They all are about the same interview with Jake Tapper on CNN. This is how he does this. This is how he creates the illusion of there being tons of people saying that the Patriots are to blame when three are the same source that doesn't say that.

So I think if I had to guess, I would say that this is an attempt for Alex to claim authority in that space. By critiquing some of the theories that he hasn't disseminated, he will be able to elevate his own theories above the muck. I think that there's some bit of intention there. That makes sense. He can't really prove it, but it feels like that's what he's doing.

Xi must crush Trump to save America is a headline.

The system knows how to take something horrible and spin it like it's no big deal.

What's going on is day by day, there is a pageant going on on Alex's show that is designed in order to alienate and radicalize segments of his audience. There was the segment on one day about veterans.

So Alex talks about the LA Times a little bit more, and he's embellishing and just completely lying about what this article says. All right, ladies and gentlemen. We have breaking news at PrisonPlanet.com and Infowars.com right now, dealing with the L.A. Times headline, Peril from Patriots. L.A. Times announces white men are terrorists. And they just say, being white inherently is terrorism. I read the quote over and over again. It is unbelievable, and I told you forever. That this was coming. In fact...

And so the idea that anyone would pay attention to the Connecticut Post when the Hartford Courant had already reported days before what the actual situation was is what put all these big newspapers and big media and big influential social media celebrities on notice. Definitely the big institutional press. There's simply no excuse whatsoever for the New York Times to run that headline when they know that the Hartford Courant, the only respected publication, and it's still a liberal publication, but a much more respected publication, had already debunked this days before. So for them to run it... They used it as a pretext, an excuse. They needed some local publication to print some headline that they could then piggyback off of so they could repeat the lie and have the lie spread around the world before the truth could get its pants on. And that's precisely what the institutional press did.

And so he plays the music video of it, and it's interspersed with pieces of news that he's misrepresenting about Somalis being terrifying and basically trying to... Create the optics of, I'm right, ha ha. You guys made fun of me, but I'm right.

Alex is pretending that he has internal intelligence about what's going on at Facebook, but all he really has is something that he found on PBS. That's all he ever has. He has no inside information. He has no high-level sources. He has publicly published articles that he covers and pretends matches intelligence that he's already received.

So he wouldn't allow that from anybody else. That's an absurd thing. But he needs to present as being fair and like, hey, we're having a great time, me and Obama phone lady. Isn't this great? Isn't this great? While at the same time trying to attack her with all of his propaganda that he can. In order for the outcome that he wants. The outcome that he wants here is presenting the idea that I have convinced her that Obama is bad. This person who blindly and stupidly was out there screaming at a Romney rally that Obama was going to give us phones and all this, I have managed to show her the light and the truth. In the same way that Mike Rotondo is this embarrassing 30-year-old who's suing his parents for kicking him out of the house, Alex wanted the end result of that to be like, I have got him on his feet. I convinced him to shave. I got him in this apartment because I am able to do that for you. By using my principles and applying them to you. It's such a valuable thing for him from a propaganda standpoint that he's willing to put up with her phone going off multiple times throughout the interview. He's willing to pretend that she's the biggest celebrity ever to butter her up with flattery to make her not feel on guard about the idea that he's just... Just bombarding her with these stupid ideas. And knowing that, okay, I'm going to say that Margaret Sanger wants to kill all black people, and I know that you don't know anything about this, and I know you're not going to look it up.

There's versions of performative conversations that easily could explain them not agreeing that Alex should be shot, but still appearing to because they missed what Buzz was saying or something like that. So whatever the case, I think Alex has a valid complaint. He's making too much out of it. But now on the 13th here, on January 13th, I think he's crossed the line. Because now Alex has successfully turned it into a victimhood propaganda narrative that no longer matches the actual interview.

But it's really, really fucked up that Alex is taking these stories and adding his own sub-headlines to them that have nothing to do with the content of the story that is his source material for it. Yeah. It's framing of the story. It's inappropriate.

He's presenting it as if he's asking her a question. She says no. And then he implies that earlier she said, we should bring all these. She never said that. Alex is just making that up. This is gaslighting. It's gaslighting his audience. It's gaslighting her live on the phone.

Alex is just making that up. This is gaslighting. It's gaslighting his audience. It's gaslighting her live on the phone. Yeah. Pretending that she said something earlier that she didn't say.

I like, I love that Alex is gaslighting his audience about the Constitution now. Like, the idea, he's like... It's next-level shit.

It suggests to me that Alex... I purposefully gave him the intro of somebody who is involved with Iran-Contra, as opposed to giving the man's full credits, which include incitement to violence in all kinds of senses. Because I think it would be super suspicious. It would be super suspicious. So Alex himself was probably like, Dude, don't bring up that fucking shit! Don't give me your actual intro.

Or, I mean, I also extend the possibility that he's just trying to troll for, like, media attention. That's possible. Hoping somebody picks that up as, like, isn't this fucked up?

And that's where the propagandist has the ultimate advantage. Their willingness to weaponize the unknown. Once all the information is out, they can't control the narrative to suit their purposes. So when there's a situation like this, it's of the utmost importance that they act fast. In that time, when the concrete is still wet, they can carve whatever initials they want, and it'll leave an imprint forever.

Did you know five nights in a row in the build-up? Well, the first four nights, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and then, of course, Friday. The four nights leading up to the shooting last Friday. Yes, those are the days. I heard about this from listeners. I went and looked it up. It was true. CNN and MSNBC both, for the four nights leading up, were doing gun control. We've got to ban the semi-autos. I mean, how much more obvious does this get?

I believe, much like there's probably a real use of a source, there's probably an example of a shooting that he believes is real. But he's not comparing Sandy Hook to any of those potential examples. He's only comparing what's going on to all of these things he's built up with his rhetoric to be triggers in his audience's mind of things that are fake. And he's doing that for a very specific reason. And that is to prime them, to prime the pump of the narrative.

But he's made it vague enough that if you're listening and you don't understand what he's saying, that will be something that people will start putting out in the social media. Rogan's going to be coming up on the show. The guys are going to actually have a fight on air. It's going to be awesome. This is just another manipulative trick that he's pulling.

I think it's more the bulk of it is he knows that this is going to be a really effective way to demonize the government and make it look like they are coming for you, and specifically coming for your guns, which works out to reinforce and bolster the other narratives that he puts out. I think that's mostly what it is, and I base some of that on this next clip.

I get newspapers attacking me because I'm calling for not having violence. The establishment is bold. They say you want to murder cops. And I go, I just said we don't want this to happen. And they go, no. You want to murder cops. You cause cops to be murdered. And I'm going, the bankers are engineering a collapse. They're going to go after the people's guns. They've introduced the bills. It's going to be a bloodbath. We don't want violence. And they say, you know what? You're a cop killer. See, I mean, it's like, this is psychological warfare.

I would say that it's fascinating to me how, like, depending on what narrative and what sort of feeling he needs his audience to have, he will tell almost identical stories as that. Like, I went out in public and everyone mobbed me. And it'll either be they loved him or they were spitting at him and calling him a Russian. Of course. Depending on whatever he needs, tons of people talk to him all the time, but they're either angry at him or love him, depending on if he needs to inspire hope or fear.

Alex Jones is literally passing off pro-corporate interest propaganda as research on his show. The fact that he says that this is from the Center for Consumer Research leads me to suspect that he was trying to muddy the waters and make it more difficult for his listeners to realize that what he was doing was repurposing corporate propaganda on his show.

But to then also have like a third of your show be about how this drag queen wants to groom your kids and stuff like that, it's just distasteful. Like, it really, it's, I know, I know Alex Jones' entire show is distasteful, but it's a different brand of distasteful when it's so like emotionally manipulative. Because that is such an issue that people are triggered by. Yeah. And rightfully so. It's something that's very, it's a soft spot for a lot of people protecting children and that sort of thing. So I just it gets your it gets your lizard brain hackles up and it keeps you from using any form of higher thought. Yeah, it overrides rationality.

Being pushed by the corporate media is scientifically designed to capture the public in a net of peer pressure mass euphoria.

This, to me, is without a doubt a visual dog whistle. Oh, no! Are you saying that Alex is trying to make you feel afraid of any large group of black children getting together and moving in unison? You bet. Oh, odd! Even if they're just children? Hey, dude, Alex just opened his film with multiple lies and distortions about the idea of Obama creating his own personal army, and then the next clip he plays is of black youths chanting in support of Obama. There's no question what image he wanted to put in the audience's head with that. It's very obvious.

This entire pageant that we've seen play out is a concerted effort by the right-wing media to manufacture a crisis. And we've seen the mainstream media be woefully incompetent in their reporting, and in essence, all they've done is amplify the right-wing version of this. You could make the argument that most of the right-wing is jumping on board with this propaganda and this false reality as a desperation plan because they know that without something big like this, a lot of them are dead in the water during the midterms.

Alex is trying to get him to, you know, do the narrative that he wants. He's bringing up Mark Dice as already. He's trying to weave in, like, I've been at parties too. Yeah, yeah. Let's get the vague narrative together that I want.

Which is, again, the right-wing talk radio structure. This is what Freedom Works and Americans for Prosperity and the Heritage Foundation did to boost the careers of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Glenn Beck in particular, Mark Levin. All of these people, they would do embedded commercials and stuff like that for the Heritage Foundation. They'd always talk about how positive their... They were bolstering them. They were buying their books in bulk to make it look like they were bestsellers. This is the scam that goes on.

All it is is to scare old white people.

But the media is trying to hype it like it's all imminent.

So now, as we know, in 2016, the person who was destroying Obama in order to create the image of a new savior is Alex Jones. The media was not destroying Obama, although there was... You know, reasonable reasons to have some harsh criticisms. The media was probably a little bit more than fair to Obama on his way out, and in no way made Trump look like the savior. That was Alex's sole job. Pretty much his entire joie de vivre at that point in time came from doing so. So in 2009, we have Alex predicting what the globalists are going to do once Obama is out. And then we have, in 2016, Alex doing exactly what he predicted the globalists would do in 2009.

Right there already, I have to pause it because Alex has selectively edited this. The interview wasn't asking if it was difficult for him to do it. He's asking if it was difficult to, like... If you are one of our many new listeners, first off, thank you. Second, refer back to all of our episodes. Right. Where when we discuss how Soros is not a Nazi. It bears mentioning, though, just the specifically manipulative way he has edited this down.

It's the day after this shooting. He has a kid from the school on there, badgers him to try and confirm the multiple shooter narrative that he wants to push, and when he gets close enough, he's like, hey, your phone's too windy, I gotta do a two-minute ad. That's what he does.

He edited it specifically. Exactly. Because it talked about eugenics, he edited it to make it fit his point. He's doing it purposefully.

The entire eight minutes of scaring people about how they're going to try and sexualize your children, all of it. What's that? Of the trans bashing, all of the idea that he's not against gay people because he thinks that the gay agenda has now been co-opted by people having sex with cars. All of it. All of it was to lead to, I need your money.

And they edited the tape, mixed it around, edited it, cut the front off, the back off, and played like a minute on the show of fake audio.

into fake uh local news making it appear that these are uh not uh centralized reports from biased people is going to do an incredibly insidious job of radicalizing people in smaller communities you're going to have the output of that be i mean i guess that's the same thing if they just watched fox in small towns too Exactly.

The media tried to push this to get us fighting with each other.

He didn't. He said that it's a legitimate bill. He said that there's issues, and that was listed as one of them. Alex is intentionally twisting his words.

He's exploiting that natural fear and natural desire to fight back and band together. He's created a community out of it. And it's a community based on fear and hate.

The Stevens brothers controlled everything in Arkansas. So if the Arkansas Democrat were about to break a story where they caught Bill Clinton screwing the farmer's daughter, the Stevens would send me in, and I would say to the Democrat, I don't think you ought to do that, because if you do, we're going to pull five car dealers and six banks advertising. And you're going to be in trouble. And so the owners of the paper, even though the journalists might get upset, the owners could crush just about anything. And that's what we did for years. They just controlled the media.

No, Take that away from it. Take the climate change part of it out of it. Alex is being tricked into thinking Putin is smart and a good leader by Putin taking a position that Alex agrees with for the reason that Putin has a strategic reason to deny climate change in the same way. Very direct financial reasons. Exactly. In the same way that these oil companies do. Absolutely. He has the exact same financial interest. And so because he doesn't want to lose these billions and trillions of dollars that he could be making if sanctions were lifted, he is super against climate change. Odd. And because he takes that position, Alex already agrees with it. He's sucked more into Putin is a genius. He's a great leader. This position that he already was flirting with of being very super into Russia is now just going fucking whole hog.

And like I've said many times, my theory is that everyone is lying to Alex, whether it be Russian media, Roger Stone, Steve Pieczenik, all of his guests and influences are basically tricking him into this box that he's put himself in that ended up being a very large part of why we have Trump as a president. So I see that and like his recognition and admission.

Well, it's not that you can't take headlines. It's that what you traffic in is lying about stories. Like, Drudge is really good and he gets a lot of traffic because he goes and he finds stories and then puts manipulative headlines on the links. Yeah, exactly. In order to... That he wants them to go. Right, and it makes for an ability to control a narrative, because a lot of the time people don't follow the links and actually read the stories, they just see the headlines. They just get the headlines. And because he misrepresents things so heavily with these headlines, and sometimes it's not outright statements, it's the, you know, statement question mark, where you can get around the, I'm not saying that.

He's just misrepresenting and misunderstanding things that he sees. And pretending that they're mainstream culture. Like that thing about aborting white babies was on a very radical blog.

And because Alex Jones is an idiot and he wants to defend his Nazi buddies, essentially, is what's going on, he pretends that, well, aha, I got you! What you're doing is you want to ban protest. You want to say that conservatives can't have any kind of a protest. And that's not true.

But also, right there, what he's doing is subconsciously implanting in his audience's mind a connection between pedophiles and Caitlin Jenner. He's trying to create a soft mental bridge between pedophiles and transgender people.

Because they consciously know it's a bunch of bull. They're using it to control people.
