Knowledge Fight - #221: October 24, 2018
Episode Date: October 26, 2018Today, Dan and Jordan follow up on the last episode and discuss how Alex Jones' narrative about all of his enemies receiving bombs has evolved, and not in a positive way. It's now a false flag the Dem...ocrats are doing to themselves, so the gents discuss how dangerous an idea this is, and how troubling it is that so much of the right wing media is on board with him about it.

Andy in Kansas. You're on the air. Thanks for holding
So Alex, I'm a first-time caller. I'm a huge fan. I love your work. I love you. Hey everybody. Welcome back to knowledge fight
I'm Dan. I'm Jordan. We're a couple dudes like to sit around drink novelty beverages and talk a little bit about Alex Jones
Indeed. We are Dan. Yeah, Jordan
What the fuck is going on? I can't answer that question for you
I just want to know what the fuck is going on bad interview question
I just want to know what the fuck is going on. I don't know man. I'll say that I don't feel great about our last episode
But it's not our fault. I
Don't feel good about it because we were operating under the context because when we recorded it that the guy who left a bomb in
Soros's mailbox was a isolated incident. Yeah, that would have been fun
I kind of was operating under that assumption certainly because why would you assume something other than the facts that are in front of you?
And so when I posted that episode I was up until about 1 30 or so on Tuesday night
Putting the episode up went to bed woke up in the morning
Boot up the old computer. See how the world is doing
That's the first headline I saw watch out. There's a bomb next to you right now
It's crazy because like I as I talked about on the Tuesday episode like on Monday night
I had trouble sleeping barely slept. I'm like, ah, finally. I'll get some sleep in I sleep
I wake up more bombs. I'm like never sleeping again
It's actually your fault every time we've gone to sleep in the past three days, Dan
Yeah, every time we have gone to sleep
We have woken up to finding out another bomb has been sent somewhere. I refuse to make that connection
But yeah, so there are far wilder accusations being thrown around then the very act of sleep is causing bombings
It's one of those weird things about covering Alex Jones in the present because he's so
Full of shit and the world is so crazy right now
Our episodes of the present are almost instantly dated. I know they're almost instantly not inaccurate
But don't have the full picture just by virtue of how everything changes on a dime on an instant
So we I don't you know, I stand by the things I said
I still believe the stuff I said but also now add in all these other people who have received bombs as opposed to source
And I mean you look at the list of the people it's still all people that Alex Jones screams about all the time
Come on
I don't think that it's unique that these are all people that Alex yells about because the right-wing world has become so Alex
Jones-ified yeah, so
Jones-ified that
I'm just gonna let that sit. I was intentionally did that while you were taking a sip
It's become so much that that all the people are attacking all of these people
So it almost becomes such a blur as to like what could motivate this to the point
We're honestly if the only way I would be convinced that this is Alex Jones
Motivated not Trump Tucker Carlson all that just the whole world of the right motivated is if Brian Stelter got one
Because that is Alex is probably the only person who screams about Brian Stelter all the time really mad at Brian
So yeah, you need some sort of control group situation my new theory. Mm-hmm
Scorsese oh see why else would De Niro get a
Bomb along with everybody else
I'll tell you why this whole thing is just to mask that Scorsese is pissed off that De Niro spent those 20 years in the wilderness
Sure, and fucking meet the clumps movies or whatever it is. He did meet the fuckers. Yeah, exactly look who's fucking now
Look who is fucking now
De Niro yeah, yeah suck it De Niro. Yeah, but also someone I don't want to say suck it too
Is our new donors amazing? Thank you very thrilled to have a couple of new people sign it up with the team

I'm a policy wonk. Bless you Jeff. Thank you very much Jeff
Also, I'd like to say thank you to somebody who came in on a little bit of a higher level and we appreciate it also very much
Oliver, thank you so much. You are now a Tucker crat. I'm a policy wonk
Four stars go home to your mother and tell her you're brilliant someone someone Sodomite sent me a bucket of poop daddy shark
Jar Jar Binks has a Caribbean black accent. He's a loser little little titty, baby
I don't want to hate black people. I renounce Jesus Christ. Thank you Oliver. Thank you very much Oliver
Yeah, it's such a thrill. We appreciate it so much. You Oliver North. I knew you I knew you like that
We make fun of Larry Nichols. That's true. Yeah, that could be that's science
So if you'd like to support the show what we do, we would really appreciate it
You can go to our website knowledge fight comm click that button support the show and we would appreciate it
We have thanks to our donors and the support. We will have our
Documentary breakdown of the Obama deception. Oh, God coming up in the near future. I realized I looked at the vote totals
There's no way for me to justify doing one of the other ones
Yeah, the will of the people is the Obama deception. We must follow through with it
So that will be coming up and also there's a ton of
Website content that will be coming up if we reach that next goal
That is driving me crazy, but for now Jordan. I said at the top of the show
That we didn't have all the information at our disposal when we did our last episode on Wednesday
And unfortunately, I thought well the only responsible thing to do is now that there's more of the story available
As much as it sucks to talk about a present-day episode
I feel like it's our responsibility to jump in and do another present-day episode
To go over what Alex Jones is talking about now. Oh, no, so I tuned in and this is going to be the October 24th episode
So from Wednesday in this first clip. We're gonna be listening to here
Alex is talking to Owen shroyer about the situation
That is unfolded all around us. Oh, no. Yes, they did do a sweep of other houses
Stay there. Let's come back and talk about this live exclusive coverage from the site of what's probably commie bombings
Oh, you know, oh nice that we got out the gate hard. Nice. We've got Owen shroyer on the scene. Oh shit
I fucked up my clips. I actually that was from March 12th of this year during the Austin. Oh
That was those were commie bombings. Oh, I'm sorry. I think everything I totally mixed up with all my clips
I thought that was one of the present-day ones. No, I got it. Okay. I'm sorry. All right
Here we go. This is actually the first clip that we're gonna listen to here from October 24th, 2018
Here we go
And since the globalists are getting ready to carry out. Okay, C2. There's no doubt about it
They're playing the exact same propaganda that led up to what they did. It's not just Alex Jones noticing this today
It is
People in Congress. It's Rush Limbaugh. It's Michael Savage
It's countless other bloggers and talk show hosts and that's the good news
The feds did this in 93. They cooked the bomb train the driver
I'm sorry. I fucked up again. Oh, no, that was from April 20th, 2010. I'm sorry. I completely fucked up again
All right now that's two in a row and I'm I you know what that could be a coincidence
I need three to form a pattern and then I will know whether or not this is going in any direction
Honestly, it was my intention to just do that the entire episode
Like that would be a way that we could escape actually talking about the present, but unfortunately
My archives of clips are much more difficult to go through than I would like to
Like to think so those are just the two that I pulled there to demonstrate like alright whenever he talks about bombings
It kind of goes the same way. It's always false flag stuff. I don't know if I can trust you would you say that now?
So here's the first clip from today. I don't know if I can trust you. This is from October 24th
2018 and it's a little bit of a pre-taped thing that he did with Roger Stone and
You'll see you'll see this sort of vibe. He's putting out here
So I'm sure now that this is one of their big October surprises in the next month or two to stage something or provocateur
Something and blame it on me and Roger Stone concurs. We do not want any violence. We decry it. We stand against it
We're winning politically. It's the left calling for violence of shootings police and beating up Rand Paul everything else
But the fact that they're saying I'm calling for this when I ever said it is chillings
This is an emergency alert to get out ahead of this Roger
Let's be as clear as we possibly can Alex Jones and if the wars do not advocate violence
Against the media or anyone else if there is an attack on any media outlet or any
Reporter it is not countenance by us does not advocate it, but it has to not done by us
It is a false flag with the goal of blaming Alex Jones
How do we get out ahead of this stuff because this is pure scripting what you're about to literally invade a country
We just did I think we just we just did we ate mission accomplice raise that banner up
We did it because you you can hear nothing to worry about you can hear in Roger Stone that he's like a little bit more
He's using legal language. Yeah, he's like we didn't countenance. Yeah
Yeah, I think that might be because he's getting he's getting a lot of Mueller heat
It might be a little bit of the mind of legal actions
Any resemblance to characters living or dead who have previously called for violence towards the media the specific people who were
Bombed right they do not
Represent Alex Jones or Roger Stone despite the fact that on countless
Numbers of times they have called for direct violence towards these people
Well, I mean dot dot dot politically Alex doesn't want violence at all and he never has that's always been his position
That he is just a peaceful man. So let's go back to January 5th 2018
disingenuous fake false
broke back
twisted
a defiler a betrayer
a backstabber
a devil
You will pay. Yeah, you think I don't see your face come
You don't think I don't see you stelta. I see you. You understand me
I know what you think of me and my family. I see you right back. You understand that you understand that stelta
Stelter
You will fall
So, I mean that's a little bit advocating of violence
No, no, it's just claiming that he is a demon and that means that you as a moral person have
No choice, but to uh end the demon. That's not violent. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, no
It's like in the exorcist where the exorcist saw
The demon was like
All right, we need to negotiate calmly and peacefully with you all as you do with demons
Yeah, of course. So that's why I mean that's a little that's a little vague and stuff like that
But I mean here's a clip from march 20th of this year
And that somehow it's bad if he controls the executive in cleans house talk about drop anything
He's in dereliction of duty letting this Clinton cabal run while the justice department. He needs to move on their ass and I mean
Like they're calling for extra judicial. That's illegal once they call
The president can do that with covert action. That's the best thing for the country
So the president should take covert action against his supposed enemies just because I believe that they're saying they're gonna do that to him
It's extra judicial, which is illegal. He should wait until it's legal for him to kill these people. Come on, Dan
Right fair enough, but you get what I'm saying. It's like there's this there's a nonsensical aspect to alex's like I love I
I don't love I never never I am I'm totally against violence and you can never
Say that I have ever encouraged anything of the sort
Hey, Dan anybody who says that I encourage violence. I encourage you to fill your hand
And we'll solve this. I'll beat your ass
So that pre-clap uh pre-taped clip uh with roger stone is very clearly uh preemptive
Damage control because I think that they probably got the sense of like, uh, oh
We better put out a video that we can play in court where we literally say if somebody does something
It is not something we encourage
Yeah, they should really have opened every show with that video since oh, yeah, 1999. Yeah, probably
Yeah, so the other thing too that's really fun here is that uh in that clip that the alex plays right before his show
There's a little bit that he forgot to cut out of it
All right folks, we're gonna be covering all of this people worse than you guys in america right now
Uh, no you you know, I think cnn and the Newark council brought it back more
Yeah, but that's all they want. He don't want a response classical fascist fake leftist coward keep moving
You notice that these cowards all they can do is misrepresent and then they didn't want the answer
He wanted to get a little token for his friends and his miserable eyes and then and then lie about us
That's what they do. Why did you keep that in?
Why didn't he cut that out? So guy just goes over and tells him that he sucks and he's like, yeah, you know
Who I think sucks cnn 15 years ago. I prefer roger stone's response which was chicken shit was no his first response
He's moving are there are there any two people worse than you right now and roger's first response is yeah, you
I think that was I thought that was alex. No, that was roger. I like to keep moving and that was like first off
I'm only one guy, right? So
You gotta you gotta come up with more than two. Yeah, you gotta work a little harder. Yeah, we come back you chicken shit
right i'm i'm just
What how would you how would you literally and then?
Oh, is there anybody worse than you the very people who got bomb sent to them?
You you reinstigated the very violence that you tried to decry a moment before
You bet and that is not going to not be a theme on this show. Oh god. So here's where alex gets to talking about stuff
Actually in studio not in this pre-tape thing
Ladies and gentlemen, we are live broadcasting worldwide with only 13 days out to the 2018 historic elections bombs sent to clinton
obama
CNN evacuated george soros and more
Right on time so they can play the victim
We saw the pr rollout that i was saying use battle rifles and bombs and things on the media
None of it was true. Why would they push that because they were preparing
The ground ladies and gentlemen
And they've got their giant migrant caravans now over 50 000 people being shipped in on un and us funded vehicles
From usaid
Nice pivot and it's in mainstream news what i told you last week that george soros doesn't pay for it
The us taxpayer through the un pays for it. Uh-huh is that what foundations run the operations
Yeah, mainstream news. Yeah, that's all coming up and they're being trucked up
Just like we predicted to slam into the border two days before the election
They'll be more than 200 000 people when they hit that escalated really quick. Yeah, did he say more than
20,000 and then he went with 200,000. I'm saying it's at 50 000 now. Oh, isn't it closer to seven?
The report that I was reading the other day was around there yet. I think I mean is
I've made this point many times alex isn't good with numbers
No, everything is an exaggeration. Everything is more severe than it needs to be a lot of that is really boring that clip is
Yeah, but it's exactly what I expected to find on tuesday's show
And it's interesting to me that it takes him until wednesday to come out with this narrative because it's the obvious narrative
It's exactly what yeah, it's the fox news narrative. It's his knee-jerk reaction
That's what you should have done on tuesday. This story was already rolling on tuesday. Oh, yeah
And if he had come on his show on tuesday and been like, oh someone sent a bomb to soros
It's a false flag. I bet you next they're gonna say that it was clinton clinton's gonna get a bomb too
Then the next day he'd be like, I said this yesterday. I knew yeah, you get even more day out of it
But instead he's lame. Yeah, I don't know what it is like
I know that on our last episode I said that there's no universe
I believe exists that alex didn't know about soros getting a bomb
Did he maybe not know I wonder if maybe maybe he didn't know I think it might be possible
What?
Well, I mean, why how is that possible? Why would he do this show on wednesday instead of tuesday?
I don't know. It makes no sense. It doesn't make any sense
No, unless all of his shows are heavily scripted. They do dress rehearsals
It couldn't like break the script
If that's the case, then I understand why it's like that that show is scheduled for wednesday
We have tuesday script memorized. He's more professional than uh, jimmy foulin then we did. He doesn't break. We did all the blocking
You're doing tuesday's show tuesday. No matter what I don't care about breaking news hit your lines. Yeah, absolutely. It's possible
Um, so in this next clip he uh talks more about why it's a false flag
Ladies and gentlemen, we are live broadcasting worldwide. I am your host alex jones
And we're 13 days out from the mid-term elections and all hell is breaking loose
Obviously coming up. I'm gonna wait
To the second hour, but we've got it all ready and prepared for you
Dozens and dozens of clips and i'm gonna show you the news articles for yourself here in a moment
We're in the last few months. You know, see it for yourself
You have advocated violence exactly
and precisely
How they are preparing the public for the idea that trump and the conservative pro america media
aren't just nazis
They are but that they are terrorist
Who are going to attack the media and attack universities and attack the democratic party
Jerry's out on that one to say that our political actions are illegitimate and that we are going to cause all of this violence
So we need to be shut down
I wouldn't say the last one is true
This is a situation where like you just get into this stupid game that he plays that there's really no way out of without just saying like
I'm out. Yeah, I reject this because
What he's describing is the media covering trump's rhetoric
Alex's rhetoric in such a way that they're saying. Hey, you know in history a lot of times when people acted this way
And demonized a certain population that population ended up getting
Attacked. Yeah, they ended up getting killed or beaten up or marginalized even further than they already were as we have seen them do
Whether it be a minority group or in this case journalists
You know in countries that have slipped away from democratic principles
Largely the first step down that road is demonizing the the media
You saw it with Hugo Chavez. You've seen it throughout eastern europe in tons of countries
The idea of a free press is one of the most dangerous things to autocrats
So like when you have that the media covers it in such a way that says hey everyone be careful about this
This is really not good. Um, and they're saying we're all terrorists. Exactly great, dude
All right fucking fine the stimulus
There's literally no difference between the reality of the media warning about something and alex saying
Oh, they're trying to demonize us the the middle like what makes
What makes both sides do what they do is the same
It's just that one side's reaction is super defensive and full of shit
And there's really nothing you can do about that. No, there's nothing you could do about it because me saying this alex is be like
Oh, you're a fool. Yeah, something like that. You can't see through you get read between the lines
Here's the most obvious reason that these guys know their rhetoric is violent and is
Causing violence. They are defending this. Yep before we know anything about who sent the bombs
You texted me that and I thought that was like such a good distillation of this like all you need to know
Yeah, they know they're at fault. They they didn't even wait for five seconds
And they they might not be at fault for this one. Right. That's the thing. They might be fine
They don't it all part is like it's a minuscule chance, but this might be a false flag
And they're not even giving it a chance. I think the odds I agree minuscule, but I would even
Shrink it from there. Yeah microscopic
But the but the very like the nature of whoever is doing this is certainly not determined at this point
No, like we don't know anything. No, absolutely. It's so like what no right-wing media outlet is at all saying like
Let none of them are even saying let's hold on and find out who's done this before we preemptively defend our own
Terrorism. Yeah, they're say they're admitting by defending it before we know anything that they know they are causing violence
Yeah, yeah, and that it like on our last episode I said that alex is responsible for this in a spiritual sense
Right, and I still do believe that no matter who the person is no matter what they are
Right, I still I still think that alex has helped us get to the point in society in terms of the rhetoric
That's acceptable that sort of thing that that that we can now be where we are
But that is not to say that like I didn't I don't think it would be appropriate for us to be like this
Was a right-wing guy for sure. No, we can we can have like
Hmm looks like it. Yeah, but for us to report that or to advocate for that would be stupid
absolutely and
The fact that the entire right-wing media sphere all the people even people who were like
Formerly had the pretense of like I'm not alex jones. Yeah people like rush limbaugh's people like uh, yeah
Blue Dobbs false flag false flag. Everybody is saying false flag
One person is even entertaining them
None of them have even come out and been like it could just be alone crazy sure
None of them have even given any other
Possibility and I think you're I think you're totally right that that does indicate
A sense of awareness that they must have that's like we got to get in front of this thing
Yeah, because otherwise when the truth comes out, we're fucked. Yeah, and that's a strategy that I think a lot of these people have learned from
Propagandists like alex jones. Yeah, so
That's not good. Now in his next clip alex has been he's made his thesis clear that the the bombings
Or the the attempted bombings of all of these democrats robert deniro
Debbie waserman schultz. Yep, uh, you know, it's just it's it's ballooned
From where it was eric holder a lot of a lot of people getting bombs
Yeah, and and he's he's said that it's it's fake and it is clearly them doing it to themselves because they need sympathy in the
The midterms. Yeah, and he's going to be blamed for and demonized. That's his sort of
baseline narrative and he'll develop it a little bit more later
But in order to make his point, he needs to link it to another bomb
attempted bombing of of recent day
And this is this isn't good. This is a bad connection
He's not going to do the boston one. Obviously the big story at info wars dot com
and news wars dot com
is that
A pipe bomb got mailed yesterday a very small little pipe bomb
Just a little pipe bomb to one of his palatial mansions in new york and they could barely even destroy half of it
Then another similar pipe bomb reportedly got mailed to cnn
One to obama and one of course to the clinton's
Of all there in new york
Not all remember if you go back
About a month ago a gentleman was busted in new york cooking up a he he's put guilty a 200 pound bomb
In his basement to bomb the republicans to cancel the election
He was going to detonate it inside the washington monument mall on the morning of election day
To try to cancel the election because the republicans are going to try to steal the election or cancel it
Now that doesn't make sense. He's a crazy leftist. He's pled guilty. So that's really bad
And here's why
alex is juxtaposing the stories of all of his enemies receiving mail bombs with a story about this guy out of new york
Who had worked on a building a 200 pound bomb to blow up the national mall on election day
He's doing this and claiming that the man was a deranged leftist because doesn't know anything
But this false narrative serves his purposes to present the idea that the soros clinton obama bombs are false flags by the left
The problem is that paul rosenfeld the man who built that bomb was not a leftist
Nor is it any mystery as to what his intentions were in planning to blow up dc
He wasn't he wasn't angry at the republicans as alex is reporting
At least he was no more angry with them than he was at all government from the fbi press release
In august and september 2018 rosenfeld sent letters and text messages to an individual in pennsylvania
These letters and text messages stated that rosenfeld planned to build an explosive device and detonated on november 6th
2018 in the national mall in washington dc
Rosenfeld's stated reason for these acts was to draw attention to his political belief in
Sortition a political theory that advocates for the random selection of government officials. All right. All right
Um, um now we're getting closer to me. You're not interested. I'm getting there. He's not like
It's crazy to build a bomb to do this
But I read some of his like his writing and it's it doesn't come off as crazy as a lot of the manifestos
You end up reading really. I'm very glad that they caught him. How good was he with the bomb? I have no idea
I don't I don't know too much about that. It seems like it'd be hard to build a home brood 200 pound bomb
That's big. That's big. It's hard to build a loaded in a van and you're already texting people your plans
That's not how you loan bombs. It's hard to bake. Why am I giving advice?
It's hard to bake like a 200 pound cake let alone a bomb, you know, it's uh
Stuff
But I mean the cake if I mean obviously you don't want the cake to to kind of sink in the middle
No, no, no, so that's that's far more dangerous. There's a lot of difficulties. Yeah
Yeah, yeah, then the the parts of a bomb
So rosenfeld wasn't a leftist though
He did think the country was going in the wrong direction
The thing is he felt like that for a long time before trump came on the scene
He'd written blog posts years ago called things like the extinction of politics
And others insisting sortition was the only way to go
He opposed the democratic process as a whole and voting
Which is why he chose election day for his planned suicide. He was going to kill himself with the bomb
Yeah, how are you going to what is he got a timer? No, he just got hit that thing with a hammer. Yeah
He wrote quote the logical end of majority rule is monarchy the constant political maneuvering of individuals and factions must inevitably trend towards a winner
Takes all conclusion even today despite all our democratic pretensions in the u.s
One might easily imagine a scenario in which president jeb bush following an act of nuclear terrorism suspends the electoral process
Under the pretext that terrorists have infiltrated the democratic party
A perpetual dynasty of bush leaders would be a plausible outcome
Most people imagine that democracy and monarchy are different animals, but they are actually cousins
He wrote that before it appeared that trump was going to be the next president
He wrote that before jeb asked people to clap and got cucked out of the election
I'm sorry. Did you mean jeb?
Yes, okay, but the thing is that sounds exactly like what alex was saying about jeb bush in the 2016 election
Yeah, pretty much but with slightly better grammar and more developed ideas. Yeah
Also, sortition is a philosophy that is not largely associated with the left. They're far more
I don't think it's associated with many people other than well, you know who it is sort of associated with the famous socialists
No, the anarcho capitalists who are generally now like
They like to hang out with libertarians. Yeah, classical liberals
So, I mean like I'm not saying that sortition is the
The like sole possession of the right or anything like that
But it does have a heavy overlap with people who are anarcho capitalists who aren't left who are not
Liberals and when your philosophy involves the like erosion
intentional erosion or getting rid of the democratic process
You're on a whole different spectrum. Yeah, there's really no left or right on that one
Right, right that there's there isn't even really a vend diagram that includes like what if the short story the lottery
But instead of getting killed they become leader. All right
So alex trying to say that this guy was mad at republicans
And that's why he was going to blow up the national mall is foolish and stupid
He doesn't know anything about the story
But he needs it in order to connect to this other story
Of course to try and reinforce the idea that all of these bombs are clearly
Some sort of a democratic false flag and it super doesn't matter if it's true or not
But I that's one of the things that I don't even matter if it's a real story
He's not going to talk about it again. That's what he does. He talks about it like three times on this episode
That's that's one of the things I care about like if he if he was if he wants to present the idea that all
All these are false flags
shouldn't
Bring up a story to reinforce that belief that he doesn't know anything about and doesn't actually prove his point at all
I want him to do better is what I'm saying. Yeah, and this is just super disappointing. It's it's always
It's always a tell
What bombings are false flags and what bombings are not false flags. I think we'll get into that a little bit
A little bit later. It just seems like statistically
Your right wing bombers can't all be false flags
Don't tell alex that they like I mean
He would start yelling even if there were a ton of left-wing bombers that were false flags
By the right, I still be like, yeah, some of them had to be like for real left-wing bombers
Sure, can't all be false flags. I promise you we'll get into bombing statistics here in a little bit
Okay, all right, but before we do alex has to take umbrage with the media
Oh, somebody should bomb him for painting him in an unfair light. Oh
Let's go back now
to just a few
Weeks ago and a few months ago. Here's two weeks ago
Brett Kavanaugh and the information terrorist trying to reshape america first person they attack is you're truly saying i am a terrorist
That's wired magazine in a huge 30 page article of pure bull
So I found that article
What alex seems to now want to point out is that the headline is actually brett kavanaugh and the information
Terrorists plural
It's about people like jack posobic mike cernovich and all those assholes who are weaponizing information, especially uh in the brett kavanaugh
confirmation process
I was going to say that's a weird article for wired to write if it doesn't have anything to do with uh technology at all
Well, here's a thing from the article quote information terrorism is not a term
I apply lightly
But if you accept the core definition of terrorism as quote the unlawful use of violence and intimidation
Especially against civilians in the pursuit of political aims
Then there are a few few terms more apt to describe what this group has unleashed against their fellow americans
alex has brass balls complaining about wired calling him an information terrorist when his website is called info wars
Oh
So
Information wars hold on so what what are we just going to use the definitions of all words to determine what they mean now dan?
He plays dirty in the information war
Ergo, he's an information terrorist. Oh, do you mean because in the information war?
He intentionally stokes fear in order to get a political result. Oh, yeah some sort of terrorist
What what else is a terrorist now?
So stupid. Are you sure so stupid? They don't call him a terrorist. They discuss this idea of uh information terrorism
It's an interesting concept, but I don't I don't I don't know
I don't know how helpful it is because in that even in that uh that part of the article
Terrorism is defined as the unlawful use of violence
And if you are using that as your definition of terrorism, it's not illegal most of the things alex is doing, you know
So it would need to he's only a sometimes information terrorist
Sure sure sure, but a lot of the stuff that he's doing that's particularly distasteful often doesn't fall under illegal
Uh things, but that's maybe that's a minor squabble, but that's the only thing
That's the only leg alex would have to stand on if he wanted to argue why this article is unfair
Because the rest of it's totally fair
And also it is nowhere near 30 pages. I was about to say there's no way that a wired article is 30 pages long
alex probably no chance alex probably just scrolled down like four times. He's like, oh man
A million pages he gets to the picture of himself. He's like, oh, it's getting good scrolls down a little more
Uh, okay. No more pictures of me carol quickly. Keep writing shut up. Yeah, but
Here's a question
um
So now all of the right wing media is united in calling this a false flag
Maybe not all but all the essentially mostly. Yeah. Yeah. Um, if we apply this to
I don't know
A while back
This would be very similar to all of the right wing media saying las vegas was a false flag
Exactly sandy hook was a false flag exactly the heather hayers death and charlotte spell is a false flag
So all of these things I ask you this question. That's where we're going
Is it legally actionable?
I mean if it's if it's if legally you can say we're gonna sue alex jones for calling sandy hook a false flag
Right, and it turns out that this is not a false flag
I think that the only people who would have uh, like uh, standing to sue him are the people who receive the bombs
And I think that they have better things to do
I really don't if it means they can take down the right wing media
But now that now that the target is not alex jones the target is
Fox news
Yeah, but I also think that you'd have to you'd have to realize like how big of a court case that would be
That would be the next 10 years of your life probably
What else is obama doing? I don't think he wants that money. I don't think he wants that to be his legacy
You know what what the guy who took down the worst propaganda outlet in the american history now?
We see it that way, but you know how ugly it would get you know how ugly it would get so ugly lots of people would die
One of them barack obama
I think I think a lot of them know that um
It would be it would be such an uphill battle
You'd also be end up having to it would end up redefining so many things about uh, about like no downside
Except for if you are one of those people like I wouldn't want to do it. Mm-hmm because I'm broke
But sure other reasons probably I think it would be a real headache. It would be a bummer
Yeah, it would be a bummer. So um, it's next clip alex just reinforces his idea that this is a big old false flag
Now it's not rocket science
That when they start saying jones wants violence against the clintons you do and jones wants violence against soros
And he's gonna get sure he said saying he was a nazi collaborator. Yep. He said that on 60 minutes
He didn't and mpr
Yes, you did me didn't say that clearly they're saying trump's gonna cause violence on the media when they're the ones calling for violence against him
100 to 1 I know you are but what am I calls for violence and carries out violence versus the right
I know you are but what am I?
So I know you are but what am I he's saying there that the left carries out violence against uh,
Folks a hundred to one hundred to one and and so I looked into this a little bit
And I'm gonna read you this here quote an analysis of the global terrorism database by researchers at the university of mariland published
In 2017 shows a sharp increase in the share of attacks by right-wing extremists from six percent in the 2000s to 35
percent in 2010s
Hard to imagine what's caused that wait
Thirty five percent it went that high up. Yep of all domestic terrorist acts are done by right-wing extremists
It's probably the left and our language probably our rhetoric. It's our rhetoric. Also. By the way, what about the left wing?
What do they find in that study? Yeah about that. Let's let's get the numbers. I'm assuming that it has to be
3500 percent quote
Meanwhile the share of attacks by left-wing terrorists and environmental extremists dropped from 64 percent in the 2000s
to 12 percent in the 2010s and a lot of that is because of
Like the 64 percent in the 2000s is a lot of eco terrorism. Yeah, and uh animal rights activism
So there those were the 2016 that study was in 2016 and so they wanted to look into it a little bit further
So with a quote an analysis by courts of the same global terrorism database confirmed that the trend persisted in
2017 where most attacks in the u.s. Were committed by right-wing extremists out of 65 incidents that year 37 were tied to racist
anti-muslim homophobic
anti-semitic fascist anti-government or xenophobic motivations in that same set of data
11 were left-leaning actors from 2017 of the 65 11 were left-leaning actors
And a closer review of the data shows that six of these left-leaning terror attacks were done by animal liberation groups
So that leaves five and then there you know, there's also an environmental one here and there
It's almost nothing right by left-wing groups and that
That is a very narrow picture of the courts as opposed to the rampant increase of just
Spray in the swastika on a synagogue stuff like that
You know like that kind of thing things that things that could be considered terrorism
If you want to go by the legal definition of terrorism, right, right
I I agree and when you expand that picture out, I think you'd find very similar things, but in this case because we're
Dealing with a person leaving bombs all over the place and alex is defensive about it and talking about how the right-wing doesn't do that
Stuff, it's always the left and shit like that. Yeah, I feel like it's important to
Look at this reality
The only way for the right wing to discuss this element of reality is to present all the terrorism that is being done by their side
Is false flags?
There's literally no other way to avoid looking in the mirror and realizing that the statistics are terrifying
They've actually outlawed mirrors globally the number of terrorist attacks has been on a healthy decline since 2014
17 000 or so attacks in 2014 as compared to 11 000 or so in 2017
There's a drop-off going that is very considerable
But in this country that trend is reversed in 2015 there were less than 40 such incidents in 2016 and 2017
The years when trump's rhetoric has shifted the overton window that dictates what sort of things are acceptable public speech
We see that number jump to 64 and 65 in those years respectively
So while the rest of the world is uh, even the middle east the numbers are going down
We see ours going way up and the share of them being right-wing extremists going way up with it
Yeah
So I mean the reality of what alex wants to talk about just isn't true and that's why he has to call all of this false
He has to call all of this fake or else you have to wrestle with the idea that like maybe we're doing this
Maybe this is something that uh, we are responsible for
but if you do that if alex and fox news and
Fucking loo dobs or whoever if they ever actually say maybe what we're doing is
Insighting violence. Mm-hmm. Their ratings are going to go down, right? Isn't that their big issue?
Like the biggest problem they have is not are we are we
Causing the needless deaths of people. It's
Well, look at how popular we are now that we're calling for violence. Yeah, there's a lot of ass covering
There's a lot of like, uh, this is what we do. This is my job. Yeah, and so yeah, of course, of course
I mean, yeah, naturally it's
I mean, it's
It's dehumanization on a mass scale because I mean you look at you look at the numbers and not all of those attacks
Or fatal or anything like that. That's good. Yeah, but there are a number that are and
When when you look at that and you realize the human toll that those numbers represent and you realize like oh
Huh
Maybe maybe we have a hand in that maybe we're not a public good
Yeah, I mean it's tough, but you know the
dollars
I'm so glad that I'm not in the place
Because this is something that I would
I imagine that every like
Human fox news employee has to wrestle with on a daily basis of like
I'm part of the evil here. Yeah, I wonder how many of those are left. Yeah, exactly
Should I like can I in good conscience keep working? I make I make enough money to survive
And if I just quit this job with nothing lined up, I might go broke and have nothing
To fall back on. Yeah, but at the same time, it's probably a moral imperative not to work for fox news
Yeah, it's tough. I don't know. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know how that would work
Or I don't know what that would be like. I don't know what I would do. I do know what I would do
I'd move back to Missouri or something. Yeah. Yeah, I would move in with my parents and kill myself. I guess sure
So, um, Alex has been saying that like I've been predicting this and he has he's been touting that he has
Tons of proof tons of articles to make his own proof. Um, and here is uh, that
show
Alex jones says platform bands are first step in globalist plot to carry out violent false flags. That's august 6th
When we had red alerts about that
Now it's beginning august 4th protest false flag warning a perfect storm for stage deaths to demonize conservatives
It's also a perfect storm for conservatives to bob censorship purge points to imminent false flag violence
Before midterm elections bigger than 9 11 to be blamed on trump and alex jones. That's a mike adams article
Emergency deep state democrats preparing false flag attacks against media big tech to steal election
The next stage of media censorship again is about to be launched august 16
Emergency alert media false flag imminent
alex jones and roger stone issue an emergency warning about the latest media attacks and to cry violence
Media false flag imminent millie weaver august 17th alex jones warns the deep state will bomb federal buildings and blame info wars
We've got that video coming up
And here we are two months later immediately after i put those out
Emergency report trump must take action now to stop false flags
If not, he could fall victim to globalist trick that i predicted they would launch two weeks before the election
We have the clip where i call
Specifically two weeks before they would launch the bomb false flags
Do you have all those clips where you predicted the summer of rage alex?
Do you have all those clips where you predicted that the dollar was about to be
Completely devalued and everyone should buy gold if you say things repeatedly and keep varying up what you're predicting
Eventually something you're gonna have a clip where you're like, haha. I was right. Yeah
So, I mean, yes, he probably did say in like two weeks before the election
But I also guarantee there's a clip there. He says a month before the election
Oh, yeah, I guarantee there's another clip where he says the day of I guarantee there's a clip last year where he says
It's coming. I guarantee there's a clip before 2016 100 where he says there's a false flag coming now
2015 in 2014 are you getting a pattern now the further thing that's really important here is all of those headlines are info wars articles
Oh, they are this isn't proving anything except that he keeps saying this
None of it depicts reality at all
None of it like at no point in any of those articles or in anything that he says does he actually prove
In any way that the media is planning to false flag themselves
He just keeps saying it and then uses those articles that he and his team himself have produced
As evidence that I got it right. I got it right because this happened
right so
The way that he likes to try and present this the argument that he tries to make about this
Is that he the reason that he's able to make these predictions throughout august and and all this is because it's like when you see
commercials for the mcrib
You know that the mcrib is coming back
Okay, because the commercials are telling you that the mcrib is coming back
Right, so he sees the media say that his rhetoric is dangerous and that means to him
I know that that means they're going to false flag themselves to blame me
So he writes all these articles
And then you know when an attack happens
Bing
So, I mean sooner or later a death cult is going to get the end of the world, right?
Well, hold on because that's a little too extreme in this case
His version of it is this idea of like advertising. It's like, you know
McDonald's wants you to buy this thing in the future. So they prepare you to know that it's coming right or whatever, right?
And that's great. That's great. I'm not going to take away from his argument. That's that's super fun
But what I would rather relate it to I would like to talk about alex's actions as opposed to the media
Because personally, I believe the media is pretty accurately warning people about the
consequences of dehumanizing and violent dangerous rhetoric
So when I look at alex's behavior of him consistently saying
The media is going to false flag themselves writing article after article about it
It's less like an advertisement
And what it is is it seems more like the pr department at a company that knows they're about to get caught for something
Yeah, you know, it's like we know we've been littering and polluting for a long time
Right, we're pretty worried that uh, somebody's about to put out a report about it
Right. So what we're going to do is preemptively put a report out about how the watchdog group isn't uh, they're they're not credible
They uh, they have been taking money from uh, interests that want to take us down
Yeah, because then when that report comes out about the polluting that they were actually doing
You have that to fall back on that that that groundwork has been laid before the story comes out and you'd be like
Oh, no, look, we're not responding to this story
We're responding to like we know that they're they're dirty
it's uh, it's a
It's a dad who's who's like killed three people and the cops are getting on to him
But he's like a month out and he's just talking to his kids and he's like
They're gonna say a lot of bad things about your daddy, but let me tell you something. None of it's true
I mean, I did kill those three people, but none of what they say is true
You're gonna hear a lot of things, but you don't believe any of their evidence
You don't believe anything anybody tells you but what daddy says and daddy says i'm innocent
And that's it. Yeah
Whichever example you want to use my my business that's polluting or the murderous dad either way that you want to go with it
One of those is very well, but what it all comes down to and comes back to is exactly what you're saying at the beginning of this
That they know the end result of their actions as well
They know like alex jones wouldn't make all of these posts and make such a big deal
Of talking about how the media is gonna false flag themselves if he didn't have a keen awareness that
Trump's saying that uh the media is the enemy of the american people and me doing demon voices about brian stelter
And talking about how he needs to fall and he wants to kill and rape your family
Yep
He has to know that the natural end result of that when a unhinged person hears those sorts of rhetoric
The natural end result is quite possibly
Someone hurting these people. This is pre-emptive damage control for that. It is not
It's not predictive
No, except for the fact that he's predicting that this will happen. It is also something
I would say akin to like
Trying to make it happen by bringing it into the world like maybe maybe maybe maybe but that
That wants it to happen too. Maybe I don't know. I don't know about that
I'm only halting you a little bit because I think that's too close to alex's predictive program. No, no, no, no
That's not what I meant. I mean more like he knows that it is
so
I'm throwing in this thing of like
Regardless, you know, it is it is damage control pre-emptive pr, right?
But at the same time while he's writing those stories
There has got to be a little part of him that's like and I hope this happens. So I'm right
Oh, yeah, maybe. Yeah, maybe there's a kernel of that in the back of his head
I mean, I know from listening to as much of him as I do. He's never happier than when he gets to say he's right
Yep
So yeah, I think there's probably a psychological piece of it that's like that
But I would stop short of saying like he hopes someone gets hurt. No, no, no, but I think he probably doesn't care if someone gets hurt
Absolutely to make him right. Exactly. So there is something like that
Especially if it's two birds with one stone
Or you know one roger stone 10 birds with one stone so to speak two birds with one roger stone. That's our new shirt. So
Like are there are there any two worse shirts than those?
So I think that we're kind of getting the idea here that
You know, we it's pretty easy to smell through what alex's rhetoric is serving
You know, it's pretty easy and this next clip is even more overt
and now the last piece
13 days out
We'll be finding out that it's a right-wing extremist and blaming on us
And saying he visited info wars. He visited drudge report. He visited
Tucker Carlson. He watched fox news
You can you can see the scripting and boy, we told you jones need to be taken off the air and now why
Why he mailed the bombs or or his his somebody he influenced mail the bombs
And this is just to gauge
And create anxiety that it's the right wing and that hillary and
Soros and obama and cnn are good guys that are just trying to talk about the news and help america
And so we've been resisting them and saying they're globalists and so
We've been saying dirty words like nationalists and other evil stuff. And so now
With the election 13 days away
You know, they're planning bigger events now now that they've named themselves as the victims
And have created the hype of the fear
Now there can be the big event and then they can bust the group or individuals or the or the blown wolf
That's behind it and properly blame all of us. Remember
So you see there that's the that's the next step of the laying the track
He named like tons and tons of things that are I wouldn't say that I know that this person or persons
Who's responsible was inspired by tucker carlson
You know saying alex is spiritually responsible isn't even saying that the person was
Influenced by alex directly necessarily
And but he's he's doing all that because he needs to say all of that in case any of those things are true
Yeah, because then he's like look i told you beforehand. That's what they were gonna say. Yeah, it's all the same shit. It's very boring
Also, there's such a there's such a thing that he he has to do
uh, which is that like
uh
right-wing like
soy boy
This this part of like and the media is trying to portray them all as these good guys who are just trying to report and it's like
No, it doesn't matter if they're good guys not at all. It doesn't matter at all. No, don't bomb people
Yeah, yeah, you know like why can't you just start there? That's a bit that that would be a great
You could just start there like hey, it's a bad idea to bomb people not the media says
It's a bad idea to bomb these guys because they're good
I don't even think in listening to this episode that I heard him say it's bad. You know
Of course, I didn't even realize that. No, no, no, you're right. You're right. He he does they do the disclaimer
But that doesn't say that they think it's a bad idea to bomb people. No, they say that they're they're saying it's not on us
It's not our fault that people get bomb. It's not on us
Jesus, yeah
He's fucking idiots. So but what he's doing is trying to like do play this game where he's like, uh, you know
They're trying to get sympathy for themselves trying to make themselves seem like victims and demonizing
Demonizing us. That's the false flag. You know, you got this false flag
And then the next stage of it is when they're going to reveal the person that did it and it's going to be like us
Oh, they're gonna bring out somebody who's wearing an
Locker-up shirt who's who's got a long history of posting on the internet about how all of these
Liberals should die. Which is all fake. Who's who's just so easy to fake that stuff who has a history of domestic abuse
who all all of these things that
We know is just so scripted because they've happened before sure a lot of times and it's a script always, right?
It's a script. That's how we know that it's scripted is because it happens so frequently
It has to be scripted. Otherwise it wouldn't happen frequently, Dan
It's not like similar offenders have similar psychological profiles and patterns. No that people with statistics can track
Yeah, that's all false flags
So I was thinking about this the nature of the false flag stuff and the false flag
Accusations that get made when they get made and one of the things I realized is that there's a real general trend among people to claim
That things that would tend to make them be seen in a realistic way are actually elaborate plots against them
And there's no better example of this than the fallout that happened after the unite the right rally in Charlottesville
Initially the hard-right media figures were totally fine with the rally and supported it as they saw it as an extension of their mission to
Quote protect and stand up for the west sure
Gavin McGinnis had the organizer of the rally Jason Kessler on his show to promote the rally
Alex was firmly in support of the rally
Absolutely people on both sides
But then the reality of the worlds that they helped facilitate became publicly visible
Nazis white supremacists and weird fascists were there sporting their uniforms unashamed in the light of day
Wholeheartedly on Alex and Gavin McGinnis' side
Then Heather Hayer got murdered
Then videos of a group of white men beating the shit out of deandre harris with metal pipes and boards came out
The optics were too obvious
To anyone who was looking at the situation what the reality was except for the president
Things didn't get better when it came out that the rally organizer Jason Kessler was at least a second-degree member of McGinnis' proud boys street gang
Immediately McGinnis went into damage control mode and alleged that Kessler wasn't really a proud boy
And they'd be coming to proud boy meetings under false pretenses false flag
Kessler being a proud boy was a false flag to associate his definitely not white nationalist street gang with street gang style
Violence perpetrated by a group of real white nationalists
Alex would do the same thing having Kessler on his show to try and get him to confess that the whole rally was a setup
And that Kessler was actually a democrat
It didn't work
But Alex got the pivot that he needed to still claim that Kessler wasn't on the up and up with the patriot movement
And thus he too branded the charlottesville tragedy a globalist false flag
The appropriate response to a situation like the one in charlottesville is deep reflection and empathy
Unfortunately for people like Alex and Gavin empathy is weakness and deep reflection leads people to realize that they are the problem
So that's out. So but you realize galease was shot. Yeah
Did did any left-wing media say that it was a false flag perpetrated by
Didn't you see rachel maddow going out and screaming about the
No, no they didn't no they said it was awful
Did they interview that guy and say that he was actually a plant by the republicans?
No, but they did interview. Uh, I believe like uh, the guy who committed the offense
Uh, he interviewed his neighbor and he said, uh, you know, you just you know, seem like a nice guy the standard interview that you
Have with a serial killer's neighbor and Alex has latched onto that is like
See yeah, that's trying to say that he was a good guy great that sort of thing. So there's that version of it
No, no, they didn't end up talking to the the shooter
at that that ballpark and uh being like, uh, hey
You're really working for the coke brothers trying to make liberals look bad. Yeah. Yeah
Anyway, it's all nonsense
But I it is interesting to me that I started to realize and I think I've always kind of known this but the false flag accusation really only comes out
Uh, at least these days because I don't think this was necessarily the motivation behind him being like 9 11 was fake
I think that was just a good business opportunity
But like these days and it's true these days
Well, not his version, but yeah
These days it comes out so much when it's like, okay, this can't be part of what people think about us
Therefore it's a false flag. Yep, because if they believe this about us
We can't continue to operate the way we have been
Yep, we will not be allowed to or we'll be so obviously monsters that we have to deny the reality
And by denying it they reveal themselves to be obviously monsters. No doubt. No doubt
So on the episode that we did, uh about tuesday's episode
We heard alex saying that uh, he is uh death to george soros
The grim reaper come to his door. Yep. Uh, I am death. I am death
And he named several of the people who then the next day would receive bombs
Which was upsetting when I woke up in the morning
It's it's a little bit on the nose a little bit and to the point where I've been looking uh online
Because he also named lord roth child. Yeah, we're checking to see if lord roth child had a bomb
Did this fly onto the radar?
Because that would have been like, oh my god, he's batting a thousand
still for
Proudly claiming that he was right about that too. What do you mean? No that he predicted. No
He's pretending. He didn't say that because the optics of I am death. I am death. And then the people no, that's not good
No, good. He's just pretending. He didn't say it. He's not he shouldn't he be crowing about no, no, no, no
No, he predicted it. It was too much
Oh, yeah, it was relishing it too much in a way that would I think
I think he would feel that it would uh take away from his
Uh credibility. Oh, you think so? Maybe I don't know. All right now
This is crazy to ask you. Are we hanging on to that clip? Maybe
You think that one might be uh, I think that one might be there for a while. It might be an evergreen. Yeah
so
But on this episode now we're which are covering this is the wednesday episode
And now he's actually talking about the situation and man, he's still not being like, uh, cool about it to these people
The articles on info wars dot com steve watson trump is hitler
Excuse me. It's worse than that unhinged democrats and leftist media call
potis fascist dictator
For saying america even exists and that's really all he's saying. No, that's not what he's saying
Was that the headliner? Was he editorialized? That's the upside down
And they're saying we're gonna cause violence and then a pipe bomb shows up at george soros the kingpin
To make him the poor baby and the headline is in all these papers last night today the same headline
Holocaust survivor
He survived the nazis the poor thing
And now he's facing pipe bombs
He worked for the nazis and said it was the best time of his life. Not true
Uh, not true. I'm done with soros. I can't I can't imagine this level of being a shithead
like
I get alex needing to constantly say that soros is a nazi collaborator by taking that 60 minutes interview and other interviews that he's done
Completely and wildly out of context and assert that he uh, you know, he has steve pecanic ontoculum a uden rat and shit like that
You know, of course you got to do these things. It makes sense when you're demonizing your philanthropist enemy
Uh, this is this is a good good strategy. Yeah, I understand that you've got to say, uh, these sorts of things are false flags as like preemptive
Uh damage control for yourself
But I can't understand the level of shithead you have to be to combine the two
Like the day after because on some level alex fucking knows this isn't a false flag
Yeah, he knows damn well. He knows damn well that these people's lives were, uh, at very least threatened
You know, like whether or not these bombs a message was sent a terrorist message
Right, right and you know, I don't know if you've ever had your life threatened
If you ever had someone say they were gonna kill you. Yeah
I I have as well and I knew that it wasn't credible
You know, like I well back when I used to write for my campus paper
I'd have death threats all the time and those were just like I'd be like, yeah
Fuck yourself. Yeah, that's all that sort of thing
I'd write back and try and antagonize them because it was I smoked a lot of weed and I thought it was funny back then
Yeah, but when I worked at a movie theater was a little bit younger
Some guy came in and I had to kick him out because he was acting up like crazy
He said he was gonna come back and kill me
And I knew that he wasn't going to do it
But it shook me on an unbelievable level that I had to leave
I had I like I was like I have to I can't stay and do the rest of my shift
Just pretty unlike me and I you know, I went home
And then I was like peeking out my windows and stuff. It did a real number on me
Now granted that one is that was when I was like 16 17 years old
And these are adults who are much better adjusted than than I was at the time probably right
But anytime a bomb shows up where you are
Not gonna not leave a impression on you now
So when alex gets on air and he's like first of all, this is fake
And it's great because it makes Soros look like a sweet little baby. He's a Nazi Hitler collaborator
It's a good day. It's it's inhuman. It's like it's just it's unfeeling levels of callous cruelty that um
It's pretty it's pretty surprising. I mean, it's not but it's it feels it feels real
Nasty my life was threatened. Uh, I was 18 and uh, I was
Broke so I was hustling but I was actually a really good pool player for a while
All right, so I was hustling pool for a bit to to make money on the side. Sure. Uh, and one night I
got my ass beat
to the tune of like
100 200 bucks
And the way that I was hustling was that I was always playing with a
House cue, right? You'd never bring your own cue if you're actually gonna hustle. Okay. Uh, I didn't know that was the rule
Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So this dude I was like, I don't have this much money on me
Uh, I got to go to my car. Uh, and he was like, okay, man, that's fine. But leave your cue here
So I skipped out on it because of course I'm gonna do that. Right. What are you talking about? What are you gonna sue me?
Fuck off. We're playing pool and I'm not gonna pay you, right? Okay. Um
Dishonorable. Yeah, exactly. I was broke broke back backstabber demon
Um, so then like maybe two years later. I wound up going back to uh, not the same place
But back to the city where I was doing it. I hadn't been there for forever and uh, I was just walking by this this, uh
Like pool table area and this dude fucking was like
Hey, wait a second. Mm-hmm. And I was like, uh, yeah
Uh, because I recognized him
immediately
And he was like, uh
Wait, did you
I think I know you and I
Was like, no, you can't and he was like, can I see your ID?
And I was like, holy shit. And then he went full on like, I'm gonna fucking kill you when you leave this place
Oh, uh, yeah. I live here now. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, so I wound up sneaking out the back and uh, telling a one of the managers
I was like, hey that guy he just said he was gonna try and fucking kill me
So he snuck me out the back and I immediately bailed as fast as I could
Yeah
It's a rough life. Yeah
The the life of a pool hustler. Sure. Sure
I was I was living like tom cruise in the color of money. So that I mean it shakes you
You know, it's never it's never not a good feeling. Uh, wait, it's never a good feeling. Um
And so, you know, I know that Soros doesn't listen to info wars
But the idea of being this cruel to somebody who has just, uh, received a bomb
I find it I find it, uh
Deplorable. Yeah, quite frankly. It's it's not good. Yeah, it's horrible. So anyway, he talks more about Soros
And then he's quarterbacking all this stuff. So he gets a pipe bomb
And then it's like, oh, you don't get a pipe bomb. You get a pipe bomb. You get a pipe bomb. You get a pipe bomb
That one coming for a mile away poor babies poor babies
That helped fund the arab spring and the overthrow of ukraine. What the fuck are you doing? And now
Bombs are there. They're such victims
There are hundreds of cases of declassified false flags. It's the oldest trick in the book
Everybody knows you about movies like and tv shows like house of cards
That's a tv show where they're throwing bricks through each other's window. That's where the oldest tricks in the book
Sure. And so I've predicted it all. It isn't hard to predict
The issue that I have is yes, there are false flags that have happened in history
Saying that doesn't prove that any individual thing is one
No, it proves all of them are just because x does exist doesn't mean all things are x
That is horrible thinking and he doesn't go much further than that in terms of trying to prove this
His arguments are essentially false flags do exist. It's the oldest trick in the book. Therefore. This is a false flag
Right. I saw it coming. I predicted this based on all of these articles that I wrote about this
Which are really just preemptive damage control because I know that someone's gonna fucking attack them eventually
And I don't want the heat
That's all he's got. That's all the evidence that he gives it's
It's super thin
Um, so I want to talk to you a little bit about bombings
Because there's another talking point that alex jones doesn't bring up
But I've seen posted a lot by these shitheads on twitter
About like, of course, it's fake. None of them went off
Of course that like obviously if there was a bombing they would have blown up
And I need to address this because I whether or not alex brings it up in what we're covering
I'm sure he'll bring it up eventually because it's caught fire with the the twitter sphere and this needs to be addressed
There are a few super important points, uh, that you need to know about making bombs
One super easy. They're very very regularly. Don't work. It's very consistent
The process of successfully bombing someone involves so many variables along with factors completely outside of the perpetrator's control
That they're nearly impossible to pull off
Two since the 1970s, there are virtually no left-wing bombings in the united states
Now granted there were a bunch in the 70s. Yeah. Well, again, there's the 70s, Dan
It's a different time but since the hippies had just died and it was the beginning of the rain now since then
It uh, specifically has not been the behavior of the left again
If you exclude environmental terrorism and animal rights activist groups, which I don't believe are necessarily
appropriate to fit under the umbrella of
Left-wing terrorism as alex would like to present. Right. I think that would be disingenuous and unfair
Yeah, it's not like they're bombing to get
A health care, right, you know like they're bombing to bring attention to an issue that nobody is talking about
That would be the equivalent of left-wing terrorism for alex's right-wing terrorism
You can find plenty of lists of bombings and terrorist acts and you'll find that the lists are littered with disrupted plots
And people who made their bombs wrong so they didn't end up detonating
It's the exception not the rule that a bomb actually goes off when someone plans to bomb people
One of the very few large-scale bombings that were successful was the boston bombing
Another was the string of bombings in new york and new jersey between september 17th and 19th 2016
Which left 35 people injured the perpetrator have said bombings was a gun enthusiast who had previously been arrested for stabbing
His brother in the leg after quote the victim and another brother attempted to stop him from assaulting their mother and sister
Left-wing terrorist he spent a few months in jail and later became radicalized by online jihadi materials
Which is said to have been inspirational in his planning of his bombing
Then what you're saying in his past. He has some sort of violence against women right and online radicalization
Then we have the austin situation which terrorized austin for 19 days
In march of this year, I believe
And led to the deaths of three it was done by a 23 year old man whose motivations are still not totally clear
But he was absolutely not a liberal. It wasn't a leftist motivated thing at all
And that was another one that alex had all of his predictions wrong about which was fun
You can go back and listen to those episodes on the list of bombings since 9 11
You'll find a few that are bombings of mosques and specifically targeting muslims
One of them was a man in spokane who intended to bomb the path of a martin luther king day parade
One of them targeted the new york mexican consulate left wing one of them was a bizarre homage to fight club
Zero of them have been carried out by leftists again with the exception of environmental extremists and animal rights extremists
Almost all modern bombing behavior is attributable to isis related terrorism and far right terrorism
This is just how the facts break down
But I think there's a more important thing that you see here and that's the overwhelming majority of bombings do not go
As the bomber planned
It's incredibly hard to make bombs
Then it's even more difficult to deliver them where you want them to be and make them detonate when you want without someone finding them
First exactly. This is why you see so many failed bomb plots through history
And why we so clearly remember the ones that did reach completion because they're the exception to the rule
And they're deeply emotionally scarring to everybody. It's hard to build a bomb. It is that's why it's the it's like
Not the way we do mass killings in america
We do it with guns. Yep. When you look at those statistics, it's even darker. Yeah, which we don't need to get into today necessarily
But yeah, man, it's it's one of those things and it's like so
The idea that none of these things went off is so
Foolish as an argument as to the reality of it because a number of these people had secret service details
They're going to find that sort of thing immediately or george soros is a goddamn billionaire
He has people who are working working there and are going to find these things
And even the play the ones that were left at people's offices
They have security guards who are trained in these sorts of things
So if you if you leave a bomb somewhere where you want it to explode
It's so hard for someone not to find it and for you to get the timing right so it hurts the person that you want
Exactly. It's very difficult. That argument is meaningless. It's surprising
More not that none of the bombs went off
Or yeah, it's surprising more that not like one of the bombs went off and just killed some staffer
Right like that's they none of the people who got bombs were ever really in danger
It was it's the people who work for them which furthers your argument that it's more about a message than anything else
Yeah, um, but we should know that the media chose alex jones preemptively in order to do this
Uh to blame him and make him the patsy and he knows that because
Of one of the anchors at cnn who is not named brian stelter. Okay, they don't go through every news channel
Of the fake news in the country and all say in unison alex jones. I've got chills lester holt said
Yeah, i'm really scared when he said kill us with bombs or kill us with guns and
battle rifles
And jack dorsi goes, I know I know it's terrible, but we're not gonna ban him yet
To make it act like they're not censoring. Oh, they held back so he could go around and do that whole tour of disinformation
A sigh op you know when they're on every channel saying you're saying kill the media
And you and you didn't say it
And they don't have proof you said it that something bad is about to happen. They don't go for broke like that
They don't tell lies that big you say they do all the time unless they're getting ready
You say to attack themselves with bombs and guns
And poison oh and poison. Oh, there's poison now. Oh, yeah, when did poison come into this?
I think he realized ah shit someone might send up an envelope or something. We gotta you know do damage
toss some
Rice in they're saying rice in is coming. Oh
That way whenever somebody does send it
I don't particularly care to parse through lester holt's take on alex jones's battle rifle comment
I initially was more on alex's side about it
And that the context of it wasn't about an offensive sort of thing
That was sort of my angle on it
But I got some emails from listeners informing me that the term battle rifle has a bit of a different connotation than I know about
So i'm gonna leave that alone and respect that I may not understand the whole context as a non gun non military serving person
Right, I don't know. I can't speak to that
But I so I don't want to get mixed up too much. It's someone who does not have a battle rifle
Not gonna not gonna dip my toes. Yeah, i'm gonna i'm gonna pass and allow a listen to others and
Yeah
Listen to their perspective. I don't so I don't I don't really have a take on lester holt's comments
But I'll fine right but what I can tell you is that lester holt's discussion of alex jones's comments came after a number of things
One of them was alex jones and mike sernovich getting on air and starting a contest where they were going to pay people to go on live tv
And yell cnn is isis
It was a formal contest that alex launched promising thousands of dollars to people to equate a news network with a terrorist organization
That we're presumably at war with
A little bit after that brandon greesmer was arrested this january after he made four calls to cnn on january 9th and 10th
In which he made terrorist threats and talked shit about the jews and black people in one call
He said quote. I'm coming to gun you all down. I'm on my way right now to gun the fucking cnn cast down
I'm coming to kill you
He referred to them as fake news and dropped a couple n words for good measure
The president of this country had previously called the fake news media the enemy of the people
He'd frequently attacked cnn at rallies press conferences and on twitter
It's no surprise that lester holt would take something appearing to be a threat seriously seeing as
That's something that's happened quite a bit to him recently. Yeah
So alex refusing to accept that sort of context just saying like oh out of nowhere
Lester holt was like i'm threatening him because i talked about get your battle rifles ready. Yeah, it seems
I mean
The weakest critique we can always have for alex is like being a little unfair
But it's a little unfair to attack uh and say like oh, this is all media scripting of this same thing
It's like you you're not taking into context the things that came before that
Because they make your argument look like shit
I mean it you could describe it as media scripting, but it's the script that the right wing media has written
Yeah, like they've written this whole they've created this whole situation where this is
Going to be a result, but when you say scripting in that sense
I think what you're talking about is inadvertent consequences. Yeah, it's not like because no no
It's not like they wrote the script where at the end of it. They know exactly what's going to happen
It's more like it's more like they have created a sandbox
Where all of these elements are in place
And the only logical endpoint to this sandbox is where we are now
So in this next clip alex brags about how insightful he is
But at the same time the worst thing that he could brag about we have to consider that that lives
In the atmosphere of him being literally wrong about almost everything
And just like I said, how do you know when a new coca-cola flavor is coming out?
Because you see billboards everywhere and there's ads on radio and tv and you go
Oh, there's a new coke coming out or when does mcribb come back?
You don't go to mcdonald's i'm gonna don't you see the stupid mcribb ads mcribb is back for a limited time
You go to mcdonald's
When they come out and they say alex jones says blow up and shoot the media and trump says kill the media
And it's not true
And they've got a history of staging crap and there are a pack of criminals that works with radical islam
You name it and say ms 13 or god's children
You better believe these scumbags in the deep state haven't given up and they don't want america to return
And they don't want our republic back so they're crapping their filthy breaches and they're gonna pull anything
And if we can't see the giant setup to this we're crazy
You are crazy
You are crazy because you see this as a giant setup as opposed to seeing the trends that have been pushed forward by your side
the the the
worst part of all of that is
He's essentially saying it's okay to bomb your enemies
Oh, no, that's another thing that I was going to get into is that like what we're seeing is a normalization of bombing
Yeah, we are seeing literally in front of our eyes a normalization of domestic terrorism. Yeah, that is so crazy
that's
but
How how evil is it for you to watch people get?
Terrorized and then say one it's a false flag that they're perpetrating
And that makes them so evil and such scumbags that it's like what dot dot dot fine to bomb
Cool. It's cool. They have it coming. We're right, right
Like let's imagine a scenario where I know that we're not that important
So it doesn't really matter
But like let's imagine a scenario where someone bombs me and I die something like that. That's how I would oh man
There'd be an internal bomb. Oh, I'd blow you up. So let's imagine something like that happens. All right, sure
I get killed in a bombing. Yeah, let's say. Yeah
Alex Jones
Knows that I demonize him all the time on this show, right, right?
So it would be an easy argument to make that like
He attacked himself to make it look like one of my fans attacked him something like that. Sure
Well, I mean, it's I mean, that's exactly what he's doing. Yeah, right. I'm I'm I'm putting this in like a
local personal human level like
The only difference between that and what we're seeing now is I'm
Discussing a bomb that did go off. Yeah, if any of these let's say
All but one of these bombs didn't go off
But one of them did and killed Debbie Wasserman Schultz
Could he still make this argument? You bet he would
You fucking bet he would and if you would do it with one of them going off
He'd do it with all of them going off. Yep
this is
Like I know that we have talked about for two years on this show
All he does is normalize and excuse white violence
and pretend that white
Violence and terrorism don't exist
But the level that he's going to here is profoundly dangerous and what it implies for the future is so fucked up
Right. It's so scary and
To hammer this point home
Two years ago when we started this podcast, Alex Jones was a crazy person. Right and now
Every single fucking right wing media outlet is saying it's a false flag like Alex is
Thereby normalizing bombing the same way Alex does too. We thought we were out on the middle of the fringe then
We were we were way out there. We were we thought there's no way
We were gonna have to talk about the real world now and it turns out we're is this our fault
No, is this our fault for doing this podcast
Maybe we normalize this language based based on our audience. We literally can't be once Fox news
Listen to our podcast. They were like, hey, see Alex gets away with it
I don't know about that. But yeah, you're right though. Two years ago
It was a very different landscape where Alex was seen as like, whoa
Yeah, he was out there and now he's right in line now. We're all in there. Right. That's absolutely right
It's not it's not that uh, Alex has changed into the g.o.p. Although
He's become much more of a quote basic bitch. Yeah of the right. Yeah
It's that the right has come to him in terms of the craziness right and the uh the overton window shifted to him
I don't think anyone even us could have predicted that never but what in a million years
What it implies is the like literally the most dangerous mentality that is possible because
Anytime now that any attack happens on people on the left
This is going to be the narrative that all of these shitheads on twitter and
Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity, Lou Dobbs
That is going to be something that's going to be a card they can play
Yeah, and when and now that they've now that they've played that card
It seems like they can't go back. Well, it means right can't so it it turns out that it is a right wing bomber, right?
They've already called it a false flag, right?
So they're going to have to continue calling it a false flag
Otherwise, they're going to have to stop what they're doing and that person will have to be a patsy. They'll have to be innocent
Yeah, uh, yeah, the whole thing the entire right wing media now has tied themselves to the false flag narrative
And it's not going backward. Well, but you you understand. I mean like this is the sort of next progression from
Accepting a lot of the conspiracy theory stuff that propped up
As trump was running became much more normal
And then as it got closer to the election it became even more normal than after it just went crazy
But on a on a smaller level you have
The normalization in the right wing media, especially fox news of this idea that antifa and the proud boys
Let's say are the same thing. Yeah, you have this idea where and they're pretending that antifa is some sort of organized
Group that uh with meetings right and a leader and all they want to do is go and beat up christians
Yeah, right. They have that perspective as opposed to it being a loose knit group of unorganized
small
groups of people who go and counter demonstrate against fascists. Yep fascist
Anti fascist and are willing to fight with them as opposed to a lot of other groups who would demonstrate
Against these people
So you have that on that side and then with the proud boys you have a shithead
Cult leader like gavin mcginnis who screams all the time about how he wants violence and thinks that society is too weak
We should kick the shit out of each other
And has a group with a regimented structure where the fourth level of it is you have to beat somebody up or get arrested
For the cause he incentivizes this idea of going and wait, that's really on there
That's the fourth level of the proud boys. It's the fourth uh fourth tier. That's real. Yeah, you have to get into a
Is that illegal?
I guess not
Can't you not do that? No, because he pretends in the same way alex always does it pretends. It's a defensive
Yeah, sure. It's defensive fighting off
But of course what that's going to do is incentivize people picking fights with folks as opposed to there is nothing like that
On the left there isn't a group of people who are like, all right, you get a cool badge if you go pick a fight with these people
What are they?
It's crazy. Holy shit, but because that language of equivalence of
the uh, the proud boys and
Antifa are exactly the same and in fact antifa is worse and they're funded by george soros that sort of language about
What the the broader picture of street fights?
Yeah, or whatever. Yeah is the first step that leads us to make this okay
Nick terrorism, okay
And you know charlottesville president coming out and saying good people on both sides
That really helps that too. It muddies the water of what we're actually talking about
And that even goes back to alex's saying that soros is a nazi collaborator
Yep, because he never defines what nazi collaborator means which makes it so
Evil
Because if he said he is a nazi collaborator and by that I mean when he was a very young boy
He was a part of the jewish council, which was an organization that oh, oh, I should also tell you this
Back then they didn't let jewish kids go to school. And so they had to become a part of this
It wasn't really something he chose to do
Oh, okay, but he was a part of this group and they would go deliver messages to jews around town
And then if the you know, it was the summons and if they uh, you know, they'd give this message to the person
They would end up getting taken away
So young george soros told his dad about these messages
He was told to deliver and his dad said deliver those messages
But you tell everybody that you give that message to that if you show up to that meeting
They are never going to come back you warned them that this is something that is not what it appears to be
so soros as a young boy went around and he delivered those messages and
Warned people as his father did as well saved a number of people from the holocaust from being taken away to camps
And then uh as a boy
After he made that run was like i am not doing this anymore
And so he disappeared and stopped uh stopped going into the jewish council
Meetings that he was made to do because jews weren't allowed to go to school in those days
My favorite part of the paul revere mythology is that he was called a british collaborator the entire time
Remember how when you learned in high school that the person right who tells you that the the evil is coming right to destroy you
That person is actually collaborating with that evil
How could they not be but but you want you understand like if he wanted to have that conversation about like what does collaborator mean
Is that what you mean?
Then that would be the weak like it would take all the power out of his declaration
Like he's a naughty collaborator and by that i have the broadest definition for it. Yeah because you could say that
Yeah as a kid he did make one run of these things but ended up subverting uh the process that he was
Supposed to be a part of so like there's all this stuff and that is the essence of what's going wrong
There's this like deterioration of definition. There's a deterioration of of truth of context of all this stuff just serving
I don't even know defense people playing defense
chaos chaos
Because i mean if you look at that if there's a lot of shitheads on twitter who are super popular who wouldn't be
In any way if they weren't saying the shittiest things
So for them there has to be some sort of a financial
Incentive in having hundreds of thousands of followers, right? No, they don't have a gig otherwise
And neither does alex at this point. I mean with what he said there too is like
Even if it was a false flag
His his argument is that cnn is trying to paint him as a
Oh poor little baby getting bombed right that guy's a nazi collaborator
Which you put those two things together and what he's actually saying is
Why would you care if he got bombed? Oh, no, he's a nazi. Oh, no totally. That's he's a nazi
That should be bombed. That's definitely a piece of it. Yeah, he's a look. He's a nazi collaborator
Why are you even trying to stop him from getting bombed? Why aren't you bombing him yourself?
Why aren't you doing it right? There is a piece of that. Yeah, so um
I have a couple more clips, but that's when you apply logic to it, which we can't we're not legally allowed to do anymore on this show
It's it's uh
Trump outlawed reason and logic along with mirrors. Yeah. Yeah. I um, I
We have a couple more clips, but before we do that. I want to talk a little bit about how um
When I was preparing the episode for today
There were a number of like I didn't want to talk about the present day, of course
I don't want to put people through that
And I think that a lot of the uh, very like I think a lot of the conversation we've been having is is fairly basic
Uh, and I don't think that I'm not saying we're being stupid or anything, but it doesn't really charm me all that much to
reiterate
Um, hey, uh, this is why he talks about false flags all the time. Yeah, this is uh, this is his way of
Like you very eloquently put
Admitting without admitting that he knows something is really bad
Coming and he needs to not be on the hook for it
So I started to wreck my brain and think about like what are other times that we could draw analogs to
And one of them was the boston bombing and listening to that
That was just a waste of an hour unless we did a dedicated episode about that. Yeah. Yeah. It just wasn't yeah, it wasn't right
and so
It's it's hard for me to experience the things we're experiencing together as a country right now without thinking back to april
2010
That month was a month that was full of right-wing insanity and thus when I was planning out this episode
I wanted to go back and see what alex was saying about a couple incidents that stuck out
Imagine my surprise when I didn't find him saying anything and mostly just talking about how oklahoma city was a false flag a bunch
Because april is the anniversary of the bombing. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
so
Some things I did learn though and one of them is that in april 2010
I can confirm for you that alex was pro tea party
So he does end up getting on board with the tea party by april 2010
He was also pro oath keepers who were very closely aligned with the rising tide in the tea party
And that's where april 2010 went in a wild direction
On april 15th 2010 president of the cleveland chapter of the oath keepers. Matthew fairfield was arrested and indicted on 28 explosives charges
25 counts of receiving stolen property and one count of possessing criminal tools when the police searched his home
They found a literal napalm bomb that he had constructed as well as child pornography
From an article on cleveland.com quote a tough
To hander
Jesus yeah quote a retired atf agent said that the discovery of the homemade bomb was particularly troubling because napalm is designed to target people
Of course, uh, this wasn't any kind of isolated event
Quote fairfield was previously convicted and sentenced to two years probation in february for carrying concealed weapons
He strapped a loaded gun to his ankle while attending an event at a country fairgrounds
The napalm bomb is obviously a huge red flag, but this guy also had a bit of an armory going
Quote officers seized a detonator car detonators two m4 assault rifles a 12 gauge pump action shotgun
A 22 caliber bolt action rifle and two semi automatic handguns from the home
He was hunting right this guy. This was a guy who was arrested on 28 explosives charges
And he built a napalm bomb among other bombs generally speaking you do not build bombs for recreation
They're intended to be used a bomb just sitting around is a bomb that is not serving its only purpose
So I went back and listened to episodes around the time of fairfield's arrest and uh, uh, there was an article that came out a couple days
After his arrest so I checked that day too to see if like maybe alex missed the news when it happened
And I expected alex to say it was a false flag and there was attempt to besmirch the good name of the oath keepers
But what I found instead was him not bringing up the story at all radio silence radio silence
And what's difficult for me about that is I had to listen to all of that. Yeah, and I can't prove to you a negative
I can't sit here and play a clip of him not saying that right
I would have to just say go ahead and waste four hours in your life to see that he doesn't and that's
Unsatisfying and I knew that couldn't be an episode but I still want to fucking talk about this
Yeah, I get it
So here was the president of the oath keepers chapter in a city of a population over two million people
Being arrested for building a bomb that was meant to target people with napalm
And alex doesn't talk about it at all
Doesn't come up in the least
That sucks because I kind of wish that alex had claimed it was a false flag mate meant to make the oath keepers look bad
Because then I could have told you all about darin huff the tennessee oath keeper who got arrested on april 30th
2010 for planning an armed takeover of madisonville tennessee's courthouse where he would assert control then put everyone under citizen's arrest
I could tell you about how he had 300 rounds of ammo and an ak-47 as well as a handgun because quote
I've got my 45 because ain't no government official gonna go peacefully
I could tell you about how huff only went to take over that town because they were hosting a trial for a sovereign citizen
Weirdo named walter francis fitz patrick who's being tried for trying to make a citizen's arrest on the foreman of a grand jury
That he had nothing to do with which led to him being charged with inciting a riot and disrupting an official public meeting
I could tell you that huff was under surveillance the entire time
He was traveling from his home in georgia to madisonville because he bragged to a bank employee that he and some militia buddies
Were gonna take over madisonville. I could tell you about how the city of thank god these people are so fucking stupid
I could tell you about how the city of madisonville
Surreptitiously rescheduled fitz patrick's hearing and told courthouse employees to stay home that day
So huff and his militia buddies ended up showing up to an empty courthouse under total surveillance
Jesus and how he got four years in prison. He only got four years in prison
And no one ended up getting hurt. They all you know you get to all you can get him for at that point is like intent
You know what i'm saying?
Yeah, we should really take over a small town
We should really be working on those laws of like hey if you're trying to
Take over a town we're gonna you're can you
It seems like the stakes should be higher and we might see a lot of that in the future. So
It might be good to have a town meeting. Yeah, we might as well
We might start want to start writing some stuff down
I could tell you about countless other very serious, but sometimes a little bit goofy like that last one
Lots that have been planned or carried out by right wing groups in this country
Just because something doesn't go off as planned doesn't mean that it's fake
Which is an important distinction and secondarily there is a ton of oath keeper related right wing
violence
And terrorism that alex just doesn't even talk about he doesn't want doesn't even doesn't even make the effort to say
It's a false flag
So earlier when you were bringing up this idea of like what does he call a false flag and you were suggesting
All of the things that you could pin on the right or false flags often
He just doesn't talk about it
And this one like this dude this initial dude here
This guy, uh, matthew fairfield
Is a one to one parallel here. He was a guy who was making multiple bombs one of them a napalm bomb
I mean
This is the sort of thing that you see
So the I how long is he in prison for
Uh, I don't remember. It's I think it was 16 years
I get it that should be so much longer
I get it mixed up because there was another story about another guy from the oath keepers who may or may not have had a
stolen
A grenade launcher that he claimed. I didn't know it was a grenade launcher. What?
And uh, yeah, he ended up going to prison for uh, raping a seven-year-old
Twist plot twist
God damn these fucking guys. Yeah, what do we got to do?
I don't know. I don't know but alex doesn't talk about it
What happened? It's so you you so that remember that island in hawaii, right?
Molokai. Yeah, the one there's a leper colony. No, no, no the one that was that's underwater now
Oh, can we put them on that the one that's underwater now? Yeah, I feel like housing would be difficult
No, let's just but let it was an island it can be an island again
Because climate change isn't real so we don't need to worry about it. It's very optimistic. Yeah
There we go, I would rather send them to molokai get them on that leper colony
That'd be fine with me because you can't send no one goes there anymore
You can't send them to prison
They're just going to teach other people how to make fucking bombs when I lived in hawaii
It was always so weird to me that there's two islands you can't go to there's molokai
You can't go because it used to be a leper colony, right?
And then you can't go to lanai because it's entirely owned by dole
What? Yep. One of them just owns an island of hawaii. Yep. They just it's all fruit. That's not okay. It's all fruit. Yep
I don't know if or maybe that's okay. Maybe we should have islands that are just fruit
I don't know. I don't know if that's a hundred percent accurate
But that was what like the understanding was growing up there. It's like no one goes to lanai. You can't go there
Don't buy dole
Anyway, yeah, very weird. So all that is to say
I kind of wanted to talk about that stuff even though it's not it's relevant to this episode but not a hundred percent
Alex doesn't talk about things that
are real world damaging to him
He does predictively
prepare
people for
These narratives that are going to be dangerous to him or real world events that he knows are coming
That he can't avoid he could avoid that thing with the oath keeper guy. This one. He can't avoid
No, he knows that the guy that he is the biggest fan of is acting in such a way that it jeopardizes the safety of journalists
And in order to protect himself from the inevitable outcome of this he has to create the false flag narrative. So
The issue is that it's not just this
It's not just about saying that these bombs are fake
There's something much deeper at hand here and this is why everyone needs to be very worried
But when we do the second hour, i'm going to play mike adams predicting it all i'm predicting it all but understand
Here's the big emergency
These are only probing attacks to shut it up and attest the public. Will they buy that soros and hillary and bill and obama and cnr
Poor victims
This is introducing them as the targets. They can whine and moan and predict if trump doesn't stop. You're gonna get us all killed
and then
Enrolls that big-ass truck bomb into cnn center, atlanta
boom
All the execs will be off on a special meeting that day most of cn crew would have never expected they'll get hit
They'll even take out a large group of their top people. Yeah, they're getting ready to hit themselves to hit themselves hard
msnbc abc
They're gonna hit themselves
So it's exactly what you said alex is articulating exactly what you said about the idea of now
If something does happen
That will be what you know, it doesn't matter like he's saying that they're gonna blow up a
cnn which
If that does happen alex now is ready to be like who cares
It's not real. It's all fake. Who gives a shit. This is the globalists
So now all terrorism is on the table man fucking time. I say there's no bottom
I still think there is one and there really isn't no there really isn't there's nowhere else for them to go
But lower than whatever you think the floor is alex is gonna keep going down
He's essentially convinced or seduced all of the right-wing media
To his way of being which is to normalize white violence and white terrorism
To the point now where we have an entire political party and their propaganda organs that are in service of
Man, if any white guys do anything, it's fake
Yeah, so
Yeah, i'm starting to think that the election was about economic issues dammit. Oh, yeah, anxieties economic anxieties
Yeah, I think it was the the midwestern folks just felt like they were left behind
it's hard to
It's hard to say what the motivations were but we can certainly see the effects and
I don't know. I don't want people. I don't want to leave people feeling like a
We're about to see a giant bombing because alex. No because alex has been wrong about so many things in the past
So I don't I don't I don't think I don't think that anybody should take him saying that to be
Like evidence that it's gonna happen
But I would say that alex thinks it's gonna happen
You can clearly see that from that clip. He thinks that
Shit, this is gonna escalate and he knows that because he he knows what his fans are like
That's why he runs away from them on the street. That's why he's
He knows
He doesn't he doesn't want to go into the trump rally because there's too many trump people in there
Yeah, he knows that that's why he yells at a piece of shit and calls it beta outside instead of actually
Engaging and being a part of the thing that he's created
He knows he knows that there are dangerous people on that side
and statistics back that up
And that that there's no reason why he would he would make that prediction and say it's going to be a false flag
If he didn't have some reason to believe this is probably gonna happen and we need damage control. Yeah
Well, I don't think I don't know
Does anybody think that this is where it stops? No, of course not but
Nobody thinks that 10 bombs that don't go off or
Where it ends and especially like I know that we're recording this here on thursday evening
Yeah, christ, we're gonna wake up tomorrow and there's gonna be another fucking bomb
Probably and at press time we can have the the perspective of like no one's been caught
Um, but someone will I mean eventually this case will be solved. It's a sloppy situation. Like the the
I'm sure this isn't a criminal mastermind that we're dealing with. I'm sure there are fingerprints somewhere
And this investigation is going to happen. It's going to like more facts will come out and we'll be able to discuss them more accurately as that happens
but
At the same time if you're the person who did it and you see an entire political party working their ass off in order to present it
As if you weren't doing the thing that you did
I don't know what other message that sends to would be bombers. Yeah, it sends a message of a if you do this
We're going to bat for you
Even if you don't get caught we're gonna do our best to make sure that people think it was this shadowy cabal of definitely not jews
So, I mean the the world that we're entering is super fucked up and dangerous if we don't step up
And the media doesn't step up. I I know
Some people are doing a good job about it. Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying everybody sucks
But people need to step up and talk about it in these terms. They're normalizing terrorism
Yep, it's not a situation of hey, what's this quirky false flag hashtag that's going around
It's not that it is this is intentionally or not the right wing seeking to normalize and make okay
White terrorism now granted. I'm saying that with no idea if the person who's doing this is white
We don't know anything about it. It doesn't matter though
Because if the person is white because they're defending it as though the person was well
There's that but the reasons that I'm putting that piece into the equation is because
Look at the mo and past history of the people who are doing this who are like in the media
There are people like alex jones like tucker carlson like lou dobs like russia limbaugh
These are people who have made careers out of justifying white crimes and minimizing the effect on their victims
These are the people who I mean tucker carlson did fine for himself on crossfire
But he wasn't making nearly the amount of money
He is now being just a lap dog who is justifying white supremacy on a nightly basis
So like I'm saying that they're doing this in an effort to normalize white terrorism
Because of the people in the media who are doing it their behavior is in line with
Past instances of white terrorism. Yeah, not necessarily that the
Perpetrator once they're caught is white right. I just needed to make that clear
Lest it seem like I'm saying that right when I accept there's an entire world out there of possibilities of who this person
or persons are
And it's it's I just imagine like we don't get the opportunity to imagine this because
Alex does not have a writer's room or a plan. No, I already told you it's deeply scripted. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
But I imagine being in that like production meeting before tucker carlson show
And there are a bunch of producers in there all talking about what it is we should say
And the consensus was there even anybody who was like
Maybe we're not
Doing this. Maybe we shouldn't say it's a false plan. I mean it goes back to like what we're talking about employees at fox news
Like I I'm not saying that I'm not saying that's unimaginably cruel
I'm not saying that they all suck and they're all awful or anything like that
But I find it difficult to imagine people there who haven't
Haven't quit already. It's hard for me to imagine that right there. I don't know that's true
But it's very hard to imagine there's a graphic designer who worked on the the pop-ups the on the chai run on the on the whole thing
Like there is somebody doing that shit tucker carlson doesn't record his show live like alex does on a smaller scale
Production meeting on a smaller scale though too alex does has a have a staff
Yeah, and the people who would have maybe been like I don't know about this by natural selection. They're gone
Yeah already like
You know jacari jackson didn't like the trend of things that were going on and he quit
Yeah, I don't know look the the I don't know man. I'm not I'm not trying to be too
Fatalistic or too like hey everyone freak out
But like if we are not more careful about how we allow stories to be told how we allow
The media to behave and I'm not saying like let's put stringent rules on the media
But like people who are writing these stories people who are writing the headlines of these articles need to be
Essentially more careful. They need to be more aware of what's actually going on and what the intention and effect of this right-wing propaganda is
It's incredibly difficult and I do not I am not in any way jealous of their position. I couldn't do it
So I'm not saying
I'm not wagging the finger uh like I could do your job or anything like that
I couldn't but I also didn't go get a journalism degree
So you guys put yourself in this position
Because you studied journalism and now we've made a career out of being journalists
So we the public trust you to know how to do journalism
And we trust you to adapt to the times that we're in and not fall into the traps of these right-wing propagandists
That will lead us all down the road to hell where any attack on anybody on the left is seen as fake
Because that's where we're going
Without I think that's where we are
Well, it'll be much worse. Yeah soon. But that that's where we're going if we don't get the help we need and I say we
I don't mean the left. I mean people
Because it's easy for it to swing the other way too. And I don't think we want that
Anyway, sorry, this is a bummer
Hopefully there will hopefully
That's fair. Can we just boo boo
Terrorism boo. I thought you were booing me. No, I'm not booing you. It might be dessert
But I look I don't have anything
I don't have anything to take the sting off this at all or anything at all
But hopefully there won't be any more bombs and next week the show will be more fun
Dan everyone listens to this show expecting optimism about the future
We have put together a long track record of being very positive about the direction we're going and
respecting everybody's uh, right to an opinion and uh,
What else welcome to everything is good looking on the bright side pot
I am uh, dany frieze over here. We're gonna jb and dany frieze on happy good times. Everything's all right. Welcome to knowledge hug
Yeah
So I don't know it sucks, but next week. Hopefully it'll be better. Anyway, uh, we have a website

Please tell your friends review all that good stuff. Yeah. Yeah. Um, and then yeah, look dude socks socks
I will tell you this uh, I it's really really good
It's a really positive thing that the bomber didn't kill anybody
I know that it's how I ended the last one when there was only one bomb in play
It's now that there's like 10 plus. Yeah, it's great that no one's yet didn't kill anybody and I'll tell you what?
Alex didn't bomb anybody either. No, that's true. No, I'll tell you what he did though. What's that?
He probably technically killed a guy
Andy and Kansas you're on the air. Thanks for holding
So Alex I'm a first-name caller. I'm a huge fan. I love your work. I love you
