QAA Podcast - The Great Epstein Backstab (E332)
Episode Date: July 15, 2025Many Trump voters were under the naive impression that his administration would release information about Jeffrey Epstein’s co-conspirators in his child trafficking operation. So it came as a shock ...when the DOJ released a memo claiming that they couldn’t find any “client list,” there is no evidence of Epstein blackmail activities, and they did not find “evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties.” Not even MAGA loyalists are buying this. Jake, Julian, and Travis try to make sense of the DOJ’s blundering attempt to put an end to Epstein chatter, discuss how the memo contradicts previous statements by FBI Director Kash Patel, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and Deputy Director Dan Bongino, and explore whether this is scandalous enough to fracture Trump’s base for good.

Thank you.
If you're hearing this, well done, you found a way to connect to the internet.
Welcome to the QAA podcast, episode 332, the Great Epstein Backstab.
As always, we are your host, Jake Rakitansky, Julian Field, and Travis Vue.
Oh, I'm sure you have an intro, Travis.
Sorry, though, I have an ad.
It's for Adobe Creative Suite.
It's what you can use to edit a minute out of footage of a jail cell.
I was wondering, like, where you were going to go with this.
Interrupting Travis before he could even get the first word of his intro out.
If you interrupt me before I even speak, is that even interrupting?
No, it's actually polite.
Like, it goes full, yeah, it goes full circle.
Like, it's actually polite and respectful.
Yeah, that's the, it's the most polite thing that you could do because you don't,
you don't stop somebody mid, you stop them from ever starting.
I'm an Adobe audition.
It's working great.
We're recording in that.
And like I said, you know, this is the suite that we're,
allow you to you know edit out whoever killed epstein yeah i might maybe i'll edit out a minute of
julian's life fuck that would be cool if you could just like edit people it's funny i meant it it's
like i guess like kind of like my version of a threat but then you were like i don't know maybe
that wouldn't be so bad in fact i want that i'm on an existential tip uh
Travis go ahead please so back in 2019 after prolific sex trafficker jeffrey epstein
died in prison then the turn prolific like she a fucking hell let me get through one sentence
One sentence!
No, I don't think I will, but you're lauding his career.
Like, prolific?
Prolific is a morally neutral world.
It just means you do it a lot.
You can be a prolific interrupter.
You can be prolifically rude.
It's not a compliment.
The episode that we recorded after he killed himself, like, it took me so much longer to trigger you this bed.
Okay, please continue.
I will no longer interrupt.
Back in 2019, after prolific sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein died in prison, then Attorney
General Bill Barr assured citizens that Epstein.
his sudden end should not bring comfort to anyone who was complicit in Epstein's depraved activities.
But let me assure you that this case will continue on against anyone who was complicit with Epstein.
Any co-conspirators should not rest easy.
The victims deserve justice, and they will get it.
Everyone's a fucking hero until they get the sit down, huh?
Yeah, right.
Well, I bet Bill Barr, whose father, Donald Barr, was a headmaster at the Dalton School while Epstein taught math there.
Feels a little silly today because, according to the current Department of Justice,
Bill Barr was threatening nobody at all.
In a memo, the DOJ stated that they conducted a thorough review of the material that they have
related to the Epstein case.
And here's the evidence they say they went through.
To ensure that the review was thorough, the FBI conducted digital searches of its databases,
hard drives, and network drives, as well as physical searches of squad areas,
locked cabinets, desks, closets, and other areas where responsive material may have been
stored? These searches uncovered a significant amount of material, including more than 300
gigabytes of data and physical evidence. Bro, how is the FBI doing a limited hangout to
itself? This is so fucking curse. It's like, of course if someone wanted to hide it, they're not
going to leave it in a fucking desk. Oh, we're looking for it everywhere. We checked under
the beds. Bro, it's like, it's the fucking Tim Robinson, like, dressed as a banana thing.
Yeah, totally. And what did they find, according to that memo? This systematic review revealed
no incriminating quote-unquote client list.
There was also no credible evidence found that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals
as part of his actions.
We did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third
parties.
Bro.
Doom.
It's like nobody fucked kids with Epstein.
It's like nobody was there.
It just didn't happen.
You know my theory here is just like it was everybody.
Like there's nobody who doesn't want this squashed.
That's why it's so absurd.
It's like the guy had a private island, private jubes.
private jet, private boat, submarine.
He's taking people underage women there.
There are photographs of them there.
He's notorious criminal.
He's done these things.
But there's nothing else.
He's like, well, the island was like just where like he did his own crimes.
And like all the people who visited, like they had no idea.
It was like the people who went to Diddy's party.
No idea that people were being like raped in the back rooms.
Bro, like, yeah, Epstein was just like doing the barbecue thing.
And then he did leave for a couple hours.
But then he came back and just, like, finish the ribs.
Because everybody knows, like, you need your own island so you can do perfectly, like,
legal, you know, above board things.
Like, what do they think we think?
Because it's like, the black book is out there.
We know he had multiple numbers for Donald Trump.
We know he knew everybody.
Like, had their numbers, was in contact.
We have fucking passenger, you know, lists of people who were on the plane.
It's basically, like, the entire trail is just like, it's like when you're playing,
like, a Batman game and, like, there's just like a blood trail leading you.
somewhere and then it's like, well, there's nothing, there's no quest actually, nothing to see here.
Citing graphic content and victim privacy, the DOJ said no public disclosures of Epstein files are
appropriate.
Yeah, yeah, the fucking issue here is that it's child porn, so let's not arrest the people
who fucked children in the videos.
Of course, there was a question of whether Epstein had any active assistance in ending his life.
Active assistance.
So to quell those suspicions, the DOJ released nearly 11 hours of footage from a camera from the
common area of Epstein's special housing unit, which they say someone would have to pass through
before they got to Epstein. So there's about 11 hours of this very low-res shot.
Bro, this is such a low effort cover-up. So that's the end of that. So the conspiracy didn't
extend beyond Elaine Maxwell and Epstein himself. Boy, that's a relief. I owe an apology to
Prince Andrew. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They took him off the list. He can travel here. He can fly now.
Is right. Am I going to have to retract all my stories about him?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that was rude.
That was actually really fucking slanderous.
Now, there are some, if you can believe it, who don't find all this very satisfying.
Yeah, Travis, I do have to probe you and say, in terms of idealness, would you say this is or is not ideal?
No, no, this is far from ideal.
Now, the people who don't really buy all this include serious journalists who have covered this for many years.
Julie K. Brown, the Miami Herald reporter, who has done heroic work exposing Epstein,
Wrote this on Twitter.
As I've written too many times to count, there are massive amounts of FBI slash DOJ files
that have not been released, or those that are available are so heavily blacked out that they're
unreadable.
The FBI and DOJ can release these files, redacting the names of victims, so that the public
knows what the FBI did and didn't do to investigate others involved in Epstein's sex
trafficking operation.
The quote-unquote list is a red herring, but that doesn't mean there aren't names contained
in those FBI files.
Yeah, I tweeted this.
I was like,
there's no client list
so we can't list the clients.
Like, what are we fucking talking about?
There are people in the FBI right now
that were part of that team
that opened the fucking safe on the island.
You should be a fucking ashamed.
I hope you listen to the show
so I can tell you that you're pathetic.
Yeah, you know, it's funny.
It's like one of those things,
whereas again, I would really like people
to get clear on definition.
Sometimes when people say,
the client list was like,
do you imagine that like
when he,
whether there's some sort of like Epstein personally kept like, okay, RFK Jr., two children.
Prince Andrew, three children.
It's like there's probably, probably that doesn't exist.
Sure.
He's fucking turning the little like iPad and it's like square, you know, like there's like two bucks off.
Like if you, you know, purchase a few times, you become like a trusted, you know, client.
But, you know, I think also when people say, you know, the Epstein list, they also mean like lists in the same sense of like all books.
that who's titled start with the letter T, right?
There's probably not a list of that that exists in reality right now,
but you could compile such a list if you had all the right information.
Yeah, Epstein docs are kind of timeless, I find,
like especially when it comes to people posting about them online.
Like stuff that came out years ago will be sort of presented as like a new new docs.
Just like anytime people say Epstein docs,
like you really have to kind of go in and see which ones they're talking about
because there have been just a handful of disclosures over the last decade or so, like, a lot of
it from testimonies that were made a year ago, but people will oftentimes, depending on how it
can be used politically, will bring up these older lists presented as new. And so there is this
kind of a shapelessness to anything, you know, Epstein-related, document-wise at least.
This is what we call like shit-covering, essentially, you know, to get parapolitical, to become a
power of politics guy. It's so straightforward. Like, the black book was a PDF and it was just
released. It was out there for everyone to have. The fucking passenger manifests are out there for
everyone to have. So they have to make it more complicated. They have to be like, uh, well, uh, it's like a
fucking infomercial where it's like, oh, I don't know how to drink from a cup. I need this other
cup. Like, give me a fucking break. You know what? Until they fucking do a decent job at actually
investigating this. It is a fact that he was a Mossad agent and that America is a fucking
genocidal Zionist project and Epstein was a very key part of that. And fucking children is like
their ritual. Like it's like their, they're blackmail. It's their fucking now you're part of the
club because you can't go back. Like what are you going to not send weapons to Israel when they
have a video of you fucking a kid? Anyways, I am saying this because the FBI has not done a good
investigation. So when you do a good investigation, I'll stop being pilled. We're more than happy to
accept, you know, good research, solid, you know, solid investigatory work. We're more than happy,
you know, we like to normalize changing our minds around here at the QAA podcast. But until you,
you give us cause to do so, yeah, we might, we might, you know, Travis not included,
spin out of control. They should start a Patreon. Like, have they considered doing like an independent
podcast? Like, the FBI probably doesn't even pay that well. Like, you can make some good money,
you know? You'll be fine. They won't kill you. They won't edit it out using Adobe.
But what's interesting is that, like, even the MAGA faithful are pretty furious about this.
Like, I've never seen, like, them as pissed off as they are about this and like multiple
platforms. So we're going to talk about that today because, you know, they believe that the Trump
administration would release significant information related to the Epstein case, but now they feel
betrayed. This is a skill issue. Like, you fell for this?
dumbass? He's a pedophile. Like, the one thing I think maybe Joe Biden isn't is a pedophile. And I hate
that guy. Anyways. Yeah, say what you want about Biden. No Epstein connections. If he ever did
pedophilia, it was like a Mr. Magoo style pedophilia where he got into an awkward situation and
like a saxophone was playing. Now, part of what made this memo so confusing is that so many
Trump administration officials have previously indicated that there was a list to be released. I
I mean, Attorney General Pam Bondi claimed that a list of Epstein clients was sitting on her desk.
The DOJ may be releasing the list of Jeffrey Epstein's clients.
Will that really happen?
It's sitting on my desk right now to review.
That's been a directive by President Trump.
Bro, yeah, yeah, the list, the list that reveals the pedophilic, like, sex cult at the core of world power and the empire.
Yeah, it was just like in my inbox.
Like, it was just sitting there.
Yeah, I'm going to get to it.
Now, more than ever, my story about Trump severing himself so that he could, you know, like, go to Epstein Island without, like, somehow feeling and being held accountable, it feels, like, closer and closer to reality.
If he's like, first thing I want you to do is get the Epstein client list, we were very good friends.
He's like, like, very good friends.
He wished his wife well, like, you know, or I guess girlfriend, Slane Max, they weren't married.
I don't, I don't think.
Madam.
And it's Galane, Galane.
Elaine. I don't know. No, no, no, finish your thought. It's just like, I don't know. It's like when you were in high school, like trying to hide like, you know, like the water pipe, you know, from your parents or whatever. And they were like, hey, they were like, hey, we got to like go clean out like your closet and stuff. Like, you know, and you're like, oh yeah, like we should we should do that right now. We should do that right now. Like we'll go through before I've had a chance to reshuffle anything. Have you seen boogie nights?
Yeah.
I would really like to theoretically be William H. Macy and what I'm walking in on is all of these people.
Okay.
I'm trying to be oblique.
Back in 2023, before he became the FBI director, Cash Patel suggested that the list wasn't being released because of all the big names that were on it.
You know, it's the same thing with Epstein's list.
It's like, what the hell are these Republicans doing?
Oh, they should give out the list.
I saw you make news this morning about that.
I got to get to that.
You say that the FBI has Epstein's list.
They're sitting on it.
That doesn't seem like something you should do.
You're protecting the world's foremost predator.
That seems like an evil thing to do, regardless of who may be embarrassed in the release of that list.
Why is the FBI protecting the greatest pederist, the largest scale pederist in human history?
Simple, because of who's on that list.
Dude, it's like we keep sending someone to the door to, like, investigate and they just keep joining the party.
They're just like, well, while I'm here, there's music and dance, it's kind of
cool. Okay, send in another investigator. Yeah, you're all fucking brave until you get the sit down,
huh? On Dan Bongino's podcast, less than a year before he became the deputy FBI director,
he implied that the Epstein list was a big deal. Another guy I'd love to William H. Macy.
Folks, the Epstein client list is a huge deal because it speaks to an enormous problem we have
in this country. It is that there is a connected class of insiders that feel that they can get
away with anything because they can. The Epstein client list, I believe, based on what I've heard
from sources, and the story I just told you, basically, is going to rock the political world.
There's a reason they're hiding it. There's a reason they're hiding it. These people just all
wanted an invite. They just wanted to be invited. And now all these people are like at the highest
positions of the Department of Justice. And the official stance from all of them, technically,
is that there was never an Epstein client list.
Yeah, now they're all doing the like theater piece
where it's like, oh, I'm so conflicted about my job.
Oh, I keep plucking in at the genocide pedophile factory.
And today I realize that maybe what we're doing isn't so good.
And when Trump was asked about the issue during a cabinet meeting,
he waved it away as a non-issue.
Are you still talking about Jeffrey Epstein?
This guy's been talked about for years.
You're asking, we have Texas.
We have this.
We have all of the things.
And are people still talking about this guy, this creep?
That is unbelievable.
Do you want to waste the time and do you feel like answer?
I don't mind answering.
I mean, I can't believe you're asking a question on Epstein at a time like this
where we're having some of the greatest success and also tragedy with what happened in Texas.
It just seems like a desecration.
But you go ahead.
Yeah.
why don't you send in like another fucking paramilitary arm into a city to do like fascist
sweeps fucking clown oh you're still talking about this yeah we are yes people fucking
still think about that and go my god there's a crack in the world something is deeply wrong
yeah we still think about it you fucking idiot see at the very least like democrats are smarter
than to like give specific promises like this like all of these guys for years and years
and years are like, the clientless, the clientless, we're going to get this, like, this has to be
let out. And against all odds, somehow ended up in the position to do that. This was supposed to be
the one good thing that came out of having all of these idiots, unconcerned for their own
safety, get into these positions, is that maybe, maybe out of pure spite, you know, they were
finally going to release some of these documents, you know, so the public could have some kind of
clarity on just how many people were truly involved with this, this sex trafficking ring.
It's a no-brainer. Like, the deal they get is just like, they talk a big game, they access power,
they get set down, they get told, okay, on one side, we could find and kill everyone you've ever
loved. On the other side, we'll help you be powerful. It's like, it's a no-brainer. It's a
fucking no-brainer. It's just so right there in front of us. It's so fucking outrageous.
What kind of room do you think?
Do you think it's kind of like the office?
It's like, I don't know, like cheap fluorescent lighting above with like a, I don't know, an espresso machine and like a little basket with some creamers and stuff in it.
Or do you think it's like kind of in a vault or an interrogation room?
Bro, it's a fucking Chipotle.
That's where we're at.
Someone's sitting across from you.
They have the shitty burrito bowl or whatever the fuck.
And they're like, hey, man, I'm going to be straight with you.
You have a choice to make.
There's also some interesting claim.
So Michael Wolf reporter, he has some credibility issues.
He's kind of gossipy.
He sometimes believes in, like, wider narrative.
So I wouldn't take everything he says on face value.
But he did report that Trump was so rattled by Gislaine Maxwell's conviction that he considered pardoning her.
Honestly, if you're a QAnon person, you've been talking so much shit for so many years, right?
Oh, we kill pedophiles.
Pedophiles get the rope.
Oh, if you don't care about this, like, you're a pedophile.
Okay, buddy.
There was a moment which I reported on at the end of the last administration when he became very wary about the arrest of Galane Maxwell and asked whether or not what could she say, what would she say, and should he pardon her?
Fucking page six headass.
Fuck, man, this is all we have.
Yeah, it's not the best.
But I think it is interesting.
He was also the guy who released the tape of Epstein saying that, like, Trump was his best friend, Epstein.
So, you know, he has access to some very private conversations.
If I could fucking time travel, I'd go back to Tom Arnold's house and I would, like, pull a gun on him and, like, force him to actually tell us the truth.
Yeah.
He fucking said, like, Epstein, Tarmac, I don't know what, like, he's going to get arrested.
Trump's going to get revealed.
All this shit.
Come on, Tom.
Oh, I don't know.
I don't know if he's somebody that we should be threatening.
What do you mean?
He's out of his mind.
I don't think he could make a sandwich.
Well, he'll spare me.
So, Tom, if you're listening.
Yeah, you defended him.
That's nice.
Kill Travis and Julian.
Yeah.
Now, what about that video footage?
I mean, was that convincing?
Did that mollify anyone?
Well, not really.
I heard a lot of people say, like, wait, wait, weren't we previously told that, like, the videos
outside of Epstein's prison weren't working?
And that's why I wasn't released before.
You're changing the fucking story.
Yes, they are.
Also, if you're going to do the cover-up, metadata exists.
How many times do we have to do this?
Well, hold on, hold on.
So the video footage that they released was from like a different camera,
not the one that was supposed to be like outside of the actual cell door of Epstein's cell.
In fact, the footage released today was referenced in the 2023 Inspector General report about Epstein's death.
Recorded video evidence for August 9th and 10th for the S-HU area where Epstein was housed was only available
from one prison security camera due to a malfunction of MCC New York's digital video recorder system
that occurred on July 29, 2019. While the prison's cameras continue to provide live video feeds,
recordings were made for only about half the cameras. MCC New York personnel discovered this
failure on August 8th, 2019, but it was not repaired until after Epstein's death. As detailed in this
report, like many other BOP facilities, MCC New York had a history of security camera problems. The
available recorded video footage from one SHU camera captured a large part of the common area
of the SHU and portions of the stairways leading to different SHU tiers, including Epstein's
cell tier. Thus, anyone entering or attempting to enter Epstein's SHU tier from the SHU common area
would have been picked up by that video camera. Bro, it's been years. It's been years. Like,
look at this, look at the way they're putting it. Discovered. Oh, they discovered this failure?
It was 2019.
Oh, suddenly it's worth revealing to the public that you discovered this failure.
Come on, make a fucking effort.
You're treating us like we're really stupid.
This is insulting.
After that video was released, members of the public and press observed that, like, at one point,
the video jumped forward and cut out like 60 seconds.
Attorney General Pambondi said that this was because of the outdated recording system.
It apparently resets every day at midnight and at the same minute is skipped every evening.
they're blaming that on a technical issue.
Bondi was also asked about Epstein's alleged intelligence connections during a press conference,
and here's what she said.
To him being an agent, I have no knowledge about that.
We can get back to you on that.
And the minute missing from the video, we released the video showing definitively the video was not conclusive,
but the evidence prior to it was showing he committed suicide.
And what was on that, there was a minute that was off the counter.
And what we learned from Bureau of Prisons was every year, every night.
They redo that video.
It's old from like 1999.
So every night the video is reset.
And every night should have the same minute missing.
So we're looking for that video to release that as well,
showing that a minute is missing every night.
And that's it on Epstein.
That's it.
She's like trying to remember like what the guy in Chipotle told her, like was the reason to tell the,
the press people. Two fucking things here. It's like if your job was to like figure something out and
circle back and it took you six years, six years. Oh yeah. Oh, finally gonna check that camera and
six years. And the second thing is agent? Bro, no one brought that up. No. Weird that you would
even mention it. Well, I think that might be like a shitcoat too, kind of like exaggerating what's
being accused, what he's being accused of. At least name like the fucking three letter agency that you're
pretending that you're, like, that you're debunking by bringing up when probably no one even mentioned it, because it's so obvious.
Stranger than that, despite the fact that the DOJ claimed that this was raw footage that they released, that wound up not being accurate.
Wired published a report citing video forensics experts who said that it was actually modified, probably with Adobe Premiere Pro,
but they cautioned on reading too much into the significance of that.
So this is from that report.
The file appears to have been assembled from at least two source clips, saved multiple times, exported,
and then uploaded to the DOJ's website, where it was presented as quote-unquote raw footage.
Experts caution that it's unclear what exactly was changed.
Shut the fuck up!
The fucking press is so complicit, man.
All these articles drive me insane.
And that the metadata does not prove deceptive manipulation.
The video may have simply been processed for public release using available software
with no modifications beyond stitching together two clips.
But the absence of a clear explanation for the processing of the file using professional editing software complicates the Justice Department's narrative.
Well, yeah, when you say it's raw footage and it's not, that does complicate what you said.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This article, I mean, they should be ashamed.
But it is very comical to think of like the like high level like Mossad like pedophile wrangler.
He's on his PC and he has like he opens like the crack like the crack EX.
for like Adobe and it's like playing
chip tune. Okay, time
to get rid of this minute. Now, Julie
K. Brown also pointed out another issue with this
video. So the video shows these
two prison door cells
next to a railing and a common area
on the lower floor beyond the railing. But
those two doors aren't Epstein
cell doors. The video is supposed to show that
no one entered like the common area below
which actually takes up a very small part
of the video area, which the DOJ
says someone would have to enter
if they got to Epstein's cell. As Julie K.
Brown explained on MSNBC, that it makes the video misleading, even if it's legitimate and unmodified.
I'd like to also point out with this video that they released in the prison, not sorry to change
gears, but it's disturbing to me that video, because it implies by showing those two prison doors,
those cell doors, that that's Epstein cells. Those aren't his cells. What is going on below,
they're showing people walking back and forth to an area that you can't see on the video.
So they're implying that nobody went into his cell, but you can't see his cell on this video.
So this is all part of what has been done is they say, look, here, this shows X, Y, and Z.
And people who aren't as familiar with the facts of the case would look at that and say, yeah, nobody's going in and out of those two cells.
But really, those aren't his cells.
I mean, that's part of the problem with this whole case.
They keep putting information out there that just isn't accurate or it's misleading.
It's like a Russian nesting doll of like limited hangouts, like to the point where it's now just absurd, like it's just funny.
Well, yeah, I was like, I really am baffled that they went with that, like, whatever, it's over.
There's nothing else to explore.
We're case closed.
Goodbye.
Stop thinking about it.
I thought, you know, when they did the, like the bullshit kind of like Epstein files, you know, phase one thing.
when they invited all those MAGA influencers to the White House and handed them the binders,
I thought they were going to basically and do variations of that for the next four years.
String people long, maybe, yeah, maybe release like a little bit of, like, classified material.
That's like, you know, that's not very explosive.
And I think they could, like, feed people, like, little bits and bites for, for the entire administration.
Instead, just months after they got elected, they kind of, like, blew their wad and said,
nope, nothing here.
Don't think about it.
I was like, that's, I don't know, it's a strange, just strange.
media strategy. Those influencers were like, that was like a humiliation ritual. Like they basically,
they walked into the White House. The White House put a big dunce cap on their head and said,
great, you are a certified dumbass. Now walk out and be proud. And they all did. They all did.
They all lockstep. For documents that were fucking, the ones we already have in PDF on the internet,
but with more black boxes. Yeah, they actually contained less information than was public,
which is just pretty absurd.
This is just unbelievable.
This isn't even, like, fell for it again.
Like, this isn't even fail for it again.
Like, these people, they're too dumb to live.
Like, how do you even crap and wipe your ass?
This is just, it's, you couldn't write it any better.
Like, is the world so dumb that these three idiots, Pam Bondi, Dan Bonino, and Cash Patel, got into the, you know, got into these high positions in the FBI and the Justice Department?
And they were like, yes, like, we're going to blow the lid off this.
And they get the docs.
And Trump is in so much of it that they all have to go like, ooh, like, uh, or not even Trump.
Like anybody, anybody that's involved, you know, that's on their side that's been a hero, you know,
that they consider a hero or have held up as a hero.
Hey, listen, pal, either we kill your whole fucking family, including people like you had forgotten
even existed, but we have their addresses and there's a gun, like a gun right outside the house.
Either you do that or you can do like a kind of piece of theater where you pretend
that you're morally outraged that we covered it up again.
That'll be your out.
You can go back to doing whatever Bongino does,
like a fucking making 800 times more money than us being the dumbest man alive.
And of course, it's like, it's so, it's like golden parachute shit, you know?
But like, why didn't they have like a schoolboy cute, you know,
who came into J. Cole and said, hey, dude, you're thinking about getting into the beef with Kendrick.
Don't do it.
It's all about Drake.
Like, you don't want to do this man.
like he doesn't he doesn't have anything against you but if you step in and become a part of this
it's not going to be good like why was there nobody like the moment cash pateller dan bonjino stepped
foot into that pulled him aside and was like oh hey by the way like all the all the epstein stuff
that like you guys have been talking about like that's a that's a dead dead dead thing we'll kill
everybody in your family but like don't even bring it up like the fact that they want somebody let
them walk all of this stuff out the only thing that i can sort of you know that it makes me think is
that the whole system is so much dumber and stupider and more disjointed that none of these
departments are actually talking to each other and you can get a PR disaster like this fucking
rolling full speed downhill before everybody realizes oh we can't release any of this stuff like
everything we said is fucking bullshit we're going to have to walk it back we're going to have to
cover it up like I don't know what like how just that's all I can think is that is that it's just
it's stupider and less connected and and they don't talk to each other as much as they
claim that they do I don't know.
Bongino got a weird case.
Why is he around?
Certified lover boy, certified pedophiles.
Whop, wop, wop, wop, wop, wop, wap.
Pam Bondi's a pedophile.
Wop, wop, wop,
Trump is a fucking pedophile.
It's fair to say that, like,
lots and lots of MAGA people are displeased with that.
Like, I've never seen a MAGA revolt quite like this.
Zero sympathy.
Like, fucking hit your head on the door walking out.
Like, fuck you.
Alex Jones recorded a car video to express
his disappointment acting weepy and claiming that Trump is now part of the cover-up now by coming in
and being part of the cover-up the Trump administration has become part of it I mean it just you
cannot see it any other way so I'm gonna I just got to the office I'm gonna go throw up actually
and I this only happens every few years when something really really bad happens or something
I mean I'm physically gonna gonna pupe probably right now my mouth is watering right now
Because I have integrity.
No, you...
I just really need the Trump administration to succeed and to save this country, and they're doing so much good.
And then for them to do something like this, it terrors my guts out.
You either die young trying to expose the deep state or grow old and become an obese pedophile on Ozempic.
Or you become Alex Jones, who's starting to look more and more like a baby every day.
Yeah, just go stand in front of your fridge again, buddy.
He's a big, beautiful baby.
I have integrity.
Holy fuck.
Oh, my lord.
Maga influencer Laura Lumer and other Trump allies launched the hashtag Fire Bondi.
They're trying to say it's like Bondi's fault, not like Trump, you know.
Uh-huh, okay.
Yeah, the buck stops with her, not Trump.
Damn, the client list got loomered.
Owned, stupid libs.
Now, a few days after this memo was released was the start.
of the Turning Point USA Student Action Summit in Tampa Bay, Florida.
This is a conference to train the next generation of conservative activists.
And one of the students there told Steve Bannon that he believed that Trump was protecting pedophiles.
I think everyone at TPUSA should be wearing like matching Nikes.
You know what I'm saying?
In 2016, we trusted the plan with Trump.
But now Trump has become the deep state.
The exact thing he, we voted him in.
Why do you say he, why do you say he's become the deep?
Deep State?
What is more deep state than covering up for pedophiles?
Hmm, wow.
Pick it. Pick one.
He's either the storm or the deep state.
You can't have both.
The Great Awakening.
Elon Musk, who previously claimed that Trump was on the Epstein list in the post he then
deleted and then like apologized for, went back to accusing Trump because he also got
in the pylon basically accusing him of covering up for Epstein.
Benny Johnson, who's normally a reliable booster of the Trump administration, was outright
distraught by how this was handled.
Yeah, all the, like, closet gay, failed actors are like, oh, oh, my.
Something is horribly wrong here.
For months, we heard that the Epstein list was sitting on the desk of officials like
Pam Bondi, that there was mountains of evidence, truckloads of evidence, in fact,
that had been brought into the DOJ.
They don't understand what time it is.
They thought that they could just, like, brush this under the rug and that people don't
care.
People do care.
We care if our nation is run by a predator cult.
That's important to know.
And are those predators given free passes?
Epstein certainly was.
And so it's wild.
It is blowing up.
It is a nightmare, truly.
And I'm a massive fan of the Trump administration.
A lot of these people are my friends.
This one was wrong.
They got this wrong.
It's not that you got it wrong.
It's not you didn't.
It's this wasn't like a policy thing.
And it's like we're running.
Well, I mean, maybe.
in some ways it is. They ran kind of on exposing Epstein and all of that stuff. But guys like
like Benny Johnson, I feel like are in a unique position, right? Because if he tries to defend this,
he's going to lose a lot of audience, I would imagine. They would be like, what, you're fucking
like standing up for fucking like pedophile shame on you or whatever. So in some ways, it's like
the commitment to the grift. Like in some ways, at least over Epstein like has to keep these people
honest to a certain degree, which is kind of funny when you look at it that way. He's doing like
the most soy lib thing possible. He's doing, we see you. We hear you. Like, bro. They got this
wrong. This one, they got wrong. Like, this man, like, his face is green from, like,
secondhand pedophilia. Like, you, you were sitting in, like, the hot box. Like, you...
One of my favorite reactions, though, has to come from the pro-Trump pastor, Todd
Coconado from a Transformation Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Come on. Coconuto. Coconut. What are we doing?
So he was really struggling with the idea that all the people they trust in the DOJ are corrupt.
I don't think that he wants his legacy to be that he allowed one of the biggest stories in our generation to just go away.
I don't think, I mean, from everything that we've seen, either the man is a complete liar, which I just can't imagine that being the case.
Imagine it.
You know, Dan Bono, Gino, Cash Patel, Pam Bondi.
I mean, we'll go down the list.
Would every one of them sell their soul?
People say for money, they do it for money.
They do it for power.
They were just lying.
All of them, all of them were doing that.
So you're telling me that not one of them has a conscience.
Not one of them would say, hey, you know what?
I can't be involved in this.
So I'm going to step down from this position.
So they save their reputation and their integrity.
You're telling me that none of this group, Caroline Levitt,
who is literally a strong believer, okay?
You're telling me that all these people, okay,
all of them are willing to sell their soul for power and to, and none of them, none of them are
going to step down. They're just going to be in lockstep with President Trump to just gaslight
the whole MAGA movement. It's like you're sitting at the table in downfall and you're looking
at all the people and you're like, wait, you're telling me these are all bad guys. Yeah, dumbass.
Yes, that's what we're fucking telling you. Aren't you the party of like, oh, we say it how it is?
Wait a minute. You need a fucking safe space? Wait a minute. You're telling us that we're all going to have to
kill ourselves, like tomorrow?
What are you telling me, like, Dan Monte Carlo's not going to come in and save us?
And so, oh, wow, I've never seen a moment in history where a bunch of people sitting at the
center of consolidated power in the most evil fucking empire of the last hundred years that
have committed so many genocides so that we will never have a chance at building a communal
project.
You're telling me, these are people are all bad?
Yes, dumbass.
Yes, you fucking idiot.
Trump is even getting pushed back
on his own social media platform
Truth Social
under several of Trump's recent posts
users are posting the word
Epstein just dozens of times
We fucking DDoS these pedos
man damn we really
fucking showed them what's up man
They can't just lie to us like
We will post
Like we will type out Epstein
Dude Trump ended up being the soyest president of all
He's on here being like
I'm talking about the tariffs
He's like we're going to entering
into tariff negotiation and everybody under the comments like Epstein, Epstein, Epstein, Epstein,
he won't even, oh, Epstein, you're still talking about that guy? Like, literally, the most dis, if I'm putting
myself in the shoes of a Maga loyalist or even a, even a, you know, kind of regular conservative
that isn't a Democrat, like, this has got to be like so disappointing.
Hey, you fucking losers, you thought you didn't have a soy president? The guy who fucking, like, reviewed
the vanity fair parties and, like, loved cats.
Oh, it turned out he's a soy motherfucker.
Oh, wow.
It's like he's integrated into power.
It's like, oh, all these people are petos.
Do you know what they deserve every single one of these MAGA guys?
They should be put in, like, a fucking storage container, and we should play Hamilton on loop to
them.
That's what they deserve.
Hamilton and West Wing.
West Wing is too entertaining.
Can't believe of the guy who got into a multi-year feud with Bet Midler,
be so soy
it's so fucking funny they they literally were like this guy is fucking cool like he is
masculinity and the guy is like like a fucking degenerate queen that like people didn't even
invite to parties anymore because he's so annoying it's so funny that like for the last
eight years well for the last six well for the last fuck yeah fuck 12 years it's 12 million years
Yeah, for the last one million.
For the last, like, since the Ice Age, like, since the Ice Age, like, before the dinosaurs.
But we have, like, we've had these two presidents, we've had these two presidents that, like,
everybody is, like, lying to themselves and being like, no, he glasses, ice cream.
He pulls up in the Ferrari or he's the straw man.
He's got the glinting muscles.
Like, he's riding a lion.
But that, like, event, like, they're so old when they're trying to, like, meme them as powerful
people already that, like, they start to deteriorate, like, while the memes are still popular.
You know what I mean?
we will look back at this point in history and correctly identify that everybody involved
on all sides of politics that care about like i don't know the american nation or whatever
were so fucking gone like they were insane it will be so clear looking back it will be so
clear it's like the end days of like the most fucking evil cabal of shitheads ever to grace
this fucking earth in our modern fucking era fuck you're all all
such rubs, dude. I know that I'm not American. I get it. It probably feels bad to have like some
Swiss guy. A guy whose country like stored the fucking Jewish teeth for the Nazis. Like I get it.
Like I am not talking from like a position of power here. But you are all the dumbest motherfuckers
in the last hundred years. Get a fucking grip. Also on true social, Trump responded to this
Maga revolt with an especially unhinged post. He posted this a couple hours before we started recording.
It's crazy. I think most of the post is worth considering, but we're going to take it in chunks.
So here's how it opens.
What's going on with my boys and in some case gals?
They're all going after Attorney General Pambundi, who is doing a fantastic job.
We're on one team, MAGA, and I don't like what's happening.
We have the perfect administration, the talk of the world, and selfish people are trying to hurt it all over a guy who never dies.
Jeffrey.
bro oh my god
all over a guy who never dies
Jeffrey Epstein
for years it's Epstein
over and over again
why are we giving publicity
to files written by Obama
crooked Hillary
Comey Brennan
and the losers
and criminals of the Biden
administration
who conned the world
with the Russia Russia
Russia hoax
51 intelligence agents
the laptop from Elle
and more
they created the Epstein
files just like they
oh my God
they created it
created it. They created it. They created it. Wow. It's a fucking misnomer. Like, you really fucking think that the child rapists are fucking, like, swiping their credit cards? Oh, yeah, they all, they all just, they're just a book. Just like they created the fake Hillary, Clinton, Christopher Steele dossier, and they used it on me. And now my so-called quote-unquote friends are playing right into their hands. I mean, this is a, this is a new move all of a sudden. It's like, no, it's like Obama and Biden administration.
they create, and Hillary Clinton, they created the Epstein files, presumably to smear Trump.
What the fuck is he talking about?
This is a stretch.
Even for him.
Why are you trolling like a bitch?
Ain't you tired?
Trying to strike a cord and it's probably a minor.
Then Trump went into this defense.
I've heard from a lot of like pro-Trump people, which is to imply that like since Democrats
didn't release incriminating information from the Epstein files, that means that there's no
incriminating information against Trump in there.
So here's what he wrote.
Why didn't these radical left lunatics release the Epstein files?
If there was anything in there that could have hurt the MAGA movement, why didn't they use it?
They haven't given up on the John F. Kennedy or Martin Luther King Jr. files.
What do you mean giving up?
This is a real crash out.
True, true.
It's like we're being fucking lectured by Satan.
Like, bro.
I mean, it's like, I have to imagine if you're a MAGA guy, you're confused.
It's like, no, I thought they, like, I didn't think that, like, you know, the Democrats will release it because it, because it discriminates.
all them, but I assume you would release it, Trump, because it would really, for the same
reason, because it incriminates them. Yeah, they're like, why, why would the, why would the
Democrats, like, create the, why would they create Epstein if it was the thing that was
going to, like, get them all hung? Yeah, well, yeah, exactly. He is, uh, sort of, like, really
stomping all over, like, a big part of, like, a MAGA's messaging for the past, you, I guess,
like, out eight, 10 years or whatever. And the thing that they care most about. You're all
satanic pedophiles. The Democrats, the Republicans,
You're all exactly what QAnon thought about somehow all the wrong people.
You guys voted.
You guys voted for this.
Yeah.
Oh, you straight up voted.
You voted for the Epstein cover up.
You voted for pedophile Satan.
And I get it because the other guy who was like, oh, do I vote for like Husk or pedophile Satan?
Like, it's tough.
Trump was so close to Husk, though.
He was so close to Husk.
No, he's got so much vital energy.
Not like enough energy to do the pedophilic rapes that he used to do, but he's still got it, you know,
just typing all caps, fucking melting down about, like, Broadway shows.
Trump concludes this post by encouraging people to move on.
The left is imploding.
Gash Patel and the FBI must be focused on investigating voter fraud,
political corruption, Act Blue,
the rigged and stolen election of 2020,
and arresting thugs and criminals,
instead of spending month after month looking at nothing
but the same old radical left-inspired documents on Jeffrey Epstein.
Let Pam Bondi do her job
She's great
The 2020 election was rigged and stolen
And they tried to do the same thing in 2024
And that's what she's looking into as AG
And much more
One year ago our country was dead
Now it's the hottest country in the world
Let's keep it that way
And not waste time and energy on Jeffrey Epstein
Somebody that nobody cares about
Thank you for your attention in this matter
I don't think Democrats have ever said anything
Like this disappointing
They've done things that are more disappointing than this.
But in terms of, like, public messaging,
I don't think there's ever been quite so big a fuck you to your audience as this.
I don't know, man.
They live there.
They get their mail there.
Yeah.
This is like, it's like all of them.
It's like he repeatedly said he was open to like releasing the Epstein files.
All right.
But then, like, this is something that he must know riles up his base.
And then they said like, oh, this is something nobody cares about.
It doesn't matter.
And also, it's an Obama trick, the fact that anyone cares about.
In fact, the Epstein files were created by Hillary Clinton herself.
It was like, what the fuck?
Like, I think I believe in string theory, but like, I think in so much as we broke off from all the other dimensions and became a Ralph Stedman drawing.
Like, it's impossible to really grasp how grotesque this is.
Like, it's so demeaning.
Like, it's so insulting.
But the thing is that I think that Trump just kind of like a suit.
that like, this is the cycle of like elections and power.
You promise things and then people believe you're going to do things and you just tell
them that you're not, or you just ignore it.
Like, for example, the first time that Trump got elected, he, like a big part of his
platform was lock her up.
He was going to lock Hillary Clinton up.
And then a lot of people believe that he was going to actually do that.
And then he just didn't do it because like, obviously, that was just something he said to
get elected.
He didn't fucking believe it.
He didn't give a shit.
He doesn't care whether or not Hillary Clinton is actually arrested.
And he moved on and then, like,
like the MAGA base, in his experience,
like the MAGA base kind of also kind of forgot about it.
So he figured maybe this will be the same thing.
It was like, okay, maybe you all believed that like I would release the Epstein files.
But I'm just going to like say, shut the fuck up, move on.
I'm not really going to do that.
And he kind of like expects MAGA people to move on like they moved on from Hillary Clinton not being arrested.
But I don't know.
I think he may have made a miscalculation in this case.
Well, technically, Travis, actually, when when he didn't do anything about Hillary Clinton,
that's kind of what Qaeda was invented.
on was the fact that because Trump wasn't doing anything, you know, like they needed this
sort of like alternate story as to why.
So actually, MAGA didn't move on in a lot of ways.
I mean, now I think probably they have, especially as, you know, we talked about ad nauseum,
how QAnon is just sort of a bit absorbed into the muck.
I suppose, yeah, the most deranged conspiratorial online elements of MAGA, I suppose they
kept the faith and that's why they kind of disassociated in the form of QAnon.
Sure.
All of this because he never got an invite to Studio 54.
Like, the fucking moment in history in the 80s where Trump, like, was kind of qualified
as an annoying guy that maybe you just don't want it the party, that is the equivalent
to the art school turning down Hitler.
Like, we didn't know what we were doing.
We should have let him fucking hang out.
The problem with him is he's not chill.
He never wanted to fucking do the blow.
He's like, why don't I get invited into the bathroom stall?
Well, dude, it's because they're doing fun drugs and you are terrified of them because your brother was an alcoholic who, I can't remember, did he crash a plane?
Like, what did his dumbass brother do?
I mean, definitely died from like severe alcoholism.
I mean, I relate, but I do think like there's a moment in the 80s that is equivalent to the art school refusal.
Truth social users who responded to this post were not happy with it.
Here are a few ways that they responded.
Why did he kill himself?
Why is Galane Maxwell still in prison?
With all due respect, release everything with nothing left out other than the minor victim's names.
Every pedophile needs to be held accountable, castrated, and in prison.
We were promised on day one.
I support you and always have, but this is not going away until files are released.
Mr. President, we were promised everything was going to get exposed,
and the deep state thugs were going to get exposed.
I love when they do the Mr. President routine.
Mr. President, but you said, you said that you would do the thing, and you're not
doing it. These are the civilians, like, lining up at the end of Fable 3.
I haven't played it, but I'm sure that's a good reference.
Dude, it's like so, it's so funny. It's like, I was told that I could slip a piece of paper
into the comment box. I was told that my feedback was going to be taken into account.
You are a fucking moron. You have fallen for the most obvious con in history. Dumbass.
A third truth social user writes,
More gaslighting.
I thought you were above this.
You'll never hear the end of this if you do not instruct the complete release of the names of those in power in both D.C. and Hollywood who raped children.
Don't become part of the swamp that you fought so hard to defeat.
Hi, my name is Curtis Jackson, and you are gaslighting me?
You are a narcissist, and this is toxic?
Fuck you.
Now, there's some who are still holding the faith.
Roger Stone tried to absolve Cash Patel and the Trump administration by claiming without offering
any evidence that all of the evidence that could have possibly been used to compile a list of
people who were involved in Epstein's activity was destroyed by the previous administration.
Oh my God, dude.
I really wish that, like, fentanyl existed when Roger Stone was, like, doing so much blow.
I like and respect Cash Patel, and he's telling you the truth.
They don't have any proof because Christopher Ray and the priest.
previous administration destroyed all the truth. We know, because we can see with our eyes,
that they removed hard drives and DVDs from Epstein's apartment in New York, from his island,
from his ranch in New Mexico, from his apartment in Paris. And the question is a simple one.
I never thought there was a list per se, but I think a list could have been compiled
on the basis of those videos contained in the DVDs
and the hard drives.
So what happened to them?
When Cash Patel says we don't have them,
he's telling the truth
because they were destroyed
by the previous administration.
Thank you, Jimmy Seville,
with less fucking charisma.
Thank you for your contribution.
Really interesting.
I mean, this is obviously bullshit,
but it's like, oh, it's like,
if you really believe that,
okay, then why don't you, like,
prosecute the people
evidence of this massive scandal.
And there's like, that's still a, still a crime you could pursue if you can prove it.
It's a pretty weak sauce.
Bro, like, Roger Stone, like, listen, I'm sex positive.
I encourage perverts.
They're great.
This guy needs to be put in jail.
This guy is the wrong type of sex guy.
And listening to him, the fact that we still have to listen to him, like, bro, you're
like Pinocchio, if Pinocchio were a pedophile.
You were put together to be grotesque.
I checked in on how the QAnon community was handling it.
And, you know, like Jake Bession, this community basically was formed because Trump wasn't fulfilling all the promises of his campaign, specifically about, like, you know, draining the swamp and arresting Hillary Clinton and all that stuff.
So, yeah, of course, they're still, they're still trusting the plan.
It's so, it's so funny in retrospect to see QAnon as, like, cope because the guy they liked was a pedophile and they just couldn't accept it.
Really sad, dude.
Jordan Saither said this.
Without Trump, 95% of us wouldn't know who Jeffrey Epstein is,
and he never would have been arrested in the first place.
So I'm willing to give some grace to see how this all plays out.
Chess, not checkers.
Bro, yeah, without Trump, we wouldn't have photos of Jeffrey Epstein.
Are you fucking dumb?
I mean, he is.
Yeah.
This is truly pathetic.
Perhaps the most infuriating response, at least for me, of Q&ON,
is that they imply that all of this is a ployed to get more.
are people interested in the Epstein case.
I don't understand this response.
Why more chatter?
Why more response?
Why more posting?
Don't you want to see action?
Don't you want to see something actually substantive beyond awareness?
Fucking Coney 2012.
You are all soy lib.
Coney 2012 fucking I hate you.
X-22 report said this.
The Epstein files are far from over.
Trump has more people than ever talking about it.
No, he doesn't.
He literally said like, are you still talking about this?
If any of this was remotely true, Trump would be like, I suppose a lot of people are talking about it.
That's good.
We want people talking.
Like, it just, no.
Oh, hey, I am a, I'm raising awareness about pedophilia by having sex with children.
They're getting, yeah, they're just.
Oh, thank you so much.
Wow.
You are, you are really good as a person.
They continue.
There are over 275,000 posts involving Epstein in the past week.
Do you see it?
Now it would be a perfect time for QAnon to come back.
by the way, to again rescue the image of the president who proves more and more and more
that he is part of the deep state, that he refuses to shed light on Jeffrey Epstein's
infamous clients, and just about everything else he promised.
It's like X-22 sounding a lot like the killer in Manhunt or Manhunter, you know, he's like,
do you see?
Do you see?
No, he's just doing like boring fascism, you know, boring fascism.
It's not even dressed in like the fun Tom Clancy stuff anymore.
He's completely ignoring.
Yeah, there's no more carrot.
There's no more carrot.
Yeah, there's just the stick.
Yeah, now that he's...
My lord.
Yeah, now that he's in there, now that he got in, he's not going to do jack shit.
He's not going to do jack shit.
For the people who got him there, which I believe are the crypto, the crypto bros and, you know, the lingering Qaeda adherence.
Like, Trump wouldn't flick a Cheeto in the direction of these guys if they were starving at the side of the street.
He hates you.
He thinks you are nothing.
The situation is reportedly causing strife at the DOJ.
Oh, my God.
Washington Post sources, say Attorney General Pam Bondi, FBI director Cash Patel,
and deputy director Dan Bongino had all signed off on the two-page memo.
But once pro-Trump pundits revolted,
Bonino began trying to distance himself prompting a blame game.
Axios first reported that Bongino and Bondi had a heated face-to-face meeting,
which another report described as a screaming match,
in which Bongino accused Bondi of over-promising disclosures.
Bonino reportedly took a day off after this meeting.
Sources told CNN that Bonino was even considering resigning over the issue.
You know, here's the thing.
I was like, I know that like these fucking these like insider leaks to these report, these, these outlets of it's like narrative shaping.
Yeah, it's a bullshit.
Yeah.
This is bullshit.
I think it might be true, but not because like Bonino is morally outraged, but because it hurt his brand.
Oh, for sure.
It's like he is, he kind of envisioned like, like, okay, here's a way to boost his media career.
He's going after after he's done with this, he's going to go back to podcasting, having even more credibility and a bigger audience and like, you know, do wing on his mansion.
He's going to do great.
But it's like if he's like saddled with like being the guy who helped cover up for Epstein, then that's going to be harder sell once he gets back into being a media pundit.
Damn, I signed up to do PR for the evil pedophile empire and now it's like not cool.
Wow.
Wait, is this the end?
Yeah, yeah.
Oh my God, this episode.
Yeah, that's it.
That's the end.
That's it.
It just stops.
It just ends.
Yep, that's it.
Like, it just goes silent.
You just like life.
Yeah, just like my soul.
We need another Mohammed Atta.
We need to fly planes into these motherfuckers.
Oh, my Lord.
Somebody come get this guy.
I know, right?
I mean, I will see.
You know, it might be the case that, like, the MAGA people will, like, come back into
the fold eventually because they have nowhere else to go.
But they seem pretty riled up and it's pretty widespread.
So this may be the thing that, like, fractures Trump's base pretty significantly.
We'll see.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, if he doesn't find some way to write this or at the very least, like, come up with
a good distraction, another Q&On run, most likely, I really can't see him recovering from
this.
This is, like, kind of the main thing that people are talking about is that Trump is fighting
the deep state, and he's visibly not.
He's actually visibly covering up for them to the point where, even if he's, you know,
even his most loyal pundits, like, know that their audience isn't stupid enough that they can sell
this to them the way that the administration is trying to sell this to the American people.
Like, the guys who fucking make money creating content over this know that their audience isn't
as stupid as their own fucking government, you know, who they put in power believes that they
are. It's fantastically dumb and infuriating.
I think people will sit down and they will eat the slop that they are fucking given.
they are Olympic champions in cognitive dissonance at this point.
That is the only muscle that is being exercised anymore.
So yeah, I actually don't think this will end anything
because nothing had ever started.
You can't end something that never occurred.
All of this is a dream.
All right.
So, I mean, unfortunately, Julian has left this
because he's entered his dream space.
I'm like that really annoying Zelda game
where at the end it's like, oh, I woke up.
Then why did I?
I have to fucking fight those bosses.

Guys, have you ever stopped in thought for one moment?
By them saying there is no list, is it possible that they're making all these people think they got by scot-free?
So that they can set them up for the great fall, trust the president.
I mean, my God, this is the man that God saved his life one year.
ago from a bullet, don't you think God appointed him then leave him alone. Some of y'all act like
you're so smart because you listen to a few podcasters. And the only problem is them podcasters
and lied to you so many times you're addicted to their lies. Just quit. Donald Trump is the
American president. You voted for him. You did. Now sit back and let the man be the president.
I'm going to be able to be.
