or when you're thinking about an upgrade and I'm thinking about an upgrade and there's a new upgrade cycle coming and then just like before in prior upgrades my phone's battery gets really bad when it's time to look for a new phone. And yes it was enough to convince me to buy a new phone. I haven't done it yet but I'm definitely buying a new phone because my current one doesn't work well enough to…

cal politicians the power to decide where the money goes you're guaranteed to have corruption guaranteed. That responsibility needs to be taken away from the city leaders. They shouldn't have control over money flowing through the system in that way. Or there's more transparency you could get to it that way. That's central planning. Well everything is centrally planned it's just what the center is.

Anyway Candace Owens had a whistleblower, CIA whistleblower Kevin Shipp. And he says that Martin Luther King was murdered by the CIA. Which is interesting because Trump had promised that he would release those files as well. And he says that was a CIA operation because they considered him a dangerous communist and the FBI was bugging the churches where giving some of his speeches. He was a top target for elimination.

How many of you believe that the CIA killed Martin Luther King? I always just assumed it didn't you? Always assume that. I don't know when I first started assuming it but I always thought it was so obvious. I mean after I was in school of course I was just propagandized but once I became an adult and started seeing how the real world worked it didn't take me long to piece it together. And it wasn't because I saw something on the news. The whole time I was like wait a minute so they're saying that the CIA or somebody may have killed Kennedy and he was provocative but elected president. What are the odds that Martin Luther King was a totally random shooter? You know so I think I'd worked that one out on my own that that didn't really look like a coincidence to me. So he was dangerous to the system. So he was considered dangerous to the system.

Now isn't it interesting that the same people who allegedly killed him elevated him to a symbol of peace and a model to follow? Here's what I think. I think that Martin Luther King was elevated by the white leadership of the country because he preached peace. And so as long as they focused on the peaceful part they could keep control of the part of the country they wanted to control apparently. And they would use him as their brainwashing operation while at the same time their internal view was that he was so bad he had to be killed. But if they could sell him as a symbol of peace then he could keep future generations passive. So I always thought he was just an OP. Not well he wasn't the OP he was doing his thing but that he was used as part of somebody else's op anyway.

There's research in science that suggests people are getting more bored because of phones and stuff. I will disagree with that because I have not been bored since phones were smartphones. How many of you would say the same? I don't remember the last time I was bored. But boredom when I was a child was my number one problem. My number one problem. I was bored out of my freaking skull as a child in school. Bored in college. Bored now not in the fun parts but bored in the classes and stuff. So boredom has been and I've said this before boredom has been one of my biggest challenges in my whole life. And that went completely away when smartphones became workable. Because I'm standing in line I'm looking at my phone I'm fascinated. There's not a time when there isn't something on my phone that fascinates me. So I haven't been bored. Have any of you? Maybe you're lonely more than you're bored. Loneliness is still real. I mean that your phone won't solve loneliness.

And now there's thoughts from the Harvard Crimson is writing about some research that pesticide consumption might be linked to male infertility. It's a Harvard study so they say if you're eating some fruit that's got thick skin maybe it's not so bad but if you're eating thin skin stuff like a strawberry maybe the pesticides are getting in there and maybe you should think of some organic strawberries that are small and weird looking.

That ladies and gentlemen is the conclusion of my incredible podcast for today. And I'm going to say a few words to the local subscribers privately. I'm going to say goodbye to X and YouTube and Rumble. Thanks for joining. You've been awesome and what a week. It's just going to get better.
