I'm a friend.

KnowledgeFight.
alex jones
KnowledgeFight.com.
I love you.
dan friesen
Hey, everybody!
Welcome back to KnowledgeFight.
I'm Dan.
jordan holmes
I'm Jordan.
dan friesen
We're a couple dudes like to sit around, worship at the altar of Selene, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
Oh, indeed we are.
Dan.
dan friesen
Jordan.
Jordan.
jordan holmes
I have a quick question for you.
dan friesen
What's up?
jordan holmes
What's your bright spot today, buddy?
dan friesen
You go first.
jordan holmes
My bright spot, Dan, is the TV show, new TV show, I Am A Virgo.
It was made by Boots Riley, the guy who made Sorry For Bothering You, Sorry To Bother You.
Fantastic.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Absolutely spectacular.
dan friesen
Boots does good work.
jordan holmes
It really is.
You know me.
I wrote a book that is essentially literalizing as much as possible and blunting it down to as simple a part as possible.
And what's great about this is that it does the same thing and then fantasizes it on top of it.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
So it squeezes the idea of feeling like you're extraordinary and then expands it to being, I'm 13 feet tall.
It's a really, really fascinating way of making very not subtle things.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
It's fantastic.
It's fantastic.
dan friesen
What's it on?
Where can people find this?
jordan holmes
Well, I will say this.
Here's something fun.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
It is one of the most anti-capitalist things I've ever seen made.
unidentified
Right?
jordan holmes
Amazon Prime.
Okay.
dan friesen
That's there.
jordan holmes
So, there's that.
dan friesen
Hey, you gotta make your product.
jordan holmes
What are you gonna do?
dan friesen
There's no ethical consumption.
jordan holmes
There really isn't!
dan friesen
Then what are you gonna do?
jordan holmes
There's nothing you can do!
unidentified
Shit.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I know.
Anyways, how about you?
dan friesen
My bright spot, Jordan, is I guess what you'd call a fairly big announcement.
And that is at the end of September, September 23rd and 24th, there is a little festival, not little, I guess it's a festival conference, QED in Manchester.
jordan holmes
Indeed.
dan friesen
In the UK.
And I was thrilled to be offered a spot speaking at it.
jordan holmes
You were.
dan friesen
So I will be speaking at the QED conference.
jordan holmes
Indeed you will.
dan friesen
In Manchester.
And tickets are available on their website.
I'm not sure of schedule yet.
In terms of what day I'll be speaking or what time slot or anything.
But I'll be giving a talk about Alex Jones in some fashion.
Still working out some of the details of the talk itself.
But I'll be going over.
You'll be coming along as moral support.
jordan holmes
I will be coming along as moral support.
I'll just be there backstage.
I'll be like cheering you on like a stage mom.
dan friesen
Yeah, I was conflicted at first when the invitation came if I wanted you to be on stage Sure.
I'm still...
20% into that idea.
jordan holmes
It would be a little fun if I had a mic in the audience and I just heckled you every now and again.
dan friesen
I don't want heckling, but hype manning maybe?
jordan holmes
What else would I do?
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
Come on, buddy.
dan friesen
Heckle hype.
So yeah, that's pretty exciting.
It's intimidating in some ways.
I've not given a speech at a conference before.
jordan holmes
That's true.
dan friesen
It's a little bit professional for my vibes.
But, yeah, you know, you gotta take opportunities that come and grow.
Grow to meet them.
jordan holmes
This is the part where your co-host, your loving best friend, says something like, you know, Dan, you deserve it.
You know, you've worked hard to get here.
But I'm going to be honest, you don't.
You haven't.
You've done nothing.
You really, you got lucky with all of the stuff you do.
dan friesen
See, you know me well enough to know that that's what I need.
It's way better.
That's like when my house burned down many years back.
There was unfortunately a dog passed away in the fire.
And that night, me and a comedian friend, Timmy, we went to an open mic.
And Timmy got on stage and roasted me about how I killed a dog.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
Instead of showing sympathy.
jordan holmes
Right.
But that's what I need to survive in this moment.
Your sympathy only makes me acknowledge the tragedy of life.
dan friesen
Yeah.
It helped a bit in terms of, like, you know, not pandering and not, like...
Kid glovesing.
jordan holmes
It is like when you're acting differently to a dog, they only know you're acting differently.
They don't know why you're acting differently.
Do you know what I mean?
So when people treat you differently, it means the situation is so unique and different that it makes you uncomfortable.
dan friesen
Yeah, that's probably a large part of it.
So we'll be there and having some fun.
jordan holmes
We will be there.
dan friesen
So come on out.
Get tickets to the fest?
Conference?
Fest?
It's not a fest, because I don't think there's a bunch of bands.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you know, from the descriptions I've heard from people who I know are going to enjoy it and have a great time, probably not going to be comedian-heavy.
Just throwing that out there.
dan friesen
Might be, no, 311 isn't going to be playing.
jordan holmes
Doubtful, doubtful.
dan friesen
So yeah, I...
You know, this is a lot, you know, preparing for this, and then, you know, there's a lot of anxieties that come along.
Certainly there's, I don't have a passport currently, and I need to get that resolved, and I'm in the process of going through the hoops of that.
But, you know, catastrophizing the idea of like, well, instead of looking at it as like, well, there's, you know, steps to take, and we'll get there, we'll make it through.
Instead of that, there's just like the image in my head.
I've had a whole lot.
Rattling around in my bean.
Up in my brain.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you've been underneath a giant pile of shit for quite some time.
dan friesen
Yeah, and I don't know.
I think we talked a bit more about mental health stuff earlier on when we were doing the show.
And I think that that's partially because we had less listeners.
jordan holmes
And we weren't quite as concerned.
dan friesen
See, I was thinking about it.
jordan holmes
It's not concern.
I know what you mean.
It's not concern.
dan friesen
Yeah, I was thinking about it.
I do not mind sharing stuff about struggles and things because I do think it should be destigmatized and I think we should not look at things as weakness or anything.
I came to a point where I was feeling like as our audience grew, because our audience is a very caring group of people and everybody is very nice, I didn't want to impose my...
Mental health issues on other people.
Of course.
You know, like, everyone is so nice if you say you're feeling down or whatever.
unidentified
Sure, sure.
dan friesen
I don't want people to worry about me and such.
jordan holmes
Well, I mean, we spend all of our time talking about a guy who emotionally abuses his audience in much the same fashion that if you don't take care of yourself when you do it, you could be doing, of course.
dan friesen
It's definitely territory I would not want to dabble in.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Yeah, things have been a bit tough, and I want to thank everyone for, you know, I don't know.
jordan holmes
The thankful things that they needed to be thanked for.
dan friesen
Yeah, sure.
jordan holmes
Absolutely.
dan friesen
And, you know, you've been very helpful in picking up some slack, interviewing Ronson.
jordan holmes
See, this is what I need.
This is what I need.
Yeah, now we're talking.
dan friesen
But yeah, so anyway, between like some of that, you know, Some of this down dip mixed with these anxiety pressures and then also switching meds.
It's been a fucking lot.
And also Alex is on vacation-ish again.
jordan holmes
Put a button on that.
dan friesen
I think he went to Florida.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
Because he was interviewing the pastor, Rodney Howard Brown, and I believe he lives in Florida.
And then he was on Valuetainment, the Robert Bette David podcast.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
He was the guy who did the drunk hotel interview with Alex.
jordan holmes
Oh, life is very fragile.
dan friesen
Yes.
And so I believe he's in Fort Lauderdale or somewhere in Florida.
Alex was there, and then he was spotted in Omaha because his wife's family lives in Omaha.
And from what I understand from a court thing, he was out of town because his father-in-law was ill.
Very ill.
But he's been doing some of his show out of like a...
Downgraded studio.
Sure.
And it's just, it doesn't have a lot of charm to it.
It was very hard for me to, you know, in the state you're in where things are kind of chaotic and a mess in your head, it's sometimes hard to work.
And, you know, listening to Alex in a dumb fake studio, it's hard.
It's a struggle.
jordan holmes
I love the way that we talk about this because the idea of like, oh, it's sometimes hard to work.
No, no, no, no.
It's impossible to work.
That we can overcome it is absurd, and we don't always do a great job of it, but that we can do it is the ridiculous part.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
Not that it happens.
dan friesen
Yeah, and, you know, like I was, I think we talked about this a little bit, that the, like, doing of the show, like, sitting here talking to you, this isn't work necessarily in the way that it's, like, really difficult to do, but, like, you know, sitting down and watching him, like...
It is a fake studio.
unidentified
Oh, totally.
dan friesen
It's a fake secondary studio.
And knowing, like, oh, you just went down to Florida to, you know, do all this shit.
Pretending this bankruptcy isn't hanging over your head.
You know, that is a struggle.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
No, I get it.
dan friesen
And so I didn't find a whole lot that charmed me in the present day.
So this has basically just been a long-winded way of saying we're in the past.
jordan holmes
We are in the past.
dan friesen
We're going to 2004.
March 1st.
We're into March.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
All right.
dan friesen
Yeah, pretty exciting.
jordan holmes
Things are moving.
dan friesen
Moving along.
jordan holmes
We have time confirmed.
dan friesen
We have crossed the barrier of March.
And yeah, so March 1st, 2004.
jordan holmes
All right.
dan friesen
It's going to be an interesting little thing.
Alex has one story that he is particularly invested in, and then he gets a call that he probably didn't want to take.
jordan holmes
Uh-oh.
dan friesen
So that will be something we experience and get to enjoy.
But first, let's say hello to some people who are wonks.
jordan holmes
Oh, that's a great idea.
dan friesen
So first, Frederick Altamont Cornwall's Twistleton, 5th Earl of good old Ickenham.
But my pals call me Uncle Ale Watcher.
Thank you so much.
You are now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much!
dan friesen
Thank you.
Next, happy birthday, Layla.
You're a policy wonk.
You are now a policy wonk.
alex jones

dan friesen
Thank you.
Next, Habit.
I'm rapidly approaching your location.
Signed, Marcus.
Thank you so much.
You are now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
Thank you.
Next, hey guys, after you end up winning the no ledge fight, we think you should take on some ledge fight.
If that goes well, we're confident you can even handle an all ledge fight.
Ledges be damned.
Thank you so much.
You are now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
That was long.
jordan holmes
Getting you to blind read that was, I think, the greatest thing that happened when we switched over.
That was it.
dan friesen
We got a technocrat in the mix, Jordan, so thank you so much to Patrick Madrid is praying for Zach in Maine to match this donation.
Thank you so much.
You are now a technocrat.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
unidentified
Four stars.
Go home to your mother and tell her you're brilliant.
pastor david manning
Someone, someone sodomite sent me a bucket of poop.
alex jones
Daddy Shark.
Bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp.
Jar Jar Binks has a Caribbean black accent.
unidentified
He's a loser little, little titty baby.
alex jones
I don't want to hate black people.
I renounce Jesus Christ!
dan friesen
Thank you so much.
jordan holmes
Yes, thank you very much.
dan friesen
So, lest we left off in the past...
jordan holmes
It's been a while since we were in the past.
dan friesen
Not really.
jordan holmes
Okay.
Well, for me, it's been a long time.
dan friesen
Yeah, I think our last 2004 episode came out on the 19th.
jordan holmes
So, one week ago.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Basically.
jordan holmes
It's been forever since we were in the past.
dan friesen
It's been a long week, though.
jordan holmes
It's been a long week.
dan friesen
Yeah.
But it involved Alex going to see The Passion.
unidentified
Right!
jordan holmes
Right, right, right, right.
dan friesen
Of course, that was also Don DeGrandpre.
jordan holmes
Yes, it was the first time we met Don DeGrandpre.
dan friesen
Yeah, so he had that happen, and that has no bearing whatsoever on what happens on this episode.
However, long, distant, long time since we've heard from him, Paul Joseph Watson is going to be coming on the show to talk about a very serious issue.
jordan holmes
Okay.
alex jones
I have Paul Watson.
He hasn't been on for three weeks.
The webmaster of PrisonPlanet.com.
We've broken several massive stories at Infowars.com and PrisonPlanet.com.
He's the webmaster for PrisonPlanet.
A photo was found from a 1982 San Francisco Chronicle article where John Kerry, the congressman, is smiling and adoring Anton LaVey, the Satanist, at a meeting with him.
And, you know, people are saying, wow, look at this photo.
Well, don't forget...
Kerry's a member of a real satanic order that goes back hundreds of years to Germany and to 1832 in this country, the admitted U.S. branch of the Illuminati, according to the Associated Press and MSNBC.
So at infowars.com and prisonplanet.com, we have John Forbes Kerry with Anton LaVey shaking his hands, smiling at him with pleasure.
And then the article quotes Kerry as saying that Well, I believe that we're all divine internally and that every religion has the truth.
And Anton LaVey then says to him, this is the essence of Satanism.
Well done.
dan friesen
These are some quotes, man.
I mean, I don't know how you get around this if you carry.
jordan holmes
I'm going to be honest.
If I had known that Kerry was a cool dude with Satanism, I think I would have been way more on his platform.
dan friesen
This is how easily swayed a dumb liberal like you is.
You hear that he likes the devil, and all of a sudden you're like, ooh, I don't mind his wishy-washy politics.
jordan holmes
I think it's more just like, oh, well, there's at least something about you.
dan friesen
There's a personality trait that is emerging.
jordan holmes
Something.
dan friesen
Yes, I mean, this is big.
I heard him talking about breaking a story about John Kerry, and I thought, well, maybe we're swift-boating.
Maybe this is where we're heading.
jordan holmes
Anton LeVang.
We're Satan-boating.
dan friesen
Yeah, so we got this news article.
You got a picture?
You got some quotes?
jordan holmes
Sure.
The essence of Satanism is John Kerry, according to the satanic temple itself, the essence of Satanism.
dan friesen
I don't know how this didn't torpedo his campaign.
jordan holmes
Strange.
It seems like that would be a really big deal.
dan friesen
So now, because of this...
The right-wing neocon types in the media, they're all on board with the Skull and Bones stuff now.
jordan holmes
Of course they are!
alex jones
Again, people handle the full horror of this.
Of course, the phony neocon Christian talk show hosts are all out exposing the fact now that, oh my gosh, he went to a meeting with Anton LaVey and was in the front page of the San Francisco Chronicle or in the front section of the San Francisco Chronicle.
This is amazing.
This is unbelievable.
There's a picture of Cary with a big pentagram behind him, by the way.
Very interesting.
jordan holmes
Very interesting.
alex jones
Oh, my gosh, he's a devil.
He's in skull and bones.
Lord, save us with Bush, your son.
I mean, basically, I've heard him imply that.
Bush is like this reincarnation.
He's like representing God.
It's like a pope or something.
It's blasphemous.
I've heard some Christian stations, he just...
Anointed by God and the Spirit of God's in him.
But Kerry's evil.
He's in that skull and bones.
But Bush is good.
It's good when he's in it.
It's good when he's...
When he's saying, I love Ozzy Osbourne, death and hell and blood.
dan friesen
I guess Bush loves Ozzy Osbourne.
jordan holmes
It's so crazy how people would call a political figure like a god king or like a chosen by the Lord.
dan friesen
Alex has just indicted himself on charges of blasphemy.
jordan holmes
It seems like he has.
dan friesen
Was it 2004?
No, the Osbournes would have been earlier than that, I think.
The reality show?
jordan holmes
No idea.
No idea.
dan friesen
Because Ozzy had that moment in the sun when that show was on and everybody liked him for a bit.
jordan holmes
I think what I've realized is through the couple of Kevin Smith references that we've talked about in the past couple of weeks, I've realized I think I'm six years off with all...
Pop culture references.
So whatever it is, it happened in, I think I'm going to call it something six years behind.
dan friesen
2002 was the premiere.
jordan holmes
You and I were both like, it's probably mid-90s, right?
dan friesen
I thought it was late 90s.
Totally.
No, 2002 to 2005.
So yeah, this is when the Osbournes was on and Ozzy was having his image rehab kind of thing going.
So yeah, it would make total sense for Bush to be like, I watched the Osbournes.
jordan holmes
Yeah, totally.
He's an old man that nobody can understand.
He's toothless.
He's ridiculous now.
He literally cannot bite the head off of a bat.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
Isn't he fun?
He's mad at somebody on the other side of the fence.
jordan holmes
Come on!
Where's Wilson, his neighbor?
You know what I'm saying?
dan friesen
No, Wilson was a castaway.
jordan holmes
Oh, I was thinking home improvement.
dan friesen
The same guy, though, right?
Wasn't it a volleyball on the other side of the fence?
So Alex has a guest on.
jordan holmes
I just saw, what if they had the fence, and then they just taped a little circle over it?
dan friesen
Bloody handprint.
So Alex has a guest on, and he's going to prison later today.
alex jones
Before I go any further, I just want to spend 5-10 minutes with him.
It's a horrible story.
We've had him on the show.
I have all the news articles.
He's done absolutely nothing.
Last year, South Texas, foreign troops, Mexican troops, illegals pouring across.
They're down there at a ranch.
They've got the national French media with them who documented it all and have testified.
Two illegals come across.
They give them blankets.
It was cold that morning.
Tell them, call the Border Patrol.
Hey, these guys are illegal.
They weren't hurt.
There's film of all this and photos.
National French media just so happened to be there.
They come and arrest Mr. Nethercott.
Do all this horrible stuff to him.
And then say he didn't show up for court and do all this stuff, which he did.
Well, now the governor is issued under the Patriot Act, and he has this directly from the prosecutor, Mr. North, that he's going to be arrested at 2 o 'clock Mountain.
That's in about two hours or three hours from now.
dan friesen
Yeah, so he's going to jail.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
He did not just give blankets.
unidentified
No!
jordan holmes
He was a humanitarian aide.
dan friesen
We talked about this.
jordan holmes
Oh, I recall this dude.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
This is also the one who illegally detained high school students.
So he has a little bit of a vigilante career.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Where he's gone errant.
So yeah, he comes on and is like, I don't know what to do.
jordan holmes
Go to jail and stop doing your kidnapping shit.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
When did stop kidnapping not become an option?
dan friesen
I mean, it did for him.
Yeah.
So Alex has a big rant about how we're in trouble, we're in hell, and it ends about how you'd expect.
jordan holmes
Okay.
alex jones
We are in hell!
We are in nightmare 1984 world!
I...
I was on a big liberal syndicated show.
unidentified
They're like, you're right, the police state bush is bad, but we need this to keep us safe.
alex jones
And I said, what about cameras in school bathrooms?
Well, there's guns in schools.
You know, we've got to.
You know, we're so brainwashed now that, oh, cameras in bathrooms, that's good.
That's not 1984.
What's wrong with you?
What happened to us?
What happened to us?
Debbie Morrow, if you want to stop drinking the poison they're putting in the water, let me tell you, you're insane if you drink dab water.
jordan holmes
You're nuts.
alex jones
Oh, I know you saw Dr. Strangelove, I'm a cook, saying that.
You know, Stanley Kubrick.
I'm weird.
I don't want you drinking fluoride and nickel and mercury and all the garbage.
I'm bad.
The movie says I'm crazy.
The TV says people are nuts, and they say, clean your water.
So don't listen to me.
But let's go to Debbie.
Don't listen to her either.
These are products made in America.
Debbie, tell folks real quick about the specials.
jordan holmes
Oh, Debbie.
dan friesen
So good.
jordan holmes
Debbie, tell people about the specials.
Tell folks about the specials.
I almost want that to be a dinner experience, you know, to just have somebody come up and scream at you for no reason about nonsense and they'll be like, all right, your waiter's going to tell you the specials and then just leave.
dan friesen
Doom be upon the hungry!
unidentified
There are sinners in the hands of an angry god!
dan friesen
But it has to be someone screaming warnings about not eating food or something.
Or not ordering a side.
jordan holmes
If the table does not share a plate of fries, then all of you shall die!
dan friesen
It has to be something that involves add-ons.
jordan holmes
Yeah, absolutely.
Don't eat too much.
Because there's dessert.
dan friesen
So, we get back to the Carey story here a little bit.
alex jones
There's a big hoopla, and I think it's important that people finally understand.
A picture tells a thousand words.
John Carey basically worshipping Anton LaVey, fawning on him.
jordan holmes
Sometimes pictures don't tell the right thousand words.
alex jones
Anton LaVey was a bombshell blonde or something, the way Carey's fawning over him.
Yeah, it's Carrie and Han LaVey meeting in San Francisco, a big pentagram behind them, one of their little functions, and, you know, it's when Marilyn Monroe does it, or Sammy Davis Jr., it's all cute, it's funny, and it's just for fun, you know, like Bush and Scull and Bones.
Ah, the Satanism's just for fun, you know how it is.
Very Christian, very conservative.
I'm evil and liberal because I'm against it.
I'm pro-gun.
I'm liberal, too.
You know how that works.
Now you're from big government.
Gun control at borders are conservative.
But this is, of course, you've got a real-life Satanist meeting with a carnival huckster Satanist.
I mean, well, of course you're going to have a love fest.
And, uh, Kerry, I got the quote here, said, I have no problem with Anton LaVey.
I believe we all have deity inside of us, and all religions are good.
Then he said, oh, yes, this is the essence of Satanism.
Yes, um-ah.
unidentified
Um-ah.
jordan holmes
Okay.
Question.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Which one is the real-life Satanist and which one is the carnival huckster Satanist?
dan friesen
I think Anton LaVey is the carnival one.
But shouldn't he be the- Because John Kerry's the one who is in Skull and Bones.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
So he should be the real one.
jordan holmes
Right, but Anton LaVey is the Satanist.
dan friesen
Yeah, but it's all just fun and games.
He's a showman.
jordan holmes
Sure.
Okay.
All right.
dan friesen
Also, now might be the time to tell you this is entirely fake.
unidentified
Oh, no!
jordan holmes
I was really hoping.
I was really dreaming.
I was dreaming for...
dan friesen
It's a Photoshop picture on a fake article.
jordan holmes
Oh, of course it is.
dan friesen
Yep.
Yep.
The quotes are fake.
jordan holmes
It never changes.
dan friesen
The picture's fake.
jordan holmes
The essence of Satanism never changes.
dan friesen
Nope.
Nope.
Yeah, Alex is reporting on just an entirely bullshit.
jordan holmes
Sure, sure.
The onion.
dan friesen
There's a lot of tells, too.
Like, I went and I looked at the picture, and it's very poorly photoshopped, number one.
jordan holmes
That's an issue.
dan friesen
Number two, very intentionally, the date on the top of the paper is creased over a little bit.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
So it says, like, Sunday the blank, the 17th of 1908, and then there's not a...
jordan holmes
Right, right, right, right.
dan friesen
And so, like, you can tell, like...
Someone wanted this to not quite be definitive.
But then also, there's only two Sundays in the 80s that would have been on the 17th.
jordan holmes
Oh, foiled by the calendar again!
dan friesen
Yeah, and one of them...
One is before Carrie was in office.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
And then the other is someone went through the San Francisco Chronicle and it's not in there.
But yeah, it's also a terrible Photoshop.
All entirely fake.
And Alex is running with it as...
unidentified
Why not?
dan friesen
One of the big stories.
jordan holmes
Biggest story in the world!
dan friesen
This guy's a fucking idiot.
jordan holmes
It would be the biggest story in the world.
Totally.
If it were real.
dan friesen
With the desire that the right had to attack Carrie.
jordan holmes
100%.
dan friesen
That would have been devastating.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
If this were real, you would already have known about it since we live in the future.
dan friesen
And Alex is pretending like the right-wing folks are covering it.
And I wouldn't be too surprised if some other people got duped by it.
Sure.
Alex fell for it pretty hard.
jordan holmes
I mean, man, there were days when people couldn't quite suss out bad Photoshop, and it seems silly in retrospect.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
This one is particularly...
Like, if you look at it...
jordan holmes
Somebody cut a picture out of a magazine and then fucking glued it to the...
dan friesen
They definitely don't look like they're in the same room.
jordan holmes
Right, right.
dan friesen
Anton LaVey also...
They don't look the right sizes, even, kind of.
jordan holmes
That's an issue.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Yeah.
So...
The Casey Nethercott situation, Alex wasn't even going to have him on to complain about how he was about to go to prison.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
But he got a call.
He had to do a favor for somebody that he now does a disservice to.
jordan holmes
Okay.
alex jones
Got a call at about 10 o 'clock this morning, about an hour before I went on air, and then of course we had Casey Nethercott on from Ranch Rescue.
The governor's publicly sent him to the Patriot Act.
They're just going to arrest him without charges for running Camp Thunderbird, exposing the illegal aliens with a ranch rescue in Arizona where two million illegals come across yearly in Cochise County alone.
That's the Fed's own numbers.
John Stepmiller called me.
You know, I'm friends with John.
John has his own show weeknights here on the station, on the network.
I quit doing the Saturday show with John just because I'm too busy.
I'm doing all these interviews.
I'm exhausted.
jordan holmes
You don't like John.
alex jones
I've already done two interviews this morning.
jordan holmes
You don't like John.
alex jones
I'm making a film.
But John called me, a testament to John, and he said, hey, Casey Nethercott needs your help.
By the time I get on air today, he's going to already be in jail, having to turn himself in on the National Guard to come into Camp Thunderbird there on the border, where they're there simply peaceably getting shot at by the Mexican troops, not firing back and videotaping the Mexican troops, drug dealing and the rest of it.
jordan holmes
Sure.
alex jones
Bringing the drugs across.
unidentified
Totally true.
alex jones
They've killed federal officers in the area, the Mexican troops have.
So, John said, oh, by the way, also my dad died this morning at 8 o 'clock.
So, I mean, here's John.
I just learned his dad died, and then he's busy calling me so I can have Casey Nethercott on.
Of course, John didn't know I was going to say this on the air, and I didn't even know if he wanted me to, but just, you know, we're...
We really care about this fight.
I mean, I am upset.
dan friesen
I bet John's upset now, too.
jordan holmes
I would be very upset.
dan friesen
Wow, that's not cool.
jordan holmes
Why did you say all of that?
I will never understand why people are friends with Alex.
dan friesen
It's baffling.
jordan holmes
It's amazing.
dan friesen
You could just tell that story, and he's...
He wouldn't be on air by the time he has to turn himself in.
He's fine.
You don't have to go and put his business on the streets like that.
alex jones
Nope.
dan friesen
That's not cool.
jordan holmes
He would be in jail when that guy's show started, so I'm going to have him on.
End of story?
dan friesen
Right, because you know what?
We help each other out in this fight.
unidentified
Totally.
dan friesen
No need to do this.
jordan holmes
None.
Only if you have a personal interest in kind of being a dick.
dan friesen
I think so.
Or maybe Alex just thinks...
Me saying that his dad died and he's still so interested in getting this information out or whatever is going to be a testament to how committed John is.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
Not realizing that, like, that's very personal, private business.
And it's up to John when he wants to come forth with that.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And share that with the public.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So, I don't know.
I think Alex might think that he's paying him a compliment when in actuality he's doing him dirty.
jordan holmes
I mean, yeah, we've all had the friend who's, like, revealed some information to people that you didn't.
You didn't want them to know it.
And you're like, that's kind of a shitty thing to do.
And they were like, oh, I didn't realize that.
Alex does this to everyone constantly.
dan friesen
On the radio.
jordan holmes
No, that's the problem.
Your shitty friend is only revealed to some people you know.
It's not on the fucking radio.
dan friesen
Yeah.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
So I find myself disappointed with Alex.
alex jones
What for?
dan friesen
Well, just about everything.
But most recently that.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And so I was thrilled that a caller calls in who is also disappointed with Alex.
alex jones
Rod in Texas.
Rod, you're on the air.
Go ahead.
unidentified
Yeah, Alex.
I'm about ready to raise your blood pressure about 10 points, so be prepared.
I am very disappointed in you, to be honest with you.
I've been listening to you for about 10 years, and my opinion of you has really gone downhill, and here's why.
dan friesen
I got really excited about this.
jordan holmes
I like this.
This is a great start to any conversation.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Yeah.
I've lost a lot of faith in you over 10 years.
Here's why.
jordan holmes
Hey, buddy.
I listen to you every day, and I have for about 10 years.
You suck now.
Let me tell you about it.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
So here he's going to tell them about it.
Or try.
unidentified
Okay.
I am very disappointed in you, to be honest with you.
I've been listening to you for about 10 years, and my opinion of you has really gone downhill, and here's why.
What I've been hearing from you is a lot of talk, talking the talk, but not walking the walk.
alex jones
Sure, I don't do enough like you do.
unidentified
Yeah, exactly.
alex jones
You got all the answers.
You get out there and you bust your...
unidentified
Yes, I do.
I absolutely do.
alex jones
Okay.
unidentified
Let me just tell you how I do that.
alex jones
No, no, let me finish.
Let me finish.
unidentified
Put him on hold.
jordan holmes
Oh, man.
dan friesen
I can appreciate that guy's response of like...
Yeah, I do.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Because Alex is trying to be a dick.
Yeah.
I'd be like, oh, yeah, I'm sure you go out.
You walk the walk, don't you?
Yes.
Yes, I do, Alex.
jordan holmes
Well, I mean, that's his opportunity to intimidate you into being a little bit wishy-washy.
And you're like, you know, I could do more.
No, you can't do that.
unidentified
No.
jordan holmes
Just step up to the plate, hit it out of the park.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Even if you feel like maybe you do have some points that are assailable, you just ignore it.
unidentified
Shut up.
jordan holmes
Keep going.
He would do the same to you.
dan friesen
Yep.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
And then he just puts them on hold.
jordan holmes
And then he puts them on hold.
dan friesen
So this seems to keep happening.
alex jones
Put him on hold.
Look, it isn't about Alex Jones, okay?
And I've helped defeat legislation in this state.
I've helped support those that are in trouble and get them out of trouble.
I've done the best I can.
I've never said I was perfect.
unidentified
Okay, let me tell you.
alex jones
No, no, no, put him back on hold.
But people that call in and say, I'm not good, I'm not doing enough, frankly, I think that's a sick joke.
So you've got about another minute left.
Go ahead.
unidentified
What you're doing is you're acting like a sportscaster at a game, and all you're doing is you're narrating and you're analyzing the game.
You're not a leader.
You're not a leader whatsoever.
alex jones
Absolutely.
I've never said that I want to be your leader.
unidentified
No, I didn't say that.
alex jones
Put him back on hold.
Put him back on hold.
dan friesen
Man, he loves putting people on hold.
jordan holmes
Listen.
dan friesen
I would too.
jordan holmes
Once you have that power in any conversation to put people on hold, you can never relinquish it.
dan friesen
Right.
And especially if you need to, like...
Frame people's positions in a certain way in order to wiggle around them.
Then it is very helpful.
jordan holmes
No, you can't clarify.
I'm going to put the boundaries on this conversation and you can live within those or you can leave.
dan friesen
And then I can say something and you'll respond and I'll pretend that you're not responding.
jordan holmes
And then we'll be done.
dan friesen
So Alex is not a leader, right?
He just documents.
He documents the evils.
That's what he has for this call.
alex jones
See, you're frustrated, you're mad about the state of affairs, and so now it's my fault.
We had committees of correspondence in this country for a decade leading up to 1776 that exposed what our rights were, how they were being violated, and who was doing it.
I am chronicling the outrages, just like the jungle chronicled the abuses in the factories.
You have to educate people about evils so they will then rise up and stand against it.
And my message is to tell others to stand up and spread the word.
And I've never seen people as receptive.
I've never seen people waking up like this.
And how dare you say I'm not doing a good job.
That's ridiculous.
Now go ahead, buddy.
You tell us what you've done.
No, no, no.
Put it back on hold.
Put it back on hold.
You tell us what you've done.
You tell us how you...
I'm sure you've got some magical legal thing you do, right?
jordan holmes
That was a rhetorical question!
Yeah.
dan friesen
And yeah, so Alex at the end there's like, I'm sure you've got some magical legal thing.
He's just like implying that this guy is obviously a sovereign citizen of some sort that has a magic word that he can say.
jordan holmes
Tubal Cain.
dan friesen
So, yeah.
I mean, like, sure.
Alex, his point is somewhat fair.
Except that all of the things that he's saying are fucking bullshit.
So, like, he's documenting the evils and having a correspondence committee or whatever, but he's just riling people up with nonsense in order to serve and further his political means or whatever.
It's nonsense.
jordan holmes
He is not Upton Sinclair writing The Jungle.
He's Roger Kipling writing The Jungle Book.
He is far more racist and making up bullshit to convince people that there are savages out there.
dan friesen
That is well put.
So this caller, what does he actually want?
He gets to it here.
And actually, I mean, this caller is right.
alex jones
You tell us how you...
I'm sure you've got some magical legal thing you do, right?
But you tell us how you're saving us.
unidentified
Let me give you a real-time example.
Casey called up, and he was pleading for help.
If we had a militia, if we really had a militia, and you supported the militia...
alex jones
You mean a bunch of feds trying to frame other people?
unidentified
Well, about him being taken in.
And we got something like, Mark Kornke advised or advocated the Mop Bucket Brigade.
He had 10,000 people out there.
Yes, let's have the confrontation.
But you will never say that, because you're walking the fine line, because you don't want to be shut down, because you're milking...
Everything you can, because this is your, quote, your job, your profession.
alex jones
It is my job.
Thank you.
Thanks for the call.
And let me answer this idiot.
I'm not going to call you an idiot.
I just don't appreciate you saying those things to me.
Again, he's not mad about the New World Order.
And you know what?
He's sitting there saying, get violent.
Well, it's free country, buddy.
Free country.
dan friesen
Caller didn't say to get violent.
jordan holmes
No, no, no, no.
dan friesen
He's talking about the specific case of Casey Nethercott, who called in.
He's like, I don't know what to do.
I need help.
You know, that is what his call was.
I have to turn myself in later today, or else they're going to send people to come get me.
So this caller, if Alex believes the story that Casey is telling him...
Mm-hmm.
or something.
Yeah.
unidentified
Like, there is no other response to that than get some people over there.
jordan holmes
Yeah, absolutely.
dan friesen
Like the Bundy standoff kind of thing.
is what Alex should be calling them to do.
And this caller is correct in saying as much that you're not doing that because You make money off this shit.
jordan holmes
No!
You know, the ironic part of all of this, right, is that the thing that makes the most sense to do is hold a standoff with the United States government because they're inevitably going to do some illegal shit and then later on, whenever it all settles down and you're in court, you'll get off on their technicality.
dan friesen
Well, see, this is the long game.
jordan holmes
That's the trick!
They always lose in court because they do too much illegal shit because they're like, how dare you not go to court?
It's amazing.
dan friesen
Don't give that advice to Alex's folks.
jordan holmes
It's great advice.
dan friesen
I think that this is all based on a faulty, faulty premise, and that is Casey's story.
Because he's lying, and he abused these immigrants, and he deserves to be arrested.
But if you live in a world where you solidly believe that that is not the case, and he was very nice, and he gave them blankets, and there's all this evidence that he's totally innocent, and the government doesn't care, then that is a point where you should probably do that.
jordan holmes
I mean, if I'm at a protest...
dan friesen
Based on what they believe, there is no reason that this should not be a standoff.
jordan holmes
If I am at a protest and the cops grab somebody, it is incumbent upon all of us to grab that person back.
I am not going to just say that it's okay for them to be arrested and that that's an acceptable thing for them to just do.
dan friesen
Ideally...
jordan holmes
We are in a conflict and that means you don't get to just do whatever you want.
dan friesen
At the very least, I'm not saying it has to end up being an armed conflict where you're shooting at the police or anything.
jordan holmes
Absolutely not.
dan friesen
But showing up there as like at least solidarity or something along to make a political point to force a confrontation in some sort of way that.
that will gather media attention and humanize the situation of this Casey guy who's being unjustly jammed up by the government.
That is incumbent upon you to do if you're someone like Alex.
But he doesn't believe it.
jordan holmes
No, no, no.
It was and is a thing that was a good idea for the Black Panthers to watch people get arrested with guns in their hands.
You know, like, just listen.
Fine.
If this is a crime, if we're going to do the law, fine.
That's fine.
But we're both going to do it.
Okay?
And we're here to hold you accountable because nobody else is.
So that makes sense to me.
And it's not violent.
It is accountability.
dan friesen
Sure.
But here's the difference with that.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
Like, there's a different opinion between the law and...
Casey Nethercott and his friends about what the law is.
jordan holmes
Sure, sure.
dan friesen
So, there wouldn't be a situation where you could come to an agreement of, like, well, if we're doing the law, that's fine.
But if you're doing other stuff, it's not.
Because it is other stuff, by definition.
jordan holmes
No, no, no, that's the problem.
dan friesen
So, at the same time, like, I think what this reveals is that Alex doesn't even believe Casey's story.
And he's just using this for his own purposes.
It's something that works well for him.
Right.
But if he believed it, then it would...
Be something that would be a necessary inflection point of some kind.
unidentified
Sure.
jordan holmes
I mean, that's obviously the problem.
It's a fundamentally unbelievable story.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
And Alex knows that.
jordan holmes
At its core, that story is ridiculous.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
And that's not what this caller is saying, because the caller believes it, too.
jordan holmes
Right.
Exactly.
dan friesen
And so that is kind of threatening to Alex in an interesting way.
And so he gets real mad.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And really bummed out for the rest of this episode because this guy raised his blood pressure.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I mean, of course.
The grifter and the believer can never get along.
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
They just can't.
dan friesen
No, they will be at odds with each other.
jordan holmes
But yet the believer will give the grifter all their money.
dan friesen
Until the point when they realize, oh no.
jordan holmes
There is a point.
dan friesen
And then they'll give another grifter some money.
jordan holmes
I was going to say, yeah, they're going to go to a different grifter.
dan friesen
A grifter with a slightly more harsh message.
jordan holmes
Somebody who will give me a different belief.
dan friesen
Yep.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
So Alex gets another call, and this person has a sister who's a public defender, but not a good one.
jordan holmes
Oh.
alex jones
What?
Let's talk to John in Tennessee, then we'll go to Regina, Dave, and others.
Go ahead, John.
unidentified
I'm a paralegal who might be able to help Ranch Rescue without violence, but everyone does have the right to self-defense.
alex jones
That's what I said, yes.
He wants me to sit here on the radio and do that, but he won't do it himself.
unidentified
Well, Casey Nevercott should never plead guilty or waivers his right to sue for false arrest.
alex jones
He hasn't.
They just keep arresting him and putting him in solitary confinement with no charges.
unidentified
My sister is a public defender in Tucson, Arizona, but she's never won a case out of thousands of cases, so I don't recommend him relying on a public defender from the government.
jordan holmes
That's overworked, underpaid, no time, no case structure.
Everything is impossible.
Their entire job is based morally around trying to negotiate deals for less jail time and not innocence.
So I get it.
But it is still funny to never win a case out of thousands.
It's just funny.
It's just funny.
It's not my fault.
dan friesen
It's funny because of the way this guy is saying this.
Yeah, exactly.
jordan holmes
It's not her.
dan friesen
As if it was helpful.
jordan holmes
He's your sister, man.
Come on, man.
dan friesen
Also, Alex, this guy did not say you should do this, and he is unwilling to do it.
That guy seemed very willing.
jordan holmes
He said yes, that is what he does as a thing.
dan friesen
But Alex, he needs reassurance from this caller, and I'm not sure he gets it totally.
alex jones
Am I bad because I'm not calling for armed revolt right now?
unidentified
Well, you do your part, and other people need to do their part.
alex jones
Yeah, but I don't think the answer is armed revolt, and I love these people that say, you need to go have an armed revolt, or you're a coward.
unidentified
Well, there's a place for that, and if Ranch Rescue wants to study the law, and if they see the police breaking the law, they do have the right to self-defense and lawful use of justifiable homicide.
Anybody has that right.
alex jones
But notice, notice, they're not bad if they don't, but I'm bad because I don't.
unidentified
Well, I...
No comment on that.
dan friesen
Yeah, I wouldn't have commented the part about justifiable murder.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I would have left that one alone.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Hey, you know, there's reasons to kill the cops.
That's not...
I don't even...
Let it go.
dan friesen
If a lawsuit doesn't work...
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
unidentified
Sometimes.
jordan holmes
That's the one that's weird.
dan friesen
Yeah.
I think that this caller might be closer to that other caller's side than to Alex's.
But yeah, it gets muddied in this...
This strange need that Alex has to have a hundred different reasons why he's right.
So there's a militia that comes down to stand with him.
It's probably the feds.
There's one.
jordan holmes
Definitely.
dan friesen
And then you got him trying to turn this into a thing where he's calling for armed violence.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
He's not.
jordan holmes
He didn't do that.
dan friesen
He's not asking Alex to call for the revolution or anything.
There's a...
It's so telling of his insincerity.
The inability to handle something like this where a caller calls in and suggests him do the thing that his beliefs imply.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
And that's...
jordan holmes
I mean, but who...
It's hard not to point to everybody at a certain point sooner or later being like, I believe this and then facing the choice.
And backing down.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
We've all been there.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
We've all come to a head with our beliefs and been like, well, for one reason or another, I can't follow through this time.
You know?
It happens.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
But Alex can't deal with that being a regularity of existence.
It has to be, actually, I am still doing it.
dan friesen
Well, it's fine when you're a person.
You know, but when you're a demagogue type...
jordan holmes
It's the toughest part.
dan friesen
That is not something that you can...
Because Alex is supposed to be fully thought out in all of his positions and everything is...
He knows everything and there's, you know, all this.
There's no room for that.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
If you're selling yourself as extraordinary, you can't be ordinary.
dan friesen
Yeah.
But you know who is extraordinary?
unidentified
Who?
jordan holmes
John Kerry?
dan friesen
Paul Joseph Watson.
jordan holmes
Oh, no!
dan friesen
Yep.
He's going to come on and talk about all the important stories in the world.
And you might want to note that all of these stories are fake.
alex jones
All right, ladies and gentlemen.
We're now at the halfway point of this Monday global transmission.
A ton of news coming up.
We're about to go back to Regina, Dave, Jack, Elizabeth, and others that are patiently holding with our guest Paul Watson.
Hadn't been on the show in three weeks.
And I tell you, at PrisonPlanet.com and Infowars.com, he's the webmaster for Prison Planet.
Does a great job.
My wife's the webmaster for Infowars.com.
She does a wonderful job as well.
We've got some major news stories broken.
It looks like they're about to engage in the stage capture of Bin Laden, as we said they would two years ago, as I said they would.
jordan holmes
They're way off.
alex jones
We've got John Kerry with Anton LaVey.
Very revealing.
We've got the NRA engaged in covert gun grabbing and disarmament.
Benedict Arnold.
We've got a lot of important things happening here in the Infowars.
dan friesen
All fake.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that might as well have ended with we've got a unicorn sighting.
Like, that is absurd.
dan friesen
Yeah.
And it's skiing.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Just what are we doing here?
dan friesen
Yeah.
So, of course, Bin Laden's going to be discovered in 2004.
Carrie is pictured with the Satanist.
jordan holmes
I don't even know how to...
dan friesen
And the NRA is taking your guns.
jordan holmes
I genuinely don't even know how to parody that in a regular news organization.
What could a regular news organization say of a three-thing nonsense that would equal in ridiculousness that?
It's bananas!
dan friesen
Yeah, but it all makes sense on his show.
jordan holmes
Totally.
dan friesen
Yeah, like, if you're watching this, it's like, yep, that's the news.
jordan holmes
No, I mean, because that's kind of the problem with the parodying of it for, like, CNBC or something.
It's like, that's just them doing the normal news.
In his world, it's the same thing.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
So, what Paul needs to do for Alex first is reassure him about that bad call.
jordan holmes
Well, of course, he's feeling bad.
alex jones
And Paul Watson, good to have you on the show with us, sir.
paul joseph watson
Great to be back on the air, Alex.
alex jones
You bet.
You know, I was just thinking, did you hear that guy say, I'm bad because I'm not calling for violence?
paul joseph watson
Yeah, I heard it.
I get this basically every day, the fact that people say, oh, you're in it to make money, and if I had a dollar for everybody that said that, then I wouldn't need to be in it to make money in the first place, because when you look at these people who make these accusations, often you find that...
Those people themselves are doing absolutely nothing on their own part, and they're just slinging mud at anyone who's...
alex jones
Well, it's like somebody called last week and was mad that Mel Gibson's movie was doing well.
It was on Thursday, and good.
He makes good films.
Now he can make more.
But my point is, I say make copies of my videos.
Oh, that's not good enough.
You're supposed to have a cardboard box you live in, and you stand there on the street corner, and you don't...
By the way, the government takes your money by force.
We're bad because we say, here we have a book or we have a video.
You can make copies of it, too.
We're suddenly bad.
But forget that argument.
The other argument was, you know, you're no leader.
You need to call for violence.
Well, notice the people always doing that.
I remember people would tell militia leaders to do that.
They'd sit there in the shadows and do it.
The militia leader would shoot their mouth off, the feds would grab them, and then suddenly the person that told them to do it would jump up and be in the article, long-time informant, said that he recorded the violence statements.
It's always the long-time informant.
So they know we're winning peaceably.
They know we're hurting them and exposing their crimes.
So they want to get us to prematurely move with violence.
I'm praying we can avert violence.
If it goes to martial law, and believe me, you'll know when you're in total martial law, then we have no choice, Paul.
dan friesen
Okay.
Well, I think he said that we're in martial law stuff now.
We're definitely within the...
jordan holmes
We've been...
dan friesen
So I guess you won't know.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that is kind of the problem, apparently.
dan friesen
You'll know when you see it, but also maybe not, and maybe I'll be wishy-washy to the very last.
jordan holmes
The problem is the seeing it part, is even if I haven't seen it, that's the problem.
dan friesen
Yeah, and I don't think that this guy had a problem with Alex making money.
I think it was that making money is getting in the way of you being sincere to what appears to be your cause.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
I think what is going on is Alex is trying to turn the conversation from one that is about following through with your beliefs to one that is about whether or not you can ever listen to an impure person.
Do you know what I'm saying?
Like, it's a purity test question.
dan friesen
We have all sinned.
jordan holmes
I get it.
I'm not perfect.
Well, you're not perfect.
Like, he's trying to do that, because fuck it.
Yeah, obviously.
But he can't deal with a conversation where it's like, if you believe this is true, then you have to do this.
dan friesen
Yeah, how could you let Casey get arrested if you have any sway on people, like, being able to mobilize and help him in some way, or make a difference?
Like, even if it is just...
Do something, like, not violent, not blow something up, not shoot people, but have a big enough gathering of people that you get media attention to this unjust arrest.
How can you not...
Like, be a part of facilitating that if you believe the things that you're reporting about him.
jordan holmes
Totally.
If you believe that Trump killed 12 million people, that's disqualifying.
Whether you think it was on purpose or if he was tricked.
Because that means that if he gets elected again...
unidentified
Oh, you're talking about the vaccine.
jordan holmes
Yeah, if he gets elected again, then he can be tricked into killing 12 million people again.
dan friesen
Sure, sure.
jordan holmes
You know, like, these are disqualifying things.
You can't wave them away.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
In this case, I really wish that the caller was more on the line of, like, you don't believe the things you're saying.
Because the accusation is still, he believes the things that he's saying, but he's using them to make money instead of...
He doesn't believe the stuff that he thinks about Casey, because the extremeness of the things that are being reported...
About, like, how illegal this arrest is.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
It would be impossible to let that stand.
jordan holmes
Sir, sir, I think what you're missing is that I don't believe any of this shit.
dan friesen
I believe John Kerry met with the devil.
jordan holmes
You are thinking I'm not sincere in my beliefs.
Sir, I have no beliefs.
Come get me.
What do you got?
dan friesen
So this John Kerry picture comes up with Paul Joseph Watson.
jordan holmes
Sure.
This very real 100%.
unidentified
I've gotta say this about Paul.
dan friesen
Real shithead in the present.
Real shithead for many years.
But you gotta give him his due.
He did tell Alex to stop covering Sandy Hook.
jordan holmes
That's true.
dan friesen
That is definable.
It is provable from the time.
jordan holmes
True.
dan friesen
And sometimes he has instincts.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Because he's telling Alex that this is probably fake.
So here's how that goes.
alex jones
But let's get into Satanism.
Skull and Bones, this new article going back to 1982 with John Forbes Carey and his master, Anton LaVey.
jordan holmes
His master!
paul joseph watson
Well, word of caution on that.
Still investigating it, but I've had a few emails which say that this photo is actually staged.
Obviously, we're not going to lie to people.
We had the photo of Carey in the anti-war rally with Jane Fonda, which later came out of stage.
And the article, which is from the San Francisco Chronicle, is dated Sunday, July 17, 1982.
Now, a lot of people have said that there was no Sunday, July 17, 1982.
It was, in fact, a Saturday.
So it seems at the moment, and we have to confirm this, obviously we'll keep people updated, that this may be another example of how they try to muddy the waters on the fact that...
People are pointing out Kerry's involvement in Skull and Bones along with his cousin George Bush.
alex jones
I don't know.
I went and saw some articles that have now been written about it and I looked at that photo.
I mean, it looks real to me.
jordan holmes
Really?
dan friesen
That's amazing.
Because what Paul is saying is that date doesn't exist.
It's a fake date.
And Alex's response is, photo looks good.
jordan holmes
Maybe.
Maybe.
The paper wrote the date wrong.
How about that?
dan friesen
Alex, you are really indicating how badly you want to believe that this is real.
jordan holmes
I mean, it is like, maybe this is an example of them muddying the waters.
Maybe it's an example of you being so voraciously in need of anything that justifies your ridiculous opinions that you're willing to believe in nonsense.
dan friesen
So here's the two things that are happening that are just bananas.
One is Alex's desperation to believe this to the point of, like, That date doesn't exist.
I'm going to ignore that and say the picture looks good.
jordan holmes
That's one piece of evidence.
dan friesen
And then the second thing is Paul's instincts are sharp.
Because he is now accepting that this is probably fake.
And so what he's doing is coming up with a secondary story.
And that is that the globalists put this out in order to be discredited.
Because eventually it'll be shown to be fake.
And then that discredits all the stories about Carrie being in Skull and Bones.
unidentified
This is a...
It's a false...
dan friesen
It's a limited hangout, baby!
This is a honey trap!
jordan holmes
It's pretty cool.
And at the same time, one, he 100% knows this is fake.
And two, he's doing this...
In a way that is both like, Alex, you're not stupid for thinking this was real.
Just to be clear, Alex, you're a very smart person.
This is totally fine that you believe that this nonsense is real.
I think that's great.
But also, in case you were wondering, I'm still investigating.
dan friesen
We're still investigating.
jordan holmes
We're still investigating.
dan friesen
The jury's out.
jordan holmes
Absolutely.
dan friesen
Nah.
unidentified
Nah, dude.
dan friesen
So anyway, a caller calls in and brings up another reason that this is fake.
And here's how Alex responds to that.
unidentified
But I do have a question for you in regards to one of the articles that you have on your website today.
Sure.
You had a picture of Anton LaVey with John Kerry.
alex jones
Yeah, and we don't know if that's accurate, Paul says.
We're trying to find out.
unidentified
Okay, because I actually posted it on a message board, and we've been talking about it on this message board, and one of the guys says that it mentions John Kerry as a congressman.
And it's supposed to be from 1982.
However, John Kerry wasn't even a congressman until 1985.
alex jones
No, he was a congressman.
He says he's been over 20 years in Congress.
unidentified
Well, I checked it up on John Kerry's own website, and it says that he was elected to Congress in 1985.
alex jones
Yeah, Paul brought that up in the last hour.
That what they do is we have all this real stuff out there, and then they'll put out disinfo to then be discredited, and then, oh, I heard that isn't true.
He isn't a member of Skull and Bones.
So we'll try to get to the bottom of it.
unidentified
Okay.
All right.
Thanks.
That's pretty much it.
We were just trying to figure out whether it was a real image.
alex jones
Well, it sure looks real.
unidentified
It does.
It does.
You got that right.
jordan holmes
You already answered your own question!
He wasn't a congressman until three years afterwards.
unidentified
There's no other questions that need to be asked.
jordan holmes
The answer is found!
dan friesen
Well, to be fair, like I said, the date is creased a little bit.
So there could be, like, the people saying it's 1982 could be wrong.
jordan holmes
It could be a 5. It could be a 1985.
dan friesen
I think 88 was the year that the Sunday would have matched up right.
So it could be that.
That's the way you could play it if you wanted to do that.
But...
Yeah, so it's, I mean, it's just fake as shit, but Alex is hanging on so hard.
Still looks good, he says, and also is trying to dispute when Kerry got into Congress just so he can hold on to this hoax.
jordan holmes
One of the most exhaustively detailed things is just when people went to Congress.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Well, I mean, people are proud of it, so they, you know, getting elected's a big deal.
jordan holmes
So absurdly detailed and exhaustively written about.
dan friesen
Yep.
jordan holmes
Oh, boy.
dan friesen
So, we're still looking into this one.
jordan holmes
I mean, for people who love the idea of that, like, one argument solving legal cases of just being like, ha-ha!
It is because of da-ba-ba on the ba-ba-ba.
And then you get to walk away, you know, like the king?
This is the most smoking gun evidence you could have.
He wasn't there!
dan friesen
I think better evidence would just be there's a big pentagram behind him and the photoshop looks like shit.
jordan holmes
There's definitely that.
There's definitely that.
dan friesen
Ah, fun.
So yeah, I wonder, I'm excited to see if the next day he has a retraction.
But here's the thing.
He doesn't have to retract it because it can be a globalist psyop.
Like they have said, it's so good.
Even when you're wrong, you have an opportunity to just pivot it a tiny bit and make it a larger conspiracy that actually works for you.
And honestly, with an internet prank hoax like this...
How's anyone ever going to really say if it was the globalists or not?
jordan holmes
Totally.
dan friesen
Even if you find out who posted it the first time, it could be, oh, sock puppet account of George Soros.
jordan holmes
Right?
Why not?
dan friesen
Yeah.
It's so dumb.
jordan holmes
It is one of those things that's so deceptively easy.
That you think like, oh man, that would be a good thing, but it's too easy.
It takes your soul away to have things come to you that easily, where you can be both wrong and right and it never matters.
You can just say whatever you want, and if it is wrong, you just pivot slightly and be like, aha, they told me to say it!
dan friesen
The fact that I'm wrong is part of the conspiracy.
jordan holmes
Oh my god, you drive me insane, sir!
dan friesen
Yeah, it is a fun game in terms of like, it requires almost no effort, but when you get used to putting in zero effort, Breaks you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then, I mean, we see where he's at now.
jordan holmes
You see what happens.
dan friesen
So, let this be a cautionary tale about...
jordan holmes
Strive for things.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Don't believe that pictures of Carrie with the devil are real.
jordan holmes
I mean, that should almost be like a map point.
You are here.
If you believe that pictures of Carrie and such are there, you are here and you can see where you're going to go.
dan friesen
Well, yeah, I mean, like, just put it on a macro level.
Believing all kinds of bullshit on social media, you're here.
And then a little bit later, just a picture of Alex in the present.
This is where you will end up.
Ooh, ooh.
At least intellectually.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So, you know, we come to the end of this, and this is an interesting little bit of an adventure through a day in the life.
jordan holmes
It was fun!
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
It was a delight!
dan friesen
Yeah, in terms of...
Some Alex content that you can get.
This was pretty...
jordan holmes
I don't even think we had anything anti-Semitic today.
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
That's downright miraculous.
dan friesen
If it is, it's crypto as hell.
jordan holmes
You got us.
We're pretty attuned at this point.
dan friesen
So yeah, you just get this fun little charade about Anton LaVey.
Alex having to wrestle with people telling him it's fake at the end, and Alex having a caller who takes the piss out of him a little bit, and he gets pissed off.
That's fun!
That's a good day!
jordan holmes
That is the fun part about, just like, listen, we have three hours to fill, like it or not.
There's no, like, oh, we've run out of news today, so we're going to take the next hour off.
Which means some days it's like there's nothing going on.
We're talking about Anton LaVey and John Kerry photoshopped in the same picture on a fake news article from a year that didn't happen.
dan friesen
Here's the trouble, though.
Like, slow news day or not, Alex is covering that.
unidentified
That's a good point.
dan friesen
That's big.
jordan holmes
That's right.
I apologize.
What a fool I've been.
They could literally have killed it with Bin Laden that day.
unidentified
Alex probably bumped multiple stories in order to cover that.
This is like the fertile ground for him.
jordan holmes
Ah, that's the stuff.
That's the stuff.
dan friesen
So, we will be back.
But, yeah, you know, the...
You know, you could be in a bit of a bummer sometimes, and I have been, and, you know, it'll pass.
It'll pass.
We'll make it through to the other side, and the other side eventually leads to Manchester.
But until then, Jordan, we have a web.
jordan holmes
Indeed we do.
It's knowledgefight.com.
dan friesen
We're also on Twitter.
jordan holmes
We are on Twitter.
It's at knowledge underscore fight.
dan friesen
Yep.
We'll be back.
But until then, I'm Neo.
I'm Leo.
I'm DZX.
unidentified
Clark.
And now here comes the sex robots.
alex jones
Andy in Kansas.
You're on the air.
Thanks for holding.
unidentified
Hello, Alex.
jordan holmes
I'm a first time caller.
unidentified
I'm a huge fan.
I love your work.
