In this episode, Alex starts by talking about how the RFK Jr. saga continues. Just as he endorsed Donald Trump and Tulsi Gabbard followed (Alex rants about that too), an old article has resurfaced that described RFK Jr. using a chainsaw to cut off the head of a beached whale before transporting it back to his house after a family vacation in Massachusetts. For the rest of the episode, Alex breaks down the recent arrest in Paris of Pavel Durov. He is the founder and CEO of Telegram. It is one of the most decentralized and unmoderated messaging platforms on the internet. Many countries have said Telegram violated their laws over reporting misconduct and illicit activity (including drug trafficking and the usage of illegal child images). Alex tries to wade through the chaos of this story and understand why some are angry about the arrest of Durov and why others think it was necessary.
