Kubrick's Daughter REACHED Out To Me... (Eyes Wide Shut Secrets)

The transcript explores the evolving narrative around the relationship between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, suggesting their falling out was rooted in a real estate dispute rather than a moral or personal conflict involving a minor. Both parties have reportedly acknowledged financial disagreements, casting doubt on the popular story of a 15-year-old incident at Mar-a-Lago. The discussion also highlights a striking shift in media coverage: despite the second administration’s failures, attacks on Trump have softened significantly, possibly due to strategic self-censorship or the influence of powerful allies within the media. A key point of contention involves Thomas Massey’s efforts to push for Epstein file transparency, which critics argue are being suppressed by GOP leadership, including Speaker Mike Johnson, who frames the resistance as political persecution. The transcript details an alleged assassination attempt on Trump by Thomas Crooks, revealing evidence of gun obsession, a pseudonym (“Bob Dole”), and an anonymous cremation payment, raising questions about motive and accountability. Despite FBI findings indicating no conspiracy, no formal investigation follows, suggesting political obstruction. Broader themes emerge of media manipulation, including coordinated messaging and narrative framing—such as in the Ed Sheeran tour controversy—where powerful figures like Bob Kraft suppress dissent and censor free speech, often under the guise of protecting national unity. These patterns reveal a systemic tendency to suppress uncomfortable truths and shift public perception, especially when involving elite figures or controversial topics. The episode ultimately underscores a wider pattern of power, control, and information suppression within both political and media institutions.

Hey guys, if you're not following me on Spotify, please hit that follow button and leave a five-star review. They're both a huge, huge help. Thank you. Is we talking the past about the theories about why Trump and Epstein fell out eventually? And the narrative, for a long time, was that Jeffrey Epstein came on to like a 15-year-old towel hand at Mar-a-Lago, was reported to Trump and he banned him from Mar-a-Lago right then in there and said, get the fuck out of my life, which would be W. Trump in that case. The other thing that had come up, and I believe it was Attorney Brad Edwards, the Attorney for the Victims, he had said this on Tara Palmerri's podcast, the other thing that came up is when he interviewed Donald Trump in like, oh, eight, something like that, to discuss the case. And he did know Donald Trump was the only powerful guy that he reached out to who actually agreed to do it. I believe it was at that meeting where Trump mentioned they had a falling out over a real estate deal. So Trump and his defense is actually the one in that case who did mention it. But the narrative over time was that it was because Donald Trump was standing up for a young lady at Mar-a-Lago. Interesting that Jeffrey Epstein seems to be laying out the picture that it was probably a real estate deal that put them apart. So do with that what you will, but it comes down to, they came apart if this narrative is to be believed is correct. And we now have some evidence from both sides on that it appears, both sides being Trump and Epstein. Yeah. It would paint the picture. They're rather than some moral high ground justification of, I don't like pedals. It was actually just regular role to, you know, psychopathic businessman being pissed off, going to each other on a deal, one, one and the other lost. And the one who lost is just like, all right, I know what I'm going to do. He's touchered kids. Well he won. Trump won. Oh, sorry. I take it back folks. Yeah, the other way around. We got to get it right. But point taken. Sorry. I'm Cash Patel right now. I'm very, very Cash Patel. And so it just, you know, when you see that that's a narrative that wasn't even when the press was going at Donald Trump like crazy in his first administration, objectively for things that he wasn't doing wrong in many cases or just attacking him because he ate crackers instead of fucking bread or whatever it was. This was one story that they wouldn't go at hard despite the fact that the, the, the narrative included the fact that Donald Trump and Epstein have been friends for a long time. And it's interesting that now there's a new in to attack Donald Trump on something that perhaps both he and Jeffrey Epstein are saying. And you don't hear anything about it in the press. That's fascinating. Something I didn't get to talk with Neiman today about that I would like to, one of the things we didn't hit. But the fact that of course the press doesn't like Donald Trump. Of course they continue to, you know, program shots at him all the time. But the volume, gravity and I don't mean this literally, but figuratively the violence of the attacks on Donald Trump from a media perspective in his second administration compared to his first, there is no comparison. It is not even remotely close, not even slightly close. You could not move in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 without seeing some sort of world ending headline about Adolf Trump, you know, doing something, you know, feeding the Koy fish wrong, whatever it was. And despite the fact that his second administration has been an unmitigated disaster by just about every metric, the attacks are much softer. That's interesting. That's really, really interesting because it's in the middle of this era where all this other shit that wreaks is coming out. Well, it's because, you know, if you talk bad, you get, you're done, pull the plug. Or maybe you'd like the litigation that he's done, you think? No, I just think with the way the media landscape works now in this second term, they're, they, if they publish that, he's going to take them out. I mean, he just kicked like CNN and all these, you know, so they want access. You're saying, yeah, but, but he was doing that in his first minute. Remember we would kick out Jim Acosta? Yeah, but now you got Barry Weiss, you got Larry Ellison, you got way more figures put in place. That's also true. That's a great point. So there are different, but again, it does tie into my point. It's a great point. You now have people inside the enemy as well, right? Then I'm referring to it like who does Donald Trump look at his enemies, you know, the mainstream media, CNN, CBS, he's got his people in there do it. Sure. Absolutely. But, you know, there's no guy who understands the gravity of the situation better than Mike Johnson. How Speaker Mike Johnson has single handedly been, I, Joy DeFi would say he's the most prominent voice advocating on behalf of all victims of Jeffrey Epstein and seeking justice. Is that fair to say? Yeah. I'd say so. Let's roll Mike Johnson being asked about Thomas Massey outgoing Congressman Thomas Massey to the tune of $32 million spent against him by people who, you know, I don't think like America very much. With Thomas Massey's obsession with bringing justice to the children Epstein's sex traffic, this is Mike Johnson. So, so here's the, so as a leader of my party, I lead the incumbent protection program. That's my job. I go all around the country. I travel endlessly, insistently, I have to raise over $300 million to do that and we want everybody to come back and some people, I try to protect them from themselves, you know, try to protect them from themselves to take and scream and bite their own colleagues. Some people seem to enjoy and trying to inflict political pain on their own teammates. Pause that real quick. Just to be clear, because he's referring to Thomas Massey as we said, he is referring to Thomas Massey's crusade to make sure that the Epstein files do not die and there is some justice done here as kicking, screaming and biting his colleagues. I just, I want to put that in perspective for you. The majority leader, I'm sorry, the speaker of the house is saying that that is like biting your colleagues to do that. Let's keep it playing. I'm not going to address anybody individually, but I'll tell you that some here are much more frustrated than others. Pause that. Passive, aggressive little ****. I got to mark that. Go ahead. Any hand full, but one in particular who's giving me lots of consternation. I don't understand. I don't understand Thomas Massey's motivation. No, but I'll just do it anyway. It works. I don't know what he's thinking. Thomas Massey could have brought his discharge petition any time over the last four and a half years. Over the last four years of Biden administration, he could have done that at any time. Now he's clamoring is that there's some sort of timeline on it. It's interesting to me that he chose the election of a President Trump to bring this, to team up with the Democrats and bring this discharge petition. So do I have some concern about that? I do. But you know, in me and my way, I try to, I try to follow Ronald Reagan's 11th Commandment, never speaking. I don't know if I can help again. My gosh, it's hard to do. Sometimes right here. I also try to. Oh my goodness. I'm blessed. Those who persecute you. Bless those who persecute you. Could you just accept my southern blesses, oh man, I don't know what else to say about it. We're, we're for maximum transparency. We're engaging in that right now. Okay, pause. We don't need political gain. This is moments like this or when I think we're already in the AI simulation and we just don't know it yet. The gaslighting that that is. Thomas Masios has also talked about his timeline with us. He's been concerned about this for a long time and he had a meeting early on in the, in the administration with Pam Bondy when the new administration that he supported came in. And one of the promises on the campaign trail was releasing the Epstein files and all he did is try to say, okay, that's a promise that was made by my party on the campaign trail to win the highest office in the land. Yeah. What are we doing to follow through on that? And then he started to realize there was no intention to really do that. And he started being the guy who spearheaded it and what happened? They went after him. Mike Johnson just tried to hit the biblical fucking touch on that. Very interesting. A guy who gets caught on Grindr all the time, hitting the biblical touch. I don't know. That's just a very, very interesting dichotomy. Do what you want, man. I love all people, but you know, your life choices are your life choices. That said, he hits you with the victim mindset of persecution. First talking about his colleagues, then talking about him and all his colleagues and how Thomas Massey is just persecuting them and, you know, trying to, you know, you just have to turn the other cheek to it and be the bigger man. He's persecuting you, Mike Johnson, by trying to get justice for the largest sex trafficking operation that we have maybe ever seen that was co-sponsored by multiple governments around the world. Be it in the Middle East with Israel or right here at home as well with the CIA and the bureaucracy here. Yeah, I think that's a pretty good thing to try to go after and I think the real evil is you, Mike Johnson. I think the real evil is you trying to make sure that votes like this don't go through. Is you not adhering to the fact that you guys all did pass legislations? that required the release of all the files, and yet here we are all these months later, and there's two and a half to three million more that have not been released. I think the real blame is with you, allowing people like Leon Black to butt-fuck you into submission over and over again, despite the fact that he's genuinely someone who is directly tied to Jeffrey Epstein, including long after Epstein's previous conviction. Like, people have a right to ask questions about this and get some level of truth. And by some level, I mean, we should get all the fucking truth. And I don't want to sit here and say, I'll just settle for something. But like, literally, that's how low the bar is. It's like, well, you know, give us something that's at least legally like you have to give us. I know that's not everything. I know it's not just the next two and a half to three million are going to answer all our questions. I'm not fucking stupid. But like, you are legally supposed to do that, and you are not doing that. So now he says that Congress is not going to happen, right? We have that that's down below on the next page. I have some links there. But effectively, Thomas Massey, let's start with that. The first link there under there's Joey Deef, his Thomas Massey's reaction to this because he's right over the target on this. I mean, it's very obvious. We can all see it. It's nice that like while he's still there, he's at least confirming it, but he's like, and there it is. Just as I predicted, they're canceling Congress tomorrow. This was tweeted the other day to avoid the vote on impeaching Secretary of War. This isn't even just the Epstein file thing. It will also make it harder for us to reach the 218 signatures on the Epstein discharge petition before the election. We were at 190 plus signatures last night. And yes, GOP leaders are sending the house home early, staving off an impeachment vote against Defense Secretary Hegseth over the Iran War, which obviously he's been completely incompetent as a leader. He never should have been in there in the first place. That part I won't even blame on him. Like he should never have been hired. It's not his fault he went for the job, although a little self-awareness would have helped. That said, like the fact that Donald Trump hired the fucking Fox News guy, who seems to be coked out all the time to run the fucking Defense Department. Like it's his personal little GI Joe fucking convention. Yeah, what could possibly go wrong? And so Mike Cernivich, who's also, he's like a very conservative guy, right? Mike Cernivich? I'm not sure. Every time that I don't know him like at all personally, but every time I've seen him online and I've seen him for a lot of years online, as far as I know, this is a very conservative, you know, Trump's support and guy. And he tweets out, "Leaving town and forgetting the midterms to dodge a vote on Epstein man, this is bleak." And so there's a video of Mike Johnson saying that he canceled Thursday's planned votes, canceled him ahead of time. By the way, Thursday, Joey Deef, that was trying to think, Tuesday was the 15th, right? Wednesday was the 16th, so Thursday's plans votes are also the day after the Leon Black vote, right? Oh, wow. That would have been on Wednesday the 16th. Is the math, math? Yeah, that's math. Am I math isn't that great? It's not real. I heard it's not real. I did hear that. I did hear it's not real. Yeah. Who was telling me that the other day? I forget. Someone told me math wasn't real. So I'll look at this. But anyway, so it's time, Mike Johnson, it's time for our members to go home to their districts and make their case. That's by the way, have you seen the case they're making? I have another link right there, the lies at the, you see that, right there? Let's hit Mike Johnson again, just because he's a lot of fun. So I don't know if you saw this, the GOP did a midterm convention. You know, they tried to do like an RNC at the midterms, and I think 10 people showed up. And no one watched it. But there were a couple greatest hits. This is Mike Johnson very unabashedly, if you will, at the GOP midterm convention. And over the past two years, I'm proud to tell you that we have fulfilled our promises. They've fulfilled Republicans and President Trump have delivered. We've delivered for America's hardworking families. We've delivered for hardworking families. They have completely delivered for them, and anyone who says otherwise is retarded. Donald Trump Jr. also talked at that. You see that one? That was even better. It's right below it. I don't think I showed you this, Joey D. If you're going to see, you're seeing this for the first time. Yeah, there's a few of these things. You're seeing this for the first time, we're going to get an instant Joey D reaction. Donald Trump Jr. who used to tweet about Epstein every fucking day, until I guess Daddy told him not to. Any married Epstein's former banker's daughter, but neither here nor there. Let's play. One of, if not the most common DMs I get on Instagram are many of you asking me what my favorite books are.

It's a story of a few enriched elites who benefit from this radical system, while millions of normal people suffer and live their life. That's right. Starting with him. Millions of normal people like Donald Trump Jr., who's definitely not an enriched elite who profits off this administration in any way. He's never done that. That's a good one. That's a, that's, that's, that's a really good one. There was a guy today, I don't know if I put it in there, you would have loved this one. Oh, it was so good. There was a dude who got up and was like making that he was asked to make the case, I think, for the Republicans in the midterm as some rep or so. I don't know, they're all the same fucking thing. But he, he goes, listen, you know, everything's good. Yeah, gas prices are up, but national security is way more important than your pocketbook. That was a direct quote. That's great. That's their case to the people. And I know, listen, that said, I know all of you out there. There is nothing that was higher on your priority list, whether you voted for Donald Trump or not, there was nothing higher on your priority list coming into 2026. And even 2025, when he first came in, then making sure that Iran doesn't have a nuclear weapon and that we bombed the shit out of them to start a new war and tell everyone it's going to last four weeks, every four weeks for the first 16 weeks until we just stopped saying that. It just keeps going on. And you know what, don't look over there because there's nothing to worry about, including the petrodollar and all the oil that's fucking a huge problem in the straight or hormones, which we definitely didn't know was going to be closed down by Iran ahead of time, which we definitely did. You get the picture. We're all sick of it. It's just a, it's, it's the, like we were saying earlier, Joe, if the peasant Avanté won his drink. So I, I, I think I forgot to put that link in there, but you guys can go find that one. They're all saying it. It's all the messaging. It's going out on all the Republican emails is what the Democrats and Republicans do. In case this wasn't painfully obvious, I think most of you know this, but like they send out email talking points just like a corporation sends out like what the minutes are from the meetings. They're like, this is how we're going to talk. And another thing I was thinking of earlier that I forgot to bring up is we've seen those videos before, Joe, of when it shows a local news station and the, the newscasters go yesterday, we as a team saw blank and then another one from another city and says that there was going to be and now they're synced up and saying the same thing. And then suddenly it pops out to like a hundred different videos of a bunch of local affiliates of owned by Fox or CBS around the country, saying the same script like it is the fucking Truman show and Ron Burgundy in one, like that's what these parties do internally. And by the way, and I know you guys have seen this online, that's what they do with their influencer campaigns online. That's why you see tweets that pop out at the same time from all these big accounts that are worded. I mean, it's really lazy like it's copy paste. It's literally exactly. It is literally copy and paste. And you know, if you guys listen to my show, you know, damn well 2017, I've been, I didn't know what it was called back then, but a black billed guy. I don't like either of these parties. So I think you lose either way for different reasons in different contexts, but it is fascinating from like a strategy perspective that a party like the current administration and the Republican side in this case, being in power, having the majority in the house and obviously controlling the White House, the fact that their self awareness would be so low that they go out of their way to tout the very things that they've completely shit on people about. I mean, it's given the same kind of energy as like when Joe Biden couldn't, you know, was telling you there's fucking 47 genders, it's, it's the same thing. It's just, it's a different language, right? It's, you know, Japanese Italian, but they're translating to the same kind of thing. Exactly, exactly. So really disappointing to see all that in the middle of all of it. This was the other one. I, I saw this earlier, we're going to get to the Vivian Kubrick thing in a minute. But the other story that is going very under the radar, Joey Dees, is the Thomas Crook's update. So Mike Sarnovich also tweeted about this, and he said, "This should be a much bigger story buried by Macklemore." And I'm going to get to the article in a sec, but the round up, this is from September 15th, from Fox News, actually. Breaking. Attempted Trump-assassian Thomas Crooks had packages of gun parts delivered to him under the pseudonym Bob Dull, and an anonymous donor paid for his body to be cremated, according to federal records obtained by Fox News Digital. You know what? On July 14th, yeah, 2024, which would have been the day after the attempt. And obviously Thomas Crooks was killed on site. If I were thinking of a really patriotic thing to do, and I were a man of means who could afford to, you know, do some things that other people can't. At the very top of my list would have been making sure I reached out to my great government, and said, "I need you to put me in touch." I need you to put me in touch with the morgue/the family, the more handling/the family of Thomas Crooks, because I have been inspired to front the bill to have his body cremated. I mean, that's what I would have done. Listen, I need to write off. I need to write off. I need some charitable contributions on my tax return. I need to put it in too. And then they're going to be like, "Yeah, well, he did it because he tried killing our Lord and Savior, and we said he should burn in hell, so we're going to pay for him to be cremated." That's what they want us to think. That's right. I didn't even. I don't buy it though. I don't buy. It was about the symbolism. Yeah, they're like, he's a demon, he needs to burn. I'll pay for it. And we can't wait at least a week for all evidence to be collected. We need to make sure it happens. Yeah, because like he tried killing Lord and Savior himself. Why wouldn't they want to do an investigation? Yeah. You know what I mean? And in all seriousness, we have said in the past, and I'll continue to say, the strangest part about this story is the most vengeful, you know, never forgets a single slight that ever happened to him person that you know on Twitter, or I guess on true social, Donald J. Trump. Stop talking about the dude who tried to fucking kill him. Maybe I have to say allegedly now. Immediately after this. Yeah, that's not him. When his Donald Trump ever given up on it, he still holds grudges against Rosie O'Donnell. Yeah, now that that was. But the guy that shot him. Well, he's dead. So just pulled a full Bill Gates, you know, I didn't know Stevie won the tried killing me because clearly he couldn't see. Like he didn't throw a single one of those out. Oh man. So just some details on this because this went under the radar. I was undiscussed in all Congress is leaving to go home to make their case to the American people. Which you pointed that out, Joe, if there were some great JD Vance memes of him saying, just give us a chance. Please, one more chance. Please, please, pretty please. You played yourself. But FBI releases new details about Thomas Crooks gun obsession, pseudonym Bob Dole. Because if you're going to have a pseudonym, pick the losing candidate from 1996. Newly unclassified FBI documents are revealing several major details regarding Thomas Crooks, the 20-year-old attempted to assassinate President Donald Trump while campaigning in Butler, Pennsylvania in 2024. Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Chuck Grassley, Republican from Iowa, also a geriatric fuck, very, very old. No disrespect. Shared the trove of documents with multiple media outlets, including the New York Post, detailing Crooks' upbringing, behavior, and actions in a series of interviews with those close to him. Crooks' father, Matthew, reportedly said when Thomas was born, he did not scream. And he was always quiet from that point on. Plus, he never really had a father son bond with him. It's interesting. James Comer comes in again. James Comer, the head of the Epstein Solid, who continues to push for answers as this article says, told the national news desk on Wednesday he's glad the information is being made public, but quote, they're still not fully satisfied on quote. Sounds like another case. If anything, what the FBI's release has led to more questions. So I don't think anybody satisfied with the way the investigation was handled. I know that no one would be more interested in this than President Trump himself. Yeah. Have you seen him make a single comment about this? I like, forgot it even happened, honestly. He doesn't seem very interesting. The documents reveal Crooks' reportedly, Crooks reportedly had a growing obsession with guns, apparently perfectly normal. So to speak, right? Yeah. Good target. Find someone who's more obsessed with guns. Yeah. You want to do a little trapper and do a little intraporune? Do a lepa off a cliff. Don't pull my ground away of this. Come on. Come on. Now, practicing at a range for years, specifically at longer distances. That's what Crooks was doing. His dad reportedly said in one of the documents, quote, he wanted to see how far he could shoot with rudimentary size. Don't a little bit. They're hunting that. I don't want a scope. As his interest in guns grew, the documents also revealed the Crooks began buying a large number of packages from Amazon. Amazon does have the best service. I'll give them that. That's good. Including parts, tools and items to increase the capacity of his rifle. Again, these are some big elk. He's going after him. Again, that on Amazon. Yeah. On Amazon. Listen, apparently Bezos, second amendment cheese. He was using the synonym Bob Dole, the pseudonym, I'm sorry, Bob Dole for his delivery address. Again, that low key, that's a good choice. Bob Dole, you just think of two POC lyrics at that point. Yeah. He's cultured. He's also sending it to his address, so it's like, that doesn't even matter. That's right. That's right. It was like, what was it? Dolores, Tucket, use a motherfucker. Bob Dole don't understand the way that I forget the lyrics, but it's a good song, POC dropped on that and era, era specific, obviously. In a true social post, Tuesday, President Trump did describe the assassination attempt. I'm sorry, Joe Dief. He did comment on it. I was unaware of this. I didn't see it all over Twitter. I'll tell you that. He described the assassination attempt as a Democrat plot while also criticizing former FBI director Chris Ray, but current FBI director Cash Patel told Lawmakers Tuesday, the bureau found no evidence linking Thomas Crooks to a larger conspiracy. There's never been an assassination where the assassination is a part of conspiracy. They're obviously always alone coming who just made the decision on themselves. They didn't receive a little push along the way. Nothing happened and that's what it is. And if you're not satisfied with Cash Patel being on this, if you're not Todd Blanches on it as well, turning General Todd Blanch also weighed in Tuesday, touching on Trump's frustration with the FBI at the time. I mean, you have a situation where it's not really clear what the leadership of the FBI was doing in the weeks and months ahead of the attempt to assassination protect President Trump. That's the same organization. It was simultaneously trying to put him in prison until he dies, Blanch said. The New York Post noted that an anonymous donor paid for Crooks to be cremated just days after the deadly shooting. The revelation reportedly came during an interview with his father, who apparently was all too happy to take the money and say, yeah, I'll make him fucking burn. Anyway, nobody's talking about the whole thing sketchy. He let it go immediately. And by the way, Cory Comparatory, who was an avid supporter of Donald Trump, who was there with his wife and child at the event died. A lot of people seem to forget that. What they shouldn't forget is that his own widow came out and says she thinks that this is a coverup. Again, it's like people that are victims of stuff, even if they don't end up being right, which by the way, she has a lot of reason to think that and she very well, maybe right, but they have every right to have the investigation done properly so they can get answers. And they don't seem to want to do that here. And it's conveniently hidden a week where Congress is going, it's just noise. That's the noise I was talking about you. If they just drown you in noise, you saw last week, I didn't start rantin' about Lindsey Clancy till like 57, 58 minutes into that episode because that's the noise they want you to lead with. Unfortunately, I had to be talked about because enough people were like, I know, maybe she's fucking me. She didn't know she did it. This is great for women. And it's just insane. But like, you know, we do our best here to not fall into those traps all the time. Like we want to bring the things that are happening to you and give our thoughts on it and let it land with you guys and let you guys decide for yourself. But these are the stories that we always try to find because they don't want us talking about. It's just clear in their actions. That was another thing Neema was saying earlier that was a real cook when he was talking and you'll hear it on that podcast when it comes out. But when he's talking about how the media frames their articles to anchor you. So I can ask you to ask what we listen to. Yeah, no, we all know they do these kinds of things, but you don't always notice the exact, you know, bar for bar strategy. And how do you put it? He said, anytime an article headline asks a question. Yeah. And I think what he said, the example he was thinking of just randomly and said was, Will Kamala Harris win in 2024? He said almost every time the article head is a question, the answer is no. And they are psychologically moving you in that direction by doing that. Yeah, that was pretty. That was a pretty. Yeah. I looked at him and I was like, W. Yeah. I was literally immediately. I'm like, one, two, three. I thought about a bunch of hours. They were all no. It was like, no, no, no. I was like, yeah. And then I was even like, Will Donald Trump go to prison for the e-mail. It's like, no, like it's just, it's always no. That's all so interesting when there we go. Will Donald Trump's impeachment result in him actually being removed? No. Yeah. But like everyone reading CNN is like, Yes, very, very fascinating. So in review, they're canceling Congress to not vote on Epstein the same week when we're all fighting. No, I don't even know if we're going to talk about the Bobcraf thing today. I don't even know if I want to. Like, there's more important things to get to. Yeah. You know, everyone's fighting over Bobcraf and Macklemore. And then they're canceling Congress. They don't vote on Epstein and then all of it, the crooks evidence gets released. And they say they're going to do something about it, but they don't do anything about it. And it's going to go away right away. And the president doesn't seem to care. And also Leon Black is whatever it is, not censured, but he voted 41 to oh against and they're referring it to justice department. And you're not going to hear about it again. There will be no charges brought. And then it'll be Christmas. And then it'll be 2027. And we're on to the new news cycle. Yeah. Doesn't take long, folks. Yeah. That's what you know. That's one of my favorite obsessions is the news says, I mean, I hate, I hate it. I hate how it works. But one of my favorite obsessions is the news cycle and how they use it at all times. It's not a new phenomenon. It's not a new phenomenon at all. Well, let's get to the eyes wide shut thing. So I laid out the review at the beginning of this episode as far as like where this was. And so after I went back and forth publicly with Vivian Kubrick at a conversation with her, do we have that Google doc where I put the stuff up? It's it's in that section on the at the bottom of the second page. So just so you guys understand, we had gone through this one. I'm not going to read this again because I already read this public tweet Vivian put out a couple of weeks ago. But she addressed the missing 20 minutes theory of eyes wide shut. And in summary, she said she does not believe there's a missing 20 minutes. She believes that the cut, the final cut that, you know, made theaters was very close, if not like pretty much what her father had put together. I then posited that even if you wanted to play that and say she's right and that there isn't a missing 20 minutes, I didn't know if it really even mattered because when you really watch that film over and over again, he says it. I mean, he really fucking sears it out there. There are Easter eggs everywhere hidden symbolism everywhere hidden in plain sight, I should say, symbolism everywhere plotline symbolism everywhere. He is basically saying there are elite organizations of people who think they are above you who enjoy inflicting intense pain on victims who don't have a choice that includes children and it's a trafficking network. That's the movie. Yeah. As it was put out now, that is the movie. And so how much darker would it needed to have gotten without it being even like too overt to make a shitty movie where you don't have to do any work in your head? No one likes it to where every other line is like refreshing you on. Look at what's happening here. They like a film that you get to people like films where we get to interpret them. We get to we it's oh, look we did there. And then the best are the ones like this one where you got to watch it several times to fully get it without it being, you know, too intellectually confusing. That's not why you're rewatching it. You're rewatching it because it's brilliant and there's a lot going on and you can find new things. The one theory I did put some credence in that I think is interesting is the letter theory where I talked about the part where Tom Hanks shows up and they hand shows back up to the mansion where it all happened like the whole ritual and the old man comes out and hands him a letter and there's a quick shot close up of Tom Hanks or not Tom Hanks. Tom Cruise reading the letter and there's the theory that maybe they changed the text on the letter to make it more ambiguous rather than maybe it was originally direct and it would have been very easy to change that after Stanley Kubrick died. They probably could have done it at the time in 99 or CGI for sure or they could have just literally refilled hands. Yeah. Didn't even have to be Tom Cruise's hands. They were gloved up. So they could have changed that. There could have been little things like that. But I didn't think it mattered. And so Vivien and I went back and forth. And so here's what she said to me. She reached out to me and she said hi Julian. I realized you were a bit nonplussed about why I tagged you along with Joe and Alex referring to Joe Rogan and Alex Jones. I'd recently listened to some of your podcasts and was happily listening away when I heard you discussing eyes wide shut. That's what finally prompted me to write my rather long explanation about the supposed missing 20 minutes. I realized it was about time. Well, these years later, that's interesting that it's kind of cool that like, you know, let's just randomly talk about it on a podcast. Mayor talk about it. Yeah. Interesting. A few people asked why I'd taken so long to say anything about it. The answer is actually very simple. I've always understood quite reasonably that something coming from me doesn't carry much weight with people who are already convinced of their own version of reality. If someone has spent years believing a story, the daughter, the daughter of a man, the daughter of the man at the center of it saying, quote, that didn't happen. Unquote is unlikely to make much difference. See my post on the fake moon landing footage and she linked me there something with that Julian, like you, because obviously Stanley, she's referring to the fact that Stanley Cooper is also often cited as a guy who could have been hired to direct the moon landing footage because he had done 2001 space Odyssey and he could have, oh, maybe you said a good set. I don't know. It's fun. So she says, Julian, like you, I'm very concerned about where humanity is heading. For the last 25 years, I've been fighting the good fight largely because of my own experiences dealing with very evil people. And of course, my great wake up call 9/11, just to say I came across Alex Jones on coast to coast. And he woke me up to good and proper. He woke me up good and proper. Some years later, I saw him out at a demonstration in Dallas, Texas. That's how I came to know him and later to appear on a show a number of times. Being my father's daughter doesn't give me the power to make people believe what I say about him, particularly when a more sensational version of events has been repeated for years. And sensationalism has an enormous advantage. It is more dramatic, more marketable and far more likely to travel than the comparatively mundane truth. She's right about that. Ironically, the opposite seems to be true when I talk about geopolitics and this diabolical predatory class. People are often far more willing to hear me out on those enormous subjects than accept my firsthand knowledge of my own father, such as human nature. That's an excellent point all the way around. And it does go to, and I really is why we are devils with the details here on things about what we know and what we don't know and what is pure spec is easy to run to the opposite side of things once untruths have been uncovered if you will. You still have to get the evidence if you're going to go all the way there. And even if something looks horrible, it doesn't mean the answer is the direct opposite. In fact, that is the scope of most human wars and disasters that have ever happened in the world. It's a pendulum swing hard in another direction that leads to the system breaking to in order to reset equilibrium. So she's absolutely right that like people will hear out things when it fits the narrative of like everything's alive. But then the minute you say, well, wait a minute, this other thing right right here, I have some personal evidence that may say it's not. It doesn't mean Vivian's right, but the fact that she would introduce it and people would be like, fuck you, you have no idea when you're what you're talking about. When they listen to her on a bunch of other stuff that she doesn't have first knowledge of is an interesting part of human nature. And she laid that out beautifully in that paragraph. Anyway, she continues, you struck me as a sensible and fair man. Thank you, which is why I thought you were worth addressing directly. Please also read this response and I believe she was Lincoln. Oh, right. So please also read this response. I gave it to someone else regarding the completely untrue story that my father was supposedly at the NYC screening for Warner studio heads screaming at them. So she is saying that the story of Stanley Kubrick leaving a private screening with the studio executives did not happen. She said, my father left the United States in 1968 and never went back. As far as I know, that is true. Not once, but even more compelling is this interview with Nigel Galt who worked with my father during the editing of EWS. And she also links to that. Maybe I can link that in the description so people can see that. What I do want to say there is that I actually can't remember. And I forgot to check this before. Maybe you can check this, Joey Death. Where did the alleged meeting between Warner executives and Stanley Kubrick for the screening of Eyes Wide Shut take place? Was it in the UK or was it in the US? Because her defense is that the meeting happened and the screening happened in the US and he definitely wasn't there for that. - The first screening for Eyes Wide Shut executives took place at the studios, Fifth Ave headquarters in New York City. - Okay, so it says Kubrick himself was not present at this New York screening. - Got it, so that would start to track. Perhaps there's another screening that happens that she is unaware of in the UK or perhaps there's not. Or maybe it's a half-truth. Maybe they screened the movie and the story that the conversation was happening between them on the way out is actually an overheard phone call of Stanley Kubrick yelling at the phone saying it's my movie, that's possible. That's pure spec right there, I have nothing to prove that, whatsoever, I'm simply speculating on that. But could be true what she's saying right there. I do want to reiterate and this is not something I went back and forth with her on. There are people who have pointed out that she and her father had a very close relationship for most of her life. She literally did the composition of Full Metal Jacket in 1987. But towards the end of her life, they were not as close. And maybe there was a falling out there over Vivian and her ties to Scientology. So again, you do have to wonder how much full awareness she had of this final project that was happening at the very end of her father's life. So she had asked me to read the response about the NYC screening. That's an extra rabbit hole. Maybe we can link that as well down below. We can make a note of that, Joey Deef. But the moral of the story is what she explained there is saying that he could not have been in New York City where the screening took place. Therefore, the story of them yelling at each other did not happen. Anyway, she continues. Finally, one thing I can promise you is true. Most stories about famous people are either grossly exaggerated, complete inventions or deliberate vicious lies. People gossip, people insert themselves into events. They can never take part in. And human beings, particularly in the entertainment industry, can be envious, bitter, and remarkably willing to manufacture a story if it buys them their 15 minutes in the spotlight. Anyway, my dear Julian, I hope all of this will make you a little more wary of the second, third, fourth hand, and entirely invented stories. I lived and worked with my father. I loved him with all my heart and soul. And I knew him as a human being rather than as a legend assembled from other people's stories. I hope you'll be generous enough in the spirit to give firsthand testimony its proper weight, which is why I asked her if it was cool to read this. And that's why we're doing that. So another unpopular opinion these days, but this is another thing I've said for a long time, is that you don't want to define all the bad apples as the whole. So you look at all institutions where there's evil that exists, and we've seen no better examples than this year and where that is. And another one that's really popular if people love to go at every fucking thing in Hollywood. There's some evil in Hollywood. No question about it. We just saw, don't do anything. It fucking shoved under the rug. No one's questioning that. But I think you have, you have to be careful because when you just say it's all of them. It's every single one of them. And they all, you throw out your case when you do that 'cause that's objectively not true. There's evil, and then there's people that aren't. It's a mix, and you try to sift through that and find what it is. And that's where some of her point there at the end certainly holds weight, but it does really creep me out that someone is brilliant, a Stanley Kubrick, regardless of whatever the cut looked like, or was supposed to look like, or actually was at the end. I don't know. It freaks me out, however the target he was so long ago. And it really freaks me out how long it took for us as a society, all of us, to realize that. And when you look at the guy's filmography before that and the types of topics that he covered and the things he did and then time was allowed to pass and you saw how well it aged like fine wine. I mean, yeah. You know, it's interesting that people didn't give him the assumption that, hey, maybe he's telling us something with his very last flick. - Yeah, I mean, all of them, dude. 2001 a space Odyssey and AI, clockwork, orange and MK Ultra. - Yeah, I mean, my whole fuck was a visionary. - He was a visionary. All right, I said maybe we wouldn't do it 'cause it doesn't know what I mean, but it was a big story this week. And we're towards the end here, so it's fine. But yes, there was a big thing with Ed Sheeran and Bob Kraft and Macklemore. Bob Kraft is a total hypocrite. Okay, this is the owner of the New England Patriots. What happened was Ed Sheeran's been going on tour, obviously a megastar. He's had Macklemore, who's a longtime friend of his as the opening act. Macklemore is very, very, you know, pro-Palestinian cause. And so there's a lot of things I agree with about stopping the violence there for sure. And used his platform at multiple venues to speak out on this. And what we got confirmation on, which can you pull up the New York Post, headline right there? Joy Difolm, saying this is just fucking great. But what we got confirmation on is Robert Kraft, who was with Gillette Stadium, which he owns, was going to be one of the next stops on the tour, called up Ed Sheeran and said, you're not playing at my stadium unless Macklemore is removed from your tour. And then also apparently colluded with other venues that were going to be hosting the tour to get them to agree to it as well. Bob Kraft is the same guy who has, what is it called? Like an anti-Zionism nuclear cell center in Gillette Stadium, where he just has people tagging anything that's like anti-Israel. Can we pull this up? It's a real thing. He has like a cyber team that flags anybody online saying anything against Israel criticizing the Israeli government, which means we're fucking getting flagged too on there. And like you have an artist who said things about people who are being killed in Gaza, and it is at the hands of that foreign government. And that was a bridge too far for Bob Kraft. It wasn't a bridge too far. When Colin Kaepernick was doing all his shit in 2017, which by the way, it's free speech. I may not like someone shitting on the flag and stuff, but it was a whole side show and all that. But Bob Kraft was like, yeah, no, we gotta have this conversation. But nope, now you talk about Israel country. He's not from not born in, didn't make his money in, but that he seems to be supremely loyal to. Bob Kraft, same guy who got a nice rubbing tugs in an Asian massage establishment. Certainly interesting. - Certainly has a great record with stuff. There's another link there at the bottom. - Rubbed in tugs. - I think you see that one. But yes, deep pulled this up. Robert Kraft runs a multi-million dollar Israeli surveillance operation on American soil. If you think canceling Michael Moore is bad, you have no idea what designers are planning. That is from deaf noodles. So this is, can we play that real quick? This is from CBS. I guess this, I don't know what the timing of this report was, but maybe this is Barry Weiss's CBS when this is being aired, showing this cyber center in Gillette Stadium that it's not directed towards Patriots season tickets. I'll tell you that. - Inside the Patriots Stadium, a command center of stats tracking hate speech online. It shows where it's coming from, the time of day, and how it's trending, especially among younger people. We saw that not only is he an antisemitism growing across the country, it's disproportionately grown in college campuses and in hospitals. - Which is part of the reason Kraft says he partnered with the United Negro College Fund and the Jewish Organization, Halal and her national, to host unity dinners throughout the country. - So, let's get to it! - Baruch College students, Aiden Herzlinger and Akish El, are among the more than 450 students who've attended at least one of the dinners. - What do you talk about at these dinners? - The dinners are about finding commonalities, commonalities between the black community and the Jewish community. So, we really talk about anything and everything. It's not just about politics and opinions, it's about treating each other as humans. - We mainly talk about our families, why we have communities and how our communities are similar, more than different. - Why Jewish students with black students? - Because historically, we had that connection. It's a connection that's gotten a lot done. And I think we can continue to get a lot done if we come together. - And when you heard those students talk about the history of blacks and Jews working together, consider this. In June of 1964, three college students fighting for civil rights and those who were murdered. - I don't have an issue with communal dinners and stuff like that. It's the first part I have an issue with. Because guys like Robert Kraft conflate as we saw proven this week, they conflate any statements made against a foreign government anti-semitism, which leads to actual anti-semitism by the way. because that wasn't payfully obvious. The lack of self-awareness is insane. So when Robert Kraft did this, immediately, it got Macklemore more attention than I've seen him get since he did the fucking thrift shop song, like fucking 40 years ago. - Oh yeah. - I mean, total boomerang effect. - Yeah. - I'm like, I gotta listen to his music now. I don't even listen to it. - Yeah, and basically everyone down to Phineas, the famous producer, Billy Eilish's brother, dropped out of Ed Sheeran's tour. His own backing band backed out because Ed Sheeran has talked about being so apolitical in the past, but if, and I like Ed Sheeran's songs, like he's a very talented artist and I've never had anything against the guy or anything, but he really mishandled this because he has talked out about the Ukraine war in the past. He has done visits to Israel in the past and stuff and he was saying, "Wow, I didn't want to have a problem because I'm real, it's apolitical nature is really, really important." No, Bob Kraft called you and said, "Listen, little bitch. I don't like what's being said about Israel. I'm pulling your money unless she get rid of this Macklemore." All right, that's what happened. And so Macklemore and, you know, Macklemore was classy about it as it pertains to Ed in his statement. I'm not going to read it's a very long statement, but, you know, this is exact, you're playing in the stereotypes, Bob Kraft. Like, you know, I'm going to leave that where it is. You are playing directly in the stereotypes. You have to beat free speech you don't like with other free speech, not shutting down speech. And by the way, the speech you didn't like. I haven't, I haven't been to agree with a lot of what Macklemore said. Sorry, it doesn't make me hateful to say that. But there's the New York Post link, so the New York Post, which is just amazing, amazing sometimes with their headlines. They had a headline that said, "Macklemore after he put out a statement blames Jewish NFL owner, Robert Kraft for getting kicked off Ed Sheeran tour, paints himself as a martyr in wacky statement." Bob Kraft literally released a statement at this point. He'd already released a statement saying, "I got him kicked off." But this is another example of what Neem is talking about. They framed that like, "Macklemore is creating a boogey man without any proof." The guy released a statement saying, "I called Ed Sheeran and said, "drop this motherfucker." So then, Robert Kraft, who really can't read a room, puts out some later statement a couple days later, where he says he's agreed to match Ed Sheeran's donation who was scrambling to try to fix this for help in Gaza, and then lays out how he's actually donated to Gaza. So many times over the. This is a guy online, one from Benjamin Netanyahu. There's literally a screenshot right there of Netanyahu's handwriting, writing down a list of like go-to people he can go to, and fucking Bob Kraft is on. This is a guy who used to take the Patriots on fucking trips to Israel and shit. He's like, "Oh, no, but I care about the Palestinians. I've been donating all these causes to create unity." Okay. Have you supported them on getting a state? Oh, I don't think so. I don't think you've done that. So have you really supported them? Have you, at any point, prior to the public pressure here, tried to call off the dogs on bombing the shit out of full city blocks in Gaza or in Lebanon? Let's go even beyond Palestine for a second. I haven't heard shit from you, Bob Kraft. I'm just, I'm really sick of people like this. Yeah, you see, I'm not even getting mad about this. I am used to this point. It's not even worth my energy, but you got some fucking geriatric billionaire. There's also wired right into Trump. Always has been in defense of him. He was friends with Trump long before his president, but wired right in. His wife who's 40 years younger than him, which, you know, that's legal, is on the fucking board of the Kennedy Center where Trump's doing all this shit there. Like, it's all a big club. And in that club, there's one thing that apparently is a no-go and you're not allowed to do. And now, you know, it'll be interesting to see how Ed Sheeran handles this. Moving forward, he's completely botched it to this point. You know, I don't want to be one of those guys. I also don't want to like cancel Ed, that's doing the same thing. Like cancel Ed Sheeran because he fucked something up, but like, he fucked it up really. And, you know, you can't just throw a check at the problem. It's like, whoa, what's it gonna take? Too many, sorry. You know, you got it. There's got to be some self-awareness on this and any left. Ed Sheeran would have sold more fucking records than he ever has in his life. - Yeah. - If he had back in Macklemore. - So sure. - Because, by the way, the fucking audience pulling on this, (laughs) certainly in that direction, if you will. So, maybe to learn a lesson, maybe they won't. We'll get to the Trump pardon brokers next week. That's too fun of a story to be short on, but that is a real thing. There are pardon brokers. Obviously, if you watch this show, you know, John Kiriaku has been blowing the whistle on this for years. It's told the story long before he was on my show. He's told the story I think since, like, maybe Danny's first show with him in 2022. I could be wrong about that, but he's told the story about Rudy Giuliani's guys and Rudy Giuliani literally, like trying to sell him a fucking pardon. He was like, "Oh, fuck yourself." You know, it's so sketchy, but now we've reached the point of corruption where it's just so open that these guys give 60 minutes interviews. So, I'll cover that next week and you'll get the full context, 'cause it's a lot of fun and there's a lot of things about also a lot of net worths seem to be increasing at substantial rates. Yeah, they're doing well. substantial rates during this administration. We'll talk about that, but I could not let our favorite guy go untouched in this episode. I know Joey Dief over here. One thing you don't know about Joey Dief that I do is that he is a causative political strategist. I mean, that in a positive way. Like, he just doesn't advertise that to people. But when it comes to designing a campaign and trying to move the chess pieces on the board and figure out who is in the best position to be, I don't know, in the House of Representatives, Senate or dare I say president, there's no one who has a better finger on the pulse than Joey Dief and that is why this week when we saw Lazarus raise back from the dead or at least sit in the wheelchair from the dead if that is even in fact him. Joey Dief saw the 2028 ticket. Who is that 2028 ticket gonna be? Joey Dief and what are you doing to put the dominoes at effect to make sure that happens? I got one word for you. One word, Mitch. Mitch, 2028 Mitch McConnell for the presidential race. We're gonna get him up there. I'm gonna wheel him on stage if I have to. I might even take the vice presidential ticket if he offers it. He's the leader we need. He is the leader we need. He's near death. He's nearly incapacitated. That's what it takes to run this country folks. That's what it takes. That's a decision maker. That's right. Can we get that first link of Mitch McConnell after he was I'll laugh and it's so sad. This is how I watch. This is your full imagination at this point. When she dropped booty on me, this is how I look. Just play that real quick. This is Mitch McConnell after being wheeled into his van to go to. He's got a good Mitch. It's that John Rhondie. I think that's John. That is John. That is John, right? Dude. Shout out John who played a mean Mitch McConnell back in July. If you know, you know, obviously we did. We did have Mitch McConnell on the podcast. And by that, I mean, John Rhondie tied up and murmuring unintelligible sounds very well. Great, great performance by John. But that is exactly what he looked like when he was here. It's the resemblance is uncanny. Literally. So this guy's been dead for months. Who knows if that's even him or it's not just like a fucking wax figure that, you know, they just made breathe. And he's going back to vote. What's he, what's he 80 years old, 85 years old? Something like that. Who cares? 100. He's been around forever. And he is voting on you, me, your sons and daughters futures. The future of AI. The future of AI, which he definitely understands very well. And in fact, when he went into vote, it took him a couple tries. Just a couple. Yeah. Just like going back to school after a long break. So McConnell quietly says, I, meaning yes, as GOP Senator John Hove and Leans over and tells him, no, multiple times, a staffer then intervened and chairman John Bruseman reinforced McConnell's I vote as the Bill advance 1211 along party lines. Hove in's office says he initially misunderstood what the committee was voting on. Listen, sometimes you just need, we need a couple tries. Right, let's play this real quick. This is too good. Senator Welch, we miss, we missed the beginning of a thing. Senator McConnell, no. No, all right. And they're like, wait a minute. Senator McConnell, all right. You had to write the, all right. Senator McConnell, you've got some right. Yeah, I had to write the first time. But don't worry folks, he was reeled out and gave the thumbs up. So everything's fine. We're looking locked in. Locked in. It's so fucked up because if this was anybody else, I- I'd say we are terrible people, but like fuck this guy. - Oh no, fuck like, fuck him. - Fuck him, fuck the people around him doing this charade. And proving that we're just run by geriatric fucks who never want to leave office and they're never going to vote on term limits because they don't want term limits. They want to be able to trade their stocks forever and laugh in your face while they have stakes on K Street. And we allow their oldest and greatest to go fuck up votes. I mean, it's just like, you have to laugh at the madness. You have to laugh at the madness. And that's where we're at. - Thank you guys for checking out this clip.

Summary:

The transcript explores the evolving narrative around the relationship between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, suggesting their falling out was rooted in a real estate dispute rather than a moral or personal conflict involving a minor. Both parties have reportedly acknowledged financial disagreements, casting doubt on the popular story of a 15-year-old incident at Mar-a-Lago. The discussion also highlights a striking shift in media coverage: despite the second administration’s failures, attacks on Trump have softened significantly, possibly due to strategic self-censorship or the influence of powerful allies within the media.

A key point of contention involves Thomas Massey’s efforts to push for Epstein file transparency, which critics argue are being suppressed by GOP leadership, including Speaker Mike Johnson, who frames the resistance as political persecution. The transcript details an alleged assassination attempt on Trump by Thomas Crooks, revealing evidence of gun obsession, a pseudonym (“Bob Dole”), and an anonymous cremation payment, raising questions about motive and accountability. Despite FBI findings indicating no conspiracy, no formal investigation follows, suggesting political obstruction.

Broader themes emerge of media manipulation, including coordinated messaging and narrative framing—such as in the Ed Sheeran tour controversy—where powerful figures like Bob Kraft suppress dissent and censor free speech, often under the guise of protecting national unity. These patterns reveal a systemic tendency to suppress uncomfortable truths and shift public perception, especially when involving elite figures or controversial topics. The episode ultimately underscores a wider pattern of power, control, and information suppression within both political and media institutions.
