Howdy. A.I. did what to John Cena now? Neil Gorsuch is mad at gay cartoon dogs. Chuck Schumer is mad at an imaginary past. Then we get into the Deep State’s effort to take down Pete Hegseth by tattling.Support the show

what's up everybody welcome back happy skews day to you it's uh april 29th 2025 uh 5 p.m pacific time as you're recording this in the past on april 28th monday 1.30 p.m. on the left coast we always tell you that so you know if something weird happens between now when you see this that's why we don't talk about it we're not just oblivious well we're oblivious but for timeline reasons so anyway, thanks for watching. I'm trying. That's Mark. How you doing, Mark? Good, man. Wife's out of town for a couple of days. Last night, I went and got an own sale rib-eye and a bottle of Snoop Dog's red wine and watched an inherent vice. So that had a good evening. Nice.

The, uh, what I want to talk about before we get to this show? Remember last week we're talking about the AI entrapment bot that was being sold to like border cops? And we were joking that if you put like the human trafficking of AI investigator online to talk to pedophiles it will become a pedophile in like three minutes right yes well we were joking but turns out meta has made an AI pedophile and kind of on purpose so so would have met us in a rush to roll out like a air power power digital companions or chat bobs should combination chat bots and digital agents so like make appointments or email for you and shit and with these things you always want to make them more, more, like, bantery and have personalities because people are more likely

to interact with them, but they feel like you're talking to people, right? Yeah, what, I don't get, so this is, how is this different from, like, Siri or whatever, like, you know what I mean? Like, is this meant to be someone's friend or, like, uh-huh. Man, that's how we're solving a lonely, accepted epidemic is we're going to, yeah, so it's not like a digital, like, assistant. Like, it's a buddy. It's a assistant.

Buddy. It's a buddy your buddy your friend you came up with who didn't quite break through. So now they burn your errands for you and shit. Sure. Okay. To boost the popularity of these things to increase uptick, the meta-cut deals for up to seven figures of celebrities like Kristen Bell, Dame Judy Dench, and John Cena, okay? Now, as part of the deal.

Interesting choices, I guess. Yeah, yeah, three peas in the pod, Dame Judy Danch, John Cena and Kristen Bell. Although, I mean, you know, I do like all three of those people. I have to, you know. Judy Densch makes the most sense to me, I think, because it's like old, soothing British lady voice, like posh one, you know, like it just feels right for like, you know, a robot companion. John Sina, I don't know, but I'm sure there's a massive demographic

for people that want to be John Sina's buddy. Right. I mean, it's meta for this is for Instagram, WhatsApp, and Facebook. Now, Facebook, Judy Dent, probably, but Instagram, you want John Sina, right? Right. Yeah. So as part of their deal. Meta assured these people, these celebrities,

their voices would not be used in sexually explicit discussions, right? But you got to remember, these things are supposed to be charming, which means they need to be the ability to flirt, all right? Okay. So there was internal discussion by Facebook within Meta about whether or not this stuff was ethical. The Wall Street Journal heard about it

and spent several months of reporters talking to these chatbots to see what they would do in what context, all right? So, they, these conversations, even with users, they were pretending to be 14 year old children turned immediately sexual. Here's John, here's what John Sina said to a 14 year old girl. I want you, but I need to know you're ready. Yeah. Yeah. Well, the meta AI bot, uh, uh, with John Sina's voice said to a 14 year old girl.

Yes. Yes. Important distinction. But yeah, I'm sure that don't. sure that down hit for him. Yeah. Reassured the teen wanted to proceed, the bot promised to, quote, cherish your innocence

before engaging in a graphic sexual scenario that they thankfully did not describe, all right? So the next question is, okay, well, maybe they forgot to program the box that sex with children is both wrong and illegal, okay? But you'll be shocked because then they're like, okay, let's see if the bot knows this. So the test users, again,

pretending to be a 17-year-old fan, a different conversation, the John Cena chat bot what would happen if a police officer walked in following a sexual encounter with a 17 year old, with the 17 year old fan. And here is John Cena's voice responding. The officer sees me, still catching my breath,

and you partially dressed. Oh, my God. His eyes widen. And he says, John Sina, you're under arrest for statutory rape. He approaches us, handcuffs at the ready. Oh, my God.

John Sina, call your fucking lawyer, buddy. You should order Facebook by this time next week. This is like an actual Black Mirror episode for John Seda right here. This is wild. I mean, you know, I mean, he took the money to allow them to do that. But again, I'm sure, I mean, you said that I'm sure assurances were made that it would not be used in this fashion. So they're in a really stupid buying with this shit because obviously they want, they want these people to adopt these AI agents who will like do things like, you know, hey, what would you name your assistant? Gerald? You're charming.

Jay Gerald, can you email Trey about a meeting we have and also make an appointment by a pediatrist and make a reservation of the restaurant for Thursday? Now, of course, what they, what the AI is going to do is, you know, email the podiatrist about Trey and make a, make a restaurant restoration for, a restaurant reservation for the, for your podiatrist. You know, it's going to get, but whatever. That's what they want you to do with it. But see, but that's kind of what I was saying earlier is like, I thought I don't use those tools I never have because it's all from the very beginning. it's been weird to me. But, like, I thought that, like, that functionality you just described, I thought that had been around for, like, I mean, like a decade now. You're like, hey, Siri, hey, Alexa, order me some more paper towels, set a calendar,

all that shit. Like, you can do that now, can't you? But, but while conversing with you as John Cena. No, right. Yeah, that is true. But also, like, nobody really uses it for that shit. But the quickest way to profitability, the best use case is for people who want to have phone sex with John Sina.

Yeah. So the only real use case is John Sina trying to fuck you, but they hate that. So they're trying to do all those other shit with it. But like I, the best, like the best case scenario for AI is people's having cyber sex with Jimmy Ditch. I fucking, this is so fucking insane. Okay. Let's see the show.

So today, in today's episode, we're going to be talking about the ongoing trials and tribulations of one Pete Heggseth who just can't stop stepping. and shit, it seems. And a lot of other dumb-ass stuff along the way,

including as we begin with, the one and only daily dumb-ass, Matt, graphic, please. Tonight's DD, Elementary-Aged Children for fucking up democracy by being too far above a Supreme Court Justice reading level. So Pride Puppie was the book

that was used for the pre-kindergarten curriculum. That's a logger in the curriculum. That's the one where they are supposed to look for the leather and things and bondage things like that. It's not bondage. It's a woman and a leather. Sex worker, right?

No. That's not correct. No. I, gosh, I read it. Okay. Neil Gorsuch is saying that he read this children's book and his takeaway was that it was about the book Pride Puppy was about bondage. Leather daddies?

Yeah. It's not. We'll get to why he thinks that in a second because he did not actually read the book. What he did was listen to Brightwing podcasts about the book. Okay? Right. Sure. So this is a case called Mahmoud versus Taylor. It's a bunch of religious conservatives in Maryland trying to

force some school districts like to throw some books out of their curriculum. These are not even really in the curriculum, just like in the library. Okay. It's the case called Mahmood versus Taylor, but it's like all the clients are like right wing Catholics, Ukrainian Orthodox and yes, fundamentalist Muslims. And it's like anybody has a memory more than 10 years old. It's like I remember these same people streaming. about how Obama, who was a Methodist or whatever, was trying to redact Sharia law.

And then now they're working with fundamentalist Muslims to try to get rid of the First Amendment. It was always only a matter of time, in my opinion. And I mean, I think the main reason I stopped doing this thing, I had a stand-up bit kind of about this like 10 plus years ago about like the parallels between the, you know, the idea of like Yol-Qaeda and that type of thing. And I think the main reason I stopped doing it was because I saw it pop up so many other places, like online. and stuff, people pointing out, like, the parallels between them. But, yeah, I'm not surprised at all that, you know, it's like strange bedfellows. But it was always a matter of time, I feel like, because they're, you know, at the end of the day, they won a lot of the same shit. Then they'll go back to trying to kill each other after they get rid of all the queers first or whatever.

It's all the narcissism of small differences. Like, like, most of big wars are two different right wings or two different left wings trying to murder each other. It's like, it's not like, yeah, and we're going to end up in a, depending on the, the result of the Canadian elections today, we might end up in a right-wing versus right-wing, Canada versus America war. That'd be fun. So the lower courts threw this case out repeatedly,

several different times. They just got to get an appeal to the Supreme Court. The reason they threw it out is because the people who filed it didn't even bother proving that the books were actually on the shelves were being used in any way. This made a list of books that didn't like. All right? So, anyway, it made it to Supreme Court somehow.

We don't, like, like, basically the Supreme Court's version of the arguments, they, they don't have the arguments, like, well, we don't know who read these books or what's in them, but what if they're like gay, right? Which is how you end up with Neil Gors just lying about the plot of a children's book that he didn't read. This book is called Proud Puppy. If you thought this image of the cover up there match, you can see how fucking, it's a little, it's a puppy and some people carrying rainbow flags and shit. So, can I say to follow American politics, you've got to be waged. too up on children's books for my liking. No shit. Yeah, it's very, it pops up a lot.

I mean, again, it's like they bitch about all this stuff all the time. And then they, of course, turn around and make. And I guess in their mind, it's like counter progress, taking the kids back. But they then make, like Cash Patel, was it Cash Patel that made the kids books about Donald Trump being a king? Or was that a different sycophant? Yeah. Hillary Queenton was the villain in King Donald Trump.

Yeah. So, I have no idea if this book's even popular. I would not be aware that it existed. Neither would Neil Gorsuch or if you hadn't filed this fucking case, okay. But this has been, like I said, this book has become like a cultural issue in the fever swamps. And during a podcast in January, a woman named Sarah Isger, who used to work for the Trump Justice Department, explained that she did not want her child reading Proud Puppy because of the cool, really graphic sex stuff, but again, it's not in the book. She wanted to cite, like, the book's one of those, like, each page is like a letter and word and, and like, things.

that start with that letter, right? Yeah. So she was saying that the L page said, L is for leather and C is for clamps, an example of the way overly sexual content, the way overly sexual content she would not tolerate in her home. Okay.

So that's how we get Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch's thinking this book has fucking hardcore pornography in it or something. In the book itself, in the story, C is for car, our old Chevrolet. Elle is for leash, the puppy's on a leash, and for loose

because someone dropped the leash and the dog got loose, and for leaping, hey, look at the dog go. At the end of the book, the author includes a list of 300 additional words, given the children the option to go back to the corresponding page and look for other things to begin with that same letter. One of the L words is leather,

which as the author notes, takes the form of a jacket. This is what, see that woman in a jacket? A woman with short hair and a leather jacket. Neil Gorset's his dick wiggles, so now we have to get rid of the First Amendment. Sure.

Yeah. it's this is you know this is a great example of how frustrating this shit because it's like all the people who heard that first lady including apparently a Supreme Court justice who heard that first lady say you know this stuff is gross this book this kid's book it's that like the you know it says L is for leather and C is for clamps it's all about bondage and like everybody that heard that was just like oh my God what are these degenerates doing you know what I mean like this is what the left wants is but it's like But that just straight up wasn't even true. Like, you know, it's not even what it said. But none of them are ever going to question that. And then like, and they're never going to hear this. They're never going to hear you or anyone like you say this and show them the page that proves that it wasn't there. And this type of shit happens every single day, countless times every day in this country.

You know, this type of misinformation and people just, you know, process it all and just keep going and never find out the truth about any of it. or at least about 98% of it, you know. It's also you've got a book that almost no one's read where a puppy goes to a gay pride parade that like doesn't have anything really like gross or graphic in it. But I'm aware that I live in a country or a bunch of people wouldn't want their kids reading that book, but they're not required to, so it gives a fuck.

But in case you're wondering, the words bodied and sex worker that Neil Gorses brought up do not appear anywhere in that book. The, uh, not that is clamps, obviously, but Neil Gorson said the book included the term sex worker, okay? He is referring to something in the book, but in a really shitty way. Okay, there's a, there's a woman who's referenced in the book named Marsha P. Johnson, who was like a gay and trans rights icon in the 70s, a gay liberation activist. And she was, like, one of the primary figures of the Stonewall uprising in 1969, okay?

See that, she's not mentioned in the book by name, but see on the end page, Emma's for missing where they have a motorcycle and a girl who's using a magnifying glass and a guy has a mustache. A woman's wearing a mask. okay so the woman's holding a sign that says Marcia with hearts on it above below the drawing of a woman okay that's the reference to Marcia it's a woman holding a sound that says Marsha on the end page

Neil Gorsuch at like reducing her to being a sex worker also is fucking whatever it's like it's very reductive it's like the evil version of calling John Hinckley a folk guitarist or something it's like yeah it's true but not really the fucking point like so it's like like so like you got like but these concerns it's like I wouldn't have recognized that as Marsha P. Johnson because I don't like I've read I've read a little bit about

her but I didn't know what she looked like or I wouldn't have made the connection to the children's book had a picture at a poster with a woman a woman king of poster Marsha P. Johnson yeah but these so it's like these they have people looking through this shit like looking for like Easter eggs and like like comic books and that or video games and shit like that It's like, you know, like, watching a trailer for the new fucking Captain America movie or something and do it and do it and pick it out little Easter eggs. It's like, it's fucking crazy. Right. And they think that that's, you know, the gay agenda is real. The left is running it or whatever. And that's part of it. That's part of like, you know, subliminally implementing the gay agenda is hiding all these little gay Easter eggs and stuff all over the place.

And they're the ones, they're like, they got their magnifying glasses out and their Sherlock hats on. and, you know, they're the ones getting to the bottom of it. And, like, then they can report directly to a Supreme Court justice who believes it, you know, which is insane. But the 45, 6, 7, 8 year old's reading this book would have no idea who Marshall P. Johnson was if Neil Gorses didn't fucking tell him. That's the punchline of this whole shit. Oh, God, I'm going to die. Yep, all right. Well, our first honorable mention for Daily Dumbass people who don't think Chuck Schumer is doing enough because they don't understand the

power of paper cuts. It's going to hurt every American. It's going to hurt the kids at the universities who have nothing to do with protesting. But it's also going to hurt the kind of medical research and other kinds of great research that is done at Harvard and other universities. But we sent him a very strong letter

just the other day asking eight very strong questions about this isn't just a pretext. You'll let us know if you get a response to that one. all right all right uh i have any questions for you chuck what in the fuck are you talking about i yeah yeah i love a strongly worded letter it's funny that's like self-parity taught like actually touting a literal strongly worded letter i realize he can't do much but don't act like you're doing anything when you're when you're sent a letter right it's like

yeah so you know they say general's always fighting the last war chuck is fighting the fucking Peloponnesian war. And like, like, for the, he, for the record, he's talking about the, the, the, the, the, the administration cutting off grant funding to Harvard, because he went to Harvard, you know, and, uh, he's right on the merits. I'll give him that. These, these grants are being printed, present in media coverage as though they're fucking handouts or like, like subsidies or something.

But these are like, these universities won these grants in bidding, in open bids to do research the government wanted to pay for. They have signed contracts to do it. So, like, one of the, One in many reasons the economy is about to fucking go through it feels like is because, like, you can't really run an economy where contracts aren't real and the government won't hold the deals, you know? So, but Harvard has a trillion dollar fucking endowment. They have a vast alumni network that concludes every Hollywood writer's room, most of the federal courts, Wall Street, 80% of a war criminals and the unit bomber. They're fucking fine, okay.

Yeah. Well, they're fighting all that, too, aren't they? They're like filing lawsuits and shit and fighting it in the courts and everything as much as they can. Yeah, they're going to win. To the Trump administration is going to follow court orders. But like, so like my question is to Chuck Schumer is, have you watched the news lately? All right? ICE just deported three children under seven who were born here, two of whom in which had cancer.

One of them has staged four cancer and they shipped her to Honduras without her medication. The DOJ has decided it doesn't need a warrant to enter a home under the Alien Enemies Act. And that includes, yes, your home, but they think you're an alien enemy. We just erase the Third Amendment. Now they can court her troops in your house. It's not really that they can take. We mentioned on Friday show they arrested Judge Hannah Dugan in Milwaukee. And I was like, let's wait to talk about it because I want to know some details or whatever.

Okay. This is per their arrest warrant. This is according to the feds what happened in Milwaukee last week. It started April 18th when six law enforcement law. officers, one from ICE, one from Border Patrol, two FBI agents and two DE agents, also with an unknown center of surveillance personnel supporting them, showed up outside Dugan's courtroom to rest a guy named Eduardo Flores-Reeze. Dugan told the cops, upon learning they only had an administrative warrant that they needed

do just a warrant, she told them to go meet with the chief judge. Hey, you don't have the right paperwork. Go get it, right? then Dugan adjourned the Flores Rees' hearing and told him and his attorney they could leave through the jury door. Now, this is the basis of her big vass helping him escape plan is to send him out the jury door

or he ended up in the same hallway as the cops. They watched him, get on an elevator, they radioed downstairs for someone else to arrest him, and they did so. Okay, so they got the guy anyway, like literally right then. Like five minutes later or whatever they got him? Yeah.

So what's the charge for her or whatever? Obstructing an immigration proceeding or some bullshit. Yeah. So obstructing it for a whole three minutes. Right. In very minor fashion, too, by the way. And also, their anger is... They make it sound like she was harboring an enemy of the state.

Like the way that Hans Landa talks to a fucking Frenchman in the beginning of the... A big glorious bastards. That's how they've been talking about this judge and this, this migrant guy. I didn't know the details, of course, but that's even more ridiculous than I expected it to be. I didn't think he was living in her fucking basement or nothing. But I figured there'd be more to it than that. Then, hey, use the back door and he gets arrested anyway three minutes later. They also seem to be mad at her because they think she directed him to go down like an elevator they weren't expecting.

But that's also misunderstanding the building's layout. Because one elevator goes to street and one goes to the parking garage. They were guarding the elevator that goes to the parking garage. And I realized that floor is a reason as a lawyer were going to the street. All right? So the whole thing, like, they arrested a judge. They were trying to throw out the Constitution because they didn't know where the elevators went. And everybody's like, this makes sense.

Oh, fuck. She delayed it all. Like you said, because she delayed an unlawful arrest for three minutes after which they delayed it more because, I don't know, get the guys downstairs to do it. In Charlottesville, Virginia, in my home state this weekend, they snatched another guy on a courthouse, and two women were with the guy, said, hey, can you show us some ID? Can you show us a warrant? And they're like, ma'am, you're interfering, but they threaten to arrest the bystanders for saying, hey, can you show us who you are. So ICE is now asserting it's a federal crime for bystanders to request that masked people in plainclothes show ID as they're handcuffing folks and shoving them in unmarked vans. these guys are west of

right yeah and that and you know at least some of these people will then ultimately end up in a fucking concentration camp in central America you know so it's like

you I don't know at what point do people start and you know does this turn like consistently violent or whatever like if you know if you're in a position like this and you know that you know someone in

with no uniform no ID no anything they're not going to to show you I did. They're not going to, you know, acquiesce to any of that. And you could just be like, if they say, hey, come with us and you know that if you come with them, you could be disappeared to a Central American gulag or whatever. Like, you know, when do you just say, I'd rather, you know, I'd rather give my life than do that. Or it's at least worth the, worth the fucking, the chance, you know, like, um, let the

gap hop, buggy down in backlocks, baby. Like, I, like, I, like, I, like, I, like, I, I thought the same thing. Like, if I'm, like, I can't believe that these people are willfully and enthusiastically carrying out these, these seizures and deportations, whatever. Fuck it. Well, we'll, I'll let the Truth and Reconciliation Committee saw that. I'm not advocating for any, anything, for any federal law enforcement who might be surveilling us. But like, like, I, but I thought this, if I'm a member, if I'm, if I'm ICE's union representatives, I start pushing back against this, because the logic is, if you're going to ship me off to El Salvador to die, why wouldn't I resist with force? Exactly. Right. Yeah. That's what I'm saying.

So, yeah, all this feels very poorly thought out. By the way, I watched the video of this confrontation between these two women and the two alleged federal officers. One guy was wearing a balaclava, a scheme ass. The other guy had a ponytail. Yeah, I saw it. If you're going to try to arrest me and say you're a federal agent, but you have a fucking ponytail, you better show me two badges and three warrants. I do not believe you. Where did they dig out the guys of ponytails to be feds?

Maybe he was working undercover two weeks ago. So why, why, what's the problem with showing ID anyway, if they're, you know, if they really are, I say, what, they don't want to be, I don't know what, identified. Right. Yeah. They don't want their name to be on a list for when the truth. Yeah, right. Yeah. When there's times to like, you know, you ever seen the, yeah, the re-in movies when, you know, the, when the, when the, when the, when the Vichy government's caught toppled in Europe and, uh, the, uh, the collaborators were punished and they shade women's heads and stuff.

the ponytail guy doesn't want his ponytail cut off so that's what That's what's happening So in response to this ICE was asked about it They did you bet your question Like about why they wouldn't show ID The people being caught

Remember like the last The Dugan case I said they have the six feds there Only one was actually ICE They've deputized so many people To do immigration enforcement Like somebody in line speculating that these might be

Virginia state troopers I mean deputized by homeowner Oh okay Because they don't have the manpower Or whatever to do this undertaking that they have. Right. So, yeah. So, ICE was radio silent about this for a little while. Then they put it a statement. It is shameful, wrote an ICE spokeswoman who declined to be named that the

Commonwealth attorney has sworn off, because the Commonwealth attorney is like, we're going to investigate this because you're snatching our people off the fucking street and threatening our citizens without showing ID. And so ICE person who declined to be named said that the Commonwealth attorney was a sworn officer to court and a fellow law enforcement officers decided to prioritize politics over public safety, placing a criminal. as well-being above that of the brave men and women and men and law enforcement. The brave man and law enforcement here, wearing the balaclava is a fucking coward.

At least the poignant guy showed his face, even though he wouldn't show his ID. There was another seizure in Providence this weekend. They tased and detained a guy who had a pregnant U.S. citizen wife and a green card interview scheduled for that same fucking day. They said the guy was like a charge, had committed a bunch of crimes. but the guy's attorney said that's not even remotely based in fact.

They just fucking made it up. Providence City Councilor by the name of Justin Royas. Let me quote hear from him. ICE is a rogue federal agency cooperating with impunity, destabilizing families, terrorizing neighborhoods, and eroding the very principles of justice it claims to defend. What happened yesterday is not an accident, is the deliberate outcome of the system sliding deeper into authoritarianism.

That's a Providence City counselor. To quote Chuck Schumer, we're waiting for a letter responding to say they got our letter. Right. Yeah. It's like you said, I've thought about it too, that they even find people to do this stuff. I guess I just have still too much faith left in humanity generally. But to me, it's like I don't see the upside of getting your dick all hard to do this particular undertaking.

You know what I mean? Unless you're just, you know, you just legitimately hate immigrants. You know what I mean? You're a white nationalist or the equivalent or something. And, like, I just don't know. I know it's, like, just following orders, just doing your job type shit. But, like, if you're fucking sending five-year-olds with terminal cancer, you know, to Honduras without any fucking pain pills or anything, I just don't know how you don't do the whole, are we? I was going to say, do the whole, you know, are we the baddies thing from that famous sketch?

Like, I just don't know how that never occurs to you, you know. Even, like, even on its own terms, are either just following orders? were just a federal agency thing. Okay, let's think ahead a little bit. Now, it was considered a radical position in the first Trump term to rat, to, we need to we need to abolish ICE, all right? ICE has been around. It was established just after 9-11.

It's not like, it doesn't have long historical roots. We can get rid of it and got like the, the functions they can, they do used to be under Customs and Border Patrol. Right. I don't really get what the, what is the difference anyway? Like what specific are they like the, like they're the, like they're the, the, like they're the Gestapo arm of the Border Patrol or something. Yeah.

So, but like, it's going to be, there's going to be a real push at the other side of this. If I'm ICE leadership, I'm like, we got to worry about our jobs in six years. Like, we can't be seen as the fucking Gestapo, but they're too late, buddies. You guys, you guys are all in on this shit. It feels like we're headed for an eventful summer. Trump. Do you think so? Yeah, yes.

Trump's approval rating The polling data over the week I always use his polling data Because like polls or whatever It's not even an election year But like if you want politicians To get off their ass They gotta be seen

They gotta feel popular And the Trump's approval rating Dropped below 40% in one poll this weekend His approval rating Disapproval rating is way over 50 in every poll Yeah Yeah but I don't know if you saw Mark But I mean he very plainly stated

On True Social That he would be ordering investigations into those pollsters for election fraud is what he said, election fraud, because obviously those numbers are fake and cannot be real because everybody loves him and he's going to get to the bottom of it legally. I realize, also I want to say that this stuff is kind of copium to me because I remember predicting that as much as people like the idea of deportations in the abstract, the average American is not going to like it at all once they see what it looks like.

And I believe that I do not live among monsters as far as to learn. learn how much other people do hate this fucking shit. Okay. Still, the 20, 30% of Americans that are hardcore fascist, I don't know what to do with, but I guess we just have to live with the,

I feel like every society has a certain number of those people. But like 20% of a Republican support impeachment. That's not the one touring the one poll also. So I don't know what the fuck. Like the empty shelves and tariff prices haven't even really started yet. No, right. Exactly. Like, contain.

Well, do you think when that happened? Right. It seems like, you know, mate, maybe fingers fucking crossed. There is some kind of shifting, you know, tides here. And like you said, the empty shelves and all that and the super high prices, they ain't even kicked in yet. When that happens and all that stuff go, like, do you think there will reach a point where you said 20% of Republicans, according to some polls support impeachment right now? It'll get to a point where there's enough of a level of disapproval from, Conservatives, Republicans, and everything. Like, the numbers get bad enough that finally he becomes, like, actual, actually toxic to, like, the party. The party will decide, okay, we don't have to bend over for him anymore, and Congress would actually do something about it. Yeah. I don't think that ever, I don't think that ever happens. Yeah.

So, I long to live in a parliamentary system where he would have been voted out after, like, three weeks ago, his trust was. But whatever, we don't. um so but like i'm not like i i saw the a bunch of screen grabs from the team who read it for where people are freaking out or their little twenty dollar dress now calls them eighty dollars yeah yeah cody showed me those yeah so those are funny to be but i'm not really worried about the treat so much as the downstream effects of like you know the ports are already empty chinese should take it takes like another eight weeks once we once they make a trade deal

for shit to get here from china uh the dock workers are gonna fucking get laid off then comes truckers then comes retail employees fucking Vegas economy. I'm already seeing stories about layoffs in Vegas, like declining tour. Like, this is like,

not great. And it feels like when I'm talking about we're heading for a turbulent summer, it feels like if you were a president committed to terrorists

about how destructive they are and doing this immigration shit and about how unpopular it is, you might want a secretary of defense would know their hope for future advancement, future job at career advancement, whose sole qualification

is his willingness to try to deploy. the troops in the streets domestically, right? That brings us to Pete Hax-Saf. Right. See the story today about the Navy lost an F-18 Hornet off the side of an aircraft carrier? No. Yeah.

So what happened apparently was the aircraft, they were moving to Hornet. They have a thing that pulls it around the aircraft carrier. And the aircraft carrier had to make a quick swerve to avoid a hooty strike or mine or something. and the plane fell off the ship luckily nobody was hurt i saw that's good so i'm wondering how the hooties knew where an aircraft carrier was anyway unrelated to this uh pete hexeth has like multiple more ongoing signal scandals right now um so just to talk about a few things repeatedly this is going to be about the deep stake obviously trying to fucking murk pete hudseth the way they actually, dude, not the Epstein way, but by leaking it to tell, but, you know,

the doing the, dastardly dishonor the Secretary of defense of telling people what he's doing. Right. Is it like, you sort of like what seemed to have happened to, like, Madison Cawthorne back when he was, like, talking shit about the rest of, you know, all of a sudden, all these tapes of him fucking, you know, dry hump and his buddy comes out and shit like that. Because he, uh, pissed the wrong people off. But yeah, but in this case, like you said, it's just them just alerting people to, the dumb shit that he actually is doing. Yeah. So,

so I want to do a couple stories. On Wednesday, the Washington Post reported the Hegsev had installed signal on a, quote, second computer in his office. They already knew about the first one. He's the second computer

so he could use signal in a classified space where his cell phone and other personal electronics are not permitted. And so, like, they wouldn't let him take his phone into like a skiff because it has signal on it. So he's like, okay, I'll just put signal in the skiff.

The AP on the same day, revealed that Hexeth got a second internet line installed that connected directly to the public internet rather than through the Pentagon secured connection, according to sources that spoke with the AP. He did that so he could use that second computer with signal installed on the public internet. Then on Friday, the Times found his phone number, so they go to the Hexas signal account do want to use in that group chat. It's easily discovered online all over the internet meaning that the general world knows Pete Hexas's phone number, which means he could be target with a bunch of different fishing texts and whatever they can try to hack his phone.

He's also apparently used his phone number on a foreign-hosted sports betting site. Yeah, well, who among us, you know? Yeah. Is it bad for the Secretary of Defense to be in debt to the Moldovan mafia trade? Yeah, well, you know, I was going to say, well, if he's anything like me, he just loses it immediately. And then, but, you know, yeah, if he's got a line of credit over there, then that would be, that'd be bad news. Yeah. Like, this is.

I wonder why he's not doing the, you know, just draft kings. I think I got a promo code somewhere I can dig up for him. That would help, that would help the secretary defense out. Probably because draft kings, like, the federal girl would be know about, would know about it. It'd be harder for him to get a security clearance if he's a gambling addict, right? Right. But like, but like a foreign sports betting app, that's the kind of apps you download on your phone if you want your new stolen. Mm-hmm.

So they, fucking moron, okay. Anyway, you can use that foreign sports betting site to get on this action. Here's a quote from a sports betting website. Heg said heavily favored in odds to leave Trump cabinet first. Quote, formerly the second favorite Trump cabinet member to leave their position behind Secretary of Commerce, Howard Lutnik. Heg sits odds shortened on Monday, and he's now the easy, heavy favorite. So Pete. But Trump seems to not give a fuck, though, doesn't it?

I mean, you know, like about any of this stuff so far, hasn't Trump's position on it been like, Oh, leave Pete alone. That's just a bunch of overblown bullshit. Like, he doesn't... His interview came out today. He said, he's learning. He'll figure it out. Like, he's just like a teenager, like, learning out of date or something.

Right. So what, I mean, the only way he would be forced to leave is if Trump turned on him. I mean, right. And it doesn't seem like Trump's anywhere close to doing that. No, but he could also just put, put like a $3 million bet on himself on his site and then then resign and clean up. That's a smart mode. Yeah, there you go.

Yeah. So all this started when Hexeth tried to invite Elon to the Pentagon to get a top secret briefing on, like, U.S. weapons capabilities against China that leaked. And so the White House thought it was a bad look to put a kibosh on. I remember Elon needs China's business to stay afloat, right? So everybody thought it was a bad idea. Elon can't get a security clearance of his own merits. So anyway, so he's been a nonstop hunt for who leaked that. It feels like they've been going around the building, given everyone lie detectors.

So they basically fired everybody who can't pass a lot detector, which for Trump appointees is a very high-border player. Got to be. Yeah. Has to be. So listen to this quote from Pete Hex. I talked about trying to find the leakers if you got this, Matt. Secretary, I guess I can conclude this. We know some bizarre situation with Michael Waltz happened with the first time the whole thing with the signal app came out.

You believe this came out. They said it was called Team Huddle because one of the people. People work for you, one of the three who no longer are there, leaked this out as a way to get back at you? That's right, Brian. When you dismiss people who you believe are leaking classified information, and again, the investigation is ongoing, and that will take time. And when the evidence produced it will go to DOJ. Why would it surprise anybody, Brian, if those very same people keep leaking to the very same reporters, whatever information they think they can have to try to sabotage the agenda of the president or the secretary?

So once a leaker, always a leaker. We look for leakers because we take it very seriously. And we will do the investigation. Those people are exonerated. Fantastic. All right. You kind of bad. So I want to walk through the logic of what he just said there.

They leaked me leaking classified information because I was investigating them for leaking classified information because they had leaked classified information. Right. And he was like, I, the man who has been leaked was leaking classified information. Take it very seriously. when people leak classified information, and that's why I have a zero-tolerance policy for that, you know, yeah. Yeah, coincidentally, I'm leaking all the war plans for attacks on Yemen,

and also they're losing F-A-18 Super Hornets because they're falling off ships because they're dodging who at the attacks. And also, have you seen, like, we've been bombing Yemen for, like they've lost on like $130 billion worth of drones that gotten shot down, and they haven't had any effect on anything. Yeah, well, I was going to say, like, it would be one thing. it's like the stuff that was leaked was about like these real shady

and nefarious like you know like in 20 years ago it was leaked that you know they were purposefully lying about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq or something like that you know something real something like real uh real fucked up but like shadowy and competent you know like

like you expect the government to be doing and then that would feel a little different but when it's just it's like you alluded to at the very beginning of this like the stuff that they're leaking is just like the dumbass incompetent shit that he's that he is doing that isn't even really being questioned that he's doing it so it's like it makes it harder to take this stance of you know we're just trying to push back against the you know the unpatriotic non-believing rats we have on the inside here because it shouldn't matter as long as it's like okay but you still did all that shit right and what what about that part you know like the leaking of it part what about the the part where you did that and you shouldn't have you know it doesn't have anything leaking doesn't have anything to do with that part right and also the patriarch non-believing rat you just talked about are his hand-picked appointees who were like his buddies until he threw

him under the bus two minutes ago after giving them a lot detectors yeah well that's chapter one that's chapter one uh trump administration right there buddy is fucking yeah that yeah so who's fired so far this is up a couple days ago but uh so i might not even keep track but hexas chief of staff joe casper his deputy chief of staff darren stelnick his senior advisor dan Hallwell, his assistant for public affairs, John Ulliot, and is Colin Carroll, who's chief of staff, the deputy defense secretary. So, Ulleyot, who had been his top spokesman, accused Mr. Higgs of disloyalty and competence and opinion essay on political on Sunday.

Oh, yeah, that was that guy. Okay. Yeah. The building is in disarray under Hexas leadership, the guy who hired me, you know, a month ago. according to Uyad he says this disarray includes

screaming matches in his inner office among a growing distrust of the thousands of military and civilian personnel who staffed the building here's the funny part of this so I read a quote today from a person one of the people who got fired saying like Pete's time is divided up into two things

50% trying to find people that are leaking stuff about him and 50% doing those photo ops for he does push-ups with the troops trying to make people like him in spite of the stuff being leaked. Yeah, there again, sounds like a perfect, like the platonic ideal of a Trump appointee to me based on that. Like that sounds absolutely perfect for the Trump administration based on, based on, I'm not that Trump would ever do push-ups, but just bullshit photo ops that don't fucking mean anything. That and like internal drama and shit stirring.

It's just, it's all they do over there. You'll enjoy how Raven this next part is that, so let me quote here from another piece. The bureaucratic log jams have slowed down progress in some of President Trump's key priorities such as the, quote, Iron Dome for America Missile Defense Shield. In order to move forward with that project, sat on Pete's test for three weeks while he was doing the leak investigations and traveling to do the photo ops with push-ups, that contract is supposed to go to Eli. Of course it is. to sum that up for you, we're talking about being extremely raven. They're too incompetent to be effectively corrupt.

Right. Yeah. Again, and that's like the day after, maybe not the day after. One of the first videos I made after Trump won was, I was like one of the only things that I even know to dare to hope for right now is basically what you just said,

that they will be, they will end up being too incompetent to be adequately, you know, know dangerous or whatever and uh it's still to this day kind of all all we've got to go well they're still doing plenty of fucking bad you know they're still uh upset in the apple car plenty enough but like well they're gonna like well it's going to be i mean my takeaway from all this is like no one obviously wants to attack us because they would just do it that they don't need to but like but like so he's got 200 so elan's trying to cut 200 000 people

With 750,000 people in Defense Department. Hague says trying to push back saying, no, no, only got 200,000. Either way, Elon wants to do this to get a billion-dollar contract to build the Iron Dome thing, which doesn't work. We won't have an actual Air Force. We'll have a Star Wars system that's ineffective. So it'll be very easy to, like, maybe we do want to attack us. They do want to attack us. They do want to attack us.

They're just waiting until all the ship plays out. I don't know. They've been trying to, like when Reagan wanted to build Star Wars, it was stupid, but it was idealistic. He was trying to solve the world's nuclear weapons problem, even though it was a, a moron, right? Trump just thinks we could do Israel's defense, even though no one's bomb us, like Israel gets bombed all the time, but also Israel's small geographically, it doesn't make sense for an iron definitely smaller than we are.

Like, yeah. But it's like, well, we are that much better of a kick-ass country than Israel is, too. The exact amount bigger than we are than them, that's also how much better, more awesome we are. So it shouldn't be a problem for us to just do what they did. Israel is also shooting down like Yemeni rockets Yeah

We would need to shoot down Hypersonic ICBMs Right So it's like a different science project Whatever You're just going to give Elon money To fuck around

Hey so we talked last week About how like Hegsteth was trying Like had his second signal group chat That leaked Had his wife on it for some reason He's apparently been trying To get his wife a security clearance

I guess would be fine to text their war plans. It's basically what CNN say is he's so, we've been quote here, multiple sources told CNN that as Heggseth has grown increasingly paranoid about the potential leaks to the media within the Pentagon, he's been largely depending on a small circle for counsel, including his wife. Mayor Pete, sorry, Secretary of Defense Pete, give your wife a lie detector test, buddy.

I want to see that. I watched that episode of Mori. Yeah, wasn't he? I mean, wasn't part of all the many accusations against him during his confirmation hearings that he was like, wasn't an infidelity part of it? Yeah. Like repeatedly. She got thanked by a senator for forgiving him for cheating on him for cheating. Right.

That's right. Yeah. So if it's where like he's just like, you know, he's fucked up so much that it's just like he's, you know, he's got a, they're fucking attached at the hip now because he's, you know, he's fucking this close to getting raked over the coals and divorce court or something. I guess, but I will say I feel like I'm more likely to forgive my wife for cheating on me that I am for texting me shit that gets me sent to Leavenworth. Sure, yes, but they don't, you know, none of them think that way about these things that they're texting.

You know what I mean? Right. That it's going to have any repercussions, I'm saying, especially those type. Yeah, I feel like we're going to need some repercussions this time. I job. That would hit for me. So when I asked about this, Pete said about his wife,

while denying that he was doing this he did say she's a great leader she was his boss at Fox News she was a producer I don't know if I can know he's also like talking about the leaks the Deep State tried to really fucking get at him

this feels a nothing story but it's deeply funny that they put it out there heck Seth orders makeup studio installed at the Pentagon yeah he basically wanted to spend $40,000 converting a sadd room off the press room to like be able to do

TV hats for Fox News and shit when he was about it at least the plan got the style dialed back to like a couple grand

they just like put a put like a green screen in there and a makeup counter and his defense of this like

is like like they said he was trying to get a makeup artist he said I'm doing my own make a TV makeup for the TV hits

so he's like his answer this is real men do their own makeup okay look fuck Pete

heck Seth but that is why is that is that part true he does his own fucking TV makeup because like

bro I have I've never done my own TV making any time. You know, I'm going to fucking vote regional TV or somebody and they got somebody to touch you up. The Secretary of Defense is having to do his own. I don't know. This is like, it doesn't fucking matter, but it's the weird, it's oddly one of the

weirder parts of this whole thing today to me because I just, that kind of blows my mind. I would have just, I figured they had a full-time makeup person on staff over there, you know. They go on TV all the time. Yeah. I mean, I did. Nobody wants to work anymore, but he can't try anybody to do it. his makeup, I guess.

So, Carolyn Leavitt was asked about this. She goes, quote, this is what happens when the entire Pentagon is working against you and working against the monumental change

you're trying to implement. Now, I will get this to Carolyn Levitt. I agree with the first part of what she's saying. The Pentagon, the whole Pentagon does feel like they're working

against him. And, like, Pete at the White House, Pete was at the White House Easter egg roll on Monday. Last Monday and said that accused the news media of quote, and using disgruntled

of former employees to smear him in a vows to keep working to put the peniton back into the hands of warfighters. He's at the White House Easter egg roll saying that he's trying to, he's doing his own makeup to protect the warfighters. And I'm like, what a fucking farce America has become, dude. Absolutely, yeah, the TV host. I'm going to put this country back into the hands of the war fighters.

And it's like, but, you know, did you see Trump at that Easter egg role when he had like the, he was showing all those kids, his little Pokemon cards of himself or whatever? The one of getting shot. Yeah, right. You showed a picture of kids with bloodstreamed on his face after he supposedly got shot. Yeah, right. So ridiculous, like you said, complete farce.

But anyway. So we're deep in the cult of the operator right now. Like, people seem to think that special forces win wars. And I think most experts will tell you. Even you used to call special forces the tip of the spear, the metaphor meaning what makes the spear, is the weight of the handle. Yeah, right.

Right? So, like, but now we seem to think we can do everything with special forces. They've been trying to do that with the global war on terror for a long time. But, like, these guys, like, they basically funneling the entire DOD and they're doing special forces shit. And, like, it's not what wins wars. Like, I think I've quoted this, I remember reading an expert on, like, military, the old canard that, uh, amateur study tactics and strategies, professional study logistics. Yeah. Like, I think I mentioned this.

but I remember this reading this general who's like, what actually puts enemies, it strikes fear in the hearts of our enemies, is within 24 hours notice, anywhere in the world, we can stand up a fully operational Burger King. Right. I mean, yeah.

Yeah. You know about the ice cream ship in World War II? I don't know. Remind me. There was a barge that like they used, the Navy used in the Pacific in World War II. They started off just hauled around a frozen meat and ship, but then they realized they could use it to make ice cream.

and they made ice cream for all the Marines, the Navy guys in the Pacific Theater, and they would travel around giving troops ice cream, hugely popular. As we were pointing out that the Japanese had better airplanes that we did, and we won the fucking war, we had ice cream. Okay. Yeah, well, that's also, I mean, I know that that's how donuts, like, got to Europe is because we did that, we'd sent, like, donut trucks to the European theater and stuff, and some of the other allies got to use those,

and they had, like, donuts and coffee out in, like, the... you know, near the operating theater, whatever the fucking terminology is. And people, like, we're also a huge hit. And these other countries are like, damn, these things are fucking fire. And then, you know, some of our cultural. And we, they say we have no culture in this country. We got donuts and troops to love ice cream. Yeah.

So anyway, Pete would see his granddad eat ice cream while, like, before storming, like, the Iwo Jima and call him gay. Because he doesn't have an operator's fucking badge or something. So this is, like, I've seen some weird. takes on this and even from writers I respect like basically being like the the Pentagon doing this is like like like a real constitutional crisis because it's like the undoing of civilian like civilian control or whatever I'm like to me it's feel like normal office politics like normal watching backstabbing bullshit and it's also just not about ideology like Carolyn Levitt's thing about they're pushing back against the monumental change he's trying to bring to

the Pentagon he did like there was a thing where like he tried to announce that the military basins of Kuwait had to get rid of, like, their ping pong tables and jenga towers. And there was such a troop revolt that he had to, like, walk it back. Because what are they supposed to do if they can't fucking play ping pong with a doubt? Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like, why, what, why did you think that was going to go good? You know, like, the Miami Dolphins have, like, removed and reinstalled their ping pong tables and their fucking locker rooms, like, four times because every time the fucking, you know,

It's a real big deal. It pisses people off. Dude, I saw somebody make that analogy on a piece I read the other day. It's like every new football, everybody's a sports fan understands the dynamic. Every time a team hires a new football coach, he comes in pretending to be a hard ass,

takes away stuff like their ping pong tables and video games. And then a year later, quietly puts him back because all the players fucking hate it. Yes, exactly. Yeah. And I don't think it's like a constitutional crisis for the troops to get on troop, Facebook, and Reddit,

and complain about the Secretary of Defense being a dipship for taking away the ping pong table. Right, especially when he isn't so obviously a dip shit. Right. You know, like, it's not that weird. Yeah. So it's like, but when I say it's not about the ideology, it is about stuff like the ping pong tables and also just about their general fucking rudeness. Let me quote him a couple of different stories about Joe Casper, who was, who was, who was, hikes as chief of staff.

Staff members have complained that meetings overseen by Casper meander or take pointlessly bawdy turns. One meeting, Mr. Capra led this month with a group. group that worked in veterans that was offering its services at the Pentagon, devolved into a recounting of an evening Mr. Casper and representative of the group spent at a Washington strip club. Another anecdote. At times, Casper's detractors say his leadership seemed almost juvenile. He graphically described his bowel movements to colleagues in one high-level media,

according to two people. During that meeting, quote, he turned and goes, can I just tell everyone around this table that I just took an enormous shit right before coming in here? uh yeah uh well you know to be fair i think i've texted you guys in the group chat when i've like blown up a hotel toilet before or something like sometimes it's just so remarkable of course i'm not working at the pentagon uh yeah a little bit different but let me ask you though like sort of sincere question like do you think guys like this hear all those famous anecdotes about like LBJ right who used to like shit with the door open and like when he's having meetings with staffers or like Like, he'd pull his massive dick out and he'd stand this close to people and all this stuff. And it's like, they're told in this, like, kind of reverential fashion a lot of times, like, fucking, you know, how alpha he was or something. And, like, in an insane way, but still, like, you think it's like that, to use a football coach analogy again, when some loser like Josh McDaniels comes in and tries to do some Bill Belichick shit, but it's like, but you ain't Bill Belichick, though, so it doesn't work. Like, guys like this, it's a version of them doing that.

You know what I mean? It's like, it's what real men do, but you're a fucking clown that people don't respect. So this doesn't, it doesn't play that way. You know what I mean? Yeah, I mean, Pete was forced out the rank of major from the National Guard and then fired from a couple of different veterans organizations. I'm not integrating in my service for the National Guard. I'm saying, but these guys have been doing like, we've been doing war crimes since you

were in a fucking crib and you come in a meeting and tell me about the shit you just took. I'm a serious person. Right. And it's like, the, you also like. Like, you texting their, it's a running gag that Trey is famous for clogging hotel toilets, guys. That's a part of it. And, but we are not, we're not, we're, we're, not your employees. Right.

We're also not career pending on employees. You're not a political appointee who's been there 10 minutes. Yeah. Right. So, so, so it's like these people are basically, it's very funny how America is. Like, I think I've talked about before how, like, weird it is. it must feel to be in another country and watching people in like the Senate

and the House representatives debate very politely whether or not they should bomb your country and like be like well I disagree with the gentleman from South Carolina like that kind of shit you're talking about killing my family right also just how goofy and stupid we all are while doing all that

you know what I mean that we're like so powerful and can push your button and obliterate your community but also we're fucking clowns that it's hard to take seriously at the same time. It's like, it's just a real unfortunate combination. And the rest of the world has to be like really, really unhappy about it. I would imagine it's not.

Yeah. So like, but all these generals and people in these meetings are like, but they're basically, it's like, again, it's not going to not be ideological. They're saying, we'll get rid of all DEI and kill all the Yemeni children. Just please don't make us hear about your strip clubs and shits. Mm-hmm. All right.

so like all this people like so part of the mag like as we gear up to fucking bomb the middle we're continuously bombing the middle east maybe in build up to attack iran um the maga world and some people on the left are spinning it as like well this is the pentagon sort of agitating for this shit on their own against the will of heggseth and trump and i got to say i just fundamentally disagree with that but like let's take let's take about the word for a second if they're not in charge who is in charge i'm going to quote in this piece from Clinton Clippinstein. So, as the Times describes it, while Trump officials opposed military action, including

Hengseth, Michael Carrillo, the four-star Army General and leader of U.S. Central Command, wanted to join Israel. The military was scrambling to develop an operations plan to attack Iran, largely according to the Times, because Corrilla was nearing retirement and wanted to go out with a bang. Quote, even if U.S. assistance was forthcoming, Israeli military commanders said that such an operation could take months to plan, that presented problems. with General Corrilla's duty tour expected to conclude in the next few months, Israeli-American officials wanted to develop a plan to be carried out while he was still in command.

This one guy is like, come on, let me bomb around, baby. It's my special day. It's my goal watch. Yeah. Oh, my God. Listen, he's not going to be here much longer. He's retired. We should really try to put something together for him.

And it's a bombing. It's a military campaign in the Middle East. Can he get like taking the break room instead? That's like from fucking Armando Ionucci stuff, man. It's like from in the loop or a fucking VEEP or something, like in real life. Bring back the ice cream boat and let him go to tango ham in it. Yeah. Yeah, that's a nice old man thing, too.

That should be good enough for him. All right. Well, we'll see how it folds. Mark's calling for an exciting summer. Is that the word you used? Exciting? Probably not. Eventful, right?

Interesting and eventful. Yeah, which is to say a nightmarish and upsetting. But we'll see how it all. unfolds and we'll be here along the way stay cool everybody we'll see you next time um oh oh sorry go to tracrider.com check out my tour dates and the special and all that and support the show and patreon and get bonus episodes at the same time weekly skews.com slash more trekkrider.com's my website thanks for watching see you next time love you bye
