In this week’s episode, we discuss how it was to be in DC during Trump’s second Inauguration, and the MAHA ball. Then: a summary of Executive Orders: positive (e.g. freedom of speech, reality of biological sex, affirmative action, putting America first, securing our borders, establishing DOGE, J6 pardons, promoting beautiful architecture, and withdrawing from the WHO), negative (Gulf of America, the death penalty), and environmental (off-shore wind and natural gas, ANWR, fish and fires). Then: three reasons that Trump could become the best president we have had.

We have "cartesian blinders being put on us so that we are trying to make sense out of scraps of information and hints." - @bretweinstein
WEINSTEIN: I mean, even if you have your villains who are engaged in the behavior that motivated this war in Iran, even if that's the story, presumably most of the people in the path of these ferocious bombings that he is describing are not deserving of going back to the Stone Age.
In fact, I distinctly remember him telling us that part of what we were up to was liberating the people of Iran from their tyrannical regime.
So if it's the tyrannical regime that justifies the ferocious bombing, then it's a tragedy that other people are going to be sent back to the Stone Ages with them. Right?
HEYING: It's it's not a narrative. It's an incoherent set of talking points.
WEINSTEIN: Yeah, it's a kind of cheerleading that is completely inappropriate from the perspective of the president.
Bret Weinstein discusses the Trump administrations "back to the stone age" recent remarks in the latest episode of The Evolutionary Lens, Episode 320 "Are we back in the stone age?" on DarkHorse.
Bret Weinstein explains, "If you stop businesses from starting here, and if you drive people so that they move elsewhere—even though it's difficult to do—then the point is the tax base dries up, which then forces you to become even more predatory for the people who stayed.
And that's really the thing, right? They're setting themselves up so that they have to go after more and more people, because the people who are starting new businesses are not going to do it here."
Iran Was Always the Final Domino
Trump Is Just the Scapegoat
The Eighth Front: The Rise of Corporate “Independent” Media
We’ve reached a point where Israel, often in coordination with elements of the U.S. government, is openly discussing strategies to dominate the information space as part of what it calls the “Eighth Front” — the media and social media battlefield in its broader war.
So what does this Eighth Front look like? Well, it involves buying up as much media space as possible. Also, making well-funded effort to buy influence, shape platforms, fund aligned voices, and marginalize or suppress independent ones that challenge the official narrative. When those in power control the money printer, the money printer inevitably focuses on controlling influence.
My Hypothesis
I believe Trump is being positioned as the fall guy for the war with Iran and the economic fallout that will follow. For this setup to work, three things need to happen:
1 Trump must appear to be calling the shots and fully in control....
I just want to re-post my response to the episode with Michael Yon and Masako Ganaha since I think this is important and I would really like to get a response from @bretweinstein .
Unbelievable! "The Zionists" control the world? really? This is one of the oldest antisemitic statements in the book since by "The Zionists" it is implied "The Jews" otherwise why use this term?. I expected some push back from Bret other than the meek remark about Zionism definition. When you regard to "the Zionists" you are generalizing in a dangerous way. If you mean the Israeli government say so. If you can name names do that. Almost all Israeli jews are Zionists, because being a Zionist just mean that you believe Israel is the land of the jews. Any other definition of Zionism is simply false. The Zionist movement rouse as a result of antisemitism in Europe in an attempt to find a safe home for jews, and the holocaust boosted and probably caused this vision to realize. Now you may ...
