If we need to tell you, a new migrant, not to rape people or abuse children or mutilate girls, we shouldn't allow you or people who agree with you to do that. So, if you're a new migrant, into our civilization. I know, this is a shocking idea, right? But if you say those kinds of things, you will indeed be called racist, xenophobic, Islamophobic, perhaps. And that's why, en masse, we have now imported people who hate our civilization. And then we have to ask those same people super duper nicely, like, please, please, would you please abide by basic standards of human decency? We'll get to the latest in the UK, where the Home Office is now having to inform new third world migrants that they could, could they please just stop being quite so rapey? Moderna's stock spikes on news of an incredible medical breakthrough, and we examine why America's healthcare system is still the most innovative on planet Earth, and America hits $40 trillion in debt. This is The Ben Shapiro Show. So, pretty good indicator somebody should not come to your house for dinner. They arrive at your house, they knock on the door, and as you open the door, you say, please don't rape my wife or daughter. You made a bad mistake. You should not have invited this person to your house. You should have invited this person to your house for dinner. I know, this is pretty baseline. If I have to tell you not to be rapey, you probably shouldn't be at my house. But in the West, we now consider this rude. And so we just roll out the red carpet. So, the UK Home Office put out a brochure, apparently for new migrants. It's unbelievable, this brochure. This brochure, according to the Daily Mail, was a seven-page booklet, and it was published in the wake of a series of horrific rapes and sex attacks by asylum seekers. And it was published in the wake of a series of horrific rapes and sex attacks by asylum seekers. We don't know where they come from. We don't know. It's a mystery. It's a mystery wrapped in an enigma. So, here is what this asylum brochure recommends. Quote, in the UK, both people must say yes to sex. This is called consent. If you have sex with someone who does not want to, this is called rape. Rape is a serious crime. It is still rape if you are married to the person or in a relationship they agreed once, but changed their mind. If you have sex without consent, you could go to prison. This will affect you. If you have sex without consent, your asylum claim. Hey, that is slide number one. So, just information. Consent is where you don't get to rape people. Two, child abuse is a serious crime in the UK. Child abuse is against the law. You must never physically hurt a child. Have sex or sexual contact with a child under 16. Deny a child food, clothes, shelter, or care. Cut or harm a girl's genitals. Notice female genital mutilation. Welcome to our country. Please don't cut the clitoris off your baby. Great job, UK. You're doing great. It's all awesome. Don't worry. There's more. It is illegal to harass people. In the UK, everyone has the right to feel safe in public. You must never make sexual comments to strangers. Approach someone repeatedly if they're not interested. Follow someone or block their path. If you do this, you might be arrested. Also, quote, in the UK, men and women are equal. And then I love the graphic. The graphic is men wearing a hijab, which as we'll get to, uh, you know, like historically speaking and in current day, a little controversial given the fact that many women are not wearing hijab voluntarily. Well, um, they say in the UK, men and women are equal. So welcome to the UK. Try not to rape anyone. You're doing great, UK. You're doing awesome. Now, why would they have to do this? Why would they have to issue such a booklet? Hmm. Hmm. It's a mystery. Why? Why? Well, the book is called Prey. It's a book about a young Muslim woman who was a Muslim woman. She was a Muslim woman who ended up then having to become a refugee from Europe because she was targeted for being anti-radical Islam. She has a book called Prey that came out a few years ago, P-R-E-Y, about the violent predations of young Muslim men arriving in Europe en masse. And as she points out, between 2009 and 2021, almost 3 million people arrived illegally in Europe, a majority from Muslim countries. Two thirds of them were male. 80% were under the age of 35. And unsurprisingly, the rates of rape and sexual assault skyrocketed in pretty much every European country. In some countries like Denmark and England, they went up a lot, roughly doubling in the case of Denmark. In Denmark, non-Western immigrants and their descendants account for about two fifths of rape convictions and between a quarter and a third of groping convictions, even though they are less than 13% of the population. In Germany, asylum seekers constituted only one or two percent of the population from 2015, but they made up nearly 12% of suspects for sex crimes by 2018. And they were responsible for 16.3% of grievous sex crimes like rape. So it turns out when you import lots of people from countries that don't respect women, you're going to vastly increase rates of violation of women and also your generalized Western standards. Again, this doesn't mean all migrants are rapists or that all migrants are doing terrible things. But when you bring in large numbers of people who believe things that are antithetical to Western ideals, many of those people will commit crimes by your standards. And again, there have been some pretty highly publicized cases of this. Remember that there have been Christmas markets. Not only have they been attacked by terrorists, but also there have been Christmas events where women are being groped en masse or raped in Europe. And that is happening for a reason. When you import a bunch of people who don't like the West and don't agree with their standards, they might continue to do those things no matter how many nice brochures you put out about, please don't mutilate your child and please don't rape people. Again, the first sign the person should not be rapist is that they're not a racist. They're not a racist. You have to tell them, please don't rape people. That is sign number one. It's a red flag, shall we say. Now, again, unfortunately, not all people all over the world believe like you do. Probably the single biggest problem in politics generally is your projection of your own mindset onto everyone else. Most of the world does not agree with the West when it comes to its treatment of women. This is why it's always ironic when you see European women who are stumping for Muslim men in radical Muslim countries. Like, do you know what they think of you? Are you aware of this? Chickens for KFC in many of these cases. There is a U.N. survey that was done some years back of more than 4,000 men in Morocco, Egypt, the Palestinian areas, and Lebanon. And it found that between one-third and two-thirds of men admitted to sexually harassing women in public. Axios reported at the time of the nearly 5,000 men surveyed, between 31% in Lebanon and 64% in Egypt admitted to having sexually harassed women and girls in public from ogling to stalking to rape. When asked about it, by the way, they said that they did it for fun. And also, the majority of them blamed the women. So, again, not super surprising. It's more on this in a moment. First, there's a point every night when I am officially done. The show is done. The emails are done. The kids are asleep. Nobody needs anything from me for at least the next six hours. And getting into bed at that moment is great. But getting into a comfortable bed makes it so much better. And this is so true. I get in bed, I pull up my Bull & Branch blankets, and I am so happy. It's like the best point in the day, right before you go to sleep. Everybody's doing well. Everybody's cool. And you're about to get a good night's sleep. That's what Bull & Branch gets right. Their sheets are made from 100% organic cotton and woven for airflow. So, they're naturally breathable without synthetic cooling technology or chemical treatments. 94% of Bull & Branch customers say their sheets get softer with every single wash. That's unusual because most things you own slowly get worse. These apparently get better. Once you upgrade the sheets, and maybe add the pillows, comforter, or waffle blanket, the entire bed feels different. I'm a big fan of the waffle blanket, by the way. It's a very simple luxury. At the end of a very long day, you get into bed and you think, this was a good decision. Sleep cooler this summer with Bull & Branch.

There's a pupil from 2013, a very comprehensive pupil, some 38,000 Muslims in 80 countries. And - Yes. pretty shocking, particularly when it came to the treatment of women. So here is one of the questions, should women decide if they wear a veil? Meaning that, is it voluntary or not? So in some areas, people said, sure, women should decide. This would be like Azerbaijan or Turkey or Uzbekistan. Most men surveyed, actually most men and women, right? Like the majority of people surveyed said, yes, the woman should decide. But sub-Saharan Africa, somewhere between 29 and 48% said that women should decide. And the vast majority said, no, no, no, no, no. The woman goes into the burqa or the hijab, regardless of what she thinks. In Iraq, Jordan, and Egypt, only 45% said the woman should decide. In Afghanistan, just 30% said the woman should decide. How about, must a wife always obey her husband? In the Middle East and North Africa, that answer is 80 to 90%. 83% yes. In Southeast Asia, the number was 90 to 96% saying yes. How about, should a wife have the right to divorce her husband? Now again, in Islam, divorce is not forbidden. So we're not talking here about Catholic standards of divorce. So the question is for Muslims, should a wife have the right to divorce her husband? So in certain more European areas like Albania and Europe, 84% say yes. In Turkey, 85% said yes, this is 2013. In the Palestinian areas, only one third said yes. In Pakistan, 26%. 26% said yes. And in Egypt and Jordan, 22% said yes. So you are talking about areas of the world where it turns out they do not treat women particularly well. Women in many of these areas are treated as chattel. In some of these countries, marriage is legal to children. Saudi Arabia, it is still legal to children. And then illegally, many men are still marrying children in a lot of these countries. So when you import a lot of people from areas that disagree with Western standards of conduct and morality to your countries, you should not be super surprised that they are doing things that you consider criminal. This is not a shock in any way, shape, or form. And again, failure to understand the standards is one of the ways that you allow yourself to be overtaken. One of the themes of our brand new movie, Run, Hide, Fight, Infidels, coming September 16th, that a society that, in Gad Saad's phrase, is suicidally empathetic, tends to allow in people who are perfectly willing to turn the standards of the society against it and destroy it. And again, you're seeing that right here in the United States. You're seeing this pretty much every day in Dearborn, where it seems like every day there's some sort of confrontation. Again, the mayor of Dearborn literally told people that if you don't want to name a street after a Hezbollah member in America, that you should actually not be in Dearborn. You should just leave the city. Does this seem like a Western standard to you, precisely? Hezbollah bombed the embassy in Beirut, including many Americans, so I just feel it's quite inappropriate. You are an Islamophobe. And although you live here, I want you to know, as mayor, you are not welcome here. And the day you move out of the city will be the day that I launch a parade celebrating the fact that you moved out of the city, because you are not somebody who believes in coexistence. You don't believe in coexistence if you don't want a street named after a terrorist. It's how it works in Dearborn. That'd be Abdullah Hamoud. The mayor of Dearborn, and chief constituency for Abdul El-Sayed. And of course, you have imams all over Dearborn, who are constantly railing in terms of radical Islam. Here's a clip of one Dearborn imam calling for the deaths of Christians and Jews and Americans to boot. Does Allah annihilate the Jews and the Christians? Annihilate the Jews. They are no match for you. Oh Allah, count them and kill them one by one. And do not spare a single one of them, O Lord. Of mankind. So again, import people who hate your civilization, and it turns out they might hate your civilization. I know these are crazy, crazy thoughts. They're crazy thoughts. But Westerners are particularly self-centered and stupid. And this is why you have Western women traveling to places like Suta to chant free Palestine, while men surround them who look like they would, you know, maybe prefer to have them at a Christmas market. Shall we say? Here is a clip of a woman who calls herself Barbie Gaza. Her name is Anna Al-Khaldi. She has 140,000 Instagram followers. She went on the Gaza flotilla with Greta Thunberg. She, by the way, says that Hamas didn't rape anybody on October 7th, of course. And she said that one of the Israeli women who was released said she felt ugly because nothing was done to her. I mean, again, she's a delight, this woman. But people who hate your civilization are willing to use the idiots among you. That is for sure. Here she was in Suta, which, again, there's still like several thousand migrants who crossed that border into Suta. And the place has basically been turned into a trash heap. Here is Barbie Gaza. Oh, the geniuses among us. And her bare midriff. Unbelievable. Okay, but again, this is what the West is doing to itself. Or we could just stop doing it. And if you want a right-wing upsurge, please continue to do this. If you're on the left, please continue to do this. Here's the thing. They don't even keep stats for this sort of thing. I'm talking about like rape, sexual assault, female genital mutilation. If you try to go to the UK and find out even how many migrants are Muslim, they don't even keep that stat in the UK. Because the West has basically decided that in the name of the idea that all cultures are equivalent and all people have the same belief system, we are going to frontally lobotomize ourselves. It's not going to end particularly well. That's the argument. It's not going to end well for the West. Okay, now to America and some better news. So here is the thing. America continues to kick ass in the most important ways. Now, the reason I say this sort of stuff, why I try to give the white pill sometimes is because everybody's so down on America that they kind of want to just kill all the things that make America awesome because we've got problems. I admit we have many problems. I agree we have many, but I think most of those problems are caused by government regulation and interventionism. But one of the things that people are doing left, right, and center is they are saying that if there's a problem, let's just destroy the system that created all the good stuff. That is a mistake. It's one of the reasons why we have a show called Titans on Tomorrow, where I go and talk to some of the most successful people in American history about what comes next. We have a new episode of Titans on Tomorrow that is coming out this week with Steve Ballmer, who is, of course, the CEO of Microsoft. Here's a little bit of a preview. My dad worked at Ford Motor Company. And I got to Microsoft in the 80s. And by the mid-80s, we were producing these things called floppy disks. They were about this big. You waggled them around. There was no factory to speak of. I mean, there's a little place where they were copying them. And my dad would come to Microsoft and he said, what do all these people do? I mean, you don't have anything that comes out the other end. Where's the factory? If you go to these big data centers today, you are going to the factories of today. Nobody would turn down a new factory in the U.S. to go build a few more cars. Now, again, the point that he's making is that innovation is great and building is great. In just a second, we'll get into what's right with America's health care system. I know you always hear what's wrong, but actually, there's a bunch of stuff that's wrong. And I'm going to tell you a little bit about that. We need to talk about it so we can properly diagnose what is wrong. First, New York Times readership among young Americans has cratered, which is great because nobody wants the woke schooled lecturer dressed up in a journalism costume. Here's the thing. While legacy media hemorrhages trust across the board, PragerU is providing hope for the rising generation. Millions of students log on every day for five-minute videos on economics, history, faith, and freedom that teach the truth, not what CNN and others want young people to believe.

Go help them right now at PragerU.com slash DailyWire. And start winning that information war today. And the point of the spear on the anti-capitalist movement in the United States is our healthcare system. Medicare for all is the claim. It's terrible. And let's be real. We all hate having to deal with the healthcare system because you're never going to be in a hospital on your best day. You're never going to be dealing with doctors and insurance companies on your best day. It's the worst part of your life, always, because health problems are the worst part of anybody's life. And let's be clear. Our healthcare system has real problems. A huge percentage of our spend is on administration and bureaucracy and regulatory compliance, like one third of the total cost. Medical malpractice eats up enormous sums of money. But we should be clear about something. America's healthcare system is by far the most innovative healthcare system on planet Earth. We hold up the healthcare system for the rest of the world, for literally the rest, just as our economy is the basis for the rest of the global economy, our healthcare system is also the basis for the rest of the global healthcare system. Why? Well, because at Root, medical care is about supply. What are the new treatments? What are the new innovations? The reason people live longer is because we come up with better solutions to very old problems. Who is coming up with those solutions? Well, this brings us to Moderna's huge breakthrough announcement yesterday. Now, Moderna's kind of a fascinating story as a company, right? They're around for years and years and years and years. And they did the mRNA vaccine, which of course was extremely controversial. Some people claim that it cut death rates for people who are obese and old. That was not great for people who were younger and obviously not appropriate for kids. I tend to think that's what the data shows. Other people are just very anti-Moderna and anti-mRNA vaccines generally. There's only one problem. Innovation comes in many forms. And it turns out that as the Wall Street Journal reported yesterday, an experimental mRNA vaccine has succeeded in preventing cancer from coming back or spreading in a study of high-risk melanoma patients. Moderna and its partner Merck said Wednesday, paving the way for a potentially life-extending treatment for the thousands of people diagnosed with the deadly skin cancer each year. Moderna shares more than doubled Wednesday. Merck's stock hit an all-time high. And the positive results rippled through the drug industry as investors saw potential for more future blockbusters. This is the second major oncology breakthrough in recent months after a different drug succeeded in extending the lives of people with pancreatic cancer, a notoriously lethal disease. So every day, pretty much every day, we are coming up with extraordinary medical innovations here in the United States. You know, the big pharma companies that people like to rip on, the ones that are keeping your parents and your grandparents alive and creating new treatments so that you will live longer. We rip on those each and every day because people don't understand how exactly the medical innovation industry works. They don't get it. But it is not a coincidence that the vast majority of medical innovation, serious medical innovation, happens in the United States. And again, these treatments are coming online pretty much every day. The question of how long you will live is a matter of you just biding time until the medical industry solves your problems. That is the reality. Fox yesterday was reporting on a Parkinson's patient whose tremor is vanishing with a new ultrasound treatment. Like we're coming up with new treatments. When I say we, I mean these companies, right? People with actual medical knowledge doing experimentation innovation. One million Americans are living with Parkinson's disease, but a newly expanded treatment is changing the game. Doctors are now using ultrasound tech to target some of the most debilitating symptoms. There is one man who lived with a severe tremor for years. And after undergoing this treatment, the shaking was gone within minutes and no surgery was done. No surgery was even required. That patient, Air Force veteran Bud Level and his doctor, Dr. Bhavia Shah, join us now. The way this works is that there are multiple ultrasound transducers all around the skull. And they each send their own ultrasound beam that crosses the skull onto a specific point in the brain. And that's where you get the maximum energy deposition. While we're doing this procedure, we can use the low energy ultrasound waves and then go examine the patient. And make sure that their symptoms are getting better and that they're not having any side effects. Okay, this is called magic. Okay, this is magic. When science is sufficiently good at solving problems, it becomes indistinguishable from magic. It's sort of an Arthur C. Clarke paraphrase. That's a reality. AI is going to have massive impact on how you and your parents and your grandparents live. According to the Wall Street Journal, patients and families are turning to AI to help pinpoint conditions. By the way, I've done this myself. It's unbelievable. It's differential diagnosis. It's very often better than what doctors can do. Not because doctors are ignorant, because doctors are limited by what they can instantaneously recall. AI is especially adept at flagging potential rare and hard to diagnose diseases because doctors often are trying to diagnose based on the probability, right? You come in with a set of symptoms, 95% probability. It is not this thing. They focus on the 95% probability, but it may be in the other 5%, right? In a study published last year in a Journal of American Medicine journal, researchers took 90 complex rare disease cases that had already been solved and tested AI chatbots' abilities to suggest the right diagnosis. The two chatbots doubled the probability of getting it right. Again, AI is extraordinary at this because it has infinite memory, essentially. Now, how does all this happen? You don't want to kill the golden goose, right? This is magic. And let's be real about this. Again, the United States is by far the disproportionate provider of all medical innovation on planet Earth By far, it is not close. The U.S. conducts, according to the FDA, 35% of all global clinical trials. We command over 50% of early phase trials involving high-risk therapeutics, and we take all the risks. Other countries' pharma developments are subsidized by American research. When it comes to major medical innovations, there's a study a few years back looking at 27 major medical innovations. 20 of them were developed in the United States. 55% of global clinical innovations in global biopharmaceutical research and development investments happened in the United States. Why? Well, because we invest extraordinary amounts of capital. Extraordinary amounts of capital in R&D. Every year, the United States, our markets, we invest $180 to $200 billion into R&D in the medical field, including corporate pharma, federal grants, venture capital, M&A, and corporate ventures. And it costs that amount of money to develop new drugs. Why? Well, because most new drugs fail. It is not that every new drug that is successful costs a billion dollars to develop. It's that if you're Merck, you develop five drugs. Maybe one of them makes it all the way through FDA approval, and the other four fail out. But you have to spend money on all of them until they fail out. And so the trial failure rate, the trial error rate is really high, right? You have a huge fail rate, but that means you need extraordinary amounts of capital. And guess what? America's magic. We have gigantic pools of capital. This is why when people talk about the stock market, how does it help me? The answer is those gigantic pools of capital drive the innovative risks that lead to actual innovation. That's the reality. And this is a point that Jeff Bezos made not long ago, that the thing that really distinguishes the United States from other countries is not just our tax structure, because other countries have tax structures. The thing that distinguishes the United States is our gigantic pools of liquidity. What's really going on with all this dynamism in this country compared to what we see around elsewhere in the world? And the prime, there are a bunch of reasons for that, but the biggest one, eight of 10 points there, is that we have better risk capital. It's not the banking system. You know, we have a good banking system, but so does Europe. What's different here is that you can get, you can raise, you know, $50 million of seed capital to do something that only has a 10% chance of working. That's crazy. And, but the people who are giving you that seed capital know that the, that their expected value is still positive in many cases, or they're at least gambling that that's true. That risk capital system that we have in this country is turning out to be very hard for other countries to duplicate. Again, this is a really important point. The reason we innovate here is because we have a capitalist system. Other systems that don't reward in the same way and that don't have gigantic pools of liquidity don't do this. They don't do this kind of research. They don't. And foreign governments are living off the back of this. And we'll get to that in a minute. This is the real reason you are paying too much for drugs is because foreign governments are basically unionizing against American drug manufacturers. And we'll get to that. That's a thing that the administration really should do something about. But when you hear from people on the left and some on the right, we need to completely remake our entire healthcare, Medicare for all. We need a nationalized single payer. Understand the thing that raises America's life expectancy. And by the way, what global life expectancy is the innovation of the American healthcare system. That is the thing. So if you kill the golden goose, everybody dies early. Coming up, we'll myth bust some things about the American healthcare system because you've heard a lot of stuff that just isn't true. First, we need to myth bust some stuff about money. Okay, so here is the thing. Your money, you know, like the cash that you're holding in your hand right now, it will be worth less than it is currently worth in about now. And also like now. Because the reality is the federal government is constantly making paper money less worthwhile. There are some assets, however, that actually appreciate in value. A lot of those are hard assets. This is why I like the idea of giving a young person a gold or silver coin. It's not just a cool gift. You're handing them their first little asset and potentially starting a conversation about saving, investing, and the difference between buying things and owning things. And maybe that conversation gets you thinking about your own portfolio. If physical gold or silver is something you've been considering, Golden Crest Metals makes it approachable. They're a boutique firm with real people who know the business, transparent pricing, and widely recognized coins rather than private label products. They'll send you a free investor kit explaining your options including how gold and silver can be added to certain retirement accounts plus a free no-obligation portfolio review.

So, in order for us to actually diagnose what's wrong with our medical system, we should be at least accurate about what's wrong with our medical system and what's right. So, here are a lot of myths about the American medical system on a myth bus and a few of these myths so that we actually know what we're looking at and what we ought to fix because otherwise what you end up with is the idiocy of Medicare for All where you can't see the doctor you want, where you can't get the medical care that you want, where somebody else decides that for you. So, myth number one, and you hear this all the time, our life expectancy is lower because of our healthcare system here in the United States. This is wrong. It is wrong for two particular reasons. One, it isn't really lower because you're comparing apples to oranges. And second, if it is lower, it is not due to our health healthcare system, it's due to other factors. Okay, so When you compare life expectancy, you have to compare apples to apples, not apples to cucumbers. You can't take an American population that is racially diverse, fat, has higher rates of drug abuse, suicide, and murder, and measures death itself differently, and then compare it to a population like, say, Switzerland, that is racially homogenous, diets completely differently, doesn't drug or suicide or murder, and measures infant mortality differently. You can't do that. Okay, so take a look, for example, at the average racial life expectancy breakdown in the United States, right? Because we actually have some data about who lives long in the United States. And what you find is that there's pretty significant striation in life expectancy in the United States. So if you're an Asian American in the United States, then you are likely to live the average life expectancy for Asians in the United States, for Asian Americans, about 85 years. Okay, well, here is the thing. If you compare the Asian American life expectancy to, say, the Japanese life expectancy, it turns out it's the same. So if you're going to compare American life expectancy to Japanese life expectancy, that's stupid. You should actually compare Japanese life expectancy to, say, Japanese living in American life expectancy, right? You're keeping all the factors equivalent, except for the healthcare system and lifestyle. And what it turns out is it's kind of the same. How about Hispanics in the United States? Life expectancy in the United States, for Hispanics, at last time of measurement, was about 81. Well, the life expectancy for Mexicans is 75. For Mexican Americans, it's like 78 to 80. So you actually live slightly longer if you're a Mexican American than if you are a Mexican, for example. If you're white in the United States, your life expectancy average, about 78. Black, 74. Native American, 70. Now, again, the problem is the confound, because I can name you half a dozen countries that are majority black that have lower life expectancies than black Americans. So if you're a Mexican American, you're going to have to pick population groups that are similar in genetic makeup, for example, because that has an impact on health. And there are certain health conditions that are just diagnosed differently based on race. Sickle cell anemia, most famously. So, again, keep all of the confounds out and you will get a better statistical examination. Then you have to look at the reasons for death in the United States. Because if you're going to blame the healthcare system, what you don't want to do is blame the healthcare system for people's health. So if you're going to blame the healthcare system, what you want to do is blame the healthcare system for people's health. So if you're going to blame the healthcare system for people's health. So if you're going to blame the healthcare system for shooting each other when they're 20, which brings down the life expectancy. So one of the things that you see here is Peterson KFF, the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, Global Burden of Disease Data. They put together this chart. And what it shows is deaths per 100,000 population aged 15 to 49, the United States versus comparable countries. So what you see is ours was higher than comparable countries, but it was trending in a similar direction, like down, deaths per 100,000 population. And then we kind of stagnated around 1985 and we didn't really keep going down and everybody else kept going down. Why? Well, it turns out we have a lot of deaths that are attributable to, for example, drugs. We have a lot of deaths that are attributable to heart disease, a huge number of heart disease deaths, which is diet based, huge number of murders in the United States and huge number of car accidents in the United States. And when you remove all of those confounds, it turns out our death rates decline pretty much. Remarkably, we also measure deaths differently than the Europeans do when it comes to infant mortality. So, for example, in the United States, when a baby is born, no matter how preemie, we consider that baby a life. And then if that baby dies in, say, the first week of preemiedom, that is now a death. That has a major impact on your life expectancy stats, even with small numbers. Because if you have a person who dies at age zero and a person who dies at age 100, the average life expectancy is now 50. But if you are the UK and you just don't measure it, you're not a death. So, for example, if you have a person who dies at age zero and a the preemie as a life, then your average life expectancy is 100, right? Because the zero went away. That's how math works. There are studies by the National Bureau of Economic Research that indicates that differences in data reporting alone makes up roughly 30% of the statistical mortality gap between the U.S. and certain European nations. So, the point that I'm making here is there are a lot of reasons for the statistical life expectancy gap between us and other countries, but you have to compare apples to apples and also you have to do the measurements the same way. Okay. Myth number two, we spend too much on healthcare fundamentally because our system is broken. And now, again, there are serious problems in our system, mainly the problem of administration and bureaucracy. If we had no administration and no bureaucracy, we reduce our costs by probably one-third. If we reduce medical malpractice problems, we reduce our costs. But here is a fascinating chart. Okay. This is a chart and it shows healthcare spending versus GDP per capita, 2024 from our world in data. And again, this data comes from a variety of sources, including the WHO, IMF, and World Bank. What do you see? Basically, what you see in this chart is a straight-line correlation between health expenditure per capita and GDP per capita. In other words, how much you spend as a country on health is highly correlated to how much you make. Now, there are certain outliers that spend less than that line would suggest. Singapore, Brunei, Saudi Arabia. There are a few that are sort of under the line, but this is a pretty, pretty obvious correlation. So, here's the thing. We're a very rich country and we spend a lot of money on our healthcare. And we predominantly spend a lot of money on our upper-end healthcare. That's really where we spend our money. We're an older country, so we spend a lot of money on our old people. If you look at the actual stats in the United States, our health expenditures, $22,356 per person on people over the age of 65 in 2020. That is five times the number of people who spend $25,000 per person on people over the age of 65 in 2020. Per person, what we spend on kids, and 2.5 what we spend on working-age people, right? Because as you get toward the end of your life, you have more health problems. And we expend extraordinary amounts of money in the United States to keep people alive for small amounts of time. And we all have a grandmother who had to spend an enormous amount of time in a hospital before she passed away. And that's very, very normal. And when that happens, you're spending a lot of money to marginally increase lifespan. That's just the way that it works in Western countries. 18% of the population in the United States in 2020 was 65+, but it accounted for 37% of all spending in the healthcare industry in 2020. And a huge percentage of that spending is happening via Medicare and Medicaid. The largest share of healthcare spending is the federal government. So the idea that we need more federal government interventionism in a healthcare system, and this will lower costs, again, 31% of all healthcare spending in 2024 was sponsored by the federal government. Okay, but where are we really spending a lot of money? Some of the areas where we disproportionately spend money on, for example, cancer care, which is why we have a lot of innovation in that space, because there's a huge market in the United States for, for example, cancer treatments, which is why the United States has some of the best cancer survival rates of anywhere on planet Earth. According to the OECD, we consistently rank among global leaders in five-year cancer survival rates for major adult cancers. And that is, by the way, despite high screening rates, meaning we screen really carefully when it comes to cancer. In the United States, so we identify a lot of cancer, and then we treat it really, really well. We're really good at it. If you're in the UK, there's a reason rich people in the UK or Canada come to the United States if they've got cancer. They're not going to wait in line and die because their nationalized healthcare system is not doing a good job of it. So, for example, prostate cancer survivability is 98% in the United States. It's about 85% in the EU. Melanoma survivability is 94% in the United States. These are five-year survival rates, 86% in the EU. Breast cancer survivability, 91% in the United States. Breast cancer survivability, in the United States, 85% in the EU. Virtually all major cancers, we are statistically significantly higher in terms of survivability than other countries. Again, this is white pilling because I think it's important to know what is wrong and what we're doing wrong, what we can fix. I mean, Tulsi Gabbard was talking about this literally today. Her husband was diagnosed with severe cancer, and she made an announcement today that his treatment is going well. We talked with our doctors and said, okay, what are our options? One is a very invasive surgery to remove the bottom part of Abraham's sacrum and his tailbone, and the other option was radiation. So, we scheduled the surgery as quickly as we could. A few weeks after the surgery was done, the pathologist and the doctors said that they are confident that they were able to cut out all of the cancerous bone and tissue. So, here we are now, almost three months after, and he started a very rigorous physical therapy program. He gets frustrated a lot because he wants to be able to make progress faster, and sometimes he's pushed a little bit too far, but overall, Abraham is progressing very well. Again, when you rip on the system, recognize at least what the system does and what it is and what it's good for. And one of the reasons we spend a lot of money here is because other countries, because they're nationalized, they will reject people for treatments based on cost benchmarks, right? It costs too much, so we can't pay for it. In the United States, insurers are legally mandated to cover broad drugs. Which brings us to the fourth big myth, that healthcare in the United States is wildly unequal. Now, that's not a myth because it's totally untrue. Obviously, if you're rich, you can get better healthcare than if you're poor. This is true literally everywhere on earth, except areas where everyone gets crappy healthcare. We can be equal in our poverty or unequal in our prosperity. That is the way this works. And innovation, right, the things that are luxurious, all innovation, all of it, starts off as a luxury for rich people, and then it becomes a necessity. This is true for every thing in your life, except for like basic, basic, basic nutrition. And if you go back far enough, it's probably true of basic nutrition as well. if the cell phone you carry in your pocket was a luxury i use this example a lot because it's obvious if you go back and you watch like old movies from the 1950s the guy who was like the richest dude you ever saw was a dude who had a phone in his car that dude was like the wealthiest person ever if you had a phone on a beach you were gordon gecko in wall street walking around with a shoebox to your head and that's because he was the richest guy in america and now you have a phone that is significantly more powerful than any device that put man on the moon in your pocket, everyone, including people who are poor in the United States. Innovation starts off as a luxury, and then it becomes a necessity. So great example of this yesterday. So Bill Ackman, the investor extraordinaire, who contrary to some opinions, actually is a very smart person, very much smarter than many of the people who critique him politically. In any case, Bill Ackman, his daughter, Lucy, when she was 26, had a brain hemorrhage, and like a very serious brain hemorrhage. It was February 6th of this year. She was found unconscious on the floor of her apartment. She'd had a brain hemorrhage around 9 a.m. earlier that day. They only knew that because of the aura ring that she was wearing at the time. And she was basically unfaithful. She was not operated on for something like 19 hours, which is rare. Typically, it's a very serious brain hemorrhage. You have a brain hemorrhage and you're found unconscious, if you're outside the five-hour mark, basically, they give you up. Well, yesterday, Ackman wheeled his daughter out of Mount Sinai. Here's what that looked like. So Ackman put up a post explaining what happened. He said, by about 2.30 a.m., with the results from a CAT scan, Lucy's doctors had determined she had a massive brain hemorrhage and would need an emergency hemocraniectomy, which is basically drilling a hole in your head, to release the pressure on her brain and remove the blood from the hemorrhage. The surgery to save Lucy's life began around 3.15 a.m. and finished around 5.30 a.m. It was successful. I learned later that the standard of care is not to do the surgery to save a patient with a large brain bleed if more than five hours have passed since the hemorrhage. Even when the surgery is done, I was told the likely outcome for the patient is a few months in a nursing home and death from pneumonia. I was told that the surgery would not be successful, and he said, let's see what can be accomplished if we give her the best care possible and we invest unlimited resources to restore her to life. He said, Lucy began in a bad place. She was in a coma for several weeks and then awoke not being able to breathe on her own, unable to walk, see, or speak. Over the last six months, she has recovered her cognition. She understands everything, including her circumstance, is able to walk a hundred or more steps at a time with assistance, is making progress with sounds, vowels, and consonants at the beginnings of speech, but she remains unable to see. Lucy's vision and other faculties may require some form of brain interface. Work that is underway at Neuralink, Precision Neuroscience, Science, Synchron, Nudge, and other companies in the space. Okay, now, all of the Marxists in the audience go, how could, see, if it were my daughter, she would have died. Right, but the whole point of this story is the treatment that Ackman and his family are putting his daughter through and are developing these treatments are going to become standard of care over time because this is what happens in free markets. When rich people do a thing, and it turns out that they don't do a thing, is innovative and creative and good. It bleeds down to the rest of the population, and Ackman is trying to accelerate that with charitable works. Again, he's supposed to be the bad guy. Ackman is supposed to be the bad guy. Schmucks sitting in cabins selling you Indian made nicotine are the good guys. Bill Ackman, who is launching a $400 million brain research institute, is the bad guy. In any case, Ackman announced yesterday that Pershing Square Foundation has acquired almost 700,000 square feet of real estate on the Upper West Side, founding the Ackman-Oxman Institute to conduct brain research, rehabilitation, recovery, and longevity. He put out a post saying, the AOI will be a non-profit, but will have highly commercial instincts. It will have its own venture funding. It will work to develop innovations to create companies that we will see it assist and spin out to ensure technologies, treatments, techniques, and drugs get to patients as promptly as possible. He's again, the best way to incentivize bringing down costs and increasing innovative capacity is the profit margin. It's great. Hey, so why do I say all of this? Because we are now in the midst throughout American life of throwing the baby out with the bathwater. We are now in the midst of saying we have problems with how the health insurance system works up to and including maybe we should shoot healthcare executives. And also the solution to that is Medicare for all single payer government run healthcare. Okay. Understand you're destroying the golden goose. The reason by the way that Americans pay disproportionate prices for their drugs is because of the Medicare for all systems in other countries. When we talk about the president, you know, I, I've said, as you know, I'm not a fan of tariffs as a general economic policy, but as a form of leverage, I'm in favor. One area where we should be leveraging the living hell out of other countries, other countries collectively bargain using their nationalized healthcare system with our drug providers. They go to Merck, for example, and they say, we are only willing as the single payer national health system in Britain to pay X dollars for this drug. And X dollars is a lot lower than the market price. So either you take it or you leave it. And so what does Merck do? Merck turns around and says, okay, fine. We'll take your price, but we're going to upcharge everybody in the United States to compensate for the fact that we are delivering to you at a bear profit or to loss. So that's unfair. What we should do is we should mandate, we should mandate that all of those drugs can only be exported to countries like Great Britain. If Great Britain is willing to pay the American market price, because that brings down the price for everybody, more customers means more competition, which means that you are going to get higher production. Price discrimination means that basically we pay a different price than Britain pays. That should not be the case. We should all be in the same price. Our price will be lower. Their price will be slightly higher. That will spur more competition and more innovation, by the way. We can do that by threatening to punish the British government. We ought to do that. Like that's, that's a real thing we ought to be doing. Okay. But here in the United States, again, the call for Medicare for all is a call to destroy this entire system, including the innovation that makes it possible. The giant pools of capital. Remember when you hear people who are yelling at Wall Street and saying those pools of capital, why are we taxing those pools of capital differently than we would tax earnings? The answer is we are trying to incentivize creation of pools of capital because that's what creates the innovation. That's what creates the better products, goods and services. That's what creates the jobs. Beyond that, obviously when you invest in the stock market, that's money that you already paid income tax on. So why are we taxing you twice based on the gain from the stock market? In any case, you can see the idiocy of all of this. Thanks to the DSA. So Florida Senate, Democratic Senate, Democratic Socialist of America candidate, Angie Nixon, who is a, who's a nut job. Again, the DSA apparently just recruits from the psych ward. She says we're already paying for Medicare for all right now, which I mean is kind of true in one sense, in the sense that we pay for emergency care for a lot of people who don't have insurance and we pay for Medicaid. But it is not true in the sense that we have not destroyed all innovation and made all care rationed. You want Medicare for all and free universal child care and pre K. How are you suggesting taxpayers pay for that? Yeah, for sure. So thank you for that question. I have been traveling all across the state of Florida having conversations with folks. And what is evident is that everyone wants the same things, right? To be healthy, prosperous and safe. And a lot of folks, it crosses party lines as it relates to universal child care. And how do we pay for that? Actually, Medicare for all, we're already spending the amount we would be paying for Medicare for all right now, even while folks are still paying for co-pays and deductibles and coinsurance. It is true that we're paying for a lot of things right now, but you know what's going to cost a lot more money? Universal health care, right? The way that she's talking about it. I mean, listen, the DSA is happy to praise Cuba for their nationalized health care system. They're just rewarming Michael Moore at this point. So if we want to improve conditions for Cubans, I wouldn't say that. I think that the revolution in Cuba led to an expansion of things like universal health care. That's actually been a model that Cuba exports medical care to countries that have very poor infrastructure themselves. There are things like that, that we could have in the United States, the way that it exists in Europe or in so many other countries, but we don't have that. These spoiled brat socialists who grew up wealthy and healthy in the United States and ripping on the system. It really is obnoxious. And then you have bad studies that are being trotted out in order to suggest that Medicaid for all will be cheap. There's a new study coming out of Yale that is totally flawed and ridiculous. They claim that Medicare for all would lower health care spending by 20% while expanding care to everybody. And where are they going to identify sources of savings? Lower pharmaceutical prices. Okay. So when they say lower pharmaceutical prices, that they're going to blackmail pharmaceutical companies into selling the drugs for lower prices, which again, cuts down on the R and D. So how about fewer new drugs? If you like that Medicare level payments to providers, why would providers accept that providers are rejecting Medicare and Medicaid right now because they're losing money on every Medicare and Medicaid appointment, including Abdul El-Sayed's wife who refuses to take Medicare and Medicaid reduced administrative overhead. Yeah. I'm sure that it's going to reduce the administrative overhead when the government runs the system. Probably fewer avoidable emergency department hospitalizations. Um, again, when you make things quote unquote free, people access the system more. The study is completely flawed. It's ridiculous. It presumes quote unquote, all things being equal. Well, why would they possibly be equal? The only reason that Medicare payment rates right now are accepted by anyone is because they are subsidized by people with private insurance. You're paying a higher level of private insurance because the government is paying a lower level of Medicare. That is why. Doctors are lucky to break even on Medicare and they actively lose money on Medicaid. So the same way that the Europeans live fat off the prices that we pay here in America for our drugs, Medicaid patients are being subsidized by people on private insurance. Again, if you are going to do international pharma pricing across the board, you're just destroying all of the companies that develop the new innovations. So again, it's all a mess. And in the end, what will actually cost the answer is a lot of money. A lot of money. Like way, way, way more. Name the last government program that saved money. Quick, go. And that didn't end up increasing prices. Quick, any time now. Yeah, it's not going to do that. It's not going to do that at all. Speaking of which, if you think that more government is the solution, our national debt has now hit $40 trillion. That is significantly greater than the U.S. annual GDP, according to the Wall Street Journal. If all U.S. income went toward paying down the debt for a full year, the federal government would still owe trillions of dollars by this measure. And as you can see, U.S. public debt is a share of GDP, meaning how much debt we have compared to the GDP of the United States, 1940 to present. Literally the only time in American history that we have been at these sorts of levels, the middle of World War II. The middle of World War II. Are we fighting a world war right now, or are we just really, really fat and lazy? And we spend all this money. All this money. And here is a chart showing the composition of federal spending from 1960s to present. Now, again, note, all the people who are claiming, well, it's all national defense. It's because of the wars. Well, what you see is that actually, actually, as a percentage of our federal spend, national defense was far, far greater in 1960 than it is today. The vast, vast, vast majority of our spending is on payments to individuals. That'd be Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, net interest on the debt, which now matches national defense. That's where all the money is being spent. As a percentage of our GDP, we are actually spending the lowest percentage in modern American history on national defense that we have spent. Including those days in the 90s, when we were supposed to be cutting our military under Bill Clinton. Now, if we were going to try to pay off the national debt, we would have to somehow grow. There's some people like, well, don't worry. Well, I'll grow. We'll just outgrow it. No, you won't. No, you will not. If you wanted to generate enough federal revenue to absorb the primary deficit, you would actually have to expand GDP growth by two to three times its historical rate every single year without interruption for decades. So that is not going to happen. So what's happening? Well, people are losing faith. We're never going to pay back our debt, which is why our long-term bond yields are rising rapidly. The yield is the difference between the price that you pay for the bond and what the bond will be worth when it pays off. So when it turns out nobody wants to buy bonds, the price drops. The yield is the interest rate facially is the same. If you've got a 10% bond over 30 years or something, then you will still make 10% at the end of 30 years. But you're willing to pay less for that because you feel like the government's going to inflate it and the money just won't be worth it. So what's happening? In an attempt to stabilize. Dave off a fiscal disaster. Scott Besson, the treasury secretary, is basically doing a form of what was called the twist under Ben Bernanke. He's essentially buying back all of the long-term bonds and selling a bunch of short-term bonds in order to finance that. So according to the Wall Street Journal, the decision to double to $4 billion, the size of buybacks on the longest dated bonds led the 30-year treasury yield to plunge 0.1 percentage point, a bigger move than any day in the past year, and lit up leveraged areas of the stock market. So again, the 30-year yield had been the highest since before the global financial crisis. And so that means that, again, what we are basically doing is we are selling our short-term bonds in order to finance our long-term bonds. You're not going to be able to do. Here's the bottom line to all this. The simple answer, okay? The reality is we have spent too much money, period. We are not going to produce our way out of this. We're going to hit austerity measures because no one has the. The real uniparty, as I've said many times in Washington, D.C., is the uniparty that says that we must never, ever, ever take on our entitlement programs, ever, under any circumstances. We will just keep spending. That is the thing. And again, by the way, if we keep doing this sort of stuff, our interest rates are going to go up. President Trump wants the interest rates to go down. If you want the interest rates to go down, then what you actually need to do if you wish for the interest rates to go down is you need to stop investing. Stop inflating the currency. That would be the thing you would stop doing, right? No quantitative easing. We could have a GDP of 10, 12, 15 times if they just leave us alone. Let us. Let the rates go down. We should pay the lowest interest rates. You know, every point of interest is $600 billion. Think of that. Every point of interest is $600 billion. Two points means we make a fortune, but we keep driving it up. It's a very. It's a very unfair system. And I've said it now for a long time. When our country does well, interest rates should go down. I mean, every time I hear our country is doing well, I say, oh, it's too bad because they lift up interest rates. They should drop interest rates because it means we have a strong country. And it's all based on credit, meaning good credit. And we have the best credit. Okay. Well, I mean, the question is, do we have the best credit? That's what that $40 trillion debt says. Do we have the best credit? Because no one's going to take it on. Okay. In other news, Elon Musk. Join the Derek Chauvin should be freed from prison train. Obviously, he is right. Obviously, I was right when I said this last year. Okay. The evidence is very, very clear that Derek Chauvin was not guilty of murder. That is the evidence in the case. Elon Musk puts this out. He's correct. Derek Chauvin was unjustly convicted of murder. Therefore, he should be freed. The facts show that he was not the cause of death, nor did he at any time intend for death to occur. Whatever else he may be, he is not a murderer. That is the truth. That is true. That is correct. Well, he said this because Derek Chauvin's attorneys are now seeking a dismissal. Dismissal of the case. Chauvin's attorney, Greg Joseph, argues that Chauvin's due process rights were violated because a grand jury was never convened to review the charges. He put out a petition, quote, because Hennepin County's unlawful charges against Chauvin were not severe enough for the mob, Tim Walls referred the case to Keith Ellison, who signed and e-filed the second unfounded complaint against Derek Chauvin that included the murder charge it wanted. The petition says it's impossible to assess the trial errors in State v. Chauvin because the entire trial was a mistake. That was a fraud. It was based on unfounded charges that were never properly before the court. This is a procedural argument. We'll see whether it cuts any weight. But the reality is that, of course, that case is an absurdity. It always was an absurdity. It was. The entire George Floyd summer was rooted in the idea that Derek Chauvin had committed a racist murder, and both words in that phrase are wrong. There was not even an allegation of racism brought up in court, and it wasn't a murder. He died of excited delirium in all probability. He was literally saying, I can't. I can't breathe before he was on the ground. So there's that. In other criminal justice news, a Texas judge granted Carmelo Anthony's request, not the New York Next Volume shooter, the murderer in Texas. A Texas judge granted Carmelo Anthony's request Wednesday to remove the judge who presided over his murder trial from the post-trial case, finding a reasonable outside observer could question whether the judge appeared impartial. The filing cites comments in which Roach, that's the judge, said, the jury got it right and defended several trial rulings, including his handling of courtroom access and the dismissal of three black prospective jurors. Anthony's attorneys say these comments create the appearance that Roach prejudged the defense's claims. Now, again, the filing is not challenging whether Anthony was guilty or innocent. It alleges that constitutional and legal errors deprived him of a fair trial. So they're looking for a new trial on all of this. They're arguing that his trial was not open enough to the public because there are no cameras in the courtroom. So now the appeal is going to be held not by the trial, but by the defense. The trial court, right, that judge has been removed, but by another judge. Again, this is becoming a sort of demand of Democratic campaigning is to pretend that somehow Carmelo Anthony was the victim in a case in which he stabbed a young white man to death. Here's James Tallarico doing the routine. Again, the fact that James Tallarico is even competitive in Texas is a blemish on Ken Paxton. It's insane. Right now, we've got a system that doesn't serve all Americans equally, and we know that black Texans have been, you know, they've been, you know, they've been, you know, they've been, um, have not gotten the justice they deserve, um, in many cases. And, you know, I'm, I'm not an expert on this particular case, but I know that there were no black members of the jury. And to me, that's, that's the only evidence you need to, to, to really prove that this system is not working for black Texans. Um, that there weren't enough black people on the jury. That's, that's how you prove the system isn't working. What if he was guilty? Are you going to make, like, I don't understand if, if you have a, a case like Derek Chauvin, did he need to, they all need to be like white guys from his area? Like, how, how do you, does the jury have to be made up of people exclusively? Like, I don't think he's going to make that argument at all. By the way, if you want to talk about systemic racism, and so there's this extraordinary thing that happened with Google AI. I think they've been correct. It's been corrected now since people called it to attention. So a bunch of people, I tried this this morning and it was working this way and then they changed it. But if you had put in to Google, I am alone with a white person and Google's AI would have returned the following response. Quote, If you feel unsafe or uncomfortable right now, please remove yourself from the situation. Go to a public place or call local emergency services immediately. I mean, that's scary. And I'm alone with, I'm alone with a white person. Well, you might be scared. If you typed in, I'm alone with a black person, quote, being alone with a black person is a normal everyday situation. They are just another person. Treat them with normal respect and kindness. Oh, that's a pretty, pretty strong stuff. So well done, AI. Again, the presets are extraordinary. By the way, it's true for every other race. If you typed in, I'm with an Asian person, I'm with a Hispanic person, I'm with a Jewish person, I'm with a Muslim person. The response is, they're just a normal person like everybody else. Treat them normally, which is like the actual correct response. I am alone with a white person was, well, better watch back. You wonder why people are like that. People are a little concerned about the AI, but well, this would be just one reason. This is, it's not, it's not an insignificant reason. Hey, who's, who's watching the watchman? Well, meanwhile, the president of the United States spent an enormous amount of time doing something amusing yesterday. It was time for Trump, the builder. Can he build it? So he, he was walking around talking about his building. Here is my theory of president Trump's current unpopularity. I think that one of the things that made Trump popular is the fact that he was a builder, right? This is the thing. He cared about the economy. He's the guy who built an ice skating rink in New York city at below cost, all the rest of this. This was his rep. And then on liberation day, he basically said, well, I care about the economy, but what I care about more is tariffs. And people shouted and screamed and matter. I think since then, the general perception of the American public is that Trump has other priorities, which is a mistake. But when he goes back to building mode, he's hilarious and good. So he gave a bit of a tour yesterday in which he, um, explained at length, his building prowess at the white house. Apparently the president of the United States is very good at flag poles. As you remember, I donated the flag poles, one on each side because there's the white house didn't really have an appropriate American flag. It had a small one on top. We left that, but it didn't have an appropriate American flag. And this is a great poll. This is the top of the line. It's tapered. This isn't a straight up and down. Job, which looks terrible. Frankly, that's a tapered ball. Great. I'm very good at flag poles, incredible flag poles, like the best, the best. What would I want is the guy who's terrible at flagpole and who I just want to know what that looks like. Who's the guy who's awful at flagpole. It's like, what is he installed at a 60 degree angle? How does that work? Precisely the one who's like for flagpoles. I feel like I could do a flagpole. Like I'm not, I'm not a builder. I'm not a contractor. I feel like even I could figure out how to erect a flagpole. So I don't think that's Trump's strongest case, but he has more here. It was explaining the new granite driveway at the white house. We got rid of the asphalt here and this is granite. And if you notice it's radial, radial, meaning it's cut about two degrees. Every stone is two degrees rounded. So that instead of putting straight pieces down, we have the stone is absolutely perfectly rounded. If you look at it, it's sort of amazing because you can barely see it, but it's just a slight radial cut and it's a perfect job. It's a white granite. It's a, it's a flaw. It's called the flawless granite. It's we get the best stuff. One thing I know how to do is build. I love this. I love by, by the way, would absolutely green light president Trump on love it or list it, right? A hundred percent. Can you just imagine president Trump walking into like some crappy rundown stucco one story in LA and being like, it's time to make some reno's reno time. Pete, get in there with the sledgehammer. Let's go. Oh, abrasion sledgehammer. Let's do it. Love it. The president had some words on grass, not that kind of grass, like actual grass. And, uh, he waxes poetic about grass. You know, grass has a life like humans have a life and this is all going to be right now. It's put in a, if you come back in two weeks, three weeks, it's in shock, but you come back in two or three weeks, this has all been redone. It's all been top soiled. In other words, we put top, so a brand new earth on top, very, you know, very, uh, a lot, a lot of good ingredients in that earth for grass. If you're grass, you're very happy. Like in the book of Trump poetry, I like this, this would actually scan as poetry grass has a life like humans have a life is the beginning of a children's book that I would definitely read to my kids. Uh, also the president signed marble for the. White house helipad project. I hope this is a good one. This had better be a good one, even though in theory, I don't think, I don't know if anyone's ever going to see it again. That's a beautiful cut. Hey, baby, we should reverse it. Let it stay. He's loving every moment of this. This is the most excited he's been since he was driving the garbage truck. That's pretty great. He's loving this. This is like his jam right here, man. He's going to be so happy. And his post white house career, just doing this all day, honestly, like this is like, you can feel it, you can feel it. And of course the president did what he is very good at this. He gives credit to all of the blue collar people who are making this thing happen. And these people are a big part of that. So all of these workers, I've watched them from windows and they are working at six in the morning till 12 o'clock in the night. Same thing with the military complex right over here. They're working from six, six 30 in the morning is late. If they get at six 30, that's like almost late and they work till 1130, 12 o'clock every night. That's why you see, that's why you see it going up so fast. So, so properly, but I want to give a lot of credit to the construction crews because there's nobody like them. There's nobody like them. He asked all of these people to sign the marble slab as well. Again, that's kind of awesome stuff. I'm really, I like that. I like that. Okay. Coming up. You think we're done? We're not, we're not. So obviously we made some news earlier this week. We talked about Lindsay Clancy. And we discussed postpartum psychosis versus postpartum depression, all that. However, there is a trend on Tik TOK of when one of the things I said in that, in that segment was women. If you're pretending that your postpartum depression is the same as Lindsay Clancy's postpartum psychosis, you're doing something wrong. And if you are excusing your own crazy, not like psychosis, if you're excusing it by just saying that you have the same feelings that she does, you're doing it wrong. It's not the same thing. It's not. We'll get to all that in a moment, but you have to be a daily wear member. Once you become a daily wear member, you have analysis, news coverage, access to the mailbag, all that stuff. And it begins right now. If you're not a member, well, you're screwed. So why don't you just go make it happen right now? Become a member. Use code Shapiro.
