EP#253 | DSD | End-of-Year Reflections, Missing Congresswoman, Carter’s Legacy & COVID Origins
📄 Episode Overview
In Episode #253 of Deep Shallow Dive, Ray Doustdar wraps up 2024 with a rapid-fire reflection on major stories, personal milestones, and institutional corruption. From Congresswoman Kay Granger disappearing into a memory care facility without anyone batting an eye, to the real legacy of Jimmy Carter, and Elon Musk going unhinged over H1B visas, Ray ends the year with sharp insights and sharper questions. He also revisits the COVID lab-leak debate, drops clips from Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, and reminds listeners of how consistent the message has been—even when the messenger changes.
🧠 Key Takeaways
• Ray recorded 170 podcast episodes in 2024—more than double his 2023 total. • Congresswoman Kay Granger (R-TX) was discovered living in a dementia facility while still being paid and listed as an active legislator. • Staff, family, and party members stayed silent about her condition—Ray demands accountability and repayment of her salary. • The incident reflects broader government dysfunction, echoing the Dianne Feinstein situation before her death. • Former President Jimmy Carter’s legacy is mixed: Ray blames him for Iran’s political downfall, but praises his honesty about Palestine. • In a 2007 clip, Carter condemned Israeli actions in Gaza and warned U.S. politicians were too scared to speak out. • Ray revisits H1B visa debates, showing how Elon Musk praised the program—but then flipped out online, undermining his own credibility. • Ray believes Elon is a triple-agent: controlled by deeper forces while pretending to fight them. • A Tucker Carlson clip lays out evidence that Dr. Fauci and others committed perjury about COVID’s origin in the Wuhan lab. • The Candace Owens CIA interview reveals MLK was likely targeted by the intelligence community for being a “dangerous communist.”
