ew York Times poll said that Kamala Harris's support among Latino voters in Arizona is down 11% since last month. But then he added this. This is Jim Acosta on CNN. Quote, if you believe this New York Times poll. So they get a poll they don't like and then he adds, if you believe it. Wouldn't you have to add that for every poll? It seems like you should say that for every single poll if you believ…

And then we have the interesting connection that that Routh guy, the second attempted assassin, spent a bunch of time in Ukraine. It was pro-Ukraine and was trying to do everything to help Ukraine, and would imagine that taking out Trump would help Ukraine. So the question that Gaetz asks, which is a good question, is this guy couldn't possibly have been operating alone. And if we know there's a Ukrainian hit team, do we have everything we need to know? I mean, it's not confirmation, but if anyone was on a Ukrainian hit team, it would have been this guy. Because if you're a smart Ukrainian hit team, you don't use a Ukrainian to hit the president. If a Ukrainian pulled the trigger, things aren't going to go well for Ukraine. You all know that, right? And Ukraine would know that. So same with Iran. If there's an Iranian hit team, the last thing they want to do is be the Iranians that pull the trigger. That's not going to happen. So we've got two cases of people who got spun up rather quickly to be attempted assassins. I wouldn't be surprised if Crooks was influenced by Iran and Routh was influenced by Ukraine or some factors within Ukraine, not necessarily Zelensky, but can't rule it out. So there's that.
The National Pulse points out that the Washington Post is trying to remind us that it would be totally normal on Election Day if Trump is way ahead when you go to sleep, but then all those mail-in ballots get counted and then suddenly Biden comes from behind. So just like last election, we're being told that the normal, most credible thing in the world is for a last-minute dump of Biden votes. That feels exactly like we're being set up for a steal. In fact, I don't even have a second way to think about it now. You could imagine that if it were all legitimate, they'd still need to say it to make sure that you didn't think it was illegitimate. But man, we are at such a low-trust point in civilization that when somebody does something that's so obviously could have that other meaning, you know, maybe not the positive meaning, I just, I'm so biased toward, well, that looks like you're setting us up for a steal. I don't know it, but every part of my body feels like that's what happened. So that's not ideal.
Then in other news, Trump joked that he has a person, what he called a personality defect. He says, I don't like anybody that doesn't like me. Now he is so good at making news with little things that don't matter. Like almost any time he words things, it's just perfect writing. This is so, it's hard, so hard to look away because on one hand he didn't say anything because you and I have the same feeling, right? How many of you love the people who think you're not? Most of us mostly we like people who like us. I know I do. If somebody likes me, you'd have a hard time talking me into not liking you, that's for sure. But if you don't like me, you think I'm going to say, you know, this person doesn't like me but I think they're awesome? There are some situations in which I do that. There are some cases where people hate me but it's not returned because I think they hate me for reasons that, you know, they're just confused. If they actually knew real facts and still hated me, they're not my friend. But if they've been brainwashed by somebody, I take that into consideration. But anyway, I think he's just like the rest of us, but he says it in a more provocative way.
Meanwhile in Arizona there was this Democrat campaign office that somebody shot up. So just a few bullets. Nobody was there. And I think that whoever shot it could tell that nobody was there. Maybe it was at night or something. But isn't that convenient that just when the conversation is, hey, you Democrats keep saying things that get our president shot at, and they don't have a good answer for it because it doesn't seem equivalent in both directions. And then, oh, a mysterious person shoots at a Democrat office in Arizona. Huh. Well, certainly we can add that to our narrative to say that the rhetoric coming from the right is so bad that there's some right-wing lunatic, probably a white supremacist, who grabbed his gun, way too many guns as you've been told by the Democrats, went down to that office and tried to kill some Democrats. And weren't they lucky that none of them were in the office at that time? Does this feel like a real story to you or does it sound like it's a little too on the nose? As in it's the perfect story at the perfect time with no victims. That's a little convenient. It's a little bit too convenient. Now, I can't rule out the fact that there was just a crazy person with a gun who doesn't like Democrats, wasn't trying to hurt anybody but was just being a dick and thought, I'm going to put a couple of bullets through their building just to show him I hate him. No, I can see that. So I'm not saying it's not. I'm not saying it's impossible that some Republican thought, ain't nobody's home, I'm going to put a couple of bullets in their house. I'm not in favor of that, in case you couldn't tell. But it's just a little too close. It's just a little too perfectly timed, perfectly the narrative that the Democrats want. Sorry, I'm not going to buy it. I'm not going to rule out the possibility that was exactly what it looks like, some Republican wanted to cause some trouble, but I'm not going to buy it. You're going to have to give me a lot more to make me believe this story.
All right. Meanwhile, Putin is allegedly quoted saying that he accused Western elites of cannibalism, claiming that they have grown used to filling their bellies with human flesh and their pockets with money. He further warned that this is a cabal of vampires nearing its end. Now, cannibalism, I think he's gone too far, don't you? I mean, we don't actually have cannibalism. I mean, somebody blamed the Haitians, but you know, there's no evidence of anything like that. But are we getting closer to it? Let's go to the whiteboard and find out. Are there any forces in the United States that are moving us toward cannibalism? Let's say the price of groceries is high and people's ability to afford them is worse at the same time that people in general are getting shittier. And at least the Democrats don't care how many Republicans die, and probably is the same on the other side for some people. Now, I think we're probably about here. We're halfway to cannibalism. So if the food continues to get more expensive and your fellow humans continue to suck even more than they do now, you won't mind eating a few to save money on groceries. So I'm going to debunk Putin. We do not have people eating cannibal. We do not have the elite eating people in this country as far as I know. But we're heading that way. We're heading that way anyway.
Congress has this bipartisan plan they're promoting to figure out how we could quickly adjust if there's a mass attack on Congress and a bunch of our leaders get killed at the same time. Huh. What would make that so important lately? Hasn't that been something that would have been important from the moment the atomic bomb was invented? Why is it suddenly in the news and suddenly has bipartisan support? Well, maybe it's just this is when enough people wanted to do it, so it could be just natural. Maybe this is the time. But I love this comment by Liz Crokin on X who said on this story, if every member of Congress who is guilty of crimes related to pedophilia, sex trafficking, and or treason was charged, it would not only wipe out most of Congress, it would wipe out many of the government's employees. Maybe the mass casualty event they're preparing for is justice. Do you think it's possible that the Diddy situation goes so deep that it could take out like a quarter of Congress or something? I'm going to say no. I don't think that's a risk. But is there something that Congress knows that we don't? Could it be the swarms of drones or making it possible for somebody to take out big parts of Congress? Could there be some credible stories that maybe somebody has a weapon of mass destruction already in the country? What are we not being told?
All right. There's a plan, according to New Scientist, there's a plan to refreeze some of the Arctic ice. You know, the climate change people are concerned that the ice is melting and then the water will go up too high. And so they figured out a way. They're testing it. So they'll pump some seawater, and I guess they'll pump it back onto the ice and it will kind of quickly freeze, and then they'll build up the ice so that the ice melting is compensated by the amount of water they're putting back. And does that make sense? Scott is so naive. Let me just make a comment to those who are in the comments at the moment. You don't need to tell me that some of our leaders are puppets. If I don't mention it every time I mention them, it doesn't mean I'm not aware that there are many forces behind the leaders who are the ones in charge. So you don't need to be a and just say Scott is naive, he does not understand that they are puppets. No, I'm just not going to say it every time I mention their name, okay? If you're new to this, maybe this will be a surprise to you. But if you've been watching me for a while, there's nothing I say more often than we don't know who's making the decisions. So just stop being a dick for half a second. Try to add something to the world instead of being worthless like you are now. Thank you. At least come up with some real thing. Just not some he's naive. Scott, the one that bothers me the most is Scott needs to learn from me and take a half-day class in everything about chemical something. No, I don't. No, I don't. You're just being a dick. So just stop being a dick. If there's something you think I should know, put it in the comments. If you know something, you could do that. If you don't know anything, you can't put it in the comments, and you can just say, oh, Scott is so naive. He's so naive. He does not understand the things that I know because I know things. I read a story once.
All right. So anyway, there's a plan to refreeze the ice. Meanwhile, according to Real Climate Science, there's a record increase in ice in September. So one story is we've got to figure out how to make more ice. The other story is my God, there's a lot of ice being made in the first three weeks of September. Now, it has been going down, the amount of ice. So September is an outlier, so you can't make any judgments about one month. But Mexico, this will seem like an unrelated story, but watch me tie it all together. So Mexico is building an alternative to the Panama Canal. So it's going to be a land route across a thin part of Mexico so you could unload your boats onto, I guess, trains, and then the trains would take it to the other side. And if they can get

the economics right and build this thing, they can compete with the Panama Canal. Now you might say, but why not just use the Panama Canal? What's wrong with the Panama Canal? Well, there are a few problems with the Panama Canal at the moment. Number one, there are a lot of ships that want to go through, so you know, there's just congestion. Number two, the Panama Canal is not as efficient as it u…
