Conmen, Lib, Fake MAGA, or All Of The Above? (Ep. 2588)

28:54you read stuff that i i don't i can panic kills and i don't want to scare anyone but you read stuff that's just straight up frightening and i don't mean like michael myers frightening i mean like frightening like you have kids and you're like gosh if this breaks bad like this could end poorly for all of us when you've got people running for office right now in the global environment we're in with the Chinese Communist Party rapidly building out both building out nuclear aircraft carrier capabilities, extensive drone warfare and cyber, you know, cyber crime capabilities, cyber interdiction, kinetic warfare capabilities, robot armies.

29:37One of the worst things you can do right now. And you don't have to be I don't want to hear about neocons or whatever. You know, it's not me. I actually ran for office against a lot of stuff. So you can cut that crap right out. But it's probably a good idea to at least be prepared in case they try to attack us with either a nuclear weapon, an EMP, or a cyber attack that would debilitate the entire country in the grid. What are you going to do if your phone and electricity and water supply goes down for 60 days because the United States just was like defunding the military? I say that because the U.S.

30:08Senate primary, yeah, there were a couple more left, in Massachusetts, liberal blue Massachusetts crazy Ed Markey who was one of the most radical far left guys won the primary against another lunatic Seth Moulton but a guy who's a little more realistic on national security Markey's running on defunding the military you think that's going to stay in Massachusetts this guy be a U.S. senator taking a potentially pivotal vote if the Democrats take back the about defunding our military in a time of unprecedented threat from I promise you the threats are not like they were back in the 80s check this out this is ed markey he's proud of this by the way check this out we need to slash the pentagon budget and and we need to impeach donald trump now this is what you're gonna get if we lose if there was ever an impetus for you to show up in the midterms and to bring 10 people with you it's not good enough for you to show up you got to bring 10 people with you 10 10 and 10 call 10 people send 10 emails make 10 social media media posts excuse me about how to go out and vote you've got to do it i'm sorry i don't give orders but you've got to do it if you want to win i saw a poll the other day that said a generic congressional ballot that the republicans are actually not doing that bad we could actually hold the trifecta if you show up to vote the trifecta house senate presidency obviously is not going anywhere we could hold the trifecta it's not impossible is it likely i don't know i'm not going to get into the likely we could hold it if we lose this is exactly what you're going to be looking at you're going to be looking at a grave a grave existential national security crisis if you put the democrats in charge of the military with donald trump and the presidency as the commander or chief, at least in charge of military spending.

32:07Donald Trump will still be, President Trump will still be the CIC. You're also looking at a two-year impeachment spectacle, again, where nothing is going to get done. He's bragging about it, Marky. All of this talk from the Democrats and Tala Frico, Indiana Jones, Tala Frico, just found a cracker barrel that they're going to hit affordability. They're going to do all this stuff for expenses and health care. They're just making all this up. They're going to go in there And every day is going to be a new congressional hearing On Donald Trump You're going to see defund the police back Woke 2.0 is even worse than woke 1.0 And Who are their tip of the spear Truth tellers and truth tellers And advocates Hollywood Sadly a lot of people in the sports community Not all Academia They lie to these people I saw this yesterday Speaking of suckers and con men I saw this video You guys know this actor You may know him by face He's not really a household name But this was floating around next year I'm sorry to put up a bunch of Hollywood people This segment, it may not interest you And that's okay Not everything's going to interest everyone But it interests me It interests me because The way liberals and the liberal media are able to gaslight people is by using people with big voices and the initial influencer crowd before social media was Hollywood.

33:38That's why they have them do commercials like wear old spice, famous actor Joey Bag of Donuts wears it. Well, I want to smell like him too, whatever. They were the initial influencers. Hollywood people are some of the dumbest people you've ever met in your life. They act for a living because that's all, that's the only value added skill they have and some of them aren't very good at that. and yet despite being some of the richest, highest paid people in the world, in this rock we call Earth, somehow now they're experts on free markets versus socialism, despite never leading from the front themselves.

34:18Here's a guy, David Harbour. This guy was in that Marvel movie. Was it Thunderbolts? I think he was Red Guardian or something. What is he in? Stranger Things? I don't watch Stranger Things, but good you know that. I did see Thunderbolts, however This guy's in the movie So I'm going to put up his Let's do it in reverse, Justin Put up his wealth first So I asked ChatGPT Who knows how accurate it is But apparently the guy's got a couple of bucks I said, can you give me an estimate of Hollywood actor David Harbour From Thunderbolts? Well, and it's commonly listed at about 6 million in net worth It makes him a 1 %er, right?

34:55If it's true It says, though, ChatGPT would estimate 10 to 15 million I don't know. Who cares? Maybe it's$1 million,$2 million. It's a lot more than most people working their butts off for a living. So it's kind of weird that this guy is doing nothing to like donate his stuff to the government. He can. He can pay higher taxes and go live in a commune. A commune. But he probably doesn't do that as he lectures you. Check this out. You're either alone and you're kind of like a weird bachelor or spinster or whatever that I think is a throwback from you know the olden days or you like get a family you get a house and you like sort of that's your castle and those are your people and it's like the rest of the world or like we protect that what's ours and move on there's a very sort of capitalist you know mindset to this ideology and i i think there's something about the communal uh living in america that i think we all kind of long for not not like a commune but like more like the idea of like um you know friendship and common ground and supporting each other and taking care of each other as opposed to just these family structures, these nuclear family structures that exist independent of everything else.

36:07Holy Moses, man. This guy wants Fat Barney. Sharing his care. So share your own stuff, bro. Why are we always getting lectured by these idiots? Folks, pick the... You want a piece of advice? You may not. I'm going to give it to you anyway. Unsolicited. Justin, listen, this is for you. You're a young man too. Folks, pick the right heroes, man Pick the right heroes I know you guys laugh at Hollywood people in general You might, you know, whatever I enjoy movies too, you watch their acting, whatever, who cares These are not your heroes You know who your heroes are? You know who mine is? My grandfather, Frank Bongino Guy served patriotically and heroically in World War II worked at the quartermaster supply division drove trucks to the front lines full of fuel while the Germans were shooting at them with no headlights on at night on muddy roads if they crashed they'd burn alive and you know what he never talked about it ever he didn't go pound his chest oh what a hero I am matter of fact he didn't want to talk about it at all he'd have nightmares about it the rest of his life and nobody talked about it pick the right heroes what the hell does this guy plays a hero in the Thunderbolts movie.

37:23This guy doesn't know Jack's squad about real life and Jack left town.

37:32Dude, that is such a good point. Did someone in the chat pick up on that? Was that just the Justin original? Justin brought up that in Thunderbolts. He plays like the Soviet Union version of Captain America, Red Guardian. The guy's a Soviet movie. Maybe that stuff infected his brain. That's a great point. Hey, David, just go donate your money. Pick a charity, donate it to the government. You think government's so great. Sell your house, donate it, do a land acknowledgement, give it to the whatever, the Iroquois, whatever Indian tribe lived there before you, and then just go live in your commune and shut up.

38:08No one cares about your stupid opinion.

38:15Super straight thing. That's a good point. Here's another one. This happened yesterday. Pick the right heroes. I can't stand this guy. He is probably the most annoying, condescending toolbox craftsman in Hollywood. Here's George Clooney. Put up his chat, GPT. What's George Clooney worth? This guy's worth a lot more than Red Guardian Soviet commune guy. He doesn't want to live in one. George Clooney, according to Celebrity Net Worth, who knows how accurate, but even if it's in the ballpark, is worth about 500 milli, 500 milli. I saw a guy once who said in an article Over$140 million And it worth nothing else matters 500 million

38:59Andy 500 million 500 million Now George of course Could give it all away Isn't there a website I put it out of my ex account yesterday Because Ro Khanna That absolute tool that liberal Soviet congressman from California. He's like, we need to tax the hell out of these wealthy people. Ro Khanna's worth like 300 million. So I sent a tweet back to him with instructions on how to give his money to the government. Send them to George Clooney too. He can give his money away, George Clooney. But he doesn't want to. Here's George Clooney. Who put this video up? I want to give a hat to it. Was it Vince Langman?

39:42I saw this on Vince Langman's X account. Here's a video on a side-by-side of George Clooney on his fancy boat overseas with his wife doing his thing while lecturing you guys about the dangers of wealth creators and wealthy people. Just give it away. Do your land acknowledgement. Just give it away, George. Join David Red Guardian. Go make a movie and give it all away. Check this out. We'll be through a moment in time where people in charge, the people with the most money are telling us to fear one another. Fear one another. but we know better than that because history does teach us a lesson it teaches us something the first people that authoritarians try to shut down are not politicians they're journalists who ask questions they're the artists who refuse simple answers they're the filmmakers, writers actors and musicians

40:37folks please I want to just go back to the beginning of the show about con men and grifters and doomers. Pick the right heroes in your life and you will never go wrong. Here's a list of who your heroes aren't. It's not me. It's not my production crew. It's not some conservative content creator. It's your dad. It's your mom. It's that baseball coach as a kid that provided great life lessons and took a chance on you. It's not a content creator in the conservative space. I'm not your hero. Hollywood's not your hero Pick the right heroes The reason we are getting a lot of people And I say we, I don't mean you Collectively in the United States Tens of millions of people fall for liberal propaganda Con men on X and all these people Is because they're very charismatic Some of them looked apart George Clooney's unquestionably a gifted public speaker But you have to ask the question Are you living up yourself to what you're saying If you're claiming that you're on the right side of truth And you can't wait to get in court to defend your outrageous theories, then factually asking the question, why are you doing everything you can to get the court case thrown out?

41:47That's not what you said. If George Clooney and Red Guardian dude want to live in communes and think wealthy people are so awful and destructive, then donate your freaking money, bro. Nobody's stopping you. There's a website. You can donate your money to the government. Oh, that's ridiculous. Why is it ridiculous? I give money to charity, so do many of you. No one has to force me to do it. Why do I do it? Because it's not ridiculous. And I think the things we give to and the people we give to will do good things with it. Why don't you give your money to the government you think is the solution?

42:27Go start a commune and live in it yourself. Pick the right heroes. This is a guy I thought had more common sense too. But can these Hollywood people, folks, can they just keep their sneakers and boots and feet out of their mouth? Just shut up. Sometimes not saying, you know, a very famous content creator in the space with a TV and radio show who we all love gave me the best advice ever earlier in my career. the person said to me that's how do you think the person said to me no one ever got in trouble for shutting them if you don't know just shut up so ryan reynolds the deadpool guy who's actually a very talented guy he's funny like he is funny okay and he's a big capitalist this guy's worth a fortune too i didn't even look him up he's doing a promotion for this show about the 80s and the soviets in the united states and he says this ridiculously the 80s oh my gosh what an abomination What a horrifying time to be alive.

43:30The 80s? Bro, did you even grow? Aren't you Canadian? He's Canadian, right? Is Ryan Reynolds Canadian? I don't even think he's, he may be a dual sit now, but isn't he Canadian? What the hell do you know about the 80s in the United States? You know why they say this? He is, thank you, thank you. They say this because who was in charge for the 80s? Yes, one of the greatest presidents in U.S. history, history a republican ronald reagan so all you ever hear about from liberal goofballs in hollywood liberal media the 80s were so awful you doubt me listen to you want to talk about stupid takes you could have just shut up but you had to say this check this out it's interesting about when you get far enough away from a time period that's quite distinct i think there's always a lovely feeling associated with it's almost like you pave over all the trauma with like puppy dogs and ice cream and the 80s was a brutal brutal time for people it was a fucking mess and like you know people forget that it was like that was a tremendous strike sociopolitical tensions everywhere you know we're still like pretty fresh off like a cuban missile crisis which is only like what 15 20 years before so you know it's uh it's a tumultuous period but you look back at it now and you're like oh yeah top gun cocaine like no it was like really scary so i think you know i I think when you look back at 2026 and this era, I think they're gonna like pick on the big ticket items that don't really, didn't really leave the footprint culturally that you would think it would.

45:00I don't know. I wonder what it's gonna be. Is it gonna be like, oh, the COVID era or something? I have no idea. No, you're probably right. It'll be rose colored glasses. Of course, we are living in the frigging salad days right now. We just don't know it.

45:22Folks, I'm going to tell you some of all the dopey Hollywood actor crap. I never expected that from this guy. Doesn't he have like mobile companies and stuff? Like you would think a free markets guy who engages in capitalism and commerce every single day would like learn not to say stupid stuff. The 80s were terrible. The chat. Yeah. Folks, if this is like I know we've scrapped the five monthly limit. if there's not a Muttley in the chat for at least 10 or 15 Muttleys, then being that we scrapped the limit, the Muttley's meaningless. This is one of the dumbest takes I've ever heard. Pick the right heroes.

46:00The 1980s sucked. Did you even live in the 1980s? I'm two years older than this guy. I was a young man in the 1980s, a very young kid. I was a teenager. I was born in 1974. I was six when the 80s started. The 80s were the miracle on ice. I don't even like the Mets. here's my Twitter post this dude doesn't know Jack about the 1980s in America and Jack left down meaning he doesn't know it was an incredible time to be alive think about this He-Man, G.I. Joe Ronald Reagan crushing the Soviets the miracle on ice in the beginning of the 80s the Berlin Wall and communism falling at the end of the 80s explosive GDP growth both under Ronald Reagan, 4%, 5%, and 6%.

46:47We haven't seen those numbers again. Absent the post-COVID rebound, which is an anomaly because we shut the government down and everything else, you haven't seen numbers like that in forever. Justin, do you remember the 80s? No, okay. But you do know about hair bands, right? You had hair bands in the 80s. Now we laugh about it now. I stole my thunder, damn it. Well, you didn't because nobody heard you. So I'll just pretend you didn't say that. You had hair bands, which we laugh now. They were a lot of fun at the time. Remember Motley Crue? Remember Poison? You can laugh all you want. People still show up to that guy's concerts.

47:33They still show up. Remember Indiana Jones? Raiders of the Lost Ark? Empire Strikes Back? Of course, they got to throw that in there. to the Star Wars crew in there. You better throw it. Empire was great. It was one of the few where the sequel is better than you. You're correct. Better than the original. The 80s were awesome. There was no rage farming on social media. We still drank out of hoses. Now the BPAX chemical is going to kill you. We're all going to die. Okay. No one talked about that. see he's like listen i wasn't born till 2020 and i drank out of a hose too okay don't drink out of a hose i'm not i'm just telling nobody cared back then but here's another one here's another one folks these kids now and listen my kids do it too so i'm throwing them under the bus too every kid walks around with like a 500 ounce Stanley water bottle now.

48:36I used to go out in the summer in New York City where it gets hot in the asphalt jungle, like really hot. You would go out with your baseball glove and this, you know what a sponge ball is? It's like a baseball thing, but it's like a hard sponge. So if you get hit, you don't die. That was basically, we would play sponge ball from eight in the morning to like 10 o 'clock at night. I don't even remember where I drank water. Now it's like, here's an electrolyte infused hydrogen water container with the Stanley. You're going to need 800 ounces to survive. I guess we were all like freaking camels growing up with humps.

49:09I don't remember drinking anything ever. I'm sure I did because I'm still here. Maybe I was like beef jerky. That was the 80s. I'm not even a Mets fan. Producer Jim, this is for you. I know. This is my anti-cancer water now. I don't even Listen, I just told you Throw myself under the bus Everything's like electrolyte and fuel I love these guys They're like The 80s were amazing I don't even like the Mets Producer Jim, this is for you The 86 Mets happened in the 80s It was like the era of Like where everything was Everything was new and cool and fresh And you went to school You can't even say cool anymore You sound like an old boomer or whatever 80s Shut up, Ryan Reynolds.

49:56You don't know what you're talking about. You're Canadian. I'm just telling you. You don't know what it was like to grow up in 1980s America. Folks, anyone in the chat thinks the 80s sucked? Anyone? Because I certainly don't. All right, I told you the show was always like edutainment, hat tip BDP, right? Educational entertainment. And yes, there's really not anything super data-based or informed in that other than me getting ticked off about this idiot saying the 80s suck the 80s were awesome and i'm really tired of hearing stupid stuff like this from people want to crap on the reagan years that was the morning in america years that's when reagan won 49 states in re-election no one's ever going to do that again he would have won minnesota too he gave it to mondale just because he felt bad ask the secret service guys reagan didn't even want to travel to Minnesota because he felt bad for Mondale.

50:51Yeah, let's give him one state. I saw this yesterday. You know, I like highlighting other creators because, folks, my job here as an activist first and a content creator second is not to try to monopolize the entire audience. There are a lot of good creators out there doing good work. And it's my obligation as one of the guys who's been in this business the longest and with a good, decent audience thanks to you is to highlight other creators. I played this clip yesterday and I should have done a little more educating after the entertainment portion of it. There's this blue haired lady that gets into it with a good commentator, this guy, Caleb Hammer, who does some good videos.

51:30They're really informative. And he gets into it with this blue haired lady who again, appears to be like a con man, like just doesn't know anything. She's saying things with no factual basis because I don't know, she has blue hair or whatever. So she mentions how the United States, you know, we're cutting all these snap benefits and social welfare programs. Ladies and gentlemen, this is all crap. This is all, man, I'm going to show you some data to back it up in a second. I just want to play this clip again because, again, pick the right heroes. And if they have blue or green hair, they're probably not the right heroes.

52:02Check this out. Patriotic? With blue hair, you think I'm patriotic? You can still be patriotic and be wrong about economics. Why would I be patriotic when we're spending more money on bombs than we are for, like, social justice or, like, social programs? We spend 50 % of the federal spending on social programs. Like what? Social programs, Medicare, Medicaid, mandatory spending, SNAP benefits, veteran benefits. You mean SNAP benefits that people just got taken away from them? You think everyone just got taken off SNAP? Most people did. You think the majority just got taken off SNAP? Yes. Our military spending is 10 to 20%.

52:36And that's egregious. The bombs you're freaking out about, 10 to 20%. It's egregious we spend 50 % on social programs. I'm a military kid, and I can tell you that shit is not needed. Girl, you literally just got the information that you were just wrong, and yet you're still doubling down. Oh, boy. I love when people have no idea what they do, and then they're just not patriotic. It's like, dude, you're literally not a contributor. You should be the most patriotic person. You contribute nothing. I mean. You contribute literally nothing. You've only been a taker, and yet you're the one that doesn't like the country?

53:07Ladies and gentlemen, please, please, in the name of all that's holy, pick the right heroes. I'm going to add to the list of not heroes. Notice I didn't say anti-heroes because anti-heroes can be kind of cool. The Punisher was kind of an anti-hero if you like comic books. You know, sometimes the anti-hero is like just a dude who's PO'd with an edge. Okay, I'm not talking about them. I'm talking about the not heroes, like the villains. If they have blue or green hair and they're spouting a bunch of liberal talking points, they're probably conning you. Con men, liberal media people, doomers, pillars, communists, Islamo fanatics, Hollywood people, you know, faux academics with stupid critical race theory stuff.

53:41Pick the right heroes and you'll never go wrong. This woman's not it. She doesn't even know anything. So I saw this article conveniently after the show yesterday. I would have put it in yesterday. And that's why I played this thing again, the Wall Street Journal. Really, we're ripping people callously off food stamps. Guys, everybody's starving. They're all dying. The world, everyone's gonna die, folks. We just know food stamps out there. Really? They're just taking it. They're just taking it. Not to mention like a lot of people who can work for a living and don't wanna get off their ass and go to work who are taking SNAP benefits.

54:12And no one wants to say that. I'll say it. Go to work if you can work. Go to work. Wall Street Journal notes, here's some data for you. Food stamp enrollment fell to$36.6 million from$42.3 million between May 25 and 26, according to the Department of Agriculture data. Wow. Sounds like she's right, Dan. This is what a horror show. Part two. Enrollment has returned to pre-pandemic levels, Though it's still higher as a share of the population, 10%, than it was just two decades ago.

54:48Again, folks, facts kind of matter. If they have blue or green hair, they've acted in a Hollywood movie, they're spouting off about critical race theory, or they tell you to go live in a commune, you should probably scrap them and pick a new hero. or if they wear a suit jacket to Cracker Barrel and look like freaking Indiana Jones on an archaeological excursion looking for the Ten Commandments in Raiders of the Lost Ark you should probably pick a new hero if you're running in the state of Texas on a God's a woman and there's six genders look at this guy he doesn't even know what to do he's like look at that a menu make sure you laugh folks listen to me man I ran for office you have no idea how many ads people wanted me to make that were so fake and phony.

55:33One of them was like, I need you to do this with all this. I'm like, no, that's just fake. Like, I wouldn't do that in real life. I'm not doing it. I'm not doing it. I'm sorry.

55:43Trump, however, Trump, however, had the best idea ever yesterday. Folks, if we can get this moving, Donald Trump was speaking yesterday and just threw this out there. And I'm telling you, if we can move the Overton window on this topic and make sure that this gets moving and hopefully a Republican Congress either now or in the future, it'll change the whole country. I got that. And a reality check. I told you with the AI tech bros, like a really bad idea is to walk onto college campuses and crap all over the students and tell them how AI is not going to need them. Who the hell? Pick the right heroes and they ain't it either if you're talking smack like that.

56:23I've got some numbers on that too because it's not true. at least the data doesn't say that more coming up in a minute hey there's weight loss injections are everywhere but here's the catch about 15 of users quit because of the cost another 15 stopped because of side effects you know that a while back i wanted to drop some pounds i was up to 238 i was really not eating great i was going through a long health crisis in my life and healthy food really wasn't a priority it was like staying alive so i needed to lose well over 30 pounds well I did it. I didn't take weight loss injections. They weren't for me.

56:56I took this product from Brickhouse Nutrition. I asked Miles, hey, you got a good product for me? He said, I do. Lean, L-E-A-N. That's how I got lean. People ask me all the time, does it work? It does. I'm down to about, I think, 196. I weigh myself pretty much every day. Lost well over 30 pounds. I chose lean. Weight loss shots work by helping control blood sugar and appetite, so you eat less. There's no argument there. The shots do work for a lot of people. But lean was doctor formulated to do similar things naturally lean helped tackle my hunger and help support steady energy without constant cravings and lean did something injections don't it helped my body turn fat into energy so i burn fat instead of storing it my favorite part lean is a nutritional supplement it's not a shot there's no prescriptions there's no needles i lost weight with lean a lot of it and i believe you can too it does work paula uses it too go to brick house nutrition.com slash dan use promo code dan Dan for 20 % off.

Really appreciate it. Lean's a great product. Here's what I was talking about. President Trump was speaking yesterday, and he is so laser focused on the Leering Center and the corruption of all this federal government money floating into a thousand different food programs, assistance programs.

58:20Ladies and gentlemen, tens of millions of people at a time are on these programs who can go to work and don't want to or are fraudulently claiming an income status they don't have. Oh, I'm really poor and they're really not claiming all their income. A lot of this stuff is a scam. There are some people, the people who've outlived some benefits. There's some kids whose parents have passed away. There's some people who genuinely can't work for reasons. We've always been a kind and generous society. But the amount of fraud in these programs is ridiculous. President Trump said this yesterday, and I applaud him, and he should stick with this.

58:50These social welfare programs, they're no business of the federal government. They shouldn't be anymore. We've seen the scam. We've seen the scandals in Minnesota, California, and elsewhere. Hand it back to the states. The states want to become incubators of social welfare in blue states, while red states tighten up and only get benefits to people who need them. Let's try that out. Check this out. It's unbelievable. The fraud is unbelievable. And I think we have to give that back to the states, by the way. We have to give things like the learning center, the leering, right? The leering centers.

59:22The federal government runs this stuff. We should be we should be running our military and running a couple. But the states have to run all of that stuff and you'll cut it down by 75 percent and it'll be run better. But the states have to be giving it back just like we gave back education. You know, I said to you the other day that the messaging on the Republican side has gotten geometrically better. By exponential growth in messaging capability on the Republican side, we were so stale in the past. We just didn't know what we were doing collectively as a movement. I attribute a lot of that to Donald Trump saying things in the past that were verboten.

1:00:03You were not allowed to say that in the past. God forbid. Why? The Democrats would accuse you of throwing grandma off a cliff, you know, stealing food out of baby's mouth. Donald Trump's like, one, that's not true. Two, you guys are morons. Three, there's fraud. And I'm not going to listen to your crap anymore. And you're not going to dictate where the story goes. I'm going to tell the story, not a story. He is 100 percent correct. You want to clean up this massive crisis in government spending and welfare abuse across the country. Emulate the great Ronald Reagan in the 80s who did the same thing Trump is doing.

1:00:35he spoke right to the problem the most dangerous words in the english language i'm from the government and i'm here to help trump does the exact same thing well that didn't work for ronald reagan no no you're right it was terrible he only won 49 states in re-election and had the greatest eight-year run of an economy we saw in modern american history it was really terrible you remember reagan calling out welfare queens and also the media was like and we didn't even have Fox News back then to fight back or talk radio. Remember Reagan calling out welfare queens and the liberal media was like, oh my gosh, what a horrible racist this guy is.

1:01:10There was no evidence of any of that attributed to race at all. He was talking about people taking advantage of the system. And it worked so poorly for Reagan. He only won 49 out of 50 states in re-election and is known as one of the greatest presidents in U.S. history. Folks, the messaging has shifted because Donald Trump brings up what used to be uncomfortable topics because the right was scared. Not you, but they were scared. You can't say turn benefits back to the state. They'll accuse you of stealing food from baby's mouth. Hey, newsflash, they're going to accuse you because they're con men of doing it anyway.

1:01:45Just like that idiot at Raw story accused me of failing a background check despite the fact that he made up the whole story. They just make this stuff up. however on the messaging front we have gotten we've gotten really good at this there are memers out there who are doing amazing work you see people like chung in the white house and scavino and others in that messaging team in the white house they just knock it out of the park every single time because they go where republicans wouldn't go in the past but Thankfully President Trump has taken the bull on the horns on the technology race with China We are not doing great And I say we as a collective society Democrats, Republicans and everyone We are not doing a great job talking to the next generation about critical issues like AI We're just not I can't say this enough If you are someone in the AI space or tech space And you're out there on a college campus At some commencement speech Telling students and their parents You better get on board or this train's going to run you down.

1:02:48Like, here's a hint. You're doing it wrong. Now, I would say at least you're being honest if in fact that was accurate, that there's widespread employment loss due to AI. I always bring the receipts. This is the receipt show. I hope you learn something here every day. I learn it too as I hear about it. This was in the Wall Street Journal yesterday. It's cited from an article somewhere else. It was Marginal Revolution, but it's called AI and Employment. colon so far so good keep that up there i thought it was terrible i thought the ai titan tech bros told everybody everyone's going to lose their job i thought the employment situation was was dank and terrible why would you say that so the census bureau added a couple questions about ai to its business trends are you guys using ai out there and you can have you can see the numbers here It turns out that some companies are using it.

1:03:44Some companies are using it a lot. Some reported no change. But the employment numbers are the ones that are really unbelievable. Yeah, there are a couple people scoring on to the next one. There are a couple people in the employment space that are shedding some jobs. But overall, almost all firms report no change. And those reporting change in their employment status due to AI, it's about evenly divided between increasing and decreasing employment. In other words, there's almost no overall change at all. Some people are hiring more due to AI because they have more money to spend because they're getting more productive and can use humans for human tasks.

1:04:25This messaging war in the future, ladies and gentlemen, is critical. Critical. We cannot lose sight of this stuff. if you're going to go out there and scare the hell out of the next generation of kids just because what you have you want to flex in front of about how important and rich you are you're doing it wrong don't do it friends don't let friends say stupid to our kids okay and don't tell them the 80s sucked either you morons the 80s were awesome i love the 80s damn man i wish sometimes i go back and live my life again playing wiffle ball on the corner in the 80s you know not worrying about you know the the world being exploded by an emp attack and the grid getting shut down we beat the soviets and red guardian in the 80s captain america won man the super serum our version won you know every day we pick a comment of the day and weekly we pick a winner here's how you get into the contest i got a few questions asking me about this.

1:06:13If the 80s were so bad, then why do artists try to reboot the 80s culture now? Yes, exactly. If the 80s are so terrible, how come all the stuff in the 80s, you see artists like reminiscing about the 80s, they could just let it go. Do you see movies about it? It wasn't Stranger Things like about the 80s. I don't watch the show, but everything's about the 80s. Even that movie with Anne Hathaway, the crazy pro-abortion lady we played yesterday, The End of Oak Street, I think is about like the 80s or something. The halcyon days.
