zing the January 6 attack on the Capitol. Called the justice a disgrace. You know what would happen if a conservative had done what Toobin did and then had that opinion? They would call him a racist masturbator. Well if a conservative was Jeffrey Toobin he'd be called a racist masturbator. But because he's a Democrat he's described in this news article as a legal affairs journalist. A legal affair…

County case, the Fani Willis thing, so that's an election interference case. So there's a judge that just threw out six of the charges. So these are charges that are thrown out against Trump. So the first case was about just the protesters. Now I've changed to talk about Trump in the Fulton County. So it's a different case. But the judge threw out conspiracy to commit election fraud, criminal solicitation to commit election fraud, criminal attempt to commit election fraud, intentional interference with performance of election duties, conspiracy to commit false statements, conspiracy to commit violation of oath by a public officer. What's left? What isn't that the whole case? I thought the Fulton County one was about Trump's phone call in which he was asking them to find the votes. Didn't the judge just throw out every bit of that? I need to catch up on the story but to me it looks like everything that mattered just got thrown out. So I think you're going to have a case by election day where every one of the lawfare cases against Trump has been completely disgraced by the courts. Now that'll be fun.

I wonder if the Democrats will see what's happening. I think what they'll see is that rich people can get away with crime. Don't you think that's what the Democrats will say? Oh man if you're rich enough you can commit 91 crimes and get away with it. That's actually what probably Stephen King will be posting. 91 crimes and he got away with it. Our two-tier justice system. They're actually going to call it a two-tier justice system. You know that's coming. Oh you know that's coming. Yeah.

Anyway, so there's a publication called *The Conversation* and they did an article about spasmodic dysphonia. That's the voice problem that I had and also that RFK Jr. still has. And here's what they said. They said there's no cure for that voice condition. There's no cure for the voice condition that I had that made it impossible for me to do what I'm doing right now in front of you. Completely cured, right?

So imagine what it's like to be me and read an article that the very thing that I spent years getting cured is incurable. Now imagine that there are another I don't know 30 to 50,000 people like me and they're going on to Google and they're trying to find out how to solve this problem and they come across this article and it says well there's no cure but you know a lot of people use Botox. So what are you going to do? You're going to go to your doctor and you're going to say I hear there's only one thing that works. It's called a Botox shot through my neck into my vocal cords. Yeah.

So and then it said that it's a brain condition and that it might be caused by some kind of vaccination damage which would be ironic. Or it might be because of measles or something. So there's some theory about something that happened to you that would give it to you. None of those really hold up. Apparently it's just, I think it's just an overuse thing. You overuse a muscle. That's how I got it. I had just regular flu or something and I just tried to talk too hard through laryngitis and that's actually how you get it. You strain it too much.

Now if it's a brain problem and if it's caused by a vaccination which is the claim that I don't think is true, how could you solve it by rewiring the nerves in a person's neck? Because that's how it was solved for me. And the reason I got the surgery is because I talked to people personally who got the surgery and could talk perfectly. And I talked to other people, a number of them, who all had been cured the same way. So if it's a brain problem how do you cure it by rewiring the nerves in the neck? How does that work if it's a brain problem? It's like we don't know anything about this because we don't know why the surgery worked. And even the person who did the surgery, I asked him how does that work? He said he wasn't quite sure but it did. So I guess it'll be more of it.

But just think about this. The fact that something as important as fixing a medical problem that for anybody who has it they're completely suicidal. Do you know that by the way? The people who have this particular voice problem, the rate of them that become suicidal is really high. And I can tell you for sure you do become suicidal. I know I did because your quality of life is below the level it's worth living. Honestly it was below the level I found worthwhile. So I worked pretty hard to get a cure so I didn't have to do it the hard way.

All right. So I don't know what's happening with this Mayorkas impeachment process. I guess it made it to the Senate but I don't know if it's actively being processed in the Senate. Is the Senate actually taking it seriously or they just sort of officially read it in but it's not going to be handled? Does anybody know? Because what I would like to see is this process tells us who he is working for. In my opinion it's impossible to explain Mayorkas unless he's working for someone other than our government. Do you have that same impression? He looks like he's working for somebody else. Now I don't know that. I'm just saying that if I were to observe it from space, you know like an alien, and say all right what does the country want you to do? Secure the border. What is your job? Secure the border. What are you spending every day doing? Keeping the borders super unsecure. How do you explain that? How could you possibly explain that unless he's working for somebody else? Now I assume it's the cartels to me.

And by the way when he testifies he looks like he's under duress. Just my take on it. Now no proof of course. We can't, you know humans can't read minds. But he acts like somebody who's got a gun to his head and he has to say the things he's saying. He doesn't look like a true believer. He does not look like a true believer.

In the comments people are saying he's Jewish. Oh my God. Let me say this again. I'd like to put this challenge out to all my anti-Semitic viewers of which there are way too many. Find me any evidence for your conspiracy theory that the Jews are a secret conspiracy to run the world. Find me any evidence. The only thing you have is that people who are good at school have lots of good jobs. You're going to have to think past that. The people who are good in school have good jobs. That's all you know. That's all you know. If you know something else and you'd like me to know it, show it to me. Show me the email where they were colluding. Show me the whistleblower says I got to tell you it's a big old Jewish conspiracy. Show me anything. Anything. Any scrap of anything. And you believe you have it right and somehow I've never seen it but you have it? No. What you have is an old newspaper clipping that won't pass any fact check probably.

So anyway so I would appreciate if you just stop pointing out that important people who are good at school are also Jewish. I get it. By the way do you think I haven't noticed? Do you think I haven't noticed there's a tremendous number of successful Jewish people in America? Of course I have. Do you think I haven't noticed that they have an unusual influence on the system especially Israel-related things? Of course I have. Everybody has. You don't need to say it on every stream on every topic because we all know it and you're not advancing any argument unless you have something more than people who are good at school get good jobs. If you can't take it beyond that maybe check your behavior because you're not helping. You're not informing. You're not making a point. You're not doing anything. So do something. Do something. If you think it's important to make your case t

hen do something. Make the case. But don't just sit there going during the live stream because you think that makes a difference. Like nobody's noticed that Jewish people do well. Do you think there's somebody who hasn't noticed that you've got to bring our attention to it every time there's a topic? Every time anyway. Truth Social is going to introduce a streaming service which is interesting. S…
