#20: March 6 & Celebrity Cameos

Today, Dan tells Jordan all about what happened on the March 6th episode of The Alex Jones Show, plus they discuss celebrity drop-ins from "lovable weirdo" Eddie Bravo and "potentially a Nazi" Jesse James.  Topics discussed include: Are Gen. Flynn and Jeff Sessions the real victims? Is listening to Alex Jones unofficially required of servicemen? Does Alex think that random memes are "primary sources?" Can one be both a literal and metaphorical vampire?

Speaker Time Text
alex jones
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air.
Thanks for holding.
unidentified
Hello, Alex.
jordan holmes
I'm a first-time caller.
unidentified
I'm a huge fan.
I love your work.
alex jones
I love you.
dan friesen
Hey, everybody.
Welcome back to The Knowledge Fight.
It's The Knowledge Fight.
jordan holmes
It's The Knowledge Fight now?
dan friesen
Oops, accidentally changed titles of the podcast by misspeaking.
Oh, no.
jordan holmes
Already off to a blistering start, as is our want.
dan friesen
We are terrible at the opening.
I'm Dan.
jordan holmes
I'm Jordan!
dan friesen
This is a podcast where we sit down and drink a little bit of wine and discuss Alex Jones, but...
jordan holmes
Twist!
dan friesen
This is a chubby checker-level twist.
I watch tons of InfoWars and know a lot about Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
And I don't know a goddamn thing about him.
dan friesen
And that's where we find our fun.
Guys, sorry we only had one episode last week, but, you know, realities of life happen.
And we didn't promise you shit.
jordan holmes
You got very defensive very quickly.
Nobody would have even said anything.
dan friesen
Twist, I got defensive.
jordan holmes
It's a good thing that we're finally getting an episode, and instead you're like, fuck you guys!
dan friesen
I think I'm projecting a little bit of anger at myself, not because we didn't get any episodes out last week other than Monday, but because I listened to the show, I listened to Alex Jones the entire week.
For what feels like nothing.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it was a very fruitless quest for you.
dan friesen
That makes me very angry.
That's like if I had played Hours of Zelda and did not end up freeing an elephant.
jordan holmes
Jesus, you are going to keep going about Zelda.
It's a great, I've heard nothing but positive reviews about it.
I don't have any Nintendo, so I don't get to play Breath of the Wild.
dan friesen
That is actually why we didn't record.
jordan holmes
It really is.
It really is, isn't it?
dan friesen
Yeah, because I've been playing too much Zelda.
By the way, guys, it's a great game.
jordan holmes
All right.
dan friesen
But that's not what this is about.
jordan holmes
Stop buzz marketing.
They're not paying us.
dan friesen
This show is not a video game review show.
jordan holmes
That would be a stark pivot really quick.
dan friesen
Yeah, that would be like Trump being a decent man all of a sudden.
That level of pivot.
Guys, we like to start things off.
We like to get warmed up.
So I have a couple of out-of-context clips of Alex Jones from the area of time we're covering is all of last week, March 6th through 10th.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
But I reserve the right to go back to that time period more specifically later.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Because the only reason...
It's basically Monday through Wednesday is what we're covering.
But we have to go to Friday in order...
Fuck this.
jordan holmes
You are turning this into a very convoluted question.
alex jones
Here's the big enchilada.
jordan holmes
Jesus, now you're interrupting me with clips?
unidentified
Man, Zelda has changed you.
dan friesen
Anyway, sorry about that.
alex jones
Here's the big enchilada.
dan friesen
That's our out-of-context drop.
jordan holmes
That was it?
dan friesen
I've noticed...
jordan holmes
I kept waiting for something.
dan friesen
No, see, here's the thing.
I've noticed that he is now obsessed with the expression, the big enchilada.
jordan holmes
Has he been saying that a lot?
dan friesen
So much.
I could make a massive supercut of, like, the 30 times he says it over a couple days, but I just have a second.
alex jones
That's not even the big enchilada.
Let me give you the big kahuna.
dan friesen
Now it's not even the big enchilada.
There's the big kahuna.
jordan holmes
Those aren't related to each other in any way.
dan friesen
They're just both big.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Big kahuna.
jordan holmes
Big enchilada.
dan friesen
That's a person.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Big enchilada is just delicious.
Might order an enchilada for dinner.
jordan holmes
Have you considered whether or not the big kahuna is also delicious?
dan friesen
I imagine he is.
jordan holmes
You think so?
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
What is the big kahuna?
dan friesen
The big kahuna is like it's a Hawaiian thing.
jordan holmes
That's right.
You lived in Hawaii for a while.
dan friesen
For a little bit.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
It's just a cool dude, man.
jordan holmes
Oh, okay.
dan friesen
The big kahuna is the guy who's on top.
jordan holmes
It's not like an official title or something like that?
dan friesen
I don't think so.
It's not like kinkamehameha or anything like that.
Or, you know, the humuhumunukunukuapua 'a.
That's the state fish.
jordan holmes
Oh.
dan friesen
I just like saying it.
jordan holmes
I can tell.
dan friesen
Anyway.
jordan holmes
You said it with relish.
dan friesen
So, Jordan.
jordan holmes
All right, let's get to some clips.
dan friesen
We're going to start here on March 6th.
That's Monday, if you're nasty.
And what goes on on this episode is Alex is still in a holding pattern at this point.
Because he is still like, all this bad news is coming out about Russia, all of these things.
The news hasn't broken at this point that Flint...
General Flynn has...
jordan holmes
Also been an agent for Turkey as well.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Just making that money.
dan friesen
Retroactively files...
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's great.
dan friesen
Yeah, real bad.
But he still has to keep up his side of things.
So this clip is how he decides to start the show off.
And I would say it's ill-advised.
It's very dishonest.
And it also...
It's a good example of victim card playing when that is not appropriate at all.
alex jones
Three weeks ago when General Flynn resigned, that he was basically told to resign, told that the president ordered him to resign.
He didn't even go in and ask the president, he just resigned.
dan friesen
He doesn't develop this in this clip, but this is something he talks about all the time, and he's basically hanging Reince Priebus out to dry.
unidentified
Uh, I mean, not a bad idea.
jordan holmes
No, but that- You should be hanging just about everybody out to dry at this point.
dan friesen
Yeah, but Alex's narrative is Reince Priebus likes to go to people and tell them that they need to quit, and that the president has told them to quit.
And then they go and talk to Trump, and Trump's like, I didn't say that!
jordan holmes
I don't think Trump...
I think the news is that Trump didn't tell Flynn to quit.
That Trump told him not to, and it was everybody else around him who was like...
dan friesen
Like, you gotta get the fuck out of here.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
It was like Pence and those guys being like, hey, Trump.
This is fucking insane.
Don't do this anymore.
dan friesen
This is beyond what we can absorb.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
We're testing the limits, and this might be beyond the limits.
dan friesen
That seems like a more likely story than the story of Reince Priebus sneakily going around and trying to trick people into resigning.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
For what end?
To what end?
jordan holmes
I think to become the president.
dan friesen
Reince Priebus.
jordan holmes
Reince Priebus.
The 48th president of the United States inaugurated three months after we've gone through four presidents forced to impeach.
dan friesen
And then somehow we're going to be cool with him.
jordan holmes
I mean, how many presidents in a row do you impeach before you're just like, nah, we're done with this whole America thing?
dan friesen
Well, here's the good news.
Impeachments are much easier as they go along.
You get used to it.
It's like...
It's like committing a burglary.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
The first one is incredibly difficult, but by the time you're on to the fourth impeachment, you got it down.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
You know what you're doing.
You've streamlined the system.
Sure.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
You get him in, get him out.
dan friesen
Yeah, so I think that that's how we...
jordan holmes
It'd take at least two months to impeach Trump.
We get through...
Uh, Pence in about a week and a half.
unidentified
Yep.
jordan holmes
Then fucking Paul Ryan.
Paul Ryan's actually just assassinated by Congress.
Like, they just murder him on the floor.
dan friesen
Sure, sure, sure, sure.
jordan holmes
Uh, who's next in line?
The President Potempoor?
dan friesen
I don't fucking know at that point.
jordan holmes
That would be the oldest ranking Senate, uh, member.
So let's just go with, uh, the devil.
I'm assuming he's one of them at this point.
dan friesen
Wait, wait, hold on.
jordan holmes
He was elected in Alabama.
We know that.
dan friesen
The next person in the order of succession isn't the oldest person.
jordan holmes
No, the president pro tempore is the oldest.
Traditionally, they give it to the oldest member of the Senate.
dan friesen
Like, age oldest or longest tenure?
jordan holmes
Age oldest.
dan friesen
Oh, that's a bad idea.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
Well, that's why that fucking, what's his, Strom Thurmond was the fourth in line to become president for years.
dan friesen
It makes sense.
jordan holmes
Strom Thurmond!
dan friesen
I always wondered why that was the case.
jordan holmes
Yeah!
It surely wasn't because he was a well-known social justice warrior.
dan friesen
Certainly not.
He's not out there with Rainbow Snatch having fun in the parks.
jordan holmes
Nope.
He's hating on the blacks.
dan friesen
So anyway, Flynn...
jordan holmes
Yeah, thank God he's dead, by the way.
dan friesen
Amen.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
So Flynn's got, you know, he got duped by Priebus.
You got Priebus-ed.
jordan holmes
You're going to need to take the short previous to get to school from now on.
dan friesen
So then it gets more into how this exact same thing basically happened with Sessions, but didn't.
It's very weird, this narrative.
alex jones
And the word I got Friday, before it even came out on Saturday, was that President Trump was absolutely infuriated, and it's now in the news, that he had not.
jordan holmes
You don't need to, every day, every day, you don't need to put Trump is furious.
It's in the news every day.
dan friesen
Yeah, it's in the tweets, it's in the paper, it's in the white papers.
jordan holmes
If you put it in the newspaper, you're just doing Dog Bites Man all over again.
Trump is always furious.
dan friesen
Trump is mad is taken as read.
Yeah, exactly.
It's implied across the board.
jordan holmes
Yeah, every story.
dan friesen
But when you were talking, you went over...
jordan holmes
Yeah, sorry, I got very frustrated with his lies.
dan friesen
It's very stupid.
jordan holmes
We're off to a great start.
dan friesen
Yeah, you know what?
We can't take weeks off in the future.
unidentified
Our rhythm is slightly off, and I think we can both feel it.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We're gonna get into the groove here.
dan friesen
This white wine is what's doing it.
We always drink red wine, or champagne, and I think this white wine is fucking us up.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Anyway, what he said there was that the reason that Trump was really mad is because Sessions didn't ask him about resigning, or recusing himself, which is...
Not the role of the Attorney General.
jordan holmes
Isn't that, like, that's bad, ethically.
dan friesen
It would be bad.
jordan holmes
It would be very bad if the Attorney General went to the President and was like, hey, this investigation into you, do you want me to recuse myself?
dan friesen
Yeah, that seems incredibly unethical.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
But that's what Alex wants, man.
jordan holmes
Of course.
dan friesen
So he's mad because he didn't get to consult on it, even though the Attorney General's office and the executive branch...
The president are separate entities.
jordan holmes
Quote.
Unquote.
dan friesen
For now.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
Until Trump declares himself also the attorney general.
dan friesen
At press time, that has not happened.
jordan holmes
But it may.
dan friesen
Who knows?
I mean, we're recording over the weekend, right?
jordan holmes
Monday could bring all kinds of new Trump is dictator for life.
All of these headlines, I can believe.
dan friesen
Yeah, anything is possible except for Alex telling the truth.
alex jones
Ridiculous that the attorney general...
Jeff Sessions recused himself.
When he was very clear, he was asked about Russians talking to them as surrogates on the campaign trail.
Of course, he, as the ranking member of the Armed Services Committee in the Senate, spoke with the Russians twice that year.
jordan holmes
Still on that lie.
alex jones
So this is Running Scared, and Drudge has the headline, but we've been calling it since day one.
Dems smell blood in the water.
Comey turns on Trump.
dan friesen
Again, we agree that there's blood in the water.
jordan holmes
Yeah, there is blood in the water.
alex jones
Now, the most amazing thing about all of this is I went and pulled the reports yesterday and did a special live report at 1 o 'clock.
And a lot of you watched it.
We also aired excerpts of it on yesterday's Sunday show.
And I went and pulled up the articles from a month ago when they were all over the news saying wiretaps tracking the Trump organization And tracking phone calls out of Trump Tower recorded General Flynn talking to the Russian ambassador.
They went, oh, it's so dirty, it's so bad.
When he admittedly was setting up the phone calls to the ambassador for a call with the president and Putin, that's what presidents do.
jordan holmes
Exactly zero of that happened.
dan friesen
Yeah, 100%.
jordan holmes
Zero of that happened.
dan friesen
And the stuff that is...
jordan holmes
Not even one of the things that he said.
I don't even think the word the in that sentence was accurate.
dan friesen
It's a disgrace to the definite article.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
dan friesen
But it's like the parts of it that are kind of accurate are misrepresented.
jordan holmes
Well, they didn't wiretap Trump.
No.
We already got distracted from getting Sessions away by just Trump lying and everybody being like, well, where's the evidence?
Of course there's no goddamn evidence!
dan friesen
Yeah, it's a distraction tactic.
jordan holmes
It's another lie!
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
Just ignore it!
Look at this over here!
unidentified
Look at this over here!
jordan holmes
Yeah!
He's jangling keys in front of the press and they're like, oh, they're shiny!
That's what he's doing.
dan friesen
Yeah, absolutely.
jordan holmes
Everybody's babies now.
dan friesen
Yeah, we all babies up in this.
Let me suck that titty.
We babies!
jordan holmes
Oh, boy.
That white wine is destroying you.
dan friesen
Oh, my God.
I think where we're getting off track here is that I'm being too playful.
I think this white wine is bringing out an unnecessary playfulness that is out of my knowledge fight character.
jordan holmes
I think you're just really...
Struggling to divorce yourself from the Zelda world?
dan friesen
There is a part of that.
jordan holmes
Like, you're still wandering about it in your brain, like, oh look, that's beautiful, I saved an elephant!
dan friesen
That elephant is really cool.
jordan holmes
Alright.
dan friesen
Anyway, yeah, everything is bullshit.
Everything is fake in what he's saying.
He's going to make some other false equivalences about this exact same stuff later, but one of the things he doesn't understand is what he's talking about, basically.
Which sounds like...
jordan holmes
Alex Jones, colon, doesn't understand what he's talking about.
The movie.
dan friesen
That's the headline.
But he says these things like, Flynn was taking calls to set up meetings for Trump to talk to them theoretically about sanctions, but the media twists it and says that they were talking about sanctions.
The reports from intelligence communities have been like...
He was straight talking about sanctions.
jordan holmes
Well, and even then, the wiretap that they're talking about is loosely...
I think their basis for the story is that there was a server that was connected to Trump.
dan friesen
And it connected to the Alpha Bank.
jordan holmes
Yeah, and it connected to the Alpha Bank, and that was 80% of its traffic just going back and forth there.
And every time they're like, oh, he's probably spam email experts are like...
There's not a chance.
dan friesen
It's specifically set up to be secret.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
It's a private server used for illicit business.
The one reason that we don't have Hillary Clinton as the president is because it took three weeks into Trump's goddamn presidency to find this bullshit.
dan friesen
Jordan, let me speculate something.
jordan holmes
Let's speculate.
dan friesen
What if?
jordan holmes
What if?
dan friesen
They just have really good spam emails.
So that's why he had to set up a separate server connected to them, doing tons of traffic, because it's awesome.
jordan holmes
What's a really good spam email?
dan friesen
Spam dank memes.
It's just tons of cool memes that the bank is sending Trump through his personal server.
jordan holmes
That bank that is giving him a lot of money and he's owing and great deals and so on and so forth.
dan friesen
Okay, good point.
It's memes.
jordan holmes
Good point.
Sweet memes.
dan friesen
Sweet-ass memes.
But yeah, the other thing is that Alex conflates the wiretap stuff with what Trump...
Asserted.
And that is that Obama did this.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
And that is not true at all.
Even in the loosest sense.
jordan holmes
An insane...
unidentified
Hold on.
dan friesen
But that's why I think right-thinking people are upset.
It's not that people think like, oh, Trump's lying about being wiretapped.
jordan holmes
We're all just used to that now.
dan friesen
But there is some kernel of people were looking into stuff.
jordan holmes
For good reason.
dan friesen
Yes, people were...
jordan holmes
A court...
Said it's a good idea.
dan friesen
People were investigating him for shit.
jordan holmes
The shit that he did.
dan friesen
So when he says, people were wiretapping me, no one really is saying that that's insane.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
They think it's insane and wildly inappropriate that he's like, Obama did it!
jordan holmes
Right.
unidentified
That's the part that people are fucking pissed about.
jordan holmes
That's the thing about that is that...
They have turned Obama into such a boogeyman that now you can basically, to the right, of course, because they're fucking done as human beings.
They're done.
dan friesen
They've checked out.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
You can just say Obama did anything and they'll be like, yeah, I believe that shit.
And of course Trump would say it because that's the type of thinking Trump has.
In Trump's mind, if somebody was challenging him for the presidency...
He would be like, well, of course you wiretap them.
Of course I would sabotage them.
How else are you going to get them?
Yeah.
dan friesen
Absolutely.
jordan holmes
You've got to wiretap them.
dan friesen
It's cutthroat business world shit.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
So to him, it makes perfect sense.
I genuinely think he believes that utter and complete bullshit.
dan friesen
Because he read it on Breitbart.
jordan holmes
Yeah, well.
dan friesen
Which is another problem that will come up.
But back to the clip.
alex jones
But they were all over the news saying they had the transcript.
The New York Times had it.
Obama.
dan friesen
Again, he's implying that the transcripts are released and they aren't.
jordan holmes
They are not.
alex jones
Last week, before all this latest wiretapping broke, before Trump stood up against it, said they gave it to the New York Times that they, quote, protected the intelligence so that Trump couldn't get rid of it.
Oh, we committed a crime so Trump couldn't get rid of it.
dan friesen
Here he's implying that they gave the information to the media to protect it, and what actually happened was that...
jordan holmes
They disseminated it through government agencies, right?
unidentified
Yes.
jordan holmes
And lowered the classification as much as possible so as many people could see it.
dan friesen
And made it so that various intelligence agencies could share information.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
That was what the executive order that Obama signed did.
jordan holmes
The information that proved that Trump was committing treason all over the place.
Our president's a traitor, right?
Have we all just agreed on that yet?
dan friesen
Well, I mean, even if you...
jordan holmes
Which, by extension, means that the entire GOP Congress is traitors.
dan friesen
They're at least beating and abetting a traitor.
Yeah, exactly.
Hang them all.
If you want to take a step back and not say something that inflammatory, you can just take the instance of the Chinese granting...
jordan holmes
The trademark is insane.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
That's by definition.
Yeah.
One sentence of the Constitution says, don't do that.
It might as well have been in parentheses Thomas Jefferson in the margin saying, by the way, we can see the future and this is Donald Trump.
unidentified
Yeah, like it's a fucking Simpsons episode.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it is 100% what he did.
And nobody is fucking, all of the Second Amendment bullshit of like, oh, you gotta protect the Constitution goes out the fucking window when it's goddamn Trump the traitor.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
Ooh, I just did our first dirty dossier, I think.
dan friesen
Trump traitor?
jordan holmes
Trump traitor.
Traitor Trump!
dan friesen
That's where I get my groceries.
jordan holmes
Goddamn it, you got there first, you son of a bitch!
alex jones
And then they have Brennan and Clapper and all the usual suspects.
On TV, on the Sunday shows yesterday, saying Trump's crazy.
They use words like preposterous.
They use words like reckless, just bizarre, that Trump says his transition team was under surveillance and, of course, nothing was found.
Where do you think President Trump got that?
dan friesen
Breitbart.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it certainly wasn't for him.
alex jones
Type it in.
The House head of the Intelligence Board Committee, Nunes, said we've been reviewing the evidence for a month.
There's nothing there, not even phone calls.
Until General Flynn is in there supposedly for the President as the National Security Advisor lining up his phone calls with world leaders.
Flynn is known to work 18 hours a day.
jordan holmes
Oh, okay.
alex jones
Everybody else stands around with their thumbs in their rear ends.
I'm sorry.
dan friesen
I forgive you.
alex jones
This has just become unbelievable.
dan friesen
So, like, this clip looks really bad a week later.
It looked bad then, but it looks real bad now.
jordan holmes
You know the thing that really frustrates me about the whole wiretap bullshit is that Trump, as president, could just declassify the evidence that he was being wiretapped.
dan friesen
100%.
jordan holmes
Instantly.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Which, if there was evidence...
That's a total Trump move, right?
He just declassifies it.
Somebody's told him, hey, you can declassify this.
These people will be under...
dan friesen
It will prove a massive conspiracy against you.
jordan holmes
Yeah, and that's something that you should do.
dan friesen
It would show that the globalists are moving against you.
jordan holmes
And frankly, I would do that if I were Trump.
I would be like, look, there's this massive conspiracy!
dan friesen
Were that true, I would support him doing that.
jordan holmes
Exactly!
It's the only thing that makes sense.
It's almost like if there was some sort of shadowy agency infiltrating the government, we would want to get rid of it.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
Even if it wasn't from Russia.
dan friesen
Yeah, absolutely.
There was that great question in one of Spicer's press conferences where a lady asked, so if Trump has the proof, why is he asking Congress to investigate this?
Couldn't he just provide the proof?
And there was no answer to that question.
jordan holmes
No, of course not.
dan friesen
He's like, I think he's asking that people go through investigation.
jordan holmes
Yeah, nothing.
dan friesen
Just scatting.
jordan holmes
Sean Spicer is a weasel of the highest order.
dan friesen
Yeah, that clip from his press conference at the end of the week when he was talking, someone asked him about the jobs report.
And how Trump in the past had said those were fake.
jordan holmes
They're definitely not fake this time.
We're all lying.
dan friesen
It's just a big laugh.
Like, that's terrifying.
jordan holmes
From the press corps.
Because it's like they're in one big room where everybody knows everybody's lying to each other.
And everybody's just like, there's nothing we can do.
dan friesen
And it's almost like a...
jordan holmes
Although it is kind of funny.
Like, to actually be...
It is pretty funny that he's just caught in a bald-faced lie and he just doubles down.
dan friesen
He's like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, of course.
jordan holmes
Yeah, we lied about him last time, but this time we didn't.
unidentified
Ha!
Ha ha ha ha.
jordan holmes
It's such a knowing, like, we're fucking you.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
And we're not even bothering to lie about it anymore.
dan friesen
It is out of, like, almost bad sitcom-y kind of writing.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
It's that level of performance.
jordan holmes
He might as well have cackled like a witch.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Nah, that would be too on the nose.
He's not the witch type.
He's the bumbling henchman type.
Fair enough.
So Alex goes on to cite a study about attention spans and how everyone in the world is stupid, and then tells some more lies about General Flynn.
jordan holmes
Do you think he gets distracted halfway through the attention span information?
dan friesen
Maybe three quarters.
jordan holmes
Alright.
Well, that's not too bad.
dan friesen
Not too bad, because he's not like us.
He's not lemming.
He's not a dumb...
Dumb, piece of shit, low-information liberal.
jordan holmes
Oh, goddammit, I hate it when we are those.
dan friesen
All the time.
alex jones
For those of us that actually pay attention, for those of us that actually know the narrative, the real narrative, and know what really goes on in government, and knows what was really said, and who have memories.
Remember what Gruber said, John Gruber?
He said, thank God the American people have low attention spans and are so stupid and are low-information voters.
Those are quotes.
I don't have a seven-second...
Attention span.
They've got studies out where children now have less of an attention span than goldfish.
jordan holmes
Neither of those things are true.
Goldfish famously have a five-second memory span, except that's a lie.
They don't.
That's stupid.
dan friesen
Right.
It's sort of junk science a little bit.
jordan holmes
It's made-up fantasy world.
dan friesen
But Alex is actually kind of fair in this...
Sighting of this.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
The study.
I looked into it, and it turns out that the goldfish, I think it's actually like seven seconds is what they say their attention span is.
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
But I don't...
Look, who cares?
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
The truth is that they did some studies on children, and the attention span used to be like 12 seconds, and it's gone down to eight since the advent of handheld phones.
That you can use the internet on, stuff like that.
Technology has made attention spans go down.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
But the same study cited that a byproduct of this also is that our ability to multitask has gone up dramatically.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
So there is a trade-off kind of, and it's kind of what you have to do.
When you're being bombarded by obvious bullshit all the time.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Celebrity culture stuff.
Lies from Alex Jones.
These sorts of things.
You have to not pay attention to things for very long because you're like, okay, no, get that out of here.
Get that out of here.
Move on to the next thing that grabs your attention.
So that is kind of just the neuroflexibility of humans.
In the meantime, because we move on from things really quick, we're able to juggle more balls.
I think that's a fair trade-off.
In terms of our brains.
jordan holmes
You know, I have no idea whether or not there's a valuable conclusion to draw from any of that.
dan friesen
Certainly not related to the mainstream media.
jordan holmes
Yeah, there's no explanation for what's going on there.
dan friesen
Further, I don't think it would be possible that anyone could have planned that, alright, we're going to get these smartphones out and it's going to take 33% Or 25% off people's attention spans.
jordan holmes
You mean you don't think anybody could have planned that?
What about somebody in the 12th fucking dimension?
Did you consider that?
dan friesen
I didn't, yeah.
jordan holmes
They're outside of time.
dan friesen
It's demons, you're right.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
unidentified
Fuck.
jordan holmes
They're doing it all simultaneously.
dan friesen
I always forget about the dimensions.
jordan holmes
You gotta remember the dimensions.
alex jones
If their TV hits.
jordan holmes
Volume.
It's hypotenuses.
alex jones
So, you have to understand, they're targeting the listeners and viewers of MSM that literally...
Do not believe or remember that a month ago, it was on every TV channel, every news channel, every newspaper, everywhere, that they had surveilled Trump, and ooh, Flynn lied.
He talked about sanctions with the Russian ambassador.
And then they finally released the transcript of the New York Times, and it was...
Well, I can't talk about those with you, but I'm sure you know the president wants to have a reset, so...
I'm sure you can bring that up when President Putin and President Trump speak.
That's not discussing sanctions.
Did you discuss the sanctions?
No.
Did you line up a discussion about them?
Absolutely.
See, they play these games.
But in real government, in the military, at those levels, and in law, they train everybody to answer exactly as they're asked because they don't want a bunch of obfuscation.
unidentified
Which is why Flynn got into trouble in the first place.
jordan holmes
He answered exactly as he wasn't asked.
dan friesen
No, you mean Sessions.
jordan holmes
Sessions, that's right.
dan friesen
Yeah, that's what he's getting at there at the end there.
Al Franken had this really specific question.
Did you or anybody have contact with the Russians?
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Which was not what he asked.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
We've been over this a hundred times.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
Alex Jones doesn't understand quotes.
He doesn't understand...
jordan holmes
He doesn't understand hand quotes, air quotes.
dan friesen
It's so fucking frustrating.
jordan holmes
Auto quotes, insurance quotes, none of it.
dan friesen
One of the reasons I kept this in, even though he just said basically the same thing in our last clip, is because I wanted to illustrate a little bit the repetitiveness.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
And how he just says the same things over and over again that aren't true.
jordan holmes
Until they become true.
dan friesen
They become true to your mind if you're not paying attention.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
Because it's just like, oh yeah, I guess, you know.
Flynn did get set up.
I guess Sessions was asked a lawyerly question.
And he wasn't.
jordan holmes
Not even close.
unidentified
Sessions answered a question he wasn't asked and answered it poorly.
jordan holmes
Because he was nervous, because he was lying, because he is colluding with Russia.
dan friesen
I would be terrified.
jordan holmes
To break down American democracy.
dan friesen
I would be terrified if I was in front of the Senate and I was up to some shit.
jordan holmes
Yeah, which again is another reason to respect Hillary all the more because she lied for like 12 straight hours.
dan friesen
That is endurance that Trump thought she did not have.
jordan holmes
Oh man, I don't think any of us thought she had that level of endurance.
unidentified
No way.
jordan holmes
She was fucking stone cold.
dan friesen
Benghazi!
Yeah, great.
jordan holmes
Investigate it!
Servers!
dan friesen
Emails!
Man, it's so great.
jordan holmes
Although now we're doing the same Obama shit.
It's time to just move on from Hillary.
We just gotta let that go.
dan friesen
Totally.
jordan holmes
Although, I will say that Hillary did wiretap this podcast.
dan friesen
Absolutely.
jordan holmes
I think we have a lot of evidence that this has occurred.
dan friesen
Hey, if someone is from the NSA or anybody is listening in, could you edit these episodes for me?
I need to play more Zelda, and quite frankly, it's cutting into my schedule.
jordan holmes
Also, do you guys think we're funny?
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
If you're in the NSA, email knowledgefight at gmail.com.
dan friesen
Do you like us?
Check yes or no.
Letters to the NSA.
Okay, this next clip.
Alex, this is the first of two instances where he sort of gets into talking to Trump on the phone.
And again, he says a little bit more than he probably should.
But then at the end of this, he gets into, again, his inability to understand nuance and the differences between different kinds of meetings that politicians can have.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
It's incredibly embarrassing, but the part about the calls is hot stuff.
alex jones
I'm always speaking to those that may not know they're new listeners.
So that's kind of annoying to regular listeners, but we've got to keep reaching out to just, you know, the new folks that tune in.
You don't have to believe a word I've said here.
You can go back, if you don't have a memory, and look up where they said that they had all these communications out of Trump Tower.
dan friesen
That's really good advice for, like, the guy in Momento.
unidentified
If you don't have a memory, go back and check the news.
jordan holmes
God, what a great movie that would be if the internet was around.
dan friesen
Holy shit.
Oh yeah, if he had a fucking cell phone?
Just memos instead of tattoos?
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Come on, man.
Technology helps everybody.
dan friesen
Yeah, they're really lucky they made that movie at a specific time in history.
Great movie, though.
I like it.
alex jones
It was a bluff.
There wasn't anything there.
It was so thin, it was like vapor.
Okay, yeah, they lined up phone calls for the incoming president with foreign leaders.
He talked to the British Prime Minister, the Italian President, the German President, hundreds of world leaders.
Hell, when I talked to Trump, three days after he was elected president, he said, Alex, you're like number whatever, I forget the number, because I've been talking to world leaders and royalty and business leaders all day, but you're on the list because your listeners are so awesome.
Thank them for their support in this big win, and we're not going to let them down, let them know that.
jordan holmes
Oh, I don't know if that's true or not.
It seems plausible based on what we know, and yet at the same time, it seems equally as plausible that he just decided to make that up whole time.
dan friesen
Here's the tension.
It is plausible.
You're right.
But then on the other hand, we also know that Alex is a liar.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So it's like, oh no, what do we do?
jordan holmes
The push and pull of reality when listening to Alex Jones.
dan friesen
Yeah, so what I do is I just toss the ball up in the air.
I just punt on it, you know?
I don't give a shit.
That call may or may not have happened.
It's not as important as what Alex says his response to that is.
jordan holmes
That's true.
dan friesen
So he says that Trump called and he's like, I wanted to call you, calling royalty.
But I had to call you because your listeners are awesome.
So there's that.
jordan holmes
That's so silly!
dan friesen
It's absurd.
But then here is what Alex's response to that very nice call, I would say.
If it did happen, that's a really nice call.
jordan holmes
That is really nice.
dan friesen
It's misguided as fuck.
jordan holmes
It's a dumb call.
I would have preferred, if it were me and I were a propagandist, I would have preferred a letter with the presidential letterhead, right?
unidentified
Proof.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you could put that on your wall.
Tell your grandkids about it whenever they're, you know, have gills and we can all swim in the water.
dan friesen
Swim up waterfalls.
jordan holmes
Yeah, good times, God damn you.
dan friesen
So, what's great, though, is we're saying that he should send a letter because then there's proof.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Good news is...
There's probably proof.
jordan holmes
Oh, shit!
dan friesen
Because I think that call was recorded.
jordan holmes
Oh, shit!
It has to be!
It would have to be, yeah!
dan friesen
It's part of the presidential record.
jordan holmes
Exactly!
dan friesen
Yeah, so unless you're on the phone with Russia, everything is recorded.
jordan holmes
Everything is recorded.
dan friesen
So here's Alex's response.
jordan holmes
Or unless you're deleting typos on fucking Twitter.
dan friesen
Yeah.
alex jones
And I'm like, sir, they are going to come after you.
They're never going to stop.
I know you think you're going to give folks prosperity and do this, but you've got to go after them.
You've got to get on the offense because they're going to come after you.
jordan holmes
Didn't even say, like, how are you doing?
unidentified
Nope.
dan friesen
Not a thank you?
jordan holmes
Nothing.
They're coming for you, sir.
They're going to eat your bones.
dan friesen
What's great about it is we know he's talking about the globalists.
jordan holmes
Of course.
dan friesen
But what's super fun is because he's clunky with language, it kind of makes it sound like his listeners are going to come for it.
Because of pronoun reference?
jordan holmes
We've got to teach him how to diagram a sentence.
alex jones
I'm not going to get into our private conversation about that, but let's just say the president knew that.
But he's trying to take the ultra-high road.
jordan holmes
Yes!
The president!
alex jones
And he just wants to turn the economy back on.
jordan holmes
Taking the high road.
alex jones
And that's why he should leave Obamacare there for a year and let the Democrats get the blame for it.
jordan holmes
That's the Trump I know!
alex jones
And the $5,000 fines and the rest of it.
But he doesn't want to hurt small businesses and the average person.
So he's just like a stalwart doing the real deal.
dan friesen
So that's actually just Alex literally verbatim dropping Trump talking points.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Like, the idea that he could sit back and watch Obamacare implode, but he doesn't want to do that to people, is directly out of Trump's mouth.
jordan holmes
He did say that, yeah.
dan friesen
That's just him, like...
jordan holmes
And the weirdest thing to me, listening to this, is that I have seen, like, absolutely zero steps towards even pretending to make the middle class's life better.
dan friesen
None.
jordan holmes
No small businesses are improved.
Nothing.
There's zero positive things that he's done for the very people Alex Jones is insisting are the only people he cares about.
dan friesen
If you listen to Alex, he does cite ad nauseum that the stock market is going up.
jordan holmes
That doesn't help middle class or poor people.
Fuck all.
dan friesen
No, his argument is it does, not because you don't have stocks, but all those stocks are businesses that are able to employ people.
If the stock market goes up, those businesses are doing better.
That helps the common man through a trickle-down kind of system.
It's nonsense.
But then he's also...
jordan holmes
I'm sorry!
Every time somebody says trickle-down, I just start...
I have a stroke.
Like, I start barking, I just see flames.
dan friesen
I don't think that's the last time you're going to bark in this episode.
jordan holmes
My dad has told me about trickle-down economics since I was six, and he's been dumb the entire...
Even when I was six, I was like, won't they just keep the money?
And he was like, shut up, boy!
dan friesen
You know that they would because history, number one.
jordan holmes
You ever hear about it?
dan friesen
Because that's what you would do, probably.
jordan holmes
I know I'd wiretap Obama, that's for damn sure.
dan friesen
I've had a couple times bank errors end up accidentally giving me 20 extra bucks.
I keep that shit.
jordan holmes
Yeah, absolutely.
They don't need it.
I need 20 bucks.
dan friesen
Along those same lines, that's what businesses would do.
Okay, so the other thing is that he constantly talks about the Small Business Confidence Index and stuff like that, and people are more optimistic than ever before.
Really?
I don't know about that.
jordan holmes
I literally don't know about it.
Yeah, we all live in our own little liberal bubbles, but I'm trying to read all the conservative news that I can, and even they are not...
Optimistic.
dan friesen
Well, that's smart conservative news that's also controlled by the globalists.
jordan holmes
That's true.
dan friesen
That's what you're failing to recognize.
jordan holmes
Is Breitbart really optimistic?
dan friesen
Yeah.
Super optimistic.
unidentified
Wow.
dan friesen
Yeah, super optimistic.
jordan holmes
About what?
Breitbart?
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Because they're doing a lot better, I'm assuming.
dan friesen
Our stock is going up.
Yeah.
So anyway, here we go.
Let's get back into this.
We're going to get to the point here where he talks about these meetings that are...
He just doesn't understand the difference between...
Like, we talked about with...
People having public and private meetings.
He just doesn't understand that at all.
Anyway.
alex jones
I study everything going on.
Morning, noon, and night.
And Trump is so good, so honorable, it makes me sick to my stomach to see him being rejected by so many dumbed-down people that aren't even part of the power structure.
And then I look at the power structure against him, a bunch of addled, doddering weirdos like Schumer and Pelosi and Maxine Waters that don't know what planet they're on.
dan friesen
Well, you know, it is...
jordan holmes
It is one of those things that, by repetition, he's created a fixed point.
So we can always go back to that area.
unidentified
That's what you're talking about, waypoints.
jordan holmes
Yeah, and if he starts...
Oh, boy, are you getting into Zelda again?
dan friesen
No, no, we talked about this before on the show.
jordan holmes
Oh, did we?
dan friesen
That's the term we used.
jordan holmes
Yes.
But if he does bring in actual evidence that, you know, new stuff, he's got to start that all over again.
dan friesen
Well, he's got to get into the weeds.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
He's got to start all over again, and then that kind of, like, Pavlovian response of, like, yeah, liberals are dumb, has to take forever to rebuild itself.
dan friesen
Right.
You're right.
It is shorthand and cheap.
It's really stupid.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Very bad.
jordan holmes
You know, it's hack, but it's effective, clearly.
dan friesen
At this point, I would like to tease what's coming up at the end of this episode.
We have a return of Eddie Bravo at the end of this episode.
So get excited for that.
Yeah.
Anyway, here we go.
jordan holmes
EB.
alex jones
And they're like, we never have met with a Russian ambassador.
And there's just photo after photo of Schumer and Pelosi.
And all of them meeting with him at public dinners and public events and on their schedule meeting with him three, four, five times, depending on who it is, than they did with Sessions apiece.
Because that's who you meet with when you're at the top of the Democratic Party or the top of the Republican Party.
That's what goes on.
You meet with the Japanese.
You meet with the Chinese.
You meet with the South Africans.
You meet with the Brazilians.
You meet with the Mexicans.
You meet with any big, strong, rich, powerful country.
People can say, oh, well, Brazil or Mexico aren't powerful.
Yeah, they are.
Their people aren't.
Their elites are super rich, some of the most powerful in the world.
The point is that there's constant meetings going on around the clock, ladies and gentlemen.
dan friesen
Yes, there are.
I don't dispute that at all.
People meet with heads of state.
In official capacities.
jordan holmes
I do think that he...
I mean, I'm not sure if he understands the difference in a purposeful way or just that he can't understand the difference.
Because to him, it seems like a meeting's a meeting.
And whatever on the record, off the record you're doing, it's still a meeting, so it doesn't matter.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
And that kind of...
I mean...
If he were to say, you know what, I bet other people have had off-the-record meetings with him before, I would actually be inclined to believe him.
It wouldn't surprise me if Schumer or Pelosi did have off-the-record meetings.
dan friesen
That wouldn't be the craziest thing ever.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
But the reason he can't say that is because then...
Fuck!
I've got to do some investigative journalism and I can't do it.
jordan holmes
Well, but even then...
dan friesen
He would have to try and actually prove a point.
jordan holmes
And if he did say that, though, then he would be purposefully lying about not knowing the difference between the different types of meetings there.
So if he says, you know, it's illicit that Schumer did these meetings off the record, that also means it's illicit that Flynn did these meetings off the record.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
So he can't do that.
dan friesen
That's a really good point, too.
jordan holmes
He's painted into that corner there.
He has to...
He has to not understand those things.
Oh man, that's fascinating.
And even if he did understand it, he has to not understand it in order to protect his guy.
dan friesen
The only way to be safe is being really dumb.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
dan friesen
Oh shit.
jordan holmes
Ignorance is safety.
unidentified
Oh shit.
jordan holmes
Ignorance is avoiding jail time.
dan friesen
So at this point, I believe, if I'm not mistaken, I think that where we go next is a clip after...
These, Vault 7 has come out.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
The CIA data dump on WikiLeaks.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
And Alex, when this happens, he just becomes a new man.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Like, you know how when he lost the Google ads?
jordan holmes
Right.
Lost his mind, screaming.
dan friesen
He went nuts.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
He became a totally different person in a petty, money-grubbing...
jordan holmes
In a televangelist kind of way.
dan friesen
When this Vault 7 stuff comes out, he is like, a weight is lifted from his shoulders, and he believes that he's been proven right about everything throughout his entire life.
Everything that he's said on air is totally true, and that means that everything he's going to say is going to be true, and he has proof that he tells the truth.
And he gets into this.
jordan holmes
That's like a cult leader getting the apocalypse right for once.
Like, can you imagine the look on his face?
dan friesen
Oh, no.
jordan holmes
Holy shit!
This was real?
I was just trying to fuck 12-year-olds!
God damn it!
dan friesen
Yeah, there's a little bit of that.
jordan holmes
That's a pitch for a TV show, isn't it?
The cult leader who's accidentally always right.
dan friesen
Accidental cult leader?
I'm into it.
I'm into it.
Yeah.
So this clip, Alex tells a little bit...
of the story of his past.
unidentified
Ooh!
jordan holmes
I've always wanted to know more about his past.
dan friesen
That's why this is an intriguing clip.
jordan holmes
Other than his interactions with Nazi police officers.
dan friesen
Yeah, that part was, that's not a good chapter.
jordan holmes
Yeah, no.
dan friesen
This chapter is about him as a broadcaster, and I don't think it's true.
I really, really, really don't think it's true.
I can't stress enough, I don't think that this is true.
So get ready for that.
you know, bullshit caps on.
unidentified
All right, I think it's time to go ahead and announce some things here on air to show that the globalists and their minions understand exactly what they're facing.
dan friesen
Also, I just realized, I think we're technically, in his eyes, globalist minions.
I think we are.
jordan holmes
I mean, yeah.
I don't like being called a minion.
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
I would accept henchmen.
dan friesen
I would like to do voiceover for that movie.
jordan holmes
That would be pretty good.
dan friesen
Yeah, get me in that.
jordan holmes
Get me in that Minions 4. Globalist Minions.
dan friesen
I just think that because we're his enemy, philosophically and ideologically, we would obviously clearly have to be in the employ of the globalists.
jordan holmes
I think that is the only way, that's the only conclusion he would draw.
dan friesen
I can't speak for you.
I'm not.
jordan holmes
You're not?
dan friesen
I'm not.
jordan holmes
That's the reason that they got me.
I'm here to watch you.
I'm a globalist minion that's keeping an eye on you, making sure you don't go native.
You're the one studying all this shit.
What if it gets to you?
What if you go full-on apocalypse now on us?
dan friesen
Oh, no.
jordan holmes
Do some Colonel Kurt shit.
dan friesen
I can assure you that I've gone this far down the path.
I'm pretty safe.
I don't think there's any turn that's going to happen.
jordan holmes
I'll get a missive out to Soros.
unidentified
Okay.
jordan holmes
I'll hide it under a bench in a park.
unidentified
Tell old Georgie boy I say hi.
alex jones
Oh.
Globalist forces, dysfunctional saboteur types that want to bring this country down, that want to enslave humanity and be social engineers.
You have been undermined for decades, and the patriots inside our government and others have been quietly preparing for your absolute and complete defeat.
Not your overthrow, but your legitimate defeat.
Because you can't overthrow something that's illegitimate.
You're just being removed.
jordan holmes
That's not how words work.
dan friesen
Nope.
alex jones
A lot of people are freaking out right now because they know this is the broadcast that told you they have kill switches and remote control in all the airplanes for at least 25 years.
All the modern airplanes.
We're the ones that told you they can remote control your car right off a bridge and gave you the documents.
We're the ones that told you over 20 years ago that television sets were watching and listening to you.
We told you they could switch on the microphone in your regular landline, not just your smartphone.
dan friesen
But everyone, they weren't the only ones saying that shit.
jordan holmes
I mean, George Orwell said that shit.
dan friesen
Yeah, granted, he is right that he has been saying a lot of that stuff.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
I think even he's surprised that he was right.
dan friesen
If you take out all of the stuff that he's said that has not come true, that was paranoid bullshit, and only cherry-pick these examples...
jordan holmes
Of when being paranoid...
Yeah.
dan friesen
If you're paranoid about everything, you're gonna be right a couple times.
jordan holmes
Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not always watching you.
You know, that kind of thing.
dan friesen
And these instances are things that were public.
Like, a lot of these things were public.
It's not that he...
jordan holmes
Describe what things were public.
dan friesen
Well, the fact that people could hack into your computer and see you through your camera.
jordan holmes
Hack into your car, like that whole thing.
dan friesen
Yeah, absolutely.
Those things are things that people who study technology have been aware of and had been warning about.
That's not like Alex Jones cracked the case or anything like that.
And I don't think he would even say necessarily that he did.
jordan holmes
Bullshit!
dan friesen
Maybe he would.
jordan holmes
He would totally say that he did.
He would say that the tech people only thought about looking for it because he told them, because he had the globalist information.
The tech people were globalist minions until he woke them with his knowledge.
dan friesen
I red-pilled him.
jordan holmes
Or he might just say that.
dan friesen
This stuff is really hard for us to deal with, I believe.
Because it is a point where I know you well enough to know that we're in agreement about this.
A lot of that stuff about technology is pretty scary.
jordan holmes
It's very scary.
dan friesen
A lot of the stuff that they can do with technology is really, really scary.
jordan holmes
It's bad.
dan friesen
So when Alex is talking against these things and the ability to hack into computers and stuff like that, philosophically, we agree.
That's bad.
unidentified
It could be abused terribly.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
By some sort of autocratic president who wants to be a dictator.
dan friesen
Yeah, who has a slipping grip on power and might want to flex something.
jordan holmes
Yeah, he might want to maintain that grip on power, so all of a sudden we might see...
That would be really fascinating if all of a sudden we start seeing these leaks on every politician that disagrees with him.
unidentified
Because...
jordan holmes
There's got to be stuff.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
And it's definitely been recorded.
Uh-huh.
The problem with what Snowden revealed about the wide netting that they're doing, where they're just saving all of these communications, is that it doesn't help to stop terrorism.
There's too much noise.
You can't find the signal.
Right.
unidentified
But...
jordan holmes
It does help if you are looking for something.
You know you have all this information to go digging through.
dan friesen
It helps as an investigative tool, not a preventative tool.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
So if you want to release some information, you could ruin anybody's life at any moment.
If they have a secret, you can put that out there immediately.
They're discredited or whatever it is.
dan friesen
Now, I haven't read all of the new WikiLeaks dump because it's fucking massive.
jordan holmes
A million pages, yeah.
dan friesen
And there's literally no way Alex could have by the next day on air.
jordan holmes
Or because he can't read.
dan friesen
He might be illiterate.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
There's no way he could skim a couple headlines here and there, which seems to be his modus operandi.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
But there's no way he could have a nuanced understanding of what's in there, what is actually being revealed.
And he just lies about it.
In the time since then, I've...
Read up on assessments and analysis by people who are in information security and these sorts of fields.
And basically, the dump that happened is dangerous because it does illustrate a lot of tools that are at the disposal of the CIA and other intelligence agencies.
It does not indicate in any way that these things were used on citizens.
jordan holmes
I mean, no.
There is no smoking gun, but you get a shiny toy, you want to play with it.
And even if it's not been used maliciously from a government standpoint, some CIA dude has seen your naked pictures.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
He has.
It doesn't matter.
They've shared them.
You know it, I know it.
Dudes are awful.
It's happened.
dan friesen
It's probable.
I'll give you that much.
It's likely.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
But it's not what Alex says.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
He says that it's proof that they killed Michael Hastings by running his car into a tree.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Which is sketchy.
That's a little bit of a weird instance.
jordan holmes
You're gonna need a little bit more than I bet they could.
dan friesen
Right.
He stops just short of saying like the Malaysian planes were instances of this.
He goes so fucking far on this and that everybody's TV is listening to them.
It's like...
jordan holmes
Like in that book.
1984.
dan friesen
He's taking his paranoid fantasies, there's a slight confirmation that these tools and these backdoors are available to people in intelligence, and then using that information as confirmation of his paranoid fantasies that he's been having for years, when it's not confirmation of that.
jordan holmes
And also, they haven't had it for as long as you might think.
dan friesen
Not 25 years.
jordan holmes
Yeah, well, they're talking about the backdoors and shit that they have in iOS and all of those things, and those...
You know, those haven't been around for that long.
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
And they won't be around for longer at all, which is the amazing thing.
Like, for all the weird and awful shit WikiLeaks has done, they did this time, like, say, hey, we're not going to just publish all of the ways to get into the iOS and the Android operating systems.
We're going to give it to them first so they can close those holes.
dan friesen
Oh, they did?
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Oh, that's great.
jordan holmes
They haven't done it.
They are going to, but they're going to wait until Apple and Android closes them.
dan friesen
Okay.
Because that could be a dangerous hacker tool.
jordan holmes
Well, it already is.
The fact that they have purposefully found these and asked them to stay in there and not revealed them is the most dangerous thing.
Like, yeah, I guess if you're in the government, that helps you in a certain way, but that also means they exist.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
And somebody will find them.
dan friesen
Well, anything that exists like that exists for a reason.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And the only reason for that is to bypass your...
Yeah.
So, like, that is, again, the small point in which we agree with Alex.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
All the rest of it, no.
jordan holmes
And one more time, why is it that Obama did all that bombing?
Did they have something on him?
dan friesen
I don't know.
jordan holmes
I want to know.
It seems inconsistent.
I want to know.
dan friesen
Well, apparently...
jordan holmes
Where's my paranoid fantasy at, huh?
How come I don't get one?
dan friesen
I was just reading up that, like, Trump has already dropped more bombs than Obama did in a year.
jordan holmes
Perfect.
Great.
Love me some America.
dan friesen
So that argument is gone.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
He's already gone golfing more times than Obama did in a year.
jordan holmes
Melania costs us, what, some ridiculous, like half a million dollars a goddamn day?
dan friesen
Yeah, something like that.
It's like three million a week.
jordan holmes
Yeah, every single American is paying for her to hate her husband.
dan friesen
Well, that's the part where we get into fantasy narratives.
We don't know if it's because she hates.
Trump.
It seems like it.
jordan holmes
I mean, there's no other...
The only other explanation is...
dan friesen
Barron's gotta go to school.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah.
No, she hates him.
And she doesn't want to live in the White House, which I don't...
Blame her for that.
dan friesen
Kalu Kalei, what a frabjous day!
I just realized that we still haven't gotten to the point where Alex tells a lie about his history.
unidentified
Ooh!
dan friesen
So we still have that to look forward to, but I wanted to unpack that WikiLeaks thing a little bit, and I'm glad that we were able to do it without calling Julian Assange a Russian agent, which we'll get to later.
jordan holmes
Oh, great.
dan friesen
Not today, but later.
alex jones
We told you everything.
And because patriots inside the different agencies were unable to speak out, my show was early adopted, not officially, as a place to dump information.
And so I had NSA whistleblowers, corporate engineer whistleblowers, you name it.
I mean, you've seen for many years the Thomas Drake's, the William Benny's, the technical head of the NSA come on the show.
dan friesen
I don't know what the technical head means.
jordan holmes
Is that true?
dan friesen
What?
jordan holmes
The technical head.
dan friesen
I don't know if he means head of technology or he's technically the head.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I don't think he knows.
unidentified
I have no idea.
jordan holmes
Yeah, the technical head.
dan friesen
He does have these dudes on who have some pedigree and stuff, but they're also, like, we're going to get into one of them later, a guy named Steve Pachenik.
He's a guy who, yeah, he was in the CIA.
He was, like, a psychiatrist within these organizations.
jordan holmes
Was he one of the torture guys?
dan friesen
I don't know, but he's crazy.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
He's nuts.
So these people who Alex gets on, some of them do have history in the service and what have you, but they've lost it.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Or they never had it, which is even scarier.
dan friesen
It's equally possible.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
But they're not like raving street preacher crazy.
They've got it together enough that they can tell a story.
jordan holmes
Like how, didn't Buzz Aldrin insist that there were people on Mars or something like that?
dan friesen
Yeah, there's that pillar that's radiating technology.
jordan holmes
You know Buzz.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So, here we go.
So, that's the beginning of his story.
jordan holmes
He's gotten everything right because the military unofficially decided...
We know we can trust Alex Jones to disseminate this information because no one's going to see it.
dan friesen
Yeah, that would be, like, that's what conspiracy theory communities believe about Alex Jones, is that he's being tricked by intelligence agencies.
They give him one correct piece of information and four lies, basically.
jordan holmes
So they're just playing a game, they're playing two truths and a lie with him?
Is that what's happening?
dan friesen
Well, yeah, the end goal is to discredit Alex.
Essentially, as someone who has the truth.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Look, it's stupid.
jordan holmes
It is stupid.
dan friesen
It's stupid.
jordan holmes
Dumb people are out-dumbing dumb people is what you just described to me.
dan friesen
More or less.
But it's not as stupid as where the rest of this story about his past goes.
alex jones
Former NSA folks from 20 years ago blowing the whistle as well, like Wayne Madsen.
I mean, there's countless great people out there.
So it's not about us getting credit.
It's about people understanding we've been absolutely on target.
jordan holmes
It's never about them getting credit.
dan friesen
Never.
jordan holmes
I don't think we've ever listened to him.
Just once, I want him to be like, hey, give us some credit.
This is pretty good.
dan friesen
He actually does do that a little bit.
He screams.
Well, I mean, like all of the him being censored stuff.
jordan holmes
Because we just hear every clip.
It's like, look.
I know we're amazing, but it's not about us.
dan friesen
It's false humility.
jordan holmes
I know I'm right all the time, but I don't want to toot my own horn.
dan friesen
He's big into the false humility game, but then he's also big into the I'm being victimized game, which are very difficult games to play simultaneously.
Because if you're playing the victim game, it's that I'm awesome and someone else is holding me back.
jordan holmes
Like if you're playing The Price is Right and Jeopardy at the same time, it's very difficult.
dan friesen
Very hard.
jordan holmes
Because you're going to go over every time.
You're just going to do it.
dan friesen
Yeah.
I dare say it's impossible, but somehow Alex pulls off the...
jordan holmes
What is one dollar, Bob?
alex jones
And that's why I was told many years ago that in large divisional groups in the Defense Department, in Defense Intelligence, in the CIA, in the NSA...
In the geospatial group, in all of them, they would call people in in entire meeting rooms and say, this guy's young, he's wild, but he's done the research and has the sources.
He's dead on.
This is the voice of America right here.
jordan holmes
Like Johnny Utah?
alex jones
We don't know.
jordan holmes
He just described Point Break.
dan friesen
So what?
jordan holmes
I think he's wild.
dan friesen
Was Johnny Utah the voice of America, though?
jordan holmes
He was my voice.
Or let's maybe go with Lethal Weapon.
He's Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon.
dan friesen
But do you get what he's saying?
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
The military would call people into boardrooms and be like, Alex Jones is the shit.
jordan holmes
Yep.
unidentified
No!
jordan holmes
No!
What do you mean?
unidentified
No.
jordan holmes
What do you mean?
Alex Jones was Johnny Utah.
He played football.
He was a surfer.
You know, there's so much water in Texas to surf.
dan friesen
Sure.
Absolutely.
jordan holmes
He was an undercover FBI agent, as we all know.
dan friesen
Well, his family is CIA.
jordan holmes
That's true.
His family is CIA.
dan friesen
His dad was a CIA dentist.
jordan holmes
His dad was a CIA dentist.
Yeah.
Jesus.
unidentified
Anyway, here we go.
alex jones
We're killing people.
I came up with Infowar, the way to counter it.
unidentified
Why?
alex jones
We don't have that website.
We don't know.
This guy's doing it all.
He's reverse engineered it.
This is the guy to listen to.
And I obviously didn't want to tell you that.
Even though I knew that 15 years ago.
And this morning, some folks I know got calls and they were like, yeah, we got ordered 12 years ago to listen to Alex Jones.
Seal Team 6, you name it.
jordan holmes
Wait!
unidentified
Whoa!
Whoa!
jordan holmes
Hold the fucking what?
dan friesen
They got ordered to listen to Alex.
It's an order.
jordan holmes
Also, I think...
Does he think it's been the same, like, SEAL Team 6 is the same guys for the past 12 years?
dan friesen
Yeah, absolutely.
jordan holmes
Like, it's just been the same dude?
Like, we got Dan, and he's just been there the whole time?
dan friesen
Now he's 65. Yeah.
But damn, is he good in a pinch.
jordan holmes
Oh, man.
He can fly a goddamn helicopter like a motherfucker.
dan friesen
I don't know how, but he always keeps his feet dry.
Which is important when you're in country.
Yeah, absolutely.
unidentified
It's insanity.
jordan holmes
Who would order somebody to listen to InfoWars?
unidentified
Now, boys, tighten up your boots and listen to Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
You don't even listen to InfoWars that much.
dan friesen
I do.
jordan holmes
Oh, that's true.
dan friesen
That's true.
jordan holmes
Well, Soros ordered you to, so there is that.
dan friesen
That's right.
I got my marching orders from old Georgie boy himself.
Discredit this man.
That's what George Soros said to me.
jordan holmes
That's what he sounds like, yeah.
dan friesen
Sounds like Palpatine.
His fake laugh is still more convincing than Alex Jones's.
Anyway, he still hasn't gotten to the depths of this fake narrative about his past.
alex jones
We resisted.
We stood up.
Infowars is on target.
And if people want to know some of the conversations I've had with Trump, it's been about that.
It's amazing.
I can't believe the intelligence community loves you so much.
You've been dead on for 20 years?
Wow.
Yeah, I'm just now learning about all this.
dan friesen
So two things.
The intelligence community that Trump hates loves Alex so much, which is bizarre.
jordan holmes
Well, Trump is just surprised by how much they love Alex.
dan friesen
But again, it goes back to this narrative, there's a split in the intelligence community.
jordan holmes
Well, the patriots within the intelligence community, they love Alex Jones so much, but the pencil necks, who as we know...
The chicken neck.
Sorry about that.
dan friesen
Pencil pushing chicken necks.
jordan holmes
Regional insult action.
dan friesen
It's a Coke soda thing.
jordan holmes
Now, they, with their wooden American flags, just refuse to bow down to President Trump.
dan friesen
Absolutely.
And they do not like Alex.
alex jones
No.
dan friesen
But then the other thing there...
jordan holmes
Even though they were ordered 12 years ago to listen to him.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Maybe they did, and you're like, this guy's full of shit.
We're in the intelligence community.
We know how to fact check things.
And this guy is a liar.
But, like, the other thing at the end is that, like, he says that in his phone calls with Trump, he's like, I'm just starting to learn about these things, which undercuts the narrative that he's been an Americana sleeper cell since he was 20. Well, he's just starting to learn about the real depths of the globalism.
jordan holmes
They were speaking from the same playbook, but Alex was getting the information straight from the NSA for 20 years.
dan friesen
You may be right.
jordan holmes
Trump has just been being the good man, you know?
If he got this information...
Great, man.
If he got this information, he would be compromised.
dan friesen
That's a good point.
Also, I don't have a clip of this, but there's a point where Alex goes into this story about getting some classified documents when he was younger.
Wait, what?
jordan holmes
Like the never-ending story?
Like he goes into a library and finds this magical classified book?
dan friesen
As I recall, the way he says he got them was some guy pulled up in a car and gave it to him.
So this guy gives him these documents, and he shows it to his dad, and he's like, oh, yeah, we gotta burn these.
His dad is like, we went out on my dad's land.
He's got some great land in Texas.
We just burned them.
Because his dad is like, they're trying to set you up with this classified information.
If you get found with this, you're gonna go down.
And so they burned the documents.
jordan holmes
Well, I think that's even a sideshow, because the only way to really get rid of those documents is to boil them down into silver fillings.
dan friesen
We all know that.
jordan holmes
We all know this.
How do you get rid of a body?
Turn it into fillings.
Everybody knows this.
dan friesen
Turn it into non-fluoride toothpaste.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
Dentists are the only true serial killers.
dan friesen
But dentists, that's just his cover.
Anyway.
alex jones
If you want to know, Trump's learning about all this right now.
About how they can remote control planes, how they can crash cars, how they can turn on microphones and cameras, all of it.
And people were asking, how did I know this 18, 19 years ago?
It was because there were a lot of engineers in Austin that were very wealthy that had been part of this that saw me on air talking about it and gave me even more intel.
jordan holmes
It's a good thing they were very wealthy.
That way we know we can trust them.
dan friesen
Absolutely.
We love the rich.
jordan holmes
Yeah, thanks for pointing that out, Alex.
dan friesen
But also, the other idea there, if you really unpack what he's saying, is like, I got in the air and started yelling about crazy bullshit I had no proof of.
jordan holmes
And it turns out it was all right.
dan friesen
And then people gave me proof.
Okay, that's not how this should work.
That's not journalism.
unidentified
That's just, you lucked out.
dan friesen
You hit some sort of lottery.
And again, I don't believe the story.
jordan holmes
Even within the realm of us believing.
The story is unbelievable.
dan friesen
Yeah, exactly.
More to the point, if it's true, which it's not, it's not good.
It doesn't paint him in a good light.
I was a crazy dude, y 'all.
Someone confirmed my crazy.
jordan holmes
There's no win!
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
But it's so delightful.
In a sea that we're in of kind of boring, subdued Alex.
This kind of thing is delicious.
It's just such a nice oasis.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
alex jones
And Bill Clinton ordered people to surveil me.
He ordered from our intel people to beat me up.
To break into my house.
Yeah, but they couldn't do that.
jordan holmes
They were chicken necks.
They couldn't beat him up.
dan friesen
They weren't real men.
jordan holmes
No, no.
alex jones
The decision was made before Bill Clinton even left.
The military said, we're not doing this to Alex Jones.
So they persecuted me up front and then decided, this is a patriot.
What the hell are we doing?
Because they were surveilling me and turned me loose.
So I've been in the jaws of this system by the grace of God.
And it's just the right place, the right time, family background, being from Texas, people knowing I'm for real, that we've been leaders for at least 15, 16 years.
Hardcore inside the government because other people couldn't talk about this stuff.
And they would say, you listen to Alex Jackson.
It's not a conspiracy.
He's dead on.
This is the intel in the whole program.
Listen to Jones.
He's got it all.
Because I've done the research.
I've read the globalist books.
I'm not that special, folks.
You go read.
Carol Quigley's books, and you go read Bertrand Russell's books, and you go read Brzezinski's books, and you read Galton's books.
Some of the stuff's 170 years old.
Most of it's 60, 70 years old, 30, 40 years old.
It's all there.
I just read all the books.
jordan holmes
What's all there?
alex jones
People act like they're professors.
They act like they're intel analysts.
They act like they're researching.
They're not.
They're just trying to act cool.
I did it.
And I'm not bragging.
jordan holmes
Yes, you are!
I love how he goes immediately from the intelligence community was ordered to listen to me because I'm so right.
I'm the only one who's real.
I'm the greatest broadcaster in history.
I'm not saying this to tell you how great I am.
alex jones
I'm not bragging.
jordan holmes
I'm not bragging.
I would never brag.
dan friesen
False humility.
jordan holmes
I'm just letting you guys know this is...
God.
The delusions of grandeur within that little clip right there.
That's amazing.
dan friesen
Yeah, it's next level shit.
jordan holmes
That's incredible.
dan friesen
And we were getting to, like, talking over that clip a tiny bit, was he doesn't say what it is.
jordan holmes
No!
dan friesen
It's all in there.
jordan holmes
Yeah!
dan friesen
You haven't read these books.
jordan holmes
What books?
What's in the books?
I've just been reading the globalist books.
Some of them are 140 years old.
Is he then saying that the technology to watch you through your TV is 140 years old?
dan friesen
More or less.
Or at least the plans to make it close.
jordan holmes
12th Dimensions.
Okay.
dan friesen
We're back to that.
jordan holmes
We're back to the 12th Dimensions.
You're right.
That's like some J.K. Rowling shit where you can just wave your hand with 12 Dimensions and everything makes sense again.
dan friesen
Yeah.
We have to also put a really fine point on this, that he is so making the point that he's done the research, he's studied these things, and he's right about everything.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Not to brag, though.
It's by the grace of God that he's right about everything.
dan friesen
But more importantly, we've consistently shown that he doesn't know about the things he reads.
Like, that's the theme of this show, essentially, is basically Alex Jones doesn't understand.
jordan holmes
Alex Jones can't read.
dan friesen
Right.
He has no reading comprehension skills.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
So for him to sit here and brag about, like, I've read all these books, I don't trust your ability to read those books.
jordan holmes
Especially since he read them when he was six.
dan friesen
I don't want to read these books, to be honest.
I don't have the time.
I got a lot of Zelda to play.
So I'm not going to go and read these books.
jordan holmes
That's the new running theme of this podcast.
I'm sick of debunking Alex.
I got Zelda to play.
dan friesen
I guarantee if I read these books, they wouldn't say what he thinks they say.
I am positive of that.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Anyway, this clip isn't over.
I think he brags a little bit more very humbly.
alex jones
So I told you, big leaks are coming.
Giant leaks are coming.
And I said Trump doesn't want to have to release all this because it can really hurt the country and hurt our intelligence gathering capabilities overseas.
But it's all being done illegally by rogue groups to enslave the country, to blackmail, to have servers acting like they're in Russia, attacking things, which the intel community knows.
Because they've got systems above that that watch it.
unidentified
What?
alex jones
And they know they've been trying to set Trump up with Russians.
And that's all come out in the news.
It's up on Infowars.com right now, Dr. Corsi.
dan friesen
That's not the news.
alex jones
Vault 7. CIA can stage fake Russian hacking to undermine Trump.
CIA kept Russian cyber attack techniques handy for false flags.
jordan holmes
Wait, hold on.
alex jones
And they did it to Trump.
unidentified
What?
alex jones
But the intel community then looked in Congress at the claims and they were fake.
And so they kept saying Trump's got a secret server.
Yeah, they were running one right out of a van outside the Trump Tower trying to spoof his IPs.
And then they rolled the whole thing up, folks.
dan friesen
No, they didn't.
jordan holmes
So he's saying that in WikiLeaks they revealed that the CIA specifically points out that they have the tools to perform false flag Russian operations against Trump.
dan friesen
No.
Well, no, not really.
jordan holmes
I think that's what he said, though, right?
dan friesen
That's what he's trying to say.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
The reality is what they showed is that the CIA does have some...
Russian origin malware.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
That they have confiscated or found.
jordan holmes
And Russia has some of our malware.
unidentified
Absolutely.
Yeah.
dan friesen
100%.
But the thing is, he then makes the leap to all of this stuff is what was used for the Russian hacking.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Which is absolutely not true.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
There are good resources that I've found that I don't fully understand, but I understand enough.
To know that these malware things that are in the WikiLeaks are not the specific ones that are the code that is found in the Russian hacks.
They don't match up.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
So the idea that it was a false flag thing proven by these WikiLeaks is 100% not true.
The bigger issue is that Alex, having presented himself as someone who talks to Trump on the phone...
Drops this little bit where he's like, Trump didn't want to release this stuff, which implies...
jordan holmes
That Trump released it through WikiLeaks.
dan friesen
A little bit.
jordan holmes
Oh, man.
dan friesen
Because the globalists won't leave him alone.
unidentified
Now, if that's at all true...
jordan holmes
And we do know that Flynn communicated with Guccifer...
dan friesen
Roger Stone did.
jordan holmes
Roger Stone did.
That's right.
unidentified
And had foreknowledge of the WikiLeaks hacks.
dan friesen
And again, just because we're using the term sort of loosely, I want to make it clear that we don't think WikiLeaks hacked things.
There's a separation of...
jordan holmes
They get the information, and there's a very strange...
Power structure.
The hierarchy there is pretty ludicrous.
dan friesen
I just noticed that we were saying WikiLeaks hacks a bit.
I wanted to make clear that we're not saying that.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
They just get it and throw it out there.
So Stone has connections, knows in advance the DNC hack is coming.
dan friesen
Yes.
jordan holmes
So we know there's one connection there.
dan friesen
Lies about it and then later admits it.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Because...
What was his defense there?
That it was just like, well, everybody knew it was coming.
dan friesen
Everybody talks to Guccifer.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that was his defense, right?
The New York Times talked to him, so that means it's fine if I do.
dan friesen
There was that, and then also, like, oh, it was a benign conversation.
That sort of thing.
jordan holmes
What?
What conversation can you have?
dan friesen
He went on Alex's...
jordan holmes
You're Roger Stone.
Roger Stone does not have any benign conversation.
dan friesen
No, sir.
jordan holmes
He is either kicking ass shirtless or talking to hackers.
dan friesen
You know he has a tattoo of Nixon's face on his back?
jordan holmes
That's not true.
unidentified
It is.
jordan holmes
That's not true.
dan friesen
You can find pictures of it.
jordan holmes
No, no.
I refuse to...
I don't want to live in this world, okay?
Yes, Nixon.
You just proved that there is no point in any of us continuing.
unidentified
Nope.
jordan holmes
Wow.
dan friesen
So, Roger Stone is a notorious liar and a Republican dirty trickster for, like, the last 40, 50 years.
Like, so the idea that he's above board is just incredible lunacy.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Anybody who would take him at his word is a fucking idiot.
But we do know...
jordan holmes
Alex Jones takes him at his word.
dan friesen
They seem to be best friends.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So, the fact that he has these contacts with WikiLeaks and with Guccifer 2.0, it's not benign.
It can't be.
jordan holmes
Of course not.
dan friesen
There's something going on there.
Now, I don't know what it was.
Maybe it was just information digging or something like that.
That's still fucked up.
jordan holmes
People know what it was.
dan friesen
Someone does.
jordan holmes
Someone has to.
What?
Why can't we just get...
Why is it that everything points to one possible conclusion?
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Or...
It's all a weird system of happenstance.
So it's either there's collusion there...
Or it's like a drawing room farce where everybody's walking into different doors and following, and then they come out of a different door and they look at each other like, I didn't know you were there!
dan friesen
It's like a...
jordan holmes
It's an episode of Three's Company!
dan friesen
Basically, or it's like Murder on the Orient Express, where everybody kills the guy, but none of them knew.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
dan friesen
Everybody on this train independently killed this guy.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it's Clue.
There's multiple endings for this shit.
But some people have to have enough information by this point.
There's no possible way, there isn't enough information to go one way or the other.
dan friesen
I think Roger Stone might be close to getting a real polonium poisoning.
I think he's in danger.
jordan holmes
The ambassador's dying.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Which even then, they could have just died.
unidentified
Could've.
jordan holmes
That's possible.
dan friesen
They're all connected to the Dirty Dossier.
jordan holmes
And it's a lot of them.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Very soon and close together.
dan friesen
Eight this year, I think.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
But they were all old people.
unidentified
Exactly.
dan friesen
Not super old, but old enough that it's...
jordan holmes
It's a reasonable thing.
Somebody knows, and we don't.
And it's so frustrating.
Every day I wake up angry because it's like, just fucking...
To me, right now, this is like Chinese water torture, where every day there's just another little drip, another drip.
Like, I just want them to blow up the world or leave.
dan friesen
You just wish that the Band-Aid would get pulled off.
jordan holmes
Yeah, just end it.
Nuclear war, fine at this point, just so I don't have to listen to your bullshit anymore.
dan friesen
Yeah, the tension needs to be released.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
I mean, I have faith that it will.
jordan holmes
You think so?
dan friesen
I think we're heading towards disclosure.
But people have been saying that about aliens for years.
Anyway, Jordan, it's time.
jordan holmes
Which, in specific, Alex Jones has said about Trump in the past, right?
dan friesen
Yeah.
Well, he's suggested it.
He's never outright said, Trump will tell us about aliens.
jordan holmes
But he's...
It wasn't the first...
Like, he was talking with Rogan, right?
Where he's like, oh, the first thing I would ask is, where are the aliens?
Tell me about the aliens.
Yeah.
dan friesen
Yeah, but I think Alex is more interested and more very overt about he's going to give us immortality technology.
jordan holmes
That's true.
dan friesen
So I don't know about that.
jordan holmes
Alex does want to live forever.
dan friesen
Speaking of Rogan, it's time for us now.
jordan holmes
It's time for some Eddie Bravo.
dan friesen
It's time for us to get to the star fuckery portion of the show.
Over this last week, Alex has been going into overdrive in terms of booking guests who are celebrity in nature.
jordan holmes
Anything to distract.
dan friesen
He had some military folk on who were a little bit scary in their commitment to Trump.
jordan holmes
Oh, no.
dan friesen
In a way that felt like it wasn't just because he's the president.
It felt very weird.
But then, beyond that, he's had a string of celebrity guests this week.
He started the week on Wednesday.
He had Eddie Bravo in studio, which we're going to get into.
And then also, at the end of the week...
He had been teasing this for the entire week.
He had Jesse James, motorcycle impresario, and former reality TV star, and Nazi.
jordan holmes
Wait, what?
Jesse James is a Nazi?
dan friesen
You don't know about that?
jordan holmes
I did not know about that.
dan friesen
Now, I can't say that he's a Nazi.
jordan holmes
I avoid celebrity everything as much as possible.
dan friesen
I can't say that he's a Nazi.
But he doesn't look good.
jordan holmes
He's got some Nazi in him.
dan friesen
He was wearing a Nazi hat and put two fingers over his top lip, indicating sort of like a Hitler mustache.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
And Sieg Heil in a picture that was released in 2014, which is just...
jordan holmes
Could be goofy.
Isn't that...
No, I think I do remember that one because the internet got all...
Oh boy, we got him now!
unidentified
Right.
jordan holmes
Oh, we're gonna be mean to him for a day until we ignore him again.
dan friesen
Now, I can't say that that proves anything because people take dumb pictures all the time.
jordan holmes
People are dumb.
Especially rich, entitled white people.
dan friesen
Now, here's my question.
jordan holmes
They're gonna do dumb shit.
dan friesen
Why does he have a Nazi hat?
That's number one.
jordan holmes
Who...
Why don't you have a Nazi hat?
dan friesen
That's a great question.
Number two.
This is my other piece of evidence that I think Jesse James is a Nazi.
His business is called West Coast Choppers.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
And their original logo was very similar to the Nazi Iron Cross.
jordan holmes
Hmm.
dan friesen
Almost identical.
unidentified
Oh.
dan friesen
He then, a couple years later, changed his logo and it was basically the Nazi eagle.
It's just that bird.
jordan holmes
So he's just cycling through imagery now?
dan friesen
And he calls that new logo the Warbird.
jordan holmes
Oh, I don't like that at all.
dan friesen
No.
It's not proof, but man, it doesn't look good.
jordan holmes
It doesn't look good.
dan friesen
Now.
jordan holmes
It's a coincidence.
dan friesen
Another piece of coincidence.
jordan holmes
Oh, boy.
dan friesen
After he got divorced from Sandra Bullock, he started messing around with this lady named Michelle Bombshell McGee.
Who is a bit of a Nazi.
jordan holmes
Wait, he was married to Sandra Bullock?
dan friesen
Yeah, that's crazy.
jordan holmes
Is Sandra Bullock a Nazi?
dan friesen
I don't know.
She divorced him and adopted an African-American baby, so I don't know.
Wait, am I just thinking of the plot of The Blind Side?
jordan holmes
Yeah, I don't know what just happened right there.
What just happened?
dan friesen
I don't know.
So this lady, Michelle McGee, also known as Bombshell, she has a tattoo on her leg on the back of her thighs.
WP.
Which is notorious in circles as white power.
She has claimed that it stands for wet pussy.
jordan holmes
I mean...
unidentified
I'd go with either one of those.
dan friesen
She was quoted as saying Jesse and I had a conversation about it and he says a lot...
jordan holmes
That's a new conversation.
dan friesen
He says a lot of his friends have the tattoo.
A wet pussy tattoo?
Or a white power tattoo?
jordan holmes
I mean...
dan friesen
Doesn't look good.
A lot of my friends have white power tattoos.
jordan holmes
Which friends?
dan friesen
I don't know.
Then, another piece of evidence that Michelle Bombshell McGee is a Nazi.
On Facebook, she's listed Mein Kampf as her favorite book.
jordan holmes
She's a Nazi!
That's a Nazi!
dan friesen
And that does not stand for wet pussy.
jordan holmes
Yeah, no, that's Mein Kampf.
Although that would be a way better book.
dan friesen
I feel like...
jordan holmes
I don't know if he would have sold as many copies at the time, but...
dan friesen
I've read not the entirety of Mein Kampf, but I've read a bit of it.
And if it's your favorite book, it's not for the literature.
It's not a well-written book.
jordan holmes
Yeah?
dan friesen
The only thing to take away from it is hatred of the Jews.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
That's really the only point.
jordan holmes
You know, I've been told in the past to read it, and every time I was like, nah, I don't think there's any...
I don't think there's any reason to.
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
I think we're good.
dan friesen
It's much like me going back and reading these globalist books.
We don't have time for that.
jordan holmes
Yeah, no.
Life is almost over now.
dan friesen
Yes.
jordan holmes
I'm so glad that now that I know I only have five years left.
dan friesen
Yeah.
When Michelle McGee got a divorce, when she was suing for custody of their children, her ex-husband said that she had child block magnets on the refrigerator that would spell out white power.
jordan holmes
She's a Nazi.
dan friesen
Then...
jordan holmes
Jesse James is a Nazi.
dan friesen
Jesse James also was formerly married to Janine Lundemuller, who's that porn star who was on the cover of the Blink-182 album, Take Off Your Pants and Jackets.
jordan holmes
Right, right.
dan friesen
I think that was that album.
I can't remember their fucking dumbass title names.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So they got divorced, and then she got remarried to a guy named Jeremy Aikman, who's a multiple-time felon and an admitted skinhead.
Yep.
Jesse, James, and Sandra Bullock fought to revoke Linda Mueller's custody of the child that he and Janine had together, citing her marriage to Aikman as evidence of negative environments for children.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
That's a good citation.
jordan holmes
I don't think she should get custody.
dan friesen
All of these, again, don't...
Like, dead to rights prove anything.
But if you're hanging around with that many Nazis...
jordan holmes
You're gonna look like a Nazi!
dan friesen
It's not good!
jordan holmes
You're a Nazi!
dan friesen
I don't think that necessarily Jesse James is himself an actual Nazi.
But he's not a Nazi.
jordan holmes
Because it is not the 1940s.
dan friesen
He's not a reasonable person, though.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
Because if I were around...
jordan holmes
Did he instead become very reasonable while being on Alex Jones' show?
unidentified
By comparison, yes.
dan friesen
I did not have time to pull this clip.
jordan holmes
Because he didn't do a Nazi salute?
dan friesen
Well, he actually just seems like a kind of chill dude.
unidentified
Oh, okay.
dan friesen
He actually comes off pretty decent.
In the same way that Eddie Bravo comes off pretty decent, too.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
But, like...
He does do one thing that I think is amazing.
And that is he tells Alex repeatedly to stop being a sore winner.
Which I think is great.
And it really disrupts Alex's flow.
jordan holmes
This is the first time Alex has gotten some shit thrown in his face, huh?
dan friesen
At least in the last months of watching this.
jordan holmes
Since we've been around.
dan friesen
And he can't shout him down because he's Jesse James.
Notorious real man.
And celebrity.
jordan holmes
And Nazi.
dan friesen
Alex has to kiss his ass.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Because he's a star fucker.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
So, it really throws off the interview, and by the time he does tell Alex to stop being a sore winner, it just, like, Alex can't get his bearings back.
And he ends up just being like, what kind of cars do you got?
It becomes just a...
jordan holmes
Which is what it should have been in the first place, Alex.
You dropped the ball on that one.
dan friesen
It doesn't fit the narrative of the Alex Jones show, though.
So, I'm going to play a couple of clips of Jesse James, and then we will get to the real fun, which is...
The Adventures of Eddie Bravo.
But this one, actually, Jesse, isn't in.
It's just Alex lying real hard.
alex jones
Ronald Reagan met him and never did this and wrote a letter back saying, I felt like I met the president, not the other way around.
And there's people that have known him 30 plus years and they knew.
dan friesen
He's talking about Trump.
That didn't happen.
jordan holmes
What?
dan friesen
That didn't happen.
jordan holmes
Reagan met Trump?
dan friesen
Yeah, Reagan met Trump.
jordan holmes
Reagan didn't meet Trump, did he?
dan friesen
He did.
When Trump was much younger.
There's a picture of them shaking hands.
And that quote that I thought I was meeting the president, or that's how I felt because he had such a powerful presence.
He never said that.
jordan holmes
Never said it.
dan friesen
No.
I did some research on it.
I tracked it down.
Alex is quoting a meme.
jordan holmes
Oh!
Okay.
I was waiting for you to say Alex was quoting Alex, because that seems very much in his move.
dan friesen
He has said this before in the past.
unidentified
Of course.
dan friesen
It is a thing he keeps bringing up.
But that has no basis in reality.
It just showed up in a meme, and people have just accepted that it's true.
jordan holmes
The same way three million undocumented immigrants voted in the last election, that whole thing.
dan friesen
Yeah, absolutely.
So, I just love that.
I love when you just...
See definitive evidence of someone.
jordan holmes
Just whole cloth making shit up.
dan friesen
Not doing the research.
Not understanding what he's reading.
It would take a 20 second Google search to find the origin of that meme.
It's so easy.
The only thing that's strange, and it even surprised you, is that Reagan did meet Trump.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Like, that is weird, and because it's so weird, and there's a picture of it, that's why someone created this meme.
jordan holmes
Yeah, of course.
dan friesen
So this clip is a little bit longer, but...
I'm going to cut it off in the middle.
jordan holmes
Why wouldn't you instead make the meme about when the Clintons were hanging out with Trump?
And instead it's like Hillary 20 years ago said, wow, it felt like I met the president.
That would be a good meme.
dan friesen
Yeah, but Reagan's dead.
jordan holmes
Reagan is dead.
dan friesen
So you can lie and he can't rebut it.
jordan holmes
Well, I mean, in his later years he couldn't rebut it either.
dan friesen
That might have been when we met him.
jordan holmes
So it might have been true.
Mainly because Reagan thought he was meeting FDR.
dan friesen
He can walk again?
jordan holmes
Holy shit!
dan friesen
So I want to point this out.
Last week, Donald Trump did tweet about how Russia has run over America.
And he put run over in quotes.
This is incredibly important because that's Alex Jones slang.
He talks about powerful people running over weaker people.
That's specifically Donald Trump using Alex Jones slang.
jordan holmes
I mean, it is in the popular consciousness, though.
I've said, I don't know if I've ever said it, but I know it exists.
I know it's a saying.
dan friesen
It does, but Alex says it all the time.
jordan holmes
And he did use quotes, didn't he?
He did, which is suspicious.
Mainly because Trump doesn't know where quotes go.
dan friesen
No, not at all.
jordan holmes
In our history of Trump tweeting, I don't think he's used quotes correctly at all.
dan friesen
Ever.
So let's get back to Jesse James here.
He starts out this clip really dumb and then gets really aggressive about protesters, which I don't approve of.
jesse james
Why would Russia hack our election?
jordan holmes
For what?
alex jones
It's saying you didn't have the initiative to go vote for him, Jesse James.
You're a Russian robot.
dan friesen
So that's stupid.
Alex thinks that the idea is that the Russian hack means that no one voted for Trump.
That's stupid.
That's not what anybody's saying.
unidentified
Nope.
dan friesen
And then Jesse James trying to be like, why would Russia do it?
Like you said, a million reasons.
jordan holmes
So many reasons.
dan friesen
Putin notably hates Hillary Clinton.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
They have a documented history of him really not liking her.
And her being tough on them in terms of sanctions.
jordan holmes
I mean, who doesn't have reasons to hack the American election?
If I could hack it, I probably would.
dan friesen
It'd be fun.
I know I'd leave a trail.
jordan holmes
Yeah, well, you wouldn't be very good at it.
dan friesen
Neither would I. I stick to the things I'm good at, like freeing elephants in the land of Hyrule.
So anyway, back to this clip.
alex jones
I'm a Russian robot.
jesse james
They're just in denial.
You know what?
And I get it all the time.
And this is why I don't have anything really to come on here to talk to you about.
It's really that special, I think.
alex jones
Oh, come on.
jesse james
No, but I like to come on here.
Just as a voice of the blue-collar Americans.
jordan holmes
Yeah, Jesse James, a blue-collar American.
dan friesen
He's worth $100 million.
jordan holmes
Who was once married to Sandra Bullock, you know, like blue-collar Americans are.
dan friesen
Went from Sandra Bullock to a Nazi stripper.
What are you doing?
jordan holmes
Hey.
We can't yet prove that Sandra Bullock herself is not a Nazi stripper.
dan friesen
That's a fair point.
jordan holmes
We haven't got the documents yet.
It may be in the dirty dossier.
dan friesen
Again, I'm going to punt on this investigation.
I don't want any part of it.
jordan holmes
That would be the funniest.
If we broke that Sandra Bullock was a Nazi stripper, that'd be a solid scoop.
dan friesen
If we start screaming about it, maybe some rich Chicagoan will give us information.
Anyway.
Like, I get it.
I get what he's saying about being blue collar.
He works on cars.
He has these outward trappings of appearing blue collar.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
But he has a hundred fucking million dollars.
And he's probably worth way more than that.
jordan holmes
Really?
dan friesen
Yeah.
You know why?
jordan holmes
He has all that money?
dan friesen
West Coast Choppers is incredibly successful.
It's a huge motorcycle company.
And, they don't really get into this on the show, but he has NRA branded shirts.
What?
Yeah, so he makes millions of dollars selling NRA clothes.
unidentified
No!
dan friesen
It's super fucked up.
jordan holmes
Why is it that everybody's connected with murder weapons?
dan friesen
I don't know.
Maybe because they're Nazis.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Nazis really do know how to do their gun shit.
dan friesen
They also talk about these allegations that he's a Nazi at some point, and he's like, look, I survived a media tornado, and everyone says all this ugly shit.
It's like, yeah, but that's because there's ugly shit.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Like, if you didn't have a Nazi stripper girlfriend that you were banging around with...
jordan holmes
And I don't think that stripper is a negative part of this at all.
dan friesen
No, not at all.
jordan holmes
That it's perfectly fine.
I think we should just...
Cut the stripper part.
dan friesen
But that makes it interesting.
jordan holmes
And Nazi girlfriend still is interesting to me.
I think you can get rid of stripper and Nazi girlfriend still works on me being interesting.
dan friesen
I think the media narrative, though, of going from Sandra Bullock to a stripper is compelling for the media.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
I agree with you.
We shouldn't be...
jordan holmes
For tabloid journalism bullshit.
dan friesen
We shouldn't be judging sex workers.
jordan holmes
But going from Sandra Bullock to Nazi is just as interesting, I feel like.
dan friesen
Literally could be a lateral move.
jordan holmes
Our investigation is ongoing.
dan friesen
And then all these other connections to Nazis, your iconography being Nazi in origin, you can't be mad that people started drawing connections.
In the same way that this whole thing with Trump being investigated, you can't be mad about that.
There's a reason to investigate this.
jordan holmes
If you have a German last name and your grandfather has a lot of Nazi memorabilia, maybe...
dan friesen
If you have their fillings.
jordan holmes
Maybe he's just really fascinated by World War II memorabilia, or maybe he was a Nazi.
dan friesen
Yeah, and maybe it's worth looking into.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
dan friesen
Because the difference really matters.
jordan holmes
And getting your grandfather up on international court.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Get him into a Nuremberg trial.
dan friesen
Take this old man to the Hague!
jesse james
People that think that, you know, because I'm filthy dirty every day and because I work, I weld and I make stuff and I'm a mechanic, they think I'm an idiot.
alex jones
They're arrogant assholes.
jesse james
And that's the way they think about the majority of this country.
alex jones
I agree.
We're on the same page.
Tell the elites who've got a dwindling audience, who lie about our president, who's truly delivering like nobody's ever done in our modern history on what he would say he would do.
I mean, it's truly incredible.
It's messianic.
What do you want to say to the people right there in camera four that think because you actually built your own business and made hundreds of millions of dollars doing it, billions total, and gross, that you're an idiot because they're a bunch of do-nothings?
What do you want to say to the so-called elites?
dan friesen
Alex keeps trying to get him to do shoot promos on the globalists.
He keeps trying to be like, what do you want to say to these people?
jordan holmes
Right.
So he can cut it and put it in the...
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And Jesse James is very resistant to it, to his credit.
He's just like, look, we won the election.
He's getting to work and he's going about his business.
Let's just live our lives.
Why do you have to yell at everybody all the time, Alex?
jordan holmes
And I don't think that he's an idiot.
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
Like, I don't think, I mean...
dan friesen
I don't think he's a genius.
unidentified
No.
jordan holmes
But I don't think he's an idiot either.
Yeah, no.
In the same way, and I know this is a weird equivalence to make.
dan friesen
I think he's a Nazi.
jordan holmes
Don't think he's an idiot.
But I do think he's a Nazi.
I don't think he's an idiot.
Most Nazis weren't idiots.
unidentified
Nope.
dan friesen
That's how they pulled off something that horrible.
jordan holmes
I think it's the same way where people think the Kardashians are idiots.
And to me, I mean, maybe that's...
Maybe.
But also they turned not...
Being able to have skills into the most profitable skill you can have.
dan friesen
Absolutely.
jordan holmes
Like, they did make this whole weird empire.
They're not stupid.
dan friesen
Some of it could come down to luck.
jordan holmes
Or they're just ridiculously lucky, yeah.
dan friesen
Some of it could come down to luck, or like a Machiavellian leader, like the mom, like Chris, could be incredibly smart and everyone's going along for the ride.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it could be that.
dan friesen
I don't know, but you're right.
That point is salient in terms of like, you can't be an idiot and create...
Something that huge.
jordan holmes
I mean, you can.
dan friesen
It's very hard.
jordan holmes
It's happened before.
dan friesen
Also, it takes an incredibly smart person to play an idiot.
So the fact that they present themselves as dumb is kind of almost an indication that they're not that dumb.
jordan holmes
I think you're getting a little bit too far down the rabbit hole there.
unidentified
I don't know.
jordan holmes
They could just be dumb.
Like, George, like, W, you know, he could be this brilliant mastermind.
Or he could just be a dumb idiot with a great...
Pedigree of...
dan friesen
I think he's like Jesse James.
He's probably a high version of the middle.
You know, like, I think the reason that George W. Bush seems dumb is because we're used to smart, well-spoken, articulate, composed people.
jordan holmes
So it's our perception of what the traits of a smart person is.
dan friesen
Or of a president.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Which is now completely demolished.
jordan holmes
No, there's no positive traits to presidents anymore.
dan friesen
He looked dumb in comparison to our image of president, but he wasn't that dumb as a whole.
jordan holmes
No, I think you're probably...
I don't know.
dan friesen
And it's the same with Jesse James.
He looks dumb because...
Of images we have in our head.
jordan holmes
Because of so many reasons.
He looks dumb for so many reasons, though.
dan friesen
Those tattoos aren't helping.
jordan holmes
Not just images we have in our head.
He really cultivates a dumb image.
dan friesen
Yeah, but that also helps him sell shirts for the NRA.
jordan holmes
That's true.
dan friesen
So, I mean, it's...
Anyway, who cares?
He's not dumb, though.
alex jones
No, but I mean, listen, I get...
I do get stuttering angry.
And I get what you're saying.
Hey, be cool.
Don't let him get to you.
You're already awake, Jesse.
You've already been through this.
I'm pissed off that we've got the best numbers in this country in decades and somebody working their ass off for the people and every major newspaper I know of says they want to see him assassinated.
I'm not looking for trouble, but it makes me want to get aggressive.
dan friesen
That's not in the papers.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
That's not in every single newspaper.
Unless Alex is just not aware of any newspapers.
And then that sentence is logically accurate.
I don't think...
jordan holmes
Well, we know he's aware because he has printed out thousands on thousands of articles.
dan friesen
That's a good point.
jordan holmes
And read all of their headlines.
dan friesen
Yes, that is true.
So, my argument doesn't hold water.
jordan holmes
Nope.
dan friesen
He's just lying about assassination threats.
jordan holmes
Yep.
alex jones
I'm sick of this crap!
This guy's working for me and my family, and I'm getting pissed about this!
jesse james
I'm not pissed about those people.
I think it's funny.
I think it's funny that they've whipped themselves up into a big tizzy over the working class people working hard and accomplishing.
They all worked hard and voted and got this to Guy Elect.
alex jones
They're losers.
jesse james
And now he's working hard for them.
You know, let them cry.
You know?
I'm not...
dan friesen
Hootie and the Blowfish.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I was about to point that out.
Oh, boy.
unidentified
Let them cry.
jesse james
Gonna be a sore winner.
There's nothing worse than a sore winner.
alex jones
I agree, but I'm just pointing out, they said they had him wiretapped.
jordan holmes
I agree.
Now I'm going to go be a star winner.
alex jones
Then they say he's a liar a month later.
jesse james
That's what these people do.
They lie.
alex jones
I know, but...
jesse james
You know?
alex jones
What do you think happens, God forbid, they do assassinate Trump?
jesse james
Never going to do it, man.
We have the best protection, the best elite, and it's the same thing.
It's a trunk full of ping pong balls.
The only people...
jordan holmes
What's a trunk full of ping pong balls?
dan friesen
That's a metaphor he made earlier in the interview.
He's talking about how if you have a trunk full of ping pong balls, that's not going to add anything to your car.
It's not going to really hurt your car.
It's just nothing.
That doesn't do anything.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
He's saying that people tweeting threats...
jordan holmes
I guess that has a logic to it.
dan friesen
It does.
It's not great.
jordan holmes
It's not a great metaphor.
dan friesen
It's not the best I've ever heard, but it does track.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
It makes sense to the point he's trying to make.
But yeah, I like his perspective.
Shrug it off.
These are assholes.
And people who are threatening to assassinate the president or saying he should die, I think a lot of those people are assholes.
jordan holmes
Probably.
dan friesen
Who just want attention or want to be shocking.
And they're not the people who are in positions where they actually could.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
I definitely wouldn't vocalize any of my inner thoughts.
dan friesen
I think you already have.
jordan holmes
No, no, no, no.
dan friesen
I think you might have on this podcast.
jordan holmes
No, I doubt it.
I don't think if you go back through our records you'll find any incriminating things that I've said.
dan friesen
Smash cut to a clip of you saying Trump should be hung in the streets.
jordan holmes
I'm just, I mean, according to our laws.
I'm not saying we should lawlessly hang him in the streets.
dan friesen
Of course not.
jordan holmes
I'm just saying that according to the Constitution.
And the laws we have.
It is well within our legal rights to hang Trump in the middle of the street.
dan friesen
I don't fully disagree, but I also don't agree for safety's sake.
jesse james
People that are coming out on Twitter and saying like, oh, I think Trump should get killed.
They're only doing that to give themselves a little bit of fame.
It's still illegal.
alex jones
I agree, but it's still illegal.
jesse james
Did you see what Billy218 said?
He said he would kill Trump.
Oh my God, retweet that.
He deleted the tweet.
unidentified
Probably someone actually called that.
Can we see who Billy328 is?
alex jones
We're not actually blaming Billy328.
jesse james
I bet there is one.
jordan holmes
It's fluff.
jesse james
It doesn't mean anything.
You know what I'm saying?
alex jones
Jesse, I 100% agree.
You've coined the term.
The MSM is not the fake stream.
They are the false reality media.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
alex jones
Like you said, you said they're a false...
jesse james
It's a business.
They're trying to make money.
alex jones
But they could do that telling the truth.
jesse james
If they ran 18 hours of programming every day on all Trump's accomplishments and everything he's done in the first 50 days and all that...
Is that him?
alex jones
I think he said 328.
That's not...
jesse james
Billy 218.
dan friesen
They pulled up an egg Twitter account on their main screen of Billy 218.
jordan holmes
That is the best investigative journalism they've done ever.
So far, yeah.
They immediately found out that if you Google something, it will appear.
dan friesen
But they got the number wrong.
He said Billy 328, and they pulled up 218.
So they even fucked that up.
unidentified
You know what?
jordan holmes
You know what?
I'm going to give them a pass.
I think we're going to give them an A for effort there.
They did Google something this time.
dan friesen
B for effort.
jordan holmes
All right, good point.
alex jones
Billy, I'm sure it's great.
Go ahead.
Sorry.
jesse james
But if they ran a whole show of that, no one would watch it because it's not a train wreck.
alex jones
I'd watch it.
I mean, if it was real data, I mean, all this real data is coming in.
I mean, I get it, I guess.
Well, I guess that's what our audience is.
jesse james
That's what happens if you shut your phone off and your computer off to all that stuff.
alex jones
It does drive me crazy.
I'll be in a great mood.
I come in here and, like, look at 100 articles.
I'm going to jump on.
So you just ignore all this crap?
jesse james
Yeah, like, hey, I was hyper-connected to it before the election, and now that we won, I can sit back and, like, you know what?
I know I have my friend working his ass off in the White House for people like me and people that think like me, and I know it's the first time because there hasn't been a president in there in a long, long time that really cared about the little guy.
alex jones
Jesse James, I totally agree with that statement.
jesse james
You know, it's a sense of...
I don't know.
I don't have to worry about it anymore.
dan friesen
Interesting.
jordan holmes
Jesse James just said some straight nonsense, and he sounded like the most brilliant person.
dan friesen
Absolutely.
jordan holmes
Compared to Alex Jones' rambling rage and just flecks of spittle coming out of his mouth.
Jesse James sounds like a genius.
dan friesen
He sounds completely reasonable for the most part, but he is using a little bit of dog-whistly shit.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Like the idea that now that Trump's in, we don't have to worry about stuff.
jordan holmes
Right.
We don't have to worry about something that rhymes with booze.
dan friesen
It's the first time we've had a president in a really long time that is this way.
It's not...
jordan holmes
Since Woodrow Wilson!
dan friesen
It's not about...
jordan holmes
We haven't had an anti-semi-president since Woodrow Wilson!
dan friesen
Well, an outwardly anti-semi-president.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you're right.
We did have Nixon.
dan friesen
There's no indication that it holds water at all that the presidents haven't cared about poor people or the middle class.
jordan holmes
No, in fact, there's a lot of evidence that...
Well, I mean, maybe the last president who cared about the poor and the middle class was FDR.
dan friesen
We've cared intensely.
jordan holmes
Well, and then you got LBJ.
Although whether or not he cared is a whole different story.
dan friesen
That's true.
jordan holmes
He's an interesting case study.
dan friesen
Let's not unpack it.
I apologize.
jordan holmes
But there is one thing I did do, which is look up both Billy 328 and Billy 218.
dan friesen
Interesting.
Great investigative journalism.
jordan holmes
I googled them so fast.
Didn't take that long at all.
And they were all Twitter eggs.
Of course.
And they were the same thing.
They don't follow anybody and they have three followers max.
It reminds me of that thing where there was an article about how there are these Russian Twitter bots.
Not necessarily even Russian ones, but there are Twitter bots that are lying dormant that they will eventually use to kind of make certain topics trend.
And put them into the national consciousness.
And those were such, like, so suspicious in their, oh, these just exist.
Nothing going on there.
dan friesen
Yeah, it's super fucked up.
I don't remember the exact number, but it was a shockingly high percentage of Twitter's total accounts are fake.
jordan holmes
The Cambridge Analytica guys.
Those guys.
dan friesen
Which we don't want to talk about.
jordan holmes
No, because they'll find us.
If I'm afraid of anybody, it's them at this point.
dan friesen
They know what I'm doing in that Zelda game.
They're all up on it.
jordan holmes
Fucking Zelda.
dan friesen
Now, it is time to get to our main man, Eddie Bravo.
jordan holmes
Eddie Bravo.
dan friesen
Eddie comes in and, again, seems like a really good-hearted dude.
Also seems very dumb.
But, like, he comes in and I could not help but smile seeing Eddie Bravo in the Infowars studio.
It's great.
You watch the show every day.
jordan holmes
You're on.
dan friesen
This is amazing.
Good for you, Eddie Bravo.
jordan holmes
You're happy for him for reaching the heights of his potential?
dan friesen
I am.
jordan holmes
I mean, good for him!
dan friesen
But it goes south really fast.
jordan holmes
Of course.
dan friesen
So then they start talking about Pizzagate, and Alex Jones accidentally walks backwards and stumbles straight into an addition of Ya Busted.
jordan holmes
God damn you!
alex jones
He's a tough guy, man.
jordan holmes
I told you not to do that!
unidentified
And he's set.
dan friesen
So this starts by them talking about Ted Gunderson, who's apparently an FBI guy who may or may not have been poisoned.
jordan holmes
Ted Gunderson?
I would poison anybody with that name, period.
dan friesen
It's like out of a bad script.
jordan holmes
Oh, did you meet Ted Gunderson?
No, I poisoned him because that name exists.
dan friesen
It's like a name you'd see in a script where we'd be like, we'll come back on this.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
We gotta get punch-up going on here.
alex jones
Poison, I'm not allowed to get into it.
They poisoned three other people.
jordan holmes
And he was in the FBI for 27 years.
alex jones
He was the head of California.
unidentified
Yes.
And you could...
I am the head of California.
dan friesen
Also, I fucking love that, like, I'm not allowed to talk about this, but they poisoned three more people.
jordan holmes
Well, he's not allowed to talk about it.
You just did!
It's classified information!
dan friesen
You 100% just did.
jordan holmes
I mean, you're allowed to say that three more people just got poisoned, but do you know what's crazy?
That's always true.
dan friesen
You know...
jordan holmes
Every...
This is a true statistic.
dan friesen
Three people have been poisoned.
jordan holmes
Every time that Alex Jones says three more people have been poisoned...
Three more people have been poisoned.
dan friesen
Could be accidental poisonings, overdoses.
jordan holmes
Just statistically impossible not to be true.
dan friesen
Yeah.
But I think a smarter way for Alex to say things would be, I can't get into the details, but.
And then say a generalized, broad statement.
As opposed to, I can't talk about this, but.
And then saying the exact same thing.
jordan holmes
Yeah, but it's more fun if he does it that way.
dan friesen
But it makes him look like an asshole.
jordan holmes
He is an asshole.
dan friesen
Fair point.
eddie bravo
There's many videos of Ted Gunderson, former FBI chief, talking about not only the gigantic pedophile ring that's going on nationally and internationally, but he was talking about the Satanism that's involved as well.
alex jones
Well, that's the deal.
You're crazy for talking about that.
Look, a regular gang, whether it's white supremacists or Mexican gang, you've got to go rob a liquor store.
You've got to hit an old lady in the head with a gun.
You've got to shoot somebody.
You've got to kill a rival gang member.
Those are rituals.
unidentified
Yeah.
alex jones
Earn your bones.
unidentified
Yeah.
alex jones
You know, I earned my bones when you were with cheerleaders, you know, from The Godfather, from Shub.
jordan holmes
Yep.
Again, all you know is movies.
dan friesen
Yes.
jordan holmes
Your knowledge of gangs is all movies or whatever.
dan friesen
And The Godfather, Mario Cuso, right, was the name of the guy who wrote that?
He was widely discredited.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
He made all that shit up.
dan friesen
All that shit up.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
That stuff is not accurate to gangs or mafia life at all.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
So even...
Even Alex Jones' fake source was also lying about...
Okay.
dan friesen
Which is to be expected.
jordan holmes
It is a piece of...
We're three levels deep on lies.
dan friesen
But The Godfather is a piece of fiction.
jordan holmes
Yeah, and it's a great one.
dan friesen
But purporting it as reflecting reality is cockamamie.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
It's nonsense.
Anyway, it gets worse.
alex jones
That's not enough.
That's just showing you'll kill somebody and they got dirt on you.
You've got to hurt kids, and it's not just molest them.
dan friesen
That's going to be an out of context.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's a good one.
You've got to hurt kids.
dan friesen
And I'm not just talking about molesting.
So here we go.
alex jones
The highest levels, they kill them.
unidentified
And they do something about baby blood, right?
alex jones
Well, they terrorize the kid, then they drain their blood off while they pump all their hormones out.
And then they drink all the adrenaline and the essence.
jordan holmes
Who builds that machine?
dan friesen
Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
That's a very specific engineering requirement there.
dan friesen
Oh, Alex Jones.
Someone's at the door.
jordan holmes
Don't do it.
dan friesen
You busted.
jordan holmes
Don't!
No!
dan friesen
So, what he's talking about there is something that...
Came across in conspiracy blogs.
That's the only way he could have ever come across this information.
jordan holmes
Okay, so they kill kids.
dan friesen
Yes, but they have to terrorize them and rape them first in order to get their adrenaline levels high.
jordan holmes
You could just do that with...
I mean, like, have them run.
dan friesen
You could do that.
jordan holmes
Just get a treadmill.
dan friesen
Scary movies?
jordan holmes
Have them run, yeah.
You don't have to terrorize and abuse them.
unidentified
No.
jordan holmes
We're going to see who can run a mile the fastest.
That's a really great way of doing it.
dan friesen
Just do that.
jordan holmes
Do you have any more questions?
Why am I giving advice to some random-ass pedophile rink?
Right.
dan friesen
Some hypothetical pedophile rink.
jordan holmes
Guys, let's sit down and let's rework this whole plan.
dan friesen
So, on the conspiracy boards...
This narrative came up to explain Pizzagate and these organizations.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
What they do is that they torture and terrorize these kids, then kill them and drink their blood because the adrenaline, as it's called, adrenochrome, will have been released.
unidentified
What?
jordan holmes
Who?
What bullshit made up nonsense word is that?
dan friesen
It is a real thing.
jordan holmes
Adrenochrome?
dan friesen
Adrenochrome.
It is a chemical compound with a molecular formula C9H9NO3.
jordan holmes
Oh, that's right.
Paul Simon wrote a song about it.
Adrenochrome.
dan friesen
It's produced by the oxidation of adrenaline.
The derivative, who cares about the rest of this wacky information about...
Chemistry that we're not going to be able to understand.
jordan holmes
Oxidization of adrenaline.
dan friesen
Adrenochrome is mentioned in The Doors of Perception by Aldous Huxley as a product of the decomposition of adrenaline that can produce many of the symptoms observed in mescaline intoxication.
Also, author Hunter S. Thompson mentions adrenochrome in his book Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
The adrenochrome scene also appears in the novel's film adaptation.
So basically it's something that's referenced in fiction a bit by hallucinogen liars.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Hunter S. Thompson.
Bad journalist.
jordan holmes
No!
dan friesen
Good writer, bad journalist.
jordan holmes
Great writer.
Terrible journalist.
He made shit up half the time.
dan friesen
So, the first thing I want to point out is that...
jordan holmes
Is there any evidence anybody's ever done adrenochrome?
dan friesen
We're going to get to it.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
So, the first thing...
jordan holmes
Why do I even ask?
I know you've got me covered here.
I know you've got me covered.
I trust you.
dan friesen
I appreciate your attempt to lead me, but there's a point that I need to make first.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
There are, quote-unquote, Pizzagate researchers.
Who just throw whatever they can at the wall and see what sticks.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And one of the things that they came out with was a completely unsubstantiated, unverified, unsourced theory about adrenochrome being what the killing of the kids was all about.
And it was because adrenochrome, if you've never done drugs, you might think that it creates a crazy hallucinogenic euphoric state.
And it sounds like it might.
Because if it's something that you could only get by drinking kids' blood, then it seems like that better be a great high.
jordan holmes
It better be really good.
dan friesen
Now there's a couple problems.
jordan holmes
Otherwise, you could just, like, do some coke.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
Like, that would be fine.
That's still illegal.
dan friesen
That's euphoric.
jordan holmes
That's still illegal.
Like, you could just do a...
You don't even have to do a pedophile ring.
Just get pictures of everybody doing coke.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
That would be fine.
That would accomplish the goal.
dan friesen
And then you earn your bones.
unidentified
Yeah!
jordan holmes
That's all you gotta do.
dan friesen
These theories are widely discredited.
jordan holmes
Oh, I can't imagine how.
dan friesen
Even most of the people in the Pizzagate world don't look at this as valid.
jordan holmes
Yeah, because it's dumb.
dan friesen
I'm gonna get to why.
First, before we get to why, because this is a real you busted moment.
jordan holmes
You have a Cheshire grin.
dan friesen
I love that you hate that name for the segment, so that's why I'm going to keep it around.
You bastard.
unidentified
So...
dan friesen
When Alex was talking about Pizzagate on the Joe Rogan show, he brought up, like, vampirism and stuff like that.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
But he's like, it's a spiritual vampirism.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Now you're literally talking about vampirism.
jordan holmes
That's literal vampirism.
dan friesen
You're talking about vampires.
jordan holmes
Well, vampires drink blood.
These guys are drinking adrenochrome.
dan friesen
Through the blood.
jordan holmes
That's spiritual vampirism.
dan friesen
I don't think that there is a machine that allows you to extract the adrenochrome from blood.
jordan holmes
All right.
So, you got the kid.
dan friesen
Yeah.
unidentified
Right?
jordan holmes
You terrorized him.
unidentified
Uh-huh.
jordan holmes
He's all ripe.
unidentified
Uh-huh.
jordan holmes
You put him on the machine.
If we're going to entertain this theory, what kind of machine are we talking about?
Is it going to look like an MRI machine?
dan friesen
I'm picturing it being like the clockwork orange chair.
unidentified
Okay.
jordan holmes
See, I saw the Spanish Inquisition.
They got him on the rack.
That whole thing, right?
dan friesen
You're probably more right than me.
It creates more surface area.
jordan holmes
In terms of this completely fictitious nonsense, you're absolutely right.
I am correct.
And then you...
Do you slowly drain the blood, or do you gotta do it fast?
dan friesen
You probably would have to do it fast, because adrenaline would deplete.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
So now you got all the adrenaline in the blood, which you would not have gotten unless the kid were terrified.
dan friesen
Yep.
jordan holmes
That makes sense.
You couldn't just go in and get their fucking adrenal glands.
unidentified
Nope.
jordan holmes
You gotta get it from the blood.
dan friesen
Or take an epi shot.
jordan holmes
Yeah!
unidentified
Or something like that.
jordan holmes
Or just watch the movie Pulp Fiction.
They have adrenaline and fucking...
Okay.
dan friesen
Here's the deal.
jordan holmes
The deal is this is dumb and they made it up and it's fucking...
dan friesen
Adrenaline can be synthesized in other ways than through blood.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
You can get the exact same chemical compounds in different ways.
jordan holmes
Cheaper.
dan friesen
Much cheaper and you don't have to kill kids.
jordan holmes
You don't even have to kill one kid.
It's not even like we're reducing the number of children killed with chemistry.
No, it's just like getting rid of all the children killing.
dan friesen
So there's a lot of websites where people do trip reports, where they take substances and then they report back on what the experience was like.
jordan holmes
Because thank God for the internet.
dan friesen
Sure.
I found a number of them where people took adrenochrome.
unidentified
Oh yeah!
dan friesen
And they are universally...
This is not a good buzz.
Not that it's a bad buzz, but that if you didn't know that you were taking something, the effects are so mild that you would not really even know that you're tripping on anything.
You wouldn't know that you'd taken a substance unless you knew.
You couldn't be dosed with it, I guess is what I'm saying.
jordan holmes
So there's really no high, then?
If you couldn't know there was a high, if...
You didn't know you were high.
dan friesen
Right.
Or it's just so mild that it could be a flu symptom.
jordan holmes
Yeah, like that's the junior higher smoking oregano.
Like, I'm so fucked up, man.
Like that whole thing.
dan friesen
Basically, yeah.
There's a psychosomatic high to it.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's what it sounds like.
dan friesen
So then I looked into it a little bit deeper, because I thought, well, maybe this guy on this trip report was taking a low dose.
Maybe that's a thing where if you take a bunch, it's...
jordan holmes
Maybe he only took a quarter of a kid when you need to take a half.
It's like with edibles.
You've got to make sure you get the dosage right, and every one is different.
dan friesen
And you've got to know who sold you that kid.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Because some people give you...
unidentified
Some people try to give you...
jordan holmes
You've got to research your kid dealer.
dan friesen
Because some kids are really hard to scare.
unidentified
And that's going to really cut into your time.
You don't want to get one of these brave kids get a bad buzz.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
No, I think it's the opposite.
You want to get a really brave kid because then you'll gain his strength?
I don't know.
dan friesen
My computer crashed and I lost the Word document that I had that had all these calculations.
But I'll redo it.
I'm just going to be a little bit vague with the numbers because I don't have all the specifics.
I found...
The amount of adrenochrome your body can produce.
Your maximum level.
Because you can't just create...
jordan holmes
Ingrown man or child?
dan friesen
Child.
jordan holmes
Child.
dan friesen
I think I went with a 10-year-old as sort of a midline.
That's a reasonable.
The amount that a 10-year-old child could create in their body is the equivalent of nothing, basically.
So if you were to kill that kid, drain all of his blood.
And then take the adrenochrome out of it, you would need to kill, I think, 300 kids in order to get enough for that bad buzz that that guy on that trip reported.
jordan holmes
No wonder they needed an entire pizza restaurant.
unidentified
That's the only thing that makes sense.
jordan holmes
They needed at least two or three Chuck E. Cheeses operating at the same time in order to get that.
Can we just stop and think for just one moment how surreal this entire fucking conversation is right now?
dan friesen
It's bizarre.
jordan holmes
I never in my life...
Thought I would get to a point where somebody told me exactly how much adrenochrome you could drain from a child's blood.
unidentified
And then...
jordan holmes
That is the weirdest fucking thing.
And this is how crazy the times are right now?
I was listening to you for like 10 minutes going, you're like, oh, this is interesting.
Let's see how this goes.
We live in an insane world where that's the least crazy thing I've heard today.
dan friesen
Well, that's why it's important that we embrace this craziness and just like...
jordan holmes
Follow you down the rabbit hole of how much blood?
dan friesen
It's easy to get really horrified and shocked because abuses of children is a real thing, and it's horrible.
It's awful that it goes on.
And it would be easy to be like, I don't want to, this is awful, or succumb to horror when looking at these sort of topics.
The perspective that I'm coming from is they're not drinking these kids' blood.
This isn't happening.
jordan holmes
How is that a question that we would have to answer?
dan friesen
Clearly, Alex Jones is fucking talking about it, so someone believes it.
jordan holmes
That's crazy!
dan friesen
And all these blogs were pitching this as a rationalization for it, so, I mean, it's not like no one believes it.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
But then, the idea, the very idea that in order to get a weak, mild, bad buzz, you'd need to kill 300 kids, makes this...
The stupidest fucking thing in the world.
jordan holmes
Counterpoint!
Alright?
Globalists have been around, according to Alex, for hundreds of years.
dan friesen
Yes.
jordan holmes
Perhaps they have evolved separately from the human race in order to process adrenochrome at a much more efficient rate than your calculations would suggest.
dan friesen
Now it's game over.
I mean, if you're going to say that, then yeah, okay.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
unidentified
Great, okay.
dan friesen
Now it's Dan Friesen, you bust.
Now the difference is that I found science, and you're speculating about an alien race.
jordan holmes
And I founded creationism just there.
I believe that's what I did, right?
dan friesen
I think so.
So yeah, Alex is an idiot.
He really does believe that.
Sort of thing.
And the idea of it being a metaphorical psychic vampire...
Yeah.
He can't fall back on that.
jordan holmes
No, there's no hiding behind fakeness there.
dan friesen
Can you imagine how hard it would be to drink the blood that's contained in one person, let alone 300?
jordan holmes
No!
I can't imagine that!
That's not a thing I can imagine, because I don't even know...
I don't want to know how hard it is to just drink a glass of human blood.
dan friesen
I don't think you can.
I think it has, like, Ipecac-type qualities.
unidentified
Yeah!
dan friesen
Like, you end up throwing up.
jordan holmes
At the very least, it would bum you out real hard.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
So, that is, you know...
Great, Eddie Bravo was able to pull that out of him.
I really appreciate that, even though I think he...
I think...
jordan holmes
Eddie Bravo, stealth hero.
dan friesen
I don't think that Eddie realized how stupid what Alex was saying was, because he doesn't call him out on it.
jordan holmes
I don't think Eddie realizes how stupid what he's saying is.
dan friesen
Yeah, he does get to one point where, again, Eddie is going to be a hero.
But here we go.
jordan holmes
I love Eddie Bravo as the accidental hero of every one of these things we do.
Anytime Eddie Bravo shows up, he's like Mr. Magoo.
That's what Eddie Bravo is to me.
He's blind, stumbling around, and just makes it through just fine.
dan friesen
Also, little known fact, a little trivia, Eddie Bravo is married to a coat rack.
alex jones
And we're not allowed to give you this on Facebook.
jordan holmes
I was so expecting Nazi stripper and instead you got me.
dan friesen
You know what?
jordan holmes
I got busted.
You busted.
alex jones
And we're not allowed to give you this on Facebook.
Because this is fake?
No, because we told you 12 years ago they were using cameras on your computer to watch you?
It's because we're on target.
dan friesen
So he had a couple things that he posted on Facebook that were taken down.
And I'm not sure the details of it.
It could be a false flag thing getting erased, like he did it to himself.
I don't know.
jordan holmes
That makes as much sense as anything else.
dan friesen
Yeah.
I don't know.
He's using it as a really harsh example of censorship.
And as the details emerge, we'll assess it as, you know...
jordan holmes
As is our...
Stated objective?
dan friesen
Once there are more facts, be able to deal with this.
jordan holmes
Once we have a better chemical composition of what he's saying.
dan friesen
But he takes it as like, look, they're saying that they're censoring us because we're liars and fake.
The truth is they're censoring us because we're too right.
jordan holmes
We're too...
dan friesen
Now he gets back to how he talks to Trump on the phone.
alex jones
Folks, you think the President of the United States just calls regular people?
You think...
jordan holmes
Nobody takes calls from regular people at 2am.
alex jones
I mean, I'm not gonna...
dan friesen
We have to get back to this, because...
jordan holmes
Sorry.
dan friesen
He fucking loses his train of thought so hard.
jordan holmes
Okay.
alex jones
You think the heads of...
I mean, I'm not gonna...
I shouldn't even get into all this.
dan friesen
Why couldn't he just have said the heads of state?
Like, that's what he was getting to.
jordan holmes
Because he's not even gonna get involved with it.
dan friesen
That's ridiculous.
jordan holmes
He knows the heads of state don't want him to reveal?
Something?
dan friesen
I guess.
jordan holmes
I don't know.
dan friesen
It's ridiculous.
It's absolutely ridiculous, but not as ridiculous as this next clip, where Eddie Bravo...
unidentified
Bravo, Eddie.
Fucking...
jordan holmes
What are you doing to me?
dan friesen
That's our new segment.
jordan holmes
What are you doing to me?
dan friesen
Eddie Bravo?
jordan holmes
Bravo, Eddie.
Are we late 90s Conan?
What's happening right now?
dan friesen
We might be.
But in this one, Alex wants to talk about something, and Eddie brings up a topic that clearly Alex doesn't want to talk about.
jordan holmes
Okay.
alex jones
I grew up and had some family that had been in covert action in the CIA, like killing people.
And all I'd ever heard was, you know, no, the government brings in the drugs, they kill people, you don't want to join them.
And so I had that view.
But over the years, the people inside that know all this now have the Internet, they have us, they have the people.
And so I've learned that, like, major SEAL teams, in fact, the most elite SEAL team, but Army, Delta Force, you name it, years ago, They would come in and order them to listen to InfoWars.
And I would hear this like, you know, 15 years ago and go, oh yeah, you're right.
dan friesen
I'm saying that now.
alex jones
Yeah, they're telling Delta Force, listen to me, it's all confirmed now.
And so they said, there was no one else covering this.
They said, you listen to Alex Jones.
He knows what's going on.
And that's just a fact now.
You know, the media never runs with this because they go, what are you talking about with Trump?
Well, he talks about how the intelligence community really loves me.
So here we are saying, They're the enemy.
William Benny was the head of the NSA.
He actually ran it.
Not the director, but the technical head.
He's a patriot.
He comes on all the time.
They're the ones that exposed it, Eddie.
In fact, I was told by Pchenik, who was high-level CIA, used to run actual overthrow of governments.
He said, oh, the next month they're going to release even more on the CIA to discipline the top of the CIA.
dan friesen
He's talking about Steve Pchenik, who I brought up earlier.
He's a guy who comes on Alex's show with some regularity.
He's the guy...
jordan holmes
He wasn't the director of the CIA.
dan friesen
No, it's William Benny.
jordan holmes
He was the technical head.
Oh, Benny was the technical head.
dan friesen
Steve Pachenik was a psychologist, psychiatrist within the CIA.
And he's also the source of the counter-coup narrative that Alex has about how rogue CIA agents were running a silent, peaceful coup against Hillary Clinton.
jordan holmes
And now they're trying to run the counter-counter coup.
dan friesen
Yes.
jordan holmes
Gotcha.
dan friesen
So that's where all that information comes from, from the wacky mouth of Steve Pchenik.
alex jones
Okay.
dan friesen
And this is where Eddie is about to show some real valor.
alex jones
The CIA released that on the CIA.
Now, Dr. Steve Pchenik, totally legit, right?
Oh, yeah.
unidentified
High level?
alex jones
I mean, when he comes on the show, it's in, like, Italian newspapers, and then they send, like, you know...
FBI to his house and he's called before federal courts.
jordan holmes
I don't understand.
alex jones
When he releases stuff, they threaten him with national security arrest.
That's how real he is.
dan friesen
Dr. Steve Pachanek, and you got some heat for this.
unidentified
This is kind of changing the subject a little bit.
eddie bravo
Dr. Steve Pachanek, on your show, said that no kids died at Sandy Hook.
That it was a homeland security drill that they passed off as a real event.
alex jones
He says that.
jordan holmes
Oh, shit!
dan friesen
Bravo, Eddie.
jordan holmes
Oh, shit!
Bravo, Eddie!
dan friesen
He got in there and he brought that up.
jordan holmes
Somebody's busted!
dan friesen
The thing is that if anybody else were to bring this up, Alex would scream at them.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
But because he's a star fucker, he's like, oh, we gotta discuss this.
unidentified
Okay.
alex jones
And I've been hit really hard with it.
I can't prove it one way or the other.
I know it.
jordan holmes
Yes, you can!
You can prove it one way or the other because one way is proved!
You can!
That's how you prove things!
dan friesen
But that's the most cowardly conspiracy theorist argument.
jordan holmes
I can't prove it one way or the other.
dan friesen
That's so fucking lame.
jordan holmes
That is a chicken neck thing to do.
dan friesen
Very chicken neck.
alex jones
Anderson Cooper's standing up there and turns and his whole nose disappears.
I work in TV.
jordan holmes
Why are you shitting on Anderson Cooper's nose?
What did Anderson Cooper's nose ever do to you?
dan friesen
Well, let me explain what he's talking about.
There is a video clip of Anderson Cooper covering Sandy Hook stuff, and it does appear that his nose disappears.
But their theory is that it's green-screened.
And that it's produced news.
jordan holmes
Because his nose is green?
dan friesen
It doesn't work that way.
No, I don't know.
jordan holmes
That's not how things work.
dan friesen
I've done some looking into it and trying to find arguments for why it...
jordan holmes
For anything?
dan friesen
Right.
And everybody's like, oh yeah, it's proof.
Media's fake.
Everything's fake.
But then there's other people who are like, well, I work in video production, and that could just be, I believe what it was, it's called like a P. frame rate.
Okay.
unidentified
And there are little technical glitches that can happen when you're recording.
dan friesen
Okay.
unidentified
And it's not evidence of a blue screen or anything.
dan friesen
Yeah.
unidentified
So stupid.
dan friesen
And you should not use that as evidence.
The kids weren't killed at Sandy.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
Very lame conspiracy.
jordan holmes
Again, you can prove it, one way or the other.
There's one way to prove it, the part that's already been proven.
dan friesen
Yeah, and listening to people's stories.
jordan holmes
Yeah, Jesus fucking Christ.
dan friesen
I have one question about Sandy Hook.
eddie bravo
The one question, the Tower 7 question is, why weren't the medevac helicopters?
alex jones
The Chenic ran the operation to overthrow at least seven countries.
dan friesen
Change the subject.
jordan holmes
That's not what we're talking about.
dan friesen
Not at all answering.
Just completely.
Because he doesn't want to talk about this.
He's very vulnerable.
jordan holmes
Right.
Because he's wrong.
dan friesen
He's very wrong.
jordan holmes
And he even knows he's wrong at this point.
But he can't back down because if he does that one time, now he's got to back down on so many other little things.
dan friesen
It's important.
jordan holmes
Again, that's the same.
He's a better strategist than our fucking president because that's the same thing that happened with Flynn.
They got one.
Now they're going to go after more.
dan friesen
Blood in the water.
jordan holmes
So as long as he keeps fighting to just avoid it, instead of admit that he's wrong on anything, then he can keep on going.
dan friesen
And one of the things that's super interesting to keep track of and watch is the times that Alex changes the subject.
When it's super intentional like that, it's not like, oh, I just realized that Steve Pachenik helped overthrow governments.
It's not that.
He wants to get off this topic as quickly as possible.
And not draw attention to the fact that he's changing the subject.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
He never gets back to it.
He doesn't answer his question.
jordan holmes
Of course not.
unidentified
Yeah.
alex jones
I mean, that's on record.
unidentified
Yeah.
alex jones
He co-wrote Tom Clancy's books.
He's the Jack Ryan character.
unidentified
Yeah.
alex jones
Because that's because he used to be in covert action himself.
That's how he got into the CIA.
Here's a big secret about the CIA.
Like, they've got hit men that are like former special forces and stuff that are Army, Navy, Marine Corps.
You know, because you like graduate out of the SEALs and out of things into...
Into basically squads that are put in strategic locations around the country with sleeper cells.
And so that's basically what goes on.
But who they really have for assassins are doctors and psychiatrists.
And so a lot of these people you see that are doctors and psychiatrists and things that head up things that were all in the Navy or in the Army.
jordan holmes
Of course!
dan friesen
We're back to Batman.
jordan holmes
Of course!
Where else would you get...
What assassins from?
Doctors.
Psychiatrists.
Is he fucking L. Ron Hubbard?
What is goddamn happening right now?
dan friesen
Explains why he hangs out with John Rappaport.
jordan holmes
What kind of...
Dr. Prochenek, psychiatrist, is the basis for Jack Ryan because he's been in covert action.
dan friesen
I don't even want to unpack that.
jordan holmes
Is there any possibility that's true?
dan friesen
We don't have time to unpack that, and I don't care.
It's such a side issue.
jordan holmes
That's a good point.
He's that good!
What are you forgetting about Sandy Hook bullshit?
dan friesen
Anyway, also, I think he's snitching a little bit.
He's telling tales about the CIA that maybe they wouldn't want out.
Also, it's fine because it's not true.
jordan holmes
Well, I mean, they have overthrown at least seven or eight governments, so we do know that is true.
dan friesen
We have two more clips before we get out of here.
I'm just going to talk about one of them, and I'm going to play the last one.
He talks about how he's sick and fed up with this fucking pope.
jordan holmes
Oh, that goddamn pope!
dan friesen
Because he claims that the Pope said that Muslim terrorism doesn't exist.
He goes back to this a lot.
And I've actually pulled up the speech that that's from.
And it's actually really great.
It's actually a beautiful sentiment that the Pope was making that Alex is twisting.
Here's a quote from the Pope.
unidentified
A Pope quote.
dan friesen
He was talking about points he wants to make.
The other is a reflection that I shared at our most recent world meeting of popular movements.
And I feel it is important to say it again.
No people is criminal and no religion is terrorist.
Christian terrorism does not exist.
Jewish terrorism does not exist.
And Muslim terrorism does not exist.
They do not exist.
No people is criminal or drug trafficking or violent.
He's essentially saying that the identification is bad.
jordan holmes
It's the people who are doing bad things as opposed to...
Now, that's a smart thing for him to say because then he never has to deal with Ireland.
dan friesen
Right.
He goes on to say, the grave danger is to disown our neighbors.
When we do so, we deny their humanity and our own humanity without realizing it.
We deny ourselves and we deny the most important commandments of Jesus.
Herein lies the danger, the dehumanization.
But here we also find an opportunity.
That the light of the love of neighbor may illuminate the earth with its stunning brightness, like a lightning bolt in the dark.
That it may wake us up and let true humanity burst through with authentic resistance, resilience, and persistence.
That's a beautiful thought.
jordan holmes
That is a beautiful thought.
dan friesen
And fuck you, Alex, for twisting that into claiming that there isn't, there aren't people who are Muslims who do terrorism.
That's not the point he's making.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
You're a fucking asshole, Alex.
Anyway, here's the last clip.
This is Eddie Bravo.
I should tell you this.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Along with Eddie's in-studio appearance, they also posted an hour-long video of him at dinner with Owen Schroyer.
jordan holmes
Eddie and Owen Troyer at dinner.
dan friesen
They go to a restaurant.
jordan holmes
And they just do that for an hour.
dan friesen
They argue.
But anyway, here's the clip.
alex jones
It's just crazy.
But listen, I'm going to get into all this other stuff.
Go, because you're too humble.
They've got to see the wild Eddie Bravo.
jordan holmes
Too humble.
alex jones
It goes from absolutely ridiculous to absolute genius.
Go do an hour interview, and I've got to catch your plane, with one of the great reporters back there so we can actually hear Eddie Bravo unchained.
dan friesen
Eddie Bravo unchained is what they want, and so they do.
They go to dinner.
I was going to make a super cut of all of the stupid shit that they talk about, but I couldn't.
It would take way too long.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
They talk about Flat Earth.
He insists that there's an ice wall that...
jordan holmes
Game of Thrones.
dan friesen
Yeah.
And that there's something on the other side of this ice wall.
jordan holmes
But we can't know what it is.
dan friesen
Well, someone knows.
jordan holmes
That's a good point.
dan friesen
And we can't get over there.
jordan holmes
It's too tall!
dan friesen
Hey, guess what?
If that's true, whoever's on the other side is also in on the conspiracy because they haven't come over here.
Fucking retarded.
So, I apologize for the use of that term.
But also, he says that nuclear weapons aren't real.
jordan holmes
Ooh, that's a new one.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Eddie Bravo believes some batshit stuff.
dan friesen
Dinosaurs are fake.
We got more into this.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Did you know that every dinosaur bone at museums are fake?
jordan holmes
Now, that doesn't mean dinosaurs are fake.
dan friesen
They're all replicas.
jordan holmes
That just means that the bones themselves are fake.
Dinosaur bones are fake?
dan friesen
Yeah.
So anyway, I wanted to make a supercut.
jordan holmes
Where do you even hear that?
dan friesen
Stupid blogs.
I'm sure.
Anyway, this clip that I did pull really sums it up.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
So this just, let this underlie all of his arguments.
jordan holmes
Someone could tell me some shit.
unidentified
Do you know that they fuck you with me this way?
I'm like, how?
What's the reason?
Oh, that money?
Okay.
I don't even need to do the fucking research.
I don't even need the evidence.
alex jones
I just, it's probably true.
unidentified
There's a chance that it isn't because I didn't look into it, but I trust you.
You're a smart guy.
You looked into it.
dan friesen
You explained it to me.
That's an Infowars fan.
jordan holmes
Fuck you, Eddie Bravo!
dan friesen
I don't need to do the research.
jordan holmes
I don't need to do it.
dan friesen
It's probably true.
jordan holmes
There's a chance it isn't because I didn't look into it.
dan friesen
Great.
jordan holmes
That is fucking genius.
dan friesen
Yeah, well done, Eddie.
jordan holmes
I can't...
That's...
God, he just summed up the entire Alex Jones show so well.
dan friesen
You said it.
You researched it.
It's probably true.
jordan holmes
This is probably true.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
And if it's not, maybe it's not.
I didn't look into it.
dan friesen
That's intellectually offensive.
jordan holmes
It's...
And it's just so fucking...
It's like the guy who doesn't try because if you fail...
And you don't try.
You just, you know, I didn't try.
And if you succeed, I'm a genius.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
You know, I didn't even have to try.
I was so good.
dan friesen
You're describing my college career.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
So Eddie Bravo's like, hey, it's probably true.
I didn't look into it.
If I'm wrong...
Well, I mean, I didn't look into it.
dan friesen
All you do is take away any semblance of stakes.
jordan holmes
Any personal responsibility whatsoever.
dan friesen
Yep.
So that brings us to the end of this adventure through Alex Jones' star fuckery and a little bit of Monday's episode.
We'll be back soon.
I think we may go maybe more into...
I don't know.
Who knows what we'll do next time.
jordan holmes
We'll see what we do next time, ladies and gentlemen.
dan friesen
But this has been fun, Jordan.
jordan holmes
Absolutely.
You can follow us on Twitter at...
dan friesen
Knowledge underscore fight.
jordan holmes
You can look us up on iTunes, subscribe, leave reviews.
dan friesen
We appreciate it.
jordan holmes
It's super fun.
And then if you're the NSA, or just anybody who's nice, please email us, knowledgefight at gmail.com.
dan friesen
Correct.
jordan holmes
And we will have a form, just a regular template, which will say, do you like us?
Yes or no?
Yeah, and feel free to circle one.
dan friesen
Also, no interest in these shirts.
jordan holmes
They're a good shirt.
dan friesen
I think the interest is implied.
Some people probably want them, but they have not been vocalizing it.
So everyone out there, thanks for that.
jordan holmes
Thanks for that.
dan friesen
We'll be back soon, but until then, we're just a couple of goddamn policy wonks.
jordan holmes
We're a couple of policy wonks.
alex jones
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air.
Thanks for holding.
unidentified
Hello, Alex.
jordan holmes
I'm a first-time caller.
unidentified
I'm a huge fan.
I love your work.
