  My handshake is better than anything I ever signed, right here. You are a one of one. My son's right there. I don't think I've ever said this before.

• 0:27Patrick Bet-David?

  We got the special John Morgan in the house, Pacada. John, how are you?

• 0:31Adam Sosnick?

  Good to be back.

• 0:32Patrick Bet-David?

  Great to have you back on. We have his new book that just came out, Life is Luck.

• 0:36Adam Sosnick?

  Right.

• 0:36Patrick Bet-David?

  You haven't ordered it yet, put the link below. We're gonna learn a lot about John. We got a lot of stories to talk about. Gas prices, Tom, oil prices, what, right now?

• 0:44Adam Sosnick?

  Uh, 76.

• 0:46Patrick Bet-David?

  Down to 76, which is good. The Iran deal, signed June 14th. Somebody hinted it was gonna be on June 14th.

• 0:52Adam Sosnick?

  I know that guy.

• 0:53Patrick Bet-David?

  And so that's done. New York Times comes out with a second edition of the Epstein story, which we'll get into. Gavin Newsom's wife, Vinnie Jennifer, I think, was tied into something. Newsom is saying he's coming after me. I wanna know what John, you think about that? We'll get into that as well. The president said Israel wouldn't exist without the US. Mike Huckabee comes back and says US wouldn't exist without Israel. Thoughts on that? Pride night, Vinnie's been celebrating for the entire month. He's kinda disappointed the month's coming to an end.

• 1:18Adam Sosnick?

  Yes.

• 1:18Patrick Bet-David?

  But MLB, MLB has said that you can't even put certain scripture on your hat right now, so... I know you're not too happy about that. Those who follow Messi, he had a hat trick yesterday.

• 1:29Adam Sosnick?

  Incredible.

• 1:30Patrick Bet-David?

  First time ever. He had a hat trick in the World Cup.

• 1:32Adam Sosnick?

  Against Zidane's son.

• 1:34Patrick Bet-David?

  Broke a bunch of records, himself against Zidane's son as the goalie of Algeria. Mbappe had two goals. I think Haaland had two goals. He crushed for Norway, looked very good. And then aside from that, a couple other stories that we gotta get into as well is... You know how Chick-fil-A was always known for the best, you know, you work there, they give you the best customer service? It's no longer Chick-fil-A. Somebody took over Chick-fil-A. They're furious. They're so furious, they're thinking about opening back up on Sundays.

• 1:58Adam Sosnick?

  What?

• 1:58Patrick Bet-David?

  Cause you know they're always closed on Sunday. I don't think they're gonna do it, that's my speculation. But somebody took over and the first name of that restaurant starts with Jersey. And the last one is a guy named Mike. To combine it together, let's see if you agree with that or not. SpaceX, Michael Burry wants to, uh, short SpaceX, although the stock's been going up. Left and right, and last but not least, finally, finally, Russell Crowe comes out and makes comments about Gladiator 2. I don't know if you had a chance to watch Gladiator 2 or not. He had different thoughts, we gotta talk about it. I'm a big Gladiator guy, I'm not too happy about what they did with this one. And aside from that, we may have a couple other stories. Now, for those guys that are watching, for the great fathers, your boxes are coming to you

• 2:41Patrick Bet-David?

  this week. I can't wait for you guys to... We sold out, 500 boxes went out, so someone's getting it. Very happy about that. However, I'm hosting a free webinar specifically for those who are fathers, and I want you to watch this video to find out when the dates are. Go ahead, Jake.

• 2:59Patrick Bet-David?

  Can't hear the audio, guys. We can't hear it.

• 3:04Patrick Bet-David?

  Can you go back to the video and put the audio?

• 3:08Patrick Bet-David?

  I'm gonna set that up.

• 3:14Patrick Bet-David?

  We are standing by, buddy. We're ready. We're not going anywhere.

• 3:17Adam Sosnick?

  We're here.

• 3:21Patrick Bet-David?

  You gonna go back and start from the beginning?

• 3:26Patrick Bet-David?

  Most powerful quotes. Do it again. You might wanna set it up, Pat. Fathers, one of the... Alright, let me just do it from the beginning. Guys, hang on a second. If you are a father, and you wanna find out how to raise strong kids in this crazy time that we're living in, I'm hosting a free webinar. Again, watch this video. Go for it.

• 3:44Patrick Bet-David?

  Fathers, one of the most powerful quotes I ever heard was the following: "Your ceiling is your kid's floor." Let me say it one more time. "Your ceiling is your kid's floor." The more we raise the standards on the way we lead, on the way we live, on the way we make money, on the way we take care of our kids, that becomes the floor for them to go above it. So if you're watching this, I know deep down inside, we all wanna be great fathers. Legacy matters to you. You wanna raise them well. You wanna look at them, do great things bigger than you and I did in our lives, right? If that's important to you, because I know it is, July 1st, 6 PM Eastern Standard Time, I'm doing a free webinar to share with you what's worked for me and what hasn't. If you wanna be a part of it, click on the link above or below, register. I look forward to seeing you there.

• 4:28Patrick Bet-David?

  Do we know what website it is to go register for, Humberto? Do we know the site on where to go to? We're gonna put the link below or above. Is there a site? Because there's a site that we typically use. What is the site?

• 4:42Patrick Bet-David?

  What's the site, the domain? Alicia doesn't have it written here. If we have the domain to give it out, that'd be great.

• 4:49Tom Ellsworth?

  Can I give a little respect to whoever put this thing together?

• 4:52Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, listen, I can't wait for it.

• 4:53Tom Ellsworth?

  Looks great.

• 4:54Patrick Bet-David?

  I can't wait for it, but there's a site that we drive it to, Humberton? Can't hear you guys. VTwebinar.com. So typically when we do this kind of stuff for the team in the back, for the Spotify guys, it's good to give the domain as well. Go to VTwebinar.com to register. Go to VTwebinar.com to register. Everybody at the end will get the notes to be given. 10 conversations you should have with your sons, a bunch of different things, six different types of fathers. If you haven't registered for it, go to VTwebinar.com. Register. We look forward to seeing you there. With that being said, let's get right into it. The first topic I want to talk about is the Iran deal. So Tom, your first reaction, we're in DC, we're at the White House event, we're having an incredible time.

• 5:39Patrick Bet-David?

  Jets are flying over, right? All this crazy shit's going down with the Jets flying over. The fight to Poria. Nobody thought to Poria was gonna lose to Justin Gagey. You have all this other stuff with Gania takes out the giant, right? What's his name? What's the guy that he beat? Pereira, right? All this stuff that is taking place. But then on that day, on his birthday, he does the Iran deal. Initial reaction to Tom, what are your thoughts?

• 6:06Tom Ellsworth?

  Well, the initial reaction was, wow, what are the points? What are the points there? Are they gonna give up the uranium? That was one of the reasons we were there, you know, bombing and trying to bring them to their knees. When is the oil gonna be released? But what was really amazing was that they got to a milestone, and I'm thinking, okay, are we gonna go back? Are we just gonna find out tomorrow, whoop, they didn't do it, now we're bombing again? Whoop, they didn't do it, we're bombing again? But then we see things from, what was it, Pat? The Pakistani Istanbul? The Pakistanis are saying, no, this is real. We helped with some of the intermediation. No, this is real. And started hearing it was real. So the first reaction was, wow, thank goodness, this is coming to an end. Now where's the fine print? Do we get what we want? Do we get there?

• 6:51Tom Ellsworth?

  Reaction that I was having at that time to the initial headlines was, hey, this looks real. This looks like it's happening. So felt good about that. The 14 points come out and there was a lot of diplomatic stuff in them and it's like 60 days. It's just a memo of understanding. We're like, uh oh, is this like a ceasefire that could go sideways? But they got it done on the 14th. And the key things that were in there was the strait's going to be open, oil's going to get through. Within 30 days, one of the points in the 14 points that was released by Reuters today was that within 30 days, the number of tankers and the millions of barrels of oil per day needs to be at the level it was back on February

• 7:34Tom Ellsworth?

  20th before the war started. We want to get back there. So 30 days, we want to get back to the February 20th, open, lots of ships going back and forth. There was that. And then it was this weird point that said, we want the status quo on the uranium, and then we'll negotiate over the next 60 days. So that one was, I wanted to see something more definitive, but the point today simply says there will be status quo on where uranium is. So I'm optimistic at this time. The markets are reacting well. I'm glad we're here. I'm crossing my fingers. This isn't a ceasefire, that at the end of these 60 days, we have a hard agreement and we have things moving forward. And I was very glad to see Lebanon's part of it.

• 8:16Patrick Bet-David?

  Adam.

• 8:17Adam Sosnick?

  Look, a good friend of mine called it, June 14th. I don't know if we want to play that or anything like that, but I have a good friend of mine who I doubted maybe 2%. I was like, I don't know, Pat.

• 8:28Patrick Bet-David?

  2%? It was not 2% buddy. You were like, it's gonna take, you know, I'm not really in a hurry. How long it's gonna take? The deal's gonna take to the end of your-

• 8:37Adam Sosnick?

  We have the great John Morgan here.

• 8:38Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah. Don't say 2%.

• 8:40Tom Ellsworth?

  Come on.

• 8:41Adam Sosnick?

  I believed in it, but I doubted it. But here's the-

• 8:43Patrick Bet-David?

  I'm with you.

• 8:44Adam Sosnick?

  Here's the dirty little secret.

• 8:47Adam Sosnick?

  Here's the deal. Trump is the greatest showman and marketer we've ever seen, maybe in America, certainly as the president.

• 8:56Adam Sosnick?

  He's working on this big deal. He's not letting anything, friends, allies, enemies, get in the way of on his birthday, UFC 250, "We got a deal." Here's the dirty little secret. They don't really have a deal. They have a memorandum of understanding. And what are the chances there's going to be a little misunderstanding in the next 60 days? I think there will be. This isn't really a peace deal. So you know how we always say, "Short-term pain for the long-term gain." This deal is kind of like, "Short-term gain for long-term pain." Because in my prediction, Trump is basically saying, "Listen, we gotta get stuff done before

• 9:39Adam Sosnick?

  Labor Day," right? Because that's basically when election season kicks off. So let me just smooth this over for 60 days. And honestly, I could see Trump flipping this, winning the midterms. And you know what might happen after the midterms? Don't tell Iran. We might bomb them again. Because what's the chances you trust Iran and the IRGC? And I'll just end with this. There's some winners and losers of this potential deal. Number one, it's Trump, big winner here, right? The IRGC, big winner here. If they can stay in power, are you kidding me?

• 10:10Adam Sosnick?

  Big loser here, unfortunately, will be the Iranian people. Whatever way you cut it, they will not be free. We'll see what ends up happening in the deal. There's a lot of people complaining. I'm grateful, no matter what, that Trump is the president and nobody else.

• 10:23Patrick Bet-David?

  Let me come to you, Vinny, but before I do, let me kind of give you an idea what these 14 points they're talking about. Immediate ceasefire of hostilities. Number two, end of fighting in Lebanon involving Iran-backed groups. Reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, free commercial shipping through Hormuz. U.S. Navy blockade on Iranian ports lifted. No new U.S. sanctions during negotiations. Waivers allowing Iranian oil exports. Release of frozen Iranian assets, roughly $24 to $25 billion. Roadmap to lift U.S. and possibly U.N. sanctions. Iran pledges not to build nuclear weapons. Iran freezes expansion of enrichment of nuclear facilities. Sixty day negotiation period for a final nuclear agreement. U.S. backed reconstruction development fund for Iran.

• 11:07Patrick Bet-David?

  Reports range three hundred billion dollars. Discussion of broader regional security arrangements and troop reductions withdrawal. If a final agreement is reached. Vinnie.

• 11:17Speaker 04

  Um, well, Adam, Adam's less, not I want to say less optimistic. I'm a little bit more optimistic. I mean, like you said, Adam, birth, birth, think about it. Eighty years old, eighty years old birthday. UFC fight on the freaking, on the people's lawn. Is that, am I right, Tom? He called it the people's lawn. He didn't call it.

• 11:34Tom Ellsworth?

  At some point, he reminded everybody that the White House is the people's.

• 11:37Speaker 04

  Yeah, and, and our good friend, Patrick McDavid, said it was going to be done by his birthday. I'm more optimistic because, bro, and I said this yesterday, that America is back. He's right now, and by the way, when it was all over, he got in a plane at three o'clock in the morning and flew to Canada for a G seven summit.

• 11:52Tom Ellsworth?

  No, France, France.

• 11:53Speaker 04

  Oh, France, and then he walked.

• 11:54Tom Ellsworth?

  Canada would have been an hour flight. Flew. They got drive to McDonald's and, and Canada on the way.

• 11:58Speaker 04

  Canada on the way there. And then he walks in and what, what does he say when he gets to that round table? He goes, I'm the boss. Because he is, okay? It's been a couple of days, there is no bombing, everybody's, everybody's calmed down. But, I mean, just, just, just give him, I'm, I'm more optimistic, Adam, because this guy, and a lot of people are like, he's not calling the shots. He's controlled. Let me explain something to you. He has people in his ear. I think people are trying to persuade him. At the end of the day, nobody tells President Trump what to do. He calls the shots at the end of the day, and I don't care which way you try to sway. By the way, Pat makes all the decisions. You don't think I, I give Pat some advice? I go, Pat, maybe this. You give him, Adam, different advice. Tom gives him different advice. Right now, if he asks him about a topic, Mr. Morgan's going to give him different advice.

• 12:42Speaker 04

  At the end of the day, he's making all the decisions and he's calling the shots. And I think that's what Trump is doing. Period.

• 12:47Tom Ellsworth?

  Adam said something, he said, hey, you know, they don't have a deal. And only thing I like to say is, the U.S. says that they've got a deal. Iran even said they have a deal. How many times do we have the ceasefire and Iran said, I didn't really agree to anything. I really haven't agreed to anything. That's not happening now. Both sides are saying, yep, this is our MOU. We're going to sign it this week. Pakistanis are saying, yep, I'm in the middle of this too. That's the first time everybody's been around the table all saying, you know, I, I think we have something of an agreement here.

• 13:13Patrick Bet-David?

  Great. John, your thoughts on this? Are you optimistic? You think something good is happening?

• 13:18Tom Ellsworth?

  Here's what I think.

• 13:21Speaker 05

  And it's gonna be a different take than everybody else's when you said he's 80 years old. Look, he became president talking about no more wars. You know, he blasted no more wars. But he got here and he's 80 years old. And he's looking to the future. The future to him is like mine, shorter than your future and your future just by age. But yet, he's made a decision to do this. He's, this whole thing is driven by nuclear holocaust from Iran. He could have kicked the can, but he didn't. He decided to do this. And when he

• 14:01Speaker 05

  did it, he knew what was gonna happen. He knew that gas prices would go up. He knew affordability was the issue he got elected on. He knew that was the issue that would drive his poll numbers down. And guess what? His poll numbers have been driven down as a result of this. But here's where I think that Trump's gonna be rewarded. When he said he doesn't care about the midterms, he does, very much. That's why they're trying to change districts all over the country. When he says he doesn't care about inflation, he does. But it turns out that this guy would rather leave us, the world, not us, the world, in

• 14:44Speaker 05

  a safer position because nuclear weapons in the hands of those maniacs is the most dangerous thing facing us and our children. And Israel's not happy about it because I don't know if the uranium's ever gonna be taken, the dust, or whatever they call it. But I think the secret message, and if I was the Trump, if I was Susie Wiles and James Blair, what I'd be talking about is he's putting his own personal popularity.

• 15:12Speaker 05

  Over his present popularity for the rest of us. And a nuclear Iran is a danger to the world, the most dangerous in the whole world. Because they think that when they die, they go to seven black eyed virgins. So they're okay with nuclear holocaust, you know?

• 15:33Patrick Bet-David?

  Seven, seven black guy virgins?

• 15:35Speaker 05

  Black eyed.

• 15:36Patrick Bet-David?

  Oh, black eyed. Seventy-two black.

• 15:38Speaker 05

  Seventy-two black.

• 15:39Patrick Bet-David?

  You were gonna say seven black guy virgins. That's like a, that's very rare.

• 15:45Speaker 05

  That's an oxymoron.

• 15:48Tom Ellsworth?

  And where the hell would you find that?

• 15:50Speaker 05

  That's an oxymoron. But yeah, so I think, I think, and look, and by the way, while he's at it, he's jerking Hugo, or he's jerking the Venezuelan guy out of his bed. He's got the castros under the couch. He is doing some serious, serious house cleaning for the world on his 80th birthday. And, and I think that's gonna be a secret story that'll be told later to his, to his benefit.

• 16:20Adam Sosnick?

  Can I add one thing?

• 16:21Speaker 05

  Sure.

• 16:21Adam Sosnick?

  Not even about Iran, about what he's doing for the world. I found it a little ironic because he flew out to the G7. And to see the leaders of the world, Macron, Italy, Keir Starmer, Georgia Maloney, all these people, line up like schoolchildren to take pictures with the guy that's in charge of the world. And here's what I know. Trump's the leader of the free world. He knows it, and more importantly, they know it. So the message for all the Democrats out there, for the people who hate Trump, world leaders are lining up in line like it's seeing Michael Jordan to take a selfie. So if the world leaders are getting behind Trump saying this guy's in charge of the free world, maybe you should consider what they're doing. I just want to add that because he's in charge.

• 17:04Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, and by the way, while this is happening, is, Humerto, is this the clip you guys got here? Let's play the clip. Everybody kept saying, why are you June 14th, June 14th, June 14th? Go ahead and play this clip here, go forward.

• 17:17Speaker 04

  By what date? Does it need to turn around before it's over for the midterms? What? Give me a date, Tom.

• 17:24Patrick Bet-David?

  Pre-World Cup.

• 17:25Speaker 05

  Pre-World Cup.

• 17:25Patrick Bet-David?

  My date for him is June 14th.

• 17:27Speaker 04

  Bingo.

• 17:27Patrick Bet-David?

  My date is June 14th.

• 17:29Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 17:29Patrick Bet-David?

  I've said it, June 14th is a June 13th, June 14th is a day to get it wrapped up. And you know what they said yesterday? It's as if they're watching a podcast. You know what they said yesterday? They said Trump's day to get this thing done is June 14th. A lot of people, if you go to Calci, oh, this thing's not gonna get done till next year. It's not gonna get done till September, it's not gonna get done till July. I said it's gonna get done before June 14th.

• 17:51Speaker 04

  What do you think our deadline is?

• 17:52Patrick Bet-David?

  June 14th is our deadline.

• 17:54Speaker 04

  Why is that specific number?

• 17:55Patrick Bet-David?

  World Cup starts, it's Trump's birthday. Everybody will forget about Iran come August, September, and will be moving on with interest rates going lower, gas prices going lower, economy coming back up. We're gonna be looking at World Cup, 4th of July celebration, 250 years. But US has a deadline. US's deadline is June 14th. Can you imagine this guy gets it done on his birthday? And he's going in there, FYI, UFC's going on, he's shaking hands, then he's flying to Paris to go meet with Macron. When he pulls up to the desk, I don't know if you guys have that clip, he pulls up there and says, hey, the boss is here, right? He's talking to Macron. Then there's conversations that, I don't know if you guys have that clip in the back of the boss is here. Conor Humberto, if you guys do, if you wanna pull that up. If not, he pulls up there, he has that meeting, he is talking to them, they're asking about Dana, says Dana's great.

• 18:40Patrick Bet-David?

  Dana's great, he put the UFC fight, yeah, this is the clip right here, watch this, folks. He pulls up telling everybody he's the boss. Hello, I'm the boss.

• 18:49Speaker 04

  Yes, he is. Was he like joking when he said that?

• 18:51Patrick Bet-David?

  Totally joking, but they know he's the boss.

• 18:53Speaker 04

  But he is, that's the whole point.

• 18:54Patrick Bet-David?

  Keir Starmer doesn't show up, Macron says, let's get started anyways without Keir Starmer. So, you gotta realize, at this point of the game, you can say whatever you want about him, he has gained credibility amongst who? His peers.

• 19:06Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 19:06Patrick Bet-David?

  His enemies. His allies. They're sitting there saying, damn it, this was a guy that we thought he was a TV show guy, but apparently, he is a lot more than that. And one of the conversations that was had, guys in the back, if you wanna prepare this, is when he said, you know, the reporter asked a question, what do you think about Israel? If they go out there and attack? And, and they hit another Hezbollah and, I wanna leave it to the Syrians. You realize if it wasn't for US, Israel wouldn't exist. That whole exchange, there's two clips.

• 19:37Patrick Bet-David?

  If you can find that clip and then after that clip, I want to go to my Huckabee because I want to get your thoughts on this. I love it when I see the president putting his position out there. Now, you got to keep in mind, these comments that he makes here, a lot of Iranians are not happy about this comment. And you see which one I'm talking about. There's a comment that he makes, guys, do you know which clip I'm talking about in the back, Connor and Humberto, if you guys are looking for it? There is a very, very interesting moment. This is it. I think this is it. Go forward.

• 20:06Speaker 06

  Israel is fighting Hezbollah too long and too many people are being killed. And you don't have to knock down an apartment house every time you're looking for somebody. Because there are a lot of people in those apartment houses, and they're not all Hezbollah, that I can tell you. And I suggested to Israel to let Syria take care of Hezbollah. Because to be honest with you, I think they'd do a better job of doing it. Is that job on board? And I didn't like Syria. I didn't like where, two hours before we're signing the agreement, that there was an attack in Lebanon, in Beirut. It wasn't like in the southern

• 20:47Speaker 06

  side, and you know, it was in Beirut. I did not like that. I let them know that.

• 20:52Patrick Bet-David?

  I love that he's saying this.

• 20:53Speaker 06

  I didn't like it, not at all. But I think that Syria, I mean, he's pulled that country together amazingly quickly. He's very capable. And he's been very good for me. He's protected everything that I've asked for. He's done. And

• 21:07Patrick Bet-David?

  You missed the one part I

• 21:08Speaker 06

  If Israel can't do the job without killing everyone else.

• 21:12Patrick Bet-David?

  There was, this wasn't the clip. There was another clip where he says Israel wouldn't exist without the US. And then Huckabee responds to, this is the clip I was looking for. Go forward.

• 21:21Speaker 06

  But you wouldn't have, if it weren't for the United States of America, with me, because Obama was the opposite, Israel would not exist right now. Israel would have been blown off the face of the earth, 100%. And every smart person in Israel knows that. Okay.

• 21:40Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, so then go to Huckabee's clip. Go to Huckabee's clip on what Huckabee says. Because Huckabee responds in a completely different one. By the way, first time I saw the Huckabee clip, you know what's the first thing I thought about? I said, "This has to be a year old. This has to be 18 months old. This can't be new. This cannot be a reaction to what the president said." Go for it.

• 21:59Speaker 04

  It's also my job to represent the importance of Israel to the United States. This is just another reminder that it is your heritage, without a doubt. But Minister, it is also the heritage of the United States. Without Israel, without the Jewish foundation, there would not be an America. We owe our very existence to what happened in this land.

• 22:30Patrick Bet-David?

  Tom, what problem do you have? Is there anything wrong with what he just said? Or is there an issue here?

• 22:34Tom Ellsworth?

  Well, you have to drive, dive down pretty deep. But I think Mike Huckabee did a very poor job communicating that. He should be talking about, listen, the pages of history, the hinge of history are very dating system. B.C., before Christ. A.D., after, after, after, after. Well, wait a minute, wait a minute. What he's saying is Israel was the, was the, where Western civilization starts after Israel falls, after Christ ascends, after then, you know, Catholicism emerges in, in Europe. Yeah, if you want to go back there, you know, you can do that. But what he's doing at a, you know, at a pro, is he, he said, "It is my job."

• 23:19Tom Ellsworth?

  I'd like to know who he's lobbying for. And I just think it was poorly stated. He can say, "Listen, Western civilization dates back to my heritage, Christ, and then Israel, and then all of the, you know, countries that were back in those days." He could say that. But when you say it that way, you're, you're making it sound like we're in post, post WWII, helping people get back over the right, the right boundaries of their country. I think it was poorly stated.

• 23:43Patrick Bet-David?

• 25:29Speaker 05

  Look, the deal for me with Israel is this. They were slaughtered. They were given a sliver of, really a bullshit piece of land. They turned it into this oasis. And now people want the oasis after they turned it into what they turned it into. And Iran wants to wipe them off the face of the earth. I mean, imagine living next door to neighbors who you could see in their house and they're moving around with weapons. And so it's self-preservation for, I don't, I don't get into all the biblical stuff. I get into, you know, Hitler, the relocation of the Jews, they set it up. And look, they

• 26:11Speaker 05

  had to fight because, you know, the, the war, whatever the war was in the sixties, I mean, people have been trying to take their land forever and ever and ever and ever. And what other options do they have? So Mike Huckabee with all that, you know, I agree with you going back to before Christ and all that is, I, I go from right after Hitler.

• 26:33Speaker 04

  Benny? I, I mean, Mike Huckabee, you know, what, what's his job? I don't know. He's the ambassador. And again, I, I agree with Tom. He's, he's in front of an audience. He's going old school, old school. We wouldn't be here because of Israel from the Bible. But I mean, you hear, like, where is he? Was he in Israel or was he here making that speech? Israel. Okay. So he's obviously pandering to the, to their crowd. That's what he's asked to do.

• 26:57Speaker 05

  No question.

• 26:58Adam Sosnick?

  Oh, me? Uh, look, uh, they're both right. Uh, this isn't a lowest common denominator. I mean, uh, America wouldn't exist without the biblical prophecy of essentially the Old Hebrews. When the pilgrims came to America, why would they call the pilgrims? Because they were making pilgrimage and they viewed their, they're leaving the Old World as an exodus to the New World where they set up, they set up Salem, you know, the Salem witch trials. Why was it called Salem? Like Jerusalem. So to try to separate the, the branch of Christianity, which led to America from the tree, I think is a, uh, fruitless endeavor. I think there's

• 27:37Adam Sosnick?

  a shared common values of the Judeo-Christian values of the Bible of Moses. I told you the story when I met with Mike Johnson and we looked in, in the House of Representatives and he said, listen, there's two things I want you to focus on in this entire room. In the entire room, he said, in God we trust and turn right around. There's Moses giving us the Ten Commandments. This doesn't have to be a bipartisan or lowest common denominator thing. They're shared values and they're both right. And by the way, Trump is absolutely right. Trump has reshaped Israel to be what they are today. And for anyone that is pro-Israel that is not grateful for Trump, shut up. You're not going to get what you want with everything.

• 28:18Adam Sosnick?

  By the way, that goes for the MAGA people who are basically like, I'm not a fan of Trump anymore because he attacked Iran. So you're going to leave the guy that got you to the dance because you don't agree with one thing? To the Trump haters and the Trump lovers, appreciate what we got and stop focusing on the negatives.

• 28:33Patrick Bet-David?

  Tom, you look like you want to react.

• 28:35Tom Ellsworth?

  Yeah, there's something else that was in what Trump said. I agreed. What Trump said was correct. If it wasn't for us, there wouldn't be Israel. But he, who did he call on and support when he was talking about the region? Syria. We have to remember what happened when Bashar al-Hadid fell. That was a full regime change and Ahmed al-Shara is the new leader of Syria. What did he do? He went out and said, we can't have this ISIS crap. I, we Syria hereby joins the anti ISIS coalition that first. Second, they went and they made peace with Turkey and Turkey committed to provide military support and defense to Syria.

• 29:14Tom Ellsworth?

  And then Syria joined with US and others saying, we are, we have to stop, you know, Iranian funding of Hezbollah. That's right across our border here in Lebanon. So Trump is also saying something that I think we need to back up and realize Syria has flipped. We're talking about regime change in the Middle East. Syria turned and is now in a position to do exactly what he talked about. So I think he was right on Israel, but also we should pay attention to what he said about Syria.

• 29:46Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah, I just have a response on the Syria thing. If there's one thing that I'm like, yeah, I don't know about that, President Trump. It's this whole breakdown of what he thinks Syria is. Syria is a fallen state that is being run by this guy Jalani, who's literally a former Al Qaeda terrorist. That's probably responsible for a lot of our allies and American deaths. Let's get real here. And the fact that Trump was like, listen, let's just have Syria take care of Lebanon. You know what? Go right ahead. Leave Israel out of it. What could go wrong when Sunni militants from Al Qaeda clash with Shiite militants from Hezbollah? What could go wrong? I don't know. A million people dead

• 30:28Adam Sosnick?

  from the Syrian civil war not too long ago? So I would pump the brakes on trusting in Al Qaeda terrorists to bring peace to the region.

• 30:36Speaker 05

  One thing you gotta remember, I think about Trump.

• 30:39Adam Sosnick?

  I'm saying that. I'm not saying you saying that. I'm saying that.

• 30:41Speaker 05

  About Trump is, I think one of his philosophies is, you should take care of yourself. I mean, he's, when he looked at NATO, he was like, you all need to do more to take care of yourself. Now, there's some risk in that because Germany becomes reconstituted, because they're not stupid people, but you should take care of yourself. He pulls the Venezuelan president out, he tells the woman, I can pull you out next unless you get in line. Guess what?

• 31:11Adam Sosnick?

  Chelsea Rodriguez.

• 31:13Speaker 05

  Yeah, she's in line. You guys are smart. You all know more than the national press.

• 31:18Adam Sosnick?

  We're in your world, sir.

• 31:19Speaker 05

  And so, you know, and his whole concept is, when he talks about America first, I think is, we'll take care of you if we have to, but generally speaking, you take care of yourself. And I think that's why he's saying to Syria, you take care of yourself. I'm never worried about Israel. Israel will always take care of themselves.

• 31:44Adam Sosnick?

  Can I give him credit? I think this deal is the most America first deal possible.

• 31:50Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 31:50Adam Sosnick?

  Why? Israel's a little upset. Bibi Netanyahu ain't happy.

• 31:54Speaker 05

  Right, right.

• 31:54Adam Sosnick?

  He wasn't even in negotiations.

• 31:55Speaker 05

  That's right.

• 31:56Adam Sosnick?

  The Iranian people aren't exactly thrilled to hear that the IRGC is going to stay in power. There's a lot of people that are unhappy. And you know who should be a little bit more happy and grateful? All the America first Trump haters who are criticizing him. He basically sold out Israel. And by the way, as a pro-Israel person, I'm not complaining because I'm more grateful for Trump than I am complaining about things that I'm disagreeing.

• 32:19Speaker 05

  This is what I love, because every...

• 32:21Patrick Bet-David?

  contradiction got exposed in that two minute clip. One, who does Huckabee work for?

• 32:28Adam Sosnick?

  United States.

• 32:29Patrick Bet-David?

  So what does he have to defend? United States. Why are you reacting to what the president said? I don't like that. By the way, if you worked for me, you did that, I wouldn't be happy about that.

• 32:38Adam Sosnick?

  I understand.

• 32:39Patrick Bet-David?

  I would say, what are you doing? What are you doing reacting to me in another country? I gave you the job. What are you doing reacting like that? You're not validating my point. You're undermining me. I'm not okay with that. I actually didn't like that and I'm a big fan of Huckabee. I think Huckabee is actually a good man. I didn't like what he did right there. So, uh, number two, a lot of Iranians are not happy. A lot of Iranians, uh, there was a clip with J D Vance, I believe was with Megyn Kelly. If you guys can find this, where J D Vance says, y- you think this was positioned up to put Reza Pahlavi? If you just type in J D Vance, Reza Pahlavi, Megyn Kelly on X, it'll come up. So a lot of Iranians are like, and by the way, to Iranians, I actually understand when they say, you said regime change. You said Iranian people stay out there. You said regime collapsed.

• 33:23Patrick Bet-David?

  You said IRG is gonna be gone. So he did say that. He did make that point. So the Iranians are like, what happened to it? But maybe because they didn't find a replacement. I- in the recording, when he says, I placed them there, when he said Syria.

• 33:38Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah.

• 33:38Patrick Bet-David?

  I placed them there. What does I placed them there mean?

• 33:41Adam Sosnick?

  Him and Erdogan kinda helped.

• 33:43Patrick Bet-David?

  But what is he saying? I placed them there.

• 33:44Adam Sosnick?

  I put them there. Okay. I'm in charge of it.

• 33:46Patrick Bet-David?

  So if he says, I placed them there, does that mean he has the ability to place people in places?

• 33:52Adam Sosnick?

  Yes, or remove them.

• 33:54Patrick Bet-David?

  Or remove them. But I placed them there is you can do it again with somebody else.

• 33:57Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah.

• 33:57Patrick Bet-David?

  But here's J D Vance on Megyn Kelly. Go forward.

• 34:00Speaker 06

  Of 95 million people wearing again.

• 34:03Patrick Bet-David?

  There's two clips playing in the background.

• 34:07Patrick Bet-David?

  Can you turn off the other clip on the background? This happens every once in a while. You got another clip that's playing, uh, another place in the background? Did you guys find it? Go for it.

• 34:17Speaker 06

  Of ninety five-

• 34:18Speaker 04

  I still hear of the president.

• 34:20Patrick Bet-David?

  So anyways, there's this clip that happens where he says, uh, JD Vance says, "You know, we could have easily like, you think the president was gonna place Reza Pahlavi there? Well, guess what? A lot of people thought he was. A lot of people thought this was gonna happen. I'll just play it off my phone so you guys can. Go for it.

• 34:37Speaker 04

  Of ninety-five million people, where again, the president of the United States never said that his goal was to install Reza Pahlavi to become the new leader of Iran.

• 34:49Patrick Bet-David?

  What he said is, "If the Iranian people wanna rise up, great.

• 34:52Speaker 04

  That's their business. That's between them and their government. What we want is a cessation of their nuclear program, either through diplomatic means or through military means, as he ultimately went down that pathway."

• 35:03Patrick Bet-David?

  So, great JD Vance, the great communicator, he can communicate this message to Megyn Kelly. If Trump really wanted to place Reza Pahlavi, could he have done it?

• 35:10Speaker 04

  If he wanted to.

• 35:12Patrick Bet-David?

  Why didn't he do it?

• 35:13Speaker 04

  He said he wasn't a strong leader. He saw through him and he was like-

• 35:16Patrick Bet-David?

  He said he was a nice guy.

• 35:17Speaker 04

  He said he was a nice guy and that was it.

• 35:18Patrick Bet-David?

  So now, the Iranian people are furious because that didn't happen. Okay, so one, he calls that BB publicly, which I thought he was his puppet. No. Israel's not happy. The Iranian people are not happy. Uh, the people that were saying, "Hey, I thought you were a non-interventionist, you don't want any wars, any of that stuff." He's pulling out. He could have stayed there for a while. The, what do you call it? The uranium is out. The only thing that becomes problematic here where it so is that the negotiation was lost the following. The part I'm not happy about is the $300 billion. It's the part I'm not happy about. Because that is a form of, "I'm giving you the money."

• 35:57Patrick Bet-David?

  Now, if you go read the book Economic Hitman, this is a business model where you come in and you put your people in. I don't know if that makes sense or not. So if you come in and you build $300 billion in a country and I'm building those in, I'm officially slowly crawling into your system. So I slowly have access to what's gonna be happening in the next decade or two. The difference is, it's gonna be under a different president, so who knows what is gonna happen? But there's no question- That this man just proved he's America first, no question. He made a lot of enemies with this deal. And he's saying, no, this is what we're doing, we're moving on. And he's validating the fact that, hey, do you think if Iran was easier to take over today, would have been a regime change or a regime collapse?

• 36:39Adam Sosnick?

  Oh, yeah.

• 36:40Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, so which means we learned what?

• 36:42Adam Sosnick?

  It's hard to do.

• 36:43Patrick Bet-David?

  Iran is a lot harder than Venezuela.

• 36:45Adam Sosnick?

  Well, it's because Iran will kill themselves, kill their own people before they cut a deal to the enemy.

• 36:51Patrick Bet-David?

  Sure, but the point is, you have to also sit there and say, is this worth the Jews? Is it worth the what, sir? Is it worth the Jews of us going there? J U I C E, not J E W.

• 37:03Adam Sosnick?

  I said, what'd you say, sir?

• 37:04Patrick Bet-David?

  So is it worth the Jews? And he's sitting there saying, no, I'm gonna come back and do it this way and here's what we're gonna be doing. And the market is like, oh, oh, oh, oh. People were so confused. But just yesterday, at the Iran game, guys, I don't know if you have these clips or not. I'll send you some of these clips. I don't know if you guys saw this or not. Did you see any of this stuff that was going on in the game?

• 37:24Adam Sosnick?

  I saw.

• 37:25Patrick Bet-David?

  Afterwards, of them fighting and say, hey, you know, I'll send you this one here to show, fights after fights after fights with people that are wearing the two different colored, uh, two different colored, uh, what do you call it?

• 37:38Adam Sosnick?

  At the Iran game, the Iran flag?

• 37:40Patrick Bet-David?

  You play the one I sent you, because there's a lot of them. I like the one that I just sent you. There's quite a few of them to pick from. That's one of them I like. The game's going on, Iran's playing, Iranians are outside.

• 37:51Adam Sosnick?

  This is in LA, by the way, right?

• 37:53Patrick Bet-David?

  This is, I think it's in LA, at SoFi Stadium. And you're seeing them screaming at each other in Farsi. If you don't speak Farsi, you want to understand what they're saying. Press that audio button on the bottom right, guys, before you press play. Thank you, go forward.

• 38:07Patrick Bet-David?

  So she's wearing the IRGC flag.

• 38:09Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah.

• 38:10Patrick Bet-David?

  This lady's wearing the IRGC flag, this lady. Of course, she's got her hair covered.

• 38:14Adam Sosnick?

  Got her hair covered, yeah.

• 38:17Adam Sosnick?

  It's not very ladylike.

• 38:19Patrick Bet-David?

  But the other ones are, this one, they're wearing the Shah and Shahi, the Shah's flag.

• 38:26Patrick Bet-David?

  And they're calling terrorists. He's saying, shame on you, yes?

• 38:36Adam Sosnick?

  Shame, shame. Like in Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones.

• 38:42Patrick Bet-David?

  That's Shyam.

• 38:46Patrick Bet-David?

  By the way, this is FY, you can pause it right there. You can literally find thousands of clips like this.

• 38:52Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah.

• 38:52Patrick Bet-David?

  Of what happened at the game. John?

• 38:55Speaker 05

  I don't know why she wore the flag. I mean, you're looking for, you're walking into a bull ring with a red cape around your back. I mean, she's looking for trouble in LA.

• 39:06Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah. And so that's the part where Iranians are sitting there saying, you promised us this, you promised us that. And if they have to choose between blaming Trump or blaming blaming the sun, nine out of 10 times, they're going to blame Trump. He's going to be a lot easier person to blame than to blame, uh, uh, uh, Reza Pahlavi. But that's kind of where they're at. If the president really wanted to place Reza Pahlavi, he could have done it. Why didn't he do it? You got to answer the question. You, the Iranian people that are pro Pahlavi, why didn't he do that?

• 39:36Speaker 05

  But it might be, it might, it might be, it might be harder than anybody thought. Look, well, what have we learned in these new wars? When they start war gaming, the new wars, look at the Ukraine. I gave them like two months. We're going up on five years. Iran would have been a lot harder to take all the way down because the regime, if they lose, they're taken out into the streets and skinned alive. They're going to fight till the end. And so I think the lessons from these two wars, Ukraine and Iran is, it's not the same wars that we used to think about. And now you got these drones and you got these,

• 40:17Speaker 05

  you know, Houthis and Hamas and Hezbollah, all with H's. I don't know why all H's, but it's a whole new game for warfare in the world. And now we're going to add AI onto that, which will be a whole nother consequence.

• 40:35Patrick Bet-David?

  Does that benefit us or them to be able to, because you know, spying is going to go to a whole different level with AI, the next five to 10 years.

• 40:41Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah.

• 40:41Patrick Bet-David?

  Does spying benefit us? Like, will we be able to spy on them better than them on us? I'm talking specifically Iran.

• 40:48Speaker 05

  Well, first of all, if I'm going to bet on spying, I'm always betting on Israel.

• 40:53Speaker 05

  I mean, I mean, I just want to be, I want to, no.

• 40:59Adam Sosnick?

  They're the goats.

• 41:01Speaker 05

  They're the goats. They are the goats.

• 41:03Tom Ellsworth?

  There's college, there's pro, and there's Super Bowl.

• 41:06Adam Sosnick?

  There's the goats.

• 41:07Speaker 05

  And they're, they're, so as long as we got, as long as we're in on their eavesdropping, we're in pretty good shape.

• 41:12Adam Sosnick?

  I just gotta say, I've, I've agreed to pretty much everything Mr. Morgan has said today. Probably the, the, the most important thing he said was, we have no idea how big and hard this deal is to even get done. Those two people who went to the Iran game were both, were both rooting for Iran to win the game. Do you think there's any compromise with those two people on how they see the different flags of their country? One with the IRGC flag, one with the, the rising lion, those people hate each other. Now multiply that to every other country in the region trying to get a deal done. Multiply that with Qatar, with Israel, with Turkey, all these different interests in America, Republicans, Democrats, those two people, both Iranian, both Persian, hate each other.

• 41:55Adam Sosnick?

  Calling him a traitor, calling him shame, and they're rooting for the same team.

• 41:59Patrick Bet-David?

  They are.

• 42:00Adam Sosnick?

  That's how hard.

• 42:00Patrick Bet-David?

  But it, but it's a different ideology.

• 42:02Speaker 05

  The real, the real.

• 42:03Adam Sosnick?

  I agree. Just like Republicans have a different ideology than the far leftists.

• 42:07Patrick Bet-David?

  This is even bigger than that.

• 42:08Adam Sosnick?

  I agree with you.

• 42:09Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, this is even.

• 42:10Adam Sosnick?

  Sunni, Shia, and racist.

• 42:11Speaker 05

  The real, the, if you listen to him every time he ends, the real thing that President Trump wanted is the, he calls it the dust, the uranium.

• 42:20Adam Sosnick?

  The nuclear dust.

• 42:21Speaker 05

  The nuclear dust. That's what it's all about. And the question's gonna be, the, the, the 300 billion dollar question is gonna be, do we get the dust for the dough? And if we don't get the dust for the dough, I think it's a bust.

• 42:39Adam Sosnick?

  I'll tell you one thing I know about Trump. You know how they say Hollywood, it's, it's, it's not show friends, it's show business? Trump's all about business. He wants a deal done.

• 42:48Patrick Bet-David?

  Let's get to the next story. I got you. You're excited today. Let's go to the next story. This is good. Yes, I love it. Okay. So meanwhile, Iran's holding the funeral for Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and guess when they're doing it? Fourth of July.

• 43:00Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 43:00Patrick Bet-David?

  That's when they're doing it. You think it's accidental?

• 43:02Speaker 05

  No, it's when one's.

• 43:03Patrick Bet-David?

  When is Fourth of July? What day is it on? When is Fourth of July?

• 43:05Tom Ellsworth?

  It's on a Friday. It's on a weekend now.

• 43:07Patrick Bet-David?

  Is it?

• 43:08Adam Sosnick?

  It's a weekend.

• 43:08Patrick Bet-David?

  So maybe it's a coincidence.

• 43:10Adam Sosnick?

  Sure.

• 43:10Patrick Bet-David?

  Maybe it's a coincidence.

• 43:11Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah.

• 43:11Patrick Bet-David?

  Maybe it's like an accidental.

• 43:13Adam Sosnick?

  By the way, he was killed.

• 43:14Patrick Bet-David?

  Coincident.

• 43:15Adam Sosnick?

  Ninety days ago? How long has he killed ago?

• 43:16Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah.

• 43:17Speaker 04

  He's been on ice.

• 43:18Adam Sosnick?

  I mean, how long did he go?

• 43:19Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, but they needed safety to be able to do the ceremony, the way they're gonna do it. They're probably gonna do it pretty big. Uh, can you guys do me a favor? Can you pull up the clip of what Vance said denies that Iran will receive billions of dollars of assets in the deal? Because that's the kicker right there, right? Is it gonna be just the frozen assets? The 300 billion is the real thing. And even though US is broker in the deal, if I'm not mistaken, it's not 300 billion dollars that taxpayers will be paying. I think it's an element of a multiple different countries that are involved in that. Is this it? Guys about the money?

• 43:54Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah, and releasing frozen.

• 43:55Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, go for it, go for it.

• 43:57Speaker 06

  People say that billions of dollars of assets will be released. That's not true. What is true is that Iran will have a much better and much more prosperous future if they meet the obligations they make in this agreement. We'll of course see, that's one of the things we're gonna work out in the technical talks that will follow the official signing on Friday.

• 44:15Tom Ellsworth?

  Mr. Vice President, it's Ed O'Keefe, and we're so glad you're here, in part because as Republican Senator Lindsey Graham said yesterday, you are the architect of this deal, so let's walk through some of this. The Iranians are saying that they're gonna have access to a 300 billion dollar reconstruction fund, true or false?

• 44:31Speaker 06

  Well, Ed, that's the sort of thing they could have access to, funded by the Gulf Coast Coalition, so long as they honor their end of the obligation. I think that one of the things you're gonna see, Ed, and people have to be skeptical of this, is that the hardliners in the Iranian system will overemphasize the benefits that Iran gets, while underemphasizing all the things that they have to concede and all the things they have to provide in order to get these benefits. So, we absolutely are open to the Gulf Coast countries investing in the reconstruction of Iran, but only if Iran ends their nuclear program, ends their enriched stockpile of material, and is really open to an inspections and enforcement regime that gives the American people confidence they're never gonna have a nuclear weapon.

• 45:16Speaker 06

  So, I think the dance you're gonna see, Ed, which is gonna be interesting, is the Iranian media, especially the hardline media, they're gonna talk a lot about what they get without talking about what they give.

• 45:28Patrick Bet-David?

  It's important for all of us to correct that record. Well, pretty interesting.

• 45:32Speaker 05

  Well, listen, one thing, one thing he didn't want to hear is you are the architect.

• 45:37Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah.

• 45:38Speaker 05

  I mean, that is like, you know, this is.

• 45:40Patrick Bet-David?

  Lawyer talk.

• 45:41Speaker 05

  Lawyer talk, and this is presidential election talk 2028. There he's, he's setting J D Vance up, or somebody is, for a big win or a big fall.

• 45:53Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, so this $300 billion is not reparations, just so you know, it's not a guarantee. Everybody wants to know who controls the money.

• 45:59Speaker 05

  It's a lot of, you're right, it's a lot of release of frozen funds.

• 46:03Patrick Bet-David?

  Apparently Gulf states are going to be involved, private investors are going to be involved. U S is going to be involved. It's not a check wire, we're handing it to you, go do whatever you want to do. There are certain things that they could do to screw up even getting the money. But Tom, your thoughts, what else do you know about this 300 billion?

• 46:18Tom Ellsworth?

  Well, I love the line that's in the 14 points. While insuring a financing of at least 300 billion agreed upon by both parties for the rehabilitation and economic development of the Islamic Republic of Iran, together with regional partners to create a comprehensive plan that will be formulated within 60 days. They're saying financing, they're not saying that this is more pallets like Obama sent over there. They're talking about Gulf states. So let's, let me just make it really simple. Do you remember everybody was upset when Dick Cheney, I mean, the United States arranged for Halliburton to go back and rebuild Iraq?

• 46:59Speaker 05

  Weird.

• 46:59Tom Ellsworth?

  Well, now it's all the little Halliburtons that are in the Gulf states. They're all going to get their piece of the pie. And guess what? Iran can pay for it with oil. And so they're saying, Pat, it's a $300 million financing, a lot of other countries would be involved, and so it's not pallets of cash the way Obama did previously.

• 47:20Speaker 05

  And what you hope, what you hope, since Trump is a construction guy, the way you build buildings is you meet certain thresholds and then you get certain draws. You don't just get the money. Up front, if you want to be bonded, you gotta, you meet certain thresholds and then you get a draw and then a draw and a draw.

• 47:39Patrick Bet-David?

  You know, you know that's how it's going to be.

• 47:41Speaker 05

  I would think, listen, Trump, it, Trump is a construction, that's his business.

• 47:47Patrick Bet-David?

  That's right.

• 47:47Speaker 05

  And so what I, and he's, he's used construction throughout his presidency and I can't imagine him rebuilding anything without certain thresholds and construction like draws. And I think one of those draws is gonna be the dust.

• 48:05Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, and by the way, that, that, the, the key in there is, you don't get any of the, so one, the Hormuz has to stay open, you cannot do anything, you have to agree to the terms. And if you don't release the enriched uranium that Trump said US needs to see it, I don't want to have another country see it, I want to see it. If that doesn't happen, you're not getting that set up in place to be able to help you out. None of that's gonna be taking place, Adam.

• 48:26Speaker 05

  Hopefully.

• 48:27Patrick Bet-David?

  Hopefully, I agree.

• 48:29Adam Sosnick?

  My opinion, they're never gonna see that 300 billion, they could have called it 18 trillion gazillion, they're never gonna see that money, why? Because it's all predicated on how, on if they change their behavior or not. Remember in, uh, 2016, we all learned the word quid pro quo? It's a pay, it's a quid pro quo.

• 48:47Patrick Bet-David?

  Yep.

• 48:48Adam Sosnick?

  This entire deal is based on the premise that they're gonna be rewarded for good behavior. So Iran, the biggest terrorist regime in the world, the smelly kid on the playground, is just gonna overnight be like, we want to be friends with everybody. There's no chance that's gonna happen. So whether this is 300 billion or 300 gazillion, they're never gonna see this money, because they're not gonna change the behavior. It's great for marketing, Trump did an amazing job on his birthday, cutting this deal, we all know that once midterms is done, I don't think Iran is going anywhere, we'll probably be re-engaged with Iran after midterm.

• 49:21Patrick Bet-David?

  Vinny, I'm coming to you about UFC, what is the whole thing about plotting FBI, they were trying to attack the drone, what happened there with that story?

• 49:27Speaker 04

  Apparently, the FBI said, and they caught, I think, a dozen and a couple more that were plotting against it, I think they're out of California. They stopped the major planned terror attack targeting the UFC Freedom Event at the White House. According to reports, investigators uncovered a plot involving explosive drones. And even a planned breach of the White House gates during the chaos, Pat? And I'm gonna have them show this clip. They wanted to start the chaos outside, funnel everybody into a designated area. And they were gonna have snipers shooting at all the people running out. This is the Fox clip right here.

• 51:43Speaker 06

  Officials telling Fox, a network of nearly two dozen potential plotters were identified with at least five people in custody right now. The suspects allegedly traveled to Fredericksburg, Virginia to make final preparations for the attack. And the alleged plan allegedly included explosive pack drones hitting buildings near the event, forcing a mass evacuation, and then steering crowds, get this, toward a pre-staged sniper team. A second wave was then planned to storm the White House gate. The FBI first learned of the threat on June 10th and worked with law enforcement across multiple states to stop it.

• 52:28Speaker 04

  And you could pause it until that FBI has arrested Ohio man Tyson Proper for allegedly plotting a terrorist attack targeting the UFC event. Investigators say he planned to use explosive laden drones nearby buildings and multiple additional suspects have been arrested. So, I mean, think about it, guys, it's an America event, America's back, you gotta have a little bit of terrorism.

• 52:48Patrick Bet-David?

  Isn't that crazy that this is not even a top 10 story?

• 52:50Speaker 04

  It's not, it's not.

• 52:51Patrick Bet-David?

  Is that not crazy that it's not even, did you even know about this, John?

• 52:54Speaker 05

  I know about it, but I tell you, when I saw the plotters, it looked like Duck Dynasty was trying to, you know, attack the White House.

• 53:02Patrick Bet-David?

  You were not impressed?

• 53:03Speaker 05

  I wasn't, yeah, I just wasn't.

• 53:04Patrick Bet-David?

  Show it, show it to Duck, he's right.

• 53:06Speaker 05

  Yeah, I mean, I'm like.

• 53:07Patrick Bet-David?

  Can you show their faces?

• 53:08Speaker 05

  Yeah, I mean, it was like, when I saw the faces, I'm like, these guys can't, this is the gang, the gang who can't shoot straight.

• 53:15Patrick Bet-David?

  These guys, respectfully, these guys look like tough guys.

• 53:19Speaker 05

  They do.

• 53:20Tom Ellsworth?

  Pulling a Jimmy Breslin book out of the shelf there.

• 53:24Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, but Vinnie, you had another picture of a couple, these are two of the guys.

• 53:27Speaker 05

  Show the, show the main one.

• 53:29Speaker 04

  Yeah, the other guy's name is TYCEN.

• 53:31Speaker 05

  That's who you gotta show, cause that's.

• 53:32Speaker 04

  TYCEN?

• 53:34Speaker 05

  When I saw him, I was like, that guy's like Barney Fife, he can't, you know, they gotta give him one bullet.

• 53:38Tom Ellsworth?

  That guy does not look like Ahmed Al Kaboom.

• 53:41Speaker 05

  No.

• 53:42Tom Ellsworth?

  No, that's.

• 53:43Speaker 05

  Exactly.

• 53:44Speaker 04

  That's the guy.

• 53:45Speaker 05

  Yeah, no.

• 53:46Patrick Bet-David?

  But these guys wanted to take out.

• 53:47Speaker 05

  I'm not worried about him.

• 53:48Patrick Bet-David?

  Apparently the story was they wanted to take out Trump, JD, or Bibi because they thought Bibi was gonna be at the fight.

• 53:53Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 53:54Speaker 04

  Yeah, there's good intelligence here.

• 53:55Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah. By the way, watch this, three minute story, we're moving along to the next story. How crazy is it that this is not a main story? All right, so let me get to the next story I wanna get to is.

• 54:05Patrick Bet-David?

  Uh, do we want to go to Newsom's wife? Yeah, let's go to Newsom's wife. So Gavin Newsom comes out, posts a video, guys. If you want to pull up the video while I'm reading the addendum story. And all of a sudden, you're like, you're almost watching him. It's as if he's using the playbook, copying every single thing that the president did. They're coming after me, you know? He is literally copying every single page of the playbook that the Trump used. Except they did that to him. Here, he's using a playbook. Let me read it to you. Gavin Newsom says DOJ is investigating him and his wife. And Newsom, a Democrat, did not specify exactly what the Department of Justice was allegedly investigating for. But play the clip. Go for, which clip do you want to play first?

• 54:50Patrick Bet-David?

  Him or the other one? Guys, this is four minutes and 42 seconds. Just play the first 60 seconds. Go ahead.

• 54:56Speaker 06

  In recent days, federal agents have knocked on the doors of family, friends, and former employees. Not because they found a crime, because they're simply trying to find one. They're demanding records. They're abusing the grand jury process, digging through years and years of random documents. Donald Trump isn't just coming after me because of my mean tweets. He's coming after me because I'm considering running for president.

• 55:21Patrick Bet-David?

  Considering, yeah.

• 55:23Speaker 06

  He hates that I consistently called him out over and over again for his lies and deceit. Donald Trump is simply the most corrupt president in American history. He's turned the levers of government into his own personal power ministries to reward cronies and to try to jail his opponents. His personal attorney now runs the Department of Justice, which has repeatedly gone after his political enemies. Ask Jerome Powell. Sent them after James Comey, Trish James, Adam Schiff. He sent them after Tim Walz and a woman that a jury found Donald Trump had sexually abused.

• 56:04Speaker 06

  One by one, anyone who has challenged Donald Trump has ended up on his hit list. And today, I proudly join that list.

• 56:13Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, can pause that right to Vinny?

• 56:14Speaker 04

  So stop complaining about it. It's such, it's so funny to hear the left talking about weaponization of the government as if they're just coming out of this from nowhere. So one of the biggest questions raised, guys, is Jennifer Newsom's nonprofit, The Representation Project, reports an IRS filing showed that she allegedly paid herself 1.8 million dollars in salary while another 2.1 million reportedly went to her production company. It's called Girls Club Entertainment through nonprofit funding tied to donors. Connect it to Gavin Newsom's political world. That's almost 4 million dollars flowing back into her own ecosystem while California lectures taxpayers about equity and compassion.

• 56:53Speaker 04

  Now, this is days, literally the day that, after that this news broke, the federal investigation, Gavin Newsom agreed to pay 31,500 ethics fine for California's own political watchdog, found he failed to properly disclose over 5.5 million in donor payments he personally solicited tied to corporations, foundations, and wildfire funding, relief funding. And then, by the way, this just comes, remember in May, we talked about that free diaper newborn tax situation that they did, Tom? Remember, Pat? They were cheating the system. And then, this is what I think is happening.

• 57:25Tom Ellsworth?

  Five times more expensive than Costco.

• 57:27Speaker 04

  Yeah, weird. And it's, by the way, chickens have come home to roost because let's not forget, I think, this is my opinion, Pat, Dana Williamson, his former, Gavin Newsom's former chief of staff, she pled guilty in May to bank and wire fraud, false tax returns, and lying to federal agents, and the penalty is over 30 years in prison. Think about that. That's, to me, maybe she's talking, maybe she's blowing the whistle, and just for everybody that's like...

• 57:50Tom Ellsworth?

  Maybe she wants 30 to go down.

• 57:51Speaker 04

  Exactly, to maybe go up to 10 to 15. But let's just clear the air, this investigation began under Joseph Biden, not Donald Trump. So all this, everybody's coming after me is nonsense. And let's just be obvious, this is the same guy, Pat, in the same state, that spent 24 billion dollars, I'm gonna say that number again, 24B with the billion, to get rid of homelessness, Mr. Morgan, and what happened? It multiplied. It's as if the money went to make them more drugged out and more strung out to put them on the street.

• 58:21Patrick Bet-David?

  At least he got the speed railroad done. At least he got that done.

• 58:24Speaker 04

  No, Pat, he didn't. Yeah, he didn't. He didn't.

• 58:26Patrick Bet-David?

  And at least it wasn't that big of a budget. It was only a 31 billion dollar budget and they hit it.

• 58:30Speaker 04

  It's not...

• 58:31Patrick Bet-David?

  But it ended up being now 120 something billion dollars to get it done. Okay, so that also didn't get done.

• 58:35Speaker 04

  That didn't get...

• 58:36Patrick Bet-David?

  By the way, check this out, when you're saying the 1.8 million dollars... Reports indicate that at least one investigation centers on Jennifer's taxes and finances, including her nonprofit, which you talked about 1.8 million, and a 1.64 million to her company since 2012.

• 58:49Speaker 05

  Yes.

• 58:49Patrick Bet-David?

  To 2012, who's president? Obama's president, right? We're going back 2012. For services totaling around 3.7 million over a decade, conservatives have questioned these. Others described them as standards for such roles, which this is what the argument they're gonna need to make. John, you're here as a lawyer. If you were representing Newsom's, you would represent a different way if you represent the government trying to investigate them. I'm gonna come to you for the question on how would you do it with both? But here's the part. A separate probe relates to Newsom's former chief of staff Dana Williamson. If you want to bring this up, because we talked about her

• 59:23Speaker 05

  Yep.

• 59:23Patrick Bet-David?

  about four or five weeks ago.

• 59:25Speaker 05

  Yep.

• 59:25Patrick Bet-David?

  Who pleaded guilty in a 2025 corruption case involving a dormant campaign account, not directly implicating Newsom. So she took the blame.

• 59:35Speaker 05

  Of course.

• 59:35Patrick Bet-David?

  So, John, you're a lawyer. You're one of the most famous lawyers in America. You run Morgan and Morgan. You spend 350 to half a billion dollars of advertising per year. Some of the biggest lawyers in America worked for you. Bobby Kennedy, before he became who he is today. I don't know if people know this or not. He was working for John, and the numbers are public. He made nine to 10 million dollars working for you, as well as a lot of other big lawyers. Your family guy, your very successful billionaire. You've done all this other stuff for yourself. John, give me both perspective. The government comes, they hire you. What do we do here? Newsom family hires you. What do you look for?

• 1:00:09Speaker 05

  The first thing, the first thing we've got to say is, look, one of the reasons that Donald Trump won in a landslide was that he was prosecuted multiple times.

• 1:00:20Patrick Bet-David?

  Hmm.

• 1:00:21Speaker 05

  So Newsom saw that, and it worked for him. The difference, the difference is, Trump actually sat in a courtroom freezing his ass off. And he sat there like a bull every day. That's a whole lot different than people rattling your cage. The other thing that Newsom saw is that he tweets out these mean tweets, and he's trying to emulate that, and it's really not working for him. So he's, he's taking the Trump playbook and going that way. The problem for all of them is, look, Donald Trump, after he went through what he went through, his promise was retribution, and he's coming back through here, turning every stone. And you're right, these stones were already turned before here.

• 1:01:07Speaker 05

  I've always been amazed at the whole Gavin Newsom, who his wife was, and then who Donald Jr. was with, I mean, the whole thing.

• 1:01:16Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah.

• 1:01:16Speaker 05

  You, you wouldn't believe it if it was a, a movie, that, that, that his old wi-

• 1:01:22Patrick Bet-David?

  His old wife was Kimberly Guilfoyle, who was Don Jr.'s actress.

• 1:01:25Speaker 04

  A little bit of a party circle.

• 1:01:26Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, and party circle, and then now she's in Greece, and, and so that's always got me, you know, it's like the Bidens marrying each other's wives. But, the, the, the last thing I'll just say about her, that's gonna be the little secret thing, is, you know, when Harvey Weinstein stood trial for sexual harassment, she was one of the people that said he harassed her, and guess what the jury found? No, he didn't.

• 1:01:54Patrick Bet-David?

  Consensual.

• 1:01:55Speaker 05

  Nope, I'm not gonna say consensual. I'm just gonna say, they did not find against Harvey Weinstein on her case.

• 1:02:06Patrick Bet-David?

  But, but then to me, the average person may say, well, then you, it was a consensual-

• 1:02:12Speaker 05

  We don't believe you.

• 1:02:14Patrick Bet-David?

  Exactly.

• 1:02:14Speaker 04

  Yeah, we don't believe-

• 1:02:15Patrick Bet-David?

  Which could mean to speculating that it was consensual, that he didn't force himself upon you. You're not saying that, I'm saying that.

• 1:02:21Speaker 05

  Right.

• 1:02:22Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, I got it, okay, fair enough.

• 1:02:24Speaker 05

  Because, because, I'm a lawyer and you're not.

• 1:02:28Patrick Bet-David?

  And so allegedly, one-

• 1:02:30Speaker 05

  Allegedly, allegedly-

• 1:02:31Patrick Bet-David?

  Allegedly one-

• 1:02:32Speaker 05

  Always, my, my lawyer advice to you today, always add the word.

• 1:02:37Patrick Bet-David?

  Well, let me-

• 1:02:37Speaker 05

  Allegedly.

• 1:02:38Patrick Bet-David?

  Folks, let me do this, can you guys in the back, go to VTmerch.com? So, I'm in the insurance business, I've been in the insurance business my entire life. We wanted to make sure that people were protected, so if you just type in the word allegedly, we actually have a collection called Allegedly, to protect people, anywhere they go to work, where I had, everything is allegedly.

• 1:03:00Speaker 05

  Exactly.

• 1:03:00Patrick Bet-David?

  So, can you do me a favor and put this link- But folks, go wear it, see what reaction you get from people. It is one of the funniest shirts you'll ever wear because on the front it says allegedly, on the back it says future looks bright, and everybody cracks up when you put this on.

• 1:03:13Speaker 05

  Please, please, please, please, please send me an Excel and, and also, I'm gonna rename this show after the July 14th, or the

• 1:03:23Tom Ellsworth?

  June 14.

• 1:03:24Speaker 05

  June 14. I'm gonna start calling you Patrick Damos.

• 1:03:31Speaker 05

  It's not, it's not PBD show, it's Patrick Damos. Allegedly, allegedly.

• 1:03:35Patrick Bet-David?

  Allegedly, I like that.

• 1:03:36Tom Ellsworth?

  Get him one of those shirts, ladies and gentlemen.

• 1:03:38Patrick Bet-David?

  Actually make a note, send it to my team, let's get him an Excel and a half, let's get the whole thing for you. We will definitely do that.

• 1:03:43Tom Ellsworth?

  Can we wrap on Newsom?

• 1:03:45Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, go for it.

• 1:03:45Tom Ellsworth?

  Some interesting things. There's a Calci up on this, $128 million has been placed on Calci. Gavin Newsom has not been able to get over 24% on Calci, and there has never been a Democrat candidate at this point, two years in, that didn't have 24% in the polls, the speculative polls before the primaries, that was ever nominated. And the big money PACs, some of them are kinda backing away. Would you like to know who is, who has tied AOC? John Ossoff, Senator, Senior Senator, Democrat from Georgia, seen as being a very neutral and strong candidate. He's, has this Presidential Exploratory Committee, apparently,

• 1:04:29Tom Ellsworth?

  allegedly, and you know what he's raised this year? Well, first of all, let's go this. AOC has raised $3.9 million this year. She doesn't need a big war chest to run reelection in her district. Newsom has only disclosed in California filings, 13.4 million. John Ossoff has raised this year already $60.4 million. He is developing a huge war chest. I happen to believe that the DNC and big money PACs, I initially was not Nostradamus because I was talking about JB Pritzker, I'm not talking about him anymore, but I will say this, I believe the DNC is backing away from

• 1:05:08Speaker 05

  Newsom.

• 1:05:08Tom Ellsworth?

  Newsom, because he's such, right now we say

• 1:05:11Speaker 05

  Problematic.

• 1:05:12Tom Ellsworth?

  The, the dog has fleas, as they would say, and I think these fleas are gonna be hard to exterminate before they get into there. So would they rather take, are they gonna, are they gonna win California with or without Newsom? Yes. Are they gonna win New York with or without AOC? Yes. What are those seven states?

• 1:05:30Adam Sosnick?

  Georgia's one of them.

• 1:05:31Patrick Bet-David?

  Pennsylvania, Georgia.

• 1:05:32Adam Sosnick?

  And Ossoff would bring Georgia.

• 1:05:34Patrick Bet-David?

  That's a good point.

• 1:05:34Speaker 05

  And but the other thing is, I took, I took Joe Scarborough and Mika to the Derby with me this year. Sorry about that, Gus. We'll get you next year. But.

• 1:05:46Patrick Bet-David?

  We go every year. This is actually the year we didn't go.

• 1:05:48Speaker 05

  I know.

• 1:05:49Adam Sosnick?

  John, that's a broken contract, sir.

• 1:05:50Speaker 05

  Come on.

• 1:05:51Patrick Bet-David?

  But. Can you imagine him at the Derby, how much fun he would be?

• 1:05:54Speaker 04

  Oh, my God.

• 1:05:54Speaker 05

  But, you know, they were talking, and I think they're right. One way or the other, if Ossoff wins his reelection, he's on the ticket. He might not be the president, but he's 39 years old, and this guy is a rock star.

• 1:06:08Adam Sosnick?

  A debater at Solon.

• 1:06:09Speaker 05

  Yeah, and so.

• 1:06:10Patrick Bet-David?

  He just needs to go tanning a little bit. He's a little too white.

• 1:06:13Speaker 05

  Well, I have a, I have a saying, I have a saying about tanning. Brown fat looks better than white fat. So I'm always for.

• 1:06:22Adam Sosnick?

  You look great.

• 1:06:23Speaker 05

  And if you can't tone it, tan it. But that's.

• 1:06:27Adam Sosnick?

  That's the Dave Portnoy approach.

• 1:06:28Speaker 05

  Yeah, exactly.

• 1:06:30Adam Sosnick?

  I'm gonna disagree with our dear friends here, and I don't want to do this. It gives me no pain or pleasure. But if you tell me that you think John Ossoff, a Jewish guy from Georgia, is gonna win the Democratic, Democratic nomination, you're smoking something or maybe taking a mushroom.

• 1:06:49Speaker 05

  I said, I said Vice President.

• 1:06:50Adam Sosnick?

  I'm talking to our friend Tom here, and I want to be respectful, because I think the guy's a talented guy. Him and Raphael Warnock in Georgia, there ain't no chance that the Democratic Party is nominating a Jewish guy. I'm sorry. There's ain't no party, nobody's doing that at this point. Gavin Newsom, right now, is the guy. This guy, John Ossoff, better work his Ossoff if he thinks he's gonna take out Gavin Newsom. By the way, Gavin Newsom is the most skilled politician in America. Has someone done more with nothing than Gavin Newsom? Name any accomplishment. Go. What he's done more than anything is this look maxing thing. Oh, he's looks maxing.

• 1:07:28Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:07:28Adam Sosnick?

  No doubt. Karen Bass in LA is woke maxing. San Francisco, which I'm sure we'll get into, is LGBTQ maxing out there. The bottom line is this, do not California my America. You know that phrase you heard, don't California my Texas. There's no chance in America today, unless we've gone completely insane, that we're gonna nominate a radical progressive California Democrat to run America, unless America completely wants to be ruined.

• 1:07:56Speaker 04

  And I think Gavin's problem, I think Gavin Newsom's big, big problem, it was his tactic for this past four years is Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump Hitler, Trump Gestapo, Trump eyes, but meanwhile.

• 1:08:09Adam Sosnick?

  Camera, camera, camera.

• 1:08:10Speaker 04

  Yeah, but that's every Democrat playbook. Yeah, but for him, if you want to be the frontrunner, if you want to be the frontrunner, everybody had him at the end of the day. There's no amount of gel or a smile is gonna take away from the fact, from your resume, because that's gonna be, that's gonna be front and center, besides the corruption, besides your wife, besides everything, and Tom nailed it, that dog has so many fleas on him, once he's on the limelight, every debater, I don't care, bro, Tico could come in there and debate him, and Tico could go down every problem with California, America's not that dumb. Because Adam, at the end of the day, he's not going against Trump. We don't even know who's he gonna go up, J.D. Vance, Marco Rubio, they will all wipe the floor with him. Because at the end of the day, I understand the, if it was somebody going against Trump, Kamala somebody, it's

• 1:08:53Speaker 04

  not Trump. People have to understand, in 2028, it ain't Trump. So for the four years you've been Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, the smoke is gonna clear, and guess what? Trump's bye-bye, he's gonna be gone, and whoever he's gonna put up is gonna be the one that's gonna.

• 1:09:05Speaker 05

  And one other thing about him, don't forget, before he was against transgender swimmers competing, he was also for a, in California, $350,000 per person reparation.

• 1:09:19Speaker 04

  It was, yep.

• 1:09:20Speaker 05

  Reparation.

• 1:09:21Adam Sosnick?

  And he'll get up there on the debate stage.

• 1:09:23Speaker 05

  Well, he's now, he's now, look, he, everybody learned from Mitt Romney's Etch A Sketch. Remember that? He said, just, it's, you win the primary and then it's Etch A Sketch, you shake it up.

• 1:09:33Speaker 04

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 1:09:34Speaker 05

  So, everybody's got that playbook, but, but there's, that 350 was like, and where are you gonna pay for it? So, those are, those are his things on the record.

• 1:09:42Patrick Bet-David?

  I'm excited about 2028. I'm excited about 2028. It's like, you know, in baseball, trade deadlines are coming up in baseball, right?

• 1:09:49Adam Sosnick?

  End of July.

• 1:09:50Patrick Bet-David?

  July, end of July, and Tom gets all excited, honestly. Tom literally gets excited.

• 1:09:54Speaker 05

  Who's, who's the Republican nominee?

• 1:09:55Speaker 04

  Yeah, I wanna hear this, write this down.

• 1:09:56Speaker 05

  Who do I think? I say Rubio.

• 1:09:58Patrick Bet-David?

  Me too.

• 1:09:59Speaker 05

  Because the architect of Iran is J.D. Vance.

• 1:10:03Adam Sosnick?

  J.D. Vance, money's thrown under the bus.

• 1:10:05Speaker 04

  Yeah, good label they put on there.

• 1:10:07Patrick Bet-David?

  But, but, by the way, you, you have to realize.

• 1:10:09Speaker 05

  And I believe Marco will get Cuba before this term's over.

• 1:10:13Patrick Bet-David?

  I think, I think there's a big difference between Marco and J.D. And here's the difference. You know what the difference is, Vinny? What do you think between the two?

• 1:10:22Speaker 04

  Between J.D. and Marco, well, Rubio's been in this game for a minute.

• 1:10:27Adam Sosnick?

  Yep.

• 1:10:27Speaker 04

  Uh, J.D. came out of nowhere and got.

• 1:10:29Patrick Bet-David?

  Who do you like, which of the two do you like?

• 1:10:30Speaker 04

  Rubio, absolutely.

• 1:10:31Patrick Bet-David?

  You know, you know what I think is the difference?

• 1:10:33Speaker 05

  You know what the difference is? I'm gonna jump in, Notre Dame is. Rubio believes what he's saying. J.D. Vance called Trump Hitler. Two different people. Two different ways.

• 1:10:49Patrick Bet-David?

  Now, did you see him on The View? Right after he was done with The View during the break, he says, Joy said to me, look, we like you for a Republican. They actually like him. So, you have to realize, they, I don't know if they're gonna like Rubio, but they do like him, okay? Here's the difference in my opinion between J.D. and Marco. Vinny, how much, I'll ask you guys, Tom, you know, Adam, we're around Vinny all the time. How much effort does Vinny have to put to be funny?

• 1:11:18Speaker 05

  Zero, it's inherent. He's real.

• 1:11:20Patrick Bet-David?

  You see how that works?

• 1:11:22Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:11:22Patrick Bet-David?

  This is how much effort the guy has to put to be funny. Okay? Versus, some of us have to make an effort to tell dad jokes. Some of us failed comedians have to say, "We were comedians and we hire comedians." And some of us try to be funny, but it's a 50/50 hit and miss, right? But this guy never has to try. To me, Marco's not trying. Marco's being. I think JD's trying. I think that's the difference.

• 1:11:50Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:11:50Patrick Bet-David?

  I think JD's gonna be the one that he... He reminds me of a guy I know. He reminds me of a guy that since he was 18 years old, he wanted to be a president. I think you're gonna have to beg Marco to run for office. I don't think you have to beg JD to run for office. I think that's the difference. You know what I'm saying? For president?

• 1:12:07Speaker 05

  Yeah, but I'll tell you, everybody needs to read a book called The 48 Rules of Power.

• 1:12:11Patrick Bet-David?

  Forty-Eight Laws of Power.

• 1:12:12Speaker 05

  Forty-Eight Laws of Power.

• 1:12:13Patrick Bet-David?

  Robert Greene.

• 1:12:13Speaker 05

  Yes. And look, they all play a different game. And they're all playing a different game. And Marco, I think, is kind of the Paul Ryan game, reluctant. The reluctant one. "I don't care, I don't care, I don't care, but I really care."

• 1:12:28Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah.

• 1:12:28Speaker 05

  And so, you know, there's the book. What's it called?

• 1:12:30Patrick Bet-David?

  Forty-Eight Laws of Power.

• 1:12:31Speaker 05

  Forty-Eight Laws of Power.

• 1:12:32Patrick Bet-David?

  Very good book.

• 1:12:33Speaker 05

  No, that, that, listen, that needs to be right behind your bible, right there. But all these guys...

• 1:12:38Patrick Bet-David?

  Probably is for a lot of people.

• 1:12:39Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah. But Marco is, I think, playing the best game of Forty-Eight Laws of Power. And I think JD's playing the worst game. And I think throwing him into the architect of Iran is like when they threw Kamala into... Control the bor- Control the Border. I mean, that was like, if you, if you wanna, if you wanna kill somebody, so who's... Welcome to the border, two drink minimum. Yeah, yeah. So who, oh yeah, so I say Rubio, you say Rubio, who's the nominee?

• 1:13:09Patrick Bet-David?

  Rubio.

• 1:13:11Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah, I don't like to speculate that early, but if I had to put all my money on one horse, it'd be Rubio. I had the pleasure of hanging out with Rubio and Hegseth and a lot of the staff at the UFC.

• 1:13:21Patrick Bet-David?

  It was great seeing everybody at the UFC.

• 1:13:22Adam Sosnick?

  It was great.

• 1:13:23Patrick Bet-David?

  What a great time talking to everybody.

• 1:13:24Adam Sosnick?

  It was great. We had a great time.

• 1:13:26Speaker 04

  It was wonderful.

• 1:13:27Patrick Bet-David?

  Incredible.

• 1:13:28Adam Sosnick?

  I know you were over on the other side, I was on the side with Rubio. And I said, I did a video, you could see it, I said, "I think I'm standing here with the next president of the United States." He goes, "You're running for president?"

• 1:13:37Patrick Bet-David?

  Ah.

• 1:13:38Adam Sosnick?

  I go, "Yeah." So, Saznik and Rubio, 2028.

• 1:13:40Patrick Bet-David?

  That's right.

• 1:13:41Adam Sosnick?

  He's humble and he's cool, and the most important thing to me, he threw up a 305.

• 1:13:45Patrick Bet-David?

  By the way, you know, his son plays football, his son's like a total stud.

• 1:13:49Adam Sosnick?

  His son's a stud. Michael Irvin was sitting right there.

• 1:13:51Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 1:13:52Adam Sosnick?

  Imagine if we have Mar-a-Lago presidency, down to a 305 presidency?

• 1:13:56Patrick Bet-David?

  All right, let me get to the next story. Let me get to the next story, let me get to the next story, because you know, every time we do podcasts, Adam's gotta give his shout-outs.

• 1:14:02Adam Sosnick?

  I mean, we have to.

• 1:14:03Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, okay, let me get to the next story. Here's the next story I want to get to. Will this be one of the stories that'll be up there? Okay, so Elon Musk, as of right now, is worth around 1.3 to 1.4 trillion dollars, as of right now, okay? Numbers came up, it's so funny, I saw a meme that said, "The richest men in the world", and it had Elon Musk number one, number two it had Khamenei because of 300 billion dollars.

• 1:14:27Adam Sosnick?

  With an asterisk. With an asterisk.

• 1:14:33Patrick Bet-David?

  With an asterisk next to it.

• 1:14:35Adam Sosnick?

  Very bummed.

• 1:14:36Patrick Bet-David?

  It was so hilarious that he was on there, but Elon Musk is 1.3.

• 1:14:38Speaker 04

  You called it, but like, can I give you another? Oh, Patrodamis, is that what you call him? Patrodamis?

• 1:14:43Adam Sosnick?

  Yes.

• 1:14:44Speaker 04

  You called the billionaire thing for Elon Musk a couple months, a year ago?

• 1:14:46Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah. But let me tell you, I also told, I also told, you know, I don't know who, Adam Kinz, I don't know who was a guy that responded, I said, "There's gonna be two to five more trillionaires, there's gonna be five more trillionaires in the next two to five years." I think that's gonna happen like this in no time, but let's stay on this. He becomes a trillionaire. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren furious. Okay. How dare you become a trillionaire? Does a person really need that much wealth? Right to become a trillionaire? And they commented on this and guys, I think we got the clip on both of them. If we play this clip. I want to go to this because on SpaceX, the stock's gone up. It's not slowing down. It's the valuation hasn't slowed down. Where's SpaceX stock right now? Tom, if you look at it.

• 1:15:25Tom Ellsworth?

  195, down a little bit today, but 195.

• 1:15:27Patrick Bet-David?

  195. So you know, the people that made all the money, the 4,300, 4,400 people that became millionaires, the 33 non-executives that made 2 to 400 million dollars. Now that's 3 to 600 million dollars. Here's Elizabeth Warren reacting to it. And then as well as Bernie Sanders, and I want to kind of open it up because there's a calcio that came up, which I'll go after this guys. If you want to find that as well, the calcio of whether the wealth tax will be on the ballot in California. It's dropped like from 86% to 34%. Here's Elizabeth Warren. Go for it.

• 1:17:43Speaker 04

  Elon Musk is officially the world's first trillionaire. Think about that. We're living in a time when more and more people are just hanging on by their fingernails to survive in this economy, and Elon Musk has more money and more wealth than anyone in human history. I want to be clear, this is not just some fluke. It is a feature of a rigged economy. Elon Musk is officially...

• 1:18:10Patrick Bet-David?

  It's a rigged economy. So that's her saying a rigged economy. Bernie Sanders comes out and says, "Elon Musk's rise to trillionaire status is not a time to celebrate. It's a call to action to take on the unprecedented income and wealth inequality that now exists and the greed and power of a ruling class that is destroying the social fabric of America. Our democracy cannot survive when one man who has contributed $290 million to get Trump elected becomes $700 billion richer since he got elected. Our economy cannot sustain itself when one man owns more wealth than the bottom half of our society, when 60% of our people are paycheck to paycheck, when we have the highest rate of childhood poverty of any major nation, and when our kids have a lower standard of living than their parents. This is not about wealth, it's about power.

• 1:18:53Patrick Bet-David?

  Musk and his fellow oligarchs want it all. Together, we must fight back. We can and must create an economy and government that works for all of us, not just Elon Musk and his fellow billionaires." So, as a billionaire, John, how do you react to this?

• 1:19:09Speaker 05

  In my soon-to-be best-selling book, Life is Luck, I write... Oh, it's here. Yes. Surprise. Hey, we have one. Oh, I'm so surprised. I write about Elon Musk. Does everybody at this table know about a concept called first-principle thinking? No.

• 1:19:30Adam Sosnick?

  Yes, first principles, yeah.

• 1:19:31Speaker 05

  First-principle thinking. It was originated by Aristotle. And basically, what Elon Musk is, is a first-principle thinker. And here's how first-principle thinking works.

• 1:19:44Speaker 05

  There are assumptions that we've all made for a long, long time. And those assumptions stop us from doing a lot of things because we believe those assumptions to be true. What first principle thinking does, and what Aristotle taught Elon Musk, is you take those assumptions and you deconstruct them. And then you say, let's see how we can do it another way. Most of Elon Musk businesses are based on first principle thinking. Here's how. SpaceX, they say the rockets were too expensive. The rockets cost X. Guess what Elon Musk did?

• 1:20:25Speaker 05

  He deconstructed that and he said, what about this? What about if I build my own rockets? And instead of being 10X, it's X. That's why it works. That's first principle thinking. With the Tesla cars, it was impossible for a lot of reasons, but mainly batteries. And I think that's why we want Greenland to get minerals to run these batteries. And he said, you know what? And charging stations. So all the big guys said, it won't work. Elon Musk, with his first principle thinking, deconstructed all those assumptions and said, you know what? I'm gonna do it this way.

• 1:21:10Speaker 05

  What are his other first principle thinking? These tubes between cities, Las Vegas and Los Angeles. And then his ultimate first principle thought is life on Mars. The reason Elon Musk deserves it is because with first principle thinking, he took the impossible, that the smartest people in the world agreed was impossible, and then made it possible. And when you start trying to take away incentives to do big things.

• 1:21:42Speaker 05

  You're taking away the concept of the American dream.

• 1:21:46Patrick Bet-David?

  So what do you say to Warren and to Bernie? And them saying, you know, I cannot believe how much wealth he has. This is not good. We shouldn't see something like this.

• 1:21:55Speaker 05

  I'd say to them, what do you want him to do? Do you want him to stop? Do you want autonomous vehicles or not? Do you want us to be first in space? Do you want us to have colonies to go to? Do you want driverless car? Look, autonomous vehicles put me out of business in a lot of ways, but guess what? Forty-three thousand people aren't killed a year if he gets his way. So, look.

• 1:22:20Speaker 05

  Here's the thing that I think is driving most of it. It's a phrase you all have heard many times. Comparison is the thief of joy. And I believe what drives a lot of this is just pure, unadulterated envy. For a guy who, look, the guy's off. He's somewhere on a spectrum. We don't know. He stays high half of the day. But he's a genius and he's a first principle thinker. So, I think they're off base.

• 1:22:50Patrick Bet-David?

  Great teaching. By the way, very, very good teaching. And folks, if you're watching this, this is why I love talking to John. If you truly want to experience what it is to go become wealthy, have a good family, enjoy yourself. This guy has a lot of fun as well. Go support his book, Life is Luck. Tom, your thoughts on the story with, and by the way, let's put the link below, guys, in the description, in the comment, please, to make sure people can go support it. Tom, your thoughts on the story? With Musk becoming a trillionaire and Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren going after him?

• 1:23:16Tom Ellsworth?

  I don't understand it because I look at the, and I'll tell you why I don't understand. I think it is, I think John's correct about the jealousy and about the envy. Because think of the things he's accomplished. Are the Dems not in favor of green energy and solar? And so the guy that has invented these battery packs that go in your house to store energy made at a lower cost? And then Teslas, which do not use internal combustion.

• 1:23:42Speaker 05

  Starlink, Starlink.

• 1:23:44Tom Ellsworth?

  Starlink. And by the way, he's running a space program based on not by dropping crap into the ocean after you launch a rocket, which is the only way NASA and the Soviets and the French have done it for, and the Chinese have done it for decades. He's like, no, maybe, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. What if we just reuse the rocket and I catch it with this large stand with these big metal chopsticks? And I'll keep reusing it rather than dump it in the ocean? So why aren't the Democrats praising all of this list of things which brings a green angle and not more? And by the way, let's not talk about the chemicals that are inside those rockets when they get dropped in the engine, dropped in the ocean by NASA, Russia, China, everybody else.

• 1:24:29Tom Ellsworth?

  There's a lot of stuff in there at the bottom of the ocean. And so here he is in many ways, green? And wouldn't that play to them? Wouldn't they be praising this? Because this is the kind of things they want? No. Instead, it goes the other way. And the other part is, they don't have anything else to talk about. I once had a college professor that said, hey, on the essays, write me a one-sentence note if you really don't understand it. Because if you have nothing to say, be brief, and I will credit the fact that you didn't waste my time having to read BS. And so I think they don't have anything to say. What do they have to sell the American people on vision and future and product? No. They have to sell fear.

• 1:25:14Tom Ellsworth?

  They have to sell, you got left out. They have to sell the system is rigged. That's what they have to sell. They can't go off-message. And so they have to use this on-message. And it's old, it's stale, and to people who are seeing a little bit of light, a little bit of opportunity, you know, I think, I don't think this message is gonna play well in the middle. Adam. I think it will at the bottom. Okay, Adam.

• 1:25:43Adam Sosnick?

  I agree with my rich, smart friends to my right of me. Listen, Elon Musk, I think he famously quoted, he said, "You get paid in direct proportion to the difficulty of the size of the problems you solve." Has anybody solved bigger problems than Elon Musk? This guy's making autonomous vehicles, chips in your brain that you can think about what you want to do, rockets to space, and what do the Bernie Sanders of the world, the Elizabeth Warrens of the world, they want to hate on this. They don't want innovation. All they want to do, and it's such an attractive message, if you're just, talk about first principles, if you just don't know anything and you're like, he's a trillionaire, we should take his money. All they want to do is seize, tax, blame, shift blame.

• 1:26:31Adam Sosnick?

  Don't look at all the corruption we're doing. He's a trillionaire and the average person goes trillionaire. I'm barely a thousandaire, barely a millionaire, a billionaire, trillionaire. Take his money. What they don't want to focus on is all the benefits that the billionaires have done for society. The funniest things to me is sometimes you'll see like somebody working on their computer with their cellphone, with the Starbucks saying like socialism rocks. It's like all the products you're using were built by capitalists. But it's cognitive dissonance and they just want to.

• 1:27:03Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah.

• 1:27:03Speaker 05

  And one of the reasons I was gonna tell you that I write in there is this. I spent some time studying lotteries. Hmm. And you cannot believe the amount of money spent on lotteries in America. It's like an average person spends like $440 a year.

• 1:27:20Patrick Bet-David?

  Stop it.

• 1:27:21Speaker 05

  A year. Why? They want to be rich. They're trying to hit the powerball. There's a, you know, Gambler's Anonymous because people, everybody wants out. And when they don't get out, they get mad. And when they get mad, they get jealous and then they say, if not them, you know, give me a lottery.

• 1:27:49Patrick Bet-David?

  Somebody else's fault.

• 1:27:50Speaker 05

  And then the interesting part that I write about, about lotteries in that book is once they get the money.

• 1:27:55Patrick Bet-David?

  Yep.

• 1:27:55Speaker 05

  You ought to follow the lives of lottery winners after.

• 1:27:59Patrick Bet-David?

  Horrible.

• 1:28:00Speaker 05

  I mean, they all fuck it up.

• 1:28:01Adam Sosnick?

  It's all gone in five years.

• 1:28:03Speaker 05

  They all fuck it up.

• 1:28:04Patrick Bet-David?

  By the way, the best part about this book, the picture is the one on the back. Can you zoom in?

• 1:28:08Speaker 05

  Oh, my family.

• 1:28:09Patrick Bet-David?

  This is the best part about the picture.

• 1:28:10Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:28:11Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay.

• 1:28:11Speaker 05

  It's my crowd.

• 1:28:12Patrick Bet-David?

  Look, look how awesome this is. The whole family on the back, nothing matters more than this. I wish this wasn't a front, but life is. So let me, let me tell you what direction I go with this. So for me, do you know what percentage of R and D, okay? Does the private sector spend every year now?

• 1:28:32Patrick Bet-David?

  Private to the government, what percentage are in the of the total money spent is private versus the federal government?

• 1:28:38Adam Sosnick?

  I'd say 90% is private.

• 1:28:39Patrick Bet-David?

  Eighty, twenty is private. Here's the tricky part, do you know when it was equal? 1980. In 1980, it was the same. So whatever private sector spent on, um.

• 1:28:51Adam Sosnick?

  R and D.

• 1:28:51Patrick Bet-David?

  R and D.

• 1:28:52Adam Sosnick?

  Research and development.

• 1:28:52Patrick Bet-David?

  Was the same as the federal government was. By 2020, the private sector was beating them 3.6 times the amount.

• 1:29:00Adam Sosnick?

  Lapped them.

• 1:29:01Patrick Bet-David?

  So then you go and see the patents, the number of inventions that come out. Okay. Patent ownership, US businesses receive 85 to 86% of USPTO utility patents assigned to domestic owners, the government sector, less than 1%. Government funded patents, which is what a lot of people will say, well, you know what? SpaceX, the government kind of supported it and they were involved, et cetera, et cetera. Only 2% of US patents are publicly funded by privately owned, yet they account for 20% of medium term fluctuations in productivity and GDP growth. When you continue with the patents, patent volume by sector, businesses, 85% of patents, individuals, 9%. Vinnie, watch this.

• 1:29:39Patrick Bet-David?

  Out of all the patents they submit, 85% businesses, 9% individuals, 4% academia, which is what? Universities, I'm working for Yale. 1% is the US government. So guess who is creating? So what do you want to do, Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders? You guys gonna invent the next big thing? Seriously?

• 1:29:59Speaker 05

  And you know where some of our greatest inventions came from?

• 1:30:01Patrick Bet-David?

  Where is that?

• 1:30:02Speaker 05

  NASA. Some of the greatest inventions and.

• 1:30:05Patrick Bet-David?

  And you know who stopped funding for NASA?

• 1:30:07Speaker 05

  Yeah, and guess who the new NASA is?

• 1:30:10Patrick Bet-David?

  Elon Musk. But by the way, do you know who stopped funding for NASA? Can you pull, can you pull up on chat GPT? Who was the main guy that stopped funding money for NASA? If I'm not mistaken, this was around the Obama era where Obama said there's not a lot of benefit for us investing money into NASA. Fact check me on this, on the story. If I'm not mistaken, it was about 15 years ago, 2012, 2013, 2014, when they were kind of getting away from it. Well, my correct, I could be wrong.

• 1:30:39Tom Ellsworth?

  You are right. In 2011, the Obama administration requested to completely cancel the NASA constellation program was a $9 billion effort to return astronauts to the moon to look for minerals.

• 1:30:52Patrick Bet-David?

  It's not, it's not us doing it.

• 1:30:54Speaker 05

  You're encyclopedic.

• 1:30:55Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, it's not, well.

• 1:30:56Speaker 05

  I can't believe you're.

• 1:30:57Tom Ellsworth?

  Nostradamus.

• 1:30:58Patrick Bet-David?

  We talk to each other so much, we make ourselves smarter, but when you, when you think about that, so one guy's like, forget about seeing what's out there. The other guy's like, look, if you're not gonna do it, I'm gonna do it. That's blue ocean strategy. I see an opportunity, I go with it. So I hope kids see this. The world's a better place if a million kids watch and saying, I want to be the next Elon Musk. And you fail miserably and you just become a billionaire. Okay? And you don't become a trillionaire because somebody is sitting out there. I'm having this conversation. Who am I talking to this weekend? That's also, okay, yeah, we're on a flight with a very well-known lawyer. And we're going out there and the, and the conversation came about a few, this, this guy represents everybody. I don't want to say anything. I don't want anything to come out on what this conversation was about.

• 1:31:40Patrick Bet-David?

  And he says Elon Musk issues with father, Jeff Bezos adopted, Steve Jobs, adopted by an Armenian lady that adopted Steve Jobs, by the way. I don't know if you know this or not.

• 1:31:51Tom Ellsworth?

  I remember.

• 1:31:52Patrick Bet-David?

  All of these pains that they went through and then they eventually become what? Imagine all that pain you must go through as a kid to be able to handle building such big things. And behind closed doors, Vinny, like, you know, what's the hardest part about doing something big that some of these guys are doing? Being able to handle the constant scrutiny? So imagine how many people put on Elon Musk that they were working hard for him. Imagine he's like, no, guys, we gotta work hard. We're gonna go, this guy's out of his freaking mind. So imagine the first Falcon fails, the second one fails, the third one fails, the fourth one fails. Imagine you're on your staff. And you just lost 200 of your employees. And they're all talking shit to convince the other 400 to quit. The other 800 to quit.

• 1:32:37Patrick Bet-David?

  And they're saying, dude, this guy's not gonna be able to pull this off. If the US government stopped funding NASA, why do you think that is? They know something he doesn't know. You're banking on a guy more than you're banking on NASA? And the guys that stuck around, guess what they said? Yes, we are. Rich. We're doing that. That's exactly what we're doing. And then their lives change. What any, by the way. There's an old TED Talks video where the guy gets up. Have you guys ever seen this guy when the first guy starts dancing? Humberto, I know for a fact, as a guy that knows all the videos on YouTube, I know for a fact you know that video. It's a video of a guy that's at a park. Out in the field. And he starts dancing in the field. And he's dancing by himself. And you know the types of people that don't know how to dance. They're just kinda dancing like this. And he's doing one of these things. And then all of a sudden. Everybody started.

• 1:33:20Patrick Bet-David?

  And then all of a sudden, one guy joins him. And the one guy that joins him, I was like, who the hell is gonna dance with that guy? And one guy just starts going out and starts. We're all gonna dance with you, Tom. And then within two minutes, there's a hundred people that are, this is it. This is like the famous clip that went viral 20 years ago. Go ahead, watch this. Sometimes this is you entrepreneurs. Look at that guy. I don't know if we would qualify that guy as a professional dancer. Can you lower the audio a little bit so we don't get flagged for the music? He's just doing his thing. 99% of people watching this guy are saying this guy is high, drunk, or crazy, or going to a mental hospital. But the first guy joins him. There we go. And this guy also doesn't have a clue what he's doing. Maybe he's got a little bit better. Let's go, brother, let's do this thing. He's the first believer.

• 1:34:04Patrick Bet-David?

  I believe in this crazy guy. I believe in him. Do your hands like this. If you can fast forward 30 seconds. Bring in the home team. Fast forward 30 seconds, watch what happened. Keep going, keep going, still nobody, look at this. Now, we got a third person. Look at that. He's rolling. Now you got a crowd. 10. But you know what? 20. Here she comes. You know what the biggest part about this is, John, I'm gonna come to you. You know what's the biggest part about this? How long can you go by yourself before that first true believer shows up? Man, it is the hardest thing to do in life. John, final thoughts?

• 1:34:36Speaker 05

  Final thoughts. Number one, that clip reminded me when I was a little boy, I'd go to my uncle's farm. And we were picking tobacco. And I'd see these cows in a field. And I'd see one, one cow start to trot up the top of the hill. The bull. And then another cow would barely trot up to the hill. And then all of a sudden, they kind of started picking up speed and before it, they would all run to the top of the field. And then you get to the top of the field and they look around and they go, what the fuck are we running for? What are we doing up here? We have no fucking idea. We just, he started, he started running. I don't even know what I'm doing though, man. So at the end of the day, at the end of the day, a lot of us are cows.

• 1:35:20Speaker 05

  Last thing about the book, I write a chapter about, this is Elon Musk. To find luck, the best luck, if you have the balls to make failure your friend. Those lessons in failure is what separates Elon Musk from the rest of us. Fail, learn, fail, learn, fail, learn, fail, trillionaire.

• 1:35:45Patrick Bet-David?

  That's right. Crazy.

• 1:35:47Speaker 05

  Yeah, I mean, so, so, I mean, think about the failures that he's had and the people who walked away from him not believing. And so that's, that's what I would tell Elizabeth Warren.

• 1:35:58Speaker 04

  And mind you, Elizabeth Warren and the Bernie Sanders, it's always, by the way, and I think it's, it's all political, obviously. These are the same people that are probably making that tweet from a private jet and going to one of his three million, million dollar homes where he's like, no, no. He's trying to BS and mind you, it's all, and Adam said this a while ago and he said it multiple times. This is the future, John, of the Democratic Party. It's, hey, the rich, it's the socialism, it's the communism. It's the rich are too rich. Let's take it all and just give it to us. Meanwhile, they're the rich ones.

• 1:36:30Patrick Bet-David?

  Vinny, you know how important it is that the guy got this deal done? Let me tell you why. Because oil is what? Seventy-six dollars. If you can pull up to see what oil is right now, I don't know, whatever the numbers, guys in the back, if you guys can pull that up to see where it's at. So oil drops to seventy-six. How long will it take for us to see the reflection at the gas station? I don't know. One week, two weeks, four weeks, six weeks, you're gonna see it, right? It's gonna take a minute to get it.

• 1:36:53Speaker 05

  Well, the dealers will gouge for a while.

• 1:36:55Patrick Bet-David?

  The dealers will gouge for a while, but just like capitalism.

• 1:36:57Speaker 05

  Like a hurricane.

• 1:36:58Patrick Bet-David?

  But just like capitalism, typically if you ever see a gas station. There's another gas station across the street. All I have to do is 10 cents lower. I'm like, hey, I'm making money. Prices are coming down.

• 1:37:06Speaker 05

  I used to own Shell gas stations and you know, when there's a hurricane, you see these people out by the airport. They didn't, they did not lower there. So the people need to watch for the gougers. They're going to be saying, oh, this is still a problem.

• 1:37:18Patrick Bet-David?

  But I think the gougers are going to lose customers.

• 1:37:19Speaker 05

  The gougers, what the, what the customers need to do is look at those numbers on the gas. Cause you, by law, you gotta post.

• 1:37:25Patrick Bet-David?

  John, I'm convinced you're Armenian. I don't think you're American. I think there's an Armenian.

• 1:37:30Adam Sosnick?

  I'm more Iranian.

• 1:37:32Speaker 05

  I think Jewish because uh, I've always thought I was somehow Jewish and one day years ago, my, I'm asleep. Taking a nap and my daughter shakes me and says, daddy, wake up. I said, why? She says, you're Jewish. I said, what do you mean? She says, I'm on ancestry.com. Your great, great, great grandfather. His name was Saul Morgan.

• 1:37:56Patrick Bet-David?

  Oh, wow.

• 1:37:56Speaker 05

  I go, I'm a Jew.

• 1:37:59Adam Sosnick?

  Well, welcome to the tribe, my friend. Welcome to the tribe. We love having you.

• 1:38:04Patrick Bet-David?

  I like Saul Rosenberg.

• 1:38:05Speaker 05

  Well, I think, I think it was Saul Morgan. I think it was Saul Morgenstein when they first came over.

• 1:38:11Adam Sosnick?

  That's why you're such a good storyteller. Good storyteller gene.

• 1:38:14Patrick Bet-David?

  But you know, you know what is crazy as we're talking about all this stuff to Kashi. Whether the billionaire wealth tax will be on or not, look what happened to it all of a sudden within two days. Did you guys see this? Can you zoom in a little bit? It just dropped from.

• 1:38:26Adam Sosnick?

  Forty to sixty, forty to twenty.

• 1:38:27Patrick Bet-David?

  There's another one that's out there. I think you have another one. There's another one that's a bigger number than 458. Uh, but you can see this one. It dropped dramatically in a big way. So we'll see what happened there. Let me get to next story. Next story I want to get to is. New York Times has a story last week because of a book that's coming out called regime change or something like that by these two New York time. Uh, uh, writers, which by the way, again, a lot of people who put a lot of credibility behind these writers, you have to also know that. Some of the work they did back in the days, people were giving them criticism, saying that these guys were also behind. The Russia collusion. So having said that, last week's story went viral. This is part two of the story of New York Times, which by the way, if there is a publication.

• 1:39:11Patrick Bet-David?

  That you would never guess would write an article that would automatically show that the president had nothing to do with Epstein. You tell me what newspaper you think would be number one on that list, Vinny? New York Times?

• 1:39:22Adam Sosnick?

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:39:23Patrick Bet-David?

  Would it be New York Post? No. Would it be any?

• 1:39:27Adam Sosnick?

  The most liberal paper out there.

• 1:39:28Patrick Bet-David?

  New York Times would be number one. So then this article comes out, "The Untold Story of Jeffrey Epstein's Death." So now you go through, this is part two. Part one was JD Vance, Tucker Carlson, the conversation, Dan Bongino, they told not Susie Wiles. That's what it was. Part two is more about what happened to Epstein. So in this Epstein story that they're going through, they talk about how Bannon and him are communicating. Epstein appeared shocked. He managed to send one last message to Bannon saying, "All canceled." Bannon wrote back immediately, "You are not coming in?" Question mark. There was no reply. The FBI agent drove Epstein to Manhattan. He has two questions. "Is this sex trafficking? Is this about underage?" It was. "Oh, this is bad," he said aloud when he was getting booked for federal custody. "This is really bad."

• 1:40:12Patrick Bet-David?

  He's whispering to himself and other FBI agents can hear him while he's talking to himself. And the story continues. On one part here, on page eight, it says, "We went to court to win access to document that had been described as a suicide note written by Epstein in jail before an earlier apparent attempt to take his own life, which was hidden from public and investigators for years." So apparently this guy tried to kill himself multiple times. "We obtained about a dozen pages of other notes, handwritten notes by Epstein in jail that were also previously unseen, including some in which he tried and failed to come up with significant information he might have on Donald Trump to offer to prosecutors." And he couldn't find anything. When he continues, "In addition to this, we were told by former cellmate, Epstein had

• 1:40:57Patrick Bet-David?

  more than once previously unreported attempt to craft a noose. Epstein's death and whose account circumstantially supported the conclusion that Epstein died by hanging himself. Even his friends knew that were in prison with him." And then they talk about what happened with the surveillance camera being down, the 24-hour surveillance camera, the unit known as 10-South had held some of the most violent people Ever, we're talking El Chapo, we're talking mafia hitmen, we're talking terrorists tied to Al Qaeda, Bernie Madoff during his own pre-trial detention a decade earlier. So this is not like a place that we knew about this already, but there was multiple news. His roommate, Tartiglioni, a 51-year police officer, was waiting trial on federal charge

• 1:41:40Patrick Bet-David?

  of killing four men, and one of which he killed by strangling with a zip tie. So he knew how to create a noose. So he had the right roommate that wanted to teach him how to do that. He told us that Epstein returned to their cell from the court that day. He asked abruptly, "How do you make a noose?" He asks his roommate. In the days that followed, Tartiglioni said, "He caught Epstein preparing for suicide twice. Once, Tartiglioni said, "He noticed Epstein try to tie a sheet to the gate over the cell window. Another time, he woke to Epstein standing in the dark, looking a little suspicious, and discovered a noose hidden under his mattress." That's what his roommate found. And it continues. This is big. They listed as he seethed about the former friends who were now publicly

• 1:42:25Patrick Bet-David?

  distancing themselves from him, like Leslie Wexner, who gave him that $77 million property, biggest private residence in Manhattan for gift zero, and tried to figure out whether he had any leverage to use against former associates like Bill Gates. Once they heard him mutter, "I can't do this." Epstein was particularly preoccupied with that he might have on Donald Trump, who was then serving his first term in office, jodding on a legal path. He returned to the president again and again, trying to dredge up anything to offer prosecutors, but his scribble said Trump is a total count artist, smoke and mirror, and never had money. That's all he could find. Nothing to do with him, nothing to do with

• 1:43:08Patrick Bet-David?

  him, let me see what page this is, with girls. So then this continues. These stories keep going and going and going. "I can't take jail. Put me on house arrest. I'm either going to hurt myself or someone else is going to hurt me. Get me out of here," Epstein told one of his lawyers. And Tartiglioni heard that. Then there's a couple other guys named Reyes in prison with him, Efren Reyes. The guard were on eggshells around Epstein Reyes notice he was always making demands can you imagine Epstein was telling the guards what to get him and then he would say if they did not comply he would make a show of writing their names down telling them that he would talk to his lawyers the people were afraid of him because

• 1:43:45Adam Sosnick?

  you don't want to get me some catch up gotcha

• 1:43:47Patrick Bet-David?

  Epstein said to him to this one guy named Robert Adams that was decent to him says thank you for treating me with dignity and humanity this is Robert Adams who was treating him respectfully and then once they saw him examining a computer cable Epstein noticing their attention reassured them that he was too much of a coward to kill himself mostly faithfully he made an unusual request he told them he wanted to update his will and then Reyes told them don't try to kill yourself in this cell I don't want to wake up and find you dead anyways you go through these stories that is out there one of them was nearly half of the system cameras that were there while working real time were not recording so no funding no staff the cameras are not recording as a result to the cameras in the SHU were recording in the hours before Epstein's body was discovered

• 1:44:33Patrick Bet-David?

  and if you remember that one of the workers there got $5,000 deposit in his bank account a couple of couple of weeks prior to that just so you know there's no connections to it they found that there was zero connections

• 1:44:45Patrick Bet-David?

  between the two Noel activated an alarm Thomas heaved Epstein to the floor administrate chest compressions breathe Epstein breathe Noel recalled him shouting and then we're going to be in so much trouble one of the guards said that we're gonna be in trouble so they knew something was gonna happen here the F and MCC has one F and job to keep our defendants safe and they can't even get that right with their famous inmate so anyways that goes on y'all murdered him y'all murdered him while these guys are walking by the guards all the inmates and saying y'all murdered Epstein y'all murdered Epstein so this got nastier and nastier and obviously the roommate Reyes didn't make it he died of covid in 2020 this was so New York Times couldn't get to him but the main premise of this story

• 1:45:29Patrick Bet-David?

  and respect to New York Times they went right to it you know what it was the entire time the guy Epstein who knows everything of who was involved and who wasn't involved tried to do everything in his power to destroy Trump found nothing which you know what this New York Times article shows that Trump had nothing to do with Epstein There is not a better article for the president than this year. So June 14th is his birthday. So in other words, New York Times Birthday President to Donald Trump is this article here.

• 1:46:01Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah, it's a love letter to Trump.

• 1:46:03Patrick Bet-David?

  That's the gift to the president to say, hey, as much as we hate writing this, he had nothing to do with it. All the other stories, it is what it is. But I'll come to you, John, because you're from President Clinton, got accused of being on the island, doing all that other stuff. How do you process this story, this article?

• 1:48:05Speaker 05

  Well, I think it was written by Maggie Haberman.

• 1:48:07Patrick Bet-David?

  It was. You're right. It was.

• 1:48:09Speaker 05

  She's been his, you know, nemesis for a long time. So that's

• 1:48:13Patrick Bet-David?

  Russia collusion.

• 1:48:14Speaker 05

  Starting with Russia. But and she's smart. She's very smart. But here's what I take from it all. Howard Lutnick said Epstein was a blackmailer. That's what Epstein did. He blackmailed. You know, what, why was Leslie Wexler paying him $77 million? What did Leslie Wexler do allegedly to pay this guy who has no expertise at all? He was trying to shake down Bill Gates. I mean, this guy was a blackmailer. That's how he got rich. He got shit on

• 1:48:54Speaker 05

  people, got the film. If you're facing what he's facing, and you're a blackmailer, and your one get out of jail card is Donald Trump, you're getting out of jail. You're going to go ahead and say it if you have it. I mean, the people in the mafia flip and they're like, you know, that's a rare thing. But he didn't flip. And I think he didn't flip because he didn't have the goods. Now, what do I believe? I believe that Trump's got friends that are tied into all of this. I mean, if Bill Gates, I mean, if Bill Gates

• 1:49:37Speaker 05

  is being, you know, shook down, who else could be shook down? And the thing about Trump is this, Trump demands loyalty. I mean, if you're not 100%, you're 0%. But he also returns that loyalty. And so I think that there are people that he knows that are in those files, and he don't want to hurt them. But it got away from them. The whole narrative just got away from them.

• 1:50:04Patrick Bet-David?

  Benny, for us, we cover this a lot, right? There was a little bit of skepticism with everybody at this table with Epstein when the story was coming out. How do you, as somebody that followed this very closely, you watch all the documentaries, you watch everything. How are you processing this story here?

• 1:50:19Speaker 04

  I think it's, which we've known, it's vindication that as much as everybody on the left and even some people on the right, and we know who they are, they were like, no, he was with underage girls, and it's all been nonsense. And I saw them on the Viewpad with J.D. Vance, and they're like, no, what's her name, Mavara was like, no, he was best friends with Epstein. No, no, Donald Trump is a billionaire in New York, hanging out with everybody, knew everybody, literally, everybody hung out. The moment he found out that this guy was a creep, what did he do? He excommunicated him and he got him out of his, was it Mar-a-Lago?

• 1:50:56Patrick Bet-David?

  Yes, Mar-a-Lago.

• 1:50:57Speaker 04

  He kicked him out, okay? My problem is-

• 1:51:00Patrick Bet-David?

  I'm mistaken, 08-ish, I don't know the exact time, can you pull up when-

• 1:51:04Speaker 04

  When they were finally, they were trying to recruit girls from-

• 1:51:07Speaker 05

  Before 09, he went to jail in 09.

• 1:51:09Patrick Bet-David?

  So 08 is what it was.

• 1:51:10Speaker 04

  So 08, the one thing that bothers me, and John, that's one big thing that I have a problem with. I don't think the president was doing anything with underage girls or any of that nonsense. What bothers me is, is the friendship part, because I have a hu- my biggest problem is, as a Christian, anything that has to do with children, to me, is off limits. I don't care who you're trying to protect, I don't care what the hell, like, and Adam, we've had this talk before about, you want the whole system to fall down if there's children? Yes, because I don't think God is sitting there going, yeah, they need to negotiate. Yeah, that girl was raped, yeah, that little kid was probably raped and then murdered because they don't want any witnesses. I have a big problem with that part of it.

• 1:51:50Speaker 04

  And to add to it, when you have a Pam Bondi who came in after Alex Acosta as Attorney General in Florida, she becomes the main person, the number one law enforcement officer in the country, that's not by accident, and she ruined the whole thing. She bungled this whole Epstein thing on purpose when you had those freaking influencers coming out, like, yeah, we did. Did it as if we want.

• 1:52:11Speaker 05

  I don't think on purpose.

• 1:52:12Speaker 04

  No, no, I don't think so either.

• 1:52:13Speaker 05

  She didn't do it on purpose.

• 1:52:15Speaker 04

  She didn't do anything on purpose.

• 1:52:16Patrick Bet-David?

  I don't know. John has a relationship with Bondi. One of John's lawyers was a lawyer that he, she was in love with back in the days. I think you kind of talked about that last time.

• 1:52:24Speaker 05

  He named her the Paminator when we, we would always go out drinking with the Paminator.

• 1:52:29Speaker 04

  So here's my question though, and then she's caught on a camera in a restaurant saying, we have tens of thousands of videos of these underage kids. Epstein and the whole crew. And my thing is, why would the government, and I don't put this on Trump, I put this on all these people that work in the government. Why are you covering up? Why are you editing 30 second videos? Why are you doing it? I know Trump didn't run on the Epstein files, but now that we're here. The, the lie to us is, hey, we can't release this because of the victims. No, no, no, you can redact because they love redacting. Take the names of these girls or these young boys, whoever that they were doing. Oh, and I want to know the Wesley, the Wexner, all the Bill Gates.

• 1:53:08Speaker 04

  Give us the names of these people so justice can be done. Okay. Period. That's it. I want justice to be done because these kids.

• 1:53:16Patrick Bet-David?

  But you, you like how Blanch is handling things versus how Bondi was doing.

• 1:53:20Speaker 04

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:53:21Speaker 05

  But Bondi, but Bondi is saying now that Blanch was handling it all along. If you read her testimony. When she was brought in to testify a few weeks ago, she said, look, Blanch was handling Epstein, not me.

• 1:53:35Patrick Bet-David?

  John, it sounds like you're defending her a little bit.

• 1:53:37Speaker 05

  I'm not defending her. I'm stating facts. She, she is saying that she did not handle the Epstein matter.

• 1:53:46Patrick Bet-David?

  True. The, the, the, did you read the first New York Times story that's about Bondi or no?

• 1:53:50Speaker 05

  Yes, yes.

• 1:53:51Patrick Bet-David?

  So the first one puts a lot of the onus on Bondi and a lot of the friction where Bongino said, if you don't fire her, I'm out of here. And he left and they had to kind of a hundred thousand dollars.

• 1:54:01Speaker 05

  Screaming at each other.

• 1:54:02Patrick Bet-David?

  Right. They were screaming at each other. So. A part of it is Bondi's the one that came out and said, there's a lot of bad things on those tapes. There's a lot of bad things on this. She kind of said a little bit too much.

• 1:54:12Speaker 05

  And then Suzie Wiles got pissed off about that. I mean, you remember that?

• 1:54:16Patrick Bet-David?

  Right, I do, I do. So, you know, who knows what happened here? Of course.

• 1:54:21Speaker 05

  Pam was not ready for prime time on this issue. I mean, just was not ready. I don't think there's anything malicious, I'll say that in defense of her. But in, I don't think she was ready for this moment.

• 1:54:36Speaker 04

  But it almost feels though, does it almost feel like, out of all people, nobody here, did anybody ever hear of Pam Bondi before she became?

• 1:54:43Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, Pam Bondi is very powerful in Florida.

• 1:54:46Speaker 05

  Pam Bondi.

• 1:54:47Patrick Bet-David?

  Very well known.

• 1:54:48Speaker 05

  And the first.

• 1:54:49Patrick Bet-David?

  And respected.

• 1:54:50Speaker 05

  And by the way, and how did they, and she also had the Trump stakes or the Trump college case and she dismissed that and took, and he paid a very small fine. So, they made friends early on and she was very loyal to him.

• 1:55:07Speaker 04

  But loyal, but to become the number one law enforcement officer in the United States and it was very clear.

• 1:55:13Speaker 05

  Only after Matt Gaetz.

• 1:55:14Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:55:15Speaker 05

  Don't forget him. He thought he was gonna be the Attorney General.

• 1:55:19Adam Sosnick?

  I have a different opinion as most people. I'll sum up my viewpoint as quick as possible. You know the story regarding Epstein? You know when someone catches a fish? And the fish was this big. And then every time you tell the story, no, the fish was this big. No, the fish was this big. It was the biggest fish I've ever seen. That's what I think happened on the Epstein story. And the fish got bigger and bigger and bigger and then he died. And then the fish became the biggest fish we've ever seen in the history of the world and Jeffrey Epstein was the devil. Here's what I think. Jeffrey Epstein was a world-class creep and blackmailer. I don't know what he was doing. I don't know who he was working for. Neither do you.

• 1:56:02Adam Sosnick?

  But the story got bigger and bigger and bigger and then a movie came out and then a docu-series came out. And everyone had their opinion on this and entitled to do so because the weird sex underage thing on the island? Total creep. Here's the part that people don't really want to talk about though, if you really want to be honest. In any high level of society, I'm talking the who's who, the what's what's. Who are the people that make that society? It's men. And no matter who you are in life, the richest, most powerful elite men, do you know what they actually like at the end of the day? Hanging out, have a good time with their buddies and having beautiful women around.

• 1:56:44Adam Sosnick?

  And Jeffrey Epstein knew this. And he knew if I can bring a lot of women around to all these rich elite men, who, let's face it, Bill Gates, a lot of weird creeps that are not good around women, presidents of countries, prime ministers that can't be seen in public. They go to this island, it's a safe space. I think these, most of these people just liked having a good time and pretty women. What Epstein liked was underage girls. And I know there's a lot of weird stories, but for the most part, they were 16-year-old girls and $200 massages. And it's weird and it's creepy and whatever he gets, he deserved. Allegedly, he was studying how to commit suicide because he knew he was a creep.

• 1:57:29Adam Sosnick?

  Bottom line is this, I live in Miami, I've been in the hospitality nightlife world my whole life. Do you know how many 19-year-old girls apply for jobs at clubs? And the club owner has to go, yeah, I mean, I can't have you serving alcohol. You're not 21. Oh, no, I'll be 21 soon. How many women who are 18, 19, 20 that try to get into 21-plus clubs? The reality is, we don't want to address the fact that women in many capacities are a currency. And I don't believe in treating women that way. Hear me out.

• 1:58:00Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:58:01Adam Sosnick?

  Epstein did that to women and some women volunteered to be, you know, part of the show. So it's a double-edged sword. He was a total creep, but he wasn't the devil. And men like women, that's it.

• 1:58:14Speaker 05

  But who was not the devil?

• 1:58:16Adam Sosnick?

  Jeffrey Epstein.

• 1:58:16Speaker 05

  He was the devil.

• 1:58:17Adam Sosnick?

  But like the literal devil?

• 1:58:19Speaker 05

  Well, he was a devil.

• 1:58:20Patrick Bet-David?

  Well, you know, you haven't seen the interview. Well, you've never seen the interview? You ever seen the interview?

• 1:58:25Speaker 05

  And by the way.

• 1:58:26Patrick Bet-David?

  You ever seen the interview?

• 1:58:27Adam Sosnick?

  When they asked him, are you the devil?

• 1:58:29Patrick Bet-David?

  Have you seen the reaction?

• 1:58:30Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah, of course.

• 1:58:31Patrick Bet-David?

  Bannon asked him the question.

• 1:58:32Adam Sosnick?

  Yes.

• 1:58:33Patrick Bet-David?

  Have you ever seen anybody react that way to a question that's simple? And then he ends there. You know what it reminded me of? You ever seen a movie Fallen?

• 1:58:41Adam Sosnick?

  Yes.

• 1:58:41Patrick Bet-David?

  Following with Denzel Washington. Time is on my side.

• 1:58:46Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah.

• 1:58:46Patrick Bet-David?

  And he goes like this and he's just moving and he's talking to him, the spirit. It, it, this is, this is it. I just want you to see the body language when he's asked, are you the devil?

• 1:58:55Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah.

• 1:58:56Patrick Bet-David?

  Watch this. Go ahead.

• 1:58:57Speaker 06

  My case. Is your money dirty money? If you live. I just asked a question. Your money dirty money? No, it's not. So, in fact. Why is it not dirty money? Because I, I earned it. My, a hard. But you, you earned it. I earned it legally. We went back to this before. You earned it. You earned it advising the worst people in the world, right? That do enormous bad things.

• 1:59:24Adam Sosnick?

  Is that Steve Bannon?

• 1:59:25Speaker 06

  And just to make more money. So, if, I, well, instead of asking me the question, should you take the money? Because I think it's a legitimate question. You think it's a legitimate question? Yes, no question. Because what I, because I think about, I think you have, ethics is always a complicated subject, but I can tell you that with the money I gave to help try to eradicate polio in Pakistan and India.

• 1:59:49Adam Sosnick?

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:59:49Patrick Bet-David?

  Fast forward.

• 1:59:50Adam Sosnick?

  I think it's towards the end, guys.

• 1:59:53Speaker 06

  Polio.

• 1:59:53Adam Sosnick?

  I think it's towards, because he gets up after.

• 1:59:55Speaker 06

  If we told them.

• 1:59:55Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah.

• 1:59:56Speaker 06

  That the worst.

• 1:59:57Adam Sosnick?

  He gets up.

• 1:59:57Speaker 06

  I understand you don't like problems. Do you ask money for my children? Did they know where the money came from? The devil himself said, I think if you told them. A hundred percent. I told him the devil. A hundred percent. The devil. Himself. The devil himself said, I'm going to exchange some dollars for your, for your child's life. Do you think you're the devil himself? I know, but I, I do have a good mirror. It's a serious question. I'm sorry. Do you think you're the devil himself? I don't know. Why would you say that?

• 2:00:24Adam Sosnick?

  Starts itching.

• 2:00:24Patrick Bet-David?

  And then he finishes the meeting right afterwards.

• 2:00:27Adam Sosnick?

  So, how do you interpret that? Hold on. How do you interpret that?

• 2:00:30Patrick Bet-David?

  Have you ever seen somebody answer a question like that?

• 2:00:33Adam Sosnick?

  Oh, I think he knows that he's done a lot of bad things.

• 2:00:35Patrick Bet-David?

  Do you know what George Soros said in an LA Times interview in 2004? I think it's the 2004 article, could have been in 98. Can you, can you type in George Soros, LA Times, godlike? Okay?

• 2:00:48Adam Sosnick?

  Mm-hmm.

• 2:00:48Patrick Bet-David?

  Where he says, I, I, I fant, I fancy myself as a god. And he says, and I used to think of that, but now I actually understand what it is to be like that. Who answers a question like that? These are very weird people that answer.

• 2:01:03Adam Sosnick?

  People with god complex.

• 2:01:04Patrick Bet-David?

  What year is this article, by the way? What year is this article that was written? The god who carries. Two thousand four, yeah, oh, four article. So you, you, you just, you just gotta know, there, there are some people like this. That are comfortable.

• 2:01:16Speaker 05

  John Lennon said he was bigger than Jesus Christ. He might have been.

• 2:01:20Speaker 04

  And can I say, can I just say one thing with that? And Adam, Adam, this is, this has been.

• 2:01:24Adam Sosnick?

  But are we, are we literally arguing that he is the devil?

• 2:01:26Patrick Bet-David?

  No, you're arguing he's the devil. Remember, when we talked a week ago.

• 2:01:29Speaker 05

  Devil like, devil like.

• 2:01:30Patrick Bet-David?

  Adam, Vinny said something about demon, these demons. He said, these are not demons. But let me tell you, if he called Epstein a demon, I would agree with him. There's zero hesitation. Yeah.

• 2:01:40Adam Sosnick?

  Whatever, whatever label we wanna put on really, really, really bad people.

• 2:01:44Speaker 05

  What I think, I think people would be very surprised about are the number of real life pedophiles in this world. They're just programmed that way. People go to fish in Costa Rica. And, and they're fishing for something else.

• 2:02:02Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah.

• 2:02:02Speaker 05

  People go to Asia, to Thailand, Bangkok, Vietnam. To, to do what? There is so much of that out there. Argentina to bird hunt. No, there is, it is way bigger. The appetite for younger people. Than you could ever imagine in this world. I mean, there are just a lot of sick fuck.

• 2:02:28Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah, we saw the sound of freedom. We get it. I mean, I fully agree with you.

• 2:02:32Speaker 05

  And, and the richer, and the rich people have the, they have the ways to go.

• 2:02:36Speaker 04

  That's what it is. It's, it's the rich people that have the means to make it not happen, Adam. I'd love you to death for you.

• 2:02:41Adam Sosnick?

  But it's not just the rich.

• 2:02:43Speaker 05

  No, it's not just the rich, but they have the easiest way to go to.

• 2:02:46Adam Sosnick?

  With anything, right?

• 2:02:47Speaker 05

  With anything, yes. Gonna go bird hunting in Costa Rica. Gonna go.

• 2:02:52Adam Sosnick?

  A lot of weird, creepy people.

• 2:02:53Speaker 05

  One time I said a guy, he was down there, they were raising a lot of hell and he, you know what he said? He go, I said, what do you show, what do you show your wife? When you do you show her picture? She says, yeah, we show them, we show ourselves out fishing. What we do is the first day there, we take about five pictures with different shirts on the boat. So this is day one, this is day two, this is day three, and then they go fishing for real.

• 2:03:15Speaker 04

  And this is the thing, Adam, and I love you to death, you, since the beginning of this, you have downplayed this to just Epstein was a creep. And, and that's it, like, he was just a creep, he did creepy thing. You couldn't be more wrong.

• 2:03:27Speaker 05

  I downplayed him.

• 2:03:28Speaker 04

  No, no, yes you have, yes, let me, I'll let you talk for freaking five minutes. You've downplayed Jeffrey Epstein's situation from day one because it's like a whatever story and you said, eh, people are gonna forget about it. It's not just a creep like he's on to catch a predator and they caught him and this is a freaking, Adam, the, the web that he created. And who he worked for. When Alex Acosta said, when they tried to try him, he worked for intelligence, could be CIA, MI6, Mossad. Probably all together, Adam. You don't invite people to this island, all these rich, powerful people. You don't put cameras in every crevice to get all of them, so you have dirt on them. And what bothers me, Adam, when it's people like leaders or billionaires like Bill Gates or Ehud Barak, where these people are shaping the world with their decisions.

• 2:04:13Speaker 04

  And you have dirt on them? You changed the future of the world. And it's not just, okay, he was a creep and he was hooking up. He was taking advantage of these girls. He had Ghislaine Maxwell, whose father worked for freaking, who was a huge Mossad agent. All these MI6, all this CIA, everybody working together to have dirt on people. I think it was a monumental, it was mountains bigger than just a creep that I'd just like to hook up with underage girls. I, I don't like the downplaying of it because it's so big, Adam. This is the JFK moment of our situation. We're not gonna know anything for years because these powerful people that, uh, Mr. Morgan was talking about are so powerful, Adam, that everything would fail because these disgusting demons that I call them and packet cosign.

• 2:04:55Speaker 04

  These people are okay with, Adam, hooking up with underage girls and having sex with, and Adam.

• 2:05:03Speaker 04

  Tom, which Bible verse is it? Hold on, Matthew, chapter 18, verse 6, Adam. And this is where Vincent O'Shaughnessy, and I know me and Pat had this conversation. I pray for these people. I pray for their souls, Adam, because guess what? Hell is hot. And unless they come and have that Christ moment in their heart, Adam, that's another conversation we get into. In their heart, it is over for them.

• 2:05:25Patrick Bet-David?

  I want to do one more story before we wrap up.

• 2:05:26Speaker 04

  Because justice is not going to be happening here, but it will in the afterlife.

• 2:05:30Patrick Bet-David?

  One more story before we wrap up.

• 2:05:31Adam Sosnick?

  I'll just respond real quick.

• 2:05:32Patrick Bet-David?

  If it's more than 10 seconds, I will cut you off.

• 2:05:34Adam Sosnick?

  There's people that downplay Epstein, but there's people that upplay Epstein.

• 2:05:39Speaker 04

  Oh, no, give me a break.

• 2:05:40Adam Sosnick?

  And a lot of people have a simplistic version of life that say Epstein, Jewish, Gaza genocide?

• 2:05:46Speaker 04

  No.

• 2:05:46Adam Sosnick?

  Kill the Jews.

• 2:05:47Speaker 04

  No, no.

• 2:05:47Adam Sosnick?

  There's a lot of people.

• 2:05:49Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 2:05:49Adam Sosnick?

  So there's, as much as you want to say people are downplaying it, people want to upplay Epstein as if he's the devil.

• 2:05:54Patrick Bet-David?

  Listen, you said this is not even a top 20 issue for you. This is not a top 10 issue for you. You've said that before in the podcast. Very simple.

• 2:06:01Adam Sosnick?

  I agree.

• 2:06:01Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, great.

• 2:06:02Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah.

• 2:06:02Speaker 04

  That doesn't mean I don't have an opinion on it.

• 2:06:04Patrick Bet-David?

  No, no, of course, but now it is a big issue that New York Times writes about it a couple of times. And the president has vindicated, but it doesn't mean some people that were on the list like this did end up looking good for Lutnik, a couple of other people. And Pam Bondi.

• 2:06:17Speaker 04

  It looks great for Trump, though, right?

• 2:06:18Patrick Bet-David?

  It looks very good.

• 2:06:19Speaker 05

  I agree. Why did, why did Lutnik say he was never on the island? Why would he have said that?

• 2:06:24Patrick Bet-David?

  That's a mistake.

• 2:06:24Speaker 05

  I mean, but that's a big mistake.

• 2:06:26Patrick Bet-David?

  It's a big mistake.

• 2:06:27Speaker 05

  Because it's always the lie.

• 2:06:29Patrick Bet-David?

  It's a big mistake. All you have to say is you were, here's what happened with that.

• 2:06:32Speaker 05

  Right.

• 2:06:32Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, yeah. So let me get to the next story. I want to do a couple of stories and John, I'll let you choose whichever one of these stories you want to do. I got Chick-fil-A Jersey Mike's or I got Gladiator 2. Which one do you want to go to?

• 2:06:44Speaker 05

  Jersey Mike's.

• 2:06:44Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, let's go to that one. So let me read that story too.

• 2:06:46Speaker 04

  By the way, let's order Jersey Mike's for lunch, guys. Let's go John Morgan's house.

• 2:06:49Patrick Bet-David?

  So let me go through, thank you for that, Adam. So, so let me go through the story. Fast food giant dethroned as customer study crowns America's new favorite restaurant chain.

  First thing I will tell you about Jersey Mike's is my wife, Ultima, is Jersey Mike's all the way. She loves Jersey Mike's. That's cool. You know what I've been fascinated with? We'll gear into a little bit into money. The new billionaires in this country own a bunch of sub shops. And you know how they do it? Scaling. Jersey Mike's guy's a billionaire, the guy that did Subway, DeLuca's a billionaire, the firehouse sub fireman from Jacksonville are billionaires. Jimmy John's is. John's, yeah. And then you flip over to the chicken people. Raising Canes is a billionaire.

• 2:10:52Speaker 05

  It has been fascinating to me, the wealth that's been made from chicken tenders and subs. And you never would have thought it. And it's all about scaling. Chick-fil-A is the gold standard. I told people back during the COVID, if we want to get everybody vaccinated in a week. Let's just let Chick-fil-A get it done. And we would all have been vaccinated in seven days. Covid would have been ended in about six months early. So the next time, if I'm Bobby Kennedy and we have a plague, turn it over to Chick-fil-A because they'll get that shit done.

• 2:11:37Patrick Bet-David?

  By the way, who, here, are you Chick-fil-A or Jersey Mike? Can you run a poll real quick to see where people are at? It's which team you are. That's all I care about. Team Jersey Mike or Team Chick-fil-A? I'm actually curious how the audience will react to it. Where are you at?

• 2:11:50Speaker 04

  I'm a, I'm a Jersey Mike guy. I do absolutely love though, the, the Chick-fil-A customer service, whoever their management, pet leadership.

• 2:11:59Patrick Bet-David?

  Right.

• 2:12:00Speaker 04

  They're, everybody in there is freaking happy. Everybody is freaking having a good time and everybody's really nice and they're, I mean, I don't have anything bad about Jersey Mike's, but.

• 2:12:09Speaker 05

  Well, the thing about Chick-fil-A, number one, most, most franchisees only can have one store. I mean, I got a friend, Billy Fender, has got two in Tennessee, but they make you have one, I mean, they make that be your, your life. For me, the downside to Chick-fil-A is the waffle fries. So if I'm going to go to Chick-fil-A, I'm going to have to go to get my chicken sandwich and then I'm going to drive down the street and get my french fries from McDonald's.

• 2:12:38Speaker 04

  I got you.

• 2:12:39Speaker 05

  Because I, I mean, the, the, the waffle fries, now some people, are you a waffle fry guy?

• 2:12:44Speaker 04

  Not, I'm going to be honest with you, John. No, I'm not.

• 2:12:46Speaker 05

  I'm not. I don't want to lie to you, John.

• 2:12:49Speaker 04

  You know who I am not? I'm a McDonald's go inside and I say, hey, listen, because my blood pressure, can you make me fries without the salt? They'll make you a brand new batch.

• 2:12:57Speaker 05

  Oh.

• 2:12:57Speaker 04

  Without question, that's a good idea. But John, why don't they open up like a, like a combination restaurant where it's like Chick-fil-A with the McDonald's fries sold in the same place? I mean, what are we talking?

• 2:13:07Speaker 05

  You know how we could really make some money?

• 2:13:08Speaker 04

  Let's do it.

• 2:13:09Speaker 05

  Let's have Publix sell us their sub stuff and let's go open up Public Subs because the best subs.

• 2:13:16Speaker 04

  Oh yeah.

• 2:13:16Adam Sosnick?

  There's a line.

• 2:13:18Speaker 05

  Public Subs, you can't get in.

• 2:13:19Speaker 04

  There's a line in there.

• 2:13:21Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 2:13:22Speaker 04

  I'm with it.

• 2:13:23Patrick Bet-David?

  Jersey Mike, Chick-fil-A.

• 2:13:24Tom Ellsworth?

  I'm a Jersey Mike guy. I appreciate, I love the story of the little sub shop that went big. I love that. I, I just, I've never had a situation where I felt like, well, I won't go there because it's going to be too busy. You know, because it's speed. Now, you never go into a restaurant where it's not busy because then you want to look at the letter that's stuck to the front window. See if it's a, maybe it's a C. Be like, whoops, maybe I shouldn't eat there. No, they're always quick. It's always efficient. And I just, I really appreciate it, you know, and I, you know, it's like, and you're going to say something here. I'll order my subs topless.

• 2:14:03Adam Sosnick?

  Oh.

• 2:14:04Tom Ellsworth?

  I want half the bread. I'll say no top on the bread.

• 2:14:07Adam Sosnick?

  Wow, I'm getting dirty on that sandwich.

• 2:14:09Speaker 05

  I'm getting naked.

• 2:14:10Tom Ellsworth?

  Where they cut the top off the bread. So they do it and then they put the lettuce on top and wrap it.

• 2:14:14Adam Sosnick?

  Keep going, Tom.

• 2:14:14Tom Ellsworth?

  So you can hold the bread on the, eat it like this. Because I only want half the.

• 2:14:18Speaker 05

  What just happened right there?

• 2:14:19Adam Sosnick?

  Tom just got freaky with that sandwich, Tommy.

• 2:14:22Patrick Bet-David?

  At least you're being honest about it.

• 2:14:23Speaker 05

  Turn off the lights. Remember this about bread. Eat bread, look like bread.

• 2:14:31Speaker 04

  Wow.

• 2:14:31Adam Sosnick?

  Ooh.

• 2:14:32Patrick Bet-David?

  That's a good point. Wisdom right there.

• 2:14:34Speaker 05

  Eat bread, look like.

• 2:14:35Patrick Bet-David?

  Adam, final thoughts with you.

• 2:14:37Tom Ellsworth?

  Uh, Chick-fil-A.

• 2:14:39Speaker 04

  I'm going to make it stop.

• 2:14:39Adam Sosnick?

  My answer is Chick-fil-A. I've never been in a Chick-fil-A until I started working at ValueTainment and everyone said, started calling our friend Kelly, Chick-fil-A Kelly. She always say, my pleasure, my pleasure. I said, why do they call it Chick-fil-A Kelly? They said, you've never been to a Chick-fil-A? I said, no. I walked into a Chick-fil-A. I've never been more mind blown in my life on the unreasonable hospitality and customer service. I mean, the best thing I've ever seen in my life.

• 2:15:04Speaker 05

  Let me tell you one last Chick-fil-A. One last Chick-fil-A story. One time the line was so far, it was, we were in the Home Depot parking lot. So I said, you know, it's going to be quicker to go in. So I walk into Chick-fil-A in Lake Mary and it's jammed in there. And I'm at the back of the line. And I'm at the back of the line and this girl comes from around the counter. She says, sir, come with me. Oh, I'm, I'm going to the front of the line. She took me to the front of the line. She put up there and I'm thinking, you know, she knows who I am.

• 2:15:34Adam Sosnick?

  Oh, yeah.

• 2:15:34Speaker 05

  This is fantastic. I'm getting preferential treatment. And I said, I said, I got my stuff. I'm going ahead of everybody. And she said,

• 2:15:46Speaker 05

  thank you very much. And I said, thank you very much for doing this for me. And she said, don't worry about it, sir. We do this for all of our seniors.

• 2:15:55Adam Sosnick?

  Oh, man.

• 2:15:58Adam Sosnick?

  Oh, man.

• 2:15:59Speaker 05

  And I'm like, I'm like, fuck me.

• 2:16:06Adam Sosnick?

  Brought you down a peg.

• 2:16:08Speaker 05

  I'll never go, I will never go. I will wait in the fucking I four. I'm never going in.

• 2:16:15Adam Sosnick?

  The great John Morgan.

• 2:16:18Speaker 04

  Oh, my God. I didn't know where that was going.

• 2:16:20Patrick Bet-David?

  Oh, my God, dude, I just cramped up with that.

• 2:16:23Speaker 05

  You know?

• 2:16:24Speaker 04

  Get the hell away from me. Oh, God, it's so.

  Never in sin.
