now I have it. All right, you don't need to directly blackmail anybody if they know you have the goods or if they suspect it.

So there might be more than one blackmailer. There might be a blackmailer who has the stuff and there might be another blackmailer who's even smarter who is pretending to have it, you know, who might potentially have actually had it. So I think we're a blackmail-ocracy and any sense that we're a democracy is kind of childish at this point. It feels naive to the point of childish. We're clearly a blackmail-driven place.

Do you know why the border is not closed? There's no American reason. There is no American reason for the border to be the way it is. There's none. That's clearly an outcome of corruption. I don't know the details. It could be China trying to destroy the fabric of America. Could be the cartels make so much money they bribed the Congress to let them keep doing it or some combination. Some combination. But I'll tell you what it's not. It's not a bunch of Americans deciding what's good for America.

And I'm starting to think that the idea that the Democrats have a clever plan of replacing the white Christian voters with brown people from other countries that they can get to vote Democrat, I have a contrarian theory. Because the Republican standard, Republican conservative theory is that it's all a plot to increase the number of Democrat voters. I think they also want to do that and that's why, which state is it that's going to let them vote? The illegal migrants can vote without ID. Like that's actually, oh California, right? Arizona. It was actually Arizona, you're right. Arizona recently said that you could vote if you're illegal. You just vote. They just decide to ignore the Constitution or something.

So here's what I think. I don't think that's the main reason behind the open borders. There's something else driving that and there's something to destroy the country, not to make Democrats stronger. But while it's happening Democrats quite wisely, I assume, say well if they're going to come here anyway we might as well take advantage of it and let them vote because I think they'll vote for us. So I think that the whole replacement theory is a head fake. Meaning that in practice something like it is really happening. There will be more voters of a different type than are already here if things go the way they are. But I don't think that's what's starting it. I think that's just people taking advantage of a situation that was going to happen anyway.

So whatever is behind it we don't exactly know but you have to assume corruption in Congress because at the very least if somebody just disagrees politically they would make an argument for what they're doing. Nobody on the Democrat side is making an argument for it. They're literally saying it's not happening. All right, explain that. Nor a normal topic would be two people with an argument that they disagree. This isn't that. No this is not two people with some kind of philosophical disagreement. This is something that's coming from the outside. I don't know where. My guess is the cartels have bought Congress but it could be something else, right?

Yeah, so not replace but combine. So I think the replacement part's the add-on. I don't think that's the underlying cause.

All right, here's some fake news that you probably believed. Oh by the way, the other, the alternative to Tucker's theory that Nikki Haley is like the secret Democrat in Republican clothing that they're going to try to sneak in there as a hidden Democrat, that's plausible. I'm not sure I completely buy into that but it's plausible. The alternative theory is that the Democrats know Biden is shot but they also knew that having a president of low capability was working for the deep state or the people who wanted military things to happen, whatever. So they may say you know it would be the best thing is another low capability president that we can control. So that theory would say let's limp Biden over the finish line. We'll just get him there one way or the other and then he immediately retires for health reasons and Kamala takes over and she's easy to control because she is an idiot.

You know I'm very reluctant to say somebody who's risen to the highest levels of politics has any kind of mental deficiency because you know this seems deeply unlikely. But the more you listen to her the more you think no, the basic problem is you're not smart or even a little bit smart about important things. She might have a good memory, you know, so she can get through law school and stuff like that but she seems not smart. That seems to be the basic problem.

All right, imagine that it's today and you still believe that January 6 was an insurrection. At what point does that become embarrassing if ever? To imagine that trespassing was the way that a bunch of scraggly people who were there for the purpose of protecting the Republic against what they thought was a fraudulent election, that the real plan was to conquer the military of the United States and take power by trespassing or something. So I would ask you to just ask your Democrat friends who still believe that hoax to connect the dots and simply describe how those protesters were going to get control of the nuclear triad. Like what were the steps after the trespassing? Surrender? You know what was the military on the verge of surrendering to them? Just connect the dots. I'm not asking for, I'm not even disagreeing with you. You just tell me what you're thinking and then I'll tell you if I agree or not. But I haven't heard what you're thinking. Just tell me your actual opinion. Show me how you believed that trespassing and taking selfies and abusing electors were going to lead in a cause and effect, you know, A leads to B way to physical control of the country.

Do you know how you could have defeated that insurrection? You could put a fence around it and wait for them to starve. They didn't have weapons. There's no insurrection that would ever be easier to thwart than the people who didn't have food and they locked themselves in a building. So to imagine that you still thought there was something like an insurrection is embarrassing at this point. So I think you should treat it that way when it comes up as just mock it as the most ridiculous belief. Michael Shellenberger has a whole thread and post on this today that people still think it was an insurrection is basically stupid.

All right, here's some fake news. Do you believe that Joe Biden has inaccurately said in public a number of times, including recently, that his oldest son Beau died because of Iraq or in Iraq because of the war? How many think that Joe Biden is so dumb he thinks that Beau died in the Iraq War when the truth is that he died of a brain tumor well after the war, for what? Well after he left the war. All right, so here's the truth of that. That's fake news. So Biden said it again but there was a community note apparently. What Biden believes because he's spoken at greater length about it, he doesn't believe his son died in Iraq. He does not believe that he died of military action and has never said that. He says he died because of Iraq. Specifically he believes that Beau was too close to the burn pits or something, something that would have poisoned him, and that the exposure may have been the reason for his brain tumor that killed him well after he was out of the military. It was some kind of chemical, cobalt, I don't know what the details are.

Now do you think Joe Biden knows that's true? Do you? Or is it true? Have the medical professionals said yeah we're pretty sure that's what caused it? It's hard to prove but here's what is true. If that's true, if it's true then, see if I have this right, didn't Joe Biden support the Iraq War? Didn't he? And wasn't the Iraq War optional? So Joe Biden supported an optional war which in his own telling killed his own son. Is that fair? That he supported a war that in his own opinion killed his son.

Now what about the Ukraine war? Do you think that Hunter would be in the trouble that he's in legally if there was not a President Biden forging a war in Ukraine with Russia? I don't think Hunter would be in trouble. So Hunter is likely to end up in jail or dead, you know, if he does something because he doesn't want to go to jail, because of his father entering a second optional war. So you've got a father who may have in his own belief supported a war that killed his own son, an optional war, not a war of national defense, an optional war, and is supporting another optional war in a sense. You know optional is you have to stretch that definition a little bit but did he kill both of his sons? Is he in the process of killing both of his sons for unnecessary wars? Now kill or jail or mentally disable or ruin his life in some way.

Now I'm not saying that Hunter is innocent and should not have the consequences of justice but has anybody connected these dots before? That Joe Biden killed both of his sons with two optional wars. I haven't seen anybody say it but to me that's the most mind-blowing part of this whole story. That he's so lame that his own sons are dying because of his optional wars.

Do you know what Don Jr. is doing this weekend? Well I don't know but he's probably not defending himself against money laundering in Ukraine. I don't know for sure. Do you know what Baron Trump is doing this weekend? I don't know but he's not dying of a brain tumor because he went to an optional war in Iraq. That's not happening, right? There's a big difference between Trump and Biden. There's a really big difference. It's so big that it's almost, if it weren't full of tragedy, it would be humorously big. The difference between their performances. One got us into two wars that killed his own family and that didn't even slow him down. He's still in favor of it. And Trump is whatever is the opposite of that.

All right, MSNBC's Tiffany Cross, who I guess is no longer with MSNBC, one of her biggest complaints was that she got a show on MSNBC but that her bosses kept telling her she wasn't spending enough time trashing Trump. And she kept saying versions of, okay I mean that's an important story too but what about all these other stories? And I'm paraphrasing of course. But her bosses said yeah yeah yeah but you really got to bash Trump. Okay but not all the time. I mean I could do other stories too. And they were pretty much no no no there really are no other stories. We really need you to bash Trump.

So this is another one of those. It was exactly what it looked like because when you watch MSNBC you said to yourself this doesn't look like news. This looks like a bunch of people bashing Trump and that's all it is. There's like literally nothing else. And that's exactly what it was. The executives were trying to make the staff do nothing but, remember I tell you, you have to know the players. I already talked about that Reid Hoffman so I don't know what's true with Reid Hoffman but the concept I should have mentioned before is that if you only hear the news you don't know anything because the news doesn't tell you how the players are connected with the other players.

For example if the only thing you knew was that E. Jean Carroll was suing Trump you say oh this is like a personal thing and you know maybe there's something to it etc. But if you knew that the lawsuit was being funded by a Democrat who wants to get Trump you say to yourself oh that's not necessarily true then is it? I mean I don't know if it's true or not. I don't want to get sued for libel. I'm just saying that as soon as you put ugly money behind it all the credibility goes away. So if you don't know there's ugly money behind something you don't really have the full picture, do you? So there's that.

All right, there's a viral video of what's being called an angel mom whose daughter died from a fe
