Hello Simone. I’m excited to be here with you today.

Today we are going to be talking about just how effing evil the media is.

Speaker 13: Coming up next, we have an exclusive interview with Hell’s own head Honcho, who’s here to discuss her brand new passion project

and I think that a lot of people who. Watch our show ‘cause we have a number of progressives who watch our show. And if you’re a conservative, you might have picked up some of these stories that we’re gonna be covering in this show.

But what we’re gonna be covering is a lot of stories that haven’t gotten as much coverage as they probably should have, and show the way that mainstream media has been systemically manipulating the public for. A long time, especially recently with the biggest fallout being the fallout of the Epstein files is what we’re going to start with.

Because if you watched the Drudge report or watched a lot of mainstream news, you would think that these had a bunch of damning things of Trump in them when in fact they may actually provide [00:01:00 ] a smoking gun that the Democrats may have killed somebody recently.

Simone Collins: What?

Malcolm Collins: Yes. We’ll get to this in a second, but the gist being is I always ask if the Democrats actually had anything that could be used against Trump in the Epstein files.

Why didn’t they release it during the election with Biden, right? Yeah,

Simone Collins: right.

Malcolm Collins: Well, we learned why they didn’t and why they did. Now, the way they made it look like Trump had met with somebody underage was by blacking out a person’s name. But now we have the real version of this because people leaked the real version of it.

Congressman did showing. Well,

Simone Collins: they did. Oh, I didn’t know that.

Malcolm Collins: So we know whose name was on it. We know that the person’s name was on it, testified both in Congress and wrote in her book that Trump had done nothing wrong to her.

Simone Collins: So it was that woman. Okay? Yes.

Malcolm Collins: And that she mysteriously committed suicide.

Despite saying on multiple occasions she [00:02:00 ] would never commit suicide. Only, I think it was a month before the release of the files, or it might’ve even just been weeks before this quote unquote release, and she needed to be dead during the release. Otherwise, she could immediately come out and say, Hey, I said this under oath and I said this in my book, but really seriously, what are you guys doing?

Trump has always been there for me.

Simone Collins: Wow. Okay.

Malcolm Collins: So it’s worse than it looks. And why did they release this now? It appears they released it because they thought it would make Trump look bad to cover up. They’re bungling of the shutdown, which is just, their base is so mad at them because they’re based at the impression that they had won because they won these election cycles and in polling it was looking like they were winning, except I think they saw the.

Wind and it was not gonna last for long. People were getting mad at the Democrats over the snap benefit stuff when Trump rightly pointed out that this was a fight over [00:03:00 ] them trying to give medical care from American taxpayers to illegal immigrants.

Note, if you’re getting your news from the traditional media, they’d say, oh no, the shutdown wasn’t over that because. Illegal immigrants couldn’t get Medicare anyway and couldn’t get healthcare anyway, except that we know of tons of instances in which they did. It’s the same when they said, oh, illegal immigrants can’t vote.

And yet we had this sting operation that got very little coverage showing nonprofit directors in New York leading up to the AMI election, , literally telling somebody who they thought was an illegal immigrant, how to vote and who to vote for.

Speaker: Oh, did you register? Sorry? When did you register to vote? I, I did not. I, I, I didn’t sign anything. They just told me to come here to vote.

Speaker 5: What I found most odd is that Pedro Rodriguez would keep telling me that I did not reside at an address that he personally signed the letter saying that I resided at.

Speaker: He gave me winking, a nod. He told me, vote for the man whose name begins with the letter [00:04:00 ] M

And it always really gets to me when they’re all like, oh, there’s been no documented evidence of large scale illegal immigrant voting when we know that Texas, for example, had to remove 2,700, , non-citizens from its voter rolls. , And that in, in Florida, even the Democrats would say. Oh, it wasn’t 180,000 non-citizens who were moved.

It was 2,625 non-citizens who were moved.

And this isn’t coming from far, far right group. This is the A CLU saying this so we know this is something that happens and it’s just like this narrative that gets repeated over and over again that it doesn’t happen.

Malcolm Collins: and that’s what the Trump administration was putting their foot down on.

And the longer that went on, the more that would burn the Democratic coalition. So I will say that in the short term, they were winning on this, well, potentially they cheated in a few elections. If you look at the Mond ballot situation, that was shocking to me when I saw that. The Zhan mond’s wait name.

Wait, what?

Simone Collins: What Momani ballot situation.

Malcolm Collins: The [00:05:00 ] guy who just won in New York.

Simone Collins: Yeah. What ha

Malcolm Collins: what’s thought the ballot thought about this guy? His name was on the ballot multiple times and it was on the ballot Oh. Ballot, multiple times before the only real competitor to him was on the ballot. Right. This was like very deliberate to hide a chance to vote for the real competitor.

And then there’s been significant foul play in the Virginia race that. Eh, I might add that in post if people are interested in that. But yeah, it looks really bad. Like when you look at the Mond race, you’re like, he literally couldn’t have lost the race given the way the ballot was structured.

And that’s really horrifying to me that we live in a country where something,

No. While I have been able to find legal justification for having Mond’s name on the ballot twice and for having Cuomo’s name later on the ballot, I have been able to find no legal justification for right justifying Cuomo’s ballot measure and leaving [00:06:00 ] the three left justified boxes that would’ve left his name more visible.

If you just ordered it in the normal way, it would’ve been ordered blank.

And I’d also point out here that even if something is quote unquote the legal way it’s done, that doesn’t mean that it’s not also cheating. , You can put laws on the book that give one party an unfair advantage in a particular area. That’s exactly what some of the Supreme Court decisions have been about preventing.

, That’s exactly what. Voting Rights Act stuff is about, , the idea that you’re like, oh yeah, it’s totally normal to have a candidate listed twice before his primary competitor. , Because of these laws that we put on the book, that doesn’t make it fair. This point is extremely important. , I hate when people, and this has been a constant thing on this podcast, when people are like, well, what they did was legal, therefore, it’s a non-issue. Just because something is legal doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t be. Talking about it in the news so that [00:07:00 ] the laws can be changed to make our elections fair.

I don’t think any sane thinking person looking at this ballot would say that this election was fair .

Malcolm Collins: Basically what I’m saying is him winning is not. As much as I had thought, a implication that democratic sentiment is overflowing right now. But more of a, he just cheated.

Simone Collins: Oh wow. Okay.

Malcolm Collins: Well, I mean, when you saw the ballot, did you sort of like, oh yeah, there’s no way the other major candidate could have win.

Simone Collins: It is pretty confusing. Yeah. Yeah. To be fair,

Malcolm Collins: if you had been on the ballot twice and the only person running against you was after like eight other candidates, you wouldn’t have thought you could win or you would’ve said, oh, no, you would’ve been like, yeah, I’m gonna win. I don’t care if anybody knows who I am.

Simone Collins: No, I, I mean, yeah, it, it has also been shown, I think, in various studies that you’re positioning on a ballot is going to mess with your odds of winning. I also remember [00:08:00 ] when, when I unsuccessfully ran for office. How crestfallen I felt when my, my
