We're a couple dudes like to sit around and worship at the altar of slain and talk a little bit about Alex Joe. Oh indeed We are Dan Jordan Dan Jordan quick question for you. What's up? What's your brain spot today, buddy? My brain spot today is within the mailbag Z open up this mailbag. What do we find? Got some stuff in the mailbag. Yes Yep, so I'd like to thank first of all Sheridan
Starting point is 00:01:24 Madeline, for sending us an old condom. An old musk ox flavored condom from 25 years old. Thank you. It'll be cherished somewhere by someone someday hopefully. Yeah it's a sweet, the thought is sweet sweet Gift weird, but it'll go on the mantle also, thank you to G and Serena sent a couple of
Starting point is 00:01:53 What is this called? What is this kind of craft called? Needlepoint or or yeah, I'm not I'm not your wife's the artist. I know but she's the artist I mean, I'm the guy who listens to her. But a couple of lovely little pieces, one of Celine and one with a quote of you saying you shouldn't have quotes. It's very, very good. Very good. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:02:15 It really brightened the day. Yeah. How about you? What's your bright spot? My bright spot is the Lazarus Project. My wife and I watched this show. It's called the Lazarus Project. Does wife and I watched this show. It's called the Lazarus Project. Does it have to do with resurrection?
Starting point is 00:02:29 Kind of, in a way, but not in the way that you think. It's a time loop show. And it's not that great, but it's fun because they do something right with time loops. There's the, like, you can have a time loop and you can explore one thing and be like, oh, this is how it works. And time travel could work, right? Or you get it kind of unwieldy and you've got like three or four going on and they don't really work
Starting point is 00:02:56 together. Or you get like 50 time loop things going on and eventually you're just go, I guess I'm in. I guess we're juggling. Yeah I'm not going to be able to follow along so this is I'm on for the ride you know like did you ever see primer. No. Okay it is like the quintessential time travel loop indie movie made by these two guys for like fifteen thousand dollars and it's got so many time loops and you kind of don't know what's going on at all and then you read about it and people have made charts that show you what's going on you're like I still don't know what's going on right right at all but it's a great movie somehow you know it's
Starting point is 00:03:35 enough because it does you buy in yeah it's enough to be like all right yeah it's all it's almost like if you see someone juggling like one or two chainsaws You're like, how's he doing that? You got like ten. There's like fuck it. You're the hero. Yeah, you're a god I don't know what you are. I'm not even gonna question this no more. Nope. Um, well, that's fun It is a show is it to show? Yeah, it's two. There's two seasons out. Okay, but it's still ongoing I think so. I think it's like a sci-fi show too too So it's got it's that kind of it's that kind of energy, you know high quality production Something like that. It's it's got that like big idea Swing and miss sometimes kind of thing that the magicians had and yeah, it's great. Yeah, I'm glad you're enjoying that
Starting point is 00:04:18 Yeah, maybe I'll check it out, but I'm busy The challenge that's true me too. Shout out to that unwieldy fucking cast They have this year nuts We talked about that on the on the last episode that the new season has started and we went in totally cold Mistake Mistake I should have read up on it. Yeah. Yeah, you know many people the lore I do and they're from places like My wife is like, oh, that's that show and I'm like, I get this place out of here Yeah, we got a couple of people from Survivor. Yeah on this season and one I know and the other I can't remember
Starting point is 00:04:52 But yeah, so once I'm done with that, I'll get right to the take your time. So Jordan today We have an episode to go over. We're gonna be talking about July 9th 2025 as the situation with Trump's cover-up of the Epstein conspiracy is falling the fuck apart. Alex is reaping the harvest of not saving Gene Hackman. The United States is still in an active civil war, and the world is falling apart everywhere. So let's see how Alex deals with that. Would you say that the Trump thing with the Epstein has given kind of an armistice for
Starting point is 00:05:26 the Civil War? Maybe, maybe a ceasefire for the Civil War? In the same way that talking about the Minnesota lawmakers is not as important for Alex or any number of conspiracies. It's not so much there's an armistice as there is like a, it's drawing a lot of attention. Fair enough. And Alex is definitely going gonna have to wrestle with that on this episode I believe that so we'll check in on that but first let's take a little moment to say hello to some new walks That's great idea
Starting point is 00:05:54 So first greetings from bed in the UK and also I need to know Dan's thoughts about Jason Manzoukas on taskmaster now that season 19 is wrapped. Thank you so much. You're now policy wonk. I'm a policy wonk Thank you very much. It's now policy wonk. I'm a policy wonk. Thank you very much series 19 UK dork I was trying to bring some Jason Mays energy. You're getting your ass kicked in Scotland next time. We're out there bring it yeah Um I thought it was good. I thought he was he fit in well the cast It's as a whole was was a good balance. They were great. He was doing his thing.
Starting point is 00:06:27 He was very much doing his thing. Yeah. Some of it seems a little bit forced sometimes, the agroness, but it works for him. Yeah. And it's very funny. Yep. So I enjoyed it. Yep.
Starting point is 00:06:40 Next, my wife wants you to know that because we listened to Knowledge Fight at 1.5 speed, Jordan sounds like he says, I'm Jort! And she refuses to call him anything else and loves his exasperation. Love you, Memily, from your wife Weaver. Thank you so much, you're now a policy wonk. I'm a policy wonk. Thank you very much! Thank you. From Jort.
Starting point is 00:06:56 And thanks to, please support your local roller derby team, Scarbuck. Thank you so much, you're now a policy wonk. I'm a policy wonk. Thank you very much. Thank you. And we get a second credit next, Jordan. So thank you so much. You're now policy wonk. I'm a policy wonk. Thank you very much. Thank you And we get a second credit next Jordan So thank you so much to shout out to Molly conger from the weird little guys podcast who recommended this year show Which led me to growing a hyper fixation on it. Thanks for that genuinely much love from the Czech Republic Thank you so much. You're now a technocrat. I'm a policy wonk
Starting point is 00:07:22 Someone someone sodomite sent me a bucket of poop. Daddy shark! Bom bom bom bom bom. Jar Jar Binks has a Caribbean black accent. He's a loser little, little kitty baby. I don't want to hate black people. I renounce Jesus Christ! Thank you. That's, you know what's fun about that? That's, we take that for granted, you know? The internet allows things like that to happen
Starting point is 00:07:46 because when I was growing up, the only person in America who the people in Czech Republic knew was Michael Jordan and shit. And for some reason, the internet's amazing. And maybe Bugs Bunny. Sure, yeah. And they were both in Space Jam. But they have to be the most huge,
Starting point is 00:08:01 and we can just, people just know us. That's fun. Yeah, that is very neat thing about the internet. A little overwhelming at times. But yeah, real cool. Thank you. Big up, Molly, also. Yep, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:08:13 So, this episode is a real twist. Okay. There's a real sort of, what about that? Okay. Up till this point, we have had a situation where Alex is like well Trump made a deal with the globalists you know he's going down this path or maybe he's gonna use this Epstein blackmail sure today today is a departure okay but I also have an out-of-context drop that I think is very
Starting point is 00:08:40 funny yeah that's the problem yeah I've we don't know how to complain enough. Yeah that's the problem. Yeah I've experienced that a lot in my life. Too much restraint. Not enough conservative complaints these days. Our grievance economy doesn't complain enough. Boy I remember listening to four hours every morning of my dad in Rush Limbaugh. That's great.
Starting point is 00:09:03 Good stuff. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I think, uh, down the road, uh, we have heard, uh, in this second term for Trump, Alex has given a lot of scores out of a hundred. Yes. Do you remember some of these? I believe one was well over a thousand out of a hundred. Yeah. Regularly I've experienced him at the 150 out of a hundred mark. A lot of it is over what's possible
Starting point is 00:09:26 Very rarely have we stayed have we stayed within the the traditional 100 point scale? Yeah, when he's tried to show like some like I got some questions about Trump. It's been like he's almost at 200 Yeah, he's like a 190. Yeah, even even when we're unhappy. We're all exceeding expectations beyond reasonable abilities. We might be closer to reality Five on this live Wednesday edition. We're entering the 170th day the Trump administration That we had hoped would be the rebirth of the American Republic and the West and Still I would say 90% of what he's doing is good. But six months ago, it was 98%. Then a few months ago, it was 95% in my dead reckoning. And now we're moving down about 90%. So a turn
Starting point is 00:10:22 into events and behaviors that is beyond troubling that is troubling you're using real percentages Yeah, that's dangerous. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, so at this rate Next month we might be down to like 87 86 yeah, but you know even then with those percentages I feel like it's it's similar to the like, you know what? 90% of the time, this guy's great, love this guy. The other 10%, you know, when you're a vampire, you eat people.
Starting point is 00:10:53 It's a real problem, that 10%. It is a real problem. That 10% implicates the other 90 real harshly. Might make the other 90 not so important at all. Yeah, it's also not real numbers. Like, I don't know what it means that 90%, like you're that night possession is nine-tenths of the law That kind of thing sure sure sure is weird saying that means nothing. That's an interesting way of describing our government right now Nine-tenths of the Trump is good. No
Starting point is 00:11:21 Mmm, so Alex I think what he wants is, alright, this Epstein shits bad. But it's not on us. This isn't our fault. Is that possible? I think he wants it to just be like, let's see if we can isolate. All right. So whereas some of the behaviors of Epstein file gaslighting whitewash firestorm. Whereas that is extremely frustrating and extremely dangerous. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter because our global awakening in the United States is the epicenter of that, is exponential and is unstoppable. Unless the globalists release some super virus or have a nuclear war, and even that, in the end, they'll be defeated as people know they're behind it. Mad Fientist So Alex wants to try and create this image
Starting point is 00:12:20 that this is just one thing. This doesn't taint the rest of what we are. Our movement that, you know, whitewashed and brought to power this guy who could be involved in an Epstein coverup. Sure. That doesn't, you know, the fact that we were that gullible doesn't mean that we would fall for like the Antichrist
Starting point is 00:12:42 or something. Ah, boy, I feel like that is exactly what it means like to a tee. This is about as close to The Christians are gonna fall for the Antichrist, you know it you know, they will it's in the book Yeah, if you spend ten years following a false Messiah Yeah, I think you probably have no credibility when it comes to like hey look our judgments good except for this Where where does deals with the devil fall on sunk cost fallacy situation? You know what I'm saying like that's what we're finding out. We're learning where the line is all right So Alex talked to some of his sources behind the scenes, okay?
Starting point is 00:13:20 You got some more information about this right And it turns out this might just be Israel. Now, I've had some time to continue to research and talk to my sources about what's happening with the suppression of the Epstein case, not just a list of clients, the terabytes of child rape and the rest of it, and the desperate damage control spin we've seen. the the the the the the the
Starting point is 00:13:54 the the the the the the the inside the intelligence agencies in the DOJ, not even so much between the Democrat NGO Soros wing, that's more and more on the outside and being dismantled. Trump's really doing that.
Starting point is 00:14:13 But that into that vacuum has come Israel. Now people are always saying Israel runs all our foreign policy and Israel. People are saying that my research has been factions and power groups and Israel has not been dominant in our domestic policies and has not been dominant in our global foreign policies but has been steering the bus on the Middle East. But in this power vacuum and this global revolution happening, particularly here in the United States, Israel and the Likudniks are making a run at seizing control of MAGA right now. This is exactly the same narrative that Nick Fuentes was trying to pitch on Alex's show
Starting point is 00:14:55 in the aftermath of Israel bombing Iran. Israel and Netanyahu were supposedly trying to brand any Trump supporters who opposed the bombing as fake MAGA, and this was part of a plot to make Jewish conservatives like Mark Levin and Ben Shapiro the image of real MAGA. Alex is just re-appropriating the narrative now and applying it to the Epstein cover-up situation, which is shady. But this doesn't really make any sense. In the case of the Iran bombing, there's a clear split in teams.
Starting point is 00:15:24 One side performs war with Iran, the other does not. It makes sense from a storyline perspective for Alex and Nick to say that Israel is trying to influence MAGA in order to marginalize those who are against the war with Iran and promote those who support it. But how does this work with the Epstein cover-up? Which side is which? As it stands, Trump's Department of Justice has said that there's nothing to see here and everyone should just move along, which is creating a division in the right-wing base. There are those who have said, I guess we'll just move along,
Starting point is 00:15:54 like Charlie Kirk, and then there are those who have said, there's no way we're moving on, like Patrick Bette David or Tucker Carlson. It makes sense that people on either side of this divide might consider people on the other side to be fake MAGA, but which side, as Alex Tseng represents Israel trying to take over MAGA? I don't know what the point is. That's that you've agreed that, like we've established as fact now, or not fact, but like strong conjecture that Trump is in charge of the globalists, or at least has made a deal with the globalists. Yeah, he has the potential to be.
Starting point is 00:16:33 Right, right, right. But what it means is essentially we're all at a table together. Me, Trump, and the globalists are at a table together making decisions together. The devil. Which makes Trump a globalist, otherwise you're not in that room, and also the devil is there. Okay, the devil is there.
Starting point is 00:16:51 The real fucking devil. So Trump is in the room with all the globalists and the devil making decisions, which means if you don't like something, it is Trump's fault. Well, maybe, but maybe there's a deeper state. Now, no. See, we took care of the deep state.
Starting point is 00:17:11 It's turtles all the way down. Now it's a deeper state. Turtles all the way down, god damn it. Just underneath that turtle. There's one more turtle. You know, I wonder if we have, you know, like Snowden released all of this horrible stuff, but it didn't take anybody down. You know, it didn't take the government down.
Starting point is 00:17:27 It didn't take the president down. If there is a CIA operative now who releases all the Epstein stuff and Trump is in it, is that potentially more likely to topple the government than revealing war crimes? I don't know. I mean, like, I guess it depends on what is there. Right. You know, I suppose't know. I mean like I guess it depends on what is there right? You know, I suppose yeah Hypothetical like what is the the information that's there? Yeah But yeah, that is a bleak picture
Starting point is 00:17:54 That you know Yep, war crimes in America not that big a deal. Yeah So like this is not a good way for Alex to evolve the narrative The whole Trump decided he wanted to blackmail the globalist thing that was untenable, but it was a fine first effort This is disconcerting that after he's had time to think the angle he's decided to go with his Nick's anti-israel stuff Yeah, instead of what would be so much more in his best interest interest which is to say that Trump got a demon in him Yep, it's it's fine, but you can break ties walk in clone Robot all on the table. Yeah, not the only one that's not on the table is this is actually Trump
Starting point is 00:18:35 Yeah And David Ike is proof of concept that like it's possible to not destroy your entire career by being like nah fuck this guy Nope, fuck this guy. Nope, fuck this guy. You can speak, like, not truth, but you can speak something that power doesn't like and not be squashed. What I don't understand truly is like, right now is just the perfect time to be like,
Starting point is 00:18:59 no, we were right about Trump, he's been killed and replaced by a robot or a clone or whatever you like. Just we were right about everything, but there was a demarcation point where this is no longer the Trump that we were talking about, so we can all, without guilt at all, move on from our terrible decisions and mistakes. Yeah. Yeah. And somehow, like, look, we did everything we could, but the defense shields for demons dropped momentarily. Yeah. Totally. Maybe because of the no kings protest or something.
Starting point is 00:19:26 Make it the left's fault. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, who knows? Or we just made a miscalculation and then the blah blah blah. Yeah. So Alex has a piece of news that I think that if he actually believes what he's reporting, he should be like taking up arms. Okay.
Starting point is 00:19:42 And I'm just going to lay out the facts here about this Epstein gaslighting cover up whitewash that went from being a very dangerous fiasco Sunday into Monday with the DOJ memo that got leaked like a fart in church because they didn't want attention to it. But the Epstein the the the the the the
Starting point is 00:20:23 the the the Trappiker, there was no blackmail operation, and he killed himself. Now, already when they killed Epstein and covered this up over the last 15 years and killed him four or five years ago, it has already been a firestorm of firestorms because of the Streisand effect. We don't know what the strize and effect is. Barbara Streisand built this
Starting point is 00:20:49 giant mansion. On the beach, and she didn't want people talking about it. And when the local reporter talked about it, she attacked him. So then it got picked up by the international press. It was a giant story. And so by coming out and saying, actually, everything we told you in the past isn't true.
Starting point is 00:21:09 There aren't 14 terabytes of kids getting raped. There aren't all these new flight logs and blackmail. Forget about it. Go to sleep. It went to a whole nother level. This is the big issue. The general public finally understood the deep state through. And then when Trump came out in that press conference yesterday at about 1130 Central, we'll play the clip again, and got visibly angry, and then attacked the reporter, basically said, you're standing on the graves of dead kids
Starting point is 00:21:43 because they've just been talking in a free-for-all discussion about the tragedy in the Texas Hill Country. I mean that was a very unfair attack on a reporter that asked a really good question. And so the story went from mega massive to ultra massive. And so now behind the scenes, and a lot a lot of big reporters have talked about, I've talked to others that's happened to, they've had the FBI call them up. That's given them information in the past as a source and said, you're going to be cut off. If you don't stop talking about this. If you don't stop talking about this, okay So the FBI is threatening journalists to stop covering this. I feel like Alex should be like this is a red alert so
Starting point is 00:22:33 For me the red alert is Alex saying that he was being unfair to a journalist Which wild wild? Yeah, what is he saying? Trump the guy who yells about how all I mean reporters are the enemy of the people and all this stuff. Yeah, this one time Trump's being unfair. Do you remember whenever he made fun of the guy who was disabled? Fucking hell! Yeah, Trump's been historically quite unfair to journalists. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But this one, that was a really unfair response to it. What seems like a reasonable question. Yeah, not cool. Not cool.
Starting point is 00:23:08 Yeah, but you know, the FBI calling and threatening to cut off all access to everything in case you, you know, that's fairly normal though, right? It's so dumb for Alex to just be like, well, you know, this is just something to talk about. Like, no, you're supposed to be getting your battle rifles and shit. Like, this is what you're made for man I mean to bring it back this reminds me of the movie enemy of the state Starring Gene Hackman. Mm-hmm. We should have listened Alex should have listened as well. This all goes back to Hackman It's all about all about Hackman. We we missed it. Mm-hmm. Yep
Starting point is 00:23:41 Yep, so I think that if Alex believes this, you should be taking it far more seriously than he is. Yeah, absolutely. And I think it's kind of a little bit light. And that makes me not believe him. I have a question. Yeah. And I think I know the answer to this, but I would like to hear your response to it, okay? If the FBI called, let's call them If the FBI called, let's call them middle of the road journalists, the regular old working for CNN assholes, right? It was like, hey, I'm going to kill you if you do this stuff. Everybody would be like, this is an attack on the fourth estate. But if they're calling right wing journalists while Trump is in power, they're not going
Starting point is 00:24:27 to talk shit, are they? They're not going to be that mad. They're going to be like... They're going to do this. Yeah. This is what they're going to do. They're going to be like, oh, our boss told us to stop. Isn't that weird?
Starting point is 00:24:38 Isn't that weird? Yes. Well, but I think part of that is because I imagine this isn't actually the FBI. This is like fake weirdo, fake whistleblower types that like they're who the FBI is to Alex. Right. So maybe these threats aren't coming from the actual FBI. Right. But the presentation of it, the image of it is something that should be like a huge for alarm fire. Absolutely. No. You know, who cares? No big deal. I mean, that is, that I think really is emblematic of these people believe they work for the
Starting point is 00:25:11 government now. Yeah. And now like, if I got a call from the FBI and they were like, don't talk about this stuff, I'd be off to Mooseport. Yeah, no, I'm out. I'm out of here. It's another Heckman movie. Welcome to Mooseport.
Starting point is 00:25:23 Welcome to Mooseport. There we go. alex gets to some news headlines this shit sounds bad hmm alright so let's go to a bunch of these huge clips out of all the other amazingly important news we have new audio has been leaked of President Trump threatening to bomb Moscow and Beijing if they invade any countries Putin sends message to us with record 700 drone Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Moscow and Beijing. They invade any countries. Putin since
Starting point is 00:25:51 message to us with record 700 drone missiles in overnight attack on Ukraine, mainly targeting their capital, Kiev. Panic in Brussels globalists. Tremble as patriots for Europe group will lead negotiations on the EU's climate target and ditch the climate cult global carbon tax I mean it just goes on and on so this makes Trump seem like a Horrible leader and someone Alex should see as a threat to world peace and someone who's likely to launch a nuclear war
Starting point is 00:26:18 So I think that really building a lot of scaffolding to yeah Turn this guy into a villain. Even worse though, the idea that he would threaten that and we all know it's a bluff. That's a real bad leader. It's an empty threat? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well I think you'd have to assume it's an empty threat if the next headline is Russia is attacking Kiev.
Starting point is 00:26:42 Yeah, absolutely. So what are we doing here? The president just gets to talk shit whenever he wants? Yep. All right. We have a world of shit talkers. All right. So that last headline is interesting. A group with a name like Patriots for Europe is one that should make you a little suspicious. And as it turns out, this is an international organization of extreme far right and generally ultra nationalist political groups founded last year by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. Great!
Starting point is 00:27:08 It's basically an effort to make an anti-internationalist EU, which is fucking dumb. This is a group that grew out of the ashes of another group called Identity and Democracy, which included such winners as Germany's AFD and Marine Le Pen's National Rally Parties. Identity and Democracy was a group that came together in 2019 after the collapse of another group called Europe of Nations and Freedoms, which itself was created just a few years earlier. Right. Basically, these coalitions of extreme far-right elements get together and form a new super group every few years, and then it falls apart because someone decides to get a little too overtly Nazi in their messaging, and they have to come up with
Starting point is 00:27:46 a new name for branding purposes. Patriots for Europe is the current one and we should start the clock on this name being abandoned probably by around 2028. Yeah, yeah it seems like you know it seems like a good idea like hey let's bring all of our hate groups together but then you're like wait isn't a hate group based around a lack of togetherness in all effects yeah so then here we are each of us has like a couple seats in these bodies and you know maybe we can work together oh no no I hate you I am a bag filled of hate so Alex for what he's you know it's worth
Starting point is 00:28:26 He's trying to get off into other topics cover some other news now Trump threatening to bomb people and what have you? But you can't avoid the elephant the Epstein elephant in the room. Yeah, and so Alex is like I'm not going for this I'm not I'm not going along with this Epstein What an insult to everyone's intelligence. And let me tell you, 95% of the time Trump's saying something it's true, I defend him. I do it constantly. My job is easy. But not now. And I won't defend this. Carlson says this could trigger and spark a revolution. Carlson says this could trigger and spark a revolution. Ben Shapiro, though, is in my view, I mean, definitely is from his actions, probably a massage agent, but definitely works for Israel. Always has. He came out and said Epstein didn't do anything basically.
Starting point is 00:29:18 And there was no money funding him. Don't look into all the other known Israeli operatives like Lex Wessner and all the rest of them. And by the way, you're either for Trump or Alex Jones. So he builds the strongman, classic intelligence formula. It's coming up. You're either with the crazy person, Alex Jones, or you're with Trump. And then he quotes CNN articles that are fake, that my lawyers said 12 years ago in a custody battle that I'm an actor and nothing I say is real. It's not true they never said that.
Starting point is 00:29:55 Adam Suellentrop So Alex has, I guess, just decided like, okay, Israel's, we're going to say that Israel's trying to take over MAGA. Yeah. High profile Jewish commentators in the right wing are going to be Mossad agents. Yep. And this is just like, okay, you're just deciding that you're going with that branch of the right wing. You're cozying up to that. Yeah, yeah, I mean... It's... pretty fucking predictable.
Starting point is 00:30:23 Mm-hmm. Like, what was this wind-up breaking apart on? You know, they're not going to blame each other for fucking up the very obvious thing that they fucked up. They're all going to find some sort of proxy reason to blame each other because it's all your faults together. Yeah, and like, what audience is Alex realistically going to chase after like this? Yeah. When you need to make a pivot, it's not like he's going to be able to find some left wing leaning audience. Yeah. It's not like the rhinos are going to like accept
Starting point is 00:30:57 him or want any of this bullshit. Yeah. The only thing that is available is probably like more extreme folks. I've been saying this for years and the indications are that when forced, when the temperature rises this is the direction Alex is going to go. Towards the neo-Nazi-ish wing of the right wing. Somehow they represent safety to him. Right. And I think it's really unfortunate but at the same time, like I'm not saying people should embrace Alex with open arms to keep him away from the Nazis.
Starting point is 00:31:31 That's not how it works. No. Glenn Beck's apology tour wasn't sincere. You shouldn't fall for it with Alex either. You really shouldn't fall for it with Alex. So he just decides like, I'm go against Shapiro Shapiro is gonna be Shapiro mentioned my name. Yeah, and so we're going to war Yeah, but she's convicted of human trafficking, but you'll hear Shapiro say talk about Maxwell driving
Starting point is 00:31:57 Because they put out a two-page memo and said so okay And how do you expect us? Not to sit here and go what what in the world is this? I got to tell you, I think they thought because Trump, you know, has so much support, has done such a great job overall, that survived the assassination attempts on the law fair, that when he came out and said on and did all this, that we would just say, okay, but almost no one is buying this. And people are being told now other prominent talk show hosts, I'm not going to name them,
Starting point is 00:32:33 though some are going public. You keep reporting on this, you're not going to have White House credentials. You're not going to get invited on Air Force One. You're not going to blah, blah, blah. The FBI is doing that. Why would the FBI put itself in a position of total damage control? Because Bongino and Patel and Trump were manipulated by people telling them shut this down, move on from this, knowing it would create a firestorm. And now the deep state will come and say, don't worry, we'll manage this, we'll control this, we'll start censoring. We can protect you. So they maneuver them into an unmitigated Streisand effect disaster And then out from under a rock crawls the discredited
Starting point is 00:33:12 Israel firsters Mark Levin and Shapiro and the rest of them To say Alex Jones just hates America So this is tortured stuff and it really makes Trump look like a total piece of shit, but it's important to understand that Alex's only goal here is to make sure that no one thinks that Trump was associated with Epstein and is implicated by his crimes. Alex has turned his career into an exploitative crusade against child abusers, and he likes
Starting point is 00:33:41 to pretend that he was the first to cover the Epstein story. So the entire House of Cards really comes down if Alex has to face the reality that the last ten years of his life has been dedicated to shamelessly defending Epstein's best friend. Alex has claimed that he researched this heavily and he vetted Trump, so the idea that he could have possibly missed something so obviously disqualifying is a severe threat to Alex's credibility, around an issue that his audience is actually hysterical about.
Starting point is 00:34:09 Trump doing something self-defeating in terms of the economy, that's spinnable, because the audience really only abstractly cares about those types of issues, but this one's visceral. Trump cannot be involved with the Epstein stuff, because if he is, then Alex is either incompetent at vetting messiahs, or he knowingly covered it up in order to sell Trump to the audience. Because it's so important to steer people away from that conclusion, Alex has to come up with these alternative explanations that make Trump look super bad, but still maintain
Starting point is 00:34:38 the game. He's still a good guy, but he was put into an unwinnable situation by the forces of evil, you gotta understand, they maneuvered it. You also notice that Alex is going hard into blaming Israel here. This is an indication of the desperation that he has to spin the story in a way that isn't damning about his own support for Trump over the years. And seen through that lens, like, it's all first of all makes total sense yeah and second it's it's just like okay um yeah I didn't kill this guy because I was busy robbing a store yeah
Starting point is 00:35:13 or whatever yeah you're coming up with an alibi that is also yeah really shit no it feels it feels like like in our lives whenever he's been, like if we call this a game of chess, you get pinned. You've got one piece and if you move it out of the way to protect it, it's only going to get another piece killed. That kind of concept. There's no escape. There's no escape from this pin. Somebody's going down. But in our lives, we've seen him do that and he's like, actually, but the night can fly. Sorry. It's a flying night. No big deal. None of this is real. It's not fifth dimensional chess. It's crazy chess.
Starting point is 00:35:53 Yeah, it's cuckoo chess. Yeah. None of this is real. Also the opponent is fake. He's not really playing against anybody. Right. It's me. And I'm upside down in this one. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And this feels like there's's just it's reality's hit yeah we're on the board the piece is pinned you got to do something he's like playing chess alone in a park by his own rules and someone has accidentally sat down and is now playing against him oh fuck yeah it turns out I don't know how to play chess shit so Alex So Alex, there's a lot of people who have a lot of beliefs about Epstein being connected
Starting point is 00:36:29 to intelligence agencies. Now I don't want to say you're wrong to believe that. I don't want to say that it's definitely proven. But the biggest piece of evidence that a lot of people point to is Alexander Acosta, the former secretary of labor that Trump appointed, who has made some comments about, or allegedly has made some comments about how he was made to hands off, treat Epstein hands off during the 2008 prosecution back when he was in Florida. Which we all know because of the deal that he was given. Well,
Starting point is 00:37:07 it's implied in a way. Right. Um, but Alex, this is the big, you know, big piece of evidence for him. Yeah. Um, and so he plays a clip of Acosta that he thinks is going to be a slam dunk, nail in the coffin type of thing. And it's actually the opposite. Here's another one. Jeffrey Epstein, six story played out years in plain sight. Here it is right there. And of course, Roger Stone recently put out this tweet. When Alexander Acosta, the US attorney for South Florida, who gave Epstein a pass on sex trafficking charges was appointed secretary of labor, he was asked why he would say about his handling
Starting point is 00:37:44 of the Epstein case if asked about it in the U.S. Senate confirmation hearings. Acosta said, I'll tell the truth that he worked for the CIA and the case was sealed at their request. And here he is then being asked about it and saying he can't comment. Here's the video. here's the video. One more question. Richard Lardner from the Associated Press. Mr. Secretary, were you ever made aware at any point you're handling this case if Mr Epstein was an intelligence asset of some sort? So so so there has there has been reporting to that effect. And let me say, there's been reporting to a lot of effects in this case, not just now but over the years. And again, I would hesitate to take this reporting as fact.
Starting point is 00:38:41 This was a case that was brought by our office. It was brought based on the facts. And I look at that reporting and others. I can't address it directly because of our guidelines. But I can tell you that a lot of reporting is just going down rabbit holes. A few more questions. A few more questions. Have you asked a question yet? I have, but I got to go. Okay. How about then in front of you? Yes. Sorry, I'm done.
Starting point is 00:39:08 All right. So, Roger, you have been right there at point blank range. Oh, Roger's there. Oh. So it's painfully clear that Alex didn't know what was in that clip before he played it because it makes the opposite point from what he was trying to say. Alexander Acosta was Trump's choice for Labor Secretary in his first term, which is a strange choice because he was the prosecutor who worked out that sweetheart deal that saved Epstein from a ton of jail time in 2008. In 2019, a journalist
Starting point is 00:39:34 named Vicki Ward published an article in the Daily Beast that cited an anonymous source who told her that Acosta had said that he was told that Epstein, quote, belonged to intelligence and that he needed to leave it alone. Ward has stood by her anonymous source, but Acosta has also publicly refuted this in a vague way in that clip that Alex just played and in a much more direct way when he spoke with the Justice Department Office of Professional Responsibility in 2020. It may well be the case that Epstein had some connections to intelligence, but Alexander Acosta's alleged comment doesn't do a good job of proving that. But it's good enough for Alex, and he's very uncurious, so he doesn't seem to even
Starting point is 00:40:11 consider that it's possible that the clip that he's about to play is Acosta saying that Epstein wasn't intelligence. Also, Alex needs to cut off Roger. Regardless of the path that Alex chooses to go down, Roger is no good for it. If he wants to become less extreme and more like a libertarian type, Roger's way too loyal to Trump to make that pivot with him. If he wants to lean into the anti-Semitism thing and swing with Nick Fuentes, Roger isn't going to go along with that because he knows that's a dead end. Whatever Alex does now, he needs to put on his big boy pants and stop
Starting point is 00:40:42 taking Roger's call. There's nothing, yeah, there's nothing to do there. That well is gone. Yeah. I mean, you can't listen. And you know what? I think it's totally reasonable for Roger because nothing Alex does can compete with getting a pardon.
Starting point is 00:40:58 Nothing. There's nothing that you can do that's like, oh, well, I saved you from years of jail time. Nope. I'm in Trump's back pocket because he pardoned me. It's that simple. There's something also really weird that Roger does bring up and that is that like he says that he reported this Acosta quote in his book, the Clinton's war on women, which came out in 2015. Roger reported it. Right, he says that. Okay.
Starting point is 00:41:27 And then this Vicki Ward article is in 2019, which is later. So that would have, it would strongly imply that maybe Ward's anonymous source is Roger Stone. But I'm not sure exactly what is in his book. And I think that might be also him fudging some details. But whatever the case, it's a little bit less concrete. The Acosta angle on this is a little bit less solid than Alex wants to make it. So Roger is in and of course his take is Trump's fucking cool. Obviously. He's
Starting point is 00:42:02 great. He's the best. The problem is that Biden destroyed evidence. That sounds true. Jeffrey Epstein was charged in Manhattan with two crimes. Count one was sex trafficking of minors, violation of 18 U.S. Code 1591, and conspiracy to commit sex trafficking of minors, violation of 18 U.S.C. Code 371. But those grand jury testimony is sealed. Also, the search warrants are sealed. Pam Bondi can clear the air here by directing the U.S. attorney, the acting U.S. attorney, the interim U.S. attorney in the southern district of New York to go into federal court and ask the court to unseal those documents. They didn't indict this guy without evidence, and the evidence has to be within those documents. When Cash Patel and Dan Bongino
Starting point is 00:42:57 tell you they don't have the evidence, they're not lying. The evidence was destroyed by the previous administration. They can't give you what they do not have. But the court has this information and they should move aggressively to ask that it be unsealed. That's a great point. So Alex says that this is a great point, but I'm not sure that he realizes that this completely
Starting point is 00:43:19 contradicts everything he's been saying since this story broke. The narrative is incompatible with Alex's coverage, where he's like, they made a deal and all this stuff, but Alex can see like, oh, that could work. Roger, you might be onto something here. We could say that Biden just destroyed all the evidence. That would be insane. But they also didn't destroy the stuff that's in these warrants. Yeah, come on, man.
Starting point is 00:43:42 They did like a half cover up. Yeah. Great. Yeah. That on man. They they they did like a half cover-up. Yeah, great. Yeah. Yep. That makes sense It's the person seeing the light like the the ooh, there's my escape hatch. I can maybe do this No, buddy, you're in the movie the descent you ain't getting out of there. There's monsters You've already committed a lot to this narrative that you're building. Mm-hmm You can't go along with Roger on this one. Too late, too late, you blew it. And part of the reason is because Roger's story feels good for a second, but there's also like,
Starting point is 00:44:11 why did Trump lash out at that reporter then? Like, what's going on? This doesn't make sense, Roger. He's got, it's such a great, oh, oh no. What are you talking about? Yeah, this might work with another employee at info wars But Alex is like what would we do come on buddy, but overall agree with what you're saying here My big concern is who is advising?
Starting point is 00:44:37 Who is coming up who advises the why is it good to have bond Gino and Patel and and and and and Pam Bondi and now Trump Going out and contradicting stuff that they said in the last few years in the last few months the the current human trafficking. Why not just say that? Why freak out on reporters? Why come out and wag their fingers at people and say you need to stop talking about this? I mean, anybody knows that if you tell people don't look into something or don't talk about it, I mean, that is going to have the exact opposite effect. So great advice. Hey, you've got him being indicted in New York. You've got the court case.
Starting point is 00:45:25 There's the evidence there of the human trafficking. How can gasoline be in jail for human trafficking? But now this new memo says that there is no human trafficking. I mean, this is just preposterous. What else should Trump do? I think he has to make a clean and breast of it. I suspect this is speculation.
Starting point is 00:45:44 I'm not gonna say this on the air, but don't you think the Israelis, the breast of it. I suspect, this is speculation, I'm not gonna say it's on the air, but don't you think the Israelis, the Brits, the Saudis, everybody else who has dirty laundry here is saying to Trump, you know, this is, we can't have this out, this is very problematic for us. At the same time, he's trying to negotiate a peace deal on a world war three. That's a guess on my part, I haven't talked to him about this.
Starting point is 00:46:05 Well, no, there's no doubt that's what's not a guess. Obviously the entire establishment would come down and so all these allies are bare minimum begging, especially the British do not release this. I think that's a no brainer. Why then come out and slap people around and say, stop asking questions? You know. I'm not sure. You know why. then come out and slap people around and say stop asking questions.
Starting point is 00:46:25 You know, I'm not sure. You know why the president's got larger things on his mind at the moment. One of my favorite things is I'm not going to say this on air on air on air. Oh my God. You can see that Alex desperately wants to accept Roger's spin, but there's just that sticking point that it doesn't make sense. Why are Trump and the people around him lying and changing their stories if this is just a situation where Biden destroyed the evidence? Roger's story
Starting point is 00:46:50 doesn't deal with Trump's very suspicious response, and Alex is like asking him to help. Just help with that. Cover over it. And the answer Roger gives is essentially that Trump doesn't want to upset the establishment. The international deep state would be severely impacted by Trump releasing this information, which he doesn't have anyway because Biden supposedly destroyed it. So even if Biden hadn't done that, Trump couldn't just put this stuff out. That might take down the establishment. This highlights a big difference between Alex and Roger. Alex is an idiot and thinks he's fighting against the establishment, but really he's
Starting point is 00:47:25 just flailing around and trying to beat up immigrants. Roger is fundamentally a huge fan of the establishment. He just wants power within it, which he's achieved in part by tricking anti-establishment people into being his mob, which is what he does. They've paid him a lot of money over the years. The establishment loves Roger. Yeah. Roger wants nothing more than to maintain that establishment and be powerful in it. Yep. Alex thinks, like, I've waged this crusade against the deep state and all this stuff. Yeah. And now he's faced with a situation of like, okay, why isn't Trump doing this thing that we really want him to do? And his mentor is a guy is like, that would ruin the deep state, man.
Starting point is 00:48:09 Like, okay, so for a lot of stuff, you know, that people live within, you know, that like this is right or wrong or all that stuff. Reasons can alter people's perception of how right or how wrong. There can be things where it's like, well, maybe this is this, but maybe we're not over here. And you don't know all the details and you don't know what this person is going through. But sometimes you pass over into a place where you may or may not have accurate details. You may not know all the details, but no matter what you do, you're not going to change the fundamental reality. And that is you all know what's happening here. At least
Starting point is 00:48:46 you're worried about what you know you know that something is amiss. No matter what details come out they will not reinforce the things are going to be fine with this guy. Yeah you know for your ideology and your worldview that you've built up there's gonna be problems. If there was going to be a no actually we didn't do this it would would already be out most likely and and I think that like You have to be like there has to be a like rock-bottom type moment Yeah, when you're sitting there talking to Roger Stone and you're like, why isn't he putting this out? He's like well, it would destroy the deep state of the establishment that wasn't that our whole idea
Starting point is 00:49:24 That's why we elected Trump. Yep I was like, well, it would destroy the deep state and the establishment. Wasn't that our whole idea? That's why we elected Trump. We elected him to destroy the establishment. And who cares about these allies in intelligence agencies and other countries that would be hurt? How could you possibly argue to Alex Jones, no, Trump can't release the Epstein files because there are some prime ministers in other countries who will be fired Yeah, the globalists will get in trouble if he does that. Yeah, what? Yeah, are you shitting me? That's your pitch?
Starting point is 00:49:51 Yeah, fuck me Rogers. Just the bad guy all along. Yes. Yep. Here we go. Oh Alex. You're so stupid So Roger explains to Alex Alex asks him about like what about the left? They're doing all this violence They're all mad at ice. Yeah. Having protests and stuff. Oh that left. And Roger's like yeah Trump uses martial law that's fine. There we go! And Alex's response is thank you. There needs to be blood, Democrat lawmaker Tlaxios, that their constituents want violence and want to elicit a response from Trump so they can play victim, have a civil war, that's the Podesta plan.
Starting point is 00:50:28 What do you make of this? And there are no kings thing fizzling out to a great extent. I mean, but it appears they're still trying to get a civil war going. I think they would be very, very unwise to test Donald J. Trump. You notice that unlike when we had the Antifa BLM riots during his first term, and he was persuaded to let governors make decisions about how to deal with that, as soon as you
Starting point is 00:50:58 had problems in Los Angeles, he mobilized the National Guard. He also sent in the Marines. Those who think that they can mount an insurrection are going to see that insurrection crushed. The first responsibility of the President of the United States is to maintain order. That is his responsibility under the Constitution. This president has already demonstrated that he will do that. So those who are planning violence, that he will do that. So those who are planning violence, they better think twice. Donald Trump is not to be trifled with. He will be the law and order president and he will maintain order and protect the American people. Roger Stone, stonezone.com. Thank you so much. I think it's
Starting point is 00:51:38 really important to understand how far Alex has drifted from the principles that he's supposed to care about. He believes staunchly in states' rights, and it's always tyrannical for a president to use the National Guard without a state's governor approving it. FEMA can't even do disaster preparation or relief work without a governor requesting it, according to Alex. And now here you have Roger telling Alex that Trump will disregard a governor's wishes and commandeer the National Guard and even send in the military in order to quell protests. Earlier in this episode, Alex was talking about the FBI calling journalists and threatening
Starting point is 00:52:11 them to stop covering the Epstein story, which is a comical example of violating the First Amendment. Alex thinks that if Twitter doesn't let you harass people, it's a free speech violation worthy of going to war. But now the FBI can directly coerce the press and maybe it's not a huge deal Like he's gone man. This is nonsense Just after Roger leaves. This is how Alex describes the FBI's actions I'm gonna have Kyle seraphine pop in for just 30 minutes the FBI whistleblower because he pointed out to me and also got some calls
Starting point is 00:52:42 Some of the prominent influencers and talk show hosts that are you calls from the FBI, hey, you might get kicked out of the White House or whatever. You know, if you keep reporting on this, that is the dumbest thing to do ever. Don't start acting like the Democrats. And whoever's giving the FBI the advice to do this, I mean, you're being set up. This isn't a fundamental violation of the freedom of the press. It's not bullying and intimidating meant to cover up a story about a human trafficker. It's just dumb and probably a setup. It's just dumb. This is dumb.
Starting point is 00:53:13 Don't do this. I mean, you know, in terms of just like pure, let's get rid of all of the realities and let's just go with what is happening from a broad sense. Historically speaking, it's almost never happened that an out of control, megalomaniacal dictator when facing a challenge would wind up destroying himself in the attempt to overcome that challenge and keep people from seeing it. So any action that this megalomaniacal idiot dictator takes isn't necessarily going to actually lead to the downfall he's trying to avoid.
Starting point is 00:53:45 Now, thankfully, there's almost no examples of that throughout history. Yeah, we're in the clear. Yeah, I can't think of any. So what's going on is just like a squabble between the Israeli intelligence and the US intelligence about who gets to control this blackmail file. Yeah, what are we going to do? And Alex is like, I think Trump will be fine if he just shuts up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:07 And we know Israel is heavily involved with Epstein, the CIA. And I'm told by very high level sources that that's what this is, is an internal fight over that file between those two groups, US intelligence and Israeli intelligence. And I think it's a role in the clear that's what's happening. So we'll continue to watch this as it unfolds, but for heaven's sakes, no more press conferences saying shut up, don't ask questions. All you're going to get is questions out of that and I am really, really trying to not get the Trump administration to self-harm here. Okay?
Starting point is 00:54:43 Please. I'm trying to patch up the holes. I'm trying to make this work. Guys stop it. Stop it. I mean- And they do not stop it. Like in the conversation, you know, you've got, did you do this?
Starting point is 00:54:56 Yes, I did. Oh no. Or did you do this? No, I didn't. I don't think so, but it's your word against mine. You know, if you just give me yes or no There's really nowhere to go from that. You know I've got a follow-up question My answer is also no you know, but if you give me like actually here's a 12 hour video
Starting point is 00:55:16 With the minute missing no no no no you've done far more harm than if you had just said now We didn't do it yeah And I think that you know the answer that Pam Bondi has about that minute missing is that every night the cameras reset. Oh, well. So there's always a minute missing, which is something that could be true,
Starting point is 00:55:39 but is unacceptable in this situation. Because also, if you want to say that it does that every night, then I guess the way you would prove that is release video of every night that minute being missing Yeah, but also anyone could just take that minute out of other days recordings Yep, in order you you're trapped in a way that like never should have released that you'd have to be insane to release that video it's it's um It's definitely like even in the most benign circumstances where you are not lying at all about that minute that's
Starting point is 00:56:11 going to be missing, you still have now shot yourself in the foot again. Like what Alex is saying, you're self-harming as a power block. Hey, listen, if there's anything I know, it's that the Zapruder film stopped conspiracy theories from happening. Yeah. So Alex does not get his wish of no more outbursts. It's that the Zapruder film stopped conspiracy theories from happening. Yeah, so
Starting point is 00:56:29 Alex does not get his wish of no more outbursts. There's gonna be more But for now Alex is he seems to be fine to just like attack Mark Levin and Ben Shapiro And say that they're trying to run cover for Israel trying to take over MAGA. Yeah Through the Epstein And then I I wanna talk about Ben Shapiro. This is a lot bigger than Ben Shapiro. It's about the methodology of how these disinformation operations work. And you know when Ben Shapiro and Mark Levin
Starting point is 00:57:02 come out from under the rocks that they're working for Benjamin Netanyahu and they know exactly what they're doing and they don't want this Epstein situation looked into." Ben Shapiro and Mark Levin haven't been hiding under rocks and just popped up now to chime in on the Epstein situation. They both have daily radio shows that are broadcast on so many more stations than Infowars. Ben Shapiro runs probably the most successful right wing media outlet at the moment, The
Starting point is 00:57:28 Daily Wire, and Levin is a big player at Glenn Beck's network, The Blaze. They're huge. They're constantly putting stuff out. They pump out content all the time, and they are sure to comment on pretty much every topic that riles up Twitter because their businesses, they run on the same attention economy as Alex's. So it's kind of suspicious that Alex is saying that these two high-profile Jewish conservatives have just now come out from under their rock to do some misinformation on behalf of Israel. I suspect that the reason Alex might have this impression is because that he doesn't
Starting point is 00:58:01 necessarily see Shapiro or Levin's content regularly He probably doesn't follow them on Twitter and he definitely doesn't listen to their shows I would guess that the only times that Shapiro or Levin pop up on his radar are when someone like Nick Fuentes is tweeting Antisemitic shit about them which would explain a lot of Alex's tone. Yeah in this like say, oh they popped up again No, the Nazis that you follow on Twitter are just mad at them at this point. Yeah, you're never gonna get away from the, like, we live in this world now where you can turn and somebody's like, yeah, 50 million people love this and you're like, I have never heard of that before
Starting point is 00:58:36 in my entire life, where? You'll never know! Okay, great. Yeah, and like I mentioned earlier, there are people who are like Charlie Kirk, who are going along with the, you know, the idea of like, wow, I guess, I guess Trump said that there's nothing to see here, you know, and like, oh, weirdly, he's not the person that is being used as an example.
Starting point is 00:58:57 Yeah, it's a very intentional like these are high profile Jewish figures in the right wing media that are being attacked because it's easier to connect this anti-Semitism that goes through Alex's right wing world with Israel. I mean, it's never, you know, like, fuck it. Who was it? Was it Rom? Like, don't waste a crisis, you know, like you've got this You've got an opportunity to like hey Maybe we purged some voices that are my competition and here's our opportunity to use this stuff and use this stuff
Starting point is 00:59:33 It doesn't matter what we do. We just got to get rid of them. No horrible, so Alex says Something along the lines of like I think this is a probably a fair point and that is a we can't let ourselves be gaslight Gas lit in order to support Trump like he can't piss on us and tell us it's raining Right. We just can't do that. Where have you been? Yeah, been under a rock getting pissed on for the last ten years drinking all the piss drinking all that can't be in a position When they feed us rocks and tell us they're strawberries there I use the nice analogy good I didn't say piss on us and
Starting point is 01:00:09 tell us it's raining I just did hmm crap on us and tell us to love it so just whoever's coming up with these ideas is setting up the Trump administration. And that's what Carl Seraphine said on Monday. He believes it is because he understands how this works. And I agree with him. Again, Nixon was barely even involved with the plumbers. They did it on their own. He told them, go get dirt on people. The CIA was running them.
Starting point is 01:00:42 Then they set up Nixon who they hated. Then they got him through that. So Trump's busy and he's got his people running around getting all this bad advice. And I'm not defending any of this by saying it. I just know how all this stuff works. Roger tell you that. So what exactly is Alex trying to say is a setup here? Again, the case of Nixon, Alex is saying that Nixon didn't do anything, but he also told the plumbers to go get dirt on people. So I'm not sure what the setup is here.
Starting point is 01:01:10 He seems to have, Alex is saying he did the thing that, oh well. The horrible reality that Alex can't allow himself or his audience to face is that the person giving the Trump administration their marching orders is Trump. There's no one setting Trump up. They just didn't think the conspiracy brained audience would be all that upset when he tried to cover up their biggest conspiracy because they've gone along with everything else up to this point. It's kind of easy to see how Trump and all those folks would think this is no big deal and that the media folks would all toe the line and go along with this. They've done it every time.
Starting point is 01:01:44 Trump is setting Trump up here or more accurately, Trump is setting up his followers who want to still folks would all toe the line and go along with this. They've done it every time. Yep. Trump is setting Trump up here. Or more accurately, Trump is setting up his followers who want to still pretend they care about the conspiracies that they use to get Trump elected. Trump's first run was full of crowds chanting to lock up Hillary, and then when he got into office, he said that worked well during the campaign, but he didn't care about it anymore. This is basically the same thing, except with the added layer that Trump was best friends with Epstein, and there's some really shady there. So it's just him trying to jettison the Rockets again.
Starting point is 01:02:15 I mean, it's just, it's so hard. It's so hard to watch these people do this terrorist edging for so long, and then get to this place where it's like, you know all you need to do. There's just gonna be a moment and it's gonna happen and then we're gonna move into the next stage of our lives. But there's no escape. You're pinned.
Starting point is 01:02:37 You're pinned. There's no escape from this. There's no way, even if Trump escapes and nobody gets any consequences and yada yada, you know, the world is the world. There's still way, even if Trump escapes, and nobody gets any consequences and yada yada, the world is the world, there's still no escape. There's still no way for you to have an argument with somebody that doesn't end with, well, what about Epstein?
Starting point is 01:02:53 And you going, yeah, what about Epstein? That's it. And the whole thing is about arguing on Twitter. The whole right-wing media is all just about who can argue the most. And it doesn't matter if your arguments are right, just that they're adjacent enough or angry enough to continue the fight. But if this fight is just, what about Epstein, and you go, yeah, what about Epstein?
Starting point is 01:03:15 Then your entire media sphere is done. Yeah. Well, it's definitely threatened. Yeah. And Trump may not face like real actual consequences because he's operating in the sphere of power Right, whereas Alex is operating in the sphere of like attention manipulation imaginary power Yeah and and a large part of what's made his his game work is this
Starting point is 01:03:41 proximity to the real power that Trump has right but now he needs to give that up in order to maintain his ability to operate in that attention fake power space. Yeah. And so he, yeah, he's just, it's a crisis. It's, you have to pick one. The wizard's gotta get up in the balloon, man. Can't hide behind the curtain anymore. Yep.
Starting point is 01:04:00 Yep. So why would Trump do this? Because he did it! Why would he do Trump do this? Because he did it. Because he did it. God, it's so dumb. Why would he do it? Why would this guy who was holding a bloody knife right next to this dead body, why would he hold that bloody knife? Why would he let someone tell him to hold that knife? It's a terrible idea for him to be. He goes to this dead body and then he holds the knife of the person. It's a terrible idea. He needs better counsel about what to hold. That's really the issue. Absolutely. And I'm just watching the Trump administration
Starting point is 01:04:35 self harm and I'm just sitting here saying, uh, you're the lifeboat here. Like we know the Democrats, You're the life boat here. Like we know the Democrats, the globalist are as evil as it gets. We know it's 90 plus Democrats and left us with the Epstein thing. We know it's Bill Gates and all the
Starting point is 01:04:58 rest of them. Why would you do this? And it's because they made a deal to roll over and stop opposing Trump. You can already see it. And they said, Oh, just one thing. We want you to join in the cover up with us so you'll never bring it out against us again. We want you to say it's closed and there was nothing there. And they give them a list of it. And then it happens. And Trump just thinks it's the right thing to do. And he's got so much support. He can do it. I mean, it's not like I'm not up here telling Trump how to cover things
Starting point is 01:05:25 up. I'm here exposing the whole thing, but I'm also saying, who is it giving you people this advice? Because for heaven's sakes, if you're going to use the blackmail file in the deep state and you're going to do all that, then up. Don't treat us like we're stupid. Because we're not. It really feels like Alex is trying to advise Trump on how he should cover up this Epstein stuff by just shutting up and using it to blackmail Alex's enemies. Seems very emphatic about that. Yeah. I love the part of Alex's fantasy where the globalists have to insist that Trump's Department of Justice puts out a memo saying that there's no evidence
Starting point is 01:06:08 of the Epstein trafficking stuff as if the government works on a no take back system. What are you going to do? The FBI said this now, they can't possibly ever say something different later. What would happen? It's all smooth sailing. Chaos. This is an aspect of the narrative that sounds ridiculous and wouldn't be necessary if Trump just took Alex's advice and shut up. Because Trump keeps talking and saying really suspicious stuff, Alex has to try to explain that all the way, because this is Alex still trying to defend Trump. It just looks like shit because there isn't a good explanation for any of this.
Starting point is 01:06:42 Like it's, yeah, he's saying there's a cover-up but that's because the alternative is so much worse. Yeah, you can't, you can't like knowledge of good and evil this, once you have it, it's too late. You can't be like, oh man, if I didn't know this I could totally still support Trump. I would have all of the support of Trump I need, so what if I just didn't know this? That's not how it works. You know it now too late Yep, you're fucked the get out of the garden dude. The veil has been lifted in terms of what's plausible. Mm-hmm Now here's my favorite clip that we've had in a long time. All right now, I think there's you know, there's some historical Stuff that maybe people would you know argue about but there's one glaring error in this clip. I'm going
Starting point is 01:07:27 to play it. Mic down for this. I want to see if you catch it because I think you might. And they tried to kill Hitler in Operation Valkyrie and they failed. It wasn't the German high command weren't Nazis. Wasn't the German high command. No, they knew they'd lost the Russians by the were out producing weapons 3 to 1. They knew the US was getting ready to invade. And so they said, All right, they only get about half the German officers be part of it. They wanted a new person to lead Germany. They thought, well, who's as popular as Hitler? Only one person. Rommel, the Desert Fox. And of course, right after they tried to blow Trump up in the Wolf Slayer
Starting point is 01:08:23 And of course, right after they tried to blow Trump up in the wolf's lair with the explosive, they placed it up against the big table leg so it was deflected and Hitler was hard to kill. They learned that in World War I, blew him to the wall, but he still got up and went back to work with his arm paralyzed. Oops. That's unfortunate. Sometimes, you know, you can you can be like, ah, Sigmund Freud was a coked up lunatic who was probably just touching people inappropriately. But sometimes you go that Freudian flip thing. He was on to something there. It was hard to kill just like Trump saying fight, fight, fight. And
Starting point is 01:09:01 Butler. Yeah, I, you know I you know hey come on we all misspeak I'm I'm not gonna be the person who's like this means everything but it's funny well okay so we all misspeak oftentimes whenever we mix up words that sound similar or have similar meanings or we intend to say one word and it comes out as the other word. Things that we associate. Combined together. And sometimes words do not sound at all alike. Like Trump and Hitler? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:29 And the only thing that connects those two things is very suspicious that you would connect those two things that way as well. Yeah. Yeah, like if they occupy a similar kind of role in your mind as heroic figures heroic figures. Yeah, yeah Yeah, we're weird weird weird strange so Alex plays a clip of bench Bureau talking some shit sure and I think that this is a this is a weird thing because like I
Starting point is 01:09:58 Don't care about bench Bureau, but Alex is clearly misrepresenting. What do you say? But here's been Shapiro saying none of you ever had any evidence. There's no evidence. Do you hear this memo says there's no evidence. There's just people in prison that worked with him for human trafficking, but that didn't happen either. Nope. Your FBI said it.
Starting point is 01:10:18 Trump said it. So you're either with Trump and Bongino or you're with that crazy guy who admits he's fake. Alex Jones. When did I say I was fake? Oh, well CNN said in the court filing, didn't say that. But that's what they do. Intelligence agency talking point. Here come the Israelis to the rescue.
Starting point is 01:10:39 The bugle, the cavalry, here comes Ben Shapiro. Here he is. We now have the answers. And the problem is this. People who never hedged their bets, people who never at any point suggested to you that they don't have data to back up the speculation, that the speculation was in and of itself the conclusion that if you speculate without evidence that that amounts to an actual conclusion to an investigation, they're going to be very upset today because it turns out that the DOJ and the FBI have
Starting point is 01:11:07 concluded that Epstein didn't have a client list and died by suicide, according to a memo detailing the findings obtained by Axios. Now again, does this put to bed like all inquiries? Of course not. People can continue to speculate as much as they want. And I think there's still open questions here regarding how did Epstein make his money. That's a very serious open question. The speculation for a long time was he made his money from blackmail. But the DOJ and
Starting point is 01:11:28 the FBI, again, run by people like Dan Bongino and Cash Patel and Pam Bondi are telling you they are telling you, I'm not telling you, they're telling you people who are members of the Trump administration, people you elected and put into these positions to get you the truth on this matter, are telling you that he didn't in fact he was not murdered, he did not keep a client list and he did not blackmail powerful figures. That is the thing that they are saying, not I, they are saying this. If you're willing to throw that over and claim they're lying then I'd like to see you present your evidence that they are in fact lying because I know Dan, I don't think that Dan
Starting point is 01:12:02 Bagino is lying to me. I know Cash Patel a little bit, I don't think that Dan Bagino is lying to me. I know Cash Patel a little bit. I don't think Cash Patel is lying to me. It's time to stop right there, back at him, five seconds. What did Patel say on Rogan a few months ago? He goes, listen Joe, you know me, you can trust me. Alex should really listen to these clips before he plays them, because this is another example of one that doesn't say what he claims it does.
Starting point is 01:12:24 It's hard not to see that as a sign of either deception or incompetence. And I hate to say that Ben is making a good point, but he's right in that clip. The FBI has said that they don't have the evidence and it's not the FBI you can just pretend is run by the evil Democrats because Trump is in charge and he picked all of the leaders. You're welcome to disagree with their conclusion, but Ben wants to know what your evidence is to disagree with it, and also speculation doesn't count as evidence. I don't know Ben's track record on this issue, so I don't have any idea if he's consistent here with what he's always said, and I do think that he's full of shit generally, but
Starting point is 01:13:00 that clip isn't him telling everyone to stop questioning the Epstein stuff. He's saying that you shouldn't confuse having questions with finding answers. Basically Ben is saying that it's all the deep state type arguments, they're becoming implausible since Trump's guys pretty much run all of the government now. The team you wanted is in charge, so you can take their word on this that they have done the investigation, or you can decide that they're lying. Ben seems to largely have taken their word for it, whereas Alex desperately doesn't want to do that because it's not viable for his brand, but he's also not willing to like deal with what Ben is actually saying, which is like, hey, you have a choice now. Yeah, exactly. No, Ben is presenting
Starting point is 01:13:43 the correct choice and he's making the wrong choice, but he is presenting the choice Well, they're both wrong choices, but Ben is more or less saying the power has made its choice They are saying there is no evidence here I mean if you want to maintain proximity to power this is the choice that you need to make yep If you want to maintain these conspiracies, the burden of proof is now on you to argue that the FBI is lying and that will probably drive you away
Starting point is 01:14:11 from proximity to power. That's how it works. That's what do you, that's. There's no other way to put it. This is, I mean, it's, it's, what else do you say? These are the guys you elected. If you don't like their answer, it's your fault. How do you not understand that?
Starting point is 01:14:28 I already chose. I knew they were lying about all kinds of shit. Why would I give a fuck now? I think that Ben is essentially making an argument about the dynamics of this media space. That you have these paths in front of you and you can choose your path. I've chosen this.
Starting point is 01:14:49 Yep. And Alex clearly is wanting to choose the other and he's gonna drive himself away from Trump. You're too far down the path, buddy. In for a penny, in for a pound. Yep. Yep. So I think that Alex really wants another story to cover Yeah, because we need to get away from
Starting point is 01:15:11 All this absolutely nice. It's too much. Yeah Well now this report USAID quietly sent thousands of viruses to the infamous Wuhan lab sent thousands of viruses to the infamous Wuhan lab. Yeah, we're all taught USAID feeds starving people. That's less than 1% of what they do. Doesn't even stand for aid. The US Agency for International Development
Starting point is 01:15:40 reportedly shipped thousands of viruses to a Chinese military link bio lab in Wuhan. U.S. aid sent 11,000 viral samples to the Wuhan Institute of Virology over the course of a 10-year program under Obama, despite not having any formal agreement with the laboratory, according to documents obtained by the Daily Caller. The viruses were reportedly sent from China's Yunnan province to Wuhan, the infamous epicenter of the Chinese coronavirus pandemic. So this isn't news. It's just slightly repackaging things we already knew in
Starting point is 01:16:19 order to create some kind of exciting conspiracy headline in hopes of distracting from the Epstein story. This goes back to a Daily Caller story that covers a $210 million contract USAID had with the University of California Davis, who ran a program called PREDICT. Part of the funding involved transportation of samples collected in China to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, which makes sense. The big complaint I can see in the Daily Caller article seems to be that it wasn't a US run lab
Starting point is 01:16:47 and it should have been because it was US funding. And I guess there's a small resource allocation issue people can argue about, but it doesn't prove that this is where COVID came from. I mean- It's grasping at straws and this feels fucking desperate. I mean, just think about the budget allocation implications of this. Do you not understand? Alex wants it to look like they're shipping in like germs from Germany or something like that for warfare
Starting point is 01:17:12 But it's like this is the closest competent lab to where these samples Totally irregular this happens that suspicious all the time. Yeah all the time. You're just not paying attention to it, right? Yeah, it's it really just feels like Hey, maybe this will work. Well, they people go crazy for kovat conspiracies Maybe we bring that one back there It's you're not going to get past the fact that you yourself have said my guy is a globalist leader now Yeah, it's like this Epstein story puts you a mile underground.
Starting point is 01:17:47 Yeah. And you think like, okay, I can get up a foot with this COVID thing. It's like, it's gonna take you forever to get out of this conspiracy hole. You are not Uma Thurman. No, and another thing that he tries is a, like, hey, they're gonna investigate Comey and them. They gonna they're gonna do Russia gate. They're gonna figure it out
Starting point is 01:18:10 Unfortunately, he has Kyle seraphine on his FBI whistleblowers on Like they're not actually gonna Not only that he's like this is clearly an attempt to distract from the brain or not and not only that he's like this is clearly an attempt to distract from the brain hate seeing this self-harming by the Trump administration but since we talked on Monday the consensus is formed that this is some type of backroom deal with the facade mi6 the US and it is too damaging to come out and so now we're supposed to just stop talking about it well then they should have just stopped talking about it. Well, then they should
Starting point is 01:18:46 have just stopped talking about it instead of making it 1000 times worse. This is turning into the mother of all strisand effects. You sent me some videos. To go to as well. We also have reportedly a criminal investigation now
Starting point is 01:18:57 launched into coming Brendan and Clapper. During the fire storm. I was told four months ago and reported that there was criminal investigations going on by someone just apartment and and so I Don't think it's a total lie that they just did it to cover up the last story But I think they reported it to change the subject. What do you know? You got the floor call servant? Yeah, well first of all
Starting point is 01:19:17 It looks like a complete cover-up with the with the announcement of investigations the fact that Fox News is gonna go out there And push their piece and you're hearing them say that they're going to investigate Comey and they're going to go after Brennan and all this kind of nonsense. You know, unless they have a capital offense, which is basically not a realistic possibility, these are not prosecutable investigations. Alex, you know this too. When they want to go out there and do an investigation, they investigate you. Period. They don't tell you, they don't warn you, there's no press release, there's no like, leak it to Fox News Digital so that they can go out and have a, you know, favorable headline when you're having an event.
Starting point is 01:19:55 No, you learn two years later, because Google gives you a notice that you've been under investigation, or you have to respond to a grand jury. That's right. This is exactly correct. There's an indictment. You get subpoenaed and you're made aware of it. Or you're arrested. That's how you find out that there was an investigation. This sort of messaging saying we're going to be doing it,
Starting point is 01:20:15 and I love it when they always use the word probe for some reason. Probe seems to be like a Fox News word. But when you want to go out and announce that you're going to investigate investigate that is 100% deflection Trying to get attention on something else Please follow the shiny object follow the squirrel follow the laser pointer take your pick. It's the it's not real. Ah shit well That's gonna be that makes it more difficult for me to Distract people with the shiny object you as in Wow
Starting point is 01:20:42 Yeah, wait it. I mean I suppose credit where it's due, that was well dismantled. That was well taken apart. And I think it's also like, it really deepens the conspiracy that Trump is involved in. Yes. Because now he's trying to manipulate the media
Starting point is 01:20:59 through fake investigations and things in order to distract people. He's using the FBI to threaten journalists to stop covering it Yep, like this is a crazy Story all Active steps you take are going to lead towards destruction. Mm-hmm Yep, whether or not a passive Non-step will avoid destruction remains to be seen.
Starting point is 01:21:26 Probably not. Anything you do only makes things more suspicious because there's only one thing that you can do to make things not be suspicious, which is not be guilty of the thing, and we can't do that. Yeah, the explanations that you need to try to use to explain the situation are things that innocent people would never do. Why? What are you talking about?
Starting point is 01:21:50 They're crazy. They're insane. They're an insane thing to do. You could have gone to like the Waffle House. It would have been fine. So I think that Kyle might be a fella who's getting in on the Alex will let anyone on or maybe he takes payments for a playman. Hey, hey, it's possible a playola if you will. And I think that we get a little bit of them not being quite on the same page here. And you said it to me
Starting point is 01:22:18 this morning, I told my wife because it was too funny. You know, they tried to release this thing like a fart in church and they didn't get away with it because it squeaked really, really loudly. And so the strizing effect you're pointing out is obviously the case. It's totally damaging. This might be the, as Tucker said, it might be one of the worst rollouts of anything.
Starting point is 01:22:36 I think we've got a clip of Mike Howell talking about, this is a class on how to not do it. Now let's go to that clip of this is a class on how to not do it. Here is the Mike Hal clip. You guys gave me that clip. You had it came in and gave it to me. Well, maybe we don't have it then.
Starting point is 01:22:54 So that has shactor energy that has like this guy has his own agenda. He's brought his clips that he's going to Alex play and we're gonna do this thing and Alex is like didn't work. He's enthusiasm miserable. His enthusiasm is infectious Brought me the clip, but I don't know. I don't know clip is here not here. You can play it whatever who cares You know, you you don't believe me Who cares? You don't you you don't believe me I'm alone It does it does feel like he just wishes he could fade into the background Do I need to be here for this you paid for it? Yeah
Starting point is 01:23:32 I I will I'm happy to chime in when things are running smoothly, but you didn't get us a fucking clip absolutely And so Alex seems to get a little bit more annoyed by this With me on this cuz you know you just came on I love our guests But you'll send us a bunch of articles and documents two minutes before I'm not mad the crew all the clips They just don't know who Mike Howell is and so I'm like So just look here with me Kyle. Let's go over the clips. You sent which is we'll produce here on air right now Oh red shot. This is my house So these are the things you sent us it's all very Is this my house? Let's talk about the other ones
Starting point is 01:24:10 So these are the things you sent us it's all very well actually let me let me tell you that that one you just picked Up if you go back to the to the Washington Times piece This is just just as inside kind of information here. The piece is written It's not as important what it says that you know FBI launches criminal investigation. It's a scoop What's important is the source and the actual writer? So if you'll notice the byline there, it's Carrie Pickett. Carrie Pickett is an I'll call her an acquaintance of mine. And she's the person that introduced me to Dan Bongino. So I know she knows Dan well enough because they used to they used to talk in the background and they connected the two
Starting point is 01:24:38 of us together in the first place. So Carrie Pickett is a soft and friendly source for the FBI to leak this information. And again, I just told you, that information is obviously bogus because you can't go after Comey for anything that's not capital, and there's no indication there's a capital crime there. So, just that's the reason why that story is relevant. The headline is almost all of it, and the byline is actually as important as anything else.
Starting point is 01:25:00 But that Mike Howell, in his own words, you know, he's an attorney, he's been around DC for a long time, he's worked in and out of government and in oversight now It's it's a it's a useful clip if you guys want to hear people in his own words. Oh Well, we do have the Mike how clip from the oversight project again tell us who this guy is Who Mike is yeah sure. Yeah, sure. Yeah, sure fucking cares Whatever you want. I don't care Alex is pissed. Yeah, that is a angry man, but I In interest of fairness once they actually do play the clip Alex gets pretty excited because it it works for him But the process of this is torturous
Starting point is 01:25:43 Oh my god. So yeah, that has all the fingerprints of a guy who's Just sort of renting out time on his show. Yeah, this Kyle Seraphine gets to decide what we're doing. Yep We usually smooth a little bit of this out beforehand, but he didn't number the clips or something So yeah, it's a little clunky. Yeah. And he's coming in confident with all of his conclusions made. He's not coming in like, Alex, let's kind of work out some ideas. He's like, we know this is bullshit. Now, ah, come on, man. Yep. And so Kyle actually does have a theory about how Trump could be
Starting point is 01:26:22 have made this catastrophic error that somehow doesn't involve Trump wanting to cover the story. Okay, I'm listening. It's not great. So why do they want it closed? I think that there's also a secondary piece of it. I think they want to close because they don't want to mess with it. And I think it's ugly.
Starting point is 01:26:43 And there's a decent chance that Trump, you know, you and I may differ in opinion on this one You think that he's using using the tool if that's the case That's the worst capability ever dancing with the devil literally using the devil's tools um to to control evil people is a um You don't bet on on the good guys winning on that So I I i'm kind of hopeful that that's not the case and I don't really deal in hope What I do think is that these people were advised by the worst possible actors inside D. O. J. And also the same thing in the FBI, like most of
Starting point is 01:27:11 the middle management there are looking for a Dan Bongino to fail, looking for a cash Patel to fail. And you're saying the plumber is really set up Nixon. I think you might be right. I'm I'm 50 50 now. I think these people are setting him up to fail. They said this is not as big a deal as you think like all we got to do is talk about it You could see this being down briefed Alex if you came in and I showed it this morning. Hey President Trump by the way, we shut down the F-TEEN investigation There was nothing there and he's out there looking at World War three in Russia and Ukraine and he's looking at a peace deal That happens in you know, Iran and Israel. He's got a million things
Starting point is 01:27:40 He's trying to figure out whether or not he's gonna have the same Federal Reserve chairman and so on, you know He's got 20 things up there that are all high level importance. Someone tells him we shut down the FD thing, we didn't find anything there. He goes, great, no big deal. They didn't go, hey, sir, by the way, the people who voted for you that that really wanted that executive order are going to lose their ever loving minds if you say that an elite pedophile was able to get away with it and that we are proving that there is a second system of justice in America, that the rich and the elite and the powerful and the corrupt
Starting point is 01:28:05 Can get away hurting babies and nobody cares Yeah, if you told him that he might be like holy crap like you better take another look at this before I go talk about it Do you think that's what they did? I think they slow played it they under briefed it and then he goes out there and he actually probably was surprised that people were Asking about it because you know he's not on social media the way that that guys like you and I are he's just not Yeah, very well said well. Yeah, Trump's just not on Twitter enough. You know he doesn't get it He doesn't understand how seriously people take this and how much of a betrayal This will be if only he was on Twitter more. He would never have acted like that. He would have understood okay, so
Starting point is 01:28:44 essentially he's boiling this entire thing down to like some middle managers in the FBI were sitting around in a conference room and one guy was like, 50 bucks Trump says anything we tell him to say. And the other guy goes, I'll take that bet. Let's say that Epstein didn't do it. And they're like, no way will anybody, no way is he gonna say that. You'd have to be an idiot to say that. That would take our bosses down. Let's do it. Let's try, let's see what happens.
Starting point is 01:29:12 All right. Gentlemen's wager. Is that how that works, huh? I guess, I guess it could. Yeah, middle management is really sinking everybody on this one. Traditionally. Which is convenient because Trump has appointed all of the people
Starting point is 01:29:26 Yeah, it's always nice whenever the nameless people are at fault who we can never find or punish or face consequence That deeper state. Oh those states. They just keep going down fuck. I do love The idea that a bunch of Twitter addicts are like, Trump's not on Twitter enough. That's why he fucked this up. I mean, yeah, he doesn't have the temperature of the people. What have we been doing for the past 10 years? I don't believe that this excuse can work because Trump would have to be so like, you know, they talk about how like, Biden can't talk and he doesn't know what
Starting point is 01:30:06 reality is. Yeah. Trump would have to be far beyond that to not understand how important this is to his base. I mean, you know, okay, so sometimes if you think or say something like, only an idiot would do that, then that is also a retroactive statement through which you should view the rest of the things that he has done. So if only an idiot would do that, perhaps the other things he has done were done by
Starting point is 01:30:34 an idiot. And if they were done by an idiot, perhaps I in fact am the idiot. Well, even beyond like being done by an idiot, like this action that Trump is making does not change my opinion on Trump. This is in line with about the character that I have considered him to have for a long time. And so I don't really need to update all that much. I think maybe it's a little more brazen than I would have expected. A little bit more reckless.
Starting point is 01:31:04 But it's in line with his character. For Alex, it's not. No, it can't be. Yeah. This cannot be. Yeah. So that's why he needs the demon. Yeah. But sometimes when you say only an idiot would do that, you're right. There's no going back. You know how you become an idiot. How? Demon gets in here. You gotta go. Yeah, you gotta go with demon, walk in, clone a robot. Yep. You gotta do it Yep, there's nothing else to do but say that is a different man. Mm-hmm I would even go so far as to say changeling. Let's do changeling. He's a tiny Irish child that came back wrong She that's fine. Yeah, that's fine. There's a million possibilities and they're all crazy Yeah, and Alex just needs to commit to it or else one he's gonna drift into this Nazi territory
Starting point is 01:31:44 Yep And Alex just needs to commit to it or else he's gonna drift into this Nazi territory Yep And then still fuck everything up. Think about how much more fun your life is if instead of going like oh, it's Israel's fault You go like maybe aliens made a clone. That's a more fun life Yeah, you can still very clearly signal on like a crypto dog whistle To the neo-nazi Israeli aliens right yeah, you can do that Yeah, but your life is more fun if you just get wacky with it absolutely because it's not going to get more fun any other direction no no there is no direction where you're like whoa this is fun yeah getting closer to reality is gonna suck yeah so we have one last clip here and it's Kyle and Alex talking about how the FBI is being run like
Starting point is 01:32:26 a Twitter account. That Alex says some harsh truths. These are media guys. Patel, Bondi's been around media a lot. She's been on Fox an awful lot. Bongino obviously as well. They're media, which means they're savvy, which means they know they're lying. They know they're trying to spin and they're being run by PR people, which is exactly what a senior FBI supervisor
Starting point is 01:32:46 told me the other day. The FBI is currently being run basically like a social media influencer camp, and they're just getting moved by the Williams and the waves of like the public opinion that they sent out on Twitter. Well, I can give you advice, if they're gonna cover up Epstein, shut up.
Starting point is 01:33:00 I mean, that's not right. Yeah, that would have been the best move. All right, Carl Seraphine, very interesting. All right, Carl. Sarah been very interesting We just Will just move forward. Thanks for talking to us Yeah, you bet. Thanks Alex. All right, let's get Matt Bracken on I apologize for getting him on 14 minutes late, but I had to finish up with that look Here's what's going on my brain
Starting point is 01:33:20 All I can do with viewers and listeners is just tell you what I'm thinking Because when I'm cutting drawing something an issue, I know what I stand for your Second Amendment pro live the or not enough and I think I'm spending a lot of time on it to get messages up to the Trump administration which we know they're watching and the FBI whoever setting you up to do this stuff you need to fire them because you're doing the dumbest stuff I've ever seen him you just saw the Heritage Foundation say this is a really smart club this is the dumbest thing they ever seen that's what I've been saying since Monday. This is some stupid shit. Everybody agrees! Why is this so complicated
Starting point is 01:34:08 when it is obviously simple and they agree with it? Yeah, just about everybody who has an opinion is that they all agree that this is stupid. It starts with, you should have shut up. Every opinion about like where to go or what they did wrong and any specifics it starts with, all of these people go, oh, well, you shouldn't have said anything,
Starting point is 01:34:28 which shouldn't fit within their character whatsoever. No, it's very suspicious for the conspiracy people to be like, they should have covered this up with silence. Absolutely, which suggests you already knew. You definitely already knew. You already knew. So what's stupid is that they're putting what you already knew out in public Yeah, and what's stupid is what Alex is being forced to do. Yeah as an explanation
Starting point is 01:34:54 Yeah, like pretending that they're giving they're getting bad advice and the Trump administration's being set up and all this stuff like that's dumb Yeah, and Alex is forced to do that because the alternative is so much worse. Yeah. And his hand is being forced to do that by them not shutting up. They need to shut up. Yeah. And Trump does not. It seems it seems again, it seems so simple to me. Like any political philosophy that keeps you from saying, yeah, I want pedophiles to be in trouble for that is not a good political philosophy. No, it's a it's a it's building a house on sand.
Starting point is 01:35:34 Yeah, you know, like, oh, what team are you on? Don't care if one of them is a pedophile. I am no longer on that team. And I hope he's no longer on that team. Especially when it's not even just these crimes that are being committed against children. It is also that they are the cornerstone of a blackmail operation that is responsible for literally everything that has ever happened in the world. Every conspiracy traces back to like people being able to maintain their power through this if Alex actually believes in that construct of the world then he can't possibly Be like it's not
Starting point is 01:36:15 Possible no it has to be we have to escape possibility and it's straight towards fantasy Yeah, yep, and that's why this is the stupidest shit ever. It's got it. It's stupid. Yep. You're playing in the wrong sandbox. You're playing in the what's possible sandbox. And you got to play in the anything's possible sandbox. Yep. And that's, I think, a large piece of it is the, like,
Starting point is 01:36:39 the what's possible sandbox is the one that is closer to where power can be. Yeah. Like the crazy nonsense, you're never really going to get close to institutional power. Right. If you're talking about aliens and walk-ins and all this stuff, you're abandoning your ability to ever really be taken seriously by institutions. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:02 And Alex has come close enough to being able to present himself as like, I brief the president. Yeah. And all this that like, he can't let that go. Yeah. He's taken, he's put on the ring. He's put on the one ring. No, everybody has made so many bad decisions to lead us to this point. All of these people agree that we should not be here, and agree that they've made bad decisions, and yet at the same time, all agree to continue doing the same stuff. And that will definitely not be a problem. Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 01:37:35 So we'll see how this deteriorates. I mean, we're a few days away from Trump saying, like, I don't want you losers as my fans. I mean, so. Oh, boy. Wild. Good times. What a world. Yep. So we'll check in on that, but until mean, so. Oh boy. Wild. Good times. What a world.
Starting point is 01:37:46 Yep. So we'll check in on that, but until then, we have a website. Indeed we do. It's knowledgefight.com. Yep. We'll be back, but until then, I'm Neo, I'm Leo, I'm DZX Clark.
Starting point is 01:37:54 I am the mysterious professor. Woo, yeah, woo, yeah, woo. And now here comes the sex robots. Andy and Kansas, you're on the air. Thanks for holding. Hello, Alex. I'm a first time caller. I'm a huge fan.
Starting point is 01:38:08 I love your work.
