Starting point is 00:00:00 I'm sick of them posing as if they're the good guys saying we are the bad guys knowledge fight. Dan and George, knowledge fight. I need money. Andy and Kansas. Andy and Kansas. Andy and Kansas. Andy and Kansas. It's time to pray. Andy and Kansas. You're on the earth. Thanks for holding us. Hello Alex. I'm Mr. Tim Collin. I'm a huge fan. I love your work. Knowledge fight. Knowledge fight. I love you. Hey everybody. Welcome back to Knowledge Fight. I'm Dan. I'm George. We're a couple dudes like sit around, drink novelty beverages and talk a little bit about Alex Jones. Oh, indeed we are Dan. Jordan. Dan Jordan. Let me ask you a quick question. Super Bowl Sunday. Super Bowl Sunday. Super Bowl Sunday. What was the last Super Bowl
Starting point is 00:01:16 party you attended? So fucking excited. It's the one American holy day pumped. Yeah. Yeah, I say happy holidays around Super Bowl time. Overdoing this just because right before we started recording I informed Jordan that I woke up this morning and realized I had no idea that today as we're recording this is the day of the Super Bowl. Yeah, neither of us knew who was I think 2008. Okay. All right. Obama just won election. He was inaugurated a couple of weeks ago. It was the one the Super Bowl when Eli Manning was the quarterback. Anyone anyone? Yeah. Jason Pierre Paul just ran rampant all over the Patriots office. That was but that was probably the last time. All right. I don't know. I might have been with a friend at a bar watching it or something
Starting point is 00:02:06 at some point during the the comedy years certainly here in Chicago. Oh yeah. Sure. Sure. I don't know. I don't I don't care too much now. I'm happy for everyone who does though. Enjoy it. Oh, of course. Have a great time. I wish you the best with and this year. You know, I'm from Missouri. So the chiefs are the team. There you go. Everybody when I was growing up, everyone is Kansas City in Missouri. Yes. Fuck you. I mean, it's in both states. There's Kansas City, Kansas. Yeah, yeah. But the when I was growing up, the the big thing was like Kurt Warner and the sure and sure the Rams. Yeah. That was a one oh that was a two thousand oh one. Yeah. And so I was like, you know, sixteen, seventeen around that time. People were really into into these ramps. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:02:51 man. And great to show on turf. But the real Missouri heads were still chiefs guys. Of course, and gals. Of course. Love the chiefs. Right. And I remember I went to see Wu Tang clan live at the Super Bowl. No, no. At the Blue Note in Columbia, Missouri, I went to go see Wu Tang and how they did it is all of them came out one at a time and then at the end did sure. Sure. Sure. Yeah. Method man was the last to come out by himself and he got on stage in a Rams Jersey. Okay. And he was like, how many old people out here love the Rams and there was like and he just shook his head at the audience, tore off the Rams Jersey. There's a chiefs jersey under a place fucking exploded man knows what he's fucking doing man. Did that big
Starting point is 00:03:38 laugh and got into like Rockwild. Of course, of course place with a comic level. It was the energy in that room was something I still remember to this day. That is a fucking showman. People love the chiefs and I wish them the best in their Super Bowl endeavors. I think they all knew that the Rams were going to move to LA eventually. Probably. I think that was the general vibe of that time. Twenty years ago. Trust them. So anyway, Jordan is by cast right now a lot about Method Man's feelings on Missouri football teams absolute and quite a bit about Alex Jones and I don't know much about both. All right. So today, Jordan, we are still in the present day because I just can't not. I can't not. I can't just can't quit. You just can't quit the present.
Starting point is 00:04:19 Things just keep happening. Things keep like events happen. We were in the middle of just absolute chaos in terms of things that are geopolitically relevant. Yeah. Yeah. So we're going over January 31st 2020. I'm Dan. This is 2020. Damn it. And like so in the surrounding context of this, you have that day will be when the the Senate votes on whether or not to have witnesses in the impeachment trial. Yeah, you've got that's the day of Brexit. Right. Right. Right. You have the coronavirus situation still looming in the minds of propagandist conspiracy theorists and we're going to talk about Wolfgang. How big I still I've missed a couple episodes, but I have not heard him come up not one. What not one word has not been mentioned in the time
Starting point is 00:05:11 that I've been listening. So you know there's just a ton of ton of things and I mean we got the Iowa caucuses on Monday too. Right. So you got just like everything is in play. Yes. So much going on and our coming military dictatorship is going to be great. So I've been like you know listening to other things trying to find episodes that might be interesting to go over, but I just feel like if we don't stick around in the present, we run the risk of missing some things. Yeah. So I have just committed myself to the fact that like we've got to be in the present for a while the foreseeable future and I'm going to do my best to make it fun as we go along. I will say in much the same way we got to hear Alex Jones interview a baby on a recent show.
Starting point is 00:05:58 This episode does include Alex Jones doing one of my favorite big brags. Okay. He's ever done something a little little brag about his past that I cannot believe is true in any way. All right. And it makes me makes me giggle. I'll tell you the only thing I don't believe is him saving a dog's life. I'll tell you that right now. Certainly not. So before we get down to business today, Jordan, we got to take a moment to say thank you to some folks who signed up and are supporting the show. Yay. So first of all, Malcolm Forbes.

Natalie, Matthew, and Becca M. Yes. Thank you very much. You're out there listening and you're thinking, Hey, it's Super Bowl Sunday. I like this show. It's like sport. These gents do and football. No, we do not support football. You cannot.
Starting point is 00:07:59 I'm staunchly against football. We, we, no donations to this show, support football, no donation, support football whatsoever, but now there is even have a TV subscription. It's true, but if you'd like to support the show, you can do that by going to our website, knowledge fight com, clicking the button. That's a sport. The show we would appreciate it be lovely. So Jordan today we start off as Alex starts off. I mean, he's still on the coronavirus stuff. And so here's where he's at on this January 31st. Well, the United Nations is working with the globalist client state of China to standardize worldwide martial law policies. Personally, I think myself and the director general have never seen the scale commitment
Starting point is 00:08:46 of an epidemic response at this level in terms of all of government involvement across all of the different arms of government with a tremendous support being poured into Wuhan and Hubei from the central government with a highly organized emergency management structure. The challenge is great, but the response has been massive. And the Chinese government deserve huge credit for that response and for the transparency in which they have dealt with this case in point in terms of one of the clusters of infection that we're currently working with Germany to investigate. It was the lab in China who contacted Germany to tell them that they had a return case that was positive. So China is not only helping to manage the cases in its own country, but it is actively
Starting point is 00:09:34 And it just goes on. Alex plays that. How is there a bad thing there? I don't know. He turned that into a conspiracy. He's playing that clip to demonstrate like it's something nefarious, but it's nothing close to what he's saying. I recognize the voice he's playing because I happen to watch that conference that he's playing a clip from. Alex is saying that the UN is working with the Chinese government, but this is actually a World Health Organization conference and in fairness. The WHO is a branch of the UN, but this still feels a little bit sloppy for him just back eyes all you anyway. I don't know. I'll give him half credit. Yeah. Okay. Also, of course the World Health Organization is working with China on this outbreak. I don't understand
Starting point is 00:10:11 why is that like some sort of like what does Alex expect them just to be like I will wing it Fuck it. The part that Alex plays there is this World Health Organization representative talking about how quickly the Chinese government recognized the virus, identified it, found its genome, and shared the genome with the rest of the world. So people could identify it if it pops up in their regions of all the things in this whole story. I don't know how information sharing is something that Alex is taking issue with. That seems to be the lead information sharing is one degree of separation away from standardizing global martial law. Dan everybody knows it's wild, but that's like the angle that he's starting this this whole thing off on because it's weak.
Starting point is 00:10:52 Yeah, it's weird that he picked the one thing that everybody is kind of universally praising China for in order to demonize the Chinese. Yeah. Yeah, it's strange. Yeah, that's a little bit weird. So this is just a little bit of like a little nibble and amuse boush at the beginning of the show complaining about the virus. Sure. Sure. Sure. Break standardize global martial law. Alex gets distracted because one of his interns plays a little prank on him, I think there. That's what I was telling folks about coming in here and seeing this incredibly triggering image, but I'm going to restart the show. So what's happened is one of triggering image. Somebody has put up on his big screen a picture of Adam Schiff and Alex cannot stand
Starting point is 00:11:32 the site of Adam Schiff's Christ. So he is sort of losing it a little bit and he like you heard right there. He's like, all right, after after the break, we're just going to restart the show. There. That's what I was telling folks about coming in here and seeing this incredibly triggering image, but I'm going to restart the show next segment. We're going to just disregard this segment as if the segment never even existed. And a lot of that problem is I get in here last minute right before you realize you record show that I'm going to care of business and I got here about 30 seconds late. So I apologize the crew on that, but I'm going to reset here and not just blow up and turn this fricking table over, man, because I'm pissed about what's going
Starting point is 00:12:10 on in this world. And like I said, that son of a bitch Schiff pisses me off and I probably shouldn't even have that up there. But what the hell is wrong with that piece of crap? And how the hell is such a piece of garbage ruling over us? That's a normal response to a bug-eyed pervert child molester like him run in our country. What crap? So I mean like he's just freaking he can't handle the sight of this guy. That seems excessive. I I've done a show about Alex Jones for three years now and I love the man. Yeah, I can handle seeing a picture of him. I think I think the president is one of the most evil people I've ever encountered in my entire life and encounter the president. No, not him personally. I mean coming still stand to see a picture. I
Starting point is 00:13:00 can look at it. Yeah, it's very. It's a very weird thing, but I love that Alex is getting so fucking worked up about seeing this picture and then be like, Hey, this is normal. Yeah, this is just who I am. This is human. I am fucking insane. This is what people do. This is what people do. They see a picture of Adam Schiff and then they really have to go over the top doing a performance of being really furious, except I'm not positive that it is a performance like I think that there is some sort of like real unregulated emotion that he has. Yeah, when he sees people that he doesn't like just this this overarching uncontrollable rage. I seems like he could have used a trigger warning for years. He is railed against it, but it seems like somebody should
Starting point is 00:13:43 have said that. I mean that's what he's asking for. Yeah, it really is. Don't put up images. The trigger may does kind of sound like a safe space for pictures. It does seem otherwise. I'm going to freak out and start yelling and we're going to have to restart the show, which isn't a thing that can be done with live broadcast. No, you can restart it. Okay, just everybody. It's it's like when you're when they introduce evidence that the judge is like disregard that every year, strike that from the record, right? So he this again. I should be clear. This is not part of the show. Okay. This is absolutely. This is before the show starts. This is this is stricken from the record. Okay. The jury may not consider this click. Seriously, I was thinking how much
Starting point is 00:14:20 I hate him the three thirty in the morning. He's just a detestable person and I look, he works for the Democrats at the top. So he doesn't just look like a pedophile. He is one of the Democrats in China. All the tea in China that that guy is a pedophile. I will take that back. If I was casting someone as a pedophile in a movie, there's only one person that on the bill as a top star as a pedophile, you know, if you had a movie about a pedophile that kidnaps kids and keeps them in basements and tortures them and eats them, stelter or shift. Because when you really get down to it, I really feel like this is illegal. The most creeper, demonic, filthy, make your skin crawl pieces of garbage that rape America, rape the truth,
Starting point is 00:15:05 want our children, want our guns and are quarterbacking the psychic gang rape of the planet. I told you I'm gonna reset. I'm gonna come back. This is not a show. You just saw it's a little screw ups in here and chef can't handle it. Can't handle it. Can't handle it. Can't handle it. Boy boy. That is what a baby. We are getting real. We're really getting to the point where it's like somebody needs to confine this man. I really think you can't do that. No, because I think that he's using such. I think I think he's walking a line in terms of defamation, but he keeps on going like psychic gang rape of the country. Yeah, like those are terms that don't mean anything. So that's not actionable. Come on and to say that someone looks like a
Starting point is 00:15:50 pedophile is a judgment. That's not something that is defamatory right, but also Brian stelter. He has called. He did directly call him a pedophile right. He did say he's a pedophile. I think he said he wouldn't be surprised. He did also call him. Yeah. Yeah, it's not good. I don't. I don't know what you'd have to do. They're both public figures, right, right. If it be difficult, right, it would be difficult. I still feel like you can't directly go on the radio and say certainly that Adam Schiff is a pedophile. Great news though. That was not part of the show. That's fair. That's fair. It's a moot point, not part of the show. It's stricken for the record. I don't know if I've ever heard an episode where Alex is like,
Starting point is 00:16:35 all right, this stuff that I'm doing right now. Now doesn't count what you just heard not real. I'm taking a mulligan on this one. I love it. Also, if you're casting a movie, I would say the Brian Stelter and Adam Schiff are both not in the in the running. No, I think they would be perfectly cast though as both Brian Stelter and Adam Schiff in a movie who needed someone to play Brian Stelter. I recommend I would hire Brian Stelter right away stunt cast. So anyway, now we get to the actual show because I wasn't part of the show. All right, Alex comes in and apparently CNN has a problem with white people trying to stop the coronavirus. And CNN says that white people are the problem. I'm not
Starting point is 00:17:23 kidding. It's an m4s.com article with their tweets and reports. CNN is angry that white people are trying to stop the coronavirus spreading. Yes, it's white people's fault. It's white people's fault. So the article and in for is unsurprisingly was written by Paul Joseph Watson, who found a CNN tweet to complain about the tweet is about how the pictures that Trump tweeted out where he was being briefed about the coronavirus situation by a panel of experts was legitimately all white men with one white woman appearing to be the meeting in the back row. The CNN tweet links to an opinion piece on CNN about how striking this image is and how commonplace it's become in Trump's administration to only see white people in positions of authority
Starting point is 00:18:06 or even close to power or official dump. What? No one would anybody see that coming? No one is mad that they were trying to work on the virus situation. It's just an op ed that's pointing out how Trump tweeted this picture along with the caption calling them quote the world's best the best experts anywhere in the world. As the article expresses quote the recent photos of the best experts telegraph the kinds of people the administration deems worthy of holding power or even being in close proximity to it. The article ends quote the visuals that have come to define the Trump administration say something else too. They signal which people in a multiracial half female country Trump values the opinions of mostly white men who are who are mirror images of the
Starting point is 00:18:50 president himself. Paul takes this pretty short op ed on CNN which mirrors points that people have made pretty consistently about Trump's administration going all the way back to day one and this is how he comments on it. This is from the article quote according to CNN the real concern about the coronavirus is not the potential for a global pandemic. It's the fact there are too many white people trying to stop it which is not accurate at all. I'm missing the point intentionally. I think that might be a little off. Yeah. I don't think his analysis is correct. He says later in his piece quote apparently wanting to not appear racist is more important than stopping a rapidly spreading global pandemic which has now reached at least 23 countries. This is yet another example of how
Starting point is 00:19:35 diversity means less white people at the heart of this flagrantly racist premise that people should not be judged on the content of their character but on the color and the people with white skin to be discriminated against you paraphrasing Martin Luther King junior at the end of the sense when you say that diversity just means less white people which I should pull out is a common neo nazi white supremacist talking point. Yeah at the beginning of the sentence you make a very incoherent sort of point. I think his point was Martin Luther King junior would have loved neo nazis like legitimately that diversity means less white people is a gigantic foundational talking point for white supremacist groups that is like when you hear stuff like that flying
Starting point is 00:20:26 around from people they're really showing cards. Yeah anyway that's Paul that's in Paul's article. Yeah. Yeah. In his white nationalist article he quotes Martin Luther King junior which is I think you get five points for that in the right way and quote paraphrase paraphrase five in the same sentence that he's also using neo nazi talking point. Yeah. I think they give him five points for that. I think it's a race. Yeah. In order to drive home his point the people weren't having this kind of bullshit like what CNN was throwing around. Paul posted some response tweets from the people you know like to the people just normal responses. All right. All neo nazis one of them was carpe doctrine course course the people he had three response tweets I believe one was carpe doctrine
Starting point is 00:21:10 another I have no idea who they were and the third one was Gad sad. Gad sad if you don't know is a dude who's mostly notable for being a frequent SJW anti feminist SJW bashing anti feminist guest on Joe Rogan's podcast who got super pissed off when he wasn't included in that Barry Weiss piece about the intellectual dark web. Yeah. I'm not one of them. That's that's well boy. So these are the normal people that are Paul's including responses. Yeah. Okay. To see on our right. These are the these are the general carpe doctrine and said well boy great the peasant tree what is quoting here the people. I think you get you get an idea of where this angle is coming from. Yeah. So that's good good good coverage here. So Alex is really concerned about
Starting point is 00:22:01 trying to take the situations happening in China and apply it emotionally to America. Of course listeners. Yes. And so he gets to trying to do that in this next clip. What will happen if there's something like that here and they try to tell a city shelter in place. No one's there to help you and you can't have any food. Looting and burning would begin within hours. We all know that it would look like devils went Detroit wrapped into the purge for real. Matt Bracken is a great author researcher former Navy SEAL terrorism expert. He's been predicting this for a long time that it's going to break out somewhere in the world like this. We're going to see this type of hysteria. So we're going to talk to him when we come back. So we got Alex saying that like if there was a
Starting point is 00:22:43 situation where there was a quarantine or a lockdown in the United States. He's also adding these weird qualifiers where they're like also you can't have food. Right. Well I mean if that is going to happen you're going to need to buy some food buckets. Sure. Yeah. So otherwise it's going to be looting in fires within minutes. There's a societal breakdown that's going to happen immediately in the United States should anything like this happen. Now as an expert on the topic I'm going to bring in noted weirdo Matt Bracken who's been yelling about a race war and collapse of civilization for years is a guest. He's always been red ice. Yeah like he's a fucking lunatic weirdo. So of course we'll get him in to talk about this public health situation. I read an
Starting point is 00:23:26 article from a researcher who was describing the work he did on basically like what happens in catastrophe. Excuse me. What happens in small size catastrophes and everybody who is poor essentially bands together works together respects everybody around them. It's the rich people who are like if we don't control these poor people they're going to start learning and looting everything in seconds. And they called it elite panic. And that was that was basically he puts that towards so many different catastrophes that have happened and been like see this is how they fucked us because they are so separate from the rest of humanity. They just think we're all subspecies of humans. It's kind of an interesting perspective. I mean like people whose primary
Starting point is 00:24:14 primary function is to survive often would view it as collaborative. Yeah exactly like you and I if we were in an emergency. Let's say we don't know each other probably could do better surviving together than if we fought each other for whatever we need to survive. That's literally how we got to this point. But people who have you know much more to protect or whatever they aren't so interested in the survival. No they're interested in the maintaining of whatever they have exactly after the crisis is over. And if that means hundreds of thousands of people die and they're fine they don't really care as long as they don't have to kill them themselves exactly as then they'd feel bad. They feel terrible. I don't know. I haven't read those things that you're you're
Starting point is 00:24:56 referencing but it seems to make some intuitive sense based on some of the stuff I've seen. Yeah. The term he used was elite panic. I would it's it's really interesting to read and make sense. So Alex gets to talking. I mean he doesn't mention the Iowa caucuses surprise. But I mean you know like he doesn't have a horse on the race really. So he's not is not as interested in that as it were. But he does touch on the the Democratic primary tiny bit and he has a really interesting perspective that I think is self contradictory. OK. Sanders surges Biden plateaus. That's why they're getting ready to go out for Sanders. They already stole the nomination from him a few years ago. Now they're back to do it again the same leftist authoritarian. So that's all coming up.
Starting point is 00:25:40 Here's where Alex is going to run into trouble with his entire premise. Sanders is also supposed to be a leftist authoritarian. Yes. In the N4's universe. So now you have the leftist authoritarian DNC Democratic establishment who's trying to screw over Bernie Sanders for some reason. Although he is also a leftist authoritarian. He now has to explain why that's the case. There's a skism between the leftist authoritarian. But why is it the case that the Democratic establishment which is really just the globalists who are trying to push socialism in order to lead to communism and then authoritarianism and then rounding up Alex and his friends. Right. If that is their goal why would they screw over a Democratic socialist who's
Starting point is 00:26:23 running for president. It doesn't make sense. Why would they if they're trying to usher in a socialist dystopia. This is their only shot. Why would they go after the only socialist in the fucking race who happens to be incredibly popular. Yeah. Why like he he it doesn't make sense and he doesn't really spend any time trying to break it down. It's because he's established in the past this anti DNC anti Democratic establishment talking point in this narrative that they screwed over Sanders in 2016. Yeah. It's already in the N4 Wars canon in terms of talking points in terms of things the audience believes and accepts. And so because of that he's trying to go back to the well for that right not recognizing that it makes no sense right. It is and he'll never have to
Starting point is 00:27:12 explain it. It is interesting to me that the right has kind of accidentally made Sanders the only candidate that the hard right would find palatable on the left. I'll see baby by accidentally yeah by praising him so much in the last election right. They can't then like you because you can always just pull up a clip where they're like he stole. They were stealing it because he has good ideas and all that right. And it's like they were trying to mask the outright anti Hillary stuff that they were perpetuating by praising Sanders right in the 2016 primary and that would optically come back to hurt them but it doesn't matter hypocrisy doesn't matter. He was back. I didn't mean that true or you know who cares. I'm just saying that as a general as a general
Starting point is 00:27:55 sense of priming people right. Everybody was primed to hate Hillary Clinton and they accidentally primed them to be far more apathetic to Sanders on the right. Yeah, perhaps yeah. It's an interesting yeah. I don't know if it's true or applicable at all. I'm not sure either. So anyway, Alex is selling stuff that'll help you in an emergency like the one that he is yelling about in the coronavirus surprise and you know he's got he's got his his items. He's also got food. He's got food. Okay. He's also got masks to help you. You know, we had thousands of masks anti viral mask and others. We always sell something people need in their emergency kits. We left it at sales price sold out in one day last week. We could have made them cost you 10 times more than Amazon
Starting point is 00:28:44 selling single mask for like a hundred dollars. We didn't do that because I'm an opportunist from everything I could tell Amazon is not price gouging surgical masks. Are you are you sure? I just checked and there's one. You can get a 50 pack for 1799. There's another brand with a 125 pack for 89 75. I have no idea what Alex is talking about, but I assume he's just imagining that Amazon jacked up their prices to gouge people and that he's the noble hero because he didn't do the thing that Amazon also didn't do. I imagine that it's possible that some resellers on Amazon might have gouged prices, but I see no evidence of that when I was looking over things. Did you try and buy one individual mask though? Oh, see what's interesting though is that even if they
Starting point is 00:29:28 did do that, the structure of Amazon almost guarantees that their gouging strategy wouldn't work. The only way gouging works is that there's a scarcity of options. You need to be selling something that people can't easily get from someone else, but the way the Amazon marketplace works assures that there will almost always be someone else selling the thing you're trying to gouge the price of, which will likely lead to no one buying your price inflated shit to begin with. It almost has a built in safety from that. It doesn't always work, but it's fairly effective. Amazon was criticized after Hurricane Irma in 2017 when things like bottled water were posted with very high prices. There were clear instances of price gouging. This was not Amazon's doing,
Starting point is 00:30:12 it was the work of third party vendors who use Amazon to sell their items. In response to this, Amazon took action to be more proactive against vendors who engage in these sorts of practices, but honestly, given Alex's alleged political philosophy, he should not have a problem with price gouging specifically on Amazon. For him to be against price gouging on Amazon, here's what he has to believe. You have a business that sells a product. They want to have access to more potential buyers, so they use a platform like Amazon to cast a wide net. It's basically like an advertising way. For Alex to believe that price gouging is wrong, he has to believe that it's appropriate for the platform, Amazon, to be able to dictate the price at which this business
Starting point is 00:30:56 is able to sell its own product. That's nowhere near a free market position. The libertarian position, generally speaking, is very pro price gouging. To give you some idea of their take on it, the Mies Institute published a piece in 2017 right after Irma titled quote, there's nothing moral about opposing price gouging with price gouging in quotes, as if to imply it's silly to think it's a real thing. There was definitely more than one article published by the Mies Institute defending price gouging in September 2017, which I think is really awesome. They're great. They're great people. I was done with libertarians after I heard their argument for why blackmail is fine. It's great. You have a choice. It's a free market.
Starting point is 00:31:40 You can choose to be blackmailed or not. Right. Like, oh, okay. Well, then we're done. This article argues that anti gouging rules disrupt the natural process of supply and demand. And it's actually immoral to levy fines or jail time on someone for quotes selling their own property at whatever price they want. I'm not a moral. You're a moral. Alex Jones for years has pretended to be a libertarian and he fetishizes the imaginary free market, but he fails to understand like even the basic aspects of this belief system he claims to have. I think that's probably a wise decision because if he actually believed the shit he pretends to, he'd have to openly denounce the civil rights act, support child labor. And if he follows the Mies school, he'd have to believe
Starting point is 00:32:23 that quote, a parent does not have the right to aggress against his child, but also that the parents should not have a legal obligation to feed, clothe or educate his children. Right. So such obligations would entail positive acts coerced upon the parent and depriving the rights, the parent of his rights. The parent therefore may not murder or mutilate his child, but the law properly outlaws, you know, a parent from doing so. But the parent should have the legal right to not feed the child, right, to allow it to die. Right. That is directly from the institutes right up on children and rights. Yeah, I think I think that's a I let's just get rid of libertarian shit baby. Let's just get rid of libertarian and say they're fascist, but weirdos
Starting point is 00:33:09 like they're not. They're not the mainstream fascist. They're just weird passive fascist. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Alex took on the label of libertarian never really considering the completely fucked up things that are entailed by implying its primary beliefs to real world situations. And in that sense, he's never really been a libertarian. He's been a libertarian in the same way that that guy you knew in college, you liked weed too much to be on the right, but was a little too racist to swing with the left was that's you know the yeah, that's where we're at. Yeah, that's the Ron Paul libertarian. Well, yeah, but they all want libertarianism for other people and they want socialism for them. Maybe Alex is not interested in first principles or actual philosophy of
Starting point is 00:33:50 belief. He's interested in selling and when your primary motivation runs in that direction, it's best not to have positions that alienate and discussed most right thinking people like in a disaster. It's your right to price gouge. Even if you're watching people die, who you could have saved right there is that my point here is that most libertarian beliefs are insane and very unpopular with most of the public and even Alex knows that I would almost admire him more if he got on air and he's like it's crisis time. I have what you need to the price is going. Yeah, while at the same time saying he would never price. No, no, no, that shit aside like take just the libertarian stance that you like free market shit that you pretend to believe
Starting point is 00:34:32 in and just be like I have what you need pay up suckers like that would be at least in line with his beliefs. But you know the reason he can't do that is because he's also artificially trying to create a demand. He's he has the hard work of trying to create this panic in his audience right fear that leads to an inflation of demand sure and if he were to be like I have the supply suck it it would kind of hurt his ability to do that. It might it might honesty does not work in free market capitalism. It's it's not it's not the best. So Alex said that Matt Bracken was going to be coming in to talk about this here disaster. And before he gets to it, Matt Bracken gives a little bit of a shout out to a group that he's I guess fans of also just for a moment.
Starting point is 00:35:25 If you can indulge me, I want to give a shout out to the the Appalachian battalion of the Masi Oak militia. And this is our this is our secret one of our secret ritual recognition signs right here. Okay. You can get a picture of that. Okay. Nazi salute. The Masi Oak militia. Okay. Anyway, I have to be wearing this today. So anyway, it's kind of an inside joke among people like to shoot in the woods. I understand. But yeah, anyway, what a fucking dork. Well, so the Masi Oak militia is a name that pops up a bit in forums on like AR 15.com. Sure. And from what I can tell, I'm not sure it's a real group. It seems like a name that's thrown around to denote someone who seeks to embody the vibe of a guy wearing camo. In one post discussing the upcoming at that point Virginia
Starting point is 00:36:16 gun rally from January 20. The poster discusses how it would be a coming together of quote, businessman slash professionals, the local boy in blue jeans and a t-shirt, the fud in his coveralls and a straw hat, the Masi Oak militia and the technical gear guys. It seems to me that this is just sort of a designation for right wing cause players who put on fatigues for rallies. Yeah. Yeah. I might be wrong. And the Bracken is actually talking about a real group. And if so, that's even more fucked up since that means that Alex is allowing a guest on his show to shout out a private militia. That's probably not the case. I think this is just a dumb old man meme. Yeah. Yeah. He's just a dorky meme asshole. That sounds right. Yeah. Gross.
Starting point is 00:36:57 Man. Bracken is a guy. I mean, look, here's all we need to really know about him. Mustache. Sure. The end. Piece of shit. I mean, he likes guns. Sure. Sure. So anyway, he's not a doctor. He has no. What a surprise. There's no experience in like public health or anything like that. But nonetheless, Alex wants his expert opinion, of course, on this coronavirus. From your own research, do you think it's man made? Do you think it escaped from a lab? Do you think it's a natural mutation? Why is it being hyped up? I mean, gut level, what do you think this virus is? I think at a huge pandemic like this today, you know, it almost is a moot point, whether it's natural or man made because
Starting point is 00:37:46 I don't understand why that's true. I really know the truth. There's never going to be a record that comes out that everybody believes what cop out. It's a bullshit. It's a moot point cop out. Get the fuck out of here. It should be pointed out that Matt Bracken's research into the coronavirus is completely meaningless. Even according to his own self written bio, there's literally no reason to take anything he says about biology or health seriously. According to his bio, he has an undergraduate degree in Russian studies, which he got back in 1979, and he was a Navy seal for a while. Then in 1993, he built a boat Russian studies. There's the northern lights in Russia Corona, boom, coronavirus. I'm there
Starting point is 00:38:27 and he made a boat. See, we got it. There's nothing in his background that really makes him qualified to speak on whether or not a coronavirus is man made, which makes him the perfect guest for Alex to ask that question to they aren't interested in reality or analysis. They're interested in extreme weirdos saying sensational things to drive sales. That's all that's going on. I went to a wedding in in Maine and it was held at this like summer camp place where religious kids would go and I remember this incredibly striking scene where the woman who works there is making a fire. She works there. She makes fires every night, every summer for her for her entire tenure there and she's trying to make this fire and four
Starting point is 00:39:11 different dudes are walking in there and like, Hey, how about you try using some newspaper and shit like that? And it's like that that aggressive white dude expertise in nothing yet still the confidence to be like, and I know how to solve the coronavirus. Yeah, he made a boat. Ah, shit. He's got more boats than me. So Alex asked if this man made or real naturally occurring. It's a moot point because no one will ever agree on. I really don't think that's a moot point. Well, Bracken elaborates on that a little bit. You know, there's always going to be, you know, theories that are that are competing. So I would say, you know, sure, it could be snake to bat to man or it could be the Canadian bio research lab to Wuhan bio chem lab or research lab. And then
Starting point is 00:40:02 it gets out, you know, it infects somebody in the lab and they go home and it gets out that way. But I don't think we'll ever know definitively. There aren't competing theories. There's science. And then there's the load of bullshit that Alex and Bracken throw around to spread fear and sell their shit. This is a really dishonest framing device that Matt Bracken's using where there's an insistence that dumb completely baseless stuff that's discussed on infowars is exactly the same as the work researchers at the CDC are doing. There's literally no difference to them between the head of the World Health Organization and John fucking Rappaport. Right. Like this is ridiculous. They aren't competing theories. One is a theory. Okay, and the other is bullshit.
Starting point is 00:40:40 All right. Well, I think we need to teach the controversy, Dan. I think that's the situation. Nobody bullet. Nobody will ever know whether evolution is a thing that happens. It's impossible to have. I mean that is the like, like just put on a completely universal scale. What are you saying? Yeah, exactly. It's like, hey, you know what? Like, yes, there are people who are taking this very seriously. Right. I saw a meme. Right. We are the same. Okay. We are the same. So this guy has worked in this sort of, I don't know, virology field for his entire life. He's got several PhDs. I he also I think you've got something to say, my brother. Right. Awesome. Yeah. Awesome. So they get down to talking about like, hey, we got a real issue here, man. Why isn't Trump
Starting point is 00:41:27 stopped travel from China? The UN has said it's a global emergency, but doesn't want travel restricted. But most countries are researching travel. So why hasn't Trump done that yet? We'll answer that question as best we can on the other side. It's Friday. We're live. We've discussed this in the past, but suffice it to say that experts do not agree with Alex and his assertions that shutting down travel is the best way to practice containment of an outbreak. It's pretty well understood in the academic community, which is why when you hear people who are insistent that travel should be shut down, it's a pretty fair assumption to make it. They're either not very informed or they just want travel shut down for other reasons. And this is as good as excuse
Starting point is 00:42:04 as any. It's almost that's where it's very Hegelian, if you will. Interestingly, Trump has not stopped all travel to and from China, probably because the experts know that this would not have the desired result. Screening and procedures are the way to go and you can't practice appropriate screening of travel is shut down. And that scenario, all the people who come in and out of the country are unaccounted for and completely unknown variables. When you leave travel open, you're able to monitor people coming in the country and track people who are suspected of having the condition. So and you can even isolate them if you need to you give up literally all of that possibility if you shut down travel and you in no way guarantee the people aren't still
Starting point is 00:42:44 going to be coming across borders. Yeah. So it's it's it's something that people that's only one of the factors that we've got to consider like how much it would disrupt economics if Trump stopped all travel from China now be a gigantic thing to do. No, he'll just use this as an excuse to add more non white countries to the travel ban. So you know that is interesting. You didn't have time to do that. He did seem to strangely have time to shut down travel between non white countries. I'm not sure that the I don't know if I heard it framed as like the Corona virus has anything to do with him adding those countries. I don't think so, but so it's not like he's using it as an excuse to do that, but he he sure seems to be fine with stopping some travel. Sure. Sure.
Starting point is 00:43:29 And to be fair, it's not actually travel that that is inaccurate because the people from those countries can still as I understand the article that I read was saying that they can still apply for like visitor to come, but immigration sure sure sure is being stopped from Nigeria or Eritrea Kyrgyzstan in Myanmar and that people from Sudan and Tanzania will not be allowed to apply for lottery visas right. So you know you still creeping towards this yeah thing. Yeah. Yep. Yeah, but not not interested in stopping travel from China and did it on see on news days that could not handle adding a travel ban fury to the the whole certainly not yeah. So Alex talks a little bit about the impeachment stuff and he's pretty convinced that they're going to vote to acquit
Starting point is 00:44:20 that evening Friday evening. Okay first he's that's pretty standard of his position and it's interesting because he doesn't really have much to add to the the entire thing, but he does try to rewrite his own history by the hell to Trump hiring. We warned him is trying to sink Trump on right now as they try to get witnesses, which will be Bolton. So Alex is trying to say that he warned Trump not to hire Bolton about Bolton. Steve Pechenik did Alex argued with Steve Pechenik yeah that Bolton would be an apparatchik and he would do Trump's bidding. He knew this way around the swamp and so he would be a really useful tool because that's what Roger Stone had told Alex. Presumably I don't even know if this is true, but it's been
Starting point is 00:45:05 discussed on Info Wars that Roger Stone and John Bolton play poker together. Great. I have no fucking idea if that's even true or just some shit talk, but yeah. But Roger was like no no John Bolton's cool. Yeah. Alex went that way. Steve Pechenik was the dissenting voice who is now Alex is trying to pretend. Oh yeah. We listened to him all along. Yeah. Absolutely. We said don't hire Bolton. No you didn't. You rationalized it. Yep. Yep. And yeah. Whether they play poker or not. We all know stone is rat fucked his way up to Bolton sooner or later. So undoubtedly they definitely know each other. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Steve and Bolton. No. Not sure I believe that one, but yeah. Roger for sure. So in much the same way that the news couldn't handle incorporating
Starting point is 00:45:49 this immigration crackdown thing in that news cycle because there's so much breaking. Yeah. Alex can't handle his own show either because there's breaking news in the middle of this episode. And this just broke. Marlago gate crashed. Shots fired. That's being reported by WSVN7 news. Had someone try to wham through and shots fired. There have been an incident Marlago down from his property in Palm Beach or his winter in White House. Florida according to local news reported involving gate crashing and shots being fired. WSVN News 7 reported the Palm Beach Sheriff's Office sources said there was an incident at Marlago in Palm Beach. It just happened 30 minutes ago. Someone ran the northern checkpoint near the property and the deputies fired at this person.
Starting point is 00:46:41 The journalist said on the air Secret Service officials have fired the person as well. The person who sources believe is a woman was still able to get away. Officials are saying the person ran from the scene and is still out there. And it's just somebody off their medication. That's happened Jesus. Or is it a psycho trying to kill the president or trying to attack him. I mean I physically have had people you've seen it attack me. You can tell by the way Alex is reporting this. It's a story that he wants to be about someone attacking Donald Trump. You can tell because there's no information available to him at this point but he's trying to decide how to portray it. Yeah. Like he gets editorial choice in the direction we take this
Starting point is 00:47:26 and he's like well it could be someone off their meds but people have been attacking me right. In reality this was a case of an impaired driver driving very erratically and dangerously near Marlago. All the shots that were fired were fired at the driver and there's no reason to think that she was trying to even get into Marlago. According to ABC News she quote blew through two checkpoints that but did not enter Marlago. The sheriff Alex's favorite kind of law man even said quote this is not a terrorist thing. It all began when officers were called to the scene where a woman was reported as quote dancing on top of a car several miles away from Marlago. When the cops came she fled and the cops followed coincidentally heading towards Marlago just by coincidence.
Starting point is 00:48:10 She was driving on the wrong side of the road and flew through checkpoints so I guess the police decided to open fire on her car. She managed to get away and fled to a motel but police had been following and they arrested her there. Honestly this is a story that in another time Alex would be covering as clear evidence of horrible police state shit. Let's imagine it's 2009 and this woman is a nice white Ron Paul supporter who just wanted to have a good time dancing on her car. You can see how this entire story would be played completely differently. But now every story is told through the prism of nationalists and Alex's weirdo community being under attack. A story that has literally no details on it is being told with speculation that it's an attack on Trump
Starting point is 00:48:50 because that is what he wants it to be. If this is an attack on Trump he can yell about it for the next year like the Scalise shooting. He can use it as evidence that the left is violent and trying to kill all conservatives sure but it's not. It was a drunk lady driving erratically and the cops decided to shoot at her. Yeah I'm going to go with I'm going to go with every part of this story should be blamed on the cops. Yeah she was just dancing man. She was having a grand old time. I think that you probably like granted. I don't know all the details either right from the details. I was able to glean. It doesn't seem like she handled the situation very well. She doesn't seem like that merit shooting at her car. It really doesn't. It really really really doesn't.
Starting point is 00:49:29 She made some bad choices. The police made it seems like the worst choices. Yeah yeah whatever the case has little to do with Mar-a-Lago. That's really just a coincidence. Anyway later in the show Alex gets an update on this and he had some more of the details but it really still feels like he wants to push this as a Trump's under attack. This could have just been somebody that was going the wrong way and not paying attention. They could have been drinking and could have been driven in and driven out and then you do that in a secure area like that. You're going to get shot at. That's that's sad but there's going to be collateral damage in a climate where they're saying Trump is literally Hitler and having a nation is Hitler and then
Starting point is 00:50:13 the only person with any connection to Hitler we see is George Soros literally was a Nazi collaborator and said it was the best time of his life and then he finances a whole network saying Trump is Hitler. You kind of get the sense there that like the narrative he's more interested in telling is the one where this is an example of blowback from Soros. Everybody to tell Trump tell them Trump's Hitler. So I mean you get it. Pretty sure we have some more connections to Hitler and in the White House. Maybe. So Jordan I got some I got. I told you my favorite one of my favorite big brags is going to be on this episode and it's coming up in this next clip. All right. Then we got something really fun. Then we got something really stupid. Okay. So that's
Starting point is 00:50:56 the syllabus for the next little show. All right. So get excited for some. What I'm saying is have some fun while you can because we're going to end with nightmares. Here is Alex Jones's big brag. You know I'm not bragging but I was actually on the road to being like a top voice over guy. I was voicing major trailers stuff for films TV ads insurance company commercials. But as soon as when you're the Alex Jones criticizing Obama right when Obama got in. I mean I made one year $890,000 because I was in the half tarp you know the whole guy was guilt whole deal for voiceovers. And so it would go through that. And I did a lot of this place got built on voiceover money. But that's what happened as soon as I criticized Obama like a spicket. The jobs
Starting point is 00:51:39 went off. So yeah. So according to zip recruiter the national average salary annually for a working voiceover artist is $65,000 only 7% of working VO people make over $198,000 a year. And these would be your big names in the field. The idea that Alex Jones made $890,000 in a year doing voiceover work is laughable. None of the stories about him discussing his early years in public access or local Austin radio. None of them mentioned his ridiculously explosive voiceover career. There aren't credits to his name from that period. You can find which would be the case if you've done any working films or TV. Yeah, they keep records for that long. Sure. They don't just stop by the time Obama was elected. Alex was already years into being a pretty widely known
Starting point is 00:52:29 lunatic. He put out his Bohemian Grove film in 2000 and after 9 11 he was cemented in his images of 9 11 conspiracy theorist. Alex wants the image to be that he criticized Obama and lost about a million dollars a year in his side hustle because the only real currency in right wing media is a victim hood. He needs you to think that he's been oppressed for his political positions, but unfortunately he's making all of this up. So the figures that he comes up with just sound comical. If Alex made $800,000 in a year doing voiceovers, he would have legitimately been one of the top people in the field. Like I can't stress this enough. There would have been so many pieces about him in trade magazines. Yeah, you would have been the talk of the town and it's
Starting point is 00:53:10 not like now voiceover is primarily funded by video games. He's you know like you're not making a hundred and ninety thousand dollars pre two thousand eight. You might you might if you were like got big ad campaigns. Maybe that's fair. That's fair, but a lot of those are. Yeah, I mean like John DiMaggio isn't making eight hundred thousand dollars a year and he's one of the best. I bet he is. Yeah, I bet I bet he is. I bet he's making even more than that. I I genuinely doubt it. I think that I have a little bit. Look, Futurama DVDs aren't going as hot as they used to. Still he's got deals. I'm not saying that Alex doesn't have some skills with voiceover. Just that the only places I believe he's practiced this art or in his own films and in forward
Starting point is 00:53:56 commercials because there's a you know there's a little trade secret that I know from my time trying to get into voiceovers dudes with voices like mine and Alex's are not in high demand. It's a super competitive area of the market because there's already a ton of very established voice actors with deepish gruff of voices. So even if Alex did have a decent voice, no one would care. He'd be guy number five thousand who fits that mold and in order to get any work, he'd need a really good voiceover agent and he'd have to be working on it full time. Yeah, sending out like sample audition tapes for scripts. It would be such an intense process for him to break in with the voice that he has. Oh yeah. The picture that Alex is painting depicts
Starting point is 00:54:39 a reality that does not exist. He was the number one voiceover talent in the world until he criticized Obama and had it all taken away from him. It's such horse shit. Also, it's pretty funny to imagine that someone with the political beliefs that Alex has would ever join the fucking screen actors guilt. Yeah, no kidding. There's plenty of non union work you can get in voiceovers. So that wouldn't even be a necessary thing for him to do. It's all bullshit. It's just complete shit. Yeah, I don't remember him in any early 2000s anime, which is a dubs would be where you're going. I bet that he did do some like local commercials. Oh yeah, I wouldn't be especially because he was working in public access radio. I know from my time when I interned at a radio station,
Starting point is 00:55:19 a lot of the radio commercials, the voiceovers were done by yeah yeah at the radio station. They got kicked a couple bucks. Yeah, they worked all morning and then recorded a couple of promos after after their show and then they went home. I could see Alex doing a little bit of that, but eight hundred ninety thousand dollars in a fucking year. No, get the fuck out of here. Yeah, or show me your tax returns. Show me some credits. Yeah, yeah, I would love some sort of proof of that because if so, that's a crazy story. So Alex has been trying to latch on to whatever conspiracies are floating around about the coronavirus out in order to cause panic right chicken. Some of them are real stupid chicken, but none of them have been like real laughable
Starting point is 00:56:08 stupid chicken vaccine is pretty laughable stupid. It is once you get down to like what that patent was that they were right now. It's not on its face. Yes, right. Yeah, this one right in front of you. Oh my God. This is bad. There was an article. Welcome back to the Alex Jones show. Thanks buddy saying meet the real umbrella corporation and I'm not a huge resident evil fan. I am a fan of that Eastern European chick, whatever her name is I've seen a couple of and it's about an evil corporation village above of it really. It's the Red Cross of the secret societies. Cool. Cool. Rosa Crucian, Rosie Cross. Got it. Absolutely. Because you know, the Red Cross is actually the oldest operating intelligence agency
Starting point is 00:57:01 secret society that's ever been. Sure. There are some that are older. They're just not continually operating. Right. Of course. Everybody's like, Yeah, this is like the umbrella corporation. And then my buddy, Shane Stoner, sent me this, this image. If you're a TV viewer, you can see it and it says umbrella corporation overhead shot if we could. That'd be awesome. Thanks. And the actual research laboratory where this happened has the exact same symbol, but instead of red and gray, it's green and gray. I mean, it's the exact same symbol. Got him. I'm like, okay, that's got to be a joke. And then Corona translates to raccoon sitting in that. Corona translates to raccoon. Okay. I don't want to
Starting point is 00:57:49 get too deep into the lore of resident evil, particularly because the games and the movies diverge a little bit. And honestly, I can't keep it straight in my head. The whole oh man game is which later on she becomes a clone fighting the. Oh, it's wild. Look, what's important here other than Alex being attracted to Mila Jovovich is there's a meme going around where a facility has a logo similar to the umbrella corporations logo. And that has convinced some dumb dumps that it must mean that this real world lab is creating a bio weapon, much like the umbrella corporation did with the T virus in the resident evil. Yeah, I mean, I can't. I can't find any flaws in that theory. It's one to one a leads to be. I mean, and what
Starting point is 00:58:32 really just hammers at home is Corona translates to raccoon city. We're gonna get to that. That's too obvious. The meme that went around was claiming at this place with the resident evil style logo was the Wuhan Institute of Virology, but it clearly says if you look at the uncropped image Shanghai on the front of the building, that's because it's actually a biotech lab in Shanghai, which is about 500 miles away from Wuhan. Also, Snopes looked into it and it doesn't even appear that this biotech lab in Shanghai is even open anymore. Seems like it's gone out of business. Geek culture, the website posted an article about this lab having a logo similar to the umbrella corporation in June of last year. And in the same article, they discuss a skincare clinic
Starting point is 00:59:13 in Vietnam, having an identical logo to umbrella even down to the colors. And there's actually even another article about that skincare company in Vietnam from 2017 about it. The part there at the end, Alex is misunderstanding another meme when he says that you translate Corona to raccoon. In reality, the meme is that Corona is an anagram. Oh Jesus Christ, which is the name of the city where there's the outbreak in resident evil raccoon city. All right. One major, major problem with this theory is that if you look at the words, you might notice that raccoon has two C's in it, whereas Corona does not. I don't understand. Kind of makes this a dumb anagram or some might say not in order to be clear. The spelling with two C's of raccoon
Starting point is 00:59:57 is cannon and resident evil. That is how it's spelled in the game. This is super, super stupid, but it also it's really important to point out things like this. Alex is taking the time to cover this dumb meme shit as if it means anything. This is the level of analysis and insight he brings to his work. And it's so sad. He's had idiots like Mike Adams coming on to say things like this. It's over for humanity. There will only be lone survivors because of the outbreak humanity is over. And he's so desperate to blame his imagined enemies for this that he sinks to this level of shit. Henry pretending dumb hoax means some idiot posted online or worth anyone's time. This is the best work Alex can do because he's not even trying anymore. He doesn't do any research.
Starting point is 01:00:39 He doesn't prepare anything outside of his show. He just shows up and gets mad at a picture of fucking Adam Schiff. Yeah and pretends it's not the show. Yep. All this information comes from dumb memes and headlines he reads on websites run by his employees who have zero editorial standards and tend to just make shit up. And so this is what you get for the show dumb memes presented as research and Alex yelling about his feelings. Yeah sad. It's sad that anyone doesn't like people. I don't care. His audience is twenty thousand people. The idea that there is anybody who doesn't see through this is very sad. It's not good. No. I remember playing a collaborative storytelling games online when I was like sixteen seventeen. Angel fire websites. Sure. What if we
Starting point is 01:01:23 had banned adults from using it back then. It was just our it was our little secret club adults were like I don't understand this this internet culture. We just get rid of them and then no memes like this. I don't think that would work. No probably not. They'd still be sending chain letters. So this is dumb. Yes. This is very dumb. It's super dumb. Raccoon Corona done. Not quite. Translate logo proof. Not good. See I thought Corona meant crown but I guess I was way off. So Alex is like this logo. Why would they use that logo. Why in the hell because it looks like they have that symbol. Now I've got to look it up. I spent like 10 minutes this morning and couldn't find when they got that logo. But it appears the company and the logo comes after Resident Evil.
Starting point is 01:02:12 Why would you pick the Resident Evil symbol of the Evil Global Corporation. Why. Why because it's famous folks. This is big. This is big. It's not big. There are a hundred possible reasons for that lab to use that symbol similar to the Resident Evil one off the top of my head. The owner think I was a fan of Resident Evil or the owner doesn't know about Resident Evil. Just think it looks cool or the owner wanted to troll idiots like Alex. There are a lot of possibilities but it's there's one thing that I'm confident about. It's that this is not huge and Alex is not about to crack this case. Also does Alex think that people shouldn't be able to use certain logos because they're associated with fictitious villains. Yes. Real free speech hero over here.
Starting point is 01:02:52 When was the last time you saw anybody use a golden gun that's been retired. Does he want the state to be able to exert control over a business owner's First Amendment rights to use whatever iconography they want. Also does this extend to countless products that are marketed with depictions of the Christian devil. Absolutely. So a lot of hot sauce. Why would they. Why would they use the devil. Why. Why would they use the devil. Tell me. Give me one good reason. Also how does this square with Alex constantly playing the Imperial March from Star Wars which is the anthem of the bad guy. You don't remember them being the heroes. Shouldn't he be asking himself how the hell could a show open with the Star Wars bad guy theme music almost every day. How the hell
Starting point is 01:03:31 because John Williams is brilliant. I could dick. Oh that's that's pathetic. Yeah. I really how could the how. Why. Why would they use. How did the fucking Resident Evil come up with a logo. It's the same way. Logos are hard to come up with. You just start drawing shit and eventually you're like I like this. Why is he. This is important because raccoon translates to Corona dad. Fair enough. So Alex is operating off the non true piece of information that this logo is on a lab that is the Wuhan virology Institute. Yes. Yeah. And so he's connecting a bunch of stuff together here and this is just sloppy shit where this came from. A lot of experts believe in shadowy groups tied to the U. S. military and tied to thefts in Canada. Of many genome
Starting point is 01:04:23 RNA is now being tracked back to this company. And you've had four releases of coronaviruses before SARS is a coronavirus by Chinese labs. I believe it's a record says oh you better not ask questions. That's a conspiracy theory. Well here's Senator Cotton talking about it yesterday. They also claimed for almost two months until earlier this week that it originated in a seafood market in Wuhan. That locals had contracted it from animals and say bat soup or snake tartare. That is not the case. The Lancet published study last weekend demonstrating that of the original 40 cases 14 of them had no contact with the seafood market including patient zero.
Starting point is 01:05:17 As one epidemiologist said that virus went into the seafood market before it came out of the seafood market. We still don't know where it originated. Could have been another seafood market. Could have been a food processing company. I would note that China that Wuhan also has China's only biosafety level four super laboratory that works with the world's most deadly pathogens to include. Yes. Coronavirus. Oh. And he calls for shutting down all flights to the U.S. Smartly as Lancet saying up to 15 percent death rate which I don't believe. What. You said it was 18 percent yesterday. Flights from China. That clip is a muddled mess of bullshit. We got a disentangle a little bit of this first like we talked about on the last episode
Starting point is 01:06:07 the Lancet study that Alex is referencing doesn't say that the coronavirus has a 15 percent mortality rate just that among the 41 patients that were in their sample set who came from a pool of people who had pneumonia and tested positive for the virus. They had a 15 percent mortality rate. That's not applicable to the general population in any way. It's good that Alex doesn't believe that there's a 15 percent mortality rate but it's super dishonest to claim that Lancet is saying that second. Alex is saying that this lab with the resident evil logo is the lab that Tom Cotton is mentioning in Wuhan but it's not. This is a lie being spread to make the Wuhan lab more suspicious as the source of the outbreak. Sure. Alex is acting like it's weird that there would be
Starting point is 01:06:44 a big bio lab in Wuhan but what the come on. It's a city of 11 million people. It's not like it's some kind of a rural spot where it'd be weird to see such a lab. It makes total sense that it's there and no matter how many times he implies it that lab is not the same one as the one in Shanghai which probably doesn't even exist anymore. Third coronavirus was not stolen from a lab in Winnipeg in Canada and sent to Wuhan. This is a lie that went around on right wing media based on a CBC report that did not say even close to that. What are you. So what you can see here is all of this getting muddled up and mixed together to form some kind of a unified conspiracy theory. It's not true that the scientists in Winnipeg sent coronavirus to Wuhan and it's not true that this lab with the
Starting point is 01:07:26 Resident Evil logo is in Wuhan but when you combine them it's now true that a Canadian scientist sent coronavirus to the Umbrella Corporation. Yeah. You see how that works. Yeah. It's pretty quick. It's combined. It's pretty quick. Yeah. You form a unified theory. Also I said that he thinks when he said he doesn't think that it's 15 percent. I think he means that it's like 40 percent. I don't. I don't think so. I took that to mean he thinks it's lower. I think so but I think it's the opposite. It's open to interpretation. Yeah. Much like the Bible. Yeah. As for what Tom Cotton was saying in that clip it's fair to say that it's still unclear exactly where the coronavirus came from. Initially there seemed to be a trend that a lot of patients had
Starting point is 01:08:07 exposure to that seafood market. So to quote Lancet quote exposure history to the who on who and on seafood market wholesale market served as an important clue at the early stages yet its value has decreased as more secondary and tertiary cases have appeared. None of this means what Alex wants it to mean. He's playing this clip to imply that the seafood market was a red herring that was deployed and that the lab in Wuhan must be the source of the outbreak. But none of that's substantiated outside of Alex's guesses and implications that are not founded. I just you stop believing people for competence. That's that's what they think. We're like oh well we saw a bunch of people go to this market. So our first thought was let's look into the market
Starting point is 01:08:50 and then we found out that it wasn't the market. So now our thought is let's find the other thing that's just called that's called doing your due diligence. It is and stop thinking that trails that people go down that don't turn out to be correct or a cover up. Yeah. Yeah. And don't stop thinking that means mean. Right. Right. It's so essential. We're watching. We're watching a literal cover up and you can see the opposite trend here. They're trying to keep from interviewing people and seeing them and maybe going down the road. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So the voiceover was the big brag. Sure. The Umbrella Corporation shit was the kind of fun goofy stupid right now. Let's get now we get to the annoying. Alex has another guest on the show.
Starting point is 01:09:37 Oh no. Sometimes you see something. No. Don't. And it blows your mind. And that happened to me. I woke up at three thirty in the morning last night with all the stuff going on. Break some coffee. You took a shower. Went and walked around the local golf course that's next door. What came back about five a.m. and sat down with an iPad. Had another cup of coffee and I went to info wars dot com and saw a Kelly McBreen article. He put out like yeah last night I'd missed and I watched it twice and bleeding. I don't have forty five minutes to watch it twenty something minute twice. I watched it and I was like I got to get this guy on tomorrow. But there's all this huge breaking news. But I said this is important because what it illustrates for everybody
Starting point is 01:10:22 it's it's like a skeleton key or a rosetta stone. But I'm going to get as we're going to take on the impeachment of Trump the trial the virus first in this segment then we'll get to what we're talking about when we come back. But I mean I don't have enough words to describe how these senior former federal police now attach another federal group thirty year veteran royal mounies in their suits sit there and act like something out of a movie about the old Soviet Union or Nazi Germany. I mean it's it's or or it's like that scene when Mr. Anderson in the first matrix you'll meet the agent Smith. I mean I watched this and it's it's it's it's horrifying. And then I went and read like hundreds of comments on YouTube. I sat there
Starting point is 01:11:14 and then you know my kids start waking up come in like six thirty I'm making a breakfast and like what are you doing. And I'm reading the comments. Everyone sees what it is. So it looks like Ezra Levant is going to be a much more frequent presence on Alex's show which is pretty interesting. I guess shitheads got to stick together when times get tough. Yeah. For those who don't remember Ezra Levant is the guy who runs Rebel Media which employed all of the real dickholes. Yeah. I was going to say Lauren Southern Katie Hopkins Tommy Robinson all the shit bags Gavin McGinnis all these real real cool people. Also Alex that golf course is private property man. You should be respecting that. There's a lot that's interesting
Starting point is 01:11:53 about this clip and I should probably explain what the context is. But I think it's the most important takeaway I think is that Alex got caught up spending hours reading YouTube comments. He's a 45 year old man who pretends he does real research and somehow he feels like YouTube comments are in any way a barometer of truth or public opinion. That would legit be like me saying like something Trump did was bad. Then saying that I read a bunch of Twitter responses as proof of it and still trying to maintain that I was at all a serious person. Yeah. Like this is fucking sad. I wonder what Carpe dunked himself had to say. Also super important point we don't bring up enough. Alex gets up in the morning and checks out the news on his own website.
Starting point is 01:12:36 He's getting the news from people he pays to come up with bullshit. This is the very definition of a vicious cycle. Idiots post dumb shit on Alex's site. Then he reads it and gets mad about it. It's just such a lame way to live and no amount of walking around a golf course justifies that kind of you know just that doesn't make up for it. It's still very sad. Yeah. There's a reason John Kelly was fighting to keep info wars away from Trump. Right. I imagine we should get a John Kelly to keep info wars away from Alex. His dad should be doing. Yeah. As for Ezra. I don't really care about his situation. It's very clear what's going on and all this. But what it is is it has all the makings of a perfect right wing victim hood narrative, but it's just based on nothing.
Starting point is 01:13:19 So the situation is this as we're released a book called Lib Tronos. Lib Rano. It's like liberal, but like with Sopranos. It's a poor Manto. Anyway, LeBranos LeBranos. Yeah. Anyway, it's about Justin Trudeau being corrupt. He released this book back in September to 2019. He can barely call this thing a book. It's 124 pages. So in the world of political exposés, it's pretty much a pamphlet. Ronan Farrow didn't consult on this one. Did not. I'm surprised. Regardless, this was a problem because according to the Canadian Elections Act, what he did may have been a violation of election law. According to the letter that Ezra posted on his website that he got about this, the commissioner of Canadian elections sent him a letter saying quote the allegations are that
Starting point is 01:14:07 rebel news contravened the act by one, failing to include the required information on third party election advertising and two, having incurred over $500 in election advertising expenses, failing to register as a third party in the 43rd general election. To break it down, the allegation is that the book and the marketing of the book amounted to political advertising for or against a candidate. And in order to publish such materials in Canada, you have to register as a third party election advertising entity. Right. Right. That's that's smart. It kind of keeps shitholes like him from doing stuff like that. Right. When it comes to the publication of the book, it's particularly relevant whether or not the book was planned to be published whether or not there was an election.
Starting point is 01:14:53 That's the central question. Yes. And the answer is obvious. Yeah. And this seems to be one of the central questions of why this letter was sent informing Levant that an investigation was being opened. Something that's probably not working in Levant's favor is that there is a clip of him that's referenced in his interview with these investigators where he specifically said that he wanted to get the book out for the election. That makes it kind of clear that he was trying to do election advertising with the book. Right. Regardless, this is a polite letter. It informs him that I read the whole thing. Yeah, it just informs him that he's welcome to cooperate or not. And if you'd like, he's invited to schedule an interview with the investigators.
Starting point is 01:15:31 Anyway, that letter was sent on December 9th, 2019, and apparently Levant just had that interview because he snuck a hidden camera in and recorded himself. No. Hettulently badgering the interview. No. What a dick. It's a really sad look, but it's exactly the performance you need to really get that conservative victimhood juice flowing. And I can see why Alex watched it multiple times. It would be like crack to him. I watched the whole video. It's annoying. And Ezra Levant comes off like a scam artist baby. But also he seems to be editing the footage to intentionally obscure an element of the case. It seems like the interviews viewers are less interested in the publishing of the book per se and more interested in the advertising of the book. If you write a book
Starting point is 01:16:14 about Trudeau being corrupt, then advertise it with a ton of signs and posters everywhere with Trudeau stylized as the Sopranos DVD cover. It's going to be indistinguishable from a flyer posted by a competing political party. That seems to be where their interest lies in how the fact that he wanted to get the book out before the election and that his advertising materials were basically political advertisements. That's the vibe that I get from their question. Yeah, and Levant is in a bad position in terms of trying to defend himself because based on the way the act is written, it's pretty clear that he's contravene the right right. The bottom line is that there is a law that Levant is very likely in violation of. It's a law that sounds weird to
Starting point is 01:16:55 American ears, perhaps, but it's part of the Canadian election law and he has every reason to know that. All you really need to know if you want to understand this is to watch the first two minutes of the video that he put out and Alex watched twice. It's kind of a sizzle reel of him sassing the interviewers. Then you get Levant talking to a camera and he tells people that if they want to read the letter that the elections board sent him, they have to go to save rebelnews.com. This website is just a fundraising website. The top link is for people to send him Bitcoin. It's all just Trudeau is trying to take me down and then quote. There's no way I could pay our free speech legal fees without the help of you and thousands of other supporters like you. So if
Starting point is 01:17:37 you use the form below, you can chip in whether it's ten dollars, a hundred dollars or even more. Man, I can't imagine somebody sending him Bitcoin. That's like one Bitcoin is like three grand still send him point. Oh, yeah, yeah, exactly. This entire website built around the video Alex is promoting of Levant being a baby in this interview is specifically about raising money for some imaginary free speech stand he's taken against Justin Trudeau. This is textbook free speech grifting if there's ever been a case. It looks like he's guilty of violating election law. He's been warned that there might be a penalty for his actions. So instead of trying to start a movement to change this law, he's fundraising about his plight. Overturning that law seems like
Starting point is 01:18:17 a really dumb idea because then any billionaire who wanted to get around a leg election regulations could just put out a half cooked one hundred twenty four page book to use as an excuse to put up a ton of unregulated election materials masquerading his book ads. Oh man, it seems like regulation is really a good thing in this situation. Isn't it? Yeah, and I think we've it's odd. I think we've seen in America what some of the consequences are of loosening up these no. No citizen United was great Dan. Ultimately, Ezra Levant is a loser little titty baby and I have zero interest in his self-agreement play in his twenty five minute video about this interview that he had with the elections people. He asks for money at least six times. It's very clear.
Starting point is 01:18:57 He's treating this like a publicity stunt. He's ultimately going to get hit with a nominal fine probably. I would guess based on the assessment I can see of the situation in front of us, but he's going to raise so much more money based on riling up conservative persecution feelings. That's the entire play that's being done here. Damn it. Can't we just can't they take that? Just take it. Take the money that he raises as the fine. Just all of it. Just here's your fine. However much money you raise from this dumb web. I wonder because like your finest fifty Bitcoin you asshole. I wonder what the case is because I think that probably some of his actions might be further. Yeah. Yeah. They're hurting his case at least they definitely
Starting point is 01:19:42 indicate malicious intent. Yeah, absolutely, but I don't know how those things would implicate the actual case. I mean I think based on just the information that's available from his edited video. The investigators have evidence that he's indicated he wanted to get the book out for the election right and that makes it so this is political advertising which is against the Canada election right right. It's pretty open and shut. I know, but as we know now Dan just because you go on TV and admit that you committed a crime doesn't mean that you can be punished for that crime or even accept responsibility for it at all. It's upsetting the idea that he would be able to just waltz through this with no consequences, but he very well might. Well,
Starting point is 01:20:28 it is Canada though. So they might give him consequences. You say it's Canada. Alex says it's America. Okay. Next clip. Alex is talking about Ezra Levant's plight and he accidentally says that this is America. Okay. You watch they're going to charge him. You can smell it. They say you're guilty. You want to walk that back? You just admitted you're guilty of writing a book during an election and Ezra Levant's like, well, I've got the law here. That's totally legal. Right. They go, you're going to jail. This is America with cops in a room. I'm trying to hotbox somebody. They smoke a weed, but it's over a book and it's like a sick parody, but it's not. It's not America. That's Canada. Okay. I guess Alex believes that American sovereignty extends
Starting point is 01:21:13 to white right wing assholes in other countries. It doesn't make it true. Yeah. If you're, if you're a white right wing asshole, you are a citizen of Alex's United States. I guess so. Yeah. Also, that letter that Ezra received from the elections commissioner was very explicit that this is not a criminal matter from the latter from the letter quote. The fact that the commissioner has decided to proceed by way of an administrative investigation indicates that he's of the view that this is a matter best dealt with administratively rather than by way of a criminal prosecution. There's no intention to charge Ezra Levant with a crime or charge him and throw him in prison. This is there's only an intention to sort out whether or not the advertising campaign
Starting point is 01:21:51 surrounding his book was against election law. And look, I get why Ezra Levant would make a big deal out of this and it's because he looks really guilty and he's a big old baby and he's also really guilty. I will let the administrative commissioner decide this. It looks so sick of this. These the law enforcement just does not know how to deal with these guys. They always get this tiny, explicit, ill will. Yeah, like, but it's not a guy. Those guys committed a fucking crime by sneaking into a federal bill right and they had to they had to they had some consequences for that right, but they could have done jail time, which is what we need to do with these malicious actors. Maybe if there is any way to punish them in the law to the extent of it,
Starting point is 01:22:36 that is who should be punished. It introduces difficult questions about how you deal with like people that you can very intuitively and I don't know empirically observe our shithead. Yeah, people have like sentences for marijuana. Fuck these guys right, but you're against that too. Exactly. You can't use that as a justification. I know why you should lock these people up forever. I know it's bad. Difficult. It's a really hard question. Yeah. And I think I keep coming back to this. I think just widespread awareness of these people's patterns of deceit and shitheadery. I think is probably the only thing that is like really powerful against this because otherwise wielding the mechanisms of the state right become really difficult because then
Starting point is 01:23:26 they get to pretend they're victims of the state. Right, right, right, but they're gonna pretend their baby. You know Alex is presenting. He's a victim of the state just because he got kicked off YouTube. True. You know like they're gonna pretend to be victims of the state no matter what. Yeah, maybe there is no win. I would say the I would say D platforming does does it help it does. Yeah. Yeah. I mean as far as steps to take that's that's pretty big true. Yeah. I don't know. I don't have a prescription for the solution, but I would say that locking people up marijuana convictions expunged this guy 10 to 10 to 20. I'm with you for the first half. I'm if you on the cell. Okay, so Ezra gets to talking about how he thinks he's innocent. I don't know if his
Starting point is 01:24:08 defense is very good in Canada election law. There's a special exemption for book and the promotion of book. So I mean I've written I don't know almost 10 books or so I'd have to count the best sellers. So the book is clearly protected under our laws and yet they still brought me in Ezra doesn't seem to understand the issue, which that's me being glib. He fully understands the issue, but he's pretending not to because if he reveals that he does understand the issue, he'd have to admit that he probably broke election laws. Alex. I've been advised by my lawyers actually actually great work Barnes to lie directly to your face in your audience. That exemption that he's talking about that exists for books and advertising of books. It only exists
Starting point is 01:24:54 if the book was going to be released whether or not an election was happening. If the book is specifically released for an election as Ezra has said is true of his own book. It is no longer eligible for that exemption because it is in essence an election advertisement that and that would all be totally fine for him to do that to release this book and do all these advertisements. He would just have to register as a third party political advertiser. Registration is confiscation. He doesn't want to do that either because if he did, he would then be subject to other election laws about misleading advertisements. What he puts out would be then subject to a much higher level of scrutiny than it would be otherwise. Guys, I just want to lie
Starting point is 01:25:36 to you. Why is everybody making this so hard? This dumb dumb knows the game he's playing. He can't register as a third party advertiser without getting hit with a ton of fines for deceptive election advertising. He can't pretend that he would have to put the book out whether or not, you know, that there was an election because he said he wanted to get it out for the election. And so he's left with the only refuge there is for con men like him insisting the law says something different than what it says. This is a particularly difficult pill for me to swallow since Ezra used to be a practicing lawyer. He knows damn well how that accept exemption works good work. The reason that he has this investigation going is because his actions
Starting point is 01:26:15 strongly imply that he wasn't eligible for the exemption. He's claiming he's covered by it's the fucking bullshit. Okay, sure you have me on tape murdering that guy, but I didn't murder him. The statue clearly said yeah there's an a special exemption for murdering this guy. What's interesting is that Alex is like trying to defend him and he starts rambling real hard and in his ramble he's clearly saying that he did this out for the election. Yeah, so this is damn it Ezra. This is really strange. This is real tyranny, ladies and gentlemen, because I've read the Canadian law and have you know, of course, if you're just a citizen or a group and it's your speech, you could publish a book any way you want. But if you're a political group and it's a political
Starting point is 01:26:59 publication by the party or by a third party as an action group, you got to tell us they're trying to get him to say yes, I'm a political action group and opt in to go into jail and they're telling him you're guilty buddy. You admit you did this in the election. No crap Sherlock. Of course, I don't like this piece of garbage and I'm doing this. It's my speech. All right, so 1215 that's still in charge in Canada. Common law and it's just out Magna Carta. It's not tiptoeing towards North Korea or communist China or Nazi Germany or mallet. You know it's here. The standard isn't if you're a political action group as I understand for breeding the statue when you're putting these things out like if you're a website primarily its size, its size of website that is the
Starting point is 01:27:45 determinative factor if you need to register for this third party political advertising designation. Sure. And in this case, I believe it was the threshold is like three million hits if you're an English language website, all right, which they are above. Okay, we'll tank your own website, dude. Boom, done, problem solved. Got it. I solved it. Yeah, just be less successful and then you can play all these bullshit. Yeah, exactly. Oh, but the reason you're playing those bullshit games is because you want to make money more successful. Shit. You are quite a pickle at the problem. I think might come from spending your entire life lying about stuff man. Anyway, Ezra Levante sucks. He's a big old titty baby and I do not care to listen to any more of him
Starting point is 01:28:29 because this this whole thing, the whole thing is just a right wing agreement fantasy. Yeah, played out, perpetuated in order to direct money to Ezra Levante. Yeah, and it's it's pretty obvious. It's one of the great grips of our time. It may be is the best grift lying to white people and telling them that they're always under attack and then they give you money. Strong so easy strong grip. It's not hard. So Alex is another guest coming up that actually leads to one of the funnier moments that we've heard in a long time, but not because of the guest. You'll get it later, but here Alex announces his upcoming guest. I haven't read your book. We need to sell it. It's amazing. I know you've got to go, but we got to go to break. Come back and do five more
Starting point is 01:29:16 minutes on where you see all this going. Then we have former congressman Bob Barr. Oh, Bob started the impeachment against Herr Clinton to give us his expert take. You couldn't do better on a day like this with the president. And we'll have the link. You're gonna go with witnesses. We don't know yet. We're checking shots fired a Marlago speaking of funding. That's a lifeblood. That is a desperate. Yeah. Oh boy. First of all, like I haven't read speaking Ezra. I haven't read your book, but we need to sell it. Yep. Great. Hey, we got Bob Barr coming on. He started the Clinton impeachment. What a great thing. Shots fired a Marlago speaking of funding, right? Were you speaking? It's insane. Yeah. So Alex gets down to talking
Starting point is 01:29:58 about how like he had a realization about the globalists. Okay, right? We're we're many years in. Yeah. This is not a realization. Okay. This is basically just Alex killing time. I am blown away by how evil the deep state is and how sick they are and how filthy they are and how lying and stupid. And then it hits me. These people have been winning for a long time. They have been absolutely dominating us. And so that makes me feel like a wimp because I don't have something to prove, but also not going to lay down. And again, there's a lot of guys can kick my ass. Okay. But I remember being like a little kid and getting off the bus in like sixth grade,
Starting point is 01:30:46 fifth grade, and kids were three, four years old getting on me and beating me up and stuff until that moment when you looked at me weird because he's saying he's getting beaten up. I think he's getting beaten up by toddlers. I'm pretty sure he's getting beaten up by toddlers. Yes. That's canon now. That is info wars canon three years old. Alex. Alex got beaten up in first and second grade by toddlers. He just can't speak. He met older until that moment when I just got angry and picked up, you know, a rock that was on the ground and, and, and yeah, I mean, basically put the kid's eye out. Technically almost killed a guy. Well, you're 15 year old, 16 year old shouldn't be trying to beat up 11 year olds, but
Starting point is 01:31:27 they don't have the killer instinct folks. We do. That's why you're a killies and scum. Those of us that have it don't need to abuse the power. We've got it. Much voltage as we need. God will give it to us. God will allow me to use this rock to put your eye out kill you because God gives me that strength. Yeah. I mean, it's just as we get towards like the later stages of this episode, there is more of him just getting lost in thought and filling time. Yeah, nothing. Yeah, which is weird because he doesn't really even bring up brexit. Like I know that brexit takes effect in the evening, but you know that it's the day. Yeah, it's going to happen. He's been yelling about brexit forever. Why not get Faraj on? You know, I guess. Faraj never coming on info
Starting point is 01:32:09 wars again. I don't think Faraj got what he wanted and now he is gone. Why do you get Tommy Robinson on that? Tommy Robinson is a little toxic right now. Get count. Dankula Dankula is busy. He doesn't have time for a small show like info wars. There's a lot. I don't I don't know who Alex could get from the UK anymore. I still think that Dankula is not busy. Yeah, I'm gonna need you to back that up. Refute your your comment, but Alex is just filming time. I don't know. Anyway, Bob Barr is coming on. He's coming on later. King of the Elefants. Don't think we have any clip of the Elefants. I don't think we have any clips in because it's just yelling about the deep state. Sure. Sure. It's very stupid. No, but it turns out Mike down for this. Alex did not mean
Starting point is 01:32:58 to book Bob Bar. It was an accidental bucket. I didn't really get to a lot of calls today. We got Bob Bar who actually initiated the impeachment against Bill Clinton coming up. I couldn't think of a better gas than this whole constellation of news. I want to get Robert Barnes back on as well. I'm saying get Barnes on get Barnes on, but I must have mumbled over the phones that they got Bob Bar. But see how sometimes God's greatest gifts run in some prayers because I want to get Barnes back on too. He's always so busy, but Bob Bar. Oh, that's really great. Oh, I'm glad. Like, are you mad? We actually got Bob Bar. I'm like, no, I'm glad you got Bob Bar. In fact, you should have thought of that. We should get him on. He started the impeachment and,
Starting point is 01:33:38 you know, got that initiated House representatives and got punished by the political establishment for it. So that's coming up. Oh, yeah. Barnes is so busy now. Oh, man. Coincidence that when he stopped working for you, he got real busy. He's really wild. Real busy. He chose a specific time to get very busy. Right when I do my show. It's so weird that he's always booked. Yeah, so strange that he used to be on all the fucking time when I was employing him and I was starting to think that he had no intention of winning any of those lawsuits and he was just charging me a lot for the hours and just out for exposure. Yeah, I think that might be him. I think I might have been fucking Nigerian scammed again. Get me Robert Barnes. Oh wait. Robert Barnes is not going to come back
Starting point is 01:34:28 on the show. He is not being paid. No, he's not going to do it. What if we get Bob Bar and pretend we misheard him? Let's do it. I do think that that's but that of all the names to miss here. Very close. It does make sense. Very close. It really does very, very close. So like I said, I don't care about Bob Bar's appearance. It's meaningless. But Alex gets back to talking about the coronavirus situation. Sure. And he wants you to know that he sells very good products. I'm sure he does for this. And I think he's dancing real close. Yeah, you can't say that they're preventative or curative, right? Well, no, it's against the law and I'm not sure it's this virus. But we need to have our bases covered with the virus. And you know, I said, I would talk
Starting point is 01:35:21 about this, but it's such big news that we'll go to break and come back with a guest. So I'm going to do it right now, because this is an important decision for all you out there to think about and decide what you're going to do. But can I get an overhead shot guys? I want to show you something that I've been authorized to show you. This is in Congress. This is 13 years ago. And this is the company. And when I got this information four or five days ago, I said, listen, are you sure you want me to do this? Because you've got Department of Defense contracts, you got a lot of others that I mess with. They're like, no, no, you know, we're the owners. We like what you're doing. We got a partnership with you. We want people to know how important this is of
Starting point is 01:36:01 the Department of Defense. And congressional reports say that this product, the nano silver, has been found to knock out SARS. Well, no crap. So no, no, no, no bacteria you name it. Nobody's selling 16 ounces of nano silver that's patented. This is the top company in the U.S. that we're not even probably able this is something developed with my dad, the immune gargle ridiculous name, but that's the technical medical name and you can you can drink it and it's all it's it's it's what my dad is an oral surgeon and dentist named it. So that's what we're going to call it. But super silver immune gargle in three different sizes doesn't sound like you're selling out, but I'm still keeping it at 40% off. Despite that 50% off, you get all three
Starting point is 01:36:40 together because we're not going to raise prices during a crisis. We're not going to gouge people. So he's dancing around this. Silver has been found to kill bacteria in water. No, no, nano silver has not been found to kill. That's not entirely fair. But the point is that the this ad could be a problem for Alex, even if the claims that he's making about nano silver are substantiated or not like it doesn't really matter from the limited amount of scientific research I'm able to do. It does seem like there have been some studies that have shown some indications that nano metals have a potential with viruses and bacteria. But that isn't the part to be concerned about. It's the fact that he's selling the nano silver
Starting point is 01:37:22 product in the way he is by directly linking it and that clip stars and later he's going to with the coronavirus. In 2014, Dr. Rima Labo, former Alex Jones Gaston, wife of General Stubblebine, received a letter from the FDA and the Department of Health and Human Services warning her that the way that she was selling her nano silver was a problem. She was promoting the silver in a way that was understood to be quote for use in the cure mitigation treatment or prevention of disease. And because of that, she was no longer selling a supplement. She was selling a drug. And as it turns out, there are different rules about how you can sell drugs, particularly as it relates to interstate commerce when you do. This letter was sent to her during the time when
Starting point is 01:38:05 Ebola was the hot virus on the scene for the medical scammers. So she was pitching it as an Ebola remedy. In her sales pitches, she mentions a very similar sounding release from the Department of Defense, though she says it was from 2009, which is a little off from Alex's timeline. So he makes it 13 years ago. Yeah, it's important to recognize that it's immaterial if Alex thinks his claims that he's making are backed by a study. This is an issue of what he's required to do if he's selling a drug. He has to get FDA approval for the sale of the product. He's if he's engaging in this sort of sales. In addition to FDA approval, if Alex is selling a drug, he's required to label his bottles with known side effects contra indications for the drug drug interactions,
Starting point is 01:38:47 etc. I went to the Info War store and looked at Alex's labeling for his immune gargoyle that he's selling with a silly name, and it doesn't include any of those things. In fact, it has a warning that the claims he makes have not been evaluated by the FDA, which you can't do if this is a drug, right? It's weird because if you look at the label for his super silver wound gel, there is a statement that it's been evaluated and is effective against staff infection, E. coli, MRSA, and a few other things. Weird that he would label that one correctly as a drug, and his nano silver mouth gargle has the standard supplement labeling. Yet he's selling it as if it's a drug. And then you have to consider the fact that there are some dissenting voices on the
Starting point is 01:39:27 matter of nano silver and nanotechnology and supplements as a whole. I'll read to you from an article here. Quote, however, nanotechnology carries risks, the primary one being lung damage. Studies have shown that the most nanoparticles migrate to the lungs. Other organs are susceptible to damage as well. Scientists have found that sometimes an overactivity of this destruction process leads to cell death. Nano silver may damage mitochondria, which leads to DNA damage. Until further evidence concludes nanoparticles safe, it may be best to use what has been true and tested for several decades and consider colloidal silver without nanoparticles. That was an article from info wars dot com
Starting point is 01:40:11 from December twenty third twenty fourteen. You see, back then college wasn't selling nano silver only colloidal silver right, but in the weirdo dumb dumb fake medicine community, nano silver was all the rage. Rima Lebo was selling it as an Ebola cure and people were excited about this new breakthrough. But since Alex didn't have a stake in the market, his messaging was that it was dangerous and you should just use colloidal silver. Or you can go back to 2008 and find Alex posting an article titled quote, scientists scared as nanotechnology and nanoparticles become common in consumer products. In the article is all about how they're dangerous side effects to nano silver like pollution that kills aquatic ecosystems. The article says quote,
Starting point is 01:40:52 ionic silver is is only toxic to humans at very high levels. The toxicity of nano particle silver, said Westerhoff, has yet to be determined at that point. Alex was not selling nano silver. That is the important piece of this stick with colloidal silver because I'm not selling nano silver right now. I'm selling nano silver. It's the best. It's it's actually a cure for a virus that literally we don't know a ton about yet. Right. So he says that it kills SARS. Now the important thing that we're going to get to a little bit later is medical claims can be made about the topical silver gel because that has been evaluated by the FDA and it can be sold as a drug and there are warnings on the that appropriately. That is not true of his other
Starting point is 01:41:41 nano silver products. He's trying to play fast and loose with which product is which he can make claims about the gel sure wound gel. Yeah, he cannot about these other nano silver products and he's playing a little shell game. That's such that like the supplement industry is a billions dollar industry, mainly because they can figure out a way to live in that gray area. That's the situation, but I think that Alex is at risk of getting outside of that. Absolutely I don't I don't know exactly at what point the FDA would care or take action. Right. Right. From what I can tell it seems like he's veering close and testing the waters as to what he can get away with. Yeah, which is really fucked up. Yeah, that's that's God that shouldn't be. I don't know
Starting point is 01:42:26 how to police that, but a supplement huckster like Alex should not also be able to have an FDA approved drug. No, like it should be you're either an FDA approved drug salesman or I don't know you can't. That's so fucked up that you have similarly named products. Well, but I mean one is explicitly for topical use and the other is to be ingested. It'd be very difficult for anyone who did any kind of looking into it to get them confused. Right. And Alex does very frequently tell you not to eat the wound. Okay. Well, that's good. Give some indication of the audience. Okay, don't eat the moon. He goes up his opening statement on every show now is don't eat tied pods. Yeah, so Alex has gotten some sort of a letter here that he's reading, but I don't
Starting point is 01:43:12 think he read it before he went on air because it's not he's not reading really like important parts of it. Yeah, I don't know what's going on here, but this is what he's using to sort of imply that his products are useful against the Corona virus. Here's the deal. Department of the Army headquarters, United States Special Operations Command Tampa Point Boulevard, and it goes into Andrew C. Vaughn Eddenbach, Commissioner of Food and Regministration. And they go on to say that with antibiotic resistance and all the rest of it, we have found that this particular type of nano silver is effective against SARS and a whole bunch of other stuff. Then it goes on here. The Texas A&M System Health Science Center.
Starting point is 01:44:01 And it says confidential because they don't want this type of stuff out for a lot of reasons. And it goes over the fact and says Dear Secretary Ridge, and they go on to say the Office of Homeland Security, John B Connelly Building. So that A&M is running a whole secret project for the government. Sure. Sure. That's jump. In particular, nano silver we found in our trials, secret trials. Secret trials. With American biotech labs was very effective. This report is that the Corona virus like the SARS same family virus homeland defense put out the data that our product could kill that one. She the above letter from the director of Homeland Security, the secretary, Dr. Carlton, ex-surgeon general Air Force is a brilliant man who came
Starting point is 01:44:49 up with the model hospital system, mobile hospital system. We only received a copy of it because our testimony before Congress on malaria, and it was included in the addendum of the testimony we never received a good copy, but we did get a copy and it's worth reading. And it goes on, but you haven't done reading it is what I read this. It goes on. None of this matters in terms of what Alex is doing. If the testing really is there, that's cool. I have no idea what testing he's talking about because it's apparently secret test secret testing. There are plenty of non-secret tests you can find in medical journals that indicate there's some promise for nano silver. Alex feels emboldened by these secret studies that he clearly hasn't read.
Starting point is 01:45:29 Honestly, I would be surprised if he even read that letter prior to getting on air based on the way he's jumping around just whatever is highlighting scanning. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But because he feels emboldened, he's drifting super close to selling this silver as a cure for the coronavirus. And if he's doing that, he's entered a completely different game and he's at the great risk of the FDA getting involved at which point. I mean, I would assume that's the last thing that he wants. Yeah. I really don't think he can't handle another front. No. Nope. So he's been he can't handle the fronts that he's on right now, let alone adding the FDA into it. He's been teasing that he's going to, uh, you know, reveal the name of his silver supplier.
Starting point is 01:46:08 Sure. And so he does in this next clip, but he also reveals that his dad with Paltrow. No. Oh, his dad is behind all of the supplement line. Oh, apparently. I, which I wasn't clear on, but I also don't care like seven or eight years ago. And I said, dad, I need you to come in and manage supplements. We need to put on our own, put out the best and you've brought stuff. He's research scientists as well. Do some things. I said, we need you to bring us the really the best stuff and help certify everything. And he did it. And, and, and then he brought us the folks that are in the super silver toothpaste and the super blue toothpaste. It has the anise silver. This is the top company folks. This is, and they're like, no, just say who we are.
Starting point is 01:46:43 Dr. Keith molar CEO, American biotech labs, LLC. That's the big one. They're the only ones that have approved over the counter super silver wombs. Y'all do not take this internally. This is super well, let's just say we're doing this poisonous to bacteria and viruses, which means it ain't too good for you, but it's more than dying, right? American biotech labs is a legitimate company. They focus on a large part of their business is medical applications of silver. They have an FDA approval for the wound dressing gel, but that use of nano silver is topical and it's not the same nano silver that is in Alex's products that are taken internally. He cannot take the approach that the, you know, hey, this approval is here for the gel and then just apply it to
Starting point is 01:47:24 other products because they're both silver and made by the same company. That is not cool. He cannot do that. Also interestingly, American biotech labs uses silver sol, which, you know, for its nanotech nano silver supplements. Guess what? That is exactly the same nano silver that was used in Rima Labo's products, which earned her a warning from the FDA in 2014 for getting too far down the road. Alex is starting to go down. The more details Alex gives out, the more it looks like he's heading that same direction, which would be great for him because then he can pretend that he doesn't understand rules and play the victim of government oppression, trying to wipe out my supplement business. Also, now that I know where Alex is getting his silver wound gel from,
Starting point is 01:48:03 I can compare prices. If you buy it from Alex, you're going to pay 50% off Dan. You're going to pay $39.95 for a four ounce bottle currently marked down to $23.97. If you buy it from a website like Vitacost without the Info Wars labeling, just the American Biotech Labs product, it costs $27.99 for a four ounce bottle currently marked down to $16.96. We're right, right, right. Yeah, you can get everything that he sells cheaper without the Info Wars labeling. If you just go, this is a really dumb idea to say, oh, we just take all the products from there, put on new labels. Anybody who's in his audience, I guess the allure still is just refunding the Info War. Yeah, it has to be, but you're paying way more.
Starting point is 01:48:49 Right. I guess that's the, I got nothing. That's, I mean, that's standard like say the MSRP is this, but then deflate it and you still have your profit margin. I'm not, but Jesus, I'm not at all angry about people who do markups in order to allow their businesses. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I am against people who make their entire presentation. Hey, we don't mark anything up. We're not playing a game here and then all the prices are higher than other places. You can find the exact same product with a different label. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's what I'm against. I'm against. If he starts, if he starts a sentence with a clause, then the following clause will prove that he was lying about the first one. Sure. I just take issue with that and I don't look like I
Starting point is 01:49:33 said, I think that Alex is getting close to like bad water. I'm not positive that he's fully in violation of FDA guidelines, but I think he's really fucking close and the way he's trying to sort of muddy the water with the wound gel and the gargle is just like it's, it's a, it's a fucked up game because the implication and the message that the audience is supposed to get is that the gargle will have the same effect and will kill the Corona virus. Right. Whereas that is not an FDA approved right thing and because he's not explicitly saying that just dancing around it. I don't know if it's actionable, but the intention is there and it's bad. He does sound resentful toward his dad for the immune gargle name because it is a terrible name. It's a
Starting point is 01:50:20 technical name. You can drink it. Nope. Terrible. So this next clip is a little long, but I think it's one of these things that, you know, it's kind of against type throughout this clip. You will hear at least four instances where you're like he's about to do an ad pivot okay about to do an ad pivot and it never comes. No, that's fucked up. You can't do that to me now. It's important to point. I know I've ruined it, but it's important to show every now and again he does the exact same behavior and then just never hits the dismount. Jesus. It's rare. It doesn't happen very often, but I think this is an intense example of it. The reason the president doesn't have more support is they threaten everyone around him. I mean we're talking sex
Starting point is 01:51:04 operatives, infiltration, grab their bank accounts. People threaten to kidnap the kids. I mean it's beyond any movie you've ever seen. Okay. You just saw a Canadian Royal Mount of Police saying we're going to put you in prison for a book you wrote against Trudeau. I mean it's these people are unchained. They have no chivalrous connection. By the way, chivalry is what powerful people do because they want some rules on themselves. They want to get rid of the chivalry. They want to start going down that line. They're going to reap the whirlwind, but I got to tell you something from the bottom of my heart. Plug right there. That's the plug. That's obviously a plug. We're living in incredible historic times and I just when listeners call up and they say, Alex, thank you
Starting point is 01:51:55 so much for what you're doing. They could put a gun to my head. I wouldn't stop doing this. You understand that? Because this is like getting oxygen. I'm not a huge skin diver, but I've gone down to about 80 feet and come back to the top. Some people can really go down like a thousand feet and do it because they can press your blood so they have more oxygenation, but it's coming back up. You got to watch out for, but I've gone down about 80 feet. So here is where I thought oxygenation meant to get to a plug and he got just distracted by talking about skin diving. So I thought like, okay, the plug is going to come after the skin diver. Skin diving and down there, man, like a minute. Whoa. It's like everything's so bright. Everything's
Starting point is 01:52:32 so clear. And then you come back up and like, I need air. And I started using the whole skin diving analogy, but products, services. I don't know why I was using skin diving analogy. Good. I'm not going off talking points here, but that this is like, oh, it's coming back up at the top and getting air. I mean, I'm like somebody that went down 80 feet and I'm coming back up with my flippers and I just want to get that air. So here I'm thinking like, okay, he's found it. He's now going to use like you giving me money. Exactly. Or the only reason I'm able to get that low is because my blood's not under pressure 30, 40 feet down and now my brain's going, whoa, you don't have air, dude. So me fighting tyranny is not some heroic effort.
Starting point is 01:53:34 It's air in your lungs. And the air in our lungs is money in your lungs. It's not like some heroic thing to suck air in your lungs or love your children or somebody walks up and punches you in the face to kick their ass. That's not heroic. Giving us money is heroic. That's the thing about fighting. You know, you don't want to get to fight with some big I started to fight with you. But you know, as soon as they take a swing or as soon as they connect, you're like, you know what, I'm going to beat your ass and then it starts. There's something so satisfying when that bully gets hit really hard and then rallies again and you knock them down again. And then all the
Starting point is 01:54:13 sudden they go, yeah, and your foot goes right in their face and rakes their nose and teeth out. And I don't want to be like that, but I'm telling you that. Don't thank me for this. This is everything. This is the animating contest delivery. This is what it's all about. And here's where you think he's going to jump right there. And if you support me, I can continue the exact way. Absolutely. Absolutely. I wouldn't be anywhere else because I love you if it weren't for you with you in eternity. I don't want to go with Satan. I want to go with God and I'm not going to put on some fake candy ass Bible thumper BS up here. I love Jesus and that's it. Jesus made me and that's it. I love God and whatever God does
Starting point is 01:54:55 through me, it happens. Now here's where I thought he was going to get sacrilegious because I was so sure like it's been minutes now right right clearly waiting out the clock to get to the commercial. Yeah, absolutely. This is an insane ramble. I have no idea what he's trying to say. Skin diving, fighting, breathing, kick somebody's teeth out. I don't want to be like that. Like Jesus loves me. I guess so I thought like okay. He's accidentally started talking about Jesus. He's going to have to use that somehow to launch into his ass. Sure. And I think honestly, maybe because he started talking so much about Jesus here at the end, maybe that precluded him from it. He realized like there's not a really good swing
Starting point is 01:55:33 point. Nothing Jesus loves more than naked capitalism used in an exploitative manner. Sure. Yeah, but I just go out the spirit and God even want me to stand up there and tell people how pious I am all day or sit there and tell people how I read this many books, the Bible, and I memorized this and I've got all God wants me to get up and take on the new world order. Then why do you do the other stuff? Because if you know one thing about God, God hates cowards. That's not true. No one knows who originally said that, but it's true. Literally the meat shall inherit the earth, you dumbass. Who are default position to not have fear committed to God's will. But our flesh is
Starting point is 01:56:17 imperfect. So to be able to line up with God is a process of flame and you've got to be put through the fire of hell to operate the metal again. But it's all about and goes out to commercial. It just like that's the weirdest thing. It's so weird. That's I was so many points that are like this is a classic. Yeah, I'm mad because I was trying to sell his products for a prime opportunity. All right here we go. Oh man sell my shit once again. We have proven that Alex Jones has never read the Bible or has no idea what the contents there. No Genesis one one in the beginning God hates cowards. Gotcha fair enough. My bad. I don't know who said that. It wasn't God admittedly or in the Bible. Genesis one to God really likes people who have a default
Starting point is 01:57:09 position of no fear loves it loves that no fear of the t shirts. Yeah, yeah, the whole thing. He's God wears nothing but three wolf moon t. God is basically a dog with a t shirt. Isn't that the logo of no fear? I can't remember anyway. I think one of the reasons that Alex could afford to not do a pivot there for for ads is that he's hosting the fourth hour. Oh he is okay and it's entirely about survival food. There it is. Hey in addition to selling the survival food. Alex is super defensive about selling the survival food. Yeah, of course we got some time left before this next guest joins us. Let me just get up and talk about this right now. I didn't just start selling horrible food to the audience last month or six months ago or a year
Starting point is 01:58:01 ago. I've been selling survival food to people that believe they need to get it. I've been doing that for 20 plus years because it made sense to me to have insurance you can eat during any crisis and we hope Trump and America wins. We hope the globalists get defeated. But in a war like this there isn't any arming that wins a war politically or militarily that doesn't have food backing it true. And so that's what we're talking about here. Napoleon went into Russia. He ran out of food. He failed. Hitler went into Russia. He ran out of food. He failed. Are these examples of people you wish had more food? Yes, absolutely. This is a big problem with Hitler was he didn't buy my food. This is bad framing. You're trying to sell food like, you know what Hitler but he went to Russia
Starting point is 01:58:52 didn't have enough food. Real tragedy Chairman Mao just didn't have enough food already off to a weird start. If Pol Pot had enough food man he would have been able to kill way more people right. So Alex is like he said before we get to this next guest and the next guest is the guy who runs my Patriot supply. Sure is survival food company. We're in Ted Anderson territory. This is a big old infomercial but you know so he's loyal. He loves my Patriot supply loves it. But the thing is that recently he's been being reached out to by other survival food companies and the way he trying to get more money out of this dude on the show. I don't think it's a shakedown. Okay, I don't think it's a shakedown but it is convoluted as hell the way he's presenting
Starting point is 01:59:38 this. Obviously I just straight shoot the listeners. It's all I can do. It's my superpower is that I just tell the truth and what's going on. You're lying now. Two plus weeks ago said why are you promoting storeable foods and water filtration by this coronavirus is obviously out of control. And I said I'm always promoting water filtration and storeable foods and the best storeable foods and the best water filtration. I'm not going to sit here and like freak out at this point. But then we saw the sales over the last weekend just skyrocket and then I got some calls not just from our main supplier my Patriot supply but I got calls from all over the country different companies trying to get me to endorse their product or become sponsors suddenly.
Starting point is 02:00:32 Right. And here's why you're good at that. Yeah. You are good at scaring people in your dedicated audience and moving product because you create pandemonium fears and like relate everything. Every kind of fear or anxiety people could have you take amplify and direct them to whatever products you want them to buy. If I were running a survival food company and I was a little bit shady you better believe I'd be calling absolutely fuck. Yeah why wouldn't you yeah hit your wagon to that bucket and Alex is saying that sales are skyrocketing because of the effort that he's put in to push the survival so odd that sales of this specifically are skyrocketing super weird when you have people like Mike fucking at him saying things like this
Starting point is 02:01:20 it's over for humanity there will only be lone survivors I'm never going to stop playing that it's gonna say if we get a new technocrat drop that one's right up top baby never going to stop playing that you could never forget that that's your new Ebola cure like anyway like of course when you have that kind of rhetoric being pushed on the show and you have at least a certain amount of people who believe and trust Alex it's going to drive sales sales have been way up these other people want to get in on the game. Alex sell our food to makes total sense is that isn't that just such that that like this is the psychopathy of capitalism entirely like these guys are like I'm definitely going to hitch my wagon to this fucking lying huckster salesman because I'm going
Starting point is 02:02:10 to get a few more food buckets out for the next couple of months. I think that there's I think that there's a way the businesses can do these you know exist in these spaces ethically not with Alex no certainly not but I think I think I have I have some thoughts on it that'll come a little bit later about like I don't there's nothing intrinsically wrong about selling survival no no absolutely it's the manner in which you do it so I would be I would be prone to say like yes the the pursuit of profit does tend to make people behave in ways like getting Alex to sell your food if it works to sell more food and that's bad right that is bad I'll agree with you that far okay thank you yeah so Alex is it's really strange because he's clearly doing an
Starting point is 02:03:02 infomercial he has the guy from my patriot supply on yeah but he doesn't really want to admit that it's an infomercial absolutely so he's trying to live in this sort of in between space that just ends up not making sense that's where I am saying this isn't a pitch but if I'm gonna pitch food I'm gonna pitch it but that's so it is a part of the equation because I'm straight shooting you yes I'm pitching you food right now I can't help it you just said you weren't gonna pitch but that's a side issue to the fact that I've been working with these folks 12 years since they began with a philosophy of high quality food at low prices but the reason I've got them on is why I started getting calls from other food suppliers saying we've sold out big institutional buyers are coming
Starting point is 02:03:45 and buying it all up but we your listeners to try to buy our product I said well do you have it on hand well we're not sure how fast it'll get there so he has these other food companies that are calling him and trying to get him to sell their food that they don't have to his what is going on yeah I'm not hey look this isn't a pitch but I'm gonna try and pitch you food yeah I'm straight shooting you when I'm saying I'm not pitching but I am gonna eight might as well yeah what is this I don't know this that's bananas this is double speak I don't believe any of what he is saying of course not why what what stupid survival company would be like okay we're gonna call alex now and we'll have food for him in two months right when this entire thing has blown over we have no
Starting point is 02:04:28 food yeah but we need more customers go hey sales for us get on it call alex fucking jones right it's very it's it makes no sense yeah so alex is is trying to like maintain that illusion that my patriot supply is on not to sell anything but I mean they are but they're not the real reason they're here today is not even to sell you food they're selling it out faster than they can get it it's to break down the fact that I gave him a call a few days ago and I said I'm getting calls that the food's selling out and they're gearing up for some big emergency do you know about this can you tell me if there's been big governmental buyers coming to you and they said listen it's no secret we've had the general services administration should have set up front coming
Starting point is 02:05:15 to us trying to buy up everything we've got because all the other major food distributors are either sold out or close to selling out so if you understand the dynamic that's going on here my patriot supply is not on to sell food they're here to create a panic that there is no food exactly which will drive you to buy their food there you go so I don't know why he's not just leaning into this narrative of like if the institutional buyers are buying up all the food we're selling it to you to keep them from getting it so people get the food and not the institution my patriot supply does make that point a bit right but that's what you lean into you don't do this wishy washy I'm not going to pitch you on this food I'm pitching you on the food
Starting point is 02:05:57 but I'm not but I am I'm a straight shooter who's lying to you as we speak right I think it's because Alex is beginning to get done some pushback about this well yeah we're articles that I saw certainly posted on Twitter where people were making the point that like in crises like this scam artists are opportunistic and they they this is where they try and make their their bread and the logo are like the header image on it was Alex and Mike Adam of course so like I know that he knows that people are like critiquing him for it so he knows that he's doing it right and their critiques are accurate right it's the same dynamic with Ezra Levant yeah same shit yeah you know what you're doing yeah anyway so there's this idea that you've got these institutional buyers who
Starting point is 02:06:41 were buying up food if that's the case I would assume that it's the same thing that happens with like the the emergency people like FEMA like of course they buy up a lot of food if that's true which I don't know if it is yeah but they would always be right they would always be looking for a supply chain because there are emergencies of course a lot of times even small scale emergencies that we don't know about they have to respond to of course you know it's not always Hurricane Katrina right there's there are smaller scale earthquakes or or droughts or floods of course but they're responding to and they need food to be able to keep people alive right so it wouldn't be surprising to me if they did I talk to some people now here's why I don't buy buying up all the food I do not
Starting point is 02:07:28 believe right right right that I don't believe I don't buy this thing at all mainly because Alex just said that they contacted him looking to buy up all his food if they had contacted him looking to buy up all his food it would be sold the moment they said I'm looking to buy all he would be like yes give a yeah all my all the my patriot supply does not play that game they are only interested in selling to the Patriot yeah but Alex would absolutely sell out his entire warehouse of food if somebody called saying they want to buy have a warehouse of food oh that's right he doesn't have the food warehouse he has the warehouse with all of his other shit that's not selling his website directly sends the orders to my patriot supply gotcha and then they drop
Starting point is 02:08:08 ship sure he's very clear about this yeah he has no interaction with the food in the past it's just been an info or sticker that's on there right and now it's even apparently not that because they don't want to pay for stickers right his interaction with the food is the four dollars is the four dollars extra that you pay for Alex would have no ability to sell to these institutional buyers now they didn't contact him he's just speaking in precisely they contacted my patriot gotcha gotcha and my patriot supply told Alex about this contact that they had now they talk about that a little bit more specifically in this next clip and I mean if you want to point a finger you know where to point it it started in November I started getting emails phone calls from different people
Starting point is 02:08:52 from the government basically trying to get into a system where you can get gsa contracts to work with the government on making large purchases of storable food registration is confiscation we've always said no we will never do that we will not sell to the government of my patriot supply that's within your right that's your choice um if this happened in November it's having since November guess what fucking call your boy trump about it yeah no kidding yeah this is all trump administration stuff if it is some sort of a nefarious plan so hey talk to your boy stop complaining on the radio because the only function of this is to try and sell his goddamn food yeah that's that's weird right this whole thing is made up nonsense right so basically the government fuck
Starting point is 02:09:39 off they get really defensive about this idea that like it is a good idea to have some emergency rations on hand and I have a thought about this on the other side of the clip was just sitting back last week going wait I'm ordering more food I'm ordering gas mask I should be promoting this to my audience and we shouldn't be ashamed of that we should be proud that we are warning Americans and others are getting them ready absolutely I mean we prepare for a hurricane right you see what you what Americans do and you know a hurricane is approaching one of the the Gulf Coast uh states and so you know people run and prepare in stores days in advance same thing is playing out here you know it may come to pass it may not come to pass you know we certainly hope it doesn't
Starting point is 02:10:23 but it doesn't hurt I'm not critiquing my patriot supply guy nearly as much as I am Alex but this conversation about like yeah if you're in let's say the middle of Missouri it is wise to have some canned food in your basement in case there's a tornado yeah or something like that it is wise to have a spare tire in your car put an ice put ice in the freezer put water put water bottles in the freezer and then yeah you're golden these sorts of things are not unwise things to do keep a blanket in your car now if you are in the middle of Missouri and you are trying to sell somebody something by screaming at them about tornadoes you are being a dick maybe yes yeah if you provide or offer survival food for somebody and recognize that in the case
Starting point is 02:11:17 of an emergency you might need this great by all means sell your product in good health if you're selling it by escalating panic surrounding a situation especially the way Alex is doing with completely lying about fucking memes about the corona virus yeah what you are doing is you're engaging a dishonest business practice absolutely you're taking what is a rational thing to do which is prepare in some way for a potential emergency and what you're doing is convincing people that the emergency is coming you better do this and that's immoral that's that's taking something rational turning it immoral yep and i hate it yep fucking hate it uh yeah and that's basically like this whole thing man it's all just by the food i mean the whole fourth hour is just a
Starting point is 02:12:07 food commercial there's just no other way to put it than your scamming people that's that's it you're exploiting and scamming that's like that's like to carry your analogy still further like if you're screaming at a man in the middle of Missouri about fucking volcanoes and saying that that's what you're going to need the food for there's been because the government is volcanic activity this year exactly yeah yeah or or hurricanes there's there's going to be a massive Missouri hurricane i've told you about a ziracane if you will right yeah so alex has been saying that uh you know problem is these institutional buyers are buying up all the food in the country sure so it makes this clip a little weird i've got literally like 15 other food companies contacting
Starting point is 02:12:50 me i just said okay what's your background you got a big supply they're like well actually we don't you guys do is why i chose you many years ago because i want my listeners to get a good response so they treat me like i want to be treated so let's come back and talk about kind of the way this started and and how it built up to where it is now where you guys are buying up all the food around the country and got convoys of 18 wheelers going to this music is great wait now supplies buying up all the food in the country absolutely who's buying up all the food of course all right whatever who cares anyway alex one of his big things well there's a word that alex uses that i don't hear anyone else ever use and that that is redoubt read out yeah yeah when he talks
Starting point is 02:13:37 about people you know the globalists have their armored redouts of course in new zealand and all over the place somewhere in hawaii um it's interesting great graphic novel about that called lazarus okay yeah it's really good the globalist having armored redouts yes absolutely would it surprise you to learn that alex has his own redoubt i would be surprised to learn that i'm a father i've got to be in charge i'm i'm trying to prepare for the future you know i've got a little armor redoubt outside town you know four or five acres with a gun safe and food because i'm not living in fear i'm living empowered he has an armored redoubt he has an armored redoubt a little bit outside of austin right with guns and food yep okay all right thanks alex where is it you want to
Starting point is 02:14:21 give us the address it makes me because if i'm going to become a cannibal in ten days after the end i'm going to your fucking house man this is this is where it all just like every single thing that he talks about the globalists doing it seems like you just wait around long enough and he talks about doing it himself yeah all of armored redouts oh you know i got an armored redoubt yeah it it is very much like he thinks that the way he thinks is the way they think so of course he's doing what they're doing because he's thinking that way you can even take it a step back from that like this is whole idea about these globalist having armored redouts is like they can wait out the consequences of the things they've done of course if you take a sort of broader view of it alex has
Starting point is 02:14:59 an armored redoubt because too white wait up yeah absolutely so i don't know all right buddy anyway he's really trying to sell this food and in doing so he ends up employing some pretty ridiculous things like this it's the idea of during the great depression in 1929 to about 1938 and 39 major university has to make 17 million people starve to death that is a figure i cannot find 17 million people we we had a greater famine than chairman Mao in china i can't that what we're talking about i can't find that figure anywhere but i can't find a ton of articles about how because of social welfare programs actually a lot of people were saved from starvation jalex probably doesn't want to consider 17 million is an outrageous figure insane yeah
Starting point is 02:15:52 absolutely the only reason you would use figures like that is to make people like hey you know i don't want to be one of those 17 million that dies i better buy this survival food it's all tailor made to direct people towards the food yeah so anyway the other thing too is that alex is like it's pretty clear that he's tying the need to buy this food to the virus outbreak it does creep me out that i didn't think about this until i called you guys and then i was the operator was like yeah you're glad you're calling my goodness we usually ship the next day but it's like five days right now the time i got mad on the phone which took three days you guys are like uh we live only to promote this because maybe a month more i mean let's just say you've been a little
Starting point is 02:16:34 bit concerned about what's going on it's kind of scared you a little bit well when we saw last week and we went into full motion saying hey this is uh you know gonna get a little bit bigger so you know let's make sure we've got the pipeline filled so we can serve and we can deliver like we do each and every day so there is there is a a tying of the the situation with the virus to the need to buy food now you have what is essentially like a full infomercial yeah you have sensationalism you have calls to action you have a weird vague idea that the government's buying up all the food yeah i'm surprised they didn't put a clock on like a special you know they are not going to do that well not exactly but that is exactly the last element that you need
Starting point is 02:17:21 oh yeah in order to make this a full infomercial absolutely now it's it's not the same as like on qvc you like you have 20 minutes to sure sure sure but this is a form of that i just love the fact that during regular times people get great food and water filtration you name it and during bad times they get it and that scares me though you're saying two three weeks and you're out of food because of government buying everything up that is scary there it is Keith Bassimer thank you so much we'll go to infowarstore.com to fund us it's all drop skip the same day so yeah i mean you have the the the presentation that there is you've only got two or three weeks two or three weeks and then they may be be out of food hey you think you can buy it now but you're running out of time right
Starting point is 02:18:03 yep it's it's just just buy it for valentine's day your wife will love it buy the book sort of infomercial for this food so anyway that brings us to the end of this january 31st 2020 episode and whoa whoa i don't think he did a great job is that right interesting review i think his performance left something to be desired yes the god hates cowards thing that's a standout really yeah not the voice acting claims and the resident evil references not the ezreal event crying like a baby i don't know if i can i couldn't pay attention through the no that was tough that was tough i was listening to that like preparing the episode and i i had to i had to stop a couple times yeah like not not because along with the internet
Starting point is 02:18:54 maybe i don't know half an hour or so jesus but like i just kept being like i cannot do this yeah i'm so bored this is such a transparent thing yeah just very ununappealing un uninteresting but i mean you see the direction that the show is going it's accelerating full steam ahead on trying to create panic surrounding this coronavirus it's full steam ahead monetizing it whether it be through real dicey headed areas with the silver and just overt very shameless food sales i i predict that's the i well this is the one time that i will say that they are not shameless it does seem like they oh it does seem like a little he's very shameful a little bit it does seem like this is shameful gritty shameless and shameful yeah it is it it's kind of weird yeah he is he is the yin

Starting point is 02:20:33 government is hiding their murder of all the bees using this coronavirus yep who knows lovely so we'll see but we'll be back but until then uh uh uh we have a website we do yeah it's knowledge fight dot com we're also on twitter we are on twitter it's not knowledge on a score fight now go to bed jordan we all are also on facebook we are on facebook if you'd like to down the show please go to itunes leave review do the whole thing donate we love it you guys are great we'll be back but until then i'm neo i'm leo i'm dzx clark i'm leon i can't remember a character's name from andy in chansas 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
