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 me. Hello, Alex and Mr. Sincollet. I'm a huge fan. I love your work. Knowledge fight. Knowledge fight.com. I love you. Hey, everybody. Welcome back to Knowledge Fight. I'm Dan. I'm Jordan. We're couple dudes. I can sit around. We're just with the Altar of Celine and talk a little bit about Alex Jones. Oh, indeed we are, Dan. Jordan. Dan. Jordan. Quick question. Sure. What's your bright spot today? My bright spot today, far
Starting point is 00:01:12 and away, without a doubt, is a little package that we got from, I don't know, she's gonna have to come up with her own title policy, wonk, whatever. Yeah. Katie sent a handmade board game incredible full of inside jokes. Absolutely incredible. Sort of a take on Monopoly. Yeah, more or less. But with its own rules, we've had we haven't had a chance to play it yet. I'm excited beyond all reason to play it. But there's just instead of the properties, there are people. Yeah. Yeah. So you have like Leo Zagami. You have multiple versions of Alex. You have a drunk Alex. Yeah. Cannibal Alex. Yeah. There's an incorporation of Project Camelot stuff into it. So good. I don't think I'm doing a good job of describing it because
Starting point is 00:01:59 I'm just super excited. It's very funny. It is a well done system of jokes. It's kind of incredible. You know, for two assholes like us with with comedy brains, you know, we can be shitting on people. It's not hard. No. That is very funny. Legitimately good. I have not. Obviously, I haven't like a chance to or why would I just sit and read over all of the cards? Yeah, I would like to be surprised when we play it. But the ones that I did read over, they do have a great sense of humor. Just clever and witty. Oh, yeah. Thank you so much, Katie. It was incredible. Just a real a bright spot in a spoiler alert the rest of this episode ain't going to be bright. It's not that kind of day. No. So thank you
Starting point is 00:02:47 for for bringing that into our lives. Thank you so much. How about you? My bright spot is my partner teacher. She's making these shirts. She's an art teacher. She's got to make a shirt printmaker. And she's making these two shirts for other teachers in the school because I don't know if you know this teachers aren't treated well. Sure. So there's a quote from this one person. They were all getting together all the teachers talking about how terrible things are. And this one teacher was what was like, man, this thing came into my room. It was not a mouse. It was a whole rat. Right. And so she made a t shirt out of that. She made a big nice drawing. It's classroom. It's a whole rat. People have
Starting point is 00:03:27 started getting them and she made one for me and it's very, very good. Oh, that's great. This is going to be the next piece of meme wear. I hope so. If you're if you're a GPS teacher, look around for it's a whole rat. You'll find it. It's a whole rat is going to go up there with Alex's new shirt with the president's right. Right. Right. There's that one. There's where's the beef. We don't have time to get into this, but I encourage anyone will tweet a picture of it. Alex has a new shirt that he's selling with his faces of presidents and I've been obsessed with it for the better part of the week. I'm so confused by it. You could dig in there for a while. You showed me like six problems
Starting point is 00:04:05 within two seconds and I'm still digging in. It's very confusing. We don't have time to get into it, but it'll be on our Twitter. It will. So Jordan, the reason we don't have time to get into it today is that, you know, there's there's major world events afoot. And well, quite frankly, I had planned to do an episode at the end of this week of tracking Alex's behavior over the course of the week. Right. And then we're recording this on Thursday and last night, Russia and Putin invaded Ukraine. Yeah. Yeah. And I kind of had to redo everything. Yeah. Yeah. That'll change things. And so what we're going to be doing is we're going to have a focus on today's episode, the 24th of February, 2022. And then we're also
Starting point is 00:04:49 going to have a little bit of a prelude, a little bit of a, what would it be? Preview prolog prolog. There we go. And so we'll, we'll get down to business on this. Looking at February 21st, to February 24th. But before we do that, let's take a little moment, Jordan, say hello to some new walks. That's a great idea. So first Brett Stevens, biggest fan. Thank you so much. You're now policy walk. I'm a policy walk. Thank you very much. Next. Today we're going over the episode from February 21st to 24th, 2022. I'm Dan. This is 2022. Thank you so much. You're now policy walk. I'm a policy walk. It's 2022 also. Yes, with a comma T O O. Yes. Yeah. Next gay frog. Enthusiast. Phillip Pam. Thank you so much. You're now policy walk. I'm a policy
Starting point is 00:05:33 walk. Thank you very much. Thank you. Next. Jordan, the heretic of Dune called Shahi Halued Shaitan. Thank you so much. You are now policy walk. I'm a policy walk. Thank you very much for calling me the devil. That person assured me that you would get it. Oh, I do. Oh, indeed I do. And we got a policy walk up in the mix. So thank you so much. The all caps. Indeed. The globalist titty baby. Thank you so much. You are now a technocrat. I'm a policy walk. I have risen above my enemies. I might quit tomorrow, actually. I'm just gonna take a little break. You know, a little break for me. And then we're going to come back. And I'm going to start the show over. But I'm the devil. I got to be taken out there. Fuck you. Fuck you. I got plenty of words
Starting point is 00:06:24 for you. But at the end of the day, fuck you in your new world order and fuck the horse you wrote in on and all your shit. Maybe today should be my last broadcast. Maybe I'll just be gone a month, maybe five years. Maybe I'll walk out of here tomorrow. And you never see me again. That's really what I want to do. I never want to come back here again. I apologize to the crew and the listeners yesterday that I was legitimately having breakdowns on air. I'll be better tomorrow. He has not been better this week. Not this week. No, that's not a surprise. It's not a good week. It's a bad week for everybody. It's a bad week for the world. Yeah, it's a bad week, particularly for the people in Ukraine. Yeah, and our thoughts are with them, of course. And I am very confused by
Starting point is 00:07:14 Alex's behavior and his narratives over the course of this week. It does not make sense. I told you this before we started recording. I don't know exactly what his point is about almost anything. But I do know little pieces of it as we go along and we can track it and hopefully make sense of it by the time we finish up. So here is the first clip. We're going to start on the 21st. So this is Monday's show. The standoff is going, this is the day that eventually Putin will give his speech where he decides to recognize the the breakaway states of Donetsk and Luhansk. Right. And so that has not happened yet. This is just the beginning of the show. Here's where Alex is at. Russia has already been in an eight year proxy war with the globalist. And
Starting point is 00:08:04 the West began to move heavy weapons in in the last few years. They accelerated under Biden. And so Putin has put a bunch of troops on the border saying you need to not have them in or NATO need to stop heavy weapons shipments. And we need to have a major armistice demilitarization ceasefire meeting. Under their Dnesk, if I pronounce that right, compact of several years ago. So we can just go ahead and say right off the bat that at this point Alex is taking literally everything Putin says as gospel. And he's backing Russia 100%. It's good to get that out of the way. So we don't have to keep coming back to it as we as we go through. He's a Putin stand on Monday, for sure. Yeah. One of the things I found most interesting
Starting point is 00:08:49 about that clip though is the idea that a country could be in a proxy war against the globalists. That seems like an absurd concept, but it's something that Alex just casually tosses around. Like it's a perfectly normal idea and that it's stupid to think anything else could possibly be going on. Alex doesn't even have a solid consistent group of people who actually make up the globalists. So I have no faith that he could explain this proxy war. If you were forced to, like if I had a follow up question for him, I don't think it would make sense. I mean, you know, the globalists have been using other people who are also globalists, sure, to fight against Russia. Well, that's direct then, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:09:25 So Russia though has been using Russian. Oh, no. Yes, it does seem like proxy doesn't make sense there. It's, it's, it's a strange idea. So something that was really funny in that clip though is the part where Alex says that the West has been aggressing on Russia for a few years now, then realizes that would mean that it started under Trump. So he has to immediately qualify that, that it ramped up under Biden. Yeah, it was the most under Biden. His instincts to cover his ass when it comes to Trump stuff are really strong, especially considering like he's already said, like that guy loves vaccines. Insane, insane, just insane back and forth on him. Just a, just a knee jerk, like, oh, I don't know if people are going to get mad at me for criticizing him
Starting point is 00:10:05 about this. Yeah. So also there's no such thing as the Dnesk compact. That's an agreement that Alex is just making up. I think that he's trying to remember the name of the Minsk agreement. Yeah. But he came up with the wrong mental file. Right. The Minsk agreements are two formal attempts to stop the fighting that's gone on in the Donbass region, which have both been unsuccessful. The first was the Minsk protocol in 2014, followed by Minsk two in 2015. The goal of these agreements was to put in place a ceasefire between the Ukrainian military and the Russian backed separatist groups in Dnesk and Luhansk, who have been, uh, they've decided that they're their own breakaway states and not a part of Ukraine. Right. The dynamics of this agreement are super complicated
Starting point is 00:10:44 because you have to look at it from like even just have to look at the status of the parties from each other's viewpoints. And when you do, you kind of get a sense of how this was probably doomed to failure. Yeah. According to most of the world, this was essentially an agreement between Ukraine and Russia, since the separatist groups in Donbass wouldn't be able to continue any of their actions without Russian backing. It's not really necessary to say that separatists in Dnesk need to withdraw heavy, heavy weapons. Since without Russia, they wouldn't have heavy, heavy weapons. Right. Right. But from Russia's standpoint, this is a negotiation between Ukraine and the separatists in Dnesk and Luhansk. They've routinely taken the position that they're just observers
Starting point is 00:11:21 and that they're there to mediate the process and they don't exist as a party of the agreement. Putin sees himself as unbound from the agreement itself, uh, at least partially for this reason. At the same time, Ukraine specifically sees this as a negotiation between themselves and Russia. And the Ukrainian president Zelensky has even said that he has quote, no intention of talking to terrorists. Uh, and it is just impossible for me in my position. His perspective on the agreement is similar to how much of the world sees it as a conversation between Ukraine and the Russian government who are facilitating the actions of the separatist groups in Donbass, who the Ukrainian government see essentially as an insurgency. Right. Right. Right. So you can see from the
Starting point is 00:12:00 perspectives of all of them that negotiating table will be very difficult to navigate, but based on perceptions and how they see each other linking up. No. And this is, this is where we get so much of that like space-based international con or intergalactic contract law being so important is with these types of agreements, you know, you have Putin being able to be like, nah, nah, nah, as it's them, man. It's not, what are you talking about? It's not beat me on a technicality. I'm not in there. You can't, you don't have my signature there in writing. Do you? He's like alfucking capone. So there was an inherent lack of agreement in this agreement and it collapsed almost immediately with the accusations from both sides at the other side had broken the ceasefire.
Starting point is 00:12:42 So I don't know what the Dinesk compact is. Alex doesn't know anything about the Minsk agreements, but is making a passing reference to them to justify Russia's actions now because he's invested in defending everything Putin does Monday. Alex has built him up as the only major geopolitical force that stands against his imaginary enemies. So whenever it looks like the rubber is going to meet the road, Alex is going to be on team Putin and he'll use whatever Flemzy Graspy has on history or past agreements to convince his audience that they should be too. Right. And that's kind of fucked up. Right, right, right. He's pushing the, he's pushing the, come on, you gotta, it's go for Iraq. Just take it. You know, it's yours. So talk to me about
Starting point is 00:13:20 what you think the globalist hierarchy is right now. We know the devil's up top. Right. The devil is definitely up top. Yep. Who's his second in command? Second in command has got to be Klaus Schwab at this point. You would think that. Yeah. And then since we're dealing with Putin, I'm going to go with Soros is up there. He's got to be way up there. You would think that too. And then I mean, naturally the trilateral other power is Brian Stelter. So I think it's those three. Okay. There's a new flow chart in town. Okay. Here's the headline. The world is now in World War four. And it's a global corporate war against humanity designed to have a controlled implosion of society to then carry out their in game or their destination, their goal,
Starting point is 00:14:05 80 to 90% depopulation of the earth. Their official documents say 80 to 90% going back to the 60s. And these are the groups that created the Bilderberg group, the CFR, the trilateral commission. It's all the same group. They're the capture elite capture groups, the corporate capture groups that you know of as the Davos group. The Davos group is the main PR mouth of this use a Lord of the Rings analogy. Don't they're about to have the big battle there on the edge of Mordor. And the forces, the good guys are there and the big black gate opens and out marches a undead general. And they say, are you sore on? He says, no, I am the mouth of Soron. And that's what Klaus Schwab is, is the mouth of Soron. All right. Okay. I got one of him is
Starting point is 00:14:59 one of the top ring rights. Larry Fink. What? And then above that, of course, is the devil. Okay. Okay. Who's Larry Fink? Larry Fink is the head of Black Rock. Oh, he's also on the board of like the World Economic Forum. The investment group Black Rock, the one that owns just like a bunch of shit. Yeah. Okay. Cool. Yep. All right. I don't know when he got inserted. This was fast. He went from not on my radar to second in command real quick. That's a bummer. Wow. Yeah, it's wild. I didn't get away with it for so long. I don't know. You know, there was that there's that wrestling storyline where Vince McMahon was the higher power that was running Undertaker. Right. Right. The ministry and all this and then there's that big moment of
Starting point is 00:15:50 it was me Austin all along. It was me. Yeah. He pulled up his hood. That's how I imagine Larry Fink revealed himself to Alex. All right. It's me. I was above Klaus Schwab. That makes sense. That makes sense. Okay. I'm not going to say that Alex has never mentioned Larry Fink because I haven't listened to literally every episode. Sure. Sure. But as someone who takes in a lot of Alex's content, this is not one of the villains that I for him to be second in command. So really important. Yeah. Yeah. He might have gotten bumped up from the middle management or Council of 12. Sure. Sure. No, I'm sure he's a billionaire and evil and shit right under the devil. Wow. Man. Impressive. Yeah. Good for him. Yeah. So Alex does some some stupid killing of
Starting point is 00:16:30 time here and this is something that I always find very interesting and I don't think I'll never or I don't think I'll ever ignore when it comes up. Okay. But now we're going into World War four that is economic, that is psychological, that is cyber, that is radiological, that is electromagnetic radiological chemical that is covert, silent, silent weapons, silent weapons for quiet wars, silent weapons for quiet wars. Just look these terms up. And it's what the globalist are obsessed with and they brag how you're done animals and they brag how they're going to annihilate you and how they're going to slowly take all your resources but make you love it while they brainwash you using Pavlovian behavioral psychology. These are the worst
Starting point is 00:17:21 villains the earth has ever seen. Silent weapons for quiet wars as we've mentioned before is a fake document. It was a hoax document that got published in Behold a Pale Horse. Yep. Bill Cooper wrote we went over this in great detail on episode 381 of the podcast. So if anyone wants to know why it's really pathetic that Alex is referencing this as a real thing, check that episode out. Go on back true believers. It's fun to say though. It is. Silent weapons for quiet wars is a great name. It's a great name. It really is a great title. That's probably, that's one of the problems. These hoax documents have great names. Of course. And then these UN things like Agenda 21. So evil as you, what are you guys fucking doing? Yeah. They have no, no sense of creativity. Then again,
Starting point is 00:18:04 silent weapons for quiet wars if it was actually something the government had produced. The most terrifying document that you should never name. You don't actually name it like that. But you know, yeah, I guess the fact that you know it's bullshit kind of makes you able to take it into like the realm of fiction. Yeah. That makes the name a little better. It does. It does get into like, you know, you like the judge in the blood meridian, but if the judge were actually alive, you'd be like, I got to get away from the devil. He's the devil. Yeah. Yeah. You may be right. So Alex has seen a meme and I come to realize, I know I've probably brought this up before, a lot of Alex's reporting is just based on memes he's seen. Yeah. 100%. It's really shocking. And
Starting point is 00:18:46 particularly when we're sitting here talking about, you know, the, the period where tensions are really high discussion of a potential invasion are going on when you're reporting stuff that has to do with Ukraine based on a meme. That's not good. It's not great. It's not good. You should do better. You should do a lot better footage out of Ukraine from where they were ordering people not to be allowed to protest or be in the streets for COVID. And the police there just dropped their shields and walked off. And that's really the answer. That's why the globalist want robots in control and technocracy in control because then humans can be cut out of the loop. And there's not that human free will of whether the police are told attack folks that are out here peacefully
Starting point is 00:19:34 demonstrating. No, we'll just drop our shields and leave. That's the real courage. You know, they'd all been talking about it before they did it. And then the one guy decides to do it. And they orderly just go drop their shields in a pile for the city to come pick up. They say, you know what? No, we're not going to beat people over there for being out here peacefully. We're not going to throw in futures. We're not idiots. And that's what we should see. So this is a great example of the information that Alex disseminates and why it can't be trusted even when he shows a video because he does. He shows the video of this. He's playing this video and it's a police dropping their shields into a pile just as he's describing. But the context of the situation is completely
Starting point is 00:20:14 different than what he's saying. He either saw this posted as a meme somewhere with a false story attached to it, or he saw the video and decided to make up his own plot about what he wanted to imagine this was. This was not from COVID times. It's actually a video from 2014. It was filmed in Sloviansk, a city in East Ukraine. There had been skirmishes in the city between Ukrainian government forces and the pro-Russian separatists. And at the point of the video being shot, the police had detained some of the separatists. The video depicts a crowd of people threatening the police, the police realizing they're outnumbered and them dropping their shields and leaving. Right. It's right. That's the situation that's going on. Right, right,
Starting point is 00:20:52 right. Not so much. We're going to join the freedom fighters. It's much like the tow truck drivers. It's like, ah, fuck this. Bye. So the thing I find really interesting is how much of the story Alex is telling has to do with his own imagination and how he's come up with detailed motives for the people in the video. He's sure that they talked about how they were going to do this in advance to make a statement about COVID measures. It's all just the product of him seeing a video and then deciding how he wants to make up a story about it to sell the audience. That's his deep research, his research in his mind, imagining nonsense. Yeah. And he's written an entire like high school basketball movie where they're all in the locker room getting together
Starting point is 00:21:34 and there's some guy giving a big speech about how I'm going to stand up to these bullies. No vaccines can't lose, you know, like that kind of shit. Yeah. Yeah. It's weird. It's, it's, there's a real, um, sort of urge for the dramatic. Yeah. Yeah. Everything has to be a movie, but at the same time that scene is itself quite dramatic. That video is quite dramatic. Just not in the way Alex wants it to be. Yeah. Well, I mean, print the legend. That's true. That's, that's what they say. That is, or yell the legend screaming as much as possible. Yeah. Shut the fuck up. You know why? Because Putin's about to speak. Oh God. We'll see what he's going to announce. Probably that there have been
Starting point is 00:22:20 Western attacks on Russian held areas in Ukraine that he is going to take those sectors. Or perhaps it's that he's going to give them an ultimatum for NATO to say that they're not going to take Ukraine and they will stop shipping heavy weapons into their border sectors, or that he's going to invade. Clearly, this has all been done to put pressure on expansionist NATO to get them to back down and recognize Russia's legitimate security concerns. But the globalists hate God, so they love war. They hate God, so they hate families. And they hate Russia because Russia is now having a multi-child policy, just like China. So you can kind of get the sense that we're heading into this Putin speech with Alex being like,
Starting point is 00:23:12 this is all going to be great. This is top level shit. The West is the aggressors for sure. And he's giving the prediction right out of the gate that he's going to say that, you know, in the East Ukraine, he's going to either annex these places or make an ultimatum, but he's already preparing his audience to accept that as like this is exactly what should happen, which is strange. I mean, it's not strange. It would be if it wasn't him. It would be strange. I mean, it is strange in the context of how the world should work or is supposed to in any sense. But man, it's just why is everybody doing this? No, I don't think everybody is. I mean, I mean, on the far right, on the far right, I just don't understand it.
Starting point is 00:24:02 It is. It is bizarre. What is it? What are you guys thinking? Yeah, I don't know. I think I really don't know. I think, you know, obviously one piece of it is probably just an obsession of a strong man leader. I think that's a big part of it. And being able to project all of your, let's say, culture war obsessions onto Putin, the way that, you know, so much of the right wing and like Tucker and Alex is so defined by opposition that is meaningless. Opposition to SJWs or like trying to own the Libs and what have you. And I think that they project a bit of that onto Putin. And so, you know, in the same way that Alex views him as an ally against his imaginary enemies, totally. I think a lot of people on
Starting point is 00:24:47 the right do. And I think that that is a piece of it. Right. There's got to be more somewhere, but I don't know what it is exactly. I mean, ultimately, the only thing that I can really put my head around is just these are people with nonstop violent fantasies. I think that's probably a piece of it too. You know, and like if they unexamined violent fantasies. Yeah. And every part of them is like, if I was running a country, blah, blah, blah. This is how we'll go. Bum, bum, bum. I would just do it like no one would fuck with me. No one would ever say anything. And then I'd get NATO off my borders. Yeah. Yeah. It's just their fantasies. It does seem like that. Yeah. And then so in order to lead up to this speech that Putin's giving, I noticed that
Starting point is 00:25:31 Alex is doing just a lot of water carrying for the Russian government. And you've got all of the western unconfirmed reports that the LGBT are going to be put in camps. When it's the left building, they're quarantine camps around the world. When it's the left that have already put our children in their pedophile camps. No evidence of this. Absolute crap. They're not arresting homosexuals in Russia. But anytime a CIA operative gets arrested, then we hear, oh, they're gay. Again, Tim Cook can run death camps. Why? He's gay. I thought it was because he had a pink sweater, purple sweater. Someone should tell Alex that it's illegal to be gay in Russia.
Starting point is 00:26:18 I was going to say he does realize that you will be arrested on account of it being illegal. Well, maybe you're not going, everybody's going to get arrested. But in the past years, there have been widely reported purges and arrests to people who were either gay or suspected. Yeah. In 2013, the government instituted a bill that they said was aimed at stopping, quote, gay propaganda, which has been used to target activists and repressive voices who would speak up for the community. The first same sex marriage recognized in Russia between two men married in Denmark was quickly unrecognized. And then the men fled the country for fear for their lives. Yeah, they're over 100 gay men were rounded up and tortured in Chechnya in 2017, which the Russian
Starting point is 00:26:57 government doesn't even deem worth investigating. What Alex is saying is bullshit, and he knows it, but he also knows that he can't allow the picture he paints of Putin to be one of someone who's harshly repressing people based on sexual identity or orientation. Right. Thus, Alex decides to just pretend that every instance of targeting the LGBTQ activist is secretly them detaining a CIA agent. I mean, it's weird. It's just like you know it's wrong. You know it's wrong. Yeah. You can't not know. You can't not know it's wrong if you're all so lying about it, because even this is like you're already talking to the crowd. You're already tossing out white nationalist slogans. Clearly your audience is fully on board with all your
Starting point is 00:27:38 transphobia. They would be gone by now if they weren't. Exactly. So it's like, just say we like Putin because he arrests and disappears LGBTQ members. And that's one reason we like him. But I think that Alex, I mean, as flimsy a grasp as he has over history, though he fancies himself a scholar. Right. I think even he knows that that was a little bit of the early Nazi purges. Yeah. Yeah. I think he knows better than to celebrate the idea. Right. And it's like, but that's what you're doing. That's that's amazing. But also probably part of the reason that Alex has to play the game that he is doing there is because if he was going to be honest about the gay propaganda law that Russia has passed, he would need to explain to his audience how
Starting point is 00:28:23 it's okay for the state to curtail free speech to this drastic of an extent and why there isn't a real serious problem like for a free speech warrior like himself or why protests are consistently cracked down on in Russia. Like all the things that he thinks are essential elements of quote, unquote, Western culture are not carried out and respected by Putin. Yeah. And he can't, he can't accept that or like sell that to the audience. So you deny it. Well, I mean, just just create a new story. How can you, how can you literally be one of these people and just watch Putin literally like the moment an anti war press protester walks out on the street in Moscow, they're fucking arrested and think to yourself, well, if that's the type of leader that I want
Starting point is 00:29:13 because I remember when we were protesting the war in Iraq, especially Alex, whenever he was strongly against it, I'm sure he would have been stoked to have a president of fucking arrest him immediately. Well, like it's just that kind of fucked up brain space. Sure. Sure. I think that there is an ability among some people to sort of abstractly imagine themselves in various positions within society. Sure. I think you gain a lot of empathy for people who are living in poverty by being able to imagine yourself in poverty. You've lived in it and experienced it and you can call back some of those memories. I think that Alex sees himself as the person who's doing the attacking of protesters and shutting it down. He does not abstractly imagine himself as
Starting point is 00:30:03 being someone who would be protesting the Russian government. Never occurs to him. He sees himself as somebody who's like, well, obviously these people protesting are wrong. Right. So they should be right. Right. That's kind of how I think his brain works. It's only free speech if you're right. Correct. And he's never right. No. So Putin starts his speech and I noticed a very bizarre dynamic. Well, perfect timing. As we speak, Vladimir Putin has just taken the podium and here on the Alex Jones show, we're going to go to this announcement by the Russian leader about the ongoing conflict in Eastern Europe in the proxy war that is Ukraine. Here it is. Of course, my address is also aimed at our fellow citizens in Ukraine. We'll have to have a
Starting point is 00:30:52 substantive and detailed conversation because the matter is very serious. It was surreal to listen to this on info wars because the Putin speech itself was pretty fucked up, but on a much more local level, it was insane how Alex just plays the whole thing and doesn't interrupt except for commercial breaks. What? His actions really indicate a very real reverence and respect that Alex feels towards Putin. And it was probably the longest I've seen him play a video without jumping in. It went on over multiple segments. Even with Trump speeches, he'd often cut in to double down or say something to do damage control. But with this, he was just airing a straight feed from Russian TV to info wars. And it was, it was very strange. Holy shit.
Starting point is 00:31:33 And it makes it difficult because now like it's just Putin's speech. Yeah. So there isn't like a lot to even go over. He's not really saying all that much. No, it's just a lunatic. So in one of the breaks, when he's, you know, taking a break from Putin's speech, here's his take on it. I've studied history. I've never heard a modern world leader be this honest. I mean, he's like, I mean, we came in hurt the Ukrainians in a way to begin with. And Lenin gave it all away to begin with. It's always been part of us. And yeah, then we came in and didn't mean things to him. And yeah, I mean, what do you want it to do? And he's going to probably go on and say, you want to be part of Europe?
Starting point is 00:32:10 Let me part of the new world order. You want your sons taught other balls cut off because that's really what this comes down to. Because the West is going to put your kids with adults and pedophiles. I mean, the West is run by pedophiles now. And I guarantee he'll probably bring up something like that because he wants to go back to Russia being Russia and things that were part of Russia be part of Russia. He doesn't want the other parts that weren't part of Russia. And my issue is render under Caesar, the things that are Caesars. What we are not over there in Russia, they are not attacking us. Wow. So that's an interesting take. I mean, I didn't know Alex was hero worshiping Neville Chamberlain these days.
Starting point is 00:32:53 So Alex believes incorrectly, even if you just were to watch that speech or read the transcript of it, he believes that what Putin is saying is, Hey, Ukraine, live and let live. Yeah. Yeah. If you want to go with the West, go with the West. Like he's like a magnanimous boyfriend getting broken up with. I mean, it's, it's very strange that the take is wrong. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's, I mean, you could say in a way it was a modern leader being very honest in a sense that they were revealing that they're a psychopathic supervillain ready to invade a country because they want territory. And it was honest in as much as, especially with the gift of hindsight that we have from a few days later. Yeah. And I think you could hear a lot of people echoing this even
Starting point is 00:33:44 on Monday that this was an excuse. Oh, yeah. It was a listing of excuses and rationales for why he would invade. Yeah. No, I mean, you listen to that. That's honest in a sense. Right. I mean, you listen, I listened to the speech and I was like, Oh, he's going to invade. Like that's the only conclusion you can draw from such a fucking crazy speech. It feels that way. But at the same time, Alex is still saying this, this notion of like what he's going to do is probably, you know, with the Don Boss, those areas, he's going to take those because that is part of Russia. You know, he's going to right the wrongs of Lenin. Yeah. Yeah. Which is a great way to frame it if you're a lunatic anti-communist pretending that that makes sense. Very strange. Yeah. So yeah,
Starting point is 00:34:30 Alex does continue that prediction that the Donetsk and Luhansk are going to, Russia's going to take them. I don't know what Putin's going to say. I predict it before this even happened. He would say they're going to annex, you know, Eastern Ukraine fully. And then if there's any attacks on it, they'll then attack Ukraine. So it's, this is just the beginning of a larger war in my view. That's a serious situation. And it's the consequences of Soros and the New World Order wanting to start a war with Russia. It's very, very simple. So yeah, it's the West's fault. Soros is instigating. He's meddling around. Sure. On behalf of his boss, Klaus Schwab, who works for Larry Fink, who works for the devil, who works for the devil, right? Got to keep
Starting point is 00:35:13 that org chart. I mean, you know, Black Rock, the devil, the devil would sit on a Black Rock. The Black Rock was the name of the ship in Lost that has the dynamite in it. I did not know that blows himself up. Spoiler alert for episode in season one of Lost. You had time. You had time to get. Yeah. Yeah. You're going to see. You had time. Yeah. So this is, this is where Alex is at. And we've heard him say what he says in this next clip before, but it's always funny just to, to remember that Alex may actually think this. It's a shame. Folks, I've been around 48 years and I've been on air 28 years. And I've seen a lot of crazy stuff.
Starting point is 00:35:58 And I knew that Putin started meeting with Shultz and eats in the last decade of his life. And I know people that reportedly know Putin and say, no, he's a anti-New World Order infill wars listener. And I'm not naive. I don't go, oh, Putin must be great. But now you see it more and more. Vladimir Putin repudiating communism, saying it's horrible. He may become out and say, Western powers put linen in because I know Putin knows that now and that Russia has gotten free from this to a certain extent and that we need to get free of this globalism as well. These parasites. And then we can have real peace. Yeah. Yeah. He's a infowars listener. Putin, Putin loves info wars. And he's just one of those info wars guys. I can't imagine like,
Starting point is 00:36:39 this is my job to like, listen to this show. Right. Right. You know, like listening to this. And I even can't, I barely can handle listening to this shit. I can't imagine if you're the head of a country making the time to like, Oh, I got to check in and see what this drunk Texan is angry about today. What day, what day, what is his day look like that he can fit in some info wars? Right. Right. You know, and if he's listening live, it would be like the middle of the night in Russia. Yeah. What is it? Yeah. I mean, I, maybe he doesn't sleep very much, but it's, it's not like after he eats dinner at an absurdly long table with whomever, you know, he goes down and he's like, now I'm in my man cave with a nice comfy chair ready to listen to Alex fucking Jones.
Starting point is 00:37:23 Yeah. Yeah. Having a listening group, maybe with a Lord. Sure. Nigel Farage. Yeah. I got one of those like a lost viewing party, if you will. Yeah. Think of other European weirdos that might show up. Um, so yeah, Alex is in man. He loves this. He loves this speech. Can't get enough. All right. And you know, I don't see how you see any fault in Putin. What he's saying. I mean, it's all historically true. Stalin's horrible. I mean, if you can't, we're sorry what we did to you. Blah, blah, blah. What do you want to, I mean, you, you know, it's coming. You want to be under George Soros or you want to be your own country? We don't want you. We want to do business with you. Just, just please, please don't go to war with us. I mean,
Starting point is 00:38:06 and to hear somebody actually tell the truth from that level is powerful because the truth is powerful and the truth lives in info wars. Hell yeah. Right. Yeah. We don't want it. We don't want trouble. We don't want beef. We just want to do business with you. Russia. So, so from, he listened to Putin's speech. Yeah. That, that, that speech. And didn't interrupt. Didn't interrupt. It was played an entirety on his show. We know he listened to it because he probably had a snack during it at least. Yeah. So it was probably difficult to hear for about 10 minutes because he's chomping so much. Probably. Yeah. Maybe, maybe, uh, might have had soft food. Well, it was possible. Could
Starting point is 00:38:48 have had a burrito. Yeah. He loves chimichangas. He loves a good chimichanga. Yeah. That's true. I think, I think that it's really, it was really difficult for me to listen to this because it was really jarring the dissonance between Alex's interpretations of things and the things I was hearing. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's, that's, that fucks with my head right now. I can't imagine being alone. You know, I think, I think Alex might just have had his mind blown by the notion that like, you know, Putin doesn't like communism. I guess. And he has distaste for Lenin and Stalin. Wow. I mean, for, for one of them, who is also a complete badass, apparently. Total stout, according to Alex. I mean, I, I just, I just, cool. The thing too is if you listen to the actual
Starting point is 00:39:33 speech, like he explains really what his problem is. Yeah. So this, this clip was really where I, I think I figured out one of the most like central problems with Alex's interpretation. Putin is doing it hard on Ukraine with the rhetoric referring to Ukraine's process of decommunization. You want to decommunize? Well, we are fine with that, but let's not stop that way. We're ready to show you what real decommunization is like for Ukraine. And then it goes on to say, I am decommunizing Russia. But the hard line, right wingers here, so brainwashed that Russia was our enemy for their lifetimes. Say, oh, it's a secret plot. They're still in bed with them. No,
Starting point is 00:40:23 the Larry Finks and Black Rocks and globalist organizations hate Russia's guts because Russia is not under their control. Larry Finks getting a lot of play. Man. So here, here is the actual clip that from the speech that Alex is talking about. And as a result of Bolshevik's policy, the Soviet Ukraine was created. And we have every reason to say now that it's Ukraine created by Vladimir Lenin. He's, it's creator and architect. And it's fully confirmed by the documents from the archives. Also including the decrease, Lenin's decrease regarding Donbass that was added to Ukraine. And now grateful descendants demolishing all the statues, all the monuments to Lenin. They call it decommunization. You want decommunization? Well, we are quite happy with that. But don't
Starting point is 00:41:23 stop halfway. We are ready to show you what would mean actual decommunization for Ukraine. What Putin was saying was a threat. Yeah, he was not saying that he was going to get rid of communism, which is the way Alex is reporting that comment. What he was saying is that the people of Ukraine are moving past their Soviet past and smashing statues of Lenin. But Putin says, if you want to do that, go all the way and revert your borders back to what they were before 1922, when Ukraine joined the Soviet Union, right? Right. This is actually a very scary and brazen comment that has implications for all the former Soviet member states. There's an underlying premise here that in order to actually leave the Soviet Union, you need to go out exactly as you
Starting point is 00:42:03 came in. And if your borders are different than when they were previously, he has the right to take that land because it's actually still rushes to him. It should be pretty obvious why this mentality could be a problem for a whole host of states in the region. And Alex does not seem to be willing to understand what is being said here. Yeah, I mean, it's like fucking Finland's worried again. That's the level of where we're at with this. This is not like a, oh, he's going to get Crimea. This is like he has stated that before he dies, he's going to try and reunify the Soviet Union. That's basically what that speech is. There's a lot of, there's a lot of cause for concern. I'll be, I'll say that. That's for sure. Yeah. So that is, I think, one of the
Starting point is 00:42:50 central misunderstandings that Alex has, this idea that he's making this threat around the idea of decommunization, that Alex is interpreting as, hooray! They're going to be part of the free market again. Exactly. Market ship. They're going to replace a democratically elected governor with yeah. Yeah. So we go to the next day, we go to Tuesday and here's where Alex's head is at. It was so incredible and I'm going to do an emergency broadcast either tomorrow night or the next night where we take calls for three hours and I'm going to, but one hour is going to be playing his speech and analyzing it. My mouth, because I didn't, we didn't have time to play the whole thing. I want to get to see it all. I watched it last night. My mouth was hanging
Starting point is 00:43:34 open. Communism's bad. Stalin was bad. Lenin was bad. You want to decommunize things? We're doing it. We're having kids. We're free market and we're going to fight back against the globalists and the monopolies and the West corporations trying to make everybody puppets. It's so weird to tune into a world leader and just truth's coming out. It was all true. He said, I'm sorry. The Russians came into Ukraine when we were born. You're really the most Russians. Really? We're sorry that the communist killed you and abused you. We apologize. Communists are bad and we want you to be free and we're not going to take you over. Just your government needs to go. It was put in power by the West. You have your own government and you need to stop attacking
Starting point is 00:44:27 Eastern Ukraine. That's what I would do, knowing world history, if I was the leader of Russia. It's like hard to find fault with this man. That's the second time. He said it's hard to find fault with Putin. Wow. But now that this has expanded and Alex is saying that it's great for Russia to say you have to overthrow your government. Right. That would not be just involving the areas in Dumbass. No, your government was put in by the West so you have to get rid of your entire government. Our demands will be taking this land and overthrow your government. But you'll be free. We're going to take your land and overthrow your government. Cool. Sensible threats. That's what Alex would do. There's levels of reading comprehension
Starting point is 00:45:15 where it's like you can understand a book or like you can understand a chapter or you can understand a page or a paragraph or a sentence and all Alex gets is a word. He even heard that. Well, yeah. But I mean, he heard decommunized and he was like, that's all I've got. Yeah. He's latched onto that. He's written a story about what Putin was saying. He's got a whole lovely. That word was a prompt for him in an essay contest. Absolutely. And he failed. That's totally what it is. So again, he's heard this decommunization. He's thinking that it means a complete rejection and abandonment of communism. That may be a part of it, but it's actually a term that refers to the states that were formerly part of the Soviet Union moving away from their
Starting point is 00:45:51 time as a part of that group, oftentimes by way of purges of people who were involved in the Communist Party. The things that Alex is saying are the characterizations of what he imagines the word means, like having kids and being free market or fighting the globalists. I bring this point up for two reasons. The first is that Alex seems to be really hanging his hat on that misinterpretation and he keeps bringing it up. The second is that it really illustrates how much of Alex's reporting and geopolitical analysis is based on him making assumptions and then writing storylines based on those assumptions. It's a really unreliable method for reporting. Yeah. When Putin discusses his dislike of Stalin and Lenin and the Communist Party, he isn't saying that he doesn't like them
Starting point is 00:46:31 for the same reasons Alex does. If you actually listen to the whole speech, it's super clear that he doesn't like them because he blames them for breaking up the Soviet Union. Quote, It is now that radicals and nationalists, including and primarily those in Ukraine, are taking credit for having gained independence. As we can see, this is absolutely wrong. The disintegration of our United country was brought about by the historic strategic mistakes on the part of the Bolshevik leaders and the CPSU leadership. Mistakes committed at different times in state building and in economic and ethnic ethnic policies. The collapse of the historical Russia known as the USSR is on their conscience. Also, I think it would be a real stretch to say that he
Starting point is 00:47:11 was apologizing for anything, even that the predecessors did. No. This is the state that Alex is in during the early week. He's fully, fully cheerleading on Putin. He's saying he's a fount of truth and that he can find no fault in him as a leader. Alex is fully aware that Putin is most likely going to in some way or another annex the Donbass region and Alex is completely in support of that. Yep. He's bought the Kremlin line that this action would be taken to defend Russian speakers in the region, which is the consistent pretext that Putin uses to take hostile actions against his neighbors. And Alex has every reason to know that. Yeah. But then on Wednesday night, the status quo changed dramatically and Russia declared war against
Starting point is 00:47:51 Ukraine. As the UN Security Council held an emergency meeting, Putin announced his intention to demilitarize and quote denazify Ukraine and began a campaign against the country. The assault wasn't just limited to the Donbass region, but included attacks on cities far to the west of the region. The turn of events is not unfathomable, but it's far more extreme than most people seem to have expected. And I'll admit that even though I'm no expert on the region, so don't take my word as anything meaningful, but from everything I've read and seen, I was not expecting anything on this scale. Yeah. It's ultimately not the most important piece in all of this, but because this is a show about Alex Jones, it should be pointed out that Alex was
Starting point is 00:48:31 also entirely wrong about his assessment of the situation. He completely whiffed on his interpretation of Putin's speech on Monday and used that misrepresentation and misinterpretation to justify Putin's subsequent actions that led to the invasion of Ukraine. As is pretty much always the case, Alex is painfully wrong because he created his narratives by combining uncritical acceptance of hostile government propaganda with figments of his imagination. But that leaves us to pick up the pieces on Thursday. Now that Ukraine has been invaded and Alex's entire week charade is collapsed around him, how is he going to proceed? And more importantly, how will he pretend that he's been right all along? Yeah. That's the question we ask ourselves
Starting point is 00:49:12 as we enter the 24th. Yeah. You know, I mean, he's wrong about everything in the early week, but it does seem like he's cheering for like minimal loss of life at least. You know, I mean, he's saying fine, you can take your regions and shit and maybe it's right and all of that stuff is good. But the end point is we're not going to start a fucking war. That's the idea in his fantasy. Yes. Yeah. That's that's what I'm saying. That's his mindset coming into the war. Well, he imagines that there is a way for that to happen. Right. Right. There's a way for Russia to force the overthrow of Ukraine's government without there being civilian casualties and terrible consequences. He's pretending that's true, but it is not. It is absolutely not. And I think that
Starting point is 00:50:02 much like myself, maybe I was naive. I don't think that Alex expected what happened on Wednesday. Yeah. I think he is caught on his back foot a little bit and really has to figure out what he's going to do. Now we're floundering. Oh boy. Okay. And it kind of leads to him retconning pretty much everything he's ever said. Yeah. Gotcha. Well, we don't have to come in with our own canned air raid sirens from during the Cold War. We got real air raid sirens in 2022 as thousands of bombs get dropped on military targets across the birthplace of the Slavic people's Ukraine. Russia jealously does not want towards Soros to have it for himself. So Russia's grabbing it. That's the reality of what's going on. That's what Putin's been saying.
Starting point is 00:50:57 Oh, that's what Putin's been saying. Putin's been saying. Yeah. He's been saying that I'm going to take it over. He is. He's not been saying, I'm sorry, you guys can run your own country. We just want free market. No, he's saying I'm going to take this land. And if you want to be with Soros and the New World Order, you do you. Yeah, but you can't because I'm taking it. Right. Yeah. And that's what I've always said. This is strange. That's a little bit off-putting. Yeah, it's a little bit of the opposite of entirely. And if you're listening to Alex's show throughout the stretch of the week and paying any attention, you would have to be like, wait a second. Wait, this is not good. You said this wasn't going to happen. Not only you didn't say this was going
Starting point is 00:51:33 to happen, you interpreted Putin's words in a way to suggest that, oh, this is all cool. What he's doing is great. And now there's an invasion that's happening. And now you're interpreting these words in a completely different way. And even then still being positive about it. Yeah, like it's fine. Yeah. Well, I mean, listen, I don't think it's good that you can take over an entire country, but Soros has taken it over. So it's really taking it from Soros, not really taking over a country. Sure. Sure. Yeah. So, um, boy, Alex is proud of himself for reasons that are unclear to me. Putin has invaded Ukraine. Is he just taking out the military targets so far? But will he continue to ratchet up? That's the formula. That's how
Starting point is 00:52:16 that's how the US does it. That's how Hitler did it. I mean, that's that's that's how you inchworm take over a population in war. You never tell people what you're really planning to do. You're going to get the inside scoop, the best analysis there is out there. You can read the New York Times. They say Biden's done a great job. This is wonderful. You can tune in the BBC and hear that you know, Putin's the new Hitler or you can tune in here and actually really understand the history of things and make your own decision about where all this is going. But all hell is breaking loose. So here's a few clips of yours truly back in October and November of last year. So you just play some clips of himself talking shit about how there's going to be a war
Starting point is 00:52:59 and and such, which I think at any period in his career, you could come up with clips of him saying that kind of stuff if you wanted me in any random month. Yeah. And one of them I do remember is in the context of him talking about being out with Joe Rogan and some some other Joe's friends and talking shit about how there was going to be a war. And that was just just that was part of the prediction right to the future. Me and Joe Rogan and some buddies got drunk and I said that it'll probably be a war. So I'm going to play that as a victory lap. I was talking to some real higher ups on the day a war starts. Great. So classy. But you have to understand here. He's maligning all sorts of other information sources while saying like you tune in here, you get the
Starting point is 00:53:42 real shit. Like, yeah, it's not. Listen, you go to the you tune in to Info Wars and you get information that leaves you to completely ill equipped to deal with with the circumstances like this because you've been fed a line that Putin has no fault. He is a wonderful leader and all he really wants to do is is, you know, take takes what you don't like unification. You don't like de-communization. You don't like neat de-nazification, Dan. Those are all great things just like Americans for progress is a great group of people who are for progress. Sure. That's how words work. They always mean literally what it is they're about. Yeah, you you it's it's just strange for him to be bragging and sort of pumping up his own chest when he's living in the cons
Starting point is 00:54:28 like the aftermath of his own failure. Yeah, more or less in terms of information and he's taking a victory lap. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. It's glaring. You can turn it into the BBC and hear that Putin's the new Hitler in a meme tone of voice or you can turn in here and hear that Putin's a new Hitler. Hooray. Is he going to keep going? I don't know. We're going to have a great time. So Alex has a this weekend. He's going to do a long show on Sunday and there's a reason we'll be doing special reports and more at info wars.com as it's needed and we'll also be hosting Saturday live show and a special Sunday six hour live show that we're going to be doing this Sunday and that's going to be again kicking off at four p.m central standard time and going up until 10 o'clock
Starting point is 00:55:19 at night because CNN is running it every get that clip ready please 18 seconds CNN is running this promo every break and the only time CNN has viewers is during an election or during a war so they've gone from the lowest ratings I've ever had to their ratings are quite high right now and why would you be running promos about Alex Jones being the devil every single break I got told by folks it's every single break so I did something I never do I went tuned over to CNN this morning and the first time they went to break it was Alex Jones the devil and what does that tell you I mean that is the mouth of the New World Order demonizing me okay so he's the devil I've gotten a number of questions about the CNN yeah the the megaphone of conspiracy or whatever sure
Starting point is 00:56:16 I don't know if I talked to them I did talk to somebody at CNN it was months back right I never heard back from them right right right what tell everybody what you said to them well I didn't sign any confidentiality thing I don't know if I would get in trouble for saying this but I one of the things that I made very clear is that I would not be willing to be a part of any piece or documentary or anything that played up Alex as some kind of a mastermind or like some big uh like uh-huh villain kind of thing because I because we know he's a bumbling idiot who has weird beliefs about interdimensional demons fighting against fucking George Soros and the gang yeah I feel that if anything I'm going to lend myself to or appear
Starting point is 00:57:05 in for my own sake if if nothing else I don't want to perpetuate that image of him as some kind of a megaphone wielding a super villain type right and I don't know if that is was a deal breaker right and I think there's a decent chance that the person talked to me like this guy's an asshole yeah maybe maybe oh you're just gonna go around thinking you're some kind of special expert on Alex Jones that's what you're gonna do I think it's possible that I rubbed the person the wrong way that's I don't it's not like we had an unpleasant conversation or anything I just I I find myself to be unpleasant I think you're a pleasant guy well thanks yeah um so yeah I'm not in that special yeah that's the luggage short of it for all the people who have been asking yeah
Starting point is 00:57:55 did not hear back but again I want to also be clear when I talked to the person at CNN they said that there were possibly multiple projects so this might be a completely different thing than the person I talked to I don't know I did not hear back and hey based on this I bet I'm never gonna talk to anybody I would I would not be surprised by that yeah although I have declared talking to Brian Stelter my white whale okay there will be that yes yeah Stelter come at you yeah that is going to be something I need to check off the bucket list um so anyway uh CNN doing this hit piece on Alex um and there's a reason it's tricking I mean they attack me in hundreds of newspapers a day dozens of TV shows a day national shows every week I can't even keep
Starting point is 00:58:42 track of it it's just everywhere Alex Jones is Satan because they see me uh but as a representation of everything they hate about America a strong honorable man who's a father who believes in freedom and has rallied the people and has survived their attacks for decades and they think if we can just destroy him and and steal his identity once we've killed him or put him in prison then we can somehow defeat you you see they see me as you that's something Trump always said is they want to get through me to get to you they hate you they're your enemy they're at war with you it is absolutely true so that line about the enemy yeah they're attacking me because I stand between you and them is such a powerful and toxic line for propagandist steers because it achieves two really potent goals
Starting point is 00:59:34 the first is that it creates a centralized point that the followers need to support to the point of considering the survival and well-being of that central point it's as important as their own if not more yeah because they're not as important as the fight mm-hmm yep if Alex Jones or Trump is all that stands between you and certain globalist onslaught then it's in your best interest to do everything you can to protect them so you don't get onslaughted right this hustle is perfect because it works no matter what because the dreaded onslaught is imaginary as long as you're in business and siphoning off support from your scared audience you're doing your job and holding back this imagined army and if you go out of business or die then it doesn't matter if that onslaught
Starting point is 01:00:15 doesn't actually come because you aren't in a position to exploit the audience's fear anymore yeah it works coming and going it's perfect and you're not in a position to receive any kind of consequences for doing such you're out of business already yeah who cares yeah the second oh you guys got scammed surprised it's an american tradition oh so the second thing that this tactic achieves is to obscure and essentially sideline any legitimate criticism of this centralized point alex is a complete liar in a noted piece of shit in just about every aspect of his life that we have any information about but none of that really matters if he's the only thing holding back this imaginary army trump is a lifelong con man who treated the u.s government as his tool to exploit
Starting point is 01:00:56 for his own agenda and self-interest but if he's all that stands between you and this imaginary army does that really matter and hey doesn't he deserve it for standing in between you and the coming onslaught right what's a little corruption honestly if i were doing so much good i wouldn't be able to resist a little corruption this is how small-scale dictatorships operation it's just how government works dan so this is an insidious tool of manipulation and it's a direct abuse uh that alex is perpetuating on his audience also there are other people who criticize alex for plenty of other reasons not just because he's a strong man who has kids it is honorable and noble i can think of uh zero of those reasons and about a million other reasons i don't think those
Starting point is 01:01:43 have come up on our show um he's too honorable oh god it's so manly his ability to cry and whine and do nothing for anyone else and any good it's just so manly when i think of honorable people i think of those who refuse to take responsibility for anything oh yeah yeah nothing more honorable so we started this 24th episode and alex was kind of going back on some of the like interpretations that he had of right of pootin because they were wrong and nonsensical sure sure um but now he's he's gonna shift the narrative again pootin's troops raise russian flag in ukraine as z tanks which have come from the east and o tanks that come from belarus enter deeper into the nation and there is no real resistance because just like the u.s bought off
Starting point is 01:02:41 the iraqi leadership in go for one and go for two 90 plus percent of their generals you see that pootin has already done his work what and has already paid off the ukrainian military and that's why the russians know they can roll right in and face almost no resistance what because that's how real war is done this is really interesting because it's actually wrong in multiple ways i mean so many first it's wrong in the sense that it's a complete contradiction of everything alex was reporting and predicting earlier in the week and at no point is alex taking stock of how wrong he was and how he was supporting pootin directly in the lead up to this the second way this is wrong is that alex is making up everything about pootin paying off
Starting point is 01:03:24 ukrainian troops and there being no resistance there's been a ton of fighting with russian air units shot down and ground fighting taking place in multiple hotspots not just in donbas just one example of this is the fighting that's taking place at the gostomell airfield russian paratroopers came in and took over and they were confronted by ukrainian troops and as i was preparing this episode the outcome was still unknown yeah i'm not sure i have not checked they've been it's been like back and forth they've been coming out of ukraine's taking it back and then russia's taking it back from them and it's just so much yeah there and there's reports of many other instances of of fighting well the island of the snake island
Starting point is 01:04:04 yeah yeah i saw i saw something about that just before we started recording alex is reporting this complete fabrication because he needs this to be true to emotionally disconnect himself from the fact that he was part of a media chorus in the united states that cheered on and actively promoted the lead up to an invasion that is now killing civilians and causing widespread fighting in an invaded sovereign country alex supported the thing his brand is all about pretending to be against all because he's blinded by his imagination that pootin listens to his stupid show and is an ally against his pretend enemies alex cheered on something that is at best an attempt to overthrow a neighboring country's government and at worst an attempt to take the whole thing over and he
Starting point is 01:04:44 doesn't want to feel bad about that so in his head this is just a situation where pootins bought off the ukrainian military and is marching in uncontested yeah it's not a situation where civilians are hunkering down in subway stations for shelter where shells are hitting residential areas and where russian troops are attacking far more than the donbas region which is the flimsy pretext that alex bought from the kremlin and sold to his audience alex was wrong majorly wrong and in order to maintain the feeling that it doesn't matter that he's wrong this has to be fake yeah and so on his show it's fake that's it that's what's going on yep can't it's fake can't take responsibility for a single second and just gotta run and just gotta be always running tease
Starting point is 01:05:28 that thread out a little bit yeah it's not even just the responsibility it's the feeling oh yeah no of course well i mean what i don't want to have that feeling who wants to feel like they've cheerleaded the next hitler probably probably nobody there are some people who probably would be thrilled to have and it sure seems to be it's just those people generally don't have large million dollar businesses to protect does seem to be that way so huh anyway this is not the only time that uh people have just bought off armies you think the french just gave up in 10 days when hitler invaded in 1940 no no he bought off the entire french command and given dictatorship of france and moved their headquarters to vici for the next five years
Starting point is 01:06:20 and that's how wars died the uh tac on france didn't last 10 days uh also uh if france was bought off to let germany just come in a sure lot of a lot of french people die for no reason i think what alex is talking about is that they entered paris unopposed but that was because the french army had already taken a gigantic hit by that point and the french government had fled uh from paris that's one of the historical things that contributes to the whole right-wing joke about french people loving to surrender right uh we we went through that with the freedom fries and stuff in this iraq war yeah cheese eating surrender monkeys is uh as uh groundskeeper willy said yeah this is not how things played out in world war two nor is it an accurate description
Starting point is 01:07:01 of uh how the vici french came to be no but i guess it's simpler for alex just imagine these events in history were just like simple financial transactions yeah and and like everybody ever oh yeah the the paris whenever whenever the vici took over everybody was super cool with it because they were paid off there wasn't a consistent non-stop resistance from that single moment on until the end of the war and there wasn't like a government in exile no no no absolutely not no no anyway i guess this is simpler it must be so anyway now alex kind of has to wrestle with the Putin was lying uh a bit can't think of any way to fault this guy i can't either i heard alex say that twice and putin is taking ukraine he denied it they denied it they claimed oh we're just gonna
Starting point is 01:07:50 protect these zones and then oh we're just gonna route out the nazis which i mean how's the left saying no to that so look here's the thing i will tell you how sir here's the thing alex is saying like oh putin lied about his intentions and all this great that's just good strategy well alex isn't saying that oh but great great to like recognize that um now do a little soul searching about how you went on air repeatedly uh parroted those lies yeah and also said this is the most truthful person that i have ever seen the greatest world leader in terms of just given the truth just facts power of honesty the power that is what he said it's the power of honesty it's parody level it's insane to me yeah and if i were alex and i had done what he did and this was the result
Starting point is 01:08:48 even though i i don't pretend for any any in any any serious way that alex's actions had a direct result you know yeah putin's actions or anything like that of course yeah he's lying to his audience though and he has a responsibility to them to apologize to deal with hey look i bought that lie and i sold it to you i wanted to believe it yeah and that's why i believed yes yeah and i knew that it would be effective as something to sell you right it would not be fun and you probably would get mad at me if i were to say hey biden might be on to something here no one would have accepted that maybe the maybe the president was telling the truth the entire time and but and putin was lying which is an inversion of how things are supposed to work my my whole market space would
Starting point is 01:09:34 kind of be fucked by that and so i went with putin's lies because he's great and i sold it to you as the most honest thing in the world whether or not i actually believed that at the time right you need to do some unpacking on this something he's not he refuses to do it well at the same time accepting that putin was lying yeah about his intentions and what he was going to do and it's it's cowardly i mean it's it it is like he is spinning tons of plates right but because he's not because aren't there because there are no plates it doesn't matter if one of them falls right because they don't exist so it's like uh oh no this theoretical plate would have really fucked me up but haha i'm just spinning a fucking stick yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah and or even
Starting point is 01:10:21 like i don't i don't even i don't even know how to make a metaphor that works better than that so i'm gonna go with it thanks um here's more bullshit it's about 50 50 in the numbers of who wants to be ally with the euro who wants to be ally with russia what russia said hey you're slovic you founded russia we want you because ukraine's always been the good part of town for what is the russian empire what mama and they're not gonna let george soros have mama and so that's what's happening yeah so they can't soros can't have mama i mean it's just gotta feel like so much more work on this one to try and like pretzel your way through exhausting something like like you can't just be like holy shit putin's gone nuts but that's why it's changing
Starting point is 01:11:13 even over the course of this episode yeah of course because he's he's like i i don't even know where i'm at in the oroboros of lying right so we begin with like he's attacking military installations is it gonna go farther uh he's gonna take the whole country oh the invasion's fake yeah like it's just it's all purchased it's all sold nothing is actually happening everything and now soros has taken mama literally everything that you are going to see is a lie is what he's saying and include his show in that yeah exactly yes exactly so there's a real interesting change of tone uh that from previous days it's not yelling about how putin was so full of truth and the most straight-up leader in the world who alex can't find fault with who just wanted to protect russians
Starting point is 01:11:57 and don't boss it's taking ukraine so soros can't have it and alex doesn't seem like he is offended by that notion nope which is troubling also alex is full of shit about it being 50 50 in ukraine about joining with russia or the west a center for insight and research poll from december 2021 asked quote if ukraine was able to enter only one international economic union which one of the following should it be 58 percent said the eu compared to 21 percent who said quote customs union with russia belarus and kazakhstan another poll from 2021 reflected 64 percent support among ukranians for joining nato compared to 19 percent who opposed it right alex is trying to create the impression that the issue is split down the middle because it lends greater credibility to the side
Starting point is 01:12:42 that's far down in the polls which is the side alex supports which is boot yeah it's climate denialism as a both a lot of scientists say you know it's it's like it's you know they're equal viewpoints it's not necessarily they're 50 50 exactly but they're equal in strength you know yeah i feel about them yep so alex continues uh in the middle of this show as it goes on uh to pretend that there's no fighting going on in ukraine which is just wild but that's why you're not seeing any real ukrainian resistance because it was all for show and the comedian hollywood president was a double agent the whole time oh yeah that's what all the smart money is on that's what all the experts i know and i'm an expert myself no and so pootons fighting a war he already won before he pulled the
Starting point is 01:13:46 trigger and that's why we're info wars dot com tomorrow's news today this is brazen even for alex i mean they're going to kill zealinski like that's the that's the plan i'm sorry that my response was a yeah it was more of an exhale than a laugh but it probably sounded like a laugh no i mean it's fucked up and he's saying that he's a double agent they're gonna kill him we i i mean that's the plan i have difficulty assessing what i think is going to happen um and especially with uh circumstances as have happened over the past week i don't know right like right and so when you're saying that i just i mean that as the intelligence that was given out by biden is that he is target one and his family is talking to i would not be super right right right right right but i i feel
Starting point is 01:14:41 so like beyond my capabilities of like assessing what's going to happen outside of like information that is in front of me at this point yeah um but in terms of alex like how is tomorrow's news today when today's news is a direct contradiction of yesterday's news yeah i don't understand how that works today's news demonstrates that alex was making shit up yesterday so if you're listening to him you should probably recognize that tomorrow is probably gonna be the time when you realize he was making shit up today yeah it's important to understand that this stuff about a fake invasion and zealinski being a double agent is rationalization alex is worried that this conflict is gonna escalate and end up turning into a wider war and he knows that he's been way too public in his
Starting point is 01:15:23 support for budin if things continue and russia continues to aggress on their neighbors alex's business model can't survive being a medium mouthpiece for the enemy his brand works when he's talking shit and sounding like he knows everything it's not good when he's getting into lord ha ha or straight up father coglin territory yeah this rationalization also helps alex pivot away from overt budin cheerleading without having to accept the consequences if things do get worse he can say that after budin went into ukraine he stopped cheering him on and that ukraine was a false flag war where there wasn't even any fighting and the double agent president surrendered for money this allows alex to avoid feeling bad about the people
Starting point is 01:16:00 who died in the invasion which he supported and promoted because he's an emotional and intellectual coward that is what's going on yep um heartbreaking not not for him to be no the real world stuff is heartbreaking well i i mean that's it's so like you read about america in 1937 you know you read about how so many people were like hitler's great man hitler's super cool and look i get why you don't like him but he's gonna be calmed down by the the elements around him you know they're gonna moderate him yeah and it's like we're just doing it again and it's just so fucking sad it's really hard for me to assess what's going to happen and the the idea that this is going to necessarily spill into a world war right seems to me to be getting ahead of ourselves
Starting point is 01:16:54 a little bit sure sure that's the only thing that i'm pushing back on no no and i understand i'm not i mean you know it's easy to say that uh any comparison to world war two is in totality but i am i am just describing the the amount of propaganda and support that is being pushed that i don't disagree with that that part is very strange the the very it seems a fairly uniform among the the sort of higher end of the trump propagandist yeah yeah being on on putin yeah rushes yeah i mean you know they're nazis it's weird so uh look this is all just fake according to alex and you'll never guess who he blames soros make no mistake the fact that the russians are taking over all the nuclear power plants and coal power plants and gas plants
Starting point is 01:17:54 and they're taking over the government buildings and the airports and then some of the military people i know say yeah i've seen the footage it looked like a bunch of young 18 year old russians you know that aren't even special operations dragging rocket launchers around and no one's opposing them this this looks fake this isn't a real war well that's because it's all a big drill the ukrainian military was bought off and so now we'll see what happens with their puppet president a lot of times puppets end up getting hung but we'll see what goes on but this is all directly because of globalist
Starting point is 01:18:34 leftist western forces with all their transgenderism and all of their pregnant flight suits and all of their crt in the middle of all this the entire world thinks we're a complete joke now it shouldn't surprise anyone that this loop back somehow to being the fault of the meddling sjw's yeah alex is such an idiot and he's so caught up in his own narratives that the literal invasion of a sovereign country has to somehow be related to his bigot culture war obsessions it's really remarkable how little of substance he has to say and how much he retreats to these things he's completely making up like the war is fake and things that are really just muscle memory bigot culture war memes that he makes money spreading like it's yeah it's it's pathetic i don't know any other words
Starting point is 01:19:18 i mean he should be he should really have a boss to give him a performance review yeah like because this is bad i mean it that is that is an element that i have seen repeatedly come up that is an undercurrent of a lot of support for russia on this one is that like we hate trans people too that i mean it's deep set there's so many little arguments i've seen that are like and we've got trans people and you're like what no what what are we fucking talking about is that it is that what you need you need somebody to kill trans people for you that's what you want and it's fucked up it is it's so fucked up it is oh to be fair alex also uh took a swipe at crt yeah that's true that one's that one i think is is just uh that's just a bonus i don't i don't really
Starting point is 01:20:08 know how to to say anything other than what you're saying like it's just it it is what it is it speaks for itself it really does it really fucking does this complete monster so alex has a new conspiracy a little bit later he comes back from break and he's got a new one yeah well yeah i'm telling you where putin has miscalculated i guess he just doesn't care he's got nuclear weapons is that they're going to cut the power off in areas and pull a bunch of shenanigans and blame it on putin you can bet your ass on that okay that is the default move here a false flag to be blamed on the russians and the russians it looks like taking the bait to me i would not have done what putin did i know he thinks it's their country their people it's being taken from them that's where
Starting point is 01:20:51 russia started was the ukraine i they're moving weapons in i get it but he's looking three four moves ahead i'm looking 20 ahead so here's the narrative up till this point poon has paid off the ukrainian military to stand down thanks to some involvement from the double agent president zolensky right and is going to end up taking over ukraine right i guess that ukraine is now in on the whole thing but the international globalists who still don't like putin are going to do some false flag where they cut off the power maybe in ukraine or something and blame putin for reasons that i don't really understand yeah i don't i don't get what the game plan is here like if the rest of the stuff alex is saying is to believed i i don't really know how this would be a meaningful
Starting point is 01:21:27 part of the story yeah it's not even clear storytelling and i think alex is just throwing whatever at the wall it does it does have that feeling of just like okay okay no i got a new thought all right so that ignore the last stuff okay here's my new pitch like it's it's got that writer's room feel of like there's just a bunch of people throwing out ideas like is this something is this a good putin got suckered into this somehow but he also paid off the ukrainian military in government in order to well made i mean he had suckered into it by the triple agent president right he's been preparing to buy off the ukrainian military and now then they're gonna do false flags to blame him so when the ukrainian military fights back
Starting point is 01:22:12 it'll seem like they weren't paid off but the ukrain and soros paid them off now but if the the false flag uh like uh power attacks are in ukrain i don't get what that achieves if they're outside of ukrain like in the united states or united kingdom i don't think you need to invade ukraine to say that russia did them no i don't think that's a necessary piece of this don't need it all is it's i would if i were reading this screenplay i would ask for an edit i would ask just go give it another pass right this is muddy well i mean it does seem like i guess what he's trying to i think i guess he's trying to go back to the proxy war idea again so so putin's paid off ukrain and they're just gonna take it right
Starting point is 01:22:58 but then the eu doesn't want them to just take it because soros needs it so they are going to put false flags in ukraine which gives them an excuse to go into ukraine to fight putin is that what he's trying to say if so that's such a long walk it's so crazy just be like hey man you can't attack here and then go go go go if that's what you need to do yeah i don't know that's crazy anyway speaking of crazy yeah we got a guest up in the mix oh god no it's not steve oh thank god oh shit i thought it might be well yeah who else are you gonna come on to make lies for putin yeah steve's steve might be too much in the in the in the city yeah it's someone else well roger stone great former top trump advisor always has the ear of the president will leave it at that
Starting point is 01:23:47 they talk quite a bit and hang out quite a bit there in florida he lives right convicted felon and he's got a lot to say about russia january 6 and so much more roger stone thanks for coming almost today alex it's great to be back with you well as we used to say when i was a correspondent for info wars tomorrow's news today we predicted this a good 10 days ago that the plan to war was inexorable uh this was as i have said yesterday was entirely avoidable this i don't know what roger might have been saying at whatever point but alex absolutely did not call this wild this is yeah it's that's a little bit offensive i just don't have you know that's it's it is a little bit maybe i'm a little jealous you know because i don't have that level of confidence and psychopathic
Starting point is 01:24:37 ability to just declare that i did something right you know especially not if i didn't even if i did something well i'm terrible at being like hey man that was all me and i would like all of the credit yeah yeah it's it's brash that's a bit bold yeah gotta give it fortune favors yeah well it seems to for him so alex alex and roger uh are talking talking some ukraine news and roger drops a piece of information that even alex has to be like wait hold on now mic down for this is wild so uh one thing that did bother me and that that was that in one of the so-called underlying regions where the russians have already taken control they're starting to force people of the jewish faith to register i don't like that that bothers me a great is that real uh that is a press report
Starting point is 01:25:33 that i read this morning uh shortly before coming on i hope that it is incorrect i think roger is pretty out of line here uh if alex hadn't done a very out of character follow-up question yeah roger would have been allowed to claim on air as fact that jewish people were being forced to register in one of the parts of the donbas region because alex asked if it was true which is again bizarre for him what wild yeah roger has to retreat to a well i heard it somewhere maybe it's not true kind of defense he also conveniently doesn't say where this news report he got it from was so it could just maybe not even just a random ass tweet since roger doesn't specify i'm left to speculate about what he's talking about and the best i can do is that in 2014 there were flyers
Starting point is 01:26:14 that people found in east ukraine that said jewish people over 16 had to register with the komasar these were terrifying obviously but also they appeared to have been a hoax yeah with neither the ukrainian nor the pro-russian separatist side clearly being behind the distribution some believe that it was possibly an extortion racket that some splinter groups of the separatists are trying to get going but it's hard to say for sure that said this was news from the last invasion but all the same this is super serious allegation that roger is just throwing around if he's gonna act like that he needs more to back it up than some random thing he may have heard that he doesn't even know if it's true or not it's fucked up i can't these standards are too low
Starting point is 01:26:54 he's he said that russia is forcing jewish people to register is that what he said or was he saying that ukraine no he's saying that the russians are going into a territory and saying that jews must register right it's confusing i mean if that's what he's saying i feel like he's justifying a war against russia right like you can't you can't also be like and it's cool that jews are registering maybe maybe it's like a situation where he's assuming that russia doesn't have like control over denetsk and luhansk and so maybe the ukranians are doing it i mean yeah because it goes along with the denazify kind of idea that right gave in the justification for the declaration right but i mean it wouldn't make sense for them to do it now
Starting point is 01:27:45 after the war has started let me tell you about aim for wars that's a good point no need yeah no need to explain further yeah and i don't feel we get any other clarification on this because alex asks that follow-up question and it cuts roger off at the knees yeah he has to retreat because he can't defend this position no absolutely not so we don't get any more information great anyway putin invaded he's going for the whole country and alex again refuses to accept that he fell for this shit all right roger stones ride the shotgun with us a little bit the next hour that i'm gonna have two hours of open phones ahead apol joseph watson and then i'm gonna be hanging around here i'll be on the war room i'm looking to do some nighttime shows this is also huge russia
Starting point is 01:28:29 is invading the whole of ukraine uh putin has used deception as you do in war and he is now moving into the whole thing used deception on you he used deception on you well you know what sometimes disinformation is necessary for enemies and allies so i understand you and on but look the the deception didn't really work with much of the international community okay so you're saying they worked with alex and tucker all right now that does make sense yes yeah so get get get off your fucking highfalutin horse gear uh with this deception stuff so then shouldn't you have to then say other people got it right well i got it wrong i'm glad you brought that up we are in a global convoy an amazing footage coming out of shot down rush helicopters full-scale invasion
Starting point is 01:29:26 one thing biden said was true i guess clocks even when they're broken or right twice a day well putin uh biden was right gotta give it up yep gotta give it up to the samali biden so now alex has i mean he's admitting that biden was right yeah yeah biden was right but you know what he's now what do we do he was wrong well alex was wrong well i think it's implied that if you admit biden was right you have apologized for being wrong yeah also the whole shot down helicopters thing would seem to contradict alex's earlier point about the ukrainian military just being paid off by putin but yet i don't see him retracting that or correcting himself or wrestling with how he was wrong like i also think you should take the realization that biden was right a little
Starting point is 01:30:09 harder than he is because it really hurts yeah it really hurts his whole thing i mean for just to be blasé about well i guess he's right you know sometimes you get i mean bananas he's the devil he's literally working for the devil like cnn he can't he can't be right sometimes biden was the biden's the devil i thought you were calling alex the devil no no no biden i mean if you in your cosmology biden is working for the literal devil he's way down the flow chart sure that's true it's not larry he doesn't he doesn't have the think info yeah the think foe so roger's appearance can go fly a kite yeah quite honestly it's just the same shit he just wants money yeah there's no there's no question about it but alex we have no choice but to fight and we can't fight if we are
Starting point is 01:30:56 unarmed financially so people need to go to stonedefensefund.com help me not only sue adam schiff in the january 6th committee but help me sue hillary clinton and her retinue i'm going to try to get alex jones and general flin and maybe even paul manford to join me in that class oh i'm on board i mean i have to fight back i don't even we have to do it stonedefensefund.com people can find books films t-shirts and more on your other side i'm thrilled uh for this not to happen wow so fucking petty really sounds important today doesn't it does it does i'm gonna sue hillary i'm gonna i've got a fake lawsuit for hillary clinton you should give me money today so i can fake sue hillary clinton yeah i think roger's taking to this like lawsuit grift a little too um eagerly he's thirsty
Starting point is 01:31:46 yeah it's too thirsty it doesn't come off well he cannot come off desperate the moment he comes off desperate his mystique is punctured to the point where you're like oh you're a sad petty old man aren't you with a tattoo of richard nixon on your back he needs like i don't know weird consulting fees paid by foreign dictators absolutely to be paying for his top hats right he can't be coming to you and asking for money for a top hat it does not work that's not how that goes you don't get to be the dandy villain uh with uh uh crowdfunding yeah if you want to be a fop you got a con upwards you can't con down if you want to be a real well the information con goes down right or i'm sorry it it is done to the people on the lower level right the money con goes up exactly that's the the flow
Starting point is 01:32:34 chart for roger's ship yeah yeah so alex has a meme that he saw a lot of memes a lot of memes this is what folks are putting on on twitter and instagram and everywhere and it's it's going viral and you can look it up it's true i don't just believe what people put out the world economic forum countries where the prime minister is a member of the world economic forum and it's basically every country in western europe except for spain and portugal that's a real cult that's what we're up against so what does it mean to be a member of the world economic forum as an individual like does it mean that you've gone and given a speech at one of the davos conferences or that you've attended one like if it's like this seems like a low bar i don't i don't know like
Starting point is 01:33:19 it's not people on the boards no obviously i mean the board of trustees or anything because trump went to davos in 2020 right right right but every uh okay so all the people who go to the world economic forum obviously they can become a member and if you choose about 10 of those who become members are taken to their underground uh brainwashing center where they are hooked into a chair e e and f on the temples wf w that's what it is man that's bad e and oh man no wf is world economic forum that's right uh no electro uh neural what was e g no never mind okay it's the whatever but yeah so that's what they do that's what they do okay yeah so this is just cherry picked bullshit that alex is reporting based on a meme that was posted on twitter by former
Starting point is 01:34:08 n h l player and current conspiracy peddler uh theo flurry if you recall he was one of the people who was originally peddling the million truck nonsense on fox news and the lead up to the ottawa occupation and i guess that brand was lucrative for him so he's doubling down on the world economic forum stuff right he posted a meme that wasn't even about western european leaders but of people in the canadian federal government who are quote listed on world economic forum dot org slash people that page is blank and it has been and all the captures on the way back machine going back to 2016 so i'm not sure how anyone would even go about checking this list but even assuming that all the people he has on there are uh have attended davos that proves nothing and it
Starting point is 01:34:49 has nothing to do with western europe also not to split hairs here needlessly but most people who have breakdowns of world regions they consider spain and portugal portugal to be in southern europe not in western europe uh this is a dumb meme that alex saw he decided it was groundbreaking and he thought he should write a new story about it before reporting on it this is dumb this is his process this is what he does yeah yeah yeah saw a meme by a former nfl or n h l player theo flurry was he what was his i don't know uh you didn't you didn't pull up his stats no do we have a do we have a card but here's the problem too with me i don't know anything about hockey right and so like if i looked at his card it would yeah probably be like hieroglyph right i don't know what these
Starting point is 01:35:32 stats are points for a goal and an assist i get that yeah hat trick that's three that's three yeah what's icing uh icing is whenever you skate and then you're like and then you hit somebody in the face with some is it really i don't know probably i think it's a stat maybe it's not see this is how little i know oh i think is whatever you uh put get the puck out of there so your defense you get the puck out of it you get the your defense and the offense is like and you're like i gotta get this puck out of here if you get it out of there that's icing icing yeah on the cake why not so alex's head what i would describe is internally inconsistent narratives about ukraine on the 24th yeah that all fly in stark contrast to the nonsense he was doing right at the beginning of the week
Starting point is 01:36:20 right and this clip is where i believe he gives up and so we're here watching all this unfold we're here watching this as it takes place and then we're told that the borders of ukraine are the most holy thing in the world and that the russian shouldn't be there when the people controlling and running our country when the very sovereignty of our nation is being erased in front of the planet and here's the bottom line it isn't just that they don't care and broke the border it's that the globalist un have told the third world to come here they have shut down the third world they've been in years of lockdowns to then flush them up here to be now political pawns a
Starting point is 01:37:15 new permanent underclass of the globalist making us the third world not to empower the third world but to permanently use these masses of people they've been exploiting as an invasion force they control you can see here that alex essentially has nothing to say about the situation in ukraine this is very clearly an attempt to shift the focus into a subject matter that he's much more comfortable yelling about namely his racist great replacement conspiracies this doesn't even merit response because the situations he's describing aren't analogous in any way instead i'm playing this clip solely to demonstrate one of the ways that alex's coverage works he's throwing so much shit at the wall because he has no idea what's going on but he's still
Starting point is 01:37:58 expected to be the guy who knows everything right this manifests first at the beginning of the week as his supposed deep wisdom about russian history and how pootin is so right that there's a need to defend russian speakers in dunbas alex fully understands pootin because he's an info warrior and pootin just wants free market and prosperity for the people to have kids in the west so it can survive and thrive then that falls apart when pootin invades ukraine so alex needs a new story this largely takes the form of alex making up that there's no ukrainian resistance and that pootin paid off ukraine including the double agent president zelensky alex knows that this isn't gonna fly and by this point in the show i'm sure one of his interns is telling him that
Starting point is 01:38:37 there's fighting in multiple locations around ukraine and alex even let's slip that there were russian helicopters down yeah that narrative isn't gonna last but it was a first try to make a further conspiracy out of the situation that he could use in the future he's buying time yeah with that failing he needs another distraction because without distractions it's really too obvious that ukraine is under attack and alex reported completely false information that made his audience support the actions that led up to it the perfect distraction here is exactly what alex is doing his arguments have failed his information is shown to be bullshit so the last refuge he really has is just a point to his racist great replacement obsessions and say why should i care
Starting point is 01:39:16 about their border when we're not fighting to defend our border it's essentially a white flag in terms of the whole narrative building exercise here and maybe a white nationalist flag would be more appropriate in terms of this but the point is that it's more of a white hood really yeah if he's pulling this out alex doesn't have shit this indication of giving up kind of even started earlier in the show where he was trying to say that acceptance of trans people in the united states somehow led to this but this is where his resignation is really crystal clear maybe you'll have something more to say at a later day or someone will feed him some information during a commercial break but at this point this dude is done you hear this that is done yep he's baked
Starting point is 01:39:54 yeah that's that's straight up like pat Buchanan like 9-11 happened because we allowed gay marriage or whatever it is you know like it's it's straight up that kind of fucking it's no more anchored to reality no it's it's probably magic what's happening is magic from god is a punishment for us caring about people that was that was sort of earlier in the episode a little bit of a lash out kind of yeah but when he's sitting here saying why do we care about Ukraine when our southern border they're they're flooding an invasion force of third world populations that's giving up yeah that's that's being like okay guess what all the shit of the race of shit that I yell about all the time that's more important than this yep yep who cares
Starting point is 01:40:39 and he wouldn't do that if he actually had something to to work with yeah he's this pathetic it is it is the sign of somebody who has no fucking clue yeah and maybe he got a mean text from scousen during the break so now here is here is a interesting mirror that I noticed early in the episode we talked about Monday Alex plays without interruption Putin's speech right he doesn't cut in and and say like you know what actually about anything nothing instead he just listens reverently on this episode on the 24th Alex goes to a Biden speech listen to his behavior and how it's a little bit different okay I imagine it'll be a little different even before it starts we are back live taking your phone calls but Biden just
Starting point is 01:41:31 started speaking so please be patient callers I love you Larissa and Virginia and everybody else I'm going to get to you in a moment but let's let's hear some of Biden if he can get his words starting together here it is sorry to keep you waiting so even before it starts he insults him yeah if he can get his words together this grumpy old dumb dumb can even speak words right the reverence that he showed and the respect that he showed for Putin is in direct contrast the most honest and powerful man I've ever seen speaking and only saying that after you've already formally cut off the speech you're not talking over him at all nope now here is how Alex behaves during Biden this is a premeditated attack Vladimir Putin has been planning this for months as
Starting point is 01:42:20 of as we've been saying all along like shutting Keystone down more than 175,000 troops military millions in the US along the Ukrainian border but up in the border he moved blood supplies into position you may pedophile build a field hospitals you find a black lives matter to burn down cities tells you all you need to know about his intentions all we know about you see this is what he does what a child he's already said that Biden was right yeah about the the situation that we're looking at right now but now I don't care about Ukraine because what's more important is Keystone sure and my guess no it's just opposition to Biden yeah yeah no I know it's just performative yeah but it also leads to like what I would describe as a a bad stand-up riff oh no he's
Starting point is 01:43:04 talking over so much that he gets distracted into like hey you know what the problem with this is get out of here it's uh it's like a bad Adam Corolla riff it's unfolding largely as we predicted I love how they do the sign which is a virtue signal we've seen shelling in all TVs no it's so people who can't it's just some weird leftist thing like look we don't just have him talking we do this so you feel like we're close look we're good we added that cyber attacks against Ukraine it's called be saw staged wow he's so desperate to say stuff over Biden so you can't hear him he can't hear you can't hear the points that are being brought up uh because they are threatening well because Russia is attacking with 175 000 troops well hey but let me tell you about no
Starting point is 01:43:47 it's closed captioning yeah you don't need sign language people yeah man what yeah you got him that'll that'll that'll that's what we need to deal with yeah yeah oh awesome yeah so uh I mean this is this is ridiculous the the way he's behaving so differently between these two speeches is it tells you all you really need to know it's absurd we create two new so-called republics on sovereign Ukrainian territory it's possible sovereign the left teaches no borders no walls no USA at all and we don't have borders and they shouldn't exist but now sovereign Ukrainian territory which is part of Russia for a thousand years continue wait hold on now I'm sorry you seem to be going back on some stuff because you want to yell at Biden wow so now instantly we're like
Starting point is 01:44:46 yeah let's take over Ukraine and also hey pump the fucking brakes it what Biden was never chanting no borders no good god I would give anything right for a president to be like borders are bad that'd be great yeah I think that Alex in much the same way that he'll say like George Bush was a liberal or something like that right he does he paints with such a untargeted brush yeah is so dumb with his definitions that he's like oh yeah Biden and the no borders people yeah like great get the fuck out of here so yeah Alex convinces himself basically to go back to being solidly pro Putin just because he gets mad just because Biden yeah yeah great Putin is the aggressor Putin chose this war and now he in his country yeah if I move in
Starting point is 01:45:39 on your doorstep and I just say I'm gonna live on your porch now and then I aim a machine gun at you when you walk out your door every day it's actually true if you finally walked out and punched the dude in the face that aims a machine gun at you you're the aggressor I mean I mean really anybody buy this crap it's just not true so you can see Alex is becoming more and more pro uh uh Putin as Biden speaks because Alex's politics and his perspective it isn't anchored to anything other than opposition his only coherent perspective is to be against the positions that are expressed by his imagined enemies so as soon as Biden is giving a speech saying the Putin is the aggressor here Alex has to deny that and go on his knee jerk rant even after saying earlier in the show that Biden was
Starting point is 01:46:21 right about this situation that he's Putin is taking the whole country yep it's pure and simple this is an emotional outburst on Alex's part he doesn't even really mean the things he's saying I don't think and the shit that's coming out of his mouth contradicts the things he was saying earlier in the show but it doesn't matter it doesn't matter because the product he's selling the audience isn't analysis it's an emotional experience the emotional experience of pretending to yell down Biden and shut him down you liar yep this is the emotional experience of pretending to know secret information that no one else has it's the emotional experience of being proven right even when all the things that are happening are the opposite of what you predicted this is the the
Starting point is 01:47:01 emotional resonance that is enjoyable for Alex's audience yeah and it's all a facade it doesn't mean anything yeah I mean if what you're selling people is a secret special knowledge that makes them smarter than everybody else more powerful than everybody else and uh I mean who cares what's real sure you're just as long as you're providing the feeling of being smarter than everybody else and if you feel it then it's real yeah then it's it doesn't matter if you're not holding anything it's it's magic and and I think that this next clip um Alex he shots off Biden's speech because he's like fuck this I can't listen to this asshole uh pretty quickly compared to the very long time he listened to uh Putin you know isn't that such like you know they can't they'll
Starting point is 01:47:51 never do it it's never gonna happen this is so such a simple moment of like you're going to listen to everything Putin says even though Biden's right you're still gonna side with Putin just because just because just because I feel like about his intentions even though yeah I'll never not even this one time when I do know he's right I've said it not even this one time can I listen no I can never do it not once nope never nope not even when it's fucking war which you are against theoretically yeah he hates intervention or like you know regime change wars he certainly is opposed to those except for now it's strange but not that strange now going back to this like this feeling versus reality kind of conflict right um this next clip I think is actually really indicative of that
Starting point is 01:48:41 Alex has a little bit of a clip of Nancy Pelosi that he thinks is such a slam dunk oh my god now let me treat you to Pelosi where she's saying a country in a whole different area of Europe is Ukraine she doesn't even know the country of Ukraine and she says a totally different country here it is some of leadership of well if you look at the map and you see Hungary and you see how it is encircled Russia Belarus Crimea which they have taken over but had you know it's still a danger now to Ukraine and then you see Poland and Romania and all of those countries just abutting that's a Russian influence so you heard Russia invaded Hungary right so Alex is a liar and this clip is deceptively edited to make it sound like Pelosi thinks Ukraine is hungry he achieves this by
Starting point is 01:49:41 cutting off which he had said just prior to that clip starting quote what was interesting was to see the heads of state with whom we had interactions as well of countries who are newer members of NATO and the concerns that they have what's next for Putin if he were to be successful in Ukraine I had the privilege of sitting next to the president of Latvia for most of the plenary sessions and others have uh others there were very concerned about what would be next right when she mentions Hungary as well as Poland and Romania she's referencing countries that were of concern to NATO members about states that could be in trouble if Russia took over Ukraine Alex either knows this and is playing the clip deceptively or he never even took the time to
Starting point is 01:50:21 find context it's just desperate to play a clip that seems to show someone he doesn't like miss speaking which I guess is a huge win for the info war I mean that's the feeling he wants to spread this feeling of Nancy Pelosi doesn't even know what countries are what we got him yeah see look at this yeah look at how smart you are and how stupid she is yeah but the reality of it is is just a lie Alex yeah I mean it's not hard to come to the conclusion that if they if Putin's not stopped he's going to do it again it is a very simple thing if he wasn't stopped from 2008 he did Crimea if he wasn't stopped in Crimea he does Ukraine and it's if he's not stopped in Ukraine he's gonna go for yeah it's not like Hungary is in South America it borders Ukraine yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:51:05 absolutely anyway and if if Orban is worried about it then we're in real trouble there hmm yep so Alex interviews a guy named Patrick Lancaster who's a journalist on the scene in Donbass and yeah I don't know I got some sketchy vibes yeah I don't know a ton about him but I looked into him a little bit and there's some people that's a very serious distrust of his his motives and history yeah that doesn't sound wrong and one of the things that I thought was a particular red flag is he claims to be a crowdfunded journalist oh no but he makes $15 a month on patreon or something like that it's a good crowd I don't know exactly where this crowdfunding is I looked at some other of his pages that he has OPS almost no support and I don't uh I have some
Starting point is 01:51:58 okay I have some misgivings about all right just because you have one rich backer and a bunch of very uh one dollar givers does not mean it's not a crowd it's a crowd in some sense um but yeah he doesn't really actually say anything that adds to yeah any real conversation of course not but Alex ends things off with a bit of an assessment and we'll see how this whole god knows yeah and now you've got Klaus Schwab we have the clip I want to go to calls want to play Klaus Schwab it's a short clip last year saying this cyber attack is what is coming it's what makes it COVID-19 look like nothing in comparison power will be out you and then everything they're doing is around that and now they're saying the Russians are going to cut our
Starting point is 01:52:44 power so Biden's in clips saying oh last week this week today we're not going to fight back against the Russians to get them to invade and like I said I think the Russians have been led into a trap what yeah so now the Russians led into a trap Biden played possum I guess and said we're not going to attack in order to get Russia to attack so I guess maybe the the whole thing that he was selling about it being a fake invasion was just him talking shit that's abusive you know we go back to I've said it many times that this is abusive you've said that this is abusive this is so fucking abusive I'm I'm furious that this is allowed to occur even in one man yeah even if he wasn't on the air I am abused by the idea of somebody saying all
Starting point is 01:53:39 of this to me not to be around I would be able to leave yes yeah yeah yeah it's it's nuts I mean like this it makes no sense when like included with the totality of his coverage over the course of the week let alone the day yeah and it also doesn't like obviously he plays that clip of Klaus Schwab and he's just saying that like it's something to be concerned about and that if there were widespread cyber attacks it could be something that would be more damaging societally and more disruptive than the COVID lockdown yeah I mean they could shut down a massive chunk of the power and let it like and then we're all fucked and leave alone like Russia doing it there's a lot of actors that could do that oh yeah there's a lot of potential vulnerabilities right um
Starting point is 01:54:25 and Alex interprets that as like haha he's threatening to do this whatever that's how Alex's brain operates it's stupid yeah been over that a hundred times yeah leaving that aside like I mentioned earlier you don't need a lured in invasion of Ukraine to to be like hey we got to be worried Russia might have a cyber attack plan yeah of some sort yeah that is a completely unnecessary middle step along the way it makes no sense for the larger storyline nope it's just Alex trying to find ways to rationalize yeah like how am I gonna move forward with this it has to be anything other than the guy I said was the most honest guy in the world lied to me and then started a war that only he wants yep it cannot be that the guy I say is the truth teller is lying and is
Starting point is 01:55:17 not even a conquester or anything like that just a plain old mass murderer and that's it he's a criminal he's not even a powerful leader and let's not forget this the person who fell for that lie was Alex you got it and Alex sold it to his audience as truth yeah so and he just does it you don't want to recognize that you never want to it is it is so much just like you know he lied to you you know that like don't you feel offended by that a little bit and don't you I would feel offended if the guy that I think is honest was lying to me the whole time I know that Steve has told him that Putin listens to and forwards he doesn't he does not he doesn't give a fuck about you and he lied about nope he doesn't know who you are never heard and he lied to you does not care he lied to you
Starting point is 01:56:08 in such a way to make you lie to your audience yeah Matt you were manipulated by somebody who absolutely does not care about you just like you've been manipulated by Trump just like you've been manipulated by Steve you're just a fucking moron that's what Alex is a mark yep and we can see the kind of stakes that he's willing to be a mark about and then after the fact try and rationalize it with these bizarre stupid conspiracies that he's making up and which is wild because even Trump was like Trump was like hey I love the move of overthrowing Ukraine it wasn't like oh there's an excuse for why Putin my buddy is overthrowing Ukraine he's just like fuck yeah kill him I just saw the headlines about that I thought he was just saying that like in 2014 it was genius
Starting point is 01:56:57 what he did okay I don't know I didn't I didn't read the full thing so I'm not sure but I also think like from what I understand he was also like this wouldn't happen under my watch yeah because it's also insane great yeah cool it's also gotta be insane enjoy yeah um yeah I'm interested to see particularly what's gonna happen when Alex sees how Tucker responds yeah because that I think might have some kind of um it does feel like literally everybody's waiting for Tucker to tell them how to feel if Tucker is like fuck this Putin's right everybody's gonna be like yeah I think so many people will fall in line once the Fox News line is given to them I feel like I have no faith that Alex is gonna have his own like actual take based on based on this waffley nonsense like
Starting point is 01:57:47 I just don't I don't think he has any he's not standing on solid ground and the kind of people that he could bring in to give him solid ground would be Steve and he's no good yeah he's passed his expiration date you have Joel Scouson and he's not gonna play ball no he hates Putin I don't know what other kind of like legitimate geopolitical experts he has in the bullpen that could cut like rogers no good well yeah you can't have a legitimate political expert it's not a possibility because this is so cut and dry you know like this is Steve would help him Steve would help him but you can't have Steve because Steve would go rogue you don't know what Steve is going to help him with yeah Steve cannot be a helper Steve's gonna get you into the hay he's gonna get you into
Starting point is 01:58:34 trouble you're gonna be like war crimes are fun right yeah yeah this might be the temperature might be too high yeah yeah you can't have Steve anywhere dear this shit that's too bad because those swings oh bad I mean it as if you can't you can't because I'm imagining having fun with it and I can't do that yeah that's not cool no unfortunately in these circumstances it's disrespectful to horrific do a Steve yeah yeah um well we'll be back Jordan hopefully um hopefully yeah we will be back but hopefully yeah yeah I don't know how to finish that dot dot yeah um until then we have a website we do have a website it's all trite.com yep we're also on Twitter we are on Twitter it's at knowledge underscore fight and I go to bed Jordan yeah we'll be back uh I'm neo I'm Leo I'm
