until proving guilty period. Now, having said that, do I think OJ Simpson is innocent? No, I don't. And neither does anybody else in America.

Starting point is 01:18:19 If you go right now, pull up the poll. What percentage of Americans think OJ Simpson killed Nicole Brown and see what the percentage is and you'll see what numbers come up. A recent poll on what percentage? 71% think so, okay. And it keeps increasing year after year after year after. You're in today's even harder than that, by the way, if you show the poll, right? The civil trial, he was found guilty. Right. From the gold fence. And Pat even had, yeah, but he didn't do time. He didn't go away.

Starting point is 01:18:49 No. He didn't do anything. He was free. There was an emotional day when the announcement was made. Riot's were outside, OJ's out, right? And he go to Michael Jackson. You know, I mean, what's wrong with them? Have an underwear everywhere.

Starting point is 01:19:01 This is just very friendly when they sleep in my bed. I'm like, no bro, there's nothing normal about that. And guess what? Nothing really happened there with Michael Jackson, okay? Michael didn't go to jail, Michael didn't do anything. Of course, you know, God rest the soul, you know, whether he's in heaven or hell, that's not on us, that's on God to decide that.

Starting point is 01:19:22 But the point is, this isn't the first time a powerful Hollywood celebrity got away with literally murder, that can be said. Okay, 100%. Yeah, that can be said. So that's the part that you can defend. For me, if you were to ask somebody, do you think he did those things and we run a poll, I think probably most people are gonna say,

Starting point is 01:19:44 I believe he did, how he got away with it in London. I don't know how the courts are in London. I don't know if they're stricter. I don't know if they're more lenient. I don't know if they're anything else. I don't even know if that case can be open in a different country or in a different, I don't know any of that.

Starting point is 01:19:57 I don't know what's gonna happen there. But he had 14-year-old actors said he broke me and tried to rate me at what point do we say, okay, enough is enough. And the arrogance to make that video is just like when OJ, you brought up OJ, great point point. He wrote a book called it didn't get published. I didn't do it, but if I did, this is how I would have killed her.

Starting point is 01:20:17 What the fuck? I'm sorry Pat. What? The OJ thing. What? Let's not complete OJ. No, it doesn't matter. Who literally killed somebody. No, but doesn't matter. Literally killed somebody.

Starting point is 01:20:25 Two people. No, but it's with whatever Kevin Space, it's a pity I'm going to ask you a question. You asked me to. I'm going to call this. Yeah. Do you think he's guilty? Or do you want Kevin Spacey to be guilty? Think about it.

Starting point is 01:20:37 I'll tell you. You want him to be guilty. Definitely not. I told you I told you I'm a huge fan of his work. I've been following him for all these years. I think he is because why would two 14-year-olds kid, Richard Dreyfus's son was another one. Like, what are these kids?

Starting point is 01:20:52 We don't believe kids. Now, he looks, by the way, and people were like, my friend was like, he's gay. That's not even, who gives a damn? He's, he, one of these accusers that was in London said that while he was sleeping, he took off his pants. I don't know how the guy didn't wake up, but he was trying to get him a blow job

Starting point is 01:21:10 when the guy was sleeping and it's like, bro, it's sexual assault and the line that I draw, Pat, and you know this, when it's to the kids, when it's a 14 year old kid, and what, your lawyer's better than that kid, and that's what you get off, no, no, no, bro, no, no, no, I'm sorry. Listen. I mean, there's off limits My by the way if you watch the Michael Jackson interviews There's plenty of interviews when you're watching you're like, dude, that that's sick. What you just said right?

Starting point is 01:21:36 We're just we're just just we're just unbad. We're not doing anything. It's just innocent You know, it's just kids. It's tickle fight stays, it's that like, no, and then the, the, the, what do you call it, the maid. It's like, no, there was always under words there with stains in the underwear, in the interview of the documentary, and all of some people coming out saying, I can't believe you said this,

Starting point is 01:21:55 and a forced a guy to flip the script. Look, there's a lot of dark stuff that happens in Hollywood. That's for sure. The story is endless. I mean, you got a story here with a guy that just comes out from Epstein. Okay, watch this. Billionaire Leon Black paid Jeffrey Epstein 158 million dollars over five years. What for? What for? Now watch when this story continues on how all of a sudden it flips and becomes a very, very weird story here with Epstein, what this guy did.

Starting point is 01:22:26 This is how it works on page 13. Yeah, so 150 million dollars, Leon Black, 150 million dollars from 2012 to 2017, with the Senate Finance Committee now scrutinizing the extraordinary transactions. Black claim, the payments were for advice on trust in estate planning tax issues and his family's office operations 158 million dollars and fees for state I'm going through a state planning right now It's a lot of money it ain't a hundred fifty eight million dollars Senator Ron widened race concerns about the payments which appeared to exceed those two professional advisors and question white black Saudad vice from Epstein black

Starting point is 01:23:02 resigned from his Apollo sought advice from Epstein Black, resigned from his Apollo from Apollo in 2021 after the law from investigation revealed Epstein's involvement and advising came on tax avoidance and selling portions of his $1 billion art collection. Black is currently facing a federal lawsuit from an unnamed woman who alleges he raped her when she was 16 years old at Epstein's home with Black's attorney dismissing to lawsuit as uncorroborated. Now Rob, pull up the next story and just actually put it up, the New York Post story. And look at this year, guys, look at this year, New York Post.

Starting point is 01:23:33 And what's the date? July 25th. Billionaire, oh, really on Black, accused of raping autistic teen after handoff from Epstein lawsuit. What? Okay, so let me read this here. A billionaire investor faces allegations of raping an autistic teenager at Jeffery Epstein's

Starting point is 01:23:51 Manhattan Mansion in 2002. After Epstein arranged the encounter, the victim referred to as Jane Doe, accuses Black, a violently assaulting her, would sex toys cause in her to bleed while she was only 16 years old. According to the lawsuit, the victim was trafficked by Epstein and Jelaine Maxwell for about a year before the incident.

Starting point is 01:24:08 Would Black make an or vulnerable target due to her mosaic down syndrome condition? Epstein supposedly introduced her to Black saying he was important and a special friend, Blacks lawyer Susan Estridge denies the claim stating he never met this woman. He doesn't know her at all. We're confident the lawsuit is totally uncorroborated by any evidence. So why did you pay $158 million in five years for advice? Advice? For advice? $158 million. Wow. Stories like this are coming out. And the biggest question is going to be the following. For the longest time, what's one of the best,

Starting point is 01:24:46 what's one of the movie, give me movie titles about the mobs, you know what was one of the titles? God, yeah, but what's one of the one's untouchables? Untouchables. Why did they name it untouchables? Because they were untouchable. Yeah, the mob in Chicago, yeah, you're untouchable. There's no way this is gonna happen.

Starting point is 01:25:03 And in all of a sudden, a guy undercover FBI agent for five years and 10 months, Joe Pistone, AKA Donnie Barron, Donnie Grask, which I was one the first to interview him and that thing got like 10 million views, right? When we did the interview. And we did the interview in Boca, I think eight years ago, seven years, seven, eight years ago.

Starting point is 01:25:21 For eight years, for five years and 10 months, he acted like he was part of the family, helping them out at the parties, everything. He was doing everything. And all of a sudden, one day he got so deep into it, that the FBI finally said, you ain't doing this anymore, he was about to get killed.

Starting point is 01:25:39 He comes out, how many people get caught, 240, something people get caught, and what happens to the mob? The untouchables over with overnight and all you saw was 240 men dressed nice suits walking out arrested and it was unbelievable how they finally got them. How did they finally get alcohol? It was basically what? That taxes, right? Okay, so right now, if we were to say the modern day untouchables, who are the modern data untouchables? You can put Epstein, Jolaine Maxwell.

Starting point is 01:26:13 Joe and Hunter, Hunter, that's part of untouchables. But you can put Clinton's part of the untouchables. The best. You can put quite a lot of people that are part of the untouchables community. Okay. Fauci, he's part of the untouchables community. Okay. Fauci. He's part of the untouchables community. And there's this notion, like if you were living in New York, I'll never forget I went

Starting point is 01:26:32 to the restaurant with Mayor Giuliani, Italian restaurant you guys been there before, and the owner shows up. Okay. And he sees the mayor and he's Italian. The owner is Italian. In his 60s. It's high, we love this guy. And he says, hey, Mayor Giuliani, I just have to tell you, I just wanna thank you for what you did to cleaning the streets of New York. It was so unsafe, we were so worried. Thank you for making it safer.

Starting point is 01:26:58 And he's thanking him, he's emotional. A 60 something year old Italian man is emotional because they never thought the streets of New York were gonna get cleaned up. Okay. That's the impression I got from the way he was talking to Mayor Giuliani. I've never lived in New York,

Starting point is 01:27:14 but I've interviewed almost every single living mob person, the top most powerful mob people that have been interviewed. I've talked to all of them. Can I got a relationship with all of them on what happened? I want to learn for myself. So, there's this notion that people like you, Vinny, who they want you to eventually believe nothing's ever going to happen to these guys. They want you to believe that. They want you to go there and they want you to convince other people that nothing's ever going to happen there and they want you to convince other people that nothing's

Starting point is 01:27:45 ever going to happen because they see themselves as what? The untouchables. But let me tell you something, man. The world works in a very weird way. Okay. When I was, when I've been in this business for some time and I've seen certain things, people do behind closures and I say, this is not a good idea. This is just not a good idea what you're doing. It's not gonna work. Eventually, one person came out, two people, three people, four people, five people, six people, seven, and it was like, that's not gonna be working on.

Starting point is 01:28:12 We're starting to see all these stories. An average person's gonna sit there who is hired a lawyer before, who's hired an accountant before. And more importantly, Tom, how many billionaires are reading this article? There's 700 billionaires in America, 700 to 900 billionaires in America.

Starting point is 01:28:27 The average billionaire who's reading this, not the average billionaire, any billionaire that's reading this, you know what they're saying? They're sitting there saying, man, in my life, I haven't spent $158 million in vice-fee, in fees. We saw the company and we spent a lot of money to to sell a company you ain't spending a hundred and fifty eight million dollars You do a state planning with the best that does all the family planning for billionaires

Starting point is 01:28:52 You don't spend that kind of money doing a state planning and it's a complex a state planning I Guaranteed every single billionaire knows this guy's a dark guy to stay away from if you paid up seen a hundred fifty a billion dollars the only people that will still befriend this guy are also people that give up seen money behind closed doors and it was also they want to be able to see how this is very normal, I did too, this very normal, I did too.

Starting point is 01:29:12 Does anybody that says this is very normal probably also paid up seen some money? Probably so. You know, I'm a pet, it's like a struggle, especially because I've changed in the past six months. I'm going to church, I'm trying to be, you know, a better person. On Sunday, you know, the pastor was like, instead of people think you have to leap into this loving God and you just take these little steps to become better.

Starting point is 01:29:33 And in my head, Pat, it's the attitude of since humans don't look like they're doing it. God at one point is going to deal with these people. But the other thing that we heard, Pat, you know, because you were there, it's you have to love your enemies, which is one of the hardest things that I've been struggling with is that all these evil demons that are out were told that we're supposed to still love them. You're supposed to have compassion for these people. And that's the most difficult thing I'm dealing with because I hope I'm having hope at from what

Starting point is 01:30:03 you're saying is people are waking up and the laws and everything is changing They're gonna be held accountable here, but I personally don't see it happening here And the only comfort that I was getting is that God God will make these people pay for what God uses though Yes, who God uses? Hafez rode a poem years ago. Can you type in Hafez flute? Put Hafez flute God. I'd love to read this quote to you. Okay, they're right there, right there, okay? Okay, right, they click on that, zoom in. He says, I am a hole in the flute that the Christ's breath moves through, listen to this music,

Starting point is 01:30:43 okay? Listen to this music. I'm the concert from the mouth of every creature singing with my raid chorus, quote from Hafiz. Now, somebody may say, I may hold in the flute that the Christ breath moves through, listen to this music. Do you know why I never miss church on Sundays? Because my fear was, that was the Sunday that God was gonna speak to me through somebody else

Starting point is 01:31:04 using that person as a fruit. I didn't wanna miss service. Do you know why I never miss sales training? I never miss sales training because in my mind, I was afraid that week when I was asking for questions from God, I was worried God was trying to deliver a message to me I was gonna miss that message.

Starting point is 01:31:19 You know how sometimes people run out of a meeting and they skip and like, I don't need to be around some mistake because God uses people to talk to you. God uses people to give an answer to a question of yours that you're having. I also believe God's tool for fighting the evil is other people. You know, there was a story about a Marine

Starting point is 01:31:38 that's sitting in a classroom and a guy says, I guarantee you, if the God really exists, watch this, if God really exists, let's see if anything will happen to me. I'll can prove to you right now that God does not exist. A marine walk down and punch the guy in the face. Wow. So what's the matter with you?

Starting point is 01:31:55 So I just wonder, Poo-Tee, that God exists. Wow. He told me to come and punch you in the face with you, God exists. You can't talk like that about God. Well, that's a true story, which is a metaphor. That's not, but the point is this, about evil and I'll come to you. I don't think that my interpretation with the whole

Starting point is 01:32:08 tolerance thing, I don't think he's saying, love your enemies as in like, let's go love the behavior of Jalain Maxwell and Epstein and some of these other guys. I don't think that's what he's saying because, you know, God's enemy was who? The devil, evil, Lucifer. This guy fell and he wanted to go and convert everybody into his way of thinking and half his battle was the best line in the movie Fallen is what? The greatest trick the devil ever played. Was convincing, man, he didn't exist.

Starting point is 01:32:39 It was convincing the man that he, you know, so I said, oh my God. That was a usual suspect. That was also, that was also in Fallen. Both movies. Yeah. Okay. So, so, so, so funny. We're talking about usual suspects and the devil. So, yeah. This does mean we sit and we say, it's okay with Kevin that this does mean we sit and we say, it's okay with Jalena. These guys are doing that. That's not, that's not what that means. And that's how it all seemed. I'm saying, well, I love them because they're in pure peace.

Starting point is 01:33:01 You still got, you still got a love on. I know. Still got a love on. Still got love. It's not easy to go ahead. Tom. Well, I think we're, you're bringing up here. You still got love on it. I know. You still got love on it. It's not easy to go ahead. Well, I think we're sure you're bringing up here. It's very clear. And there's a very, very simple maxim that is at the core of the love of your enemy's tenant that Christ taught. And he basically says, hate sin, but love the sinner. Love your enemy because inside that person who is committing sin is

Starting point is 01:33:26 a human, it's just as flawed as you that needs love and needs my salvation. And he says, your sin will find you out and there will be consequences. That's very simple. There it is right there. You love your enemies, but don't put yourself in a position to be hurt by them. But inside that person, should they be able to leave the life of sin behind and set aside the sin and uncover There is a core person in there that is just as valuable as you are Mm-hmm, and that's it's so simple But it doesn't mean love them and put yourself in peril. It just means you know Your enemies without the sin is a person like you and by the way

Starting point is 01:34:01 I love I love the direction going do we want to go Hunter Biden or Mitch McConnell next? I have some quick numbers for you Go ahead about Leon black. This is so what I'd like to do right now is just this isn't in my opinion Let's you know follow the money. We're talking about Leon black here with Epstein and all that. Yeah, so his firm is a follow Global well. I mean massive financial firm hedge fund. Whatever you want to call them. They're massive right His net worth as of today. I guess is $10 billion, okay? So would you go with me here? In 2012 to 2017, do you think his net worth was less or more back then?

Starting point is 01:34:38 I would say less. Probably less. Of course. Right, because you, he's making it more money. Okay. So here's the deal, right? Money's gonna go up. So we're talking maybe 10 years ago,

Starting point is 01:34:48 maybe his net worth was five billion, right? Is that fair? Yeah. Okay, maybe it's seven. Okay. So in the asset management game, in the AUM game, Pat, what is like,

Starting point is 01:35:01 we're not giving you a sweetheart deal, we're not hooking you up, we're not giving you a discount, we're gonna not hooking you up, we're not giving you a discount, we're gonna give you the normal rate. You have a million bucks, you have 10 million bucks, we're gonna charge you what percent? 1%? Is that fair?

Starting point is 01:35:14 Yep. Okay, so let's say, all right, you wanna bring over $10 billion or $5 billion. Are we gonna reduce our 1% fee? Yes. Maybe you reduce it to what? Half a percent. Half a percent.

Starting point is 01:35:30 Yeah. Okay. Because the number of dollars is so high, takes care of all the services you're providing. I mean, it's like if you're gonna sell a real, like a home for $20 million home, and it's like, I know you usually take 6%, you're gonna do this thing for 3%.

Starting point is 01:35:40 Hey, you got it wrong. We're gonna do 6% in the first million, we're gonna do 3% in the right time. Keep going, so I'll let it make the point. So here's the point. Bat, we're gonna do six percent of first million. We're gonna do three percent there. Keep going. So here's the point. Bat, you're a math guy. Allegedly this guy paid $158 million, 2012, 2017. If you're worth $10 billion,

Starting point is 01:35:54 what's one percent of $10 billion? 10 million. No, 100 million. 100 million, $10 million. 100 million dollars. So best case scenario. We're gonna charge this guy the full amount. He's worth $10 million. So best case scenario. We're gonna charge this guy the full amount. He's worth $10 billion.

Starting point is 01:36:09 Like follow the money here. At the very fucking most, you're talking $100 million. But he somehow paid $158 million. Now, you said a half a percent, which I think is, I think you would do even a quarter percent. But let's even use a half a percent. You're a is, I think you would do it even a quarter percent, but let's even use a half a percent.

Starting point is 01:36:26 Your 100 million just went down to $50 million. I think that's fair. What's my point? How the hell are you paying $158 million? For what? Something's up. Yeah, of course. On $10 billion, maybe you're paying,

Starting point is 01:36:39 and this is just as it's under management, whatever, straight, fee-based, only whatever. Maybe it's 25 management, whatever, straight, fee-based, only whatever, maybe it's 25, 50, million. The numbers don't add up here. 158 million, that's my point. Yeah, and by the way, we said that a long time ago. Yeah, it just doesn't make sense for you to do that.

Starting point is 01:36:57 On 10 billion, you're right. One percent is a hundred million dollars. No, listen, it takes a naive oblivious person to say there's nothing shady going on here for this guy to pay. You know what this conversation look like? What are the chances the conversation was like this? Hey, Leon, I gotta have a meeting with you. You wanna come to my office?

Starting point is 01:37:15 I'm busy. Trust me, you're not busy enough. It is, make the time. The other part, you said you're not assembled. Yep, so you come to the meeting. Okay, I want you to watch this real quick. Watch what? You just watch this on my phone.

Starting point is 01:37:30 Oh shit. Yeah, so I have the video. Okay, just so you know what happened that day. So here's what I need you to do. Yeah. I need you to pay me $150 million over the next three, five years. For me not to present this to anybody else.

Starting point is 01:37:45 I won't tell anybody, I won't give it to court, I won't do anything, your family won't, no, nobody will know. But if you do that with me, I'll protect you, I'll do this, I'll do that, I'll do this. And you can call this fees as a consulting fee. So that's what I need for, I need you to sell a portion of your art collection

Starting point is 01:37:59 to pay up for this. I can't believe you're doing this totally understand Leon, that's my business, It's just business. Not a personal, it's just business, nothing personal. Wow. And then he goes away, huffing and puffing and angry and all this stuff, but he paid $150 million. And here's what the script's gonna be

Starting point is 01:38:15 when you tell the public. You're a billionaire, somebody worked your money. No one's gonna care if you paid me $158 million when you were 10 billion and it's not gonna hurt you. So I expect that money in my account by such and such. Here's a routing number. Here's this. Mary will call you to get that money set up. Okay. Exactly. What a likelihood that conversation took place. What you just said right there. So it makes you. Here's the video. Now by the way, I may be wrong, but I think it

Starting point is 01:38:39 went something like that. Let's go with you want to go Hunter Brighton, Mitch McConnell. Let's talk about 100 both like that. Let's go with, you wanna go Hunter Brighton? I'm Mitch McConnell. Let's talk about Hunter. Both. Okay, let's go with Hunter first. So video, Hunter Brighton pleads not guilty to tax charges and Delaware federal court. This is a Wall Street Journal story, Rob. If you can pull up the video and let me see,

Starting point is 01:38:57 do we actually have a story here or is it just a clip that you have to show? Because I think, oh, there it is. It's the paid six, Hunter Brighton. I'm gonna read what the judge said about it. Okay, judge refuses to accept 100 items plea deal after initial groom and falls apart in court. This is an insider story.

Starting point is 01:39:15 100 items attempt guilty plea to two tax crime charges fills as the judge raises concerns about the groom and scope and potential immunity from future prosecutions related to business dealings. The plea agreement was null and void after questions arose in Delaware federal court. Prosecutors accused Biden of illegally avoiding taxes in 2017 and 2018 with them reportedly owing around 1.2 million dollars which he later paid in full the revised plea agreement covers 2014 to 2019 focus on tax offenses drug uses and gun possession the u.s. district judge merilin norieca

Starting point is 01:39:50 and appointee a former president donald trump declined to accept a plea deal and expressed concerns about the scope of the charges leaving the plea on hold as the case unfolds so uh... tom are you following the story closely or no uh... it's it's close as I want to. Vinnie, what do you have on this? Rob has a video pack, I'll show after this, but what you guys don't realize is what happened yesterday,

Starting point is 01:40:14 one of Hunter Biden's lawyers contacted the court clerk's office, falsely claiming to be part of the Houseways and Means legal team and asked the clerk to pull the adverse filings of technical reasons. So they were doing like some trickery and they got caught. The court figured out what happened and demanded answers from Huntington's spirit. Wow. Dude Pat, that you should be this barred as a lawyer. You're calling pretending to be somebody else. Anyway, they got caught and I think they should be this barred. But Pat,'s the question. I saw this live. This is Hunter Biden, a private citizen. I don't give a shit who's sunny is. He's showing up to the courthouse

Starting point is 01:40:50 and a six car secret service convoy detail with like 20 other secret service. Pat, show this and then tell me who's paying for this. Look at this. This is not the president. This is the president's son. Look at this protection, bro. And look Pat, you see all the secret service on the right. Yeah, of course. That's the lead, the

Starting point is 01:41:09 lead vehicle has to stop that to go there for, for just the case, somebody wants to do something crazy. They give the okay, you would think the president of the United States is coming out of the vehicle, right? You guys are all paying for this. Look at this. And you talked about Mr. Untouchable. That's him right there. Untouchable, going into court and nothing's gonna happen to him. His lawyers are calling the clerk Adam, that's all. Dude, you know how illegal that is, what they just did and nothing's gonna happen? But here's the part about why, if you're conservative and you hate Donald Trump because you're a rhino or you're the Santa's guy or whatever you are, if there's anything you have to know

Starting point is 01:41:46 that why this screws it up for Hunter and people like that, out of all the states that you could have chosen to appoint a US district judge, Trump appoints judge, Maryland, Norieca in Delaware out of all the states. You don't think he knew eventually something could happen that this judge is going to come back and help him out. I don't know. I think I think these are the types of things that you realized.

Starting point is 01:42:14 If there's anything we learned in 2016, the election, he flipped three seats. That's what led to a row V Wade. That's what led to a lot of these other tax things that they couldn't do, that's what led to them wanting to make the election all based on what he called it. Who gets the most votes, rather than electoral votes. They want to do the popular vote. That's what they wanted to change, if they had it.

Starting point is 01:42:39 They would have changed that. They would have changed so many different things and these judges. So, you know, love it or hate the guy, the guy pointed some judges that are now backfiring on the people to say, hey, you thought you were gonna get full on immunity on additional thing that's going on?

Starting point is 01:42:53 Uh-uh, that's not gonna fly with us. We're gonna eventually see what's going on here. By the way, for another person similar to the offense that Hunter Biden has, that person went to jail for five years under this judge, same exact judge. Same exact crime. Same exact crime. Same exact crime five years, yes, go ahead.

Starting point is 01:43:07 So, by the way, fully appreciate what you're saying about the judges, we talked about that in 2020 when doing the election and everything with that. Here's the way I see this. I mean, we can have the whole Hunter Biden discussion, you know, he should have registered with the barizamas, registered as a foreign agent and the foreign agent resolution act and you got paid eight million bucks and barisma and all that nonsense.

Starting point is 01:43:33 He's facing what he's facing. I think that the maximum sentence right here, by the way, the best variation is going on five years, five years. Maximum sentence is 12 months in prison, apparently, and $25,000 for each accountants, to the Wall Street Journal. I would argue the macro perspective here, okay? Because ultimately, if Joe Biden loses the election, nobody's gonna ever say the name hunter Biden again,

Starting point is 01:43:56 who gives a shit? Nobody will. It's over. Like the whole thing is comes down to, at this point, the economy's doing better. We address that on a play months down. Inflation's doing okay. We'll see where the stock market is in terms of election.

Starting point is 01:44:09 I would argue that Hunter Biden is Joe Biden's number one political liability at this point. I agree. He's a fucking liability. You think? You think? You think? So, you know, everyone made the joke that Joe Biden was

Starting point is 01:44:22 hiding in the basement during 2020. I wouldn't be surprised if Hunter Biden goes on a little vacation, come election season and everything will be whether it's dismissed, whether there's a, whether they, there's a plea deal, whatever. He's wanted to do everything you can to get this over and done with by the time 2024 starts. And that's a political liability.

Starting point is 01:44:44 Kamala Harris is his vice president. You're talking about the whole liability. Yeah, exactly. But at the end of the day, Adam, and I get what you're saying, it's the accountability of, and it's not due to you. I can give two shits about Hunter. He's the luckiest dumbest cracker on the planet. It's all the stuff that those laptops have about him,

Starting point is 01:45:01 the big guy, the text. His father's implicated with everything, with Russia, with Ukraine, everything. And guess what? We're sending all this money to Ukraine because it's almost like they have all this dirt on him and they're like, listen, keep the billions coming. Or like Pat said with the video with that ogre billionaire, we're going to expose all the shit that you did. So Zelensky's like, keep the money coming, keep the flags going. And I'm not there. I don't think the whole Ukraine war is happening. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

Starting point is 01:45:30 no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no the president is compromised. If the president's compromised through all this information on the laptop,

Starting point is 01:45:45 it's not just Burisma, it's China, China, it's all this stuff. Adam, it's his son's dumbass exposed the father, but again, we're going with the untouchables, you can't touch these people, bro, they're in. And when you have the FBI and the DOJ and your back pocket, you're good, bro, you can get away with literally murder. The whole procedural side here is what really stinks.

Starting point is 01:46:04 I mean, he had a cause. mean, yesterday, I was reading, this is the part I dug into that I really didn't want to, but it caught my eye and I dug into it. While his lawyers, his hunter, his lawyers are in there and trying to put together this plea deal, and the judge is asking the prosecutors, have you completed all of your investigations? And they said no.

Starting point is 01:46:24 And she asked, have you completed all of your investigations?" And they said, no. And she asked, have you completed the foreign corrupt individuals' investigation? They're like, no, we haven't. And then she's saying, well, then, how can we agree to a plea deal on this charge with the gun and on this charge here? How can you agree to a plea deal if there's still investigation ongoing and not all of the charges are here that you're going to play out on. You have to complete the investigation to say the investigation

Starting point is 01:46:49 is completed and there's these five charges. Okay, bottom two, cancel the middle one, top two, you got it, take guilty and then we'll give you the, and we'll do the fine and we'll do the sentencing like here. You guys in agreement? That's how plea deals work and judges chambers. But yeah, so let me show this on what he's saying, okay? He being Vinnie. Rob, I'm gonna send this to you. I want you to pull this up if you can, or Google Ukraine, BlackRock, hundreds of billions, okay?

Starting point is 01:47:20 Ukraine, BlackRock, hundreds of billions. Was this the rebuild plan? Yeah, so if you look at this, this just came out with financial times. If you can click on that, okay, I don't know if it's gonna let you, okay, BlackRock, hundreds of billions. Is this the rebuild plan? Yeah, so if you look at this, this just came out with financial times. If you can click on that, okay, I don't know if it's going to let you. Okay, good, zoom in a little bit. So BlackRock and JP Morgan help set up Ukraine Reconstruction Bank. Okay. Fund aimed to attract billions of dollars in private investments,

Starting point is 01:47:41 but it's not billions of dollars. If you go lower, this is another story that was done. There it is, right there, Black Rock Jam, you crane governor's reconstruction bank to steer public, seat capital into rebuilding projects that can attract ready hundreds of billions of dollars in private investments. So what is this? I interviewed who's the guy's name that we had on multiple times, the economic hitman Perkins. What's his first name? John Perkins. We had John Perkins on. And John's job was to be an economic hitman. He would go to countries who had a resources and he would say,

Starting point is 01:48:15 hey, here's what we're going to do. We're going to come and build up a bunch of different things here for you, but this is what we're going to ask from you. You have to listen to everything we do. We'll bring jobs, we'll do this, we'll do that, we'll do this, we'll do that. If you don't, we'll kill you. That was a job, by the way.

Starting point is 01:48:30 If you've never read his book, or what he, this guy's a Democrat, full-blown liberal on the other side. And he wrote this book, it was a big hit, this book. I think, yeah, confessions of an economic hit, man. That's what he did for a living. He told me to my face, you know what he said? He says, you know what would happen to a guy like you

Starting point is 01:48:46 if you were running a country, he said, what, you wouldn't be alive for too long. A guy like you, because you wouldn't agree to what we're doing. So guess what, publicly, we are seeing the consequences of an economic hit man taking advantage of Ukraine, that if you go type in Ukraine resources, they have some of the best resources in the world that we need. It's not like it's a place without any resources.

Starting point is 01:49:09 Ukraine resources on where they rank, type in Ukraine resources ranking. Like metals, everything, right? Everything is in that ground. Brother, they are one of the best, the country ranks fourth globally in terms of total assessed value of natural resources. With roughly 15 billion dollars in annual output of potential assess value that could be as high as $7.5 trillion. Let me say this one more time, that could be as high as what?

Starting point is 01:49:32 $7.5 trillion. So guess what blackrock and Larry think thing? Bingo, this is the type of a place for us guys that's going. So for you to say, well, I don't think that's really what's going on, what happened with everything with the movie, the vice? What's the story about? The Donald Rumsfeld, or Dick Cheney, or some of these guys?

Starting point is 01:49:49 What do you think they're doing behind closed doors? War, war, war, we make more money. Let's get the contracts. Keep it going, guys. This is great. Halibut, this is another, the people that are following this story, a person very easily can look at this and say, I don't know if this is like a conspiracy theory.

Starting point is 01:50:05 This is CBC. The country ranks fourth globally in terms of global assets value, natural resources, roughly $15 billion in annual output with a potential assets value, potential assets value of as high seven and a half trillion dollars. You think Larry Fink who runs BlackRock, who's got over $10 trillion of assets

Starting point is 01:50:22 under management, only two countries, GDP, is bigger than Larry thinks, companies, total money under assets under management. China and US, black rock is the third largest country. If you were to look at what they have assets under management. They're coming in here saying, guys, come on guys, what are you doing? You work for us. Here's what you're gonna do, Zelensky.

Starting point is 01:50:42 Here's what you're gonna do, Biden. Give this guy that likes drugs and women and prostitute a little bit of this to be quiet. What are we doing here? This is too much noise we're making. Guys, stop it. We gotta go make a few hundred billion dollars. You guys are playing small games here.

Starting point is 01:50:53 Let's go play the bigger games. A person who's not following it this way, you're either naive or you have so many things going on in your life that you don't have time to follow this stuff. And we don't blame you. At some point, I then, my head was down working, building my mic, making my money. I didn't have time to follow this stuff. And we don't blame you. At some point, I then, my head was down working, building my mic, making my money. I don't have time to follow all of this stuff.

Starting point is 01:51:08 I was trying to solve for my own thing. But now when you see this, you realize what's really going on behind you, Crane. Bingo. That's essentially what I was saying. I was like, we're talking eight million, eight million, sorry, eight million, that's not the, that's peanuts.

Starting point is 01:51:20 But what you're saying, black rock, but all this stuff, but let me tell you, let me finish. Go ahead. All I'm saying is this is the real thing. No, no, no, by the way, you know where you're going. Yeah, but let me just say a point. Make it your point.

Starting point is 01:51:32 I mean, we're about to go around your scene. I'm coming off. We all know that never let a crisis go to waste. Yes. Okay, what happened in Europe after World War II? They did something called the Marshall Plan. I think it was like $13 billion, which in today's terms is $130, freaking billion. What do you think is going to happen in Ukraine after this, the war is over.

Starting point is 01:51:52 That's essentially what BlackRock is doing. They're going to rebuild Ukraine, take all their assets, essentially what we did in Iraq, take the oil, everything. They're going to set up money, all that fun stuff. What I'm saying is ultimately this goes this goes beyond Hunter Freakin' Biden. No, I disagree. Okay. I disagree.

Starting point is 01:52:08 Tell me why. Because, man, people's souls is for sale for not that much money. People play such different roles and playing a pawn that you can make so many deals for me. Are you kidding me? The fastest way for me to get the vice president to do stuff is I gotta pay his son some money

Starting point is 01:52:27 that's so cheap. This guy's a cheap buy. You're nothing. Epstein 158, eight million to guy like this, but you know what, I'm big of a role he plays. You know the same meeting I said about Leon Black. You wanna have the same meeting with a Biden? You don't think Biden's had a similar meeting

Starting point is 01:52:42 to say watch this video with your son. Look what we got, that's your voice, by the way. Of course, that's you. By the way, here's what you're gonna do. You're gonna keep giving Ukraine money. It ain't no Zelinsky scare into crap out of Biden to give him money. It's more people like Larry Fink or more powerful people

Starting point is 01:52:56 that are running these state street vanguard. Those guys are saying, we're gonna put Ukraine money because we're eventually gonna go out there and change everything about Ukraine because they got up to seven and a half trillion dollars of resources, the fourth in the world. That's what we're doing. Your sons got this. Don't get in our way, Joe. Here's what you're going to be saying to the public. No more screwing around. We got your back as long as you follow orders. Again, this is a speculation.

Starting point is 01:53:19 I am not part of the CIA or underground, whatever that I notice, it's pure opinion speculation. But let's go to the last one here. So both you're right and both he's right. All I'm saying is it's a complete. It's a common dream of what you have approach. No, it's not one or the other. It's both of them. I actually fully agree with what you're saying.

Starting point is 01:53:39 That was ultimately my point. Yeah. There's those bigger forces that play here. 100% and a hunter freaking by it. Let's wrap this up here with Mitch McConnell. This is disturbing thing that happened yesterday. Go ahead and play this clip with Mitch McConnell. He froze.

Starting point is 01:53:51 He froze. It's happened before, but this one's disturbing. Can you put some audio rock? Because he's being asked questions and he's not responding. Yeah, we need audio rock. Can you go to the audio? Just go to the right side. Move the thing to the right side.

Starting point is 01:54:05 Come on. The back, the back's gotta pop it up. Okay, guys, can you put audio on the back? Can you raise it? Yeah, by the way, he was just in the middle of giving us speech. He was, he was speaking and then just froze. Guys, can we raise the audio? Okay, got it.

Starting point is 01:54:23 Yeah, he's not speaking. That's why there's no audio. No, no, no, no. There's background news when you're watching this, because this doesn't tell a story. Rob, let's find another clip. It's him standing like that. Go to my account. Just go to my Twitter account.

Starting point is 01:54:38 And you'll see the one that I posted. He's literally frozen. And they eventually had to move him and take him to the side. Yeah, no idea what he had. No, right there. Don't want it to left. Don't want it to left. Click on the one to the left.

Starting point is 01:54:51 Don't want it to left. Yeah. Okay, this one should have audio. There you go. Watch this. That's Joni Earth. Watch right there. What?

Starting point is 01:55:06 John Thune Center. Virasso. Watch how you watch. Oh. Look, he has no idea. These are the people making decisions for us and our future and our kids' future. You have the other video of him being escorted away. I think it's right next to here.

Starting point is 01:55:27 Senator John Thun just, you know, taping in, finishing the speech. You have that next video. It was like the alien inside of his head rebooted. Here's this one. I'm walking away being escorted. Pat, you see that? How old is he?

Starting point is 01:55:43 81. 81 years old. Pat, he's 81 years old he's 81 Joe Biden's 80 Pelosi's 83 Maxine Waters is 84 Chuck Grassley's 89 Diane Feinstein is 90 she doesn't even know who or where she is Carl Schwab 85 sores 92 the Robbie Kim Plaza is that like okay when people talk about terminus is there is there no way to change the fact that this is showing you, like they're falling apart in front of our eyes and they're being on the list. John Stewart gave a talk 11 months ago, right in front of it

Starting point is 01:56:12 where he said, these motherfuckers are 200 years old, they're like, turtles, they're here, they're saying, guess what, here's the thing that both the left and the right agree on. Yeah, finally. Term limits, guess what, make it Yes. What? Make it work. Okay. Make it work to get term limits in for this. Now that's not like an overnight thing.

Starting point is 01:56:30 Good luck getting that in. Yeah. Because it's more working the other way around. You know, when you see stuff like this, did you know in 2010, they passed a law to allow corporations to have an open checkbook on how much money they can pretty much give to a campaign.

Starting point is 01:56:46 Like, do you know how much money we all of a sudden started putting into presidential campaigns? Because it was an open, have you seen this chart on? That's how many campaign finance. Can you send me that image that shows exactly how much money was put into campaigns from, you know, 2008 to 2012, 16, 2020. I'd like to take a guess. There's no cap, there was no cap. No, 2010, they opened it up to say unlimited amount that you can put in.

Starting point is 01:57:11 And now don't give me wrong. So Supreme Court, I believe, a lot of Supreme Court ruling that if you can, if Brandon is watching, Brandon, I know you are, if you can just send me to pick for me to show it to Rob, let me see if he's, I know he's emailed it to me, but go ahead if you're watching this you're Tom you see McConnell react that way. What do you think about? Well, I think about the citizens United 2019 citizens United, that's what you all can

Starting point is 01:57:36 go Google and look up. Supreme court decision. We're John Roberts wrote the majority position. It basically took campaign finance. It used to be, hey, check this box on your tax return. If you'd like a dollar, one dollar to go to the presidential election fund number one. And then there was limits. You could only give so much each year or each election. There were limits. Citizens united basically uncapped corporate and it ticked everything away. So it's all special interests that control it.

Starting point is 01:58:08 And what do special interests and the uncapped corporations want? They got to keep their puppets packed and their puppets are 90 year old mummies walking around. Oh man. Yeah, by the way, somehow citizens is united, has a Google, where's it called when you can give ratings,

Starting point is 01:58:24 Google ratings, all that. Yeah, they're 1.8. Good, great. It's a non-proven organization. We're gonna get an email. Brandon says he emailed it to you. So basically Pat, the person with the most money giving to the, to these people wins.

Starting point is 01:58:37 It's just a richest person gets them the most influence over who they want. Yeah, I mean, that's insane, bro. And by the way, listen to the, how they, the logic of the show. On the court. It's only one bro. And by the way, listen to the logic of the short. There's only one sentence you have to listen to. The court held five, four, that freedom of speech clause of the First Amendment prohibits the government from restricting independent expenditures for political campaigns by corporations, including nonprofits, labor unions and associations.

Starting point is 01:59:01 What? That's why the criticism of it is, wait, you used freedom of speech. They classified money, classified money. They classified money. And I'm limited in campaign donations. Amazing. And by the way, you know who wanted this?

Starting point is 01:59:15 Every member of Congress wanted this because I mean the special interest, because I'm an oil man. You're a farmer man. You're an agriculture man. And you're a, you're a healthcare woman. You're known by your number one donor base. And what you carry. Oh, if you've ever heard the,

Starting point is 01:59:33 it's a great phrase, oh, your Israel's guy on the hill. And when they say things like that, oh, you know. There you go, check this out. This is how much money presidential campaign financing 79 to 2020. What? It was only 197 million in 1979, 80. Then it went to 226, 380.

Starting point is 01:59:48 Nothing crazy. 346, 478, 612, 891 Obama. $1.769 billion and 1.46, 1.529. Trump Biden, look at that. $4 billion. More than the three previous elections combined. They spend everything they had to terminate and fire Trump. That's how bad they wanted to get rid of him.

Starting point is 02:00:09 So corporations came to get and said, let's an open checkbook man, here's some under, let's get rid of this guy. Let's get this guy's draining the swamp and we can all longer do our deals that we were doing. Just got making our life a little bit hard. Boom, look how there's never been a greater increase on wanting to either elect somebody

Starting point is 02:00:25 or get rid of somebody than Trump. That's a great point. Look at Obama. Obama raised that kind of money because it was a dream. It was the first time in US history, man. We wanna see this. Look at the second one he dropped off. He's the only guy that for reelection

Starting point is 02:00:39 his money dropped off. That's not a reflection of Obama being a bad thing. It's just the fact that they really, really wanted him to win the first time around, but they really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, Gord Bush. Yeah. 2000. Gord Bush. $612 million was spent. Yeah. 612. Well, we all know they used to use the B word.

Starting point is 02:01:11 6.5 times. They used to use the B word when they're printed money. Billions. Now it's all about the trillions. No, but it's just one out there. It was 2019, by the way. Citizens United should print court decision 2019. Boom.

Starting point is 02:01:23 Well, it's no wonder if you just follow the money, we just talked about it the other day in the podcast, five out of the top 10 richest counties in the country are all in what city? Washington DC. It's all the money. It's all the lobbyist money. It's all the campaign finance money.

Starting point is 02:01:37 It's all going there. But back to Mitch McConnell, because how this whole thing started. Look, obviously the guy's not well. You know, and generally I'm not a Mitch McConnell fan, but I hope he's doing well time to step aside. You know, the only answer to term limits, right? Because everyone wants term limits,

Starting point is 02:01:54 but who needs to vote on term limits? The Congress people, they're not gonna do it. So the only answer to that is actually voting these incapable vegetables out of office. So it's incumbent on the constituents. Constituent people love it to vote something like this up. So someone in Kentucky was like, yeah, I want six more years of McConnell. And this is what you get.

Starting point is 02:02:15 Oh my god. For those popsicle sticks. Bro, it's it's almost like the alien in him was like rebooting like. Yeah. We didn't begin to the alien story. There's a lot of things we can we need. We need three hours to be honest. We should have mommy us. We have two hours, but like five minutes. alien in him was like rebooting like yeah, we didn't begin to the alien story. There's a lot of things we can we need three hours to be honest. We have two hours, but like five minutes. We are at the end of the podcast. We covered a lot of

Starting point is 02:02:30 story. Great job, Jen's great job, team in the back. Thank you, Rob Gank. For those of you that our VIP tickets, I think sold front row to meet VVEC. I think we got a couple of the premium left and a couple generals left that's happening next Friday here. Here. Is it next, not in the... Yeah, with VVAC. Yeah, at 99.000. Not live, public.

Starting point is 02:02:52 Gotcha. So if you haven't yet registered, there's a couple generals left. The IP did sell out. So for those I wanted to meet them, that's not available.

I just want to prep you for some of the other ones we'll be doing.

Starting point is 02:03:11 Get ready to open up your checkbooks to meet some of these guys. But we're excited to have you guys here next week. If you want to get registered, either go to 5990live.com or text-a-word podcast to 310-340-1132. Again, text-award podcast to 310-340-1132. Have a great weekend. Everybody, we will do this again next week. Take care. Bye-bye. David, you're from the ITM and PBRD podcast. Look, once a year, we host a conference called the Vault Conference. It's our Super Bowl where 3,000 entrepreneurs, CEOs, executive salespeople from around the world come together to spend three and a half days together from August 30 to September 2nd at the diplomat resort in Miami to learn how to scale their business, how to identify

Starting point is 02:03:55 their next 5, 10, 15 moves, who to recruit next, who to go raise their money from, how to raise capital, how to properly scale, culture, retention, higher fire, all of those things and much more. And we do that over a span of three and a half days. And the reason why it's a very important season to attend a conference like this to follow and reason. Today, there's three different types of people. They're scared. They're those that are content and the obsessed. The scared, they don't want to do anything because they're worried about what's going to happen to the economy. They're going to take a big hit. The content, they're walking on St. Life is pretty okay. I don't need to do anything else.

Starting point is 02:04:26 And then there's the obsessed because they see a massive opportunity today. So imagine spending three and a half days with three thousand obsessed people that want to grow in a season like this. Imagine how much you can run from just those relationships and networks. So on top of the people

Starting point is 02:04:40 that are gonna be attending at this event, this probably the best lineup we'll ever have out of all conference. Tom Brady, seven-time champion. I'll be interviewing him. He ever have out of all conference. Tom Brady, 7-10 champion. I'll be interviewing him. He'll be at the all conference. Mike Tyson, Will Gidera, the gentleman who ran the restaurant, 11 Madison, New York, that went from a regular restaurant to a one-mission and start, two-mission

Starting point is 02:04:55 and start, three-mission and start. And eventually, the number one restaurant in the world. He's going to talk about how to treat their customers. So look, if you've not registered, yeah, this is my recommendation to, I never went to conferences when I was coming up on myself. I always went with a spouse, with a business partner or running mate because I only have a lens on what I see every night

Starting point is 02:05:12 afterwards we would sit there and say, what was your biggest takeaway? So get yourself your spouse, your partner, you're running mate registered to come spend three and a half days with us at the diplomat resort in Miami from August 30th to September 2nd. I will see you there.
