Dan and Jordan. | |
| Knowledge Fight. | ||
| I love you. | ||
| Hey, everybody. | ||
| Welcome back to Knowledge Fight. | ||
| I'm Dan. | ||
| I'm Jordan. | ||
| We're a couple dudes like to sit around, drink novelty beverages, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones. | ||
| Oh, indeed we are, Dan. | ||
| Jordan. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Jordan. | |
| Quick question for you. | ||
| What's up? | ||
| What's your bright spot today? | ||
| My bright spot today is I'd like to thank a wonk out there named Pat. | ||
| Who got in touch and helped me find some old Alex Jones episodes. | ||
| I'm still on the hunt for more, but it's one of the first times that a tip has actually paid off, and I've got some interesting stuff to look at. | ||
| So I really appreciate that. | ||
| That's good news. | ||
| Definitely, especially as the modern day is kind of like... | ||
| Spoiler alert, basically I'm really underselling the episode we're about to do. | ||
| Sure, sure, sure. | ||
| And I don't enjoy listening to it nearly as much as I probably would some... | ||
| Kind of like... | ||
| We did a deep in the past intellectual exercise kind of thing. | ||
| So you got home movies is what you're saying. | ||
| We're going to see clips of Alex playing baseball at 12. It's going to be great. | ||
| Unless it's a variant of baseball that is all about anti-communist heroes. | ||
| John Birchball, I believe, is what it's called. | ||
| Yeah, Birchball. | ||
| Yeah, so that's My Bright Spot. | ||
| How about you? | ||
| My Bright Spot, Dan, is I found a TV show called Wellington Paranormal that's made by the... | ||
| Same guys that did What We Do in the Shadows. | ||
| Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi. | ||
| It's fantastic! | ||
| It's really good. | ||
| It's like an X-Files that's super understated in that New Zealand way where it's like they're trying to give a ticket to a werewolf. | ||
| Like that kind of situation where they're just... | ||
| That sounds fun. | ||
| Oblivious to the absolute insanity going on around them is just like, no, we're just trying to do our jobs. | ||
| I can dig that. | ||
| Yeah, it's really, really funny. | ||
| It's in that great vein of the mockumentary kind of stuff. | ||
| It's great. | ||
| I hate these kinds of moments because I like... | ||
| I hear that and I'm like, that sounds good, I probably enjoy that. | ||
| You'll never see it. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| The second moment is like, I'm never going to watch that. | ||
| I'm never going to watch that shit. | ||
| Oh well, maybe one day. | ||
| Someday I'll get to New Zealand. | ||
| Then I'll watch it. | ||
| Yeah, we'll see it on the local TV. | ||
| You know, Jordan, I gotta say, I feel like it's been too long. | ||
| It feels like too long in between episodes. | ||
| What, between Mondays and Fridays? | ||
| Yeah, it really does. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| It just feels like too long. | ||
| You are... | ||
| I'm itching to be back in this seat. | ||
| You're utterly incapable of doing anything but 12 episodes per week. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| If you could, I would just... | ||
| I feel like we're getting back together and it's been forever. | ||
| It's surprising that it has been while. | ||
| Especially considering I think we watched a movie together on Tuesday. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Like, yeah. | ||
| Monday. | ||
| Whatever. | ||
| Anyway, we're back in the saddle. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Indeed. | |
| And today we'll be going over March 23rd and 24th, 2021, Blackjack. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Blackjack! | |
| Oh, goddammit. | ||
| And this is Tuesday and Wednesday of this year week. | ||
| Alright. | ||
| And there's something interesting that's going on, man. | ||
| Beginning of this week, Alex was gone again. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| He was out of studio again doing something. | ||
| On the East Coast. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Something mysterious. | ||
| He's trying to get out of Texas slowly, and then it keeps pulling him back in like the Twilight Zone kind of situation. | ||
| He apparently recorded a video of himself at the Skull and Bones. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| Which I applaud. | ||
| Going back to his roots. | ||
| No, absolutely. | ||
| It's the kind of thing he should be moving back towards. | ||
| Why not? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Certainly better than literal devil stuff. | ||
| Yeah, I'm on team fuck the Skull and Crossbow. | ||
| I don't like Yale or whatever it is. | ||
| Fine. | ||
| At the same time, as I expressed to you, I'm going to be furious if I have to do more episodes about where Geronimo's bones are. | ||
| Yeah, I'm not going to be stoked about that one. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| I don't want to hear it. | ||
| Anyway, he is back on the 23rd. | ||
| And I would say not better than ever. | ||
| And we'll get down to talking about that little stretch of time. | ||
| But before we do, let's take a little moment, Jordan, to say thank you to some folks who are now policy wonks. | ||
| Oh, that's a great idea. | ||
| So first, Globalist Big Dr. B. Thank you so much. | ||
| You are now a policy wonk. | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Thank you very much, BDB! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| Next, Jay in Maine. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| You are now a policy wonk. | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Thanks, Jay! | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Next, you are wow and policy punk. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| You are now a policy wonk. | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| You are, well, a policy... | ||
| Tongue twister. | ||
| Oh, boy. | ||
| Next, Lord Cakewagon. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| You are now a policy wonk. | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Thank you very much, Lord Cakewagon. | ||
| And Muffin Pants. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| You are now a policy wonk. | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Thank you very much, Muffin Pants. | ||
| Also, Baby Goblin. | ||
| What's going on? | ||
| You are now a policy wonk. | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Thank you very much, baby. | ||
| Did you know that Baby Goblin was made a lord between now and when they sent that in? | ||
| Oh, that's interesting. | ||
| So it's lord Baby Goblin now. | ||
| I did not realize that. | ||
| I apologize. | ||
| 40% of all wonks are lords. | ||
| I did not realize there was this honorific. | ||
| Yeah, it's a weird thing that happens. | ||
| And then also that reminded me that when we were doing our zipping up the mailbag, one of the things we forgot was that goblin. | ||
| Oh, I know! | ||
| That got sent it. | ||
| It was sitting right next to you. | ||
| I brought it from my place. | ||
| I was so gentle with it. | ||
| I was holding it in the palm of my hand like, I didn't let anything bad happen to it. | ||
| And then I didn't get to show anybody. | ||
| And that was from Cameron. | ||
| And so thank you so much, Cameron. | ||
| You are now a technocrat. | ||
| Yes, thank you very much. | ||
| And Drew Desadu. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| You are now a technocrat. | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Crikey, mate. | ||
| That's fantastic. | ||
| Have yourself a brew. | ||
| How's your 401k doing, bro? | ||
| All right, we got to go full tilt boogie on this, Watson, all right? | ||
| Let's just get down to business. | ||
| We ain't making that money off that heroin. | ||
| Why are you pimp so good? | ||
| My neck is freakishly large. | ||
| I declare Infowar on you. | ||
| Thank you to y 'all. | ||
| Yes, thank you very much. | ||
| So yeah, I would say that this stretch of time is bad. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And there was actually a bit more in it that I felt it was... | ||
| Offensively bad. | ||
| It felt more like, I don't want to do this. | ||
| Which type? | ||
| We have many different types of bad on this show. | ||
| We have the incompetent kind. | ||
| We have the uninspired kind. | ||
| We have the horrific evil kind. | ||
| What type of bad are we talking about? | ||
| We can't even use the word bad anymore. | ||
| Yeah, that's true. | ||
| It's tough to exactly pigeonhole it, but it just feels like generalized incitement. | ||
| And it's kind of a generalized, boring incitement. | ||
| That's not good. | ||
| That largely has to do around white fears and immigrants. | ||
| There's a lot of that. | ||
| And I questioned, on a certain level while I was listening to these, is this even worth it? | ||
| Does this rise to the level of paying attention to it? | ||
| Because it's pretty much just... | ||
| Fucking gross, most of the time. | ||
| Well, that's not good. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| No, it's not. | ||
| It's not even super bad. | ||
| It's just gross. | ||
| It's just real gross. | ||
| Anyway, here's a out-of-context drop from today's show. | ||
| These people are evil. | ||
| And when I say they're not even physically ugly, it's that they're not real. | ||
| Like, when you see a mannequin, or you see, like I say, plastic fruit, you know it's plastic fruit. | ||
| No matter how good it is, no matter how fake it is, you look at it, you go, that's fake. | ||
| You just know. | ||
| And you look at them, you go, that's not normal. | ||
| That's not normal. | ||
| Look at Brian Stelter. | ||
| That's not normal. | ||
| That's an enemy. | ||
| That's the enemy. | ||
| God, Blaggett. | ||
|
unidentified
|
God, Blaggett. | |
| Blaggett! | ||
| He screams to God himself, how dare you make me kill my son, Blaggett? | ||
| I heard that and I was like... | ||
| All I want to do now for the rest of my life is hide plastic fruit around Alex. | ||
| I was going to say, that sounds like a man who has tried to eat plastic fruit. | ||
| 100%. | ||
| I just want to get him on camera eating plastic fruit. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| It's like somebody who goes out of their way to all of a sudden be like, you know, I've never tripped going upstairs embarrassingly. | ||
| It's never happened to me. | ||
| I've seen tons of people do it before, but not me! | ||
| So, Alex is late to work on the 23rd, and it's because his plane was delayed. | ||
| And so he recorded himself prior to this, so he'd have something to play in the beginning of the show. | ||
| I'm Alex Jones, your host, and as we speak, I'm about to arrive at the studio and complete the transmission live. | ||
| But I'm coming to you from earlier today in the space-time continuum as major news and information breaks. | ||
| We're about to premiere this amazing report that only you can share with others and defeat the globalists. | ||
| This is seriously a mission. | ||
| We are seriously on the cutting edge of this fight. | ||
| This goddamn anti-communist Smokey the Bear. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Only you can stop the globalists. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| We gotta get... | ||
| We gotta get... | ||
| I want video surveillance footage of him recording that in a weird bathroom somewhere. | ||
| Right, and trying to eat the fake fruit. | ||
| Actually, I don't want that surveillance. | ||
| Never mind. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So, you know, here's some of the stuff he's covering in his pre-recorded shit. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Now, the incredible news is Project Veritas has done it yet again. | ||
| They just had a major court ruling where a judge said the New York Times printed lies about them, that they were fake news, that that was a known fraud, and that the New York Times lied. | ||
| Project Veritas did not win that lawsuit. | ||
| The headline that Alex is lying about here have to do with a New York Supreme Court judge determining that Veritas' defamation suit against the Times can move forward. | ||
| A couple articles in the Times referred to some Veritas videos as deceptive, but the judge felt that this was more opinion than it was straight up reporting of news. | ||
| This kind of ruling honestly just seems like a parody where a liar is getting the court to force journalists to strictly adhere to rules that they themselves think are jokes. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Anyway, the game here for Project Veritas isn't actually to win the case or anything like that. | ||
| It's about the media circus they can drum up along the way while simultaneously trying to make other outlets scared to critically cover their work. | ||
| That's what's going on here. | ||
| Yeah, there should be a consultancy for dumb old judges who are like, well, I guess we have to take these people as good faith actors because of the legal system. | ||
| And we could just be like, hey, no, you guys probably should have charged them with a federal crime a few years ago. | ||
| So no, fuck these guys. | ||
| So Alex still hasn't shown up at this point. | ||
| And it's getting to be like a ways into the show. | ||
| And so Owen's got to break in. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| With some big news. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, we are live inside the Infowars World Headquarters here. | ||
| Owen Troyer sitting in studio. | ||
| We're going to go back to Alex Jones here shortly. | ||
| He's going to be joining us live here shortly as well. | ||
| But I had to break in and report some of the latest that we know of the Boulder, Colorado shooter. | ||
| Obviously, his name, Ahmad al-Issa. | ||
| It's now coming out. | ||
| He was an Islamic State sympathizer, so an Islamicist. | ||
| He was an immigrant from Syria. | ||
| I don't know if I can find any evidence that he was an Islamic State sympathizer outside of wild conjecture being made by the guy who runs Jihad Watch. | ||
| Yeah, I was going to say, all we've got there is Owen read the name and he was like, well, obviously this is a terrorist. | ||
| And the thing that I find really interesting is even within the last week, you can see how news is dealt with differently. | ||
| When there was those shootings at the spas in Atlanta, Alex didn't even talk about it. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| And then the next day, it was like, ah, incel, weirdo! | ||
| Or whatever. | ||
| And then just moved on. | ||
| Maybe touched the story for a second on the second day. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| When it's this, break into coverage. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Owen Troyer's gotta come into studio to break in to give you the latest. | ||
| Eh, kinda see what's going on here. | ||
| This is something that should fill people with great shame. | ||
| Mm-hmm. | ||
| just on a really deep human level, just disgusting. | ||
| Because it proves beyond reasonable doubt that they are choosing which stories maliciously. | ||
| Not because of any kind of newsworthiness, purely by malice. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I mean, I think it's demonstrated throughout most of your career. | ||
| Sure, but I mean, there's no middle ground on that whatsoever. | ||
| No, it's pretty tough. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So Owen knows, I mean, he's been around long enough at Infowars that he knows the game. | ||
| He knows exactly what they do in these cases of shootings. | ||
| Gun control is coming. | ||
| Well, of course, but also psych meds. | ||
| We've got to talk about that. | ||
| We've got to portray him as the other side. | ||
| He was a leftist, bro. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| He was, it seems, maybe a paranoid schizophrenic. | ||
| So who knows what kind of pharmaceutical drugs he had been prescribed, potentially, for those mental problems. | ||
| And then we also have a lot of his social media activity before it was deleted, before it was deleted, showing that he was an anti-Trumper, he was a leftist. | ||
| Liberal, progressive, he was one of those that pushed the leftist narrative to a T. So, I mean, they do have some screenshots of what appear to be his social media, and I mean, some of those descriptions are slightly fair. | ||
| He had some posts that they showed that were critical of Trump, but like, I don't know how much, like, it doesn't seem like it has anything to do with, at least they haven't demonstrated at all that it has anything to do with what happened. | ||
| So, Alex plays audio of the shooting. | ||
| And I think it's incredibly exploitative, and I'm not going to play that here, but I'm going to play what he has afterwards. | ||
| This is something he had pre-recorded also. | ||
| His name was Eric Talley, a 51-year-old father of seven who was a patriot and who really loved human life and that everybody that knew him said was just an amazing person. | ||
| And he died heroically. | ||
| Helping stop some type of insane demonic psycho that went into a King's Super grocery store in Boulder, Colorado and shot and killed 10 people, including this police officer. | ||
| He's the only name we know right now. | ||
| This is tragic, and I'm not going to diminish anything, but the way Alex is behaving around this is really exploitative. | ||
| That's really the only way I can put it. | ||
| And then when Owen starts talking about what the solution to these problems are... | ||
| It kind of runs counter to the way Alex in his pre-recorded stuff is trying to build this up. | ||
| Look, here's the deal. | ||
| Mass shootings in this country are really a rare occurrence, and they would be even more rare if we had citizens with guns stopping them. | ||
| But they know the police take at least two minutes to get to the scene, so they know they can fire off at least a magazine or two full of rounds at innocent people killing people and get away with it. | ||
| Because they never get stopped until the cops show up. | ||
| One person, one citizen, one good citizen with a gun could have saved lives in that Colorado grocery store. | ||
| And so there's this whole notion like, oh, you just want it to be like the Wild Wild West, everybody with a pistol on their head. | ||
| No, that's not how I want it. | ||
| That's not how I want it at all. | ||
| I want white people to have guns. | ||
| All it took was one... | ||
| Crazy guy, one bad guy with a gun to kill ten people. | ||
| All it would have taken was one good guy with a gun in that store to stop it. | ||
| The problem is that one of the people who was killed was a cop who was responding, who had a gun. | ||
| Oh, they didn't give him the gun that day. | ||
| I mean, it's not like this disproves any possibility of someone disrupting an active shooting or anything like that, but the notion that they have that this is a magic, pardon the expression, a magic bullet. | ||
| To stop situations like this, it's just ludicrous. | ||
| Yeah, in order to stop mass shootings, we need to get one good guy with a gun to either assume people are going to be a mass shooter and just start killing before anyone is a mass shooter, or... | ||
| Get to the point where they're killing people after one or two killings. | ||
| So it's not a mass shooting. | ||
| It's just four or five people dead. | ||
| I don't think you're solving a goddamn thing. | ||
| Yeah, interject into the center of an active shooting and deputize yourself to shoot out with somebody who... | ||
| I don't think this is a good solution. | ||
| And I think that Infowars own reporting is a little bit convoluted on this front. | ||
| Anyway, Owen has a belief that most people won't ever really be affected by mass shootings. | ||
| And, I mean, that's a little offensive. | ||
| Very. | ||
| Everyone will be affected by liberal policies. | ||
| Oh, that'll happen. | ||
| Most people listening to this broadcast will probably never be directly impacted by a mass shooting. | ||
| Let's pray to God that continues. | ||
| But almost everybody listening to this podcast, almost everybody listening to this radio show, almost everybody watching this right now... | ||
| Is going to be negatively impacted by Democrat-Liberal policies, just like everyone in that grocery store was. | ||
| That's the real threat. | ||
| And now the liberal lefties are going so out of control, their minds are so warped, their minds are so bent, propagandized, they've become dangers to society. | ||
| So this individual was a danger to society. | ||
| He came in with a gun, he killed people. | ||
| Well, most of these liberals may not have a gun. | ||
| But they're dangers to society. | ||
| Their policies will kill you. | ||
| Their policies will kill freedom in the West. | ||
| So, the only policies, really, that he could be really talking about... | ||
| Have to be gun control, right? | ||
| Well, that's one possibility. | ||
| Disarming people who could be the good person with a gun who can carry out murder against a murderer. | ||
| Sure, sure, sure, sure. | ||
| Or, it's immigration-related, because this guy came from Syria a number of years back. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And so, that would be the leftist policy that he's attacking there. | ||
| Right. | ||
| They're letting people who do these mass shootings in. | ||
| Sure, sure, sure, sure. | ||
| And either way, it's dumb. | ||
| But it's also just disappointing. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, it's hard to just... | ||
| It's not far apart. | ||
| It's hard to be like, oh, it's liberals letting people in a week after it's not liberals letting people in. | ||
| You know, it's like, maybe there's a larger problem. | ||
| Maybe there's one that should be dealt with. | ||
| And maybe we should deal with it in a way that makes sense. | ||
| Or we could issue everybody guns. | ||
| Do you want a gun, Dan? | ||
| No. | ||
| Oh, are you sure? | ||
| Not at the moment. | ||
|
unidentified
|
On the hip? | |
| No, I'm alright for right now. | ||
| Okay, fine. | ||
| Would you like an appetizer? | ||
| Would you like a gun? | ||
| I'm okay. | ||
| Are you sure? | ||
| I also think that Owen's not the best prism to be looking at this through. | ||
| He's very milquetoast, but also clearly... | ||
| Pretty extreme. | ||
| He's got a psychopathic energy of the banality of evil going on about him. | ||
| Alex is more sort of interesting, and Harrison Smith is more of a straight-up bigot. | ||
| Yeah, Harrison Smith just says, don't let brown people in, and if they are in, shoot them with guns. | ||
| But being boring about it, which is terrifying. | ||
| So thankfully, Owen is done at this point, and Alex shows back up. | ||
| You know what he was doing? | ||
| He was on a secret mission. | ||
| Well, I was on a secret mission in Connecticut. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I bet we'll find out what it is! | |
| I am back in Austin. | ||
| Just landed about 30 minutes ago. | ||
| Rushed here to the studio. | ||
| Flight was a little bit delayed or I would have been here for the start of the broadcast. | ||
| So we don't know. | ||
| We don't get to find out what this secret mission was. | ||
| We don't. | ||
| We don't get to find out what it is? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| What about the video we have of it out there? | ||
| Well, I mean, he went to the Skull and Bones. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| But that wasn't his main trip. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| His main trip was, I would guess, if I had to bet anything, it would be lawyer-related. | ||
| It was in Connecticut. | ||
| It was in Connecticut. | ||
| Does he have any possible reason? | ||
| There's no secret mission I could think of to go to Connecticut. | ||
| Boy, you know, there's a lot of reasons to go to Connecticut if you're Alex Jones. | ||
| At the drop of a hat. | ||
| I would argue he has more reasons to go to Connecticut than just about anybody else alive. | ||
| He has one very specific reason to go to Connecticut. | ||
| He is locked into Connecticut. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I would guess it had something to do with maybe, like, Discovery or something. | ||
| Sure, sure. | ||
| To do with the Sandy Hook case. | ||
| I mean, like, I can't imagine it being unrelated to that case. | ||
| It would be hard. | ||
| It would be hard. | ||
| When he said he was going to the East Coast, I was like... | ||
| Smells like Sandy Hook something, but, you know, I don't know. | ||
| There's a lot of places he could go on the East Coast. | ||
| Sure, sure. | ||
| When he said it's Connecticut... | ||
| Well... | ||
| He's either... | ||
| It's either Sandy Hook case related or he went to Stanford and he's trying to get a job with Vince McMahon. | ||
| Ah, that's possible. | ||
| I'm not going to say no to that. | ||
| Yeah, that's the only other possibility. | ||
| Maybe he's enrolling in UConn. | ||
| He wants to be a Husky, Dan. | ||
| I went there for a semester. | ||
| Hey, maybe he's following your footsteps. | ||
| Yeah, he's always wanted to be me. | ||
| So, Trump, you know, this narrative gets really interesting with Alex at this point. | ||
| He's like, Obama, bad camps for immigrants and migrants coming over. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Bad. | |
| Trump cleaned it all up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Good. | |
| Everything is good. | ||
| Now, bad again. | ||
| How is it bad so fast? | ||
| It went bad really fast. | ||
| It seems like it's too fast. | ||
| Well, it's because Biden had a clip that Alex keeps playing where he's saying that he wants people to surge in whenever he becomes president. | ||
| And what he's talking about is people applying for refugee status that were disallowed from being able to apply for refugee status during the Trump administration. | ||
| We took four refugees during the entire Trump administration. | ||
| Biden's like, can we have more than four? | ||
| That's not accurate, but also the ceiling was dropped quite a bit. | ||
| Yes, I was being perhaps embellishing. | ||
| And the only way to apply for asylum in the United States as a refugee, you have to be in the United States. | ||
| So when the Trump administration would stop people from making it into consulates or on the border, that was what he's talking about. | ||
| So Alex is pretending that Biden was like, everybody! | ||
| Over the wall. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| And so anyway, it's bad now. | ||
| The camps are back to bad. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Remember all the nice facilities Trump built with the water fountains in each area? | ||
| And they said, oh, you're drinking out of toilets. | ||
| And AOC went and cried in front of a fence at a parking lot. | ||
| Well, she's not crying now because she's a monster and an exploiter for the most powerful, rich, tax-exempt billionaires on the planet, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| AOC literally came out immediately against Biden having migrant facilities open for children. | ||
| She tweeted, quote, Alex is making up that AOC doesn't oppose the things that Biden's administration is doing at the border because that's too complicated of a story for him to tell his audience. | ||
| The listeners are used to very simplistic good versus evil characterizations of people, so to introduce the idea that AOC was against the treatment of migrants under Trump and is still opposed to the same types of treatment under Biden, that represents a threat to the character. | ||
| Yeah, it really fucks things up whenever your enemy, I suppose, of Alex's has ideological consistency. | ||
| And ideological differences between the people Alex wants to pretend are all working for the fucking devil. | ||
| Yeah, that's what I'm saying. | ||
| He could have picked plenty of Democrats who were like, well, we're Democrats in the White House now, we don't need to worry about... | ||
| Yeah, that's not an unpopular opinion. | ||
| Yeah, but AOC is... | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So, most of this episode has been immigrant bashing at this point. | ||
| I have not cut out a... | ||
| Or I have not included a ton, just because it's kind of standard, boring immigrant bashing that I just don't... | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| He's said a lot of this stuff before. | ||
| Yeah, he hates non-white people going into the country. | ||
| We got it. | ||
| And then they're bringing in hard, core people. | ||
| Most of the, quote, Middle Eastern immigrants in the country, the refugees in the U.S., it's over 75% that are men. | ||
| Look the numbers up. | ||
| In Europe, again, looking up, 85 to 90% are men. | ||
| Military age men. | ||
| Yeah, there's this tweet, Ahmed Al-Isa, why refugees and immigrants are good for America. | ||
| So I was trying to connect that to the Boulder shooting, and it kind of makes a little clearer what Owen's line of thought probably was. | ||
| Like I said, this episode's almost impossible to listen to. | ||
| There's no real substance going on, and it's mostly Alex just rambling nonsense to make his listeners afraid of immigrants. | ||
| According to the Pew Research numbers put out in August 2020, Alex is completely full of shit. | ||
| One thing he probably doesn't even know is that, quote, That's 16% Muslim and 79% Christian. | ||
| That's super different than the picture Alex tends to paint, which is weird. | ||
| It's kind of weird. | ||
| Also, according to the statistics from the Department of Homeland Security regarding refugee arrivals in 2019, there's just no way to pretend that everyone coming in are military-aged men. | ||
| For one, 49% of arrivals in 2019 were women. | ||
| Secondly, 12% of all arrivals were age 45 or older, but then again, I have no idea what Alex would consider military-aged. | ||
| Finally, the thing that Alex is mostly banking on here is that 43.2% of arrivals were between the ages of 0 and 17. That's a pretty wide age gap, so using the same number, Alex could try to make you scared of refugee teens, and someone else could explain to you that a lot of these people are children. | ||
| Issues related to immigration and refugee resettlement are super important in the real world, but they aren't important when dealing with Alex. | ||
| He isn't living in reality and making an argument for policy. | ||
| He's decided that he hates immigration and the U.S. becoming less white, and he's making up shit to justify it. | ||
| None of this stuff is real, and it's just an appeal to fear, and it's boring. | ||
| Yeah, and it's really, really fucked up on the back of a racist, misogynist mass shooting. | ||
| Like, okay, whoa, we gotta hold off on being racist towards Asian for a little bit, so we can't not be racist. | ||
| So we're gonna switch targets to just blanket him. | ||
| How many fucking years are we going to do this? | ||
| It's not like this is a new thing for some white motherfucking asshole to start screaming that all immigrants are evil. | ||
| We do it... | ||
| All the goddamn time. | ||
| You mean Alex, not the shooters? | ||
| No, I don't mean... | ||
| Yeah, I mean Alex. | ||
| But I mean, like, it goes back... | ||
| You can read newspaper articles from 1790 where it's like, now we gotta close our fucking borders. | ||
| Right. | ||
| You know, it's like, we're just not gonna deal with it. | ||
| And the maligned groups can change, but the mentality stays the same. | ||
| And every time it winds up in violence, it doesn't stop! | ||
| And we could deal with it, but we just refused to under some bullshit banner of just like Project Veritas being allowed to go with their fucking lawsuit. | ||
| These guys are not good faith actors. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Probably not. | ||
| But you know who you should go to for information and ideas about immigration? | ||
| The Health Ranger? | ||
| Someone in Europe who has a great track record. | ||
| Oh, no. | ||
| Someone who might be the head of Hungary. | ||
| Oh, no. | ||
| Orban's come out from Eastern Europe and said it's forbidden to say so in Europe, but this is organized invasion. | ||
| 95% of the immigrants are military-age men. | ||
| Yeah, some of the boatloads come in there, 95% military-age men. | ||
| Hell, some are 100%, but the numbers we've gotten are 85%, 95%. | ||
| It's on, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| And when they're on video, they're like, I'm here to rape, I'm here to kill, I'm here to burn. | ||
| And they just start burning cities, raping. | ||
| Holy shit. | ||
| That seems extra. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And I don't know about appealing to Victor Orban as your guy. | ||
| I don't know if that's a great citation, seeing as he's made assisting refugees a criminal act. | ||
| Yeah, I would say, boy, it seems like he's like, you know what? | ||
| That Chow Chescue had some good policies. | ||
| I'm not saying he's a good guy, but when it comes to immigration, you want the Chow and you get the Chescue. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Yeah, it's strange. | ||
| Well, I mean, it's not strange at all. | ||
| It's very transparent. | ||
| Anyway, if Biden, you know, after these shootings that have happened, if he wants to take the guns, turns out Alex and his friends are going to be more deadly than the Viet Cong. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So let me tell you where this is going to end. | ||
| If Joe Biden tries to take the guns, it's going to wipe out law enforcement and a lot of military to cause a civil war that'll make the Vietnamese resistance in Vietnam look tame. | ||
| And then if they were even successful to break the back of the country and get most people to do it, it will then create a giant underground and lawlessness. | ||
| You'll have such bad police involved, they'll all be corrupt, that you will be worse than Mexico. | ||
| We will be a completely... | ||
| Failed state with kidnappings, murders, beheadings, hundreds of thousands dead every few years, just like we basically are becoming. | ||
| Because a Tower of Babel can be ruled by the AI globalist takeover that's killing everybody. | ||
| That wants a post-human world. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Yeah, I don't know. | ||
| I'm not sure exactly what he's trying to intimate. | ||
| Like, is it that if Biden... | ||
| Puts in better background check regulations for guns. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That everybody will be murdered on the street? | ||
| Or is it that he and his friends will start guerrilla warfare? | ||
| I think he's just imagining Red Dawn. | ||
| That's what he's talking about. | ||
| He's talking about joining the Wolverines. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Going up in the mountains and running the Swamp Fox 2.0. | ||
| Yeah, 1776 2.0. | ||
| No! | ||
| That's over with. | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| 1764 2.0, Dan. | ||
| It seems like a little... | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It doesn't make me feel all that comfortable. | ||
| It's going back to a lot of the ideas that were more popular within some of these militia right-wing communities earlier on. | ||
| The books like Unintended Consequences. | ||
| Those kinds of ideas, it's just not great to see them popping up again. | ||
| Things feel a lot more volatile right now. | ||
| Yeah, on the other hand, they are a bunch of cosplaying cowards that give up at the first hint of actual resistance. | ||
| It is a little bit heartening for me to look back on the 6th and remember that when push comes to shove... | ||
| Alex will say that it was never his idea, and it was all the liberals' fault in the end. | ||
| So I'm not too worried about guerrilla warfare from these assholes. | ||
| You know all those people who are out there doing the Red Dawn thing? | ||
| That's just Antifa. | ||
| No, that was Antifa. | ||
| They're Red Dawning us because of the double Red Dawn proposition. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So, boy, this isn't good. | ||
| Yeah, I'll just tell you that. | ||
| There's a good setup for this clip. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| This isn't good. | ||
| Not good. | ||
| So let me explain how this works. | ||
| They collapse the third world. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| They flood us with Africans, military-aged men, Europe particularly. | ||
| That doesn't sound right. | ||
| And then, yeah, I mean, you're in a town of 500 Germans. | ||
| They put 2,000 military-aged men, black men from a poor country there with no jobs at a refugee center. | ||
| They start raping and robbing you, some of them. | ||
| Now you hate black people. | ||
| Now you want to... | ||
| Annihilate them. | ||
| And see, that's how the globalists are going to make us join them in the extermination of the third world. | ||
| That's coming next. | ||
| I don't know if I would be susceptible to that sort of plan that the globalists would have, because I see other solutions to problems. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| I'm confused. | ||
| I'm not entirely sure if there are these towns with 500 people and 2,000 immigrants come into it, all men with no jobs or whatever, but let's assume that is the situation. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| I feel like there could be some other... | ||
| Sort of structural ways that we could deal with the issue. | ||
| Hey, let's put some government works projects together. | ||
| Get these people employed. | ||
| Let's get some jobs. | ||
| Let's get some maintenance. | ||
| I know this from the United States and Chicago specific. | ||
| Every bridge needs a little bit of work. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| That is true. | ||
| Bridges are scary. | ||
| They are deteriorating quick. | ||
| So let's get the government involved and inject a little bit. | ||
| That does make sense. | ||
| No, no, Alex is determined that this is how they're gonna trick you into wanting to annihilate a population. | ||
| Yeah, I really feel like maybe you don't need, or maybe, I feel like maybe you're manufacturing reasons to do what you already want to do. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| That's what I would, that would be my instant reaction to this. | ||
| Maybe you want to feel blameless about having those feelings already. | ||
| And so you're creating excuses. | ||
| I'm just going to go out on a limb here, and I'm going to say that that would probably become a national news story, maybe a global news story. | ||
| If Germany's government, Merkel is just like, yeah, we're going to put 2,000 only military-aged men in with this small, tiny town of 500 people, and then they're going to murder everyone. | ||
| And they'd be like, at the very least, this would call for a special session of Congress, right? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| At least one. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| One of the things that I think is really interesting is that Alex plays a lot of games with what he believes is going on. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| You know, like, he'll say that the globalists believe that they're talking to an extra-dimensional being. | ||
| I'm not saying I believe that. | ||
| No, no, no, he doesn't believe that. | ||
| I'm saying that that's what they believe. | ||
| I'm just here warning you what they believe. | ||
| He does follow that up usually with, now, it's obviously true. | ||
| Well, yeah, but just to be totally clear here, Alex is expressing that he literally believes he's fighting the biblical devil. | ||
| There we go. | ||
| And at the end of the day, they want to get everybody because, again, they make some of the elite white people think, oh, you're going to be part of the club. | ||
| No. | ||
| Now they admit it's a post-human world. | ||
| Whatever this is running things, and I believe the Bible, it's the devil, does not want any humans. | ||
| The Bible tells us the devil comes to destroy God's creation. | ||
| So Alex believes he's fighting the Christian, biblical, literal devil. | ||
| Question. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| For Alex's theology. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Uh-huh. | |
| All right. | ||
| So the devil... | ||
| Wants to destroy all humans. | ||
| Okay, what happens to their souls? | ||
| Do they still get heaven and hellified? | ||
| Or is he going for all the souls in heaven and hell too? | ||
| That's a great question. | ||
| And if so, how is he going to pull that one off? | ||
| Finally, should he succeed in killing all the humans? | ||
| Then what? | ||
| Or, let's go another direction. | ||
| Let's say Alex is successful in vanquishing the devil. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| What does he do? | ||
| Who takes over stewardship of hell? | ||
| Right. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| All those people are just hanging out? | ||
| That's gonna be chaos. | ||
| That's gonna be... | ||
| Yeah, that's really gonna fuck up the infrastructure of hell currently. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And then how does that reshape theology for the future? | ||
| Doesn't it? | ||
| It's like, okay, so we... | ||
| You have to rewrite the entire Bible. | ||
| There needs to be a new Bible. | ||
| There has to be an entirely new Bible. | ||
| A lot of it is probably gonna be based on stuff from our show. | ||
| It seems like it. | ||
| The animals of Alex Jones. | ||
| *laughter * You have the Old Testament, you have the New Testament, and the Jones Testament. | ||
| Yeah, because it nullifies almost all of the prophecies. | ||
| Like, the Revelations is... | ||
| You don't even talk about God defeating the devil or a thousand years of Jesus' reign. | ||
| It's just more like Alex did it. | ||
| That's the end of Revelations is, hey man, it was a good thing God gave us Alex fucking Jones. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure. | ||
| The last verse of the Bible is... | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm not bragging, but we did it, guys. | |
| Just one mission. | ||
| No Bible at all. | ||
| Just a mission accomplished banner. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| Yeah, I don't really quite understand what... | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I just think it's really important to recognize that whenever he says stuff like, I'm not saying that I believe this stuff. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| They believe. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| That's him trying to hold on to some thread of respectability and credibility with people who would call him... | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| He's like, I'm fighting the devil. | ||
| Yeah, that's tough. | ||
| Everybody needs to recognize that. | ||
| That's really tough. | ||
| You need to recognize, he thinks it's the devil! | ||
| I know. | ||
| It is a little bit like how they, all the articles about Roger Stone are always conspicuously like, he was a lobbyist and he was close to Trump's inner circle and they never mention that he hosted a show on InfoWars for two years. | ||
| That is a news outlet whose editorial position is staunchly anti-devil. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, 100% anti-communist. | |
| Antidevil. | ||
| Roger Stone absolutely, I guarantee, said that the basic problem is the devil. | ||
| Probably. | ||
| I don't know if he ever believed it. | ||
| I doubt it. | ||
| I don't know if he believes anything. | ||
| I think that it would be interesting to have that be what the public conversation is. | ||
| It's not like he's a free speech crusader. | ||
| He's not a Trump fan. | ||
| He's a guy who thinks he's fighting the devil. | ||
| Totally. | ||
| And he's also super racist. | ||
| But there are interesting things that he tries to get. | ||
| He's taken some calls here on the show. | ||
| And he has this conversation that he has with a caller about taking these racist feelings you have and then redirecting them at the globalists. | ||
| That's nice. | ||
| No. | ||
|
unidentified
|
2024, really a massive political expression is needed. | |
| Well, everything the enemy does is divide us. | ||
| And look, I'm tribal. | ||
| I got red blood. | ||
| Don't you think I see all this and get mad at groups? | ||
| Then I go, that's my animal side. | ||
| I had that programming to survive in the old times against a group attacking me, but the enemy is using that against us. | ||
| And we have to still defend ourselves against groups or whatever, but we have to be aware of the larger plan. | ||
| That's the only way to defeat this. | ||
| This is an alien attack. | ||
| I don't go off UFOs or any of that. | ||
| I mean, it's alien. | ||
| The whole thing is rewrite humans, bring in world government. | ||
| Also, UFOs are real. | ||
| They're going to kill everybody. | ||
| UFOs are real. | ||
| Well, I don't care if they were just killing the Africans. | ||
| I'm against it. | ||
| But the truth is, they're killing everybody. | ||
| Does that make sense? | ||
| Not totally. | ||
| But the point that he's trying to make is essentially that he has this old-timey racist programming that's inside him. | ||
| And you've got to take that and direct it towards the globalists. | ||
| And it's like, well... | ||
| No, you should rise above it. | ||
| At no point in time does he... | ||
| Wrestle with those feelings as opposed to just hate someone else. | ||
| It has to be evolution itself that makes him racist. | ||
| It can't possibly be cultural. | ||
| I actually don't think that he was talking about, like, caveman days. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| Where it's like a group... | ||
| I think he was talking about, like, when he was in high school. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Because he constantly talks about how black people would beat him up in high school. | ||
| Sure, sure. | ||
| He talks about that all the time. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| I think he's talking about youth. | ||
| What an asshole. | ||
| I think it's so ironic now with all the reports that we have from very credible sources and the government releasing shit that it's like Yes, of course. | ||
| You know, let's get some more, let's make those IFOs. | ||
| Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure. | ||
| I see what you said. | ||
| So Alex takes another call, and this guy, he seems to be worried that the FBI is following his social media. | ||
| And Alex's response to it is a little bit weird. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hey, Alex. | |
| So I just want to preface this message with what Paul said in First Colossians, because it's kind of scary. | ||
| What am I going to say? | ||
| He said that the powers of darkness were defeated on the cross, and that is our only hope right now. | ||
| Look, um... | ||
| I had the FBI show up at my house. | ||
| I have a TikTok account and Snapchat, and I basically preach the gospel on there, and I went into the vaccine. | ||
| I'm kind of nervous on this phone call, to be honest with you, because... | ||
| It's okay. | ||
| So the FBI's run by the Chinese now, and it's run by the globals. | ||
| They're told just to come out and intimidate you. | ||
| There's nothing to be afraid of. | ||
| That does relax me. | ||
| That's okay. | ||
| That's a wildly... | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| I'm so relaxed. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| I was worried about the FBI, but that was the American government's FBI. | ||
| Now that I know they're controlled by the Chinese, and the Chinese just tell them to go rough people up a little bit. | ||
| I don't know what to believe about this caller. | ||
| He sounds a little skittish and a little weird. | ||
| A little bit. | ||
| I don't believe that the FBI... | ||
| I don't know if I believe the FBI showed up at his house. | ||
| If they did, I believe that he's posting more on that account than he's letting off. | ||
| It does sound like maybe the FBI wouldn't just walk around at the behest of the Chinese government to scare him a little bit because of his TikTok. | ||
| Whatever the reality or non-reality of this one visit is, I'm guessing there's not going to be a follow-up visit and they're not listening to him call into Alex's show. | ||
| I would say so. | ||
| There's some delusional paranoia that's going on here, and Alex is doing a great disservice to his listener by being like, oh, don't worry about it. | ||
| It's just the FBI working for the Chinese. | ||
| Come on. | ||
| That is the way, like, to deal with delusional paranoia, he's like, we're not going to deal with the delusion whatsoever. | ||
| We're going to deal with the paranoia. | ||
| I'm going to try and make you calm down. | ||
| Of course the delusion is true. | ||
| I'm going to make you calm down, but also make it way worse. | ||
| Like, whatever you're worried about, so much worse. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Come on, what are you doing? | ||
| Oh, you're starving. | ||
| A nuclear bomb's coming. | ||
| Oh, you're worried about one government? | ||
| You're worried about law enforcement? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Guess what? | ||
| You've got two governments to worry about. | ||
| Now it's everybody. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Oh, also, and the New World Order. | ||
| And the European government is trying to hire Africans to kill your entire town. | ||
| Yep, and also they're working with the spider leadership and the raptors. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| All run by the literal devil. | ||
| Does the devil want to destroy aliens? | ||
| Alex hasn't weighed in on that, man. | ||
| He doesn't get into UFO stuff. | ||
| I just want to know. | ||
| I'm just adding that in there. | ||
| Okay, okay. | ||
| So, Alex, it's another call, and this guy makes an interesting point, and that is that China isn't communist. | ||
| There is that. | ||
| Which is an interesting problem for Alex, because... | ||
| He constantly calls them the Tricoms. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| And yells about communist China. | ||
| Yeah, there's a problem. | ||
| Uh-oh. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I read China's not a communist country, nor at all a socialist country, but a primitive, crony, capitalist country economically and a totalitarian dictatorship politically. | |
| Now that's it. | ||
| China is a giant slave colony of the globalists. | ||
| We used to leverage out the whole planet, let them economically through economic warfare take over. | ||
| I appreciate your call. | ||
| All right, here's what's going to happen. | ||
| Oh, we're not going to... | ||
| One more 11-minute segment. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| We're not going to bother with that. | ||
| We're not going to engage... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| Crony capitalism and totalitarian government, which we absolutely have nothing resembling here. | ||
| I'm going to rephrase this in a way that works for me, which is it's a testing ground for the globalists. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And then we'll move on, and I won't have to deal with... | ||
| I'm full of shit. | ||
| He might as well just, like, neener, neener, neener, I'm gonna call him communist tomorrow. | ||
| Like, that might as well have been his response. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So he gets another call, and this guy has a story from a year ago that blows Alex's mind because it helps him demonize Muslims. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Locally in Knoxville, a year ago, April 8th, we had a stabbing. | |
| You can find it on the Internet. | ||
| Three pilot, that's a gas station, three pilot employees killed in stabbing attack at Knoxville I-40 truck stop. | ||
| And, of course, it got no coverage because it was a knife. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, and yes, and then they had an article on the front page of the local newspaper, a rag, the Knoxville News Sentinel, under the leadership of the editor, Joel Christopher. | |
| I wouldn't wipe my rear end with it. | ||
| They gave a... | ||
| You did read it, though. | ||
|
unidentified
|
...coverage to the mother of the stabbing stabber, and she said that it was not possible that he could have done what he did. | |
| So why are we not hearing about it? | ||
| What is the racial makeup? | ||
|
unidentified
|
He was of Middle Eastern descent. | |
| Bingo! | ||
| Yeah, and if a Muslim does it, well, who else wants to stab three women? | ||
| I mean, 90% of the time it's going to be a Muslim. | ||
| Let's just say it. | ||
| I'm not against all Muslims, but give me a break, man. | ||
| They got a thing about killing women. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| That's wild. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| That's really wild. | ||
| In Altadena, California last week, two people were fatally stabbed on a Zoom call, and I've not heard Alex bring that story up at all. | ||
| There's a news story out of Michigan where a 14-year-old girl spent months planning to stab her friend in the woods because she, quote, wanted to see someone die. | ||
| We could do this all day, but the point doesn't matter. | ||
| Stories are props for Alex, and this is a prop for him to demonize and foment hatred towards Muslims. | ||
| I believe this caller is also conflating things. | ||
| The claims that I believe were in those articles, they weren't that the guy, he couldn't have been the person at the stabbing. | ||
| They were that he couldn't have been involved in a previous stabbing in a town called Millington that initially people thought might have been connected because he definitely wasn't in that other town. | ||
| And I think that he's just conflating things about the reporting being like, it couldn't have been him. | ||
| Because why worry about details like that, Dan? | ||
| You've got a group of people to smear and hate. | ||
| For the rest of your life. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Cool. | ||
| So Alex is like, this is exciting. | ||
| A year-old story about a stabbing at a gas station. | ||
| Hooray! | ||
| Let's talk about this forever. | ||
| And the media covered it up by putting it in the front page of the local newspaper. | ||
| And covered it up by, like, there's a bunch of stories you can find about it if you want. | ||
| Anyway, they decided to talk about it for quite a while. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Alex, they went on to have follow-up articles on the front page of the local newspaper rag, and they said that... | |
| The people who stopped him, who killed him, and stopped him from killing people were investigated and cleared of any wrongdoing. | ||
| Yeah, they had an article at Yale saying, should I be arrested for being at Yale? | ||
| Wow, I'm glad you called in and know about this. | ||
| We're pulling the articles up now. | ||
| to him. | ||
| Islamic stabs and kills three women because he hates, you know, she's not free. | ||
| And then the media calls him a victim. | ||
| Holy mackerel. | ||
| Bill, I got a jump, but I'm glad you called. | ||
| You can see here how Alex takes little pieces of inaccurate information that a caller has passed along to him, and then he writes his own headlines about them. | ||
| He's decided, based on literally nothing, that this person who stabbed people at a pilot station was motivated by his religious beliefs, and because he was so mad about women being free because he's a Muslim. | ||
| This is all completely made up and based on nothing other than Alex's intense hatred towards people he sees as different from himself. | ||
| Also, this caller is once again fucking up details. | ||
| The articles in the paper after the stabbing incident were about whether or not the police were justified in using deadly force against the stabber. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Whatever. | ||
| Fucking assholes. | ||
| I'm noticing the length of time we're spending on this call versus the one that was like, the Chinese are a crony capitalist country. | ||
| Let's move on. | ||
| It does seem like he moved on from that awful quick. | ||
| Oh, wait, you got a story about someone who you think is a Muslim stabbing somebody? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, considering... | |
| A year ago, this is exciting. | ||
| Considering discovering that information about China, seeing as how China is his main boogeyman, really, that could shake his entire worldview, so he should really spend more time thinking on that, as opposed to this one, which confirms his biases. | ||
| Also, I found a C-SPAN symposium that Alex did about 9-11 conspiracy. | ||
| In 2006. | ||
| And one of his arguments that he makes is that somehow the globalists are working against China. | ||
| So in 2006 they were against each other. | ||
| Completely different cosmology of evil at that time. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Gotcha. | |
| So, we're done with the 23rd here, and a lot of the show seems to be really intensely anti-immigrant. | ||
| It's disgustingly anti-Muslim and boring, just sort of paint-by-numbers nonsense of Alex's bullshit. | ||
| And then, you know, the show's just disgusting on the 24th. | ||
| Some, like, weird pedophile stuff. | ||
| Jesus. | ||
| It's all about hurting your children. | ||
| And as soon as you figure that out, these are demonic monsters, the sooner we beat them. | ||
| They are a cult. | ||
| Most of them are pedophiles. | ||
| Mid-level Democrats and up are pedophiles. | ||
| Remember that. | ||
| You don't even get in the club unless you rape children. | ||
| So Alex is above the political divide. | ||
| Totally. | ||
| You know, the left-right paradigm is all an allusion to this guy. | ||
| Mm-hmm. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But all mid-level Democrats and above. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| What is a mid-level Democrat? | ||
| I was wondering the exact same thing. | ||
| What's the cutoff point for mid-level? | ||
| It's got to be any elected official, right? | ||
| I mean, I don't know. | ||
| Would you call a state rep mid-level? | ||
| Or like as an alderman in Chicago mid-level? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mayor? | |
| Mayor? | ||
| Small town mayor. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Small town... | |
| Sheriff. | ||
| Constitutional sheriff. | ||
| No, those are high-level patriots. | ||
| What about democratic constitutional... | ||
| I don't even know if that exists, yeah. | ||
| Yeah, I just find this unacceptable and stupid, and I don't have time for it. | ||
| No. | ||
| So, we get to an interesting story. | ||
| And this is a story about, allegedly, Black Lives Matter kidnapped 100 people. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That just... | |
| Okay. | ||
| You didn't hear about this? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| You didn't hear about this this week? | ||
| Hold on one second. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Black Lives Matter as a whole. | ||
| Nah, just some people in Rochester. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| A group in Rochester, Black Lives Matter, kidnapped a bunch of people inside a grocery store. | ||
| A hundred people. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And Soros is apparently paying them to do this. | ||
| That sounds true. | ||
| It's about keeping us shut down, intimidating us. | ||
| You ask, why would somebody do something this over the top and this crazy? | ||
| They do it because they've been told by Soros to go do it. | ||
| They're paid to do it. | ||
| And they're seeing how far they can push us. | ||
| And guess what? | ||
| We keep putting up with it so it's going to get worse. | ||
| The article's up on Infowars.com and Newswars.com. | ||
| It's also from GatewayPundit.com. | ||
| BLM Mob traps 100 customers inside grocery store. | ||
| We're shutting stuff down. | ||
| S down. | ||
| S-H. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| Down. | ||
| And they kept him in there for a long time. | ||
| According to a reporter for WROC who's on the scene, the entire framing of the story is completely fake and a racist lie being perpetuated by right-wing media to a Black Lives Matter. | ||
| That does sound more likely. | ||
| Kayla Green, who was there, said, quote, Wegmans closed doors and customers were kept inside temporarily, but were let out soon after. | ||
| Yeah, I was gonna say, every one of these types of protests I've been to have been... | ||
| Sometimes overly incredibly kind. | ||
| Protesters were having a memorial demonstration on the anniversary of the day that Rochester police arrested Daniel Prude, which ultimately led to his death. | ||
| But instead of discussing any of that reality, Alex just says that Soros is paying to agitate the goodly white people of the country to make them feel bad and stay inside a grocery store or something. | ||
| It's all nonsense. | ||
| It is kind of really a good example of that kind of going, you know, that propaganda method of going at your enemy's strength instead of their weakness. | ||
| You know, like when he goes after like, why would somebody? | ||
| somebody do something so over the top and ridiculous because they wouldn't. | ||
| This is too over the top and ridiculous. | ||
| Aha. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I will just cut past all of that by saying Soros. | |
| Done. | ||
| Now, I will say that this next clip worried me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Uh-huh. | |
| Because it's even more over the top. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Uh-huh. | |
| And it also made me think... | ||
| Black Lives Matter climbed Mount Everest and blew it up! | ||
| No, he starts acting like they committed criminal kidnapping. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Now, let me show you under federal and state law. | ||
| This is Title V, Offense Against the Person, Chapter 20. Kidnapping, unlawful restraint, and smuggling of persons. | ||
| And that's what O.J. Simpson went to jail for over a decade for. | ||
| And these were folks he found out were counterfeiting his stuff, and he was pissed at them. | ||
| I might say what he was right, but I kind of get it. | ||
| Are you defending O.J.? | ||
| Are we defending O.J. now? | ||
| It makes me worried he's going to O.J. me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Is that a thing? | |
| Are we defending O.J.? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| All right. | ||
| So anyway, this Black Lives Matter protest in Rochester kidnapped and wrongly arrested these people. | ||
| And hey, man, if Alex was there, he probably would have started swinging. | ||
| We're in an occupied government. | ||
| Aren't laws meaningless now? | ||
| That was a week ago. | ||
| That was a week ago. | ||
| Sorry about that. | ||
| It was in service of a completely different conversation. | ||
| Sorry, I forgot. | ||
| And it felt really good at the time. | ||
| I forgot that laws are still real. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| If Alex was there, he would have started swinging on people, man. | ||
| Just started knocking people out left and right. | ||
| And then, then, the media, the media would have called it a race war. | ||
| So they go to a grocery store. | ||
| A Wegmans grocery store and trapped an estimated 100 people in. | ||
| Some reports are this went on for at least an hour. | ||
| You know, what do you got to go home to your kids? | ||
| What was that? | ||
| An hour? | ||
| I'm sorry, and I've got to shoot my mouth off. | ||
| But if a couple hundred people came and blocked me inside a grocery store and I had to go somewhere, I can't help it. | ||
| I'm going to get violent. | ||
| And then it's going to be called a race war. | ||
| No, if some white people block me in a grocery store, I'm going to start kicking their ass. | ||
| Brown people? | ||
| I don't give a damn. | ||
| At a certain point, folks, this is out of control. | ||
| And if we put up with this, we'll put up with anything. | ||
| See, this is what I'm saying. | ||
| I'm not worried about them starting a guerrilla warfare campaign because we're at the level of, like... | ||
| I'm not worried about Mark Wahlberg actually stopping 9-11. | ||
| Do you understand? | ||
| Like, you blustery asshole. | ||
| I would punch them. | ||
| Like, shut the fuck up. | ||
| Yeah, and this formulation, too, of like, because we keep putting up with it. | ||
| So the solution is to stop putting up with... | ||
| Protest. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Right? | ||
| I mean, like, obviously, that's the message that would be being sent. | ||
| We stamp out any and all protests. | ||
| We destroy the First Amendment. | ||
| Particularly ones that are central to, you know, non-straight, white, Christian, male-related issues. | ||
| Stamp out all those protests because they're Soros instigated. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| Yeah, I don't know. | ||
| It doesn't seem great. | ||
| They do understand. | ||
| These people do understand. | ||
| Actually, never mind. | ||
| They don't. | ||
| I should end every... | ||
| They do understand. | ||
| Actually, I'm wrong. | ||
| Well, I think the only explanation I could come up with to sort of maintain the dignity of Alex's listeners is they have to just think he's... | ||
| Telling the truth. | ||
| I can't imagine listening to this having a kernel of skepticism and maintaining any illusion that he knows what he's talking about. | ||
| Dan, he brought it up. | ||
| If you covered this story... | ||
| And you went and found the pictures of it. | ||
| You found the explanation for what was going on at this Wegmans and how Alex is, for some reason, imagining people would call it a race war if he started fighting his way out of the store. | ||
| You'd have to just be like, okay, this is about you, man. | ||
| This isn't about reality. | ||
| This isn't about the story. | ||
| You're projecting everything. | ||
| All of those paper articles are written directly by Soros. | ||
| Did you know that 98% of all newspaper articles in the mainstream media... | ||
| We're written directly by George Soros. | ||
| Yep, I read that in one of the 2% that isn't. | ||
| So, I don't think that this is true. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| But this is being praised on Facebook and Twitter as a good thing. | ||
| They just go randomly to a grocery store, and there's black people, white people, you name it, inside, and block everybody in and start screaming at people. | ||
| And they surrounded the whole building and the emergency exits and wouldn't let people out. | ||
| And look, I'm a man, so I'm still pretty tough at 47. I'd still be intimidated and angry by this. | ||
| Imagine being a woman. | ||
| Imagine being an old person. | ||
| Imagine being some 80-year-old woman on her walker trying to get some food. | ||
| This is thug behavior, it's criminal, and it's disgusting. | ||
| And the police need to stop kissing the ass of these type of globalist thugs and need to start arresting them for racketeering. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| Anyway, I'm not sure there's enough protesters there to surround a building. | ||
| Wegmans, they're not usually small stores. | ||
| They're usually fairly big. | ||
| And I've seen a bunch of pictures of the gathering. | ||
| It was not a giant mob. | ||
| Also, in reality, Wegmans closed the door to their store out of fear of the protesters. | ||
| So any decisions that Alex wants to complain about should be directed to Wegmans Customer Corporate Office, or whatever the fuck. | ||
| You would think. | ||
| The reason the protesters chose this location for their protest is that Wegmans uses uniformed Rochester police officers for security, and their protest was in part calling for the firing of the officers who were involved in the Daniel Prude case. | ||
| It all makes total sense. | ||
| It's not random. | ||
| The reason they showed up there was not random, and... | ||
| And Alex is going to pretend that it's random in a very racist way. | ||
| And let's say what it is. | ||
| This is the equivalent of KKK. | ||
| This is a bunch of black people and white people. | ||
| And I guess it looks like there's some brown people there that are literally angry randomly at random people at a grocery store. | ||
| And you see in the video, there's like an hour of it. | ||
| The old lady in the walker looks like she's about to have a heart attack. | ||
| And then she tries to get out the back and they yell at her. | ||
| So, again, and this video is the beginning of it. | ||
| Hundreds of people surrounded the grocery store, all these big fat welfare queens, and again, nothing against you if you're fat, but man, all these people bitching about, this country sucks! | ||
| You weigh like 400 pounds, man! | ||
| You wouldn't last 10 minutes in Africa. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Whoa! | |
| Whoa, whoa, whoa. | ||
| Weird. | ||
| Wild. | ||
| Be a little too clear, Alex. | ||
| That's tough to back away from. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's tough to back away from. | ||
| That's outrageous. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| Whenever Alex is like, I'm not racist, show me the clip. | ||
| Well. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Well, there's one of them. | ||
| Yep! | ||
| One of many just on this episode, you flagrant racist. | ||
| Yeah, that's pretty much... | ||
| That's too explicit. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's too explicit. | ||
| Yeah, it's pretty embarrassing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So yeah, I don't know. | ||
| The story's dumb. | ||
| Spends quite a bit of time on this Wegmans grocery store story. | ||
| And a lot of time talking about how Infowars may be gone soon. | ||
| There's no protest about racial justice that's ever random. | ||
| No. | ||
| And not even that, but it's a daily occurrence. | ||
| And there's none that Alex will ever deem acceptable. | ||
| Yeah, of course not. | ||
| There's no version of it that Alex would ever see as like, oh, this is a productive conversation. | ||
| This is something that's bringing attention to an important... | ||
| Like, you wouldn't. | ||
| It doesn't exist. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It would always be some kind of a Soros agitation in order to create division in society and make white people feel bad. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Totally. | |
| And that's what I was kind of talking about at the beginning of this episode, where everything is just kind of boring. | ||
| These are just Alex Jones tricks that he's doing. | ||
| Yeah, it's retreads. | ||
| Yeah, a little bit. | ||
| It's just racism on autopilot, which is fucking boggling. | ||
| Yeah, I was a little bit disappointed. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I shouldn't expect anything. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| But Infowars might be gone soon, man. | ||
| That's why we gotta cherish this while we have it. | ||
| Yeah, this is just like, these people cannot be at all introspective whatsoever if you can have racism on autopilot this explicit, right? | ||
| Like, at no point in time does he ever, like, sit down and go, did what I say... | ||
| Come off as super racist. | ||
| Well, it's interesting to me to imagine a listener who's hearing particularly that last clip, and he's talking about these welfare queens of 400 pounds. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And hearing that, it would be like, ooh. | ||
| That's weird. | ||
| But maybe you're somebody who's inundated with shitty right-wing media, and that's just like, hey, that's where we live. | ||
| Then being like, why did you say you wouldn't last a day in Africa? | ||
| That's a weird one. | ||
| Why was that where you were? | ||
| Adding all of that is just strange. | ||
| I can't imagine being a listener and not being like, oh, I get what he's saying. | ||
| He hates black people. | ||
| But I mean, if you were a Reagan voter, you can't be mad about welfare queen at this point. | ||
| I'm not sure Alex loves Reagan. | ||
| Yeah, well, he loves using Reagan's racist talking points. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Anyway, InfoWars may be gone soon. | ||
| We've been hearing this for quite a while. | ||
| Again! | ||
| And I grow weary of it. | ||
| I'm running out of gas. | ||
| Now, I probably wouldn't even play this, because he says stuff about him being gone all the time. | ||
| Sure, sure, sure. | ||
| Except, he makes a squid metaphor. | ||
| That maybe goes too long. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And I find it interesting. | ||
| I like a good squid metaphor. | ||
| I'm not going to spend time getting into all the things they do to us. | ||
| I'm not going to say the things that they're doing that have an effect, the things that deflect, the things that don't have an effect, because I'm not going to give the enemy any idea of where to keep attacking. | ||
| But let me just tell you this. | ||
| Do not sit there and expect InfoWars to be here forever. | ||
| I've had a lot of classy family that had cancer and was dying, and you just hear that that member of the family's dead. | ||
| They were at work one week, totally nice, got their affairs in order. | ||
| So manly, so tough, so feminine, so tough that they just die and make no big deal about it and donate their bodies to science and stuff like that. | ||
| I'm not as stoic as some of my ancestors. | ||
| I'd like to point out that I'm really glad that Alex did make that caveat that that's not me. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I'm not that person who's stoic. | ||
| I'm going to go down whining. | ||
| I'm going to... | ||
| Renounce God? | ||
| I'm going to sell my soul to Satan for one single longer second than I can handle it. | ||
| You're going to see me in a pink sweater. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| I will do anything. | ||
| And I don't have cancer. | ||
| But America has cancer, and this operation has a giant globalist squid attached to us gnawing on our face. | ||
| And I just let it sit there and gnaw, and I know how far it can go until it gets to our arteries. | ||
| I'm laying eggs real fast escape pods, too. | ||
| We'll just see how they do getting caught in the whole underwater jet stream here and what they'll grow into and what they'll do. | ||
| And I also need to grow a bunch of eggs, to use that analogy, if I'm a fish with a big thing attached to me eating me. | ||
| So I need energy to be able to make sure that all those things that we're ensuring in the future continue on because that's the main mission. | ||
| And I've looked at all the different possible future scenarios and... | ||
| The globalists are so off the chart and so crazy now. | ||
| There's a good chance that they'll go ahead and just kill me. | ||
| At a certain level, I kind of look forward to that because in the great burden, atmospheres of pressure that I have to carry out this mission will be gone. | ||
| Didn't he just say when he got back from his last weird vacation to Florida that all the weight had been lifted from him and he'd completed his mission? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Now he's like, oh, I wish I was dead so all this pressure would be off me. | |
| I had a good week where the burden wasn't there and now it's back and I really wish the globalists would just fucking kill me. | ||
| Certainly had nothing to do with going to Connecticut. | ||
| Yep, yep. | ||
| Nothing in Connecticut made me feel like I want to die and that InfoWars won't be around forever. | ||
| Nothing in Connecticut would ever give me the impression that InfoWars may be going out of business. | ||
| I have to think that the metaphor here, the squid, I mean it's a clunky metaphor, but the squid that's attached to InfoWars is the Sandy Hook lawsuit. | ||
| He knows how far they can nibble before it hits the carotid. | ||
| That would be once his finances become public or they get discovery on a lot of this stuff. | ||
| People realize what kind of shit He's really into. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Then he fell apart with the I'm laying eggs. | ||
| Because that could either be like I'm trying to give money to other organizations or I'm hiding money in my dad's business. | ||
| Yeah, that would make the most sense. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| But anyway, he's got some more. | ||
| I love life. | ||
| I'll never commit suicide. | ||
| If I die, it wasn't suicide. | ||
| I'm just saying I literally have no more fear. | ||
| I've been through this so long. | ||
| I've done so much that I don't fear death. | ||
| I don't fear anything. | ||
| I may lose my whole family. | ||
| I may lose my children. | ||
| I mean, hell, the whole world's about to go. | ||
| I mean, at this point, all that matters is our souls. | ||
| But you've got from me a total commitment. | ||
| As strong as I can be, I will fight. | ||
| Does that mean I'm going to go off the rails and act crazy? | ||
| Yeah, because I'm burnout, folks. | ||
| I'm fried. | ||
| When you fight evil like this, at a level like this, this long, You don't just care about them killing you. | ||
| You start getting to the point where there's no inhibition anymore. | ||
| Does that make sense? | ||
| No. | ||
| But I give you my word that I will be as focused and hardcore as I can until the very end, but I need financial support. | ||
| We know. | ||
| Yeah, it's weird. | ||
| I would pray that I would have all of my support dry up if I ever get to the point where I speak that maudlin. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| If I ever get that, like, you know, just doing this at the level that I've done it, I'm not afraid to die. | ||
| Dan, Dan, I won't let you go out like that. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Come on, buddy. | ||
| I will very much need you to check me if I ever start even getting close to that level of blowhardery. | ||
| We're gonna get on a boat. | ||
| I'll take care of you, Godfather style. | ||
| It'll be great. | ||
| This is embarrassing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, that's not good. | ||
| So in a way, there's squids out. | ||
| Squids? | ||
| I believe he's a fish in the metaphor. | ||
| I think that's how far I've gotten with the metaphor. | ||
| I think he's a fish being eaten by a squid. | ||
| I think he did say that. | ||
| I think he said fish. | ||
| Because once he started to say that he was putting out eggs, he realized he had to be something that laid eggs. | ||
| Yeah, the moment he said eggs, I think he thought he was the squid for a second. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And then... | ||
| This is the problem with Alex and protracted metaphors. | ||
| Yeah, he's not good at metaphors. | ||
| No, it's a dicey game. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So, Alex gets some bad news here on the 24th, and that is that the Ninth Circuit has made a ruling. | ||
| That's not good. | ||
| This is a big deal on the Ninth Circuit. | ||
| We'll be tracking that very, very closely. | ||
| That's just now breaking, overturning, concealed carry, period. | ||
| And this is just, you're like, oh, the Supreme Court will overturn that. | ||
| Don't hold your breaths, folks, because we don't put pressure on them. | ||
| They don't fear the American people's political action. | ||
| We own them! | ||
| They fear the mainstream media. | ||
| They fear the stacking of the court. | ||
| Because nobody calls the bluff of the left. | ||
| And so the left is buffaloing us. | ||
| Stampeding us. | ||
| And it's only going to get more crazy. | ||
| Go after him for Fast and Furious. | ||
| Get on the offense. | ||
| Go after him for the child smuggling across the border. | ||
| Do like Ted Cruz does. | ||
| But almost everybody else sits there. | ||
| Don't do like Ted Cruz does. | ||
| Ted Cruz is a jerk. | ||
| Doesn't matter. | ||
| He's got guts. | ||
| Guts is enough, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Don't forget, we got free shipping on the mega blowout sale. | ||
| Oh, boy. | ||
| Oh, boy. | ||
| That was a clunky one. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Yeah, so go after them for Fast and Furious. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, that'll do it. | ||
| You got them. | ||
| Man, it's interesting how he pretends that they didn't have hearings on that. | ||
| Nobody ever calls the left's bluff, you know? | ||
| Like, nobody's ever like, we refuse to sit a Supreme Court justice until... | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| Nobody's ever been like, oh, we gotta put pressure on the Supreme Court by removing and replacing all of the... | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Cool. | |
| Cool, guys. | ||
| Also, this Ninth Court ruling, it has said... | ||
| If I recall correctly, let me pull up the exact wording of it. | ||
| Quote, there is no right to carry arms openly in public, nor is any such right within the scope of the Second Amendment. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's what the U.S. Court Judge Jay Bybee said. | ||
| I would be hard-pressed to find the wording within the Second Amendment that's like, yeah, and carry them in the Wagners. | ||
| No, like, that is, you know, something that I would think that Alex would be like... | ||
| It's over. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| That's the slippery slope. | ||
| Right, and he's already said the Supreme Court isn't going to defend this. | ||
| They're not going to help us at all. | ||
| Shouldn't this be at the point where now, like his, you know, Viet Cong thing from earlier? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| There aren't any laws anymore anyways, Dan. | ||
| The entire government is unconstitutional. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mm-hmm. | |
| All right. | ||
| What are we going to do? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Let's take their guns away. | ||
| He doesn't really talk about this story as much as you would think, based on the fact that it should be... | ||
| The most important story that's ever happened. | ||
| He should go apoplectic. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| He should lose his mind. | ||
| The MIAC report came out and he made such a stink about it for so long. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So he talks to some weirdo who's got like a YouTube show for an hour about like trying to make people afraid of... | ||
| Stuff at the border. | ||
| And I didn't care. | ||
| Because I got a little bit deeper into this next interview. | ||
| So I thought it was different and a little bit more interesting. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And so what we have here is that Jim Hoft from Gateway Pundit, his brother, whose name I refuse to learn, is on. | ||
| Jim Hoft's brother. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| That is his name. | ||
| To me it is. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He's on because he's got some news about COVID. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| So I read the article and a lot of new information that just confirmed a lot of the older information. | ||
| It's a breaking exclusive, thegatewaypundit.com, location of origin of COVID-19 pandemic, identified between two of China's biological warfare facilities in Wuhan. | ||
| So, this is apparently a situation where Jim Hoff's brothers learned that there was a cluster of cases early of COVID-19 in an area that's geographically between the Wuhan Institute of Virology and another lab in Wuhan, and thus... | ||
| Put those pieces together, man. | ||
| Wait, it was in between the two? | ||
| Yeah, it was geographically in between the two. | ||
| Like, on the street? | ||
| Yeah, it was on the street. | ||
| It was in a neighborhood. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| See, what happened was, obviously, people were going back and forth between those labs. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| And they were coughing on people. | ||
| Right. | ||
| He's proved it. | ||
| So the place they stopped for gas is where the COVID outbreak started. | ||
| He's solved this case. | ||
| I gotta say, I gotta give it up to Jim Hoff's brother. | ||
| Jim Hoff's brother really Agatha Christie'd this one to completion. | ||
| I read the article on Gateway Pondit. | ||
| Initially, I was just gonna dismiss this and be like, oh, fuck yourself, Jim Hoff's brother. | ||
| But there's actually a really interesting piece in here that... | ||
| Just demonstrates how these people do their dirty work. | ||
| Well, congratulations, Jim Hoff's brother! | ||
| That area that's really, really dark, where it signifies the most cases, is between a couple biological warfare facilities. | ||
| Editorializing there a little bit. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| He's describing a map where there is shaded clusters of where there were early instances of COVID. | ||
|
unidentified
|
One is the entity that we've talked about for a long time. | |
| We started reporting on this at Wuhan Institute of Virology back in April last year, where it looked like, yeah, this is what's going on. | ||
| Something was released from there. | ||
| And then near that is another entity that's labeled the Biological Preparations Institute, BPI. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's the yellow square on that map. | |
| Between these two facilities is where they're saying the initial cases, the large number of initial cases were first identified. | ||
| How far away? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I guess more evidence that this thing wasn't just something that was natural that occurred in the food market, that red dot. | |
| No, the large number of cases comes between the black star there and the yellow box. | ||
| So I've got some issues with this map. | ||
| Actually, I found this very fascinating. | ||
| Is it the way that he's got a black box, a yellow square, and a red dot? | ||
| No, I mean, like, you gotta have whatever as markers on a map, but I'm fine with that. | ||
| My first issue is that there are four additional clusters of early cases that are nowhere near either lab, and at least ten other reported infectors also outside the area that Jim Hoft's brother is focusing on. | ||
| In theory, it would be just as easy to argue that someone got infected in one of those other clusters and brought the condition back to the neighborhood that Hoft is focusing on from the information that he's providing. | ||
| There's literally no way... | ||
| That he could prove otherwise. | ||
| You know, you bring in multiple points of fact that would undermine his argument, but on the other hand, have you considered, don't worry about it? | ||
| No. | ||
| I have not considered that. | ||
| So the second major issue I have here is that the map is taken from a study in the International Journal of Geoinformation, and it has to do with geographic data from a medical help-seeking app called Weibo. | ||
| The data isn't meant to be used in the way that Jim's brother is using it. | ||
| It's misused data. | ||
| Only on one app. | ||
| Yeah, it's tracking the people who reached out for help through this app. | ||
| Sure, sure, sure, sure. | ||
| Which I think there's value to, obviously, as data points, but it's not for this. | ||
| The third problem is that the map they're publishing on Gateway Pundit isn't the map from that journal article, or at least it isn't the only one. | ||
| The map that's closest to theirs is the one that depicts Weibo help seekers prior to January 18th, 2020. | ||
| Gateway Pundit doesn't include the subsequent maps depicting Weibo seekers from January 19th to 20th, which shows the distribution going way towards the areas nowhere near the labs that they're focusing on, nor do they even bring up the map from January 21st to 22nd, which shows more of the same, shifting away from that hotspot that he was decided to cherry-pick data. | ||
| And just make his argument with. | ||
| Okay, so then in this case, here's what I've got for you. | ||
| Okay, so some dudes shuffling dangerous COVID back from lab to lab. | ||
| They stop at a gas station, accidentally drop a vial, right? | ||
| It explodes. | ||
| That causes problems. | ||
| But that's a small outbreak. | ||
| It's just one vial. | ||
| So then they go to the other places, and that's where the big vials are tossed out of the car. | ||
| It's an interesting plot for a book or something, but I don't think this supports it. | ||
| I've written it down. | ||
| So my final problem is that according to Google Maps, Jim Hoff's brother has mislabeled the map he published. | ||
| It appears that that yellow square that he's talking about to signify the Biological Preparations Institute? | ||
| Sure. | ||
| That's actually the Biological Preparations Institute Marketing Center. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ha ha ha ha! | |
| Ha ha ha ha! | ||
| Ha ha ha ha ha! | ||
| Yeah, naturally. | ||
| The actual Wuhan Biological Preparations Institute is about 25 kilometers south of where they have it marked on the map. | ||
| And if you actually use the correct location, there are no clusters right near it. | ||
| I swear to God. | ||
| I swear to God. | ||
| I want to throw baseballs at these people. | ||
| It's amazing. | ||
| Really hard. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And, you know, it took a little while of looking at the map and asking myself questions about, like, what is this entity exactly? | ||
| Like, is this what they're saying it is? | ||
| And, you know, it took a little while to unravel, but this is, like, pretty basic stuff that they didn't even consider, or they did consider and decided to lie about in service of making their argument. | ||
| This is that one situation. | ||
| What's the name of those places where there's the Institute and the... | ||
| University or whatever, and they keep mixing them up. | ||
| The Tavistock Institute? | ||
| Yes, the Tavistock Institute. | ||
| Yeah, it's the same thing where they just keep mixing up the dumb stuff and they're like, nobody's ever going to follow up on this except for Dan. | ||
| But I also, I would fully think... | ||
| That it's a very good chance that they just didn't even check. | ||
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
| They don't even bother. | ||
| Why would they? | ||
| Again, no one's going to follow up on this except Dan. | ||
| It's so sloppy and embarrassing that this is like Gateway Pundit's editorial. | ||
| That's what's good enough to be put out as an exclusive. | ||
| And then come on Alex's show and ramble about it. | ||
| Like, even problems that I was able to find with the way they were using that map from the journal itself to what they were doing. | ||
| Even if they did have the right location, there were problems. | ||
| And the fact that that is a different location than they're pretending it is makes it just comical. | ||
| It's a farce. | ||
| That's stupid. | ||
| Yeah, so anyway, at that point I checked out. | ||
| You're like the Sigma-5 of propaganda. | ||
| Like, you know how Sigma-5 scientists are like, there's a one in a million chance that we're not 100% correct on this. | ||
| You know, Sigma-3 is like one in a thousand or whatever. | ||
| There's a point in propaganda where it's like, well... | ||
| Only Dan's going to care about this, so we're fine. | ||
| And he might not if he doesn't accidentally get curious about it. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| If we fly this one by Dan, we're golden. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| We can just make this boring enough. | ||
| I know. | ||
| Have Jim Hoff's brother talk about it. | ||
| Yeah, Sigma-4 is Dan and some other people. | ||
| Sigma-3 is Dan and, like, the New York Times. | ||
| I don't know, man. | ||
| I unfortunately spent a little bit of time looking at that, and it kind of burned me out a tiny bit. | ||
| Between the, like, sort of... | ||
| Just very constant and boring racism and immigrant bashing. | ||
| And then, you know, that, I was just like, I'm out. | ||
| I'm out. | ||
| And unfortunately, that made me miss Roger Stone. | ||
| He showed up in the fourth hour of the show. | ||
| I don't usually watch the fourth hour. | ||
| I completely missed it. | ||
| Maybe we'll get it next week. | ||
| Who knows? | ||
| Probably not. | ||
| Roger Stone's boring. | ||
| He sucks. | ||
| He's boring now. | ||
| He doesn't do anything. | ||
| I think ever since he got that pardon, he's just not the same. | ||
| Just not the same, man. | ||
| Well, I mean, you know, I get it. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Like, you've got all the adrenaline of like, am I gonna go to jail? | ||
| Am I gonna go to jail? | ||
| And then you get a pardon and you're like, well, now what do I do? | ||
| It feels like the definition of once bitten, twice shy. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| I'm not gonna fuck around with needing a pardon again because I don't got a pardon coming for the second one. | ||
| I will try and get attention to myself as best I can and maybe do some publicity stunt things. | ||
| I need some money from people. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'll be a shithead. | |
| That'll be fine. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| I'll have a good bone mow from time to time. | ||
| Sure. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I'll yell at Larry Clayman if I get a chance. | ||
| Not hard. | ||
| Not hard to do. | ||
| So yeah, I don't know. | ||
| I found this stretch... | ||
| When I said at the beginning of the show, I was like, is there even value in talking about it? | ||
| Part of the reason is because I don't think a lot of it brings much new to the table. | ||
| True. | ||
| I think with Jim Hoff's brother and talking about some of the specific instances of things he brings up, maybe there's a little bit. | ||
| But his coverage of... | ||
| For instance, the shooting is all in service of anti-Muslim rhetoric. | ||
| It's all in service of anti-immigrant. | ||
| There's nothing there that you don't see in the aftermath of so many other tragic events if you look at Alex's coverage. | ||
| And it kind of... | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It makes me sad that you can just still get away with the same tricks. | ||
| Yeah, it is one of those things where sometimes we do an episode that I want in court as like, this isn't a First Amendment issue. | ||
| This is malice. | ||
| We can prove malice. | ||
| I think about a thousand hours of knowledge fight at this point. | ||
| So strap in. | ||
| But you'll get there and we'll get the conviction on this one. | ||
| We'll get it! | ||
| Anyway, Jordan, we'll be back. | ||
| Indeed we will, Dan. | ||
| But until then, we have a website. | ||
| We have a website. | ||
| It's KnowledgeFight.com. | ||
| Yes, we're also on Twitter. | ||
| We are on Twitter. | ||
| It's at KnowledgeFight and I go to bed Jordan. | ||
| We are also on Facebook. | ||
| We are on Facebook. | ||
| And if you could, please find a local charity or bail fund in your area to help out people doing God's work still. | ||
| Yep, we'll be back. | ||
| But until then, I'm Neo, I'm Leo, I'm DZX, Clark, I'm Daryl Rundis. | ||
| I pledge on the altar of God to try to force Alex Jones to eat fake fruit. | ||
| Andy in Kansas, you're on the air. | ||
| Thanks for holding. | ||
