Ok all.Good news/bad news on the “Painfotainment” front.We CAN make the show temporarily free via YouTube (it’s in the paid archives with the other old shows)but they’ll make you sign in b/c they want you to be 18+ (it’s our heaviest show.I don’t blame them).I’ll keep you posted.

Happy Hardcore History Day everyone. As usual, thanks for your patience! “Mania for Subjugation IV” dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3…

People always ask me why I believe First World War Germany was far stronger and militarily superior to Second World War Germany. This is one of the main reasons. Hitler's was a government full of sycophants and conspiracy nuts. And they made stupid error after stupid error.

When I was on the radio in the Clinton years the favorite term used by my right-wing callers (who spoke of "black helicopters and the like) was "jackbooted government thugs" (this was after Waco and Ruby Ridge). They used that phrase CONSTANTLY. I wonder how they're feeling now?

The number of people gleefully defending shooting a man on the ground with 4 or 5 guys on top of him kicking him and punching him in MN today is disgusting. I covered police shootings. No police dept. in America could do this and not have a comprehensive hearing/trial afterward.

Standard operating procedure in a police shooting is to take the shooter and put them on paid leave while the investigation occurs and then the investigations results would be announced to the public. The public is then allowed questions etc. Is any of this going to happen?

Regardless of your thoughts on today's MN shooting the predictable response by the administration officials should really tell you all you need to know.While some try to parse out video frames, they're straight up using words like "assassin", "domestic terrorist" etc. ORWELLIAN.

How about we unmask all these bots again?I'm sympathetic to the idea that some people might be in countries that then go after them if their location is disclosed.But right now the site is being used to rip America apart from within. And it's mostly paid non-Americans doing it.

Americans are being confused about the difference between illegitimate political "lawfare" and absolutely necessary political "oversight". Those terms are being deliberately conflated by politicians and the President.Good rule of thumb:if you're actually guilty,it's not lawfare.
