Today, Dan and Jordan continue to track the abhorrent behavior of Alex Jones in the present day. In this installment, Alex is accused of burning a mattress, Alex and his staff make peace with military arresting citizens for breaking curfew, and Dan abuses Jordan with more fun drops.
There's a desire to rationalize the idea of Trump using the military against protesters.
You have those things, and there's an interesting sort of push and pull that Alex is trying to do, where he's trying to pretend that he retained some of his principles while yelling for blood.
If you're out there listening and you're thinking, hey, I enjoyed the show, I'd like to support what these gents do, you can do that by going to our website, knowledgefight.com, clicking the button to support the show, or you can take that generosity and bundle it up really nice and toss it over to some mutual aid kind of situation to help people.
So to be perfectly transparent with you and the audience, Alex did play the video of the man experiencing homelessness who had his mattress set on fire in Austin on his show on Sunday.
And I chose not to include it on our episode that we put out on Monday for a specific reason.
This was an editorial decision that I made because I tried to get to the bottom of what was going on in the video and I couldn't find anything.
In other cases, ambiguous video had some context clues that allowed me to get something of a grip on them.
Like in the case of the bricks in Dallas, we know what building that video is in front of and we can discuss the idea of bricks being planted there in the context of some surrounding clues.
The case of the video of the mattress fire was another thing altogether.
All you had was Alex presenting a video of a mattress being burned and his claim that it was the protesters who set it on fire and other people saying Alex did it.
In that kind of situation, I'm presented with a couple of options.
The first is to accept Alex's framing of the story and work to explain how it's an isolated incident of individuals and it doesn't necessarily implicate the larger character of the protests.
This isn't a good option because it relies wholly on taking Alex's word about an unclear situation and it's usually unwise to do that.
The second option is to speculate that all is not what it appears to be.
This could take the form of saying info has probably set the whole thing up, or that it was the Proud Boys, or any possible entity you could come up with to point the finger at.
This option feels better to someone who has the positions and beliefs I do, because I hate to imagine that someone who would be associated with protests that I support and believe in the cause of would victimize a person experiencing homelessness like that.
It's ugly, and to avoid the feelings that that ugliness would bring up, way too many people have blindly accepted this conclusion with no evidence that InfoWars staged the whole thing.
The third option, and the one I took, was to be cautious and not discuss it until there was more to go on.
Isolated incidents of property damage, even if this egregious, are not so pressing a news item that we should feel like we have to make unforced errors by either making unfounded accusations of a false flag...
Or making the mistake of ceding the ground to Alex and accepting his framing.
Both of those are not winning solutions.
It's hard, and I fully understand people's impulse to craft a theory that Alex or Infowars did this to make protesters look bad, but I have to say that it's been real disheartening and a bummer to watch people do this.
I've heard a number of rationalizations for why someone would assume Alex was behind it.
One is that he's capable of doing something like this.
And I concede that he almost certainly is, and that if there were evidence that he did it, I wouldn't be surprised at all.
But being capable of a false flag publicity stunt is not the same thing as actually doing it.
Another rationalization is that Alex lies all the time about other people, so it's fine to weaponize a conspiracy against him.
And I have something important to say about anyone who might feel that way.
I'm often unfairly accused of being a when they go low, we go high guy.
And I resent that, and this is nothing even close to that in this case in particular.
Absent proof that Infowars set this fire, this is a conspiracy theory that some people are choosing to accept as fact, or likely fact, because it helps them build a narrative more conveniently.
After three and a half years of studying Alex Jones, I'm comfortable saying that this pattern of thinking, of accepting conspiracies absent evidence, is what made Alex Jones into Alex Jones.
We're a show that's about this mentality and how it's corrosive.
We primarily discuss this through the prism of Alex Jones because he's the most flagrant and obvious example of someone who's become super famous, whose entire career is based on conspiracy narratives and building them out of things he cannot ever come close to proving.
But if you look at all the people that we cover, that's essentially one of the big commonalities between them.
Conspiracy thinking and this kind of shit is a manifestation generally of laziness.
And allowing it to be your process in one case only makes it easier to accept as your process the next time.
And on some level, this is why Alex sucks so much.
He's learned over the course of his career that he doesn't need to do better than just make something up and his audience will be trained to accept that level of reasoning as wisdom.
If people are going to be opposed to that kind of information economy that the right wing has thrust us into, it's crucial that they don't become lazy themselves and just use the same tricks.
This isn't because the tricks are inherently wrong, though I do think they are.
It's because they're corrosive.
They work well.
You know, you could smear people like crazy and it works.
Like I said, if you can't prove that he did that, you've given him the perfect gift.
He can point to this as a great piece of evidence that the media and the left, they always lie about him because he's always right about everything and that he's too much of a threat.
Deconstructing and discussing this propaganda is on one level something I love to do because it's interesting to me.
It satisfies an intellectual curiosity and I like learning about fucked up belief systems.
But on another level, it's motivated by a desire to limit the toxic effect people like Alex have on the people they've indoctrinated.
His worldview is nonsensical, and his business is exploitative to the people who have been tricked into following him.
The narrative's changed to suit Alex's needs and maximize his profits.
He's been on the verge of both victory and the globalists shutting him down for 20 years.
The reason that this kind of thing, the accusation that Infowars set this guy's mattress on fire, really, really, really rubs me the wrong way is because it has the potential to expose a lot of people to Infowars and also trick them into thinking that he's right.
There's a decent chance that a lot of people could be led down a very toxic path and convinced that they've found truth because of an unproven accusation that Infowars staged a news story, and I find that unacceptable.
Because then you amplify his message, again, 25 million views, you see all these people, and if he proves himself correctly, or even if there's no proof that he did it...
He can absolutely play the victim, amplify his message, and when people see that he actually is the victim of something that's untrue, or at least impossible to prove, they're going to be like, well, obviously this guy is right, and they're going to pay more attention to him.
And if you just deprive him of this kind of oxygen, he won't be able, or they have a much more difficult time having access to fertile minds to corrupt.
I mean, it is very much like, oh, you say that it's fine to use his own tricks against him, but what you don't understand is he's been telling people that you're using those tricks anyways.
And maybe eventually something will come out that shows that they did stage it, and then we can have the discussion, and that's fine.
But right now...
I've asked multiple people to provide any evidence that this was Infowars doing, and the best anyone has is a blurry picture of a logo that folks say is Infowars, but it's impossible to tell if it is.
The other piece of evidence is that the man who owns the mattress approaches the camera and says, quote, I live here.
What the fuck are you doing?
To me, this doesn't really prove that the man is accusing the camera person of burning the mattress.
Considering that the people who brought the mattress to the fire came from a completely different direction from the camera, it looks more like he was just yelling at the closest camera.
It doesn't really prove anything to me.
But those are the two pieces of evidence that are like, this is proof that Infowars did this, and I just don't accept those as solid evidence.
It's important to remember that the camera person here, too, and the people who throw the mattress on the fire are not associated in the video at all, and that there's no way the camera person would have an InfoWars sign on them.
They weren't being accosted or yelled at, so it's definitely a situation where they were in stealth mode.
So I don't know how this guy would have known that it was an InfoWars camera person.
They're not wearing a fucking little card in their hat that says InfoWars.
They'd be standing around them at the very least, or like yelling at them, and that was not the case.
There's plenty of ways to attack and critique Alex in Infowars that don't require this kind of unforced error, and that don't play directly into Alex's playbook.
This kind of thing just doesn't play, and that's why I think the prudent decision in cases like this is to wait until there's more information available.
If it turns out to be a rogue protester acting reprehensibly, then you can discuss it on that front and it doesn't invalidate the larger protest or the points of what's going on in the world.
And you don't have to then cede the ground to Infowars' editorial position.
And if it does turn out that there is evidence that Infowars did it, you can have the discussion far more responsibly because you can say, here is why.
Well, I think this is probably part of it, or at least a preamble, and that is that in order to really get, you know, through all this, to know what's coming, to know what you gotta do, you have to understand that your enemies are evil.
Let me just succinctly tell you what is coming up.
The German Interior Ministry had a panel of top scientists that looked at COVID-19 in the last three months, and they came out and said it is a total hoax that all the normal seasonal deaths from other things have been attributed to it.
And that it's just a cold virus and that it's destroyed civilization and society and that it was, quote, a false alarm.
Antifa was working with the police captains to order the police to stand down and let them loot and attack in a hope that black Marylanders, Baltimoreans, and others would riot, triggering a nationwide uprising.
And that's why Democrat mayors and governors are promoting it and saying it's good and endorsing it, because that's what they want.
So, Democrat governors and mayors are endorsing everything that's going on, which I don't know if I necessarily see, but even if they did, that would have to mean they work for Alexander Soros.
...lay out the big master plan and what's coming next, because we can analyze the riots and the looting, and it's very interesting, and it's very frightening, and it's very concerning.
We can argue that all day long, and we're going to cover that.
Because, hell, I have to.
If they're successful saying I'm burning down homeless camps, I'm even in more trouble.
That's all over the news right now, that we went and burned down a homeless camp.
The Democrats did it.
We shot video of it, so we're guilty.
So don't worry.
I'm going to cover that some next hour so I can show you what really went on.
It's used to say that Muslims believe that any Muslim-controlled territory is the house of peace, and then everywhere else is the house of war, so they can cause attacks and all that stuff.
a horrible misunderstanding of something that some dude told him at Trump's inauguration which I have seen the video of the guy tell him this Yeah.
I don't understand how you can view the only way we win is to decapitate the globalists, but I don't want to do that, and neither should you, as anything other than, well, we should be killing them.
We should be killing them, and I'm not endorsing killing them, but I'm saying that the only way to win, so if you want to win, which I think you do, Right.
Alex, this is either really childish shit and you're presenting a dumb face to your audience of severity that you're experiencing, or you're fucking these kids up and you gotta stop that stuff.
Drudge has the headline, Trump hides in bunker as protest rage.
That's the message the left's putting out to go attack Trump's hiding in a bunker.
No, that's where Trump directs the COG response.
Let's go back to that headline.
Calls governors weak, fools, and jerks.
And now we need slave reparations, and now we have white people in Washington State and other areas, the police department, kneeling to black people and apologizing for being white.
We're going to pull that up, and we're going to put that on screen for TV viewers and radio listeners here in just a moment.
Video.
George Floyd tried to hide white powder during arrest.
This bombshell reveal corroborates coroner's report of Floyd dying of a heart attack and not asphyxiation and having a panic attack that caused him to die.
So I went and I watched the video on Infowars and it's inconclusive at best.
It looks like it's possible that he had a baggie of something in his hands, but Alex can't prove what that is.
And the bigger picture is, like I said, it doesn't matter.
There's still no reason why Floyd should have been subjected to the treatment he was subjected to by the police, even if he had a small amount of cocaine on him.
Alex is trying to use this to argue that Floyd wasn't killed by the officer, but he had a heart attack from being on cocaine.
But even if he had cocaine in his hands, that doesn't mean he was on it or it was in his system or that he had a heart attack, any of that stuff.
He's just drawing conclusions that don't match.
Further, neither of the preliminary autopsies that have come out have proven that he had drugs in his system at this point.
Later, there will be one that says that he had traces of fentanyl in his system.
And so that is true later.
But at this point, the two preliminary autopsies that have come out had not specified any evidence.
So at the point also that Alex is claiming that Floyd dropped this cocaine, he was already, you know, basically under police custody.
They would go on to kill him, and at that point, this is a huge crime scene, you know?
This is a big crime scene.
I have absolutely zero doubt that if George Floyd had dropped cocaine, that it would have been found, and it would have been a part of the police report, looking to find any sort of extenuating circumstances that could justify the police's actions.
It's really inappropriate for Alex to jump to conclusions just based on something one of his interns saw in a video.
Because here's the reality.
Floyd was wearing a sleeveless shirt, and at no point does he go into his pockets.
If you read the police report, it makes no sense that this baggie could have been in his hand the whole time.
From the report, quote, As Officer Lane began speaking with Mr. Floyd, he pulled a gun out and pointed it at Mr. Floyd's open window and directed Mr. Floyd to show his hands.
It seems like in the process of showing his hands, this would have been revealed.
It doesn't seem likely.
Here's what I think the video shows, and I should tell you I can't prove this, but it's a possible explanation.
Right before this supposed baggie of white powder appears to drop out of Floyd's hand, he's backed against the wall by police and slid down into a sitting position.
He's coming down this wall, hands behind his back.
You can clearly see that this wall that he's sliding down is painted white, with some of the paint missing from the side panel, clearly visible in the video shot.
I think it's entirely possible that as he was being slid into a sitting position, his arms and back scraped against the wall, and what Alex is calling a bag of white powder is really just a paint chip.
I don't know that, but it's a possible explanation for the phenomenon that Alex is showing in this video.
I can't definitively say what the video shows, but I can say that Alex is reporting very irresponsibly here because he's desperate to tarnish the victim of police violence because it works for his narrative.
Alex discusses more stuff about George Floyd, and again, he's doing this with the hyper-intention of trying to smear him.
I wonder what kind of research Alex did about George Floyd.
I'm curious how he missed the article in Christianity Today titled, quote, George Floyd left a gospel legacy in Houston.
Just a small walk through that memorial article would have told Alex that Floyd had been involved in ministry in Houston before, quote, moving to Minneapolis for a job interview through a Christian work program.
One of the people who worked with him at the church in Houston said, quote, the things that he would say to young men always reference that God trumps street culture.
I think he wanted to see young men put guns down and have Jesus instead of the streets.
Another fellow churchgoer said, quote, His faith was a heart for the third ward that was radically changed by the gospel, and his mission was empowering other believers to be able to come in and push that gospel forth.
I would assume that Alex has just read various tweets from racists and decided that counts as research.
He's invested in telling this story one particular way, and it's important to recognize that and recognize why.
So I can't deny that Alex has been saying that unrest might be coming, and he does like to scare his audience with images of race wars pretty regularly, but it would be unfair to say that this has been a solid prediction.
One of the things that Alex does is make tons and tons of predictions, which is an intentional strategy that he employs to hopefully be right about one of them.
I can't count the number of times he's said that he knows the globalists are going to try to kill Trump within the next week or two.
These predictions have never come true, but his audience is trained to ignore those failed predictions and only focus on vague stuff he can pretend he was accurate about.
In the midst of the coronavirus stuff, Alex did talk about social unrest, but it was mostly about financial concerns related to the lockdown.
It didn't come in the form of protests against systemic police violence and police non-responsiveness to violence against non-white persons.
Alex was kind of in the mode of saying that the lockdown was going to crush the economy and then everyone would be starving and that would cause upheaval, as he discussed when he ranted about eating his neighbors.
That prediction was literally nothing like we're seeing happening right now, so even if he can massage things for his audience to make it look prophetic, he was not.
So Alex's big overarching prediction, like what he was talking about, like what comes after things during the coronavirus coverage days, was that the whole coronavirus thing was a test run, and it was leading to mandatory vaccines and also another biological weapon release that would kill billions of people.
But because Alex rambles about bullshit pretty much every day and so much of it, he can almost certainly find some clip from the last few months of him yelling about race wars or some shit and then pretend that this was all I was saying was going to happen.
So, this is a pretty standard refrain that you hear from racists, arguing that black people wouldn't get killed if they would just resist the police.
It's a standard trick that's used to justify the brand of state-backed violence they support.
While keeping intact their complaints about the imaginary state violence they're against, like fears about gun regulations and shit.
It's all bullshit.
One of the other cases that comes up very often in relation to the current protests is the killing of Breonna Taylor.
Taylor was killed in her home after police executed a no-knock search warrant because they thought that a suspected drug dealer kept drugs and money in that home.
That dude did not live there, and he'd already been arrested, but the cops for some reason felt it important to do a no-knock, which is really dangerous.
It was about 12.40 at night, so Breonna's boyfriend, Kenneth Walker, thought that they were home invaders, so he pulled out a gun and fired one shot.
Police returned a ton of fire, killing Taylor and sending bullets into the next home, risking hitting a pregnant woman and a five-year-old child.
Kenneth Walker legally owned his firearm, and this is a person whose home had been invaded, so someone like Alex should firmly believe that he has every right to protect himself in those circumstances.
So what about that, Savannah?
How did Breonna Taylor act that led to her death?
If Savannah's argument is that if you don't resist arrest, you won't be killed, I flatly reject that argument.
There are far too many cases that serve as counterexamples, and all Savannah is doing here is joining the Infowars game of trying to make non-white people's murders their own fault, which is bullshit, and an expression of gross racism.
Yeah, frankly, we're even past that whole, like, I don't support what they did, I don't think that it's right, I don't think they should have done that, and we're right into...
Well, if he wasn't resisting arrest, he wouldn't have died.
It's his fault.
I think they're even doing the right thing by doing what they're doing.
I think that there's a number of people who maybe have been there for like 15 years or so and maybe they gradually, like the water boiled while they were in it and they're the lobsters who didn't realize it.
If I had to guess what's going on here, some dumb-dumb online found a brick company to link to traditional globalist boogeymen, and now Alex is reporting that they're behind the existence of bricks at protests.
In 1968, they changed their name to First Worth Corporation and then merged with two other companies, the Justin Companies from Fort Worth, Texas, and Louisiana Concrete Products.
In 1972, they formally changed their name to Justin Industries Incorporated.
Underneath this umbrella, there are a bunch of subsidiary businesses, including Acme Brick, as well as Featherlight Building Products and Justin Boot Company.
In the year 2000, Berkshire Hathaway acquired Justin Industries, which includes all those subsidiary businesses.
Alex seems to be fucking up the whole thing though, because Bill Gates isn't the guy you talk about with Berkshire Hathaway.
That's the ice cream lover himself, Warren Buffett.
Bill Gates is on the board of Berkshire Hathaway, primarily involved with things involving charitable initiatives, but he barely has any stock compared to Buffett.
Warren Buffett is the guy who you point fingers at with Berkshire Hathaway.
And this is a lazy attempt for Alex to make Bill Gates connect to your social unrest narratives.
In the past weeks, she's posted clearly fake Craigslist posts that are about recruiting crisis actors, tons of stuff about Plandemic, and one particularly anti-Semitic post about how Mel Gibson, quote, tried to expose the scum in 2017.
the tweet that she's commenting on there is about how Gibson said that, quote, Hollywood is a den of parasites who feast on the blood of kids, which sounds a whole lot like a blood libel kind of thing, particularly coming from Mel Gibson, considering that his dad is a Holocaust denier, and in 2006 when he got arrested for drunk driving, This was part of the police report.
So also, there was a new video that was going around which is purporting to show police with a truck full of bricks that's then meant to prove that they were leaving the bricks somewhere strategically in order for protesters to throw them and to justify a violent police response.
Presumably they're working for Soros if you're on the right, or they're just cops if you're not.
I'm not going to say that it's impossible that there are some instances of police trying to facilitate situations where they could get people to respond violently or rationalize themselves.
And honestly, it's been pretty sad seeing it get passed around by people I've seen retweeted.
The tweet that everyone was retweeting was from an account named Alexander Parker, followed by three stars, which is a dead giveaway that this is a QAnon account.
This is further established by them tagging praying a medic in the tweet, who is a huge QAnon booster.
Also tagged in the tweet is an account called...
Punish Dem 1776, which speaks for itself.
Also, their bio has where we go one, we go all in it.
Within the last day, Alexander Parker has retweeted Jack Posobiec multiple times, and also a QAnon image of Trump walking out of the White House with a sword in his hand and angel wings drawn on him.
this video doesn't show anything conclusive and it's being spread by q anon accounts so it might be wise to pump the brakes on going all in on it just because it has the optics of confirming the story you want to be true and look it might be the case that these cops in boston were planting bricks i have no idea but that video does not show that there are plenty of other explanations for what could be going on in that video that are just being ignored and i don't think that's cool i think
But I will tell everybody now, you should not be out after dart in any major urban area, and you should be packing, and you should be locking your doors, and you should be watching your ass.
They've now come up with a medical exam in a report that he had enough fentanyl in his system to kill four or five people.
And he was resisting and he was out of control and the police were scared and didn't pay attention and put their knee on his neck and he had a heart attack and died.
So the Hennepin County Medical Examiner has released a report that said that Floyd has had, quote, traces of fentanyl and methamphetamine use in his system.
This is pretty imprecise, but you can see how Alex is taking that information and embellishing it into him having enough fentanyl in him to kill four or five people.
Whether he was on drugs or not, whether he had drugs on him or not, all of it is kind of irrelevant to the larger issue and that is that neither of those things make his death okay.
All of this stuff Alex is doing is an attempt to make his death okay because if he's forced to get as mad about this man being murdered by the police as he might be if, I don't know, a state required background checks for private sales of guns, that would have a cascading effect and all of his narratives would basically fall apart because they're all based on white.
And once he starts to give ground to that, it will have a domino effect.
So, in this next clip, Alex complains, you know, certainly when there were businesses having stuff stolen from it, the refrain was, think of the businesses.
I think there's probably a reason why they're not releasing names.
It doesn't have anything to do with a desire not to humanize folks.
Anyway, there are four cops that were shot in St. Louis on Monday night.
Three were hit in the foot or leg and the fourth was shot in the arm and all are recovering.
As of the time of this recording, I can find no information on who shot them, so I have no idea if it was people associated with the protests or not.
In Las Vegas, a cop was shot and killed, and that is not good.
The shooter was arrested and is in custody, but there's no information I can find about the perpetrator as of the time of recording.
However, that night, Las Vegas police also shot and killed someone at a protest who they said was reaching for a firearm.
I don't know what the reality of that story is, but that's absent from Alex's coverage.
Also, since our last episode, Louisville police shot and killed barbecue restaurant owner David McCaddy, which led to the police chief being fired.
I'm not gonna sit here and justify indiscriminately firing guns at police, but I am going to say that if you're gonna cover that story, it's your responsibility to also point out that there is a high level of police brutality that's being documented across the country.
These aren't borderline cases either.
These are instances of people marching or congregating peacefully only to have tear gas and progressive grenades deployed on them.
If you're telling the story of the police being attacked and not talking about the other side, you're explicitly trying to do PR work for the police and you're just trying to hide their actions.
These people must be so insulated from viewing any of these videos.
Because you can't see.
There's so many of them.
You can't sit there.
Like, why can't you go on that fucking YouTube algorithm and see one of those and then have them recommend every single one of them until you're radicalized like fucking one of us?
And he'd have to keep doing that over and over and over again.
And I just find it pretty difficult to believe that someone who's yelled about the police and brutality...
For so long.
So performatively.
It's so funny that this guy who made multiple documentaries about the police state would be around when police were enacting curfews and sending in National Guard against protesters and he would be on the side of the police.
I do remember hearing some folks, like back in the stand-up days, hearing folks like maybe late at night at a party talking about how like, you know...
Well, anxiety is like real going through a hard time.
So, in this next clip, Alex talks about Susan Rice has come out on TV and talked about how some of this stuff that's going on is out of the Russian playbook.
So the argument that Susan Rice was making on CNN is that it was seen during her time in the Obama administration that Russian actors use social media accounts to play up both sides of divisive issues and get people fighting with each other.
She said that she had no idea if that was the case now, since, quote, I'm not reading the intelligence today or these days.
She went on to say that we cannot allow ourselves to be distracted, quote, from the real problems we have in this country that are longstanding, centuries old, and need to be addressed responsibly.
I don't particularly care about this talking point until there's a little more information behind it than this, but even Susan Rice wasn't saying these protests are the results of Russian meddling.
That's Alex's assertion, though, which is weird.
Susan Rice is a big globalist in Alex's eyes, so how does it make sense that she would be blaming Russia for the thing that her team wants to happen?
I thought that Russia was the thing that they used against things they didn't like, like Trump.
Alex's narratives make no sense, even just on a surface level.
And these couple episodes are really full of shit like this, man.
Alex seems like a guy at a coke party at 3am trying to explain to you why his band never took off.
There are a ton of InfoWars associates and employees who are still on Twitter, and they were posting a bunch of videos that don't really definitively prove that Alex didn't burn the mattress, but do show a longer stretch of time.
Greg Reese, Adan Salazar, Caitlin Bennett, Savannah Hernandez, and then Millie Weaver, Mark Dice, and Paul Joseph Watson, all three of those last ones are confirmed accounts.
They're all still on Twitter, and they've been posting their protestations of InfoWars and innocents.
In order to get right with the script, Twitter just needs to let Alex back on, or ban all of those people.
Because the way it is right now plays entirely into Alex's optics.
He can pretend to be totally banned and censored, while still having conduits with hundreds of thousands of followers to promote his content on the platform.
From a propaganda standpoint, what he has with Twitter right now is a win-win.
The rights that's protected in the Constitution is a right that says Congress shall make no law abridging the right of the people peaceably to assemble.
Peaceably.
So if people are out there and they're burning down police precincts and destroying malls and assaulting people and so forth and so on, they are not protected by the Constitution of the United States.
What they are actually doing qualifies as insurrection.
And when insurrection becomes widespread, which it has been lately, I think we need to remember that the president is the commander-in-chief.
What's he the commander-in-chief of, Alan?
He's the commander-in-chief of the Army and Navy.
People know that.
But he's also the commander-in-chief of the militia of the several states when called into the actual service of the United States.
You can say that burning a police station isn't covered by the Constitution or whatever, and maybe you could have an interesting conversation about that.
But if you're going to do that, then you need to be looking at every single instance where police acted upon peaceful...
Protesters and demonstrators and take that just as seriously as you would someone breaking a window.
And I don't see any of that coming from Alex's side at all.
And to me, that means this conversation is probably stupid.
So listening to that clip, you just realize how fucking pathetic Alex is.
Like here he is suggesting that the solution for Trump in this situation is to raid and arrest the people running Antifa, like apparently Hillary Clinton.
In 2015 and 2016, on the campaign trail, the chant of Lock Her Up broke out at every Trump rally.
People wore Hillary for prison shirts.
The whole thing was such a force in his base that at one of the presidential debates, Trump said, quote, If I win, I'm going to instruct my attorney general to get a special prosecutor to look into your situation.
CNN found at least 11 instances of Trump threatening to lock Hillary up, where Trump is telling crowds at his rallies that he was going to get a special prosecutor involved.
He didn't do that, because he was never going to do that.
It was all a publicity strategy.
But here, years later, you have Alex desperately still trying to make it happen.
You have him essentially begging his god-king dictator to enact vengeance on his imagined enemy.
Just see him just begging, like, oh, please, sir, I've contradicted all my principles for you.
I've been sick the last few months with what's happening.
But the last few days, I decided I'm not going to be sick, but I like it.
Because let me tell you, all you trendies and all you people that have lived off this freedom and pissed on it, I swear to God, before we're done, you're going to pay bad.
You want to fight?
You're going to get one.
You know you are, too, when I get my hands around your neck, Soros, politically.
He has a responsibility to prove that Acme Brick delivered bricks specifically for these protests to turn violent in 20 cities across the United States.
die politically God kill him you know you're the you're the great avenger the vengeance belongs to you I get it I got believe me you gotta humble us for what we've done Politically.
Sitting here watching scrotomize Soros and all these other people that just like, that they want us to die because they're already dead.
And I just want to tell Soros this, you need to die.
So anyway, I guess she's got these documents and what have you, but she hasn't released them, so I don't have any way to assess what she's even talking about.
Now they're, everybody's Antifa was to make them feel powerful.
Look, everyone's, exactly, everyone's wearing a mask.
I think I got a call from a high-level, really smart guy that goes, like two weeks ago, he goes, listen, the mask or the cover of the criminal takeover, the mask is meant to make Antifa believe this is their code.
I'm going to pause right there and say I kind of agree with that, because it's certainly not talent, insight, competence, literacy, correctness, integrity, any of those things.
So, Millie's still on, and in this next clip, you hear her expressing a mentality that should, like, I mean, maybe at some point in the history of Infowars would straight up get you fired.
And we're going to release stuff tomorrow starting, we already released video today of private internal conferences where...
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is calling for more uprising and more continuation of the riots that we're seeing, even though publicly she's saying to not, she's saying everyone should not be writing.
So I watched the video that Millie released of AOC.
It's not her saying that there should be more uprisings or anything.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is making the point that the way that we can make all of this end is to address the issues that are motivating people to protest in the first place.
That's an argument that's super threatening to Alex because deep down he fears change and he's super invested in the status quo.
Conversations that discuss a possible shifting of traditional power dynamics is something he can't handle and he instinctually labels as the work of the globalists.
We'll see what Milley ends up releasing, but I want to say this now.
When this ends up being a disappointment, it won't matter for Alex's audience.
This isn't about any actual documents they got from a server, or else I would assume Millie might have dropped something interesting at all in this interview.
It's kind of just a theatrical piece that exists in order for Alex to say stuff like this.
Alex needs his own Project Veritas-style thing to embellish and make stories up about, and Millie has provided that.
I have no idea if they have a mole at all, or even if they have this server mirrored.
This recording of AOC is just a recorded Zoom call that she could have gotten some other way, and the only things that she's posted are screenshots of public websites and a guy's LinkedIn page.
So Alex has Rex on, and we're not going to talk about this too much, but there are a couple points that I think are worth bringing up.
And obviously, I'm not going to sit here and waste my time talking about how fucked up it is that Alex is talking about how his son beat up a guy in a convenience store.
So, at the point where Alex chose to terminate those pregnancies, his part in the whole thing was done.
His sperm had fertilized their egg, and all that didn't happen was the fetus didn't develop into a human child.
So, here's my point.
If Alex's theory about race memory means anything, then either Rex doesn't have Alex's race memory, and in fact, the inheritor of that race memory was aborted, or Rex does have race memory, then it can't have anything to do with the father, if that's the case.
Because all his beliefs really are at the core of them.
They're just a means to hide his chauvinist worldview behind romantic, mystical ideas.
He's never even given any thought to the process he believes is the most important thing in the world.
He's just making all this shit up so he can sound deep as opposed to just saying what he means and that is that he believes that women are inferior to men inherently.
I hate talking about Alex's family because I try to go out of my way to leave his personal life alone.
This, however, was something that I think is important to bring up.
If you ever need an example of how bigotry is a learned behavior, here you have it.
There's no indication that the person that Rex beat up was from Somalia or a Muslim, but that song has become a code on Alex's show.
The person who made the Bon Iver parody with Alex was trying to make fun of him, but for a while, Alex used it whenever he found an instance of any violence that was done by a person who happened to be a Muslim, and he transformed it into a thing where he was singing the song to show how everyone always makes fun of him, but he's actually right about it all.
This is basically the same sort of gift that you're giving when you accuse him of setting a mattress on fire.
We come to the end of this, and something that I find a little bit interesting is that he's really...
Pretty much staying on similar tracks that he's been on in terms of trying to invalidate George Floyd's murder, trying to find ways in order to make it palatable to his audience in a way that's like, ah, not a big deal.
And then second, the conspiracy theorizing about the protests, the demonstrations.
All this sort of stuff is continuing unabated.
You know, you have the brick narrative Alex has found a great amount of comfort in.
He's got a ratings bonanza coming through with the mattress fire.
And then the other thing you see trajectory-wise is an intensifying of the calls for blood.
You're seeing that, and you're seeing him have people like Alan Keyes come on to give a weird constitutional rationalization for posseing up and having...
I guess armed civilians fighting alongside National Guard people or whatever, which seems nightmarish.
