howdy everybody welcome back happy skews day to you it's uh the odds of april less little less
heralded than the preceding ides are but still you know odds all the same Tuesday
april 15th 2025 as you are sitting down to watch this however as mark and i sit down to record
this as we pre-record now it's uh monday april 14th at 2.24 p.m. on the left coast so
So I let you know where we're at in the universe as we send this missive out to you across the digital ather.
I'm trying to.
That's Mark.
How's it going, Mark?
Good.
Not as you mentioned, it is a little weird that March is the only month with Ides.
Well, it's, you know, it's because they killed Caesar that day.
But, you know, Caesar who now hits for all Republicans and stuff, except for the being murdered by people part.
I guess they conveniently leave that part out.
But, yeah, no, they, I'm sure you probably know this, but they, in those days, they called,
Iads was one of their words for how dates worked,
and it was the midpoint of every moon cycle or whatever, you know.
And so that's why the Iads meant the 15th of the midpoint of the month.
And Iads of March is the only when it stuck around because of old Billy Shakespeare and his whole thing.
Yeah.
It's weirdly you think about like all the things,
like we lost entire like entire vocabulary as once we invented electric light.
Yeah.
Like the moon cycle doesn't matter anymore.
So, uh, uh, we're talking about, um, uh, uh,
some immigration stuff in El Salvador and then
RFK juniors at continuing efforts
to give everyone measles. Before we get
the show, I wanted to talk about a couple little
fun bits from our dystopia. There's a big UFC fight
on Saturday night. Donald Trump was in attendance.
Shaquille O'Neal gave him a big hug. That was sweet.
The title,
the main fight featured
Bryce Mitchell, who's a guy who says
Hitler was just a patriot who loved his country
and declared he'd take a bullet and die for Donald Trump
got his ass fucking beat and shooked out in front of the president.
Yeah, no, I don't know anything about that guy.
I haven't watched UFC since I was in college
and shaved my chin strap beard off and left UFC behind me at that moment.
So I don't know who this dude is or anything about him,
but it was near the top of Reddit, of course,
because they were dunking on him for having getting his ass whipped.
And then I gathered the context through the comments and stuff
that that was, you know, Hitler hits for him.
There goes, so was Donald Trump.
And so, yeah, I don't know anything about him, but I'm glad he got smoked.
Here's the plot twist there, the punchline.
Ted Cruz is in attendance rooting for Bryce Mitchell, I assume.
So the Ted Cruz sports jinx now almost has a fatality attached to it.
Right.
Are you like, you should track this, Mark.
You should have like a spreadsheet or something for this because it's getting kind of eerie at this point.
I mean, it's, what are we up to now?
It's a lot.
And it's like, I joke around with my first.
friends and stuff about me.
I hate to associate anything about myself with Ted Cruz,
but I feel cursed sports-wise.
But he's a, I mean, he's, like, for example, I literally went to Knoxville for less
than 24 hours this year.
And when I was there, our, our quarterback left the team unexpectedly.
So I came into town.
That happened.
I left.
Now they're repairing everything.
But anyway, Ted Cruz, yeah, he's like, he's got a very impressive batting average with
not hitting at sports events.
Yeah.
I mean, he was at the NCAA basketball championship
a couple of weeks to go rooting for Houston.
We all know how that ended.
So, yeah, like, if you want to, like,
I wondered how much money you could make
if you just bet against every team
that Ted Cruz was rooting for at a sporting event he intended.
So one more thing we'll get the show.
I got a new guy for you, Trey.
His name's Kyle, I'm going to pronounce his last name,
Dike, I don't actually know how to say it, D-U-Y-C-K.
He's running.
Yeah, there you go.
Kyle, D-O-E-K.
he's running for governor of Oregon, obviously, as a Republican.
He calls himself the presumptive nominee because no one else is running yet because
the election is until the end of next year.
So he gave his brother a window decal for his gubernatorial campaign.
His brother punched him in the face, which he called the deep was because of the
deep state mind virus.
He was being brain control.
He got M.K.
Uttred to punch his brother in the face for running for governor and giving him a sticker.
He compared his brother to the Trump shooter in a, in a, in a,
in Pennsylvania.
And speaking of the deep state,
he seems to think the deep state
is censoring his LinkedIn post.
If you've got this screen,
go ahead,
that shows like he's not getting
any notifications of LinkedIn,
so obviously it's the CIA out to get him.
Again, he's just some guy running for governor of Ohio
and guaranteed to lose.
Ohio or Oregon?
You said Oregon.
Oregon,
Oregon, yeah.
Oregon, yeah.
So I know you already said,
he calls himself a presumptive nominee
and it's far off and nobody else is even running yet.
And in past eras,
I wouldn't have even felt the need to ask
this question. But is this like, is this one of those like cokey early on candidates that's a full
blown lunatic and isn't going to go anywhere? Or is this actually going to be the GOP nominee for
governor in Oregon? And also I know that that might be kind of a shit show in its own way because
they may not have a shot or whatever. But like is he going to be the guy? The current governor
is Democrat obviously because it's Oregon. But she only won by like three or four percent last time.
And she's had some scandals. Her wife like was caught up in some sort of like stat like the like her
wife has too big of a staff or something, I don't really understand. It's not, it's one of those
stupid, in a Trump era of that being a scandal that the governor's wife has a little bit too
much say so, feels like very quaint. But anyway, who knows? But I seriously doubt he'll be
the nominee, although Dyke is from like a pretty rich, powerful family. So they could probably
take this a pretty long way. I just seriously doubt the Republicans let him win. But again,
who knows? So whoever he put in charge, speaking of, this is a very window decal-based campaign.
the person was in charge of securing his window decal
so he calls his custodian for campaign accounts
he says went missing in Europe
so he packed the backpack to go to Europe
and track them down with some sort of like
Jason Boor mission like
in his head he's Liam Neeson from the
he's one of those guys he watches the
take of movies he's like I can do that
I can do that guy I also have a particular set of skills
yeah
his campaign platform
if you're wondering is zero tolerance for pedophiles
so uh finally somebody says it
We got to put all those people
Who run on some tolerance for
Predophiles, yeah
Finally, someone has the courage
To put their foot down
In opposition to pedophiles
Yeah
A hero
Yeah, he's a real ideas guy
One of his other big campaign issues
If you got he posted about this
He's talking about
Establishing the Future Robotics Division
of the state of Oregon
With a mission to tackle forest cleanup
And critical step in wildlife prevention
Because he's robots to clean up the forest
to stop wildfires, but also he's going to issue a robot to every child in foster care to
protect them, I guess, from the pedophiles he's going to have zero tolerance for.
So he's going to issue every child in foster care, a T-1,000 instead of, you know, letting
gay people adopt them or whatever.
I don't know.
I literally let robots have kids before they let gay people have kids.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's hilarious.
Well, producer Matt is back there doing his thing.
It's funny you bring up Oregon.
because it's related to where I'm going.

outbreaks and r fk junior it's like it's like assigning alex jones to clean up america's disinformation
problem you know so r fk junior to fix a measles outbreak we'll get in all that a little bit later
but first the daily dumb ass mac graphic please tonight's dd the supreme court clerk who
forgot the White House owns a
the thesaurus.
One quick, President of El Salvador
is coming to the White House on Monday.
Does President Trump want him to bring
Hamar Abrego Garcia with him?
The Supreme Court made their
ruling last night very clear
that it's the administration's
responsibility to facilitate
the return, not to effectuate
the return. I believe the Department of Justice
just filed another brief in the lower
court. I would refer you to that.
All right, you kind of up.
So if you want to know,
I want to know how a republic dies.
The difference between a, was a facilitate versus effectually.
Yeah.
As a Republic die while lawyers argue over semantics in court, over verbiage, yes, whilst people die in the street.
Or in the fucking Central American Azcaban, as the case may be with this guy, Mr. Abrago-Garcia.
Yeah.
We've created a legal, a shadow realm where no one exists but also is imprisoned at the same.
time. So I want to talk about
Kilmore Obrigo Garcia for a second.
People are finally
starting to make noise about this, which they should have been doing
for a month, but whatever, two lights
better than never. Kilmore
fled El Salvador as a teenager back in 2011.
He came here to avoid being
forced to join MS-13 at gunpoint. And he's now been
sent back for being affiliated with MS-13.
If you're wondering how fucking twisted this whole
thing is he has protected status he's like once he got here he tried to do he tried to go
through the process to get to do things the quote unquote right way what everyone thinks that is
he has a work permit he also has a wife and three kids who are all u.s citizens he lives in
Maryland he works and he's a member of building trade union has a job pays a taxes all this
shit and for I want to I want to emphasize the his wife's the U.S. citizen thing for a second
because like everyone seems to think if you're a U.S. citizen you get to you're a citizen now
And that is not true.
Everyone thinks that because of sitcoms and movie premises.
And 90-die fiancé or whatever.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yes.
It in some ways makes it somewhat easier.
But in reality, there's a recent Supreme Court case about this where a woman married a guy who was going through the right process and he had to fly back to Central America to renew his visa at the embassy there because it's a process.
And then he couldn't get back in the country and they wouldn't even say why.
So his wife had to file a lawsuit.
to be like, can you let's just tell me why it went to the Supreme Court?
And it turned out to be because some guy at the embassy thought he had weird tattoos.
He had a tattoo of, I think, Sigmund Freud.
What does that stand for?
Because a lot of this discourse centers on tattoo.
That's part of the answer in the video I made about this.
It's like, it's funny you got, you know you got rednecks all around this country
who would like very proudly show off their badass new, like Grim Reaper with a flamethrower
in front of the Confederate flag chest pants they just got.
talking unironically about how like well only violent gang members get tattoos like this everybody
knows it you know what I mean like you can't no normal person has tattoos like that yeah anyway
here's the shadow of death on my shoulder but um yeah a lot of tattoo talk right but the sigman
Freud tattoo means he's in trend day or whatever so he can't get back in the country and his
wife's like but we're married we have a right to have a constitutional right to marriage and they're
like yes but you don't have a right to live in america as a married person so basically
instead of like people think you marry someone
that gives them U.S. citizenship gives them rights
but in reality what does is take away rights
from the person who married them.
Yeah.
Okay.
Ain't that America.
Right.
Is there any,
I know I'm saying all of this is,
but is there like it would,
so is there any basis whatsoever for that whole
Sigman Freud trend day or rog?
Like is Sigmund Freud a mascot they've adopted?
No.
Okay, I'm about to say, why would they,
what's that kind of make sense of it?
They all want to fuck their moms or something over there.
They all love cigars and dicks
and stuff and cocaine and saying wild shit and dreams and stuff like that.
They're just evil.
It's a pretext.
Yeah, right.
That's all you mean.
So Kilmar got stopped by ICE picked up and shipped at Texas then El Salvador.
And his poor wife didn't even know he was deported until she saw him on the news having his head forcibly shaved in El Salvador.
Okay.
The government has admitted that his deportation was a procedural error.
It was a mistake.
Yeah.
I kind of can't believe that part of all this.
to me. That's how sad that the state of everything is right now is, like, the part of this I'm most genuinely shocked by is the part where they have acknowledged that this wasn't correct, that they fucked up.
You know what I mean? Because it makes it even more, to use our parlance, Raven, like, they do admit it's fucked up, but still are not at all going to fix it. Like, it almost makes it worse. It makes it more of like a fuck you or more in your faces. They're like, no, yeah, you're out. He did nothing wrong at all. We definitely shouldn't have done that. I mean, we're going to let him rot there. Don't get me wrong.
But, yeah, our bad.
Yeah.
Like, just lie about it all, I guess, if you're going to fucking be, I feel like for years, if
governments were going to shadowy government.
Like, I feel like Vladimir Putin, we defenestrates people.
He, like, disappears people all the time.
Like, he at least has the decency to lie and tell everybody that he didn't do that.
You know what I mean?
And, of course, we all know that he did.
But he's like, I would never do that.
But we're just, but this government is just like, yeah, we did that.
That's, yeah, their official position over accidentally sending a guy who everyone
to Greece should still be in the United States to El Salvador to be slaved to death in a gulag
is Pobody's Nerfect.
Exactly, right.
Yes, exactly.
They're like, what are you going to do?
I said this too in the video.
It's like, you know, if you want to make a fucking autocratic ethno state omelet, you got to crack a few, you know, innocent, marginalized eggs.
And it happens.
This just happens.
It's like, but this ain't an egg.
This is a real person.
Like this, it shouldn't happen.
Because that's what a lot of arguments are for people who they literally, they're like, look.
any, I mean, the fucking, the president of El Salvador himself said a version of he was like, if you want to liberate hundreds of millions of people, you're going to have to lock up a few regular ones or whatever.
And it's like, no, you don't. You shouldn't have to. Like, I don't accept that. There's all these people who say, like, any big, any like undertaking this large, there'll be collateral damage like this. It's just like the, it's just how things work. And it's like, but that, but that's unacceptable, though. Like, it's not, like, I'm not okay with that. That doesn't, it's wild to me that it just.
It justifies it to so many people, but yeah, it's just ridiculous.
We could do a whole episode on Buckelly's whole thing, but like, first of all, he ran as a leftist.
He's governed like a right-wing dictator.
He pivoted the whole economy being based on Bitcoin, even though none of his people even have banks.
And now he's, they did have an extremely high murder rate, which has come way down under his presidency, but because he, like, held a summit where he negotiated with gangs, and then he locked up between one and two percent of his entire country's population.
Okay.
So the idea that this is some sort of model we should follow was his economy is collapsing.
Like he is popular somehow because, again, we have a murder rate of 38 per thousand and get it down to 2 per thousand.
People are going to be happy about that because there's less chance of getting murdered.
But I'd say, let's just say I disagree with his methods, all right?
Which is one of those things where it's like, I don't know, but there's probably people in El Salvador that are like, listen, this was murder was through the roof.
It was insane.
It was dangerous here.
And he's like, he cleaned that up.
And sure, you know, maybe, again, there was some collateral damage.
few innocent people like went down too but like overall it's better for everybody and it's like
it's easy to say because you just assume it ain't ever going to be you you know what I mean that's
it's like a lot of people are like willing to take that risk because they're just taking it for
granted like if a couple innocent people got to go down to make this for the greater good thing
happen that's fine with me because I know it'll never be me but you shouldn't like assume that
especially if you're in El Salvador or I mean hell even in this fucking country you know like
it could be you one day people don't ever think about it that way
yeah so bekelly was in the white house today and uh he said basically trump before the white house press pool was escorted in el salvador in media filmed trump whispering to him he needs to both five more prisons because they're going to start shipping americans soon right okay exactly there it is but again all the like good maga people hear that and they're like good again don't mean me it never means me you know uh no matter who you are but like you should at least that again this is what empathy is imagining that it might mean you and how that would make you feel but you know uh
they don't do that anyway.
Yeah, but you mentioned, I do want to say you mentioned, like, how he brags about it,
where Putin even, like, does either the cert, has the virtue to lie about it.
Like, like, you want to compare it to something like Abu Ghraib.
They said Abu Ghraib was embarrassing.
The administration tried to cover it up.
Right.
Like, this is, anyway.
So the Supreme Court decision, like, like, to quote, like Caroline Levitt said,
held that the government must facilitate Abraga Garcia's released from custody in El Salvador and return to the United States.
The decision was unanimous.
Clarence Thomas voted for this motherfucker.
But at the same time, Supreme Court said the government cannot be ordered to effectuate his return out of respect for, like, presidential powers over foreign policy.
Basically, they're saying, like, they're basically saying, well, we can't order the executive branch to invade El Salvador to rescue this guy.
Right.
But like, but so, but they're doing this like busy work thing where they're saying the government can be forced to send him back, but it can be forced to try to get him to come back somehow.
But what happens if the government says it tried and didn't?
What do you do that?
yeah well that's all they have to do is just say well we try because it's like there's like
you have to try but obviously you can't force we're not saying that they just be like well
we tried it didn't work and then it's like okay well i guess that's that's that everybody with
the brain fucking knows that el salvador we're paying them to take these people and everything
like if all it would take is a fucking phone call if they just wanted to make it happen he could
have got on the plane with bukelly right i mean it's like it you i don't know it's like
willful ignorance to act like,
they could try, but it doesn't mean they could make it happen.
It's like the only way they couldn't make it happen if they wanted to make it happen,
the only way that would be like literally true is if like he is dead already or something like that.
There's no way to bring him back.
Otherwise, if they wanted to make it happen, they fucking could.
Like, but they're just not.
Yeah.
I can't really think of a political reason not to because it's like, anyway, they're just like,
they're just like slapping their dick in everyone's face just to do it.
But so, like, but they're basically, the administration's position is of their understanding of the way they're presenting their understanding of the Supreme Court decision is if he can get, if, if, if, if, uh, Barrio Garcia can get back to the United States, they have to let him in, but they don't have to do anything other than that. So basically, if you bust out of prison and hitchhicks El Paso, right, he's fine.
If he does what Batman did and the dark night rises and gets out of that bane, which even for the record, even for Batman, people.
people were pissed off that that movie skipped over how he did that.
Like, there were people that were like, it just kind of doesn't make sense that he was able to do that the way that he did and that amount of time.
And he's fucking Batman.
And we want a, you know, a guy from just a father of, you know, of a five-year-old husband and father from Maryland to do some Batman shit.
And then it can earn his freedom.
Yeah.
I mean, like, like the idea here, like, just to know about how we're all dying of law, you're bringing for a second.
Like, Supreme Court doing all these, like, thought experiments about constitutional law.
while like playing word games over what facilitate means
while people work to death in a slade prison
The Supreme Court's basic position is one president
wildly exceeded his authority by forgiving some student loans
A different president has barely scratched the service of his authority
By disappearing anyone he pleases without trial to a foreign gulag
And we're supposed to believe the constitutional law is serious
And like, tell me about it, I know
That's what I've been saying since the beginning of all this wild shit they've been doing
I was like well how to fuck why I'm my whole life in this country
anytime any president like Joe Biden tries to do something that will help people like forgive student loan debt immediately we hear the court the
some court somewhere that matters just the courts pop up and they're like well he doesn't have the power to do that and this is you know the system has checks and balances and the president can't just do that so I'm sorry we can't let it happen as we try the president tries to do something that'll help people but he's this motherfucker's out here just disappearing innocent people willy-nilly for no reason and they're like you know well
who's really to say certainly not us you know we're not it's it's it's it's it's it's hazy it could be within
his purview it's like it's just like everything's ridiculous like all these like metaphysical thought
experiments like think about this in terms of any other profession right like certainly there
are medical researchers to think about things the abstract but if you go to a hospital with
arteria bleeding and you're like hmm what is the nature of blood you're like can a motherfucker can
have a tourniquet like what do you like this whole this whole thing like you pointed out like they're
pretending like they can't make Buckelly do stuff when he's their fucking employee.
And like, like, like, the idea that like, well, there's one thing, uh,
who's awesome power Republican president's respect and are powerless in the face of,
it's a central American nation's national sovereignty where it's a fucking, they just said
yesterday that they're going to seize Panama.
Right.
Panama, Greenland, Canada.
But this whole time, it's just like, we, you know, we're just going to go take it.
We just, fuck what the people there want or the government there wants or whatever.
It's like, we're just going to manifest destiny.
if we want to. That's what America does. And they'll thank us for it later.
But yeah, the idea that they're like, well, we can't step on El Salvador's toes.
I mean, they can't even ask them for a favor. We're paying $6 million to do this.
Right.
So we're about to find out if it's legal to somehow, like, a constructively detain someone.
Like, in a rude Goldberg machine designs they cannot fall for relief because as soon as you get somebody out of the country,
there's no, no court has any jurisdiction anymore. It's fucking done.
Right. So all you got to do, if somebody does some shit you don't like, like if this all holds up,
somebody does some shit you don't like hypothetically you can just like point at them and call him a gang member or they got fucking whatever criminal ties and then ship them off to fucking again central american askabander just out of the country and then later you can be like it turns out he wasn't a gang member but we thought he was and now that he's there there's really just nothing we can do about it like now that he's gotten there our hands are tied so unfortunately he's going to have to work himself to death while half naked every day
for the next 30 years or until, unless he expires beforehand.
Yeah.
Well, you don't do.
Yeah.
And just today, the administration snatched up a Palestinian Buddhist peace activist and
another Palestinian guy who was literally in the middle of his naturalization ceremony to be a citizen when they arrested him.
Jesus.
So, by the way, they do say Kilmar is alive.
They say it.
So there's that.
But I feel like you're, I feel like you're Kilmar-Margo-Garcia legal filing is,
raising a lot of questions not answered by your actual proof of life a proof of life video
can we get a video of him holding today's newspaper right without a proof of life it's like
it's like and i said this in the video too it's like you're really going to hit us with the like
oh no he's at a farm up state that thing you know what it's like we're not fucking six years old
without some kind of proof this seems very shady and you know it right well i mean okay
since we're just on that like i know you have no way of knowing but do because i've
seen people say it's like the only two ways this really makes any sense but i guess there's
a third and the third is just because fuck you that's why which is a
administration does love that i acknowledge it but the first two are if he is already dead and they
know that and they're like we can't you know we got to somehow cover that up hope people forget
and move on like they always do or like you said there's no political reason not to do it if or that
they're like well if he if we bring him back it's just going to get 10 times worse for us because
he'll talk about how shitty it was or something like that would be a surprise to anybody but like
which of those like what do you think is what do you think is
What, if you got gunned to your head, like, he's probably got, what, uh, what would you,
what do you think the most likely scenario? Like, do you think he's dead already? Or do you
think they're just like, nah, fuck y'all. We don't give a shit. And I don't, I don't want
to guess, man. I hope he's not. Like, yeah, I hope, I hope not him are, man. We'll be fucking,
uh, uh, uh, close this goddamn prison, uh, and get a fuck to fuck on these people back.
They would, like, like, people, everyone's focused on Kilmore. And I get it. He's a
wildly sympathetic case. But like, there's other examples.
two of people who are there for no reason.
There's like a 19-year-old, like, who got snatched up and sent there, like, even
though, like, the ICE agents knew they had the wrong guy.
And what I'm told the other one and said, fuck it, take him anyway.
Like, so.
Jesus Christ.
Is that the gay hairdresser kid or is that a different?
Because I saw a gay hairdresser.
This one's gay, too, but it's a different guy, not the hairdresser.
So this is an environment, by the way, where this happened recently where a guy that worked at
the Social Security Administration was dragged out of his office by security for refusing to comply
with like a doge effort to have six six thousand one hundred uh living immigrants declared dead
by the social security system um to stop their payments is that why or well it stops them from
paying taxes they don't get social security oh right yeah right it's all things so stupid so like
but if they but if you can just click a button to declare somebody dead dead people don't have any
rights as anyone who's tried to pay a dead relatives like credit cards and shit off nose like
it's hard very hard to do so like no one
who's dead as a citizen.
There's nothing to stop them from doing that to me and you or whoever.
And they just click the dead button on your social security number and your passport and fucking
shit you off.
How's a dead person filed a lawsuit?
We talk all the time whenever it comes up about how like the stock market and all this
money and wealth that trades hands.
It's like it's just numbers on a spreadsheet.
In reality, like it's ethereal and barely even real.
And it's like people know that or think about that.
But like the idea that your citizenship or who you are as a person, your identity.
all that is that also kind of applies like you said people with the right position with the right
you know admin access can just click a button and delete your fucking again have you rendered dead
or delete your social or whatever they do and then like legally you don't exist after that so
fucking then what happens you know i don't know a state a state's never had any interest in my
lifetime of not the american state any way of having like a bunch of living people just declared dead
I don't know what happens after that
But anyway, maybe they fucked up by saying
Obrigo Garcia was alive and they could have just clicked the dead box
Yeah
Yeah
So again, sorry to do this to you again, but whether
Whatever the case is with him like what I mean like what comes next with this?
Like you said earlier, I can remember if we had started yet or if we just
Yeah, we you were like people actually are talking about this now
Like it seems like it's building momentum you'd like to I know it's like in this country
Since in the Trump era it's just been a day.
lose of bullshit after bullshit and stuff gets lost in the shuffle all the time, stuff
that would have crippled in the other administration?
You think that's what's going to happen here?
And then he'll just be forgotten, basically, except for a handful of people who care.
Well, like what?
I saw some actual Democratic politicians starting to make noise.
And I've seen some people say stuff that rallies about it.
As far as official action, Richie Torres followed a law.
And not a huge man of Richie Torres for a lot of reasons we don't get into in this context.
But in this issue, it's a good step.
Senator Chris Van Hollen from Maryland is saying he's going to El
Salvador to inspect the prison and try to look for uh kilmore so hopefully it turns into a big
congressional delegation that takes cameras with them and stuff but what happens if bukelly doesn't let
them in um there's uh the the uh kill like i mentioned kilmore as a member of the building
trade union uh they had a big national meeting where the president of the building trade union
gave a fucking fire and brimstone speech about how we're not blue we're not red but bring our
union bring our fucking union brother home so i got a stand in ovation for that too yeah yeah so like
that's incur like it's weird that that this guy
who leads a MAGAE building union
has more
passion to bring this immigrant
home than
Well, that's part of the strength of unions, buddy.
You know what I mean?
Like, that's part of the reason
why unions are so important
is because that, like,
that is above any other classification.
He calls him brother in the speech
you're talking about that he gets,
because he's like it is.
When this union, we're all brothers,
our brother's being fucked over right now,
we don't stand for that type of shit.
And that's, you know,
that's kind of the whole thing.
Solidarity, baby.
Imagine it.
Ape together strong.
Ape together strong.
That's the whole point of unions.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, I don't know, man.
We'll see how that all plays out.
I got my fingers crossed for him.
I don't.
I wouldn't say I'm optimistic, but it's very fucked up.
But we got other fucked up stuff to talk about.
First honorable mention for Daily Dumbass is Gretchen Whitmer's staff for providing the perfect image to show why politicians should fire all of their consultants.
show this picture here.
Scratch and Whitmer in the White House,
or the Oval Office in particular,
because she went to talk about tariffs.
Is that where she was there?
I don't know what,
so she's covering her face with file fold
and she's trying to keep her picture of being taken.
So Whitmer,
this is really one of those record scratch.
You might have wondered how I got here.
Yep, that's me.
You might be wondering how I got here.
So she was invited to the,
she went with the Republican State House leader or whatever
to the White House,
talk about, I don't know, some trade shit or
whatever. She thought she's going to her private meeting with Trump, but he
pulled into the White House for a photo op where she had to stand beside him where he signed
executive orders, ordered the Justice Department to harass two guys, okay, who used to work
for him. That's on Constitution, too. We don't have time to get into that. So then this is
all, this is happening because they have, Democrats have not figured a way to talk about tariffs
in the way that isn't milk toast and weird. And I think it's, like, it's because they're
trying to say stuff that makes everybody happy, doesn't make anybody mad. And you quite honestly
can't fucking do that. And you just really
no need to do that in this situation.
So Whitmer was asked about Trump's tariffs
and she said, quote, I haven't
looked into them. And I got to say
this, ma'am, your state borders Canada
and has Detroit in it, I do not fucking believe
you. My, and I can't remember if this is a call
back to our bonus episode or last
week's episode, but ma'am, my middle
school sons have looked into
tariffs. Right.
The Tendor switch is delayed. Yeah.
Right. Yeah. Like
if you haven't, that's
frankly, a dereliction of duty, you know, if you haven't looked into it. And I don't believe
that either. So they're trying to do it. Unions like tariffs, and I get why, right? And the
point here is not that all tariffs are always bad. It's just like, this is not, this is not,
this is not tariffs, basically. This is something more akin to like someone doing a naval
blockade on their own economy. So you do have to talk in a framework of normal tariffs.
And it's like, but Democrats are just going to the motion of normal politics where, like,
Whitmer has to be like kind of pro-tariff to keep the auto unions happy.
We're also saying we got to, these tariffs are unreasonable to try to keep the auto executives happy.
Elisa Slotkin's trying to ban Chinese cars.
And so that's where you're seeing every Democratic politician start, pretty much a lot of them start their tariff discussion with a preamble.
While I agree with the president that we need to own shore America, just shut the fuck up.
You don't have to do that because none of this is going to lead to his stated goals.
Right.
This isn't how you do any of that.
He's not doing that.
He's doing, he's fucking making the market go up.
down so you can like profit off like doing short line long positions yeah i mean i don't
understand why they can't just basically frame it the way you just framed it a minute ago like when
you first started this you were like this is look i'm not saying all tariffs are bad i'm just
saying like this is this is stupid and here are the reasons why this is stupid like this specific
example this specific scenario is bad and dumb and here's why it's not about the i the concept
of tariffs or whatever it takes a lot of boring policy homework to making any of this shit work
and this is an administration that spit out the terror formula from chat GPT.
They're not going to fucking do that homework.
So you just don't have to, like, by the end of this ruse,
I remember this piece from 2022 back when coming out of COVID supply chain bullshit.
And like, I wouldn't look it up because I wanted to try to explain, like, here's the question.
Like, this is a byproduct of like all politicians thinking that voters are morons who can't
understand or learn anything.
Republicans think that's good.
And Democrats think the problem has to be worked around, right?
Right.
But people are already horrifically backlash against this tariff policy because they understand intuitively that it's just stupid and chaotic and doesn't work.
This is basically like this tariff regime is basically like if you're playing a football game and all of a sudden in the second quarter the rules are changed to where now it's three downs to get 12 yards and Phil goes are worth four points.
Everybody's trying to figure out the coaches and players trying to figure out how the strategies change.
I guess we need to pass more people that are betting on the game trying to rejigger the over and under.
None of it makes any sense.
It's not going to work, especially when the rules go back.
being what they used to be in the third and fourth court.
So like, so like, let me, let me, let me, and you tell me if you think you could trust
the Trump administration to solve this problem, okay?
This started, this article started with an anecdote about how a company that makes like gummy bears
was having trouble acquiring gelatin, so they couldn't make their gummy bears.
The reason they're in, uh, trouble acquiring gelatin was because far less, far fewer hogs
are being slaughtered.
So there's less gelatin going at its supply chain from the sloth.
of hogs.
The reason
fewer hogs are
being slaughtered
is because there's
less demand
for hogskin
to make leather
car seats.
There were
fewer cars being
manufactured
because of a
shortage of
microchips.
Okay?
So,
do you trust
the administration
to figure that out?
No, I don't
trust myself to
figure that out.
I got confused
halfway through that.
I know for damn
true the fucking
Trump administration.
It's like,
I mean,
you said,
you had another
example in one of
our last
episodes about the
terrace where it's like,
Like, through this, like, the way things work in the supply chain, you get in this circular position where it's like the first step a new American factory would need to do would be to build a robot that builds its own shit that then it makes in the, it's like it doesn't, you know, it just doesn't, it doesn't work.
Like, you just follow every step, step backwards and you're like, this is incredibly complicated and we're probably not going to be able to figure it at.
We, meaning this administration, and certainly not quickly, regardless.
It would take generations.
And we're trying to do it in two weeks by committing economic suicide, hoping the rest of the world saves us from ourselves.
All right.
So before we get to the main segment, I want to talk about some formal polling here.
Here's some polling from the Kato Institute from a couple days ago.
First question, America will be better off if more people worked in manufacturing.
80% of Americans agree, 20% disagree.
Second question, I will be better off if I worked in a factory.
25% of Americans agree, 73% disagree.
It goes back to what we were saying earlier.
Go ahead.
go ahead. I don't mean to step on you. I know what you're about to say.
Yeah, it's basically like, we had, we'd be better off.
We had factories. I don't want to work there. You go work there.
It's like, it's always somebody else. You know what I mean?
It's always like, it's never you. And if you frame it as like, what if it was you?
And you're like, well, that would be bullshit.
You know, but people don't, people don't. And it's also like you were talking about another recent episode about like Trump and how he feels about coal mines and stuff.
And it's like these people, people like people like, people like, oh, that's, that's fulfilling.
for them the dirty serfs, the peasants.
It gives their life meaning to work in a factory all the time or whatever.
And it's like, you were saying, it's like there's nothing wrong with working in a factory.
But like it, the idea that like that's what, where some people just belong, like a huge chunk of America that's just like they just should be in factories.
And, you know, it's also like, we need people to do everything there is to be done in this country.
And so many people at the top want those people to not be able to fucking live.
is like the main problem with it, you know, like.
Yeah, but it's like, it's a, this inherent belief in like, in social hierarchies that, like, are natural and therefore you deserve to be at the bottom.
Not me, you.
Right.
You and your children and your gerick grandchildren deserve to stay at the bottom forever.
But that's the natural order.
Speaking of which, let's talk about the RFK and the horseshoe theory of eugenics where the left and right meet and because they believe in these social classes in a certain way.
Been waiting on eugenics to come back.
I knew that was.
on the way.
So we're talking about the measles
outbreak for a little bit.
There's one of the 700 measles cases
reporting the United States this year.
It's already passed last year's total
and it's, you know, the aides of April.
There are cases in 23 other states
besides Texas, but the vast majority
of those 700, more than 540, are in Texas.
56 of those 540 patients
have been hospitalized.
At least two deaths, I saw some word
about a third one today, but definitely two.
A six-year-old girl from Gaines County,
which is the center of the house.
outbreak died in February and an eight-year-old girl from the same town Seminole in Gaines County
died earlier this month and a bit of bleak irony that the town's named Seminole. We're basically
doing smallpox playing us to ourselves in a town named after one of the trials from the trail
of tears. Right. Yeah. That's rough. Do you know if either one of those cases are the one where it
went viral at the time, the parent of one of those young girls that died from measles was like
still wouldn't admit that they were wrong, like still doubled down. And they even said like
Measles really is not that bad.
And, like, you know, they defended their position.
Even after their kid had died, let me see.
It started to do the whole as a father thing.
But as a father, I cannot fucking conceive of that.
It's one of those things that makes me realize just,
we're just in two completely different fucking universes.
Perception and philosophy-wise, me and some of these people,
because I can't imagine feeling like that after something like that happened to me.
I believe these are Mennonites.
So there's a, there's a God, we'll let all aspect of this that's, you know,
sort of makes it make more sense.
I can conceptualize that I don't agree with that.
That whole lifestyle is so alien to me that that does make a pretty big difference.
So our FK in response to all this has said,
if you're healthy,
it's almost impossible to die from an infectious disease in modern times,
which is not fucking true.
And is medieval witch trial logic,
we're like,
well,
if the person drowns,
they weren't a witch.
If you die of the disease,
you weren't healthy,
therefore you can't just prove this axiom that if you're healthy,
you don't die,
right?
Also,
like if we even,
it like even if that's true like if you're a healthy and hail adult all these infectious diseases they shouldn't kill you it's like okay even if that's true if we can just not have them though like that would be better like if you can even if it's not killing people if we could just not have to have diseases and we have a proven scientific way to do that we still should do that you know right being stick doesn't hit even if you survive it right right part of this is missing and like like i do
I want to say like, like, we talk about like woo-woo stuff and how it verges up to, it can easily merge with fascism, which is sort of what's happening.
The Nazis were into woo-woo shit, like crystals and, you know, aliens and fucking occult mythology and spells and stuff, too.
And there's a, there's a reason this happens because it, but I do, I'm not trying to like, I'm not saying everyone who believes in astrology a little bit or dabbles with it as a fucking fascist.
My wife does, she does, she does, she does, she's done the occasional sound bath here.
So I'm not here to shit on all hippies.
I'm just saying that like, when you take it too far, what ends up being is like, if you're sick,
it's because you made the wrong choices and therefore you deserve it, right?
Right.
There's also a class element here because not everyone can afford to do the woo-woo shit or to spend time taking 47 supplements a day.
Right.
So like there's like, you're basically, it very easily turns into, well, if your poor, deserve to die, right?
So it reminds me like, remember when the tsunami hit Asia and the secret lady was like,
The good lady wrote The Seeker was like, well, they must have been putting tsunami like vobbs out in the universe.
No, I don't remember that, but that's, uh, that's, that's, that sounds about right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's like basically the RFK is telling people if you, if you die for measles, it's because you didn't take enough cod liver oil.
Um, okay, but also, aren't most, I mean, you said the ones that died in these measles, these are like little kids we're talking about, right?
So you're talking about like, oh, if you take this instead of this, you do this, whatever, but it's like they don't even have a fucking choice.
Like, their parents, I mean, it's still the parents making the decision, but they're applying it to this kid that has no say in the matter.
And it just makes it way more fucked up, in my opinion.
If you're a grown adult and you make some of these decisions, I still think you're an idiot.
But like doing it to your own child, like, you know, because of what you believe, even if it makes them sick or they die.
Like that, I just can't. I just, I just can't with that.
I just can't.
Yeah.
And, yeah.
But so this, like I said, it turns really into like, like, so he's telling RFK is telling.
people to take cod liver oil and extra vitamin A, but so I'm not sure how much cod liver
oil costs.
He's also saying because like this county of Gainesville is a food desert.
That's why kids are dying in measles because they don't have enough brocolini or whatever.
But by the way, he's been, like I said, down there on the ground telling people to take vitamin
A and cod liver oil, the hospitals down there are seeing kids coming in with liver failure
from getting too much vitamin A, right?
So you, like the vitamin, heavy doses of vitamin A is a treatment for measles in some cases,
but under doctor's supervision,
not just by chugging codd liver oil at your house.
Okay.
So, like I said, he said, the RFK, quote,
there's malnutrition in West Texas in Gaines County
and the Mennonite community.
The doctors that I'm talking to on the ground,
the leaders in the community reporting that the people were getting sick
or people who were,
and the little girl who died
where malnutrition may have been an issue in her death.
So this little girl caused her own death
by, I don't know, fucking not getting enough kale or something.
And by the way, the six-year-old girls' doctors say she was healthy before she got measles.
So this is all misleading and dangerous.
But while we're talking about this being Mennonites, I'm going to play this video real quick of a congressman by the name of Ryan McKenzie from Pennsylvania Republican.
First of all, many of these instances that are coming into our country are from illegal immigrants who have crossed the border with no checks, no actual health records.
and they are bringing these diseases
into our country. There is a reason
why measles has started
to spread in our country.
So these are
white mennonites who speak
German, okay? And
he's saying that
I guess the Mennonites should stop
running kissing booze for the immigrants as they walk through
town or something. I don't fucking know what he's saying here.
But just a little bit of...
I mean, they say this with all kinds of things
when everything is fucking immigrants' fault.
You know what I mean? No matter how based
in reality it is like that's what they say so this is just another version of that because
people are going to hear it and be like yeah that checks out right and like trump who loved
COVID did anything to spread as possible remember use COVID as a pretext to shut down immigration
even though these people have one fucking pitch one joke one pitch one whatever so this guy
mackenzie by the way he was uh his mom uh malu mackenzie's a state rep and they were the first
mother's son paired a simultaneously serve in the pennsylvania house of representative so
is bring your racist fail son to work day in Pennsylvania, apparently.
So,
measles is one of the reasons
measles exploding in Texas is because of stagnant vaccine funding
and now we're doing more vaccine cuts.
Measles was declared eliminated from the United States in 2000.
Right. Right.
And this is a spread out part of West Texas
where it should be harder for diseases to spread,
but it's not because immunization programs nationwide
have been left brutal by years of stagnant fighting
and now the post-COVID cutbacks are hitting
making it worse
it's one of those things
where it's like
you know
it's kind of similar to the rise of fascism again
or whatnot it's like
you find something that works
and it works well enough
for long enough
that enough people die
and you forget
why you needed it or how it worked
in the first place
so now you got people that are like
kind of unironically in their head
they're like measles vaccine
When's the last time you ever heard somebody getting measles?
Tell me that.
Right.
And it's like, yeah, that's because we found the vaccine and used it for generations.
But people fucking forget that.
They're like, I don't need this shit.
And then we get right.
You know, history repeats itself.
I feel like because of the dynamic you're describing, we're like 20 years from removing brakes from cars.
Right.
Yeah.
So, like, so, Texas, like, Trump recently cut $2 billion more from immunization programs for various diseases.
RFK Jr. was asked about it in an interview over the weekend.
he said he didn't know anything about it.
The guy in charge of HHS is saying, oh, vaccine cuts, but vaccine cuts.
Texas, by the way, has one of the lowest per capita state funding for public health in the nation.
Just $17 per person in 2023.
Texas probably spent more per person on buying cops RPGs than fucking $17.
Guarantee.
$17 per person on health efforts is fucking a fraction.
Like, to me, it's like that in education, like the two most important things,
should be spending money on you'd think um and by the way at the same time lawmakers in texas
in about two thirds of states have introduced legislation this year that make it easier to opt out of
vaccines um this is in an environment where we got updated data i think last time i know i mentioned
the numbers of the percentage of vaccinated kindergartners had nationwide had dropped to 93 and a half
percent as of 2023 the numbers is now down to 92.7 and you need 95 percent for a herd immunity so
were below that.
And Gaines County, by the way,
just 82% of kindergartners
are vaccinated against measles.
So while that fucking dip shit
is blamed on immigrants,
the good citizens of Gaines County
have decided for one in five of their children
to not be vaccinated
before they go to public's kindergarten.
Okay.
Here's a question.
Something that occurs to me,
and I already said I was very ignorant about him.
I don't know.
But I'm just wondering here,
because I know that RFK Jr.,
he hates vaccines and so many of their whole,
all their people and their ideology
is fuck vaccines and anti-science.
And none of that hits for me.
And this particular,
scenario since you told me earlier that it's we're talking about meninites here right like has that
changed for them meaning like have they always been anti-vaccine because of their overall
philosophy about the modern world or is this new historically and theologically is according to a
religion professor was reading up on there is no religious teaching against immunization in
menonite circles there's no religious prohibition nobody religious writing on it at all
part of the problem is they just don't hear a lot about it all right which is why public efforts
outreach efforts that we've all defunded would help here all right um but because like they got to
texas in the 70s 80s and 90s um the people that migrated here had to get vaccinated to be here
so there's kind of a cultural divide among the menonites who the older generation who believe in
vaccines because they got them and see how well they work and the younger ones who are vaccine
hesitant. Going to have
unfortunate impacts, I think.
Yeah. I mean, I watched the interview
with an older Mennonite lady
who was like trying to do like outreach
to teach people about the benefits of vaccines
and how miraculous they are.
And she's getting pushed back by from
Mennonites who were doing their own research.
So basically we got Anabaptists who were
going to YouTube medical school
and guys named like Jedediah, not along to Joe Rogan
or whatever.
Wild time we live in, buddy.
It reminds me like America like
American culture, like, people assimilate whether they know it or not.
I remember, like, I think I might have told this story, but my, one of my sweetmates, my
freshman New York college was ethnically Pakistani, devout Muslim.
He's from the United Air Emirates.
And by Thanksgiving break, our first semester, like, he started off praying five times a day.
He was stopping the middle of cross-country practice to pray, doing Ramadan and all that shit.
And by Thanksgiving break, his prayer rug was hanging on the wall of his dorm room because it looked cool under the black light when he was high.
See, that's what's up.
That's why I like to hear.
That's my America, Goddammit.
And it turns people godless.
Makes them hit harder.
That's what I like.
But what if it just made the religious psychos anti-like?
It made them only surrendered their values instead of me and community and the defense of the weaker among them by getting vaccines so their kids don't die.
They just got into Joe Rogan.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So.
Now, that's not.
But as far as like us being.
ruled by fucking morons.
RFK did a CBSA interview this weekend where he claimed he said that offhand comments
with they got very little pushback.
He said that pharmaceuticals are the third leading cause of death in the United States,
which is fucking insane.
If you're wondering, like the number,
the leading causes of death in the United States,
by far heart disease and cancer,
then in a distant third place is accidents,
then below that,
fourth is COVID,
then fifth is stroke.
So I assume he's pretending that a lot of the heart disease and cancer deaths
are due to pharmaceuticals and just like,
throwing them at throwing that out there but not have any proof okay but like we put just
every every cabinet official is like what if you put the dumbest person who cares about this
issue in charge of the issue right um and like rfk went on tv and said this the other day
i think this was at a cabinet meeting and we have as you we have now the autism rates have gone
from now most recent numbers we think are going to be about one in 31 from one in twice
so they're going up again from one in 10,000 when I was a kid really your direction we are going to
know by September we've launched a massive testing and research effort I got it back we're going to
get to the bottom of what causes autism by September.
I wonder what,
let's bookmark that if we're all still alive in September
and come back to it because I bet not.
But also, this has been said about autism for a long time now
by these vaccine people.
They're like, look at the numbers now.
Look when I was a kid.
Nobody had autism when I was a kid.
Now it's all over the place.
It's like you don't remember any kids that kind of stood out in your school
when you were a kid when you were growing up there.
You don't remember anybody.
It was, you know, whatever, they might have called them a little off
or they were just kind of different or something.
It's like we, nobody had autism because we weren't, it wasn't a thing and people weren't
diagnosing it, especially in like towns like minor in rural America.
It's like, they understand it better, so they recognize it more now.
It doesn't mean that it's actually more prevalent in terms of how it affects people.
It's like with COVID, when it's like, was it Florida or wherever, like their numbers plummeted?
Like, our numbers are way down for COVID cases.
Like, you're not fucking testing for it anymore.
Like, you know, like, it's, I don't know, it's not that hard to understand.
in my opinion like it's not like like the eugenics part of this where like like I can't like for
the life of me I've been trying to think about why they care so deeply about specifically autism
and the best thing I can come up with is autistic kids look like they ought to be healthy and
normal but they don't and therefore it's unfair or something right they're not concerned about
down syndrome or heart defects or whatever it's just like I think you you said it's unfair I think
you might be on to something because it's like if you have a kid that's coming
it's got down syndrome that's immediately recognizable right and it's like so in these people's brains
it's like well that you know that's a thing that can happen just like you can be born with a club foot
or whatever and this kid was born with it but with autism you know you don't see that necessarily
and then it happens later so it to them and i'm sorry to use these terms i just don't know how else to put it
i feel like to a lot of these people in their heads it's like no this was like a this was like a healthy
kid that now something has happened to you know what i mean it's like that's like that
That's not how that works, but maybe that's how they internalize it.
There's also like this idea, Big Ten, that being autistic is inherently bad.
That too.
Yep.
Which is like, we all know a bunch of people on the spectrum who are perfectly functioning
and fine and highly happy, you know, functional life.
So like.
Yeah, Drew does great, man, Gerard Morgan or buddy Jerry.
He does.
He's driving out there.
No, I'm kidding.
But yeah, you're right.
I mean, a lot of people, a lot of parents that have autistic kids are real pissed off
about this whole narrative with these anti-vax people because it's like,
it's like you're telling me that my kid would be better off fucking dead.
Like I'd rather my kid die, rather my kid get a disease and die than be autistic.
And it's like, I love my autistic child.
They're great.
They're a gift.
It's fine.
You know, it's like it's just a shitty way to be just in general, you know.
Yeah.
And like there's also, I think part of this, the eugenics part of it, I think part of it is baked in as autism is kind of like a coded as like a suburban white disease or something for kids.
You know, I think it's how people think of it.
It's not.
It's just like, it's like, but how dare my kid have anything that I quote unquote, quote unquote wrong with him when I, you know, make six figures.
Right.
I don't like, I can't figure out.
So for the record, Trey alluded to the fact that more people being diagnosed, but part of the reason you didn't see autistic people with intellectual disabilities on the street five decades ago was because it wasn't because they didn't exist.
It's because they were sent away to institutions and their parents were told to put away pictures of them.
The right for autistic people with disabilities to not be institutionalized.
against their will was only granted by the Supreme Court in 1990 fucking nine.
She's nuts, man.
It's a case called Olmstead versus L.C., and would you be shocked if I told you that
Clarence Thomas opposed the ruling?
So, in this context, I want to throw this out there.
Like, what we consider, like, autism wrong and bad?
This sounds quacky, but there is research that autism was naturally selected because it gave
some of our ancestors' advantages in systemic thinking.
and that's a more credible study than the ones that say vaccines cause all right yeah no
me and cori've talked about that before and i know that that's the thing some people would argue it's
like that they're uh that you know perhaps that's the next step or whatever in human evolution
or like a version of it or something like that and like you said that's very not very
disputed but it's there's more scientific rationale for that than that vaccines cause it
which is i understand there's essentially no scientific backing for
when people go on tv and say it should it should be it should be it's uncouth to
fun of Elon because he's not neurotypical it's like how can you one hand say that
behind autism's bad but also the world's richest man's autistic and has 14 kids and he's doing
great so like I can't fucking just figure out your shit um and they these people always say like
well vaccine's causing autism it's like well you don't see any autism only the omish and they
don't get vaccinated going back to the medinites and it's like they always throw that canard out
there it's like first of all they're just not diagnosed but you're telling me that there's a
community of people who spend their entire day
doing nothing but counting eggs and framing
barns and they don't have autistic
things. Yeah. So
going about to RFK being a fucking eugenicist, like the
Kennedys as a clan, I know that
RFK's aunt started this special
Olympics because of her experience
dealing with her sister, Rosemary
Kennedy. But I want to talk about Rosemary's experience
of being alive for a second.
Because they had
Rosemary Labad, Joe, this is
Joe Kennedy Sr. had Rosemary
lobotomized with what was basically a butter knife because she was depressed and had seizures.
They told people they did it because they thought it would be better than just being depressed
having seizures.
They told people it because she was quote mentally and they used the word retarded because that was
a medical definition at the time.
He quoted from a biography of Joe Kennedy.
We put an instrument aside, he said.
As Dr. Watts cut, Dr. Freeman asked Rosemary, for example, to restite the Lord's Prayer
or sing God bless America or to count backwards.
We tried to estimate how much further to cut
Based on how Rosemary responded
When she became incoherent
Couldn't recite the Lord's Prayer
God bless America anymore
They ceased cutting
So they cut until she couldn't fucking talk anymore
Past was such a fucking nightmare man
Yeah
We're going back there as fast as we can
Yeah right
They're going to undo the Supreme Court ruling
That says that autistic people don't have to live in institutions
Because they'll be like
According to RFK's logic
Well you chose to get vaccinated
Therefore you chose to have autism
And then, speaking of which, the guy of RFK put in charge of this study,
his name, to solve autism and figure out whether vaccines cause it, which he's going to say yes.
His name's David Greer.
He's been charged with practicing medicine without a license.
He gave autistic children a dangerous drug, not approved for use of the United States,
and properly prescribed puberty blockers because he thought that would help with autism for some reason to get to give,
to stop girls from growing boobs and boys' balls from dropping.
his dad was a doctor whose medical licenses were suspended by the seven states where he and his son operated autism treatment centers
to two children they gave they gave lupron which is the drug that used to lower testosterone or estrogen levels in patients with prostate cancer endometriosis and other diet diseases along with collation therapy which leeches heavy metals from the blood as in lead poisoning because they thought that autism was called by the murder
Mercury that they believe is in vaccines, which isn't there, whatever.
So we got a guy who's busted for practicing medicine without a license, who RFK Jr. is putting
in charge of getting to the bottom of what causes autism and a fake study where he's going
to say it's vaccines.
And I was remembering, remember the kid who is a viral news story?
He pretended to be a gynecologist and was given free exams in a van, even though he's only 20 years
old and he fooled a lot of people.
We put the equivalent of that guy in charge of vaccines.
yeah it's like you said earlier it's like it's almost like it's they're chosen from a comical
perspective to be the worst possible person you could choose for any these positions it seems that
seems to be the criteria there guys the motherfucker walk out there with with a plague mask on before
actually that would almost be reassuring if uh if someone was taking it that seriously
but yeah it's just a real real quackery going on and that is the order of the day all right
