Everybody him come on in its just in time. Now that you're, not wait. You're right in time is the perfect time for the simultaneous Coffee was about to start, but not until we do. The most important part of the day is the thing that makes everything better. It's a simultaneous happened. I need is covered. My group was a tanker tells us time to give. Each of us has already kind fill it with your favorite liquid. I like and jointly for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine her the bathing, makes everything better everything skull, simultaneous at an atmosphere
I feel all my vital signs improving white blood count up. Vitamin d levels improving yep, it's all coming together,. so it was evident in the news, apparently FBI chief, Christopher re has something to tell us this morning, If you find out what it is, while I'm hammering away her, tell me in the comments: what produces some big news I saw somebody saying they thought he was gonna resign, but I don't think that's anything like confirmed so well. could be a whole new new cycle. Can it be interesting? here's a question. I wonder about whenever we talk about death rates, for a crowd of errors were always talking about averages.
and the average is very useful, but they can be misleading as well. Here's what I'm wondering how many people in trumps position meeting they they were diagnosed early, so there was sufficient asking them to catch it before the symptoms were bad and they get the full suite of was colored Trump protocol. Every every drug that Trump got the same way that he got it. Unless I hear they're in their seventies and Wednesday, they had one comorbidity, that's an extra pounds. How many people is that the situation who were lucky enough to get treated as well as the president, which would be rare, but we could get there
Most people would die cuz, I'm starting to think that the number is so close to zero, that we should just forget about it. I mean if we can get to the point where we can catch people early and give them exactly what Trump got and whatever else comes along. I feel as if. vaccines are not going to be the answer. You know one of my predictions I made two months ago, which I haven't. I haven't re upped, but I think I'll do I'm not sure will ever see vaccinations, I'm just not sure vaccines written into the answer. As other people have noted, we ve never successfully made a girl of ours. So are you wondering why is it
Never been able to make one in the past, but now six ten different companies suddenly can all make one and they can make it all indifferent. Makes. So suddenly the thing that was impossible, every year. Until now is now so possible, though you can do a ten different weights, something wrong right. there's something terribly wrong with what we're being told now. Maybe it was always possible and there was financial or other basic wasn't being done Maybe it was a tiny thing. Maybe those coronavirus viruses were so bad that we have to try. But whenever we now doing good information about what's going on in the world. Have you seen the latest Paul's ones like proposals? Are
to show Biden with a commanding led? What do you think they'll by it? early. This is the same week and twenty sixteen relative to election day. Same week, Raillery was at her maximum Paul numbers now that mean that this will go the way last time. Well, Certainly suspect that people are aligned, pollsters personal, we'll see her lunch but it is also true that this might be The president's worst weeks, but when you say we also see that these numbers can swing? away in one week, so What it is today is really not terribly predictor of what the elections will be, as we know from twenty sixty
so I wouldn't worry yet, but things don't change its, not looking good. That's for sure I was talking about persuasion and the strongest elements of persuasion see if we can do, is ability and what's goin on here. As I told you before, the strongest persuasion, especially for the presidency, is fear. You could pretty much predict that, whoever it the best job of scaring the voters in the way that they want to scare them. That's probably use gonna win. The election fear is the big persuade her it's the one thing that will get people off the fence is the one one day little make you show up. out and will certainly gave you to switch parties if you're afraid you might not do it for other reasons, but if you're afraid my switch parties. So let's look at these fear.
so number one fear is covered right, so the Democrats Coy wisely decided, focus on protein virus as the primary you now push against. President drop. It works for two really good reasons. Number one there's a general impression that he is not performed as well as he could so they. something to say about this performance now. I of course have said those those opinions are probably right Won't matter because we make decisions based on ridiculous thinking, but my point: What are we now? about how well let's say leader would have been in the United States will say if we picked the leader of Germany, the leader of New Zealand, pick everybody who, you think did a good job on the krona virus.
and tell me that you know for sure. Is that other leader and just been born American and had been the president instead of tromp, that we would have got a better result, because you can't say that its unknowable and if you use your common sense I just think you through he, probably whoever that other president would be hypothetically would probably get the same result because they would have. The same limitations come into a administration that faulty tests from the CDC wasn't the president's fault, but they were following. You would have the states jockeying for power. We have a system where the states have a lot of control. They would be making a variety of different decisions just the way the sis
supposed to work is exactly what is supposed to do. I don't know, there's some other later would have gone about result, but the country is now the analyzing, so they won't make there first, they won't know enough say way way. The only thing that matters. Another leader would have done it in the same situation as president of the United States. Because I'm telling you anything to no house but he did in another country because there are too many variables. So point is, Fear is always the big, the big motivator pursuit. It was grown, a virus has been our biggest sphere and the president is vulnerable to criticism, because people are good, analyzing so they re really will have to this, but the presidents and
I don't think I don't think this is getting enough attention. The president's instincts to downplay the fear of the Koran virus is politically problem. Right on point, because you might say to yourself Scot, I think the country would do better if people were more afraid, maybe they would take more precautions or something maybe that's entirely possible, but from a political perspective, if the president can take the fear of it, he can take the credit and it won't hurt as much politically so if you are on a scale of one to ten, if you are fear of coronavirus, was what's a up, a nine or a ten and but that down to a sudden you probably wins
What do you feel about the risk of the coronavirus when you see that seventy three year old, seventy three or four year old man, got some go morbidity scuttle extra weight on. What does it make you feel You see him going to the hospital and shaken off in a few days, less afraid Now you might say to yourself: well, I'm not gonna get the same health care as the president, but even so when you watch him, go through it, you usanga relate to have more because it somebody assorted now and- and you feel, ok, I just watched the cycle from me. in the end, and there was nothing will happen there. The look extra dangerous could again if he had not gone the right treatment, etcetera, but your impression of it right or wrong. Just your impression of it is less scary.
I think that the president is knocking that down from a nine or a ten to a badass seven, and you don't really see it as a sort of an invisible play, because what people are concentrating on is what that will do to listen Actions of the citizens will the citizens then. expose themselves still greater risk than they should, because the less afraid they might that's entirely possible. They might, but that will count much less was saved the death rate is two hundred and thirty five thousand, but it could have been two hundred and thirty, two thousand just to pick a numbers. Would you noticed What the public say are, That was an extra two thousand people. as the president has just said, different things about his own infection. Two thousand people would be alive
We will never be able to demonstrate that anybody died because of what the president said. It just won't be study of all we will not one. So we want no by allegedly that's my dog, making all kinds of noise of here. So here's the thing The president is doing a good job on the fear reduction now in order to win the camp of the fear Migration, so right now We don't have enough fear about what would happen if Joe Biden got elected. What would be the thing you would fear? The most Or you can think of all kinds of stuff, you say well, maybe he's a little too friendly with China but you know feel that he's gonna kill you tomorrow. It feels like some kind of long term. You know some optimal situation,
What do you say? Ok? Well, he might do something with your healthcare but might not affect you personally. You might take a while- maybe you, ok, dozens scary, you just have a province. so the president needs to apply some fear to his persuasion or probably won't get done, meaning When what would be the scariest thing that they could persuade on well screaming? Crime revolution socialists, taking over and destroying the planet. So I would be expecting that might pence in his debate tonight. I think he's going to be pushing hard on the the risk of socialism, and that would be my guess, I think he's going to push hard on now that will destroy the country and we're all in trouble
the Democrats, we also doing a better job lying as it turns out there people that lose their healthcare. If trunk is re elected that, though, you lose pre existing conditions, there's no. Any of this is true, and there is evidence that his faults, but because the country is so in such information poverty, you can make any claim. Of the left- and it will never be fact check because they don't fact check themselves The people watching the news from the left just will never the other argument so that the Democrats can literally just say anything just anything. So they can push the fine people hoax. As you know, they can tell you that Trump is taking your health care that he's going to cut social
now. This is true not knows based on anyone, but they can just say it does put it up here. There not saying that the presidency is also making wild claims, but I think he's wild claims in fact Jack, but they look in fact check them. Left. I go for starvation as the fear that the that the Republicans can push So Joe Biden gave a speech at Gettysburg is the scene of the gettysburg, other talk about, does Sweden? Will I see you come thither? And I would say that I listened to a little bit of binding speech and I have to say, hi marks. I give an eye marks. I would say the Biden enter, going to Gettysburg and cuz it's a place of famous for civil war or national unrest so
image wise, pretty good speech wise, pretty good young of objective, you did it in a solid job there I would say. Just a really good job, and I thought the content of his speech was wrong as well. But as a job Pollack pointed out in his article and bright bird, that he was doing a unity speech, she led off with the most most divisive lie in american history. The fine people hooks. So he goes to give a speech on national wreck, the situation any leads off with his own bad behaviour. The worst thing is happening in the car. and thus I don't think that's an exaggeration. His lie about the fine people hose is the alpha problem in the country
if you even more than probable virus in my opinion, because to the extent that people believe the fine people hawks and apparently people on the left do Makes everything that they do? Ok, it's the approval to be dangerous, z, approval to be extreme. because I think there are fighting something extreme which, as it turns out just didn't happen, doesn't exist so by you can get away with it. Because again, there will be no fact. Checking of his false claims through big story, of course, which will only be shown in the right, leaning, media. So
Maybe that's what would be normally. The biggest story in the country will be non existent on CNN and MSNBC. Just warnings us Now I ve told you in the past usually the negation of fake news, faint news, it usually when either only the left or only the right report. It. Even happening. and the other one just doesn't actually happen. That usually means it didn't happen. If both of them report it happened, it probably did if they might have a different spin on what it means, but if they both at least report, it happened, probably happened. Surrender we ve got this story, only exists on the right and they all leave us. There may never be covered by the left. That The president has now in order to classification of all of the other. Russia collusion
stuff now I don't know what that means, but Does it really mean it's all declassified really all of it, because How to read actions like crazy? Is he really getting rid of all the redactions? So first of all I don't believe it. You know, it just seems like too much of a claim I feel like there have to be redaction somewhere. but that's not the biggest or in big story is that once already released show John Brennan was aware and must have breathed either. You briefly Obama must have been aware- that Heller. and have a scheme to detract from own email problem by creating a fake scandal about Trump and Russia, which she did and with the help of her helpers in that Department of Justice and the FBI whatever
CIA and with her helpers, almost succeeded in overthrowing the country almost You know what she is almost there again, we were at the brink of Hillary Clinton, succeeding in in the coup that she attacked. Did in twenty sixteen that when I say she's on the brink of succeeding, if you look at the polls, it would suggest that the collective lies coming out of the end of the left, I've done their job and that those lies collective. We might get Biden elected. It puts the Hilary Obama crowd back in charge. We don't know exactly who, but is turned to look like
he'll areas who attempt which is now clearly documented in twenty. Sixteen is actually get to work like right now, because this election will be completely free I want, because none of the information the voters have to vote on is real. All of our information is just made up just fake and, of course, the Russia collusion thing was fake news. That was an attempt to overthrow the country. This is just more of that is just more fake news that the fine people hosting the priming it's just a whole bunch of fake news that collectively the left guess together and promotes So strong, when you put it all together, I am actually cost trumpery election, I'm still predicting you'll win, but at the moment, as what it looks like so.
That should be the biggest story in the world right now The biggest country should be the biggest story in the world, won't even be covered on, CNN won't even be, Now, there's a race to the finish line. That's really interesting! because brethren, and maybe some others and the government might be in a whole lot of legal trouble. But only if Trump gets reelected because otherwise they can install into biogas in office and then everybody's, I'm afraid. So It looks like we have documented evidence of an actual current twenty. Sixteen. We have an actual coup, this in progress right now, a faint disco, it's it's! The the fake news creates the the the coop basically. And the people that we know are involved.
are on a path. If things go, the way the poles are indicating their unsurpassed completely get away with, not only get away with it, but might be your next to the head of the CIA and bread and could be that next out of the CIA. That's completely possible. At this point I can think of a worse Alpo, but work. We certainly on the precedence of that being possible. See what else we got going on here. The the standard off. and this is another example of how the fake news can overthrow a government. The accurate news would be like this Nancy policy put a bunch of
things in the stimulus bill that anybody would have known would make it impossible for Republicans to pass it. Anybody would know that. So it's quite obvious. The Nancy Pelosi didn't knew that that bill was it impossible, the way it was designed and she wasn't going to negotiate it, which further tells you it was never intended to be passed. It was intended to fail, so they can blame it on the president. That's right! Nancy Pelosi is actually starving. Americans starving, starving Americans for political gain, but they control the media so much of it anyway. That story will turn into the opposite of that they can just say it's. The opposite is the opposite. It was a perfectly good bill and this President Trump, desire not to negotiate waterways, so it's all on him right course,
President has said that he would be perfectly happy to sign up a clean bill that just had stimulus checks. I think one of the thing, but they won't send that to him Because they can star of the public and blended on job because they control the news. Amazingly. Yasso so, and also says the media doesn't understand negotiating works when they see walk away from the negotiating table. They say: hey trumps negotiating, which is exactly the opposite of what happened. They can report exactly the opposite of reality: completely when he walks away from the table. That's negotiating! That's what it is told us specifically. You wrote a book walk away from the table other
Pause, you can't get what you want so he's negotiating, but the news will treat it as he's stop negotiating because they can they just they just had the power to report things as the opposite of what is obviously true, and they can get away with. It's amazing. and, of course the ignorance of the public really helps them there more reports about that drug. That Trump is apparently on this. tax matters on Sunday, as the side effects, including aggression, agitation and confusion. Now most people have those side effects. I don't like those side effects. I got to say as much as I love my president tromp anyplace
Who else was taking a drug that might have those side effects? I think he has to take the nuclear codes away from them. I really do, and I know it's so close to I can't imagine I will happen, but under normal conditions here. No matter how much you love your president, that's a pretty big risk. you? You would find no value in my commentary if I'd, if I just agreed with the present on everything there would be no no use to you at all. So that's my opinion on it. Here is the strangest simulation of thing as down. Kelly and Conway has been tested, positive and as well as her daughter, so both Kelly and and her daughter have the crowd of ours. I I
Google this morning to try to determine if George Conway has tested positive for products you would say, we'll have to family members have tested positive. His are pretty are now this open, the following completely possible scenario. You ve seen George Conway right. He doesn't look. I don't like your fat shame, but is important in the story so lacking in fashion, and I'm just gonna say he's got an obvious a would you agree and far more. I think if I can remember what he looked like far more than Trump. and there is a non zero chance. The trump through the crowd of ours, will take out his biggest rhetoric. That would be first whole tragic, I'm not open.
That happens, I'm not a George Conway Fan, but we don't- we don't hope it'll on anybody. We dont hope we don't wish ready violence or any kind of bad outcomes for anybody. I hope you don't you but in terms of the simulation, this is really possible. Now, it's entirely possible. The trumps number one critic could be susceptible to this, and if it turned out that. Why is it turned out that happened? I don't know what I would think about reality after that it would just be so. I am bogglingly. Looking like a movie swift, I just wanna know what to think of it. Here's another one like that. I saw you charge of various countries, opinions of China and, if you look at the various trees and what they thought of China over the years.
Down, but what about twenty eighteen, the dislike of China just went through the roof Every every country in the world has had a big change around twenty eighteen boo. Now here's the simulation part of that. And I know from experience that at least a third of you are going to misinterpret what I say next. I'll. Just let that happen, because I can't help it. Can always say this is clearly as I can knowing A third of you will permanently misinterpreted goes like this in twenty eighty, in my step Sunday, other Sentinel overdose Sentinel, of course comes from China, and they do it intentionally earth the United States at that time. I declare
The China was my mortal enemy and I was gonna. Take him down or certainly try as far as I could, So exactly the time that I publicly announced, I was gonna, take the China and destroy their reputation. First, their reputation just fell off a cliff and all over the world people were having China? I'm not going to say and here's the part you misinterpret I'm not claiming I did that one slash three of the people listening will go, go away inside. He just claims. You did that I've just I'm you I'm not claiming that. I'm plainly there's a coincidence, but it's a big one, and by itself would mean anything right. Does love people probably turned negative on China around the same time. So. If you just look at it in isolation would be much, but I gotta tell you.
the number of times in my life they arrive. desirable global thing to happen and then watch it just one I decided it should happen is really Freaking me out a just love it, so they point The story is not that I'm changing world events, I understand why they change when I want them to my. Gonna guessing what will happen. I'm I'm genuinely confused by because happens so regularly. You got some day I'll. Give you a list of things that happened just about the time I started persuading that direction I feel like. So this is breaking news. Something breaking right now. Tell me tell me in the comments: if you see something some users, you caused it. I know you did
I don't make that claim, but I will tell you that I was trying to make exactly this happen. And at the time you said it would be unlikely. Wouldn't you, if, in twenty When I said publicly, as I did a number of times that I was determine, China was my enemy and I was gonna. Try to take them down. You probably didn't think much would change. Did you? You probably thought Twenty slash twenty would look a lot like two thousand and eighteen in terms of China. You probably wouldn't think much. Would it be different except or decoupling and there's a lot different. There's a lot different, but I don't think Facebook is decided to ban, You are now across all of his platforms. What do you think of that? Do you think, is reasonable for Facebook to ban Q and based on the fact that they spread. I guess this would be their argument that they spread.
Untruths, the presumed aware young, potentially dangerous entrance. Do you think that regional here's? What I think it might be reason I could totally see how it would be reasonable to remove concern busy theory bs from your platform, but don't you have to be a little consistent, As my only issue, I can they allow Joe Biden to do basis. Campaign on an obvious falsehood: the fine people hoax when you just have to look at the transcript. No, that is not true, just look at the transcript. It's not easy! Now. Why is it that the most divisive and dangerous hawks in the history of America, that's my claimed for the fine people out the most dangerous oaks and Oliver
american history, why is that? Ok, now You could say: well, you know it's a political, clay and there's lots of political claims, and we can't really fact check all that, and people will just put it in contacts. It's just a political claim is it I would say. No We here's that years of political claim present tromp was caught your social security. It's not true, it's the opposite of what he says. he's been pretty good about doing what he says. He'll do and not doing what he says he won't do he's been pretty good at that. So it's not true is that okay? Is it okay to have something? That's clearly not true. This was political claim, I would say That's ok, because as soon as you get into the business of determining was true in art it's just a forever. Rather all you can't get out that all right, because the other
lots of things that are a grey area, some people to say it's true, some people will say it's not true. You could never really use that standard of that is true or not true. After use standard? That is true, and on top of that, it's dangerous, I think that's what poor pure non over the top Not that is untrue, true and has a fairly obvious potential over for danger. That's what to find people This is a fine people, house isn't just something that is untrue, like saying all, raise your taxes. It's not like saying I'll cut your social security. Now, like saying all you can keep your doctor it's not like any of those things. Those are just.
Untrue, not dangerous? The fine people hoax could get me killed me personally. I could get killed because of that hawks and all that it supports, because it supports all structure of believes that either the strongest pillar and it's not real. So that's the world. You live in all right, but so I think Facebook just needs to be consistent. I wouldn't mind them q and on if they also banned the fine people hoax. I would say those are equivalents, interesting way, following the Glen Lowry. Scholar he's got to go It was a bunch of other scholars and are calling for the Pulitzer Board revoke the poorest is awarded earlier this year to Nicole
Anna Jones for her one thousand six hundred and nineteen project and they're asking for the Pulitzer Prize to be revoked, because the scholarship in that piece of work is lacking, meaning that there's a claim in there? This ridiculously untrue, specifically the claim that the American Revolution was fought in large part to preserve slavery, Currently, there's no historical evidence that that was the case, but that as part of the learning and somebody gotta pull, surprised about completely false claims. Of course, you're all watch the VP debates tonight I think, The debate is gonna, be more interesting than you think might be borne she's, the music. Of course,
drama. Is it calmly, Harris's gonna ask replacing glass walls and pence is wants to have? No all. Now, if it turns out, the cobbler is in place. The glass box and pants is not. Who wins? Who wins does come layers win because she's, the one play it safe and she's got a rule, glass, cubicle orders, pence win because he's clearly far enough away from people do not in fact anybody but he's. Also, not being a little bitch plastic Marx who wins. Well, it might depend people pick sides with their political favorite. I think pence winds that in terms of the objects. You don't wanna, be the bubble girl. If pencil free Range Chicken Stage and calmly Harris's a bubble girl bob.
Europe does not need free range chicken optics, that's not even close, so I don't know if it will turn out that way, ones in a bubble in one isn't, but You're all doesn't avenant. Now here's the other stuff. The first thing you need to know about vice president debates. Is it that's a good place, just out messages. So why you might see is you might see pants framing one of the issues or more, in a way that you haven't seen before, which would be really interesting. Because if you see that it means he's, because that would be a normal procedure, you let the vice president. If it doesn't work you just don't do it yourself if it becomes a big controversy and it's a problem, then the president could say. While I was the vice president, you just listen to me and sore to make it go away. Cuz, that's
typical. Two vice presidents do sometimes say something at the top of the tickets as to ask the modified, fairly ordinary. I think it's happened, a lot of different races, so This is a low risk thing from Paris to try on new arguments to see if he does it adheres. What's interesting- and I said this a number of times and I'm just gonna- keep saying I think pence- most underrated public servants in America, the most underrated in terms of how good he is. because the job of the vice president is primarily not to cause trouble right. You don't want to become a problem. You just want to be at a steady spare tire, and I think he does that better than just about anybody that ever done it. I think that he's. Having trouble like nobody's business, he also can win. Bates? I believe he was
the winner of his team game debate and twenty. Sixteen he's good at it, his excellent in imports, You know he's not gonna have a weird gas. You know he's gonna be prepared, you know he's got a present. Well, you know he's not. Gonna have a an emotional flip, a moment, Are you strong enough to handle whatever's coming? He is really solid Now, do you know them about commerce? Would you say, you yourself, I know cover heiresses, just as strong as all those things I said about pence. She could have some moments, so she is capable of moments. You know to capture the new cycling that could be dangerous, but she's, not in his class. He is, he is just a better debater and if I were to be a little bit worried because people are going to look at the vice presidential, A little bit armor than they would normally.
People are looking cobbler, as maybe the top of the ticket think about this. Hence could not protecting ask as this would be an unlikely outcome. Buddy. He could he give envy election tonight as possible. Here's how we have to do it. He would just have to expose calmer and just destroy her and, if necessary, in the debate. If he does that sound. Joe Biden doesn't look like such a good package, because you ve always thought, Really it's about the number two right. If he destroys number two, he despised number one that wouldn't be true, the reverse, if pence were to lose the debate, what's anybody ever say You are you are you say? Therefore, I change my vote. Nope you're not going to change your vote.
First of all, is very unlikely. He's gonna lose live, it'll, be a tie or you'll win. I would say: that's a fair estimate. But he might win, and this is the thing I don't think people are counting on. He has the skill he does have the skill compared to combat Harris to misery. Now, probably not. I think she will rise to the challenge and usually these things look closely, even even if you think somebody one, but he does have the talents he has the talent to completely take. And then I don't think the risk works in the other direction in this case. So if he exposes her as unusually week could change the race we'll see. Have you noticed when it will be just a little recap here on taken us waiting before me? Do that so?
I was looking at weed by I don't know how to pronounce this name on Weis. I think you know who I am some grass about showing Sweden compared to some other countries, you gave France and Spain and the point he was making. Sweden is doing great in terms of death rate and infections over and I think trending them, whereas there are at least three countries mentioned in the. U S, I think is rather too so. Uk France and Spain, where there having more infections is point was point, was the Sweden has essentially stopped the lockdown? They ve gone back. something closer to normal, and he saying that Sweden is to a great deal None of the things that the countries that are doing poorly feel they need to do like the lockdown masks.
No, I don't want. First of all, I don't think the Sweden story is that clean. I think that the Swedes wearing masks, and I think that they are voluntarily socially distancing, so is not really a clean comparison, but he makes you trust me this case, and I am not convinced and here's why. number one every every time you see somebody say: I'm gonna compare one country, no matter what country to these three or four or five countries. You can just forget what they're saying because nothing they say is useful. If All the countries in the world, one hundred navy, wherever there are, if you're gonna, take six of them and say I can tell something from these sex as probably not true. It's probably cherry picking if you had picked other kind, she might differ result. So, first, all anything's grow virus graph with three or four.
countries, don't believe anything. You see on the ground. That is cherry pick. Data may be true, but you shouldn't assume is true because it's not credible by design. Just a few country. So by your was in part of his twitter thread. He added little throwaway line. He said and yes other nordic countries did better than the Swedes. What wait his point was that Sweden is doing great job without the lock down on the masks, but he compared to Uk France and Sweden, but then in the tweet he throws in this.
Yes, other nordic countries did better than the Swedes, but that does not prove lock pounds work because the other nordic countries did the Latvians. It may just be proof that the Swedes should have protected their nursing homes better. Maybe here's my take another words: the nordic countries, the ones that supplement with vitamin d all year round, because they don't get enough vitamin d so apparently, and sweetened is typical to take. You know: fish oil on a daily basis to get your vitamin d Is that true in the UK to people in the UK supplement with vitamin d? Don't like some France, Nope Spain? I don't think so. So Here's what I see I see that when you're on waste was trying to make the case that the mass lockdown don't help that much.
Because Sweden is doing well, that's not the point, I saw. I look. his own thread and said, there's more evidence in your own tweet thread the vitamin d levels- are the main other, mainly because true that it doesn't matter if you have a mask, were locked there were not you get wildly different results look up. The people who do well all seem to be the vitamin d supplement people. Is that a coincidence? Is that a coincidence? It could be so. The first thing you should say to yourself as Jaska. That could be a coincidence. It totally could be a coincidence but what I am saying is that all of the other correlations or causation say you imagine, you see, don't believe them they're, just not credible. is the vitamin d correlation gravel? No, no
not based on the little better data that I just mentioned, is not credible and all, but it's not less credible than the idea that masks and bans dont work and that Sweden is telling you that How many of our stories today stories in the news are based on just lies: let's go through them, so we ve got the corona situation, which the that that's been filled with life we ve got. The Russia collusion thing and who is behind it, that's filled with lies, is all about wise, the stimulus deal being off, but the stimulus, was never really being negotiated. was a lie that it was ever been negotiated because it wasn't so that's just align see what else
Facebook is better than cure now, because those lies Surprise, my gear revolt release some scholars rest before it, because the document they got Pulitzer Prize, haven't been lie. You see a pattern. The pattern is pretty clear. All of our biggest problems are based on the fact that we now have a credible news mean as soon as your news source becomes completely non credible. Then all of your news, because bullshit just all bullshit. Every one of our problems is bullshit, but the problem is real.
But what people are saying about. It is just not true. Somebody says that an conflicted about cobbler, because she's, my creation, see you get blocked for saying stuff like that, because that's a mine, mine reading thing, sir. Second, after move something block, you smaller than a blocking next time again next time. So if they could uses you the the blocking is when you Where do you ascribe opinions to neither inaccurate, you can ask me my opinion and you can certainly criticise my opinion when you sign of opinion to me that I do not hold and then criticise it, you get blocked.
Pension Saddam saying pencils more disciplined than Trump. I think that's that's! That's true is more discipline less interesting. That is all I for now and I'll talk to you Ferris goobers tomorrow, and you you tumors still with you. Look at your comments here as we close up. Is anybody enjoying the Youtube experience better, so you might have? No, I took out my my airpods that I was using for the microphone. I now see anybody. who the sound is echoing? Ok, that's what else can ask so you you're a little echo lemme, give you a little up there on the sound, because so many of you have asked for it now
people. Seventy Scott, you should have greater sound system. Yes,. I sure I've got every kind of sound device. You could with a whole raft of irons and under equipment of God. I've got this. I've got to get this. Now this here's, what I've learned, because I've experimented with all this stuff- if you do super ion stuff like that, assure microphone and the sound boards etc. You can make that work, But only if you ever a sound proof room, because this kind of microphone will pick up too much room noise and you get way too much. The the preferred method I just bought a boy at another level here to use that the lovelier when Eclipse on, doesn't give you the floor. Richness of the the high and sound system with a sound proof, room
But you can use this in a non soundproof room without the echo on periscope. The sound is pretty good, it's not as good as that. The best that can be able is fine, and I had to order a second one of these so you use it with you do so. Here's of online the sound will be different in a few days on Youtube without the echo, and I think that will be the best that could be. I have tried, For four years, every possible sound and video combination- and this is what I've learned you can't beat the video from an Iphone or an Ipad. So this is just my iphone that you're you're watching right now, it's the best video. If you get any kind of high end camera, you can get a better video, but the complexity of a high end, camera cuz. You have to run it through other equipment and other software.
It basically makes it completely unusable because you can get it to work, but the very second time you want to you wanted to work. Some software will be updating. Something went off something time now you just never works twice So the Iphone or the Ipad is the number one way to get a clean video that works every time, but to get the sound I guess I've I've purchase expensive, sound borders such as this one sentence. And I've learned to live with it all up. I've got I've, sound, proved room, room, different room in the house, I've tried every combination of microphones and the best kind buying some pretty high and stuff
And nothing works as well as a twenty dollar plugin lovelier microphone on an Ipad. Nothing comes close now I could, come close. If I had a full time engineer, it was designed for sound and then this high end equipment and then the engineer troubleshooting it everyday cuz. You have to troubleshoot it every time you use it. all right. So I decided to give you that the updated- and I will talk to you tomorrow,.
