Automatic transcript. May contain errors.0:04Elon Musk, the world's richest man, sits around on Twitter and posts shit all the time. What's interesting about Elon Musk is when he's not being racist or anti-Semitic or homophobic, he goes after people in Trump's orbit. Remember the time he went after Trump and said the Epstein files will never be released because Trump's in them? The person that he is fixated on right now is Trump's longtime advisor, Steve Bannon. And how he is able, Elon Musk, I mean, how he is able to separate Steve Bannon's behavior and Trump's behavior and still be so pro-Trump, I will never understand. But he is at war with Steve Bannon and he is elevating the posts about how evil and corrupt this man is.
0:53So over the weekend, it was just drunk as fuck on Steve Bannon hating. So here we have Epstein was working with Steve Bannon on a global populist movement before his arrest. You can't make this up. The anti-elite crusader taking advice from the most elite pedophile in the world. And Elon Musk says, no kidding. And so what we see from these files is Steve Bannon was texting with Jeffrey Epstein the day he was arrested. So it's interesting to me that he's chosen Steve Bannon, but not Donald Trump. It doesn't surprise me at all, because Steve Bannon is savvy, very, very politically savvy. And he knows in order to keep the MAGA base together, he wants to continue Trump's lie about economic populism.
1:47And he wants to scapegoat billionaires. Steve Bannon has been very clear that the billionaires are the problem when he's on the war room. And during Trump 2.0, Bannon was sidelined and Musk was riding the oval. And so this is where this fissure started between these two. Bannon's watching from the outside. So he starts this anti-billionaire rhetoric. Now, Bannon doesn't mean it, but he knows it works super well with the base. So Bannon wants to boogeyman and scapegoat Musk. Conversely, Musk needs to provide a boogeyman to the people around Trump. And it's to say, oh, look, Bannon is the boogeyman.
2:29Take your eye off of Trump. Here's the new shiny object. So this makes perfect sense. There is no loyalty among thieves. This is a classic textbook case of two people who have very transactional intentions with this movement. Both want to erode civil liberties. Both want to dismantle democracy. One, Steve Bannon wants some whacked out Christian nationalist country, but he knows in order to get the base, in order to make it happen, he has to create a boogeyman. That boogeyman is the billionaires, which is why you have to keep an eye on the messaging from Marjorie Taylor Greene, from Tucker Carlson, because they're very close with Bannon.
3:07Musk knows he has to create a boogeyman. And that boogeyman is, look at Steve Bannon. Don't look at Donald Trump. Look at Steve Bannon. So these guys are enemies within the same group. And this brings me to my point all the time. Any notion that we all have that it's high fives and camaraderie in the Trump 2.0 White House, these are the most toxic, emotionally stunted people on the planet. I bet there's so much backstabbing and gossip and double playing and duplicitous behavior. None of these people are friends. Everybody's jockeying to curry favor, but Steve Bannon is looking more long-term with his anti-billionaire messaging.
3:50That's the impetus of all of this. Wow. I mean, that makes perfect sense. It's so interesting what you say about these people hate each other. Because I read so many books about Trump 1.0. Everybody's goal is to fluff up Donald Trump. And if they think they can fluff him more than the other guy, they will demean and downgrade each other. I mean, toxic is the perfect word for it. And my guess is Trump 2.0 is even fucking worse. Then we have Elon Musk, who in my estimation is absolutely evil. He is the pot calling the kettle black. He goes after Steve Bannon saying he is so evil. And this is a repost of Jeffrey Epstein wasn't socializing with Steve Bannon.
4:33DOJ and House Oversight Records show sustained coordination from 2017 to 2019. And then it's the pictures of Bannon and Epstein and text between the two. And here's the deal. I have no doubt Steve Bannon and Jeffrey Epstein were buddy-buddy, Just like I have no doubt that Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein were buddy, buddy. This is who these people are. Whether Steve Bannon was in the pedophile ring or just knew it was happening, he did fucking nothing about it. He only protected and did what was good for Steve Bannon. And Elon Musk is the exact same. So, I mean, it's just the pot calling the kettle black somewhat interests me a little bit in this regard.
5:15And then here's something that Elon Musk lies to himself more than any other person that I've ever seen, maybe Donald Trump. But I mean, he lies to himself. He has his AI bot lie to him. So he posts this about being and he wants to make sure everybody knows big differences between him and Steve Bannon. Best friends with Epstein, hundreds of texts with Epstein, money laundering, gifts, border wall, even a dot to rehab Epstein's image. So he's just constantly trying to point out the differences between himself and Steve Bannon. And as far as I can tell, there really are no differences except what you pointed out is they both want the same thing and they have to create the boogeyman.
5:59I mean, I think that's really enlightening. Well, and I think it's also interesting to note here that Steve Bannon is a really bad dude. All right. Elon Musk is a really bad dude. And so you have these two competing forces that don't like each other and boogeyman each other. But something interesting that I read is that Steve Bannon had this house, this rental house somewhere, and then somebody moved in and there was all this acid in the bathtub. Like the bathtub was completely rotted out. This is really, really heavily reported. And similarly, Jeffrey Epstein on the day that I think he was arrested or maybe the day before, he ordered like 55 ,000 pounds of acid to be delivered somewhere.
6:44And it's just these really strange, like what, in my opinion, and I'm just deducing here as an armchair investigator that's watched a lot of true crime, acid would be used to destroy evidence of some sort. And so that's an interesting take on this. I think that Bannon was currying favor with Epstein because Epstein had all the bodies. He knows where all the bodies are buried. He knows all the secrets. It's not that Bannon thinks that Trump is some great leader of our time. Bannon intuitively and instinctively understands that Trump is the Trojan horse, that he is the cult leader. So Bannon curried favor with Epstein so he could have the Coppermont as well.
7:27because these dudes have very, very nefarious plans for American democracy. They don't like it. It bothers them inherently that women are rising up. It bothers them that black people are trying to advance more and more towards equality. I mean, a very slow, slow journey to my black listeners, but this is what the impetus of all of this stuff is. Elon Musk is too big of a drug addict all the time to stay locked in and stay on focus and stay on the case. But this meltdown between these two has been going on for a really long time. Bannon was throwing Elon under the bus big time at the very beginning of Trump 2.0.
8:16I mean, the war room, he was just like a Southern Baptist preacher, hellfire damnation about Elon. And so now this This is what's going to happen. This to me is a preview of what's going to happen as more and more of the Epstein files come. All of the pedophiles and pedophile protectors and pedophile enablers are going to start throwing each other under the bus. This is just a mere preview of what's going to start happening. All of these people, as evidence comes out, are not going to be able to keep their secrets together because the evidence is overwhelming. And generally, everybody except for the people within the MAGA cult oppose child pedophilia.
8:56The Moses Mike Johnsons of the world, the Christy Gnomes of the world, the MAGA Christians of the world, they support pedophilia. And we can see that by their actions. They can tell us whatever they want to, but we can see with their actions that they support, protect, and hide pedophilia. So this is just a preview of, I think, the biggest mudslinging, shit slinging that's going to tear everything we thought about government down. And I almost think a lot of it needs to happen. And that's why I am a big advocate for a new Democratic Party that is not beholden to any corporations, not one billionaire that is a party truly of the people.
9:41All right. I have the biggest pet peeve on the planet. like that caked on makeup look. I'm not saying I don't need it, but gosh, I just simply don't like it.

Okay, and here we have Elon Musk. This is just exactly what he does.
11:06He's going to now pay the legal fees for victims for speaking truth. Elon Musk offers to pay legal fees for any Epstein victim sued for speaking the truth. My two thoughts on this are, number one, he wants to distract from the fact that he was begging and pleading to go to the wildest night of the party on Epstein Island. He doesn't want people to know that. And he also wants to catch out people that he doesn't like, people that he views as enemies, a.k.a. Steve Bannon. Well, we know Elon Musk doesn't pay the voters that he was going to pay a million dollars to. That never happened. But I look at this and I think, okay, let's say that these victims come forward with a unified message about the abuse they suffered and or how engaged Donald Trump was in Epstein's circle.
11:55Is he going to pay them or is he going to cherry pick which victims he chooses to help? And in my mind, there's no question he will further silence the victims that come forward against people that he likes and wants to prop up, aka Trump, and he'll just throw money at the people that want to bring down the same people that he wants to bring down. He's not going to do any of this shit. It's none of the above. This guy is a ketamine addict and a Twitter addict, just throws tweets out arbitrarily depending on how high or how low he is. He's not going to do any of this. He's not paying for any of that shit.
12:34This guy is a rage baiter who has to cheat. Elon Musk is a cheater. He has to cheat the algorithms. He has all these bots that boost his posts. He has to pay Trump$300 million to gain access to the United States government because he can't put his name on a ballot and run because he'd get his ass beat. He would lose. He would lose by double digits. He is full of shit. I don't take one thing he tweets. Seriously, nor will I entertain options as to what this deranged, demented person is going to do because the answer is none of the above. He doesn't know shit from Shinola. He is a corporate welfare queen immigrant.
13:18He is the immigrant that's taking your jobs, MAGA. And he and his dipshit friend, Peter Thiel, an immigrant homosexual MAGA, which I don't have a problem with immigrants and I don't have a problem with homosexuals. These two insane people have decided that you MAGA Americans can't have democracy anymore. You voted for two immigrants to come in, take your jobs via AI and tell you you can't have democracy. So I don't take anything. Elon Musk says online, this is the same guy who fights with his baby mamas over child support. This is not a serious person. Anything he tweets is unserious. Even Trump and his chief of staff have thrown him under the bus.
14:02He has been relegated to the sidelines. He spent a shit ton of money in Wisconsin. He lost his ass. He's already said he's going to come out and fund Republicans because he's scared of going to prison. And I have to say, our job is to make sure that people, politicians, Republican or Democrats that take corporate money that is also double dips and gives it to MAGA politicians, that candidate must be so toxic that they get their ass beat by double digits. And I just want to remind everybody, Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, none of these people. J.D. Vance can put their names on a ballot and win a general election.
14:42None of them. That's how unlikable these men are. I completely agree with that. All right, please like this video and subscribe to our channel and we'll be back with more news.
