When Giants Clash: Understanding the Trump-Elon Drama and Its Implications
Welcome to the revolution—albeit one fought through podcasting, not pitchforks. In this explosive episode of The Peasants Perspective, we dive headfirst into the unexpected public feud between Donald Trump and Elon Musk that has the political world buzzing. What started as a seemingly productive alliance has morphed into a high-stakes war of words, complete with accusations about Epstein connections and threats to cancel government contracts.
Beyond the headline-grabbing drama, we explore the fascinating historical parallel between this modern conflict and the infamous rivalry between founding fathers Thomas Jefferson and John Adams. Just as those revolutionary titans found their way back to friendship after bitter disagreement, could Trump and Musk's relationship follow a similar arc? Or is something more calculated happening behind the scenes? We break down the timeline, examine the possible strategic motivations, and consider whether this might all be an elaborate "pincer move" designed to achieve specific political outcomes.
The conversation takes a powerful turn when we celebrate Christie Noem's decision to eliminate the controversial "Quiet Skies" program—a surveillance initiative that cost taxpayers millions while targeting political opponents under the guise of national security. This victory for civil liberties hits close to home, as we share personal experiences with this invasive program and what its elimination means for everyday Americans who've been caught in its web. We also share some surprising good news about a friend who's finally found justice after years of wrongful imprisonment.
The elite may squabble over billions while we worry about bread, but understanding the game is the first step toward changing it. Join us for this enlightening conversation that proves, as always, that the revolution begins with awareness.

And when they went to the queen to tell her Ruth Bunchik had no bread, do you know what she said? Let them eat cake.
Speaker 3:We're getting screwed, man. Every time we turn around, we're getting screwed. Oh, the revolution's gonna be through podcasting for sure. That's the only way we talk. It's the little guys. The little guys that take the brunt of everything. It's gotta stop. Peasants, man, we're just peasants, Every one of us. You watch those old movies. You see the peasants in the background With the kings and queens walking around. We're those people around. We're those people. We're those people. Good morning peasants. Welcome to another episode of the peasants perspective. We're so glad to be with you guys today. We are tinkering around. We launched earlier and we are streaming onto a small rumble channel which is part of our channels, but uh, not where we intended.
Speaker 3:Yes, we're not a hundred percent sure exactly how we're doing all this, but restart again.
Speaker 4:These are different.
Speaker 3:No, I don't think we should at this point. Okay. But cause I know I can move it, it's just one of those weird deals.
Speaker 4:I had to turn my rumble off so we wouldn't have the doubling yeah, so I can't.
Speaker 3:I'm not sure exactly how to deal with this.
Speaker 4:Just like government the better you try to make it, the worse it gets.
Speaker 6:Exactly just like government, the better you try to make it the worse it gets exactly, I'm trying to push it out to that channel.
Speaker 3:Oh no, pain in the butt. Yeah, I have to just like delete these channels, so they're not even available to stream okay.
Speaker 3:Well, anyways, we're here, we're streaming. Hopefully people find us, are we? Are we on, uh, the book of faces? Yes, we are. Years and years ago, uh, I was working with a company and facebook was like brand new and we had this old guy I can't remember his name, anyways. He he's from like eastern idaho, montana area, and one day we were on this conference call and we're doing some training and everybody's talking about setting up their facebook page and how to kind of use it to connect with people and stuff like that. I mean, because facebook was like this is like the first year or two that it's infancy, infancy, yeah, and so people, anyways, this guy's like a rock star, but he's an old school cowboy, does his sales you know out of on note cards and stuff like that, and, uh, we're talking about facebook and he gets what, what are you guys talking about here? This book of faces? We're like, oh, geez, man, book of faces. So I always look at, at, uh, at, I look at facebook and I always think of that book of faces.
Speaker 3:All right, well, very fun okay we are going to be talking about a whole bunch of stuff today and some kind of wild stuff, so I assumed, yeah, I want to start out with this robbie starbuck post uh, which is which is pretty, pretty good as far as explaining kind of what's been going on here. So, obviously, if if you are awake at all, yesterday you probably heard about this little spat between donald trump and elon musk.
Speaker 4:Got a little got a little weird. It sounded like they had a little uh on the playground kerfuffle, good gravy it got dirty too.
Speaker 3:So robbie starbucks said this it doesn't need to be over for trump and elon. Dominant men often develop deep friction when they disagree. Let me give you a powerful historical example of a similar situation, and I think it's good to keep some of this stuff in context because you know there's there's nothing new under the sun. This stuff just repeats itself over and over.
Speaker 3:Thomas Jefferson and John Adams were close friends during the American Revolution. They worked on the Declaration of Independence together. They later became bitter rivals over disagreements surrounding the size and scope of government. Is this sounding familiar? Yet the relationship broke down over hurtful things. They both said Again, sound familiar? This went on until mutual friends got them to talk. After talking to one another, they reconciled. From that point on, they stayed in communication until they died. In some bizarre poetic stroke of god's genius, they both died on the same day, july 4th 1826, on the 50th anniversary of the declaration of independence. Not promising they will reconcile, but for some eerie precedent, precedent for reconciliation like this. Both are world changers. For the sake of the world, I hope they reconcile for a betterment of humanity.
Speaker 4:Died on the same day. Wow, you didn't know that Conspiracy much. I'm just joking.
Speaker 3:So in the HBO documentary John Adams, which I think does the best job of portraying John Adams of anything I've ever seen, because he's kind of a, he's a forgotten founding father, Was that?
Speaker 4:the one with Paul Giamatti. Yes, that was excellent.
Speaker 3:Yes, and in that one at the end, right, jefferson and Adams are writing each other when they're both very sickly, yeah, and you know, I think they received their letters like their last letters to each other, the day of, or something like that. It's pretty fascinating little story. But, yeah, bitter rivals. And john adams wanted a, you know, very federalist system, but he was kind of, uh, dictatorial. I mean, he's the one who did like the censorship act and stuff like that.
Speaker 3:Jefferson was a little bit more libertine, freedom of religion, that kind of stuff, uh, but both of them were very unique men. I mean, these guys found it like what you got your second and third presidents here. You know, these guys had to live in the shadow of George Washington. Pretty incredible, incredible deal there. So, yeah, there's definitely. And in their campaigns against each other they'd say things like if he's elected, the hermaphrodites will run in the street. These guys were pretty out there with their rhetoric. These guys were pretty out there with their rhetoric. So this is newt gingrich's take on the feud, which we're going to get into the feud here, but just so you can kind of get a wrap up here on, uh, what's going on. So this is newt gingrich. Did you know?
Speaker 4:I met newt gingrich uh, yeah, I guess I have heard that back in 1996 at the republican national convention in san diego.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I had a newt gingrich sign. You know they wave when he's speaking. I got one from the from the uh convention and I was down on the convention floor. I was babysitting for my uncle.
Speaker 3:He was a delegate so one night like a political nerd now yeah, one night he took me to the convention and uh, I got down there and I shook bob dole's hand and I shook Newt Gingrich's hand. So they shake like a little, which hand? Well, bob Dole was the other, it was the left hand. I know I'm just messing, but the funny thing was it was the first time ever in my life I've gotten the politician handshake this.
Speaker 4:Oh the limp, yes, the little French like french, like here, just touch my fingers. It was no, I got it from both of them. I got a theory about that. Yeah, what is the theory? They take so many damn hands, they get just so tired, they're just like oh I think there could be something to that, a non-committal just yeah, touch the ring well, I mean, if you're like going through the crowd, you're like shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake.
Speaker 3:Oh, yeah, no, it's pretty weird, but it was like you know. I mean he extends the hand for a handshake and you just get this. Yeah, Anyways, both New Gingrich and Bob Dole, Bob Dole, I kind of you know old man, left hand just extending it across his body. Yeah, Okay, I get that. You know it felt a little, you know weekly, but then again I'm not good at shaking hands with my left hand. Anyways, secret societies or anything. I gave that up at my last order of the arrow scout.
Speaker 4:You didn't complete your order of the air challenge or whatever.
Speaker 3:No, I became brotherhood but I kind of backdoored it because I worked on a scout camp staff and I used to actually oversee the silent day of initiation and then I would do the ceremonies, but I wasn't officially a member. So I kind of became a member by backdooring in. So I never did the silent Because I would be staff and they're like, oh well, we're good. Then I went and subbed at another scout camp as a staff member and I participated in the brotherhood ordeal and they were like well, I mean, if you're memorizing lines, you should probably be in the brotherhood. So I'm not totally backdoored into it. I'm not really a member of the secret society. I learned all the secret society boy scout stuff. So, yeah, no, I left that behind a long time ago anyway. So this is newt gingrich just talking about the politics of this and you know what's going on here. Oh, let me change the sound on my computador all right blow up the big beautiful bill.
Speaker 17:Buffering he. I think he's a brilliant guy. He said now single handedly has put Americans back into space in a big way, but he doesn't understand politics. He proved over the last four months that it was an interesting experiment and it didn't work, and I think very few House or Senate members are going to take him seriously Really. Yeah, they're just going to.
Speaker 6:I mean look, oh, dismiss his comment.
Speaker 17:They're just going to say this is not. You know, he doesn't know what he's talking about. I do think there are senators who have very real concerns on the spending side and Trump's going to have to work with them to find a way to make them more comfortable, because it's not an automatic yes, and some are very serious guys who've been around a long time.
Speaker 6:I can't imagine it not passing. I mean, what would happen if it didn't pass?
Speaker 17:I have a big imagination. I can imagine it not passing, but I would bet that it will pass. But it will take trump personally meeting with individual senators, listening to their concerns and, in some cases, finding creative solutions outside the bill. I mean, if somebody comes in and says I really wanted to help cut spending, they have a rescission bill as a start. They'll have some more rescission bills uh, there'll be other things they can do. And look this, this is what the founding fathers wanted. It's a legislative process. The House has to say something, the Senate has to say something, the president has to get involved.
Speaker 3:It's exactly the system the founding fathers wanted and remember when you've got the majority party in power, they're going to get their vote. So what does the minority party do? They've got ways that they can block bills and things like that. So what a lot of people don't understand is our politicians are very calculated. I mean, duh right, we would love for them to be really principally based and we would love for them to represent, you know, the principles of their constituency, but the reality is they usually meet with the needs of the constituency and you know they get rewarded for bringing home economics and stuff like that. So when they pass the Inflation Reduction Act, aka the Green New Deal, all the Republicans opposed it. This is crap, blah, blah, blah.
Speaker 3:But when I was in prison, one of my, one of my friends in there his family is very political, Right, they're in, they're in Mississippi politics and anyways, he was like don't, don't, second guess these guys. He's like when the Democrats are in power, the Republicans get the pork. When the Republicans are in power, the Democrats get the pork. And he's like so that cares, act. He's like oh, you know Mississippi opposes it. Not one single person in Mississippi thought that bill was a good idea. But gosh, you know, we got a couple of wind farms out of it and a couple of solar farms, and we got a bunch of you know this, that or the other like built into it. Now that those things are under construction, oh, we can't repeal that, we can't get rid of the funding for that. You see what I'm saying? Because otherwise we'd lose construction jobs and we would lose this, this funding for this thing that we didn't support in the first place, but now it's a part of the economy and he's like that's the problem is, you know they, why won't they do cuts? Well, because they'd be cutting projects in their own states and they don't want to tell you that. They don't want to say it like that, you know.
Speaker 3:And then when the when the Republicans are in power, who gets the pork? The Democrats. And then when the Democrats are in power, you know they, oh, if they make any cuts, they make it to their own pork. You know what I mean. Like they play this little game to to satiate and pacify the public. But you know, some of us see through it most of us don't, because it's all wwe, but just like policy as people, uh, politics as people too. So where did everything kind of start to go off the rails with elon. Okay, so you've got donald trump uh, I don't know.
Speaker 4:I don't know if they are off the rails or if we're way out in space so this is where I think it mainly started.
Speaker 3:First of all, let's just acknowledge that elon musk is a purist. Okay, elon musk is not someone in fact. Let me see if I've got that. Oh no, it's later. Elon Musk is a purist and so I'll show that in a second. So Carolyn Levitt confirmed this is from the Last Refuge, who, by the way, I believe these guys believe Last Refuge writes for conservative treehouse. I think they're part of that, that blog, which is a really good blog like excellent political commentary, but it's kind of high level, but excellent political commentary.
Speaker 3:And they're, they're I don't know. I guess you'd call them conservative, obviously conservative tree house. So this is a grace Chong who's a reporter. She goes Trump a hundred percent sided with Besson. After the class she added I don't think Besson has any bad blood, but he's got a job to do. He's going to do it okay. So this is what was reported.
Speaker 3:Former chief strategist steve bannon told dailymailcom that musk's turbulent time in the white house was marred when he physically shoved 62 year old treasury secretary scott besant's after he was confronted over wild promises to save the administration a trillion dollars. So the the opinion of the politicos is that by elon musk saying I'm going to find a trillion dollars of waste, fraud and abuse this, let the politicians off the hook because, okay, we can get rid of waste, fraud and abuse and hopefully it's all. Just, you guys can do it executively and we don't have to like own it right, we don't have to do the hard work. So if you cut a program in our district, we'll go back. Oh, we're gonna go fight the executive government for cutting the funds, but they didn't want to cast a vote Right.
Speaker 3:So by Trump, by Elon projecting that he's going to find a trillion dollars this year in the budget. It made the politicians be like, ok, well, let's just do our normal thing and he'll cut off the fat. And that's not what happened. So there's a lot of contention that, hey, we set the stage to where the representatives and the senators didn't do the work and because you didn't find a bunch of a trillion dollars of stuff to present to him on a platter, now you're asking him to still go do the work and structurally find it. Scott Besson called him out and said you promised a trillion dollars in cuts and now you're at like a hundred billion and nobody can find anything. What are you doing? A prominent MAGA figure revealed.
Speaker 3:Now this is one of those things where it's like, remember, they've got ghost printers, they've got treasury checks going out with any kind of you know who to or why to, or where the source is, or anything like that. So they cut all that off.
Speaker 3:So this is probably a trillion dollars right there the problem is you don't know how much was going out, right, you don't know exactly what the flow of money is. They stopped, stopped, and so we're starting to see things like well, the treasury has a lot more money. Wow, do you know? Like that's because the the allocation of money, the appropriation, wasn't matching up with the actual expenditures. I mean this these budgets are massive, and so, yeah, like, well, there's dead people on social security. Well, how many of them are dead people? Right, like we don't have solid numbers, because are they even real people? You know, like there's a whole. What did you find? So you've got one hundred million dollars of obvious cuts Institute of Peace, usaid or whatever which I think were programmatic, they were going to happen regardless.
Speaker 4:Right, but there's a bunch of cuts that you can't quantify. You can't quantify, yeah Right, which could easily have reached a trillion dollars.
Speaker 3:I mean it's all in this like everybody's trying to fix the thing where you don't know.
Speaker 4:Right, it sounds like Scott Besson kind of just discounted that and this was like hey, you're not finding enough, come on.
Speaker 3:You can't prove anything. So it's like you know, scott besic, uh, and that's when elon got physical. It's a sore subject with him. It was. It wasn't an argument, it was a physical confrontation. Elon basically shoved him. Bannon said. The physical altercation altercation came as the two billionaires shut, moved from the oval office to outside chief of staff suzy wiles office and then outside the office of the national then national security advisor, mike waltz. Trump 100 sided with besant. After the clash he added I don't think besant has any bad blood, but he's got a job to do. He's going to do it. The revelation of a confrontation between the pair was confirmed by white house press secretary carolyn levitt on friday.
Speaker 3:So it's like a pushing match getting out the door, yeah, so bannon has a huge axe to grind with elon, which we'll talk about as well later. So this could be just and and they're. And he's friends with scott besant. Scott besant used to come on the war room regularly. And and it's bannon who introduced besant to the uh, to the maga audience, because, remember, besant comes from the george soros foundation. Besant's, you know, an unknown hedge fund manager and he's a gay man.
Speaker 3:So there had to be a breaking of the ice to the maga world and he, you know, apparently he's great I've no complaints but uh, so scott besant and his bannon's definitely on scott besant's side for what it's worth, and I want people to know everybody's self-interested here. I'm self-interested. I mean, the whole point of the peasant's perspective is I want to be selfish about my needs as a peasant.
Speaker 4:I still like I'm tired of sacrificing for them. I'm still in a position where I still like Elon, I still still like Trump and I still like Scott Besson. I really like them all.
Speaker 3:I'm taking the official attitude. I'm looking at John Adams and and thomas jefferson and I'm like debate. Yes, please debate, that's what america?
Speaker 14:is it's?
Speaker 3:about the debate.
Speaker 3:It's about the argument, maybe not the pushing and shoving yeah, okay so this is kind of where it all you know elon comes in. A couple days ago I wanted to just break down his white house meeting because there's a lot of good clips. They were complimentary of each other. Elon had the black eye, said his son punched him. It was, they were just horsing around, got a tiny little black eye. That set conspiracy theorist wild because you know you got the black eye club thing going on. It ties into dark secrets and so you know there's like but it was a great meeting. He got a key to the country right. He got the little big golden symbolic key, you know, and they kind of complimentary, didn't seem like too big a deal. I saw a little Elon head nodding when Trump was talking. Elon was doing some of this, but he does that, you know?
Speaker 3:I mean I think a lot of people have said that Elon probably either a he's such a genius that he's just this way, or he probably has some Asperger's right.
Speaker 4:Either way is a genius.
Speaker 3:Either way is a genius, either way is a genius. Yeah, one's not exclusive of the other. But while trump was meeting with the uh uh, what do they call it? Mertz from germany? They call it chancellor from germany, okay. So while trump was meeting with the chancellor from germany, he got questions about, you know, elon musk.
Speaker 16:Elon.
Speaker 3:Musk. Did we cover it? We did cover it yesterday. We said I can't wait any longer. This big beautiful bill is crap. You know, those of you House Republicans did this. Yeah, we did wrong.
Speaker 3:We did show something about yeah, so Elon is clearly in opposition of this big beautiful bill. Too much money. Again, I'm unclear what sheet of music Elon's working off. I feel like Stephen Miller and the Trump administration is painting a picture of. You know, this is structural changes. This is all discretionary spending, which is mandatory. We're going to get to the mandatory spending, which is discretionary, in the different means. We're going to do a series of rescission packages, like I feel like they're laying out a, a game plan that allows them to pick away at the problem in a political way, chunk by chunk right and it, and, and.
Speaker 4:At every stage it didn't seem like there were any real opportunities for there to be some kind of a problem between trump and elon.
Speaker 3:I still don't see it, oh I this is probably a lot of personal tensions okay I said expectations, you know even bannon's constantly.
Speaker 3:Where's this trillion dollars? Well, it doesn't just look bad on elon, it looks bad on trump. So the political answer is distance yourself from the person. Let them be the scapegoat. There is a high possibility and we talked about this the other day that this is some kind of big game and the internet is ablaze with. This is an op, because one of the things that's a net result of this, we'll get there all right, okay, so this is donald trump talking about the elon question he gets asked but if they picked him, I would have won pennsylvania.
Speaker 16:I want to buy a lot, but I'm very disappointed because elon knew the inner workings of this bill better than almost anybody sitting here, better than you people. He knew everything about it. He had no problem with it. All of a sudden he had a problem and he only developed the problem when he found out that we're going to have to cut the EV mandate, because that's billions and billions of dollars and it really is unfair.
Speaker 16:We want to have cars of all types electric, we want to have electric, but we want to have gasoline combustion. We want to have different, we want to have different, we want to have hybrids, we want to have all. We want to be able to sell everything. And when that was cut and Congress wanted to cut it, it became a little bit different and I can understand that. But he knew every aspect of this bill. He knew it better than almost anybody and he never had a problem until right after he left. And if you saw the statements he made about me, which I'm sure you can get very it's very fresh on tape uh, he said the most beautiful things about and he hasn't said bad about me personally, but I'm sure that'll be next, but I'm I'm very disappointed in him and I've helped elon a lot I just want to clarify did he raise any of these concerns with you privately before he raised them publicly?
Speaker 3:and this is okay, all right so you know well, elon doesn't like the bill. You know, I'm a little disappointed.
Speaker 4:You know, coming next is probably whatever I mean, this is just trump being totally authentic, like wildly authentic I assume that you're going to play the cut next of elon saying he doesn't need that in the bill okay, so that was back with the bill under the biden administration.
Speaker 3:Okay, I think it was the inflation reduction act. Okay, kill it. Okay, he still is. He reposted that same video being. This is my opinion on the mandates I don't care right, but I don't think you should be giving the oil and gas industry subsidies and not the ev car subsidies. He's like just take them all away get them all.
Speaker 4:Get rid of all of all the subsidies.
Speaker 3:Yes, so his position is get rid of all the subsidies. Yes, right, that's a fair position, but if those subsidies are in, then you've got to put you know. Now we're talking about fairness like that's the here. You're trying to create equality by somehow. You know, really, you're just playing favorites.
Speaker 4:So it's not whether it's in or out, it's that it's in for one class, and you have to remember, elon is the only EV company that isn't a petrochemical company.
Speaker 3:Right, right All the other companies Ford, gm, so they're the only ones that are out of balance.
Speaker 4:They all Right.
Speaker 3:Right, all the other companies Ford, so they're the only ones that are out of balance have gas something, I mean maybe some of the very new Rivian, but I bet you go find the ownership and you'll find out like Chevy owns Rivian through some private equity fund, right, right. So Tesla, to my knowledge, is the only. I guess you know there's a couple of newcomers, but point is, tesla's been the one that they're purely on the electric side.
Speaker 3:So EV mandate or not, right? They're not getting gas subsidies. So Ford can be like okay, well, if you're not going to give us EV subsidies, give us Hummer subsidies. You know, that's their mentality there. And if you make gasoline cheaper, so if you subsidize gasoline in any way that makes cars cheaper.
Speaker 4:So maybe Elon's upset about there's still an imbalance between the two.
Speaker 3:That's my gut instinct is. It tells me. He says get, eliminate all subsidies. But if you're going to subsidize them now, we're having a conversation about fairness and we're spending money to do this, and I don't you know what I mean. Like do you see how hard of an argument that is for Elon? He's like I'm not saying put the EV credits in. I'm arguing that you can't put it in for them and not for me, but I would prefer you not put them in at all. Please don't make me argue for my own benefit, because that's not my bigger picture goal. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. Like yes, I've actually been in some situations like that. Like how dare you make me defend russell brand? How? Dare you make me defend you?
Speaker 3:know these abhorrent groups. You know what I it's like. I don't want to defend these people, but you're making me on principle, that's, I think, in Elon's position. He's like no, now you're forcing me to stand up for my company on the grounds of fairness, instead of stand on my principles on the ground of let's not spend any money.
Speaker 4:Yeah, and nobody should fault him for that.
Speaker 3:Bad position to be so. So, elon, if you go to the screen here, yep, okay. So he starts tweeting out Senator, you know, starts going back a little bit 19 hours ago. He's got John Thune talking about To get kids and teachers back in the classroom. We need to balance the budget. We're deeply in debt right now. Okay, balance budget or bust. I super agree with this guy. He tweet quotes Mike Johnson At some some point, congress has to stop this endless cycle of out of control deficit spending. Can we raise the you know deficit? He's throwing their words back in the faces, right? He retweets the interest costs on the federal debt as it increases year over year, which, by the way, let's just look at this for a second this is really incredible. 2014 416, 2015, 402 433, 459, 523 579, 5 you get to up to now one, three trillion.
Speaker 4:It just add that up. That's a lot since 2014.
Speaker 3:Anyways, that's a lot of cheddar and how much of that was budgeted. That's the question. Congress is spending america into bankruptcy. Yeah, who is right? Elon musk or donald trump?
Speaker 4:a million six hundred should we decide right now and vote I listen, I understand how these guys silo.
Speaker 3:I do a lot of liking and stuff on posts and things, but I get really hesitant to like click on some of these, so yeah I'd never during this I'm just gonna ride the fence on this one and I'm not going to make any. You know, somebody quote tweeting me. You know, although I don't know, but somewhere the algorithm knows I clicked on one of these.
Speaker 4:I think that in the end you have to pick the president every time, but I don't know.
Speaker 3:OK, you want to pick the auto pen? Ok, so Elon Musk here. Then he tweets this is what he said about jared jared was jared isaacman the nominee for nasa. Musk wanted this jared isaacman to be the nasa director because nasa and tesla obviously work hand in hand yeah jared is a democrat said negative things about trump, has a bunch of.
Speaker 3:Basically he's just been nothing but a hardcore democrat. So trump just said basically, after pressure was like no, we're, you know, the republicans won nasa's important. We're not going to give it to someone that's potentially ideologically going to block us from who knows what right. And I think nasa does things space-wise, that it's not just taking pictures of earth from the space station okay so, but that apparently upset elon um. So then someone he tweeted what elon musk is doing is genuinely heroic. He will win no friends in politics and will be ostracized by the current administration. But he's totally right. We we the Western world, simply cannot go on pretending our way. Life is sustainable. Historically, countries built up surpluses in peacetime and then go into debt to fight wars. We are going into more and more debt during peacetime. Clever economists will tell you this is sustainable. It is not and someone has to do something about it. Okay, so then Trump quoted so let's jump over here to the Trump deal, so we'll get these side by side here. So Trump jumps in.
Speaker 3:So after he gives that speech then Elon Musk starts the tweet, trump stops the meeting and then Trump jumps in and truths elon was wearing thin in quotes. Now, wearing thin is something that was reported in all the liberal rag media a couple weeks ago about it actually was a while ago, like during the campaign even oh, elon's hanging around too much, he's wearing thin so trump quoted that and remember what we did a couple more days ago.
Speaker 3:Elon said the news is completely fake so part of this is they're quoting news snippets like as if it was pre-planted and that now they're. You know what I mean? I'm not saying it's all 5d chess. This could just be straight out in the open feuding, okay, like that's the thing. We are not going to know, even if they say it out of their mouths. Now I'm to the point where now I don't believe you guys. Yeah, yeah, because now you're in the game.
Speaker 4:Now you're on the stage.
Speaker 3:Right, ok, so Elon was wearing thin.
Speaker 4:There's could be some kabuki theater.
Speaker 3:Oh, people like Liz Crocker are like, because one of the net results of this and I'm just teasing it out One of the net results for this is you got people who have been clamoring to keep things hidden, want transparency to keep things hidden, want transparency. You're gonna blow your mind when you see this, the easiest way to save money. So so then trump tweets out elon was wearing thin, I asked him to leave, I took away his ev mandate that forced everyone to buy electric cars that nobody else wanted and he knew for months I was going to do it and he just went crazy. But that's not really right, because if you remember back when they had the whole tesla sale at the House, they he was like I'm taking away the mandate and Elon, he hasn't said anything. He's so great and gracious, like anyone's, like you know no subsidies, so Elon didn't care.
Speaker 3:So is Trump really making this a thing? Or are they just amplifying the old story that the liberal news that they were saying wasn't true at the time was true, that there was a wedge between them over the evie mandate issue, but there's been no evidence of that. Okay, when you come over here. So then elon musk said such an obvious lie, so sad.
Speaker 2:so is he saying that trump is lying or is he saying that the wearing thin story is lying?
Speaker 3:okay, okay. And then someone goes uh, uh, okay. So then trump says this the easiest way to save money in our budget, billions and billions of dollars, is to terminate elon musk governmental subsidies and contracts. I was always surprised that biden didn't do it. Comes back around and goes this just gets better and better. Go ahead, make my day, erlich burgers. In response to that, this would be the end of the international space station and simultaneously no provide, no safe way to de-orbit it. And then, uh musk posts post this he goes. Time to drop the really big bomb at real donald trump is in the epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Boom, have a nice day. Apostrophe, we got hiroshima, okay. So whole topic in and of itself right. So assume what you will, because that's the intended consequence as the Internet goes on fire.
Speaker 14:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Because a common thing of the left is hey, what are all these pictures of Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell and Trump? Right and Trump definitely had interactions with Epstein. They were neighbors and they in fact Trump bought his Mar-a-Lago property out from under Epstein back in the day, like there's a whole backstory between these guys, including the fact that Donald Trump's the first person to say that Epstein likes the girls young, and he's also the one who kicked him out of his club. So there's really no connection. Some more locker room. But Epstein is, or Trump is, in the epstein files 100. So we know that because in february, when the files that we'd already had were released at the white house, trump was in him. He's flown on his plane. You know he was in the black book because you know that's no secret. All right, so that bomb gets dropped, okay. So then? Um, so then trump? So then trump says I don't mind elon turning against me, but he should have done so months ago.
Speaker 3:This is one of the greatest congress. It's a record cut in expenses 1.6 trillion dollars. That's their math. Again, there's no universal sheet of music that they're playing on. The white house has said the cbo is crap and are completely ignoring it and this is your savings. But this is how we came up with a number saying well, we always rely on the cbo because those are our people, that's where we get our numbers, where we get our numbers, because we don't have a calculator and so we have completely. There's no connection here. So that's why part of me is led just by that fact alone. Somebody's not informing somebody, somebody's not listening.
Speaker 3:They're not they're not on the same sheet of music, so is that even possible?
Speaker 4:and it's not even that they're being a distrustful or dishonest. It's just that they don't have the data that they can even make this kind of a statement definitively, is it?
Speaker 3:possible that they know this and that they are working, make this kind of a statement definitively? Is it possible that they know this and that they are working on the sheet of music? And this is a way to corral the different factions. You've got the budget hawks and you have the compromisers, so the budget hawks are going to rally around Elon and then, when Elon leads them right back into the bill because Laura Loomer, she posted a prediction it's going to be hilarious in a couple of months when Elon, standing behind Trump's bill, signed and it's a slim, big, beautiful bill so there could be. We talked about this the pincer move. This looked like the original split. This looked like a pincer move. It still does it. Still it still does. Pundits are going to say what pundits are going to say Just let's look at the fruit of this.
Speaker 4:Let's look at the result, and it could be that this little text thing back and forth is to obscure even further the pincer movement that is just too obvious to some of us here's the again.
Speaker 3:Just because it looks like a pincer move doesn't mean it's their intention to do that no there's a scripture in genesis, chapter 50, after, after joseph has been in, you know, sold, thrown into a pit by his brothers, sold into slavery real crappy deal, by the way, you know, made a slave thrown into prison. Even worse, by the way, I don't know if you've ever been in prison. This sucks, okay, does that for seven years. Then then becomes like number two in charge of the pharaoh, but he's a whipping boy because he's basically got to run an empire, which this is not easy work. I mean, there's a reason why he's doing it for pharaoh. Pharaoh doesn't want to do it. Yeah, sunbathing, right, so hard work. And then all of a sudden you're put in his position, where here come your brothers, the whole story happens and he reconciles with his family and ultimately saves the nation.
Speaker 3:And in genesis, chapter 50 is in the last chapter it. It says you know, I will take God's allegedly God speaking, I will take what is meant for evil and turn it into good, right? So think about sold in slavery, evil, slave evil, prison evil, all this evil. Imagine Joseph's mental state. Yeah, right, I can see this, I'm optimistic, but don't, there were some dark moments. Seven years in a dungeon is a long time, and he didn't know the future.
Speaker 3:And this whole time having the memory of being thrown in a pit. This whole thing is a tragic story until it's over. So just because it looks like a pincer move doesn't mean that these guys know it's a pincer move, because God pincered Egypt. And then eventually here comes Mosesoses and they're like we're free. Yeah, okay, I don't mind elon turning uh on the budget. Oh, we already read all this. No, I don't mind elon turning on me. He said he would have done this months ago.
Speaker 3:This is one of the greatest bills ever presented to congress. It's a record cut in expenses 1.6 trillion dollars and the biggest tax cut ever given. If this bill doesn't pass, there will be a 68% tax increase. I don't know that number. I don't know, and things are far worse than that. I didn't create this mess. I'm just here to fix it Again. This puts our country on a path to greatness. Make America great again.
Speaker 3:When people pundits have gone through the breakdown of what's in the bill, which we haven't done, a breakdown on the bill, but it's amazing things. I mean it's like yeah, I want that. I want that. It's all the dictatorship, authoritarian powers that I'd want a philosopher king to have. I'm a little concerned about the successor. So there's a debate here. So Trump posts that I am. Oh, it's going to talk on this. Ok, so then that pretty much closes down. Trump tweets again this morning. Prices are down, income is up, our borders closed, gasoline is cheap, inflation is dead, our country is booming. Companies are pouring into america like never before. Cheerleader trump. America's hot. Six months ago it was cold as ice. Borders closed, prices are down, wages are up all right. So that's trump. So then jump over here to elon musk. He drops the big bomb and then he elon posts this.
Speaker 16:They could very well be people I know. With all that, elon, I want to thank you. I know you've been through a lot with this horrible situation that happens saving america.
Speaker 16:That's very unfair. What he is is a patriot. He's a man that I can tell you. He's a friend of mine. He's become a friend of mine. He supported me in the election.
Speaker 16:That's when I got to know him Really. I knew him a little bit from the first term, but not much. But he's a patriot more than anything else. He's never think of it. He has never asked me for a thing he could have. I always say I wonder if he's ever going to ask me for something, and that's always subject to change and if it does change I'll let you know about it.
Speaker 16:But Elon has never asked me for a thing. I mean I got rid of the electric car mandate. I have no idea how that affects him, but possibly not good, I don't know. But he's never asked me for a thing and I think that's an amazing tribute. I did get activated last week when I saw what they were doing. I said he makes an incredible product and we're going to go out and tell people you can't do that stuff and support him. They've got to support him Because if he wasn't doing this he wouldn't have any of these difficulties and I think it's getting less and less. Pam has done a great job with regard to all of the you know.
Speaker 16:I mean I know the kind of investigations that are going on. If she finds so, he's very complimentary of elon, right?
Speaker 3:elon's not asking anything and he brings up the mandate and elon's sitting right there. Okay, so then trump quotes about this. He goes when trump said he's going to end the subsidies and contracts for uh, for spacex. He goes in light of the president's statement about cancellation of my government contract. Spacex will begin decommissioning its dragon spacecraft immediately. Oh, okay, so then must retweets. The world's greatest fiction writers couldn't have conceived of a timeline like this. And musk's laughs 100 and laughter emoji okay. So then elon musk, on his uh epstein file tweet said mark this post for the future. The truth will come out right. So this is elon uh ian miles chung, who's just an online influencer troll. President versus elon, who wins my money's on Elon. Trump should be impeached and JD Vance should replace him. And Elon Musk retweeted that and said yes, whoa, yep. So then Elon Musk tweeted this with a little questioning face the relationship between Twump and Epstein is well-established.
Speaker 3:Trump flew on Epstein's plane at least seven times, so it's not clear he ever went to the Island. This is where Trump said about Epstein in 2002,. This is where Trump said about Epstein in 2002. New York Magazine profile. Epstein likes to tell people he's a loner, a man who's never touched alcohol or drugs, and one whose nightlife is far from energetic. And yet if you talk to Donald Trump, a different Epstein emerges. I've known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. At this time they're just neighbors, right, trump booms from a speakerphone. He's a lot of fun to be with.
Speaker 3:It is even said he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it. Jeffrey enjoys his social life. So from one billionaire to another billionaire, that's a damning statement, right? Just fyi like so, but elon musk is like. But to even imply this guy's into younger women, it opens the door like. That's not something that you would say clearly that was the intent when epstein's trying to stay on the dl saying he doesn't touch drugs or alcohol or nightlife and he's like now he does he's, he even likes him young.
Speaker 3:So elon musk then retweets this little bit with uh, scott adams, which was when he was talking about but, they're talking about. And uh, when elon met bill gates and bill gates had shorted tesla, and he's like, are we here to talk about climate change and philanthropy? And he's like, yeah, he's like, why'd you short Tesla? He's like, oh, my financial advisors Like is it about the money? It's like I'm Tesla's doing more for climate change than anything else in the world. Do you need the money?
Speaker 3:He's like top of the teat to pay the bill. Richest guy in the world, biggest tax liability across the board period. Okay, so he's probably more sensitive to his tax liabilities. Like, I'd rather not pay the taxes than get it back in subsidies. That's stupid. That's just a cycle and it creates regulation and accountants and it's its own industry to just be paying and then getting the subsidies. And paying and getting the subsidies. Yeah, don't do that. Um, the trump tariffs will cause recession in the second half of this year. So elon says that, oh, okay.
Speaker 3:Then elon musk treats out this video of donald trump, you know, partying and dancing and touching women on their hips and pulling them in close to him at different nightlife parties and stuff like that. Ok. Then he retweets someone who said Elon stance is principle, trump stance is practical. Tech needs Republican for the present, republicans need tech for the future. Drop the tax cuts, cut some pork, get through the bill. Ok, then you post some startling stuff. You know, blah, blah, blah.
Speaker 3:And then jd vance yesterday did an interview with theo von the comedian and he goes and jd vance posted slow news today. Today, what are we going to talk about? Laughing, right, because the internet was on fire, um, and then he posts this if america goes broke, nothing else matters. An old video of him talking about that um. And then we start getting funny stuff, right? So trump on the epstein list, elon does ketamine the two active x users. You know x, just on fire, probably had twice as many things going on yesterday than ever before and he's laughing 100 on target now.
Speaker 3:Keep in mind, as this is going on, the, the conspiracy theorist. This is an op they're doing. You know, my pincer move theory is now lots of people are like they're trying to get the exposure on the epstein list and they're trying to break the log jam and the democrats are holding it back and if it's, if they think trump's in it, they're gonna get it released. And then people are like trump's, you know not on the epstein list. You tell me that you put him in jail for 700 years over tax fraud and they had a video of him and they didn't release it. Right, are you kidding me? You know so anyways. And then things kind of settle out and Trump and he starts to retweet things, saying that he, you know, is looking forward to reconciliation and you know they should work together. We're stronger together than apart puts out a a poll here saying is it time to create a new political party in the middle that actually represents 80 in the middle, yes or?
Speaker 3:no so yeah, the peasants party, the peasants party yes a brand new party started right here, right now so then politico reports the trump white house signals uh, a possible detente right. There's a couple things here that basically saying that they're settling down. And then cnbc this morning said trump is not, uh, that they were going to have a phone call today. That was the reporting last night as I went to bed. But then this morning trump, not interested in a call with musk white house official, says what's better to talk about. It doesn't work for us. It's just a private citizen, oh, cold hands.
Speaker 3:So let's just to overcap the Trump Epstein allegations. Of all the videos I saw circulating yesterday, I found this one to be the most complete, with kind of all the coverage of the links between Trump and Epstein. So let's listen to it. So you got to get a flavor of, yes, there's a connection between Trump and Epstein. It's been well-established, but this is what that connection has played out to be.
Speaker 10:Maybe maybe we'll play it the buffering, but we're supposed to like rush limbaugh, like slap some papers and Epstein was with the member's daughter the other piece and I interviewed a woman who would run the spa there and I said do you know Jeffrey Epstein? She said, oh yes. She said he used to come over to the spa and I found him to be inappropriate with the girls, the young girls there. And she said I went to Mr Trump and he threw him right out.
Speaker 15:So it's your understanding, then, that President Trump didn't know what Jeffrey Epstein was up to?
Speaker 8:That's correct Mr Bradley Edwards, attorney who's represented many of the victims of Jeffrey Epstein.
Speaker 21:The only thing that I can say about President Trump is that he is the only person who, in 2009, when I served a lot of subpoenas on a lot of people, or at least gave notice to some pretty connected people that I wanted to talk to them he is the only person who picked up the phone and said let's just talk. I'll give you as much time as you want. I'll tell you what you need to know and was very helpful in the information that he gave, and gave no indication whatsoever that he was involved in anything untoward whatsoever, but had good information that checked out and that helped us, and that we didn't have to take a deposition of him. That was in 2009. That was in 2009. So do you know if there's?
Speaker 12:any truth to James Patterson's claims that Trump kicked Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago.
Speaker 10:I've definitely heard that Epstein liked stars. I mean, one of the weird ones is Stephen Hawking. He did take Stephen Hawking to his Lolita's Island, which is really odd, but and he loaned Clinton his plane at least on four occasions and it was. It was and I'm not just saying this because, because I know the president, but it had to do with the foundation drudge.
Speaker 23:And lo and behold, the top story is Epstein had Trump on the plane. Yeah, Trump. So you got like I don't know, like 50 trips with Bill Clinton. He's not mentioned, but Trump is mentioned. But, Mercedes, are you aware of the detail that came out today when the pilot Epstein's pilot was asked specific questions about high profile people such as Trump, and do you know what he? Said Tell me what he said.
Speaker 23:I thought you'd find this interesting. He says, yes, I did have Trump on the plane as the as the headlines of the Drudge report are blazing in red. However, I wasn't down to Lolita. It was actually a trip by, like Mar-a-Lago to New York. He wasn't. He wasn't actually going to the island apparently that was a the.
Speaker 3:The rides on lolita was a hitch a ride situations incidents there. One was apparently.
Speaker 3:There was a forty thousand dollars, just, uh, my jets going to new york, just hop on. You know, and that's a common thing. By the way, I did know somebody who owned in a small aviation airline flying these little cessessna jets, you know, like charters them out and that's not uncommon. So he's neighbors. He was neighbors, I'm assuming. He still lives there, I don't know, but he was neighbors with, like Jenna Jameson and a guy that did Rock of Love. What's his name? He's the rock star. What's his name? He's the rock star.
Speaker 3:Anyways, he lives down in Scottsdale on this, you know, billionaires row or a hundred millionaires row, and so they all fly in his plane. So Brett Michaels, that's his name. So I went to pick him up from the Boeing International Airfield because that's where the private planes fly in, and so I'm out there on my car, on the tarmac right, getting ready to pick this guy up, on my car on the tarmac right, getting ready to pick, pick this guy up and he, you know, the pilot gets out and the pilot opens up the little cargo thing, cause, you know, there's their own flight crew and they're unloading the bags and they unload this gray leather, really nice gray leather duffel bag, like one of those really expensive, like thousand dollar leather gym bag, but it's a duffel bag, but it's like italian leather, like really fancy, you know, super soft, pulls it out and sets it, you know, for us to grab, and then jim goes oh, that's brett's bag, put that back on his brett, who is brett michael's bag. He's like he left it on the plane. He's like, put it back on, it's got to make its way back to scottsdale. No, he's like that's brett's bag, and uh, so anyways, I've seen brett michaels luggage. It was so fancy it strikes me to this day okay. So, um, very interesting stuff here.
Speaker 3:So elon comes out with all that and then, instantly right when elon does that, couple other things happen. You get ron desantis who sends out a fundraising email saying elon's right, trump's wrong, they're not cutting the budget. How dare they? Oh my gosh. So now this is whiplash, this is a wedge and this is calling the herd again. Man, is this a pincer move or is this a an operation? You know dynamite. So matt gates, who's an expert political operator, couldn't keep himself out of trouble, though had this to say about it, which I think is really interesting, and he's kind of tying all these pieces together. And, matt gates. You know the reason he's not going back into politics. He's like well, when you get released you don't punch your jailer in the face that's basically what he did he punched him in the face on the way out the door.
Speaker 3:Oh, really oh yeah, I mean the way he went out. He's like they're all lying and cheating and stealing, you know. And he's like they say I have an affair, you should see what they're up to. You know, he just completely like he just he never took money from pax and so he's more than happy to dish on the financial fraud and stuff like that and uh, anyways. So he's talking about the political ramifications of all this.
Speaker 19:Owned by the bank or owned by foreign interests. But chomping at the bit is political operative information warfare extraordinaire. And while you and I are having a reasonable, high-minded debate about the critical importance of reducing federal spending, Vish sees Ron DeSantis in that video and he makes a crass cold, political calculation. Vish Burrow, what do you see?
Speaker 14:These comments by Ron DeSantis. This is basically him angling and making an overture to Elon Musk to be his number one funder for the 2028 primary campaign he's going to wage against shady so you believe this is the first chess move in in the big battle for the elon 2028 endorsement well, I don't think it's the first chess move, but I think this is the chess move, a big chess move, that shows that he's going for the big we all saw.
Speaker 14:Yes, that we all saw, and yes, that we all saw and it's clear as day. I mean, look, I think it's also disingenuous that Ron is going out and saying that, mainly because if Ron DeSantis was in the Congress today, right now, and he had to vote on that bill Totally, would have voted for it. He would have voted for it 100%. And why is that? Because Ron DeSantis is a normal politician who will, who all the same normal political pressures applied to him and affect him, just like every other normal politician.
Speaker 19:we know you were so inspired to hear Governor DeSantis wax poetic about these reductions when you hear us say that he would definitely have voted for that bill.
Speaker 13:does it hurt, it doesn't hurt and and it makes sense. But this is where you know. When you and I had these conversations and I talked to you, I told you this earlier. I feel like you know, you guys, you see the inside of the political machine, you know how the gears operate and I feel like a country bumpkin. You know when we talk about this stuff, because I'm just looking at it for its value man and I'm like hey, yeah, de santa said he's disappointed in this. I'm disappointed in this.
Speaker 19:I agree with that, and you're over here like that snake I mean, look at shit, I gotta pull on the string, though by the way, vish burrow is a political campaign guy like and he does a lot.
Speaker 3:He was a war room producer like he's with. He sees the back room. You said that in private. You're saying it on public.
Speaker 19:You know like he sees it is he the front runner for the elon endorsement for 2028?
Speaker 14:well, you know what? He was the front runner for the elon endorsement in 2024. He was remember when ron desantis made an announcement, or was going to announce his campaign. Yeah, he uh was going to do it on twitter. On whose space? Elon musk space, the space that would eventually crash, but nonetheless it was. Elon was already ready for desantis back in 2024. Yeah, I think he's definitely at least primed for it in 2028 and, uh, I think that this also gets to elon's uh, you know, I guess you could say ego where he wants to. I'm sure Elon wants to see the Doge cuts, because they are a good thing, and wants to see those things codified. That's a that's sincere patriotism. That is over my view, yes, but like there's also, you know, on some personal level, he wants to see that through or wants another shot at it, and I think he would see if Ron DeSantis is getting and putting that up as a priority.
Speaker 14:He would, he would get behind ron take, though, yeah, but again, this is with the intent of primarying jd vance and chipping off the fiscal conservatives, the thomas massey's of the world, the chip roy's of the world, the dana lesh nate never trump, kind of uh well, cohort there that are, that fiscal conservatism is like top priority for them. It's meant to chip off that block yeah, I was gonna.
Speaker 13:I was gonna jump on that and say that that your take assumes that desantis thinks that vance is not going to be in the run oh, he's gonna hang it around his neck, he's gonna.
Speaker 14:But desantis is gonna hang this bill around vance's neck and say you were the guy who helped pass this monstrosity of a bill and ran us up into this dead and with all these deficits, it's, it's it.
Speaker 19:I could see it clear as day up in here, you know I I would be advising him to do that. So so, let's, let's, so, so that's the political machinations there.
Speaker 3:What's interesting, though, is, again, with this bill, oh, he's gonna hang it around his neck. What if it's a wild success? What if the tariffs work? What if the restructuring works? What if?
Speaker 3:you know, what I mean, like I don't know man they'll be hanging around his neck like a clock for yeah, for long-time listeners of the show, you know I've always been very wary of ron desantis when he showed up in the uh reports out of guantanamo bay about rendition and torture and there's vignettes and you know reports of him standing in the room while terrorists are being tortured to no avail, by the way, right. So I have a hard time with that. The navy always a navy seal. He was a jag officer who's an attorney, which means he was the guy that was like, yes, uh, 29 seconds of waterboarding is fine, but 30 seconds, that's torture you know what I mean.
Speaker 3:Like that's, that, that's his yeah character and remember he married his wife, who's a black, who? Her father was george hw bush's dick cheney. You know what I mean as to george, not dick cheney, they were all and his father was his like fixer. You know what I mean. It was like his underling. That's always. You know, dan Scavino is to Donald Trump, so Ron DeSantis father-in-law was the Dan Scavino to George HW Bush, but a much more calculated political operator. Dan Scavino is just more like media tweets and a nice little caddy. Trump does his own media marketing. Okay, but that's a very politically connected family. A lot of people suspected their relationship is more of a political relationship than anything else. Okay, so this is Mike Johnson responding to the Elon Musk Donald Trump feud.
Speaker 12:I've talked to President Trump all the time, multiple times a day. Obviously, we've talked about this. He's, as you know, he's not, um, he's not delighted that, uh, elon uh did a 180 on that, but, um, uh, look, I don't know what happened in 24 hours. Everybody can draw their own conclusions, okay, um, but I look forward to talking to my friend about it again. And I'm not upset about right, yeah, olivia calls him back today. So they're kind of downplaying it. I'm not upset about it, right, yeah, olivia calls him back today.
Speaker 3:So they're kind of downplaying it. I'm not upset about it, okay, because again, is this a pencil move or is this just downplaying it? We're never going to know. All right, last Refuge pointed another comment because JD Vance put out President Trump has done more than any person in my lifetime to earn the trust of the movement he leads. I'm proud to stand beside him. And then last refuge made this comment the movement he leads, Notice the distance. You'll always wonder how the predictive analysis seems to surface accurately. Well, just notice the little things, follow the relationship and trust your intuition. Why would JD fans not say our movement? I don't know, donald Trump doesn't call it my movement. Calls it our movement.
Speaker 22:So, this is the final reporting on the Trump Elon feud this is coming out of on the South Lawn a few months ago to try to help Elon Musk's business while it was being vandalized. We are told that that Tesla still sitting there the red Tesla with Florida tags is either going to be given away or sold off. And we are told that it was about a month that Elon Musk was wearing thin on Trump. So this was not a sudden exit and then blow up. There was about a month that he was wearing thin. The president's word, something else there was some reporting today about the possibility of a Trump and Elon Musk phone call to make nice. Aides are telling me that is not something they are tracking. It's possible that some staffers might try to talk to Musk, but no Trump and Musk call, at least not that we know about. We did hear from the president yesterday and he didn't sound mad, but he sounded disappointed.
Speaker 16:Elon and I had a great relationship. I don't know if I can say it well, but I'm I'm very disappointed in elon. I've helped elon a lot and, I'll be honest, I think he misses the place.
Speaker 17:I think he got out there and all of a sudden, he wasn't in this beautiful oval office the lowest blows yesterday came from elon.
Speaker 22:He said without me trump would have lost the election, dems would control the house and the republicans would be 51 49 in the senate.
Speaker 3:That was probably more offensive to Donald Trump than anything else.
Speaker 4:All right, because it was mostly true.
Speaker 3:Not done. This is Steve Bannon. Remember this is these are heavy hitters. Steve Bannon has been anti Elon Musk since the beginning. He's the one who said Elon Musk used to come around the White House with his tin cup asking for money right For funding for this or funding for that. So this is Steve Bannon on Tim Pool's show in 2023. Again, this is a know thine enemy situation. We just clear eyes about it, right? I like a lot of the things Elon does, but I've been fully aware of these issues, oh yeah.
Speaker 9:He's owned by the Chinese Communist Party. What are you talking about? Tesla is only sense of. Only thing of real value is Tesla. He uses it for margin loans. He sells the stock. The Shanghai joint venture is 100 percent controlled by the CCP. This is why. This is why he never goes after the CCP. This is why he always backs off. This is when they had the protest. They had the protest about the lockdowns of COVID he. He will not do it. Elon Musk, the protest they had the protest about the lockdowns of covid he, what he will not do it. Elon musk is a total and complete phony. He is in bed in a business party. He's done some good stuff. Letting stuff out uh, you know, with tayibi and others is fine, but he is owned lock, stock and barrel by the chinese congress party and he acts like it there was a story recently that they warned him to stop talking about lab leak 100 he's got and I think there was.
Speaker 9:They want him to take down the tweets he did the first time. Now he didn't take him down, but you notice he didn't have any more up there after that and I wonder if he said okay, I won't tweet more about it, but here's.
Speaker 7:Here's the issue I see with the ccp in the united states and if the united states falters, if this fourth, by the way, the ccp.
Speaker 9:chinese companies are all in the Silicon Valley. Oh yeah, it's another thing they're already talking about. We think maybe up to a third of those innovative companies may be CCP.
Speaker 3:That was in the Silicon Valley bank failed. Oh, so that? What do you think about that? Elon Musk being involved with the CCP?
Speaker 4:Gosh, I don't know man. It sounds possible, plausible and worrying.
Speaker 3:Yeah, elon Musk by his actions I've really taken favor. I do believe he was influential in the election, at least in taking all seven swing states. Yeah, I mean he definitely got Silicon. He gave permission to Silicon Valley to get behind.
Speaker 4:Trump Right, and if you're just watching his fruits, he looks like pretty good fruit.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and I again, I've been impressed with a lot of things, but there are a lot of things that make me roll my eyes a little bit. I think it's awesome that he wants to be a daddy and have a bunch of kids, but it's a little bit weird how he's going about pulling that off, you know. But then again, you know, my biblical heroes were a little weird too.
Speaker 4:How many kids has he got?
Speaker 3:now 13 or 12, quite a few, but lots of baby mamas. But then again I remember being in prison with one guy how many kids you have? 13, how many baby mamas 11, your family pictures look pretty crazy. He's like, yeah, competing with abraham's tie from kansas city. Wow, another guy you know how many kids you have? I got eight, four with one girl, four with another. Like, tell me the ages of his kids? I'm like one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, at least it wasn't all eight, eight, eight, eight, eight, eight.
Speaker 14:There was a couple duplicates.
Speaker 3:It was like it was like one, two, two, three it was like you got there's no gaps. Oh, it's two mamas. But he married one of them, but the other one's cool with it, she's still, you know, it's for the family, but he's looking at like 20 years in jail. So bannon, president trump, should act immediately. Okay, okay, guys. I love Steve Bannon. He's my spirit animal. I really enjoy Steve Bannon. I agree with a lot. This is where I'm starting to go.
Speaker 3:Remember the boot on the right foot, the boot on the left. It's still a boot on your neck. He doesn't know anything.
Speaker 9:He doesn't know it all. He knows some engineering, don't get me wrong, know it all. He knows some engineering, don't get me wrong, I give a hat tip for that. But he doesn't know anything about the real world. Doge was again for any fanboys that still exist. Well, you're wrapping up in your cape tonight, understand. On doge there was, he didn't find any fraud. There's plenty of fraud out there. Didn't find this is president trump's first complaint. Was this all bs right with the uh, with with the, with the doge, the act should that president trump should be taking immediately. I think when he threatens to take one of the big programs out of uh, spacex, president trump tonight should sign an executive order, uh, calling for the defense to production act to be called in spacex and seize spacex tonight before midnight. Well, you know anything.
Speaker 3:He's a no and he goes on to say and he's an illegal immigrant because he overstayed a student visa back in the day and he should be arrested, denied citizenship and yeah, so that's a super wild. So, when it comes to bannon, he's pretty hardcore on china and ccp and he sees elon musk as a ccp ally.
Speaker 4:Ultimately, even if it's only just a little teeny wedge, it sounds like he's not having any of it he's not having any of it.
Speaker 3:Yeah, so, uh, I wanted to cover this. This is another little interview thing from brett weinstein and he talks about, uh, an issue we have with the covid and the shots and the immune system, and he says something in here which says this is just one of a million examples. Okay, and I want you to hone in on that one of a million examples. So this is not meant to be a COVID discussion that I want to have here. I want to have the biological, evolutionary discussion that he's using the COVID shots as an example and how the control freaks who think they understand something, get in the way of something that's not there. Okay, so listen to this. Oh, you know what? I'm just going to preemptively refresh because I'm learning my lesson as the show goes on.
Speaker 18:Disturbing findings, I think during the COVID debacle, was that people who had had two or more injections with the mRNA so-called vaccines triggered the production of something called IgG4. Ig stands for immunoglobulin. It means antibody, g is a subclass and IgG4 is that downregulation signal or one of them that causes the immune system to reduce its reactivity.
Speaker 3:Okay. So what it's saying is, when something's exposed over and over and over to something, the immune system goes oh, this is normal, and so it down regulates the response, kind of like um crying wolf? Yes, exactly, oh, the kid always cries wolf.
Speaker 3:So we don't even get out of bed anymore. Meanwhile, the wolf might be knocking at the door, right, right, that's exactly what he's saying there. Okay, so by over doing, booster after booster after booster, your body's response ended up being oh, this is normal and therefore it doesn't have an immunological response to it. That's the pattern.
Speaker 18:Thoughts that were supposed to be increasing the reactive capacity of the system to COVID particles were doing exactly the inverse when we looked at them, which, of course, fits with the observation that, in fact, the more vaccinated you were, the more likely you were to contract COVID, which, of course, should have stopped us from doing any more of this inoculating the moment we knew it, which we didn't do, which we didn't do, which we didn't do.
Speaker 18:So all of this sounds to me like, at best, the result of a kind of hubris. You're intervening in this delicately balanced system that is built specifically to be able to react to pathogens that your ancestors have never seen before, and by intervening in a way that is supposed to increase our capacity to fight the pathogen. It shouldn't shock us that, in fact, what we have ended up doing is because the shots were required. What we have ended up doing is because the shots were required, many of them. We gave the body the, the indication that this was a common feature of the environment, and it started turning up its down regulation signal Right. So you know one in a million examples of the hubris of scientists and doctors who think they understand a complex system, intervene and produce an unintended consequence that is counterproductive. I imagine you've seen that a lot over your career?
Speaker 6:Sadly, yes, and this is. The IgG4 is interesting because it's a byproduct of the allergists who are using allergen shots. And people can immediately see that by having three or four or five or six or seven shots for COVID, because it's getting ahead of you, is exactly the same as going to the allergist and having the same sorts of shots for inhaled grass pollens or house dust mite. But in fact the body doesn't sort of quite necessarily distinguish between a virus antigen and a house dust mite. So we're inducing exactly the same. And the IgG4 became a marker and was first looked at by the allergists because they found this was happening when they were. They like to see it because it's working.
Speaker 6:You're suppressing the immunity against a pollen which you don't want to get because it's working. You're suppressing the immunity against a pollen which you don't want to get because it gives you hay fever and asthma, whereas with COVID we're now creating, in my view, a population of people who are on the cusp of getting more severe and more continuous COVID infections. And we knew all of this at the beginning because they'd shown that with flu, if you give the same flu vaccine a year in a row, you get 20% less antibody. So it's on the way. They don't get the negative immunity and recurrent flu the same way, but they would if they gave seven or eight uh infections do you follow that I'm slowly becoming an anti-vaxxer?
Speaker 3:so what he's saying is we have, we have this effect, right, if you introduce something into the environment and you, your body should be attacking it right you introduce it so often, your body goes oh, that's normal this is syndrome.
Speaker 4:It's like you're breathing air now.
Speaker 3:But this is battered spouse syndrome. It's like, oh, the hitting and the abuse is so normalized that you don't realize. I'll be honest with you, If I slapped my wife, she's out the door. So when I see people it's like how many times have you slapped your wife? She's normalized it. That's what he's saying Now on the allergy size.
Speaker 3:That's a good thing. They want to expose you to pollen over and over and over to where your body stops having the reaction, the allergic reaction, to fight it, Right. So it's like we know the process. But he's like this is another one of those things. We're coming down from the top and intervening. This is what happens in the market. Right, when you come down from the top and you intervene incorrectly, if you're not looking at the big picture, there's a mess. I've mentioned this before. In college, in my economics class, we studied how a dollar came off the interstate and went to the Applebee's yes, and it got spent 28 times before it left the city. Yes, Okay. So why is it that when we cut taxes, we raise revenue? Connect those two things for me.
Speaker 4:Oh man, You're asking me to think when we cut taxes, we increase revenue.
Speaker 3:Yeah, so I need to pay for things and I need more money on my revenue base.
Speaker 4:And so why would the?
Speaker 3:solution be to cut taxes.
Speaker 4:You sell more stuff. Why do you sell more stuff? Because there's still more circulation bingo and it's not getting chiseled off with every transaction bingo.
Speaker 3:So just like the dollar coming off the highway, if I've got a bucket of money right and I have a hundred dollars and I got to give 50 to the government, I'm going to take that other 50. I'm going to spend every one of those dollars and it's going to spend 28 times 50 is my gdp okay, okay now, if I get 40, 51 of my dollars, it's 28 times 51.
Speaker 3:I get 52 of my dollars, it's 28 times 52. And if you're getting, say, 17 tax revenue, well, when the gdp goes up, 17 of 52 times 28 is greater than 17 times 52 times 50. 28 times 50. See what I'm saying. So for every dollar you leave in the american pocket, that's 28 more dollars on gdp. So you can have a lower tax rate and actually make more money because the gdp gets hired, because the money's moving more what if we just take it to zero?
Speaker 3:Then it would be 100 times 28. Ah Right, but then again, what would you be taxing?
Speaker 4:So it sounds to me like 1% to 3% is probably about the right tax rate 1% to 3% sounds good to me, sounds great. Well, you'd be getting a lot more money because there'd be a lot more money circulating.
Speaker 3:This is why Donald Trump's idea is you could eliminate the internal revenue system and only tax it at point of sale and on import, which is a point of sale. Okay, yeah, because if that money's spending 28 transactions and if you just leave it in the market, it'll be, it'll infinite, because it comes off the highway, goes back on the highway and just goes to another town that increases what's called the velocity of money.
Speaker 3:The velocity of money because really that one dollar came into our small town and it moved around 28 times. If that same dollar got dropped off in Denver, it might move a thousand times before it leaves that city because there's so many new places for it to go.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Do you see what I'm saying? So by cutting taxes, you raise gdp, which ultimately raises revenue. This is why the trump tax cuts. The last time around you do a trump tax test, oh my gosh, how are we going to raise enough money? And this is where the projections got it wrong, because the projections never seem to to project that when you, when an american, saves a dollar, they will reinvest that dollar in the economy, thus raising the overall gd. A rising tide raises all boats. You know it's the same thing. Well, let's give a vaccine. Well, that makes you sicker. Well, let's raise taxes to pay for things, because we're going off a fiscal cliff, or you can cut taxes, do you see? What I'm saying.
Speaker 4:Yes, I do, okay well where's the spending?
Speaker 3:Well, just like we were talking about earlier, those sat, those solar farms and wind farms and red states. Hey, let's cut bloated spending. Well, hold on a second. I'm not really too worried about these wind farms, but I want those dollars moving around my economy. Do you see what I'm saying? So could you give us something else? Yeah now coal plant, all that all that makes a difference on where the money goes. Remember we talked about that refugee shelter in Houston that was completely empty and they were making a thousand dollars a night for beds.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Right, that's money going out that's not circulating because it's going into some deposit account. That's not going to employees that are then redistributing.
Speaker 4:It's going into a heat sink.
Speaker 3:Yes. So the other thing that was a I kind of jumped ahead of this, but the other thing that was a huge deal with the Elon Musk tweet, especially about the Epstein stuff is.
Speaker 3:All of a sudden, you had Eric Swalwell. You had the Democrats, the Democrat Twitter account saying release the Epstein files. You even had Ted Lieu, which, by the way, ted Lieu's big donor was the billionaire that was arrested four or five years ago for having two or three male prostitutes die of overdose in his home. Can't remember the guy's name. He's a big donor to Ted Lieu and Ed Buck was his name. Ed Buck, do you know Ed Buck?
Speaker 4:No, okay, let's do this. Watch this.
Speaker 3:I do recall vaguely a story about somebody that had some people that were dying. So this is, this is why it's kind of important just to um, remember people. So, ed buck, ted liu, let's see if we just come up with something real quick, okay, so this is ed buck the billionaire, and he's here. He's with ted liu, uh, here he's with hillary clinton, here he's with Hillary Clinton, here he's with Adam Schiff. These are other politicians no-transcript. So you know, hey, we talk about associations. Well, here you go guys. Here you go guys. Here you go. Right, this is ed buck with all your favorite california politicians. You know, clearly, here, ed buck, wearing the rainbow stuff. He's an ally, of course there's ed buck.
Speaker 3:Oh, man again, just a bunch of freaking weirdos just saying these people are weird, as weird as it gets, all right.
Speaker 4:I'll turn that off, sorry.
Speaker 3:So Ted Lieu, who has his own association to be concerned about this tweet from Elon Musk, shows again that I was right. Trump is all over the Epstein files. I urge the Department of Justice to release all the Epstein files. What is the trump administration hiding? Hey, the democrat party doesn't want the epstein files release. Oh, now they do so funny meanwhile, uh, dan bongino had this to say he was interviewed on hannity.
Speaker 4:Oh, excuse me, wrong post completely we got bongino and cash both going.
Speaker 3:Oh, we saw it on tape so bongino and cash is talking about uh coming for the corruption.
Speaker 20:So this is about. Are you going to be looking into cash and pam, any potential collusion between the DOJ, letitia James, the novel legal theory of Alvin Bragg or Nathan Wade or Fannie Willis and the DOJ? Is that something? Has anything come up? Is there any way to determine whether or not evidence was destroyed in any of these cases?
Speaker 5:Well, there's always a way to determine that. I don't want to comment on that specific case right now for a reason. I don't want to get ahead of the Department of Justice on that. But I want to say this you know, the FBI obviously has the public corruption portfolio and, yes, if you are a corrupt politician out there, if you are engaged in behavior, you know what you're doing we're going to find you. I promise no one is going to get off the days of selecting and putting your partisan bias on and taking care of your friends. Those days are over. You know what, sean? I don't have any friends. I don't want any friends. Well, maybe outside of you and I don't care. I didn't come here for the money.
Speaker 5:I didn't come here to make friends. I don't give a damn about friends. I don't have any friends. I don't want any friends. I got my wife, I got you and I got a small crew of people, so I don't need any friends. But if you're a politician, we're coming for you. That'll help yeah.
Speaker 3:You want a friend in dc? Right, get a, go, get a lab or do it like I have, because there are no friends in dc. You've been doing this what 30 years. There are no friends here. Okay, so he's got no friends. If you're a corrupt politician and you know what we're coming after you, we're waiting. I got, I got a few names for you.
Speaker 4:Like I don't know, we'll see we can probably whip up a comprehensive list in two days another big thing here, and this is a big deal.
Speaker 15:Christy noam got rid of the quiet skies list, which is the no fly list that I was on got rid of it listen to this wow department of homeland security secretary christy noam, and today I'm announcing that TSA is ending the Quiet Skies program, which involved having a federal agent follow US citizens as they traveled by air.
Speaker 15:It was created by Obama in 2012 to supposedly track dangerous individuals, but instead it was weaponized against political enemies such as Tulsi Gabbard, and since its existence, it has failed to stop a single terrorist attack, while it costs US taxpayers roughly about $200 million a year. Now, the Department of Home and Security and TSA have uncovered documents, correspondence and timelines that highlight the inconsistency of the application of Quiet Skies and this program, under the guise of national security, has targeted political opponents and benefited political allies of the biden administration. In addition to conducting our own internal investigation, I'm calling for a full and thorough congressional investigation to uncover further corruption that's in this program. So tsa is going to continue performing important vetting functions to stop security threats and to ensure the safety of the American traveler. The Trump administration will return TSA to its true mission of being laser focused on the safety and the security of traveling public. This includes restoring the integrity, the privacy and the equal application of the law for all Americans.
Speaker 3:I was on that list yeah it wasn't just a matter of process no right? Not at all well it was, it was just a lot of process targeted.
Speaker 3:It was designed to make your my life's completely inconvenient. Yeah, nearly cost me a court date which would have remanded me as a probation violation, right, because I missed a flight. And, by the way, the flight left early, left closed the gates and was away five minutes before takeoff time. I could have made it, but you know what? They were late getting the marshals there. That's the only I think. They honestly locked those doors and pulled away, knowing that they probably didn't have the marshals following me yet because of the, my flight was like at 6am and you know.
Speaker 3:But the whole thing, this is insanity. The no fly list being on, that was insanity. It made the calculations for travel were like you know, it wasn't worth traveling if I, if I, wasn't passing Denver because the amount of time I would take in security both ways I may as well just hours, half a day just to get through security with the quiet skies thing, let alone the fact that you're being followed and scanned and blah, blah, blah, right. So getting rid of that program which was blatantly being used as a weapon, yeah, big deal, very cool and a huge admission Like these guys are doing stuff you know, that program is not going to come back in the same form, probably come back in some way.
Speaker 3:But I hope that by calling for the investigation, just expose it. You know what I mean. Like a bare minimum expose it. And if you've got smoking guns, like, hey, put Taylor on the no fly list because he's a partisan, you know, because he's this like that's a crime, that's a deprivation of rights.
Speaker 3:You know I have a right to travel Geez, I follow of rights. You know I have a right to travel geez, I follow all the rules. All right, so this is comes from the whatever podcast. When I see these clips come up, I almost always just completely ignore them because they're usually just this is like junk you've got a couple guys who are clearly, like christiany, conservative, and they bring on a bunch of female. You know instagram influencers and only fans. Hot takes of female. You know instagram influencers and only fans hot takes yes, and you think about this way but think about that.
Speaker 3:But the one thing that this does is it often shows that these people are like their brains are kind of weird. I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 3:So this year they're talking about racism and the reason I'm going to play this clip is I want people to understand that we have a heavy lift. Like these are our cousins, sons and daughters. Like there's people that just are not using logic or reason. They're completely programmed. Too much tell-lie vision, too much programming, too much propaganda, too much indoctrination. Their worldview has inconsistencies. If there's contradictions, check your premise. This little clip here is like full of contradiction. It's a question over race. So I'm going to play it because I want you guys to understand that out there in the world, our listeners to the show are premium. You understand big words. You're trying to grasp political concepts. You're curious about why gas is as expensive as it is. You know, I mean, you guys are like at the tip of the tip of the spear on like comprehension, even though you feel overwhelmed. Trust me, you're light years ahead of it should scare you.
Speaker 3:Yeah, one of the things one of my college professors said he was a he was a dual department professor, so he taught in the religion department and he taught in the political science department, and so I was taking a class that was a crossover class, it was history of Western Christianity, and so it was not only a religion credit but it was also a politics credit. Love this professor. I used to have lunch with him, took every class he offered. He was total mentor for me. I had that absolute connection with this guy.
Speaker 4:Okay, your fan boy.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it was a big fan boy. He was this guy, okay, your fan boy. Yeah, it was a big fan boy. He was a democrat, too openly democrat, pretty liberal for a church member at a church school. But uh, so you know, he helped me see and understand why you would have you know regulation and things like that. So I I get the debate. Uh, he, as a college professor, was never regulated. As a business owner I was regulated. So I'd come back to him and be like have you ever been at the short end of the law? I'd be like you ever had a little bit of that. You know regulation, okay. So the reason I'm pointing this out is you guys are like high comprehension, so it's hard for you to understand how people can arrive at this particular point.
Speaker 8:They can't be racist against the white person, can a black person? They can't be racist against a white person that's for both of you could a latino person be racist against a white person?
Speaker 11:no, can black people be racist against asian people I think it's a different type of racism because black people do not have the power to uphold that racism against asian. The most it would be would be a bias or colors. You realize how racist that is to say right. Is there something genetically off with black people that they, like, can't manage to like navigate, like where's this line of reasoning go? It's so racist to be like black people, can I? I know that you're talking about like a group, but it's just like bigotry of low expectation is still racism, it's still a problem.
Speaker 8:It's not okay black people are capable of doing things like duh, like I know. That's what I'm saying can asian people be racist against black people? I'm going to say yes, because it's interesting that you're quicker to say that asians can be racist against black people, but black people can't be racist against asians because a couple asian girls in the room like what?
Speaker 3:the brains are broken clearly. Okay, this woman's got more followers than we do. Ron, maybe we should just go full-on. Stupid, you say it all the time like let's just get a bunch of cat videos, right? Uh, this is called tiktok rot, this is called indoctrination, this is called systemic thinking, when the world's really about individual reactions.
Speaker 3:So that's what I'm leaving you with today, folks, the peasants, a lot of them, are the public. The definition of the public is the unknowing, the unlearned, the, the unwise and the dumb. Try not to be just the general public. Okay, let's be special. Let's be a little bit better than this. Let's be the solution we want to see in the world. Share the show, spread the message, get the education and the information out there, get your kids' and sons' and daughters' and brothers' and sisters' brains, brains on straight, right and let's change the world for sure. All right, guys, don't forget to visit the website peasants perspectivecom. Buy me a coffee. All this different show links. Please absolutely visit 1776 live. And we are left behind and without. I found out last night at the dinner tables I was getting updates for the day that left behind and without has pretty much allocated all of the funding that they have for summer camps and things for different kids. And they have new kids and for the first time ever they have a waiting list.
Speaker 3:So they're serving almost 100 kids and now they've actually have a waiting list oh so those kids will not have an activity if they we don't procure some funding so there is a real need.
Speaker 3:Yes, these camps are not wildly expensive. You know, a hundred dollars for a summer camp or the different activities. So please, please, please, consider going to left behind and withoutorg and making even a small donation, whatever you can. The YMCA is partnered with left behind and without and they provide $7 memberships at the YMCA and they will. They will kids that become members, they can get into camps and stuff like that. So everybody's location is is different. Not every kid has access to ymca, but my point is even a seven dollar donation could secure a membership at a ymca which can open up a world of opportunities yeah, so skip your mocha today yeah.
Speaker 3:So please consider that, please consider leftbehindwithoutorg that money goes to help kids. It is a big, big deal your way still later. Also, I have some excellent news. Do you remember when we had a live air call from one of my prisoner friends, earl? Yeah, prison. So I can say this now oh, earl found out yesterday. No, earl's story was he was arrested. He's been in prison for 43 months. Yes, almost 44 months.
Speaker 4:Yes.
Speaker 3:Pre-trial Moved almost 44 months. Yes, pre-trial moved around. Ended up in missouri at the mental health hospital being examined for competency. Yep, totally competent guy. They said he was delusional. Then they said he had schizophrenia. He does not at all, but when you keep a guy in a room for eight hours and are asking him probate questions, you know eventually he starts giving you both answers because like what do you want from me? So, anyways, I got a call from him yesterday. He actually called while we were on the show here. Yeah, his case got dismissed. Uh-huh, earl the man.
Speaker 3:Hopefully he's gonna get transferred back to his home state and be released. I don't know how that's gonna look, he's not certain. But he talked to his. The doctor came and said hey, you're basically done like you know, don't that's? Really good news and then he called the attorney and the attorney said yeah, they've, they're dismissing your case. So I don't know if the judge has signed the order yet or what the case is, but that's excellent news yeah, but this is a travesty.
Speaker 3:Uh, they took 43 months of this man's life yeah, to come to the conclusion to drop the charges right he essentially got to the point where he served his entire sentence because he's at guidelines right to where if you did go through a conviction, which would probably take another year to get the trial done, it would be a time served out the door situation.
Speaker 3:Yes, they stole four years of this man's life. They took 20 of his teeth. He currently only has four teeth. Okay, they pulled them all rather than treat them or anything. If you have any cavity in prison, extractions they're only dental solution. He lost all of his teeth and it wasn't in long enough from when they pulled him to get the veneers right. You got to be there like 18 months with no teeth before they'll give you dentures. So he is homeless. He is totally got nothing when he gets out, so I am not in a position to help too much. So if anybody's interested in helping earl, I'd be happy to facilitate that. Where's he call home? He calls new mexico home, okay, but I'm not sure he's going back there okay, well I mean he'll probably get released there, but he is.
Speaker 3:He was homeless. Basically he was one of those va homeless guys, sort of homeless. He's homeless, uh, before. So he doesn't have a place to go back to, he has no, he's older, 60, 60 something. He has no living family.
Speaker 3:So, uh, yeah, anyways, but great man, great man and good news 24 year veteran us army, excellent, excellent to hear that, so I'm super excited and hopefully the good news continues and he ultimately gets out. I told him call me. It gets a little hairy on the release and I don't know how all the paperwork is going to work out for him, but it's pretty awesome. All right, left behind withoutorg. Talk to you guys again tomorrow.
Speaker 1:Old woman, man, man, sorry, what night. Lived in that castle over there. I'm 37. What? I'm 37. I'm not old. Well, I can't just call you man. You could say Dennis. I didn't know you were called Dennis. Well, you didn't bother to find out, did you? I did say sorry about the old woman, but from behind you looked.
Speaker 1:What I object to is that you automatically treat me like an inferior. Well, I am king, oh, king. Eh, very nice. And how do you get that? Eh, by exploiting the workers, by hanging on to outdated imperialist dogma which perpetuates the economic and social differences in our society, if there's ever going to be any progress. There's some lovely filth down here. Oh, how do you do? How do you do? Good, lady, I am Arthur, king of the Britons.
Speaker 1:Whose castle is that? King of the who, the Britons? Who are the Britons? Well, we all are. We are all Britons and I am your king. I didn't know we had a king. I thought we were an autonomous collective. You're fooling yourself. We're living in a dictatorship, a self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working class is oh, there you go, bringing class into the gang. That's what it's all about. If only people would Please, please, good people. I am in haste. Who lives in that castle? No-one lives there. Then who is your lord? We don't have a lord. What I told you? We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week. Yes, but all the decisions of that officer have to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting. Yes, I see, by a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs, be quiet. But by a two-thirds majority in the case of more major, be quiet.
Speaker 1:I order you to be quiet. Order. Who does he think he is? I'm your king. Well, I didn't vote for you. You don't vote for kings? Well, I can become king. Then. The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest, shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I'm your king. Listen, strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony. Be quiet. You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you. Shut up. If I went round saying I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away. Shut up, will you Shut up? Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system. Shut up. Oh, come and see the violence inherent in the system. Help, help. I'm being repressed, bloody peasant. Oh, what a giveaway. Did you hear that? Did you hear that? Eh, that's.
