I'm sick of them posing as if they're the good guys saying we are the bad guys knowledge
and your knowledge fight
I need money
Andy and Kansas
Andy and Kansas
Stop it
Andy and Kansas
Andy and Kansas
Andy and Kansas
Andy and Kansas
It's time to pray
Andy and Kansas
You're on the air, thanks for holding
Hello Alex, I'm a person calling, I'm a huge fan
I love your work
Knowledge Fight
No, no, no, no, no, knowledgefight.com
I love you
Hey everybody, welcome back to Knowledge Fight, I'm Dan
I'm Jordan
We're a couple dudes that sit around, drink novelty beverages and talk a little bit about what's going on with that weirdo Alex Jones
Indeed, we are Dan
We're the weirdos who talk about that weirdo Alex Jones
Yeah, which one of us is weirder, who knows
That is a good question
I have a question for you though
Great, love questions
Can't get enough of them
Have you received a Valentine as an adult?
Probably, yeah, but I'm making it
You think so?
Yeah, I mean, when do you become an adult?
Well, when was the last time you got a Valentine?
I don't know, it's been a while
Probably a while, yeah, I don't know
In relationships in the past, there have been like little Valentine's
Yeah, like a card?
I mean, I consider, when you say Valentine, I really think of like, it has to be something that you're not seeing the person
You know what I mean? It has to be someone who you're not in a relationship with
Okay
I feel like in school, that was always outside of the context of you being in a relationship
It was just, you give the whole class
Yeah, everybody got a Valentine
Yeah, yeah, yeah
At least hopefully
And then you get into high school and it evolves to like, there are people you can buy roses from
Ooh, I know, that's so gross
But that's in a relationship
Hopefully
It can go real bad
I don't know, the dynamics of Valentine giving has always struck me as a little weird
Right?
Yeah, I don't know if it's ever been something I've put too much stake into or interest
But I don't know, I got a nice card from a girlfriend ten years ago
Well, that's great, that's nice
I haven't gotten an adult Valentine
No?
No, no, never
I mean a card, I've always thought of a Valentine as a card
Right
You know, like, you go out to dinner, that's not a Valentine
Right, you're really materialistic
Yeah, that's what I'm about
Yeah, you're all about the money and the things
Absolutely
Yeah, I don't know
Every kiss begins with hallmark is what I say
It seems like it's definitely something that is more less relevant
Yeah
I think you could say less relevant in adulthood
Yeah
I do not care
Absolutely
So this is probably because I don't know much about adult Valentineing
And also, I know a lot about Alex Jones
And I don't know anything about either
Right, Jordan, so today we are still in the present because this shit is getting wild
Of course
Today we're going over February 9th and a little bit of the 10th, 2020
I'm Dan, this is 2020
God damn it
And that's the Sunday show and a little bit of Monday
Monday is not very interesting, but Sunday is fascinating
Okay, okay

Yes, thank you very much, Jared
Or Gerard, as it may be

Could be, absolutely
If you're out there listening and you're thinking
Hey, I enjoy this show
I'd like to support these gents too
You can do that by going to our website
www.knowledgefight.com
Clicking the button that says
Support the show, we would appreciate it
It would be very helpful
And thank you so much to everybody
For, like, supporting the show
And just, we haven't said this in a while
But we are a little less than two months behind
Of course you are
In terms, like, the lag from donation to shout-out
So thank you to everybody for your patience
There's just very little way we can figure out
How to give people shout-outs
Without completely dragging the show
To a complete halt
So thank you so much for your patience
Thank you very, very much to everyone
Also, thank, I gotta give a thank you to
A listener who reached out to me
Because they gave me a little bit of a correction
Or at least pointed something out that I got wrong
And I need to make a little correction
About our last episode
Gotcha, gotcha
So on our last episode
I responded to Mike Adams
Citing a stat from Neil Ferguson
About the coronavirus outbreak
And I made an incorrect assumption
Because there's someone named Neil Ferguson
Who's come on Alex's show a bit in the past
And is from the UK
Who had recently written an op-ed
About the coronavirus
I assumed that that was the Neil Ferguson
That Mike was referring to
As this listener, ironically named Alex
Pointed out there is another Neil Ferguson
Who is an actual public health expert
From Imperial College London
And I apologize that I got that wrong
So because I dismissed the claims
That were made based on believing them
To have come from a humanities professor
It's only right that I take a look at them now
Given that they're supposedly coming from someone
Your opinion is a little more valid on the subject
Sure
A couple of important qualifications here
Are that Ferguson's number is an estimate
And in the interview where he expresses this estimate
He also says that they don't know enough to be sure
Even if there are as many cases as he is estimating
He's also very specifically talking about people
Who come down with very mild forms of the virus
Who may not even know they have it
And may not even be contagious
In the interview, Ferguson doesn't get into
The modeling too much
Or explain how his estimate was reached
Also, notably, he's not freaked out about it
And it's almost a side thought in the conversation
That's not even something that's nailed on too much
But it's the piece of the conversation
That is taken and amplified all over the place
Even if what Ferguson is estimating is accurate
Which he's not even concretely saying
It doesn't justify the way Mike Adams
Was using that figure
For instance, Mike took that 50,000
New infections number that Ferguson was estimating
And he connected it with the 15% mortality rate
From the Lancet study
To say that China would be looking at 7,500 deaths a day
The cases that were a part of Ferguson's estimate
Were largely very mild cases
And not the ones that would lead to deaths
Whereas the Lancet study was a breakdown
Of 41 patients who presented already having pneumonia
So those are the severe cases
And it's an inappropriate use of these statistics
In another article from February 10th in the Telegraph
Ferguson said, quote,
Our estimates, while subject to much uncertainty
Due to the limited data currently available
Suggest that the impact of the unfolding epidemic
May be comparable to the major influenza pandemics
Of the 20th century, which is to say swine flu
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
That sort of thing
Not great
Yeah, that's to say that it is a serious public health issue
But it's not an apocalyptic event
The way Mike Adams is trying to use
Ferguson's estimates to suggest
Anyway, I apologize for mixing up the Neal Ferguson's
I made a little bit of a hasty assumption
Based on a familiar name popping up
And I'll be sure to be more careful about that
In the future, point still remains
It's unfair
Like Adams is out of line
It's unfair
One of those Neal Ferguson's needs
To relinquish their British citizenship
Otherwise we will be confused forever
Or just relinquish the name
And I would say that it should be the humanities professor
He's been on Info Wars
Let's rename him
Anyway, I just wanted to get that out of the way up top
Because, you know, bungled a little something
Wonderful
Anyway, and also thank you to listener Alex for pointing that out
I'd really appreciate it
Yes, thank you very much
So, we start here on February 9th
And I should say that
Prior to this clip
The show started
And it started with 311
The band, 311
Oh, okay
Today seems like a good day
Oh, boy
Why did it start with 311?
Alex is a fan of it
Alex is fake reggae nonsense
Hold on
Hold on
You're making a
Much like I did on the last episode
Alright
You're making a hasty assumption
Wait, so the band 311 is in studio?
No, they just play some 311 music
And Alex is having a tough time
Okay
Well, well, well, ladies and gentlemen
I'm Alex Jones, your host
To be just to clarify even further
The 311 plays
Then there's silence
And then we get this Star Wars music
And I'm going to start the show
At the beginning of the next segment
It's a new pastime
A new thing we do here
Hell, we'll probably do it tomorrow again
I'm not ready to start the show
And that's just the way it is
I've got a little OCD over the years
And if the broadcast starts
With music that sounds like
We're sitting back drinking pina coladas
And just woke up in the garden
To eat them before the serpent
Well, it just makes me
That's what 311 feels like
I'm in the middle of a total fight
For the complete future of human civilization
311 does this
So that's where we are right now
Listen, I don't like 311 either
I don't like 311 either
I don't hate 311 as much as I might have
When I was a little younger
But this is an overreaction
I do hate 311
Specifically, you heard me
I was singing along with Fascination Street
So before we started the show
Not singing along with it, I was just singing it
And 311's cover of Love Song
I will never forgive them for
Amber is not the color of your energy
Terrible, hate them
Hate 311
The end
I was trying to figure out a way to work
Beautiful disaster into a sentence
I don't even like that you know 311 songs
I like to get high
For a while back when I was younger
Loved it
I think those timelines are off
I don't think those timelines
Are accurate though
Because I think I might have liked 311
Before I was old enough
That I was smoking weed
Anyway, who cares?
This is a podcast where we get to the bottom of this
311 throws Alex off
To an extent where he has to restart
The show over again
Which is awesome
Anyway, Alex gets into talking about
His main story
Of course, the coronavirus
Naturally
He gets into it a little bit
Thankfully
It is not the main focus
Of a ton of this episode
We will get other topics to discuss
I assume he's sold out of a lot of stuff then
You know, you gotta kind of think that
That might be the first
So it's nice to have some other
Topics to talk about but of course
He has to keep that ball in the air
He has to keep juggling it
A little bit here
I'm obsessed with the coronavirus
Because it is man-made
And they're acting really sneaky about it
And they're not just doing this
Martial law thing
To create a precedent and get us scared
They're like, oh, don't be scared
But we've got martial law in place
And the UN is praising Xixi Ping
For killing people in the streets
At checkpoints
A couple quick points on this last clip here
One, Alex is obsessed with the virus
Because he's seeing a drastic increase in his sales
He's already said that his immune gargle
Sold out and if you go to my
Patriot Supplies website
They're saying they have a 12x increased order volume
Surprise! Now naturally
Not all of those sales are coming through Alex
Since they also sponsor pretty much
All of the big right-wing alarmists
Including Glenn Beck
But it's clear that Alex's share of the sales are rising
Two, any government that decides
To enact martial law probably doesn't care
Too much about there being a precedent
Of silly. Also, this fails
To take into account the quarantining cities
Already has a long precedent
In 2014, the city of Yumen
In China was put into lockdown
After a man there died of the bubonic plague
During the SARS outbreak in 2003
While they didn't quarantine a whole city
Canada quarantined over 30,000
People in Toronto
Even though they only had 250 probable cases
Of the virus
The experts don't believe that strict
And enforced large-scale quarantines
Deal with outbreaks, but also they really can't
Stop a country from doing them
If there were some international ban
On quarantining, Alex would claim
That it was the globalist infringing on a country's
Sovereign right to lockdown a city if they wanted to
So it really is all just nonsense
God, can you imagine if governments
Listen to experts? That would be hilarious
It would be wild
It would be an insane world we'd live in
So there are international health regulations
That countries have agreed to
But the issue is that they are not enforceable
So the third thing, third point about that
Clip, is that there's no evidence
I can find that the video involving
The alleged woman who'd been shot
At a checkpoint has been verified
This is just something that Alex saw
That someone had tweeted and I have no idea
If it's real or current
I don't know what the truth is there
And neither does Alex
He's assuming that it's real without any confirmation
Or journalistic due diligence
And to the larger point, people are not applauding
China for instituting a quarantine
In all these brutal crackdowns
And actually, what they're doing is likely
A part of a complicated balancing act
Because those international health regulations
Are not enforceable, they're completely up to each country
To abide by them willingly
If a country doesn't cooperate in a crisis
That crisis is going to be impossible to deal with
And that affects the whole world
So while there is growing evidence
Of a lack of transparency on China's part
Potentially
And of course, there are definite questions
Whether or not the quarantining of millions
Of people is a great idea
The praise that people, like the head
Of the World Health Organization are expressing
Are not about those issues
We're in a public health emergency
On a, you know, just broadly speaking
And successful navigation of that emergency
Depends on China's cooperation
Vox interviewed a couple experts about this
And I think that their perspective is helpful
In understanding some of these public statements
That people have been making
For one, it's very important that China
Identified and sent out the genome
Of this virus in prompt fashion
So that is something that is worthy of praise
And, you know, you can hang your head on that
That's, that's fine
No, Alex said they didn't
Sure, but the issue comes down to diplomacy
Devi Shridhar
The chair of the global public health
At the University of Edinburgh
Told Vox
Quote, the World Health Organization
Has a difficult balancing act
They have to somehow retain being the lead coordinator
And director of international health work
And the trade-offs they are having
To make are about the greater good
Right now the greater good
Is to create positive incentives
For countries to collaborate
With the World Health Organization
To share data, to let missions into China
If that means publicly having
To praise China, I understand it
Lawrence Gostin
A global health law professor at Georgetown
Said, quote, if the World Health Organization
Criticizes China publicly
It's possible they can be less transparent
Less cooperative
If I was in Tedros, the head
Of the World Health Organization
If I was in his shoes, I'm not entirely sure
I would do anything differently
This is a really complicated kind of thing
And the reality is that these
International health regulations are great
And people agree to them after outbreaks are resolved
And then they're pretty quickly ignored
Whenever a new one pops up
Isn't that surprising?
Restricting entry of people from affected areas
Is counter to those regulations
But every time there's a public health event
Countries are quick to breach this norm
Mark Eccleston Turner
A global health law professor
At Keel University in England told Vox
Quote, the international health regulation
Operates on mutual trust largely
And it is a mutual trust
That mutual trust has been eroded
Over a number of outbreaks where member states
Have ignored the recommendations from the World Health Organization
I think it's possible that we have at times
Painted too rosy a picture
Of the coronavirus situation
But that's just because I'm responding
To the claims that Alex makes
Which are sensationalist trash
When you're dealing with a guy
Who's saying garbage like
It's over for humanity
There will only be lone survivors
And you pair that with embarrassing sales tactics
I have no qualms about saying
That it's just trash and garbage
That said, it's important to recognize
That serious people do have some critiques
About China's handling of the outbreak
They just don't match up with what Alex is saying
And so when you hear people like the heads
Of the World Health Organization saying
Like we applaud China and something
There is a dynamic of there are things to applaud
And it's not wrong to point those things out
And if you don't do that
You have a state there as
The ability to stop cooperating
And you run the risk of making everything
Worse for the world
All of these issues are best to be dealt with
After the immediacy
Of the situation is handled
How do you
How do you get any
Strong man, a powerful
Dictator on your side
You flatter the shit out of him
We see it with Stevie P's and Alex all the time
So the World Health Organization
Go into China and being like
You guys are doing great, everything
You guys have been kicking ass, we love it
Help us help you, that whole thing
Is going to be far more effective than being like
Here's what you're doing wrong, stop
Stop, stop, stop, change it to this
And do I wish that wasn't the case?
Of course
But unfortunately
The people who understand the situation and the experts
Are pretty clear on that
Which again, no government pays
Any attention to anybody who knows
What's going on, i.e. climate change
But the optics of this are perfect
Because Alex can say that
The World Health Organization
And these leaders are applauding China
And pretend that what they're applauding
Is all of the meme videos that you've seen
And all of the harsh
The crackdown of the quarantine
And that's just not fair
Alex is playing with optics in a way that's
I mean just deceitful
So Alex
He's really
I don't know how to just set this up
Other than to say like he really hates 311
They have been trying
To plunge
The stock market
We're leveraging this information
We're in economic war
They have not been successful but they're going to try
Very, very hard
This week
So we're going to be
Going over all of it
Coming up when we start
The broadcast
At the start of the next segment
I mean right now you might as well just wind
Your watches
Might as well check the weather
Look at the thermometer
Go to the refrigerator
What are we doing here?
Get a glass of ice water
You're on air
Big giant compendium of information
Ready to launch, ready to trigger
And I've got it on the runway
Right there
And that's why we're going to come back
With
Something fitting for a moment like this
Trioxin 9
We're going to start the broadcast over
And it's all going to be
Peachy King
After that point
And I'm going to knock it out of the park
Thanks to all of you
And all of your support
I don't know
It's like you got
Labrador Retrievers in your brain
You have Labrador Retriever puppies
But then they have puppies and it's say poodles come out
That music was
Say panic
You know what
Now
Stay with us
Alex wasted like
Six minutes on air because of 311
You know what
Now I will finally be able to answer
When people are like would you want to talk to Alex Jones
I'd be like yes at a bar
And only about 311
And I would bring peanut along
Nick Hexel
Man he's really affected by 311
Yeah and it's tragic too
Because I would associate people who like 311
With being like susceptible
To info wars propaganda
I don't know if that's the case
Maybe I'm making way too
Broad a generalization but
I would say they're
Subject to Doug Benson's
Form of comedy more than anything else
Yeah so Alex gets back
From break and he starts the real show
And on this
The beginning of the real show he's talking
He's talking about some issues
And one of them it turns out is Rush Limbaugh
Who has come down
With some cancer and got a medal
Of freedom
So Alex has some
Very weird feelings about this
I think he's trying to express
A certain amount of like
You know we feel bad for him
At the same time he also
Seems to think like once he dies
I'm gonna get hit
Where's my medal of freedom
I'm gonna get his radio station
He dies
Open phones second hour of the Sunday show
Then
I'm gonna go home
And see my children
And then I'm gonna come back tomorrow into the 11am
To 3pm broadcast
The 311am
Rush Limbaugh with his lung cancer
And I gotta tell ya
You know Trump's on the phone
Before said stuff like
You know you're gonna be the next Rush Limbaugh
They say and I'm like well actually
I'm more popular than Rush Limbaugh
But on threshold radio
You can say he's a lot bigger
Really fancy myself as the next Rush Limbaugh
Kinda Rush Limbaugh's become
What I talk about a patriot nationalist
Anti-new order guy
That's not that far off
He wouldn't even say the CFR existed but
I gotta tell ya we will probably get a lot of stations
When Rush Limbaugh makes the jump into hyperspace
And I do not have
A good feeling about that
But Rush is pretty much said looks like he's terminal
We hope he has a miracle
And I first held on like the omen
Of Rush Limbaugh
Dying right before the 2020 election
Because he definitely helped Trump get elected
The big way
So Alex is looking at this like a human
Oh man
We really sorry
We hope he recovers
When he dies I'm gonna get all of his shit
So we really, I'm not saying I don't want him to recover
Sucks that Rush is dying before the election
Because we could use him
I'm gonna get his stations and that's great
Man that's not how it works
He's also not, there's a lot of other people in line
For that time slot
There are a hundred other
Because the people who
Syndicate those time slots
On all those stations are people who would never work with Alex
Ever
So there are people like Mark Levin
Or Hugh Hewitt
Or Glenn Beck or Sean Hannity
Like there's plenty of people within that time slot
That would
When the limbaugh goes away
Hannity takes over his time slot
And it's just all over the place
Or whatever, you know whatever the case is
Alex is not next in line
There is no line that Alex is even
In let alone next in
I don't think that there is
A mass of radio stations
That are like fuck
We want to play Alex but the time slot
He's against Rush
It's the time slot, that's it
That's the whole problem
Of all the stations in the country
That might have that dilemma
So Alex is a real shithead
I hate Rush in all this
I'm not interested in
Celebrating him having cancer in any way
I hate him
And I think that this is disgraceful
That Alex is doing
So Alex has some other news
About the coronavirus
As it relates to the United States
And it's a load of shit
In the time I left this segment
I'm going to get to today
First up, we have
The quarantine center set up at
U.S. military bases
DoD reports
That's Miami Herald, we broke this
Almost two weeks ago
And I said they were establishing these
And specifically where they were doing it
And of course we got called fake news
But we have that directly from
White House sources
In the interest of clearness
I've heard Alex saying that the government
For a gigantic quarantine near Seattle
That's the
Specific I've heard him use in the past
As far as I know
The rest of the things I've heard from him
Have been vague and non-specific fears
About camps and shit
In terms of what he's put out on the show
It's been like the Seattle
So this Miami Herald article
Is just about the Department of Defense
Entering into an agreement at the request
Of the Department of Health and Human Services
To provide quarantine space in case
Of additional beds for suspected coronavirus patients
What this comes down to
Is the fact that the bases are equipped
To handle this kind of thing
And they're located in places where they can be
Helpful. The bases that agree to assist
Are specifically ones that are near major airports
So flights entering the United States
From areas affected by the outbreak
Disembark, they have screening measures
Done to the passengers and then suspected cases
Can be taken to the centers at the DoD bases
The article is very clear
That this is still the Department of Health
And Human Services operation
Just using space at these bases
Instead of creating new facilities
That they don't need to create
With the Pentagon spokesman saying
DoD personnel will not be in direct contact
With the evacuees and will minimize
Contact with personnel supporting the evacuees
So how it works
Is that the medical staff will attend to them
And if anyone tests positive for coronavirus
They'll then be relocated
To a nearby hospital
This is also a very limited arrangement
The help agreement only lasts until
February 22nd
The likely reason for this arrangement
Being struck is because earlier this month
Trump signed an executive order that restricted
Travel from China, but it didn't
Completely shut it down
According to the Charlotte Observer
Starting February 2nd, flights from China
To the United States were being directed
To specific airports where the passengers
Could be best screened
It makes sense that the Department of Health
And Human Services would make use of the resources
And if possible, borrow space from the DoD
To house any possible suspected cases
That might pop up, makes total sense
This is very frustrating to me that
All of this sounds incredibly reasonable
And yet somehow Alex is
Attacking it
Because it has the optics that he needs
In order to create the fears that he's already built up
Over the years of FEMA camps
And the only thing you can assume is
He would prefer large, mass-scale panic
And chaos to reasonable
Measures taken to prevent quarantine
He doesn't want actual rioting
Or looting
He wants the controlled chaos that's enough
You're scared enough to buy his product
But you're not scared enough to get out in the streets
That's the sweet spot that he wants people at
Also, it's not like these DoD centers
Would be gigantic prisons or something
According to the very
Miami Herald article that Alex is citing
Each would be able to house a maximum
Of 20 patients
It just seems like good precautions being taken
As far as I can tell
No evidence
Nothing in the article talks about how many people
Are even being taken to those places
If anyone is
There's no
And it's not like they would be the first
Places people are taking because the DHHS
Already has
Places to take people
In case there are tons more
People who are coming in from China
Who are suspected of
Having the virus
Maybe they have to switch
Around and all the soldiers have to go to
The Department of Human Health Services
And all the patients and hospital staff
Have to go to the bases
We have a nice little switcheroo
Everybody learns about each other
This is a 13 going on 30 scenario Dan
And again
To bring sharp focus to this
Like the idea that Alex
And his narratives are designed to get you
No matter what you do
If they didn't do something like this as a precaution
Or have these plans
At the wheel they're letting us all die
They don't give a shit about us
Do you hear Trump said bullshit?
That was pretty great
That was pretty great
Anyways, the Saxons
2000 years ago
I've never seen something so sexy
Politically
Gross
So we get off the coronavirus stuff
And that's great
Because it's been a while
Since we've had anything really juicy
But it's not good
It's a nice breath of fresh air
Novelty is the best we can hope for
It's from a dumpster
It's fresh air, but it's also
Downwind from a dumpster
This one's from a McDonald's
Instead of a Burger King, that's nice
So Chris Matthews
After the New Hampshire
Democratic primary debate
Made some comments about how
Bernie gets in, he might kill his rivals
Chris Matthews lost his mind too
Yeah, it was a little bit
Was it unhinged?
Not unhinged, I don't know
It was irresponsible
Everybody thinks that I don't know what I'm talking about
That's just because I yell all the time
But Bernie's gonna murder all of his family
So Alex picks up on this
And he's like
Great
This is quite interesting
MSNBC's Chris Matthew suggests Bernie Sanders
Could assassinate political opponents of president
President
Now
Hillary has a bunch of people around her dead
In incredibly suspicious circumstances
Air Force coroners
Say that Ron Brown was shot through the head
If you read that
On the air, they say it's a conspiracy theory
When it's a public fact
They had a coroner in Arkansas
Called Family Malick that would rule that
People were found with their arms, legs, and heads cut off
In plastic bags
In a dump
A person committed suicide multiple times
So it's pretty fun
That Alex is doubling down on Chris Matthew
Suggesting Bernie will kill political opponents
Based on nothing, and at the same time
Celebrating Trump firing people who testified
Against him in clear acts of retaliation
For them testifying
I don't really care about Chris Matthew's dumb ass
So I'm not even getting engaged with that
But I wanted to talk about
Calm down, Chris
But I wanted to talk about these Hillary murders a little bit
Before we get into any of this
That's my favorite Agatha Christie novel, by the way
The Hillary murders
Poirot
You're cute, Poirot
The Belgian gets to the bottom of it
He's not French
So before we get into any of this, just off the top
This is all just a part of that dumb Clinton body bag
Shit that was started by the Waco
Conspiracy theorist named Linda Thompson
Back in the 90s as a way to attack Bill Clinton
People have gone over this list
Of people who were quote-unquote close to the Clintons
Who died and none of them really stand up to scrutiny at all
Interestingly though
Linda Thompson appeared as a guest on
Bill Cooper's show The Hour of the Time
15 times
Nice, there you go
There we go, alright, hey
Might have to get into some of those
I listened to one and it was very boring
But there might be some other gems in there
Well see, if Hillary Clinton kills anybody else
I'm sure she'll be back on
I think
Oh, it might be too late for Bill Cooper's show
Yeah, he's not on the air anymore
The first case that Alex brings up
Is Ron Brown
Ron Brown was the first African-American
To be chairman of the Democratic National Committee
And then when Clinton was elected
Brown became the first African-American
To serve as secretary of commerce
On April 3rd, 1996
He was one of 35 people who were tragically killed
In a plane crash over Croatia
And based on a small detail
In the coroner's report, conspiracy theorists
Started spreading all this shit
About his death
Which showed what appeared to be a small round wound
Which folks decided must be a bullet hole
This theory is super weak
Considering that the X-ray suspiciously
Did not also include a bullet
Any bone fragments
Or an exit wound
Which makes it super unlikely that he was shot
Why don't they make the bullets out of the black box
You know what I'm saying?
There's so much more that needs to be explained
For this to be plausibly presented as a murder
In neither Alex nor any of the Clinton conspiracy crowd
Has ever provided anything close to an explanation
For how they think this went down
Like let's say he was
Shot before
They just dragged him on the plane
And everyone got on the plane with a dead body
No way, no
Obviously the way this goes down
Is a D.B. Cooper style
Fucking hijacking
The CIA agent
Or NSA agent or whatever you want
Breaks into the plane, sets it down
Kills the pilot, says we're all going down
Then walks into the
Into the fuselage
Shoots the guy and then jumps out the side
And parachutes out
Why do you need to shoot him if you're going to have a plane crash
That kills everybody
Because what if he survives
And then he winds up eating everybody else
And only gains their strength and comes back
To bite you in the ass
You have some interesting ideas
But like I said, there's a lot more
That needs to be fleshed out in this conspiracy theory
People have failed to do that
So that's one I'm not going to count
But I'm going to have to say
This is D.B. Cooper's tragic
Of that to happen
So as for Fammy Malek
What Alex is referring to here is the case
Of Don Henry and Kevin Ives
I have no idea what he's talking about
With suicide and people in bags
And all that stuff
But he's clearly talking about these two guys
Henry and Ives aged 16 and 17
Respectively were hit by the
4.25 am train
On August 23rd 1987
As they lay on the tracks
They had been out hunting and had some weed
In their system which may have led to the corner
Fammy Malek
To conclude that they were passed out from the weed
And got hit by a train having fallen asleep
On the tracks
The families did not accept that determination
So they got a second opinion and the information
That came up made it seem very clear
That these kids were murdered
For instance they found a stab wound
In one of their backs and the second corner
Found that they had way less weed in them
Did she miss the stab wound?
He and
I assume that the explanation would be
Like you just think it's a train
Wound or something like that
I could see that, yeah
A train wound? Well maybe not
From here all sorts of conspiracies
Started swirling around about how these kids
Must have accidentally seen something
They shouldn't have like a drug deal
That would implicate then governor of Arkansas
Bill Clinton None of this has ever been proven
And it's accepted as truth
Bill Clinton conspiracy crowd
I see that as a bit of a leap
It is, from where I'm sitting
I think it's entirely possible that family Malek
Was just super super bad at his job
He quit his position in 1991
Under harsh criticism that he had a pattern
Of botching autopsies
It's not good
There was the 1989 case of Olivia Ward
Which he determined to be a murder
But further examination found to be inconclusive
With no evidence of murder at all
It's not like he always bungled cases
Of Henry and Ives was definitely not
An isolated incident in his tenure
At the coroner's office
And the other cases he made mistakes in
Don't seem to have any relation to the Clintons
Nor does Henry and Ives is
Unless you are operating off guesses
And theories that aren't substantiated
So Alex says these two examples
Of Clinton murders that he throws out
Pretending that they're solidly proven
But they're absolutely not
This is all just dumb old right wing conspiracy shit
And more to the point
That Henry killed every person she's ever met
In her life
That has nothing to do with Bernie
Who if you've forgotten, Hillary hates
Yeah, yeah, but that's only because
Bernie has also killed everyone
He's ever met in his entire life
And the two of them are on a collision course
They're on a murder contest
Yeah
They're keeping Italian home
This election season is going to be ugly
Even in ideal situations and circumstances
The last thing we need is Chris Matthew
Saying dumb shit like Bernie might kill people
Bernie might kill me tomorrow
I don't know
God, he's so stupid
And the way that that sort of thing
I don't know if it's a lack of awareness
Or a lack of caring or how that's going
To be used by people like Alex
But people should just be more
Fucking careful
So I don't think the people
On TV who have opinions
Know what they're talking about ever
I think they might be just assholes
At least your argument is
It looks stronger
By the day
So I thought that this is just going to be
Chris Matthews talks about Bernie killing people
And then Alex gets to go off
On a Clinton conspiracy
Jag and I thought that was it
I think he's going to kill Stephen Miller first
I thought maybe
Just going to rehash
Some of these old Clint body bag things
Alex is going to be like, man I miss Larry Nichols
Something, I thought that was going to be it
No, it turns out
Alex has decided like
Why not play with fire?
Hundreds of people have been sued
By DNC lawyers for just
Questioning Seth Rich's death
Oh no
governmental
Or political hit
FBI lying about
Murder of Seth Rich
Attorney claims
What America News isn't scared
They talk to the lawyer
The lawyer says it goes all the way up to the top
Hillary Clinton
You see
Bernie Sanders might kill people
Because a bunch of his staffers drool
They're communists, that's what communists do
Wife and children
To put them in a forced labor camp
Sure
But
It's legitimate to say he might do that
Something true out of Chris Matthews' mouth
But can we say Hillary might have had
They certainly don't want
I guess now
Asking that question, that's all
Coming up
Alex better be really fucking careful
Or else he's going to fuck around and get himself sued
No, come on, you want to
This is not the road you want to go down
Look, if he
Here's the thing, he's making
So much more money now
He's like, I'm playing with the house
So I might as well go hard
I'll pick Seth Rich
On a slander
Mania episode
Also, Humby
I lied about my apology
He's still an evil guy who's bringing in
Rapist
He has already said that
So this is a story that Alex is covering
One American news network
Is putting this out, so Alex is covering that
It's about a couple of emails that turned up
In a FOIA request
For all the emails between Peter Strock and Lisa Page
There were a couple of emails
Starting Seth Rich, but it's pretty important
To recognize the context of these
Interactions and these emails
Seth Rich died on
July 10th, 2016
And these emails are from August 10th, 2016
They're not really about
Seth Rich or any investigation of his death
It's very clear from the first
Email in the chain that this was specifically
About claims that Julian Assange
Had been making really vaguely in the media
That Seth Rich was the source of the emails
That WikiLeaks published
This email, the initial one
Is from the public affairs office
Or the media relations section of the FBI
Asking some folks if the FBI
Had any involvement in this
There are a lot of parts retracted
For who knows what reason, but the exchange
As it appears seems to be them saying
That there is no FBI involvement
The emails got caught up in this FOIA request
Because Strock ended up forwarding
The email to Page
Who was an FBI lawyer looping her in
On the situation in case there's
Any legal implications
None of this seems very suspicious at all
Unless you already believe that Hillary
Had Seth Rich killed
And you let your imagination run wild
About the parts that are redacted
I'm very much unimpressed with this
Development in the case of this evidence
I think it demonstrates literally nothing
But I am very, very worried
For Alex's legal situation
I just don't have faith in his ability
To thread needles anymore
If he gets to talking about this case
He's gonna end up slandering someone
He can't stop himself
He just can't, why isn't there
Somebody there to throw
Shit at his head and be like
No, no, no, Seth Rich
If you hear Seth Rich, some kind of
Can should come out and hit him
In the side of the head
Do you remember how bad and weak
Your shit was before?
Do you remember how a lot of your information
Was lies the Jerome Corsi was telling you
And you sued you
Do you know...
You really need to be careful, Alex
This is not a road you want to go down
But it turns out Alex is basically
A professor in criminal justice
I don't think he is
He starts telling you how you do an investigation
Let's talk about some important things
This segment
We're gonna bring on Columbo
Oh, I also should point out that
This is after he does a three minute
Like, I love
The song Stranglehold
He's just rocking out to Stranglehold
It's in juxtaposition with
Fucking hate 311
Ted Nugent, that's where it's at
He's got strong takes
He's got strong takes
That's why he's like, we gotta get down to some seriousness
He's just been fucking around listening to Ted Nugent
For three minutes
When someone who is in politics
Dies
Getting shot a couple times in the back
It's completely legitimate
To speculate
About why
And how
It happened and who could be behind it
And who stands to gain
The old Roman saying is
Kibono
Who benefits
And in any investigation
The first thing you look at is
Who would benefit from this
And then who has the means
I was thought of as a spouse
That we already said who benefits
And then he had the ability to carry it out
The means, he's just repeating himself
Also, please Alex
Demonstrate Kibono
About the Seth Rich
Please demonstrate how Hillary gained from that
She won!
Please do, I mean
I don't even think he can do that
So Alex
Really is in trouble here
He's going down the road
Seth Rich again
I can't stress this enough
If he keeps going down this road
It's going to be trouble
But not for the reasons he thinks
If you talk about Seth Rich
You get sued by the DNC funded law firms
There's
Over 100 lawsuits I know of
Name them
They're scared
They don't want you looking into it
But you know
The data
Via some of these suits
That actually went the other way came out
And it's come out in federal court
That
The download
Information
On the
Hack DNC servers
Because you can look on the files
And see how it was downloaded
At the time it happened
Was six times faster
Than any streaming
Service capability in the world
So quick point
The people who are getting sued
For spreading misinformation about Seth Rich
Are not getting sued by the DNC or Hillary Clinton
They're getting sued by Seth Rich's parents
Who have been very clear in the past
That they're being re-traumatized
By having their son's tragic death
Being used for political propaganda
There aren't 100 suits about this
Alex is making that up to seem like the DNC
And Hillary are desperate to do a cover up
But in reality it's just a family fighting back
Against people who have caused them harm
Which seems like a theme in Alex's career
It seems like he hurts people
He hurts people a lot
And kills dogs for some reason
Also that stuff that Alex is saying
About the download speeds being too fast
To be a hack didn't come out in court
That stuff that passed infowars guest
William Binney had claimed
Which was used to give credibility
To the narrative that Russian intelligence
Couldn't have been behind the hack
It had to be an inside job
Because the speeds were so quick
It had to be a USB drive
That was used to get these files
Could not have been done by a download
No, there's no such thing as a fast internet connection
So the first problem was that this claim
That the speed at which the files were downloaded
Was 22.7 megabytes per second
Exceeded available internet download speeds
That isn't true
Yeah, that can't be
That was speed that could be achieved
By widely available internet connections
Over the world
Just based on that little bit of information
This theory is shaky at best
As it turns out
Binney wasn't working from any real analysis
Of his own. He was just using information
He'd received from a man named Adam Carter
Who was allegedly a researcher
And tech expert. As it turns out
Adam Carter's real name was Tim Leonard
And he was less an expert
As he was a 39 year old troll
From the United Kingdom with a bit of a track record
Of sparing misinformation on Reddit
Or Chan. Most of it
Having to do with how Russia didn't hack the DNC
That does seem pretty consistent
He'd even created a
Second mysterious identity called
Forensicator, which he used to prop up
The findings of his other alias
They worked in concert to prop each other up
Holy shit, CBS just picked that up for a full slate
This shell game
Of fake identities was tracked down by
Info security researcher and expert Duncan
Campbell
And this led to some interesting consequences
Under his Adam Carter alias
Leonard operated a website called G-2
That sought to show that Guccifer 2.0
Couldn't have been Russian intelligence
Through this site, Leonard
Sent William Binney a file that claimed
To show that the hack was an inside job
I'll read to you here from Duncan Campbell's
Piece about his research that was
Published in computer weekly
Quote, the untitled file included
Complex details explaining how
To unlock information inside a tranche
Of files released by Guccifer 2.0
In London, metadata in the files
Had been manipulated to prove
That the documents could not have been
Or could have been stolen
Only by a Democratic National Committee
Employee. This file
That was sent to Binney had manipulated
Metadata, which made it appear that the
Download was impossible except
Locally. Binney did no analysis
On the files himself, but instead
Took this information and took it as gospel
The work into this file was attributed
To Leonard's other alias, Forensicator
And from there, Forensicator
Was, I guess, just deemed
Credible by Binney without further
Question.
Binney began making the rounds on
Rewing media offering this smoking gun
That it wasn't Russian hacking. His claims
Are all over Breitbart, Hannity, and of
Course he showed up at Monchon Infowars
His claims even made it all the way
To Trump, who told then CIA
Director Mike Pompeo to meet
With Binney to get information that
Would prove that Russia didn't hack the DNC
God
But he knows that they did
And Pompeo did meet
With them and that makes
This very sad, especially
Considering the next development
Duncan Campbell was able to get William
Binney to visit Britain and analyze the
Actual data contained in the actual
Goose for Files and quote
A month after visiting CIA headquarters
Binney came to Britain
After reexamining the data in the
Goose for 2.0 files thoroughly
With the author of this article, Binney
Changed his mind. He said there was
Quote no evidence to prove where the
Download copy was done. The Goose
For 2.0 files analyzed by
Leonard's G2 space were
Quote manipulated, he said, and a
Quote fabrication.
Even William Binney has come out and admitted
That the basis for his claims about
Download speeds and how it's impossible
That the hack wasn't an in-house operation
Was bullshit and a fabrication.
There's nothing here other than a supposed
Expert getting tricked by a troll
And in the process tricking the fucking
President. Alex is lying
Saying that the information came out in court
When in reality it was bullshit that he
Unquestioningly accepted from William Binney
Who had unquestioningly accepted it from
Leonard. Alex is reopening his interest
Into Seth Rich, which is a really bad idea
And defending that decision based on
Lies about things his sources don't even
Still believe. This is bad news
Yeah, that must have been a real bummer
For Binney whenever it got too far
Cause then he had to admit that it was
Bullshit. Cause if he, if it didn't go all
The way up to Pompeo talking to him
He wouldn't have retracted that
He'd still be going on in forward.
Yeah, it's possible. It's possible.
If Duncan Campbell like had, you know, still
Still gone through the process that he did
Of figuring all this stuff out. Yeah.
And convinced William Binney
To come do the work over with him.
Sure. I imagine
That Binney would have been like, yeah, you know what
You're right. Could be. Could be.
I just halfway expect all of these people
To take a fucking mask off
And reveal that they're Jacob Wall underneath
Like these people are all insane.
Well, that's another one of Alex's big narratives
About Seth Rich is the guy investigating
Him got shot for investigating him
And that was
The guy Burton
Who
Works with Jacob Wall on all these
And he didn't get shot because
He was investigating Seth Rich. He got shot
With like a BB gun
By a guy who he was collaborating
On a Seth Rich investigation with
Because the investigation turns south.
See, this is what I'm saying. These people
Are all children. Not Burton, Berkman.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
So, Dick, all of this
Is bullshit. It's
It's outrageous. It's gonna, it's gonna
If he keeps going down this road, it's gonna be really bad.
Great. But I'm excited to see if he does.
Yeah, I know because he's it's dangerous.
It is nice to see him
Get all that money and then rush
As fast as he can to get sued to get it all
Taken away again. It's very strange.
What an idiot. Yeah. So
Another thing that might end up costing Alex a bit
Of money is he is now
Comfortably settled in to
Selling his immune gargle
Based on a claim
Yeah, that it is good
At preventing or helping with SARS.
Sure. We have sold out of the 16
Ounce immune gargle that has
The nano silver that's pat did
And documented even admitted in documents
Show him to go after this whole corona
SARS family of viruses, viruses
Of bacteria, period.
So viruses are bacteria
He said viruses and back
Okay, all right. I struggled with that as
Well, I was like, I had to listen to it a couple
Times like did you
Because I know that he says that like all
Cancer is virus. Yeah.
Like I know that he has some weird
Thoughts about science
But I think he said viruses and
Yeah, I would have assumed viruses and
If we weren't dealing with Alex Jones
In which case viruses are bacteria
Is just as reasonable a thing for him
It's a possible thing you might believe. Yeah, exactly.
So you got that and it's like, okay
You it's clear we've seen
This path over the last like week
Or so the tentative
Dipping the toe into the pool
Of making these claims. Now he's
Just totally comfortable with it. Yeah, why not
It's let it let it ride. No consequences
For me.
So Jordan, this next clip is long
And
It's very confusing.
Okay, I
Wanted to cut clips of it. Sure
But I can't I have to present
It as a full this is a full segment. Okay
This is a five minute segment
Maybe four ish. It's the first
Segment of it the second hour. Okay
It's where he's coming into
The show and it's that
Segment that isn't carried on
Every station. So sometimes
It's a little bit strange. This
One is very strange. Okay, I need you
To take notes. I need you to pay close attention
Because I don't know if I know what he's saying
Okay, listen to it a couple times
And I I'm very
Confused by this. It's very
Weird when I hear about somebody
Dying
I mean, I have empathy
I'm connected
To them. I know the universe works. It's bad
Mojo to not care. I already
Know that instinctively. I don't need to go like
Oh, it's bad luck if I don't care
Somebody gets hurt. It was innocent.
So at this point I have to
Pause because this is after talking
About Seth Rich. So I thought maybe
He was talking about Seth Rich, but he also
Talked about Rush Limbaugh and how he
Was going to die early. I
Was and I think he hopes 311 dies
So that's in the mix, but he doesn't think they're innocent
No, that's true. That's true
If you'd look at the context, it seems
More likely it's about Seth Rich
Okay, or the feelings at least
But I'm not sure I'm leaning towards
Rush on this one. Or it could be the people in China
I don't know
I mean, I guess that's fine. I don't think he cares
About people in China. I don't know
Yeah, that's fair
I already spiritually know that
But if I was a sociopath
You think I'd know that
But they like don't
Because they don't get the laws of nature
And that's why evil always
Goes, wow, I can do this
And this happens
But they don't think about the next
Couple of things that happen
So being nice
Is the best way to build a good civilization
And have good people around you that are doing well
I mean, if people aren't doing well
I don't care what color they are
Where they came from
How does that make me better? It doesn't
But I then
Because I have a spirit
And I have a conscience and I care
I have
Nerves
I have feelings. I'm not a psychopath
A sociopath
I can't let people manipulate my feelings
Cold-bloodly
And that's where this comes in
People that are good and strong
Have to do the right thing
When it comes down to it
Even though we don't
Let me tell you something. When I fry some enemy
And defeat them, I don't even feel good
I gotta spend time on that person
And I feel bad that they
When I see how bad they are
And how weak they are and how bad their family is
I'm not like
A lot of people I know
Go around poor people
They could be poor black people or white people or whatever
And they feel elitist
Man, did you see those poor dumbass people?
Man, we're not like them
We feel good because they're
They're doing bad
Worst job I ever had
I was like, what's the highest job I can get
Was a carpet cleaner
A Stanley Steamer carpet cleaner
Like 30 years ago
Right out of high school
Longer than that now, I'm getting old
I'm 46
When did you get out of high school?
And I remember like, I get paid
20-something dollars an hour as the assistant
The clean carpets
And my other job is like $9 an hour
Yeah, I'll take this right now
Until I got to people's houses
And I was like
Again, they could be white
They could be black, they could be whatever
They're mainly white people
I've never seen
Anything like this
A dirty carpet
And try to describe what I saw
In the few months I worked there
Dirty carpets
Would take hours
It was hellish
They're just dirty carpets
No, the Bible's true
Humanity's falling, man
I've talked to paramedics
The stuff they see
You talk about PTSD
I'm not taking away from military people
But when we take medics and people
That's the real heroes
Carpet cleaners?
Carpets gave them PTSD
They'll buy the military or deny those
The real heroes
But think about paramedics
Or even police that have got to show up
And see these chewed up bodies
Or you drive by a wreck
You don't know the firefighters
And police are there with dead kids and stuff
Imagine being the first cop to pull up after a wreck
There's a three-year-old with blood spurt
Begging for mommy and you're trying to save them
And you can't
A little baby dies
It doesn't even matter
You knew that's not my fault
I tried to hold it around their neck
I tried to put a little baby
It's a psychic wound
And then there's everybody else
Who just wants to go home and watch Netflix
And you know
Here's some stuff from Jeff Bezos
Some Black Lives Matter
Let's kill the cops
It doesn't even fit
And you've got these billionaires
Sitting up there
Funding Bernie Sanders, by the way
Really?
How much some dude making $100,000 sucks
These are sick freaks, man
They're sick freaks
So that's what it's like
To listen to this show a lot of the time
That's bewildering
I really do not know
Exactly what point he's making
Although, I will say
Before we get to your analysis
I do think I realize
He's implying to imply
With the carpet cleaning
I didn't understand it for a long
I think he's implying that he cleaned up
With satanic rituals or something like that
I think it has to be
Because otherwise, yes, it's a dirty carpet
You're going to see a dirty house
Of someone who can afford a carpet cleaning company
Or maybe he's saying
That he cleaned up murder scenes
Or something like that
He had a contract with the city
His company did or something like that
But if you look at his rituals then
What he did is not report them
Yeah, so he's complicit
Anyway, I have no idea what he's talking about
I think he just has PTSD
From cleaning a lot of carpets
I think that's basically what he's described
Because here he's going through
Give me the path you went on
Okay, so he's got empathy
He does
He's not a sociopath, he is
Being nice and being with good people
Is how you build a good society
He doesn't like it whenever he has to smoke fools
That's terrible
When he fries an opponent
He doesn't feel good because they're so weak
I take no pleasure
And being weak reminds him
Of being a carpet cleaner
Which is the same as being a paramedic
Or a first responder
And he said multiple times
That he doesn't care what race you are
Which means he's talking about black people
Maybe
And
Which means carpets
PTSD
Which takes us to the cops
And paramedics
Seeing a baby at a car crash
And how that leaves a psychic wound
And Black Lives Matter is killing babies
I believe
I forgot about Bezos and the billionaire's funding Bernie
Bezos running Black Lives Matter
This is my new favorite Judy Bloom novel
See, this is the experience
That I go through sometimes
Like sometimes I'm able to sit here
And present you with clips that make sense
And you're like, oh, here's what he's talking about
Here's the bullshit behind it
With the clip about it's come out and court
These download speeds for the goose for hack
I can tell you what he's talking about
Oh, I forgot, the Bible is true
The Bible is true
I forgot about that part
Based on carpet cleaning, the Bible is true
That's what leads me to believe
That he's talking about cleaning up like Satan's rituals
Because the connection to the Bible
Being real is very strange
I refuse to accept there's a real connection
To any of those sentences
So whatever bewilderment you were feeling
Or the audience was feeling while listening
To that rambling nonsense
I know I have PTSD from it
Now, try and imagine my life
Just sit there like, what are you talking about?
I will tell you what, it's a psychic wound Dan
And then imagine
People who are listening to this show
Who believe him hearing that
And not being like, I'm worried about this guy
I can't believe how smart this guy is
Yeah, he knows things
So Alex goes to break
And he comes back
And he starts talking about a recent crime
That was committed
And he's being really dumb
So we're not drama kings
We're not drama queens
But could you imagine
When two years ago you saw Charlottesville
Where- Nope, stop
A crowd attacks a car
A guy drives, hits a woman
She has a heart attack, dies
It's like Trump's a murderer
The KKK's taken over
Destroy America
It's the most powerful thing ever seen
It's all over
Run for the hills
You're saying it's all over
Run for the hills
There are only load survivors
All the attacks on Trump supporters
That means America supporters
People looking up against bullying
People that believe in self-defense
People that believe in life
So many reasons
The people that won't back down under intimidation
The folks God's looking for
I'll just tell you
Trump's just a tester
Of what?

Trump supporters attacked
After Van plows through GOP
Voter registration in Florida
Suspect arrested
There's a white nationalist meme talking point
That's spread to deflect blame
From the guy who hit her with his car
The fact that Alex consistently brings that up
Isn't necessarily proof that he's intentionally running
Interference for white supremacist
But it's definitely a telling marker
As to the sources of information he deems credible
He has to be getting it through that channel
And he's either winkingly
And knowingly repeating it
Or he just thinks that those people know what's up
I would say the latter
So a 27-year-old man did run his car
Into a GOP voter registration
Tent setup
On Saturday
And that's awful
Even though these incidents may seem similar to Alex
In that they both involve cars
When they're viewed together, they actually demonstrate
Clearly why the national conversation
Happened after the Unite the Right rally
And this one will not have the same effect
The first obvious thing
Is that at the Unite the Right rally
Heather Haier was killed
Fatalities will always increase the severity
Of the situation
Conversely, in the case of this guy in Florida
No injuries were even reported
Which makes his action stupid and wrong
But it's not a clear...
It's clearly not as huge a deal
As if he'd murdered somebody
Second, while it appears that the guy in Florida
Didn't like Trump supporters
Lieutenant Larry Gale of the Jacksonville Sheriff's
Office said that, quote,
We don't know if this is politically motivated
We're in Florida, it could be anything
You can make the assumption that it's politically motivated
To have that opinion
But the people investigating it don't know that yet
So it remains to be seen officially
Conversely, at the Unite the Right rally
The political motives of the events that led
To the car attack were pretty well understood
And then finally
You have this very basic aspect
Everyone knows that driving your car
Into people is wrong
The left and right agree on that
Or as they should
So what was particularly unsettling
For people about the Unite the Right rally
Is this response to the fallout of it
When he said that there were very fine
People on both sides
To be fair to Trump, he also said, quote
I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis
And the white nationalists because they should be condemned
Totally, but you had many people
In that group other than white neo-Nazis
And white nationalists, okay
And the press has treated them absolutely unfairly
So, I mean, we finally
Have a president who will recognize the inherent
Decency of people who are willing to march alongside
Open white supremacists and neo-Nazis
So, I don't know if that quote actually
Makes things any better.
Why won't people think of the guilty bystander?
Why won't they think of them, Dan?
Everybody's all talking about the bad people
But don't you
Want to shed a tear
For the people who just wanted
To oppress other people
And had no problems standing alongside
Open neo-Nazis
But of course, they were just
Now they look bad.
So instead of reacting unequivocally
After the rally, Trump tried to defend his side
Instead of respecting
That a woman had been killed
And that goddamn neo-Nazis were marching
Alongside his supporters and recognizing
That there was a real problem there
He decided to provide cover and defense for them
Which most people found shocking and really disgusting
Which they shouldn't have found shocking
But is very disgusting
Conversely, in the case of this guy in Florida
I'll read to you from the New York Post
Quote
As Democrats, but more importantly
Residents of the greater city of Jacksonville
We call on our fellow citizens
To act with dignity, civility, and respect
For one another during this election cycle
And beyond
See, look at how similar their rhetoric is
To Trump's
Of course, you have to condemn them
Roundly, on the left
I have to be ideologically consistent
And say that their rhetoric is
Inflammatory
And is absolutely going to get more people hurt
There wasn't a defense of this guy's actions
No call to consider
Hey, you know Trump's policies are pretty shitty
And his supporters are defending a guy who's hurting a lot of people
There wasn't an attempt to justify
A clearly wrong act by deflecting
Which is the right thing to do
This guy's actions are not indicative
Of the Democratic Party, they are just his bad actions
The actions of white supremacist terrorists
Would not be associated with Trump
If he behaved differently
In crucial situations
Like the press conference after the
Right rally
Because we all agree that running your car into people is wrong
And in this case, no one is trying to pretend
That the conversation is about anything other than that
We all get to move forward
After the agreement
He's been arrested, he will be treated
As appropriate by the law
There's no need to ask what the fuck is wrong
With people trying to justify unjustifiable things
And this is largely why
This is just a bad thing that happened in Florida
That even people like Alex
Will probably not remember in a week
As opposed to a deeply traumatic event
That ripples of which are still resonating
To this day
It's so fucking obvious
But Alex needs to ramp up
The conservative victimhood juice
That's so important
To animating
The rhetoric and the narratives
That he puts forth on his show
That's the fuel that runs this engine
What's disgusting to me about that
Is that it feels so often
Like when some kind of tragedy happens
Due to a white nationalist
Terror attack
The right is not at all
Interested in engaging with that
They're just excited
And hoping that there will be
A what about either later
Or that they can point to
They want a what about
More than they want a resolution to anything
Sure, yeah
But it's all just
In service of we are the ones
Who are under attack
And so you see that here with Alex
Like really just lying
And you see the reports every couple hours
Like
Anti-trumper beats head and boss
Beats boss to death
And head with hammer
And you just see the reports pouring out
And the media says
Hey, they deserve it
So there was a story in late January
A construction worker in Florida
Who was accused of murdering his boss
Who loved Trump, but he didn't use a hammer
He used a trowel
Apparently the two men got into a political argument
And then the dude killed his boss
Before draping an American flag on him
The problem here is that Alex hears
That this guy killed his Trump-loving boss
After a political argument
And he just assumes that the murder is a Democrat
Who hates Trump
In reality, the alleged murder is one of those
Anti-government types
Anti-Casey theory type fella
Anyway, Alex hears
Can't imagine those guys committing any acts of violence
No, Alex is here saying that there's
All these news stories about attacks on Trump supporters
Are coming in every hour
Yes, the best he can do is come up with a story
From over two weeks ago that he doesn't really
Know any of the details of
And it may not make the case he thinks he does
And you can hear those long pauses because
He can't come up with any
If they're coming in every hour, you should probably
Have a couple examples
Two-week-old story that probably isn't
What you think it is
Maybe even just give the one that came in last hour
The most recent of them
Yeah, that would be hard
You prepare 10 hours a day
Clearly have a handle on this stuff
What about the one that came in before you started
The show while you were on air
But then you know that the issue is that
All of these Trump supporters are getting attacked
Every hour, you hear the news stories about it
And then villains
And demons in the media
Like Wolf Blitzer justified
It was like CNN
I watched Wolf Blitzer a few years ago
When Congressman Scalise had been shot
They had a guest on saying he's a hero
He's not a bad guy
He saw fascism and fought it
And Wolf Blitzer said you're right
Hoping more people
Would come kill Trump
Supporting members of Congress
Hey Wolf, if you're ever successful
Starting a civil war in America buddy
It's open season
On your little ass
So on the situation room
On June 14th 2017
While reporting on the shooting at the congressional
Baseball practice, Wolf Blitzer played
A piece that was compiled by CNN's congressional
Correspondent Phil Mattingly
Approximately 7 seconds of the piece
Was an acquaintance of the shooter saying
Quote, I just want to let people know
That he wasn't evil, that he was
I guess tired of some of the politics that are going on
Wolf didn't say that it was good
And in fact after Mattingly finished
Up his presentation of his piece
Here's what Wolf actually said
You know it's interesting Phil
Because clearly he was evil
And on March 22nd as you point out
He posted this on Facebook
Trump is a traitor, Trump has destroyed
Our democracy, it's time to destroy
Trump and company
And then he said Republicans
Are the Taliban of the USA
When you say on a Facebook post
It's time to destroy Trump and company
That's a threat against the
President of the United States
And that's a crime
Not only did Wolf not support the shooter's actions
He directly and clearly rejected
The statement the acquaintance made
Saying that the shooter wasn't evil
Kind of seems like Alex just makes up whatever
He wants in order to satisfy the right wing's
Constant need to portray themselves as victims
What a piece of shit
And it's also just so
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter if it's reality or not
That's what they want to say
Sometimes somebody is trying to be like
Nobody will vote for Bernie
Because they'll call him a socialist
Dude, if Pete is in
They're going to call him a socialist
It does not matter what reality is
It matters what's politically expedient
Right, and I mean it's just
This is blatant shit
I'm going to still blame this on the 311 though
This is probably just the
Alex's head is hazy
He got high by contact with
He got hot boxed with 311
Yeah, yeah, fuck him up
Yeah, that'll happen
So anyway, he's like, hey, Wolf Blitzer
Open season on you when the war comes
And Alex gets to rambling
About fantasies about wanting to kill Wolf
Now, hold on one second
Can I go back here? He has empathy
And it would be crazy
He doesn't like frying his enemies
He doesn't like it, he's not a sociopath
Or a psychopath
I don't know if he actually likes the frying of the enemies
But he certainly likes talking about it
He does! In the past, Jordan
We have said that Alex probably
Technically killed a guy
I think we can now upgrade that
I don't want to ever see Wolf Blitzer hurt
Because
Wolf Blitzer is a human maggot
I mean
Like you really want to start a fight with us
Just
You just can't help it, yeah you do
Don't you? You're begging for it
You're begging
You're begging to get your guts stomped
Out hard
And I don't know Wolf if you ever had your guts stomped
Out, but you don't live after that
Happens
Not that I've ever stomped anybody's
Guts out
Actually I have a couple times, it's not too nice
Takes people a long time to die
If you stomp their guts out
But that's no threat to Wolf Blitzer
So Alex is a mass murderer
He just committed murder on air
He just admitted to murder
Mass
No statute of limitations on murder
We need to get to the fucking bottom of this
Check the Dallas
No kidding
Unbelievable
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Let's go cold case files on
Alex Jones only
I 100% don't believe Alex
But it stomped
Based on his words
He is a
A spree murderer
A multiple murderer
No technically probably anymore
Alex you are a murderer
At the very least murder too
At the very least murder too
Maybe he wasn't premeditated
Maybe he just got angry
But man I would give him 25 to life on this
You know what's really fucked up about that clip
Is like in the past whenever he's talked about
Like these probable technical murders
That he's committed
I'm always in the context of
Hey I didn't like to do it, I was getting bullied
And it's like almost self defense
In nature, this is not
He's sitting there relishing
The slowness of their death
This is a sick fuck right here
He really said
He doesn't enjoy
Frying his enemies
Frying his enemies, but he does enjoy
Watching their guts spill out and die
Slowly, painfully
Right, right, right, he's not a sociopath
Or a psychopath Dan, that would be crazy
The thing that I really need to put a sharp focus on here
Is that like
He's telling the truth, this is the most fucked up thing ever
But unfortunately if he's lying
It's even more fucked up
This is insanely fucked up to lie about murdering people
Because then he wants to be presented
And seen by his audience
As someone who would have
Slowly and painfully murdered
Multiple people
That seems okay or
Positive to him in some way
Which is really gross
This man is just sick
Look, it's a stand your ground law
If the ground is below a human's body
You still get to stand on that ground
I believe
That is disgusting
So anyway, he rambles a bit
About CNN because
Wolf Blitzer got to throw some shots at him
And then
He's not the only one who's going to get it
Anderson Cooper
And if you forget about gods
They're not gods anymore, but Anderson
Oh, Anderson
Just because
You're the last
Vanderbilt on the planet
Your brother
He's going to kill the Vanderbilt
You know the investments
Because your brother wouldn't bend over
What?
You're not going to gang rape America
By yourself
So after getting mad at Wolf Blitzer
Alex descends into a rant just generally
About CNN being bad and it's pretty boring
And formulaic
I decided to cut this clip though because it really illustrates
How Alex is just making up the bullshit he says in his ramblings
For one
In 1988, Anderson Cooper's brother Carter
Committed suicide by jumping out of a window
This is absolutely tragic
And their mother believes that this was the result
Of a psychotic episode caused by bad drug interaction
But Alex is rewriting it
Which is a fucking gross thing to do
Regardless, Anderson Cooper
Does not just have one sibling
Sure, maybe his only brother
From that marriage
That marriage of his mother was Carter
But their father, Wyatt Emery Cooper
Is not where the Vanderbilt lineage comes from
That's from his mother's side
And Gloria Vanderbilt already had two sons
When she married Cooper
And they're both still alive
Episode facto, Anderson Cooper is not the last Vanderbilt
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And that's not even considering that Gloria Vanderbilt
Had a sister, Kathleen Vanderbilt
Or the fact that Cornelius Vanderbilt
Was their great-great-grandfather
And he had 13 children
The family is very diffused now
And there are a ton of living Vanderbilt
Like, guess who?
Timothy Olefant, who was Anderson Cooper's
Third cousin once removed
Yeah, that's right, you probably didn't even know
That Timothy Olefant is a Vanderbilt
I didn't know that
But that's just because he's being sneaky
With a different last name
That does sound right
Like Anderson Cooper
Yeah, I'm not going to hire Timothy Vanderbilt
To be in my western
I'll tell you that right now
No, Timothy Olefant, get him in there
But what about James Vanderbilt?
The guy who wrote the movie Zodiac
The Amazing Spider-Man
And White House Down
That dude also wrote The Meg
Which is that movie about Jason Statham
Fighting a shark
There are tons of other Vanderbilt
Who are still alive
You just don't know about it
Because it doesn't mean anything anymore
The Meg is predictive programming, though
Jason Statham will have to fight a shark
Eventually, yes
Alex is making up that Anderson Cooper
Is the last Vanderbilt
To make him seem like more of a villain
And as an opportunity to mock him
For his brother's death
Because Alex is a profoundly bad person
And also, it turns out he probably
Killed a lot of people
Yeah, he's a sociopath and a psycho
Yeah, he is the worst
He is a fucking monster
Yeah, but this is my educational corner
Where I teach the world that Timothy Olefant
Is related to the Vanderbilt family
That is a nice little fun fact
So Alex goes out to break
And he comes back
And he wants to touch on the Roger Stone news
Oh, I imagined he would
But I'm just going to stop now
And go to your calls until the very end
And I've got to hit this Roger Stone thing
Or maybe I should just do it
At the start of the weekday show
Tomorrow at 11 a.m.
Stop on its guts
It's all over the news
That, well, Roger has to go to prison
For a long time
Because he violated the gag order
Talking to Alex Jones
Really?
Really?
It was about the trial
You're that much of a narcissist
Roger said in news articles
That he wanted a pardon from Trump
If he was convicted
That's his right
And it's un-American
What this judge is doing
It's insane
Roger isn't going to prison
Because he violated the gag order
And talked to Alex
No, he is not
This is one of the more pathetic strawman attempts
I've seen from Alex lately
Seems like he doesn't have a good angle on this
Also, news...
Because he's guilty
That's a problem
That is a problem
Yeah, that's an issue
The news broke that prosecutors are saying
That Roger should do between
Seven to nine years in prison
Which means he'll be in, like, three
Maybe?
Yeah
Probably won't even
I have no faith in the system anymore
Nope
He's not going to prison, I'm sure
Trump's going to pardon him
Interestingly
There are no consequences for his actions anymore
This episode that we're listening to
Is from Sunday the 9th of February
Outlets didn't report the prosecutors' request
For sentencing until Monday afternoon
Which is the 10th
This heavily implies to me
That Alex is getting this news from Roger himself
Or one of his associates
And the spin is to say that he's being sent to prison
For defending himself for some shit
Sure
It's pretty sad
But I'm not going to get too invested in it
Because, like I said, I have little faith
That he's going to see the inside of the prison cell
No
For now, this is just more of that
Classic conservative victimhood narrative building
It's just very, very regular
It is so annoying that the people
Who fucking run everything now
Complain about being the victim
Totally
That's so annoying
Yep
But it's all because of that gag order, man
But Alex has a defense for that
Which isn't good
Because it's a defense that he denies
Whenever he has to go to court
And they want me arrested, they've said
For violating the gag order
I've talked to five lawyers about it
Plus, I know common sense
I'm a journalist
He only has her little district
I'm covering what she's doing
Everybody else is
But she says
I can't talk about it
Alex is conveniently not a journalist
Where he's in a deposition setting
It is strange how that happens
It is strange how that happens
Well, it feels like he's a journalist on air
So it's a character
Well, he's a journalist reporting that he's stomped the guts
Out of multiple people he's murdered
I don't think Chuck Todd would keep his job
If he was just on air, just being like
Oh, man
I love murder
I just murder people all the time
I don't like murdering people
But when you do murder somebody
It feels good
To watch them die slowly
So there's a hastily put together commercial
That Alex plays multiple times during this show
And I think it's kind of interesting
So I want to play a tiny piece of it
So I've been meaning to get into this for a while
But I keep forgetting
So now's a good time
The main driver of the sales pitch that Alex is going with here
Regarding the survival food from my Patriot supply
Is that bulk buyers are coming in
And buying up all the survival food on the market
So you need to act now to get your food
So your family doesn't starve
Otherwise it's going to be an armored redoubt
It's a pretty exploitative and gross marketing scheme
But what if I were to tell you, Jordan
That I've seen this exact same marketing campaign before
Do you mean everywhere simultaneously right now?
A while back we talked about those commercials
That Alex used to run for the weird device
Which I think was a solar powered thing
It was a cryptic commercial
That warned of an impending collapse
Where you'd need this weird device
And the pitch man was a guy named Frank Bates
And there's this guy who's like, hey, I'm a right way
I'm just like you on middle America
Right, right, right, I'm on the grift
Right, as we discussed when we went over this
Frank Bates is a fake character designed to appeal
To paranoid conservative radio listeners
He was the creation of an affiliate marketing scam artist
Named Alan Baller, who ran a company called Reboot Marketing
Under the umbrella of reboot marketing
Baller had a ton of little smaller grifts
And one of them was Food for Patriots
In 2013, Food for Patriots was selling survival food
By warning their customers that FEMA
Was trying to buy up all the food
Trying to secure 420 million meals
To feed people in their FEMA camps
FEMA was buying up all the other available food
But you could still get food from Food for Patriots
Because unlike other companies, they weren't sellouts to the man
This dude, Alan Baller, made a shit ton of money
Playing on the fears of scared conservative audiences
Of people who'd been trained to think that any day
Obama was going to put them in a FEMA camp
So in part thanks to the fake persona of Frank Bates
Who was a guy just like them who had a hot tip
Alex is doing the same thing now
And based on the fact that Alex used to air weird device commercials
I wouldn't be surprised if he also
Advertised Food for Patriots
Except I'm certain that he didn't
Because Food for Patriots wasn't a real company
It was just Alan Baller reselling food from my
Patriot supply at a markup
Alright, alright
This scam is evergreen
It's a good scam
Because Alex's show and basically the entirety of right wing media
Is predicated on amplifying manufactured fear
To distract from the very real problems that they're making worse
There will always be some sort of an issue to make profitable
Sometimes it's a black president
Your shirt is going to lock you in a FEMA camp
Sometimes it's a public health crisis
But no matter the exact character of the thing you're supposed to be afraid of
If you listen to Alex, rest assured
That it will be used to sell you bullshit
And my Patriot supply is going to be there happily taking a cut
Alan Baller was laughing his ass off at idiots
Who believed that Frank Bates was a real person
And you have to be a complete idiot to think that Alex
Isn't on some level laughing at the people who think he's sincere too
Yep, yep
That's...
Why is it so easy to get these people to believe grifters
And impossible to get them to believe grifters are grifters
Well, because I think a lot of it is really targeted
At soft spots in people's psyches
Fear is something that really overrides a lot of your rational thinking
I think that something that you viscerally and emotionally are taught
Isn't something that's very easy to rationally unteach
I think that those are such different processes
That you want it to be
You wish that it could be that
But unfortunately the world doesn't work that way
Yeah, and even worse is that if you can't counteract an emotion like fear
With rational thought
You think, well, maybe you try and create...
You try and use a different emotion to counteract it
And then you have no fucking clue how that's going to go down
Nobody knows what happens whenever you start amping people up in all directions
And I think that there's also a secondary problem that comes in that
These people like Alex have a built-in way around
One of the teachable moments that could happen is like
Yes, you emotionally are tricked into buying all their shit because of this crisis
And then when the crisis doesn't happen
You would look back and be like
Hey, wait a second, you guys fucked with me
Uh-uh, because you bought this food
Well, maybe it's not that direct
But the game is, well, we...
Look, yes, we narrowly escaped
Whatever this crisis was
And that way you guarantee that you'll have the ability to run this scam the next time
Like, yes, last time we almost...
We almost needed that food last time
This time, don't fuck it up
So it's all just super exploitative marketing
And that's sad
That makes me very sad
It is sad
And it's so clear how Alex...
When he's off air, he's got to be laughing at people
And also, let me go back to my notes on his weird ramble
He does not like it when people manipulate his feelings
No
It is totally fine for him, though, to manipulate other people's feelings
Well, that's the best way to make sure no one's manipulating yours
And only sociopaths and psychopaths would enjoy manipulating other people's feelings
So...
Right
There we go
So Alex goes to calls in this second hour of Sunday's show
And one...
Man, one of his callers has a theory about the Wuhan quarantine
That is...
Bernie's gonna kill China!
It's dumber
Let's talk to Luke in Illinois
Thanks for calling, Luke
I don't know, Alex
Listen, I just wanted to say
What if this whole coronavirus in China is just a ruse?
Just a massive amount of people movement
So they get all these people inside these buildings
And they go into the deep tunnel systems
And move all these large, huge quantities of people
Wherever it is that they want
Preparing for a possible ground invasion per se
I mean, what's to stop them from doing that?
Sir, you know, mainstream media tells us don't speculate
In a world of constant lies and disinfo
And the whole history of governments staging lies and huge hoaxes
You'd be crazy not to say that anything's possible
This caller is a real dumb dumb
Although I do agree with Alex that everyone has the right to speculate about things
Totally
I wouldn't say that this guy can't sit around
And think about how maybe this whole coronavirus situation
Is just to give millions of people into a big building
And go through some underground tunnels
So they can gain the element of surprise in a ground invasion of somewhere
I think that's exactly the sort of thing that's appropriate for a conversation
That involves a couple of dumb college students in a blunt
It's just not a serious theory
Everyone has the right to speculate
But that doesn't mean that all speculation should be respected and taken as equal
Some speculation is really stupid
And just because Alex wants to pretend that there's moral virtue
In his practice of not doing any work
That doesn't mean he needs to validate shit like that
A couple of points
If this were the plan
I'm not sure where they would be ground invading
Wuhan is pretty inland in China
So those would have to be really fucking long underground tunnels
They'd be big tunnels
Which I have to assume someone would have seen being constructed
We got the tunnel man
We can make a tunnel anywhere
The closest border to Wuhan is the East China Sea
So I assume that's not where they're gonna invade
Probably not
After that the closest country is Vietnam
But I don't think invading there makes a whole lot of sense
It's time to solve the issue once and for all
Dan we're going to kill thousands of people
Build a tunnel to Vietnam
And take the Viet Cong
I think that would be a really strange move
Geopolitically for China to ground invade
Well they have to
First they have to kick out the spider leadership
As we all know that's a huge issue then
I mean if they wanted to go
Like I'm sure that this guy's thinking like North Korea or Russia
But like there's other cities that could have done this
And if they wanted to do that
Much closer
Much less tunnel necessary
Yeah but that would set people off
It's too convenient for a tunnel
Dan if you put it in Wuhan
You know nobody's going to be looking for your tunnels
Very dumb theory
Point is Alex's own shit is so weak
That he can't afford to even push back
Against the stupidest things his callers say
For fear of accidentally training them to think critically
If he helps them recognize why their own idea is bad
It's only a matter of time before they apply that to his bullshit
And the next thing you know food bucket sales dry up
And you can't be having that
So he just allows this
What if
Xi Jinping was the only guy to have the coronavirus
So he gave it to other people because he didn't want to be lonely
Right
So Alex takes more dumb calls
And you know he gets
He's loving taking these calls though
Because like it's just like not doing anything
Callers say dumb stuff and then he's like
You know what we're right
That sounds like a good idea
Hey let's consider possibilities
So he starts thinking about like
I gotta do this call
Call in show
This show that's just all calls
And he's like this would be fucking innovative
Unfortunately
Like this is kind of like almost like
You couldn't write this comedy
What ends up happening
Because after talking about how he's going to do this innovative show
That's just calls
He gets a call
You mean a call in show
Well
In fact I've been thinking about doing new shows
And I've had a bunch of ideas
But I can tell you
I really think the answer is like two or three hours a day
Commercial free
If TV and radio stations want to pick it up
They can
Of just phone calls
People want to hear people
You mean like love that
I just want to have a phone bank where we just
Don't even screen them
We'll get a lot of really bad calls doing that
You know cussing whenever we will
But just boom
You call your own air
What do you have to say
Maybe you get five seconds
Maybe you get an hour
But you imagine just a network
A satellite of just phone calls
And then Skype calls
Yes
C-spam
No I'm not going to
You're like let's
Oh Skype
I want to do that
That's what I want to do next
I used to innovate stuff
Now I just fight the globalist all day
But thank you Luke
You do less than that
I changed the Patriots to talk shows
His own right
Every time when we say
It's not first time callers
He calls them we love him
At least what do you think is going on
Hey Alex thanks for taking my call brother
Yeah you know real quick
I think that show you were talking about
Is my show actually
We get people from all over the country
And we're all calling in
I love it
And you're right
There are some crazy
So it's a little dangerous
So Alex is like
I don't innovate anymore
This thing
That is hilarious
The next call he goes
He's like hey that's what I do
That's what I do
That's my show
Alex
Alex has got to be sitting there
Like why did I go to that
Alex you're still not innovating buddy
Oh my god
Yeah that's really sad
That's terrible
So Alex goes to chase the Patriots
Dumb
And he has a stupid point to make
I don't even remember what it was
But Alex gets another caller
And man this guy is a weirdo
This guy
I kind of dig his vibe though
Okay
Jerome in New York
You're on the air
Jerome are you in New York
Standard New York City
I'm in the Big Apple
Over here in Chinatown
It's 640 p.m. eastern standard time
But guess what
In Mainland China
It's 740 a.m. over there
Shanghai, Beijing
Shenzhou
Guangzhou
Hey it's time to get up
And let's get to work folks
Not unless you've got a lot of money
Not unless you're retired
Not unless you can work from the house
Guess what
You're going to go get on the bus
You're going to get on the subway
You're going to get on the train
You're going to get on the train
I don't know what's going to go on now man
That's not good
I do like his vibe too
He's got a good vibe
He's got a musical kind of
Speech pattern too
I think he was getting too like
And he never really gets to the point
He doesn't need a point
He transcends points
I think what he was heading towards
Is like there is people with the virus
And now you got to go get on public transit
And that's not good
I think that's what he was getting to
But if he wasn't
And he was just like
Hey it's morning in China
You got to wake up
You got to go do some stuff
You got to get on the bus
You got to get in your car
You're not going to see a lot of traffic
Let's get out there and hustle
Everybody come on
You got to work to do
Unless you're retired
Unless you're sick
Get out there and get that money
Go clock in
It's almost like it's motivational
It really is
Like if it was being played in China
People in Wuhan would be like
Alright we can do this
Alright man
I'm feeling it
This guy's got
I don't understand a word he is saying
But he's got that musical tone
It's almost like something you would hear
Like hey you know
Hey it's morning time in China
You got to
Hey unless you're retired
Or rich enough not to work
You got to get out there
Alright
Hey let's go to
Love it boys
Working for the weekend
It's 7.40 am in Wuhan
Everybody we're going to have a grand old time
Everybody get your party hats on
We're going to get right on to it baby
Here's Dolly Parton's nine to five
It's almost
It almost feels like
What a drive time DJ
Like a morning DJ would have this riff
Every Monday
That's what it feels like
Alright it's Monday
It's 6 am
We're going to play some 311
For you piss off somebody I know
Never
So I've made the point that Alex is like
The way he's selling this immune gargle
And his toothpaste that has the silver
And it is really really inappropriate
Right
And the way he's been making health claims about it
Is really bad
But now it's even branching out even further
Because now he's advising a caller
To use it for protection
Against coronavirus
I did buy your
Immune gargle and toothpaste
And all this stuff this week
Because I got to go back to Taiwan tomorrow
Yeah no if I was
If I was going to Taiwan
I'd be guzzling
The nano patented silver we've got
That's been proven to be able to kill SARS
Whoa
Just because you have it in your mouth
Because this is the same family as SARS
That's going to stop it
No but this is damn proven
To be very effective
So I mean we're getting now to the point where
It's health advice that he's giving
Based on these claims that he's making
I mean I just think like he's nestled into
A real comfort about this
Yeah I don't know how this is okay
It's not
Some press needs to take this
Because it's not like the FDA
Or the FTC is going to jump in and be like
Yeah that's a correction that I need to make also
Is that apparently
Because he's making these claims in
The speech form as opposed to
The label on his bottle
It's more an issue with the Federal Trade
Commission than it is with the FDA
I got those mixed up a little bit
In terms of what they monitor
This would have been a great piece for Gawker
But unfortunately Peter Thiel funded
Lawsuits are
Hulk Hogan stopped that
So granted
I mean he's making all these pretty
Outrageous commercials
About the gargle
He do know that Alex had his first fever
In four years
And he took the gargle and it cured him
Absolutely
He was totally cured, remember he said it cured him
Of course
Turns out it didn't
I'm kind of exhausted today
You know I was bragging
I mean I knocked on wood but
Had had a cold over four years
And then I got one this week so I'm kind of out of it today
I had a lot of family stuff going on
So I'm trying my best I can
I'm sorry to Pastor Sam and Teddy
He called me back tomorrow
Oh it looks like he was lying
Pastor Sam calls in all the time
Looks like he was lying about
The immune gargle curing him
Wow
So great
Steve Pachennick does still have the coronavirus
I don't know if you know this but a lot of the
Health claims that these guys are making
Cured himself
So Alex is like
That's his way of being like I can't take any more calls
And I don't know
This just struck me as kind of weird
Alex ends the show
By sort of vamping
Doing kind of like an Oscars style
Thank you
Sure, sure
A list of thank yous
Okay
I appreciate this great crew coming in tonight
On Sunday doing a fantastic job
I want to thank all the affiliates
That's AM FM TV
UHF VHF cable
I want to thank everybody
And just encourage folks to stay frosty
Stay frosty
Stay frosty
Jesus Christ
Oh my god
That's how he wraps up the show
Just a lot of thank yous
Hey everybody stay frosty out there
Oh god
So I was just going to do an episode about the 9th
Because I think there's plenty in there
Alex getting freaked out about 311
Yeah
Getting back into Seth Rich
Hey it's 740 AM
I could just listen to that clip
Yeah for sure
Alex's lie is about Wolf Blitzer
That lead to him confessing to multiple murders
Right
There's a lot going on there
Those are an issue
But then I started to listen to the 10th
Because I got a tip off
That Robert Barnes was back
Oh
And so I was like
I'll go ahead and listen to this episode
Well of course
Barnes' appearance isn't really that
Exciting
Did they make up?
Barnes seems to be willing to call in now
As opposed to come to studio
No can't do that
Very frequently
He calls in
It's fine
It's whatever
He's like calling for a new church committee
A hearing
Whatever
But there is something that's going on
That's worth noting on this episode
I'm not going to get into his standard
Coronavirus stuff
Because it's just
Yeah
We got it
It's background dressing on this episode
There's something more important going on
The first is
That Alex is really excited about things
That Charles Murray has to say
Which is not a good sign
That's a bad idea
But that leads him to
Basically telling his audience
That it's time to go to the woods
Oh okay
Charles Murray says
We're living in post-America
He says
Move to a small town to survive
The collapse
And yes
If we don't turn America around
And route the leftist poison ideology
That is designed
To collapse society
Then the producers
Whether you be white, black, Hispanic, old, young
But people that want to live like normal humans
And want to live in
What America was
If you don't want to live in the globalist paradigm
That's actually taking us backwards
We're going to have to move to geographic areas
And then pass laws
And have culture and systems
That do not tolerate the left
Because they don't tolerate us
They come in and take over
And then end fair elections
I wonder if that's going to end up looking at all
Like a white ethno-state theocracy
Wonder
Yeah
This isn't good man
Charles Murray is the author of the book
The Bell Curve
Which has been widely discredited
But yet lives on
As one of the foundational texts
Among the race IQ people
Who like to argue that minorities are genetically
Less intelligent than white people
But white people less intelligent
Than Ashkenazi Jews
That's another part of white supremacy
Respect your enemy
His career has largely been about
Trying to take social ills like racism
And sexism and explain them with genetics
And it has not been a good career
You don't have to feel like it's your fault at all
Charles Lane did a piece on the bell curve
In a New York review of books
And noted that it was weird
How a number of the experts he cites in the book
Are explicit racists and Nazi sympathizers
Less than they are respected experts in the field
That the book is supposed to be covering
It's a pretty well explained thing
That the bell curve is trash
And I would say that if you hear anyone
Citing it as a source
Or speaking well of Charles Murray
That's a red flag
They might have some crypto positions
They're trying to sneak into the conversation
It seems like Alex might be into
What this dude got to say
And now we've got to isolate
We've got to move our conservative right wing
Stuff into small areas and then take over
That's a bad development
I would prefer if they just went to the regular woods
And stayed there
Everybody get rid of your social security cards
Get rid of all of them
I think they've already done that
Sovereign citizens are to do that
I'm talking rank and file GOP
We've got to get them all into the woods
Well, it's more about going to rural areas
Which is what Alex is telling his audience
Explicitly that it is time to do
You need to self-select
If you have children
You have a duty to go to rural Christian areas
And to raise them outside of the big cities
And the suburbs
It's not running to go to those places
But you have to be politically involved
And fight for the rest of the nation
And against the globals while you're there
But you need to run with your children
To the most conservative Christian nationalist
Patriot area you can
Okay
I know that his audience probably isn't going to hear that
And be like, well, let's go
But if there are a couple people who take his advice
He's basically telling his audience to uproot their lives
And go some place where they can be in a cult kind of
Yes, yes
What they should do is go create utopian communes
Based around Christian conservative ideology
You know how those work out
I don't think that this is a good development
But Alex is pretty consistent about it throughout this show
He's hitting this note hard
His rhetoric has taken the Jim Jones fleeing to Guiana
Kind of approaching that step
Or at least that sort of conversation is becoming introduced
Into the proceedings, which is not good
I mean, I think it's also part of the just voting block
That idea of people in cities are more exposed to learning
And less likely to be
You call it learning
Yes, I apologize, brainwashing, apologies
But this also raises the question of like Alex, you live in Austin
What are you talking about?
He's moved to the woods
He is not, although he does make a completely not true claim
In this next clip
And as soon as I can, I am moving out of Austin
You know, my mom's from here, my family's from here
But it is, I would never move my children to San Francisco
And it's San Francisco in a lot of areas now and it's getting worse
You can afford it
And it's California collapses
And our offices are here, there's no way I can move these offices
But I certainly can move my children to a safer distance away from Sodom and Gomorrah
And then the future tells me to end a lot of the time
Because we have to put our money where our mouths are
Which you don't do
It really is time to evacuate every major blue city crap hole
So Alex is suggesting that he's going to move away from Austin and telecommute in
He's just going to do his show remotely from somewhere
Well, why do you need that multi-million dollar studio then?
Well, I mean, you don't need that anymore
I wonder if this is maybe an excuse for the coming downsizing that he's going to have to do
Because he's running out of fucking money
Even with the infusion of whatever he's making from the silver and food bucket sales
It's not enough to write the ship
I think this is bullshit
I do too
I do too, but it could be a preemptive priming of people for when
Inevitably he might be doing a podcast
What an asshole
It's the only way to do it safely
I had to get out of the blue city
I'm competing with another podcast for number one Alex Jones raised podcast
Good luck Alex
We'll see you on iTunes
No, I don't think he'll be allowed on iTunes
So Alex takes some calls and of course the subject of the coronavirus comes up
And man, that dude who was talking about the the sort of tunnel theory
He was dumb, but this guy is also dumb
We're going to find out real quick the morbidity rate
And I hope it's super low
In fact, I hope it's zero
What are you predicting it's going to be?
I'm hoping it's going to be low
But like my brother told me
I don't know where he got this from with thought of it
But he said just remember don't pop any bubble wrap
Because all that air comes from China
Another good point
Another good point
You know that's the Chinese have ruined even the satisfying feeling of popping bubble wrap
With their air that they put inside the bubble
Totally
And now it's a response
Another great idea
So first of all, why are you asking this random caller what his prediction is
What's your prediction
For the morbidity rate
Ridiculous
I don't know, but Chinese air will kill you
It's in bubble wrap
It's in popcorn
The largest bubble wrap company in the world is Sealed Air Corporation
Which was started by Alfred Sealed
Who is an engineer who lived in New Jersey
Their headquarters is currently in Charlotte, North Carolina
And I can find no evidence that their bubble wrap is primarily made in China
Also, bubble wrap is sterile
The inside of it
I don't understand
So much so that you can find a 2014 story from NPR
About how researchers at Harvard found that they could use bubble wrap as makeshift kind of test tube
Which could have amazing applications for underfunded scientists
Particularly in developing countries
They wrote up their findings in the journal Analytical Chemistry
And everything
That's really cool
Yeah, a follow-up study in the Biomedical Optics Express Journal had this in its abstract
Quote
In this paper, we demonstrate that the bubbles of bubble wrap make ideal trapping chambers for integration with low-cost optical manipulation
The interior of the bubbles is sterile and gas permeable, allowing for the bubbles to be used to store in culture cells
While the flat side of the bubble wrap is of efficient optical quality to allow for optical trapping inside the bubbles
If the interior of bubble wrap is sterile enough for scientists to use them to create lab cultures
I don't think this caller and his dumb brother need to be too worried about it
But here, again, we have Alex responding to a caller making a very stupid point by saying it's a good point
It's almost like he has a vested interest in validating and supporting really bad thinking in his audience
Jesus Christ
Yeah
Jesus
Shut those bubbles
You see the games are being played. Here's all stupid
So we know that in the past, whenever Alex has gone on these large-scale narratives, like with the Boston bombing
In particular, at least in terms of the ones that we've seen and really focused on, and the Trump stuff, too, to an extent
We've seen evidence that his traffic was way up
So, as he embarks on this coronavirus shit, we see him experiencing the same thing
Well, I'll say this, Bandai Video is really exploding, so the listeners are doing a great job getting the videos out
We're getting four or five, six million views a day now on Bandai Video
That really pisses Google off in the establishment
They thought they would silence everybody, but they had not silenced you to keep it up
Yes, Dr. Boyle said on Friday the White House should investigate this is man-made
Hours later they made that announcement
Nope, it was the day before, it was on Thursday they made that announcement
Alex is still trying to create that appearance that the Boyle interview led to Trump's science advisor coming out
I think he still thinks it's Anthony Fauci, which is funny
So, again, here's another example of Alex using the health claim about the silver in order to sell his toothpaste and immune gargle, which is not cool
We sold out of the 16 ounce nano silver that's so good to counter the whole coronavirus family
We have the three ounce left, it's selling out quickly as well as the one ounce that's selling out very, very quickly
It's great to have a gargle spray on your hands and body, you can also ingest it
It's at infowarstore.com and the entire toothpaste line, both super blue and super silver, tooth whitening, have it in it as well
So, he's just brazen
Just silver, silver, put it in your body
So Alex has barns on and we don't have too many clips of this because I didn't find it all that interesting
But there are a couple things, one is that they're talking about how Trump has beat the impeachment thing
And so he's like, hey barns, how are they gonna come at him next?
And I think Alex might have something in mind here
How do you think they're gonna try to come up with the president next if he doesn't go on the offense immediately?
Stage three is definitely coming, I think they were thinking about these firings, but I think they recognize it's too close in time
So stage three is either gonna be right in the middle of the election or right after the election
My guess is it's coming as an October surprise against President Trump again
But what would it be, I'm asking, that level
Oh, it will be of the same type, but it will be same international orientation, it will be some sort of Russian collusion component again
But they've tried the campaign aspect, they've tried the institutional aspect, so my guess this one's gonna be personal
They're gonna try to go after him or his son and try to tie it into money in some way
That's right, they're gonna try to find somebody that's done something corrupt in their giant orbit
Threaten them with prison if they don't say Trump laundered money or something, I agree
They're gonna go after mafia ties next, that's what my gut tells me
Alright, we'll be back, your call straight ahead
Oh, when have we heard Alex talking about Trump and mafia ties in the past?
Jesus
Before he supported Trump when he said, hey, with a name like Corleone you get arrested, but with a name like Trump you don't
Trump is mobbed up, he's not really rich, everyone knows it
Interesting, I think that's preemptive damage control in case there is a story that comes out that is more explicit about linking Trump to mob money
The p-tape is real
I think that that's Alex recognizing like a piece of his awareness, like you might need to protect against this
So let's predict in advance that this is going to be something that comes up
So it, much like a vaccine, inoculates the audience
That was one of my, that's one of my huge fucking annoyances that the way it was portrayed so many times in so many different media outlets of like
Trump defeats impeachment push or Trump beats the impeachment, which is fucking bullshit
Trump, what he did was everything possible to fuck up the defense that they put towards him
Trump didn't beat shit, Trump was protected by a corrupt fucking fascist organization
That's what happened
All the GOP except Mitt Romney
Don't, don't say Trump beat anything, he did the crime and then he actively worked to undermine his defense
And further afterwards undermine it more
He tweeted himself through it, that's what he did
Yeah, yeah, sure
Self-care with tweets
Just a bunch of fucking admitting to crimes on video
Assembling perhaps the best legal team this side of the OJ trial
Hey, when you can get Dersh, there's nothing else you can do
Yeah
So, Jesus Christ
They're talking a little bit about the firings, the Trump has started cleaning house
Right, right, right
And Barnes is super into that
Yeah, that's a surprise
So this purge is not a purge, it's a cleaning house
And Bob, I don't want to toot money over here on anybody's but
I know the White House listens, I know they've got a whole office guys
That's why they want Miller out of there
We come on Friday with the head of the former bio weapons, you know, treaty developer for the U.S.
The head guy, he says they've got to come out, the White House must say it looks like it's man-made
Call for investigation, five hours later they do it
He's just lying to Barnes about the timeline
Geez, Barnes I'm sure knows too
Of course, yeah
And anybody, even Stephen Miller, if he does listen, which I can't imagine
But even if he does listen, he's like, oh my God, this guy's going to be so easy to use
Yeah, exactly
He's not going to listen to that weird ramble of Alex talking about carpet cleaning and shit
And be like, man, this guy is good
He's not going to listen to Alex, be like, when you stop a guy's guts out, they die slow
And I've done it multiple times, be like
Man, I could see him listening to
The carpet cleaning, no
Right, nonsense
Yeah, that's ridiculous
So we got one last clip here and it's, Barnes is still there, but Alex goes to calls
And he takes a call from a guy who has some updates about the coronavirus
Sure
The numbers of the coronavirus, they started reporting the cases that half people have recovered
And so 3,669 people have been reported to recover from it
910 people have died
That comes out to be a 20% mortality rate
So even the official numbers now show it has a much higher death rate than they were saying
Yeah, the Chinese government says 15%, Barnes, you look at a lot of numbers
You're a big numbers cruncher, you're a fatal gambler, very successful
What do you think about the numbers?
I think the numbers are going to continue to rise
So this caller is misusing statistics
That 20% figure comes from a study that looked at patients who had to be hospitalized
Because their cases were really severe
Which includes only people who had had their condition progressed to the point of having pneumonia
Right
The number of people who have recovered from the disease is not an accurate picture of people who got a mild case
And then just had some flu symptoms and got better
It's specifically the number of people who were hospitalized for pneumonia from the coronavirus
Who recovered and left the hospital
And honestly, even if you're talking about a 20% mortality rate for people in that subset of people who got the virus
That's not wildly out of sync with the general expectations you'd have for people who have cases of pneumonia generally
Yeah
According to Healthline, quote, the 30-day mortality rate for people with pneumonia is 5% to 10% of hospitalized patients
They can be up to 30% in those admitted to intensive care
Oftentimes, these numbers can sound really horrifying when they're presented out of context like this caller is doing
It's really irresponsible of Alex and particularly Barnes to frame it like this
Yeah, good work, Barnes
They need to be able to understand the statistics that they're talking about and discuss them appropriately
Or else what they're doing is just ridiculous
And that's what you see consistently throughout all of this
Like Alex is taking information from callers and validating it
He has no idea what this caller is talking about and being like, haha, yes
You got him
He's taking a caller from a guy who's worried about bubble wrap and being like, that's a great point
He's taking a call from a guy who's like, I think that they're trying to hide a land invasion of something
And he's like, hey, we have the right to speculate about whatever we want, good on you
I can't imagine why Trump keeps winning non-college educated whites
That seems odd to me
You don't know demograph to what these callers are
Although, if you look at a podcast in places that break down Alex's listener base
Does seem like that as a heavy, heavy section of his target demo
It might be
So anyway, we get to the end of this and man, I was pretty glad that there was some non-coronavirus stuff to talk about
Yeah, that was nice
William Binney stuff, Seth Rich business
Of course
Alex lying about Wolf Blitzer and confessing to murder is certainly a high point
Can't say no to a good gut stomping
I think that that, I mean, that's pretty bad
Oh, I've forgotten how to context drop
Okay, here you go
Well, I piss all over your God
I piss all over the state
Ooh
So anyway, Alex isn't a pissing
Yeah, it's a family show though
Absolutely
So yeah, I don't know, that's the show
Closing strong dude
I don't have any real summation
I piss all over his show
I have a summation
It is that Alex is a psychopath and he is manipulating people's emotions
Let's see what else is counterpoint
He said he wasn't
Even still, he said that cleaning carpets was disgusting
So I assume that he is against Trump cleaning house, I imagine
Wait, wait, wait, wait
He has PTSD, he respects paramedics who Trump in his budget is probably cutting
All of this, everything in his ramble is the opposite of what is true, Dan
That must mean he enjoyed cleaning carpets
I might
Whoa
Oh, this could be crazy
I don't know
It does add one more to our long list of chemicals that Alex has had in his face
Oh, that's true
When he was a child
He might have hotboxed some clean chemicals
Who knows
Yeah
Anyway, we'll be back, but until then, we have a website
We do, it's KnowledgeFight.com
Yep, we're also on Twitter
We are on Twitter, it's at knowledge underscore fight and at go to bed Jordan
Yep, we're also on Facebook
Indeed we are, if you'd like to listen to the show, please go to iTunes, share it with your friends
Download it on other podcast apps too
Why not, I don't know, donate to the show
Have fun
Yeah
We'll be back, but until then, I'm Nio, I'm Leo, I'm DZX Clark
I am the last living Vanderbilt
Andy and Kansas, you're on the air, thanks for holding
So Alex, I'm a first-name caller, I'm a huge fan, I love your work
I love you
