Jason Calacanis expresses his hatred towards Trump and his confidence in his investing strategy. He also mentions the success of open sourcing to fans.
David Friedberg shares his emotional response to the Biden Inauguration speech and reflects on the impact of simple, humane, and good things in modern society.
In order to prevent unintended consequences for normal Americans and to address the extremities of both parties, individuals need to unite and provide support towards the betterment of everyone. Adam Schiff’s bill, which proposes a new domestic Patriot Act to enforce surveillance powers for the state, is an indication of the growing concern around domestic terrorism.
If the Republican Party were to kick out Trump and he established a fringe party, the Democrats could potentially move further left, driving the centrists away from the party. Additionally, a trial could allow the Republican Party to rally behind closed doors and reinforce the sentiment "it's either him or us."
Discussion on the importance of not feeding China's economy and how the Republicans have the ability to be centrists while attracting the next generation of leaders.
In this episode, the speaker discusses the possible future of social media and whether or not it should be relied upon as a means of communication. They suggest that an open sourced approach to deciding what is appropriate content and what technology protocols are available for everyone to use may be the answer.
The price-to-earnings ratio of big tech companies has been affected by various flashpoints around free speech, and this could lead to more regulations that might impact their existence, as seen in Australia's decision to treat Facebook and Google as quasi publishers and pass a law that requires them to pay royalties for shared or published articles.
The vulnerability of America's intellectual property through user data and the inadequacy of data and software security to protect that vulnerability. The discussion highlights the passing of the stimulus bill and its potential to print trillions of dollars towards investment.
Building biomanufacturing facilities using a few billion dollars from the $1.9 trillion stimulus bill can support the future vaccine and antibody therapeutic supply chain in the US, which is critically needed. However, for-profit companies are relatively risk-averse and may not invest such a large sum.
The US created retirement accounts to provide a shift away from fixed income pension models allowing people to actively participate in tax-free equity and ownership in the markets. People need a way to participate and save for the future by investing in real estate, artwork, stocks, and bonds.
The idea of giving equity participation to lower-level workers such as truck drivers and cashiers needs to be implemented in order to ensure that more than just 18 people benefit from creating 20-30 trillion dollars a year over the next 10-20 years. This needs to be fixed before the US reemerges in the next decade or two.
The podcast discusses the recall of California Governor and the possible reasons behind it, including failed vaccine rollout and ad hoc lockdown rules that have angered people within the tech community.
Lockdowns only postponed the problem and could lead to losing progressive job opportunities forever. Many people are going out to bars and restaurants which are considered low-risk activities for COVID-19.
The podcast hosts discuss the impacts of pandemic on taxes and the migration of people from California to Texas and Florida. They also talk about the challenges of achieving equity in vaccine distribution during this time.
The speaker expressed his disapproval of the right's action of cancel culture against the left arguing that it only divides the nation and does not promote unity.
The speaker discusses their platform ideas for running for governor, including implementing a pro-climate change jobs, tech jobs, and biotech jobs economy, raising teacher salaries, and providing school vouchers.
