Starting point is 00:00:00 Walmart plans to automate 65% of its stores within next three years in order to speed up its e-commerce fulfillment center the move follows the announcement of laying off 2000 employees who fulfill online orders Walmart aims to move around 55% of packages that it processes through its fulfillment centers through automated facilities by January 2026 which is expected to improve unit cost averages by about 20% the company's investment in automation technology is part of it's a more than $15 billion capital spending budget. This increased efficiency will support better inventory management and Wal-Morch's rapidly growing e-commerce business. Wal-Morch hacked its minimum wage earlier this year across the country.
Starting point is 00:00:38 Serpacing $17.50, which were expected to be reflected in March 2nd paychecks, Tom. There's a cause and effect here, ladies and gentlemen. And so you got Bernie Sanders out there trying to raise him and raise, wage him and raise. So how did Walmart respond? First of all, they said, for the people that are working well in our stores that are doing well, we're going to move you up to 1750. There was also a thing about Walmart,
Starting point is 00:01:00 where it's actually paying some education reimbursements when those people wanted to go and take some courses. But then on the other side of it, the other side of the board meeting went like this. Look, the stock market is an angry beast and we gotta feed it. And we have to feed it profits and I think called the PE ratio.
Starting point is 00:01:20 How much we got? We got $30 billion in cash. What if we take 15 billion of it and we invest in automation? So we can keep the best people at $17 an hour, but we can compete with Amazon that's automating and doing Amazon Prime and you can click on there and you can get a tube of toothpaste and an hour to your front door.
Starting point is 00:01:39 I don't need Instacart, Amazon Prime, if you notice that. Some things they'll deliver like in two hours. If you order it now it will be a different door. And there it is. need Instacart Amazon Prime, if you notice that, some things they'll deliver like in two hours. If you order it now, it'll be a different door. And there it is. And so they're competing. So there's three angles here. The first angle is beware of capitalists.
Starting point is 00:01:53 If you put them in the corner, they're going to invent their way out. Rule one, never screw with real capitalists and entrepreneurs. Rule two, you know what? If you're going to force me to pay people more, I only want the best people. And so you better be the best otherwise, you're not gonna be here. And rule three, competition brings out an assortment of things that ultimately are gonna be good to consumers,
Starting point is 00:02:17 because you know what's gonna happen here? On one side, you could look at labor and say, oh my gosh, my gosh, my gosh. On the other side, you know what I see? I see Walmart competing with Amazon so that people get efficient low-cost consumer staples at a time when inflation is up. So I look at the other side and say,
Starting point is 00:02:34 hey, there's gonna be an Amazon and a Walmart competing so that people on average middle-america incomes can afford to get things in a base of inflation. And I think that's important. But that's what I see here. I see about three things moving around. Yeah, I'll tell you one thing that we learned in the last literally year, maybe two years,
Starting point is 00:02:54 when we had Andrew Yang sitting right here and we're Vinnie sitting right there. And this is after $5 trillion was printed of Stimmy money. And he was the biggest proponent of universal basic income UBI that was his whole message when he ran for the presidency in 2016 and Was that 2020 whatever he was running president. Okay, I think it was 16 No 20 and Pat said well make the case for UBI now Mr.. Yang. He's like, we just gave out everybody money, how we doing?
Starting point is 00:03:28 And, you know, he kind of eloquently skirted, well, you know, UBI, and just like, it doesn't hold water. Like this shit don't work. Just printing of the money and giving people money to sit around and do nothing doesn't work. So I guess the point is companies are gonna have to figure it out, employees are gonna have to figure it out. The days of maybe UBI's the thing,
Starting point is 00:03:55 maybe just given Stimmy Chex is the thing, I think we've proven during COVID, this is not gonna be beneficial for the economy. I have no idea what you're talking about. So, he's like, I'll just take my eyes and I just, I don't, you know what I said? And my head, I'm like, is Walmart bad now? Or like, other robots there?
Starting point is 00:04:16 When I read the automation, I go, so we are AIs taking over our jobs, because I said it was coming. So, okay, that was good commentary here. By the way, let's go to our friends. Let's do a quick politics story. We can't let the score without giving Nancy Pelosi a shout out. Pelosi event turns chaotic when anti-war protesters say she belongs in depths of hell, war
Starting point is 00:04:43 criminal. When you start hearing people calling Democrats war criminals, I mean, were they not the anti-war party? Now it's like they are the pro war party. It's confusing a lot of different people. Let me read this article to you. Which page is on the page 10? Of 400? Okay.
Starting point is 00:05:07 That's an inside joke for. All right. So former House of the Units Pelosi was heckled by Intel war protesters during the city university in New York even with hecklers calling their war criminals, saddled drunk, one protestor shouted, you know Pelosi, that's a very good place for you in the depths of hell because for some reason
Starting point is 00:05:20 you have a very bad obsession of getting us into war and why is it that you did not admit that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq one protester you you lied to us you lied us into war in Iraq you got us into invasion of Afghanistan now over 90% of those people are impoverished and dying why don't you tell the truth about Nord Stream why did we destroy Nord Stream can you play the clip by the way somewhere out if you haven't, it's amazing. Watch this.
Starting point is 00:05:46 Let's see, that's a very good place for you and the depths of hell. Because there's no reason you have a very bad obsession of getting us into war. Hey, why is it that you did not admit that there were no WSDs in Iraq? You caught us, you fired up in war in Iraq. You got us in war in Iraq, you end these in Iraq. You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, What do you think about? I'm proud of somebody and then watch one more person's coming one more person pat that is brave I respect these people watch you are
Starting point is 00:06:29 There he is Here we go You're what you're a sad old drunk Yes You look at for you. You're crazy. Yes. We blow up the noise stream on X in the Trump purpose. You just think about that.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Aren't you supposed to be part of the indictment tomorrow? Yes. You're a war criminal by definition, Mr. Pelosi. You got some nerve. Is that why you're here in Manhattan? Wow. Is that why you're here? Because you're getting indicted tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:07:02 You got the award to know. How many times have you got it more How many Wow, man you Man you guys guys He's great. I'm trying to mind you Uh, Rob Hillary's on stage too. You notice how nobody said Hillary was questioning. I wasn't you. That's only clear. No, it's it No, I don't want to get suicide. I was like all Krugman. No, I don't know the thumbnail had a Hillary on the left. I was like a certain difference
Starting point is 00:07:25 Yeah, no, no, no, who's on the left? That's Paul Krugman, then you know, he's saying who's gonna left a Pelosi? I thought my bad. I thought Hillary was up there as well. I don't know, it was just them too. But anyway, Pat, I I love as a veteran too. I love when there's moments like this where people, yeah, there's nobody else. The thumbnail had it. It's just we need more people like this where people, yeah, there's nobody else. The thumbnail had it. It's just, we need more people like this standing up because, Ma'am, you see this audience, look at these lip cards, he's standing up yelling and they won't even let you say your piece because it's true.
Starting point is 00:07:57 It's true, all the wars, all the, all the Iraq and Maduro, I'm going back to Bush for all these. Anybody that got us into these wars, the accountability, the accountability. Zero accountability. How is Bush, Bush, Rumsfeld, I mean, Cheney, none of them got in trouble. None of them got their help to the fire.
Starting point is 00:08:14 We went to war because there was weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. We didn't find them. So what they do, Pat, they change the name of the war. So what was it? Iraq, you enduring freedom or something and nobody ever pays the price. Yeah what was it? I rack you in during freedom or something and nobody ever pays the price. Yeah, I appreciate it during freedom. Yeah, because you just changed your
Starting point is 00:08:29 name because we're already there and we couldn't find anything because they knew it wasn't it's branding. We'll make it sound better. Yeah, no, of course. But then now and then now you have an ex president who who hooked up with a porn star, if that's what you want to call her. And that that that person gets arrested and and goes Would you like I talk about me talking about no, I'm talking about Trump. Okay. I'm not doing But it's just it's just those type of moments make me happy that people have the balls to stand up and yell at them Which are they gonna do anything but I'm I'm a Little confused
Starting point is 00:09:02 Okay, okay, I'm just a little confused by this, because we can make a list of all the wrong doings that Nancy Pelosi has done. Okay. Granted, I'm not here to defend Nancy Pelosi at all, but on my list of things that I would be upset with Nancy Pelosi about, the Iraq war is not on the top of the list, because we we this is after what 2003
Starting point is 00:09:26 Afghanistan was a 102 and then we went into Iraq in 03 okay. Drop fact check the fuck out of me right now. I'm sure that I don't think Nancy Pelosi became speaker of the house until 2007 2008 right before Obama became elected. Fact check. But she was in politics. I'm sure she was pro. But she's not the person, she's not the tip of the spear. What year, Rob?
Starting point is 00:09:53 2007. Okay, all right. So five years after all this went down, now you're gonna come after her again. I'm not defending Pelosi. Yeah. These people are angry. They're upset.
Starting point is 00:10:04 They want accountability. God bless them and they deserve it. But I just I don't it's not adding up to me the war criminal thing corrupt Ridiculous absurd crazy nervous Nancy drunk drunk all totally acceptable. Yeah warmonger. Okay By the way, I don't even know about the nor nobody's proven what's not from the Nord Stream 2 Whether it was Russians Ukrainians America us. We don't know us Again, I'm not defending Nancy here. I empathize with these people. They're upset about a whole host of shit that's going on in San Francisco, California I'd be out there Getting crazy too. I just don't know if this specific meltdown is actually that warranted. I think there's some underlying tensions about her.
Starting point is 00:10:52 I think that's the long and short of it, because I agree with you. It's like, wait a minute, what are you actually talking about? You could pick apart the actual things you're saying. But I think what it says underneath there is that there's a lot more dissatisfaction with Nancy Pelosi Then the media and her and her careful branding spin, but I agree with you What are you talking about? Factually we can break this down say number one you're rude number one is disrespectful other citizens are coming here to hear something and
Starting point is 00:11:18 This and so we should actually feel sorry for the Polosies because getting hammered is we should actually feel sorry for the polo seas because getting hammered is. Is a problem for that. Yeah. Paul gets hammered. Well, different kind of hammering. But and then Nancy's getting hammered. You know, so the poor polo seas, they're just dealing with the hammer this year. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:36 Why don't we just leave them alone? And Vinnie brings up a good point. I mean, listen, if there's anybody that this, if you're angry about this, where this direction, this heat should be headed. It's the bush 100% George W. Bush Dick Cheney Donald Rumsfeld the list goes on. Yeah, and believe me those guys have heard it for years We had a reflasher here. Yeah, reflasher was the Press Secretary for Bush during
Starting point is 00:12:02 9-11 Afghanistan Iraq Iraq, and he even said, listen, this is something that I have to wear for the rest of my life when we said they have weapons of mass destruction and he had to take that out. And I think our reflection is a capable, informed, smart dude. And I even asked him about that on the podcast, Pat, your memories like, yeah, I got no response. We fucked that up. Yeah, but that cost America trillions of dollars. They have shut down credibility.
Starting point is 00:12:27 But in the Hall of Burton Strategic Revenue Plan, I mean, yeah, yeah, rock war. The military industrial complex. But Adam, here's my thing, I didn't know this chance. But Adam, I'm not happy with just taking to L. You could take his ass to jail because, like, hold on, we're not talking about who should go to jail. Everybody that signed on and said,
Starting point is 00:12:47 we are going to Iraq because they have this and we killed over a million, million women, children. So we ruined that going there from Iraq to Afghanistan to everything started because of that ship from 9-11 to that and who has gone to jail for killing all those people? Because that's like saying, all right guys, we're gonna go and shoot up Tom's house
Starting point is 00:13:10 because Tom stole this from us. And we go there, we shoot up Tom, we shoot the whole thing. And they were like, oh shit, Tom didn't steal it. Now what, we just get to take an allergist walk away, fuck that. I think you bring up a good point. Because I think whether it's what you're saying right now, whether that's those angry protesters, whether it's going on, what's happening in the banking system right now, people want accountability.
Starting point is 00:13:31 And the problem is the people at the top very rarely are held accountable, whether it's Bush, whether it's Frickin Fauci, whoever it is, and I think a lot of the anger, especially from the right, is like, okay, so nobody's held accountable, but Donald Trump pays a fucking porn star some hush money and now he's held accountable. This is bullshit. And I understand people's frustration because of you. What's, you know, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the,
Starting point is 00:13:58 the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, to jail, gets arrested, when everything is allegedly. There's no charge or nothing yet, right?
Starting point is 00:14:10 Trump goes and is being indicted, and they, 34 different counts. And it's like, oh, well, we have something bigger, but we have something bigger. Okay, you made this guy fly out because you wanted that image, and you allowed photographers to get in there even though they're not. It's supposed to be a drawing. That's how typically
Starting point is 00:14:29 is done. But you allowed photographers to get in there. And then he goes into all these other people and he says, but how many people got arrested for going to the Epstein Islands? None. Zero. How's that possible? Why are we not investigating that list? Who's being protected? Who's not? That alone, you know what I like about Bill Mar. Bill Mar is not a Democrat who defends Democrats. Bill Mar is a liberal who is now going against the establishment. He's not going against Republicans or He's not going against Republicans or Dems he just can't stand the establishment is who is pushing back on right? Well the establishment is hiding what happened to Epstein
Starting point is 00:15:15 Well, what happened there you have access to it you have the information can we find out? Can we find out what happened there or is that Crew that is all protecting each other 100% you know that in each other That's the part where you start kind of wondering there has to be something that's being hidden I don't know who I asked when I said you think that over come out He says it'll never come out who was sitting here that said it'll never come out. Oh, yeah It was it was a Charlie Kirk. No, we did it at these. It's not never come out Never but I think in about 30 years they're gonna do a movie when you and I are in our 70s We're gonna go to movies and we're gonna sit down. We're gonna say, that's crazy. We live through that and nothing happened.
Starting point is 00:15:47 It took 30 years for us to see what happened. There's somebody will make the movie. 100%. Like if somebody's got the cajonas to make that, cajonas to make that movie sooner rather than 30 years from now because a lot of these people that are part of that are about to die in the next 10 or 15 years. But Pat, think about the secrecy.ies, not to call you off time.
Starting point is 00:16:07 Think about like the, like for the JFK thing, we're not stupid. We all know what happened. The CIA just recently said that they all had, you know, they had a hand in it. That big lie, what do you mean? I've dude that 100% something like that JFK assassination. Look how long they've held the secret. Like nobody's really conformed like, yeah, I know. You say, why? That Epstein Island Brawl, they are just, they know, listen,
Starting point is 00:16:29 keep your mouth shut or something's gonna happen to you. That's it. They're good. And then actually, if you go in Dallas, down to the book depository, and you can go up there to the sixth floor, and you can take a tour, and there is this one area that talks about, you know, conspiracies.
Starting point is 00:16:46 And all it says is that there have been many, many conspiracy theories over the years. And the only thing that they do there is they let you put on headphones and you can listen and they tell you, with 98% certainty, you are going to hear not an echo but four shots and the thing was Oswald fired three or the book and so after this many years there's a little glimpse of truth they say now we don't know who did it or where it came from but we can conclusively say from these police radios there were four shots and it's interesting now you're right enough years go by and the truth is going to come out. You can go down there. And there's no longer that whole exhibit
Starting point is 00:17:31 down there is not Oswald acted alone. He shot fired three times, hit kindly, hit Kennedy in the neck, then Kennedy in the head. And that's that magic magic. Well, thank you. Thank you very much. Q Lyndon Johnson.son yeah right that no no they you can go down listen to it and i'll say there were four shots fired and you're say by who well we don't know there's a lot of theories is to who fired up at the were four shots you know if only four but here we are fifty years later suddenly that is a
Starting point is 00:17:58 that is that exhibit is operated by the government as a historical location new pay six dollars and go up and take a tour. So long enough, they all comes out. It's pretty, by the way, did you guys see what happened with Riley Gaines this last weekend? Yeah. Just yesterday or two days ago,
Starting point is 00:18:16 can you go to the Riley Gaines story? Trans activist, do you have it or no? Okay, she was hit multiple times by guy in a dress terrified riley gains is ambushed by screaming trans activists who physically attacked her after swimming champion delivered speech on saving women sports at san francisco state university which by the way they have a great baseball program there so we let me see a terrified against the force to bar barricade herself into a room at
Starting point is 00:18:44 san francisco state university campus after last night a group of activists ambushed her, gains a husband, Lewis Barker said he had brief conversations with his wife while she was locked in the room for nearly three hours. She told me she was hit multiple times by a guy in a dress. I was shaking and made me that mad. It makes me sick to feel so helpless about it. Do you have a video on this or no? Is there a video to see what happened or no? Is that the video? Can you play it? To look at how angry they're getting, huh? Wow. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:26 Yeah. And, Mind you, Pat, you know that the White House Korean Jean Pierre on Thursday was like, she praised fierce kids who are transgender for your ability to fight back. They're telling them like, hey, fight back. Mind you, that that shooter, that trans shooter. And she didn't say that. I sort of got you on Thursday.
Starting point is 00:19:44 She said it. She said, she said the word first she said fierce kids who are transgender for the ability to fight back and about not only tone deaf when the Nashville shooting happened uh the was it two days later or two or three days later Tom they did a trans visibility day and they were saying hey guys the trans community is under attack no no time out a trans just shot and killed three kids and two of like
Starting point is 00:20:10 what the hell are we what are we talking about like this latest with the enactment of a new law in indiana fourteen states have now banned gender affirming health care while some of these laws are currently blocked by courts. This is a dangerous attack on the rights of parents to make the best health care decisions for their own kids. According to the Human Rights Campaign, more than 50% of transgender youth in the US,
Starting point is 00:20:42 which is estimated to be more than 150,000 kids, living states in which transgender youth have lost access to or at risk of losing access to gender-affirming care. Look, this is awful news. We'll be very clear about that. LGBTQI plus kids are resilient. They are fierce they fight back
Starting point is 00:21:07 they're not going anywhere and we have their back this administration has their back we are so proud of the kids across this country who have organized protest and school walkouts to tell the politicians in their states to stop this legislative bullet. Pat, can you guys explain to me, there, you know why they're upset? You know why they're upset? Because we're not letting them these states mess up their children's bodies and chop off their their genitalia. What is the obsession with kids pack? Can you please explain like make me
Starting point is 00:21:47 understand why that's what they're pushing for the states that are banning that that transition for kids that haven't even developed in their minds and I've said it before on this podcast, what is the obsession with children? Is it because all that gender, affirming care is that's big pharma? Because is that because it's money involved, Pat? Or is it because those people can't have kids and they want depopulation? Could somebody explain it to me? I don't get it.
Starting point is 00:22:13 I don't understand. And now you're telling these people, hey, listen, get mad. Get pissed off. Be fierce. Stand up like, I don't get it. Yeah. I'm confused.
Starting point is 00:22:23 I'm very confused. Yeah, you know, you know, again, for me, I don't get it. I'm confused. I'm very confused. Yeah, you know, again, for me, I'd like to believe common sense prevails. I'd like to believe we come to our senses. I'd like to believe that bad policies will eventually get exposed, right? But I also know in a situation like this,
Starting point is 00:22:44 I can't show that meme enough. Can you go to the P.V.D. podcast meme that wouldn't meme about, you know, the parents, noted this, noted that, noted that, noted this. If you can pull that, I've just got to Twitter to show that. But this meme honestly has to be shown so many times for people to keep repeating this statement to people for others to realize, you know, that this is common sense. Keep going down, keep it right there. You know, can you drive a car? No. Can you pick your bedtime? No. Can you drink a beer? No. Can you vote? No. Can you cut off your sex organs and take hormones? Yes. Oh my god. This doesn't make any sense whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:23:25 And by the way, again, this whole concept of the West takes criticism and other people's criticism of the West. And a guy yesterday came up to me who was at the podcast show and we had a very good conversation to get. He's a Muslim. And say Pat, can I talk to you? I love everything you're saying,
Starting point is 00:23:43 he says, but man, you gotta have a Muslim on to kind of hear our perspective. I'm not an extremist. Trust me, there's extremism in Muslim. I understand what you're saying. But man, there's a lot of us that are good. I'm like, in our company, in insurance company, our Muslim community in the insurance company is growing.
Starting point is 00:24:00 And we have a couple people in the company freaking amazing, amazing people. people like truly you love them. Hasn't the being there's amazing amazing people right? Where you can sit down and have a conversation. The fear becomes well, you know, Muslim is grown Christianity is, you know, not growing and that how you're competing. And then you listen to their argument. This is not about profit.
Starting point is 00:24:24 Do you know profit, Muhammad? Mary, this idea, this big girl? I'm not having that debate. That's not the conversation I'm having in this context. I will tell you, one is compromising their values, the other's not. Okay. One is saying, don't worry about it. Cut off your dangling.
Starting point is 00:24:38 You're only seven years old. The other one's saying, what the hell are you talking about? Get the hell back in your room. Say that one more time. So you're like, oh my God, well, you're such an extreme parent. The other one's saying, let her do whatever she wants to do. Why are you being on top of her the way you are compromising? The other one is saying, I'm the freaking father.
Starting point is 00:24:59 I'm the freaking mother. You know what is starting to happen? Here's what's starting to happen. I remember I'm leading freaking mother. You know what is starting to happen? Here's what's starting to happen I remember I'm leading my sales organization and I'm working with folks and My style was what else can I do to you? What else can I do to help you? Can I make some costs for you? Can I go on some appointments with you? Can I do this? I want to help and I'm like None of the shit is working. I'm 25 years old. I'll never forget this meeting I had. Mario tells the story better than I do.
Starting point is 00:25:28 I'm 25 years old. I come in, I had a long weekend, Sunday, I'm in my office. I'm like, I'm bustin' my ass. I'm freaking doin' my best. And nothing is happening. This is so annoying.
Starting point is 00:25:39 And I sat there and I said, I got a bunch of 18, 19 year olds who were hookin' up every day. I walked into the office on Sundays, they're hooking up, because they don't have a place to go hook up. They're literally in the parking lot. They're walking, I'm like, okay,
Starting point is 00:25:50 that guy's hooked up with that person. I know everybody that would walk in. Eventually, I'm like, no, here's what we're gonna do. I come in Monday morning, I say stand up if you're under 25 years old. They stood up. If you stay standing, if you're married, if you're single, stand it. Stay, if you're single, standing, stay
Starting point is 00:26:05 standing, if you have no kids, no kids, as a get out. What do you mean? Get out. What do you mean get out? I'm not working with you guys anymore. Get out. Go to different company or different office. I'm not working with you. Marius in the room. I said, I'm going to give you five minutes. Get out. I'm not dealing with any of your bullshit anymore. Get out. One guy's, oh, well, if I were you, dude, what happened to the path? That's, I'm telling you, I don't like that path.
Starting point is 00:26:32 That path is pissing me off. There's a new pattern town, okay? Get out. One guy gets up, he gets out. The girl follows him. The girl's the girl that he was hooking up with so far. I know all the stuff that's going on. Then the next guy gets up and gets on.
Starting point is 00:26:45 Next guy, I said, get out. So I'm looking at Mari, get out. I'm not getting out. George, get out. Not getting out. Get out. I'm not getting out. 20 people walk out.
Starting point is 00:26:55 Five people stick around. Mario's Mario. One guy, George. We paid George one and a half million dollars last year. He's now 35 years old. Maybe just about a $3 million house in freaking Austin. He's and a half million dollars last year. He's now 35 years old, married just about a three million dollar house in freaking Austin. He's having a great time in his life.
Starting point is 00:27:08 Okay, Cindy is a rock star, what she's doing, her family, she makes 600 grand years, she's 34, 35. She's from Palm, though, both of these guys are from Palm, though, the people that stuck around became leaders. But I went from, hey, I, this, that, I'm like, no, get your ass up run appointments do this do that or else This is not the office for you now was it a little extreme? Yes, did I need to learn to bring it back down at 26 27 28 That I learned yes that came with maturity You know what Muslims are doing the Christians are not Muslims are saying get your ass out of bed and go do this
Starting point is 00:27:41 No, we don't stand up for this let Let Americans do this stuff. This is not us. I don't know what the hell you're talking about. Being so, you know, what is it? Accommodating to everybody. Stop trying to please everybody. Christians, some of your values are supposed to piss people off. It's not supposed to get everybody to say, this makes sense.
Starting point is 00:28:01 There is a part of it that's a little bit extreme and high standards versus, you know, no, no, no, it's okay. No, no, no, it's okay. To me, the no, no, no, it's okay is anybody can come to church. I, I, listen, I went to church, I'm sitting there talking to and I'm like, do you realize what I just did this weekend? You want me to have to get church this Sunday? Do you really want to know what I did?
Starting point is 00:28:19 If I tell you the story, you're going to get uncomfortable. Let me tell you what I did. No, no, you don't need to tell us. You know, I'm telling you, you don't want me to have to search. I'm not, and then I went't need to tell us. You said, I'm telling you, you don't want me at the church. I'm not, and then I went and sitting all the way in the back, I'm like, this guy's probably at this, this guy, and I start criticized and saying all this stuff,
Starting point is 00:28:32 right? I'm like, but I'm gonna come back next Sunday because he's got good jokes. So I come back next Sunday. Do you realize I just came back every Sunday for a year and a half just because the guy was funny, and I like the way he told stories. Then eventually I, you know, do what I do,
Starting point is 00:28:45 my life things change. But we, you, Tom, myself, all of us in here, deep down inside, you know what we deep down inside love and we know we need, even though we fight it, strong leadership. 100%. We need it. You need it.
Starting point is 00:29:02 America needs it. Kids need it. The West, if the criticism is a fair criticism to give the West, you're getting soft. And you're compromising your values. And it's a pathetic week move that's gonna hurt you long term. It ain't too late yet to go back to the same old standards and just say, what the hell are you talking about
Starting point is 00:29:23 cutting these things off? Well, what do you mean? No, no, this is not acceptable. You cannot do things like this. So my hopes is that we're going to eventually get our heads out of our asses and realize common sense prevails. And bad policies get exposed. A lot of them are starting to get exposed.
Starting point is 00:29:41 And we're going to get back to some normality. But it's only going to happen with a strong leader that's going to come in, knock some senses into the West because the West is a little bit drunk right now. They're high. They're taking one to many sleeping pills. They're a little bit too soft. They're compromising and they need to realize we've led the world. We have set the tone to the world. We have set the tone to the world. US has set the tone to everybody else. They
Starting point is 00:30:07 follow US's lead, not the other way around. Now we're following other people's leads. Time out. The hell are we doing here? So, and I don't know, I'm in America because I love what America stood for, not what America is standing for today. What America stood for is why I came to America while I love this place. Some of the shit we're standing for today, What America stood for is why I came to America. While I love this place. Some of the shit we're standing for today, I don't stand for that stuff. And I think the A, this comes down to the soft parents. Number one and number two, all this started happening.
Starting point is 00:30:34 All this started happening. I think a generation or two-ped after mine, Adam, where disciplining your kids, like you were saying, not beating them. People always take that out of the context. Disciplining your kids became taboo. It became, don't touch that. Hey, hey, don't touch that.
Starting point is 00:30:49 To now the kids are like, oh, you're not gonna do anything. Jimmy, don't remember what we told you. To now Jimmy's going, you know what? I'm gonna become a girl and you can't do anything about it, dad. There's no hope, and then what do you say to people that? They're like, okay, now these parents are going to the schools because the school is a big part of it. But then when you try to speak up in the school,
Starting point is 00:31:07 they're labeling you domestic terrorists. Like, there's no hope. Like, I feel you, I love your optimism, Pat. But I don't think, and then when the White House is standing up there in front of you saying, hey, let us let the system take your, you know, hormone therapy for your kids and dude, there's no winning for the parents.
Starting point is 00:31:28 These kids have no hope. I don't think the quality of being helpless or feeling like you've lost hope is a good strategy ever because you know, kind of like same thing I said to Rudy yesterday when Rudy and I had a big back and forth, I don't know how long for like 20 minutes, I'm like this whole thing about, you know, well they cheated, they did something like, honestly, I don't know how long for like 20 minutes. I'm like, this whole thing about, you know, well, they cheated.
Starting point is 00:31:45 They did something like, honestly, I can't stand it when my kids, when they lose and they're dealing or, they go or they cheat. I'm like, listen, I don't care if they cheated. Be better because I can cheat all I want. If I play one-on-one against Kobe, he's still gonna beat me.
Starting point is 00:32:01 I can cheat all I want if I play against Jordan. He's still gonna beat me. It doesn't matter. The great ones who can cheat and they're still gonna whoop. I can cheat all I want if I play against Jordan, he's still gonna beat me. It doesn't matter. The great ones who can cheat and they're still gonna whoop your ass, right? So for me, this concept of when you say they cheated, the other side doesn't wanna show up because in their mind they're thinking,
Starting point is 00:32:15 oh, they're gonna cheat anyway. So we're gonna lose. Why should I even show up and vote? No, stop saying that. Just show up. Let's show up more. Get more people to rally. Have a party.
Starting point is 00:32:24 Get thousands of people to go with you to vote. Be a better rallyer at getting people to show up. Let's show up more getting more people to rally have a party get thousands of people to go with you to vote Be a better rallyer at getting people to show up and vote so for me I think the moment hope is gone People don't want to put the energy to fight because they're thinking they're hopeless. They're hopeless. We're not Historically leaders have risen Historically they rise up till today. I Saw something the other day. It was so freaking emotional. I'd love to play it because it plays a song I love a lot by Hill song oceans and it's
Starting point is 00:32:51 a clip of a guy. I want to give it to you, Rob. Without you playing the music, the music makes the video so much more freaking emotional. But I'm going to give it to you anyways. And I want you to just Rob, do me a favor, try to do what I'm playing the music. So this video stays on. It's so fricking heart-breaking when you watch this, but at the end, you have to respect mankind
Starting point is 00:33:14 because we, fricking care, mankind cares, mankind, again, the chills just thinking about this right now. See these blooms, dude, we love people, man. We don't like bullies and scumbags. We're willing to stand up and give hope to other people. Here's a guy here in this video that's pouring benzene or gas on top of them to commit suicide and watch what happens at the end.
Starting point is 00:33:39 I just want you to see this. He's really doing it. Watch this. Watch this right in the middle of it. Everybody's smelling it. They're stepping away. He's taking a lighter out everyone starts running look These guys are the pansies they're running, but watch what happens watch what she does That's what I'm talking about. She takes the lighter away from him like you can't kill yourself, bro You can't give up life is worth it. You're going through a tough time. This message is America.
Starting point is 00:34:06 This is us. We have to fight for each other. We have to tell each other, listen, brother, I don't know what the fuck are you thinking right now? You've lost your mind. You don't sound right. You don't sound reasonable. Think about your kids. Think about the future. Think about each other. What are you doing to yourself? America, if we come from that place, and we look at each other and we say, dude, come on snap at it, go take a damn cold shower. You're better than this,
Starting point is 00:34:33 out of guy that was working for me. Every day for a month, he knows who he is. Every day for a month, we would go to this lunch place, I won't even say the place, because some people are gonna try to calculate exactly what it was. Every day at lunch, he would talk to this lunch place. I won't even say to place because some people are going to try to calculate exactly who it was. Every day I'd lunch,
Starting point is 00:34:46 he would talk to me about suicide. Every day, and I would sit down like, dude, I'm telling you, bro, just trust me. This shit's not going to last this long. It's going to suck for two years. But I'm telling you, good things are around the corner, bro.
Starting point is 00:35:00 What do you talk to this, Pat? What is life worth? I'm like, I'm telling you. And by the way, this is not the guy that wants attention. This is a guy that was a guy that doesn't want attention. He's not saying this to everybody. He's just telling me this talking to me like a brother.
Starting point is 00:35:13 Do you know how he's doing today? Fucking amazing life. So happy when I saw him, we saw each other, we gave each other hug. And, you know, the conversation was like, you know when you look at somebody in the eyes and you know that they know that you know That they know and you like you cry. Yeah without saying anything. Yeah, that's this
Starting point is 00:35:31 America changed my life America's changed so many people's lives We need to go back to selling how freaking amazing of a concept this was and can be But we cannot just give up hope and be helpless thinking, we can't do anything about it. Okay, look, one thing I know about myself, I'm a sinner at the highest level. I am perfect, I've done some stupid shit in my life.
Starting point is 00:35:55 I've done, I've set stuff, I've done this, I've done that, I've done this. I don't see myself as a guy that's perfect. We can't have a standard of perfection right now. Nobody's perfect, nobody knows at all. None of us know about how much money you got, no matter. None of us, no matter how much money you got, no matter how good you look, no matter how many followers you got, nobody cares, we all have flaws, all of us.
Starting point is 00:36:10 We have to strive to get better. We have to strive to get our arguments to be better. We have to strive to become better fathers, better husbands, better wives, better brothers, better sisters, better contributors to society, where you're sitting there debating the argument of four days a week, and you actually saying that's a good argument, that's a selfish argument to to me because you have talent to give to the rest of us
Starting point is 00:36:28 God gave you a certain talent where if you do something with your towns We're gonna benefit from it. What a selfish position to only put four hours for a week into it Why don't you contribute just like we're doing our best to contribute? Let's collectively work together I think those are the arguments that need to be delivered in a better way for people to say, damn, that kind of does make sense. What am I doing? But that video I saw, man, I watch that video. I'm gonna give it to you guys afterwards to what, because you're gonna watch it afterwards with music on. Watch how you'll feel it. You'll see it in a very different way. Anyways, sorry about the rant. I just said, you know, this really triggered me with a thought. It's all good. Number one, I love when Pat goes off on this,
Starting point is 00:37:05 because this is coming, this is not, this is not no script. Yeah. You're not reading no speech. This is from the heart. And I'll just kind of maybe try to put a ribbon on this, you know, this conversation started with Vinnie bringing up the transgender, or speaking out against transgender. What's the swimmer's name? Riley Gaines.
Starting point is 00:37:23 Oh, Riley Gaines, basic tag. You know, she's famous because she was the one competing against this leotamas person. Yeah. Okay, that's how she became to notoriety. And you know what I'm thinking about as you're saying this and you're saying this and you're saying this. And I'll keep revisiting this well. Is the decline in American values that we just talked about the other day.
Starting point is 00:37:41 Okay, in patriotism, in community involvement, in religion, in wanting kids, the only thing that did go up was wanting money. And I think what you're talking about is can we just get back to normal? And that's why this girl Riley Gaines is saying, hey, I'm a woman. I lost the race to this dude over here, okay? And now I want to speak out and tell my story, and now I'm getting shamed because I'm a woman, and I, what happened to the feminism thing, can I?
Starting point is 00:38:10 Yeah, huh. But what happened with that, and I think what Pat's saying is that, what he did in that office, what he does with these kids is I'm gonna tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear. I'm not gonna lower my standards. And I think what we're seeing is that America
Starting point is 00:38:26 is lowering our standards and accepting nonsensical things to be today's reality. And here I'm gonna call out fucking Joe Biden for a second right now. Because I'm gonna call, if I'm gonna call out Trump, I'm also gonna call out Biden. So Biden says the other day, this is after the shooting, he says, quote unquote,
Starting point is 00:38:46 transgender people shape our nation's soul in official proclamation. Let me just read this real quick. God, he issued an official proclamation to claim that transgender American shape our nation's soul and establish an American holiday relating to this group. You issued this on March 31st. Change, gender, American American shape our nation, so proudly serving in the military, curing deadly diseases, holding elected office, running thriving businesses, fighting for justice, raising families, and much more.
Starting point is 00:39:14 All right, listen, Joe Biden. Change under people are 0.5% of our nation. Okay, do they deserve to be treated like human beings? Do they deserve to be treated as fat? Sure. But who shapes our nation's souls? Our families. Our people with kids. Our people that have grandparents and aunts and uncles
Starting point is 00:39:36 and families and kids and American family values. That is our nation's soul. Yeah. Okay. Transgenders might be a sliver of what's going on here, but they are not the ones shaping our nation's soul. And this pandering to the woke left, so they can fucking get 0.5% of people's votes,
Starting point is 00:39:58 is nonsensical to me. 100%. And I totally understand to revisit this, exactly why rally gains is like, hey, just a female swim over here trying to compete against women. Yeah. And you got this dude over here who's six, five lurch
Starting point is 00:40:11 beating me. Yeah. It's like, this doesn't make sense. And he sends it. And to back to pack credit, this shit just doesn't add up. Yeah, and you made a, I mean, better great point, Adam. Where are all, and I'm being genuine, I'm calling them out, where are all the genuine feminists, the Lena Dunham,
Starting point is 00:40:28 Alissa Milano, the Beyonce's, all of them, where you at? You have, you morons, it doesn't involve you then. Like, for instance, you have this picture right here. Yeah, yeah. Let me, you know how they say a picture says a thousand words. Like, just look at the picture. The lady on the left wink, wink, she beat the other ladies.
Starting point is 00:40:49 It's so, no, it's a, remember, it's so absurd. They shared a locker room. All these folks did. And that guy still had equipment. So he was still packing heat. Yeah, he has unbelievable. And Tom, Tom, you have children, Pat, you have children. Let me ask you a couple of people.
Starting point is 00:41:05 You guys have... Rob tried to zoom in. Yeah. So I got you Rob. Rob is like, let me take you. So here's my point, Tom, because I will ask you and Pat. You guys have children, Pat, you have a daughter, Tom, you have daughters. So Pat, how do you feel?
Starting point is 00:41:24 What do you do? You have a daughter, time you have daughters. So Pat, how do you feel, what do you do? You have a daughter, right, Senna? You have your daughter, she works her whole childhood. You have her in swimming. She busts her ass, she's honing her craft, she's sacrificing going out with her friends, no movies, no boyfriend, her entire youth, it's, she's sacrificed to be the best swimmer. Then she's about to go to college
Starting point is 00:41:44 and loses a scholarship her place because there's a dude with testicles that wants to be in there. And nobody says anything. People are praising them. What do you do as a father? What's your reaction? What do you do?
Starting point is 00:41:57 Oh, you're gonna have to speak up and say something about it and defend your daughter who's been training hard and go and do your part to get involved on a board and have a voice and call the people out. You can't sit on the sidelines, be quiet about it. You have to create a voice and say something about it and defend your daughter because this is demoralizing
Starting point is 00:42:16 to your daughter. If you don't have that conversation with her, this is very demoralizing. It's surprising that the feminists are defending this. They, or they're quiet. We don't know. But I, but I'm so like for me, Tom, you wanted to say something.
Starting point is 00:42:33 You have two girls yourself as well. So what would you say about what Vinny just said right there? So I think that I step back at it and I look at it, and I've been quiet for a few minutes here intentionally. I step back and I look at it and I say, okay, there is a new entitlement group out there. There is a new marginalized group and it's called trans and the media will cancel you, cost you your job, cost you your reputation and attack you.
Starting point is 00:42:59 If you go against the narrative that trans is a new marginalized discriminated against group. So you have true feminists that fought like hell for Title IX. Title IX, you know, in college sports said that women's college sports should get the same funding and opportunity as men college sports. Thank you very much. And that there were some sports that will be unique to men football. And there are going to be some sports that were unique to women. Ballet and dance, you know, ballet, there's dance, but there's, you know what I'm talking about. So number one, that's where it started.
Starting point is 00:43:38 Right now you have, I haven't spoken to any college coach of everything single I've asked this question and I said should we should we respect That for whatever reason they are declaring themselves trans Well, yeah, that's a room to be okay But if they're gonna say that and a male is gonna say I Identify his female Okay, but but still we run a blood test and everything, you got your testosterone, everything like this, say what? We fought like heck for Title IX
Starting point is 00:44:08 to give women the opportunity. All you men that want to compete in division two of men, you compete against yourselves, trans-competed against trans, leave natural men, or what they call cis men, and leave cis women to themselves, and let the trans compete against trans because it is not equal
Starting point is 00:44:26 It says rob there is a an article and This is serious because there is different physiological things look at the size of the swimmers Size 13 feet find me a woman with size 13 feet You'll find one in the USA female swimmer with a size 13 foot. Men, they're all size 13, 14 and 15, and they have longer arms. They are mechanically superior in the water. They're just mechanically superior. Now, look at this, trans high school volleyball player.
Starting point is 00:44:57 Male, who wanted to be known as a female, uses a vicious spike, which entered the female opponent in a highlight real and so then guess what they did here this north carolina right north carolina said stop scroll down road trans trans men cannot compete with women because of the difference in size and strength
Starting point is 00:45:19 let's let trans compete against trans women over here trans over here men over here this guy nocturne here this guy knocked her freaking out He knocked her out. This is a man So you're saying have a trans league Tom have a trans league watch this one Is that a guy No, they're about to there's another clip apparently that girl to the left is a guy. It's about to get oh Dude There's another clip apparently that girl to the left is about to get oh Guys, oh, that's a guy. That's a guy. That's a dude. That's right. All the guys got it nuts and all ladies and gentlemen
Starting point is 00:46:00 Yeah, I'll say one thing about this the speed that they've looked at it the speed off the spike and the the level of Jumping was different and so how can you say so what do? First of all, I see it as a form of cheating. I see it absolutely as a form of cheating of using the trans excuse to go win the NCAA tournament. Leah, I'm talking to you. First, second, the NCAA, after all these years of Title IX, we're completely turning our backs on all the progress we made for women. Let the trans-competers trans, let women compete as women, let men compete
Starting point is 00:46:29 as men. If the school's got enough budgets, they're going to have trans team great. Otherwise, go raise the money for your team, just like regular teams do. And I see it as a form of cheating. And so what do I do with my kids? I talked to my daughters. There's gonna be cheating. People are gonna want to cheat. Don't be one of them. And don't be discouraged after the fact. You're gonna be discouraged in the moment. You're gonna feel ripped off. You're gonna feel emotions.
Starting point is 00:46:56 You're gonna feel cheated. You're gonna feel robbed. You Bailey's team for golf lost the Texas State Championship because one of her players was baited into what's called not moving a markback on the green. Baited on the last hole. It was a two stroke penalty and they lost by one. And I said, you know what you have to carry Bailey?
Starting point is 00:47:18 You have to carry the fact that you won on the course. All the practice, all the effort, all the energy, all the dedication, all the things, winning your league, winning your region, winning your district, then player was baited, and that's not right. And they also, for the indignity of the opposing coach saying, I never saw it, but on the 17th and 18th green, you had parents with camera phones all over the place, saying, baloney, that's you right there. What do you mean you never saw it?
Starting point is 00:48:00 Those are your arms crossed with your coach visor, quietly looking at your player making a putt. That's you. Yeah. And so listen, the cheating part of it, it's going to happen in life. Don't let that be you. Allow your motions to come to the surface because there are normal human emotions. Not to press your emotions.
Starting point is 00:48:17 I'll just, I'll just, my final thoughts. Number one, shout out to Bailey. Yeah. Good job, girl. Bailey, let's go. And then broke her out there. Prediction time. So I guess I got a prediction. Okay, you know, everything at the end of the day,
Starting point is 00:48:31 I think there's going to be some sort of come to Jesus jump to shark moment where we're like, we can't look past this anymore. And it's not going to be in sports like swimming or volleyball or tennis or golf or you're not competing physically against the other person. Yeah. Unfortunately, the sad reality is this is going to happen in a fucking boxing ring or a wrestling match where some trans dude shows up and beats the living shit out of some chick. It could be a permanent
Starting point is 00:49:00 in real life. And she's going to get a concussion, brain hebrverage, die, he might rip her limbs off and beat her with her limbs. I don't know what kind of guerrilla shit might happen. But by the way, but unfortunately, that's what might happen here. By the way, you're absolutely right. Okay, so for me, when one of our sales guys, or sometimes the kids come up with an idea that I know it's a bad idea, sometimes I let them do it.
Starting point is 00:49:22 And I'll say, okay, yeah, you know what, go ahead and do it. Good, do it. Do it and see what happens, okay? So they'll go I let them do it. And I'll say, oh, okay, yeah, you know what? Go ahead and do it. Do it. Do it. And see what happens. Okay. So they'll go and they'll do it. And then all of a sudden, they'll be like, hey, you know, it didn't work. I'm like, yeah, that's good. Now, you know, it doesn't work. So go back to what does work instead of going to sometimes you have to allow bad ideas to take effect for us to eventually see the data and say, this didn't work. Before we get into Fed now, I wanna talk about Fed now before we wrap up, we got eight minutes left.
Starting point is 00:49:49 A lot of, you know, when people say Kobe Bryant's inspiration, he got his inspiration aspirations from who, who was the guy that he looked up to? He wanted to be like Mike. LeBron wanted to be like who? Okay, he maybe a magic, maybe a Mike, you know, some of those guys.
Starting point is 00:50:03 Tom Brady wanted to be like who? His dad, his dad, Joe Montana, right? Joe Montana. You know, we finally figured out who Dylan Mulvaney wanted to be like. Who? Can you please show this to us? Who does he want to be? He, Oh, a view of coca, that's where he, Oh my god. Now it all makes sense.
Starting point is 00:50:22 Oh my god. That's where it is. Hey, God, inspiration. Hey, my god now it all makes sense. Oh my god. That's where the inspiration to hang it down. I know you know this. Dylan Mulvaney transdude. You know that he is the have boobs. No, well, no, listen to me.
Starting point is 00:50:35 He, whatever, whatever you wanna call him, he is not only the sponsor that I was the spokesperson of Bud Light. Let me explain something to you. And it pissed off Kelly the other day with Jared. She is the spokesperson for tampons. Yeah, tampons. Yeah, tampons.
Starting point is 00:50:54 Yeah, tampons. What, try to explain to me how, because he still has his male parts. Am I correct to assume that? What is he using a tampon? No surgeries, his name is still Dylan. How is tampon? I don't even know what to say. Well, let's go to the last story because we only got a couple minutes left. So congratulations to him for however magic he pulled to get that. That's sport. But Rob, can you pull up the story? Guys, we got to do this in seven minutes
Starting point is 00:51:25 Because we got elite mastermind so while you're pulling this up. I'll read the title the santis and RFK junior Miss construe Feds digital plans and warning of government overreach now obviously NBC is defending the fed now You know what they've come out with so this this is the Fed made digital dollar that they're talking about here's what the santa's had to say about this for the governor the santa's alleged last week that a fed-made digital u.s. dollar would let government block transactions like buying a rifle or
Starting point is 00:51:56 filling up with too much gas he added speaking at a pennsylvania conference on saturday they're going to try to impose an esg gender referring to the private sector policy, am it, aimed at advancing environmental and social and governance principles, which conservative lawmakers across the country have been pushing to curb. It is seeding the power of our financial freedom to central bank, which does not have our interest at heart. The Republican governor, who has been widely floated as a potential primary rival to President
Starting point is 00:52:25 Trump has introduced legislation on Florida seeking to ban the use of any fed-issue digital currency in the state and as called on other states to do the same. The fed is re-adying its fed-now initiative which aims to shorten the time it takes for banks to send funds to other banks for a planned july rollout separately has also been explore exploring the possibility of issuing a digital version of the dollar that households could readily use instead of cash the central bank issue currency would be used in digital wallets offered by the private sector including by consumer leaders now pal said we haven't decided that this is something
Starting point is 00:53:06 that the financial system in the country would want or need, so that's going to be very important. That's what Powell said, okay? And then the Santos comments came with endadans of remarks of anti-vaccine, where activists Robert F. Kennedy, they have to put it that way, who tweeted Wednesday that a fed-issued currency
Starting point is 00:53:23 would allow the government to surveil all our private affairs, financial affairs, enforced dollar limits on our transactions restricting where you can send money, freeze your assets or limit your spending or approved to approve vendors if you fail to comply. We're arbitrary vaccine mandates. Like it's another one at that top. When you see this, what do you think about this? Well, I think about the danger it poses to the nation's strippers. Because, because where I saw it's all I'm going.
Starting point is 00:53:53 If it's digital and it's on your phone, some guys gonna go in to a strip club and I'm gonna make it rain in here and he's gonna be throwing his phone and she could get hurt. No, what I think here, I think there's some truth to it that if the issue is it's not just a digital dollar It's all the tracking. Now on one hand, they say well now that people can't cheat on taxes and this and this and this And I think that there's you know the whole concept the first of all what they're talking about up above in that digital systems that are all aligned, we have to take a look and step back and look
Starting point is 00:54:31 at convenience. For instance, does anybody remember when you had to look at the back of your ATM card, maybe when you were 18 years old, and the symbol had to be at an ATM that was on the back of your card, remember that? Or is this your 7-11 plus system? Oh, I'm plus system with my Wells Fargo card. I can get money here. Well, now it's completely ubiquitous.
Starting point is 00:54:50 You can go to any ATM and get money with your card. That's how the banking system got it together so it made it convenient for people to go get money wherever they wanted to get money. So part of this is we're gonna make it easy for the banks to work with each other and instantly transfer overnight. That's not a bad thing. Pay your car loan because it'll be with a bank,
Starting point is 00:55:07 pay your credit card, it's with a bank. That part is good and then the ATM part of that, that I just described, which is true history, that is a good, helpful thing moving it forward. What people are worried about is that the government through a digital currency also has the ability to digitally track everything. And when you see what happens to, you may not like it, but you see what happens to
Starting point is 00:55:31 Andrew Tate, who had his stripe turned off because stripe was told, turn him off. Wow. And they turned him off as part of a canceling effort. The danger is you can have canceling efforts, which has never happened except for Stripe, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, people getting canceled everywhere. You can't have a canceling effect out there. That part makes me very worried. And this happened, my dude, this, this, this, we heard this story yesterday. Isn't it just random that the cash app guy gets stabbed to death and dies in San Francisco? I don't know. Let's wait. I until we see the films and everything.
Starting point is 00:56:05 Yeah, I hope. It's very weird though, isn't it? Like, that's, and the men out there. I hope it's not deep like that. I'm a horrible tragedy. 100%. And I don't hope to see one thing or another, but it appears to be a random mucking killing.
Starting point is 00:56:18 And I hope it's not something deep like that. Maybe there, but it's just random. Just to be clear, we are talking about central bank digital currencies, right? CBDCs. And I think the biggest concern that people have with this is more government control. And now it's control, not over your life, just you now they're controlling your money. It's over. And whether it's like your taxes, whether you can pay a parking ticket, they can freeze your assets, oh, you didn't get vaccinated well
Starting point is 00:56:46 So we're gonna we're gonna take your your wages garnish your wages. You didn't do it. We're gonna turn you off So we were talking yesterday about the Patriot Act and government surveillance and now this new thing that just been rolled out Less than a month ago that Charlie Kirk was talking about the Restrict Act It's and we're also seeing what's happening with the biggest concern with the banking right now is the nationalization of banks. It's like, oh, now banks are certain banks can't fail now. Too big to fail. This nationalization of money now with the central bank digital currencies, I think is a way
Starting point is 00:57:19 bigger concern that people understand. This is not Bitcoin. This is not, you know, just, hey, you know, your money can't be tracked. It's decentralized currency. No, this is centralized currency. Big brother coin. This is big brother coin, exactly.
Starting point is 00:57:34 So I think this is a big concern. My fear is that they're gonna market it in a way that it's like it's gonna make life easier. Pay your taxes online. Do everything online. This is some big brother shit. This is what happens in China. Because in China, don't they have something
Starting point is 00:57:49 called the social credit score? Yes. Isn't that something? I don't know, Rob, you can pull that up. Oh, you said something about she? You got the jam now. Like, you don't do anything that the government doesn't want you to do.
Starting point is 00:58:03 It's jail time. So here, China social credit gets in. to sign if you're exactly the third child. This is Russia. Can you read that out? Yeah, China's social credit system gives individuals businesses and government entities a credit score based on their trustworthiness. Worthiness. A bad credit score will have penalties like reduced access to credit and fewer
Starting point is 00:58:27 fewer business opportunities. And lumped. How do you measure? Yeah. And by the way, the establishment, the establishment in America loves seeing how China has such control over its people. That's their hero to see, hey, how can we have more control over our people? So none of them can come and push back with what we have to say and what our agenda is. Anyways, that's obviously an idea that a lot of people are concerned about. And it makes sense why you ought to be concerned about something like this.
Starting point is 00:58:56 Let free market do it because you can always have a choice to go somewhere else. If they do it, they can control you in ways free market cannot.
