LA's Wildfire Disaster, Zuck Flips on Free Speech, Why Trump Wants Greenland

literally to pick up my lunch, if she can't answer one or two goddamn questions and give a placating answer to a reporter, hey, it's an intense situation. We're working as hard as we can. She can't even say two goddamn words to the people who voted her in.

And for anybody who voted for this level of incompetence, it reminds me of exactly what we went through in San Francisco when I was living there in the Bay Area, when you put someone like Chesa Boudin in or London Breed or this entire...

Clown car, Aaron Petsker, all these disgraceful, the Marxist lunatics who would rather virtue signal dopey Dean Preston, the whole lot of them, you vote them out and you vote in executives. And it doesn't mean a Republican executive. It doesn't mean a Democrat executive. It means an executive who's run something in their life before.

Whether it's Bloomberg, whether it's Trump, whether it's Rick Caruso, it doesn't matter their ideology. It matters their effectiveness. And if you vote for ineffective people, you're going to get situations like this over and over and over again. So use your brains and vote for executives who've done something in the world. This is why I've changed my position on rooting for Trump now.

I was a never Trump or everybody knows that, but he put executives around him this time around. And I am rooting for those executives to do what's right for the American people and solve big problems, not make them worse. It's infuriating. Timoth, what do you think?

It's a crisis of competence. I mean, I think we all see it. These are incompetent people.

Well said. I mean, and as we said in this segment, there are so many common sense, tactical, strategic things that these people could be doing, that they should be doing, that they're not. And there needs to be a full-blown investigation. You kind of alluded to this earlier, Chamath, but if there is, if this is dereliction of duty, then we need to look into this in a very deep fashion.

And to the people of California, you have more power than you know My friend who used to be on this podcast once in a while, he and I collaborated on Chesa Boudin being taken out as this DA in the Bay Area. I know some other people here were involved in it as well. And you can recall somebody. So recall these incompetent lunatics. Recall them.

Here's a framing. If you're paying 50% tax in California, you're a shareholder of an organization known as California Inc. You're on the board of that company. You're paying the salaries of the people there. You have a say. Recall these people. Start a recall of Newsom. Start a recall of Karen Bass. Just do it. I'm not doing it. I don't have time for this. I'm in Austin.
