Alex Jones 2026-May-28 Thursday

Harrison Smith, sitting in for Alex Jones, kicked off the show by playing a clip from a famous speech by John F. Kennedy, where he talked about a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy, and specifically highlighted the story of Karl Marx being employed as a foreign correspondent by the New York Herald Tribune in 1851. Kennedy's speech noted that when Marx's requests for a modest raise were denied, he eventually devoted his talents to the cause that would lead to the rise of communism. This sparked a discussion on the show about the relationship between capitalism and communism, and how the excesses of capitalism can create fertile ground for communistic ideas to take root. Harrison Smith argued that this is not just a historical phenomenon, but a ongoing process, where the exploitation of workers and the creation of misery can drive people to seek alternative systems, even radical ones. With guest Frank Wright joining the show to discuss UK politics and surrogacy, among other topics, Harrison Smith set the stage for a deeper exploration of the intersection of ideology, economics, and social unrest, and how understanding this dynamic is crucial to making sense of the current state of the world, making this episode a must-listen for those looking to connect the dots between the news and the underlying forces shaping our society.
