The End
you you The Adventures in Hellworld podcast talks in-depth about QAnon.
While it's meant to be comedic informative, sometimes we have to get into things like child abuse and violence against people.
Listener discretion advised.
Hello, everybody.
I am Mike Rains, a.k.a.
Poker and Politics, and welcome to what's going to be a ridiculous episode of the Adventures in Hellworld podcast.
This week, I am joined by Eric, the Deep State Operative.
That's right.
I am here, and I am ready to be ridiculous, as always.
Yes.
And I am also joined by Indrid Cold, also known as Stephanie.
Hello.
Hello.
So, just so everybody knows, we were planning on talking about cryptids and all that good stuff, Bigfoot, Loch Ness, all the other various and sundry monsters traipsing around the countryside in America and beyond.
And then Donald Trump and Elon Musk decided to have a slap fight.
Just an absolute ridiculous pissing contest that is raging as we're recording live.
Our ketamine-fueled lunatic from South Africa and our doddering old fool who America elected president for some fucking reason.
These two men have decided that they're done with each other.
It's over.
This breakup is really messy and really ridiculous.
And easy to foresee.
Oh, and it was coming a mile away.
This was coming a mile away.
I was actually surprised.
I gave them 90 days on the outside, so I'm actually impressed it went as long as it did.
Yeah, that's the thing that's really funny.
I've seen so many over-under Elon Trump breakup markers, people putting it at three months, people putting it at six months, all this good stuff.
And the thing that's really interesting to me is that I feel like, at this point, Trump is so goddamn checked out on everything that really, if he had just given Elon the keys to the country, this all could have been avoided.
But that didn't work out that way.
Instead, Elon actually got very mad that he's not running America and that he's not the big, strong boy that is in charge of our country.
And so, yeah.
But I think it's becoming increasingly clear, too, that Trump is also not the one running our country.
Oh, heavens no.
Yeah, I mean, like, the big thing, I mean, I'd already suspected it, but the big confirmation for me was when he got blindsided by finding out what taco means.
Like, his advisors did not let him know about that.
That was kind of a big hint for me, you know, flashing red light.
That's the thing that is, I mean, that was the really obvious thing that you just mentioned, but that has been pervasive throughout Trump's entire second administration, is there are so many times where the press says something to him and he's gobsmacked.
He is so stunned at what they have told him.
And the most serious of those was the four U.S. soldiers that were killed in Eastern Europe.
I think it was Lithuania or Estonia or wherever.
But yeah, there was four soldiers killed in a training accident, I think.
And no one brought that to Trump's attention.
And when the press told him, he was just like, oh, that's very sad.
I didn't know about that.
You're the commander-in-chief.
You're the head of the military.
If fucking military people die, that needs to be on your front desk.
That needs to be on your desk immediately.
I know.
He should have been guy number two who found out about that after the general who was supposed to tell him about it.
Right, exactly.
And I'm guessing they did tell him, but he just wasn't paying attention.
Because, I mean, we all know he pays no attention to his daily briefings.
To the point that I read some rumor that the staff had floated the idea of making a video presentation for the daily briefing that looks like a Fox News broadcast.
That was Chelsea Gabbard, our esteemed head of intelligence, Chelsea Gabbard.
She was the one that floated that.
She was like, we need to make the intelligence briefing.
Look like a Fox News show, so this dummy will actually follow it and actually listen to it.
Yeah, but I mean, I wasn't surprised.
I wasn't at all surprised that he didn't know about the Afghanistan thing, because, you know, that's totally in his wheelhouse.
But it was the taco thing that got me, because I'm like, okay, there's nothing this man loves more than his name in the news.
So that nobody had the nuts to tell him about it.
That really shows me that he's just sitting behind the desk and they're wiping the drool off his face for the cameras and that's pretty much his job.
Yeah.
And so, anyways.
So, let's get everybody up to speed about what's going on here.
I just wanted to share something really quick that I just saw.
I was just perusing David Icke's website and he actually, Wow.
Yes.
Oh, yeah.
I'm sorry, but that was just for me.
Turn your mic down a little again, Steph.
You're like, powerful.
You're shotgunning into the ear.
My microphone's that way all the time, too.
Is that better?
Oh, my God.
You're like an angel now.
Oh, Jesus.
Okay, okay.
Oh, serenity.
Oh, boy.
But, yeah, that's our strange bedfellows right now.
David Icke is wanting Aaron Huber to come in tweets.
You saw this on his Twitter feed, or where was this?
On his website.
Yeah.
Okay, what's his website?
I'm trying to find it.
Lizard people aren't Jews, I swear to God.
I really mean it.
I'm not a raging anti-Semite.
I'm just a nice guy.
It's just hisname.com.
Oh, okay.
Well, apparently it's not on Google.
It's eight down.
It's like the eighth result on Google.
Wow, he's getting old Anyhow So, 2020 Suddenly, Elon Musk throws his head into the ring.
He decides, I'm backing Donald Trump.
I'm going to his rallies.
I'm letting everybody know they need to vote for this guy.
He's the man.
he's going to save America.
At this point, Elon comes Because Elon is a small child who is amused by the dumb things that have amused him for forever.
Yeah, I actually read that in the 90s.
He tried to convince Peter Thiel to rename PayPal X. Yes.
Yeah, he literally has waited his whole life to brand some market.
Some company of his ex, and he finally got to do it with Twitter.
He finally got to destroy the marketability of Twitter so he could have his dumb name plastered onto it.
But anyhow, Trump wins the election.
And then, originally, Vivek Ramaswamy was going to be joining Elon as the co-chairs of Doge.
And then, for some reason, Vivek hit the bricks, which...
Really dodged one there.
The cunning political insights of Vivek Ramaswamy.
You've got to wonder what would have happened if somebody with some actual business acumen had been helping run that department.
Right, who knows?
But I mean, from what people are saying now, and what it looks like now, is that basically...
Time for a little blackmail.
That's not entirely fair.
It also shored up all of the government contracts that Elon's getting through his various companies.
Yes, which we're getting to in a moment.
Doge happens.
We get to learn about big balls and all the other 20-something or teenagers that are helping Elon make America's government efficient again.
And Elon ends up not finding any fraud or waste because he's not a forensic accountant.
He couldn't find these things.
Knock me over with a feather.
Yeah, yeah.
And so after Lord Dum Dum crashes and burns spectacularly with Operation Do the Thing I Can't Do because I'm very stupid.
He basically reports about $9 billion in fraud to the government, which is nothing.
$9 billion is literally pennies.
And the Congress is like, yeah, we're not even going to enact those cuts.
We're not even going to do that.
So Elon basically kills a bunch of children in Africa by fucking up their AIDS medication and other horrible disasters that he did.
And then achieves no actual savings for the government.
His quote-unquote findings are not even put up into the bill for review.
And at this point, Trump and company are like, Okay, Elon, your time is the head of Doge is over.
Have a good one, buddy.
You did a bang-up job!
And it's at that moment that Elon looks at the situation and says, Fuck you.
He's like, no, I did not do a bang-up job.
The bill that you passed through the House and are trying to pass through the Senate is dogshit and full of more spending that's going to balloon the debt.
The whole point of Doge was to actually balance our budget.
And unlike you guys who didn't care about that stuff...
He actually bought into this stuff.
He actually thought he was going to be put in to balance the budget and get America's economy right and to finally remove all the grift, all the scamming that was going on.
We were going to have a lean, mean economic machine.
And no, the big beautiful bill is just rich people get a tax cut, poor people get kicked off Medicaid, and we're just adding $5 trillion to the deficit because fuck you, that's why.
I mean, is it possible for a bill to be 100% pork?
Because I feel like that's what this bill is.
Oh, it really is.
I mean, it's just a handout for all the people that are, like, Trump supporters.
I mean, there's...
Trump's rich supporters.
Yes, yes, Trump's rich supporters.
Yeah, regular old manga can go fuck themselves.
And they'll do it gladly.
Yeah.
Yeah, so these two sides, Elon and Trump, had been kind of whining at each other a little bit.
And then today, today it's gotten really wild.
Today, it's exploded where both Trump and Elon are now openly fighting with each other about the Big Beautiful Bill and basically Elon's role in government.
Because Elon basically wants to run the country.
Elon wants to be the president, and he thought He thought that Trump was going to be the Theoden to his Saruman and he was going to have somebody else be the Grima.
JD Vance was going to be Grima and like give all the orders.
I would say Vance, but Grima never banged a couch.
Green was a creepy dude.
So, the fact that Trump defied him is made Elon so furious that now he's just crashing out on social media.
And the thing that's really crazy about this is that Trump is responding to him, which is like...
And it just makes it so frustrating that this is what our media wanted this whole time.
When they ran Biden out of the election, when they just pouted that Kamala wasn't doing enough interviews for them, they just wanted Trump to win.
So that this kind of shit would happen.
And we would have these kinds of dumb, weird things going on where Trump is now posting on Truth Social about maybe taking away Elon's government contracts and all this stuff.
I mean, why is, like.
This shit shouldn't be fucking happening.
Yeah, here it is.
The easiest way to save our budget, billions and billions of dollars, is to terminate Elon's government subsidies and contracts.
I was always surprised that Biden didn't do it.
Also, Elon was quote-unquote wearing thin.
I asked him to leave.
I took away his EV mandate that forced everyone to buy electric cars that nobody else wanted, that he knew for months I was going to do, and he just went crazy!
Crazy in all caps.
Which, admirable restraint that there was only one word in all caps.
Yeah, oh god, oh man, I mean, yeah.
Though wearing thin is in air quotes for no reason.
Yes.
Whenever I see him throwing in quotes for no reason, I picture the skit from Saturday Night Live when Chris Farley would be that one guy with the glasses and he'd describe himself with air quotes.
I'm not safe around children.
You can't see me doing it, but when I emphasize the words, I was doing air quotes.
Was that the van by the river?
It was like him.
He was a similar outfit to that guy, but yeah, it was a different character.
I can imagine the air quotes.
Oh, so anyways, we have our latest dumb update in all this bullshit.
Before we get to the big one, I wanted to mention one thing, because I think it's funny because it's currently his pinned tweet.
Elon has one of his famous surveys up, and it says, is it time to create a new political party in America that actually represents the 80% in the middle?
And who better to run to know what the 80% in the middle wants than the richest man in the world?
The richest man in the world who's a raging transphobe.
Yes.
And it's currently sitting at almost 1 million votes.
It's over 930,000.
82% yes.
And 17% no.
It's a false flag.
That's a false flag.
None of those people who are voting are real.
That's right.
They're all bots.
Crisis accounts.
Except for me.
I voted so I could see the results.
Okay.
So there's one real vote in there.
And I put yes because there's nothing I would like more than to have the Republican Party divide itself in two.
Because, I mean, might as well just hand the Democrats the election at that point.
Yes.
I mean, that's the whole thing.
For those of you who don't know, the election of...
It was 1912, I believe.
Are you thinking of Roosevelt?
No, it's Wilson.
It's Wilson's election, 1912.
The election of 1912 is basically what had happened was McKinley gets assassinated.
And McKinley got assassinated very early into his second term.
So Teddy Roosevelt basically gets a full term of succession, and then he wins re-election.
And so he basically got like seven years out of that.
It's kind of the opposite of Lyndon Johnson, who basically got his foot in the door and then had to run for re-election immediately.
So Roosevelt then makes the terrible mistake.
Of declaring that his time that he served, serving out McKinley's first term, counted as his first term, and that his re-election was his second term, so he's just not going to run for president again.
And at that time, there was no two-term limit to the presidency.
It was just a gentleman's agreement that Washington had established.
And there were a lot of people who were like, "Yo, Teddy, you should run for another term because you'll win really easily.
And being the president is awesome.
And technically you're not breaking the rules because you only would have been elected to two terms.
You just happened to get in through ascension due to assassination for those first three years." And Teddy was like, "Pound six." I'm not breaking the gentleman's agreement.
I'm only serving seven years.
So Teddy...
America's like, whatever you say, Teddy, you're the man!
So we elect Taft president.
Teddy goes off to Africa to murder anything in his field of vision for a year.
Comes back to America and basically pulls an Elon and is like, this Taft guy is fucking everything up!
This idiot!
It's Rube.
And so Roosevelt Yes.
So basically Roosevelt's just like, this idiot's fucking it all up.
I'm done with this shit.
And he runs for the Republican nomination and he doesn't get it because now the party is Taft's party.
The party moves pretty quickly.
Sorry, Teddy.
Smell you later.
Love what you did for us.
We'll call you.
Don't call us.
So, when Roosevelt doesn't win the Republican nomination, he's like, fuck it, I'm making my own party.
So he creates the Bull Moose Party, and this hands the election to Wilson on a silver platter.
Because now the Republican vote is going to be split, there's nothing that can be done to stop that, and Wilson wins easily.
And in case any political historians get angry at us, the actual name for the party was the progressive party.
It was called the Bull Moose Party because everyone knew the whole And also the Bull Moose Party, it was because of what he said at the end of the speech after he got shot.
Yeah, it takes more than a bullet to stop a Bull Moose.
Yes, it takes more than this to stop a Bull Moose.
Yes, exactly.
Yeah, again, quick saying there, he got shot before the speech, figured out that it wasn't going to kill him, and said, fuck it, I'm giving the speech.
And then at the end of the speech, he opened up his coat to show that his shirt was covered in blood, and then he made the statement that it takes more than this to stop a full moose.
I believe it was actually in the speech.
What'd you say?
Did he a bully?
No, no.
I say, actually, I think the speech itself saved him because the bullet got lodged in the speech that he had stuck in his breast pocket.
Yes.
They said the same thing for Reagan, that the bullet that would hit Reagan from Hinckley also went through a bunch of folded pieces of paper in his pocket.
Oh, well, that's good.
Yeah.
Although one thing you just made me think of, Steph, I found out that I'd have to find it, but there is a recording of him speaking, and he actually has not squeaky, but kind of a high-pitched voice, and since he's old money, a Northeasterner, he's got this very genteel accent, too.
Not at all what you'd expect from a guy who wants Box to Bear.
Yeah, it's very funny because literally we had a great line of demarcation in American moviemaking where for basically all of time itself, Abraham Lincoln had a very low baritone.
And then Daniel Day-Lewis hit us with what people believe to be the real Lincoln.
So now everybody sounds like Daniel Day-Lewis is Lincoln when they do a Lincoln now.
Yeah, because apparently there are like wax cylinder recordings of Lincoln speaking.
Daniel Day-Lewis based his voice on those recordings.
Yeah, but I mean, again, I'm just saying, before that, Lincoln was always a powerful baritone.
Yeah, because he's a 6 '3 tree of a man.
Yeah, he's a 6 '3 tree of a man who basically, before he got into politics, beat everybody in wrestling matches, was just an absolute tank of a human being.
I remember he even, like, someone interviewed him when he was like, Getting into politics about if he could have taken George Washington in a wrestling match.
He's like, yeah.
He's like, I would have tapped out George Washington.
No problem.
I don't know what you're talking about, bro.
And Washington was only one inch shorter than him.
Oh, yeah.
George was a big boy.
Especially for the 18th century.
He was a giant for his time.
Yeah, that was mentioned in the John Adams miniseries.
Like the first time Adams encounters Washington, he walks away and he says, a natural leader.
And Benjamin Franklin is his kind of like safari guide, guiding him through the other luminaries of the Continental Congress.
And Benjamin Franklin says, well, he's the tallest man in every room, so he's obviously going to be leading something at some point.
Men pick their leaders based on height, so obviously he's going to get the job.
What I was going to say is, so, Elon, so these two have been throwing punches, and I just, I'm kind of getting to the big one first, just because there's been an update to the big one that is so funny, that, like, literally, you guys are so lucky I didn't fall out of my chair when I saw this.
And by the way, this is real.
So Elon, finally, this is now 42 minutes old as of the time I'm recording this, it says, Elon, time to drop the really big bomb.
Real Donald Trump is in the Epstein files.
That is the real reason they have not been made public.
Have a nice day, DJT!
Just driving the shiv into Trump's ribs.
And you could have 20 guesses as to what I'm about to say, and you probably wouldn't get it right.
There is now a reply, a confirmed reply from the confirmed account to this from the real Alex Jones saying, God help us all.
That is Alex Jones' reaction to mommy and daddy having the biggest fight imaginable.
Alex can't even handle it.
He's broken.
Yeah, I've been going through the replies and there's some like crazy stuff going on in the replies, but I did not see the Alex Jones one.
I was going to say, two of the big name conspiracy theorists to keep an eye on with the Trump and Musk thing.
You're going to want to be very careful, obviously, unless you're someone like Poker or Eric or Haley or me, unless you have some kind of mental immunity to this stuff.
Don't go on David Icke's website.
But David Icke and Alex Jones are going to be two of the big ones to watch right now because Icke has always hated Trump and Musk.
And that caused a furtherance in the turd and a punch bowl tension between him and Alex.
And I just saw something on Ike's website screaming about how...
And he also believes in, like, depopulation of, like, he thinks that the lizards want to drop human population down to about 500 million people.
Georgia Guidestones.
Yeah, just to give you an idea of what level of crazy this guy is at.
Yeah, but his message has never changed.
I've been aware of his work for at least 20 years.
His message has never changed, and I just want to tell people it's not that he's suddenly sane.
It's just the rest of the world is so crazy that a crazy man's stuff.
Does sound reasonable.
Yeah, we've all caught up to him.
Yeah, and he's been criticizing Jones, Carlson, all the big names.
And so I didn't find anything about the Elon and Trump fight, though, on his website.
But he would be cashing in on that because he hates them both.
And Jones, he's in an unforgivable situation.
Yeah, basically, the thing about this is that these two are too big to be in a real fight, according to QAnon.
This has been something for the past week that's been roiling around ever since Elon came out against the Big Beautiful Bill.
People have been saying, look, Elon, we get it.
You're trying to find fraud in the government.
You're trying to tighten the budget.
You're trying to do good work.
We appreciate you, but you need to let the God Emperor's vision for America go forward.
You need to let this just sort of happen.
And we'll address your concerns later.
Elon taking the gloves off and not listening.
It was very funny.
I saw, I think it was Valentina Gomez, that horrible transphobe, racist, grifter girl who...
So, like, great, congratulations.
Like, she had a reply on that Elon thing, like, we need to get the two of you on the phone.
this being in public isn't good for anybody.
Like, I just love the idea that, like...
Like, She, of all people, is, like, worried about optics.
And is like, hey, calm down, guys.
Like, we need to...
Nothing good will come of this.
Oh, she's the screeching banshee, right?
She's the one who did the...
Oh, yeah, that woman should be in a straitjacket.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
But, yeah.
But I just love that she, of all people, was like, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, calm down, guys.
Guys, guys, don't wear your dirty laundry out in public.
I just love the idea.
Oh, boy.
But so...
And this is something that QAnon cannot abide by because they love these two men too much.
and as a result of them loving each other too much, they both have to stay heroes.
In like 90% of all QAnon, QAnon is very quick to be like, okay, the other guy sucks.
Trump's great.
we got this and very rarely does it, do we have a situation where you actually have to deal with, uh,
And the first example of this that happened in QAnon was Jeff Sessions with Trump, because Q had invested a lot of energy into letting everybody know that Jeff Sessions was going to crush the deep state and save America and jail all the baby-eating pederasts that swarm America.
And after the 2018 midterms, Jeff Sessions was fired from the Trump administration, and throughout the midterms, there were all these reports that were coming out that Trump really hated Jeff Sessions, that he was super mad that Sessions didn't block the Mueller investigation.
he just thought Sessions was an idiot and a dummy and he was just mad he appointed him to the job of Attorney General so when the midterms were over and Trump He wasted no time at all firing Sessions and letting everybody know that he really hated Jeff Sessions and Jeff Sessions could go piss up a rope.
And that was like literally minutes after saying that he wouldn't fire Jeff Sessions.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Basically, it was like Monday before the midterms.
Sessions is in my administration as long as I'm the president.
You can take it to the bank.
Wednesday after the midterms, Jeff Sessions is fired.
I never liked that guy anyways.
Fuck him.
Yeah, it was a very quick, very abrupt 180 from El Presidente.
And so that happens.
QAnon can't handle this because trust Sessions and all this stuff is going on.
So Q themselves even made a post where they were like, thank you, Jeff Sessions, for all you've done for this administration in our country.
And Q signed that, Q dropped Q +, which in the QAnon lore means that Trump either wrote it himself or dictated it.
It's coming straight from the chief when you get a Q +, Q drop.
And that was to maintain the kayfabe.
And Sessions basically became yesterday's news after that pretty quickly until 2020 when he ran for the Republican.
He ran the Republican field for the Alabama Senate seat that had been released.
Somehow a Republican managed to lose in Alabama, only barely due to credible accusations of pedophilia.
So everybody knew Doug Jones was going to get crushed as soon as he ran against a Republican who wasn't a pedophile.
And that's why we have Senator Tupperville now, one of the biggest morons in the Senate.
A guy who, while running, admitted he hadn't read the Constitution.
Yes, yes.
I coach football in this state, and I'm a moron, but I have an R next to my name, so make me a senator.
And the good people of Alabama were like, you got it, boss.
Yeah.
And as that whole thing with, oh, my God, I can't remember his name right now.
The pretend sheriff guy who was running against.
Herschel Walker?
Walker, yes.
I'd say Herschel Walker's campaign is proof that in the Deep South, being involved in football is almost enough to get you elected on its own.
Yeah.
We got a poll.
What happens first?
Elon calls Trump a pedo.
Trump calls Elon a pedo.
Well, I mean, Elon saying that Trump's on the Epstein files means it's kind of already happened.
Yeah.
Ja, ja.

Hilsen, Elkjøp Bedrift.
Yeah.
So, but anyhow, so...
Fuck Jeff Sessions.
I hate that guy.
I hope Tupperville wins this primary 80-20.
If you vote for Jeff Sessions, you are my personal enemy, and I will hate you for the rest of my life.
And QAnon's like, ah, that Trump, oh, that wacky kayfabe that he really fucking hates Jeff Sessions.
Oh, what a kidder Trump is.
That rascal.
And then Tupperville did win the Republican primary by a million and then became a senator and Jeff Sessions went away and QAnon was able to just forget that whole thing because Jeff Sessions didn't have the juice anymore.
The problem here now is that Elon is never not going to have juice.
Elon has infinite money, and now he wants to be the big boy.
This is not something you can just shove in the closet and forget about.
I'm looking over in the Trump is in the Epstein files thing.
I was just looking at some of their comments.
And of course, you know, some of the people you'd expect Patriot takes through in a goofy meme.
We have, Of course, somebody popped in and had to post a picture of Musk with Ghislaine Maxwell.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, I like this.
So all the D.C. insiders who have tried to take Trump down for 10 years didn't know about this, but you did?
Right.
Who on earth didn't know that Trump and Epstein were buddies?
Oh, QAnon spent forever telling us that they were only friends because Trump was keeping his friends close and his enemies closer.
Yeah.
Like, all that bullshit.
I like this one.
Wow, Elon.
Pretty please get extra security.
Like, all the security.
I don't know.
I mean, is enough security enough to protect you against the Secret Service?
Someone has a tweet where it says, it's a pity both sides can't lose.
Here's one.
Libs of TikTok and DC Drano lied to us.
They must be held accountable.
It's so sad when these guys finally realize that these guys are drifters who are just telling you what you want to hear for money.
Yeah.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
That reminds me.
There's a scene in Deadwood.
If you people haven't watched Deadwood, shame on you.
It was a great show.
There's only two seasons because HBO sucks.
But the point is that the two main characters, the main villain and the main protagonist, they're having a fight.
And they fall off a balcony onto a dirt road, and they're beating the shit out of each other.
And the secondary antagonist is looking at it, and he says, awful possibility in these events is that both men sustain mortal injury.
And then when the fight ends and neither guy dies, the secondary bad guy looks at it and says, but rarely am I that fucking lucky.
He's just so miserable.
He's like, goddammit, if only they had killed each other.
I'd be in clover right now.
This is where we are at this moment.
These two guys are not backing down.
They're going at each other.
There's no quit.
There's no sign that this is going to end in any moment.
Obviously, someone's going to grab Trump and be like, look, buddy.
We need to get Elon back on site here, somehow to some way.
But how they get Elon back on side is really kind of the issue.
Laura Loomer made a post, and Elon replied to that post, saying, for any Republicans debating what they want to do about the big, beautiful bill, remember that Trump will only be president for 3.5 more years.
I will remain, I will be relevant for the next 40. Elon's letting everybody know that Trump's a short-timer.
I am forever.
Elon Musk is going to be shelling out billions of dollars in every election for the rest of your life.
Donald Trump's not going to be on the ballot ever again.
So do with that what you will.
So he's letting it be known that he's not backing down on this.
And I just, I don't, I don't see how you can reach detente here because basically, And Trump and the Republicans are not going to do that.
They want to just commit another smash and grab and steal all this money and give their rich friends tax cuts and kill poor Americans because they serve their demon god Moloch and all that good stuff.
One thing I had to laugh about, this was before all this because he's been saying this for a couple weeks now, but of all people...
And it's like, how far off the reservation have we gone that Ron Johnson, who is clinically insane, is the guy who's like, wait, wait, this bill is bad news for voters.
Yeah.
Yeah, well, I mean, and that's the thing, is that you have, okay, Like, the standard people, like the quote-unquote squishes, Murkowski, Collins, like the two of them had kind of temperately come out as being no votes against the big, beautiful bill.
But that really didn't matter because the Republicans had 53 votes in the Senate.
So the two of them could totally have done that and it wouldn't have really mattered.
But then you would just have...
Then you had Rob Johnson, again, 9-11 truther, I don't know if I can trust the vaccines.
Like, that kook, that nut, like, just crawls out of the woodwork and is like, this bill adds so much to our deficit, I don't know if I can...
When the fuck did you become a fiscal hawk?
When did you give a shit about any of this stuff?
And then Rand Paul, I mean, Rand Paul lives only for this kind of stuff, so that was kind of obvious for him.
Every now and then he wants to be like, no, look, I'm an independent.
I'm a libertarian.
I'm all about smaller government.
Yeah.
So here are the, this is the list, like the 10 Republicans who could be no votes against the big, beautiful bill.
Rand Paul opposed.
Ron Johnson opposed.
Rick Scott.
I assume that being the senator of Florida and kicking grandma off the dole is probably...
I might be in a bit of trouble here.
I can't be in favor of this.
And then we got Mike Lee of Utah wants more spending cuts.
Like, I mean...
Based Mike Lee has come out against this thing, which is, again, he's a pilled fucking lunatic.
So I love that this bill is insane, and half of the opposition to it is not insane enough.
I don't know what's wrong with you.
Then we have...
They're like, no votes.
Senator Josh Howley is quote-unquote critical.
He stated that about the Medicaid cuts, he told the Independent, I'm very worried about that.
I won't vote for that.
Well, hopefully he talked to somebody who actually lives in Arkansas to find out what people in Arkansas think about the bill.
I'm sorry, Missouri.
Yeah.
I can't remember what state he's pretending to be from.
Yeah.
Susan Collins is quote-unquote undecided.
Oh, she's not concerned?
She's concerned.
Concerned Susan Collins.
Eyebrows are raised.
Yes.
Oh, God, are her eyebrows raised.
Collins has expressed reservations about the bill's potential effects on Medicaid and renewable energy credits indicating these issues could influence her vote.
The House bill tries to thread the needle.
I am not certain they succeeded, but I am still looking at the specifics, a.k.a.
give me some pork so I can get this over the finish line for you, Mr. President.
Yeah, give me something for the state of Maine.
Yeah, Murkowski of Alaska, same thing, no statement.
Joni Erst, the two of them are undecided.
Joni Erst misses we all die, that bastion of fucking political acumen, being like, eh, they throw you off Medicaid, you're going to die anyways.
Eh, rub some dirt on it.
She declared that the potential effects on Medicaid spending targeting the working poor is unjust and could be politically damaging.
Look, I'm in favor of this, but I might lose my Senate seat.
I mean, that's really all they're interested in.
This is, uh, this is what Nancy Pelosi, uh, the, That's the Republican mantra.
Democrats pass a spending bill, you're like, vote no, and then when the money comes rolling in, grab it and say you've got it for your constituents.
So, yeah.
Then we have Senator John Curtis of Utah, Utah, standing up to Trump, Mormontown, being like, we don't cut any reactions there, Mr. Trump.
He has expressed concerns over the bill's elimination of green energy tax credits, indicating this could affect the support.
Speaking of the Desert News, Curtis said, I'll make sure that we're taking that into account our energy future.
And then finally, Tom Tillis of North Carolina basically said the same thing.
He's also basically mad about the energy credits and saying, we need to emphasize the importance of maintaining a stable and predictable tax framework to promote domestic energy development.
Basically, you've got 10 people that are not open yeses, and you've got one, two, three, four outright opposed.
Considering this is the landmark legislation for the guy who basically is the Republican Party at this point, that's some major blowback he's getting.
Right.
Because four no's kills the bill.
They can only get three no's.
That gets us to 50, and then Vance can break the tie to pass it.
So four no's means the bill fails.
And if you've got six other people backing those four no's who are saying, I've got some concerns about this, then you're in a bit of trouble.
You're in a little bit of an issue here.
One thing, because I'm not too clear on the...
This, oh, okay, great.
That's awesome that you mentioned that, because Steph loves nothing more than when I give a civics lesson.
So it's time for Mike Raines to talk civics.
This is one of the bills, like, technically you can potentially pass, like, three of these a year if you do, like, lots of, like, bullshit, but generally speaking, only one of them, one gets passed every year.
This is what's called the reconciliation bill, and reconciliation bills can be passed through a straight majority vote.
But there's all kinds of bullshit that goes into these kinds of things where you can't mess with lots of different things like reconciliation.
You can only do budgetary things.
You couldn't pass an abortion ban by a reconciliation.
Like you can only handle economic issues in reconciliation and it's supposed to be like revenue neutral.
And if it's not like, That was what happened to Obama when we had the quote-unquote fiscal cliff after he beat Romney.
In any one re-election, you had that lame duck section of Congress where they were like, oh no, the fiscal cliff!
Because the Bush tax cuts that had been passed, like 10 years before that, had been passed by reconciliation.
So now they were going to sunset and expire, and the Republicans were like, no!
Rich people need to keep their money!
No!
And that was how we got Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
Through the Congress, was basically Obama was like, let gays serve in the military and I'll let you rich assholes keep your money.
And the Republicans were like, deal!
We don't really give a shit about the gays.
We just want rich people to have more money.
And there was a couple other things where Obama got, like the START treaty, I think, got passed in that.
And there was something else.
But I remember that was the big horse trade that was made there.
And that was because...
They had to have a 10-year sunset.
And I'm sure someone might crawl out of the water and be like, actually!
and I'll be like, okay, I'm sorry I'm wrong, but that's how I know it.
But, um, so, like, So Democrats are basically powerless.
They just have to hope that the Republicans manage to step on their own dicks so aggressively that they kill the bill themselves.
Basically, the goal here is to make sure no Democrat has a fucking brain worm pop into their head.
We need to keep Fetterman in the closet, basically, is what's going on here, to make sure nobody's like, You know, wait a minute, maybe this...
Get back in the box.
We'll let you wear your shorts on the Senate floor if you shut up.
I mean, whatever you want.
Just fucking don't say anything stupid.
So, yeah.
What the Republicans fucking ruin this for themselves.
Yeah, I have.
Yeah, I'm sort of.
I'm not sure how I feel about donating to his camp to Fetterman's campaign.
I mean, I am glad that Dr. Oz isn't in the Senate, but...
Yeah, yeah.
It's one of those things where it's like really...
The big dude in the hoodie and shorts, he's real America!
So we had that little, like, proxy Bernie-Hillary war again, and then Fetterman won.
And then it turned out that Fetterman's just, like, the biggest Israel guy in the universe, and also apparently fucking hates being a senator.
And it's like, great, man, why'd you even run for the job then?
I mean, did the stroke really fuck you up that bad?
If so, I don't know, resign, something, anything.
I mean, just whatever.
But that's...
For those of you who don't know, this bill has passed the House.
It is now in the Senate.
Republicans have a 53 to 47 majority in the Senate.
Go ahead.
I was just going to say, the phrasing on that is a little, because that threw off a lot of people, because I had to explain to some people, they're like, wait, so the big, beautiful bill passed?
I'm like, no, it passed the House.
I thought it passed the House before.
I'm like, no, it passed the House committees before.
Now it passed the House.
We need to find a better way to explain this so that people who aren't political junkies like us can understand what's going on.
Right.
So here's your civics 101.
This is your schoolhouse rock how a bill becomes a law kind of thing, which is basically Yeah.
You better swing.
Oh, I didn't swing it.
There's no karaoke here, but the bill is in a committee in both houses, passes the committee in both houses, goes to the floor for a vote, both houses vote.
And now, if they did this all on the same bill, it all worked out, and then the president signs it or vetoes it?
But let's say that the House had its version of the Big Beautiful Bill and the Senate had a different version of the Big Beautiful Bill, and they both passed.
That means nothing, because the Constitution dictates that both houses must pass the same bill before the President can sign it.
So what happens then, you ask?
Well, the answer is that that bill then goes to what's called committee, where, like, X number of representatives and X number of senators get into a room, they argue over the bill, and then they eventually hammer out the final bill, and then both sides revote on that new final bill, And then that goes to the president for a second term.
But there'll be none of that here because...
Because they basically knew that if they tried to pass two separate bills, then go to committee, the lunatics in the House would never compromise with the less lunatics in the Senate, and the whole thing would just crash and burn anyways.
So basically, the Senate is being thrown the House bill and being told, take it or leave it.
All or nothing.
Either you guys fuck Trump's agenda up, or you don't.
Your call.
And Rod Johnson, of all people, was like, I'm fucking up Trump's agenda!
Screw that guy!
And it's like, holy shit, really?
Oh, I'm taking a look.
The ketamine kicked in because Elon's posting a lot more now.
Oh, God, yeah.
Let me see, there was one.
Oh, apparently I'm not sure.
Ian Miles Chong, or is it Chong?
Ian Miles Chong, I believe.
He's decided that he's on Team Elon.
I see this now.
President versus Elon, who wins?
My money is on Elon.
Trump should be impeached and J.D. Vance should replace him.
We're already moving to remove Trump.
Oh my god.
Is this going to be like that one Portlandia episode where the couple breaks up and they have a big court?
Hearing to decide who gets which collectible animals and stuff.
I mean, this is...
Trump is a shitty person.
People in their direct orbit are shitty people.
When you, as a shitty person, attach yourself to other shitty people, guess what?
You're going to be swimming in shit.
Don't go swimming in a sewer and get upset when you bump into a turd.
Yeah, that's really what this is.
I mean, impeachment is interesting, but I mean, if I was Elon, and Lord knows I only want more of this infighting and drama to happen.
Help a bro out here.
Let's address the elephant in the room here.
Let's talk about Trump's cognitive decline.
Let's talk 25th Amendment here.
Let's go.
Let's get the big things on the table.
You already hit Epstein Island up.
Let's go 25th Amendment.
Let's go.
Everybody, I want to let you guys know.
I talked to Trump.
He doesn't even know what time of day it is.
The dude ain't all there.
He's gone mentally.
We need Vance to be president because we need a president.
We don't have one right now.
Trump's an empty suit.
He doesn't know what's going on.
He doesn't even know his own name.
He doesn't even know he's Donald Trump.
Yeah, someone was talking about how apparently he likes to give out his personal cell phone number to other world leaders and stuff, and he'll answer his phone even if he doesn't recognize the number.
And I was like, well, that doesn't really mean much.
I doubt he recognizes his own phone number.
Yeah, no kidding.
But here's another one.
As of 13 minutes ago, Elon Musk says, in light of the president's statement about cancellation of my government contracts, SpaceX will immediately, I'm sorry, I'm adding words, will begin decommissioning its Dragon spacecraft immediately.
Yeah.
So yeah, he's threatening to take his ball and go home now.
Yeah, he just quote tweeted another person talking about Trump being on Epstein's plane at least seven times.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
And then Adrian Dittman said the world's greatest fiction writers couldn't have conceived a timeline like this.
And then 20 minutes later, Elon jumped off that account onto his main account to retweet it.
Yeah.
I can't remember.
Did we ever find out if Adrian Dittman is really him or not?
It isn't him.
It is a separate person.
They cracked that pretty good on Knowledge Fight.
Okay.
And there were several, like, articles.
I think some other, like, researchers or reporters looked into it, and they were able to confirm that it is a different person.
Okay.
Looks like Elon Musk just posted a rumble video with, this looks like Scott Adams on the left, and I don't know who the other guy is, just some generic old white guy.
Could be RFK Jr.
Scott Adams on the left.
Now there's something you won't hear every day.
Altiboks.
Bedrift.
Yeah, Torstein, kanskje du kan break the news?
Nei, altså, Simon, du og jeg hadde jo et ledemøte, og der sa jo du noe smart.
Ja, det var jo kommet litt et spareforslag fra deg, Torstein.
Ja, at du sa det var noen bekymring om at frukten var blitt så dyrt.
Jeg hørte at det hadde gått opp med 15 prosent.
It was you who said it.
Får vi ikke mer frukt?
Oi, det...
Nei, nei, men da har Lise bestemt da at frukten forsvinner.
Hæ?
Dessverre.
Dessverre.
Redd frukten.
By the ICE-Bedrift.
Bedriftsabonnementet, which gives you more for money.
ICE!
Get me, hey, get me.
you Thank you.
On the left side of the screen, how about the hat?
Yeah, you know, the other guy might be the source of the video, because the source of the video is Arjun Kamani.
Okay.
No, that doesn't look like him.
Arjun Kamai looks like a young dude who...
Yeah.
Arjun looks like Luigi.
We have a new truth 18 minutes ago from Trump.
I don't mind Elon turning against me, but he should have done so months ago.
This is one of the greatest bills with the first letters and greatest in bills capitalized.
Ever presented to Congress.
It's a record cut in expenses with the R, C, and E in record cut expenses all capitalized.
$1.6 trillion dollars capital in the first letter capitalized.
And the biggest tax cut ever, again, biggest tax cut ever gets the first letter.
I'm going to call that the war noose.
So for those of you who don't know, there's this weird QAnon nut named war noose.
Every post war noose makes, the first letter of every word is capitalized.
And that's their bit.
That's their shtick.
So when I talk about the Warnus, I'm saying that the first letter of this word has been capitalized for no reason.
It's not grammatically correct.
He's just doing it for emphasis.
If the Warnus bill doesn't pass, there will be a 68% tax increase, Warnus, and things far worse than that.
I didn't create this mess, I'm just here to fix it, all caps.
This puts our country on a path of greatness.
PNG, war news.
Make America great again, all caps, exclamation point.
So this bill is fucking incredible, and Elon Musk can suck my nuts.
Go to hell, Elon.
Don't care.
Smell you later.
I'm the president.
And I just remember one thing I made a joke.
Cause I remember that whole thing with, Tippy top.
Tippy top.
Okay, so I said, so I went on Twitter and I said, okay, just to prove that the deep state is really running the government, in the next week, I'm going to have Trump say the word beautiful at some point.
Right.
I mean, the joke being that he calls everything beautiful.
But, like, within that week was when he announced that this budget thing was going to be called the one big beautiful bill.
So I'm like, look, I named it the deep state.
We're in.
That's the awesome concept of...
yeah I mean it's just this is just really ridiculous I mean I mean I I mean, I want this bill to be killed because the bill sucks.
It's terrible for America.
It's a really terrible piece of legislation.
But Trump's backing it.
He wants it to pass.
And now you've got crazy, rich, right-wing lunatic.
Who is, like, openly fighting it and basically declaring, I'm going to start, like, I'm either going to Tea Party the Republican Party or I'm going to start the X Party.
Like, Elon's basically telling Republicans, I'm going to fuck your shit up.
And I got the power to do that.
And that's where we are right now, is just you have these two mentally unstable, stupid men.
Who are now in a pissing contest, and there's no off-ramp.
I mean, I said this earlier, but there's no way Trump could be like, oh yeah, I'll renegotiate the bill for you, Elon.
Because if he bends the knee to Elon, it's over.
So there's no way he can give in.
And there's no way Elon can say, oh, I'll let the big, beautiful bill pass as it stands now.
I will accept that.
They've both drawn their line in the sand.
There's no turning...
and then Vlad blew his plane up a few months later and killed him.
Because you fucking...
Pergozin, that was it.
Pergozin, he was the idiot who Yeah, he was like, I'm gonna take a coup and take Moscow!
And Vlad's like, don't do that, bro.
Come on, let's be bros.
And then Brugosan was like, okay, Vlad, we're bros.
And then Vlad's like, this beautiful plane I got for you.
Get on it.
and then the plane blew up and it was all over.
It's just like...
Right.
But this is the thing.
Trump can't put Elon on a plane.
I mean, it's just that simple.
Like this is...
Meanwhile, we have Alex Jones pissing himself like, oh, my God.
Oh, man.
Dan and Jordan have to be drooling over their next episode and watching Alex cry over Daddy fighting Daddy.
I said this one I just saw three minutes ago.
Musk posted, the Trump tariffs will cause a recession in the second half of this year.
So he's just...
Yeah, he's got one of those fucking, he's got a drum and then he's got like 10 more drums behind that drum.
He's got big balls and the rest of Joe is just like dropping the drums on the ground and reloading the next drum so he can just keep spraying.
Oh, he is going to be so deep in the K-hole all day today.
Just firing, firing, firing, firing.
Oh my god, what an absolute disaster.
I mean, couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of scum.
I mean, they all deserve this.
They all deserve each other.
I mean, I totally saw this coming because this is just...
But again, I am surprised it lasted as long as it did.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, I was, like...
Right.
I mean, and the thing was, is that, like, it is truly amazing to me that nobody in Trump's inner circle, nobody in that group looked at Elon doing those fucking Nazi salutes and was just like, we got him.
We got our way to distance ourselves from this clown.
Like, you just, like, you throw Elon under the bus, you just have Trump get up there and be like, look, I don't know what was in that man's heart when he made those gestures, but we just can't be doing that.
We're turning the page, this is a new administration, we're moving along, so can't be having that.
We're trying to unite all Americans and whatever.
And then if Elon wants to fucking crash out over that, he can crash out over that.
You made some Nazi salutes.
Them's the brakes.
That's life.
Yeah, it's...
I mean, it's like on the one hand, this is what I thought would happen, but on the other hand, I was not expecting it to go so far that Elon would say, yeah, Trump's on the Epstein list.
Film at 11. Yeah, just the...
He just can't help himself.
I mean, I don't, I truly, I don't understand how Trump and the people around him didn't see this coming a mile away.
And you literally could have just found And that's all nothing.
and you could have passed the bill and then like a month later you could have passed the bill reversing those cuts and no one would have noticed or cared.
And the Republicans and Trump just spat in his eye and were like, fuck you.
Even this, which is like fucking finding a bunch of pennies under a sofa cushion.
We won't even give you this.
You don't even get these crumbs, Elon.
Go fuck yourself.
Such an unbelievable mis- I mean, this is a guy who, when the people that were saving those kids trapped in that cave in the Philippines were like, thanks for your floating coffin, Elon, but no thanks.
Elon called pedophiles.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was, um, And there was a member of the Thai Navy SEALs who died during that operation.
He ran out of oxygen while he was ironically placing extra oxygen tanks.
And yeah, and Elon's design was very bad.
It literally was a coffin.
And it didn't take into account the intricate nuances of navigating a cave underwater, especially a cave that isn't normally underwater.
That cave had almost zero visibility, which they call zero viz in the diving community.
They couldn't see because it was a flooded cave.
And Elon's like, oh, well, let's just make like a little coffin and pull them through.
No, man.
And then he called that guy a pedophile?
Nah, man.
Nah.
That ain't cool.
He's also an anesthesiologist.
I'm like, you are two times out of your league, Elon.
Also, I do encourage Elon that he should try cave diving.
Politically.
Politically.
Sorry, but that's just something that, you know, because of my interest in diving.
You're on the pod.
You're allowed to talk.
Sorry, guys.
I'm using my microphone to speak.
Silence, wench.
Get me up here.
That's what the pod's all about here.
Awakened Outlaw has unlocked new levels of kayfabe never previously seen before.
Oh, no.
In my humble opinion, this is a sign that shit is close to popping off.
Just ask yourself how much attention this post will cause, and then consider how everyone will be thinking and talking about the Epstein files here and worldwide.
In fact, now the left will be begging for the Epstein files.
This is too good.
Oh, the kayfabe.
Oh, the kayfaving.
Oh, my God.
I had a funny feeling my close personal friend, Awakened Outlaw, would find a way to bring it around and be like, no, this is actually all part of the plan.
Yeah.
Oh, the absolute, the planniest of plans.
It's so good.
Oh, boy.
And we got three and a half more years of this.
Yep.
Ah, probably not.
Well, I mean, we have until he goes up to that big McDonald's in the sky, politically.
I mean, that is, well, I mean, that is the, holy shit, did you see the fucking video for him doing the travel ban?
No, I didn't.
Oh, so like, basically, Trump is behind the Resolute desk.
His hands, like, he has his hands on the table, and, like, his right hand is, like, crushing his left.
It is, like, he's got his hands in a very awkward grip.
It's, like, one of his arms is, like, dead, and he's holding it with the other arm.
It's on my timeline.
If you look for it, you'll see it.
But it's like...
You would think you'd just have your hands crossed or steepled on the desk when you're talking.
But no, he's got one hand and a claw grip on the other one.
And as usual, one of his eyes is basically swollen shut.
And they didn't do any cuts.
They didn't do any B-roll in this thing.
It's just two and a half straight minutes of him looking at the camera and slurring his words as he's just like, we do not want these people here in America.
I'm not a doctor, but that sounds pretty strokey.
Right.
It's like, Jesus Christ, did this dude have a fucking stroke over the weekend and they were fucking covering for it?
Because he looks like sh**.
I see what you mean, because I have eczema, and there were times where I was not under control, and I would have my knuckles be all torn up or something, so I would sit, and I would make sure that I was covering one hand with the other so nobody could see it, and it looks like that's what he's doing here.
Yeah.
I mean, it's not even like...
It's not like...
His hand's not even resting, on the other hand.
It's kind of like...
Right.
And I just wanted to apologize.
I hope I wasn't...
I apologize.
My mom had a stroke and all that, so I just wanted people to know I wasn't trying to be mean.
Yeah, my dad had Bell's palsy one time, and yeah, I definitely see it.
It's like his face looks like it's sagging on the right side.
A lot more than the left side is sagging.
Right.
And one of his eyes is basically shut.
I've made this comment for years now, but when we were running, when it was Kamala versus Trump, one of my taglines was, make facial symmetry great again.
I mean, just, like, Trump looks terrible.
He's looked terrible for years.
Weirdly enough, being the President of the United States does not improve your health.
I know that he doesn't do the job, and I know that he's checked out as fuck, but he's still the President.
He still gets tasked to deal with crap that he doesn't want to deal with.
He still gets shoved onto a plane and thrown across the world.
And he has to talk to all these other people who he probably wouldn't talk to if he didn't have to.
And he's just, He just looks like a rough old dude who's just hanging on for dear life.
Yeah, the good news, though, is he's wearing a blue tie, which means it's not really him.
It's the body double.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's one of his clones.
Yeah, so the mask is just slipping.
That's what's going on there.
Right.
I mean, it's, it's, yeah, but it's just, he, It is very clear he has not read any of this before taping.
Something very weird is going on with his hands.
Sounds like shit.
And that's the thing, is that this is the stuff they release to the public.
They're like, this is good enough.
And what is that on the right side of the desk?
He's got like this, he's got like this wooden box and it's got these, I would assume that that's pens.
Oh, the Sharpies for signing things?
Yeah.
Yeah, I can see that.
Right.
Because you're...
I think like...
They don't have the fine hand attention to do it.
But in the good old days before we elected 100-year-old presidents that didn't have fine motor skill loss, if you were the president...
And that way, when you handed those pens out to the various congressmen and senators who helped pass the legislation, they could each say that that pen was part of the signature that made this part of the law.
When Lyndon Johnson signed the civil rights bill into law, he does that.
He works it over with an army of pens, and then he's giving those pens to all the various...
All these different people get the pens.
I remember George W. Bush broke that tradition, too.
George W. Bush was a one-pen guy.
He's like, ah, fuck these 13 pens.
George Bush.
Boom.
Nailed it.
There you go.
Fuck you.
He didn't want to lose track.
Get a signature and forget where to go.
Right, yes.
So it says George W.W.W.
Bush or something.
Yeah, exactly.
Or he'd just get stuck there for 20 years.
Man, remember when he was the dumbest president?
Oh, oh.
Yeah.
Yeah, poker.
Mike and I were talking about this when we were recording some of the stuff about 9-11.
And I was like, yeah, I had voted for him.
And I later, I was like, oh my god, I hate him so much.
And I was like, oh god, he's so horrible.
He's so dumb.
And it's like, man, he's the real winner in all of this.
Because he's like, who's the dumbass now?
I just saw the greatest tweet of all time.
This is like Kendrick versus Drake, but with two Drakes.
Yeah.
Wait, wait, wait.
Whose side is Kanye taking?
Undetermined yet.
Undetermined.
We've got to wait until he gets off his meds again to find a house.
And what about Chaya?
Oh, wait, wait.
Breaking news.
Breaking news.
From Yi.
Bros, no!
Bros, please, no!
Hug emoji.
We love you both so much.
So Yi is heartbroken.
Yi can't take that his two daddies are fighting each other.
Okay, I'm taking a look right now at Liv's TikTok.
She is trying to act like it's business as usual.
She's got a post about Kristi Noem.
She's got some other crap.
Democrat-controlled Maine House just voted to kill a bill requiring photo ID to vote.
So, yeah, she's just sticking her head in the sand and saying everything's fine.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
She's just doing the whole...
Mommy and Daddy are going to quit yelling at each other any time now and it'll all be better.
And now I'm going on her personal account.
No, well, apparently she hasn't tweeted on her personal account since April 8th.
Oh, God.
Yeah, this is hilarious.
Oh, now...
Yeah.
So he's all in on this.
Did I use that poker terminology properly?
Yes.
Alex Jones is basically trying to make you listen to bullshit.
He won't tell you in the text what he thinks.
He's trying to make you listen to the clips that he's posting.
The biggest thing he has is breaking.
Elon Musk says that Trump is named in the Epstein files amid MAGA civil war orchestrated by Speaker Johnson.
So Alex Jones is trying to make Speaker Johnson the new villain in this story.
Clever.
Clever.
That's a clever move for someone in Alex's shitty position.
Yeah.
Alex is just reporting right now from the text.
He's doing a live stream.
Alex is on the road right now.
He looks like he's gestulating and freaking out as he would on the studio, but Alex is on the road right now.
He's just driving in a car.
So if you're on the road with Alex, I highly recommend you give him a wide berth because he might.
Maybe pull her to the shoulder and wait for him to pass.
Yeah, exactly.
Basically, Alex's live stream is just him.
He's basically got a camera.
Focused on him from the passenger side of his truck.
So he's being shot in profile.
And he hasn't had his hands touch the steering wheel in the last 20 seconds.
As he's, like, just freaking out.
He finally put his hand on the wheel.
Thank God.
I'm worried I'm about to see Alex get hit with an airbag Oh, yeah.
So he's probably already amped up about that shit.
Oh, yeah.
Things are now going smooth for him.
Yeah.
So, uh...
Apparently, about 45 minutes ago, he tweeted something.
I guess he was interviewing Roger Stone about this whole thing, but I'm not going to listen to it because I don't want to hear either one of their voices.
Right.
That's the thing.
He's just like, I'm not going to tell you what I'm thinking in the text.
I'm going to make you actually listen to the audio.
So, yeah.
Yeah.
So, this is where we are.
People are trying to pick their sides or not pick sides at all.
they're trying to stay, like, they're trying to just stay, Yeah.
Yeah, this is...
This is a crazy day, and I'm just looking at all the various and sundry people that I'm watching.
Can I just say...
Brian Cates is live.
I'm not going to actually listen to him, but it's really funny.
Yeah.
Someone's, like, monetized ex-influencers now are all, like, nervous about whether they back Elon or whether they back Trump.
And, um, yeah.
All of Brian Cates is, all of Brian Cates is, uh, retweets are like fucking, Oh, God.
Literally, Brian Cates' whole timeline is just aggressive kayfabe.
Just hilarious.
They're so desperate for this to all be fake.
Man.
Yeah.
This is...
These people are nuts.
We've gotten all we're going to get for now.
Maybe in two hours this will be somehow dated already, but we'll see.
I did say something funny.
One guy in Elon's post about the Epstein thing posted a picture that said J.D. Vance right now, and it was that meme of Ben Affleck smoking a cigarette, but with J.D. Vance's face on it.
Yes, yeah, yeah.
Oh, I mean, J.D. Vance right now is literally Googling oath of office for President of the United States.
He's got the wife breaking out the family Bible and he's getting his practice reps in.
He's got to remember what J.D. stands for.
You've got to go full government when you do that.
I've been trying to figure that out.
Does J.D. even stand for anything?
Or is his legal name J.D. Vance?
James David.
Because he's changed his name so many times, I was starting to think maybe J.D. literally is just his first name.
Like how S was Harry Truman's middle name.
Yes.
He was born James Donald Bowman, and now he is James David Vance.
So crazy.
And his official portrait is horrifying.
He looks like a Terminator.
The lighting on his official portrait, which is on Wikipedia, is like, holy fuck!
Who decided to use that?
And I know it's fun to make jokes about, I think...
Yeah.
I mean, like, honestly, like, I just did this quick thing here, but I decided, you look at, go on Wikipedia, go to Vance's fucking page, and look at what a fucking monster he looks like.
Because Jesus Christ, he looks like a serial killer.
I mean, his photo is absolutely horrifying.
Then you click on the preceded by Kamala Harris, and she just looks like a normal politician.
It's just like, oh, look, it's a normie.
It's a normie who is the vice president.
And then you're like, no, wait, wait, Mike, Mike, you might be a little biased here.
Now let's click on Mike Pence.
And then you click on the preceded by Mike Pence, and Mike Pence looks normal.
Mike Pence is just a guy.
And it's just like, holy shit.
Like, it's like Mike Pence just, Even Joe Biden's vice presidential portrait looks fucking normal.
I mean, it's like, oh my god.
I mean, I don't think any official portrait is ever going to top Kash Patel's, though.
Oh, no.
Oh, God.
Oh.
I mean, I know that's like, he's not just, it's not a bad picture, that's just what his face does, but just that bug-eyed look he's doing, it just, I laugh every time.
Yeah, dude just looks like he's hitting the Colombian marching powder really fucking hard.
It's crazy.
Yeah.
Well, yeah.
So...
But yeah, our boy, James David Vance, getting ready to say those words as he ascends to our highest office.
I mean, holy shit.
I got to look it up.
Doesn't he have to wait until like January 20th before he can do this and then two full terms?
He's got to wait one 2027.
He's got to wait two years.
That's right.
That's right.
Two years and then he could.
Yeah.
So 10 years is the max he could be president.
Then he can get the 10 ball.
Yeah.
Because that was the thing, was that that was why LBJ was allowed to run in 68, but then didn't due to unpopularity, was that he had only gotten one year of Kennedy's last term, and so he would have only served nine if he had won re-election a second time.
So, yeah, that's the thing.
If Trump were to drop dead tomorrow, Vance could only run for re-election once.
Because he would have served seven years going into the second term.
That's my personal theory.
Vance is just staring at the calendar, waiting for it to tick over.
And then he's like, gentlemen, we need to talk about the 25th Amendment right now.
He's asking John Roberts and the rest of the Supreme Court, he's like, now, on 1-20-27, do I have to wait until noon?
Or can I go for him once the clock strikes midnight?
Do I have to wait those last 12 hours?
How does this work?
Can I at least get the ball rolling and then we hold the vote afternoon?
Right.
Can we have the vote tabled until 12.01pm on January 20th, 2027?
I can get every minute of my 10 years just crammed in there.
Boy, howdy.
This has been a day.
We'll keep you all updated as events warrant.
This is probably going to go up as quickly as I can put it up, because this isn't like cryptids or clone people or whatever where you can You can kind of rest on it.
This kind of is urgent and has to be heard urgently.
So, yeah.
Thank you all for listening.
Enjoy the show.
