New American Journal #12! Gray Area Talks | Call In Show!

Rex Jones and Tim Tompkins dissect economic collapse, analyzing $44,000 childbirth costs and formula prices that force families into "tribal" living. They critique China's rare earth dominance over Tesla and Goldman Sachs, arguing the U.S. military lost its edge against Iranian drone swarms despite trillion-dollar spending. Callers debate Federal Reserve rigging, AI layoffs, and seed oil dangers, while hosts defend Alex Jones against legal judgments and promote supplements like Elemental Drive as resistance tools against a corrupt globalist system.

New World Order Conspiracy 00:16:00
alex jones
Now, in the first hour, I took some calls that disagreed.
Then David Icke was on.
Folks held.
We're going to go to you right now.
People that disagree, 800 2599 231.
I need to do this more.
Not just where people that disagree go to the head of the line because we don't screen your calls unless you volunteer that because it's always just a way for somebody to get to the head of the line.
I disagree with you.
The New World Order is worse than you say.
You know, it's stuff like that.
Or I know you're working for the Reptoids or, you know, whatever the joke is.
I'm talking about people that think this is a loving global government we have.
Or people that think it's good to have false flag terror attacks that are now admitted.
That's what we're talking about.
Then I'm going to get into our story that's up at drudgereport.com.
A lot of other big sites are picking it up.
Catching the bizarre TSA freeze security drill caught on camera.
We've got an initiative to expose what the TSA is up to.
Our crew went to the NSA a few days ago.
That aired on the nightly news last night.
We have some video of that.
Also, the analysis of Judge Dredd conditioning people for the police state and an update from the thought criminal who has now been charged in court for riding on the street with chalk here in the formerly free United States of America.
Now, the psychopath globalist run New World Order.
George Scott, others are going to you right now.
George in Connecticut, welcome to the airwaves.
You are on the air.
unidentified
Hi, Alex.
george in connecticut
I sort of disagree with the way you handle certain things.
It's not so much the subject matter, but I think that it's very frustrating when you get upset and then get us all worked up.
And it's like getting worked up for going to the ball and we don't know where to go.
Some solutions or action plans might be more in line because I don't want to get all burnt out and bent out of shape and not.
And something like the shark thing.
Why not call up the governor's office and have this judge pulled?
I mean, this is outrageous.
Give the number out of the governor or whoever's in charge of putting these judges in power.
When there's 10,000 calls to the governor to yank this judge, don't you think the judge might have a different point of view?
alex jones
I don't know.
They might make the judge king of California.
They're like, wow, you hate freedom?
You're God.
Listen, I hear you and I appreciate your call.
Look, look, I am a reporter, not a general.
You know, I have like generals call me up and famous spies, and Alex, you need to lead the resistance.
And either it's a setup or they're not living in the real world.
I am here to try to give you full spectrum breakdown from different angles of what I believe is going on.
Okay.
Doesn't mean I have all the answers.
And then I believe in you enough that you're going to go out and take action and wake people up.
I didn't know that in Austin, the state police, if they see you who are operating in Austin, that's who I've found out's done it twice, will arrest children, women.
They don't care.
If they see kids playing hopscotch, you're going to jail.
Of course, they should just go to Target then and Walmart and HEB and arrest people selling it.
I mean, this is a system that wants to put the Amish behind bars because they're not criminals, who wants to, you know, but protect the government that runs the drugs and ships the guns to Mexico.
They attack you for, they arrest you for protesting on the streets of Austin now.
Even though they lose the court cases, they don't care.
It's the enemy.
It's got to be driven out of existence before the implosion.
They will follow orders until the edge of hell.
They would feed their children into wood chippers if ordered to.
I mean, it's that level of evil.
And they're not even evil themselves.
They're zombies.
They will follow orders right to Nuremberg, too.
Because they're zombies.
They're not real people anymore.
You talk to most, just the general public, they're not there.
Nobody's home.
So move on to those that aren't completely destroyed.
We don't laugh at the zombies.
We don't laugh at the jellyfish.
We're sad for them.
They'll be dead from cancer viruses and fluoride soon enough, anyways, and GMO.
You just have to move on and triage the victims.
It's like, oh, I'm sorry, you're destroyed.
When they smile at you with a demonic look on their face, that's a program.
It's a program.
They're in fantasy.
They watch cartoons as kids of the tough guys.
They watch pro wrestling.
They think it's real.
That's usually the type now they get as cops, and they believe that you're the bad guy and they're going to show you.
They don't know they've got a look of demon in their eye.
This is the new America.
We are a fallen, abortion loving, a partial birth abortion loving, 50 plus million babies we cut up.
So they're going to cut us up.
And they're going to cut up your pension funds and all the prosperity's gone.
It's gone.
You want it, you got it.
Replaced with the prosperity and the property and the health will be petty power trips where everyone from a toll booth attendant to a McDonald's employee can spy on you and henpeck you.
And that's the new sacrament.
Okay, I'm ranting.
We have to find people who haven't been put in the zombie state.
I mean, it really more and more comes down to that.
It comes down to consciousness and, and, and, and, People being spiritually blind.
I mean, you talk about solutions.
I'm going to go out as soon as I get the time and I'm going to draw freedom all over the street.
And if I get arrested, so what?
You know, I mean, that's the whole point.
Well, you could get arrested.
Well, yeah, I could live in a police state too if I don't stand up against this.
What's next?
Arresting you as a terrorist for protesting?
Oh, they do that now at the DNC.
And the Pentagon shows up in court and says, keep him in jail.
Protesting is terrorism.
And you're like, that sounds crazy.
They're getting you used to it.
This is, they're like, hey, we chop up babies.
It's not a human.
Oh, yeah, it's nine months old.
We could adopt it.
You know, if you had that baby and killed it yourself a week premature, we'd put you in jail, but we're going to chop it up now.
We're going to take your baby's blood at birth and put it in a DNA database.
We're going to do what we want, when we want.
We're going to give your kids inoculations without consent, even though it's illegal.
We're going to lie to you and say it's the law to take shots.
We're going to do what we want.
We're going to kill you and you're going to thank us for it.
There are hundreds of GMO studies on record.
They just came out more this week.
big major French government studies, you name it, U.S. studies, that these mainline GMO crops that kill the bugs that eat them, little tip, if corn or wheat kills bugs when they eat it, it has pesticide that naturally grows in it, that they accelerate a thousand times at least, and it kills bugs, it's going to kill you.
And you're going to get gut disorders and you're going to get cancer.
I mean, we're living in fruitcake land, folks, and I'm off the reservation.
I know it's the matrix.
I see it for what it is, and I'm beyond caring what they do to me physically because I am here to stand up for my species.
I will not just sit here and plug back into the matrix and go off into the hinterlands.
I'm going to, I got Simon in England and others, but let's go to Scott in North Carolina, then Simon.
Scott, you're on the air.
Thanks for holding.
unidentified
Go ahead.
scott in north carolina
Hey, thanks, Alex.
It's not that I disagree with you.
I'm skeptical.
I'm skeptical of a lot of things, but I'm not in denial.
So, as your guest said earlier, I'm a good, decent human being who listens to you almost every day for about three years now.
And I think you're not a general, but you're an attorney general who has an indictment against the system.
So, I listen to you as a grand juror trying to make a decision as to who's, you know, what's the best for humanity.
Is it the new world order?
Is it, you know, fighting back?
Is it maybe just sitting back and letting God take care of the whole situation?
You know, I don't know, but I listened to you and I think that your arguments are very persuasive.
The caller that was angry with you because you were angry, I don't think he was a bad guy.
I think he knows what you have to say is right, but he doesn't know what to do with it.
He's frightened.
alex jones
Well, sir, let me just say this about the point you were just making.
What was the middle point you made?
Because I wanted to comment on that.
scott in north carolina
Oh, gee, I sat for an hour trying to make points.
The attorney general was an indictment.
alex jones
Look, look, here's the deal.
You said God, just let God handle it.
God works through humans.
Or if you don't believe in God, the universe, whatever.
But it becomes a cop out.
I mean, listen, if we won't stand up against it, when the UN last year in India alone, with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation funding, 67,000 children were given weaponized polio that paralyzed them or killed them.
And they've got us to the point where it was just in the news like, yeah, we gave 67,000 it.
It's no big deal, though.
You know, Earth, but we've got to stick our hands down your pants because terrorists killed a couple thousand.
I mean, it's all just pure bull.
I mean, are you saying you don't believe that there are dangerous psychos running the world government right now?
scott in north carolina
No, I, you know, I don't.
I mean, I don't know their heart, you know, and, you know, as I listen to your show, I love the points you make about how we're creative human beings.
You're a good person, Alex, but, you know, if they're basing, I'm agnostic.
unidentified
I don't.
scott in north carolina
Say that there's a God.
I don't say that there isn't a God.
God help us, is what I say.
I think that, well, it's my point now, that we, I hope because it seems that they're stronger, that their intentions are good.
Your intentions are good, but are the people behind the scenes?
They never speak up.
They never say what really is going on.
alex jones
That's because they don't think you're human.
They won't even talk to you unless they know you know that their whole plan.
There's not many of them that know the whole plan.
This whole thing's about master deception of compartmentalization.
The value of this broadcast, not even what I'm doing, but what we do together, is unmeasurable.
I mean, this is as close to what's really going on as you're going to get, okay?
And, you know, you're like, oh, they're so strong.
I hope they're not bad.
Brother, brother, have you seen the art billionaires buy?
Even the New York Times has written about this.
The most popular art is images of dead children hanging off meat hooks and things like that.
I mean, these people are beyond Hellraiser.
Have you looked at what governments do in history?
That's not humanity.
That's the psychos that crave the power.
We're going to go to Aaron in Nevada in a moment.
But first, let's go to Simon in England.
People who disagree with me.
Go ahead.
unidentified
It's an honor, Alex.
aaron in nevada
I don't disagree with you about much, but there's one thing where I think the globalists have been hoodwinked as well as perhaps yourself being misguided.
And it's about the HIV/AIDS story.
I'll quote from a review by Mike Adams on Natural News.
He talks about this film, House of Numbers, which has really broken the certainty that anybody has that there is either that there is a virus at all or that the virus is harmful.
And he says essentially being labeled HIV positive is a tactic being used around the world to scare people into buying more high profit AIDS drugs.
unidentified
Sure.
No, no.
alex jones
What they do is they use this virus as a cover for other viruses.
That they're really injecting people with the vaccine.
So they are killing in some countries half the population in Africa or more with HIV, or what they claim is.
It's a very sophisticated issue, but there are government patents for the autoimmune virus developed.
I mean, it is a eugenic system.
And then it's just a minor footnote, you know, when they give 67,000 kids polio last year in the vaccine.
It's like, oh, yeah, it's a footnote.
They're dead or in wheelchairs now.
We're loving government, though.
You need to trust us.
So, yes, I mean, look at all these famous boxers and basketball players who go, oh, I got the cure.
And they're alive, you know, 20 years later.
But then the guy that, you know, had a thousand sexual partners and snorted methamphetamine all day, they die.
Well, they died because they were on so many drugs.
unidentified
Go ahead.
Well, exactly.
aaron in nevada
Yeah.
I mean, it's interesting.
I'm in England, which is famous for having a very strong culture for defamation.
And yet I'm happy to say that Robert Gallo, Who committed academic fraud when he published the papers saying that he'd found this virus?
And I actually wonder whether the globalists they were thinking, oh, great, great, this virus has come along, but he kind of got one over them as well.
alex jones
Well, it is true.
No, I mean, it is true that the AIDS drugs, many of them actually kill you, and they've tested them on foster children.
Gee, people really aren't disagreeing.
You don't have to say you're disagreeing, you know, usually to get on air.
I just, people really aren't disagreeing with me.
I mean, I want to hear why the New World Order is good.
I want to hear why I'm wrong about that.
That's what I've been asking.
Aaron in Nevada, you're on the air.
scott in north carolina
I disagree with this notion of yours that it's not about Alex Jones.
It is about Alex Jones.
You built yourself up into this position.
Now it's time for you to take the ball and go across and score that touchdown.
alex jones
Well, I've got to learn how to balance my checkbook first, good.
Look, man, I'm working up here some days, 18 hours a day, trying to get the word out and cover things, but I.
I mean, what am I supposed to do?
scott in north carolina
We need a Brown versus Board of Education moment.
And I like what Paul Watson's doing on Facebook right now.
Everyone should join that.
And I like what you're proposing to do, which is get arrested and fight it in the court.
That's beautiful, Alex.
You are the man.
alex jones
Well, look, I mean, it's not fun to get arrested, but I mean, if you can't draw political slogans on city sidewalks, which has always been protected, and they call that vandalism, see, they're misappropriating something to falsely charge you.
It's like they say it's the law to take vaccines.
No, they falsely kicked you out of school for something that isn't the law, that's a policy that by law they've got to give you a waiver to.
Then they trigger when they kick you out truancy and come arrest you or your parents for that.
It's all a fraud.
It's a syndicate.
It's a conspiracy of color of law, civil rights violation.
And all the codes are there.
And they've got walnut brains with ADIQs that probably can't tie their shoelaces that will arrest you for it.
And it's all got to be rammed through these criminal courts.
Here's a great example.
The video's up at Infowars.com.
Infowars reporters are confronted by NSA.
They were already going to be down there fighting RFID, the kids got to wear it at the government training camps that they track them outside school with as well.
So I said, why don't you go by the NSA?
And I said, give them the court ruling.
where the NSA lost a lawsuit in Maryland saying you can't videotape and give them this ACLU fact sheet.
Now, the San Antonio Express News and the other San Antonio paper, the Weekly, they had their cameras taken and erased.
And we have that linked in our story.
When our people had the sunglasses, they could see, to use the they live analogy, the cops and the federal NSA people said, okay, you can go.
We put you in our database trying to intimidate, but the point is you can go because they understood.
Prison Planet Tyranny 00:09:21
alex jones
We understand.
You're the ones that are criminals spying on us without warrants and protecting your precious Al Qaeda.
We know you're illegal, you're criminal, you work farm banks.
We're exposing your giant criminal centers all over the country.
And you're the terrorists.
You stage 9 11 so you can go right to Hades.
When we come back, I'll mention it's on our government.
The millions that work for it might be Americans and might not be bad guys, but the system's run by El Diablo.
You're not supposed to just get happy about Homeland Security checkpoints with TSA now on the highway.
And police being federalized and all of this.
I'm supposed to just, hey, it's good.
By the way, if you think I'm joking, we put up the video on screen of your prisonplanet.tv viewer of FEMA teaches police that founding fathers were terrorists.
You can just search that term and find the video that a firefighter sent us of FEMA teaching them that.
And we have the training manuals.
Obviously, the bad guys teach that.
Are we saying the entire system's bad?
No, not at the bottom, at the top.
Our country is rotting and it will collapse.
Those of you that love tyranny, you're going to get everything you want.
Don't worry.
Let's talk to Jim in Minnesota who disagrees.
We're on the air, Jim.
Hello, Jim.
Yes.
Yes.
unidentified
Yeah.
Hello.
Well, you start getting wound up there.
alex jones
Thank you.
unidentified
Go ahead.
Well, I found myself agreeing with you while I was listening.
You mentioned Title 18, 241 and 242, and also Title 42, 1983 and 1985.
However, oftentimes you're talking about how Obama wants to take our guns away, or the TSA is acting with unwarranted searches, and that this violates the law.
And I tend to disagree.
I don't believe that's what's actually happening.
alex jones
Are you kidding?
I mean, they ship guns to Mexico to try to blame the Second Amendment.
Obama's trying to restrict guns outside of law.
The UN treaty said it would restrict guns.
The TSA aren't even sworn officers now running highway checkpoints.
That are totally illegal, sir.
I don't care what you think.
It's on record that that is totally unconstitutional and the stuff of third world banana boat republics.
unidentified
Genius is conspicuous through modesty and silence.
alex jones
Okay, listen, give me your facts then.
How is TSA on the highway running checkpoints constitutional?
unidentified
The point of it is that the presumption of laws that we all got 6001 notice.
scott in north carolina
We got due process.
alex jones
I appreciate your call, dude.
I mean, we're in a tyranny.
We're in a tyranny.
We're in a tyranny.
It's getting worse by the minute, and you're just throwing out some terms that mean nothing.
You don't have due process under force du jour when they got a checkpoint set up under admiralty.
Administrative law coming after you.
Man, you're out of your mind.
Joe in Alaska, you're on the air.
unidentified
Go ahead.
mary in colorado
Hi, Alex.
I got to tell you that there's the information that you speak of.
I do agree.
I've been awake for about 10 years.
After listening to your show for the last four years, I'm almost at the point of joining the pro eugenics argument.
I mean, I get bombarded with idiocracy on a daily basis when I leave my home.
alex jones
Yeah, man, those are brain damaged people under the eugenics and the cultural brainwashing.
And sure, the average yuppie thinks.
Everybody is scum.
Let's kill everybody.
The point is, ma'am, they're going to kill you too.
You're getting fluoride.
You're getting vaccines.
You're getting chemtrail.
You're getting GMO.
Do you understand that?
mary in colorado
Yes, I do.
Like I said, I have Crohn's disease that I developed five years ago because of genetically modified food where my intestines interrupted and I would turn septic and had to have treatment for the last three years.
unidentified
There you go.
mary in colorado
I get this.
I understand it.
I agree with you.
What I'm frustrated with is the amount of idiocracy I hear you complain about the stupid people that won't wake up.
alex jones
Ma'am, you're more advanced.
You're not brain damaged like them.
To that extent, they're just victims.
You can't say, you know oh, I get the elite now because they already, you know, gave them lobotomies.
mary in colorado
Well no, I mean we, i'm my own mother.
unidentified
How about this?
mary in colorado
My own mother told me not to talk to her about the things that i'm interested in because she doesn't get it she wants.
She literally said, can't you just call me and talk to me about dancing with the stars?
alex jones
I hear you listen.
Those people are victims.
You need to love your mother, plant seeds with your mother and move on.
Darling, I hear you, I understand and i'm sorry.
Ask yourselves, what are you doing in this time of great challenge?
unidentified
What are you doing to unlock minds?
alex jones
We have a bunch of crooks that want a dominated society so they can control human development in charge.
And it's that simple.
And you can disagree about how bad things are with me, but people that are still denying there's no world government when they now admit it, it's just so silly.
I mean, here's Hillary Clinton, and I'm going to go to a call from Kim, New York Times.
Clinton suggests linked to Al Qaeda offshoot in deadly Libya attack.
I mean, they give all these different narratives.
They put Al Qaeda in.
That's how dumb they think you are.
And still, the number one story in America is NFL reference.
NFL referees agree to deal with league to end lockout.
And I've got a guest on about the fraud that is sports and how most of it's rigged now.
Today on the Nightly News, coming up at 7 o'clock, subscribe at PrisonPlanet.tv.
There's a 15 day free trial, two week trial right there.
So go sign up, watch it, support us, support alternative media.
Take the archives, share them with people, prisonplanet.tv.
Kim in Georgia, you disagree.
Go ahead.
unidentified
Yes, Mr. Jones, first time caller.
Thank you for talking to me.
Been listening to you for a couple of weeks.
Isn't it pretty much common knowledge that history repeats itself and that every superpower empire has destroyed itself from the inside out?
And this is all pretty much inevitable.
And if we.
Don't rise up, millions of people die.
And if we do rise up, millions of people die.
What do you got to say to that?
alex jones
But if we do rise up, at least in the info war, we win, even though a bunch of us die and get put in prison.
Or we don't rise up and they win, even more die.
But look, the issue is this is the 21st century.
The globalists in countless documents say, oh, we're creating the final revolution.
Look that term up.
They've learned from the past tyrants.
They want to fully take over and never be defeated and not have their evil collapse.
And so it's a darkness from which we don't emerge if we don't beat them.
It is a dream of just psychopathic demons that they're trying to manifest.
So we've got to defeat it.
And it's the great animating challenge.
You're not, if you're not resisting this, you're not alive.
If you're alive, really alive at some level, you know to resist this.
And so when people laugh at you and ridicule you for being awake, it's sad.
Don't feel bad.
That some zombie is making fun of you, they're following a mental masturbation program to just make fun of you because it makes them feel good.
Okay, so you need to look up the ultimate revolution or the final revolution to understand all this.
unidentified
I understand, but my point being is that either way, if millions die, don't they win ultimately?
alex jones
No, they don't win ultimately.
The churches twist the Bible and teach that, you know, the The beast wages war against the saints and overcomes them.
But through that is the other, the next mass awakening that happens.
But God's people will challenge the evil.
They won't go along with it.
That's why they teach the rapture and all this is so people stand down.
And so people go along with it, thinking they're going to have a golden rope come down and God's going to pull them up there.
There's like a room up there with Captain Kirk and they're beaming people up and down.
I mean, all of our Christian ancestors didn't get beamed out.
They had to go through absolute hell, many of them killed.
Almost all the disciples were executed.
I've seen preachers on TV now and in church teaching that Christians were wrong to say no to Caesar and to be thrown to the lions.
I mean, they teach abomination apostasy because the churches are now government whorehouses.
Does that answer your question?
unidentified
I suppose, but just playing a devil's advocate, since I've been listening to you, I've bought over a thousand rounds of ammunition and I signed up for e foods and all that.
So I was just playing a devil's advocate to see what you would tell me.
alex jones
No, I hear you, and thanks for putting up with me.
God bless you, brother.

So Monday is going to be the day that I do solo out of the week because I need my solo practice.
And if you don't do solo practice, then you start to, you're not as good a performer.
You know, you're not able to project as well.
You kind of rely on having your guest host or just a host in general.
I don't want to just do that.
I want to do like one on one shows with you guys.
That being said, in doing a daily show, the most essential thing to do, which I learned at InfoWars, which everyone learned at InfoWars, is to have the best guests, the best callers, the best people.
So, four days out of the week, there's going to be a guest host.
It's going to be Tim on Tuesdays, kind of carrying over the spirit of what we were doing on the American Journal Original on the InfoWars network, where Not today.
We're a little behind the eight ball on it, but we'll have a deep dive for you.
Of course, we're going to take your calls today.
We're going to do news blitz, talk about things.
I know Tim will have some videos.
I know he'll have some grander point that he wants to make, but I got a lot on my mind.
So we're going to have fun today.
And then Wednesday and Friday, it's going to be Anthony Graffio.
And also, the way this is going to work is it's not going to be a full three hour with the guest host.
Okay.
It's going to be me and the guest host will come on for two hours.
So Tim will come on.
From 9 to 11 or from 8 to 10, whatever the schedule is, whatever.
Kind of the same thing with Anthony Graffio.
That's just how it's going to work.
That's how it's going to kind of progress moving forward.
And I've just, I just want to give a shout out again to Austin.
Like, you know who you are.
If you're cool with me saying your X handle, I'll start giving it out.
But I've got a really phenomenal dude who is just getting out of school now and is helping me with so many things like the intros that you're seeing, the Alex Jones montages.
I mean, it, It warms my heart and it also inspires me and shows me the direction that we need to go with like the art style and the media and just like everything we do advertisement, sponsorship, memberships, promotions, all of it.
Like it truly was such a beautiful system that my dad built.
And I think, you know, this saying, like people say, like he's forgotten more than you'll ever know.
Like nowhere is that more true than my dad.
I was going through my closet today.
I was like, what am I going to wear?
Because, like, usually I wear like a polo shirt or something, or just like a collared shirt that's fun.
Like a Hawaiian shirt in the spirit of Larry Johnson.
But, you know, I just, after the InfoWars, like RIP, after the public execution or whatever it is, after the throw into purgatory, the merch is just so cool now.
Like, I love having the amount of merch that I have.
I have so many shirts.
I probably have like 50, and it's really incredible.
And, you know, like I put that painting up online and people got freaked out by it and whatever.
I have a hard time parting with any one of these shirts ever.
I was looking through, I was like, huh, maybe I can just let some t shirts go.
And I'm like, nah, these are just too special to me because I know the design, I know the era, I know when it was made, I know why it was made.
It's a lot deeper to me, honestly.
Even this shirt with the meme compilations, all those different photos of my dad and stuff, it used to be on the Alex Jones store.
I don't think you can buy it anymore.
Yeah, limited edition.
I guess now I'm dripped out in designer, vintage designer.
And you all are too, probably.
I probably have so many people in here.
That got something on the old store.
And like, that's the thing.
And I had a guy come in yesterday and he was like, Hey, man, really like the show.
It was on one of my posts that had like less comments on or whatever.
So he knew I would notice it.
And he says, Hey, man, listen, kind of talking about stuff we all know about already.
I want you to cover new stuff, blah, blah, blah.
We're going to get to that.
Okay.
This show is a work in progress.
I'm working on getting better every single time I come in here.
That's an incremental thing.
It's going to be exponential once we reach a certain point.
And I would argue that's already started to happen.
But, you know, just bear with me a little bit.
And I just want to reminisce.
unidentified
Okay.
rex jones
They burned down my home, it burned down my village.
I can't go back there anymore.
So I like thinking about it.
I like the old AJ clips.
I'm going to have so many different montages for you guys.
We're going to go do stuff out in the field.
Like, I was watching that clip because I was watching live, the intro live with you guys as well.
Because I was using the bathroom.
I had to go to the bathroom.
I had to take a shower as well.
I was like, you know what?
Yesterday, I didn't take a shower and I came on stream.
I look like a greasy pig.
So maybe today I won't look like a greasy pig.
I'll go take a shower, whatever.
I'm listening to live.
And he's like, you know, I should just go down to the sidewalk and write freedom on the sidewalk.
You know, I'd love to do stuff like that.
I think I am going to start doing stuff like that.
That I think it's really important.
It also reminded me like, I haven't thought about the magazine in a very long time.
I saw a stack of them a few years ago, I was like, wow!
But we used to have Infowars magazine, and I'll have to.
Um, there's got to be a digitized format of one that's been uploaded.
If someone has that, um, like, at me about it, I'll send you a free product of your choice.
If you have like the digital save magazine, just at me under like the Twitter post.
And my point with that is just like, there's so much independent art that we created.
And the cool thing about AI is you can now do that yourself on a grand scale.
But the thing is, you have to have the AI editing tools plus the real world editing knowledge and just a lot of trial and error, a lot of history, or a lot of really good mentors.
And I think I'm going to have the rare and beautiful opportunity of creating something new.
And of course, just like anything new, it's always old, right?
Like it's always just an old concept that's been brought into the modern era.
But I can't believe, after watching all those videos, Of my dad and whatnot, and making the compilations.
And Austin did most of that, but I sent him a ton for source material.
It's really crazy.
No one's gotten it right.
Like, besides him, of course, like everyone else you see doing it, it's a cheap knockoff.
And that's not to diss anybody's content or whatever.
I hate that word.
Media, media, not content.
I need that.
Media, not content.
Media, not content.
Exactly.
Human, not influencer, media, not content.
Great shirt.
But when I see other people's media or content or whatever, like, you know, I think Fuentes does a good job of doing the style justice.
He just doesn't run ads and he's even got the edits and all of it.
Like, that's InfoWars.
That's probably the closest you could get, just being like true to the spirit of the original intellectual property.
Someone like Sam Hyde is a bit interesting because, of course, he predates like Golden Era InfoWars.
But at the same time, I think that the, uh, I think the influence cannot be denied.
I think you look at a show like Hyde Wars, for example, and just all these other things.
I mean, basically, anybody that has what appears to be a TV room or a TV set, and they're either reading live chat or they're reading or they're taking calls or doing live reads for things or products.
Like my dad started all that.
People go, people are doing advertisements for your father was around, son.
Yes, absolutely.
My dad was the first person to do it on the internet, basically, among the first 100 people of any substance to do it, and really probably among the top 10 of.
So, look at Rogan.
Who was Rogan inspired by?
He was inspired by that other guy with the podcast show, but he was also inspired by my father.
So, just so many interesting things to look at from that perspective.
And I really did this thing with my pen.
I did this thing with Sean Kelly, and he's got like a broadcasting show he does on YouTube and stuff.
And I think I'm going to do something again with him soon because he's coming to Austin in a couple of weeks.
And I've really been working on this.
I got a little Google Doc where I'm kind of kicking things around.
I want to talk about alternative media and what it truly means and what it truly is and the art form that originated back in the late 90s.
Early 2000s.
And I think I can do a good job elucidating that for people.
And my point with all of that, my point with saying all of that is how do we let the guy that creates the model, like the Wright Brothers plane type of thing, how do we let that guy suffer and get tortured and the public doesn't defend him and doesn't say, hey, I may disagree with the guy, but he's a legend.
He's been on air for 32 years.
They shut him down, they chopped his legs off, they bragged about it.
How is any of that okay?
And I know I'm doing Alex Jones apologetics now, but I'm just doing it from a different perspective.
It's like the founder of a genre, the voice that launched a thousand ships.
And then we just go, ah, invalidate.
You said mean thing about person, a billion dollar judgment.
Alex Jones Apologetics 00:04:41
rex jones
And no one comes out to defend him because they're too scared of like crying parents or something.
unidentified
I lost my kid.
rex jones
Give me a billion dollars.
And you might say, well, that's a mischaracterization.
You know, you're talking bad about people that, you know, something really bad happened to them and they lost their children.
They had a guy and he came on, he lied about it, right?
That's what you're going to say.
And I'd say, well, people lie on cable news all the time.
They lie and get us into wars.
They get Americans killed.
They get Iranians killed.
They get Palestinians killed.
They get Israelis killed.
They get Lebanese killed every single day.
Literally millions of civilians dead because they pushed the WMD lie.
Jesse Waters goes on primetime TV and says that they didn't bomb the school.
So, how is denying a mass casualty event in one context?
Fine and totally good, actually.
It's rewarded.
You're rewarded by society because you're a part of the power structure, your establishment, your empty suit, you're paid.
But when an original guy, when the little man steps out of line, makes a little mistake, and that's what it is a little fucking mistake.
Fuck you, people.
It's a little mistake.
It's fucking small.
It's nothing compared to actual murder, actual death.
My father is not Adam Lanza.
But I just lay all that out for you.
I just, I don't see the level of public outrage that really is demanded and required when you, uh, When you kill a legend like this, it's not okay.
And my dad's going to be all right.
My dad has miraculous regenerative capabilities like Wolverine.
He can heal from basically anything, but they took a lot of years off his life, literally and metaphysically.
And I just, it's not okay.
And I just, I want to start off today.
And that's kind of my monologue, kind of what I've been thinking about kicking around in my head is like, I'm trying to do this for real.
And I've been going back.
To look for inspiration.
I've been going back to watch the old shows of the 2000s, the 90s, the 2010s, and see what that true zeitgeist spirit was about.
Because you can go watch an old Rogan episode.
You can go watch an old episode of My Dad.
You could even go watch an old episode of PBD.
Things were different, especially during that golden era, 2015 to 2018.
And before that, what went wrong?
And of course, I think we know what the answer is Trump.
And because even though our intentions were genuine, our intentions were pure.
They're wrapped up in a corrupt and evil person that we didn't know the truth about.
Or maybe we're willing to overlook it.
Maybe we didn't want to scratch the wall.
And that's the real mistake that I don't want to make again.
Going to make personal mistakes, going to make spiritual mistakes, going to make health mistakes, going to make wealth mistakes, whatever.
But I don't want to hitch my wagon to another political candidate or another political party because I just don't believe in it.
And I just don't believe in them.
And I am rooting for, as I've said, and I know that sounds black pill.
It's like, wow, you agree with Andrew Wilson.
It's like, it's Trump and the Democrats, or it's nothing.
Well, you know, there is some truth to that if we continue to live in this cold and evil and dark world.
And that's why I think my dad riding freedom on the sidewalk is such a powerful thing.
And why I'd like to do that and just start getting people to do that everywhere is like, can't we demand these things?
Can't we demand justice?
Can't we use our voice?
Can't we do something other than being on this all day?
Can't we do something different?
Seriously.
Like, I made a serious business decision to downsize and to cut a lot of costs.
And it's going to hurt me to do it in the short term, just opportunity wise.
But Long term, it's going to allow me to go 100% all in with y'all and to really focus on what we're doing here.
So, like, it's a powerful thing to have enough control in life to be able to go on a mission like this and sail a ship and go wherever I want.
I just want to say thank you to you guys because without your support, without everything that y'all have done, especially sharing the streams, that's the number one thing, I couldn't be here right now.
And the growth of the show has been truly amazing.
I also want to shout out Tim.
Of course, he'll be here in a little while, but without Gray Area, without getting started, without getting in motion, I wouldn't have done any of this.
So, very, very cool.
And we're very excited to do Gray Area now Tuesday morning, Thursday evening, Sunday evening.
So, that's the new schedule for that.
And then, of course, four other shows with me and then me and Anthony Graffio during the week.
And that's what it is.
Inflation vs Wage Growth 00:15:57
rex jones
And then I'll probably, I've been talking to people about this.
I'm not supposed to reveal insider information.
But I'm really bad about that.
I'm so bad about that.
I make so many mistakes.
I'm not supposed to reveal insider information, but I'm supposed to be a third hour host on somebody's show.
And I'm talented.
I love it.
I love them.
They should just let me do it.
Just let me do it.
Come on.
Come on, guys.
Come on.
Why not?
Okay, but I'll go ahead and get into the news.
I know that's not what y'all are here for.
I appreciate you listening to the monologue.
I know I'm not Fuentes.
I know I don't have the right to do it for a straight hour.
Shout out Wes.
Shout out Armfare.
Shout out Graffinati.
Shout out Abraham K. Shout out Mersey Dotes.
Shout out She Called Me Trash.
Shout out Holly Moore.
Shout out Dre.
Shout out Christian Warrior 9.
Shout out everybody Dre, DJ Jamie and Joe.
I know I'm missing people, but there are a lot of comments.
unidentified
All right.
rex jones
Let's go ahead and get into the news.
So I've got more stuff I want to cover that's domestic because I've been talking about the war.
Like all the time, all the time, all the time.
And until it fully restarts, I'm just going to calibrate.
I'm going to keep watching like Judge Napolitano and Glenn Deeson and Dialogue Works, and I'm just going to chill out.
And when Larry Johnson tells me, or when Lawrence Wilkerson tells me it's time to like get back into monitoring the situation, quote unquote, like 12 hours a day, I will.
But look at this, right?
So, new Iran threatens to enrich uranium to 90% weapons grade if attacked again by US or Israel.
Now, They are a threshold nuclear power, a threshold nuclear state.
And this is the thing it's kind of like Schrodinger's nuclear weapon, right?
Because they have more than enough enriched uranium.
I think they have enough to make 10 bombs, right?
But they have chosen not to go there deliberately because they know when they go there, they will immediately be nuked.
Okay.
So the real thing that you have to understand about the Iran war is that if they make a nuke, if they threaten to use one, that is what America and Israel want.
Because America and Israel, just as doomed as Iran is, if they make a nuclear weapon, Israel and America are doomed if Iran sticks to conventional weapons.
So, I don't even know if this is true.
I know it's true because it's DMT, but if this comes from an American source, I don't buy it.
But if this comes from the Iranians, I do buy it.
Of course, they have to threaten something, but this war really is a giant game of demonic chicken.
And it's really, really sick stuff, folks.
It's really disturbing.
So, just we got that volcano smoldering.
You know, it's like the one at Yellowstone.
What's that thing called?
All right, trivia question.
Trivia question number one for the show today What is the volcano called at Yellowstone National Park?
Winner gets a discount code.
I am actually not sure what it is, but look at this.
Just to carry on, I'm not going to spend too much time on the war.
Check this out.
So, this is pure distilled boomer bait.
This is like smoking off oil, smoking crack for boomers.
And this isn't to insult any of the wise elders that are in my audience.
I'm going to call you a wise elder, not a boomer.
Length of wars Afghanistan war 543, that's weeks, Iraq war 457, and Vietnam.
439, US Civil War, 209, World War II, 196, Korean War, 161, War of 1812, 139.
Iran excursion.
unidentified
Okay.
rex jones
So this is the first point.
There's actually a lot to get into here.
So I'm going to try to be concise.
Iran excursion.
Trump on the first day, March 28th, and I was beefing with people about this, all they would do on X is when he called this out for what it was on day one, hour one, on minute one, what they would say is 1973 war powers that boy.
The 1973 War Powers Act.
And Andrew Wilson, I'm sorry to keep bringing him up, but Andrew Wilson pretended not to know what it was.
He pretended to be someone that's like highly educated on geopolitics and didn't know what the 1973 War Powers Act was.
Now, to be fair, I got the days wrong.
I thought it was 90 days and not 60 days, but he pretended to not even know what it was.
unidentified
Right.
rex jones
And that's kind of what Trump did as well.
But keep in mind, Trump admitted that it was a war.
But now in his message to the public, you got to think about this like a fireside chat.
He's telling the people that it's an excursion.
So that's the first level of propaganda.
Second level of propaganda, you see how this is a bar graph that's been flipped on the Y axis, or I guess on the X axis, which is now on the Y axis.
See, that's a bar graph there.
You see how Iran excursion is in a red box that is a different color than everything else on there.
You got kind of green, gold.
I'm kind of colorblind.
I don't know what that is on the top.
You got black, you got blue, and you got red.
All right.
Now that's meant to draw your attention.
When I use red on a website, like on a sale button or on like a discount code button, I'm trying to incentivize people to like believe in the product or to get the product.
unidentified
Right.
rex jones
So he's selling you right there.
So that's another layer.
That's number two.
Number three, of course, is the bar graph is inverted.
Right.
So he's like, the war is actually in the negative.
We're negative six weeks because it's not a real war.
We've been at war for 47 years.
So, Trump, if the Iran excursion, Is six weeks and it's in the negative and it's a good thing.
If that's truly what you're selling us here, then how have we been at war with them for 47 years, you bitch ass MIGA?
Can someone explain this to me?
Like, this is a lie.
This is like everything about this is a disgusting, disturbing lie.
There's like four layers of propaganda in here, and it's such a simple graphic, right?
But in the simplicity lies the trap.
And they know that most Americans over 54% read at or below a sixth grade level.
They cannot read a Harry Potter book.
All right.
And we're going to get into that because he posted another meme.
I'll just probably go to that next.
Of the Democrats, Democrats swimming in sewage at the Washington Monument.
I mean, guys, like, if I don't get to have grandkids because I'm dead, if I don't get to have grandkids because I can't feed my kids, if my kids can't have a job, if my kids can't have a country, and then you do the chuckle buddy thing of, well, this is not the Democrats and the quaps because you could say Democrat, you could say Democrat.
unidentified
Isn't that funny?
rex jones
Like, fuck you, honestly, man.
I'm sorry for cursing.
I got to try not to curse.
Tim's actually right about that because we got to.
Got to work on getting some sponsors for the show that aren't just myself so I can pay some bills over here.
Let me see.
I thought I had it.
I definitely had it.
That's BS.
And they're swimming around in sewage.
Let me find it real quick.
It was on RT.
It was on RT, but Trump posted this Trump Democrats.
Come on.
It shouldn't be this hard to find stuff.
And by the way, the cursing thing is only for Gray Area, by the way.
By the way, I don't care about New American Journal, but Gray Area, the first show, very important evening show.
Not going to curse on Gray Area.
You're going to try to minimize that.
At least it shouldn't be so hard to find things.
You know, when I pull something up, the tab shouldn't spontaneously delete.
That would be nice.
Shout out to Wes in the chat.
I know you're there.
I'm switching for myself right now.
And I do like switching for myself, I like having my computer.
That's funny.
The lasers, bing, bing, gone.
Okay.
All right.
I can't deny humor.
unidentified
All right.
rex jones
That's funny.
unidentified
All right.
rex jones
That's just objectively that that is funny.
Now, the war is not funny.
The genocide is not funny.
The slaughter of innocent children is not funny.
But, you know, it's like Dr. Evil, you know?
It's like $1 billion.
It's something like that.
You know, he kind of is Dr. Evil.
It's kind of the best presentation I can give you.
But I had this.
Okay, here it is.
Here it is.
unidentified
All right.
rex jones
So, this is very sophisticated.
I'm going to break this down to you.
So, this is kind of the web that they bait the boomer into or they trap the boomer into.
And they use two emotions that they kind of bounce them back like a ping pong ball.
So, look at this.
They use self righteous anger and pride like this.
Like, you know, it's not a war, it's an excursion.
Oh, look how much shorter it is, and all these other ones.
It's not even short.
It's in the negative.
It's all good.
It's all okay.
It's all fine.
Because, well, I guess they use ignorance first, right?
They use ignorance.
And then you're programmed by this graphic to accept it all and think that it's all okay.
And then you've got this.
And this is what I meant by the pride and the self righteousness.
Well, at least I'm not a Democrat or a Democrat.
Oh, I even made it better.
I said, I said, Democrats, because like it's a sewage reference.
We just call you, Dummaquette.
You, Dummaquette.
You stupid.
I smile.
I swamp.
I swamp.
I in charge.
Ooh, I got it.
I got it.
We got to get the soundboard cooking because I need Imperial March and I need the liberal, liberal, liberal thing that my dad did.
I'm literally five years old.
I can't read anything more intense than the magic treehouse.
And I do have to say, my propaganda has been working phenomenally.
Let me tell you, every person over the age of 85 is voting for Donald Trump.
Trump, even the Democrats, because they love Israel.
I love Israel.
Now we're all friends.
I really think you're stupid enough to look at an AI image and excuse your gas price being $6.
Six, seven, six, seven.
The kids say six, seven.
They think it's fun.
How about your gas being six, seven?
Like that's what we face.
That's what we deal with here.
And you see how it's very sophisticated.
And look how simple this is.
Big text.
Afghanistan, that's kind of a big word, but they kind of probably know what it means because they saw cable news 20 years ago.
I mean, you don't have anything here that's complicated, right?
The most complicated thing is the Twitter handle in the Afghanistan war.
And then you go over here, dumbocrats love Sue Edge.
So that's like, you know, like four or five different syllables, right?
And I'm bad at that.
People go, Richard with all the syllables.
Okay, if I fucked it up, I fucked it up.
I'm good at English.
All right, I'm a very good reader.
So, Democrats love sewage.
And you see, that's all it takes.
And then this is what you're arguing against when people's brains, when you talk about genocide, when you talk about war crimes, talk about spending, and they go, well, the war is short.
It's not even a war.
Oh, it's actually shorter than any war ever.
And then it's been going on for 47 years.
And if you don't think so, you're a Democrat.
You swim in sewage at Washington Monument.
Excellent job, my minion.
Excellent job.
Remember to buy your Trump phone, Trump cell phone.
I mean, we're going to get into that.
I mean, they just rug pulled people again.
Now you ain't ever getting a phone.
All Amiga ever wanted was a phone.
Can Amiga get a phone?
unidentified
Obama's phone.
rex jones
He gave them phones.
Trump can't give them a phone?
Seriously?
I mean, what would it take to spend, I don't know, $40 to buy, you know, like some sort of decent, half decent Android phone from China and then just send that out to people painted gold?
They can't even do that.
Like, that's how much.
And it's not even like, here's the thing.
If it was like a skewed grift where you still got something and they made a ton of, like, think about it.
If Trump stopped the wars, if Trump made some sort of like positive, like, trade deal, peace deal with like Russia or China, if Trump did something that was really cool, really based, Trump actually did mass deportations, but then, you know, they're grifting, they don't sell you a phone, they do a crypto, shitcoin, rug pull, whatever.
Do you really care?
You know, I'd like to think that I would still care, but honestly, I got back into this because I'm anti murder.
I think killers should be killed.
That's what I believe, right?
And I thought that Trump shared that belief in that I am a total fool.
And that's why I wear my clown costume for you when I do my little dance.
I hope that you enjoy it, by the way.
But let me find this because it's just so crazy.
And I heard about this and I was just like, this is never going to happen.
Obviously, never going to happen.
I got an MTG thing I want to get to as well.
Oh, boy.
unidentified
Breaking.
rex jones
Donald Trump scammed 600,000 people, only 600K.
That's a bad conversion rate, by the way.
What is that?
Like, damn, Trump, you can't do better than like 2%.
That sucks.
I have like five.
Damn.
Donald Trump scammed 600K people.
They order phones and he didn't deliver them.
Nearly 590,000 people got paid $59 million in deposits for the Trump Gold phone.
Yet a year later, not a single device is shipped.
Of course, And the launch date has disappeared from the website.
Well, you know, here's the thing the real phone were all the friends you made along the way talking about Trump, sharing the news about Trump.
That's the real communication.
I don't know.
I'm like AI, kind of like natural intelligence.
I got to formulate a joke.
I got to come up with a good one here.
There's a banger here.
Trump mobiles updated terms reportedly now deposits do not guarantee a phone will ever be produced or be made available for sale.
Let me tell you, people are so stupid, they don't even read the terms and conditions.
I said, you have to pay me $1,000 and I don't even have to give you a phone.
And can you believe it?
unidentified
They believed it.
rex jones
You do get better at the impressions with practice.
When I started off doing Trump, because I wasn't thinking about it, that was a banger.
I came in hot and then it's kind of faded out a little bit.
unidentified
Okay.
rex jones
All right.
I'm freed from the parasitic influence now.
Forgive me.
I took the, yeah, I love President Trump.
Roll tag, President Trump.
My buddy Trump is in a fight.
I'm in a fight too.
unidentified
All right.
rex jones
I'm sorry.
I have fallen my voice.
I apologize.
My dad taught me how to use it.
So, oh man, what am I going to get into here?
unidentified
Okay.
rex jones
So, inflation is now outpacing wage growth.
And you combine that with the consumer sentiment hitting an all time record low.
What are people supposed to do?
Like, I have the best products, the best price.
I'm not even trying to plug.
Like, seriously, I have phenomenal deals on everything because I own the entire process.
And people are barely buying from me.
People that used to buy from me are not.
Buying from me anymore.
And I know why that is.
And I feel like sorry for them because they're also me.
Like we're all in the same boat.
Data Center Carbon Footprint 00:03:05
rex jones
Nobody can afford anything.
I'm going to out myself here.
You guys are going to attack me.
You're going to say, this is why it looks like shit.
This is why the show isn't as good as it needs to be.
And you're right, by the way.
I was eating GMO poison.
All right.
I was trying to get myself some GMO Taco Bell poison.
And I went there and they were like, that'll be $20 for a number six.
And I was like, excuse me.
It's 20 bucks.
I just got the sugar poison.
I got the Blah Blah Blast instead.
But like, it's just, you can't afford fast food.
That shit, I used to go when I was 17 and pick up this girl who was older than me by a little bit.
I think she was like 19.
And we used to go hang out at Taco Bell and eat in the car and like hang out and like smoke weed.
And you could get like 10 items off the dollar menu with 10 bucks.
Like those were the days, man.
Shout out 2019.
I miss her so much, bro.
Like it's crazy.
It's crazy, but that world is gone.
And I think the reason why I'm so nostalgic is that was the time before COVID and all these price increases that happened over COVID.
The key salient point to make here is that none of this was like temporary or transient.
It never goes away, the inflation never goes away.
So when stuff was getting 8% more expensive, Like year over year, that's why everything's 100% more expensive right now, minimum.
And they want to play this game where they will tell you that, you know, it's not actually as bad as you think.
And it's only like a 40% increase and blah, blah, whatever.
They cook the numbers.
unidentified
Okay.
rex jones
A tiny little thing of blueberries is like 10 bucks.
unidentified
Okay.
rex jones
I used to be able to go and buy groceries with $40.
I used to be able to damn near fill up a cart.
This shit's insane.
Milk used to be like two bucks.
Now it's like five.
Used to be cheaper.
Used to be way cheaper.
unidentified
Hold on.
rex jones
I'm going to look this up.
I'll look this up.
What was the price of milk in the.
Not in D. I've been watching too many Russian speakers because I keep using articles when I shouldn't use articles in 2017.
Yeah, $323.
All right.
Yeah, it was $323 a gallon to buy milk.
That's what I remember going to the grocery store once I had a car.
owl killer in virginia
Crazy.
rex jones
This shit's unacceptable.
A doubling in price and everything is unacceptable.
And when people can't even outwork it, and that's what we see here, that's why I have it up on the screen still.
When people can't even outwork the problem, when they have no means to out hustle, and they tell you, what's the American dream, kid?
You got to pull yourself up by your bootstraps.
And everyone that's always chuckled in my face and told me that.
Industry Job Mobility Issues 00:08:30
rex jones
Is someone that's been a part of the power structure.
And they're in the in club, they know somebody that's got money, so they're going to be okay.
And this really pisses me off and makes me sick because we're not those people and we get treated like those people.
But, you know, that's who the lawyers are.
That's who the Sandy Hook families are who got $73 million or $71 million from Remington.
He got $2 million wrong.
We'll sue him for a billion because he lied about us.
Fuck you.
Fuck you, people.
Enjoy your blood money.
You sued the gun company.
I'm sorry to go back to it.
It just pisses me off.
Forgive me.
Because here's the thing I shouldn't be sweating and dying out here right now.
I worked when I was a little kid.
So I wouldn't have to work now.
That's what I thought.
I thought I'd be retired.
And I was like, you know, a little kid when I was working there, when I was like 16, 17, I was like, I'll do this for a few years and then I'll be able to rest.
This is all I've ever done.
Look at this, guys.
They want to tell you this is okay.
They want to tell you to accept this for you and your wallet, you and your family.
I'm kind of tired of that, guys.
Kind of tired of it, kind of done with it.
But let's go to more.
I don't want to roast the quartering.
We go ahead and play this because here's the thing I think he was taken out of context.
I don't want to play this one too because it's short.
We'll find the longer one.
I think me and Tan will probably do that on Thursday or whatever.
But Dan Bilzerian's point, I don't want to do him a disservice.
So, like, I'm going to go ahead and make his point for him.
Is he saying, look, I said that the only war worth fighting would be against Israel because, like, there's no other justification for a war.
Like, the war in Russia, Ukraine is not justified.
These other wars are not justified.
But you have prisoners being raped.
You have children being killed in the tens, if not hundreds of thousands.
You have starvation.
You have food, water, electricity used as weapons.
And This is the thing is like, that's what the Nazis did.
Like, it's Nazi behavior, right?
So, if you're against, and this is the thing, Dan's against Jewish supremacy.
I'm also against Jewish supremacy.
So, I think that was a salient point to make.
But I'll wait to play his full clip for a little while.
I'll wait to do that.
Good grief.
Oh, this is what I was looking for.
So, look at this.
This is another key example because we just talked about the propaganda.
We talked about this.
We talked about this.
This, to tie it all together, is who it's built to work on.
Okay.
Now you can look around the room here, and I zoomed in on faces just to be sure.
Even the cops are senior citizens.
The youngest person here is probably like 70 years old.
And that's the constituency.
Because here's the thing about people like this here's the thing about people like this.
All these people show up to the fucking polls to vote.
Dang it.
I said the curse words.
They show up to the polls to vote, guys.
They show up and represent for the empire.
And that's why, even though they're diminished, even though there's not as many of them as there used to be, even though there's more people that are waking up, they know that if they can funnel enough money into political ads like this, that people like this that were around for the invention of the color TV and the subsequent hypnosis involved, that watch men land on the moon and watch us win all these wars, that's what you're up against, guys.
And so, older population, you're not boomers, you're elders.
If you watch me, you're legends and you're respected.
This is a particular mental illness in the country, you know, just like there are many mental illnesses among my generation.
And we want to heal all these people.
We want to protect all these people, we want to uplift all these people.
But the people have to wake up to the fact that they're being used.
This is like he's like the nanny goat, you know, he's in charge and he's been put in charge by the farmer and he's farming their votes.
That's what this is.
Wake up, people.
Wake up.
I'm going to throw this letter from Massey up.
I'm going to take a little sip of caffeine here.
Today, for the caffeine selection, we have yerba mate mint flavor.
The ingredients an infusion of filtered water, organic yerba mate, organic peppermint leaf, organic spearmint leaf, organic agave syrup, organic lemon juice concentrate, fair trade ingredient.
When I get a voice coach and when I stop smoking cigarettes, which I need to do, You guys are going to really see just how good I can be because that was horrible.
But I can tell I can get better at reading stuff.
So I'll read this to you now.
Dear fellow Kentuckian, our farmers and their farmland are under threat from land developers and data center manufacturers purchasing up our land, spoiling our soil, and draining our water supply.
Appalachia and our rich lands in Kentucky have become a primary target for billion dollar corporations that have been flooding Washington, D.C. with their lobbyists and checkbooks.
Seeking easier and faster ways to pull the land out from under our families who have labored in the fields and fed our generations for nations or fed our nation for generations.
Just like the other month, or just the other month, the special interest groups use their leverage in the House Judiciary Committee to attempt to force a bill through Congress that would have granted liability immunity to data center developers, a special carve out in the law afforded to no other industry.
And I'll just pause there for a second.
Why is that?
Why do they get to skirt regulation?
Why do they get to To cut costs?
Why do they get to hire and fire people the way they do?
Very simple, folks.
It's a military operation.
And that's why all the big tech companies now have an executive in their company that is appointed like a U.S. military officer.
They become one, right?
That's why they get the approval.
I think it's Larry Ellison's facility.
I don't want to misquote it.
It's one of the monsters, okay?
One of the demons, the Salt Lake City facility, five months instead of five years.
Oh, it was Kevin O'Leary.
And Kevin O'Leary, he does the carpetbagger thing.
I'm like, well, you see, I got to get like a Colonel Sanders hat or something.
Well, you see, here's the thing I am an environmental studies major.
I have a degree, I have a bachelor's degree in environmental studies.
I was working on my master's, it didn't work out.
And I say, this data center, this data center over here, I say it's totally fine.
He got the ducks, he got the lizards, everything.
Everything's all fine.
We're just going to use more potable water than 7,000 homes.
We're going to use it every day.
It's going to be subsidized.
You're going to pay for it.
And then you're sitting there as an American citizen.
What does someone from Utah call themselves?
A Utonian?
A Mormon.
What does someone from Utah call themselves?
A Mormon.
But you're sitting there as an American and you're like, This is a Canadian billionaire that's literally coming like the guy that comes in the Lorax to rape the earth.
And we just all put up with it.
There's not public outrage.
I mean, here's the thing there's something powerful about this data center issue that we can build off of because it's environmental.
Okay.
And on the left, they really, really don't like that carbon.
All right.
We kind of like the carbon.
We think we're carbon based life forms.
We think we're the carbon that they want to reduce, all that stuff.
But.
If they care about the water, which we also care about, if they care about the air, which we also care about, how about this?
How about, you know, kind of as the left and the right are coming together on the basis of, oh, I forgot, Tim, I forgot you were coming.
You scared the shit out of me.
Kind of like the left and the right are coming over on the basis of like anti colonialism, anti imperialism, and protecting people's rights, kind of in Ukraine and in Gaza.
We could come together on environmentalism because these data centers literally rape the earth.
There is no reason for us to live in a world where we have to deal with situations like a Canadian billionaire coming and drinking a lake.
You shouldn't be living in that society.
So I'll read the rest of the Massey thing and then I'll be joined by Tim here in a second.
Do I still have the green screen settings on?
I do.
Okay.
I just noticed that.
Thank you because I haven't been reading chat.
Children's Constitution Rights 00:15:15
rex jones
Where do I fix it?
All right, I found it.
How are you doing, Tim?
How's your drive over here?
Why did it revert?
Oh, I still have it enabled.
Delete.
unidentified
Okay.
rex jones
All right.
Now we're back.
Now there's no discoloration.
It was doing a thing where it was making, like, if I turned it.
If I like sharpen the green screen anymore, then it was like making the top of my forehead because I'm bald, it was making it like disappear.
So it's going to be a trial and error thing, but I think that there's a lot that we can do for gray area with like a proper green screen setup.
We need better lighting.
You have to have lighting.
Watch out.
Yeah, you have to have lighting come like more direct from over because it doesn't catch the ends.
But the thing is about the studio, our table is small, right?
But the ceilings in here, it's like 10 feet, right?
So, there's actually a lot of room to make it feel like we're in this expansive, cavernous space.
Check out the shirt.
Just go ahead and stand up and show people the shirt.
Check it out.
Check out all the legendary moments there.
Look at that.
It's now a vintage shirt.
This was on Bigly.
Now it's not on Bigly anymore.
You want it.
You got to get it.
unidentified
You got to get it.
rex jones
You got to get it now.
But you can't.
And Tim's getting plugged in here.
I'm going to read some comments and then we can read this message.
unidentified
But I miss y'all.
I just got back from Disneyland.
Oh.
The Dow.
I know we're at record lows, but sentiment is at record lows.
But Disney Pizza, that $95 pizza was real good, y'all.
rex jones
We're going to be positive people.
We're going to be people that don't talk about the $100 pizza.
We're going to be people that don't talk about the war.
We're going to be people that just talk about how great I am, Donald Trump.
unidentified
Well, Mr. President, You know, I saw your little picture there and it said Iran excursion.
That is what it is.
rex jones
Yes, it is.
unidentified
It's just an excursion.
rex jones
That's right.
Absolutely.
Have you donated to Ed Gowran?
He's running against mean Thomas Massey, bad Thomas Massey, Thomas Massey who didn't do everything I wanted.
What do you think?
unidentified
Crooked Thomas Massey.
rex jones
That's right.
He's all corrupt, even though I have a crypto coin and I didn't send cell phones, I promised to people.
unidentified
I know.
See, I'm your biggest ball washer.
rex jones
Oh, no, no, no, no.
That would be my job for Netanyahu.
You know, and here's the thing he gets jealous, you know, if other people treat me nice.
So I'm not allowed to do that.
You know, I want my own voters to hate me.
That's very important to Trump.
So I don't know.
Welcome to great journal.
How are you doing this morning?
tim tompkins
I'm doing amazing.
Ah, the boys are back.
rex jones
We were doing this on InfoWars last month.
tim tompkins
You guys miss me.
I know there's probably a lot of people that are not tuning into the nightly show.
So you guys haven't seen me in a long time.
rex jones
Well, you guys got to catch both of them.
And like, that's the goal with all of this is like, we have morning show, we have Evening show live, sometimes multiple times a day, like on a Thursday, for example, where you could catch me in the morning.
Yeah, be careful with that one.
We catch me in the morning and then catch both of us in the evening.
And then, of course, on Tuesday, we're going to be doing this in the morning.
And this is going to be, I'm streaming on all the accounts right now.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
rex jones
Oh, you know what?
We're going to take a moment here.
unidentified
What's up?
rex jones
I totally forgot.
Here's the thing, guys.
unidentified
Oh, yeah, yeah.
tim tompkins
You guys got to subscribe.
rex jones
Yeah, we're at 52.
That's not right.
We got like 2,000 people in here.
tim tompkins
How dare you guys not follow the New America Journal?
rex jones
No, Never insult the listeners.
New American Journal.
unidentified
All right.
rex jones
We're live right now.
It shouldn't be upcoming.
It should be live.
I don't know why that's not happening.
But you got to follow New American Journal on Rumble.
Okay.
Because here's the thing.
unidentified
Yes, you do.
rex jones
I'm going to try my best to not curse on gray area shows because we're trying to get some sponsors.
All right.
Got to pay rent.
Got to do other things.
We're going to get the best sponsors as well.
That being said, I kind of want free for all where I can skirt around and play copyright music and like do a bunch of BS.
And Rumble and X are the new 4chan.
So I'm going to be allowed to do that.
But I'm going to have fun on certain days with the New American Journal that, uh, Don't conflict with our sponsors, yes, yes, yes, yes.
So, we're going to work on that as well.
But, what do you think about the new show that's kind of the old show?
We can't say it's the old show because we'll get sued.
tim tompkins
I love it, yeah.
I honestly love what you're doing.
I like the green screen graphic that I was watching you yesterday.
I was like, you know, it's pretty cool.
You know, I see what you're talking about getting the variety, even for gray area.
But, uh, I think you know, I like seeing how you know, people who loved InfoWars so much.
Have all come over and they said, you know what?
This is where I'm going to listen.
rex jones
Well, the thing is, is like, I have a binder in there and it's not that complicated.
I'm kind of pissed because I know there used to be a lot more in it, but you know, it's just all the different backgrounds they have up on the TVs, right?
Because you see my dad's studio, like my dad's old studio, the InfoWars one, like how many TVs they have on those walls?
unidentified
So many.
rex jones
And even the one in the American Journal or not the American Journal studio, the War Room studio, they have a lot of TVs on the wall.
And the thing is, is like, Tim Heidecker, I don't know how I was able to make a green screen look better than him.
unidentified
Right.
rex jones
Like, and that's because, like, when I tried to do the green screen, I didn't have it move.
I had to be a static background.
Right.
Because to truly do like the moving wave patterns and the really intricate graphics, you have to have like the LED panel behind you or the TV behind you.
But they didn't even figure that out.
So it's been cool to kind of go back to the primitive days, the original days of InfoWars, where it was just that static image.
And I think people recognize that.
Have you been watching?
Have you seen any of the intro to the show?
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
tim tompkins
I love that too.
rex jones
Did you enjoy that?
tim tompkins
I do.
rex jones
What did you think about my dad like that?
tim tompkins
Yeah.
So it's like, It kind of like reminds me of its own little flavor.
You're like doing an homage, but at the same time, you've kind of blended and made this your own thing, which is what I appreciate the most.
Yeah, this guy works hard, guys.
rex jones
Yeah, we're going to be working smarter, not harder, very soon.
Things are going to get a lot better.
The thing is, like, hand me that remote.
Yeah, I got you.
unidentified
No, the other one.
rex jones
Oh, for the light.
I got you.
The thing about this is, like, I want to do a lot more man on the street stuff.
I want to do a lot more citizen journalism.
I want to go to a lot more places and do a lot more things.
And I'm going to be reducing a lot of my overhead that's been kind of preventing that.
So I'm just going to be downsizing a little bit, and that's okay.
We're going to get back to bigger and better later, but I don't want my business to become the Iran war for me.
unidentified
Really, really.
rex jones
So you know what?
If I'm telling Trump he needs to stop, I need to stop.
So it's time to be logically consistent and to figure these things out.
But what's on your mind today with like politics, news, world?
What do you have?
tim tompkins
Yeah, I saw this Trump fun thing.
We can talk about this a little bit.
rex jones
We can do a little, I don't want to rehash, but like, isn't this crazy?
tim tompkins
Yeah.
Gold plated.
rex jones
No one ever thought they were getting this.
tim tompkins
Here's the best part about this phone.
Probably like six months from now, that phone's going to stop working.
Like, he never gives like the high quality stuff.
Like, I looked at his Trump watches.
They were like, basically, you could get that stuff off of like Timu, you know?
And have you ever seen a Trump watch?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim tompkins
And it's like 500 bucks for a Trump watch.
rex jones
Have you seen the sneakers?
tim tompkins
I have not seen the sneakers.
rex jones
Oh, you don't know about this?
Do you know about this?
unidentified
No.
rex jones
Are you aware?
tim tompkins
I'm not a real MIGA.
rex jones
Oh, dude.
I guess not.
I guess not, Trump.
I mean, think about the amount of money it's going to be worth, though, right?
Because buying these is actually a good long term investment.
Where is it?
unidentified
Ooh.
rex jones
Here, give me one second.
tim tompkins
Is it kind of like a Jordan's?
rex jones
Yeah, exactly.
tim tompkins
These are the real Air Force ones.
rex jones
Yeah.
tim tompkins
Oh, my.
rex jones
Yeah.
Look at that.
tim tompkins
This is corny.
unidentified
What?
rex jones
Corn ball.
tim tompkins
Hey, if I ever catch anybody with these shoes on, crazy.
rex jones
Corn Pop was the designer at Circle.
tim tompkins
What are those?
rex jones
Well, dude, that's the real mega uniform.
You got to wear those to be cool.
You got to wear those to support Trump.
I mean, I just, anybody in their right mind that thinks that that's logical or rational.
And I just want to do a quick rehash because now I know you're watching the show.
So, like, this is very clearly meant to appeal to senior citizens, right?
unidentified
Yeah.
rex jones
The big text and all of it.
Don't you also see that?
tim tompkins
Yeah.
The thing I found so ironic about this is like he calls it an excursion.
unidentified
Yeah.
rex jones
We've also been at work for seven years.
tim tompkins
Oh, man.
Yeah.
Honestly, the biggest thing that's on my mind today, guys, it really is like I was joking around the consumer sentiment, but like I actually am, that's all that's been on my mind, to be honest.
unidentified
Yeah.
Yeah.
rex jones
And I showed the, you want to talk about that?
Cause I showed.
tim tompkins
Yeah.
I mean, look, I went to Target the other day.
There's this lady in front of me.
unidentified
Right.
tim tompkins
And she's probably got like a handful of items, not that much.
unidentified
Right.
tim tompkins
She starts ringing, ringing, ringing.
Cash register lady was like, oh, that'll be 95 bucks.
You're like, oh.
rex jones
Oh, yeah, I don't have that.
That's what you said.
tim tompkins
No, she said she's like, I only came in for a few items.
So when I saw she only had that much, I was like, oh, I'm cooked because I had like maybe a few more items than her.
Mine came out to be like $110.
And I was like, all right, I'm done.
I cannot take this anymore.
And I'm like, the average person that's just going around.
Here's the thing our economy is a consumer economy, right?
It only works because of the fact that Americans are buying constantly.
Okay.
We aren't a net exporter.
We are a net importer.
So if we're not buying things, this becomes like a nice downward spiral because the companies are like, oh, we're not making any money.
So we have to cut head.
But if we cut head and we don't have any people working and we have a recession, then it just creates that downward spiral.
rex jones
The thing is, the thing that's really crazy to me is like, I think that there is enough money.
Like, of course, there is enough money to make, like, to do the retail or to do whatever.
It's literally all profit mode.
Like with the airlines, for example, like what happened with Boeing?
They fired all the engineers and the people that used to run it and they replaced them with lawyers like 20 years ago.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim tompkins
And they closed it out.
And that caused the problem.
I actually, because I was in the aerospace industry, I talked about it.
I worked with most of the guys that also came from what used to be Boeing, but they turned it into spirit where like the fuselages were coming from.
And also in my adjacent kind of like sister company to that, quality is not a thing anymore, guys.
They did fire a ton of quality people.
rex jones
It's very okay.
tim tompkins
Not to throw my previous company under the bus, but layoffs have been universal.
It's not just the layoffs.
Do you know what the quality was like at my facility?
My boss didn't even fly on commercial planes anymore.
unidentified
Really?
tim tompkins
And that was because he knew what was coming out of our shop.
rex jones
I was looking at some of the rivet work on the wing and I was like, okay.
Well, I guess they figured it out at the end.
tim tompkins
Well, the thing is, is like these machines are very highly complex.
And if you're skipping steps, which people get into a habitual pattern, this is like the day in the life of a guy who's working on the line.
If you've been doing the same job, let's say for five years or so, you're just in a completely cyclical motion where you're just like on autopilot.
Okay.
Normally, you're supposed to be following an SOP or a manual where you're doing every single thing according to that manual.
And obviously, we all know that that's supposed to be like we miss things, right?
So that's why quality comes into play.
But if you don't have quality that's qualified for quality, then you're relying on the actual person who's building the machine.
So, not to get off the rails, I know we went into a whole segment.
rex jones
Well, that's a good one.
It just shows like, you know, people, and I always say this people are just people.
And we have these very complicated systems that, like, we all stand on the shoulders of giants.
Like, everyone that's working on planes now, they do that because some guys in North Carolina or Ohio, excuse me, from Ohio decided they could make a plane, right?
So, when that knowledge gets lost or just like gets ignored and they're like, well, we can save more money doing XYZ and they phase out the people, I think that's the problem we're dealing with.
Government, too.
tim tompkins
Yes.
Let me bring this full circle for you because you are making a good point here.
Also, another problem that's going on in the industry and not just the aerospace industry and all the industries and why you're seeing quality go down.
Across all the sectors for specific things is because of the fact that there has been a brain drain of people who used to be.
It used to be that you go to a company, you work there for a very long time, and you typically retire from that place.
We're getting away from that now.
Now, the schedule is you go into a company, it's more profitable for you to switch jobs every two to three years.
unidentified
Right.
tim tompkins
Because they're giving you a 2% raise.
Like, who wants a 2% raise to keep up on inflation?
rex jones
Your initial salary.
tim tompkins
Right.
So, but the problem is if you have a churnout.
Constantly of people who are supposed to be experts, you lose all the knowledge because not everything is documented.
So it used to be better because people used to stay within the company for a very long time and you used to be able to retain.
And it used to be the transfer of knowledge was a lot better.
rex jones
Nobody even knows the concept of like a gold watch anymore.
You know, like you work for the company, they give you the watch, they give you the pension or whatever.
That's not the goal.
The goal is like get the Bugatti at any cost.
I must get the supercar.
tim tompkins
Oh, yeah.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim tompkins
But I'm just, this is the last point I'll make.
I'm working at a company right now where this is happening in real time.
I have now become one of the senior engineers and I've only been there for about a couple of years.
unidentified
Wow.
Right.
tim tompkins
We had people leave that had been there for 10 years, 15 years.
Guys who are like older, they're like forcing their own retirement because of what's happening in the economy and the pressure that's being put down on the rest of the people who are still trying to work.
It is a crap show.
rex jones
Well, you notice everything's lower quality and they want you to get lower.
Quality for a higher price, and they want you to say that it's still good.
And in fact, like, here's the thing, and this is what I said like, with the Trump phone thing earlier, it would be nothing.
I said $40 probably like $2 to get like Android cell phones in bulk, paint them gold, and send them to people.
It would be the cheapest thing.
It would probably cost you.
tim tompkins
Well, they're cutting corners on everything because they want to maximize profitability because these companies went public and they have to appeal to the shareholder.
You know, Snapples, they used to be like that metal container, the glass container used to have some real weight to them, and now it's a Now it's this plastic squishy thing.
Yeah.
I mean, look, that's what's happening in the industry.
And it is just sad because, you know, I'm watching the companies.
I've gone from several different companies.
And the only reason why I've left the company is because of the fact that there's no upward mobility or the ability to compensate you for what's happening in inflation.
China Missile Preparation 00:03:37
tim tompkins
And that's across the board.
rex jones
And I think that's what's forming the new political movement.
I want to read this statement from MTG.
This is reposted by Joe Kent.
There is a new lane that is forming, made up of people from the right and the left that are fed up with both parties because both parties have failed the average American.
The new center shares a common America First perspective and arguably could be bigger than both parties.
Americans who no longer want to fund foreign wars, want the hard earned dollars they work for to comfortably afford a good life, and want corrupt elites like the Epstein class held accountable.
These are the basic common ground issues that bring independent minded, common sense Americans together.
And it's the most refreshing thing happening, mostly among the younger generations, to organically be happening in America in a very long time after so many years of toxic political divide.
We need to lean into this.
United we stand, divided we fall.
And let me show you what that is a callback to.
tim tompkins
It is the movement.
rex jones
Yeah, but let me show you some political art.
And this comes from Benjamin Franklin.
unidentified
Oh.
rex jones
So, like, this is the original statement about the colonies, right?
unidentified
Yep.
rex jones
They got to join together or they're going to die separately.
So, this is a very old idea.
And that's why we always say the answer to 1984 is 1776.
And we don't have to invent some radical new political system to figure this out or to make it all work.
We have the building blocks to fix this already.
And it was very cool.
It's been very cool.
We've done it a couple of times to talk to the LaRouche people and to talk to Jose and to talk to Dennis and talk to everyone else that was on the stream.
unidentified
Yeah.
rex jones
But particularly them, because he makes the point, you know, if everyone knew the preamble of the Constitution, do you think we'd live in a world like this?
I don't think so.
tim tompkins
Yeah.
Okay.
So this is the point that I was making yesterday.
I think, yes.
But also, again, we've gotten to a point where we have TikTok brain to a certain extent, right?
Like, You talk about the reading level.
You also need to talk about the intent, the attention span level because of the fact that the Constitution for kids, someone had to have made that.
rex jones
We got to find that.
We got to find like a children's Constitution.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim tompkins
I mean, look, if you read the Constitution, it's like a lot of jargon that people don't quite understand.
And it's they wrote very eloquently.
Like people don't even learn how to do cursive anymore, by the way.
unidentified
Right.
rex jones
Can you write cursive?
tim tompkins
Yeah.
unidentified
I can write.
Yeah.
rex jones
I can write cursive.
tim tompkins
I was part, I feel like we were part of the last wave of elementary school.
Hey, for anybody in the chat, are your kids.
Uh, being taught cursive anymore, or is there any teachers in the chat?
rex jones
Yeah, that the real test do you know how to write a G?
Do you know how to write a G?
Yes, most people don't.
So, wow, yeah, cursive.
I hadn't even thought about that.
Now, that's a foreign concept.
It'll just be iPad, you won't even like they'll hold a pen like this.
tim tompkins
Yeah, the last thing I'll say on that is just like, you know, you have to make it easy.
This is the point I was making last night you have to make it easy for people to understand their rights and what they can do.
They actually rely on complexity in the system, right?
Like, if you want to file a complaint for something or you want to make a change happen, it's probably, it's normally a long, extensive process that people aren't willing to do.
unidentified
Right.
Right.
tim tompkins
Like, we're used to having Amazon delivery next day.
People are not going to have the patience to go through this web portal and they make these instructions complicated.
So, you kind of have to have an overhauling of the system so people know their rights, but also know how to easily act on them at the same time.
unidentified
Absolutely.
rex jones
That's the thing is like a court process will take years, you know, and people are like, what?
Public School Education Crisis 00:14:49
unidentified
Yeah.
rex jones
And that's where the lawyer gets you is because the lawyer is someone that's prepared to talk for years, prepared to argue for years.
And they know the average citizen isn't willing to do that.
And they kind of beat you into submission with it.
So, I want to go ahead and show this because this is why the war has been like this is why the war has been on pause, you know, or kind of quieted down a little bit.
Trump is going to China and he's bringing all the top money people with him.
unidentified
All right.
rex jones
And this is just some of them Elon Musk, Tim Cook, Larry Fink, the Boeing CEO, Robert Kelly.
Let's go ahead and show the whole list here.
Apple, the Avengers.
The Legion of Doom.
The Legion of Doom.
Hold on, hold on.
Hold on, I'm sorry.
Can we talk for a second?
unidentified
Yeah.
rex jones
Give me a second.
tim tompkins
Yeah, I mean, look, I see, I see, you know, Elon Musk and Tim Cook there.
Well, I don't understand why they're putting Tim Cook there because he's been replaced by the new CEO.
Maybe the new CEO is going to be running things.
But look, this whole thing going to China, it can be nothing burger or there's some real progression here.
rex jones
Yeah.
So I actually obtained footage of the summit.
I went forward in the future.
Actually, no, this is the meeting they had before they decided to go to China.
I want to play this for people.
unidentified
Deep within a bleak and dismal swamp, hidden beneath its murky waters, lies the headquarters of the most sinister villains of all time.
The Legion of Doom.
The meeting will come to order.
The Legion of Doom is now in session.
It is the purpose of the Legion to align our infamous forces against the powers of good and defeat them.
Leaving us the rulers of the world to do this, we have got minions, we shall take the world.
rex jones
That's literally what's going on.
So, I just thought that was funny.
I just thought that was funny because, like, these people this is who represents America.
Like, this is our political delegation that we send over there.
tim tompkins
We send people with the money because that's who really runs the hey billionaires are a perfect representation of you and I, Rex.
Stop being racist.
rex jones
I am being racist.
I apologize.
tim tompkins
Okay, so let's see who's on this list Goldman Sachs.
unidentified
Wow.
Yeah.
rex jones
Goldman Sachs, Illumina, MasterCard, Meta, Micron, Qualcomm, quantum computing stuff, Visa, Tesla, aerospace.
And I don't understand, like, what's the sell to Xi?
Like, they're like, please give us rare earth minerals so we continue to make our products so that we can go to war with you.
What's going on?
tim tompkins
Here's the thing.
rex jones
What do you think?
tim tompkins
I think we're realizing that China's starting to win some of this race because it is an invisible race right now.
And they are competing.
In markets and surpassing us.
And so, you know, we're like, okay, well, maybe if you pump the brakes just a little bit so that we can keep, you know, advancing and catching up, and maybe we can meet somewhere in the middle.
I think this is also like a play, like you said, for the minerals, but also a lot of other things that we don't have.
I mean, renewable energy, too.
That's a very big thing.
And they're making a ton of money.
They figured out solar.
They're actually replacing most of their oil with the, um, With this renewable energy.
rex jones
That's not true.
You can look up their giant, I think it's the Gobi Desert fields and everything that they have set up.
unidentified
Yes.
tim tompkins
And they're the biggest exporter of renewable energy.
So, I mean, China's been silently winning this war.
rex jones
They're already, I would say, the dominant world power.
What the United States still has control of is the global financial system because of the dollar, right?
So, I was watching Lawrence Wilkerson.
Actually, no, it was Richard Wolf.
I was watching him talk about this.
You know, in like the early 2000s or late 90s, all the biggest banks were in the West.
Right.
And that's where the financial power was.
Now, the biggest, the four biggest banks are all Chinese.
tim tompkins
That's also the same with aerospace, right?
rex jones
Really?
tim tompkins
It used to be that, I'm sorry, airlines, like airlines, United States used to dominate airlines.
Now it's kind of exported across the rest of the world, where I think we're not even in the top five for airlines.
rex jones
So the country that invented the plane.
Think about that.
And that's why it's so embarrassing to be behind like the modern context.
People often say, like, Well, China's 4,000 years old.
America's 250.
China's going to win, whatever.
Did they invent the car?
Did they invent the nuke?
Did they invent the internet?
Did they invent the plane?
No, they didn't.
And we did that.
tim tompkins
Yeah, we did that.
And here's the best part if you're talking about China here, we did China a favor by going to war because everybody wants to now not be reliant on oil because of the shocks to their country.
So, what are they going to do?
Invest in renewable energy that doesn't rely on the straight for their resources.
So, that money goes directly to China.
And it means, oh, our GDP is going to continue to increase.
rex jones
And that's also the direct defeat of the dollar because if they're not buying as much oil, then they're not using as much US currency.
tim tompkins
And the petrodollar, which is actually the main vehicle now, because we're no longer.
rex jones
It's like we're dead.
tim tompkins
We're no longer on the gold standard, and you can't do anything about a fiat currency.
The petrodollar is truly the last frontier when it comes down to the protection of the dollar, in my opinion.
rex jones
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
What else is on your mind?
I got some more stuff to find, too.
tim tompkins
I mean, I've got a video that talks about the.
rex jones
Put it in the drive.
tim tompkins
I sent it to you on X.
It talks about is the United States military on a decline?
Is it losing its edge?
rex jones
Yeah, that's a YouTube video.
simon whistler
We'll start with the quote The U.S. military always.
rex jones
He's always immediate.
Yeah, I subscribe to him now.
tim tompkins
Yeah, he does excellent videos.
So we'll watch a little bit.
You know, you guys might.
unidentified
We'll play it.
We'll play it.
tim tompkins
All right, let's go ahead and play it.
simon whistler
We'll start with the quote The U.S. military always losing its edge.
After Iran, everyone knows it.
That was the explosive headline of a recent opinion piece published by the New York Times editorial board, making precisely the sort of allegation that nobody in the U.S. government wants to hear.
In its piece, the board argues that because the U.S. spends around a trillion dollars a year on its military, more than a hundred times as much as Iran, and has access to advanced weapons technologies that Iranian generals can only dream about, Washington should have had an overwhelming victory in the war.
During the first week of the war, the U.S. seemed on track to do exactly that.
America and Israel were able to eliminate much of Iran's senior leadership and a lot of its military infrastructure.
And it's not just the military.
The combined forces have also wreaked havoc on Iran's economy, targeting fuel storage centers, steel plants, and pharmaceutical facilities alike.
Yet Iran has managed to extract its pound of flesh.
It has attacked American allies, including the UAE, in the middle of a ceasefire.
It has denied the whole world the ability to use the Strait of Hormuz and has threatened to put tolls on one of the most critical waterways in the world.
Perhaps most importantly, Iran was able to attack multiple American bases across the Middle East.
An analysis of satellite imagery by the Washington Post revealed that since the war began, Iranian airstrikes have damaged or destroyed at least 228 structures or pieces of equipment in the region, including fuel depots, aircraft, and key radar, communications, and air defense equipment.
The destruction is far greater than anything Washington had publicly admitted to or anything that has previously been reported.
This, and the fact that Iran has essentially forced the US into a position where it has to negotiate in order to achieve its war objectives, has led a lot of people, not just the New York Times editorial board, to question whether the US has lost its edge.
So, is it true?
Is the American military unprepared for modern war?
Well, the American military is without a doubt.
rex jones
Well, I just want to pause it for a second because I think I know some of what he's going to get into here.
And, like, the thing is, these other nations, like Russia or China, they have been preparing for like a 21st century conflict.
tim tompkins
And especially China.
rex jones
Yeah.
And we're kind of like, we're like France in World War II.
We have like the mounted, you know, mounted riders and stuff still, and the tanks are coming.
Now, that's kind of like the example I'd give.
tim tompkins
And no.
So we still, because of our spending on the military, have just been investing in these.
Crazy technologies.
But the problem is they're so expensive.
rex jones
That's the thing.
They're prohibitively expensive.
unidentified
Right.
tim tompkins
So, like, if you're talking about what China has been focusing on, is like, okay, well, let's create drone swarms because you can't do anything about that.
I can take a hundred drones and probably sink your multi billion dollar ship.
unidentified
Right.
tim tompkins
And so, it really doesn't matter how advanced that thing is if something small can take it out.
rex jones
It really is amazing.
We haven't had a world war yet, you know, at least not like an active one where this is declared.
new groyper in south
I think we're in one.
tim tompkins
If you look at history, just like in World War II leading up to it, there was always these small conflicts that kept breaking out among smaller countries or really bigger countries where not everybody was involved.
rex jones
Well, look at Japan and China.
You know, like that's happening.
All other stuff is happening.
tim tompkins
So that's kind of like you see some of the breadcrumbs of previous.
It's like always years worth of these like conflicts, smaller conflicts that turn into this one larger one.
rex jones
I think the Chinese beat like two thirds of like the Japanese military.
tim tompkins
Uh, not at the beginning, but at the end, they're talking about during the course.
Well, we we helped them towards the end, uh, as well.
rex jones
Didn't they push them out of like Manchuria?
tim tompkins
Yeah, but like Japan, before you know the whole United States got involved, they were dominating China because China didn't really have a military like that, sure.
So that's why you had like the rape of Nanking, all of those different things happen, and that was silently happening on that region of the world before you know the real influx of World War II.
rex jones
We funded the nationalist Chiang Kai shek, who then left and founded.
You know, what we now know as Taiwan or the Republic of China.
And then the Russians backed Mao and gave him military means, and he took mainland China.
And the United States recognized Taiwan as a part of mainland China starting in 1971.
We continue to give them military aid.
It's this weird thing, right?
Where it's like, we're not at war.
We've been at war for 47 years.
We're not for it.
We recognize it's an excursion.
Exactly.
tim tompkins
It's a vacation.
rex jones
That's a trip.
tim tompkins
It's a trip.
rex jones
But I'll play the video.
Good points.
simon whistler
The single most powerful military on the planet.
Much of that comes from spending BAST sums on advanced systems, jets, missiles, submarines, and other technologies that allow Washington to project its power across much of the world in just seconds.
Fifth generation planes like the F-22 Raptor and the F-35 Lightning or America's B-2 Spirit stealth bomber are so advanced that very few countries have anything that can come close to equaling them.
The nuclear-powered Virginia-class submarines are extremely stealthy, carrying out highly sensitive intelligence missions while equipped with Tomahawk cruise missiles.
And speaking of missiles, America boasts one of the most extensive missile arsenals on the planet, ranging from the aforementioned Tomahawk, a long-range or weather subsonic cruise missile used for precision strikes against high-value targets, to the Dark Eagle, a newly developed long-range hypersonic weapon.
We're listing all of these not only because our Warfronts team are quite openly a bunch of nerds, but to point out just how much advanced firepower the U.S. has at its disposal.
But even though all of these are extremely impressive, a lot of experts believe They are better suited for yesterday's battlefield than today's.
Today's battlefield is the domain of drones, a shift that began following Russia's war against Ukraine.
When Russia launched its full scale invasion in February 2022, the expectation among most observers was that Ukraine's air defenses would be gone within days.
Russia had one of the largest air forces on the planet, and the assumption was that it would simply grind down everything in its path.
But this didn't happen.
Ukrainian defenders.
tim tompkins
Yeah, so I mean, yeah, no, I was just saying, like, I haven't even really watched this video.
Like, Asymmetric warfare.
That's what I was talking about earlier.
Like, I mean, what happened was Ukraine and Russia became kind of the first time that we could see what modern warfare looked like.
It was really a testing ground, if you think about it.
That's why we sent so much money and military assets out there because they're like, well, there's no better time to test that billion dollar missile that's just been collecting dust because we had no real reason.
rex jones
We got to use it.
We got to find a reason to order more.
Yeah, it's crazy.
That's like, that's like someone, there's so many products.
Like, look, we want you to use these, so you have to order more.
Like, well, isn't using them the worst case scenario?
tim tompkins
Of course not.
Yeah.
Double tapping schools is for the bad guys.
Yes, it's for the bad guys, right?
rex jones
That's always the example.
That's the thing is, like, how was the United States military supposed to do missile defense for itself, for Israel, for other allied nations when the CNN figure, which I think is not true, I think it's much more.
We've used half of all our interceptors that exist, and it takes a long time for those to be replenished, or yes, yeah, they make hundreds of those a year, not thousands.
So, like, that's what you're talking about.
And when they're Boom, boom, boom, boom, all day, all night, all the time in the sky.
It was so bad that we pulled the missiles from South Korea, from Japan.
We said, Hey, we gave you these to defend yourselves.
We really need them over here because we don't have enough of them.
tim tompkins
Japan was not happy about that, and South Korea.
rex jones
But then the Iranians, they can spend 15 grand and they can build a Shaheed and they can float into a Dubai tower and they can destroy an economy.
So, like, who has more power?
Sure, the other side has more firepower, more resources.
tim tompkins
And here's like the The best and worst part.
China is almost self sufficient.
rex jones
Right.
tim tompkins
It produces almost everything that you would need in order to build massive factories.
rex jones
Their only issues, and they got Russia right there.
unidentified
Right.
tim tompkins
They've got Russia right there, but they have the manufacturing power.
They figured out how to automate a lot of things, but also use the billion people that they have there to actually run these factories.
Like you're talking about, like, yeah, the raw natural resources, all of that, right?
Natural Supplement Ingredients 00:07:14
rex jones
And it's also the skilled work.
Base, right?
Like the workforce, I should say.
tim tompkins
Yeah, they're not stupid.
They're very smart.
rex jones
Yeah, no, indeed.
And you got people that, like, my goal as a citizen of China, to be a Chinese citizen, is to make China better.
How often do Americans?
tim tompkins
Well, they've got an extreme sense of nationalism over there.
unidentified
Sure.
Right?
tim tompkins
They actually care about their country.
And the difference between how people grow up in Asia versus in America is kind of black and white.
If you work now, yeah, you study now.
No, they do.
Like, I have a ton of Asian friends, I believe in this.
I don't, they're normally not like doing after school programs.
No, you're going home and you're studying for like the next five hours so that you can get the best grades possible.
Anything less than a 95 is shame on the family.
rex jones
They do it in sports too, just like the white collar ones, right?
You know, I've seen this, and here, you know, you don't want to lose a tennis match, you get punished for that.
tim tompkins
And here, you know, I've seen some of my people growing up, and I've seen people growing up, and their parents are like, Well, Jimmy, it's okay if you don't want to go and what matters, you believe you could do anything if you try.
Yeah, if you want to go play esports all day, you can go do that, Jimmy.
unidentified
You want that art history degree, here you go, Jimmy.
tim tompkins
And so I have literally seen that.
So, yeah, I mean, you're literally developing your brain power right there as it stands to be able to compete in any market.
And that's a scary thing, guys.
rex jones
That's a good point.
And that's to just go to a point of like how screwed up our public education system is.
unidentified
It's cooked.
rex jones
Well, like when my granddad went to school, they learned how to weld, they learned how to shoot, they learned carpentry, they learned like agriculture, like civics, just so many different things.
And think about how fun school could actually be if it actually profited you to go there.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim tompkins
Here's the thing.
Unless you're like in a state like Massachusetts, which I think is like number one.
One or two or three in education.
And you're in like kind of one of these affluent towns, which they have public school.
A lot of these regions, their public schools are dookie, right?
The only reason why I went to private school as a kid, because of the fact that the schools were so bad.
And I know some people are like, oh, how'd you afford public school?
unidentified
And you were so broke.
tim tompkins
They gave me, because I was black, like this massive scholarship because they realized, like, we need to try to at least give some people.
So it was almost like an affirmative action.
It was available, right?
They were covering like 90 plus percent of the tuition cost because otherwise it's like $30,000 a year.
To go to the school.
rex jones
Right.
Well, here, you know, like, like, AISD is really bad.
Like, the students, they just leave and they go down to Lady Bird Lake and they like smoke weed and fight each other.
But Westlake is like that.
Like, Westlake, they have two Super Bowl quarterbacks.
That's how much money they put in their athletic team.
Like, that is like the image in your mind of like, you know, what like a white, like all American type high school would be.
Like, they have that there.
But you see the funding because there are other schools like Lake Travis, like AISD that I talked about that are shitholes.
unidentified
Right.
Right.
rex jones
And it's about the money.
tim tompkins
And here's the thing.
You can't go to like a random public school that's outside of like your jurisdiction.
So, unless you can afford that two to $3 million house, there's no shot that your kid's going to be able to go to that good public school.
unidentified
Right.
tim tompkins
So, it is an inefficient system.
And, you know, I'm not going to lie.
Like, I'm seeing some of the people that are coming out being teachers now.
And I remember my teacher was like 25 years old.
If I want a Gen Z 25, I mean, it might even be younger than that.
If I want a Gen Z 25 year old teaching my kid now, I don't know about that.
unidentified
Hold on, hold on.
I got an idea.
Give me a second.
tim tompkins
I don't know about that.
We got some real, like, these are OnlyFans girls sometimes teaching your kids, guys.
You want an OF girl teaching your little son Timmy?
Now, not all of them are that way.
unidentified
Here's the thing.
rex jones
You don't want to discount anybody's career.
tim tompkins
Of course not.
rex jones
You want to avoid some hands on education that maybe shouldn't happen.
Here's the thing.
I'm going to teach you about, like, you want to learn about biology?
I'm going to teach you about Riz.
I sent you the assignment over on your iPad, dude.
You have to, like, do it like two months or something.
Okay.
I don't want to fail you.
I don't want to be a dick.
unidentified
Okay.
rex jones
No one's trying to be a dick here, bro.
But you have to learn the alphabet.
You're in eighth grade.
unidentified
That's okay.
tim tompkins
So here's today's class on how to mug.
rex jones
You got to outmug everybody.
It turns into the Trump.
I got to get off.
Get off my head.
unidentified
The.
tim tompkins
Today's class is on look maxing.
rex jones
Exactly.
Well, I mean, and that's the thing, though, is like you see this, and like this is like what kids say their number one aspiration is just to be a streamer.
They don't want to be a doctor, lawyer, firefighter, educator.
Like they don't, it's not about that.
tim tompkins
It's not about that.
But also, like, it's not really appealing to be a teacher when you look at the wage to be a teacher and all of the stuff that you have to put up with.
The only teachers who like it's like the good ROI is if you're in that rich town, because some of them are actually making six figures.
But, like a regular public school that doesn't have a ton of funding is probably making like 40 to 50K and they're dealing with the same bullcrap.
rex jones
Look at what we're talking about here talking about humans, how inefficient they are, the problems they cause, how expensive they are.
Why don't you let the robot teach your kid?
unidentified
What?
rex jones
Grok, you know, Professor Grok will teach your child.
tim tompkins
Good morning, kids.
rex jones
I'll teach your child about why he should buy a Tesla when he turns 16.
unidentified
Yeah.
rex jones
Like, imagine getting ads at school, you know, like brought to you by this algebra equation is brought to you by Carl Jr.
tim tompkins
Yeah, we probably get there at that at some point.
But just to bring it full circle, the whole reason why we're talking about that is because when you think about China versus America and you think about the technological advancements, right, it really does come down to how the younger generation is being brought up to actually fill in the workforce that's going to accomplish these tasks and be the brains behind those operations.
So I'm very curious what happens after the millennials start getting to the older point and you've got like we're kind of on the older point.
What are the younger kids who are going to create the next version of America?
What is it going to be?
rex jones
We're the early part of Gen Z. Think about like the later part of Gen Z. Six, seven, six, seven.
You're 1998, right?
tim tompkins
Yeah, I'm 98.
rex jones
Yeah, so it's 97 is the cutoff.
So you're not a millennial.
tim tompkins
I'm not.
unidentified
I'm Gen Z.
rex jones
And then I'm 2002.
unidentified
All right.
rex jones
You think about that, dude.
Imagine somebody born in like 2010 teaching your children, literally doing Fortnite dances.
This is how I teach, keep the students engaged.
You're like, well, I guess it works, but I would not like.
To live in that society.
Someone said, I think it was somebody up here, they said that in Alabama it's $37 or $36K.
I'd be a teacher.
Algorithm Cleanse Addiction 00:07:54
rex jones
Oh, so.
tim tompkins
How do you even live?
Because I've, I know Alabama's, it's not like you're, you're at like, you know, $2 a gallon for, for gas.
Your, your prices are the same.
Like these companies charge the same for Chipotle, whether you're in Alabama or whether you're here in Austin, Texas.
It might be a dollar difference, but how do you survive on $37?
I am sorry.
rex jones
You don't.
tim tompkins
$37K.
rex jones
I think we're going to get into that because in the third hour, Here in like 20, 30 minutes, we're going to take calls from you guys.
We want to talk about affordability.
We want to hear from you the specific difficulties that you're encountering.
What do you want to hear?
tim tompkins
I just want to, with the market sentiment being at record lows, I want to hear anecdotal stories and understand what it is that you guys are dealing with, right?
You know, we can sit here and grope all day, but, you know, gripe all day about what we're struggling with.
But every single person that's watching this show has their own struggle.
So we'd be curious to hear, like, what's going on?
What do you remember from the good old days?
What is it like for you now?
rex jones
I want to hear about people that are in kind of like specialized careers and like the waste, fraud, and abuse that they've seen build up.
I want to see what that's like.
I think that's also a good prompt.
So, just really want to keep it on the economy today because we know that's what everyone's thinking about.
I mean, I was looking at the chat and we're talking about like China and weapons and stuff.
People talk about gas, you know, because that's what affects people.
But before we get into all that, we'll go back to the video a little bit too.
I want to tell you guys about the products that support the show.
As you guys know, I've really been trying to do my best job plugging because you guys need to know about these things.
We've got some amazing formulas on goprimalcore.com.
If you want to support the Great Area Project, the Great Area Network, what we do on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday, Tuesday on the morning, and then Sunday and Thursday in the evening, go to goprimalcore.com and look up these ingredients in PubMed, look up these ingredients in Google Scholar, look up these ingredients using whatever AI engine you want to, uncensored AI, whatever, ChatGPT, whatever, how it works, everything you got here together.
Let me show you.
These are all the ideal minerals that you're not getting.
That you need in the ideal forms and ratios.
You got zinc picolinate, boron citrate, selenium methathionine, magnesium glycinate, copper, and vitamin D3.
Now, you might ask, I've heard a lot of those things before.
What's up with the boron and what's up with the copper?
So, what you've got to understand about the boron, a lot of people don't know this, it's pretty much the safest, best way to raise testosterone and free testosterone just acutely and chronically.
You should have enough of it in your diet already.
Also contributes to very strong bones, right?
So, a lot of these formulas, especially this is a unisex thing, this is great for both men and women.
And this goes to that point.
A lot of these formulas, they try to sell you for like male vitality or whatever.
And a lot of the ingredients are good and whatnot, but they're like luteinizing hormone mimetics, right?
Like Tonkat Ali is a LH poetic.
So that's creating some sort of feedback loop in you.
And that may stop working or have kind of like the opposite effect after a certain period of time.
That's why it's best to cycle stronger things like that.
But stuff like this, Tim, I mean, these are just minerals.
And explain what that meant to you because you're a very clean cut guy.
You're very cautious about what you're putting in your body.
What do you think about what he did here?
tim tompkins
Yeah.
The biggest thing for me is, you know, a lot of people are trying to sell you supplements that have like either synthetic things in them, things that are like not naturally modified.
Modified.
And so, you know, when I looked at these formulations for Rex, I said, Hey, I want you to make sure that you can kind of build these in a way that just holds the ethos of the brand, but also something that I can take because I don't want to be taking something that hasn't been around or been tested for a very long time by humans before us.
So, everything that you're seeing, the reason why it's called elemental drive is because they are elements that your body produces, that actually consumes from the food that you get.
Now, a lot of people are not eating the right things today because obviously sometimes it is harder to, you know, buy a bunch of.
Fruits and vegetables, people are on the go.
It's a lot of it's very busy.
So often we're deficient in certain aspects.
And, you know, that's why I started taking these because it's really hard to like sit there and cook a good meal and get all the nutrients we need.
So that's why I take Elemental Drive.
rex jones
Even then, the soil is depleted.
You have to use an app like Chronometer and stuff to like track, I ate this plant, I ate this vegetable, this fruit had this amount of micronutrient in it.
Like we really should, like, it's so simple.
I had this thought the other day like we should just sell potassium.
Because, like, potassium, you need to get almost five grams of it a day.
Nearly nobody hits the requirement for potassium.
So, that's super important.
Elemental drive, people see 39, they go, that's a little expensive.
We got 30% off, $27.97.
And when you subscribe or when you give us your email, you get 15% off.
tim tompkins
Also, if you use the code CORE25, you can get 25% off.
rex jones
So, there's a lot of incentive here, guys.
Use the codes, check it out.
That's goprimalcore.com.
We're going to be working with a lot more people.
We've got a lot more interesting things coming down the pipe.
Really care about this brand, really want you guys to take it because it's going to improve your life.
And that's me making a claim because I know it's true.
So get the highest quality ashwagandha and highest quality multi mineral blend.
I like to say male, but it's unisex.
It's for anybody and everybody, just everything you need.
Get Elemental Drive and Ultimate Ashwagandha in the Core Fusion Pack.
Now I'm going to do an ad read for the Sleepy Time product.
If you guys take a melatonin out there, if you're going to a store and you're buying melatonin, you're buying magnesium, you're buying a valerian root, chamomile, whatever.
You can get everything you need for sleep, which is 50 milligrams full spectrum CBD, three to six milligrams of melatonin, and then 50 to 100 milligrams of German CO2 extracted blue chamomile, all for $37.95.
These are 2010s prices.
Nobody else has this on CBD.
If you're looking for CBD, Jones CBD is the place to be.
I've got Dreamwave, of course, with that incredible value.
I've got Ultra Green, which is the emulsify, that means it's water soluble, it's a nano CBD.
Incredibly bioavailable.
Key thing to remember about these two formulas, the Dream Wave and the Ultra Chill, is I use CO2 ginger root extract on this one and I use CO2 blue chamomile extract in this one.
Why do I use those two ingredients in the formula?
Well, for oil based CBD, the regular kind of like golden stuff that you're used to seeing, you got to leave it under your tongue for at least 15 minutes to get an effect because it's got to go through sublingual administration.
You can squirt it down, still get like 10, 20% of the effect.
That's fine.
But for people that really want, you know, that greater than 50% bioavailability, You're going to want to do sublingual administration.
And I made this formula.
So you brush your teeth at night, you wash your mouth out at night.
When you're done with that, you put this under your tongue, add a little bit of water, taste like you just drank a big old cup of tea, taste amazing, lie down, fall asleep, go to dreamland.
And that's why I got it Dreamwave, Ultra Green, and then Ultra Chill.
This is my dad's favorite formula, a little expensive.
My dad really likes it.
Also, on 50%off.com, if you're not a CBD user, but you still want help with your sleep, I've got the best.
I've got the classic, time honored, time proven, sold hundreds of thousands of units over a decade plus of lifetime, now reformulated under my new label.
It's a completely different product, but it's the same new product that you're used to.
Ultimate knockout sleep support.
Look at these ingredients: valerian root, altryptophan, melatonin, excuse me, lemon balm leaf extract, chamomile flower extract, magnesium, GABA, L-theanine, literally everything you need in the proper forms to get the best sleep possible.
That's knockout sleep support on 50%off.com.
Got a lot of other products on there as well.
If you're going to buy toothpaste, everybody uses toothpaste.
Might as well consider trying some of the fluoride-free that I have, the super blue.
unidentified
I've got it available.
rex jones
I've also got some wound gel on here.
So that's 50%off.com.
That's jonescbd.com.

Someone is asking in the chat, deep dive.
No, I'm not doing a deep dive today.
I know that's what you guys know.
But I'm here for it.
unidentified
It's going to come.
tim tompkins
It's going to come.

rex jones
Very considerate of you.
I appreciate it.
That actually is a pet peeve of mine.
tim tompkins
Yeah.
unidentified
Go ahead.
tim tompkins
So, Like that, that's really what I've been focused on.
So, like, my brain has not been able to.
I did a deep dive on Sunday, so I didn't have enough time to prepare one for today.
But the goal is going Tuesdays.
I will be coming in here with a deep dive to give you guys.
Cause I know not everybody's an evening person and they are a morning person.
That's why some of you who should be watching gray area in the evening, I see all of you, or at least subscribing.
unidentified
All right.
rex jones
And you know, that's we got to throw the gray area YouTube up really quick.
Logged into it already, but.

I mean, here's the thing.
tim tompkins
It's not only on YouTube.
Literally, if you go on, if you literally go into Rex's bio right now, which is probably where most of you guys are watching, him is there in gray areas.

owl killer in virginia
Rumble to YouTube.
rex jones

So, go check these out.
Go check out Gray Area Talks.
We're doing this for you guys.
And that's why I'm going to reduce my overhead.
I'm going to do a lot of things.
Me and Tim, we have lives outside of this.
And the thing is, we know all of you guys do too.
And that's why I feel like we come at this from a much more original, honestly, respectable way of doing broadcasting.
It's like we're working, you know?
And a lot of these people, they just like, this is their job.
tim tompkins
Yeah, it is their job.
You're right.
unidentified
Yeah.
rex jones
And this is like, this is a labor of love for us.
tim tompkins
Bro, after I'm done with this dream, I'm going right to work.
unidentified
Right.
tim tompkins
It's like, You know, but I really do love you guys.
All the growth that you guys have allowed us to just get even opportunities to talk to people.
unidentified
It's amazing.
tim tompkins
It comes from you guys subscribing, it comes from you guys reposting and following.
The algorithm is doing its work as you guys are sharing our content.
So we really appreciate it.
rex jones
Everything we make, with the exception of sponsors and ad stuff that we get to do, is owned by you.
It's all free to air.
We want you to clip us, remix us, make edits, do whatever.
Okay.
Take the show and spread it.
That's how my dad got so big, is just by giving people that message.
Hey, if you like the information, Just go give it to people.
It's totally free.
It doesn't cost you anything.
You say, Hey, I found these shows.
These guys are talking about what we've been talking about.
Maybe you've been having conversations with your friends, with your family that are like this.
Give them a place to go because we're trying to build consciousness together.
tim tompkins
Yes.
And you know what, Rex?
We could have sold our souls a long time ago and been super controversial and put out the slop and just be super polarizing.
You know what would get me so much traction?
If I just started nagging on black people and I just started being the Chimping out and all that stuff.
You know, we would talk about, we would grow Chud, the Bob, the builder over there.
rex jones
Let's talk about that.
Wild.
unidentified
Okay.
rex jones
I saw the video.
I saw Charleston White react to it.
And I had known who Chud was, but I hadn't seen that in a minute.
unidentified
Oh, really?
rex jones
Yeah.
But I saw Charleston White react to it.
I mean, that's like you want to talk about careers.
Hey, you're a doctor, lawyer.
Fuck that.
Go say the N word.
tim tompkins
Go say the N word.
Go walk up to black people and just say whatever you want and instigate.
Hard R. Hard R. Right.
rex jones
It's wild.
tim tompkins
Tell your local neighbor that he's chimping out.
rex jones
It's wild.
tim tompkins
Yeah, exactly.
But again, the whole point is we're trying to give you guys value here, not slop, and without being partisan in terms of giving you a right or left spin.
It really is.
We care about bringing the truth, and that's the whole ethos of the gray area and the New American Journal.
rex jones
This is the thing is we come together, we have differences, we have disagreements, whatever.
We don't hate each other.
We love each other because we're supposed to love each other.
We're Americans.
Like that's what it comes down to.
And All the polarization that we've witnessed, all the events now we've gone to, and the things that we've seen, is taught us one thing we're the realest in the game, absolute realest in the game.
tim tompkins
Nothing, no censorship, no one's sitting here telling us what we're not.
Here's the thing you're not hearing controversial stuff from us because that's not what we believe in.
rex jones
We're just hearing the truth, we're just telling the truth, we're just trying to tell the truth.
And you know, sometimes we have different truths, we argue, you know, we figure things out, but that's the beauty of the Socratic discussion, that's the beauty of dialogue.
I roll out of bed.
And I come down here, I set up the studio after I let the dog out.
And then I just come sit down.
I get to talk to you guys every morning.
And now, Tuesday, we're back doing the same thing.
So we really, we love you and we appreciate you.
It means the world that you're here with us.
I want to show this because it just popped up on my feed.
It's crazy.
And then we'll get into the caller portion of the show here shortly.
Jeffrey Epstein and someone from the Rothschild family discussed the coup in Ukraine.
This is what I always talk about.
tim tompkins
Right on coup, baby.
rex jones
In 2014, Epstein, the coup in Ukraine should provide many opportunities, many.
Rothschild, I miss our conversations and hope you're doing well.
I'll be home tomorrow evening.
We'll be free.
And let's discuss Ukraine.
Do we want this guy making decisions?
unidentified
Yes, sir.
rex jones
The vampire?
Wow.
The crypt keeper?
Real elites.
This is why, Tim.
This is why I would do the deep dive on you.
unidentified
Hi, Jeff.
tim tompkins
Very long day sitting on the bank board.
Now he's really in tune.
rex jones
Numbers are okay, but not satisfactory to me.
And I'm putting you under pressure to be more innovative about asset management funds while restructuring, inspiring people.
I'm at a dinner with a client, fed up.
I miss our talks and hope you're well.
We'll be at home tomorrow night or you're free and let's discuss Ukraine.
Oh, Ukraine upheaval should provide many opportunities.
Many.
tim tompkins
You know what the Epstein files just did?
All they did was reveal to me.
They revealed the exact thing that we all were kind of thinking about how some of these dark elite people who have an extreme amount of power think and function.
rex jones
Absolutely.
tim tompkins
And I have gone on the record with this.
If they can do these things on the Epstein files and say all these different things, right?
Just think about what they do when they make the economic decisions and the things that actually affect the average American.
They're never going to have your best interest in mind because it's not about that for them.
Sure.
It's not giving the best ROI, the best high.
These people are looking for thrill all the time because they're so bored.
rex jones
Yeah, that's the thing.
And how could you be bored on planet Earth?
That's what I don't understand.
How could you be bored?
tim tompkins
You know how when you play GTA?
And you just like you beat the campaign level and you got all the money, you got the jet, you got the car, you got like I've gone through that.
I'm like, I'm bored.
You just start blowing stuff up next.
unidentified
That's so true.
tim tompkins
That's what you start doing.
unidentified
That's got to be.
tim tompkins
You start going around with the tank and you just start blowing things up because you've already beat the game.
rex jones
That's got to be there's some psychological concept word for that for sure.
tim tompkins
Like that.
I had the 10, I had like the $50 million yacht that you could get, like the biggest one in the game.
I had all the houses, I had all the cars.
I'm like, I'm bored.
I'm just going to start blowing up civilians and just destroying all the other GTA players.
rex jones
That's literally Trump.
He's like, I don't know.
I won twice.
I guess I got to go to war.
No, dude.
tim tompkins
Yeah.
rex jones
No, but it is a thing where it's the meme where you have the dog sitting inside the house and everything's fine.
He's like, this is terrible.
And the house is on fire.
And he's like, this is fine.
unidentified
Yep.
rex jones
That's a psychological thing.
I'm experiencing that myself right now.
I'm trying to downsize and shit.
tim tompkins
Yes.
rex jones
And you got to realize that it's that sunk cost fallacy that, like, Sticking with the elite, sticking with this ruling class that doesn't care about you, like a part of it is like we do give our consent.
You know, we do give our consent by being like, hey, I'm not going to talk to my friends about this.
I'm not going to talk to my family about this.
I'm not going to listen to this newscast because it might be upsetting to me.
That's been happening to me.
And it's been on topics that I've heard a lot on.
So I think I have more of a reason to be like, ah, just again, like, please get it away from me.
But like refusing to hear information, you know?
tim tompkins
Well, don't you think like part of that is because we are so highly distracted today in society?
rex jones
Absolutely.
tim tompkins
So, if you distract and you create more things that people are just like not really paying attention to, and you kind of like point their anger or their thing in this direction, you're never really going to have those discussions or be able, like, most people don't know how to actually contact their local representative.
unidentified
Sure.
Right.
tim tompkins
Like, most people don't know that they have access to all of these different tools that can allow them to make a movement because it just, it's not just information that's easily available for people.
rex jones
And I've seen so many instances of Brutal racial violence on X, black on white, white on black, you name it, whatever.
But seeing particularly a lot of black on white, and that's fed on your feet to be like, hey, there's this struggle going on.
There's this fight going on right now.
And you need to pay attention to that while we rape you, while we rob you, while we build the robots.
tim tompkins
It's so interesting because I was talking to my business partners over last week and I was like, What does your X algorithm look like?
Like, oh, it's just a bunch of crypto, business, finance, you know, music stuff.
I'm like, Really?
unidentified
How?
How?
rex jones
Because the second you get politically involved, I was like, Wait, how?
It's like the worst stuff.
tim tompkins
I was like, I work up, I wake up every morning and it's Groyper this and Fuentes that and it's exploded building, Trump this and Lindsey Graham, that and I'm like, what's going on?
And he's like, dude, you just got to do a cleanse of your algorithm.
That's all it is.
rex jones
Yeah, I think so.
But I mean, think about the vast majority of people are never going to do a cleanse on their algorithm and like they're subjected to it forever.
tim tompkins
And I don't know, it's a lot of work.
rex jones
I don't know what TikTok is like because I haven't had TikTok for a very long time.
But I imagine like this kind of gets back to the original point that you were making about the illiteracy and the short form content addiction.
We really do need to like do things for kids, you know, for the adults because the adults for the children.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim tompkins
The way TikTok and Instagram are, they're not really serious like X. X is its own like eco space.
Health Care Psyop Tactics 00:03:51
tim tompkins
You go on Instagram and TikTok just to laugh, or like you might get like some educational form, but for the most part, it's not that serious.
And that was the biggest distinction that I've seen.
So, right.
We are, what, when do you want to do a call in portion?
rex jones

And I hope your dad brings you over to that new network because you guys both deserve it.
unidentified
Yeah.
owl killer in virginia
You know, I just had my first child born.
You know, I was a late starter.
I just had my first child born April 27th.
And just looking at the cost of formula, I'm retired military.
And, you know, thank God that I'm able to provide in sport.
I have no clue how the average person does it.
I saw Bill, my wife had a C section.
My insurance, I don't, you know, I have medical coverage.
The cost was $44,000.
How in the hell?
I don't, I don't, now thank God I'm blessed where I didn't have to pay it, but how in the hell is the average person supposed to do anything or be able to afford a family?
It's almost like these are, these costs are built into life right now to basically make you not want to basically just live alone, take care of yourself, maybe go out and have fun on the weekends.
And, but they don't want you to have family.
They don't want you to have children.
And, you know, I just filled up my card the other day.
Right now, where I am in Virginia, it's $4.49 a gallon.
That is basically the difference that I'm paying.
That's basically a can of formula every week in gas.
So, you know, it's cost that you're saying.
tim tompkins
So, how much is the baby formula a week?
Like, what is that coming out to be?
owl killer in virginia
So, we'll see because her cost is the cost right now is I'm buying it on base.
So, at Tubbell, like the Similec 360, which I guess is like the premier brand, you know, I can afford it.
I'm going to give my baby the best that I can.
It's $40 on base.
Off the base, it's $49.99, or I've even seen it like $53, depending on where you go.
So, right now, it's averaging about $30 a week, but it's going to go up.
So, right now, she's drinking about three ounces every two to three hours.
So, I'm looking at between like at the end, it's probably between $350 and $400 a month just in formula.
So, that's what I will look at at the end.
Right now, it's about $30 a week.
tim tompkins
And that's not even like the diapers.
That's not like, No, nothing.
owl killer in virginia
Nothing.
tim tompkins
To take care of a baby.
unidentified
Wow.
owl killer in virginia
Yeah, that's just the beginning stage of life.
And, you know, people are like, oh, yeah, you're going to get tax benefits.
Yeah, dude.
But that's like two.
What you end up with the tax break is like two months or three months worth of taking care of the baby.
You know what I mean?
So it's, I don't know.
I don't know how people do it, but it makes a lot more sense why people with so many kids are on so many government assistance programs because it's just not the same.
When I was growing up.
Now, you guys were just talking about Epstein and Rothschild and Ukraine.
There was another portion of an email that came out with him where he's talking to Peter Thiel.
And they're saying that negative interest rates were probably too high, or 0% interest rates were probably too high and they need to be negative.
And the best place to buy things is on a collapse.
Have you guys seen that email?
tim tompkins
I have not seen that email.
rex jones
I've seen that email.
owl killer in virginia
It's incredible.
It is incredible as to what is going on.
And, you know, I think, again, I'm 42 years old.
You guys are, I think you're going to end up there probably because of the quickening.
I think you're going to end up in the same brain frame that I am at.
There's no voting out of this because, at the end of the day, this is their monetary system.
This is the Federal Reserve.
This is the people that are receiving it.
If you can print money out of thin air and give it to your buddies, it's like you print the money out of thin air, you give it to your friends, they buy up everything that's worth any value.
They buy up companies, they buy up properties, they buy up any type of natural resources.
And by the time that the market recognizes the influx of money, It's passed on to the consumer, and that's where the inflation comes from.
And I think when people get elected, like, unless you're willing to say, we need to start over, we need a new monetary system, there's no way out of that.
And I'm wondering if that, I'm sure the Epstein stuff has something to do with what's going on with Iran, but I'm wondering if Trump is like, dude, we got to figure some way to maintain this petrodollar, because if not, you're going to have a revolution on your hand inside of this country, the likes of which nobody knows what's going to happen.
And the scary thing about it is the control.
unidentified
Go ahead.
No, no, no.
tim tompkins
We're listening.
I think you're getting a good point here.
Yeah, finish what you're saying.
owl killer in virginia
Yeah, the scary thing is that the control grid is in place now where whoever comes out on top is going, it's going to be damn near impossible to overcome, especially if they're coming with robots and stuff like that.
Like, that's why when I look at stuff old, the Islamic invasion, look, I'm Orthodox Christian.
I know Rex is a catechumen.
unidentified
I'm not.
owl killer in virginia
Really worried about an Islamic invasion because at the end of the day, man, I saw we got 120 guns per 100 people.
Like, it's not, this isn't Byzantium.
It's not Europe where people, like, I'm not worried about them.
I'm worried about the control grid that's coming into place because that's basically what's up for grabs is like, what group is going to control that?
rex jones
Well, what I heard from your call, a phenomenal call, by the way, we're going to take the next one because we got it short on time here.
Appreciate you, Owlkiller.
Thank you so much.
What I'm hearing from that is that we're behind the eight ball here.
People are behind the eight ball.
All the citizens are behind the eight ball.
How are you supposed to get out in front of any of this stuff?
How are you supposed to build up savings?
How are you supposed to, you know, prep for a catastrophe or a life event?
You know, most Americans, majority, they don't have, you know, $1,000.
tim tompkins
So, so what I hear, it is a significant issue, right?
And the only way that you can hedge yourself against inflation is if you become financially literate and understand and invest.
unidentified
Right.
tim tompkins
And investing is not like the easiest thing.
Like people are like, there's so many things I could put my money into.
What I tell people, and I'm not a financial expert, is because we try to do things so quickly, it also hurts us because people think, like, oh, this is going to get me money fast.
This is going to allow me to finally get from out the mud and basically do something.
Really, the best way and what a lot of people do in order to hedge themselves against inflation is they slowly invest over time consistently.
unidentified
Right.
tim tompkins
So, like, I'm this is not an endorsement.
Like, here's an easy thing that people could do literally today.
There's an app called Acorns.
Have you ever heard of it?
unidentified
Mm hmm.
Okay.
tim tompkins
Acorns is one of those apps that allows you to actually take your money.
rex jones
Not a sponsor.
tim tompkins
It's not a sponsor.
I would love to be sponsored by them because I truly believe in this app.
I put it on to so many people.
It's investing in the market on your behalf.
And what it does is it takes, like, let's say you buy something for $1.50, right?
unidentified
Rounds it up.
tim tompkins
It rounds it up to $2.
It takes that 50 cents and it puts it in the market.
It's one of these unconscious ways of slowly stacking and building in the market.
And you can see.
And you can see, yeah, well, you can.
I have a Bitcoin ETF that I'm also pulling in 4% of my portfolio and putting it in there.
It's unconscious spending.
And then, if you do like, okay, well, I'll do the roundups plus $5 a day, you'll find that you actually, you know, it's a cup of coffee that you don't miss.
And you're actually finding that, like, okay, I'm actually building a nest egg for myself later on.
And, you know, if there's really an emergency, an emergency, you can always have access and take that money out.
It's not like a difficult process, like if you have something else that you're investing in.
That's just one thing that you can do to arm yourself.
Market Instability Job Losses 00:14:39
unidentified
Nice.
rex jones
We're going to take the next call here.
Howdy, you're on the air.
chuck in ohio
What's going on, guys?
rex jones
Enjoying our morning.
unidentified
What about you?
chuck in ohio
Same thing while I'm working, but hey.
Anyways, I'm just calling to say, you know, Al Killer kind of took a lot of my thunder because, you know, of course, I'm big on the banking system.
I feel like they are already in control.
You know, a person reaching out for what somebody has, they're your master.
And we are under the master of Satan because they're controlled by.
These banks.
I mean, you know, everyone reaches out for what they have.
Everyone tries to attain money, what they have, what they print.
So, how do we get out from under that?
We have to change our mind and paradigm.
And I feel like, you know, I'm as old as your dad, Rex.
I've been watching him since the 90s because I always knew instinctively as a kid that the system was rigged.
I never voted until Trump.
Came because I thought, well, here's not a politician.
Maybe it'll be different.
Come to find out he acted just like them.
Damn shame.
But anyway, so we got to love God.
And that's what we have to do.
We have to get out from this system and we have to start acting because they've turned everything into a psyop.
Your dad, God bless him, like I was saying.
But him just talking, talking, it's all talk.
It's just talk.
It's just a talking head.
rex jones
I disagree.
chuck in ohio
You know, it becomes a psyop.
It becomes a psyop, man.
I'm sorry.
rex jones
I disagree.
chuck in ohio
Hey, no.
unidentified
Disagree.
chuck in ohio
I feel you.
And I can, and I'm not, I'm not talking, listen, I'm not trying to come down on him.
I'm not.
But when, what do we do?
We just keep getting depressed and pushed down more by hearing how bad everything is.
rex jones
Here's the thing, man.
Now, if you were talking about that from the perspective of someone like Fuentes, who tells other people, Not to do broadcasting, not to go out there and be citizen journalists, citizen contributors, whatever.
I would agree with you.
But the thing that my father's done that's valuable and the reason why he's not just a talking head is because he's the voice that launched a million voices.
That's who he is.
The whole reason we're having this conversation, this room right now, is because of him.
He has woken innumerable people up and you can call him a talking head.
You can say all you're listening.
unidentified
I agree.
chuck in ohio
I am fully on board with you on that.
But it comes to a point, you awaken people up to what?
To be depressed?
To take no action?
To not really, I mean, I like, like Al Killer said, we are beyond the pale of saying, you know, hey, you know, they're doing this over here.
Well, look at the crime over here.
Look at the fraud over here.
Look at the theft over here.
tim tompkins
Look at the let me, let me, let me jump in here.
Everything around you, I definitely understand what you're saying here because what he's speaking out of is out of frustration because he's like, I'm we're struggling.
This is a real situation for me talking about it.
He's thinking like, oh, it only does some.
Here's the thing about when you're talking about these bigger heads, like my father, right?
The fact that he's not casting out so wide, it does have impact because it doesn't mean that like every single person can do something about it at every single moment, but you actually might reach the right person who actually has some ability to push the needle.
unidentified
Yeah.
rex jones
And if you get enough people coming up right now in the power structure that are being influenced and have been influenced by these ideas over the past decades, it was a massive mistake to endorse Trump and to support Trump.
I think that we all agree on that, but to just invalidate.
While I'm talking, and just I completely disagree.
I think it's extremely disrespectful.
tim tompkins
And the last thing that I'll say is you got to think about the only way that you can change things is over a certain amount of time.
If you do not put something in somebody's face, they forget.
We get amnesia.
rex jones
Like, who sued you, man?
unidentified
All right.
rex jones
Who sued you for ability to pose?
Because you said all you ever did is talk.
What'd you use for your speech?
unidentified
All right.
chuck in ohio
No, listen, I didn't mean no disrespect, Rex.
I really did.
No, the thing is, I'm just frustrated.
I'm just frustrated with man.
I've been listening to him for 30 years.
rex jones
Everything, man.
chuck in ohio
I know shit's bad.
We know shit's bad.
We know the thieves are out there full force.
They are coming.
They have been here.
They are established.
They are robbing and raping us in every way, shape, or form.
unidentified
Sure.
chuck in ohio
We get it.
unidentified
All right, man.
rex jones
We appreciate it.
chuck in ohio
I get it.
rex jones
Appreciate the call.
chuck in ohio
All right.
Thank you, Rex.
You guys have a good day, man.
Like I said, I didn't mean no disrespect, man.
I love your dad.
I listen to him every day.
I will listen to him again today.
tim tompkins
You're good, man.
I get this is more of a sensitive thing for you because this is direct.
Attacking you and your family and everything that he's built.
rex jones
It's not an attack.
He's frustrated.
He wants more action.
I agree.
It's a big mistake to support Trump.
And I was a part of that.
We were all a part of that because we wanted to believe in something.
tim tompkins
Well, we thought that was the guy that was going to take action.
rex jones
Well, this whole environment wouldn't be here if it wasn't for my dad.
And no one's been persecuted like my dad.
No one's been deplatformed.
No one's been attacked more.
And for people to call us sellouts, grifters, I had somebody that I blocked for saying, oh, have your dad give you some of the Zionist money.
Are you fucking kidding me?
I lost fucking everything I should ever have had.
You say, well, and people always say, well, you never deserved it in the first place.
Maybe that's true.
That's fine.
But for you to come out here and say, I didn't lose something or that we didn't give something up, then it's just all talk.
tim tompkins
Everyone's in the same boat.
Yeah, everyone's in the same boat.
rex jones
Give me a fucking break, man.
tim tompkins
Everyone's in the same boat.
But to his point, like, you know, talking about it is important because if you don't keep it front of mind, it just allows it to go in the background.
And here's the thing.
As I said, not every single person is able to make an immediate impact, but you got to remember there are people who are, Lawmakers, there are people who have political making power that do listen and watch to what's happening in independent media.
And that's also how they consume their news.
So if you're implanting a seed, I'm just saying, let me finish this.
You plant a seed of an idea and you expose it like the corruption, it becomes something that those people remember when they go in to make their decisions.
And so if you get enough of that, it creates a butterfly effect.
So being silent and saying nothing does absolutely nothing, right?
rex jones
The thing is, is like, We should do more public events.
We should do more organizing.
We should do more protests.
We should do more campaigning.
We should do all these things.
You know what these lead to?
We do getting shot in the head.
unidentified
Okay.
rex jones
It's very dangerous.
tim tompkins
It is dangerous.
rex jones
It requires security, require protection, proper planning, all of it.
And for someone like my father that has been in court since 2018, even before my mom's divorce and all of that, like you have no idea that we have been so limited, so constrained, so abused.
It's like going to someone that's like tied up and being like, why aren't you running a marathon?
And it's like, well, we got tied up.
So, I just don't understand how you can not follow like what happened to us and censorship and the lawfare and go, Well, all they ever did is talk.
So, all right.
owl killer in virginia
Thank you for the call.
We appreciate it.
rex jones
Got to take the next caller.
All the callers on the board, people are lighting up the phones here.
Howdy.
kim in florida
Hey, guys.
Hey.
Hey, okay.
Can I talk about healthcare and that affordability?
If we got rid of like maybe 20 million people that are getting it for free, it wouldn't be so expensive for the rest of us.
One other point.
May you please do a deep dive on the true population of China?
That's all I have today.
Good job.
Keep it rolling.
rex jones
True population in China.
Here, stay on the phone for a second.
We'll definitely cover that.
What's on your mind as far as the affordability crisis?
Has that impacted you?
kim in florida
Well, if we didn't have 20, well, I don't have health insurance.
unidentified
Right.
kim in florida
Because I can't afford it.
unidentified
Right.
kim in florida
But if we weren't giving it to over 20 million people for free for them to go to the doctors, the immigrants, the illegal.
The people that shouldn't be in our country to begin with.
tim tompkins
Okay, so let me clarify something right now.
kim in florida
They get food stamps, cash assistance, housing, and health care.
tim tompkins
Let me clarify something.
I'm going to be super respectful as I explain this.
Health care has been an issue long before the last six years.
Okay, it's something that we've been dealing with for a very long time here in the United States.
It's the whole reason why we had the whole debacle with the Obamacare and Affordable Care Act because of the fact that we've had issues with health care.
And that comes down to more of the privatization of healthcare.
There is no real checks and balances on the price in the ecosystem.
rex jones
The doctor can decide, the hospital can decide, they can just make up a number for what they want.
tim tompkins
Also, I have talked to tons of medical experts.
Doctors are incentivized to get people to take things that they shouldn't be taking.
Also, because of the fact that it's expensive.
Also, the bigger problem among all of that is monopolies.
And this plays out into every single industry.
Okay.
When you have a giant company that absorbs all the rest of them, they set the market price.
And it is no longer a free market to keep health care down.
So I don't want us to do this whole blanket statement thing and just be like, well, it's just illegal immigrants because we've had illegal immigration for a very long time and that has not been the biggest.
rex jones
Off the illegal immigrants and they profit off the broken system.
I think you and the caller both made excellent points.
Thank you so much.
Really appreciate the call.
Now we're going to go to Aaron.
Aaron runs a small business and he's calling about the affordability.
Talk to us about what you're experiencing because we're also small business owners.
unidentified
Hey, man.
aaron in unknown
So, I run a janitorial services company and I'm white.
So, for anyone who says that white people don't want to do cleaning jobs, they're wrong.
The affordability has gotten so bad with gasoline that I'm at the point where I'm almost making no money.
And if I charge my customers a price increase to cover the offset of gas, I might lose business.
But in terms of how it affects me personally, I like I said, I worked my tail off, brother, and I don't make barely any money.
I'm just getting by.
I haven't gone shooting in like three years.
I haven't gone hunting.
I haven't gone fishing.
I don't have the money to buy anything.
Like all my money goes to gas and food, and that's it.
rex jones
Were you a voter in 2024 for Trump?
Did you believe in the economic recovery like I did?
unidentified
Yep, I was fooled too.
rex jones
How does it feel now?
Like, it feels like an insult.
unidentified
I feel like, yeah, it's definitely an insult, but it's also, I should have been smarter.
aaron in unknown
I should have known that Trump wasn't the savior type and that he was in it for himself and that his alignment, for example, let me scoot back for a second.
How did Donald Trump get out of all his bankruptcies?
What banks or entities did he go through?
unidentified
That's a good question.
aaron in unknown
Do you know that answer?
rex jones
Answer the rhetorical question.
tim tompkins
I mean, how did he get out of them?
rex jones
I mean, You got billed up.
unidentified
Right.
aaron in unknown
Who gave him the seed money to get out of the bankruptcy?
tim tompkins
Oh, whatever connections he already had within the system.
aaron in unknown
It was the Rothschilds.
unidentified
Right.
Yeah.
Rothschild Bank.
aaron in unknown
So knowing that, I should have known.
I should have been smarter to realize that words are just words and that those connections run deep.
unidentified
Right.
tim tompkins
No, but you know what?
You can't really blame yourself too much because of the fact of whether you came quieting up.
Trump was going to be the solution, or whether you came on the left and you thought Biden was going to be the solution.
The thing is, is like, you know, these candidates always do run on the fact of like, they always are struggling.
And when all you can see is struggle, it's very hard to just sit there and like think about anything else.
Like, who's going to really take the time to go in and research everything about Trump and know, like, okay, this is what I'm voting on and this is how I should be informed?
rex jones
Alternative, right?
You got Kamala.
Like, you're set up.
To fail, they've set it up, they set us up to fail because they're criminals, like they're they that's what they do.
tim tompkins
So, yeah, don't, don't, right?
Hard on you.
So, we all got into the same boat that this is the reason why we speak out against it, absolutely.
rex jones
But, material costs for you.
So, talking about fuel, this is also an issue for me.
I got a downsized center because I just like with the fuel surcharge, like anywhere from 50 to 30.
unidentified
Right.
rex jones
That's kind of been an event besides the fuel for you.
Are there any like material costs that have gone up?
Because obviously, you're in cleaning spaces, you need materials.
unidentified
Yeah.
aaron in unknown
Luckily, the cleaning supplies is a small overhead compared to gas.
Because I fill up twice a week and I don't have like a big truck.
I have a small Tacoma that's fuel efficient.
unidentified
Right.
aaron in unknown
But I fill up twice a week, you know, $80, $90 each time when it used to be $40 to $50 each time.
tim tompkins
That's a big increase.
Now, my other question for you would be like, okay, you're absorbing these costs.
Don't you have to increase your cost in order to compensate for the fact that you can't?
Oh, you can't.
aaron in unknown
So that's what I was saying that's the debacle that a small business owner comes into we can do the gas share charge, but then we run the risk of losing business.
tim tompkins
Yes.
Yeah, it's a double edged sword there.
rex jones
The thing is, like, I've experienced this with looking for clients and trying to find clients.
Like, it is just a dog eat dog world out there, and they are looking for just one penny off.
tim tompkins
Like that is what they're right, and it's crazy because what the larger companies do is they socialize that across because they have so many customers, they can increase it like slightly, right?
To where you know they are actually recuperating some of their money, but people are actually seeing that cost hit them without realizing that it's an increase.
rex jones
That's a good point.
That's a good point.
Blue Collar Economic Shifts 00:15:17
rex jones
Anything else you want to say?
aaron in unknown
Yeah, um, at what point are words no longer enough?
Because I watch you, I watch your dad, I've been a fan for about a decade when I was young.
And I'm just starting to get tired of politics in the way that we're just always talking about the problem and identifying the problem, identifying some solutions.
But it kind of feels like we're not voting our way out of this.
There's no red or blue team that I belong to.
They don't belong to us.
They don't represent us.
rex jones
Well, I agree with that.
Keep in mind, just going back into media, started doing Gray Area and stuff like seven months ago and started doing American Journal, New American Journal, like just now, basically.
Like I've said this from day one.
This is what I said.
It's peaceful, nonviolent, good trouble, like Martin Luther King Jr. style stuff, marches in the streets, peacefully chanting kill the pedophiles, end the war, stop it now.
And that will happen when the crash comes.
And that's what I'm going to push for.
That's what I'm working towards, what we're building.
And that's my.
tim tompkins
What I look for and why I still support the fact of speaking out continuously and not allowing these situations to die out is because, again, you have to, just like everyone got brainwashed into believing one thing and it ended up being a bad thing for us, you have to do the other because people are starting to have kids.
When you have kids, you need to teach your kids certain principles.
But if you have it in the back of your mind, hey, look, you know, Don't always trust everything that you believe when it comes down to what politicians are telling.
Some people are telling.
So, you really have to do this at a generational thing.
And it only comes out when you continuously push that message across the brainwaves.
rex jones
So, I agree.
Sorry to interrupt.
I also would say we're not just talking.
We set something up here to grow, to build an audience of people, like minded individuals that eventually are going to do it.
That's what I believe in.
Okay, because I want people to live.
I want people to stop doing politics and start doing America.
That's what I represent.
I'm America.
Tim's America.
Tim got the COVID shot.
Tim's America.
We got a free state censorship.
I'm America.
We've been abused by the system and we come together.
That's like victimhood theory, like crying about it.
Have dignity and say, hey, the past is the past.
The innocent are here.
Like the future is ours.
We can choose to take it.
They want to make us fight.
And ultimately, you're talking about is like, when are words not just words?
Like, when are words not enough?
Like, when do we have to do something?
aaron in unknown
We have, I'm talking second amendment type things, the real purpose.
rex jones
We have everything we need, and like you're referencing in the constitution to fix all these problems.
That's that's all I'll say.
Uh, thank you for the call.
Go to the next caller, I think it's new Droiper.
It's been a while since we talked to him.
tim tompkins
As you guys can keep calling in, there's uh, there's more spots.
I will increase it next time.
We can increase it up to like six people or some, well, a lot of people, but it's just you get cost.
Depending on how many people are in queue.
rex jones
Okay.
unidentified
Yeah.
rex jones
Be careful about background noise, guys.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim tompkins
Yeah.
rex jones
Here's the thing I know everyone's not like an audio engineer and stuff, but just avoid running water trains.
tim tompkins
Yeah.
Yeah.
rex jones
No trains.
tim tompkins
Speaker phone.
Like if you could just keep it actually on just a normal microphone, that would be good.
No feedback.
Go ahead and call that number.
There's another slot available for anybody who wants to talk about things.
unidentified
Yeah.
rex jones
We're going to keep.
tim tompkins
New Groy Prairie.
Is this you, my man?
rex jones
Are you on the phone?
tim tompkins
Hey.
new groyper in south
What's going on, fellas?
tim tompkins
And hey, let's talk about this because I saw.
Weeks ago, you lost your job.
What the hell happened, man?
unidentified
They laid off.
new groyper in south
Well, my last day's not coming for a few more months because they extended it.
They fired over 20,000.
tim tompkins
What company?
Is this Facebook Meta, right?
new groyper in south
No, it's not Facebook.
I can't say because I am a Groper account.
I'll be happy to tell you offline if you want to.
Sure.
But yeah, no, they're.
tim tompkins
Big company.
And they're all big company.
new groyper in south
Very big.
Very big.
They're a prominent employer in the state of Florida.
It's about as in depth as I can go right now.
But like I said, we can talk offline if you want the details.
But yeah, so starting over at my age and looking for new jobs, and you know.
tim tompkins
How old are you?
new groyper in south
I'm going to be turning 30 soon.
rex jones
The correct answer was 69, 420.
All right, what someone asked.
tim tompkins
Yeah, 69, 420.
So, what did it feel like?
What was the process like?
They just sent you guys emails.
Hey, we're just going to have to lay all these people off.
Are all your coworkers also getting laid off?
Is that what's happening?
new groyper in south
So, essentially, what they did is they went in and the legal team prepared statements for the managers.
And so we got invited to a call.
Like, hey, we're letting everybody go.
We're giving you severance.
Here's your date.
You're going to facilitate the transfer of knowledge, is basically what they said.
And they've already extended that by three months because my last day was supposed to be June and the end of June, but they've extended it again.
rex jones
They're like, well, you're going to, and you got to keep working.
Is that what you're saying here?
unidentified
Yeah.
Yeah.
new groyper in south
They said the thing said an acceptable standard of work in order to keep my severance.
tim tompkins
But oh, so they're like, you're not going to work like a slave still till we decide to let you go.
You're not getting it.
new groyper in south
Well, the problem is they're letting go so many people, there's nobody left.
And the managers are just wondering when they're next.
And, you know, it's that kind of thing.
But what was that?
rex jones
Nobody to manage, you know?
unidentified
Right.
new groyper in south
Well, here's the problem.
And this goes back to the debate I had on the gray area way back when.
They brought in a guy from India who worked at a company, a headhunting firm in India.
And then he came over to our company.
And then he got in contact back with his old team and basically said, Hey, you can fire half the people.
You can transfer the other half to this company and we'll save you money and still get the same amount of work done, which is just not real.
And the company bought it because they're dumb.
So, yeah, I mean, we're talking about like, yeah, like half of the company is gutted and it is by no means a small company.
tim tompkins
So, who is the The transfer of knowledge going to?
Are you like sitting next to some guy and he's learning about your job?
new groyper in south
It's not happening, is what's in reality.
They just put it on paper and nobody, they don't know what they're doing.
This new company, you know, like, so basically, like, out of all the layoffs, in order to keep people from being laid off, they're sending them.
Hold on, did my headphones just die?
rex jones
No, you're good.
tim tompkins
I can still hear you.
rex jones
Everyone's audio is phenomenal.
new groyper in south
Okay, cool.
Okay.
But essentially, they were just like, hey, we're trading you to this other company.
So a lot of employees just got involuntarily moved.
And they said, if you don't go to this new company, you don't get severance, you're quitting.
But here's your job over here with this new, it's like a tenth firm, essentially.
unidentified
Right.
new groyper in south
And so, you know, basically, they did all that.
And then they told the rest of us, we were just, hey, you're getting, your position is being eliminated.
And I was like, Awesome.
I've spent like six years in this, wasting my time.
rex jones
Well, we were talking about that earlier, as in, like, the concept of the gold watch and all of that is now dead.
And, like, you're supposed to bounce around and be on the job.
And, like, that's anti American.
That's not how this country used to be.
So, oh, yeah.
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
No, it's that dude.
new groyper in south
Affordability, dude.
Because I know that's the theme of the day, dude.
It takes like $120 to fill up my truck.
I'm lucky I don't go nowhere anymore, but yeah, it's over.
We're cooked.
tim tompkins
So, the question for you then.
So, like, you, I don't know how big your team was, but I'm saying you, all of you guys got laid off.
Were you one of the people that got transferred over?
new groyper in south
Or are you, or they're like, no, no, we just got ripped.
unidentified
Okay.
new groyper in south
So there were like 60 people who, just in my department, like a very small department, but it had 60 people, were just let go from my boss's boss to me to people who have been here for 40 years or 30 years.
We're talking about like there was no rhyme.
From what I understand from the director, these cuts came from on high.
Nobody was consulted.
It was just kind of like a lottery system type thing.
unidentified
Wow.
Yeah.
new groyper in south
And the company is currently being sued, a big time law firm out of New York City.
tim tompkins
So, well, that it's an interesting thing fundamentally.
If you're doing like almost like a lottery system where you're just kind of clearing house based off of numbers, because I have seen how these upper departments work sometimes, they do work off of spreadsheets, headcount, those types of things.
They're not looking at the ground level of like, okay, this guy's got this experience, he's performing this well.
This guy is performing poorly.
And, like, no, if you do a blanket like that, you're talking about the thing that I was mentioning earlier the brain drain.
This is the problem that makes the company get into these situations in the first place.
You take a senior guy who's been there forever, who knows exactly what to do, how to fix a problem.
No one's there to fix that problem anymore.
You start deteriorating your base.
It makes no sense.
new groyper in south
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm actually the second most senior.
Which, which my promotions, I'd been passed up for offshore people.
That had been a theme.
But basically, I am the second most senior in time person in my position doing my job out of the whole team.
And I'm going and all that knowledge.
And they're still wanting me to do everything.
Like they're still consulting me for things and asking me for help.
And I'm cleaning up messes for the very people who I got replaced with offshore.
And that's just kind of the nature of it.
And this is exactly what I warned about all those months ago.
I had no idea it would hit me, but here we are.
rex jones
We believe in you, New Groper.
tim tompkins
What's the job market looking like?
Have you been applying?
Have you had any success with trying to find a new job?
new groyper in south
Yeah, I'm going to smash rocks for a living.
That's what's out there.
rex jones
Yeah, people have been telling me oil rig.
new groyper in south
People have been telling me, hey, that's actually something I've seriously been considering because.
The tech jobs, they're going away because they're trying to push the AI.
And here's one thing that I will say for this AI bubble all these companies are swapping over to AI driven product solutions when they're not factoring in token usage and how much money that's actually going to cost.
And I'm sure you've worked with Tim, you've probably worked with advanced AI models.
The stuff ain't cheap.
It's like a novelty end, like a normal.
Jacks around with it can spend, you know, on like a very simple model can run you like $25 to $40 a day.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim tompkins
And it's not even that's not like quad.
It's not even just that.
You're seeing AI is one of those things that is happening because they thought, like, oh, this is super efficient.
But what they're finding is they're having to bring people back because the AI is still hallucinating and doing things that it shouldn't be doing.
And it's not as advanced as it was.
So they're having to bring back because it lies.
Like an extension of an arm, not the whole replacement of the tool and the people who do the job itself.
What you could have done instead of laying off a bunch of developers was, Hey, we want you to do your job, but we want to use it.
We want you to use AI while doing that job.
That way, you're like increasing the productivity like 20 fold.
rex jones
They're going to use AI, tell AI what to do.
Think about that.
unidentified
Yeah.
new groyper in south
Well, the problem is, is like, I work with a very unique proprietary product that has been established over the past 20 to 30 years.
And it's very quirky.
It's got unique characteristics, and some things just don't work the way you would think they would.
And AI is not going to be able to work with it.
Because it just has bugs.
And when an AI encounters a bug, they just blow up.
Or they just make something up, which is actually a lot worse.
Because, I mean, we're dealing with people's private banking information.
unidentified
Right.
new groyper in south
And all of that stuff now is going overseas to India.
It's being driven by AI models.
The AI is going to have access to all your banking records.
unidentified
All of them.
Wow.
rex jones
Talk about nanny state.
new groyper in south
Oh, dude, do you want to talk like the AI Armageddon is here?
Like, we are in the first 20 minutes of the iRobot movie.
tim tompkins
Well, just to educate you guys just a little bit, because I did do a mini deep dive on this.
AI is kind of, it is on like, if you talk about like the top five reasons they're laying people off, the biggest reason, if I'm not mistaken, is because of them just reallocating the resources.
Like, they're doing stock buybacks too.
There's a lot of stuff that's going on that we're not talking about.
rex jones
That's what I was thinking about is like these companies, they should still be able to make plenty of money, but they demand their margins be the most insane.
tim tompkins
Yeah.
rex jones
And like that, that's like, well, isn't that a real recession indicator when you see prices go down?
Yeah.
tim tompkins
Yeah.
I mean, we've been in a recession.
Let's be honest.
Like it's just not on paper.
The official term is two quarters of negative GDP, which again, like that's such a terrible way to classify it.
You've got to look at the real sentiment of what's happening here.
But when I look at this situation and I say, okay, well, where is all that money going?
They just have to appeal to the stockholder and the shareholders, right?
There's a lot of market instability that actually is happening around the world, which is the number one reason for the adjustments of the job force.

tim tompkins
Also, sorry to make this adjacent.
One of the biggest reasons that's even more than AI, they're using AI also as a smokescreen.
A lot of these companies made really bad decisions.
During 2022, there was an access of like this free money at 0% where they bought all of these different things.
They started trying to spin off new products that they shouldn't have been doing and they increased their headcount for things that didn't make sense.
And so now they're trying to trim the fat and they're trying to do it in a conspicuous way to say, oh, no, shareholders, don't worry.
We didn't make a mistake.
We're just reacting to what the market is giving us and the new technology.
But no, they messed up.
Amazon is one of those companies messed up by doing it.
They had a robot that was in your house.
They did a whole department, a robot that was supposed to be in your house and had an Alexa screen on it.
What the hell is anybody going to do with that?
That's why it failed.
That's why it didn't work.
So, yeah.
new groyper in south
Well, no, no, Tim, you're spot on because the company that I work for, like I said, I'll give you more details offline.
They were sued because of a corrupt merger acquisition to the tune of $200 million and they lost.
And so they've been panicking trying to sort because, I mean, they're just, they just, they bought a crappy product and then had to spin it off and then they had to settle for $200 million and now they're being sued again.
For they're suing them for breach of fiduciary duties, security fraud, and something else.
Wow.
But yeah, and they're asking for clawbacks.
They're going to go after the CEO and the money that that person made.
They're going to want all the bonuses back.
tim tompkins
And let me make this last point here so everybody, this comes full circle.
The way that you save the most money and what costs the most to a company is labor and headcount.
So to get an immediate amount of money or cash back, They start laying off people to account.
So, like your company, there's so many different reasons.
That is probably one of the biggest reasons because it's not really easy to just destroy a whole product line and get rid of infrastructure, but you can get rid of people very quickly and stop paying them.
rex jones
They call it streamlining.
tim tompkins
Exactly.
new groyper in south
Well, the problem with this is all these people they sent over to the company, this new company, they're paying them the same wage that they paid them here, but they're also paying whatever surplus, whatever surcharge.
The secondary company is.
And on top of that, they didn't, like, if your company's hurting, you don't cut the departments that make you the money.
And they cut every department, including core development, like core development for like banking infrastructure.
And those contracts run, you know, $20 million a year for big banks just in software.
And they gutted everybody.
And so, you know, it's just, it's unfortunate that things are the way they are.
Exactly what we've all been talking about and warning about.
It's just it hit really close to home this time with me.
unidentified
So, yeah.
new groyper in south
Well, now I'm going to be blue collar.
tim tompkins
We definitely wish you the best, New Groper, and definitely call back in.
unidentified
Call back in.
rex jones
Really appreciate the call.
We're going to go to the next caller.
New Groper, a classic of the show, been here since the very beginning.
Salute.
Thank you very much.
We're going to go to the next call talking about affordability.

rex jones
Do, do, do.
You are on the air.
What's your name?
Where are you calling from?
unidentified
Hello.
tim tompkins
So they probably didn't even know.
rex jones
Oh, no.
tim tompkins
They're probably on hold.
owl killer in virginia
Can you hear me?
unidentified
Yeah.
owl killer in virginia
Can you hear me?
unidentified
Where are you at?
Nashville, Tennessee.
rex jones
Okay.
unidentified
About an hour up under Warren County.
All the nursery capital of the world.
For all the trees and all that stuff they got down here.
rex jones
Beautiful.
tim tompkins
Yeah.
unidentified
So I'm 40 years old.
I'm 40 years old.
Got five kids to take care of, a wife in school to be an addiction counselor.
And uh, can't pay for nothing right now, slowly going backwards.
tim tompkins
Wow.
So, what's your financial situation?
rex jones
Have you been sweetened?
unidentified
Yeah, I'm uh, I'm I was raising my grandfather back back in the country, so like I don't I didn't go to school and like I didn't have no I didn't go any farther.
I do pretty much manual labor, I do the you know, landscaping, the all the all the good stuff that I like doing, right?
It used to be busy all the time.
Now, I built containers for fabricate metal.
rex jones
Nice.
Alts of the earth, real America.
unidentified
What's the fuel price?
I'm having to go.
Fuel price right now about $450.
I drive a diesel to work, which is actually better fuel mileage.
So, probably $5.50 a gallon right now.
And what is it?
I buy eggs.
I buy eggs from a farmer.
I buy half a cow at a time.
And that's how we make it, like, while my wife was in work.
But, man, I had no idea about none of this.
I grew up with two Pentecostal preachers as grandfathers.
So, I'm just now learning in the last year about some stuff, like listening to Alex and all that good stuff.
I'm learning a lot.
I never really was on social media.
rex jones
Bless you for that.
I mean, you escaped prison.
unidentified
I didn't escape.
I feel like I'm a virgin or something, dude.
I'm like, what in the world is going on here?
rex jones
Yeah.
unidentified
It's out.
100%.
rex jones
Go ahead.
The thing is, when you go into a grocery store, like you talk about buying a cow, buying chickens, buying eggs, you're using a survival mechanism that most people don't even know exists.
So you're actually empowered.
You're empowered a lot more than some people that don't know how to get these resources.
I mean, when you go to a grocery store and you're an uninformed consumer, And you're just buying, I guess, cereal and chicken tendies at Randall's to feed your little kids.
Like, you don't know there's an alternative anywhere.
You don't know about homesteading.
You don't know about going to a butcher, actually buying the cow for yourself.
So, I think you're already doing a great job.
And I think that's a message for other people to look for alternative sources, to barter with people, to trade with small business people and farmers, ranchers, you name it.
tim tompkins
You know, also, I would say, you know, you just woke up, but I would say ignorance is bliss sometimes, man.
rex jones
Seriously.
tim tompkins
It is, uh, I'm sure you're feeling chaos now, Pierre.
rex jones
You're like Hank Jr., a country boy can survive.
That's what you're.
unidentified
No, I grew up with Fox News on the channel every time that's what's on TV.
I believe, like, the Bible, Israel, yada, yada, yada, all that garbage crap.
Anyway, went to prison, got out.
I'm a convicted felon, which is another story that I think I'm more of a patriot than half the pedophiles out here, but whatever.
I don't know, man.
It's.
It's wild that I got charged with what I got charged with.
You know, I backed up in a car into another car doing about two miles an hour.
So I'm now convicted of selling.
I cannot do certain things, but I can talk about voting.
I can talk about what I think.
I'm going to believe.
I'm going to leave my kids right.
rex jones
But, right.
unidentified
Well, they make the rules here.
rex jones
That you can't participate in the political process, but they'll have Epstein's lawyer on TV telling Americans why their sons and daughters need to die for a foreign country.
unidentified
Yeah.
So I've hunted my whole life.
My whole life, they tell me you can't own a weapon.
You can't, your wife can't have one to own by herself.
You know, your kid can't have one, you know, like, but we're talking about the homesteading, like, it's all good.
That's good stuff.
But man, the mortgage that I got, like, two or three years ago was kind of, like, doable.
Man, it's not doable right now.
Like, I got an 18 year old son and a 20 year old daughter, and they're with me in there.
It ain't like, hey, we're going to move out of dad's house.
ben in indiana
She can get her own house.
unidentified
It's almost like we went in tribal.
Now it's like everybody, we're at this house.
We're doing this.
We're all eating together, staying together.
rex jones
We're living like, you know, Yeah, we'd become the third world in a lot of places.
Thank you so much for your call.
You're a true patriot.
tim tompkins
Thank you.
We appreciate it.
We got another call.
We're getting to the end of this.
rex jones
Talking about the price of formula again.
tim tompkins
Well, one thing I want to mention before bringing him on they say the population is decreasing and we all need to have kids and increase the amount of babies that we're producing.
rex jones
Well, the kids don't have the sperm.
That's what RFK Jr. said.
tim tompkins
Well, it's like, no, I think my.
Sperm works just fine.
But, you know, the problem is, I look at the ROI of like if I have a kid right now and I'm trying to also build and I also am finding it's difficult with how much things it costs.
I can't afford a kid.
I mean, I hear these people talking about baby formula.
Like, what would it be, you know, adding another extra $700 to $800 a month to take care of a kid?
unidentified
I can't do that.
tim tompkins
The average person can't do that.
So people are making conscious decisions now.
The younger people are like, Yeah, I mean, it used to be like you would try to get a kid by the time you were like between the ages of like 25 to 30 or like 32.
Well, it just doesn't make sense now.
People are like, well, I got to hold off on that because I don't know if I can put food in my mouth or even the kid's mouth.
So that's really a big thing here.
rex jones
Let's talk to Ben about formula.
Last call of the day.
Ben, you're on the air.
How are you doing?
ben in indiana
I'm good.
It's good to talk to you again, Rex.
Nice to talk to you, Tim.
I called in yesterday.
Just really appreciate both of you guys.
But Yeah, I'm calling about the formulas just because I wanted to add to what Al Killer was talking about.
They make the ones that are affordable, they are the goy slop.
They got seed oils in them and everything.
I'm in a lucky position.
I was just like the last caller.
I source my beef, I source my eggs just because I don't want to eat whatever they think is, oh, this is affordable because it's got nothing but crap in it.
I buy from the Ungovernable Project because I'm a true believer in a healthy America.
I support you guys as much as I can.
Because, you know, yeah, I'm a truck driver.
My wife is a pharmacist, you know, but we're still barely making it because I'm not going to just because, oh, I can't afford it.
No, I'm going to eat healthy because I want my kids to have longevity.
You know, I got a three year old and an eight month old that I am trying to raise with good testosterone levels and to be info warriors to fight this good fight.
So, you know, even though, like, yeah, go ahead.
rex jones
Hold on.
So you're telling me that you're not cool with short term pain for long term gain?
Because that sounds like you're not being paid.
unidentified
Exactly.
rex jones
That's what they'll tell you.
ben in indiana
Yeah, I'm totally unpatriotic right now.
tim tompkins
Being racist, too.
rex jones
I'm not being racist.
You can't complain about that.
ben in indiana
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Tim.
rex jones
Exactly.
ben in indiana
But no, I'm going to fight for what I believe because your dad really is part of what saved me from myself.
I was a soy boy, eating whatever I wanted.
I was overweight.
And I see people talk crap about the supplements in the Rebel Chat when I watch.
And they have no idea that.
Those supplements saved me, you know, changed my life, you know, put me back on track.
So, you know, I'm, you know, I will make the sacrifice and try to help you guys as much as I can and put myself into the red because I'm going to fight for what's right for this America that I believe to be, you know, raised in, you know.
Like, I'm a millennial, you know, I'm 35, and I'm trying my best for my kids, you know, and I will spend that extra dollar and I will support causes like you guys because, you know, I'd rather, you know, leave them with some type of value instead of like, oh, no.
You know, my money's dying with me.
I'm going to support Palantir.
Like, no, I'm for the revolution.
You know, I truly believe in both what you guys are talking about, your father, Anthony Grafaro.
You know, like, you guys are doing the right thing.
So I will pay that extra money to help you guys.
rex jones
I really appreciate that.
The thing is with the supplements, people don't know how bad they're doing until they take something that reduces inflammation, until they take an antioxidant.
Because, exactly talking about like just kind of being in that negative feedback loop.
You got to get something that breaks you out of that.
And we really have basically sold things that have really helped people.
And it's the same stuff that's in Whole Foods, same stuff that, like, I go to a compounding pharmacy sometimes, right?
That's on South Lamar.
It's right next to the cilantro place.
And it's just a boutique supplement store.
And I look at the labels, it's the same stuff we sell.
And people will call us grifters for doing it.
And I don't mean to harp on that too long.
I just wanted to showcase like, you're somebody that it's a true 360 win.
You got informed and empowered through the show, and you got something that helped you change your life for a positive way through the show.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim tompkins
And I'm not shooting any of this down.
I think that like the 360 one is necessary, but I heard you say something.
Look, you know, the supplements are secondary to your own life.
In my opinion, I'm not here to grift.
He's not here to grift.
Like, if you prioritize yourself, that is above everything.
rex jones
He's buying beef tallow because he's going to buy the beef tallow already.
tim tompkins
Yeah, exactly.
rex jones
That's what he's saying.
So, like, no, that's what it is.
tim tompkins
I'm just saying, like, you know, like, we're not expecting people to give their last dime, like the church of Latter day Saints, Scientology, that's like, hey, $1,000.
unidentified
$1,000 seed.
tim tompkins
$1,000 is not enough.
unidentified
We need it.
tim tompkins
We need it.
ben in indiana
Or, like, Paula White, you're buying your salvation.
Ridiculous.
You know, like, Yeah, I'm just totally for, you know, I pay attention to what I eat, you know, like you guys talk about.
I voted for Trump because he had an RFK.
You know, I was speculative of him because I just know, you know, as soon as they come in, like Putin said, as soon as the president's elected, the guys in the black suits come in, like, hey, this is what's really going to happen, you know, and like sometimes I even think, like, dude, should I just run for president?
Because I don't care.
I don't care about the money.
I want.
A safe America for our children, for these Gen Z kids that are actually, you know, waking up and seeing how evil this world is, you know, and the goy slop.
And like people are just, like you said, ignorance is bliss.
Sometimes I wish I didn't know all this stuff so I could go eat a burger and not think, like, hey, what's in this ingredient?
Is it real beef?
You know, like I make it so much harder in my family because I'm so about the ingredients now to where, you know, I hurt some of people in my own family's feelings because I'm going to pay attention.
I'm going to fight for what I believe in.
You know, your father, you know, I love that you guys played the old school clip because it's like he has been American since day one, you know, and it pisses me off when people are like, oh, he's Zionist, oh, his new wife is Jewish.
chuck in ohio
So what?

Not all Jews are bad.
There's these bad Zionists that are wanting us dead.
Doesn't mean there's Orthodox Jews fighting for us.
You know what I'm saying?
tim tompkins
I'm with you, brother.
I always preach out against, like, hey, let's not lump the whole group because there are people that actually do not agree with what's happening, just like we don't agree with the violence that America does around the world.
You know, we're speaking.
Out against that.
rex jones
But I think he made a key point about like, I think I maybe should just run for political office and whatever.
And that may be like slightly a joke or whatnot.
But I truly believe if we flood the zone with independent candidates, if we have people, just is there a limit to how many people can run?
Like, let's test it.
unidentified
Let's try these things out.
rex jones
I want to break the system.
Not All Jews Are Bad 00:06:19
rex jones
And I think we're going to build more on that in the future.
Thank you so much for the call, sir.
Appreciate your time.
ben in indiana
No problem.
You guys have a blessed day.
unidentified
You too.
rex jones
Take it easy.
Great show.
tim tompkins
Great show.
rex jones
We're going to wrap it up.
tim tompkins
I missed this.
You know, I missed you guys.
Let me just end the show real quick here.
rex jones
So, don't spin the mouse real quick.
unidentified
Thank you.
tim tompkins
Yeah, I miss this, guys.
Like, genuinely, I don't think I've done a call in show besides InfoWars in a very long time.
Hearing your guys' voices is just something satisfying to talk.
rex jones
It's been a couple months for sure.
It's been a couple months since we've done anything like this.
We want to remind people here's the thing if you have the means, if you don't have the means, totally understand, just share the live link, share the feed, subscribe, follow us on X, just support the show itself, Gray Area and American Journal.
And of course, American Journal, New American Journal.
Let's see where we're at really quick.
We're at 94.
Can we get to 100?
Can we get to over 100 on the American Journal?
tim tompkins
You got multiple accounts.
Go and subscribe.
rex jones
Let's go ahead and go subscribe, guys, because that really means the world.
But here's the thing if you got the means, just like the caller was talking about, I mean, I can't think of a better system to break you out of a negative feedback loop than the core fusion right here.
What does the ultimate ashwagandha do?
The ultimate ashwagandha lowers your cortisol and increases your testosterone.
It also increases your relaxed phenotype and it's GABAergic, meaning it allows you to compete with the excess demand, the excess exercise, what it takes to actually get into shape.
This keeps your body relaxed enough so you're able to gain muscle and lose fat.
If your cortisol is too high, that won't happen.
Combined with the elemental drive, which is the core mineral support for metabolism, enzymatic support, testosterone support, overall hormonal support, men and women in general, all these products are amazing for both men and women.
We've got the zinc, we've got the boron, we've got the selenium, we've got the magnesium, we've got the copper, the vitamin D3.
Everything you want to take all together, use code CORE25, get 25% off.
That's an incredible value.
Go ahead and tell them about it, Tim.
tim tompkins
Yeah, I mean, I take this stuff.
We got some right here sitting in the studio.
So, like these, not only just the design of these, we put a lot of effort into this product, but at the same time, you know, the number one product is this elemental drive.
You know, I love it.
This is something that Rex formulated himself.
This is the thing that actually gives you that silent energy without making it feel like you're just like, like, roided up or something like that.
It's that clean energy that we all need.
And, you know, the magnesium is something that I realized I was pretty deficient in.
So that's why I started taking this as well.
And there's just a bunch of other minerals that we're deficient in.
But right.
rex jones
It's very, it's very important, especially, you know, if you're somebody that has more melanin to take vitamin D as well.
tim tompkins
Yeah.
rex jones
Super important.
tim tompkins
Oh, you're right.
rex jones
It's like 80% of people are deficient in that.
unidentified
Yep.
tim tompkins
100%.
So, I mean, look, we really genuinely care about every single viewer that watches the show.
You know, this does go back into the show.
We don't take a dime from this stuff.
unidentified
Yes.
Okay.
rex jones
Everything is met on the program.
So we can work on bigger and better.
Better projects once we have enough funds.
And that's the thing is like when you buy the product to support the show, we're going to honor your commitment with how we use that money.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim tompkins
I want to do, here's the thing I wanted to start being able to do like giveaways.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim tompkins
I wanted to start being able to do like where like we could give people merch for free and do like raffles and things like that.
But like a lot of that stuff does take resources because that's the give back period.
unidentified
Right.
tim tompkins
So we really appreciate everything that you guys are doing.
Not even just that.
If you guys want to support in general, yeah, subscribe, you know.
While you're on X, definitely Rumble, like what we're talking about, he created.
Rex has been putting in the work to give you guys the new American Journal.
unidentified
Right.
rex jones
And we're going to do Gray Area every Tuesday.
That's Gray Area meets New American Journal, Gray Area X American Journal.
Highly recommend everybody goes on to X and follows Gray Area.
tim tompkins
Tuesdays with Tim.
rex jones
And then, of course, Tuesdays with Tim, Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday, me and Tim are live.
We do a three hour show.
That's nine hours live a week, probably more with special events and interviews and whatnot.
Go ahead and follow Tim.
The thing is, when you build up, His profile, when you build up my profile, when you share our feeds on X, comment under our stuff, that makes us bigger so we can get bigger guests.
unidentified
100%.
rex jones
And that's what's important, right?
Because people, they look at us and, like, I have some name value, but they go, you're a surname merchant, right?
But then they go, oh, you have an audience, you have a platform, and they want to work with us, right?
So that's really you guys empowering us, and that's free of charge.
Doesn't cost any money to follow Tim, doesn't cost any money to follow Gray Area, doesn't cost any money to follow or subscribe to New American Journal.
Let's go ahead and get that to 100.
Let's see where we're at.
Oh, do we get it over?
We're close.
We need four more people.
We need four more people.
tim tompkins
And paste this into the uh oh, yeah, you're totally right.
rex jones
Go ahead and do that.
tim tompkins
Yeah, we'll copy and paste this into the actual stream so that you guys here.
rex jones
I can do it.
I could do it.
I'm gonna make a banner.
Actually, no, now the banner won't work, but yeah, just go ahead, uh, take that link.
And uh, if you can go follow New American Journal, I think you can.
tim tompkins
Oh, that's only is that appearing on X or not?
rex jones
I think I don't think so.
tim tompkins
Okay, just paste that in the yeah, no, it is what it is.
rex jones
People understand because we'll keep plugging it, but that's New American Journal and that's on Rumble.
tim tompkins
You guys got to go check out uh.
InfoWars, I mean, so, oh man, that just hurt.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim tompkins

unidentified

tim tompkins
I'm coming.
I'm actually going to buy.
No, I'm going to buy.
You're going to buy some toothpaste.
Knockout Sleep and Bubble Gum Toothpaste 00:00:24
rex jones
If you want the bubble gum, which is really popular with kids, that's $10.
All right.
It's a little bit more for the peppermint because I got a little bit more of a peppermint guy.
unidentified
Yeah.
rex jones
Yeah, I got a little more of the bubble gum than I do of the peppermint.
So that's why the price differential is there.
But thank you all for being here.
We will see you next Tuesday.
tim tompkins
Good to be back, guys.
rex jones
And this Sunday for Great Area Talks.
Really appreciate it.
