How do I know Hegseth’s order to deny access to bases to members of Congress is about a cover up, not about safety? Because I asked for a military briefing at the embassy as a substitute and was told the policy prohibited military leaders in the region from even talking to me.

A great deal happened today. But nothing more important than this. SCOTUS allows Trump Administration to continue sending detained migrants to third countries with which the migrants have no prior connection. Just appalling.

Alex Jones is a big reason Andrew Tate became as famous as he is. Alex had a little skirmish with Joe Rogan, but offered an olive branch one day via text seemingly just so he could get Tate onto Rogan's podcast. I swear to you these are real texts, even the "Chinese monkey pig hybrid" part.
Alex Jones to Joe Rogan, 8:15.30 a.m.:
I am getting contacted by folk saying you talked about a text I sent where I talked about drinking and said I was sorry.

Alex Jones to Joe Rogan, 8:16.36 a.m.:
If true that’s fine but please don’t talk about the privet drinking to much stuff. My X will blow it up.

Alex Jones to Joe Rogan, 8:17.32 a.m.:
I am a new person and do value our old friendship and would like to regain your respect!

Alex Jones to Joe Rogan, 8:18.02 a.m.:
I am sorry I went to far before and ask you not to hurt me for it…

Rogan replies to the texts through a different phone number on the afternoon of Dec. 13, 2019.

Joe Rogan to Alex Jones, 4:21.49 p.m:
Hey brother you texted my old number. I didn’t say anything bad about you, in fact I gave you credit for being right about a lot of shit including these Chinese monkey pig hybrids. I might have mentioned you drinking, but it was just as an excuse for you. If you don’t want me to mention it again I won’t.
Hope all is well.

Alex Jones to Joe Rogan, 4:26.50 p.m.:
ThanksJones resumed texting Rogan at 8 a.m. the next day, Dec. 14, 2019, sending him Andrew Tate’s contact information, upon Tate’s request.

“If you could drop joe a txt and recommend me for his podcast I would appreciate it,” Tate texted Jones earlier that morning.

Jones and Tate appear to have dined together the night before, based on other messages they exchanged in the thread.

Alex Jones to Joe Rogan, 8:04.33 a.m.:
I have known this guy a few years. He lives in Transylvania and is a really good guest. He is a long time fan of yours and said in the past you followed him on Twitter.

Joe Rogan to Alex Jones, 12:54.51 p.m:
Yeah he’s been trying to get on my podcast for a while. I’m way over booked right now.
