Knowledge Fight’s #408 episode dissects Alex Jones’ March 2020 rants—DWI conspiracy theories, misrepresented legal warnings (NY AG’s cease-and-desist over $5K fines per product claim), and debunked COVID-19 claims like airborne HIV chimeras, stolen gloves, and silver toothpaste cures. Guests Mike Adams, Joel Skousen, and Stuart Rhodes amplify baseless theories, while Jones deflects personal chaos (custody battles, arrests) into globalist doomsday scenarios. His erratic behavior—ignoring warnings, promoting unproven products—exposes desperation amid legal threats, suggesting a pattern of self-sabotage over substance. [Automatically generated summary]
So Alex gets to talking about these documents from the Pentagon and all that.
And I think that if you listen to this, especially as it gets further on and the attention gets larger that's being put on to Alex about this sales issue, I think it becomes pretty clear that he knows damn well that those documents are only talking about the wound gel.
I woke up at 4 a.m. this morning and I spent hours just sitting in a chair in the kitchen, drinking a cup of coffee over an hour, not answering the phone, not reading news, but really deeply dwelling, cogitating as a cogitor on the portions and the information we know and the tea leaves.
To then form the dialectic and figure out the synthesis of what's really going on as a roadmap to understand the new data as we get it, to look at it from all spectrums.
That's multiple dimension, third dimensional, fourth dimension thinking.
I need to have outrageous alarmists come on and tell you that the end of the world is coming because that's an important part of us finding the right narrative.
I was already saying this about three weeks ago that I thought there'd be other strains, that they, this was a cover for something bigger.
And now I'm sure of it.
And now we see them saying that.
So they're priming the pump.
They always tell you what they're gonna do before they do it.
And let me just tell everybody, if you're not getting chills, you're crazy.
Everybody doesn't need the media to scare them to want to go out and get food and get guns and get ready, because they need me.
This is whoa.
I just got the biggest chill i've ever had.
Like when i'm on target man, the holy spirit's just like yo boy.
We're on the over the target, beyond the veil, the Spirit World God, saying that's it, that's it, that's it.
This is what the globalists are doing.
We know what it is.
This is an attack, but so you need to get not hysterical.
You need to get right with God.
You need to tell everybody that it's a staged event and you need to then take action by spreading the word to others so people understand that this is an attack on our markets.
It's an attack on our confidence.
It's an attack on the fact that the whole global system is falling apart.
Now i'm going to come back into the details of the coronavirus and some other things um, but I do just want to remind all of you that anything I promote is what I really believe is the best thing that needs to be done.
We'll get down into business on the uh, the strains situation a little bit later when Alex addresses it more, but uh, for now, just trying to scare people getting a lot of chills, sure that lead him naturally into he's a little cold.
So he he's uh, he's really defensive about the silver sales tactics.
I can't, I can't believe why and the scrutiny that he's been getting surrounding uh, those tactics.
And so he deploys a lot of straw men.
You already heard earlier him saying they're saying I sell fake weed yeah, yeah or whatever, yeah.
And now he brings out what is probably his largest straw man and he, i've heard him deploy this pretty regularly.
So let me just show tv viewers, since Mother Jones is demonizing us in a very deceptive formulaic piece where they show other people that the FDA has gotten mad at, who have made claims and violated FDA regulations.
The FDA says they don't regulate supplements.
But then they'll come after you if you say you need water to live or sunshine's good for you, or you've got to have vitamin c to live oxygen in four minutes you die.
So Alex's only real defense he can have in terms of his very clearly unethical sales of these silver products is to create straw man arguments that the FDA is not making.
Here you see one of these regular formulations saying that the FDA won't let you say that humans need oxygen or water.
So the basic point that he wants his audience to think is that the FDA doesn't allow you to say things that are completely established and common knowledge because he's trying to make his claims appear to be established and common knowledge.
He wants his audience to take his claims about the silver products to be as legitimate as someone saying you need air to live.
The problem is that what he's saying about the FDA isn't true.
The Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990 establishes that there are certain types of claims that are solidly proven and widely accepted to the point where you could make them about supplements and the FDA does not care.
The FDA has a big list of these on their website, including things like the relationship between calcium and osteoporosis or sodium and hypertension.
If you sell a calcium supplement and you promote it by saying that it can help you avoid osteoporosis, the FDA considers you to be in the clear and they're not going to do anything about it.
Claims like you need water or you should breathe obviously are things the FDA does not care about people making.
But Alex needs his audience to think that these FDA people are so aggressive and nitpicky that even the most obvious claims aren't allowed because he needs them to think that what he did isn't an egregious example of someone making an unfounded health claim.
He also needs them not to think that he was defrauding them.
So Alex is getting really defensive about the media, picking up on his silver, gargle, and toothpaste, how he's selling them as protections and kind of vaguely as cures for the coronavirus.
In an attempt to sound really researched and studied, he decides to pull out a bunch of science to demonstrate that all his products are super good for you.
And apparently, he has too much vaso beets in the warehouse because he decides to start pushing that.
Beets are really high in nitric oxide, not nitrous oxide.
And this product that he's selling is very beet heavy.
So Alex is pulling out these studies about nitric oxide being helpful for immune response.
However, he clearly hasn't read any of these studies.
They're just printed out pieces of paper that have headlines that are to show people that they've linked nitric oxide to human immune responses.
However, none of these studies have anything to do with people taking nitric oxide having a better immune response.
They're all just about how the actual compound nitric oxide plays a role in immunity.
Using these studies to establish that you can sell a beet product to boost immunity would probably not hold up in court because they're not relevant studies to the claims being made.
Also, I have to stress Alex has absolutely not read these studies.
One of them is from the July 2018 Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research with the headline, quote, Nitric Oxide, Its Role in Immunity.
This paper includes a section titled, quote, nitric oxide and immune regulation, which begins, quote, the exact function of nitric oxide in the immune regulation is unclear.
There is a role, but even this review is saying that it's not fully understood.
Considering that this sales pitch is happening in the middle of a viral outbreak and Alex is clearly marketing his products in that context, it would probably be good to check the section about nitric oxide immunity and viruses, which does say that nitric oxide helps with virus immunity, but also that, quote, during clearance of virus, high levels of nitric oxide can produce some undesirable effects on the host, like hemorrhagic fever.
It seems like the point is that low levels of nitric oxide, that's likely to be good in the body's natural immune response, but if you have really high levels of it, you can have some pretty negative consequences.
You would know that if you just read the paper's introduction.
Quote, nitric oxide is also implicated in the path physiology of various cancers, breast, larynx, cervix, head, and neck.
Tumor-promoting role of nitric oxide is dependent on the tumor type, nitric oxide concentration, and its interaction with proteins, metals, or free radicals, and the genetic makeup of the host.
Lower concentration of nitric oxide is important for immune function, while nitric oxide at higher levels are shown to be immunosuppressive, suggesting a dual role of the biomolecule.
If you have too much nitric oxide in your system, according to this study that Alex is using as a citation on air, it can lead to tumor growth and immunosuppression.
That seems reckless of him, but it becomes even more reckless when you hear this.
Probably not a good idea to say that you can give your kids as much nitric oxide supplement as you want while citing a study that literally says too much nitric oxide is really bad for you.
An ungenerous reading of that behavior would be that Alex wants his audience to have tumors and be immunosuppressed.
That's the only conclusion you can come to if you actually believe that Alex has read the study he's citing.
I'm far from a scientist, but from the studies Alex has provided, it seems clear that having too much nitric oxide in your system could be very bad for you.
And here he is on air saying you can take as much of it as you want and that your kids can take a bunch.
That's incredibly irresponsible behavior.
And from where I'm sitting, that indicates that we're in a situation where Alex's refusal to do any work could constitute a risk to his audience's health.
And please understand, Alex has no fucking idea what he's talking about.
Later in the show, he's promoting this beet product by saying it's high in nitrous oxide again.
I don't know what level of nitric oxide those Vezo beats pills have.
Probably not.
I don't know the extent to which they would be dangerous, even if you take a bunch, but the mentality is irresponsible that he's put in court.
So he keeps, you know, every now and again, he'll bring up those documents that we've already talked about that are about the silver wound gel and try and apply them to the gargle and the toothpaste.
Thousands of newspapers, every TV channel that you randomly check because the globalists hate me.
They use the CIA Mockingbird program.
I've had former high-level CIA operatives who ran propaganda for the State Department on Pieczenik saying, no, they're using Mockingbird against you, and Obama is still in control of it.
Everyone else is saying, I was arrested for DWI.
I committed a DWI.
Even other CNN headlines say Alex Jones gets DWI.
But this one CNN headline says Alex Jones accused of DWI.
This is just a case of CNN initially running with the headline, Alex Jones accused of DWI, then later updating it to Alex Jones arrested on DWI charge.
Both are accurate statements.
Both are fine to run his headlines, but the latter is probably more indicative of what the story is.
So I can understand why an editor might change that later.
It's fair to assume that, or it's fair to say that Alex was accused of a DWI by the state of Texas.
It's the same thing, you know, where you presume someone's innocence until they've been to court.
Like saying Alex allegedly was driving drunk.
You can say that.
It's also fair to say that he was arrested for DWI because he definitely was.
So this story here with CNN, this is just an instance of an editorial update that Alex is going to try and use to insinuate some kind of nefarious plot to demonize him in the media.
He'll talk about anything other than the reality, and his audience is primed to believe him.
Steve Pieczenik says that this is CIA mockingbird stuff.
So nothing that you see about Alex in the media is real at all.
So it's not unified propaganda for media outlets to report that Alex got arrested for a DWI.
It would be bad reporting if they said that he'd been found guilty of it in court or if they said that he'd been convicted.
But to say that he got arrested or that he was charged, those are accurate statements.
He's found one early CNN headline that has been updated that says he was accused of DWI.
So what he's doing is claiming that this is the only accurate headline, whereas the rest are all propaganda.
Sad.
Alex drove drunk, and instead of taking responsibility for his actions, he needs the world to know that not only was he the victim in the arrest, he's also the victim in a global sense because the media is accurately reporting on his arrest.
Also, pretty much every state has a DWI limit of 0.08, with the exception of Utah.
Utah has a limit of 0.05, but it's also important to keep in mind that Utah is the state in the country with some of the most restrictive alcohol laws.
Only state-regulated liquor stores can sell beer with higher than 5% alcohol.
And there's a bunch of cities in the state where you can't even buy booze at all.
I'm really conflicted about this because it's that intersection of the personal life and on-air life of Alex that I find really difficult to navigate.
I don't play this clip to mock Alex for his claims that he'll never drink again.
I'm playing this to demonstrate what Alex thinks is worthwhile spending time with on his show.
There's no standards or professionalism on this show at all.
He's supposed to be getting into the big news about the coronavirus, but it's about 40 minutes into the episode at this point.
And so far, it's mostly been him being defensive about his sales practices and him being defensive about his TWI.
I understand that in order for him to continue to operate as a business, he has to protect the scam from the natural consequences of the way he runs the scam.
But it really feels like he's coming to the point where he's in over his head.
Like, it feels like, especially the way he seems to need to respond to these things on air and take up so much time with it.
And in opposition to other times things have happened, he's really been much more deflection-oriented.
This seems to be like, I must stand to these accusations in a way that's like, buddy, you are going to turn into Lenny Bruce trying to do all your stand-up shows about how you got arrested.
Yeah, only the most devoted folk are going to put up with that kind of unentertaining load of shit.
This show is four hours long, but Alex only hosts the first three hours.
We're now almost a third of the way through his on-air time on this 311 episode.
And outside of a brief restatement of his dumb virus stuff, he's provided no content other than his own personal issues bleeding into his professional life.
He can't perform as an effective propagandist because his narcissistic need to protect his own self-image is getting in the way.
The coronavirus and the response to it and the coordinated globalist hysteria is huge to bring down the economy, to bring down President Trump.
They're now announcing other more deadly strains of it after they beta test how much they can scare the public that I believe they probably already released.
And so you should get ready.
I'm going to get into this news here in a moment.
But first, we have a whole line of products that are known and documented through ancient custom and research and studies to be really good for your body and boost your immune system.
I think that this just, it's going to be almost exactly the same thing as a clip I have already played.
But I think it's important to stress that I believe that there is an awareness that Alex knows that the claims in those documents that he has are just about the wound gel.
And then, of course, we also have the super silver toothpaste with the nano patented silver.
And I'm not going to sit here and go into a long discussion about the patented nano silver, but it has been approved over the counter in the super silver wound gel that is for topical.
This is the strongest silver you're going to find over the counter.
Yeah, I mean, I'm sure you could obfuscate it enough to pass through the shittiness of the legal system, but this is definitely, he knows what he's doing.
Yeah, if we had a judge who was, I don't know, obsessed with Alex Jones and had studied him for the past three years, then I don't think Alex is getting away with this one.
So get all your nano silver products, get your X2, get your X3, get your DNA Force Plus, get your nano-silver toothpaste, your superlutes that has that, and the T-Tree, and the ionine, all of it, 40 to 50% off right now at InfoWarStore.com.
I've just decided during this crisis to go ahead and just do this for the next week.
I'm going to call the crew right now.
I'm going to say free shipping store-wide is implemented again right now.
Anyway, Alex leaves because he's dealing with things he doesn't want the audience to know about.
In the aftermath of his arrest, Alex's ex-wife filed a motion to be granted custody of their children, which ultimately led to a judge requiring Alex to get drug and alcohol testing.
That news broke on Wednesday, so I'm pretty certain that this is what Alex was trying to address off air while he was just decided to leave his show to take care of the assault.
There's two possibilities, really, and that is that Alex is just sort of bluffing and trying to be like, I understand everything, but I'm not ready to lay it out because I don't really understand everything.
But it's also funnier to imagine that he did prepare and got everything in order and then just got so mad because of a tech glitch that he's like, I don't remember what the globalists were going to do.
So, Alex, I initially thought that that was kind of a throwaway thing, and he's just mad at Tom Hanks, and he's like, ah, I'm faking it.
He's going to bring it up again later.
But Alex gets down to, you know, this is going to kill almost everybody.
Everybody.
Simultaneously, as personal issues bleed into his coverage and his inability to perform his job, he started on a pretty bad place in terms of panic and escalating things.
How does she need to get laser focused and just go into the main point I'm going to make when we come back?
And that's where it came from, who's behind it, what the plan is, and the really bad news.
And I'm going to give you the bad news when we come back.
I figured it out.
And we can walk through all the background and the viruses and the strains and who's behind it.
But this is going to make AIDS and HIV down the road look like a very mild problem.
And they have just introduced to you the depopulation program.
And so most of you won't even get sick or die from this, but the next decade, we don't stop them.
Most of you will die from this.
So there's a little newsflash that I thought I was just going to give you next year's news today.
Next decade's news today.
We're going to come right back.
Oh, just two big announcements here.
Living Defense that takes care of those massive unwanted visitors that's so popular that it has the 100% reviews that sold out for four and a half, five months.
Look, I know you think that just because my personal life is clearly falling down around me, that maybe I'm exaggerating what is happening on the world right now.
Maybe everybody's going to die in the world.
Probably just because I'm projecting a little bit that maybe I'm going to die myself.
And with that much data, it's called a police hunch.
People ask, well, how's that detective so good?
How does he know how to, even though the serial killer only kills every few months, track them and come up with mathematical equations and maps and then finally be there in the right zone and catch him trying to kidnap a woman on the very night?
There's been lots of cases of that.
And you'll talk to those famous detectives and they'll just finally just say, I don't know how I do it.
So right off the bat, Alex predicted 9-11 because he listened to Bill Cooper's Hour of the Time and just stole the prediction wholesale from him.
That's all he did there.
It has nothing to do with his subconscious mind or him having a constellation of data points or whatever.
He just ripped off another dude.
As for how Bill predicted it, I mean, Bin Laden had attacked the World Trade Center previously and wasn't making a secret that he wanted to do it again.
While it is true that some police departments consult psychics on a very limited basis with some cases and some mixed results, what Alex is describing is not the real world version of this sort of thing.
Because a lot of it's stuff we've already talked about before.
And because a little bit later in this episode, we will see Alex really formulate and compress down into a digestible form of the important pieces of the narrative.
And I believe that on this episode, what we look at is a really solidification of the narrative, ignoring and not worrying about some of the external things and the sort of distractions, just getting it down to what's important.
And if we fail this test, we're going to be ruled by the threat of unending invisible bio weapons that the globalists are going to be releasing to take full control of society.
And we've known that's their mode of control for a long time.
And the globalists have bragged and all these different publications they're going to use, the threat of mass pathogens and death to control.
But if we don't get that narrative out on a mass scale, we're screwed.
And I'll tell you, the only person I see as a world leader that is not going along with this and that has fought it and who has saw through it is Trump.
And believe me, Trump knows exactly what's going on.
And he's fighting the deep state on one side and the shy comms that are linked up with it on the other side.
And they released this on purpose to clamp down on their own people to end the Taiwan embarrassment and then to try to topple our economy.
That's all admitted.
The Democrats brag about that.
That in and of itself is so huge.
Then you look at the virus.
Pretty simple statement, huh?
Why are we talking about where this thing came from when it's known to be man-made?
So I think there's something really teachable inside that clip.
Like a lot of it is meaningless nonsense, but I think he showed a little bit too much of his cards there when he says, if we don't get the narrative out on a mass scale, we're screwed.
Part of what's revealing about that is Alex sees what he does is putting out narratives, just as I see what he does.
I see it exactly the same way.
He's not putting out reality.
He's telling a story, and he needs that story to spread in order for people to fall into his marketing scheme.
At least on a regular level, that's the case.
He knows that.
He knows that he's pushing a narrative.
It's just talking points.
But when Alex says something like, if we don't get at this narrative, we're screwed.
It's important to consider what he's actually saying.
The narrative that he needs to get out is the idea that the globalists are behind this release of a man-made bioweapon, which was designed to crash the U.S. economy and get Trump out of office.
That's the narrative that he needs to spread, and it's kind of obvious why.
What Alex is really saying here is that reality is going to look damning in hindsight.
So they better do some preemptive damage control and have a narrative in place that explains away all of the things that Trump didn't do, all of the failures in response.
Yep.
That is, that's all he's saying.
If we don't get this narrative out, reality is going to look really fucking bad, guys.
And our entire philosophy of the government not doing anything and maybe the federal government not existing, that is going to look like really stupid.
There's going to almost be an exact example of why that's a bad way to organize society.
This gets back to what he was talking about earlier when he got chills talking about the strains.
What he's lying about is some preliminary studies out of China.
According to the South China Morning Post, researchers were finding that there were very statistically relevant drops in some of the early symptoms of the virus in patients who tested positive post-January 23rd, as opposed to those who tested positive previously.
One of the theories that's been put forth by the researchers is that early on, the virus had two strains, one being more aggressive than the other, with symptoms showing up pretty noticeably.
The quarantine that was placed on areas of China created a very strong selective pressure against the spread of the more aggressive version, since it would have been noticed much more easily.
If their numbers are correct, this makes some sense, given that their samples reflect a drop from the aggressive strain being 96% of the samples collected prior to January 23rd, and only 60% of the samples collected after.
It should be pointed out, though, that there are dissenting opinions about this research, and it's not even accepted as an established fact that there are two strains of the virus.
Even if the proposed two-strains hypothesis is correct, according to an op-ed in CNN written by an assistant professor in the Department of Epidemiology and Microbial Diseases at Yale Public School of Public Health, quote, the two proposed S and L coronavirus strains only differ by two mutations and are 99.993% identical.
It's extremely likely that any vaccine designed for one coronavirus will be protective against the other.
Viruses mutate because they make mistakes in replication when they're copying their RNA.
These mutations can have basically no effect on their characteristics, or they can have effects that are either advantageous or disadvantageous to the virus.
However, some things that would appear advantageous to a virus might actually be detrimental to it.
For instance, a mutation that makes a virus more aggressive can have the effect of debilitating the host, and thus it makes them less likely to spread the virus to others, which would be disadvantageous from the virus's perspective.
There's a complicated interconnectedness when you look at virus mutation.
And in the case of the current outbreak, there's just not enough information to make a concrete assessment about any of this.
However, Alex has read a few headlines about these two strains, and he's determined that that's proof that his theory that there's secretly a ton of different viruses in one is right, and he's just dumb.
Interestingly, this very closely mirrors a conspiracy theory that was promoted by Russian scientists after the 2003 SARS outbreak.
They claimed that SARS is actually a combination of measles and mumps, which it definitely was not.
This sort of theory is pretty common in propaganda circles whenever there's an outbreak.
You know, it's a very human impulse to when you are faced with uncertainty.
There's a need to craft a narrative and a concrete villain out of the situation where it might just be human failings along the way.
Later next hour, I'll show you a photo that was sent to me by one of my friends, his dad, on a cruise ship off the coast of South Africa.
And in the little daily newspaper, get off that ship.
Every member of your visiting jump, folks, the tourist, the cruisers, their shipmates, they have an article about Alex Jones arrested for TWI.
There it is.
Why would that be on a cruise ship out of South Africa?
Well, Dr. Pachenix talked about this.
It is a State Department operation since the end of World War II, where certain communiques we put out through a system that is then published via Operation Mockingbirds, what it's called, in every newspaper in the world that's affiliated with it and every broadcast system.
That's why every TV station, every radio station, every network, every newspaper that is part of these affiliate systems since the 40s just takes what is given to them and put out.
Of course, I blew under the legal limit.
But now they have a thing where they test you at the jail, so I had to be taken to jail.
So Alex flashes up on camera this picture that someone sent him, and it's just a shot of like a printed-out newsletter kind of thing.
It doesn't say the name of the paper, so that introduced a little bit of difficulty in figuring out exactly who he was accusing of being Mockingbird CIA shills here.
But the picture did give me one clue.
In the upper right-hand corner of the page, it said KVH Media, who are clearly the producers of this newsletter.
I found KVH's filing with the Security Exchange Commission, and according to the description of the business, they are quote, a leading provider of commercially licensed entertainment, including news, sports, music, and movies, to commercial and leisure customers in the maritime, hotel, and retail markets.
This is a company that provides broadband for cruise ships and resorts and also news bulletins.
One thing that confuses me, though, is that I'm not sure that they send physical newspapers to cruise ships.
That seems almost prohibitively expensive and difficult, especially considering they say they primarily offer a quote news-from-home digital newspaper service that includes more than 100 daily newspapers and more than 20 languages that at the end of 2015 was delivered to more than 8,500 commercial ships, hotels, and cruise ships.
The digital content can be printed on board or viewed on a tablet, smartphone, or laptop.
So I took another look at that picture Alex has, and I noticed something peculiar.
The blurb about Alex is just an AP article syndicated through this KVH portal.
The article right after it is, quote, Coachella Festival postponed, also syndicated from the Associated Press.
There's another article about Harvey Weinstein's sentencing, which appears to be syndicated from the AFP.
What's going on?
Yes.
This is a publication called Newslink, and it's just an aggregation of news from large news wires around the world.
Newslink has a ton of options.
And then what they have, how it works basically, is that they have approximately, I think it was like 100 different options of pre-packaged newsletters that are just aggregations of, like, if you want a what kind of focus do you want?
Is like if you have a crew or like a bunch of people who are from the Philippines who are on this cruise ship, they will have news that's centric to the Filipino audience.
So I don't know if this is necessarily a CIA mockingbird operation.
I think that there's just an Associated Press story about Alex getting a DWI that the crew of this specific cruise ship decided to include in their newsletter, or it was part of one of the packaged newsletters.
I'm not entirely sure.
If Alex wants to make this a nefarious conspiracy, the only bad guy, I guess, is KVH Media, if he wants to say that, or the captain of this ship or whoever's in charge of the newsletter on that ship.
It's about how I'm being targeted and why am I being targeted.
Here's another example.
I've talked about on air the fact that hospitals have nano silver and colloidal silver.
And you go to the, you go to CVS now.
They've got a whole section of silver.
Everybody knows silver goes after viruses and goes after bacteria.
And then we sell different silver products by American nanotech that has gone out and has their stuff sold over the counter that we then private label.
And then the media thinks everybody's ignorant and goes, oh, Jones claims he can cure the coronavirus.
No, I never said that.
I never said if you had the virus replicating in you, that this would fix it.
And it's got the head of Homeland Security in here talking about how this patented nano-silver Department of the Army headquarters, United States Special Operations Command, found with Andrew C. Von Eckenbach, MD, Commissioner of Food and Drugs, that it was taking out the SARS virus, which is the coronavirus family.
I think that you could make a pretty compelling case that the way that was intended to be heard by the audience is, I mean, because you can't really knock something out if it's not there.
I don't know what that would look like, but here it is.
So the first time Alex brought up these studies about the effectiveness of the nano silver vis-a-vis vis the SARS family, that was on January 31st, 2020.
I'm Jan, this is 2020.
He even says on that episode that he had just been cleared to discuss this stuff, presumably cleared by his silver supplier.
Yes, American Biotech Labs.
And that makes some sense.
You know how every time Alex pulls out this piece of evidence, he begins with the name Dr. Keith Mueller, as you heard in that clip right there.
That's because the top document in his stack, the My Silver Sales stack, is an email from Dr. Keith Mueller, who is the CEO of American Biotech Labs.
The email reads, quote, the report is the coronavirus is like the SARS virus, and Homeland Security put out the data that our product could kill that one.
See the above letter from the director of the Homeland Security to the secretary.
Dr. Carlton is a brilliant man who came up with the mobile hospital system.
We only received a copy of it because our testimony before Congress on malaria, and it was included as an addendum to that testimony.
We never received a good copy, but we did get a copy, and it's worth the reading on the claims they make about our product.
This should be pointed out, is not an email addressed to Alex.
It's addressed to someone named Ken and another person named Kimball.
Kimball is shown in the email to be Kimball Mueller, who is listed as the Eastern U.S. sales rep for Silver Biotics, their silver line.
I'm not sure who Ken is, but I would assume that it's someone else who works with American Biotech Labs and the Silver Biotics.
That email is about the silver wound gel, as you can tell from the attached letter that that email refers to.
This is not the same as saying that the Homeland Security found that the gargle and the toothpaste has any efficacy against SARS-like viruses, regardless of whether or not it has the same silver in it.
This information cannot be used to justify those sorts of claims.
And if Alex tries to use this in court, he's going to lose that case.
Those imaginary season desist letters that he's going to send out aren't going to do shit.
This is Alex threatening to sue the Associated Press all over again.
Also, you may notice that the email from Dr. Mueller starts, quote, the report is that the coronavirus is like the SARS virus, which should tell you that this information was created after the outbreak began.
You can clearly see a date of January 24th, 2020 on the email, which tracks with the timeline of Alex receiving this from someone a few days later and then him bringing it on air on January 31st.
It's important for Alex to pretend that his sales tactics predate the outbreak because if he's, you know, opportunistically selling this silver in response to an outbreak, that makes him look like what he is, a con man.
Unfortunately, I listened to his show, and I know for a fact that he began in response to the outbreak behaving this way.
And Alex's own documents prove this.
That date on the email is pretty fucking damn damning.
This email didn't exist prior to January 24th, and it's how Alex got the documents that he's quote-unquote cleared to bring to the air.
Copper surfaces, it's killed in hours, whereas the virus survives for many days, up to nine days on other surfaces such as cardboard or plastic or others.
And silver is known to kill the viability of viruses and kill bacteria even more aggressively than copper.
So Mike is referring to a recent, not yet peer-reviewed study that looked at how long coronavirus could survive in various conditions, including on various surfaces.
Here's where the first problem with Mike's comments pop up.
In their testing, they found that the virus is detectable for four hours or so on copper, as opposed to 24 hours on cardboard and 72 hours on plastic and stainless steel.
This is useful information to have for people.
And if the results stand up to peer review, it'll be a good thing to know about the virus.
However, the way Mike is using this information is completely fucked up.
He's coming on the show right after Alex gets super defensive about how he's being criticized for selling his ingestible silver shit.
To make Alex feel better about the people rightly criticizing him, Mike pulls out this study that says that silver or saying that silver kills viruses more aggressively than copper.
Copper is in the study.
Mike is just bringing silver into it for no reason.
Here's where the major problem is.
The study Mike is citing is about viruses on surfaces, not inside the body.
If Alex were selling silver countertops, then maybe this would be relevant.
But as it stands now, there's literally no connection between the observed lifespan of a virus on copper and the assumed effect eating silver will do to it.
But if Mike really does want to make this connection, why isn't he advising his listeners to eat copper?
There's a study right there stating that copper kills virus faster than steel, so it stands to reason that everyone should start eating 1976 pennies.
Sacramento County has announced they're dropping all quarantines.
They're no longer going to try to contain this.
They're just releasing all high-risk patients right out to the public.
I've got a story of this right now up on my website just a few minutes ago.
I've called for Trump to declare a national emergency and literally dispatch the military to take over Sacramento County in order to reestablish basic medical principles of the modern era.
Sacramento is trying to spread this.
They're deliberately wanting to bring down Trump by spreading the disease and spreading the infections.
It is a criminal sabotage act on the part of Sacramento County.
I wonder if that's just because he's only read one headline on this story and decided to run with it as a narrative.
Probably.
So this is a situation where Sacramento County has decided that they're not going to impose a 14-day quarantine on everyone who's come in contact with someone who has the virus.
If you're sick, you're still to isolate.
But if you came in contact with someone who ends up testing positive, the advice the county is giving now is changed.
The full story here is that the head of Sacramento County's Department of Health Services, Dr. Peter Bailinson, he decided that we're at the point where they need to try a different approach.
He determined that the county was past the point of reasonable containment and it reached a point where mitigation was the main priority.
As he told the Sacramento Bee, quote, once you get a certain number of cases, it's hard to continue contact traceback the way you tried initially, or originally, excuse me.
So we move to mitigation, which is basically trying to mitigate the risk to those who are most at risk, the elderly and those with chronic underlying conditions.
An epidemiologist interviewed for that article in the Bee said that this shift in approach makes total sense.
In early stages, when you have a hope for containment, it's good to quarantine as many high-likelihood persons as you can trace down.
Once there's enough cases, that becomes prohibitive from a resource standpoint.
You need to try a different approach, which these counties in California are doing.
Whatever your thoughts on this are, it's not an attempt to spread the virus.
And this sort of narrative that Mike is spreading is really just indicative of his desire to see Trump enact a brutal authoritarian crackdown on people he doesn't like.
So you're telling me that the city of Sacramento did not get together and hold a secret vote to release all of their infected citizens in order to take down Trump.
So I thought that Mike talking about the copper and silver defense for Alex was one of the stupidest things I've heard him say in a long time, but he one-ups himself.
If he thinks that, he can't possibly have looked into this because if he did, he would understand the two-tube proboscis that mosquitoes use to suck your blood.
He would understand that mosquito-borne illnesses are not spread by the blood that the mosquitoes drank previously, but what that blood could have infected the mosquito with.
Mosquitoes inject a little bit of their saliva into you when they bite you, and this is how they transmit diseases like malaria.
If a particular disease cannot infect the mosquito and replicate in the mosquito, it cannot transmit that disease no matter what blood it drank earlier.
This is legitimately some basic fucking stuff that Mike is 100% wrong about.
To be totally clear, it may end up being the case that the virus will be able to be transmitted by mosquitoes.
That might be the case.
But there is no indication that that is the case currently.
People who understand this far better, they have said that there is no indications at the present time that this is something that can be transmitted by mosquitoes.
But this is something that Mike would only be saying if he was trying to scare people at this point.
And if he, you know, the other possibilities just literally knows nothing and is just talking shit and trying to sound like he knows what he's talking about.
When you have a county in California, Sacramento County, deliberately engaging in criminal sabotage to spread this virus across America, then it is absolutely time for President Trump to declare a national emergency, send the military into Sacramento County, seize control of the public health department there, arrest the officials, march them out, prosecute them, put them in jail, and reestablish basic modern medical common sense.
I would like President Trump to burn Sacramento to the ground, murder all of its citizens, raise the pyre up to the heavens as a signal that modern medicine is how we shall do things, and then pray to God to cure the rest of us.
Dan, what you're not understanding is that when someone says something in one circumstance and then the circumstances change and then they say something different, that's hypocrisy, Dan.
And I understand that, you know, hey, this situation and 9-11 are both large lifestyle altering for some, for most circumstances.
I can see how Mike would be like, okay, in the aftermath of that giant terrorist attack, President Bush came out and said, everybody's got to buy stuff.
But at this point, it's important to remember that on March 12th, he's just responding to Media Matters and Mother Jones putting out these articles about his silver sales.
He doesn't get that letter until the letter is dated March 12th.
I mean, it's hard to see anybody who has suffered less consequences for more terrifying, you know, like you got George W. Bush committing war crimes, and then you've got Alex.
It's pretty good on the 12th, but the 13th might be different.
Okay.
So, on this clip here, Alex is really, one of the things that's really important is when there is a lot of this barrage of outside attacks coming at him, quote-unquote attacks.
I might call it stories that are accurate.
Sure.
He needs to make the audience feel like it's actually about them.
And we've chronicled this with the author of the U.S. biological weapons law that became world law and scientists and researchers ad nauseum with the actual research papers out of India and other major prestigious universities around the world.
He's spoken to unhinged lunatics and Holocaust deniers who have helped him build up his narrative, but none of it's even close to real.
He constantly mentions that Indian study, but he never really discusses the contents of it at all.
He hand-waves away the fact that it was retracted by its own authors after their methods and conclusions were very seriously critiqued by the scientific community by just saying that they came from to pressure from the globalists.
Also, I thought that Alex's narratives about the HIV delivery system thing were just him not understanding the Furion versus ACE2 cleavage, but I think that I might have been giving him too much credit.
Upon more reflection, I think that that's just that Indian study.
I think that's all that is.
And he didn't read it.
In that study, the authors found four nucleotide sequences that they claimed were not present in other coronaviruses, which they speculated were swapped with sequences in HIV.
One of the main reasons their paper ended up being retracted is the swift criticism they got, particularly relating to the fact that two of those sequences are found in other coronaviruses, and only one of the sequences was even similar to one found in HIV.
And it was almost certainly a coincidence.
This is most likely all Alex is talking about when he claims that there's an HIV delivery system.
It's all just traced back to that retracted, discredited Indian study.
None of this is real at all.
It's just a shoddy collection of bullshit that he's talked about for the last two months being pressed together to make a more compact ball of shit.
And day one, six weeks ago, corporate media praised China, but when Trump talked about stopping flights and we said, yeah, that's a great idea, they went, oh my God, it's so xenophobic.
Then a week later, South Korea, Japan, Russia, all these other stop flights.
When Trump did it a week later, they freaked out in the media and said it was periodable.
So did China, so did the UN.
The UN's response shooting people at checkpoints was good.
Trump saying we're going to stop flights from China when everybody else had bad.
So there's no good evidence that suggests that any country that suspended flights has seen a decreased incidence of coronavirus.
For instance, Alex lists South Korea, who stopped all flights to Daegu, the city with the most infections, on February 23rd.
That country had 763 cases at that point, and by March 1st, they had 3,736.
One of the reasons that generally people view shutting down travel from specific places as being xenophobic is because it really doesn't have the effect that you would think it would have in terms of disease containment.
Experts on the subject agree that it's best to allow people to travel, and that way you can set up screening points of people coming in and out, which you wouldn't be able to do if everything was shut down and only people who were, the only people who were coming in were complete unknown quantities.
Given the lack of evidence that this is an effective strategy, if someone is pushing for it to be used, it usually means that person is either uninformed or they have a hidden agenda.
Given how frequently the Trump administration has tried to restrict travel for bigoted reasons in the past, you could kind of understand why some commentators might get that impression.
Alex has still not demonstrated his claims of people being shot at checkpoints, even that that's real, but he's acting as if it is and claiming that the UN loved it, none of which is based in reality.
This is all just bullshit.
So now we get to the third section of the – do you have a question?
There's no evidence that this is man-made or that anyone was doing any testing on it.
But if they were, this still makes no sense.
No amount of testing would be able to predict what coding errors the virus would make in RNA replication, which would lead to the mutations.
That's random.
It's just a natural process that scientists could not control nor predict with any kind of accuracy.
Also, there's no evidence that pigs can get this coronavirus.
There are pig-borne coronaviruses for sure, like porcine respiratory coronavirus, but there's currently no indication that the current outbreak affects pigs.
Dr. Jet Christensen, the manager of the Canada West Swine Health Intelligence Network, said, quote, there is no very clear evidence that pigs might be susceptible to the specific strain, but I want to caution that there is much research going on right now that this could change within a week or two.
Alex is just making up that this affects pigs, and that's true, even if we eventually learn that pigs are susceptible.
He's just making this shit up.
He has no idea.
So we get to another line of this.
And this is more or less just segmented chunks of like a three-minute distillation of the merits.
Alex is just exaggerating the suggestion in that research that we discussed earlier that there are two, the S and L strains, which isn't even something that there's a consensus about.
He's just embellishing and exaggerating.
Now we get to the next piece, and that's the chimera piece.
It's even very difficult for me as someone who's covering this stuff because I will have quiet moments of real self-doubt that I have made too little of the situation.
And it's really tough because we're covering Alex and Alex says bullshit.
Well, let's get back to this concreting of the narrative.
It would not be complete if it didn't include the idea that Obama sort of virus bought in 2015 from North Carolina University that Obama allowed the transfer of.
There's so many parallels to the way that he is treating this from a perspective of nothing anybody does or nothing anything, nothing is Trump's fault.
Nothing he does is Trump's fault with nothing I did to get the DWI is my fault.
This is the globalist plan to teach us to live under lockdown, to teach us that there's this invisible enemy, even worse than terrorists, that we've got to give our rights up and take the force inoculations and do what they say.
So after that laundry list of completely fictional elements of the finalized version of this narrative, Alex reasserts that this is being used to paralyze the economy and make us live under lockdown.
My first suggestion is that if you see someone go zero for seven in their premises, their conclusion is probably shit too.
What Alex is doing is taking the natural consequences of something and then pretending those consequences are why the thing happened to begin with.
For instance, naturally, a large-scale outbreak is going to have an effect on the economy.
It's pretty inescapable in the modern world.
When there are market disruptions that happen after an outbreak, you have in no way proven that the virus was released in order to precipitate a market disruption.
You've got a good start on that thriller novel you've always been meaning to write, but you haven't proven shit.
And that's what Alex is doing.
He's taking a natural consequence and then claiming it's the motivation.
The same goes for things like shutting down the NBA and events with large attendances.
You know, that's a natural consequence.
That's the correct thing to do when there's a concern about an outbreak, at least.
But if you pretend that the consequence is the motivation, you can completely distort reality without ever having to prove your premises.
They wanted to shut down all this stuff in order to cause hysteria, so that's why they were – it's nonsense.
And everybody knows the real situation here is that the Golden State Warriors released this virus in order to make sure that Steph Curry and Clay Thompson can get fully healthy for the end of the NBA season.
They're going to sneak into the eighth seed in the West and they're going to wind up winning the whole thing.
So this strategy, pretending consequences are actually secret motivations, is a large chunk of Alex's conspiracy worldview.
Generally, what he does is yell about secret motivations for consequences he's making up.
Like in the case of him yelling about the globalists staging mass shootings for the secret motivation of taking his guns.
The imagined consequence, him losing his guns, never comes.
But expanded gun regulations and restrictions are the natural consequence you would expect to see from tons of shootings.
He imagines the consequence of the result of the shooting, then pretends that that goal of taking his guns is what motivated the staging of the shooting to begin with.
The current situation is just kind of the inverse.
There are real world consequences happening from this virus.
So Alex is just taking what's happening in the real world and pretending it's what the globalists were trying to do by releasing this maybe race-specific bioweapon, which it's not, and they didn't.
This is the year 2020, and the UN and the Bilderberg group and the Devos group always said, we will use bio-weapon events and plagues to bring in world government and have control.
And that's how you make countries coordinate with each other.
That's how you create international bodies that control it, who will then be your saviors and will also be your jailers while they take control of your life.
I found a lot of Incarda pages and Prison Planet articles, but I didn't find any evidence that the globalists are trying to use bioweapons to achieve their goals of a world government.
He presupposes that should there have been a world government or should there be a world government, it would get us out of this situation because he's saying that they will be our saviors and our jailers, but sure he's still saying that that's because they created the problem that they offer the solution.
And now there's headlines in Politico, the New York Times: oh, the conspiracy theorist in Russia and China and Brazil and Mexico, they're all saying it's man-made.
And then their scientists come out and go, Yeah, we looked at it under an electron microscope, and you can see because it's so small, they had to learn how to slice stuff together.
That small isn't obvious.
I mean, a pizza's been cut up, you see the pieces, you see the pieces.
It's all a blob, and it's all been slapped together.
The microscopic level, it doesn't just come together sweetly.
It's a big slapped together, you know, thing that was then miniaturized so it could be airborne so it could get into your lungs, every part of it made, so that it would spread, so that everybody would end up learning they'd been infected with it.
So, one thing I think is very important to recognize that may often just sort of fade into the background is how unable Alex is to talk about these issues.
You can hear it so clearly here.
He's just fumbling for words because he doesn't really even understand his own conspiracy narratives on any level deeper than some headlines.
Yeah, they swirl them around, and then you get, you know, you go inside a body, and it's like, you know, you're in a submarine and you got to take out a tumor.
So, Joel is talking about this virus situation, and he has something that he wants to bring to the table.
unidentified
Unlike early assurances, COVID-19 is capable of airborne transmission.
They've told us for weeks now that you have to actually contact or sneezing or water droplets with the virus that get on the surface to make this contagious.
Absolutely false.
Princeton University has come out now with a study, which I'll be linking to in Friday's World Affairs Brief.
So there's an important distinction that I need to make.
In past episodes, I've criticized Stuart Rhodes and Francis Boyle for asserting that the virus is airborne with nothing backing their claims up other than their opinion.
There is new information out which calls some of this into question.
So I think we need to address that.
There was a study that came out after our last episode that suggests that it's possible that the coronavirus can be transmitted in the air with the virus living up to about three hours in aerosolized form.
There are many caveats to this.
For one, the paper is not peer-reviewed yet, so there's been no confirmation of the findings.
But even if the study does hold up, it's not clear what conclusion you should draw from it.
As one of the paper's co-authors, Dylan Morris, told Live Science, quote, we still don't know how high a concentration of viable coronavirus is needed in practice to infect a human being, though this is something we are looking to model in the future.
This qualifier is very important because the study just claimed to show that the virus is detectable in the air three hours after it's there, but it very well may be that the amount that survives any relevant amount of time might not be enough to actually transmit the virus.
Another issue is that saying that the virus can survive three hours in aerosolized form doesn't mean the same thing as if you cough, the virus will be in the air for three hours.
There is a possibility here, though, and undoubtedly more study will be done on this front, and we'll know more in the coming days surrounding this.
Another limitation of the study was they didn't even look at how far the virus can travel in the air.
That's not to say that they were wrong not to.
It just wasn't part of the scope of the study.
So just because it can live in the air for a long period of time, it doesn't mean that it'll travel really far, like it's been implied by a lot of these dicks.
That's still an open question.
The point here is that there is a study that indicates that the virus may be transmittable in the air, but I'm here still to tell you that Stuart Rhodes and Francis Boyle were wrong.
They did not have any reason to say that when they said it on the show, just because this is an indication that it's possible that their conclusion was correct, they arrived at it improperly.
Yeah, but with Skousen, like I said, it's a little bit gray.
He has no right to report this as solid fact since the study is still incomplete at this point and is in its pre-peer review phase.
But he has a little bit more wiggle room to speculate than Alex's other friends did because at least he has a source to point to.
It's not a great source to be certain about just yet, but the other dudes were just riffing.
As to Skousen's claim that Princeton put out the study, that's kind of imprecise.
The co-author is a grad student at Princeton, so I'll give him half credit.
One of the larger points here, too, is that the co-author himself, when speaking to Live Science, noted that, quote, even if aerosol transmission can occur, it's unlikely to be the primary force driving the current pandemic.
This is primarily because sneezing and coughing do not generally create aerosol-sized particles, which is what the study was looking at.
It wouldn't exist, according to this article, outside, generally, outside of hospital settings, which is still super relevant.
We already have Mike Adams and Joel Skousen, and there are two more people coming.
Damn.
That alone wouldn't be too weird, but the way Alex is doing the show is super irregular.
Alex will intro the guest, talk to them for a little bit, then disappear, letting the other person basically host the show.
Mike Adams came in and out of breaks on his own, like Mike Adams went back to the show.
And now Joel is introing the show out of commercial breaks, too, with Alex nowhere to be seen.
In the same way that Alex straight up left the show on Wednesday, I think he's dipping in and out and letting his friends take over because he's dealing with lawyers.
This show feels very disorganized and like it's in trouble on this Thursday show.
I don't think it would be that hard, but it would also be a little silly.
So the way Joel thinks the virus got out was that the lab has a bad process for throwing things away.
So someone stole a glove out of the trash and took it to the fish market.
It's unclear who this trash bandit was, but I would guess that they're not involved with the Chinese government because, you know, China was trying to create this big money.
Doctors can just come out and say whatever defense here pretty soon, seeing as it seems like Trump just keeps getting into rooms of people who end up testing positive for coronavirus.
Five, Alex saying that people like Tom Hanks, all they care about is being the top story, is the clearest case of projection I've ever seen in my life.
So Alex is trying to use that clip to say that the Democrats are trying to make this virus a situation about race, which is really weird to hear from him because he keeps calling it a race-specific bioweapon.
Honestly, it sounds almost so silly to say, but there's a lot of restaurants that are feeling the pain of racism where people are literally not patroning Chinese restaurants.
They're not patroning Asian restaurants because of just straight up racism around the coronavirus.
If I were there in the People's Liberation Army, I would have attempted a coup against Xi because, number one, it was obvious to me as a leader of the People's Liberation Army that Xi as a civilian is not qualified to be able to hold on to the power or the illusion of power that he has created in China.
No, it's real interesting to hear Steve say that, though, say that Xi's acting incompetent, particularly in relation to this virus outbreak.
I find this interesting because so far in his appearances on the show, Steve has been the least critical guest as it relates to China that Alex has.
While Alex and his other friends have been running around like Chicken Little, saying shit like, hey, it's over for humanity.
There will only be lone survivors.
Steve has tried to pretend that he was the first person to get the virus in the United States and then he cured himself with large doses of antibiotics, which are not great against viruses, but whatever.
Steve has downplayed the significance of the outbreak, and he's been supportive of Xi's lockdown strategies.
This fantasy of him leading a coup in China is very out of left field for Steve.
But then again, almost everything he says is complete nonsense.
The way Trump needs to counter it is exactly what he's been doing now.
He went out.
He's providing finances.
He's providing a leadership.
He's articulating that leadership.
He's allowing Tony Fauci to express exactly the scientific point of view where Tony, who trained me at Cornell Medical School, said, look, what the fuck?
Get out of here.
I said before on this show, the mom story would be a pandemic.
On the one hand, you have Francis Boyle, who says that Dr. Fauci is a Nazi bioweapon researcher and should be arrested.
His narratives have been compelling for Alex, and Alex has picked up on a lot of them, turning on Fauci after pretending he was an heroic voice in the administration.
It would be easy for Steve to say that he graduated and then he immediately turned around and started teaching, but he didn't.
According to Fauci's bio, after graduating in 1966, Fauci, quote, pursued house staff training in internal medicine at the New York Hospital.
From 1970 to 1971, Fauci was the chief resident at the New York Hospital Cornell Medical Center.
But by that point, Steve had already graduated from Cornell.
And according to his license, Steve did not do an internship or clinical rotations at the New York hospital where Fauci would have been.
I'm going to go out on a limb and just assume that Steve realized Fauci went to the same med school as him, and he decided to build it into his backstory that Fauci was basically his mentor and teacher.
I see no evidence that this was the case, and the timeline does not really even possibly work.
So what these dudes are pushing for is an explicit breach of international law.
There's a little thing called the Outer Space Treaty that was signed back in 1966 when Fauci graduated from Med School.
It forms a lot of the basis for what's known as space law.
The treaty is pretty clear that exploration of space is open to all countries and their purpose needs to be peaceful.
The treaty itself only specifically bans the installation or deployment of nuclear weapons and weapons of mass destruction, but you would kind of have to assume that a star destroyer that Alex is imagining would qualify as a WMD.
My main point here, and this might be the name of my book, if I ever write one, is that Alex Jones really just wants to be one of the bad guys in Star Wars.
He constantly does impressions of Emperor Palpatine.
He comes in from break with the Imperial March constantly.
He almost never talks about the Jedi or the rebels.
Alex is just a fucking sci-fi dork who likes the bad guys.
Alex Jones is telling his viewers that the toothpaste will kill coronavirus.
Well, let's go over the facts approved by lawyers and the Pentagon.
Silver Sol Technology uses InfowarStore.com products.
Facts.
Silver Salt Technology is used as the first line of defense in hospitals and health clinics against viral and bacterial infection.
The Pentagon also uses it.
I'll show you documents in a moment.
Dr. Paul K. Carlton, previously from the Texas A ⁇ M University Health and Science Center, wrote to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that Silver Salt Technology has undergone rigid testing and has been found to kill anthrax, bubonic plague, hospital staff, and SARS from 13 years ago.
We have a copy of the letter on file and have relied upon it for making representations on air.
Silver Sol's own website details how it's been researched by the FDA and cleared in double-blind human and ingestion studies for over the counter sale.
So all the claims being made about the nano silver in this statement that Alex is reading relate to the topical wound gel.
If you were only to have made these claims about the gel being effective against SARS, I probably wouldn't have even brought it up weeks ago when he started selling the toothpaste in gargle the way he has been.
I'm not certain about all the particular details, but he does seem to have some basis to make claims about the topical gel.
It's just that these claims cannot be made about the completely different product because it has some of the same ingredients.
He talks there about the studies and the research there at the end.
You can go to the silver company's website, it's silverbiotics.net or dot com, excuse me, where you'll find a subpage titled Research.
Their research is split into two sections.
The first is nine studies about the wound gel and its use as an over-the-counter medication.
The second section is where Alex gets into trouble because that's about the ingestion studies.
That section is a collection of six studies that silver biotics did involving whether or not it's safe to ingest their silver in the application of the gargle.
None of these studies demonstrate that the same medicinal qualities apply to the ingested silver, just that their product is safe for humans to consume.
You cannot take this compilation of research and conclude that it's ethical or justified to sell the gargle the way that you might the wound gel.
Simply put, Alex has no defense for this.
If he continues to push the issue, and if the state attorney general, like their office, follows through with their warning, Alex is going to be fined a lot of money for this.
That people are getting this and protecting themselves.
And they're just running around tattletailing, trying to misrepresent what's going on.
And it's just not going to work.
No, if you already have this stuff and you already are infected, obviously taking silver isn't going to protect you.
But if it's a front line on your hands, creams, all these things are sold over the counter, it's been proven to give you another buffer against it to take it out.
And if you take it and have it in your throat and things, when it then affects it, it can block at that point.
Even if you ignore all the times that Alex very clearly implied that his toothpaste and gargle could knock out the coronavirus, he's still on the wrong side of this.
At the end there, he's saying that the product being in your throat will have a protective effect against the virus, and that's still not something he can back up with any evidence.
It's just as illegal to promote this as a coronavirus cure as it is to promote it as a means of prevention.
Simply put, if things go the way they should, Alex is fucked, and he's just digging himself deeper.
Digging deeper.
And speaking of digging, let's dig in because Alex has his last guest coming up.
I've been spending the last couple of weeks trying to avoid this hysteria about coronavirus and all of the, you know, it's not entirely clear to me that it even exists.
You walk out in the street and look at Austin.
Everything seems completely fine.
But what I have noticed are all these command and control precedents being set up.
You know, if you can, they just closed down hockey just now a few minutes ago.
Listen, I've no doubt that there is some kind of flu.
I mean, coronavirus has been on the back of bottles of antiseptic or whatever for three years already.
It has been existed for a while, you know.
But the clearly, the hysteria is manufactured, and clearly it is serving one particular side of the political aisle who are going in ham on it for electoral reasons.
I understand Milo being stupid enough to just see that Clorox meme that was going around where someone pointed out that it says coronavirus on the back of the bottle and then not looking into it any further or whatever.
It makes total sense because he's a lazy fraud.
But I have a real problem with Alex agreeing with this narrative that Milo's putting out.
That's because Alex knows damn well that coronavirus is the name of a family of viruses.
Particularly when he's in the middle of a sales pitch for his silver.
This is the piece of information that Alex cannot be unaware of.
So he's either completely checked out as a thinker and just, you know, whatever his dumb guests say, he just presents it as credible, or he knows this is bullshit and he's going along with it to deceive the audience.
There's just no way around it.
And it continues.
They're pretending like they don't know that it's a family of viruses.
So, I mean, if Alex is saying, I could have made more money if I told people to head to the hills, you literally are telling callers that it's now immediately his time.
So there are already existing laws on the books in New Jersey that make it illegal to, quote, cause false public alarm.
All that's happening right now is that the Department of Public Safety in New Jersey has come out and said that they're going to enforce those already existing laws in the situation surrounding this virus.
The rationale is pretty simple.
Quote, individuals who make any false or baseless reports about the coronavirus in Newark can set off a domino effect that can result in injury to residents and visitors and affect schools, houses of worship, businesses, and entire neighborhoods.
I think Milo will be in the clear unless he starts spreading lies specifically about Newark on Alex's show.
There are people who've said that this is a violation of the First Amendment, but it's not really.
It's more just an extension of the principle that says you can't yell fire in a crowded theater.
Your free speech rights don't extend to being able to use them in ways that cause real damage to other people, hence the laws against slander or extortion.
Those are just words you're using, but they aren't protected speech.
Things like this are real concerns for lazy propagandists like Milo and Alex, because deep down they know that when they're questioned, when they're forced to defend their positions, they cannot.
We've seen Alex and his dumb friends under deposition, and you see how they shrivel up and play dumb when they're asked to defend their most basic reporting because they're not basing any of the shit they're saying on anything.
The prospect of being questioned or investigated about causing a false panic is really dangerous for them because all this it's man-made and Obama sold it to China stuff that won't hold up under examination or in court.
And Alex knows that.
Deep down, he knows he's guilty of causing false panic to sell his product and he desperately doesn't want to face that kind of music.
So he hides behind this pathetic shield that everything he does is protected by the First Amendment.
Well, I mean, if your theory that they don't know that they're on mics is kind of supported when they start talking about Alex's appearance, his new look.
You know, under normal circumstances, this combination, I'm always wary of it because I think everybody looks kind of Iranian, you know, with the beard and bald head.
First, I mean, bitches are specifically female dogs.
The construction is bad on this joke.
The delivery is sloppy to the point where even Alex's dishy, edgy comedy buddy Milo tells him to stop it, and he can't even keep up with what Alex is trying to get at.
This, like, honestly, is lower than open mic quality.
Two weeks ago, Alex was trying to pick a fight with Sebastian Gorka.
To be fair, on March 3rd, approximately two weeks prior to this episode, Alex did say that Trump had secretly declared a national emergency about a month prior.
That wasn't true then, and it's still not true.
The fact that Trump begrudgingly declared an emergency in no way proves that there was a secret emergency previously made.
So there's literally no evidence nor suggestion of evidence that the authors of that Indian paper about the coronavirus were threatened or intimidated in any way into retracting their study.
They retracted it because the paper was pre-published before peer review and some peers started reviewing and their work was heavily criticized for being sloppy and irresponsible.
One particularly scathing critique was made by Peking University's Yang Ince, who commented on the paper's allegation that the RNA samples mentioned in the paper had pieces of HIV in them.
Yang said that there was nothing unique about the small sample that is being said to be similar to HIV.
And if that's the only evidence of a connection with HIV, then the same connection could be made between the coronavirus and quote fruit flies, mold, or even lentils.
The paper was roundly criticized for jumping to unearned conclusions and making really baseless assumptions.
And upon receiving that criticism, the authors self-retracted of their own will.
If papers were not allowed to be publicly pre-printed, it never would have reached the second stage of editorial oversight.
Not because of a desire to cover up anything, but because the study is embarrassing from a scientific standpoint.
All the stuff about this study is just Alex making up stuff.
It's just his imagination.
There aren't shadowy forces trying to suppress that information.
There are just other scientists saying that the study is shit.
There is a very serious tonal shift in this Friday episode where Alex is deep in a place of doom and how everyone's dead already.
It's palpable.
If you listen to his show regularly, like you can feel it.
Alex is in a very low place at the beginning of this show.
He's a gigantic narcissist.
So I can't help but think that this has something to do with his personal issues.
In the fallout of his DWI, his ex-wife is appealing for custody of the children, and a judge appears to be receptive.
As a consequence of this petition, arguing that Alex's home is unsafe for children, it also came out that Alex's current wife was arrested for a DWI in August, and the arrest involved a private investigator that Alex had following her calling the police.
Information about his life that, you know, all this stuff paints him in a really fucked up light is coming to the surface, including the, you know, the fact that his DWI was the result of his wife calling the police after a domestic incident between the two of them.
Like, these things are really pretty fucked up, and he probably is really worried about the consequences of that.
It's not, it doesn't, it does not pretend good things.
Simultaneously, Alex initially responded with brash defiance about the media covering him with the silver sales and the way, you know, all the way he was doing that.
But by Friday, the New York Attorney General had sent him that letter, and it's pretty clear that this was not a problem he was going to be able to yell his way out of.
The fact that he got on air and he continued to sell his silver unethically and got defensive about it on the 12th, that's a bad sign.
We're not dead already, but the consequences of Alex's actions are catching up to him in a way that he probably can't undo.
When he says that it's already too late and most of us are already dead, that sounds to me like him trying to express that he feels like his ship has sailed.
The New York Attorney General isn't going to hear him do his blustery, defiant speeches and then say, oh, I guess Alex was right.
The DWI may not cause any direct consequences in his life, but it's looking like it could probably cause some serious situations for him indirectly.
And neither of those things are things he can do anything about now.
On a metaphorical level, those are the viruses he's given himself.
And I think that it has to do with the fact that he has to go get alcohol and drug tests because of the custody situation and the fact that he's gotten this letter from the New York Attorney General by Friday.
So Alex did something I didn't expect on this episode, and that is he directly addresses the fact that the New York Attorney General has sent him a cease and stuff.
The New York Attorney General, who is not a fan of Trump, though she is a lovely lady, said, I ordered selling and marketing products as a treatment for cure for coronavirus on his website.
If he doesn't season assist these activities meanly, I won't hesitate to take legal action and hold him accountable for the harm he's caused.
Then she went on to make even more claims that aren't accurate.
And then it got picked up.
But you know what nobody picked up was the actual letter from the Attorney General.
It doesn't say any of that.
But see, they're smart.
They put out a letter, a PR statement that they said was her statement.
And then in very few of the releases, did they put the actual letter?
And the mind control is incredible because we're so used to honesty from people that are weak.
You're like, yeah, I got the letter from.
I'm like, no, no, the letter's here.
It's a little link down here.
And my crew, like for an hour, I'm like, no, no, they keep going, sir, here's the letter.
Here's the letter.
I said, listen, that's not a letter.
That's the PR firm.
The legal letter says completely opposite of what they're saying.
The New York State Office of the Attorney General is extremely concerned by your representation during the March 7th, 2020 screening of the Alex Jones show about the efficacy of certain products for sale on your website that you assert will cure or prevent the 2019 novel coronavirus, including DNA Force Plus supplements, SilverSol products, and super Bluetooth paste.
Notice, not the wound gel.
The 2019 novel coronavirus poses serious consequences to public health, and consumers are concerned as to how they can best protect themselves and their families.
Your representations may mislead consumers as to the effectiveness of the above-named products in protecting against the current outbreak.
Both the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization have stated that there's no specific medicine to prevent or treat this disease.
Therefore, any misrepresentation that the above-named products are effective at combating and or treating COVID-19 violates New York law.
You're hereby advised to immediately cease and desist from making misleading claims as they violate New York's consumer protection statutes, executive law 6312, and general business law, Article 22A, 349 and 350, which prohibit fraudulent and deceptive business practices and false advertising.
Within 10 business days, please contact the undersigned to confirm you have complied.
Your failure to comply with this directive may result in further action by this office.
Please be advised that the Office of the Attorney General is authorized pursuant to Executive Law 6312 and General Business Law, Article 22A, to bring suit to enjoin any deceptive acts and practices and to seek restitution, damages, and penalties up to $5,000 per violation.
So there's also a little footnote.
And that's when it's talking about the InfoWars website.
This is the footnote.
Quote, the InfowarsStore.com current disclaimer, these products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, prevent any disease.
At the bottom of the product page in minuscule font size makes it unlikely that potential customers will read or even see the disclaimer.
So that's a footnote that they have on the other larger cease and desist with the claims that you're making about the efficacy and effectiveness of your product.
That's the actual letter that the attorney general sent to him.
I don't understand exactly what he's trying to say about there being two secret letters.
This is the letter that he showed on screen.
It's a letter that the media is covering.
I don't know.
These two letters that he's imagining are the same letter.
No, what he's done is he's taken the footnote that says the font isn't big enough on your disclaimer and pretended that that's the entire letter.
So the letter is very clear that you're making misleading statements trying to sell these three products.
So Alex, good luck.
I mean, I know he can trick his own audience with this, but this is like if the New York Attorney General follows through with this business, Alex is in deep trouble.
The conclusion of that paper is that in ancient times, silver had a lot of important antimicrobial functions, but it wasn't really all that important after we got antibiotics.
That study and paper in no way justifies Alex's sales tactics.
It's not a clinical trial of the efficacy of silver as it relates to the prevention or cure of any condition.
It's a literature review.
If this is the best he's got, he is straight fucked.
Also, super weirdly, that whole stretch there when he's talking about his teeth being kicked in and when he accidentally sells his toothpaste as a prevention.
But there's one thing that happens that's interesting, and that Alex has a new claim about why there's everyone, everyone's covering his DWI and silver shit.
It's not something that you would be wildly suspicious about, but I looked into it, and a number of family members of people have spoken to places like the LA Times.
He's a character fucking that's this is how a nine year old thinks that people would think about like a nine year old who has only ever watched fucking action movies and murder and violence over and over and over on screen thinks that this is how you behave as a man.
A real man loves killing.
Does what needs to be done while all the other weak people can't do it and all that shit?
I think maybe someone was able to get through to him that this isn't going to go away just by yelling about this letter that you got from your silver supplier.
The next thing that needs to happen is he's got to deploy the military to the southern border, block the border, block all illegal traffic today, right now.
Now that they've softened up America with this first wave, and China allowing their people to have the infections first means that they have achieved immunity first.
And the fact that they're willing to sacrifice so many of their people and then achieve immunity quickly with a draconian lockdown means they will now have a mobile military force that is immune to the virus that can literally invade and survive California if they choose to do that because their troops won't be affected by the virus.
I mean, you could interpret what Alex is saying two ways.
There's the way he wants you to interpret it, which is, I wish I wasn't selling all these products because people need them in a terrible situation and they're buying them.
And that means that the situation's terrible.
That's the most generous reading of that.
But in reality, I mean, he probably feels a certain amount of guilt about knowing that his silver isn't going to do shit for people.
And he's been pushing it so hard.
He has to have some sort of a guilt about what he's doing.
If they would allow him to cancel his week vacation because of car horns or whatever, that means that no one is going to check him at all.
And the fact that he's continuing to behave very similarly in order to sell his silver, even after getting this letter from the New York Attorney General, means that he's not even able or willing to adjust his behavior when the consequences are made clear to him.
So I'm not going to make a prediction about what's going to happen, but I can see from his behavior, from the changing tone, the sort of triumphant, bombastic glee of the 12th when the media started covering his silver stuff, when he thought he could fight it by yelling and being like, I've got these studies.
Suck it, Mother Jones.
To the 13th, when he's like, uh-oh, I'm still going to be defiant, but I'm really fucking depressed.
Yeah, not paying attention to the present day stuff because it's now gotten to the point where his narrative is compacted.
And we can expect that largely those will be the pieces that move forward.
And he'll try to filter any news that happens through those.
And so I think there will be a little bit of stagnation.
I feel that even in these episodes a bit, as there is tons of stuff happening in the real world surrounding the coronavirus, his content seems to have stagnated because he acted while the concrete was wet.
And now it's solidified a little bit and it becomes a little bit less interesting from a covering him perspective.
