Reddalert, Reddalert, Reddalert, Red Alert, Reddalert, Red Alert, Reddalert, Reddlert, Reddler,

Knowledge Fight,

Dan and Jordan, I am sweating.

KnowledgeFight.com.

It's time to pray.

I have great respect for knowledge fight.

Knowledge fight.

I'm sick of them posing as if they're the good guys, saying we are the bad guys.

Knowledge and fight.

Dan and Jordan.

Knowledge fight.

I need, I need money.

Andy and Kansas.

Andy and Tanya.

Stop it.

Andy and Kansas.

Andy in Kansas.

Andy.

It's time to pray.

Andy in Kansas, you're on the air.

Thanks for holding us.

Hello, Alex.

I'm a six-point colour.

We're here to say, I love your room.

Knowledge fight.

Knowledgefight.com.

I love you.

Hey, everybody.

Welcome back Knowledge Fight.

I'm Dan.

I'm Jordan.

We're a couple dudes.

Like to sit around, worship at the altar of Celine, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.

Oh, indeed we are.

Dan.

Jordan.

Dan.

Jordan.

Quick question for you.

What's up?

What's your bright spot today, buddy?

Well, my bright spot today, I'll give this a little bit of a throw.

Thank you for the new pinky ring.

Oh, thank you.

You got me a new pinky ring.

I did.

As a nice birthday present, I'm very thankful.

It's nice.

It's got some runes on it, appears.

So that's cool.

We have two pinky rings.

We have a witch store.

Yeah.

We've been there plenty of times.

True, true.

That's where I've gotten bath salts.

Absolutely.

Bath salts that have brought you wealth,

happiness, they have magical powers.

Absolutely.

100%.

So I figure if I'm going to get you a pinky ring, that's where we go.

Sure.

I mean, the FFA won, The Future Farmers of America, was only a filling.

Right.

Until we could find something that maybe was a little better.

So now I've got an occult pinky ring.

You're a witch.

Hurrah.

Yeah.

So actually, the bright spot, though, is last night I went over to Angela Lampsbury's place.

we watched a little bit of a new movie called The Working Man.

Oh, I watched it too.

I don't know about this movie.

It's the worst movie I've ever seen.

I love The Beekeeper.

I think The Beekeeper is fantastic.

Yeah.

And I will never tire of watching Jason Statham be a real great dude who beats people up.

It's what he does.

Yes.

It is in my wheelhouse in terms of a movie to watch.

But I don't know.

It didn't get me the same way.

Although it was a really interesting experience to watch because

it's opening up and you're like, huh, is that Chicago?

Wait, this takes place in Chicago.

It does.

It's crazy.

Wait, Sylvester Stallone wrote this?

What?

What?

But yeah,

not enough murder in it.

It is a strangely chaste, like, taken plus John Wick kind of thing.

But at the same time, it's like everybody's wasted.

There's so many good people in it, weirdly enough, and they're all just like, oh, this sucks.

And then he punches a guy.

Yeah.

Yeah,

I could have used a little bit more.

Like, the beekeeper is crazy.

Yeah.

And this wasn't crazy enough.

And that to me is unfortunate because if you made a hundred beekeepers, I would watch a hundred of them.

Yes.

And now

this is making me think, like, maybe, maybe not.

Maybe they don't have the formula.

I think, honestly, you need to be more specific with jobs.

That's really what it is.

A working man, not enough.

I'm a working man.

Beekeeper, transporter.

These are the things that you do in order to then murder a bunch of guys.

Yeah, and like we all know what a working man is.

He's in construction.

Yeah, absolutely.

And he used to be in the military.

The British military.

Yeah.

Which fine.

We all know that.

We don't know what the fuck a beekeeper is.

Nope.

You're just making that up.

Completely.

And I think they need to make shit up.

Yeah.

In order for us to, for the buy-in of it, you know?

Yeah, absolutely.

But it was still fun to watch.

I don't know.

Satham kicked a bunch of ass.

Yeah.

You can't not keep watching.

And there was a guy named Dutch in it, which is fun.

That is true.

What's your bright spot?

My bright spot is following up on my previous bright spot.

My wife and I went out, had a date at the Cubs game.

Fantastic night.

Cubs pulled out a win, unexpected.

Couldn't be better.

Could not be better.

To the point where I want it to be enshrined in law that nights cannot be as good as the night that my wife and I had last night.

I don't know how you're going to legislate that.

It's going going to be tough.

Wait, you want to put a ceiling on good times?

Absolutely.

Yep.

It was that.

That's unfair.

Legally, if you try and have a better time than that, you can't.

What if you accidentally do?

Oh, well, then I'm coming.

You're getting arrested.

Oh, I'm coming for you.

Did you get some peanuts?

Yes, of course I did.

No, I didn't.

Which was terrible because she's allergic to peanuts.

Yeah, that is true.

Yeah.

She was just throwing the shells at you.

She was so kind to let me do my baseball rituals.

Give me some peanuts and bee pens.

I don't care.

I wonder if they really don't care about peanut allergies in specific places still.

And a ballpark seems like, listen, if you get hit by a peanut, that's on you.

Well, it's not really on you, but you got to know it's the risk of entry.

It is what it is.

Yeah, it's still on whoever threw it.

So, Jordan, today we have an episode to go over.

And it is finally time.

Oh, no.

We're getting back to Alex.

Ah, I was hoping to see what the third part of Mystery Babylon was going to be.

It's very boring.

I believe that.

We'll get back to Mystery Babylon at some point, but three, no good.

Oh.

So I didn't want to do three in a row.

So

that's a little much.

So we got to get back to Alex.

I mean, we've had a nice little time.

Sure.

But, you know, we know what we have to do.

We have a job.

Yeah.

This is what the show is about.

We got to get back to Alex.

Now, I was like, what are we going to do?

Re-enter a couple months ago?

That doesn't seem that

good.

No.

That doesn't seem like what we should do.

So I decided the Pope just fucking died.

The Pope did just fucking die.

Let's go.

Let's do it.

So we're talking about April 21st,

2025, the day after the Pope died,

and seeing where Alex's head is at.

Finally, the Pope dying has led to something good.

Sure.

And the last time the Pope died, Alex was out of studio.

Yeah.

David Knight was hosting that.

That's true.

And so we did not get Alex's response to it.

So I thought, hey, this is going to be interesting.

He's actually there.

Let's see.

Let's do it.

So we'll get down to business on this.

But first, let's take a little moment to say hello to some new wonks.

Ooh, that's a great idea.

First, in an interstellar burst, Jesse's back to save the universe.

Thank you so much, you're now a policy wonk.

I'm a policy wonk.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

It's 2.15 in the morning.

Do you know where your god is?

Thank you so much.

You're now a policy wonk.

I'm a policy wonk.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

And Luke the Hound Dog, whose secret identity is Inspector Sniffington, and his trusty human Dan.

Thank you so much.

You're now a policy wonk.

I'm a policy wonk.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

And we got a technocrat in the mix, Jordan.

So thank you so much to in memory of Elise, the biggest-hearted, kindest, smartest, funniest, and most empathetic among us.

You're sorely missed.

Rest easy, tiny horse.

Thank you so much.

You are now a technocrat.

I'm a policy wonk.

Four stars.

Go home to your mother and tell her you're brilliant.

Someone, sodomite, sent me a bucket of poop.

Daddy Sharp.

Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb.

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.

Thank you so much.

Yes, thank you.

So, yeah, and I mean, we've spent a little bit of time exploring some other things that, you know, we can incorporate.

We can incorporate some Tucker, go through this mystery Babylon and stuff, but we cannot lose focus of our primary ding-dong.

And that is, of course,

the thick-necked Texan.

Our primary ding-dong.

Yes.

I think that should be his name.

Our primary ding-dong has the floor.

So i uh i you know pope dead pope dead uh

pope dead pope dead and alex starts off uh the show okay obviously needing to cover that yep the sjw

jesuit pope

is dead

at 88

died just hours after meeting with u.s Vice President J.D.

Vance.

Connected?

And

to say that Pope Francis was the ultimate globalist pope so far is putting it lightly, absolutely supporting every major policy of the globalist open borders,

world government,

carbon taxes, all of it.

But that entire plan is falling apart.

Yeah, so the SJW woke Pope is dead

just after meeting with J.D.

Vance.

That is weird.

He stresses that timing

every single time he talks about the Pope dying.

Very strange.

just after he saw JD.

I don't, it feels like he's trying to make you think that Vance killed the Pope.

Okay, yeah, I mean, it makes sense to make me think that.

My next thought, though, was like, oh, man, that guy has done so much.

And then the last thing he sees before he dies is JD fucking Vance.

Brutal.

I was looking at news stories, and it was saying that he was one of the last people that he saw him.

I don't know if he was actually the last person who saw him.

Fantastic.

That's good.

Yeah, that would be a real bummer.

Yeah.

If, yeah, fancy

weird eyes.

Especially since you believe that you, I mean, by necessity, if you're the Pope, you kind of have to believe in an afterlife.

And to have a God that shows you that right before you get to the Pearling Gates, your first response is like, hey, God, what were you doing being a prick about?

Not cool.

I was the Pope, dude.

That guy bummed me out.

That guy.

But also, the premise of him killing the Pope is stupid because the Pope's been sick for a bit.

Right.

And so, like,

I don't know.

I don't know what the importance that Alex is stressing on this is.

Right.

We'll see.

I mean, I think it would be very.

Not, I guess, I mean, yeah, no, I guess in real life, it would be hilarious if the vice president killed the pope.

I think that would be a very funny thing to have happen.

Sure.

In order to try and undo vaticanism.

Yes, exactly.

That would be a funny thing to have happen.

It would be pretty crazy.

So there's a lot of stuff going on in the world, and Alex has something that he seems to be pushing for that I think is

real weird for him.

Multiple states are moving now to let

same-sex couples adopt children

because we know they'll target them on average for transgender mutilation.

There is so much happening today.

And we have something I've said for a long time.

You've got the left pushing reparations for people for slavery 180 years ago.

That's not in the law.

You yourself weren't a victim.

The people that did the victimization aren't alive.

But what about everybody victimized by the Democratic Party letting in the illegal aliens and the unprecedented crime sprees?

Well, that could be reparations of the companies, NGOs, and groups that supported it.

And that has real teeth in it.

See, reparations are supposed to be for people that were actually hurt.

And nobody's been hurt more by the illegal alien surge than black people

and Hispanic, predominant Hispanic neighborhoods that have seen the majority of the suffering from the crime.

Okay, so Alex wants reparation for immigration.

This is a little silly for a number of reasons.

It's silly just on its face, but then it's silly for Alex to endorse this because

shouldn't he be paying reparations to the Sandy Hook families then?

Like,

this is nonsense.

This is so antithetical to his view of the world and like responsibility

and any of these things.

But like Stephen Miller has come out and been advocating this

recently as a way to try and attack

politically opposition kind of organizations and Democrats

and pretend that

it's doing so in service of quote-unquote reparations.

Right, right, right, right.

I, okay.

So, is this a new strategy that we could try?

It's like, oh, man,

we need to give women equal status because of the immigrants.

You know, like, have we considered this?

I think it would ultimately.

I think that using that kind of ploy or

trickery in the way that you're using rhetoric plays into their advantage.

Sure.

It would would never be useful for good.

Sure.

Nah, we'll see.

I think you would end up with women's rights being eroded and immigrant rights being eroded.

Well, I mean, my friend, I don't know if you've looked outside.

No, no.

I understand that that is what is happening.

I just think that your strategy, like what you're saying, wouldn't solve that problem.

Yeah, it works.

Yeah.

So like Jamie Raskin, you know, he threatened a civil war right back with uh i recall yeah uh he's up to his old tricks making threats about uh if they get back in power okay they're gonna fuck shit up oh massive war developments on every front jamie raskin making huge new threats about oh we're gonna get everybody when we get back into power we're not gonna

look kindly on you and we already know about your persecution you're the ones that started it we're not persecuting you.

We're retaliating to your tyranny.

So Jamie Raskin was on Pod Save America and it was being interviewed, and he talked about how

countries that are cooperating with some of these things that Trump's doing, like El Salvador.

Yeah.

Should he not be in power in the future, this is going to reflect very poorly the idea that you're taking money to

house criminals

or non-criminals.

Yeah.

I think they'll get over it.

Probably.

But

it's a normal thing for someone in Jamie Raskin's position to be sensitive.

Sure, sure, sure, sure.

And Alex is trying to say that it's like, once we get back in power, we're going to fuck everybody up.

Nah, it's a nice little bit of diplomatic saber-rattling, like, oh, we're going to get you.

No, we're not.

But we'll burn you.

There will be consequences for

enabling this.

That's what you do.

So, J.D.

Vance didn't kill the Pope,

but.

God, that'd be funny, though.

There's a horrible rumor flying around that he did oh and alex talks about how that's a horrible rumor okay

well we're entering the

91st day into the 92nd day of the new trump administration pope francis died earlier today

just shortly after the easter holiday ended hours after he met with u.s vice president jd vance that's creating its own baseless rumors i don't call it conspiracy theories that's a term the cia on record came out in the Senate Intelligence Committee hearings in the late 70s, the church committee hearings.

They couldn't cover up the fact the government killed Kennedy.

So they said, anytime we're challenged with real knowledge and facts, don't debate the people spewing facts.

Just call it a conspiracy theory.

So the headlines are: conspiracy theorists think J.D.

Vance killed the Pope.

No, that's called a baseless rumor.

Okay, so what is the attack calling that a conspiracy theory about?

What's that to deflect from?

Why, if the if the government weaponizes things that are inconvenient for them by calling them conspiracy theories,

what are they trying to distract from by calling J.D.

Vance killed the Pope a conspiracy theorist?

That he actually killed the Pope, right?

Is it?

Maybe?

That has to be.

That's what he's saying.

Alex is making me think that J.D.

Vance killed the Pope.

Right.

Like, he's coming out to run interference for what is obviously J.D.

Vance killing the Pope.

Before I turned on this episode, I thought there was a 0% chance that J.D.

Vance killed the Pope.

I didn't even know that it was something that people thought.

Agreed.

And now I kind of think he might have killed the Pope.

Okay.

I immediately have an entire heist movie written that relies on J.D.

Vance killing the Pope.

It's going to, I mean, I would have to have begun,

you know, recruiting him back in Harvard.

So it's going to be a long movie.

But yeah, I think this works.

I think this works.

Because how else are you going to get the Vatican jewels, man?

How does Hillbilly Elegy play into this?

Oh, well, because you got to get people to get him into the vice president's chair, right?

And obviously, the only way to do that is with a mediocre book.

So you kind of tried to do that,

like almost sort of Democrat presenting.

Right.

Or at least like kind of moderate.

Sure.

That didn't work, so you flip him over.

Yeah.

Wasn't he in Harvard before Pope Francis was the Pope?

Sure, but you know, I always knew that Francis was going to be there.

Okay.

Or you could conversely say, like, one Pope's as good as any.

I mean,

it's about getting the jewels, right?

Right.

So you got to have a dead pope.

It's not about the pope.

No, not about the jewels.

You got to have a dead pope to get all of the cardinals in there doing their little vocal.

Conclave.

Conclave.

Great movie.

Sure.

I really enjoyed it.

Predictive programming.

Absolutely.

God, Ray Fienn was also Voldemort.

Voldemort killed the Pope.

Right.

Alex can do magic.

Voldemope.

Yep.

Alex is the boy that lived.

Yep.

It all makes sense, man.

The CIA is calling you a conspiracy theorist.

You're so right.

Just because you believe that I don't know enough Harry Potter specifics to make more jokes.

I don't know what I'm talking about.

It's fine.

Owen Troyer, Ron Weasley.

Oh, man.

Owen's kind of red-haired.

If Ron Weasley had a dumbbeard, that would have made that whole movie a lot better.

Right.

What does does that make, Chase?

Who's the nerd?

They're all nerds, they are all nerds, they're magic nerds.

So, I don't know.

JD Vance killed the Pope.

Who gives a shit?

So, there was a judge in New Mexico that recently resigned.

And Alex covers this story as very he's good at this.

Okay, tying together with that New Mexico Democrat judge resigns after ICE arrest, allege

Venezuelan gang member of TDA

in his home, and we've looked into the guy

major,

major

training at gun ranges with other groups, with the judge, making

TDA hand signs.

It's bad.

And of course, what did I tell you years ago?

And what did

the dictator of Venezuela say a few months ago?

He said, listen, we don't want sanctions.

Biden said he took the sanctions off of us three and a half years ago if we would send all of our gang members from TDA to the U.S.

They work for the CIA, not us,

which is part of the strange deal.

That's why Trump's declared them terror groups, because the deep state's running them.

The Democrats are running them.

Man, you're fucking stupid.

So this is about a judge named Joel Kano, who recently resigned from the bench and was subsequently ordered never to be allowed to that type of office again by the New Mexico Supreme Court.

The trouble started when officers showed up to his home looking to round up a guy who was living in a detached studio apartment that he owned.

In April 2024, this guy did some handyman work for the Kanos, and according to Joel, he presented them with documentation that they were seeking legal status and that they were going through that process, so it was okay to hire them.

At some point, this guy got evicted from the apartment that he was living in, and the Kanos decided to let him live in this studio apartment.

Okay.

Now, it appears that this guy is a suspected member of Trende Aragua, the scary name group of 2025, the new MS-13 or ISIS or Al-Qaeda.

Whatever you like.

As far as I can tell, this is just an allegation that hasn't been proven, and there isn't clear evidence that the judge knew of any potential gang affiliation that this guy had.

The guy was found to be in possession of some guns, but it's also unclear if Kano knew about that, though he did apparently go to a gun range with the guy at some point,

which I don't know if that's illegal or not.

I don't know.

I wonder what an interesting life Kano is leading.

Well, but like, I think, I think that from the evidence and from the things that I've been able to tell,

there is a plausible version of this where he's a decent person who had someone he was employing as a handyman who he wanted to give a chance to.

Sure, no,

I'm not saying that.

Well, maybe they became friends.

I don't know.

No, that's what I'm saying.

I'm not making any judgments one way or the other.

I'm just saying as far as judge lives, his is far more colorful and interesting than what you expect from the country club judge.

Sure.

You know?

Yeah,

there's a other plausible version of this that is a little bit more nefarious, but I don't see evidence of that.

I see salacious rumor-mongering by folks like Alex, but

I don't see the evidence of that.

I mean, it tells you where I'm thinking whenever anybody with any amount of power has somebody who just lives in a place, my first thought was like, oh, did he enslave him?

That's fucked up.

You can't.

But then it was like, oh, okay, good.

Judges can enslave people still.

Not quite.

Good news.

So there's clearly something going on with this, and we don't really have a clear picture about what exactly it is, but there's no reason to automatically assume that the judge has some connection with a gang or that he was harboring anyone illegally.

As far as I can tell, the guy who was staying at his guest house had guns that he wasn't legally allowed to have.

That's something we can say.

Yeah.

But that shouldn't be a problem for Alex.

Not for Alex, no.

No.

No one should ever have or not have guns legally.

You should just have guns.

Right.

The right to self-defense and to arm yourself comes from God.

It doesn't come from the government.

It's inalienable.

Yeah.

So if you are someone who's undocumented, you should still be able to have a gun.

The government shouldn't encroach upon that.

Yeah, I guess.

I mean, if you're Alex.

Yeah, if you're Alex.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Oh, well.

So reparations

become become quite a topic

for Alex.

Interesting.

Yeah.

This dude's a fucking straight-up clown.

Okay.

But the idea of reparations is even more cynical than the Democrats pushing the idea of free health care, free education.

Oh, we're going to forgive your student loans.

They just dangle that out there as a lie.

You're never going to actually get it.

But I know the administration's been talking about this behind the scenes.

I told you about it six months ago.

Reparations against the NGOs, against the Democratic Party, against the UN, against companies that have been involved in human trafficking, fentanyl,

and bringing in illegal aliens that have committed rape, murder, crime, arson, you name it.

And I think it is an excellent, excellent idea and needs to be done.

I mean, that's happened a lot in even our current law.

If somebody's got money and they say,

kill your daughter or son,

well, when they're found guilty,

many cases, they get a long prison sentence and a big fine.

And then the money, at least a lot of it, is paid to the victims of their survivors.

That's what we need to see.

And we need to explain this.

to leftist minions that really think that, oh, if we just had a Bernie Sanders, everything would be equal and you'd have all these free goodies.

That's not the way it works because if you take other people's wealth to give it to others, other people stop producing because they're not getting their own wealth.

You can take some of people's wealth and redistribute it, but that always brings in more political control and it's very, very dangerous.

And you see where it gets us today.

Wow, you sound really stupid.

I think listening to him try and tell me about how money should be given to victims made me want to kick a man in the balls.

Yeah.

That was about as close to being like, wow, let's just kick a man to the the balls a bunch.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's the kind of argument that someone makes that you kind of just have to nod and be like, you're getting swung on, or I'm walking away.

And I'm going to choose to walk away because this is incredibly stupid.

It's stupid.

It's disrespectful to his own beliefs and to everybody that he's harmed.

Like, honestly, what we have is

an advocating of a position where, let's say, an immigrant commits a crime against somebody.

Now,

civilly, we can hold responsible, or the government can hold responsible, an advocacy group that protects migrant rights.

If that level of responsibility, that tenuous connection of responsibility is possible, like you open the door to

just any kind of political persecution, like political destruction of anybody who doesn't agree with

your set of beliefs.

It's insane.

No, it would end the legal system.

It wouldn't even be able to be something that's done because everybody would just be trying to handle all of the cases that are happening everywhere all the time.

Yeah,

it makes for a farce of civil responsibilities for

and Alex knows that.

Yeah, which

is the end goal of destroying the judicial system.

Yeah, and he owes people a billion dollars and has yet to reparations any of that shit.

So

fuck off.

And based on his own conception of how he's saying that this should work, he then, I think I would respect it a little more if he took on the responsibility of paying these families.

It would make sense.

Then it would at least not appear that his beliefs are conditional and only work when they're to his advantage.

Yeah.

But as it stands, he just sounds like a fucking idiot.

I want money from everybody.

Yeah, because I've been wronged.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yep.

Cool, man.

Great.

So he mentioned Venezuela,

that deal that Biden made with sanctions earlier.

It was a really strange deal to,

if I understand correctly, import gangs to work for the CIA.

Yeah, and apparently the president of Brazil did it on Venezuela's behalf or something.

That's strange.

You remember the dictator of Venezuela, Lula, a couple months ago.

That's Brazil.

Right when Trump got in, the headline, you want to pull it up with the video is

Venezuela's Lula surrenders to Trump.

It's a a Breitbart headline instead on.

And then there's the three-minute video of him.

We've already played it a bunch here.

Won't play it again.

You can just pull it up.

And he says, listen, your FBI has the documents.

We have the documents.

He says TDA

did not come

from us.

It was set up in the West, and

Biden told us he'll take the sanctions off our oil if we send them here.

Well, I already knew that back at the time.

It was unofficial, but that's what's happening.

Alex is mixing up his characters a little bit here.

So Biden didn't say that he would remove sanctions if Venezuela sent their gang members here.

There was an easing of oil sanctions that happened in 2023 that was contingent upon the government and the opposition party agreeing to hold an election in 2024.

This was important because Nicolas Maduro has been in power since 2013.

But in 2019, Juan Guaido declared himself the real president of Venezuela, having decided that the 2018 election was illegitimate.

At this point, the country had kind of two presidents, which was a mess.

The U.S.

initially recognized Guaido's presidency, mostly because Maduro is an anti-democratic leader and has a lot of connections with Putin and has access to Venezuela's oil, but when the whole Guaido thing fell apart, the U.S.

withdrew its recognition of him as a leader, and it became a priority to negotiate a fair election.

The Biden administration offered to ease oil sanctions as part of Maduro agreeing to a fair election in 2024, which went forward, then Maduro won, and the general consensus was that it was not a fair election after all.

In 2024, in April, Biden reimposed all of the sanctions that were relaxed on Venezuela's gas and oil sector, and this is nonsense, and Alex has written a fun story about it.

But yeah, so yeah.

Yep.

All right.

How about that?

Or conversely, the flip side of it is we ease sanctions in order to convince them to send all the gangs.

Yeah.

Hey, listen, you know what?

I'm starting to think now,

stay with me.

Since I've been alive for a long time, I have yet to see sanctions do anything but hurt poor people.

So

bummer, I guess.

I think that, yeah,

it's an unfortunate reality that it is a tool that should be useful.

But when it's being used against people who rule undemocratically, who rule through oligarch connections and shit like that,

it's fairly easy to find workarounds to keep yourself in power while

sort of

displacing the damage and the pain that those sanctions caused on the people who were lower than you, who are subject to your rule.

And that is unfortunate.

Wow.

I mean, yeah.

I don't.

It kind of makes the sanction part worthless.

It kind of does.

In fact, it almost seems like if you understand how sanctions work and then you impose them, you're just hurting poor people on purpose.

In a perfect world, a sanction and that shit would be exactly the way you would go about trying to,

you know, influence better behavior.

Right.

But functionally, the world doesn't work like a perfect world.

Nah.

And that is unfortunate.

Shit.

So, Alex is...

Probably the most targeted person in the world.

Does it...

Mmm.

If I understand correctly, when somebody fucks up, then civilly they can be held liable for large amounts of money, and then they have to give that money to the victims.

Alex said that earlier.

Alex said that earlier.

But he's also like just the most targeted person.

And he knows that because he talked to Michael Flynn, and Michael Flynn told him.

That makes sense.

You heard General Flynn on a few weeks ago, and I was confirmed this with another high-level source.

He talked to high-level government.

people in the NSA tracker computer systems.

Let's leave it at that.

With multiple high-level pings that the deep state, the globalists, working with Ukrainian-connected groups, that's where they cut the money out and snit over their back, were targeting a large list of key people,

including myself and General Flynn.

He didn't talk about himself in the story, but he's a target as well.

I'll say large number, it was over 30.

But previously, we're only targeted

at a lower level.

This is the highest level below the president.

So we've now been included in a group that was only reserved for the president and his family.

The open bounty on us to the drug cartels.

So, and I explained back then, I said, these Democrat judges, these Democrat lawmakers, these Democrat

mayors,

they are literally running these groups as field commanders on the ground.

And they are preparing, when activated with some social justice excuse, illegal aliens getting killed at a demonstration or something will be the perfect trigger.

They've already hyped up, saying it's imminent with no evidence because they're going to do it.

Then they'll blame a Trump supporter, and then they activate the terror gangs,

the TDA, the MS-13, the rest of them, the Black Lives Matter, the antifungal, and they burn the country now in this summer, which they now admit is their plan.

Summer of rage incoming.

Didn't this man put a $1 million bounty on a judge when he was sitting next to his lawyer?

No, I think it was Chris Matty.

I think he put it on the

lawyer in Connecticut.

My bad.

I always mix up who you put a billion dollar bounty on.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I think Alex,

if he has an open target on him, open bounty on him, I think he'd be a little bit, go on so many vacations, maybe.

Well, maybe his life would be more full of exciting gun battles.

Yeah.

It seems absent from.

Yeah.

Oh, well.

Well, I always thought.

Here's my thoughts on bounties was that the problem with bounties and why you put them out is because it's hard to find a guy.

The resources necessary to find the guy who's trying to hide too much.

So you put a bounty out, somebody else spends their resources finding the guy.

This guy, I know where he is pretty much all the time.

This level of persecution is

extreme.

I thought it was fictional.

It is.

Yeah.

It's fictionally extreme.

It is fictionally extreme.

So I was listening to that clip, and like, you know, the summer of rage, obviously.

Sure.

He's building that up.

Yep.

And, like, we jumped ahead a little bit in time from the last 2025 episode we listened to, but it's all just the same.

He's saying the same shit.

Great.

Trying to crash the market.

They've had some success.

Not as much as they wanted.

They're trying to heat up and authorize and prepare their groups, but they need something much bigger than George Floyd for the corporate media to hype it and then try to get the general public out rioting some.

That's the cover to make it look grassroots for the real professional teams.

that are going to do assassinations of major Trump supporters, major terror attacks, knock out the power.

The globalists can knock out the power in areas, just claim right-wingers did it.

Because remember, you're not just going to have the communist, globalist, Islamic

drug cartel combined

axis of evil strike force.

That's the cover itself for the deep state with its kill switches and power plants,

relay systems, computer systems, communication systems, transportation systems.

to hit those to completely tank the market, plunge a lot of the U.S.

into darkness, and then say it's Trump's fault.

But they got to crash the market first successfully.

I mean, massively.

They won't do this if they're not able to do that.

That's their go point, that they need that first.

Then they'll have right-wingers stage terror attacks, or you say we did,

that is the pretext,

the racial attacks on illegal alien protests and things like that, black churches, colleges, you name it.

to then go to full burn the country down, knock the power out, and blame Trump.

And at that point, if Trump's hanging on, the globalists will

fly a big drone in with a nuke on it.

They could fly one in and have it detonate a few miles from the White House, and that'll knock out most of the communications and defense systems.

And then another one comes, and they'll have 10 of them lined up with nukes.

However many they need,

they plan to get.

Sounds easy.

It could be it in Mar-Lago, you name it.

And I'm just laying out probable approximation scenarios for my battle wargame system that is my mind that is constantly updating with all the latest information, historical context, sources, analysis, methods.

Oh, you mean your imagination?

His battle computer mind.

Imagination.

Well, you could say that.

I mean, like, when Trump won in 2016, Alex said they were going to fly a fucking helicopter into the inauguration.

They did.

Like, come on.

They're going to fucking 10 nukes.

10 nukes.

I feel like

I feel like I would see so many more assassinations if any part of what Alex says was true on a regular basis.

Like, if you stop and think about how many people there are at any given

moment that are worthy of assassination in Alex's world, right?

Lots.

The number of people who are out there assassinating is huge.

Like,

on an almost weekly basis, somewhere you should have a headline of like, fresh assassination, you know?

If Alex's

view of the world was even close to accurate, there would be so many bodies in the street.

There's a lot of countries.

There's a lot of stuff.

There's a lot of ambassadors.

There's a lot of heads of state.

There's a lot of congresses.

There's a lot of people

out there with bounties on their head in Alex's world.

And I feel like we rarely, like, Trump didn't even get his head blown off.

He just got shot a little bit, you know?

Uh-huh.

Crazy.

Yeah.

Well, they could have nuked him.

They could have nuked him.

I'll tell you what, Wouldn't have missed.

Would have been hard to miss.

There's just this part of me that is like,

okay,

if it's an option, they're going to drop 10 nukes.

10.

That seems like so many.

Why?

It doesn't.

Like, why are they waiting?

Like, I'm not saying get on with it.

No, no, no, no.

But I'm saying that, like, if the end goal of that is stop Trump, then they could have done that at any point

and avoided all of this intervening time where Trump's done a bunch of really

like a bunch of shit they don't like.

You know what?

I think I'll go a step further.

I'll say that if the end goal is just nuke and shit, well then get on with it.

I feel like what are we doing with the next couple of weeks?

I don't want to pay taxes and shit if I know that in a couple of weeks everybody's going to explode.

I would say that

I'm not going to say, hey, let's get to nuke them.

Hey,

that's not my.

Let's go.

We may have slight differences of opinions there.

Fair enough.

But I feel like they're wasting time.

I agree.

I think the view view of the globalists that Alex has,

they're deeply wasting time.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

They're just fucking around.

I mean, honestly, this is my tax payer money going to the wrong things.

So

Trump and his White House have

signaled that they are more into the lab leak idea for the origins of.

Still going, huh?

Right.

And Alex apparently went on a little bit of a break.

He took a little bit of time.

he wasn't working so hard.

And this news broke that the White House was advancing this position.

And people on Twitter accused Alex of not covering it.

They accused him of being part of a cover-up of this lab leak truth.

Sounds real to me.

And so Alex spends quite a bit of time being really defensive about this and yelling about how he's not

Twitter saying that I cover this up.

I started it.

Yeah.

So yes, the listeners on X.

X, you bet I'll stop covering up the lab leak theory.

It's not a lab leak.

It was done on purpose.

Under the Obama administration, they had it ready to go, and they had the UN saying soon disease X will come and we'll use it to take over the world and it'll prepare you for climate lockdowns and train you to stay locked in your house and you'll have six feet distance and you'll have to wear a mask and that'll be used to create fear in the public.

And I told you all of that and said you won't be able to go to the ball games six feet apart and you'll wear a mask.

And And then people said, how the hell did he know that?

Because under Operation BioShield 2004, multi-billion dollar funding by Congress, the Bush administration, they put up a public battle plan and sent out millions of packages to churches and other groups preparing to do it in 2006, but they didn't sing six feet apart.

Wear your mask, can't go to the ball game, got to stay in your house.

So people get the clips of me talking about that, but like 20 seconds, and they get hundreds of millions of views, and they go, how the hell did he know it?

Well, in the full clip, I tell you.

Alex can only look like a prophet in tiny clips that he cuts together.

Because if his audience actually did go seek out the context of these things that he said, they'll find he's full of shit.

We've talked about this specific a while ago, but in case people didn't hear that episode, when Alex said that bit about how you won't be able to go to ball games anymore, he wasn't talking about a virus being released and how the government won't allow you to go to the ball game, which you did last night.

I did.

Yeah, that's the image that he tries to create with his tiny edited clip that he predicted that and it came true.

In the full original context, Alex is saying that once you accept the truth about his globalist conspiracies, you won't be able to go to the ball game anymore because you'll be too busy fighting the devil.

Going to the ball games will become a trivial thing, and the fear of losing your ability to enjoy anything in the world is part of what subconsciously stops you from acknowledging acknowledging that Alex is right about everything.

You'd rather be asleep and able to go to the ball game than wake up.

Alex knows that he didn't predict any of this shit, and all of his public image is based on this very strategic distortion of old clips of his show.

He's a

wizard of Oz ass fraud.

Yep.

Like this is such bullshit.

Yeah.

It's tiring.

It feels like

whenever we'd been doing the internet early on, you know, and people just started getting hearing about deep fakes and all that stuff.

And they were like, ah, but people are going to have so much to be afraid of because these deep fakes and all this stuff.

And it's like,

people are still fucked up by editing.

You don't need a deep fake for this shit.

You can just have a lot of clips of something and then cut it down, and a lot of people will be convinced, anyways.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And even if they're not, Tucker will pretend or act like he is and then try and help persuade people of this bullshit.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's crazy.

So they're winning.

Well, Alex and his folks, they're winning.

I wouldn't say they're not.

And so he rants about that a little bit, and it leads to exactly where you would expect.

It's a UN global corporate dictatorship plan, and it failed, and it caused the Great Awakening, and we're winning, and that's why you see all this happening.

But it's important to understand they're going to try it again.

And they're going to try to cause a race war as the cover for their martial law.

And they're trying to crash the market right now.

So the fight ain't over.

The fight just begun.

And because we're halfway awake, we're beating the living shit out of the new world order.

But if people take stuff for granted and they don't realize how intense this is, we are going to get our asses still handed to us.

You heard Raskin.

Oh, we're coming after everybody that facilitates what's happening.

Oh, we're coming back to power.

We'll be back in Hunch.

You hurry.

All right, we're gonna go to break.

I'll hit the poet.

Sounded like a demon ground.

WF, all of it.

That I'm telling the listeners right now.

I need you to realize how important you are in the InfoWars.

To take the live feed of real alex shows, to take the clips, to cut them out yourself, put them up, whatever.

Share on your email list, your text message list, your friends, your family.

Tell them to share it.

And support the broadcast because I'm not even spending time on what's going on in InfoWars and what's happening.

Bizarreness, all sorts of stuff, trying to shut us down again, but nobody wants to put their name on it.

Nobody wants to ⁇ it's a whole bunch of stuff.

You'll see big news and lawsuits and everything this week.

It's all going down.

We were going to file them a week and a half ago, but more stuff came out, even worse stuff.

It's just wait.

You think the corruption you've seen in the inside jobs and them trying to shut us down and the Justice Department corruption and all the crap was bad, you ain't seen nothing yet.

We have to keep amending these lawsuits and amending these criminal referrals because more, more, more, more.

So

now we're in the main part of the battle right now.

And we need your financial support and we need your word of mouth.

We need your prayer.

We're in this together.

This is a marathon, not a sprint.

And we're in the lead, but they're right behind us.

And so please go to the alexieldstore.com right now.

With all the stuff going on in the environment and all the toxins and all the crap, you're insane if you're not taking Ultimate IRC MOS and and our Ultimate Turmeric formula.

Yeah, you're nuts.

So, yeah, obviously, you know,

this is the direction things go.

Sure.

You know, we're winning, but, you know, if we think we're winning and we take that for granted, then you're not going to buy my CMOS.

So buy my CMOS.

Yeah.

Yeah, I want him to sue everybody, I guess.

Just go ahead and do it.

Stop amending these lawsuits.

Yeah.

Fucking sue everybody.

Do it.

You know, I was thinking, you know, a lot lot of what's going on, a lot of how these things work really is like the settlement comes down to a place where everybody just kind of wants to move on with their lives, you know,

put a button on it, next chapter of my life, kind of thing.

Yeah, but this is Alex's life.

Yep.

This is Alex's life.

He will never go, oh, I want to move on with my life.

I am, this is it.

I'm in.

I'm in it.

Yeah,

I think it's the, you know, Lenny Bruce,

a lot of his performance became wrapped up in his,

you know, free speech stuff to the detriment of his ability to move on and

create as an artist.

And I think that Alex

probably has some of that same dynamic.

Like,

this is never, he's never going to, he's lost.

Yeah.

And he's never going to take the L and just move on into the next phase or whatever.

There isn't another phase.

Nope.

So he'll pretend that he's going to have these righteous lawsuits that are coming out anytime now.

He's going to be vindicated, and you just need to give him more money, and then they'll cross out one person's name and write the other person's name.

That's why it hasn't happened yet.

These lawsuits are coming.

We have to change some names and stuff.

Yep.

It's all a load of bullshit.

And I think it's weak.

Yeah, I mean,

it's hard not to think like there's only one way to really not lose, and that is to die first, you know, before the

consequences come calling.

As Alex loves to reference, war games don't play the game.

Or don't play the game.

Yeah.

that's the other way not to lose.

Yep.

Crazy.

So there's a lot of people, like Alex is winning.

They're all winning.

Sure.

And so one of the signs of that that you'll see is that a bunch of these folks are coming over to his side.

Sure.

Folks like Bill Gates' ex-wife talking shit about him.

That's a big win.

There you go.

An ex-wife not happy with her husband.

But we can't trust these people.

Celebrate that they're kowtowing.

What?

Yeah, we can't trust them.

All right.

Well, we don't trust Melinda French.

Well, of course we don't.

But the fact that Fredo, Cuomo's running from them, and Bill Maher's running from them, and Jeff Bezos is running from them, and Mark Zuckerberg's running from them.

They're running from them.

They're running from the Globals.

They're running.

They're running.

They're running because we're routing them.

But their minions and the Soros groups just still, and the Jamie Raskins, they're not giving up.

There's the Soros-Raskin

axis.

And I'm not saying they're the actual kingpins, but they're the guys you know about.

But if the globalists keep being identified, the Larry Finks and their owners,

the quicker we expose them now, the more

so many of their minions will give up, they won't even have their counter-response.

But now we're into their counter-response.

So this is a race, a race to finish them off politically, to destroy them in the public eye.

Don't just destroy Bill Gates.

Don't just destroy Klaus Schwab.

Go after all of their kingpins, all of their mouthpieces, politically expose them

because their plans are set.

And,

oh, they're really dumb they release another virus.

They're really dumb they killed Trump.

It'll make it that much worse for them, but it'll make things destabilize and be horrible for us as well.

So we want them to be smart.

Discretion is a greater part of valor and to surrender now.

Publicly come out and endorse the golden age.

Come out and endorse the new Renaissance.

Come out and endorse the Great Awakening.

And then show us as a high-level globalist, mid-level, low-level, buy good work.

And then you save yourself from your boss's own project.

And then I can tell you,

we're smart.

We'll leave you alone.

Unless you've committed crimes against kids, you're going to have to fall down some stairs.

It'll be an accident, no big deal.

It's already happening.

And that's the thing of why they're losing so quickly is I just imagine

that gloves have been taken off here and there.

And I see evidence of that.

And that's just a little message.

So, all these people that Alex is listing is turning on the globalists and going with Trump are wildly opportunistic people whose allegiances aren't meaningful.

I don't care what Chris Cuomo, Bill Maher, or Mark Zuckerberg think.

They're likely going to go wherever the wind blows and take up whatever positions benefit them the most.

Who gives a shit?

I didn't care about Bill Maher when he was saying things that I liked.

Who cares?

Who cares?

I abhor people who commit crimes against children, but what Alex is saying

in that clip,

it should be completely antithetical to his idea of a functioning government.

Alex is saying and celebrating that people who are suspected of committing crimes against children are being killed and that it's being covered up as them falling down some stairs.

It really feels like he should recognize how much power he's bequeathing to the state here.

Not only is he condoning summary executions by law enforcement agents, he's endorsing the practice of covering up those executions because it would be very illegal for law enforcement to operate this way.

I understand that it feels like people who commit crimes against children don't deserve due process, but to advocate for a state that operates that way is very dangerous.

Alex has pretended to be a liberty guy for like the last 30 years, where the defense of the Constitution is the most sacred duty, but you can see in the way that he acts that that was all a facade.

He doesn't care about any of that shit.

His side just knew knew that their only shot at ever seizing power was rooted in insisting that the other side was always breaking the rules and that the rules were very important.

The Constitution is essentially a joke to him and we're the butt of it.

If you think that it's okay for people to be committing, like doing summary executions, I like I think that one of the worst

not one of the worst things, but something that I'm opposed to is people who are part of like white separatist, white supremacist groups.

Sure.

That plan, you know, I don't know, racist outbursts.

Yeah.

Let's say.

That's really bad.

Problems.

I do not think that if law enforcement

I don't think they should be able to kill the people who organize those groups.

I think that the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers plotted to overthrow the election.

Yeah.

I don't think that law enforcement should have been able to go to like Enrique Tario's house and kill him.

I don't think that they should have the ability to do that.

They deserve to have trials.

And Alex is supposed to believe that, too.

And he doesn't.

Yeah.

I mean,

you know, I feel like there's been a lot of

political workings around anytime there's something that shakes the whole core of everybody.

I just feel like people are not really

where they were before.

Like, for some reason, Alex and his folk are now on the, like, my rich people should win over your rich people tip, which is crazy.

Yeah.

That's not, they're monarchists, you know?

They're like, oh, the king, my king is better than your king.

Yeah.

Whereas with a veneer of populism, like pretend populism thrown on top.

Right.

The answer is no kings.

No kings.

Right.

None.

Right.

Here we are.

Yeah, and I think that one of the things that it just becomes really clear to me in the present

is how much like

it hasn't changed that much like you you're saying these people aren't where they were

they are it's just that where they were before was pretend sure

this is not really all that different than how alex was

sure

i mean it's just that the the the need to pretend that like some rule-based uh society uh is important the need to pretend that is gone.

Sure.

Well, I mean, you know, until it's back, and then he'll pretend otherwise.

Right.

Yeah.

What is pretend?

Should Trump ever not be in power, then the Constitution's going to be very, very important to me.

Super important.

So important.

It's opportunistic and he's full of shit.

Yep.

So the Pope, dead.

Finally.

Yeah.

I mean, not finally dead, but you know what I'm saying.

He gets to it talking about it.

Exactly.

He rants a bit about it.

The Jesuits aren't supposed to be in charge and all this stuff.

He literally helped lead the assault and the Islamic invasion against Europe.

You got the king of England on Easter saying, Easter is about Islam and its values.

I'm not kidding.

Pull up.

Just type in King Charles's Easter statement sparks outrage.

I meant to cover that Friday and get to it.

It's like, the greatest thing for Easter is the values of Islam.

Nothing about Christ, nothing about God,

nothing about Christianity, nothing, nothing, nothing.

None of the icons, none of it, none of it.

Because the globalist system is against Christianity.

Because whether you believe in God or not, the globalist system is at loggerheads against Christian doctrine and ideas and against the West itself.

That is the blessing of Christianity.

Alex is just straight up lying about King Charles' Easter message.

Just flat out lying.

It works for me.

He talks a ton about Christianity and Jesus.

People like Alex just got mad about this part of his comments, that it included this.

Quote, the love Jesus showed when he walked the earth reflected the Jewish ethic of caring for the stranger and those in need, a deep human instinct echoed in Islam and other religious traditions, and in the heart of all who seek the good in others.

He included that.

Sure.

And that's the basis for this bullshit that Alex is spouting.

Because he said this, Alex is pretending that he didn't even mention Jesus, didn't even mention Christianity.

Yeah.

I mean, I think the irony is.

That's a sin.

The irony is

still go fuck yourself, King Charles, or whatever it is, because you're only adding that bullshit to make it sound like you're.

Nobody asked you for that shit.

Nobody's like, oh, we need to get a mention of Islam in for that.

Fuck off, you piece of shit.

Fuck the king.

What are we doing here?

I'm never going to.

Even in the best circumstances, I'm never really going to go to bed for the king.

King Charles is not a great king.

Nope.

He seems like a real dick.

Fuck that guy.

Real dick.

But

yeah, I think that it's a sort of standard, magnanimous type Easter message.

And if you're a royal in the present day, I feel like there's probably an obligation that you say something.

So

he said something, and because it wasn't Christian extremist enough for Alex,

it's become

fodder.

I'm of the opinion that the only thing a royal should say is, I'm sorry, and here's all my money.

I'm going to go away now.

So what about the guy who's on the Traders?

Hmm.

Got to go.

Get out of here.

You don't like Ivar?

Ivar is fine.

Just give all of your money and then go away.

It's very simple.

You know who said something like that?

That old fella, Jesus.

Right.

But also,

the Pope is being...

Alex is screaming about the Pope, and then he brings up what King Charles said.

Yeah.

It's very much, my sense of his take on the Pope's death is very much like:

I have some complaints about this fucking guy.

I remember that John Paul II was pretty anti-communist.

Yeah.

I don't like this guy.

Preferred Nazi Pope, for sure.

I have a lot of friends who are Catholics.

Sure.

They're mad about Vatican II.

For some reason.

But I don't really want to fully commit to that.

Why do I hope that there's a real conservative pope next?

So that's kind of where he's at.

His take on it is very uninteresting.

Crazy.

But

the Pope cursed Europe.

Now I'm listening.

Now I've got some interesting stuff to say.

Yeah.

And Catholics.

Okay.

He has brought a curse upon them.

All right.

And then Alex leaves.

Oh, fuck.

And Europe has been cursed under this Pope.

Catholics have been persecuted and cursed.

You know, the Pope said that Biden don't persecute conservative Catholics, don't call them the most dangerous terrorists for no reason, with no evidence.

Preposterous.

He would have stopped, but they didn't.

And he let Biden and others continue to get communion

with the rest of it.

That's a blasphemy.

That's a satanic ritual.

Openly supporting partial birth abortion and then still getting

communion.

That's what the Satanists do when they rent these Catholic churches and others and go do satanic masses there publicly now.

That's blasphemy.

That's what the devil wants.

That's what Satanists love.

They love to get our children, God's creation.

They want to hurt God.

They want to hurt children because it hurts Christ.

Now, I want to get into the Oklahoma City bombing, total inside job anniversary and recap that.

I have a special guest on coming up, and Owen's going to be here as well.

I've got legal stuff I got to deal with because I got to certify and sign off on these final lawsuits.

They're going to be huge news against the bad guys.

We'll be back with sports.

But Owen and and the editor of the New American magazine, so smart, top globalist expert,

is coming up.

You don't want to miss that information.

But I'm going to say this again.

I don't tell you stuff

that isn't true when I can certify it and verify it.

I'll speculate sometimes and I'm almost always right.

Sometimes I'm wrong.

I'll tell you when I am.

But when I tell you that I'm certain about something, I've never been wrong.

And I'm telling you right now,

been three days since I took it.

If you go to the Alex Shonstore.com and you get our USP pharmaceutical grade methylene blue,

it is on record.

So good for your mitochondria, so good for cleaning out your cells.

Yeah, so the Pope has cursed Europe.

Yep.

By my shit, I got to go.

I got to go.

Owen's going to take over this Ron Weasley ass.

I'm going to go and sign some legal documents that apparently I couldn't sign when the show was over or whatever the fuck.

Cool, man.

I think you should have to, if you're going to curse, you should have to tell me what the curse is, right?

Like, I mean, if he's just saying that the Pope has cursed Europe with a general, like, less than positive vibe, that's not really a curse.

If you're the Pope, you've got real curse powers, right?

You have to believe you've got real curse.

Like, you can call down some heavenly curse shit, right?

Yeah, well, I mean, look, if I had to guess what Alex is referring to,

it would be that there are a lot of non-white people in countries that Alex thinks are white.

Right.

And there's a lot of immigration.

Right.

And that's the curse.

Right.

And the source of his curse is the Pope giving Biden communion when he supports abortion.

This is another interesting thing that he is glossing over there.

Do you want the Pope to be able to influence the president's choices via communion relations?

I think

when it works to his advantage, yes.

Right, but you don't want that.

Like, you really don't want that.

Well, you're a dirty papist.

Like, if you if you believe with the pope in ways that Alex doesn't like, right, but like, you remember when they elected Kennedy, there was a lot of talk about we can't elect anybody who's Catholic because the Pope will run the country.

Right, right.

There was a lot of talk of that.

And that will be important if there's a Catholic that Alex doesn't like

around.

That makes sense.

But yeah,

when he can use Catholicism to his advantage, he will.

That's what you got to do.

Then the Pope should be influencing the president.

Yeah,

it is so fun.

Like the undercurrent to all of his religious talk, ultimately, with other sects of Christianity is...

I want you to be more like me now because we've got bigger fish to fry.

But then later, you're going to be very much not like me, no matter what you do.

You're going to be a fish I'm frying.

You are fried, my friend.

So, well, yeah, it's it's his relationship with a lot of religious stuff is the same thing that it is with the Constitution.

Like, it would be silly to think otherwise.

It's a

conduit through which he wants to exert power.

Yep.

That's really

what's at the bottom of it.

Yeah.

And when he can, or feels like he can,

use the Pope or the Vatican or Catholicism in a way that boosts his power, then he's totally comfortable with it.

But when there's a Pope who's, quote, SJW and woke and all this stuff, then that is, again, counter to his ability to use it to exert his own power.

And that's, at the end of the day, all that really matters.

Yeah.

Because he's dumb and he's desperate for power.

I mean, it's a smart thing to do, you know, in its own way.

Like, the Constitution is very important, yada, yada, yada.

But, you know, then you lose a Supreme Court justice because a guy bluffs, and then it's got to be very important, blah, blah, blah.

And then whenever they get to, they use it for power.

And then

it's fun to watch this happen in both directions, you know?

Like,

I've just been listening to Democrats be like, why don't they care about the Constitution my whole life?

Sure.

And it doesn't work the other direction because

Alex's side doesn't care.

Nope.

They don't care about the rules.

They want to force the rules on you.

And that doesn't mean that you should break the rules.

It just means insisting that they follow the rules is never going to work.

It means that there's a different set of rules that everybody's playing by, but you're not.

It should cause some examination of that, at very least.

Yep.

So this episode's a little bit short because Alex, as Owen takes over.

He's just got to go.

Yeah, he's got to go do some legal stuff.

He's got to go do some legal stuff.

But we're back to Alex.

Hooray.

Indeed.

Pope's dead.

Pope's dead.

Sad Pope.

I'm excited to see Alex's in-depth coverage of the

selection process of a new Pope and whatever these lawsuits are that he's going to file on everybody.

So we'll check in on that in the future.

But until then, we have a website.

Indeed, we do.

It's KnowledgeFight.com.

Yep.

We'll be back.

But until then, I'm Neo.

I'm Leo.

I'm DZX Clark.

I am the Mysterious Professor.

Woo, yeah, woo, yeah, woo.

And now here comes the sex robots.

Andy in Kansas, you're on the air.

Thanks for holding.

Hello, Alex.

I'm a first-time caller.

I'm a huge fan.

I love your work.

I love you.
