Previously on Red Pilled America. 0:00:35.680 --> 0:00:36.560 Some cultures they've. 0:00:36.440 --> 0:00:38.760 Thrown children inside the bowels of its burning out. 0:00:40.800 --> 0:00:44.040 In the world of Alex Jones, almost every major tragedy 0:00:44.320 --> 0:00:46.400 was a government orchestrated operation. 0:00:46.640 --> 0:00:49.239 They're totally brainwashing this country. In the submission and the 0:00:49.280 --> 0:00:52.000 name of ending terrorism, when the federal government blew up 0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:56.760 the Oklahoma City building, there you see the funeral pyre 0:00:56.960 --> 0:01:00.640 burning with the effigy of a human or it could 0:01:00.640 --> 0:01:01.920 be real, ladies and gentlemen. 0:01:01.960 --> 0:01:03.880 I remember the time ten to Alex and you know 0:01:04.039 --> 0:01:07.120 that what you're saying about bohemian groves and true And 0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:09.880 Alex said, yeah, I'm not going to tell my listeners that. 0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:13.280 The Bohemian groove attack could have been chalked up as 0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:16.360 a fluke, but in the coming years this scene would 0:01:16.360 --> 0:01:23.479 play out again. I'm Patrick Carelchi and I'm Adriana Cortes, 0:01:23.760 --> 0:01:24.280 and this is. 0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:26.920 Red Pilled America, a storytelling show. 0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:30.480 This is not another talk show covering the day's news. 0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:32.680 We're all about telling stories. 0:01:33.360 --> 0:01:33.800 Stories. 0:01:33.840 --> 0:01:36.480 Hollywood doesn't want you to hear stories. 0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:41.080 The media mocks stories about everyday Americans that the globalist ignore. 0:01:42.000 --> 0:01:44.920 You can think of Red Pilled America as audio documentaries, 0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:54.440 and we promise only one thing, the truth. Welcome to 0:01:54.520 --> 0:01:58.120 Red Pilled America. 0:02:05.960 --> 0:02:08.640 To my girls, I love y'all more than anything in 0:02:08.680 --> 0:02:09.200 the world. 0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:13.160 It was the morning of December fourth, twenty sixteen, and 0:02:13.320 --> 0:02:16.359 Edgar Welch was alone in his car recording a message 0:02:16.360 --> 0:02:17.320 to his two daughters. 0:02:17.880 --> 0:02:19.919 I can't let you grow up in a world that's 0:02:20.000 --> 0:02:21.320 so corrupt by evil. 0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:26.000 Driving northeast from Salisbury, North Carolina, Edgar believed he was 0:02:26.040 --> 0:02:28.680 on his way to stop something horrible from happening. 0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:33.080 We got to at least stand up for you or 0:02:33.160 --> 0:02:34.720 other children just like you. 0:02:35.600 --> 0:02:39.160 Days earlier, Edgar, a devout Christian, ventured down a dark 0:02:39.200 --> 0:02:43.600 online rabbit hole one with videos, posts, and rumors about children, 0:02:43.720 --> 0:02:47.680 hidden rooms, and powerful people. One video stood out. He 0:02:47.760 --> 0:02:50.640 sent it to a friend with a simple message, watched 0:02:50.680 --> 0:02:53.840 Pizzagate The Bigger Picture on YouTube. It was a news 0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:57.200 report that suggested that the mainstream media was involved in 0:02:57.240 --> 0:03:00.760 a massive cover up about a Washington DC pizzeria that 0:03:00.880 --> 0:03:04.120 was connected to a global elite pedophile. It was an 0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:08.760 info Wars report, and the conspiracy theory influenced Edgar into acting. 0:03:09.160 --> 0:03:11.320 Like I've always told you, we have a duty to 0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:14.520 protect people who can't protect themselves, to do for people 0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:17.000 who can't do for themselves, and that's what I'm trying 0:03:17.040 --> 0:03:20.800 to do. I hope you understand that. One day, I 0:03:20.880 --> 0:03:21.800 love all y'all. 0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:29.880 Hours later, Edgar parked near a Washington DC restaurant, grabbed 0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:32.840 his rifle and a thirty eight caliber revolver, and entered 0:03:32.880 --> 0:03:36.920 Comet Ping Pong pizzeria, determined to save the children, and 0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:39.600 when he did, his life was never the same again. 0:03:42.520 --> 0:03:45.000 We're at part two of our series of episodes entitled 0:03:45.080 --> 0:03:49.360 Gish Gollop. We're looking for the answer to the question 0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:52.600 why are conspiracy theories spreading by telling the story of 0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:56.320 a pioneer in the space Alex Jones, so to pick. 0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:58.400 Up where we left off in our last episode. In 0:03:58.440 --> 0:04:01.320 two thousand and two, a troubled man with a superhero 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:04.240 complex decided he was going to save the children that 0:04:04.280 --> 0:04:09.080 were being sacrificed at a campsite in northern California. After 0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:13.840 watching the Info Wars documentary Dark Secrets Inside the Bohemian Grove, 0:04:14.280 --> 0:04:18.679 Richard McCaslin believed the film's thesis that elites were potentially 0:04:18.760 --> 0:04:22.560 sacrificing kids to a huge owl statue as part of 0:04:22.560 --> 0:04:26.479 a Satanic rite of passage. To the deeply Christian man, 0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:31.480 this could not stand, so on January nineteenth, two thousand 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:34.919 and two, dressed in a superhero costume with the words 0:04:35.120 --> 0:04:39.800 Phantom Patriot painted across his chest, Richard infiltrated the Bohemian 0:04:39.839 --> 0:04:42.960 Grove with the full arsenal, But with no kids to 0:04:43.040 --> 0:04:46.440 be saved or resistance forced to fight, he resorted to 0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:50.359 his backup plan, burn it all down. Richard set a 0:04:50.360 --> 0:04:53.800 building on fire, but it was quickly extinguished by sprinklers. 0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:57.880 When the local authorities arrived, he surrendered and was arrested. 0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:01.880 The Bohemian Grove tale spun by Alex Jones, turned out 0:05:01.880 --> 0:05:05.240 to be a hoax, the phantom patriot would be sentenced 0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:11.760 to almost twelve years in prison. Now, just one crazed 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:14.840 Alex Jones fan could be chalked up to being a fluke. 0:05:15.200 --> 0:05:18.599 But if another god fearing, conspiracy minded fan were to 0:05:18.640 --> 0:05:22.120 be influenced into saving the children from elite pedophiles, well, 0:05:22.160 --> 0:05:25.880 then some might begin questioning the business model of Alex Jones. 0:05:26.400 --> 0:05:29.200 That moment would arrive after a tranch of emails were 0:05:29.279 --> 0:05:35.920 leaked to the public. On October seventh, twenty sixteen, Wiki Leaks, 0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:40.760 the non profit organization that publishes leaked documents, released thousands 0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:44.280 of emails from John Podesta, the chairman of Hillary Clinton's 0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:49.680 presidential campaign, and it wasn't the first leak of his emails. 0:05:50.120 --> 0:05:52.960 In July twenty sixteen, on the eve of the Democratic 0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:57.720 National Convention, WikiLeaks released the initial batch of Podesta emails. 0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:02.160 The Democratic National Committee's computers were hacked months ago and 0:06:02.360 --> 0:06:06.599 looted tens of thousands of emails. The Clinton campaign is 0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:08.520 blaming the theft on Russia. 0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:12.400 The emails revealed collusion between the Clinton campaign and the 0:06:12.400 --> 0:06:16.120 Democratic National Committee to shut out Bernie Sanders. This is 0:06:16.120 --> 0:06:19.240 a crisis situation for them, They do expect that there 0:06:19.240 --> 0:06:21.320 will be more leaks and that it could go on 0:06:21.440 --> 0:06:24.320 for several more weeks, if not much. And they were right, 0:06:24.800 --> 0:06:27.720 and when more of Podesta's emails leaked in early October 0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:31.360 twenty sixteen, many believed that they were released to counter 0:06:31.440 --> 0:06:35.520 the bombshell Access Hollywood tape of then presidential candidate Donald 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:36.680 Trump speaking Ludeley. 0:06:37.000 --> 0:06:40.239 It remains to be seen whether Donald Trump's campaign will 0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:42.800 be able to recover from the video that is sending 0:06:42.920 --> 0:06:48.720 shock waves through the nation's capital. Previously unaired footage from 0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:52.359 two thousand and five was recently obtained by The Washington Post. 0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:56.760 It shows the GOP nominee bragging about infidelity and being 0:06:56.800 --> 0:06:57.919 able to grope women. 0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:02.320 Wellk you some takebacks in cases that kissinger. Yet I'm 0:07:02.360 --> 0:07:05.000 automatically Jack could the beautiable. I just started kissing them. 0:07:05.040 --> 0:07:07.840 It's like a magnet. 0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:09.920 And when you were started, they let you do it. 0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:12.000 You can do anything, but you grab them by the. 0:07:13.800 --> 0:07:14.640 I can do any of them. 0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:18.080 So, with the legacy media executing what appeared to be 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:21.640 a hit job on Trump, his supporters were especially motivated 0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:25.160 to find something anything salacious about Hillary Clinton in the 0:07:25.200 --> 0:07:29.680 Podesta leaked emails, an army of Reddit, Twitter, Facebook, and 0:07:29.720 --> 0:07:34.400 four Chan users became Internet sleuths, scouring the emails looking 0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:40.200 for any evidence of Hillary wrongdoing. But after weeks of combing, 0:07:40.360 --> 0:07:43.480 the only major revelation was that Hillary spoke differently to 0:07:43.560 --> 0:07:48.920 Wall Street bigwigs behind closed doors. The salacious angle wasn't materializing. 0:07:49.520 --> 0:07:52.360 Then a massive story sparked an idea. 0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:55.920 With just over a week before election day, Hillary Clinton's 0:07:55.960 --> 0:07:59.720 campaign is fighting a political firestorm that appeared to be 0:07:59.760 --> 0:08:00.840 put out in July. 0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:04.600 At the time, the Justice Department closed its criminal investigation 0:08:04.760 --> 0:08:07.360 into her use of a private email server while she 0:08:07.440 --> 0:08:10.440 was Secretary of State. Now, the FBI is reopening the 0:08:10.480 --> 0:08:14.040 case after new emails were discovered in an unrelated manner. 0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:18.400 The unearthed emails were from the FBI's investigation into disgraced 0:08:18.440 --> 0:08:23.280 Congressman Anthony Weena. Weena stands accused of sending sexually explicit 0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:26.480 messages to a fifteen year old and is married to 0:08:26.560 --> 0:08:33.480 longtime Clinton aide Huma Aberdeen. Sources tell CBS News the 0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:37.400 new trove of potentially thousands of emails were found on 0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:42.040 a confiscated laptop shared by Weena and Aberdeen. When asked 0:08:42.040 --> 0:08:45.280 about that possibility, Clinton called them rumors. 0:08:45.320 --> 0:08:47.280 We don't know what to believe, and I'm sure there 0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:49.000 will be even more rumors. 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:52.160 And Clinton was right. More rumors did begin to circulate. 0:08:52.720 --> 0:08:55.640 Within forty eight hours of the news, an anonymous Twitter 0:08:55.720 --> 0:08:59.800 user posted that the emails on Anthony Wiener's laptop revealed 0:08:59.840 --> 0:09:03.240 that Hillary Clinton was involved in a pedophile ring. The 0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:05.040 post read quote. 0:09:04.600 --> 0:09:08.120 My source said, it's much more vile and serious than 0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:10.080 classified material on Wiener's device. 0:09:10.360 --> 0:09:13.760 We're talking an international child enslavement and sex. 0:09:13.640 --> 0:09:18.560 Ring conspiracy theory. Sites ran with the rumor, including Alex Jones. 0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:21.440 When I think about all the children Hillary Clinton has 0:09:21.480 --> 0:09:26.440 personally murdered and chopped up and raped, I have zero 0:09:26.520 --> 0:09:28.720 fear standing up against her. Now you heard me right, 0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:31.280 Hillary Clinton has personally murdered children. 0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:41.760 Alex Jones brought a purported forensic investigator on info Wars, 0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:45.840 a guy named Doug Hagman. Hagman claimed that his sources 0:09:45.880 --> 0:09:49.320 were saying that they were uncovering some incredibly dark material 0:09:49.440 --> 0:09:50.520 on Wiener's laptop. 0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:55.400 My sources at the periphery of this investigation and even 0:09:55.440 --> 0:10:00.280 within NYPD said, look, this is not just about sex thing. 0:10:00.360 --> 0:10:04.280 This is not just about espionage. This is about child pornography. 0:10:04.520 --> 0:10:06.640 This is all about sex trafficking, or a lot of 0:10:06.679 --> 0:10:07.959 it's about sex trafficking. 0:10:08.320 --> 0:10:11.800 And then the Info Wars guest connected the Wiener investigation 0:10:12.040 --> 0:10:15.200 back to the Podesta emails published by WikiLeaks and what 0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:19.360 he suggested would eventually grow into a massive conspiracy theory. 0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:22.080 There is a subtext or coding to some of the 0:10:22.160 --> 0:10:28.000 emails that Podesta and others have including Hillary. For example, 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:31.200 pizza party. I'll just leave this out there, pizza party. 0:10:31.240 --> 0:10:34.560 That's not exactly what it means. You know, don't bring 0:10:34.600 --> 0:10:37.120 a you know, don't bring your favorite video over for 0:10:37.800 --> 0:10:42.479 pizza knight. A pizza party is something that has sexual connotations. 0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:45.680 This is going to involve not just the Clinton campaign, 0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:50.120 but it's also going to involve high levels, high congressional staffers, 0:10:50.160 --> 0:10:53.960 high congression or high congressional honors. People they knew about this, 0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:56.960 they were part of this. Think of this as like 0:10:57.000 --> 0:11:02.240 an electronic Bohemian grove, an electronic persistent bohemian grove. I 0:11:02.240 --> 0:11:05.840 guess in the nutshet, we're seeing money laundering, child exploitations, 0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:07.360 sex crimes with miners. 0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:09.880 We're gonna see video of a toddler getting chopped up. 0:11:09.960 --> 0:11:13.080 We're talking Jeffrey Dahmer kind of activity. 0:11:13.360 --> 0:11:16.720 The segment piled one salacious claim on top of another. 0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:20.240 It was around this time that many so called Internet 0:11:20.240 --> 0:11:23.040 salutes began to home in on what the Info War 0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:27.720 segment highlighted. They focused on Podesta's emails related to food. 0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:34.600 Several emails included discussions about pizza. Some of the exchanges 0:11:34.679 --> 0:11:39.560 sounded awkward and ambiguous. In one email, someone asked John 0:11:39.600 --> 0:11:42.599 Podesta quote, the realtor found a handkerchief. 0:11:42.720 --> 0:11:45.199 I think it has a map that seems pizza related. 0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:46.160 Is it yours? 0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:47.840 They can send it if you want. 0:11:48.120 --> 0:11:52.120 Podesta responded, it's mine, but not worth worrying about. In 0:11:52.200 --> 0:11:56.200 another exchange, then Bill Clinton advisor Doug Band sent an 0:11:56.200 --> 0:12:00.520 attachment with the file name pizza dot jpeg. The image 0:12:00.559 --> 0:12:05.080 showed American journalist Unilee and Laura Ling eating pizza with 0:12:05.120 --> 0:12:09.079 a young girl, reportedly Lee's daughter after being released by 0:12:09.080 --> 0:12:12.520 North Korea. The two journalists had been held captive for 0:12:12.559 --> 0:12:16.160 almost five months and sentenced to twelve years hard labor 0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:19.959 by North Korean courts, that is until Bill Clinton successfully 0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:23.280 secured their release. In the body of the email, Clinton 0:12:23.320 --> 0:12:25.200 advisor Doug Band said, as. 0:12:25.120 --> 0:12:27.360 John said, it doesn't get any better than this. 0:12:27.800 --> 0:12:31.240 The message was sent to Hillary Clinton, aide whom Aberdeen, Podesta, 0:12:31.280 --> 0:12:36.120 and others. Podesta responded, nice. Now, any rational person could 0:12:36.200 --> 0:12:38.800 see that the exchange was about how great it was 0:12:38.840 --> 0:12:41.800 that two captive journalists were now free and enjoying a 0:12:41.840 --> 0:12:47.520 meal with their child. That many of these online saluts 0:12:47.679 --> 0:12:52.440 suggested something far darker was happening. The Internet detectives used 0:12:52.480 --> 0:12:56.160 these strained connections to pizza to conclude that perhaps food 0:12:56.320 --> 0:13:00.280 was being used as code words. Others referenced to an FBI 0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:04.600 document published by WikiLeaks subtitled Symbols and Logos used by 0:13:04.600 --> 0:13:09.319 Pedophiles to Identify Sexual Preferences. In it, the document states quote, 0:13:09.400 --> 0:13:14.040 pedophiles are using various types of identification logos or symbols 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:17.840 to recognize one another and distinguish their sexual preferences. The 0:13:17.920 --> 0:13:21.640 Internet detectives started to believe that if pedophiles are using 0:13:21.679 --> 0:13:25.679 symbols to communicate to one another, then perhaps Hillary Clinton's 0:13:25.679 --> 0:13:30.000 campaign manager and by extension, Hillary were using pedophile codes 0:13:30.080 --> 0:13:34.720 when referencing pizza. As this idea spread online, theory turned 0:13:34.720 --> 0:13:38.040 to fact, and the sleuths continued looking for more hidden 0:13:38.040 --> 0:13:40.840 messages in the emails, and in a matter of days, 0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:45.160 the conspiracy theory snowballed from an online phenomenon to harassment 0:13:45.360 --> 0:13:46.400 in the real world. 0:13:50.640 --> 0:13:53.200 There's nothing more that makes me happier than putting on 0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:55.880 a fire, propping up my feet, popping on a movie, 0:13:56.000 --> 0:13:58.400 and curling up next to the love of my life. 0:13:58.720 --> 0:14:03.520 That being licorice from the Licorice Guy. I'm listening to 0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:06.440 RPA for some time. Then you know that licorice is 0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:09.120 my jam and that it does not get any better 0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:12.000 than the gourmet licorice made by the Licorice Guy. They 0:14:12.040 --> 0:14:16.320 have a great selection of flavors to choose from, like red, blue, raspberry, black, 0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:19.080 and green apple, just to name a few. The freshness 0:14:19.080 --> 0:14:22.400 of a licorice will blow your mind. Seriously, if you 0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:25.080 haven't tried licorice from the Licorice Guy yet, then you 0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:28.640 ain't living life right. Trust me, you will not regret it. 0:14:28.640 --> 0:14:30.960 It's time to dump that store bought liquorice that's so 0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:34.280 hard it'll break your teeth and get yourself the soft, 0:14:34.440 --> 0:14:37.400 fresh stuff from the Licorice Guy. What I also love 0:14:37.440 --> 0:14:40.120 about the Liquorice Guy is that it's an American family 0:14:40.160 --> 0:14:43.240 owned business.

So internet sloths began to lean into this 0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:13.480 theory that Podesta and his cohorts were using pedophile coded 0:15:13.560 --> 0:15:17.680 language when mentioning pizza. As this idea spread online, theory 0:15:17.760 --> 0:15:21.080 turned to fact, and the sloths continued looking for more 0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:24.680 hidden messages in the emails and even those connected to them. 0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:28.640 Once sleuth connected the phrase cheese pizza directly to pedophiles, 0:15:28.680 --> 0:15:31.680 who are known to use the initial CP on chatboards 0:15:31.720 --> 0:15:35.600 to denote child pornography, cheese pizza and child pornography share 0:15:35.640 --> 0:15:38.920 the same initials, as urged by the Info Wars guest 0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:43.240 pizza became a focus within the Podesta emails. Sloths noted 0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:46.520 that John Podesta corresponded with the owner of a Washington, 0:15:46.560 --> 0:15:49.720 DC pizza rhea called Comet Ping Pong, a gay man 0:15:49.800 --> 0:15:53.800 named James Alafhontas, who was connected to Democratic fundraisers and 0:15:53.920 --> 0:15:58.440 once dated David Brock. Brock was the notorious Democrat political 0:15:58.440 --> 0:16:02.920 operative and founder of Media Matters, the nonprofit purportedly dedicated 0:16:02.960 --> 0:16:07.200 to taking down right wing media that spread misinformation. Another 0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:09.880 sleuth noted that one of the logos on the FBI 0:16:10.000 --> 0:16:13.280 document was similar to a ping pong paddle icon used 0:16:13.320 --> 0:16:16.520 on the Comet Ping Pong menu. Alex Jones leaned into 0:16:16.520 --> 0:16:17.640 this hidden code theory. 0:16:17.760 --> 0:16:19.080 I don't know if you've been through it all, but 0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:21.200 do you see this stuff with They're like, well, I 0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:23.840 want more hot dogs than Hamburger, and I don't know 0:16:23.880 --> 0:16:25.920 if I want that many nuts in the sauce, and 0:16:26.000 --> 0:16:28.720 nuts means black people. And they're like, well, I know, Podesta, 0:16:28.840 --> 0:16:31.760 you're a connoisseur of the right kind of you know, 0:16:31.920 --> 0:16:33.360 you know, pasta sauce. 0:16:33.160 --> 0:16:34.840 But do you really want this many nuts? 0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:39.800 Now I'm having to learn this is standard pedophile nomenclacier. 0:16:39.960 --> 0:16:41.280 What the hell? 0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:45.480 And they are talking about child pornography, they're talking about 0:16:45.560 --> 0:16:46.480 human trafficking. 0:16:46.680 --> 0:16:50.840 They got kids disappearing from Haiti. The Clintons are vacationing 0:16:50.840 --> 0:16:54.560 in Haiti, They're running child kidnapping rings. Folks, Hillary's involved, 0:16:54.600 --> 0:16:57.240 of course she is. Look at that big, dominant, crazy 0:16:57.320 --> 0:17:00.160 joker face. Man, That woman's a frickin' hell hound. 0:17:00.520 --> 0:17:04.280 Right up to the election, Anthony Wiener's laptop will reveal 0:17:04.600 --> 0:17:09.040 evidence of an international child sex trafficking ring tied to 0:17:09.200 --> 0:17:12.440 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. 0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:15.960 On the eve of election Day twenty sixteen, the hashtag 0:17:16.040 --> 0:17:20.040 pizzagate was born. The slouths began tagging their findings with 0:17:20.119 --> 0:17:24.159 the new pizzagate hashtag. The theory began to snowball catching 0:17:24.200 --> 0:17:27.560 not only comet ping Pong, but also a neighboring pizzeria, 0:17:27.720 --> 0:17:30.520 and even bands that performed at the restaurant were implicated. 0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:33.840 Anything that looked ambiguous that was connected to comet ping 0:17:33.920 --> 0:17:36.919 Pong or the word pizza got swept into the theory. 0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:41.040 When someone emailed John Podesta seemingly joking about being stuck 0:17:41.119 --> 0:17:43.960 in a torture chamber, it became a sign that children 0:17:44.000 --> 0:17:47.080 were being abused. Artwork on the walls of comet ping 0:17:47.160 --> 0:17:51.480 Pong were being interpreted as satanic. Anything that conspiracy sloths 0:17:51.720 --> 0:17:55.520 considered weird got expanded into signs of an elite child 0:17:55.560 --> 0:18:00.040 trafficking ring. Orchestrated by Hillary Clinton and John Podesta, all 0:18:00.160 --> 0:18:05.400 hidden in plain sight. Kill rooms, underground tunnels, satanic rituals, 0:18:05.600 --> 0:18:08.560 and even cannibalism were thought to be housed at Comet 0:18:08.560 --> 0:18:19.480 Ping Pong. The owner of the pizzeria reportedly began receiving 0:18:19.520 --> 0:18:23.080 death threats, but after weeks of speculation, no one had 0:18:23.119 --> 0:18:26.200 simply gone to the restaurant to check it out. Activist 0:18:26.280 --> 0:18:31.320 Jack Posobic appears to have been the first. On November sixteenth, 0:18:31.320 --> 0:18:34.879 twenty sixteen, Jack made what he said was the short 0:18:34.960 --> 0:18:38.080 drive to Comic Ping Pong and live streamed his infiltration. 0:18:38.840 --> 0:18:44.440 So let's go take a look. Shall we Comet Pizza? 0:18:44.560 --> 0:18:45.040 Here we go? 0:18:47.680 --> 0:18:49.320 He and a friend asked for a table. 0:18:49.400 --> 0:18:50.359 Ah, Hi, don't you please. 0:18:50.920 --> 0:18:52.960 The two were seated in the back of the restaurant, 0:18:53.480 --> 0:18:56.920 but not long after ordering, they were approached by the manager. 0:18:57.080 --> 0:18:58.520 Ome on, guys, I'm gonna come back. I think we're 0:18:58.520 --> 0:18:59.280 burning to a part time. 0:18:59.480 --> 0:19:02.280 He discovered Jack was live streaming and had a problem 0:19:02.320 --> 0:19:10.879 with the attention the activist was bringing to the pizzeria. 0:19:11.000 --> 0:19:13.959 I understand that I understand that to you this is 0:19:14.040 --> 0:19:14.920 maybe like a game. 0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:19.320 But considering that I, myself and my staff received death threats. 0:19:19.600 --> 0:19:22.240 It's it's not a game, it's not anything. 0:19:22.760 --> 0:19:24.720 I can't control what somebody posts on the. 0:19:24.680 --> 0:19:26.600 Internet with them, Jack was asked to leave. 0:19:26.920 --> 0:19:29.560 You're well, you're throwing me out. 0:19:30.119 --> 0:19:35.000 I am because because you're you are aiding, you're aiding 0:19:35.040 --> 0:19:36.120 a dangerous sivility. 0:19:36.400 --> 0:19:38.720 With the help of law enforcement, Jack and his friend 0:19:38.720 --> 0:19:39.760 were escorted out. 0:19:39.960 --> 0:19:43.359 Wow, so thrown out of Comet Pizza. 0:19:43.680 --> 0:19:47.240 You guys will notice that I've not actually tweeted about 0:19:47.480 --> 0:19:52.640 Comet Pizza before that, I've not actually done anything about 0:19:52.760 --> 0:19:56.880 Comic Pizza. I specifically said, what was going on? Why 0:19:56.880 --> 0:19:59.160 are we being thrown out? And he said, well, you're 0:19:59.280 --> 0:20:01.639 contributing to an alt right conspiracy theory. 0:20:01.760 --> 0:20:04.960 But after being booted from the pizzeria, Jack started to 0:20:05.040 --> 0:20:06.600 express new suspicions. 0:20:06.800 --> 0:20:10.520 They've got eyes on me, They've got eyes on anybody 0:20:10.560 --> 0:20:14.159 that's coming into Comment Pizza. So I am putting out 0:20:14.160 --> 0:20:18.000 the call right now, guys, James O'Keefe, we need you 0:20:18.040 --> 0:20:20.400 in here. I'm gonna need your help on this one man. 0:20:21.240 --> 0:20:23.639 This is an operation that suddenly just got a little 0:20:23.640 --> 0:20:25.480 bit bigger than just myself. 0:20:25.640 --> 0:20:28.440 We need people in here at a higher level. 0:20:28.480 --> 0:20:30.920 We need to recruit sub sources to go in here 0:20:31.160 --> 0:20:36.120 with hidden cameras because we saw a secret back room. 0:20:36.320 --> 0:20:37.479 People were going in and out of there. 0:20:37.480 --> 0:20:38.840 There's music, there were kids. 0:20:39.119 --> 0:20:41.080 There were little kids going in and out of this 0:20:41.160 --> 0:20:42.399 back and. 0:20:42.440 --> 0:20:43.240 This is this is a bar. 0:20:43.440 --> 0:20:45.040 This is nine o'clock at night on how. 0:20:44.880 --> 0:20:45.600 Many days since? 0:20:45.600 --> 0:20:46.960 When are kids allowed to be in a bar? 0:20:47.040 --> 0:20:49.200 It's weird in the first place, it's weird. 0:20:49.240 --> 0:20:50.840 So there's there's kids. You can see him on my 0:20:50.880 --> 0:20:53.240 earlier scope that that are in this bar. And I 0:20:53.800 --> 0:20:57.520 don't know in my impressions, you know, I don't think 0:20:57.520 --> 0:20:59.520 that kids were allowed to go in bars at all. 0:20:59.760 --> 0:21:01.960 I don't understand what it is that they have to 0:21:02.040 --> 0:21:05.680 hide there. But we saw a secret room in the 0:21:05.800 --> 0:21:09.800 very far back of this place, and we saw little 0:21:09.880 --> 0:21:11.560 kids going in and out, three. 0:21:11.480 --> 0:21:12.160 Kids at least. 0:21:12.520 --> 0:21:15.359 And he disappeared and they disappeared. 0:21:15.560 --> 0:21:18.480 The threat level here is much higher, much higher than 0:21:18.520 --> 0:21:21.000 I thought it would be. There are people here that 0:21:21.119 --> 0:21:23.679 have a lot of interests and a lot of money, 0:21:23.840 --> 0:21:26.840 So they have a big secret that they are trying 0:21:26.880 --> 0:21:29.800 to hide because it could potentially blow the lid on 0:21:29.920 --> 0:21:35.119 Hillary Clinton, on John Podesta. 0:21:33.640 --> 0:21:37.879 Others followed in Jack's footsteps. Pizzagate investigators jumped from the 0:21:37.920 --> 0:21:41.960 comment sections and internet forums into the real world, traveling 0:21:41.960 --> 0:21:49.119 to comment Ping Pong to investigate recording all along the way. 0:21:53.560 --> 0:21:54.760 Came out away from Philadelphia. 0:21:57.640 --> 0:21:59.360 I came away from Philadelphia to be here. 0:21:59.440 --> 0:22:01.959 It was one thing to deal with this conspiracy theory 0:22:02.119 --> 0:22:05.200 on social media or through phone calls, but it was 0:22:05.240 --> 0:22:08.080 an entirely new level dealing with them in real life. 0:22:08.680 --> 0:22:11.200 The uproar got so loud that the owner of Comet 0:22:11.240 --> 0:22:15.560 Ping Pong, James Alafantas, approached protesters, hoping to convince them 0:22:15.600 --> 0:22:17.240 that nothing torrid was occurring. 0:22:17.440 --> 0:22:19.480 We have undreds of here all the time, and I 0:22:20.040 --> 0:22:27.680 love children, I love you, and we love our community. 0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:33.359 Alafantis asked them to come inside to check out for themselves, 0:22:33.600 --> 0:22:35.600 but oddly they turned him down. 0:22:36.440 --> 0:22:37.119 I don't want to come in. 0:22:37.160 --> 0:22:39.120 I do have hundreds of people come here every day. 0:22:39.280 --> 0:22:42.080 I want to know what's up with that rude that 0:22:42.160 --> 0:22:45.680 is apparently from your place and people and people say. 0:22:46.240 --> 0:22:51.160 They went from just asking questions to not really wanting answers. Finally, 0:22:51.320 --> 0:22:54.320 Alafantis convinced one to take a tour inside. 0:22:55.720 --> 0:22:56.679 I can show your routes. 0:22:58.200 --> 0:23:01.840 This is where we turn the lives on. 0:23:04.960 --> 0:23:08.800 Alafontis. Took him through the entire restaurant, the front, the kitchen, 0:23:08.880 --> 0:23:11.159 the ping pong area, the birthday party. 0:23:10.960 --> 0:23:21.280 Room, kids party room, birthday parties come on in. 0:23:23.119 --> 0:23:26.440 After touring the entire space, it was nothing, no kill room, 0:23:26.600 --> 0:23:29.760 no tunnels, no torture chamber. There wasn't even a basement. 0:23:30.040 --> 0:23:32.880
