Hey, everybody. Welcome back to Knowledge Fight. I'm Dan.
Jordan
I'm Jordan.
Dan
We're a couple dudes, like around worship at the altar of Seline and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
Jordan
Oh, indeed we are.
Dan
Dan Jordan. Dan, Jordan.
Jordan
Quick question for you.
Dan
What's up?
Jordan
Which bright spot today, buddy?
Dan
Why don't you go first?
Jordan
Well, my bright spot, we were actually just talking about it. We haven't recorded since it dropped, but we were guests on the Past Times with Dave and Gareth of the Dollop podcast.
Dan
Yeah. What fun.
Jordan
It was a delightful time and it was great and people have enjoyed it, so that's nice.
Dan
Yeah, yeah. And it filled in for our Monday episode.
Jordan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dan
An excuse to do a Wednesday and Friday. Yeah, yeah. No, it's, you know, one of our early, like, I don't remember if we had started this show yet when we went to go see the Dollop together, but that was an early, like, like a night out for the two of us. It wasn't just screaming at a bar.
Jordan
No. It may literally have been less than a week or two into us recording this show.
Dan
Yeah. I mean, it had to have been to been like in the proximity.
Jordan
It was early.
Dan
I can't remember. It was at the Athenaeum. And I can't remember if it was before or after you dragged me to that British comedian that I didn't like.
Jordan
It was after, I want to say, and Dylan Moran's Irish. All right. There's a difference. There's a difference.
Dan
Yeah. There's something really weird about, you know, being in that place and with these people that like, you have a history of listening to. Yeah, you know, I don't know. It's just. What a treat.
Jordan
Yeah, it is. It's just great. It's just really fun.
Dan
You got to yell a lot.
Jordan
It was reaffirming. It was nice that. I think there was a small Part of me that was worried that Gareth and I might get into the Infinite Riff, which I think early on we made it through about one sentence, the Jablonski effect, for about 15 minutes. Yeah. So.
Dan
But you were being egged on by both me and.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
So, like, it's not.
Jordan
We were. We were doing it.
Dan
It was scary that you might be matter and antimatter coming together, destroying the universe.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
But, yeah.
Alex Jones
I.
Dan
For my end of. I did not know that we were video recording.
Jordan
No. Didn't know that at all.
Dan
And so, for one thing, when we were recording this, I couldn't see Dave or Garrett.
Jordan
Nope.
Dan
I could only see a slot between them. So I couldn't react to any of their facial expressions. And I didn't know we were recording, so I was vaping a whole bunch. And I feel I was so scared when the episode was like, it's going to be. It's coming out.
Jordan
Oh, boy. Ah, what you gonna do?
Dan
What about the kids? Setting a bad example for the kids with this vape.
Jordan
It was. It was nice to. To be like, oh, thank God. Whenever I saw it, I was. Because I've seen myself when we've recorded remotely, where it's like, oh, this needs to be audio only, guys. Yeah.
Dan
Yeah. You look like you're in a, like, hostage cave somewhere or something.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Yeah. You look fine. You looked, I think, how people expected.
Jordan
Yep. About the way. Yeah. You look great. You look good. Yep.
Dan
Too much vaping, though.
Jordan
Yeah, there is that. That'll happen.
Dan
No one has said that to me. It's only my own.
Jordan
In your head entirely. I don't think anybody even has too much or not enough vaping judgment for you.
Dan
I definitely don't think. No one. There's no one who's saying not enough.
Jordan
It's hard to imagine a not enougher.
Dan
Bump it up.
Jordan
There's. But I'm sure, listen, this is America. There's a not enougher out there.
Dan
That's true. There's probably some competitive vapors that are. Like yourself.
Jordan
There's totally competitive vapors that are like. You're soft.
Dan
Oh, well, ye.
Jordan
Yeah. What's your bright spot?
Dan
So, on Sunday, yes, I was thrilled to go to the George Lucas talk show in person at the Denton Theater.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
I've loved that show for a long time. Connor, Ratliff, Garrett. Not Gareth.
Jordan
Not Gareth.
Alex Jones
Griffin.
Dan
Griffin and Patrick. They're just fantastic. I love the show.
Jordan
You got to see Watto.
Dan
Got to see Watto.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
Got to see him be introduced to stage as Waito, because the Person. And then he had an argument with the. On the God mic about his introduction. Fantastic.
Jordan
Fantastic.
Dan
Just such a great time. Like, it's such stupid shit and so funny. I really was like, ah, fuck, I'd love to meet these people because I look up to them.
Jordan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dan
But I'm just, you know, I'm just a person who goes to these shows.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
Like, I'm just going to the show. I just want to be part of the crowd and.
Jordan
Right. Sometimes you're just going to a show.
Dan
Yeah. So I get there and I sit in my seat like a. Like a guy.
Jordan
Like a good boy. Yeah, yeah.
Dan
And it dawns on me that I don't know who the guests are for this show. Right.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
So I have no idea who. I'd never even thought about, like, okay, they're doing a show in Chicago. Who would likely be their guest.
Jordan
Right, right, right.
Dan
And so I'm just sitting there twiddling my thumbs. Who walks by me but Colt Cabana, who we kind of know.
Jordan
Yes. Yeah, yeah. We are Proxim. Knowing him. Yeah, yeah.
Dan
He would recognize me for sure. Yes.
Alex Jones
At a wedding.
Jordan
Went to a wedding together. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely.
Dan
So I. I was like, Colt. And he did not look. And I felt like the stupidest person in the world because I probably should have considered. Oh, yeah, Colt might be.
Jordan
Said hello. Yeah.
Dan
No, no. Oh, I should have contacted him in advance.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And then I probably could have met Watto.
Jordan
You could have hung out with them. Yeah. Yeah, that's a good point.
Dan
So anyway, that didn't happen. But the show was great. It was a lot of fun.
Jordan
You're such a quitter sometimes.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
You just. Just go like, oh, I miss hey, Cole. That nobody would care.
Dan
Right.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
No, I probably could have. And there was a part of me that thought about sticking around afterwards just to say hi.
Jordan
Just to say hi.
Dan
But then was like, it's tough.
Jordan
It's tough.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
It's just.
Dan
It was crowded and it was hopping off the chains.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And what have you. And I just. I wanted to go home. So anyway, it was a treat and a thrill. George Lucas did, I think, five shots of Malort on stage.
Jordan
That's too many shots of Malort.
Dan
Utterly lost control of the.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
The hosting of the show.
Jordan
Absolutely.
Dan
But it's fantastic.
Jordan
I believe you.
Dan
So, anyway, today we have an episode to go over that is not as fantastic.
Jordan
That's unsurprising.
Dan
Yeah. It's an episode. Alex Jones's show.
Jordan
Okay. That's no good.
Dan
We'll be talking about November 14, 2025.
Jordan
All right.
Dan
And Epstein stuff continues to be a problem how? Because more stuff is coming out.
Jordan
What are we doing? Do something or I don't shit or get off the pot time. I feel like that's where we're at. Right.
Dan
And I think that's. That's this interesting stretch that we're in here where, you know, I'm back to looking at a day at a time again. And I think it's because we're in a moment where shit's breaking.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And Alex is in a state where he knows he has to do something different and he can't.
Jordan
Can't do it.
Dan
And I think that's fascinating. Yeah, that's a microscope kind of moment.
Jordan
Being trapped in a box that you can see is. Is very different from being trapped in a box that is clear, you know.
Dan
And it's a box that everyone else can see.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And no one can deny.
Jordan
Nope.
Dan
It's fucked up.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And this episode's a mess too, so we'll go over that here in a second. But first, let's take a little moment to say hello to some new wonks.
Jordan
That's a great idea.
Dan
So first, since I wasted my shout out on a joke shout out, say my name. Hentron. Thank you so much. You're now policy wonk.
Alex Jones
I'm a policy wonk, thank you very much.
Dan
Next. Thanks for not listening to the old man in the background yelling, say no when I asked you to marry me. Thank you so much. You're now policy wonk.
Alex Jones
I'm a policy wonk, thank you very much.
Dan
And stay away from my scat hole. It's full of scat. Thank you so much. You're now a policy wonky.
Alex Jones
I'm a policy wonk, thank you very much.
Dan
And we had a technocrat at the Mixed Jordan. So thank you so much to rat legs, you are now a technocrat.
Alex Jones
I'm a policy wonk. 4 stars. 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
Jar Jar Binks, notably not at the George Lucas talk show, is replaced as sidekick by Watto a number of years back.
Jordan
I don't think Chicago likes Jar Jar. I think. I think there's a huge anti Jar Jar sentiment in Chicago.
Alex Jones
I don't know.
Dan
I think there's a reclamation of Jar Jar. That's going on. Well, they tried to do that with the. Like, maybe he was evil all along.
Alex Jones
Sure.
Dan
Fumbling was an act.
Jordan
Not going to happen.
Dan
That was an attempt to reclaim.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And now it's just kind of fun.
Jordan
No, he sucks the end. You can't reclaim him. I've watched people try and reclaim so much shit lately. I saw somebody just published a thing about Mallrats trying to reclaim that shit. Fuck off. Get out of here. Leave that shit. In the 90s.
Dan
Yeah. I was. I was listening to an episode of Scott Aukerman's podcast. Hasn't seen.
Roger Stone
Yeah.
Dan
Chris Gethard was on, and they were talking about mall rats. And it made me reflect on how much of that shit was, like, just fucking street jokes.
Jordan
Yep. Like, 100%.
Dan
I don't know how much of that was even original.
Jordan
No, I mean, it is. It was so, like, I get why people think it's funny, but those are street jokes. Those are. God damn it.
Alex Jones
I.
Jordan
Comedy sucks.
Dan
Yeah. So does Alex and Epstein.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
So, look, shit's bad.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
At this point. All right. Everything is a total mess. And there are more Epstein stories and emails and things that are coming out. Sure. You know, there's articles about, you know, Epstein emailing with people about talking to the Russians about Trump.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
You know, emails between Epstein and his brother about whether or not Putin has a video of Trump blowing Bubba.
Jordan
Right. Which is.
Dan
He clarified later. Isn't Clinton Okay?
Jordan
Yeah, well, I mean, that would be. That would be an explosive video.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Jordan
And not a little hot.
Dan
Well, I think it's the kind of thing you would deflect from with a piss tape. Rumor. No, I just.
Alex Jones
I.
Dan
It's all bad. I don't know what any of this shit means. I'm not trying to fully, you know, forensically get to the bottom of everything.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
A lot of it, especially when we're recording right now, is unknowable stuff. And so, like, I just think it looks bad. I think it all looks really bad.
Jordan
I like. I like this because it feels like we're an inverse of where it's been for the last. For. For the longest time. Right. Where we really had. Okay. So people were taking details and trying to find out the larger picture through details, and now I feel like we know the larger picture is we fucked up. Just, like, pure and simple, we fucked up. We got to do something. But all these details, they're unknowable. They're unknowable. You'll never know. It's crazy.
Dan
Yeah. And I think that also for a long time we've been. I think a lot of people have been under the impression that Trump's support and the base that he has is unlike. Stoppable.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Like that there is some power to their hatred that all like comes together.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
And it's not going to eat itself.
Alex Jones
Right.
Dan
And we are now seeing like, oh, there's a point where they're going to eat themselves.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
It doesn't mean that it's not all still very dangerous.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
You know, like power is gonna restore to normal.
Alex Jones
Right.
Dan
In a couple months or whatever. But like it's. He's not as invincible as he had appeared to be.
Jordan
Right, right, right. Yeah. You know, for his quote, you know, he could shoot a man and people would still support him, but he couldn't kiss a man and have people still support him. So there are definite weak spots.
Dan
Yeah, yeah. And I think that he could shoot someone but he couldn't stab someone.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
Like, because the gun enthusiasts would put him over the edge.
Alex Jones
Right.
Dan
For supporting him even if he shot.
Jordan
Even if he shot somebody.
Dan
But if he stabbed someone, he wouldn't have their support.
Jordan
Not enough knife people.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Alex has a new knife he's selling, by the way.
Jordan
Well, then there's more knife people that I would probably prefer.
Dan
You know, when you talk about knife people.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
With a Texan bitch, there's an out of context drop.
Jordan
All right. I like it.
Dan
So we start off the show and Alex, I think, you know, he wakes up in the morning and he sees.
Jordan
Like haha, his face or just the world or just what has happened to.
Dan
Him, like his soul, it feels bad. And he sees these headlines.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And he's like, fucking hell, it's gonna be a big show.
Alex Jones
Oh my gosh. I start almost every broadcast by saying all hell's breaking loose because it is. The Quickening's here. But this broadcast is going to be insane. Oh my good infowars. Tomorrow's news today I am seeking the truth, nothing more. And I 100 called. What was going to happen with the Epstein stuff, What was going to be a disaster? What in the last 10 months when the, the clear cover up began by this administration.
Dan
It's kind of true. That's kind of true.
Jordan
I understand.
Dan
He did tell Trump that he needs to just shut up.
Jordan
I understand the spirit of the law. Yeah, yeah.
Dan
He did not predict like where things were going and everything, but he did give better advice to Trump than whatever he got.
Jordan
That's fair. That's fair. I will admit that. Anything else Though. I mean, come on now. Come on, man.
Dan
But every day now is the most important thing ever. It's. The show's gonna be fucking insane. Yeah.
Jordan
I feel like if you're, if you're Infowars, you really can't, you know, like if you're a late night show, if you're the late night show with Jimmy Kimmel, oh, we got a great show tonight. You got a great show every night because you're a late night show, that's fine. But if you're Infowars, you can't have an incredible broadcast, because an incredible broadcast means there's no broadcast tomorrow. Do you know? Right. You know what I mean? Like, if it's that big of a deal, that's because the world is ending.
Dan
Yeah. And if you're doing a late night show, you can't have the best and funniest show every night.
Alex Jones
Right.
Dan
But it has to be good because it's really. It exists as PR for whoever your guests are.
Jordan
Yeah, it really.
Dan
And that doesn't exist with Alex?
Jordan
No, no, not anymore. There's really no PR to be gained.
Alex Jones
Nope.
Dan
We do get Roger later. Hey, get excited.
Jordan
All right.
Dan
So Trump is really, really innocent. Except the guilty stuff.
Jordan
Sure.
Alex Jones
And I knew why Trump was joining the COVID up. And it's because it's all these lawsuits and all these criminal cases and most of it's innuendo and it's an old case and it implicates a bunch of high powered people. And the CIA came to him and said, it's Mossad with us, we need to just shut this down. And Trump knew Surely that 90 plus percent of the people with Epstein are high powered Democrats. And so he kind of wink, wink, made the deal. And then the Clintons and all of them turned around and have been cherry picking and selecting stuff to put out to implicate Trump.
Jordan
Okay.
Alex Jones
And it is a hoax that he's done something illegal with Epstein. There is no evidence they would have already used it. Plus we, the witnesses, the victims, I mean, all of it. But then Trump stepped into the COVID up and became guilty by association.
Dan
Yep. I mean, you don't wink, wink, go along with sex trafficking conspiracies. Like you don't cover up that stuff up on a wink.
Jordan
I'm so, I am confused because he's making. His tone is saying one thing, but I'm feeling like those words are actually a closing argument. He's guilty. Isn't that what you just said?
Dan
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, I guess if the best thing you can do. To excuse. Like, hey, Trump didn't. He's not on any of these tapes.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
But he is covering it up because, I mean, wink, wink, you know, they.
Jordan
They, yeah, they don't, they don't like.
Dan
Hey, that's super guilty.
Jordan
Okay, we've got the murderer and we've got the guy who covered up the murder, but because the guy who covered up the murder didn't kill the guy, he gets to go away free. That's not how that goes.
Dan
Well, I mean, they're technically different crimes, but they definitely are both crimes.
Jordan
They're both crimes. Yeah, I get that. Maybe we don't punish them equally.
Dan
And generally when you're helping cover up a murder, it's because you want the people who did the murder to not get in trouble for the murder.
Jordan
Yeah. Usually that's a big part of it.
Dan
You have an investment somehow emotionally or like financially with the person who did the murder.
Jordan
And in fact, many people say that the COVID up is worse than the crime.
Dan
Sure.
Jordan
So you should have murdered that guy.
Dan
I think the Republicans said that when they were trying to impeach Clinton.
Jordan
I think they did.
Dan
So, Epstein, all the stuff with Trump, it's just fucking innuendo. It's just wink, wink stuff, you know?
Jordan
Sure. Nine.
Dan
Nine.
Alex Jones
Globalists will not destroy our republic. We will overpower them. We are with sheer truth information and will.
Dan
Good.
Alex Jones
Night. All right, here's the big news today. We're covering it all. Massive gas. So much more today. The Epstein thing has come to the peak so far. So far it's importance and exactly what I knew was in there is in there.
Jordan
And also more already been out.
Alex Jones
It's all complete innuendo and crap. And so Trump is going after the Clintons and everybody's saying, fine, open the whole damn thing up. Even though it's going to destroy the economy. And I'm not sure it is, but it's going to be really bad.
Dan
It's weird how much it feels like Alex is trying to argue against releasing the files, but doing it in this like, shitty indirect way.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
It's like he's warning about some horrible thing that's gonna happen if these files are released, which is definitely not what you would expect from the champion against corruption and the guy who's got all the documents and like, you know, it's just not him.
Roger Stone
Yeah.
Dan
It's not the guy he has pretended to be.
Jordan
Here's the other problem, right. If, if the goal is, as he's saying, like to keep people from focusing on this, then the way for Alex to keep people from focusing on this is to take it too seriously. Right. When Alex takes it seriously, everybody laughs at him and they go, ha, ha ha, you're an idiot. And so they stop paying attention to it.
Alex Jones
Right.
Dan
We definitely figured out all of the ins and outs of 911 that he covered very seriously for so long.
Jordan
Totally. For him to be like, hey, guys, he's just really cool. Only makes it the most suspicious thing that you could ever possibly imagine.
Dan
Yeah. When Mr. Suspicious is like a. Be bad if something happened to your economy. If you. If you release these files, like, no, you're the suspicious guy. You're not supposed to be doing this. That's suspicious.
Jordan
You're the one doing crap. You're wearing a trench coat and a balaclava. I don't even know how that works.
Dan
Yeah. You're shady as shit.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
So the. The globalists, what they're trying to do.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
Is cause a civil war within the MAGA world.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
And, man, it's working okay.
Alex Jones
It's night and day how much good we're getting done, but it's still not enough. And I've been saying this. They're gonna try to crash the economy and try to get riots going, because that's the Podesta plan. And they're gonna bring this Epstein thing out. They're gonna try to create a Maga civil war that created the cracks 10 months ago. Then Gaza peaking and the Israel lobby obnoxiously saying, censor everybody. Take everybody off the air. Shut up. Everybody from Tucker Carlson to Alex Jones and Nick Fontes, all of that has been done. That's caused a big rift, and it's now civil war. MAGA and real pollsters that I respect, who've been right 99% of the time, like Mark Mitchell has been hitting the panic button for a few months, and now you see it everywhere. And he predicted all this, and people go, oh, he's just a panicking. No, it's good. When Trump's doing wrong and stepping in it. Wait to say, stop that.
Dan
So it's crazy, because what Alex is saying here is exactly what I said at the time. But no shadowy globalists are trying to cause a civil war. The Trump fan base is an internally hostile coalition, and it's one that can't hold under pressure. Alex is correctly identifying the two biggest inflection points in the past months in the form of the bombing of Iran and the entire Epstein debacle. But his description of them and his desperation to blame someone else for them Being splinter points is wrong. Trump's base is full of a ton of hyper motivated idiots and outright bigots who don't have compatible priorities. It's not a problem when you're all just making memes and laughing about how triggered the libs are. But when you seize pretty much all the power in the country, there's nowhere left to hide. Trump's actions haven't matched what parts of his base wanted to believe about him, and it's going to lose him certain groups in a way that he probably can't win back. Legit Nazis, as well as whatever part of the right wing exists that actually just has a problem with Israel, know that he's not their guy. Anyone whose brand relies on them being against the elites and a two tier justice system, or even just not liking child sex traffickers now knows that Trump is not their guy. Without these two factions, Trump probably doesn't have that much gas left in the tank. He's lost the most active of the bigots and any conspiracy types who haven't even tiny attention span. And that's a lot of the online influencers that the movement relies on to distract people and to spam posts of liberals crying or whatever. Yeah, at this point the smart thing to do is leave Trump for dead. And it's fascinating that Alex isn't moving on. The only two explanations I can really come up for this non motion is one, Roger has something on Alex or two, Alex knows that his primary brand is anti immigrant and anti Muslim incitement and Trump has an violated that brand. Yet that's true. Alex doesn't fundamentally hate Jewish people. And his whole thing about fighting the globalist cabal, that's been an act from the beginning. So Trump kind of hasn't shit in his mouth yet.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
He's seeing him shit in everyone else's mouth.
Jordan
Right, right, right.
Dan
But he thinks he's safe.
Jordan
He's, he's funneling shit like, like a fucking pneumatic tube at a bank.
Dan
Yes, but never coming up. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's gonna happen.
Jordan
But he's never actually gotten hit in the face with it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's fair.
Dan
And I don't know why Alex is doing this. I don't know what the calculation is, you know, like, but whatever it is, he's got to move on. This sucks.
Jordan
I don't know, are we, are we okay? I understand that time is tough to process, but are we all just overreacting like, like a year from now? Can't they just say like, ah, none of this happened, you know, like, they're not gonna be gone in a year. Right. So they just gotta push through, have a bad year, and then everybody will be like, oh, we got em, didn't we? And then when they didn't, they'll be like, ah, we gotta move on to.
Dan
No, because within the next year, there's gonna be midterm elections. And, like. Sure.
Jordan
I mean, you. You're overthrowing the government. You know, like, I get it.
Alex Jones
Look, I'm not.
Dan
I'm not talking about, like, the power of electoralism.
Jordan
Sure, sure.
Dan
I'm talking about every one of these campaigns being a possibility to, like, publicly attack someone as you supported the guy who's covering up Epstein, or you work for Israel, or there's a lot of ugliness.
Alex Jones
Sure.
Dan
That gets into the, like, public conversation.
Alex Jones
Sure.
Dan
So I don't think you can hide.
Alex Jones
I mean.
Jordan
I mean, is that. Isn't that the other. Isn't that. The thing is, like, do we even have to hide? Do we just need to endure? You know, like, if I'm. If I'm Trump and all these guys, they might just go and, like, hey, just fucking endure it. And they'll lose focus.
Dan
I. I think that. I think there's too much on them.
Jordan
Okay.
Dan
To endure.
Jordan
All right.
Dan
I think everybody should try their best to endure. Like, you know, just. You know, everyone at home, just.
Jordan
Just keep your chin up. We're going to endure.
Dan
Yeah. Right. But I don't think. I don't think politically, like, that's a viable strategy for Trump himself.
Jordan
All right.
Dan
Maybe for J.D. vance or something.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
Like, I think he could do a.
Jordan
Keep your head down, let all the shit land on, and then wear an umbrella, that kind of thing.
Dan
I think you could do a brand refresh. Okay. In some way, but, Yeah, I don't. I think for Trump, you got to. You got to just leave him.
Jordan
I mean, we've got. Damn it. We've said it before. It breaks my heart, you know, when.
Dan
Like, on the challenge, they've had, like, team finals that they've run. Yeah. And somebody just can't make it. You got to leave them behind.
Roger Stone
Yeah.
Dan
Then you get dq. Can't do it anyway. Megyn Kelly. Yeah. You remember her?
Jordan
I do remember her. Is she alive?
Dan
She is. And she is quite like a. She's branded differently. Okay. Now she's a bit more hardcore. Right.
Jordan
Oh, she's. She went more Nazi. I thought she would pull back and go, like Lifestyle Advisor, but no, she's gone full mtg.
Dan
Mm.
Jordan
All right.
Dan
Fun yeah. So a number of years back, she came to Austin and interviewed Alex.
Jordan
Yes.
Dan
Which ended up being part of the reason that they were able to get the Sandy Hook lawsuits going.
Jordan
It really was.
Dan
And I think he, you know, he's always insinuated a bunch of stuff about her. Sure. About how she wanted to fuck.
Jordan
Well.
Dan
And so he talks about that.
Alex Jones
Okay. Here. Megan Kelly and others have said it's clear they're trying to hype things up to get Tucker killed. Now they're attacking her. We'll get to all that. And look, Megyn Kelly is an opportunist. She's a lawyer, very smart woman. She's basically on our side now. And if we ever start losing, she'll jump back to the other side. It's what she does. But she's emblematic of the fact. I mean, Andrew Cuomo tries to sound like us, Fredo. They all do, because Tucker does. We're the winners. We're winning worldwide. But good. Come on over, Megan. Come over fully. She says nice things about me now. Good. I'm not gonna turn my back on you. Certainly not gonna have dessert with you. I'm coming to town. I'm gonna eat with you and have dessert. I was just like, come on.
Jordan
That means penis.
Alex Jones
Literally. Sound like a sex operative on the phone. I said, I don't usually record people. I went and found another company. Fun. I said, let me call you right back. I'm sorry. Bloops bad. But I mean, what people will do for their 50 million dollar a year salaries or whatever it was. They'll Mecho's total devil now that she's selling to the general public. And it's pretty accurate. Good information, but that's what it is to win. People that were previously mercenaries, join us. It's a sign of our victory. Don't be mad at her. Just don't turn your back on her. So you're a little too skinny for me, honey.
Jordan
Wild, wild existence.
Alex Jones
Getting serious. I apologize. I was trying to say nice things and I was just mean. It's what I do. I'm just. I'm real. I just can't help it. It's too real.
Dan
That's so real.
Jordan
Is that what he was being?
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
That fictional story likes the Thick Lady, a woman who has a 50 million dollar contract. But the inability to negotiate beyond. You got to fuck Alex sometimes. Yeah, well, that'll happen.
Dan
And I mean, go back to that interview. That is Alex at his thick neck. Est.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Of his life. But like, I think there's something really Like, I think I've probably had exchanges with people in my life where, like, they've said, hey, let's get dessert.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And I really don't think they're trying to fuck me.
Jordan
No.
Dan
I think Alex is the kind of person who would read that into every single exchange he had.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Jordan
I can't. I can't imagine. Like, that seems like a very TV and movie kind of innuendo. I don't think anybody's ever been like, hey, do you want dessert? In real life, they're more likely to be like, can we have sex now? For God's sakes. You're taking too long.
Dan
Yeah, I just. I don't think that she was trying to honeypot him.
Jordan
Yeah. I would strongly suggest she was not.
Dan
It's funny, though. It's funny. I mean, so it's interesting the way that Alex deals with the idea of an opportunist agreeing with him, because it's a classic glass half full, glass half empty kind of situation. You could say that your side are the winners. So the fact that an opportunist would be agreeing with you means that they're trying to be on the right side. But at the same time, you could say that Megyn Kelly never believed the shit she was saying in the past. She was just an opportunist taking a paycheck to say what her boss wanted her to. So why is there any reason to think that's not what she's doing now?
Alex Jones
Right.
Dan
You're just the side that has some billionaire establishment shit right behind it.
Jordan
Right? Yeah. No, it's like. It's the problem with the double agent. Right. I can't trust you. I know you're working for me right now, but you could not be working for me. I don't know. You got to go.
Dan
You got to be there. Over. Single agent is as believable.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
Triple agents. As believable is double.
Jordan
Exactly.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Jordan
There's simply no more ability to trust you. So the smarter move is to just not be around you.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
A double agent, in theory, is the same as a quadruple agent, Right?
Jordan
Exactly. We can do fractions all night.
Dan
Yeah. So Roger's gonna be popping in.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
Give us a little Epstein info. All right. Later.
Jordan
I like it.
Dan
Spoiler alert. Just to not get your hopes up.
Jordan
Everybody was great. Everybody did everything legally and lawfully and is actually super really nice to people. Yeah. That's crazy.
Alex Jones
But Roger Stone's on later. He's one of the sources, and he said I could talk about this a few Months ago, but reluctantly, and I'll press him on it today. But he told me when Trump was President elect, he said, you're not going to get the Epstein stuff. It's CIA Mosad. You know that. Because I've. It's going to be covered up. Plus, they've cherry picked and they've had we're the good guys, a bunch of recycled crap. And I talked to FBI sources, they said, yeah, that's what it is. And so Trump heard that. He was like, okay, yeah, no, no, we're done. There's none of the real meat and potatoes in there, but we know the people, we know who the women say. And it ain't Donald Trump. It's 90 plus 95% Democrats.
Dan
So this is such a huge difference from the character Alex has always portrayed where he's so invested in the hard evidence and the documents. Now he's staking a position where he's trying to preemptively discredit whatever information may come out in the Epstein case and encourage the audience. Just. Just trust the conclusions you've already come to. It really feels like a person who knows that there's really bad stuff waiting to come to light. And that makes sense. There's no chance that Alex trusts Roger Stone. Behind the scenes, Roger is an angry piece of shit who doesn't suffer fools and has worked with dictators doing, like, image control over the course of his career.
Jordan
So stupid to believe Roger Stone.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
To take him at face value, I would believe is your fault.
Dan
You would have to be in a coma to be around him for 10 years and not realize how dangerous and dishonest he is.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
If Roger is telling you, trust me, Trump is cool on the Epstein stuff. You have to know something's up.
Jordan
Yeah, that's. Oh, so he's committed a war crime is what you're trying to tell me.
Dan
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He and Epstein were building a nuke.
Jordan
Yeah, absolutely. There's. Whatever it is, it's worse than I could imagine because I'm not a billionaire and they have so much money they can imagine worse crimes.
Dan
Yeah, yeah. Roger's going to, like, like behind the scenes, like, Epstein is Trump. They're the same person.
Jordan
I mean, why not?
Dan
Yeah, the Kaiser Soze thing.
Jordan
Right. Like, and also, again, if you've actually been pardoned by a guy that's basically a brand on the top of your forehead saying, T like you, he's pro Trump for the good. For the goodest length of time there is, till the end of days.
Dan
Well, it's Interesting, because I think you could. There's. You got to judge it based on the next couple months after you get the pardon.
Jordan
Okay.
Dan
Because someone could lay low and just be like, whew, I got out of that one. I'm going to retire from public life.
Jordan
Smart. That would be the smart move.
Dan
Yeah. But if you are Roger, and you continue to do Roger things and, like.
Jordan
Eventually you're going to bite the hand.
Dan
Yeah. And you're a Trump surrogate and all this stuff. Yeah. You can never trust him again.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
He's a Trump guy. For the rest of his life. He got. He was going to die in jail.
Jordan
Exactly. Yeah. I will do whatever he tells me to because that trumps your claim for, like, truth or honesty. No, I'm alive, not in jail. I know I did. Trump again. God damn it.
Dan
Back to Jar Jar Binks.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
He has a life debt.
Jordan
That's. He has a life debt.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
This. And hissing.
Dan
Yeah. So, look, Alex is mad. He's really mad that Trump just didn't shut up. Just don't say I mean anything. Fuck.
Alex Jones
Now Trump's calling for all of it and wants the DOJ to go after him. The problem is they won't because they're part of the same system. But he should have done this in the last six, seven, eight months because it was the right thing to do and your constituents would love you and back you. Instead, you did the political thing, the Machiavelli thing, and now you're getting the repercussions of it.
Jordan
Repercussions.
Alex Jones
I mean, if you were going to cover it up, like I said at the time, and some people interpreted this, said, look, he's telling him how to cover up now. I said, he should have done it. But I. War game stuff. I said if. I said if you're going to cover it up because I know you're not involved.
Jordan
Shut up. Shut up.
Dan
Passionate.
Jordan
We've all been there.
Alex Jones
Oh, my constituent.
Dan
If you don't.
Alex Jones
If you want to look at Epstein, you're an idiot Democrat, Mark. And you've been conned by them. And you're not maga, just like Mark Levin. And all of. If you don't want to have nuclear war or you don't want to have us tell you what to do. You're anti Semitic and you're not maga. None of you guys were for Trump. I was one of the first people to endorse him. I don't need to hear that from you. Pro shot, pro open border, pro world government, pro censorship. You're not Americans. You're absolute 100% high level Mossad operatives. My God.
Jordan
All of them.
Alex Jones
I bet Levin's a colonel in the Israeli military. I mean, I just cannot take it anymore. And I don't hate you because you're Jewish. I don't hate you because you're Mossad. I hate you because you're trying to bully us and get in our face and acting like a bunch of assholes and then energizing them Nazis. See? Cause I'm actually thinking multi level dumb.
Dan
So to be very direct, what's going on here is that Alex is super mad about the position that supporting Trump has gotten him into and he's trying to redirect that anger at Mark Levin. No one forced Alex to defend Trump. How he has or hire Roger Stone and accept every bullshit thing he says as true. Alex is in the situation he's in because of his choices. And that's really bad right now because they're choices that are incompatible with the character that pretended to be for decades. You can't be the Bohemian Grove guy and then also say that if the President wants to cover up a child sex trafficking ring, he should just shut up. If you ever were the guy you pretended to be. You can't rationalize even a passive cover up of something like this, let alone the very active decision Alex has said Trump made. Alex's brand is essentially shot and Trump did it to him. He has no way to fight back.
Roger Stone
Back.
Dan
That's why Alex is so angry, because he's essentially getting rat fucked and he still has to have Roger on the show later to spin. He's having the guy who rat fucked him as his, as his honored guest.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
For whatever reason, he can't meaningfully lash out at Trump. So everything has to be put through proxies. He's mad at Cash Patel. He's mad at Todd Blanch. These are all just punching bags that he's taking his impotent rage about Trump out on. Like, he can't. He can't. He's like a guy who's in a dream and he can't throw a punch.
Jordan
I mean, it's, it's like, like a literal manifestation of what happens when you tie too much of your own ego up in somebody else's success. You know, like, because this would be tantamount to looking at himself and saying, you have failed. He cannot do it.
Dan
Yep. Yep. Well, I think that's the, that's like the simplest explanation that doesn't require some other outside influence.
Jordan
Right, Right.
Dan
I Mean, I match with his psychology.
Jordan
I mean, I'm sure there are plenty of outside influences, not least of which being a shit ton of money.
Dan
Yeah. There's a constellation of things.
Jordan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dan
But naturally, like, his anger gets redirected towards anti Semitic tropes because that's what his world and information ecosystem has always been built on. It's fundamentally all just kind of like Alex being a baby with a wet diaper. Like he's lashing out. Except that Alex is the baby and Trump pissed in his diaper. He didn't even like wet himself.
Jordan
And Trump is also a baby. Yeah.
Dan
But a rich baby.
Jordan
Yeah, a really rich baby that's allowed to pee on your stuff and doesn't.
Dan
Want to hang out with you. Nope. Because you smell like pissed and you.
Jordan
Won'T stop talking about Bubba.
Dan
So Alex, you know, I think he believes that all right wing people who support Israel and are Jewish work for Israel.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
And are, you know, he has that dual loyal trope. Sure. The thing going pretty hard. And so he, he's like Netanyahu, I gotta give you a warning. And he does.
Jordan
Yeah. Warren. Warren, Netanyahu.
Dan
Yeah.
Alex Jones
Now this has gotten so out of hand and people have turned on Israel so much, I'm gonna warn Netanyahu and I'm going to warn these Mossads. Warning, right now.
Jordan
Warn him.
Alex Jones
I'm giving you my real advice. And I'm known at the FBI, the CIA, everywhere have tried to hire me for my ability to understand this stuff as a top analyst. I mean, seriously.
Jordan
And God powers.
Alex Jones
But you don't have to be that smart to know this. You're not. If you actually trigger this, you're not going to get out of it. You think because you got nuclear weapons this is going to end up okay? You're going to get Israel destroyed and probably the rest of the world with us. So with us, with humanity.
Dan
So it's funny, because that slip that Alex made there where he used the word us to refer to Israel, it doesn't really mean anything. But the fact that Alex knew he needed to correct himself does tell you something. He knows that this is exactly the kind of clip that the avant garde Nazi types he's been buddying up with would use against him to bolster their claims that he works for the Jews. And that's why he has to be like us. I mean, humanity.
Jordan
I mean, listen just, just to the, the body of the paragraph there, man. If anybody can get out of it, Netanyahu, he's still in charge. Do you know what he's been through for the past, like, five years to stay in charge.
Dan
There's been some bad press, like, oh.
Jordan
My God, he's committed crimes and been guilty of them, and he's still in charge. This is crazy. How has he pulled all this off? He's also committed war crimes while he's not even supposed to be in charge of things.
Dan
Yeah, yeah.
Jordan
I mean, still in charge.
Dan
Yeah. And I think that Alex warning, you know, hey, don't set off any nukes. It's Evergreen advice to all world leaders. Don't do that.
Jordan
I would recommend it, but I think.
Dan
That he has a fundamental inability to differentiate between the state of Israel, support for Israel, someone who's Jewish.
Alex Jones
Yep.
Dan
And he's. I think he just thinks that, like Mark Levin, Ben Shapiro, all these people are Mossad agents and might as well be in the government.
Jordan
Yeah. Let me ask you a question. All right. Nukes, very bad, right?
Dan
Sure.
Jordan
What if we filled one with confetti?
Dan
Maybe?
Roger Stone
Fun.
Dan
I think it would still be really destructive, though, right?
Jordan
The confetti?
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
No, I mean, just a bomb dropping.
Jordan
Yeah, that probably. But from a distance, up in the air, it would look like the best part.
Dan
Well, I think, you know, if you had no concept of an explosion.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
A mushroom cloud might look pretty cool from a distance.
Jordan
I mean, it looks very cool from a distance, I think.
Dan
Interesting shape.
Jordan
Imagine that shape, but with confetti. I don't see a downside to this idea.
Dan
Okay. All right, work on it.
Jordan
I. Okay.
Dan
I look forward to making the next Oppenheimer about.
Jordan
I suppose.
Dan
So.
Roger Stone
Look.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
Trump is covering up Epstein stuff, and I've been tough on Alex about how he's accepted this.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
But in this next clip, Alex gives a pretty good reason for why he's okay with it.
Jordan
Okay.
Dan
And I do have to change my tune.
Alex Jones
Uh.
Dan
Oh.
Alex Jones
Johnson's like, no, go ahead, vote. Release it all now. The Democrats were like, yeah, don't release it all. Just cherry pick. Get it out ahead. Oh, Trump. Trump kicking him out of Mar A Lago. Oh, Bannon coming and meeting with him once for a TV interview that we've seen clips of. See, now you get what they're doing. And I knew this beforehand. So why did Trump say kill the investigations? Because all the billionaires came to him. Them and the rich Democrats and the heads of universities and hedge funds that said, listen, this is old, and a lot of it's just innuendo, and we want to work with you. Can we just. And then do you think that the Democrat Party would ever abide by a deal they made with you. I mean, you always tell the snake story of the frozen snake, and the lady picks up and warms it up and bites her, and she says, why'd you do that? Well, I'm a snake.
Dan
I'm a snake. Hey, can Alex even hear himself? He's supposed to be the first guy who ever covered the Epstein story. And the dude was running a pedophilia in blackmail ring that controlled pretty much every world leader, elected or otherwise. It's the key to unraveling the control network that explains every conspiracy he pushes. So anyone that could possibly be a good leader would have to dismantle that. But now Trump's covering up for the Epstein shit because billionaires asked him nicely. Alex doesn't realize that if it's possible for Trump to agree to do that because billionaires asked him, then Trump is a monster. Yeah. What's happening here is that it's become essentially undeniable that Trump is covering up the Epstein shit. And as much as Alex's political world is based in rejecting a universal reality, this one's not possible. Trump's actions are so overt and otherwise inexplicable that even the most loyal Trump subject can't pretend that he's being honest about this. Like, Trump's not being cool about this.
Jordan
No. We are literally at the Borgia's territory of popeness. Like you guys are going to. Honestly, if you keep doing it this poorly, you'll have a reformation. That's how shitty you are. You're talking about Borgia shittiness.
Dan
Yeah. And, like, it's just like a unspinnable. Like that box.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
It's. You can't. Everyone can see it.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
You can see that you're in it. You know, there's no denying it. It's. It's. It's not a mime's construction.
Jordan
We are past you sitting on the thing and people throwing balls to make you fall into the water. You have fallen into the water.
Dan
Yeah. And you can't yell fake news. No one gives a shit.
Jordan
You're wet.
Dan
So Alex is trying to come up with ways to excuse this undeniable reality, but it just doesn't work. There's no acceptable reason why someone who's the leader that Alex has made Trump out to be would ever agree to cover up a child trafficking ring on behalf of the billionaires who were involved in it. By conceding the point that Trump is covering this up, Alex has indicted him of an inexcusable crime. And yet Alex is trying to make excuses for him.
Jordan
Well, when you put it like that, it does sound inexcusable. But if you think of it this way, actually, he's very smart. See? See? Actually, he's very smart.
Dan
Oh, I do now.
Jordan
You can't.
Dan
I didn't think of that.
Jordan
Yeah. You can't be mad at him because actually he's very smart.
Dan
Get me Roger Stone.
Jordan
Exactly.
Dan
I need him to reassure me. So, Alex, you know, he's really, really mad that Trump is covering this up and that he can't deny that. Because the fact that he can't deny it means that he has to play the game that he's playing.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Which is kind of like you're trapped somewhere and you have to cut off your own arm to escape, you know?
Jordan
Yeah. I mean, it should be, but it's. It really is just a breach of contract. Right. You know, like there's an unspoken contract between all of us propagandists and Trump. Trump gets to do whatever the fuck he wants. We lie about it. As long as you know the. The rules of the contract are held, you're in breach of contract. Go fuck yourself. You know, it's like, that's what it has to be.
Dan
It's upholding kayfabe.
Jordan
Yeah, absolutely.
Dan
It's. It's what Alex talked about on another episode a little bit ago where he's like, we're your media surrogates. Leave this to us. Shut up. Yeah, you know, like, Trump didn't abide by. Yeah, whatever that unspoken contract is.
Jordan
When you step on a bear trap, the bear trap isn't like, ah, are you sure you want me to bite your leg? Like, I don't. Because, like, what if you're a nice guy, but on the inside, no, it just snaps.
Dan
Yeah. So Alex kind of snaps a little bit, too. And there's just like a lot of angry yelling for a bit.
Alex Jones
You got the tiger by the tail. You've got the problem. I am the detonator of the revolution you see around you, and you knew it. And my work has just begun. So feel your hand. You want a war, you got a war.
Dan
Up his catchphrase, me.
Alex Jones
And been enjoying yourself in your arrogant perch that you're part of the power structure. Invincible. You are scum. You are losers. You are gremlins that fed on this country when she was asleep. Well, she ain't asleep now, bitch.
Jordan
Sure.
Alex Jones
So let me tell you about the real mafia of populism. Let me tell you about real power that comes from real People with real guts and real bones and real morals. If you think hurting and attacking people like me and the American people are now awake will make us go away, please continue and you will continue to find out.
Jordan
Okay, Sounds very heavily.
Alex Jones
We have only begun to fight.
Dan
I'm convinced.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
This. This is inspiring.
Jordan
Yeah. I don't remember too many. Like, okay, so if you think about the St Christian's Day speech, you know, very famous speech, general thrust, being like, hey, people who don't die here are going to be like, oh, I wish I had died there. Very inspiring. Written by Shakespeare. At no point in time do you hear him go.
Dan
Long pause. Yeah. Great. Orators of the past did not growl as much as Alex does. It's a stylistic thing.
Jordan
I think it is a little bit. Whether tis no blur. No.
Dan
I think that it's also too obvious that this is anger that he feels towards Trump and it's just being yelled about other people.
Jordan
Transference is very.
Dan
Yeah, I think it's way too obvious.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
And I feel bad for him.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
The thing should just lash out at Trump.
Jordan
The thing about a Mad Libs is that there's a bunch of different things that you can put in there. It's not just all, I'm very mad at Trump, but I can't see it.
Dan
So Alex has got. You heard a little laugh there at the end.
Alex Jones
I did.
Dan
He has. He has a mirthful thought, and that is, holy shit, the future exists.
Alex Jones
And like a boa constrictor, we're wrapped around them and they think they got us. We got the. And we're just squeezing.
Dan
Sure.
Alex Jones
And squeezing.
Jordan
All right.
Alex Jones
And we get stronger and you get weaker. Okay. So you just believe your little MSNBC bubble. You just stay in your little bubble. You just wear your little virtual reality goggles and just live in your little fantasy land all you want. But while you're doing that.
Jordan
I'm gonna.
Alex Jones
Your wife moving. And we've just begun to move. And if you think you're in trouble now, you haven't even begun to run in to the next wave that gets here in about a year. You think you can discredit, remove Trump and stop us. That's hilarious. You can take our purity and get us to attack Trump and get him out of the way for you. That's a symbol of how good we are and how strong we are. Now. We're not going away. You see our purity as weakness. No, it's our strength.
Dan
I think Alex is talking about the midterm elections, which actually makes a lot of sense.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
He says like an. In a year.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Jordan
Yeah, that's kind of what I was assuming.
Dan
That's the next time the Republicans can lose some power to be able to credibly rile up the base by acting like victims. Alex is probably thinking that the Democrats will take back the House and impeach Trump over the many crimes that he's.
Jordan
Committed, all the crimes that he's committed to.
Dan
And then all the Trump surrogates in the media, like Alex can pretend it's all political persecution. So everyone needs to shut up about how Trump is covering up the Epstein stuff. Sure. Alex is dreaming of a future that mirrors like 2018, because that was a great time for him as a media surrogate.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
The storylines were simple back then. Like the kind of stuff you'd read in a children's sci fi novel. Very obvious heroes and villains. And that's the territory that Alex's skill set fits into. The storylines he's got going on now are way too complicated and it's forcing him to justify why his God anointed ruler is covering up child trafficking and blackmail rings. So it makes sense that he's fantasizing about this simpler time that's to come when they won't control every part of the government.
Jordan
Yeah. I mean, there's, there's gotta be. I don't know, I don't know what to. I don't know what it says about humanity as a whole, but there needs to be a, A, like, separate competence pool. Right. So all of these people love yelling about stuff and they love being like, ah, the government's evil and if I was in government, here's what I would do. But they don't actually want to do the administration. The, like doing it.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Jordan
You know, like the actual doing of it. They want people to go like, they want to say like, oh, I want peace in the Middle East. Make it happen. Right.
Dan
Yeah. Like, at best, like be middle management at a think tank.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
You're not writing up these position and papers and the white papers and stuff, but you're like telling what the intern needs to do.
Jordan
Yes.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
We don't need you.
Dan
You're an id. You're all idea people.
Jordan
That's great.
Dan
What's wrong with all this shit?
Jordan
There should be a whole separate thing where those guys get to have their fun and then they can have like a wing of the government and it's the wing of like, ah, we're acting crazy. But then there's just basic level competence over here. Not a problem.
Dan
Well, I think, I think, you know, in the think tank structure of how a lot of, you know, the government works.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
That is kind of the way things are.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
Except the, the, the thing shit's out of balance now. Where the competence isn't. There's. There's no place for the talkers. And, and, well, that's the thing is.
Jordan
Like, it needs to be an equal. Like, there is another check and balance, and that's just people with competence. Like, if the, if the air traffic controllers are just like, no, that is, that counts. You know, like the air traffic controllers get an equal part of the government where they get to be like, hey, you guys are fucking up, so we're just not gonna work today. And then we have to deal with that. Well, like, it's a competence based.
Dan
Sure. Yeah. No, I do. I get what you're saying. It just. It needs to be in balance.
Jordan
It needs to be in balance.
Dan
Yeah. So Alex is a guy.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
And he's not one like the bad guys. Because the bad guys are okay with COVID ups and he's not okay with COVID ups. Feel like he is, except he's actively excusing Trump doing a cut.
Alex Jones
Sure.
Dan
It's a mess.
Alex Jones
Oh, my goodness. I called it. It wasn't hard to call it it. And I was the bad guy in maga. I was undermining Trump. Oh, I was. Oh, no, we. We need to shut up about Epstein. Well, the majority of MAGA has morals, unlike some of you that I notice people that always say, don't criticize Trump had just jumped on the bandwagon. You're, you're, you're political babies. You don't know what you're talking about. And obviously this is a hot button issue. I've been exposing it since day one. One of the first. It can bring down the whole globalist system, and it's got to be done. And so we're not like you. We're not like Democrats that'll just cover up evil because it's, quote, our party. I'm not a Republican. I'm a populist Christian patriot. And I wanted to, I don't know, the Republican parties of the Tea Party and Ron Paul. And we built that beachhead, and we've done it to a great extent. It's way better than Democrats.
Dan
Okay, so lesser of two evils then. So in that clip, Alex says that he's not like the Democrats who will cover up evil because that defends the party. But his entire coverage of Trump's Epstein response has been an open Acknowledgment that Trump's been covering up evil because that defends his party.
Alex Jones
Right.
Dan
It's great if he wants to pretend that he's not a Republican or any of that shit, but the names are kind of meaningless at this point. The party that would have been thrilled about John McCain or Mitt Romney that we would have called the GOP. That doesn't exist anymore. No. Trump has turned what used to be the GOP into a cult of personality. And if Republicans want to exist in the future, they're going to need to take the party back or split away. Alex is loyal to Trump regardless of how involved he is in covering up evil. So in effect, he's heir to the corpse of the Republican Party, which he has ridden along to the destruction of.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
If Alex wants to be convincingly populist like he says he is, he needs to come up with a better excuse for why Trump covered up the Epstein stuff than the billionaires asked him to. That seems a little soft on the elites.
Jordan
I mean, a little bit. That kind of gets rid of populists. And I would. I would also say patriot can't be a patriot to international global billionaires.
Dan
Not great Christian?
Jordan
No, very not Christian.
Dan
His Christianity is weird.
Jordan
His Christianity doesn't count as most religions.
Dan
Yeah. His Christianity is kind of worshiping the devil.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
His populism is basically the elite.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
And his patriotism is not patriotic.
Jordan
None.
Dan
Cool. Yeah.
Jordan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dan
So this next clip is part of my. I have a fascination with Alex's engagement with. With James Bond. Yeah. And so I like to. I like to poke a little bit whenever he brings up something from James Bond. All right.
Alex Jones
I mean, I've been in these meetings when at the time, we're just kind of. The world's lawyers are trying to buy me off. They got me there under another pretense, and they're like, are you working with the GS79 Q4 group, or is it the BL? And the Q did go Q. He said Q. They've been calling super top secret stuff q on the OSS from before World War II. That's why they call James Bond's technician Q Dumbos.
Dan
Dumbo.
Jordan
Dumbos.
Dan
The character Q doesn't appear in any of Ian Fleming's Bond novels, just in the movies. No, in the original books, there are some references to the Q branch, which was the place that came up with his fun gadgets. Sure. Fleming based that department on Charles Fraser Smith, who was an inventor during World War I. He built things that came to Be called Q Devices because he was enlisted on a British Q ship which were named after the port that they originally deployed from, which was Queenstown in Ireland.
Jordan
Fun.
Dan
Also, Q isn't really a person in the James Bond movies. It's like a role within Ms. Like a title. Yeah. Yeah. The name is Q. Partially as an homage to Fraser Smith and partially because his job is quartermaster.
Alex Jones
Yep.
Dan
I just don't know how much like. Like Alex. I don't know how he handles being around so many stupid fucking people all the time. They can't tell the difference from reality and fiction.
Jordan
I just.
Dan
Dumbos.
Jordan
I just appreciate that. I have no doubt he has told other people this and they have been like, wow, that's so interesting.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
That. No point in time have they been like, you are making that up whole cloth because you are so lazy. You would rather make up a story than just look up. Why is it called. You could just Google, like, why is it called Q? And then he would tell you the whole fucking story.
Dan
It's. It's like the kind of tidbit you throw out drunk at the bar.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And everyone just kind of goes along with it because no one wants to fight.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And it's what his show. And why not?
Jordan
Why not? It seems like if that's your thing, what a weird thing for you to lie about. So, yeah, we'll just go along with it. We're your friends. You wouldn't just lie about Q to your friends for no reason.
Dan
Right, Right. And it doesn't matter. It's James Bond.
Jordan
But Alex would absolutely lie to you for no reason.
Dan
Yeah, he does. On his show all the time.
Jordan
All the time.
Dan
So he's also the best.
Jordan
That's true.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
At what?
Dan
Everything.
Jordan
Oh, that doesn't matter.
Alex Jones
Other intelligence agency visits and things too, including foreign ones I've mentioned, because they went and got the database of my family and, you know, some of the stuff they've been involved in, but they never told me anything other than the government's corrupt and evil and you can't trust them.
Jordan
Sure. That seems like a lot.
Alex Jones
So I didn't grow up around all, you know, political science books and military books and engineering and, you know. But I was never told any of this stuff. I was just told how the world works. So I was in the right soil with the right mind and the right background to be a futurist, analyst, expert of experts. The best. And I don't say that as a power trip. The enemy already knows I'm the best. Steve Bannon says I'M the best. And I don't know, he's super smart. There's a few of us, okay, But I am the best. I'm as good as it gets, boys and girls.
Dan
Oof. Sure would be a shame if that guy who validates Alex's ego so well just happened to be friends with Jeffrey Epstein.
Jordan
It would be. Yeah.
Dan
It hate to let something like that get in the way of being able to feel like the best in the world.
Jordan
It'd be a real problem.
Dan
It's fun to think back on how much Alex used to hate Steve Bannon back when Roger was feuding with him. Maybe part of Roger's pardon agreement was that he and Bannon had to make nice. Like, it would explain the change in overall tone.
Jordan
Well, you know, it did happen around there.
Dan
I think it might. I think the timeline might not match up totally.
Jordan
Well, he was in prison for a little while, so.
Dan
Yeah, I don't know if the pardon timeline works out, but whatever Roger thinks of Steve Bannon is what Alex thinks.
Jordan
Of him, it does feel that way. Man. I can't believe that you. You know, okay, here's what's. Here's what's, like, underlying things with this whole idea of if Trump does this, it'll take down the government or, like, too many people, or yada, yada, yada. Like, at the end of the day, if you truly believe that our government, which has a total of what, 565 people in Congress or 465, whatever it is, and then you've got the executive branch, and then you've got the judicial branch, so there's like fucking 500 people. If you think that more than 251 of those people are actively involved with Jeffrey Epstein, then the whole government needs to go. Right. Like, if more than half, then it. Then it's too many, period. Yeah, right. Like, that's just not possible.
Dan
Yeah, definitely. And there is no real functional way to do that without, like, let's start over.
Jordan
Absolutely.
Dan
And look, I mean, the government, like, let's make a new government or whatever. Sure. That obviously, I think, realistically, is not something that would go well the idea of it. But at the same time, where did our government come from? That's the problem created it. It's not like we can't hit a hard reset or something.
Jordan
Here's what's crazy. We all learn about it and we all read about it, but they banged out the whole government in less than a year. That's not okay.
Dan
People are able to collaborate, coordinate, negotiate. Like, there Are there is a capability for that.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And like, the idea of, like, I don't think, I don't think it's gonna happen. Sure. I think it would be a mess.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
But the idea that, like, a new constitution could be written isn't impossible.
Jordan
Absolutely. We banned drinking in the whole country 100 years ago. Go drinking.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
That's what we love to do.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
We can get a new. We can get a new country. It feels easier than banning drinking now. Sure, sure.
Dan
And I will say that this, this does feel a lot different than the position I would have had, like, five years ago.
Jordan
Sure, sure.
Dan
I think my, my horizons have been widened.
Jordan
That'll happen.
Dan
So Trump, his base is cool. Not like the Democrats. They suck. They're all dumb.
Alex Jones
And so we need Trump to succeed. But that said, Trump's base is not like, on average, the serve all Democrats. They're more sophisticated and they're based on.
Jordan
Moral.
Alex Jones
Guidestones that they expect. So Trump went down like six, seven points. We had the pollsters on there, very accurate. Like Mark Mitchell when he said, if you're, if you want Epstein out, you believe that, you know, you're, you're not Maga, you're not in our movement. Well, that's like 95 of your base. I mean, you know that you're, that's like you've been happily married 10 years, and one day you just come home and beat the out of your wife and you wonder why she's leaving you. I mean, that was, I mean, this is like. I mean, maybe you can knock her upside the head a few times. She forgives you the first time you go to counseling. But. But I'm like, don't beat us up.
Jordan
Anymore or don't tell that story station.
Alex Jones
Wagon with the kids and leave. I mean, that's my analogy.
Dan
Yeah. I mean, like, it's gross to hear from someone who, you know, has been accused of domestic violence.
Jordan
The exact things. Yeah.
Dan
So I think it's a pretty good analogy, though, for the way Trump treats his followers. Like, even Alex can't find a good way to articulate it without describing domestic violence.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Alex thinks that he's making the point that Trump's base is more sophisticated than Democrats and that they have moral principles. But really what he's saying is that the elements that make up Trump's base actually hate each other, but they had a flimsy truce that's now broken. The Nazi wing hates the right wing Israel supporters. The white nationalists hate the pro immigration big business interests on the right. The conspiracy Folks hate everyone who thinks running a government isn't as easy as posting on a message board. They all hate each other.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
Most of them put aside these really obvious feuds that they have with each other in the name of gaining power and fighting the imaginary enemy of woke antifa leftists. But now that they've taken all of the power, each of these factions wants it for themselves. They want to be the next wave of what the Trump movement becomes. And I'll just spoil what's next for them. It's whatever the billionaires want.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Maybe J.D. vance, but basically someone like that who's backed by folks like Peter Thiel and Elon Musk. Trump can't legally run again. And if each of these factions insists on some ideologically pure candidate that serves their niche haters, then a Democrat's gonna win in 2028 if there's an election.
Jordan
I was gonna say.
Alex Jones
Yeah, yeah.
Jordan
That's the. That's the race against time. Right. Like, that's what they're. That's what I mean, if. If I'm. If I'm one of them trying to play the game that I feel like is laid out in front of me. Right. So imagine I'm the player.
Dan
Is this a Game of Thrones?
Jordan
It is a little bit like a Game of Thrones.
Dan
Chaos is a ladder.
Jordan
Right. Right. If I'm the player here and I'm looking at what they're. What they're doing, then it is all a race against time to get rid of the electoral democracy, essentially, and replace it with something like Russia's, you know, very controlled, totally democracy. Democracy. That's the. That's the idea. And if you can't do that in three years, you're fucked. Right. So it feels like that is what they should be focusing on at all times. So I don't. I mean, like, that's kind of why. I don't even understand why they're bothering with the Epstein stuff. If it's me, I'm just going like, we need to erode everything.
Dan
Well. Cause I think that the mainstream of the GOP is already doing that.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And so you don't need to advocate for that, because people like Mike Johnson and Trump and all of his cabinet are doing that already.
Jordan
They are.
Dan
They did Doge, for fuck's sake.
Jordan
They gave it a shot.
Dan
Yeah. So they're already doing everything that you need to do on that institutional front.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
And so what you want to do is you want to stake out your position of why you are the pure new Tea Party. Or whatever that will be able to wield this power in the future. You want to. You want to. I mean, I hate to do more Game of Thrones shit, but you want to stake your claim as the rightful heir, right?
Jordan
Right.
Dan
Naturally.
Jordan
Of course. No, no. But I mean, that's kind of where we're at, is they've taken, Imagine a government that we all kind of processed and understood as being a nuanced series of complex systems that all interweaved to try and just make our days happen and turned it into, like, okay, this person is angering me, so I take their fiefdom away for the day. You know, like, that's where we're at.
Dan
Yeah. And I think they fail or whatever. You know, Alex's, you know, milieu of folks fails to recognize is like. Like, all you really want is an asshole.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
Like, if they just replace Trump with another that you could project your, like, weird beliefs onto, you'd be perfectly happy. Yep. So.
Jordan
And they don't need to do government. Like, you're not paying attention to the government they are doing. So just let somebody be an asshole and somebody else do the government.
Dan
Yeah. You know, and I think that they should. If the. If the folks on the right were wise, I think what they would do is start trying to cultivate a really fun asshole.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Because, like, Nick Fuentes is leading some sort of a faction.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
But he's never going to win over certain parts of the right wing.
Alex Jones
Nope.
Dan
Marjorie Taylor Greene is leading some kind of faction, but she's never going to get some parts of. They're never going to be able to. To create that coalition that Trump has. And they need an asshole.
Jordan
And Rogan doesn't have the interest.
Alex Jones
No.
Jordan
He's too fucking rich and lazy. Yeah.
Alex Jones
And I think.
Jordan
Why would you.
Dan
I think he understands that he, like, might get killed.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Like, I think he understands the added risks of entering that arena.
Jordan
I mean, it's. It's just basic, you know, like, there's no situation where Rogan has anything better than what he has right now. Unless he has a megalomaniacal need for power.
Dan
Yeah. Ironically, if he becomes president, he becomes less useful to the people who facilitate him.
Jordan
Absolutely. And I mean, it's. It's interesting how stark it is of like, that Joe Rogan is not pursuing power. Should tell you all you need to know about people in Joe Rogan's position who do pursue power. They're psychopaths.
Dan
Yeah. They should just start a dumb comedy club.
Jordan
Absolutely not Woke. You're not going to bother anybody. You're going to have fun.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
Gonna be great.
Dan
So someone who's been bothering people, is that Elijah Schaefer?
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
We talked about on the last episode. Guy hates Indian Americans.
Jordan
What a wild. Yeah, go for it, man.
Dan
I guess he mentioned in his discussion of his lawsuit, like, Cash Patel's girlfriend is suing him.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
He mentioned that he brought Max Blumenthal from the Gray Zone into, like. He's like, hey, man, look, I got sued by. So Max has been covering.
Alex Jones
Right. Great.
Dan
And I think because of that, Max Blumenthal ends up on Infowars.
Jordan
Oh, my God.
Dan
So Alex is gonna interview him, and I think it's mostly predicated on the. Elijah.
Alex Jones
Yeah. So I'm gonna shut up now. We only have, like, 30 minutes. 35 minutes. Max Blumenthal, great journalist. Really smart guy. The Gray Zone dot com. He broke the Elijah Schaefer stuff, and he's again joins us right now. Really appreciate him coming on with us.
Dan
It's an interesting guest because I don't think Alex knows anything about him or at least fundamentally doesn't understand how different their positions are.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Jordan
I don't think I know anything about him.
Dan
I am not an expert. Okay. But I think that he is definitely more of a guy who has strong criticisms of, like, CIA shit.
Alex Jones
Sure.
Jordan
Does he fancy himself, like, a real journalist, too?
Dan
Yeah. Intercept. He's Greenwald.
Jordan
Oh, he's that kind of asshole. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Yeah, I gotcha.
Dan
But like I said, I don't know enough about him to speak, like, authoritatively.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
On what his positions are.
Jordan
Gotcha.
Dan
But generally, he's that kind of guy who's like, yeah, everyone's attacking Maduro, but that's because the CIA is trying to destabilize his government. Blah, blah, blah.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
So they have, like, a massive departure in terms of a lot of their international understanding. Right. But also, he is clearly a shithead and like. Like a bad political set domestically.
Jordan
Yeah. We're.
Alex Jones
We're.
Jordan
We've got two. Not necessarily compatible fictional worlds, but not necessarily in active conflict. Fictional worlds.
Dan
No. And certainly ones that have had reason to overlap a lot more. Yeah. Before this bombing of Iran. And the Epstein stuff has completely blown up Trump's fragile hold on all these different groups.
Jordan
As Alex put it, if Trump had just shut up.
Dan
He just shut up.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
So I think that it becomes pretty clear quickly that Alex does not really understand the difference of opinion that he and his guest have.
Alex Jones
Okay, where do you want to start? You agree we're going into MAGA civil War. You want to start with the Elijah Shaver suit. You want to start with the Epstein stuff because it's all interconnected. Where do you want to go?
Dan
I don't even know even know if we can call this a civil war. It's like the base against the donor class. And all the phonies that the donor class has just. Has just put out there. It's the 99% of MAGA against the 1%. That's the way.
Alex Jones
I mean, it's a literal class war. The real populist movement that took over part of the Republican party is now at war. Or with the Republican establishment. That's uniparty. Holding on by its fingernails.
Dan
And something I do want to talk about at some point, but I think we should cover everything that you got the floor.
Alex Jones
I'm going to shut up right now.
Dan
But they. Donald Trump is being pushed by Marco Rubio, one of the co authors of tps, to attack Venezuela. He's about to destabilize South America and cause another massive migration wave and a civil war in South America. They're lying about Venezuela being a narco cartel government. The cocaine and fentanyl is not coming from there. It's coming from the west coast, from countries that are allied with the U.S. so Alex got really excited about that MAGA people versus MAGA donor class line that Max dropped. But I don't think that Alex did any homework on his guest because Max is saying that Trump is part of that donor class. He also completely disagrees with Alex about fundamental matters of reality, like the stuff about Venezuela. So Alex whiffed on this booking. I don't care for Max Blumenthal, but he has a brand to maintain. So when Alex gets into a conversation with him, he's not just gonna. Yes. And everything that Alex says, like one of his normal dipshit guests who's just like, happy to be there. I mean, Viva Fry will say whatever the fuck Alex wants. Yeah, Max, not so much, considering the.
Jordan
Way we view airtime and advertising at this point. Alex's show is a donor show. Like it is him donating money and time to Trump. So he is also in that donor class.
Dan
Alex has said he's a media surrogate.
Jordan
Absolutely. And he's really rich.
Dan
Yeah. No, I mean, it's a. It's a telethon ongoing for the advancement of Trump.
Jordan
That's how it's going to go.
Dan
Yeah. So their interview is not like it's not groundbreaking.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
And I think that Alex really does not fully grasp what Max is going With.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
A lot of it is anti Israel stuff and it feels a bit like some of that shit drifts into some pretty anti Semitic territory. Sure. But I don't know enough about Max to say like what his foundation is. And he's also a Jewish American and I don't know, like, I don't know what his perspective is.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
So I don't want to speak on that. But it does. Like there's something very notable about him and Alex.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And that is that you heard even in that last clip, he's complaining about Marco Rubio.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
And when Max has criticisms of Israel, a lot of the time that does include Christian Zionist right wing figures.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
On the right, like Marco Rubio or like RFK Jr.
Jordan
Right. Everybody who's like holying the land and hating the people.
Dan
Right.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Whereas with Alex it's always Mark Levin, Ben Shapiro, Josh Hammer. It's all Jewish Americans. Yes. And that like, I'm not saying that Max's critique are less coming from a place of like, sure, sure, sure, sure. But it's pretty, it makes it glaring how much Alex is off.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
So Alex is like, he, he's not grasping that Max's position is mostly anti Trump.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And like Trump sucks. This guy's a piece of shit. Yeah. He's going to go bomb Venezuela.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
The fuck are we doing? He's allowing the CIA to cover up the massage shit.
Jordan
Very smart.
Dan
With the, the Epstein stuff. And so Alex has like a final question for him that just does not grasp the negativity.
Alex Jones
In closing, looking at the COVID up of Epstein now you've got the FBI covering up crooks and people helping him. You've got this rapid response team and it's all unraveling. Turns out they did have all this Internet data and metadata on crooks. Said they didn't. That's all coming out from our own reporter and she's coming on later. I mean, this is, this is disintegrating very, very quickly. How do you expect the Democrats to play this? I mean, what are the different possible outcomes of this? Let me ask this. I should have said that. How does Trump extricate himself from this?
Dan
So Max, his point is, generally speaking, like, Trump is bad. This is bad.
Jordan
He cannot extricate himself because himself is the problem.
Dan
Right. And that really also highlights this difference that Alex is like asking him, how do we save Trump? Yeah.
Jordan
How do we get it?
Dan
He doesn't understand or doesn't grasp in the moment of the interview like that. It's just. No, there is Made. Yeah.
Jordan
The line has been crossed.
Dan
Yeah. And you should know that, that, yeah.
Jordan
No, that's, that is, that's supposed to be. Again, like, I keep going back to this. That's supposed to be. The luxury of being Alex is when everybody else has to, like, question where the line is, you get to say, my line has already been crossed. You know, like when somebody else goes like, oh, well, I, I, I will still support George W. Bush even though I don't support the Iraq war, because blah, blah, blah, blah.
Alex Jones
Right.
Jordan
The line hasn't been crossed. But if he did this for Trump, for Alex has already been crossed 100 times. Right. You already. I don't even need to ask the question, what's he doing? Don't care. Hate him.
Dan
And, you know, and now that this coalition is, you know, breaking down and there are more people who he would have presumed to be allies who are now like, fuck this Trump shit. Yep. He's going to encounter more and more guests that he thinks are, like, kind of safe workshopping partners.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And instead they're going to be like, no, you should have moved on from this long ago.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
This is, you're holding on to something and it's embarrassing.
Jordan
I'm sure that their personal perceptions prior to the actual talking to him is still kind of modeled on what they think, what they think that Alex should be. So they're kind of going in there. I'm sure he was going in there thinking, like, yeah, we'll talk about Epstein, you know, because it's wrong to have pedophile billionaires run everything.
Dan
Yeah. I don't think most people actually watch his show. Right. So they have a caricature of him in their minds.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
So anyway, Max leaves and Alex decides to start complaining about how this is important stuff.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Mark Levin, he thinks he has a big audience, but he doesn't.
Jordan
Oh, my God.
Dan
He's not as big as Alex.
Jordan
Oh, my God.
Alex Jones
I mean, there are a lot of people in my life that it was just people I've known that a society totally collapsed in Road Warrior. There's no more whatever. And they, you know, eye for an eye that, you know, I, I saw them on the street, they'd have a problem. But I got to think about what would happen if I did the thing I want to do. I can't do that. Plus, they're not even worth it. But it just must feel good to be Mark Levin sitting up there saying he's got the biggest audience when he's not even the top 20. I mean, I've been number one English speaker in the world. Not just news. I've been number one. I'm in the top five.
Dan
Five.
Alex Jones
But it's not like some. It's a responsibility. I'm actually glad I'm not number one now. But then I got to see somebody that's never won the ND500. It'd be like if you never won a Super bowl ring. And I've won like five of them. He's talking about how he's the best football player. I'm like, dude, you ain't got a Super bowl ring. I got five. It's like some guy that never even made the NBA telling me he's Michael Jordan. I'm just like, dude, shut up.
Dan
Up.
Alex Jones
You are pathetic. Sound like a little kid. You got the biggest show. It's just like what you sound like, you know, 10 year olds in the boys bathroom showing each other their dicks. I mean, it's just like, dude, think a little more about what you do, you schmuck. Seriously, man. God help us. Oh, boy.
Jordan
You okay, buddy?
Alex Jones
There's still time to get out of this.
Dan
Oh, my God.
Jordan
No, there isn't. No, just go.
Dan
The long pause before the there's time to get out of this. Makes me feel like, yeah, yeah, you're right. It's there.
Alex Jones
You.
Dan
You've. You can escape it.
Jordan
Okay, so it feels like this. Here's what it feels like to me, right? If you are going to torture somebody, right, you can do the regular torture, you can do the pain, you can do the rack, you can do all that stuff, right? But the real way to truly torture somebody is to edge them for like 10 years and still never let it happen. You know, like at a certain point, that pain becomes so all consuming that you're just like, I can only think about one thing. My existence has been boiled down to the simple purpose of coming one time, and you'll never do it.
Dan
Are you. Are you talking like this because Alex talked about dicks?
Jordan
A little bit. A little bit.
Dan
Getting a little blow on the mind.
Jordan
Dicks are on the mind.
Dan
See, I was thinking like, you can't really destroy someone without giving them the chance to have everything they want.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Because Alex could have everything that he wants if he just would have had the instincts to not go along with Trump for the long haul. And like, he's destroyed himself through this.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Like no globalist or MSNBC host could or podcast that's done a thousand episodes. None of those things could do as much damage to him as what he has to do now.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And he had. And it's a risk because if you were to offer him, like, a choice, if I could go back in time and be like, hey, here's. Here's the choice that you're gonna make, one version of it has to be like, everything is fucking awesome.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And it has to. It has to be your own fault.
Jordan
And he can't. And even if he did go back in time, he would find himself inable to make. Make that same. Like, he would continue to fill this loop because he is just a shitty person. This is just who he is.
Dan
You've brought up something interesting.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And I think that if I were Alex Jones.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
And future Alex Jones visited me, I would not trust him.
Jordan
Absolutely not.
Dan
So even if he.
Jordan
I know me. Yeah. I me even. Fuck you.
Dan
Even if he is giving good advice, like, don't do the Trump shit I don't like, I think it means I should do the Trump. Is this a globalist hologram?
Jordan
Okay, first things first. I know your first response is going to be not to believe me. I'm you believe me. All right. I know your second response to me saying believe me is going to make you believe me even less. I know I'm you.
Dan
Feels like a double bluff.
Jordan
Oh, shit. I'm going to go back.
Dan
You a triple agent or a quadruple agent?
Jordan
Too lazy. I quit.
Dan
So Alex, you know, he's. He's interviewed Max.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
Now Roger comes in.
Alex Jones
Right.
Jordan
And how can we extricate Trump from this? Roger, please. Make it suck less for me to say it's okay to cover up Epstein.
Dan
Yeah, it's definitely. They're more on similar bandwidth.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
But there's something really interesting that happens right at the beginning of the interview, and that is that Alex steals the donor class versus the public thing that Max brought up.
Alex Jones
And so it's an optics issue Overall. Roger, we're two minutes to break, but just give me a prelude. Stunzone.com on where you describe where we are. I think there's really a battle going on between the Republican donor class and the consultant class and the 99%. As Max Blumenthal said of his base. I think the base wants to hear. He's like, I'm helping internationally. Be like, why do you care about international? Because of the facts of Syria. He's totally right, but it's the optics. I think he needs to, you know, stroke. Stroke the cat. Stroke the dog. Tell it. I mean, am I wrong here? We only got a minute to break. Roger.
Roger Stone
Alex, Anybody who underestimates Donald Trump does so at their own peril.
Dan
This is a very interesting moment because Alex has just finished interviewing Max Blumenthal, who's pretty negative about Trump, and now he's pivoting to interviewing Roger Stone, who couldn't be more positive. Some people might look at that and get fooled into thinking that this illustrates a diversity of opinion on this show, but really the way to understand it is that Roger is preaching the party line and Max is there as a consultant. He has some criticisms of Trump, but Alex pretends that the conversation that they're having is secretly about how Trump can get out of this mess. That's everyone else's fault. Max's point about the 99% of the Trump base being in opposition to the donor class wasn't a suggestion of a way out for Trump. It was a very clear thing that Trump was on the side of the donor class. In Alex's mind, this whole thing was just war gaming for Alex. He heard Max say that line, and he immediately recognized that it was good branding. So he's trying to repackage it with Roger and sell it as a way for them to support Trump in the future.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
They can still support Trump if he adopts the optics that he's fighting against the donor class. And all that stuff that the base doesn't like, that's just due to donor class loyalists like Kash Patel and Pam Bondi.
Jordan
You got it.
Dan
The deep state.
Jordan
It's exactly that.
Dan
Alex sees the power of this line in terms of making someone into a scapegoat. So he's taking it.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Like he did with instinctively every other catchphrase that he's ever had.
Jordan
I don't even know if he. I doubt he consciously thought about it. It just happens. Yep, Yep.
Dan
Muscle memory.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
I think this is a really good example of how truth and context really don't mean anything to Alex. These words in that order, triggered something in his brain and made him think that just might work. So that's what they mean now.
Jordan
Yep. No, it doesn't even bother. It doesn't bother him or ever occur to him to think, is any of that true? You know, like, it doesn't bother.
Dan
What does it mean?
Jordan
Right, right, right. Okay. So if Trump and donor class versus 99%. It never consider. It never even crosses his mind. Like, well, Trump is on one of those teams, like, in his head, he can just bounce back and forth whenever you want.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
Know which is more advantageous? Yeah.
Dan
Pretend that you're on the 99 side.
Jordan
Absolutely. Say it. Yeah, I do.
Dan
Yeah. And shut up. Shut up.
Jordan
Lie. Stop lying and let other people do the rest of the work for you.
Dan
Right. Let me and Roger deal with this shit.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
So Roger is trying to deal with this.
Jordan
Of course.
Roger Stone
So look, I, I, this Epstein thing just aggravates the hell out of me because I've researched it, I've probably written more about it than anyone alive, and it is.
Jordan
Sounds true.
Roger Stone
The idea that Donald Trump has some untoward or inappropriate relationship with Jeffrey Epstein or that he spent Thanksgiving of 2017 while he was President of the United States with Epstein is absurd. They've cherry picked these emails in a.
Alex Jones
Map and describe it. You're absolutely right. Let's come back.
Dan
So what Roger is unwilling to recognize because he's deeply invested in Trump Trump is that no appropriate relationship exists. Like with Epstein. You can't have an appropriate.
Jordan
He's a. Yeah, you, you cannot do it.
Dan
No. People who commit crimes, even heinous ones, don't automatically deserve to become shunned by everyone in society, and redemption is possible for people. But Epstein was an unrepentant criminal. He didn't seem to think that what he was doing was wrong, and therefore everyone who knew him and chose to stick around and they had an inappropriate relationship with him by default.
Jordan
He thought he was allowed to, if not commanded to by higher powers, behave the exact way he was doing.
Dan
Mm.
Jordan
Yeah. Yeah.
Dan
Maybe it's fine if you're a guy who, like, works at a shop or something. Maybe you can be friendly with an unrepentant sex trafficker. But it's fucking insane to extend that kind of latitude to someone who wants to be president. It's just not okay. There's no possible context where it's like, hey, look, we, you know, we had a cool friendship.
Jordan
I know. I mean, even the, even the guy in, even the fictional guy, like, we're out at a bar someday and he's like, man, I don't tell anybody this, but I'm actually pretty good friends with Jeffrey Epstein. I'd be like, I don't want to be friends with you anymore.
Dan
No, it's a deficiency of character.
Jordan
That's psycho. Yeah, I guess. Unless he was like, like, I have a weird perverse fetish towards. No, actually, that's worse. Yep.
Dan
I wonder. I don't know. I think it's not possible.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
But I wonder if it's possible to just be like, I fucking hate this guy. I'm just stealing his money. I wonder if that's. I Don't think it is.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Because I think when you get into those echelons of money, people don't just give away money.
Jordan
Yeah. You know, I mean, I wonder if at a certain point, there isn't a situation where it should be an automatic, like, animal response of trying to attack this. Like, you know what I mean? Like, if. If he comes near you, if Jeffrey Epstein walks near you, there shouldn't even be the chance for a conversation. You should, like, animalistically attack him or run. Claw or run. Yeah, yeah. But either way, do you know what I'm saying? Like, you're describing a fight orf flight response. This is not a communicate or, like, what's your position or what. What do you think about what you're doing? Doing? It's either I'm attacking you or I'm never seeing you. The end.
Dan
If he asks you for directions on the street, it's only acceptable to give him directions if you don't know who he is.
Jordan
Yeah. Or to give him directions to a hole with a bunch of fucking spikes in it.
Alex Jones
Yeah, yeah.
Dan
No matter how you slice it. And however Alex and Roger want to spin whatever emails come out, Epstein first got in trouble with the police in Florida about sexually exploiting minors in 2005, and the whole getting kicked out of Mar a Lago shit wasn't until 2007. I can't even imagine what horrible shit Roger knows. Like, he. It's bleh.
Jordan
No, I. This is. This is one of those times where, you know, for the longest time we've all lived in this space of like, these conspiracy theories are ridiculous, all of this stuff is overblown, or it's a distraction from just being in the government. This is one specific thing where it's like, we all know this.
Alex Jones
This.
Jordan
It should be fairly easy to handle, honestly. Right.
Dan
And it's still something that people are succumbing to conspiracy around. And that is definitely true and is not. Like, I don't think anyone is well served by like, you know, playing into that.
Jordan
No.
Dan
But there's also, like, so much more that's going on here than any of the other instances. Pizzagate and all that other shit.
Jordan
No, it's ridiculous.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
So Alex is like, he's trying to push this image that the Democrats don't want the Epstein files released.
Jordan
Sure.
Alex Jones
Now that.
Dan
Now that, like, it looks like it's going to happen, Democrats don't want it. They're trying to stop it.
Alex Jones
So, Roger, why then did Trump go say from releasing. I know, it's a Whole bunch of suits and crap and bull and everything I get. It's. It's not a. It's not a case, not a files on list. It's a bunch of stuff. Why then move to the deer in the headlights and all the stuff that made everybody pique their interest and created the Streisand effect? And where do you see this going? Because I'm sure you know now the Democrats now don't want to vote to release it, and Democrat judges want to block it being released because we know who's in there. The Democrats.
Dan
So the Epstein Files Transparency act passed the House with only Republican Clay Higgins voting against it. And Chuck Schumer called it for it to pass the Senate by unanimous consent.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
Every single Democrat in Congress and all but one Republican voted for this to be released. Previously, Mike Johnson had not sworn in the new Democratic representative who won a special election in September, blaming the delay on the government shutdown. Sure. That Representative Adelita Grijalva ended up being the 218th signature on the Epstein act, which is the number that the House needs to require them to take up a discharge petition.
Jordan
Fun.
Dan
There are 435 members of the House. And of the 218 who signed on for this act, how many do you think are Republicans?
Jordan
9?
Dan
4? Every Democrat in the House said, release that shit. And the only Republicans who were on board were Marjorie Taylor Greene, who Trump went on to attack to the point where she now quit Congress. Lauren Boebert, Nancy Base, and Thomas Massie. Hmm. Any of the other 200 or so Republicans could have signed on at any point and gotten it to the 218 number that they needed. But they knew that Trump was off about this and that he would attack them if they did that.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
So they were holding back and kind of hoping that Mike Johnson could delay seating the new Democratic rep. Or that Trump would be able to scare Marjorie Taylor Greene or sway Boebert away from signing onto this thing when it became clear that this end result was inevitable. Now, then they all voted for it to pass.
Jordan
How that works.
Dan
But if there was another option, it would have been for Republicans and all of the Democrats who were voting for these files to be released. Yeah. And they wouldn't be able to hit their number. This isn't to say that there's no Democratic politicians that are likely to be implicated by whatever gets released. Just that the idea that the Democrats are trying to stop the Transparency act is a shameful fix that Alex is peddling in order to carry water for Trump, who, by Alex's, own admission is covering up the Epstein crimes because billionaires asked him to.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
This is pathetic.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
I mean, it, it tells you everything. Like, it admits everything. At the very least, it admits that the Republicans in power, as it stands, feel like holding Trump accountable would make them so weak that they cannot compete. Right.
Dan
Which is like part of why Marjorie Taylor Greene was like, I'm quitting.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
Is because she's like, in the next midterm, I'm gonna just have Trump fucking with me.
Alex Jones
Yep.
Dan
Like, I.
Jordan
Non stop.
Dan
Yeah. I have put a big. And you know, sure, some of that's a political calculation on her part, but, like, it's true.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
No, all of the Republican people in the House know that.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
They all know that. They would be in the exact same position.
Jordan
No, she's. She is. I don't know. I've. I'm so shocked to compliment her above most of the rest of Congress because this is the right move. You got to go away to come back if. If this blows over.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Jordan
She is positioned one with a lot of money now that she gathered in a very short period of time, which tells you a lot about how great government is. And, and then like, she's got the bona fides to be like, like, hey, this guy sucks again. I can just scream more. I can go back to work.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
It's a tactical position that you can say, like, that is the right call. That's the right call, Nick. Not voting for Trump very publicly in 2024.
Jordan
Totally.
Dan
Like, it's, though it is going to get you some kind of heat and it might look like you're a loser and you're not part of the cool kid table, but it's ultimately the best thing you can do for yourself.
Jordan
Yeah. Think five years ahead. Don't think, Think next month. Like, that's ultimately what everybody is looking at is a bunch of people thinking about next month and nobody thinking like, well, what happens in five years?
Dan
And I think that she probably rightly understands that there's nothing left for her within this government.
Jordan
Yeah, that's definitely true.
Dan
She could probably start a show or something and.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
You know.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Write a book.
Jordan
There is another thing to. There is another argument to be made that she wasn't making the right move so much as she was pushed off at the right time.
Dan
Time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She cut bait.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
It was like your, your fishing line is snagged on a branch.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
Just.
Jordan
Just let it go up. Just let it go.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
Go somewhere else.
Dan
So Roger, he's like, that's all the Dems. It's all the Dems.
Jordan
It's all the Dems.
Dan
The Dems are the ones who are bad here.
Jordan
Makes sense.
Roger Stone
Who really is guilty here? Who was on the island? Bill Clinton, Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell, Treasury Secretary Larry Summers. All Democrats go to the Federal Election Commission records. Who is taking big bucks from Epstein Schumer, the Democrat Senatorial Committee. You won't find any money to Republicans and you won't find any Republicans on the icy leagues.
Alex Jones
7, 8, 9 year old children for John Podesta's entertainment are being lured to a secretive house in the woods in northern New York for his entertainment and for Aleister Crowley time. So it's all over them. It's constant. There's never exactly. This is. This is insane.
Dan
We're doing Pizzagate. Alex is just harkening back to Pizza Gate.
Jordan
I mean, I feel like that should have gotten booze. Yeah. I feel like the people in the studio should be like, boo, yeah.
Dan
Roger should have been like, yeah, come.
Jordan
On, man, don't do it, boo.
Dan
So Roger can yell about Clinton and Larry Summers and how they're Democrats all he wants, but it just doesn't work as a deflection section. No one cares because they're all fine with Clinton and Summers facing consequences too. No one is doing hysterical radio shows trying to defend Clinton or Summers. And if people were, I'd probably think that they were as sleazy as Roger looks. Absolutely like you are defending someone who's in a position of the same as, like Larry Summers and Clint.
Jordan
There are so many people. There are so many people. There's like easily more than 10,000 people. I don't understand why you have to be like, man, this one guy's so special that if we just get rid, like, fuck, get rid of half of these guys, you got another guy that looks exactly like them waiting. Well, right.
Dan
Well, if you're talking about Trump, I think for Roger, it's that they're friends of. He probably knows some shit about him that gives him leverage and for sure is willing to abuse the justice system to get him out of prison for hell.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
So, like, I think for, for, you know, for Roger, Trump is pretty special.
Jordan
No, Absolutely.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
No, again, Roger makes perfect sense. Any. Anybody behaving in Roger's position the way Roger's behaving? Yeah, of course. Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Dan
Yeah. He's a piece of shit and he's doing piece of shit stuff.
Jordan
Yeah. I'm talking about, like, how many other people or like, how Trump or Alex is trying to rally people around Trump and it's like, like, man, just get a new. Just get a new asshole. You know, like we were talking about. There's so many more of them.
Dan
I think, I think that Alex might be like. That's why that little tiny kernel of, like, weird conspiracy thinking gets into your brain where it's like, there's gotta be some kind of blackmail on Alex.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
That Roger has. That's keeping him in line. Because it's so dumb to not leave.
Jordan
I mean, come on.
Dan
But I think maybe, like, the desire to, like, not just find another asshole is that it would reveal how thin the game has been for a decade.
Jordan
Right. You know, like, I know. I, I. And you know what I think that is? There is a certain prejudice I think, that I have there, which is the idea, to me that you don't have it already, you don't have the thinness figured out by now, is an indictment of you no longer of their abilities. You know what I mean?
Dan
Sure.
Jordan
Like, if you can't see it by now, I don't know if you're ever gonna see it.
Dan
No, that's true. That's true. And. And it. I struggle to imagine who Alex's audience even is right at this point. Like, I. I can't imagine someone not finding someone who's a little bit more coherent, makes more sense.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Isn't this embarrassing?
Jordan
You don't have to go far.
Dan
No.
Jordan
Now it's a short walk, man.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Saw people all over that rumble.
Jordan
There's so many people.
Dan
Yep. So Roger talks a little bit about the economy because that's really, like.
Jordan
That's why we're all thinking.
Dan
Fucking talk about Epstein. Let's talk about the economy.
Roger Stone
Food prices have come down. Yes. Gas prices have come down, but food prices are still not as low as they were in the final year of Trump's first term as president. So although things are better. Better, they're not so much better that the American people are yet feeling the incredible job this president doing. It does take time. It does take effort. Take the tariffs, for example. Back in June, we had the first month in which the American people had an actual surplus, meaning the government took in more money than it paid out. That is an extraordinary accomplishment. But the President can't turn around an Ocean Line minor in less than a year. He's been president for less than a year. And these things do take time. I find these attacks on Tucker Carlson to be repugnant, particularly when they're coming from people who were Never MAGA people who supported Ted Cruz for president and then they supported Nikki Haley for president, now they're trying to tell us that we're, we're you and I and people like us who are from Donald Trump from the very beginning, that we're not MAGA people like Tucker Carlson. That is outrageous.
Alex Jones
I agree. And so we need, I'm telling you, five point boost just on this alone. Trump is used to come out and say, I support the First Amendment. I support Tucker Carlson.
Dan
Trump's already been pretty clear that he's hostile to the First Amendment. Alex just pretended like that didn't happen. I'm sure he could come out and say he loves speech and Tucker Carlson now and Alex would swoon. But the whole flag burning thing was, by Alex's own definition, a flagrant attack on free speech. Trump signed an executive order telling the DOJ to prosecute people for burning flags, which is explicitly protected speech. Alex doesn't care about the principles behind any of this shit. It's all a game. And let's think for a second. If tariffs are driving a ton more money coming into the US Government, where's that money coming from? It's not coming from the companies just deciding to shoulder that cost themselves.
Jordan
They don't tend to do that.
Dan
It's coming from you.
Jordan
They tend to make us do that.
Dan
NPR cited numbers from the budget lab at Yale showing an increase on average tax for imported goods to the United States at 18% in November, up from 2.4% before Trump got back into office. That price is getting passed on to the consumer. And the tariffs have shown no sign of encouraging domestic manufacturing and a turning away from imports. It's all just a tax. Oh, also, as of the time that we're recording this, we're still waiting to hear back from the Supreme Court about whether Trump's terror shit is even legal. He might have committed a giant crime.
Jordan
The comical ability for them to do a thing for several years, only then to discover it is illegal is absolutely absurd.
Dan
Well, not several years, sure. But it's also, it's interesting because Roger's argument is essentially that these tariffs are bringing in more money.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
And that's great.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
But, but Trump's lawyers, their argument to the Supreme Court to make the case that this isn't a tax is that it's purely regulatory. Sure. And it is not a revenue thing. Hey, that's just a coincidence.
Jordan
Still further, still further, that revenue from you will not be going to you now. It will be absolutely invested in the pockets of billionaires yeah.
Dan
What I'm saying is essentially like Rogers position would lose the Supreme Court case that Trump is trying to make. Yeah.
Jordan
Oh, that's it. That's, you know, it is, it is kind of interesting now that we have almost pathological reverse trickle down economics. Right. So the imports taxed heavily. We pay for that. Right. That goes to the government. The government gives that money to billionaires. Billionaires then charge higher prices so they get double money coming and going, man.
Dan
Hmm. Yeah. I mean look, it's not good.
Jordan
It's probably bad that this is probably not a sustainable system.
Dan
But you know what? It is populist.
Jordan
That does sound true.
Dan
Yeah. So Roger is a little too positive that'll happen. Alex has to recognize the box he's in. He can't pretend like Trump isn't doing a cover up. But Roger King, I love it. And Alex kind of gets a little bit fed up with him because.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And is. I really think. Listen, listen carefully.
Roger Stone
Yes, I would, I would urge Cash to focus on the mission at hand and drop these lawsuits if he asked for my advice. Look, I think he's a good man. I like him. I supported him for that job.
Dan
Just to clarify, he's talking about like Kyle Seraphin and Elijah Schaefer getting sued by Cash Patel's girlfriend friend for the Israeli honey trap. Right. Mossad operation stuff.
Roger Stone
I don't quite understand what's happening here. But there's a larger mission here and I don't think the President is getting enough credit for taking on the globalists. I don't think he's getting enough credit for shutting down the border. I don't think he's getting enough credit for the, for the efforts in places like Chicago and Washington D.C. let me just stop you.
Alex Jones
I know you do dozens of interviews a day. You're a workhorse. Trump wouldn't be in power without you. Our audience knows the great things he's done. We're. This is a major. This is really on average, very informed people. I'm asking you big picture, what Trump can do PR wise to not let the leftist media focus on schisms and then make those distractions the bigger issues. I'm asking you strategy. If you were talking to Trump about better ways to energize his bank.
Dan
Understood correctly. Alex is trying to very subtly tell Roger to cut the shit. Roger's acting like Alex's listeners are all marks and it's a little too obvious. Alex is trying to be as softball as possible while acknowledging that the Epstein situation is actually happening and Roger can't stop trying to pivot over to praising Trump for other stuff he's done. Like he deserves credit for taking on the globalists. These tariffs are working.
Jordan
Have you not seen the tulips this year?
Dan
Even by infowars standards, this is tone deaf. Yeah, this is the way Roger's coming in.
Jordan
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dan
And to be clear, Trump does have a PR problem, but he has more problems than just that. It's not that the globalists or the left is whipping up division where it doesn't exist. What's happening is that the Trump coalition is broken because they fundamentally disagree with each other. One side is cool with covering up child sex trafficking rings if it means they can hold onto power. The other side is against that. One side believes that all immigration is evil and all immigrants should be forcefully deported because only white people should be here, while the other side understands that our economy and country doesn't function without immigration. One side believes that the category of white can include Jewish people and the other does not. These are not fake conflicts being stirred up to destabilize Trump's base. They're differences that have always been there, but they haven't been a crisis. Their media space elevated too many racists, Nazis, and people who actually won't accept sex trafficking ring coverups. And now the hardliners in these spaces have the kind of audiences that make them relevant, and they pose a threat to Trump's coalition. Trump has a PR problem in that these fights happening between his fans are nasty stuff, and they reveal that a lot of them are horrible people. But his actual problem is getting some of these people to compromise on things like racism or sex trafficking coverups. You're not gonna get these people to compromise. Marjorie Taylor Greene retired from Congress rather than associate further with Trump, who had called her a traitor for signing onto the Epstein Transparency Act. Yeah, in her resignation post, she said that one of the reasons she was doing it was because Trump was going to attack her in the midterm terms, and she wanted to spare people from the ugliness of that. Nick Fuentes isn't coming back onto the Trump team, and he tweeted, quote, marjorie Greene was forced out of Congress by Donald Trump for criticizing Israel and voting to release the Epstein files. In other words, Trump destroyed his biggest loyalist for putting America first. This is why I didn't vote. MAGA is dead. For better and for worse, the extreme right wing has created a certain number of figures that know that their brand relies on them, not compromising, and that isn't going away. There are a lot of. There's a lot of power and money to be had in whoever can carve up the biggest piece of Trump's political corpse. And now that his numbers are dropping enough that even Alex is scared. All of these faction is in the base. They all hated each other all along. They're fine with trying to fight with each other to secure a bigger chunk.
Jordan
Yeah, absolutely.
Dan
That's what's all happening.
Jordan
If the list. Listen, everybody is now lived through a lot of compromises. Pretty sick of compromises. They suck. So now everybody's really into people who don't compromise. And whoever has the most people who don't compromise is the winner.
Dan
Especially among Alex's like, audience who have been whipped up into a frenzy about the idea that there's child sacrifice and blood drinking going on. And in basements around the world that migrants are an invasion force that the left is using to try and, like, overthrow the country. Like, that's the kind of thing that these people have internalized.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
And Alex's position is now being like, let's. Let's negotiate a little bit on some of this stuff. Don't be so hardline on these devil issues.
Jordan
Right, Right. And Roger being like, hey, it takes time. You guys are the guys who said on day one he'll go fuck everybody up.
Dan
I wish I had cut this clip out, but I didn't. But Alex and Roger explicitly say, yeah, he said that day one stuff. But we do. We all knew that was campaign stuff.
Jordan
Great, Great.
Dan
Yeah, cool. We all knew he was a liar.
Jordan
We all know he was lying from day one, from when he's a liar.
Dan
So what I see here is essentially you have a number of these groups that are all turning on each other.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And it's not because of media spin. It's because they hate each other and they always have. And they've put that aside in order to amass power on the right wing.
Jordan
Because they all correctly assess each other as sucking. Yeah, they all suck. They're all know they suck.
Dan
And they're all using each other. And they know the other people are using them too. And they've made an uneasy alliance that is no longer tenable.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
And Alex is like, I guess decided that his best bet is just palling around with Roger and pretending to endure. It's not a problem. Like, the ship isn't sinking. Everything is fine. Nothing to see here.
Jordan
Nothing to see here.
Dan
It's not gonna work. Like I said, I don't even know who could possibly be like an excited Alex Listener anymore.
Jordan
I don't know.
Dan
Unless you're like chemically dependent on shilajit.
Jordan
I mean, I wonder how much of it truly could be at the level of chemical dependence now. Now, for people who are continuing to.
Dan
Pay attention to Alex, there's an emotional like dopamine rush that he probably gives people, but that's like attainable by a lot of other people now.
Alex Jones
You would think.
Jordan
You would think. I don't know.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
I don't know what. I don't know what it is.
Dan
He is a unique cat.
Jordan
Right. But I mean, all the good unique stuff was in the past. I mean. Yeah. We're essentially in. Every far right figure is existing now in the same place where they're like, like, I thought we were cool in the past. And now that I'm reaping, this sucks.
Dan
Yeah. And there's a piece of it almost that, that I can't. I can't quite fully articulate, but there's a feeling that I have where, like in the beginning times of Alex's career, the sellout shitheads were people like Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh.
Jordan
Sure.
Dan
And that was the like whole ecosystem.
Jordan
The monoculture.
Dan
Yeah. They were like, hey, look, we're all conservatives and stuff, but Bush is cool.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
You know, Support the war.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
You know, like they, they went along and made excuses because of their proximity to power.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
And Alex's whole brand was that he was not that he did. He was the alternative to that. And so all of that uniqueness, everything that like, was fun about him and everything that could draw people to him.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
Was based on him being the alternative to that. And now as he's gotten to this stage in his career, he's the Limbaugh.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
He's the sellout shithead who's trying to get you to make compromises with sex trafficking cover ups.
Jordan
He's like Green Day.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
And all these other people are the Alex's. Yep.
Jordan
The young eat the old.
Dan
Yeah. But the old also just eat themselves.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
They suck. Now we're talking about eating.
Roger Stone
Yes.
Dan
Eating. A cheating Clinton said that. I think.
Jordan
I really feel like he did not say that.
Dan
It's a. It's a catchphrase from the Clinton times.
Jordan
I bet he didn't say I would be. I would be hard pressed to find a clip of that, but I wouldn't be against it.
Dan
I really hope it's not like an Andrew Dice Clay joke or something.
Jordan
It does, it does rhyme. Yeah, that's a problem.
Dan
So Eaton, that's What you do with beef.
Jordan
That's true.
Alex Jones
True.
Dan
Now this is the last clip of this episode, all right? Because there's nowhere to go after this. It's over. It's done. The episode's done. You have to walk away.
Jordan
It is the last clip.
Alex Jones
Yeah. Okay.
Dan
And it is also a mic down clip.
Jordan
Okay.
Dan
Alex and Roger have been a little bit snippy because Roger's being too positive. Right. And Alex has passive aggressively told him to cut the shit.
Alex Jones
Right.
Dan
And Roger understands that.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
He gets what Alex is saying.
Jordan
Let's talk press tax.
Dan
And so the two of them are having a little bit of. Of a broiling under the surface. We're not having a great time with each other.
Jordan
Right, right.
Dan
Right.
Jordan
Subtext is important.
Dan
So Alex is talking about his expertise in beef. Oh, and the beef industry.
Jordan
Oh, no.
Dan
And how much they love steaks.
Jordan
So you're saying they're about to have beef?
Dan
No. Oh, no. Oh, this is a gross clip. But it's very funny.
Roger Stone
Also true that we, because of this screw worm epidemic in southern and. And central Mexico. Mexico, which used to supply quite a bit of our high quality beef, is kind of off limits now. There is still quality beef being produced in northern Mexico. And if there is a way to test that, improve its purity, it could be brought back into our markets. But Alex, think if you or I went out, we couldn't get a big juicy steak. I mean, good God, I can't think of anything.
Alex Jones
There's only one thing better. Better than a good piece of ass, and that's probably a ribeye. I'm sorry to be bad, folks. Just, I mean, like, I. I literally sit there like, what's better? Or. Or steak. It's a hard choice. Roger, which one do you like the best?
Roger Stone
Alex, you know what? This is a hard week in Washington, DC. I got to say this. You don't pay me to say it. You didn't urge me to say it. You didn't tell me to say it. This methylene blue stuff.
Dan
That is passive aggressive.
Jordan
That's the best.
Dan
What do you like better, beef or pussy?
Jordan
Oh, my God.
Dan
Both of them are being passive aggressive to each other. Alex asking Roger that question is poking him.
Roger Stone
Yeah.
Dan
And Roger being like, I'm going to do a way over the top and overt sales thing on your show in response to your beef or pussy question. That's passive aggressive.
Jordan
It's be for pussy. Methylene blue, my man. That's what I choose. That's what I choose. My boob.
Dan
My boobs.
Jordan
Christ.
Dan
Yeah, you're you got blue on the mind.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
Methylene blue.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
So look, there's. I was listening to this.
Alex Jones
Yeah.
Dan
And I heard him say, what do you like better? Steak or. And then Roger's response is, says, it's been a tough week in Washington. You're not paying me to say this.
Jordan
I know.
Dan
And I'm like, what answer could that be? Isn't paying him to say beef.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
What is going on? And then Roger just comes in.
Jordan
I know.
Dan
God damn, he's a pro.
Jordan
I was waiting for him to. He was like, oh, it's been a hard week in D.C. you know? You're not paying me to say this. You never pay me to say this. And I'm like, man, man, this is a guy who's famous for liking pussy more than beef.
Dan
True.
Jordan
He's gonna have a. He's gonna have some. Nope. Come back with methylene blue.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
Disappointing.
Alex Jones
No.
Dan
I am not disappointed at all.
Jordan
Of course. Very, very funny.
Dan
I think it's art.
Jordan
It's very funny.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
It's very, very funny. But I also would have appreciated some horrible Roger Stone story that you know is true. You know?
Alex Jones
Oh, yeah.
Jordan
Something like. Oh, I wish I didn't know the details of that, but tell me a little bit more.
Dan
Yeah. There's. There. I bet if he didn't have to pretend he loves Jesus.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
Now maybe he could tell you a fun story.
Jordan
Maybe. Yeah.
Dan
But like, God damn. Like this, that. I know that it's not like them yelling at each other.
Jordan
Right.
Dan
But you do get a sense that they are on each other's last fucking nerves. Alex has a fucking job to do, and he is. Is out of balance.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
With what he's supposed to be doing. And Roger does not give a fuck.
Jordan
All right, so we're on a network. The Alex Jones show. Infowars. It's a new show. Does Hard News tells the truth also, it asks the big questions, like be for pussy.
Dan
Yeah.
Jordan
That's what's important.
Dan
Where.
Jordan
It's what's on the people's minds. Dan.
Dan
Mm.
Jordan
We're doing man on the street interviews. And now that the cuck destroyer is gone, we have. We've lost the answer. We no longer know if it's beef or pussy.
Dan
I like my pussy medium well. I don't know what that means.
Jordan
I have no idea.
Dan
Oh, yeah. But I think you can understand how, like, it's over.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
The episode's done.
Alex Jones
Yep.
Dan
Says something like that.
Jordan
That's the end.
Alex Jones
Yep.
Jordan
Yep. We're all going home.
Dan
No, I have. I Had another clip I even cut of like them being a little bit snarky with each other, but it does not matter.
Jordan
Methylene blue to that. To the answer. B for methylene blue.
Dan
Brilliant. Perfect. It's so ironic too. Like there's a beauty in Roger's awareness that like the meanest thing he could do is an ad right now.
Jordan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dan
Like it's. He gets it. He's.
Jordan
He's an B for your subtext. You're fucking ruining my whole thing by being a graceless shill. Nobody pays me to do this, but I love methylene blue. Subtext. I'm a shill. Fuck you. A shill.
Alex Jones
Yeah, yeah.
Dan
And I think it indicates that, like, maybe having Roger on is going to be a little bit more dangerous territory for Alex than it'd be harder to do.
Jordan
Yeah.
Dan
So he has these people who are like Max Blumenthal who are part of what he imagined his coalition to be and they don't like Trump and Alex is going to have to wake up to that. I think he has Roger and I don't think that's home either.
Jordan
No, not anymore. No, not anymore. Because Trump's not home anymore.
Dan
Nope, nope, nope.
Jordan
He's a man without a country, ironically.
Dan
Oh, well, fuck him, Patriot.
Jordan
Yep.
Dan
Anyway, maybe Texas can become a country again. So we'll be back with another episode about Alex's continuing deconstruction of what it means to be alive.
Jordan
Yes, for all of us.
Dan
But until then, we have a website.
Jordan
Indeed we do. It's Knowledge Fight dot com.
Dan
Yep, we'll be back. But until then. I'm Neo. I'm Leo. I'm DZX Clark. And the mysterious professor.
Jordan
And now here comes the sex robot.
Alex Jones
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air. Thanks. Watching for holding.
Jordan
Hello, Alex, I'm a first time caller. I'm a huge fan. I love your work.
Alex Jones
I love you.
Podcast: Knowledge Fight
Hosts: Dan and Jordan
Original Air Date: November 26, 2025
Episode Theme: Dan and Jordan break down clips from the November 14, 2025, Alex Jones Show, analyzing Alex’s increasingly tangled, frustrated reactions to the ongoing Jeffrey Epstein revelations, the collapse of Trump’s MAGA coalition, bubbling factional conflicts on the right, and the existential crisis facing Infowars as its brand identity unravels.
Dan and Jordan wade through an episode of The Alex Jones Show defined by chaos, paranoia, and confusion. As new Epstein stories surface implicating powerful figures (including, potentially, Donald Trump), Alex Jones is forced to confront an “open secret” that Trump is covering up the scandal—yet can’t stop making excuses, blaming the globalists, Democrats, Mossad, and the “donor class.” The hosts dissect how Alex’s public persona—once the “crusader against the elite”—is crumbling under the weight of his loyalty to Trump and his alliance with Roger Stone.
Memorable moments include Alex and Roger Stone getting passive-aggressive, Alex accusing Mark Levin and other Jewish conservatives of being Mossad agents, and a surreal “beef or pussy” exchange between Alex and Roger. Through it all, Dan and Jordan highlight a deepening split in the MAGA movement and reflect on the right’s loss of narrative control, pointing out the bizarre ways Alex copes, spins, and ultimately flails in response.

"It's weird how much it feels like Alex is trying to argue against releasing the files, but doing it in this like, shitty indirect way. It’s like he’s warning about some horrible thing that's gonna happen if these files are released, which is definitely not what you would expect from the champion against corruption..."

Retaining their trademark dry humor and sardonic wit, Dan and Jordan toggle between amusement at Alex Jones’ antics and serious reflection on the dangers of cultish loyalty, conspiratorial thinking, and the deepening splintering of American right-wing politics. Their banter keeps the mood buoyant even as they dissect moments of real-world significance and personal absurdity from Alex and his guests.
This episode captures Infowars in meltdown: Alex Jones, total kompromat victim, makes excuses for Trump’s cover-up, bickers with Roger Stone, lurches towards overt anti-Semitism, and ultimately seeks refuge in crass masculinity (“beef or pussy?”). Dan and Jordan’s smart, irreverent analysis lays bare the exhaustion and collapse of the MAGA coalition—and the twilight of Alex’s anti-establishment persona.
