Millstone Report w Paul Harrell: ⚔️ Trump–Musk Feud: Splintering the MAGA Coalition?
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Gentlemen, welcome to the show.
Happy Friday to everybody out there.
Many of you on your lunch break.
Many of you finishing up your lunch.
I, on the other hand, am not eating lunch.
I'm doing a talk show.
This is the Melston Report.
My name is Paul Harrell.
We can't do the program without you watching every single day.
We've got a great show for you.
Obviously, the front of the show is going to be centered on the news that Donald Trump and Elon Musk are...
And then last night, people were saying, well, no, maybe they're going to make up.
Maybe it's not a real divorce.
Maybe it was just two people angry, and now they're going to make up.
And then now, oh, it's a whiplash.
No, actually, the feud's going to last for a little longer.
Maybe not the feud.
I think Elon Musk has calmed down a little bit.
There was reports that Donald Trump and Elon Musk were going to have a conversation, try to maybe bury the hatchet.
But then Susie Wiles, the chief of staff, says no, there are actually no plans for a Trump-Musk phone call or conversation.
So we'll have all of those developments for you much, much more.
Also, I want to talk about Russia retaliating against Ukraine.
We've got a couple of videos just about the destruction in Kiev.
Then we're also going to talk about Lindsey Graham again.
You know, Lindsey Graham...
Which kind of makes you wonder.
I mean, many people were asking the question, why was Lindsey Graham and Mike Pompeo, why were they over there, you know, apparently stirring up World War III?
He leaves, they attack.
But maybe Lindsey Graham was over there covering his tracks.
Something to think about.
We've got that much more.
To cover today on the program.
But before we go any further, I want to thank our first sponsor of the day, Red Vive Health.
Folks, you guys are taking advantage of the sale.
There's a bonus sale going on right now because of Father's Day.
I'm told it ends Sunday.
So through Sunday, you can actually stack codes.
Some have had problems stacking the Fathers 15 code with the Paul code.
I'm told that those issues are resolved, but if you have any problems at all, you just call the number, and they'll take care of it for you.
866-726-8483, again, for these clinical strength red light panels that the Medical Industrial Complex does not want you to know about.
I'm thrilled that you can now stack these codes and you can get 15% off with my code, 15% off with Fathers15.
We'll tell you more about this here in a minute, but I just wanted to let you guys know that there are people that have done this.
It's been fixed and resolved, but if you do continue to have problems, you want to make sure you start with my link.
Redvivehealth.org slash Paul.
And then when you want to click OK to accept the initial 15%, and then at checkout, add fathers 15, and everything should work out just fine.
We'll tell you more about the healing power of red light here in just a moment.
So here we go.
Let's start with Trump and Musk are feuding over the BBB, the big, beautiful bill.
I really can't believe that we are.
It really is something special to think about the fact whether or not you agree with the big, beautiful bill or not, or whether or not you think it's fantastic.
The fact that we're using the terminology of President Trump the way we are, because this is only a big, beautiful bill.
This is only something that, you know, it's his vernacular, it's his emphasis, and the whole country is now adopting it, even in the mainstream media, is something to behold about how far President Trump has come in terms of his affecting the culture that we live in.
Alright, so there's plenty of memes out there about the Trump-Musk fight.
And this is my favorite.
For those of you listening to the audio-only version of this podcast, you're really doing yourself a disservice today.
You can get the audio-only version.
Just search Milstone Reporter, my name, Apple or Spotify.
It's Mike Tyson holding two pigeons together.
But there's Trump's face on one and Musk's face on the other.
And then the headline is, Now Kif.
That's pretty funny.
Oh, you guys can't see it yet.
Now Kif.
Kif and makeup.
So there's that one.
Also, Wasson Watch Company, which is quickly becoming, if not already, the most based watch company there is.
In response to Elon Musk tweeting 21 hours ago, time to drop the really big bomb.
Donald Trump is in the Epstein files.
That is the real reason they're not being made public.
Wasson Watch Company asks, can we go back to a previous save?
Can we reload at a previous checkpoint here?
Wouldn't that be nice?
We'll talk about the Epstein allegation a little later, coming up here in just a minute, actually.
We've come a long way from this interview with Sean Hannity where Donald Trump and Elon Musk couldn't say enough kind words about each other.
He's become one of your, if you really didn't believe the media, he's become one of your best friends.
He's working for free for you.
Well, I love the president.
I just want to be clear about that.
You don't care about that.
I know, I love the president.
You love the president.
I think President Trump is a good man and he's, you know, There's something nice about him.
It really is.
It is.
Because, I mean, the president has been so unfairly attacked in the media.
It's really outrageous.
And at this point, I spent a lot of time with the president, and not once have I seen him do something that was mean or cruel or wrong.
Not once.
He's going to go to orbit soon.
No, he's going to go to Mars.
Starlink at some point.
They always ask me, do you want to die on Mars?
And I say, well, yes, but not on impact.
Starlink is in 100 countries.
So look at them.
Look at these two.
Two peas in a pod here.
and now it's not so much.
By the way, it is...
I mean, I've been watching this, you know, feud for the last 24 hours, and I'm just, you know, basically just taking a breath with it all because I think this is one of those things that actually is going to blow over, and I wouldn't be surprised if, you know, we see some sort of reconciliation because what you basically have, you have two billionaires who are type A personalities, and they're clashing here, right?
You know, some people have said, look, I didn't vote for Donald Trump to balance the budget.
I mean, it certainly would be nice.
We all want him to do that.
And we'll talk more about whether or not the national debt or the deficit matters.
Again, my whole take on it, I used to believe it mattered very much, but now I'm not so sure anymore.
That's not to say it's the moral thing to do to spend more than you take in.
It's not, actually.
I'm not defending it in that regard, but clearly our financial system is not free and not – it's – It just seems like the whole thing is rigged anyway.
It's what it seems like to me, but I digress.
Moving on here from the bromance, we did have, I guess last night, we had a Politico story saying that they may reconcile.
Politico claims that signs of a truce are emerging, according to Clandestine.
Over on X, some say the relationship between he and Elon is going very well, never done better.
But that didn't last long because over the morning, we had Laura Loomer saying she was putting out some hopium, I guess.
The left is going to meltdown when Elon Musk is standing next to President Trump as he's signing the big, beautiful bill in the Oval Office.
Now that's a prediction.
That's interesting.
But then this morning, hopes of an immediate reconciliation between the two men were dashed.
Fox News' Peter Doocy says President Trump is getting rid of the Tesla he bought from Musk.
We're told that that Tesla, still sitting there, the red Tesla with Florida tags, is either going to be given away or sold off, and we're told that So I've got to talk to my buddy Jacob Holloway.
So Jacob Holloway, he's interviewed when we've done these bonus Paul Harrell program shows where we are in studio, no green screen, just kind of around the tabletop.
And he's been great.
He's got this great political arc in his past.
He's a fascinating guy to talk to.
But he owns a Tesla.
Right?
And so when he first got to Tesla, and he's right of center, he's on the right spectrum of things.
Didn't used to be, but he is now a Trump supporter and everything else.
And so when he originally bought a Tesla, he'd have conservative Republicans pull up in front of him in big trucks and peel out and basically smoke his car, right?
Because if you owned an electric vehicle or a Tesla, people assumed you were a liberal or people assumed you were Lacking in testosterone and masculinity.
And you go from that to then the left hates Musk because he supports Trump.
He's part of this political coalition that did put him in the White House.
There's no way around that.
I mean, that's a fact.
And then he's afraid of his first life and his tires, afraid that his tires are going to get slashed, afraid that the liberal mob is going to destroy his car if he goes and he charges it at an EV station in too public.
But now is it going to reverse again?
That's the question, right?
Is owning a Tesla going to be gay again?
That's In that Office episode, Michael Scott, snip, snap, snip, snap.
I can't keep up anymore.
Yeah, so for Tesla owners, the political climate is certainly fluid.
So this is what Trump has told the media this morning.
He says, quote, I'm not even thinking about Elon.
He's got a problem.
The poor guy's got a problem.
No, I won't be speaking to him for a while, I guess, but I wish him well.
So that's the latest that I have on the divorce.
Now, it's important to remember, as we talk about people who sometimes are on the outs with Trump, you have to think about somebody like a Megyn Kelly.
So Chase Geyser writes, this wouldn't be the first time Trump orchestrated a fake feud with a public figure to achieve a goal, case in point, Megyn Kelly.
Now, I mean, I don't know if it was a fake feud or not.
Some people probably believe that.
This guy apparently does.
But my point is more of how, you know, when time has the ability to heal wounds, and so we'll see.
You know, there is something to be said about...
Regardless of whether you are on Elon's side or on Trump's side and that sort of thing, there is something to be said about the fact that Elon Musk is like the Republican Party's biggest donor ever or maybe the most consequential donor for sure.
There's something to be said about running that guy off or maybe running that guy off might be a – I mean, that may not be what has happened at all here.
It just may be, again...
Remember, he showed up in the Oval Office.
So on his way out, I didn't cover this at all, but on his way out, Musk shows up in the Oval Office with a black eye.
And there's all of these speculative rumors that somebody in the Trump administration with Musk got into a fight and it actually got physical.
There's all the speculation out there that something like that happened.
So I don't know exactly what happened.
So Jack Posobiec tweeting this Charlie Kirk piece, and what he's doing here is reminding us the same thing, not just with Megyn Kelly, but do you remember Ben Carson, or remember Little Marco, or Lion Ted Cruz?
I've heard this.
There is no way they can get back together because it's been so nasty the way they've attacked each other.
And we always seem to defy the odds where all of a sudden people that were so bitter...
He called little Marco that, you know, he's now a secretary of state.
Okay.
I mean, he, he, he said that Ben Carson was a mental case and literally, and Ben Carson ended up being HUD secretary.
And he made fun of the fact that Ben Carson was lying about being stabbed in his, With his belt.
Yeah, it was crazy.
The 2016 campaign was absolutely nuts.
So you just never know how quickly things like this are going to be mended.
However, one of the things that...
It's because Trump is in there, which is, I mean, that's a pretty low blow.
If, you know, these guys were such best friends on that Hannity interview and now, I mean, how long has Elon Musk known?
I mean, if that's true, how long has Elon Musk known this?
Why was he still sticking around?
But the one thing that that tweet did was get the Democrats to now demand for the Epstein files to be released.
Congressman Eric Swalwell, who is famous for passing gas loudly on national television.
Well, I guess he's more famous for sleeping with a Chinese spy.
But his flatulence on live television is...
I think of the moment where he clearly broke wind, and you could hear it, and he pretended like nothing had happened.
Anyway, Eric Swalwell says, Release the Epstein files now!
In response to Elon Musk attacking President Trump and trying to associate him with Epstein.
Of course, he wouldn't be the first person to have done this.
Many people have tried to...
Donald Trump, though, famously said something to the New Yorker about how Epstein likes them young.
That was back in like 2000, the early 2000s, which was essentially Donald Trump exposing Epstein as a pedophile back then.
You know, there's there's obviously billionaires, a lot of billionaires like to be.
This is a photo of Elon Musk with Ghislaine Maxwell, right?
Patrick Howley from National File posted this photo in response to this.
So there's a lot of questions people have for Elon Musk now.
after he dropped this tweet saying, you know, Trump is in the Epstein files.
That's why they haven't been released yet.
Candace Owens says, quote, That is not the flex you think it is.
Some people are asking, okay, if you knew this the whole time, why are we just now finding out about it?
R.N. McIntyre.
So Elon would have covered up Trump being on the Epstein list if he had gotten spending cuts, if he had gotten the doge cuts.
See, this honestly, this does show, as far as I'm concerned, I think Elon has just kind of flown off the handle here.
Look, I get it, man.
I get it.
Washington, D.C. is corrupt.
The swamp is real.
You can't get them to cut spending.
There's a way business is done.
But, see, I've been jaded in this room.
I mean, I've been an idealist.
And maybe, I mean, I don't know.
Maybe I'm condescending to an Elon Musk.
But, I mean, you got this guy who's in private business.
Private business, you've got to have your T's crossed and your I's dotted way more than in Washington, D.C. You come in and you try to use this business acumen, you bring all these people in, and then, you know, newsflash, people in Washington, D.C. don't create anything.
All they do is suck.
All they do is take things and they tear down.
They don't know how to create many of them for themselves.
And so our system...
That's a fact about Washington, D.C. It just is.
And you've got to know Elon knew it, but in some cases, you have this meltdown because you're going to have this big pork, this big giant bill with all of these favors in it.
But allegedly, it also has the things that Trump said he would do for the American people when he campaigned.
And so, look, I mean, I'm under no illusions, right?
Like, aside from, like, a total societal collapse, I don't – or at least a lot more Elon Musk's or a lot more Donald Trump's or whatever.
Like, it's going to take a long time to actually get – Like, I guess I've been jaded before.
Like, I watched the Tea Party get astroturfed.
I watched all the rhetoric just turn into excuses as to why they can't shrink government.
So I've given up on actually shrinking government in a lot of ways.
Like, I want it to happen.
When you spend $12 trillion in 2010 and now we've spent $36 trillion that we don't have, you might as well just say, you know, we owe a gigabajillion, quadrillion, a million dollars because you can't pay it back.
And by the way, Steve Dace has a really interesting point about why that is.
Why is it?
Why does the deficit and the national debt, the deficit contributes to the national debt, why does it not matter?
Why does it?
It is apparent that it doesn't matter.
You know, eventually you have to pay the Pied Piper, I suppose, but there's apparently another system, there's another set of rules that's actually governing what's going on here.
But anyway, back to this point.
So Elon would have covered up Trump being on the Epstein list if he had gotten spending cuts.
These are honest questions.
Really graceful.
He's got a popular YouTube channel in X presence.
She responds to Musk trying to rope Donald Trump in with Epstein, and she says, why wouldn't you make this information public the second you knew it?
Right?
Why keeping it silent?
Then she also said, if nothing is WWE theater, and it's all genuine, lol, and today you imply that real Donald Trump is blackmailed, doing very bad stuff in the Epstein files, and you've known about it for a while, then why did you bring your child around him numerous times?
So these are just natural questions that people are asking by this swift about-face.
I mean, you could describe it as a tantrum.
You could.
But maybe there's some other disrespect other than like, you know, electronic electric vehicle subsidies.
Maybe there's something else going on here that we don't know.
Maybe that's why Musk wanted to reach out.
It was reported that Musk, Musk has, there's been a few tweets where he said, yeah, we need to end this.
We need to end this fighting, right?
So maybe, maybe that's going to happen.
I don't know.
Who knows?
Susie Wiles says no.
Susie Wiles is like the blockade.
She is like the blockade for a lot of stuff right now, and it's not good.
J.D. Vance writing, President Trump has done more than any person in my lifetime to earn the trust of the movement he leads.
I'm proud to stand beside him.
So obviously Vance backing Trump in this feud.
Laura Luma reporting that people on Capitol Hill are...
Of course, all they're worried about is taking the right political path so that they can stay in office.
She writes, It's heating up.
Will be interesting to see what Republican lawmakers do now.
I know lawmakers who are asking if they should side with President Trump or Elon.
I've been on the Hill all day, and it's all anyone is talking about.
The most powerful man in the world versus the richest man in the world.
Elon Musk saying, without me, Trump would have lost the election, Dems would control the House, and Republicans would be a 51-49 in the Senate.
They'd be a minority.
He says, such ingratitude.
Again, this was before he came out and said, yeah, it's probably best that we try to amend things and make peace here.
But I mean, he also went off and said, hey, I'm going to decommission because Trump threatened to cancel his government contracts at one point.
And then Elon Musk goes, fine, we're going to decommission the Dragon.
They'll just basically cut off the country's ability to get to space.
And then other people think that the wheels really began to fall off of the relationship when Trump rescinded the NASA system.
Apparently he used to have some Democrat affiliations, and Donald Trump found out about it and didn't want that.
Patrick Bat-David, this is his take.
Elon's like, without me, you would never be president.
Imagine how many other people are saying that in his ear.
Girls.
You know, other billionaires, other influencers that they were at PayPal Mafia and all these guys.
He's got friends with a lot of people.
World leaders, primates.
Think about who Elon's talking to.
Who's texting him?
Everybody.
And their mothers, right?
Everybody.
So imagine, dude, everybody knows, man, behind closed doors.
Without you, Trump would have never been president.
You should have been the president.
All this stuff.
You would have never done this with the bill.
You would have done this with the doors.
You would have done this.
Okay.
The way he looks at him like this.
But look at Trump.
Yeah.
He's sitting there saying, I almost freaking died.
And I busted my ass at 78 years old, brought all of you guys together.
We were about to lose this shit to Kamala and to freaking Biden, one of the two.
Woke would have continued, ESG would have continued, all the shit would have continued.
This is what you guys are doing to me?
Seriously?
A grandfather of this many grandkids and a family and all this other, you want to do this to me?
Really?
Over Congress being dysfunctional.
Really, that's what this is.
It's a staple in our society that the people in Washington, D.C. There's a reason there are Lamborghini dealerships.
It's like an oasis.
There could be any recession in the world.
Washington, D.C. is going to be fine.
The businesses there are going to be fine because they take – And they also, now we know, thanks to Elon Musk, they have magic money machines, there's USAID, all of their friends, all of their kids, all of their grandkids are getting taken care of in many instances.
Matter of fact, it is true.
Anybody who was against codifying the doge cuts, if you're in Congress and you're against codifying these cuts or whatever, I do think you should probably be investigated, although you probably need more evidence than just that.
But we should all be suspicious.
We should all expect they're all crooks.
They're all frauds.
The Uniparty hates the American people.
There's no question about that.
They don't love the American people.
Donald Trump is up there.
Originally, with Musk and Howard Lutnick and Trump, they were talking about getting rid of the IRS.
They were talking about there was going to be so much savings that every American taxpayer was going to get $5,000.
They were going to turn it back.
You don't hear that at all anymore.
You hear none of that anymore.
So that's certainly interesting, and maybe you can blame Congress.
Maybe you can blame the stubborn, stiff-necked Congress for just refusing, even after the American people spoke so clearly.
Maybe you can still blame them and all the donors and everybody who's calling in the favors and everybody who wants this big, beautiful bill.
Yes, we're going to codify Trump's agenda, but we're also going to make sure that the gravy train keeps going for all of us.
Something to think about.
What else do we got here before we move on?
So this is what Trump is doing this morning.
I think he's trying to kind of re-prioritize or kind of redirect.
And focus on what's actually happening right now, not focusing on this feud with Musk.
He writes, prices are down, income is up, our border is closed, gasoline is cheap, inflation is dead, our country is booming, companies are pouring into America like never before.
So this is the message that the White House, what Trump wants to refocus, this is what they're saying today.
And then we had this.
I don't know, is he being, I don't know, is Musk being sarcastic here?
Where it says Democrats are calling Trump's decision to end federal funding for California's high-speed rail project, heartless, with just 35 years left to complete the project.
It was so close to completion, you could almost imagine your grandchildren riding the rails.
This is good news.
So Trump cutting funding for California high-speed rail.
Musk says, okay, I think he's being serious here.
He says, sensible move by the president.
This was kind of in the midst of the feud yesterday.
Or maybe as the feud was, kind of winding down, if you will.
We're going to talk more about the debt and deficit here in just a minute, and you don't want to miss it.
But before we do, I want to tell you about Red Vive Health and the great red light panels you can get over at Red Vive Health.
Right now, ladies and gentlemen, there's a huge sale going on.
You can use my link, again, redvivehealth.org slash Paul.

You can feel better.
You can fight inflammation.
You can fight, you know, if you've got sleep problems, this can help with that.

I personally think it helps with digestive issues as well.
Sitting in front of this red light, putting it around your stomach area and your, in my case, belly, it really helps with digestive issues as well.
It's scientifically proven.

And I finally got mine.
So the promo code is Paul.
Oh, look at that.
It's not showing up too well with the green screen.
That's great.
Well, let me show you this.
The promo code is Paul.
It's incredible.
They sent it to you in the mail.
I think the inside is a different color.
Yeah, look at this.
Maybe this will work.
So the promo code, look, they give you all these great antibiotics.
I mean, it's just nuts.
You can also, they've got ivermectin specials, fenbenazole specials.
It's jase.com, J-A-S-E.com.
Just got this in the mail.
And then if you use promo code Paul, you'll save some money on that.
So make sure you do that.
It's another way to get prepared.
You know, what happened with COVID and the supply chain was just, like, absolutely insane.
Maybe I'll have to tell them.
Maybe they can give me a different box, a different color box.
What do you guys think?
Okay, so Curable Premium CBD, that's the sponsor from here on out.
We want to thank them, and we'll tell you more about them here in a minute.
But now let's get on with the rest of the show.
I was saying we're going to talk about the debt.
So let's do that.
Let's talk about the debt.
Does it matter?
That is the question.
So Steve Dace has...
I'm trying to conceptualize my view on this for a while now.
He responds to this.
Let's first get this in here for the proper context.
Here's Elon Musk at CPAC.
He said this months ago.
If the country goes insolvent, if all the money is just spent on paying interest on debt, there's no money left for anything.
So that's the reason I'm doing this, is because I was looking at the big picture here, and it's like, man, our debt's getting out of control.
The interest payments, the interest on the national debt now exceeds the entire Defense Department budget.
It's a trillion a year in interest.
Just to carry the money that we owe is a trillion a year.
Yes.
That is unbelievable.
And rising rapidly.
I mean, a country's not over from a person.
A country overspends, a country goes bankrupt.
The same as a person who overspends goes bankrupt.
It's not, like, optional to solve these things.
It's essential.
We're going to go back there.
Yes, we are.
All right, so talking about the insolvency of the country.
All right, so this is pretty interesting.
Steve Dace writes, this is true.
What Elon Musk said there is true.
But then he also says, but it isn't.
He says, we're $37 trillion in debt.
That's 12 zeros.
We're already broke.
And we have been broke.
We were broke 11 years ago.
We're the biggest debtor nation in all of human history, and we have been for decades.
So this is what I've been saying.
I said this on Monday and Tuesday.
It's just fascinating to me because I know what, at least I try to understand how much a trillion dollars is.
Again, I preach it every time.
A trillion dollars is $27 million a day for 100 years.
That's how much one trillion is.
27 million a day for 100 years.
This is how I can conceptualize it if I envision back in 2010, 12 piles of a trillion dollars.
Each pile represents 27 million a day for 100 years.
Then you go to the next pile.
So 100, 200, 300.
And it's just one of the only ways I think he can...
What's the difference between $12 trillion and $37 trillion?
You can't do anything with it.
You can't pay it back on our current trajectory in spending.
And so clearly, somebody knows something that none of us know.
Steve Dace, I think, is onto something here.
He's trying to explain what that something is.
He says, and yet, in spite of the fact that our nation is broke, we keep going.
We remain the most prosperous people on Earth.
How do we reconcile these things?
He writes, all economies have to be based on something tangible.
The natural law demands it.
In the past, it has often been a tangible commodity like gold, for example, but we went off the gold standard before I was born and have been a fiat economy ever since.
Or it could be based off of something valuable, greatly desired by other nations, so they financed your economy like oil in the Middle East, for example.
I mean, look at the Saudis.
Look at the United Arab Emirates.
He says, so ours is based on something.
Two things, really.
Number one, we have the largest block of consumers with discretionary income to buy goods and services on planet Earth.
Number two, even more importantly, ours is the most advanced and dominant military presence on the planet.
He said because of number two, or what I like to call the military standard.
Now, I've actually heard people talk about this, by the way, that after World War II, us dominating the seas with our Navy, ensuring trade routes, which, again, ensures access to, right, that ensures access to a large amount of consumers in our economy.
So this is why he's saying, essentially, it doesn't matter.
This is why we can spend so much money and nothing bad happens.
Now, those two things are not eternal.
Great military might, that's not eternal.
Having disposable income, that's not eternal.
So it could all go away easily.
But listen, he says, because of number two, or what I like to call the military standard, there is no rival nation with the cojones to show up at the city gate or on our shores with an invading armada ready to call in the note saying, pay us what you owe, which is how such debtor nations were dealt with.
And what?
Now, can the can be kicked down the road forever?
No.
If for no other reason, then there's only one eternal kingdom upon the earth.
So, there you go.
That explains a little bit of what I've been trying to say about getting worked up into a tivvy over this big, beautiful bill and the fact that D.C. doesn't want to change who they are or what they are.
That lets you know a little bit more about it behind the scenes.
Now, there is some stuff in this big, beautiful bill that is disturbing.
And we need to talk about it.
There's a provision in the bill that needs to be removed that would basically, some people are warning, Alex Jones is rewarding, a warning that it would create an AI dictatorship.
An AI dictatorship.
He says, overall, I support the BBB, but this extremely dangerous section must be pulled out of the Senate version.
Essentially, it would ban the states of this union from regulating artificial intelligence in any way for 10 years.
which is, you know, there's a lot of people I don't even know.
Like, with AI, the only thing I know to do, because I know it's a problem, I know, coincidentally, like, right before...
It's just a coincidence, though.
Oh, just a coincidence.
Right before we may be getting the Epstein files, or we may finally learn...
Thousands of videos with Jeffrey Epstein and probably other people were now getting...
Just a coincidence.
Just a coincidence.
So this is what Joe Rogan talked about, about the danger of AI.
Listen.
What about this Big Beautiful Bill?
Isn't there a part of the Big Beautiful Bill that talks about the government being run by AI?
I read something about that today, but I was on the way out the door and I couldn't figure out whether or not it was horseshit.
I had also read another study that was just...
Viewer discretion advised parents.
Parents, viewer discretion advised.
I don't know about the language in this.
try to keep it clean here done where they found that ai was leaving notes for future versions of itself Oh, my God.
It's like a human with a dead man switch or something.
Yes, it's being deceptive.
It's exhibiting self-preservation.
Relevant provision reads that no state or political subdivision may enforce any law or regulation regulating models, artificial intelligence systems, or automated decision systems during the 10-year period beginning on the date of enactment of this act.
What?
I'm going to say that again.
No state or political subdivision may enforce any law or regulation regulating.
Artificial intelligence models.
For 10 years.
So crazy.
This means that US states would be blocked from enforcing laws regulating AI and automated decision systems for 10 years.
Well, in 10 years we have a god.
Well, we talked about yesterday these two AIs communicating with each other and then they switched to Sanskrit.
No way.
They started talking to each other in Sanskrit.
Are you serious?
Yes.
Jesus Christ, it's like a game of whack-a-mole.
So, yeah, it's Sanskrit.
It's like, well, let's talk in a language that's going to be more difficult for the humans.
Let's talk in a dead language so that we can plot.
I mean, we've all seen Terminator.
I mean, we've all seen Skynet.
We all know what Hollywood has been saying for a very, very long time.
And you combine that with the drones.
And, you know, some of these sci-fi movies where the drones, and then in real life, facial recognition software that just, you know, I'm going to find a face and then I'm going to explode as soon as I find the face that I'm looking for.
And speaking of drone warfare, Jim Ferguson from the United Kingdom says it's begun.
Waves of Russian bombers unleash strikes across Ukraine.
The skies over Ukraine are burning.
Russia has launched wave after wave of long-range bombers and missile strikes on a scale that's not been seen in months.
Here's a little photo.
Here's a video of it.
We've got people watching the explosions.
Apparently, this is from the Kiev center.
Airstrikes in Kiev today, which I guess would be yesterday at this point for them.
Obviously, Jim Ferguson has Freedom Trade International.
He wants you to know about that.
Then we have another Russian cruise missile.
This is just reported by Lord Bebo.
A Russian cruise missile rains into factories in Lundsk.
Watch this.
Got one missile there.
There's another missile there.
They're bought.
Yeah.
And then one more there.
So, yeah.
Is this the retaliation?
Will Putin say, you know, now let's talk peace.
I don't know.
Lindsey Graham is being accused of money laundering.
That's right.
Lindsey Graham.
Now, before we get to the accusation, Lindsey Graham took to Twitter To respond to Donald Trump meeting with the German Chancellor yesterday in the Oval Office, he says, I share President Trump and Chancellor Mertz's view that this brutal war between Russia and Ukraine needs to end now.
In that regard, I've been working in a bipartisan fashion to give President Trump more tools when it comes to Russia and those who prop up Putin's war machine by buying cheap oil and gas.
Like, he wants China to pay.
He wants to poke He's upset that China's been buying oil From Russia He says I've coordinated closely with the White House In this endeavor from day one I believe President Trump is the right person And maybe the only person who can end this brutal war No, you are not, Lindsey Graham, and nobody actually believes it, and you are posting this.
Because you know the people of South Carolina know what you're up to.
You know the people of South Carolina know that you're a warmonger.
You've never met a war.
You've never heard of a war that you don't love, that you don't want American troops to go overseas and secure whatever mineral rights you want.
This is about keeping the money laundering operation that is Ukraine, which is a money laundering depot for both parties and the children and the associates of Republicans and Democrats.
That's what this is.
It's also been about supporting the rigging of elections in Europe.
That is my strongly held belief and intuition.
And if the money dries up, I think the people of Europe might actually get governments that represent them.
Yeah, and I think you want to start World War III.
I think that peace between Russia and Ukraine means that war is likely between Israel and Iran and, by extension, dragging the U.S. into another Middle Eastern war.
I think if we normalize and actually make peace with Russia and we open trading routes the way Marco Rubio and Donald Trump have said, and you're undermining that, by the way.
Lindsey Graham is totally undermining that mission, regardless of what he says.
Working closely with the White House.
Yeah, who in the White House?
Somebody like a Mike Waltz?
Well, he's no longer there.
He's been put out to pasture at the United Nations, which is facing bankruptcy.
So anyway, let's get to the allegations.
Former CIA officer says that Lindsey Graham...
He says he's money laundering.
Let me say something about Senator Graham.
There will be news coming out in the next couple of months.
About how he has profited financially off of money that came out of Ukraine, laundered through Latvia, and made its way into his bank account.
And now we're talking significant amounts of money.
Department of Justice is looking at it.
All right, those are serious allegations leveled by That's Larry Johnson.
Now, let's listen to that allegation again, shall we?
Let me say something about Senator Graham.
There will be news coming out in the next couple of months about how he has profited financially off of money that came out of Ukraine, laundered through Latvia, and made its way into his bank account.
And we're talking significant amounts of money.
Department of Justice is looking at it.
All right, those are serious allegations leveled by former CIA officer Larry Johnson.
We shall see.
You know, that's the whole thing.
This is what everybody's been saying about foreign aid forever.
You know, foreign aid, this is what happens.
You give the foreign aid.
The organizations then are expected to tithe portions of that to different NGOs.
Or maybe it goes to the NGO.
Let's say, okay, foreign aid comes to some NGO.
The NGO is expected to tithe a portion of that to some other organization, and that organization gives it to the other organization.
In this case, he says it ends up in Latvia, and then it goes from Latvia back into the senator from South Carolina's pocket.
it.
Now, if this is true, first of all, absolutely none of us will be surprised.
We all expect that people like Lindsey Graham and many others in Washington, D.C. have been doing this for decades and have never been caught.
They have never been investigated because this is the way things are done.
This is how they enrich themselves with our money.
But if this is true, Lindsey Graham should be investigated, charged, and tried, and sentenced to jail.
He certainly should not be the senator from South Carolina.
If this is true, this brings up an entirely different scenario.
Could it be possible that Lindsey Graham is starting World War III?
Yeah, I mean, goes over there, gives Zelensky false hope.
We're going to back you.
We're going to keep this war going to keep you in power.
Because if the war ends, Zelensky loses power and likely will be killed.
Maybe by his own people.
There are now mothers and other Ukrainians who are now openly attacking the goon squads that are coming and capturing their kids to send them to the front line so they'll die for nothing.
But Lindsey Graham could have been over there attempting to shred documents or get somebody to shred documents, attempting to wipe away.
Attempting to wipe away any evidence of him being paid wouldn't be the first time an American politician has tried to stop from being exposed in Ukraine.
Of course, we remember the infamous Joe Biden.
I tell you, fire the prosecutor, you're not getting a billion dollars.
Who knows?
Also, it's not the first time Ukraine's been used to cover something up.
Remember CrowdStrike?
Remember the server?
The DNC server was taken by CrowdStrike.
It was put in Ukraine, allegedly.
Which is why Trump was impeached.
Over the phone call.
With Zelensky, by the way, asking about the CrowdStrike server.
Fascinating stuff, right?
We still don't have the answers that we need.
And a lot of people...
And I'm getting a little...
Honestly, I'm getting...
Look, I know it's only six months in, but something needs to happen soon.
It really does.
So, yeah, Graham accused of money laundering.
We'll see what happens with that.
Interestingly enough, his opponent, Mark Lynch from South Carolina, this is the guy challenging Lindsey Graham in a primary.
He writes, Hakeem Jeffries should be in prison merely for threatening to do this.
What did Hakeem Jeffries do?
Hakeem Jeffries is also affectionately known on this program as Timu Obama.
Every single ICE agent who's engaged in this aggressive overreach and are trying to hide their identities from the American people will be unsuccessful in doing that.
This is America.
This is not the Soviet Union.
We're not behind the Iron Curtain.
This is not the 1930s.
And every single one of them, no matter what it takes, no matter how long it takes, will of course be identified.
That's insane.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is now essentially saying, we will unmask ICE agents and we will let their identities be known to the world, which would also include the cartels in MS-13 and Trendea, the very people that are enemies of these Mexican gangs.
It's insane.
The idea of covering your face when you're taking on the cartels is not new.
The Mexican police have been doing it for years because they know that...
They don't want to find their families in a van just full of torsos, missing arms and legs and heads.
Which is a real thing, by the way, that's happened.
Mark Lynch, Republican candidate for South Carolina Senate, says, Hakeem Jeffries should be in prison merely for threatening to do this.
Mike Johnson should direct the House Sergeant-at-Arms to arrest Hakeem Jeffries immediately.
Because this is a direct threat.
This is a danger.
But it fundamentally shows you not just the political opportunism and tomfoolery of somebody like Timu Obama, Hakeem Jeffries, but really just shows you, We are actually at war, and Democrats like Timu Obama have been running a proxy war against the American people using those Mexican drug cartels against us, by the way.
Not just Democrats, the Uniparty as well.
So in other news, we got some really interesting news.
The Supreme Court, in a unanimous decision, Has basically ruled that anti-white, anti-heterosexual, or, you know, normal, anti-heterosexual bias is illegal under the Civil Rights Act.
Nick Sorter writing, I can't believe this had to be litigated at the Supreme Court, but this is a big win regardless.
The case is called Ames v.
Ohio, headlined the Supreme Court's rare moment of unanimity against a DEI rule explained.
This is by Vox, by the way.
I picked Vox because it's Vox.
I wanted to hear what a liberal take on this would be.
So on Thursday, the Supreme Court handed down a raft of mostly unanimous opinions.
Three of which reached a conservative outcome despite the fact that they were each written by Democratic justices.
Sometimes the law in a case is clear.
Ames v.
Ohio Department of Youth Services, authored by Biden, appointed Justice Katanji Brown-Jackson, was the first of these three cases.
It involved a clearly illegal background circumstance rule.
Now let's talk about this.
Let's go back to this piece here.
The petitioner in this case is Marlene Ames, a heterosexual woman who worked for the Ohio Department of Youth Services in various roles all the way back since 2004.
In 2019, the agency interviewed Ames for a new management position but ultimately hired another candidate, a lesbian.
The agency subsequently demoted Ames from her role as a program administrator and later hired a gay man to fill that role.
Ames then filed this lawsuit against the agency under Title VII, alleging that she was denied the management promotion and demoted because of her sexual orientation.
Because she's normal.
The district court granted summary judgment to the agency and the Sixth Circuit affirmed.
The courts below analyzed Ames' claims under McDonnell Douglas Corp.
B. Green.
Which sets forth the traditional framework for evaluating disparate treatment claims that rest on circumstantial evidence.
At the first step of that framework, the plaintiff must make a prima facie or prima fascia.
Forgive me if that's not how you pronounce it.
But you've got to basically make a claim showing that the defendant acted with a discriminatory motive, like the district court.
The Sixth Circuit held that Ames had failed to meet this requirement, had failed to meet the burden of proof that she needed to come up with because she had not shown background circumstances to support the suspicion that the defendant is, this is a really weird word, is a phrase, is that unusual employer who discriminates the majority.
So you see what they're saying here?
It may be, so, the other courts, the lower courts, have been saying, why would anyone discriminate against the majority?
This country's majority white, majority straight, heterosexual, and so the lower courts were putting the standard up there that, well, it would be really unusual for somebody to discriminate against the majority of the country, which is, of course, preposterous, but this is what they argue.
They assume that if you're a minority, Well, that's normal there, discriminating against minorities.
But why would anyone discriminate against majority?
You're claiming you're being discriminated against, but you're the majority.
You're a white woman who's straight.
So that's what they mean when they say unusual employer who discriminates against the majority.
The court reasoned that Ames is a straight woman was required to make this showing in addition to the usual ones for establishing the burden of proof.
So, essentially, the court rejected this.
As Jackson writes in her opinion...
She quotes the Supreme Court's opinion in McDonald v.
Santa Fe, which held that the federal law governing employment discrimination prohibits racial discrimination in private employment against whites on the same terms as racial discrimination against non-whites.
The plaintiff in Ames alleged discrimination based on sexual orientation rather than race.
Marlene Ames is a straight woman who was passed over for a promotion that was ultimately filled by a lesbian.
She was later demoted and replaced in her previous role by a gay man.
She claims that she was discriminated against because she is straight.
Neither the lower courts that heard this case nor the Supreme Court, however, actually determined whether Ames is a victim of anti-straight discrimination.
Instead, both the trial court and appeals court, the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit ruled against Ames because of an unusual rule applied by the Sixth Circuit.
Again, the idea that...
So what does all this mean?
Well, it means, I mean, you know, it means what everybody...
Reverse racism is real.
You can't be reverse racist or reverse discrimination.
Matter of fact, yes, the majority can be discriminated against, especially when you have the majority...
The central focus is white people bad.
Not just orange man bad, but white people bad has been the mantra of the left in this country, of corporations in this country for the last 15 years.
But in light of this ruling, I do want to say this.
It's interesting that on Pride Month, as we're six days into Pride Month, a couple of days ago, Pete Hegseth decided to rename a battleship.
ABC News says Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered the Navy to strike the name of gay rights activist Harvey Milk from one of its ships, orchestrating the change as Pride Month celebrations take place.
Not an accident.
Hexeth knows exactly what he's doing here.
Orders the Navy to rename the ship, honoring the gay rights activists.
So a lot of takes on this have been fascinating.
Libs of TikTok writing that Pete Hexeth to remove Harvey Milk's name from U.S. Naval ship.
Harvey Milk was a known child predator who had a romantic relationship with a 16-year-old boy.
And, of course, the Democrats are now furious that a pedophile's name is no longer being honored.
Then we have this.
William Wolfe commenting, Ladies and gentlemen, I regret to inform you, neocons.
National Review, in reaction to this news, National Review writes a puff piece on how Harvey Milk was actually a patriot.
Boy, I'm glad we don't have to listen to the National Review anymore.
I tried to read the article, but then it got, it was by John Fund.
Ugh.
Anyway, John Fund, they want me to sign up or whatever.
I don't want to give them any money or even give them my email address.
So I didn't do that.
But anyway, they say that Harvey Milk was a patriot, and this actually shouldn't take place and shouldn't happen.
One thing to be in prayer over, just internationally.
Wesley Hough writes, I'm genuinely concerned with what's going on regarding St. Catherine's Monastery.
It's one of the oldest and most important Christian monastic communities, not to mention the location of some incredibly old and important biblical manuscripts.
According to Greek City Times, the world's oldest Christian monastery, St. Catherine's, in Sinai, is at risk of closure.
An Egyptian court has ordered its property seized, monks evicted, and the sacred site turned into a museum despite promises to protect its Greek Orthodox heritage.
Join the global call to save this historic treasure.
And there you see it there in Egypt.
So if there's a lot of things to pray for, put this one on your prayer list if you think about it.
Something that came across my feed and made me sad.
Obviously, really enjoying Wesley Huff and all of the work that he's been doing.
Folks, before we go, I want to tell you about Curable Premium CBD.
