#267: Flesh Institutions and the Pedophile Ecology
All the stars are here for Donald Trump, America's least opaque institution.
A mysterious sickness is tearing through Gaza, and Rulin and Amjad could use your help.
UPDATE: Documentary evidence. The fuckin' Boney King of Nowhere really lives this life out in Diddy Wah Diddy.

Could you expand on your comment on Walter Benjamin?
I genuinely, confusedly wonder how our host stays sane.
who say he do
Fucking love you bro!
I gotta say, your way of doing impressions is really good. It's not a perfect voice double of the person you're imitating, but you have a way of capturing the spirit of the person that's more important than merely sounding like them. Making Epstein sound like the stupid, almost frat boy turd from Brooklyn that he was (no disrespect to the good people in Brooklyn), is spot on. And the poppy Bush always has me dying.
It's really less about the voice exactly than about what they used to call "turns" in old-timey showbiz, the circus, etc. – viz. "Another One of My Turns," the Pink Floyd song, or what Burroughs called "routines" – you can get the voice dead right and be totally unfunny, which a lot of impression comics do. They sound exactly like Trump and then say "Bigly, Greenland, I'm orange, I'm a Cheeto." What you have to get is the inflection and rhythm, the "turns," the thought process, how they go from one thing to another, what THEY would think is funny or normal or tragic or annoying or whatever. Most Trumps are awful because they imitate him in grammatically correct sentences. He has never once spoken like that. You have to interrupt yourself at least 3 times, with either "insider knowledge" OR weird maudlin bolts of sentiment. "I'm attacking Iran because of Epstein" is nothing. It has to be "And Iran, everybody's been, because we talked about Iran, didn't we?, and some of you – some of you probably don't know, Tony Robbins, very great patriot, he had the idea for AMERICAN GLADIATORS, and they stole it from him. They stole it, frankly. And I said, 'Tony,' I said, but it's what you have to get to ... is Iran. And Tony has always been very good about that. Very great, actually." You need the voice a little bit, but the turns are way more important – e.g., Poppy Bush would NEVER say "Unleash Chiang" once and stop. This cocksucker has owned the world since birth, and it's his favorite inside joke that everyone else has to pretend to laugh at (except Jeb, who apparently doesn't get it). So it's NEVER just "Unleash Chiang." It HAS to be "Unleash Chiang. Gonna Unleash Chiang on ya, there. Whoopsie-doo, look out, never know when I might Unleash Chiang. You think you're in trouble now, buster, wait till I go ahead and let Chiang off the leash."
classico with a mustache selfie.
I would like to make it clear that I do not have a detached solo moustache, I'm just not putting the whole damn beard on here
This truly is a classico. Any chance you could unlock the ep so we could send it to ppl?
what the hell, why not
Is that a Teenage Jesus and the Jerks cover of Bo Diddley about 20 minutes in? Never heard it. Rocks.
It's 8-Eyed Spy, which I think was Lydia Lunch's band either right before or right after TJJ. Many years ago, 2018, when less than 100 people knew about this show, Jerry Stahl – who was one of the first – asked me out of nowhere if he could give my email address to Lydia Lunch. Naturally I said yes, and then I got a VERY enthusiastic Lydia Lunch email about the fact that she'd wanted to make a certain movie for a long time, but hearing D/C convinced her to get working on it and make me a featured performer in ... a film about people who become artists because they're too mentally ill to be anything else. I replied with something to the effect of "As an idea, sure, but what exactly would you need me to do?," and I never heard back. I wish I could tell you her email address, because it is the exact perfect email address for Lydia Lunch.
Outstanding work, Michael. Missed these types of shows.
Great episode, small note: Kennedy wanted Diem gone just like the CIA did. He signed off on regime change. He explicitly appointed Lodge as ambassador to be tough on Diem and get results. In a July 4th meeting with the NSC he asked about alternative leadership options. What freaked him out was that Diem was supposed to go into exile and instead he was chased down and summarily executed. The OG "we came we saw he died" - Similar to Lumumba, a question of degree not kind.
Yeah, but he also wanted the US out of South Vietnam with the Diems. He explicitly recognized, to Pierre Salinger among others, that the plan of a US proxy state in Vietnam was doomed, and his plan was to get Diem (and Nhu and Madam Nhu) out of there and then let the whole thing collapse

The wasp families that built the 4th reich love to extort each other. Their threats are subtle and implied. It’s gossip girl shit they’re doing it for the love of the game. It’s why they got along with the mafia too, it’s all a racket
There’s almost no crime greater than giving yourself your own nickname. Kobe Bryant also guilty.

What’s the song at the beginning of the episode? Sounds like Steven Wilson but could be literally any other British person
Index- Steven Wilson
Yet another example of why France is so important to this history of politics. They gave us the three main types of politicians: pedophiles, antisemites, and antisemitic pedophiles.

I suspect that the big issue with Epstein and Brunel (whom we hear nothing about- a man even closer to Trump and just as dead as Epstein for nearly exactly as long…) is that BPR (Background Pedo Radiation- something I must build a detection device for) was fundamental to financial institutions around the world (S&P, Deutsche Bank…) deciding that toxic tranches of debt slopped out on ARM rates to American taxpayers were in fact pristine, investment grade winning derivatives. Of course this was only possible with President Clinton eliminating Glass Steagall… I think that the notion that the CIA and Mossad having the cajones to collapse the world market in absolute opposition to what we see as neoliberalism gives away the game. No no to that
Thanks! And if you have not watched the Drey Dossier yet- whuf- check this out: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=87CynCTgUwc
