Adventures in HellwQrld Presents: Senator Smackdown/ICE Crisis

We recorded this at 5:30 Eastern when the big news was a Senator being grabbed by Noem's security. We talk about the protests in California, BlueAnon and QAnon conspiracy theories surrounding all these things and all that fun stuff, and then the show wraps up with Mike making a prediction about next week's pod that is likely very accurate.

Thank you.
you you The Adventures in Hell World 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 another exciting, incredible episode of Adventures in Hell World.
This week, I am joined, as always, by Haley, a.k.a.
Chaley, a.k.a.
Arizona Rightwatch.
What up, everybody?
Everything's good, right?
Everything's doing good.
It's going to be a cheerful episode, I'm predicting, early prediction.
I remember a famed political scholar and analyst, Jon Stewart, said that if your guy loses, bad things might happen.
So really, six of one, half dozen of the other, don't get so bent out of shape over this shit.
And I'm sure that he was right, and not a cynical grifter hoping that Trump would win so we'd have more content.
And we're also joined by Eric, the deep state operative.
Hi, and I'm actually glad it's summer break right now because I am making so much bank going to protests for like $1,000 a pop.
You're a bad dude that can save the president?
That's right.
Are you a bad enough dude?
He's the guy that drops off the bricks.
He just, like, literally has a U-Haul.
He's in the pickup truck.
He's in the pallet of bricks.
Just, like, uses the cart, the wheeler, and throws those bricks on the guy.
That's right.
It's great.
I have a forklift license, but, you know, damn the man, so I don't use it.
Yeah.
Fuck being forklift.
Being part of the Rebellion means you're not forklift certified.
That's right.
I just, yeah, I just happened to my, uh, my super soldier serum.
Cause I'm Antifa.
Yeah.
I actually heard on Fox news.
I just, before we introduce Stephanie real quick, I'm so sorry.
I just heard on Fox news.
You can wait.
We're getting word that Antifa International is planning protests worldwide.
We're getting this from Andy Ngo, and I just about...
Your eyes rolled so far back into your head, you could see your brain.
You actually could look at your own brain directly.
And also, Steph is here!
It's Steph!
Yay!
We finally got to introduce her!
Yay!
Steph totally not feeling like chopped liver at this point.
My cat has surgery tomorrow so I'm trying...
Oh, okay.
Oh!
Was it, like, bad?
Is it, like, hurting her?
It has a root.
They said there's a root exposed.
And I had to, like, make, I had to spend, like, over two hours calling various people over various days just to get this appointment.
Everybody, wish Stephanie's cat.
Good vibes.
Good luck.
We love cats here on the Hell World podcast.
I'm mentally sending catnip.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Okay, before the Hell World starts, anything good happen to you guys this week?
Anything?
Oh, oh god.
Let me tell you, the funniest thing happened to me.
I wouldn't consider this to be a quote-unquote a good thing, but it was just a hilarious thing.
So I've kind of, like, beaten up all the video games that I've been playing.
I know everyone loves doing replays of Baldur's Gate 3, but I'm just really not a replay guy.
It's really tough for me to play a game after I've beaten it.
And so I was just looking for a new game.
I've also, like, pretty much tapped out on Blueprints.
I've done all I'm going to do on that.
That game, if you platinum that game, God help you.
There is so much content after you quote-unquote beat that game.
It is insane.
But I'm sitting there and I'm like, I was kind of thinking to myself, I want to play a mystery game.
I want to solve something.
I want to play a noir detective thriller.
And there was this game called The Precinct.
And the description for this game was, you're the son of a cop who got killed in the line of duty in this town.
And now you're walking in your dad's footsteps trying to figure out what actually happened to Pops.
I'm like, oh shit, I'm going to be in this seedy land of corruption with dirty cops and all kinds of stuff.
This is going to be super interesting.
So I start the game.
And you get your partner, and your partner is like the typical veteran who's like a lazy scumbag, makes you drive the car, and I'm like, oh, that trope, I'm cool.
And then you go and get a hot dog.
Like, the first thing you do is you drive to the hot dog stand, and you and your partner get a hot dog.
I'm like, okay, this is just, we're doing work in the beat 101 cop stuff.
Then you get a call for a bank robbery.
And you go to the bank robbery, and you get into a firefight where you kill five bank robbers who are just blasting away at you, and you have to, like, cover and then shoot them.
And then after you do that, you then get into a car chase, and then you chase down one of the other guys.
Like, all those kinds of civilians are being destroyed.
This is just a nightmare.
It's like GTA.
I then get that guy around.
You have to go to, like, all these, like, Like, gear wheels to arrest him?
Like, because I just cuffed him and threw him in the car, and it was like, arrest the suspect.
And I'm like, what do you mean, arrest the suspect?
I had to pull him out of the car, find all these, like, options, and then find the arrest option.
And then, like, I formally charged him with the arrest, then threw him back in the car.
And then it was like, okay, you've completed your first day of assignments.
Great.
And now day two.
And they're like, okay, everybody, we're going to be doing some parking tickets today.
And I'm like, I just killed five guys in a shootout on my first night.
Don't I get like two weeks off for PTSD?
Now you want me to go like be a meter maid?
You want me to go like check some parking tickets?
I was like, no.
This game is incredibly poorly structured.
What the hell are you talking about?
So I just was like, request refund.
I'm done.
You can't take me from bank robbery shootout to then, yeah, go hit a bunch of parking lots and write some tickets.
This game doesn't flow very effectively.
So zero out of five stars for the precinct.
I got my money back.
So that was a big win.
But yeah, that just made me laugh.
I guess I'm going to have to look for a different detective game.
Try to scratch that itch.
That was Mike's five-minute game review.
Would you have preferred the Babylon 5-5?
For some reason, that started popping up in my timeline again.
Like, where Londo kicks Jakar out of the council because now Narn is owned by the Centauri Republic, so he's no longer a representative.
That was a good scene.
And then Jakar gives the big speech.
Yes, that was a good part.
Yes.
Any scene with Londo and Jakar together is a good scene, because the two of them just, it's like they're having a battle to see who can be hammier.
Oh!
Oh, you're gonna choose some scenery, motherfucker?
Watch me choose scenery.
Oh, you know it.
That's what it's all about.
My good news is a lot quicker.
I set up my pool.
Whoa!
That's why the guns are out.
That's right.
That actually is because it's like, okay, what do I want to wear that I don't mind getting dirty?
I'm like, okay, I'll just put on a sleeveless shirt and then cover myself with sunscreen because I have zero melanin, so I burn just from looking at a photograph of the sun.
Oh, I'm right there with you.
I am Mike Charcoal Raines.
Just the moment I'm exposed to the sun, I just go up like a...
That's right.
Stephanie, have you had anything easing your minds this week?
No, she's just like, uh-uh.
Nope.
She kissed at you like a cat when you asked that question.
Lots of stress over my stupid anti-snore mouth guard, which has a huge crack in it.
And they want $500 to repair.
So I'm just like jury rigging it, whatever you call it, jury rigging the...
The, uh, so like over the counter ones and stuff, and it'll probably break my teeth eventually, but welcome to healthcare in America.
And, uh, yeah, just stressing out about the cat and...
Is your anti-snore guard for just snoring or is it for teeth grinding?
Well, it's supposed to be for the snoring, but I need something in my mouth or I will shatter my teeth because I go through the mouth guards.
I end up shredding them.
Oh, because I've been using the same mouth guard I got at CVS for like $50.
I've been using that thing for like six months.
It's been a pretty good investment.
I haven't done any damage to it.
I think it's because I have a big mouth.
The dimensions of my mouth are very small.
And it's the one that I bought over the counter like it fits.
But if I wear the upper and the lower piece at the same time as it's meant to, I start gagging.
It's like, it's too big.
It's just slightly too big.
Like, I need a kid's one, maybe.
Well, that sounds like, because one of my co-workers, she actually went to the dentist and got a fitted mouth guard.
I'm like, that usually goes for around $200, but she swears by it.
Oh, mine was like $2,000.
And that's the one that has a crack in it.
Yeah.
Okay, well, that sucks.
But I mean, that has to be more than just teeth grinding because that's...
Those things.
Riveting mouth guard talk.
Yeah.
Hello, world after dark.
Hello, world after dark.
Steph, what's going on with Amelia Earhart right now?
We're going to be doing next Wednesday's Twitch stream where I just threw the topic out there and I think it's a fun topic because there are all these different conspiracy theories about what happened to her but then there's this one group that's managed to worm their way into every mainstream media outlet and they even have a Huge story with popular mechanics saying that they're right.
This one group, Tygar, they're called, they keep trying to raise money and they claim to have photographs of her plane, but they need just a million more dollars.
And they cherry pick all this.
They're like, all these artifacts left behind on this remote island were proof that she was here, but they omit the fact that people have been on that, coming and going to that island for life.
Decades before her and after her, so anything found there.
But Popular Mechanics is on board, so hey, let's, you know.
Huh.
And she had a body double thing going on, too.
People claim that she faked her death and came back, like, as someone else.
Why would you fake your death?
Why wouldn't you finish that fucking flight?
Yeah, I don't.
I remember there was all this stuff going on about her navigator.
But it's been a long time since I read up on any Amelia Earhart stuff.
Some of the best debunks are actually found on ham radio.
Like, boards online.
Oh, I thought you meant actual ham radio.
Like, there's someone out there every half hour, he's like, just to remind everybody.
Yeah, and Brian Dunning, the Dunning-Kruger guy, his Skeptoid podcast has a few quickie episodes about the group and stuff.
And I just think it's fun, and it also gave me an excuse to re-watch a Bob's Burgers episode.
Because there's one where Louise chooses Amelia Earhart as a hero for a school project.
And it's a really sweet, tear-jerking episode.
As someone who knows nothing really about the conspiracies about her disappearance or any of the evidence that may have surfaced later, what's generally considered fact?
Is it just like disappearance?
Nobody knows?
They were off with some of their navigation calculations and they ran out of gas.
They landed on the water.
Bob's Burgers actually covers it pretty well.
They floated as long as they could, and then they died.
Oh, alright.
And it's not very romantic, but there is something deeply, deeply romantic and heroic about this brave woman facing her death.
And they even mention that in Bob's Burgers, too.
Like, so, and the fact that she went on that thing, like, seriously, watch Bob's Burgers episode.
It sums it up really well because the whole thing is like, hey, maybe she didn't succeed in her quest, but she almost got it.
And whether she succeeded or not is the point.
The point is that her doing that inspired thousands and thousands and thousands of other women.
To take chances they otherwise wouldn't have taken.
So I really liked the message behind that episode.
And it's also, I think, the best message about her life.
Shout out Amila Earhart if you're listening.
Yeah, hanging out with JFK.
I was just going to say that.
Yeah, I was just remembering when this started with the ham radios.
I was like, oh God, are we getting piddled?
Because ham radios are one of Pragmatic's biggest things.
I knew there was some Q&A guy who was all about ham radio, but I couldn't remember who it was.
Every now and then he would do one of his ridiculous posts where he'd be like, dream.
I was setting up a ham radio and showing people how to use it.
And it's like, yeah, now you probably have a class where you train people how to work a ham radio for like $150, and that's why you dreamed about that, so you could make some money.
I know, he's imagining some kind of like 1950s apocalypse where it's, you know, the few living survivors are sitting there communicating with each other on radio while mutants roam the wasteland.
Yeah, he's literally doing Fallout.
He's just doing Fallout.
Sure thing, buddy.
Live your best diseased-minded life, you fucking clown.
But anyhow, everybody, guess what?
We're not doing cryptids again.
We may never do cryptids.
The cryptid episode may happen, but God knows when it will happen.
Ironically, the cryptid episode is as elusive as cryptids themselves.
Yes.
If the world could just settle down for a fucking second, we could talk about Bigfoot.
Yeah, if we just get a chance to catch our fucking breath.
I've honestly researched so many cryptids.
I was like, oh, we'll just kind of do this one-off.
I'll look up a cryptid to focus on.
and I watched an episode of Ancient Aliens, but we've been putting it off for like two weeks now that I'm in deep cryptid lore right now.
I've been learning so much about cryptids for unnecessary...
TBA.
I actually made a Blue Sky.
Everybody, you should go follow it for the podcast where you will get posts about the podcast.
Wow.
And I asked on Blue Sky, hey Blue Sky, what's your favorite cryptid?
Nobody responded.
So how about you get your fucking asses on there?
Listeners, and you'll respond to that question.
We're putting it off another week.
They'd be like, why are you asking me about cryptids, you fucking mega scum?
Because Blue Sky is just fully blue and unpilled at this point.
It is.
Diseased what is going on on that site.
There is a lot of blue and on on there.
I think it's because the Midas...
I'm going to bring them up a bit, but I think it's because some of the Midas Touch offshoot people have huge platforms on there, and it just feeds a lot of disinformation.
Yeah.
But anyway, what are we talking about this week, Mike?
Yeah, so little happened.
A sitting U.S. senator just got cuffed and stuffed by Kristi Neom's security forces.
And we're being assured by the glorious Trump regime and Clinton, Clinton, Zilla, and every other right-wing grifter out there that, look, this guy probably had a coming to him dressed like that.
So, I mean, what are you going to do?
Sometimes a senator who walks into a room and says, I am Senator so-and-so, and I have a question at a press conference.
That is a person that you immediately shove out of the room, forced to the ground, and then subdue and cuff.
And that's my favorite part about this incident.
I mean, there's so much, we're going to talk about so much more than just this, but the fact that, like, Homeland Security and all these other fucking Trump administration social media feeds are just saying, this lunatic charged into this room unannounced and we tackled him because that's what we had to do.
It's like, no.
And they show you the video, and the video opens with him announcing who he is.
And also, that building is a secured building.
He couldn't have gotten into the building without identifying himself in other places.
And I know there's, like, this attempted controversy about him not wearing his senator security pin or not.
And it's like, well, either he was wearing it or his windbreaker was covering it.
But either way, he couldn't be in the building without being known to people.
This wasn't a public rally.
Christine Neom wasn't under a tent in a parking lot.
And some guy came running up to her podium like, and security had to grab the guy and pull him down.
No, she was in a secured building.
And this guy walked into a room in that secured building, announced himself as a senator, and then was thrown to the floor and handcuffed.
Because that's what you do in a representative democracy.
When someone asks you a question, you throw them to the ground.
and detain them.
Yeah, and I've seen from MAGA a lot of victim- You should submit them in writing through email.
She's not the fucking queen.
It was the press gaggle room.
It's, I don't know, these guys are acting like a senator is some lowly peon who has no right to...
Yeah, our esteemed puppy murderer, yeah.
But, you know, you said there was, like, there's so much, like, just to be pissed at about the situation.
And, like, it was the press room.
It was, like, the press conference room with, like, a huge gaggle of press.
All watching this.
the video that was going around was actually filmed from bill malusion who is this that fox news piece of shit who does just like pure anti-immigrant propaganda 24 7 and is a blood thirsty nationalist but um did actually manage to capture this footage um and like
Like, the White House is claiming he didn't identify himself, and it's like, you were there.
You heard him identify himself.
You don't have to report it this way.
There's something I really enjoy on Twitter.
And what I really enjoy is the people that have meticulously curated their audience and the people who have not.
Because I just clicked on the Johnny Maga account because one of the QAnon promoters I follow retweeted his bullshit about how the takedown of Padilla was totally cool and awesome and they probably should have, I don't know, used lethal force against him because fuck these people for daring to question the god queen Christy Neom.
But all of his replies are all from blue check marks who are all like, yeah, you fucking tell him, Johnny!
And it's just so funny that you can just tell this guy the moment anyone posts a whiff of dissent against this guy, they get immediately blocked.
Like, you're just, you are so gone the moment you say anything this guy doesn't want to hear because he wants to make sure that his audience is kept as trapped as humanly possible in their echo chamber and they never see a dissenting voice.
Because, like, other people, like Brian Cates and other dickbags I see, like, they post shit like that and immediately there's all kinds of people going right at them.
They're like, you lying scum!
How dare you?
How dare you?
Oh, wow, Johnny Maga hasn't blocked me yet.
I'm sure the first thing I say to him will earn a block.
I'm assuming QAnon folks are incredibly excited about...
I'm assuming they're thrilled.
Oh, you fucking know it.
This, I mean, the tanks in LA is the ultimate, this is the prophecy.
This is the prophecy that they've wanted to see happen for forever.
They've always wanted to have this moment happen.
They're basically transforming this into the early Q drops where Q was talking about the National Guard being deployed.
And they're all like, oh, shit, it's happening.
It's finally here.
And I saw some QAnon promoter declare that we're watching Q drop one happening in real time.
And I responded, I made a tweet about that where I'm like, But that was the thing, is through the early Q-Drops, there is a lot of talk about the National Guard and the Marines being used.
And then after November 4th, 2017, That whole story just melts away because now it's very obvious the National Guard and the Marines are not about to arrest everybody and save the world.
So that story vanishes very quickly.
My other favorite part about that is that Q constantly changes the story about the National Guard.
The first thing he says in QDrop 1 is, Proof check, locate a National Guard member and ask if activated for duty 1030 across most major cities.
And then in QDrop 3, he asks, why is NG called up across 12 cities?
I would think America has more than 12 major cities.
And if I was living in the 13th major city, I'd be really pissed off that the impending Soros-funded riots over Hillary's arrest are going to burn my city down with no National Guard protection.
I'd be like, hey, come on!
Can we at least protect the top 20 cities in America?
I mean, it seems really unfair that my city is going to get no National Guard protection.
You jerks.

Vi har alltid vært der ved små og store UL, og det skal vi fortsette med.
Tiden går.
In Syria bestseller.
Yeah, so that is...
The National Guard and the Marines are the early lore back when this was supposed to be Just a one-week narrative of, yeah, we're about to crush the deep state.
Don't you worry, guys.
And then after a week passed and nothing happened, Q was just like, hey, how about Saudi Arabia?
That was me.
I was the one who helped MBS take over Saudi Arabia.
You still want to follow me?
And everyone was like, yes, tell us more lies.
Tell us more lies.
And Q was like, excellent.
Now I have you.
I know that I say this so way too much, but I do think this is kind of why it was always a mistake for QAnon to be kind of described to the public as like, oh, it's people that think that Trump is fighting the pedophiles, kind of like this weak description of QAnon.
And not describing it as, like, yes, like, a Day of the Rope fantasy.
They want the tanks.
They want militarized fascism in the streets.
And, like, when you would see these polls of how many people, like, were in support of QAnon, it's, like, it's not scary because it's not so many people think that, like, Hillary is getting her face or, like, eating a child's face.
It's scary because this is kind of like how many people seem to publicly support, like, open fascism.
Yes.
Yeah, that's the thing.
That's the big problem with this movement is that it's never accurately described in the media as these people want Trump to be a dictator and to kill their enemies.
It's bloodthirsty.
It's vengeful.
And all their talk about, we just want to find the truth and we're just looking for logic and evidence and we're just calling out the media for their lies.
It's like, no.
No, no.
You just want Trump to kill people.
That's the dream.
The dream is that eventually he'll just declare his enemies to be outlaws and he'll send them to Gitmo for military tribunals.
And you'll just be like, yay, we did it!
Now it's over!
Now all our enemies are dead!
And then that will not make you happy because it will not save anything.
No, it won't.
And, you know, it's like that poem.
You know, first they came for and I said nothing.
Eventually, they're going to run out of enemies and they're going to start getting everyone.
Well, that was the thing that was so funny.
That was what was so funny in that episode of the knowledge fight of listening to Chase Geyser trying to spin the Trump-Elon kerfuffle was that he was blaming Mike Johnson for everything.
And it's just, right, Mike Johnson's deep state now.
great.
He's literally a true believer, Christian nationalist, weird freak who has he and his son monitor each other's jerk material.
I mean, this guy couldn't be more, like, And that will always be the way of it.
It will always be good czar, bad boyers.
That was when the Epstein files didn't get released.
Ah, fucking Pam Bondi's Deep State!
She did it to us again!
What I always say is, with MAGA, you either have 100% loyalty to Trump or you have 0% loyalty to Trump.
There is no gray area allowed whatsoever.
And since it's impossible for anybody except for Trump to be 100% loyal to Trump, then nobody is ever going to meet that purity test.
So anybody can be thrown under the bus at any time.
Right.
This is the old Illuminati game where...
You could never win the Illuminati game.
It's fucking when Elon had the black eye in the Oval Office.
Now he's in the Black Eye Club.
Now he's Illuminati.
Oh, the black eye.
I was wondering if Q was making that, Q people.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, they did.
They baked it.
Yeah, I saw that immediately.
Illuminati humiliation ritual.
Yeah.
Yep.
Steph, I have a question for you.
You know, it's like Alex Jones, kind of like the pre-QAnon conspiracy folks, like, you know, had a lot of conspiracies about like FEMA death camps and like tanks and all that scary shit, just like government coming for you.
So I'm just curious, since Alex is such a fucking hack, what he is saying.
And kind of like that sphere is saying about what's happening right now.
I'm sure they're thrilled.
I haven't, you know, really been tuning in to Alex outside of Knowledge Fight, but the general vibe I'm picking up just from little pieces I'm seeing and hearing, it's just, you know, they don't look, you know, He sold me on FEMA camps when I was a conspiracy theorist.
Okay.
And now the people that had sold me that idea are now okay with it.
You know?
And that brings us into another dangerous territory right now more than ever with how much of an influx we're seeing of The proliferation of fucking Blue Anon bullshit.
So many of those people are going to get sucked in by David Icke.
Because David Icke, he's not more sane.
It's just he never changed his message.
Alex Jones changed his message.
Trump, what was it?
Trump can lick ISIS's dirty asshole or something like that.
He never had principles.
Ike never changed his story because he was like, okay, this is bad, this is bad, this is bad, and so many of these blue non people, I'm so scared that they're going to get sucked in by Ike because they're going to come for the fucking sense that he's making, but you stay long enough and suddenly AIDS isn't real.
That's the thing about these kinds of movements and just following the news.
You follow the news and you're going to have bad actors in your newsfeed trying to lure you into bullshit.
It's how all these neo-Nazis and anti-Semites were all, Yo, free Palestine!
Israel's gone too far!
you should listen to me and then you get on their timeline and it's just like It really makes you think, doesn't it?
And all that kind of stuff.
You start with free Palestine, and then you just get to the Holocaust was a lie.
And it's like, okay, great.
Wonderful.
Just, you've got to be very careful about...
It's very important that you make sure you maintain boundaries.
And you also have to know if the person you're engaging with is actually honest about your issue.
Because these people, like Jake Shields and Bilzerian and all these other monsters.
They don't care about Muslims.
They hate them just as much as they hate Jews.
They're just using free Palestine as an excuse.
It's just a way to tap a market that currently is untouched for them.
I mean, it was like 2020 election denialism.
Kira Toa the Great, or however you say that guy's name, he pretended he wasn't a QAnon promoter for a long time and was trying to make reasonable, sensible, like, hmm, there's some anomalies here.
Isn't this worth looking into?
And people started stroking their chins and being like, hey, this guy, I like the cut of his jib.
It's like, no, he's pilled.
He's a nut.
He's cleaning himself up to present good, just so he can lie to you and then lure you into the real bullshit.
It's what Alex Jones does when he goes on Rogan's show.
He knows not to say the bad shit on Rogan's show.
He brings you to his show, and then he talks about the 50-foot-tall praying mantis that you see when you're tripping balls and shit, and how it'll destroy your soul if you're not truly wearing the armor of God.
One person that I'm personally noticing that is like, he's hitting against Trump, so some people are like, oh, he's good now.
Is that Richard Hanania?
Oh, I thought you were doing someone else there.
He was a complete eugenicist.
He's a total anti-black.
He's written for V-Dare and literal neo-Nazi websites person.
But now he's hitting Trump.
Not because he's honest in the way that like Jake Shields and these types are honest when they talk about issues related to Palestine.
Like that he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, That's where his anger comes from.
That's where his frustrations come from.
In the way that neo-Nazis say they don't like Trump, not because they're like, oh, are they on our side?
It's like, no, they actually don't like him for even worse reasons that you can't even imagine.
Similar with, like, the Elon thing, it's like people are like, oh, is he good now because he's, like, hitting Trump about the bill?
And it's like, no, no, he doesn't want – he's not hitting Trump for good reasons about the bill.
It's because he wants things even worse for us and better for him.
Yeah, he doesn't like the bill because it's not extreme enough.
Yeah.
Right.
I know I always – it's our – the American political system is so toxic that – It's no longer a case of the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Sometimes the enemy is like, whoa, that guy's a level of piece of shit that I didn't even know.
The internet does crazy things.
Oh yeah, the enemy of my enemy is still my enemy.
Fuck that guy.
I mean, that was, and that's like, that was the whole thing with Alex Jones, was that he hated George W. Bush because he wasn't conservative enough.
That was his whole argument.
And he hated Bush, and this got people to think that, oh wait, Alex is like a kind of centrist.
He's kind of just like calling balls and strikes on both sides.
Like, no.
He's actually just, he's a nut who's so far right.
He just sees Bush as being the equal of Gore, which is madness.
And then when Alex got Trump, he just immediately dropped the mask and was like, nope, hardcore conservative lunatic now.
All that libertarianism I was spouting for 20 years, get fucked.
Don't care about any of it.
Can I just say that, you know, I texted all of you guys before we recorded, like, wow.
The George Floyd episodes that we just did feel so relevant because the conspiracies that kind of started to bubble up under the Floyd uprising is just back.
It's so back.
I'm literally seeing photos of the brick pallets that I remember seeing back then.
Antifa bricks, that's what I call them.
Yummy.
Antifa bricks, we love it.
You know, we covered 9-11 recently.
I was going to say, though, I noticed a friend of the show, Wendy Rogers, was promoting the Antifa Bricks thing.
Oh, my God.
I almost lost my mind.
I knew she would.
I'm surprised she hasn't gone harder on some of the conspiracies.
But, yes, sitting state senator did push the Antifa Bricks conspiracy, which I personally love.
But, you know, we were covering 9-11 recently, which, like, brought us back to the Bush era and the vibes after that.
And, you know, fuck Bush people.
We're just so on the fucking money.
You guys have been so vindicated.
you know it's not like I was never like pro-bush but I was also like nine years old so what am I gonna think but it's just like you know with all this talk of ice and like all the violence of ice and I think a lot of people don't know that, that it's such a new baby agency that was created pretty recently, actually.
So I just feel like we're in such like, I don't know, time is a flat circle, as they say.
I just love it because I'm sitting there because I was obviously older during this time period, but Bush announced the Department of Homeland Security.
I'm like, okay, for one, What a freaking George Orwell name for it.
Homeland Security.
I mean, might as well call it Keeping Babies Safe Department.
But then also, I'm like, I thought conservatives were supposed to be against large government, and here he is creating a whole new federal department.
But I was against it for other reasons, too, such as, you know, the Patriot Act.
But yeah, it was just, I saw that as a total clusterfuck from word go.
And that right there...
No, it's you.
It's all you.
I was just going to say, and right there, look at Alex Jones' reaction to stuff like the Patriot Act.
DHS and all that after 9-11.
Now he's fine with all of it.
He's fine with all of it.
He railed on the day of 9-11.
He was on his show live saying they're going to use this to clamp down on our freedoms and our liberties and our ability to move about freely and, you know, all this shit.
Now it's okay.

Oh, it's absolutely okay.
Now that the good guys are doing it, that's all that matters.
Okay.
Yeah, I guess at the time they thought it was coming for them, but now they visibly seem like, oh, it's just my enemy?
Well, I don't care.
Yeah, I talk about it all the time on Twitter, original position fallacy.
If there's something out there that will harm some people and benefit other people, most people will go for it because they assume they'll be on the benefit side, not on the harm side.
Right.
Yeah, people, and that's the thing, is that there's no, the right wing has no actual principles.
They believe whatever benefits them this day.
Yeah.
Again, Scalia dies nine months before an election.
It's the American people's decision on who should be to appoint the next justice.
Ginsburg dies 20 days before an election.
We've got to get a new justice in there.
Trump has the mandate of heaven to appoint the new justice.
Go fuck yourselves, everybody.
And McConnell told everybody he was going to do that a couple years beforehand.
Someone asked him about it.
What if Ruth Bader Ginsburg dies right before the election?
And he kind of smiles himself and says, oh, yeah, we'll appoint a new justice in that case.
Right.
Yeah, he doesn't care if anybody...
Nope, they don't care.
We are in a post-shame society.
Shame is just a detriment that hurts you.
And the sooner you live without shame, the faster you will achieve success and promote yourself in our new world.
Whatever principles you had yesterday, throw them in the trash and get new principles today because it's a new situation.
You scared of government overreach?
Rail against tyranny.
Your guys tackle a sitting U.S. senator for asking someone from the cabinet a question?
Fuck yeah, tackle more senators.
We need to be doing this.
Why are you questioning the government?
Nothing to hide, nothing to fear.
Don't know what you're talking about.
And look, I don't like Elon Musk.
I despise him.
He is a despicable piece of human shit.
Tell us what you really feel.
But Steve Bannon's sitting there saying that he should be deported and then all the shitlibs are picking up on this.
Guess what?
If you support Musk being tackled and dragged off by ICE, then you have to support everyday humans like you or me or anyone else being dragged off.
Even if it's your enemy, you have to defend them.
In order to be a principled and rational human being.
I want Musk to be arrested.
I don't want him to be tortured.
I want him to be arrested for real crimes that everybody knows he's done.
I don't want him to be tortured.
I'm not even fucking kidding.
But I don't want him to be sent to some Venezuelan prison.
He deserves it.
But if I'm going to support that, then I have to support.
I'm not going to do that.
I'm not.
I've seen some people trying to make kind of like, trying to be like, well, you know, he's by his own admission, you know, was here illegally.
So for that reason, he should be deported.
I just think a lot of people should start to question kind of like, why?
Why do we have ICE to begin with?
Why was this formed in the first place?
Why have we just kind of normalized this in our day-to-day life?
Yeah, I think a lot of people were angry back in the day when the Homeland Security Act was enacted and when things like the Patriot Act were formed.
Right.
Because it's like...
We're talking about the Patriot Act.
People were mad because of mass surveillance.
And it's like, just this week, in a tiny outskirt neighborhood in Phoenix, for one raid, they were flying a fucking military helicopter in the air with guys hanging out with rifles.
It's like, this is completely unnecessary.
And it's like a surveillance.
Like, vehicle also, it's just, like, this is a complete violation of our privacy, and I think more people should, who were kind of pissed back in the day, should kind of, like, remember that.
Like, ICE, I don't think, should exist personally.
Also, I just have to talk about it because, you know, we're a conspiracy podcast, and this is just a common conspiracy.
That I see about what, like, a lot of the, like, militarized agents and feds that have been kind of roaming the streets is that they're pardoned January Sixers.
Yeah, I've seen a lot of that, too.
I've seen, like, I think he's a Midas touch guy, but, like, share this meme that was essentially said, like, oh, Christy Noem.
And the Republican, like, Congress, like, secretly voted to allow January Sixers to, like, work as ICE, which is just completely fake.
Like, that's not even how things work.
And also there was, like, a pretty sizable, like, conspiracy that, like, kind of was, like, everybody was talking about, like, nationally, not just localized Arizona.
That, like, this pretty high-profile raid that happened was actually, like, a militia guy here in Arizona, and it, like, was not him.
Oh, yeah, it was that video everyone was sharing of the ICE agent smashing in somebody's window and dragging him out of their car.
I think, is that the one you're talking about?
Yeah, that's exactly it.
And it's like, it's just interesting to see people not realize that, like, it's kind of a rogue agency.
And that's why you're seeing...
I've been at the border and interacted with Customs and Borders agents in years when Trump isn't in office, and they're scumbags.
They're fucking assholes.
They don't have people's humanity in thought when they interact with them at the border.
I've seen some incredibly inhumane They're serial killers.
I would rather deal with Ted Bundy than one of those fucking ICE agents because you can at least reason with a serial killer.
You can't reason with a fucking Terminator cyborg.
I would recommend that people kind of look into Jen Budd who is a whistleblower.
She was a former Border Patrol agent and now does talk about a lot of the behavior.
That is just regular in the institution in itself.
It exists to keep people out of the country.
A lot of the guys are pretty violent.
They get away with a lot of shit in general.
This idea that they're all January 6th people is funny because I don't think people realize that there's way more guys out there than there was in January 6th.
Not that many people got arrested in January 6th.
Take the whole, like, country, like, be part of every raid in the country.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Go ahead.
No, I'm just saying, and just, like, I don't think people realize how heavily tracked the January 6th guys are.
Like, there's, like, databases that are just public that basically constantly track what the January 6th guys are doing.
I think they imagine it's like that scene in Demolition Man when Wesley Snipes tells the guy who basically runs, Everything.
That he needs some people to help him out, so they thaw out a whole bunch more criminals to basically deputize him.
I think they're imagining that's what's going on.
Yeah, I'm like, there's always, always, always been far-right actors that, like, the policing in general is generally leans right.
Like, most police votes voted for Trump.
Like, overwhelmingly.
And, like, I don't know.
I think people are a bit, like, I understand why people, like, do kind of have this misconception.
Like, this isn't how police act.
It is in a lot of cases, especially in, like, black and brown neighborhoods.
And, like, but I do think people are shocked when they see, like, these guys that are fucking tacticaled out.
they're covering their face.
These are not people that are co- Yeah, they're covering their names.
They're refusing to answer questions.
They're acting incredibly violent.
Yeah, I've seen videos of them hiding their identification when questioned.
And, like, I totally understand why people are getting this, like, these are clearly not cops.
I have a perception in my head what cops are supposed to be and they're the good guys.
And it's like these people are.
Stephanie, I'm sorry.
I interrupted you so much.
No, that's okay.
I kept trying to butt in.
I'm sorry.
I, and I just, and I think people need to understand.
The casualties of 9-11 were 2,977 people dead.
The daily quota for ICE is 3,000.
And that doesn't mean that they're trying to kill a whole 9-11 every day.
But their goal is to disappear an entire 9-11 every fucking day.
And I want people to think about that.
Think about a 9-11 every day.
And the trauma, there may not be the destruction or the public display, but the trauma, the horror, the terror, the pain, the suffering.
Yeah, 3,000 people, it is a 9-11 every day.
That's your goal.
And these people, I'm not saying they're not human in a sense to dehumanize them, but I'm saying They are psychopaths.
These are psychopaths in order to do what they are doing.
In order for Ted Bundy and Gary Ridgway to do what they did and Jeffrey Dahmer.
Their brains are not like ours.
These are psychopaths.
And you have to understand, these are all psychopaths.
I had something to say, but I, oh, you know, I think you're right about, like, the amount of, like, trauma this has caused sitting in the community, like, thousands of people, basically a day is their quota, and they've been increasing it, like, over and over, just like, okay, we want more people, we want more people.
And, like, Well, you know, we're a conspiracy podcast.
We talked about, like, oh, the conspiracy is about, like, this immigrant group is eating cats and dogs.
You know, this immigrant is Trendy Agua.
And it's like, these are all bullshit.
This is all bullshit conspiracies.
And, like, a lot of the times when you hear politicians, especially, like, Trump, MAGA types, talk about, like, oh, we're going to get rid of the criminals.
We're going to get rid of the gang members.
It's horse shit.
They're talking about, they are talking about hardworking families.
They are just talking, like, they're, like, what's happening to Kilmar Abrego Garcia is, is horseshit.
Like, he's not a gang member.
Everything that they're, like, talking, saying about him is bullshit.
I don't know if this has been independently verified or anything, but I've been hearing stuff that some of the stuff that, what's her name, the press secretary or Pam Bondi or whoever it was, when she had the press conference about, I can't keep those blondes apart in my head, but anyway.
They were listing off Garcia's crimes that he supposedly committed, and I think it was something like bringing in thousands of illegal immigrants, and they said that's not even in the indictment.
That's something that she just threw out there just for red meat for the MAGA.
They're accusing him of trafficking, and it's like the incident that they're referring to is just an incident with him with a lot of other brown guys in the car with him.
He didn't get in legal trouble.
He didn't get even a ticket.
He got pulled over.
There was other Hispanic people in the car with him.
And that's what the Trump administration is citing as proof that he was trafficking humans.
That's just a lie.
That's just bullshit.
Driving all around, basically.
I would feel better if they would just come out and just say, hey, we're doing this because we're racist hate mongers.
I would feel better if they would just come out and just say that.
Charlie Kirk has.
Has anyone noticed that Charlie Kirk has been fully just like, I'm dropping it.
I'm dropping the mask that I pretend to have that I'm not a full white identitarian.
and I'm going to start sharing Steve Saylor and other V-Dare and American Renaissance guys.
And I'm also going to say...
Has anyone noticed this?
I'm losing my mind.
And whose podcast was Charlie Kirk on recently?
Bringing it back around?
Did you see that like there were multiple right wingers that were saying the exact same thing?
Like it's like they got the memo and Charlie Kirk was one of them and it was like.
They tweeted the exact same thing.
That seems conspiratorial.
I just don't understand what that was about.
It's just like, why did they all tweet the exact same thing?
I mean, jokingly, but I call it the hive mind.
Oh, yeah, it's truly amazing.
These people who piss and moan about the quote-unquote 2 a.m. talking points, they seem to be really good at getting their 2 a.m. talking points.
You can fucking do it.
You can do a search for a phrase on X and fucking hit so many people saying the exact same thing.
It's not even funny.
But since Steph mentioned it, were we going to talk about Gavin Newsom?
Oh, yeah, let's keep Gavin Newsom around a little bit.
All right.
The thing is that Gavin Newsom is, to me, your traditional slimy politician in the sense that he is just going wherever he thinks he can find the votes.
And he is very obviously going to run for president in 2028.
I will not vote for him in the primaries.
Were he to win the Democratic nomination, however, he will become a being of pure light and energy who has never done anything wrong.
And anyone who says anything bad about Governor Newsom, our sacred and undeniable nominee, will be bad and evil in my heart.
But until that moment, until that moment happens, I will oppose this man with all the fiber of my being.
And the main reason for that is that, again, he just...
goes where he thinks the wind blows, where he's got Steve Bannon and Charlie Kirk and all these other sacks of shit on his podcast where he's doing this whole, I can work across the aisle, I can hang out with MAGA and come to Common Ground and reach detente with these people.
And now...
Well, you got another thing coming.
And it's like, buddy, buddy, we saw you yucking up with Steve Bannon.
And Twitter is eating it up.
Twitter just has a hard-on for Gavin Newsom right now.
He is the golden child at this moment of the 24-hour news cycle.
Yeah, and I mean, that's the way it's going to be.
And as far as I'm concerned, I'm like, hey, good on you, Gavin.
Throw those punches.
Get people behind you.
Because this is the one thing that drives me nuts about people is you always hear people saying, we need a Democrat that will fight, that will go after Trump.
And then when a Democrat does that, nine times out of ten, people are like, no, not you.
And it's like, no, what do you want?
He's doing what you want.
Yeah, but he's not the guy I want doing it.
I want my guy to be doing it.
So it's like, well, tell your guy to start doing it.
Gavin has to step up right now because what's happening in California is a power move.
You want to be president in a few years?
make sure that we still have that option in a few years first.
It's like I said about back in I'm like, okay, yeah.
They're on our side right now, and that's cool, but don't forget who they are.
Yeah.
I would say, don't forget one of the guys who, I can't remember his name right now, but one of the guys who created the Lincoln Project also brought us Sarah Palin.
So just keep that in the back of your head.
Schmidt.
That was it.
Steve Schmidt.
He's the one who told McCain to go with Sarah Palin for Running Mate.
Yeah, because McCain wanted Lieberman, which would have...
Oh, man.
Yeah.
And the crowd goes mild.
Literally.
What's really funny is I'm old enough to remember when Lieberman was Al Gore's running mate.
Right.
Yeah.
That was when he was still a Democrat before he switched to independents.
And it's so nice to see that Sarah Palin's Face has finally caught up with her inside.
Just this sagging heap of flesh piled on a skull and just melting downward like some kind of fucking blacklight poster.
She probably couldn't afford the plastic surgery anymore or the payments to whatever demon was keeping her face like that.
Yeah, they all get the Trump look, the Trump lady look.
Yeah, they call that the Mar-a-Lago look.
It is a look.
It's definitely a look.
Yeah.
And when we were coming back from Arizona earlier this year, I think it was, the hotel we stopped at, there was like some TP USA conference that was there.
And, like, we were like, oh, God.
And we were just, like, laughing at the people.
But every woman who you could tell was there with her MAGA boyfriend, it's like just dressed to the nines, heavy makeup.
It's like stripper life.
Yeah, with the cheek fillers and the lips.
I mean, these are women who...
It's like, that's how you want to live your life?
I wear nothing but pajamas most of the time.
Steph was caught in AmericaFest, which is the big mega festival that comes to Phoenix once a year.
And yeah, they do have a dress code for those people.
The guys have to kind of look like Tucker Carlson.
That's their main dress code.
And the ladies have a bit more of an option.
But yeah, they kind of have them look like that.
But in that case, thank God Tucker Carlson stopped wearing bow ties because I think if there was an entire convention hall full of guys wearing bow ties, I would have to firebomb it politically.
The lady that actually is the main female Turning Point USA influencer and she does run the Women's Conference.
Which is very, like, it's only women generally allowed.
It is, like, teaching you how to be trad as fuck.
You know, don't have seed oil.
Makeup tutorials to hide your bruises from your abusive husband.
But it's like, drink raw milk.
Do this.
Do that.
You know, don't ingest the red dye.
Don't ingest the this and the that.
But like...
She says Botox is okay.
Well, you gotta read the room.
Yeah.
Well, it's just like how vaccines are bad for kids, but, you know, shoving bleach in their assholes is okay.
Oh, since you brought up vaccines, you reminded me.
Everybody saw the news about RFK Jr. appointing Robert Malone to the vaccine board.
Remind me who he is, please.
He's the guy who claims he invented mRNA vaccines and used that authority to claim that the COVID vaccine is bullshit that doesn't work.
Oh, well, I'm sure he's a capable and rational human being who has no ulterior motives.
Yeah, and as you can imagine, the Maha movement on Twitter just absolutely loves this guy.
So I'm sure they were high-fiving the hell out of each other when he got appointed.
You know...
And that's interesting because Wakefield...
So this is like the second...
Yeah.
Since we're talking Maha, which I feel like deserves a three-parter at some point.
There's so much there.
Maybe we could save it for when RFK Jr. is finally driven out of the country, you know, tarred and feathered.
The first measles case has been confirmed in Arizona, so if I get it, we'll do it then.
Yay!
Hey, congrats!
I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner.
I know, same.
The person that is the new Surgeon General, Casey Means is part of this, like, Maha scene.
And she and her brother have, like, some ties here.
Her brother lives here and, like, with his wife runs this, like, milkshake stand in Scottsdale.
It's like a traveling truck, you know, like a food truck.
But it's milkshakes only, but it's raw milk milkshakes.
I wish everybody could see the faces of everybody right now.
Oh, God.
I'm just going to start driving around in a truck giving people, like, eggs to drink.
I mean, I thought milkshakes in Arizona sounded like a bad idea from the beginning, just from the climate.
My milkshake brings all the disease to the yard.
Good one.
There's some too that's just like it's vanilla with chocolate in it and it's just like, come on, man.
I don't want...
I don't want...
Chocolate raw.
I still laugh at the one guy who said that he discovered that raw milk is safe to drink as long as you boil it first.
Yep.
So I'm like, yeah, raw milk's great if you pasteurize it.
Well, it's like saying, you know, raw roadkill is great to eat as long as you stick it in autoclave.
I honestly do consume a lot of Maha content, and I saw a podcast clip where one of the main Maha ladies was influencer types.
Was talking with, um, it was actually a fucking farmer here in Arizona.
God damn it.
Um, but they were talking about raw milk and they were, um, he, he's like such a purist for raw milk.
He doesn't even put it in his coffee because he was like, oh, that's like partial pasturation.
So you gotta put the coffee to the side and put the milk to the raw milk to the side and you drink it separately.
Wait, don't some of these people say that they don't believe in germ theory?
Yeah.
I guess this guy still believes in Staphylococcus, at least.
I love...
I actually had a germ theory truther come at me, and I was just...
I just said, you know...
Go lick a toilet seat in a gas station bathroom and come back and tell me if you believe in germs.
It's just, I mean, that's the thing, is that people like that, people that push these kinds of bullshit, they know that If they get really good at their shtick and they know their patter, they can try to sow doubt into you if you actually engage with them.
And that's their goal.
there are some trolls that just don't know this shit and they'll just throw punches at you and then when you come back at them, they'll just shut up or they'll just start going yo mama!
But then when you get into the real freaks who actually live and breathe whatever their conspiracy theory is...
You don't know germ theory.
You never studied it.
You don't know the truth.
And it's like, no.
The truth is, is that you have a bunch of talking points that you have down cold and you're using those talking points and you're hoping they impress me because this is how everybody works.
This is how...
Next thing you know, that person's hitting you with, the Red Cross said this, and there was a pool at Auschwitz, and blah, blah, blah.
And they're hoping to hit you with stuff you've never heard before.
Now you start doubting.
It's like, no, just walk away.
Just walk away from that person.
Fuck them and their talking points.
Fuck them and their narrative.
Because it's all bullshit.
It's all been debunked.
And they know it's been debunked.
They've fought people before who've debunked them.
And they don't care.
Like I was some loon, Someone else was fighting this guy, and somehow they tagged me into the conversation.
And I was like, great, wonderful.
I'm so fucking happy to be here.
And this guy was like saying that the tippy-top Q-proof was like, there's just no way you can debunk the tippy-top Q-proof.
It establishes completely that Q and Trump are working in and in to defeat the deep state.
And I just debunked it immediately because it's bullshit.
And I showed him the video of Trump saying tippy-top before he said tippy-top on Easter.
And the guy just ignored it.
Just completely ignored it.
And he'll be back in three months and he'll do the whole same shtick over and over again.
The tippy-top cue proof is undebunkable.
It's invincible.
And when people post the video that debunks it, he'll just ignore it because he knows what he's doing.
he's here to lie to you and he is not going to let He's here to say what he's here to say, and fuck you.
It's just that simple.
Well, this week's been a normal week.
Is anything else on anyone's radar?
Well, there was one thing I wanted to mention.
I was talking about it a little bit before we started.
So I've been getting in arguments with people on Twitter lately because they just...
So, like, somebody was posting this picture that I've seen so many times, it's been debunked left, right, and center, of Trump and Epstein, and Epstein doesn't have a shirt on, and Trump has his hands on the thigh of this young girl.
And I'm describing this picture in case anyone listening to this has seen this picture before.
But they posted the picture, but they made it as a meme, and they had the text really big, so it was blocking out some of the most obvious features.
But I'm like, okay, look, this picture is AI, and all these guys are like, oh, you're defending Trump.
I'm like, no, I'm not defending Trump.
I'm saying this is a fake picture.
And they're like, well, what makes you think it's fake?
I go, well, for one, Epstein has no legs.
Well, he's just behind the couch.
Okay, Trump only has one leg.
It looks like two, like, how can you tell him, like, okay, let me show you a picture without the text blocking his missing leg.
And also, he's missing half a finger, and I'm pointing out all just, all the stuff that the meme carefully tries to hide, showing the picture's fake.
And then other people are coming and saying, no, no, this guy is on our side.
He's just, you know, they're like, well, then how come he's defending Trump?
I'm like, I'm not.
It's possible to not like the guy and say, this photo is fake because we should not be, you know, we shouldn't be doing this.
This is MAGA tactics where, you know, you don't care if truth is truth as long as it supports your personal agenda.
It's, you know, I'm going to call out a lie when I see it, no matter who it hurts.
And then another thing, I showed it to you guys.
Somebody posted, they said, this is a real Craigslist ad asking for, you know, paying $1,000 to people to show up at Trump's military parade over the weekend.
And I'm like, yeah, okay.
Trump would never pay that much.
He would never approve that much.
And I said, yeah, this seems kind of sus to me.
And people are like, one person's like, look, it's really on Craigslist.
I'm like, yeah, all that proves is that it's really on Craigslist.
I'm like, I could put a post on Craigslist right now saying, give me $1,000 and I will get you on the mothership that's going to Alpha Centauri.
That doesn't mean there's a mothership going to Alpha Centauri.
Monopoly money?
Well, that was the first thing that hit me off because I scrolled down to the bottom of the message and it said that if you attend the parade, they will pay you $1,000 in cryptocurrency.
I'm like, okay, that sounds phony as hell, first off, because who's going to accept that?
And then I'm also looking through other stuff and it's like, we will give you a meal of fast food and soda.
And I'm like, okay.
It sounds like they're trying way too hard to make this sound like something Trump would do because everybody knows Trump, when you come to the White House, Trump gets you McDonald's.
And who's going to give you food at a parade?
Yeah.
And they will supply, and they wrote it all in caps, they will supply red hats.
I'm like, okay, and this will be premier access so that you can be seen from the VIP booth, which is obviously supposed to mean this is where Trump's going to be sitting.
And I'm like, these guys are trying way too hard to make this sound like a paid thing.
So I'm like, this does not pass the smell test.
And all these people are like, oh, whatever, MAGA.
I saw Amanda Moore even talking about this because it was going around quite a lot.
Which is funny that this still proliferates on the internet because the Craigslist paid protester thing I feel like is one of the oldest online baits in the book.
And it goes back to the crisis actor stuff too.
I've seen it for literally every political rally that ever comes to Arizona.
When Kamala was here, I saw them, and they very obviously are written by people who are just like, what do I think a lib would ask for?
What do I think a MAGA would ask for?
because it's just like i remember the kamala ones was like oh we need antifa protesters out with umbrellas it's like something that would never ever get a public call for action by the kamala campaign for antifa with umbrellas um it's just it's very funny old bait that i i feel like is like kind of low-tier bait it's funny that it still is popular i i feel like everyone's just
minds but it's also kind of understanding because like I'll be honest with you I haven't I'm kind of afraid to fucking go anywhere.
Number one, I don't like being around a lot of people in public.
It makes me uncomfortable, but I haven't felt this level of existential dread since after 9-11.
Like, literally.
And it is so...
And I have that same feeling I did after 9-11.
To me, the worst part of 9-11 was afterwards.
It wasn't during.
It was the rubble, the cleanup, just all that mess and all the shit going on in the Senate and Congress and all the executive order.
All that shit.
That to me was...
the worst part and it's like just the uncertainty and Oh, God.
Just euthanize this country.
I feel you, Stephanie.
Politically.
Yeah.
We are shit.
Keep an eye out for ice in your neighborhood.
call the migrant hotline area.
Keep clear of that 50501.
If you're going to a protest and you encounter people from that group, stay the fuck away from them.
They are fucking boot lickers.
Yeah.
I think it's good to have a diversity of tactics right now.
I know a lot of people aren't into like the, just like kind of stand around and kind of go home and protested an empty building thing.
It's like, I think it's fine if those people mobilize and do that, Yeah, like are they doing that on purpose so that people purposely get hurt?
I think it's just that it's like people who kind of don't have much experience with organizing protests where it has the possibility of getting a little bit hot.
And, you know, I just saw them passing around a flyer that said, like, oh, if, like, police start rioting or if people start getting a little bit, like, spicy in a way that you don't like, sit down.
And it's like, I don't think that's a good idea to sit down in a mass protest where police are shooting things.
Yeah, it sounds like it's based on, you know, like, the hippies where, you know, if a cop starts drinking wages, go limp.
It sounds like it's based on that idea.
But the reality of it is, that's like telling someone, if you get hurt in a mosh pit, just sit down and you'll be fine.
It's just not a good environment to sit down.
I wouldn't recommend it.
Yeah.
Do not sit down in an environment that could become a riot at any second.
You want to talk about a common conspiracy in American culture is that people think that those non-lethal weapons, non-lethal bullets are non-lethal.
Those things will kill you, especially if they hit your head.
And police are often not very safe with where they aim them.
And what about that?
And they tend to shoot them at like close...
You're fine.
Go on.
The woman at Standing Rock, what happened to her fucking arm, she lost like half of her fucking arm.
And they were using the less than lethal rounds on her.
Yeah, there's a pretty...
Like, there's quite a few people who definitely lost some eyes during the George Floyd uprising.
And, like, one of those people I know, I don't personally know, but I just know that she's been, like, basically got dementia from getting hit by one of the non-lethals that took her eye out.
And, like, she is kind of, like, in hospice dying, like, an early death because it's not...
Yeah, I mean, it's still a bullet.
It's just like wrapped in this fat...
CNN actually picked some of those up and was like, this is what the protesters are using at the cops.
And it's like, oh my god.
Can we not get the live coverage in the age of conspiracy?
Because people are going to take that.
And fucking ABC, they had an article with a guy's picture, like someone wanted for throwing rocks in LA.
Oh, nice to know you're on the wrong side of history, ABC.
You don't publish that.
God.
I mean, as I understand it, those quote-unquote non-legal rounds are supposed to be fired from a distance.
They're, as you find out, very unsafe, like at point-blank range.
But another thing is, like, People get a wrong idea of how bullets work from television.
You'll see people shooting at the kneecaps in order to inflict non-lethal damage.
Getting shot anywhere on your body can kill you depending on how it hits you.
And if it nicks the right artery or vein, you know, if you get hit in the femoral or...
You can get shot in the shoulder and bleed out while waiting for first aid to arrive.
I saw some people just at the LA protests that were shot in the chest, including a photojournalist.
It was actually a more right-leaning news outlet from Australia out there.
A woman got just really popped at and hit.
Like, the people that are getting shot in the chest, like, that hits you right there?
Like, you could go into cardiac arrest.
That shit's dangerous.
Yeah.
You could, yeah, that could cause cardiac fucking arrest.
And I saw that video of the, of the, literally, it looks like the woman's talking and the camera pans over and then the cop turns around, points the gun, and shoots her.
Like, it wasn't like, like, it didn't look accidental.
It looked like he was, like, gunning for her specifically.
Yeah, that was such a weird situation.
And, like, that's one of the situations that's, like, it's way too close for even a non-lethal.
Like, it was, like, right next to her.
And the way that it's supposed to work is essentially, like, you're not supposed to aim it directly at people.
You're supposed to aim it at the floor so it bounces and then kind of, like, bounces up at people.
Yeah, because then it loses a lot of its energy.
But the problem is, is you're giving a bunch of bullies a big, huge playground and telling them that...
That's what this all is.
I know, it's one of those things like, I don't want to be one of those all cops are bastards guys, but they keep making it so hard for me to, you know, give them the benefit of the doubt.
Yeah, yeah.
And everyone should listen to the Foreskins.
The Foreskins, all cops are bastards song.
I've been blasting Fuck the Border by Propagandhi quite a lot this week.
It's just been in my head.
You know, we were supposed to do cryptids, everybody.
I'm just getting a report now that Bigfoot has been detained by ICE.
Damn it, I was worried.
I knew if we kept holding off the cryptids episode that they'd find Bigfoot and we'd lose our scoop.
They found him and they detained him.
Yeah.
What were you going to say, Mike?
No, I was just going to say that in the world, the police are the ultimate NPCs.
And when the Democrats are in power, Alex Jones and the right-wingers are like, oh, these fucking cops, they're terrible.
And now...
Like, back to the blue.
What are you doing?
Like, just obey and nothing will happen to you.
And it's like, no, either cops are bad or they're good.
And it doesn't matter who the president is.
The president doesn't impact a local cop.
I mean, it's like, I just see these people who are like...
And it's just, well, good luck.
I saw somebody, I don't know if it was Hassan or whoever, but they were like, Biden sent 3,500 police in to crush Columbia's protests and blah, blah, blah.
So what Trump is doing, it's like, Biden doesn't run the local police that went to Columbia.
No, Trump is doing this.
He sent the National Guard.
He sent Marines.
Stop trying to both sides this.
I understand that you have audience capture now and owning libs progressively is what you do to pay the rent.
Fuck off.
Just fuck off of this shit.
There's no both sides in this.
One side is a budding authoritarian dictatorship, and the other side is not.
And it's just that simple.
I mean, this is why, again, fuck Gavin Newsom, and you can play that clip back at me in perpetuity, but if somehow, someway, that guy wins the Democratic nomination, he's better than any Republican Biden.
power of a thousand.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'll take him over Mike Pence, I'll take him over J.D. Vance, I'll take him over Donald Trump Jr. or whoever the hell is running in 28. Whoever they...
You forgot the asterisk if there is another election.
Well, hey, but I mean, then I will support El Jefe Newsom leading the glorious people's revolts against the administration of the imperial regime.
That's great.
Yeah, we're getting in a shadow run and Newsom's going to create the California Free State.
Oh, Daniel Howling Coyote, 2028.
I have a friend who will be so happy I got another Daniel Howling Coyote reference into this podcast.
I actually almost one time bought a Vote Gunkels On t-shirt.
I do think, though, even if you're not like totally ACAB, I think people should probably start to kind of I've been doing that since 2003.
it's honestly obscene to see like actual tanks in just like random neighborhoods here in Phoenix it's like there's not that This doesn't even fit in the fucking little streets.
There's no...
You know, you just made me think of something.
Remember how all the right-wingers lost their...
Yep.
But now they're okay with this.
Now's good.
Now that we're doing Ruby Helm, it's so much better.
And also, hey, remember Ruby Ridge.
I was just thinking Ruby Ridge.
Hey, this is so fucked up that this government is doing this.
People on the left and the right came together after Ruby Ridge and said, this is fucked up.
Hey, how quickly everyone's forgotten.
Ruby Ridge, Waco, Elias Gonzalez, that was all under fucking Janet Reno.
Oh, I remember having a fucking advanced history teacher telling me that, like, Waco was bullshit.
And, like, there's, like, video of the cop on the roof, and they, like, jerk when they get hit.
And she's like, oh, yeah, they won't show you in America, but in Europe, you watch the video, the guy just gets them and walks away.
And I was like, oh.
And now I'm thinking to myself, Jesus, my AP history teacher was pill?
That's intense.
Oh yeah, that was the Linda Thompson documentary, I think.
She's the Clinton body count lady.
And then she did the, she did a documentary about Waco that was all like conspiratorial.
I think it is interesting with the Waco stuff because like, you know, I had that show on Netflix and I do think a lot of even normies.
But then the right-wingers on the flip side do not consider this fed overreach.
They don't have the same smoke that they do for Waco because I don't think their problem lies in the fact that it was fed overreach in a lot of cases.
it was more of the white identity reasons in some cases it's just like there's no reason for you not to Sigh.
And I, you know, and because I had to hear this come from my own father's mouth, who, by the way, I do not talk to anymore because I don't need that in my life.
That, well, you know, I didn't vote for this.
No, that's bullshit.
I'm sorry.
Yes, you fucking did.
And if you're like my dad and all you do is listen to Glenn Beck and watch Fox News, yeah, you're not informed as to what is really going on in the world.
But guess what?
That's not a fucking excuse either.
Because 10, 20 years ago, every single fucking conservative would say, oh, well, it's not my fault that you don't know what's going on when you vote.
No.
I don't give a shit if you're that single-issue voter like that one lady who got fired from her federal government job because she wanted IVF and she ended up losing her job and now she's not going to get the IVF.
I don't give a shit.
Lady, you voted for this too.
You all voted for this.
All the information has been out there that Trump was going to do this.
All the rhetoric was already in place.
If you voted for this, you don't get to say, well, I didn't vote for this.
Fuck you.
Anyone claiming that they didn't vote for this with the mass deportations is just like, what, were you not paying attention?
The fucking rallies had signs for every audience member of the mass deportations now.
I'm so glad I'm not talking to my dad because I know with every day that goes by, he's becoming more and more of a fucking monster.
And guess what?
I'm an orphan.
I don't have any parents.
The good one's dead.
And the living one is all shriveled up and screaming about killing everyone in Gaza and two genders.
Oh, QAnon's favorite boxer, Ryan Garcia, posted, I may have voted for Trump, but I can't stay silent about what's happening with ICE in LA.
These aren't just, quote-unquote, illegals or statistics.
They're people.
Hardworking immigrants, especially Mexicans, who pay taxes, raise families, build our communities, and are part of the people we love.
Ripping them away from their homes is not just policy.
It's pain.
We can have borders without losing our humanity.
Welcome to the deep state, Ryan.
Hey, guess what, Ryan?
Fuck you, because you did vote for this.
You did vote for this.
Fuck you.
I love all those people.
I love those people who are like, I didn't vote for this.
I'm like, yes, you did.
Everybody told you, Trump told you, this is what he was going to do.
And when I told my dad that I can't get a job now because of his president and the shit that they're doing with the student loans and the garnishment and all that, he goes, well, I don't vote for my daughter.
I vote for my country.
Dude, if your supposed country is more important than your own fucking daughter, guess what?
Never mind.
I won't say a word.
Politically.
Politically.
It's a video game in Minecraft, in Roblox.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Feel free to put him down.
Hypothetically.
Yeah, I hope he loses his safe final Legend of Zelda.
Yeah, my papa abandoned me when I was three years old and I recently found out he was dead, so I don't even have to use the politically.
I'm glad he's just actually dead.
I'm sort of wondering if I'm the only person on this podcast who had a decent father.
How about you, Hayley?
I loved my dad a lot, but he was not a decent person.
Okay.
He was a...
He wasn't a bad person in a he-killed-anyone kind of way.
I wouldn't even say he's a bad person.
I'd just say he had a lot of problems.
We'll say that.
But he was a good guy.
He's alright.
But, you know, this Trump shit isn't just...
I, as a white person who was born in this country, I'm technically safe from ICE and all that.
So, you know, ooh, sigh of relief or whatever.
But, okay, so my family isn't going to get torn apart.
But my family is torn apart.
So, families are being torn apart because I don't want that hate in my life.
And no one, and I've told people this when they ask me how to get their loved one away from conspiracy theories.
You have to do a calculus.
If you can't pull them out, if it's hurting you, then...
This is not the man who raised me.
And Jess Lynn Cook's book, The Quiet Damage, you know, it's not just ICE.
It's Trump's rhetoric that's tearing families apart, too.
People are getting blasted from both sides.
And if you voted for Trump, then you voted for this.
And if you regret that, that's fine.
But you're going to have to come out and say that.
You're going to have to mean it.
And you're going to have to make amends, just like I had to do when I came out about being a former.
So, it's not just, you don't get to pamphill it and say, I'm reformed, give me money, and then just keep doing the same old shit.
You have to drag your soul over broken glass.
Yeah, I definitely have a lot of friends who talk about their parents or a parent that has been totally wrapped in the MAGA cult and just how hateful they've become and just how...
Yeah, it sucks.
It sucks all around.
It sucks what's happening to society.
Society.
I now have an ad on my Twitter blaming Senator Padilla for what happened and that he was totally in the wrong.
Well, see, he wasn't thrown on the floor and dragged out.
He just decided to lay down on the floor and drag himself out.
So it's all his own fault.
He was told to sit down if the police come after him.
So he did.
Just a callback.
End question.
We're not going to get into it.
What's a cryptid you're not going to talk about next week, but one that's like, hey, kind of cool?
I kind of wanted to...
I haven't.
I'm excited.
Yep, Lake Champlain.
Champ is like the American Loch Ness Monster, basically.
I like the Fresno Nightcrawler because number one, it's, it's relatively new.
And number two, It has since become adopted as like an icon of the LGBTQ community.
So like the official cryptid of, And like the, the original night crawler video, I'm talking about it right now and I know it's all bullshit, but I'm covered with goosebumps because it's so creepy.
But like the, there are all these cute little like, So I think the Fresno Nightcrawler.
I think either him or Mothman, because I do have my stuffed animal, Mothman.
That would be my favorite.
Mike, you got a cryptid?
My favorite cryptid that I'm not going to talk about next week is all of them, because probably we will be covering Israel's attacks on Iran.
And the fact that we are now at war in the Middle East and that Trump is pondering turning Baghdad into a glass parking lot or not.
But I was assured that Jared Kushner created peace.
We're at war again?
See, I didn't even know that.
No, it's coming.
It's probably happening this week, don't we?
It hasn't happened yet.
And I was assured that Jared Kushner created peace.
Oh.
The Trump-Vance ticket was the peace ticket.
The Harris-Walls ticket was the send your son to die in the fields of Ukraine.
The forever war ticket.
The forever war ticket, yeah.
Kamala the Hawk, Donald the Dove.
Yeah.
There's nothing...
It made me laugh so much during the campaign when Kamala would be like, yo, we need to fund Ukraine so they can kick Russian ass and win the war.
And then Trump would be like, we will have peace in Ukraine within a day of me being president.
probably even before that.
And the press, instead of being like, And aren't you taking Russia's side on this issue?
It was just totally like, well, Kamala wants more death and carnage, and Trump wants peace, so there's your options.
And it's like, no, that's not what Trump actually wants.
What Trump wants is for Russia to win.
Why can't you fucking say that?
Well, if we say that, Trump might not win the election.
We really want Trump to win the election because he's good content!
And fuck you people who want a real president!
We want the orange content maker!
Yeah, that's all it is.
They want their headlines, and Trump is a never-ending series of headlines.
Right.
It's why the cryptid I think somewhere, maybe in about two years, we will finally have no current events to talk about, and we'll be able to sneak in the Cryptids, and it's going to be a banger.
It's going to be a banger of an episode.
But boy, howdy.
I mean, so...
The Hellworld Blue Sky at Hellworld Podcast.
Mike, back to you.
Thanks, everybody.
The zoo crew.
We need some zoo crew sounds.
Oh, God!
We're now returning to Mike already at the studio.
Did I tell you guys I was on a radio station?
They called me and they did like a morning zoo crew interview with me about conspiracy theories.
You were on the show with Crazy Mike and the Gator.
Adventures in Hell World's deep cut, for those of you who remember that.
But yeah, that's the...
Just all that stuff.
Oh, man.
And we need the producer lady.
Haley or Steph, one of you has to play the part of the producer that is constantly being mildly sexual harassed on air but is tolerating it because she'll lose her job otherwise.
Or how about Haley and I just sexually harass each other?
Lesbianism is totally cool.
That would probably boost ratings.
After dark.
After dark.
Hey, the zoo crews are all about the latent lesbianism.
And then me or Eric have to make some smug comment about how we could switch you if we wanted to with our incredible alpha fortitude and all that kind of stuff.
Haley and I are going to have our own podcast called Two Darias After Dark.
Two Darias, yeah.
Just be like, yeah, that was hot.
Just non-stop snarking.
Yeah.
Man.
So, anyhow, thank you all for listening to the podcast.
It was great this week, wasn't it?
Total banger.
We absolutely killed it.
We're the greatest.
And also, we're humble.
We're incredibly humble.
That's the most important thing to remember about this podcast.
So, anyhow, if you enjoyed the pod, five-star review.
Do all that good stuff for us.
If you want to support the pod even more, go to patreon.com slash pokerpolitics.
Give us a small quantity of money.
We will shout you out.
We will salute you for helping us stay in the fight, as Alex Jones likes to say while he tries to sell you bullshit you don't need.
Instead, we will give you warmth and gratitude and camaraderie.
Maybe we should sell dick pills, though.
Oh, God!
Hellworld After Dark supplements.
Oh, he's so great.
Oh, man.
What we should sell is the total bullshit GLP-1 patches I've been seeing.
It's just literal patches that are fucking totally fake, but they just claim their GLP-1s on them.
And I've seen some idiots claim the placebo effect has helped them lose weight.
It's like, great.
If I can get even 25% positive reviews on these things, I'll keep selling them and robbing people.
With my fake weight loss drug.
Or we could do like the Joe Rogan thing and like sell battle ropes, but it's actually just like bungee cords.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
Whatever.
So yeah.
So please, just give us money for quality, incredibly high quality content and not scammy dick pills.
Don't make us go down that dark road.
Thanks to DJ Minimal Effort and Frosty for the bumps in the music.
Thanks to all of you for listening to this trainwreck of a podcast.
See you all next week when we will definitely talk about Cryptids 100% winky-winky.
Good speed, patriots!
