#975: October 17, 2024 dissects Alex Jones’ erratic shifts—from hyping Roger Stone’s debunked "assassination attempt" via Vem Miller to peddling Ukraine’s nonexistent atomic bombs and framing UK protest laws as "thought crimes." His violent fantasies and conspiracy detours (like racial blame for CB radios) expose a pattern of extremism, while callers’ absurd proposals—archiving his rants in time capsules or "Energon cubes" funding his mission—highlight his delusional self-mythologizing. Jones’ eight-year InfoWars empire thrives on recycled outrage and copyright hypocrisy, proving his own rhetoric is the real globalist threat. [Automatically generated summary]
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.
Well, the old Satchel Page, 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 Page 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.
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.
So everybody on the fence not defending Elon Musk is an idiot.
He is devastating the globalist in live time on every front, reaching it's got to be a billion people a day with stuff.
Sounds like I said it.
Documents, videos.
I mean, he's just slaying them.
He's grand slamming them.
He's whole and oneing 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, 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.
Musk might turn on us down the road.
Doesn't mean you totally trust him, but my goodness gracious, when somebody is blasting the globalist, causing irrevocable damage to their operation, and they're coming after him, the proof's in the pudding.
Or as Jesus said, you judge a tree by its fruits.
So shame on everybody not backing Trump and Elon Musk or Infowars.
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, 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 info war shirts that are homemade or spray-painted on the wall.
People come up to him 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 don't even look at it.
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.
The point is, is that, you know, maybe 20 of them are about her.
You know, how is it, you know, tens of thousands?
One of them is like 35,000 articles.
Well, that's because every publication in the country at some points when they're giving 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 and it would, you know, it'd 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 that this particular memory is deeply traumatic to the parents of that child.
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 knows will hurt people that he's very mad at.
He wants to remind the victims of these harassing experiences and re-traumatize them as possible while pretending that he's doing it to clear his own name because he's a piece of shit.
Claddy'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.
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 wire.
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.
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.
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.
Alex is lying a little bit here about what the trustee said.
The article he's referencing says, quote, Murray said he's only seeking to sell the estate's interests in the social media accounts, but not license the use of Jones' persona or force him to post content on the accounts according to the motion.
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 13th Amendment, the trustee's motion said.
So when he's like, Alex Jones is different, you know, that's why they could sell my social media.
It's so weird because it feels like what he's doing is like, oh, you, yes, it is okay for you to do that, but you got to wait until after the other one's sold.
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.
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, you know, they're 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.
Apparently, a third Trump assassination attempt was thwarted when armed man arrested outside Coachella rally.
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.
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 Ralphs and the Thomas Crookes 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.
And our 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 Epic 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.
Saying 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.
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 internet show and all this stuff.
So it turned out to be like, ah, fuck.
Fuck, we could have run with this.
It's another guy getting arrested with guns.
If maybe he had been to Ukraine or was somehow convenient for us, we could really run with this.
I guess you have a view of 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 pictured cozying up with who you are calling an attempted assassin.
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?
It's like, you know, like I read this story already.
It was not until you were reading it out loud that you're like, what happened to 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 booked for possessing a loaded firearm and high-capacity magazine and was released after posting a $5,000 bail, police records show.
The incident did not impact the safety of former 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 and probably fun at parties.
I don't know.
I don't know.
It just sounds like I would.
Look, all I'm from what I know so far, I kind of want to be friends with him.
Usually, those people are very exhausting at parties and more fun to talk about whenever they get into trouble and 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.
So Fim 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 Ranklin, who I would assume is a Trump supporter, and National File, who also I assume are Trump supporters, are already posting links exonerating Vim.
I just was hoping that you guys could cover this and kind of just put some clarity to the issue because they don't think that Vim is the type of person to try to assassinate Trump.
I mean, the sheriff could be more careful, obviously.
Sure.
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 companies doing this sensationalizing and being a part of it, dancing around in it, and then being like, oh, no.
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.
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 have another headline that actually approaches the dire things.
It's just so first, we're going to rain missiles down on you.
Brunch is like, we'll go to nuclear war.
And they just 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 hit 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 over met with Trump, and I saw a lot of signs that maybe they were coming up for air, leveling up towards sanity.
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.
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.
There's an article up on Infowars.com by a renowned lip reader.
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, caddy 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?
So the man in the UK wasn't arrested for praying or for his thoughts.
In 2014, the Anti-Social 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 test 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 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.
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 dim.
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 the bass fish?
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, 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.
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.
I imagine, like, 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.
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-19, etc.
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.
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.
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, 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.
Imagining an Egyptologist, you know, like digging up Tootin Commons 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 Bagmage.
Like, what kind of day is that?
Where you're like, oh, yeah, well, I guess this guy was also an asshole.
Hieroglyphics would look so much wilder if there was just a bunch of MK Ultra demons fighting against pharaohs who are actually angels dressed up like birds.
I think it's so fascinating, Alex's legend thing, because substantively, his legend is based off of the tiny little clips of edited together 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 don't, that you just assume there's more than those tiny little clips.
There has to be more than those tiny little clips, right?
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 for 30 years, and 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.
So I think that what Alex is really concerned about here is the idea that if he, you know, if someone who doesn't like him wins that auction, they could control the copyright on all of his stuff and copyright strike all of the people who repost his clips and stuff like that.
