1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,580 You know, everybody I knew, the world I lived in in Northwest D.C., like everyone works either 2 00:00:04,580 --> 00:00:11,140 directly for the government or is a parasite on government effectively, including people I love 3 00:00:11,140 --> 00:00:16,260 and know really well. And the media is, too, by the way. I mean, the media is reporting on 4 00:00:16,260 --> 00:00:21,120 government, but it's also dependent on government. You know, in 2008, it became really clear that 5 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:26,400 Barack Obama had been having sex with men and smoking crack. And a guy came forward, 6 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:30,520 Larry Sinclair, and said, I'll sign an affidavit. And he did. I'll take a lie detector. And he did. 7 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,660 I smoked crack with Barack Obama and had sex with him. Well, that was obviously true. 8 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:41,680 Nobody reported it, not because they were squeamish about sex or drugs, but because the 9 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:46,240 Obama campaign said anyone who reports on this gets no access to the Obama campaign. 10 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:52,160 And so they didn't report on it. So that happens. That's just one small example. But that happens 11 00:00:52,160 --> 00:00:58,400 all the time with lots of different issues. Now, do you believe that transpired? Or do you believe 12 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:05,080 the guy is legitimate or both? Oh, the Larry Sinclair story? Oh, that definitely happened. 13 00:01:05,340 --> 00:01:10,220 Oh, for sure. I mean, I've talked to Larry Sinclair about it. And oh, definitely it happened. I mean, 14 00:01:10,260 --> 00:01:16,120 if you Larry Sinclair's been in and out of prison during one period, I mean, you know, 40 years ago, 15 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:21,960 he was in and out of prison. He's got a criminal record by definition. He's, you know, poor. 16 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:28,920 He's got a disordered life. He's missing a tooth. Like he's not, you know, an Atlantic fellow. 17 00:01:29,320 --> 00:01:34,560 He's not going to the Aspen Ideas Festival. I think he has a record of deception. Obviously, 18 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:41,280 he does. But this story, if you listen to it in detail, is clearly true. I mean, there's just 19 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,240 I'm going to do an interview with him and you can hear it. And again, it's not going to change the 20 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:50,640 world that Barack Obama likes dudes. I think this was well known. Barack Obama said so himself in 21 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,480 a letter to his girlfriend. And by the way, that's kind of Barack Obama's business. I'm not attacking 22 00:01:54,480 --> 00:02:02,740 him for for liking dudes. I'm just saying the amount of lying in the media about it was unbelievable. 23 00:02:02,740 --> 00:02:09,060 Like people knew this was true. And it was quite obviously true at the time. And people who covered 24 00:02:09,060 --> 00:02:13,100 the campaign didn't say anything about it because they didn't want to lose access to the campaign. 25 00:02:13,100 --> 00:02:17,900 And that happens all the time, up and down government. So it's almost like if you have 26 00:02:17,900 --> 00:02:21,780 a housekeeper, you think, oh, you know, she works for me. But if you have a housekeeper 27 00:02:21,780 --> 00:02:26,140 long enough, you realize, well, you actually work for her and you get caught up in her dramas. 28 00:02:26,380 --> 00:02:29,660 You know what I mean? Like, yeah, there's a weird dynamic 29 00:02:29,660 --> 00:02:34,880 where you switch places with people. 30 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:39,960 So, you know, and by the way, fire her abruptly and she'll write a tell all book 31 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:45,980 about exactly. That's exactly right. And, you know, we we don't even have a full time 32 00:02:45,980 --> 00:02:49,600 housekeeper. So, like, that's not gonna be an issue for me. But the point is, you think 33 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,000 you're holding government accountable, but actually they're controlling you. 34 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,280 That's really the dynamic in Washington. But, you know, you're living in the soup and it's 35 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:02,880 hard to see it at work. And this is a long way of saying the conclusions I've reached 36 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,680 are middle aged conclusions. And that's a lot of it. It's just that I've gotten older 37 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,680 and you can't see certain things when you're younger. And it's like young people, 38 00:03:11,060 --> 00:03:14,720 you'd think they'd be the most open minded of all. They're the least open minded 39 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:19,320 because they're afraid of the future. So they want to believe whatever storyline 40 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,340 they've been fed is true. Like the only problem with America is white supremacy. 41 00:03:23,340 --> 00:03:27,800 And like our tax system is fair. And Kennedy was assassinated by a lone gunman or whatever. 42 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:34,900 They don't want to, they don't want to face like the terrifying unknown and complexities 43 00:03:34,900 --> 00:03:42,640 of the actual world we live in, the reality of life, which is like, we have no freaking 44 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,140 idea what's going on, actually. They don't want to admit that.
