In this installment, Dan and Jordan try to make sense of Alex celebrating the ideas of a return to the Monroe Doctrine, a rise of American empire, and the creation of a "prison planet" in El Salvador.

Dan
Hello, Alex. I'm a. I'm a huge fan.
Alex Jones
I love your room.
Jordan
Knowledge Fight.
Alex Jones
Knowledge Fight dot com. I love you.
Dan
Hey, everybody. Welcome back to Knowledge Fight. I'm Dan.
Jordan
I'm Jordan.
Dan
Where a couple dudes like to sit around at the altar of Selene and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
Jordan
Oh, indeed we are.
Dan
Dan Jordan.
Jordan
Dan Jordan, quick question for you.
Dan
What's up?
Jordan
What's your bright spot today, buddy?
Dan
My bright spot today is I was poking around on YouTube and I was recommended a video from Vice, and I thought, why not? Check this out.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
It was a series that Jamali Maddox, who is on taskmaster. Okay. I knew him from there.
Jordan
Okay.
Dan
He was hanging out at, like, the gun church.
Alex Jones
Okay.
Dan
You know that guy, Reverend Sun.
Jordan
Young Moon's son. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dan
And so I gave it a whirl, and I really enjoyed it. So I watched some more, and I think it's really nice. When I was in college, I used to really love Louis Theroux's weird weekends.
Jordan
Okay.
Dan
And, like, when he would go in bed with, like, the Westboro Baptist Church, there's something about a British person interacting kind of jovially with American weirdos.
Jordan
Right, right, right, right.
Dan
That'. He taps into that, like, Jamali is good at being this guy who's clearly critical of what he's seeing on some level, but also not being hostile to the people to the point where they would throw him out.
Jordan
Right, right.
Dan
And I find his presentation quite good. I enjoy it.
Jordan
And there's something very American about allowing a British person to just kind of insult you to your face and then not care.
Dan
Yeah, well, it's. It's. The. They're. Him and Louis are both people who are able to present pretty harsh things, but not in a way that feels like a criticism.
Jordan
Yeah, see, that's.
Dan
It's not just like, hey, you're an asshole.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
It's like, I don't know if I'm sure what you're doing is good. And I'm fascinated by the Ability to get to say that.
Jordan
There'S. There's never been a you bad that the British couldn't make six paragraphs long.
Dan
Yeah. Anyway, I've enjoyed it. I recommend it. What's your bright spot?
Jordan
My bright spot is you.
Dan
Yes, me.
Jordan
You warned me about Warriors Abyss, this new video game, and I thought I'd give it a try. And I was like, oh, it's all right at first. And then yesterday I got. I played it for a good hour or two and then it hooked me. I don't know what it is. I don't know what happened, but it scratched the itch. And now I'm just reveling in that thing that Dynasty warriors games do so well, which is give you like 60 characters every time you press a button. It's like, it's a little bit different. It's not actually different.
Dan
No.
Jordan
You know, in the back of your mind, this is the same thing.
Dan
There's going to be some kind of an effect that goes across the screen or like some sort of different color of like burst.
Jordan
There's going to be a number that is. That is associated with damage, etc. Gets me.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
They get me.
Dan
The end. Like the aesthetically different enough weapons. Yeah. It's. It's dangerous on that level.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
I was not meaning to warn you. I thought that there's no way this would appeal to someone other than me.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Because I like a roguelike and I like Dynasty Warriors.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And so I thought like, oh, this isn't my sweet spot. I didn't for a second consider that you would try it.
Jordan
It hit me in the Haiti spot.
Dan
Right.
Jordan
That's what it was.
Dan
Right.
Jordan
It hit me in the Haiti spot. It's got enough. And it's like.
Dan
It's almost like an inverse in hell too.
Jordan
Right, right, right. No, it's clearly they played Hades and we're like, this would be great if we were putting money in here. Yeah. No, but. But it is like. It's almost like an inverse proportion for Hades where Hades had so much story, but then when you're going through there was six weapons, you know, there. There weren't too many ways to play, you know.
Dan
Well, you get different boons and stuff, change things a little. But there's only six base weapons, as opposed to 100.
Jordan
As opposed to 100.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
So there's. There's very little story to no story, but, you know, there's 100 different people. And every time you go in through, you find out this person attacks with a butterfly. Hooray.
Dan
Yay.
Jordan
Next game. Boom. Next. 100 more. Let's go. Next one. Let's go.
Dan
Yeah, it looks like a giant baby and he's got a hu. Club. What?
Jordan
Boom. Next.
Dan
The old man has a bow and arrow.
Jordan
He's got a bow and arrow. Next.
Dan
That guy have a gun.
Jordan
I finally. I unlocked Lubu this morning.
Dan
Oh, no.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
You're in deep world Destroyer.
Jordan
I'm sure it is ridiculous. It is a completely different game. When you unlock that character, you're like, oh, why am I even trying?
Dan
I'm sure he's deeply overpowered.
Jordan
Beep, beep. Next.
Dan
Yeah, like, it's bad. And by the time. Because he's the like furthest to unlock, by the time you get up to him, you probably have unlocked a lot of like just general every character upgrades and stuff. So yeah, he's a monster.
Jordan
Oh, yeah.
Dan
In every form.
Jordan
It's brutality. Yep.
Dan
I did not get the bug from that. I did not end up getting. I just dabbled in it for a minute. And then I heard that there was a Ninja Turtles use roguelike, which now.
Jordan
I have to also, and so I.
Dan
Jumped over to that. So now you're gonna get into that. Cause that's way more like. Ha.
Jordan
Oh, God.
Dan
If you have the Hades itch, then that Ninja Turtles you have.
Jordan
You have damned me to hell, my friend. And by getting me out of hell and into the sewers.
Dan
The only hope that I have, because I haven't really played much of this Ninja Turtles one, but the only hope that I have is that it goes deep. I want so many characters you can play as 100% so far I know that Casey Jones is in the game. Excellent. And the four turtles.
Jordan
Perfect.
Dan
But I need so many more.
Jordan
You're gonna need Splinter.
Dan
Well, Splinter has been kidnapped. This is the premise.
Jordan
Oh, okay. All right.
Dan
So maybe he unlocks if you save him or something.
Jordan
Oh, boy. Yeah. I mean, you should be able to fight a Shredder, right?
Dan
Shredder is the bad guy.
Jordan
Well, yeah, but I mean, later on.
Dan
Yeah, maybe. Yeah, yeah. I'm not open. I'm not closed off to new game plus having the villains in there. But I'm talking about like that bunny Gyo Jimbo.
Jordan
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Saki Yojimbo. Yeah.
Dan
Who? A Baxter Stockman. He's going to be a bad guy. Who are the other good guys?
Alex Jones
April.
Dan
I'd like to be able to fight his April.
Jordan
Oh, you're. You've for sure got to be able to fight his April. Yeah, yeah. You know, actually, that's A good point. I don't remember too many of the good. What's his face from Secret of the Ooze?
Dan
Well, there was Venus.
Jordan
Pizza guy.
Dan
No pizza guys. Secret of the Ooze is non canonical.
Jordan
I want to say that's canonical.
Dan
So, Jordan, today we have a canonical episode to go over Alex's show.
Jordan
All right.
Dan
We're going to be talking about January 28, 2020.
Jordan
All right.
Dan
Continuing on our path.
Jordan
I like it.
Dan
I was kind of thinking about, like, maybe we speed up a little bit, but there's enough to talk about in here that I'd like to bring a focus to some of this shit.
Jordan
Excellent.
Dan
So we'll get down to business on this. But first, let's take a little moment to say hello to some new wonks.
Jordan
Ooh, that's a great idea.
Dan
So first, the prophetic future tense is a literary technique which describes future events that are so certain to happen in the past tense as if they had already happened. Commonly used in religious texts and by Alex Jones. Thank you so much. You're now a policy wonk.
Alex Jones
I'm a policy wonk.
Jordan
Thank you very much.
Dan
Thank you. Next. Bird Friendly. Wilford Brimley. Thank you so much. You're now a policy wonk.
Alex Jones
I'm a policy wonk.
Jordan
Thank you very much.
Dan
Thank you. Is that a vocal warmup?
Jordan
No idea.
Dan
Next. Merry Christmas, Anne. Congrats on making it through the back catalog. Thank you so much. You're now a policy wonk.
Alex Jones
I'm a policy wonk.
Jordan
Thank you very much.
Dan
Thank you. And we got to take the credit in the mix, Jordan. So thank you so much to Merry, merry Christmas from Mr. Chipotle. I support these two schmucks as a gift for you because I know how shocked you'd be hearing your name yelled by Dan. Love you, Boo.
Jordan
Boo.
Dan
Thank you so much. You're not a technocrat.
Alex Jones
I'm a policy wonk. Go home to your mother and tell her you're brilliant. Someone, Someone. Sodomite sent me a bucket of poop. Daddy Shark. Jar Jar Binks has a Caribbean black accent. He's a loser. Little, little kitty baby. I don't want to hate black people. I renounce Jesus Christ.
Dan
Thank you so much.
Jordan
Yes. Thank you very much.
Dan
So there's a lot going on in the world.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
There's a ton happening.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
And you know, a lot of that you don't get a sense of from Alex's show. He's pretty happy about how mean Tom holman is.
Jordan
Sure. 20 out of 10.
Dan
He loves Elon Musk.
Jordan
200 out of 500.
Dan
Lot of the specifics get kind of lost.
Jordan
Yeah, I can imagine.
Dan
A lot of the news stories end up not getting covered while Alex rants about nothingness.
Jordan
Strange. Strange choice of life to lead, but okay.
Dan
Well, I mean, our last episode, a fair amount of time was taken up with Wernher von Braun, prophesied the coming of Elon Musk, who will bring us to Mars.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Seems like a waste of time.
Jordan
That does feel like something that we could just dispense with entirely.
Dan
It almost feels a little bit like I've got to fill this time with dark journalist.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
So this is what we're going to talk about.
Jordan
What else are you going to talk about with dark Journalist?
Dan
I just wouldn't talk to him.
Jordan
I strongly support that. But I mean, if, if you're, if you're stuck in a. We gotta talk to dark journalists, might as well get to Nazi prophecy.
Dan
I guess so. So we start off here on the 28th and it's kind of just a rumination about how Trump's beating the shit out of these globalists. These globalists, they're getting busy.
Jordan
Eight days.
Alex Jones
All right, I'm gonna be very calm about this, but I am here to tell you that I have been studying constantly every facet of what Trump's doing and I can't even keep up with it. This is absolutely plotted out by incredibly smart people. I know that this broadcast and our suggestions have been absolutely taken up like mother's milk by a baby. And I am so proud of this audience of activists keeping us in attack formation through all these attacks. And Trump is just devastating the living out of the globalist. I mean it is unbelievable. And yeah, we can about this little thing or that thing, but in them whole, this is earth shaking globalist destroying, irrevocable, absolutely irrevocable to the globalist. It is incredible.
Dan
He really does not seem to care at all about swearing on air anymore. Like less than a minute into the show, he's dropping shit.
Jordan
I love it.
Dan
Well, yeah, but it is reflective of how much bullshit it is when he says, like, we're on 400 radio station. No, you're not.
Jordan
No, you absolutely are not on Twitter. You are by yourself.
Dan
Yeah, yeah, but it's, I mean, it makes his swearing. It does feel a little better now.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
You know, it doesn't feel as like 12 year old getting away with saying a curse. Boy, that actually kind of felt a little bit organic.
Jordan
Yeah, those, those early days. Those early days, whenever he would like put A fuck in there. And you're like, don't do that.
Dan
Well, I think there was too much trepidation about, like, this is actually going to be a problem with the way.
Jordan
Yeah, I'm gonna have to. I'm gonna get a phone call for saying. So it comes out all wrong.
Dan
Yeah, yeah. Now let it fly.
Jordan
Let it go. This.
Dan
So the cartel.
Jordan
Which cartel?
Dan
Great question. Who knows?
Jordan
Okay. So.
Alex Jones
Well, and his czar has said we are declaring war. And he said for the last few months, he said, as soon as we start actually shutting down the human trafficking and the fentanyl and the sex slavery, the cartels are going to try to kill federal agents and others. And when they do, we're going to come in with the military and we're going to slaughter them. And so the Mexican cartels don't understand there's any sheriff in town. They walked into their trap. They just tried to ambush down on the Texas Mexico border yesterday. Really dramatic drone footage of the Mexican cartels trying to kill the border patrol and shooting up their vehicles and then the border patrol firing back. It is dramatic. And a few days ago, they shot hikers across the border in California. Shot a mountain biker. The days of them just running around murdering everybody. And the border patrol being shot at and told not to shoot back is over. And so if Mexico really wants the Marines to invade again, you're about 2 inches away from it. And Trump's not playing games. He's looking for somebody to cross the United States so we can get back to where we were.
Jordan
I'm sorry.
Alex Jones
And that's Fortress America. And that's America expanding. I'm sorry, but my business deals.
Dan
Yeah. So this, this is what Alex's vision of peace entails.
Jordan
All right.
Dan
Hoping Mexico will give us a reason to go to war with them. Talking about Orwell is a little bit hacky in conspiracy world, so I won't call this Orwellian, but it's something. A dramatic ambush. The thing that Alex is talking about here was some people in Mexico side of the border firing shots at border patrol agents. Border patrol agents shooting one shot back and no one getting hurt. The news reports them as, quote, suspected cartel members. But I'm noticing this a lot, that there's no substantiation of the cartel connection whenever this title is used. Sure. It very well may be the case that these people are involved with the cartel, but it's also quickly becoming a catch all term that I think could get weaponized pretty easily. And I think we're seeing that.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Also Those other cases, you know, there was that we talked about. The guy who got shot. Yeah. Suspected cartel member.
Jordan
I'm gonna go ahead and say this. These days, you know, if we're talking about the Trump Border Patrol and the Trump ICE and the Trump cops, I don't think I trust what they're saying. I don't think they're trustworthy narrators anymore.
Dan
I think that there was good reason to worry before. Yeah. Always a grain of salt with cops.
Jordan
Lie, it's ok sometimes, okay, it's legal.
Dan
But now I think maybe more.
Jordan
I wouldn't trust a goddamn word any of them fucking say about goddamn anything. The sky's blue. You fucking liars. No, it's not.
Dan
I am in a position where I think I require a little bit extra proof than I. Maybe I used to.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Benefits of doubts and whatnot.
Jordan
May.
Dan
So when you talk about getting information.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
You want to have good sources.
Jordan
Absolutely.
Dan
When you're someone like Alex, who's like God's chosen warrior, God's information. Well, he would be.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
But Alex prefers to go other routes.
Jordan
Okay.
Alex Jones
We know their attacks, we know who they are, we know their organizations, we know their dark money, and we're watching their ass like a hawk. And when I say we're watching them, you're watching them. You know where I find 90% of us is.
Jordan
Don't say it.
Alex Jones
You posting under my post email. The crew brings me a lot of stuff, but I'm digging through everything. But the really good stuff comes from you. Now, on the Bill Gates thing, everybody's like, look, these are fake doctors. It's this dark money group. But I went, that's Bill Gates's group. Of course, five seconds later, yeah, I knew it was his group. So that's what we're doing.
Dan
Yeah, that is what you're doing. Dumb from Twitter.
Jordan
I can't. You know, sometimes when he says it.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
It's. It's even more shocking for him to say it cuz it's rude. We all know that's what you're doing, but the contract is you'll pretend that it's not what you're doing if you.
Dan
Have awareness of it. You should be embarrassed.
Jordan
Yeah, you should feel bad. Yeah, you should feel bad.
Dan
I just get on my show and whine about various things. People comment on my Twitter account.
Jordan
Absolutely. This makes me feel bad. Great.
Dan
So he said that he wants Fortress America.
Jordan
Yeah. That's not good.
Dan
No, it's not.
Jordan
No.
Dan
But it gets worse.
Jordan
Okay, great.
Dan
Yeah.
Alex Jones
And then some are saying, well, this new Fortress America thing. Yeah, it's strong. And yeah, Trump's for real. He's taking over, but he's kind of building his own new thing. Scott Ritter, like, criticizes Trump and then says, but he supports it. But Scott's smart. He knows that this is the classic American system. I mean, Manifest Destiny and expansion, you're either expanding or you're dying. Instead, we were being cut up and turned into a third world hellhole and becoming globalists footstool. So I'm not for an American empire of military. I am for an American empire of ideas and culture and industry. And then everybody's just going to want to join us. But we've got to check the country, we got to check the system, we got to, you know, make alliances and things. And of course we need to get Greenland.
Jordan
I'm sorry.
Alex Jones
And of course we need to have nation to nation agreements not through the un so this is not the new world Order the globalists wanted. It's the Monroe Doctrine.
Dan
This is so goddamn stupid coming out of Alex's mouth. He wants to bring back the Monroe Doctrine. Is he concerned that France is colonizing someplace in the Western Hemisphere and that needs to be stopped? I mean, Alex is just throwing spaghetti at the wall here. And none of this should be taken too seriously. He just wants to live in a right wing dictatorship because he's convinced himself that he'll be free of the consequences of living in a right wing dictatorship because he's a crazy right wing dude who's white and Christian. Alex seems to be pretending that countries don't have one on one relations in addition to the larger multilateral agreements in those bodies that exist in the world. That's stupid. And Trump isn't gonna bring back having one on one agreements with other countries. He's gonna normalize relations between the US and hostile foreign governments like Russia and North Korea against the wishes of the international community and longstanding US Policy. The one on one relations are going to be things like him trying to make condos in North Korea, not negotiating a real peace in some country that's in conflict. This is all pretty much the level of a farce. And someone who was sold on Alex's infowars message like 15 years ago should be horrified by this. The guy who doesn't trust the federal government to regulate highways is secretly in favor of Manifest Destiny. These are the kinds of moments that should make it blatantly clear to anyone listening to him that he never believed that shit that he preached to begin with. It was all just the best Way to Trojan Horse his real beliefs to a wider audience. Also, why isn't he mad about Scott Ritter being a sex offender? Shouldn't he be more concerned about that than the little difference that they have about Fortress America? I mean, shouldn't he be screaming about how he's a demon or something?
Jordan
I, I'm surprised. One, he's not caught up in a very effective task force that I'm hearing about from Tom Homan that should have handled one of those problems, should have handled the other. And two, so, so we're good with Manifest Destiny and we need Greenland now. Now I'm going to just say from, from my American perspective, that means we're either going to make Greenland part of America, thus increasing the number of people who we call Americans. I, I mean, that's like reverse immigration, is that we immigrated on top of you, which is an interesting problem to have. And then second. Or if we're not going to make the mistake that it's taxation without representation.
Dan
Alex thinks people from Greenland are white.
Jordan
Right. I.
Dan
He considers them white.
Jordan
I mean, I understand the concept, why it's okay, but eventually it will very much be not okay. Right.
Dan
I mean, nothing, nothing they want is ever okay.
Jordan
Yeah, that's fair.
Dan
Like all their stupid plans eventually end up some terrible colonized Mexico.
Jordan
Hahaha. You can't immigrate to us. We immigrated to you.
Dan
It's a, it's all just a bunch of nonsense.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And I think, I just think it's important as we're seeing the, like, the laying out of the beginning of Trump's second term to see these things that are direct invalidations of like, you cannot possibly be someone who believes the stuff that Alex's career is built on and act this way. Those beliefs have to have been fake. And I think that there's value in pointing this out. Not in like a Haha, you're a hypocrite kind of way, but in an ill, illustrative way that can be helpful when you run into the next Alex Jones.
Jordan
Exactly.
Dan
Who's trying to sell you on some kind of idea about liberty and all this shit, when really what they want is a very cruel, harsh Monroe Doctrine.
Jordan
Yeah, yeah, it is, it is ultimately like we should be learning from this past 30 years exactly what the liars are doing, you know?
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
You should know where they're lying and.
Dan
That people are still susceptible.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Like it's, it's, it, it's, it's an issue that we can have a lot of insight into and like understand how the Mechanics of this works, but it is still very dangerous. People still engage in this.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
So Alex rambles about how thrilled he is about how the Border Patrol is going to kill a bunch of people.
Jordan
Great, that sounds right.
Alex Jones
So now they have again and again tried to kill the Border Patrol and killed some in cases. And so you're going to have a lot of Mexican drug cartel people that are going to start getting killed and their bosses are going to get killed. And so the Mexican drug cartels have had a free hand down there, bullying their people and others that come through there. And I'm gonna tell you, they're gonna be pushing daisies up real fast. So the army's gonna be killing them already are. The marines are going to be killing them already are.
Dan
I'm sorry.
Alex Jones
Turn loose other groups and you're dead. So enjoy hundreds of thousands of Americans killed by fentanyl supplied by the communist Chinese, the Mexican drug cartels. You're dead, dead, dead.
Dan
Alex says that they've killed Border Patrol officers, then mutters in cases because he's trying to combine stories that he can't actually combine. There was the story about a couple of guys shooting over the border where no one got hurt. And then there was the separate story from a little bit back about the Border Patrol agent who was killed in Vermont. That has nothing to do with the border of Mexico. But Alex wants to superimpose that death onto this story so he can get the most benefit from it. It's very clear what Alex is doing here, which is cheering on the killing of immigrants by the U.S. military based on literally everything he's ever pretended to believe. Alex shouldn't be in favor of this. But again, the principles were a costume. It's clips like this that highlight why it's very important how loose the term cartel member has gotten with the right wing media and politicians. If Alex believes that it's appropriate for soldiers and Marines to kill cartel members, what level of evidence does he require to accept that someone the military kills was actually in the cartel? He shouldn't believe the military is right to kill them, even if they are in the cartel. But leaving that aside, if Alex makes that okay, he's essentially saying that the military can kill whoever they want so long as they tell him that they were in the cartel. This bloodthirsty right wing kind of mentality, this was what he was supposed to exist in opposition to in the days of 911 with the term terrorist. Like this game is something that he presented himself as the opposite of the other side of. Yeah, the deaths of people in other countries and the violation of liberties of people here were hand waved away by people saying that they were terrorists or suspected terrorists. Alex knows all of this. His career has spanned through that time and he's been critical of how the police state tried to excuse their bad actions by just saying terrorist. He knows exactly what he's doing. He just thinks that he's close to power now. Whereas he knew that George Bush was too ambivalent about bringing back segregation and they could never really work together. Yeah, that's the difference.
Jordan
Basically.
Dan
If Trump had been around then and he felt like another George Wallace type was possible, he would have gone all in on terrorist. Probably labeling after 9 11.
Jordan
Yeah. I mean, yeah, it was the easiest thing for him to do in the world. To be like, see, Obama bombed another wedding and then he called him terrorists. That's the easiest thing to do in the world if you're Alex Jones.
Dan
Which is why he did it.
Jordan
Which is why he did it. But if you don't actually give a fuck, then you're lying. You're a lying piece of shit who just wants to, who just doesn't like that. It's the wrong brown people, I guess.
Dan
Sure. And you, you recognize the power of the game, the alienation, the othering, the term being so vague as to like and scary that you can justify cartel, terrorist.
Jordan
Cartel cuts people's heads off.
Dan
True.
Jordan
Just like the terrorists do.
Dan
Right?
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
So do you know the power of manipulatively and abusively using that language to such a broad population?
Jordan
Fucking everybody should at this point.
Dan
Right. And Alex's complaint when he was talking about like Obama justifying attacks or whatever by saying that they're suspected terrorists or whatever, he wasn't concerned with the actual behavior.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
He was just mad that the side he's opposed to is using a tactic that he knows is powerful right now. He's perfectly happy to use the same tactics.
Jordan
Course.
Dan
Because he's a piece of shit.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Well, anyway, if you have fentanyl, Trump gonna kill you. Trump's just straight up, that seems like.
Jordan
Not the way to solve a problem.
Dan
Well, the fentanyl's in a dead person's hand now.
Jordan
Okay.
Alex Jones
Now the big cartel that runs Puerto Vallarta and you know is out of there that one years ago came out, has been killing any of their members that are caught selling fentanyl because they knew Trump was coming back and they been in the news what said Trump's gonna probably end up back in and he's gonna kill us. We've been told that by him through the. Through intermediaries, but Trump's been behind the scenes saying, when I get back in, anybody caught with Fentanyl, you're dead. And I mean the leadership, all your sons, dead. We're gonna kill you. All right, we're. Come back and play the clips. Stay with me.
Dan
This doesn't seem like a tenable position for Alex to have. I give. All you need for the US President to be justified in sending the military in to kill you and your family is that you're somewhat connected to a drug ring. Why should Alex have been against the war in Afghanistan? The low bar for what he'll accept as a good cause for the US to use deadly military force. It's just unsustainable. There's no war that he couldn't support given this level like this, this type of celebration of killing. We're going to kill your children. What? I mean, what if the children don't want to be a part of the drug game?
Jordan
I think what he was trying to say was that in preparation for Trump murdering families, the cartel leaders are already murdering families of their own, if I understand that correctly. Well, because they don't want to get people caught with fentanyl, because Trump is.
Dan
Going to kill him and their families.
Jordan
Yeah. So then they killed him and their families. Is that what I'm to understand from Alex?
Dan
Sure. Yeah. I don't know. I think he just likes violent fantasies.
Jordan
Yeah, I think that's probably true.
Dan
So, look, he likes violent fantasies, right? But you know what? He doesn't like protesters. He does not like people exercising their First Amendment rights.
Jordan
Right, right, right, right.
Dan
So he, he talks about that as it relates to immigration issues.
Jordan
Great.
Dan
And then he gets lost thinking about a new Marvel movie that'll happen.
Alex Jones
That'll happen in Dallas. We've seen the worst with the illegal aliens waving their Mexican flags now tackling and beating up Trump supporters and taking away their American flags and stomping on them. Boy, these folks really love America, don't they? Now, obviously, the vast majority of Hispanics that come here want to be America, and they're great people. And there's record numbers of Hispanic Americans that voted for Trump. They are just as disgusted or probably more so by these people than other Americans are. But here's the thing. America is not living on its knees anymore, and we're not taking it anymore. And you got all the leftist scum and antifa out there with them as well. And then it's saying about, oh, we're Native Americans. So we can be wherever we want. That's all taught by the big foundations, by the un, by the globalists. Want to break this country up, by the way, I'll get to this. Coming up, Disney's new Captain America and the new black Captain American just decided to set his box office prospects on fire. You know, America would love a black Captain America. And he was the former, you know, buddy of the white Captain America.
Jordan
What are we doing here?
Alex Jones
Well, now, the leftist just said, oh, Captain America has nothing to do with America. That's a quote. I'll play the video now. Have you ever heard more double speak? Well, yeah. Carrie last year repeatedly said, we got to cut off half the farming in the world. We got to reduce farming by half to cut emissions or people will starve. We've got to cut food off or people will starve. And now Bill Gates officially says trees are bad for the Earth. They put off carbon. Cut them down, too.
Dan
So Kerry didn't say that we need to reduce farming or starve. And Bill Gates didn't say trees are bad.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
He invested in a company that works to thin out densely forested areas in California. Something that Alex is supposed to be in favor of in terms of fighting forest fires.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Alex doesn't even know what Gates is doing because he's just skimmed a headline or saw a tweet. Who gives a shit?
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Also, consider me just taken completely off guard by the revelation that Alex doesn't like a black Captain America.
Jordan
I'm flabbergasted. I'm flabbergasted.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Wow.
Jordan
Wow.
Dan
It's divisive.
Jordan
It would be. It would be more fun if it was Captain America.
Dan
Kkk.
Jordan
That would have been great.
Dan
It's fascinating because Alex is like a character in. In, like, Falcon and the Winter Soldier.
Jordan
Yep, yep, yep. We can't have a black Captain America. Oh, that's. It's interesting that you would say that. Like the people in the movie.
Dan
Yeah, Alex complains about that a little more.
Jordan
Makes sense.
Alex Jones
So Captain America should not represent Captain. A black represent America. Captain America has nothing to do with America. That'd be like saying the NFL has nothing to do with the National Football League. Or Jesus has nothing to do with Christianity. And you're like, that's so ridiculous. Everything they do, it's. It's psyop people. Oh, put that back up. I didn't even know about that. Captain America. Brave New World alternative trailer includes new footage after removing assassination attempt. Oh, give me that article.
Dan
Oh, that'll be exciting to hear. About that'll be great. And probably have a bunch of important data points about God's plan against the devil. So Anthony Mackey was speaking at a promotional event in Rome and explained that quote to me. Captain America represents a lot of different things, and I don't think the term America should be one of those representations. It's about a man who keeps his word, who has honor, dignity and integrity. Someone who's trustworthy and dependable. There are two big points here. The first is the very obvious fact that he was in Rome and was trying to sell the movie to a crowd in Italy.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
If all you see when you look at Captain America is America, then the international audience is never really going to take an interest in that character. And if you're trying to sell a movie, obviously you would want to make it more relatable.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
The second thing is that Mackie, what he's getting at is what makes Captain America Captain America. When he thinks of the character, he thinks of the traits that the character embodies as opposed to the flag he's decked out in. The reason Steve Rogers was chosen to be Captain America and the reason Sam Wilson is chosen to be his successor is because they embody those characteristics which the powers that be want to make synonymous with America. A ton of the media surrounding Captain America has to do with the idea that the shield doesn't make him a superhero. It's those honorable qualities. It's really basic in the text. And Alex won't engage with media that challenges his very dumb and rigid worldview at all. And I find it super funny.
Jordan
Yeah, yeah. I'm pretty sure. Now, I could be wrong, but in literally every Captain America movie, one of the biggest things that Captain America does is disregard everything that the American government says. Because the American government does not represent America.
Dan
Right.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
He was against the.
Jordan
He's against America. Yeah.
Dan
He's against America or the registration of.
Jordan
Government because the government is fucking hydra in the other one. So you can't trust the government. But America is its people as embodied by the person of Captain America.
Alex Jones
Right.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Yeah. I'm bewildered by Alex's to not understand.
Jordan
That Captain America is not a jingoistic character by definition. Because it is more interesting for it not to be a jingoistic character.
Dan
Right.
Jordan
It's ridiculous.
Dan
Yeah. And that he just seems to embody a dumb sort of villainous side character in the movies themselves.
Jordan
Yeah, yeah.
Dan
Like he. It's life imitating art in some way. Because he's so dumb.
Jordan
Yep, yep.
Dan
It's fun.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
So did you know that you can steal in California?
Jordan
Steal what?
Dan
Anything.
Alex Jones
Okay, that's an assault on the nation. Just like defunding the police or defunding the fire departments. What do you think's going to happen? The breakdown of society. California passes a law, you can steal up to $2,000 a day from any store you want and no one can stop you.
Dan
You.
Alex Jones
And then they rob the stores and half of them close.
Jordan
Sounds true to me.
Alex Jones
What type of government says you can rob $2,000 a day per store?
Jordan
A smart one.
Alex Jones
And then they come in some, you know, family owned little convenience store and they go behind the lottery tickets, the cigarettes, and the families will start begging. You've seen the videos. Indians and others, they'll come arrest them when they buy back. Oh, white store owners do it. They really get in trouble, but. And they go, please, I don't have money, I don't have insurance. You can't. And the person just shoveling cigarettes and lottery tickets and, you know, into the bag. And then finally the stop owners just start beating them up. And then, oh, the Soros. DAs have them indicted. Just like Daniel Penny.
Dan
So that's a fun fantasy Alex just played out. But Daniel Penny wasn't a store owner. He was a dude who killed a guy on a train and was found not guilty of criminally negligent homicide. Sure, I don't know what kind of point Alex thinks he's making by bringing him up. Also, just for any of our non California listeners, this isn't true. And for our California listeners, don't do this now.
Jordan
Do it.
Dan
Don't steal $2,000 worth of stuff from the store.
Jordan
Count it up.
Dan
This is not a get rich quick scheme. Run the register.
Jordan
Read it through the register so you don't wind up stealing more than 2,000. You'd have to be a fool not to do that.
Dan
In 2014, the citizens of California voted in favor of Prop 47, which made crimes like shoplifting or receiving stolen property a misdemeanor instead of a felony when the crime was nonviolent and the amount stolen was under $950. Gavin Newsom didn't do some kind of like, silly crime loving dictator move here. It was a ballot measure. Then in 2024, there was another ballot measure, Prop 36, which changed some of this, making repeat shoplifters face felony charges even if their theft was stuff less than $950 in value. So in the real world, California made things tougher on shoplifters in 2024. But Alex is reporting the Opposite. Because he's a liar.
Alex Jones
Right.
Dan
Alex would also probably be horrified to learn that in Texas, it's a misdemeanor to steal stuff worth less than $2,500.
Jordan
Oh, my God.
Dan
So it's basically fine.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
You could steal even more stuff in Texas.
Jordan
That's not even a penalty.
Dan
Yeah. This dude has to be so embarrassed to say shit like this. The only way you could think that it's legal to steal whatever you want up to a certain value is if you literally have never been in public before or you think the people you're talking to are complete idiots who maybe have never been in public themselves. You have to be a special kind of stupid, too, to think people in this situation like this imagined scenario that you have, you think that they would steal lottery tickets.
Jordan
Yeah. That would be insane.
Dan
A lot of stuff like, you know, the Powerball, that's printed off by the cashiers, so it's difficult to steal. But if you're just talking about scratch off tickets, all of those are serial numbered, so they're super easy to report as stolen.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
If you won any big amount, you'd pretty much guarantee that you get arrested when you tried to cash it in.
Jordan
Ridiculous. Ridiculous.
Dan
I've worked in gas stations before, and they keep pretty close logs on those things. Because if you didn't, anyone who worked at a gas station or sold scratch off tickets would have a free pass to print money.
Jordan
Pretty crazy.
Dan
Most criminals understand this and they tend to stay away from lotto related stuff because it involves the state.
Jordan
Yeah. Yeah. Yes. A ton of lotteries are state owned. Like, it's. What are you talking about?
Dan
Yeah, the regulation of that. That kind of shit is. Is criminals understand if you're gonna steal.
Jordan
From the state, you don't do it in a way that might fail. Just purely based on luck.
Dan
Yeah, that's absurd. The luckier you get, the more fucked you are.
Jordan
I mean, absurd.
Dan
The. I mean. So I worked at a gas station when I was like 18.
Jordan
Mm.
Dan
And of course, because I was stupid, smoked a lot of weed, didn't have a lot of experience in life. I thought, legit. Okay, I have a shift. I can just keep scratching off tickets until I pay back what I have scratched.
Jordan
Oh, my God.
Dan
And come out ahead at the end.
Jordan
Oh, my God.
Dan
I didn't do this.
Jordan
Oh, I got you that you were thinking, right?
Dan
Until I learned about how tickets are handled and all that shit. Because otherwise you could do that, I guess. And you would usually break even and maybe hit something big.
Jordan
Okay.
Dan
You could I mean, I'm.
Jordan
I don't know what the math is on scratch off lottery tickets.
Dan
Given unlimited tickets, eventually it would even out. Yeah.
Jordan
Okay.
Dan
Yeah. The reason that it doesn't even out for you is because you're not buying enough of them.
Jordan
I feel like it's. I feel like the deck is stacked against you. Isn't that. The idea of lotteries is ever so slightly. Okay, but give it off the top.
Dan
But you, like, let's say you scratch off 3,000 tickets, all right, in there, you win a 5,000.
Jordan
Okay.
Dan
All right, $5,000 ticket, right. You're 2,000 ahead. If there were $1 ticket.
Jordan
Okay, that's fair. That's fair.
Dan
Like it's. Yeah, that can happen.
Jordan
And like, let's go put $3,000 into what's not.
Dan
Anyway, criminals understand. Criminals do understand that, but it's tough. It's tough owning a store in California.
Jordan
I like the idea of somebody going over the register and just shoveling packs of cigarettes. Like, who's. If you were walking by and somebody was doing that, you'd be like, hey, man, that's, that's wrong. Just don't do that. I'm pro. People stealing shit most of the time, but that's too much.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
Get out of here.
Dan
Yeah. Especially if it's like a mom and pop.
Jordan
Yeah. What are you doing?
Dan
Don't steal their cigs.
Jordan
Rude.
Dan
So it's tough. It's tough out there for shop owners in California.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
And they can't even look up to Captain America.
Alex Jones
Can you imagine owning a store in California or other states where they let people rob and someone comes in when, when, when, when, when you're living on tiny margins in your little gas station, you, you, you deal with armed robberies, homeless, everything. And I know a lot of these store owners and, you know, maybe the whole family that works there is all together, you know, dividing up $300,000 a year between eight, nine people that work there? So they're all making like 30, 40, 50, 60 grand a year a piece. They're working long hours. And then you people come in and just rob you of your stuff, and then you go bankrupt and close. That's George Soros.
Jordan
Is that George Soros.
Alex Jones
To destroy their little towns in Germany with 50 something people or a hundred people, little tiny villages, and they'll dump 500, a thousand Muslim men on them and they complain, they arrest you for being hateful. That's war against the West. We can't take it anymore. And then we're supposed to be so Embarrassed about being American, that, oh well, Captain America shouldn't have anything to do with America. I mean, come on. I mean, next you're gonna say that Terry Bradshaw has something to do with the Steelers. I mean, that's ridiculous. I don't think the New England Patriots should have anything to do in history with Tom Brady. I mean, that's come and come on.
Dan
So this is what happens when people fake populism. You end up with this level of pretend concern about these store owners, which you're just faking in order to disguise your racism and xenophobia. So I don't care. Incidentally, Chris Evans said almost identical things about the character of Captain America. No. Got mad then.
Jordan
Course he did.
Dan
That's weird.
Jordan
It is strange.
Dan
Also, Alex's brain cannot make analogies. Saying that Captain America isn't just about America isn't like saying that Terry Bradshaw has nothing to do with the Steelers. It would be like saying that Terry Bradshaw has nothing to do with Bradshaw, which is a name that's derived from the old English for broad thickets. His name would have to be Terry Steelers in order for him. Alex. To make this.
Jordan
That would make more sense. Yeah.
Dan
The point about the Patriots is just as bad, but in the opposite direction. They would be need to be called the Brady's in order for this analogy to make sense with Tom Brady.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
It's fine if Alex wants to say that he doesn't like how people try to sell movies to foreign audiences and it offends his sense of patriotism, but it's obvious that that's not what this is about. But he could make that argument if that was his actual complaint.
Jordan
Yeah, yeah, but it's not. Also, once again, not understanding the very concept of an individual in response to a government's action, saying you shouldn't trust the government. They do not have your best interests in mind. I feel like that should be a message that Alex is. Bro.
Dan
He's not very thoughtful.
Jordan
I feel like that might be true.
Dan
Ye. Yep. So he plays a clip of some protesters, some immigration protesters, people who think.
Jordan
That the government has their best interests in mind.
Dan
He says something shocking.
Jordan
Okay.
Alex Jones
All right, here's some of the clips together. Radio listeners, illegal aliens waving Mexican flags, attacking people and beating them up that have American flags and stealing the American flag and stomping on it and throwing it. Just really friendly stuff. I mean, if you went Mexico and grabbed somebody at a Mexican parade and grabbed their flag, you'd get beat to death. And you pretty much should. I mean, you know, because they Got a little pride in themselves. What? I'm so sick of taking this.
Dan
So I guess he's not so cool with free speech and seems very protective of flags. If Alex thinks that the police should be protestors to death for desecrating the flag, then he doesn't care at all about the Constitution or his audience should eat him. You know, that's where we're at.
Jordan
Yeah. That's absurd.
Dan
He can sidestep that a little bit by saying that the police shouldn't do the beating, but another citizen should be entitled to beat these protesters to death for desecrating the flag and waving another flag. You get the sense that Alex wouldn't defend that position, though, across the board. Like, let's say if, I don't know, someone were to get beat up for waving a Confederate flag.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
I don't think that he might justify that.
Jordan
He might have a different point of view on that.
Dan
Yeah, he would. He wouldn't.
Jordan
That would be hurting somebody's history and their. Their, like, I suppose, their heritage. Some. Somebody who cared about where they were from, who cared about their past, who cared about the.
Dan
Probably defend that person a little.
Jordan
Yeah, yeah.
Dan
Traditionally do that.
Jordan
Yeah. Yeah. Huh. Weird how that works.
Dan
Yeah. These standards are all over the place.
Jordan
It does feel like there is not a single standard.
Dan
Except for anger.
Jordan
Yeah. Other. Yeah.
Dan
So Alex is talking about Trump's great negotiation skills.
Jordan
Interesting.
Dan
With foreign leaders.
Jordan
Okay.
Dan
And he says something that I think were there to be a God, lightning should have struck him.
Jordan
Okay.
Alex Jones
Trump is sending Marco Rubio, the Secretary of State, down to El Salvador. And Bukele Kelly has said that yet he's looking to make a deal with the United States to let them bring none El Salvadorans there. And that totally freaks out all the international drug gangs and the rest of them because. Okay, you make a deal with us and pay us, we'll just keep them in our giant prisons. That, of course, will shut him off. He's totally shut the crime off there. So they're going to turn that nice little prison planet for him.
Dan
I want to be clear. Alex knows he's endorsing and pushing for everything he's pretended to stand against his entire career. He's celebrating Trump negotiating with the President of El Salvador to ship people to that country so El Salvador can lock them up there for a price. And Alex literally calls it a prison planet now. That's the name of his website. Yep. That's his branding that he's now applying to this thing that he supports. And that's because he always Supported it. After World War II, people who supported the Nazi party really wanted to downplay how much they knew that what they were doing was wrong. Things like this, where Alex supports creating a prison planet in El Salvador for people that Trump deports, that should make clear to anyone looking back on this time that Alex Jones 100% knows that what he's supporting is wrong. He conceptually understands that treating people like this is wrong. But he also knows that all of the cultural groups that he's a member of won't be subjected to this treatment. So he doesn't care. It was always about white Christian identity. There's just no reason to pretend anymore.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
So you can say I want to send these people to a prison planet.
Jordan
Yep. I mean, and that's, that's even if you wanted to be like, no, this is a smart thing to do. I, I mean, based on his own arguments about the cartels and shit like that, I would probably say that if you were going to take a bunch of people who have no connection to a place, no contacts at that place and no amount of money to take care of themselves at that place, you have essentially given me a draft list of people who are going to join the cartels because they need so much fucking money. It's absurd to think it's possible there.
Dan
Could be that kind of unintended consequence.
Jordan
It would be easy. It's the easiest. Oh, hey, do you hate America? Surprise, buddy. You are on a team.
Dan
And it makes it a lot easier to really not like America. When something that Captain America, Alex Jones is cheering on is a for profit incarceration and extraordinary rendition type program like Alex lived through this after the Iraq war. And during the Iraq war after 9, 11, there were detention centers in third party countries. That's a huge shame on the United States record. And one of the reasons that Alex was able to gain as much traction with his oh fuck the government kind of stuff is because the government did do things like that. And you could rightly think that he cared, but he doesn't. No, he does not care.
Jordan
No, you, you know, you, there's no way not to know on account of you are making the decision you are making is evidence that you know. Because if you say, aha, we can't have this prison in America, it's against the law. Well then the answer to that is you don't get to have that prison.
Dan
Not what if you will just pay.
Jordan
We'Ll pay somebody in another country for what. No, you're wrong. Otherwise it would be legal here. It's you who made it legal or illegal.
Dan
Seems like there'd be a nice incentive to keep those prisons full, too.
Jordan
I mean, absolutely insane.
Dan
Oh, well.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
So anyway, Alex goes to the first press conference that the press person is doing.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
And I don't care.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
She does say that the New Jersey drones weren't aliens.
Jordan
That's nice.
Dan
Yep.
Jordan
Were they? Were they? I mean, I know they were suspected aliens for quite some time, but everybody was just saying, don't worry about it.
Dan
They were totally cool.
Jordan
Okay.
Dan
Don't worry.
Jordan
Don't worry about it.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
Okay.
Dan
Some of it's like people like drones.
Jordan
All right, I'm not gonna worry about it then.
Dan
Yeah. So there's one big story that Alex does touch on through this episode, and it's that Trump is firing a bunch of inspector generals.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
And he keeps trying to cover this by not covering it and blurring the lines of what is actually going on.
Jordan
Okay.
Alex Jones
So I said over and over again, it's a no brainer. It's not like I'm saying something really not known. But Trump must immediately remove the FBI director. Well, he quit before that. He must immediately put him people into all the key agencies. He must immediately fire all the globalist U.S. attorneys. He must immediately fire all these little illegal. And turn out it was illegal. Jack Smith's was clearly not constitutional. And then, and then get rid of these crooks. And that's his right to fire whoever he wants. You got pencil neck Adam Schiff? I got the clip here. You don't want to hear from him, but I'll show you the transcript. You know, oh, this is illegal. He's just stuttering because it's not. Reagan fired U.S. attorneys. Clinton fired 98 of the hundred ninety eight percent. Obama half of them. On and on and on. And so Trump's doing what must be done.
Dan
On this episode, Alex is trying to cover the story of Trump firing inspector generals or inspectors general. Alex is attempting to rationalize that this is a good and just thing for Trump to do. And the way he's arguing that is by saying that past presidents have fired U.S. attorneys and Trump was right to fire Jack Smith, who was a special prosecutor. That's all good and well, but Alex is comparing apples and oranges here. Inspectors general are not the same thing as U.S. attorneys or a special prosecutor. They exist specifically to be independent oversight entities within government agencies. They're appointed by the President, but their role is meant to be strictly non political. In essence, they serve as a safeguard to make sure the President can't just exploit government departments for their own purposes. This is not like Trump replacing US Attorneys, which is a fairly common thing the presidents can do in a new administration. This should be seen as a serious threat that Trump is making to the foundation of oversight within government agencies by attempting to place loyalists in positions that are meant to be watchdogs. The move is very clearly illegal, and even Lindsey Graham acknowledged that and said, quote, just tell them you need to follow the law next time. Sure sounds like some members of Congress don't give a shit about the law. And, yeah, so, I mean, it's just blatantly illegal and horrific.
Jordan
I mean, yeah, but, you know, it's what you expect. It's, it's, it's just. It's just a thing where there is no legal or illegal. There's just who gets. Who gets laws enforced on them. That's kind of it.
Dan
And it's really, really sad to see somebody who is, you know, Lindsey Graham's. You. You. You are the person who should be saying that you can't do this. Don't. Don't just kind of meh. I mean, I can't do anything.
Jordan
But, I mean, the problem. The problem I have for these people is that this is their crowning achievement and they don't even get to enjoy it. I don't understand. If I'm like Mitch McConnell or Lindsey Graham, I am crowing. I lied to all of you, you dumb fucks. Surprise. We own everything now. How is that not at least something you enjoy?
Dan
I am now a duke.
Jordan
Right. Like, just enjoy it. It would make me feel better to know that they're like, yeah, of course. This was our plan. We did this. Thank you. There's nothing you can do about it. All of you are losers. Like, that would be great.
Dan
I think that they're pretty concerned that that would cause a violent response.
Jordan
From whom? They're the ones who have the military pointed towards the cartels or whatever, I guess.
Dan
Sure, Yeah. I don't know. So, anyway, this is the rationalization and the justification that Alex is making for the firing of these inspectors general.
Jordan
Sure, sure, sure.
Dan
And he has one other rationale, too.
Alex Jones
So here's a report I put out last night. This is Trump's most devastating move against the globalist deep state, and it's removing them. Sorry, Democrats. There's precedent. Obama fired inspector general in 2009.
Dan
So this is what Alex seems to think. Is this slam dunk for defending Trump, that Obama fired an inspector general in 2009. When you hear an example like this, your Mind should ask for details. What about these situations might be similar and what might be different. By figuring out those elements, you can parse out whether or not Alex's argument holds any water. The thing that Alex is trying to justify is that within his first week in office, Trump has fired, like, 17 inspector generals, including those in the EPA, Health and Human Services, the Veterans Affairs, State Department, and the Department of Defense. No concrete reason was given for the firings, and eight of these people have filed a lawsuit against the government because their firings were clearly illegal.
Alex Jones
Right.
Dan
According to the Inspector General act of 1978 and updates in the Securing Inspector General's act of 2022, there are steps that you have to take in order to remove an ig, because if there weren't, then the president or government official would have a really easy time covering up corruption. Yeah, you just get rid of people who are looking into you.
Jordan
That's why Nixon was trying to fire everybody until somebody would fire people.
Dan
Yeah, yeah. The law says that the president has to tell Congress 30 days prior to the date of an intended termination of an inspector general, and they need to provide a thorough explanation with, quote, detailed and case specific reasons for the firing. Unsurprisingly, Trump did not follow that law.
Jordan
What?
Dan
Conversely, in 2009, President Obama specifically decided to remove one inspector general that he'd lost confidence in. This was the IG for the Corporation for National and Community Service, Gerald Walpole. He was put on notice 30 days in advance, as was Congress. Congress received letters from the Board of directors of the CNCs who were supportive of Obama's decision and said, quote, over an extended period of time, we observed how Gerald Walpin's effectiveness as inspector general significantly diminished. Even though this followed the rules of how a president can excuse an ig, Walpin still sued the government and it was fully litigated, and he lost. Looking at the basic situations here, you can easily see that these are not comparable, but Alex needs to make them seem the same because he'll do whatever he has to do to run defense for Trump's actions. There's an extra layer of manipulation that's going on here, which goes like this. Alex would call Obama removing this inspector general an act of a tyrant. He definitely would.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
But he's using it as an argument for why Trump removing IGs isn't the act of a tyrant.
Jordan
Right, Right.
Dan
At least that's what the argument is supposed to look like. In reality, the argument Alex is making is that removing inspector generals is the act of a tyrant, but that Obama did it. So Trump should be able to too.
Jordan
Our tyrant gets to do it if your tyrant gets to do it.
Dan
Exactly. It's meant to look like an argument appealing to the Constitution or principle, but that's really just a mask on. I have made this look like tyranny. So I can do it now too.
Jordan
Yeah, no, it's an interesting. I think it's an interesting side effect of, of the painting Obama as a tyrant that I don't think they knew was going to happen insofar as it made it so. Oh, well, now our tyrant can do whatever he wants because it's not Obama.
Dan
I think that maybe that is more conscious than you imagine that's possible. I mean, there's a reason that the people in the John Birch Society were running around talking about Eisenhower being a commie.
Jordan
Sure. You know. Right. But I don't, I mean, I don't know if they meant to, to like, I don't know if they knew that people would catch on quite so quickly with being like, yeah, tyrants are cool as long as they're not Obama kind of thing.
Dan
You know, it's interesting, I think that there is a trend within that extreme right wing ideology.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
That is make your enemy the devil and then you can do devil and.
Jordan
Then you can be the devil. Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Dan
You can be just a little.
Jordan
That's, that's every politic. That's. That's politics. That's politics.
Dan
It's more. I think it's a problem that it does exist universally, but more in that right wing JBS lineage than others.
Jordan
Yeah, but that's ironically. Exactly what we're talking about is that by them being more of it, it allows it for other people.
Dan
Yeah, maybe. So Alex talks a little bit about NGOs that are taking over the government.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
And this, this I thought was, was wild.
Alex Jones
Now let me get to the real key here. Because it's not enough to fire the operatives in the government. You got to cut their money off, which he's doing. But you also have to expose these people. So this next thing that ties into this, I'm an expert on, on. And Anthony Sutton was the head U.S. archivist for more than 30 years, the U.S. senate. He ran the intel for Senator Frank Church's committee hearings that were the biggest exposure of the Deep State in history. It's about to get bigger with Kash Patel. But he wrote five, at least five books that I read off of those documents. And I was able to talk to him quite a bit, but he was too old. He said, but he said he was too old to come on. But he would, he listened to the show. The point was, is that he's where we learned all this. And there was other knowledge as well. But around 1900, the big banks and the robber barons, JP Morgan and, and John D. Rockefeller were public about it then. They were in the news saying Americans are too informed, they're too educated. We've got to find out a way to take over society. So they created tax free foundations to get around the Chairman Antitrust Act, Bill Gates just follow suit with his so called, you know, non profit that makes even more money unless you buy off government's regulatory systems. And they get hundreds of billions conservatively a year of tax money. And then whether it's brainwashing kids or transgenderism or open borders or chipping in migrants, that's where the money comes from. The government to the tax free foundations, to the nonprofits, to the NGOs and they buy out the universities and the churches and the, you know, 2.6 billion to the Catholic Church in four years to smuggle kids in. That's come out not, not hundreds of millions. 2.6, 2.3. I showed the article yesterday, so a.
Dan
Lot of the stuff that Alex says in that clip is just stupid and wrong. But before I go any further, I want to indicate where there is the slightest tiny bit of agreement that I have with Alex.
Jordan
Okay.
Dan
In the way that our economy and system are set up, the super rich are able to use foundations and charities to mask and redirect massive amounts of their wealth total. The system is very exploitable and we've seen how it functions in terms of aiding the already very rich in hoarding resources. It's an untenable system and it needs to be changed. Ideally in a way that doesn't hurt legitimate philanthropy, but stops massive corporations and billionaires from exploiting loopholes. And that is where our agreement ends. The rest of this shit is just John Birch Society nonsense. Anthony Sutton wasn't the Congressional archivist. He just wrote conspiracy books about Bolsheviks and Skull and Bones. He's considered a bad historian, a shitty source and a bad writer. This is all a fun story, but it doesn't also make sense. The globalists apparently set up this system because they needed to get around the Sherman Antitrust Act. But why would they allow the Sherman Antitrust act to be passed to begin with? It's not like the globalist plot just started 50 years ago and they're adjusting to new realities. Their boss is the fucking literal devil. If the whole system that we live in now was created just to get around the Sherman Antitrust Act. It seems like it would be easier for the globalist if they just overturned that or didn't let it pass. They have magic powers and kill people all the time and it seems like they have free run of all the government's power for over 100 years. So it doesn't seem unreasonable to assume they could just undo this law. And interestingly, pretty much the only people who want to overthrow the Sherman Antitrust act are folks on Alex's right wing libertarian side.
Jordan
Crazy.
Dan
They believe that the market would sort it all out. And these are just limiting freedom by having, you know, like if you have a monopoly that actually works and gives people what they need.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
The market will allow that. But if you're a bad monopoly, the market will take care of that.
Jordan
That's why everybody loves Comcast and att.
Dan
They love them.
Jordan
They love them.
Dan
Big business wants there to be no antitrust laws. And Alex's ideological forefathers were shills for big business, whether he wants to accept it or not. His entire conspiracy framework, and by extension his religious beliefs are based in kissing the boss's ass. And that's all he's got.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
But I do like to point out those little moments where there is the agreement, which is like, this is an exploitable system that the super rich can use. And the reason that I like to point out those moments of agreement is because those are the places where Alex lies to you. Yeah, those are the places. Like 15 years ago you could have heard him say something like that and been like, this guy's saying some shit. Yep. He's on to something, but he doesn't care.
Jordan
Nope.
Dan
He's not going to resolve this. He doesn't have a solution to this problem. He just wants to kick out immigrants.
Jordan
Yeah, yeah. I mean, it's, it is just so clear. Like, people do want to hear the truth said. People do want to hear you say, this is fucked up and not immediately followed up with, but here's why the system says we can't do anything about it now or we have to wait until the next four years or we.
Dan
Have to do satisfying.
Jordan
Yeah, absolutely. People want to hear you say, this can't be going on anymore.
Dan
Right. And here's what we're gonna do about it. Tom Homan's gonna throw people out of the country.
Jordan
Yep. It's a big difference.
Dan
It's. There is a difference between appealing to incremental change and hopefully in the future we'll be Able to work this system better. Yeah, there's a difference between that and scapegoating.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
And Alex has proven that. Scapegoating.
Jordan
Well, I mean, the problem is whenever the incremental change doesn't work, people are gonna go right to scapegoats. Love scapegoats. Whenever incremental change fucks up, it's.
Dan
It is an unfortunate reality. So another unfortunate reality is that Elon Musk, he spoke at the AFD conference.
Jordan
Great.
Dan
And people are psyopping him.
Jordan
What?
Alex Jones
Well, this is the type of crap they do. Overhead shot, please. And we'll show you the HD of it on screen. Fears for security of Jews worldwide in wake of Elon Musk AFD speech. Now look at this article. What do you see there in the photo they've got? Well, it's Elon Saturday on a jumbo Tron speaking to afd, which is the preeminent, growing, winning Nazi party. Not even as conservative as Trump. They're more Ron Polish. Really. I've looked at their policies and listen to their leaders. They've been around for decades.
Jordan
So a, he's hired him.
Alex Jones
Elon's pro Israel, not anti Israel. He's pro Jew, not anti Jew. That's known. And they have no evidence here. They just say Jews are scared. But look at the picture there. You've got the written lies. You've got the loaded question about people are scared. And then there is a person waving a AFD sign, and all they had to do was pause the video when it went over his nose to give him a Hitler mustache.
Dan
Yeah. So Alex is totally right. And as much as there's a still frame on this story that was chosen because someone's flag is covering Elon's face in such a way that it creates a Hitler mustache.
Jordan
That's pretty funny. That's pretty funny.
Dan
There is no doubt about it. It is an intentional choice.
Jordan
That's pretty funny.
Dan
It's an unflattering and maybe a little winking choice for an image, but Alex has never had a problem with inopportune timing and photos with people he hates. So I don't know why he cares so much here.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
More importantly, Alex is claiming that the headline is asserting this thing with no evidence. The headline itself is, quote, fears for security of Jews worldwide in wake of Elon Musk efd afd speec. The article is in the Guardian and it's. It references the position of Holly Soyfer, the chief executive of the Jewish Democratic Council of America. In the article, she says, quote, the salute, the message to the AfD, the fact that he's willing to joke about the criticism he's getting, it all demonstrates that those around Trump are unwilling to recognize how dangerous their words and actions are. They don't deserve the benefit of the doubt when it comes to this alignment. It's been a steady stream of signaling to right wing extremists that they have an ally now in the White House. Some of the other stuff in the article that it brings up are that Trump didn't release a statement for Holocaust Remembrance Day, but he did pardon the guy who stormed the Capitol on January 6th wearing a camp Auschwitz shirt, which was timed. Tragically, that pardon timed right around the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. So when Alex says that these claims are being made with no evidence or backing, it's because he just skimmed the headline and he got mad about this picture. If he'd read the article, he would know that this is reporting on the views of a prominent Jewish American activist who's reporting her sense of how people are feeling about Musk's super obvious actions. But the picture, I understand, like, you just see that and you're like, hey, come on.
Jordan
I mean, there's never been a bad picture where somebody has accidentally gotten in the way. It's like a Margaret Thatcher standing in front of something and she obscures a word and then it says, far Fart. Great.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
No notes Margaret Thatcher in front of fart. I'm gonna laugh.
Dan
Sometimes pictures happen.
Jordan
It needs to, you know, it needs to happen. We need to see it.
Dan
But no, this is a subliminal message campaign. That sounds meant to attack Elon Musk.
Jordan
Damn it.
Alex Jones
It's not just the Guardian. They're all doing it. So globalist corporate media runs subliminal message campaigns to associate Elon Musk with Hitler.
Jordan
I think he's doing that.
Alex Jones
And they ran the image all over the place. And I looked. When I saw this morning, I went and looked. I didn't see anybody. Maybe they are now pointing out how ridiculous this is. Now, let me give you another example. So, see, that's what I do. And I've been doing this for 40 years, but really, I've been dialed up for 31 in April on air. That'll be the anniversary that when I look at things, I'm looking for what they're hiding and I see it. And it's not like I'm a schizo, you know, that sees the Virgin Mary in a piece of burnt toast or I see giraffes and clouds. No, I mean, I. I see what they're pushing, what the image is, and you catch it instantly. And I saw this an hour before the show, and I thought, certainly someone's picked up on this. And no one was pointing out, look at this photo. Look what they're doing. Look at the headline. Look at it all is one message. He's Hitler.
Dan
So this is not subliminal. It's very overt. And honestly, kind of the best picture you could run with a story like this. When Trump got shot, obviously the picture of him with blood on his face in front of the flag was gonna be the image that went with that story. And even though it had a strong potential to create a deceptive hero narrative about Trump, the picture was too good. There's no way you're gonna fault some outlet for running that picture. Similarly, in this case, noted bigot and eugenics fan Elon Musk was giving a speech at the AfD rally telling the audience to stop worrying about the guilt of the past. And at an inopportune moment, the shadow of a flag covered his face in a way that really looked like a Hitler mustache. We have the media that we have, and we have their traffic incentives that they exist within. So you're never not going to use that image if you have it. It's just. Come on, man.
Jordan
Yeah, No, I agree with you in every way. And yet somehow hearing the words out loud. We have the media. We have. Is such a bummer. It's such a bummer.
Dan
But I.
Jordan
We do have the media. We have.
Dan
Don't we suggest almost any media that you would have would run that picture.
Jordan
It. I'm doing it. Absolutely. No. No judgment from me.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
I'm just lamenting the state of Ape kind.
Dan
Sure.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
So Alex, he gets a little introspective. Sure. And he starts complaining about his own plight. Shit's tough.
Jordan
I mean, for everybody out there. And. Yeah.
Dan
You know, sure. Some days you're like, isn't it fucking cool that we're raffling off a truck?
Jordan
It is.
Dan
And then other days you're like. Like, we're raffling off a truck.
Jordan
That's pretty sad. Yeah, it's pretty sad.
Dan
And it's one of the kind of downer days around Infowars.
Alex Jones
I think they've already been caught with the fake bids, caught with the fake auction, caught kicking us out of the building or trying to. Twice turning off the Internet, saying we were shut down, saying Bloomberg, through the Onion owned it is every town group. And they. They're really embarrassed here. Well, they're gonna be really embarrassed soon. We got some real nice stuff in discovery, and that makes what you've heard about sound like what you haven't heard about. And they just think, well, we can do this. Dallas Jones. We can do all these illegal things to him like we did Trump. We can have a conspiracy against his rights. It's open season because we're the good people and he's the bad guy because CNN said so. He peed on that grave.
Dan
Grave.
Alex Jones
Never been to Connecticut. Nobody ever peed on it. Made up, but people back then still believe that son of a is pissing on graves and going people's houses. And Elon Musk's got a Hitler mustache, too. See all those damn white people. New Yorker magazine. So it's a new game, folks, because people are onto them. And now. Now the public is into researching and finding the lies, and it's exciting to discover it and break with all the mind control. But there's a problem. You got to sell a lot of CMOs, which is excellent, and a lot of COVID which is amazing, and a lot of T shirts to fight the Democrat Party deep state that's still coming after me. They even say, well, Trump's in, but Jones, if we shut him down, will be a consolation prize.
Dan
I don't think anyone says that.
Jordan
I think that should go into the national Lex. You got to sell a lot of sea moss to fight the devil. Yes. That should be our. That should go down in history. Oh, you got to sell a lot of sea moss to fight the devil. How much in CMOS do you got to sell to win this fight? That's the question.
Dan
How much wood would a woodchuck chuck?
Jordan
Oh, you'll never know.
Dan
That's how much CMOS you got to sell to fight the devil. And, like, I mean, earlier Alex was saying, like, most of the shit that I get is from people commenting on Twitter. I mean, it takes a lot of CMOs to keep me scrolling through Twitter to tell you things to be mad.
Jordan
About that you told me it takes a lot of CMOs for me to circum. Circulate things that you are all rumoring about to each other.
Dan
Yep.
Jordan
And then I piggyback on the fact that you guys go, oh, that's like, what I said, and I get a little bit more money. I'm a parasite.
Dan
Yeah. You should just start selling, like, dirt pills or something.
Jordan
Yeah, absolutely.
Dan
I don't know what's the next.
Jordan
It's a capsule fill of dirt.
Dan
It'll Be God made. Dirt. Dirt don't hurt.
Jordan
Absolutely. And then there's the fecal matter transplant plants that said that you need bacteria in your gut. So we've got poop in a pot, in a pill. We got poop pills.
Dan
I wouldn't put it past.
Jordan
I wouldn't put it past him.
Dan
So Alex has Mike Adams on.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
Because he's an expert.
Jordan
What is he an expert in today?
Dan
See, that's the issue.
Jordan
That is the issue.
Dan
She's the health ranger.
Jordan
Right. So we should stick to health.
Alex Jones
Nope.
Jordan
Oh, shit.
Dan
AI.
Jordan
So he's an AI expert.
Dan
Totally. Always has been.
Jordan
That sounds the most untrue.
Dan
Also expert in running smear websites against high school students who were the victims of school shootings.
Jordan
That one.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
That sounds like there's a lot of experience there.
Dan
Hog Watch, I believe, was Mike Adams website harassing David Hogg. AI Cool stuff.
Jordan
Not so much, no.
Dan
He's big into it, and he thinks that the problem with AI. Mm, it's woke. That's why China's AI system. Deep Seek that they. They released.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
It's so much better.
Jordan
Wait, wait, wait. So he's pro. Where is everybody standing?
Dan
It's not woke.
Jordan
Pick a spot and stay there, for God's sake.
Dan
He still hates China, but he thinks it's a great gift that they've given the world.
Jordan
Oh, my God.
Dan
Because it's not woke.
Jordan
Right?
Mike Adams
People talk about Deep Seek from China being censored.
Alex Jones
Censored.
Mike Adams
And I say you're wrong.
Dan
Yeah.
Mike Adams
Deep Seq may censor conversations about Tiananmen Square, but the US AI models censor any criticism of Big Pharma. They censor the truth about COVID origins. They censor the truth about the stolen 2020 election. They censor the truth about 9, 11, you name it. The US models censor all of these subjects. The US has far more censorship than Chinese models.
Alex Jones
Explain. Because you're an engineer. But I've read the studies. Why does manipulating it to. To.
Dan
To.
Alex Jones
To make it deceptive on not just Wokeism, but on everything. How does that make AI stupid? How does it hold it back?
Mike Adams
Because you can't have a reasoning model if the model is programmed to be irrational. And to say that men can have babies. Okay. I mean, they are obviously contradictory concepts. Well, I asked Deep Seek. I have deep seq R1 32 billion parameter model running on my desktop, okay? It's.
Alex Jones
It's.
Mike Adams
It's amazing. It's the greatest invention in human history. Okay? And I asked it. Can. Can men have. Get pregnant and have Babies. And it says, no, men don't have, you know, the reproductive hardware to. To have a baby. They don't have the hormonal hardware. I mean, obviously, men can't have babies. But if you ask Google, can men have babies? Oh, of course men can have babies. Or if you ask, you know, Anthropic or Microsoft or Meta, they're all over. Men can have babies.
Jordan
We.
Mike Adams
Well, you can't have a reasoning model that is good at reasoning if you teach it to be cognitively retarded, which is what wokeism is. So wokeism is cognitive retardation. That is the opposite of innovation. And that's why we're in this situation behind China, because China rejected wokeism while America's leftists pushed wokeism. Trump is trying to rescue us from that, and many conservatives are trying to rescue us.
Dan
Us.
Mike Adams
But we are behind the curve right now. We are losing in this race badly.
Alex Jones
Okay, so I know you're. You are an AI expert. People that don't know Mike, we're building.
Mike Adams
A model that I'll bring to you in about a month that'll blow your mind. I'll demonstrate it in your studio.
Alex Jones
Well, please. I've known Mike about 17 years. Really smart guy.
Dan
Real smart guy. He cured Ebola.
Jordan
Here's what I want.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
All right. What I want from these people and what I want not like I'm not going to get it. What I want the people who agree with them to want is a list. A list of the things that will happen once you get rid of Wokeism. Right. Woke mind virus is dead. They've got it.
Dan
Alex already declared it.
Jordan
Right, right, right. So what I want people who hate dei. What I want is before my. For, like, my family. Just write down 10 things that will improve or just 10 things that will happen once woke ism is gone over the next four years and see if any of them happen. If none of those things happen, then maybe it wasn't wokeism that you're unhappy with.
Alex Jones
Right.
Jordan
But nobody's gonna make that list.
Dan
No, probably not. Also, it's kind of a joke that people make that is like, oh, yeah, the reason we can't do this is woke. You know, woke got in the way.
Jordan
It's not. It's not a joke for you. That's what they say. That's what they say. Woke is in the woke things. But I thought even rhymed three times with situation, whatever it was he said.
Dan
The other thing, too, is like, I thought that Alex infected the AI models. And like, I remember antidote in the Matrix.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
So like, I thought this should be probably covered. I guess it's not. Oh my God, these people are fucking stupid. I feel like when I listen to Mike Adams.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
I feel like I'm babysitting.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Like it really feels like a child.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
The reasoning and the level of complaints, the level of expertise in every fucking field. Even though his career is littered with the corpses of humiliation. It's just I can't take him seriously.
Jordan
Here's what I find so fascinating about AI and the way these people interact with it is that there's only two ways that I've seen anybody interact with it. Through the books that I've read about it and then through people who talk about it and like, do their stuff and like keep people up to date. Is that there's incredibly smart people who can code the fuck out of shit who are playing with their fun toy.
Dan
Mm.
Jordan
And then they're incredibly stupid people who think that it's more than a toy.
Dan
Mm.
Jordan
And both of them are incredibly stupid to me.
Dan
Me and Alex is going to probably interview Mike's AI.
Jordan
Yeah. Nobody's, nobody's just going like, oh, this is a dumb toy. We fucked up.
Dan
We made a toy, we overcommitted on.
Jordan
We over committed on a toy. We blew it.
Dan
You know, that might be the end result. Or maybe we will become a colony of China.
Jordan
Sounds right.
Dan
Now I know that Mike has said that it's over for humanity. There's only going to be lone survivors.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
That was a number of years back. Right. He also said that during COVID China was going to launch a ground invasion.
Jordan
Now that happened.
Dan
Happened and now RIP Wisconsin and now because we're too woke right there, AI is going to take over and we're going to be a colony.
Jordan
Sounds true.
Mike Adams
Look, let me put it this way, Alex. If we don't become competitive in the air race, we will be a colony of China within five years. That's how crazy the situation is.
Alex Jones
So what does Trump need to do and what do we need to do?
Mike Adams
Trump needs to decentralize an open source AI right now. Trump needs to, on an emergency basis, reform the entire university system. Fire every woke teacher, every woke professor, every woke administrator across the entire education system. And we've got to end all censorship across the board, including the censorship that's still on.
Jordan
And by the way, are you Chairman Mao?
Alex Jones
You're saying what you're saying? I mean, it is wild.
Dan
It's wild.
Jordan
What the fuck did we just get Cultural revolution?
Dan
I think we did.
Jordan
Did we just get cultural revolution.
Dan
But it's like Mao with a cowboy hat because he's right.
Jordan
A Mao boy hat. And.
Dan
And a pacifier because he's a fucking.
Jordan
Fucking baby. Yes.
Dan
Reasons like a real unreal. Yep.
Jordan
So if we get rid of all the woke everywhere, I mean, what, what, what's. What's going on in theoretical math that woke us fucking up?
Dan
Is the professor not white?
Jordan
God damn it, you win. I obviously hadn't considered just being racist about it. Well, no, it makes perfect sense.
Dan
Listen, I need to take context when I'm hearing somebody yell at me about how everyone woke must be purged from society.
Jordan
No, you're right.
Dan
I have to take context clues from other things that they're saying about woke stuff.
Jordan
You're right.
Dan
And so here's Mike talking about how lesbian firefighters are woke.
Jordan
Sure, that sounds right.
Mike Adams
America's behind because we have been sabotaged. We've been sabotaged by the Democrats. We've been sabotaged by wokeness. The dumbing down of our school system, the dumbing down of our corporations. We now have a culture in America, which of course Trump is beginning to reverse, thank God. But we have a how, especially in Silicon Valley and in the tech areas where the. The most woke person is given the advancement to be in charge of projects instead of the most qualified person. Our universities have been turned into woke indoctrination centers instead of education centers. Now, there are exceptions to this. There are still some good universities, but. But, you know, across the board, they're just woke factories. They're indoctrination centers. I mean, look at what happened in L. A recently with the fires. Did we have competent fire chiefs? No, we had lesbian fire chiefs that were really happy to be, you know, lesbians. But can you put out fires? Not really. Can you put water in the fire hydrants? Turns out that's not the case. That that's not part of being lesbian for whatever reason. I don't know why, but I don't care if somebody's a lesbian or gay or trans.
Jordan
That feels not true. That feels not true. Yeah, that feels.
Dan
I mean, everything you just said betrays that premise.
Jordan
Because if you stop and you really think about what it is you are actually saying, you are either saying you hate lesbians or people who. Women can't fight fires.
Dan
Well, they're too busy.
Alex Jones
Women.
Jordan
Exactly.
Dan
When they're women.
Jordan
No, no, no, no, no. See, that's what I'm saying. It's either you hate lesbians or people who. Women can't fight fires.
Dan
No, no, no, you see? Understand? She's. She's too busy being a lesbian. She. She wants.
Jordan
What is busy being a lesbian?
Dan
You know?
Jordan
No, I don't.
Dan
Come on. What? Don't play dumb with me.
Jordan
Fair enough. You're right.
Dan
Me the hell for.
Jordan
Agent. You're right.
Dan
She's too busy being a lesbian.
Jordan
I don't. I don't understand.
Dan
Doing all her lesbian things, she can't open up a fire hydrant.
Jordan
Here's my problem. I think I used to know what the stereotypes that these people used meant. You know, like, oh, oh, this person's a lesbian. Back in the day, that had a, like, stereotypical meaning so that people would think of, like a lumberjack or something. You know, that was the 90s butch phase era, that kind of thing. I don't. I have no context for what this is.
Dan
Even stereotyping, incapable of fighting fires, too busy being lesbian.
Jordan
That doesn't. That's not a stereotype.
Dan
Nope. But it's the. It's the mentality that someone like Mike brings into this conversation, which is if the person who is in a position of authority is anything other than a straight white man.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
Then the reason that something went wrong is because it wasn't a straight white man.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
And conveniently, he's able to play this game, but he doesn't. He doesn't hate.
Jordan
If it's a straight white man, here's why. It's not his fault. If it's not a straight white man, here's why. Not being a straight white man is the problem.
Dan
Precisely. Yep. And that's what WOKE is all about.
Jordan
I think you're right. I mean, if you really want to boil it down. White people, not at fault, non white people, non straight people. Fucking. Just existing is the problem. Right. Yeah.
Dan
And so we need to solve that, I feel like. Or else China is going to take over.
Jordan
That doesn't sound true either.
Mike Adams
We have to do now on an emergency basis. And if we don't do this, we are toast as a nation. I mean, this. This is the end of.
Jordan
There will only be lone survivors become.
Mike Adams
Competitive and can become dominant in the realm of AI. What we have to do on an emergency basis right now is we have to denounce Wokeism and all of the irrational lunacy that it involves and the climate lunacy. This idea that carbon dioxide is a pollutant, that it's bad for plants somehow when it's critical for photosynthesis, for God's sake. Right. And this idea that men can have babies, this idea that there are an Unlimited number of genders. This idea infected our culture. It infected our government offices. It infected our corporate America, our universities, pop culture, Hollywood, all of it.
Alex Jones
It's got to go.
Mike Adams
And it's got to go on an emergency basis. I mean, this is a national security issue at this point.
Dan
So it's a national security issue that everyone cater all information to align with Mike Adams stupid ideas. Now here's essentially what is going on is like he engages with the world on the complexity of like, let's say a junior high level.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Which is. Oh, carbon dioxide. Plants need that to grow. He's reading a book that's a little bit out of his range, like maybe a high school or college book about how excess CO2 has other effects. And yes, no one is disputing that it's necessary for photosynthesis. Yes, that is true. But you're not emotionally or intellectually mature enough to engage with the adult discussion. So instead of learning more engaging with that actual discussion, what Mike wants to do is cause an emergency that makes all reading second grade level.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
Make it all elementary level. All junior high level. This is all I can handle. All the other stuff is woke shit.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
I can't deal with that complexity. And you guys are the ones who are dumb.
Jordan
It is. It is. Truly. Yeah. Like, it is so much. Whenever I go outside, every aspect of reality tells me that I'm stupid. And I don't want to believe that. So I will remove every aspect of reality that tells me I'm stupid and that will leave me and Alex sitting in a fucking bar somewhere by ourselves.
Dan
Yeah. And the issue is that, like, your point isn't wrong. Like, a lot of his points are wrong. But, like, just the one I'm using as a case point.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Carbon dioxide is required for photosynthesis is not wrong.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
So I'm not saying you're wrong about that. You just need to know more.
Jordan
Vitamin C keeps you from getting scurvy. That's why we don't replace your entire digestive system with oranges.
Alex Jones
Right.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
There's. There's more to this story than your dumb sunlight makes plants eat thing.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And what the. The. The issue is a lot of people who are maybe passive observers or just in the public, maybe they get swayed by an argument like, carbon dioxide is required to make plants grow because it is true.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Maybe you can be like, it doesn't make sense to me. Whatever. Mike is not that.
Jordan
Nope.
Dan
He knows he's full of shit.
Jordan
I think. I think he knows that in some places he's full of shit. And in other places, I really do think he thinks he's the one who's smart, you know? Like, I know he knows that wokeism is not behind all of the shit that he's saying wokeism is behind. But I also think he thinks he's a genius.
Dan
No, I don't think it even matters.
Jordan
Okay.
Dan
I don't think any of that shit matters to him. He is such a craven opportunist. Fuck that. Like, I think he is emotionally, and the way he interacts is very childish.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
He's not very smart.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
But he also presents this not smartness in a way that really works for his ends.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
If he had any kind of, like, care at all or was in any way a sincere actor, all the dramatic shit about, like, the end of the world and all this stuff that he said on Alex's show, like, he would have to deal with that.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
He would have to be like, man, maybe I'm not a responsible person to break the health ranger news.
Jordan
I wonder.
Dan
Maybe I should shut up.
Jordan
I agree.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
I agree. I wonder if this doesn't also have something to do with, like. Like, as a culture, it is not okay. Or at least we don't make you feel like it's okay to say something like, I don't understand this. And I gotta be honest with you, I probably never will. I don't have the interest in learning about it. I don't care personally. And it's not affecting me.
Dan
Nope.
Jordan
So instead you have to. You have to be like, oh, I totally understand that. And then there you go.
Dan
Yep. That's how you end up with a bunch of health rangers.
Jordan
Because it makes you feel. It doesn't make you feel good to be like, listen, listen, I don't know what you're talking about. And I honestly am never going to learn.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Because learning more about it will threaten the stability of the political beliefs that I have made the center of my being.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
Enjoy.
Jordan
Okay, so you don't understand. Then we. You just are going to believe what you want to believe regardless. So why are we bothering with you telling me that carbon dioxide is important for fucking photosynthesis? Because.
Dan
Because we have to eradicate what.
Jordan
There you go.
Dan
So we come to the end of this, and there's a lot going on in the world.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
And I don't know if we're covering a lot of it. Alex has. You know, he talked about the firing of the inspectors general.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Didn't. Didn't do a great job of it. I think we're missing a lot of stuff that's happening.
Jordan
You know, I think. Here's what I think is interesting. Right. So I'm living where I'm living and I'm seeing, like, if we are in a space where the President could just do some illegal shit and then everybody's like, I guess he can do some illegal shit then. Then all that. We gotta keep your ears out for when somebody's like, you can't do that anymore, and here's how we're going to stop you. Right. Otherwise, it's not really news when he does illegal shit.
Dan
Sure.
Jordan
You know what I mean?
Dan
Yeah. What I was thinking more is that, like, we're not. We're not getting a lot of, like, you know what's happening.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
Right.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
But I bet that Alex, his Twitter has a lot more on it.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And I start to think that maybe he's more a guy who has a Twitter account than he is a guy who does a show.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Because I bet, like, current events and, like, on these days, I bet he's tweeting like crazy about all the stuff that Trump's doing.
Jordan
You're right.
Dan
And engaging and having back and forth.
Jordan
With people, because that's how you build engagement.
Dan
Yeah. I bet he's engagement farming a great deal. But it's not like coming out in any way on the show. The show. He's not a show host anymore. He's a guy who has a social media account and the show is kind of an offshoot of that.
Jordan
Yeah. He's tosh 2.0.
Dan
Know three.
Jordan
I mean. I mean, what he's doing is aggregating bullshit that people have sent him on Twitter and then giving it to us in a slightly more entertaining format, I guess.
Dan
But. But it would be like if Tosh 2.0 was primarily a Twitter account.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
Or primarily, like online social media account. And then the show was just talking about things that. That he saw. I don't know how to make it work, but I think that.
Jordan
I think you're right.
Dan
I feel like he has abandoned ship in a lot of ways.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
There is not. I don't think it's a priority for him. And I think that there's a certain level that he's making a bad situation for himself, because if something happens and he is kicked off Twitter, he's fucked.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
He has put all those eggs in there. And I don't think that his brand is going to sustain this support that he has for Elon Musk. I think that the prevailing and correct conspiracy position is to make him the deep state. This is why Trump can't get any of the stuff you want done is because of Elon Musk.
Jordan
Musk.
Dan
It's almost perfect.
Jordan
It is right there.
Alex Jones
Right.
Dan
And so that will be the angle that the sort of more smarter conspiracy right wing types like David Icke are gonna go that path. And Alex is cutting that angle off for himself.
Jordan
I mean. Yeah. And it's a smart one if you're, if you're a Trump fan because Trump gets to continue being your God king.
Dan
Yep.
Jordan
It's smart for Trump because he gets to continue stealing from you without you caring.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
And it's smart for Elon because he gets to be the superpowered vill he obviously wants to be.
Dan
Right.
Jordan
He's doing Hitler salutes. Right.
Dan
And it's the smart thing for you as like some right wing dipshit commentator type because you get to enjoy all of the damage and shit you want to happen and still get to pretend like I'm actually against this.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
You know, like.
Jordan
Yeah, yeah.
Dan
You can pretend to have like that opposition.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
And Alex is just completely blocking that door for himself. So I hope it hurts him in the long run.
Jordan
Yeah. You know, I mean, I feel like he's a. I feel a little bit like he's a loyalist in Belfast. I'm just saying it's the wrong time to be that.
Dan
We'll see. So I guess we'll be back with another episode. But until then, we have a website.
Jordan
Indeed we do. It's knowledgefight.com.
Dan
Yep. We'll be back. But until then. I'm Neo. I'm Leo. I'm DZX Clark. I am the mysterious Professor.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
Woo.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Jordan
Woo. And now here comes the sex robot Bonds.
Alex Jones
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air. Thanks for holding.
Jordan
Hello, Alex. I'm a first time caller.
Mike Adams
I'm a huge fan.
Jordan
I love your work.
Alex Jones
I love you.
Release Date: February 24, 2025
Hosts: Dan and Jordan
Main Focus: Reviewing and analyzing clips from the January 28, 2025 Alex Jones Show
Dan and Jordan return to break down a recent episode of The Alex Jones Show. Their analysis centers on how Alex Jones frames contemporary events, particularly around immigration, Trump’s policies, the shifting political climate, and the ongoing evolution of rightwing conspiracy rhetoric. They explore Jones’s descent into overt advocacy for authoritarian policies, his performative hypocrisy, and the tendency of Infowars to now serve more as a vessel for Twitter engagement than as a standalone media platform.

| Timestamp | Speaker | Quote | |-----------|----------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | 11:35 | Alex Jones | “Trump is just devastating the living shit out of the globalists. I mean it is unbelievable.” | | 16:41 | Alex Jones | “90% of this is… you posting under my post.” | | 18:00 | Alex Jones | “Manifest Destiny and expansion, you’re either expanding or you’re dying… Of course we need to get Greenland.” | | 25:22 | Dan | “He’s essentially saying that the military can kill whoever they want so long as they tell him they were in the cartel. This bloodthirsty right-wing mentality…” | | 32:58 | Alex Jones | “Captain America should not represent Captain… A black represent America. Captain America has nothing to do with America… It’s a psyop.” | | 46:13 | Alex Jones | “If you went to Mexico and grabbed somebody at a Mexican parade and grabbed their flag, you’d get beat to death. And you pretty much should.” | | 56:07 | Alex Jones | “Obama fired inspector general in 2009.” | | 64:33 | Dan | “Big business wants there to be no antitrust laws. And Alex’s ideological forefathers were shills for big business whether he wants to accept it or not.” | | 74:55 | Alex Jones | “You gotta sell a lot of sea moss to fight the devil.” | | 78:35 | Mike Adams | “Wokeism is cognitive retardation. That is the opposite of innovation.” | | 82:00 | Mike Adams | “Fire every woke teacher, every woke professor, every woke administrator…” |
Dan and Jordan make clear that Alex Jones and Infowars have abandoned any pretense of principled anti-authoritarianism. Jones openly roots for violent, racist policy, shows contempt for civil liberties, and recycles right-wing talking points he spent decades ostensibly opposing. His show now serves as a megaphone for whatever grievance or conspiracy is trending among his Twitter following, with occasional detours into self-pity and product shilling. The episode stands as a thorough indictment of Jones’s hypocrisy and the dangers of his now-unmasked ideology.
