Starting point is 00:00:00 I just want you to know if you just joined us. This is the 25th podcast episode we're doing. If the last 15 minutes were live, this would be a bad situation if the last 15 minutes were live. We're having a little too much fun. Adam telling us his pickup lines, which may be for different episodes that we'll do.
Starting point is 00:00:18 Anyways, we have a lot to cover today. A lot of crazy things happened last two days. I'm gonna show a video I did about voting just so you know where my values and principles lie. This is a video I did, April of 2014. Okay. On how I felt about the voting system and how I think we should change the voting system,
Starting point is 00:00:38 we'll get a chance to watch it, hopefully, on 1.5. Just still relevant. I think today. I think it's important because some of the stuff I was watching myself, I'm like, okay, that's extreme. This is, but it's good to see it to kind of see what happens. And you evolved.
Starting point is 00:00:51 You're a big deal. I think you'll see when you see where I was at at that time, but I actually like what he had to say. What the 35 year old P.B.D. had to say, I actually like what he had to say. I like that guy. He's a good guy. He's a good guy.
Starting point is 00:01:01 Okay, we're gonna talk about age, ages. Like what ages do we get to do certain things in America? Being a president, being a vice president, Senate, House, sexual consent, smoking, alcohol. I guarantee you some of you guys are gonna learn numbers about age and consent, certain things that you never thought were legal. We're gonna talk about today.
Starting point is 00:01:23 Alibaba's singles day that they had, they had a decent day. You will let you know how that compares against Amazon. Bill Ackman makes another massive bet on new, new COVID-19 surge. The last time he made this bet, Kai, the last time he made that bet, he made a lot of money. But he's doing it again. And this time around, he's doubling down billionaire. You'll see what he's going with it. Pfizer CEO, the day after they announced the vaccine, you will not believe what he did with his shares the day after they announced the vaccine. I mean, it's shocking when you find out what it's seriously. It's shocking when you find that, and I'm curious to know your thoughts about it.
Starting point is 00:02:01 Ammunition backlog of $1 billion, Adam's been concerned every day lately. Have you guys noticed that? Adam's been complaining about ammunition backlog of or billion dollars, Adam's been concerned every day lately. Have you guys noticed that? Adam's been complaining about ammunition backlog. Yeah, I'm concerned. I mean, I, I, I mean, I'm back order for months now. I gotta get my guns. I need, I need 10 more. That's why you got his num-tucks out.
Starting point is 00:02:15 10 more guns. No, no, no. Adam's gonna get away with anything by just being charming and smooth. Listen, I don't think it's a good idea for you to shoot me right now because she want to live a long life and enjoy. Listen, you know, don't you want to do it? I got to tell me to tell you, the day that you shoot me and kill me, you will die the next day. This is what happened. That's exactly the line. That's part of my man. What is it? Episode three or two, I think it's one of them we talked about genius.
Starting point is 00:02:37 Right. Premonition. Governor Abbott welcomes major stock exchange to us, the NASA, the happen conversations right now. Kai, did you get the story about California and knew someone, what New York and California is doing? Is it in there or no? Is it in here when I go to it? Okay, George is doing a recount by hand. Biden's a buddy is saying that we should shut down the economy for six weeks, which is a brilliant idea, obviously.
Starting point is 00:02:59 Tesla, a sell-in to Kilo Bottles for 250. Where is that article? That's the article I want to really talk about. The one that talks about, let me see where you have it. That are nearly 80% Americans say Biden won White House, ignoring Trump's refusal to concede. That's Reuters, which is a big number. We'll talk about that as well.
Starting point is 00:03:17 I do not see where you have that guy. Is it under politics? What? Top of the page where it starts with Republicans. Can you read it? You just read it. You're talking about about you're looking for the 80% number? No, no, I'm talking about how California and New York are telling you how to celebrate Thanksgiving. Have you seen that? It's absolutely berserk. Oh, there's on a, a, a, a,
Starting point is 00:03:39 a, if you don't have it here, I don't see about my governor. I'm, I apologize. It's at the bottom of the page where it says politics. Well, we get into it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it.
Starting point is 00:03:51 I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it.
Starting point is 00:03:59 I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't see it. I don't Oh, I look so fresh this morning because I woke up this morning. I said, I don't know why I just want to look good for Adam today. It's a commitment I made to my sister.
Starting point is 00:04:11 You know, why don't I do that for me every day? No, I just I do it every day. Sometimes a YT shirt, sometimes it's YT. That's pretty consistent. Let's talk about looking fresh. Tom Rook, the Kangles, the freaking head back to the 80s. You know what? When I don't spend any time on my hair, it saves me 10 minutes.
Starting point is 00:04:24 It's awesome. 10 minutes. Wow know what, when I don't spend any time on my hair, it saves me 10 minutes. It's awesome. 10 minutes, wow. So, minimum. So, let's get into it. Alibaba, let's start off with business. Alibaba, okay. All we think about is, and here about is, Amazon, Amazon, Amazon, Amazon, Amazon, right?
Starting point is 00:04:35 It's all we hear about, and we talk about Amazon all the time. If you want to give it to me, if you have that, Alibaba's single day that they have is that yours or mine. Mine, okay. Alibaba's single day, which is Amazon's prime day, right? Alibaba's single's day post virus ends up doing $56 billion dollars. Let me say that one more time. Singles day does $56 billion in a day.
Starting point is 00:05:03 Amazon for their prime day day this year they did three point five billion dollars three point five billion verses fifty six billion dollars which i can sixteen times is what they did uh... singles it was created about alibaba exact jackman daniel jank as a foil to valentines day did it eleven eleven was picked because it looks like bear branches single and unattached.
Starting point is 00:05:25 We feel even lonelier now. Alibaba kicked off sales a little earlier this year as of 12, 30 AM local time consumers spend $56.3 billion on products. To move all the products around, Alibaba's logistics arm prepared 3,000 chartered flights and cargo ships, 3 million logistic workers and 10,000 mobile lockers to get the stunt. What do you think about, I mean, yeah, the logistic, 56 billion against 3.5 billion.
Starting point is 00:05:51 Yeah, you know what, I don't begrudge these guys how rich they are. Same. You know, bezos and Jack, by the way, how is Jack Ma only worth $40 billion? Oh, he's not. He's just a hundred billion. He just crossed a hundred billion dollars.
Starting point is 00:06:02 You know, when you see a picture of Jack, you kind of get the idea why he wasn't getting a lot of dates on Valentine's Day, and he had to create this. But hey, brilliant. I'm sure he's getting dates now though. Oh my God. Can you imagine? Hey, here's a little fun fact about, um, about singles day.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Just the amount of bras they sold on the first day, 1.6 million bras. How would you get? If you stacked them up, it would be three times higher than Mount Everest. Isn't that unbelievable? That's a lot of bras to move in China. You know, they sold 1.6 million bras. Just on the first day. And I think this is, I think this hit 100 billion, you know, because they do it longer.
Starting point is 00:06:37 It's more than just one day. They go and go and go. I think it's a great sign that the economy is strong. If China, China, where they started the virus, you know, is doing this well with their economy. It's a good sign, but it also reflects on the fact that the pandemic, people are shopping from home more. Those are staggering numbers, the logistics,
Starting point is 00:06:54 so what you just talked about, the amount of planes and how these guys coordinate this thing. We can tick off if our Amazon delivery is 15 minutes late. Can you imagine what's going on in these warehouses where they have to like, you know, maybe that's why it's so hard to work for Amazon and they run such a tight ship. But I think it's staggering. I think it's unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:07:11 And I hope I hope it's a sign of good things for the economy of China's having this much success. Always reassuring when there's a 1.5 million braw selling. It's always a good thing. But what are your thoughts about this numbers? A lot of titties are being thanked on singles day protected. Yeah, protected. Good for them.
Starting point is 00:07:27 I mean, speaking of Jack Ma, what was the big news from him last week that he launched the, the largest ever IPO ever with, well, exactly. Well, the, the, the, the, the, I'm not sure necessarily sure. It flopped. Is that was that was that was the, what do you mean? The final news flop. What actually happened? Did it? What happened?
Starting point is 00:07:48 I'm asking it didn't happen. It didn't happen. No, it was launching it and then what? What Chinese government kind of stepped in? It didn't happen. They stopped it. Poor Jack Ma. I mean, so where did, how did his wealth go from 400, uh, uh, 40 billion to 100 billion overnight?
Starting point is 00:08:02 I thought it was called your company. That's 56 billion. It's all because company, that's 56 billion in a day. It's all because of the alley by the alley by the way. The list came out yesterday. He's now on the list of a hundred billion, a hundred billion dollar network. It's him, it's Gates. I think it's Zuck.
Starting point is 00:08:13 It's Musk. And I'm one other one. I'm missing one other one. Musk, Zuck, Gates. What's up? No, it's the rental guy. It's the Louis Vuitton. What is that?
Starting point is 00:08:23 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh my God. By the way, how high will that get in our lifetime? Will we see somebody at 500 dire? It's the rental guy. It's the Louis Vuitton. What is that? Oh, yeah. Oh, my God. Yeah. By the way, how high will that get in our lifetime? Will we see somebody at 500 higher? You think Bayes are in our lifetime? In our lifetime. You think we'll see a trillionaire?
Starting point is 00:08:33 In our lifetime, who's the youngest? He's 40, so let's just say he lives in 90. He's healthy, takes care of himself. 50 years and 50 years, I think we could see a trillionaire in 50 years. But there's also a good chance if Biden gets reelected, if he gets elected for the first time, that Bayesos could be a millionaire. Well, that's an interesting one right there.
Starting point is 00:08:51 It'll take more time. I think it'll take AOC for him to be a millionaire. We need an AOC for him to be a millionaire. I think Biden's not going to make him a millionaire. Anyways, okay, if you're watching this and you're enjoying it, why don't you share this with others and push a thumbs up for our buddies at YouTube to for the algorithms to kick in. Because I know we're just getting warmed up here
Starting point is 00:09:12 with the stories, I really wanna get into this California New York story, but I think we lead into it. Let's hang tight for it. Let's talk about Bill Ackman here. Let's talk about Bill Ackman and we'll go into the vaccine situation. So Bill Ackman, billionaire, made another massive bet on the new COVID-19 surge.
Starting point is 00:09:28 I hope we lose money on the next hedge. Ackman told the Financial Times Conference on Tuesday, we're in a treacherous time, generally, and what's fascinating is the same bet we put on eight months ago is available on the same, is available on the same terms as if there had never been a fire and the part on the probability that the world is going to be fine.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Bill Ackman just placed another big bet against the credit markets as coronavirus case of search nationwide. The billionaire has as said, he bought eight million dollars worth of insurance that will pay off. It's if company starts defaulting on their debts like they did when the coronavirus shut down the economy in the spring, the bet is nearly identical. His now famous hedge and late March, in which he bought $27 million of credit default swaps,
Starting point is 00:10:16 CDS, which is what they used to do in the movie, the big short. He bought a $27 million credit default swap that netted him a staggering. You ready? He bought $27 million in March that turned it into $2.6 billion. Is what he did. He's banking on the economy, taking a hit.
Starting point is 00:10:33 When Ackman took his profits on March 23rd, there were just over 10,000 new cases of COVID-19 nationwide. On Tuesday, new cases were just shy of 140,000, a dizzying number that has stoked fears of a second lockdown. What are your thoughts on this? This biggest thing was, you know, he came out in mid March pre lockdown. I mean, what was the big event that happened that the world was like, or America was like, holy what's going on?
Starting point is 00:10:55 The NBA lock this or NBA and when the NBA shut down, everyone was like, what the hell's going on here? That was like, I think March. Yeah, that was the whole thing. Maybe give or take. Fair enough. Yeah, that's. He came out, I want to say March 15, 16, March. Yeah, that was the whole. And maybe give or take. Fair enough. Yeah, that's. He came out, I want to say March 15, 16, 17, right, like second week in March.
Starting point is 00:11:10 And he basically, his first thing he said is, hell is coming. It was like the lead story on CNBC. Hegefon billionaire Bill Ackman has announced, hell is coming. And basically called on Trump for a lockdown. This is pre full on lockdown. And the Domino's fell and clearly the guy was right because COVID exploded at that point.
Starting point is 00:11:32 He placed the correct bed is has been called to what the single best trade of all time. I mean, this is what a hedge fund guy does, right? I mean, you buy a position. 27 million into 2.6 billion that quickly. I think there's something shady going on there. No, no, I'm just thinking to great move. You know, yeah, he's really saw something coming. Obviously, here's the deal. I mean, stay in your land though, bro. I mean, you know, you don't need to be telling the president what to shut down.
Starting point is 00:11:57 Okay, if you want to get rich, you're an opportunist, you're brilliant. I have no problem with that whatsoever. Here's the problem I have. He is quote after this latest round of shorting, he goes, I hope no problem with that whatsoever. Here's the problem I have. He is quote, after this latest round of shorting, he goes, I hope we lose money. Yeah, right. Okay, don't be disingenuous about it. I mean, you're in it to make money.
Starting point is 00:12:13 If you're so concerned about, hey, I don't want this virus to take off and more people to die and get sick and blah, blah, blah, then donate the money you made the first time. Okay, you're a capitalist, you wanna make the money? You got the opportunity. Say, I hope we make another three billion. Don't be like this. Okay, it makes it seem like. He's playing both sides. He wants to be nice, but also make a couple of billions. He's protecting himself. Yeah, you know, what I know, I also don't like the fear that he's throwing out there too. Oh, it's coming. It's coming back in March when he made that first bet.
Starting point is 00:12:39 There was only 10,000 cases. Are there more than that now? Has it gone up? I haven't seen the latest stats. Are there still 10,000? No, I'm joking. It's Has it gone up? I haven't seen the latest stats. Are there still 10,000? No, I'm joking. It's like, you know, one of four millions. Right. So anyway, you know, it's going to work. This timing for him is perfect. If Biden holds on to this, it's all setting up for him to double that. What did he bet this time? He put on how much is some eight million? Is that all he did? So he didn't go 27 million again. I don do know. Okay, this one is 30% as big as the last one, I think.
Starting point is 00:13:09 Yeah, 30% 8 million. Yeah, exactly. What are you doing? Just if you're just put another 27 if 27 turned into 2.6. He's not as confident. Yeah, that's so eight that 8 million, if it did the same thing, it would turn into 800 million dollars.
Starting point is 00:13:21 That's what it would do. That 8 million to 800 100 X your money and the span of800,800, $800,000, $100,000, your money and the span of a couple months. We already, you already, you already, for the year, we already 100x has money the first time around. Imagine doing that again and the span. But I tell you, I think if he's going from 27 to 8, I don't think he's as confident about the fact that he, it's going to be as bad. If you're that confident, you would put 54. You would put 100. What's on you? Just made 2.6 billion. Watch what 100 of it. Who cares? What's 100? You know, here's my biggest problem with it though because okay, he's successful doing this.
Starting point is 00:13:48 It's working. A lot of people have seen the big short movie. There's gonna be a lot of people jealous that day Didn't think of this that have the ability to do it that are in the financial world What's to stop them from creating a frenzy that another wave is coming so they can make a billion dollars because the media will run with it They love these stories that the country is falling apart is ready to shut down again that the COVID virus is taking over everything. So watch for that because there's going to be a lot of people that are jealous. They didn't think of it. If you're watching this, what do you think about it?
Starting point is 00:14:15 What do you think about a guy betting 27 million bucks to turn into $2.6 billion right afterwards? What are your thoughts? Is that okay? Are you comfortable with that? I'm curious. If you're watching this comment below. But let's get into the next story. The next story to me, it's, I mean, guys,
Starting point is 00:14:30 this is very weird. Pfizer CEO announces the vaccine, caches out 60% of his stock. On the same day, the company unveiled the result of its COVID-19 vaccine trial. Let me say this one more time. This is not a typo. the company unveiled the results of its COVID-19 vaccine trial. Let me say this one more time. This is not a typo.
Starting point is 00:14:47 Pfizer CEO cashes out 60% of his stock on the same day the company unveiled the results of its COVID-19 vaccine trial. So they announced the vaccine, how it did, the 90% efficacy, all the stats that they gave us, and he sells 60% of the stock on the same. Wouldn't you keep it if you think the company's gonna be going up? Wouldn't you be thinking, you see all the stats that they gave us and he sells 60% of the stock on the same wouldn't you keep it if you think the company is going to be going up? Wouldn't you be thinking that the market responded Disney went up everything went up except for those zoom stocks,
Starting point is 00:15:13 the companies that were relying on the pandemic to stick around. Albert Borola sold 62% of a stock on the same day. The drug maker announced the COVID-19 vaccine trial. Borola sold $5.6 million of a stock on Monday as part of his pre-determined trading plan. Adopted August 19, his stock sale was carried out at $41.94 a share. The 52 week high for Pfizer was $41.99, so five cents less. Which means the CEO cashed at his shares at close to their highest price this year. Pfizer and his German partner, BioNTech, on Monday became the first to post positive results from late stage COVID-19 vaccine trials.
Starting point is 00:15:50 I mean, he has to know when he makes this move that it's going to hit the media and they're going to run with it. So I'm sure he has some sort of excuse, well, you got to understand here's what I was doing, here's the thing. But as far as optics goes, this looks like the classic case of insider trading, right? I mean, this is, has insider trading, not even so much insider. He knew this was going down and he just exited.
Starting point is 00:16:12 I mean, he hit the first time, it was the first, it was a high for the year, 41, 94, he sold it, 41, 99, and he just got out. I mean, what, what more could there be other than insider trading here? You know, I got two thoughts on this. got out. I mean, what, what more could there be other than insider trading here? You know, I got two thoughts on this. Number one, like you said, it was predetermined in August that he was going to do this. But number one, I'm suspicious about everything regarding the timing of this announcement politically. All right. When it came out, you know, just conveniently a few days after the election, how it happens to, I helped one individual.
Starting point is 00:16:42 And then, you know, how this breaks that day. But here's the other thought I had when I heard that he made $5 million on this. Wholely. More than five million. He sold a $45. $5.6 million. Yeah, $5.6 million. Holy crap, is he underpaid?
Starting point is 00:16:56 For developing the vaccine that is going to stop a pandemic, he was only making $5 million. Okay, remember when everybody was talking about bill gates, you know, kind of like manipulating this whole thing, wanting to be involved and finding the vaccine to make billions. How do you only make 5.6 million for coming up with the vaccine to stop COVID-19? I think he should have made 10 times that to come out with that vaccine. Yes, yes. You know, hey, look, he did it. He was the first one out to market. There's no way he could be that stupid to come out and, you know, to do anything that could
Starting point is 00:17:29 get him in trouble financially. Yeah. So sometimes these deals, because it sets here, he sold 5.6 million dollars in stock on Monday as part of his predetermined trading plan adopted August 19th. So on August 19th, they didn't know that the market was going to, or Pfizer was going to announce the vaccine on this specific day. So was that a predetermined date that they were going to sell it on this specific day? Or could you have sold it later on? Because if you're optimistic about the fact that the vaccine is going to do very well, isn't it fair to say that Pfizer stock is about
Starting point is 00:18:02 to blow up? Yeah. And if Pfizer stocks about to blow up and go from $4194 a share, which is what he sold, if it's gonna go to $80, that's what, that's $12 million for him. If it goes to $160, that's $24 million for him. Why is he cashin' out of $5.6? Now here's the other thing. It seems very low. Sometimes when you see this, maybe there's a divorce going on
Starting point is 00:18:22 where the wife is forcing to sell shares because you have to pay the other half, but that's not it. This is a predetermined, this has got nothing to do with personal life. This is a contract Monday as part of a predetermined trading plan adopted August 19th. Okay. I got two thoughts on that. Maybe in August, they didn't know they'd be first to get out. Okay.
Starting point is 00:18:39 So that's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. And the other thing too is there might be a bonus for him. If they were first, he gets 10 million new shares, you know, that he can hold on to now and watch the stock price rise. So I'm sure there's some sort of incentive for him as a CEO for them to be first. I tell you, I mean, if you're CEO, think about it, Adam, you're CEO, you're CEO of Pfizer, okay.
Starting point is 00:18:57 And you decided to work with Pfizer because that's great product, blue pills, whatever they got. But let's just say you're a CEO of Pfizer, okay. And you know more than anybody else that your vaccine is about to come out. You know all the testing you've done. You know it's coming out. And you know what kind of a blockbuster announcement
Starting point is 00:19:15 is gonna be if you're gonna be the what? First, Pfizer's gonna be on every single paper, Times, Post, Washington, New York, L.A. Everything is gonna say Pfizer, Pfizer, Pfizer, Pfizer. Pfizer, CO for one day is the most famous man in the world. And one day is the most famous man in the world. You didn't know the name, Albert Borola, as of the day before they announced it.
Starting point is 00:19:35 You didn't know the, no one knew the name, except for the people in the industry knew the name, but most people didn't know the name. You know this is coming up. Aren't you having a conversation with the guys who say, look, can I hang on to my shares? Do I have to sell my shares?
Starting point is 00:19:47 Can I not sell my shares? Can I sit on these shares? Can I just hang tight? Because the scariest thing is when somebody's putting a bet on, when you go through transaction, and let's just say you want to sell something, sometimes the buyer will ask you, do you want to keep some of the shares yourself?
Starting point is 00:20:03 If you say, no, I want to sell 100% of the shares, but I'm really optimistic about this business. Guess what the buyer says? How are you optimistic? But you're going to sell 100%. But if you say, no, I'm cool. I'll, I'll let a roll a little bit. What does the buyer say? Okay, good. He's also vested with us. He got skin in the game. I mean, he's keeping some of it, but wouldn't you keep the shares for another six months? He was going to happen. 62% of a stock. I actually agree with Tom here, 5.6 million. Nothing. I think very low.
Starting point is 00:20:29 Listen, that's why I was like, we made more than five million dollars. Exactly. Well, you got to realize CEOs don't make as much money as you think. Founders do. CEOs not the same as a founder. Especially in Europe. They're not like American CEOs. Unless if you're CEO of Tim Cook, Apple thinks like that, different story.
Starting point is 00:20:41 But, you know, the gravy train is not going to stop for him for a long time. A couple of reasons why. A, you know that when we get the vaccine, we're talking about will you get the shot? It's two shots. All right, it's not just one. You have to go back and do another shot in three weeks. This is a two-part deal. And the other thing too is, I saw a story today where the vaccine, they're hoping is going to last for a year.
Starting point is 00:21:01 So this thing is going to be around for much longer than a year. So Pfizer, if they're the first ones out there, if they can prove this thing and people trust it, they trust this vaccine and it's working and the testing all, all shakes out. I mean, you know, it's going to be raining on him for a very long time. I mean, that, that, you're saying the vaccine is going to only get on last year? Well, more than like, no, no, no, no, no, the vaccine is going to last. Yeah. So then you're going to have to get it again. If just like, the food still out there. 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, 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, phrase, 59 million hits come up. Exactly. That's how many people checked him out after that story broke. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:21:46 So imagine, as of the day prior to that, nobody knew it. Day next are 59 million people. Our research in this guy's name. But that goes back to my initial point. He has to have a story to tell knowing that this is going to be the breaking news that comes out. Yeah, but here's the other thing too. It's brilliant because what are we talking about here?
Starting point is 00:22:00 The election results, something like this, if something nefarious was going on could kind of slide under the cracks a little bit because people are so desperate to find this, this vaccine and have something on the market that's working. And we're talking about Biden versus Trump. I actually, I actually don't know if there's anything nefarious going. I, I'm just thinking myself that this is just a, you know, if, if it's, if it's contracted that you have to sell on that day, he screwed. So if it's something that he had to sell it on that same day,
Starting point is 00:22:28 he's sitting on saying, shit, I wish I could keep this for another three more months or six months, right? So if he couldn't negotiate it, it'd be great. If he couldn't have any sold it, then I don't know if it's a good move or not. So the bottom line is if it's predetermined trading, they say on August 19th, you have to sell on November 10th,
Starting point is 00:22:44 that's the day that you would have to eat, determine trading. So then the big question is, could the announcement have come a day later, or did it come on that date for him to capitalize on a higher 15% raised stock price? Let me tell you, this vaccine takes off for Pfizer, that 41 is going to go to 80 and no time. Guys, don't forget what happened to Zoom. We didn't know about Zoom, but we didn't know about Zoom the way we, and all of a sudden shares went from $60
Starting point is 00:23:08 bucks to $500 and six months. You know what, $60 to $500? That's like saying this, $41 is gonna go to $350 in the next six months. You know what's $350? If this thing goes to $350, that's nearly nine X. You know what's nine X of 5.6 million? That's a $ that's a 50 million
Starting point is 00:23:25 dollar payday. Sure. 45 million dollar payday. He left 40 million on the table. Yeah, I would actually be pissed that I had to sell. That's what I'm saying. If you have to sell some reverse in course on this. This guy should actually probably want to hold on to this. I will see. We'll see. Sixty. Sixty. Sixty. If there is something shady going on, I am sure it's going to come out in the next few days, but if not, man, if it's if it wasn't a contract a little bit of a bad time. It's like a case of reverse insider trading. Yeah. Yeah. I guess it's screwed on it. You say this is, this is called outsider trading. Is that what you call it? All right. Well, he's on the end. So, so let's, let's, let's talk about,
Starting point is 00:23:56 let's talk about California, New York. Let's, let's talk about California, New York, two of the coolest governors we got in America that, you know, the other day, I don't know if you heard what news, not news, some, Cuomo said, Cuomo said, I, if I, if I was in a governor, I'd love to decim in the face. I'd love to, yeah, Cuomo said this about Trump. Cuomo said, what was the country accent? Wait, you didn't see this? No.
Starting point is 00:24:21 Cuomo said, have you seen this or no? See if you can find it. Cuomo punch Trump. Go to YouTube find it. Cuomo punch Trump. Go to YouTube and tap in Cuomo punch Trump. What was that country accent you used for New York? It was like a Buffalo accent. It's definitely not New York. I thought I had like a little Alabama in a truck in a row, make some threats over here. Cuomo punch Trump. Go up. He just made that allegation. This is do do filter filter it out by a week Filter it out by week this week left left left right their week
Starting point is 00:24:55 Let's see blah blah blah blah. Of course Andrew compunsion Trump in a face. Yeah, there you go. I got a reaction Do the do the fifty-three second one and I hope you know Okay, do the fifty-three second one right, reaction to what it said. And then fast forward. That's Thomas who want to end tonight on Andrew Cuomo, the governor of New York, trying to be the most masculine Cuomo on television. He announced he was thinking about punching Donald Trump this year. Sounds pretty tough, right? Punching the president of the United States right in the face. And he would have done it.
Starting point is 00:25:23 If he hadn't inherited his father's job as governor, watch. I needed him to help New York. I didn't Trump. That was my job. If I was a governor of New York, I would have decked a period. I mean, he was attacking me. He was attacking my family. He was anti-Italian.
Starting point is 00:25:42 He was a every nasty thing, you know, you if I take away that word governor for 24 hours, I would have had a field day with him. He's on steroids, look at his face. That's a road rage. Oh my gosh, that's just hilarious. But a part of that to me is New York, the attitude of New York for him to say something like that. I can punch him in the face though New York, for him to say something like that. I can't. You just say he'd punch him in the face though, he say we'd attack them.
Starting point is 00:26:08 What does that mean? You tell me what that mean, put him on a deck and have a cup of coffee. What does that mean to you? It could have been in the chest, it could have been in the nuts, it could have been a kneecap, it could have been in the nuts.
Starting point is 00:26:17 It works. We're not talking about it. We're not talking about it. We're not talking about it. We're not talking about it. We're not talking about it. We're not talking about it. We're not talking about it. We're not talking about it. We're not talking about it. We're not talking about it. We're not talking about it. You are there is a phrase called you're reaching you are fully reaching right now, buddy
Starting point is 00:26:25 What the hell is the I've never seen you know my son say what they punch each other they punch and they aim at one place face face what do you mean I'm gonna kick you in the shin Do you have a problem with him saying no problem No problem with him saying that. I just said way worse than that. I had punch him right in the face. Did I tell you have a problem with him? I know you're protective of your community. Did I say have a problem with that?
Starting point is 00:26:53 I'm just protective of the fighting community. I'm trying to have a UFC go at it. Oh my gosh, I've never heard anybody say deck. He didn't say he's going gonna deck him in the face. Take a bite. I don't, you want a pillow fight? You have to be pillow fight. If somebody says I'm gonna deck him,
Starting point is 00:27:11 all of you in here, what does he mean I'm gonna deck him? Luis, what does deck guess? Does it mean face or shoulder? Eric, honestly. Punch in the face. Punch in the face. I mean, even Norway, what is I'm gonna deck him in? What are you, are you trying to know?
Starting point is 00:27:23 Cause Norway doesn't deck people in the face. Okay, I was expecting him gonna be like I'm right in the kiss something something like straight up in the face This the kind of stuff you say why you're so good community girls. It's coming like that you make that your community gets more loyal to you I wish you would have said something a little more P-Lagor mother like that. I thought I thought I wanted to see some like. I'm just saying the way that we built it up. I thought, oh, should I get about to say something here? I'll deck them off camera off record. I guarantee you he said what you want him to say.
Starting point is 00:27:54 You're not what I want him to say. But by the way, it was going. Here's the craziest thing. Let me take us a crazy thing that many people think I'm crazy for this. I love watching him and his brother on camera together. I can't even tell they're much I love him. I can already see, like, you know, I have a lot of friends who are on all sides politically. I have Muslim friends, got people think I'm Muslim, have the time I have to explain on Instagram, I'm from Iran. Oh, you know, love to the Muslim
Starting point is 00:28:19 community. And I'm like, I'm not Muslim. I hate to disappoint you, but I was born and raising Iran, right? I got people from all sides. Can you imagine Thanksgiving at the Cuomo's? Actually think about that. I actually think Thanksgiving at the Cuomo's would be so entertaining. Keeping everyone talking shit, taking shots. You know, I do do this. You're this fan.
Starting point is 00:28:40 What are you talking about? All you did is being a governor. You're on TV working our day. They're non-stop. Well, the governor had a funny line when he was talking about all his sisters did is being a governor. You're on TV working. How are they? They're nonstop. The governor had a funny line when he was talking about all his sisters and he included Chris into that, right? Did you hear that the other day?
Starting point is 00:28:50 He lumped him into his group of sisters. Did he say? He was, I got all these sisters including Chris. So that was pretty funny. You know, here's the other thing too. Do not bet against the fact that when Donald, if Donald Trump doesn't prevail in this election, which he still might, if he doesn't, if he doesn't, I could see him setting up a pay-per-view
Starting point is 00:29:09 him against Cuomo. I could see the fight. I could see it happening. I was gonna fight. Trump versus Cuomo. Trump will put it on pay-per-view. Cuomo kicked the shit out of that guy. You can't even,
Starting point is 00:29:19 Cuomo, what is it? Disagree. What? He's one of those classic guys, you have any, at any point you can jump off the Trump train No listen, you have any at any point. You can jump off the jump train. Fighting a guy who worked at any point.
Starting point is 00:29:29 You just jumped off. You just jumped off. You just jumped off. He was him, I'm not even being able to get off. You gotta get off and start stepping in the face. You gotta get off and stop. You don't think a height advantage means something in a brawl. Six, four versus five, three.
Starting point is 00:29:41 Look at my type. And five, three, five, five. That guy's at least six foot. You time. I'm all right. Three, three, five, five. He might be five five. That guy's at least six foot. You know what I mean? He's soft. He lives up and where's the capital of New York? Skenectity.
Starting point is 00:29:51 You are so rich. Rochester. It's not even New York City. He's not even the Epic Andrew Andrew. Andrew is a he's five 11. Five 11 six. He's five three and he's he's reaching over here. How do I let you see some of these types?
Starting point is 00:30:02 Chris Cuomo is six too bad. Tucker Carlson six one Cooper's five 10. He's not five 10. I've seen to he there's types. Chris Cuomo is six too, by the way. Tucker Carlson, six one, Cooper is five, 10. He's not five, 10. I've seen, there's no way in the world, Anderson, Cooper is five, 10, Pelosi, five, five, apparently everybody on Google is two inches taller. These are lies across the board. Don Lemon's five, nine. He is not six feet.
Starting point is 00:30:20 Baron Trump, seven, four. This is ridiculous. Who is this guy? That's you, Sainted Buddy. That's my guy. And anyways, let's bother with, if you're watching this, if you're watching this, I guarantee you.
Starting point is 00:30:29 Hang on a second, let's ask. Let's ask. If Trump, Donald Trump, senior, fought, Cuomo, Andrew Cuomo, New York governor, who would win the fight? Thumbs up, Trump wins, thumbs down, Cuomo wins. I'm actually curious. Thumbs up, Trump wins, Cuomo hang on. Yeah. Cuomo wins. I'm actually curious.
Starting point is 00:30:45 Thumbs up. Trump wins. Cuomo hang on. Yeah. Cuomo wins. Now, how will just give the ages? Give the ages. How old is Andrew Cuomo?
Starting point is 00:30:53 Andrew Cuomo, I'm going to say he's probably 65. How old do you think he is? Yeah, he's in his mid to late 60s. He's 62 years old. He's 10 years younger than Trump. He's a better 12 years. 12 years. He's not a good shape.
Starting point is 00:31:03 Trump's 74. He was old. Trump is 74. What does He was a Trump 74. What is Trump's age? 12 years. You know what? We're talking about here. Hey, by the way, before this fight that they have, I would demand a drug test because I guarantee you, he's on droids.
Starting point is 00:31:15 Cuomo, that was a roi. Trump's also on droids. How do you think he beat the COVID so quickly? Are you talking about? Listen, listen, we went from politics to steroids. We've had plenty of steroids conversations. You're talking about decked people on the face, Pat.
Starting point is 00:31:27 Which way would direction we go in here? Listen, decking people into shoulder. It's not a place. They would never deck in a... I'm going to deck you right in your shink app. I'm going to deck you right in your chest, Pat. And not believe. He said he would deck him in his shoulder, not the face.
Starting point is 00:31:42 Listen. Okay, all right. So let's check this out. Trump would pump that fight. You would hype it up. That'd be pretty good. He would hype it up. But it checked us out. By the way, for the right payday,
Starting point is 00:31:50 think he would do it for the right payday. Oh, you can't rule it out. He's gonna owe a couple hundred million bucks when he leaves office. Yeah, he's gonna need the money. Anyways, by the way, I think it would be a terrible fight. I think it would be one of the worst fights of all time
Starting point is 00:32:02 to watch, Chef, it would be a horrible fight. You know, all these like what he called these exhibition fights, they do, they all suck. They're terrible. They're not real fights. That's all with Mike Tyson by the way. 510, 511. Okay. Same height as our guy.
Starting point is 00:32:15 Quoma here. You know, just I've seen Tyson's ties. Do you know what Tyson's ties look like? Yeah, they look like Tyson's Dylan, but David's ties. That's exactly it. Tyson's ties are nuts. You know that that quickness with the you know the the hip flex yeah anyways I let's talk about the thanksgiving so thanksgiving is around the corner folks if you live in New York in California we have to warn
Starting point is 00:32:35 you you have to do thanksgiving right if you live in New York in California so you cannot screw this thing up because people gonna come to your house and some bad things could happen guy do you want to pull up what the guidelines are? For do you have both New York and California? Okay, so you want me to read all of this? I needed like a basic one-pager. So here's Here's I'm still trying to find it buddy. I'm telling you Okay, so I don't have to.
Starting point is 00:33:05 There's a gentleman that's kayed looting over there. Here we go. So this is California or just New York, the first one you're giving me. Okay, California, three household max limit must gather outdoors, social distancing must take place. You must wear masks between bites and drinking less than two hours, no singing or shouting. This is your Thanksgiving in California. Let me read this one more time.
Starting point is 00:33:29 By the way, this is from their website. This is not a joke. When I saw this, I said, it's for sure a joke. Let me read this again. Are you guys hearing this? I'm flabbergasted by this. So you can have a maximum three household maximum limit, okay? Must gather.
Starting point is 00:33:45 That includes your house limits. You can only have two house limits. So you bring your mom, dad, kids, that's it. Two more. I can have two more of those. Must gather outdoors, not indoor. Social distancing must take place. You must wear masks in between bites and drinking less than two hours as what you can spend
Starting point is 00:34:07 on with your family. Look at the look on your face. No singing or shouting. What do you mean? No singing or shouting. Can you control F to see if that is BS that is not right there? Rules were singing, chanting, shouting, outdoor gathering, singing, chanting, shouting, and physical exertion significantly increases the risk of COVID-19 transmission because these activities increase a release of respiratory droplets and fine aerosols into the air because of this singing, chanting,
Starting point is 00:34:35 and shouting are strongly discouraged. But if they all occur, the following rules and recommendations apply. All people are singing or chanting, should wear a mask, covering at all times while singing or chanting, including anyone who is leading a song or chant, hence they're talking about the church. Because these activities pose a very high risk of COVID-19 transmission phase. What coverings are essential to reduce the spread of respiratory droplets
Starting point is 00:34:55 and aerosol. I mean, this has got to be pathetic, right? That's California. So let me get your reaction for some California. Go ahead. Go ahead. Okay. By the way, playing of wind instruments is strongly discouraged. Okay. Go back to the desk. It's like you're a mad jazz flute aficionado. Yeah, it's flute. Hey, here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:35:11 You know, listen, this is funny to a point, but these are actual elected officials who spent a great deal of time on this. I'm petrified for the future of California and New York and I am not joking. These people will suddenly, like little surgeons, little psychosurgeons, is all they are. One step at a time, normalize it. Oh, we're not going to let you sing. Oh, you know, take it by the stuffing, put your mask back on. Choo quietly. Don't sing. Don't go to church. These guys are serious about jacking all our freedoms. And that's not a conspiracy theory. If they went through that much time to write in that great of detail, they're sick people.
Starting point is 00:35:52 There's something wrong with that. I mean, it's so anti-American on every single level and it speaks to fear and it speaks to panic and it speaks to, we know what's best for you. Let us protect you every second of the day. These are your people, Tom, in California. These are your people. How do you live there? How do you live there?
Starting point is 00:36:09 I don't know. I don't know. You live there for how long? Six years? When are you getting out of there, man? Enough's enough. It's unbelievable. It truly is unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:36:17 The other day. I'm serious. I mean, I'm being serious. Like, when is enough enough that you're gonna leave it? Well, I think we've hit that point. So you're out. Well, look, I'm not here to make any big announcements, but I mean, how much more can you take?
Starting point is 00:36:27 I'm not asking you. I can't take anymore. The other day, I mean, you guys saw this, that one city council member in Los Angeles wants to turn the LA Convention Center, right next to the Staples Center, into a homeless shelter. By the way, there's no showers,
Starting point is 00:36:41 there's limited bathrooms. When there's no, by the way, every day at the Convention center is booked for the next five years. How are you just going to truck all the homeless, could you imagine what they would do to the convention center? It would be destroyed. It would be done.
Starting point is 00:36:55 Garcetti says, I need a little bit more data on this, but I think for the time being, we'll keep them in four star hotels. You know, because they do take over hotels and just move them right in. Sick. You know, it's on believe, same thing in New York. Moving to California. Why would you want to leave California? You're going to free hotel.
Starting point is 00:37:08 Want it. These things are obviously a fricking joke. These rules. This is not a joke. But I wish it was a joke. I get that. I get that. The fact that they're trying to enforce these rules are the joke.
Starting point is 00:37:19 I look at this two different ways. Number one, who's actually going to follow this? This is birthday. No, no, no, no, some people will. There are Californians out will. I look at this as one, who's actually gonna follow this? This is birthday, no, no singing on my birthday. Some people will. There are Californians that will. I look at this as. Not about who's gonna follow it.
Starting point is 00:37:29 That's not the point who's gonna follow it. Yeah, I look at this as they have to put something out, right? Like they can't just be blind to the fact. Now, how are they gonna enforce this? Are the, you know, Thanksgiving police gonna be knocking down your door? Like the Gestapo being like, whoa, how many households we got here? Did I see someone singing? Oh, take that stuffing out of your mouth,
Starting point is 00:37:48 put a mask on. I don't think they're gonna, tell me how they're gonna enforce this. I don't think that's even a possibility. The way I look at it is they're probably saying, we gotta do something. We gotta say something. This is a super extreme, I agree.
Starting point is 00:38:02 But they can't just be blind to the fact that- Here's what you say, be careful. Be smart. That is the sense. Be careful. But in, you know, government legislative terms, they, it's absurd. No doubt. So however, they need to say something. Tucker Carlson was on with Adam Kroll and they said, if the police show up, just say you're staging a rally and that's perfectly fine. Peacefully protesting in the back. You're peacefully protesting. That's if it's 20 degrees in New York on Thanksgiving, you got to be outside. That's California.
Starting point is 00:38:31 What you just saw right there is California. They're talking about California specifically. I'm going to give you New York guidelines right now. But that's all you think about. That's all you think about. You just think about that's that's it. No, I give you two sides of the coin there that it's absurd, but they have to say something. Let me tell you what's what is absurd
Starting point is 00:38:46 if they enforce this. Right now, you just wanna put a guideline fine. If you enforce this and there's video footage, game over, you're gonna see some crazy stuff happening in California. If they enforce it, I pray that they're bright enough and have enough social intelligence, EQ, emotional intelligence to not go enforces because if they do, the amount of fire they're
Starting point is 00:39:13 going to get from people from this is going to be absolute insane in the state of California. Totally agree with that. Here's what Cuomo said. My personal advice is the best way to say I love you. This Thanksgiving, the best way to say I'm thankful for you is to say I love you so much. I'm best way to say, I'm thankful for you is to say, I love you so much, I'm thankful for you,
Starting point is 00:39:27 that I don't want to endanger you, and I don't want to endanger our family, and I don't want to endanger our friends, so we'll celebrate virtually, he added. But this is my personal opinion, which is fine, he can have an opinion. It's not a law, it's a law speaking deck,
Starting point is 00:39:42 the guy that decks people on the shoulder. Tyson, deck people on the shoulder, that's that the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, the law, law, the law, the law, law, the law, the law, the law, law, the law, the law, law, the is not a ban. And their current guidelines that they gave, 10 people curfew, 10 PM curfew for all bars, restaurants, gyms, and liquor stores, 10 PM, curfew. Curbside pickup or delivery, okay. No alcohol to go, indoor and outdoor gatherings at private residences limited to 10 people.
Starting point is 00:40:19 So New York's given a specific number, it's 10 people. California is saying three households, including yours, which they're really saying 12 people. Got four times three. So that's New York. What do you think about that? I think Newson is seriously, he has mental issues. I mean, the level of detail that was on that California list, the New York list was a little bit more practical. I mean, it had some level of sanity built into it. What's the point of, I mean, at least their gyms are open, at least gyms
Starting point is 00:40:45 are open in New York, they're not even open in California, at least they can stay at a gym till 10 o'clock or go to a bar till 10 o'clock. We can't even do that in California. You talk about enforcing the laws, Manhattan Beach, there's every weekend, the yellow windbreakers are out on every street corner in downtown. If you don't have your mask up over your nose, they've got clipboards, they're yelling at you. They are moderately enforcing. Now, there's no way you can go into people's homes. I mean, there might be a stand your ground situation if they try to do that. But it's just, it's the thing that really kills me is each week there's something new. And they keep talking about COVID cases. And all I can say is I have a different mentality when it comes to it.
Starting point is 00:41:21 I believe that we need to do whatever we can to protect the people that are most vulnerable, but everybody else just be smart and have some common sense. My wife's entire family tested positive for COVID and they're all fine. They all were ready to go after a couple two or three days. They live in Missouri, don't worry. Um, you know, and then you hear about all these athletes, you know, that test positive in their back plane in a week or less than that. So the hysteria has gotten so out of control. Now they're using the holiday. Wait till Christmas rules come out. I mean, agree.
Starting point is 00:41:51 This is absurd. I don't think there's any way that they can enforce it. I totally agree that it's laughable. It's laughable. It's laughable. But let's just look at some of the other stuff that's out there. I get it. 10 million COVID cases.
Starting point is 00:42:03 We've just crossed 10 million in the United States. These are facts. Really proud to say here in Texas, we are leading the way here, baby, one million cases, cross in Texas. We're number one. If you ain't first, you're last, we had to go Texas. The whole protecting people, yes.
Starting point is 00:42:22 I think we can all agree, young, healthy, vibrant people are not the ones that are at risk. But the concern is you show up, you want to give grandma a kiss. It's Thanksgiving, you start singing La La Sais Bumba, boom, grandma dies. That's what people are concerned about. La La Sais Bumba. Yeah, I mean, that's a Thanksgiving song around my house, you know what I'm saying? Point is, it's not so much the young people,
Starting point is 00:42:45 the coy loodies of the world, there's crew over here, but they show up, they come home for Thanksgiving, they see their family, they grieve grandma kiss, now you're going to grandma's funeral. That's the concern. Is that immediate kiss death burial? I mean, move on. Yeah, I mean, not immediate,
Starting point is 00:43:02 but I mean, are we gonna play the game that old people aren't dying here? But why can't we? We're gonna play that game right now? No, not playing. Yeah, I mean, not immediate, but I mean, are we, are we going to play the game that old people aren't dying? But why can't I know? No, not playing that a game at all, but the, why can't we determine whether a gram actually come over for just or not? Why do we, you want to cut your grandma, Tom, go ahead. I'm just letting you know that's the concern. Like as much as I think that these rules are a freaking joke and there's no way to enforce
Starting point is 00:43:22 them and it is absurd and laughable. We're having a nice chocolate about it. I get it. COVID's real. 10 million cases. Million in Texas where we are. And they need to have some sort of guidelines. By the way, let me tell you one thing.
Starting point is 00:43:34 Let me tell you one thing that when you say Texas has the most cases. I called Ricky and I said, Ricky, go get your COVID test, you and your wife. No. Okay. I call Ricky. Ricky says, let me find one. I said, dude, go get your COVID test, you and your wife. No. Okay. I call Ricky. Ricky says, let me find one.
Starting point is 00:43:47 I said, dude, let me just tell you where we go. There's one pretty much. There's 15 places within a five mile radius so I can go take the COVID test. He calls on his pet. There's none. So what are you talking about? He says, there's none. I said, Ricky, go find, I'm getting upset at this point.
Starting point is 00:44:01 I'd recommend Ricky. I'm thinking he's not being resourceful. He's just kind of doesn't want to go take it. He says, Pat, I'm telling you there is not. That's a Ricky. Find a place. There's got to be one. Do you know Ricky and his wife had to drive three hours
Starting point is 00:44:14 to the closest place to get COVID tested? I believe it. In California, Bakersfield. In California. Yes. I tell you a minute, sir. No, no, but the point is, California hasn't made it as easy to take Texas. Texas has. Texas has made so easy. So, no, but the point is, California hasn't made it as easy to take Texas.
Starting point is 00:44:25 Texas has. Texas has made so easy. So you want to go get the bro. Over here, every time, yesterday, one of our guys, their kids in school, something happened. One kid had a temperature, 101, you know what I'm talking about, I'm talking.
Starting point is 00:44:38 He had 101 degree temperature. Kid was at 103.5 this morning. He's doing better now. But they took a ride off the bat to get the kid tested. You know how long of a driver was for five minutes. When got tested, negative came back home. California, they don't have them everywhere. So as much as people say, Texas is leading the way. Yeah, Texas has also made it accessible. Not all states have made it as accessible as easy to go take the test as Texas has. Texas has no property going and taking the test. So question free.
Starting point is 00:45:05 But they go out and say, okay, says cases. Yeah, because Texas has done a phenomenal, nobody gives the credit to say great job to Texas for making it very easy to go get tested. A lot of states are like, I probably just have a flu. I don't need to go get tested. You may have had COVID, nobody knew about it because you didn't go get tested.
Starting point is 00:45:22 And Texas, you're gonna know because at least you have it available because the state like Texas wants to make it available because you didn't go get tested. In Texas, you're gonna know, because at least you have it available, because the state like Texas wants to make it available for you, but they get shafted every time they do some like this and they get the black ass. So, the same thing, nationality, with the numbers up.
Starting point is 00:45:33 If they're so precautionary in California, I mean, you live in California, you got a lot of people there, you obviously your whole family's there. Why are they so measured, precautionary rules, regulations, and they don't have testing? You know, you know, accessibility. How big is Baker's field?
Starting point is 00:45:49 Can you go to Baker's field, Kai? I think the population here is still the 60. It's a function that Ricky lives in. I don't know the Baker's field population. What's Baker's field population? Baker's field population right there should come up 2020, 390, current county, go current county, current county, KERN county, KERN county. Good luck, well, not bad guy. KERN, no, he'll get this current county. There you go. He's
Starting point is 00:46:09 improving a lot by the way, 912, 912,000. That's the 11 largest county in California. Almost a million people. And he had to go to Glendale to get COVID tested. What the hell are we talking about? So is that a function of California? Is that a function of the governor? Is that a function of current county? What is that? I put it all on California. You got an 11th largest county, you making that difficult for me to get tested. It's 275 a pop that the insurance pays for, right? You just go and say,
Starting point is 00:46:32 I have the symptoms, you take it, insurance pays for the 275, you got tested. How do you not have it in a county that's the 11 largest county in California? How you make it so difficult? And the places you go to, guess what they say? We have COVID testing, but you don't get the results for 14 days.
Starting point is 00:46:45 14 days. It's you go to CVS, oh, we do, I did a COVID test them for CVS. I did it twice. You know how long it took for me to get my results. 20 minutes. No, no, CVS 17 days. Oh, wow. I went to the local.
Starting point is 00:46:58 Here a little off. By the way, what do you call these places? What do you call these ER places that they have? Origin, origin, origin. No, no, you know which ones I'm talking. You see all over Texas. Plastic surgery. I wouldn't call these ER places that they have. Origin, origin, origin, origin. No, no, you know which ones I'm talking about. You see all over Texas. Plastic surgery place. No, no, no, they have that as well.
Starting point is 00:47:08 But the ER place right here, three hours. Just wanna let you know, negative. So every time I'm getting tested because they want me to get tested regularly, you're negative, you're negative. Three hours. So why is there such a disparancy in three hours in certain places and three weeks in other places?
Starting point is 00:47:23 I don't know, I couldn't tell you. I am not the governor of California. I have no desire to be the governor of California, but they can do things to improve the testing. And they're not. And governor Abbey gets a lot of credit. No wonder NASDAQ is looking to move in their headquarters over here.
Starting point is 00:47:37 Oh, great segue. Because Texas attracts businesses. Mosques looking to come back here with bigger projects. You know, Rogan just moved over here from California and now you got Governor Abbott, shout out to Governor Abbott, low-key guy. You know, he's not a big social media guy. He's not a big person on social, but he welcomes stock exchanges to Austin. Texas Governor Abbott will on November 200 host representative from the US, major US stock exchanges, where the deal will relocate
Starting point is 00:48:08 Their data centers from New Jersey to the Lone Star State Amid the threat of higher taxes. Love these higher taxes. You know what you vote for? You lose businesses the coalition to prevent the taxing of retirement savings consisting of exchanges operating and Trading platforms including New York Stock Exchange owner Intercontinental Exchange and NASDAQ are exploring their options. As New Jersey Governor Phil Murray Waze a proposed 0.25% tax per financial transaction, per financial transaction on firms that process,
Starting point is 00:48:37 at least 10,000 electronic trades, each year housing, data warehouses, and Jersey gift financial firms in no advantage, other than just being a stone, stone throw away from Wall Street. Yeah, I mean, who needs to pay attention here? Obviously, our good friend Mike Tyson slash Andrew Cuomo, Phil Murphy, De Blasio, our friend Corey Booker, good friend of the show. You know, test me, bro, as we said before, you know, they could make a power move and be in Texas at no time.
Starting point is 00:49:11 I mean, you did this yourself. I mean, you're a case example right here. California was testing you, testing you, testing you, and you said, you know what, enough enough? I can't be there for you. I got a move. Tom, and you know, he just announced that he's going to be moving California pretty soon. He's going to make an announcement.
Starting point is 00:49:24 Hopefully he stays in the USA. I know there was a concern, but I want you to stay. that he's going to be moving California pretty soon. He's going to make an announcement. Hopefully he stays in the USA. I know that was a concern, but I want you to stay. We all want you to stay, Tom. But at what point do you have to just say, fuck it, I'm out. I'm just going to repeat what I say pretty much every time on this podcast. How are we become so stupid as a country? I mean, there are governors that are just smarter, that are just doing it better.
Starting point is 00:49:39 DeSantis in Florida, your guy here in Texas. Also, keep in mind, these two states don't have state income taxes, and they still have a find a way to make the state thrive and do well and attract other businesses. I hope NASDAQ moves. I was shocked to learn that New Jersey is the one capitalizing on all the tax money
Starting point is 00:49:57 on these transactions on Wall Street. Are you kidding me? Did you know that? I mean, you think of Wall Street, you think New York City, but New Jersey. And so it makes total sense. I hope one of them, because it's going to break the dam. If a big, high profile, iconic brand company institution, something like NASDAQ, we're
Starting point is 00:50:16 to actually move to Texas. Everybody would think it's okay. And then it's going to, then you're going to see some real issues for these states like California, like New York, and especially with a president who is in lockstep with these governors to just do whatever they can to make your life miserable. If you just want to go about, you know, trying to bring back the glory days of 2019. Doesn't that seem like a long time ago now?
Starting point is 00:50:41 Yeah. We're just to be clear, these are the data centers or data centers, not the actual exchanges. So they could be anywhere for that matter. It's just, it's where they're housing. Yeah, but you gotta realize, I mean, you are making it seem like it's not really a big deal. I'm not, that's not what I'm saying. That's not what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:50:56 The data centers that are paying a quarter of a percent per financial transaction average in 10,000, a minimum of 10,000 electronic trades each year. So this data center is the one that you want to be over here. You want the data center in Texas. Definitely, you know, you're not about playing that.
Starting point is 00:51:11 I'm just saying, it's not like the NASDAQ is physically moving in Texas. No, no, no, no, but your stock exchange isn't physically moving in Texas. Exactly, where the cost is it's moving in Texas, which is what Abbott wants. Good for Abbott for doing that. I applaud him respect.
Starting point is 00:51:24 By the way, if you guys are following this right now and watching this and you heard this whole segment, we went through California against New York. California's guidelines are you can't have more than three household gatherings at the house, no singing, no chanting. You have to wear a mask in the outdoors. You can't even have the Thanksgiving at your house.
Starting point is 00:51:41 You have to be outdoor and between bites and drinks, you have to put a mask on if you're not. How many of you that are watching this, if you were living in California or New York are going to follow the guidelines that the state says. If the answer is yes, put thumbs down, right? They're push that thumbs down button. If you're saying, hell, no, I would not follow the guidelines.
Starting point is 00:52:04 I'm still gonna have a happy Thanksgiving. I just may not invite my grandmother to say, stay home to be safe. Press the subscribe button. If there's no way in the world, you would entertain any of these guidelines. You're still gonna have it. I'm actually curious right now.
Starting point is 00:52:16 We're showing 23 thumbs down. We're showing 30,200 subs. Let's see what this goes to. Let's see what people are gonna say about this. Go ahead. I have a different question for you because obviously I think we can know where our answers are going here. And I'm on the side of thumbs up for sure. You asked this question before. I think it's a good question to pose again. Better state for entrepreneurs.
Starting point is 00:52:37 Better, where would you rather be in New York or California? You posed that question at one point. Did you not? The results came in. I think tied. Did they not? They did. Yes, they did. Has that changed it on you for the weather? If they were that similar, right? They did. They can't believe it or not, I would take New York or California. You want me to tell you why? Exactly. I tell you why. Because I don't think, to me, it has nothing to do with weather. Of course, I love the weather in California. Of course, my families in California, of course, all of that stuff. I think people are starting to realize how I'm wired. It's very simple for me.
Starting point is 00:53:09 My wiring, my family took them a while to understand this. I go where my values and principles are protected the most. California, my values and principles are not protected. New York is more lenient than California. Believe it or not. California on the taxes list is the 58 worse in America. Texas is 42nd. For higher energy. Period. Taxis period. California is 58 worse. New York is 42nd worse. And you're even seeing the way Cuomo says it. Cuomo says, what? Here's my opinion.
Starting point is 00:53:43 This is what I think you should do. He's not enforcing. Newsom is saying, here's what we're gonna do. It's a big difference in spirit. Garcetti is demanding. Not a fan of the Blasio at all. I think Garcetti and the Blasio are twins. They're very, very similar. One who maybe seven, four and the other guy is five, 10,
Starting point is 00:53:58 but they pretty much are twins. But I think Cuomo has a little bit more appreciation for his billionaires, his entrepreneurs, his job creators than Newsom does. I think Cuomo has a little bit more appreciation for his billionaires, his entrepreneurs, his job creators than Newsom does. I think Cuomo understands business model. Obviously, you have, by the way, Hollywood liberals in California that are obviously very outspoken. I mean, these are, you know, your people's.
Starting point is 00:54:17 How do you literally write down on paper that take a bite of food and put your mask on? It just, it just, it defies common sense. It's just so weird to think that you could be that's, that weird. Yeah, that's, to write that down. That's crazy. So your vote is for New York, your vote, you're staying in California. Well, I say they're both completely in the toilet. So I'll take the better weather. Yeah. Guys, I'm going to take Florida on this one. I'm just, you catch me there in South Beach. I'll be around there. So you gave me two options. You fool. I got you. Manipulated on you. You decked a shoulder. You decked a shoulder.
Starting point is 00:54:45 I'll deck you right there. Every single shoulder. I'm gonna say it's guys about you. I'll teach you in the shoulder. I'm telling you, that's it. You got it. I'm a deck you. Put your shoulder out there next time.
Starting point is 00:54:53 I'm a deck you. Let's look at some stats here. Let's look at some stats here. Let's talk about voting. I did a video years ago. Now, I want you guys to watch this and be very transparent about what I think. You may say Pat, fully extreme.
Starting point is 00:55:07 This degree all you want, I won't be offended by it. I was 35 when I shot this and I was fully, my mind hasn't changed much based on that when you see it. It's very extreme. I'm tense, very extreme. But you have to watch the whole thing for you to be able to say, I'm excited.
Starting point is 00:55:21 But before we get into it, before we get into it, I wanna set into it, I want to set this up. Let me give you some of the ages that we have in America on what you can do, age, like what age you need to be to do different things. You want to be a president? How old you need to be? 35.
Starting point is 00:55:34 You want to be a VP? 35. Senator, 30. Congressman, 25. We just had the youngest Congressman ever, by the way. House of Representative, I'm sorry, 25. We just had the youngest, by the way, just so you know,, I'm sorry, 25. We just had the youngest by the way, just so you know, we broke the record.
Starting point is 00:55:47 The youngest just won. Have you seen this young kid? Good looking guy. Have you seen this kid? Young kid. Put, type it in youngest house of representative. I think he's 28, maybe 27, type it in. He broke a record.
Starting point is 00:56:00 No, it's not a... He beat AOC. Yeah, he beat AOC. It's a good looking 25 uh, uh, uh, uh, 25 years, that's what it's like. That's the one 25 years old, uh, uh, uh, right there. They're doing the wheelchair. Yes, they're doing a wheelchair.
Starting point is 00:56:13 Young is 25 year old. North Carolina represented a Republican Madison. Can 25 year old congratulations to him in the wheelchair. To, uh, uh, what's his name? I want to give a proper shout out. Madison, Madison, call,
Starting point is 00:56:24 call, thorn, props to you, brother, Madison, call Thorne. If you know him, send him this message, this video here. So 25 years old, okay. Sexual consent.
Starting point is 00:56:35 Watch this. How? What was that? What was that first one? Sexual consent. Okay, got you. Let's go to sexual consent. This is the one that fully flabbergasted everybody in this room.
Starting point is 00:56:47 Okay. At a 50 states, when you think about the right A to consent age to have sex, the legal age to have sex, what number do we think about? I guess 16, 18, something like that. I think about 18. I've never thought about 16. You guys think about 16? Luis, what do you think about?
Starting point is 00:57:04 18? 18. What do you think about? 18. I've never thought about 16. You guys think about 16? Luis, what do you think about? 18? What do you think about? 18. 16. 16. 16. You think about 16 too. Both of you aren't just 16.
Starting point is 00:57:12 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, no, no, no, no, no, no, What do you think about? I know, just. In Norway, it's always been 16. Norway's always been 16. Okay, so check this out. If you didn't know, now you're gonna know. Can you pull up the states on what age you have to be to have legal sex without getting a Rex arrested? Check this out. Of course, he's almost saying. Okay, watch this, watch this.
Starting point is 00:57:38 Go up a little bit. All of these states, Alabama's 16, so is Alaska, Arizona's 18, Arkansas's 16. California 18, Colorado's 17. Connecticut's 16, meaning a 50 year old can have sex with a 16 year old and you are not going to get arrested. Whoa, were you getting the 50 year old thing? Right there in, what do you call it? In, uh, uh, as close in, close in age, exception, is that exemption? Is that what I would say? Exemption. Yes, exemption. Colorado's 17,, Delaware 18, DC 16, DC, all the politicians 16. Florida 18. Good for you guys. Florida does it right. 18 Georgia 16, Hawaii 16, Idaho
Starting point is 00:58:16 18, Illinois 17, Indiana 16, Iowa 16, Kansas 16, Kentucky 16, Louisville. Are you noticing 80% is 16 main 16 Maryland 16 Massachusetts Michigan Minnesota 16 Missouri 17 Montana Nebraska Nevada 16 New Hampshire 16 Jersey 16 New Mexico New York 17 Carolina 16 Dakota 18 Ohio Oklahoma 16 Oregon 18 I would think Oregon would have been like 15 Pennsylvania 16 Rhode Island 16 Island 16, South Carolina, Dakota 16, Tennessee 18, good for them. Texas 17. Utah 18 from month 16, Virginia 18, Washington 16, West Virginia 16, Wisconsin 18, Wyoming seven. Interesting here. West Virginia 16, but 15 if it's your sister. So what a go with your sister, okay. So, so, so the legal age to have sex, 80% of the state is 16.
Starting point is 00:59:09 Some of the other ones is 18. Okay. Next, criminal responsibility. Okay. Criminal responsibility. State by state, 33 states said no minimum age of criminal responsibility for federal crimes, the minimum age of criminal responsibility is 11.
Starting point is 00:59:23 Driving 14 to 16 years old, you can drive with a permit, 16 to 17 restricted license, 18 unrestricted, which by the way, you said it earlier today. Are you comfortable with 16 year olds driving a car? I don't know. I know what I did. The moment I passed my driver's license, I know exactly what I did that minute when I got the car. When I think of how difficult it is to drive and everything you have to know, 16 is too young.
Starting point is 00:59:46 Okay, so that can be debated but it's 16 gambling, 21, drinking, 21, working, 16, 17, marriage, 18, Nebraska's 19, Mississippi's 21, meaning in Mississippi you can't be married. 21 years old. Yeah, Mississippi, Nebraska's 19, we're learning stuff. Retirement, 62 to 67, leaving school, 16 to 19 you can choose to leave stuff. Retirement 62 to 67 leaving school 16 to 19
Starting point is 01:00:07 You can choose to leave. I don't want to go to school anymore. Mom. I'm dropping out Smoking they changed it Eric was devastated smoking 21 cigarettes and weed is 21. You ready? Voting is what 18? Let me get this straight You mean to tell me I'm not allowed to drink until I'm 21 years old. I am not allowed to smoke weed or cigarettes until I'm 21 years old. I'm not allowed. I'm not allowed to gamble until I'm 21 years old. But I'm allowed to vote at 18. Or you're allowed to die for your country at 18 and serve in the army or the military.
Starting point is 01:00:41 It's absolutely pathetic to me. If you think about it, it's absolutely pathetic to me. When you think about it, I think the voting system needs to be changed. My opinion, I've been saying this for a long time. Now, I'm not a, I'm not a, I wasn't born here. I'm from Iran. I came over here, complete different perspective I have. But I shot this video six years ago.
Starting point is 01:01:03 To be exact, the date, if you pull it up, guys, so we can pull up the video date, it is April 15, 2014, which is what? I look like I'm smoking weed right there. I'm like, ha ha ha ha ha do you have it on 1.5 speed? By the way, I don't, people are voting less than 2,000, they're presidential election.
Starting point is 01:01:27 We had 61.6% of eligible voters show up. And in 2012, we had 58.2% show up, which is dropped by roughly 3%. And the subject of voting keeps coming up and I said, we need to do an episode on it and put some ideas together. And I'll put these ideas for a while but I'll present it to you because,
Starting point is 01:01:40 look, we've had a lot of people that are fat, very hard with us to get African-American with civil rights to be able to vote or women's rights. We've come along such a long way, but I think we can't even improve it even more today than before. So let me get right into it. Let me get right into it. The program I'm going to be talking to you about is called earning the right to vote, earning the right to vote. The reason why it's called earning the right to vote, I'm an immigrant. I came here from Iran to America. America was willing to open the doors and
Starting point is 01:01:59 allow our family to come here and Iran we didn't have freedom of religion, freedom of assembly, freedom of speech, freedom of many, many things for Yennepriced. And so in America, they offered that to us. But I didn't come and feel an entitled to all of it. I felt as an immigrant, I had to give back and earn the freedom that America gave me. So the program's called earning the right to vote. First one, point number one.
Starting point is 01:02:13 If you paid $8,000 in income taxes, the prior year, you get one vote. So what if somebody pays $10,000 in income taxes? You get 10 votes. What if somebody pays $100,000 in income taxes? You get 100 votes. Well, you may say, Pat, that's not fair. The people who pay more taxes get more votes.
Starting point is 01:02:26 I simply took the system on how public corporations or companies who have outstanding shareholders and outstanding shares on the system they use. This is how it works. The company could have one million outstanding shares, but only 100 people own the 100, one million outstanding shares. And the way they allow to vote is not based on the 100 shareholders. If one person owns only one share, versus a person owns a hundred thousand shares, which one has more to say more of a voice for this company. Obviously, the person that has 100,000 shares. And I feel our voting system should be the same exact way you can create this society. No, you ought to have more of a voice on one of these.
Starting point is 01:02:56 That's going to get interesting. You're going to get interested in somebody who does not. And if you want to have more of a voice, you ought to pay a little bit more to the income taxes. That's my idea on point number one. And it would be a salary cap with a hundred shares, a hundred votes. So you can't go above a hundred votes. Kind of like how NFL has a income taxes. That's my the on point number one. And it would be a salary cap with 100 shares. 100 votes. You can't go above 100 votes. Kind of like how NFL has a salary cap. That's the way we'll play at 100 votes. And the age part with this, it has nothing to do
Starting point is 01:03:10 with 18 years old, 21 years old, 25 years old, 30 years old. If a 16 year old kid who worked at basketball and he made $15,000 and he paid $2,000 in income taxes, he ought to have two votes. Yes, you do. 23 year old kid was completely healthy, not disabled. Doesn't want to get a job. Okay, well at basketball college, I would rather hear from the 16 year old kid whose pain in come taxes and contributing to society
Starting point is 01:03:28 than a 23 year old kid that is undecided wants to stay home, family, pay for all his bills, he doesn't want to give back to society. I'd rather hear from the 16 year old. Point number two of the ideas I have in place. If you serve the military, whether you pay any taxes or not, you get a vote. But you need to complete boot camp and AIT, advanced individual training. I think military is a good thing for a lot of our younger boys to go into because a discipline teaches us a lot about independence, toughness, fights, freedom, on, or a lot of good things. I think it'll do a lot of our younger boys to go into because it disciplines Em teachers us a lot about independence toughness fights freedom on a lot of good things I think it'll do a lot of good things for the country period But if somebody in a military paid $15,000 in taxes he would get 15 votes because
Starting point is 01:03:52 Because If somebody meant to the military didn't pay any taxes you're still getting one vote because you serve the military point number three public service police officers Firefighter, you went off the D-Saw if you're. You're the next one. Listen to that. Listen to that. They put their lives on the line, similar to military. If you're willing to put your life on the line and go fight fires while your wife is at home wondering what's going to happen to you. You got two little ones. You want to put your life on the line for me. I mean, you have more than earned the right to vote.
Starting point is 01:04:13 Same with police officers. And so you get an additional vote if you are serving for public service and putting your life on the line. You absolutely get the right to vote as well because of what you're doing. Number four, job creators, nonprofit or profit. If you create a job that pays a hundred and twenty thousand dollars Over a four-year period income So if you hired somebody and they make forty thousand dollars you under with you for three years you paid them a hundred twenty thousand dollars You get one vote per job you created for our economy one vote per job you created for the economy and the limit on that is
Starting point is 01:04:40 Also 100 votes you created a hundred jobs you have a hundred votes to to vote for any kind of things that would come in that way. Point number five. We can't say that it's over $10,000 in life taxes. They automatically get to vote because they've already put into the economy, they've put into the marketplace, they've put into our country, the country to society, so they get a vote no matter what, the number is $10,000. Number six, anyone with a four-year degree, whether you have paid into taxes or not, if you're willing to stay disciplined, go to school, get educated, you ought to get a vote. And for a master's degree, two votes, and for PhD-3 votes.
Starting point is 01:05:04 So if you have a bachelor's, if you have a master's, any have PhD, you ought to be able to have three votes because you have disappointed in such a young, unfinished education, more than some of the rest of us. And we want to hear from you more because you want to put your head down and read the books and educate yourself. I think we need more people to go out and educate them, so like a people stay disciplined to get to four-year degree,
Starting point is 01:05:17 eight-year degree, and their PhDs. And obviously, this whole thing would be a meeting to have an ID to go out there and look, but we know who you are. Kading time there. Seven years, you're voting it. This is how it could look like. If somebody made $60 out there and vote. But we know we need more time there. Seven years ago, and we're voting it. This is how it could look like. If somebody made $60,000 last year, they paid $10,000 in taxes. That's 10 votes.
Starting point is 01:05:30 If that person also has a bachelor's degree, enum masters degree, they get two additional votes. If they served in a military before that's an additional vote, that person could have realistically 13 votes to vote for an election because of how much they've contributed to society. But this is the disclaimer at the end. What it has to do with illegal immigrants because we have this whole debate with Amnesty and I've been interviewed on this board. you're about to like this so many times people So they ran across the border and we need to do this and we need to do that honestly
Starting point is 01:05:50 If I'm a father and if I'm living in a country where I see it's not the best thing for my kids or fights you What's taking place in Iran or Mexico or any of that stuff? And I got a problem. I'm responsible for my kid I would go across the border to come to America to provide a better life for my kids Wouldn't you think about that? I would too much if you look at immigration the whole purpose of immigration is to bring the best talent in the world to our country. We are leading in immigration because the best talent from China, from Europe, from everywhere, they are still wanting to come to America. It's not as ahead of a lead as we used to have at one point.
Starting point is 01:06:13 Right now, it's dropped a little bit, but we bring the best talent. So we have 11.7 million illegal immigrants living in America, roughly 400 thousand, then we deported last year. And out of that 11.7 million of illegal immigrants, they paid a little shy of $11 billion in taxes last year. So what do we do with the folks who are illegal immigrants living in America? This is my opinion.
Starting point is 01:06:27 This is my ideas. I think if one is an illegal immigrant, but they did any one of these things we talked about. If they went out there and they actually paid $1,000 in income tax, if it's on a tax ID number, if they went out there and actually served the military, or willing to serve the military, if they're willing to go out there and serve the military,
Starting point is 01:06:38 they're willing to become cops, police officers, they're qualified, they're willing to go out and create jobs. They're willing to go out there and get a degree and get educated. If they're willing to do these things, I say we need to allow and give them the right to go out there and and take a quiz because they need to take a test to know the history of America, the president and certain things that they need to know about. But I think their votes out account as well. For what they do to society to play a very, very important role. There's no reason why we should not have illegal immigrants. Being able to vote as well. There are more people that are illegal immigrants that are contributing more to society than somebody with a- Surprise you a little bit, huh? Why not let them be heard as well if they're willing to earn the right to vote
Starting point is 01:07:08 by contributing to society? So what we did is, we went to the streets and we went on a couple of college campuses you'll see a logo and one of the college campuses. You don't need to listen to all of them. And watch the first one. The second guy will shout you. Some of the subjects such as voting and politics.
Starting point is 01:07:16 And here's some of the answers we got. All right, so first question is, how would you improve the current voting system the United States? I was gonna say maybe more parties, but probably complicated things. It'll take too long probably for things. What I would do is make the vote that the people put when they go to the booth and vote.
Starting point is 01:07:29 They got the one that counts. Not the one that takes place behind closed doors when it goes back to new offices. In the end, it's just popular about what really matters is the electoral vote. Shout out to Mario, doing the interviews, by the way. Different areas. Encourage more people to vote. I would make it more convenient for people to vote. By decreasing the super PACs, probably better informed people.
Starting point is 01:07:44 By the way, he went to UCLA campus. I know that. Like people like me don't really want to, they're too lazy or they don't know how to, even though it's really easy. For there to be better access to voting booths. As far as politically, you know, we got the Republicans, the Democrats.
Starting point is 01:07:56 You can pause it at this point. You can pause it at this point. Okay, by the way, I hope you don't get flagged for using the video of the team if I'm from six and a half years ago. I hope these guys are not going to come after us. So tell me about this guy. Stop.
Starting point is 01:08:06 Yeah. The level of detail is staggering. Staggering. Here's my first thought. We have poll workers who can't count to one. How are they going to count to 33? No, but there's some great points in there. It clearly shows that we just witnessed it.
Starting point is 01:08:20 Things are messed up. I think there has to be some sort of changes. When TikTok can help decide elections and influence people to the level that they do. And these kids are armed with votes and maybe not armed with the knowledge that they might need. Something is a skew. And the only way anything would ever happen is the party in power found a way that it benefited them. Then they would then make it happen. But how long did it take you to come up with that formula? Were you working on it for a long time?
Starting point is 01:08:50 Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. By the way, I've been talking about that since I was 30 years old, but I've never put in video. I've been talking about, if you work closely with me, they tell you, Pat's crazy ideas. That I've proposed to our guys for a long time. I think every single thing about a company, like to say, I don't like something Starbucks does. Who the hell am I
Starting point is 01:09:08 to tell Starbucks what to do if I don't know, share the company? If I own more shares, I should have more say. If I don't, I shouldn't. What's the difference between that and America? But in America, it's like, no, even the person that doesn't own shares of Starbucks who doesn't contribute or do anything should have say, no,'t you should have any say in it in a household if you're not paying rent for the house I'm living in you got three roommates Adam you've ever had roommates yes if you got three roommates you ever had a roommate that never paid a bill or never paid anything living with you yeah do they have any say in how for you to bring in groceries of the day not paying the utilities they not the hell they still living with you.
Starting point is 01:09:46 If they're not, will you let them say anything about how you should shift the way you put set up your house or apartment? Good, good analogy. You would never let anybody tell you what to do. Who the hell are you to say anything? All I'm saying is let's pay some taxes. Why don't you go pay some taxes? Skin in the game.
Starting point is 01:10:02 So it is. Have some skin in the game. Go pay your taxes and then say, what's total sense? What about for me? What about a mandatory age for you? Where are you at as far as voting? I could care less about age. I really could care less about age because to me,
Starting point is 01:10:13 it's not about age. I know 16 year old kids. I'm being dead serious with. I know 16 year old kids more responsible than 30 year old kids. This kid came over here from Columbia. Sam came here from Columbia at 14 years old. His father is father passed away. He comes to Columbia, independent,
Starting point is 01:10:28 who's paid your bills the last seven years? Who has paid your bills the last seven years? That guy should have had a vote since he was 15 years old if he paid into taxes. Well, according to your plan, he'd have 12. What I'm trying to say to you is I don't care about age. I care about you paying taxes. The pain of paying taxes, you ought to have a voice.
Starting point is 01:10:46 Democrat, Republican, independent, I could care less. But now you have skin in a game. Not in a game. Not in a game. Not in a game. Not in a game. Not in a game. Not in a game.
Starting point is 01:10:56 Not in a game. Not in a game. Not in a game. Not in a game. Not in a game. Not in a game. Not in a game. Not in a game.
Starting point is 01:11:04 Not in a game. Not in a game. Not in a game. Not in a game. Not in a game. Not and a game, dude, it's firefighters. We sit and we see firefighters with things just a regular, I one time got into a market, I remember this Kevin Pearson guy years ago, a few years ago, he's gonna be shell shock, I remember his name, because I was like 17 years ago. And I went through the market of firefighters for a span of six months. I worked with these firefighters, and what's a bunch of these guys all studs.
Starting point is 01:11:18 You know how many of them went through a divorce? Every one of them had a divorce. It's a rough life. It's tough for personal life. It's tough for parenting. They go through challenges. They lose friends. They burn legs, body parts, come in home.
Starting point is 01:11:30 These are not easy jobs. Everything with Tomah Bashankops, you go talk to a wife and a son who lost their dad on a frontline doing the work. They got shot. They got, then go ask him what it feels like to be a cop. You think that kid wishes his dad wasn't a cop? That kid wishes his dad had a regular job
Starting point is 01:11:45 working on staples or a different place. These people, these are the right to have. So for me, it's not about just taxes. It's about earning the right to vote. So you can have say, if you're looting, if you're going out there, fooling around, ruin what this great nation is all about, you should have zero say, zero vote, nothing nothing if you're not contributing to the society zero.
Starting point is 01:12:07 I mean, I mean the level of time and effort that you do to even come up with this completely wild and outlandish plan is actually incredible. It gives us some deep insight into your mind. I mean obviously obviously, it's very complicated. We don't know how many votes certain person can get. I mean, is it fair to say that that's not getting implemented anytime soon? However, I do with amazing level of respect,
Starting point is 01:12:39 the fact that you care that much to take the, because that wasn't easy to come up with. I mean, how much man hours it took you to come up with that? That's what we need more. People who care that much say, and this is what it needs to be, I'm not even talking about left, right, center, I'm just talking about you care that much.
Starting point is 01:12:56 This is what it means to be an immigrant from Iran to do you have no voice there when you can earn your voice, go to the army, become a businessman, become an entrepreneur? You know, one thing that I'm happy to see, I mean, to that, we just had the highest voter turnout since 1900 in America. So whatever you want to say about, you know.
Starting point is 01:13:18 We would not have had the highest turnout since 1900 if we had to check everyone's ID. There's no way in the world to swit them in the highest. You realize, no way in the world, this would them in the highest, if we all had to see the ID. Zero chance. That's what you think it came down to. No, no, no, no, I don't think that's what it came down to. It's absolute math. It's not maybe. It's not 99% accurate statement I'm making. This is 100% statement I'm making. If we had to check,
Starting point is 01:13:47 100% of everyone's IDs who voted, we wouldn't have had this many votes. So how do you vote without ID? How mail imbalance? What do you mean? That's just how you don't have to have a night. No, you just drop it. What do you mean?
Starting point is 01:13:58 You just drop, how'd you do it? I mean, that had my name on the ballot. They have barcode. Yeah, but did you show your ID or no? I had a mail-in ballot, no. So you didn't show it. So how did they know you sent it and nobody knows? Somebody else could have sent it in. And you're saying you have to show up with it.
Starting point is 01:14:08 There is no way in the world. Listen, a decision, this big, a decision, you know what this would do, this system. Look, a lot of people are saying, I'm conservative. I absolutely disagree with Pat. I love that. Some people are saying screw the snowflakes, fine. Some people are saying, I'm a conservative Fine. Some people are saying I'm a conservative,
Starting point is 01:14:26 I partially agree with some of them. Some people are saying I 100% agree with Pat. The whole point is, I don't care whether you agree or not. Start the damn conversation. I don't care if you agree and you want to break the whole thing down, go do it. Start the conversation.
Starting point is 01:14:39 There's no way, and by the way, Adam, for yourself, you know a lot of people would see a program like this and you know what they would say? They would say it's so extreme. But you know what's crazy? That's exactly how they lived their lives. Let me say this one more time. A lot of people would see this thing here
Starting point is 01:14:55 and say it's extreme, but that is exactly how they raised their kids. That's exactly how they lived their lives. You and I just talked about somebody in your life where you said, you know, they had their kids when they were younger, right? And he said, are they still married? He said, no, because the father wasn't working, right?
Starting point is 01:15:10 He wasn't working, man, whatever. You said that real briefly, okay. He didn't have skin in a game. What do you think your responsibility is? And the mother had to choose to go find another man who was willing to work. Of course, that's the skin in a game. When a woman leaves a man, why does a woman leave a man?
Starting point is 01:15:25 How many times you hear a story about a woman leaving a man because he can't make money? How many times you find out a man leaves a woman because he just doesn't like the way she treats him or she takes care of the kids? Everyone's got to have a skin in a game. Kids got to have a skin in a game. Family's got to have a skin in a game.
Starting point is 01:15:39 Friends got to have skin in a game. Do you think you would have friends without a skin in a game? I guarantee you wouldn't have friends with skin in a game. If you would have friends without a skin in again? I guarantee you wouldn't have friends with skin in the game. If you had friends that you wanted a bar with and every, I had a friend of mine, very interesting. I'm the guy that likes to pay.
Starting point is 01:15:52 I like to pay. I enjoy paying. Whatever you want to call it, I enjoy paying. I like going out, I like to pay. But if I go and I sense that somebody is taking advantage of that, you will probably not go out with me ever again. That'll be the last time. If I get a feeling that you're just thinking
Starting point is 01:16:10 because I have money and you want me to pay every time, we're done. It's not gonna happen again. Well hang out, you ain't going out with me again, because I know you're thinking I should take the feeling because I have money. I don't play that game. Because everybody ought to have a skin in the game. This is not a radical idea. People live this life, voting why scares the shit out of them in case if we go in this direction, which that part
Starting point is 01:16:30 I understand because a lot of people will lose their votes. Yeah, and the people that conceivably could be in power here very, very shortly. This is the last thing they'd want because this worked out very well for them how it just happened. And to think that we're not even seriously considering changing, you know, how this voting is going. So how many votes would you have in the P.B.D. voter system? How many votes would you have? I don't care to have a record breaking voter.
Starting point is 01:16:53 I'm not asking that. You know how many people I care to vote? I'm asking how many votes would you have personally? No, he's saying in your formula. I don't know. I have no idea. I'd be limited at 100 because I'd reach my limit. I wouldn't have more than 100 votes. listen if I pay 50 million dollars in taxes
Starting point is 01:17:07 I'm not getting 50 million votes. I'm only getting a hundred votes So there's a cap at a hundred So there's no abuse so a billionaire cannot say I got 17 million votes No, you don't you only have a hundred million hundred votes But I would want you to max out your votes go get to hundred votes Mm-hmm I would encourage you to go get your hundred votes go Go become a 100 vote person, so you can say, my vote is 100 votes.
Starting point is 01:17:27 Have pride in it. I'm a 100 vote person. I voted. Then people will say, damn. They'd have to print a lot of secrets. Then we would recognize you in America. I would say, where the shirt that says, I had 100 votes.
Starting point is 01:17:39 People are gonna say, that's guy guy's a 100 club. Damn. Adam's part of the 100 club. Legit. Oh, good for you. Now the person says 10 votes. Good for you, bro. 10 guy's a hundred club. Damn, Adam's part of the hundred club. Legit, dog, good for you. Now the person says 10 votes. Good for you bro, 10 votes. Now four votes, how'd you have four votes?
Starting point is 01:17:50 I got my PhD phenomenon and I got this, okay, phenomenon man, congratulations to you. It becomes a real recognition. How many of you know, I just voted. Why do you think the vote doesn't matter to them? Cause you didn't earn the right to vote. You just got voted because you hated somebody. It's not how voting should be.
Starting point is 01:18:03 Voting should be great, freaking job. And good for you. And if people take some pride in voting, they could also lose the right, right? Didn't you say by riding and things like that, you could lose votes? Yeah. Interesting, amazing thought formula here. By the way, if you're watching this, if you're watching this and you guys are saying it's lagging, YouTube had problems yesterday, lagging.
Starting point is 01:18:24 They do today as well, they had issues, our T1 line is solid, right? And everything is solid on our side right now. YouTube had a lot of issues yesterday, can go on Twitter and see their account on what they said, they're doing the same thing again today. But those of you guys that are still with us, great, if you missed any part of it,
Starting point is 01:18:39 we'll repost this as well, short, to look for you to see, we have the recording, right? So we can post a recording for them to see without any glitches, all that stuff. Okay, thank you for your patience. But watch this. I'm curious. If you listen to what I pitched right now, what ideas? And you agreed with 80% of what I have to say, push the thumbs up button. If you didn't, put the thumbs down button. If you have opinions that you want to share with me personally, send me an email.
Starting point is 01:19:05 I want to hear from you. Actually, send me an email specific. And let me know what's going on with some of the ideas I said. Because again, going back to it to me, you don't trust me to drink until I'm 21. You don't trust me to smoke weed or cigarettes until I'm 21. You don't trust me to gamble until I'm 21. But you trust me to vote at 18, having never paid any taxes,
Starting point is 01:19:28 and I have the right to vote problematic. We shouldn't celebrate that record-breaking people turn out to vote. That's no celebration. We should celebrate a record-breaking amount of people pay taxes. We should celebrate a record-breaking amount of people created a job. We should celebrate a record-breaking amount of people created a job. We should celebrate a record-breaking amount of people serve the military. We should celebrate a record-breaking amount of people
Starting point is 01:19:50 winning a bachelor's degree. We should celebrate a record-breaking amount of people that became cops and firefighters. We should celebrate service, service, service, service. That's what we should celebrate. The more we celebrate that, guess how everybody thinks at that point, service. The basic what we should celebrate. The more we celebrate that, guess how everybody thinks at that point. Service. The basic thing about how you teach dogs is what?
Starting point is 01:20:10 Dog pees outside. What do you do? You give him a treat. Good job, buddy. Awesome job. Come here. Here's a treat. Phrenomenal job. Dog goes and does everything you ask him to do. You give him a treat. When we become kids, what do parents do with us? Good job, buddy. You did your chores. Great job. You can watch some TV, you can play some video games, right? Whatever we incentivize, kids, adults in America,
Starting point is 01:20:31 they're gonna do that the rest of their lives. If you incentivize me sitting home and collecting checks, I'm gonna be doing that. If you want me to just stay home and in California, you're gonna put me at a four-star hotel? You said, wow, four-star hotel, really? Why would I wanna be homeless? You're incentivizing God.
Starting point is 01:20:46 It's pathetic that this is even have to be explained. The concept that this has to be explained is what's really pathetic about it. The idea that this is somehow a controversial concept is what's pathetic about it. If we got a country, give us 10 million people, give us a country the size of, I don't know, give us a land the size of Texas, give us a country the size of, I don't know, give us a land the size of Texas.
Starting point is 01:21:07 Give us a country the size of Florida. Give us 20 years. Look what happened to our country. Let me say this more or time. If we had a country where we set up the guidelines, our constitution, our values and principles, based on the way we want to do it, give us 20 years and see what would happen. We'd be the hub of innovation around the world. We'd be the hub of the best talents around the world.
Starting point is 01:21:27 We would create and solve every problem in the world if we had the right values and principles that we could create. Not this nonsense stuff to try to please everybody. Yeah, and we're just at the beginning of a four-year cycle of it. It's kind of sad. Let me ask you, Pat. Yeah. Again, Kudo, shout out to the even your train of thought here, but we talked about 16 and 18 year olds, you know, drink and smoke and voting, driving, all that.
Starting point is 01:21:52 You know, I would say 90 plus percent of high school students, 16, 17, 18 are just in school. They're not working. They're not working at Basque and Robbins. The majority, right? I mean, obviously some kids are working and doing like little part-time jobs, not paying much in taxes is my point.
Starting point is 01:22:10 Fair point? Sure. Okay. The question I have is, doesn't that sort of disincentivize them, meaning they have not paid any taxes? They're 18 years old. So the next time that they'd be able to vote is at age 22.
Starting point is 01:22:24 So now you have a, you know, a six year span, four to six year span of our youngest minds, our high school students, our college students. I'm not talking about whether they're liberal, conservative. Yeah. That's, you know, five plus years of them being completely disengaged in politics. Yeah. Isn't that sort of, no, you know what it does. Here's what it does. It makes it that much more special when you get the right to vote. You celebrate that much more when it's not a handout. You celebrate the vote. A father takes a son and saying,
Starting point is 01:22:52 I'm so proud of my son, he earned the vote. A mother takes her daughter and her son saying, I'm so proud of my kids, they earned the right to vote today and it's emotional. Parents cry, kids will cry. I earned this vote versus, here, here's who I'm going to vote for because somebody in school hates such and such. I'm going to vote for the other guy. That's what I'm going to vote for. You think they vote logically? Do you think 18 years
Starting point is 01:23:15 are going to vote logically? You really think 18 years old's world logic? No, but hey, okay. I, again, I love your idea here, but here's another problem. Yeah. You're 18. You still haven't paid anything in taxes. Yeah. You go, go to college. Okay. You're 18, you still haven't paid anything in taxes. Yeah. You go to college. Okay. You're taking out student loan debt. I mean, your daughter just graduated from college, right? Peppered. I assume she has not had a job per se.
Starting point is 01:23:34 So you go to college, you're there for four years. You still have not paid any taxes. You've taken on debt. Now you're 22. Well, you know what, fucking, I want to get my masters. I want to go get my doctorate. Get it. Now you're going to school for another two years, two years.
Starting point is 01:23:46 Two years. So now you have a lot of 25 year olds who have still never voted. Didn't you get it that a bachelor's degree gets a vote? Yeah, but until you're 25, you know, a bachelor's degree takes 22. What are you talking about? So once you're 22, you get one vote. So that's the thing. You got it, of course.
Starting point is 01:24:02 I don't care if you've ever picked actions. That's millions and millions of people that don't get to vote until their age Twenty-two, but they don't I was paying taxes at 16 years old What age did you pay taxes for some you ever pay taxes? Yeah, probably 18. I don't know. Okay. Yeah, you earned your vote You're a thousand dollars in taxes. That's it. Okay, you earned your vote I'm proud of you you earned your vote. We ought to be proud of our 16, 17, 18 year old kids who earned. We ought to celebrate people earning their vote. Let me say this. It's a celebration. It's a recognition. It's a milestone. A man, a woman, she'd have on the wall in my lifetime, I've had 13,000 votes, in my lifetime, I've had 628 votes, it's a celebration.
Starting point is 01:24:49 Okay. Last year I had 62 votes, you're a shareholder. I own a piece of America. I'm proud to be American. I love this country, I have skin in a game. I'm with you. The reason I have so many questions on this isn't because I'm like, well, I think this, I,
Starting point is 01:25:01 I know, I know you're that. It's because it's such a fascinating idea. It's such a fascinating school of thought, such a fascinating way that even think about it, that I'm asking these questions because I'm thinking, hmm, well, what about this? What about that? Because it's sparking some things that are going on in the air. So, Ticard Truth says, yeah, let's ruin democracy, Pat. Great. Go more. Go deeper into it. Tell me what you mean by that. Voting should be based on meritocracy. 16 years well, Raul Castillo, Raul Calito,
Starting point is 01:25:28 are you paying taxes? I pay taxes at 13 years old. Had a work permit to work as a minor Patrick Keeler. I have no problem with the age paying taxes. I could care less about the age. I care about the habits. So can you vote at age 13? I don't.
Starting point is 01:25:43 I don't. Adam, could you vote at age 13? I don't. I don't. Adam, could you vote at age 13? I could because a 13 year will understand the pain of pain taxes. I wouldn't care if a 13 year of voted. They paid into the system. If you're 12 years old, you own a share of a company. I don't care if you own a share of a company. You have say, what do you want to vote for? You have say, to me, you know how they say, the brain is not fully functioned until you 25 years old. You've heard the same before. Yeah. Tell them say it happens in 30 some say it's 25 years old. That's why even a Rogan says he doesn't believe Kitcho Smok. He says you shouldn't smoke. We don't tell after 30. What a point. Don't smoke. We don't
Starting point is 01:26:15 tell you that's a 30 years old. So ridiculous. But no, it's not about so ridiculous. What he's trying to say is he needs to start smoking. We don't tell later on in life. He was not a smoke or early on. He started later on. So it's a lot gone down a dirty path. It's a logical processing to say brain being formed. But if you're 14 years old and you've already experienced what it's like to pay taxes, you've had the pain of being independent. Listen, I trust you more than a 25 year old that's got a silver spoon in his mouth. Never had a job.
Starting point is 01:26:41 It's a schlep sleep on on everyone. Friends couch and bitches and complaints about mommy and daddy. And the fact that he wants another thousand dollars from his rich dad. Yeah. That guy shouldn't have a say. Where does this factor into bloated government and big government? Because this ain't an easy system. There's going to have to be the most ridiculous in-depth system to count the votes. You did pay this taxes and you got your doctor and you got 13 votes. But then you failed the class and the next thing you know, you got to, you know, go back to school and you only get 14 vote. Like, it could get, it's a failed the class. And then next thing you know, you got to, you know, go back to school. You only get 14 vote.
Starting point is 01:27:05 Like it could get it's a slippery slope here. Again, I commend the thought process here. It's ridiculous. It's absurd to see your brain in action. It's just there's a lot of money. Johnny, Johnny just paid five bucks. He says, by the way, some of you guys paid 20 bucks, 15 bucks, 10 bucks. I saw it.
Starting point is 01:27:18 I'm trying to catch up to you. PbD's on the roll. I'm 100% in. Tell me where your new test country is. Erica Wid a Meyer. Man, I wanna recognize the other guys, we didn't catch you, but we will next time. Love the idea of Johnny Van Johnson,
Starting point is 01:27:33 but voter fraud would be even worse if votes weren't correlated to population 101. I don't think so, I disagree. I think it'd be a lot easier to do that because it's data. It's data. If you have the data to show you work, you have it. If I can show my tax here so much I paid it, I arrest would know how much I paid in taxes. It's data. It's automatic
Starting point is 01:27:51 data. All of that, it's trackable. See, it's easy to track who's a shareholder. That's not hard to do. It's easy to track who's giving their opinions on a shareholder call because you know who it's a document that everybody has who's a shareholder. At the end of the year, the government could print out a system to say, this year, this is how many votes you get, Adam, who do you want to vote for? And there's people that just say,
Starting point is 01:28:13 you know what, I got 100 votes, I've qualified, but I'm not gonna vote for it. That's okay. Don't you think there's people's, there's just two different types of people in this country, people that want to be, feel they should be incentivized to do things that you've earned the right to do something like vote and everything else and everybody else that thinks that,
Starting point is 01:28:27 hey, it's my privilege, it's my ride, I can do whatever I want, I can do that. Look at California, they spend way more time trying to figure out what you can do in between bites of a Thanksgiving dinner than something practical like this. And there's no way that there's any, the sad thing is there's no way for any hope for this because the Democrats would never want something like this. How do you count dead people then? You know, let's get all the, the kids come in and they're devote that don't even know what they're doing.
Starting point is 01:28:51 Yeah. No, this, the chance of just so you guys know, I'm not pitching this to see that this is going to be passing the next couple of years. The chances of this passing, the chances of this passing is more likely in a different country than in America. The chances of this. They would call in a different country than in America. The chances of this passing. They would call you a racist for even coming up with the idea of love. I would love to debate anybody who calls me a racist.
Starting point is 01:29:11 I'd have such a fun time with them if they call me a racist. What country could you see this happening? Any country that wants to compete with America because America is getting so soft that, look, here's how competition works. Let me tell you how competition works. Competition works. The moment you notice a nation getting arrogant, be ready.
Starting point is 01:29:27 The moment a nation gets arrogant, be ready. Be ready. It's interesting times coming around the corner. The moment you get arrogant, cocky, and sports, and business, what do arrogant people do? They no longer wake up at the same time. They no longer have the same fire, the urge. You know, I'm interviewing a guy yesterday, he says,
Starting point is 01:29:47 uh, uh, what's gonna make you more fired up today because you have more money today than before. How is that fire still gonna be? I said, you don't know who I am. I'm more fired up today than I've ever been in my life. And you guys both know who I'm talking about, our buddy here. I said, I have more fire on my belly today than I've ever had in my 42.
Starting point is 01:30:04 I'm more fired up today than I was at 23 years old. Then I was 25 years old. I'm so fired up. So it's, you got 100 votes now. You know, you get, I've had 100 votes since I was 26 years old. I've had 100 votes for a long time. My 100 votes is not a recent thing.
Starting point is 01:30:18 You said, you look like a million dollars, what I tell you. I've looked like a million dollars since I was 27, 28. This is not about looking like it. This is about knowing and thinking like it. This is logical reasoning. You don't have to agree with it. I'm not telling you this is gonna pass.
Starting point is 01:30:32 I'm not telling you, you know, the chance, I can't even run for office, I can't run for press, I can't run for it, I'm not born here. But all I'm saying is if a country took this idea and their foundation from the beginning is like this, that's a dangerous country. Everybody would wake up saying, I can't wait to earn my vote.
Starting point is 01:30:48 And I wish he had the choice to go to a country like that. I wish there was something in balance. And when you get a chance to vote in your country. You're paying taxes? Yeah. Yes, you do. Fear of felon. Yes, you do.
Starting point is 01:30:59 You know why? Okay. Can a felon own a share of Apple? Yeah, of course. Of course. I don't care if you're a felon. You get to vote. Because you're skin in a game. Yeah. I don't care about felons. I don't care about, to me, it's skin in the game. You pay taxes. You're a felon. Totally understand. You screwed up. Hey, bad for you should have never done
Starting point is 01:31:17 that. But you came out, you got a job, you paid $3,000 in taxes. You have a vote. 100%. Color doesn't matter, discrimination doesn't matter. I don't care what color you are, what nationality are, what religion you are, I could care less. That's your choice. Atheist agnostic Christian seven day Catholic doesn't matter. Height, any of that stuff doesn't matter.
Starting point is 01:31:39 To your think, you contribute, you get to vote. Okay, Paul Nieto III. I like it. It goes in a way of what Socrates said and more with not only a knowledgeable voter, but service or helping community as well. Now we have people voting because Cardi B said to vote for Biden. That's pathetic.
Starting point is 01:31:57 It's true, Paul Nieto. It's 100% true. He's right. So, and it would, you know. That's that WAP vote. Check this out. Let's go into the conversation I was having with you guys yesterday about the guy that I talked to,
Starting point is 01:32:08 uh, Papa Papa Papa, what's this guy? I'm in actually, I'm in actually, I'm in actually, I'm in actually, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm Schweitzer is. Kyle, you want to pull up on Google who Peter Schweitzer is. Peter Schweitzer is, there you go, Peter Schweitzer, he is the former William J. Casey research at fellow at Stanford University Hoover Institution. Okay, Peter Schweitzer. He's written a lot of books, go to Amazon so we can show the books. He's written a lot of, just typing right there, Amazon on the bottom, right there. Third one is him.
Starting point is 01:32:43 There you go, you can do that as well. So he's written a lot of books. Now, obviously it's one side that he wrote Clinton Cash, which affected the last election. And that book, I don't know how many thousands of views, reviews, that affected Clinton because everybody talked about Clinton Cash. Profiles in corruption, he breaks down everybody,
Starting point is 01:33:01 left, right, middle, everybody, McConnell family, everybody. And the reason one is secret and parts. I asked him a question yesterday. I think we were having this conversation. And I said, I want to bring it up today. The question was, who are the most powerful organizations or individuals in America today? And before you guys answer it,
Starting point is 01:33:19 I actually want to hear from you as well that you're watching this. And I want you to rank this. So hear me out when I'm saying this because I want to hear you rank as well that you're watching this and I want you to rank this. So hear me out when I'm saying this because I want to hear you rank these in the comments section, okay? So Adam, if you're ready, Kai, I want to hear from you as well.
Starting point is 01:33:32 You were in it so you can't play along, Luis. I want you to think about the answers here as well. Eric YouTube. I forgot, it's that matters. Yeah, I'll tell you right now. You told me. I asked him a question. I said, who are the most powerful people in America today?
Starting point is 01:33:44 I said number one, the president of the United States. Okay. I just said, not in a list. I'm just saying. One is President of the United States. Second one is billionaires. Third is universities. Fourth is social media companies.
Starting point is 01:34:02 Fifth is mainstream media. Who's the most powerful? Let me read it again. Presidents, billionaires, universities, social media companies, or mainstream media. Once again, presidents, billionaires, social media companies, universities, or mainstream media. From first to last, who do you say is the most powerful
Starting point is 01:34:26 to the least powerful? His answer was shocking and I agree with him. First to last, who would you say? I'm gonna step out because I know the answer because I was in the meeting, but I'll have some comments later. Okay, you go ahead. Who's from the most powerful to the least powerful?
Starting point is 01:34:37 Most, I have just off the top of my head here, most powerful right now in America, our social media company. Okay, so social media for you is a top. I would put number two media. For some reason, I feel like the president, according to this list, would be last, although I would disagree with that. And I got billionaires in universities coming in at three and four.
Starting point is 01:35:10 And you got billionaires, third, you got billionaires, third, university, third. Okay. University, third, fourth. And then president last. Yeah. Okay. Presidents last. What do you say? Luis, who's the most powerful?
Starting point is 01:35:25 Eric, who's the most powerful? So I'm kind of going that way, but I'm going to flip the one and two. Let's do media. Mainstream media first, then social media. All right. Cool. I like that. Eric, what do you say?
Starting point is 01:35:38 I think it's social media, then it's media, then it's universities, and it's billionaires, and then there's the president. So you guys are identical the two of your identical Kai Who do you have and he's a conservative? I say Universities are social media first then universities Then media then billionaires than the president hang on so social media first then universities Mainstream media then mainstream media
Starting point is 01:36:03 A billionaires and then President. Okay, so here's what he said. Okay, here's what he said. And we got a lot of different people here, you know, energized with Andre's royal family. Ryan Lynn says MSM, social billions, college presidents, that's his, so MSM's first, then social media companies, then billionaires, then college universities,
Starting point is 01:36:19 then presidents for Ryan Lynn. Wang Guzman put social media and billionaires are the same thing to him. Okay, Ron Harris says illuminati. Great, we went to a complete different direction there, but okay, I'm gonna give you a shout out. All right, so here we go, here's what he said. Number one at the top, social media companies.
Starting point is 01:36:34 Okay. Most powerful. Most powerful. Zuck is the most powerful non-allecting official. In the world, in the world. Not just not elected, if he's the most powerful in the world. Wow. Zuck is the most powerful.
Starting point is 01:36:45 If he ran for office, he dictates everything. He is the most, so he said socialist first. He said universities are second. He said presidents, Congress, third is what he put. Fourth, he put mainstream media, fifth, he put billionaires. He says billionaires are irrelevant today. He says no one cares if you're a billionaire.
Starting point is 01:37:06 There's so many of them. Billionaires don't matter. They used to 30 years ago, but they don't do today. There's a lot of billionaires. If I read the Forbes 2004, you would know 80% of the names if I read the names to you. So social, universities, president, MSM, then billionaires. Thoughts. Thoughts number one, then billionaires thoughts.
Starting point is 01:37:25 Thoughts number one, what a scary list. It's completely horrifying and I'll tell you why because you look at number one and number two and you could put media at number three, mainstream media if you wanted to. Three of the five, 60% don't entertain other thoughts than their own. They will shut you down if you have a conflicting opinion than them on social media and don't think they don't know their power either. They know exactly how powerful they are. They just showed it. Um, and the other thing, universities as number two, if that's what he says, that's scary too, because they're not allowing any other
Starting point is 01:37:58 thought in liberal arts universities, you are not allowed to have a conflicting opinion of it. And if you look at the numbers of people that professors in college, it's like 35 to one when it comes to a conservative versus a liberal. 13 to one. 13 to one Washington Times. Okay. And not only that, but they're militant. They won't just, hey, I disagree with you. I respect your thought or something like that. They they will shut you down. They will attack you. So to me, this is a very, very frightening thing and they're only getting more powerful. Yeah. Adam. Yeah, I think we all agreed that social media was number one, especially these days. I mean, we're seeing, you know, in Congress just last week, who got who had to show up, Zuck, Jack Dorsey looking like ZZ tops.
Starting point is 01:38:43 How do we say the CEO of Google's name? How do we say his name? Anyone, anyone, anyone? Sundar Pinchai. Thank you for that Kai, our, our, our 22 year old who's able to vote these days. Uh, social media number one, I think, you know, that's a scary situation. Universities number two, why are universities number two, you think? Because they're training the next crop of people that are coming out to believe what percentage
Starting point is 01:39:08 of Americans go to university, 25% of that. The ones that are the cultural elites that end up on the coast that dictate everything that's going on in this country. We got a point. It's the people that end up, I mean, think about it. Right now, the ticket to getting a nice job is through what, a degree. So if you get a nice degree, it is changing, but it's been like this for a while. Universities as of right now has extreme
Starting point is 01:39:29 in front of all of that. Oh, we say that it's the universities or the products of the universities, meaning like you go to Harvard, you become a, you know, no, it's the universities. What they're training you, the culture. I'm sure that's what it meant. It's a cultural thing with professors. What they're doing. You're saying it's a teacher. The professor. Yes. I mean, where are you going, though? It's not, well, you never, what is a university? It's the professor. Like, you know, you are going to be taught by a professor on whatever he or she thinks. Well, these days online, it's hard to get influence as much. And then what president was number three? President was number three. Where was number three? Where was president, you know, 50 years ago? Number one? For part of first place. Number
Starting point is 01:40:02 one. Yeah. And he lumped Congress into that. And number three. Yeah, he said Congress. He specifically said Congress on president. Well, thank God that, you know, 50 years ago, number one. For power for his place. Number one. And he lumped Congress into that. And number three. Yeah, he said Congress. He specifically said Congress on president. Well, thank God that, you know, the president doesn't have ultimate say, you know, Congress is there. But the point is, the point is, the president is no longer the most powerful man on the planet.
Starting point is 01:40:15 It's no longer. That's no longer the case. Guys, Twitter is censoring the president. Think about what I just said right there. Twitter censors the president. Twitter dictates what the president can say and not say. Who has the power? President.
Starting point is 01:40:28 President can't tell Twitter, hey, show what I have to say. That is, you're right there, you realize who really has the power. It ain't no president. And to even document that more, when the president can actually showcase the power he has, it's through social media.
Starting point is 01:40:43 I mean, that's where Trump has his most power when he's communicating to his base through social media, which even further illustrates how powerful it is. People are saying audio is lagging like crazy. What's the story? They're saying audio is lagging like crazy. Is it matching with the video or no? Is it a little bit of lag? That's what they're saying.
Starting point is 01:41:01 But anyways, okay, let's continue. So, interesting take. Can you pull up what Biden's campus saying they're gonna do when they become president with COVID-19? I don't know if you got that article or not. This is pretty interesting because this is what they're considering doing. The moment Biden takes office,
Starting point is 01:41:18 their recommendation is, I don't know if you have it, I emailed it to you. I emailed it to chai.viatim.com. It is something I sent you, Kai. I don't know if you're seeing it or no. I have it right here. If I can send this to you, it's on daily wire or CMBC. If you go to CMBC, type in Biden COVID advisor says.
Starting point is 01:41:41 Biden COVID advisor says. COVID advisor says. COVID, advisor says, yeah, there you go, go to that, right there, first one, good. Biden, COVID, advisor says US lockdown of four to six week could control pandemic and revive the economy. Okay, go a little higher, let's read this. Dr. Michael Austrohome, which by the way, if you guys don't know who he is, he was the first guy
Starting point is 01:42:03 that came out on Joe Rogan, he got like 20 million views. Coronavirus advisory president like Joe Biden, a said a nationwide lockdown would help bring the virus under control in the US. He said the government could borrow enough money to pay for a package that would never cover lost income for individuals and government during a shutdown. We could really watch ourselves cruising into the vaccine availability in the first and second quarter of next year while bringing back the economy long before that. Go a little higher to see if there's anything else below. Go a little higher to see if there's
Starting point is 01:42:33 no Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery,
Starting point is 01:42:41 Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. Montgomery, Dr. That's something that's what they're saying to do. Yeah. Well, I mean, sometimes I'm going to play devil's advocate here. The COVID is back. We've been saying that it's not been gone. No, meaning it was it was going down over the summer. Boom, they've been saying it once the fall and the cooler weather happens.
Starting point is 01:43:00 COVID's back. I mean, Trump's been saying we're rounding the curve, we're rounding the curve all over the campaign. In my opinion, that swung a lot of voters being like, dude, we're talking about where numbers are going up. What I assume they're thinking is sometimes you need to take two steps back in order to take a hundred steps forward. Yeah. So if I don't think anybody wants a lockdown, anyone who's like, yay, a lockdown, yay, more masks, yay, awesome, the economy. But this just comes down to numbers. If it's going to cost us more money and more stimulus to keep fighting this pandemic, and the numbers just don't justify, the ends don't justify the means. If we have to lock down for a month in order to be fricking free and clear.
Starting point is 01:43:46 You're cool with that. You're cool with forms of block out. I'm not saying I'm cool with it. I'm saying if these are what experts, not talking heads like us over here, experts are saying we might want to consider listening to experts on this. Obviously our gut instincts are going to be like another lockdown. Oh my God. But if this is what it takes,
Starting point is 01:44:05 we need to do something about this because how much money is the pandemic costing us because our economy is not fully functional? The answers are whatever the media decides to tell you that day. I love how people that voted for Biden tell us that COVID is back. How the hell do they know? Are they the doctors?
Starting point is 01:44:20 How do we know this guy isn't a quack? All right, by the way, I'm embarrassed. He treats us at the University of Minnesota. I think it is the most harmful thing he could possibly say. I think it is dangerous. I think he should be disbarred. I think it's terrible what he said. Another lockdown would destroy this country.
Starting point is 01:44:38 I mean, to an economic degree that I don't know if we be able to get out of it for a long time. And here's the other thing, too. Biden is a puppet. He will do what everybody tells him to. He's already been documented to say that he would shut down the country if science told him to or if he was encouraged to. So can you read the tea leaves where this is going? It's headed in exactly that direction.
Starting point is 01:44:59 And you know what, do we really know COVID is back? Yeah, positive tests are back. Are people dying more? Is it a fatal disease? Let's see. I see you units really that overwhelmed right now. Apparently they are. We don't know that.
Starting point is 01:45:11 We don't know what the media saying it. We don't know it's true. Let's just take the hospital work for it. Don't go to Texas. Go all this show all. And if you can make that bigger, Kai, be good. Have you guys talked to doctors like in March, April, May? Yeah, we did.
Starting point is 01:45:24 That are actually in March. We did. It's not as bad as in March, April, May? Yeah, we did. We did. It's not as bad as... It's not as bad as... Yeah, go to death. So death is not up. Cases are up, Adam, if you think about it. So do me a favor, put them side by side. Like put another page, side by side so we can go to it.
Starting point is 01:45:37 To go to another page and put the same exact search day, just put up. COVID cases. Just tap in coronavirus cases. Yeah, there you go, like that. And go to it and then change from Texas to all. Show all. So, so look at that. So, can you make this smaller and put it right next to the other one? Because I want to compare the two, make it smaller and make the other one.
Starting point is 01:45:58 Yeah. So, so go to COVID cases, COVID cases, so go to death. Because this is how you measure this. Like, if the cases are up, but death is down, it just means it's not as deadly, just so everybody knows. Yeah, go a little more left, and then change it from cases to death on the left side. Yeah, so if you look at that, can you make that a little smaller guy or no? Okay, let's just look, that's fine, that's fine.
Starting point is 01:46:22 The way it is. If you look at this right here, this is what you see. So here it went up, cases went up, so death, this is cases. Okay, cases went up, death went up, right at the beginning. We had no clue what we were doing. Then death went down, June 13, cases flattened. Okay, cases went up, we had one big day here.
Starting point is 01:46:44 Then it's pretty much been flat, even though the cases have been going up. You don't see a spike going up. So you realize the more cases go up and death stays flat, you know what it's saying? It's not as deadly. That's what it says. I don't know if that makes sense or not.
Starting point is 01:46:57 So if cases are going, look at, look at how bad, it's the worst it's ever been with cases, right? Look at over here. It's a worst it's been with cases, but death is flat. So if this spikes, then that means the rate of how deadly it is is deadly. But if cases are going up, it just means kids are going back to school,
Starting point is 01:47:14 September kids started going back to school, October, November, you know what? Kids are around each other. By the way, in my kids' school, they just shut down high school. High school has to go home because three kids got COVID. So they shut down the whole high school. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:47:26 So they send the high school home in Texas, to private school. But everybody else is still going to school. But high school because they're playing around they're together, they're playing sports, whatever they're doing, they shut it down, right? So, but you know, the data doesn't show more people are dying. I'm ready.
Starting point is 01:47:40 I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm getting more kids. I get it. I get it. I get my question. What I'm saying is this. What would you rather have? We shut down. We don't shut down GDP grows at, you know, 2%. Right? Yeah. We shut down for a month. GDP grows at 10%. What would you rather have? That's not a realistic option. That's how how is the GDP going to grow
Starting point is 01:48:05 on over a lockdown? I don't think that'd be like saying, would you like to have a lot a shum down the country, but your guaranteed to have a winning lottery ticket? Or would you rather not have that? Well, the GDP lockdowns and the bad and the no other way around it. GDP in the second quarter went down 34%. Right. Went back up 35% Q3. My question is, if we lock down, but GDP is able to grow because they get a hold of this. No, no, no, GDP doesn't grow if you lock down. GDP only grows if you send free money out. That's how we'd grow. Okay. So we're going into more than some more stimulus package. It's not going to get approved. You want it is owned on the other side. There's still going to be a stimulus package. Not just the size you think. Not stimulus package. It's not going to get approved if the Senate is owned on the other side. There's still going to be a stimulus package.
Starting point is 01:48:45 Not just the size of it. Not the size of it. It'll be at least $100 million. Yeah, $800 million. Yeah, $800 million. $800 million. Okay. But all I'm saying is if experts, not talking heads like us over here, you're saying
Starting point is 01:48:56 that a potential lockdown, you're forgetting. These are not. Listen, just so you know, lockdown benefits me. Let me tell you selfishly. So a lockdown benefits me tremendously. More money and the stimulus benefits me tremendously in millions of ways. We had the biggest month in the history of the company
Starting point is 01:49:15 when there was lockdown. Selfishly it benefits me. But it crushes restaurants. It crushes small businesses. Do you not heart so let me give you a little bit more perspective. So you know when you start a business, how hard is it to keep a business running and flowing? You're not hard at all.
Starting point is 01:49:34 Very hard. Very hard. You know what's even harder? When you go out of business and try to start another one. When your business goes out of business, what's your next move? What's the first thing you do when your business goes out? Goes out of business? What's the first thing you do when your business goes out? Goes out of business? What's the first thing you gotta do?
Starting point is 01:49:46 Try another one, I guess. No, you get a job. You go get a job to save money because all your savings was in that business. So the only reason you went out of business is because you ran out of money. If you have money, you would have never ran out of business. Yeah, but these businesses that are operating at 50% capacity. Yeah? Okay. If they continue to operate at 50% capacity. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 01:50:05 If they continue to operate at 50% capacity. But if you shut down, if you shut down, they're done. Okay, their margins are so thin. If they're 100% capacity. Not if there's PPP. You still need us, how much stimulus are you going to give them to stay in business? If it's for a month. I mean, I've been looking at office space left and right.
Starting point is 01:50:21 You know what landlords have been saying? We're giving 25% discount for people that are struggling. 25% they're not saying, hey, it's okay. It's 25%, 25%. The other business that took a big hit, his business didn't take a 25% hit. They think I took an 80% hit. So you took an 80% hit on revenue and profits,
Starting point is 01:50:37 but you're getting the 25% savings on the lease you gotta pay. You're out of business buddy. It's just basic stuff, a pain deal. They kind of business, they possibly doing it. 50% capacity. Let's just, let's, because you're desperate.
Starting point is 01:50:47 You need any kind of money to try to stay afloat and you're trying to make your business stay live with your savings. You're like saving your four-way-k. You're saying if there's one month of lockdown. Yeah. I'm posing a question. Yeah, it's horrible.
Starting point is 01:50:59 And they give you money. They give you money. They're not giving you enough money. 800 billion is nothing. You're saying 800 billion. They're not giving you enough money. 800 billion is nothing. You're saying 800 billion? They're saying it could be 1.5 trillion. That's nothing. To who though?
Starting point is 01:51:10 To everybody. A lockdown is a horrible thing. How do you keep a business going on? Bro, if you put one month here, guys, we're not talking about for six months. Do you really believe shutting down the country is a good thing right now? I mean, literally airlines got crushed. Good news we got. Vaccines coming up. Stocks went up. It's good. People are excited. Phenomenal. You want to shut
Starting point is 01:51:30 down for four to six weeks. And by the way, you know how you shut down the economy for 90 days? You know how you shut down the economy for 90 days? Guess how you shut down the economy for 90 days? First, you convince people to agree to four to six weeks. That's how you shut down the economy for 90 days. You understand what I just said? Here's how you do it. You're saying it's a slippery slope. No, no, here's how you do it. You shut down the economy for 46 weeks.
Starting point is 01:51:51 But the case is all stirred there. We need to go. We were almost there. Let's go four more weeks. Yeah, that's what they did last time. That's exactly what's happening in California. That's what they do every single week and every single month, man.
Starting point is 01:52:02 I'm not saying we should do it. I know you're not saying that. I know what you're putting in the numbers. I know what you're putting in the numbers. 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 saying we should do it. I know you're saying if the numbers, some poor, no, but we don't know the number. I tell you, you know, who else it doesn't know you? You're saying it's no matter what. Yeah, but I can't control myself when someone is advocating to shut the country down.
Starting point is 01:52:15 It makes no sense. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm with you tremendously. I'm not doing that. I think what needs to happen, look, when we're having a conversation about New York, what'd you say? You get perspective. Your perspective was what?
Starting point is 01:52:27 You want your grandma to die? Okay, you don't want your grandma to die if they come to Thanksgiving? So what did I say? Let's say, are you guys still gonna have the gatherings? Maybe you don't invite your grandma. Maybe you go to the grandma and check on him and you leave, right?
Starting point is 01:52:39 Maybe some people are not gonna do that. So the grandma, you're like, the other day, Tiko was sick, okay? He had a flu, 100 degrees. He likes to sleep with his papa. I went and I said, you're not sleeping with papa tonight. He says, why not? I said, because your dad's, your papa cannot get the fever.
Starting point is 01:52:52 He says, okay, you're right. You know what he does? He goes upstairs, and you know what he does? He leaves his bed. Then he goes and sleeps by himself on another bed. You know why? He says, I don't want Dylan to get sick. Look at this freaking kid.
Starting point is 01:53:03 He says, I don't want Dylan to get sick. Freakin' Tico,ome and do what he thinks. What I'm trying to tell you is, people will think the right way to make the decision to not hurt their 85-year-old grandma or grandpa. People can do the right things. You don't have to shut down the economy when the rest of us are gonna be okay working.
Starting point is 01:53:18 Don't get me wrong. There's a big community in America that secretly would love another shutdown. I know them. Who are those people? Same people when the guy was giving me a haircut with Michael Rapatoni and one of the guys that was here saying, I'm making more money than ever
Starting point is 01:53:32 because of the freaking stimulus. And the love in life, I have more cash than ever before. And I said, wow, what a freaking shame that the economy is paying people that we're not even making half this money. They're paying them twice the money they're making right now, just because of stimulus. You know how many people are looking for a shutdown?
Starting point is 01:53:47 Many people. Well, two thirds of people we as we established making more money during the... Yeah, many people. Listen, the point that I'm saying is, there's no sound no audio. I think at this point we got to shut down because I don't know what's going on
Starting point is 01:53:56 with the sound in the audio. People are commenting. It's on YouTube's end. It's on YouTube's end. We're fine on our rent. Okay. The point that I'm making is... Yeah, let's wrap this up and then we'll go and we'll put it back
Starting point is 01:54:06 up. I'm not saying that we should shut down. But if people are saying that and they have numbers to support it and there's actual data, it deserves to at least be entertained. Let's not pretend that we're doctors here. No, this has nothing to do with us being doctors. This is everything to do with these people are politically politically motivated when they're saying these things. If it how was that guy politically motivated?
Starting point is 01:54:27 Because he's on Biden's task force. Okay. So Biden will pick guys like him. Who think that? What do you think Biden wants to shut down the? 100% why? I truly think. Why does he want to? Because he's already said he does. But why does he want to do that? Because the more that the government as a Democrat can be involved in individual people's lives, that benefits them. A shutdown is beneficial to them for that reason. For what? How does it benefit them?
Starting point is 01:54:54 Because they're more dependent on the government. They'll want the stimulus. They'll want everything that the big government wants to provide for you is what they think that they'll need. So you're saying that he wants to do that. So people are more dependent on government. That has nothing to do with actually trying to take Biden wants to have a shot. I'm asking you, you don't think there's any part of this that he wants to actually control
Starting point is 01:55:12 the virus? Here's the last thing I would say. If the, I'm not saying the virus isn't out there. I'm not saying it's not bad for people that are susceptible to it. Do we, do you know anyone personally who has died from it? I do. I know a 91 year old, a 90 year old. I don't know anybody other than really, really,
Starting point is 01:55:27 extremely old people. And I don't know anybody that it is really, truly affected their day to day. Phone system is offline right now. So, but that doesn't affect this. Okay, got it. Got it. So, look, I don't know what's gonna happen.
Starting point is 01:55:42 I don't know what this is all about. I mean, people cannot do anything. We'll figure it out. Thank God we have Dr. Zener over here to, you know, you two are about doctors yesterday. Yeah, they had huge issues. They're having issues. That's all good. I mean, it's all good. We have people.
