| I love you. | ||
| Hey, everybody. | ||
| Welcome back to KnowledgeFight. | ||
| I'm Dan. | ||
| I'm Jordan. | ||
| We're a couple dudes who like to sit around, drink novelty beverages, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones. | ||
| Indeed we are, Dan. | ||
| Jordan. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Dan! | |
| Jordan! | ||
| Quick question for you. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| What's your bright spot today? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Tone changed quick there. | ||
| My bright spot today is I have decided to get into indoor apartment composting. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Of course. | |
| And so I have ordered a bag of worms. | ||
| I'm really just leaning in. | ||
| I'm leaning in. | ||
| You are. | ||
| I told you a few days ago, I think it was. | ||
| I was like, you're just turning into the weird dad where you're like, I'm going to be in the garage for the next eight hours. | ||
| Nobody bother me. | ||
| Turning my space into that metaphorical garage. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| So now the bits of lettuce that I don't use can be eaten by these worms. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Very excited about it. | ||
| I like it. | ||
| That's good stuff. | ||
| Yeah, they've not arrived yet. | ||
| Waste not, want not. | ||
| There was that song that Alex plays, or he used to play whenever he was trying to attack Joe Rogan, when he was calling him a sneaky snake. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| There's that song, Snake Farm, and I just keep singing in my head, Worm Farm. | ||
| I just can't stop doing it. | ||
| Worm farm. | ||
| You are susceptible only to certain songs and purchases. | ||
| If there was an ad company that was specifically targeted towards you, they could find a way to hack you completely. | ||
| Worm farm. | ||
| Snake farm got you to buy worms. | ||
| No, I mean, it's not a one-to-one thing. | ||
| Anyway, what's your bright spot? | ||
| Dan, yesterday my partner and I went out for a very long walk along the lakeside. | ||
| Did you know that we have a lake in Chicago? | ||
| What? | ||
| Yeah, no. | ||
| Every time we travel, we're like, let's go walk along the beach. | ||
| It's amazing. | ||
| Let's go see the connection between the earth and the ocean. | ||
| And we're like, we'd never go see the fucking lake. | ||
| We walked along the beach. | ||
| It's beautiful. | ||
| There's a little bird sanctuary. | ||
| I was wondering why the old neighborhood I lived in was called Lake View. | ||
| Yeah, right? | ||
| You can view the lake. | ||
| You can view it. | ||
| Huh. | ||
| It's not far away. | ||
| Weird. | ||
| We never do... | ||
| We go other places and do all the shit that if we just decided to do in Chicago, we could do. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Like, it's ridiculous. | ||
| But Lake Michigan is pretty gross. | ||
| It is pretty gross. | ||
| It's a dirty lake. | ||
| It's really pretty, though. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And especially where we are, we're right at the edge there where you can see the city skyline while still having the bend in the lake around you. | ||
| So it looks like... | ||
| The city is almost an island, a peninsula there, and it's very gorgeous. | ||
| It is, as long as you don't look too close. | ||
| Don't look too close! | ||
| No. | ||
| It was really windy, that was the trick. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| The waves looked beautiful, you couldn't see inside the water. | ||
| I'm complaining about the dirtiness of the lake, and I'm also gonna have a colony of worms. | ||
| I contain multitudes. | ||
| Yes, you are. | ||
| You are a very complex person. | ||
| So, Jordan, today we've got an interesting episode to break down. | ||
| We're going to be talking about the 18th and 19th of September 2020. | ||
| I'm Dan, this is 2020. | ||
| Oh, goddammit. | ||
| So, of course, on the evening of the 18th, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Supreme Court Justice, passed away. | ||
| Who's that? | ||
| It's caused a lot of... | ||
| Consternation would be the word I would choose. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| I'm having difficulty processing everything, but maybe in a slightly different way than a lot of other folks. | ||
| Or maybe fairly similar to other folks. | ||
| I'm not entirely sure. | ||
| I'm worried about what comes next. | ||
| I'm worried about political actors' behavior. | ||
| I'm worried about the GOP. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And it doesn't feel good. | ||
| No. | ||
| No, it doesn't. | ||
| No, it doesn't. | ||
| It's fun, though, for me, just because now everybody's where I am all the time. | ||
| Everybody's very emotional, furious, confused, unhappy, willing to yell at the drop of a hat. | ||
| You're all in my world now. | ||
| Welcome to the fucking Thunderdome. | ||
| If anything, it really should give people greater appreciation of what you live with. | ||
| How difficult it is to be you. | ||
| Again, this is all about me. | ||
| I don't know if you've noticed this. | ||
| I'm pretty sure this is a simulation. | ||
| Certainly the passing of a Supreme Court justice is about you. | ||
| What else am I going to do? | ||
| I laughed maniacally the moment it happened because... | ||
| Of course that would happen then. | ||
| And then I cried, because why wouldn't you cry? | ||
| And now I'm just vacillating back and forth between the two. | ||
| It's great. | ||
| That doesn't sound great, but it sounds human. | ||
| So what we've got is the 19th was Saturday, and Alex had a special Saturday show, breaking down the news and what have you. | ||
| Bunch of nonsense. | ||
| Real murderer's row of terrible guests. | ||
| But, also, Alex is... | ||
| Who should be on the Supreme Court? | ||
| Melania Trump, Dan! | ||
| Steve Pachanek does not show up. | ||
| He probably was unavailable on short-term notice. | ||
| But, we got Norm Pattis. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No! | |
| Former Alex Jones lawyer, Norm Pattis. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| Former Alex Jones lawyer, Robert Barnes. | ||
| Get the fuck out. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What are we doing? | ||
| Just, it's... | ||
| Well, because he's, you know... | ||
| We need the best legal minds of our generation. | ||
| He always introduces them as constitutional lawyers. | ||
| It's a natural fit for his show, but it is silly. | ||
| So, what we also have is the 18th. | ||
| Now, when Alex did his show during the day on the 18th on Friday... | ||
| There was no news. | ||
| This hadn't happened yet. | ||
| And so, that's irrelevant. | ||
| We're gonna ignore it. | ||
| Yeah, why would we? | ||
| However, Alex has started doing this thing called, like, Election Countdown, or whatever, and it's a nightly show that's hosted by, like, Deanna Lorraine and Harrison Smith and I think Owen Schroyer, and then Alex will drop in sometimes. | ||
| And so, because the major breaking news, Alex had to come in for election countdown, so we've got that. | ||
| We've got Alex's time with Harrison Smith on the night of the 18th, and then Alex's show on the 19th. | ||
| And I would say that there's only one word that can describe this episode. | ||
| This is going to be egg-splosive. | ||
| Egg-splosive! | ||
| All right. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| It's explosive. | ||
| So he's got a show with Deanna Lorraine and Harrison Smith. | ||
| Okay, torture is a war crime, Dan. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| Deanna might be on that episode, but I turned it off once Alex left. | ||
| Good call. | ||
| Because I don't care what Harrison Smith says. | ||
| Absolutely not. | ||
| Look, I make my career listening to this horrible shit, and I have standards. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Torture is a war crime, Dan. | ||
| I guess we should get down to business, but before we do, let's take a little moment to say thank you to some folks who have signed up and are supporting the show. | ||
| That's a great idea. | ||
| So first, Ryan, thank you so much. | ||

unidentified
|
Thank you! | |
| And finally, thank you so much, Ed G. Thank you so much. | ||
| Ooh. | ||
| You're now a policy wonk. | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Thank you very much, Ed! | ||
| Thank you, Eddie. | ||
| 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 that little button that says support the show, we would appreciate it. | ||
| It would be very lovely. | ||
| Or, what you could do is you could find your way next to a large body of water with your... | ||
| You're just not supportive, Dan. | ||
| Not of this. | ||
| You're just the first thing I say and you just go, ugh. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| How about this, Dan? | ||
| How about find a local bail fund or charity in your area and donate some goddamn money to it? | ||
| How does that feel? | ||
| That works. | ||
| How does that feel, Dan? | ||
| I can support that. | ||
| Okay, good. | ||
| I will take your criticism and it's totally fair. | ||
| I am not supportive of how you do that bit. | ||
| You are not supportive at all. | ||
| That bit is trash. | ||
| You started the bit in the... | ||
| And then you just hand it off to me. | ||
| Because I wasn't good at it. | ||
| Anyway. | ||
| You do have standards. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So I have two out of context drops from today's show to supplement the explosiveness. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| The first is Alex discussing... | ||
| Listeners and viewers, you don't need me to tell you that the left loves the Supreme Court. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ooh, the left loves the Supreme Court. | |
| I don't need to tell you that. | ||
| You know that institution that gave us such hits as a stolen election and Citizens United, i.e. | ||
| the rest of the elections being stolen? | ||
| It implies on some level that the right doesn't love this. | ||
| No, apparently they don't. | ||
| But Alex does have some positive things to say about somebody else. | ||
| Hitler was very accomplished. | ||
| Oh boy. | ||
| Total stud. | ||
| Complete badass. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| Very accomplished. | ||
| Very accomplished. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I just think you shouldn't compliment Hitler that much. | ||
| I understand the point that he's trying to make. | ||
| Sure! | ||
| He did do a lot of things. | ||
| He's accomplished. | ||
| He's accomplished. | ||
| That's something an edgy high schooler might say. | ||
| Not a serious political analyst. | ||
| You would hope not. | ||
| It's not really a point that needs to be made. | ||
| No. | ||
| No, no, no, no. | ||
| No one's sitting around and complaining about Hitler. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| Hold on. | ||
| Hold on. | ||
| Everybody, let's stop for a second. | ||
| Look, I know. | ||
| I know. | ||
| But consider how much he achieved in his life, Dan. | ||
| It seems trite, pointless. | ||
| So we start here on the 18th, the evening of the 18th. | ||
| Harrison Smith opens the show with breaking news. | ||
| Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the InfoWars 2020 election countdown coverage. | ||
| My name's Harrison Smith. | ||
| And breaking news, we have for you news that just came out minutes ago. | ||
| Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has died. | ||
| Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has passed away at the age of 87. This is just breaking minutes ago. | ||
| NPR says Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the demure firebrand who in her 80s became a legal, cultural, and feminist icon died Friday. | ||
| The Supreme Court announced her death, saying the cause was complications from metastatic cancer. | ||
| Why are you citing NPR? | ||
| Don't you hate NPR? | ||
| Nah, they're the ones with the great quotes, though. | ||
| Isn't that intrinsically weird? | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| We read NPR, of course, to make sure that we monitor them. | ||
| And when they've got a good headline, they've got a good lead, man. | ||
| There's just nothing you can do. | ||
| You're supposed to believe that they're the enemy of the people. | ||
| Yes, all people. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And their blurb about Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was too good to pass up, Dan. | ||
| It's weird. | ||
| Look, just because you literally work for the Christian devil doesn't mean you can't write a good lead! | ||
| Seems strange. | ||
| So Harrison has some standards that he'd like to express about how this story is going to be covered. | ||
| And folks, if you think back to the last time a Supreme Court justice died, it was Anton Scalia. | ||
| And you remember the joy. | ||
| With which the leftists and liberals celebrated that death. | ||
| We're not so low as them. | ||
| We don't celebrate this death or any death. | ||
| Here's where I would like to play a supercut of Alex screaming about how she's a witch and burning in hell. | ||
| I, man, man. | ||
| But I did not end up creating it. | ||
| But you will get to hear Alex. | ||
| Behave quite counter. | ||
| Throw hands. | ||
| If you say that to me, if Harrison Smith says that to my face, I'm throwing hands. | ||
| That's just what's happening. | ||
| We're above this. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| I'm hitting you. | ||
| I'm not above hitting you for saying something like that. | ||
| We are above that kind of undignified behavior. | ||
| Did you know that violence is sometimes justified when somebody like him says some bullshit like that? | ||
| Well, and it's immediately followed up with this. | ||
| We don't celebrate this death or any death. | ||
| We do, however, recognize that this is a massive opportunity for Trump. | ||
| I mean, what's your point? | ||
| I really just... | ||
| The currency of the far right is the, we would never do this, but... | ||
| Here's us doing it. | ||
| That's what they do. | ||
| That's their currency. | ||
| We're not going to celebrate this, but we're excited for the opportunity. | ||
| Hey, this is a great thing for everybody involved. | ||
| What are we doing? | ||
| Very strange. | ||
| So, there's a term that's used in the sort of final statement that Ginsburg put out. | ||
| And this becomes a hinge upon which Harrison Smith... | ||
| Now, as she was dying just days before her death, as the NPR article says, as her strength waned, Ginsburg dictated this statement to her granddaughter. | ||
| Quote, Interesting choice of words. | ||
| President being installed. | ||
| That's what... | ||
| The CIA does. | ||
| Harrison Smith can go ahead and just fuck himself. | ||
| Installed is a term that's very regularly used to describe the ascension of someone to a position of leadership, particularly presidencies. | ||
| If you just Google the terms install and president, you'll find tons of articles that are based on press releases about things like Larry Schnell being installed as the president of the Livestock Marketing Association back in August, or a 2019 announcement that Dr. Stephen McDonald was installed as president of the Minnesota Dental Association. | ||
| If you consult dictionaries, the reason that this term is used regularly about heads of organizations is because it denotes that their ascending to that position requires a special ceremony, like an inauguration. | ||
| Grammatically, it makes total sense, but for Harrison, he knows that his listeners will just hear in stall And think of some speakers they put in in their man cave, and that's the point that they'll get. | ||
| Somebody put him in there, which is technically true, which is why there's a Supreme Court justice that has to stand there and be like, I swear you in! | ||
| That's called installing a president. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| The point here is that install means something that you did yourself, something you designed. | ||
| That's the point that he wants to make. | ||
| The word in this context doesn't mean that, and it's embarrassing to see Harrison play this game. | ||
| My next note here is Harrison is damn boring. | ||
| He is trash. | ||
| He is so bad at this. | ||
| I don't care for him at all. | ||
| And at this point, I was just sitting here thinking like, alright, you're playing this weird word game that's woefully transparent. | ||
| You're not interesting. | ||
| You're bad on the mic. | ||
| And so thankfully, you know, he saved the ship with this. | ||
| And folks, I will be joined later in this program by Alex Jones, who has some breaking news about... | ||
| Who may be appointed by President Trump, of course one of these names off of the shortlist that he revealed last week. | ||
| So, Alex is coming in, and I'm like, alright, at least he'll maybe be drunk. | ||
| There'll be some kind of firework. | ||
| Be something great. | ||
| Alex will bring something to the table. | ||
| And he's gonna jerk off on Harrison Smith's head. | ||
| This guy is just a dud. | ||
| It's really embarrassing. | ||
| The worst part is he's doing the fucking vocal patterns of Alex, but in a very boring and uninteresting way. | ||
| Like, the way he goes, like, and we have something new! | ||
| Coming up, and then, and so, and what you have, and so that's the way it goes. | ||
| I mean, I would believe that he's 26 as easily as I would believe he's 15. Like, I have no idea who this dumb intern is that Alex has made a host of his evening show. | ||
| But I would not be surprised if pretty much all of his experience... | ||
| In this arena comes from Infowars. | ||
| Yeah, that makes sense. | ||
| It's an in-house style, if you will. | ||
| Yeah, somewhat. | ||
| But the other thing, too, that's really annoying is that we're not going to celebrate, but this is a great opportunity. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| That kind of weaselly nonsense is just really annoying when it's coming from someone like Harrison. | ||
| Of course, he was a diehard leftist and was sort of the ringleader of the liberals there on that court. | ||
| And was instrumental in making many decisions that we here on the right would consider severely damaging to our country. | ||
| But you know, I'm not going to say anything bad. | ||
| I'm not going to say anything bad. | ||
| I'm not going to make any jokes about it. | ||
| I'm not going to play any distasteful songs from The Wizard of Oz. | ||
| I'll do no such thing. | ||
| We're not here to celebrate death. | ||
| You just did. | ||
| That's what that is. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| That's saying that she's the Wicked Witch and ding dong the witch is dead without actually doing it. | ||
| I'm not going to celebrate her death. | ||
| I'm going to sarcastically celebrate her death, Dan. | ||
| It's a completely different thing. | ||
| It's really stupid. | ||
| No one can tell the difference. | ||
| I'm being very classy by... | ||
| Intimating how much I'm celebrating that she's dead. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Instead of out and out saying it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I would never call you an idiot. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You dumb motherfucker. | ||
| It's just disingenuous and I find it very annoying. | ||
| And I don't mind it from somebody a little bit more gifted. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's transparent bullshit either way, but from him it's just petty and condescending. | ||
| And when my job is essentially to take in this content, I do like... | ||
| Find myself hating boring people more than people who are interesting. | ||
| If I have to survive this nonsense, at least entertain me. | ||
| It's taken as read that I'm gonna hate you. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Your policies, your beliefs are abhorrent, but I... | ||
| There's a special circle of hell for people like Harrison who are so boring. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| And one of the things, too, is I just don't think he's all that confident. | ||
| I don't think he really knows how to cover this story. | ||
| And that's unfortunate because he's on air, it's breaking, and it's a giant story. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| And so there was like a Trump speech going on, and he's desperately trying to see what signals Trump is giving for the ability to like, oh, this is the angle. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What's our line? | |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| What's our line? | ||
| We're keeping an eye. | ||
| On President Trump at the podium now. | ||
| And we're eagerly awaiting the moment where maybe somebody in the crowd sees a tweet and shouts this out. | ||
| Or maybe an assistant of Donald Trump can sneak up and whisper in his ear that Ruth Bader Ginsburg has passed away. | ||
| And maybe he'll make a statement about it. | ||
| That would be ideal because there's one thing we know about Trump. | ||
| It's that his off-the-cuff statements are often more truthful. | ||
| And certainly more appropriate and exciting than his prepared statements. | ||
| I need direction. | ||
| That's what I hear there. | ||
| All I heard was him saying, please tell us what to think. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I am unable to think on my own. | ||
| And if I do say what I want to say and it's wrong, you're going to be mad at me. | ||
| And I don't want anybody to be mad at me. | ||
| There are probably more eyes on this than normal. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Like, episodes that Harrison is doing, because he's trash. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And there's people who are like, oh, let's check in and see what's going on over on this ding-dong outlet. | ||
| And then you see this dweeb up there. | ||
| You've got Harrison. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| And he doesn't know what to do. | ||
| Like, there's just... | ||
| There's an inability to really take a stand, like Alex might. | ||
| It does seem like what should have happened is the moment the news hit and he said it, Alex should have come barreling in off-screen and tossed him to the sun and be like, Harrison can't do this! | ||
| Me! | ||
| Me time! | ||
| Me time! | ||
| Time for daddy! | ||
| Yeah, exactly! | ||
| Son, go to your room! | ||
|
unidentified
|
You haven't graduated to this yet! | |
| Get the... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Fuck out of here! | |
| Fuck you, Harrison. | ||
| This is the big time. | ||
| This is the big leagues. | ||
| You can't fuck around with this. | ||
| I'm not throwing in a rookie on this bullshit. | ||
| This is so important that I'm going to cover this shift. | ||
| And quite frankly, I don't even think Owen can handle it. | ||
| He's going to be beating you up in the other room, giving you a swirling. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| That's the pecking order. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And I think that Alex should have. | ||
| I think he should have run in there. | ||
| He should have started the show. | ||
| He should have been hosting from the beginning because... | ||
| When there's more people watching, obviously you have an expectation or belief that you can monetize that. | ||
| First impressions are everything, and Harrison should not be your first impression. | ||
| No, and he's not a closer either. | ||
| These ads are terrible that he does, too. | ||
| It's a Friday night. | ||
| We've got a full crew in the house. | ||
| Alex Jones is in the house. | ||
| And, of course, we have Norm Pattis on the line to break down everything. | ||
| All of the... | ||
| Incredible events that will now be put into motion now that Ruth Bader Ginsburg has passed away at the age of 87. And you can support everything that we do, all of these great guests, all of the crew, myself, Alex Jones. | ||
| We are all funded solely by you, the viewers, the listeners, the supporters, the InfoWarriors out there. | ||
| Going to InfoWarStore.com and taking advantage of some of our great sales. | ||
| Of course, it's the emergency election sale. | ||
| It's a total blowout. | ||
| Total blowout. | ||
| Oh, boy. | ||
| That's just not going to do the trick. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Bob Rorman, buy a car from here. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Oh, boy. | ||
| That is not a call to action that is going to be effective in the Infowars style. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And I just can't imagine it being worth... | ||
| He didn't tell me I was about to die, and that's why I should help him, so I'm not going to help him. | ||
| Right, it's just a blowout. | ||
| You always have fucking sales going on. | ||
| Is it still the Easter sale going on right now? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I think it is. | |
| Yeah, I hope so. | ||
| It's an emergency Easter sale. | ||
| Isn't Easter an emergency? | ||
| So Alex does show up. | ||
| Thankfully. | ||
| And business picks up, let's say, just by virtue of the fact that he knows what he's doing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| And so he's trying to make the rationalization that Trump needs to immediately put someone in before the election. | ||
| The average life expectancy with pancreatic cancer is six months. | ||
| She's lived four years with it. | ||
| She's been given Darth Vader liver technology. | ||
| She's had liver cancer, a bunch of other cancers. | ||
| They have kept her alive. | ||
| And now with 40... | ||
| Five days left, she dies. | ||
| That is going to be like throwing gasoline and oxygen on a fire. | ||
| It's going to be like flamethrowers in a fireworks factory. | ||
| The left is going to go apoplectic. | ||
| They're going to go thermonuclear. | ||
| They're going to go completely crazy, completely ape. | ||
| And obviously Trump should not wait until he wins or loses. | ||
| The left's going to say, oh, he should wait. | ||
| No. | ||
| If the Democrats were in this position, they would nominate. | ||
| That process would begin. | ||
| Yeah, but in reality, we've been here. | ||
| We don't need to talk about what the Democrats would do. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, no. | |
| Hypothetically, the Democrats would nominate a judge and put them to the floor of the Senate for a vote. | ||
| And then in that situation, the Senate would, of course... | ||
| Block the nomination until the election of the next president. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| It's not even, like, something we have to deal with in abstract terms. | ||
| It's very clear how this plays out, because it did. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| A couple years ago. | ||
| God, I hate everybody so much. | ||
| It's frustrating. | ||
| I hate everyone so much. | ||
| Everybody who's like, oh, but you did this four years ago makes me want to throw up. | ||
| They make me want to throw up. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| They really do. | ||
| Are you telling me you think that he was making a good faith argument back then? | ||
| Do you think that he was being... | ||
| He was like, no, no, no, I'm saying this because I think it's true, not because I just don't want to let a fucking... | ||
| Right. | ||
| Fuck off! | ||
| There's a naivete. | ||
| It's stupid. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| It's legitimately stupid. | ||
| I think that most people have shame, and therefore, you have an expectation... | ||
| If you were called out for doing exactly the opposite thing that you said you would do, you would feel bad about it. | ||
| Of course! | ||
| It would be too obvious. | ||
| I think it's naive to assume that politicians, particularly on the right, are capable of that. | ||
| I'm more disappointed with anybody on the left who is like, no, we don't need to do that because he didn't do that. | ||
| Fuck you. | ||
| You're being hypocritical. | ||
| He was just lying. | ||
| You're the one who's like, Because what they're doing is they're saying if this situation happens again, we've already set two precedents so we can never... | ||
|
unidentified
|
What kind of morons are these people? | |
| I'm doing great, Dan. | ||
| Great. | ||
| I'm doing great. | ||
| So, the patriots, people like Alex, people like Harrison, they're above it. | ||
| They're above relishing. | ||
| Someone's death. | ||
| Now, admittedly, we love relishing their death. | ||
| But we're above it. | ||
| They're above it. | ||
| Now, here's where Alex starts to get fancy. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| And this, you know, I talked to a White House advisor as well, not to two of the White House lawyers today, just in the last 30 minutes before we went along. | ||
| Well, you were already live. | ||
| I was talking to them. | ||
| And they said, look, the really sick math is they had her own life support. | ||
| They could keep her alive with adrenaline and growth hormone and blood transfusions. | ||
| And it was her wish. | ||
| To go ahead and die, to get the vote out as a blood sacrifice, because her main mission was to get abortion when she helped get through, and that blood sacrifice that Schumer talked about, you know, if you want a war, quit letting us have the blood of the babies. | ||
| We need that satanic energy. | ||
| And so this Skeksy, who went on to, you know, obviously meet her maker in the ninth circle of Hades today, I mean, there's no doubt Ruth Gader Binsburg, you know, who helped kill millions of babies, is facing God today, and we're not going to ask what God's judgment is. | ||
| I think it's pretty obvious. | ||
| Ruth Gader Binsburg. | ||
| See, now, Dan, I have been looking at all the news today. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I've even been going into weirder circles, trying to find somebody with a better take on this than just what we all know, which is that this is fucked up and insane, and everybody is scrambling, because... | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And it probably won't end well. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And I couldn't deal with Alex, because that's your job, right? | ||
| And so I was so disappointed that nobody had anything good, but... | ||
| Hearing Alex say that this was a blood sacrifice warmed my heart, Dan. | ||
| It warmed my heart. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Ruth Gator Binsburg chose... | ||
| Performed a blood sacrifice to get the vote out. | ||
| Yes! | ||
| Yes! | ||
| Thank you! | ||
| Thank you! | ||
| Nobody said that Mitch McConnell probably killed her with polonium poisoning. | ||
| Nobody had anything good, but now that I know that it's a blood sacrifice to get the vote out, I'm in. | ||
| I told you business was picking up. | ||
| Business is picking up. | ||
| Harrison Smith can't come in with that shit. | ||
| That's Alex. | ||
| That's the difference between a pro and a guy who should be on the bench. | ||
| Not even in the league. | ||
| That's 40 home runs a year right now. | ||
| So Alex gets to discussing his inside information that he's got from talking to White House lawyers and stuff. | ||
| He knows who the pick is going to be. | ||
| I got a call from a lawyer that works for the president and I made another call to another lawyer literally 45 minutes ago as the show was starting. | ||
| And I said, what's the word? | ||
| And I said, it is Amy Coney Barrett. | ||
| Now, Trump can change his mind tomorrow, but... | ||
| Well, so that means nothing. | ||
| So, nothing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Amy Coney Barrett. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| People are stupid. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So that's Alex's big push. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| He's saying that Barrett is going to be the pick. | ||
| He's pretty regular on this point, on this episode, and at the beginning of the 19th, although something does end up changing. | ||
| He winds up supporting Merrick Garland. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That would be a twist. | ||
| That would be a twist. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And, you know, I think that Alex also is a little bit unsure how Trump is going to play this. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| And so he, too, really wants to get signals from Trump's speech. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
| And they don't have all the answers either. | ||
| I mean, they asked me my opinion, but I gave them mine. | ||
| And they said, listen, they didn't murder Ginsburg, but she was being kept alive by some very serious drugs. | ||
| And they said, we'll come on tomorrow or give me sources tomorrow. | ||
| She may have given up the ghost and said, go ahead and let me die before the election to supercharge all of the Democrats to go out and vote and to go crazy. | ||
| So if things were already... | ||
| I guess Trump's speaking live. | ||
| He talks about Ginsburg. | ||
| Let's go to it. | ||
| You guys just go to it. | ||
| The crew's watching. | ||
| We're going to clip that up. | ||
| Because we wish nothing against Ginsburg. | ||
| And we're sad that she's dead, even though she presided over the murder of all these babies and is a ghoul-like creature that tried to put women in the slave factories. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So, yeah. | ||
| That was a really good eulogy. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| We're sad that she's dead. | ||
| Even though murder factory... | ||
| We wish no harm on... | ||
| She's dead. | ||
| What harm are you suggesting? | ||
| I guess the afterlife. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| He's already said that she's in the ninth circle of hell. | ||
| Yeah, no, he said ninth circle of Hades, which he's mixing up his mythologies there. | ||
| But also, wasn't that the cold one? | ||
| She doesn't even need to worry about it. | ||
| I bet it was too hot. | ||
| Are those robes good and insulated? | ||
| I think so. | ||
| That's why we give them. | ||
| So Alex doesn't stay for very long. | ||
| He ends up leaving. | ||
| And then maybe Norm Pattis got on the phone or Deanna Lorraine came in. | ||
| I couldn't tell you because I don't care. | ||
| Who cares? | ||
| Fuck you, Harrison Smith. | ||
| We got blood sacrifice. | ||
| What is Norm fucking Pattis going to come with? | ||
| Get the fuck out of here. | ||
| When I say For the second time, that Ruth Bader Ginsburg's death was a blood sacrifice to get the vote out, you can give me the luck. | ||
| I have five. | ||
| I will be out of there shortly. | ||
| I've done what I need to do. | ||
| Yep. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So we jump in on the 19th, Alex's Saturday show, and this tone is weird. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| She just died? | ||
| Wow. | ||
| I didn't know that. | ||
| You're telling me now for the first time. | ||
| She led an amazing life. | ||
| What else can you say? | ||
| She was an amazing woman. | ||
| Whether you agreed or not, she was an amazing woman who led an amazing life. | ||
| I'm actually sad to hear that. | ||
| I have said to hear that. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| Is this what millennial Forrest Gump is going to look like? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Is this what we're gonna have to live with? | ||
| Is this going to win an Oscar? | ||
|
unidentified
|
All the munchkins and their descendants. | |
| If any, yes, let the joyous news be spread. | ||
| The wicked old witch at last is dead. | ||
| You know, folks, someone said this was in bad taste, but... | ||
| You did! | ||
| You said that was in bad taste! | ||
| Harrison said that the day before! | ||
| You said it was in bad taste! | ||
| You did! | ||
| Harrison literally said, I could play that clip from The Wizard of Oz. | ||
| God damn you! | ||
| Eight hours! | ||
| Now, the thing that I find really weird, and I didn't realize this, is that that clip of Trump finding out that Tiny Dancer is in that clip. | ||
| No! | ||
| I thought he was playing it! | ||
| Tiny Dancer is in the clip? | ||
| Who put Tiny Dancer in the clip? | ||
| Because he's at a rally. | ||
| He's at a rally, and so the tiny dancer was playing on the speakers. | ||
| And so that makes it even more surreal. | ||
| Why is the darkest timeline also the most parody? | ||
| It's very strange. | ||
| What are we doing? | ||
| I do really admire, in a hating kind of way, the balls that it takes to... | ||
| Basically have a whole thing about how we're classy. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And we're not gonna stoop to the levels that the left might. | ||
| And then literally the next day, open your show with the specific example of classlessness that you won't stoop to. | ||
| Look, we can't put a Supreme Court justice in during an election year. | ||
| Now, admittedly, if it was me, I would put it in a Supreme Court justice in. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ding dong! | |
| Jesus Christ. | ||
| So Alex seems to really relish this situation, the tensions that are going to rise, and I think that makes sense, because it's definitely one of the things that he can most easily monetize. | ||
| Obviously, 44 days out from the election, you can cut the suspense with a knife. | ||
| The year is 2020. | ||
| It is not disappointing. | ||
| It has been amazing. | ||
| It has been horrible. | ||
| It has been exhilarating. | ||
| It has been infuriating. | ||
| It has been nauseating. | ||
| It has been pain-taking. | ||
| It has been... | ||
| Piercing. | ||
| And let me just give you a little newsflash. | ||
| I think you don't need me to tell you this. | ||
| You tune in because you already know this already in your gut. | ||
| That's why we resonate. | ||
| You just tune in for the validation you already know is real. | ||
| The kinship. | ||
| It's not going to get any better next year. | ||
| It's only going to get crazier from here on out. | ||
| So, just get ready for that. | ||
| You talk about the hot seat, folks. | ||
| I go march around with a crew at like 100 degree temperature and I'm hardly sweating. | ||
| And they're like, you're not even sweating. | ||
| But you're in air conditioning at 69 degrees, you're sweating. | ||
| Because as soon as I get on air and there's hundreds of thousands of people tuned into these special shows, millions tuned in on the regular shows, that is a zeitgeist. | ||
| That's a spiritual connection. | ||
| I start sweating because... | ||
| This is big stuff! | ||
| And because I'm on cocaine! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah! | |
| Because there's stimulants in my super male vitality. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This year has not disappointed, Dan. | |
| It's definitely not been the year that I have been more disappointed in literally everyone on the planet than ever. | ||
| But, no, it hasn't been disappointing. | ||
| It's been so disappointing, I'm buying worms. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Alright? | ||
| I can't afford a casket. | ||
| I'm buying worms, okay? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| So, Alex introduces his guests, and like I mentioned already, we got Barnes, we got Norm. | ||
| We got the heroes. | ||
| They're both coming up, and it's just funny that neither of them are his lawyer in the Sandy Hook case anymore, but... | ||
| They're still coming on? | ||
| Bananas. | ||
| Very weird. | ||
| What is wrong with people? | ||
| And so, right as we went live, sweat. | ||
| Because this is big medicine. | ||
| This is big kahuna. | ||
| This is all our ancestors fighting to have resistance right at this point, to have us make it past this point where Satan is trying to exterminate our species. | ||
| And our ancestors are counting on us right now, and our very cells are demanding. | ||
| We kick some ass. | ||
| As soon as I go on air, all my old aches and pains go away. | ||
| All of a sudden, my muscles feel younger. | ||
| I feel all loose. | ||
| Because it's a war, people. | ||
| You're in the fight now. | ||
| War. | ||
| And if you're not having that feeling, something's wrong with you. | ||
| I can feel it, can't you? | ||
| And I can feel the enemy's lust to destroy it, and they will not. | ||
| Now, let's get into it. | ||
| We've got... | ||
| Constitutional lawyer Norm Pattis popping in at the bottom of the hour to get his take on what's coming. | ||
| Bob? | ||
| Barnes is gonna be joining us. | ||
| Weird. | ||
| Pause there. | ||
| I would say that this show does not deserve to be taken seriously. | ||
| This weird growling explanation for why he's sweating leading into my two former lawyers are gonna come and talk shit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Very dumb. | ||
| Yeah, yep. | ||
| We're fighting the literal Christian devil and just to prove to you that we are fighting him, I am going to make literal demon sounds as my way of... | ||
| Proving to you that I care. | ||
| And don't worry about all this sweat. | ||
| No, no. | ||
| Don't worry about all this sweat here. | ||
| I know it's... | ||
| Suspicious. | ||
| But don't worry about it. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| I have to create an entire mythology for why I'm sweating so much. | ||
| When I get on to my show, my pain goes away. | ||
| What he's describing is just adrenaline. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's all. | ||
| Whenever anybody's like, oh, it's stage health in stand-up comedy. | ||
| No, you get on stage, you're pumped full of adrenaline, and then you get off, and your adrenaline goes away, and you're like, oh, I still feel like shit. | ||
| Yeah, whenever I would... | ||
| One of the things that I noticed very regularly in my time doing stand-up was that getting on stage in front of a bunch of people is a really effective hangover cure. | ||
| Totally. | ||
| Whatever that adrenaline boost and... | ||
| The feeling that you have of the pressure, it takes away so much of the dull pain. | ||
| Oh, totally. | ||
| But then you get off stage 15 minutes later, and you're just like... | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| No, there's so many times where it's like... | ||
| That's why the trick is to drink while you're on stage. | ||
| And keep it going. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| So you've defeated the hangover by being on stage. | ||
| Take a couple shots while you're on stage. | ||
| And you'll be good afterwards. | ||
| Hey, there's nothing like the 11 o 'clock at Zany's on a Saturday night, buddy. | ||
| That's how you get through a hangover. | ||
| So, yeah, I think Alex might be a little over the top. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| Maybe he's just sweaty. | ||
| Maybe he's just a little sweaty. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's fine. | ||
| Anyway, earlier on the previous day's show, Harrison was playing a lot of games with the word install being used in Ginsburg's statement. | ||
| And Alex has decided that this is good enough to keep. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| So they're trying to act like it's bad that Mitch McConnell and Trump have done the right thing. | ||
| That's a no-brainer. | ||
| You know they would do that in a minute. | ||
| But here's the key. | ||
| What did RBG, Ruth Bader Ginsburg... | ||
| Dying words, if you believe it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Gator. | |
| And her most fervent wish, quote, my most fervent wish is that I not be replaced until a new president is installed. | ||
| Guys, give me the definition of installed. | ||
| Installed means put in place. | ||
| You install a puppet. | ||
| Installed is the term they use of installing a new dictator or installing a viceroy when a king puts in a puppet. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| Presidents are not installed. | ||
| What? | ||
| They are. | ||
| No. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Never. | ||
| Presidents can't be installed. | ||
| What? | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Words don't mean anything except for what I want them to mean. | ||
| It's very strange that they thought, like, this is good. | ||
| This works. | ||
| It plays, Dan. | ||
|
unidentified
|
How? | |
| It plays. | ||
| Word plays. | ||
| It's so dumb. | ||
| Alex keeps going down this road, too. | ||
| He seems, like, really interested in this theory. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, man. | |
| Let's type in Kim Jong-un installed after father's death. | ||
| Because they didn't have an election. | ||
| He was installed, whatever it was, 12 years ago. | ||
| Kim Jong-un installed as North Korean Supreme Leader. | ||
| BBC. | ||
| Let's see if my memory just off the top of my brain was right. | ||
| How many years ago was he installed? | ||
| This is a great radio. | ||
| Nine years ago. | ||
| Time just flies. | ||
| I felt like longer. | ||
| So my brain was not correct. | ||
| Nine and a half years ago. | ||
| Installed. | ||
| Installed. | ||
| RBGs. | ||
| Dying words. | ||
|
unidentified
|
My most favorite wish is that I not be replaced until a new president is very tall. | |
| Very classy. | ||
| Classy shit. | ||
| Can we show the scene where the Emperor Skeksy dies and the new one is installed? | ||
| Good stuff. | ||
| Good stuff. | ||
| Words, man! | ||
| This is great stuff. | ||
| Hey, words! | ||
| It is always really disappointing to know that at the end of the day, no matter how eloquent your argument, if there's a crowd of people just chanting install, install, install, you lost. | ||
| Right. | ||
| You lost. | ||
| Doesn't matter what your argument is, they're screaming install, install, install, install! | ||
| Yeah, you know. | ||
| Okay, fine, I guess that's what you got. | ||
| I could break out Webster's for you. | ||
| Yeah, right. | ||
| But... | ||
| He's yelling install over and over again, and I think he's got a point. | ||
| That's a pretty good argument. | ||
| I hate Alex Jones, and even I think, like, he might be onto something. | ||
| He does keep yelling that. | ||
| Let's check the dictionary definition of install. | ||
| Alex, there's more than one. | ||
| How dare you! | ||
| So, the night before, on the 18th, Alex had said that Trump's lawyer had told him that it was probably going to be Amy Coney Barrett. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| And now he's making good bets on that. | ||
| He seems to... | ||
| Be walking that back a little bit, being a little more general. | ||
| But can you imagine what they're going to do with whoever that nominee is? | ||
| I'll bet my bottom dollar it's a woman. | ||
| And as long as they're a constitutionalist, I don't care if they appointed all women. | ||
| I just don't want a bunch of globalist women like Kagan and Sotomayor and the rest of the people that are up there that vote like they're on the Communist Party Politburo, not... | ||
| Supreme Court justices. | ||
| So now he's saying he thinks it's going to be a woman. | ||
| Which is fine. | ||
| But less specific. | ||
| I don't care if it's a black person. | ||
| I just hate Thurgood Marshall and I would prefer Clarence Thomas to be in there. | ||
| You know. | ||
| Like a good person. | ||
| Alex the night before said that inside sources from the White House were saying Barrett. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Now he's a little more general. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Probably going to be. | |
| Which is weird because if he actually had a real source. | ||
| Seems like you would continue being like the word is. | ||
| Yeah, it seems like the ball is rolling pretty fast in her favor. | ||
| So now here's where things get really weird. | ||
| I mean, we've already had blood sacrifice. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| Certainly. | ||
| Sure, that's tops so far. | ||
| Yeah, now it gets even stranger because Alex suggests that maybe it's possible that Ruth Gator Binsberg has been dead for weeks. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| This is what I'm missing! | ||
| So the Crypt Keeper has probably been dead for weeks. | ||
| But they wanted to wait as long as they could. | ||
| My sources said she was dead a month ago. | ||
| I'd been seeing a month. | ||
| Remember, she was in the hospital for weeks and all these surgeries. | ||
| The word was. | ||
| But they wanted to push it longer so that it's closer up to the election so that there's not as much time. | ||
| But Mitch McConnell has the time because they knew Ginsburg was going to be going. | ||
| Most people live about 12 months. | ||
| The pancreatic cancer. | ||
| This is like QAnon shit, man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| You know, I totally understand why people retreat to conspiracy theories now. | ||
| Right now, I'm imagining living in a world where Ruth Bader Ginsburg was dead a month ago. | ||
| Yeah, and it's better. | ||
| It's better than the one I'm living in right now. | ||
| It's strange. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's weird. | |
| It's more fun. | ||
| I guess I would ask, why? | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because this, like... | ||
| This argument that Alex is making doesn't hold water. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| It makes perfect sense. | ||
| You want it to push it a month forward in order for it to be more of a tense situation. | ||
| I got bad news for you. | ||
| If this happened in April, it would be a tense situation. | ||
| I have bad news for you. | ||
| Period. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It is a tense situation. | ||
| Yeah, you don't need to wait a month to get the biggest bang for your buck. | ||
| Scalia died and it was a big tension situation. | ||
| She could have died any time. | ||
| Yes, absolutely. | ||
| Especially during an election cycle. | ||
| Like, at any point during the 2020 primaries or anything would have been fine. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| A month makes no difference. | ||
| No. | ||
| Realistically. | ||
| None. | ||
| Like, oh, no, no, no. | ||
| Mitch McConnell doesn't have the time to organize everybody. | ||
| That's what it is. | ||
| They wanted to push it back a month because if he had those extra four weeks, we'd be fucked. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| I'm sure that, like, by the time this episode comes out... | ||
| Yeah, there will be a vote. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| McConnell doesn't give a fuck. | ||
| No, of course not. | ||
| Absolutely not. | ||
| Yeah, but the thing that I think is really interesting is that Alex recognizes, even he's not so stupid that he doesn't realize, like, If I'm gonna suggest that she's been dead for a month, I better have a reason. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Now, that reason is stupid. | ||
| It's incredibly stupid. | ||
| It makes no sense. | ||
| None. | ||
| He doesn't support his conclusion, but yeah, maybe she's been dead for a month. | ||
| I like it. | ||
| His sources told him that. | ||
| I just haven't read any good takes, but now that I know she's already been dead for a month, that's even more disappointing. | ||
| You've had a month to write a good take on Ginsburg's death. | ||
| This is what we get from Schumer and Pelosi if they had a month to think about their plan? | ||
| They might not have known. | ||
| It's a need-to-know kind of thing. | ||
| That's fair. | ||
| It was a friends-and-family-only situation. | ||
| Only QAnon weirdos online and Alex's fake source were let in on this big secret. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Silly. | ||
| Oh, God. | ||
| Anyway, Alex, he's really... | ||
| Enjoying shitting on the dead in this episode. | ||
| No, it's not classic. | ||
| Which Harrison would not be cool with. | ||
| It's not cool. | ||
| Ruth Bader Ginsburg is part of an anti-human, globalist cult. | ||
| And a cult that wants to keep babies alive in incubators and sell their organs. | ||
| She is a ghoul. | ||
| He's just talking shit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Alright. | ||
| So now Alex, his belief is that Trump needs to put someone in. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Obviously. | ||
| And then when Trump wins the election, Clarence Thomas needs to get out of there. | ||
| So they can replace him with someone younger. | ||
| I'm fine with that. | ||
| So Trump will effectively have put in, what, four of nine? | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| It would almost make the Supreme Court so comically stupid as to be pointless and useless. | ||
| Oh, wait, it already is. | ||
| There we go. | ||
| So yeah, Clarence Thomas has got to go. | ||
| And Alex, in talking... | ||
| Why did he pick Clarence Thomas? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So in talking about this, he wants to bring up Scalia. | ||
| But he can't remember his name. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| The right thing to do is as soon as Trump wins again, Clarence Thomas, he should retire and not act like Ruth Bader Ginsburg. | ||
| But I don't think Clarence Thomas is a bad guy. | ||
| I do. | ||
| But since Scalise died... | ||
| Scalise? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Steve Scalise? | |
| Since the last Supreme Court justice died that he was always imitating. | ||
| Grover Cleveland? | ||
| He has had some rulings that have not been as good. | ||
| And that's another issue. | ||
| Scalia. | ||
| Scalia died in that bohemian grove of Texas. | ||
| Remember all that? | ||
| Obviously they killed him. | ||
| Obviously. | ||
| Obviously they killed him. | ||
| I love the temerity of Alex to be like, I can't remember this guy's name, but it was definitely murder. | ||
| Obviously they killed him. | ||
| It was big news. | ||
| So big, I could never forget his name. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And I got him confused with Scalise. | ||
| I mean, they're very similar names. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, if it was, yeah, fuck them. | |
| Alex refuses to bow down to Ruth Gator Binsburg. | ||
| Oh, no. | ||
| And, I mean, it's just, when you have people who have the beliefs that Alex is expressing, there's no real way to find a center. | ||
| No, no, no, no. | ||
| I'm on purpose not bowing down to Ginsburg. | ||
| Because she supported after-birth abortion, killing babies after they're born. | ||
| I'm all about women's empowerment, the rest of it, but that's just something early she did to make her bone. | ||
| She became an establishment person that presided over so much bad stuff, and I just hope she gets replaced with a constitutionalist, a nationalist, a patriot. | ||
| When you believe that access to safe abortion care is equivalent to murdering babies after they're born... | ||
| There's just no middle to find. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| That is a position where that person's not going to change their mind unless they're internally motivated to do so. | ||
| Nothing you can say is going to be effective. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Nope, they're gone. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's just gone. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So Alex has this view of Ginsburg, and he, you know, she's a demon, she's in hell now, all this. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| Not, like, bent out of shape that she's dead. | ||
| He's relieved. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Because when people he doesn't like die, he feels a sense of relief. | ||
| Seriously, I don't like speaking ill of the dead, but when I heard Mao Zedong, you know, about him dying, I feel like a weight's off my back, or Hitler, I mean... | ||
| Mao Zedong died in 1976. | ||
| Yeah, and when he heard about it... | ||
| Alex was two. | ||
| Yeah, and his dad was like, hey, listen... | ||
| The greatest communist leader in the world just died, man. | ||
| The Birchers have won. | ||
| Alex was two years old. | ||
| I bet his wife's gonna be great. | ||
| Alex was a year away from God telling him that he has an important quest. | ||
| That's true. | ||
|
unidentified
|
As a two-year-old child, he heard Mao died. | |
| That's true. | ||
| Oh, what a relief. | ||
| Oh, God. | ||
| Dad, I was really stressing about that. | ||
| I had so many problems. | ||
| Oh, it's like a weight has been lifted up. | ||
| When I heard that Mao died. | ||
| When I heard that Hitler died, obviously because I am my ancestors. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| When I heard that Mao died, I thought, I gotta get my blankie. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So, Norm comes in. | ||
| Norm Pattis. | ||
| Norm, great. | ||
| This clip confused me. | ||
| Okay. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I wouldn't be surprised to see the Southern District of New York make a surprise move and maybe perhaps make a move against Donald Trump as a means of distracting people, as a means of seizing the narrative. | |
| Okay, now you're getting into real inside baseball because we're not bragging. | ||
| We're not playing games. | ||
| You and I were talking to someone intimately connected to Donald Trump yesterday about a separate piece of intel you had about coming indictments in the Southern District that I've also been told are ready and going. | ||
| And we don't want to go too far about who we were talking to, but they also then brought up who Trump is planning to have replace Amy Coney Barrett. | ||
| And that is from someone very, very close to President Trump. | ||
| And just as people know, we're not making this up. | ||
| You were there in the meeting. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I was. | |
| That's confusing. | ||
| Why is Norm Pattis having a meeting with someone who's intimate and an advisor for Trump and Alex, too? | ||
| Like, what is that meeting? | ||
| I mean, I don't know if I believe this, and it might be Roger. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But, this is fucked up. | ||
| Yeah, if any of that is true, I'm not stoked. | ||
| I'm not stoked that anybody's in those positions where they can have those connections. | ||
| Why the fuck is Norm Pattis getting briefed on anything? | ||
| Why is Norm Pattis? | ||
| Great question. | ||
| That is the eternal question that we will never know. | ||
| So he's still saying that Coney Barrett is the choice. | ||
| His phrasing there was iffy. | ||
| But based on listening to this, he still thinks that she's the frontrunner. | ||
| And there's a really funny thing where him and Norm get into this whole thing like, yeah, yeah, she's religious, she's a Christian. | ||
| And everyone's like, oh, is she going to vote in the Supreme Court with her Christian beliefs? | ||
| They'd never say that about a Muslim. | ||
| They're doing a lot of, like, they only think it's a problem because she's a Christian. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Which is funny for later. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But they start discussing the Democrats, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| They've become more evil. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh. | |
| Over time. | ||
| Really? | ||
| How? | ||
| I think this might be slightly racist. | ||
| I'm a populist. | ||
| I'm an American. | ||
| And I'd love to see a reform of the Democratic Party. | ||
| The Democratic Party, it seems like 30 years ago, was not this evil norm. | ||
| What do you think's happened to them, or what have they become? | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know, I wish I knew. | |
| I like to, you know, I look at it from a philosophic perspective and say the bottom has fallen out of pluralism. | ||
| We no longer have a common consensus of values. | ||
| It's all about identity and power. | ||
| And it's demographic shift. | ||
| I think the Democrats have cast their lot with an emerging majority and decided that they're all in for that. | ||
| Oh. | ||
| I think what happened was the Democrats have thrown their lot in with non-white people, and I think I'm against that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That is what he said. | |
| That's exactly what he said. | ||
| He said they're going with the emerging majority, i.e. | ||
| non-whites, and I'm against non-whites having any power or identity. | ||
| Yeah, the Democratic Party is too interested in the needs of people who aren't white, and that is a bummer for Norm, apparently. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep, yep. | |
| That's fucked up. | ||
| I mean, that's what they all think. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| So Norm is a lawyer. | ||
| Yeah! | ||
| If you can pass the bar, it doesn't matter if you're a Nazi. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| And because he's a lawyer, it makes me really worried that he would say things like this. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I was very encouraged to hear Bill Barr encourage local prosecutors around the 94 districts in the country to consider sedition charges. | |
| Because I think that at some level, it wouldn't surprise me if somebody had the time to track the arrests of people in various unrest around the country. | ||
| You see, it's the same people traveling from city to city. | ||
| John Doe from whatever city in Portland. | ||
| Norman, if you want to follow suit, I'll do it with you. | ||
| We know who Antifa is. | ||
| We Soros publicly funds it, brother. | ||
| He publicly funds it. | ||
| He publicly funds it, brother. | ||
| How's Stone's defense fund doing? | ||
| He's doing great. | ||
| I'll file a suit along with him to really work on that one at any moment now. | ||
| Can I predict this isn't going to happen? | ||
| Why would you make that prediction, Dan? | ||
| This suit's not going to happen. | ||
| On what grounds? | ||
| Shenanigans. | ||
| Shenanigans is a good ground. | ||
| So, the things that disturb me about that in Norm's thinking patterns are, one, he wants protesters charged with sedition. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Which is wild. | ||
| No, no, no, it's great. | ||
| And then the second thing is that he has no evidence or any reason to believe that this is the case, but he's suggesting and floating the idea that all of these protesters in various cities are the same people going around to cause trouble. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| That's not responsible. | ||
| No, what it means, Dan, is if you kill protesters in your city, you're not just saving yourself. | ||
| You're saving the entire country, because those protesters would just go to another city and bother other people, Dan. | ||
| Yeah, that's a pretty disturbing kind of thinking to have. | ||
| It's not good. | ||
| No, it's not. | ||
| So Norm sucks, and I don't care for him much. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| He worries me. | ||
| No. | ||
| Now, Norm gets out of there. | ||
| He comes in for a nice quick sting and then gets out, and now we've got Alex's other lawyer. | ||
| Bob Barnes. | ||
| What do we got from Barnes? | ||
| Well, it's clear now that they withheld information about the dire nature of her health. | ||
| She was clearly in far worse condition than they let on. | ||
| Whether she was trying to stay alive or at least publicly be seen as being alive until after the election is no big question. | ||
| There are some people who think the timing of the disclosure of this was meant to be election influenced. | ||
| We'll never know the full truth because they were able to keep... | ||
| Information about her health so secret. | ||
| There's a cover-up. | ||
| So you're saying that the Democrats have maybe been weakened at Bernie's-ing Ruth Bader Ginsburg? | ||
| I mean, that's one reading you could take of his comments. | ||
| It wants to be seen as alive? | ||
| That's kind of... | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's... | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Norm might be another one. | ||
| Bob might be a she's been dead for a while kind of guy. | ||
| She's been dead for a while. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| All right. | ||
| I would say this is silly, and he is a lawyer, which is not good. | ||
| But the thing is that I feel like the coverage of Ruth Bader Ginsburg's health over the past, let's say, year has been... | ||
| Hyper-focused on how tough a situation she's in. | ||
| Yes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| I don't know how much of a cover-up of the severity of her health issues there is, considering all of these headlines about her going to the hospital happened over and over again. | ||
| If she goes to the hospital, the entire fucking news system breaks down, and everyone's like, everybody's holding their breath, because it's just Ruth Bader Ginsburg going to the hospital again. | ||
| This is not a big deal. | ||
| Oh my god, what if she died? | ||
| I find the exact opposite to Barnes rings more true. | ||
| So Barnes has got a different prediction than Alex. | ||
| Alex is still saying he knows that it's going to be a woman justice, but he also thinks that it's going to be Barrett. | ||
| Barnes... | ||
| Tom Cotton? | ||
| No. | ||
| Slightly different pick. | ||
| I said last night I predicted Barbara Legale would be the nominee, and now there's reports today that she's the leading candidate. | ||
| She is a Cuban-American daughter of immigrants, speaks Spanish and English from Miami, but a well-regarded conservative on the court, comes from that sort of Catholic-Cuban conservative tradition. | ||
| So she demographically is perfect, very hard for the Romney-lite types and the rhino types, and for Collins and Murkowski to turn down her. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| That's weird, too. | ||
| That's a little racist, too. | ||
| We got a Cuban, so they can't say no. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's... | ||
|
unidentified
|
These guys just don't even bother anymore. | |
| Two dubiously racist lawyers in a row. | ||
| I don't like the Democrats, because they got those non-whites, and if we get a Cuban, they can't say shit. | ||
| So, there we go. | ||
| Whiteness is great. | ||
| Alex, at this point, decides... | ||
| Fuck all of the, like, me pretending I have inside sources that have told me Barrett is going to be the nominee. | ||
| Sure, sure, sure. | ||
| Because Barnes is making some sense. | ||
| Yeah, why not? | ||
| And it would be great if that was the candidate, because then it would prove we're not racist. | ||
| Oh, God. | ||
| Okay, and I know you've got incredible sources. | ||
| You tweeted that last night. | ||
| They were saying Amy Coney Barrett, who I like. | ||
| But even better, if she's just as conservative, and if she's a beautiful Latina, that will really throw it in the left saying we're all racist faces. | ||
| Yeah, that'll throw it in people's faces. | ||
| What are we doing? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| What are we doing? | ||
| Yeah, that'll prove that we're not interested in tokenism. | ||
| It's very silly, this thinking. | ||
| Oh, good. | ||
| So, Barnes has... | ||
| I don't know if what he's saying is true or not, because I didn't care. | ||
| I didn't care to look into this. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| But he has some pretty compelling reasons why Amy Coney Barrett... | ||
| Should not be on the Supreme Court. | ||
| And it actually has to do with the payoff to the humor of Alex and Norm talking about, like, oh, they're all coming down on her because she's Christian. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, I think Barrett is big on a lot of people's nominations, but I'm not as big of a fan. | ||
| Barrett has made comments to the effect that she will recuse herself from a decision where the Pope has a position, which means she couldn't rule on abortion. | ||
| My God, the Pope could constantly then make positions to control the U.S. Supreme Court. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| And in fact, of course, he now has come out on immigration issues. | ||
| That's completely the opposite of how they were discussing her faith in the interview with Norm not half an hour earlier from this. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So this is where we get into the situation that we've described a million times with exclusive groups. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| All Christians are fine now. | ||
| Well, we kicked out all the Muslims. | ||
| Guess who we hate? | ||
| Catholics. | ||
| It's not hard to read this coming. | ||
| Right. | ||
| It's happening currently. | ||
| There's historical precedent for that, too. | ||
| We've been trying to kill Catholics for forever! | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And I would say that the Pope would have a difficult time controlling the Supreme Court. | ||
| If one person recused themselves, that's what recusing is not taking part, as opposed to saying that the Pope is right about everything. | ||
| The ethical thing to do would be to recuse yourself, although I would say that that makes you not as effective as a Supreme Court justice if you're going to recuse yourself from all these hot-button issues. | ||
| I can only rule on things that my religion doesn't have a stance on. | ||
| My religion is Catholicism. | ||
| Notorious for not having a stance on literally everything! | ||
| Yeah, yep. | ||
| So, Barnes has some thoughts about Trump being real smart, and I think that this is actually quite dumb. | ||
| Well, the other problem they have is more and more people are seeing the consequences of the lockdowns. | ||
| So as the intelligence of Trump postponing certain stimulus benefits and the rest, as people started to realize there are real economic harms, real social harms of the lockdowns that are much more dangerous than COVID is. | ||
| So do you understand why that's stupid? | ||
| So many reasons. | ||
| So many reasons. | ||
| Trump is smart. | ||
| To delay these payments, because then people will start feeling economic consequences of the lockdowns, which could have been alleviated at least partially or maybe even mostly by way of a stimulus that would have sort of taken away a lot of the people's... | ||
| Motivation to have anti-mask protests and all that. | ||
| The stimulus and taking care of people in a way that can allow them to live safely would have gotten us through this virus outbreak much faster, much less death, much less economic consequence. | ||
| And all it would have taken is the exact same thing. | ||
| The Barnes says... | ||
| Trump is smart for not giving. | ||
| So, here's what we could have done. | ||
| We could have had an election that was a referendum on Trump's surprisingly perfect handling of a global pandemic. | ||
| What if we had gotten through this all fine? | ||
| People would have been like, wow, I guess he is a good president. | ||
| He got us through this pandemic. | ||
| That would have rolled along to re-election. | ||
| It would have been really hard. | ||
| Or, he could have killed hundreds of thousands of people. | ||
| In order to teach them a lesson about not getting uppity about wanting shit. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And how you gotta go to work. | ||
| You gotta go to fucking work, you idiots. | ||
| I'll teach you plebes how to do your job if it kills me. | ||
| Yeah, that's really weird rationalization. | ||
| When you're talking about, like, Trump was really smart to deprive people of something that led to them feeling... | ||
| Bad. | ||
| Can't feel bad if you're dead. | ||
| You know what I'm saying. | ||
| I know. | ||
| It's very strange. | ||
| I know. | ||
| This guy's a lawyer. | ||
| Ah, man. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It doesn't seem like the bar is as hard as they describe it. | ||
| It must not be. | ||
| Either that or you don't have to think about anything else ever. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| Maybe once you're in, you're in. | ||
| Yeah, I guess. | ||
| Anyway, Barnes gets out of there and we have another guest. | ||
| Like I said, Murderer's Row. | ||
| This dude is... | ||
| I don't know what the fuck's going on, but he is all over InfoWars these days. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Ali Alexander is a great political analyst, great talk show host, and writer and researcher, and he's on the road. | ||
| He was just up in Chicago at a big speech last night. | ||
| Damn! | ||
| How'd I miss that? | ||
| I'd love to go see Ali Alexander's speech. | ||
| I can't believe we missed that speech. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You know, you never go see stuff in the city. | ||
| To be fair, my tomatoes haven't grown yet. | ||
| Oh, that's true. | ||
| So I wouldn't have anything to throw. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| We would have had to go buy tomatoes. | ||
| Yeah, I can't do that. | ||
| That's expensive. | ||
| No. | ||
| Homegrown tomatoes only for throwing terrible performers. | ||
| It makes it more satisfying. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| You put the love in to the soil. | ||
| Farm to table despicable. | ||
| Farm to face. | ||
| That's what you get, Ollie. | ||
| I like it. | ||
| Farm to face it is. | ||
| I don't know what the fuck is going on with this dude, because he's terrible. | ||
| He's a little bit more interesting than Harrison Smith, though. | ||
| I'll give him that. | ||
| He's a religious wacko. | ||
| He's super... | ||
| So he's got that pedigree behind him. | ||
| He's a super zealot. | ||
| That does add a layer of... | ||
| Oh, this is where you're coming from, as opposed to just Harrison Smith, who might as well be a cardboard cutout. | ||
| He's a placeholder. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| But I don't know why. | ||
| He's all over Infowars the last couple months. | ||
| I don't know what the deal is. | ||
| I don't know if he has some sort of a contract or anything. | ||
| It's noticeable. | ||
| He's on all the time. | ||
| Oh, wow. | ||
| And, you know, he's got some ideas. | ||
| Abortion. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| It's a blood sacrifice. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| A lot of blood sacrifices. | ||
| I like a blood sacrifice. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is now the most important election in American history. | |
| There's no doubt about it. | ||
| This will determine whether or not millions of children continue to get aborted or not. | ||
| The left is going to get super violent if Trump wins or if he puts another justice on the Supreme Court before the election. | ||
| I mean, we really gotta stock up on all materials because... | ||
| You've never seen the left so feral as when we are threatening to take away their blood sacrifice, and that is the abortion lobby. | ||
| So, the blood sacrifice is somehow, like, here's what I think. | ||
| What do you think? | ||
| I think that if you believe that there's blood sacrifice going on that empowers the demonic globalists or whatever, and that's what allows this country to function or whatever, then you need to leave. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You can't be a part of this. | ||
| You can't take part in the American largesse. | ||
| You can't enjoy the free speech rights that are guaranteed by the government. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| You can't use our roads. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Because you know that that only exists because of blood sacrifices to the devil. | ||
| You can't live here. | ||
| It is... | ||
| I understand wanting to fight back against it. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But you can't live here. | ||
| No. | ||
| We live in reality. | ||
| And if you don't want to live in reality... | ||
| Then go somewhere where you can live in your reality. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right! | |
| Don't make me live your fakeness. | ||
| There's a thought experiment called The Ones Who Walk Away from Amalus. | ||
| It's like a fucking first year philosophy class thought experiment. | ||
| And it's essentially... | ||
| Well, Norm Pattis is probably an expert in that. | ||
| He likes to think philosophically. | ||
| He does. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| The idea of it basically is there's this place and everything operates really well. | ||
| people there are largely doing good. | ||
| And then at a certain point, everyone, when they're like 18 or whatever, they get taken to see... | ||
| what goes on in this secret room. | ||
| Sure. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And the only reason that the society is able to function as it does is because one child is getting the shit kicked out of them constantly. | |
| Constantly, all day, forever. | ||
| It's a Doctor Who episode as well. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, it's a classic thought experiment. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Oldest in time, yeah. | ||
| Right, and so the idea is you approach it from an ethical position, and what can you do? | ||
| You can only leave. | ||
| You can't take part in this society. | ||
| You can't, like, it's not wrong to want to save the child or whatever, but then you're causing... | ||
| The death of everybody else in the society. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right, right, right. | |
| It's a complicated question, and generally speaking, the ethically correct position is to leave. | ||
| You can only afford to live by your own principles. | ||
| Right. | ||
| To then try and make a rationalized, like, the needs of the many outweigh the few, so I'm fine with this, is a ridiculous argument. | ||
| Right, and that would be... | ||
| But it makes sense. | ||
| If you are applying it to other people without their knowledge. | ||
| You know, like stealing, like taking the kid and killing all of the people in the place. | ||
| That's you killing those people, essentially. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And obviously I disagree that abortion is a blood sacrifice that allows the society to operate, but based on their stated beliefs, that seems to be, like, why would they be doing blood sacrifices if it didn't somehow give them something they wanted? | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Obviously, these people who they're accusing of doing these blood sacrifices are doing it because it enables them to be in power or have our society function in the way that it does. | ||
| Therefore, leave, Alex. | ||
| Leave. | ||
| Love it or leave it. | ||
| It's not that. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| I mean more like... | ||
| Also, it's a bullshit thing for them to say anyway. | ||
| If you really believed that abortion was a blood sacrifice that happens to 50 million babies a year, And you're on the fucking phone talking to Alex Jones, you have no moral principles whatsoever. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You're making up that bullshit, period. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I mean, whatever life that you have is facilitated by that blood sacrifice, if you believe the things you're saying. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Therefore... | ||
| You're complicit. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| Unless you leave. | ||
| Unless you leave. | ||
| So, Alex should leave. | ||
| So, leave. | ||
| Please leave. | ||
| Just leave. | ||
| Just go. | ||
| Just go. | ||
| Yeah, it's silly and childish, but that's the name of the game. | ||
| Go live in Poland. | ||
| You love white supremacists. | ||
| Go on. | ||
| Get out of there. | ||
| So, Ali is talking here about how... | ||
| The left. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| They need to control history, right? | ||
| That's why they're all over the university. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| Because they need to control history, because then, when they bring in the authoritarianism, they can say that the right wing did it. | ||
| And Alex is very, very interested in this. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Invert reality more for me, buddy. | ||
| It's very... | ||
| He's so fascinated by it, and you can tell by his behavior. | ||
| Okay. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's why they need to own academia. | |
| That's why they want to own own history. | ||
| They want to rewrite it and say, oh, it was it was the Bible believers. | ||
| It was the whites. | ||
| It was the Southerners. | ||
| It was, you know, the right wing that turned this country authoritarian. | ||
| No, it's the left. | ||
| You guys have killed over 100 million people. | ||
| Well, I asked Gavin McGinnis like five years ago, I said, what's peak insanity from the left? | ||
| And it just gets crazy and crazier. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What is peak insanity about these people? | |
| You know, I don't know if I could answer that. | ||
| You know, that's a scary place to go. | ||
| Honest to God. | ||
| There is no peak. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, there may not be any peak. | |
| Alex is eating. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| You could actually even hear a crunch. | ||
| There is no peak. | ||
| You could hear him take a bite of something. | ||
| A chomp. | ||
| A good sandwich. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| I got a subway. | ||
| So this is the last clip, and it's Ali talking about how there needs to be increased security for people like Trump and senators and stuff because there are tons of people who are willing to die for abortion. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know, there are people who are willing to die for abortion. | |
| So the lone wolves on the left, there's just going to be hundreds of them, maybe thousands of them. | ||
| Well, that's the Soros plan. | ||
| Good luck, Soros. | ||
| He has an Operation Overthrow to overthrow the White House. | ||
| Alex is still eating. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Still eating. | |
| Still eating. | ||
| It's so rude. | ||
| How can you have him on that much? | ||
| Is he your lunch break? | ||
| Is that why you have him on all the time? | ||
| I don't know what the deal is, but like... | ||
| Is that an OSHA thing? | ||
| You have to have Ali come in while you eat to make sure that you're taking your lunch break? | ||
| Look, I have nothing but disrespect for Ali Alexander, and so I don't mind him being treated this way. | ||
| I think it's funny. | ||
| But I still recognize that it's fucking rude as hell. | ||
| It's rude as shit. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's rude as shit. | ||
| If I were him, I would not put up with this. | ||
| It's rude as shit. | ||
| Food to eat on the air, period! | ||
| Yeah, yeah, unless you're maybe like the Doughboys or something, it's a food show. | ||
| If it's thematically appropriate. | ||
| Makes a little bit more sense. | ||
| But like, to be interviewing somebody on a live broadcast and just be chowing down while they're talking to the point where you're unable to respond to things that they're saying and there's long gaps and then you're talking with your fucking mouth full, like, that's so rude! | ||
|
unidentified
|
President Nixon, you've had a complicated history. | |
| Could you please stop eating, sir? | ||
| Sir, could you please stop eating? | ||
| We're trying to do very consequential historical interviews. | ||
| You know what I think happened, if I can be totally honest? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| I think Alex kept saying the name Amy Coney Barrett, and he just kept thinking of chili dogs. | ||
| I want to go to Coney. | ||
| Chili dog. | ||
| I need a Coney. | ||
| That's my theory. | ||
| Coney's eyes. | ||
| Like a little chili dog. | ||
| Chop, chop, chop, chop. | ||
| Nathan's hot dogs. | ||
| Ah, that's good stuff. | ||
| Yeah, so... | ||
| Oh, boy. | ||
| Yeah, I think they handled this poorly. | ||
| I would say... | ||
| Honestly? | ||
| Honestly. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Like, honestly. | ||
| Like, honestly. | ||
| This is... | ||
| Medium bad takes that I've read about Ginsburg. | ||
| This is medium in the bad takes, right? | ||
| I would say top to bottom, not done well. | ||
| Not done well, no. | ||
| First problem, having Harrison Smith be the breaking news guy. | ||
| Real failure. | ||
| Disastrous. | ||
| Real failure. | ||
| Second problem, Alex only was on the 18th for a short period of time. | ||
| He should have been there the whole show. | ||
| No, that should have been taken over. | ||
| He came in and revolutionized the game with his blood sacrifice talk. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Like, that was where... | ||
| Things got real. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| That's your jumping off. | ||
| Then he's out of there and, you know, who knows what the fuck happened. | ||
| What's the point of sticking around? | ||
| You already got blood sacrifice out of it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But no, Alex should have stuck around because that theme could have evolved. | ||
| Oh, I was talking about if I'm watching it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| Or he could have been drunk, you know, like he wasn't, but he could have been. | ||
| Yeah, that would have been great. | ||
| And that would have been fantastic. | ||
| Could have been going nuts. | ||
| Would have been great. | ||
| So those are the problems with the 18th. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| The night of the 18th. | ||
| And the 19th. | ||
| Alex, in his conversations with his two former lawyers, reveals so much. | ||
| Like, he reveals that his source doesn't mean anything to him because he changes his position once Barnes comes up with something that sounds better. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Then he just completely... | ||
| Barnes, I think he likes Barnes more than Norm. | ||
| Yeah, well, Barnes is more flamboyant, I would say, compared to Norm. | ||
| Norm is very monotone. | ||
| I think that Barnes is on the level... | ||
| With fascism. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| Okay, that's probably smarter. | ||
| Well, he doesn't have to worry about places he's not allowed to practice law if he's in the fascist regime. | ||
| I think that they see eye-to-eye on that stuff more, and that Barnes is ambitious. | ||
| Because he was trying to set up that great American law center or whatever. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| And Norm just kind of wants to defend criminals. | ||
| Yeah, Barnes has schemes. | ||
| Yeah, he's up to something. | ||
| He's always up to something. | ||
| And Barnes will go on Stefan Molyneux's show. | ||
| Sure, sure, sure. | ||
| Barnes is better call-solving it all the time. | ||
| He's clearly up to no good. | ||
| And I think Norm is more just a sort of shady lawyer. | ||
| He's just a regular old asshole. | ||
| Hey, did you commit a crime? | ||
| Yeah, fuck it. | ||
| I'll take care of you. | ||
| Yeah, and through those conversations, the entire thing is flipped with Barrett's Catholicism in such a revealing way. | ||
| And then just a lack of dignified behavior, which is not... | ||
| Surprising. | ||
| That really is funny, because it probably will play out like this. | ||
| Barrett's nomination will be torpedoed by the fact that she's a Catholic. | ||
| Isn't that hilarious? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I mean, I don't think that it should or would, but I do think that probably from just a utility standpoint, you don't probably want somebody who's on record as saying that they have to recuse themselves in any matter that the Pope has weighed in. | ||
| Yeah, I know, that's what I'm saying. | ||
| If that's true. | ||
| That's not necessarily what I would describe as just being Catholic. | ||
| I would say that she's still perfectly qualified to be in a number of positions. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| But maybe, if you're putting someone on a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court, you might want somebody who doesn't have to recuse themselves a lot. | ||
| I mean, part of your Catholicism is generally believing that the Pope is the mouthpiece direct to God. | ||
| So, I mean, just generally, you know, like, we know Catholics don't actually believe that bullshit. | ||
| But, you know. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| People went apeshit because John F. Kennedy was Catholic. | ||
| True. | ||
| Yeah, I don't know. | ||
| I would say it's tragic that Ginsburg, or Gator Binsburg, died when she did. | ||
| Very sad for her family and for what it could pretend. | ||
| Yeah, it's hard to be, because we're flippant. | ||
| Naturally. | ||
| We're talking about Alex. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| And at the same time, it's just like... | ||
| It is an absolute tragedy. | ||
| And she was an icon. | ||
| Well deservedly so. | ||
| And this is affecting a lot of people. | ||
| And there are obviously problems with her record and stuff. | ||
| And you see people bring those up. | ||
| And I wish that that was more a conversation that was relevant for historians. | ||
| As opposed to trying to be like... | ||
| She wasn't that great. | ||
| I'm not even saying that might not necessarily be fair. | ||
| I don't venerate any political position. | ||
| Fuck them. | ||
| I just don't know the use of it in the immediate. | ||
| Obviously, I'm worried about what could happen. | ||
| I'm worried about the direction of things to come. | ||
| I think that now is a time when we really Have to be as active as we can be in terms of protecting people and their rights. | ||
| There's going to be an assault on that, quite frankly. | ||
| And I think we need to be very cognizant of the fact that there are some responsibilities that we have to not allow things to backslide as much as they possibly could. | ||
| And I don't know how we do that. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I would say mail your senator a letter. | ||
| Call them and tell them to fight this. | ||
| Don't back down to the pre-election appointment. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| I don't know how effective that would be. | ||
| Let's shut the government down. | ||
| With people. | ||
| I mean, look, it's all Byzantine nonsense rules. | ||
| Everybody's talking about how they could do all these parliamentary procedures to just delay it by time, and you're like, What world do we live in? | ||
| This is magic. | ||
| We're living by arcane nonsense rules. | ||
| What are we doing? | ||
| Show up. | ||
| Yeah, maybe. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Show up! | |
| Maybe that is something that... | ||
| If they have to have a quorum to vote, then surround the building and all of a sudden all the rules go away? | ||
| It's magic. | ||
| It's nonsense. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I'm not good at this. | ||
| I'm not good at having ideas of what to do. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| But I am good at looking at Alex and laughing at his dumbass. | ||
| That's what we got. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| So I hope everyone out there is doing all right. | ||
| We will be back. | ||
| But until then, we have a website. | ||
| We do have a website. | ||
| It's knowledgefight.com. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| We're also on Facebook. | ||
| We are on Facebook. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's on Twitter. | |
| We're on Twitter. | ||
| It's at knowledgefight and I go to bed Jordan. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| We're, yeah. | ||
| And now we're on Facebook. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And then we're also on iTunes. | ||
| Write your senator. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Write your congressman, write your families, and find a local bail fund or charity in your area. | ||
| Or a bear fund. | ||
| We'll be back. | ||
| But until then, I'm Neo. | ||
| I'm Leo. | ||
| I'm DZX Clark. | ||
| I'm Daryl Rundis. | ||
| I could do Harrison Smith's job better than he can, and I don't believe any of that shit. | ||
| Andy in Kansas, you're on the air. | ||
| Thanks for holding. | ||

|
Hello, Alex. | |
| I'm a first-time caller. | ||
| I'm a huge fan. | ||
| I love your work. |
