The Dot Connector: Ep170: Trump and LA: Problem-Reaction-Solution
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Iconic Live is coming to Liverpool.
Get ready for a night of information, inspiration and more.
We'll see you there.
What you do is no matter what they throw at you, you just keep walking.
You don't stop and say, oh, you can't say that about me, I'm offended.
You just keep walking.
Boom, boom, boom.
I have always wondered whether you are all 100% aligned with your views on everything going on at the moment or whether there are certain things that you disagree on.
It's a good question.
It is a great question.
And it's a valid question.
The reason why it works so well is that we're not.
I really do wish for the whole of humanity that we could all express ourselves within our jobs for who we really are.
I think what we're doing here is bigger than any one of us.
Personally, I'm quite happy to dedicate my life to it.
I'm quite happy to be here.
Hello and welcome to the Dock Connector.
Nice to be back after a little break.
What's changed, really?
Well, the extreme nature of it has moved on, but the story remains the same.
Back in the 1990s, I coined a phrase, problem, reaction, solution, in which you covertly create a problem, blame someone else for it, and at stage two, you're looking for A reaction from the public which basically says do something about the problem you have covertly created.
And that allows you at stage three to offer the solution to the problems you have created but blame someone else for.
And events like 9 /11 are monumental examples of Problem, reaction, solution.
Where you create the problem and then your solution is devastation, mayhem, death and destruction in the Middle East as a reaction to the people you blame for it.
And I've looked at events in Los Angeles and quite blatantly it's a problem, reaction, solution.
You know, I look on, as I observe the hijacked, as I would say, alternative media, which has regressed from knowing that we live in one-party states and that there is a force that works through all the parties with any chance of forming a government.
Yet now, the regression has reached the point where I'm seeing the so-called alternative media saying that the deep state is the Democrats, is the left.
It's pathetic to behold, really.
We have this global cult, this global world.
Fiercely compartmentalize themselves so only the inner core knows the real story.
That don't just work through the left.
They work through all sides to bring about a desired outcome, which is dystopia.
So I observe the...
First of all, the Trump government sends in the ICE border police, very high profile, blatantly in your face, to target migrants at their workplace that they say are illegal.
and you see Select your target as Los Angeles in California, because you know you're going to get a reaction there.
You're going to get people who are going to respond to what they think is injustice, and they're going to go out on the streets in protest.
You know that.
So that's what you do.
And you've got your ICE border police headed by this buffoon, barely one-dimensional, Tom Homan, and he's perfect for the job.
You know you're going to get a reaction to that.
And no doubt you've put some agent provocateurs in there to do some of the more extreme stuff that will get on the TV news and wind up much of the country.
And you have in plain sight the waving of Mexican flags, which is going to really wind up.
People on the so-called right, because they're going to say, it's an invasion, go back to your own country and all that.
And then, as a result of the protests, and some work by agents provocateurs, no doubt, you then say, oh, we can't have this problem.
Reaction?
Do something.
Solution.
You send in the military, 4,000 National Guard troops, 700 Marines, as I speak, and you say, we've got to put down this insurrection.
Even though, yes, there has been violence and cars set on fire, but the great majority of protesters will have done that.
Peacefully, but you don't talk about them.
And so you set a precedent, which is what you're setting out to do, whereby when there are protests against what you are doing, which people have, whatever their view, have every right to do peacefully.
Then the precedent is you're going to send the boys in.
And that's what tyrants do.
That's what emerging tyrannies do, which is what we have in the United States.
So anyway, before we get into this, here's a report on some of what's been going on in LA.
Over the past 72 hours, pockets of L.A. descending into chaos.
Protesters setting cars on fire, dumping bikes and scooters on police cruisers on the highway.
Law enforcement firing hundreds of flash bags and non-lethal projectiles and making dozens of arrests.
It got so heated in the streets that a British photographer needed emergency surgery after being struck by a non-lethal projectile.
And there was this moment.
Watch as a correspondent for Nine News Australia reporting on the protest when an officer hits her with a rubber pellet.
And tonight, an escalating war of words between California Governor Gavin Newsom and Donald Trump.
Newsom suing the president for creating the conditions for this chaos when he sidestepped California officials to deploy thousands of National Guard troops.
Are you going to deploy Marines in California?
We hope to have the support of Gavin because Gavin's the big beneficiary as we straighten out his problems.
I mean, his state is a mess.
Newsom then slammed by Trump and border czar Tom Homan for his response to the unrest.
Homan initially suggesting the governor should be arrested, something Trump seemed to support just hours ago.
I would do it if I were Tom.
I think it's great.
Gavin likes the publicity, but I think it would be a great thing.
He's done a terrible job.
Newsom responding again, calling that an unmistakable step toward authoritarianism.
I asked Homan about that.
If Gavin Newsom crosses whatever threshold it is and violates the law, do you have the authority to arrest him?
If he broke the law, like any other U.S. citizen, we'll ask the attorney general to investigate and they'll prosecute.
Tom Homan's not going to prosecute.
Spontaneous clashes began Friday as federal agents conducted multiple operations in and around Los Angeles.
On Saturday, protests mostly peaceful grew larger when agents were seen staging in nearby Paramount, California.
And by Sunday, a convoy of heavily armed and camouflaged troops arrived.
So the point is that this global cult works through both the left.
and the right to create this pincer movement to hijack the perceptions of the population and to justify the imposition of military involvement that without the problem you couldn't justify and
it's kind of Hilarious in a perverse kind of way.
To see the left, which denies conspiracies when they're in power, suddenly discovering conspiracy.
Oh, Trump's doing it because of this.
Yeah, I agree.
But when Biden and Obama and anyone else is in power, Of the left, you can't see a conspiracy.
They're the conspiracy nuts who are saying it's a conspiracy.
And then you've got the right.
Oh, dear.
Beam me up, mother.
It's mad down here.
You've got the right who talk about conspiracies, many of them quite rightly, but then when their guy gets into power, they stop seeing them.
And so the left and the right are mirrors of each other.
I'll give you an example.
We saw in that clip Gavin Newsom, the governor of California, being all prim and proper.
Oh, it's tyranny.
Yeah, I think it is.
But this is...
Governor Newsom activates National Guard to bolster states COVID-19 testing capacity.
Governor Gavin Newsom today announced that he has activated the California National Guard to support local communities with additional testing facilities.
And capacity amid the national surge in COVID-19 cases driven by the Omicron variant.
Now that, you'll remember, was the variant of the variant, variant, variant, variant, variant, variant, variant.
California has led the country's fight against COVID-19, implementing first in the nation public health measures.
That helped save tens of thousands of lives.
Bullshit, said Governor Newsom.
We continue to support communities in their response to COVID-19 by bolstering testing capacity.
And it goes on about that how he's implemented a series of measures, including a vaccine and masking measures requiring that workers in health care settings be fully vaccinated.
What have been the health consequences for them, Mr. Newsom?
So, basically, the left and the right, in terms of the controlling force working through them, are two chiefs on the same backside.
And this is the thing.
If you're going to bring in a great reset, which is what the whole idea is, a complete transformation of human society, Well, you have to destroy the status quo.
Because while the status quo is there, and is not moving, your great reset can't transform society.
And what Trump's role in this great reset, deep state agenda is, is to create, and he's brilliant at it, chaos.
Chaos and upheaval.
We're doing it with the tariffs and in so many other ways because he's destroying the status quo.
This Doge thing and Muska and what have you, this is all part of destroying the status quo and ushering in a dystopia based on control by artificial Intelligence.
Something I've been warning was the plan for decades.
And what you are doing is this.
The left has pretty much gone with the AI agenda.
Whereas the right was very sceptical of it.
So you've got to bring them in so that they come on board with what they formerly would have pushed back on.
And so you bring forward Trump that is circled by this big tech oligarchy like Peter Thiel and others in Silicon Valley, Palantir.
And you basically, through Trump, tell your base, your target audience, MAGA, what they want to hear.
But that's the cover for bringing in the Great Reset and the AI society.
And I saw this post this week.
By a MAGA stalwart, a lady called Laura Loomer, who said, time to deploy Palantir to Los Angeles to deal with illegals.
You know you'd love to see it.
You're lying if you say you wouldn't.
Well, that's a kind of a classic example of what I'm talking about.
You have the...
And now you have one of them and she will be far from alone.
That's calling for Palantir to come in to oversee surveillance.
And we also have Palantir being hired, not just by ICE, the border police, but hired by the Trump regime in general.
To bring together all the different databases so you have one massive database through which you can assimilate all the information from endless sources on every individual in your population.
And this is problem, reaction, solution extraordinaire.
What is Palanty?
It's a CIA seed-funded company that provides surveillance and data processing technology for the American government, yes, but other governments like Israel, like the UK.
Etc.
And for intelligence agencies and the military.
And two of the people that run Palantir are a guy called Peter Thiel, who is everywhere, and another guy called Alex Karp.
And they're both on the steering committee of the Bilderberg Group.
The Bilderberg Group is a globalist, deep state operation and they are being employed to bring in this Orwellian system by those like Trump and the MAGA media that claim to be against All this stuff.
It makes no sense.
And the reason it doesn't is because what you're really looking at is this cult playing out through both sides, including the side headed by Trump that claims to be against the deep state when they're a servant of it.
It just so happens that this big, beautiful bill that Trump is trying to push through includes provision to ban the states of America from regulating artificial intelligence for 10 years, which by then
And here we have a story about this technology and Palantir.
Palantir to build centralized database on Americans.
The Trump administration is quietly assembling a centralized data infrastructure.
On the American population to build it, they've enlisted Palantir, a powerful data mining company with deep ties to the intelligence world.
Co-founded by Peter Thiel, Trump's longtime ally and mega-donor, Palantir was originally seeded by the CIA to help the government make sense of large, fragmented data sets.
John Whitehead, he's a constitutional lawyer attorney and a veteran campaigner for freedom.
And the great thing about John is that he looks at a situation dispassionately and not from an ideological point of view in the sense of I'm a Trump supporter so Trump can do no wrong, which is what MAGA said.
So, the headline of his article is, Trump's Palantir-powered surveillance is turning America into a digital prison.
President Trump's plan to fuse government power with private surveillance tech to build a centralized national citizen database.
Is the final step in transforming America from a constitutional republic into a digital dictatorship armed with algorithms and powered by unaccountable, all-seeing artificial intelligence.
This, Maga, if you bloody remember, was what you were once pushing back on.
And what...
But soon as he buys Twitter, you fall to your bloody knees instead of calling him out for what he's doing and John Whitehead is talking about.
This isn't about national security.
John says it's about control.
According to news reports, the Trump administration is quietly collaborating with Palantir Technologies, the data mining behemoth, co-founded by billionaire Peter Thiel, to construct a centralized government-wide surveillance system that would consolidate biometric, behavioral, and geolocation data.
into a single weaponized database of Americans' private information.
This isn't about protecting freedom.
It's about rendering freedom obsolete.
What we're witnessing, he says, is the transformation of America into a digital prison, one where the inmates are told we're free while every move, every word, every thought is monitored.
Recorded and used to assign a threat score that determines our place in the new hierarchy of obedience.
Now, if this was being done by the Democrats or the left, then the right would be furious.
It would be screaming conspiracy, dystopia, deep state.
But because their man Trump is doing it, it's okay.
Fortunately, there are many who have been in the MAGA who are beginning to see it now.
John says this puts one more step along the road to China's dystopian system of social credit scores and Big Brother surveillance.
The tools enabling this all-seeing surveillance regime are not new, but under Trump's direction, they are being fused together in unprecedented ways with Palantir at the center of this digital dragnet.
In this new regime, your innocence will be irrelevant.
The algorithm will decide who you are and if you're guilty.
So Trump's embrace of Palantir and its unparalleled ability to fuse surveillance feeds, social media, metadata, public records, and AI-driven predictions marks a dangerous evolution, a modern-day resurrection of main core, digitalized, centralized, and fully automated.
What has emerged is a surveillance model more vast Than anything dreamed up by past regimes, a digital tyranny in which every citizen becomes both observed and self-regulated.
So, this is happening under Trump, who said he was against all this.
But that's how they play the perceptual game.
Trump wouldn't do that.
He's against all that.
So, Palantir is headed by this guy, Peter Thiel and Alex Karp.
And this is Alex Karp speaking to Palantir shareholders.
I wonder if you really would want this guy surveilling and controlling your life.
Alex, as always, we have a lot of individual investors on the line.
Is there anything you'd like to say before we end the call?
We're doing it!
We're doing it!
And I'm sure you're enjoying this as much as I am.
Let's not talk to analysts about the burden of being right.
Our burdens of investing in ontology, our burdens of actually looking at the math, the burden of reading what the Rule of 40 is, the burden of being honest about what an enterprise software company is, or the burden of explaining to your friends that you're really happy.
Maybe we should just stop talking about it.
I'm very happy to have you along for the journey, and you are partners for us.
Every Palantirian, we are crushing it.
Everyone else is listening.
We're dedicating our company.
We have dedicated our company to the service of the West and the United States of America.
And we're super proud of the role we play, especially in places we can't talk about.
And we love our success in the U.S. and globally.
Also, you know, we are doing what in the United Kingdom and many other places.
Palantir is here to disrupt and make the institutions we partner with the very best in the world and when it's necessary to scare enemies and on occasion kill them.
We hope you're in favor of that.
We hope you're enjoying being a partner.
And we're really happy and very, very focused on what we're doing.
Thank you for your time.
Thank you.
That concludes Q&A for today's call.
And Palantir have been using their technology to support Israel's war slaughter in Gaza.
And here, Alex Karp was challenged on that.
Lovely man.
That a few people get wealthy and if you said platitudes that were obviously stupid you could How do you kill Palestinians with their AI and technology?
You're killing my family in Palestine.
What kind of person are you?
How do you sleep at night?
Shame on you!
Do you want to hear my answer?
Sure, Mike!
Okay.
So, I think the primary cause of death, the Palestinians...
Well, you don't want to hear an answer.
Obviously.
So the primary source of death in Palestine is the fact that Hamas has realized that there are millions and millions of useful idiots that will...
I'm not using that excuse.
This is why you have left at this beach.
Because you are killing my people and you're justifying it because of Hamas or anyone else.
Can we get security up there?
I have your AI and your technology from Palatir to kill Palestinians!
Mostly terrorists, that's true.
She believes I'm evil.
I believe she's an unwitting product of an evil force, Hamas.
That she unwittingly is part of their strategy.
that she is a product.
And the most important thing, arguably, in the book, or what you could learn is, Alex Karp, the ultimate useful idiot who follows an ideology that seems sensible to him.
And Peter Thiel was also questioned at another event about Palantir's support for Israel's nightmare attacks on Gaza where they're using their technology to identify targets.
Now, Peter Thiel thinks of himself as some kind of intellectual giant.
I wonder if you do.
after watching this.
Look, I'm not, you know, without going into all the details, you know, I...
I'm not on top of all the details of what's going on in Israel because my bias is to defer to Israel.
It's not for us to second guess.
And I believe that broadly the IDF gets to decide what it wants to do and that they're broadly in the right.
And that's sort of the perspective I come back to.
And if I fall into the trap of arguing you on every detailed point, I would actually be conceding the broader issue that the Middle East should be micromanaged from Cambridge.
And I think that's just simply absurd.
So I'm not going to concede that point.
So these are the sort of clowns who are building the dystopian state on behalf of the hidden masters who they answer to.
Like all dictators, Trump is having a military parade to mark his and the military's birthday while telling anyone who thinks of protesting against this self-indulgence and enormous cost that they will be subjected to very big And
he also wants to jail anyone who burns the american flag to be sentenced to a year in jail and he said this while talking to troops and completely politicizing the military getting them to boo
That's not what he's there to do.
So here he is wanting to jail people for burning the American flag.
But they proudly carry the flags of other countries.
But they don't carry the American flag.
They only burn it.
Did you see a lot of the flags being burned?
They weren't being burned by people from our country or from people that love our country.
People that burn the American flag should go to jail for one year.
That's what they should be doing.
One year.
And we'll see if we can get that done.
We're going to try and get that done.
We're working with some of your senators.
I know Senator Josh Hawley is very much involved.
Whenever I hear this come up, and it does from time to time, they should jail people for burning the flag, always reminds me of a wonderful clip by the great comedian,
no longer with us unfortunately, Bill Hicks, when he was responding to An earlier demand for consequences for those who burn the flag.
Thank you.
I'm sick of this shit, man.
Our emotions are running wild and our mind is stuck, man.
The flag burning thing.
Oh God, did that bring up some fucking retarded emotions?
The flag!
The flag!
They didn't say that.
They said if a guy burns a flag, he perhaps doesn't need to go to jail for a fucking year.
Pretty harsh on their part, isn't it?
People are going, hey, buddy, let me tell you something.
My daddy died for that flag.
Really?
I bought mine.
You know, they sell them at Kmart and shit.
He died in the Korean War for that flag.
What a coincidence.
Mine was made in Korea.
Didn't die for a fucking flag.
It's a piece of cloth.
He died for what the flag represents, which is the freedom to burn the fucking flag.
And as my friend Jimmy Pineapple would say, case fucking closed.
The voice of sanity.
And you know, one of the conspiracies that's been flying around over the years is that Alex Jones is Bill Hicks.
Well, when you see Alex Jones cheering on and promoting this Trump regime, given where it's taking not just America, it's just...
And then you see Bill Hicks pushing back on it when he was alive.
Alex Jones, he's no Bill Hicks.
And here we have now the increasing emphasis on attacking Iran.
And it's coming, of course.
From Israel.
And so we have this story.
Trump confirms US personnel are being removed from parts of the Middle East.
President Donald Trump confirmed that United States personnel are being moved out of parts of the Middle East amid escalating tensions with Israel and Iran.
The State Department ordered the departure of all non-essential staff from its embassy in Baghdad, Iraq, due to concern over increased security risks in the region, according to two State Department officials familiar with the matter.
Another U.S. official said that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has authorized the voluntary departure of military dependents from locations across the Middle East.
Trump's comments come as the administration has worked to reach a deal with Tehran to limit its nuclear program.
The two sides have held several rounds of talks but have not come to an agreement.
No, because that's not the idea.
You have Trump's special envoy on the Middle East, a Jewish real estate developer called Steve Witkoff.
So he's obviously going to be unbiased in what he does.
And Trump, like Wyckoff, is owned by Israel.
And Israel wants a conflict, has long wanted a conflict with Iran.
So this is Trump replying to a question from a journalist about why the personnel are being removed.
You provide an update on Iran.
We're hearing reports that U.S. personnel are being moved out of the region within striking distance.
Well, they are being moved out because it could be a dangerous place, and we'll see what happens.
But they are, and we've given notice to move out, and we'll see what happens.
Is there anything that can be done to dial the temperature down in the region?
They can't have a nuclear weapon.
Very simply.
They can't have a nuclear weapon.
We're not going to allow that.
You know, there's a saying, a motto for the 33rd degree of Freemasonry.
It's order ab chaos.
Order out of chaos.
Create the chaos problem and offer the solution.
To the chaos.
And that is problem, reaction, solution, perfectly described.
And what Trump is doing is systematically creating the chaos, the dismantling of the status quo in every direction.
So that's the public part of the Dot Connector this week.
