And the ships are collectively estimated to be carrying collectively estimated to be carrying collectively estimated to be carrying over 20 million barrels of crude and over 20 million barrels of crude and over 20 million barrels of crude and fuel oil. That's up from the initial fuel oil. That's up from the initial fuel oil. That's up from the initial estimates of roughly 12 million. Many of estimates of roughly 12 million. Many of estimates of roughly 12 million. Many of them are operating in what they call them are operating in what they call them are operating in what they call dark mode, which is without a flag.

They have fleets uh fly without flags. They have no safety documentation or transponder no safety documentation or transponder no safety documentation or transponder signals. All of it's gone and they do it signals. All of it's gone and they do it signals. All of it's gone and they do it to evade detection. Some of the tankers to evade detection. Some of the tankers to evade detection. Some of the tankers uh that were being used are even using uh that were being used are even using uh that were being used are even using spoofing tactics. So they have fake spoofing tactics. So they have fake spoofing tactics. So they have fake names and positions. Uh and while their names and positions. Uh and while their names and positions. Uh and while their destinations right now still aren't destinations right now still aren't destinations right now still aren't entirely clear, their pre-blockade entirely clear, their pre-blockade entirely clear, their pre-blockade documents do indicate that their primary documents do indicate that their primary documents do indicate that their primary destination uh is China and then you've destination uh is China and then you've destination uh is China and then you've got a few that are going to Russia. So, got a few that are going to Russia. So, got a few that are going to Russia. So, it's unknown if the US is quietly it's unknown if the US is quietly it's unknown if the US is quietly allowing these shipments to go. Trump allowing these shipments to go. Trump allowing these shipments to go. Trump stated that major customers like China stated that major customers like China stated that major customers like China would continue receiving their oil. All would continue receiving their oil. All would continue receiving their oil. All of this stuff gets so wild because with of this stuff gets so wild because with of this stuff gets so wild because with one hand, you're going to smash people one hand, you're going to smash people one hand, you're going to smash people for doing this stuff. And on the other for doing this stuff. And on the other for doing this stuff. And on the other hand, you're going to be like, well, if hand, you're going to be like, well, if hand, you're going to be like, well, if we piss them off too much, we're going we piss them off too much, we're going we piss them off too much, we're going to have a real problem. So, you're to have a real problem. So, you're to have a real problem. So, you're constantly from a diplomatic perspective constantly from a diplomatic perspective constantly from a diplomatic perspective trying to piss them off just enough so trying to piss them off just enough so trying to piss them off just enough so that they know you're serious, but not that they know you're serious, but not that they know you're serious, but not so much that they actually retaliate. so much that they actually retaliate. so much that they actually retaliate. So, we'll find out if these vessels are So, we'll find out if these vessels are So, we'll find out if these vessels are just successfully evading naval just successfully evading naval just successfully evading naval enforcement or if this is something that enforcement or if this is something that enforcement or if this is something that Trump is sort of looking the other way Trump is sort of looking the other way Trump is sort of looking the other way on purpose. Um, now also in breaking on purpose. Um, now also in breaking on purpose. Um, now also in breaking news, the US did seize the Russian oil news, the US did seize the Russian oil news, the US did seize the Russian oil tanker Bella 1, at least according to tanker Bella 1, at least according to tanker Bella 1, at least according to reports today uh out in the Atlantic reports today uh out in the Atlantic reports today uh out in the Atlantic Ocean. The tanker was previously Ocean. The tanker was previously Ocean. The tanker was previously sanctioned in 2024 for transporting sanctioned in 2024 for transporting sanctioned in 2024 for transporting illicit oil. So yeah, look, this is illicit oil. So yeah, look, this is illicit oil. So yeah, look, this is really high tensions and I don't love really high tensions and I don't love really high tensions and I don't love the leaning into the World War II the leaning into the World War II the leaning into the World War II narrative, but you never know when this narrative, but you never know when this narrative, but you never know when this stuff starts. I will just say this that stuff starts. I will just say this that stuff starts. I will just say this that the tensions are high. This feels like the tensions are high. This feels like the tensions are high. This feels like here in California, this will make a lot here in California, this will make a lot here in California, this will make a lot of sense to people. You get a whole of sense to people. You get a whole of sense to people. You get a whole bunch of rain that grows all the brush. bunch of rain that grows all the brush. bunch of rain that grows all the brush. It looks green. You feel safe because It looks green. You feel safe because It looks green. You feel safe because everything is moist and all good. But everything is moist and all good. But everything is moist and all good. But then you go through a drought. Oh god, then you go through a drought. Oh god, then you go through a drought. Oh god, that word is like such a trigger for that word is like such a trigger for that word is like such a trigger for people. Uh, so it all seems like people. Uh, so it all seems like people. Uh, so it all seems like everything is fine until the drought everything is fine until the drought everything is fine until the drought comes and then you realize, oh, we just comes and then you realize, oh, we just comes and then you realize, oh, we just completely populated this with kindling completely populated this with kindling completely populated this with kindling >> and that's where we're at now. So, we've >> and that's where we're at now. So, we've >> and that's where we're at now. So, we've got all these conditions where nothing's got all these conditions where nothing's got all these conditions where nothing's I mean, I won't say nothing's burning. I mean, I won't say nothing's burning. I mean, I won't say nothing's burning. obviously what's going on in Russia obviously what's going on in Russia obviously what's going on in Russia Ukraine. Uh if Iran does collapse, Ukraine. Uh if Iran does collapse, Ukraine. Uh if Iran does collapse, that's almost certainly going to put the that's almost certainly going to put the that's almost certainly going to put the US in a stronger position to basically US in a stronger position to basically US in a stronger position to basically reduce China's non USControlled cheap reduce China's non USControlled cheap reduce China's non USControlled cheap oil stream by like it's something like oil stream by like it's something like oil stream by like it's something like 70%. 70%. 70%. >> And so it that that's if Iran goes down. >> And so it that that's if Iran goes down. >> And so it that that's if Iran goes down. So if that were to happen and China lost So if that were to happen and China lost So if that were to happen and China lost that vast majority of their cheap oil that vast majority of their cheap oil that vast majority of their cheap oil that's going to escalate tensions that's going to escalate tensions that's going to escalate tensions between the US and China. So it's one of between the US and China. So it's one of between the US and China. So it's one of those where man you've got a lot of those where man you've got a lot of those where man you've got a lot of kindling for things to pop off kindling for things to pop off kindling for things to pop off especially with the 2027 deadline where especially with the 2027 deadline where especially with the 2027 deadline where Xi said we are reclaiming Taiwan by Xi said we are reclaiming Taiwan by Xi said we are reclaiming Taiwan by then. But you've got Marco Rubio saying then. But you've got Marco Rubio saying then. But you've got Marco Rubio saying hey we've got commitments to China or to hey we've got commitments to China or to hey we've got commitments to China or to Taiwan and we do plan to stick with Taiwan and we do plan to stick with Taiwan and we do plan to stick with them. them. them. >> Japan is waiting in the wings too. Like >> Japan is waiting in the wings too. Like >> Japan is waiting in the wings too. Like if China goes there I'm not full if China goes there I'm not full if China goes there I'm not full threatened. So, it's it really is threatened. So, it's it really is threatened. So, it's it really is it's one of those Drew I wish I'd been it's one of those Drew I wish I'd been it's one of those Drew I wish I'd been paying to pol pay paying attention to paying to pol pay paying attention to paying to pol pay paying attention to politics for the last 20 years to know politics for the last 20 years to know politics for the last 20 years to know how much of this is like uh this kind of how much of this is like uh this kind of how much of this is like uh this kind of thing just repeats over and over and thing just repeats over and over and thing just repeats over and over and over. over. over. >> Uh if this is just social media makes it >> Uh if this is just social media makes it >> Uh if this is just social media makes it all so visible or if it really is all so visible or if it really is all so visible or if it really is unusually escalatory, which is what it unusually escalatory, which is what it unusually escalatory, which is what it feels like right now. There's just so feels like right now. There's just so feels like right now. There's just so many pockets of instability. Oh, and by many pockets of instability. Oh, and by many pockets of instability. Oh, and by the way, we have looming. We'll cover the way, we have looming. We'll cover the way, we have looming. We'll cover this more on Friday for sure, but we've this more on Friday for sure, but we've this more on Friday for sure, but we've got the looming Supreme Court decision got the looming Supreme Court decision got the looming Supreme Court decision around whether the tariffs are uh legal around whether the tariffs are uh legal around whether the tariffs are uh legal or not. And if the Supreme Court rules or not. And if the Supreme Court rules or not.

I know better than to think the market. I know better than to think the market. I know better than to think I know exactly what's going to happen, I know exactly what's going to happen, I know exactly what's going to happen, but I imagine something's going to but I imagine something's going to but I imagine something's going to happen, especially if there are any happen, especially if there are any happen, especially if there are any indications in the ruling that the indications in the ruling that the indications in the ruling that the government is going to have to like government is going to have to like government is going to have to like refund refund refund >> cuz that's [clears throat] like $600 >> cuz that's [clears throat] like $600 >> cuz that's [clears throat] like $600 billion dollar or some crazy numbers. billion dollar or some crazy numbers. billion dollar or some crazy numbers. So, [snorts] that could be wild. And So, [snorts] that could be wild. And So, [snorts] that could be wild. And Poly Market's clocking that at 77% Poly Market's clocking that at 77% Poly Market's clocking that at 77% chance. So, we'll see. Yeah, I'm hoping chance. So, we'll see. Yeah, I'm hoping chance. So, we'll see. Yeah, I'm hoping they don't play politics with that they don't play politics with that they don't play politics with that because we don't even have 600 billion because we don't even have 600 billion because we don't even have 600 billion to give back, let alone to, you know, to give back, let alone to, you know, to give back, let alone to, you know, get those gains back. get those gains back. get those gains back. >> There's so politics is merely frame of >> There's so politics is merely frame of >> There's so politics is merely frame of reference. So there's no way to not play reference. So there's no way to not play reference. So there's no way to not play politics. I used to think there was, but politics. I used to think there was, but politics. I used to think there was, but all of these judges are political all of these judges are political all of these judges are political animals and so they have a political animals and so they have a political animals and so they have a political frame of reference in that they have a frame of reference in that they have a frame of reference in that they have a bent to the right or the left and they bent to the right or the left and they bent to the right or the left and they get onto the Supreme Court because the get onto the Supreme Court because the get onto the Supreme Court because the president that's lucky enough to be in president that's lucky enough to be in president that's lucky enough to be in office when they have to make a office when they have to make a office when they have to make a replacement replacement replacement >> is going to pick them because they think >> is going to pick them because they think >> is going to pick them because they think that they're going to say the things that they're going to say the things that they're going to say the things that they want them to say. that they want them to say. that they want them to say. >> And so looking at these as political >> And so looking at these as political >> And so looking at these as political appointments is certainly the right way. appointments is certainly the right way. appointments is certainly the right way. you have very ideologically driven you have very ideologically driven you have very ideologically driven people on both sides in there constantly people on both sides in there constantly people on both sides in there constantly battling for the soul of the Supreme battling for the soul of the Supreme battling for the soul of the Supreme Court. So it's interesting though Court. So it's interesting though Court. So it's interesting though because this Supreme Court I think most because this Supreme Court I think most because this Supreme Court I think most people would agree would leans to the people would agree would leans to the people would agree would leans to the right and so the fact that poly market right and so the fact that poly market right and so the fact that poly market is like well despite that uh we don't is like well despite that uh we don't is like well despite that uh we don't expect them to go for Trump. So expect them to go for Trump. So expect them to go for Trump. So >> they and they had some interesting >> they and they had some interesting >> they and they had some interesting breaks against party lines especially breaks against party lines especially breaks against party lines especially with immigration things like that so with immigration things like that so with immigration things like that so Supreme Court isn't a layup for the Supreme Court isn't a layup for the Supreme Court isn't a layup for the right. right. right. >> I hope not.

This is exactly what happens when you run a exactly what happens when you run a exactly what happens when you run a country like it's a company. country like it's a company. country like it's a company. >> So, while I love having a president that >> So, while I love having a president that >> So, while I love having a president that actually understands business, I love actually understands business, I love actually understands business, I love having a president that understands how having a president that understands how having a president that understands how to get a deal done.

All of that stuff is absolutely wonderful. of that stuff is absolutely wonderful. of that stuff is absolutely wonderful. The problem is what you're seeing is The problem is what you're seeing is The problem is what you're seeing is somebody who's used to running a somebody who's used to running a somebody who's used to running a company. And in a company, you might company. And in a company, you might company. And in a company, you might have a board, but it's like you're gonna have a board, but it's like you're gonna have a board, but it's like you're gonna you are paid to like make bold you are paid to like make bold you are paid to like make bold decisions, do things to even if you've decisions, do things to even if you've decisions, do things to even if you've got people that are against you to do got people that are against you to do got people that are against you to do the thing, as long as it works, like the thing, as long as it works, like the thing, as long as it works, like everybody's happy. And you can't run a everybody's happy. And you can't run a everybody's happy. And you can't run a country like that. Like we are a country like that. Like we are a country like that. Like we are a democracy. And so no one is arguing that democracy. And so no one is arguing that democracy. And so no one is arguing that a dictatorship is more efficient. A a dictatorship is more efficient. A a dictatorship is more efficient. A dictatorship is efficiency at its dictatorship is efficiency at its dictatorship is efficiency at its finest. It's the very reason that finest. It's the very reason that finest. It's the very reason that companies are run, especially private companies are run, especially private companies are run, especially private companies, companies, companies, >> are run like a dictatorship. But the >> are run like a dictatorship. But the >> are run like a dictatorship. But the problem is, just like in a company, if I problem is, just like in a company, if I problem is, just like in a company, if I run this company off of a cliff, there's run this company off of a cliff, there's run this company off of a cliff, there's no one to stop me. But I will go off the no one to stop me. But I will go off the no one to stop me. But I will go off the cliff, cliff, cliff, when you run a country like that, you when you run a country like that, you when you run a country like that, you get something like Venezuela where it's get something like Venezuela where it's get something like Venezuela where it's like, yeah, Hugo Chavez ran the country like, yeah, Hugo Chavez ran the country like, yeah, Hugo Chavez ran the country into the ground.

So, without doing that, I think in the long without doing that, I think in the long without doing that, I think in the long run, it's going to end up weakening our run, it's going to end up weakening our run, it's going to end up weakening our position. I'm also very worried that position. I'm also very worried that position. I'm also very worried that what he's really going to do is what he's really going to do is what he's really going to do is overextend overextend overextend the empire uh and take on Venezuela, the empire uh and take on Venezuela, the empire uh and take on Venezuela, then take on Cuba, then start having then take on Cuba, then start having then take on Cuba, then start having beef with Europe, and then start having beef with Europe, and then start having beef with Europe, and then start having beef with Canada. And it's like you beef with Canada. And it's like you beef with Canada. And it's like you start doing all of that stuff and you start doing all of that stuff and you start doing all of that stuff and you just end up just end up just end up >> understand Roman Empire history of like >> understand Roman Empire history of like >> understand Roman Empire history of like >> Yeah.

And so you start doing twice as much. And so you start doing twice as much. And so you start doing that in a bunch of different places and that in a bunch of different places and that in a bunch of different places and it's like, yeah, maybe over a 10-year it's like, yeah, maybe over a 10-year it's like, yeah, maybe over a 10-year time horizon that works, but you're in a time horizon that works, but you're in a time horizon that works, but you're in a position right now where your debt to position right now where your debt to position right now where your debt to GDP ratio is such that in the next 10 GDP ratio is such that in the next 10 GDP ratio is such that in the next 10 years already you're going to go years already you're going to go years already you're going to go bankrupt. So you've got all this fraud bankrupt. So you've got all this fraud bankrupt. So you've got all this fraud happening in the US anyway. You start happening in the US anyway. You start happening in the US anyway. You start putting all these pieces onto the table putting all these pieces onto the table putting all these pieces onto the table and it's just like, bro, you need to be and it's just like, bro, you need to be and it's just like, bro, you need to be a little bit more careful. the US system a little bit more careful. the US system a little bit more careful. the US system is designed to protect you from things is designed to protect you from things is designed to protect you from things like that. like that. like that. >> Uh but he's running roughshod over that. >> Uh but he's running roughshod over that. >> Uh but he's running roughshod over that.

So it's like uh th this is one of those where there's going this is one of those where there's going this is one of those where there's going to need to be some restraint. Now I to need to be some restraint. Now I to need to be some restraint. Now I would love to see Trump self-restrain. would love to see Trump self-restrain. would love to see Trump self-restrain. That would be wonderful, but it's not in That would be wonderful, but it's not in That would be wonderful, but it's not in his character. And so that means that his character.

I'm at the very early stages of researching the very early stages of researching the very early stages of researching this, but I have a very bad feeling that this, but I have a very bad feeling that this, but I have a very bad feeling that what Canada has realized is that, okay, what Canada has realized is that, okay, what Canada has realized is that, okay, if we're going to be green, uh, we need if we're going to be green, uh, we need if we're going to be green, uh, we need to have very poorest borders, to have very poorest borders, to have very poorest borders, >> completely ignore money laundering, open >> completely ignore money laundering, open >> completely ignore money laundering, open up the one thing we've got going for us, up the one thing we've got going for us, up the one thing we've got going for us, which is our real estate market, and uh, which is our real estate market, and uh, which is our real estate market, and uh, we've got to let a lot of Chinese we've got to let a lot of Chinese we've got to let a lot of Chinese nationals come either come in physically nationals come either come in physically nationals come either come in physically or buy up a bunch of our assets and or buy up a bunch of our assets and or buy up a bunch of our assets and we're going to realize that Canada we're going to realize that Canada we're going to realize that Canada largely because of these hyperlberal largely because of these hyperlberal largely because of these hyperlberal policies, open borders, uh wanting to policies, open borders, uh wanting to policies, open borders, uh wanting to move away from um move away from um move away from um oil and uh non-green energy sources oil and uh non-green energy sources oil and uh non-green energy sources realize, well, we've got to generate our realize, well, we've got to generate our realize, well, we've got to generate our GDP from somewhere. And so there have GDP from somewhere. And so there have GDP from somewhere. And so there have been watchdog groups that have been been watchdog groups that have been been watchdog groups that have been signaling for years that Canada has been signaling for years that Canada has been signaling for years that Canada has been basically playing a financialized game basically playing a financialized game basically playing a financialized game uh without any of the guard rails.

My general consensus is that like chat. My general consensus is that like chat. My general consensus is that like Europe don't want these problems. Y'all Europe don't want these problems. Y'all Europe don't want these problems. Y'all haven't fought a real world since the haven't fought a real world since the haven't fought a real world since the 40s. Y'all can't even take care of your 40s. Y'all can't even take care of your 40s. Y'all can't even take care of your own stuff. We're still the number one own stuff.

Now, I don't want this to just be American hubris, but is this to just be American hubris, but is this to just be American hubris, but is it really like nobody can stop America it really like nobody can stop America it really like nobody can stop America and we're just uh we're going to keep and we're just uh we're going to keep and we're just uh we're going to keep expanding until we meet a sustainable expanding until we meet a sustainable expanding until we meet a sustainable force that can stop us? force that can stop us? force that can stop us? >> Yes, certainly. Right now, but remember, >> Yes, certainly. Right now, but remember, >> Yes, certainly. Right now, but remember, it's there are two things that will it's there are two things that will it's there are two things that will restrain a nation. Thing number one is restrain a nation. Thing number one is restrain a nation. Thing number one is just military might. You run into just military might. You run into just military might. You run into another military. We're not going to go another military. We're not going to go another military. We're not going to go [ __ ] roll up on China. We know that [ __ ] roll up on China. We know that [ __ ] roll up on China. We know that that would be suicide. that would be suicide. that would be suicide. >> But yeah, but like speaking of >> But yeah, but like speaking of >> But yeah, but like speaking of Greenland, I don't see anybody on the Greenland, I don't see anybody on the Greenland, I don't see anybody on the Greenland side rolling up with a tank Greenland side rolling up with a tank Greenland side rolling up with a tank trying to meet us. Correct. And I think trying to meet us. Correct. And I think trying to meet us. Correct. And I think Stephen Miller is right about that and Stephen Miller is right about that and Stephen Miller is right about that and we'll get to that in a second. The we'll get to that in a second. The we'll get to that in a second. The second thing is the own internal second thing is the own internal second thing is the own internal conscience of your country. So your conscience of your country. So your conscience of your country. So your country has a culture. It has a value country has a culture. It has a value country has a culture. It has a value system and it will stop you from system and it will stop you from system and it will stop you from overstepping that value system. overstepping that value system. overstepping that value system. >> So that's the thing that's going to keep >> So that's the thing that's going to keep >> So that's the thing that's going to keep us in check. So it becomes a question of us in check. So it becomes a question of us in check. So it becomes a question of how much is Trump willing to ignore the how much is Trump willing to ignore the how much is Trump willing to ignore the populace or how much is the populace populace or how much is the populace populace or how much is the populace behind him. Maybe he can sell it and behind him. Maybe he can sell it and behind him. Maybe he can sell it and everybody's like, "Yeah, let's go get everybody's like, "Yeah, let's go get everybody's like, "Yeah, let's go get Greenland." Greenland." Greenland." >> Okay. So those are the two forces that >> Okay. So those are the two forces that >> Okay. So those are the two forces that can restrain you. Now, in terms of him can restrain you. Now, in terms of him can restrain you. Now, in terms of him going into Greenland, if he's really going into Greenland, if he's really going into Greenland, if he's really that serious and really is that that serious and really is that that serious and really is that concerned about something, uh, because concerned about something, uh, because concerned about something, uh, because there you can look at maps and there you can look at maps and there you can look at maps and understand why Greenland really is so understand why Greenland really is so understand why Greenland really is so important. If you believe that Russia is important. If you believe that Russia is important. If you believe that Russia is a major problem for you, if you believe a major problem for you, if you believe a major problem for you, if you believe that Russia and China, Yeah. if you can that Russia and China, Yeah. if you can that Russia and China, Yeah. if you can look at your screens, uh, if you believe look at your screens, uh, if you believe look at your screens, uh, if you believe that Russia and China are pairing up that Russia and China are pairing up that Russia and China are pairing up against you, that any nuclear potential against you, that any nuclear potential against you, that any nuclear potential nuclear strike coming out of Russia nuclear strike coming out of Russia nuclear strike coming out of Russia would go directly over Greenland, and so would go directly over Greenland, and so would go directly over Greenland, and so you want the ability to intercept or you want the ability to intercept or you want the ability to intercept or shut it down or whatever. Uh, or you're shut it down or whatever. Uh, or you're shut it down or whatever. Uh, or you're just worried about the because I think just worried about the because I think just worried about the because I think there's enough melting going on that there's enough melting going on that there's enough melting going on that you're actually at some point going to you're actually at some point going to you're actually at some point going to be able to take ships like through a be able to take ships like through a be able to take ships like through a lane there. I have not researched that. lane there. I have not researched that. lane there. I have not researched that. Like I'm purely at the headline level, Like I'm purely at the headline level, Like I'm purely at the headline level, but people were saying that like Chinese but people were saying that like Chinese but people were saying that like Chinese and Russian ships might have a way and Russian ships might have a way and Russian ships might have a way that's faster than one of the other that's faster than one of the other that's faster than one of the other routes that you can take because of routes that you can take because of routes that you can take because of melting. If that ends up being true, and melting. If that ends up being true, and melting. If that ends up being true, and I don't know that it will, but if it I don't know that it will, but if it I don't know that it will, but if it ends up being true and you're trying to ends up being true and you're trying to ends up being true and you're trying to protect yourself, make sure that you can protect yourself, make sure that you can protect yourself, make sure that you can control those lanes, um, then I get why control those lanes, um, then I get why control those lanes, um, then I get why you get on a hobby horse about Greenland you get on a hobby horse about Greenland you get on a hobby horse about Greenland and you get really serious about taking and you get really serious about taking and you get really serious about taking back control of the Panama Canal and back control of the Panama Canal and back control of the Panama Canal and taking control of this area in Denmark. taking control of this area in Denmark. taking control of this area in Denmark. uh sorry, Greenland controlled by uh sorry, Greenland controlled by uh sorry, Greenland controlled by Denmark. So, I get it. Um and if you do Denmark. So, I get it. Um and if you do Denmark. So, I get it. Um and if you do it, certainly Europe isn't going to make it, certainly Europe isn't going to make it, certainly Europe isn't going to make that the flash point and push back that the flash point and push back that the flash point and push back militarily, but you break NATO at that militarily, but you break NATO at that militarily, but you break NATO at that point. You go, "Hey, NATO is this point. You go, "Hey, NATO is this point. You go, "Hey, NATO is this alliance where we all agree Russia's a alliance where we all agree Russia's a alliance where we all agree Russia's a problem and we're all going to protect problem and we're all going to protect problem and we're all going to protect each other should something bad happen." each other should something bad happen." each other should something bad happen." Well, if if you've got like a Well, if if you've got like a Well, if if you've got like a neighborhood watch and you're like, neighborhood watch and you're like, neighborhood watch and you're like, "Hey, we're good. We're going to keep "Hey, we're good. We're going to keep "Hey, we're good. We're going to keep everybody out." And then you break into everybody out." And then you break into everybody out." And then you break into your neighbor's house and take [ __ ] your neighbor's house and take [ __ ] your neighbor's house and take [ __ ] They're going to be like, "What the They're going to be like, "What the They're going to be like, "What the fuck?" like you ran the neighborhood fuck?" like you ran the neighborhood fuck?" like you ran the neighborhood watch. Like bro, like this is dead now. watch. Like bro, like this is dead now. watch. Like bro, like this is dead now. We can't trust you. And so Trump uh he's We can't trust you.

It's like would anything happen immediately if you would anything happen immediately if you would anything happen immediately if you break NATO? No. Will it play out over break NATO? No. Will it play out over break NATO? No. Will it play out over five or 10 years? Possibly. And that's five or 10 years? Possibly. And that's five or 10 years? Possibly. And that's where like breaking your allies now like where like breaking your allies now like where like breaking your allies now like just not a wise idea. But listen, at just not a wise idea.

Now, remember in this defensive area. Now, remember in this defensive area. Now, remember in this thought experiment, you, dear listener, thought experiment, you, dear listener, thought experiment, you, dear listener, agree with all of this. Then what do you agree with all of this. Then what do you agree with all of this. Then what do you do? Now, in that thought experiment, we do? Now, in that thought experiment, we do?

So, that's what's like I I think though. So, that's what's like I I think though. So, that's what's like I I think what is being told is different than the what is being told is different than the what is being told is different than the underlying story. So, I do think that underlying story. So, I do think that underlying story. So, I do think that there is something in a Manila envelope there is something in a Manila envelope there is something in a Manila envelope that if they slid across this desk, I'll that if they slid across this desk, I'll that if they slid across this desk, I'll be like, "Yep, we need Greenland. We be like, "Yep, we need Greenland. We be like, "Yep, we need Greenland. We need to go right now." But if you're need to go right now." But if you're need to go right now." But if you're just telling me it's for national just telling me it's for national just telling me it's for national security, we have two bases there security, we have two bases there security, we have two bases there already. We have the most bases in any already. We have the most bases in any already. We have the most bases in any country. We have bases in South America. country. We have bases in South America. country.

Oh, yeah. We got 30 billions of oil. So, I'm sure We got 30 billions of oil. So, I'm sure We got 30 billions of oil. So, I'm sure with Greenland's going to be the same with Greenland's going to be the same with Greenland's going to be the same things. National security. National things. National security. National things. National security. National security. Oh, we got a real Earth deal security. Oh, we got a real Earth deal security. Oh, we got a real Earth deal for the next 40 years. Like, there's for the next 40 years. Like, there's for the next 40 years. Like, there's definitely something else that we're not definitely something else that we're not definitely something else that we're not being shown that's not being talked being shown that's not being talked being shown that's not being talked about that is fueling this motivation about that is fueling this motivation about that is fueling this motivation cuz I don't buy the whole security cuz I don't buy the whole security cuz I don't buy the whole security guarantee thing. guarantee thing. guarantee thing. >> Well, so anytime you can advantage >> Well, so anytime you can advantage >> Well, so anytime you can advantage yourself economically, that's going to yourself economically, that's going to yourself economically, that's going to sweeten the pot for sure. And so if sweeten the pot for sure. And so if sweeten the pot for sure. And so if Trump is looking at my tariffs might be Trump is looking at my tariffs might be Trump is looking at my tariffs might be uh going away and I've got to by uh going away and I've got to by uh going away and I've got to by midterms, I've got to have made things midterms, I've got to have made things midterms, I've got to have made things better for the American people. I mean, better for the American people. I mean, better for the American people. I mean, it's certainly possible that it's just it's certainly possible that it's just it's certainly possible that it's just like, okay, I've got a China problem. Uh like, okay, I've got a China problem. Uh like, okay, I've got a China problem. Uh they can choke me out from a rare earth they can choke me out from a rare earth they can choke me out from a rare earth mineral perspective. I need to solve mineral perspective.

I don't think that they would rush to do anything. I think the look early to do anything. I think the look early to do anything. I think the look early days of me thinking through how this days of me thinking through how this days of me thinking through how this would play out 100%. The odds that I would play out 100%. The odds that I would play out 100%. The odds that I think this exact same way in a month are think this exact same way in a month are think this exact same way in a month are virtually zero. But my initial thinking virtually zero. But my initial thinking virtually zero. But my initial thinking is it would be some sort of soft is it would be some sort of soft is it would be some sort of soft relationship with a ton of cover story relationship with a ton of cover story relationship with a ton of cover story where you're doing something like uh where you're doing something like uh where you're doing something like uh turning a blind eye to um Canada's turning a blind eye to um Canada's turning a blind eye to um Canada's relationship with China that they either relationship with China that they either relationship with China that they either start selling them oil or whatever. start selling them oil or whatever. start selling them oil or whatever. Uh, and so you're not directly Uh, and so you're not directly Uh, and so you're not directly getting in bed with China cuz I think getting in bed with China cuz I think getting in bed with China cuz I think that puts them in a really weird that puts them in a really weird that puts them in a really weird position, but you are you have to find position, but you are you have to find position, but you are you have to find ways to make up for what you lose if you ways to make up for what you lose if you ways to make up for what you lose if you get into open hostilities with America. get into open hostilities with America. get into open hostilities with America. But honestly, I think the most likely But honestly, I think the most likely But honestly, I think the most likely scenario is they just don't end up in scenario is they just don't end up in scenario is they just don't end up in open hostilities with America. I think open hostilities with America. I think open hostilities with America. I think the most likely scenario is that Trump the most likely scenario is that Trump the most likely scenario is that Trump is trying to bully them. He'll only is trying to bully them. He'll only is trying to bully them. He'll only bully them so far. he'll know to back bully them so far. he'll know to back bully them so far. he'll know to back off enough that Denmark will strike some off enough that Denmark will strike some off enough that Denmark will strike some sort of cooperative deal where it's like sort of cooperative deal where it's like sort of cooperative deal where it's like you don't get to call it Trump land but you don't get to call it Trump land but you don't get to call it Trump land but like you do get a move over security like you do get a move over security like you do get a move over security forces or whatever or we run it jointly forces or whatever or we run it jointly forces or whatever or we run it jointly or I mean it is possible that they sell or I mean it is possible that they sell or I mean it is possible that they sell it.

Does that that change our position? Does that that change our position? Does that impact? Is that motivating where all impact? Is that motivating where all impact? Is that motivating where all these wars are coming from? Because we these wars are coming from? Because we these wars are coming from?

So when you a sign of a long-term trend. So when you a sign of a long-term trend. So when you print money, people are going to slowly print money, people are going to slowly print money, people are going to slowly wake up to the fact that they absolutely wake up to the fact that they absolutely wake up to the fact that they absolutely must get out of that currency. Needless must get out of that currency. Needless must get out of that currency. Needless to say, I've been banging this drum now to say, I've been banging this drum now to say, I've been banging this drum now for almost two years. for almost two years. for almost two years. >> It's like, you've got to react. And so >> It's like, you've got to react. And so >> It's like, you've got to react. And so people are reacting. And for me, even people are reacting. And for me, even people are reacting. And for me, even seeing the Chinese just aggressive seeing the Chinese just aggressive seeing the Chinese just aggressive acquisition of gold, I was like, whoa, acquisition of gold, I was like, whoa, acquisition of gold, I was like, whoa, like they're really going to make a play like they're really going to make a play like they're really going to make a play to back the yuan with gold. And to back the yuan with gold. And to back the yuan with gold. And in that scenario, in that scenario, in that scenario, that's another person who's like, "Yeah, that's another person who's like, "Yeah, that's another person who's like, "Yeah, I'm not buying US debt." If Japan isn't I'm not buying US debt." If Japan isn't I'm not buying US debt." If Japan isn't able to buy US debt, if Japan has to able to buy US debt, if Japan has to able to buy US debt, if Japan has to start selling US debt, oh god. Uh now start selling US debt, oh god. Uh now start selling US debt, oh god. Uh now all of a sudden the US is back in all of a sudden the US is back in all of a sudden the US is back in hyperprint mode. You've got people at hyperprint mode. You've got people at hyperprint mode. You've got people at the Fed saying that we're going to lower the Fed saying that we're going to lower the Fed saying that we're going to lower rates by um 1%. rates by um 1%. rates by um 1%. >> So 100 bips. And it's like, oh my god, >> So 100 bips. And it's like, oh my god, >> So 100 bips. And it's like, oh my god, if we start doing that, the amount of if we start doing that, the amount of if we start doing that, the amount of debt that will be created, which is the debt that will be created, which is the debt that will be created, which is the same as printing money, is going to be same as printing money, is going to be same as printing money, is going to be absurd. Absurd. So yeah, that's what you absurd. Absurd. So yeah, that's what you absurd. Absurd. So yeah, that's what you see reflected here. This is people see reflected here. This is people see reflected here. This is people going, "Oh, I actually have to do going, "Oh, I actually have to do going, "Oh, I actually have to do something about the fact that over the something about the fact that over the something about the fact that over the last 5 years, we have inflated the US last 5 years, we have inflated the US last 5 years, we have inflated the US money supply by 25%." That China is now money supply by 25%." That China is now money supply by 25%." That China is now inflating their money supply. I don't inflating their money supply. I don't inflating their money supply. I don't know the exact percent, but like at know the exact percent, but like at know the exact percent, but like at outrageous COVID levels. So, what do you outrageous COVID levels. So, what do you outrageous COVID levels. So, what do you do when that happens? You've got to get do when that happens? You've got to get do when that happens? You've got to get into assets. So, um, gold has been into assets. So, um, gold has been into assets. So, um, gold has been around for 2,000 years. Crypto obviously around for 2,000 years. Crypto obviously around for 2,000 years. Crypto obviously or Bitcoin, I should be very specific, a or Bitcoin, I should be very specific, a or Bitcoin, I should be very specific, a new fan favorite.

I'm not saying, you know, throw it into gold, but it seems like, correct it into gold, but it seems like, correct it into gold, but it seems like, correct me if I'm wrong, the dollar's on the me if I'm wrong, the dollar's on the me if I'm wrong, the dollar's on the decline. That would mean from a global decline. That would mean from a global decline. That would mean from a global perspective, more people are going to perspective, more people are going to perspective, more people are going to buy into gold as opposed to the dollar buy into gold as opposed to the dollar buy into gold as opposed to the dollar that they would have done 20 years ago. that they would have done 20 years ago. that they would have done 20 years ago.

What they need to do is their money. What they need to do is their money. What they need to do is understand the physics of money and then understand the physics of money and then understand the physics of money and then make their own best estimation of where make their own best estimation of where make their own best estimation of where this is going to go. I really want to be this is going to go. I really want to be this is going to go. I really want to be useful to people. So I'll give like useful to people. So I'll give like useful to people.

From the way that I understand the >> Okay. From the way that I understand the >> Okay. From the way that I understand the physics of money, the US dollar is physics of money, the US dollar is physics of money, the US dollar is cooked. You would have to make just cooked.

If you don't balance the budget, I just assume the balance the budget, I just assume the balance the budget, I just assume the dollar's cooked. Now listen, there are dollar's cooked. Now listen, there are dollar's cooked. Now listen, there are things that we could do to grow our way things that we could do to grow our way things that we could do to grow our way out of this for sure, but when I see a out of this for sure, but when I see a out of this for sure, but when I see a 77% chance that tariffs are going away, 77% chance that tariffs are going away, 77% chance that tariffs are going away, there goes a huge stream of revenue. there goes a huge stream of revenue. there goes a huge stream of revenue. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Uh when I see that we're expecting to >> Uh when I see that we're expecting to >> Uh when I see that we're expecting to lower the interest rate by 100 bips, lower the interest rate by 100 bips, lower the interest rate by 100 bips, which is a like if you're at 3%, that's which is a like if you're at 3%, that's which is a like if you're at 3%, that's going down to 2%. You're not lowering it going down to 2%. You're not lowering it going down to 2%. You're not lowering it by a percent, which is why people speak by a percent, which is why people speak by a percent, which is why people speak in bips. Anyway, hopefully people in bips. Anyway, hopefully people in bips. Anyway, hopefully people understand what that means. Uh, so understand what that means. Uh, so understand what that means. Uh, so when you make money cheap, money floods when you make money cheap, money floods when you make money cheap, money floods into the system. Money gets created out into the system. Money gets created out into the system. Money gets created out of thin air. When you make money cheap, of thin air. When you make money cheap, of thin air. When you make money cheap, money gets created out of thin air, just money gets created out of thin air, just money gets created out of thin air, just to be very clear, it does so via debt, to be very clear, it does so via debt, to be very clear, it does so via debt, but nonetheless, it gets created out of but nonetheless, it gets created out of but nonetheless, it gets created out of thin air. thin air. thin air. >> So that means that we're going to be >> So that means that we're going to be >> So that means that we're going to be creating more and more money. creating more and more money. creating more and more money. >> Uh, which means that the dollar is going >> Uh, which means that the dollar is going >> Uh, which means that the dollar is going to be worth less and less unless we use to be worth less and less unless we use to be worth less and less unless we use that debt to be hyperproductive. meaning that debt to be hyperproductive. meaning that debt to be hyperproductive. meaning we create more tangible things that we create more tangible things that we create more tangible things that people want to buy. And if we do that at people want to buy. And if we do that at people want to buy. And if we do that at a higher rate, then we generate debt and a higher rate, then we generate debt and a higher rate, then we generate debt and money printing and all that. Um, great. money printing and all that. Um, great. money printing and all that. Um, great. But we won't. And so that means that the But we won't. And so that means that the But we won't. And so that means that the dollar is going to continue to decline. dollar is going to continue to decline. dollar is going to continue to decline. As the dollar continues to decline and As the dollar continues to decline and As the dollar continues to decline and people realize that the US is just people realize that the US is just people realize that the US is just inflating, inflating, inflating, they inflating, inflating, inflating, they inflating, inflating, inflating, they are going to increasingly move away from are going to increasingly move away from are going to increasingly move away from debt and US debt. And that puts the US debt and US debt. And that puts the US debt and US debt. And that puts the US in a very difficult position because we in a very difficult position because we in a very difficult position because we have so much debt. Um we can't have have so much debt. Um we can't have have so much debt. Um we can't have interest rates go up because if interest interest rates go up because if interest interest rates go up because if interest rates go up, this is something called rates go up, this is something called rates go up, this is something called fiscal dominance. If interest rates go fiscal dominance. If interest rates go fiscal dominance. If interest rates go up, then we're in a position where we up, then we're in a position where we up, then we're in a position where we can't afford the debt payments. And so, can't afford the debt payments. And so, can't afford the debt payments. And so, um, you instead choose the lesser of two um, you instead choose the lesser of two um, you instead choose the lesser of two evils, which is instead of an instant, evils, which is instead of an instant, evils, which is instead of an instant, um, seize up of the US credit system, um, seize up of the US credit system, um, seize up of the US credit system, you slowly steal all the money from you slowly steal all the money from you slowly steal all the money from everybody that holds US dollars. And so, everybody that holds US dollars. And so, everybody that holds US dollars. And so, they will choose to do that. So that they will choose to do that. So that they will choose to do that. So that tells me as somebody trying to map the tells me as somebody trying to map the tells me as somebody trying to map the physics of money and not giving you physics of money and not giving you physics of money and not giving you investment advice, but just the physics investment advice, but just the physics investment advice, but just the physics of money say uh you want to be in assets of money say uh you want to be in assets of money say uh you want to be in assets that can't be inflated that are likely that can't be inflated that are likely that can't be inflated that are likely to hold their value or go up over time. to hold their value or go up over time. to hold their value or go up over time.

People need to really think about stock. People need to really think about stock. People need to really think about that as they uh map their sense of what that as they uh map their sense of what that as they uh map their sense of what the physics are here. Um, but certainly the physics are here. Um, but certainly the physics are here. Um, but certainly not sitting in cash. That is like the not sitting in cash. That is like the not sitting in cash. That is like the very simple punch line. very simple punch line. very simple punch line. >> Not a savings account, not a bank >> Not a savings account, not a bank >> Not a savings account, not a bank account and put it somewhere. account and put it somewhere. account and put it somewhere. >> Unfortunately, you can't because they're >> Unfortunately, you can't because they're >> Unfortunately, you can't because they're just going to inflate that money away. just going to inflate that money away. just going to inflate that money away. >> Uh, >> Uh, >> Uh, does there is there anything tangible on does there is there anything tangible on does there is there anything tangible on our day-to-day perspective that gold our day-to-day perspective that gold our day-to-day perspective that gold becoming now the global reserve currency becoming now the global reserve currency becoming now the global reserve currency actually impact us? Is this just a actually impact us? Is this just a actually impact us? Is this just a >> It just says that this really is the >> It just says that this really is the >> It just says that this really is the direction that it's going. And so once direction that it's going. And so once direction that it's going. And so once people once more and more people wake up people once more and more people wake up people once more and more people wake up to the fact that this is a direction to the fact that this is a direction to the fact that this is a direction that it's going, it will really flood in that it's going, it will really flood in that it's going, it will really flood in for a while and then other people will for a while and then other people will for a while and then other people will go there's no more money to be made here go there's no more money to be made here go there's no more money to be made here because everybody's in and your shoe because everybody's in and your shoe because everybody's in and your shoe shine boy is going to call you up next shine boy is going to call you up next shine boy is going to call you up next time and be like hey you should get into time and be like hey you should get into time and be like hey you should get into gold and that's when you're like okay no gold and that's when you're like okay no gold and that's when you're like okay no more buying gold. Uh so and you're going more buying gold. Uh so and you're going more buying gold. Uh so and you're going to have to look for that next to have to look for that next to have to look for that next opportunity. And so if I could just get opportunity. And so if I could just get opportunity. And so if I could just get people to understand the stock market is people to understand the stock market is people to understand the stock market is smart money versus dumb money. Mhm. smart money versus dumb money. Mhm. smart money versus dumb money.

And so you keep getting wiped out. And so people are smart money is always chasing people are smart money is always chasing people are smart money is always chasing a return. And so they're just looking at a return. And so they're just looking at a return. And so they're just looking at macro trends like this to find the place macro trends like this to find the place macro trends like this to find the place where smart money can get there a little where smart money can get there a little where smart money can get there a little bit sooner. Wait for the dumb money to bit sooner. Wait for the dumb money to bit sooner. Wait for the dumb money to come in. It's what's known as exit come in. It's what's known as exit come in.

By definition, by structure, it is By definition, by structure, it is By definition, by structure, it is architected to be that way. That's what architected to be that way. That's what architected to be that way. That's what inflation is. Inflation is the inflation is. Inflation is the inflation is. Inflation is the government acknowledging, I'm going to government acknowledging, I'm going to government acknowledging, I'm going to steal your money slowly over time. So, steal your money slowly over time. So, steal your money slowly over time. So, you better own assets that go up in you better own assets that go up in you better own assets that go up in value over time. You can sort of think value over time. You can sort of think value over time. You can sort of think of this as the ultimate tax loophole. of this as the ultimate tax loophole. of this as the ultimate tax loophole. that the stock market exists is the way that the stock market exists is the way that the stock market exists is the way that the vast majority of humans avoid that the vast majority of humans avoid that the vast majority of humans avoid the government confiscating their money the government confiscating their money the government confiscating their money through inflation. They just find an through inflation. They just find an through inflation. They just find an asset class that goes up more over time asset class that goes up more over time asset class that goes up more over time than the um the government is able to than the um the government is able to than the um the government is able to steal through inflation. So the question steal through inflation. So the question steal through inflation. So the question becomes, well, why does it go up over becomes, well, why does it go up over becomes, well, why does it go up over time? And it will go up for one of two time? And it will go up for one of two time? And it will go up for one of two reasons. It will go up because of reasons. It will go up because of reasons. It will go up because of innovation, which is why I talk about innovation, which is why I talk about innovation, which is why I talk about innovation being one of the guiding innovation being one of the guiding innovation being one of the guiding lights. This is why America is better lights. This is why America is better lights. This is why America is better than every other [ __ ] country on than every other [ __ ] country on than every other [ __ ] country on planet Earth. Because we have optimized planet Earth. Because we have optimized planet Earth. Because we have optimized the structure of our government for the structure of our government for the structure of our government for innovation. And that means private innovation. And that means private innovation. And that means private ownership. And all the people in Momby's ownership. And all the people in Momby's ownership. And all the people in Momby's cabinet, I'm looking at you cabinet, I'm looking at you cabinet, I'm looking at you [ __ ] who are going to rob us of [ __ ] who are going to rob us of [ __ ] who are going to rob us of innovation. innovation. innovation. But these things go up for either But these things go up for either But these things go up for either innovation or because people so many innovation or because people so many innovation or because people so many people are fleeing the money printing. people are fleeing the money printing. people are fleeing the money printing. The inflation makes it look like the The inflation makes it look like the The inflation makes it look like the value is going up. It's not really going value is going up. It's not really going value is going up. It's not really going up in value. It's just keeping up with up in value. It's just keeping up with up in value. It's just keeping up with inflation. So you're all because if inflation. So you're all because if inflation. So you're all because if you've got more money chasing the same you've got more money chasing the same you've got more money chasing the same number of goods, the price will number of goods, the price will number of goods, the price will naturally go up. The value has not naturally go up. The value has not naturally go up. The value has not increased. For that you need innovation. increased. For that you need innovation. increased. For that you need innovation. But the price has gone up. So, at a But the price has gone up. So, at a But the price has gone up. So, at a minimum, you've got your money stored minimum, you've got your money stored minimum, you've got your money stored somewhere where you're keeping up with somewhere where you're keeping up with somewhere where you're keeping up with inflation. So, it's always a question of inflation. So, it's always a question of inflation. So, it's always a question of if inflation is whatever 25%, you better if inflation is whatever 25%, you better if inflation is whatever 25%, you better be making 30% on your money. If be making 30% on your money. If be making 30% on your money. If inflation is 3%, you better be making at inflation is 3%, you better be making at inflation is 3%, you better be making at least 4% on your money. Otherwise, least 4% on your money. Otherwise, least 4% on your money. Otherwise, you're actually treading water or going you're actually treading water or going you're actually treading water or going backwards even though theoretically it backwards even though theoretically it backwards even though theoretically it looks like you're up. You have to beat looks like you're up. You have to beat looks like you're up. You have to beat inflation. inflation. inflation. >> Nice. Uh, can we hit Augustine Max super >> Nice.

Like what's the line between corporate protection so line between corporate protection so line between corporate protection so that we can do the thing that is quote that we can do the thing that is quote that we can do the thing that is quote unquote helping the greater good versus unquote helping the greater good versus unquote helping the greater good versus hey, I bought your product, I put it in hey, I bought your product, I put it in hey, I bought your product, I put it in my body, I am now sick. You should help my body, I am now sick. You should help my body, I am now sick. You should help like rectify that. So I like rectify that. So I like rectify that. So I get why there will be certain things get why there will be certain things get why there will be certain things where we say okay this thing take a where we say okay this thing take a where we say okay this thing take a cancer treatment drug cancer treatment drug cancer treatment drug >> a thing where we just go we don't know >> a thing where we just go we don't know >> a thing where we just go we don't know but the consequences are so dire that if but the consequences are so dire that if but the consequences are so dire that if we don't continue to advance this if we we don't continue to advance this if we we don't continue to advance this if we don't create ways to incentivize don't create ways to incentivize don't create ways to incentivize companies to put money into this we're companies to put money into this we're companies to put money into this we're going to be in a worse position than we going to be in a worse position than we going to be in a worse position than we would otherwise be. And I would love to would otherwise be. And I would love to would otherwise be. And I would love to see those kind of medical breakthroughs see those kind of medical breakthroughs see those kind of medical breakthroughs happen. uh and when companies are happen. uh and when companies are happen. uh and when companies are getting sued to death, you're certainly getting sued to death, you're certainly getting sued to death, you're certainly going to limit the amount of innovation. going to limit the amount of innovation. going to limit the amount of innovation. I think that we have a latigious problem I think that we have a latigious problem I think that we have a latigious problem in uh America. So, anything that's like in uh America. So, anything that's like in uh America. So, anything that's like reducing that at least a little bit I reducing that at least a little bit I reducing that at least a little bit I like in theory. Now, the problem is in like in theory. Now, the problem is in like in theory. Now, the problem is in practice with this one, it was like practice with this one, it was like practice with this one, it was like there was a profit incentive that money there was a profit incentive that money there was a profit incentive that money was being thrown around in Congress and was being thrown around in Congress and was being thrown around in Congress and all of that stuff from the drug all of that stuff from the drug all of that stuff from the drug companies and all that. And so that companies and all that. And so that companies and all that. And so that makes me deeply uncomfortable. You give makes me deeply uncomfortable. You give makes me deeply uncomfortable. You give them an out here. You give them an them an out here. You give them an them an out here. You give them an ability to raise money and then a way to ability to raise money and then a way to ability to raise money and then a way to use that money in government to keep use that money in government to keep use that money in government to keep getting like what they want. That's getting like what they want. That's getting like what they want. That's where I'm like, if there was no money in where I'm like, if there was no money in where I'm like, if there was no money in politics politics politics >> and so these companies couldn't >> and so these companies couldn't >> and so these companies couldn't influence politicians, then it's like, influence politicians, then it's like, influence politicians, then it's like, yeah, you would have a checks and yeah, you would have a checks and yeah, you would have a checks and balances system. You're not suing these balances system. You're not suing these balances system. You're not suing these people into oblivion, but you're making people into oblivion, but you're making people into oblivion, but you're making sure that tests are being run or at sure that tests are being run or at sure that tests are being run or at least not being stopped or buried. Uh least not being stopped or buried. Uh least not being stopped or buried. Uh that people understand what the risks that people understand what the risks that people understand what the risks are. And so, yeah, cool. Like, let are. And so, yeah, cool. Like, let are. And so, yeah, cool. Like, let things be classified. Like, this is an things be classified. Like, this is an things be classified. Like, this is an experimental drug. You take this one at experimental drug. You take this one at experimental drug. You take this one at your own risk. this one's been around your own risk. this one's been around your own risk. this one's been around for 10 years, so there is liability on for 10 years, so there is liability on for 10 years, so there is liability on this because by now they should have this because by now they should have this because by now they should have figured out what the problem is. Or the figured out what the problem is. Or the figured out what the problem is. Or the drug company itself is saying, "Ah, drug company itself is saying, "Ah, drug company itself is saying, "Ah, we're leaving this one in the we're leaving this one in the we're leaving this one in the experimental beyond the like 10-year experimental beyond the like 10-year experimental beyond the like 10-year period. So now it's like, okay, this period. So now it's like, okay, this period. So now it's like, okay, this one's a [ __ ] red flag because the one's a [ __ ] red flag because the one's a [ __ ] red flag because the company has had it for 10 years and company has had it for 10 years and company has had it for 10 years and they're still not willing to like take they're still not willing to like take they're still not willing to like take liability risk." Yeah. Yeah. That one's liability risk." Yeah. Yeah. That one's liability risk." Yeah. Yeah. That one's now in a category of its own. There are now in a category of its own. There are now in a category of its own. There are things that you could do like that where things that you could do like that where things that you could do like that where you wouldn't create some of the perverse you wouldn't create some of the perverse you wouldn't create some of the perverse incentives that we have now, which is eh incentives that we have now, which is eh incentives that we have now, which is eh blind yourself or intentionally blind blind yourself or intentionally blind blind yourself or intentionally blind the public to all of the dangers because the public to all of the dangers because the public to all of the dangers because it makes so much money and you can just it makes so much money and you can just it makes so much money and you can just splash that money around in um the splash that money around in um the splash that money around in um the government to keep getting what you government to keep getting what you government to keep getting what you want. That's where this stuff just goes want. That's where this stuff just goes want. That's where this stuff just goes toxic so fast. toxic so fast. toxic so fast. >> Uh yeah, well, one of those things. >> Uh yeah, well, one of those things. >> Uh yeah, well, one of those things. We'll see what happens. Um, we got some We'll see what happens. Um, we got some We'll see what happens. Um, we got some uh vaccine minimalist in the chat. So, uh vaccine minimalist in the chat. So, uh vaccine minimalist in the chat. So, shout out to you guys doing the hard shout out to you guys doing the hard shout out to you guys doing the hard work out there. Um, all right. I want to work out there. Um, all right. I want to work out there. Um, all right. I want to jump over to the poly market. We talked jump over to the poly market. We talked jump over to the poly market. We talked about it at the beginning. Um, the 77% about it at the beginning. Um, the 77% about it at the beginning. Um, the 77% chance that um the Supreme Court would chance that um the Supreme Court would chance that um the Supreme Court would overturn terrorists. Um, what would that overturn terrorists. Um, what would that overturn terrorists. Um, what would that mean in your perspective if the Supreme mean in your perspective if the Supreme mean in your perspective if the Supreme Court were to come back and overturn Court were to come back and overturn Court were to come back and overturn that? If they overturn it and say that that? If they overturn it and say that that? If they overturn it and say that there need to be restitutions paid to there need to be restitutions paid to there need to be restitutions paid to the companies that the tariffs were the companies that the tariffs were the companies that the tariffs were collected from, I think it is going to collected from, I think it is going to collected from, I think it is going to be detrimental to um the stability of be detrimental to um the stability of be detrimental to um the stability of the stock market. So will there be like the stock market. So will there be like the stock market. So will there be like some companies go up in value because we some companies go up in value because we some companies go up in value because we um they were so hindered by the tariffs? um they were so hindered by the tariffs? um they were so hindered by the tariffs? Very possibly. um does something Very possibly. um does something Very possibly. um does something negative happen because would something negative happen because would something negative happen because would something negative happen to the stock market with negative happen to the stock market with negative happen to the stock market with the tariffs going away? It's the the tariffs going away? It's the the tariffs going away? It's the restitution that puts a huge question restitution that puts a huge question restitution that puts a huge question mark on things for me because the mark on things for me because the mark on things for me because the government is going to lose revenue. The government is going to lose revenue. The government is going to lose revenue. The government is therefore going to have to government is therefore going to have to government is therefore going to have to make up that revenue. They're going to make up that revenue. They're going to make up that revenue. They're going to make up that revenue almost certainly by make up that revenue almost certainly by make up that revenue almost certainly by printing money. Uh so that's going to printing money. Uh so that's going to printing money. Uh so that's going to drive the um bonds drive the um bonds drive the um bonds down. It will drive the stock market up. down. It will drive the stock market up. down. It will drive the stock market up. So, it'll be interesting to see how this So, it'll be interesting to see how this So, it'll be interesting to see how this plays out. This is one of those flash plays out. This is one of those flash plays out. This is one of those flash points I haven't seen before and I points I haven't seen before and I points I haven't seen before and I haven't studied. So, I don't know what haven't studied. So, I don't know what haven't studied. So, I don't know what it's going to h what is going to happen. it's going to h what is going to happen. it's going to h what is going to happen. Um, so Um, so Um, so >> 78% too. >> 78% too. >> 78% too. >> When I get question marks over it, I get >> When I get question marks over it, I get >> When I get question marks over it, I get nervous because I just don't know how nervous because I just don't know how nervous because I just don't know how it's going to play out. So, we'll see. I it's going to play out. So, we'll see. I it's going to play out. So, we'll see. I think this one is there. I've already think this one is there. I've already think this one is there. I've already seen a bunch of people say, "Oh, I know seen a bunch of people say, "Oh, I know seen a bunch of people say, "Oh, I know exactly how this is going to play out." exactly how this is going to play out." exactly how this is going to play out." I don't buy that. But, we'll see. I don't buy that. But, we'll see. I don't buy that. But, we'll see. And um And um And um because it's new revenue though, I don't because it's new revenue though, I don't because it's new revenue though, I don't feel like it would impact um the feel like it would impact um the feel like it would impact um the government as much. And then on the government as much. And then on the government as much. And then on the other side from the private sector, that other side from the private sector, that other side from the private sector, that could be an indicator of prices then could be an indicator of prices then could be an indicator of prices then dropping. So that would be consumer. dropping. So that would be consumer. dropping.

Not that they stack, million shortfall. Not that they stack, million shortfall. Not that they stack, but he thought he had just found a way but he thought he had just found a way but he thought he had just found a way to deal with 600 billion. to deal with 600 billion. to deal with 600 billion. >> Now that goes away. [ __ ] Now what am I >> Now that goes away. [ __ ] Now what am I >> Now that goes away. [ __ ] Now what am I going to do to start meeting that going to do to start meeting that going to do to start meeting that shortfall? Because he was counting on shortfall? Because he was counting on shortfall? Because he was counting on this being able to start bringing down this being able to start bringing down this being able to start bringing down some of the debt. He was counting on some of the debt. He was counting on some of the debt. He was counting on this to win the midterms. In my opinion, this to win the midterms. In my opinion, this to win the midterms. In my opinion, he's not saying this, but my opinion, he he's not saying this, but my opinion, he he's not saying this, but my opinion, he was counting on either reducing interest was counting on either reducing interest was counting on either reducing interest payments or not interest payments, payments or not interest payments, payments or not interest payments, reducing income tax or just cutting stim reducing income tax or just cutting stim reducing income tax or just cutting stim checks to people. Uh, and so that would checks to people. Uh, and so that would checks to people. Uh, and so that would certainly go away. The government will certainly go away. The government will certainly go away. The government will almost certainly be sued by a gaggle of almost certainly be sued by a gaggle of almost certainly be sued by a gaggle of companies who are going to say, "This companies who are going to say, "This companies who are going to say, "This was declared illegal. You wrongfully was declared illegal. You wrongfully was declared illegal. You wrongfully confiscated my money. It cost me all confiscated my money. It cost me all confiscated my money.

I'm optimized for truth and not time. I'm optimized for truth and not time. I'm optimized for truth and not like a quick answer. And I was like, like a quick answer.

And so I was like, listen, giving you 30 minutes seems like listen, giving you 30 minutes seems like listen, giving you 30 minutes seems like more than enough time for you to find more than enough time for you to find more than enough time for you to find the answer. Does it really take that the answer. Does it really take that the answer. Does it really take that long? And he had some other smartass long? And he had some other smartass long? And he had some other smartass remark. And so then I opened up in a new remark. And so then I opened up in a new remark. And so then I opened up in a new window, tried it again, and it still window, tried it again, and it still window, tried it again, and it still kept just [ __ ] hanging. I don't know kept just [ __ ] hanging. I don't know kept just [ __ ] hanging. I don't know why it it wasn't giving me a bad answer. why it it wasn't giving me a bad answer. why it it wasn't giving me a bad answer. It just wasn't giving me an answer at It just wasn't giving me an answer at It just wasn't giving me an answer at all. And at one point, I waited like an all. And at one point, I waited like an all.

How far do we go to World War II. How far do we go to World War II. How far do we go to protect? protect? protect? >> Yeah, this is a really interesting >> Yeah, this is a really interesting >> Yeah, this is a really interesting question. So, if you think that fentanyl question. So, if you think that fentanyl question. So, if you think that fentanyl is being sent over maliciously, laced is being sent over maliciously, laced is being sent over maliciously, laced into other drugs maliciously, and that into other drugs maliciously, and that into other drugs maliciously, and that they are doing it specifically to kill they are doing it specifically to kill they are doing it specifically to kill Americans, uh well then you go very hard Americans, uh well then you go very hard Americans, uh well then you go very hard to protect that for sure. If on the to protect that for sure. If on the to protect that for sure. If on the other hand, this is people that are it's other hand, this is people that are it's other hand, this is people that are it's drug dealers that are just going, "Ah, I drug dealers that are just going, "Ah, I drug dealers that are just going, "Ah, I need something that has an addictive need something that has an addictive need something that has an addictive quality that I can lace in and they just quality that I can lace in and they just quality that I can lace in and they just accidentally every now and then put in accidentally every now and then put in accidentally every now and then put in too much and that kills people." It's a too much and that kills people." It's a too much and that kills people." It's a very different story. And so I I haven't very different story. And so I I haven't very different story. And so I I haven't looked closely enough at the problem to looked closely enough at the problem to looked closely enough at the problem to know which one of those is true. Doesn't know which one of those is true. Doesn't know which one of those is true. Doesn't even matter which one is true. It's what even matter which one is true. It's what even matter which one is true. It's what narrative do people believe will narrative do people believe will narrative do people believe will actually have political action. But actually have political action. But actually have political action. But morally, if you have China, let's just morally, if you have China, let's just morally, if you have China, let's just say uh to play the thought experiment say uh to play the thought experiment say uh to play the thought experiment out, if China is knowingly out, if China is knowingly out, if China is knowingly killing as many people as they think killing as many people as they think killing as many people as they think they can kill using fentinel, uh and they can kill using fentinel, uh and they can kill using fentinel, uh and that if they kill more that will really that if they kill more that will really that if they kill more that will really do something about it, um and so they're do something about it, um and so they're do something about it, um and so they're disguising fentinil in lethal doses as disguising fentinil in lethal doses as disguising fentinil in lethal doses as other things as some have claimed. um other things as some have claimed. um other things as some have claimed. um then yeah that is something that is um then yeah that is something that is um then yeah that is something that is um understandably treated as an act of understandably treated as an act of understandably treated as an act of certainly cold war um there's certainly certainly cold war um there's certainly certainly cold war um there's certainly a case to be made that it's bordering on a case to be made that it's bordering on a case to be made that it's bordering on hot war uh and you would go a long way hot war uh and you would go a long way hot war uh and you would go a long way to stop it and I would say that the way to stop it and I would say that the way to stop it and I would say that the way that Trump is behaving is more in line that Trump is behaving is more in line that Trump is behaving is more in line with that but again I don't think that's with that but again I don't think that's with that but again I don't think that's his primary reason for doing the things his primary reason for doing the things his primary reason for doing the things that he's doing in fact I think in the that he's doing in fact I think in the that he's doing in fact I think in the grand scheme it's more far more minor grand scheme it's more far more minor grand scheme it's more far more minor unless there are big donors in in his unless there are big donors in in his unless there are big donors in in his ear that I'm unaware of that are like, ear that I'm unaware of that are like, ear that I'm unaware of that are like, "Hey, this is my pet issue and I need "Hey, this is my pet issue and I need "Hey, this is my pet issue and I need you to address this." Um, but going that you to address this." Um, but going that you to address this." Um, but going that far out of his way to do that, if it's far out of his way to do that, if it's far out of his way to do that, if it's literally just drugs, it's not the right literally just drugs, it's not the right literally just drugs, it's not the right thing for the country to be honest. Um, thing for the country to be honest. Um, thing for the country to be honest. Um, but certainly from a narrative, moral but certainly from a narrative, moral but certainly from a narrative, moral standpoint, defend yourself standpoint, standpoint, defend yourself standpoint, standpoint, defend yourself standpoint, um, you go very, very, very far. But I um, you go very, very, very far. But I um, you go very, very, very far. But I don't think you go as far as if what don't think you go as far as if what don't think you go as far as if what Trump is doing in Venezuela were just Trump is doing in Venezuela were just Trump is doing in Venezuela were just about that, I would say that's manic. about that, I would say that's manic. about that, I would say that's manic. So, but again, I don't think it is that So, but again, I don't think it is that So, but again, I don't think it is that and so it becomes far more and so it becomes far more and so it becomes far more understandable.
