I have great respect for knowledge fight knowledge I'm sick of them posing as if they're the good guys saying we are the bad guys knowledge Knowledge fight Need money Stop it and the and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and Hey everybody, welcome back to Knowledge Fight, I'm Dan. I'm Jordan. We're a couple dudes that like to sit around, worship at the altar of Selene, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones. Oh indeed we are Dan Jordan Dan Jordan quick question For you, so what's your bright spot today, buddy? My bright spot is there's a new season of the old people challenge Yes
Starting point is 00:01:17 Their rivals yeah, they're in teams of rivals. Oh my god. Um I think that There's a concern that I have that rival based seasons where you have to team with your arch rival. Yep. They tend to bring out petty drama. Definitely. And one of the things that I've liked about the old people challenge is there's a little people are a little more seasoned. They're a little more grown up sometimes. Sure sure sure sure. And I worry that those two things are going to work against each other. Okay. You know like old people being mature is not aided by You know, I work with the person you hate right? Right. All right. That is that is interesting. Although I mean there's
Starting point is 00:01:54 Maybe that's the ultimate test of maturity It could be maybe way we've been we've been spoiled because they haven't been put to the to the crucible of Actually being mature in a situation with the person who makes them most immature. Right. Maybe it'll be a series of people overcoming their differences and squashing beefs and growing up. That would be every single episode is a special episode.
Starting point is 00:02:16 If it was, I'd be fine with that. Everyone working out their differences. That would be an interesting show. It would be. While you jump off a building. Yeah, yeah, yeah Married in 24 hours or less kind of thing interesting cast. I guess yeah, it's fine I don't know I don't I didn't recognize a few of the people and I've seen every season of the show
Starting point is 00:02:35 I know there was there was some people where I was like I really think you guys might just be if they I didn't even really remember Frank if they could if they just put somebody On there and we're like this person's been on the challenge, and we're just really strong about it I think I would believe them even if they weren't yeah, I think I would just buy it sure so they could lie to me Yeah, why not? Yeah, I also don't know that I thought that Devin and Leroy were enemies We talked a little bit a little bit But this might be a this might be a setup to get Leroy the win
Starting point is 00:03:08 I think that the two of them are a very strong combination But yeah, I would I Devin's got so many other people who would be his archrival so many He's not not made any enemies. He's pissed off everybody. Yeah Yeah, I guess bananas wasn't available maybe He could be injured from the real people challenge. Yeah, I guess bananas wasn't available maybe. Sure. He could be injured from the real people challenge. Yeah. I don't know. Anyway, it's nice that that just started right back up. Yeah. Yeah. What's your bright spot? We have year round challenges. It's America's fifth sport.
Starting point is 00:03:38 It does seem like they're saying that. No, The Weeknd has a new album out. The Weeknd without the E? Without the E. The Weeknd. It's quite good. Oh. It's very good. I thought people didn't like him. I thought he fell out of grace. Oh, I don't know. I feel like there was a turn on The Weeknd. So The Weeknd's career, the thing I like about the album is that it reminds me of the early days Back whenever he did house of balloons my face when I'm with you Way back way back in the very beginning whenever people didn't even know who he was He was just the weekend and you didn't know he had a name and maybe he was from somewhere
Starting point is 00:04:18 But maybe he wasn't sure he could be anybody that kind of thing. He was very mysterious Yeah, yeah, and he had he had real dirty kind of songs that were sexy but in like a oh, this is a Coke filled like this is the bad night where you've had too much coke and you woke up and you're like ah It's a little dangerous, but you survived. Yeah, and then he turned into the the halftime show Super Bowl Michael Jackson yeah, yeah, yeah trying to do that thing This is kind of more returned back to the to the dirty sexy so I wonder if that was prompted by people not liking him
Starting point is 00:04:55 Probably I don't know anything about the guy on Starboy was a pretty good album What about the fucking star boy that was like ten years was him? Yeah, okay? I've heard that song in a fucking Walgreens That's the advantage of having the relationship with music that I do is that I've heard everything in a target or something But I have no idea who right right right that's perfect. Yeah, that's the way to go There's like a ton of the like sort of college rocky kind of songs. Yeah. I'll hear a song. I have no idea who did that. It's great. I'm free.
Starting point is 00:05:31 Back in the day whenever you used to have to know. Brutal days. Brutal days. You're just held back by that knowledge. Don't need to give a shit anymore. Nope. So now my knowledge is all about Alex Jones. Nice. And today we'll be taking a little journey through January 23rd, 2025. Wonderful. As we continue the march of the time after the inauguration.
Starting point is 00:05:54 Mm-hmm. Where Alex is really getting into the weeds in all of the major things that Trump is doing. Sure. Sure. So we'll see what he has to say today. But first, let's take a little moment to say hello to some new wongs. that's great idea so first Taco Bell presents the Anunnaki Supreme thank you so much you're now policy wonk. I'm a policy
Starting point is 00:06:12 wonk. thank you very much. thank you next five iron frenzy rules and Scott will never die thank you so much you're now policy wonk. I'm a policy wonk. thank you very much next shout out to my girlfriend Emily also has Dan made his own mustard he seems like the type Thank you so much. You're now policy wonk. I'm a policy wonk. Thank you very much listen Have you made your own most it? No, oh, but I did explore it. Okay. I did it's on the table No, I'd not anymore not anymore. No, but there was a short stretch of time where I was like it wouldn't be that hard Vinegar mustard, mustard, you know.
Starting point is 00:06:45 I could tweak a few things here and there, and I just never followed through with that. Same with making my own Giardinara. I was going to do that. It was too many steps. It was like four steps. We also got a technocrat in the mix, Jordan. So thank you so much to Steph says that if she doesn't get
Starting point is 00:07:02 the new technocrat drop back, she will go Donkey Kong, King Kong crazy in an amount of time yet to be determined. Thank you so much. You're now technocrat. This might be the right one. I'm not sure. I'm a policy wonk.
Starting point is 00:07:13 I don't like to hype things, but people are designed to hype. I am going to paint once a week on air and I'm going to let callers call in. We'll also take emails and request what you want to see me paint one two three Matt Damon there you go party time I'm gonna get in your guts and the Nazis in my view were thugs that shook people down did a lot of really bad things but they did good things too we're gonna stop dissing the Nazis all the time okay I'm thinking about doing some shows too where I run the whole thing myself, just hit record and sit in the dark with just a few
Starting point is 00:07:50 candles and candlelight and talk about the nature of the world universe. I mean you know a big old juicy ribeye folks is as good as you know sex with your wife and let's just get down to reality here. I'm going to go donkey kong king kong crazy in about 45 days. America sucks. We're all racists. It's over. It doesn't mean I want to go live, say, in some places in Asia where you get off the plane over there, folks. They karate chop you. Thank you so much. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:08:18 I forgot which drop was which and they're not labeled well. No, you nailed it though. Yeah, I got lucky. I got lucky. Absolutely. That song, Up to get lucky. That was the weekend, right? No, that was death punk No, I've heard it in a Walgreens. It is well, there you go So today we start off here with Alex and Trump as he did a little appearance Made a little appearance at Davos. Oh what we wait what gave a little speech for remotely at Davos Okay, and So this is big and Alex is thrilled about it. Oh, those are air raid sirens. And I've aired those
Starting point is 00:08:52 for years when we are in danger like the sword stinglling for the globalist. I watched Trump's 18 minute speech and then the press conference as a minutes ago was still going at Davos. Oh, having adrenaline rushes and Norfin dumps right now. I'm higher than a kite. No drugs needed. And he just declared them defeated, told them their plan to collapse the planet and starve everybody is over.
Starting point is 00:09:39 He said that their new world order is dead. This is fabulous because the repudiation of their system alone energizes our movement from super light speed to warp speed. So Trump didn't say much of that stuff. I don't know how much Alex watched, but I sat through the full 45 minutes, including the question and answer segment, and I didn't come away with the impression that he was telling them that their new world order system was dead. If anything, I think the tone was collegial, and it involved Trump discussing how they're
Starting point is 00:10:13 all going to do a lot of business in the coming years. In Alex's head, and the version of Trump he's built up for the audience to worship, this is a guy who would storm into Davos and tell them all to get lost. He would upend the whole thing because it was a corrupt system and he was the redeemer. But that didn't happen. He gave a speech about his policy ideas, was very polite to the rich elites he's friends with, and then took questions for half an hour. The problem is that Alex still needs to maintain the image he's built up for the audience.
Starting point is 00:10:40 So despite this being a fairly boring speech Trump gave at the Central Power Hub of the globalists and the fact that Klaus Schwab literally introduced Trump on stage, Alex has to tell the story as Trump going in there loaded for bear, but it's all just an illusion. It's crazy. It feels like just like not only should he not be giving a speech there or if he was giving a speech there, it should be cover for arresting all of those people and yeah isn't that what Alex wants it to be like there should be a giant trap door underneath all of their seats where Trump goes haha I've come to say hello and then they'll fall well and that that
Starting point is 00:11:16 would only make even more sense because Trump did it remotely yeah he wasn't even there so he could have said like a gas thing that comes out yeah yeah everyone's unconscious perfect time for it Yeah, but no instead Trump actually started the speech. I believe with him like a thing of like yeah I would have come I would have liked to come I would love to be there But you know it's so close after the inauguration I think it would have looked bad that kind of thing there my base wouldn't have allowed me to go travel to Switzerland That's genuinely a very funny thing to say I think that was what he was trying to get across.
Starting point is 00:11:46 Oh boy. Well, I mean, it's true. So this next clip, I'm not exactly sure what happens in it, I've forgotten. Okay. Because Alex is having this adrenaline rush. He's higher than a kite. And my label here is just,
Starting point is 00:11:58 Alex makes a bunch of gross noises. Great. So prepare yourself for that. I am ready. We had clips yesterday of the day most groups sing they've lost, the whole world hates them There's no clips today They're actually groveling. So whoa, I just got a supercharge. I mean
Starting point is 00:12:24 I'm not this is not an act right now. I can't do the show I'll have what he's having Oh They're dying right now Other grips been loose cool And now we're gonna rip their arms politically lovingly non-violently out of their sockets and gouge our eyeballs out with ice picks sure I Very interesting Hmm
Starting point is 00:13:20 You're gonna see it I Have thrown my full will against them for 31 years and you can mark this day as their tombstone that's only about 10% of how wild I can get Real Alex Jones All right, why don't we go for 20 then dickweed boy so that was his 20 that was his war face and his o face Badger like being someone who just works at the office there, so they're walking past the studio, and he's like or something and walking past the studio and he's like, bah, how stupid do you have to feel? It does feel, it does have the same feel of like,
Starting point is 00:14:08 if you're walking past and you've got a brown bag, you'd look at it and then throw it in the garbage can, you know, you'd be like, oh, I gotta quit, you know. It shows a hell of a day to quit drinking. Ridiculous, ridiculous. Like, there's IT people who work there, there's, you know, just normal people who probably don't care at all what
Starting point is 00:14:25 Alex is saying. And you just walk past the studio and he's like, coming on air. Yeah. Sometimes I think about- Coming violently and scarily. Yeah, no, no, no. Terrifyingly. Yeah. No. Have you ever seen the directors for an NFL broadcast? They'll do those things where they go behind the scenes and there's somebody who's got like 15 different shots and they're just on the ball just going like, oh, take a look over there and you can see that they've almost got a preternatural ability to see when the action's going to happen and you got the camera angle just right to see the action perfectly. You feel great.
Starting point is 00:14:55 What would you feel as the director of this show? Like, hey, can we go to camera three during... I would just be sitting there like Alex mistimed the commercial. Can we go to a soft yellow light for this? This growl is going a little long. So they go to commercial, he comes back and we got some rock. Okay. the You've had the globalist squatting on us There are mints filthy stinking weight With their rotting sweat dripping on our faces And now we have force them off of us and metaphysically culturally spiritually
Starting point is 00:16:20 ecclesiastically hands firmly around their necks. And now, with will and determination, we squeeze and press those carotid arteries in and stop the blood from flowing and look into their eyes and say, you want to destroy humanity? You want to poison and kill our children? You want to destroy our destiny?
Starting point is 00:16:48 No! No! No! You will die! I'd give Trump about a 97 right what is happening? 100% that's what you fucking got after that Violent murder fantasies weird noise 97% you know I was Somebody's happy I guess Jesus amazed oh My god, I thought it was a little early in the show for this. It was getting
Starting point is 00:17:46 Yeah, he was getting pretty deep into growly Fantasies and and shit a little earlier. Sure. It's just that adrenaline that you get when you see Trump give a boring speech at Davos But thankfully as the show goes on the adrenaline wears off. Okay now the massive Endorphin dump the strongest I've ever had. Hopefully it's dissipated a lot but it's I'm still just cross side right now. Thank you God. Because I just mean, we're being
Starting point is 00:18:29 destroyed by these people. I mean, they have killed so many of our people. They have wounded and abused us. They have poisoned the daylights out of us. They have. Just done evils that are so unspeakable right out in the
Starting point is 00:18:40 open, normalizing it, and they were trying to break our will and flip us into Stockholm syndrome. All of us and just make us give up. And instead to see humanity rise, the sleeping giant awaken with laser beams shooting out of its eyes is just beyond ecstasy and satisfaction. beyond ecstasy and satisfaction. And to really, really, really, really, really, really process that. My heart, my guts, my brain, my bones, even my old injuries just to feel so
Starting point is 00:19:19 good now that it's pleasure coming out. What? And my shattered arthritic hand, my leg down, pulsing with pleasure. I mean, this is a seismic spiritual flipping right now. It happened this morning in the last hour. I could feel it. They go, hey, you know, he's about to speak and I'm like, yeah, I knew that it's gonna be great. And then I was already like, trying to cover the news, trying to research. I was just like pacing around, because I felt a disturbance in the force. A good one.
Starting point is 00:19:55 The best. Trump has made my pain pleasure. What is happening? It's pretty nuts. Okay. Okay. Okay. happening. It's pretty nuts. I okay okay okay maybe maybe the the idea of the god king who was born who is prophesied to take down these very people going to them hat and hand band like hey buds love
Starting point is 00:20:16 you is enough to prompt an absolute psychotic break. It could be. I also have another theory on this. Okay. That will pay off in like probably our next episode. I'm withholding a little card that I don't know if I maybe I should just go ahead and tell you okay He does have a bit of a welt on his forehead and he apparently like ran into a door in the middle of the night So he might be concussed night. So he might be concussed. All of this might just be... He's just physically incapable of doing his job right now. He might actually have head trauma. But you know, that that that was not even like, oh, this could be anything.
Starting point is 00:21:00 Mm hmm. Head trauma should be specific. Yeah. Head trauma should be. Yeah, it was. It's yeah, there's... be anything. Head trauma should be specific. Head trauma should be... Yeah. On the next day's show at very least there's a very noticeable welt on his forehead. If you have head trauma and nobody can tell if your behavior is different, that's probably a sign you need something else to happen. When you have head trauma and people are like he's a little different. Yeah Maybe he's just a little on it today. That's not good. That's not good now
Starting point is 00:21:37 So Alex has a guest on the show and it is not someone who got pardoned for January 6th It is a Canadian fella who's saw fit to hire Tommy Robinson Hey, Lauren Southern just Just great hiring decisions made by Ezra Levant. So he comes in because he went to Davos. We asked him if he spoke to Donald Trump since the presidency. Real quick, he put out a video of him bothering Larry Fink. Larry Fink was walking around the streets, and Ezra Levant just followed him around and think did not respond to anything yeah so he's pretty proud of
Starting point is 00:22:11 that yeah we asked him 70 questions you know which one I forgot to ask him was about his former corporate video star I don't know if you remember this but the young man who shot President Trump in the ear, one inch away from murdering him, bizarrely appeared in a BlackRock corporate video. And I forgot about that in the heat of the moment. I've forgotten as well. And of course, also, he famously says we're going to use BlackRock's ESG control to control everybody's behavior. You're right. And Alex, how it works here the and mixes with us peasants. So we're sort of on the street waiting for it. That's how we got Albert Bourla a couple of years ago. That's how Larry Fink came out.
Starting point is 00:23:09 So the trick is you recognize someone you say, is that Larry Fink? And you only have a moment to jump into gear and try and come up with questions. That's why. You guys, let me tell you and your crew, Avi, you guys are the best on your feet. I would not do that good. Actually I mean, you guys just nailed them
Starting point is 00:23:27 and nail them and nail them. Oh my God. You have such an encyclopedic knowledge of this stuff, and I'm not sure if you want to play some of it to me, the highlight or the low light of our. Walking scrum with Larry. Think I mean, he really
Starting point is 00:23:41 said nothing to us. We just asked him questions and his bodyguard sort of shoved us around. But there was a moment where I could tell he was so frustrated because we were following him. His bodyguard- He takes a picture of you.
Starting point is 00:23:55 Yeah, he stops and he takes out his personal cell phone, aims it right at my face, snap, does the same to Abhi Yamini, snap, does it to our cameraman. And I'm thinking, I mean, is he gonna share this with who? Is he gonna send this to some attack dog? Is he gonna, and it was only later that I remembered that that corporate video he made contained, bizarrely, the guy who, almost like I was stumbling into some, maybe Black Rock is so big and dark and nefarious
Starting point is 00:24:27 That they have sort of a team of wet work experts Oh, there's no doubt about it. They got 80 80 something percent of the world under management Yeah, man, so they got a wet work division and what they do is they put their assassins in videos So it's predictive programming or intergalactic contract law requires that yeah that their wetwork assassins be featured in the background of corporate videos because I think it was like they were shooting at this guy's school I think it was there's a random thing but it probably means that this you know Ezra is gonna be killed I mean, listen, from what I know of like, you know, you go back at some oil corporations,
Starting point is 00:25:09 you know, whenever they murder people, they don't use in-house people. You get outside help. Nobody has an in-house wetwork team. That's just begging for emails to lead you back to the source. I do think it's probably too direct. That's crazy. And it would be really insane to put the person in a video years earlier It would be truly absurd yes to have just to have a wetwork division
Starting point is 00:25:32 But alone, but this kind of thing is like oh my god look at this connection This blows people who watch Alex's shows mine. It's yeah stupid as shit, but it's like oh my god This all makes sense. Yeah crazy. What office do you have what office do you set up for the wet work division? The pool it's got a pool Is the pool oh oh oh my god. I didn't even get the fucking wet part You're working in the pool well done. I'm that stupid Apologies sometimes I'm too literal since you beat me single entendres are tough yeah it's tough so loaded right
Starting point is 00:26:12 under my head I think that Ezra is not dealing with the fact that he was harassing this man right and he took a picture of him probably because he was scared sure I would be maybe in that situation. Look, I had no sympathy for Larry Fink. Whatever. He's a billionaire. Fuck it. But I do think as a human, it makes sense to take a picture of someone who is stalking you. Sure. Just in case. Hey, what are you going to do? I mean, you know, he's got a bodyguard team. He'll probably be fine over Ezra. I think so. But Ezra shouldn't take that as like some kind of giant threat No, no, definitely not. Anyway Davos. There's they've got oligarchs there and they don't really care. There's no big deal
Starting point is 00:26:54 What's so interesting is? They move a little bit with the winds like they invited Javier Millet They invited Donald Trump. So maybe in some ways they say, well look, at the end of the day we're about ideology, but we all like to get super rich, so let's hang out with the cool kids, even if we disagree with them. It'll be interesting to me to see, and this is one of the questions I put to Larry Fink,
Starting point is 00:27:16 is will he abandon his DEI and ESG rules? You know how BlackRock operates, it invests in companies. Like I checked it out, and last statistics I can find, BlackRock has $83 billion worth of shares in Alphabet, the parent company of Google and YouTube. So what BlackRock does is it buys a company,
Starting point is 00:27:41 invests at a massive scale, but then it says to the company it invested in, as your large shareholder, we demand that you have these DEI policies. We want you to be woke on transgenderism, on global warming, et cetera. So these companies are sort of injected right in their bloodstream with these woke Marxist ideas.
Starting point is 00:28:05 So they look like billionaires, but they act like Antifa and Black Rock is the contagion. Oh, see, that's an interesting construction. And I would love to see some kind of proof for this conspiracy that Ezra is promoting. According to him, Black Rock comes in and invests in a company and then they demand that the company be woke or else they'll lose the investment that BlackRock put in. Here's what I need for him to present for me to even begin to take this seriously. I would need to see internal demands from BlackRock to these companies that they go woke and Ezra repeating DEI and ESG over and over again, that's not going to be enough.
Starting point is 00:28:40 I need something that demonstrates that the investment and quote going woke are connected. To make that piece of the argument stronger, I would need to see examples of companies who were not necessarily woke who took in BlackRock money and then went woke. It shouldn't be too difficult to make a timeline if what Ezra is saying is true, so I would welcome him to present that and show it. When looking at this argument, you want to try and find a counter example that might challenge the faulty premises that Ezra is working with. According to his thinking, companies that get BlackRock investment have these demands
Starting point is 00:29:11 made of them so they become woke. A good counter example would be a company that he definitely doesn't think is woke at all who has BlackRock investment. These guys all love Elon Musk so much, so just take a look at Tesla. It turns out BlackRock manages just under 200 million shares of their stock, and if you add that amount to the amounts held by State Street and Vanguard, the total comes up to over 500 million shares. This tends to indicate that it's possible to have BlackRock investment in a company,
Starting point is 00:29:41 and it not be some kind of a woke shakedown. Without that premise in place, Ezra's argument kind of falls apart and it's shown to mean nothing. So good luck, Ezra, and work with that. Yeah. You know what? Hey, how about this? Disregarding the fact that everything that that man just said was fucking insane.
Starting point is 00:30:00 Yeah. Alright, so now we do have this perception. Alright, so now all these companies abandon woke. Does that not prove that they're mercenaries who are just in it for the money anyways? And if that's the case, if they were always mercenaries who were just in it for the money, then why did you think that they were ideologically bent towards it? See, it was just a money making thing. Abandon woke and Black Rock still is investing in them. Yeah. Then it means the ideology never really meant anything and you were all just fighting ghosts.
Starting point is 00:30:29 Everybody's insane. Well these people are. Yeah. Do you know it sometimes it's like I know when you're lying about something because you want to convince people of some bullshit but sometimes that's some that's so crazy. I think he believes some of that. I don't. No I think he does. I'm not sure. I don't. He hired Lauren Southern and Tommy Robinson. That's fair. He's a piece of shit.
Starting point is 00:30:52 He is a piece of shit. Anyway, here's a sample of this idiot's amazing journalism bothering Larry Fink. I'm excited. Who's more powerful you or President Trump? Me. Oh sorry, was I not supposed to answer? Why do you think you're so disliked around the world? Why are so many US states divesting from your ESG schemes? Why are you putting your ideology ahead of your investors with ESG, Mr. Fink? Isn't that being disloyal to shareholders, putting your ideology ahead of rate of return?
Starting point is 00:31:34 Why do you think you're above accountability? Is it because you're rich? I just feel like walking with him now because his big scary bodyguards and I don't know Ezra, I just want to make it clear I will not kill myself. I have no suicidal thoughts either. Mr. Fink's taking pictures of me and Abiy Amini. I think that's meant to intimidate. It's a little weird though. It feels a little thin skinned. So this is all Ezra's video is, just him and his buddy asking Larry Fink mean questions
Starting point is 00:32:10 and him not responding. Also, it makes total sense for Fink to take their picture, because what Ezra is doing is very much illegal in Switzerland. Perhaps Ezra and Alex don't care about things like national sovereignty, but Switzerland has a very different understanding of freedom of speech and press than we do. Specifically, in Switzerland, as a member of the public, you have a right to not be photographed without your consent. You own the right to your own image, so a person taking your picture has to get permission
Starting point is 00:32:38 in order to use it. According to Swiss law, Ezra is brazenly harassing Larry Fink, and now he's illegally publishing his image without consent. There are even stipulations in Swiss law about, if you take a crowd shot, that's okay. But if someone sticks out in that crowd, you have to get the permission. If you want to use it, especially in a commercial setting or something like what Ezra is doing, he's violating Larry Fink's right to his own image. That's fair.
Starting point is 00:33:07 I only know about this because one of Alex's friends got in trouble for it in 2022. So I feel like Alex has every reason to understand this dynamic of Swiss law, but I guess not. If learning were possible, I would agree with you. But since I no longer have faith in that for these crew. Yeah. No. You should... And it's not like Davos is in different places. It's the name of a
Starting point is 00:33:31 city. It's the way it's there. So this dynamic should be crystal clear. It's like, hey, when you're there, you can't photograph people without their permission. You know, and it feels like an evolution of the dashboard videos where they're like, I'm about to go through this checkpoint and we're going to see if they're going to respect my Fourth Amendment rights or whatever. And then they're just yelling at the guy and he's like, go on through.
Starting point is 00:33:55 And that's it. It's a little disappointing. It's anticlimactic for sure. And it's funny because, you know, Ezra and his buddy just badger Larry Fink for minutes on end. And Ezra has the gall to come on the show and suggest that, I think Larry Fink has a temper. Yeah, I mean, this guy does not. I think he's got a temper. And the fact that he abides his bodyguards and sort of, I mean, is one thing and then taking the photo is another
Starting point is 00:34:22 thing. The fact that he does not bite his is a third thing. Abides his bodyguards. I think this guy gets through life as a kind of bully who has never had anyone stand up to him. I mean, I know a few billionaires, not closely, but what's so amazing is how everyone around them is so incredibly determined to say yes to the billionaire no matter what they want, to make life so easy and smooth for them. the way that they're doing it and they're doing it for the people that they're doing it for. They're so incredibly determined to say yes to the
Starting point is 00:34:49 billionaire, no matter what they want to make life so easy and smooth for them. And so there's a real risk that these billionaires only have. Yes men who surround them, by the way, Elon, that's key again. Elon 12 of interviewing you. Elon
Starting point is 00:35:04 has said for decades, but all the time he tells his managers and crew. I want you to tell me bad news. I want you to screw when you think I'm wrong I want to be challenged because that's the opposite of being stagnant But he talks about all these other corporations and government they only want yes men around them and how dangerous that is Yeah, man, Elon Musk fired everyone agrees with him at Twitter. I They only kept dissenting voices. I mean Sometimes you just wonder if like those like a hat pin through the year all the way to the other side and call it a day. That's fucking crazy. It is.
Starting point is 00:35:31 That is fucking crazy. But I think it's crazy so tactically because the criticism of billionaires is probably pretty accurate, but they love Elon Musk. So they have to make him immune from that criticism. It's very defensive in nature. I mean, yeah, I just I guess I'll never understand. But this is this is the human race for fucking forever. I'll never understand being like, oh, my king is better than your cake.
Starting point is 00:35:58 No kings, buddy. Kings are all bad by virtue of king. Sure. The end. But what if your king is actually already Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, already done. I said it in quotes. What if he's just a really rich guy? See, there you go. Who's really cool and does memes. Oligarchs are wrong.
Starting point is 00:36:13 Well, not my oligarchs. No! What? What are we doing? So, uh, I have to say. Yeah. I don't care about Larry Fink. I think he deserves a fair amount of criticism.
Starting point is 00:36:24 Black Rock does have investment in way too many things. There should be some sort of antitrust actions that are taken market wide. But I think that Ezra and his friend are little babies. I base that on this level of complaint they make. We asked him 70 questions and he had no answers. 70 questions? Not that we did any damage to him. We haven't affected his wealth, we haven't affected his power.
Starting point is 00:36:55 We just hurt his ego. And who knows what he'll do to punish us. But here, there's a couple minutes more, including when one of our cameramen falls on the ice and the bodyguard says, huh, karma, as if our cameraman was doing anything immoral by filming. I mean, imagine the mindset that anyone who asks you a question deserves pain by slipping and falling on ice and that's karma. You know, karma is in the universe balancing itself out. Yeah you report yourself saying you deserve this. How do they know it's not as a cameraman you hired? Are you fucking kidding me? Somebody fell on the ice and the bodyguard said that's karma and you're
Starting point is 00:37:36 taking it to a fucking radio show to complain about this. Can you imagine the mindset that someone would have to be in? Fuck you. Blahhhhhhh. Like, the people who he endorses are people like Lawrence Southern and Tommy Robinson. Grow the fuck up if you're gonna complain about someone laughing at someone who slips on ice. Please. I have no words. Yeah. I have no words.
Starting point is 00:38:01 It's comical, this level of like trying to police someone's reaction or what it is Is he's an instigator, you know as a man to somebody who goes out and he agitates and you want to create compelling Content through that sure you want to go out and get into a fight with Larry Fink He's not responding to your stupid ass. Yeah, so you get nothing this video is nothing except you and your friend looking like idiots Yeah You get nothing. This video is nothing except you and your friend looking like idiots. Yep. So you have to find something to complain about and all you've got is the bodyguard said something kind of glib when one of your cameraman slipped on ice. Who ca- this is a zero! Yeah, that's no good. You can't justify your travel expense on that.
Starting point is 00:38:40 Yeah. This is no good! that yeah this is no good I can't imagine not like debriefing after the like hey how do we think we did and not having everybody go a terrible job we did a bad objectively what we did was bad at what we do there was nothing electric we got no response like maybe we should make more personal insults next time yeah something and then this is shit and then the pitch was like, how do we save face? The bodyguard made a joke about the guy who fell that's what you've got And it wasn't even that mean of a joke, but imagine the mindset of somebody
Starting point is 00:39:16 You know, okay, it's just it's just I I Can't believe society has gotten to this point. Here's what I like Here's what I like about and and I don't believe society has gotten to this point. Here's what I like. Here's what I like about and I don't like it, but here's what is like at least appreciable about the new mafia system that we live within, right? In a real mafia system, if somebody comes to the boss with shit that week, you're fucking gone man. There's serious consequences. This is the fucking mafia.
Starting point is 00:39:40 You can't come to me with that. Yeah. Right? This, this, what is this? What is this? I think that Alex and Ezra are both yesterday's news in terms of, you know, like the new agitation media. Sure, sure, sure.
Starting point is 00:39:54 So I think that, you know, Alex, he's not bringing this to the Bob boss. No, he's bringing this to the guy who's might be concussed. This is not the quarterly reports that you want to give. Yeah, that's fair. So maybe Ez far as got something else, maybe take another Yeah, so he's got another story that he discovered while he was over there War gaming this what are you concerned about? You're a smart guy and I'm really focused on not being too overcome confident here I'm gonna steal 30 seconds first and show you something and forgive me for
Starting point is 00:40:24 Delaying answering your question. This is a energy bar That was being handed out on the streets of Davos today Cocoa cashew flavor Has protein in it the word insect or bugs is nowhere on this Ah, but this is insect protein energy bars. And there was a man giving these out by the hundred today. They really want you to eat the bugs. This is not a conspiracy theory, Alex.
Starting point is 00:40:56 I couldn't believe it. I took it and I asked the guy, where does it say bugs? He said, oh, it's right there. Alpha Tobias diapherarinus in the ingredients. That's the Latin phrase for the insect. It's mealworms. They ground up worms to make this. There is no warning label at all. This is legitimate warning label. In Europe, they really are selling bugs to be eaten. That is not a conspiracy.
Starting point is 00:41:27 That is not a fable. The conspiracy isn't supposed to be that there are some products that use insect-derived protein. It's that the globalists want to force you to only eat the bugs by banning the sale of things like beef and chicken. Proving that there are insect-derived energy bars being sold by companies in Europe does zero towards establishing this conspiracy.
Starting point is 00:41:46 So the company that Ezra is talking about is called Pumba, and in big letters on each bar it says quote upcycled food. If Ezra cared at all, he would know that this is a term used to describe taking things that would often otherwise be waste and making them into nutritious foods. That should have been his first tip off. The second thing he should have noticed is that in the ingredients section things are in Swiss and French because this is a Swiss company. It says on the ingredients list in bold letters, alfatobus dipernus followed by insectamel
Starting point is 00:42:16 in parentheses which translates to insect meal. It says insect in the ingredients you dipshit. Fair, that's true. It's complaint is that it doesn't say that there are bugs in this thing, but it's in the ingredients list and the bar is labeled upcycled food. On their website they say quote, Pumba's mission is to bring the best insect based foods to people around the globe, promoting both personal well-being and environmental stewardship. This isn't something they're hiding.
Starting point is 00:42:42 What the fuck are you doing? This is a really good encapsulation of how pathetic this conspiracy ecosystem is. Ezra is on to complain about how Larry Fink didn't answer his questions and then he drops this bombshell that a company in Switzerland uses alternative protein sources for its energy bar. Who gives a shit? Like what? This is a wasted trip bro I fully believe now in the Apollo rules for all media if this
Starting point is 00:43:10 happens giant came boom you're gone yeah just gone no everybody booze everybody you're done you don't got it you're done yeah get the fuck out of here next act yeah it should be that's just the general rule for all media now yeah Ezra is is yoink get the fuck out He's not making it. He's getting the gong. Yeah, absolutely Absolutely. So Alex is now has had the idea of eating bugs introduced to us. Sure. So we got it. Talk about it insect exoskeletons what they have we have an endoskeleton Nice or just bug chitin protein that's what they're supposed to do. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to
Starting point is 00:43:45 eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to
Starting point is 00:43:53 eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to
Starting point is 00:44:01 eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. They're supposed to eat it. You're not meant to, and there are some cultures that do it. And in Africa, they'll eat big grubs because they don't have a lot of chitin in them. And so they're not as toxic. But that's Africans digging holes because they're starving and eating beetle larvae. There's a national library of medicine bugs and food a recipe for cancer So if you go strictly by the if it looks good, I'm supposed to eat it rule
Starting point is 00:44:31 I don't know why anyone would eat lobsters Mushrooms mollusks are all sort of things that are perfectly acceptable bugs of the sea. I think Alex is just being stupid here However, he pulls up a headline that says quotes quote, bugs and food, a recipe for cancer. And the first thing I would point out is this ends in a question mark. This is not a statement. It is a query. This is an article published in the journal Cell Metabolism in 2014. And based on how Alex is talking about it, you would think that this is about how having a diet that includes bugs will lead to an increase in your risk of cancer. It would have to be.
Starting point is 00:45:03 However, if you read the article, it's about something else altogether. Ah, that's certain. The paper involves cancer risk in mice and questions some conventional understandings about obesity and cancer. Specifically, the understanding at the time that was being examined was that when mice have a high-fat diet, they develop obesity and inflammation, which then leads to cancer. However, the analysis these researchers came to was that the development of cancer actually preceded the obesity and inflammation in the mice that were fed a high-fat diet, so there must be another contributing
Starting point is 00:45:35 factor. They posit that this other factor is microbial makeup inside the mouse's guts. These bacteria and microbes are the bugs that the headline is referring to, not beetles and worms. Right, right, right, right, right. Alex has no idea what information he's presenting to the audience and he doesn't care. That headline appears to make the point that he's trying to make, so it's presented fraudulently in order to make that point. Uh, gong.
Starting point is 00:46:00 Wow. Yeah. Okay, so here's, so eventually we're all gonna eat the bugs. Let's just move on from that We're all gonna get there. How do you sell it? You know, like when you're Alex and you've already invested all this stuff. He finally has a bug food sponsor How is he gonna start selling it the same way you sell Elon? These are the good bugs. No Kite and whatever who gives a shit bugs no chitin whatever who gives a shit good bugs yeah they look like food they look like food man it shouldn't be that easy yeah shouldn't should not it
Starting point is 00:46:32 shouldn't be that easy damn it will be a slam dunk make it not that easy we have gathered the best scientists no you've spent 20 years we've perfected the methods of chitin removal. But you said that it was... Yeah, but this is the only good one. You know how iodine's the good halogen? Sure. As opposed to fluoride, you know that old sales pitch?
Starting point is 00:46:57 Oh my god. This is the good bug. We're just never gonna get free. Hashtag the good bug. No! Don't hashtag it! You son of a bitch. Now it's true. It's not that far off. I'm sure. You know you're probably right. If the opportunity were to arise I'm sure that it would be manageable for him. Yeah, I bet. So he reads a little
Starting point is 00:47:17 a couple headlines here about bugs. Okay. Immune response to eating chitin linked to better health. Oh look Well, your body has seen it and they've got their spin out there too, huh What's been so bugs feeding the world 12 companies selling edible insects New York food policy org Wonder who funds them. So the first thing Alex did there was read an headline that says the opposite of what he's saying Yeah, and then his only rebuttal is are they got their spin? I guess so cool, man And then there's a telling moment there for Alex that I think really should inject concern among his fans He sees this article the second headline that he's reading is from the New York food policy dot org website and he mutters
Starting point is 00:48:03 I wonder who funds them. Why doesn't he know? He's supposed to work 20 hours a day on this shit, and he's definitely not just cold reading headlines and riffing on them. If he cares at all, he should know who the sources are for the things that he's reporting. The New York Food Policy Center is run by Hunter College. There's tons of information about them that's easily available if Alex cares, but he doesn't. If he looked into it, that would require work work and the information he'd find wouldn't really be that useful for him
Starting point is 00:48:30 He gets so much more mileage off just making vague insinuations Like I wonder who funds them than he ever could from doing his job because now in your head Alex wonders who funds them. He must know something fuck the New York food policy center or whatever the fuck yeah, they're globalists Oh, man, I'm probably Schwab I'm not gonna be able to get past that it's out of Hunter College Hunter college gonna fuck with my head hunter gatherer I mean I was I couldn't I couldn't stop being like don't make a gatherer college joke don't make a gatherer college joke I can't not it's it's in my head. It's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's in my head. It's it's it nominative determinism, or is it just fucking coincidence? I think you should have just let it fly. I have to get to the bottom of it was somebody in the past fucking with us No, I think it's named after a person I would assume. Oh that person's probably fucking with us
Starting point is 00:49:16 I bet they never even hunted well one of their ancestors must have right you would take it the name That's what I've been told. That's what I would assume. But now you don't know I don't I don't know. Mm-hmm So Alex is talking a little bit about the idea of Trump getting rid of birthright citizenship sure and he's all for it Shocking great. This just happened in the last hour Judge says he will block Trump's blatantly unconstitutional executive order that aims to end birthright citizenship anchor babies and If you read the Constitution to end birthright citizenship. Anchor babies. And if you read the constitution, it's a fact that it's natural born means your parents
Starting point is 00:49:50 are either legally here or citizens. You can't get off an airplane eight months pregnant and then wait in a hotel for a month or some leftist flop house. Well, they all sign you up, welfare and the rest of it. Then you go into the hospital and we pay for your baby. And then now mommy can stay and daddy can stay and then the chain migration, the rest of their family comes in.
Starting point is 00:50:14 This is a weapon of replacement migration and Trump is shutting it down. So this, this to me is just, uh, I mean, there's just hate. Uh, there's, there's just hate. It's not it can't possibly be as big of a deal as like how many people are doing that? How many people are coming in the eighth month? I swear. And people leftists funding all this. No I remember I remember eight years ago I remember reading something specifically about this whole concept and just being like, oh, what we found is that none of that happens. But there are fucking like 10 Russian people who've done it in the past hundred years. And you're like, that's not even a thing.
Starting point is 00:50:58 I don't think it's as minor as that. As I recall from looking into it, there is something that happens, but it happens on such a small level to be like, what you're really doing is hurting people. You gain much more by just being like, all right, some people are going to exploit whatever, who cares? I don't know. No, it is so much like if you can get people focused on a not a real problem, then you can avoid actually having to deal with any real problems.
Starting point is 00:51:27 Yeah, or make the underlying problem worse. Yeah. Yep. So Alex, I will say, I got to give it up to him. You know, like sometimes you just have to. And he has criticisms. Like the Somali pirates? He has criticisms of ICE.
Starting point is 00:51:41 Sure. I bet they're totally genuine and probably not about how they're not violent enough. Well, shit. And I want to raise this now without saying any names. Because I've seen a bunch of people doing it without even looking. It's all over the place. Attacking Tom Homan, the new border czar, and attacking Trump when Tom Homan goes on TV and says, we're going to target the worst people first.
Starting point is 00:52:09 And then taking that meaning they're not going to get everybody. You you better get the worst people first. I mean, if you're in a small town, and there's six, seven cops on duty at midnight, and a bunch of calls come in and they're shooting up a car wreck at midnight and a bunch of calls come in. Somebody is. Shooting up the local country dance bar. And another call comes in of a domestic dispute and another
Starting point is 00:52:41 call comes in about a car wreck. And then what do the cops do? The police station, whoever's on duty and charge, calls out and says, respond to that first. So you might make a joke at some point of like, yeah, his criticism would be that they're not deporting enough people. And that kind of is, you know. Exactly what it is. Yeah. Well, Alex is defensive about other people having that kind of is you know exactly what it is yeah well Alex is defensive about other people having that complaint yeah he's saying they're
Starting point is 00:53:11 reporting plenty I mean I guess it's everybody I guess you know they'd like because a reasonable conversation for them would have to be something along the lines of like if you really want that then we have to be something along the lines of like, if you really want that, then we have to devote all of the budget to hiring new ICE people. I think they'd be fine. Hiring more lawyers, more everybody, more all of this shit forever. It would be, it's a physically impossible thing to do. You just want to do it because it's racist. So just be like, hey guys, we're being racist enough. Okay. Yeah, that's sort of Alex's point. Yeah, like what what is what is happening?
Starting point is 00:53:50 Yeah, we have to prioritize with the way that we exert our race We all want serial killers out of here obviously, but come on. What do you want to just go after everybody? Yes? That's what you told us. So Alex is trying to justify the fact that there are you know, I There they're taking people. Sure some non criminals It's already happening and so Alex is trying to justify some of that by distracting with another story
Starting point is 00:54:23 Here's another video. Earlier today, NBC crews filmed multiple federal agents rounding people up from apartments in Boston. And we already showed some of that. And they've got it in Los Angeles. They got it in Houston. Trump deportation plan begins to take shape as immigrant communities face fear and uncertainty. Oh, really? Look at this photo at the US Mexico border migrants experienced the reality of Trump's first few days and
Starting point is 00:54:54 they're crying and it's a woman. Yeah. Amnesty International says 80 plus percent of the women and girls that come across that border have been raped on the other side not here by the smugglers. So send them back. It's all Oh, look, she got told to come up here. And now she just can't waltz in and have her baby and have it all paid for be a Democrat live on welfare and flyer foreign flag and no. What about this guy? Oh, look, she's crying. Poor thing. What about Border Patrol agent was killed the the Pentagon during September 11th. He was devoted. Notice the article is not about how an illegal alien with prior violent convictions that had been ordered deported but wasn't deported
Starting point is 00:55:48 by the Biden system because they would just bureaucratically block it. They don't even get into his name or any of it until you dig deeper because they want to make it because they want to make it all about he just got killed. I mean, how long do I got to read here? Until I find out this guy did this. Keep skimming. You'll figure it out eventually. Cold reading, nice. Amazing. So you see here Alex trying to make the audience not feel bad for a person being caught up in an ICE raid
Starting point is 00:56:23 by distracting them with a story about how this border patrol agent was shot in Vermont. Alex knows nothing about that story and he's just adding in some details in order to make it fit its narrative, like the whole storyline about how this person who shot the border patrol agent was an undocumented immigrant with a prior violent conviction that was supposed to be deported but that was stopped by Biden. All of that is from Alex's imagination. As it stands now, they've not said who actually shot that agent, which brings up the kind of sad possibility that he might have been shot by friendly fire during the standoff. What we do know is that it's pretty unlikely that the man who was from Germany, Felix Bachholt, was the one who shot him
Starting point is 00:57:01 because he was in the process of pulling a weapon when he was shot and killed. The police and Theresa Youngblood, the woman from Washington, were the ones who got off shots. As far as I can tell, Bachholt doesn't have a history of violent convictions and wasn't ordered deported. He came from Germany to Canada to attend university in 2015 and then came to the United States and overstayed a visa. This story is unfolding in a very crazy way, but I don't think it works in any way that Alex needs it to. At this point, the details are kind of sketchy,
Starting point is 00:57:32 but it looks like it's possible that this killing of this border patrol agent could be connected to some other murders. There's also some insinuations that the people who carried out the shooting might've been trans and vegan, so I would expect this to pivot from being an immigration narrative into being an anti-LGBTQ one if Alex continues with it at all.
Starting point is 00:57:50 It has all the makings of a completely insane story, but Alex knows nothing about any of the details and doesn't care. Doesn't care to learn who gives a shit. No, no. It's a Border Patrol agent who was shot, I can use that to Distract from your feelings of genuine empathy that you should have for seeing these people Mistreated. Yeah. Yeah Okay, here's my new pitch. All right We don't need to outlaw guns. What we need to do is make it mandatory to always be wearing hockey gloves
Starting point is 00:58:22 All right So now we're all wearing hockey gloves, and that means that whenever Alex says something like that, I can just drop my hockey gloves and we are in a fight. You know what I'm saying? We're in a hockey-style fight. Everybody knows what the signals are. We've got a social kind of thing going on.
Starting point is 00:58:39 And because you're wearing the hockey gloves, can't mess with a gun. But here's a couple issues. OK. One, can we make them those finger things where you can use a phone with the hockey glove? Like, can you still use a touch screen? Ooh, that is a good question.
Starting point is 00:58:55 No, because I also don't want people having to be on their phones while they're crossing the crosswalk. OK, second pitch. Yeah. This is kind of just going back to slapping someone with a glove times. Sure.
Starting point is 00:59:06 Because all you're actually wanting is someone to like, there's an indication that it's go time. Yes. Yeah, we're all on board here. We all understand the process. Maybe we just slap with a glove as opposed to everyone has to wear hockey gloves all the time. It's not American. It's not American to slap with a glove. Hockey is close enough. Hockey's close enough. It's better than the, you know, better than the alternative. I think, I think that it would be tough to do a lot of things like drive or cook or sleep with hockey gloves on.
Starting point is 00:59:35 We would have to fundamentally restructure society, but I think that would be a far cheaper option than allowing guns to continue, I guess. I feel like we should just limit the availability of guns and have people slap each other with gloves to indicate that it's on. As far as compromise is concerned, I'm with you. Okay, so Alex is in favor of Trump, another action that he did, which is declaring that the cartels in Mexico
Starting point is 01:00:00 are terrorist gangs, terrorist groups. Great. That's one stack. Oh, I'm sorry. There was two stacks in that. I'm sorry. Now you're seeing how I'm trying to move quicker. It's a lot. I'm actually getting ready to cover this. That takes a lot of time to. Here's the New York Times. When I first saw this headline, it was just a screenshot on x I said, is that fake? And I went
Starting point is 01:00:24 and clicked and no, it wasn't, of course. Almost as silly as the headline in 1906. It'll take a million years for men to fly. And a week later, the Wright brothers at Kitty Hawk documented it. It happened before. How labeling cartels terrorists could hurt the US economy. U. S. Economy. I'm like, Is that real? Yeah, here it is. How labeling cartel terrorist. I mean, anybody's terrorists them could hurt the U. S. Economy. Have you seen the carnage, the death, the fentanyl, the stuff they do? And you read it and it's like it's like a joke. And then they give their excuses. It doesn't even And then they give their excuses. It doesn't even. It's like humanizes the cartels. And now the Mexican pesos dropping and all the rest of
Starting point is 01:01:11 it because he runs that country. Trump designated cartels, terror groups could hurt the US economy. New York Times warns Mexico based New York Times reporter argues Trump order could have a major impact on U.S. Mexico given their deep economic interdependence to their admitting Mexico runs off drugs. Is that what they were admitting? The designation of drug cartels as terrorist alarms Mexico, Washington Post. Here's Trump's executive order on it, designating cartels, other organizations as foreign terrorist organizations as specifically designated global terrorists.
Starting point is 01:01:48 Wow. Wow. All right. Let's keep going. So, I'm not interested in supporting or defending drug cartels, but I do think that Alex's position is entirely inconsistent with his previously stated beliefs, and pretending that people oppose Trump labeling cartels as international terror groups because they want to defend the cartels is a cowardly dodge for him to make.
Starting point is 01:02:16 There are a number of issues here and a compelling reason why no other president has ever made a move like this. The first is that the mainstream economy of Mexico is deeply penetrated by the cartels in a way that a lot of normal businesses are used as fronts to launder money. Because this is the case, most analysts believe that it would be almost impossible
Starting point is 01:02:37 to discern which businesses are cartel connected and which are not. So when you label these cartels as international terrorist groups, it could now be considered materially supporting a terrorist group if you invest in the wrong company in Mexico. You introduce a lot of legal issues, and one of the downstream results is that people just stop taking the risk of investing in any businesses in Mexico in fear that they might unknowingly
Starting point is 01:02:59 be supporting terrorism. The second is that the United States has a terrible track record of dealing with terrorist groups. The last 20 years has been terrible track record of dealing with terrorist groups. The last 20 years has been marked by us calling something a terrorist group and then using that as a justification to bomb people. Labeling the cartels as international terrorist groups creates a fear that this is going to lead to more of that. Trump could demand that they be addressed militarily, and if Mexico's response isn't
Starting point is 01:03:21 satisfactory, it's easy to imagine him accusing them of harboring terrorists and we need to go in and take care of it ourselves. This could easily be seen, you can see how it would turn into justification for needing to send boots on the ground to fight the terrorists, could grow out of the- Alex should know this! He's been around the whole Iraq war period, he knows this shit, he's- it's impossible he doesn't understand that. This move is counterproductive, which is what people oppose in it. That's when they say they oppose this kind of declaration, that's what they mean. Alex is just incapable of conversations about news that go any deeper than a headline, and
Starting point is 01:03:57 so this is the kind of coverage you get. It's so shallow. Yeah. Yeah. I'm getting the feeling like maybe we should do a moratorium on those headlines and just replace it with being near United States geographically alarms Mexico. Yeah. You know, like don't bother with blank alarms Mexico. Just us being near them alarming proximity unsettling. Yeah. Just justifiably. So yeah. Yeah. So Alex does some more coverage gets mice hitting all the news. Sure. This is really nice right here. I like this a lot. He didn't just pull 52 of the Neo con and globalist leftist that worked against him. It didn't just block the Hunter Biden stuff, but they ran a crossfire hurricane, all of it.
Starting point is 01:04:46 And a lot of our neocons, a lot of their top ones are. So he, John Bolton lost his security clearance. And now Pompeo, oh, that guy's a snake in the grass. Reuters, Trump revokes security protection. Yeah, they're also pulling their security. You don't get that, like Fauci needs to have his pulled. the Trump revokes security protection for Pompeo and a former aide. Good.
Starting point is 01:05:26 Pure gold, John Brennan bellyaching about his security clearance being pulled over laptop intel letter. Yeah. Pompeo is a big leaker. He's bad man. Bad. Bad man. Here's some more border news.
Starting point is 01:05:44 So John Brennan's security clearance was revoked in 2018. Alex adding that in with these headlines is a little bit confusing. I imagine he just forgot that that happened in Trump's first term. Alex is also mixing up his stories. John Bolton had his security clearance revoked, but Mike Pompeo had his security detail pulled. This is a concern because there have been rumblings for years that Iran very much wants to assassinate Mike Pompeo because he played a role in the killing of Qasem Soleimani. So without that security detail, that task would be a lot easier.
Starting point is 01:06:14 And that's the issue that people are talking about. But Alex seems to think that it was that he got his security clearance polled. He's adjusting mid-reading, mid-cold reading these headlines. So he was going to take calls on this show, but he decides that he's not going to. I think that the reason that he gives is revealing. And I said I'd take calls, but I also have a total commitment. I really love your calls. You can take us in every direction.
Starting point is 01:06:44 Wildcard. I have to cover all this, so I won't your calls. Do you? Wild card. I just, I have to cover all this so I won't take calls. I'm going to do some extra nighttime shows that are calls. I'm gonna set that up today. I'll tell you soon. And I'm gonna do not just a Sunday show. I'll do a Saturday show too and take calls. And I mean you do the next spaces too. Cause I really want to, I really want to hear from you.
Starting point is 01:07:04 It's just that we take this show and we take each one of these things I cover and we put out 30 40 clips as you know, and on average, they're getting like 5 million views a piece and it's moving the needle. So, Uh, It's exhausting to do this much nudge. Um, but it hurts him.
Starting point is 01:07:27 So quite frankly, I find it more interesting and have fun just like hearing from you. I mean, I'm just a regular guy. Sitting up here talking by yourself is, um, it's satisfying to get the bad guys. So it's satisfying, but it's also... the bad guys. So it's satisfying, but it's also it's beyond exhausting. You know what it's like. So do we have responsibility to really be dynamic and accurate. And I can kind of just, you know, respond to the call, give them an answer that takes some thought the best I can. But it's more
Starting point is 01:08:02 interesting and stimulating, like I'm in it kind of a jail cell in here just talking to myself But it doesn't matter I'm gonna go to break and we're gonna come back I forgot to plug this hour I'm the problem around here when I plug it up. I agree Incredible products. We're blowing the globalist up if you want to keep winning Incredible products. We're blowing the globalist up. If you want to keep winning, support us. Big sale going right now. A lot of new products in the store."
Starting point is 01:08:28 So Alex hasn't gotten deep into any of the new subjects that he's touched on in the show, but if you pay attention to what he's saying, this makes total sense. He's not going to take calls because he needs to spend more time on the show covering subjects that his staff can then cut into clips that they can use as clickbait on Twitter. That's moving the needle as much as he sees big view numbers on there, and since Alex gets advertising revenue from the audience on Twitter, this is a smart thing for him to maximize. He has more fun and would rather take calls, maybe, but the way he believes he can make
Starting point is 01:08:59 the most money is to make clickbait bullshit that flies around on Twitter. Is a terrible strategy, and I am therefore glad that Alex thinks it's a good strategy. I guess. He can run with that. Yeah. Yikes. That's just, that's dark thoughts about your own existence. This is what we are like- He's in a jail cell talking to himself.
Starting point is 01:09:22 Not even questioning like, should we do this or like should we should we? Should we purposefully? Eschew this because it is a sign of a decaying now fuck it. Let's go well I think that there's something really sad to think about that is Alex's metrics for his own like brilliance and his own relevance and all of this is just tied to Twitter views.
Starting point is 01:09:50 If something should happen and Elon decides you're not in my good graces anymore and bans Alex from Twitter, he's spent so much time building up the hundreds of millions of views that they're getting on there. Now all that goes away. No, you don't understand.
Starting point is 01:10:05 His identity is dependent on Musk's grace. Sure, sure. That's what you think. But you see, okay, so when you give a single person, usually megalomaniacal, an absurd amount of power over you, then whenever they whimsically change their mind, as they are known to do, there are lots of protections. Oh no, there aren't. There are no protections at all.
Starting point is 01:10:25 No, but Alex could then just start lying about how many more radio stations he's on or something. He'd find a way to self-soothe. Running away from reality is very soothing. Yeah, it's dangerous. So Alex is going to make some of those clips. He's going to cover the news so you can get into the clips. But he's not. He's actually going to do it later. Oh, great. We're not playing around with the globalists as I told them. And they know that they can smell defeat.
Starting point is 01:10:53 The spirit of this transmission. And guess what? What they feared has now come true. Larry Fink. Fauci. All of you. the the the the the the the
Starting point is 01:11:21 the the the the radio stations don't carry this segment. Somehow a little fun here because I want everybody to hear what I'm going to be covering. I am locked. I am loaded. I am
Starting point is 01:11:33 going to explosively with precision. Yeah. All of this. James O'Keefe's had another stunning coup. Senate confirms John Ratcliffe, Trump's CIA director. We got the big news on J six. We got the information coming out about what's really going on with this Stargate AI. M R and a And we have got a lot more on top of that.
Starting point is 01:12:06 I'm going to get into what to expect from Trump's visit to California tomorrow. And I'm not laughing about the carnage. That's terrible. Trump's got the mushroom and Super Mario Brothers right now. So nothing says tip of the spear quite openly and constantly acknowledging that you don't even really give a shit about the first six minutes of every hour because it doesn't go out on the tiny number of radio stations that air your show. Four hundred my ass.
Starting point is 01:12:37 Definitely the most effective use of that time is getting hyped up about all the news that you're going to cover later. John Radcliffe is a terrible choice for the CIA, seeing as he was a Bush-era anti-terrorism chief in the Department of Justice and ran a law firm with John Ashcroft. Since then, he's shown a lot of loyalty to Trump, so Alex is cool with it. Who cares? Incidentally, Alex can laugh all he wants here, but Trump's actions in California were almost a huge disaster.
Starting point is 01:13:01 He sent the Army Corps of Engineers to open up dams to increase the flow of water, which local authorities said would have caused severe flooding. A Politico article says, quote, local officials had to talk the Army Corps of Engineers down. Victor Hernandez, a water manager in the area, said he'd not seen anything like it in 25 years on the job, and that it was, quote, alarming and scary. The release of that much water that quickly would have the risk of damaging the channels, of causing flooding of farmland and communities nearby, and creating shortages of water meant for irrigation later. This will have no effect on firefighting ability, has potentially disastrous consequences, and is at best kind of a waste. The point of doing something like this is
Starting point is 01:13:40 the exercise of power. That is it. And alex celebrates that that's why he's laughing That's the that's what he's interested in yep Yep, bummer no arguments, but what about what do you think about the mushroom? Means the star that's what I that's what I think I think he means that Trump has the star that's interesting hold on Hold on to that thought. Oh my god Trump's got the Mushroom and Super Mario Brothers right now And he's running over bad guys and that arrogant snot nose Patrick Bateman thinks he's got problems now Trump is going to flame throw him
Starting point is 01:14:24 He's got problems now Trump is going to flame throw him He's gonna melt Like the witch in Wizard of Oz so I do what in God's name is he doing here So I think you're right that he does think it's the star because he says he can run over guys Yes, which you need the star for you start to jump on them if you're be over the mushroom Yeah, and he says flame throw're uh, if you have a mushroom. Yeah! But then he says flamethrow! Right! Like the fire flower! You need the mushroom. But then he says like the witch of the Wizard of Oz who died because of water!
Starting point is 01:14:50 Right! So then you would need that backpack that Professor E. Gadd made in Sunshine. Jesus Christ. Mario Sunshine. I'm gonna shit. I think that Alex doesn't know anything about Mario. It's very frustrating. Yeah, I think that really bothered me. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:02 Don't bring up Mario if you don't know the power-ups. I mean, not even that. Just don't bring up Mario if you don't know the power-ups I mean not even that just don't bring up Mario if you don't know the power-ups and then bring up one that is an active Opposition to then the reference to the Wizard of Oz that you you he's misunderstood 18 different references in the same sentence Yep, it's very frustrating and we don't even need to bring in spring Mario What if what if we started talking about the status effects from paper Mario? We don't even need to bring in spring Mario. Oh my God. Or cat Mario. What if we started talking about the status effects from paper Mario? We don't even want to deal with this. To nuki suits? You don't want to get poisoned.
Starting point is 01:15:31 Nope. Nope. So you remember a little bit ago? Sure. There's a really strong argument that Alex was having. Strong? That presidents have immunity. Because if you don't, then once you get out of power, why would anything
Starting point is 01:15:46 not turn into a witch hunt? That's why Trump couldn't be prosecuted before. Makes perfect sense to me. Uh oh. Also get the clip ready of Trump on Hannity talking about, isn't it interesting? Biden pardoned everybody that was doing stuff for him for his crimes, but didn't pardon himself. Obviously talking about going after him because he's no longer the president and doesn't have immunity. Hespe win your president.
Starting point is 01:16:14 So... Oh that's a different argument than you made before. That is a very different argument. That's convenient. That is very convenient. What a dipshit. All right. That's just, I mean, it's just infuriating.
Starting point is 01:16:27 You know, I wonder if maybe we just shouldn't have an automatic trial at the end of a presidency. That's an interesting option. Just an automatic one. Like, no, because the fear is- Like an exit interview kind of thing. Yeah, the fear is going to be it's used for partisan purposes. Just make it a nonpartisan thing. You have to have a trial at the end of your presidency.
Starting point is 01:16:45 Sort of like defending your life. Yeah, absolutely. Why bother with being like, oh, this guy says you're evil. I haven't seen a president in my lifetime that's gotten out of office that shouldn't be on trial at the very least. Right. You know? That's fair. And I think it would be interesting and maybe healing for a country. Could be.
Starting point is 01:17:02 I think it would be a little bit humiliating to, but whatever. Humiliating to the president would not be a bad idea either. But also to the public. And then it's like, this is what your leader has done over the last four years. I think we could stand to have some humiliation. Maybe. The thing that I think I want to put my finger on and point at here is Alex is saying that you don't have that immunity when you're out of
Starting point is 01:17:25 office yeah and that's exactly the opposite of what he was arguing when Trump wasn't in office and the reason that I think that this is important is don't take liars word like he was lying before yeah yeah don't pretend that he means this this argument will change when it's convenient I don't know I think we need about 16 or 17 more headlines about how Alex is finally sorry yeah for defaming people we've got a thousand episodes of him illustrating he's a shithead there's just no way of knowing I'm assuming we'll see more yeah so we got one one last clip here because Alex is discovering some more of the big Trump
Starting point is 01:18:06 And it was great. We're not going into a new dark age. We're not gonna eat the bugs and now are you sure? He just signed the executive order Ordering all of the remaining JFK files be released previously. They slow-rolled it Trump is ordering Them released today if they aren't, he'll send in the federal marshals. Trump orders the release of the final JFK assassination documents and just. A week and
Starting point is 01:18:36 a half ago, we aired the exclusive. Audio from 1971 of the former head of the DNC and LBJ's business manager and Billy Saul Estes talking about LBJ ordering the murder of JFK. Talk about smoking gun. That interview got over 100 million viewers and listeners on Real Alex Jones. Smoking guns. So that means it's true.
Starting point is 01:19:07 Yep. Now, Billy Saul Estes has been making these kinds of claims for the last 40 years. What? Someone claiming to be his grandson released a tape of him talking about it, but that doesn't really add to the conversation about the theory that LBJ killed JFK. It's just a recording of someone talking shit in a way that they have publicly talked shit a bunch of times. As for the declassifying of JFK files, that's a real dud.
Starting point is 01:19:29 Trump probably should do it, because until someone does, it'll hang over everyone's head as some kind of weird conspiracy mcguffin. But it's super unlikely that there's anything left to declassify that means anything. Most stuff has already been declassified, and people who study the subject will generally tell you that the remaining classified material is mostly only still classified because it contains sensitive personal information. This is an action Trump can take to really excite the base, but they'll quickly lose focus from the fact that the declassified documents don't really reveal anything they hope they will. And they'll move along and just be like, Trump told us all the truth about JFK. What truth? Yeah. Yeah. But here's what would be fun. All right. Because this is the way he made
Starting point is 01:20:11 it sound like if we don't do this, I'm going to send in the federal marshals. So in this scenario, right, they decide not to do it. And then federal marshals have to go like, does that mean that there's some sort of Knights Templar group within this classification? Who's like we have to protect the JFK documents with our lives, man Yeah, if the federal marshals come get you burn it to them like what what is happening? Yeah, there's a self-destruct failsafe Is that what's going on what in what world does sending in the federal marshals improve things? Because that's how serious these secrets are. But that doesn't make any sense. Even if they are secrets that are serious, the people who work there would have to go
Starting point is 01:20:53 rogue on their own or be part of a secret society. Right. Right? Presumably. Because everybody who would be involved in any of the stuff that's in the documents is dead. They're dead, yes. So these are like, they're sent with tattoos of crosses on their chest. Like we...
Starting point is 01:21:09 See, now that's fun. It is fun. That's fun. That's more fun. It's much more fun than realizing that like there's personal information that people just... Yeah, it's just like her hair color. Medical records or something. Yeah, what are we doing?
Starting point is 01:21:22 Why are we doing this? I think yeah, let's make everything. This is what we need to do. We need to create a way to make them all be on Indiana Jones and the last crusade and not actually governing the country. You know, like what we should have scavenger hunt set up for all of these people like Trump. Oh, we got to go get this. Yeah. And go get this yeah and go get it go get the National Treasure Boy go get it right no I or we could invite Alex to an escape room that isn't and then just leave him in a prison cell screaming to himself it would be no different from what he is now that's
Starting point is 01:21:57 what he said you know what honestly I was thinking about this just because I said it you know you invite him to an an escape room that's like a trap. Yeah. But you wouldn't actually have to. He'd never make it out of an escape room. No, no, no, no. Unnecessary. He could not possibly focus.
Starting point is 01:22:12 You would, well, you would have to, you would have to reinforce things. Oh, so he can't just punch through a wall? Exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You would have to either enforce the rules so heavily that you, you're forced back into the escape room if you just punch Through it in which case it would still be a present collar of some sort. Oh, that might be good thick neck though losing weight though
Starting point is 01:22:37 This is a good conversation Where Alex is at with Trump's new rule, his reign. But until then, we have a website. Indeed we do at Zollagefight.com. Yep, we'll be back. But until then, I'm Neo and Leo MDZXClerk, and I'm the mysterious professor. Woo, yeah, woo, yeah, woo! And now here comes the sex robots.
Starting point is 01:23:01 Andy in Kansas, you're on the air. Thanks for holding. Hello, Alex. I'm a first time caller. I'm a huge fan. I love your work. I love you.
