Alex Jones and Joy Reid are joined by special guest JRLA to discuss Kanye West's new lawsuit against the government and the media. They also talk about a new super-Covid coming your way, and more!
00:03:06.000I keep wanting to say ye, but we'll be talking about Kanye West being sued for, you know, saying what is medically accurate regarding George Floyd.
00:03:15.000And hey, remember when they said we'd stop with Alex Jones?
00:03:24.000I've sort of changed a little bit on this.
00:03:26.000I used to always say, don't attribute to malice what you can attribute to ignorance.
00:03:29.000And in your day-to-day life, I absolutely believe that.
00:03:31.000But people in the media, specifically like Joy Reid, for example, not like Joy Reid, specifically Joy Reid, and you get out of the habit of saying like, or um.
00:03:42.000Joy Reid, everything that she has said about Florida and DeSantis, every single portion of her statement, one paragraph statement, Is wrong.
00:09:33.000He's sitting in his backyard, and at first I thought, Mozambique?
00:09:36.000Turns out it's not, saying that, you know, you, if you're white, like, this is just, this is the kind of racism that really is just, it's just plain, it's not reverse racism.
00:11:54.000So here's another example of, and this just happened, this happened 16 years ago I believe, but you know there's this myth going around, and I think it's important this will tie into what we talk about with Kanye and Joy Reid, because this really is sort of an episode About the dishonesty of media and how it's gone completely unchecked for a very long time.
00:12:10.000And I get that a lot of you, you watching right now, you might say, hey, the Democratic Party left me or I miss the time of Walter Cronkite and Dan Rather.
00:12:18.000Back when journalism, there never was journalism in this country.
00:12:22.000Just so you know, everyone has always had a bias.
00:12:24.000They just used to lie to you about it.
00:12:25.000So case in point here, the media has always been incompetent or blatantly dishonest.
00:12:31.000In this case, completely incompetent to a level that is hilarious.
00:12:47.00016 years ago today, let me set up this clip.
00:12:50.000The BBC, here's the thing, they interviewed a taxi driver, okay, but they actually sold him to the public as a tech expert and the taxi driver found this out live on air.
00:13:06.000Now that you understand Marley's debt to begin with, watch it unfold in real time.
00:13:11.000The most respected name in English news.
00:13:14.000Well Guy Cuny is the editor of the technology website News Wireless.
00:13:40.000With regards to the cost that's involved, do you think now more people will be downloading online?
00:13:49.000Actually, if you can go everywhere, you're going to see a lot of people downloading to the internet and their website, everything they want.
00:14:04.000they want to get on the easy way and so fast everything they're looking for
00:14:11.000technological expert music oh shit are we going to bring up how I was robbed
00:14:20.000yes I'm just here to take someone to the next building I was here to tell you about how I had Saudi passengers who had a pressure cooker with nails in it.
00:14:33.000Yeah, and it shows that you can just interview anybody and say they're someone.
00:16:03.000I don't think you really download websites, but- But yeah, I mean- You're just naming internet words like, uh, website, you can download, sometimes the H-O, the T-T, so I include the P. The porn is free!
00:16:45.000By the way, in other news, speaking of British, the Prime Minister, Liz Truss, after 40-something days resigned, Okay, so it's a live show, Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m.
00:17:34.000Just based on the way the show is going, I wasn't sure if we were all on the same page.
00:17:39.000The researchers at Boston University did the opposite of that and they developed a new strain of COVID in a lab.
00:17:49.000Why would researchers intentionally do this?
00:17:52.000You know, there's something about Omicron that it was less virulent, but more transmissible.
00:17:59.000We all knew this by this point, and we have multiple studies that show it's less virulent.
00:18:03.000So they wanted to see if it was the spike protein mutations that made it less virulent.
00:18:09.000By sticking the spike protein of COVID-19 Omicron onto the ancestral strain and then they found that whatever the ancestral strain had over here beyond the spike protein that was what was leading to virulence because this is a very deadly strain and it's very transmissible both.
00:18:28.000It has all the worst things going for it in terms of causing disease so I have to say I'm a little bit worried that this is created and I think, point proven, let's destroy this now.
00:18:39.000Are they just method acting as the mayor from every natural disaster film ever?
00:19:43.000Not to be clear, they claim that the news train has an 80% kill rate in a lab.
00:19:47.000That's different from what happens in the general population.
00:19:50.000The original strain of COVID had a 100% kill rate on the mice, just to be clear.
00:19:54.000So it's not necessarily more deadly, but you heard her say that it could be pretty deadly, more deadly than Omicron, more virulent, but we don't have a ton of information on this.
00:20:23.000So it doesn't really seem, though, like these people, when you think about it, what we've been through the last two years, it just doesn't seem like they've been even trying to learn their lesson.
00:20:30.000I think you've just been cancelled, Stephen.
00:20:32.000Genetic power is the greatest force on the planet, and you wield it around like a kid who just has found his dad's gun.
00:20:43.000Your scientists were so preoccupied with the question on if they could, they never stopped to ask if they should.
00:20:53.000If evolutionary history has taught us anything, it's, well, you know, life will not be contained.
00:22:34.000Why do we act as though they are beyond making mistakes like the rest of us when they're financially incentivized to do so?
00:22:40.000You know, you've bitched about clickbait.
00:22:41.000We all understand that clickbait, where people will If you don't know what that is, it's where people put in a title that's not very accurate.
00:22:46.000You click it, and now they've had your click.
00:22:48.000They've generated an ad dollar that's completely inaccurate.
00:22:50.000Well, what do you think happens when you encourage more and more, faster and more, so that you get another grant, that you get the public attention?
00:26:30.000But these are the statements that got Yeezy in hot water.
00:26:34.000The family of George Floyd is preparing to file a $250 million lawsuit against Kanye West.
00:26:41.000It comes after the rapper, who now legally goes by the name Ye, said in a podcast that Floyd died from a fentanyl overdose and not from suffocation after having a police officer's knee on his neck for more than nine minutes.
00:27:32.000Okay, so the suit claims that his comments are detrimental, quote, to George Floyd's daughter and as the sole beneficiary of his estate.
00:27:39.000That's why they're claiming these damages.
00:27:40.000This is after, again, all references available at LettersCredit.com, Kanye paid $2 million towards George Floyd's family for his daughter's tuition.
00:27:52.000You may not like what he said, you may not like how he said it, but this tells you where the guy's spirit is.
00:27:57.000Even though he disagrees with the media narrative, $2 million to the daughter at that point because his heart went out to her.
00:28:03.000When do we get to the point where we start judging people based on their actions more than their words?
00:28:07.000We can't, because we have to judge them on skin color, we have to judge them on gender, we have to judge them on political affiliation.
00:28:12.000You have to judge them based on not only their own gender but where they line up on the other countless slash 52 slash it just changed to 74 genders.
00:28:20.000Two million dollars to the family and by the way everything that he just said is accurate.
00:28:26.000Yeah, but everybody's going to try and silence him and not, you know, we didn't even know, you and I both didn't know that he had contributed any money to the family.
00:29:16.000This is to silence someone with a platform.
00:29:18.000You have a big enough platform, they will try and silence you.
00:29:20.000It's not about the kind of platform that you have right now.
00:29:22.000It's do you, A, either want to be able to have a platform, any platform, and B, do you understand that it's necessary for people on your side to have platforms?
00:29:32.000Let's go through George Floyd's autopsy report at the time of death, and we've done this a lot.
00:29:35.000We went through this topic ad nauseum as it was taking place, but okay.
00:29:39.000There were no life-threatening injuries that were identified, okay?
00:29:42.000There was no physical trauma to the neck.
00:30:53.000They didn't talk about this in the media.
00:30:54.000So, the lethal dose, or I think it's the mean dose of lethality for fentanyl in combination with other drugs, is only 7 nanograms per milliliter.
00:31:04.000Again, he was at 16.6 and 19 nanograms of meth.
00:31:09.000Which we know, by the way, meth, of course, is one of the worst drugs to combine with any of the drugs.
00:31:13.000By itself, it's a wonderful solo artist.
00:31:28.000I thought once the tempers kind of flared down a little bit on this we could go back and review the actual evidence of this case right and see like the information like this if you look at this in a vacuum and you don't have the social outcry that was going on during this trial and during that time you're like wow this guy left to his own devices in that car probably dies within hours right at the very least and even the coroner we'll talk about in a minute the coroner even said like yeah if you found him at his home absent any other trauma you're like That's one hell of a drug overdose.
00:33:04.000And just in case you've forgotten, remember the prosecutor from the Alex Jones trial said that this was not only to hurt Alex Jones, but to remove his platform and to act as a deterrent to anyone else speaking out.
00:33:51.000So I ask of you to take the bullhorn away from Alex Jones and take the first steps towards taking that bullhorn away from all the others who have it.
00:34:06.000All the others who believe they can profit off of fear and misinformation.
00:34:13.000Make them understand that they too will sit their ass in that chair right there and have to actually respond in a court of law for what they do if they choose to do the same thing that Alex Jones did.
00:34:29.000They weren't able to prove that Alex Jones profited off it.
00:35:32.000That George Floyd died because of the knee on his neck.
00:35:34.000I think it was bad practice from the police.
00:35:36.000I think they were trained improperly because that was a practice that was taught to the police department.
00:35:39.000But I will say that that 100%, okay, irrefutably, just a knee on the neck from a 165-pound man would not kill someone in that amount of time.
00:36:34.000The point is that this is probably more difficult for me than it is for a lot of you out there watching, but I also don't have four times the lethal dose of fentanyl in my system.
00:36:44.000And again, I'm just laying down because this is more comfortable.
00:37:27.000By the way, Alex Jones wasn't the first person to talk about that.
00:37:30.000Alex Jones wasn't calling for people to go after him.
00:37:33.000Kanye certainly is not the first person to say that George Floyd would have died from those drugs and that no, the knee wasn't on the neck like that.
00:37:40.000He's certainly not the first individual.
00:37:42.000The only reason I know that is because we watched the trial.
00:44:00.000I also remember the breasts in Catwoman even though she didn't show them because when I was watching the film I was just picturing her breasts.
00:44:18.000They just walk up to her like, hey, Mrs. Berry, you know, we've been doing some reshoots here, and this film doesn't seem like it's very good.
00:44:25.000Do you think you could show your breasts one step ahead of you?
00:45:41.000Classroom instruction by school personnel or third parties on sexual orientation or gender identity may not occur in kindergarten through grade three or in a manner that is not age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students in accordance with state standards.
00:45:52.000So, to oppose that, you must You must be maintaining the position.
00:45:58.000Your position is that it is appropriate for kindergarten through the third grade to teach them about sexual orientation and hypersexualized issues.
00:46:05.000That's the only way you can actually oppose this bill.
00:46:07.000It doesn't say that you can't be a teacher if you happen to be gay.
00:46:11.000Your students just don't need to know who you're plowing that day.
00:46:14.000It doesn't even say that you can't tell your co-workers about your spouse being gay as well, right?
00:47:20.000Makes it illegal for employers, including schools, by the way, to require training or promote ideas such as an individual's moral character or status as either privileged or oppressed based on race, color, sex, or national origin.
00:47:31.000So basically talking about the fact that you are not allowed to teach people that they are inherently discriminated against because of, insert whichever identity politics here.
00:47:59.000It's either equality of opportunity or equity, meaning ensured equal outcomes, which by its very definition has to be racist.
00:48:07.000We're going to do a Change My Mind on this.
00:48:08.000You know, there aren't a lot of women in the military.
00:48:11.000I think it's now enlisted forces have gone up to 13%.
00:48:14.000But here's what's fascinating about the military.
00:48:16.000About half would be minorities, Hispanic, black, in enlisted services, because it really is a meritocracy.
00:48:22.000It's about can you meet the requirements?
00:48:26.000That is one of the great ironies here.
00:48:27.000When you make something merit-based, you tend to actually see more diversity.
00:48:32.000So the bill just says you can't actually teach people that there's inherent racism without evidence, and it's illegal to discriminate against anyone based on race, class, sexual orientation, in order to try and artificially ensure equity.
00:49:15.000A law like this in Florida is very necessary so they don't have the kinds of problems that you have at Brown or at Harvard where they were refusing to enroll Asians in universities in order to achieve diversity, meaning Asians with better scores, meaning Asian students who are better qualified.
00:49:31.000To ensure equity of outcome in university.
00:49:35.000So, you don't need to talk about the white thing.
00:49:36.000You can talk about anyone who isn't the cause du jour.
00:49:39.000And by the way, remember, stop Asian hate.
00:49:42.000Sorry Asians, the Democrats have no use for you anymore.
00:49:44.000Hey, black Americans, maybe as we go into midterms, trans are more useful at that point, and they might silence black female voices, namely black women who compete in sports, for example, the track athletes in Connecticut.
00:49:56.000It can't be consistent, and so it has to self-destruct, but only, only if the information Can be delivered to you directly, and that's why they don't want the Alex Jones out there.
00:50:11.000How about the sitting president of the United States, Donald Trump, being removed from all of social media?
00:50:17.000That should tell you where they line up.
00:50:19.000If that isn't just something that is terrifying to you, that a sitting president while the Ayatollah still has a profile, I know it's repetitive, this is remedial at this point, but it's a big deal!
00:50:30.000Well, it should be repetitive when nothing's changed.
00:50:33.000I mean, it's been three years of nonsense.
00:50:51.000Carrie Lake, very likely to be the next governor of Arizona, okay?
00:50:54.000Carrie Lake was on this show and she was questioning some issues regarding a primary she won.
00:51:02.000Now, if she just wanted to win, right, if she was just looking to achieve political power, She would have kept her mouth shut.
00:51:10.000It was something she won, and she said, I want to know exactly how I won, I want to know by how many votes, and I want to make sure that my constituents, the voters, can trust this election.
00:52:32.000Book bans and requirements to ban more books in Florida, and that they require you actually instead use patriotic Christian education propaganda in public schools.
00:53:01.000The books in question that are not allowed in the education curriculum in Florida all feature Incredibly sexually explicit content, uh, by the way, things like, you know, masturbating until climax, things like underage gay sex, things like sexual assault, again, which- Stephen King novels?
00:54:02.000And here's the thing, this is not banning books from the public square and saying, well, this probably shouldn't be taught to kids.
00:54:07.000Let's contrast that with examples of books that the left has actively tried to ban, like To Kill a Mockingbird.
00:54:16.000By the way, if the anti-racist book, if the book that says, hey, hold on a second, we need to acknowledge that we have these prejudices, and it's wrong, and that just because a man is black does not mean that he forfeits his rights, what are you saying, he needed a white lawyer?
00:54:43.000And they had to make her name sound like a man's just to get it published?
00:54:46.000Then you have Boo Radley and the- I just- the point is, it was an anti-racist book!
00:54:50.000And now they're saying anti-racist books are racist!
00:54:52.000Yeah, well it was anti-racist written by a woman who probably couldn't have had it published if she didn't have a male-sounding name at the time.
00:54:58.000So they want to get rid of To Kill a Mockingbird, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.
00:55:26.000Versus you guys saying, to kill a mockingbird isn't anti-racist enough, and even though it's a huge part of American history, and it's a fantastically written piece of fiction, we're gonna ban that.
00:55:39.000One is actual censorship, and one is about age pre- I don't have a pre- It's the difference between a rating system with films, versus just banning all films.
00:55:49.000It's the difference between saying, like, a Christian evangelical said, well, we just don't think South Park should be on, you know, early because it's not age-appropriate.
00:55:56.000Which, by the way, Stone and Parker said, yeah, we agree, versus banning episodes because it features Muhammad, which Comedy Central did with South Park.
00:56:11.000When she says, you know, they want to push Christian propaganda instead.
00:56:14.000Florida's civics literacy Excellent initiative is what it's called.
00:56:19.000It's not Christian propaganda, just to be clear.
00:56:20.000It's an initiative that focuses on including at least some patriotic form of education, meaning that you can't only espouse revisionist history.
00:56:32.000If you go and watch that video where they taught their students that we created slavery, that we kidnapped people from the old world and turned them into slaves in the new world, ignoring the fact that 90-something percent, on the low end, 90 percent, on the likely end, 98 percent, were sold into slavery by Western North African slave traders to begin with.
00:56:49.000You just have to teach both sides of it, because if you actually learn human history, you will understand that, you know what, United States flawed, pretty decent place.
00:56:56.000So the initiative focuses on that kind of education.
00:57:00.000Resources will highlight patriotism based on the personal stories of diverse individuals who demonstrate civic minded qualities, including first person accounts of victims of other nations governing philosophies who can compare with those philosophies of the United States.
00:57:14.000I think that's probably the one that they hate the most because it's like, hey, socialism!
00:57:18.000Well, we're going to teach you about all of the socialist places in the world in existence over time and show you how they suck compared to the United States.
00:57:28.000Well, these people who, by the way, you have like Tom Morello out there who has the, that's what we have, the Che Guevara shirts, the Rage Against the Machine.
00:57:33.000You do realize Che Guevara killed gays and also hated blacks, right?
00:58:43.000She is literally describing the seventh level of hell where my son in three years could come home with one of those books as a five-year-old teaching him how to masturbate or gay anal sex or, I didn't even realize, sexual assault included in this book.
00:59:00.000If this was all about straight sex, if this was all about teaching kids... Hold on a second.
00:59:08.000I'm just saying it's redundant to say straight sex.
00:59:11.000Well, no, I'm saying like if this is... Thank you.
00:59:12.000You said gay anal sex and then straight sex.
00:59:15.000This is about a man and a woman having sex.
00:59:18.000I would still not want the book to be there for my five-year-old son.
00:59:22.000No, you don't want to read Fifty Shades of Grey to your son.
00:59:25.000No, I don't want to read Fifty Shades of Grey and I don't want my son to think that he grows up in a hellhole and I don't want my son to think that he's an oppressor that needs to get down on his knees and kiss people's feet that he has done nothing wrong to and would probably befriend on the playground and play ball with.
00:59:38.000That's what I want my son not to have to do and Joy reads describing all of that.
00:59:42.000Well, I think it's a double standard because who can forget when our substitute teacher rolled in the VHS television and showed us Showgirls.
00:59:58.000Joy Reid wants a more racist America than ever in its history.
01:00:00.000If you teach young white kids that they're evil for something over which they have no control... And by the way, have you ever looked at any social experiment conducted with children where you've given one One, versus the other, authority.
01:00:14.000They immediately wield it, and they're immediately abusive.
01:00:17.000What do you think is going to happen if you say, hold on a second, this is the hierarchy.
01:00:20.000You're black, therefore you've been oppressed, so you're going to get special privileges.
01:00:23.000You're white, so you need to be browbeaten, and you need to feel guilty.
01:00:25.000What kind of dynamic do you think is going to set up, and how do you think that young white boy is going to grow up?
01:00:32.000Who do you think he will grow up to be?
01:00:34.000You think there might be some resentment?
01:00:36.000For the same reason, rightfully so, that young black boys who grew up pre-civil rights era, who grew up in actual Jim Crow South, guess what?
01:00:47.000We see this in all these films, like, oh, you just end up perpetuating a cycle of violence, as they do it in front of your eyes, based on a lie.
01:00:55.000None of that upsets me as much as The Brownest Eye, where the boy masturbates furiously in his desk chair.
01:01:00.000I don't think my child should be reading that.
01:01:46.000Yes, and I might direct your attention for more resources to buttpimples.com.
01:01:52.000What do you mean they're not naked in Playboy anymore?
01:01:55.000Oh, that's why it went out of business.
01:01:58.000Let's go on to, I think this is the final claim from Joy Reid, don't know how she gets it all wrong, that of course, and this is the coup de grace that conservatives, Florida, they want to make it illegal for blacks to vote or something.
01:02:11.000And of course, a concerted effort to make it as hard as possible for anyone who might vote for the out of power party, the Democrats, hashtag black people, to vote or to have representative districts.
01:02:22.000Look, I'm not going to read the quote because you know where this is going.
01:02:25.000You can go check out the website for all the references.
01:03:17.000The Democratic Party thinks so little of you.
01:03:22.000I can't imagine being an adult and being able to rest my head on my pillow at night and feel good about myself if I believed what the Joy Reads of the World were telling me.
01:03:30.000Boy, talk about a way to shatter any hope.
01:03:33.000And you want to do that with children?
