Starting point is 00:00:00 All righty, everybody, welcome back. Happy Skews Day to you. It is September 24th, 2024. I'm Trey. That's Mark. How are you doing over there, Mark? Good, man. We're talking about some of our favorite, one of our favorite topics, the prevalence of
Starting point is 00:00:22 Dix in break-wing American politics, literally. They're so horny, dude. So, yeah, we're talking about some sex scandals. to the show. Before we get started, I wanted to make a couple of stories I wanted to touch on it. Ryan Ruth, the Trump, the alleged assassin who never got around to actually try to kill Trump two weeks ago, last week or whatever. He apparently left a note in a box with a friend who said, who confessed that it was an assassination attempt, which is not a very smart legal strategy. And if he failed, offered a $150,000 reward for anyone who wanted to finish the job.
Starting point is 00:00:54 Right. So you got a MLM scam of assassinating presidential candidates going on. on now. So that's a fun new development. So I saw people on the right talking about how it was unprofessional and inappropriate of the DOJ to have even released this because they were acting like this is Biden's DOJ tacitly offering a bounty on Trump's life. That's what they're doing because this guy's offering a hundred feet and they're putting they're putting this offer of reward out there, you know, because they're trying to bait people into doing it. And to me it's one of the scenes like, you know, any lunatic who does some lunatic shit like this, there's always some kind of manifesto or something, right? And it's like, people want that released, right? Generally,
Starting point is 00:01:37 like if you refuse to release it, then that's a problem. Do you know what I'm saying? Like, people would bitch about that. So you just relate, hey, this guy left this. This is more insight into this guy's mental state or whatever. But they're trying to spin it like the DOJ is offering their own bounty on Trump's life this way. You ever see the movie, The Jackal, the, the Bruce Willis movie? Yes. Yeah. About a guy hired to kill a first lady or something.
Starting point is 00:02:02 I forget. But like he had to use a robot gun because if you want to get away from killing a high level, like doing a high level assassination, you can't just be there. Mm-mm. Right? You're not going to survive it. So I want to meet the person who would think you'd have any way to collect this $150,000 even if you survive it.
Starting point is 00:02:18 Dude, forget, I'm about to say, forget surviving it. That's also my main thing is like, imagine seeing this and being like, I trust that got to follow through with this money. Do you know what I mean? Like, I'm sure this dude will come correct when the bill is due if I pull this off. Like that no, no, who would believe that this guy would have the capacity to pay them? But I guess in their heads, it's like, if you think that the DOJ is part of it, then they'll make sure you get your, you know, your money, I suppose. Sure. That's how you got to, you know, yeah, I think like them, you know. Yeah, yeah, I guess. Strange, strange times. So speaking of strange times, got a fun, uh, uh,
Starting point is 00:02:56 a darkly hilarious update on that you remember that mass shooting a couple weeks ago where a guy just shot a bunch of cars on a Kentucky freeway luckily nobody he shot 12 cars one of five people on Interstate 75 in eastern Kentucky I actually genuinely not making a joke
Starting point is 00:03:13 or anything like I completely forgot that happened but I do remember it now but that's how you know it's like a sad state of affairs with this country and mass shootings and stuff because that had that entered and left my mind almost immediately because of how many times we deal with shit like that. But yes, I do remember that guy.
Starting point is 00:03:29 That was in London, Kentucky, I think, which I used to work with the guy who was from there. And that's not like it's like a little, you know, little town on I-75. So it's a wild place or something like that to happen. Yeah, so luckily the guy didn't kill anybody except apparently himself. Got him Joseph Couch. He, you know, shot these cars and kind of took to the hills as you do. And the police have been like doing this big man hunt.
Starting point is 00:03:54 They had to shut down schools. just something you live through in America now. Kids can't go to school for a week because some maniacs were around the woods with the gun wanted to kill a bunch of people. And so the cops had kind of like given up on finding him. They're deciding instead we're going to pull back and just defend soft targets, I guess was their plan
Starting point is 00:04:11 if they had one, probably just going on lunch. But enter a couple by the name of Fred and Sheila McCoy who just took it upon themselves to find him. They called it a day-night activity. So he's in nights streaming on YouTube trying to get a $35,000 and reward money. And then they did what the cops didn't think to do
Starting point is 00:04:31 and followed some buzzards, Trey. Yeah. All right. Well, these are actual hill people here, dude. They know the tricks of the trail. They know the woods. They know the creatures. They know the fauna, the flora,
Starting point is 00:04:42 how it all operates. Now, this is like a great, this is what we get as like people, like backwards people get more acclimated to the internet era and stuff like that. Is you get live streamed manhunting. date nights like this from rednecks in kentucky and then dude the fact that it worked that it paid off that they hit pay dirt dude they had to be so pumped up i bet they i bet they wore each other
Starting point is 00:05:07 out that night i'd be so happy because they were live streaming it we there actually is footage of them finding his body uh they said uh let me read here from the story describing the video the couple said they saw vultra circling nearby and they commented on a foul on a foul smell as he walked toward the vultures. Then Fred McCoy shot it, I got him. Sheila replied, oh, my Lanta, oh, my Lanta. Oh, gosh, oh, gross. Oh, my Lanta.
Starting point is 00:05:35 Classic. So here's the kicker to this story. The YouTube channel is dedicated to a now defunct museum celebrating the feud between the Hatfield and McCoys because Fred and Sheila McCoy are descendants of the Hatfield of McCoy-McCoy's. So the funny part of this story, after finding a guy that cops couldn't is the McCoy clan as now celebrating over a century of making the Mr.
Starting point is 00:06:01 government man look stupid and competent. So there we are. This is all this is apropos of almost nothing, but just I was just in Ohio last week doing shows and this lady came up from, uh, from Eastern Kentucky or Southwest of Virginia, around there in West Virginia area. And, and, uh, she was one of the McCoys. Her last name was McCoy. And she's like, yeah, no, I'm like those McCoys.
Starting point is 00:06:22 So I think that area there is just last. I presume also Hatfields, but definitely McCoy's, I guess. They're still out here doing it, you know? Yeah, yeah, I forget the details of the war between the two families. Across state lines, right? So then the federal troops have to get involved because they were kidding. The governors and the county officials took each other different clan sides and whatever. Real hill people feud shit that I...
Starting point is 00:06:46 Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right. Well, let's keep going.

Starting point is 00:08:25 of an election year and so things start to come out filthy things nasty things dirty things we're going to be talking about them all a little later but first we start with the daily dumb ass laura graphic please tonight's dd people who won't denounce hamas in the middle of denouncing hamas this is uh louis Senator John Kennedy, interviewing Maya Barry, the executive director of the Arab American Institute. What time? You support Hamas, don't you? You support Amra and Hamas, don't you? Sir. I think it's exceptionally disappointing that you're looking at an Arab American witness before you and saying you support Hamas. You know what's disappointing to me? I do not support Hamas. You can't bring yourself to say. I do not support Hamas. I do not support Hamas.
Starting point is 00:09:24 You don't support UNR, you don't support Hamas. I was very clear in my support for UNRWA. And you don't support a rule. You should hide your head in a bag. Your time has expired. So fuck this guy. Again, he's one of the people in the Senate I dislike the most, I think. Yeah, he comes up a lot.
Starting point is 00:09:47 It's like evil foghorn, leghorn shit that he does. Right. Which is, if you hear, if you. If you're familiar with how he talked 20 years ago is not how it really sounds. I got a video I want to show a little bit about that. But like, so truth is the first casualty in a war, right? I think most people are familiar with that expression. And like the, like even in a so-called just war, like World War II, you can be driven insane by the double speak and fucking bullshit.
Starting point is 00:10:13 Like that's what Catch 22 was about. But like the, so the rhetorical game he's playing here is trying to say that because she is complaining about the fact that Unruh was defunded by the Biden administration. UNRRA is the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, which had been providing aid to Palestinian refugees affected by the war, vaccinations for kids, you know, food, other supplies, shit like that. And they got defunded after October 7th because Israel claimed that people that worked for UNRWA were involved in October 7th. There's been an internal investigation. I've seen no real proof of it anyway, whatever. He's trying to say because she thinks kids should get vaccinated and the American government should help pay for it, that she supports Hamas. Okay.
Starting point is 00:10:53 Right. So the punchline to this is this was a hearing about hate crimes. Yeah. And so the context, it was about, the hearing is specifically about stemming the tide of hate crimes in America. And he's using it to try to jumpstart more hate crimes. This is in the context about, like, the reason they're having this hearing is a three-month period of 2023 after October 7th. Hate crimes against Arab Americans and Jewish Americans increased significantly. And studies have been established that powerful politicians' words can embolden people to commit violent acts.
Starting point is 00:11:27 So you use the hearing where they're trying to figure out how to stem the tide of hate crimes to use his own platform to try to jumpstart more of them. All right. Right. Yeah, I don't know how this lady, and I've seen plenty of other clips from people testifying for Congress where I felt the same way. It's like my hat's really off to her because I don't know how you keep from flipping out at least a little bit in that scenario. And, of course, I'm a white man, you know, so I feel more entitled to flip out. But I just feel like also I got trash, blood and everything. And I just, I don't think I could sit there in that scenario.
Starting point is 00:11:59 Because she's literally repeating the words, I do not support Hamas while he is like aggressively, you know, yelling at her, basically. Why will you not say you don't support Hamas? And it's just like, that would drive me insane. I'd call him a motherfucker. I'd be like, are you fucking? What the fuck do you want me to say? I do not, you don't understand the words. I go all Chris Tucker.
Starting point is 00:12:19 you don't understand the words that are coming out of my mouth. I've used my fucking mind. People that know better because the thing, that's what, especially, again, if you're coming from like a woman of color or whatever, that's exactly what they want you to do is to lose your cool and to do that shit. But even knowing and understanding that,
Starting point is 00:12:38 I'm still impressed with people that had the capacity to do so because I would flip the fuck out on this dude if I was in this situation. Because it's just, but luckily it seems like a lot of other people there. I'm sure plenty of people were like oh he's spitting but clearly a lot of other people realized
Starting point is 00:12:54 what he was doing. You can hear people booing and groaning and all that shit throughout so and this clip went viral and people are hating on it so right and like if you I don't know if you this this next video clip has a sorry I'm going to tell you Laura is it is a YouTube clip that has a pre-roll ad if you can queue it up so we can play
Starting point is 00:13:10 a second because I want like the genre of people that bother me the most in American politics not just in politics but in general or people that pretend to be stupider than they fucking are, right? And he's essentially doing a Larry the Cable Guy routine where he's a like,
Starting point is 00:13:28 like, I don't have no idea what's in his heart. I don't know if he's really racist. But I do know he's really, that in real life he went to Oxford and he's very educated. And back in 2004, when he was a Democrat, this is what he sounded like if he got this video clip from 2004.
Starting point is 00:13:46 I'm a Democrat. I support Senator Kitt. I have endorsed Senator Kerry, as you have, as Chris Hats. He's the nominee of our party. Okay. Look, politicians are phonies. They have one persona for that. That's not from that guy.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Yes, Dan Abrams of an MS. He used to do an emiss. I don't know what he's on there. But like, so, like, what, I don't know what to call this. It's kind of like a, like, it's like a redneck face thing he's doing because he wants to win elections, Louisiana. I mean, look, to my ear, his voice, the voice by itself, it's less exaggerated or whatever, but not, there's still an element of it there, in my opinion, when you listen to him. But, I mean, the, you know, the unbridled lunacy, just the overall tone and approach of the persona is certainly incredibly different in that clip from 20 years ago. but I guess he learned somewhere along the way
Starting point is 00:14:48 that there was only one way to, you know, continue being a congressperson or whatever in Louisiana and it was to pivot further and further into this shit. And so he does that. But yeah, no, I'm with people that all shucks it up. And I mean, well, here's the thing. I mean, I do a little bit of that. I all shucks it up every now and then.
Starting point is 00:15:08 Sure, but not like, you don't, but like he, like, with their cues like Kamala Harris are doing when she just, she's just code switching. Right. Like, she put it, like, she's, like, she's, like, she's, like, she's co-switching that cues her putting on a fake accent. This is a fake fucking accent. We have documented proof of it. That's not what he, when he goes home, that's what he sounds like.
Starting point is 00:15:25 When he's in the Senate, this is what he says. It's like, it's very, it's a very fucking fraudulent game to me to be playing, especially when we got footage of you because you were a public figure in 2004. So, uh, but like, all they have this election cycle is fucking racism. And I've never seen, like, I didn't think, like, I literally would rather die than be doing this in 2024. for, like, like, what they're doing, it's so fucking cynical and depraved. Like, here's a headline from a speech Trump gave the other day.
Starting point is 00:15:55 Trump says that if he loses, the Jewish people would have a lot to do with it, all right? He's saying if he loses, it's the Jews fault. I just don't get how they, because also they super back Israel, right? I mean, that's what, like, the juxtaposition of these two clips, right? Part of the reason this guy, John Kennedy was going in on her for the Hamas stuff or whatever is, Because, like, Israel are the good guys, right? If you're Republicans, like, we've got to back them at all costs because they're the ones fighting evil over there. That's what they say and think.
Starting point is 00:16:23 And then their figurehead, their God emperor, Trump, and not just him, but also the base, all the MAGA world, they like, they hold that belief or at least, you know, profess to. And then, but then also it's pandering to them to just say, oh, it's the Jews, blaming on the Jews. And they'll talk shit about Jews, but Israel rules. And I know this has come up before and you said the whole thing. It's like, well, see, the deal with them is fundamentalist Christians. It's something about the Bible. The Jews need to be in the promised land when Jesus comes back or something. So that's why Israel needs to stay a thing.
Starting point is 00:16:58 But I bet Trump don't fucking know that. No, no. But everything is because everything is transactionally doesn't understand why like 60 some percent of American Jewish people, so you tend to vote Democratic. So like he's saying, like, because I'm helping quote, quote, your people, I want them to be free to kill as many people as possible, then you should support me. I should be winning in the polls with you. And the fact that I'm not means that you guys suck and this will all be your fault when
Starting point is 00:17:28 the world is when I'm not elected. Right. Yeah. And it's like like Jewish voters are like 2% of the American electorate. So like they, whoever wins is neither. It's blame it on them. It's insanely. It's all Nazi shit, dude.
Starting point is 00:17:41 It's like it's going to be fifth. Nazi shit. It's like, it's like, this is absolutely insane. And like, while he's doing this, he's running around using a word, uh, called the word remigration at a lot of his rally. He's talking about like forcing people out of the country back to whatever the countries of origins are. Now, this is a word that does not clock to most of us, but Nazis around the world know it because they use it constantly. It's their, their counter, their counter plan to, uh, you know, what, what they call the, uh, the great replacement. It's like, all you're trying to replace us with people from the global south, we're going to, you know, ship them back and remind their, it's their, you know, their, they're counter to the, you know, the Jewish cabals great replacement theory move or whatever.
Starting point is 00:18:26 Like, it's like, so the fact he's using this word at the same time we're saying that, like, that, uh, that his election laws to be the fault of Jewish people is like, it's all incredibly dark shit. Right. So it's like, though, the word remigration just means like taking immigrants and putting them back, right? That's what it means. You send them back. That's what we're doing. And they've been hollering about sending them back for a long time. But you know, and other people have noted and pointed out that that word remigration is kind of a rallying cry, a fundamental philosophical tenet of a lot of Nazi white nationalist groups around the world, right?
Starting point is 00:19:04 That's like they hollered, no, this is what needs to happen. Remigration and the idea that Trump is just using an innocent word that happens to also be used. a lot by Nazis is, you know, bullshit. It's like, no, it's a dog, you know, it's a dog whistle. Do the rest of us walk around saying remigration all the time? Right. I've only ever heard it used by fucking Nazis, all right? Right.
Starting point is 00:19:24 So like this guy, let me get me quote here from a guy named Martin Selner, who's the leader of the Austrian chapter of Generation Identity, a Pan-European White Supremicist Network. He tweeted this in his native German. Hashtag Remigration has had a massive conceptual career, born in France, popularized in German-speaking countries. And now the term of the hour from Sweden to the USA. So, like, what happens when you want to do when you're running for major office in America
Starting point is 00:19:50 is to use weird buzzwords, the rest of us don't clock, but McNossi is extremely horny. Right. Yeah. To me, I feel like if I was a public figure on this level and I said something and then a prominent Nazi and head of a Nazi group was like, this guy gets it. He's saying our thing. Like, that would be bothersome to me. Yes.
Starting point is 00:20:11 I would try to avoid doing that. It's a long-running thing on the show. Try to live your life in such a way that you avoid having a Hitler section on your Wikipedia page or comments about Hitler. And this feels like that's, you know, part of that idea. But Trump's playing right into it. Yeah. I mean, like, back when I did stand-up, I, like, had a lot of, like, I did a lot of, like, I already drenched shit. I had jokes I stopped doing because I figured out that people were laughing for the wrong fucking reason.
Starting point is 00:20:37 Do you understand what I'm saying? And like, so, but all this is happening in the same context. where, like, J.D. is saying that spreading this lie that, like, for example, the immigrants bring disease. Like, he's, he's saying that, like, HIV and AIDS is up, like, a lot since the Haitians arrived in Springfield, which is not true. The health department is saying it's not true. It doesn't matter. He's saying that, like, he's describing people that are here legally as illegals. They need to get out of the country.
Starting point is 00:21:01 And this, like, Nazi fucking, like, pandering shit is getting so unsubtle that I don't know how they, like, can escape it. Mike Lindell this week is promoting a. my pillow sale, where these pillows are on sale for $14.88. Okay. 14 is the 14. Oh, my God. Are you serious? Yeah, I know what that meant.
Starting point is 00:21:20 Yeah. And 88 is the Hitler number. It's 8. Yeah. H is the 8 letter of the alphabet. 80 is Haled H. H. H. H. Yeah, right. But what's the point of your code when everybody knows your fucking code?
Starting point is 00:21:32 It's a good point. Right. Yeah. We all know it at this point. Yeah. I don't know, dude. But I'll say you brought up Springfield just as a quick side note. I was in Ohio doing shows this past weekend.
Starting point is 00:21:41 and they were all great. Thanks, y'all who came out. On Saturday, me and Travis Irvine, friend of the show, Denison of the Ske Universe, he was opening for me. We went to Springfield on Saturday, spent the day in Springfield. They had the annual mustard festival with waney dog races and all this stuff, and it was a almost comically charming slice of Americana. It was not in any way a, like, immigrant hellhole or whatever that was just overran by these, you know, vicious leeches.
Starting point is 00:22:11 from you know south of the border in the Caribbean or whatnot and uh Travis actually he does a man on the street stuff for last podcast network and he talked to a bunch of people at the mustard festival and even people who were like clearly republicans who like balked at talking shit about jv vans even those people every one of them they're all from springfield and they all express some version of like we are disgusted and disappointed at what has been said about our community over the past couple weeks because none of it is true so even like middle-aged white conservative people are like it's just a shame that this misinformation has gotten out there and people think these things about our town
Starting point is 00:22:47 because it's nothing like that has happened none of that's the case and it was uh yeah very charming little america you know big to me it's like 80,000 people or whatever which is a fucking metropolis if you're from clay county but still charming american midwestern town um and i just wanted to report back on that front i saw no dogs getting eaten other than hot dogs at the mustard festival, of course. But generally speaking, no dog's getting neat. We went to the Haitian restaurant in town.
Starting point is 00:23:15 It was packed, by the way, line out the door. People are showing up to support, and the food was very good. So, yeah, had a good time in Springfield. Just so y'all know. That's the field piece for the week delivered right here into the camera. We talked about, was it Eagle Pass, Texas, about how a bunch of weird lies had, like, really just, you know, broken down the social fabric in that town. Outsiders coming in.
Starting point is 00:23:37 People coming there with guns to, like, shoot migrants. and shit and then you got Springfield like eventually it's going to come to like every town and I wonder when Americans are going to like think like well obviously the stuff I see them say on my screen about another town is true but right when they say about my town I walk around outside yesterday and it was a lie like yeah me and Corey and Drew were just talking about that earlier on well read today about that exact thing but also because we're talking about public schools and shit and the demonization of public schools and I'm doing a bit right now that has to do with like I went to public school this shit takes off in rural America I'm from
Starting point is 00:24:09 rule America. I went to public school. I don't understand how this gets any traction because my school couldn't have been less woke. And then I make a bunch of jokes about how not woke my public school was. But it's obviously, it's just that they're like, no, our school's a good God fear in public school or whatever. But it's those public schools out in California or Colorado where that's the ones where they're confiscating little boys' dicks or, you know, giving kids litter boxes to piss in. It's happening there, but not here, obviously. And yeah, the same thing with the Springfields of the world. If you're from Springfield and you're hardcore Republican, you're like, this is ridiculous. Why would anybody believe this? But let them say it about another community and you'll
Starting point is 00:24:47 be like, it's a damn shame that that's happening. But that's not news to any of us, right? We've known for a while that a lot of these people, they needed to impact them on a personal level before they can have any kind of real empathy for it or re-contextualize it. And I know you said, eventually every American community will be affected by this type of stuff. But I don't know. There's a lot of them out there. It would take a long, long time to smack that type of sense into people, I think. But it's a shame that that's what it takes. But anyway. Yeah. Yeah. Every American city is a crime. I saw somebody like being like, is it safe to walk from like West 46th Street in New York to like whatever. Like somewhere in Times Square. It's higher. It's higher. It's higher than that. But like, you know, and it was like, buddy, if you're scared to walk through the most heavily police tourist destination at America. Right. At 7 p.m. at night, you should never leave your house. See, right. But the thing about that, and I think this is related to why that particular disinformation campaign or a piece of propaganda, this is why it's so effective, is because I know, I mean, you know, you're from a small town too, but I know, like, even before it got framed the way it is now with this narrative about evil migrants and all that, like people in small towns are just afraid of cities, of being like, my mema who hated Donald Trump and voted Democrat her whole life, anytime I talked to her on the phone, she was like, you know, don't step on a heroin needle on your way to the CVS or whatever. Like she thought I was going to get robbed at 9. Point all the time because it's just like
Starting point is 00:26:11 the Avitt brothers had a song, murder and don't go get murdered in the city. It's like it's just a thing. Like cities are scary and I'm saying they've played right into that with this whole immigrant thing. And that's part of the reason it works so well is because a lot of small town people are scared to be. I still have some of that in me,
Starting point is 00:26:31 honestly, sometimes. I get nervous for no good reason. If I'm in an unfamiliar part of a big. city because it's just part of who I am. So they, you know, they know these things and they play you know, they push those buttons and they pull
Starting point is 00:26:44 those strings knowing that that's part of why it will be effective. And it's, it's tough. All right. But there's some good news though. There's huge pieces of shit. Let's talk about it. Yeah. So there's been a bunch of like weird sex scandals in the past few days. For example,
Starting point is 00:27:02 when I even get to this one, but one of the guys in charge of Project 2025 has apparently been sending weird DMs to teenagers. I think so far they're all legal age, 18 or whatever, the college freshman, but like still don't be doing that. Right.
Starting point is 00:27:14 You're doing a Chris Delea type thing? It's like, you know. Allegedly. Right, yeah, allegedly. Yeah, same allegations. Like, oh, you're 18. Like, you're 17? I can't do that.
Starting point is 00:27:25 But, you know, when's your birthday? I'll send you my dick then. Right, yeah. So there was like a 24th period on Thursday where like all this shit was going on. It must have been like what Q&N people thought the storm going to be allowed except for like libs it's just so you know no tribunals in executions but like
Starting point is 00:27:41 just everybody's dirt being dropped uh the ones we're not going to get in depth about there was a new court filing related to like stuff around matt gates where this guy was trying to sue someone for defamation didn't pay as lawyers the lawyers introduced a bunch of stuff in there turns out matt gates texted this guy who was used to be his friend 30 days 30 times a day of a sex party the 17 year old was at same 17 year old is accused of trafficking so that's probably going to end up being at least embarrassing for him. Here's a fun when Corey DeAngelis, who's a guy, a conservative education reform advocate, who's espoused anti-gay sentiments, was exposed for his involvement in gay porn.
Starting point is 00:28:23 He was a, he worked for, he was a senior fellow for the American Federation for Children, which is Betsy DeVos' like anti-public school outfit. He's got a bunch of, you know, he'd been. retweeted a bunch of times by your favorite governor from Tennessee, Bill Lee. But apparently he used to perform in gay adult films under the pseudonym Seth Rose, including a scene in which he won a group masturbation contest, which my question with this is like, doesn't everyone win a group masturbation contest? Well, it depends.
Starting point is 00:28:54 Is it a race to the finish or is it an outlast situation? I think it's a race. I think it's a race like a fraternity hazing used to do, you know? Like the, yeah. So then there was like the Olivia Nuzzi and RFK thing, which is just like fucking mind-blowingly stupid. She got a reporter, got suspended for a job from New York magazine for our guest sending RFK Jr. nudes. Her problem was that he, you know, he's 70 years old and married to Cheryl Hines. Unfortunately for her, he's stupid enough to brag about getting the nudes.
Starting point is 00:29:29 Right. Her editors heard about it. Confronted her. She denied it. So they were like, well, they guess the moral of the story is don't trust the severed. The guy who cuts a whale's head off with a chainsaw with your nudes. I was about to say like he's clearly not the best at keeping secrets, you know,
Starting point is 00:29:45 like or keeping things covered up. So it seems like a odd choice. But some people, and you know, I didn't fact check these. They could have been altered, I guess, digitally.
Starting point is 00:29:53 But I saw a bunch of screenshots from her Twitter over the years, tweets she made like years and years ago. Apparently she's got a type because she had tweeted about how Mitt Romney was just sexy as fuck and Rick Perry Rick Perry just tearing her up with those steely eyes and all that you know papal energy he had
Starting point is 00:30:13 or whatever but I guess she likes rich old white crazy dudes I guess Yeah I mean her fiance until all this stuff happened was 50 years older than her So she definitely has a type If anybody out there is an old rich and white So but now for our
Starting point is 00:30:29 The funny political part of this is RFK Jr. is now mounding a weird PR disinformation campaign, I guess, to try to save his marriage. He basically said that he had blocked her, but she'd get to creating new emails and phone numbers to like, to send him dudes like, oh no, don't stop sending me the nudes.
Starting point is 00:30:46 He's got to have a, how many people you think is on his full time round the clock staff of just like PR damage control stuff or whatever, do you know what I mean? There's no way there's got to be a team assigned to just this and some of those people had to be pulled off of whale skull duty
Starting point is 00:31:05 who were previously on bear corpse duty and there's still somebody working the brainworm thing, you know, like, it's got to be wild to work for this guy, man. It's like Lucy of a chocolate factory with dumb shit. Right.
Starting point is 00:31:18 Yeah, with, yeah, with disconcerting insane dumb things. Yes. So now he's threatening to sue her for harassing him by sending him nudes. So like, what you definitely want to do when you're a serial adult or like RFK Jr.
Starting point is 00:31:35 is open yourself up to discovery where she'll be able to get access to all your texts and stuff. So that's just brilliant strategy to be next year there. Way to go, sir. So let's get to Mark Robinson because this is the one
Starting point is 00:31:46 with a lot of the meat on the bode. And I think it actually tells a story both about our politics and media and offer some insights into the heavily online world of the American right wing. Let's start with this video from Fox News trying to describe what had happened here.
Starting point is 00:32:02 According to CNN, Robinson, the Republican nominee for governor, quote, made a series of inflammatory comments on a pornography website's message board more than a decade ago in which he referred to himself as a black Nazi and expressed support for reinstating slavery. CNN reports that its review of archive messages also revealed that despite his publicly conservative stance on transgender rights in his earlier online comments, Robinson said he enjoyed watching transgender pornography. and that he also referred to himself as a perv. Robinson denies making the comments and issued this response on social media. Are you good? Maybe it's just me, but I feel like those were presented in reverse order, meaning, you know what I mean? It feels like it should have started with. He commented, I'm a bit of a perv, and then followed up with, he liked transgender pornography,
Starting point is 00:32:57 even though he's openly transphobic. And then I personally would have closed with. this dude said I'm a black Nazi who thinks slavery should be a thing again and I'd like to own some myself I mean maybe that's just me of course you know Fox News is demographic I get why you would want to switch those things it's totally opposite in their brains but yeah it's this guy man he's the gift that keeps on giving uh it's like crazy shit I just I want to think about like forget what he was saying for a second okay you're on a porn message board.
Starting point is 00:33:33 Bro. And you're talking politics. Even regardless of what you're saying, that's insane behavior. To also add it to the fact you want to reinstate slavery and you're saying all black Nazi. Like it's like it's several degrees of crazy. You imagine you're just a guy who's just trying to, you know, do your business on a porn site and you're being subjected to these rants.
Starting point is 00:33:53 I don't people, do anybody that, you know, no offense to anybody out here who engages because I mean, to be fair, I think Yelp reviews are even kind of weird. But people that like comment on. porn videos or porn sites have always blown my mind. Like somebody like, because dude, like you said, you're doing your business,
Starting point is 00:34:10 you know, you get in, you leave in shame as quickly as possible. Try to pretend none of it ever happened. That's how I am. But these people are on here like, writing out full treatises on the, you know,
Starting point is 00:34:21 the ends and house giving critiques on it, like they're Peter Traver, drop in Rolling Stone or whatever. It's, it's, if you're a fan, you want, like,
Starting point is 00:34:28 if you're, think you're one of the actors. You're like, it's nice to hear a compliment. I mean, yeah, I guess you're right. If you look at it as like, you know, an art form, a genre of film or whatever, then sure, why not offer some critique? But yeah, I've always thought just that by itself is wild. When someone is doing that and is saying slavery should come back, by the way, that's a particular degree of crazy motherfucker, especially when you find out it's a black guy doing it.
Starting point is 00:34:56 I sort of like understand why they rank the newsworthiness of the comments. that way. Right. Because like, the Nazi stuff is known about it. Like, we reached a point in American politics where like we talked about like this in a dumb ass segment. We're like being a Nazi is kind of fine now. Right. No, that, I mean, yeah, no, you're right. And that's why I was saying about how for Fox News' demographic, I kind of get it because it's because that's part of what the and I alluded this in the video I made about this today. But it's like, I mean, I
Starting point is 00:35:25 say I alluded. I straight up said like if the comments were just limited to like the Nazi pro-slavery shit, it'd probably be fine. But all this like dirty butthole transgender porno stuff, like that's where they draw the lines. It's like, they're like, listen, I can excuse Holocaust denial, okay? Sure. But openly talking about, you know, your threesome's with your wife's sister on a transgender porn video comments, whatever, it's like, that's just, that's a bridge too far for me.
Starting point is 00:35:56 Well, that's the thing is like the news didn't cover. We're going to get to that, but the news didn't cover the threesome with his wife's sister part, right? I know. You had to go and look it up. I know, because as soon as I saw the CNN article, I was like, okay, well, I want to see the rest of these things. You know what I mean? They're like, we can't even report on some of this stuff. And I was like, I won't see that stuff. So I went and started like looking on Twitter and trying to go, you had to send me most of it. Most of it. Most of it, I saw was from you. So thanks for doing it work. It's fascinating what they chose, choose to not covered. I wanted to get to that. Because if you just follow the news of
Starting point is 00:36:24 this, you don't really get the full, you don't really get the full awfulness of the shit he was up to. If you just read because like they find it too gross to report on but like I feel like Robinson's problem is like you're being a Nazi's fine being a pervert's fine which you can't be is a Nazi pervert that's somehow a bridge too far you can't you can't you can't put the chocolate the peanut butter together or whatever so like so what are you done here is basically the level of stupidity forget that the evil the various kinds of evil and the weird pervert stuff not to look at like I'm not referring to the transgender gender porn stuff although it's weird like the way he described it was very weird and the way he's
Starting point is 00:37:04 objectifying trans people's bodies while also wanting to put them in prison is very whatever but like like he his obsec was terrible he used the username mini soldier which he spelled m i n i s o l d r right and he used it everywhere all over the internet and he didn't bother changing he he uses real email address and his account name was mark robinson on the fucking web on the website like he had not be not highly not hidden this at all and well that one thing I'll say about this dude is man you're talking about how you can't stand when people fake shit they pander in that way by faking things there's no authenticity at all and they're just griffing or whatever it's like one thing you got to say for this dude and look I know it's like under no circumstances
Starting point is 00:37:50 do you have to hand it to mark Robinson I'm not saying that but like he clearly is a full blown lunatic who has felt this way about a lot of this shit for a really long time you Like some of them you look at and you're like, are they Grypton or are they serious? And you go back and forth on which one is worse, which one is the worst thing to be. But he clearly is the real deal as far as all that goes. Because he's been doing this shit since at least 2008. You know, so he's wild. Yeah. Yeah. So other stuff he said,
Starting point is 00:38:20 I'm not in the KKK, but only because they don't let blacks join, which might be a clue to you, but you shouldn't support the organization. What is, we actually said about slavery was, quote, slavery's not bad some people need to be slaves i wish they would bring it back i certainly would buy a few and i just want to remind people like while trump's pretending that he never supported this guy or whatever he's been running around north carolina with him for like a year he endorsed him in the primary right and all this stuff has been out there about a lot of this stuff has been out there about him before he said put it on a porn site here's trump talking about well this is a few seconds
Starting point is 00:38:49 of him talking about um mark robinson mark robinson he's out there he's fighting a very good man This is Martin Luther King on steroids. I think you're better than Martin Luther King. I think you are Martin Luther King times two. I think he's going to go down as one of the great leaders. What's particularly funny about that, Mark, is correct me if I'm wrong, but I think one of these comments they unearthed, I believe, and excuse me for this, I'm quoting the man.
Starting point is 00:39:17 In one of these comments from him, he referred to MLK, I believe, as Martin Lucifer Coon. Did you say that one? Yeah, right. Yes, and a post on a porn site about how they should take down M.O.K. statue in the National Mall. Right. So, but the thing is, like, Barn Luther King appears to be the only black person that they know about. It's very fucking weird. They will, him and Kanye.
Starting point is 00:39:41 And the thing about the slavery comments is, like, weirdly enough, this is obviously a pure coincidence, not a sickness in this fucking political movement. This wouldn't be the first time just last week than elected Republican made headlines for wishing you could get their own slaves. Minnesota Representative Jeff Dotseth, Republican from Kettle River, allegedly mused that he would own slaves of a rollout today and called his then-stepson Kuta Kente.
Starting point is 00:40:04 He also allegedly kicked and punched the family's 14-year-old dog. So just like a bunch of fucking winters running around out there. It's like, I don't really know what's going on these people, but like, they think it's cool to kill dogs. They want to bring back slavery. It's because it's part of the whole, like, Trump cancer that's infected the American rat.
Starting point is 00:40:21 And the thing is like, the stuff has always been there, but how he's emboldened them to be as crazy as they've always been or to be crazy out loud. And people have talked about that to death for years. But like the whole owning slaves thing, bro, you think Eli-Musk wouldn't own slaves if he could or Jeff Bezos wouldn't own slaves if he could or so many, like, of course they would.
Starting point is 00:40:42 But it's like they used to have the good sense to pretend otherwise and they don't anymore. And they always have people that don't that didn't have the good sense to pretend otherwise. but they weren't frontrunners in major elections for the party. Do you know what I mean? Until Donald Trump. Now they're like they're the face of American conservatism,
Starting point is 00:41:05 people that don't have the good sense to not be insane out loud. And, you know, that's all Donald Trump. Like, he did that. The cooks and grifters used to be evenly distributed around American politics. And I think what they've done is they unify them all along with like the, authoritarian's all under the Republican banner. It used to be like, okay, you get it, like, some sort of, like, Democratic con artist. You'd have a same upstanding Republican who just has shitty views run against him,
Starting point is 00:41:34 and the system would sort itself out outside of, like, Bob and Indezzance in Jersey or whatever. Now it's like, if you got an, if you're, if you're a person who wants to vote conservative, Mark Robinson's going to win the primary, where the fuck do you put your vote? Right. Do you know, like, you want to be like, well, you've got to vote, sorry, but you've got to eat, Well, you consider a shit sandwich and vote for Democratic candidates for a few cycles until they get sane again. But they're just not going to do that. So we're just trapped in this fucking hell.
Starting point is 00:41:59 So I mentioned that Robinson listed his full name on his profile on nude Africa, as well as the email address he'd used on numerous websites across the internet for decades. Also used to end mini-soldier everywhere. But the next craziest part of this was skip that first image, Laura, is one of the way they figured out it was him is because he kept going on rants on his main social media about how he found Hock Tua unfunny. like so you compare the language here like on mini soldier he would say I don't give two shakes
Starting point is 00:42:27 and then on his main social media he would say we don't give two shakes he would use his expression that no I never heard anyone else in the planet you use called gag a maggot on both on both as mini soldier
Starting point is 00:42:37 on nude Africa and also on his main social media it also called people dunderheads he called you know hawk tuba girl a dunderhead with a space between the words just like you did
Starting point is 00:42:47 so if you compare the language here it's clear like any sort of profile or be like yeah it's the same motherfucker. So just like, maybe don't rant about a teenage, like a 21 year old girl's sexuality in our online presence as if it matters politically. Like, just like, you can just stay out of it. Maybe you won't get caught, you know, for being a weird perv on a, on a, you know,
Starting point is 00:43:04 on a porn forum. As far as any of this stuff that's like materially, like, close to criminal, he posts this weird confession about describing his own sexual arisen as adult from the memory of secretly peeping on women in a public gym shop. hour as a 14 year old and he said I sat there for about an hour and watched several girls came in and shower he wrote on nude Africa I went peeping in the next morning but after that I went back the ladder was locked those two towns were the only times I got to do it ah memories so he's like enjoying the memory of you know peeping in a women's shower
Starting point is 00:43:41 so this is kind of what I'm saying it's like you know very famously or infamously I guess that exact thing is a huge set piece of or scene in the 80s classic sex comedy porkies right? They do that. They do that exact thing. But it's like people in 2024 are supposed to
Starting point is 00:44:02 acknowledge like, yeah, we are not done that. Or it's like, or people bring up that scene and they're like, yeah, that's, you know, love that. That's regrettable. But like, but they're not doing that anymore. They're just like, yeah, that's when
Starting point is 00:44:17 America was great. That's when That's the way things you're supposed to be. We need to get back to that, you know, and that's the difference, you know. Yeah. It's like, like, it's one of those things where like, if you've been like, like, if you told me we were to borrow, like, yeah, one time I peeped in a shout when I was 14, I'd be like, well, as long as you recognize you shouldn't still be doing it. Like it's like, he's like, he's not doing that. He's like, I wish I could still do it now. I wish I could still do it.
Starting point is 00:44:40 Yeah. Right. Right. So like, like, as Trey said, CNN, me quote here from CNN, CNN, CNN is reporting only a small portions of Robinson's comments. the website, given their graphic nature. I don't know why they made this choice. Because, like, you could also just have a link if you'd like to read the full content, click through here if you're an adult, right?
Starting point is 00:45:00 Confirm you're 18. It reminded me, like, when I worked at the newspaper back in Dallas, like, we had one of these stupid meetings where it was like, how do we get more traffic to the website? And, like, I used to go read smoking gun, right, where they would post, like, primary source documents. I'm like, we get a hold of police affidavits all the time. They're pretty interesting reads. I know we can't print stuff.
Starting point is 00:45:20 a family newspaper because we're owned by Disney or McLeod. We got sold so many times. I can't remember. You don't want to be... But like, if a person a consenting adult wants to read it, we're not talking about delivering it to somebody's kitchen breakfast table. We're talking about the website where they can click through and they want to read it. And then, remember when Terrell Owens overdosed
Starting point is 00:45:36 on drugs and you play for the Cowboys? It was a big deal. We finally did that and it went viral and they took credit for it instead of being like, oh, hey, gee, that was a good idea. Anyway, but I don't understand what CNN wouldn't do this, make it a way for people to access it. They're just being prudes about like stuff that anyone could easily find on the internet. Um, but it opened the floodgates
Starting point is 00:45:59 where everyone else like was able to easily find this shit, including, he posted book recommendations on nude Africa. Like, let me quote here from one of them, quote, mine cough is a good read. It's very informative and not at all what I thought it would be. It's real eye opener. All right. So some enterprising, uh, person, found mini-soldier as a username on a forum called Ultimate Soldier where they posted photos of his Nazi Wafin SS doll collection. If you got this photo, here's Mark Robbins and posting pictures of his Nazi dolls.
Starting point is 00:46:33 Why do you have Nazi dolls? All right. How big are those dolls? Was this a... I don't know. There's nothing for scale. I'm assuming they're like, you know, like a G.I. Joe doll size.
Starting point is 00:46:45 But I guess they could be full size mannequins. There's no way to tell. That would be truly insane. right there. He's got a garage full of like full size lifelike Nazi dolls, but I mean, I wouldn't put anything past this guy. Right. Yeah, the Daily Beast
Starting point is 00:46:59 was fairly quickly able to realize that he used the same email that he used on all these different forums to sign up for accounts on Duolingo to sign up for German lessons. Which is not at all, like would not be right. Fine on its own. Except it makes you wonder if he wants to read
Starting point is 00:47:15 MindConf and the original German just to get the full flavor of it. Right. Now, dude, when you're praising Mind Kampf, which is the most important part, but if you're praising Mind Kampf and also collecting Nazi dolls, then signing up for German on Duolingo becomes a red flag. Right. So getting back to the stuff, CNN didn't report. Here's a quote that's not too gross.
Starting point is 00:47:38 Well, it's morally gross, but not too vulgar. Fellows let your girl think she is in control and you can do what you want. I've been married 18 years and I've been fucking whoever I want what I want, including my wife's fine-ass sister who does threesomes with me and another girl we know. We both love that. Here we go. Here's where I got to do a content. Here we go, Mark.
Starting point is 00:47:56 Let's go. Yeah. We both love that ass-to-mouth thing, and there is nothing like having your balls sucked an asshole lick while deep in some pussy. All right. Sure. Now, see, now, honestly, I would never read comments on a porn site, because, again, that's not what I'm there for. But if you get deep into the comments on a porn site, that that's some penthouse forum shit that's pretty part for the course that's the question
Starting point is 00:48:24 that's the question here is if either way he's an awful person like he's doing the stuff behind his wife's back unless she's into this stuff too right he but he's lying on the internet I say he's behind her back so I don't know whether she's writing it with him or whatever but it becomes whether it's like is this just pure fantasy or is he really doing this shit is it really like but again but even if it is like pure fantasy I'm saying even if it's pure fantasy in that type of context but also it's like it's kind of par for the course for we all are, i.e. the comment section of a porn site or whatever. But when that same dude then veers off into a diatribe about how Hitler was right and slavery was cool or whatever.
Starting point is 00:49:01 And that's when it's like, well, this dude's a fucking even more of a lunatic. You know what I mean? Like it's just, and when you put it all together and then add on top of it that he is the Republican nominee for the governor of North Carolina. That's what a primary. You want a contested primary, the voters, the Republican voters chose him. They thought, that's my guy. That's when it all really becomes a problem, you know, which is why we're even talking about it, obviously. But yeah. Should I, we're usually R-rated not X, right? But I, I, I kind of feel like people should know who they might be voting for if they live in North Carolina, right? All right. So I'm going to try to, I'll do a little censorship here. I'll be not putting this on the screen because it's like,
Starting point is 00:49:44 had me another hot morning with the wife's sister. She brought along her laptop. And this and watch some vids here on nude africa the one that really got us hot was called wet anal that vid got her soaking wet and y'all know what i did right that jesus christ i need to shout it can't go mark you do grace that ass was wet slick and good and pissy and i licked and suck that pussy and assholes my face was covered with her funky juices he talks about having sex with her with her dukey shoot which is like yeah dukey shoot okay they did There's a lot of, there's a lot of pee and poop play in here. I don't want to, I don't want to read it.
Starting point is 00:50:23 I don't want to read him more. He loves peeing on poop. All that. Okay. Okay. Loves it all. So, again, North is a fantasy. Either way, I think his wife, I know what's going to happen.
Starting point is 00:50:33 His wife's going to pray with him. They'll talk about it at church and then she'll forgive him. Right. I know how this goes. But like, to the point in this matters, it's insanely frustrating that the Nazi stuff wasn't disqualifying for a ton of people. Neither was the horrible sex opinions. but being honest about his sex opinions
Starting point is 00:50:50 in a way that's not illegal is mean to his wife, but doesn't involve anybody other than his wife's sister? I have no idea why this is the stuff that really affects American politics, but it does. Here's a clip from CNN where sex sales, baby, I don't know what to tell you.
Starting point is 00:51:07 Turns out there are a lot of stories people talk about and then they really fall flat. People aren't interested in him. This is a story people are really interested in. Google searches for Mark Robinson And since that K-File story broke yesterday versus the prior 24 hours, nationally searches for Mark Robinson up 8,540 percent. My goodness gracious, how about the great state of North Carolina, up by more than 4,000 percent, despite the fact that they were Googling him plenty before. The bottom line is a lot of interest in this.
Starting point is 00:51:37 So, you can say you're a Nazi, and then slavery wasn't that bad, but you've got to say it at a chamber of commerce meeting, not on a porn form, is essentially what we're learning. here. All right. Yeah. And also, I just want to say, like, if in the future we're still doing the show and it comes out that some prominent Democrat politician was leaving comments on a porn site, not about Nazis or slavery hitting or nothing, but purely just about like, ooh, I love pee and poop. God, it's filthy and nasty and I love it or whatever. And I say, like, hey, I'm fine with that. It's not hypocritical because, like, hey, this ain't, this ain't, no of this is about king shaman. It's like we said before, it only matters, really, him being super to transgender porn only really matters at all because he calls transgender people filth and says
Starting point is 00:52:20 that they should have to use the bathroom outside, like the animals that they are. So when you are a person like this who publicly espouses these beliefs and represents these things, then this shit matters. It makes you a hypocritical piece of shit. If you just like typing out fantasies about your sister-in-law's, you know, a piss smell or whatever, you know, do you as far as I'm concerned. but it's when you put it all together that it, you know, it becomes a problem.
Starting point is 00:52:51 Like, obviously, I don't, I don't care about the king. Like, the part that's relevant here is, like, the hypothesis you describe, but also it's part of a political movement which wants to outlaw and wants to ban no fault divorce, all right? Right. So he wants to have a legal regime in place where his wife would not be able to divorce him
Starting point is 00:53:08 if she found out all this stuff. That's the part that's pertinent here. So, like, also, just enjoying his downfall. I'm enjoying this asshole being embarrassed. I'm just being honest with you. A little Shaden Freud. There's a German word you should know, Mark.
Starting point is 00:53:22 Shaded Freud. So, but it's also important to understand, like, this stuff isn't, like, incidental. This is why the fucking weird thing caught on so much. Like, this is a perfect example of it. If you want to understand modern American conservatives, especially the chunk that spent a huge amount of time online, Mark Robbins spent a ton of time online. When he wasn't posting on nude Africa, he wasn't posting on nude Africa, He was all over Facebook posting Nazi shit.
Starting point is 00:53:46 He was all over Twitter posting Nazi shed. He's been doing this, like Trey said, since, like, the Internet was invented. So the American rights basically comes down to two kinds of guys, all right? You got the boys who think the porn I'm addicted to is good, and the government should force women to take care of my needs in that particular fashion, versus the guys who think the porn I'm addicted to is bad, and the government should make it illegal. That's basically the two kinds of guys that make it.
Starting point is 00:54:14 up this whole fucking world. And Robinson's problem was he's pretending to be the latter type of guy when he was in fact the first kind of guy. So they're either mad that something made them horny or
Starting point is 00:54:30 mad they're horny and no one will help them out about it. Those are the two kinds of guys. And they're so close to conquering America. At which point of a civil war between themselves whether or not marriage is only between a man and a woman,
Starting point is 00:54:45 or whether Mark Robbins should be able to marry his wife's sister also. Right. And don't you think that a lot... And I mean, I think this motherfucker would be crazy in almost any version of society, it seems to me, like, but don't you think that just so much,
Starting point is 00:54:55 as I know this is not a groundbreaking comment, but like, so much as it's just like cultural societal repression, right? Christian conservative repression and that type of thing. Like the fact that they're even led to feel that they should be ashamed of these things and it's repressed for years and years. And it makes it like, you know,
Starting point is 00:55:11 the South always like leads the country in transgender porn circles. or things of that night every time all the time all these secretly gay incredibly homophobic republican politicians it's all like repression right i guess but i guess it's like maybe he's maybe self maybe he's some of all this stuff maybe he feels guilt maybe he feels right you know hates himself for his color of his skin he hates himself for his sexual proclivities and he so his public stance is just hate about hating everything he has in private i don't know but i'm not here to psychoanalyze the guy right but like the the it doesn't
Starting point is 00:55:44 really matter. The point is he should not be governor of fucking, he should not be this close to being governor of a fucking state. And apparently everyone, like the real, the real story here, and I wish we would get in the bottom of it, is who fucking clued CNN? Because it didn't feel like
Starting point is 00:55:59 if it was from the Dems who'd found it, it would have come sooner. Or, after it was too late for him to drop out. The fact this story dropped the day, the last day was possible for him to drop out hours before he could have, leads me to think it was Republicans
Starting point is 00:56:15 who wanted him off the ballot because afraid he's going to drag down Trump and make him lose North Carolina, right? That's just guessing, but like no other context makes sense unless CNN just happened to discover it the morning of the day he could drop out.
Starting point is 00:56:30 But the followout from this was pretty swift. His entire campaign team quit except for three people. He's down three campaign staffers. The Republican Governors Association just announced they pulled all funding for ads from his race.
Starting point is 00:56:45 Donald Trump has stayed real quiet. Robinson was told to stay away from a Trump rally in North Carolina the other day. As far as what Robinson's been saying, he put out a video before the story he dropped denying it, even though no one knew what he was denying. He called it Lodge from the Jock Stein campaign, the guy he's running against for North Carolina governor,
Starting point is 00:57:04 even though, like I said, it didn't make sense for Stein to drop it with that timing. He says it's going to sue CNN, even though they got him dead of the rights. They got the goods on him. And then he said, quote, there's not a man alive that's never looked at porn or did something stupid on porn because we're men. That's what men do. And I'm here to say, I've never commented on a porn video at all, much less said Hitler was right on one.
Starting point is 00:57:25 Praise mind comp on one. Yeah, right. Yeah. But they do that a lot with that type of thing where it's like, it's like, it's like a locker room talk. Right. Yeah, locker room talk. They're like, well, look, we all know we're super racist in private, right? So I got caught doing it.
Starting point is 00:57:39 It's like, no, but we're not all though, you know, or like, look, we all commit. felonies. So Trump got cut, you know, like that type of thing. It's like, no. No, that's not actually true. Yeah. This is a version of that. The funniest one to me is like, so a bunch of supporters who were experts in like information technology and computer stuff offered to help him find the real
Starting point is 00:58:02 mini soldier. And he was like, nah, don't worry about it. That's fine. I got under control. Thank you guys. We don't have to worry about it. We don't need to dig any further into this. He also said it's a given interview when he got on CNN to try to do with a reporter undercover the story and was talking about it and said obviously this is all AI which tech nerds I'm not a tech nerds I'm not a tech guy I don't understand it I wouldn't think maybe there's a possible way to back install comments on a website apparently this guy
Starting point is 00:58:33 was like nope the way this works it's like this this comment has been there since 2013 or whatever this is not there's no way to do this. The reality here, the way this is a massive diamond of Democrats is they hadn't, they hadn't found this until now, at least until now. This all stuff is out there very public on the internet. Anybody who looked, the minute somebody looked for mini-soldier or Mock Robinson's email address, all this stuff was found, all these porn comments, his fucking, he has an actually, he had an account on Ashley Madison.
Starting point is 00:59:03 We're not going to get to that. And then once that happened, reporters like, I wonder who else who wasn't famous in 2015 during the Ashley Madison hack has since gotten famous, we should check. Rufo's on there. One of Trump's campaign staff was on Ashley Madison in 2015 when he got hacked trying to have an affair with it on his wife. And so like all, nobody's looking. Nobody's holding these fucking assholes accountable at all.
Starting point is 00:59:24 And he came like this close. He was going to lose the election anyway. And I was going to lose it by slightly more. Maybe drag Trump down to defeat North Carolina with him. And because nobody, nobody looked. Right. But, you know, Mark, they have a pretty rock solid defense so far cooked up over there on Magaside, how they're going to defend.
Starting point is 00:59:41 Robinson, if you want to see what their defense is so far, what they're working with. Let's see our old buddy, J.D. Vance here in this video, what he had to say when asked about the Mark Robinson stuff. Sorry, sorry, producer, Laura, I spurt that on you. There we go. His posts? I don't believe him. I don't believe him. I just think that you have to let these things sometimes play out in the court of public opinion. Do you believe him that those were not his best of? Leadership. That's real leadership here. It's like, I don't know. What do you guys think? I don't not believe him.
Starting point is 01:00:14 But also don't believe him. So there's that. It's like, all right. It's not up to me. Things, I don't bring your vice president, but things in politics are out there and I don't have an opinion on them. You got to watch them. Things are things. And those things, sometimes they are in the media and you got to, you know, you got to look.
Starting point is 01:00:31 You got to wait. You got to see. And I just, you know, yeah. Dude, what do you? So sometimes things happen. sometimes they're good sometimes they're bad sometimes they're not anyway see you later I've been JD
