Tim Dillon and Joe Rogan dissect Kamala Harris’s campaign, mocking her "joy" rhetoric while critiquing the Democratic Party’s corporate elite shift—like China’s real estate money laundering in U.S. cities—and its divisive stances on abortion (e.g., Texas cases vs. Europe’s pragmatic rules) and DEI extremism. Rogan highlights media bias, from CNN’s attacks on Sanders to Google’s search result manipulation favoring Harris, while Dillon argues Trump’s populist border policies resonated in 2016. They warn of AI risks, like China exploiting OpenAI vulnerabilities, and speculate about a future where tech governance erases human autonomy, comparing it to Egypt’s decline. Rogan’s endorsement: Dillon as the socially liberal Republican who could bridge divides—if only he ran. [Automatically generated summary]
There are people you meet, I have grown friends in my life that are, you know, I'm 39 and they're in their late 30s and I'm like, the best version of you is dying in the Ukraine.
You should be a flag on a mantle, and we should point to you and go, he made the ultimate sacrifice for freedom.
If we had more wars, one thing that people would appreciate is the whole concept of America.
Like if we got attacked, like after 9-11.
After 9-11, I don't know where you were, but I was in LA, and the fucking, well, you're a lot younger than me, but the flags on people's cars were everywhere in Los Angeles, which is crazy.
I think you can have an appreciation for life in a myriad of ways, but I think one of the downsides of being so relatively safe is that when we talk about war, it's not real.
And I think we talk about conflicts all over the world without the intimate knowledge of how hellish they are and how much pain is associated with someone going and fighting and dying.
So one of the things that I think people are waking up to now is that it's, you know, we can't be everywhere in every war fighting everybody and then just, you know, not recognizing that that has consequences.

If Trump doesn't win, the Defense Department and NASA are gonna need a new arrangement for all their rockets.
And for all the multi-billion dollar contracts Elon Musk's companies have with the US government.
The US government is going to have to either, I mean, unwind from all of those contracts, or Elon Musk's companies are going to have to unwind from him.
This is an untenable reality in national security terms.
They're very good at making enemies, and then when the enemies they've made treat them poorly, they are shocked.
This is what they do.
They kind of bully people and they intimidate people and they threaten people and then when those people then, you know, go back at them or try to assert themselves in any way, they're like stunned that that person has autonomy and is acting in their own interest, you know?
SpaceX has done things that have never happened before.
Sure.
These Falcon rockets landing, the catching the rockets, like all the plans they have for all these different things, the trips to Mars...
No one's doing that.
And this idea that you have a different political philosophy or ideology or you support a different candidate and the solution is get rid of the guy who's the most genius inventor perhaps of all time.
I think that From what I understand, and I've read a little bit about this, Elon refused to provide Starlink to the Ukraine because they were going to use it to attack Russia, and there was going to be a dramatic escalation in the war, and I think he was trying to avoid that.
I think he was trying to avoid a dramatic escalation in that war.
So to people that want a dramatic escalation in that war, the people that think that's a good idea, he's an enemy.
Early voting in Pennsylvania is down for Democrats.
2020, you had 1.6 million registered Democrats vote early.
Now you had 821,000.
Whereas Republicans...
Early voters, I think 2020 was like 547,000, 521,000 this time, meaning that the Republican early vote in PA, which is the most important state, and Michigan and Georgia, is around the same as it has been.
You know they found out that that boxer that won a gold medal in the Olympics is actually a man?
No.
That's not shocking.
The one that everyone was complaining was a biological male.
Like, you piece of shit.
They have a medical condition.
No.
Has a micropenis, internal testicles, went through male puberty, biological male, XY chromosome, whole deal, won a gold medal in the Women's Olympics in boxing.
It's so crazy to me and I think the biggest problem is the donor class because the donor class of the Democratic Party and like Republican Party, you either have people that are business owners that are donating because of business interests or you have radicals that are donating because they are A radical activist that wants something that the American public thinks is crazy.
And the money guys are at least, like, at least the billionaires will go, I want to build a casino, or I want to do this, I want to do that, I want to pollute a lake, this isn't good, but you know where they're coming from.
When you're these radical activists, they're kind of motivated by this ideology that nobody, it's a very small group of people.
Like, if you went to most people and said, Do you think an 11 year old should have a gender reassignment surgery or should take hormones to block their puberty?
A lot of these teachers are just activists, and a lot of them don't have fucking kids, and a lot of them are gay, or queer, or trans, or this, or that.
A lot of them are women, and not to blame women, but most of this stuff isn't being pushed.
It's being pushed, because a lot of people go, oh, they're groomers, they're pedophiles.
Some of them might be, but a lot of them are just these do-gooder Types that want to have medals pinned on them and ribbons pinned on them as to how great they are as people.
So it's not all these female teachers.
They're not all trying to have sex with your kids.
They're just trying to get accolades from their peers and they want to talk about what a great person they are.
So they're just like falling for anything.
And they're out there distributing, you know, whatever it is, books or, you know, telling kids because they want to feel like they're a good person.
And they're just not, you know, I don't think they are...
Nobody's pushing back in a way...
There's a lot of elitism and condescension that comes from the Democratic Party.
The Democratic Party used to be a party of unions, of workers, of workers' rights.
And it was a party that people like my grandmother was in for years because she believed that people should be able to have health care, or they should be able to have sick leave, or they should be able to have maternity care, whatever it is.
But then it became a party dominated by kind of Corporate elites, very wealthy donors, Wall Street people, finance people, and also very radical fringe elements that are advocating policies that most Americans don't agree with.
And then you cobble together that coalition of interest groups.
And the only way that works is if you condescend, because you can't have these debates because they lose them.
So the way to shut down a debate is to tell people, if you don't agree with me, you're racist, you're homophobic, transphobic, you're an idiot, you're stupid, you're not worthy of having this discussion because they don't want to have the discussion.
Because if they wanted to have a debate about healthcare, that's a debate.
People understand that.
If they wanted to have a debate about early childhood education, people understand that.
But the things they're choosing to focus on, like having a wide open southern border, for example, Benefits nobody, truly, unless you are a billionaire, multimillionaire, who wants to hire people and pay them less money.
It doesn't really even benefit the people that are coming into the country because they're working for wages that are far less.
And it certainly doesn't benefit Americans, but they don't want to have that argument.
I think giving people a path to get out of abject poverty is a good idea.
And his idea of taking and funding all these social programs based on a small percentage, like a fraction of a penny of all these speculative gambles that the stock market's doing.
And you have a doctorate, somebody might say, Dr. Rogan or whatever.
But this idea that she's the first lady, not a medical doctor, not a professor, and still making people call her doctor while she's doing the least doctorly thing ever, which is letting an elderly man be paraded around to try to win the presidency again is crazy.
Once Elon purchased Twitter, and then they understood that there was a coordinated effort by 51 former intelligence agents to say that the laptop was Russian disinformation.
Well, this is also the problem of saying that Donald Trump is a unique threat to democracy when you have literally Like, credible, documented examples of intelligence officials lying to the public and facing zero consequences and trying to manipulate an election.
Ephemeral interactions with Google, like Google search engine results and what you're showing on your homepage of Google News and how it influences people and how you can sway undecideds in a significant way towards one candidate or the other, depending upon the search results.
But one thing that people are pointing out on Twitter today, Jamie, let's see if we can replicate it.
Why don't you Google, where can I vote for Trump?
Now, if you Google, where can I vote for Trump, let's see what it says.
Because people, I'll show you what I saw people posting.
And so it's not just he's running against Kamala Harris, he's running against hostile media that does a terrible job at reporting facts.
When it comes to him.
Donald Trump says wild shit, and a lot of it stands on its own as wild and crazy.
But when they manipulate it, you know, Piers Morgan the other night, when he goes, there'd be a bloodbath in the auto industry if I'm not elected, and then they just say, oh, Trump, if he's not elected, there's going to be a bloodbath.
One of the reasons why I was willing to endorse him was watching Obama repeat the lie that he said that white supremacists, that there's very fine people on both sides.
And that's a huge problem, and they can't help themselves.
If they got out of the way, it would hurt him, because like any politician, then you're just going to be dealing with, Other politicians or your supporters or your detractors or whoever, but you have this media that's lying about you and you can constantly call it out.
I'm willing to believe, and not willing to believe, we know that the tech companies and the intel agencies all coordinated to suppress certain stories and, like, they all admitted that.
Yeah, and listen, I think a huge problem is that the intelligence agencies are completely unaccountable, meaning that there's been no accountability at all for anyone who suppressed the laptop story.
I mean, where is this Kim Cheadle woman who, the head of the Secret Service, the craziest thing in the world?
Most people hearing this, maybe you're hearing this for the first time, but this was like a source or this guy that they kind of profiled, and You know, it came out that he was, and then his kid got busted for child porn.
Well, the great thing about your show is that it's not scripted talking points, where people don't come on with an agenda and go, here, I want to say this, that.
And the other thing, you sit there for hours, you talk to them, you have a real conversation, and what they really think will come out.
And if you really wanted to make a splash and you knew you're gonna kill yourself and you were some fucking psycho and you just wanted to gun down a bunch of people and then bang!
There's one thing where his father is leaving a Costco.
There's one video, Jamie, maybe you could pull it up, where there's one reporter and his dad and someone in a mask are leaving Costco or BJ's or something like that.
And he's like, no comment, and he just gets into his car.
That's kind of the only time I've ever seen...
The parent.
This is the only...
I think they released a statement, like, we're terribly blah blah blah.
Well, I think he's treading for a minute, and then you just see him kind of go under, and they don't know what it is, but it's probably a shark.
And he voted for Kamala.
So if you're telling me he's not even racist, Well, Oprah, last night I'm watching a rally, and I'm watching Oprah's out there, and she goes, if you don't cast a ballot for Kamala, you may never be able to cast a ballot again, which seems extreme.
Will.i.am is on the rally, and he's doing this crazy Kamala rap, and then there are these two white kids, like college kids, like awkwardly dancing to this music, and then there's Doug Emhoff and then Tim Walsh, and I'm like...
These are the whitest people.
Kamala's just surrounded by this circle of white nerds and weird people.
And they're all kind of trying to dance.
And it's like a really sad...
Whereas Michelle Obama is just a much better speaker.
Yeah, I think if Trump didn't have the rallies, he might not want to even do it because it probably sucks once you're in there, but it's probably fun to be able to go on the road.
He goes on the road like a comedian, and he's able to kind of...
I bet once you get in there and you realize, oh, this is how it all works, and this is how many deals everybody has that are preexisting, and if I touch this, this happens.
Andrew Sullivan, who's a writer from the UK, who's, again, not even...
He's voting for Kamala.
He lives in America.
But he said...
The thing about Trump is, like, you can't say the rallies are not democratic.
They're the most democratic thing.
It might be, he goes, it's America in its foulest glory.
Like, listen, it might be crass and it might be certain parts of it might feel, you know, vulgar or whatever, but it is democratic to have people come out to speak directly to them and then have them vote for you.
So you have low information tribal voters on the left who really do think Trump said there's very fine people on both sides and really do believe in the Russia hoax, really do believe in all that stuff.
And then you have people on the other side that are like ready to fucking shoot liberals.
And the more you meet people in the middle, the less they're going to do that.
The more you're reasonable, instead of attacking people in this fucking crazy way where we know it's not true.
I can't, like, I used to think Obama was the best president ever.
Because Obama, I think, still to this day, the best statesman.
He was the best example that you could take this guy who is from a single family.
It's not like he didn't, he's a single mom.
He didn't grow up with great privilege.
Obviously a brilliant guy.
Obviously very smart.
Great orator.
And, hey, we elected a black president.
Maybe racial tensions can relax a little bit in this country, realize anybody could rise based on the merit of what they can do and who they are and what they stand for.
I was like, he's the best.
Finally, I felt really good about America when Obama was the president.
Honestly, I wasn't paying attention to politics back then.
I didn't understand about – he was one of the worst presidents ever in terms of going after whistleblowers.
Like that was a part of the Hope and Change website was that they were going to provide safety to whistleblowers.
No, Obama was an extension in many ways of the national security policies of George W. Bush, which was a, you know, kind of zero tolerance policy for whistleblowers and it was a, you know, the government has proprietary information and Well, there's two things that were passed during his administration that should terrify people.
You've never done it before and they don't tell you how to do the job until you get in there.
No one explains to you what the fuck really goes on until you're behind the closed doors.
That's why you got a guy like Putin, he knows how to run Russia.
He's been running Russia for 25 fucking years.
This guy knows how to do that job.
He's really good at it.
If you take a comic on the road with you and he's got to do an arena, he's only been doing comedy for 10 months, you're like, hey buddy, Well, Putin's job is to just mediate conflicts between oligarchs, which is what he does very well.
I don't know, but it was a front group that was, I guess Russia was giving this group money and they were sponsoring these media entities that were, I don't think they even knew, I don't think the people knew.
So he met someone somewhere that said, actually, this is better.
And he came and said, okay, and they're like, tamp down the Jew stuff.
So then he goes back to Russia.
You know, does all the things.
He makes these documentaries that all the Putin's oligarch friends have big houses.
Can you imagine that?
People that are working with the government get really rich and have big houses.
This is crazy.
This is only in Russia.
So Navalny does this whole thing and he shows all the corruption in Russia and then our good government people go, look how corrupt Russia is.
Putin's cronies get all these big houses.
And Americans go, oh my god, so corrupt over there.
And then, you know, listen, they try to poison them.
I'm not defending you saying Putin's a great guy, but this idea that, you know, we like to look at other places and identify things that we are also doing here.
So, I don't want to live in Russia, and I don't think Russia's a better place to live, and I think that the childish admiration for Putin amongst some people on the right is a little silly, because they wouldn't want to live there either, and it wouldn't be good to do a podcast in Russia.
That being said, why are we spending billions and billions of dollars To try to drain the Russian military over a land border with the Ukraine.
We have zero.
And the reason is BlackRock and all these companies are being promised a lot of land in the Ukraine.
They're being promised all—you know, Ukraine's a breadbasket of Europe.
Lindsey Graham, I mean, Jamie probably has that, that quote, where Lindsey Graham literally said the quiet part out loud, where he said, they've got all these minerals.
We can't let Putin get that money.
He says, Lindsey Graham, we can't let Putin get that money.
And the Navalny thing happened when we had a bill that was, I think it was a $60 billion bill for the Russia-Ukraine war that wasn't incredibly popular.
People were getting sick of it.
And then when Navalny died, again, I don't know who did it, but when he died, there was a renewed, you see, look how bad.
Don't you see why we need this money?
Look how terrible this person is.
So it would have been a weird time for Putin to kill him.
It wouldn't have made any sense.
Putin's aware that we have a bill on deck.
There's something crazy about Putin killing him exactly at that time.
But Jamie, there's another thing where he literally talks about the minerals, the rare earth minerals that are in the Ukraine, which is the entire reason.
But then you think about it, and there's all these young Ukrainian men and Russian men who are dying in this war because we've consistently told them not to make peace.
Like those guys are just like different kinds of people.
And I think that's what most normal people who live normal lives have a hard time understanding.
Because if you are a guy who works at a fucking auto repair shop, you have no relationships at all with people like Lindsey Graham.
You don't even think they exist.
You know what it's like when—well, let me tell you something.
You don't have kids, but when you have kids, one of the things that happens is you go to these things where you have to hang out with parents.
And the only things that you and the parents have in common is that you both have kids.
And so you have these fucking agonizing conversations.
And then you realize, oh, these people don't know any fun people.
They don't have anyone in their life that lives a fun life.
And they start asking questions like, how do you come up with your jokes?
How do you make your podcast?
Who are you talking to?
How do you get these people to come on?
What do you do?
How'd you get into the UFC? All that stupid shit.
But it's like, they don't know anybody who's living a weird life.
We don't know anybody who's living that weird life.
That weird Lindsey Graham life where you're all huddled up together wearing fucking suits and ties and you're in these halls of justice, these important...
You're in the Senate room.
You're in this room where everybody stands up and claps when the president says the most mundane shit.
We went through an alleyway, we went through this big door into some fucking warehouse, and then there was this bar, this beautifully appointed bar where the guy was wearing a fucking tuxedo shirt with a vest on, and the woman was beautiful, and there was no one in the bar.
It was me and Dave Chappelle and a few other people, and they kicked us out because Dave sparked up a joint.
So when you're a fucking politician and you're a part of an industry that has existed in these shadows for decades doing things outside of the public's knowledge, the full integration of the intelligence agencies in the deep state and everybody's got dirt on everybody and there's madams and fucking there's all kinds of hookers and Crazy shit going on.
So many people make it through that are like the Anthony Weiner guy.
Meaning, like, the biggest advertiser in all of these cable networks is pharmaceutical companies because the demographic is geriatric people watching them.
Well, the problem is that you can advertise for pharmaceutical drug companies in this country, and only two countries in the world allow it, us and New Zealand, and New Zealand's more restrictive than the United States.
Because it's not profitable based on the viewership, right?
So you can get major advertisers who are willing to spend a lot of money for the prestige of being on CNN. There's something to that.
You know, like an ad on CNN maybe means more than an ad on YouTube.
But the reality is, if you look at the actual numbers, like how much revenue you're generating for your company, unless you are engaged purely in propaganda.
And this is the argument.
So, like, what was the quote that someone said to us the other day about how, it was Callie Means, said how much the pharmaceutical drug companies spend on advertising every year.
It's an insane amount of money, but that money is not making them money in terms of so many people are seeing those ads are going out and buying drugs.
What that is doing is it's ensuring that there's no criticism.
It's ensuring that you don't question any narratives.
It would be interesting to see him try, because, you know, he's, you know, for a long time, you know, he's been an advocate on behalf of not only, you know, obviously environmental stuff that's well known, but like public health.
And fluoride is also a neurotoxin like at certain levels like depending on how much but the point is The corresponding increase in sugar consumption is not taken into consideration when people are looking at when people started getting tooth decay and whether or not they had fluoride in the water.
There's a time in our history where, all of a sudden, massive amounts of processed food and sugar are introduced into our diet.
Whatever it is, 70s, 80s, whatever year it was, where sugary cereals and fucking cookies and candy bars just came everywhere.
That's when people started getting more cavities.
That's also when people started experiencing all these health problems.
You have to stop comparing yourself to other people because you have a tremendous amount of discipline and it's like the nine-year-old getting fat at McDonald's is not going to be able...
So I'm just like this celebration of fast food.
And listen, I love fast food and I was raised on it.
My family raised me on it.
Thanks.
But, like, when you see politicians going in there, it is a weird feeling.
Because they look at us and they go, you guys have school shootings, you have poison food, and great, you get to work and drop dead and all that stuff.
We are, yes, we are nannied, which I would never want to live there.
But I don't know.
I talk to people there.
They go, yeah, they're nannied.
They don't let us do things.
They regulate the food or they have the DB checkpoints, but I don't know.
So the agency added they had not made any determination regarding political programming rules, nor have we received a complaint from any interested parties.
Here's my take on it.
You can't do a sketch on Saturday Night Live if that's promoting a candidate.
Those are real and those happen all the fucking time.
So that's our number one problem is a natural disaster.
A supernova in a nearby galaxy would kill us.
Any sort of like real blast from the sun would wipe out all our communication system and our grid.
There's things that have definitely happened in the past that if they happened today we'd be fucked.
But I think our biggest threat is us.
I think our biggest threat is these crazy motherfuckers that are making all sorts of money off a war and they keep pushing these agendas in these countries and they're pushing international conflict that we're all involved in.
And it's nuts and I don't think it's going to last much longer.
I think that's where they're getting hyper-focused on getting things done right now.
I don't think you're going to be able to do this When you have sentient artificial intelligence.
I think that is the end of all that.
That's the end of all this global thermonuclear war.
That shit's all gonna go away.
I think what they're doing right now is this mad dash to control as much resources and power and money as possible before the entire fucking world changes and you have robot aliens living amongst us.
Elon said yesterday that he thinks that – what year did he say?
How many years?
20 years from now?
There will be more robots in Earth than there will people – or in America.
If China wins that race, and China apparently, whether it's OpenAI or one of these companies, there was some sort of a leak or some sort of a break-in where they believed that someone had access to their information.
Hacker stole open AI secrets, raising fears that China could too.
Security Beach at the maker of ChatGBT last year revealed internal discussions among researchers and other employees, but not the code behind open AI systems.
Okay, so they didn't get the code, but they got internal discussions.
But those internal discussions may have had clues as to like what direction the technology is headed and maybe solve some puzzles that they didn't know yet.
Who knows if that's all they got because there was speculation that they got other things.
You know, China's done a wonderful job of, like, infiltrating stuff.
One of the things that Mike Baker pointed out is that there's, like, a nuclear facility, or rather a military facility that is in...
I think Wyoming and all around the area, the cell phone towers were all sold to America by the Chinese.
Let me tell you what happened in Austin at Formula One.
My buddy, Bobby, owns that racetrack.
So I was there with him and he shows me this picture.
He says, you know what this is?
I go, what is it?
And he goes, someone attached a device to our broadband, to our Wi-Fi, where it was siphoning up people's data.
Like someone had attached, they found it and they got it and they called whoever it is, Homeland Security or whatever the fuck it is.
So if you go to like a big event and you're using the open Wi-Fi, There's a real chance that someone has set up a thing where they're going to siphon up all that data and who knows what the fuck they're going to use it for.
Whether they're getting your passwords to your credit card account or whether they're getting this or that or passwords to social media sites.
Emails whatever the fuck they're getting, but if you're just willy-nilly using a VPN or not using a VPN and going and getting on Wi-Fi in some place like you You run the real risk of actually being compromised.
Yeah, and like what are they getting like what are they doing with all that stuff?
I don't know but if you sell if you're a hostile government and you sell Cell phone towers to your enemy.
They've been banned or restricted in multiple countries due to the security concerns.
Huawei was added to the U.S. Export Administration's regulations entity list, which made it harder for the company to obtain parts from U.S. suppliers.
In 2022, the U.S. banned the sale and import of new Huawei communications equipment due to national security concerns.
The US banned the sale and import of new communications equipment from five Chinese companies including Huawei and ZTE amid concerns over national security.
What did they do though?
I think there was something to do with routers.
Huawei and others have previously denied supplying data to the Chinese government.
Yeah, there was something about Wi-Fi routers and different things that they thought could be spied upon.
You just have to stay as vigilant as you can to try to prevent this from happening, but they're very good at it, and it seems like that's not going to stop.
And that's the difference between having a guy who's been in power for fucking decades, who really knows how to run the country, versus some person who got elected in a popularity contest.
Because they take money out of whatever country and then they stash it in America in real estate.
So they'll come in and buy something cash under an LLC and that however much money that would have been In their home country, because some of those countries are volatile, and the governments of those countries could decide, okay, you all have money, it's 20% of it's now ours.
Here's the new tax.
I mean, there's people that try to do it here.
They propose wealth taxes, things like that, all the time.
Make some sense.
Some of them are ludicrous.
But those people are a bit paranoid.
There's also political instability in a lot of those countries.
And then there's people that just don't like taxes.
And there's people that have made money, narco-trafficking, human trafficking, doing all kinds of things, right?
So there's people that go, I have a lot of illicit capital that needs to go to real estate in London.
There's an area in London called Mayfair.
It's all Russian oligarchs.
There's areas, you know, London is even more than New York.
London is the home for international money laundering.
And London is a financial capital halfway between New York and Asia.
You have the biggest money in the world in London because historically it has been, you know, New York's amazing and New York's the greatest city in the world in the sense that I think it's the most representative but London has always been the home of like international finance since I mean you know I mean we're talking about you know it goes like this is a part of London called the City of London is a small little part of it and it's an area called Knightsbridge and that's where they have like one Hyde Park and one Hyde Park is this building with like 150
million dollar apartments and all these Saudi kids are driving like Bugattis and Lamborghinis there and everything.
And they have Harrods is there, the famous store.
And it's just a signal to the ultra wealthy.
This is where you come.
You want your kids to be raised as British gentlemen and learn the ways of...
But it's the home of like international finance and it's been...
But by the way, not only would it be a bloodbath there, it would be a bloodbath everywhere, and then people would look at their 401ks and go, all this shit I'm invested in is tanked.
That's the other problem, because all of the stuff they're invested in is based on a lot of investments being made by those companies like BlackRock and Vanguard and State Street and Citadel or Goldman.
Yeah, but those WEF dorks are incredibly powerful amongst a crew of people.
They all get together.
They all these conferences, whether they meet and it's again, it's not like always nefarious, but they go to like Davos or Bilderberg or whatever.
And this idea that That's the thing people talk about.
Why should you preserve culture?
Is it racist to preserve culture?
And I don't mean the specific culture of any one race, but this idea that you want to preserve culture.
And people go, well, why is it good to preserve traditional culture?
Because there will always be a culture.
So if it's not Italian culture, Irish culture, Mexican culture, black culture, whatever it is, it's going to be soulless global corporate culture.
That's why every hotel looks the same.
That's why every fucking apartment looks the same.
Because the same people are choosing the same fucking ten shades of marble and shades of wood.
And they're putting up all of these different condos and all these office buildings.
That's why all these cities are starting to look the same.
Everything looks like a weird Airbnb.
It looks like they 3D printed everything.
That's why all these restaurants are starting to look the same because it's soulless corporate culture.
Americans, just like people all over the world, have less and less financial power and more and more of it is being consolidated on the higher end.
And they're going to say, you're going to rent your house.
You're going to take Ubers everywhere.
You don't need to own a car.
You're going to take whatever vaccine we think is good.
You'll drive your car on Thursday or you'll be able to Uber on Thursdays because of climate.
You're not going to be able to Uber whenever you want or you won't be able to use this amount of water or this amount of heat or this amount of energy.
And all of this are going to be edicts.
Delivered to you from the government, but also by these corporate oligarchs that just own everything.
And it's going to be a very bland and soulless world.
And you're just looping because everybody's terrified of losing their job.
Everybody's terrified of upsetting these people.
Everybody's on camera.
And, you know, it's like it sucks.
The whole thing is turning into that.
And I think as much as, you know, there's a lot of conspiracies about the World Economic Forum and all that stuff.
Some of them are probably are based in reality.
Some of them are just crackpots.
But one thing that I think is very real is all of those people, those organizations, They exist to create a consensus amongst the wealthiest and powerful people that it is better to favor this set of policies over that one.
And all of those policies inevitably take power and ownership away from people.
And reappropriate that and redistribute it to wealthier people, the government, and big corporations.
And they're not capable of making these decisions or discerning what's true and what's false by themselves So you want to eliminate anything that you disagree with and just call it misinformation Yeah, and that not only that but it's to demonize people the demonization of podcast a demonization of people that you know are willing to have conversations with people they disagree with it's all done to Discredit anything that runs counter to that narrative.
It's the same reason They don't want people to have social engagements that have any value or a lot of times the reason that if somebody says something mildly pro-family they flip the fuck out because they don't want people to have a strong community with a family or a social arrangement that's fulfilling to them where they aren't dependent on not only services from the government but also they're not dependent on the government to tell
And if the government tells you that it is meaningful and valuable in life to support the things that they support and you internalize that, then you're just going to be led around by people and you'll be doing the things they want you to do.
And that's why they get very threatened when people say things that are even mildly suggest that people are happy having children or whatever the case may be.
They flip out and they go, well, you can't tell me what to do.
And it's like, nobody's telling you what to do, but the idea that...
You know, people having families is controversial or saying that it's a fulfilling way to live or, you know, to me it's very strange when people kind of prey on your loneliness and they prey on your vulnerability to shove a bunch of stuff down your throat that would be harder to sell you if you had a family and or a business or a house or a stake in your community.
I don't think they want you to have a stake in any of those things.
Well, it proves that it is now a raw power grab and that no one cares about anything.
And, you know, I've lived long enough now to see the left...
Admonish the CIA and the FBI and now cheerlead for the CIA and the FBI. I mean, you know, in 2003, you would see seething op-eds about the power of...
Dick Cheney, Halliburton, the military, the defense contractors, Iraq, the quagmire, you know, remember that word that no one uses anymore to describe a foreign entanglement thing?
All of those people that supported the Iraq War all reinvented themselves as Democrats and now have jobs at MSNBC. Some of them have jobs in the Biden administration.
Some of them have jobs in center-right or center-left think tanks in Washington, D.C., And all of those people, they cared.
Dick Cheney has a lot more in common with a lot of the people that are running the Democratic Party, obviously, than he does with their voters.
Their voters loathe Dick Cheney.
The people who run that party don't hate him as much as you'd think.
You know, the people that were like the weirdos and the freaks, the trans people, you know, all of a sudden those people are at the top of this hierarchy of oppression and celebrated above all.
Where it used to be those are the ones who are cast out of society.
Is this like a natural thing that humans do when they find a vulnerability in a social system, they attach themselves to it, whether it's white guys pretending to be black, you know, a couple of those.
You know those kind of situations?
Yes.
There seems to be people attach themselves to something and then they sort of subvert it.
But do you think it would have existed anyway?
Do you think that someone has a vested interest in keeping us divided and so that these – Social issues, like whatever it is that comes up, like whether it's BLM, any kind of social movement that creates disruption.
Do you think that those are engineered and those are injected into the system to make people have things to fight over?
Rifts and fissures in society that allow certain sentiments to bubble to the surface, like BLM, like the war in Gaza and the problems and the protests that are happening there.
But the minute that stuff happens...
I believe people seize on the opportunity and exploit it and fund those things and bust people into those protests and exacerbate that moment because it is, I think, when Rahm Emanuel said, never let a good crisis go to waste.
You know what I mean?
That's such a crazy thing to say out loud.
When he said, never let a good crisis go to waste, they are telling you.
It's like when Lindsey Graham says, I want that money.
Give me that money!
I don't want Putin having that money!
When they're saying it in front of your face.
When Rahm Emanuel says, never let a good crisis go to waste, the whole ethos of that statement is to seize on organic problems and exacerbate them and then inject whatever agenda you have so that you can then wrestle more power away from human beings.
It's like, it's crazy to watch because when I grew up, I grew up in the 90s, it was a time of like Doc Martens and fucking people drinking fishbowl sized cappuccinos and fucking coffee houses and fucking everybody was weird and there was a...
Individualism in the 90s.
Kurt Cobain and fucking people in Seattle killing themselves and making great music and rap and all this shit and flannel.
And you remember it and fucking...
But there was an individualism in the 90s that was kind of like...
I remember my parents saying to me once, like a friend of mine did something stupid and they go, well, if you jumped off a bridge, are you going to do it?
It's like there was just this idea...
That you didn't have to go along with everybody else.
Standing apart from the crowd made you unique and an individual and good and it meant that you had value.
There's no idea that I've seen a tact more than that.
Being a free-thinking individual is coming under fire and has over the last few decades like I've never seen.
The coordinated attempt to make you think not only do you have to agree with everyone that you're responsible for everybody, that what's good for you is good for them or what's good for them is good for you and that we're all in it together and all of these things and none of it is from a place of like Let's feed the poor.
None of it's from a place of like, let's help.
All of it's from a very weird, nefarious place of like, we move as a block.
We are one consciousness.
And again, not in the Bill Hicks good way, in the way of like, we're going to condemn the people we dislike, we're going to expel them and cast them out.
And then we're going to reward the people who will come along with us.
Because again, We are this, you know, blob of shit that is just picking people up as we go.
But I miss those days of kind of being like, yeah, man, who cares?
Like, you think one way, I think another way, and it's not the end of the world.
And half of them suck anyway if you saw them in person, just like the people on Instagram, but like this weird voyeuristic thing.
Again, it's part of the flattening of everybody with technology where people...
That individualism has been likened to being heartless or soulless or uncaring and that you are not invested in the welfare and well-being of others, which is not true, by the way.
Thinking freely does not mean you don't care about people.
It means you're not going to swallow narratives that the Defense Department has handed to MSNBC. That doesn't mean you want people to live in the street.
I mean, I think that's one of the side effects of plastics.
And all the hormonal effects that people are having because of this, all the phthalates in people's bloodstreams.
I think it's an effect of staring at screens all the time, becoming accustomed to staring at screens, preferring interactions online to people in person because they make you anxious.
There's that, but then there's the veil of a controlled society that completely collapsed during COVID. That's right.
The veil of there's someone who understands how the system works and they're running it efficiently.
That's why the subway's on time.
That's why the streets are clean.
It's because someone's running it and they're doing a good job.
And then all of a sudden something happens and these people tell you everything has to shut down for a year and a half in L.A. And you're like, what are you talking about?
Why are we poor now?
Why is everybody broke?
Why is it dangerous?
Why are cars on fire?
Why are they smashing into these stores and no one's doing anything about it?
And the ability to do that now has been greatly diminished.
And the magic of the movies and this idea that you can fully suspend disbelief and all these things, I think a lot of that has had a real impact on that place because the inability, you know, they used to be able to make a movie that would convince you about an event.
They would drive home a narrative through a movie.
They've done this a million times.
Now, by the time they do that, there's 10 documentaries on YouTube.
There's been a million podcasts.
So they've lost control, and Hollywood was really this myth-making institution.
And it was all built on very, and listen, they made a lot of great stuff, a lot of movies we all love, but a lot of it was built on the exploitation of women, of children, all these horrible things that have now been unearthed.
Every documentary is crazy to watch now.
It's like, remember that 90s show you watched?
And you go, Jesus, no.
And they're like, Those kids were kept in a cage and fed like dogs.
And one of the things that happened during COVID was when you shut down production for a year and a half and then no one goes to the movies for a year and a half.
You're sitting there and there's these people, you know, in the theater and they're all confused and I'm watching their reactions and they're all like staring and everything and like it starts like, oh, it's raining and it's Arkham Asylum and you're like, okay, cool.
And then there's a moment where Joaquin Phoenix just goes, for once in my life, I have someone who needs me.
It says, Phoenix was trailed by actor Casey Affleck, who is his brother-in-law, and a film crew.
The result, I'm Still Here, was released this month as an ostensible documentary about the corrosive effects of celebrity and wealth on a now drug-addled actor in the profession since he was a child.
So the idea is that they did a documentary on how fucked up he was.
Okay, it was Affleck who confirmed what many suspected, that it was all an elaborate spoof, last week telling the New York Times that Phoenix had given a terrific performance as the performance of his career.
So he just acted like he was drugged out and out of his fucking mind for a spoof.
But I'm wondering, like, I'm open to the idea that there was fraud, but, like, a lot of top people, like, people that were in his orbit don't talk about, like, he talks about it.
But let's imagine that you were working with someone like Trump, and you're like a top guy, and you know there's no election interference.
You know that the election integrity was 100%.
You know that he's not telling the truth.
How could you stay with him?
How could you stay with him without laying it out to him?
Like, sir, can I just have an hour of your time?
Let me explain to you what the problem with saying that it's rigged.
Here's where you can say it's rigged.
Okay, for sure.
There was 100% involvement in social media companies suppressing information that would have changed the results, at least in some percentage in one way or the other.
But I would imagine that there's something you've been talking about for three years.
Like, if you ask me important stuff, even stuff like, if you ask me about, like, jujitsu, I could tell you all these different things that have happened.
I could tell you why this is important and why that's not important.
That's like a minor thing, relatively, to you lost the President of the United States.
That's a major thing.
And so if you knew that you had been cheated to the point where you're willing to talk openly about the fact that they cheated.
I would want to be able to say, we found there was 25,000 inconsistent votes in this place.
We know that there was manipulation of this thing or that thing.
Tell me.
You should have that ready to go.
Ready to go.
I agree.
It's a thing that we don't want to think is true, but if we're going to put our fucking necks out there and agree with it, or at least entertain it, you've got to have those bullet points.
Yes, you gotta have it laid out.
But I think he's just so fucking busy, he's probably got other people doing that, and they're all telling him that it's stolen, and he just listens to them and doesn't have that stuff ready to go.
Well, yeah, I mean, listen, Steve Bannon brought up an interesting point the other night on Megyn Kelly, where he said...
They had lost by a certain amount of votes or Biden had gotten however many more votes than Obama or whatever, but also the Republicans picked up like a ton of House seats, which is because there's something fishy about that where it's like all these people are just voting Republican down and then Biden.
So there were things, and again, I'm not talking about the veracity of it.
I'm just saying...
There's some suspicious things.
There were some suspicious things that he felt was fishy or tricky or whatever.
Now, I don't know...
Again, this has been a thing that's been over the heads of...
Whereas you have people on the right that go, it was stolen and don't know any of the evidence.
Then there are people on the left that go, he's an election denier, which they also did with the Russiagate stuff for years.
Said that he was installed and compromised or whatever.
And then I think there's just got to be, like you said, there's got to be more information about whatever happened.
And the fear, and this is back when I was a hardcore lefty, the fear was that the Republicans were going to be able to rig the vote with these machines.
Right.
Because the people who made those machines were contributors to the Republican Party.
You have to have an ID. Well, I would imagine, first of all, of course you should have to have an ID. The only reason why you wouldn't want someone to have an ID is because you want to cheat.
What we're talking about before about people becoming more frail and more like feeble and like the British people when you're talking about their teeth.
Or maybe even completely artificial by that point.
Maybe we realize that consciousness can actually be captured and that we all share it and there's no benefit whatsoever in being an individual.
That it's just a cheat code that the primate used in order to think of itself as important enough to continue to innovate to the point where it creates artificial intelligence.
I think that's why male hormone levels are dropping through the floor, which is all a big part because of sedentary lifestyle and also because of these estrogens and plastics and all these different things that are fucking with people's reproductive cycles.
I think humanity has been in a different but similar spot.
I think that's what ancient Egypt was all about.
There's no way that level of sophistication could be achieved unless those people were beyond what anybody is thinking about from people that lived 5,000, 6,000 years ago.
And there's like a powerful creative force that didn't just made Earth and a bunch of stupid people that were in a garden and this bitch talked to the snake and ate an apple.
No, God made the whole thing.
If there's a real God, he made the whole thing.
And the whole thing is made by what?
It's made by the universe.
The universe makes itself, right?
So the universe is probably God.
So yeah, God plays into it.
But I think there's a direction that primates go in, and it goes into ever more weak and feeble, but much more capable with tools.
It happens with some, like, bonobos.
They're super peaceful.
They just fuck each other.
Somehow or another, there's chimpanzees that are murderous monsters that just run around tearing each other apart, killing each other, tribal wars, killing monkeys, and then there's the other ones that just fuck each other all the time.
That seems like they're a little bit more evolved, and that's probably how humans were, and then humans eventually figured out tools and stuff, and we became what we are now.
Well, we're gonna keep going in that direction, so we're so much weaker than even a monkey.
Like, a monkey will tear your fucking head off.
Like, we're so feeble, and we're gonna get feebler.
It's gonna be- But smarter.
Way smarter.
We're going to be communicating completely with our minds.
If Lazar's telling the truth, Bob Lazar, the guy that supposedly back-engineered these crafts, If that guy's telling the truth, he said there's no controls inside those devices.
A biotech startup launched by a Neuralink co-founder claims it has achieved a breakthrough in brain-computer interface technology that can help patients with severe vision loss.
In preliminary clinical trials, legally blind patients who lost their central vision received the company's retina implants, which restored their eyesight and even allowed them to read books and recognize faces, the startup announced last week.
Whoa!
To my knowledge, it's the first time that the restoration of the ability to fluently read has ever been definitively shown in blind patients.
CEO Max Hodak, who's a president of Neuralink before founding Science Corp, said in a statement.
Not just Roe, but that thing that I brought up with J.D. Vance, which some people believe is true.
And apparently there might have been a case in Texas, Jamie.
I know you're Googling, but...
Where we were talking about women in a place where it's restrictive, like Texas has a six-week law, which is crazy because you don't even know you're pregnant in six weeks.
You barely missed your period, right?
It's crazy.
Especially if your period is not regular.
And then if you go to another state where abortion is legal and they find out, they can prosecute you.
The idea of that is attached to these apps, right?
So there's apps that women can use that track their ovulation, right?
So they track their menstrual cycles through these apps.
And if they get the data from these apps, and the apps show that you lost your period, or you didn't have your menstrual cycle, and then you went to Oklahoma, it doesn't mean anything.
But are we going to let people investigate people's bodies?
Now you have a reason why you should want to take over this red area and turn it blue, because these fucking men are trying to tell these women what they can and can't do.
It's like one more layer on the cake that you're allowed.
Yeah, for sure.
Like, the percentage support.
You'll get more percentage support.
It's like a good idea if you were, like, a creepy puppet master that was controlling Following the strings of civil unrest in the country.
If the Democrats had said, listen, we're not allowing any gender experimentation on kids until they're adults, and we're going to enforce the border law, and Biden had said, I'm serving one term, and they had a primary, Trump probably wouldn't be back.
He's back because they opened the fucking door.
His main issue is immigration.
They literally exacerbated it.
10 million illegals came over the border.
And then people are incredibly uncomfortable with their children being indoctrinated in schools with this crap.
We need to have a distinction between citizen and non-citizen.
The social contract has to be...
Otherwise, we have a social contract with no...
It's invalidated completely when you're bringing people in from all over the world and the government is promising them things and they're getting votes and they're replacing Americans in certain manufacturing jobs or whatever.
You don't have any sense of a country, and you need a country, and you need a working class person who's not condescending, and somebody who goes, look at the Tavistock clinic in the UK that just closed.
Why?
Because experimental transgender therapies for children is a science that is not only not settled, but it is doing damage to people.
This is why that clinic's full of progressives that said, We're shutting this down because we're making a lot of fucking mistakes that are irreversible and these are human beings.
If you take away those issues, Then the Republicans have to run on, you know, an economic platform that may or may not be that popular.
But the Democrats chose instead to elevate DEI to talk about the most important thing in America is diversity, equity, and inclusion.
They chose to convince everyone, all of the social capital that they spent convincing people how important it was to support The Ukraine with no plan and no endgame and open-ended and ditto, you know, whatever Israel wants to do and maybe we'll have to go into Iran and like to get all of that and to explain that to people and they didn't even explain it that well, but they kept telling people how important it was.
They could have easily, easily crafted a message that was That was rational and sane.
All they had to be was because Trump is a lot.
And I think there's a lot of people in America that would have said, hey, man, we should just move on.
Because if you're going to go with all that DEI stuff, if you're going to go all with...
But here's the thing.
If you're going to go all in with this idea that we need a woman of color who's the president, which is one of the things that they were saying all along, that he was going to do that.
And I was like, why not just have the best person?
On the other side, you have these corporate oligarchs that are demanding fealty to foreign wars, endless trade agreements that don't benefit workers, hollowing out the middle class.
And this was all stuff the Republicans were all about in the 80s.
And the Democrats were about in the 90s under NAFTA and stuff like that.
So if you transform the Democratic Party, again, into a workers' party with common sense, reasonable considerations, and it's not based on religious fundamentalism, and it's not based on woke fundamentalism on the other side.
I defend her right to express herself through music, but her comments before and after Los Angeles were filled with the kind of hatred that you do not honor today and tonight.
unidentified
Just listen to this, what she said.
She told the Washington Post about a month ago, and I quote, if black people kill black people every day, why not have a week and kill white people?
So you're a gang member and you'd normally kill somebody?
Why not kill a white person?
Last year she said, you can't call me or any black person anywhere in the world a racist.
We don't have the power to do to white people what white people have done to us.
Repudiated a lot of what happened in the madness of 2020, 2021, all that stuff, and said America is not a white supremacist country that is only set up to terrorize people of color and minorities,
and that, you know, yes, we've had a past that's been terrible, but we've made tons of progress, and People should be rewarded in this country on the basis of their hard work, their ability, their willingness to take risk, and we cannot have a society that is arranged by people's tribal identity.
If she'd come out and gave some more eloquent version, I'm off the top of my head, of that speech, it would have been her sister soldier moment, and she could have said, This, my party went in the wrong direction.
And by the way, it would have been very compelling to a lot of people.
If she said, if a Venezuelan steals your phone, they go right to jail, I would be phone banking for her.
She hasn't acknowledged his appeal.
They never give him his due.
They never give Trump his due.
Had she said in the debate, listen...
Trump, you brought a lot of people into politics.
You've ignited their passions.
I respect that.
And you've brought up issues that are important that have been ignored for a long time by both parties.
But I just think we need to move forward in this election.
And you're a very entertaining guy.
Bill Clinton said to George H.W. Bush, he goes, in the middle of the debate, he goes, listen, we all respect your military service.
And we respect the sacrifice you made for the country, but I think we have to go on another direction.
And it was just, and then you could see like HW, the older one, being like, oh, he was seething because Clinton had kind of complimented him and said, we like what you did, but we got to go in this new direction.
So then all the pressure comes out, and then the bumbles, and then the interviews, and the stumbles, and the inability to ask, to answer certain questions, and then all that stuff.
So her ability to do that kind of thing is dependent upon a teleprompter and a well-rehearsed speech.
Because that moment, he was the left flank of his party, I'm sure didn't love that, and I'm sure that there were people that criticized him for that, but he basically came out and said, listen, I'm going to go out here and I'm going to take a stance that's going to anger people, but I'm going to reach across the aisle and say, you're right, this is not moving us in the right direction.
There were moments that she could have done that.
She chose not to.
And I think that's, again, we don't know anything, so I don't know if I'm doing a post-mortem on her campaign or not.
There was a time I thought it was definitely her, and then there was a time that I thought it was definitely him, and then there was a time I thought it was definitely her, and now I think it's him again.
It's a total, you know, it's patronizing to the American people to just put this guy out there and say he's just like you.
And he's one of the most radical people.
I mean, he's just not a mainstream guy.
Shapiro's much more of a mainstream guy who just happened to be Jewish.
And this guy who comes from Minnesota is a very far-left radical guy who, again, he's not Karl Marx, but he's nowhere near...
The mainstream of American politics.
And they pick him out and they go, but he talks, he's folksy, he's got a charm, he's a fun guy, but he happens to be a liar and full of shit.
And you know, his wife, when the BLM riots were happening, said, we just rolled down the, you just opened the windows and smelt the burning tires and really took in the moment.
And then I think it goes back to what we're talking about, about secret societies.
Like, there's always been these people that were in the White House or wherever these fucking places, these people fucking, they go crazy behind closed doors.
The fucking censorship of it all is the thing that's the most spooky, because it's the only thing that's going to keep us from working our way out of this together.
