dan friesen
Hey, everybody.
Welcome back to Knowledge Fight.
I'm Dan.
jordan holmes
I'm Jordan.
dan friesen
We're a couple dudes like to sit around, drink novelty beverages, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
Oh, indeed we are, Dan.
dan friesen
Jordan.
unidentified
Dan.
jordan holmes
Jordan.
unidentified
I have a quick question for you.
dan friesen
What's up?
jordan holmes
What's your bright spot today?
dan friesen
Well, my bright spot today, Jordan, is that...
I've been pretty busy all day, and I had a little bit of time to...
I did laundry earlier, and so I was listening to another podcast while I was doing my laundry, and I was thrilled to find...
That my dear friend, old friend, I'm overselling this a little bit, I've met him a couple times, but Colt Cabana was on the new episode of the Doughboys.
jordan holmes
Oh, well, hey!
dan friesen
Yeah, it was really fun, and the reason it's a bright spot is because he's delightful, but also...
jordan holmes
Yeah, Colt's great.
dan friesen
He said on there, he's talking to Nick and Mitch, and he brought up...
That he doesn't eat anything out of the sea.
jordan holmes
Sure!
dan friesen
And this is a position that I've had for a long time.
And I was thrilled to hear.
I felt seen.
I felt like I had someone making this position publicly in a way that I've been beaten down for so many times.
And I appreciate that.
So thanks, Colt.
jordan holmes
Like finding the only other never nude out there.
dan friesen
I didn't know.
jordan holmes
It's a bright spot for you.
I understand.
dan friesen
I didn't know that Colt had the same aversion to eating anything out of the ocean.
jordan holmes
Seafood is just...
dan friesen
I applaud that.
jordan holmes
Nothing.
unidentified
Nothing.
jordan holmes
Anything from the water.
dan friesen
No, get it out of here.
jordan holmes
Not specifically seas.
Not like specifically salt water.
dan friesen
No, just anything.
No fish.
No seafood.
Anything like that.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Although I think he might have a harder line than I do because I think like...
It's like seaweed might be okay.
jordan holmes
Seaweed's okay for me.
dan friesen
Yeah, that might be alright for me.
I'm more animals.
jordan holmes
Yeah, right, right, right.
dan friesen
But I still think that he and I can find common cause on this.
And I appreciate it.
I haven't had a chance to finish the episode, but what I listen to is fun.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that sounds great.
dan friesen
So what about you?
jordan holmes
Me, Dan?
This is a surprise reverse plant watch.
You gave me the cantaloupe.
dan friesen
I did.
It's made a home at your apartment.
jordan holmes
I've been trying my best to grow it, and I recently...
I stopped fucking with it.
And it's doing a lot better.
I'm not good with plants.
dan friesen
Yeah, it's tough.
You don't want to micromanage too much.
jordan holmes
Kept moving it from spot to spot.
Like, is this better?
Let me give you an idea of how bad I am with plants.
At my old place, one day I realized that the plant that my friend had given me...
I hadn't watered it in forever.
So I watered it, and I was like, this is a whole new leaf for me.
Not a pun absolutely intended.
I'm going to take care of this plant a lot better.
And then when I went to water it the next day, I remembered that this was a fake plant, and I had not watered it for at least two years.
dan friesen
And it made it just fine.
jordan holmes
It was fine.
It was just fine.
I didn't need any help.
dan friesen
I was thinking that the twist of this story was going to be that it's a succulent, and you killed it by watering it.
jordan holmes
I would love to have killed it, but it was never even alive in the first place.
dan friesen
Having plants and working on them, it's an interesting exercise in taking care and also, at the same time, learning when.
You just gotta let it be.
jordan holmes
Totally, totally.
dan friesen
And I'm enjoying that part of the process of this, too.
I could hawk over these plants and just be really worried about every single leaf, or I could check in every day or so.
Some of this stuff, just let it be.
We'll see what happens in a couple days.
It's nice.
It's a balance.
I'm doing my best.
jordan holmes
I'm watering it in the morning, making sure that I do it.
dan friesen
That's good.
jordan holmes
I'm doing good.
I'm doing good.
I'm pretty proud of myself.
dan friesen
Awesome.
I'm glad you haven't killed it yet.
jordan holmes
Yeah, me too.
dan friesen
It's not been that long, but still, you could have.
jordan holmes
I could have.
I might have.
dan friesen
So, everybody listening out there, if there's a little bit of a slightly different sound, I apologize for that.
We've had some real issues in the beginning of this episode.
Sorry about that.
If it sounds a little bit weird, hopefully we'll be able to figure out what the deal is.
But, Jordan, today we have an interesting episode to go over.
We're talking about September 3rd, 2020.
I'm Dan, this is 2020.
unidentified
Oh, God damn it.
dan friesen
And, you know, I wanted to jump to the present as much as possible, so we're recording this on Thursday.
This is Thursday's episode.
jordan holmes
This is today's episode, yeah.
dan friesen
And Alex is in a bit of a mood.
Oh, why?
I don't know.
Something's going on in his life, and it'll be interesting to try and figure out what...
That is.
Who knows?
But before we get to today's episode, we're going to take a little moment to say thank you to some folks who signed up and are supporting the show.
jordan holmes
Oh, that's a great idea.
dan friesen
So first, this is actually interesting.
This person sent me an email, and they asked if they could get a shout-out for donating to charity.
And I said, we never said that, but yes, of course.
jordan holmes
Yeah, why wouldn't we?
dan friesen
Yeah, so thanks, Geological.
Thank you so much.
You are now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Hey, thanks Geological!

jordan holmes
Thank you, Andrew.
dan friesen
Thank you.
If you're out there listening or thinking, hey, I enjoy 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 that says support the show, or...
jordan holmes
You could take that generosity.
You could put that in a little potting plant.
All right?
Right next to a cantaloupe.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
Put it right there.
Now, the cantaloupe, it's going to take a little bit of time to germinate.
You want to take care of it, but at the same time, you want to leave it alone.
So focus more on the generosity.
See that generosity spring from the dirt.
Take that to your local charity or bail fund.
dan friesen
There you go.
jordan holmes
And give it up to them.
dan friesen
That sounds like a plan.
jordan holmes
I like it.
dan friesen
So, Jordan, before we get to the episode proper, we can take a little look at the mailbag zip.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
So this is very exciting.
My wall art is starting to come together a little bit.
We have the very well-reviewed A painting of Leo Zagami.
jordan holmes
Oh, for sure, yeah.
dan friesen
That is up there.
That is really the centerpiece of decorations.
jordan holmes
Yeoman's work.
dan friesen
And then along with that, we've got this lovely cross-stitch of hands and prayer.
It says, it's time to pray.
jordan holmes
Beautiful.
dan friesen
And then next to it, guns shooting roses out of them.
jordan holmes
A couple guns and roses.
dan friesen
Yeah, fantastic.
And I'd like to thank Emma for sending that our way.
jordan holmes
Yes, thank you very much, Emma.
dan friesen
It's beautiful.
Starting to get a real decor going.
jordan holmes
It is looking nice.
It is looking nice.
dan friesen
There's the beginnings of decor.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
You have stages of your life up here.
You've got the old, you've got the brand new plants, and you've got the gifts on either side.
dan friesen
And some Illuminati cards.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
dan friesen
So that's awesome.
I really appreciate that.
It's starting to feel a lot more like Christmas and home.
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
Also, I'd like to thank Sarah.
Got some packages of foreign treats all over the world.
I think one box is just Polish stuff.
jordan holmes
A whole box of Polish stuff.
dan friesen
And then the other one is Scattershot from all over the world.
I appreciate that.
I haven't actually got a chance to try any of those yet, but pretty cool.
jordan holmes
That sounds great.
dan friesen
Yeah, and also, while we're just dicking around a little bit here at the beginning, let's check in on the year of the...
We are now up to 240 seltzers.
jordan holmes
That's a lot of seltzers.
dan friesen
That's a lot of seltzers.
Getting really close to the halfway point.
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
And I have to say that there's no chance we would ever be making this, or even have the energy to keep going, as I do right now, if it weren't for the people out there listening.
jordan holmes
100%.
dan friesen
And sending in seltzers, quite frankly.
jordan holmes
There is no reason for this to continue on, but they're strongly pushing you forward.
dan friesen
I have tried all the Jelly Belly flavors now.
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
And Orange Sherbet is the leader in the clubhouse.
jordan holmes
Top of the clubhouse.
dan friesen
Yes, that was the best that came in at a 70. It broke the 70 mark, which is pretty impressive.
jordan holmes
That's pretty good.
dan friesen
Low point, Pina Colada.
jordan holmes
Not a surprise.
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
Not a surprise.
dan friesen
What's in a Pina Colada that you think I don't like?
jordan holmes
I can't think of anything in specific.
You love...
What all goes into a pina colada?
There's some sort of citrus.
dan friesen
Uh-huh.
jordan holmes
And then that's...
What's that one white milky thing?
dan friesen
I don't know.
unidentified
Oh.
jordan holmes
Okay, well then we'll move on.
dan friesen
Yeah, coconut.
unidentified
Boo.
dan friesen
But interestingly, there was a grapefruit flavor, and I thought it was actually really well done.
It tastes pretty good.
69 out of 100 for the grapefruit.
jordan holmes
Oh boy.
dan friesen
Pina colada, 48. Not good.
jordan holmes
Not good.
dan friesen
Not good.
jordan holmes
Below the 50 mark is trouble.
dan friesen
So Jordan, today, this episode is really strange to me, because there's one thing that seems to be going on throughout it.
And it's exactly what we called ourselves out about at the end of our last episode, which was Alex is desperately in need of money.
jordan holmes
Of course!
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Of course.
dan friesen
And so it's going to get into a little bit of a murky territory where I'm going to play the role of saying, this doesn't mean anything.
And maybe it doesn't.
But before we get to any of that, here's an out-of-context drop that just made me...
I love this.
This is great.
alex jones
Being a, quote, libertarian.
Fiscally, economically, was the dumbest thing I ever did.
dan friesen
Wow.
jordan holmes
I mean, yeah.
dan friesen
I mean, people said that back then.
If that's the case.
jordan holmes
Everyone who's ever heard of libertarianism is like, oh, that's a terrible idea.
Sooner or later.
dan friesen
Sure.
I mean, certainly there are things that everybody's been wrong about, and it's cool.
To be able to cop to them.
But so much of Alex's, like, foundation of what his whole operation was about was based on libertarian principles.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Ron Paul's the only person who can, you know, like, all that shit.
For him to be here in 2020 and be like, being a libertarian was the stupidest thing I've ever done.
It's like, go fuck yourself, you asshole.
jordan holmes
You run 20 years of lives with your bullshit and now you're going to disavow it.
dan friesen
If you do think that now, why should we trust that what you're on now is any better?
jordan holmes
Because past behavior is the best predictor of future.
Oh shit, no, that's not good.
dan friesen
To quote Alex Jones, past behavior.
So, Alex is starting off the show with a pretty severe situation.
Trump is under siege is basically what's going on.
alex jones
Trump was desperately trying to prop up things to at least get control of the government so we could negotiate to the Chi-Coms and others because we had been positioned for total collapse and humiliation.
But there were enough loyal forces to the republic and to sanity and to their own self-interest who were not on the globalist payroll to rally Against the NWO, whose great sin was being arrogant, and get Trump in.
But getting Trump in just got us back on the field to play this deadly game for all the chips and all the marbles in our children's future.
And so, obviously, I talked to Roger Stone, but I talked to a lot more people than that, and I'm going to leave it at that because I've been asked not to get into who I talked to.
I can tell you the president is under absolute siege.
I can tell you the level of harassment, the things he's going through.
I've been told, Jones, we know what you're going through.
You're lucky you're only going through this.
And I've been told what the president's going through directly by...
I'll leave it at that.
dan friesen
Roger Stone.
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Exactly, Roger Stone.
dan friesen
I always love that when I hear, like, hey, I talked to Roger Stone and a bunch of other people, and here's something.
I didn't just get it from Roger Stone.
jordan holmes
I didn't just talk to Roger Stone.
A lot of people keep telling me that I just get stuff from Roger Stone, so I'm very insecure about it, because yes, of course I get stuff from just Roger Stone.
dan friesen
The verbal patterns are very suspicious.
So, um, there's a real sense of, like...
This election could go either way in Alex.
This is close.
It's close stuff.
jordan holmes
Totally.
dan friesen
But at the same time, he's saying all the time that it's not close.
The only way it's close is because of fraud and fake polling.
But apparently, it's a fucking close situation.
jordan holmes
It really is, but internal polling shows that it's not.
dan friesen
And anybody who tells you that it's not close is a deceiver.
alex jones
Anyone telling you that this isn't a close football game is working for the enemy.
Trump has his ads running that dire straits America will end, that we are in incredible trouble, that the enemy is dangerous, that they will absolutely dominate and enslave you and break you financially if they get control, and it's all true.
And then you've got other people telling you everything's fine, trust the plan, go to sleep, everything's good.
That's not true, ladies and gentlemen.
And I'm not here fighting with the Q people.
I'm talking about folks in general that think Trump's a shoe-in and, oh, the polls show he's going to win.
They're doing that so you are passive and they're going to challenge it regardless.
We've got to have the discussion about what we're going to do about that.
dan friesen
Alex himself talks about how Trump in secret internal polls is up by 50 points or whatever.
jordan holmes
Well, yeah, obviously, but anybody who says that to you is a deceiver.
dan friesen
They're working for the enemy.
jordan holmes
They're working for the enemy.
dan friesen
What are you talking about?
jordan holmes
I don't know, but he's clearly working for the enemy by his own words.
dan friesen
He's just mad at Q, because all the Q preoccupation with, like, focus on the plan, everything is according to plan, all that.
Which is really funny, because he just hired Deanna Lorraine, who is a person who's promoted Q a bunch in the past.
That's really, oh well, what are you going to do?
Hard to find anybody, like, popular on the right-wing grift scene right now that hasn't done some Q shit.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
It's got to be tough from a human resources perspective.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it's the biggest game in town now, right?
dan friesen
Yeah, well, it certainly has.
jordan holmes
Q's really taken over.
dan friesen
Yeah, and I think that it was safer to get on that hustle for a while.
I mean, like, Alex was trying to, Jerome Corsi was getting in the mix.
I think before it really got as ugly as it is now, and as comical as it is now, I think that people had a lot more wiggle room to sort of play around in the Q sandbox.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
And I think a lot of them are doing a lot of pretending that they didn't.
jordan holmes
Wow, the Wayfair thing is a real trouble.
dan friesen
Well, certainly one of the most...
Convincing things Alex has ever looked into, and then definitely stop talking about it.
jordan holmes
He never remembers again.
dan friesen
Nope.
So, this is where things start to go into a real tailspin for the episode.
alex jones
I'm just going to tell you about what InfoWars is going through behind the scenes.
And I try to just leave that out, because it really makes the enemy happy to tune in, and you'll hear about what they're doing, what they're up to.
But, I mean, at this point, you need to know, because it's Alamo-level stuff, okay?
And I've sent my letters out, I've asked for reinforcements, and I'm asking those reinforcements from you.
And you have to understand that this is a very serious situation.
dan friesen
It's very serious.
He's going to get into it.
So he does get into it quite a bit.
Of course he does.
Quite extensively.
jordan holmes
How's he doing?
dan friesen
He's not good.
But before he gets into what I would describe as a very long, consistent diatribe about his troubles, he also has some news items to hit.
alex jones
And here's the first one.
dan friesen
Sounds like a true story to you?
jordan holmes
But Trump is in control of FEMA!
dan friesen
Should be.
jordan holmes
I mean, Obama was in control of FEMA, that's why they had the FEMA camp set up, so now FEMA's a rogue agency?
dan friesen
Well, no, that was actually Clinton.
jordan holmes
Oh, that's right, that was Clinton.
Apologies.
dan friesen
But Obama did take over that mechanism.
jordan holmes
Sure, sure.
But FEMA's gone rogue.
That's what we're hearing.
dan friesen
Yeah, the globalists have full control of FEMA or something.
jordan holmes
Sure, why not?
dan friesen
So the actual story here is that there's a surge of cases happening in Ohio right now.
jordan holmes
Wow, that's...
dan friesen
And the state is setting up places where people who've been exposed to COVID-19 but may not need hospitalization, they can go there to self-quarantine if they're unable to do so at their own homes.
There's nothing about this that involves force or squads of Obama Corps members running around.
Oh, you got snivels.
You're going to a FEMA camp.
Ridiculous.
To give you some sense of how weak this reporting is, we just heard how Alex is covering this news.
Now, here is a selection from Paul Joseph Watson's article on Infowars that's the basis for Alex's coverage.
jordan holmes
Let's hear it.
dan friesen
Quote.
It is not known whether people suspected to have been exposed to COVID who can't or refuse to be isolated at home will be forced to be housed in these facilities, although numerous respondents to the directive expressed this concern on Twitter.
jordan holmes
That's good stuff.
dan friesen
Wow.
jordan holmes
That's good stuff.
That's a long way to make up some bullshit.
dan friesen
Oh, yeah.
unidentified
Somebody tweeted that maybe it'll be bad.
dan friesen
That's right.
jordan holmes
That's what this boils down to.
dan friesen
There's something where, like, I mean, there's people who are experiencing homelessness or people who live in multi-generational homes who might have gotten exposed to somebody through work or something.
jordan holmes
You can't just move to a hotel.
You can't just stay in your own room.
dan friesen
You might not be able to afford that.
It might be impossible.
unidentified
Totally.
dan friesen
And so the state being able to set up places where people can safely self-quarantine for a certain amount of time makes total sense and I think is a great service.
For folks to be able to apprise themselves of.
And Alex has taken that.
And he's reporting that Obama goons are going to send you to FEMA camps if you have snivels.
And if you look at the underlying reporting on InfoWars, it goes back to some people said weird shit on Twitter.
These guys are dicks.
jordan holmes
So it is bad for unmarked vans to just kidnap people, though.
dan friesen
Alex is for it.
Because they're enemy combatants.
jordan holmes
Right.
But now, if they do it because you have the sniffles, then it's bad.
dan friesen
Yeah, because it's Obama court.
jordan holmes
Gotcha.
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
jordan holmes
All right.
unidentified
Yep.
jordan holmes
Oh, boy, we're in trouble.
dan friesen
Yeah, oh, big trouble.
jordan holmes
Yeah, we're in big trouble.
dan friesen
Yep.
More trouble, too.
jordan holmes
I heard some tweets saying that we're in trouble.
dan friesen
Oh, yeah.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I'm going to base everything on that.
dan friesen
Yeah, and you might have heard some tweets about this next narrative as well.
jordan holmes
All right.
alex jones
We have a guest on from Australia about they didn't just go arrest one lady.
Oh, they were busy beavers going to the houses of 80-plus people that dared to speak out against the unending COVID lockdown or to point out...
The CDC's own numbers that 90 plus percent of the tests are false positive.
That's now all over the news.
They tried to suppress it since last weekend, but that failed.
dan friesen
Alex isn't even understanding the new COVID denialism meme as he's reporting the big news as being that the government had to admit that 90 percent of cases were false positives.
That's wild.
In reality, what Alex is misrepresenting is that the CDC announced that only 6% of people in their statistics who died from COVID-19 had no other contributing factors.
Taking that number and not attempting to better understand what it shows is basically what people like Alex do.
But it's surprising that his comprehension skills have eroded so severely that he's reporting this to his audience as proof that over 90% of the tests are false positives.
The fact that 6% of the deaths were from COVID-19 alone, that's not really surprising.
Part of the reason for this is that there were a number of these deaths that were due to conditions that were precipitated by COVID-19, which would be listed as a death from COVID-19 and pneumonia, for example.
Right.
unidentified
There are other cases where COVID-19 exacerbated existing conditions and made chronic but manageable conditions fatal.
dan friesen
In those cases, you'd have multiple causes of death, but a very strong argument that the presence of COVID-19 brought on the death.
Right, right, right, right.
Is that a lot of the things that would be considered comorbidities are super common.
Conditions like hypertension or diabetes would be comorbidities that are listed as causes of death, but those people in all likelihood would not have died when they did if they had not caught COVID-19.
If you just write off all those deaths, then you could hand-wave away the deaths of approximately 45% of the adult population of the United States.
Which is the number cited by the CDC as people who have hypertension.
Sure.
The issue is really well understood here, you know, exactly this phenomenon, as it relates to other conditions, like cancer.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
It's just being intentionally misrepresented by people like Alex because it's their current con, making money off putting people's lives at risk.
The scarier part to me is how Alex doesn't even seem to grasp the talking point.
It kind of just feels like he's winging it.
jordan holmes
Yeah, he doesn't even read memes anymore because they're too lengthy.
dan friesen
I think you saw the 6% and was like, alright, I've been yelling about false positives in other settings.
There have been some other headlines about NFL players who tested positive and there was a false positive.
Let's do it.
94% fake.
jordan holmes
Why not?
What, is somebody going to hold me accountable for this lie?
dan friesen
Probably not.
Unless it's sort of...
I mean, this couldn't possibly be connected, but apparently...
Alex is having some consequences in his life.
And here is where this begins.
alex jones
We have seven major suppliers and a couple of smaller suppliers of high-quality, organic, and wild-harvested, top-of-the-line supplements that we get that are private-labeled or are proprietary designs we came up with in many cases, like TurboForce or BrainForce or X2.
You know, three, four months ago, a lot of them were late.
They couldn't get certain stuff.
We had to wait, but we thought, oh, maybe it's going to come back.
Of the seven, now five are two, three, four, five, six months behind, and now they're just saying, hey, we're going to have to give you back the money you put as a down payment on that, where we just can't open, nothing's coming in, it's not being produced in the raw areas.
If one person gets COVID, nobody dies, but the whole plant has to shut down, and it's happening to food distribution centers, it's happening to warehouses.
It's why you can't get a lot of furniture you want to order or just all sorts of things you want aren't there anymore.
dan friesen
I just got a couch.
Yeah, I don't know.
jordan holmes
You got it from Wayfair, though.
unidentified
That's true.
jordan holmes
So don't be lying to the people.
dan friesen
Which Alex is very suspicious about.
jordan holmes
Look, we all saw what arrived in that box and nobody was happy about it.
dan friesen
A couch with one piece broken.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you know which piece.
dan friesen
Yeah, the back.
jordan holmes
The leg.
dan friesen
Got a replacement.
Took forever.
But thank you, Wayfair.
Yes.
Yeah, I don't know.
So Alex is depicting a situation now where his supply chain has broken down and he can't get the products in anymore.
So he's basically presenting a face of like, I'm screwed.
jordan holmes
I'm kind of fucked here.
I don't have anything to sell.
I have the money that I gave to them, and now I have nothing to do with it.
dan friesen
But, I mean, he has played this game a number of times in the past, and I will not get lulled into it again.
I will not.
jordan holmes
He says going out of business the next day.
dan friesen
I am going to resist the siren song of acting like Alex is telling the truth.
He probably, I don't know, I mean, it seems like he needs money.
That's what we can say with some certainty.
And maybe it's that he needs money because he sees that his suppliers aren't resupplying.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
And if that's the case, then he knows, I will have nothing to sell.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
I can have some money to keep going for a while.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
But once that point comes, there will be no money coming in.
jordan holmes
Oh, yeah.
dan friesen
So what do you do?
I mean, hey, granted, good news.
Supply costs went down.
jordan holmes
That's true!
dan friesen
Bad news, revenue is zero.
jordan holmes
Supply disappeared entirely, so there was no cost.
That's great.
The overhead is really low now.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So I probably wouldn't even be bringing this up if it wasn't really consistent on this, especially in the first hour of this show.
Alex seems like he is just like, hellfire will be upon us.
unidentified
Of course.
jordan holmes
Well, he's having a bad day.
dan friesen
Doom is coming.
jordan holmes
He's having a bad day.
alex jones
Horrible times are coming.
Absolute hell on earth.
And maybe if Trump gets elected, we can have a soft landing, but I don't think so.
And I just have to tell you the truth.
I just can't soften stuff for you, and I can't lie to you.
That's why the enemy wants you to think everything's handled, everything's great.
It's not great.
They purposely collapsed all the blue cities and blue states.
It is hell on earth.
There are thousands of suicides a day.
There are tens of thousands a week of drug overdoses.
The media has pedophilia all over it.
They are breaking our will right now.
I don't believe they're going to win in the end.
God promised that.
But you have to know that people are in for a rude awakening show.
You need to get your storable food at Infowarsstore.com right now.
They have the food.
dan friesen
A little telling.
jordan holmes
Oh, boy.
Oh, boy.
dan friesen
Gave it away a little bit there at the end.
jordan holmes
The world's going to end.
Everybody's going to die.
Blue states are on fire.
And guess what?
I have food, which you are going to need when the rapture happens.
dan friesen
Yeah.
I think some of his numbers are a little bit off.
I mean, some of those things, like...
Are obviously real problems, like people who are dying of suicide.
That's a real issue, but I think his numbers are a little high.
jordan holmes
Yeah, also he doesn't care.
dan friesen
No, he certainly doesn't.
jordan holmes
That doesn't count.
It doesn't count.
It's like a walk.
It's a BB.
It's nothing in the box.
dan friesen
He's painting the worst possible picture in order to then transition over to his ad sale.
But he keeps on talking about how he can't get his products.
alex jones
You notice if our catalog is 60 plus items, Nine or ten are already gone.
And a lot of them were big sellers.
You can't get it.
You can't get it.
Especially complex formulas or something like APEC PowerStack that became very popular.
Just got 13 pills.
13 different things.
Four or five of them we can't get.
So that product, what we've got is what we've got.
This is bad, folks.
dan friesen
I find this pretty remarkable.
Because if you take a little bit of a step back and look at what's being claimed here, this just makes no sense.
If you take Alex at his word that the supply chain is broken down and that he can't get his products to sell you anymore, that indicates one thing to me, and that is that Alex is not prepared for a situation like the one we're in.
That's okay in and of itself.
Most of us weren't and aren't.
The only thing that makes this really funny is when you realize that so much of Alex's brand revolves around survivalism.
jordan holmes
Preparing for this exact scenario.
dan friesen
Yeah.
He sells bug out bags and seed vaults.
We made a documentary with Joel Skousen about where to run to when the shit hits the fan.
His entire industry of survival food and water filtration is based on the idea that you need these things to survive in the future when everything collapses.
For years, he sold gold on the expectation that you would need it after the imminent collapse of the dollar when paper money would have no value.
It's just hilarious to see that Alex himself, as a businessman, seems to have done nothing.
To prepare this business to run into difficulties like supply chain disruptions, which seem like one of the most obvious things that could happen.
Seems like a real survivalist might have expected this possibility and had a plan.
jordan holmes
Well, it turns out the supplier took my advice, bugged out, so it turns out I should have had a bug out.
dan friesen
My supplier read Joel Skousen's book and got freaked out.
jordan holmes
Should have taken my own advice, but unfortunately, I'm fucked.
dan friesen
My supplier insisted on going to Idaho and...
I'm out.
So, even though he can't get his products, don't think that Alex feels sorry for himself.
unidentified
I think he does.
dan friesen
Or for InfoWars.
jordan holmes
Always.
alex jones
Do I feel sorry for InfoWars that we've been persecuted and attacked and lied about and how they've battled to shut us down?
No, I feel sorry for the children of this country and the world being subjected to the brainwashing and poison vaccines and fluoride and pedophilia and devil worship.
dan friesen
All right.
jordan holmes
It does not get more obvious bullshit.
If somebody does that, you're just like, fuck you.
I'm more worried about the children.
dan friesen
Fuck off.
jordan holmes
No, you're not.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
The children.
dan friesen
Well, I mean, you know.
jordan holmes
Oh, won't somebody please think of the children?
dan friesen
I'm desperately worried about the children, and I also am spending almost my entire show yelling about how...
I can't get my products anymore and you need to buy stuff.
jordan holmes
Don't feel sorry for me.
Feel sorry for the children.
I'm just talking about me because I don't care about the children.
dan friesen
Right.
But I don't need to.
unidentified
You do.
dan friesen
You caring about these abstract and falsified concerns that I have about the children helps me.
So we get another appearance of...
I feel like we need a sound effect for this.
One of our favorite fake Jefferson quotes.
alex jones
And when the CDC came out and said 90 plus percent of the tests are fake, false positives, and 90 plus percent, 94 percent had comorbidity, they censored all that.
Thomas Jefferson was famously asked, what is the limit to which tyrants will take us?
And he said, the limit you will accept.
And that's absolutely true.
And so we're going into slavery.
dan friesen
Now, that's not a Jefferson quote.
That's Frederick Douglass.
But it's interesting that Alex is using it, misattributing it, and then saying we're going into slavery when Frederick Douglass was talking about the institution of slavery.
jordan holmes
He was specific.
I am whitewashing the thing that he said in order to accept the punishment of the thing that the actual guy...
dan friesen
Very weird.
jordan holmes
Yeah, man, it's...
That's really white.
dan friesen
Yes.
jordan holmes
That's really white.
dan friesen
It's quite white.
jordan holmes
I can't even acknowledge Frederick Douglass' existence.
dan friesen
So Alex, at this point, comes back from break, and he's got a meme up on the board.
Sure.
And this meme plays a bigger role in this segment than I expected.
You've seen a hundred of these memes.
They're basically a picture of a dam.
And then the water behind it is labeled something, and then the town below is labeled.
Something is holding back something.
jordan holmes
Of course.
dan friesen
This is the dam is Infowars, the water on top is communism, and then you are down below.
jordan holmes
Of course.
dan friesen
And so Alex introduces this.
alex jones
Look at this graphic I've got right over here.
I'm going to walk over here.
Communism is behind the Hoover Dam.
Hundreds of billions of gallons of water.
It can be life-giving to crops and humans and more.
Unless it's unleashed in an improper way, it'll destroy the lives of tens of thousands of people.
It'll kill thousands of people.
It's a weapon.
And communism is held back by Infowars and by your resistance and by your prayer and by Trump.
But here it is.
Communism's up here behind the dam.
You've got Infowars holding it back, and you're down here.
dan friesen
So one thing that's really interesting about this is, I mean, there's all kinds of different...
...types of dams that are used, but they don't just hold back water.
jordan holmes
No, they just hold it back.
dan friesen
They flow water.
jordan holmes
Uh-uh, they hold it back.
dan friesen
Some of them create energy out of hydroelectric...
jordan holmes
Like Titan, they hold it back.
dan friesen
Some are able to create energy out of this communism that is being held back by the dam.
jordan holmes
Naturally.
dan friesen
And almost all of them have, like, roots that the water goes down.
But also, if he's saying that this water is great and life-giving, but if there's, you know, too much of it, then it destroys the town below, then that suggests that some communism is good.
Right.
Okay.
Let's go with that thought, Alex.
jordan holmes
Perhaps if you're going to explain it that way, you could just literally put anything over the water and describe it as, if there's too much of it, it will kill the townspeople below.
dan friesen
Bees.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Anything.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
It's a stupid meme.
And he explained it.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
There's a hundred billion gallons of water.
I understand the meme.
There's a lot of water, and if you don't have a dam, it falls on these people.
It's not hard!
dan friesen
Yeah, and he thinks it's incredibly profound.
unidentified
Yeah!
dan friesen
He's having...
unidentified
It's not!
dan friesen
It's like it blew his mind.
unidentified
It's stupid.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So, the dam.
Infowars.
Trump.
Holding back communism.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
They're coming for you.
jordan holmes
Okay.
alex jones
And just like Donald Trump told you.
They're not after him.
They're coming for you.
And this is real.
So I'm going to tell you again, because the straights are dire for everybody, but they really want InfoWars off the air.
If you want to get the supplements, or the books, or the t-shirts, or the films, or the high-quality, storeable food, it's all in stock now, but a lot of the supplements won't be there in the future.
The food is there for now, one to two weeks delivery.
You need to get your orders in, not just for you.
I don't know how long we'll be able to continue operating this system and self-funding.
They've taken our sponsors.
They've taken everything away.
dan friesen
So, again, we're in a position where Alex is spending almost his entire show on this theme.
Wow.
And what's interesting is, you know, like, we've heard this before, and obviously I don't believe the problem's as severe.
As maybe he's making it out to sound.
But boy, he's doing a real lot to make you think that this is as bad as it's ever been.
alex jones
On a scale of 1 to 10, our worst threats before were a 2. This is a 9. They've got people out on the street, ladies and gentlemen, with contracts out to kill me.
Okay?
dan friesen
There are assassins.
jordan holmes
There are assassins just wandering around with contracts on Alex Jones.
dan friesen
Open contracts on Alex's life.
jordan holmes
I don't think it would be that hard.
If I'm a professional assassin, I feel like I could knock that out in a day at most.
dan friesen
I mean...
jordan holmes
You know where he's gonna be.
dan friesen
We've seen...
I know that he has security with him and stuff, you know, so like just going up to him isn't a good idea.
But the way that he behaves, and we've seen him behave in the past...
Is such that does not seem very careful.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
Such as going and yelling at everybody at a park.
Holding weekly swim sessions.
jordan holmes
Oh man, here's my pitch for you, alright?
If I'm an assassin with a great sense of humor, I'm gonna use Novichok.
That's what I'm gonna do.
So Alex dies of that poisoning and they're like, wait, why'd Putin kill Alex?
What did he do?
dan friesen
What did Alex do this time?
Yeah, I mean, he'll just show up drunk at restaurants and yell at people at a chicken place.
I mean, he puts himself in a lot of situations where it doesn't seem safe.
jordan holmes
If he had a heart attack, no coroner is looking too far into it.
dan friesen
Probably not.
jordan holmes
But inject him a little between the toes and then call it a day.
dan friesen
The only reason any of this even...
Borders on, like, acceptable conversations is because I think it's so ludicrous to imagine that the globalists have put out assassination teams trying to find Alex.
jordan holmes
Totally.
dan friesen
So dumb.
jordan holmes
I'm only using James Bond-style assassination.
dan friesen
But, I mean, here we have Alex saying that every other time there's been shit that's been bad, it's been a two.
unidentified
Two!
dan friesen
But now it's a nine.
And as much as this is trying me, it's testing my resolve.
I refuse to believe you, Alex.
jordan holmes
I have heard that almost exact same thing before.
I don't trust you.
dan friesen
It'll be real funny when it's a classic boy who cried wolf situation and he goes out of business next week.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
unidentified
Because we've finally gotten to the point where it's like, I'm not going to get excited.
jordan holmes
Fine, fine.
You know what?
I get it.
This time, not doing it, man.
dan friesen
Yeah.
And look, Alex says that there's assassination teams out to get him.
And part of the reason for that is that he is meddling.
In the globalist plans, and he knows that because they keep telling him so.
alex jones
And what they've said directly to us is you continue to be the epicenter of our plans not going the way we want, and you need to stop right now.
And they're very, very serious.
Well, I'm not signing on with a bunch of devil-worshipping child molesters.
This is not going to happen.
So they are moving now to destroy me.
It's okay.
I need to hold on as long as possible.
And so I'm telling you, go to Infowarsstore.com, get your high-quality, affordable food.
dan friesen
It's just a drumbeat, man.
It's just over and over again.
jordan holmes
The globalists.
No matter how many plans they make, they can never pre-plan for Alex.
No.
He's too much of a wild card.
It doesn't matter what you're thinking.
He's already one step ahead of you.
dan friesen
It gets even funnier when you start to realize that these people are also trying to present that this is like the devil's plan.
jordan holmes
Yes, this is the devil's plan.
dan friesen
That started thousands of years ago.
jordan holmes
InfoWars is the only thing keeping the devil at bay.
The devil!
He personally says, God damn it, Alex has foiled me again!
dan friesen
The one thing that Beelzebub did not plan on was a weirdo, drunk, paranoid in Texas.
I mean, that is really fucking funny, the hubris of thinking that, like, I am the only person who's foiling...
The literal devil's centuries-old plans that have been in motion and are coming to fruition now.
unidentified
And if I weren't here, they'd all be going smoothly.
dan friesen
Like, alright, man.
That kind of delusion of grandeur is kind of hilarious because it's Alex, but if you really believe that he believed everything he said, that's scary.
jordan holmes
I like to imagine that Daniel got that prophecy and was just like...
Nah, there's no way.
Like, wait, hold on.
Are you telling me part of God's plan is a weird fat drunk?
As the only bulwark against Satan himself and God's rolling those dice?
dan friesen
Daniel's sitting there writing, he's like, how thick is his neck?
He's drawing a little diagram.
Wait, you're telling me that the key to stopping the devil's plan is a food truck out at Barton Springs?
Are you kidding me?
What does that even mean?
unidentified
What's Texas?
jordan holmes
Last time Job questioned me, he got his ass beat.
What do you want to say, Daniel?
unidentified
And then, in the 20,000th year, Alex Jones.
dan friesen
Ridiculous.
So Alex talks more.
He just won't stop talking about these difficulties.
alex jones
I've got to decide the next week, with what we've got in our coffers, with only enough to operate, if I sold both my houses, which I don't even care about, I've got them mortgaged.
To pay for this place, he would not operate us for a month and a half.
I'm not rich.
I don't have all this money the media says I have, okay?
dan friesen
So he has two houses, and if he sells both of them, then he can operate for about a month and a half.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
So that tells me...
jordan holmes
Let's see.
dan friesen
That all the times that he's talked about, like, I'll sell my house to keep the show going, like, those were kind of...
jordan holmes
Empty.
dan friesen
Well, maybe empty, but also, like, not really all that potent.
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
Okay.
You'd do that to be able to keep going for a month?
jordan holmes
For a month and a half?
That doesn't seem worth it.
dan friesen
Well, I mean, in that month and a half, you better fucking make a difference.
jordan holmes
You better have a fucking one last dance party to save the fucking rec center.
That's what you gotta be doing here.
dan friesen
Yeah, you better be regretting every time you've done these marathons and money bombs.
It's really sort of caused diminishing returns.
Yeah, I...
I mean, who knows?
He's a total liar, and I'm not gonna get...
I'm trying to make progress.
unidentified
I'm not going to get caught up in the excitement.
jordan holmes
Not going to do it.
dan friesen
It's not even excitement.
I'm just not going to get caught up in speculating about like, okay.
jordan holmes
How much time we got left?
dan friesen
It seems like, well, okay, if you're describing like a real terrible situation financially, and then you're like, if I sell both my houses, we could go a month and a half.
In that month and a half, you would not be able to write the ship, so you wouldn't sell those houses.
jordan holmes
No, of course not.
dan friesen
That would be an unwise thing to do.
jordan holmes
It would be very stupid.
dan friesen
Unless you had some belief that in that month and a half, you could write the ship, and if the supply lines are completely busted...
jordan holmes
There's no way to sell any product to write the ship.
dan friesen
So why would you sell your house?
It doesn't make sense.
Even if your whole goal is to destroy the globalist plan, you can do that from home.
Podcast.
Something like that.
jordan holmes
Well, that's fair.
But a podcast can't defeat the devil.
You've got to have at least 80 affiliates.
dan friesen
That's what they said about David and Goliath.
Get a slingshot.
jordan holmes
And a podcast.
Yes.
dan friesen
So Alex is like, you know, come on.
alex jones
But what I'm saying is, is that I don't have the gasoline to go into the future with the things they're pulling and the things they're doing unless I get a big chunk of money in.
So here's what I need you to do.
Please go to Infowars.com to the live show feed today that says emergency broadcast, globalist planning, massive world depression if Trump wins or loses.
And if you scroll down in that, there's a link to Infowarsstore.com and the donate page where you can sign up for recurring donations or you can sign up for one-time donations.
And if folks would simply...
Go there and make a major donation.
There's also a P.O. box on there.
I know people have got money out there.
dan friesen
Alex has done this before on Subscribestar and it didn't really work out.
That didn't make any real traction, any meaningful traction.
That's why you don't hear him talk about it anymore.
Right.
But yeah, this is...
unidentified
Oh man, why isn't he on Patreon?
jordan holmes
Maybe he should advertise on Facebook.
dan friesen
I think he tried to do Patreon.
jordan holmes
He could do some Twitter ads.
dan friesen
When they did that Patreon.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I remember that.
dan friesen
For all the people who aren't allowed places.
jordan holmes
How'd that go?
dan friesen
I don't think it went well.
jordan holmes
Oh, no.
dan friesen
So, Alex has other ways that you need to do this.
alex jones
And I'll ask you to support our local radio stations.
Spread the word about them.
Become a sponsor.
Thank them.
Tithe to the local radio station.
This show, and I'm not saying we're good, does more for pro-life, more against the Satanists, more to bring people to Christ than the little fake country club churches all day that people give all their money to.
Donate to your local radio station.
Send them a hundred bucks a month.
$10 a month, whatever you've got.
Give them your word of mouth.
Go and eat at the restaurant that sponsors them.
dan friesen
You know what normal radio shows do?
jordan holmes
What's that?
dan friesen
Sell ads.
jordan holmes
Wow, that would help.
Yeah, that's a great way to do it.
They should try this advertising thing.
dan friesen
I don't know what the model is here for just like, hey, randomly give money to radio stations so they don't end up broadcasting something else that sells ads better.
jordan holmes
I mean, it's literally like, hey, shotgun fire your money at anything that might be nearby.
dan friesen
And that helps me.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
dan friesen
It's kind of, you know, it's analogous to his earliest parts of his career where he needed a sponsor for his radio show and his dad's dental practice bought an ad.
Like, he's basically saying that you guys need to give money to these stations in lieu of any ads that we could sell because we can't sell any ads.
unidentified
Because we can't sell ads.
dan friesen
Because nobody would want to be associated with InfoWars.
Except for maybe the MyPillow guy.
jordan holmes
I would like you to be a sponsor for nothing in return.
I don't want an ad.
I don't want anything.
Just give me money quietly.
dan friesen
Well, actually, you do get something.
jordan holmes
Oh.
alex jones
I used to say support Infowars.
Rescue Infowars.
Save yourself.
Save the world.
We're in this together.
Because let me tell you something.
Communism's up here.
Infowars is the dam blocking it, which is all of us together supporting.
And you and I are all down here with our families.
My children are right here.
dan friesen
Back to the meme.
unidentified
Wow.
dan friesen
But yeah, save yourself by giving money and potential wars.
jordan holmes
That's such a...
You know, when you make the full switch, because now he's not selling ads.
He doesn't really do much politically, really.
It's almost a full-time televangelist slash infomercial for pills kind of show all the time.
dan friesen
A lot of the time.
jordan holmes
It is always amazing how, like...
Zero shame there is.
For somebody with millions of dollars to be like, you guys gotta save yourselves by getting me a jet.
There's only one way.
dan friesen
We've seen this in televangelists forever.
unidentified
Totally.
dan friesen
You see that sort of behavior.
And I think it's not as extreme with Alex.
I don't think he's trying to buy a jet, but there's something going on.
Who knows what it is, but there's something.
And this episode is...
A lot of it.
It's a lot.
unidentified
Oh, boy.
dan friesen
It's over and over and over again.
Him just doing these, like, extreme I-need-money kind of things.
jordan holmes
So this is a short three-hour money bomb.
dan friesen
Yeah, basically.
jordan holmes
Oh, boy.
dan friesen
And, you know, I think that Save InfoWars, Save the World is not going to go as well as Save the Cheerleader, Save the World.
jordan holmes
That's probably true.
dan friesen
I think people enjoyed season one of Heroes a bit more than whatever season this is of...
jordan holmes
InfoWars car wash.
You just gotta do it.
dan friesen
Yeah, that'd be nice.
jordan holmes
You just gotta do an InfoWars car wash.
dan friesen
Get Owen out there.
He probably does a good job on the tires.
jordan holmes
Yeah, totally.
Put him in some skimpy shorts.
It'll be great.
dan friesen
Look, I didn't want to go there.
I was just gonna say he's good at cleaning hubcaps.
jordan holmes
Hey, what can you say?
dan friesen
So, hell's coming.
alex jones
So we're trying to hold the dam against the Satanists and the armies of hell, and we pray to Jesus Christ and our Heavenly Father for to lead God and direct us against this enemy!
But I need money to fight a war!
And I need word of mouth!
And I need prayer!
And I need action!
Because that dam's gonna come down!
That dam's already got holes in it!
And the enemy's telling you, don't stick your fingers in it!
Don't block it!
Everything's fine!
Peaches and cream are on the other side!
jordan holmes
No!
alex jones
You know it's not peaches and cream!
Trump's told you!
Hell's coming!
dan friesen
Hell's coming!
unidentified
You understand, though, that at that size...
jordan holmes
Doesn't really matter if it's peaches and cream or not.
It's still gonna kill everyone.
dan friesen
That might be worse.
jordan holmes
It's molasses!
Molasses has exploded and killed hundreds of people at a time.
dan friesen
Yeah, I think peaches and cream, I mean, I don't know if it would flow the same as water.
jordan holmes
That's fair.
dan friesen
And same with molasses.
Like, if it was just molasses behind a wall, and then there's a hole in the wall...
I wouldn't be as worried.
jordan holmes
That's fair.
dan friesen
Because it's slow.
jordan holmes
It is slower.
It is slower.
But that almost makes the anxiety worse.
You never know how long.
It's going to take forever to get there.
dan friesen
Yeah, you're just looking up.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you're just like, oh, this is scary.
dan friesen
We've got to move in a week.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I'm going to be really bummed out by this.
Oh, it's another six feet.
dan friesen
So Alex goes out to break yelling about how hell's coming and the damn meme is like, he loves it.
So he comes back.
And he plays this parody video about Brian Stelter, and it's not funny.
It doesn't matter.
unidentified
Of course not.
dan friesen
But Alex does say something that's a little bit troubling.
alex jones
I can tell you, I've had requests from the White House, and I've had requests from the number one Fox News host, I mean, literal requests, like, repeatedly.
Will you make another Brian Stelter parody?
And so...
You've got it!
dan friesen
I don't know if that's true, but if so, that seems like a problem.
jordan holmes
That's so sad.
dan friesen
Wow.
jordan holmes
That's sad.
dan friesen
I think it might be a legal issue, too.
Like, if the White House is requesting that Alex create propaganda against media networks.
jordan holmes
I would argue that he's maybe blowing the White House.
Like, I wouldn't be surprised if Stephen Miller sent an email who was like, man, that parody video was really funny.
You should make another one.
dan friesen
I mean, look, big picture, I don't believe it at all.
unidentified
Period.
dan friesen
But if what he's saying is true, I don't know.
That sounds like it's not legal.
jordan holmes
Yeah, but I mean, it's not really effective political advertising either.
dan friesen
Nope.
jordan holmes
Make me a shitty parody video.
unidentified
It'll go viral on the things that you're not allowed on.
dan friesen
So Alex gets mad because he wants to cover the story about all the false positives.
And the staff can't quite find the headline, maybe, because...
jordan holmes
It doesn't exist?
alex jones
We ran a live show headline.
This show, not the New York Times.
This one.
Alex Jones.
Austin, Texas, man.
Me.
It's not about the credit, it's about reality.
We ran a headline last week for the live show.
CDC admits...
90% of COVID tests false positive.
Have every available person search that.
I'll get it during the break.
So, it's hard to search it, though, unless you use DuckDuckGo.
They're a pretty good search engine where all our stuff's blocked, but I'll go to rebroadcast.
It's not the cruise bed.
I have to have this article now.
I have to have it or I can't do the show.
Now I need some time to get it.
Anyways, everyone's running in.
And here it is.
I mean, here it is.
New York Times on COVID-19 tests.
Up to 90% of people's testing positive carried barely any virus.
Many are not likely to be contagious.
And that's even a fraud.
dan friesen
Okay, I guess.
unidentified
Whatever.
dan friesen
It's a different thing that that story was about.
But also, when Alex is saying we have a live feed headline, what he's talking about is those articles they post that just have that day's show.
jordan holmes
That's what I thought.
dan friesen
Yeah, so there isn't an article about this that demonstrates anything.
If Alex had found it, all he would have is a video of that day's episode with a headline that says whatever he wants it to say.
So, I don't know.
I didn't even try to find this, because if it's a live video headline, it means nothing.
jordan holmes
Just have somebody type it on screen.
It's just as valid.
You made it up!
dan friesen
Put a fake date on it.
Whatever.
jordan holmes
Who cares?
dan friesen
So there's been some talk about the possibility that a vaccine might be ready fairly soon.
I'm not sure exactly.
I'm not sure all the details about that.
unidentified
I don't know how...
dan friesen
If that's too rushed or what, who knows?
jordan holmes
Who knows?
dan friesen
I don't know.
I don't have a strong opinion on it.
But Alex believes that since it's coming soon, theoretically, that that means that that's proof that they've had the vaccine all along.
jordan holmes
Sure.
alex jones
Oh, but they've got their vaccine suddenly ready in a month, they say.
Remember I told you they'd have it by the fall when they said, oh, two years at least.
That was to make the artificial...
Scarcity, like, it's that magic thing.
Oh, sorry, we don't have it for you.
And I said, that's a ploy.
They've already developed it.
They already have the vaccines.
I showed you all the patents five years ago, two years ago, a year ago.
Bill and Melinda Gates front groups.
And we're right again.
We're right again.
dan friesen
They're right again.
jordan holmes
What are they?
dan friesen
They're right again.
jordan holmes
I have no idea what he was saying.
unidentified
I don't know.
dan friesen
He hasn't proved anything.
It's all just nonsense.
So one of the things that you need to understand, if you're a listener or if you're, I don't know, someone like...
You?
A doubter?
unidentified
Me?
dan friesen
A hater?
jordan holmes
I'm not a hater.
I am a rager?
dan friesen
I strongly disagree.
I think you're a hater.
What you need to understand is that Alex Jones is unlike anybody else.
What he does is individual research.
He creates...
jordan holmes
He can't even find his own headline.
dan friesen
He creates a research product that's based on his own in-depth...
Analysis.
jordan holmes
He can't navigate his own website.
How can I trust him?
dan friesen
No one else does this.
jordan holmes
Where would he go?
dan friesen
Hater.
alex jones
You need our word of mouth.
We need yours.
This transmission is game-changing because we're original research.
I don't go out and get some other talking heads thing and then, oh, that sounds smart.
I'm going to say that.
I go out and I really know what I'm doing.
I really talk to the experts and do the research and I tell you what's going on and it's about as accurate as it gets.
The enemy hates it.
Because their best brains are like cooking this stuff up and they know I can see right into it.
That's why they want us off the air.
Folks, you need storable food.
We've got high quality at a very low price.
dan friesen
It just keeps going.
jordan holmes
I mean, the more you think about it, we don't laugh about the devil too much because that's stupid.
You know, we just ignore it.
But the more you realize what the devil being in play really means, like...
The enemy's got their best brains working on it.
Their best brain is the devil.
He's a million years old or whatever.
dan friesen
And incomprehensible to humans.
unidentified
Exactly!
He's a literal angel.
dan friesen
Alex is smarter.
jordan holmes
Alex is smarter than the devil.
unidentified
Yup.
jordan holmes
Alright.
dan friesen
Hubris.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Also, I love the idea that he's coming out here swinging with all this original research.
It's like, for years, all he would do is read headlines on drugs.
jordan holmes
I know!
dan friesen
And now it's just reposting articles from WorldNetDaily and, like, Gateway Pundit.
jordan holmes
Get the fuck out of here.
I don't just go listen to some talking heads and be like, oh, that sounds smart, and say that.
I listen to my idiot talking heads and I'm like, yeah, why not?
I'll make up something based on that.
dan friesen
So Alex gets into talking about what's going to happen after Trump wins.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
And it's pretty dark.
Turns out you and I are going to a camp.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's totally true.
alex jones
We can't have an armistice here in this political war.
We have to then root out the Democrats because they're a globalist force that don't believe the country should even exist.
They want...
To destroy us.
They want to dominate us.
We don't want to destroy them.
We don't want to dominate them.
They're doing it to us.
They started it.
So, we have to have the outlaw of the Democratic Party and the eradication of it politically, and we have a new second party.
I'm serious, folks.
That's what we've come down to.
We'll be right back.
dan friesen
So, he used to talk about that.
I mean, we've heard him talk about that a bit.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
It's been a little while.
It seems to still be in his head.
It seems pretty consistent, but now it's like rooting out and rounding up all the Democrats.
jordan holmes
Sure, sure.
dan friesen
Like, this is...
Fucked up.
This kind of conversation just being had casually is unacceptable.
unidentified
No, no, no.
jordan holmes
It's fine.
It's fine.
We're going to need some sort of secret police to, I guess, research.
They wouldn't even bother researching your behavior.
dan friesen
I doubt it.
jordan holmes
They'd just start grabbing people.
You were on a message board.
Get the fuck out of here.
dan friesen
Just ask you, like, do you know the cool Trump password?
Nope.
jordan holmes
Hey, you know why it's super funny to talk about camps now in the present that we're dealing with?
Is that it's because...
It's so ridiculous because America's never taken a shit ton of people and just put them in camps before, you know?
You've never seen that kind of behavior from America.
And now with the climate that we're in, it's great.
dan friesen
And because Alex's entire early career was predicated on the idea of his political opponents rounding him and his guys up.
jordan holmes
The worst people would round people up.
There's nobody worse than somebody who would round up their political enemies.
dan friesen
Yeah, the idea that that has gone full circle.
So, I think that there's a lot of, like, really not good role models in the world of professional wrestling.
jordan holmes
That sounds right.
dan friesen
There's a lot of dicks, a lot of monsters.
There's one who's probably the biggest, maybe not even the biggest, but he's the most famous, and also a complete asshole.
Freddie Prinze Jr.?
No.
jordan holmes
Oh.
dan friesen
And what a shock.
Alex likes him.
alex jones
I'm not into celebrities.
But I gotta say, I was a little kid watching WrestleMania when he did the whole incredible ballet with Andre the Giant, who weighed like 500 pounds.
Hulk Hogan.
Hulk Hogan called into the show like eight years ago.
People said, that's Hulk Hogan.
They called up a Florida affiliate.
And later, I know somebody that knows Hulk, and he said, you ever call Alex Jones?
Oh, yeah, I love Alex.
Brother, he's a good guy.
Don't like him.
And I never tried to reach out to get Hulk Hogan on, but we should do that.
dan friesen
What a shock.
Alex likes Hulk Hogan.
jordan holmes
Oh, man.
It's just...
alex jones
Hey, brother.
dan friesen
Hey, brother.
Let me tell you about the Cobblest, brother.
jordan holmes
The problem is, if you just start naming names, and we're like, what do you think Alex would do?
If you'd said Hulk Hogan, I'd be like, yeah, Alex is a huge fan of Hulk Hogan.
dan friesen
Take anybody in any particular line of work and find the most racist among them.
jordan holmes
The worst people.
dan friesen
Alex would be like, oh, that guy's great.
jordan holmes
It's a self-selected racist group of friends he has.
dan friesen
Alex is just into him because he recently came out and said that a neighbor got a ballot in his dog's name or something like that.
Great.
jordan holmes
I gotcha.
He was...
He recently...
Well, it wasn't recently, but he's recently...
Well, I imagine it was recently, too.
Throwing the N-word around quite a bit.
dan friesen
Oh, yeah.
Also, Alex shouldn't be into him because he was the leader of the New World Order.
jordan holmes
I don't understand why that would be a problem.
He was the third man.
It was a ballet, Dan.
dan friesen
I mean, that was years earlier, but in the late 90s, he was the leader of the New World Order.
jordan holmes
Yeah, of course he was.
But that's what he was doing.
He was secretly revealing the globalist plan.
It was brilliant on his part.
dan friesen
The globalist plan was to allow way too many people into their group.
jordan holmes
Sure.
I think we've seen that as a truth.
dan friesen
End up ruining an entire company.
unidentified
Yeah, that sounds about right.
dan friesen
Yep.
New world order.
So Alex earlier said that he had a guest on from Australia, and that turns out to be Syrian Girl, who we've talked about a bit in the past.
Somebody who takes the position of like, hey, I don't like Assad, but also I'll spend all my time talking about how the enemies of Assad are doing false flags on themselves and all this shit.
She gets really mad when people call her an Assad apologist.
Although I'm not sure if there's much air between her and this autopologist.
Anyway, I don't care that she wants to come on and talk about how shitty Antifa is.
Not so interested.
But she does say a couple interesting things.
Like, this was interesting.
syrian girl
Yeah, and as we saw at the beginning of the entire Black Lives Matter protests, you had some old men getting shoved and having their head cracked open.
unidentified
I'm not going to...
Stand here and say that things like that are okay.
syrian girl
But we have to remember that Eric Garner was choked to death under Obama.
You know, the kid that was shot with a toy gun, he was 12 years old, I forget his name, he was shot under Obama.
So to claim that this thing, this issue, is a new thing that is happening under Trump is a complete and utter lie that Democrats...
unidentified
Are trying to sell!
dan friesen
No one's trying to sell that.
jordan holmes
No.
No one's trying to sell that.
dan friesen
Nope.
jordan holmes
We're actively trying to keep you from selling it.
dan friesen
You're using that as a way to misframe things.
Yeah.
But also, hey, I don't know, Rodney King got beat under George H.W. Bush.
unidentified
Right.
jordan holmes
What are we doing?
dan friesen
What are we going to play?
What kind of game?
Also, I have bad news for Syrian girl about that old man who got pushed over and had his head cracked open.
Alex has decided and reported that he was an Antifa spy.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
And so he deserved to be pushed over by the police.
So apparently him and Syrian girl don't see eye to eye on that exactly.
jordan holmes
I think they do, Dan.
I think they do.
dan friesen
So, I think that...
I do appreciate, because it's a rare voice on Alex's show, of at least some kind of lip service towards what the protests are about.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
You very rarely see that.
And at least Syrian girl is coming in with a little bit of that.
I think it's a little hollow, and I think it might be in service of the wrong argument.
jordan holmes
100%.
dan friesen
But superficially, it has at least some appearances of...
Something close to rationality.
And dealing with things that are happening as they are, as opposed to what you want them to be.
jordan holmes
Right.
But, I mean, you can't allow that.
Because if you actually talk about the problem, it seems really reasonable to protest.
So, I'm surprised that she even brought it up, honestly.
dan friesen
Well, she would say that protesting is good, but breaking a window or something is bad.
jordan holmes
See, get the fuck out of here.
I'm done with you.
dan friesen
So, Alex is trying to also, in this interview, rationalize the idea of police shooting people.
And that doesn't seem like something he would have done, let's say, 2009, 10, 11. But it's just the thing where they have this training to shoot instinctually.
jordan holmes
Well, that's also bad!
dan friesen
That's just what you gotta do.
jordan holmes
No!
alex jones
The instinct of shooting saves cops' lives.
It gets innocent people killed.
But then, when you go to the job every day and people are shooting at you, what do you expect?
The world isn't perfect, is my point.
unidentified
Yeah, absolutely.
dan friesen
That's not a good point.
jordan holmes
Man, at no point in time does anybody just like, well, let's think of a solution.
Maybe we should also find a way to keep cops from getting shot at as much.
Like, when your problem is cops are getting shot at...
The answer, like, we have zero creativity as a society.
Zero creativity to be like, maybe there's a different way other than let's have cops shoot people.
dan friesen
Well, and it's also incredibly silly to sit here and hear Alex Jones say, like, yeah, civilians getting killed by police is totally fine.
It has to happen because the world's not perfect and cops' lives need to be saved.
That would never be his position, Friar.
So...
I mean, it's been...
jordan holmes
Also, that's just a shitty position.
dan friesen
It's bad.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
But this next clip, it's been a little while in the episode since we've heard something like this.
alex jones
Only you'll keep me in the game.
And that means you gotta go now, because I don't know how long we'll be able to take orders, folks.
I'm just gonna leave it at that.
Infowarsstore.com.
Get your orders in now.
Plus, you need storable food.
dan friesen
Over and over and over again throughout the episode, just hammering it home.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it is...
It's what?
September 3rd?
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
jordan holmes
I guess they finally paid their top-of-the-month bills.
dan friesen
I don't know.
unidentified
I don't...
dan friesen
I don't know what it is, and I can't pretend to understand exactly what it is, but the whole game that I was going to try and play at the beginning of this episode is be in denial of like, ah, he's just making everything up, but you can't really.
If you look at this and how extended and constant it is on this episode, there's something.
jordan holmes
Something is real.
dan friesen
Something requires money.
He said he needs a lot of money, probably in a lump sum, maybe a lawyer's fee or something.
jordan holmes
Something along those lines.
dan friesen
Whatever it is, it's something.
Who knows?
I can't pretend that he's not manifesting this.
I don't believe he would act like this if he was just like, I kind of want to get a second car.
I'm going to fuck with people in this kind of way in order just to get a little bit of fun money.
There's something he needs money for.
jordan holmes
It didn't occur to me that that was a possibility because it's so psychopathic.
But now that I know it's a possibility, he might want another car.
dan friesen
It seems unlikely.
jordan holmes
It seems unlikely, but he's a fucking lunatic.
dan friesen
So, Syrian girl is gone now, and Alex has a guest who's now an employee and seems to be coming on all the time.
That's Deanna Lorraine.
alex jones
You've signed up.
You're working with us the next six months.
deanna lorraine
I know.
I'm so excited.
I'm so excited.
I'm so excited to be here, guys.
And I'm telling you why, too.
Because you can't go anywhere else and actually speak the truth without getting censored or banned.
dan friesen
I dare you to make Shadowgate.
unidentified
laughter laughter laughter Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
dan friesen
Well, I guess Shadowgate isn't speaking the truth.
But it's speaking the truth in her terms.
jordan holmes
In her world.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Or I dare you to bring up how you believe in QAnon.
Like, I dare you to promote QAnon on InfoWars.
I dare you.
Do those things.
See how fast you'll get banned.
unidentified
No, no, no.
jordan holmes
You can speak the truth.
And I believe in QAnon, so I will continue to speak QAnon things on this show.
I'm sure that I will be allowed to speak the truth.
dan friesen
Probably not.
jordan holmes
100%.
dan friesen
Probably going to find out that your six-month contract ain't a contract and you never worked there to begin with.
jordan holmes
You don't even send an email to Millie or a DM.
You don't even Twitter DM like, hey, what's it like to work for Alex Jones?
dan friesen
Not great.
jordan holmes
Nope, nothing.
dan friesen
So, this last clip here that we have is like, so Deanna is like, hey, you know, I can come in, I can say whatever I want, speak the truth, no one's going to get censored.
It's like, here's the kind of truth you want to say.
deanna lorraine
Right, they were so beautiful before, and then feminism happened.
Now they look like Martians.
They do.
And feminism really is a cancer.
I mean, look at what it does.
It infects all these women, and it has them disown their greatest power, which is their femininity.
alex jones
Damn right.
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
dan friesen
These boring-ass online talking points from the proto-alt-right Gamergate nonsense.
jordan holmes
What are we doing?
Are we past being angry at feminism?
We've got other stuff to do with it.
dan friesen
I feel like the right-wing...
I mean, obviously, there's always, among those people, some...
Anger towards anything.
jordan holmes
Oh, sure!
They don't want anybody who's not a white man to have agency.
No, of course not.
dan friesen
But in terms of when that was really their central big thing they pushed, that was like when Milo Yiannopoulos and Sargon of Akkad were kind of like, who are these new faces?
I feel like she's a little bit late on this anti-feminism kick.
jordan holmes
Way late!
dan friesen
It's a little stale.
It's a little bit...
Doesn't move the needle, probably?
jordan holmes
What is it with these women burning their bras 50 years ago?
unidentified
Right.
jordan holmes
Come on, are we still?
unidentified
Come on.
dan friesen
I mean, it's stupid on top of that, but anyway, good luck.
You're probably going to get fired.
jordan holmes
Oh, totally.
dan friesen
Or just not paid, because Alex is gone.
jordan holmes
He's not a big fan of paying people.
dan friesen
Yeah, it seems.
Really get a good lawyer.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you shouldn't.
unidentified
Work there.
dan friesen
Get a good lawyer.
Maybe Barnes.
jordan holmes
Don't!
Barnes, even...
Well, yeah, even Barnes doesn't work there anymore.
dan friesen
Well, Alex does bring him up from time to time.
Anyway, this is our look at September 3rd.
jordan holmes
He needs money.
That's how I would sum up the show.
dan friesen
What I wanted to do, my goal, was to take a look at what was going on in the present day.
But I also wanted to skip past a couple days and get us up to the present.
Because I was pretty concerned that you go back, it's just going to be a lot of dwelling in a lot of the denial and justification of things surrounding Kenosha.
And we've already talked about that on Monday's episode.
I don't want to wallow in that.
jordan holmes
Yeah, their arguments haven't gotten better.
Their information has only gotten liar-ier.
dan friesen
And so we jump to the present, as present as we can, September 3rd, and it's just a garage of in-your-face food.
jordan holmes
Sell food.
I buy my food!
dan friesen
My supplement suppliers' chains have gone down.
Like, okay.
Alright, see how this plays out.
jordan holmes
I'm telling you, he's got to get a new gold guy.
dan friesen
Well, maybe it's his old gold guy.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it could be.
dan friesen
If you're Ted, you can't do that.
You can't get back in the game.
jordan holmes
No, no, no, no.
That's three days away from a retirement situation if I ever saw it.
dan friesen
Too old for this shit.
jordan holmes
Too old.
dan friesen
Anyway, we will be back.
We didn't have the ability to get some phone calls because of tech issues and stuff, but I apologize about that.
But we will be back on Monday, but until then...
We have a website.
jordan holmes
We do have a website.
It's knowledgefight.com.
dan friesen
Yep, we're also on Twitter.
jordan holmes
We are on Twitter.
It's at knowledge underscore fight and I go to Ben Jordan.
dan friesen
Yep, we're also on Facebook.
jordan holmes
We are on Facebook.
Or you could go to give some money to a charity or bail fund in your area.
dan friesen
Yeah, we'll be back.
But until then, I'm Neo.
I'm Leo.
I'm DZX Clark.
I'm Daryl Rundis.
I'm Alex's Supply Chain.
alex jones
Andy in Kansas.
You're on the air.
Thanks for holding.
dan friesen
Hello, Alex.
unidentified
I'm a first-time caller.
I'm a huge fan.
I love your work.
