#948: July 24, 2024

Knowledge Fight #948 dissects Alex Jones’ July 24, 2024, episode where he pivoted to wild claims—like a CIA-orchestrated Trump assassination attempt and Kamala Harris’ "border czar" title as right-wing branding—while dismissing callers questioning his own credibility. He promoted Dr. Stella Emmanuel’s expired-medicine stockpiling advice, ignoring risks like resistance or toxicity, and pivoted to The Shooter trailer as "predictive programming." Despite mocking mainstream media, Jones selectively rejects conspiracies (e.g., JD Vance’s VP selection) while his show thrives on unhinged rhetoric, proving his theories adapt to convenience rather than evidence.

Hello, Alex.
I'm a fish-fanter fan.
alex jones
I love your room.
Knowledge fight.
Knowledgefight.com.
I love you.
dan friesen
Hey, everybody.
Welcome back, Knowledge Fight.
I'm Dan.
jordan holmes
I'm Jordan.
dan friesen
We're a couple dudes.
Like to sit around and worship at the altar of Selene and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
Oh, indeed we are, Dan.
dan friesen
Jordan.
alex jones
Dan.
dan friesen
Jordan.
jordan holmes
Quick question for you.
dan friesen
What's up?
jordan holmes
What's your bright spot today, buddy?
dan friesen
My bright spot today is I've been getting into a blank check with Griffin Newman and David Singh.
jordan holmes
I was going to say that movie from the 90s that I remember eerily specifically.
dan friesen
No, that movie where the rich guy gives the kid a bunch of stuff.
A check and buys a bunch of stuff.
jordan holmes
No, no, no, no.
It's not a rich guy who gives it to him.
See, it was a bad guy who had obtained it through nefarious means.
And then he had accidentally dropped the check or whatever after signing it.
The kid takes some money out of the bank and they're all like, I don't know if this is okay because there's no production since the 90s.
And then the evil guy is like, why the fuck did you let a child take out hundreds of thousands of dollars?
dan friesen
Well, now I'm really into this.
jordan holmes
It's a great movie.
And then he builds a roller coaster in his backyard.
No, every dream I have ever had happened in the 90s.
dan friesen
I get this mixed up with like Brewster's Millions in my mind.
jordan holmes
Totally.
That was also a dream movie for me.
dan friesen
These movies about people who have too much money all of a sudden.
Yes.
But yeah, no, the podcast, I don't really like movies all that much.
I'm not a big movie guy.
Oh, but it's fun to listen to people who care a lot talk really in depth about movies.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Oh, I don't know why.
jordan holmes
I think I've heard about that.
This is the show where they like talk about whenever super famous directors get too much money.
dan friesen
No, when they have a big hit and pop culture gives them a blank check.
Right.
And so you follow their career trajectories of like whether that check cashes or bounces.
unidentified
Right.
jordan holmes
Oh, that's a good.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
That makes sense.
dan friesen
Yeah, it's really interesting to.
They're also very funny and charming.
That's great.
But yeah, I'm enjoying that.
jordan holmes
That's awesome.
dan friesen
Peek into movies that I don't know anything about a lot of people.
jordan holmes
How about that?
Very few, very few podcasts get an advertisement from us.
dan friesen
I enjoy it.
Anyway, what's your bright spot?
jordan holmes
My bright spot is to piggyback on our last show.
My wife is home.
dan friesen
Hooray!
jordan holmes
She's home.
We went on our trip, you know, and we took a bunch of flights.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
And while we're flying, it's fine.
No big deal.
dan friesen
Debatable.
jordan holmes
For me.
For me.
dan friesen
For me as well.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I mean in the air, like I'm not worried.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
When she was flying yesterday, for some reason, I was just in that state of like, oh my.
dan friesen
You were worried on her behalf.
jordan holmes
Oh, totally.
I couldn't imagine.
I couldn't believe how worried I was about a flight.
dan friesen
Interesting.
jordan holmes
Because it's like, but then you stop and think, and it's like, the past five days have been all airlines are essentially on computer fire.
So it's more reasonable to be slightly worried or concerned now than perhaps two years.
dan friesen
We guessed it.
I guess so.
Maybe.
Or maybe you're talking yourself into just giving yourself a pass.
jordan holmes
I'm not giving myself a pass.
I'm just saying that I feel like I was the last time, or last year, whenever she flew, she flew across the ocean.
Not as worried as this time.
dan friesen
Okay, so this is about the crowd strike.
jordan holmes
I think so.
I think so.
I think it was like a part of me being like, oh, man, I understand that Southwest just pushes you on a plane, and that's why they're still flying.
But I don't know if that's good.
Is that good?
dan friesen
Yeah, I think there's a little bit more rationality to your worry than in other circumstances.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
But she's home safe.
dan friesen
She made it.
Came in last night, if you recall correctly.
jordan holmes
Perfect.
unidentified
Nice.
jordan holmes
Yep.
Drove her from Midway to the home.
dan friesen
Gorgeous historic Midway.
jordan holmes
The beauty of Midway Airport.
dan friesen
One of the best.
One of the best two airports in Chicago.
jordan holmes
Oh, it is a firm number two.
Yep.
dan friesen
Well, congratulations.
I'm glad she made it back safe.
Yeah, it's nice.
So today, Jordan, we have an episode to go over.
jordan holmes
Indeed.
dan friesen
We're going to be talking about the 24th of July.
That would be Wednesday's show of this week.
Biden has dropped out of the race.
Right now, I assume you've learned a little bit more about that.
You filled yourself in on stuff.
It's not that important.
This episode will largely be a bunch of nonsense and Alex being really racist about Kamala Harris.
jordan holmes
That sounds about right.
I think we're previewing the next several months.
Yeah, I would imagine that this.
dan friesen
And possibly years.
jordan holmes
Could be.
Could be.
Might not never end.
dan friesen
Yeah, a lot of fun.
So we'll get down to business on this, but first, let's take a little moment to say hello to some new wonks.
jordan holmes
That's a great idea.
dan friesen
So first, Chloe from Alaska.
Thank you so much.
You're an Iowa Policy Walk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much.
alex jones
Thank you.
dan friesen
Next, congratulations to Russell, one of the Glasgow wonks who stopped the planned assassination of Jordan on his graduation on Thursday.
Keep up the good fight.
All my love.
Amy, Daisy, and Momo.
Thank you so much.
You're an Iowa Policy Wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
So that's what happened.
jordan holmes
Yes, it was a specific person who canceled the plot against me.
dan friesen
We appreciate it.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it is very nice.
dan friesen
Next, yet another Dr. Jones Big Naturals.
Thank you so much, Uranio Policy Wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much.
I'm going to limit those.
I only just.
dan friesen
I'm sure.
I'm sure you're flooded.
jordan holmes
I need to limit those, yeah.
dan friesen
And Eric L. Thank you so much.
You're an Iowa Policy Wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
Thank you.
And we got a technical credit in the mix, Jordan.
So thank you so much to all caps here.
So imagine me yelling this.
jordan holmes
Is it MF Doom?
dan friesen
No.
But you spell the man's name.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
All caps.
dan friesen
No.
Conspiracy empires burned to the fucking ground.
Eddie, thank you so much.
You are now a technocrat.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
unidentified
Four stars.
alex jones
Go honking on and telling you, brilliant.
Someone, sodomite, sent me a bucket of poop.
Daddy Sharp.
Bomb, Jar Jar Binks has a Caribbean black accent.
unidentified
He's a loser, little, little kitty baby.
alex jones
I don't want to hate black people.
I renounce Jesus Christ.
Thank you so much.
jordan holmes
Oh, man.
I don't want to hate black people.
It's harder now.
dan friesen
Wait, wait till a little bit later in the episode.
So we start off on this Wednesday episode of Alex's with a problem.
There's a problem.
jordan holmes
Oh, no.
dan friesen
There's too much news.
alex jones
We've got a big problem on this July 24th live Wednesday transmission.
There's just too much news, too much incredible stuff to cover.
And it also cleared the slate of most of the guests because I wanted to open up an X spaces for people to comment on the state of the world.
And 11 days after the Timothy assassination of Trump and Biden stepping down, set to give a speech tonight.
We'll have live coverage here with Owen Schroyer.
dan friesen
Yeah, it's got so much big news that I've canceled all of our guests so everyone can talk shit.
jordan holmes
Listen, 99.999% of the time when he says there's too much news, I disagree with him.
But right now, I honestly think there might be too much news.
dan friesen
There is so much going on.
jordan holmes
Everybody needs to slow it down.
dan friesen
And so little that he brings to the table in terms of those new stories.
jordan holmes
Infuriating.
dan friesen
Yeah.
But it is strange to just like, you know, you hear that and you're like, it's been 11 days since the attempted assassination.
jordan holmes
It's been 7,000 years.
It isn't.
There have been three Cleopatra's born and dead in the meantime.
Empires have risen and fallen in the past 7,000 years or since last Tuesday or whatever.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Ugh, man.
jordan holmes
Fucking insane.
dan friesen
So yeah, we're just going to just kick all the guests out and talk to people on Twitter.
This is going to be a good idea.
jordan holmes
Different people rewrote Ozimandius in the meantime.
Like, oh, hey, just a reminder, guys, not going to take it with you.
dan friesen
Well, and here we are.
So Kamala Harris is the presumptive nominee for the Democrat Party.
And the media is set on gaslighting you about it.
alex jones
Amazing levels of rewriting history and 1984 level gaslighting where there's running headlines everywhere fact-checking.
Kamala Harris was never a border czar.
She was never in charge of the border.
It's a right-wing line.
Now, that's like saying the river that runs through by Virginia and Maryland is not the Potomac.
It's like saying the Grand Canyon is not in Arizona.
It's like saying the Statue of Liberty isn't on Staten Island.
I mean, it's just, I mean, even the dumbest person has to know that she was the border czar for the last three and a half years.
And we have the articles and videos, him announcing her, press conferences, and they're just like, it's not true.
unidentified
It's all lies.
alex jones
Right-wing evil.
The corporate media knows people don't believe him anymore.
They just culture jam to create confusion.
dan friesen
Yeah, it's just culture jamming.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
So there's a slight game being played here because the term czar is not really an official title in the government.
Presidents often delegate certain areas of policy to a particular official, and then the media will take to calling them things like the climate czar or energy czar.
In this case, it is true that Biden chose Harris to be the point person on migration issues back when they were first elected in 2021.
And you could make an argument that therefore she would be the border czar or something.
It's not accurate to what she was responsible for, given that her role was more about the larger issue than just the border, but it would also be a little bit inaccurate to pretend that there's no basis for this title.
Sure.
It's not an official title, and it's generally been used as a catchphrase to attack Kamala Harris since.
For instance, in February 2022, Texas Representative Ronnie Jackson tried to pass the Border Czar Accountability Act, which would make Harris visit the border every 60 days, along with a number of other requirements that he wanted to impose.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that'd be fun.
dan friesen
Anyone who watched the RNC would notice that they were largely animated by a fear and hatred of immigrants with signs and chance of send them back making frequent appearances.
One of the clear elements of this messaging was that many of the speakers complained about Kamala Harris, specifically calling her the quote border czar.
This was an effort in branding, and it's pretty easy to see through, and that's why it's so important to someone like Alex.
After the RNC, there were articles and outlets like Vox that were explaining this very clear and transparent GOP messaging campaign and how it's not really accurate.
The Vox sub-headline for their article is, quote, no, Kamala Harris is not the border czar, but that doesn't matter to Republicans.
The article was attempting to explain that the HHS and DHS have responsibility for the border, whereas Harris's mission was more about diplomacy and the underlying causes of migration.
But with a headline like this, it's easy for Alex to pretend that the media is just gaslighting everybody and pretending that she had no involvement with border issues or whatever.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, I would say that's, yeah, that's on them.
Yeah, I think Vox fucked up on this one, and I think the media should probably be a little bit more careful about using words.
Tsar might not have been an appropriate word for democracy to use.
dan friesen
I think there's criticism to go in both directions.
But also, this czar terminology goes back a bit further than you think.
Sure.
Like, I remember it being a hot topic of conversation with the Bush administration.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely.
dan friesen
But it predates that considerably.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
So, like, I thought it was maybe more of a newer terminology.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
But it's not really.
I think, I think, yeah.
I would say the criticism is be a little more careful.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
I mean, that's what I'm saying.
Like, that's, that's, that's the thing about it, though.
It is that it was germinated, I'm certain for expedience, uh, a little bit of flavor.
dan friesen
Sounds like a fun word.
jordan holmes
Adding a little bit of touch to that, a little bit of imagery.
I like it.
I think it's great.
But then, you know, 50 years later, we're saddled with people like Alex rightfully using the word czar to kind of be a dick.
Like, you should have fucking thought about that.
Now, it's not your fault.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
People from the 40s.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
You were fighting a war.
dan friesen
Well, see, the issue is that, like, there's a nuance to reality.
And Alex is ignoring that in order to make his complaint.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I mean, if you're not reading a Vox article, then you see an Alex headline, then, yeah, I mean.
dan friesen
Like, these articles aren't saying that Harris had no involvement or it wasn't delegated to her.
Migration issues were in her portfolio.
Sure, sure, sure.
That's not what people are claiming.
No.
They're arguing that this border czar title is a right-wing attack.
Right.
That's very clear.
alex jones
Oh, yeah.
dan friesen
And so there's problems on messaging on both sides of this one, I think.
jordan holmes
I'm not stoked about anybody's work lately.
dan friesen
But I think Alex is worse.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I agree.
dan friesen
It's obvious when he starts talking about it.
jordan holmes
Doing this?
No.
alex jones
I remember the last five years of her on the radar.
You know, when she was running for president and then was picked as the VP and then they stole the election almost four years ago.
But now that people are putting a spotlight back on her, it reminded me she's even worse than I thought.
I mean, she's such an evil, stupid person at the same time, cackling witch and totally fake in every way that it's really hard to even try to grasp it.
I've got more than 20 clips here of her making an absolute fool of herself, and there's just hundreds more.
My eyes were bleeding this morning sending these to the crew.
Just clip after clip after clip after clip after clip of the most insane crap you've ever witnessed.
And then they're spinning it that she is the she's black and the Republican leadership's like, what's making about the fact that she's a diversity hire?
Because I mean, there's plenty of black women that could be present.
They're smart, but this lady certainly isn't black.
And she certainly isn't smart.
dan friesen
Okay, so here we are.
I feel like there's a lot of ways that you could probably attack Harris in terms of, you know, there's some policy disagreements you can have and shit like that, but this is just unhinged racism.
jordan holmes
Hey, I mean, let's face it, I'm just not going to be in an 1850s market with people in Louisiana being like, oh, I don't like those.
You know, no, not going to happen.
I'm not doing it.
dan friesen
It's shocking.
And Alex says that he's like, his eyes were bleeding watching these clips.
He ends up playing a number of clips where she's making complete sense.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And she seems like a pretty smart and thoughtful person.
It's just, I don't know.
If this is where we're going, this is thin.
And I think one of the issues is that the right wing largely operates a lot of this media ecosystem relies on memes and trying to elicit reaction from people.
And I think that there has been a lot of people who have made some pretty fun memes about Harris.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
And I think that that's threatening to people like Alex.
jordan holmes
Oh, I hadn't considered that.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
That hadn't occurred to me that people would care.
That's bananas.
dan friesen
I think that's legitimately terrifying that there's like coconut memes and stuff like that going around.
I think that that is something that Alex can't combat.
jordan holmes
Finally.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Finally, they are.
Hey, listen, when they go low, you go fucking lower, man.
You go coconut low.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
You go loc is what you do.
dan friesen
When they go meme, you go meme.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
dan friesen
And then Alex's response to that is, oh, they're going meme.
I better go racist as shit.
jordan holmes
Better call her a word.
dan friesen
So Biden dropped out.
But maybe he was forced to.
alex jones
And you're also welcome to call in or be a speaker on X about Kamala, Biden disappearing.
Now Report Lee's going to officially drop out of the race in the speech tonight.
Not just that letter that wasn't even on the letterhead and wasn't even his signature.
Looks like they pulled a dirty trick on him while he was drugged up or something coming back from Vegas, which they meant was a medical emergency.
While he was drugged up for a few days, went ahead and said, C, sorry, you already resigned.
No getting out of this now.
And now they're all just trying to, reportedly, they meant he's been super mad throwing fetch.
Then after six days, he emerges stumbling around.
We've got the video of that coming up.
And they say, you know, why did you drop out?
He goes, ha ha, yeah.
Like, yeah, I didn't drop out.
So just absolutely insane.
dan friesen
This is wild stuff.
What we've got going on in the world is they drugged him up, and then they hacked his Twitter.
They got on his Twitter.
They put out this statement.
He wakes up, and they're like, hey, you dropped out.
jordan holmes
What?
Yeah, yeah.
See, actually, here's what's crazy about that.
I think that is a great point.
Is that part of the reason that he did drop out is because if he was 55, nobody would be like, oh, if he was asleep for too long, you might be able to lie him into resigning from the United States office of president.
dan friesen
I don't know if that makes it any more believable.
jordan holmes
I'm just saying if you're 81, I'd be more likely, more likely.
I'm not saying it happened because it didn't happen.
That's not close to how it worked.
He's fine.
He's still the president.
dan friesen
This could be the inciting incident of like a really interesting Bullworth type movie where you're a president and maybe you're a little bit too threatening to the establishment or something like that.
And so they drug you and then announce that you're not running for re-election and you now have to deal with like, I didn't post that.
What are you going to do?
Or maybe you take the threatening to the establishment part out of that time that you're still president, you now make it your mission to do the most good possible because you're not going to get that re-election.
jordan holmes
I like that.
I like that.
Now that you've got nothing, you've got nothing to lose.
dan friesen
Exactly.
jordan holmes
You can brew Biden's billions.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
And of course, the tension is that by the time the election comes, the American public loves you so much that demanding.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you have to be.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Let me throw this out at you.
Presidento.
All right.
It's a president who can only remember the past minute.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
And then we film it backwards.
dan friesen
Tattoos.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
I get it.
I think that's what I'm saying.
jordan holmes
What's up for everyone tattooed on his shoulder?
dan friesen
Trump's not cool.
jordan holmes
I like that.
I like that.
dan friesen
Call people Jack.
jordan holmes
I think the American people could all get behind that as a president.
dan friesen
Yep.
So Alex talks a little bit about his business issues in this next clip.
And it appears that I think things are evolving a little bit.
alex jones
What we do have plenty of, and it's great products, is a private label line that's called InfoWars MD.
I learned two years ago.
That's a lot of pain suppliers of raw materials.
Our sub-supplier, one of our manufacturers, was listeners and patriots.
And I called the owner.
It's a billion-dollar company, one of the major makers.
They said, listen, our whole line is yours.
We just don't want to get in the middle of it politically, so just don't say our name.
We will let you private label all of this drop shipped out of their warehouse with like one-day service.
You know, you order it, it ships in like a day or two, depending on the day.
You order on a Saturday, it doesn't ship on Sunday.
And it's the exact same tumor that's in bodies.
Just to give you an example, they had the nitric boost was their product.
And we said, well, we can fund ourselves if we can go make that somewhere else.
They said, sure, just have the product.
It's how nice they work.
So we went and made that.
But all they do is tack three to $4 on every order.
And it's bottled.
They put our label on it, everything.
So we've got our costs.
They get their three to four bucks.
And then we put a markup on it so we can fund ourselves.
So you're literally getting a top-of-the-line supplement line.
I mean, they've got over 100 products.
So I think we've probably labeled 15 or so.
Their joint relief is amazing.
Their prostate support is amazing.
Their nerve renew is amazing.
Their good night sleep is amazing.
Their ashwagandha products are amazing.
It's Infowars MD, private labeled, and they got plenty of it.
dan friesen
So if you've paid attention to Alex's show, you'll know that he gets the nitric boost from Judy Mikovitz's company.
And they discussed that the last time that she was on the show.
I probably wouldn't even remember that except for those commercials that Alex had where he's talking about nitric boost giving him painful erections.
jordan holmes
She's allowed to have a company?
dan friesen
Yeah, but I think that she just gets it from another supplier, too.
I think she has probably her own sort of private labeling thing that all goes down.
There's a root of this, some company that they're both getting it from, I think.
jordan holmes
But you know what?
I like, I just like how above board everything is.
unidentified
Sure.
Yeah.
dan friesen
Yeah.
It's real cool.
Yeah.
So she obviously doesn't have her own supplement lab and industry and stuff.
She just uses her high profile to sell other people's supplements.
And it appears that one of those companies that she works with is now letting Alex private label their shit by slapping a cheap-looking Infowars MD logo on it and giving Alex a cut.
This is part of Alex's very overt strategy to navigate the fallout of the Sandy Hook cases and stay rich.
Dr. Jones Naturals exist so that no matter what, Alex will have a supplement business run by a family member that's outside the reach of collections and can sponsor any business that he starts next.
In the same way that Alex got his first radio show because his dad's dental business promised the station to buy ad time, Alex will get his last radio show because his dad's fake pill business is buying all of the ad time.
The private labeling thing is a secondary part of the strategy, which is aimed a bit towards the possibility of staying on air with Infowars as a brand intact.
The arrangement here is pure profit for Alex because the other company is doing all the production and shipping, so there's zero overhead.
Alex just promotes this shit, directs people to buy it, and then gets a percentage.
The game here is to put money into InfoWars because Alex is personally in bankruptcy and he's going to have to sell the company.
If he wants to have any chance of attracting anyone to buy it, he needs to make it look like a profitable business.
If there isn't the appearance that it's a sustainable business, there's no real argument for someone to buy it.
And there's a stronger argument to liquidate the whole thing and then just walk away from it.
So here he doesn't have to have his InfoWars life or InfoWars health as businesses that have some exposure.
There's just like you could do the whole supplement thing and we'll take a cut of it and we'll make it look like Infowars is super profitable.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I've made my peace with it.
I've made my peace with like he's never going to face consequences for this and that's just how we live.
Like I once I moved past the like, maybe, nope, it's not going to happen.
Let it go.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
That's the best way to do it.
dan friesen
I think that the best you can do is descriptively understand what's happening and be like, look at this shit.
jordan holmes
Oh, no.
You guys all did a great job.
dan friesen
And hope that something happens eventually.
jordan holmes
I hope everybody involved feels very proud of themselves.
dan friesen
So what do you think when you see a turtle?
jordan holmes
Oh my god, I want to live with it and become best friends with it and then shrink down and build a little house on the back.
dan friesen
I think about Dana Carvey's movie, Master of Disguise.
jordan holmes
That's another one.
dan friesen
When he goes to the Turtle Club.
jordan holmes
Mitch McConnell, of course.
unidentified
Sure.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Alex sees determination.
alex jones
I want to go back a few photos.
The one where Trump looks like a turtle and he's got his bottom lip up over his mouth.
Go back to the beginning of the photos.
That's the face I make when I'm really pissed off and determined.
That face right there.
If you see me coming at you with that face, you know you got a problem.
And that is the face of total determination.
I've seen a lot of other men in really serious situations.
That's the face you make.
Yeah, that face right there, that's the real face of determination.
Anytime you get in a fight with somebody and they got that look on their face, that means somebody switched on for war.
dan friesen
Yeah, they've channeled the turtle, the inner turtle.
And it's terrifying.
That's what real fear and determination looks like.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I get it.
Fine.
Which turtle were you?
Which teenage mutant ninja turtle were you?
dan friesen
I was Donatello.
jordan holmes
You were Donatello.
Obviously.
I went back and forth between Donatello and Michelangelo.
That's the story of my life.
dan friesen
That's what a person with bipolar is.
jordan holmes
That's about his, that's about his, yeah.
Yeah.
dan friesen
Or maybe that's Raphael, then, because he was more chaotic, right?
jordan holmes
Sure, sure.
But I don't think I was, I don't think I was angry in the right way to identify with Raphael.
You know, I was angry at all kinds of other stuff, whereas Raphael's anger was, you know, kind of justified in a lot of different ways.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
He didn't ask to be an anthropomorphic turtle that can do ninjutsu.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
So, you know.
dan friesen
I was no Leonardo.
I know that.
Sure.
I've never been to Leonardo.
Sure.
And I, I, you know, everyone, when you're a kid, you want to be Michelangelo because he's cool.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
But I wasn't Michelangelo.
jordan holmes
Oh, man.
I pulled off Michelangelo.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
You surfer.
jordan holmes
I'm sorry.
dan friesen
So look, those are friendly turtles, as long as you're a good guy.
jordan holmes
They were tubular.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Yeah.
If you come bearing pizza, you have nothing to worry about.
But the turtle face, if you see it on a human, you're in trouble.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
So Alex can't find this picture, or at least the staff can.
And it really pisses Alex off.
And maybe he starts making a turtle face at the staff.
alex jones
Great.
And go back to the earlier photo, too.
It's even better when we're making him the turtle face.
unidentified
Even better.
alex jones
And I say that because you got the turtle with the lower jaw kind of up over it.
Just roll through that again.
I've got to see it.
Roll through the same images you were just showing.
It comes up right after this.
This is the face right here coming up.
You're on X.
Yeah, maybe you're doing different images.
Yeah, it's the one, it's the straight shot of him.
It's the classic shot.
The one that everybody has.
Well, we'll get it.
We'll have it.
But I digress here, ladies and gentlemen.
This is such a historic time, and what unfolded here is so historic.
And the globalists are never going to be able to put the genie back in the bottle.
jordan holmes
Out of said shell.
alex jones
Later in the show, I'll find the image I want.
We're going to just probably leave it up the entire show.
I think I'll just leave the image up.
I have to go to rebroadcast.
I have to get the club.
I have to get the image.
I'm not mad.
I'm just going to have to have it now.
I didn't used to be OCD, but at 50, I'm so OCD now about the classic fight-fight-fight with them all around him and him up out of them.
And he's like this.
That's the one.
We've kind of got the shot, but we don't have the shot here on fun right now.
Yeah, that's it.
That's the shot right there.
That right there is determination.
dan friesen
That's the turtle face.
jordan holmes
All right.
There's only one shot of determination on a turtle's face.
I ever saw.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
All right.
Secrets of the Ewes.
unidentified
All right.
jordan holmes
Do you remember the Snapping Turtle?
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
All right.
Now, on the second go-round, the first time you meet them, sure, they're little babies.
And Shredder is pissed off of them.
dan friesen
They're babies.
jordan holmes
But then, you know, he raises them.
unidentified
I also like that Shredder kind of has an emotional attachment to them.
jordan holmes
He doesn't, they don't really explore that.
Like, Shredder's got a softer side.
But then, once he realized, once the snapping turtle realizes that the donuts were a ruse, that's intense.
dan friesen
That's determination.
jordan holmes
That's determination.
Go back and watch that movie.
Eventually, he'll take a donut and they'll find out that it's drugged, and then that turtle is pissed.
dan friesen
That's exactly what Trump looked like.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
dan friesen
I love the idea that Alex is just so pissed they can't find the right picture.
jordan holmes
I am.
dan friesen
There's only one explanation for that, I think, and that is like something about that image makes Alex feel a certain way.
jordan holmes
It has to be.
dan friesen
And once he thinks about feeling that way, he can't move on until he feels that way.
jordan holmes
Because he can't summon feelings through memory.
dan friesen
I think it might be.
jordan holmes
Because all of his feelings are fake.
He requires an external device to make stimulus.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
So he actually has a pretty good idea, if that's the case.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
And that is that he's going to get a tattoo of that turtle face.
jordan holmes
I love that idea.
alex jones
That's the fake.
jordan holmes
I might get it.
alex jones
Like, I've never gotten a tattoo.
jordan holmes
You should.
alex jones
I might get this gigantic across my back.
Because I'm nothing against people with tattoos.
I see a lot of cool ones, a lot of horrible ones.
If I was in the military, I'd probably have some.
But, you know, usually it was like you're a sailor, you're a Marines, why you've got one.
It's kind of become such a fad.
I was kind of like, yeah.
dan friesen
Like your Popeye.
alex jones
But I don't know.
When they bury me six feet under, I think I might want that on my back.
I bet people are already getting it everywhere.
jordan holmes
I bet they bury you face down.
alex jones
You can't do that as a little tattoo.
You can't put that on your arm.
You can't put that on your chest.
You can't put that on your ass like a tramp stamp.
If you're going to do it, it's got to be like a prison tattoo all the way across the shoulders.
You know, I'm really thinking about it because you got to back something like that.
That is never going to go away.
That is never going to be forgotten.
That is over-the-top, powerful, instant, authentic, and real.
dan friesen
11 days after at this point, and most people have moved on.
But here's the thing: I was thinking about this, and you know, like last season of The Wire, everybody sort of fulfilling the roles of the generations before that.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Nixon's tattoo on Roger's back.
jordan holmes
It does feel appropriate.
I suddenly had the image of a turtle tramp stamp, and I think now everybody is really thinking about it.
dan friesen
Trump turtle tramp stamp.
jordan holmes
And then you just, man, that would really fuck you up.
I don't think I'm coming back from that one.
alex jones
Nope.
jordan holmes
I'd look down and be like, no!
dan friesen
Well, it's on your back.
You wouldn't really have to deal with it all.
jordan holmes
Oh, yeah, okay, all right.
Fair enough.
I was thinking about if somebody else got it, and I discovered it too late.
dan friesen
Oh, yes.
Yeah, that would be quite a revelation.
jordan holmes
That would be a fucking day.
That would be a day.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Woof.
So, look, it's all fun to talk about turtle faces, and Alex may be getting a tattoo.
Sure.
But unfortunately, we must dip back into Alex being pretty racist about Kamala Harris.
alex jones
And they're coronating like she's a queen.
Kamala Harris outside of law.
No one voted for her in the primary.
She had 2% when she ran for vice president in the polls.
She was super unpopular.
I mean, the woman is a joke.
And Kamala Harris is as black as I am.
jordan holmes
I've heard that one before.
alex jones
I've had my DNA done.
I don't have any African blood.
I'd be proud of my debt.
I got Native American.
My dad's like 13%.
jordan holmes
Because you were so nice.
alex jones
So I'm basically six point whatever.
But I'm not Native American.
I mean, Pocahontas, the senator, Elizabeth Warren, has none of it in her.
She said she was.
But I'm like 6 point whatever percent.
No African.
Zero.
This woman, maybe her dad had 6% African.
I mean, you take a look at him.
I'd love to see her DNA test.
In fact, people, she's running on that.
She's black.
And, you know, they said if you don't vote for Biden, you ain't black.
I'm surprised Biden didn't say he was black.
Joe Biden is a joke, and we know it.
We got Dr. Stella Emmanuel, who grew up in Africa and is a great doctor and super smart and also a great pastor.
You can look at her.
She's a beautiful lady.
She's 100% African.
She's a black lady.
I'm going to ask her when she's in here.
Is Kamala Harris black?
Stella?
Dr. Stella, is she black?
That's a black woman.
This woman is not even a term my black buddies used growing up in Dallas about all the girls that were part, why they uh, yellowbone stuff like that.
What was the other names?
Uh, had a lot of names, but the point is is that Kamala Harris is not even a a yellowbone.
Kamala Harris maximum, maximum is six percent black, holy shit.
dan friesen
I mean this is.
This is just uh beyond uh, any kind of lie.
jordan holmes
I'm not like gonna get in a plane or like a train or get in my car, but if he was in my physical space saying this, I have to fight him.
Like do you know what I mean?
dan friesen
Like this is this definitely, it's definitely not something that you hear and it's like, ha ha, now let's argue because and I'm not saying you have to hit him or anything like that you can walk away.
There is no rational response to this.
That's you're, that's true, and you're trying to litigate uh, whether or not someone else is black enough.
Nope um, I think that I think that you're already in territory where it's like there's no point.
There's no point here.
All we can do is just look at this and say, fuck you yep, this is racist garbage and it.
That's where it's coming from inside you.
jordan holmes
Yeah um yeah no, that's, that's exactly what i'm saying.
Like that is, that is the ultimate, like here's a boundary we are with, there's no going back.
Yeah, so i'll walk away, i'm fine, I don't live.
I don't live in Austin.
dan friesen
If you want to talk like that to your friends I, I can't stop you, but stay away from me, you know, because if you say that in my space we got to go yeah, we got to go man it's, it's not a good sign, no of of like where we are um, but I think that when you mix this stuff because it is very clearly like, oh okay, Alex is mad, um about uh, a black person running for office yes, and so he's,
he's lashing out in this way, but you still have to sort of root it in some sort of intellectualizing right.
I mean, he should Just get up there and yell the N-word over and over and over again.
He has to try and play some clips of her and be like, look at this idiot.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Right.
And so he does, but she sounds smart.
unidentified
Alexandria Okasio-Cortez's new darling of the party.
She officially has more Twitter followers than Nancy Pelosi.
She's on 60 Minutes this weekend, proudly calling herself a radical.
And she's promoting policies like saying that every single carbon emission in the country, every car, should be eliminated within the next 11 years, everything from a 70 to 80% tax rate.
Do you agree that she could possibly, in this ideology of the socialist left, could splinter your party?
kamala harris
No, you know, I think that she is challenging the status quo.
I think that's fantastic.
I think that, you know, I used to teach before, especially before in the last few years.
And the thing that I always loved about teaching was when you teach, it requires you to defend the premise.
And it requires you to re-examine the premise and question: is it still relevant?
Does it have impact?
Does it have meaning?
And I think that she is introducing bold ideas that should be discussed.
alex jones
Buses go here, buses go there.
That's what buses do.
That's an actual quote.
Here she is saying she wants to restrict your meat consumption.
Whatever the new world order wants, she's going to put it out.
She's a perfect puppet.
dan friesen
His characterization of this bus meme that he saw is the way that he's able to try and make her sound dumb.
But what he just played was an incredibly thoughtful, intelligent.
It's an articulation of how important it is to have ideas that challenge your own ideas and how that can keep you growing.
Sure.
Basically.
It's a clip that's very appealing as a public figure, I think.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
I mean, it is essentially a reasonable response to like, hey, listen, the fires of youth, great.
You know, turn into the tempered steel of adulthood.
That's what we're talking about.
But you know what?
The kids win in the end, so I might as well, you know, adapt.
I get it.
dan friesen
But this is a clip that Alex is choosing to play in order to paint Kamala Harris in a way of being stupid.
alex jones
Yeah.
dan friesen
And it's smarter than almost anything that's been played on his show ever.
alex jones
I'm confused.
dan friesen
Anything that he says.
jordan holmes
I'm super confused as to what the bus meme is that would make sense of what he of trying to play this clip as like a negative.
dan friesen
I think he just doesn't have that much ammunition.
And so he's just going to play something that sounds smart and insist that it's dumb.
jordan holmes
Who found this and then just told Alexander?
It does feel like a chase.
It does feel like a chase clip being like, see, she likes young people.
Okay.
dan friesen
So we get some callers from Twitter and from the phones.
Alex takes both.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
And one person believes that there was a conspiracy with Trump's assassination.
alex jones
Hell yeah.
unidentified
I also wanted to say something else about the shooter.
I believe just like that movie shooter, actually, that guy was set up and he didn't fire one shot.
I think I couldn't put when the guy, the officer went up to check on him, that was a bad actor.
And he was making sure to come back.
alex jones
Let me stop you.
Saturday, 11 days ago, I thought of that.
Mark Wahlberg, great movie, The Shooter, how they try to set him up as a shooter.
That's what I thought.
And Dude's put it together right now.
We have all the videos where the guy's wearing pants and the guy that shoots wearing shorts.
We're getting together right now.
This is a big deal.
This is not adding up.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
I think the kid got set up.
They pumped him up in some sort of secret thing.
They said, you got to be protecting the president.
You know what it means?
He wasn't even looking towards the president.
alex jones
They wouldn't have that banana even looking towards him.
jordan holmes
He was just set up, man.
alex jones
That's what I believe to be true.
Well, definitely it's a stand down and nobody's buying it.
That's the good news.
dan friesen
That's great news.
See, yeah, I guess because there's maybe a picture of someone wearing pants and then shorts, the Mark Wahlberg movie The Shooter is predictive programming for this.
jordan holmes
You know, this did get me thinking, right, about all the presidents who've been assassinated, which is like five?
I want to say it's like five.
unidentified
Sure.
jordan holmes
If you count.
dan friesen
Sounds about right.
jordan holmes
If you count the flu after not healing, right?
Something like that.
All the successful ones, close range.
Close range, right?
That's why the JFK assassination is so conspiracy theoryable is because it was a distance, right?
So here's the idea.
If you are just an amateur asshole, close up.
You can't fire from distance.
If you fire from distance, that's professional shot, right?
So in this regard, almost the best evidence that it's not a conspiracy is the distance means he missed.
If it was like an actual thing, how could you miss?
dan friesen
Well, here's the thing.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
It's impossible to put on pants.
jordan holmes
I actually do buy that.
dan friesen
Yeah.
I don't even know what evidence Alex is pointing to here with shorts and pants, but like my mind just hears that it's like, yeah, you could have shorts on under your pants.
So you could put on, it doesn't seem like a persuasive piece of evidence about anything.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Even if like every element of what he's saying is like, this doesn't rise to the level of the compelling anomaly that he's got here.
But yeah, so anyway, it's the Mark Wahlberg movie.
That's what we're living through.
We're living through this 2007 movie.
jordan holmes
Here's what I find fascinating.
Here's the other thing that I find fascinating.
All right.
So you hear reports Googling JFK assassination.
Sure.
Again, another sign that they're amateur.
dan friesen
The news that came out, the shooter head googled how far was Oswald.
jordan holmes
Sure, sure, sure.
A sign of an amateur, right?
Because if you're a historian, the one thing you know about all of the failed assassination attempts towards presidents, all of them, all of the failed ones, too hot.
Too hot.
Guns jammed.
Slippery sweat.
All of them failed for that reason almost entirely.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
That's the trick.
dan friesen
Interesting.
jordan holmes
So what did he do?
If he had just learned about American history, he doesn't need to have a Google search results.
He just knows that it's too hot.
dan friesen
Alaska.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
You got to find pros go.
jordan holmes
Find a cool, temperate zone, my man.
Don't go to the trap.
dan friesen
So we've got, like I said, we've got these callers.
Share these Twitter people.
And if we've got a Twitter space, that means it's time for Chase.
alex jones
Yeah.
dan friesen
I'm a little worried that Chase Geyser is getting overexposed on our show.
jordan holmes
It does feel like we're giving him a lot more attention than maybe.
I think we've just had so many dark spots and the news is so fast that it just feels like this is a respite.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And, you know, there's always something nice about bonding.
alex jones
Sure.
dan friesen
There's something compelling about seeing bonding.
Yeah.
And I think that that's really what this, the itch that this scratch is.
alex jones
20 seconds to break.
How epic is this town to be alive?
chase geiser
Oh, it's so epic.
And I got a feeling that we're going to see Kamala Harris as president of the United States before the election.
And I don't think she's going to be the candidate.
alex jones
Yeah, so the 25th Amendment Biden.
And then.
chase geiser
Yeah, or he dies of natural causes, or God forbid, you know, they kill him.
Obviously, no violence wanted to come to him, but this is, we're going to, this is, it hasn't even begun to be crazy yet.
alex jones
Exactly.
I agree with you.
Crazy town has just begun, and we were supposed to be off the air by now, but we're still here, buddy.
All right.
Yeah.
dan friesen
When they go out to break.
jordan holmes
I've made peace.
I am beyond.
This is a thing.
You know, I'm a generally emotionally reactive fella.
And this one, I've just let go.
dan friesen
It's kind of, you know, I think that a chill response is kind of understandable.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Because, I mean, I hate them.
I hate what they stand for.
I think their political ideas are trash.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
But there is a feeling of actual, like, they like each other that you don't get necessarily from a lot of these other Alex and Owen.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Whenever they would be in studio together, there's a tension.
There's a hostility.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
That's definitely true.
dan friesen
You know, there's a dynamic of his son.
Well, Owen's doing it a lot of the time, especially early on, Owen's doing an impression of Alex, trying to be the next Alex.
jordan holmes
Which is how you make your dad disappointed in you.
dan friesen
Right.
So that never really felt that great.
Nope.
This just feels like humans bonding.
jordan holmes
I meant specifically them gloat laughing over the fact that they're still on air.
Oh.
That, again, I've let that go.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
But it is nice that they're kind of, I don't know.
dan friesen
I don't think heavy air quotes on air.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that is a really good point.
That is a good point.
dan friesen
It's not like he's on network TV and he hasn't gotten canceled despite the odds.
jordan holmes
True, true.
But it's never good to hear a gloat laugh.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
It's never good to hear a gloat laugh, especially in this circumstance.
dan friesen
That's true.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
That's true.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
So they go out to break with their gloat laugh.
Sure.
And then they come back.
alex jones
All right.
I want to play the trailer from Mark Wahlberg, who we know is a patriot conservative.
I don't care that he's a great actor or like his movies, but we know he's a patriot.
People have been around him is what he does.
But the shooter is such an important movie to watch.
And I'm glad that the callers brought that up.
And we'll go to a bunch of spaces, speakers here in a moment.
But man, this movie is all you need to know about how they set stuff up.
Here it is.
dan friesen
Yeah, so apparently Mark Wahlberg is a patriot.
jordan holmes
All right.
Here's a pitch.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Being John Malkovich.
All right.
Exactly like that.
But being Mark Wahlberg, and you immediately like time warp into 9-11, and he's on one of the flights, right?
Then becomes a hero for all of this stuff and a patriot.
And then that's your movie.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
What's Mark Wahlberg's life like if Wahlberg is never happens because it's, uh, I would, I would take this at a completely different direction.
dan friesen
Sure.
I would say that Mark Wahlberg goes back in time and decides not to commit that hate crime.
alex jones
Sure.
dan friesen
And then we flash forward to the president, and Alex doesn't say this shit about it being a great patriot.
I think maybe that's more what Alex is talking about.
jordan holmes
I think you might win this one.
Yeah.
dan friesen
So he gets a guy on Twitter who's coming in, has a really interesting question about Trump choosing JD Vance as his running mate.
dennis hendrickson
Yeah, I'm having trouble really wrapping my head around.
Could very well be that this was a deep state plot, but it's also, I'm thinking that it could be just blatant incompetence by the Secret Service and that this has been going on for a long time and that they've been Swiss cheese for a while and finally this guy got through the hole.
And the thing that I guess I'm confused on and haven't really heard many people give an explanation for is why Trump, of all people that he could have picked for a VP, decides to go with an anti-Trumper in JD Vance who has a background with Silicon Valley and Peter Thiel and Palantir with government contracts and the like.
And then he goes and disavows all of the Trump loyalists from 2016 that were part of the Heritage Foundation in Project 2025.
So I'm concerned because the rhetoric is definitely not the same with the RNC this year than it was in 2016 with Trump.
And I'm afraid that he's getting sort of enveloped in the deep state itself right now with even Tucker Carlson.
Tucker Carlson texted, this was in, I think it was an AP article.
He had texted during the Dominion Voting Systems trial through Discovery how much of a Trump hater he was there too.
And now all of a sudden these guys are Trump fans, and it seems to me that it's more because it's politically convenient for them now.
alex jones
There's also text messages where he says, I love Trump, but I hate him.
I mean, that's like I've said to a personal text, God, Trump, he makes me really mad when he was pushing warp speed or whatever.
And Tucker's addressed that.
JD Vance, six, seven, eight years ago, did criticize Trump, but since then it's made all the right moves.
That's Trump's decision.
They don't like JD Vance's choice.
All we've got's Trump right now.
But I think what you bring up are legitimate issues, but I don't think there's any way you stage a shooting where it shoots through his ear.
I mean, you're not, you don't think that was a stage shooting, do you?
dennis hendrickson
No, I do not think that was a stage shooting.
dan friesen
It's a little bit of a strange response because this guy's bringing up some pretty decent criticisms within the conspiracy world.
He has the right position.
You should be distrustful of this move by Trump.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
And it should be disillusioning a little bit to the fantasy narratives that are floating and animate Alex's entire purpose.
jordan holmes
100%.
dan friesen
But yeah, that's why Alex doesn't engage with it.
It's because this guy is, you know, in the same way that people are, when David Icke is like, you shouldn't like Elon Musk.
That's the correct conspiracy position.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
This guy is right that you should be turning on Trump right about now.
Yeah.
It's going to be a little bit late after the election.
You need to make your move now.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Here's what I say Trump should do.
All right.
Because the Vance pick was a bad pick, but that's not the point.
The point is any pick would have been a bad pick.
Trump is the reality TV show president.
You have a reality TV show to pick the vice president.
What are we doing?
dan friesen
That would have been interesting.
jordan holmes
We have six candidates.
They compete in a bunch of physical challenges.
Who can steal the most from babies?
All of these things that are normal for Republican politicians.
Then they pick the final one.
Wouldn't be Vance.
Well, here's not very quick.
dan friesen
I have often said that reality television, and especially like Survivor, is quickly deteriorating to the point where one of the challenges should be, give me your blood.
Give me a cup of your blood.
I don't care how you do it.
Here's a cup.
unidentified
Give it to me.
jordan holmes
Give me your blood.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
And so that would be, like, I would love to see the RNC at the end of it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He just has Kid Rock and Hulk Hogan scratch holes in their body trying to squeeze out three ounces of blood first.
You're my VP.
jordan holmes
Here's what I say.
I say, I love your idea, but let's make it.
Because listen, that's just too violent to show on TV.
All right.
We have a blood drive-off.
dan friesen
All right.
jordan holmes
They both have the IVs hooked up there.
They got to squeeze trying who gets the blood out fast enough.
dan friesen
That just comes down to like hydration, though, doesn't it?
jordan holmes
I genuinely do not have any clue what that comes down to at all.
dan friesen
Probably not just hydration.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
I don't know.
That, I think, gets away from what I'm talking about, about the darkness and ugliness of reality.
jordan holmes
I get what you're saying.
I get you saying.
I'm trying to punch it up for the middle.
dan friesen
So let's hear some of Tucker's texts.
jordan holmes
Yes, I do.
dan friesen
So on January 4th, 2021, just two days before Trump's fans stormed the Capitol, Tucker texted, quote, we are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights.
I truly can't wait.
I hate him passionately.
I can't handle much more of this.
After January 6th, Tucker said to his producer of Trump, quote, he's a demonic force, a destroyer, but he's not going to destroy us.
I've been thinking about this every day for four years.
In another text, he discussed the Trump presidency saying, quote, we're all pretending we've got a lot to show for it because admitting what a disaster it's been is too tough to digest.
But come on, there isn't really an upside to Trump.
In a text to his producer just after the 2020 election, Tucker said of Trump's business ventures, quote, all of them fail.
What he's good at is destroying things.
He's the undisputed world champion of that.
So anyway, I think he's a cynical fuck who knows exactly what he's doing, and now his brand is pivoted into this weird, there's a spiritual battle going on.
I see demons kind of nonsense.
He knows behind all of that, what he's doing.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I doubt there's really going to be another football league to compete with the NFL, specifically because of Trump.
dan friesen
True.
jordan holmes
So there you go.
dan friesen
True.
That was in another one of Tucker's texts.
Complaining about competition with the NFL.
jordan holmes
Yeah, they shouldn't have a monopoly.
dan friesen
What are you going to do?
So that guy didn't think that the Trump assassination was staged.
Sure.
But that was the way that Alex distracted away from his point about J.D. Van.
jordan holmes
Very good points about J.D. Vane.
dan friesen
And then we get another caller who does think that the whole thing was staged.
jordan holmes
Give it to me.
unidentified
Let's talk about Donald Trump, and let's talk about this shooting.
First of all, you've got to know history of Donald Trump, and this goes all the way back into the 90s.
So you know Donald Trump for being rich.
You know him for being an elite.
You know him for being in real estate.
You know him for being a reality TV star.
You know him for doing WWE wrestling.
You know him for fake news.
You know him by their fruits.
After the shooting happened, who became his spokesperson?
Hulk Hogan on TV.
alex jones
Oh, my God.
I've been in movies.
People say I'm fake because I was in a movie and played a part.
jordan holmes
I think you're fake for that.
alex jones
I'll come back to you, but this is just BS.
They tried to kill him legitimately.
Hulk Hogan's a great guy.
dan friesen
Hulk Hogan's a good guy.
Also, flash back in time and see if Hulk Hogan stops himself from talking about how mad he would be if his daughter dated a black guy.
And see if Alex still thinks he's a great dude.
Yeah.
Probably not.
I think maybe there's a trend between some of this stuff.
But I think that it is interesting that Alex responds with like almost he's offended by the suggestion that something could be fake.
The cornerstone of his career is saying that things were fake for way less evidence than what this guy is saying.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, I appreciate just the really staggering list of large-scale lies that you can put together for Trump.
And I can think of like 50 more that maybe I would put higher.
dan friesen
True, true.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
I still don't think any of it rationally justifies thinking that it was a faked assassination attempt.
No, no, no, no.
But you can understand when you're in the world of Alex and everything is faked and everything is a conspiracy around every corner.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
That list of lies and shit should make Alex be like, this would be perfect to be faked.
But he's not because he's strategic about this shit.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And it's all just a narrative crutch.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it does like, okay.
So, I mean, the guy's point is fairly simple and straightforward, and I agree with it, right?
So if you have the most honest politician in the world that gets shot, you're like, well, that probably wasn't staged.
But if you have the most dishonest politician in the world, you're like, big old piece of shit.
It's more likely that this is staged than the most honest person in the world.
dan friesen
Big old piece of shit liar who's known for working in the WWE as a Hall of Famer.
jordan holmes
It does feel as though that would be more ripe for the possibility, if not the suspicion.
dan friesen
Has been stunned.
He's gotten the Stone Cold Stunner.
jordan holmes
I mean, I agree that this could be more likely to be a reasonable supposition.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Still incorrect, but it is far more reasonable than otherwise.
dan friesen
And it makes it silly for this to be Alex's response.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Because he's Alex fucking Jones.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
It's ridiculous.
jordan holmes
Oh, please.
Like, he would fake something so important.
dan friesen
Like, I agree.
I agree with Alex at the end of the day that it is absurd to think that you would fake this.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah.
It's a bad idea to fake it because those are real bullets.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
And your brain is there.
dan friesen
He was killed.
Yeah.
It's just absolutely bizarre to imagine that they would do that.
But it's not fair for Alex.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
No.
dan friesen
Just because I agree with the conclusion that it's silly to think this is faked, it's offensive that Alex's response is that.
jordan holmes
I mean, I do appreciate the idea of faking a presidential assassination.
Right.
These guys are like, we're going to fake this, but we're going to use real everything.
And let's.
unidentified
Look, there's a 25-50% chance he goes.
That's so bad.
jordan holmes
We got Tucker's texts.
You know?
dan friesen
And also, let's make sure that the person that we blame this on changes pants.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
It is funny the idea of staging a presidential assassination that could go either way and you're happy.
Like it's a win-win assassination.
Oh, boy.
What a weird world we've chosen to live in.
dan friesen
So Alex tries to respond to this caller.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And I don't think it's, I don't think it's good.
alex jones
Trump's been involved in movies, TV shows, everywhere, did some professional wrestling stuff.
We know when we watch him with Vince McMahon doing a joke piece that's separate.
It's like when the media says, Jones has been in a few movies.
He's an actor.
They play that game.
When I'm an actor in a movie, you know I'm an actor in a movie.
When I'm on this show, it's me.
So the idea that Trump has done some wrestling, and now that Hulk Hogan, who called into the show 10 years ago, and I know as a listener, is now saying, screw this.
This is wrong with Seven America.
It's like this weird thing.
Alex Jones is in the same city as Stratford, some CIA propaganda firm.
And they go, well, that's it.
He's in the town of 2 million.
He works for Stratford.
It's mentally retarded.
And I'm 100% real.
I'm up here calling what's going on.
I'm defending the Republic.
But people do this thing.
Like, oh, it's all staged.
Well, then you're staged.
In fact, I'll go to Garrett in a minute.
But Garrett, I say you're CIA.
I say everybody's bad.
Nobody's good.
You do.
You work for Hulk Hogan.
That is what you say.
Same mindset.
I know Trump.
He's real.
He's not perfect.
He got shot.
The deep state has done all these indictments and all these attacks and done all these things.
So professional wrestling is a super popular thing.
It's Americana.
And so is UFC.
Trump's associated with it all.
I mean, hell, I'm associated with it because I know Joe Rogan forever.
I'm into UFC things you name it.
So my issue here is they don't fake somebody getting shot in the ear.
You can see it.
Real people died there.
And so it's just, to me, preposterous when this is going down and the deep state's definitely against Trump to then say it's staged.
So explain to me.
You mentioned a bunch of stuff.
Oh, he knows Hulk Hogan and he was in movies.
So that means he's whatever.
Explain it to me.
What are you saying Trump did?
Who is he working for?
Do we vote for Joe Biden or do we vote for Kamala Harris?
What are you saying?
unidentified
I say you vote for none of the above and you vote for Jesus Christ and you start telling all the info warriors out there to repent from idol worship and to vote for Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ only because he's the only one that's going to save us from any of this.
alex jones
And you can actor?
unidentified
Yes.
I don't think you're an actor all the time.
I think you might say have some of the truth, but you might not be telling everybody the whole truth.
alex jones
Well, I'm not God.
I appreciate your call.
So I don't know the whole truth.
But I'll assure you, son, that I'm telling what I believe to be the truth.
That is my North Star.
That is what I want to hit.
God, these people don't believe there's good.
dan friesen
They don't believe that there's any good in the universe.
And that's the problem.
jordan holmes
Which is weird because every time they tell me that they don't believe in good, I bring up Trump, Vince McMahon, Hulk Hogan, Dana White.
You know, I just bring up people who are billionaires or at least extremely wealthy and are racists and have, at the very least, violently assaulted women.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Strange.
jordan holmes
Yeah, weird how those are your buds who are good in this world.
dan friesen
Now, there's something interesting going on here with Alex's response to this guy, his response, and then the way Alex just sort of shuts down, kind of.
And that is that Alex's response is not good.
It's just kind of like, hey, you know, when something's fake or whatever.
alex jones
Helpful.
dan friesen
And then this guy, he tries to sort of sell this guy out by being like, hey, what should we do?
Vote for Biden?
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And he gives the answer that no, we should vote for Jesus Christ.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And this is the exact answer Alex should be giving.
jordan holmes
So, I mean, yeah, there's no argument for Alex.
dan friesen
We need to get away from idol worship.
Okay, that's right.
Alex can't argue with that.
jordan holmes
Can't do it.
dan friesen
And then Alex is just kind of like, okay, let's make this personal.
alex jones
Am I fake?
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Yeah.
Son.
First, I'm going to dominionize you and insult you to your face because you're my fan.
Second, I am going to invalidate everything I have ever believed.
dan friesen
The point that you're making, I cannot argue with within my sort of cosmology.
My structure.
And so I will insult you and make this personal as if you're attacking me.
I guess, whatever.
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Good stuff.
dan friesen
When Alex was making a fair amount of money about Sandy Hook and really making a lot of people's lives pretty miserable, one of the reasons that he claimed he did that is because the details didn't match up.
jordan holmes
Oh, I thought it was because he was drunk.
dan friesen
Well, that's a sort of a real-world piece of shit.
jordan holmes
Oh, okay, okay.
dan friesen
But in his mind, there were these details.
There were these anomalies that didn't match up.
And so you would think when you're discussing with a caller about the Trump assassination attempt.
jordan holmes
Details that don't match up.
dan friesen
Details would be so important.
jordan holmes
Like eight bullets fired.
dan friesen
Everything is about these details.
jordan holmes
It's got to be important.
dan friesen
Or maybe it's not.
Maybe you should have jumped to conclusions.
jordan holmes
Oh, really?
unidentified
You know, when Ray was talking about it, he was referring to a car.
He wasn't referring to a van.
So it'd be interesting.
Like, did they ever go to Home Depot and get the cams to see?
alex jones
Sure, sure.
But here's what's happening.
Here's what's happening.
They want us to get all caught up in the minutia.
They wanted to remove Trump.
They had CIA people on TV saying they're going to kill him.
And Chuck Neaschumer and all the rest of them.
And then you've got all the lawfare and all the criminal charges and all the fake trials and trying to take him out the ballot, them saying we're going to kill him.
And then this happens and there's a stand down.
They did it.
98% of the evidence points towards that.
You'd have to override your common sense.
And so now members of Congress and others are saying, we know you tried to kill him.
That freaks the deep state out.
If they know people aren't buying their story, they won't try it again.
That's why I said 11 days ago and I said again today and yesterday, the day before, the day before that, we've got to point out we don't buy any of this.
dan friesen
Yeah, so this is really more, I think, an accurate articulation of what Alex does, which is like, jump to a conclusion.
The details are for rationalizing later.
But what he used to do is pretend that it was detail forward.
He used to pretend that he's sniffing out these conspiracies and getting to the bottom of it and presenting you the evidence.
And now he's just like, come on.
It's so obvious.
jordan holmes
Yeah, but at the beginning of those events, he always has somebody who is like the water or who can test the waters.
He's always got somebody coming in who's like a Wolfgang Halbig or something, who he can point to as like, well, I can ask questions and I think you're probably right, but you're the one who's saying 100% that this is the case.
dan friesen
But realistically, that's not true.
Alex, the day of the shooting, in terms of Sandy Hook, was speculating about stuff.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
Before he had Steve Pieczenik or Wolfgang Halbig or any of these people on, even James Tracy, before that, he was talking about the video of Robbie Parker during a press conference and speculating about how he looked like an actor.
Like, I think that we have a perception that he uses a lot of other people for cover.
And I think Alex would wish that that was more consistent in his life.
But I think he does a lot of it himself.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I mean, I don't know if I mean cover so much as like that kind of soft launch of the narrative to his audience.
So with Alex, like I remember, of course, on the day of, he was like, ah, this is probably saved.
But then on the next day, he was like, eh, maybe it was, maybe it wasn't.
And then he's got people who are going to back him up.
dan friesen
To be tools.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
Exactly.
dan friesen
For narrative.
jordan holmes
It's the narrative development.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Not that I, yeah, I agree with you on the same day, but like the narrative development, I don't feel like he's got anymore because he doesn't have the roster of bullshitters that he used to have.
He used to have a fucking heavy hitters.
dan friesen
Larry Nichols is dead.
Steve Pieczenik has fallen out of grace.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
This is ripe for a Pachenek come here.
dan friesen
You've got Roger, but he's like, he kind of has his own agenda.
He's not as fun and silly.
He doesn't take as big of swings.
This doesn't involve the Vatican, so Leo Zagami is irrelevant.
You got Twitter people.
jordan holmes
That sucks.
Yeah, that sucks.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
I think, I mean, you got Chase.
jordan holmes
What are you going to get?
The Krassensteins back to be like, oh, I think it was staged.
dan friesen
Yeah, it doesn't hit as hard.
So Alex takes a call from a guy who claims that he ran a tabletop exercise for the Biden inauguration for the government.
I don't believe him.
jordan holmes
Like with a bunch of his friends as elves?
dan friesen
No, he's, well, I hope.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that'd be fun.
dan friesen
The way he's presenting it is like, I have, I basically ran like the Secret Service war games.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
And my mom brought apple slices.
dan friesen
Yeah, I don't really believe him, so I'm going to go ahead and skip that clip.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Because we have more important business at hand.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
And that is that Chase wants to follow up with Alex about whether or not he called in the Angel of Death.
No.
chase geiser
Even a small light.
alex jones
God almighty, I'm so real, folks.
I love freedom.
I'm willing to die for it.
So these callers, I love them to death.
They call in, thinking everything's some big setup.
Evil ain't that powerful.
chase geiser
Even a small light eradicates all darkness.
alex jones
Stop giving in to the evil's idea that it's in charge.
God is in charge.
It pisses me off.
People don't understand how much good there is in this country.
But we don't have the high ground.
But we're going to get control of the government.
And I pray for our enemies.
chase geiser
Yeah, I'm praying.
alex jones
Because I'm an eventful person, but it's got to be done.
chase geiser
Yeah.
Could you pray for the angel of death?
Because some people did die recently.
I was worried you first started doing that.
alex jones
No, I talked to my pastors.
That's Old Testament.
I shouldn't do it.
chase geiser
Didn't do it.
alex jones
But God, you know something?
I've only prayed five or six times and asked for something.
So I always prayed, God tell me what to do.
Every time I prayed, God gave it to me like that.
Wow.
I told the story, people wouldn't believe it.
It's real.
No, I don't take it for granted.
It's not me, but I got a direct line to God.
So is a rare person, too, though.
It's a big secret.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
dan friesen
That's a big secret.
jordan holmes
Jesus Christ.
dan friesen
You know what it is?
Chase is the only person who knows how to ride Alex's energy.
jordan holmes
It's a scene partner.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Chase is a good scene partner.
dan friesen
He's the only person who I've ever seen who could co-host a show with Alex.
That's it.
That's what it is.
He knows.
jordan holmes
No, he's a theater kid.
He's doing the theater kid shit.
He's just like, yeah, man.
Wow.
Holy shit.
He's yes-ending.
He's doing the whole thing.
Yeah.
I know this kid has taken improv classes for sure.
dan friesen
Alex, some people died recently.
Did you actually call it the angels?
jordan holmes
For sure.
dan friesen
Would you like to confess that?
jordan holmes
That was a 100% premise.
He even laughed at it.
He was making fun of Alex.
He was making fun of Alex.
To his face.
Also, amazing.
dan friesen
That is something that in general InfoWars world would have just been some dumb bullshit that Alex said and no one would ever bring back up that, hey, wait, the Angel of Death exists in our continuity.
jordan holmes
Nope.
Chase is like, we got to follow up on this.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
I've seen some people die recently.
Did you do it?
dan friesen
Well, see, it's interesting.
jordan holmes
Did you pray them dead?
dan friesen
It's interesting because it offers two possibilities.
Sure.
One, Alex can do what he did do and say like, no, that's too serious.
jordan holmes
It's too serious.
dan friesen
We don't want to open Pandora's box on this one and give me death laser powers.
jordan holmes
Once you open the death note, there's no going back.
dan friesen
Or, I mean, Chase would have no idea what Alex would want to do with the story.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
It opens up the possibility for Alex to be like, yes, I did.
I did take some people out, and I will not comment any further.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I mean, that's like, what do you, what do you say if you have confessed to holy murder?
dan friesen
Bring me to court.
I dare you.
jordan holmes
Sure, but I mean, we've got the courts of heaven.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
They're available.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
But the angel of death is cool in the courts of heaven.
jordan holmes
Oh, that is a good point.
dan friesen
This is only morally wrong based on your weird human understanding, your terrestrial understanding.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Try and take me to court.
I'll call the angel of death.
unidentified
Wait, wait, wait.
jordan holmes
I'm confused as to how my understanding is confusing whenever, like, it's Alex whose desire is being executed by a ghastly apparition of death.
dan friesen
The ghastly apparition of death would only do it if it was in line with a larger purpose that Alex is in sync with.
jordan holmes
So what if he doesn't ask?
Then the Angel of Death doesn't do it?
unidentified
It's entirely dependent on whether or not Alex kind of feels like it?
dan friesen
Yeah, I think so.
jordan holmes
Okay, I like it.
I like this religion.
I'm joining it.
dan friesen
I don't know.
It's all very dumb.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it is.
dan friesen
So the rest of this show.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
You know, Alex cleared the deck of all the guests.
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
Except for he has a guest.
He has Stella Emmanuel.
jordan holmes
Oh, that's right.
He's got, oh, no, no, to do what he said she was going to do?
dan friesen
No.
No, I don't believe that comes up.
jordan holmes
Oh, thank God.
dan friesen
But she wants, she's on to do a fucking infomercial.
Okay.
alex jones
Okay.
All right.
I wanted to get her fellow Texan up here to Austin from outside Houston.
She's going to host the fourth hour today, but I wanted to get her on.
Plus, she's a great sponsor.
So before we get into all the news, the analysis with Dr. Stella Emmanuel, medical doctor, I just want to upfront plug her products because everybody needs them on the shelf.
Plus, they support the broadcast of the very best out there.
And whether it's prescriptions you can call, they've got those people can do all that.
Or whether it is high-quality supplements, they've got it.
So you didn't come here to do this, but up front, you're keeping the show on air.
Plus, she's your great products people need.
Incredible products people need to buy from you.
They need to support you.
Whether it's telemedicine or whether it's supplements, you've got it all at the website.
dan friesen
So we got another sponsor for Alex, apparently, Stella Emmanuel's Weird Pill Operation.
So she's obviously one of the real crass COVID promoters who rose to prominence pushing hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin, while also saying that gay people are possessed by demons and vaginal pain is often caused by having sex with ghosts.
She's on the show because she's one of the only folks left who will be a sponsor on Infowars.
So Alex is doing an infomercial with her and has given her the fourth hour of the show to promote her shit and preach.
It's pretty funny, though.
Like if you go to her site, you'll find that a shockingly high number of her products have names that are a play on COVID.
Like her electrolyte drink, Covalite, or her hair loss supplement, Cova Hairvitz, or her sleep aid, Covasleep, or her thyroid product, Covadyne.
It's almost like as if she knows exactly where her bread is buttered and what she's doing.
Anyway, a lot of these con artists try and cash in a bit on the hysteria that they themselves create, but I don't know if I've encountered a line of products that are so blunt in their presentation as those that Stella Emmanuel is selling.
It's wild.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Yeah.
I am imagining even the most psychopathic advertising exec is like, hey, listen, I love branding, but we got to pull it back just a hair.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
This is nuts.
dan friesen
You're selling a Gatorade called Covalite.
jordan holmes
I do branding all the time.
I love it.
It means nothing, but this is too much, even for me.
dan friesen
It's a little desperate.
Yeah.
So we're not going to listen to a tone of her because, whatever, I don't really care.
I mean, it's paid programming.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Essentially.
But there's a couple.
jordan holmes
Like swords.
Like Coach McGurk buying swords.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
It's like spaghetti.
It's spaghetti time.
dan friesen
So there, but there are a couple moments that I think are of note.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
And here's one.
alex jones
Let's be clear.
Since I said it, I want the crew to find out.
I showed this one earlier.
It came out two months ago.
AP Reuters Everywhere.
Federal government was the headline.
Federal government paid CVS Walgreens not to prescribe ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine.
They paid them $2 billion up front were ready, knowing it was the answer to blocking.
That's why they wouldn't fulfill it.
But you did.
Think of the premeditated evil.
dr stella immanuel
Yes, it's great evil.
dan friesen
So that's not true.
Pharmacies were paid quite a bit in terms of COVID relief funding from the government.
That is true.
But at no point were they specifically instructed to not fill prescriptions for these medications.
This is an intentional misrepresentation of a federal court ruling that pharmacists could use discretion in filling prescriptions that come in.
This was due to a case that involved a couple in Minnesota who got a prescription from a doctor in Missouri and were subsequently trying to get this prescription filled at a Walmart and then a Hive, and they were both denied.
This is a kind of a decision that's a bit dicey because on the one hand, it does make sense that a pharmacist shouldn't be forced to provide something that they believe could be a bad treatment based on their medical expertise and available evidence.
However, it's pretty obvious how this kind of decision could be used to justify all kinds of other pharmaceutical prohibitions, like access to things like reproductive health care.
It's already the case that many pharmacies, even ones run by big chains like Walgreens, have refused to fill prescriptions for birth control or emergency contraceptions.
So this is something that cuts both directions.
It's a messy question, and there's a part of me that says that they should just let these people fill their prescriptions for these medications that aren't going to work, you know, whatever.
But then there's another side of this that knows that if all of these people have carte blanche to buy up all these drugs, it could put a crunch on the supplies of them for people who actually need them for the things that they work for.
It's very messy.
I don't know.
There's an interesting question that I want to be like, hey, shut it down.
Stop this bullshit.
jordan holmes
Sure, sure, sure.
dan friesen
But there's another end of it that hurts people.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I mean, I guess like ultimately, it's just we need to get advertising and shit like that out of politics.
You know what I'm saying?
Like we wouldn't have ivermectin, hydrochloroquine prescriptions that people were fraudulent, or not fraudulently, but like ineffectually trying to fulfill if it wasn't for a group of people who like turned it into a political movement to do that.
You know what I'm saying?
dan friesen
I think it's mostly people who are looking at profits with supplement businesses, much like people who have COVA product hormones.
jordan holmes
No, it's that.
It's abortion for politics.
It's people who are turning reproductive care into a political thing for the pharmacy.
Like all of this stuff, we shouldn't even be here with a law that's like, hey, you guys can choose.
You know?
dan friesen
Yeah, I mean, probably not.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And that's something that I was thinking about while I was listening to Stello Emanuel that I think is pretty interesting.
And that is that, like, I don't agree with the end result, which is telling people that hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin are going to be good treatments and preventatives for COVID.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
You shouldn't take this seriously and that kind of shit.
I think that's bad.
But what she's actually doing is there is a difficulty, and that is that some prescriptions won't fill your out-of-state drug mill prescriptions that you're giving, you're selling to people.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
And so you've created a network of pharmacies that you know will fulfill these prescriptions.
And I think that should birth control be completely unavailable to people and other reproductive health products and stuff like that.
Were someone to do this with birth control?
I don't think that I would be opposed to it.
I don't think underlying the method, the sort of structure of this I don't have a problem with.
I think there's a profiteering motive that I'm somewhat opposed to.
And I think that the thing, the problem that they're solving is a scam.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I mean, essentially, your point is that when the law bans something that people want bad enough, they really just create a market.
And people are going to fill that market because there's a lot of money.
And we live in a capitalist country, so that's what you're supposed to do.
dan friesen
And when there isn't actually a ban, you introduce a space where someone like this can come in easily enough and create the perception that there's a ban and then create this market.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I mean, it is, it's a little bit like Alex.
Like, as much as you want to blame people, it's like there was a job opening.
It's not like people didn't want this and they just made it whole cloth.
Like, they stepped into a place where people already wanted what they were doing.
You know, it's why did people want the hydro?
You know what I'm saying?
Like, what that's because you can't stop her because if it wasn't, because if it wasn't her, it'd be somebody else.
And if it's banned in America.
Yeah.
And if it's banned in America, there'll be somebody from Mexico or somebody from Canada.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
You know, it's just not how it works.
dan friesen
In essence, what this is, is kind of a natural evolution of the unregulated supplement market and how sort of destructive that is.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you can't.
dan friesen
I think that because of the merging of sort of ascendant anti-vax voices, the real shock to the system that COVID represented.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
I think that those things combining with supplement marketing businesses and that profit motive, it feels like this is almost a natural evolution of that.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And it's pretty fucked up.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
I mean, you have people who lie, people who want to be lied to, a massive emergency that makes everybody panic.
And then, you know, a market for whatever you want that you can exploit.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
I don't even think, you know, people are almost not even involved.
It's like just market forces are making all of this happen.
dan friesen
Well, some people are definitely making a lot of money.
unidentified
No, no, no.
jordan holmes
I'm sure.
I'm sure they're making a lot of money.
But if it weren't them, it would be somebody else making a lot of money.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
And that doesn't take away culpability, but it does sort of help identify with the real problem.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Now, at the same time, like she just gives some advice that is like really responsible.
dr stella immanuel
So we put together a package, seven antibiotics you will need in an emergency.
If you need to travel abroad, if you're locked down, so you can get that and be able to have this in your medicine cabinet, not for you to use.
alex jones
This is a no-brainer.
It supports the broadcast, but it's secondary.
Everybody should stockpile this.
It lasts for years.
It's a win-win.
And you've got the best prices ready to go.
People need to keep us on air and get ready and have this.
dr stella immanuel
Let me tell you one thing else.
If you have, there are people that got their ivermectin stock up two years ago and they're sending us messages that, oh, it's expired.
Don't worry about it.
They did a study in the military and they found out that medicines are usually good five to seven years after the expression date on the bottle.
So do not throw away your medicines.
Kind of keep it because you know, keep your pills just at first.
alex jones
They're maximum, but over like five years, maybe you lose 10% effect.
dr stella immanuel
It's still good, but it's still very good.
So, don't throw away your medicines.
It works, it's gonna continue to work for years after the expiration date.
dan friesen
This is super dangerous advice for Stella to be giving out because she's a doctor and she's being presented as someone giving medical advice.
It is true enough that some medications just lose effectiveness after their expiration date, but some of them can really hurt you because they degrade into toxic compounds over time.
You don't really know which one poses a danger.
So, when she says it's usually okay, that's really bad.
But it's generally best to err on the side of expiration dates, just in case.
There are some things that can cause serious damage after they've expired, but antibiotics are actually one of the things that just become less effective, and that's actually why they're dangerous.
Ineffective antibiotics are how you create antibiotic-resistant infections.
So, what Stella is promoting here is seriously irresponsible messaging.
I would not go with this.
I would say you shouldn't behave this way.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, these people, so many of them, obsessed with what they put into their body, obsessed with what the government might be putting in their body, but they're willing to just trust medications.
I don't trust medications because I don't understand them on a fundamental level.
Like, I get that there are the chemicals to a certain gram level of what it is you're putting inside of there, right?
I still don't really understand the rest of it.
dan friesen
Well, you don't understand it fully, but you trust it in as much as under the care of a doctor.
jordan holmes
They seem extremely confident.
I have pattern recognition, it's worked for other people, I'm going to roll with it, but I'm not going to just be like, eh, I think I got it from here.
That's not how that works.
dan friesen
Well, chemicals, yeah.
I do think it's interesting that you have like, I won't drink tap water, but expired medications are totally fine.
unidentified
Are you shitting me?
Okay, that's crazy chemicals, yeah.
dan friesen
And some of it, like, you don't understand it fully at all.
Like, what happens when a chemical is past its expiration date?
Yeah, does it become something else?
Is there an inherent vulnerability that this substance has to bacteria over time?
Totally.
What is the reason for this particular thing's expiration date?
I just think that this is reckless as hell.
Yeah.
And you can tell that it is motivated by profit motivation.
jordan holmes
Totally.
dan friesen
The way that they're like, yeah, you got the best prices.
So stockpile all these drugs that I'm going to write you a prescription for out of state and then tell you a pharmacy that you can go get it from.
I think it's a little bit reckless.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's a little bit like when a cop is like, oh, if fentanyl touches your skin, you'll explode.
Ah, I definitely didn't do some fentanyl.
dan friesen
Well, Alex has told us that a fake hand is going to poison Trump with fentanyl.
jordan holmes
Ooh, that'd be fun.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So I don't know.
I mean, I think that it's somewhat in line with, you know, end times-y stuff.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
You know, you've got a survival food bucket.
You don't really give a shit about the expiration date of it.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So this kind of vibe fits.
And it all makes sense, but it is also like, you're a doctor.
This should be, you shouldn't be behaving like this in order to sell prescriptions for antibiotics.
jordan holmes
It is always fun whenever we have so many like post-apocalyptic visions of the future and all these people are talking about prep and all that shit.
And like, in my head, I'm like, listen, if civilization collapses and they stop making my meds, we don't have to worry about much.
dan friesen
You'll be gone in a little bit.
jordan holmes
I'll be taken care of.
unidentified
Or we'll all be.
dan friesen
Here's the thing that I'm trying the distinction that I'm trying to get to.
Matt Bracken is somebody that Alex has on who's like a doomsday prepper-ish type of weirdo, loves guns and predicts a race war.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
Right?
If he's saying expired antibiotics are fine when you're in your hole or whatever, I don't really, I mean, I think it's probably not a great message, but it makes sense from him.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
She's supposed to be a doctor.
And so it hits different a little bit.
jordan holmes
It does.
It does.
dan friesen
There's a greater irresponsibility to it.
jordan holmes
There is.
There is.
I think there's a part of that of like, you know, they're able to take advantage of the fact that maybe people trust doctors a little too much.
You know, so there's.
dan friesen
That's an abuse of authority.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
No, I mean, people trust authority too much.
dan friesen
Well, maybe.
Anyway, we come to the end of this, and the rest of this is just Ella Emmanuel.
And Alex gives her the fourth hour, and not great.
But yeah, this is weird.
A little portent of racism to come about Harris.
jordan holmes
That was a barrage of racism that goes back to the classics almost.
I mean, like, literally, I don't think I've heard a lot of that since pre-Civil War literature.
dan friesen
But it also, it's shocking in that sense.
But it also, I do think that it kind of indicates a lack of a lot of footing.
Sure.
I think that Alex may have an over-reliance on racism and tropes that will go in that direction.
I don't think he has a good firm leg to stand on in terms of how to approach the potential of a Harris candidacy.
jordan holmes
I think you've just described a portent even worse than I could have imagined, which is eventually they're all going to figure out that they really don't have much.
So it's just going to be non-stop racism.
dan friesen
I think that there might be.
We'll see.
Anyway, we'll have another episode.
jordan holmes
Dan, you made me feel bad.
dan friesen
Yeah, well, that's what the show does.
jordan holmes
That's what it is.
Well, what are you going to do?
dan friesen
But until then, we have a website.
jordan holmes
And DB Does KnowledgeRight.com.
dan friesen
Yep, we're back.
But until then, I'm Neo.
Leo.
I'm DZX Clark.
I'm the Mysterious Professor.
unidentified
Yeah, and now here comes the sex robot.
alex jones
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air.
Thanks for holding.
jordan holmes
Hello, Alex.
I'm a first-time caller.
unidentified
I'm a huge fan.
jordan holmes
I love your work.
