The upcoming Web Summit in Lisbon, Portugal, is described as an "Illuminati festival" due to its high-profile guest list. Attendees include Al Gore, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, and various tech CEOs. The hosts note the inclusion of numerous B-list celebrities and media figures.
Federalist Papers, Electoral College Desperation
The hosts examine the history of the Federalist Papers, noting they were originally published under the pseudonym "Publius" to promote the ratification of the Constitution. They discuss the irony of liberals using an "arcane" 18th-century document to subvert the election results. Dvorak mentions a bet he won against journalist friends who were convinced Trump would quit the campaign before the election.
Donald Trump held a high-profile summit at Trump Tower with top tech CEOs, including Jeff Bezos, Tim Cook, and Larry Page. The hosts analyze the seating chart, noting the absence of Twitter's Marissa Mayer and Jack Dorsey. They interpret the meeting as a "ring-kissing" event where Trump established his authority over Silicon Valley leaders who largely opposed him during the campaign.
