Speaker 1: 0:19

Hello and good morning, happy Tuesday. We're going to talk about the FBI and Joy Reid for a minute here, maybe if I can get to my phone to work. Okay, we're gonna go to a couple of different, read it and weep a couple of New York Post stories. Just some headlines maybe. But Don Lemon vulgarly fires back at Megyn Kelly after she slams ousted Joy Reid. Boy, that's some rich stuff right there. It has been washed up.

Speaker 1: 0:57

Don Lemon trying to blast out Megyn kelly where she is just on fire with her independent journalism, while he is just sinking big time in the battle of former network heavyweights or it is the battle of the former network heavyweights. Don lemon and megan kelly, both one-time stars at major networks who have now entered the wild west of independent journalism, are using their newfound freedom to speak more frankly than ever. X cnn. Er lemon went so far as to send kelly the very not safe for cable message. Go f yourself. Wow, you got some. Wow, don, really? Yeah, you got some room to talk there, pal, I don't think so. Let's see, I thought there was some. Here we go, more headlines.

Speaker 1: 1:57

Did you guys see Joy Reid crying and sobbing all over the internet, like yesterday, about leaving her show. My show had value, my show had value, my show had value. Did it, as jeffy would say? I don't think so. Value for who? Value for who? You? You, the most racist person out there is joy reed. Maybe some of these preachers that are preaching in their churches. Do you see some of these preachers that yell and scream and carry on? Oh my gosh, it's terrifying, and they have large crowds spreading that crap. Our msnb host says final goodbye to joy reed following her show's sudden cancellation. Teary msnbc anchor joy reed remains defiant as she breaks silence after firing. I'm not sorry. Well, that's why you're fired. Joy reed wears fur coat as she leaves one million dollar home. In first photos since msnbc ouster wow, yeah, she had on a like I don't think it was a real fur coat, it was more like a feathery, I don't know. Puffy feathery coat I don't think it's real fur, obviously and a green ball cap. Yeah, that looked real nice. Joy. Well, she's gone, but you know, I wrote about uh on the Victor Girls blog the other day.

Speaker 1: 3:23

The three that are replacing her are just as bad. So we got Simone, somebody or another she's just a younger version, carbon copy of Joy Reid and we got Michael Steele, who used to be the DNC or no, no, no, excuse me Republican national chair for a short little while before he was replaced by Rince Priebus or whatever his name is he's called. Michael still calls himself a Republican, but he just goes wherever the money is and he had the nerve to say he's a Republican. Go and then go work for MSNBC or CNN or wherever he is. And then he backed Joe Biden in 2020. And then in 2021, turned around and wanted to run for the governor of Maryland as a Republican. This guy is out of his mind. You know who he is.

Speaker 1: 4:17

These three do the weekend show on MSNBC. I think it is Well. They're moving it to Joy Reid's spot now. And I? It's the Simone girl, it's Michael Steele, and then it's also Alicia Menendez. Now, who is Alicia Menendez, you ask? She is the daughter of the now foreign agent, bob Menendez. Yes, that is correct, in case you did not know that. So the three clowns that are replacing Joy Reid are going to be even worse. So more things to poke fun at and laugh at.

Speaker 1: 4:51

Now on to X News. I say X News. If you go to your X app and you do the search button and at the top there will be a news tab. Go to your news tab Now. It may be curated just for you, but what I have showing up on mine is FBIbi allegedly destroys epstein files amid transparency demands. Now alex jones is out there already spreading this stuff around that, since cash has been sworn in as fbi director and um dan bongino as the deputy director, that now all of the people that are currently working in FBI are destroying all the files, giving them an out, giving Kash Patel and Dan Bongino an out as to why they're not, as to as why the Epstein files and everything else won't be released because they've been destroyed.

Speaker 1: 5:50

Air quotes yeah, okay, I don't know and people will believe it, people will gobble this up, but it's already to me it's an excuse, it's conspiracy theory to me. You know, I don't. They probably. I don't know. I don't know because I don't work there. So who knows? But I'm just telling you that's the story.

Speaker 1: 6:07

Now is from. Alex jones is out there spreading it all up that the employees whistle. There's a whistleblower out there that says they're the insiders. Are destroying all the evidence before cash can even do anything. Uh-huh, already, given him an out, an excuse. Well, there you go.

Speaker 1: 6:26

Let's go read some of it, shall we? So I'm trying to find some. Let's go read some of it, shall we? So I'm trying to find some. And listen, don't believe some of these accounts. Like there's a US Homeland Security News account, don't believe it. If anything. Like Ivanka Trump, there's an Ivanka Trump account out there, but it's Ivanka Trump News and these are not real. They're not real. They're not real. So I'm trying to find. Uh, alex Jones is spreading it. Let's see who else is. Um, well, you can go find it out for yourself. Um, alex Jones, breaking the fbi, is reportedly destroying the epstein files, according to a respected whistleblower, so, and alex jones is even reposting himself. So there you have it. There you go.

Speaker 1: 7:23

All right, we need a question of the day. All right, before I get to the question of the day, I would like to to thank Giblets, mr Shons and Boy Blob for out there always promoting my stuff and welcoming me back to the podcasting world. Thank you so much, mr Shons. I hope you're feeling better. I hope you're going to get out of the hospital soon.

Speaker 1: 7:44

All right, question of the day. Trump has recently been talking about going to Fort Knox and seeing if there's any gold in Fort Knox. My question of the day is well, there's a couple of layers here. You can pick whatever one you want. Just give me your thoughts on it. How about that? So, do you think there's gold in there? And if not, is this going to collapse the economy like Pat Gray is talking about? Is this going to collapse the economy like Pat Gray is talking about? And or would you like to see, like a Geraldo Rivera type, reveal Having Trump walk up in Fort Knox and opening the door to see if there's any gold in there? What do you think would happen? Do you want to see that? All right, that's the question of the day. Let me know what you think. Thanks for listening. Have a great day. Love y'all.
