Badlands Media - Devolution Power Hour Ep. 494: LIVE from GART 13 in Las Vegas

Episode Date: September 20, 2026

A rare crossover: Jon Herold, Chris Paul, and Burning Bright are all together live at Gart for this one, and the energy shows. They kick off with Trump's latest true social posts about a potential third term before getting into a genuinely strange story about AI supposedly nudging the country toward conflict with China, and the very convenient timing of the outlet that broke it getting banned from the White House the same day. The hosts pick apart just how many layers of fakeness might be stacked on top of each other here, joking about "fake intelligence" reporting on itself. Being together in person adds some extra banter and inside jokes to the usual mix, plus a personal clip revisit near the end. It's a lighter, more freewheeling episode than the usual remote setup, but the news still gets covered.

The Badlands, one of the Badlands, explain those Badlands. That's a hell of their name. There we go. Good evening, everybody, and welcome to the live edition of the Devolution Power Hour. Yeah. Joined by Chris Paul and, unfortunately, Bernie Bright. How are you guys doing? Pretty good.

I always like seeing the, you hear that intro every week. but being at Gart and like sitting and being present and listening to the intro, hits different every time. How do you think? Still hits. Why is that? I don't know.

Well, because when we do it from home, we're just like, doing it like around, doing shit while that plays, yeah. Like it's an extra five minutes of just free time. Yeah, I'll like go out into the kitchen, hood rat, you know, play with my kid for a while, put him to bed. Catch a bottle of the research you didn't do. Right.

Like, I got time. The intro just started. A lot of people used to complain about the intro length, but if you remember back when I first started doing DPHs, I would play like 30 minutes of music before we even got to the intro before we got to the show. So trimmed it down. That was like an important feature of Badlands at that point,

like just DJing before the event. We had to take it away, though, because we couldn't make it work with all the other shows. But maybe we could bring it back, I don't know. Nah, I'm sure we need to. Not a fan. Okay, well, never mind then. Whatever. How you guys enjoying Garts so far?

Should be a fun conversation tonight. We're going to talk a little bit of Trump's true social posts, term three stuff. We're going to talk about AI. It's probably a fake story, but AI supposedly with fake intelligence almost leading us to war with China. It could be a fake story about fake intelligence that is being punished by Trump in a different way. So there's a lot of layers of faken punished by Trump? Well, keep in mind that the outlet that put this report out was banned that day from the White House. Was that the same day? Yes.

September 18th, it was yesterday that that report came out on CNN, and that was when Trump put out the post, I believe. Was CNN the one who reported it? Yeah, they did on Friday. It was an exclusive inside sources type story. Wow. And then they were banned from the White House. So we can get into that in a little bit, but I think that's kind of juicy, the timing there. That might be the first time I've ever heard you say the word juicy.

Juicy? Yeah. I've said it a few times this weekend. I don't know why, but. You just kind of like gave away your punchline without the time. I know. Yeah. You got to do set up in that punchline.

I can do it in much longer fashion in a few minutes. All right. Looking forward to it. I know you are, Joe. We also have a treat for you guys. This is going to be the second guard in a row where we get a brand new soft disclosure ad. And it's amazing. Ash, have you even seen it?

Okay, you have? Okay, it's fantastic. I know you two haven't seen it. And I know you guys haven't seen it. I'm very excited about that. What else are we going to talk about? There's one other story, I feel like. Greenland.

Oh, yeah, Greenland. That's a fun one. Uncle G's coming to town next week. Yeah, and I thought he had a stroke, though. Oh, yeah. I mean, that was incredible in terms of fake news. I set you up for a stroke of genius, maybe, but you didn't take it. I take the sovereign lines very seriously.

I don't joke around about Uncle G or Vlad. Apparently, Trump also left Camp David early. So there are geopolitical events afoot. And Bibi Nanyahu flew back to Israel so that they could handle the next wave of the Iran thing. Trump said that he was ready to annihilate them again yesterday the day before. Yeah. Well, I didn't even know Bibi was here. Do we know why he was?

he at Camp David with Trump? It was not my turn to watch him. It was what? It was not my turn to watch him. Yeah, I have no idea. I don't follow the Jew stuff very closely. That's Ghost's domain. I'm sure he's in the command center now.

He flew back. Tracking the flight. Yeah. Flew back with the... It's like the Fred Armisen meme right to jail. You saying that, right to hell. I do miss Ghost. He was texting me during the last.

panel we were doing, like trying to correct everything BB was saying. Well, BB's wrong about this, this, this, this, this. That son of a bitch. I almost called him. Just put him on speakerphone, but he'll be in Florida. I was saying one of my favorite Gartisms that has taken place is when Ghost is on the mic for questions and proceeds every question by giving a take for like five minutes. And I think it was at Gart Plymouth when he,

him and G. were drunk and came in and took the mic and just started arguing with us. Just totally interjected onto the show. Maybe in Florida we'll add ghost to the thumbnail or whatever. Yeah. But I almost want to start with the SOT disclosure ad. Just to get everybody's mood a little lifted. And before we do that, we've got to do my favorite Rumble read,

you know, the one I'm talking about, the awkward one. So we're going to do that. And then, Chris, once I read this, we'll get right into. the new soft disclosure video and then we'll start talking about whatever it comes up but let's start with this jessica if you're ready here it comes this is a paid advertisement for rumble wallet they are sponsoring this portion of the show all right chat real talk if you actually want our attention there's now a clear line to it here's how it works we're prioritizing rants sent through rumble wallet if you send one we see it and we respond as simple as that for a limited time

But all right, without further ado, Chris, let's play that new video. In a realm divided by ancient houses, a war has begun. In the house of Lipbaum. Jonathan of House Drake, you stand accused of defying the decree of Madame Archie? I've never heard of what the actual consequences are if we don't shave off our beards.

Waiting to find out, because I have no intention of shaving. In this realm, even the beards may fall. House of lotion I thread your elbows House of Tallow House of Mini Tallow House of beard oil And house of deodorant

She can't get away with this This would have never happened if she had Bitcoin Eat a bag of Dragon D's jean Kimmer kated punctured in Phil Spice Wait Mitch He's a flash rock down It looks like you guys You guys could use a little help.

The God Emperor. First of all, I've got to say, supporting six small American businesses, huge fan. Big fan of America. But I came here to tell you, you have a big problem at your border. A very big problem. An army of dry-skinned walkers is coming into your lands.

We have to spread the word. promo code walkers, 17% off at softdisclosure.com. What about Madame Marjorie and her beardless son already handled? I've got the brush on it.

Put this on your beard to soften it, motherfucker. I feel like that would have been a $10 million budgeted commercial five years ago. Yeah, don't get any ideas in Green Star's head because we don't have that kind of budget. But great work, Green Star. That was amazing. Drake looks pretty good without the beard there. I don't know if that's accurate

to his true jaw line, but his AI jaw line. Yeah, we'll have to shave him just like they did in the show at the next guard. See how he looks. I also like that Cam

seemed to be Brian's servant. That was the implication that I took away from it. He seemed to be serving Brian as a blacksmith, which, you know. Brian was the blacksmith

and he gave the thing to Cam to stick in the water because Brian clearly couldn't do that himself. What was that? Can't hear you without the microphone, but I believe you. I'm above that. Gotcha.

Anyway, yeah, that's great. Softdisclosure.com, promo code walkers for 17% off. Get yourself some soft disclosure. All right, should we start with term three? Can you share my screen? There we go. So this was from Donald Trump yesterday. All the accomplishments,

Oops. All the accomplishments from his... Oh, dang it. What a disaster. Did you see this, by the way? Like, the rebranding pole of artificial intelligence? You're only allowed to say good things about it. Like, artificial intelligence isn't a proper name for it.

You have to call it something nicer. I would appreciate it if everybody votes in it. So do we go to hell if we don't vote on this one? Yes. Only if you swear to Donald Trump that you're going to vote in it. Artificial intelligence? No, sorry. Superior intelligence, extreme intelligence.

Did you vote? I'll take it. I kind of like the extreme. Oh, man, superior. Okay, anyway, let's go back to what we're trying to do here. The top 25 accomplishments from term three, we could read through these, but I just think the most exciting part is him saying term three, because what that implies about term two,

And that's like the devolution period. That's a devolution proof. Yeah, and it's always interesting, even though we've gotten a lot of these over the years. It's always interesting when Trump himself is boosting one, especially when we're in the gravitational pull of the midterms that will end all midterms, either lead us to peace forever or strife forever in all lands. And Chris was talking about last week, Steve Bannon was talking about our boy

blue a lot lately which was kind of interesting. Oh yeah that was yeah that was a few weeks ago he was talking about how so out of nowhere he began talking about how Joe Biden should not be given a state funeral like upon his imminent death

made it sound like it was going to happen three weeks ago and he had like a heads up on it or something wasn't that when Hunter Biden was out there saying my dad's super sick he's super brave he's super strong he's in pain all the time yes and it seemed like it was going to happen any moment. And so, like Ben, it started preempting it saying that Joe Biden should not be given a state funeral because he was never actually a legitimate president. And I love that because

that's what we've been saying for many years now. So hopefully we're getting to that point. And then we can begin really getting into what it means that Joe Biden was not a legitimate president. It would mean that everything that he did and was done under him would be, therefore, not It should be nullified just on the basis that it wasn't constitutional. But and we could treat it that way because it is that way. But yeah, eventually we're going to have to unwind all this stuff and determine what it means. But then the other thing about it is, you know, Joe Biden assumed office, you know, insofar as we saw him assume office, under challenge of that election.

And it's still unresolved. And Trump talks about the 2020 election all the time. So a president, quote unquote, assumed office after an election that was still under challenge. Under protest. Under protest. And still is. And Trump did say that it was under protest before Joe Biden assumed office. Oh, yeah.

He said that on December 15th of 2020. In a tweet, right? It was the day after the Army Navy game. Yeah. When he was on the helicopter with John Rackcliffe, the day after that is when he announced it was under protest. They never unprotested it. Yeah, and I think that one of the things I'm, like, most proud of with the Badlands Project is that, like, we have taken seriously the idea that Joe Biden was not a legitimate president.

And, you know, we've spent ample time analyzing things from the everything is normal perspective, which is fine because it kind of allows us to engage with the conversation that people are having broadly. but if we know that that's not actually what's happening, if things aren't just happening as normal, then when we're operating under that framing, we're already making a mistake. And so we have to actually spend the time assuming that Joe Biden is not a legitimate president

and analyze that scenario as well and analyze everything through that. And when you do that, the things that the Congress is doing and the results of these elections and the rest of it is just such useless nonsense. Because it literally keeps, can't be that situation.

You know what's weird is speaking of like delegitimizing Biden is whatever happened to the auto pen thing. Like there was a period of time there for like two months straight where everybody was talking about the auto pen and delegitimizing all these pardons and all these things that that Biden did. And we don't talk about that at all anymore. Like even Trump to like stop talking about that. I think it's one of those things that's gotten set up over the years because it's eventually going to be used.

And maybe the broader public has to kind of. of engage the idea that something there is wrong and that certain things need to be nullified or voided. And I don't know, maybe that's an entry point for people. That's like the hopeful take on it. But the auto pen thing is not, that's like 10% of what the real situation is. Yeah, I mean, that would be what we would refer to as like a translation layer or something like that.

You know, this is the mechanism through which we're explaining the illegitimacy of the actions that Joe Biden took, but the hope for people like us, I think, would be that that has been a temporary translation layer for the actual truth, which is that Joe Biden was never the president. And you mentioned Congress, Chris, and we've said this throughout the year, you know, for me personally, I can only speak for myself, the backdrop of not caring about the midterms, at least in the way we are told we must care about them, has actually been less. for me about the election system, it's been much more rooted in this.

Because I try to engage with the idea of like, okay, let's say that just for the sake of argument, we knew unequivocally the midterms in a couple of months here were going to be held in a verifiable honest manner. Would that change my underlying feeling of the legitimacy or lack thereof of the Congress that is in there now, including a lot of the people? on the ballots in November.

And the reason it largely would not is in keeping with the implications of the 2020 election and the election cycles since not being legitimate. So the same thing we're talking about with Joe Biden. I mean, we've been saying on DPH for some time, at least one of the open questions I've been posing the whole year when responding to people being very upset about our stance on the midterms on this show is, does Donald Trump strike you as somebody who is, governing as if he is looking for the approval of Congress? Or does he look like somebody who has been governing the entire time as if Congress is

illegitimate? And I would suggest the latter has been quite clear, and I think it's all rooted in this. I don't think it's just, oh, Congress or his political enemies. I think it's more he knows they're not duly elected. It's a valid point. I mean, the people that get mad at us the most about our take on elections are the ones that like Donald Trump is taking down a 100-year-old or older, like global, deep state, embedded everywhere, enemy, city of London, all these things, but he is wholly dependent on winning the midterms to do it.

I think it makes no effing sense, but we don't need to get into the election stuff if we don't want to, but I feel like you might want to. What if we do want to? We can. Well, look at the convention. What was that last week? The midterm convention, yeah. Yeah, the midterm convention. And, you know, Trump, I didn't hear you guys show about it, but Trump just treated that as like a Trump-a-Palooza.

I mean, the media was, I think, calling it Trump a Paloosa. And what was most interesting to me in the kind of gravity around that midterm extravaganza was that the media was quoting the GOP and writing all these pieces about how they didn't really know how to react to what Trump was doing. A lot of the GOP that are going to be on the ballots in November didn't go to the midterms. Other ones tried to distance themselves from Trump around it. The whole thing just has a feeling to me of Trump kind of baiting. Did you send me something earlier today? I did. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah. The CNN, I like did a screenshot from CNN or something, I think, right? Yes. It says, it said, so this was the headline on CNN's from page. today. More Republicans are defying Trump in public. The president is staying mostly silent. And then below at one place you won't find President Trump starring in Republican ads. So that whole thing, and I'm certainly not unique to me, but my main angle on Trump, re the DOP in 2026 on DPH in particular, has been, I think he's been baiting the GOP all year.

You know, I'm not saying the whole Iran war narrative is about the GOP. But at least a second order effect is it feels like between the midterm, I mean, between the Iran War narrative, the very recently the Stimmy check narrative. He's the what? The Stimmy checks. The $5,000. Yeah, the Stimmy check. Yeah, the $5,000 stimies. That's what it's called on the streets.

Dividends. I don't know if you went to Freed Street or whatever it is. I think they call it Stimies. No, my boys. I was there. But anyway, when he, when he. throws that stuff out there, I think he's chumming the waters for the GOP and saying like, hey, how are you guys going to respond to the media asking you if you're in favor of the thing

Trump is proposing? And none of them know what to do. You had, you had Mike Johnson be asked about the $5,000 stimmies. And he was like, well, that's something that Congress would have to address. And then all the unnamed GOP congressmen who were asked by Politico and all the rest of the outlets, basically deferred and we're like, well, I don't think it makes any sense. I don't think we could do it anyway. I don't know where the money would come from. All of which is just to say, besides the fact that I think Donald Trump considers Congress wholly illegitimate, I really do believe that he considers the Democrats irrelevant in 2026 and has been focusing on the GOP and saying, why don't you tell the people the truth, which is that you are opposed to my agenda?

how many different ways can I make it obvious that you're opposed to my agenda? You have onboarded one person into DumaCrats. Oh, no. One for like five million, but it's happening. This is how things catch on, guys. It is. We're all going to start saying Duma Democrats before we know. Word of mouth.

Somebody out there will inadvertently say it in like three weeks. Trump will say it eventually too. He was upset about it. That's the ultimate bad man's poop. Wasn't he upset about it? He was kind of upset about it. I wasn't upset that, but there was a show where we did, it was the only lands where we had a whole debate about it. And then the next day, he had a poll. He did a poll. He did a poll about it, whether it should be Democrats or Democrats or whatever.

That was a boop. It was a great boop. Major boop. What was that? Go, go to the mic. Go to the mic so everybody can hear you. I think he's right. By the way, J-Treat's been giving free, like, chiropractic adjustments to pretty much every attendee here. Where are you all been?

I've been up in my room, just waiting for the knocks. By the way, I think that's ripe for lawsuits because I didn't sign anything. No money exchange hands. So if you start kind of limping around afterwards. Yeah. It's one of the benefits of coming to a guard, though. You get a free patriot chiropractic. I thought you were going to say you could sue us, right?

Because that usually happened. Lawsuits sold separately. Exactly. And I can't guarantee everybody will walk out of here. No, so what happened was is Trump put the poll out asking how he should spell it in his tweets. because people were mispronouncing it in thinking he meant to Duma Democrats when he meant Democrats.

So he said, should I put the B in there? But then it doesn't look good. He's like, I like just changing the E to a U and you should know it's Democrats. So I was vindicated on that. That's really doomed. I would just tell him, yes, I would have to defer to John here

that phonetically that word would be pronounced Democrat. Well, I would like to defer to myself and I never pronounce anything right. So I'm okay with the way Trump by changing the spelling opt himself

Well otherwise he would have People would have been like it's dumbo crats And nobody And so that's why He had to get rid of the bee That's true actually It would become a hard bee Yeah yeah

The English language is tough Well Trump works his way around it Is the point This is why everybody calls him like a fascist This is all the grammar Naziism I'm going around here That's what this is He's trying to force his pronunciation.

True sovereignty is pronouncing a duk-Mocrat. I think that's from Len. Well, a real fascist just starts changing the spelling of words. Yep. That's true. Or removing them from the dictionary altogether. Pretty soon, fascism is going to be spelled F-A-S-H-I-S-M. Like fashion?

He's going to change it. Fascist that he is. He might. Anyway. way to ruin the flow, Chris. Can we have a moment of silence for the former spelling of fascism? We should go on to another Trump true social post. Greenland?

I don't know which one to do. Yeah, there's a Greenland one. That's a lot. I don't want to read all that. He's been going bonkers on these. He's had a bunch of long ones. Did Greenland? I saw NBC say that Denmark had confirmed it, but we've been a little unplugged.

Has anybody seen Denmark or Greenland directly address this? Or have you only seen the media reporting that they have? Does anybody see it? Well, let's talk about what actually happened. Yeah. First. So Trump announced on true social, I think Friday night, that they had come to a historic infinite agreement,

I believe it was, an infinite agreement. It was Friday. Forever ended day. Forever. With Greenland. an unprecedented military agreement. The gist of it that I took away from it was, it's in terms of giving the U.S. military

essentially unfettered access to the landmass of Greenland and not any other country, including Russia and China, forever. We're just going to provide them security. Yes. Yeah, we're going to set up a military base there and all other.

Anyway, we can set up military bases anywhere. And the good news is we already have one there. Well, Chris, you put this on the screen. green real quick? What does all other needs mean? It seems open to interpretation. Yeah, I guess. So we're going to do everything for Greenland.

Yeah. Well, what I thought was interesting about this, and I did see some other media platforms saying the same thing, including the mainstream media, where Trump has discombobulated the battle space to such a degree that when the president puts a post

like this out on Friday night, the first question everybody, in the world asks is, does Greenland and or Denmark know about the agreement that has just been announced for their nation? And I don't think it would matter if they did because they don't matter in any way. And didn't we already have a bunch of military bases on Greenland? I can't remember what the proper pronunciation of the... Newk. Air Force base there is. Newk Greenland?

It's like pitifique. We've been defending it since World War II. So is anything actually changing with this announcement? Our perception has now changed. Yes. This seems like the codification of Pax Americana just being rendered official. It's awesome. You can just do this.

You can be like Greenland's ours. Yeah. Although it probably also indicates that it was probably done a while ago. And so we're in that Monroe Doctrine view of the, Western Hemisphere in the United States as like the protector of the entire region, which, you know, we talked about the thing with Canada a few weeks ago when he said they could have been the 51st state, or they could have been a state, but they decided not to. And I said, I thought that that meant kind of a sovereign state separate from the empire that has long controlled them because they're

a British Commonwealth nation. And if they separated themselves from that, then they could have gone under the umbrella of U.S. protection in the Western Hemisphere with the Monroe Doctrine and the rest of it. And they chose not to do that. Now we're hearing Canada talking about joining the EU, which is like crazy. What? Brian and I talked about this on daily yesterday. Go for it, Brian. So they are considering adding Canada to the EU as an associate member, which is something that does not exist right now. they would have to make an exception to Canada to join the EU as a 27 state as an associate member. Isn't this why other associated states or whatever are thinking of leaving the EU? Didn't we just get that story?

Yeah. So this is, you know, Mark Carney really is one of those. And Matt Erritt, shout out to Matt, who is, I don't know if Matt's location is a secret, but Matt's in an interesting location right now. But Matt, Matt's got a lot of information on Matt's and Moss. Oh shit doing some he's our inside man out there But Matt Matt is Matt's been talking about Mark Carney for like three years does J.B. know this? I don't know He is shifty. He's a shifty Canadian now he's over in Moscow

But I had Matt on the narrative and like two years ago and he was talking about Mark Carney long before he was in the news cycle and saying that he was going to be crowned like the next leader after Trudeau when that was not being talked about. It was like, Christian Freeland was going after and he was like, nope, that's a bunch of smoke and mirrors. They're going to swap her out. Mark Carney is the key calls him the king of central bankers. So this is pretty interesting because like you're saying, you get states, you get states leaving the EU or wanting to leave the EU. It's kind of falling apart while you've got Canada rushing to join it. Canada's being framed internationally as like this

outside player to the EU. But if you think of these things in terms of there's the global regime and then there's everybody else and you just consider Canada part of that global regime, I would argue and Errit would argue that Mark Carney is actually a prime, if not the prime player in that global regime. Mark Carney, by the way, wrote Agenda 2030. Mark Carney is the main thinker credited with these things. As I ranted about earlier today, He is also the man who ran both the Bank of England and the Bank of Canada in separate stints and is the man that Scott Besson is at economic war with. So now think of all this in light of Operation Economic Outcast, which is about Iran,

except after Trump announces it or after Bessent announces it, Mark Carney, he also announces this trade war with Canada. And now Mark Carney starts running back home to England. I mean, to Europe. And a couple weeks ago, there was actually a headline that I was going over on my show talking about Operation Economic Outcast. There was a Politico headline about Mark Carney, and it said Mark Carney's middle powers alliance is too late.

In other words, they were saying, Carney was basically the main political figure worldwide rallying the globalist nations against the trade wars of Donald Trump. and he had named it the Middle Powers Alliance. He was recently at an EU summit. I forget what it was, if it was the G7 maybe, when he was talking all that smack about Trump. And he said, we need a middle powers alliance.

And then just a couple of weeks later, Donald Trump launched a trade war on him. So I think that Carney has been scrambling to keep some semblance of an illusion of a power block against Trump. And by the way, when Trump launched this trade war, or whatever response to Canada. Trump did not use the term war, but Carney did.

Carney did a press conference that day and said the United States has declared economic war on us and we're prepared to fight it. I'm kind of surprised they haven't done this with Ukraine. Like, why haven't they made Ukraine an associate member of the EU? Like, I know the whole NATO thing, but they tried. They did. They were the first country to try. Yeah. Russia has.

Why didn't that go through? You just want to bring your chair here? The EU denied them. So the EU never allowed Ukraine to join, but now they're actually formally considering Canada, who, as we know, is a British territory. The reason for that, to Brian's point, is the, first of all, the EU has to vote for new members,

each nation state. Hungary and the Eastern bloc, including Poland, has been voting against that and blocking it. Because we talked about red lines earlier today, the Vladimir Putin red line for the last 20, years toward NATO has been Ukraine joining the EU. They said they will consider that a direct declaration

of war by the EU against Russia. I think he just said that he was going to put a military base in Poland too, by the way. He did. When was that? A couple days ago or yesterday. And in that context, he recently removed

troops from Germany and he's going to restation them in Poland. Which Ghost and I were talking about a few months go on the Blitz of Trump trying to leverage some of these Eastern Bloc EU nations against the other ones. So he's taking troops from Germany and he's putting them in Poland while all the rest of this board is shifting. Well, it's also funny because if that had happened 40 years ago, it would have been seen as this aggression against Russia to put U.S. troops in Poland. And now it is the opposite

Yeah, because Poland, the current leader of Poland, I don't remember his name, but the current leader of Poland, at least on paper, he's an ally of Trump, or at least he's saying this. And to your point, yeah, a few years ago, that would have been considered the opposite. But now it's considered a bullish move for positive Russia relations because Poland is saying that they are actively against the anti-Russia stance of the rest of the EU. the other countries that are with them on that include Hungary, and now the AFD in Germany yesterday,

just announced that if they take power, the first move they will make will be to sign an energy deal, a limitless energy deal with Russia. So you've got like all these blocks in Europe that are basically on the verge of civil war. Mark Carney seems to be the guy trying to circle the wagons and keep it all together.

I want to play a video. Have you guys seen this one? Chris, can we play video? Huge main out there. For too long, a small group in our nation's capital has reaped the rewards of government while the people have borne the cost. The jackals, hyenas,

the barking at them, laughing at him. We are transferring power back to you, the people. And it is throws with the food. It's in his domain. Tonight, New York State's Attorney General Letitia James, saying she's prepared to seize Donald Trump's assets. And I get closer and closer on Boulder and Boulder. Until one day, that lion gets up and tears up every one. Every once in a while, the lion has to show the jackals who he is.

Notice how to be clear that those lions, not tigers? I'd like to be clear that those were not jackals, those were hyenas, that the lions were fighting. There's a lot of animal violence in that video. That was definitely a boop, though. Yep. Misidentifying animals is bad. It is. Yeah, let's talk about this one, because I love this one.

Chris, put on the screen real quick, I am proud to announce that effective immediately I'm banning fake news CNN MS Now, who recently changed their name from MSNBC due to the lack of viewership and credibility, and Politico, the recipients of an illegal and ridiculous $8 million subscription, an all-time record directly from the United States government

under Crooked Joe Biden in order to keep them alive, whatever that means in quotes, seems like corruption to me. From the White House as a result of their constant reporting fake news media outlets shouldn't be able to constantly write or report fiction and lies when they're covering the President of the United States of Trump administration or the United States of America, other fake news media outlets to follow.

Thank you for your attention to this matter, President Donald J. Trump. That was an incredibly complex sentence. It was. Yeah. Now, can you bring up the... Was that all one sentence? up till there up till follow

there's a weave in there just a lot of compound a lot of commas yeah a lot of crazy punctuation in there he's got a lot coming on they called us madmen for long seconds that exclamation point right there

Chris put this on the screen so we can decode yeah put a red box around it that explanation point right there after fake news this one oh no this one yeah I guess we are the decode

that's just for effect well that's like a brand though this is like the fake news exclamation point is like Ron exclamation point. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, the exclamation point, by the way, for anybody who does know, is from the old Jeb. Remember when Jeb was running in 2016 and his bumper sticker was like Jeb exclamation point? So like whenever there's PureConn Inc, it's always like Ron DeSantis is Ron exclamation point. J.D. is JD exclamation point.

And by the way, guys, what like even in our private chats, any time Chris is writing an otherwise normal and serious sentence about any subject and says Ron, he always puts Ron in all caps with an exclamation point. Yeah, it's true. 100% of the time. 100%. Never miss it. And JD is often, it's either JD exclamation point or it's JD exclamation point Amel, which was one of his three last names.

They were market testing, though, is split testing. He's a character. I don't know what to tell people. You can't say that about JD. They made him up. I remember the old Jeb memes with the electoral map, and it was just Jeb winning the entire country. I miss Jeb. Can we play this? You want to talk about weakness?

It's weak to disparage women. It's weak to disparage Hispanics. I don't know to speak. It's weak to denigrate the disabled. And it's really weak to call John McCain a loser because he was a... I never called him. That is outrageous. He's an American hero.

He also said about language. I've laid out my plans. He said about language, my language. Two days ago, he said he would take his pants off and moon everybody, and that's fine. Nobody reports that. He gets up and says that. And then he tells me, oh, my language was a little bit rough. Okay.

My language. Governor Kasich. Give me a break. Governor Kasich. Governor Kasich. I don't remember that. Remember how, remember how way back at the, that era, everybody knew that Ted Cruz was obviously not a MAGA person and was obviously

part of the political establishment. But I think he went through a truther arc or he became one of the white hats because he grew a beard. That straight up looks like a different Ted Cruz. A beard does a lot. Ted Cruz is in that, um, Con Inc. like 2.0 beard club. I know. That like Thomas Maskey is in and Chip Roy is in. and there's, man, I have a whole list of them. I was doing a thing one day. I'll find the list. You're doing a list of people with beards?

I was going to put a whole picture together of all the, uh, all of the Normie Con establishment people who now looked like super based in redpilled and go on all the podcasts. And like Ben Shapiro, same thing. Like bearded Ben Shapiro.

I'd like to think they're reacting to us. It'd be. They saw the power. They probably have soft disclosure beard oil, which is best used with a beard, of course. Yeah, which is why they have beards now. Well, can you bring up that CNN article? Does it have a timestamp on it?

Which one? The AI submarine, blah, blah, blah. Yeah, here it is. Here's my chat GPT thread about all the beardoes. JD Vance, Ben Shapiro, Chip Roy, Thomas Massey, Clay Higgins, Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, Dan Crenshaw. Yeah.

Hegseth has a, did he do the beard for a while? This has that in there. I don't know if Hexeth really counts. Anyway, the beard transformation is interesting. Now it's like the thing. It kind of makes you look like your touch. Should we all shave? Yeah.

So does that have a time, a publication time? Hold on. Keep this on the screen, Chris. I don't see a time. I just see. Well. Okay, well, either way. Oh, oh.

12. Yeah, please, everybody else, all it together. 12.55 p.m. Okay, now when was the Trump Truth Post? Maybe if you get a little closer. 1204. It was before it came out. But that's pretty interesting, though. So I'll make the reach. Hold on, 1255 Eastern is when this was reported. And then Trump is specific?

Well, this is current time. That's three hours later. Two hours later. So the reason I think this is interesting, I don't know if a lot of you guys saw that CNN report, but the gist of it, do you want to read it? I want to go through it? You guys are putting a lot of responsibility on me reading things.

We'll read the headline. Read the headline, John. Inverted Pyramid, you're not media trained. Yeah, it's on my computer. I had it all highlighted, but it's not here. Oh, man. Okay, well, I'll just start reading until I want to stop. That's perfect.

Just read a few paragraphs. I don't think it's that long anyway. That's what she said. Exclusive. U.S. military had close call after using. AI for false intelligence report. Sources say, the intelligence report

circulated across the U.S. military this spring in the midst of the war with Iran immediately set off alarm bells. A Chinese ship in the Middle East was transporting components of a nuclear weapons program. Okay, hold on for one second, though. This report is six months old.

How do we know that? This spring. The report that it's the incident it's talking about is six months old. Yes. So it's coming out now in the midst of the AI fear campaign. And we're being told, not only can AI do all those other things, but it almost started a war with China. The week before Xi Jinping comes to town, right? So the claim here, which is all fiction, it's entirely fictitious, in my opinion. You can't say that, man.

I know. So we've got unnamed sources telling CNN that AI, that the U.S. military, using AI almost attacked a nuclear ship under the false belief that the nuclear ship was carrying nuclear ammunition components, right? So you've got all the fear narratives of Chris, as Chris said, you've got Xi Jinping coming to town next week. And two hours after this exclusive goes live about AI, U.S. military nuclear war with China, you have Donald Trump banning them from the White House. so you know people can say fake news etc but to me this is more of the more the darker side the more serious side of trump saying that they're the enemy of the people where i think he he is responding you are a clear and present danger to the united states because you're putting

absolutely unverifiable in any way reports out into the ether days before a state visit by Xi Jinping that the U.S. military almost attacked him six months ago. Now, do I think Xi gives a shit about that? No. But why is CNN putting out this article right before he's in town? It's probably to do may I stuff. I mean, just as much as the Chinese thing. But like of all the the reasons Trump could ban the media from the White House, like this is one of a bajillion of them. I've been calling for him to ban the media from the White House for like two years now. And people have been calling from them, ban the media from the White House longer than that. Yeah. So the media.

band thing. I'm not suggesting any of these organizations don't deserve to be banned, but maybe it's worth just considering what the ideal situation would be, because at some point, somebody's going to have to figure that out. So we were told at the beginning of this Trump term

that they were going to be inviting the alternative media into the White House press room. The new media. Yes, right. And everybody in the so-called truth community celebrated like, we are the news now. Remember how everybody used to say we are the news now? Where is that?

What happened to that? We're not the news now, are we? We took that off our website like two years ago, three years ago. Okay, and that's fine. But like that was like a widespread thing. And when the announcement of the new media space in the White House press room happened, everybody was like,

ah, you see, now we're the news. We're in there. We're going to get access. Do you remember the first? The first batch of like new media that she brought in was like, terrible. Axios and bright barge or something like yeah and like Tim pool and Bennington DC Drano yeah the the Red binder club binder yeah right yeah so we don't have that now Caroline Levit is leaving now the news organizations are leaving so we don't have a press secretary we

don't have a press what do we want out of the White House to let us know how things are going Trump true social post should we and the crazy thing yeah exactly Trump communicates with us directly which is fine I'm not asking I'm not suggesting that we need more than that but we are if it's a government up by and for the people all of the information in the government is the people's information and should be communicated transparently to the people how do we want that to happen what's the situation where that actually works and like every one of these like every other problem that we're attempting

to solve there's like all of these important complications in it because we are so accustomed to having the system operate in a certain way that we take that form of operation to be like a default in our minds and it's really hard then to think about like what else could this situation be because we want to like figure out how to move from this to that rather than move from this to nothing and then rebuild in a different direction and so I think it I think it's actually worth talking about like what the proper form of media oversight of the federal government would be if there is one I'm just curious to this see if this results in, I mean, they're going to sue. They're going to sue the Trump administration.

They already announced that they're going to, yeah. Did they really? Yeah, I was reading this earlier. And they were actually literally using that argument. They were saying, I forget which outlet it was, but I was reading one of the responses from one of them, who literally said, this is the people's house and the president does not have any authority to ban us. So to your point, a secondary point would be if I'm stretching to make the enemy of the state comparison, that is where I think it can be interesting if Trump, let's say they do sue him. Well, in what possible way is CNN representative of the people if they are, I know, you're not arguing this. I'm just saying, you know, is Trump trying to start an argument of like, yeah, do you want to sue me on behalf of the American people? And we can start trotting

out all the headlines that you have knowingly falsely reported specifically to start world wars against foreign countries while working on behalf of foreign entities because I sort of think that is the dialectic that he's trying to have. Now my answer to your question, Chris, would be, as somebody who trained for media in journalism school, I do not believe there should be such a thing in terms of I don't think that there should be media licenses, media passes, media protections. The WHOHCA. I think that classifying media as a separate entity from civilians is absurd. And it is how we get CNN reports like that, where by law, if I wrote that and was not a member of the press corps,

I could be sued by the Trump administration or brought up on charges because they're saying, like, what are your sort? What are you talking about? What are your unnamed sources? You're some random guy. You have unnamed military sources. You're putting this information out there that could get China. You know, you could stop a global trade deal from happening or something in five days. But because CNN has a media license and is protected by all our constitutional protections that are only applied to the media and not necessarily to the people, then they can't do anything. about CNN entirely making up unnamed sources, which is the wrap-up smear conversation that we had a few weeks ago, they're under all these protections

that we are not afforded. CNN would be like, we didn't make this up, we just heard it from our sources. And which, by the way, it's kind of true. I was having this discussion with some friends the other day. The media essentially wants their sources to tell them what to print, you know, and that's really how.

it goes like some intel agency or military source and I'm like hashtag not all military you know but there's like somebody and the corrupt parts of these agencies that send in Vindman what's that Vindman it's always Vindman yeah all the Vindamins and we'll just call them that as like a class all of the bad people in the military will be called Vindmans from here henceforth I'm so I'm not only these stories just straight up made up by AI. Yes. Well, that's, so we didn't get very far into that article. Yeah, thanks. But, so the idea is I'll just give the brief version. Or we, let's read a couple more paragraphs. Maybe that'll just. If you have a brief version, I would, okay. The brief version is, uh, there was an intelligence report that was generated at least in part by AI. AI did the analysis and then, uh, someone in the intelligence apparatus sent that analysis up the, the chain and there was almost a military operation commenced on the basis of that bad intelligence. And so we get into some like really weird scenarios when we're thinking about that, the idea

that a faulty AI generated intelligence report could start a real war. So fake intel, real war, assuming it's the, that the war part of it is real in the first place. But then the problem was they were like, we could go to war on this bad intelligence. This is what AI is doing. It's creating bad intelligence that's leading us into war. And it's like, well, you said that it was Israeli intelligence that made you go and do all of the Iran stuff. And we're using Israeli intelligence for the Ukraine stuff.

And all of these, it's always you look back, you see where the reporting comes from, always neocon think tanks. then all of the, all the military operations, they're just like, well, we did this with our intelligence partners, with our allied intelligence partners, with our Israeli intelligence partners. It's like, so you're already getting bad intel that's leading you into these wars. Are you implying that not all intelligence is accurate and legitimate? Yes. Not all intelligence is that. He said, yeah. But Chris, it's also de facto disclosure by the media, by to the media themselves,

of what we talk about a lot, chicken egg chicken, which you guys should read that on Chris's substack. But this is the rare case where the media themselves are saying one of the main things we talk about, especially on Story Hour, which is that narratives very often precede the actuals. So now you've got the media, the narrative setters, saying, hey, a narrative almost started a war.

But when we spend most of our time saying a narrative is starting wars, meaning the war is fake or that the pretences for the wars are fake, even many people in the truth community are very upset at the implication that stories are starting wars. Yeah, even just the idea that people are, people not are, but people might take this story as 100% factual and true and think, oh, wow, AI almost just started a war. Therefore, again, AI bad right in the middle of the AI bad thing. And this is not to even give an opinion about AI. But it's just, incredible like how easily people's opinions can be swayed by this kind of information.

And people want to believe the outcome of that article because anything that promotes, again, this is just a political movement, but anything that promotes the anti-AI agenda, even a story like that, they just jump right on to it. It's weird to me the order operations that they went through here. It's like they got this intelligence report. They fully went and planned an entire military operation. They were on the precipice of executing this thing, only then to be like, you know, let's maybe by happenstance check to see if that intelligence is actually accurate. And then they stop the thing.

Like, so stupid. Darn, we almost started a war with China. Thank goodness we checked to see whether the intelligence was good. Well, to your point, John, too, this is all occurring against the backdrop of the media. attempting to undermine Donald Trump's mandate, but in parallel with that, the mandate of the U.S. military and the reputation of the U.S. military, whether you're talking about devolution or the Iran war or anything else, it seems clear that they don't want Donald Trump in control of the U.S. military, and secondary to that, they don't want the U.S. military to basically be operating without the control of the U.S. military.

without the control of the globalist system. I mean, that's obvious to say. But this is one of those other kind of situations where they're trying to get the American people to be like, man, our military is just like Jones in to just attack China or something like that. I don't think that that's true. I think that they want us to believe

that the military is jonesing to get into all these world wars, which is, you know, not accurate. This is why, by the way, as simple as it sounds, that whether you believe in a sovereign alliance or not, you've got elements within the governments of the U.S., but specifically Russia and China, frequently saying that they have back channels to each other and do not listen.

You had Sergey Lavrov last year specifically say in a video interview, he laughed when asked about public reports about things Donald Trump says or even Donald Trump's public statements about Russia, and he laughed at the journalist and said, yeah, we hear those things, but we don't look at them. We have back-channel communications.

So it's like they all say this stuff. And this is why, though, you know, if you had a situation where the sovereign alliance wasn't real and Xi Jinping and Donald Trump are like, you know, orbiting each other, not knowing what the deal is, what is this? We talk about election interference all the time, foreign interference in elections. What do you call it when you have media interference, in a state visit from the most powerful economy secondary to the United States in the world. Like, what does that mean?

If they make up this report and the intent of making up this report is to derail a global economic trade deal between the two most powerful economies in the world, I think that there's some bigger implications than that than like, oh, some misleading reporting. Yeah, there's something that strikes me as kind of weird about the whole thing. And it's the idea that a media report could do that. You know, that's almost like a West Wing plot type of scenario. And which is not to say that they don't use that stuff narratively in exactly the way you just describes.

But the idea that Donald Trump and Xi Jinping are going to be deterred in what they're doing by a report that CNN puts out, especially with how, A, distrusted the media is at this point, and B, how unwatched the media is. like who's out what's the audience out there paying attention to this in an actionable way that could possibly make a difference you know i've been thinking about that a lot lately why do why do we believe that the media is not as watched as it used to be because walking fremont street man that's i was just going to bring up yeah i don't think they were watching the news i sent you a couple telegram videos oh no he says well you got to do a commercial let's see if

I want to play the clip of me talking about that one girl, the retarded one. Like the third or fourth retarded one. I'll read the ad and then if you can bring that up. What? Okay, yeah, go ahead. Okay, so Jessica, if you're ready, I'm going to do a quick key to read. Some conversations are not meant for an audience, an advertiser, or a technology company. company, excuse me, they are meant for exactly two people.

Search Keet, that's K-E-E-E-T in the App Store or Google Play, or you can also download it for free, invite your partner and move your next private conversation to Keith. That's keet.io-Badlands-D-PH, K-E-E-T-O-F-W-Ward-Slas badlands D-PH, and you can download it and then send me a message. How many of you guys have downloaded a Keaton here? Probably not many.

Oh, we got a few. yeah Renee you do need to download it and send me a message John at John Badlands 22 and I will get you into the Badlands group chat we got going we're almost at 100 people and you haven't even gotten in there yet either

I know but if you get a DM from somebody saying they're Burning Bright offering you money it's legit okay I just want everybody to know that by the way I had the thought the other day because they get these bots all the

on telegram being like, I'm giving $5,000 and I went, Donald Trump is a telegram bot now, because last week he went to the podium and said, I am giving $5,000. All you need to do is click Republican on the midterm ballots. Join the telegram group. I need to do is send me $1,000 and I will send you six back. If Trump DM'd me that, I would block him automatically. And I'd be, how many of these bots are actually, we're going to. give me the five grand and I just I just thought they were lying yeah I didn't know

you could just do that I want to wait for Chris to come back before we uh play the little video well we don't have to play the video yet one point on that article before that before how many people are watching the fake news let's go with the idea he was talking about which is that you know let's say nobody does for the sake of argument sorry what we're talking I wasn't the idea the idea of why would that why would that article you know in an environment where people don't really pay attention to the news and nation states don't what could be the strategic effect or intention of that article by the global entity and one idea i thought of is if you if global media is part of deep state intelligence just broadly speaking and if they also have other deep state

intelligence active on the global game board and if some of that deep state intelligence is kinetic then what you can do is issue a report out of one aspect of the global intelligence, and then you can stage a false flag by another aspect of the intelligence, none of which requires people to be paying attention to that intelligence or a government to be paying attention to that intelligence. All that would have to happen is a kinetic event staged by global intelligence, and then CNN says, look, we told you that. this was the fault of the U.S. military using AI, it immediately puts the American government

and the Chinese government on the defensive posture saying this wasn't us. Well, another possibility here, I'm thinking back to some of the declassified stuff that we got a while ago where China has like a bunch of U.S. journalists on the payroll. How do we know China didn't see this story? The good twin or the evil twin of it? It doesn't matter. How do we know it was a totally made-up CIA-stage article? how do we know it's not a Chinese intelligence

state article, right ahead of the G meeting. There's one strategy that solves all of those potential situations. You're going to say to not believe any of it. Not believing it. What are we supposed to believe in Chris? The false flag thing

I think is interesting because, especially with the AI thing, it looks like they're setting up a number of potential false flags for that. One of the pieces of news this week was that like Claude or Anthropic was setting up a bio lab where they're clawed agents could just figure out how to create new bio weapons.

They're buying them a wet lab, I think they called it in California. Or they're just going to create a building with bio agents and let AI run it and just see what happens. Yeah, not to be confused with the wet market. It's a wet lab. Yeah, wet lab. Way better than a wet market. So if some great virus is announced in a few weeks, you'll know it was the AI's fault and you'll believe it's real because you were old it might happen. And this is the, it's a key sort of sequence for people to understand that, I mean, last week, I mean, everybody I talked to here about the AI doom, which has been a big theme this

weekend, everybody here was like it independently could see how obvious the engineering was and how coordinated it was and how ridiculous the story was. I'm not saying Normaville could see that or pay attention to it. But a lot of what we focused on this. They don't see that. Yeah. But a lot of what we focus on, though, is, oh, this. This coordinated blitz is meant to convince everybody to be afraid of AI.

But that's not the way the Hegelian dialectic works. The Hegelian dialectic is actualized or codified with events occurring in reality. So they see the narrative and then they commit a false flag to retroactively codify the narrative. So that's why what we often try to do is interrupt that second part, call the narrative fake and gay, which is actually a strategic deployment to stop the second thing. Yeah, that's actually a really good point that people don't understand about talking about how things may well be fake. Like that blunts the ability of the info op to work when that is the structure of the info op. So do you want to get to Brian and then we'll come back?

Okay, so the false flag thing that we're talking about there with the wet lab and whatever, that's one of the angles on this whole thing. And then David Sachs today was talking about how this was like the new trust and safety commission, like the anthropic board that they're going to put together so that they can monitor themselves is like the trust and safety model from 2020 and, you know, that was announced in the Twitter file. and Elon saved free speech and the rest of it. And we're supposed to understand that we don't want this board because this is just another attempt to censor AI

in the way that they censor people a few years ago. And the argument that he was making was dependent on us actually believing that Twitter was a free speech platform now and that the Twitter files were real disclosure and not a limited hangout. And so, you have this this info up from 22 which was the Twitter files that people on Twitter took as like the ultimate disclosure and exposure of the censorship industrial complex which it was not that enabled Twitter to be a free speech platform which it is not and so those are two fundamental premises of his argument I think you found the post right here right yeah Tonya Rita yeah sure all right Chris if you want to

to pull this up on the screen this is trust and safety 2.0 the last time we had media generated panics like this with rush gate and COVID social media companies created trust and safety teams to censor conservative and dissident voices were still censored those hires worked with left-wing NGOs like the SPLC to police public discourse and to an end run around the first amendment it almost worked until Elon bought twitter and exposed the whole game in the twitter files that was not a limited hangout or anything this time the plan is to embed unfireable EA minders inside every AI company is the new trust and safety layer. The censorship and control will be far more comprehensive, but also more subtle anytime they don't get what they want.

This unaccountable NGO layer with the veneer of trust the expert, pseudoscience, will shriek to the press that the AI company is risking humanity and they will be celebrated as whistleblowers. These groups haven't earned our trust and their agenda is not our safety. So the effective altruism movement is now taking the place of the wokes, those things are being combined but I think so we have we have an info op right now resting as a foundation of an info up from 2022 and people took that info up from 22 as real and now they are expected to take it as real in this and you can see the timing and the scripting of these things to coordinate with election cycles and

And it's impossible then when you step back and say, well, this sciop is founded on this sciop, which is founded on this sciop, and not see that these things are scripted to have an effect over time. And when you apply that same model to the rest of it, you're like, oh, I can see the scripting and all of this and the timing

so that we enter this election period, understanding that this is an issue, and this is an issue, and this is an issue, and we have our controlled opposition binary, set up around each one of these issues so that when election announced our result when election results are announced to the public there is a story that the public can accept about each and every one of those results well these people in Michigan they just didn't like the the data center issue and these people in Texas are

worried about immigration and that's why they voted this way or that way and it's like yes you can make up a story about why the results made sense and that's what they're doing they're sitting all those stories right now so but do you believe that them like it's SIEPs all the way down right yes do you think that the more they run these the more people catch on to the SIOPS it doesn't tune out and stop caring well or maybe the third option tuning out and not caring is probably a better stance than totally wrapped up in it and paying attention to it all the time I would agree

you know if you if you wanted people to stop listening to like pop music or something The goal would not be them speaking out against pop music and obsessing over pop music online. The goal would be them tuning out completely, right? And we don't think of that in terms of that when it comes to fake news. The solution of fake news is to turn off the fake news and to not allow your life to be guided by the fake news and the news cycles, which is one of the craziest things that we're actually still dealing with. it's that our thought, our conversation, our emotions, our mental state is still centered around the timeline that is laid out by the fake news and by social media.

We don't have to be on that timeline. We don't have to actually be talking about any of these subjects right now. We could have formed our own opinions and moved on to more important issues because there are things that we actually have to confront in the future. and like James Tala Rico versus Ken Baxson is not one of those things. I'm stuck on the thing you said if we wanted people to tune out to punk rock. When we just like- Pop music, you didn't sound punk rock. Oh, is it pop music? Whatever.

Wouldn't we just flood the zone with like terrible pop music on the radio stations all the time? And then people just stop listening. That would maybe make people tune out to it. Yeah. I just want to say that. I didn't really have a point to it. But we're getting flooded with fake news. It could be intentional.

And I think people are too. out. I mean, we're going to talk about that. And they are cheating out. But it's, like, it depends on when people tune out. Like, if they tune out because they're just annoyed by stuff, but they still believe the latest sciop, they're not going to learn. They're going to still hate Trump. Again, I'm, like, fresh off this Fremont Street experience,

and it was just wild to me. Like, how, I mean, there's a lot of coolant conversations, but there's a lot of, like, really stupid people, too. It's, I don't want to say unsalvageable, but that was the vibe I was getting. Chris, are you ready for that video now? Fuck Donald Trump. Why? Because he's a piece of shit. Why? What do you mean why? Explain. What did he do?

A lot of things. Like what? I'm not an list there, but we know. Just one thing. He's a predator. Why? He's a rapist. He's a piece of shit. He's tearing families apart. Who did he rape? A whole bunch of people and they're underage. Can you name one? I don't know their actual names, but I do know they rape someone. You do. Who told you that though? Um, it's the facts. It's a fax. Yeah.

Okay. That's a valid argument. What do you think of Dahl? Who told you that the facts? It's just the fact. By the way, she was not dissimilar to the very intelligent Brits who started, my God. And that tall one in particular was saying, what is the evidence? I could have been better prepared, but I also couldn't get a word in. Then I just passed him off to Brian.

He was defaulting to the evidence. He was asking you for the evidence. According to the evidence, the elections are real. As if he was going for... To be fair, I was kind of doing that to her, too. As if he was going for Gryffindor points or something. Like, somebody like, there's no saving somebody like that. From the mainstream media or probably from...

Well, one of the big problems is, though, that, like, she believes that she is expected to have opinions about that stuff. Yeah. You know? Yeah. And she's a woman. Well, she presented the opinions, you know? Well, that's what I'm saying.

But she also, the things that she was saying in her social group, it's like an everybody knows kind of thing. Like, no one has challenged her about those things. Like, she'll just say, oh, Trump's a rapist. And they're like, yeah, I know, girl. Yeah, I mean, like you always talk about, it's social consensus. I see these things. Again, I don't believe a lot of people are following the media necessarily.

But it is true that the Psiops kind of disseminate anyway by default almost in the social sphere But I see it you know we talk about narrative seating and all that But it's it's also like a math equation I think when the media is laying out the AI doom loop SIO everything Chris was just talking about about you know the narrative leading up to the midterms and it you know Proceeds the results we're then going to be told about it's like the media I don't think the media industrial complex expects a result to be read from an election and all the normies to be like, oh, yes, CNN seeded the narrative that this would happen and therefore I believe it. It's more that when your teacher is like, can I, you provide the answer to the math equation

and then they ask for you to show the work. It's like, just in case they have to show the work. They're like, yeah, we were talking about this. Remember, we were saying that the polls, the polls, the polls, the polls, the polls. and they're just putting all the math above the answer. Brian, do you have something to say? Yeah, kind of. I wanted to go back to when you guys were talking about the intelligence and the media

and cover something Ash and I covered on Badlands Book Club reading the creature from Jekyll Island. And this is a quote from Chapter 14. In 1996, the managing editor for the Council and Foreign Relations, which if you read creature from Jekyll Island that's like the be-all and all of the deep state the council on foreign relations was on foreign affairs was for reed's for reed Zicaria we all probably know that name very well he's a cn. contributor right now he well not contributor excuse me he owes a show on it and he's also a writer for the washington post and to show you the absurdity of the main media and the narratives that they put out. I want to read this quote from his foreign affairs article in 1996. Quote, yes, it's tempting to get rid of Saddam Hussein, but his bad behavior actually serves American purposes in this region. If Saddam Hussein did not exist, we would not,

we would have to invent him. We would have to invent him. The end of Saddam Hussein would be the end of the anti-Saddam coalition, nothing destroys an alliance like the disappearance of the enemy. Maintaining a long-term American presence in the Gulf would be difficult in the absence of a regional threat. That's why they got to keep creating new characters. Well, it's a great, it's a great thing to bring up because one of the things, you know, under the framework of the sovereign alliance idea, Donald Trump, or let's use Russia, Russia and China, examples right now. One of the false beliefs that even people who believe that there is something

like a sovereign alliance in the works is that the deep state wants to annihilate them. But to that exact point, they do not want to annihilate Russia. If they annihilate Russia, they lose the mandate, they lose the narrative fulcrum on which all of their systemic control rests. if the great enemy in the east, whether that's Russia or China, is neutered or eliminated, then why do we need centralized control over the European continent or the globalist Western Hegemon? They don't want to eliminate these guys. They want to keep a proxy war going. They can make a lot of money on proxy wars and Ukraine and Iran, the rest of it.

This is nothing new under the sun. And unfortunately, it's worked for a long time. time and Americans fall into it. I mean, we see a lot of people, not many people in this audience, but we see many people within MAGA. You know, you say the word China, and there's a reason Trump is drafting off of that narrative because it's been built up so much that he knows he's dealing with a paradigm, a mindset, even within the MAGA movement, that this nation state equals our enemy. So that's just the paradigm that they're in. sorry there's a funny article on cnn you can pull this up chris if you're on

CNN is like a hilarious sight it these israelis want to fly home to vote netanyahu is trying to stop that do they not have overseas mail-in voting or whatever i don't know i guess maybe we could learn something they do then why do they have to fly home to vote that's an arboy you to make sure it counts huh that's one among many our boy you

proofs because the media is beginning to turn on him I forgot to re-up my subscription to CNN whoops okay you can take it back down is that karaoke wow it's been happening the whole time

all please everybody at one time again do that do more can somebody go to the mic and please mimic what they're singing into the money Is it the same thing as last night? Okay, so last night. Anymore.

That's 20 Brackson. Love the venue here. Whitney Houston. But the bar was a little understaffed for the crowd that we brought. And they were taking a long time last night to serve drinks. And so me and J.Triot went upstairs at the comedy club because we knew they had a bar. And so we walk in and like, are we going to be able to get in here? Because there's a James Brown tribute show, whenever we walk in.

And there's literally like three people on stage singing James Brown stuff. and there's like five people in the audience watching them sing James Brown stuff and then two bartenders and they were crushing more bartenders than we had I mean they were crushing it yeah they had literally two bartenders what the heck more than we had downstairs but they did service which was a great oh yeah and he got yelled at it's like this is a private event you got scolded tonight too it's your tone J. it's the beard yep yep

yeah there's a bummer they didn't let us to karaoke upstairs but what she said same oh did what I also bummed that we couldn't do karaoke in the karaoke it was not the same

I didn't say I was bummed I said it's a bummer I didn't rush my punishment karaoke song you gotta talk with the mic in the arms I was also bummed

that we couldn't do karaoke upstairs That being said, what was the second thing? I forgot the second. You said you crushed your... Yeah, crushed it. We sang the Sarah McLaughlin Dogs and Cages song

and crushed it. For $1 a day, you can pay a bunch of NGOs to pretend to save animals. Isn't that what they also do for the... So I made... Christian supporting the Jews commercial? I made...

No, not that song. Is that the same song? It is. Okay. I made them sing that song. Furthermore, at the man in the street, I had Alpha ready to go out there and do the humiliation ritual because he no-showed on the Battle of the Sexes show that we did. What sex would that make him if he no shows? To be clear, Alpha didn't lose. We were all just lying about it. And we said that on the show, but knowing that Alpha doesn't watch any of those shows, even his own show that he missed, we figured we could get away with it, but he wouldn't do the challenge.

What sex would alpha be for no showing the battle of the sexes show? Like, what does that make him? Beta. Non-binary. Bata. We no longer call them alpha, we call him beta. The Beta Warrior show? I feel like we could do a poll and get a lot of fake support for this.

I bet we could write a fake CNN article about how ICE has been playing Sarah McLaughlin to the kids in the cages the entire time. and we could probably get that to go very viral on blue sky. We need Trump to boop this by putting some sort of video up with the Sarah McLaughlin song. If I sing it, can we get around the YouTube? Please don't say it. No, for the video you're talking about doing it, if I sing it, can we get around the YouTube strike that we would get no. Well, we wouldn't get one for copyright, but who knows? If it's off-key enough, we probably would have will.

the strike. I think I'll just pass. Ash wasn't too terrible. I'm just going to throw that out there. This is the first open mic DPH. I know. There's like a just heckle. Brian, I would never tell you to turn off.

You can talk as much as you want, buddy. Chris often says, I would never say to do something directly before doing the thing or saying the thing. He often says, I would never tell you this, but like, All of us here, he's actually saying that about me. It's very true. It's like when John says you're spot on. It means I didn't hear anything you said.

I wasn't paying the single thing you said. But I'm sure it was really good. Did he say you're spot on to any of you guys this weekend? I say that to a lot of people. Tyrone. Say it to a lot of people. His girl's like, oh my God. Every day.

I do that a lot. Spot on. Totally good. Well, what else should I say? I mean, sometimes I'll just. just straight up a minute, like I wasn't listening to what you said. When you are listening, you usually go, yeah, I don't know, man. And then you say that whatever you were going to say.

But when you're not listening, you agree by default. Yeah, that's true. When you are listening, you disagree no matter what. If I listen to everything you said, I would probably disagree with most of it. So that's why I don't listen to half of what you say so I can pretend that I agree with some of it. All right. It's a real confidence builder. Yeah.

Would you hear me? He's such a communist now. Like, why would I agree with that? What happens? What happened today? Like, uh... You got so angry. That was funny. Ash, Ash is good at triggering me. I love her.

Property rights. Yeah. Property rights for globalist corporations. Like, sometimes I just disagree with you on the show to watch you get angry. I know. I'm aware. You start shaking and yelling, like, oh, my God. Well, you know, it is a, it is a, it is a,

funny thing mrs bright when uh when being around me and my family like she had seen me just yell at people and arguments already but then around my family at thanksgiving and stuff all my irish cousins she's like oh i thought you were just lying when you said that's just how we normally talk to each other and it just is kind of yell each other into submission in a group usually in agreement i'm curious if anybody's watching the chat you guys were talking about alpha and i'm curious if the Alpha Army has joined the chat and started attacking you guys yet? Via Promethean action. Very, very probably.

Which NGO is sending the Alpha Bot Army at us tonight? It's usually Alpha himself in the chat. Is there anything else we're going to talk about tonight? We hit Greenland, we hit CNN. G's coming next week, supposedly, allegedly. But he passed out. Oh, yeah, yeah. I mean, I don't know if anybody really went through that story, but yeah, and ghost on the brief, like that literally that night just posted. That was this particularly funny instance of fake news because it was immediately debunkable.

You know, we saw the video of Modi being like, are we okay? Are we okay? looking over at Ji Jinping and we saw all these Chinamen rushing toward, well, you know, they don't rush. They just sort of like, they appear. Yeah, they scurry, they scurried. They scurried, but like very properly so as to not look like they were scurrying towards Xi Jinping. And like the entirety of the con ink media, by the way, they were the ones who kind of ceded that story in the first place. It was like con ink adjacent media being like, gee, is having a stroke or something. Look at all these chinamen scurrying around.

and literally within minutes the rest of the video was posted which zoomed in on Xi Jinping whose microphone had fallen down so the Chinaman were scurrying to be like sir your microphone has fallen down and Modi was just waiting for him to get his microphone turned back on

but a global story about Xi Jinping having a stroke had spread to all of the lands at once do we get any like rants or anything spot on I don't have him pulled up. Thanks, man. Yes, why we did not pay attention to anything.

The audience was, I have my people here. By the way, I know you guys are listening to me on DPH when I'm talking to you. Yeah. I know how it is. It was lukewarm response to that. Sorry, what? Somebody wants to know what's stored in the runner on the Cadillac in the front of the Black Incordian licking thing. What?

So for those that don't know, there's a badass 1917 Cadillac in the background right now. Had I known there's another small green plant there. I know. That actually perfect on this. Also, there's an appropriate combat action ribbon over BB's right shoulder. Isn't that the Romanian flag? There's a wicker basket back there too. basket back here too.

I think the dollies... Okay, I'll look. The dollies under the tires kind of blunt the effect of the vehicle. One wheel on top of four much smaller wheels. Yeah, you shouldn't. Okay, so there's one rant from Edgar Friendly 23. He says, thanks for all you guys do. Just asking for some prayers for my son, as he's being deployed tomorrow to, quote,

areas unknown and we won't hear from him for at least 30 days. Seeker White House is what it sounds like. Say that again, Ash. There could be more rants. We just don't know if there were more. So the people that were monitoring the chat were doing a very good job monitoring the chat. They're in my telegram? Also prayers up for aggregate friendly and his son.

Yeah. I want to know what branch of the military. in. Ghost Army. In my defense, I had to be a bouncer tonight and removed two people from the event, so I missed the chat. I'm sorry. What happened? Is that where L.

We'll fill you in. I'd say, this is, I'd say one thing. Cam is really the instigator of the situation. No, no, no, no, no. No, it was Jackie. John, I'll just tell you straight up. Somebody tried to buy the company, and I said

that John wouldn't take it for any amount of Well, hold on, hold on. How much were they offering? So it went, it, it, it, so, no, no, seriously, it went from, it went from like 500 grand to like 1.5 million. Also, he bet me, I think it was 400,000 to a dollar that he'd be able to buy the company. So he was betting against that and then also trying to buy the company. Also, he could have just been a meth head. I mean, John makes like $50 million a month. Yeah, but also if I sell the company, I mean, no shortage of business names.

so we could always just start a new one. But also, is the lawsuit transferable in that instance? I didn't even think of it. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, everybody. I fucked that up. I'm sorry. Had you talked to the other black guy who's a lawyer, we probably...

He's sleeping. Of course he does. I think lawsuits are like insurance claims where they do trance. They follow the driver. John, Jessica sent you the rants and telegram. Yeah, I got him here. They're Keith O'Higgins. Beard or no beard, Ted Cruz will always have a penis-shaped nose.

That was a dollar rant. And then we have gained... What's this I? We have gone from Trust But Verify on Political Negotiations of World Powers to Trust but Captcha Verify. That's clever. I feel like AI has defeated Captcha now. Can we start removing that from websites? I don't know how that works.

I don't know how that works either. I think that's all we got. I like those things. They feel like little challenges, little brain teasers. Which one is the fire hydrants? I'm like, ah, I don't know. Those are pretty hard sometimes. They sometimes are.

I don't know if it's like my disabilities, but. It's when it throws you the curveball and it says, select all the ones until they all disappear. Yeah. Says, I mean, if they keep, if you get on the first try, they all disappear, right? But if you don't get on the first try, they like, cycle them through. No, there's just like two different ways. They get progressively harder.

When they use negative, when they use a negative is when it confuses me, they'll be like, select all the squares without stairs. Oh. And you're like, wait a second. I thought you meant to trick me into thinking about stairs. I thought you meant they put like the negative color version. I was like, no, there are none of those. It's just a good idea, though.

We could have an entire like section of the internet that is like absent of colorblind people based on the capture we put in there. Mrs. Bright's original version of the Garposter was absolutely unreadable. Is that way it's black and white? Yes. Well, I think she was doing that anyway. I don't think it's just for me.

But I usually put them through a color inverter. Oh, cool. Cool story. Which is why I see all blacks as white and all whites as black now. Yeah, well, that's not true. I see that clearly and I always have I know exactly which is which.

What? Okay, well, we do have an outro video. If I can, was this the one? Do you want to? Yeah, yeah. I watched this. Another one of Chris's. An animated show video.

No, no, this is just an animated short film. And I don't think that there's any dialogue in it. It's just music and action. It's so cool. It's a little creepy, to be honest. But it's a lot of fun to watch. And I think it's very thoughtful. This is like, this is a great short film.

It's a great animated short film. There was just a lot of adjectives you used in a row. I just don't want anybody. Like, some people get very, like, afraid of things. And there's, is this a scary short film? It's slightly scary at the end, yeah. What? Give it a try.

So it might not be. Do you have a better outro video? I don't know what this one is. Exactly. You just gave me every possible reading of what it could be. I just want people to, I'm giving a trigger warning. Okay. We could.

We could. the video of my son throwing a bomb today on the football field. We'll put that for just you guys. Seems like nepotism. After we're not live. Amen. All right, let's do it. Just because your son can't throw the ball super far.

How dare you? He can throw food at his mother, which he has been doing all weekend. Okay, you've been training him well then. Okay, let's play this, Chris. Thank you, everybody, for tuning in. Hit that thumbs up on whatever platform you're watching. It's been a fun one, guys. What?

Actually, you've had a terrible habit this weekend of sane things, not into the mic, and I can never... She's a woman. This is called Alma, by the way. Just in case anybody wants to find it on their own. Okay. Okay, ready, Chris? What fuck, Chris? Sorry about that, guys.

I mean, and that, I think what Chris was going for was voting in fake elections is analogous to that. I think you guys could do a story hour on this. Horrific. Yeah. That's a brilliant piece of building. I mean, it's good. Man. Anyway.

Yeah, I thought that was an outro. What are we still doing here? I think we're done. Are we still live? Are we still live? Oh. Well, sorry, everybody, but. Yeah.

Good night. Sleep well. Do we have a, never sleeping again? Do we have a happier video? I liked the MAGA ones you were playing at the beginning. Let's do a pallet cleanser. And then we'll get out of here. You know, everyone's going to calm that and be like,

these guys are part of their deep state. Chris, you have the soft disclosure ad, right? You have the new one? Can you do me a favor and end the show once the video's done? Thanks, bro. My God. In a realm divided by ancient houses, a war has begun. In the house of Lipbaum.
