In short

The episode argues that the July 2024 Butler, Pennsylvania shooting was suspicious and possibly staged, claiming law enforcement “secured roofs” inconsistently, a “staged photo” was allowed, and Trump allegedly profited by marketing the incident (portraits, memes, a “fight, fight, fight” meme coin). It highlights a widow’s claim that gunman Thomas Crooks “didn’t act alone” and “was working with somebody,” suggesting an “inside job” but leaving details unclear. The episode also claims Todd Blanche lied at a confirmation hearing about Epstein co-conspirators, alleges Trump and appointees are connected to Epstein files, and asserts Blanche won’t speak to survivors. It discusses DNI nominee Jay Clayton being “humiliated” for refusing to answer who won the 2020 election, and speculates about election interference after a “dry run.”

Notable examples

Ossoff’s grilling of Clayton; claims about Ghislaine Maxwell’s treatment; Netanyahu attending Lindsey Graham’s funeral.

0:04All right, what's going on with Trump and all of these alleged assassination attempts. I keep reading reporting that as it pertains to Butler, he's not interested and all investigations are shut down. And I think we all for the longest time have had some itch in the back of our brain that something just seemed incredibly off about all of that, that a person is up on top of a roof. We all know that law enforcement, the first thing they do is secure, you know, roofs to make sure there isn't an active shooter or anything up there. And the staged photo, how the Secret Service allowed for that to happen was really, really weird.

0:45And then after the staged photo, how much Trump has used it, marketed off of it, profited off of it, had a portrait made of it, hung in the White House, has a meme coin called fight, fight, fight. I mean, it's almost as though it were scripted. So you may remember during this alleged assassination attempt, that firefighter was shot and killed. And his wife is speaking out on the Butler shooting. And this is a bombshell. Let's play the clip. Belief that the gunman, Thomas Crooks, didn't act alone. I don't believe there was another shooter there, but I believe that he was working with somebody. I believe it was inside.

1:34It was an inside job inside the government somewhere. And this was a political? Oh yeah. Absolutely. Yep. Okay. So what we don't know here is when she says inside government, is she talking about that maybe somebody was trying to assassinate Trump and then Trump, this person took the straight bullet? Or is she suggesting that it was staged? I don't know. I don't know what she means, but if I'm her in her position and I hear the president say, yeah, at least she got a million dollars out of it. Remember how he was like, you know, she's probably pretty happy. She didn't have to live with that guy anymore.

2:18And she's got a million dollars, like a really bizarre thing to say for somebody who quote unquote took a bullet for the president. I just think this whole Butler thing has a little bit of legs to it. But we're not the only ones. Over on the other side of the internet, the right wing media ecosystem, they're really sounding the sirens about all of this. All of the people that have jumped off the Trump train, Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, etc. are all like, yeah, that seems weird. They're all kind of throwing Trump under the bus on this. Well, why wouldn't they be? Here's the thing. In the beginning, I was like, that seems pretty weird, but I didn't want to call it a conspiracy.

3:03But what I've learned over the last, you know, Trump being back in office is there is nothing, there's no lie too big. There is no moral conundrum too big. There is no life worthy other than that of the Fuhrer that they are willing to do anything to keep, get and keep this man in power. So that's my premise going in. And then you have Trump has failed and specifically, I believe squashed all the medical reporting about what happened to his ear and his ear. We're wearing maxi pads because of the blood. And then And you look at his hair today, I mean, his hands are falling apart. His ankles are about to burst out of his shoes.

3:43His ear's perfect. Looks great. No problem. And then you hear no evidence about Thomas Crooks, what he was thinking, why he did it, why he was there, family members, nothing. It is crickets. So to me, if you're talking about a conspiracy, look at where the transparency is. Look at where the cover up is. And I just don't think it's that big of a stretch to say Trump's lagging behind. He doesn't have the momentum. If there is one thing the American people love, it is rallying behind someone they believe has been, you know, attacked violently. And immediately it was the left. They're trying to kill him.

4:27All that shit. It's just crickets about this. I don't trust it. Yeah. And if you think about the reality as if this was staged, let's just go down that rabbit hole. Trump was facing prison. I mean, he was facing that he was going to go to prison. He was running out of money. He was lagging in the polls at this point. This was a complete game changer for him. And if he had insiders in the Secret Service, which we all know, and we've all seen the stats, that law enforcement leans towards Trump heavily. And we know that previous in history autocrats have staged assassination attempts to get public opinion to rally around them.

5:22It did just that. And then think about how diabolical if this were staged and that this man died. And then Trump, you know, because he doesn't death doesn't really mean anything to him. It's like, well, I mean, she got some money and she's probably pretty she's really actually better off. I can't remember what the exact quote was, but it was pretty alarming. And so it's just, I think it's something that is a pesky little subject that is going to keep coming up because I think all of us are not buying it. And then let's shift gears a little bit. Todd Blanche, at his confirmation hearing, he says he didn't identify any other men that Epstein trafficked to victims.

6:11Let's play this clip. Who, if anyone else, did Mr. Epstein traffic young women to? There's, from what we learned, from what we know, so when we know, I mean, what's in the FBI files and what's in the DOJ files, we did not identify evidence. And by we, I mean career prosecutors, not me. what career prosecutor you're referring to alex acosta that gave him the sweetheart deal that then got an appointment in trump 1.0 um he's lying that these they are lying to us about the epstein files they are liars they used it to exploit the electorate to get trump elected knowing full well that so many of these men even the oligarchs that bent the need first the most powerful and well-positioned among us to resist.

7:09Benthony first are in the Epstein files. So many people that Trump appointed to his cabinet are in the Epstein files. But most importantly, Trump himself is in it per Jamie Raskin over 1 million times. Here's the thing. Trump admitted in the Vanity Fair article way back when that he and Jeffrey were good buddies. And, you know, we saw the birthday Cardi sent, you know, we share common interests, all that kind of shit. But here's what's so damning about that. And at the end of the day, I think he'll be confirmed because I think these Republicans have no fucking spine and they're cowards. But the FBI came up and said, okay, we know we have four co-conspirators and we're going to redact those names, but then we're going to re-release.

7:56So this is just the most provable lie on the planet. And you know what else? He still hasn't talked to survivors. They can tell you who's in these files. They can tell you the men, but he doesn't want to, and he doesn't want to do it on purpose. And he sat there and lied about it yesterday in front of survivors, just like Pam Bondi. This is such an indictment about the fall of law and order, about how people in this party do not give a shit if little girls and little boys are sex trafficked and raped as long as they can stay in power. That's what this man did. He just put a big sign over his head that says, I don't give a fuck about pedophilia.

8:43What I care about, what I care about is sucking on Donald Trump's left butt cheek. And I think it's important to point out that he will not talk to survivors, but he did go very inappropriately speak to Ghislaine Maxwell, which was completely against all DOJ policy in the manner that he did it. And after he spoke to her, she was transferred to a cream puff, powder puff prison where she has a dog. And I believe he has a pardon waiting for her so that she keeps her mouth shut. And so this is an administration that protects sex traffickers, convicted ones. This is an administration that protects pedophiles.

9:26This is an administration that is an anti-family, anti-child, pro-pedophilia death cult. Every single nominee, every single Republican that votes along with this, from Susan Collins, all the way to little Moses Mike Grinder Johnson that want to lecture all of us about the country, about patriotism, about decency, about morals. They're all in on the fix. The fix is in on the Epstein files. And that man right there, Todd Blanche, fixed it. He fixed it so that Ghislaine wouldn't seem like a bird. All right. I know that shaving is just about the most exhausting thing that I do. I can't stand it. I'm always getting razor burn.

10:12I'm always cutting myself, ingrown hairs, etc. And that's why I have switched razors entirely to Flamingo.

Senator John Ossoff of Georgia is really doing some incredible work in confirmation hearings, and he humiliated Trump's nominee for DNI. Jay Clayton yesterday. Enjoy this clip.

11:52Public, but you refuse to answer a simple matter of fact about the 2020 election. Is that right? No, that's not right. Then answer the question. Who won the 2020 election? I have answer the answer it what is your answer I've given you my answer what is your answer you refuse to answer a basic question about who won a presidential election now I but you asked to lead America's intelligence community isn't it humiliating to be unable to answer this question to have to indulge the president's delusions. And that last question right there really gets to the heart of it. And this is yet Jay Clayton is a trad wife.

12:39He is a submissive person to Donald Trump. These people are so morally rotten. Imagine viewer, imagine listener, how easy it would be to be sitting there and they ask you a question, who won the 2020 election? And you answer Joe Biden. And then the next question comes along. If these people sit there and indulge the delusions, the pathological lying, the corruption of a man that wears a full face of makeup every single day, that doesn't give a shit about the American people and doesn't give a shit about that guy. The only thing he gives a shit about is that man's answer to that question. Everything, everybody that Trump supports is predicated upon blind obedience to him.

13:34The willingness, willfully walking into places to pathologically lie and humiliate yourself. That is why these people are hired. This is intentional. It is on purpose. The display of all of that is intentional and it is on purpose. And we must, every single time we analyze what's happening here, we must understand that this is intentional, that they choose these people to prime the electorate, that corruption is here. These people get to be corrupt. These people get to pathologically lie. And we plebs down here need to sit and mind our own business. And hopefully they send us some crumbs. I completely agree.

14:16And what's so terrifying about this, that this is a man, he is going to be, if confirmed, very involved in the midterm election and the election results. And that on top of gerrymandering and ICE agents and at the voting booth and, you know, Pete Hegseth putting the military on the ground and Americans, all the shit that's coming that we know is coming. He's the person in the room that's supposed to speak truth to power. Does anybody think that he's going to do that? I mean, nobody that Trump would hire because you're right. They're hired. So they won't say that. But his position is intricately involved with elections and election integrity.

14:57And we saw what Tulsi Gabbard did. She went to Georgia. She took all the ballots. I think that compared to what this guy's going to do is fucking child's play. Well, and that was a dry run. That was a dry run to see if they could do it. So what's going to happen, in my opinion, is that and other election experts have kind of alluded that this is probably what that dry run was, that after the midterms, they send the feds in to go collect paper ballots so that they are unable to be counted. And oh, they got lost and oh, they got destroyed or oh, they were all illegal immigrants. But that's exactly what's going to happen.

15:35And we're learning more details about Trump's primetime speech that is scheduled for this evening. Pop this up. President Trump will allege Chinese meddling in U.S. elections during his primetime speech tomorrow. Of course, he's going to do that. And then in closing, the late Lady Graham is getting a special guest at his funeral. Pop this up. Netanyahu is set to fly to Washington, D.C. on Saturday night to attend Lindsey Graham's funeral. Netanyahu also plans to meet with Trump during his visit. Of course he's coming. I wonder if he's going to bring his Mossad boyfriend, the late Lady Graham's Mossad boyfriend.

16:19I don't think for a second, for a second, that these people genuinely like each other. What they like is that they share a bond that they will all kill people and make each other feel okay about it and normalize it. That they will all grab power and lie and propagandize to the American public and the Israeli public and the world at large about doing it. That's the bond that these people have. If Benjamin Netanyahu were a big ambassador for democracy, real democracy, would he be a Trump supporter? No, he wouldn't be. These are bad actors. They are pathological liars, and they are cold-blooded killers.

17:07And the evidence confirms everything that I just said. It absolutely does, and this surprises me zero. I mean, Netanyahu probably mourns Lindsey Graham's death way more than Donald Trump because he was doing everything straight down the line. And I just, I just want to, there are countries in Europe that if Benjamin Netanyahu sat down, he would be arrested for war crimes. IE, Spain is the one that comes off the top of my head, but not in America. We will treat him with the hero's welcome and it's disgusting. Absolutely. All right. That's all we have. Like, subscribe, comment. We'll be back later.

17:44Thank you.
