Alexa, Nick, Brian, and Gerald join host Jeff Perla on the latest episode of the show to discuss the latest in the latest conspiracies surrounding the F-35, the Trump administration, and much, much more!
00:07:12.000Hey, before anything else, if you see this, I know we're on YouTube, so hit the like button, but if at any point, and I guarantee you you will today, you see this while you're on YouTube...
00:07:44.000Early this year I came out as gay to my husband, soon to be ex, and he had the sweetest and most amazing reaction, and this is what he said.
00:08:22.000Now, I don't know every action that he's taken, so there could be some exceptions, but as I've always said, the exception does not prove the rule.
00:08:28.000As a general rule, whatever that man does, do the exact opposite of him.
00:09:59.000No, it starts with a disparity in power with lesbian couples because unlike with gay couples where you both have the nuclear option, with lesbian couples there usually tends to be one who's pretty dude-like and is just the one willing to resort to violence most quickly.
00:10:10.000So domestic abuse rampant in lesbian households, non-existent in gay households.
00:10:57.000I think this is as good a time as any because my neck is- and since Gerald came right out of the shoot- guys, leave a comment if you like seeing Gerald when he- he came right out of the shoot with Lying Whore, which is very rare for Gerald.
00:13:01.000This is not him, but it's really funny.
00:13:03.000Hey, I just realized, hold on a second, we handed this over to Gerald on this segment, and I don't know if Gerald has the self-awareness to realize that you don't actually say the n-word that was tweeted.
00:13:55.000Ah, I can't say that because that's going to be code word for racist stuff and later on they're going to come back at me and use this episode against me.
00:14:01.000This is probably... This isn't going to go well.
00:16:32.000I don't know if that's a picture from their actual ad.
00:16:35.000I don't know if they screened it, but obviously this was something that was, it was covered in Europe.
00:16:38.000So we were looking for, if anyone has it, you can send it in the chat if there's, you know, some kind of a leaked version.
00:16:44.000Right, so the model using the Series X Hybrid Trimmer has big ol' mastectomy scars, as you can obviously see there, and well, they're actually using the same technique to mark... Yeah, they have this just because they have now, they've been using the same, so this is now for men's products.
00:18:12.000No, I was going to say that, you know, Braun should probably have a waxer or a plucker for when that person decides that transitioning was a bad idea and wants to detransition.
00:20:12.000Everyone knows that it's controversial.
00:20:14.000I mean, if Abe Lincoln is controversial to the left, George Washington.
00:20:17.000And here's the problem too, a lot of people don't know the history.
00:20:19.000Remember that black and white and gray issues, which if they're on YouTube you'd have to go to, we'll be uploading it on YouTube I guess at some point.
00:20:30.000And she, and I mean that because everything was a very Very wealthy privileged suburban experience and she said that you know George Washington Thomas Jefferson were out there And they were like she thought that they fought for the Confederacy, basically And she didn't realize how anti-slavery a lot of these people were and so they apply our current lens to you know at that point that you're talking about the 1700s
00:20:51.000I have no idea why people don't know his, especially people in power in New York City.
00:20:54.000It's like you're pandering to an audience that doesn't want what you're selling.
00:21:06.000But the council committee is actually weighing, removing statues that depict a person who owned enslaved persons or directly benefited economically from slavery.
00:21:15.000Or who participated in systemic crimes against indigenous peoples or other crimes against humanity.
00:21:20.000Are you guys just screwing Gerald today and not including the overlays?
00:21:22.000I mean, there was no overlay for this one.
00:21:38.000Otherwise they'll think it's your words.
00:21:39.000By the way, I think the same person who wrote this actually works for YouTube because they basically said anything, anything that we deem necessary, we're going to do this for.
00:21:48.000And by the way, just so you know, if they don't remove the statue, they're actually going to put an explanatory plaque there just to make sure you know how evil of a person that this was to tell the story about the person's misdeeds.
00:21:59.000It's like the scarlet letter will be placed on the statue.
00:22:02.000Yeah, this is called chronological snobbery.
00:22:49.000So you're the one that brought this up and brought this to our attention.
00:22:52.000George Washington He freed slaves upon his death.
00:22:55.000That was one thing that you already mentioned, but also there's a there's a quote from him about what he actually thinks about slavery, right?
00:23:05.000I never mean to possess another slave by purchase, it being among my first wishes to see some plan adopted by which slavery in this country may be abolished.
00:23:15.000Right, so George Washington, not a perfect man, right?
00:23:17.000Absolutely not a perfect man, but he had an idea that The country at some point would adopt a policy and a law that would actually end the practice of slavery.
00:23:54.000Do you need, like, you know, gentrification or something like that?
00:23:57.000Go into a white area and take it over?
00:23:59.000The worry was most of the country probably didn't agree with that, or he didn't know if there would be a place off the plantation where you walk in and go, I'm free!
00:24:08.000And the other guy goes, not on this plantation.
00:24:20.000You can just see them setting up like, come visit the Knott Plantation today.
00:24:26.000No, look, this is the thing, you have to take into context, and you guys can comment if you knew this about a lot of the Founding Fathers.
00:24:31.000In other words, it's the chicken or the egg, only you combine it with a lie.
00:24:34.000It's the, hey, hold on a second, we had this Declaration of Independence, we had this Constitution that all men created equal, but not with black people.
00:24:41.000Well, no, actually, if you look at the framers, they were putting that in there saying all men created equal because that was the spark.
00:24:48.000They were deliberately putting that in there so that they could Ensure that slavery would eventually be abolished.
00:24:52.000Now, not everybody, but certainly people like George Washington, certainly people, if you look at folks like Jefferson, or if you look at people like Adams, and by the way, just to be clear, you can find racist quotes from Abraham Lincoln.
00:25:04.000This is the guy who signed the Emancipation Proclamation.
00:25:06.000He also, by your current standards, probably was a little bit ignorant.
00:25:09.000You probably find some quotes from George Washington saying, we have to do away with slavery, and probably some negative stereotypes too, you know, where he's like, I don't know, he says like, you know, they smell like chicken or something like that, you know, probably say something like, you're like, That's racist.
00:25:19.000You're like, yeah, you also wanted to free the slaves during an era where that was the trade.
00:25:26.000Imagine you are trying to upend, whatever it is, depending where you are, a fifth, a quarter of the economy, right?
00:25:32.000And you know that not everyone is going to be on board with it.
00:25:34.000And you just left a country where, of course, they engaged in slavery and they were purchasing slaves from an entire continent that still practices slavery.
00:25:40.000Yeah, no, it's one of those things, it's impossible to go back and to put yourself in that position and actually see the complexity of actually doing it because you have to do it at the right time.
00:25:49.000It wouldn't have worked if he had tried to do it earlier.
00:25:50.000And by the way, when George, I'm sorry, when Abraham Lincoln did it, it cost him half the country.
00:27:50.000I think that, you know, Thomas Jefferson was one of the people that solved the political problem.
00:27:54.000You know, we have created the freest nation on the planet.
00:27:58.000And the very language and the arguments and the infrastructure that these people use To say we've got to tear the statue down or exercise their free speech or just the fact that we've got to be a more equal society.
00:28:11.000That just didn't come about through thin air.
00:28:15.000Those ideas had to be thought through and put down on paper.
00:28:51.000The United States is the King of the Hill.
00:28:52.000Hey, let me ask you this, because you say, oh, we took the Native Americans' land, even though in some cases, for example, like Manhattan, they didn't have the general concept.
00:29:32.000But if the United States didn't come over here, and by the way, didn't commit genocide, there are more people like Matt there for crying out loud with one sixteenth Iroquois, whatever it is, than ever before because the policy was a matter to, you know, to assimilate, to intermarry.
00:29:46.000If the United States, if George Washington, right, if it doesn't happen, we don't have the revolution, the pilgrims don't come, no Mayflower, no Santa Maria, none of that stuff, okay.
00:29:53.000Do you really think that someone else would have been the catalyst for, really you would have had England at that point, the greatest superpower, and over here?
00:30:01.000We've had tribal warfare, never-ending.
00:30:03.000How does slavery end across the globe?
00:30:25.000Yeah, they hadn't domesticated horses.
00:30:26.000They should be like, hey, how, what's up, I'm Dander, does someone have a Zyrtec?
00:30:35.000Alright New York, you got bigger problems to focus on, please do that.
00:30:38.000You know we're going to keep track of this story and if they end up actually taking down statues of George Washington or placing plaques, they are going to be made fun of the world over because people, whether you like America or not, people probably think of George Washington globally in a very positive light, right?
00:30:52.000So you're going to have a really tough case to make on this one.
00:31:09.000It's like some 8-D chess game where it's like, oh, if they talk about this plane being hijacked, essentially, and flown to Cuba because of software, then they won't be talking about other things.
00:31:18.000But Tuesday afternoon... Blink from 182 found a UFO!
00:32:12.000They only found her stretchy maternity suit.
00:32:17.000Well, look, just so you know, the military does, they have designations for when they screw up, and this is a Class A mishap, which is silly.
00:32:38.000The funny part here is they keep talking about this number, this $2.5 million plus in damages qualifies as a class A. Yeah, you're $97.5 million away from the actual number of damages.
00:32:49.000Thank you very much, media, for covering the most important point.
00:32:52.000Really, the class A mishap thing is because the plane was destroyed, you morons.
00:32:55.000Hey, chat thinks they know what happened to it.
00:33:34.000And this quote to me gets a little bit crazy.
00:33:36.000And look, we're just kind of telling you kind of what happened.
00:33:39.000I understand you've seen this in the media, but we're going to go into some of the conspiracy theories about what actually happened just to be able to dispel some of them for you that are kind of crazy, laugh at some of them, and then kind of scratch our head and go, wait a minute, is this one of those moments where we're going to look back and go, Alex Jones was right again on one of these?
00:33:55.000So there are a couple of these that actually make sense.
00:34:10.000With one of the most advanced pieces of technology on the planet that we'll get to later, by the way, when those things crash, typically countries scurry about to try to find them before the owners do.
00:34:19.000This guy ejected one mile north of, I believe, the Charlotte Airport, a main airport, not where he took off, not the field where he took off, I don't think, but a major commercial airport.
00:34:28.000And then, by the way, he actually Let the plane fly for 60 additional miles.
00:37:03.000They really have dug in their heels that they're convinced they know what's happened.
00:37:06.000And people are going for the craziest possible theories, but the worst part about this is that some of them seem possible and others don't.
00:40:41.000He's being metaphorical because Jewish space lasers, it's actually code for banks.
00:40:47.000Look, man, stop quoting Marjorie Taylor Greene.
00:40:50.000I mean, yeah, she's right about a lot of stuff, but still, this is where I draw the line.
00:40:55.000But I don't understand this one as well, guys, because, as I will repeat, the plane flew on for 60 additional miles, so maybe it's the worst directed energy weapon ever, or we have the most trigger-happy pilot ever to get out of the plane.
00:41:44.000Who cares about the rest of it, right?
00:41:45.000But people are talking about it being hacked.
00:41:48.000Look, I know these are some theories, and we'll get back to the hacking thing in just one second, because there are some problems with this jet.
00:44:24.000It's, you know, stealthy, but obviously has some problems that make pilots eject.
00:44:29.000But in 2018, there was a report that indicated that 53 of the, I'm sorry, the F-35 had 13 Category 1 deficiencies that made flying dangerous.
00:44:41.000It seems like Operation number one is to try and make flying as safe as possible because the enemy is going to try to make it dangerous for you, so you probably should have that one figured out.
00:44:50.000I don't know if, like, the wing randomly rips off.
00:44:52.000And this, by the way, does lend credence to, I hate to use the term, but the theory that it could have been hacked.
00:44:57.000Well, the next one even, it buttresses that even more.
00:45:00.000Here's the problem, it's filling in the blanks saying the Chinese hacked it and sent it to Cuba.
00:45:03.000There can be something that's true and you can have a question that's valid.
00:45:06.000The problem is when you start filling in all the blanks as though you know, and you peddle that as though that is fact.
00:45:13.000But I mean, if you were to get into a plane and they said, listen, good news is it's a hundred million dollars and it's an amazing piece of machinery.
00:45:20.000Bad news is there are 13 things wrong with the aircraft.
00:45:24.000That make it difficult to, um, what was it?
00:45:33.000One of the things is that it loses thrust on a hot day in landing, which, you know, if you're doing the vertical kind of landing thing and at the wrong point because it's a hot day you lose it, that's a problem.
00:45:41.000Also, the battery, when it's cold, can stop working.
00:45:46.000And planes, I don't know if you've known planes, they fly high.
00:46:08.000The Government Accountability Office released a report in October of 2018 showing that nearly every software-enabled weapon system tested between 2012 and 2017 can be hacked.
00:46:19.000Often by simple means like looking up default passwords online for commercially available software.
00:46:24.000Numerous parts of the F-35 program use this kind of software.
00:46:29.000ALIS, I don't know what that is, runs on Windows, for example.
00:49:26.000I'll go get the pallets of cash for you.
00:49:28.000But China actually, so an F-35 actually went down and China was dying to get their hands on it.
00:49:36.000Tonight, one of the most sophisticated pieces of military technology on the planet, now at the bottom of the South China Sea, and up for grabs.
00:49:44.000The race is on to get the appropriate kind of recovery gear.
00:49:50.000Both those countries are going to want to get a hold of this record.
00:49:53.000All right, look, so tell me, what do you think?
00:49:55.000Is the F-35 a savvy national security investment that ensures that we will have U.S.
00:50:01.000air superiority in whatever fight that we end up with in the future because of either a stupid administration or some idiot dictator that tries to take us to war?
00:50:09.000Or is it a trillion dollar boondoggle suckling at the taxpayer tip?
00:50:13.000But here's the thing, either way, Buy Lockheed stock.
00:51:10.000So look, our Friday show this week is actually going to be some behind the scenes of kind of the making of this show and some of the skits and some of the opens and stuff that you guys love that we get to do where people get painted gold, which is a lot of fun.
00:51:23.000So make sure you check that out on MugClub.
00:51:25.000Again, it's only going to be available for Mug Club, but here's a little bit of a taste of what you can expect.
00:54:32.000Over the weekend, the Ukrainian Defense Forces Trans spokesperson.
00:54:38.000This is the one of the most strange stories.
00:54:40.000By the way, the whole story on this is not just that this person exists because we've already addressed this person in August, but they actually went on a rant about Russian propagandists.
00:54:51.000Next week, the teeth of the Russian devils will gnash ever harder, and their rabid mouths will foam in uncontrollable frenzy as the world will see a fate of prevalent propaganda.
00:55:01.000I was gonna say, like, you know how hard it is to get a good wig in a war zone?
00:55:08.000Russia's war criminal propagandists will all be hunted down, and justice will be served as we in Ukraine are led on this mission by faith in God, liberty, and complete liberation.
00:55:19.000And it was apparent the only effort she put into looking like a woman was visiting Party City and asking for
00:55:49.000the Imagine in Ukraine, if you own a wig shop, business ain't a-boomin' right now.
00:55:55.000Well, I mean, people still need wigs when they're fighting battles and not trying to, you know, die.
00:56:00.000At least, I mean, because there are a lot of layers to this, some parts that are true, some parts that aren't true, but we can all agree it's a good thing that Draco Malfoy has found some new work.
00:56:15.000And by the way, people, they can comment if they want us to do a deep dive onto this disturbed individual.
00:56:22.000Because this person does exist, but some of the stories around this person aren't really true.
00:56:27.000It's getting crazier as we dive into this, right?
00:56:29.000So this person's cringey in the voice and the way that they are.
00:56:33.000It seems like they're doing propaganda, right?
00:56:35.000So this is a As an American citizen, is what we think, based on what they've claimed, and there's some people that have thought maybe they found out who this is, but trust me, this story is only going to get more crazy as we go.
00:56:46.000But look, again, if you are not on Mug Club, you don't get to see that part of it right now.
00:56:50.000I'm really sorry, but this is really interesting.
00:56:52.000So look, if you want us to do a deep dive, maybe we'll do a deep dive on one of the other shows, like you said, but this is the part.
00:56:57.000You know, I don't normally get to do stuff like this.
00:56:58.000Well, I know, but people need to know, you know, on Mug Club, not only do you get the Brian Cowan Show, But you're also going to get the Hodge Twin Show.
00:57:14.000And by the way, they're the ones who did a lot of work.
00:57:15.000The reason that that Pornhub exclusive got out and there's going to be likely legislative action taken, that's entirely because of you at Mug Club.
00:57:22.000You know what a lot of the nonprofit investigative journalism outfits out there can't do?
00:57:26.000They can't go after companies like Pornhub.
