In this installment, Dan and Jordan check in on Alex trying to do a live interview on Russian TV, failing to do a live interview on Russian TV, and wanting to move on from the false alarm over the third (maybe fourth?) attempted assassination of Trump.

Hello, Alex. | |
| I'm a first time calling in my future. | ||
| I love you. | ||
| Hey, everybody. | ||
| Welcome back to Knowledge Fight. | ||
| I'm Dan. | ||
| I'm Chuck. | ||
| We're a couple dudes like to sit around, worship at the altar of Selene, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones. | ||
| Oh, indeed we are, Dan. | ||
| Jordan. | ||
| Dan! | ||
| Jordan. | ||
| Quick question for you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What's up? | |
| What's your bright spot today, buddy? | ||
| Why don't you go first? | ||
| Well, my bright spot is a supernova. | ||
| Oh. | ||
| Literal? | ||
| A literal supernova. | ||
| A champagne supernova? | ||
| No, no, because that's in the sky. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I thought you got Oasis tickets. | ||
| No, no, no, no. | ||
| This is terrestrial. | ||
| Yeah, my wife's mom, my mother-in-law... | ||
| It surprised me by purchasing a ticket to a World Series game for me. | ||
| So it is still a ticket. | ||
| It is still a ticket. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| It's a ticket to... | ||
| Well, they won't have champagne. | ||
| It'll be a regular Beer Nova. | ||
| You'll get some champagne. | ||
| Yeah, I'll get a Beer Nova. | ||
| But yeah, it's about the most exciting and most ridiculous thing that's ever happened to me. | ||
| So you mentioned this, and I didn't... | ||
| First of all, huzzah. | ||
| I mean, I don't even, yeah, I'm freaking out about it. | ||
| I didn't know that the World Series was already happening. | ||
| So it's in New York, right? | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And from what I understand, LA, it's New York and LA? | ||
| Yep, it's in New York and LA. | ||
| So you get Otani. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| You get the Big Apple. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Yay! | ||
| It's maybe probably of the top ten baseball players alive right now. | ||
| There's seven of them. | ||
| Of the teams that you could possibly want to see, these are pretty much the two most storied franchises in Major League Baseball. | ||
| Short of my beloved Cubs. | ||
| And frankly, what's crazy about it is that... | ||
| This is not something that I've ever even dreamed of. | ||
| This isn't like, oh, this makes my dream come true. | ||
| When we grew up, we were the type of poor where you're like, let's not bother with dreams about stuff like that. | ||
| That's too crazy. | ||
| Right? | ||
| That's nuts. | ||
| And then as I grew up, it's like, I would literally rather die than spend this kind of money on myself. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| And you know that's a literal, like, I would literally rather die. | ||
| Probably, yeah. | ||
| So that was never a dream. | ||
| And then now it's like... | ||
| I mean, I'm struck with, like, slow waves of gratitude. | ||
| Because it's either that or, like, let the Midwestern shame of a nice thing happening be like, no, give it back! | ||
| You know, destroy me, that kind of thing. | ||
| I know the feeling. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And here's what you gotta do. | ||
| You gotta recognize that this is New York versus L.A. There is no place for the Midwest feelings in this. | ||
| No, no, no, no. | ||
| This is a coastal showdown that you're getting to go to. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So you have to choose if you wanna be... | ||
| You know, if you want to be West Coast or East Coast in your mentality. | ||
| That's a good point. | ||
| I know you're probably pulling for LA because you love Otani. | ||
| Well, that's the problem. | ||
| I really don't want either of them to win. | ||
| I don't want either of these two. | ||
| But I do want Otani to win. | ||
| I would like him to win the World Series for himself. | ||
| I don't know if he can do that. | ||
| Wouldn't that be an interesting... | ||
| Oh, well, actually, Otani conquered the World Series this year and has won it outright by himself. | ||
| So, obviously, they won't do that. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But, in theory, he could outscore New York. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| So he could win it himself. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Just based on points. | ||
| Well, the old Satchel Paige, you know, he would show off from time to time by telling the whole defense, get out of here. | ||
| It's just me and the catcher. | ||
| And they would go, and then he would strike out the side, because he's the greatest. | ||
| Satchel Paige was the greatest. | ||
| I'm not saying Otani can do that for nine innings. | ||
| But if anybody should be allowed to try and pitch and hit against another team by himself, it should be him. | ||
| And look, I know we have Casey at the bat as this cautionary tale about hubris and stuff. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| But we also are, we're due for a new legend. | ||
| You know, like Babe Ruth calling his shot. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| You know, like that kind of stuff. | ||
| We need a new reference. | ||
| So like Otani doing that. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Everybody. | ||
| Take a lap. | ||
| Yeah, it'd be amazing. | ||
| It'd be amazing. | ||
| Here's the thing I was thinking about as far as that goes. | ||
| Do you know how crazy it is what Otani's doing? | ||
| Even when there were literal angels in the outfield, no one would believe that if any of that stuff were happening. | ||
| In a Tony Danza movie, a guy can fly up in the air. | ||
| That's far more likely than somebody hitting 50 home runs and stealing 50 bases in the same time while being one of the top 10 pitchers in the league. | ||
| What about a child getting surgery on their arm and having a real good face ball? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I like that. | |
| I like a rookie of the year. | ||
| I like that. | ||
| But that's a... | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| Busey? | ||
| That's a Busey. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, that's a Busey. | |
| It's a Busey. | ||
| That's a Busey. | ||
| What's your bright spot? | ||
| Gary Busey. | ||
| Gary Busey's your bright spot. | ||
| No, he's not. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It's, what have I eaten lately? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| This mustache is growing on me. | ||
| I think. | ||
| I'm living into the mustache. | ||
| And I feel like it has started to sort of take over some of my personalities. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| I was watching an episode of Seinfeld, and I used to love Seinfeld. | ||
| I thought it was so funny. | ||
| I thought it was great. | ||
| Best sitcom. | ||
| Because it's on all the time. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| When I'm a kid, it's on syndication, on reruns all the time. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| I'm watching it, and I'm like, come on! | ||
| Just like, these complaints. | ||
| Is this this big of a deal, you guys? | ||
| Get over yourselves! | ||
| Kramer, come on, what are you doing? | ||
| Kramer, what are you doing? | ||
| Kramer, quit it! | ||
| Knock it off. | ||
| I feel like that was the mustache's influence. | ||
| I can see that. | ||
| I can see that. | ||
| I meant to, the last time we recorded, I meant to say that, I meant to compliment you because you shaved off just a little bit of the side. | ||
| The handlebar is gone. | ||
| It's just a mustache. | ||
| It's just a straight mustache. | ||
| You look good. | ||
| Thanks. | ||
| You look like a firefighter. | ||
| I think that's the no bullshit kind of attitude that can't deal with George Costanza's hijinks. | ||
| Costanza would not make it in the Chicago firefighting game. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I'll tell you that right now. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You created your own problem that you're now complaining about. | ||
| George. | ||
| Take responsibility for your own actions. | ||
| We gotta fire! | ||
| Anyway, we have an episode to go over today, Jordan. | ||
| We're gonna be talking about October 17th, 2024. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Yeah, I don't know. | ||
| I don't know how to introduce these episodes anymore other than to say Alex is on some bullshit. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Saying some stupid things, but there's some entertaining and enlightening stuff we'll learn along the way. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| So we can be excited for that. | ||
| But before we get down to business, let's take a little moment to say hello to some new wonks. | ||
| So first, startling Caleb by repeatedly saying Caleb's name, Caleb. | ||
| Thank you so much, Caleb. | ||
| You're now a policy Caleb. | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Thank you very much! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you! | |
| Next, to Dale and Alexis for reasonably hating Alex Jones' voice but tolerating it because Dan's critical analysis of the right-wing bullshit and Jordan's very reasonable righteous anger comforts my addled brain and puts me to sleep like a chronically abused dog finally getting a gentle touch from our backwoods liberal holdout. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| You're now a policy wonk. | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Thank you very much! | ||
| Thank you! | ||
| Next, wishing my wife a happy anniversary through our favorite podcast. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| You're now a policy wonk. | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| And I just joined the Patreon, and the blurb said to email you here, so could I please get a policy wonk shout-out for quote-unquote Sam. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| You're now a policy wonk. | ||
| I'm a policy wonk. | ||
| Thank you very much! | ||
| So, Jordan, today we start off with kind of... | ||
| Something that we just always have, I guess, in the background, and that is some boot-licking, some of that good stuff for Trump and Elon, and it's just... | ||
| So everybody on the fence not defending Elon Musk is an idiot. | ||
| He is devastating the globalists in live time on every front, reaching... | ||
| It's got to be a billion people today with stuff... | ||
| Sounds like I said it. | ||
| Documents, videos. | ||
| I mean, he's just slaying them. | ||
| He's grand slamming them. | ||
| He's hole in wanting them. | ||
| And then we pray to God for an awakening. | ||
| We pray to God for people with power to stand up against tyranny. | ||
| And then when it comes, eh, it's not perfect. | ||
| Or, you know, 32 million Christians in a big study. | ||
| We're not going to vote. | ||
| Trump's not perfect. | ||
| You got Satan in you. | ||
| You got the devil in you. | ||
| Must might turn on us down the road. | ||
| Doesn't mean you totally trust him, but my goodness gracious, when somebody is blasting the globalists, causing irrevocable damage to their operation, and they're coming after them, the proof's in the pudding. | ||
| Or as Jesus said, you judge a tree by its fruit. | ||
| Shame on everybody not backing Trump and Elon Musk or Infowars. | ||
| You are dumber than a box of rocks. | ||
| So if you don't like Elon Musk or Trump, the devil is in you. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| That's fun. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So, like, was Jesus always in the moment? | ||
| Like, you know, you can't... | ||
| Like, okay, so maybe Elon Musk turns on us. | ||
| Sure, that might happen, and we're expecting it, apparently, and that's totally fine. | ||
| But then, like, four years from now, don't you judge a tree by its fruits and now you're the idiot. | ||
| You know who famously turned on somebody? | ||
| The devil. | ||
| I remember that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| It was kind of his big thing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| His fruits were probably pretty good prior to that. | ||
| He was pretty nice. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, he was living the good life. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Now he's the devil. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I don't know, man. | ||
| I think that this just grows weary. | ||
| I grow weary of this. | ||
| This Elon love and the Trump, if you don't like him, you're the devil. | ||
| It's not something that can exist really within rational conversation. | ||
| It's so far outside of what is worth engaging with that I hear this and I'm like, this is pathetic, dude. | ||
| What are you doing, Alex? | ||
| I don't know if you saw that clip of Tim Walls saying that Elon was on stage dancing around like a dipshit. | ||
| Nope, but that sounds right. | ||
| I saw that on a tweet, and I was like, there's no way he actually said that. | ||
| And I watched the video, and he calls Elon Musk a dipshit. | ||
| I was like, wow. | ||
| Thumbs up. | ||
| People like honesty. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So people are honest to Alex. | ||
| Oh, I strongly doubt that, but I will follow along. | ||
| When he's at the gym. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Because they talk about how much they love him and how he's the greatest. | ||
| He's the legend. | ||
| I have been working out quite a bit, enjoying it. | ||
| And just an example of how popular freedom is today, I went into a big gym and I tried to go over to a corner and work out. | ||
| And I had about... | ||
| Six, seven people walk by and come over. | ||
| Black, white, Hispanic, female. | ||
| And you know what they all said? | ||
| They said the legend. | ||
| Now, that isn't about me. | ||
| That's about the broadcast, everything we do. | ||
| But in their minds, after all the demonization and all the attack, I'm being addressed as the legend. | ||
| Now, how does that tell you the New World Order is doing? | ||
| And then that explains why they hate my gut so much, because this broadcast, the guests, the crew, everything we've done, has achieved folk hero status all over the world. | ||
| Tucker Carlson and others have told me, they'll be in Hungary. | ||
| They'll be in Germany. | ||
| They'll be in the UK. | ||
| They'll be in Russia. | ||
| They'll be in Japan. | ||
| They'll be in Brazil. | ||
| And they see people with InfoWars shirts that are homemade or spray-painted on the wall. | ||
| People come up to them and say, you know Alex Jones. | ||
| We love you. | ||
| We love him. | ||
| Again, that isn't about me. | ||
| It's about the symbol that I am of a pro-human, pro-God, pro-family populist standing against the establishment, and they've thrown literally thousands of national TV productions and programs, hundreds of documentaries, hundreds of movies, hundreds of thousands of news articles. | ||
| I mean, some days I don't even do it anymore. | ||
| I've been looking at Google Alerts. | ||
| They would say, you have 14,900 articles. | ||
| And a few of them would be the Alex Jones lady on the BBC, very lovely lady, very nice. | ||
| I guess we could get married, and it'd be Mr. and Mrs. Alex Jones for real. | ||
| Both Alex Jones, both Welsh, I guess. | ||
| I got some Welsh in here. | ||
| She's pure Welsh. | ||
| The point is that maybe 20 of them are about her. | ||
| How is it tens of thousands? | ||
| One of them is like 35,000 articles. | ||
| Well, that's because every publication in the country, at some point when they're given the order to the CIA that has these pre-programmed systems, they would then report the script they were given. | ||
| And, you know, AP is in every local newspaper. | ||
| It's in every local TV station or almost every. | ||
| So, you know, AP would come out. | ||
| It would be 8,000 AP same articles. | ||
| That's how you got those numbers. | ||
| But it would still be hundreds of different ones every day. | ||
| Saying, I am Satan. | ||
| I am the devil. | ||
| I am horrible. | ||
| I pee on children's graves. | ||
| I have hundreds of millions of dollars I stole from children. | ||
| I murdered children. | ||
| I'm Adam Lanza. | ||
| I'm racist. | ||
| None of it works anymore because people know they're a pack of globalist liars. | ||
| This guy loves to look at Google alerts about himself. | ||
| Like, he's up late at night responding to people on Twitter, and yet he has no thoughts about a shockingly successful podcast making fun of him that's existed for eight years and done almost a thousand episodes with no corporate backing or institutional support. | ||
| That's weird. | ||
| It is weird. | ||
| One of the things I wanted to point out here is how much Alex relishes pretending that he was accused of peeing on one of the graves of a child who was killed at Sandy Hook. | ||
| He was never accused of this, and he knows it, but he also knows... | ||
| By pretending that he was accused of doing this, Alex gets to pretend to be defending himself from an accusation, but in reality, what he's doing is bringing up something he know will hurt people that he's very mad at. | ||
| He wants to remind the victims of these harassing experiences and re-traumatize them if possible, while pretending that he's doing it to clear his own name, because he's a piece of shit. | ||
| Glad he's having fun at the gym, though. | ||
| He should be super worried about people calling him the legend, if you really think about it. | ||
| When people call you the legend, they're treating you as a character based on what you've done in the past. | ||
| You don't have meaningful agency when you're the legend because your story's already been written. | ||
| You're useless tomorrow because you're just the guy who predicted 9-11 based on that edited... | ||
| Clip package that you've put together. | ||
| You've already made your legend. | ||
| The end. | ||
| You're inconvenient as a thing that still exists. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So, enjoy it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, people would really prefer you were gone and got out of the way of the legend. | ||
| People like the legend a lot more than they like the you. | ||
| I think that if they took anything that he says seriously, they would be forced to really think Alex is getting in the way of his own legend. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| But thankfully they don't listen and no one really gives a shit. | ||
| Okay, so I'm interested in these CIA hookups. | ||
| So every major paper institution, AP, everybody has at least one direct connection to the CIA who will, when called upon, like, do you think Manchurian style or do you think it's like a big red phone? | ||
| I think that Alex just doesn't understand, like, article syndication and he is saying that, like, the CIA forces these papers to run AP articles as opposed to it just being a... | ||
| A wire? | ||
| Sure, sure. | ||
| Nah, I want a Batman phone. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, it would be better. | ||
| It would be more fun. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| So, speaking of phones, though, Alex has one. | ||
| Do you know where phones go? | ||
| No. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Russia. | |
| Okay. | ||
| All right. | ||
| National Russian TV is live right now, and they want to ask me questions, interview me, so we'll do a simulcast for 15 minutes after the break. | ||
| Done this with the BBC, the Japanese, everybody. | ||
| But I'll go on... | ||
| Just the Japanese. | ||
| Russian television, tell them what's going on with our election. | ||
| I'll tell these Russians what's up. | ||
| So I thought this was fun. | ||
| And obviously Alex cutting into his own time on his own show to do this. | ||
| That's pretty special. | ||
| It's a nice thing for him to make this accommodation. | ||
| It's always good to kill two birds with one stone. | ||
| It certainly is. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| I don't want to stay late for work. | ||
| No. | ||
| No, I got to get home at five. | ||
| I find sometimes when you try to kill two birds with one stone, you end up killing no birds, and the stone falls and hits you on the foot, and then you're like Fred Flintstone with the bop, bop, bop. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| It's very difficult. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's a throbbing toe. | |
| It's very difficult to hit two birds with one stone. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You end up with none like this. | ||
| We are back live here on the broadcast, and I'm in Texas. | ||
| We're doing a simulcast on the Russian Live 60 Minutes program. | ||
| We'll see how this works. | ||
| And they've got some questions for me, so I'm happy to talk to the Russians about this very important election here in the United States. | ||
| So go ahead, folks. | ||
| They're in Russia. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Bye. | |
| Bye. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Well, I guess they're going live. | ||
| You know, it's fun to do these type of things, but I told the crew. | ||
| I got a lot of important stuff to cover here. | ||
| So I'm going to bail here in about 10 seconds. | ||
| As my instincts told me to do earlier, I'm going to come back, reset the show, and break it all down for folks. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Bailing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Boom. | |
| Didn't work. | ||
| Cut it. | ||
| Doing my show. | ||
| We're done. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Not doing that again. | ||
| Not doing that again. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I like it. | |
| I like that. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's some decision-making right there. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I thought, like, you know, obviously you're listening to the beginning of the episode, and you're like, he's going to do this simulcast with Russian TV. | ||
| This will be interesting. | ||
| And then he comes back from break, and it's like, I should have seen this coming. | ||
| I should have seen there being a tech problem, and him just being like, fuck this, and we're not doing this. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah, that's nuts. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, it's... | |
| Is now really the time to just go jumping on a Russian show? | ||
| Right? | ||
| It doesn't matter. | ||
| Eh, you're right. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You're right. | ||
| Who cares? | ||
| Who cares? | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| I don't know what show that was going to be because they never connected, and I have no idea. | ||
| The Russian 60 Minutes, I guess. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| They have 60 Minutes? | ||
| Are they allowed? | ||
| I think they're allowed to have 60 Minutes in Russia, but that's just an hour. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's a title, though. | ||
| I don't know if... | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't think they'll be able to sue for copyright infringement. | ||
| You're probably right. | ||
| Speaking of copyright infringements, though, Alex has one on his Twitter. | ||
| You know, his Twitter, the real Alex Jones. | ||
| He feels that he owns that personally. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| Not the company. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But the bankruptcy court doesn't really feel the same way. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So he might be losing that Twitter account. | ||
| Gotcha. | ||
| In the auction. | ||
| Right. | ||
| That's coming up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| So he's decided... | ||
| I better start a new Twitter. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Alex Jones bankruptcy trustee aims as a federal Justice Department person to sell social media accounts including real Alex Jones and the name Alex Jones. | ||
| And he says it doesn't violate the 13th Amendment because Alex Jones is not a normal person. | ||
| It actually says it in Bloomberg and in the federal filing. | ||
| You cannot make it up. | ||
| I did a whole hour on it live last night from the Alex Jones Network X account that you definitely want to follow. | ||
| A-J-N At AJNLive. | ||
| We'll put that on screen as a URL. | ||
| At AJNLive. | ||
| That's a new thing for you to follow. | ||
| Or you can roll over and give up. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So Alex has a new Twitter account. | ||
| It's pretty hard to tell how it's any different than an InfoWars account. | ||
| It posts streams from the InfoWars studio. | ||
| It features InfoWars employees. | ||
| All of the arguments that could be made to say that real Alex Jones is a company product work. | ||
| Just as well for this new Twitter account. | ||
| It's being made with and by Infowars resources for the explicit purpose of directing people to a new business outside of the bankruptcy, which is currently the same business, Infowars. | ||
| So that's confusing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Alex is lying a little bit here about what the trustee said. | ||
| The article he's referencing says, The social media accounts are primarily used by Jones to promote the Infowars broadcasts and brand, | ||
| his books and video game and therefore are integral to free speech systems business the trustee said quote alex jones's social media accounts are not the ordinary accounts of a private citizen and the sale of jones's bankruptcy estate's interest in the social media accounts does not require alex jones to perform any personal services that would otherwise violate the 13 Quote, So when he's like, Alex Jones is different, you know, that's why they could sell my social media. | ||
| It's like, no, it's a business account. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You're using this as, it's not like... | ||
| It's not really a personal account. | ||
| I mean, it is different, 100%, for sure, because most people, I would even argue almost all people, do not have their own show named after them. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| Even people with shows, they don't have their own show named after them. | ||
| It's a rare thing. | ||
| It's a small number. | ||
| You're not an ordinary person. | ||
| No, but honestly, Alex could start Alex Jones Network. | ||
| After all of this. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And that's fine. | ||
| That is him still using his name. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But he can't call his show The Alex Jones Show, let's say. | ||
| And that's the compromise that he's just going to have to deal with, I think, if this auction goes how it might. | ||
| It's so weird because it feels like what he's doing is like, oh, yes, it is okay for you to do that, but you've got to wait until after the other one's sold. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Like, yeah, you're gonna have your own Twitter account. | ||
| That's going to happen. | ||
| Are you confused on that? | ||
| They're not going to take away your access to Twitter. | ||
| Well, he has to make it seem like that. | ||
| Like, I can never use my name again. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
| It's like, no one's making that argument. | ||
| No, nobody's doing that. | ||
| But even still, like, you make a new Twitter account later. | ||
| Why are you doing it now? | ||
| Because it feels like that'll then become part of the thing that they're selling. | ||
| It should. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Just wait! | |
| I think he has no confidence. | ||
| And I think that there's probably good reason. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| Like, I went and I checked this out just this morning, today. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And I checked, it has about 40,000 followers. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ooh! | |
| Which is not nothing, but it's not good for someone like, he should have so many more followers. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| I don't think that the message is really there of like, hey, you should... | ||
| There's not enough people who are making that migration over. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| And that... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, that's not good. | |
| No, but honestly, that's why you started afterwards. | ||
| Because the explosion of the company and the going away creates a spectacle that you can then use to... | ||
| Launch your new thing. | ||
| Look at all this. | ||
| So you should be doing anyway. | ||
| This is bad showmanship. | ||
| Yeah, while everybody's gloating. | ||
| They're giving you all of their attention, which means you can exploit that attention to then start your own thing, and they'll have inadvertently supported you in your launch of the new thing. | ||
| That's the way you could go. | ||
| That's the way you do it. | ||
| Damn. | ||
| Insane. | ||
| So, Roger Stone is on, of course. | ||
| Trump's gonna win, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| Naturally. | ||
| But he is complaining about how one of the guys who had a gun around Trump at the golf course, His case is going to be postponed. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| This guy, Ryan Routh, they have now postponed his trial indefinitely. | ||
| They say there's so much evidence now that we can't possibly get through all of it. | ||
| It'll take us eternity, evidently, because he's never going to go to trial. | ||
| And then they take this poor guy, Vem Miller, who was not posing any threat to Trump, who's a Trump supporter who did nothing wrong. | ||
| You had him on. | ||
| I had him on. | ||
| They smear this guy. | ||
| He had fake passports. | ||
| No, he didn't. | ||
| He had a fraudulent pass to the Trump rally. | ||
| No, he didn't. | ||
| So they're using anything they can to create fear. | ||
| So Roger, let's start getting to the Bret Baier clips here. | ||
| So Alex is pretty quick to jump off that subject there. | ||
| And there's a pretty good reason. | ||
| So do you know about Vem Miller? | ||
| I know nothing about Vem Miller. | ||
| Vem Miller. | ||
| Vem Miller. | ||
| This is a guy who got arrested at Coachella. | ||
| At the Coachella rally. | ||
| Outside the Coachella rally. | ||
| We're just putting stank on all our words now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| You kind of have to. | ||
| So Alex wants to jump off this subject pretty quickly because it's a little bit embarrassing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| This was another assassination attempt against Trump that went bad because as it was being reported by people like Chase Geyser, which we'll listen to in a minute... | ||
| They were reporting this as like, oh no, the globalists tried to kill Trump again. | ||
| Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| It unfortunately came out that the guy who got arrested is a right-wing talk show host. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| And has been on Infowars. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And is pretty cool. | ||
| Has a lot of mutual friends with Alex. | ||
| Great. | ||
| And so they had to switch pretty hard. | ||
| They had to pivot this story pretty fast. | ||
| And so Alex doesn't want to deal with this. | ||
| He doesn't want Roger bringing this up because it's embarrassing. | ||
| Yeah, that's pretty embarrassing. | ||
| So I thought we would go back and experience a little bit of this. | ||
| I enjoy it. | ||
| Because this story actually jumped off when Chase was hosting. | ||
| So on Sunday's show, on the 13th, there was news breaking of this potential assassin. | ||
| Apparently, a third Trump assassination attempt was thwarted when armed man arrested outside Coachella Raleigh, Sheriff says. | ||
| This was a story that broke on the New York Post. | ||
| Drew Hernandez did a great job of breaking this on Twitter as well, which is where it first came to our attention. | ||
| Now, the only thing that bothers me about this headline, of course, is that I think this was actually the fourth attempt, at least the fourth attempt, because everyone seems to forget about what happened in Tucson. | ||
| With the rally where 20 people had to seek medical care sitting right behind Trump on stage for what appeared to be some sort of a chemical attack or a laser attack, basically blinding several of them, some of them severely, some of them even perhaps permanently. | ||
| Trump, fortunately, was not affected, but it does seem like there was some sort of specific attempt to harm the president at the Tucson rally, which I think counted as the third. | ||
| But now we have this fourth attempt, or what the officials are going to refer to as the third attempt outside of Coachella. | ||
| I'm told, based on some of the reports that I see, we're waiting for more details to come in, as the story, of course, just broke today, that this person had a high-capacity magazine, which, of course, would be illegal in the state of California. | ||
| I lived in California for several years. | ||
| Unfortunately, it was a dark time in my life. | ||
| And I specifically remember having to... | ||
| Abandon my high-capacity, high-capacity magazines for my Glock 19. Is that why it was a dark time? | ||
| So, yeah, you have Chase very much not getting the message that we're supposed to forget about that Tucson thing. | ||
| That was a dud. | ||
| No one bought the chemical attack thing. | ||
| We're going to pretend we didn't do that, because it kind of takes away the whole credibility of us. | ||
| Talking about the next assassination attempt. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| There's a whole crying wolf thing. | ||
| Right. | ||
| We're definitely not going to take responsibility for the whole poisoning his coke thing from way back when. | ||
| No. | ||
| Coca-Cola. | ||
| Diet Coke. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| We're on like assassination attempts. | ||
| Colonial poisoning. | ||
| We're on like a thousand assassination attempts. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| So we pretend a lot of that stuff doesn't happen in order to keep the ground ready for play. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Off to the next one. | ||
| And so Chase doesn't understand that. | ||
| No. | ||
| And he's eager because... | ||
| This is how you should be reporting news of someone getting arrested with a gun near a Trump rally if you're on Infowars. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Of course. | ||
| Strike. | ||
| The iron's hot. | ||
| It's what you do. | ||
| So Chase goes on. | ||
| But I will say that a high-capacity magazine is not something that one may come by very often in California, regardless of what the law is today, because of what the law has been for so many years up until this point. | ||
| And it seems like between the Ryan Rouths... | ||
| And the Thomas Crookses and the Lee Harvey Oswalds and others, and this gentleman right here, I assume gentlemen, that there is an MKUltra psychological operation being conducted right before our eyes where the deep state hopes that they can trigger any number of random lunatics throughout the United States of America to behave in a reckless and violent way toward former President Donald Trump. | ||
| It's a safe assumption. | ||
| For Chase to be making, it makes complete sense. | ||
| I mean, if there wasn't an MKUltra program happening right now, what other explanation could there possibly be? | ||
| I don't... | ||
| No. | ||
| Also, I like the idea of the Ryan Rouths, the Thomas Crooks, and the... | ||
| Lee Harvey Oswald. | ||
| What's he been doing lately? | ||
| Yeah, you know. | ||
| Two of those pretty current. | ||
| Another one a little bit in the past. | ||
| His later work has dropped off, but his early stuff, it still sticks around. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So Chase is stupid. | ||
| Two of the things that he's already implied from him talking, well, I mean, one is not an implication. | ||
| It's just, I saw this because Drew Hernandez posted it on Twitter. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So you're already like, oh, this is how we are sourcing information. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right, right, right. | |
| And then the second, the assumption part that he's making is he has a high-capacity magazine, and that's suspicious. | ||
| That shouldn't be for you. | ||
| No. | ||
| You're gun people. | ||
| Right. | ||
| That should not be something that is a mark of any kind of, this guy's up to no good. | ||
| Right. | ||
| You should think that that's what I would say. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Well, if I understand him correctly, California's awful, because I had to get rid of my high-capacity magazine there. | ||
| Very much. | ||
| Darkest time of his life. | ||
| Bad. | ||
| But also, if I were in Texas with a high-capacity magazine, that is worthy of suspicion because I'm probably doing something. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I mean, I think that based on... | ||
| I think... | ||
| Yeah, probably. | ||
| I mean, look, they're just opportunistic. | ||
| Right, right, right, right. | ||
| But it's opportunism against their own stated principle, which is that guns are cool and it's never suspicious to have a gun. | ||
| Yeah, it feels like they've... | ||
| They've found themselves twisting so much, they're locked in a pretzel. | ||
| And so Chase salts that pretzel by talking more about this globalist assassination plot. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| An armed man was arrested Saturday outside former President Donald Trump's MAGA rally in Coachella, California, after he allegedly said he wanted to kill the president. | ||
| Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco told the Epoch Times that his department arrested a man who was in possession of two firearms outside the perimeter of Trump's event in Coachella, 130 miles east of Los Angeles. | ||
| Thing again, we arrested a man trying to get in the perimeter with two firearms who ended up saying that he was going to kill the president. | ||
| Bianco told the outlet, adding the individual was carrying fraudulent VIP and media passes at the rally checkpoint. | ||
| And they say this is the third attempt, but we know it's the fourth if we count what happened in Tucson. | ||
| I don't want to beat a dead horse or belabor the point. | ||
| But the fact of the matter is, the leftists, the Democrats, the globalists, have failed the American people so abundantly over the course of the last several years that the population of the American nation has become abundantly populist in and of itself. | ||
| It realizes that our problems are no longer right versus left, but the people versus the political class, and so they have to resort to assassinating their political opponents because they cannot beat them. | ||
| In fair elections, they can't even beat them in rigged elections because support for Donald Trump is officially too big to rig. | ||
| Yeah, too big to rig. | ||
| So this is a good way to respond to the story for Infowars, and everything would have gone totally fine if it hadn't been for the fact that Vem Miller is a right-wing guy who has his own, like, internet show and all this stuff. | ||
| So it turned out to be like, uh, fuck. | ||
| Fuck, we could have run with this. | ||
| It's another guy getting arrested with guns. | ||
| Right. | ||
| If maybe he had been to Ukraine or, you know, it was somehow convenient for us, we could really run with this. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But we can't. | ||
| But Chase doesn't know that. | ||
| Can I, I feel like this is maybe a stupid question to ask. | ||
| Did he actually say he was going to assassinate the president, or was he just arrested because he looked like he was that kind of guy? | ||
| He was arrested at a checkpoint, and I don't believe he said that. | ||
| There are some things that the sheriff said that were misinterpreted. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
| Perhaps, let's say. | ||
| But I do not believe that he ever said, I was going to kill Trump. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, listen, I don't think he said that, but you never know. | ||
| It's 2024. | ||
| I think that some of the stuff that the sheriff said can lead to sensational reporting. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| And I think that most of the media... | ||
| Did not jump on this in another assassination attempt. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure, sure, sure. | |
| A lot of folks said, a guy with a gun arrested at checkpoint. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Because that's what happened. | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| A lot of the Mainer stream news, let's say the dinosaur media, a lot of them reported it as a guy at a checkpoint with guns. | ||
| Makes sense. | ||
| Whereas someone like Chase jumps on air and says, this is probably an MKUltra operation. | ||
| This is the fourth time they tried to kill him with that chemical attack. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And so they got a little irresponsible with it and then needed to reel it in because it was one of their buddies. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And so the next day, on the 14th, Harrison Smith is on the American Journal. | ||
| And he's trying to, you know, maybe we got to backpedal on this thing a little bit. | ||
| I guess you have gradations of assassination attempts. | ||
| On one end of the spectrum is a shooter. | ||
| Firing at Donald Trump and hitting his ear with a bullet, right? | ||
| There's like, okay, that's an assassination attempt. | ||
| When the bullet grazes the intended target, that's an assassination attempt. | ||
| When some guy is caught with guns vaguely close to a rally, that's way on the other end of the spectrum. | ||
| And I can't remember exactly what Owen said on X, but it was something like, you know, this guy seems like a right-winger. | ||
| And he probably has pictures with other right-wingers. | ||
| And so there's probably people out there right now going, this guy's an assassin who have pictures with this guy. | ||
| So that's not going to look good when you're, you know, pictured cozying up with who you are calling an attempted assassin. | ||
| Maybe we should reflect on that and it's larger. | ||
| Nope, never mind. | ||
| Never mind. | ||
|

|
My bad. | |
| The man, Vim Miller, was intercepted by police at a checkpoint about half a mile from an entrance to the rally at Coachella Valley, California, soon before it began. | ||
| Soon before it began, police said Sunday. | ||
| Soon before it began. | ||
| Am I having a stroke? | ||
| I read this story already. | ||
| It was not until you're reading it out loud, you're like, what happened to the press? | ||
| What is going on here? | ||
| So, I'm sorry, does this sentence make any sense to anybody else? | ||
| He was intercepted by police at a checkpoint about half a mile from an entrance to the rally in Coachella Valley, California, soon before it began. | ||
| Police said Sunday. | ||
| Okay, great. | ||
| Police said Miller was carrying a loaded shotgun, handgun, and high-capacity magazine and is believed to be a member of a right-wing anti-government organization. | ||
| My goodness. | ||
| He was booked for possessing a loaded firearm in High Capacity Magazine and was released after posting a $5,000 bail. | ||
| Police records show. | ||
| The incident did not impact the safety of Foreign President Trump or the attendees of the event, the Riverside County Sheriff's Office said in a police report. | ||
| Police release. | ||
| The Secret Service put out a statement saying it was apprised of the arrest, saying the incident did not impact protective operations. | ||
| The Secret Service extends its gratitude to the deputies and local partners who assisted safeguarding last night's events. | ||
| The U.S. Attorney's Office in Los Angeles said in a statement on Sunday that while Trump was not in danger, the statement added that while no federal arrest had been made, an investigation was ongoing. | ||
| Chad Bianco, Riverside County Sheriff, said in a press conference on Sunday that Miller was plotting to kill Trump, but acknowledged that was speculation. | ||
| What we do know is that he showed up with multiple passports and different names, an unregistered vehicle with a fake license plate and loaded firearms, the sheriff said at a news conference on Sunday afternoon. | ||
| We do not know whether he was an assassin. | ||
| Any claims of an attempted assassination is pure speculation at this point. | ||
| What we can tell you for sure is that the man was based. | ||
| The man clearly was based in probably fun at parties. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It just sounds like I would... | ||
| From what I know so far, I kind of want to be friends with him. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Multiple passports and different names. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Maybe we could reflect on that. | |
| Nope. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay, never mind. | |
| Sounds like a fun Sunday afternoon to me. | ||
| What a fucking dork. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| This guy sounds cool. | ||
| This is such an interesting way for the ball to break. | ||
| Because Owen does make a great point with this tweet that Harrison is reflecting on. | ||
| It's like, oh, hey, we know this guy. | ||
| Let's not pretend this one's an assassination or else it's going to look weird for us. | ||
| Too many questions to answer. | ||
| Let's back off on this one. | ||
| And then loaded guns driving around. | ||
| Fake identification, all this stuff. | ||
| Sounds based. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Yep, yep, yep. | ||
| Okay, man. | ||
| I mean, okay. | ||
| Now, I will say this. | ||
| It is more cool to have a fake license plate than to have a regular license plate just by the virtue of coolness rules, right? | ||
| But that does not make people fun at parties. | ||
| No. | ||
| Usually... | ||
| Those people are very exhausting at parties and more fun to talk about whenever they get into trouble and you're at a different party. | ||
| You're never going to believe what happened to this guy. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Let me tell you a story about this guy who is not fun at parties, but it is a great time to talk about him. | ||
| The legend. | ||
| The legend. | ||
| Yep, ironically. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, I get it. | ||
| I get it. | ||
| We're trying to be like, this guy is actually cool. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure, sure. | |
| So, you know, Harrison's doing an alright job. | ||
| Of this. | ||
| But if it hadn't been somebody who was very clearly a part of their media ecosystem, then this would not be happening. | ||
| They would have cannibalized him in a heartbeat. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| So a caller wants to tell Harrison about how this guy has his own show and stuff. | ||
| Oh my god. | ||
| It's probably a setup. | ||
| It's probably a setup. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So, Femm Miller, apparently this is a big misunderstanding. | |
| The sheriff made a mistake. | ||
| He's been released on bail. | ||
| He's already put out a statement. | ||
| Ivan Rankin, who I would assume is a Trump supporter, a national file who also I assume are Trump supporters, are already posting links exonerating Femm. | ||
| I just was hoping that you guys could cover this and kind of just put some clarity to the issue because I don't think that Femm is the type of person to try to assassinate Trump. | ||
| I've been on this show twice. | ||
| Oh, wow. | ||
| He didn't seem like the type. | ||
| Yeah, he's got a podcast called Blood Money. | ||
| Talented, smart individual. | ||
| He's a patriot. | ||
| It sounds like a setup. | ||
| It sounds like as if they're just looking for some hype and some sensationalism. | ||
| Maybe jump the gun, but hopefully you guys can figure it out. | ||
| Yeah, and maybe just, you know, sort of being too hyper-vigilant where they're blowing... | ||
| Up this thing that was really nothing. | ||
| And so the next time it happens, people go, ah, well, it's just happening again. | ||
| You know, maybe tomorrow it'll be another Trump assassination attempt. | ||
| And it turns out not to be real. | ||
| And then, like, when a real assassination attempt happens, everybody just sort of shrugs because we keep hearing it over and over. | ||
| It's like the boy who cried wolf. | ||
| Are you fucking with me? | ||
| Yeah, it's very interesting. | ||
| Apparently he made a documentary that he released on October 4th called Bundy vs. | ||
| the Deep State, the murder of Mike Little. | ||
| People are speculating that he's being set up because he was exposing what happened with the Bundy ranch. | ||
| Yeah, that's okay. | ||
| That's a way to try and make this interesting. | ||
| But, like, you know, your response of is he fucking with you is so, like, deserved because the indictment is of themselves. | ||
| The sensationalizing the boy who cried wolf is your behavior. | ||
| You're talking about yourself. | ||
| This is the InfoWars behavior. | ||
| Chase last night couldn't stop himself from getting on air and talking about how this is an MKUltra fourth attempted assassination attempt. | ||
| Good God. | ||
| He is the boy who cried wolf, and now you're realizing that it looks embarrassing, and you can't sustain this one. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah! | ||
| So it's everyone's fault but his own. | ||
| It's so weird. | ||
| It's so weird when they do this. | ||
| I just don't understand. | ||
| Just plow forward. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Just go. | ||
| Who fucking cares? | ||
| Fuck this guy. | ||
| Right. | ||
| You don't care. | ||
| You don't like the guy. | ||
| You don't know him, and he's going to be useless to you in five seconds. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What did you do with the Tucson one? | ||
| You mostly ignore it, and Chase is accidentally bringing it up some. | ||
| Yeah, just move on. | ||
| This didn't happen. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| Who cares? | ||
| Who cares about Vem Miller? | ||
| Why would you even allow people to bring up... | ||
| Exactly what you do as a criticism for you doing it! | ||
| Well, I think that Vem might be connected. | ||
| Well, yeah, I guess if our deputy of retribution over here... | ||
| Secretary. | ||
| Yeah, sure. | ||
| And National File is saying that he's cool, which is a company that Alex owns. | ||
| His other website. | ||
| Pass. | ||
| So they're all saying he's cool. | ||
| Fine. | ||
| Also, he apparently knows Pete Santilli and is hooked in with the Bundy Ranch people. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So there is a decent chance that maybe he has some sort of a way that he could hurt Alex. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Maybe he's connected to some people closer. | ||
| Then Alex even is in some orbits. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
| So we're not a huge show, but we're a made man, if you will. | ||
| Yeah, it's possible that Alex has some clout or cred that could be threatened by, like... | ||
| Not giving a correction in this case. | ||
| You know, like journalists do when they, let's say, defame the families and loved ones of murdered children. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| So I think that he's going above and beyond in terms of correcting the record on this. | ||
| It does feel a little unusual. | ||
| To the point where, on the 14th, Alex has Vem Miller on his show. | ||
| Really? | ||
| The headlines ran over the weekend. | ||
| There was a third assassination attempt against President Trump. | ||
| Fourth! | ||
| And because the media tried to cover up the first and the second one, I thought, well, that's plausible that it could have actually, you know, been one. | ||
| But it turns out that people I know really well know this fellow really well, and they say that it's all just a false alarm. | ||
| And he's going to be joining us coming up here in about six, seven, eight minutes. | ||
| Armed man, Ben Miller, arrested outside Trump Coachella rally. | ||
| His local sheriff insists it was a third assassination attempt despite letting perp walk on meager $5,000 bail. | ||
| Well, I know a lot of people that know this guy, who I know are good people, like Pete Santelli. | ||
| They know him well. | ||
| They say it's pure crap. | ||
| So we're going to get Miller, 49, popping in on the show to clarify this. | ||
| And that's good news. | ||
| I'm glad it wasn't another assassination attempt, and I'm glad that it was a false alarm. | ||
| But you really can't blame folks in this climate for that situation. | ||
| Yeah, you can. | ||
| You can blame people for sensationalizing bullshit. | ||
| Totally your fault. | ||
| Yep, you did this to yourself. | ||
| It's your fault. | ||
| You did it. | ||
| Yep, you're cleaning up your own mess and then claiming that someone else made a mess. | ||
| How do you not apportion blame to when a thing happens? | ||
| Because that is impossible. | ||
| Fair enough. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's impossible to ever know who really sensationalized this story. | ||
| We may never know. | ||
| I mean, the sheriff could be more careful, obviously. | ||
| That's certainly a criticism that's in there. | ||
| Oftentimes with a lot of the comms that come from police departments and stuff, there's imperfect messaging, let's say. | ||
| But then beyond that, this is like Alex, his own company is doing this sensationalizing and being a part of it, dancing around in it. | ||
| And then being like, oh no. | ||
| Yeah, I just... | ||
| NBC did this. | ||
| MSNBC, CNN did this. | ||
| Yeah, this is just... | ||
| You're right. | ||
| It has to be something else. | ||
| Because this doesn't really make sense to me. | ||
| You either eat it or you move on. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You know, you just go, eh, fuck it, we fucked up. | ||
| Or you move on. | ||
| Who cares? | ||
| Chase is doing this shit on the Sunday show. | ||
| It's so easy to ignore. | ||
| Yeah, nobody's paying attention. | ||
| It's gotta be something like Pete Santilli called him and was like, dude, what the fuck? | ||
| Yeah, because he doesn't sound happy to be talking to Vem Miller. | ||
| It's not a celebration. | ||
| No, no, no, no. | ||
| Nor is he, like, happy that it wasn't an assassination attempt. | ||
| He sounds very bummed. | ||
| An assassination attempt would be more convenient for his... | ||
| Because the proboscis, the global proboscis is back. | ||
| He would prefer to be shitting all over Van Miller right now. | ||
| That's what his ideal state would be. | ||
| I think so. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I think so. | ||
| And, yeah, I don't know exactly what could possibly, you know. | ||
| Could be anything, yeah. | ||
| It makes me think of, like, you know, in those emails that were turned over as part of the Sandy Hook case. | ||
| There are internal emails between people about like, hey, there's something about a guy I know in the comments. | ||
| They're making an accusation about him. | ||
| Can you delete that comment? | ||
| And they're willing to do that for their group of buddies and stuff. | ||
| Whereas that courtesy is not extended to other people. | ||
| So I think that it's entirely possible. | ||
| It's just like, this is a Bundy guy. | ||
| He's hooked up. | ||
| We'll do him a solid. | ||
| What a bunch of weirdos. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| What a bunch of weirdos. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So we jump back to the 17th. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| And Alex is in a severe mood. | ||
| That's for sure. | ||
| Build is reporting, you can read the article, and of course they've leaked this on purpose out of NATO, that NATO officials, high level, have told Build... | ||
| So they want the Russians to know that Ukraine has nuclear reactors. | ||
| Ukraine has scientists. | ||
| And Ukraine is weeks away from having atomic bombs. | ||
| And Ukraine might use atomic bombs on Russia. | ||
| Boy, that's quite a headline. | ||
| Because that's really what it should read. | ||
| Not German news publication claims Ukraine could have nuclear weapons within weeks. | ||
| Germany's most respected news publication reports, according to high-level NATO officials, the headline is, Globalists threaten Russia with nuclear-armed Ukraine in greatest nuclear war escalation in human history. | ||
| Or you could have another headline that actually approaches the dire existential Ultra-urgent, Armageddon-flirting, nuclear conflagration-pushing, satanic behavior. | ||
| I mean, words don't even approach it. | ||
| It's just... | ||
| So... | ||
| First, we're going to rain missiles down on you. | ||
| Russia's like, we'll go to nuclear war. | ||
| And NATO's like, well, we're not going to start the nuclear war. | ||
| But Ukraine might. | ||
| That way they have plausible historical deniability. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| So I was saying the last three weeks, since five weeks ago, when they escalated right up to the verge, Russia said, fine, we'll start attacking NATO targets if you get us with any conventional weapons inside Russia, any conventional heavy weapons, and target our military bases. | ||
| And I saw them starting, oh, maybe we'll make a deal, and Zelensky came over and met with Trump, and I saw a lot of signs that maybe they were coming up for air, leveling up towards sanity. | ||
| No. | ||
| I didn't say they were becoming sane. | ||
| I said I was seeing some signs of it, and that I was hopeful. | ||
| Well, this is not hopeful. | ||
| This is not hopeful. | ||
| So that build story that Alex is talking about has no concrete sources and the Ukrainian government has come out and repudiated it and said it's not true. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| What happened here is that Zelensky spoke to the European Council last week and in his speech he mentioned that he told Trump that in order to preserve his country he would need to join NATO or become a nuclear country. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| There's no time frame for when he said this to Trump and the clear message he was sending is we want to be in NATO. | ||
| It was not that I want nukes. | ||
| Right. | ||
| It was the security guarantees. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I would like the power of nukes without having to have the responsibility of nukes. | ||
| Ukraine is a country that has a solid record in terms of being on the side of nuclear non-proliferation, so it really doesn't make a lot of sense that they would all of a sudden just start making nuclear bombs. | ||
| Zelensky used this as a way of illustrating how existential the need to join NATO was for Ukraine, and now it's being spun by all the expected folk to tell their fun stories. | ||
| But just to be up to date and as clear as possible, the proboscis is out. | ||
| Right. | ||
| It is extended, and Alex is not euphoric anymore. | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| This is the opposite of euphoria. | ||
| Man, I have been having a rough, you know, it's vibration. | ||
| You know, he's vibrating real fast, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. | ||
| It's a lot. | ||
| It's a lot. | ||
| I like an even keel kind of thing, you know? | ||
| Not this. | ||
| This proboscis is going... | ||
| It's like a jackhammer. | ||
| Whatever control room is inside the head of whatever mechanized insect we're describing here, that is chaos. | ||
| It is. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So we got some headlines. | ||
| I think some pretty important news about lip reading. | ||
| There's an article up on InfoWars.com, our renowned lip reader. | ||
| That Biden and Obama in that exchange were saying we're totally screwed. | ||
| She's not strong. | ||
| What are we going to do? | ||
| Obama says there's still time. | ||
| We can still, you know, win. | ||
| That's a pretty big article up on Infowars.com. | ||
| Now listen to this. | ||
| You've seen the videos, men, women, you name it, where they'll be praying across the street, catty corner from an abortion clinic, praying silently and they get arrested. | ||
| But now they've got the first known conviction of thought crime in modern British history. | ||
| The guilty man, a veteran, was spotted praying silently for his dead son outside an abortion clinic. | ||
| Prison sentence. | ||
| Because you say, oh, well, why do we care what happens in the UK or the EU? | ||
| Because it's global. | ||
| It's global. | ||
| So this show is just stupid. | ||
| Alex is not even trying. | ||
| Lip-reading nonsense. | ||
| I don't even care. | ||
| I don't know what to do with it. | ||
| So the man in the UK wasn't arrested for praying or for his thoughts. | ||
| In 2014, the Antisocial Behavior, Crime, and Policing Act was passed in the UK, part of which contained rules that have an area around British pregnancy advice service locations. | ||
| They make that area around them a safe zone where you couldn't protest due to harassment concerns. | ||
| In 2022, this rule was invoked around a particular clinic, and a guy named Adam Smith-Connor decided to protest within the safe zone anyway. | ||
| He was warned multiple times, and he was aware that he was, in effect, trespassing, and he didn't care. | ||
| He ended up getting arrested and fined about 9,000 pounds and two years probation. | ||
| Alex is lying, saying that he went to jail. | ||
| I think that what this guy is doing is annoying, harassing, and I disagree with him entirely, but it's kind of the spirit of protest. | ||
| He cares enough about praying performatively right outside an abortion clinic that he can't abide by the safe zone, and he's taking the consequences of that upon himself as the protest. | ||
| That's the truth. | ||
| Yeah, when you have a sit-in, they don't want you to sit there. | ||
| Yeah, and that's the statement that you're making by doing it anyway. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And that's fine. | ||
| It just becomes unacceptable when you have people like Alex pretending that he got arrested for something other than what he did. | ||
| His protest or prayer has zero to do with anything that got him in trouble. | ||
| It was just that he wasn't allowed to be inside that safe zone. | ||
| If Alex is opposed to that, then that's fine, and we can have a conversation about whether or not there should be safe zones, but it's a losing strategy to even engage with the idea that this guy was arrested for thought crimes. | ||
| It's a fraudulent framing of the story, and if you engage with it, even to try to debunk or correct it, you've already kind of lost. | ||
| And Alex specializes in shit like that, where it's like, even playing around with this, you've lost. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Is this or is this not a thought crime? | ||
| You're off the wrong foot. | ||
| Don't even... | ||
| Who cares? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It would be better if he was a one-man band. | ||
| All of us. | ||
| That's my final answer for... | ||
| Do you mean Alex or this protester? | ||
| Alex. | ||
| Oh. | ||
| I think it would be better if he was a one-man band. | ||
| No, I think I meant the protester originally. | ||
| That makes more sense. | ||
| I got a little mixed up there. | ||
| No, it'd be more fun. | ||
| So the protester who's inside the safe zone of an abortion clinic should be a one-man band. | ||
| Yeah, because then you're like, oh, prayer is bad. | ||
| No. | ||
| No, sir. | ||
| No. | ||
| So that's my new rule. | ||
| If you are going to be in those protest zones, it's already going to be harassment. | ||
| But now you have to be a one-man band, so nobody can blame you for it being about prayer or anything like that. | ||
| It's always about being the band. | ||
| Do you propose this same policy for, like, sit-ins? | ||
| Like, climate sit-ins? | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| It'd be amazing. | ||
| I think it would be tough to sync up the symbols. | ||
| Oh, it'd be tough. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It'd be real hard. | ||
| A hundred one-person bands? | ||
| It'd be a lot of noise. | ||
| It'd be a real noisy area. | ||
| So, in this next clip, Alex... | ||
| I think he just rants a little bit about how he would kill a mugger. | ||
| Great. | ||
| And then I just think that the message that he's trying to send is, everyone thinks I'm weird, but I would have been normal in the past. | ||
| And I think that's a sad thought. | ||
| I've been on air 30 plus years. | ||
| And I read the books and the publications written by presidents, prime ministers, think tank heads about the hellish world they were going to build. | ||
| And I saw that much of what they said they would build, previously they got done. | ||
| So I said, I'm going to fight these people. | ||
| Humanity doesn't need to be slaves. | ||
| We don't need to go along with this. | ||
| I don't believe humanity will want to be controlled by these monsters and depopulated. | ||
| That's not a very hard decision to make. | ||
| But people are like, I don't choose to believe these bad things are happening. | ||
| That's gloom and doom. | ||
| I got a bowling league to go to. | ||
| I got a golf game to play. | ||
| You don't think I don't love golf? | ||
| You don't think I love to bowl? | ||
| You don't think I don't love to hunt dove? | ||
| You don't think I don't love to hunt elk? | ||
| You don't think I don't love to hunt hogs out of a helicopter? | ||
| You don't think I don't love to play pool? | ||
| You don't think I don't love to go out on a boat and drink beer? | ||
| Oh, I love it. | ||
| I can do it all day long. | ||
| Real easy. | ||
| But see... | ||
| If I'm out in a parking lot walking out of a restaurant with my family and some mugger walks up and puts a gun to my head, well, I've got to deal with that. | ||
| And instinctively, I'm going to feign that he's in control. | ||
| I'm going to grab the gun, force it up. | ||
| Squeeze it out of his hand, and then I'm going to jump on top of him in one purposeful move with the decision and intent to kill him, and I'm going to ram his head full power in the concrete, and then five more times, I'm going to slam it with intention and feel the skull break, because I have got will. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Die! | |
| Sure. | ||
| Now, you have will, too, not to just beat somebody's brains out, but to wake up. | ||
| and decide you're under attack and admit you're under attack and then not put up with it politically, culturally, spiritually, and then fire up against these people. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So, you're under attack. | |
| You like it? | ||
| You like being pissed all over and crapped all over? | ||
| You like these damn pedophiles running everything? | ||
| You think your ancestors would like what's going on? | ||
| What the hell's going on out there? | ||
| If I went to some stupid football game and painted myself up in the team's colors and yelled and screamed like that, that's a good American. | ||
| But I get fired up about trying to stop World War III, and it's weird. | ||
| And that's why we're screwed up. | ||
| But if I was around 150 years ago, and the people then could see what was going on, they'd be acting crazier than me. | ||
| But we've gotten domesticated. | ||
| I didn't give the number down. | ||
| I'm an idiot. | ||
| So let's take a few calls. | ||
| Here's the toll-free number. | ||
| Yeah, let's take some calls. | ||
| What's going on out there? | ||
| I think that's the most relatable thing I've heard him say in my entire life. | ||
| Because I often feel like, hey, what's going on out there? | ||
| I think what's going on in there. | ||
| Yeah, I don't want to know what's going on in there. | ||
| So, I mean, obviously murder fantasies tend to get to Alex. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| He sometimes gets lost in them a little bit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I think that my vision of demons involves unhinged screaming, snarling, grunting. | ||
| Everything that Alex is embodying honestly has more archetype connections to... | ||
| Like a demon. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| I don't know if he realizes that. | ||
| Almost a level of breath that has brimstone through the auditory sounds, you know? | ||
| Like, you can feel the brimstone in your headphones. | ||
| Yeah, this doesn't have an angelic feel to me. | ||
| No, usually associated with harps, calming music. | ||
| Or beating someone's head into the ground until they die. | ||
| Generally associated with hellish kind of circus. | ||
| I believe that Alex said that if he was walking in a parking lot with his family, right? | ||
| And I understand the need to protect your family. | ||
| I understand that entirely. | ||
| But I think that his kids might be horribly traumatized by him smashing someone's head. | ||
| In front of them. | ||
| Yeah, yep, yep. | ||
| When he's already subdued them and disarmed them. | ||
| Especially if they're already unarmed, incapacitated, yeah. | ||
| And you have to assume he's letting out a war cry while he's doing it. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| Like, you see your dad murder. | ||
| Yeah, I imagine that in his mind he then tears the man's throat out with his teeth. | ||
| Uh-huh. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Come, children, we feast! | ||
| And then he begins howling at the moon like a fucking beast, yes. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah! | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I feel like that's too much. | ||
| All for a wallet. | ||
| Worth it. | ||
| Well, look, I understand the self-defense. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| It can justify maybe... | ||
| Panicky, what are you going to do? | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Heat of the moment. | ||
| This is a person who's describing a methodical intention. | ||
| This is not heat of the moment. | ||
| This is... | ||
| I'm going to use this as an excuse to murder somebody in front of my family in a grisly and grotesque fashion. | ||
| He's messed up. | ||
| Yeah, I imagine my wife likes to watch the serial killer documentaries about serial killers and how they serial kill people. | ||
| And oftentimes when they're describing how they would go about their serial killing, it would have a very similar vibe of like, if a person walks up into this direction, then I will do this thing to them. | ||
| Then I will take them to this place and these things will also occur. | ||
| And this is all because of a deep-seated need within me that I can't fix anywhere else. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I guess the difference between the two is that... | ||
| Alex has, like, this thin justification of, I'm being mugged. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And so that's why all of this is okay. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| The distance between him and a serial killer is both, well, I mean, in talking shit, and also not very far. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nah. | |
| So we get some calls. | ||
| What kind of serial killer takes calls? | ||
| That's a good question. | ||
| That is a good question. | ||
| So this one guy is like, we should all get CB radios. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I'm listening. | ||
| Yeah, fine. | ||
| Whatever. | ||
| But Alex's response is interesting. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Brian in Minnesota. | ||
| You're on the air worldwide. | ||
| Thanks for calling. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's an honor, Alex. | |
| I've been a software and hardware engineer for decades, and I think that one of the most important things right now is communication. | ||
| Obviously, we can see how they've been trying to break that down during COVID-1984, et cetera. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Communication is the thing that they fear most. | |
| I think that we should all be setting up at the very least, practically, CB radio systems, but there's also the capability of using software-defined radio. | ||
| Everybody can do this. | ||
| I can send you the open source code and the schematics where we can set up neighborhood-based communication sectors, which can allow neighbors to communicate if everything gets shut off, and this can be run on solar power or any kind of renewable energy, even a crankshaft. | ||
| So I think it's essential that we all set up communication systems to be ready to be able to communicate with each other. | ||
| And if martial law were to break out, to keep reminding our neighbors, do not play into the trap of civil unrest. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| And then when illegal aliens loot your house and you fight back, they're going to say, white man murders innocent Hispanics. | ||
| They create the crisis. | ||
| What? | ||
| What? | ||
| Hold on. | ||
| Why is that how you respond to what this guy is saying? | ||
| It's a little out of left field. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Just throwing some racism in there for fun. | ||
| Where else is you going to put it? | ||
| Justifiable racist violence fantasies. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| I didn't like that because I kind of, you know, when you listen to Alex's show, there's a lot of just trash. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Not people. | ||
| I'm not calling people trash, but just content is trash. | ||
| The ideas are trash. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But this guy is coming with something that I kind of enjoy. | ||
| You know, like, obviously I don't think that they're going to take down the communication grid. | ||
| I don't believe these fantasies and this paranoia, but it's a fun hobby. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And, like, you know, maybe having a CB radio with your buddy down the block or whatever, I think that's kind of fun. | ||
| I think it's great. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| As far as, like, we've heard a lot of bad ideas. | ||
| And this guy, I'm sure he is sharing a lot of those bad ideas. | ||
| This is fine. | ||
| This is a great, fine thing. | ||
| Yeah, and so what he's bringing to the table is a kind of fun Let's find a way to get crank radios and we can contact each other. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah! | |
| It's like little kids with walkie-talkies. | ||
| I was just thinking the same thing. | ||
| I was like, oh, let's put two cups on a string. | ||
| We'll talk to our neighbors. | ||
| We'll have a grand time. | ||
| And then Alex's response to that is like, oh, when you kill these immigrants, they're going to blame you and say it was a white guy. | ||
| No! | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| No! | ||
| We just want to talk on our cup phone, man. | ||
| What is wrong with you? | ||
| Something is wrong. | ||
| You are not allowed in the treehouse. | ||
| Yeah, I'd kick him out. | ||
| Yeah, for sure. | ||
| So Alex wants to do his show every day, but he can't because he has to desperately chase money. | ||
| He has to chase money around everywhere. | ||
| Man, we're talking about 26 days. | ||
| Hell, it's really 25 now. | ||
| Trying to broadcast every day. | ||
| I said I was going to do an emergency Saturday show because I want to broadcast every day, but I've got to run around behind the scenes and build infrastructure and get... | ||
| Energon cubes. | ||
| That's all money is to me, is energy to do the right thing. | ||
| And we're working on getting the Energon cubes. | ||
| And I just have this instinctive, spiritual understanding that I should not just maintain under attack, that I've been wrong in only trying to maintain, because when you maintain, you get ground down and actually get reversed. | ||
| No. | ||
| Shoot for the moon. | ||
| Go all the way. | ||
| Swing for the fences. | ||
| Total commitment. | ||
| And so I pledge to you to intensify the energy and focus, to intensify the broadcast, to intensify the mission, to intensify the truth, to intensify. | ||
| And we are intensifying, intensifying, raising to the challenge. | ||
| Just like that great song, Eye of the Tiger. | ||
| Let's come in at 6 after with Eye of the Tiger. | ||
| Rising up to the challenge, folks. | ||
| I think he might have done some stimulants during a break or something, because his... | ||
| His vibe shifts pretty hard. | ||
| Intensify! | ||
| Intensify! | ||
| Just like that song, Eye of the Tiger. | ||
| Let's come on back. | ||
| We're going to come back to Eye of the Tiger, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Yeah, he's got a different... | ||
| The top of the hour. | ||
| A little bit of a different vibe. | ||
| Weird. | ||
| So yeah, I think that you can still get in trouble for fraud if you just call things Energon cubes. | ||
| The Transformers aren't going to save you from court. | ||
| I mean, I don't know. | ||
| Have we talked to Starscream about their legal strategy yet? | ||
| Because I have heard that Starscream is one of the best lawyers in this country. | ||
| Now, I don't know if it's legal to practice in Texas, though. | ||
| That might be our main issue here. | ||
| Yeah, the bar. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
| I think that Alex shouldn't be saying, like, I'm in the background making infrastructure and stuff like that because it's kind of exactly what he's not supposed to do. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And Energon cubes. | ||
| Just sad. | ||
| Yeah, it does sometimes feel like we are at a bank. | ||
| Sitting here with a loan officer, just at a regular old bank, sitting here with a loan officer, talking about how maybe we want to set up a small business. | ||
| And, you know, we need some help. | ||
| And all the while, in the background, there is a man just stealing money from all of the places where you can steal money. | ||
| And we're both all like, hey, that man is stealing your money. | ||
| But he's also discussing it very loudly. | ||
| He's talking to the other tellers about how he's taking their money from them. | ||
| And they're like, we love giving you money. | ||
| This is so great. | ||
| And we're like, no, that man should not be stealing your money. | ||
| And the loan officer says... | ||
| You guys are annoying. | ||
| And that's the end of our show. | ||
| I'm going to steal all your shit and make a competing bank. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| Hey, man, that seems like a great idea. | ||
| We'll invest in that bank. | ||
| I'm going to make another bank politically. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| Great. | ||
| What are you talking about? | ||
| I think that's a great idea. | ||
| That'll save everybody some time. | ||
| So, we got one last clip here, and it's another caller. | ||
| And it just makes me sad. | ||
| Makes me real sad. | ||
| Uh-oh. | ||
| The world. | ||
| What a world. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Me and the kids have been doing time capsules, and we decided to put, like, a Bible in it and Constitution and Bill of Rights, and I was thinking it'd be kind of cool if you sold one that had, like, at least a summary of your archives and stuff, you know, to preserve for the future. | |
| Oh, yeah, well, the Democrats said that they're going to own all that and ban it all. | ||
| Literal digital book burning. | ||
| But you guys, my stuff's everywhere. | ||
| It's all free to air. | ||
| It's always been free. | ||
| You've always owned it. | ||
| No matter what they say, they'll never be able to block you. | ||
| Everybody, whoever's got the capabilities, go download InfoWars. | ||
| Upload your own version. | ||
| It's free to the public. | ||
| All my films, all my material, everything, it's all yours. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It'd be kind of cool for me to see something like that in your market and buy a time capsule ready to go, you know? | |
| Well, absolutely, and that's something that we've been working on, so you read my mind. | ||
| So we've got a time capsule. | ||
| Another thing that's kind of cute, like this guy and his kid working on a time capsule, that sweet and fun parent-child kind of stuff, and you have the Bible, you have the Constitution, and then you have Alex's dumbass. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| It's such a bummer the idea that something quaint like a bonding parent-child time capsule experience can also involve this dumb shit. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| It's just, it doesn't feel right. | ||
| That is, that would be such a wild fucking day. | ||
| Imagining an Egyptologist, you know, like, digging up Tutankhamen's tomb, Pulling out all this jewelry and shit, and then there's, like, a pamphlet for how evil fucking the vizier is written by Dick Bag McGee. | ||
| Like, what kind of day is that? | ||
| Where you're like, oh, yeah, well, I guess this guy was also an asshole. | ||
| That is such an interesting question of, like, if the work of cranks, like, lived on. | ||
| Right? | ||
| How would history ever deal with unreliable narrators and just habitual liars? | ||
| Hieroglyphics would look so much wilder if there was just a bunch of MKUltra demons fighting against pharaohs who are actually angels dressed up like bird people. | ||
| Oh, so I'm looking over the fossil record. | ||
| I found the Dead Sea Scrolls. | ||
| Okay, so there's one. | ||
| What I'm reading here is that the proboscis has been pulled back. | ||
| Wait, wait, wait. | ||
| No, no, no, no. | ||
| It appears that the proboscis has been extended again. | ||
| I did not read the next piece of the scroll. | ||
| It's so dumb. | ||
| Such a bummer. | ||
| What's that untranslatable language, linear B or whatever it is? | ||
| Something like that. | ||
| If you do translate it, it turns out to just be Alex rebroadcasts. | ||
| That's what it is. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And there's a part of me that realizes that, like, this is a great thing for Alex to do. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Because you can make a curated version of yourself and then pretend that... | ||
| Is what goes in the time capsule or whatever. | ||
| In the same way that he has this edited clip of himself from before 9-11, he creates the legend based on stuff like that. | ||
| He could just create a bigger body of work that is the legend. | ||
| I think it's so fascinating, Alex's legend thing, because substantively his legend is based off of the tiny little clips. | ||
| Of editing other stuff to make him look like he's prescient. | ||
| But it's also combined with him doing so many hours and being so bullshit and saying so many lies that you just assume there's more than those tiny little clips. | ||
| There has to be more than those tiny little clips, right? | ||
| You just assume that a normal person would be embarrassed and stop. | ||
| Totally. | ||
| And it just turns out that's... | ||
| It's just an assumption that you make about people. | ||
| Or even the idea of a stop clock being right twice a day. | ||
| You're like, well, clearly there will be another time that he's right. | ||
| Right? | ||
| It's twice a day, not just the, you know? | ||
| There's so few. | ||
| There's the Tucson chemical attack on Trump. | ||
| But because he's done so much, people give him... | ||
| I mean, it's wild. | ||
| It's a wild combination of not having done anything combined with having done so much that people assume there's no way you could have not done anything. | ||
| There's no way that your career amounts to nothing but anger and unprocessed trauma. | ||
| There's no way. | ||
| Exploiting people's grief. | ||
| 30 years and there's no... | ||
| There's no way that if all we were going to put into that time capsule that you have self-described as being worth it is a 20-second clip. | ||
| Yeah, that's probably about it. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| So I think that what Alex is really concerned about here is the idea that if someone who doesn't like him wins that auction, they could control... | ||
| The copyright on all of his stuff, and copyright strike all the people who repost his clips and stuff like that. | ||
| Which I don't think is a sincere concern that he needs to be too worried about. | ||
| But, there's an ultimate irony. | ||
| His greatest argument that there is no copyright on any of his stuff is our existence. | ||
| And he could point to this podcast as, I have never enforced copyright protection on any of my stuff. | ||
| Yep. | ||

Look at them. | |
| But that might be self-defeating in some ways. | ||
| Every way out comes back to us. | ||
| Bitter irony. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So, we'll check back in, see how he's counting the days down to the election. | ||
| I'd like to get closer to current, but what are we going to do? | ||
| Life. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Life. | ||
| Let's live it. | ||
|

|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| So, we will check back in and see what he's up to, but until then, we have a website. | ||
| Indeed we do. | ||
| It's knowledgefight.com. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| We'll be back, but until then, I'm Leo. | ||
| I'm Leo. | ||
| I'm DZX Clark. | ||
| I am the Mysterious Professor. | ||
| Woo! | ||

|
Yeah! | |

| Yeah! | ||
| Woo! | ||
