FULL TRANSCRIPT

0:00

we now have updates from Elon Musk and

0:02

VI ramaswami on what they're going to do

0:04

with Doge I can't believe this is

0:06

happening so fast and it comes at the

0:08

same time as CNN just said or CNN close

0:11

enough CNBC just had this to say new

0:15

treasury data out just now shows the

0:17

government spent $882 billion on

0:19

interest costs just in October alone

0:21

that was the first month of the new

0:23

fiscal year but that is actually an 8%

0:26

decrease from the same month a year ago

0:28

it is a reflection of lower rates not

0:30

exactly of any progress made in reducing

0:32

the nation's debt load overall for the

0:34

month treasury ran up a deficit of $121

0:37

billion on an adjusted basis not exactly

0:40

a great start for the fiscal year that

0:41

was due both to lower revenues which

0:43

were down about 19% in part because of

0:45

lower corporate taxes coming in and it

0:48

was higher spending spending was up an

0:50

adjusted 8% overall and that higher

0:52

spending was driven in part by the

0:54

Department of Education costs there for

0:56

the month were up 19% from the same

0:58

month a year ago and at Veterans Affairs

1:00

they were up 177% there and guys I want

1:03

to add we get this Glimpse at the

1:05

treasury's budget every single month but

1:06

this one does come on the same day that

1:08

we're talking about Elon Musk and this

1:10

new Department of government efficiency

1:13

which does have this goal of cutting $2

1:15

trillion out of the $6 trillion federal

1:18

budget so with spending up at education

1:20

and the VA last month those are by no

1:22

means the largest buckets of federal

1:24

spending but they are two areas guys

1:26

where there's been a lot of focus a lot

1:28

of discussion on cutting or maybe even

1:30

eliminating the entire agency so if you

1:33

want to cut a third of the budget I

1:34

guess you do have to start somewhere

1:36

clean energy is preparing for a messy

1:38

transition possibly the department of

1:40

energy is racing to give out money for

1:42

green projects before President elect

1:45

Donald Trump takes office now yeah right

1:48

let's rush to spend more money before

1:50

Trump takes it away it's just such a

1:53

disgrace and a mess my goodness uh so

1:55

some things that we really want to

1:57

address here first uh Elon Musk gave the

2:00

high five emoji to suggesting that we

2:02

will have open gov that's a reference to

2:05

open AI though hopefully that doesn't go

2:06

from a nonprofit to a for-profit uh he

2:10

also s reiterated that doge is only

2:14

authorized for 21 months through July

2:17

4th

2:18

2026 that'll be a few months before

2:21

midterms uh worth noting so got to kind

2:24

of probably wrap up and show some

2:25

progress by then so that way you could

2:27

go into midterms and hopefully brag

2:29

about progress

2:31

TBD uh you'll also find that doge is

2:36

designed to provide advice and guidance

2:39

to the government from outside the

2:42

government that's a quote from within

2:44

the announcement of do now what this is

2:47

actually interesting or why this is

2:49

interesting is it prevents Elon or vi

2:52

from having to divest for having any

2:54

kind of larger role with the White House

2:57

and so I think that's actually kind of

2:59

fascinating to think about because you

3:01

don't want Elon to have to divest from X

3:04

or Tesla or whatever or SpaceX except

3:07

now he can have substantial influence

3:09

inside of government without actually

3:12

having to follow the limitations that

3:14

government might put on him now on top

3:17

of that uh we have seen Elon Musk engage

3:21

in examples of wanting to get rid of

3:25

wasteful spending like the wasteful

3:27

spending that James lenford in Congress

3:30

has previously alleged now he's got a

3:33

lot of these in fact he publishes what

3:35

he calls as a waste booklet and there's

3:40

an example where he actually references

3:44

$20,000 getting funneled to the US state

3:48

department in

3:50

Ecuador and that money was being used

3:54

specifically for well you take a listen

3:58

yourself asking a question for

4:01

last year the state department did a

4:03

grant to Ecuador to host 12 drag shows

4:08

in

4:09

Ecuador with American tax dollars

4:12

now yeah so as usual what I like to do

4:16

is I like to fact check some of these

4:18

claims and when I did I I couldn't find

4:22

a lot of data on it but I found Newsweek

4:25

had a pretty good breakdown on it and

4:29

it's true 12 drag shows potentially even

4:33

an advertisement for diversity Equity

4:36

inclusion and money for posters and

4:39

other information so uh yeah Newsweek

4:43

has the story on this fact check is the

4:45

Biden Administration funding drag shows

4:47

in Ecuador now it's it's disguised all

4:50

as sort of like hey well we're just you

4:51

know sending money to our state

4:53

department over there to our embassy

4:54

over there don't don't worry they're

4:56

spending it on initiatives that are

4:58

important to them so they can relate to

5:00

the local community or I don't know

5:02

whatever they're do it's not not not a

5:05

good look yeah then there's also

5:07

apparently

5:08

$350,000 that was getting funneled to AI

5:13

smart

5:14

toilets this one's just a little gross

5:17

but apparently there are 35 to 37 anal

5:21

creases that are like an anal

5:24

fingerprint so we can identify different

5:26

people and then we can track your in

5:30

color flow rate and stool to measure the

5:33

person's health that way quote the data

5:37

does not go down the sewer but up to a

5:40

secure internet

5:43

Cloud I put my sources on this over on

5:45

ec.com you can see it there but oh my

5:47

gosh then apparently you had quote the

5:49

National Science Foundation joined their

5:52

potty party with a new $1 million grant

5:56

for Internet connected toilets that can

6:00

do passive urinalysis

6:03

testing they're actually Grants awarded

6:06

for this kind of

6:08

stuff I mean I'm trying to think of how

6:10

this could be useful maybe in like a

6:11

doctor's office or a hospital or

6:13

something but it just also seems a

6:16

little weird like why not let maybe the

6:18

Private Industry come up with something

6:19

and actually prove it first prove that

6:22

we actually need it first Beyond like

6:24

just testing people when they need to be

6:26

tested rather than just testing

6:27

everybody who uses a toilet which just

6:29

seems like a waste of

6:31

resources and if there's something

6:33

actually provable and useful how about

6:35

then we spend money on it rather than

6:38

your analysis on everyone's flow rates

6:43

and measuring people's a incases like a

6:46

fingerprint man that just seems weird

6:49

now VI also says that they're going to

6:52

open source their work so he's been

6:55

tweeting about this and he talks about

6:57

how they're going to open source all of

7:00

the data for Doge everything that Doge

7:03

does remember that's the department of

7:05

governmental efficiency uh and this is

7:08

important because they really want to

7:10

showcase everything that they're doing

7:12

every step of the way and apparently

7:14

what they're even thinking about doing

7:15

is having a potential leaderboard where

7:18

you could see the biggest examples of

7:21

government waste that they're able to

7:24

catch okay okay that's kind of

7:27

interesting you or at least remember

7:29

they're not in government so they're not

7:31

going to be able to ask these things but

7:33

they will be able to make

7:35

recommendations for these sorts of

7:37

things so I find it kind of interesting

7:40

hey let's see what they could do with it

7:43

uh Elon Musk also mentioned in uh an

7:46

item uh or an interview rather an item

7:49

uh hey you know we have

7:52

428 agencies in

7:55

government why do we have more agencies

7:59

than years that our country has been a

8:03

country maybe we could like cap the

8:06

number of government agencies there are

8:08

at like

8:09

99 and I thought it was kind of an

8:11

interesting analogy it's kind of like it

8:14

is interesting that's a lot of agency

8:16

growth now I mean there there a lot of

8:17

things the government has to do but then

8:19

again when money's getting funnel to

8:21

drag shows in Ecuador and AI smart

8:23

toilets which reminds me a lot of

8:25

getting ready to post a video on what's

8:27

going on in Germany apparently Germany

8:29

was funding bike Lanes in

8:32

Peru uh also through their sort of

8:35

embassies and local grants or whatever

8:37

they're funding bike Lanes in

8:39

Peru because lower greenhouse gas gas

8:42

emissions in Peru and spending 20 plus

8:45

million dollars on these bike lanes

8:46

andove are going to end up improving the

8:49

global climate and that benefits

8:54

Germans okay yeah department of waste

8:58

department and listen to Elon I kind of

9:01

like those it's more it's more fun um

9:04

yeah uh and uh we're just take a look at

9:08

at at all the federal agencies and say

9:13

do we really need whatever it is 428

9:15

federal agencies like there's so many

9:17

that people have never even heard of or

9:19

and that have overlapping areas of

9:21

responsibility we should I don't know

9:23

probably we should get I mean there are

9:26

more federal agencies than there are

9:28

years since the establishment of the

9:30

United States which means that we've

9:31

created more than one Federal agency per

9:33

year on

9:35

average that seems a lot that's a lot

9:38

that's a lot uh so we should have that

9:41

seems crazy

9:43

um I think we should anyway yeah that's

9:46

just another example or reference rather

9:48

to uh elon's take here on these agencies

9:52

uh here is an El a meme that people

9:55

think Elon is going to send uh to

9:58

everybody in government you can see

10:00

right here em at doe.gov that's Elon

10:05

Musk at doe.gov obviously you know fake

10:07

graphic here

10:08

to everyone at government basically what

10:11

did you get done this week H kind of a

10:14

way of saying yeah you remember when uh

10:16

we asked that question at X and we fired

10:19

four out of five people that worked at X

10:21

and we still kept the lights on in the

10:23

platform running kind of wild uh now

10:26

another thing that you've got is Elon

10:29

inter interacting with a chart uh I'll

10:32

actually just show that on screen here

10:34

it is a chart that shows right here

10:37

least subsidized degrees for income

10:40

driven repayment programs uh and then

10:43

most subsidized degrees for income

10:46

driven basically uh debt forgiveness and

10:49

you can see most of the the degrees that

10:51

have the highest percentage of debt

10:53

forgiveness here are things like

10:56

cosmetology cosmetology oops cosm ology

10:59

biology music Fine Arts liberal arts

11:02

communication disorder scientists drama

11:04

theater Arts stagecraft blah blah blah

11:06

and then the least subsidized degrees

11:07

were mechanical engineering civil

11:08

engineering electrical engineering

11:10

chemical engineering computer science

11:11

Registered Nursing computer and

11:13

information scientists Finance economics

11:16

mathematics marketing and this is an

11:19

interesting one because you know I I I

11:21

didn't fact check exactly where this

11:23

chart is from but let's just think about

11:25

the concept of it for a moment if it is

11:28

true that most of the debt forgiveness

11:31

is going to people with these degrees

11:33

which I don't dispute that that is

11:35

likely it's worth considering that

11:37

technically debt forgiveness grants are

11:39

Income driven so I wrote here by virtue

11:42

of the grants being income driven yes

11:44

less productive degrees get more of the

11:47

benefit the intention seems to be help

11:49

the people who are making the least

11:51

amount of money but as with most things

11:53

in government what you really do is you

11:55

perversely screw up the free market and

11:57

now you're incentivizing the

11:59

lower productivity degrees so Elon did

12:03

interact with that chart as well uh and

12:06

he has interacted with fake things

12:07

before so it's worth keeping an eye on

12:09

that but uh this this makes sense again

12:12

it's just an example where let's assume

12:15

for a moment it's true and if we assume

12:16

it's true then we should look and go why

12:18

is it that when government touches stuff

12:20

you screw things up well usually it's

12:21

because the free market is a much better

12:25

allocator of uh of capital way better

12:31

anyway uh then uh then we've got the

12:33

leader board coming all actions of the

12:35

Department of government efficiency will

12:37

be posted online for maximum

12:40

transparency anytime the public thinks

12:42

we are cutting something important or

12:44

not cutting something wasteful just let

12:45

us know we will also have a leaderboard

12:47

for the most insanely dumb spending of

12:49

your tax dollars this will be both

12:50

extremely tragic and extremely

12:53

entertaining yeah yeah probably also

12:56

true elon's also been somewhat anti the

12:59

CEO of NPR or former CEO of NPR uh I

13:04

should say former uh the CEO gave a TED

13:08

Talk and this kind of went viral in a

13:13

bad way for her so listen to the clip

13:16

and then I'll add the context that's

13:20

missing might become might have become

13:23

hold on I think our reverence for the

13:26

truth might become might have become

13:29

a bit of a distraction that is

13:31

preventing us from finding consensus and

13:33

getting important things done I think

13:35

our

13:37

reverence okay uh so this is basically

13:40

suggesting that hey you know with just

13:44

that quote that seems like she's bagging

13:47

on the truth here and Elon Musk engages

13:50

with this should your tax dollars really

13:51

be paying for an organization running by

13:53

people who think the truth is a

13:55

distraction all right so I'm going to

13:57

give my opinion on this after after I

13:59

give a little bit of context to what

14:01

happened here so basically what this

14:04

lady says is she suggests that the truth

14:07

is getting in the way of consensus or

14:10

agreement and she references Wikipedia

14:13

and the Wikipedia uh system where

14:15

basically Wikipedia's goal is to write

14:18

articles and if you're 100% committed to

14:22

the truth rather than something that's

14:24

probably true like 95% true then in that

14:28

case like you might just be standing in

14:30

the way of writing any articles so you

14:32

may as well just write nothing because

14:34

you're not going to get to 100% truth uh

14:36

and so this is problematic though and I

14:38

don't agree with this and I'm going to

14:39

explain why I don't agree with this but

14:41

let me give you more detail here her

14:43

basic argument is if we can focus on

14:45

things we can know right now let's take

14:49

that consensus with the closest

14:51

approximation of the

14:52

truth and then post the article go with

14:56

that and move

14:57

on she argues that focusing on only the

15:01

absolute truth basically stalls us it

15:04

gets in the way she acknowledges that

15:06

the truth is important but people have

15:08

different truths so let's just agree to

15:10

disagree and get these Wikipedia

15:11

articles written now this has serious

15:15

problems one of the serious problems is

15:18

that it has is it basically takes an

15:21

argument and have you ever been in an

15:23

argument and then people are like well

15:24

let's just agree to disagree well it

15:26

doesn't solve the problem the problem is

15:29

still there and if you go with a

15:32

consensus-based approach where let's say

15:34

you have 20 people editing a Wikipedia

15:36

article and 19 are like this is the

15:38

truth and then they silence the opinion

15:41

of that 20th person who might actually

15:43

have the truest

15:45

truth if the reader can't see both of

15:48

those opinions clearly then what you've

15:51

really done is you've censored somebody

15:53

who potentially has the real truth and

15:57

that's the whole thing that Eli musk has

15:59

been trying to avoid with purchasing X

16:02

is hey look you don't have to believe

16:05

everyone that you read we just want to

16:06

give you the opportunity to read

16:08

it and that that is what Free Speech

16:11

after all is is not that you will

16:14

definitely be heard or listened to but

16:17

that at least you have the right to say

16:19

it and see when I ran for governor I

16:22

noticed that there were Pro Newsome

16:24

Wikipedia editors that were able to take

16:26

control of my Wiki page and they

16:28

basically created this Cult of what they

16:30

thought was the truth and I'm like wait

16:33

wait a minute you're writing this about

16:35

me I know what the truth is and your

16:37

Cult of

16:39

Truth at least you know what you are

16:42

curating to others as sort of the

16:44

moderator of the truth is

16:47

wrong and then they like this is wrong

16:49

and they're like no it's not like I am

16:53

me it's it's quite bizarre so this is

16:57

where Elon Musk is like yeah you know

16:59

maybe those are things we just shouldn't

17:01

be funding now of course on the flip

17:03

side is it possible that Elon might be

17:05

thinking hey since we're so good at

17:08

sharing the truth let's promote

17:11

more X content of course is it possible

17:16

that there could even be a promotion by

17:19

government on X for more X ads or you

17:23

know more government accounts on X of

17:25

course I mean this none of this

17:27

involvement is really going to hurt Eli

17:29

but I actually think they're making some

17:31

pretty good comments so far now I know

17:35

elon's spending a lot of time right now

17:37

sort of trolling on on X but I actually

17:39

think it's funny because there are a lot

17:41

of things where when I read them I'm

17:42

like huh yeah you know why why are we

17:44

beginning uh to spend money uh on things

17:47

like uh you know um drag shows in Peru

17:51

or other ludicrous wastes uh you know AI

17:55

toilets or you know you could get into

17:57

like sort of Rand Paul he starts talking

18:00

about how we're feeding fish cocaine and

18:03

and there have been many experiments

18:06

with Fish And ovulation and some of them

18:08

are science experiments some of them

18:10

actually have arguments but then when

18:11

you hear it it's like oh my gosh on the

18:13

surface this does sound really ludicrous

18:15

and so maybe when we spend money there

18:18

should at least be an explanation that

18:20

goes with it that is very obvious and

18:23

easy to understand it's almost like if

18:25

you're going to spend the money on

18:26

something that seems stupid at least

18:28

spend a little bit extra effort

18:30

to uh make sure that you explain it to

18:36

the people whose money you're

18:38

spending uh anyway now you can follow

18:41

Doge make sure to follow

18:45

Doge this is very interesting so Elon

18:48

Musk uh just tweeted while I was filming

18:51

this it begins uh and I when I say

18:54

tweeted I should be saying posted but

18:56

whatever uh working overtime to ensure

18:59

your tax dollars will be spent wisely

19:01

the first Department of government

19:03

efficiency post which already has 36,000

19:08

followers boom there it is November 13th

19:11

11:36 there it is American flag dollar

19:14

sign oh it's actually the second post

19:17

they posted their sort of mandate last

19:19

night I suppose wow almost 1 million

19:22

likes it's pretty incredible uh but

19:24

anyway there you go thank you can you

19:26

start with the IRS

19:28

[Laughter]

19:31

preview of day one oh it's melee out out

19:35

out that's funny TSA ATF cut the IRS

19:39

please no tax on overtime well this

19:42

isn't the government this is a a body

19:45

that is going to

19:47

recommend uh uh you know changes

19:51

basically to the um uh president and to

19:55

Congress and otherwise I mean they do

19:58

have it listed as technically a

20:00

government agency but I mean here you go

20:03

this is how they say I'm pleased to

20:04

announce that Elon in conjunction with

20:06

Viv will lead the department of

20:08

government efficiency together the two

20:10

wonderful Americans uh will pave the way

20:12

for my for my Administration to

20:14

dismantle government bureaucracy and

20:16

essentially cut

20:18

waste now this agency will operate

20:22

outside the government and will partner

20:25

with the White House and Office of

20:26

Management budget so if it's outside the

20:28

government I have to say I'm a little

20:30

confused why it has the gray uh verified

20:35

uh government or multilateral oh did

20:38

they just redefine

20:40

this that's really interesting because

20:43

it used to be that gray was only for

20:45

political accounts but now apparently

20:47

the gray check mark indicates it could

20:50

be government or

20:52

multilateral organization or a

20:54

government and multilateral organization

20:56

combined interesting main agencies

21:00

Public Safety may include heads of state

21:02

uh may include Regional level county

21:05

level institutional

21:06

accounts blah blah blah blah blah State

21:09

Governors military leaders otherwise so

21:12

technically it's outside the government

21:14

but it's inside the It's Kind it's like

21:16

the Federal Reserve it's it's uh it's

21:18

Federal but it's not

21:20

federal what a mess okay whatever I will

21:24

say entertainment is going to be vastly

21:27

guaranteed here another one by the way

21:29

is Donald Trump is now targeting

21:31

endowments and he's threatening to

21:33

basically fire a bunch of people who

21:37

accredit colleges with what he calls

21:39

wasteful spending now if you listen

21:41

closely one of the crazy things that I

21:44

haven't even thought of before but it's

21:46

probably a good idea is Donald Trump

21:47

actually starts talking about this

21:48

potential for a college exit exam he's

21:53

like if we do if we have college

21:54

entrance exams why don't we have exit

21:56

exams to actually see if people are Lear

21:58

earning anything and if they should

21:59

actually be spending this money listen

22:01

to Trump course colleges and

22:03

universities have been exploding and I

22:06

mean absolutely exploding while

22:09

academics have been obsessed with

22:11

indoctrinating America's youth the time

22:14

has come to reclaim our once great

22:17

educational institutions from the

22:19

radical left and we will do that our

22:21

secret weapon will be the college

22:24

accreditation system it's called

22:27

accreditation for a reason

22:29

the accreditors are supposed to ensure

22:31

that schools are not ripping off

22:33

students and taxpayers but they have

22:35

failed totally when I return to the

22:38

White House I will fire the radical left

22:40

accreditors that have allowed our

22:42

colleges to become dominated by marxists

22:46

maniacs and lunatics we will then accept

22:50

applications for new accreditors who

22:52

will impose real standards on colleges

22:55

once again and once and for all these

22:58

standards will include defending the

23:00

American tradition and Western

23:02

Civilization protecting Free Speech

23:04

eliminating wasteful administrative

23:06

positions that drive up costs incredibly

23:10

removing all Marxist diversity equity

23:13

and inclusion bureaucrats offering

23:16

options for Accelerated and lowcost

23:19

degrees providing meaningful job

23:21

placement and career services and

23:24

implementing college entrance and exit

23:26

exams to prove that students are

23:28

actually learning and getting their

23:30

money's worth furthermore I will direct

23:33

the Department of Justice to pursue

23:35

federal civil rights cases against

23:37

schools that continue to engage in

23:39

racial discrimination and schools that

23:42

persist in explicit unlawful

23:45

discrimination under the guise of equity

23:48

will not only have their endowments

23:50

taxed but through budget reconciliation

23:53

I will advance a measure to have them

23:56

find up to the entire higher amount of

23:59

their endowment a portion of the seiz

24:01

funds will then be used as restitution

24:04

for victims of these illegal and unjust

24:07

policies policies that hurt our country

24:09

so badly colleges have gotten hundreds

24:12

of billions of dollars from hardworking

24:15

taxpayers and now we are going to get

24:17

this anti-American Insanity out of our

24:21

institutions once and for all we are

24:24

going to have real education in America

24:27

thank you

24:29

H wow I mean honestly everything he's

24:32

saying it sounds good let's see if we

24:36

can Implement some of this stuff

24:38

because the cuse system's got a little

24:41

broken it's very very expensive and

24:43

you're right like the ROI you know it

24:46

has to be there for folks Trump so

24:48

you're right about that uh you don't

24:51

want you know younger 18year olds who

24:54

have to make this decision to get ripped

24:57

off and then they start off their whole

24:59

lives saddled with student dad on the

25:01

wrong foot it's just it's bad it's sad

25:04

it's not good anyway uh Department of

25:08

efficiency Department of government

25:12

efficiency either governmental or not I

25:15

haven't figured it out yet anyway uh

25:17

25:19

25:22

thinking about government

25:25

25:29

an easy way to fire people at the

25:31

government even a odd social security

25:34

number if your social ends in an odd

25:35

number and odd is what we picked out of

25:37

the Hat you're
