Unknown Speaker (00:00:00.000)
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air, thanks for holding.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:04.000)
Hello Alex, I'm a first time caller, I'm a huge fan, I love your work.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:07.280)
I love you.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:07.759)
Hey everybody, welcome back to Knowledge Fight, I'm Dan.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:09.759)
I'm Jordan.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:10.320)
We're a couple dudes, like to sit around,
Unknown Speaker (00:00:11.679)
drink novelty beverages, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:14.560)
Oh indeed we are, Dan.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:16.800)
Jordan.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:17.280)
Dan!
Unknown Speaker (00:00:17.760)
Jordan.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:18.960)
Got any hot sauce updates for us?
Unknown Speaker (00:00:20.480)
Hot sauce updates.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:20.800)
It's been a while since we've had hot sauce updates.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:23.679)
Yeah, well I've said this privately in conversation with people,
Unknown Speaker (00:00:27.199)
uh, I believe that I've found my, uh, hot sauce pepper.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:31.440)
Oh really?
Unknown Speaker (00:00:31.839)
I think.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:32.640)
Oh, shit!
Unknown Speaker (00:00:33.520)
I could be wrong about this.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:34.560)
We got some big news on the hot sauce front!
Unknown Speaker (00:00:36.479)
Well I got a selection of hot sauces from, uh, the Tears of Joy shop in Austin
Unknown Speaker (00:00:41.520)
that I visited at the beginning of February.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:43.439)
Right, right, right.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:44.000)
And one of the, uh, one of them is sitting right there, you can see the Hydra.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:47.759)
The Hydra.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:48.479)
That has the, uh, a seven pot primo pepper.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:51.520)
Right, hail Hydra of course.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:52.799)
It's good, but it's a little bit, it's a little bit much.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:55.759)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:56.000)
It's a little aggressive.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:56.960)
That, well, that's also the Hydra in the Marvel universe.
Unknown Speaker (00:00:59.920)
That's not it for me.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:01.280)
I believe the other sauce, one of the other sauces I bought was a scorpion,
Unknown Speaker (00:01:04.879)
uh, pepper, Trinidad scorpion, uh, sauce.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:08.239)
And it was great.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:09.280)
Just the right level of heat.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:10.719)
A little bit scary at times.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:12.879)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:13.200)
The heat, but really easy, not easy, but enjoyable to ride out.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:17.040)
The flavor was really good.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:19.120)
There's a fruitiness to it.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:20.560)
So I believe once I move into a new apartment and start up my pepper garden,
Unknown Speaker (00:01:24.400)
one of the first things I'm going to mess around with is a couple different,
Unknown Speaker (00:01:28.879)
uh, uh, strains of scorpion peppers.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:31.680)
That sounds nice.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:32.480)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:32.799)
So there's an update for you.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:34.239)
That is, that's great.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:35.519)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:35.840)
I'm excited about it.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:37.280)
I like the update.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:38.400)
Yup.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:38.879)
They never name peppers like very gentle animals, do they?
Unknown Speaker (00:01:43.040)
It's always gotta be something aggressive and poisonous.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:45.200)
I think generally, venomous.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:47.040)
Well, I mean, it is a poison, you know, like, isn't it?
Unknown Speaker (00:01:49.840)
Is it?
Unknown Speaker (00:01:50.239)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:50.480)
I don't think it is.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:51.120)
It's capsaicin is like a self-defense mechanism for the fruits of these plants.
Unknown Speaker (00:01:56.719)
So if animals don't eat it, they know not to because it hurts them.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:00.400)
Right, right, right.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:01.359)
We're the only animal dumb enough to be like, just see how cool we can be.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:05.040)
Cause it tastes good.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:05.920)
You feel, you feel flush.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:07.760)
You feel alive.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:08.879)
Absolutely.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:09.759)
I stopped doing LSD to focus on peppers.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:12.319)
I don't know if there are any that are named after cuddly animals.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:15.439)
I can't speak to that, but I was looking through a list of peppers,
Unknown Speaker (00:02:18.879)
uh, just sort of like an anticipation of like, what, what, what, what kind of ballpark?
Unknown Speaker (00:02:23.599)
Yeah, what kind of ballpark?
Unknown Speaker (00:02:24.479)
Where should I start?
Unknown Speaker (00:02:25.280)
Let me get a couple of goals.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:27.520)
And I was just scrolling through this giant list.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:29.919)
There was a pepper that just straight up looks like a dick.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:32.240)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:32.639)
It is crazy.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:33.360)
And it's called like a Peter pepper.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:34.960)
Well, that's, that's a little bit on the nose, guys.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:37.280)
I wouldn't have believed that existed if like, it wasn't like, nope, this is real here.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:41.039)
Are pictures of it?
Unknown Speaker (00:02:41.759)
It is a strain of pepper.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:43.199)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:43.360)
It's like, wow, how did that happen?
Unknown Speaker (00:02:44.800)
I would like a pepper that is multicolored, uh, and shaped like a horn and you could call
Unknown Speaker (00:02:50.159)
it my little pepper.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:51.120)
That would be great.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:52.080)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:52.319)
I'll work on that.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:53.039)
I'll cross-pollinate.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:53.759)
Do that.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:54.159)
Do that.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:54.560)
Get that going.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:55.199)
If you're going to start growing peppers, you better start growing novelty peppers.
Unknown Speaker (00:02:58.639)
That might be a little bit outside of my expertise and my green thumb abilities, but we'll try.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:03.120)
Uh, I do not know a lot about growing peppers, but I do know a lot about Alex Jones and that's
Unknown Speaker (00:03:07.439)
what this show is about.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:08.240)
And I don't know anything about either.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:10.400)
And you shall learn.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:11.439)
I shall.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:12.080)
I'll tell you what I know.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:13.439)
Um, so Jordan, today we are going back to the past.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:16.879)
We're going back to 2012, uh, to continue our, uh, looking into what Alex did, uh, did
Unknown Speaker (00:03:22.000)
in the aftermath of Sandy Hook and how his reporting has taken shape and has been molding.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:28.879)
Um, but before we get to that, I have to give a shout out to some people who have signed
Unknown Speaker (00:03:32.960)
up and are supporting the show.

A-R-J-U-N.
Unknown Speaker (00:03:58.639)
That could be.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:00.319)
I like to pronounce it that way.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:01.599)

Thank you Nick.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:09.759)
Nick or Nike?
Unknown Speaker (00:04:11.120)
Are you sure it's not Nike?
Unknown Speaker (00:04:12.080)
It could be Nike.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:13.120)
You could be mispronouncing all of these.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:14.960)
Literally Karan.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:16.319)
Uh, I believe that's her real name.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:18.240)
Could be.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:18.720)
Jimebo.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:19.360)
Jimebo.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:19.920)
Jimebo.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:21.519)
I might be way off.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:22.480)
But if I am, again, I apologize.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:24.800)
Hey.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:25.120)
And then we're done with it.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:26.160)
Then we're done.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:27.920)
Uh, next we have someone who donated a little bit of an elevated level.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:31.120)
We appreciate it very much.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:32.319)
So Trisha, thank you so much.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:33.759)
You are now a globalist.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:35.519)
I'm a policy wonk.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:36.720)
Four stars.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:37.519)
Go home to your mother and tell her you're brilliant.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:39.519)
Someone, someone sodomite sent me a bucket of poop.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:42.160)
Daddy Shark.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:44.560)
Thank you so much, Trisha.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:45.600)
Thank you, Trisha.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:46.639)
And finally, we have somebody who donated a little bit of an even more elevated level.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:50.720)
Who is doing this?
Unknown Speaker (00:04:51.759)
That oh so very much.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:52.959)
So Keith S, thank you so much.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:55.279)
You are now a technocrat.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:56.959)
I'm a policy wonk.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:58.079)
Four stars.
Unknown Speaker (00:04:58.959)
Go home to your mother and tell her you're brilliant.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:00.959)
Someone, someone sodomite sent me a bucket of poop.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:03.600)
Daddy Shark.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:04.160)
Bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp Jar Jar Binks has a Caribbean black accent.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:10.319)
He's a loser.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:11.519)
Little, little titty baby.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:13.439)
I don't want to hate black people.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:15.040)
I renounce Jesus Christ.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:16.879)
Thank you so much, Keith.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:17.920)
Thank you very much, Keith.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:19.040)
If you're out there listening and you're thinking, hey, I like what these guys do.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:21.839)
I'd like to support the show.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:23.040)
You can do that by going to our website, hitting that button that says support the show.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:26.160)
We would appreciate it.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:26.959)
Please do.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:27.600)
Also, apologies.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:28.639)
We have to say this every now and again.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:30.079)
We are about a month behind in terms of shout outs.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:33.439)
And that's just because there are a lot of people out there who are very generous and
Unknown Speaker (00:05:37.759)
are very supportive and we appreciate it.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:39.199)
And I'm sorry, I don't want to do a half hour of policy wonk things.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:43.920)
And I don't want to lump a ton of people in with one sound effect.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:46.639)
It kind of cheapens it for everybody.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:48.879)
Everybody needs their own individual thing.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:51.120)
I think we're at the maximum amount that we can do with any one episode while still giving
Unknown Speaker (00:05:55.120)
everybody their place.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:56.079)
Exactly.
Unknown Speaker (00:05:56.560)
Otherwise we're just like, let's get through these donors, which is not how you treat people
Unknown Speaker (00:06:00.879)
who care about you.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:02.160)
Yeah, that's an asshole thing to do.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:04.079)
So apologies that there's a little bit of a delay, but we appreciate your patience.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:10.560)
Yes, we do.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:11.519)
So today we're going over December 20th, 2012 and a little bit of the 21st.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:17.199)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:17.439)
The reason we're only doing...
Unknown Speaker (00:06:18.240)
World's over.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:18.959)
Well, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:19.680)
The world ended.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:20.720)
The reason that we're only doing a little bit of the 21st is because we've already done
Unknown Speaker (00:06:23.519)
that episode.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:24.720)
You can find it on our feed.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:27.759)
Somewhere.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:28.319)
It's back there.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:29.040)
It's somewhere.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:29.680)
We did that episode and it's mostly Alex talking to David Icke about how the world isn't ending,
Unknown Speaker (00:06:33.839)
but there are reptilian overlords and it's very convoluted.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:37.680)
Well, yeah, of course.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:38.319)
But most of Alex's discussion was that day about the Mayan apocalypse stuff.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:43.519)
So he doesn't talk too much about Sandy Hook, but there were a couple of clips that were
Unknown Speaker (00:06:48.000)
from that episode that I've pulled just as a reminder so we don't skip entirely over
Unknown Speaker (00:06:53.600)
the 21st.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:54.319)
He did say that the Mayans were crisis actors who predicted the end of the world.
Unknown Speaker (00:06:59.120)
Or maybe they were trying to change the timeline.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:01.759)
Oh, that's true.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:02.480)
We did learn that.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:03.279)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:03.600)
We learned that from Pierre Sabac.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:05.519)
Ah, Pierre.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:07.839)
Trey Maul.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:10.959)
So in this first clip, we find where Alex's editorial position is here on the beginning
Unknown Speaker (00:07:16.480)
of December 20th.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:18.079)
In this system, being a winner, according to the establishment, is deceiving people.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:23.600)
Playing you like you're dumb.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:25.120)
And only when you're unconscious, only when you don't question, only when you're simple
Unknown Speaker (00:07:30.079)
minded on purpose, only when you're willfully ignorant.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:33.040)
Can they get away with this on you?
Unknown Speaker (00:07:36.879)
Just like Connecticut having the four strongest gun laws.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:39.439)
He tried to buy guns not once, not twice, not three times.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:41.839)
We now learn five times the month before he supposedly did it.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:44.959)
Even if you believe the official fable narrative Easter Bunny story.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:49.519)
Isn't that how many times Peter denied Jesus?
Unknown Speaker (00:07:51.759)
I'm not sure exactly.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:52.800)
I have to brush up on my theology.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:54.639)
Gotcha.
Unknown Speaker (00:07:55.199)
Um, but, uh, so we have Alex coming out very clearly early on that the, uh, the official
Unknown Speaker (00:08:00.959)
story is a Easter Bunny story.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:02.720)
It's a fable.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:03.519)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:03.839)
Um, so, you know, you don't like to hear this the day after, because on the 19th, where
Unknown Speaker (00:08:08.480)
we last left off the investigation, he was starting to suggest that, uh, the father who
Unknown Speaker (00:08:13.360)
was interviewed, uh, was faking his grief and that people needed to investigate that.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:18.160)
Yeah, exactly.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:18.800)
So for him to jump in here on the 20th and be like, this story is a fable, an Easter
Unknown Speaker (00:08:22.480)
Bunny tale, it's not good.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:24.480)
No, I don't.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:25.120)
I'm not excited about that, but he does spend most of the time at the beginning of the show
Unknown Speaker (00:08:29.120)
just talking about the establishment and the man and the system.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:32.000)
You got to watch out for globalists.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:33.600)
They're bad.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:34.240)
They're everywhere, but it's all in sort of the, the ways you kind of expect, you know,
Unknown Speaker (00:08:37.759)
in the Alex Jonesy ways.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:39.120)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:39.519)
And he's gone hard, uh, as he has been already to just gun defense, gun defense.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:45.120)
So, and in our, uh, uh, ongoing segments, uh, ways that Alex portended his own descent
Unknown Speaker (00:08:53.440)
into stupidity, he did say that the way that you win is by deceiving.
Unknown Speaker (00:08:58.000)
And the only way that they can do that is if you are willfully, willfully ignorant.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:02.720)
So it does kind of suggest that we're talking about him now.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:06.240)
Um, so he starts the show on that sort of note and he gets, he gets pretty, uh, standard
Unknown Speaker (00:09:12.480)
Alex Jonesy.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:13.759)
And then he starts taking calls pretty early, which I'm not sure why he did that.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:17.600)
It's kind of uncommon, uh, for him to actually want to and fulfill his, uh, promise to get
Unknown Speaker (00:09:22.960)
to calls.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:23.519)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:23.919)
But he takes some calls.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:25.120)
Um, and in this first clip, uh, this caller is talking about how back in the day police
Unknown Speaker (00:09:30.000)
used to act differently.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:31.600)
Um, and then Alex makes a declaration beat black people up.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:35.279)
Well, wait, no, that's not different.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:36.720)
Well, it's actually interesting cause that kind of relates to Alex's, uh, you'll see.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:41.120)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:41.919)
When I would be walking down the street in my own neighborhood, I would often be stopped
Unknown Speaker (00:09:46.320)
as a, as a young man and, uh, and have my pockets emptied and ID demanded of me and
Unknown Speaker (00:09:52.080)
things like this randomly.
Unknown Speaker (00:09:54.000)
Now this kind of thing has evolved now to, uh, serious searches, actually seizing people
Unknown Speaker (00:10:00.159)
and things like that.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:00.559)
Oh no, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:01.279)
They've had something like a half a million searches a year now in New York city where
Unknown Speaker (00:10:05.600)
they just, just street searches where they're now pulling pants off women.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:10.480)
They're now, I mean, this is the new deal where you line up, I'm shoving my hand up
Unknown Speaker (00:10:14.879)
you and this is the new freedom.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:16.720)
In fact, the new handshake in America will probably become just bending over.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:20.000)
I mean, I'm not kidding.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:20.799)
Go ahead.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:21.600)
So this caller is describing something from his childhood and he doesn't sound like a
Unknown Speaker (00:10:25.039)
young man.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:25.840)
Um, and then Alex is pretending that, uh, now things are getting real bad in New York
Unknown Speaker (00:10:30.399)
city and he's trying to do that to suggest that the globalists are trying to bring in
Unknown Speaker (00:10:34.320)
martial law here.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:35.679)
So this is bullshit because Alex is presenting police behavior in New York as being indicative
Unknown Speaker (00:10:41.519)
of the coming martial law and police state.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:43.440)
But as he does so frequently, what he's doing is presenting a warp version of reality and
Unknown Speaker (00:10:47.600)
completely erasing all context from the conversation.
Unknown Speaker (00:10:50.159)
In this case, what Alex is talking about is the stop and frisk policy that the NYPD operated
Unknown Speaker (00:10:54.879)
under to a particularly troubling extent from the early two thousands to about 2013.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:00.159)
The policy was an outgrowth of the broken windows policing ideology that held the areas
Unknown Speaker (00:11:04.480)
where petty crimes were higher served as Petri dishes in which larger, more serious crimes
Unknown Speaker (00:11:09.120)
would naturally spring forth.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:10.879)
Following that logic, the police prioritize stopping petty crimes like public urination,
Unknown Speaker (00:11:15.039)
public transit fare evasion, and the like thinking that doing so would create an environment
Unknown Speaker (00:11:19.120)
where more serious crime wouldn't take hold.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:21.279)
How did that go?
Unknown Speaker (00:11:22.240)
Didn't go great.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:22.960)
Oh, that's the public facing part of the argument.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:25.919)
In reality, it was just a way to shake down and terrorize minorities.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:29.759)
In 2010, a police officer named Adrian Schoolcraft leaked secretly recorded tapes of police roll
Unknown Speaker (00:11:34.720)
call meetings in the 81st district of the Bedford Stuyvesant area that clearly show
Unknown Speaker (00:11:40.480)
the commanding officers explicitly telling their officers that they were going to be
Unknown Speaker (00:11:44.320)
in trouble if they didn't reach their quotas of tickets and reports filed.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:48.320)
Schoolcraft was detained and forcefully held at a mental hospital for six days in retaliation
Unknown Speaker (00:11:52.879)
for leaking the tapes, ultimately being forced to pay $7,000 for his own imprisonment.
Unknown Speaker (00:11:57.919)
At the practice's peak in 2011, 685,724 people were stopped and frisked in New York.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:05.279)
Of these people, 88% were completely innocent of any crime, a number that is super consistent
Unknown Speaker (00:12:10.399)
with yearly data analyzed by the New York Civil Liberties Union.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:13.919)
In the years between 2002 and 2013, when the program was in full effect, the ratio of innocent
Unknown Speaker (00:12:19.360)
people being stopped was never lower than 80%.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:22.559)
Interestingly, in all those years you want to look at them, at any of them, the percentage
Unknown Speaker (00:12:26.559)
of people being stopped and frisked who happened to be white was never higher than 12%.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:30.960)
Odd.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:31.679)
Which is strange considering that New York City is approximately 44% white demographically.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:36.320)
Seems strange.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:37.120)
Very.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:37.600)
Seems out of control, really.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:39.039)
In 2007, 85% of the people stopped were black or Latino.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:43.279)
In 2008, 85%.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:45.679)
In 2009, 87% with the same percentage in 2011 and 2012.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:50.399)
When Alex talks about how the police shake people down in New York and doesn't bring
Unknown Speaker (00:12:53.759)
this into the conversation, he's lying by omission.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:56.639)
And he's doing so to express a white supremacist position.
Unknown Speaker (00:12:59.679)
He's totally right that the police were way out of line in how they treated civilians
Unknown Speaker (00:13:03.120)
in New York.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:03.840)
But to pretend that an essential piece of the story wasn't how the policy of stop and
Unknown Speaker (00:13:08.240)
frisk was specifically used as a weapon against minority communities is the definition of
Unknown Speaker (00:13:12.559)
being right for the wrong reasons, which makes him wrong.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:15.919)
Yeah, but it still boils down to his and I'm sure his caller's same complaint, which is
Unknown Speaker (00:13:21.519)
the underlying complaint is, they're going to treat me like a black.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:26.960)
Like, that's really what they're bitching about, essentially, right?
Unknown Speaker (00:13:30.559)
Well, I thought about that.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:32.480)
I really did.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:33.279)
Because I thought about how that could fit into and make sense of Alex saying this.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:38.240)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:38.720)
But if he did, he would say those things.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:41.440)
He would talk about how they're targeting minority communities as a brainlude to target
Unknown Speaker (00:13:45.360)
us.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:46.080)
That's fair.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:46.559)
Because that would help make that argument.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:50.080)
He just wants that piece of it completely left out because it opens a door his sort
Unknown Speaker (00:13:54.559)
of arguments can't handle.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:56.240)
Which is the actual intent of this.
Unknown Speaker (00:13:58.159)
Yeah, the whole point is to terrorize and destroy black communities.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:02.720)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:03.200)
And hopefully catch people on petty warrants and stuff like that.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:06.720)
In order to get money for the departments.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:08.720)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:08.960)
And your quotas being filled and stuff like that.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:12.240)
It's almost like they turned the police force into some sort of shakedown.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:19.600)
That's crazy.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:20.399)
In order to make money?
Unknown Speaker (00:14:22.000)
In order to make money, they destroyed the reputation of policing in America almost entirely.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:28.080)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:28.559)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:28.799)
Good work, guys.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:29.279)
So Alex's argument, like I said, I can't stress enough.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:32.000)
He's right about the sort of the picture of police being out of line.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:37.360)
Yeah, for sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:37.600)
But he's wrong about it being the globalist.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:40.639)
Not that.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:41.519)
It's an important distinction that needs to come up every now and again on this show.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:45.200)
That just because he's spiritually right about something, he could be entirely wrong at the
Unknown Speaker (00:14:50.639)
same time.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:52.080)
So he's taken these callers.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:54.799)
And at this point, he gets a call who wants to talk about Sandy Hook.
Unknown Speaker (00:14:58.799)
And this guy has an interesting piece of the story that he wants to report.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:03.440)
And Alex allows him to do so, which isn't good.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:06.240)
The Sandy, the supposed Sandy Hook shooter Adam Lanza was two handguns, not a Bushmaster
Unknown Speaker (00:15:12.720)
assault rifle.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:13.519)
Well, no, that's what they first said.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:14.799)
They arrested a bunch of different people and those stories don't check out.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:18.320)
And then now there's a lot of other suspicious stuff going on.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:20.960)
And I said on record, the Dark Knight was programming.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:24.399)
Now we've learned they mailed out Dark Knight T-shirts to random people in New York and
Unknown Speaker (00:15:29.440)
Connecticut.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:30.000)
There's an article up at Infowars.com.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:31.919)
No, that confirmed section of Gotham renamed Sandy Hook in latest Dark Knight release.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:37.919)
And then they sent out maps as part of a promotion to media and others saying target Sandy Hook.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:45.200)
They sent out Bane command orders to Bane's army to attack Sandy Hook.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:50.399)
And by the way, Adan Salazar stayed up all yesterday, all last night.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:55.120)
He has bloodshot eyes to do the research on this.
Unknown Speaker (00:15:58.080)
And the Gothamist newspaper in New York picked it up.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:00.799)
People are freaking out over this.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:02.480)
People just came to work high.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:04.480)
Orders from Bane.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:06.159)
Kids and people, teenagers saying attack Sandy Hook.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:09.840)
What do you think of that?
Unknown Speaker (00:16:11.360)
Absolutely, Alex.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:12.799)
It's all right out there in the open and if enough publicity, enough of it can be given
Unknown Speaker (00:16:18.080)
out to the public, maybe it can turn things for a while.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:20.960)
This thing has PSYOP written all over it.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:22.879)
I said Batman is the trigger for mass shootings on record dozens of times.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:28.720)
Cool.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:29.220)
That is super easily explained.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:31.379)
Is that a win?
Unknown Speaker (00:16:32.100)
We've talked about this before and I apologize.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:34.259)
I don't have the guy's specific name or his job, but one of the people who worked in like
Unknown Speaker (00:16:38.340)
set design and graphic work on the Dark Knight is from Connecticut.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:43.139)
He's from Newtown, Connecticut.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:44.899)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:45.379)
The idea of him putting the name of his city on a map isn't...
Unknown Speaker (00:16:48.419)
It was just more fun.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:49.220)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:49.460)
As I remember from the last time I looked into that aspect of this, that was why that happened.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:55.139)
It's very, very easy to...
Unknown Speaker (00:16:56.580)
And all the other stuff is misreporting.
Unknown Speaker (00:16:58.580)
The idea that they sent out...
Unknown Speaker (00:17:00.179)
Bane sent out orders to attack Sandy Hook.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:03.139)
He did though.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:04.339)
He did say that they need to take control of their city.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:07.460)
Well, look, that's the least important thing I think I want to talk about here.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:10.500)
Wait, isn't that Dark Knight Returns?
Unknown Speaker (00:17:12.740)
Dark Knight Rises.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:13.779)
Dark Knight Rises.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:14.900)
Apologies.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:15.380)
I know.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:15.859)
I'm getting my Tim Burton's all in a tizzy.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:19.299)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:20.259)
It's fine.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:20.900)
That's not Tim Burton.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:22.099)
Christopher Nolan.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:22.660)
No, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:23.779)
Batman Returns is Tim Burton.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:25.299)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:25.700)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:26.420)
See what I'm saying?
Unknown Speaker (00:17:27.220)
Exactly.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:27.619)
It's all getting mixed up.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:28.819)
Um, I think...
Unknown Speaker (00:17:29.619)
I heard this Spider-Man.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:30.900)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:32.339)
I think that that Batman stuff is really just...
Unknown Speaker (00:17:35.140)
It's very thin.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:35.940)
It's very stupid.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:37.299)
And it's just indicative of how now he's trying to bring in as much of the conspiracy stuff
Unknown Speaker (00:17:41.539)
that he hears into the narrative as he can.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:44.500)
And that's just sort of an intent to muddy the water and make things seem more suspicious
Unknown Speaker (00:17:50.339)
than they are with hearsay and bullshit.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:52.500)
Hey, do you know what's even crazier?
Unknown Speaker (00:17:53.859)
They didn't even send out physical maps like we know them, you know, like directions.
Unknown Speaker (00:17:58.740)
They actually sent out the single from the Yeah, Yeah, Yes maps.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:03.220)
Do you know when that came out?
Unknown Speaker (00:18:04.740)
When?
Unknown Speaker (00:18:05.380)
9-11.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:06.259)
Oh, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:07.460)
Exactly.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:08.740)
It's all together.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:10.099)
That's right.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:10.500)
And I used to play that on Rock Band.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:12.099)
Exactly.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:13.140)
So you did it.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:14.019)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:15.140)
So the more important thing I want to talk about is that this caller is repeating a piece
Unknown Speaker (00:18:18.500)
of incomplete information that he picked up somewhere and Alex is doubling down on it
Unknown Speaker (00:18:22.420)
to create disbelief in his listeners about what happened at Sandy Hook.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:25.299)
And I'm not talking about the Batman stuff.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:28.099)
I'm talking about they found him with two handguns.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:30.579)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:30.819)
Adam Lanza had two handguns.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:32.660)
They didn't even have a Bushmaster rifle like they say.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:35.220)
Well, then he's fine.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:36.339)
If you read the police report on the shooting, it's very clear.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:39.059)
Quote, On the shooter's person was a loaded semi-automatic Sig Sauer P-269 millimeter
Unknown Speaker (00:18:44.900)
pistol and additional ammunition.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:47.059)
Located near the shooter was a partially loaded Glock 20 10 millimeter semi-automatic pistol
Unknown Speaker (00:18:51.859)
that appeared to be jammed.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:53.299)
So that explains the two handguns that the caller is talking about.
Unknown Speaker (00:18:56.500)
However, the next line explains that, quote, a Bushmaster model XM15E26 rifle was located
Unknown Speaker (00:19:03.779)
some distance away from the shooter.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:05.539)
The rifle's shoulder strap was attached to the front, but disconnected to the butt of
Unknown Speaker (00:19:08.980)
the rifle.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:09.700)
The disconnected rear portion was the result of a failed nut attachment.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:13.140)
It's unknown if the nut failed when the rifle was being used or as the result of being dropped
Unknown Speaker (00:19:17.380)
or thrown to the floor.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:18.740)
So Adam Land's had clearly been using that weapon as evidenced by all sorts of other
Unknown Speaker (00:19:22.660)
forensic evidence, but it appears that he'd thrown it to the side mid-shooting, possibly
Unknown Speaker (00:19:26.579)
because the strap broke.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:27.779)
It's unclear exactly why.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:29.859)
There's also people who suggested that it had jammed.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:32.980)
That's not entirely clear because they were able to...
Unknown Speaker (00:19:36.500)
The people who were investigating it were able to fire the gun after the fact.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:39.859)
So it doesn't appear that it was critically jammed.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:42.259)
But for one reason or another, he ended up throwing that aside and favoring handguns
Unknown Speaker (00:19:47.220)
after that point.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:48.019)
It could just be a crazy thing in the moment of like, I'm sick of all of this mass killing.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:53.220)
I want to see the whites of the eyes.
Unknown Speaker (00:19:55.779)
Anything is possible, or it could be as simple as the strap broke and simplicity and comfort
Unknown Speaker (00:20:00.900)
or whatever.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:01.460)
There's a hundred possible explanations for why that gun was found a little further away
Unknown Speaker (00:20:05.700)
from him than the two handguns.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:07.460)
But this guy is pretending that there wasn't a Bushmaster rifle there at all, which is
Unknown Speaker (00:20:12.500)
incredibly irresponsible and inappropriate.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:14.980)
So Lanza also had a ton of ammo on him, on his person, including one shotgun shell, even
Unknown Speaker (00:20:21.940)
though he didn't have a shotgun with him.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:24.019)
There were other shotgun shells found around the scene, which police theorized he had dropped.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:27.859)
But it still raises the question, why the ammo was there if he didn't have a shotgun?
Unknown Speaker (00:20:33.059)
If you just read a little bit further in the police report, quote, recovered from the car
Unknown Speaker (00:20:36.579)
was an Itzmatch Sega 12, 12-gauge shotgun with two magazines containing a total of 24
Unknown Speaker (00:20:42.420)
rounds of ammunition.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:43.299)
That would make sense then why he had shotgun ammunition.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:46.019)
He just left the shotgun in the car.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:47.380)
He just left in the shotgun in the car.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:48.500)
Which I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:49.059)
Maybe it's just he couldn't carry it.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:50.500)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:51.059)
I don't pretend to understand.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:52.500)
Or maybe he thought he would get away and that was there for when he gets back to the
Unknown Speaker (00:20:56.339)
car.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:56.660)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:20:57.059)
Any of these things are possible, but we'll never know exactly the answer.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:00.980)
No, because he's dead.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:03.779)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:04.500)
So he used a completely different rifle to kill his mother, but that gun was found left
Unknown Speaker (00:21:08.900)
at the scene of that crime and was recovered by police as well.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:11.299)
He had a lot of guns.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:13.460)
And there were even more guns found in her house that she loved.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:17.380)
She had a lot of guns.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:18.259)
But isn't that too many guns?
Unknown Speaker (00:21:21.940)
Isn't that too many guns?
Unknown Speaker (00:21:23.539)
I'm not comfortable making a hard determination on what is too many.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:27.299)
I'm not the one who's going to say...
Unknown Speaker (00:21:28.660)
My feeling tells me it's a lot.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:30.579)
It's a lot of guns.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:31.700)
It's a lot.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:32.259)
It's a lot of guns.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:33.859)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:34.500)
So that idea that this caller is suggesting to Alex is irresponsible, inaccurate, and
Unknown Speaker (00:21:40.339)
very easily explained.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:42.740)
And Alex is allowing it to be a part of what's being presented as this story.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:46.740)
As he said at the beginning of the episode, this is a fairy tale.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:49.220)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:49.539)
They say, you had a bushmaster.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:50.660)
He just had two handguns on him.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:52.259)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:52.660)
That sort of nonsense.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:53.700)
It allows for the muddying of the waters.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:56.019)
And it's bullshit.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:56.900)
It's how Alex builds these narratives.
Unknown Speaker (00:21:59.059)
And we're seeing it happen in real time.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:01.140)
Some of this is the caller's influence, perhaps, but Alex would be ready to take this from
Unknown Speaker (00:22:06.180)
anybody.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:06.740)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:07.539)
And it's still on him what he accepts, you know?
Unknown Speaker (00:22:10.339)
There is a certain part of me, because Alex has difficulty taking a lot of calls, there's
Unknown Speaker (00:22:17.380)
a part of me that wonders if there could be some sort of like, where are they now, VH1
Unknown Speaker (00:22:21.700)
special on people who call into Alex Jones.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:24.819)
Like, is this guy still denying Sandy Hook?
Unknown Speaker (00:22:27.859)
Like, I want to know more about this idiot and what it is he's doing with his life.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:32.259)
Yeah, I bet he is.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:33.859)
Yeah, that's fair, that's fair, you don't need a special, that's fair, that's fair.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:40.339)
Yeah, I bet that there's not a great rehabilitation percentage of people who buy into Alex's
Unknown Speaker (00:22:48.500)
narratives.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:49.140)
I believe that a lot of people probably can figure things out and right the ship, but
Unknown Speaker (00:22:53.059)
I bet it's not easy.
Unknown Speaker (00:22:56.259)
If I was going to take a guess, I would say it's like a large percentage, it's like a
Unknown Speaker (00:23:01.299)
churn, you know, like a certain percentage leave every year or whatever, and they're
Unknown Speaker (00:23:06.339)
just like, I'm done with this shit.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:08.339)
A certain percentage go even further and become white nationalist militia people, and then
Unknown Speaker (00:23:13.700)
everybody else just kind of keeps staying in the fluctuating middle.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:17.299)
In the dryer cycle?
Unknown Speaker (00:23:18.579)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:19.700)
Yeah, it's possible.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:20.660)
I don't know, I don't know if there will ever be a good study on that, but I'll accept
Unknown Speaker (00:23:24.420)
whatever you're, I'll accept your policy.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:26.180)
My rampant dumb speculation with no information whatsoever?
Unknown Speaker (00:23:30.900)
For sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:31.380)
I'm like Alex listening to a caller.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:32.740)
That sounds great, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:33.940)
So in this next clip, Alex gets back to the Mayan apocalypse and how it's not real, but
Unknown Speaker (00:23:39.140)
everyone thinks it is or something.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:41.380)
Because of the globalist?
Unknown Speaker (00:23:42.180)
Not entirely sure what his angle on this is, but it's wild.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:45.220)
Some schools in the US are closed today because of end of the world fears.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:49.460)
That doesn't sound right.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:50.420)
That's not entirely true.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:51.940)
It was a school district in Michigan that they were about to go on winter break.
Unknown Speaker (00:23:55.859)
They only had like a week left of classes, and they just canceled classes because there
Unknown Speaker (00:23:59.619)
were fears of school shooting because there were rumors being spread that there was going
Unknown Speaker (00:24:03.700)
to be one.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:04.500)
And then in addition to the Mayan apocalypse stuff, there's like, we, these kids are too
Unknown Speaker (00:24:09.619)
distracted.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:10.420)
We're just going on break early.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:11.779)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:12.339)
It wasn't because like we're afraid the end of the world is going to happen.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:15.380)
No, we're afraid that there's going to be a mass shooting.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:18.420)
There were threats and everybody is wild.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:21.619)
Not entirely.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:22.980)
That's a little bit unfair because the article that I read about it, they weren't afraid
Unknown Speaker (00:24:26.740)
that there was going to be a school shooting because they had looked into these rumors
Unknown Speaker (00:24:30.980)
and stuff like that and found that nothing was substantiated.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:33.779)
But the reason that they ended up closing the school is because they're like, we're
Unknown Speaker (00:24:36.900)
being ineffective in any teaching.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:38.900)
The kids are too distracted and preoccupied with these ideas that, you know, just because
Unknown Speaker (00:24:45.059)
you find that a rumor is unsubstantiated doesn't mean that the kids aren't going to
Unknown Speaker (00:24:48.259)
emotionally feel the fear and the anxiety and the distraction.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:51.700)
No, it spreads like wildfire.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:53.220)
Yeah, so the school district was like, you guys are going on holiday break anyway.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:56.980)
Enjoy.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:57.380)
Have another week.
Unknown Speaker (00:24:58.420)
We'll get back to classes on the other, back in, we'll see you in 2013.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:02.579)
Right, right, right, right.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:03.460)
Which I don't think is the same as closing over end of the world fears.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:08.339)
Terry, what's three plus three?
Unknown Speaker (00:25:10.420)
We're going to start doing that.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:11.700)
I don't want to die.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:12.660)
Okay, cool.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:13.220)
We're going to go on break a little bit.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:14.900)
We're going to, yeah, no, we're not going to do this.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:17.059)
Yeah, so in this next clip, Alex gets really defensive about everybody thinking that he
Unknown Speaker (00:25:22.500)
thinks that the end of the world is coming tomorrow.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:25.460)
Folks, it is not the end of the world.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:26.980)
And I've tried to get that out a million times.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:29.140)
And I knew it would happen this morning.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:31.140)
Let's turn and talk radio locally.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:33.059)
Oh, Alex Jones, the world's ending tomorrow.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:35.059)
I wonder what he's going to do.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:36.259)
I'm just like, man, that is really a jealous way to act, knowing that I've hammered the
Unknown Speaker (00:25:43.460)
fact for years that 2012 is a fraud.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:46.500)
I've been asked thousands of times by people off air and on air what 2012 is.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:51.539)
And I've shed on air hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of times, literally.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:55.220)
Everyone knows my position forever.
Unknown Speaker (00:25:57.779)
I think a lot of people don't know your position.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:00.819)
I think that's the issue.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:01.859)
I don't know how anyone's supposed to know what you've told people off air, except the
Unknown Speaker (00:26:05.380)
people you were talking to.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:07.220)
And yes, he has been saying pretty consistently around this time that it's bullshit.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:12.099)
But at the same time, we know what he did about Y2K.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:14.579)
Yeah, that's true.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:15.299)
It's totally reasonable for someone to be like, I know what you did years back.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:19.779)
Last summer.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:20.339)
I wonder if your behavior's changed.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:22.660)
Right, right, right, right.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:23.539)
You seem like the kind of guy who would be in on...
Unknown Speaker (00:26:25.700)
You kind of blow with the wind.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:26.980)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:27.700)
This is one time where I do kind of want the world retroactively to have ended in 2012
Unknown Speaker (00:26:33.859)
just to spite him.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:35.220)
Just for him to be wrong.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:36.339)
The one time he's like, it's not a conspiracy.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:37.859)
Yeah, the one time he's like, this is nonsense and I'm not going to buy into these bullshit
Unknown Speaker (00:26:42.420)
conspiracy theories.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:43.539)
And then we still get to watch him burn in flames.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:46.180)
That'd be great.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:47.220)
Well, I guess fortunately it didn't go that way because I think we would have had some
Unknown Speaker (00:26:52.259)
problems ourselves.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:53.140)
Eh, I suppose.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:54.339)
I saw that John Cusack movie, 2012.
Unknown Speaker (00:26:57.380)
So Alex just keeps taking calls and it's super bizarre because generally speaking, when I've
Unknown Speaker (00:27:04.740)
listened to these episodes, he'll say he's going to take calls, he'll yell about something
Unknown Speaker (00:27:08.980)
and ramble for about an hour, get to the end of the show, maybe take one call and then
Unknown Speaker (00:27:13.539)
be like, we'll get to you next time, that sort of thing.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:16.259)
So to hear him take multiple calls at what is, you know, fairly early in the show, uh,
Unknown Speaker (00:27:22.019)
was bizarre.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:22.980)
Uh, and he gets this call from someone who suggests a guest for his show.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:27.380)
Robert in Texas, you're on the air.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:28.740)
Robert, real fast.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:29.539)
Go ahead.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:32.019)
Morgan.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:33.220)
Hi Morgan.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:33.619)
Go ahead, sir.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:34.420)
I'm gonna try to get to you.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:35.299)
Can you hear me?
Unknown Speaker (00:27:35.779)
Yeah, man, I sure do.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:38.019)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:38.980)
Have you ever heard of Jan Morgan?
Unknown Speaker (00:27:41.140)
No.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:42.339)
Oh, okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:42.740)
She's down in College Station.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:44.019)
She's got a couple of articles out.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:45.299)
She's a big gun, a fan.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:47.779)
And, um, I was hoping you'd heard of her.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:50.019)
She, she'd be good to have on your show.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:52.180)
I agree with you.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:52.819)
Do you have anything else you'd like to add?
Unknown Speaker (00:27:54.099)
Cause I'll hold you till after.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:55.460)
So I love the idea that like this guy's calling in.
Unknown Speaker (00:27:59.779)
He's like, Hey, there's this lady named Jan Morgan.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:02.339)
She loves guns.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:03.140)
I think she'll be good on your show.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:04.180)
I don't know who she is, but I agree with you.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:06.900)
I'm a big fan of the, I sure do.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:09.460)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:11.140)
I sure do.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:12.339)
But if you listen to regret in his voice,
Unknown Speaker (00:28:14.660)
It's not regret.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:15.460)
It's frustration with his phone system.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:17.220)
Like it's, and his callers, because they often don't know that he's gone to them.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:22.339)
He has a bad screening system and all that stuff.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:24.819)
So like, if you listen to it as much as I do, that frustration is there.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:28.740)
Oh, that might be why he never goes to calls.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:30.980)
Cause he knows his phone system sucks.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:32.740)
He knows he's just going to have to do that little conversation with somebody.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:35.619)
Can you hear me?
Unknown Speaker (00:28:36.259)
Can you hear me?
Unknown Speaker (00:28:36.900)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:37.400)
Alex, are you there?
Unknown Speaker (00:28:38.500)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:39.299)
Alex.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:39.859)
Hi.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:40.259)
That's the show.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:41.460)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:41.700)
Now you've wasted three seconds.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:42.900)
I could have been yelling about something.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:44.019)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:44.579)
So Jan Morgan is the owner of the Gun Cave Indoor Shooting Range in Hot Springs, Arkansas,
Unknown Speaker (00:28:50.579)
and is an official instructor licensed by the NRA.
Unknown Speaker (00:28:55.220)
Interestingly, it seems like she would be a fantastic fit as an Infowars guest,
Unknown Speaker (00:28:59.380)
seeing as in 2014, she banned all Muslims from her shooting range.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:02.900)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:04.019)
Saying that quote, this is more than enough loss of life on my home soil at the hands of Muslims
Unknown Speaker (00:29:09.380)
to substantiate my position that Muslims can and will follow the directives in their Quran
Unknown Speaker (00:29:14.099)
and kill here at home.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:16.579)
And she's in Arkansas of all places.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:19.299)
Hot Springs.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:20.339)
Never, never in my wildest.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:22.500)
She insisted that the first amendment did not include protections for Muslims and defended
Unknown Speaker (00:29:26.579)
her actions by citing verses from the Quran that she interpreted as being very scary.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:31.059)
Doesn't sound right.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:31.940)
She further related a story of a couple of men who came into her range recently.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:36.339)
Quote, two Muslims walked into my range last week with Allah Akbar ring tones and message
Unknown Speaker (00:29:41.619)
alert tones on their smartphones.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:43.779)
They spoke very little English.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:45.619)
One did not have proof of US citizenship, yet they wanted to rent and shoot guns.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:51.859)
They were constantly glancing towards the cameras in the range,
Unknown Speaker (00:29:54.740)
then looking at each other and speaking in their own language.
Unknown Speaker (00:29:58.339)
She went on to say that she was doing the only sensible thing here.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:01.700)
Quote, since I have no way of discerning which Muslims will or will not kill in the name
Unknown Speaker (00:30:06.180)
of their religion and the commands of their Quran, I choose to err on the side of caution.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:11.299)
Unfortunately, she failed to see the irony in this logic, seeing as it could be flipped
Unknown Speaker (00:30:14.819)
around super easily and used to literally take all guns from whatever group you want.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:18.660)
No, what?
Unknown Speaker (00:30:19.380)
Huh?
Unknown Speaker (00:30:19.779)
There's no real way to discern which white men are going to become members of violent
Unknown Speaker (00:30:22.819)
white nationalist groups.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:23.779)
So the government should err on the side of caution and disarm all white men.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:27.220)
It's almost like she's dumb.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:28.660)
I'm not advocating for that necessarily, but the argument uses identical logic to what
Unknown Speaker (00:30:33.380)
she's putting forth.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:34.259)
She's very stupid.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:35.619)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:36.019)
This is how this shit always goes.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:37.539)
It's the same thing we talked about in terms of Ted Nugent banning guns at his concert.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:41.539)
These people pretend to have a principled, absolute moral stand that the right to own
Unknown Speaker (00:30:45.460)
and hold guns is the most important part of being free and any attempt to restrict anyone's
Unknown Speaker (00:30:50.339)
access to guns is an attempt to take away all guns and demolish freedom.
Unknown Speaker (00:30:54.180)
Then as soon as they feel threatened, they equivocate, make qualifications and intellectualize
Unknown Speaker (00:30:58.740)
their way into restricting the very right they pretend to believe is sacrosanct.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:02.980)
These people are all liars.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:04.980)
Well, if she's saying that the First Amendment doesn't cover Muslims, which, yeah, fine.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:10.579)
If that's your saying, then get the fuck out.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:12.900)
We don't need you talking ever again.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:16.500)
Then she's also saying that the Second Amendment doesn't apply to Muslims because they're
Unknown Speaker (00:31:20.740)
not allowed in her gun store.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:23.299)
So they aren't legally allowed to carry guns.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:26.980)
She's essentially saying that Muslims cannot possibly be constitutional.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:31.539)
More or less, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:32.339)
Yeah, that's what she's saying.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:33.619)
Oh, also fun little thing.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:35.460)
Jan Morgan ran for the governorship of Arkansas in their 2018 election.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:39.220)
How'd she do?
Unknown Speaker (00:31:39.859)
In an attempt to raise money for her campaign, Jan set up an illegal raffle where people
Unknown Speaker (00:31:44.099)
would donate $50 to her campaign for a chance to win a handgun with her signature engraved
Unknown Speaker (00:31:49.700)
on it.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:50.500)
When legal questions started popping up, she refunded everyone's money, but it bears
Unknown Speaker (00:31:54.180)
mention because she thought that was a good idea to begin with.
Unknown Speaker (00:31:57.779)
Also, for someone running in just the Republican primary for this position.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:02.660)
How'd she do?
Unknown Speaker (00:32:03.299)
Her fundraising was pretty on point.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:05.460)
She brought in almost $200,000.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:07.539)
That is crazy.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:08.740)
Much of which came from political action committees which suspiciously share an address.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:13.140)
Arkansas Business Services, Arkansas Trade First, and Commerce in Action all gave the
Unknown Speaker (00:32:17.859)
maximum amount allowed to her, but also all seem to be the same people.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:22.019)
A group called Conduit for Action.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:24.740)
Conduit for money for her campaign.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:27.059)
Conduit for Action is a hard right political action committee which is super against Governor
Unknown Speaker (00:32:31.460)
Hutchinson, the person that she would be running against in the primary because though he's
Unknown Speaker (00:32:35.779)
a Republican, he's not as hard line as they want their governor to be.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:39.619)
They publish articles on their website like this one from just about a week ago.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:43.380)
Quote, Governor's tax plan to thwart constitution about Hutchinson's proposed increase in gasoline
Unknown Speaker (00:32:48.500)
and oil taxes.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:49.539)
That sounds like something that the founding fathers were really into.
Unknown Speaker (00:32:53.539)
During the election, they published multiple articles promoting Morgan's campaign, but
Unknown Speaker (00:32:57.299)
didn't disclose that they were supporting her through cloned political action committees,
Unknown Speaker (00:33:00.819)
which is shady as hell, but not illegal in Arkansas.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:03.299)
See now, isn't that a problem?
Unknown Speaker (00:33:05.299)
It is a problem.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:05.940)
It feels like that's a problem.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:07.779)
On the other hand, Alex would have loved her if she owned a pool supply store in Austin.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:13.299)
Then he never would have had to see young girls.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:16.420)
As I understand from all the information I was able to find, most of these are cloned
Unknown Speaker (00:33:21.700)
PAC's from Conduit for Action.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:25.700)
That really has to be illegal.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:27.059)
No, it's not illegal.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:27.859)
It's totally fine.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:28.579)
And then what's the point of having a maximum donation?
Unknown Speaker (00:33:31.619)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:32.660)
OK, there we go.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:33.619)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:34.019)
I don't know if laws have been changed since then, but I know there's been some discussion
Unknown Speaker (00:33:37.460)
about it because it is a really fucking weird thing to allow for the exact reason you brought
Unknown Speaker (00:33:42.900)
up.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:43.059)
Maximums don't matter.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:44.819)
So she lost the Republican primary, but she did get 30 percent of the vote, which is super
Unknown Speaker (00:33:49.460)
fucked up.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:50.099)
That's bananas.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:51.619)
As the Arkansas Times pointed out during the campaign, her campaign really never was about
Unknown Speaker (00:33:55.700)
winning the vote.
Unknown Speaker (00:33:56.900)
Quote, Jan Morgan may not technically win the Republican primary for governor by compiling
Unknown Speaker (00:34:01.779)
the most votes, but she's already won the race by driving Governor Hutchinson to a loud
Unknown Speaker (00:34:06.740)
declaration of his position to the farthest right reaches of the political spectrum.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:11.380)
By being in the race, she required Hutchinson to come out from the shadows and pander to
Unknown Speaker (00:34:15.460)
the further right parts of his base that would be stolen by Morgan being in the race.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:19.940)
Thus, his rhetoric towards the LGBT community and about women's rights became far more toxic
Unknown Speaker (00:34:24.820)
than it had been in previous campaign cycles.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:27.139)
And this, Jordan, is how the Overton window shifts.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:30.420)
Oh, she's a perfect example of that.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:34.500)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:35.539)
Jesus, what a dick.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:37.699)
She sucks.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:39.059)
I don't like her.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:39.780)
So you have these.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:40.820)
And she wasn't on Info Wars?
Unknown Speaker (00:34:42.500)
I don't know if she does have come on eventually.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:44.579)
I'm saying she's a perfect guest.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:45.860)
She is a perfect guest.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:47.059)
Yeah, I'm shocked she's not on right now.
Unknown Speaker (00:34:49.219)
I don't believe that all these political action committees necessarily even wanted her to
Unknown Speaker (00:34:53.139)
win, but they knew that that effect of having her in the race would force Hutchinson to
Unknown Speaker (00:34:57.619)
change some of the positions towards the harder right versions that they wanted to see.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:02.820)
So they were funneling money towards her in order to push him to the right.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:06.739)
Of course.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:08.420)
That's the intention.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:09.539)
That's how this works.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:11.059)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:11.300)
There's no way they would actually want her to win because obviously her first day in
Unknown Speaker (00:35:15.780)
office would be like, I'm banning the Constitution from covering anybody but white people.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:21.219)
What are you doing, ladies?
Unknown Speaker (00:35:22.500)
It would be tough.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:23.460)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:24.179)
She would not have a very successful term as governor.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:28.179)
I think she might get herself in a little bit of trouble that even hard right folk are
Unknown Speaker (00:35:32.579)
not super, super interested in.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:35.219)
So at this point in the episode, Alex just sort of treads water for a bit and it's pretty
Unknown Speaker (00:35:39.940)
boring.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:40.739)
And then he has a guest.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:42.579)
He gets a guest on the show, my friend.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:45.219)
And this guest is, I don't know how to describe him.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:49.619)
He's famous.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:50.340)
Derek Fisher, formerly of the Lakers.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:53.460)
It's not Derek Fisher.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:54.420)
It's not Derek Fisher.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:55.380)
No, but I did meet him once.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:56.980)
Did you?
Unknown Speaker (00:35:57.380)
I did.
Unknown Speaker (00:35:57.940)
Really?
Unknown Speaker (00:35:58.579)
Me and my dad went to a Lakers-Cabs preseason game years and years back and I met him on
Unknown Speaker (00:36:05.139)
the court.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:06.019)
Is he a good guy?
Unknown Speaker (00:36:07.139)
I don't remember.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:08.099)
I don't think anyone was mean to me except Shaq.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:11.219)
And Shaq wasn't even mean to me.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:13.059)
He was just too big.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:14.420)
No, I was, we got in early because we snuck in through like a back door so I could get
Unknown Speaker (00:36:18.820)
autographs.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:19.539)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:20.659)
And so I found like Kobe Bryant was there and I got his autograph and Eddie Jones, I
Unknown Speaker (00:36:26.900)
believe.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:27.380)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:27.699)
I got his autograph.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:28.980)
Derek Fisher walked up.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:29.940)
He's like, want my autograph?
Unknown Speaker (00:36:30.900)
I'm like, yeah, sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:33.139)
I got his autograph.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:34.019)
That's, that's rude.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:35.460)
I didn't, I was, I, I.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:36.900)
Derek Fisher wasn't a star, but he was still a very serviceable player.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:40.099)
Derek Fisher was, he was one of the people I did want the autograph.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:43.300)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:43.539)
I think it was Sean Rooks walked up.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:45.699)
That's fair.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:46.500)
That is fair.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:47.300)
It was some middling power forward who's still very talented, but someone who's an autograph
Unknown Speaker (00:36:51.780)
I did not, I wasn't interested in.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:53.940)
So then I'm getting these autographs from these people and I look over and Shaq is doing
Unknown Speaker (00:36:57.219)
free throw practice.
Unknown Speaker (00:36:58.500)
He's warming up, shooting free throws.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:00.179)
Throwing them just at the backboard, missing horrifically every time.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:04.099)
And I'm like, I could get Shaq's autograph.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:05.780)
I never imagined such a thing would be possible.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:08.420)
So I start wandering over towards Shaq, just the little boy on a basketball court.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:13.139)
I don't see anybody else.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:14.420)
I just see Shaq and then out of nowhere, his bodyguard gets in between us.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:18.340)
It's like, nah, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:20.739)
Shaq looks back.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:21.699)
It gives me a man.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:22.739)
What are you going to do?
Unknown Speaker (00:37:23.300)
Kind of look like, come on, man.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:25.780)
Even back then.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:26.420)
I was like, don't put this on your bodyguard.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:28.340)
This is on you.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:30.420)
All you had to do is sign my little.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:31.780)
Well, what are you going to do?
Unknown Speaker (00:37:33.139)
I like that.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:33.780)
Nothing I can do.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:34.500)
Hey, I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:35.460)
He's the boss.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:36.179)
Bodyguards.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:37.780)
I mean, obviously I pay his salary and everything, but he's the boss, man.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:42.420)
What are you going to do?
Unknown Speaker (00:37:43.139)
Anyway, point is Derek Fisher wasn't on Info Wars.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:48.579)
It's Nick Van Exel.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:49.699)
Oh.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:51.940)
Trying to think of other people who were on the Lakers around that time.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:56.099)
So it's not.
Unknown Speaker (00:37:56.980)
Well, Andrew Bogut is a big pizza gator, so he could have been on Info Wars.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:00.980)
That's true.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:02.260)
So no, it's not.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:03.539)
It's Bob Barr.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:05.300)
Bob Barr, former member of the House.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:07.940)
Oh, not.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:08.739)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:09.059)
Former House member from Georgia, Bob Barr joins the proceedings.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:13.139)
I bet he's a good guy.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:14.340)
Here is Alex introducing him.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:16.980)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:17.300)
This is a very important interview because he is a senior member of the National Rifle
Unknown Speaker (00:38:22.900)
Association Board.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:24.820)
And with him on the board, they've got more hardcore in the defense of the Second Amendment.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:28.260)
And we've been pleased with that direction by the NRA.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:32.340)
Libertyguard.org is the big group he's heading up fighting the drones, the TSA and the police
Unknown Speaker (00:38:37.940)
state takeover, but he wants today, Bob Barr, former Congressman, constitutional lawyer,
Unknown Speaker (00:38:43.460)
Georgetown, multiple degrees.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:45.699)
Also is in the CIA from 71 to 78.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:48.099)
Just a long bio there.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:49.380)
Bobbarr.org as well.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:51.539)
And he joins us here today.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:54.260)
He's been a long time member of the NRA board.
Unknown Speaker (00:38:56.659)
So Alex being like they've gotten more extreme under him makes literally no sense because
Unknown Speaker (00:39:02.340)
he was a member of the board almost the entire time Alex has been mad at them and calling
Unknown Speaker (00:39:06.179)
them controlled opposition, which he has been doing in 2012 while he's sitting down with
Unknown Speaker (00:39:10.739)
Bob Barr.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:11.460)
It's just meaningless.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:12.260)
It's not that it doesn't make sense while he's been a member of the board.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:14.820)
Yes, they have gotten more hard, right?
Unknown Speaker (00:39:16.579)
But it has nothing to do with anything that, you know, he's just been there.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:20.420)
So he's just there.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:21.940)
So like I mentioned, in addition to being a bit of a right wing douche, Bob Barr was
Unknown Speaker (00:39:25.940)
also a member of the US House representing Georgia.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:28.579)
Barr was in the House for eight years from 1995 to 2003.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:32.179)
And in that time, only four bills he sponsored became law.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:35.059)
One was about naming a post office.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:36.739)
Another one was about the number of 1996 Atlanta Olympics.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:40.099)
Commemorative coins should be made 40 and another was about how Alabama, Florida and
Unknown Speaker (00:39:44.500)
Georgia share surface water rights to the Chattahoochee River.
Unknown Speaker (00:39:48.340)
The fourth bill that he sponsored and made it all the way to becoming law was the 1996
Unknown Speaker (00:39:52.659)
Defense of Marriage Act, which defined marriage as being solely between one man and one woman
Unknown Speaker (00:39:57.380)
and forbade the federal government from requiring states to recognize any sex marriages nor
Unknown Speaker (00:40:02.579)
require the states to confer any of the rights of spouses to people in such relationships.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:07.460)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:07.860)
I knew he was a piece of shit, but wow, he's a piece of shit.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:10.659)
Twenty five percent of the bills he got through made sex marriages unrecognized by whatever
Unknown Speaker (00:40:17.460)
states.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:18.260)
Thanks, Bill.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:19.380)
I have to concede that a lot of Congress members on both sides of the aisle have levels that
Unknown Speaker (00:40:23.940)
are this horrible in terms of productivity, in terms of how many bills they...
Unknown Speaker (00:40:27.139)
Well, there's however many of them.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:28.659)
Yeah, so Bob shouldn't take too much of a hit for that, at least not too hard of a hit.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:32.500)
I don't think it speaks super highly that four fifths of a decade of your life is spent
Unknown Speaker (00:40:37.780)
and all you come away with it is a shared river, some coins, a named post office and
Unknown Speaker (00:40:41.940)
a bill that deeply undermines a group of people's human rights.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:44.900)
I don't think that's great, but you know.
Unknown Speaker (00:40:47.860)
I mean, the argument against that, though, is when you really get down to it based on
Unknown Speaker (00:40:56.500)
the shittiness of Democrats and how garbage they are.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:00.260)
Cortez is not going to have like, you know, she probably won't even have four bills passed
Unknown Speaker (00:41:06.980)
in the next eight years because they're so shitty.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:09.380)
No, I know.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:10.019)
But she's already done far more than any of the other.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:13.219)
I understand that.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:14.019)
That's what I was calling myself out for.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:16.260)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:16.980)
Part where I'm like, there's a lot of people who don't really on the surface get a whole
Unknown Speaker (00:41:20.739)
lot done.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:21.300)
Exactly.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:21.780)
And so I'm saying he got four bills in eight years and that I do want better productivity.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:28.260)
OK.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:28.739)
But at the same time, I recognize that it's an endemic system in Congress.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:33.219)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:33.780)
But also, if you look at some people, they get a lot more done.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:36.340)
Anyway, it's it's it's beside the point that more to the point and perhaps more relevant
Unknown Speaker (00:41:41.219)
to our conversation here.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:42.579)
In Bob Barr's time in office, he received forty eight thousand five hundred dollars
Unknown Speaker (00:41:45.780)
from Lockheed Martin, forty two thousand six hundred and three dollars from the NRA and
Unknown Speaker (00:41:50.579)
thirty nine thousand five hundred fifty dollars from Glock, representing three of his five
Unknown Speaker (00:41:55.780)
largest campaign contributors for his entire career.
Unknown Speaker (00:41:58.900)
In addition to that, his political action committee took in one hundred and one thousand
Unknown Speaker (00:42:02.820)
nine hundred and seventy three dollars from gun rights groups.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:06.579)
Probably unsurprisingly, he would also be a board member of the National Rifle Association.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:12.019)
He's not someone who is even close to being unbiased on the subject of guns.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:16.019)
And it's just another example of Alex packing his show with shills for the gun lobby to
Unknown Speaker (00:42:20.099)
come out as fast and as aggressively as possible against the very idea of running a gun
Unknown Speaker (00:42:25.380)
and the idea of regulatory reform as it relates to guns in the aftermath of the shooting.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:30.659)
He's it's just a complete trend.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:32.420)
Everybody is a gun shill.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:34.260)
Yeah, there's nobody else except that we know David Icke is on the next day, which is.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:38.579)
Well, that's fair.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:39.139)
That's the only person he's had on other than maybe Jesse Ventura that you could call not
Unknown Speaker (00:42:44.820)
a complete shill for gun interests.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:46.659)
Yeah, it's crazy.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:48.019)
I'm amazed that it's not a one hundred percent agreement among the like I get why the system
Unknown Speaker (00:42:55.139)
is.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:55.380)
Of course, you can buy politicians because you already have a shit ton of money.
Unknown Speaker (00:42:59.380)
You've already bought enough politicians for them to make it OK for you to buy politicians.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:05.059)
And you've bought enough politicians where they can appoint Supreme Court justices who
Unknown Speaker (00:43:08.900)
will make it OK for you to buy politicians.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:11.059)
But I don't understand how the American people as a whole don't have a 100 percent agreement
Unknown Speaker (00:43:15.460)
rating on everybody shouldn't be allowed to buy politicians.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:19.619)
Like if you polled America, they would be like, well, 40 percent says it's an OK idea
Unknown Speaker (00:43:24.900)
to buy politicians.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:25.860)
You're like, that doesn't make sense at all.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:28.019)
Yeah, it seems weird.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:29.699)
It seems like no matter how you phrase it or look at it, there's a better way to do
Unknown Speaker (00:43:33.300)
this.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:33.619)
Yeah, there's there's a better way.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:35.139)
No, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:35.780)
I think our current system of buying politicians is a great idea.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:38.980)
You know how that's always great.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:40.500)
It's always worked out well in history whenever you could just use a lot of money to change
Unknown Speaker (00:43:44.900)
the political system to benefit you getting more money.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:48.820)
It's perfect.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:49.539)
Works well.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:50.179)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:50.579)
Also, an interesting note is that in 2002, Bob Barr was being honored at a reception
Unknown Speaker (00:43:54.980)
being thrown by a Georgia lobbyist.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:56.980)
The reception was in Bob Barr's honor.
Unknown Speaker (00:43:59.619)
That lobbyist, Bruce Widener, planned to give Barr an antique 1908 Colt 38 caliber pistol
Unknown Speaker (00:44:06.019)
in attempting to hand the gun to Barr.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:07.780)
He almost killed him.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:09.139)
Widener says that he removed the magazine from the gun but didn't clear the chamber
Unknown Speaker (00:44:12.980)
and explained the problem as, quote, We were handling it safely, except that it was loaded.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:18.179)
That certainly inspires confidence.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:20.420)
Especially considering that, according to Bruce's LinkedIn page, he was the executive
Unknown Speaker (00:44:24.420)
director of the Conditioned Air Association of Georgia at the time.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:27.539)
So the gift of a loaded gun is extra weird.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:30.340)
Oh, boy.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:31.219)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:31.940)
Oh, boy.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:32.500)
They just fucking almost shot him at a reception because...
Unknown Speaker (00:44:35.940)
I'm disappointed.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:37.699)
Disappointed.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:38.820)
Look, you're looking at the wrong issue.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:40.260)
I know.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:40.739)
I get it.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:41.460)
I get it.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:42.179)
I am susceptible to schadenfreude.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:44.579)
It's true.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:45.219)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:45.619)
It's true.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:46.179)
You're looking at the wrong issue.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:47.300)
It's not that the bullet missed him, it's that it also could have hit anybody else.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:51.699)
I know.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:52.340)
It's insane.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:53.460)
No, I get it.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:54.579)
And for people who...
Unknown Speaker (00:44:57.059)
I know.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:57.780)
I know.
Unknown Speaker (00:44:58.900)
Bob Barr didn't initiate the proceedings.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:01.940)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:02.500)
You know, it's not so embarrassing that he was the one receiving the gun.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:06.739)
But I would figure if you're giving an antique gun to a guy who's a board member of the NRA
Unknown Speaker (00:45:11.539)
and is a big gun guy, you should do your due diligence.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:14.739)
Make sure there's not a bullet in there.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:17.699)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:18.099)
It could be a real embarrassing thing that someone might talk about on a podcast 17 years
Unknown Speaker (00:45:21.860)
later.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:23.539)
It might undermine a lot of these arguments.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:25.300)
But that's one of those things where when I talk about, that's too many guns.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:32.260)
Whenever it's like, oh, he had 15 guns or whatever it is.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:35.699)
It is not that you can't have all those guns.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:39.539)
It's that every gun multiplies the ability for you to fuck up minorly in a way that is
Unknown Speaker (00:45:46.900)
huge, you know?
Unknown Speaker (00:45:47.460)
Yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:47.860)
Minor mistakes are huge.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:49.300)
Minor mistakes with a gun are huge.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:51.219)
And each gun just increases the percentage of chance that something is going to fuck
Unknown Speaker (00:45:57.300)
up.
Unknown Speaker (00:45:58.019)
The more guns you handle, the more likely...
Unknown Speaker (00:46:00.739)
It just has a statistical data point.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:06.260)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:06.739)
And even in this case, I believe that people should be able to have guns that treat them
Unknown Speaker (00:46:10.980)
responsibly and all that stuff.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:12.980)
And antique guns are super cool.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:14.659)
But what we're talking about here is even the possibility that does exist.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:18.659)
People who handle guns responsibly, there's still a danger involved in that.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:22.900)
And fuck ups are very, very, very costly.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:26.980)
I am just unable to hear Bob Barr without feeling like you're leaving off the cur.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:32.659)
I always hear Bob Barr and I'm like, when are you going to finish the word and say,
Unknown Speaker (00:46:36.579)
Bob Barker?
Unknown Speaker (00:46:37.940)
When are you going to say Bob Barker?
Unknown Speaker (00:46:39.619)
His name is Bob Barker!
Unknown Speaker (00:46:41.059)
Also, Bob Barr was the guy who led the charge in the House to get Bill Clinton impeached
Unknown Speaker (00:46:46.260)
and was the first person in Congress to call on Bill Clinton to resign.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:50.019)
So he's cool.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:50.900)
He's an all right dude.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:51.699)
He's all right.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:52.500)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:52.820)
So all of his arguments are mostly about the sort of the same things as Alex.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:57.300)
Like, they can't take our guns.
Unknown Speaker (00:46:58.420)
They won't.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:00.179)
Exactly what you'd expect.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:01.300)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:01.699)
He is treating Sandy Hook like it's a real thing, which is, I guess...
Unknown Speaker (00:47:06.179)
No, I'm not even going to give him a win column there.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:08.500)
Well, I mean, he's not saying it's fake.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:10.099)
So it's important in as much as Alex's guests are not influencing him except for the, like,
Unknown Speaker (00:47:16.980)
defend guns aspect of it.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:18.900)
The rest of the stuff is not coming from any clear source on the show.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:24.099)
There's nobody who's coming in and poisoning his mind as it were.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:27.539)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:27.699)
Bunch of weirdo callers.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:29.460)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:29.940)
Yeah, but that's to be expected.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:31.380)
If you're doing a show like Alex does and you're 20 years into it or whatever...
Unknown Speaker (00:47:34.900)
You're going to get some weirdo callers.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:36.179)
But you should also have a position of, I don't believe anything these weirdos say.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:39.300)
Yeah, that's a good point.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:40.179)
You should know by now.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:41.699)
You should know.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:42.500)
These people are nuts.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:43.619)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:43.940)
The D.O.T. is on the streets, Stan.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:46.659)
So anyway, in this clip, Alex tells Bob Barr about what the real issue is with Sandy Hook.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:54.099)
Looking at this, sir, we know what the big ingredient is.
Unknown Speaker (00:47:59.380)
The Pentagon developed first-person shooter games to create instinctive
Unknown Speaker (00:48:03.139)
killing because in Vietnam and before they found troops wouldn't kill people up close
Unknown Speaker (00:48:07.699)
and they would become dead.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:08.820)
It was meant to hone, not a killer instinct, but an instinctive killing.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:13.059)
Okay, so in Vietnam and before, soldiers wouldn't kill people.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:18.420)
That's why they invented video games.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:20.179)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:20.980)
Yep.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:22.900)
I beg to differ.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:24.179)
Can I just say that up top?
Unknown Speaker (00:48:25.699)
Yes.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:26.099)
Beg to differ.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:26.980)
I will actually defend him on this one.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:28.900)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:29.380)
Strangely enough, this is something that I did read up on.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:32.659)
They've done a lot of studies on ammo and war and all that stuff.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:37.300)
And it is very, very unlikely for a soldier to actually try and kill somebody like so
Unknown Speaker (00:48:44.659)
many of the bullets that they've found have been people not necessarily not like intentionally
Unknown Speaker (00:48:50.340)
trying to miss, but at the same time, nobody wants to kill anybody.
Unknown Speaker (00:48:54.579)
So there is a very high, like, like if we're talking, like if we're talking about
Unknown Speaker (00:48:59.300)
We're talking Shaq's free throw percentage level of trying to kill people.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:04.340)
Do you know what I'm saying?
Unknown Speaker (00:49:05.139)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:05.780)
But if you're talking about this, you're not talking about it in terms of like,
Unknown Speaker (00:49:09.940)
that was true until Vietnam.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:11.699)
Oh, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:11.940)
And now everyone's trying to kill everybody.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:13.619)
No, no, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:14.420)
So even that doesn't track with what Alex is saying.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:16.820)
Even now, people are still on the, on the whole, people are still on the side of maybe
Unknown Speaker (00:49:21.539)
we shouldn't kill people.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:22.579)
There weren't any video games around in World War One.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:25.059)
Anyway, so Alex gets to this next, he has a, he has a news story that he wants to tell
Unknown Speaker (00:49:30.820)
Bob about.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:31.619)
And it's, it's pretty scary, but it's also not true.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:36.420)
What about this report?
Unknown Speaker (00:49:37.380)
It's an info wars.com.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:38.980)
It links to the Chinese people's daily, the official government, communist Chinese mouth.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:45.780)
I mean, it's the mouth communist Chinese government calls for Americans to be disarmed.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:50.340)
This just broke at info wars.com with the links to the people's daily.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:54.659)
And they say they challenge Obama to ratify the new UN treaty.
Unknown Speaker (00:49:59.699)
And is it part of what we're seeing, the drumbeat even before this Chad massacre, the move towards
Unknown Speaker (00:50:05.460)
getting the Senate to ratify the United Nations small arms treaty, sir?
Unknown Speaker (00:50:10.820)
Actually, Alex, this is one reason I like to come onto your show because you bring up
Unknown Speaker (00:50:14.420)
so many good points that a lot of people don't really think of.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:17.539)
Ooh, that's not a great response to that.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:19.539)
I think you can probably guess just from listening to Alex that he might be sensationalizing
Unknown Speaker (00:50:24.260)
this story, just a tad, maybe just a little, a tad, but not in front of Bob Barr, not a
Unknown Speaker (00:50:30.900)
respectable former house member.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:33.219)
The Chinese state media operation Jinhua did post an op-ed titled quote, innocent blood
Unknown Speaker (00:50:40.019)
demands, no delay for us gun control, but it stops just short of saying something like,
Unknown Speaker (00:50:44.980)
hey, Obama, go get everybody's guns, like Alex is suggesting.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:49.539)
You can find the article online, and if you do, you'll see what it really is is China
Unknown Speaker (00:50:53.619)
shaking the damn heads at us.
Unknown Speaker (00:50:55.460)
It's mostly about how as awful and heartbreaking as these mass shootings are in America, the
Unknown Speaker (00:51:00.099)
reason nothing is ever done about it is electoral politics.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:03.380)
The author specifically points out that Columbine happened in an election here, which is probably
Unknown Speaker (00:51:07.380)
a big reason why no one was quote, willing to step up gun control due to possible political
Unknown Speaker (00:51:12.179)
ramifications.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:12.980)
They point out that because Obama doesn't have to face another election, he's in a rare
Unknown Speaker (00:51:16.420)
position where that isn't a concern for him.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:18.980)
It's really just a statement of fact.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:21.139)
Yeah, no, that's pretty good analysis.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:23.460)
The op-ed further points out that one of the big reasons that in election years, even the
Unknown Speaker (00:51:28.260)
Democrats who ostensibly are for gun law reform lack the political will to get anything done
Unknown Speaker (00:51:33.460)
is the massive influence and funding provided to their opponents by the NRA, specifically
Unknown Speaker (00:51:37.940)
pointing out the 2000 election when the NRA gave $3.2 million to candidates' political
Unknown Speaker (00:51:43.940)
action committees, 98% of which went to Republicans.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:47.940)
Interestingly, in that election, the largest single recipient of their money was California's
Unknown Speaker (00:51:51.699)
Democratic representative, Joe Baca.
Unknown Speaker (00:51:53.940)
It seemed real strange when you see that until you realize that he was part of the Blue Dog
Unknown Speaker (00:51:58.179)
Democrat caucus, and after he lost his seat in 2012, he tried to stage a comeback by running
Unknown Speaker (00:52:02.820)
as a Republican in 2015.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:04.659)
Odd.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:05.059)
And then he switched back to being a Democrat to run in 2018.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:08.099)
How did he do?
Unknown Speaker (00:52:08.739)
He didn't win.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:09.539)
He's what he was referred to by colleagues as a candidate of convenience.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:13.619)
Yeah, otherwise known as a fucking asshole.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:17.699)
Uh-huh.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:18.340)
So he was part of that 2% of money from the NRA and went to Democrats.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:22.980)
More to the point, though, this piece, this Chinese op-ed, is really more about shaming
Unknown Speaker (00:52:27.139)
than it is about demand that we actually do anything.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:30.019)
You can tell that from lines like, quote, the massacre has triggered a new debate on
Unknown Speaker (00:52:33.780)
gun control in the United States.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:35.619)
However, this time, the public feels somewhat tired and helpless.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:38.820)
And, quote, every time a tragedy occurs, there are renewed appeals for gun regulation.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:43.380)
However, the calls disappointingly always fail.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:45.940)
God damn it.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:47.059)
There's a resignation in the text that really speaks to how profoundly felt the tragedy
Unknown Speaker (00:52:51.139)
of Sandy Hook was to people who are able to feel things, even in other countries.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:55.059)
All around the world.
Unknown Speaker (00:52:56.500)
The final line is something close to a call to action, but it's kind of meek when taken
Unknown Speaker (00:53:00.579)
in the full context of the rest of the article.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:02.900)
Quote, actions speak louder than words.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:05.539)
If Obama wants to take practical measures to control guns, he has to make a preparation
Unknown Speaker (00:53:09.699)
for a protracted war and considerable political cost.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:13.219)
This is to say that lip service is meaningful or is meaningless.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:16.900)
And ultimately, if Obama wants to make a real difference, the gun fetishists in this country
Unknown Speaker (00:53:21.219)
aren't going to let him do anything easily.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:23.139)
All in all, the article is insanely depressing to read.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:26.420)
Yeah, it is basically what we all felt.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:29.059)
It really is what we all felt of like the next day.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:33.380)
Well, apparently not all of us.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:34.820)
Well, yeah, that's fair.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:36.099)
I mean, just anybody with empathy or emotions is just like, really, we're not doing anything
Unknown Speaker (00:53:42.500)
even after this, then it's never going to be done.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:45.219)
I don't know what to do other than to inoculate myself from care, you know, to pretend that,
Unknown Speaker (00:53:51.780)
well, I guess this is just business as usual, so I don't have to feel anymore.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:56.099)
It's brutal.
Unknown Speaker (00:53:57.139)
So the New York Times wrote a piece about this article in this Chinese publication,
Unknown Speaker (00:54:01.219)
and it points out how in China, there's also an attack on a school in the Hainan province
Unknown Speaker (00:54:06.019)
around the same time as the one in Newtown.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:08.420)
There was a man there who stabbed 22 children, which Alex could use to make the argument
Unknown Speaker (00:54:12.900)
that these attacks happen no matter what weapons people have, to which I would reply that none
Unknown Speaker (00:54:17.139)
of the children in China died.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:18.659)
So there's a substantial difference, because even if someone comes in with a knife, he
Unknown Speaker (00:54:23.380)
stabbed 22 kids.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:24.420)
Which is a fucking terrifying, awful thing, but they're all still alive.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:28.019)
Jesus.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:28.659)
So quite different, quite different in outcome.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:30.579)
I would say it's at the very least a little different.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:33.539)
Oh, also, Alex is further lying by saying that he just broke the story.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:37.619)
Paul Joseph Watson posted an article about the op-ed on Infowars.com on December 20th,
Unknown Speaker (00:54:42.820)
the day of this episode.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:44.659)
Breitbart had covered it in an article they posted on December 18th.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:48.420)
So Alex is clearly piggybacking their propaganda angle and pretending he's the first person
Unknown Speaker (00:54:53.059)
on the scene.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:54.500)
In PJW's article, there's even a paragraph citing the Breitbart story and linking to
Unknown Speaker (00:54:58.500)
it.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:58.739)
Of course.
Unknown Speaker (00:54:59.139)
So they didn't break shit.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:00.099)
They didn't break it.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:00.900)
They just covered the Breitbart article on Infowars.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:03.219)
They broke it on Infowars.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:04.420)
Big news.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:05.860)
Interestingly, there's one source that does give Alex credit for breaking this story that
Unknown Speaker (00:55:09.699)
I can find.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:10.980)
Quote, the Communist Party of China demands that the U.S. should disarm.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:15.619)
According to Chinese officials, the recent school massacre gave all to, uh, this is poor
Unknown Speaker (00:55:21.139)
grammar, gave all to understand that one should not wait any longer.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:25.460)
The country's leaders believe that the brutality of the Connecticut shooter will ensure the
Unknown Speaker (00:55:29.780)
widest public support for arms reduction.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:31.940)
Infowars.com reports.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:34.500)
That's from a December 21st article in Pravda.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:37.300)
I'm not really sure what that means or even if it means anything, but it seemed weird.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:40.900)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:42.019)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:42.820)
But that's the only place.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:43.539)
I got nothing on that one.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:44.500)
That's the only place I can find that cites Infowars as a source on this story.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:48.179)
And I was like, what the fuck?
Unknown Speaker (00:55:49.460)
That's the only place you can find that cites Infowars on any story.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:52.340)
I'm not sure that's entirely true.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:53.860)
But at this point, Alex has got this story.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:56.820)
He lets Bob go and get out of here, Bob.
Unknown Speaker (00:55:59.699)
He just goes spay and neuter your own fucking pants.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:02.579)
It's a different guy.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:03.300)
It's a different guy.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:04.019)
Different guy.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:04.579)
Are you sure?
Unknown Speaker (00:56:05.139)
I'm positive.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:05.780)
OK, so.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:06.579)
But Alex has introduced this China wants to disarm us story and that really starts to
Unknown Speaker (00:56:12.340)
feel good.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:12.900)
Get them chai comms in there.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:14.420)
And he's now glad that he took calls earlier in the show so he could just scream about
Unknown Speaker (00:56:18.500)
the Chinese for the rest of the show.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:20.179)
Oh, boy.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:20.820)
He just rants about how awful they are and how they kill everybody and all that sort
Unknown Speaker (00:56:25.380)
of the Chinese and the most brutal regime ever.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:28.739)
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:30.179)
He goes on a good like 10 minute jag about that.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:32.739)
They can be mind controlled.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:34.260)
And that's later on.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:37.300)
Yeah, that's later on.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:38.179)
But it's still bubbling under the surface.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:40.900)
So he does all that ranting and then he gets to this.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:45.539)
And he talks about the the Chinese newscasters covering like Tiananmen Square.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:53.380)
And I think it sounds like him in the present.
Unknown Speaker (00:56:57.219)
I just type in Tiananmen Square news, Chinese news coverage of Tiananmen Square.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:02.099)
And I mean, it is just tanks running over, bodies splattered everywhere, lining people
Unknown Speaker (00:57:07.300)
up, shooting them and then just cutting back to newscasters like like they're reporting
Unknown Speaker (00:57:11.219)
on their football team winning.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:12.739)
I tell you, the Washington Redskins defeated their enemy today and just annihilated me.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:17.460)
And the satisfaction on the faces of the state run me, I was just like, we are defeating
Unknown Speaker (00:57:21.780)
the enemy right now, devastatingly smashing and crushing them.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:25.300)
Oh, my God.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:25.940)
But it's in Chinese.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:28.739)
And it's just incredible.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:31.219)
Incredible.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:32.420)
Oh, man, I like that pause there.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:35.380)
But it's in Chinese.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:37.219)
He doesn't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:37.860)
He doesn't know Chinese.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:38.659)
So he's just assuming that's what they're saying or whatever.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:41.699)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:42.179)
I don't know what it's Chinese.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:44.019)
I don't know if he's ever got nobody even knows how to read that language.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:46.820)
It's a mystery.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:49.219)
But when he's describing these newscasters, that sounds very similar to him talking about
Unknown Speaker (00:57:53.780)
the globalists.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:54.820)
Yeah, we're crushing them.
Unknown Speaker (00:57:57.460)
Our team, the Patriots, our resurgence.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:00.099)
You know, I was thinking while he was while he was talking about that, I was thinking
Unknown Speaker (00:58:04.500)
about how the The New Yorker story that came out about how Fox News is the mouthpiece,
Unknown Speaker (00:58:09.059)
the propaganda arm of the Trump story.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:11.699)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:12.340)
I'm like I imagine myself being Alex reading that story and being like, this is the problem.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:19.300)
I was supposed to be the state media.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:22.179)
That's my whole issue.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:24.420)
Fox News took my gig.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:26.420)
It took my game and went pro with it.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:28.099)
Exactly.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:28.900)
He must have been so pissed when he read that.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:31.300)
But I think he had to.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:32.420)
I mean, he already knew he would have to be a fool not to see that coming, even in the
Unknown Speaker (00:58:36.579)
early days.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:37.139)
Oh, of course, of course.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:39.619)
I mean, I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:41.300)
I do think that that's what he wants to be seen as.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:44.980)
But he wouldn't want to be Fox News also.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:47.219)
No, no, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:47.940)
He wants to be the propaganda arm of the Trump administration.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:50.420)
But he also doesn't want to be beholden to FCC laws.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:53.219)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:53.460)
And stuff like that.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:54.420)
There's stricter rules of television.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:55.940)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:58:56.179)
But that's why I'm saying that even then he must be so angry to realize the extent of
Unknown Speaker (00:59:03.300)
it.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:03.699)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:04.099)
Because that's that's like one of his big selling points for being the state run media
Unknown Speaker (00:59:10.179)
is like, see, nobody nobody can regulate my shit.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:14.179)
I don't give it FCC.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:15.940)
I don't care.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:16.820)
I'm Alex.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:17.619)
Stupid dumb fuck Jones.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:19.300)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:19.780)
You know, you guys could have picked me and they would never even.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:23.059)
Oh, they would write a New Yorker story.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:25.139)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:25.380)
Like I give a shit, you know, although on the other hand, Fox News doesn't give a shit
Unknown Speaker (00:59:29.380)
either.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:29.699)
So there is that you got to give them that.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:31.300)
There's more people who are willing to go on the record around Fox News than there are
Unknown Speaker (00:59:34.900)
at Infowars.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:35.699)
Well, yeah, you got to be able to get written for fair.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:40.099)
You got to give it up to the Somali pirates.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:41.699)
That's all I'm saying.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:42.579)
That would be in that story for sure.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:44.340)
So in this next clip, Alex insists that he's not trying to scare his audience.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:48.739)
And then he proceeds to say something incredibly scary.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:52.659)
I've studied these people and you've heard Ron Paul.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:55.380)
You've heard countless others on here who've studied them.
Unknown Speaker (00:59:58.340)
We have sick psychopathic authoritarians.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:01.539)
That's a Ron Paul quote in control.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:03.539)
And they plan to put us in FEMA camps.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:04.980)
They built them.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:06.019)
It's public.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:06.739)
It's all real.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:07.699)
Nope.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:07.940)
Now, people say, well, you're scaring us, Alex.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:11.619)
No, no, no.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:12.340)
I want to scare you with the facts into exposing these people.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:19.300)
They're not going to be able to do this if we expose them.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:22.500)
But let me explain something to you.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:24.260)
If they nuke a city, which is in their plans, it's in their cards.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:29.219)
If they nuke a city and say patriots did it, you know the hammer just dropped and they're
Unknown Speaker (01:00:34.420)
going to try to come arrest me.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:35.619)
You name it.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:36.099)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:36.420)
I know these murders.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:39.219)
You think they care about 20 kids at Sandy Hook?
Unknown Speaker (01:00:41.219)
Think again.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:42.099)
I mean, these are sick freaks who want an authoritarian system here.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:46.500)
We are the greatest prize in the world.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:49.219)
The patriots, the Americans who won't submit are the greatest prize.
Unknown Speaker (01:00:53.460)
And they're willing to nuke a city in order to make Alex look bad so he can be arrested.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:00.179)
I don't.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:00.739)
That seems like a bad plan.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:02.179)
I don't see how that's not trying to scare people.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:04.579)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:05.619)
He's just saying that the enemy is willing to kill millions upon millions of people,
Unknown Speaker (01:01:12.420)
scorch the earth around them, possibly cause lasting radioactive damage to the entire world
Unknown Speaker (01:01:20.500)
in order to arrest Alex.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:22.820)
To get me.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:23.699)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:24.260)
That's not that scary.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:25.300)
There's a little narcissism buried in there.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:27.380)
There's a little bit of, I mean, it's also minimizing anybody who expresses feelings
Unknown Speaker (01:01:32.420)
of loss and sadness over Sandy Hook.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:35.619)
Certainly he's building that into what he's saying.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:40.260)
It's definitely there of like, oh, why would you care about these 20 people?
Unknown Speaker (01:01:45.219)
We're trying to save millions.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:47.699)
Because they're going to nuke a city.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:48.739)
It's in their cards.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:49.619)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:49.940)
It's in the plans.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:50.739)
It's in their cards.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:51.460)
It's in the plans.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:52.179)
It's the upside down king pointing the sword at his head.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:55.300)
Something or other.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:56.099)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:01:56.579)
So in this last clip from December 20th, Alex says something that is not good.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:03.539)
And it has to be understood in the context of all the other things he's been saying up
Unknown Speaker (01:02:07.780)
till this point.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:08.739)
Like in recent days, he's talking about how he'd seen this video of Robbie Parker, the
Unknown Speaker (01:02:13.139)
grieving father, and he thinks it's suspicious and they might be actors.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:16.739)
He's acting like an actor up there.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:18.659)
This needs to be investigated.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:20.099)
Sandy Hook smells to high heaven.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:22.099)
People need to investigate this.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:23.860)
The globalist plan to nuke a city to take out our Patriots, the greatest prize in the
Unknown Speaker (01:02:30.980)
known world and that sort of thing.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:33.380)
So when he ends the show like this, it doesn't make me feel good.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:37.699)
Man, if you love your families, folks, you better get really active.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:41.219)
I mean, in everybody's face, banner hangs, calling in to talk radio, doing your own YouTubes,
Unknown Speaker (01:02:46.900)
access television.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:49.059)
It isn't enough to get a bunch of guns and hide out in the forest waiting for them to
Unknown Speaker (01:02:52.179)
come.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:52.420)
You got to get in their face now.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:56.019)
You've got to take America back now.
Unknown Speaker (01:02:58.420)
And you playing patty cake with the Democrats and Republicans isn't going to do it.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:03.539)
You understand everybody that says, oh, the government's just dumb.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:06.099)
They just don't know.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:07.139)
It's a foreign occupation by foreign banks with China.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:11.300)
Okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:11.860)
Oh boy.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:12.739)
So it's really weird to hear that level of scaremongering over what sounds like the track
Unknown Speaker (01:03:22.019)
from a Jane Fonda workout video.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:24.019)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:24.420)
Do you know, do you know what I mean?
Unknown Speaker (01:03:26.019)
I do.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:26.579)
I do know what you mean.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:28.179)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:28.500)
It's strange.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:29.460)
It's not.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:30.340)
It doesn't.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:30.820)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:31.059)
We're going to work those glutes.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:32.579)
Everybody's coming to kill you.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:34.019)
All right.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:34.900)
It's disconcerting.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:36.260)
Um, certainly the idea of like, if you love your family, you better get really active.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:40.579)
You got to get on local access.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:42.820)
You got to get in people's faces.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:44.179)
You got to, you got to confront everybody.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:45.940)
YouTubes.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:47.780)
I mean, that's one, that's one way.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:49.380)
That's probably just more of an expression of like, if you guys who are my acolytes do
Unknown Speaker (01:03:54.019)
these things, it's only going to feed people to me.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:56.500)
Exactly.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:57.059)
Because you'll be saying what I say, but worse.
Unknown Speaker (01:03:59.219)
And people like maybe see your ideas.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:01.940)
You'll obviously reference someone you will reference.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:04.420)
You will reference Alex Jones a million times.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:06.340)
It'll be free advertising.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:07.460)
It'll be terrible advertising, but it'll be free.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:09.219)
Not great.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:09.699)
And then the other side of it, there will be a large portion of his audience who hear
Unknown Speaker (01:04:14.019)
what he's saying in the context of all of the other stuff he's been saying.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:17.380)
You need to get aggressive.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:19.059)
If you love your family, you got to get really active.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:21.059)
This is an occupying government, all this stuff.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:23.780)
And they'll take action.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:24.820)
They'll be interested in investigating Sandy Hook, as he has already said people need to
Unknown Speaker (01:04:30.980)
do.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:32.019)
So the getting really active part there is it's disconcerting.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:36.659)
Frustrating.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:37.699)
Yeah, it's troubling.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:39.139)
So I have an out of context drop from the 20th that I didn't play earlier.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:43.619)
And here you go.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:45.380)
We're in a pickle, I have to tell you.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:47.219)
Yeah, you are.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:48.820)
So we get to the 21st.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:51.460)
You're reigniting the great pickle cucumber debate of 2019.
Unknown Speaker (01:04:56.340)
Anytime pickles come up in Alex's world, we got to reference it.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:00.500)
So we get to the 21st, the end of the world day.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:03.539)
He has David Icke on, and it's mostly just talking about how there are evil forces in
Unknown Speaker (01:05:10.980)
the world, but of course the world's not going to end today.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:13.860)
That is most of the show.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:14.900)
But they get into a little conversation about Sandy Hook, and now we see these ideas that
Unknown Speaker (01:05:22.019)
Alex has already introduced, be it the Batman idea or anything like that.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:26.579)
Jane Fonda workout tapes.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:27.940)
That doesn't come into play specifically, but it's probably in the background somewhere.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:31.300)
I assume so.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:32.340)
So Alex and David Icke have this conversation that I think is awful.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:37.780)
After we get into my questions, what are some of the things that are front and center with
Unknown Speaker (01:05:40.900)
you today?
Unknown Speaker (01:05:41.380)
Well, I just think we're heading, Alex, to a point in the new year in 2013, when so many
Unknown Speaker (01:05:48.900)
things are going to come together.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:51.619)
We have a president now in a second term.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:54.340)
He has no other election to win.
Unknown Speaker (01:05:56.739)
We have this fiscal cliff, as they're talking about, and this obvious agenda to push on
Unknown Speaker (01:06:07.059)
down the road of the Hunger Games.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:09.139)
If people saw that movie, there was a few people absolutely staggeringly rich in a high
Unknown Speaker (01:06:18.579)
tech, top of the range luxury capital, and the rest of the people who were feeding that
Unknown Speaker (01:06:25.940)
wealth were actually in abject poverty.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:28.659)
So we support Occupy Wall Street.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:30.900)
Beyond Orwellian levels of control.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:33.059)
Occupy Wall Street.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:34.179)
You know, it was interesting to me because, you know, I follow symbolism a lot and so-called
Unknown Speaker (01:06:41.699)
coincidence that Suzanne Collins, who wrote the Hunger Games should be living in that
Unknown Speaker (01:06:48.500)
area of Sandy Hook.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:49.940)
Same with the connections from that into the Dark Knight Rising movie.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:54.260)
And by the way, it's not just that they renamed it in the new Dark Knight to Sandy Hook.
Unknown Speaker (01:06:58.900)
They mailed out to the media attack papers.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:02.420)
For those that don't know, we'll talk about this when we come back.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:04.659)
Attack papers, orders from Bain of strike points.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:07.539)
And in the last one, that area named Sandy Hook was named Hinckley, the shooter of Reagan.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:13.219)
Well, you see, if we get really deeper into this, really deep into this, Alex, it's all
Unknown Speaker (01:07:19.059)
about the manipulation of the human subconscious mind, which then becomes the conscious mind's
Unknown Speaker (01:07:25.300)
perception of reality.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:26.900)
I don't care about that Batman nonsense.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:28.980)
Do people not know how fucking stupid that is?
Unknown Speaker (01:07:35.460)
Clearly not.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:36.659)
How does anybody listen to David Icke and not go, that is the dumbest fucking guy.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:42.099)
I get that he has a British accent and that can confuse a lot of people.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:46.659)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:46.900)
But he even smacks his lips a lot and he does that thing where he breathes in through his
Unknown Speaker (01:07:50.739)
nose and it's wrong and it's uncomfortable.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:53.300)
And then he says just dumb fuck shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:55.699)
That's pretty dumb.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:56.340)
That is stupid.
Unknown Speaker (01:07:57.619)
Yeah, you know what, though?
Unknown Speaker (01:07:59.139)
It is true that Suzanne Collins, the author of the Hunger Games series, did live in Sandy
Unknown Speaker (01:08:03.380)
Hook Village.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:03.699)
Oh, never mind.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:04.659)
That proves that reptilians run the world then.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:06.579)
But I would respond to that by saying so what?
Unknown Speaker (01:08:08.900)
Also, Caitlyn Jenner formerly lived there, too.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:11.139)
Is that meaningful?
Unknown Speaker (01:08:12.500)
The actor Anthony Edwards used to live there.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:14.739)
So what?
Unknown Speaker (01:08:15.619)
Charles Jackson, the author of The Lost Weekend, lived there.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:18.260)
Does this add to the conspiracy at all?
Unknown Speaker (01:08:20.500)
Jenna Von Oy, who played Six on Blossom, went to high school in Sandy Hook.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:24.899)
Were Six's hats part of the globalist plot?
Unknown Speaker (01:08:27.619)
Actually, that is.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:28.579)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:29.779)
Someone needs to investigate.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:31.220)
I would believe that one.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:32.420)
Look into the hats.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:33.140)
Please, nobody bother anybody, anybody from the show Blossom.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:37.140)
And these are just some of the famous people who are from Sandy Hook Village.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:40.340)
When you consider the entire town of Newtown, that list expands quite a bit and now includes
Unknown Speaker (01:08:46.260)
Charles Goodyear, the guy who invented vulcanized rubber for tires.
Unknown Speaker (01:08:49.859)
Joanna Cole, the author of The Magic School Bus, Joey Stiles, the former ECW announcer
Unknown Speaker (01:08:55.460)
and Elia Kazan, the two time Oscar winning, three time Tony Award winning and four time
Unknown Speaker (01:09:01.220)
Golden Globe winning director of such hits as A Streetcar Named Desire and On the Waterfront,
Unknown Speaker (01:09:05.539)
who is considered by many to be one of the best directors in film history,
Unknown Speaker (01:09:08.899)
who also founded the Actors Studio, which created Method acting.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:12.340)
Yeah, but she never got an Emmy, so she didn't even egot.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:15.539)
It doesn't even care.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:16.340)
Oh, I'm sorry.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:17.779)
I completely forgot.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:18.979)
And also none of this means anything.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:21.539)
He didn't egot, Dan.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:23.140)
Doesn't matter.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:23.779)
There are people who are from places.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:28.100)
So-called coincidences.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:29.779)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:30.659)
Fuck off.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:31.699)
You're so stupid.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:33.060)
You need to do better to like work on a coincidence than just say it's not one.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:37.619)
So-called.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:38.739)
Well, that's the yeah, you can't.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:40.340)
That's a shortcut and it's unfair.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:41.939)
That's an unfair thing to do.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:44.739)
And I resent it.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:45.939)
I investigate so-called coincidences by first not investigating them and second
Unknown Speaker (01:09:52.579)
saying that they are not coincidences, thus proving my dumb argument.
Unknown Speaker (01:09:56.659)
And the plot of The Hunger Games really has nothing to do with the shooting that happened.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:01.460)
No.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:01.699)
So number one there.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:02.659)
And everything to do with watching Battle Royale when she was high in 1995.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:06.979)
And nothing about it really has to do with the direction our society's gone.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:10.260)
If you want to talk about like, yes, there is great economic difference between the classes.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:18.579)
Yes, that is true.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:20.100)
The social stratification aspect of the movie is true.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:24.739)
But the movie is about a kill contest.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:28.659)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:29.060)
That we still haven't gotten to.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:30.500)
Nor is there any indication that that is the direction.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:32.340)
Professional football's getting closer.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:35.220)
Not nearly the same.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:36.180)
Not quite.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:36.739)
They don't get weapons.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:37.619)
That's true.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:38.500)
Oh, man, they should get weapons.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:40.180)
So here's the last clip from the 21st where they are talking some more about Sandy Hook.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:45.539)
You can look at Sandy Hook.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:48.420)
But we're missing the point if we look at it only on one level.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:52.340)
You're dumb.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:52.579)
On one level, yes.
Unknown Speaker (01:10:53.859)
It's about an excuse to take guns away because of the same reason that they
Unknown Speaker (01:10:59.859)
stopped guns and ammunition being owned by Jewish people before they started riling up in Germany.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:04.420)
Whoa!
Unknown Speaker (01:11:04.899)
And on another level, it's going to be used to create copycats.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:08.100)
More people shooting schools because that's the feedback loop
Unknown Speaker (01:11:11.460)
conditioning people to go shoot up schools.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:14.420)
This will undoubtedly cause more school shootings.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:16.979)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:17.619)
That's another one.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:18.659)
Another one is to create what?
Unknown Speaker (01:11:22.260)
Emotional trauma collectively in the population.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:26.020)
Not just in America over Sandy Hook, although obviously much greater there.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:30.260)
Stay there.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:30.819)
Stay there.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:31.300)
We're talking about psychic vampires with David Ikes.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:34.340)
Yeah, you are.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:34.979)
That is what you're doing.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:36.020)
Take a look in the mirror.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:36.979)
That's what you're doing.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:38.020)
Alex, you're talking about psychic vampires with David Ike.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:45.140)
Ridiculous.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:45.859)
And even David Ike is coming out on the It Was False Flag staged.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:51.140)
They're doing it to create emotional trauma on a worldwide basis.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:55.220)
Oh, you bet.
Unknown Speaker (01:11:56.020)
Like he's all in on the...
Unknown Speaker (01:11:58.340)
David Ike is a little bit harder in his position than Alex is at this point.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:01.460)
Yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:02.420)
But Alex is, you know, it's not good.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:05.779)
It's not good to have these ideas presented on your show unchallenged if they're not ideas
Unknown Speaker (01:12:10.979)
that you don't want your audience internalizing.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:14.659)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:14.979)
It's just a shitty way to do business.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:18.180)
So look, I still don't think we've reached the point where he's fully committed to his
Unknown Speaker (01:12:24.500)
this was fake argument or anything.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:27.140)
But we're past the end of the world and we've seen the continuation of the wall-to-wall
Unknown Speaker (01:12:33.380)
gun-chill guests and the breaking of that pattern with one of the craziest people who
Unknown Speaker (01:12:38.180)
exists in the world, David Ike, who is saying that it's psychic vampires trying to create
Unknown Speaker (01:12:42.420)
this trauma and all this stuff, which it doesn't bode well for what comes next.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:48.420)
Nah, nah, nah.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:48.899)
Does not make me feel super confident that Alex is going to find his bearings at all.
Unknown Speaker (01:12:54.100)
And the other thing too is in that clip, that last one there, Alex is saying that he's concerned
Unknown Speaker (01:12:59.300)
that this is going to create copycat school shooters and stuff like that, which is the
Unknown Speaker (01:13:03.859)
safest bet in the world when you do nothing.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:06.340)
When you do nothing in terms of regulating gun laws and things like that, you can be
Unknown Speaker (01:13:13.380)
pretty confident there's going to be more school shootings.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:16.739)
And then you can just say, I called this, these are all because of the last one.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:22.180)
This is all just copycatting off the last one.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:24.500)
And I can be pretty sure that you have some culpability in those fucking copycat shooters.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:32.260)
I'm not willing to go that far, but he certainly is not, certainly not innocent, but I'm not
Unknown Speaker (01:13:38.420)
sure of what he is guilty of.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:40.260)
He's guilty of something.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:41.300)
Man, David Ike just sounds so full of shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:44.579)
He sounds like a fucking nervous bookie.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:48.659)
Like he's, as we can all see, like fuck you, you lying piece of shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:55.539)
You're a fucking con man.
Unknown Speaker (01:13:58.659)
He is.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:00.340)
He doesn't even believe the dumb shit that he says.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:03.220)
Listen to him.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:04.500)
He might.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:05.460)
I kind of regret, I think in a way earlier episode of this show, I might've said he has
Unknown Speaker (01:14:10.340)
some decent ideas and stuff like that.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:13.140)
But I think really when I examine it more, I'm just responding to like the vague self
Unknown Speaker (01:14:17.619)
help stuff that is incorporated within all the other dangerous messages.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:21.939)
And so I mean, I could still defend that.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:23.939)
I could still say like, yes, this vague self-help stuff that you could get anywhere.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:28.260)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:28.500)
That's like, I can defend goop for occasionally being vaguely self-help-y.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:32.899)
But I think I probably just didn't analyze that nearly enough.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:37.060)
So anyway, sorry if I wasn't hard enough on David Ike before, but he stinks.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:42.420)
So I don't know at the end of this what we've seen in terms of any progression.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:50.659)
I think we're still seeing a bit of a holding pattern on his part.
Unknown Speaker (01:14:54.260)
I think you're starting to see the audience catch up to him on being salacious about this.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:01.140)
And because he took more calls, you're seeing that influence come into the program.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:05.699)
And then the idea, I mean, how's Alex going to do a December 21st, 2012 show and not have
Unknown Speaker (01:15:10.819)
David Ike on?
Unknown Speaker (01:15:11.779)
But because of the timing of it, David Ike is also introducing a lot of really bad ideas
Unknown Speaker (01:15:16.500)
to the proceedings.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:17.539)
So that is some evolution, but we'll see where it goes from here.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:20.819)
Well, the fact that he brings up the feedback loop as being like Alex bringing up the feedback
Unknown Speaker (01:15:26.180)
loop as being something that is part of this whole thing, yet not realizing that he's in
Unknown Speaker (01:15:32.500)
that feedback loop with all of his guests, with all of his callers of him saying shit.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:37.619)
All his gun-chill guests. And they're all just mirroring that shit back to him.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:41.939)
He is in this constant, like, there can be no information that I will interact with that
Unknown Speaker (01:15:52.340)
is not supporting my bullshit.
Unknown Speaker (01:15:55.460)
He doesn't realize that he's a part of the loop in the same way that he doesn't realize
Unknown Speaker (01:15:59.460)
that he's a part of politics.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:01.539)
He doesn't actively recognize that he is a part of the thing that he's critiquing in
Unknown Speaker (01:16:06.100)
as much as, like, he's basically just the Jan Morgan of this.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:10.899)
Like, he's like, I'm above the right-left paradigm.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:13.699)
But in reality, everything that he stands for and perpetuates is to try to work to push
Unknown Speaker (01:16:19.140)
people further right.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:20.260)
Right.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:20.659)
So he's mad at the Republicans because they're not far right enough for him.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:24.180)
And that's why he thinks he's above the left-right paradigm.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:27.859)
And it's nonsense.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:28.659)
In the same way he thinks he's above this feedback loop that's going on when he is pushing
Unknown Speaker (01:16:33.220)
it super far towards the Sandy Hook was fake mentality.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:37.619)
Oh, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:38.180)
So, yeah, that's a good point.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:39.779)
And he doesn't realize it.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:40.899)
And that will be to his own detriment.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:42.899)
Hopefully.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:43.539)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:43.779)
Hopefully it will be further to his own detriment as events progress.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:48.659)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:49.300)
So anyway, guys, we will be back on Friday.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:52.819)
But until then, we have a website.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:54.260)
We do have a website.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:55.140)
It's knowledgefight.com.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:56.579)
That's correct.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:56.899)
We're also on Twitter.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:57.779)
We are on Twitter.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:58.579)
We have a handle.
Unknown Speaker (01:16:59.699)
It's at knowledge underscore fight.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:01.380)
We are also on Facebook.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:02.579)
We are also on it.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:06.500)
We are.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:09.699)
Yeah, we're great at plugs.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:11.300)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:11.699)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:11.939)
We often do really high pitched voices.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:16.100)
Really, really phone them in.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:18.979)
Phone in those plugs.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:21.300)
Oh, yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:22.180)
I'm looking over this and I'm not seeing anybody I like in this.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:27.460)
No, there's a there's a murderer's row of murderers on this show.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:31.460)
Oh, boy.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:33.619)
Do you think David has ever actually killed somebody?
Unknown Speaker (01:17:36.579)
I don't know.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:38.420)
He's crazy enough that he might have.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:40.579)
You think so?
Unknown Speaker (01:17:41.140)
I bet Bob bars never killed anybody.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:43.220)
I bet Bob bar has totally killed somebody.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:45.779)
I don't think that's stereotypical white voice.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:48.819)
I don't think that's accurate.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:50.260)
I think Bob bars in the clear.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:51.699)
He's been a part of some bad, bad stuff.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:54.579)
I'll tell you who's never killed anybody.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:56.020)
Who's that?
Unknown Speaker (01:17:56.579)
Bob Barker.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:57.460)
Oh, okay.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:58.340)
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker (01:17:58.739)
I guarantee that of all the people we have talked about in this show, only Bob Barker
Unknown Speaker (01:18:04.500)
didn't come up with Alex, but came up in the episode.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:06.899)
So good enough.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:07.619)
Bob Barker probably hasn't killed anybody, but technically one guy has.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:11.699)
That guy is Alex Jones.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:14.100)
Andy in Kansas.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:14.979)
You're on the air.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:15.539)
Thanks for holding.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:18.100)
Hello, Alex.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:18.819)
I'm a first time caller.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:19.699)
I'm a huge fan.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:20.500)
I love your work.
Unknown Speaker (01:18:21.380)
I love you.
