Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're like, holy shit, dancing on the fucking roof. It's like,
you knows, rubbing if he's rubbing our face in it
or something, or what he's doing. And then they said
he wants nuclear protection, nuclear bombs on the roof of
the White House and all this stuff. I'm like, what
is going on with this guy? I don't I don't know.

(00:23):
I think that it's it's it's too much to process.
There's there's too many crazy things go on from day
to day to actually process them. Like some of those
things I just I just brushed by. It's crazy too,
because you would think if the president of the United

(00:43):
States was dancing on the roof of the White House,
that's something you talk about. But I'm like, I'm not
even fucking going there. This place has gotten so wacky.
It's like a it's like a freak show at this point. Well,
and what did I say to like our foreign partners
and stuff like that. This guy is imposing record fucking

(01:05):
terrorists and threatening different countries. And then they turn on
the news and he's on the roof of the White
House dancing. You know, you know what they fucking said
to India? He said, fuck this guy we're gonna get
our oil from Putin and we don't care about I mean,
this guy's dancing on the motherfucking roof of the White House.
What what what.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
I know?

Speaker 1 (01:30):
I mean, it's like, it's not what we it see.
It's not even what Americans think about it, because we're like, oh,
that's so funny. It's a great video. He's probably dancing
to YMCA. But there's an entire economy, a global economy
that's driven by the White House and driven by the
President of the United States and the United States, and

(01:52):
they see that and they're like, oh shit, we gotta pivot.
This guy's a fucking whack job. I mean, he's crazier
than we thought. So that's what I think about dancing
on the roof. For the way, Well, what it does
to your pocketbook before it's over? Right? I mean, if
India now runs to the Kremlin for oil, they're going

(02:15):
to be doing other things. And then see how long
is it before Canada does the same thing? Does Canada
join bricks and say this dancing fool just fucked himself.
And on top of that, we could call him diddler
on the roof.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
I guess because he took a page out of the
Dancing Israeli.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
No, no, I didn't say fiddler. I said diddler, diddler
on the roof, because he's saying he's protecting fucking pedophiles.
And on top of that, he's saying, if you don't,
if you recognize Palestine as a state, we're not going
to do business with you. How the fuck does that
benefit us? That hurts us. So your fucking allegiance to

(02:58):
Israel is going to bleed us. What the fuck I
mean that alone is worth getting impeached for. He just
out and just says it out and out in the open.
It's like, dude, you can't fucking You're supposed to uphold
the Constitution of the United States, not Israel.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
Fuck well, and then I, you know, because we will
get ready to travel, and then we were on the road.
So I missed it. Like the last two days, I've
been playing ketchup. But I think it was Monday. Wasn't
it Monday that he decided to send a nuclear submarine
in the direction of Russia?

Speaker 1 (03:30):
Well yeah, well yeah, but here's the thing with that,
that a lot of that's like fucking the media, that's
its hype. He's just pulling some strings. First of all,
we only have nuclear submarines. Yeah, there's no that's the
only submarines we have. So the media is like, they're
sending nuclear submarines, Well, what do you want them to

(03:50):
send something from fucking you know, nineteen fifty, nineteen sixty
some mothball night. We only have nuclear submarines, first of all.
Second of all, he's going to pretend like he's taking
a tough stand on Russia. That was to sell the
oh this, we've we've taken enough for Russia. We've taken enough.
Guff with there. I mean, if you really want to

(04:13):
here's the problem with the Russian thing. Okay, the FBI
and the Just Department have gone out of their way,
out of their way and Foyer requests filed by journalists
and other people to protect the fact that Trump was

(04:33):
in bed with a number of different Russians through the years,
friends with them, and laundering money for them. Okay, And
when you when you file for your requests and even
file lawsuits and stuff for documents about gangsters who were
fucking gambling at his casinos and who were buying massive

(04:55):
amounts of property at at Trump Tower and never living
in these never ever even stepping foot into these properties.
But they quote unquote sold the Russia collusion is there
and it's Trump one hundred percent. Yeah, so he's talking
about something. Oh the Russians they did this to this,

(05:19):
they interfered with the with the election, or they didn't
interfere with the election, or what did the FBI cover up?
And the FBI has covered up so many connections between
Trump and Russia it would make your head spin so
many that they can't even release him because it would
be embarrassing to the FBI and they and we have documents.

(05:42):
I'm saying this because we have the fucking documents. And
so that dog doesn't hunt, but it hunts to the
stupid people. See, it hunts very well for the stupid
people who think that Komi and these guys are going
to jail. And you think Obama is going to fucking jail.

Speaker 2 (05:57):
Oh that just crashed me up. But I hear that
step up.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Yeah, fucking laughable. And Brennan's going to jail with the secrets.
These guys now not going to jail that they're you know,
this is like law fair, this is pivoting and things
like that, and uh, and they're doing anything they can
to get that Epstein stuff off of the headlines, and

(06:20):
it's still not working. Still.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
How many weeks? How many weeks has this been hot?

Speaker 1 (06:25):
Now?

Speaker 2 (06:25):
At least? What is it a month already? It has
to be.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
Let me see, uh d o j memo about Epstein
not having any clients. M this is the fucking worst
game of Dungeons and Dragons they ever play. Let's see, Uh,

(06:57):
what's the date of it? Is? What I want to know?
It's got to be more than.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
A month, man, I'm saying yeah. I mean, it got
real hot when they started releasing the fire. They said
they were going to release all these files, right, but
Neson came out with nothing. Burger right, started with that
little uh uh media event at the White House World
the influence has got a file folder, right, and then
it went downhill from there.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
Justice released a memo on July seventh. Okay, so it's
been a month. Yeah, But here's the thing about the
shelf life of a good news story. Now is less
than three days. Used to be three days, Now it's
less than three days. Now you're on thirty days, thirty
one days. So it's not good anywhere. And they actually

(07:42):
had to shut down the entire Congress to try to
make it go away too. That's what's fucking crazy.

Speaker 2 (07:46):
Well, yeah, I mean, and that was so obvious. Yeah,
that didn't work. And then to your point, then then
where does where's he wind up in Israel? Like you know,
like like you said, take a vacation, You're gonna.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
Get your fucking fake Christian ass over here and to
the whaling wall, or give you a fucking rapture. We'll
give you a rapture, buddy. Yeah. But but what I'm
saying about Trump is his connections to the Russians and
Russian mafia is fucking historic and and a lot of

(08:24):
money connections as well. And so the fact that he
is doing anything where he sits up there and says
I have no connection to the Russians, and it's even
though it's another tier. They're talking about election interference, right,
and most of his influencers, his top influencers, are paid
by Russia. We saw this at Tinpoole, Benny the fucking Benny,

(08:49):
the retard and all these other people. Right, they actually
got caught taking millions from Russian Uh, real money, remember that?

Speaker 2 (08:59):
No, Yeah, no, I certainly believe you. Yeah, I mean,
I do believe they all paid off. I mean you know,
you go you look at anyone, Yeah, I mean you
go like if you go out like to these other
platforms right where all this craft exists right on Teal's
platform of rumble right. It is a conspiracy ary central

(09:20):
out there, right, I mean, you know it's and you're going, like,
who's paying these people to be on here right wing?

Speaker 1 (09:26):
Some influencers duped to work for Russian operation. US prosecutors say,
what's the date on that?

Speaker 2 (09:35):
What's the date on that?

Speaker 1 (09:37):
September fifth, twenty twenty four. An indictment file on Wednesday
alleges a media company linked to six conservative influencers, including
well known personality Tim Poole, Dave Ruben, Benny Johnson, secretly
funded by Russian state media employees to churn out videos
that were often consistent with the Kremlin's interest in amplifying
US domestic divisions in order to weaken US opera position

(10:00):
to Russian interest like the war in Ukraine. Uh, they
were paid, These guys were paid. Well, let me keep
going before I run my gap. In addition to making
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah indictment indicates that
Moscow has been attempting to capitalize on skyrocking popularity of

(10:20):
right wing podcasters, live streamers, and other content creators who
have found successful careers on social media since Trump a
US Just Department. Uh blah blah blah blah. These guys
made They were getting paid literally millions of dollars. They
were getting paid like one hundred thousand. Uh some were
getting paid one hundred thousand a month. Some are getting

(10:44):
paid four hundred thousand dollars a month. Uh well, here
it is. The indictment shows that some of the influencers
were paid handsomely. One unidentified influence contract included four hundred
thousand dollars a monthly fee, a one hundred thousand dollars
signing bonus in addition open formance bonus. That's one fucking guy.
This was Tenant Media was the was the group that

(11:07):
they formed, and that was out of Canada. Now Tenant Media,
I know that the is under criminal investigation in Canada.
So guys like Pool and all these guys and Benny Johnson,
they're under investigation in Canada and but criminal investigation. But

(11:27):
once Trump was elected, these guys got their get out
of jail free cart because the indictment was and they
were being looked at as well by the FBI and
the DJ. So the first thing is they filed against
the media company. They filed against the media company, and
then they were looking at these influencers individually. And what

(11:48):
they were doing is they were behind the scenes that
were leaning on guys like Timpoole, the FBI. It's you
see who they would if they would talk, et cetera.
I don't want to say too much, but because these
guys are weird, like I'm suing you, I am not
a criminal. I took four hundred thousand dollars a month
from four times a month? Are you fucking kidding me?

(12:08):
And so who else is involved in this? Let me
see Laurence Southern, Taylor Hanson, and Matt Christiansen were the
other ones. So Tim Poole, Benny Johnson, Rubin, Dave Ruben
and Laura Southern, Taylor Hanson, and Matt Christiansen And four

(12:30):
hundred thousand dollars a month, can you imagine I would
be just that's just here's the thing. Wow, these guys
make that's just one little brush back to the curtain.

(12:50):
These people were making money from a lot of other people.
They get paid ridiculous amounts of money to post who
knows what, whatever they're told to post, and then they say, well,
you know a lot of the stuff we were told
to post aligns with my personal views. So what did
I do wrong?

Speaker 2 (13:10):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (13:10):
Right, Well you took four hundred thousand dollars from the
fucking Russians a month.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Are you registered as a foreign agent?

Speaker 2 (13:19):
No?

Speaker 1 (13:20):
Are you a lobby a lobbyist who is allowed to
do this? No, there's a couple of things you probably
did wrong right there. Yeah, but anything goes with this crew.

Speaker 2 (13:32):
It is. It is just amazing. And you know, I
know that you have no fondness for Lumor, but what
I mean, what is with this crazy gal? Uh? You
know they keep publicizing like you know, whoever's covering whether
it's Axios or somebody's covering it. Right, It's like, you

(13:56):
know how she's managed the so called you know, influence
this and influence who's paying her?

Speaker 1 (14:01):
Well, that's the four hundred thousand dollars a month question,
isn't I mean? Who's where's she get the money from? Yeah,
we know that she's not doing her own research and
things like that, and why is she being pumped up?
So so why whenever I see like Drudge doing something,
I'm like hum, Because I think Drudge gets Drudge is

(14:23):
for a long time has engaged in pay to play,
you know, because he's just at this point he's as
disgusted as I am with the country, so he figures, fuck,
I'm going to be a gunslinger if somebody wants to
pay me to pump something up about it. Because Drudge
basically now is an influencer as well. So when I
see these people being pumped up, like he was a big, big,

(14:43):
big proponent for a long time a Rogan and until
Rogan got all his money and then he backed off,
it's like, what's going on here? So it's like nothing
you see is real? In other words, especially out with Lumer.
I mean, she's no, she's not capable of producing a
lot of the intelligence that that she's put out. So

(15:04):
she's just a front person for some kind of operation,
is what it is. That's all it is. And where
the money comes from you're not allowed to know. This
was a rare thing. See, that's like one of the
good things that I talked about the Biden Justice Department.
Sometimes they were doing some really good stuff. That was

(15:25):
a good thing. The fact that no different And when
that lawsuit came out, the first thing Benny Johnson said,
if you write something bad about me, I have the money,
I'll sue you. It's like, what what kind of fucking
defense is that? Yeah, they don't care. They just bank
the money.

Speaker 2 (15:42):
It's like, you know, well, and well that's that's what
I think. It's not obvious. I mean, I know it's obviously.
You agree, you talk about it all the time, and
I'm sure plenty of people that are listening to the show,
you know, if you look at this whole I call
it the trump On tarage, right, yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
Real quick, before I ever get is just repeating a
lot of stuff Marie and I have said for years too.
But okay, that's okay. But I mean, yes, it's just
like whatever, like they're makers and their takers.

Speaker 2 (16:16):
People understand that, go ahead, right right, right right, But
like you were saying, like a great example of that
whole thing is just like every time, you know, when
you just basically take you know, these clowns from you know,
Fox and uh and everybody and give them positions everywhere
everybody you could think of, right, you know, uh, the
judge right, I mean, uh, the tammy what's her name

(16:39):
is with Defense Department? Right, all these people, all the
talking head right, you used to watch on Fox all
the time, that's.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
The idiot and put it in NASA saying he's going
to build a fucking nuclear reactor on the moon. He's
a Fox guy, Duffy.

Speaker 2 (16:52):
Yeah, yeah, And I mean so so you got that
going on. So basically, you've just taken all the people
that have been you don't mind my language, you know,
mind fucking you for you know, seven eight years now,
and bring them out and now they're part of the administrations.
Everybody's applauding them because they're familiar faces. They're like, oh,
they're on our team. And you're going like, what's their qualifications? Well,

(17:16):
the qualifications are promoting you know, narratives. Obviously that's all
you see day and night and and and this leads
me to I wanted to ask you about this, Uh
could you what are your thoughts about, you know, like
with this all this stuff drumming up, you know, with
Epstein and Trump's involvement, Uh, just all the beenhagling with

(17:41):
you know, stuff with eos and and and like you said,
the indictments and stuff disappearing like this, Benny Johnson getting
a hall pass right now that these Trump's in office,
all this stuff, are you seeing a segue? You know?

Speaker 1 (17:57):
Like you?

Speaker 2 (17:58):
I mean, my feeling is somebody had asked me about this.
I'm kind of in this camp. I feel like they're
gonna you know, we heard this with Harris and Biden
to the whole brigod time, and then in the end
it turned out it was just during the it came
to the end to the election. But I'm wondering if
we're gonna see a switch out with Vance in mid stream.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
Yeah, I think that. I think I talked about it yesterday.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
I didn't I didn't hear your ship. Yeah, I didn't
hear I didn't hear old ship.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
Yeah. I think that. I don't think he can. I
don't think he wants to uh Trump, let's talk about Trump.
I don't think he wants to go to twenty twenty eight.
I don't think he plans to go to twenty twenty eight,
as VM has said for a long time, uh since
I mean a long time at twenty twenty five, since
he got back in office. He's burning too hot. In
other words, no president has fucking been this dystopian and

(18:49):
corrupt so quickly. And I'm thinking, oh, okay, he's on
a two year timeline, not a four year timeline in
his head. Yes, like I got two years to do
this ship and now. And I said in today's show,
I said, there's two possibilities. One they get blown the
GOP gets blown out in midterms, and this guy gets

(19:13):
impeached for real and goes down the tubes for real.
There's no fucking there's no life preserver this time, right,
But before that happens, he will resign like Nixon. He
and Nixon were good friends. Somebody sent me the other
day a number of different occasions that they were hanging
out together, the families were hanging out together. You know.

(19:34):
Nixon was from your old neck of the Woodsbergen County,
and Trump was right across the river. And so I'm thinking, oh, yeah,
he could just resign. I'm not being I peached a
third time. It's a which hunt. I'm done because two
days ago he endorsed Advance as his successor for twenty

(19:57):
twenty eight, and Maria called me right away. I said, Look,
look what he did. Look what he did. He's setting
it up. He's setting it up, and and I think
he's one of the reasons he's sticking around. VM made
a good point. He thinks the entire administration and the
entire second term of Trump was set up specifically, and

(20:20):
that includes putting idiots in the FBI, literally fucking into
the FBI so that they could whitewash the entire Epstein
thing and make it like it never happened. Also try
to normalize child rape with the intent of probably lowering

(20:43):
the age of consent. And getting Glaine out of jail
is a big thing. Getting Glayine out of jail is
a big thing. So that's what uh, And and lining
his pockets along the way, like VM thinks, that's that's
what this whole thing has been set up for. Now,
what I hear is I think if he's going to

(21:04):
uh hang in there until he can pardon her, they'll
be after the midterms when he planes on either ducking
out the back door or being run out of town
on a rail before he resigns, et cetera. He's definitely
I think he's definitely gonna pardon her.

Speaker 2 (21:21):
Yeah, yeah, Well, I mean, like you said, I mean
she's already in like a low security facility in Texas
now right.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:27):
Yeah, yeah. By the way, I wanted to say, so, yeah,
Nixon lived in Saddle River and Park Ridge. And when
I was in my early days, a guy went to
high school did landscaping and they used to do us
to the crew wherever he worked for. Uh. He member
him telling me, He's like, yeah, we were over at
Nixon's place doing landscaping or whatever. So yeah, yeah he was,

(21:49):
he was, Yeah, he's a North Jersey guy. I was surprised.
I always thought he had that house in California somewhere, so.

Speaker 1 (21:57):
No, he had to fuck did you ever see his
house in Burn County? Was like it almost looked like
Frank Lloyd Wright built it. It's like this low f
this like low hangout, big seventies place, you know, all
decked out.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
Yeah, but.

Speaker 1 (22:13):
I know he came into the paper for something back
in the day. I don't know what it was. It
was like a big secret service came in and everything,
and I always wanted to just be bop up there
and to his house and like secret sert, like hey man,
a pizza here for Dick Nixon. Man, there's kind of

(22:34):
trip around, you know what I mean with the But
I think that I don't think Trump has any any
problem doing a Nixon pulling Nixon because his unlike Nixon,
Nixon doesn't didn't have a cult following him. I think
people would applaud it. Yeah, you should. You know, they

(22:54):
come after you three times. This is bullshit, man, how
much can a man take? Yeah, they tried to kill him.
They tried to blow his top of his ear off.
They were trying to aim for the whole year, and
they missed, and they and so they tried to kill him,
and they even in piece them three times. You should resign,
You're too good for this country. And I think that

(23:17):
they're sitting they're setting that stick up, and you know,
on my way out the door, they targeted. They killed
her boyfriend on an innocent hike. They were hiking on
a lover's trail. I think it was at this point
who completely fucking lost it. They were hiking in a
park and a bear, a bear, I think it was
a bear, came and gord her boyfriend. Unbelievable. And what

(23:41):
happened was she ended up in jail because he had
some traffic tickets, and this is like crazy shit going on, man,
and people can be like, yeah, you should partner on
your way out the door. It's unfair. Once they did
to her too, and it's like what fucking movie am
I watching?

Speaker 2 (24:00):
Yeah? It really is. I mean it's like a the
States I get. I guess, you know, say stall, I'm
sad or whatever, because like you said, you know, you're like,
how how did I get here? You know, how did
I wind up? You know what I mean? Like you're
like going like when when did this like shift happen?

(24:23):
You know, I'm down talking a little bit like Carrier, right,
It's like, uh, you like like when when when did
the timeline shift or some weird thing go on? And
you know it, let's keep it ground, right, I mean.
So it's just you know in the sense that like
it is what it is. I mean, you can only
see and hear, you know what. We only can consume

(24:44):
what we see and here, you know more or less? Right, Yeah,
but it is like it's like Off the Sharks insane,
and and yet I'm going, like you still go to
other people like if I if I had sat down
with my kids tonight and I'm like and I start
bringing up some of this stuff. I mean, it's not
like they don't know what's anything going on, but there's

(25:07):
so many people that don't know what's going on, I know,
and and and and so, you know, like you said,
you're like walking around, You're like like like I'm walking
around like my own little personal like you know, sanitarium,
like you know, and I know that it's you know,
like you know, you you really and the people on

(25:28):
pain you know, for the most part of the majority
of you know, that they see this stuff going on,
and but when you get out to the you know,
the general world, it's a it's a rare it's rare air.
You know, it's a rare person you're going to find
and be like maybe you know you you know what's
going on here, and like they really know what's going on.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
You know.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
It's not like, oh yeah, I heard about that, and
they go yeah. But it's really cool though, that we're
you know, arresting you know, illegal immigrants, isn't it. And
and it just goes downhill from them, right, And so
that's what gets me the most, Mike. It's just just
kind of like I'm like, you know, you finally get
to a point, you know, prematurely retired, but you know,

(26:09):
you get to those retirement years, right, and I may
not be retired forever at this point. You know, at
some point something's going to give here. But but the
point is is you know, taking a break, you know,
give myself a sabbatical and uh but it yeah, I
think I think that's what gets me the most is
that it is unbelievably you know, you're watching this go on,

(26:36):
and you know it's all being portrayed like it's supposed
to be a good thing. It's it's eroding almost everything
we thought we stood for. And at the end of
the day, you know, putting politics and drama aside, I
think you've netted out all the time, I asked. I
use this line on people too. I'm like, has your
bottom line gotten any better? And most people will go no.

(27:00):
I'm like, well, that's all that really matters, isn't it.
It's supposed to get better, right yeah, supposed to get better,
right right? Yeah? And I mean and so I can
tell you and that's where when we started out talking,
you know, I said, like, you know, here there's a
three year anniversary. I can't tell you how many in
good ways but also not so good ways that life

(27:21):
has changed in three years. You know, I'm reflecting upon that,
right and and and I got a bit, you know,
it's like I'm you know, I'm glad that I can
ponder some of this stuff, you know, in the pine trees,
so to speak, at altitude, you know, versus having to
do it down here in haities. Yeah you are, you know, yeah,

(27:46):
and uh yeah, I mean yeah, just you know, you're
pulling the town here and you're like, oh, here we
go with the grid again, you know. I mean I
was literally pulling into the side street here, yeah, just
the subdevelopment here. And it's not like a gayety commuter
is that, you know, it's an older neighborhood. And and
I was like, as pulling in the cop and the

(28:07):
cops are pulled over and somebody got pulled over, and
