Date: December 12, 2025
Hosts: Dan and Jordan
Episode Theme: Dan and Jordan dissect Alex Jones’ emergency Saturday show addressing Marjorie Taylor Greene’s resignation from Congress, Trump’s reaction, and the convoluted drama swirling between right-wing media personalities.
Main Theme / Overview
This episode unpacks Alex Jones’ (and InfoWars’) deeply conflicted, rambling response to Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (MTG) high-profile resignation. With her departure triggering fractures across the MAGA and right-wing media world, Dan and Jordan explore how Jones fumbles between defending Trump, trying to scapegoat DOJ Deputy AG Todd Blanche, and expressing odd personal grievances. The episode is a portrait of MAGA media in crisis as Alex Jones, unable to reconcile loyalty to Trump and admiration for those who "stand on principle," spins out defense mechanisms and metaphors, revealing deeper tensions and decline within the conspiracy ecosystem.
Show Structure & Tone
- Conversational, irreverent analysis: Banter-heavy, with sarcastic asides and extended tangents about cheese, coats, and movies.
- Detailed play-by-play of Alex Jones broadcasts: Dan and Jordan intercut audio clips from InfoWars and break down Jones's confused, combative logic regarding MTG, Trump, and right-wing dynamics.
- Meta-commentary on the alt-right mediascape: Frequent step-backs to discuss how conspiracy culture and its internal power dynamics are shifting.
Key Discussion Points and Insights
1. Cheese, Coats & the “Bright Spot” (00:55–06:21)
- The show opens with light “bright spot” banter—Jordan’s new (green!) coat and Dan’s recurring cheese advent calendar.
- Dan realizes that, after 12 days, all cheese tastes mostly the same to him.
- “[Cheese] is good, is the lesson here.” (Jordan, 03:54)
- “The strongest feeling that I’ve gotten was one of the days I opened one of them, and the cheese just said goat.” (Dan, 04:06)
- The mundane warmth of this segment highlights the looming absurdity of the main content and provides comedic contrast.
2. News Context: MTG Quits, Trump Turns on Her (09:23–15:36)
- Background: Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG), once a fiercely loyal Trump ally, resigns after Trump attacks her for insisting on Epstein files’ release, targets her as a “traitor,” and backs a primary challenger.
- Jordan and Dan’s summary of her resignation letter:
- MTG claims “America First” is not the same as “Make America Great Again”—accuses Trump of selling out, says she won’t be the “battered wife,” and bows out after securing her pension.
- Interpretation:
- Dan: “Quitting is always an option and that breaking with Trump is possible. This is the last thing that Alex needed right now because it only further illustrates how captured his show is.” (14:10)
- MTG’s move exposes how fickle “principles” are among MAGA loyalists and puts Jones in an impossible bind: does he hate MTG for “betraying” Trump, or praise her for sticking to "principles"?
3. Alex Jones' Dilemma: Torn Between MTG and Trump (15:49–26:13)
- Jones’ On-Air Crisis:
- Emergency “Red alert” broadcast—Alex frames MTG as a person of “incredible integrity” leaving because she can’t be part of the “lesser of two evils.” (20:07)
- Dan calls this a huge misstep: “If Marjorie Taylor Greene is resigning because she can’t accept the lesser of two evil stuff, that just means that Alex is making peace with the lesser of two evils.” (20:11)
- Alex publicly flounders, announcing he’ll “have to reflect on this and pray about it,” and claims he’s “inches away from not supporting Trump anymore… but… I love Trump.” (22:23)
- Reality: he’s waiting to see if MTG’s move pays off before possibly following suit—instead of taking a meaningful stand.
4. Blame-Shifting: Todd Blanche and Ed Martin (27:46–32:58)
- Jones attempts to reframe MTG’s exit (and his own discomfort) as the work of “deep state” bad actors, particularly Deputy AG Todd Blanche, who is investigating Ed Martin for leaking DOJ material.
- Dan: “This will be the way that Alex tries to market his own quitting Team Trump. If it comes to that, it will all be Todd Blanche’s fault.” (31:02)
- The scapegoating is transparent (per Jordan: “If he says ‘I’m not getting this [from Ed Martin]’, then… that’s the name he is getting it from.” (21:56)).
- Dan skewers the meta-conspiracy-board dynamics: “There’s no monoculture of, like, conspiracy shit… Now everybody has their own boards… his board is just an option of 100 different boards that are internally inconsistent.” (32:12)
5. Jones’ Martyr Narrative—Persecution Complex (33:10–41:38)
- Jones the Persecuted: Rants about being targeted with grand juries by Letitia James and “deep state” cohorts; says he only speeds “maybe 10 miles over,” brags about 200 “street IQ” (35:05), and claims he’s a victim “fighting for the country.”
- Dan’s Rebuke: “Everyone [at Jan 6th] got away lucky; in many circumstances, that should have turned into a bloodbath.” (36:07)
- Flawed Hero Complex: Riffs that he’d be “fine with the globalists if they were just like Boss Hogg”—but this actually exposes Jones’ comfort with local-style, racist, petty tyranny.
6. Descending Into Metaphor: Dracula, Attack Dogs, and Incoherence (44:11–54:43)
- Escalating Metaphors:
- Jones: “You can pull your pecker out and have me suck it so you feel powerful. I don’t know how to suck your dick, Blanche.” (44:44)
- (Callback to earlier: “I don’t know how to suck Obama’s dick.” [09:44])
- Jones compares Todd Blanche to Dracula, now forced to be in the “sunlight” (public scrutiny), predicting his “metaphorical” demise—metaphor becomes veiled threat: “There isn’t a compromise you can make with Dracula… only thing you can do is kill him first.” (50:51)
- Dan: “Alex can scream about how he can’t suck a dick… but… he can’t say certain things about Trump.” (77:13)
- The aggressive innuendo and stitched-together villains are all attempts to deflect from engaging meaningfully with Trump or MTG’s actions.
7. Irreconcilable Loyalties and the “Freedom” Illusion (54:45–79:01)
- Jones floats the notion he “might stop supporting Trump” but never follows through. He’s trapped as a media surrogate: “There’s no light switch… You got to change your name.” (78:35)
- Jordan: “At this point, regardless of what decision he does make… there was a time to leave. That time passed. So he is responsible. Even if he leaves now, it is meaningless.” (79:01)
- As “freedom of commentary” comes to define online influence, Jones becomes less free—his ties to the Trump machine prevent him from speaking freely, even as he claims the opposite.
8. MTG, Trump, and the Epstein Quagmire (61:53–68:15)
- Alex admits, via “inside baseball,” that Trump covered up Epstein material because “business partners… not him” were involved, and doesn’t want those skeletons out.
- “Trump never touched an underage girl… but he thinks these people are so high-powered, will bring the country down, and his goal is to save the country. We have a disagreement…” (62:00)
- Dan: “If your business partners are deeply involved in money laundering with a guy who ran a sex trafficking and blackmail operation, then you’re almost definitely also involved… This is not the defense Alex wants it to be.” (67:26)
- This rationalization—Trump is corrupt, but so are “the institutions,” and he “just wants to run them”—crystallizes how Team Trump loyalists have normalized criminality.
9. MAGAworld Infighting: Laura Loomer, Women, and Collapse (69:11–74:50)
- Alex lashes out at Laura Loomer for celebrating MTG’s exit, then blames “women fighting” for bringing down empires:
- “Old as the Bible or older, women fighting each other and bringing down empires. I tell you, absolutely insane.” (72:02)
- Jordan: “Name all those empires brought down by women fighting. I’ll take my answer off air.” (72:28)
- Analysis: MAGAworld cannibalizes itself, and Alex’s gendered scapegoating only underscores the lack of any meaningful explanation or accountability.
10. Roger Stone: Alone with the Microphone (74:08–75:02)
- Roger Stone is left confused as Alex simply ghosts from the segment, showing how fragile these alliances are and how desperately Alex is avoiding direct friction with those in Trump’s inner circle.

Summary: The Big Picture
Knowledge Fight #1101 exposes the unraveling of right-wing grifter media logic amid real fractures. Alex Jones is a man cornered by the reality MTG’s “principles” interject into MAGA world, unable to mount a convincing defense—vacillating between prayerful indecision, bizarre, aggressive metaphors, and transparent scapegoating of “the deep state.” The episode is a case study in how conspiracy culture’s “revolutionary” self-image collapses into petty self-preservation, finger-pointing, and confused impotence as battle lines shift and alliances fracture.
Final Takeaways
- Dan: Jones’ conflict isn’t about principles, but about whether following MTG out is “profitable” for him.
- Jordan: The time for “leaving Trump” with integrity is long passed. Jones is irredeemably complicit now.
- Metaview: MAGA media’s power has fractured—there’s no more monoculture; internal policing is impossible as everyone scrambles to maintain influence, shifting blame and alliances with increasing desperation.
