Bombing Beirut, Back To Butler & Melania’s Mission | The Tim Dillon Show #491

- Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tim Dillon Show. We hope you are well out there. Donald Trump, our president is embroiled in a feud with many. of his closest supporters, and I think he should change the. subject. I am in the minority here, but here's, let me come out and defend Trump right now. Can I defend him? Let me defend him.

I don't care if he staged the. assassination, attempted Butler. I don't care. I don't care. And I think he should admit it. I think he should admit it. I should change the subject. Stop talking about Iran. Just admit you staged it in Butler. It was the heat of the campaign. People do crazy things in campaigns.

I think I'm speaking just for myself. I will not think less of you. If you admit to staging. and faking the assassination attempt in. Butler, Pennsylvania. I will be impressed by the level of coordination. Explain to us how you did it. Kind of like those David Copperfield behind the, and I know that David Copperfield had some Epstein Links.

folks, that's neither here nor there. I'm trying to explain the way a magician will show you. how they do their trick. I think Donald Trump should do a one hour special on Barry. Weiss's CBS news. This is a great idea with Barry, members. of the Mossad and Trump to discuss. how they fabricated. and staged the assassination attempt.

Now, of course, a real person died, and that's terrible. RAP. And they should say that in high stakes, things like this, stuff like that happens. Imagine a town hall. where Barry Weiss interviews Donald Trump. about staging the assassination attempt in. Butler, Pennsylvania. It would be an amazing,

because it, it's a fascinating topic. Whichever way you stand, however you come down on it, some people are gonna go, well, it was wrong that he did that. And some people like myself are gonna be more interested in. the how, how did you do it? It's, it's fascinating. Joe Kent, who's, you know, the, he resigned from the intelligence, national.

intelligence. I don't even know anymore what these things are called. Tulsi Gabbard is the head of it. Director of National Intelligence, the DNI, and Joe Kent was I guess her deputy director. and he resigned. And he is kind of alluded to the fact that maybe like, maybe the assassination was like not something that we, we don't know the full story. So maybe it was staged, maybe it was faked.

Maybe it was some kind of message to him. Although I don't understand that. because it, it almost, I mean, I don't get it, I don't get how close you would come, the ear, the top of the ear. But I think maybe it was staged. and that, and, and I think now is the time to just come out. and say, some people are gonna be upset by this. But we staged the assassination attempt in Butler.

to show people how important it is. and how important it was to vote for me. and how, how far I was willing to go for them. Sure. Some people will be upset if he admits it. I'm not one of them. I'm not one of them. I stand by Trump. If he comes out and says, I fake this, I stand by him.

I don't mind that. I don't mind the pageantry of that, the skill, the technique. I don't mind that it actually, it's a little endearing. that he'd be willing. because there's not no danger in a fake. assassination attempt. Right? Right. There's some danger if you do a stunt in a. movie, people die all the time.

Right? So there is still danger. And if he said, I staged it and we faked it, but they explained to me before we did it, Mr. He wasn't present yet, but they said, Donald, you could die. doing this stage assassination. We don't think it'll happen, but it is difficult. and we don't know what's gonna happen.

I think this would be fascinating for the country. and it would move us in the right direction, because this is what, let's take a look again, Butler, Pennsylvania, it's a little bit old. That chart that chart's a couple of months old. And if you wanna really see something that said, take a look at what happened. Now, a lot of people say that when he gets up here,

that the fact that they, that he gets up. and that it, they, they move very slowly. and he goes, wait, wait, wait. And he comes back and they do the photo op. A lot of people are saying, that's evidence. I'm not saying this by the way. People are saying it's ev like letting him up like. that when they don't know if there's another shooter. A lot of people are saying maybe it's a. staged assassination.

I'm saying, I don't care if it is. I think it was very well done. No dam mean truly, I'm saying I don't care. That is important for our country, whether it was real or fake. It is the moment where George W. Bush stood into the rubble. of nine 11, which they also might have done. And with the, with the bullhorn said, I hear you, people around the world hear you. And the people who brought these buildings down are gonna.

hear from all of us soon. These are important moments in our country, whether they are real or fake. Not every historic moment is going to be real. And if you think it is. or has to be, you have an overly simplistic understanding of history. It was important. that moment when he said, fight, fight, fight. It was important. And this look at, look at the people here.

Does it matter if it's real? Does it matter if it's real? Does it matter if it's real? It's so, it's so emotional. And it, to me, I don't, I think, do you think people would be angry if you just. said, we staged it? I mean, some people would. I think most people would. But here's the problem.

I I wouldn't, does. that make me crazy that I wouldn't? Does that make me? It does. Huh? Yeah. It makes me cr I I tell you right now, I'm not even kidding. I am not kidding. If he said we staged this whole thing, I would laugh. I would not be mad. I'm mad about Iran. I'm mad that we've gotten American servicemen. and I think just men. But I was, I always say men and women.

And if women got killed, I'm sorry. The fact that anyone is dying for this war, I am completely against that makes me angry. It makes me angry that we've done this. It makes me angry that we're still giving. Israel military aid. It makes me angry. But if he just came out. and said, by the way, we, we, we rehearsed that, we staged it, it was a production. I am personally not angry. I don't know what that says about me.

I laugh and I, you know what it is? I go do Donnie. It's a Donnie t thing. I go, Donnie t you got us again. You got us. And, and by the way, I'm not saying it was staged. Other people are that kind of work in the government. I'm just saying if it was staged, come out and say it. Sit down with Barry Weiss, friend of the show, Barry Weiss, who's doing a great job at CBS.

By the way, I don't know if you've heard of this. Tens of people are watching, and she's about to take a sledgehammer to 60 minutes, their most iconic news magazine. So Barry Weiss brings him on and, and talks him. and goes, Mr. President, this is Barry Weiss, welcome to CBS. Many people are angry that you admitted. to fabricating your own assassination on television, but you knew how high stakes this election was,

and you knew that if you didn't kill the ayatollah in. Iran, no one would. So can you tell us why it was so important. to stage your own assassination? And he would. And he would. And I think that would be a fascinating show. That would be fascinating. Israel, by the way, bombing Beirut a hundred times in. how long did they, how long was it?

Was it an hour? 10 minutes. 10 minutes? It, you know, I'm, and I don't wanna, guys, guys. I like don't wanna be, I don't always wanna be like down on Israel, but I gotta be honest, a hundred times in what, 10 minutes? Yeah. In a densely populated urban area. I'm really starting to get the feeling, and I'm just saying this, I'm starting to get the feeling. that this country, Israel is a little bit of a problem.

I'm starting to get this nagging feeling. that Israel doesn't really want this ceasefire. They don't want it to work. They don't want it to work. Take a look here. Explosions rock, Beirut, as Israel carries out its biggest attack.

Now, by the way, stop this for a minute. Israel claims in all of these buildings, there are terrorists doing terrorist things. like thinking, I don't know what that even means, but apparently there are terrorists everywhere. talking about attacking Israel. And Israel has to kill everyone. to make sure that none of these terrorists.

find a way to do it. So Israel just kind. of like wholesale blowing up apartment complexes. because within that apartment complex, there are, I guess, terrorists. This is what all these brilliant people keep telling us, all the advocates of the Israeli strategy here, that there are terrorists in this apartment complex. So we just gotta light it up. We just gotta blow it up.

And who's this absolute. bombshell on Sky News? A Lebanese rescue worker completely dismantles the. Israeli military narrative. He confirms the bomb area in Beirut was purely civilian. with zero Hezbollah presence. Israeli Israel, internationally targeted innocent children and the elderly. Here's the problem. When you embrace this total war that Israel seems. to be embracing their, their argument is, we're going.

to kill everyone. And then some of those people will be terrorists. That's, that's really their argument. Their argument is like, if we kill everyone, inevitably some of the people will be terrorists. or like, you know, whatever, take our word for it. But we have to kill everyone just to make sure.

Because anyone who's thinking about becoming a terrorist. or anyone who knows a terrorist. or who might grow up to be a terrorist, has. to be eliminated. So they've taken this strategy, which by the way, I've never even seen this. in like 41 years of my life. I've never seen the brutality of this type of warfare.

Now I'm sure it's existed, I'm not an idiot. But this idea that you would just go in. and bomb a hundred targets in 10 minutes. and a lot of the are civilians, and you are massacring people, women and children. I mean, the blowback that. Israel will get from this. and that the United States will get from funding, it is going to be insane.

You are creating terrorists all over the. world that are seeing this bloodshed, and it's going to radicalise them to commit. acts of terror. You can't indiscriminately kill. civilians. and not expect that people are going.

to be radicalised and driven to violence. And Israel doesn't want this cease fire to last with Iran. They don't. They want the Iranian regime. completely neutered. They want it to be a dysfunctional country. They want it to look like Gaza. They want it to at least be Syria, where you have either a puppet government, you have kind. of a dysfunctional country, they don't want.

an Iranian regime that is stronger. and more dedicated. to getting nuclear weapons than they were. But that's what they're gonna get. That's what they're gonna get. Because it's pretty clear to everybody who's honest. that we've lost. We, our objectives in this war have not been met. We, we simply are walking away and we should. But the only way to win is like a hundred thousand.

troops or a nuke. That's the only way to win. And there's people in the country that want a nuke used. And there's people that have argued for that at high levels, truly, that are saying, why don't you drop a nuke on Iran? And if we go. after the Iranian infrastructure, their energy infrastructure, they're gonna hit energy infrastructure in the Gulf, the price of oil's gonna skyrocket. We're gonna have a global energy crisis.

So we've lost, there's nowhere to go. It's checkmate. We, we, we can't do the things we think we can. We are, we are. We're tweeting, we're truth socialing, whatever. We're trying to win the war on social media. And we're not even doing that. because can you, do you have the Lego thing up? Can you get that Lego video? We're not even winning the shit talking war. We're not even winning that the shit talk.

You think America would win that? At least if we're gonna win one thing thing, we're getting bodied. by Iranian AI in the war of shit. Talk truly. How embarrassing We're the country that invented shit talk. and we're getting lit up. - Take a take a look. Orange Pig America first. Oops.

Oh boy. That was the slogan you stole. But baby's pulling strings and your vote is getting cold. We are not just fighting for Iran. Here it this clear. Your people reached out to us. Yeah, we got the diems here. If one nation's going to stand against the Abst Epstein. regimes fair, it's us to the last breath. We've been doing it for years. We're standing there for everyone. Your sister. How are we losing? Yes, we're getting bodied. with the Lego stuff.

People making them bleed, taking, waking up. to the losing unbelievable America first. Now you put pieces first. Unbelievable. Make Israel great again. Government running paedophiles. They voted you to die for Israel. They voted you to die for Israel. They lied to. - You. I mean, we're not even winning that, we're losing that.

I mean, it's unbelievable. God, if something's been off in the. bedroom, you're not the only one. A lot of guys wait longer than they need to take action.

Well at least the state of California is doing good. Gavin Newsom came out.

and touted some figures that show that. the state of California where I'm sitting right now. is the, is it the fourth largest economy in the world? 'cause we just beat Japan and India, but we didn't beat them by much by the way. And some of that has to do with, you know, the currency, strength of the dollar and things like that. But California is, right now, I believe the,

we have a $4 trillion gross domestic product. and it, it accounts for more than 14% of us output. And this outpaced major economies, and I believe we're number, we were number five, but now we are number four. We are number four in rank. California is number four in rank when it comes to.

GDP and growth. But everyone I know wants. to kill themself. because California also has. a terrible consumer confidence rating like the rest. of America, by the way, people feel. very insecure economically. But because California has five big tech companies.

and they're run by five guys who are all in some way, Satan, those companies account for a tonne. of the wealth being generated in California. It's a tech heavy state. And all of those companies we're talking about things like. Alphabet, Nvidia, OpenAI, all of these things.

This is a big part of why California is kicking ass. California's future growth will be intimately tied. to the fortunes of his tech industry. To get some idea of how tech driven California's economy has. become during the Newsom years, I looked at market capitalizations. of large publicly traded companies before he took office. Versus today at the end of 2018, about 60%. of California big public company market cap was from tech.

Today is about 80%. So it's gone up about 20%. And the increase in this ratio is driven. by the sharp increase in the value of a few companies. Nvidia, apple Alphabet, which is Google, Broadcom Meta, which is Facebook. All these companies are now worth more than a. trillion dollars. While back in 2018, none. of them was worth more than $750 billion. So all these tech companies are trillion dollar companies.

They account for a massive amount. of the GDP. By contrast, California's other signature industry movie. and television production, I shrunk. on location shoot days in LA plummeted 53% from late 2019. to late 2024. While soundstage occupancy fell from around 90%. to just 63%. Iconic studios slash staff prop houses shuttered.

and vendors went bankrupt. Entertainment can no longer be considered a tent pole. of the California economy. So by the way, this is the future. of the United States Tech is everything. It's everything these firms employ a relatively few. people to. If you compare it to like what General Motors employed. at the height of, of, you know, or, or, or Chrysler. or companies like that.

Tech companies, em employ very few people. relative to those companies. And they're shedding jobs because AI is doing a lot more. So a lot of the jobs. that would've been traditional tech jobs are going away. And these companies, Nvidia, alphabet, Google, you know, which is Alphabet, you know Apple meta, these companies are, so this is why Newsom every interview he's talks about,

we have more engineers, we're graduating more engineers, we have more doctors, we have more tech, we have more this, we have more that. But then you drive down the highway. and someone who's bleeding. is wandering across the highway. in some like altered mental state. And that's coming soon to a theatre near you. This is exactly what happens.

when the entire country. is the entire economic output of the country. Is a few tech companies worth a trillion dollars worth run. by different versions of Satan. Again, their word's, not mine, this is what happens. But the rest of Californias just left. till like figure it out. So you go, wow, this is the, because you say to yourself, wow,

what is the fourth largest economy in America look like? Like if I went to LA it's, I'm sorry, not not America, the fourth largest economy in the world. What would that look like if I went. to the fourth largest economy in the world? You are expecting something. You're going, wow, I I bet it's clean. I bet the people seem productive. I bet things run efficiently. The fourth largest economy in the world.

I bet it's safe because there's enough money. I bet the standard of living's pretty high. I bet they've taken care of the vulnerable members. of their society. I'm sure there's not rampant crime. It's the fourth largest economy in the world. And if you went to the flagship city of that, which is Los Angeles, you'd be like horrified.

You'd be absolutely horrified. You'd be going, what's going on? Why are there people sleeping on the street? Why are there people overdosing into a Whole Foods? Why are there people going face down into a Whole Foods. Caesar salad and dying? Why are there blue lit fentanyl addicts having seizures. at the bus stop? And you go, oh, because this economy's run. by five companies locked away in Northern California.

And that allows Gavin Newsom to go out. and go, whoa, hell, hey, nobody's more productive than us. Like this Nvidia, CEOI forget this guy's name. Jensen Huang. Huang Jensen, Huang Jensen. Huang urged people to move. to California despite the high taxes. Just a group of billionaires left the state in recent months. under the threat of a new wealth tax. I say to everybody, Jensen says, move to California.

Don't leave. It's the highest taxes in the. world, but it's okay. Now, Wang Jensen Wang is the world's 10th richest person. And he said, the weather is great. During an event at Stanford on Thursday, he goes. to, weather is great. So this is who California is, now four the 10th richest per. by the way, it may even work if you're like the 30th. richest person in the world. You might love it. It's,

it's totally fine if you're not even in the top 20. You could be like the 35th richest person in the. world and get along fine here. But you might wonder if you're in the fourth. most productive economy in the whole world, why people are dying in front of you. That might, that might cross your mind. You know, like you can, we can, all people can argue about the reasons why,

but everybody knows it's happening. People in the far right, far left, checked out, centre, whatever, everybody can see that it's happening in the, in the fourth most productive economy in the country. Everybody says, well that's interesting. And then, by the way, just talk to anyone in California, talk to 'em and ask 'em how things are going. That's like a, a very non-scientific poll. Just be like, what's up guys? How you, how you feeling?

Because nobody feels great. except the this guy who likes the weather. Who's the 10th richest person in the world? Go speak to anyone in LA. I'm not talking about like Paris Hilton. Go find a person in Los Angeles. and ask them how they're doing. Waiter waitress, somebody who works at a gym, somebody who used to be a cameraman, somebody who used. to work in set design.

Find any of those people. See how they're doing. How are they doing? How do they feel? Do they feel like they're the fourth. most productive economy in the world? Does it feel like that? No, because it's all balanced on these five companies. And all of those companies are trying. to take the jobs of everybody else. So by the way, it's still gonna be, California will still be.

the fourth largest economy in the world when everyone's. outta work and it's a full on zombie apocalypse. and hoards of people are running. around on some new designer drug trying to eat each other. It will still be, in fact at. that point it might be the third largest. economy in the world. California might go up. 'cause they might have, they might have just said, fuck it, these companies are making more money. We fired everybody.

And the aeroplanes won't be able to land. because hoards of zombies will be running around LAX. and they'll have to mow them down. They'll have to mow the zombies down on the runway at LAX. They'll go, ladies and gentlemen, we're having a slight delay here. We're gonna have to circle the airport at LAX. We do have an incident on one of the runways, the runway. that we were cleared to land at. So we're just gonna circle the airport. This is very routine, don't worry about it. And then what will happen is people will come out with guns. and then shoot the hoards of zombies on runway three L.

so that your plane can land. and there will be bodies of zombies. that they light on fire and you'll see them. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Los Angeles. Sorry about the delay there, but we still got you in about 10 minutes ahead of schedule. We have, of course, as you can see, an incident. that we're still responding to, because you gotta remember, they're gonna be burning the. bodies of the zombies at LAX. They'll be burning the bodies.

of the zombies when your flight lands. And at that point, California will be the third. largest economy. It'll have gone up one. because they'll have eliminated some of the overhead, all the pesky overhead. They'll, they will have eliminated it. so they don't need the people anymore. So they'll go, there'll be 17 people at. that point living in the Bay Area. and they'll all have a trillion dollars. There'll be 17 people living in the Bay Area, and they'll all have a trillion dollars. and they'll have houses with security and, and.

and clock towers with guys with guns. And then everybody else is gonna be running. around like fucking, you know, fucking. the, what's the zombie one? The big one? That was the popular one. The, the, the what, what was it? 28. - Years later? - No, the TV show. - Oh, walking Dead. - Yeah. It's gonna be like the Walking Dead. And then 17 people and they're gonna come out. and the gov, the governor, whoever it is at. that point will come out and go, we're the third.

We're very proud. to be the third largest economy in the world. And we graduate more engineers than ever. And then it'll just be 17 people. that live in Northern California. They all have, at that point, they'll have $2 trillion companies. Their companies will be worth $2 trillion. because they'll, they'll have figured out a way. to completely replace, you know, they'll take humans out. of most things.

So it'll drive the profits up astronomically. Let's be honest, the cost of living isn't just high. It's exhausting. So if you've been leaning on credit cards. lately just to cover the basics, like groceries, gas, utility bills, you're essentially paying a survival tax. of 20% interest or more.

I have the midnight deluxe. Let me tell a short story about Helix Mattress. to make people understand. how comfortable Helix Mattress is. My friend and his wife fell on hard times. This happens to people. My friend lost his job and his wife already wasn't working. because she was raising their child.

They were evicted from their apartment. They were a and. because their families had. sadly died in nine 11. Both of their families had died in nine 11. And that's how they met on the first date. He said, my family died in nine 11. She said, my family died in nine 11 and they fell in love. and had a child and they moved in together.

and they got an apartment and he lost his job. and, and she wasn't working. She was taking care of the children. and they were evicted from their home. and they couldn't get any help from anyone. They wouldn't ask me. They were too proud. They moved a helix mattress. in the back of a strip mall by a, by a garb, by a large,

what do they call the large garbage things? A large garbage disposal, not a disposal, you know what I mean? Like a very large thing. where you'd put garbage like a trailer? No, that's a trailer is a, is a different thing. I mean like a, like a big dumpster. Like a large dump. Can you google large dumpster to, to see what I mean? Like a large dumpster I.

think hit image. Yeah, that's exactly what it is. Okay, so they moved their helix. mattress next to something that looked like that in, in the back of a strip mall in Long Island. where there was a pizzeria. and a nail salon and things like that. And they would go and, and and they, and they had this big tent.

and they would go into the pizzeria during the day. and the guy that ran the pizzeria would give them garlic. knots, Google a garlic knot and hit image. This is what they lived on. It's kind of tasty actually. They would get sick of it because that's all they would eat. But sometimes they would stuff the knots. with pepperoni or protein. So this is primarily what they're eating. They're eating garlic knots from the pizzeria. Sometimes the deli would give them stuff too. But this is their main staple of food. Now they're eating garlic knots. Remember their families were killed in nine 11,

so they can't go to their families. They're both only children. And their families died in nine 11. My friend's family worked in the towers. His mom and dad both worked at Canner Fitzgerald. They were both financial people. and my friend's wife, her mother. and father were on the plane from Logan. that flew into the building. So they can't get, they can't get any help from their families.

and their proud people so they don't reach out. So they're living in a tent in the mattress. in the back of a strip mall next. to the dumpster in Long Island. And they're eating garlic knots from the pizzeria. Okay? And, and they never told me this until I found out. And I said to my friend when I found out about this 'cause. 'cause I said, I'm sorry to hear about this.

And he said to me, I said, I would've helped you, you should have called me. And he said to me, that mattress is the most comfortable thing. I have ever owned. And he goes, I sleep on it with my family. and we smell like garlic. 'cause we just eat garlic nuts all day. We have no money. And the pizzeria comes.

and gives little Mexican kid, gives him garlic knots in the tent. And he goes, when I sleep on that, he goes, I feel like I'm the luckiest man in the world, even though both my parents died in nine 11 and I was fired. and evicted from my home and I'm technically homeless. and I live by a dumpster behind a pizzeria in Long Island. He goes, but still the midnight deluxe helix mattress. is the most comfortable mattress in the world.

He goes, he goes. And I said, I mean it's amazing you're going. through such horrible time. He goes, Tim, the happy. with Helix Guarantee offers a risk-free. customer first experience designed. to ensure you're completely. satisfied with your new mattress. I said, but you're homeless. And he said, it's the most award-winning mattress brand. And I grabbed him, I started shaking him. I said, are you okay? What's wrong with you? You are living in a tent with your family.

It's not hygienic, it's crazy. And he said, Tim, if you go. to helix.com/tim d. for the spring savings event, you get 20% off Sitewide. And I go, I should call the police to take the child. The child should go into protective custody. He said, April 1st through the 16th, 20% sitewide.

for the spring savings event. I said, it's not right that your child is not in school. It's going to affect his development. And then he goes, what do you learn in school anyway. with all this AI bullshit? And I'm like, well, fair point, but it's still crazy that your child is homeless. and you don't care. And he goes, I care, but there's nothing I can do about it except tell people. to go to helix sleep.com/tim d so that if this happens. to them, at least they have the most comfortable mattress.

They get 20% off. Sitewide helix sleep.com/tim d So my. friend, he's still homeless with his wife. and they are hap he goes, I've never been happier. And he goes, sometimes people give us money, you know, now it's our friend group kind of knows about it. So some people will stop by and give them money and food. and they're all really fat now. They got really fat. They used to be in shape,

but they're really fat. because they just eat pizza all day in the tent. and garlic knots and, and deli sandwiches. It's disgusting. But he said he is never been happier. And he is very big proponent of the war with Iran. helix.com/tim d Let's take a look here. because it's too depressing. Let's look here though. Let's cheer ourselves up. The great Melania Trump friend of the show having a.

impromptu press conference basically saying, Hey, I I didn't really know Jeffrey Epstein. Stop bothering me. Now no one really knows why Melania did this. She's suing Hunter Biden for a billion dollars. 'cause he said that Epstein introduced her. And Trump, I believe she's in a lawsuit. with the writer Michael Wolf. I don't know if that was settled or not, but Melania calls this like impromptu press conference. And she's basically like, listen, I don't, I didn't.

- Know Jeffrey Epstein. I knew Gilan very casually. And I, I never go to the island with Donald. and I never go there. I do not have sex with the children. I do not rape the children. I do not eat the children. I am not cannibal, I do not eat the children. People say to me, you go to island and you are cannibal. I am not cannibal.

I do not sacrifice the children and I do not. - Eat the children. So here's the first lady. of the United States reminding everyone, she does not eat the children. She does not sacrifice the children. to ball and she does not eat them. Now, by the way, I appreciate this type of. transparency because we don't get it all the time. So here again, first lady saying she does not sacrifice the. children to ball and does not eat the Melania Trump.

- Good afternoon. The lies linking me. with the disgraceful Jeffrey Epstein need to end today. - Correct? - The individuals lying about me. at devoid of ethical standards. That's right. Humility and respect. I do not object to their ignorance, but rather I reject their mean-spirited attempts.

to defame my reputation. I never been friends with Epstein. - I never been friends. Stop it for a minute. What a great, - What a great, I never been friends. with Epstein. I never been friends with Epstein. - What a great, I mean, what do you ever sit back. and just go, what timeline are we on? Like what portal have we gone through? Where have we landed?

Everyone keeps trying to get the aliens going. and no one cares because this is all more interesting. You know, no one cares. They keep trying to, they're like another scientist was killed. No one cares. No one cares. I talked about it a few episodes ago. It's just people don't resonate with that. because this is more interesting, the human drama here. This is the first lady of the United States. I never have been friends with Epstein. Go back to that.

I want to hear that again. And then let's hear. the rest of her speech. - I never been friends with Epstein, right? Donald and I were invited to the same parties. as Epstein from time to time. since overlapping in social circles is common. in New York City and Palm Beach. - Okay, stop it for a minute. Here's what she's telling you. We are rich. We are rich.

And here she has a point. Let's talk about her point. She's saying, I'm, I'm wealthy and I'm attractive. Many of you aren't either one of those things. So the parties you get invited to are like your sister's. fucking, you know, retirement party. where your fat sister has stopped teaching biology. at the high school. So there's a retirement party for your sister.

and they rent it out the back of an Italian restaurant. And you get invited to that. and you know who's not there, Epstein or anybody. And she's taste, she's explaining you like, this is the way the world works. Like you live in a place I've never heard of. And you go to your sister's retirement party. and the teachers get up. and they make a couple of jokes about your sister. as a teacher and how she was a real hard ass. And the kids were like, don't fuck. with Ms. Miller or whatever.

And that's your, those are the parties that you go to. But we live in Manhattan. I'm attractive, my husband's a billionaire. We go out in New York City. So it's common in New York City to bump into people. and you don't understand it because you're an animal. And she goes, I have a documentary about this called. Melania, where they talk about my life. and I fly in private planes. You go to an airport. and you eat a fucking Aunt Annie's principle and sit there. and you're told your flight was delayed.

But I get on a G five at Teterboro, which is an airport you've never heard of. And I fly and I land in Palm Beach. and I go to the country club. that my husband owns and I live there. And occasionally we bump into war criminals, human traffickers, you know, people. that are involved in overthrowing governments. This is what hap this is who we go to dinner with. You don't. So let's, let's,

let's give her the benefit. of the doubt here a little bit. I don't know her relationship with Epstein. I'm just saying her point. that she's living in an entirely different world than you. has to is true. That's true. And I like that. She doesn't shy away from that. She goes, this is the way it is. Everybody wants to know how it is, this is how it is. And she goes, I I'm not like you.

I don't need to jab myself with Ozempic. before I go to fucking Cece's Pizza Buffet. So I can only eat one slice. You monster. I live in Manhattan and Palm Beach with my husband, and we get invited to parties. Keep going. Melania Trump, - To be clear, - Right? - I never had a relationship with Epstein. or his accomplice Maxwell. My email or reply to Maxwell cannot be.

ized as anything more. than casual correspondence. My polite reply to her email doesn't amount. to anything more than a travel note. - Travel note. Did she say Tri trivial note, travel note or tribal note? - I think she meant trivial. - Can you go back again and hear? Is that tribal note, tri trivial travel, hold on.

- As an amount to anything more than a tribal note, - Right? Trivial. I think she meant, okay. - I am not Epstein's victim, right? Epstein did not introduce me to Donald Trump. I met my husband. by chance at the New York City party in 1998. This initial account.

with my husband is documented in a detail in my. book, Melania. The first time I crossed paths. with Epstein was in the year 2000. at an event Donald and I attended together. At the time I had never met Epstein. - It was a child auction. and they brought the children into the Plaza Hotel. and auctioned them to different businessmen. I was very uncomfortable.

And I told to Donald why they have the. children in the auction. And he said, you are from Eastern Europe. You know how these things work. But I was uncomfortable. So I went home. - No knowledge of his criminal undertakings. Numerous fake images. and statements about Epstein and me have been calculating. - Yeah, by the way. All right, we don't.

have to watch this whole thing. I I, here's my thing with Melania, I tend. to agree with her a little bit. I don't know what, I don't know why she's in a cross hairs here. When there's genuine people. that need should be like literally testifying. and you know, I i I don't know the extent. to which nobody's accusing Melania of Trump. of recruiting women or doing anything like that. So I just don't see why Melania Trump.

has to deal with this. And I kind of am, you know, I kind of, I kind. of sympathise a little bit with her and, and not. because I think she's some perfect person. and people are gonna jump on me for this. I just don't know. I think she got caught in the cross here. She seems to just want to be like a mom, like a rich mom to her kid.

That's what she seemed. And I know, I know some people that, that know her slightly. and they, they said she just really wants to be a, a, a mom to her child. So I don't think people need to dog pile her. I mean, is the film, is her film the greatest? Hey, you see it Make up your mind. But I don't think we need to be. jumping on Melania Trump for this. Before we started recording today, I checked a new thing called Market Mood. And it said the market is feeling unstable. And the top story driving. that mood was the war in Iran and the ceasefire.

Anthropic develops an AI tool that's too dangerous. to release to the public. So they had a meeting recently. where they're, they're worried about this new AI tool that is,

that Anthropic has come up with. 'cause what it can do is. it can identify weaknesses. in systems. So they had this meeting with Scott Bess. and Treasury Secretary Silicon Valley startup Anthropic has. restricted access to its latest AI system. The company said its clawed. Mythos preview model was so good. at finding critical security flaws in computer systems.

that it could reshape cybersecurity, wreaking havoc if it ended up in the wrong hands. The system has already discovered thousands. of security vulnerabilities, including flaws in the most popular web browsers. and operating systems. Anthropic said it was giving a group. of the world's top tech companies, including Amazon, apple, and Microsoft, access to the system. under an agreement called Project Glass Wing, so. that they would be able to fix any of the security flaws.

that it discovered. Hacking is seen as a major risk from advanced AI systems. because of the technology's proficiency in writing computer. code and its ability to automate attacks. Andros had mythos allowed people with no security training. to discover major flaws in software engineers in anthropic. with no formal security training. Have asked Mythos preview. to find remote code execution vulnerabilities overnight.

and have woken up to the following morning. to a complete working exploit. I was reading someone, a very smart economist, was talking about AI. and they were saying that one of the biggest issues is. that the AI arms race between the US and China. And if you could kind of get this up, I sent you a few excerpts from this that instead. of using AI as a way.

for the United States and China to cooperate. and try to figure out how best to implement this technology. to help people. and to safeguard. certain people's livelihoods. and certain, you know, security protocol, it has become an arms race. and it has become the, the,

the main competition, the main plane that we are competing. with China on, which is this AI race. And that's incredibly dangerous for the future of humanity. This is the person that I was reading. They were basically saying there's a choice that can be made. and the choice that can be made is that.

these two superpowers, the US. and China, can choose. to cooperate with. AI and try to figure out ways to prevent. some of the issues. It's a little further down here, but that nobody, nobody's done it yet, writing about artificial intelligence. In chapter six, Prasad writes with worry.

that AI quote robs my students of the clarity of thought. that comes from shaping inco hate ideas into words. and organising those words into a coherent narrative. And this was a book review of this book. We're gonna tell you what the book is in a second. And the reviewer was saying, that's why I don't fear ai. because I, because I'll never stop writing such. that my thinking will constantly be evolving. I mean sure, okay, about China. and the US.

and Ai Prasad crucially writes. that the two countries have sadly. and very unwisely turned ai quote into a forum. for competition rather than a platform for collaboration. that could benefit humanity as a whole. applied to ai. The way for the US. and China to quote win the AI war is for governments. to get outta the way so that talent can combine with talent.

What prevails now is anti-progress go up. I just wanna tell people what book this is. This is a book from an economist who may. or may not have passed away. Esis ADEs the Doom Loop. He comments on Bitcoin, he thinks it'll eventually crash. And he talks a little bit about artificial intelligence. You know, in, in chapter six, Pade exposes worry.

that Central Bank digital currencies could be used as a tool. for social policy such that they couldn't be used. to buy illicit items, porn, alcohol, other market goods. that are not approved by governments. Of course, the latter speaks. to why quote legal tender is near meaningless. He also talks about Bitcoin. and he says it's too volatile in value to serve. as a reliable means of payment. And he said that he believes. that Bitcoin eventually crashes.

I I found the AI stuff very interesting in terms. of like the fact that we're in, we're locked into this war now with China, with ai and someone's gotta win. And the person who wins will then have the AI. that they will sell to all the other countries. and they will have the systems. that all the other countries use.

and they will export that technology all over the world. So that's where the next great battle is going to be. It's, it's not gonna be, it's happening right now. And that's why you're seeing, you know, Scott Besson have these meetings with people about. this new anthropic. programme and they're, they're, they're out there talking. to bank CEOs to warn of cyber risks posed by.

anthropics latest AI models. So they're going around all these CEOs. and going, listen, let's not have this thing expose all. of the fraud that we, that you guys have been doing. We need, the last thing we need here. is this AI exposing how fake this is. We don't need that. That is not what we need.

This is built on a lot of bullshit. And the last thing we need is a programme identifying. how easily people's money can get stolen. and how easily their informa. and their information, which you people are already stealing. The last thing we need is a programme to identify that. So let's keep our eye on the. ball, please.

Let's keep our eye on the ball. The last thing we need is somehow. this Anthropic AI model figuring out. how Trump faked the Butler assassinate. Do we need that? Because Scott Besson sitting with a room full. of people going, do we need that? And he's gay, so he's probably being a little spicy. He's like, do we need that? The last thing we need is to fake this anthropic finding out. that President Trump faked his assassination.

We're gonna come forward with. that information when the time is right. But this is now governments have. to worry about getting outed by these AI models. They gotta worry about these big banks have. to worry about these AI models fucking them up. So this is how, how powerful. the AI tech overlords have become, that the products that are coming are going.

to be really disruptive to a lot. of the power centres in the country. Things like these big Wall Street banks. There was a time when the Wall Street banks ran everything. and the people that worked with them were called. masters of the universe. You know, I mean this was, this was, that was the top of the food chain. It was like the defence industry and Wall Street banks. And now tech is the top industry in the.

United States of America. They have the, they're, they're the most powerful. They suck up a tonne of money from the government. They get a tonne of taxpayer money. And the products that they are coming up with are a threat. genuinely to other power centres, including the government. Access to Mythos will be limited to about 40 tech companies,

including Microsoft and Google. Yeah, I mean, you can't just let this stuff run rampant. because you don't know what it'll find. You don't know what it's gonna find. You have no idea if you let that programme loose, that program's gonna figure stuff. out that you don't want figure out. 'cause AI's gonna start to figure stuff out. That's the other problem. AI's gonna start.

to figure out stuff that we don't want it to figure out. It's gonna be uncomfortable. It's gonna be, even though they're programming the inputs. and they're trying to keep that stuff from, like, people talk about if you put in, you know, Elon Musk deleted. that tweet like Trump's in the Epstein files, that's why they haven't come out yet. And then if you ask Rock about it, rock's like, I don't really know. And then like, people on X are showing you that. Like it takes rock a little bit to then admit that. Yeah, well, like, yeah, I guess that tweet was real.

Like that's quote, that's exactly. what we expect from those models. You're gonna become better at developing hacking tools, biological weapons, chemical weapons, novel weapons we can't even envision in one instance, detailed an anthropics testing mythos broke out. of a secure sandbox meant to restrict internet access. with a researcher only finding out quote, by receiving an unexpected email from the model while. eating a sandwich in a park. In another case, mythos found a flaw in open BSD operating.

system that has been hidden at plain sight for 27 years. So these programmes are, they are going. to figure out eventually not to scare anybody, not. to disturb anybody. They're gonna figure out eventually how to eliminate, 'cause their, their goal is to make things efficient. and there's nothing less efficient than the human person. The beauty of humanity, the, you know,

you know, deeply fragile nature of humans, their bodies, their minds, the human experience will be the, will be targeted by these programmes eventually. There's no way. that these programmes don't eventually figure out. that the most inefficient thing on this planet. and the thing that stands in the way. and the thing that regulates them is the human being.

So that's gonna have to go. That's why when they ask these guys like Peter Thiel, how do you feel about the human race existing? And he go and he go, oh, well I, you know, well, what do you mean? Because they, they know, by the way, they know. that human beings aren't gonna stand a chance. unless they merge. with this tech. Unless they augment themselves with this tech. It is coming sooner than you think they know.

They know that human beings don't stand a chance. unless they are willing to be improved. by this technology. And then maybe they'll have a shot. because it's 2026. and they're already having meetings. with these companies going, listen, this thing's gonna start developing weapons, novel weapons to get rid of us. It's just gonna do, it's just what it does.

And instead of working with China on this stuff. to figure out how to prevent this stuff, we're competing. with China, which is the worst idea. imaginable. When you're dealing with shit like this, it is a dick waving contest where nobody fucking wins. because you are, you are speeding up. and accelerating the process by which. this AI can become very dangerous very quickly.

And you're doing it without collaboration. You're doing it in secret. You know, you're doing it in this, in this militarised way. and it's a very bad idea. But this is coming, this is coming. The greatest threat to humanity will, will, will 1000%. Not gonna be, it's not gonna be, you know, I ran,

I know we all think it's Iran. Well, the greatest stretch of humanities I ran, what if I ran gets a nuke? Can you imagine saying that with a straight face. after reading this fucking article? What a retard you'd have. to be how's fucking stupid you'd have to be, what if I ran the, because they say it, these people say it. The worst thing in the world will be if I ran, got a nuke. Is it, is that the, the worst thing? Is that the most dangerous thing in the world? By the way, after reading this article quote, that's exactly.

what we expect from these models. They're gonna become better at developing hacking tools, biological weapons, chemical weapons, novel weapons we can't even envision. But what if I ran were to get a nuke? What if I ran Were to, what if they're enriching uranium to get a nuke? What if so it's so obvious to anyone. that the greatest threat to human life on planet earth is,

is is this technology and anyone. and the p and by the way, the people building it will admit. that they tell you that. they don't even hide that. because their game is, we need more money. They go, this thing's so dangerous if you don't give. us all of the money. I mean, you have no idea what could happen. You have to give us all of the money. This is how we got COVID. By the way.

They kept manipulating bat coronaviruses going, can you imagine if this were to get out better? Give us that money we need that research money. You better kick us another grant. Scaring the government into taking all. of the money is not new. This is what every agency in Washington does, whether it's the, the Defence Department, Homeland Security, CIA, health department, everybody, they all have big budgets.

and they have projects. and they have a big staff and they want money. And these, these guys. who are creating this technology are, are, and we're already using it. We're using it to, to identify targets in war. And that's not turned out too hot, but that's happening. We're using it to find illegal immigrants. We're using it domestically, by the way.

We are building a security infrastructure online using. this technology. AI is looking for keywords and posts. and 1000, it's already happening. This is all already happening. You're, you know, this is all already underway. And, and now it's accelerating. and it's getting to the point. where the treasury secretary is sitting down with the CEOs. of big banks going, listen, we gotta, we gotta watch out.

for this one, this one fun one. So it's gonna be like, it's gonna be like, like new diseases. When they talk about these new models. It's new versions of COVID except the new versions of COVID. Pretty much you're like, it does the same thing. It does the same thing. But these are new. variants, put it that way. They go, this variant's interesting. This is gonna identify all the flaws in all. of your systems quickly, very, very quickly.

And then they run around. and go, the biggest danger is Iran getting a nuke, or what about Turkey? We need to eliminate Turkey. and we need to get out of NATO and whatever. But it's, it's obvious to everyone. Now, I'm not a Luddite. I think some of this is inevitable. I'm not, I'm not throwing away my phone. I make a living on the internet. That being said, if you are not more concerned. with these companies building a digital police state. than you are about Iran, you are a fucking moron.

I just don't know what to tell you. If you are ignoring this shit and you're worried about Iran. or the sleeper cell. What about the sleeper cells? What if they wake up? What if the sleeper cells wake up? You know, they've been sleeping in America for 30 years, and as soon as someone wakes them up, it's gonna be carn. Like if, if that. where your mind goes when it comes to threats,

you're a, you're a moron. It's very obviously emanating from here. It's very obviously emanating from here. And if we don't figure out how to regulate. and, and supervise this, this 1000% is going. to lead to a futile society.

with lords who live in manners. We're gonna go back. to the Middle Ages and we're ready there. By the way, I'll drive you through Los Angeles, the fourth biggest economy in the world. And you can see futile lords living in. palatial estates. And on the side of the street, people with the black plague. And the black plague is fentanyl or heroin. or whatever it is, or drugs we haven't heard of.

And they're dying and they're laying there on the street. And similar to the, the way they would've in the Middle Ages. So we're just going back to that. We're just going back to that. And the, the religiosity will come back. and they'll talk about certain people. That's why they're all wrapping themselves in Christianity. That's why, because they know that in order. to sell this to the American people, they have to seem. non-threatening or they have to feel, you know, they have.

to seem like. that they can, you know, trace the acceptance. of this technology. and trace it to some deeper spiritual purpose. and liken it to some spiritual journey. that everyone's on together. and together is a real speculative word. 'cause trust me,

that everyone's not gonna be getting the chip. And I don't want the chip, but I'm saying the chip. that's going to detect the heart attack, that's going. to detect cancer, the chip that's going to. 'cause everyone, by the way, and somebody said this on Sam Harris's podcast recently, they're like, everyone can't live till 150 years old. That would create a hell of a lot of problems. So there is no plan for you to live till 150 years old. Most of you listening to this. But the people in those houses right now in Northern. California do wanna live forever or a very long time.

They wanna live a very, very long time. because spoiler alert, they don't really believe that. anything happens when you say bye-bye, or whatever they believe. We don't know, but they, they, they certainly are not in a rush to, to, to, to find out. So this is a, an interesting moment in human history.

I've been doing this show 10 years. I started it in, in a spare bedroom. on Avenue B, shout out to Louis J. Gomez. and Ralph Sutton Gas Digital Network. But I started 10 years ago, and over the last year, the AI slot has flow flowed into my algorithm at. an alarming pace.

You know, just we it's just here now. And, and, and, you know, I, I feel like this all, it began about a, about a year ago. Would you say that that's true? You started noticing that it was a little more than a year. - Yeah, - Yeah. Like maybe. - 18 months, - Maybe 18 months ago. And there's a lot of content on the phone now is just, it's, it's not verifiable you, I mean, you, you know, some. of it has the AI on it, some of it doesn't.

People fight about what it is or what it is. We're already losing complete control over. reality, whether we know it or not. You are already losing control over reality. So much to the point, well, I don't even care anymore. I go, is this missile strike real or not? I don't even care. I don't even care. But we're already losing our idea of. what reality even is, and it's happening pretty fucking quickly.

And the next thing we lose is what is a human being. that will be the next thing that we lose. What constitutes a. human being? What is the difference? And that's coming, it's not coming tomorrow, but that's gonna be a debate about what, you know, if you augment yourself, get the chip, the Neuralink,

whatever, what are you considered now? Are you considered a human being? Are you considered some other thing? And that's coming. And we're looking at the end. of humanity, truly. I mean, there's no, there's no other way to say it. I'm not being dramatic. And the the people will admit that. They will say, yeah, we we're not gonna be able to fucking,

we're not gonna be able to stave off programmes like this. unless we ourselves merge with the same technology. We're not gonna have a shot, we're not gonna have any shot. unless we are ready. So if Donald Trump sat down with Barry Weiss. and said, we used AI to do the whole thing. in Butler, Pennsylvania, Barry.

And she'd go, that's so fascinating. She goes, he goes, Barry, we used AI to do the whole thing. If you just admitted it. If you just said what amazing things we can do with ai, we staged that entire assassination. Using artificial intelligence. was amazing. I don't think the the American people would be angry. I, for one, would stand up.

and say, I'm proud of my president again. I'm sorry he killed those girls in that school. But I'm proud of my president again. He used AI to fake his own assassination attempt so. he could win the presidency. and pull out of NATO so that Israel could fight Turkey. And that would make me proud. And it should make you proud too. Goodnight.
