here in this house and our broadcast come to you live from not so sunny I well
actually kind of sunny Chicago Illinois ladies and gentlemen boys girls and
ambies were live and alive here in Chicago Illinois new house new house
alert new crib who days
I'm so playing here in this house and our broadcast coming to you live from
I'm a sunny Chicago out here in the Midwest, baby.
You already know what it is.
One of my favorite places to visit.
I'm live, I'm alive in the windy city.
It's actually really hot in this hotel room right now.
Well, sorry, this is my new home.
This is my new home.
It was rainy earlier, but it's sunny now.
It was raining when I first walked in to Chicago,
but it's actually kinda,
I gotta fix this freaking camera angle, dude.
What the heck are you?
What the hell are you on, Dave?
Oh, hold on.
One second.
Can we like lower it a little bit?
Sorry, I just,
and then zoom out.
Got better.
Perhaps.
Perhaps a little bit better.
Uh, anyway, Chicago, Chicago, ladies and gentlemen, folks, boys, girls, MBS is, it says it's
48 degrees of windy here in Chicago, but it's hot as a frick.
I don't want to curse.
I was cursing quite a bit at the airport earlier today, so I don't want to curse.
Um, but in any case is, uh,
I'm live, I'm alive and you better not step foot in water. Okay.
It's, uh, it's, it's wonderful. This is part of the broadcast where I tell you about my personal news about what's going on in the world of a San Jose, Navi, Piker,
uh, in between the time period where I press the stop sharing button and press the start sharing button. So help me God. That's what I'm gonna do right now. It's, uh,
It's obviously, it's, it's, it's a Saturday, March 7th, 2026, 1233 p.m. Pacific time and
it's actually 233 p.m. Chicago time and I am live.
And this is part of the broadcast where I tell you about my personal news about what's
going on in the world of Hassan Haas and I'm a piker in between the time period
press the stop streaming button and press the stop streaming button. So help me God.
What is this? This is an opportunity. I don't know if you know this person, but it could
be a great opportunity. If you're an opportunity for foreign journals to go to Iran and report
on the US line is more of aggression. Yeah. Um, Shatter, I don't know how to explain
this to you, but like America and Israel are currently bombing the country. Okay.
So that's going to be, that's going to, it's going to be a little bit difficult for me to
find my way to Iran.
I am, you know, I, I go to areas like there's a level of conflict that I can deal with.
I just don't think that this is, this might go a little bit beyond that level of conflict.
Is that okay?
know. But in any case, bro, you should tour North Korea, I'd much rather go to North Korea
than Iran, let's be real, North Korea has nuclear arms and is not currently being bombed by
the Zionist entity. So yeah, as long as I don't steal, like, I don't know, like a poster
or something. Anyway, have you seen what happened to BenchBer's eyebrows? It's not a drill.
That's fake. It's a fake video. It's AI video or not AI video, but like a Photoshop. Anyway,
ladies and gentlemen, boys, girls and eddies, this is part of the broadcast where I tell
you about my personal news about what's going on in the world of Ozana. So I'm going
to be part of your time period where Princess Star is streaming, but and Princess
storage room button. So help me God. And that's exactly what I'm gonna do. So end of the broadcast
yesterday as you guys know, went to sleep shortly thereafter woke up super early in the morning
don't really have a lot of I haven't had a lot of sleep. That's the third time I'm
saying it. Yeah, you might have noticed that I haven't slept a lot. You might have
noticed that I have not slept a lot. And that's probably not good because I have
to be up and ready to go, ready to rise to the occasion in a couple hours when I
deliver a speech at Northwest University in front of the students. And
Mike Cumb is a surprise to all of you, but I didn't prepare anything. And I
I also don't have a sound board.
He's like, right now be hitting the five.
Okay, perfect conditions for okay, buddy.
Okay, you need to fucking calm down.
In any case, where was I?
So, yeah, we'll go with like 4 a.m.
Went to LAX, we're flying to Chicago, O'Hare, right?
the flight of Chicago O'Hare. Now here's the issue. The airline that I used for the flight
in at least is American. And the problem with that is that American is both on the Tom Bradley
International terminal, but it's also on terminal four. Now, these two terminals are close to
one another. So I'm like, all right, it's, you know, it's the ticket says terminal three,
but it was a, you know, online checking ahead of time, you know, it's a stable ticket. It's
not one of those like that just updates, right? So we go to fucking terminal, terminal four.
It says on the ticket, it says terminal four. So I'm, I'm like, all right, whatever,
terminal four, we walk and for those of you who don't know LA X, you got to walk
Underneath the runway. It's like really long and annoying whatever, right?
It's like approximately like a 15 to 20 minute walk and as you guys know I make a habit not to check in my luggage
Because I have a lot of sensitive electronic equipment and
Therefore I have to carry it on so I have to carry it everywhere with me
Now the problem is, that's just heavy, it takes a toll.
We finally barely make it, right before boarding time.
I walk up to the gate that we're supposed to be at and it says Dallas, Fort Worth, Texas.
I'm like, oh fuck, I'm looking at my ticket, I'm looking up at the gate, gate's telling
me something entirely different.
people going to Texas at the gate. I'm like, what the hell's going on? Turns out they changed
the goddamn gate. They changed the goddamn gate to Tom Bradley international terminal.
So we had to walk through that tunnel, walk under the runway once again with like literally
no time to spare, barely made it by the end of boarding. Got on the plane immediately
fucking knocked out. No lie flat. I'm obviously, you know, bougie bitch.
Gate change. I'm sweating more than anyone has ever sweat in the history of sweat. I am the
wettest from the standpoint of water. Okay. I am the wettest from the standpoint of water.
I'm the wettest from the standpoint of sweat. No one has ever been as porous. No one
has ever been as leaky. No one's ever lactated as hard as me. And I'm like, and I know there's
like a lot of fans when I'm at the airport, right? Like how do people come up and they're
like, Oh my God, it's on like TSA guys come up TSA guy. When I was going in, looks up
and he goes, what are you going to be doing? Pre-check and turn to him and I go, the
government took it away from me. He turns around and goes, well, the government took
go away my salary, which is true. Currently the department of Homeland security is, is
not funded. And of course, instead of rerouting the funds from the expensive ice budgets back
to like the bravest warriors of all time, the, the TSA, uh, Hassan Abi has there. You
know, they're still giving it to the fattest Nazis you've ever seen. So he grievance
smog my ass. And you know, I was like, well, you're right about that. That's right. The
DHS is not funding you guys. That's devastating. So anyway, back and forth, run in, get into
the flight, knock the freak out, wake up in between, think I'm going to read some,
books. Don't read any books at all. Immediately dive into my phone. Immediately I'm monitoring
the situation. I'm monitoring the situation. Situations are being monitored from the standpoint
of situation monitoring. This is the most situations I've ever been monitored.
Get off the plane. Get in a car. Get to the hodl. Took my morning dump later than
unusual, unfortunately. And took a shower. And here we are. And that's the reason why
I'm late. So I apologize. I was I was late because I was flying. I was flying from Los
Angeles to to Illinois. Hold on one second. Um, wait, hold on.
I might be getting a big update here one second.
Sorry, situations are being monitored.
So yeah, any plans on IRL today?
Yes, dude.
I'm going to go to Northwestern campus,
and I'm going to be speaking at Northwestern University
in front of Northwestern students.
You ever notice in the airline
to prove the story to the class?
Do you expect us to believe it?
No, I mean, I don't expect you to believe it.
I'm lying.
I'm lying to all of you.
Do you have the emotional energy after all this for the speech?
It's not the emotion.
It's just that I'm legitimately tired.
And I just realized, I just said it, how tired I am.
What's the fit going to be?
The fit's going to be pretty basic today.
It's not going to be anything crazy.
I'm not wearing a big suit or anything.
wearing the black mouse suit that I have, not the gray one,
but students who may soon be drafted.
Yeah, we got something for that.
So yeah.
Would you ever talk to Brandon Scott of Baltimore?
Yeah, he's dope.
I'm a big fan of his.
You know, he cut down homicides pretty big.
Um, so he's cool.
In any case, um, yeah, that's all I got.
I could get you connected.
Okay.
I'll be down.
do some. Okay, Chicago modern situation, Cuba under threat, Magaluz is worn out burger like
Northwestern speech later. Big year in airport hit. Damn, water desalination plan in Iran
hit. Iran strikes back. President of Iran says something that doesn't make any sense. Anyway,
do we have a, do we have a blast-off meme chatters?
Do we have a blast-off meme?
You got a meme. Thank you. Hold on. I'm also literally, I'm also doing stuff here on the business deal side. Did you hear that Iran's threatening to consider UK bases as valve military bases?
Dude, they got smoke for everybody, man. They got smoke for everybody. They're crazy.
Alright. I'm blasting off. We're live. We're alive. I need like 54 more espresso shots
to be able to get through this, hopefully. As much as we miss you, you gotta take a
day off once in a while, but we're locked in now. Brother, I can't take a day off
while it's situation monitoring time. It's the worst time to take a day off, partially
because of the memes of like, oh, Hasan takes the day off and then nukes get launched. And
then also because like this is, I think maybe I overestimate my own impact, but I do legitimately
think that in the little space that I occupy on the internet, in the grand sea of misinformation,
I feel like someone's got to parse through all this stuff.
And it's not just for you guys in here in general, but like, I truly do feel like there
isn't a lot of coverage on things that are going on, on that side of the world that
actually humanizes the quote-unquote enemy, you know what I mean? That actually sees the
people that were bombing as human beings. And there are so many news outlets that simply
treat Iran or even the Gulf, Palestinians, Lebanese people, Hezbollah, like everyone
as like barbaric monsters that need to be forcibly tamed with the might of American weaponry.
And that's part of the reason why I want to, you know, that's part of the reason why my
coverage stays on.
No matter what, because I, you know, I have, I know people there.
I have sources.
I have, I, you know, I talk to people.
have to take days off chatters he doesn't do anything to cover the news in tweet all
day it's not like he has other occupations to take care of that's true I also don't
have a life I'm a whole ass loser so that's probably the other reason why it's it's
much easier for me to continue doing this my family's greed was to be between Turks
Greeks never understood it. We destroyed Byzantine Empire and took over Constantinople to the capital
and turned it into Istanbul. That's pretty big beef.
Also, the Ottoman Empire was an empire, was a colonial occupant of the Greeks for a very long
time. So, you know, that's probably, you know, good reason. There's a decent level of subjugation
that took place outside of, decent level of subjugation that took place outside of like
the overall humiliation. Because like, in my experience, one thing I will say is like,
like Christians do have a tendency to never forget when a non-Christian offends them, when
a non-Christian dominates them, you know what I mean?
I do think that that adds insult to injury a little bit, like, because Christians fight
among one another, amongst one another all the time, and like whatever, you know, they're
just like brotherly bonding, but ultimately they can get back together under the same
banner, Catholics versus Protestants, Christians, you know, French versus the British versus the
German, all of that good stuff. But like when it's a, when it's an outsider force like the Ottomans
who are Muslim, and they're doing the domination, it's like an alien force that came into their
lands and dominated them. And there's definitely a lot of, of additional anger and additional
animosity that that you know comes along with that yeah I've seen this this is
funny new levels of situation monitoring unlocked here this is me this is
literally this is how I be monitored in this situation bro cypress is not our
religion no I don't think it's just religion I don't I don't think it's
just really I'm saying that like the reason why the the Europeans have
referred to the reason why the Europeans have referred to the Ottomans as the
sick man of Europe is for that reason. Anyway, can you teach us how to invest in
China? Bitch, I don't know how to invest in China. I don't even invest. How am I
supposed to teach you how to invest or how to teach you how to invest in
China of all places. My family hates me because of you. Everybody
Candace. That's sad. Yeah, there's lots of reason why Greeks and Turks
have beef with one another. Lots of reasons.
Syria might be modernizing too quickly. I think their account is is
hacked. I thought this was Hentai, says the Syrian state government account. Black Lagoon
is not Hentai. However, there's a non-zero chance of Hentai getting posed by our member
Yuki. Link, I just want to make sure I'm reading this right, and the Syrian government
is asking us for Hentai links? No. Yeah. Wink, wink, we get you. What link would you
like it's okay we can provide lesbian hentai 18 to 21
ashia would never do this now she's getting
um oil prices will continue to rise yeah massive explosions in the rock oil depots in iran
uh you know the situation is being monitored and let me tell you it's not good
it's not good at all
It's nowhere near as good as you would think, but of course, Donald Trump and his fat cats
are already back on this side of the planet, talking about fucking up Cuba and any other
country that dares to democratically organize and decide to have any sort of autonomy or
sovereignty from American imperialism. So, it's fantastic, fantastic stuff overall.
We're going to get started because I don't have a lot of time before the speech.
So I'm going to get started here with US saying that they've hit 3000 targets in Iran.
Israel says they began a new wave of strikes in the capital city, video circulating online showing the moment one of those strikes hit a major airport, leaving it engulfed in flames.
Iran has been ramping up its retaliatory strikes throughout the week. On Friday, fire scene erupted at US logistics offices and warehouses in Iraq after an Iranian drone strike.
And in Kuwait, Iranian missile debris igniting this fire at a military base where U.S. troops
are stationed, no injuries have been reported.
But this morning, in a televised address, the president of Iran apologizing to its neighbors,
saying there will be no more attacks on neighboring countries and no missile launches, unless
attacks originate from those countries against Iran.
Also responding to Trump's call for surrender, saying the U.S. and Israel quote, will
take their dreams of us surrendering unconditionally to the grave.
in an alarming new development. Sources telling ABC News, the U S believes Russia has been providing
intelligence to Iran involving the locations of American troops, including aircraft and
ships in the region. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth responding to those claims in a preview
of an upcoming 60 minutes episode. Our commanders are aware of everything. We have the best
intelligence in the world. We're aware of who's talking to who, why they're talking
to him, how accurate that information might be, how we factor that into. When they
say they hit 3000 targets, not obviously not all of them are like painted targets or whatever
with like thermal paint, but a lot of the targets that they're hitting are just like
irrelevant targets. They're, they have the capacity to deteriorate, eventually deteriorate
the launch capabilities. They have the capacity more so than the deterioration of launch
capabilities to maintain complete air superiority over different parts of Iran. They haven't yet
established complete air superiority over the different parts of Iran. Part of the reason why
is because I've talked about it already. Iran has movable, like mobile defense systems. So when
the defense systems are not out and they're hidden, Americans can fly around. They have drones,
they have Reaper drones. Israel has their own version of the Reaper drone. I forget what it's
called like we have we have our own surveillance drones we have strike drones as well that can
loiter for a lot longer than like and you know like a fighter jet can uh it's still a very expensive
yeah the hermes thank you uh so it's still a very expensive drone it's a very expensive piece of
equipment and iranians have been able to take out multiple at this point i believe it's around
four, and numerous Israeli drones have been taken out as well. We don't know the actual numbers for
that. The Onside Allah is still the number one at drone targeting, but basically what America is
trying to do is alongside Israel, what they're trying to do is just like deteriorate Iran's
anti-air systems to the best of their ability, so then they can go scud hunting, right? Something
that we were able to do in Iraq fairly easily because Iraq is the terrain of Iraq is not
as good for hiding weapons systems as the Iranian terrain is. The topography of Iran is
mountainous and it's much easier to hide these weapons systems. It's much easier to move
them around. It's much easier to put them inside of caves. The Iranian topography makes it quite
difficult to engage in this kind of thing. But in order to even kickstart the process of Scott
Hunting, which will be an incredibly, incredibly expensive endeavor, regardless, which America
definitely has the offensive capabilities to do, make no mistake. They have to diminish the
Iranian anti-air systems. And that's the reason why they're constantly bombing right now. I'm sure
that they're trying to bomb the missile silos and things like that, but regardless of the fact
that they're trying to bomb the missile silos and the missile depots and where they make the
munitions in general, I don't think that they've had a good enough, I don't think they've
done a great job with that. Iranians are not launching the same severity of missiles since
like the first day of the conflict. However, having said that, they have a much, much higher
hit rate now with the missiles that they are launching when they do. So if you consider
like ballistic munitions, you know, 300 or so ballistic munitions fired in Israel's direction
or fired in general. The first day of the operation epic Fort Nijungas, right now they're hitting
like 35, right? But the hit rate has gone up so much that even if they were hitting 350,
they were you know their their hit rate was nowhere near as high so they're they're more effective and
more efficient with their strike capabilities however however i will say this like i said america
doesn't have enough in the tank or defensive weapons but they certainly do have a lot in
their offensive capabilities america is very very good at offensive uh i mean america's america
has virtually unlimited missiles, different types of weapons, different types of munitions
that they can deploy when it comes to offense. The reason why it's normally like a glass
cannon is because most of America's enemies are not people with like air forces or a
significant indigenous weapons manufacturing system, weapons manufacturing industry. Like
They, while Iran was basically designing their entire defenses against exactly what's happening.
America has designed its entire offense, not against what's happening in Iran, but more
so just like to constantly have permanent air cover over true positions in places like Afghanistan
and places like Iraq, where you can just like very quickly take out what exists. If there is
any air force at all, and then, you know, have complete air superiority over the entire land.
Iran is a different demon.
So, you know, that's the reason why they're having this hang up.
That's the reason why they're having a hard time dealing with it.
But in the process, they've killed a bunch of people. The death toll in Iran has gone up. I believe it's more than 1,200 people. Last time I checked is probably higher than that now.
And also the types of targets that America and Israel are striking have crossed new boundaries. New boundaries like a water desalination plant.
If you recall yesterday, I talked to you about how we were talking about like Iran's capabilities of
Withstanding a war of attrition, right?
And one of the things someone asked me is like, oh, what's their agricultural output look like?
And I told you that Iran is like a fairly self-sufficient country with one exception and that exception of course is water water is a major problem in this region
It's certainly not just a problem for Iran
It's it's an even bigger problem for the Gulf States where they have to have desalination plans
Without them. It's like you're not announced basically 60% of their freshwater supply. So
What is what what America did and what America seeks to do here, I think is
To collapse the Gulf in its entirety I
I don't think this is just about Iran I don't I if I were to think of like a higher ambition for America and all of this if this isn't just like Israel urging Trump to do something unimaginably stupid that's going to be you know tens of billions of well already tens of billions of hundreds of billions of dollars is not trillions of fucking dollars in
in expenditures at the best of Israel if I'm thinking like a longer term like what
could be the the grand project here maybe and this is what I wanted to ask the
the oil artists in my chat about a little bit because I don't fully
understand the refinery process I was thinking about this quite a bit last
like is now that the Republicans have openly started saying, we don't even give a shit about regime change. We just want the oil. It started, I started thinking like, well, they're not going to get the oil, right? So I wonder if they're just trying to get Iran to blow up all the refineries. And then they blow up Iranian refineries. And that's already happened today, by the way.
They blow up Iranian refineries, Iran retaliates, goes up the escalation ladder and hits the
nuclear option where Iran just like completely cripples the oil refinement processes in the
Gulf, right?
And then America is sitting on a massive stockpile, a massive natural reserve now in Venezuela
of heavy crude.
crude normally in the shale boom that we've had in the country, which is lighter, right?
Heavy crude is useless to us, at least as long as like the Gulf can continue facilitating
oil and gas to that side of the world, to the eastern side of the world, you know, the
Asian countries.
But now, if you just destroy the gulf, all of a sudden the price of the oil barrel, the
price of a singular barrel could be kept relatively stable and it would actually be very cost
effective for America to start refining heavy crude, which 70% of our refinement process
actually utilizes heavy crude.
So we just don't have heavy crude.
We've always taken it from other countries and I have a lot of heavy crude.
And now we have unlimited heavy crude from Venezuela.
So I wonder if that is the long term imperialist ambition of some of the Americans that are
looking at the situation and thinking, yeah, we just wait this out.
All of this market panic actually benefits us quite a bit.
Sure we lose our bases.
Sure we lose our weapons systems.
We lose our radar systems in the bay in the Gulf and we lose our Gulf partners
but we also destroy the Gulf in the process and
America becomes like
one of the sole oil providers to the Asian markets
Which is pretty big because then we're the sole oil provider for China
Hassan is making shit up as he goes wait what?
Did you just not listen to what I'm saying? This is like, I'm saying this might be America's like 5d chess. I don't understand. Wait, what?
I don't understand. These guys don't even come in here and like listen to anything
Uh, that I'm talking about. They just are like Hasan is lying to you all if fucking sucks
This will be a massacre never take war news from progressive because war is ugly and gross
Really, I hate everything about the us, but I know what awaits we can afford a trillion dollar defense budget
But not food healthcare or housing. Hasan is just making shit up as he goes
That's such a strange way to respond to what I'm talking about.
Now, the reason why I said I need to hear from the oil autist is because I might be totally
off base here, because like I know that the type of oil that comes from the Gulf is different.
It's not heavy crude, right?
This was a big problem for Venezuela, if you believe the analysts, right?
That's the reason why Venezuela's market collapsed.
It was a single resource economy, sure, that's fair, but also on top of that, it was heavy
crude and no one wanted to work with heavy crude.
But that I feel like, that I feel like could be one of the angles, because like, when,
if you recall, we were reading so many different articles at the time when America was moving
on Venezuela and all these big thinkers were like, well, America doesn't want to invade
Venezuela for oil, even though Trump was like, I'm invading Venezuela for oil.
Like I want the oil of Venezuela.
I don't give a shit about anything else.
I just want the oil.
Fuck you.
And everyone was like, no, no, because if America's sat on top of like the world's largest,
you know, natural, known natural reserves in Venezuela, technically this would destroy
the domestic oil manufacturing in the United States of America, okay, which is true.
There is truth to that.
was to just lean into the heavy crew that they're getting and start refining heavy
crew and start importing, I'm sorry, start selling a fuck ton of heavy crewed.
This would be beneficial for Chevron and the long run and Exxon and the long run, but
it would destroy like the small business oil frackers.
Like it would straight up destroy a big part of the Texas economy, right?
Because like in many parts of this country, it sounds funny when you say it like that,
small business frackers. That's a real thing, right? Like, that doesn't mean that they're
literally a small business like a mom and pop shop, but there are much smaller frackers
out there, right? And you have the giants, but in the United States of America, you
also have with the expansion of oil extraction with fracking, you have a lot of like smaller
independent operations that are a big part of the Texas economy is a big part of the American economy.
And that is how we got energy independence, right? So what I feel like,
what I, what I feel like is, you know, that at the time, everyone was like,
doesn't make sense. What the fuck are we going to do with Venezuela's oil? Because if we produce
too much oil, then the price of the barrel goes down and then no one's making money because it
has to sit at that like what, $60. You remember how Giannis and I were talking about this?
Where the price of a barrel has to sit in that like 60 to 70 comfortable range where the prices
are low enough for the consumer, but they're high enough so that there's profits to be made.
right? If it dips below that because we're overproducing, it's great for the
consumers, but it's horrible for the businesses, it's no longer profitable. So
then they are not under normal market conditions incentivized to continue
their operations, they go out of business. Okay. So, there's also LNG obviously, but
for the record, I do want to say something. This doesn't mean it's going to succeed. It
also certainly doesn't mean that in the interim, there's going to be less blood and
less destruction. No, there's going to be maximum blood, maximum death, maximum destruction.
And on top of that, there's no guarantee that this will work. Because if Iran can hold out
and open up like a supply line with Russia or China, and then China turns Iran into
like their Korea or not Korea, sorry, their Ukraine style proxy against the American
and Israeli forces, and they just keep steadily supplying them in the same way that like America
and the Western world supplies Ukraine to defend and to cause attrition to the Russian
forces. If China were to do that, I'm not so certain that America would get out of
that equation a fat W, right?
The problem is shutting down the Gulf oil production in its entirety would be possibly beneficial
to Israel and Israel's design, Israel's psychotic design in the region, right? And it destabilized
Iran in the process. Fantastic for Israel, right? Then they can move on to Turkey and
continue taking out like every single fucking Muslim country in the region.
Right. If they're fighting one another, it's even better for Israel.
The issue is there is not a lot of,
it's just not a guarantee at all,
especially considering what's currently happening with the fucking oil markets,
what's currently happening in the energy markets.
But hey, what are you going to do?
The American government is basically directly under Israeli ownership, so what are we supposed
to do?
And the IDF has openly stated that they are going up the escalation ladder and striking
Iranian oil depots in an effort to provoke a response from Iran that strikes the oil
depots of the Gulf. Here's a photo of a massive oil explosion in the rock oil
depots in Iran. They're also, I don't know, there's, they're, they're, they're, they
also hit a desalination plant. US hit a water desalination plant to provoke a
response from Iran. They hit the water desalination plant of the Gulf. The
The gulf eats it, America and Israel hit Iran, and then Iran in an effort to retaliate retaliates
against the gulf.
But if they retaliate too hard against the gulf, then they can't achieve their political
goals because their political goal is the full retreat of American assets from the
region.
Right?
Their full, their military goals here are to basically make the region so unstable
for American troops that they have to fucking pull out. It's too costly. There's not a lot
of political appetite for it at the domestic level in America. And, and, and, you know,
take out Israeli defenses in the process, make Israel more vulnerable in the process, all
the better, right? Deplete America's munitions, deplete Israel's munitions and defense batteries.
And then eventually, eventually, oil nerd, if you want some perspective, you want an explanation
of China's oil position, TLDR, we're screwed, China isn't, I don't know, I mean, they can
rely on Russia, right?
That's what you mean.
Oil autos, destroying the Gulf's refining capacity would bring the world into a global
recession.
Not that much thought has gone into it.
TLDR, the US simply doesn't have the refining capacity to replace Gulf refining capacity and not even close.
There is no long-term planning here other than sucking Israel's dick.
Yeah, I'm just saying, no matter how insane this is, I feel like that's the only logical
through line I can come up with to offer a materialist perspective beyond Americans or fucking cattle.
Battle plans. The Pentagon says the US has now struck more than 3,000 targets in Iran.
with the world's largest aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald R. Ford, moving into the Red Sea.
And as questions mount as to whether there will be American boots on the ground,
in another side of potential escalation, multiple officials telling ABC News,
the Army abruptly canceled a major training exercise for a unit of the 82nd Airborne Division
that oversees deployments. The 82nd Airborne is the Pentagon's premier ground combat unit,
fueling speculation that they may be getting ready to deploy to the Middle East,
if needed. But official stress there are no orders to deploy right now.
The scope of the war only growing larger and on to a second front as Israel expands its strikes
deeper into Lebanon. Waging war on the Iranian-backed proxy group Hasbulla, bombs winging out in Beirut
throughout Friday. So you can see there the explosion right there. You can see the explosion
and there is the sound. It takes a little bit for the sound to travel. Obviously you see the
explosion first then the sound reaches us that is the latest strike and what has
been strike after strike after strike all day long hundreds of thousands now
forced to escape after the Israeli military issued evacuation orders in the
area and this morning new details on that horrific strike on a girl's school
in southern Iran that Iran says left 168 people dead as the US
investigating why are we now saying that the administration is controlled by
Israel isn't the power dynamics still favorite Trump here one phone call
away, right? Yes. It's always been one phone call away. I'm just saying this admin doesn't,
the previous admin was never making that phone call because they're psychos. And the current
admin is also not making that phone call because they're fucking psychos. That's the
whole point.
Like make no mistake, there is no like Jewish hypnosis beam or something. Okay. They're
Like whatever, whatever Nazis say about the dynamic between American Israel, uh, unless you are just simply reflecting on, uh, the, the, not necessarily power dynamic, but the influence capabilities of Israel.
Like if you're talking about the, the influence capabilities of Israel, it's a very sophisticated network.
Um, and it's also obviously very successful.
Right.
But there is no like,
Like at the end of the fucking day. Yeah, there is no goi beam
Okay, there's no
There's no monolithic jewelry anyway, and there's certainly no fucking goi beam
It's America could literally should be like all right fuck off enough like what are we doing here?
if I believe that it was
the goi beam or
Zog science like by government the way that people talk about it didn't like I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing
And I mean, I wouldn't be trying to decouple America from Israel to the best of my ability
in order to preserve the safety and security for the entire region, the entire menor region,
and American lives, Iranian lives, and countless other lives in the region.
It's just like the inconsistencies with American war planning at this point mean
that there's a separate factor here at play. That's like really pushing America into, into
doing this stuff. America still holds all the cards because how the fuck does Israel defend
itself? How the fuck could Israel ever defend itself without unlimited, unlimited support
from the United States of America? Yeah. The wolf, the landmine clip is, is exactly
what, what's his face? Yannis was talking about this clip is low key. I mean, this
This show is oil propaganda anyway, so here.
It could be $45 a barrel and it's still $4 a pump.
I don't know how those sunbaches do it out there.
2020, a barrel of oil is worthless.
This place became a ghost town.
And nobody's immune.
Kids have to quit college.
Trucks get sold or repowed.
Houses too.
People quit going to the doctor because they
lost their insurance.
Yeah, bust affects everything in a town like this.
Even the last fan of the population,
the smart ones, they pay cash for everything
and then suck away enough to ride out to troughs,
but there ain't that many smart ones.
This is how you have the celebration drink?
Well, shit, you asked.
I'm an old woman.
What the fuck?
What the fuck is this outro? Women are allowed to talk and Taylor shared in shows. Yeah. That's
why we like him because they're not woke. Okay. Women are only to be ogled at.
Duh. So that was the reason why I was talking about like Venezuela and heavy crude and,
and what that would have done to the oil markets in America, like oil markets generally,
if America started mass producing Venezuela and heavy crude, which, you know,
would take a long time to retool our facilities to do anyway. You got, this would be beneficial
for Louisiana, I think, right? In California, around the Gulf, like there, there are refineries
that can handle heavy Groot is just, you know, I think the big boys can handle it. Chevron
Exxon either put the refinements directly in Venezuela and get assurances that they'll
be safe or it would take 10 years at minimum the catch up.
I don't know if it would take 10 years.
It doesn't take time to retool for heavy oil, by the way.
We have fracking.
Dude, I know, I know, I know we have fracking.
I'm saying in order to stabilize the energy market, America would need a treasure trove
of natural reserves that's close enough in proximity to American refineries.
American fracking cannot keep up with the market demand.
American refineries, as American shale, American fracking cannot single-handedly keep up with
the market demands if the Gulf burns.
As a matter of fact, even this thing that I'm talking about to try to make sense of
like why we're doing all this, it still doesn't make sense.
I'm just trying to find like, uh, like what the gamble is here for America and American
capital. We import heavy oil, mix it with light oil and refine it based on producing bunkers,
heavy oil for construction, avgas, petroleum, et cetera. Yeah.
And you think China's going to stay put and take it? Like, are they going to let
the Gulf burn, bro, I don't know the, but that's super, super longterm potentially. And even
then it's speculation. I'm trying to make sense of what America is doing in the short term.
If America's goals in the short term, if America's goals revolve around, uh, you know, destabilizing
Iran fast enough and collapsing the state fast enough before the, before the entire global
economy implodes, then yeah, I don't think America is achieving those goals at all.
You know what I mean? I just don't think that it's within America's capabilities.
Do you see what I mean? Do you understand what I'm talking about? There's like so many
different factors like apparently there's precursory chemicals and and you know
products necessary for fertilizer that also goes through the straight and now
they can't get that and then if you don't have that fertilizer then you
can't do agricultural output and then you don't have food the price of food
goes up like the entire global economy is designed in a way where
everything touches one another so if you just shut off one of the fucking
parts. If you shut off one of the major hubs, whether it be major hubs of
international travel like the Dubai airport, come to Dubai BV, or you shut
off a massive, you shut off a massive hub in which a tremendous amount of
trade hinges on. You're fucked. You're totally fucked. So you're fucked in a way where like,
I don't think America's proximity to the conflict that they are creating is going to matter.
So, it's basically three different powers fighting against one another, well two aligned with one
other, American, Israel, fighting against Iran, and it's a matter of like, can Iran wait it out?
Can Iran make it hurt for long enough that America and Israel retreat?
Or, on the other side, America and Israel's goals are, can we destroy Iran?
Can we destroy Iran fast enough that we can then have assurances that like the refineries
would be fine, they'll be relatively safe, and the Strait of Hormuz will open up again,
and then, you know, the Asian markets can receive the much needed energy supply without
any any serious economic uh... hits
the problem is
at least for america in israel iran has hands but iran has fucking hands is it's
objectively true that iran has hands okay
i know that we love to think about our our force projection capabilities
everywhere all at once
in a matter of twenty four forty eight hours we
we have our fucking
uh... strike teams we have our aircraft carriers
they got the steam catapults sure they don't have the electro magnetic catapults
of the chinese abbot chinese only have one fucking carrier that's not
that's not cool enough we have thirteen
and we have nukes
nuclear power
you know all the stuff
except
all of that technological superiority and unlimited
blowout
gets fucking ethered when the opposite side can launch unlimited lawn mowers from the back
of a fucking pickup truck lawn mowers that they are building in deep underground bunkers
and those lawn mowers got fucking hands not only do those lawn mowers got fucking hands
But those flying lawnmowers can also swarm and destroy any ship that tries to go through
the Strait of Hormuz, even with potentially American naval assets literally slammed in
its ash cheeks.
So that's the problem.
If they got 50,000 Shahad drones and their manufacturing capabilities are still there,
right?
They can just send unlimited Shahad drones, like all the time, nonstop.
And the reality of the matter is that the Western forces have never really met, at
least in modern combat.
Armed forces have never really met an enemy like Iran.
Normally, you go in, you do a shock and out bombing campaign, you decapitate the state
or you destroy like the military command structure, you kill a fuck ton of civilians, and then
you maintain air superiority for the rest of the 20 year plus occupation.
And then you send in a fresh pile of meat of, of, you know, 18 year olds from Iowa and
Ohio and Kentucky that want to get a comms degree, uh, whose, uh, high school sweethearts
are getting their backs blown out while they're over there getting their dicks blown
up by IEDs, okay?
And you can keep that up for like 20 fucking years.
And a lot of people make money in the process.
Military industrial complex is happy.
The petrol capitalist pedophiles are happy. The, uh, the, the other side of the defense
contractors that, that engage in like development are happy in a Halliburton, right? Cause these
guys don't just do extraction. They also do like buildings and they're able to run
up the tab of the fucking Pentagon. Pentagon is happy. Everyone's happy. It's great.
Right. You're just dominating. Uh, you got sheep herders on the one side and you
got pedophile warlords on the other side, on our side, right? And you could just like
keep it, keep it going for a long as time. Stock market's happy. Everyone's happy with
Iran. They've finally tried to dominate a country that actually does have the capabilities
of making it hurt. Okay. That's it. That's the issue. Iran has the capabilities of
making it fucking hurt. And that's precisely the reason why I'm hearing a lot of
copium coming from the American side, like unlimited copium, shit like this.
What has happened? Let's list it out. So we took out the Iranian regime leader, the
the Ayatollah Khamenei, and then 40 of the top leaders. We degraded their military.
You can see we've been we've been laying that out all day all morning. We've
because they decided to attack their neighbors and we've kind of unified them
behind us so that's kind of worked in our favor to some degree. We've outed fake
allies Spain, England, right? Why should we ever help them again? That was this is
a way that we reveal that. We talked a little bit about the
insurance situation for ships coming across the Straits of Hormuz. So
There's there's that angle as well, which is very interesting. Oh, that's an interesting angle. That's the whole game
That's not an angle dumbass. That's the ballpark. What the fuck?
That's the full scope of the issue
Okay, oh, it's just the straight of Hormuz. What about the gay of Hormuz? We could just do that, right?
It's like, why don't we just build a canal?
through the other side of the mountainous side of Bahrain. Why don't we just do that and then problem solved.
I don't get it. Why don't they just carry the oil barrels to the other side, to the Red Sea side.
Oh, wow. Thank you. It's just, I had not, you know, years and years of planning and no one had thought about that.
that. Thank God. Thank God you're on it. We got the brightest minds here.
So,
you know, it's, it's fucking idiotic. We're a nation of idiots, run by idiots,
and, and, and their bloodthirsty, their monstrous idiots, and they have nuclear
arsenal. It's a devastating turn of events. It was inevitable that it would get here, right?
Meanwhile, one to two billion dollars every single day just to keep up this operation,
the costs are going to mount too. On top of that, the lost assets that will never be recovered,
The law says that will never be rebuilt the amount of money we spent on it all the eyes and ears in that region, right?
That Iran has effectively
Destroyed permanently destroyed all the radars
All the early advanced warning systems knock them the fuck out
Which has been so effective for the record it has been so
So effective
Because everyone was like, why is Iran, why is Iran hitting all the Gulf countries, but aren't you guys all Muslims?
Like why are the Muslims fighting one another again? They must be so barbaric and so stupid. It's like no dumbass
They were literally cratering the Bahrain Naval base on the one side on the other side
They were literally taking out all of the American all of the American radar systems
And now you have a situation where Israel cannot even fucking
Warn their citizens when ballistic munitions are launched in the direction of fucking Tel Aviv
So this cost is an incredibly conservative estimate because this cost is not even factoring in
all of the other operational costs, it's not factoring in like the full scope of the damage,
right? So these guys, like, but even then it's devastating, right? Even then it's devastating,
especially when you factor in the whole Elon Musk doge shit, right? Remember, remember when a bunch
of teenagers were working for Elon cut the funding to sesame sure a year ago because America was
on the verge of financial collapse or something? What happened now?
Maybe you are underestimating a FIFA Peace Prize awarded young man.
That's true.
Yeah, IDF officially came out and said that they can no longer guarantee it will send alerts
for missiles before the siren sound.
Iran Customs Service, is there a problem with the war you ordered?
Yeah.
So what's up?
And now someone's saying Ali Darjani just confirmed that they capture some American soldier.
Oh boy.
Oh boy.
You called it, Balkanization will happen.
No, will Balkanization happen?
We know that that's their goal.
We know that's been their fucking goal.
I hope that every single fucking Iranian that was coming in to my chat from either just freshly
left Tehran or living in the fucking diaspora will now understand exactly what I was talking
about.
This was always the fucking goal because this was Israel's goal.
And Donald Trump is Israel's bitch, okay?
He doesn't know anything.
He doesn't understand anything.
He does not comprehend anything at all.
He just knows, I will give you money and then I can build fucking golf courses in your country.
That's the only thing he fucking understands.
So someone like Benjamin Indian Yahoo, especially being like a, Trump is like clearly one of
those guys who's like, you know, Jews, they're good with numbers.
Like that type of dude, like a phillosomatic fucking reactionary boomer who like, you
know, thinks you got to have a Jew in your corner, like that type of guy.
So Benjamin Indian out comes in and he's like, well, I don't trust you, but you
know, you're probably smart.
You got some smart guys, right?
And Benjamin Anyao comes in and is literally like, you know, he comes in and he's like,
oh, yes, we will destroy the Iranian state and you will be a legend.
They tried to kill you.
They tried to kill you so many times.
And also you can take the oil and we'll build Trump Tower in Tehran and you will
be, uh, you will be celebrated as a legend for, uh, for doing, uh, the thing that, uh,
all of the previous presidents were too afraid to do like Biden, you know, who would never
have done this, Barack Obama, okay.
And then Trump hears that and goes, all right, great.
Look at how I was able to flex my might on Venezuela, right?
Look at how I was able to do that.
Boom, boom, boom.
Seem smart.
All these other fucking dickheads around me are telling me this is a great idea.
Lindsey Graham is literally getting the youngest boy slaves you have ever seen, freshly imported
to his fucking mansion from Tel Aviv, okay?
Lindsey Graham flew to Israel 500 times, bro.
Like literally he just kept going to Israel over and over again in the buildup to this
goddamn armada.
What the fuck was he doing there?
Oh, you don't have to speculate what the fuck he was doing there because Wall Street Journal actually wrote an article about it
Isn't it fucking crazy by the way that like
Three four or five years ago if you were to be like the American government is like directly being
Influenced by a foreign nation-state by the name of Israel to do insane shit people would look at you and go
What do you Pat? We can't get the fuck out of here you goddamn anti-Semite. I would have probably been like all right
All right, buddy. Maybe a little bit far fetched now. They're dabbing on us. Okay. Now they're fucking dabbing on us, bro
They are fucking dabbing on us. It's dab city. Okay?
Like Matthew Petty posted this, but it's it's crazy. Wall Street Journal's reports reporting to help make the case on Iran
Graham travels several several times the Israel in recent weeks meeting with members of the country's intelligence agency
They'll tell me things our own government won't tell me he said he spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Niaw coaching him on
how to lobby the president for action. Israeli spies, Koshia, U.S. Senator talked to the president
into war with Iran, sounds like an insane conspiracy theory, except that the senator
is bragging about it. Like, it's literally turning into, like, Israel opening up the
protocols of Zion and being like, what is in here? Like, it's the same principle
behind, like, the blood libel shit, right? When, like, people who want to defend Israel
would be like, oh, that's blood libel if you say Israel's killing children. If
if you tell me Israel's killing children you're doing blood libel, it's like well I'm seeing
the children that Israel's killing with my own two fucking eyes, what do you mean it's
blood libel?
Like this literally is an anti-semitic conspiracy except it's no longer an anti-semitic conspiracy,
it's just reality, it's just like real thing that is being written in American newspapers
and it's being mass produced, mass disseminated for every American to fucking read and
understand.
And seemingly because we are unironically fucking cattle, there's nothing we can do about it.
Everyone's just like, ah, what are you going to do?
It's crazy.
Now I will say this of course, make no mistake, if you're confused about what I'm saying
here like there is an end out of this it's still a phone call okay it's still a
fucking phone call that's all it takes but no one seems to want to take that
make that fucking phone call by the way if you're confused like I mean he
literally said it before as well here it is here's Lindsey Graham you ready
thumbs up back there thumbs up from everybody okay well I'm a senator Lindsey
Graham from South Carolina. I'm back. I come here every two weeks for a need to or not.
So why did I come this this time to put a fine point of where we're at as a world regarding
the Iranian regime? What do you think of Israel? What do you think will happen if
Israel falls? Are you fucking serious? Are you baiting? Like objectively, if the
Zionist occupational state no longer exists. It will be better for everyone, including the
current Israeli citizens. Okay. Because the reality of the matter is, while a lot of these
guys are fucking blood thirsty and hopped up on, on, uh, you know, unlimited greater
Israel project ambitions, things change. Okay. Things change. And, and people have
have the capacity to adapt to new environments, we are very resilient, okay?
How can you exist in a world right now in Israel as a Zionist Jewish Israeli where bombs
are constantly fucking flying overhead?
Don't you want to live in a world where that doesn't exist?
Wouldn't that be a much better way to go about it, like peaceful coexistence?
So yes, the world would objectively be a better place for not only the victims of
American and Israeli occupation and American and Israeli genocide, but it would even be a better
place for people that are living there. Okay? And for the most reactionary forces, the fucking,
the neo-Nazis, well, fuck them, okay?
I mean, there's that side of it too. I don't really want to think about that, but, um, but
yeah, Israel strikes the Ryan oil infrastructure and major escalation. So like that's where
we're at. That's what's going on right now. That's what's happening right now. Isn't
that fucking insane? You know, I always thought they had Lindsey doing some crazy
stuff on video, but at this point, I think he's just loves Nanny. I mean, you know,
crazy stuff on video, but at this point I think he just loves Nanny Aho and being evil that much.
Look at the smile on this man. He's so happy. What a freak. Yeah. No, he, well, the, the
fucking blood boys, uh, the ritualistic sacrifice of children for Lindsey Graham to
like probably suck the, uh, blood of is, is, you know, just extra profit, right? It's like
Penn. It's a cherry on the top. Yeah. He is a truly evil, uh, demon, uh, except
He also gets to have, you know, little boy slaves, I assume. So
You don't have to blackmail someone into doing something they want to do. Anyway,
Lindsey Graham does this stuff because he thinks it's awesome. Yeah, yeah, I, I, I agree. Oh dude,
I agree. I agree. Lindsey Graham with like Israel is, is kind of like, you know,
the average Republican with like NRA funding, right? Like the NRA doesn't need to give that guy money
for that guy to be like, I love guns. I want to fuck a gun. I want to put a gun up my asshole.
Okay. I want to, I fuck my gun every night. Like there are people who legitimately live like that.
Okay. And, and, you know, the NRA still gives them money, but they don't technically need to,
right? I'm very sure I've seen him come in his pants. We'll talk about war on cable news. Yeah,
Lindsey Graham is a psycho. I mean, this is his goal. This has been his fucking dream.
Sources telling us they believe it is possible. American forces are responsible for the attack
because they were conducting strikes in the vicinity of the school at the same time.
Retired Master Sergeant West Brown. What are we doing here, man? Everybody in the world knows
this already. I can't believe that there's like any confusion about how the fucking school
got bombed, which literally Pete Higgs, it came out and showed their strike targets and
the school was smacked up in the middle of it. So yeah, we know, we know that the fucking
Americans bomb the school. Trump can deny it all day every day. Everybody knows America
bomb the fucking school. Trump denied it and said it was Iran. Yeah, well, no one
Everyone gives a shit because no one believes him because he's a fucking psycho.
Bro, the funniest thing was, Israel immediately was like, this isn't on us.
I know you think we love to kill children, but this time it was not on us.
Believe me, it was the Americans.
It was.
It was not me.
I know.
I wish.
I wish it was us.
of killing children at schools. These are the raw children. But this time it was not
me who worked in the Pentagon office that assesses civilian casualties says he believes
the building was targeted. I could tell immediately that this this compound was deliberately targeted.
Yeah it was deliberately targeted and they're they're trying to fucking be like well it's
a school in a military base or in an older military installation like, uh, yeah, guess
what?
We also have fucking schools on our bases, dumbass.
That's normal.
That's the thing that, like it's in Iran.
What are you talking about?
Like no shit.
Like that doesn't mean you can blow up the fucking school.
Oh my God.
And since we've seen at least seven different target points that were individually targeted
by munitions within this compound very clearly.
Israel saying its forces were not operating in that area,
but one week since the attack, the US still looking into it,
saying that it would never deliberately target civilians.
Now this morning, President Trump
taking to social media, posting about the war in Iran,
saying in part that certain groups and areas of people
and areas inside of Iran that were not
considered for targeting up until this moment
are now, quote, under serious consideration
for complete destruction and certain death because of Iran's bad behavior, not exactly
clear Jenae, what he's talking about there.
Iran's military this morning says it's launched a wave of drones at Israel and U.S. military
bases in the region.
Overnight, air raid sirens and blasts could be heard in Jerusalem.
And this morning, smoke was seen over Dubai's airport.
Both are signs Iran still possesses the capability to launch retaliatory strikes.
MTS tie-up is in Doha, Qatar with more on the regional impact of the war in tears. Good morning
Adriana, good morning to you
Well in that true social post President Trump was responding to Iran's president Masoud Pazazgan's
Apology to Gulf States including where we are here in Qatar were which have essentially been repeatedly been hit by Iran
Let's go Brandon Iran came out and hit the hit the Brandon note
Okay. Iran came out and had their very own Brandon moment, which was really funny, because
like, yeah, Iraq, she who is infinitely more reliable as far as like the civilian government
side is a much more reliable narrator of events.
If you want to know exactly what's going on or what Iran is going to do, go directly
to the IRGC. If you want to hear like a more westernized, more liberalized version of what
they're doing, then you go to Arakshi. If you want to be confused, you go to the president.
Now, uh, you know, the president, President Xi'an is a, he's, or, or I keep saying his name wrong.
Okay. The, the, how do you fucking say, uh, the, the president's last name. I,
the Aussie, Aussie lessons are so fucking hard. I keep butchering it.
No, it's not air quotes in president right now he has there's a there is a three person committee that runs the country
technically. Okay.
So, there's a three-person committee that currently technically runs the country.
It's the de facto, it's the legal government, it's the de facto government especially when
there is no Ayatollah because Ayatollah says on top of everything else. But the problem
here is the IRGC is running the show. Like if you want to know what's going to happen
next, you can hear it directly from the IRGC. Because he came out, Pazishkyan came out
and said, I'm really sorry about this, you know, I feel really bad about this,
the stuff. And it's funny because I was looking at, you know, like I was looking at Iranian
sources and like how they responded to it. They were very pissed off. Most of, most of
the people were like, fuck you. How dare you say this? You fucking pussy. Like, uh, there's
a lot of people that are frustrated. There's a lot of people that are frustrated that
he came out and made it seem like he was, um, you know, made it seem like he was,
was doing the strategic retreat, trying to engage in negotiations again. And, you know,
that's obviously been a failure. That's been failure after failure. And they were frustrated
for that reason. The other reason why it was confusing was because, and he is the moderate
force in this, in this equation. And so it was actually really, at least more moderate
than the IRGC, IRGC being the most hard line. But the funniest thing was they were saying that
there was one guy, there was one guy that I saw, like some Iranian analysts that I saw that was
saying that he's not a very good speaker, even when it comes to domestic affairs. Like they
like they were just shitting on him. Like they were saying that he's just not very good
at communicating his, his opinions. Like they were like, I just don't listen to him. Yeah.
Pazishka is kind of our secure, Starmer, centrist, useless and hated by all. I don't mind that
much pity. I don't mind him that much. I pity him. Yeah. He's in him. He's stuck
between a rock and a hard place anyway. But basically what he was like, what the
But the Araki statement was to like explain what the position statement actually was supposed
to imply considering that right after the statement came out, everyone was like, oh
my God, is it over?
Like, is Iran no longer going to hit the Gulf?
Like, are they retreating?
It was not over at all.
Newsflash, they kept immediately fucking hitting the Gulf.
So it turns out his statement meant very little, right?
So Arakshi comes out, foreign minister, much more reliable than the president in this sort
of like trying to figure out what the fuck's going on internally in Iran situation.
He says, President Pesiskian expressed openness to the escalate within our region, provided
that our neighbors, airspace, territory and waters are not used to attack the Iranian people.
Gesture to our neighbors was almost immediately killed by President Trump.
President Pazishkiyan's openness to the escalation within our region provided that our neighbors,
airspace, territory and waters are not used to attack the Iranian people was almost
immediately killed by President Trump's misinterpretation of our capabilities, determination and intent.
If Mr. Trump seeks escalation, it is precisely what our powerful armed forces have long
been prepared for and what he will get.
for any intensification of Iran's exercise of self-defense will lie squarely with the
U.S. administration.
Mr. Trump's week-long misadventure has already cost the U.S. military $100 billion, and that's
probably not that high, but okay.
In addition to the lives of young soldiers, when markets reopen, that cost will balloon
and directly be transferred to ordinary Americans at pumping stations.
Yeah, the pumping stations is where the American government pumps their asses full
of cum.
So that's the real pumping station that's going on. Anyway, Mr. Trump's own national
intelligence council representing input from the 18 intelligence agencies of the US determined
that war on Iran is destined to fail. I also warned Mr. Trump's envoys that war will not
improve their bargaining position where these warnings conveyed the American people voted
to end involvement in costly, costly quagmires in the Middle East. Instead they have ended
up with an administration that Ninyahu, after decades of failed attempts, finally managed
to dupe into fighting Israel's wars.
This is a war of choice pursued by a small cabal of Israel-firsters, and Israel-first
always means America last.
And then he posted this.
Here's Ali Larjiani's statement.
Oh, just that's here it is. We do not welcome an expansion of the war, but if Europeans intervene, we will deal with them accordingly.
Yeah.
position I'm sorry please put me out of my misery just kill me how many from
beyond the grave woman is a flower large young a lot of Johnny I mean the
Iranian goals here are very clear okay if you want to know what they want what
they consider a W in the situation it is the defeat or rather a strategic
retreat of American assets from the region. Okay, a complete withdrawal or at least like
a very significant withdrawal of American assets from the region. They want there to never
be bases around the Strait of Hormuz ever again. They don't want the Gulf States to
be in line with America and Israel. And perhaps that's part of the reason why they
They have been pummeling Dubai the hardest.
You might be wondering, what the fuck are they hitting Dubai so much?
Well, for the longest time I've explained to you that Dubai is, or the UAE is basically
Arab Israel, Muslim Israel, whatever you want to fucking call it.
Throughout the Abraham Accords and onward, the UAE has played the most significant
role in increasing Israel's influence among the Arab masses, okay?
The Muslim world in general.
They have basically played side by side with Israel every step of the fucking way.
It got to such a degree that it even threatened Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia is the most significant, most consequential Gulf state, right?
It's the big dog, it's the top dog in the fucking region.
And it got to such a degree that even Saudi Arabia was like, you're done.
Even they soured their relationship with the UAE because of how much play the United
Arab Emirates were getting from being Israel's dogs, servile dogs, the Israeli state. Okay?
That's the reason why Iran keeps hitting the UAE. That's the reason why they're hitting
them. Because they literally, they were the, the Trojan horse. They were the, the guys
that we're actively trying to engage in PSI ops. They were the ones who were actively doing
like, you know, offensive persuasion campaigns. And that is precisely the reason why UAE has
been receiving an even larger amount of bombing campaigns than Israel has partially because
This is like closer distance, easier to strike as opposed to Israel, which is more difficult
to hit.
This is really, this is a funny thing that I saw as well.
The regime state TV, Irib three has just spent the past 20 minutes not talking about the
U S or Israel, but about how their goal is to kill the idea of Dubai.
They came, they claimed Kuwait used to be like Dubai, but it never recovered from the
first golf war.
And this is their goal in the UAE.
Real question, how is Egypt?
What's Egypt's role in all this?
Egypt, what is it Egypt?
What's that?
Is that?
What is that?
Is that like a, what the fuck?
That's crazy.
That's crazy.
Am Israel high? Am Israel high? Am Israel high? I love Israel. I love the nation state of Israel. Israel's most moral nation. Israel's best nation. Israel would never kill a single child.
Okay, Israel will never Israel would never kill a single child and if Israel has killed children, let's be real
It's because they deserved it those kids were Hamas
Those kids were IRGC
I'm so sorry
For the things that I've said
Yeah, Egypt is irrelevant. It's not it's a non-factor. It's utterly irrelevant Egypt has just wait
Well, we'll talk a lot about Egypt in the upcoming year, possibly, if the state inevitably collapses.
A lot of issues with the economy. It's a vassal state. It works. It serves America and Israel's purpose.
It's basically like a holdover state at this point. It's even worse than fucking Jordan, honestly.
It's unbelievable. One of the most powerful countries in the region for so long.
Again, another empire, another country with so much culture, another country with so much
to offer the rest of the world.
And yet now it is not even a fucking state.
It's a failed state.
And the people are very frustrated.
And I think that eventually it'll get to a degree where there will be too much instability
and the state will not be able to purge the people.
Egyptians are the nice people you'll ever meet. Yeah, no, Egyptians are great.
I'm just saying that they're, they're, they're cooked.
So, getting back to the analysis, US gas prices per gallon obviously shot up here last week
it was $297, now it's $343. That's going to have, you know, that's going to drive up prices
across the board. It's also really funny because gas prices are the only thing that
Donald Trump has been able to lean into as far as, you know, how he's tackling inflation.
He's like, every time, every time people talk about, every time people talk about like inflation
Trump will be like affordability is made up. They made up the word. No one has ever heard
the word affordability before. Also think about the gas prices. It's so good. Well,
Now he lost that too. So maybe the Amerifatts will finally understand that, you know, our
actions do have consequences. I doubt it. They're so fucking stupid that they don't,
I don't think they'll fully understand, but that's the other side of the story.
But yeah, getting back to the president statements, not a lot of weight on these,
these statements, except Donald Trump immediately took up, took the opportunity to be like, see,
Iran is done. They're done. They're retreating their pussies, their cowards, whatever. And
then they blew up a fucking water desalination plant, um, you know, which also doesn't make
sense. Cause like imagine if, imagine if, uh, if he had the power, he had the control
over the IRGC, and he actually was trying to do strategic retreat to negotiate.
Why the fuck would you bring them back in by blowing up, by going up the escalation ladder
and blowing up the fucking water desalination plant, and then simultaneously start striking
oil refineries?
If this was a sincere request for negotiations, then why are you doing more war crimes
with the hopes that they keep fighting.
It like none of it makes sense.
Well the reason why is because no one is invested, no one is interested in negotiations at all.
I mean drones and missiles over the past week and Pazeskin promised to stop targeting them
unless attacked.
Now Mr. Trump said Iran is no longer, and this is his words, the bully of the Middle
East and is instead the loser of the Middle East saying they will be for many decades
and take Iran, which is being beat the hell as apologizes, surrender to his middle East
neighbors, a promise that it will not shoot them anymore. This promise was only made because
of relentless US and Israeli attack. They were looking to take over and rule the Middle
East is the first time Iran has ever lost thousands of years to surrounding Middle
Eastern countries. They have said, thank you, president Trump. I said, you're welcome.
Iran is no longer the bully of the Middle East. They are instead the loser of the
Middle East and will be for many decades until they surrender or more likely completely
collapsed today. Iran will be hit very hard under serious consideration for complete
destruction and certain death. A surrender or collapse morning Iran will quote be hit
very hard today. Now the shockwaves caused by the war have already badly shaken the Gulf
region, which is known for its wealth and its safety and stability as its major airports
among the busiest in the world either remain closed or offering only limited evacuation
flights, keeping thousands of Americans stranded as neither side is neither side is actually
interested in negotiating at all. Like I do think that America will be invested in negotiating
with Iran before Iran will be invested in negotiating with America. That much is clear because Donald
Trump has said that already. He lied. You know, you know, America was like, Oh shit,
this actually didn't work out the way I thought it did. After the second day when America
was like, Iran wants to negotiate. Maybe I'll do it. There is one side here. However,
definitely does not want to negotiate until complete collapse of the state. That's Israel.
This is why I've been saying over and over again throughout this entire process, if you want to
understand what the most reasonable, least bloody way of getting out of this quagmire is by
cutting off Israel. You have to cut out Israel from the equation. As long as Israel's there,
It's not going to happen.
Sina Tusi reports, Israel is escalating towards targeting energy infrastructure in Iran, likely
triggering more consequential Iranian attacks on energy facilities in the Persian Gulf and
beyond.
This will greatly raise the stakes.
Israel is doing this despite the cost for US and global economy.
Mark Ames says, so much of the US Israeli targeting seems to be designed to trigger
further Iranian escalations.
Israel wants to collapse the region, and Trump and Hexeth are gullible over
confident maniacs.
That's why I said, I think they're not just invested in destroying and collapsing Iran.
I think they want to destroy, it sounds insane, but I think they just want to destroy the
Gulf.
They want to have a completely destabilized and very weak Gulf.
And by they I mean Israel.
Israel wants it.
America is not considering what the repercussions will look like right now.
It's pretty fucking crazy, because otherwise, what the fuck would you hit the Iranian oil
refineries like that's a red line, right now.
Now we wait to see if Iran actually retaliates and also follows America and Israel up the
the escalation ladder.
They're being decimated now, you know, at some point I don't think there'll be anybody
left maybe to say, yeah, we surrender, but they're being decimated.
Great.
Great.
Fantastic.
Yeah.
Yeah, we're led by, we're led by fucking baboons, dude. Yeah.
Shot head strike on Dubai, international earlier has been issues, evacuation orders for Nahariya
and Kira Shimona, Bloomberg, only large vest associated with Iran are crossing the Hormuz,
UAE, MOD 16 ballistic missiles, 119 drones have been launched at us today attacks on
Bahrain and Saudi video of the impact of the Iran Iraq border unclear what the target
It was possibly energy infra.
An oil tanker was just struck off the coast of Jubeil.
Iran fired ballistic missiles at Israel moments ago and are launching more now.
Sirens are active in Bahrain now.
That was eight hours ago.
Washington Post classified a report by the National Intelligence Council found that even
a large scale assault on Iran would be unlikely to oust the IRIs, entrenched establishment,
a sobering assessment as the Trump admin raises the specter of an extended military
campaign. Reportedly a video of American high-mars launch from Bahrain moments ago. That's also
new, which increases Bahrain's culpability here. It's not just like hosting American
military base, but directly using Bahrain soil to strike Adirond, which will cause
Iran to retaliate against Bahrain in even worse ways.
Iroj, Masjidi, targeting infrastructure is a serious escalation that will have dire consequences.
It is the U.S. that has initiated this dangerous approach, not Iran.
AFP, loud explosions have been heard in the Bahraini capital, Manama.
American targets are being hit in Abidnau.
Ballistic missiles reported over UAE.
That was six hours ago.
Al Jazeera says an Iranian military spokesperson has warned that any U.S. ships entering the
Gulf will end up in the bottom of the sea. Lebanese Army Commander General Rodolphe
Haikal says, Israeli landing forces wore military uniforms similar to those of the
Lebanese Army and used military vehicles and ambulances. This is the Israeli extraction
campaign that they did. Israel has been going on side quests, by the way, while all
of the world is collapsing around them, where they were like, oh, we found one
of our, you know, we found one of our soldiers buried in Lebanon. We're going to go and extract
them. And from what I understand, they unironically used Syrian territory to launch this campaign,
while also engaging in perfidy and wearing a gear that was like similar to the Lebanese
military, Hezbollah engaged in ambush operation and buried them instead.
Um, yeah, I don't know what the fuck Israel is doing where they're just like, oh yeah,
let's use our special forces to go and dig up graves to find this one like Israeli guy
insanity.
Um, but yeah, there's videos from strikes in Dubai Iran has just fired, uh, more ballistic
missiles towards Israel, um, the Qatari, uh, M O D Iranian aggression caused a fire
and material damage to a house and several buildings in Manama. Saudi M.O.D., a ballistic
missile fell near Prince Sultan. Hezbollah just hit Haifa three hours ago, two times in a row with
a very large barrage of rockets, likely Fajr-type. Al-Mahdi's correspondence in Baghdad, an explosion
followed by the activation of American embassies defense systems in the Iraqi capital. Another
Khoramshar just arrived in Tel Aviv. Those are the cluster munitions that Iran has been deploying over Tel Aviv.
not close there not Merve or yeah sorry
Hasbullah has conducted over nine operations in the last two hours, Marev, this is the
most massive fire and carried out by Hasbullah since Tuesday when it entered the fighting
against Israel. Channel 12 says constant alarms in the north. Here's a Hasbullah barrage
over Kiryat Shemona moments ago. This is from two hours ago. Obviously the Israeli
interceptors are like fairly adept at, you know, tackling these kinds of bombings, but
even then they still have the capacity to punish Israel.
I've heard from some settlers saying, some settlers saying, okay, if we escape the
north as the government is telling us to and evacuate the north where do we go
Tel Aviv Tel Aviv is also getting bombed so while Iran is pummeling while Iran is
is not pummeling but peppering Tel Aviv. Hezbollah is dumping munitions in the
north. This could also be part of the reason why the the Iranian strikes have
diminished as well or at least that's one speculation that like they're
leaning into their regional allies again to the best of their ability. They got a lot of,
they still have, you know, some militia in Iraq, obviously, and they are clearly leaning into
Hezbollah. And then you have the Ansarallah in Yemen that's guarding the Red Sea. And they are
seemingly very excited to get in on the action as American naval assets move in their vicinity.
Settler platforms claim that occupation army is preparing for Yemen to join the fire tonight.
44 minutes ago, Hezbollah has conducted 19 operations in the last five hours. Jesus Christ.
Al Jazeera says targeting the US military base near Adibid International and Iranian missile
attack in Negev shortly ago. So Negev has a lot of military assets in the desert. We will most
likely never see the impact sites at all. That's where, that's where like the Israeli air forces
or at least some of their, that's where some of the Israeli air assets are. That's where
some of their rate, one of their big radars is there in the negative desert as well. So,
yeah, there is a lot going on in terms of monitoring the fucking situation. The situation is being
monitored a lot. China will well understand that a tax on Iranian oil infrastructure could
prompt attacks on other countries. Risking oil supply says a senior department of defense
policy advisor last year.
On the ground in Tehran, Israel will destroy the global economy. Yeah, this is also recent
as well. Fire in an oil depot in, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
I don't fucking know how to say these words man area of Tehran
Sex max me please
please.
Trump also turned around and said the United Kingdom are once great ally, maybe the greatest
of them all is finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle
East.
That's okay, Prime Minister Starmer, we don't need them any longer, but we will remember.
We don't need people that join wars after we've already won President Donald J. Trump.
He's posting like a little baby throughout this entire thing.
Kid Starver showed up a Marahawk posting relevant now that Trump is shit talking to us.
Yes, I've seen those.
Oh, also Trump is doing, I mean, this is full Brandon, by the way, we've gone up the
So, you know how there's like an escalation ladder as far as like, you know, what infrastructure
they're targeting, that sort of thing.
There's also a Brandon escalation ladder as well.
And Trump keeps climbing up that Brandonization ladder.
We have gone up to like 75% Brandon right now.
It's not like full Brandon, because he hasn't hit the hub over there yet.
But if he hits the hub over there, that's when you know it's 100% Brandonization
complete, right? So there's levels of brandonization that's taking place. And I would say this is
like 75% Brandon, where he is asked on Trump Force One Air Force One, uh, you know, why he's
doing this. Let's hear what he had to say. They are among the most evil people ever on Earth.
They cut babies heads off. They chop women in half. When they did, take a look at on George.
They chop women in half like lumberjacks.
The capitating babies, obviously classic Brandon, okay?
That's a classic brandonian response.
When a branding gets in a panic state, more he has to defend the most glorious nation
on Earth, the nation state of Israel. The common Brandon response is to say, well, Hamas, Hamas,
Jack, they killed children, Jack, they chopped babies. They cut the babies' heads off. They
light them on fire, right? That's what he used to do.
Trump is now hitting levels of Brandon. We previously did not think he would hit.
That's been Salman. That's dead ass out of Arabia. Okay. Uh, it's, it's just, it's definitely
not anything like this is not, there's no, there's no evidence for this at all. He just
came up with that on the spot. That's why I'm laughing because he, the decapitation
of children, we've obviously heard from Brandon before. It's a common, you know, Zionist lie.
But this one is new. The chopping women in half is new. He just came up with that on
the spot. So I'm going to give it, I'm going to give it, you know, there's two separate
Brandon responses here. Obviously, like there's the Brandonization escalation ladder.
But then there's also like, how many Branden's do you give to this? Because you know
how you give like five booms. Like I give this a four Brandon. I give this four
Brandon's and the reason why is because he gets an extra point for adding
something new on the spot.
Babies heads off, they chopped women in half, but they did take a look at October 7th,
take a look at what they've done over the last 47 years. So I know nothing about
a desalination plan. Other than to say if they're complaining about the desalination plan,
we complain about the fact that they shouldn't be chopping babies heads off, okay?
Those babies, they don't need water. No one needs water in Iran, famously. Babies don't
need water. So yeah, I don't know if Iran will retaliate by going up the escalation ladder
alongside America, but as it stands currently, if they don't do that, you know, it's not
like it's going to cause America to back down as we've seen so far. America and
Israel are not backing away from this. So we shall see.
They said ages ago if America bombs their oil refineries, so will they. I know,
but President Trump would ask if he would deploy US ground troops and nuclear
sides in Iran and Air Force One. At some point maybe we will. That would be a great thing,
but right now we're just decimating them. We haven't done it. We haven't gone after it
yet, but it's something we could do later on. Also, Donald Trump was asked about the Kurds
and he had some inconsistencies there as well. They were like, so what about the Kurds? And
Donald Trump said this.
The Ukrainians are concerned that the Kurds will carve out kind of an autonomous region
as they did in Syria and Iraq.
We're not having, we're not looking to the Kurds going in.
We're very friendly with the Kurds as you know, but we don't want to make the war any more
complex than it already is now.
We don't want the Kurds going in, I don't want to see the Kurds get hurt and killed.
We've had a good relation.
They will eat you though, but we really, I've told them, I don't want them to
that's because the Kurds are like, yeah, I don't know if we want to do this. You guys
kept saying we're doing this, but we're not really doing this. So I don't know what's
up with that.
Yeah, when asked if the Iranian map would look the same, President Trump said, I don't
know.
I don't think so.
Going in, bro, does not know that there are Kurds in Iran, bro, Donald Trump does not
know what a cheat, when Donald Trump is asked about Kurds, he literally thinks they're
talking about cheese, okay? He does not know anything.
The reason why I think they don't want, like Israel wants to push the Kurdish angle and
it's not just for Iran. Israel wants to push the Kurdish angle because they want Turkey
involved. And Turkey doesn't want the Kurds to be involved at all because remember that's
That's the bordering region with the Turkish-Iranian border as well.
Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan says he asked Secretary Rubio about reporting that
the USG was looking at our Iranian Kurdish militia to attack Iran's security forces.
Fidan says Rubio told him that he had no such intentions or efforts.
Update to this from Trump's gaggle on Air Force One.
Trump says he ruled out having Kurds to join the Iran War.
they're willing but war is complicated enough. I heard on LJZ that they had stated that they
were willing to go in but only if they were deployed with American soldiers. Yes. There
are numerous different, there are many different Kurdish troops in the region. There are
Kurds in Iran, some of which literally fight alongside the IRGC, inside of the IRGC, okay?
There are some Kurdish groups that are separationists that want to build an autonomous, like, Iranian
Kurdistan inside of Iran.
There are also a lot of Kurds outside of Iran in the bordering areas.
Some of them want to fight alongside America and Israel, but need additional assurances
such as aerial cover, air support created no fly zone over Iranian airspace. America has not been
able to give them that assurance. Some Kurdish militias in the region don't want to touch it at all
because they're like, what the fuck do you mean? We saw what happened with Rojava, right?
And some said, understandably, that they would go in only if American troops are going in
with them.
Okay?
As the Iran conflict expands, there's reporting tonight that thousands of Iranian Kurds are
preparing for a potential military operation in Iran.
They say Tel Aviv looks like Gaza now.
I don't know.
It doesn't, dude.
That's fucking insane.
On with US backing, that's the Associated Press tonight.
The Kurds are among the largest stateless ethnic group in the world with roughly 30
million living.
Look, look, I'm sorry. When you hear a Fox news host get woke about the Kurds, you know that there's, you know,
there is an interventionist desire here. Okay.
Kurds are about to be used and abused as they have been over and over again in the region every single fucking time,
only to be discarded, only to then like allow the Turks to come in and just like bomb their positions
and create like a, like a barrier territory.
just know that that's happening because these guys don't give a fuck about the
35 million ethnic Kurds that live in this entire region that are a
stateless population they've never cared about that shit why the fuck would they
care about it with Kurds the only reason why they're acting like they give a
shit like they're they're you know radical leftists or whatever the only
reason why they act like they give a shit about it is because you know they
They want to use and abuse the Kurds again.
Are they stateslids?
Well, they are as far as like, there's no, there's no Kurdistan, okay?
Their statuses in that regard and the states that they live inside of are fairly oppressive
to varying degrees.
The only place that has like been able to carve out an actual Kurdish region, an autonomous
region has been Iraq and that obviously came with the invasion.
Rojava was supposed to be another one and America totally was like, no, we're not
doing that. Turkey doesn't want there to be any autonomous Kurdish regions, unless those
autonomous Kurdish regions are directly under the influence of Turkey.
And I'm not super up to date with like the Iranian version of these incidents, but I
do know that a lot of the Kurdish militias, like Kurds in Iran are a part of the IRGC.
They're part of the armed forces. They're a part of the police. They're a part of
like normal Iranian society, but there are still some Kurdish militia movements. They're just like
super limited, right? And the ones that are super limited, it's very, you know, Kurds will get mad at
me and say Hassan, how dare you fucking say this. You're, you're a piece of shit. You're a Turkish
ethno nationalist, you're an alternationalist, but like, let's be real, some of the Kurds in
in Iran are working with the Mossad, okay?
The UK, Mr. Talbani, thanks for joining us.
My pleasure.
Let's first start.
Because you fall for fake news?
Okay.
Big picture and paint the picture from where you sit,
of what you see with this war in Iran
and what you think the implications are
of it as it exists now.
We saw the hostilities start surprisingly, and it seems to be a massive escalation across
all fronts. Kurdistan has come under attack from several different angles, and I'm not
seeing any sign of a slowdown. If anything, I'm seeing an escalation.
Yeah, Kurds are not a monolith. Each faction has varying beliefs. Some would never fight
for Israel. Exactly. And initially, a lot of the Kurdish militia movements historically
have been revolutionary movements and Maoists and Marxist-Leninist movements. Okay?
You immediately jumped on the Mossad Israeli news like a dot-checkership, brother? That is fucking crazy.
To act like there is no motion there is insane. Okay? And even the most like
resistant groups. Even the groups that are like saying that they don't want to do this
are basically saying we don't want to do this because America won't give us enough assurances.
That doesn't mean that they don't have the ambition, okay? Jesus Christ, you're making it seem like
I'm, you're making it seem like there's no reason, you're making it seem like there's no
reason for me to potentially assume that this is a part of their destabilization initiative in
Iran it very clearly is it is some of the factions have said of course they're
not going to be fucking working with Israel some of the factions have said
we would love to work with America in Israel you just need to give us air
support and some of the factions have said we will not go and work with
Israel unless or America unless you actually not only give us air support
but you also fucking send in troops alongside ours you will hear this now
So the US is working on taking out missile sites and drone factories and that sort of thing
But as far as groups on the ground fighting the Iranians
This reporting that thousands of Iranian Kurds are preparing for this operation. Where does that stand?
There are a lot of Iranian Kurds
that deserve dignity and they deserve
of perhaps better treatment, but as for any actual preparation and armed Kurds inside
Iran, there are elements, and there's lots of political organization, but most of the
most effective fighting forces are actually.
What's your opinion on Kurdistan?
My opinion on Kurdistan is that all of the fucking regional entities that exist currently
have created a spectacular national security failure for themselves over and over again
by not offering the Kurds dignity internally or not offering them statehood with autonomous
regions. If they don't do that, then America is going to take advantage of that. It's that
simple. You either build a Kurdistan with regional cooperation or you build it as Israel.
And I know Kurds get really mad at me when I say this, because they're like, what the
fuck are you talking about? These are indigenous people. It's true. Yes, Kurds are indigenous
of the region as opposed to Israelis who are not, right? But that still doesn't change the
fucking function of a Western-backed Kurdistan. A Western-backed Kurdistan will always be a
destabilizing factor. It's that simple. And it's understandable that none of the fucking
regional actors would want that to take place. Even if they are lap dogs of America themselves
like Turkey, Turkey is a vestige of American empire. Okay. Straight up. Turkey is an imperial
vestige. And yet they still have their own ambitions because it turns out they still
have their own, they still have their own interest in sovereignty and maintaining some semblance
of sovereignty. And they are understandably worried about Israel.
Especially when you have, you know, Wall Street Journal op-eds being released, Naftali
Bennett talking about how after Iran is done, the next step is Turkey.
How can you look at every single thing that is unfolded in this fucking region at the behest
of Israel and not assume that fucking Turkey is next?
What do you think of Rojava?
I love Rojava.
As you guys know, one of my favorite people on the planet literally went and fought in
in Rojava.
Hello, everyone. They're on the borders here.
You had a conversation with President Trump. What was that like?
He was very charming. He was very kind. I could feel the emotion in his voice. He said
that the Kurds were great fighters. My understanding is that the protection of their people in
Iraq is paramount. He's very grateful for all the years that we have served and
I have spent with your special forces.
You also talked to the Iranian Foreign Minister.
Yes.
What is their take on things from your call?
Do you believe that regime change is possible the way it's heading right now?
The Foreign Minister's Excellency expressed great disappointment, if I'm honest with
you.
He indicated that as far as they were concerned.
How does the indigenous people...
Although it's a lot to say...
Yes, like the people that say Turks are the colonizers are also ridiculous because like it's been fucking...
I think it's been long enough, you know what I mean? It's been long enough guys. They didn't...
They like they didn't come from the steps of 78 years ago, okay?
Like...
They're definitely also...
You can consider the Turks at this point, an indigenous population in Anatolia, okay?
And some of the talks were going well.
A little too late for that conversation.
I'm going to point out a technical point.
Also, none of this shit matters. I don't give a fuck. Like I said, if...
If every single Jewish Israeli was indigenous to the population and they were advancing
Israel's current interest in the region, that would still be unacceptable, okay?
Like this is why I always get really mad when people do the genealogy and the ancestry arguments
about, you know, Jews and Israel are like, oh, they're all from Poland.
They're from Lithuania, you know, whatever the fuck.
Who gives a shit?
Who gives a shit where they're from?
What matters to me is they're killing people, okay?
What matters to me is the Israeli state's actions.
I don't give a fuck whether they have the capability to trace their ancestry back 3,000 years or
80 years or 100 years or 200 years, it literally doesn't matter even a little bit.
It's just stop fucking killing people and say the same thing about the Turkish state
when they're killing guards, okay?
Just to sit together in the upcoming days to discuss technical matters.
They indicated that this wasn't a war that they were looking forward to but it was
a war they would have to fight.
It's definitely existential to them.
I got the impression that they were open to some form of peaceful negotiation, which realistically
is the only real solution to this issue.
Regime change at the moment doesn't look on the cards from what I see.
We've seen no uprisings anywhere.
We've seen nothing of that, but it's early days, I expect.
The reason why I don't like this argument, by the way, the assessment here is because
he's, he's saying, like, if there's an opportunity, we will fucking seize on it.
And I, it's ridiculous.
Right now, right now, especially if the Iranian government doesn't maintain its, its,
its centrality, if the Iranian government withers away, if it's destroyed, Iran is
He's balkanized. Okay? The idea that the Kurds will be able to like piece it out and
build the Iranian side of Kurdistan is ridiculous because then Turkey comes into the fucking
fold.
The operation to be long and very difficult.
You think there are difficult days ahead. The president is suggesting that he would
only accept unconditional surrender, in his words, to a reporter. So you don't see that
right now that this is on the console of happening?
I don't, sir. No, I don't see that right now. I think that the regime has been planning
for this for 45 years, and you can expect a fierce resistance. The definition of regime
change is important. What is the definition of regime change? And is there an off-ramp?
Because some could argue that most mission parameters have been achieved. So is there
an off-ramp? We're now perhaps we can try to resolve this diplomatically.
Yeah, I think from the administration...
This is the best part of the conversation where he's just like, he's saying like,
we don't want to take military action. We don't want to play like a military role
And that regime destabilization will be harmful for all cards in the region, all Iranians, everyone.
So he's right about that.
Which side is Turkey and Azerbaijan over?
Well, Turkey is more of a wild card.
Turkey's on all sides all the time.
That's just how Adwan works, OK?
He works in mysterious ways.
one day he'll say israel fuck you uh... you know
uh... will will destroy israel and in the next day of the like but will also send
you weapons as well if you need it
playing all sides all the time
that's the name of the game
also by john is more uh... leading on the side israel
listening to them, taking out the ballistic missile capability, making sure that Iran never
gets a nuclear weapon, was the original objective going in, the Israelis clearly are more wanting
specific regime change to get a different leader in place that the US and Israel can
work with.
I understand that. And I think that, Mr. Baer, the conditions, I keep hearing the comparisons to 2003.
I think the conditions are very different to 2003. In 2003 there was legitimate, well-known, respected opposition to Saddam,
among the Shiites, among the Kurds. And don't really see that in Iran now.
There isn't a standard, a symbol, for people to follow. And that will make it very difficult.
Troops on the ground with the country the size of Western Europe,
I'm not sure if that's feasible either, but there are many options, and I think the US
administration is wise enough to modify their position as the battle changes and as the
battlefield changes.
Just to be clear, so there's no armed cross-border operation happening now from your territory
in Iraq involving Iran in Kurds into Iran?
Not that I see, and you could argue that that's actually a detriment.
Iranians like everybody else are very a nationalistic person, and I believe that if they fear that
Kurds coming in from elsewhere will cause a split or a splintering of their country,
this may actually unify the people and against this separatist movement.
Then you have the complications of Turkey.
Turkey will have legitimate concerns of this happening.
You will have Turkish intervention against the Kurdish troops.
At the same time, there is a problem with the A-Series.
I think it's a very complicated scenario.
And perhaps Kurds being tip of the spear is not the way to go.
Yeah.
There are many minorities, you're right, in Iran.
And it's very complex as far as how it comes together.
If you were to look into a crystal ball,
how do you think this ends?
I think that Kurdistan needs to be a bridge,
not a battlefield.
And the Kurds are uniquely positioned as being your great allies and a partner and a neighbour
of Iran.
I think we're uniquely positioned to play a role in de-escalation when the time is appropriate,
like my late father used to play that role.
But what I see now from what I'm seeing is a weakened Iranian system, but the institutions,
very different to ours, our institutions and they remain solid. I think that once military
objectives are achieved, I dare say that it will be a time for diplomacy. And at that
time we stand ready, as always, to stand with our friends and allies to try to bring
stability, peace, and prosperity to this region that truly has suffered from far too
many wars and far too many conflicts.
with the drone threat from Iran because that's what we're seeing most in some of these Gulf countries.
Yes. Are you are you worried about attacks and how to defend against those drone attacks that come
in swarms? Not to sound flip and says not our first rodeo and we have absolutely no defense
against any drones. So I think the less time spent worrying about it the better.
Yeah, I gotcha. And the US is attempting to deal with all of those threats together. It's
very interesting to hear your perspective. If you were to say the thing you're most worried
about, what is it?
The humanitarian crisis. I think the people of the Middle East have suffered enough. And
I urge all sides to try to look at a less bloody way to resolve our issues.
I understand that.
And I do believe I genuinely- Yeah, well, American Israel don't care about that.
Let's be real.
We do believe that Mr. Trump in his heart wants peace.
And I understand the theory of peace of strength.
And I also think that the one that comes to acknowledge victory, there will be grace
in that victory and we may be able to have dialogue and we may be able to resolve this
issue through the only way that we'll make a long lasting peace. And that's dialogue,
stability. Peace.
And here, while oil prices which fuel economies across the Gulf also continue to surge. Now
leaders in the region are warning of a wider disruption to energy exports that may trigger
a major downturn rather in the global economy.
One week into this war, the battlefield is still expanding faster than diplomacy.
And the question facing leaders across the Gulf and beyond is whether the next phase brings
escalation or any meaningful effort to step back from the brink.
Kelly.
Tiaz, thank you very much.
President Trump on Friday approved a new $151 million arm sale to Israel.
Now that deal bypassed congressional approval after Secretary of State Marco Rubio issued an
emergency waiver.
This morning, the president will attend the dignified transfer of the six Americans killed
in the opening days of the war with Iran.
CBS News' Nicole Killian is traveling with the president in Doral, Florida.
Nicole, good morning.
Hey, good morning to you, Kelly.
President Trump is addressing Caribbean and Latin American leaders here at his resort
in.
This is also incredibly fucking stupid.
The Donald Trump like shielded the America shit that he's doing with like all the
compradors, all the right wing fucking fascists in, in Latin America.
Um, that's the other, that's the other play that they're going for.
Latin America obviously is like much easier to, to take control over in
In comparison to Iran, obviously, because Iran has spent a good deal of resources for this
exact moment.
And that's why they can put up a stronger fight, as opposed to all of the other Latin American
countries like Cuba, and clearly like Venezuela.
Venezuela was a really important moment for Donald Trump.
It caused him to feel emboldened.
That was when, you know, Marco Rubio's pressure actually fucking worked.
Speaking of pressure, by the way, Ali Gargiani says, some American soldiers have been captured.
They are lying that five to six American soldiers have been killed.
Later, under the pretext of an accident, they will inflate the number of casualties.
He also said, when the enemy attacks us from bases in the region, we respond, and we
will continue to respond.
This is our right and a standing policy.
countries must either prevent the U.S. from using their territory against Iran, or we will
have no choice but to do it ourselves.
Tabaa, a small resort town on Egypt's border with Israel, has become a transit hub for Israel
and foreign nation seeking to leave the country or return home after Israel closes airspace.
Amidst its ongoing war with Iran.
There you go. That's a little Egypt update for you.
How are Republicans still in favor of this war?
What are the Republicans still in favor of this war?
They're cattle. They're cattle. They're cattle. They're in a cult.
MAGA is a cult. The Republican voter base is a fucking cult.
Okay. They went from unpopular. They went from saying no war in Iran is something that we do not
want. This is unpopular too. Actually we love it now that Trump has done it and he said he likes it
so we like it too. That's it. There's no other way to read it. They're just fucking cattle.
And yeah. There's no other, there's no reason to read it as anything but that. The gray MPC
chip meme is so real when it comes to Republicans. Like they swapped the isolationism chip with
the we like war now chip, okay? And just like that, in a matter of less than a fucking week,
they turned around and decided they like war with Iran, make America great again is make
Israel great again. I got the firmware update. I love that.
Well, as part of the shield of the America summit, then he will attend the dignified
transfer with the first lady and members of his cabinet to pay his respects.
by the way, and Iran were doing very well.
One week after the US and Israel launched joint military
strikes against Iran, President Trump gave the ongoing
operation high marks.
Somebody said, how would you score it from zero to 10?
I said, I'd give it a 12 to a 15.
Their army is gone there.
Just about, look, their navy is gone.
The president ramped up pressure on Tehran Friday,
declaring in a truth social post,
There will be no deal with Iran except unconditional surrender,
but Iran shows little sign of backing down.
Multiple sources tell CBS News Russia
is providing Iran with intelligence
about US positions in the region.
In an interview airing Sunday on 60 Minutes,
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told CBS News Chief Washington
correspondent Major Garrett, the US is tracking everything.
Does this put US personnel in any more danger
than they otherwise would be?
Well, no one's putting us in danger.
We're putting the other guys in danger.
That's our job.
So we're not concerned about that.
We mitigate it as we need to.
Our commanders factor all of this,
but the only ones that need to be worried right now
are Iranians that think they're going to live.
The White House hasn't put a timetable on the war,
but indicated it believes its objectives
could be met within four to six weeks.
And the president made clear he wants
to say in selecting who will lead Iran,
saying in an interview to CNN it's gonna work very easily.
It's going to work like it did in Venezuela.
He wants to take an interest in pursuing
who the next leader of the Iranian country is going to be
and that has yet to be seen
and the president is discussing it and deliberating it.
In that same interview,
the president also cautioned that Cuba could fall soon.
Yeah, that's the other side of this fucking dumb ass story.
It is, it is wild that Donald Trump thinks that he could just like, I don't know, become
one of the, one of the special 88 clerics that gets to pick the next Ayatollah somehow.
But he just like fundamentally doesn't understand Iranian society.
He doesn't understand how the, the governor structure works.
who doesn't understand the Iranian capabilities.
And you can kind of be on autopilot
if you're America for the most part.
You can be run by like a bloodthirsty madman,
especially because what are people supposed to do?
America gets to do whatever it wants, right?
Until an unstoppable force meets an immovable object.
moveable object. Iran is the immovable object. So now there's this clash. Trump is still
operating on, you know, a previous understanding that he gets to do whatever he wants. Except
he doesn't get to do whatever he wants here. Obviously, over and over again, they're there
They're in the oh shit Iran has hands actually moment.
In their calculations.
In addition to addressing today's summit, ousted homeland security secretary Christine
Elm is also set to deliver remarks here in her new role as special envoy for the shield
of the Americas.
Adriana.
Nicole, thank you so much.
The Russian ambassador to the UK has told Sky News that his country is-
Oh, this is also really funny.
Russia, Russian Ambassador to the UK says Russia is not neutral in the Iran War.
There's also that too.
Not neutral in the Iran War.
Andrade Kelley says the action being taken against Tehran is simply unfair.
And Russia is supportive of Iran.
You're speaking to Sir Trevor Phillips.
Is Russia going to come to the aid of Iran in any way?
Russia and Iran have been allies. The Iranians have supplied expertise and material to Russia.
Would you, for example, consider supplying Iran with munitions, drones, and so on?
You know that we have all sympathies with Iran. We are neighbors. We are historically – we
have had always very good relationship with Iran. But for the moment, as it has
been announced yesterday, Iran didn't ask for any assistance or help.
And if they were to ask, Russia would consider that request seriously and make assistance
available.
Well, you know, we are not only sympathetic with Iran, but we are also sympathetic with
the countries of personal golf with all areas.
We have interest in all of them including Iran and the best will be of course to stop
immediately any aggression over the year, any aggression, any implementation or force
over the year and to come back to the peaceful solution, negotiated and diplomatic solutions.
This is interesting because most of the Gulf Corporation Council countries have come
amount in support of the Israeli and American action. Is Russia going to be neutral in this?
We are not neutral. No, we are neutral. We are supportive to Iran, of course, and we
consider, as I have said, very negatively what is being done. And besides, we do not
understand this logic. It is the logic at the moment of Western countries or one of
is that Iran is to blame for everything but no one is saying that the US and Israel has
initiated an attack against Iran and Iran is only responding to this attack.
So this is simply unfair.
Yeah, um, uh-oh
Uh-oh
Hold on
my shit ass
Gamer laptop is
Having a hard time with all the tabs
We got to wait it out
We got to wait it out until it fixes itself. Yes. Peace out. Peace out. Yeah. Peace out.
Bro leaked an empty notepad. No, it's a tab that's just like won't load. Time to kill
some tabs. I can't even kill any of the tabs because it just shut down entirely. Okay,
we got to reopen them
hold on
The, uh,
hold on, I just got to go to my history again.
Fuck.
Durante es tus últimos.
I see.
As we achieve it.
Okay.
I'm doing it, I'm doing it.
I just have to reopen all my tabs slowly, but surely piece by piece.
How can you claim to be rich if you can only afford tap water?
I'm a broke boy.
Please subscribe.
I already control shift to teed. I got it all. Okay
I don't know where the other I can't find the other tab the last tab that I clicked on

I bought another house. I bought a house on top of my house. You know what I'm saying

Europe spent three years 100 billion euros solving its Russian gas problem and succeeded to replace the pipeline dependency on a hostile state
With maritime dependency on a straight that at a different hostile state just closed
Yeah, America is once again
America is literally fucking over Europe. Okay?
Okay. Anytime, anytime America moves in, in the, in the unstable ways that it moves, Europe
gets fucked in the process. And it's so funny because they never learned this lesson for
some weird reason. It's really hard to read recent events as anything other than an enormous
fuck you to a Europe that has essentially done everything the US asked of it reward
for total capitulation on Russian inputs is being kicked in the face and, and called
a vassal slave. Yes, because that is the reality. And if I'm sorry, if Greenland didn't help
you wake up to that reality, nothing will.
Oh, also, the thing I wanted to show you is, you know how Russia said, yes, we are not
impartial in the Iran war. We are, you know, on the side of Iran. Here's what Donald
Trump said instead.
It will start learning the lesson local elections happening in Germany and some big states like
Bavaria.
Yeah, except the lesson that they will learn is we must become more fascist.
That's the unfortunate.
That's the unfortunate side of this like instability.
Oh, you know what it is guys, actually, why are we in this predicament?
Not because we are vassals to America, but because brown people are in our borders inside
of our borders, they've infiltrated our borders, they've penetrated our borders.
We must get more ruthless towards the migrants.
I hope that's not the case.
But I do feel like anytime there's any, anytime there's like economic instability in Europe,
they turn around and go, Oh yeah, let's hit the fucking migrant extinction button
harder.
And it's hilarious because those who actually,
those who actually take advantage of the culture war phenomena and the anti
immigrant sentiment are those who are even more servile to NATO and even more
servile to American interests. They're literally saying it's MAGA time.
They're in Europe,
LARPing like they're, you know, American MAGA supporters, Guy Laurent on Twitter
posted a thread that indicates your theory of a Trump's Gulf strategy.
Already the case, CDU closed integration courses.
As a German voting tomorrow I can confirm you are completely right. Yeah
It's so funny the more the more right-wingers become pro-America the more the rest of the country becomes
Anti-America but what they failed to comprehend is that when right-wingers win they become even more pro-America
I don't know how much more vassalized Europe could get
But it's like, it's not even a secret that the European far right movement is basically
tailoring its movement, not from historic fascism, even though there is some elements
of historic fascism in it.
But the modern version of fascism, which is MAGA, it's very obvious.
Anyway, Spain has been getting a lot of, you know, Turkish love out there for its
It's statements not only on Palestine, but it's statements against Israel, it's statements
against America.
Pedro Sanchez has successfully PSO'd me or however you say pay, pay, pay SOED whatever
however you say it, he PSO'd me, okay.
He did.
He's so handsome and so charming.
And I am so desperate for anyone to speak out against America that I will fucking,
I will absolutely, gladly volunteer myself.
Pessoed.
He says, we are not alone, those were the same people who told us when.
We recognized the state of Palestine, and then it was everyone else that we were alone.
No.
We are not alone.
We are the first.
We are the first.
I'll tell you more.
We're seeing it already.
We're seeing how many other governments are already taking a stand against this war.
Those who are going to be left alone are the ones who defend the indefensible.
So I guess the reason why I'm bringing this up is because he's like, this is the center
left, right?
And they've done a better job of reading the room than the labor party has.
But it's good because this actually does give confidence to other left parties in Europe
to also use the instability and the anger that people have
to cut a new lane for themselves.
Green, the greens in the U.K. are doing this
in the absence of labor's refusal to read the room.
So, we shall see. They aren't doing well in the polls though. We'll see. We'll see how
well they do.
... between the US and Iran goes way back.
... states like the ...
... Iran war. How do we get here?
... constitute an axis of evil. If Iran cheats, we can catch them and we will.

They're a nation of terror and we won't put up with it.
...
It's a complex relationship shaped by years of Western intervention control over oil and regional alliances
The relationship between Iran and America has been
Rancorous turbulent and torturous really and now when you chapter started with US Israeli strikes taking out Iran's leader
Hundreds of civilians paying the price for ongoing attack. It's crazy to talk about how we got here and not talk about 1953
Like that's where this actually begins
The notion that like the Iranian people just like hate us for no reason is so stupid or
Oh, they you know, we've been interfering in the affairs of Iran for like the last 40 years like no, it goes far beyond that
Okay
I mean it goes even further beyond 1953, but like 1953 is the pivot point
Okay
Mosadec, democratically elected Mosadec, pisses off the British and specifically British petroleum
by demanding more sovereignty and demanding more control over their natural resources,
specifically oil.
And their demands are quite reasonable, as a matter of fact.
And this is the aftermath.
This is, you know, the Cold War, this is the aftermath of World War II.
And British capital goes to America and says, you got to fix this.
You got to deal with this.
America comes in, does a regime change, and installs or hardens the power of the
Shah and trains the secret police, Savak, which is a really ruthless and really repressive force.
In Iran, so much so that inevitably there is a revolution decades after, a popular revolution.
Maybe they'll talk about all that.
And now a full regional war.
There is concern about what happens next and where this actually ends.
We're standing on this cliff and peering over the edge and not sure what's going to be there.
So how do we get here?
I'm Oleg Nikita O'Lynan and this, as Skynes explains, it's important to say that relations
between the US and Iran didn't start in 1953 and Iran has its own rich history which
precedes all of this
but to understand the dynamic between the u.s. and the islamic republic
let's start at nineteen fifty three
okay nevermind
british in u.s. back to overthrow the country's democratically elected and
secular prime minister mahamid mosada it's so funny people would like as
recently as like a couple years ago people come in my chat and act like
this wasn't real by the way
same with chile
there are like uh... there is like a johnny harris contingency of nat's
liberals that make it seem like America's intervention in Iran was marginal at best
inconsequential and that it was totally organic and and the same goes for Chile
as well where they would act like they still do to this day they act like the
the public state we installed in Chile and and the Chicago boys and their
influence in Chile was like totally inconsequential and that's all the
Missouri and they was not an objectively popular figure that was democratically elected.
It's totally ridiculous.
You don't need to listen to these people if they say, if they tell you that like America
did not intervene in both of these incidents directly, they're not, they're not sincere
people.
Wanted to nationalize Iran's oil.
Bro, ask me one more time if Trump is in a k-hole, dude.
A stominate whack-horn, our international affairs editor who's reported on Iran for decades.
The British had effectively sort of sewn up Iran's oil very much in their interest,
and this was a direct threat to the British, and they called on an American help.
Okay, we need a bit of context about oil.
Iran has some of the biggest oil reserves in the world, and in the early 1900s,
a former Shah, the monarch, made a deal with a British businessman that gave Britain the
rights to explore and explore a lot of Iran's oil.
And the deal led to the creation of the Anglo-Persian company, which is the origins of where BP came
from, British Petroleum.
And you might be wondering, if it was about protecting British oil interests, then what's
in it for the Americans?
I would say it's a combination between the oil issue and the communism.
oil was the main concern of British and possibly communism was the main concern of the Americans.
And it was the strength of the Iranian Communist Party, which was a homegrown party, of course
aligned to Moscow, but very much the only structural party with a nationwide organization
and more, which probably swayed the Americans.
So working with Iranian opposition groups, CIA operatives inside Iran and MI6 made
For the record, Mosaddegh was not a communist, nor was he aligned with the Soviets at all.
Make no mistake on that. I mean, he was a, he was a nationalist like he, and at a time
when the term meant something different. When I say nationalist for countries that are
under colonial subjugation, that's very different. It's a, it's a liberationist
movement. It's an emancipatory movement like Hamas is a nationalist movement, right?
It's not the same as like the Nazis, it's ridiculous to make that claim.
These are revolutionary movements.
Mossadegh was a social democrat.
What had overthrew the prime minister?
There were CIA operatives that were controlling things or managing things, but it was very
much an Iranian operation.
There was a vast array of opponents in Mossadegh.
The result?
Mossadegh was arrested, tried for treason and put in prison, and the U.S. back
Shah Mohammed Reza Pallavi was restored to power and ruled Iran as an absolute
monarch for the next 26 years. Even though the US now admits that it was
involved in the coup, it took decades for an official confirmation to come out.
But now declassified CIA documents show you just how involved the agency was.
Take a look at this document titled The Battle for Iran. It says here that the
military coup that overthrew Mossadegh in his national front cabinet was
carried out under CIA direction as an act of US foreign policy conceived and
approved at the highest levels of government so while the coup helped
restore British interests it really brought by the way if you want to
understand how that took place look no further than like any kind of quote-unquote
anti-government protests to take place in places like Cuba take place
in places like Iran still to this day. You go in, you take over newspapers, you build
like civil society organizations, front organizations, you try to, you try to heighten the flames
of tension internally. It's a totally astroturfed and you bring about like some kind of color
revolution to give it a domestic feel. You try to make it seem like there's a real popular
revolution, right?
It was intervention in Iran into the picture. But over the course of the Shah's reign,
he became increasingly unpopular.
As the economy kind of turned against him, and economic fortunes turned against him,
He resorted more and more to repression and the instrument of repression was the Savak.
The Iranian secret police were more and more brutal and he led a life of conspicuous wealth.
The perception I think for the Iranian people was, while they were suffering economically,
he was living this life of luxury.
Alongside this, a range of opposition groups gained popularity and protests and calls
for change within the country also grew.
different groups, the leftist groups, the nationalist groups, the religious groups.
All of these groups kind of coalesce eventually and they come under the
umbrella of Aytolorua and the Khomeini.
Khomeini was a religious scholar and a vocal critic of the Shah, so much so
that he was exiled in 1964 and didn't come back from France until the Shah
fell in 1979. The 1979 revolution was a revolution of sovereignty, independence,
freedom. This whole anti-American sense, anti-American as an anti-pupilism was a
part of it. So the 1979 revolution is really important because it marked the
start of the Islamic Republic with Ruhollah Khomeini as the supreme leader
of Iran in a system of government that still exists today. So how did the US
few of revolution. Well you've got this anti-western Islamist government coming
into power having deposed a pro-western shah and so the stage is set for you know
a total deterioration in relations between Iran and outside Western powers most
of all America. But over the years the Islamic Republic has heavily expanded its
control over the population and there's many ways they've done that
like mass surveillance, using internet shutdowns and its morality police. All
All of this has made it really difficult and really dangerous for people inside Iran
who disagree with the regime.
And how popular has the regime been over the years?
It depends who you talk to I think, and it's hard to say because it's hard to go there,
it's hard to operate when you go there, and if you do go there you are in the care of
government appointed hosts, if you like, or minders, however you want to characterize
them on the underground.
I remember one guy came up to me and he said, don't listen to a word they say,
they're lying.
And in the decades following the revolution, there have been multiple protests, ranging from
issues around the economy to women's rights, and they show the level of resistance to the
existing government.
This includes the women life freedom movement, following the death of Masarami, a 22-year-old
woman who died in custody after Iran's morality police claimed she wasn't wearing her hijab
properly.
I think you could argue that going back and looking at some of the first large
protests, maybe 1999 some of the students protests in Iran, that Iran has been in a constant
state of protest since then because each of these movements have popped up and asked for
different things that have never been given to by the state. So each of these movements.
That's also not true. Pressure amounts, the government retreats, they are incredibly
repressive at times. They didn't really factor in the Iran-Iraq war into this
equation that also hardened the government's position, again, due to American, like America
has basically used the Baathas movement and Iraq as a weapon to wield against Iran. Okay.
That's a major part of the Islamic Republic, like hardening their position. They also, weirdly
enough. Don't talk about like the other side of the revolutionary forces within this popular
revolution. They briefly mentioned like socialist communists and the like, but it obviously plays
a big role in the revolution, major role in the revolution is a real part of the popular
mobilization. And that all completely gets destroyed after the Iraq war. It was very
bloody. It was very brutal. America gave Iraq a shit ton of weapons, including chemical
weapons that then Saddam Hussein used on his own people as well. Yes, Lajjani says that
there are real dead soldiers. This is actually his real account. They didn't even talk about
the students to cover the U.S. Embassy in Tehran and piece back the documents? Yeah.
And so Hassan Nasrallah throwback the T. The T means timeout to stop the hate.
That's what it means. That's what Hassan Nasrallah was doing. No, the T is they
will come in vertically and they will leave horizontally as in if you come
and try to invade Lebanon, you will come in vertically
on your feet and you will leave in coffins.
In any case, that basically destroys what remains
of like any kind of leftist movement in the country.
Some align with Saddam.
And then outside of that the government uses that as a as a reason to to gut a real left flank
opposition to themselves
By arresting torturing mass imprisoning a shit ton of socialist and communists
and
Yeah
Have continued to compound on each other. It's very dangerous in the library to spate a protest in rod
You think this is as many gold
chat or are you in the right
chat? Are you all right?
Yeah.
Is that what you think is going
on? Dude, I'm so worried. I'm
so worried. I'm going to have
no juice remaining by the time
my speech comes up.
I'm going to go ahead and
I'm going to go ahead and
I'm going to go ahead and
I'm going to go ahead and
my speech comes up. I'm actually legit fucked up.
In the years immediately after the revolution and the decades that followed, there are so
many events that led to a fracturing relationship between the US and Iranian officials. Let's
take a look at a few of them. 1979 was the start of the hostage crisis, which saw
52 Americans held in the U.S. Embassy in Tehran for 444 days, which led to U.S. sanctions
on Iran. In the 1980s, the U.S. supported the Iraqi side of the Iran-Iran War, where hundreds
of thousands of people died. And in 1988, the U.S. shot down an Iranian commercial plane,
killing 290 people, which the U.S. said it mistook for an Iranian fighter jet. And
the U.S. attitude towards Iran summed up in this speech.
Wow. All of the unimaginably destabilizing incidents in rapid fire. Like, if you want to understand
why Iranians say Matic-Bad-Medic America, this is it. Like, this is a huge fucking blow after
blow after blow. Like, the Iran-Iraq war was incredibly fucking deadly, dude. The casualties
were in the millions. Like what are we fucking talking about? How do you, like the student
protestors took over the American Embassy.
They're talking about it like this is a you know a real militancy that engaged
in this. What's your voter history? What do you think dumbass? I'm a Republican
life long. Sorry. Maybe you weren't being me. Maybe you were genuinely interested.
Lifelong MAGA supporter. I've been voting. I've been voting for Donald Trump before he even had
ambitions of higher office. And the decades that followed, there are so many events that led
to a fracturing relationship between the US and Iranian officials. Let's take a look at
few of them. 1979 was the start of the hostage crisis, which saw 52 Americans held in the
US Embassy in Tehran for 444 days, which led to a US...
Yes, 1980s is the Iran-Iraq war...
...where hundreds of thousands of people died. And in 1988, the US shot down an Iranian commercial
plane, killing 290 people, which the US said it mistook for an Iranian fighter jet.
I think if I recall correctly, they also refuse to apologize for it initially as well, right?
And the US attitude towards Iran summed up in this speech by President George Bush in
2002.
States like these and their terrorist allies constitute an axis of evil.
It's fair to say that no American presidents had particularly productive relations with
the Iranians from Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, both Bushes, Bill Clinton.
I think by the time you get to Barack Obama, relations are so sour and there is so much
suspicion and paranoia, particularly amongst Iranians that it's very hard for them to take
seriously any American rapprochement.
But there's a topic we haven't discussed yet, nuclear weapons.
But it's not a conversation that's left in history.
It's still going on today, with Donald Trump referring to it as one of the reasons why they're
seeing US strikes in Iran right now.
This terrorist regime can never have a nuclear weapon.
Talking about Iran's nuclear capabilities really deserves its own episode, but basically
the US and a lot of the international community have long feared that Iran could be building
its own nuclear weapon.
Right now there's no confirmed evidence that they've built one, and Iran's always
denied it.
But it's really complicated.
Their critics and most skeptics have always assumed that the Iranians were trying to build
a nuclear weapon with their nuclear program, because the level to which they've been enriching
uranium over the years far exceeds what you need for civilian purposes.
And they have used, though, the threat of the way they've been perceived to try to
build the bomb as a way of effectively blackmailing the international community.
But there was a breakthrough between the US, Iran and other countries back in 2015.
Under the deal, Iran agreed to significantly limit its nuclear activities and let international
inspectors in, in exchange for economic sanctions being lifted.
That didn't open relations, but it kind of brought every temperature down until President Trump.
As you just…
Yeah, there's only one other problem here with this coverage.
There's one country that opposed that every step of the way, and that country is Israel.
Barack Obama facilities, JCPOA, it's a multilateral agreement that literally factors in China,
Russia, European allies.
The International Atomic Energy Agency is basically designed 90% for Iran.
It's the only country that they worry about.
the level of surveillance that the Western powers have over the Iranian nuclear program
is incredible. Once again, Iran allows them to do everything. Iran says, sure, if you're
going to give a sanctions relief, we will literally do anything and everything to get
that sanctions relief. We will allow your investigators to be inside of our walls, basically.
Benjamin Innow comes to the United States of America once this deal is signed, angrily.
He's invited by the Republican opposition and welcomed by the likes of Chuck Schumer
at the time. Very controversial. He delivers a speech to Congress against the wishes
of Barack Obama. So this level of like Israeli penetration in American politics goes far beyond
this last iteration, okay? And then, of course, Donald Trump wins. And when Donald Trump wins,
he throws, he rips the deal apart. Iranians don't even get like full sanctions relief,
by the way, we just released some of their assets that we had frozen. That's the level
of control we have. Can you just put the speech on? What speech? I'm about to speak later in
the night.
Fuck, it didn't last long. Trump withdrew from it, calling it.
The horror show.
Bringing the temperature back up.
It's a terrible deal. The minute I collapsed that deal and terminated it, Iran went
in a very bad direction.
Although we've spoken a lot about the relationship between U.S. and Iranian officials, there are
a lot more countries that we need to mention.
Since the 1979 revolution, the U.S. had become a dominant force in the Middle East, both
in terms of its influence and military power.
In response, Iran began building its own sphere of influence, starting with Hezbollah
in Lebanon.
So now, let's turn to the current situation.
I mean, Hezbollah is also a organic development in Lebanon, also, again, as a consequence of
Israel's interventions in Lebanon, Israel leaned heavily into sectarian and religious
conflict inside of Lebanon.
The Shia population was getting slaughtered by the phalanges, fascist militias in Lebanon.
Israel backed the phalanges, militias.
There were unimaginable untold amounts of massacres that took place.
Like Hezbollah is a organic development.
To say that they were, to say that they're like Iranian agents is a very Western approach
to it.
It's also complete fucking bullshit.
Once again, very strange that like this analysis does not factor Israel as the equation
at all when it is playing a major role.
behind the scenes and sometimes directly. If you just simply say, Hezbollah was formed
by Iran and move on, it's not even a simplistic take. It's not even a reductive take. You're
just basically lying at that point, right?
My groups in the region include a loose coalition often called the Axis of Resistance. That's
a series of militias, groups and governments in different countries across the region,
Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, like we mentioned, the Houthis in Yemen and various
groups in Iraq and Syria. These are all individual groups that have been close allies for Iran.
As for the U.S., it's allies-
Like a lot of these countries have massive Shia populations, okay? Either like a significant
minority group or a Shia plurality or an outright Shia majority.
is in the case in Bahrain. And Iran has obviously funded and armed these Shia groups and trained
these Shia groups, and uses the Shia groups as a, you know, a response measure. But a lot of the,
a lot of the Shia groups themselves were formed
to defend the local Shia populations against the other side of the equation, Saudi Arabia,
Western-backed involvement by way of Saudi Arabia, the Wahhabist groups, the Salafi groups like
ISIS, al-Qaeda, Daesh, these groups have, these Sunni groups have been slaughtering Shia populations
over and over again. But the one exception being Hamas. Hamas is a organic militancy that was
formed that is Sunni.
Notably Israel, but also Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait and the UAE. Oman
is neutral and even helped facilitate talks between Iran and the US before the war. But
it's been drawn into it after it was hit by Iran. And the relationship between.
Yeah, it's like funny that she says access of resistance, resistance against what? Resistance
against what? They're not just like, what are they resisting against? Like, you know,
taxes? Like what's their goal? What's their purpose? I'll tell you what it is Western
imperialism, okay? On their Israeli imperialism, that is what they're resisting against, that
literally that's what it is. Yeah, Hezbollah or a mere proxy, unlike that Catholic militia
in the 80s, the Israel created a microstate consisting of a few hundred meters of the
Lebanese side of the Israeli border, like for two years before being trashed like
a use condom.
Over the years really matters, but what's changed is that a lot of them have been weakened.
For example, Hamas and Hezbollah.
So that brings us to today.
Well, Donnie allegedly got attacked.
What the fuck?
This is a four month old article chatter, what are you talking about?
What do you what do you mean?
Anyway, let's finish this up.
Very large boom, you'll be one aware that that is an air race siren that has been activated.
And the war in the Middle East that marks a whole new chapter for this story.
The United States military began major combat operations in Iran.
Just days before this though, the US and Iran were in fact in talks.
On the one hand, we're seeing a build-up of military hardware and our Mada that was building up quite close to Iran.
And on the other hand, we were seeing the nuclear talks beginning again indirectly between the United States and Iran.
And those who were mediators like the Omanis, for example, who were shuffling between the two sides,
were actually indicating that things were moving quite well and that they were positive signs coming out.
But since then, the targeted killing of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Hameini marked the start of a whole series of Israeli and U.S. strikes on Iran and its allies.
And in return, Iran's responded, hitting Israel and other U.S. allies across the region.
The killing of Iran's Supreme Leader is such a big moment in history.
I'm for the Iranian people, yes.
I will always stand with victims of of American and Israeli imperialism, no matter how unpopular
that might seem.
I am an anti-imperialist.
What is this question?
Well, I feel very anxious for what's to come.
That's what's scary is we're standing on this cliff and peering over the edge and
not sure what's going to be there.
many civilians in Iran are paying the price for this collapse in the relationship between the US
and the Islamic Republic. Yeah there was a far greater number of people obviously morning come in
a uh however of course uh we don't know what the real number of people who are celebrating would
look like anyway because there is state repression obviously um not that it fucking matters because
America's involvement has nothing to do with like America's involvement has nothing to do with
like the the emancipatory goals of the the you know certain sub-sex of of iranian population
it's totally ridiculous uh they're not even trying that hard to be honest they've completely
given up on that as a matter of fact this is so sick there's not going after the regime is going
after the people of Iran so pathetic destroying iran's infrastructure that belongs to the nation
the people of Iran not the regime reveals who is running the war and why iran is a target iran
I'm ashamed of myself to support this shit war in the beginning.
At least some of the people are beginning to understand what the actual goals were here.
You know, Iranians are very smart people unless they're like directly ultra Zionist, which some of them are.
Unless they're like talking from Israel directly.
Many of those Iranians will quickly recognize what they were supporting.
Iran's state media says that over a thousand civilians in Iran have been killed so far.
That includes an explosion at a school in Minab that killed more than 160 people.
Most of them were children.
The US government has listed a whole range of reasons for starting this war,
like regime change in Iran.
When we are finished, take over your government.
It will be yours to take.
To destroying missiles.
We're going to destroy their missiles and raise their missile industry to the ground.
Alongside its own interests, the US has also spoken about Israeli interests, one of Iran's
biggest rivals.
We knew that there was going to be an Israeli action.
We knew that that would precipitate an attack against American forces.
And we knew that if we didn't preemptively go after them before they launched those
attacks, we would suffer higher casualties.
And Israel's been vocal about its ambitions in Iran.
This is going to be a quick and decisive action, and we're going to create the conditions first
for the Iranian people to get control of their destiny.
And this war has spread regionally with Israeli strikes on Lebanon and Iranian strikes on
countries across the Gulf.
It's reached places where frankly the United States and Israel probably didn't anticipate
that the Iranians would target.
We've seen civilian areas in places like Dubai hit, we've seen luxury hotels hit, places that
perhaps, you know, they just didn't think the Iranians would go there.
But with the death of Hanyi, there are still so many questions about what happens next.
Yeah, I wonder why they went there.
Perhaps there's something to do with the fact that you decapitated their leadership
the first opening salvo which of course automatically triggered the contingency plan of this like
defense mosaic structure that they've designed in the you know extremely chaotic scenario
where you do just that.
So yeah now they're fucking firing off on all cylinders as they were as I guess they
they said they would and they never did.
Also killed an entire school full of little schoolgirls.
That's, you know, that's obviously gonna be very frustrating.
The Islamic Republic is not defined by Khomeini.
This is not the singular leader.
It doesn't start and end with him.
People in Iran are one fearing for their lives, right?
They're inside trying to dodge any type of airstrikes,
but they're also getting text messages
security officials warning them to not go outside.

Two in custody after suspicious device found us at a Gracie mansion amid anti-Islam protest.
We'll talk about the mythic thing in a second. Where is the video? There is a video that you wanted me to look at.
This is the NYP briefing on it.
I don't know what the fuck's going on in New York, but apparently there was like a vigil
by like a Marxist-Leninist transgender group for Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
And then and then like the fucking asshole Jake Lang came in and was like literally
fucking a goat.
Jake Lang came in and was straight up having sex with a goat.
Okay. Yeah, we got to swap it over. We got to swap the cameras over and get ready to
mobilize here. Yeah, you can take it now. Hold on.
was LeBron doing? No, like an actual goat, like, man goat. Okay. Brother pound the red
bulls. I'm going to in a second. And then today that was yesterday, the goat thing.
And then today there was a roasted pig that was dumps dumped outside of Effie's and
Israeli and kosher cafe where Lang's people shall not be a blonde woman and others ate
earlier. They brought the pig and a smoker in the back of a truck parked down the
street with a confederate flag on the back. Um, new counterparts already began to assemble
in front Jake Lang. So then there were counter protests that came in. Are you saying, are
you just saying shit that just say shit? Or is this America? No, this is literally
what's going on, bro. Look at the shit. You're crashing. Take a nap.
I see that keep running your mouth. Keep running your mouth, baby boy.
I don't know. New York City's my city. NYPD apparently was escorting Jake Lang themselves.
Free the goat slash kill yourself, chant underway. As a white supremacist, Jake Lang and his
fascist gaggle remains stuck in the middle of the street behind a wall of NYPD officers.
And he doesn't even have like enough people to mobilize.
Um, isn't Jake Lang Jewish?
Yes, but he's also an anti-Semite.
Um, he, I think he's a Mossad agent for the record.
I'm not even kidding. I think he's straight up a fucking agent of Mossad. So anyway, he now is also anti-Semitic.
I mean, he has literally gone to Israel, kissed the wall, did the Tefillin, had a bar mitzvah in Israel.
But now he's decided, because he was outed as being Jewish.
if you can, I mean it's a very weird sequence of words but because he was a
part of a movement that was like super super Islamophobic and then he was
outed as being Jewish and then ever since then he's become like very
anti-Semitic as well. Yes, outed, like literally outed because I know it sounds
fucking crazy but they're Nazis so yeah this is the only place where like
being outed as being Jewish is significant. Do you understand?
Yes, he was doing b-sheality to a goat to show everyone what Muslims do, I guess.
I don't even know how the fuck he got a goat in New York City.
But the point here is not for him to look reasonable.
He's not reasonable at all.
The point of here is for him to start shit so that people react violently.
But I guess when the altercations were taking place, someone like had a smoke grenade?
They were arrested?
This is like right near Gracie mansion near Zoran's house where Zoran's living with the
mayor's mansion.
Two people were taken into custody on Saturday after special device were found inside of
Gracie mansion.
The official residence of the mayor of New York City, the incident occurred amid anti-Islam
demonstrators being held outside of Gracie mansion by conservative influencer Jake
Lang.
It was not immediately clear of Mayor's arm on Donnie and the first lady Rahman
DeWaji were at home at the time of spokesperson for the New York police
department said in a statement that two suspicious devices were found outside
of the mayor's home.
The NYPD spokesperson added that there were no injuries and the
investigations remain ongoing.
A representative from on Donnie did not immediately return a request for comment.
Anyway, I gotta put my shoes on and get ready, but that's the, that's
the other side of the story, getting back to Operation Epstein's Fury.
Iran's retaliatory strikes, though, continue not only in Israel, but at other neighbors
in the Gulf.
This as a third U.S. Navy aircraft carrier strike group is now expected to join in the
fight against Iran.
In moments, I will be speaking live with Israeli President Isaac Herzog.
But first, let's go live to Tel Aviv, where Nate Boy is on the ground with the very latest.
Hi, Nate.
Hey, Aisha.
Yeah, Iran continues firing on its neighbors today, even after President Mazur Pizeschkin
promised that they would.
And Pizeschkin is one of the three people on Iran's interim leadership council.
Iran's military seemingly not getting that message or not on the same page in the
in the past hour, targeting an air base in Saudi Arabia
and hitting a tower in Dubai with an Iranian drone.
Take a look, this isn't the first time
that Dubai has been attacked.
Even just today, the Dubai International Airport
got hit with an Iranian drone early this morning.
And shortly before that, a drone damaged
in an oil facility in southern Iraq.
Iran also claims it hit an oil tanker
in the Strait of Hormuz today.
Meanwhile, Israel is launching more strikes in Beirut.
So far this weekend, they've hit 170 Hezbollah military sites.
Sirens are also blaring in northern Israel this hour.
Meanwhile, the U.S. bombing campaign continues in Tehran.
President Trump promised a big wave of attacks today.
As so far, the U.S. has struck 3,000 targets in Iran during the first week of Operation
Epic Fury.
The U.S. has also sunk at least 42 ships as the U.S. continues degrading Iran's
offensive and defensive capabilities.
However, those capabilities still exist as we have seen in Tel Aviv today.
Iran has fired ballistic missiles here and at Central Israel several times.
We've seen intercept missiles go off behind us, and Israel's air defense has been effective.
We'll send it back to you, Aishah.
Okay, Nate Foy, reporting live for us.
Nate, thank you.
For more on the ongoing conflict with Iran, let's bring in now the president of Israel,
Isaac Herzog, President Herzog, thank you so much for being on the program with us today.
Thank you, Ayesha. It's a pleasure. I want to start with what the President
has said about what he needs from Iran. He has continuously said he wants an unconditional
surrender. He won't accept anything else. What does that look like to you, sir?
It looks like a major sea change in world history, meaning finally somebody has taken
head on this ongoing repeated pain and agony that has emanated from the Middle East and
says, enough is enough.
And I think the president's decisions throughout have been bold, have been clear-minded, have
been unique and clearly historical in the fact that he's
leading a different path for the Middle East.
I heard today the leader, Sheikh Mouhamad Benzai,
the leader of the United Arab Emirates.
He spoke beautifully.
And he is one of a kind, like all other leaders there,
who've been bombarded by Iranians.
And the issue is that there's a coalition of nations
in the Middle East who says enough is enough.
We're fed up.
You guys are there in terror.
But you can't do this anymore.
You cannot spread terror.
You cannot spread havoc.
You cannot say America is the big Satan, Israel is the little
Satan.
You cannot build terror cells all over the world.
That's over.
And that's why we are working in an incredible partnership
between President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu,
who both have taken outstanding decisions together now
with all the leaders in the region,
just to bring a different path for the future of the world, in fact.
President, you know regime changes are very...
Okay, I'm going to keep running this and I'm going to swap it. You can hide it for a second way. Actually, let me call the Uber first.
I'm going to call the Uber first.
And then, yeah, we're going to move over to Northwestern U.
Momos ago Iran bombed Kuwait's international airport. Nice. Great. Fantastic. What do you do, you know?
Is March giving you the finger, I don't know is he maybe
I'm calling it Uber right now.
Sorry.
Yeah.
Israel saying Israel, uh, giving advice on how Iran can be a better neighbor is crazy.
Like you're a nuclear armed country and you are objectively the worst neighbor anyone
could be.
And not only that, but also then having the audacity to bring up the UAE as the best
kind of neighbor.
Well, that gives the game away a little bit, don't you think?
You know?
from each other to defend my thesis in veterinary medicine later hell yeah
appears that the iranian regime is expecting we're moving at some point
us and is right i want to see you on the other side everybody the foreign minister
of iran talking about what they expect listen president trump has not ruled out
boots on the ground in iran are you afraid of a us invasion in your country
No, we are waiting for them.
You are waiting for the U.S. military to invade the ground troops?
Yes, because we are confident that we can confront them, and that would be a big disaster
for them.
President Herzog, are you expecting to send any Israeli troops into Iran?
No, and I don't think anybody is expecting to see American troops in Iran as well.
I think part of the comments of the Iranian Foreign Minister is in order to impact American
public opinion and scare American public opinion.
You've got to understand Aisha.
First and foremost, we are both in this unique partnership, are delineating the power of
the Iranian military, revolutionary guards, and the extreme cruelty of their regime.
We are weakening them and when you are weakening them, they will be confronted with major questions
including from their public.
We know that there's havoc in that regime.
We know that there's huge debates, arguments and total disarray in that leadership.
We know it.
And that's why there's a process that will take place which will bring their demise
and end.
It doesn't require troops on the ground for that matter.
It requires constant pressure because there's a given moment where everybody says, stop,
it's over.
And that's how it will happen.
Can I ask you about the Kurds?
There's reporting out there that the Kurds, the fighters might be sent into Iran to start
a ground offensive.
The White House has pushed back on any reporting that suggests that there is some sort
of a plan to use the Kurds.
But wouldn't that help both Israeli and U.S. troops, would you be supportive of using the
Kurdish fighters?
One has to understand that the Kurds have their own aspirations and needs and objectives.
The Kurds have spread all over the Middle East.
I would be very cautious in saying who's joining, who's not joining.
The Iran is a big nation.
It's 90 million.
It has various groups within it.
One thing we know for sure, for years, the Iranian people are fed up and you saw them
going to the streets just two months ago and you saw them brutally butchered by their regime
about between 32,000 to 50,000 people who've been butchered just like that.
And I'm telling you, it is obvious that with the pressure from the outside and the
pressure from the inside, that would be changed.
We're not condescending.
We are not over-optimistic. We are very realistic.
We are showing a coalition which is unbelievable.
This U.S. military and Israeli military cooperation is unprecedented.
It works like the coalition in World War II even.
I mean, it's really impressive under the leadership of President Trump.
And I must say, I commend also Prime Minister Netanyahu
for the incredible decisions that he has taken together with President Trump.
Both of them are doing incredible work to change the future of the world and bring us a better
future.
That means preventing nuclear armament for Iran.
That means stop spreading terror and havoc over the region.
And that means also change in the region, meaning Lebanon and you've seen Syria, hopefully
in other places.
Right.
I can't let you go without asking you, President, if about the pressure campaign
from our president, President Trump,
for you to pardon Benjamin Netanyahu.
He told Axios this week.
He said, every day I talk to Bibi about the war,
I want him to focus on the war and not the,
I won't say the curse word, court case,
I want the only pressure on Bibi
to be the fighting against Iran.
Will you be pardoning the prime minister, Netanyahu?
So, let's put things on record and in perspective.
First of all, during the war there are no proceedings at all, so it's off the charts
and off the table and the prime minister is solely focused on the war.
Number two, just to explain to you viewers, I'm the head of state.
I don't have executive powers.
It's similar to what you see in Europe and other countries.
And I have the pardoning power.
I'm, of course, obliged to sworn in to Israeli law.
Just like you have American Constitution
for the President of the United States,
we have the Israeli Constitution for the President of Israel.
So I said, on the one side, that I would be,
and wait a minute, wait, wait,
I said that I would consider everything seriously,
but I'm obliged under the process
and under Israeli law to await opinions
that must be given to me by the relevant authorities.
And that is why, of course, everything's on the table,
but it has to be done according to Israeli law.
I respect President Trump tremendously, honestly.
And I take the brunt with a lot of affection
and respect to him because he's the leader of the free world
who's changing history.
But on the merits of a case, which
is an internal case in Israel, I am obliged,
I'm Svarnan and I'm the president of the State of Israel.
Okay. President Herzog, thank you very much for joining us from Israel. We very much appreciate your time. Great to see you.
Thank you very much.

he's being shown polling that this war is like a 90-10 win for him.
I flipped to DC three times in the last month to try to convince Trump not to
this didn't work. It happens. I'm looking at this and I'm thinking, boy,
this is not going to get better. So then I think I'll fly up again and ask him,
I mean, I don't know if anyone else do is I'm going to try to just declare
victory and go home. Like you killed an 80 sexual cleric.
Let's just call that a win and then pull back. And so then meantime,
he got convinced to denounce me.
So I call over there to see, you know,
call someone who knows him.
Just say, I said, I'm just gonna fly up anyway
and tell him this because I think it's so important.
And the person says, don't bother
because he's being shown polling
that this war is like a 90-10 win for him.
And I said, I don't know where that polling is coming
from.
It's like, you know, I guess I can make any kind
of poll and it's-
The Americans tossed while he was coaxed into it by Netanyahu to a taxi.
He could also take out the leader that they'll surrender.
And they thought it'd be four days.
It's now over a week.
Remember in the Iraq war one, Iraq war two, there was all these videos, the Americans
are talking about, what are we doing here when they were killing people in boats
in the middle of the day?
If they were killing recently, they were so proud to show them killing people in boats
around Venezuela.
Where's all the videos now?
Why aren't we seeing all this?
They are totally on the estimate of Iran.
Now, I have no time of the Iran regime whatsoever, I'm a realist.
And they have made the greatest mistake ever.
Iran will never, ever surrender because they see what happens in Libya.
The Shema happens in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria.
It means ISIS going in there.
Why aren't you supporting Iran?
There's so many of us who support the Ayatollah.
We believed in him, we believed in his views.
You are supportive then of the Iranian regime?
Of course I am, and most people are.
Most Iranians are.
When you say, hang on a second.
Hang on a second, hang on a second.
You'll see hundreds of thousands of people in support.
You're going to have to let me speak now.
OK.
When you say you are supportive of the Iranian regime,
Does that support also include the funding of Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, the terror groups as prescribed in this country?
The plots that have been foiled, thankfully, 20 of them in this country sponsored by Iran.
A man who is described in Homan-e-Aman, who has described the Holocaust as not real.
Do you support that too?
Well, if there's nobody to stand for the Palestinians, who is standing up for the Muslims?
You think Hamas do a good job in standing up for Muslims.
You think the Iranians, you think the Iranian regime who have killed, arguably killed more Muslims in Iran than anybody else ever?
You think they are?
They've murdered thousands of their own citizens in protests.
You support them.
Just be really clear about it.
No, no.
You support them.
Yes, I do.
That's all we need to know.
The Iranian government have killed more than a million of its own citizens over the last 40 years.
I mean, whatever you think of Netanyahu, he hasn't done that.
is done is done probably much worse than that. What could be worse than that?
Weapons of mass destruction. He's the one that's been coming out for this for 30, 40 years now.
He keeps going on about it. He's the one that started the first Gulf War and the second
War. What? Yes. What are you talking about? Look at your history here.
How did he start the first Gulf War? He wasn't even in power.
He wasn't. All you do is support him. You've been supporting a war criminal all the time.
But Netanyahu wasn't, I'm not even sure he was in the, it's the Rady Parliament in 1990.
Netanyahu has been wrong all the time. He's wrong in this.
How can he have caused the first Gulf War when it was Saddam Hussein who invaded Kuwait that caused it?
Then the Iranians all together.
Alright, I'm swapping it.
Change of plans everybody. You're seeing a dark screen right now.
And the reason for why is because we're still stuck in the goddamn hodl lobby and do a little peeky-peek and
We're stuck in the goddamn hodl lobby because
Because the uber that I called
Chose to cancel the uber
Chose to cancel the uber and then a new uber that was stuck in traffic took its place
So we're still waiting hopefully gonna make it to the
Hopefully we're gonna make it to the speech on time.
You know start doing that without you?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I hope.
I have no idea what to expect now.
I'm so tired.
Ay-ya-ya-ya.
What a devastating.
Devastating predicament I've found myself in once again.
He does this every time.
I do it every time.
We still pull it off though somehow, but...
He's pulling up.
All right.
Oh, I'm so stupid.
I'm such a stupid person.
Okay.
I'm going to go on the other side.
It's cold and windy here, Jack.
Hello.
Hello.
You're good to go.
Okay, we're gonna be like eight minutes late.
That's fine.
That's fine.
Is there a lot of traffic?
Yeah.
Okay.
The Chicago has a lot of traffic, I didn't know that.
The Chi City has a lot of traffic.
Do you have the light?
I do have the light, it's another backpack.
Do you want it?
Let me see how it looks with the...
It's so cranked.
I don't want to show anyway.
That's even more than enough light, but I don't want to show yet.
He's 90% suburban straw, yes, traffic.
He's a major city gang, there's always traffic.
I don't know, some of the major cities have like traffic.
Yeah, public transit.
Chicago has public transit, I've seen it.
I've seen it with my own two-day minds.
Chicago is some of the most congested traffic in the country, even worse than
the labor density.
I don't believe that.
Worst traffic in the Midwest.
I'm just asked if a U.S. city has traffic.
Chicago, Saturday traffic is horrible.
Bro, you are the traffic.
Okay, chill.
That's hurtful for no reason.
Don't know why you're speaking to me like that.
Chicago is forwards in LA, New York, hour to go two miles.
I mean, a Saturday night on, what?
Do people party in the city? Is that what it is? Are people partying?
Yeah, you trying to turn it up?
Yeah, you can show us now. It's fine.
You're the one, so you can try to make sure we get dropped off at the right place?
Yeah, yeah, I got it. I got it on the... I put the exact location on there.
Okay, you could get this specific direction that looks like we got something.
Yeah, I think so.
Okay, then we can direct it when we're back here.
Yeah.
Let me...
...let me find some more space.
Okay.
Arrival set up are we filming it ourselves or they do they have a camera?
That's that sucks
Because the because it's so much better when they fell man have an entire production that was incredible dude that the
The way that they did that last time
Yeah, there's also a meet and greet afterwards as well.
Man, you really do have no social life.
Asking if there's traffic in Chicago, Illinois at 6pm on a Saturday, well, what the hell does
that have to do with social life, bro?
What the hell, Liente?
What the heck?
I mean, I don't have the social life, and I don't like being called out like this,
but also at the same time, so what?
What does that have to do with my knowledge over Chicago traffic density?
Huh?
Huh?
It's crazy.
Anyway, ladies and gentlemen, boys, girls, and M.B.s, we are currently on our way to Northwestern
University in Chicago, Illinois, where I will be delivering a speech on God knows what.
I am running on fumes right now, 2 hours of sleep, 3 hours of sleep, a little power nab
on the plane too for another hour, so maybe a collective total of 4 hours of sleep.
This is also coming off the heels of a wall to wall multiple 10 hour streams monitoring
the situation that's happening in Iran as the Amer-Israeli perverts are bombing Iran.
So I'm already very fatigued from all of that.
And also, predictably, I have not written a speech.
I will be freestyling it once again, another 20 minute speech that I will be freestyling.
Maybe it'll be a little bit shorter than 20 minutes this time around, potentially, because
I don't know if I got 20 minutes in me, but then followed after the 20 minute speech
will be a Q&A with the students. Very excited for that proportion as well. But yeah, we'll
be filming it. We'll be live and alive the entire time. And yeah, that's it. We're back
in, we're back in Shassidi. I will not be saying the other word, the other way that
Chicago is referred to as
Shy Rack, but I do not entertain such
Ways of referencing Chicago as a native now. I'm basically as local as a deep dish pizza by this point
You know
You don't write your speeches because you can't read right yes
I'm just I'm stupid just like you 960 SAT illiterate
Yeah, it's not shot right no more a shot ran we don't need deep digits for the tourists
Northwestern is bogus not gonna lie they own half the shore and don't pay taxes
You remember your SAT score?
Okay.
Yeah, I'm glad you knew.
I don't know what my SAT score is. I was making a joke about
Gruesome Governor Gavin Newsom.
My close friend, my close and personal best friend, Gruesome Governor Gavin Newsom.
We will be having a lot of podcasts.
Yeah, well, we don't know when.
I
It's not I can't tell the backpacks up in here. I just can't see my chat arena is not chat arena
Can you check on yours?
Is this not loading anything for me so I have no idea if it's live or not?
It's in the universe.
A little bit.
Yeah, it's live.
Okay.
It's not live on my phone for some reason.
And I suspect that it was because of the internet.
the internet but no it's good now all right never mind
i wish you visited northwestern when i went there hauslan avi sorry i actually
came to northwestern right after you left on purpose
like i did that on on purpose
i don't think the act in the military told me that it could be
turned into bio fuel for the tanks
We don't need people in LA saying they live in Chicago.
It was bad enough for people from Rockford shaking my head, shaking my head.
I was also thinking of Richie Uni kids after speaking to billionaires and millionaires this week.
My goat not beating the sold out allegations.
Is Northwestern, I don't know anything about Northwestern's reputation.
Tomorrow we'll be hanging out with Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and the Jam Podcast boys as well.
For those of you wondering.
So there is that too
So yeah, I hope you updated iOS it's on why is that
You purposely also didn't trim up that beer just to annoy me. Yeah
Yeah, Chai a tola
Northwestern is a very expensive private school, considered pretty liberal and elite.
Are we doing okay, buddy?
There's this one chatter who's still talking about fucking goats.
Amish people are more likely to fucking know where is this why are you why is the Amish
catching a stray in the chat.
This guy's been locked in since he saw the Jake Lang post.
Holy shit Iranian oil on fire.
Ken clipped his dying clip.
See this post on xd everything app? Yeah.
The music playing in the car is kind of crazy.
Yeah, what were you saying? This is coming from south.
Yeah, this will certainly help the Iranian people, of course.
Ali Largiani, Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council,
and then you all called Trump on Monday before the attack, and I attempted him into this war.
Trump admitted it. I was tempted. That's the caliber of a president of a great country.
Over a trillion dollars lost in the stock market in the first five days.
Then, another trillion, American soldiers dying while they lie about the numbers, five
guilt, six guilt, then suddenly twenty more died in an accident.
You want to say America first, this became Israel first, America last.
They wanted to topple our government and failed.
Break Iran apart, failed.
Turn our people against us, failed.
Now they hit empty buildings in a hysterical state.
These are the last gasps.
You assassinated Iran's leader.
This is unprecedented.
Our missile stockpiles are fully intact.
The strikes will be continuous.
We will not let them go.
Interesting that Donald Trump was at first going, maybe we'll work with this Ali Largiani
guy.
And as soon as Trump said that, he came out and was like, actually, we are not going
to stop until the Zionist entity is defeated.
Like shortly after Trump said that.
You know?
No, no, there isn't. It's whatever I wanted to be. And my decision was to get to the
Clubekiller, Frantle, Moggy and ASU Frantle.
very quickly as a matter of fact
i'll also talk about whether or not he was an insert from
uh... a foreign
uh... spying operation like if he's actually the spy in the streaming world
um...
i'll be talking about mr b slates uh...
streamer event
that he put together
and how i wasn't invited
because he knew that i would frame log everyone there including marlin
Obviously, I'll be talking about that.
You know, basic stuff.
The important stuff, cover all the bases, that sort of thing, right?
Clavicular news and interviews soon.
Honestly, clavicular probably has an easier shot at getting that news and interview than
I do.
Because there's been a lot of evasive maneuvering, let's just say.
What?
What?
Bro, talk about Alicia Liu's bad taste where she endorsed re-migration and mass deportation.
What?
Are you on crack?
She did not endorse re-migration and mass deportation.
You fucking idiot.
You saw like a white supremacist account on Twitter and you believed it.
That's something like Queen.
Speaking of gruesome gaff, it's actually been quite interesting that his senior staff all did a meeting with Zyna's groups yesterday.
And they tried to find a good landing pad for how Gavin Newsom can basically upset both sides to the best of his ability by giving a wishy-washy substandard answer on his real conducting agenda.
genocide with unlimited weapons and unlimited tax dollars from the United States of America
and unlimited political cover from the United States of America.
Very interesting.
This of course comes two days after he said Israel is conducting, or Israel is in apartheid
state, which of course is the academic consensus, is the consensus among every single human
rights group. It's what the International Court of Justice has declared is what the
ICC believes as well, that those things actually matter. It's what a coalition, I think it's
like 87% of Holocaust and genocide scholars also believe in it. Belief is the correct
assessment. And yet, Josh Gottheimer is talking about how it's a lie and it's
blood libel and his anti-terrorism.
Paws and Ibe, we're on our first date with this guy.
I kept talking about him and I told him he was a big fan later.
We were alone in his place. He revealed he hated you.
It was a destiny fan. His entire YouTube history was a son.
Hate videos, very odd.
Okay, well you saved yourself.
Well, it seems that they didn't hit.
Yeah.
They did not confirm.
I don't know if you...
... had sex or not, but...
Sometimes it looks like the Turkish audience can't even forget what they say.
Their reactions are like a lot of people coming from far away.
They are lost in the background.
That's why it continues to be like nothing happened.
What happened? What do the Turks say now?
Americans are getting angry enough.
Do the Turks get angry too?
I don't care.
Hasan, you're going great, dear.
What's the Asmongold mystic thing?
It's mythical.
Mythical is a talent agency co-created by Asmongold, and Asmongold has been a white supremacist
reactionary for like the past two years now, openly a white supremacist reactionary for
the past two years.
And finally, I guess there was a little bit of public pressure involving Asmongold
than all these other organizations that he's a part of.
So mythic parted ways with Asmongold.
Asmongold cattle.
Is Randlingville following Niki Fuentes and voting Democrat, no.
Zionist groups really?
Yes.
Really.
Twitter is blocking center on conscious and wars X account.
That's not surprising that's not even remotely surprising.
I posted about their stuff yesterday.
is for conscientious objectors and from what I understand even if you are already forward
deployed in like Kuwait or whatever you can still actually, it's a little bit more difficult
but you can still apply to become a conscientious objector you know all you need to call is
That phone number
You know if you don't want to die for Israel if you're down for that sort of thing, that's you know, that's up to you
I guess
Take a pattern that like I can't kill a beef peanut
I would recommend to get to cover.
Quick.
Well, what is it?
Ready to go now?
Yep.
Ready to go now.
Yeah.
Ready to go now.
Wee!
Um...
Wee!
Wee!
Wee!
Wee!
Wee!
Wee!
Wee!
Wee!
Wee!
Wee!
Wee!
Wee!
Wee!
Now, you see my goats washed?
They're calling him Israel's best talent.
That's what they're calling him. I don't know.
You're saying my goat peanuts washed?
Your goat peanut is washed.
You're a 30-year-old adult.
Watching the burnt peanut.
Kind of feels like you just admitted
that you're a 30-year-old adult watching
A peanut avatar.
His name is VR Tender Deer.
Go.
The bird box or whatever the fuck he says.
I don't know, he's just like,
it's like peak, phalennial humor.
It's the most co-worker content I've ever seen
in my entire life.
Look, the cattle gotta watch some, you know what I mean?
As the world is literally burning all around us,
the cattle have to keep themselves preoccupied
Some of the peanut they keep the horrors away.
Yeah. Yeah.
I love it. I love it when he's bobbing his head.
It's very, very funny.
I love it.
It's cocoa melon for adults.
It is cocoa melon. You're right.
It is cocoa melon. It's like,
yeah, after a long day of being a cop,
I come home, I used to beat my wife,
but now I just wash burnt peanut instead.
Which is objectively good for the world, you know?
When you think about it.
Can someone lend me the info for how to apply for contractions of jaco like the four-diversus
to my friends if they have any military so they don't have to die for some bullshit?
It's on my Twitter account.
Don't forget singing Bassfish.
There's also other peanuts that have formed as well.
There's like Dr. Chudmax or something
There's a guy called like Dr. Chud. I don't know. I don't wanna know about that
Yeah, it's really funny because they like
There's a video that went super viral because they like doxed him while he was playing Fortnite
Yeah, there's a peanut gallery. I saw Grimmy explaining why she thinks mythic is skimming money from their talent contracts
But I didn't know they were associated with Asmongold
we can't withstand a war with the bungalators stop the bungalators
I don't need to know more guys man the bungalators I love the bungalators man I do I'm happy
that they're happy yeah keep them preoccupied
Dr. Witnesser is the new sheriff peanut.
Dr. Witnesser?
What is that mean?
I don't know.
He's like some Christian Fortnite player, isn't he?
I'm so tired man.
The latest plan is to try and season the big Iranian oil terminal, Qashem Island.
Literally trying to plan a D-day and half a week with one tenth of the logistical support they would need.
versus 40 years of aeronium planning.
I mean, that's,
I think,
I think they're sending the sheep to slaughter.
I think that's what I, that's what's going on.
They want to create a very unsustainable environment
in the Gulf.
you miss nazi goes best take it we just let him hit our bases because it's cheap
to rebuild nazi cope as many cope yeah yeah it's actually based when I see a
one billion dollar radar system that will never be rebuilt get destroyed by
by a $10,000 lawn mower with a fucking propeller on it.
Yeah.
Here comes the lawn mower grenade.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, this is what I voted for.
Yeah.
That's right.
I voted for going to war,
having American troops die at the behest of Israel.
against a country that would harbour no resentment towards us if we hadn't interfered in their politics since 1953,
who has designed at least for the last 50 years its entire military apparatus
off of destroying a key logistical hub in the supply chain that will now completely disrupt global energy production.
possible agricultural production as well, driving up costs.
That's what I voted for. I voted for Trump for that reason. I was like, yes, I want my president to protect pedophiles
and I want my president to go wage war with Iran so that Israel can feel safe as it engages in its expansionist goals.
That is America first, after all.
Remember what you're fighting for.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Based.
It's a tough sell, man, but honestly...
It's a tough sell if you have like three working brain cells, but...
This past week has shown me that Republicans don't have three working brain cells.
I mean, they don't even have one.
They're just going about their day,
like tomorrow when the markets open
and the gas prices keep going up and up,
they're going to be like, oh, I don't know what happened.
Joe Biden, why'd you do this, Brandon?
You fucking asshole, you know?
It's great.
Straight cattle.
I
Washed your conversation with as we go about Palestine last year what he sounds so woke and pretty
That's when it was trying to cover his ass
Because he was about to get banned
Big bomb hit Israel and how much you want bet this AI let's see oh
Oh, it's fucking...
Eugenio Suarez crushes on world baseball classic.
Yeah, I don't really like that there is a...
Israel is allowed to participate in international sporting events while they're literally creating
World War 3.
I feel like that's not great.
Yeah, your Lapid four hours ago comes out.
Everyone's favorite opposition figure in Israel.
If you're wondering what the opposition is up to.
Yeah, the Israeli left.
Not really.
Israel must destroy all of Iran's oil fields and energy industry on Kog Island.
That is what will cripple Iran's economy and top of the regime.
This war must end when the regime in Iran has fallen.
The nuclear facilities have been destroyed.
All of the ballistic missile industry has been destroyed.
And Khazbala has been destroyed in Lebanon.
That's my opposition leader right there, man.
I love democracy in Israel and the most moral nation on the planet.
I love that.
Isn't that great?
Hold on.
Where was it?
Where was it?
Hold on, where was it, where was it, where were we?
We're gonna get dropped off on the north side.
Okay.
Well, that's what we need.
Yeah.
Usually we're going to have the Israeli left position with an accent at Northwestern
No.
What was I gonna look at? Oh.
Dude, I have to pee. So bad.
Trudeau Parsons says, I have for years argued and written that Israel would never be content with just replacing the regime.
That it always was seeking to destroy the Iranian state and much of the country to diminish Iran's ability to challenge Israel's goal of domination.
But the hatred of regime the hatred of the regime blinded many Iranians
I mean the thing is like we're being I
Know his easy dunks on the Iranian diaspora like their point is is utterly irrelevant right like
It doesn't matter if they're fucking for or against American and Israeli intervention
It was gonna happen regardless. I mean, it's okay to dunk on them. Don't get me wrong. They did celebrate this
They were being fucking pretty heinous on the timeline and there are still many who have been duped by that sort of thing because
Americans are the biggest suckers around right?
Having said that
a sober assessment of the situation that's unfolded
would
Require you to come to the conclusion that this was going to happen whether there was a hundred percent of the diaspora that
was in opposition to military intervention or
Or, uh, 50% of the diaspora was in opposition to the military intervention. It doesn't really matter at all.
As a matter of fact, it's in the hands of the real population that matters.
Israel.
I mean, how can you see it as anything but that, considering that the only group of people
on the planet, that is, supportive of this is the MAGA cattle in the United States of America by 84%
and the spiritually MAGA nation state of Israel. This is around the same 86% I believe
is the current approval rating of striking Iran, the Iranian strikes are very, very popular in the state.
So, I love when people go, well, Israel's a democracy and it's like, okay, well, they're
They're democratically fucking assholes.
They've democratically organized around the principles of fascism.
Who gives a shit?
Can you visit Pritzker while you're here and throw in the commiss to keep the bears in Chicago?
Sure.
Unfortunately, it's quite popular with Iran too, at least amongst my family still in
the country. Yeah your family is in the minority chatter.
There's only the hotel on the opposite side of the city. From the University, yes.
I did that to piss you off. It's because I hate you personally.
Real.
I
Shatters it I've I've Instagram DM'd you my brother's handle he can show you around he's shown NFL players around
West Loop where the party's at I
I'm 34 years old
How's the peeing situation? The peeing situation is very bad.
So we're going to get out on the north side of the building.
Yeah, so you just go a little further and make a right on Tech Drive.
So it's your next right.
Yeah, just keep going up to that light and turn right.
Yeah, and then it will be right there and then we're going to the...
You can just turn right on that street and then keep going, you'll see it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, right here.
You turn right here.
And then just go down.
Yeah, keep going all the way in.
And then go all the way to the back. I think there's like two people there. Yeah
Okay, I'm hiding you
Thank you, sir
Hi, hello. I'm March.
Of course. Hi.
I think I'm on the street and I should get to go to the bathroom and get to that first.
Yeah, I can go to the bathroom first.
It's probably super blue in that snorkeling.
All right, he's just gonna go pee without me.
What's up, guys?
This camera's still hot, by the way, just a heads-up.
Yeah, where's the room?
It's literally right in the back of the room.
Yeah, I'll go in.
I'll take more change so you can sit up.
Yeah.
Oh, I'm at the green room.
Oh.
If there is one.
There is, but the amount of work you still...
Okay, so I'll wait with this on then.
Okay.
No, there's no need for that.
Oh.
The students are in...
No, I know, but when he comes out I want him to be on stream still.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, and then I can hand the camera and you can show me where I'm going to set
up and then I'll do the swap as quickly as possible.
We haven't let any students in until we get set up.
Okay.
So it is the same August when he's going to be talking and still...
Sounds good.
How you guys doing?
Good.
Good.
Actually very tired, but good overall.
How was your guys' flight?
It was alright.
It was just really early.
He's so confused.
Sorry Chip, blame Hasan.
Taking this to the last time in there.
It's got a heavy stream today.
I'll talk to you guys then.
I don't think you've been after this.
I know, we're good for nothing. Let's go.
How big is the area?
It's very big.
It's huge.
It's a lot.
Okay.
Oops.
I don't know.
Hi guys.
You have a couple places you can either try out the balcony
or you can take whatever seats you want.
Yeah, that's the center area I think it'll be fine.
Yeah.
Um, yeah.
Okay.
Cool to you.
We're live already.
Yes.
We're live right now.
We're streaming.
Got that shirt for you.
We have the ones for you.
Okay.
I can sit there.
And then the Q&A portion, I just do like a, I just deliver a speech and then the
Q&A portion is just like students asking questions.
Yeah, so we're going to have a line and we're just going to have students come
Cool cool cool.
I'll ask you a question and go on.
Alright, perfect.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, let's switch.
I'll switch to the LOBS and then you just get a straight shot from the middle.
Okay.
Add the long lens on here too, so it'll be fine.
I'll have one LOB and then the other LOB will be the student microphone LOB?
Well, they can have a mic that plays in the whole room, so the LOB should be
able to pick up what they're saying, and if not, then I'll kick-sit in the
moment.
Is that one on?
Oh, we have to turn this thing off.
You should work.
You want me to turn it on here as well?
Yes.
Right there.
Just now.
At this one, I was going to put it on here.
Yeah, no one else.
I'm turning it on.
There are only two bars left.
OK, Chad.
Chad, I'm actually going to swap your mic right now.
It's you.
Do you want me to turn it off right now, though?
Is that what you're going to be doing for tonight?
Yeah, sure.
I'll just get it back on the room.
Let's keep it on.
I think we're going to get the phone.
Yeah, that's for you.
Hey, I'm going to come down here, Mr. President.
No, it's for me.
We're going to do a photo for in a second, whenever you're here.
And you go with the mic?
Yeah.
OK, cool.
I'll just put it on after.
You guys want to come up and we can do it up here?
Cool.
Give me the bag, I'll put it in my pocket.
Or just do that.
Yeah, you don't just jump though.
Alright, Chad, I'm helping out.
Oh, that is a heavy fall actually.
I'm not gonna do that.
I'm not about to eat shit on camera.
Alright, Chad, I'm changing microphones
From the shotgun microphone to a lot of mic it's gonna be on Hassan, so
Pardon the audio interruptions
Y'all been here before though you guys cool that you guys know how we do this
I can't meeting you for a bit.
you
you
you
Can you guys hear me? I can hear it. I can hear it.
Okay.
Bro, they do not have energy drinks here at all.
That is, I'm so dead.
I'm so tired.
No. Just here.
Put our stuff over here?
Yeah.
Just right here.
It's pretty funny this is like...
I'm gonna say that's what it is.
Now just wait here for a little bit while they...
Just stay here for now because otherwise it's like boring.
You're just like waiting for the crowd, you know?
I'm healed. The school? The mine? The school?
Somebody make a room for students door and get my man's a monster. No, what?
It's fine. I don't care
Well, they were, and then they just started.
That's all right.
Question of regular size,
what are taking that before the speech?
Yeah, I'm gonna take a nap right now.
What are you laughing about?
That's amazing.
That's good for you.
Why?
You don't want to spoil it for them.
You don't want to reveal yourself too early.
Yeah, they're going to see me and be like, that's what he looks like. I'm out.
That's what he looks like in person. Gross.
No. No green room.
No green room on my rider.
hearing they'll be hearing up for my manager about this
Tisk Tisk
yeah
feeling pretty good feeling very tired so actually I'm lying I don't know why
I'm lying, I'm not feeling good at all.
I'm feeling insanely tired.
But I think we'll be okay.
No green rooms in the Midwest.
Check your damn zipper.
What is it though?
What do you want?
Wait, did you see me?
This is an interactive broadcast, okay.
Did you tell her about how the lady at TSA
almost took my shirt as intel and full?
Oh my God, I forgot about that.
No, I told him the TSA story by the guy who was like,
why are you not?
I'm surprised you don't do TSA pre-check.
And I was like, the government took it from me.
And he was like, well, the government took my salary away.
Fucking owned me.
Yeah, they were, the lady at the TSA was like
going through my stuff and was just like
moving it around, shuffling it around a little bit.
and then something flew out of my pocket
and I didn't know what it was,
but I was like, hey, can you, like?
Something fell.
Something fell, and she was like, okay.
And she just didn't do anything.
She like looked down a little bit
and couldn't, like, didn't even like attempt to.
I was like, well, can you, can you get,
I don't know what it is,
like it could be my wallet, you know what I mean?
Like, I was like, can you please?
And it turns out it was my Zintin.
She was gonna leave on the floor.
Yeah, that would have been devastating.
I would have been devastated.
Take it one minute now before your speech.
Dude is doing 20,
dude's doing a 20 minute speech with two hours of sleep.
It'll be fine.
Yeah.
That is my hair look.
That's probably not looking great either.
That's fine, I don't love it, but what are you going to do?
Um, yeah, I'm just going to do my
regular stream commentary I'm decided oh you guys have oh is there any oh dude
yes I have I'm on two hours of sleep right now anything any sugar-free
energy drink is good yeah I love monster we are in the crowd waiting for you
you twin?
Hold this one here.
Whoa.
I'm just gonna grab the shotgun like I have and I'm in person.
Is that failsafe?
In the event of things?
Monsters videos? No, it's not.
Why do you guys always do that fake shit?
And then I say that's not the case,
and then you literally get into a debate
And you find some random list from British malice contingency, Palestinian BDS list.
And I'm like, this is not the Palestinian national BDS list at all.
And then we argue over it.
Coke owns Monster, you fool.
It owns 10% of it?
Okay, I will spill out 10% of it at the end of it
You will do 20 minutes alive, okay buddy, that's what I'm gonna do
There's someone you're there's someone in the crowd watching the stream there's a lot of people watching
in the crowd I
think
Don't irritate the boss before he's got a sleigh
Most will fuck your stomach up
Crawl would just be looking at their phones watching that's like peak that's peak gen alpha peak zoomer
Instead of instead of looking up watching the stream on their phones
on mute
That's how zoomers react to the world, really.
No flies, no checkers ever. Why are they keep saying that?
I'm gonna shock the world tonight, okay?
By that I mean I might become the first ever, oh hell yeah, thank you so much.
I'm gonna become the first-ever speaker that's ever fallen asleep mid-speech like a like a narcoleptic attack
Yeah, I'll give yeah
Yeah
What was the stolen land here in Chicago, I only know Tongva nation
You know, I'm thinking I don't got this I was right, thank you for the gifted
Yeah, dude, the funniest was at UBC when they were literally
like this is a very professional event. At least this is like student run, student, you
know, organized. Like that one was like auditorium, you know, adults were watching, you know, they
had like a whole full spectrum coverage. The news was there. Yeah, the news Canadian
broadcasting was there. So like that when I was when I just kept telling the head of
the department that is like responsible for this organization is responsible for this entire
thing that they're doing with speakers that range from I forget who it was but it was
like a New York Times columnist and Rachel Maddow and then me when I just kept saying
I'm not I'm not I didn't prepare I'm not ready for this at all they were like I could
I see her legitimately white knuckling through it like what the fuck?
What are you looking for?
Yeah, get a little taste.
You weren't getting invited again, little bro?
You should have traveled yesterday.
Oh my God, why didn't I think of that, dude?
Oh, that's right, because the entire world is collapsing all around us, okay?
and I have to do full spectrum coverage.
That's true. I should be meth-maxing, kind of like my boy, Clevicular.
My go-clevicular, he meth-maxes, and he also stays low cortisol
because he likes to balance it out with beta blockers.
top of the hour remind you yeah top of the hour every hour ladies and gentlemen

You're emotional support soundboard?
Yeah.
I need it.
I need it from Bob's Burgers kid from Bob's Burgers no
no the white monster bro this is sustenance this is life dude it's a
The Gartha memes are real.
I'm ready for the world end now.
I've never introduced myself to anyone.
You've been a person who's been in contact with people.
Oh, hell yeah.
I was just wondering if anybody's gonna be true
to both of you and all of us.
Yeah, yeah, of course.
I've been watching you for like six years.
Damn!
Yeah, that's crazy.
So, what were you, like 13,
when you started watching?
I was like 15 and I was 21.
That's crazy.
I'm saying chat, save it.
Chat, you're in there.
Yeah, yeah, I'm trying to make some stuff.
Hell yeah.
I hope that was helpful.
I got it in my girlfriend right there.
Is it a damn stud?
Stud, stud.
How many haters do you think will be in the crowd?
A lot less than you think.
Really?
Do not
I don't think
Oh, so no like Israel counter demonstrators?
When I did UBC, we did this massive event, I don't know if you saw, and apparently, first,
the CIJA, it's like the Canadian A-Pack.
They tried to get me banned from entering the country.
They failed on that.
So they did a counter event for 20 people.
And then, you know, some, like it was like a, the Canadian version of Jewish insider wrote
an article about it being like two battling, you know, one campus, two battling narratives,
like they brought in dangerous, dangerous anti-Semite, it's on Piker, the campus, like,
they got a hand it to them, they don't give up on the, this guy's an anti-Semite narrative.
Well, I mean, we approach it from a lot.
If you want to come and ask me the question, you can.
So I feel like if you put that on these agreements
or if you have no research on what you can say in English,
it must, like, start in English with Michael.
Yeah.
How far out are we from Hong Kong?
I'm expecting it to set in 10, but we've started
I mean it's fine, I just want to get an idea of why I should run out there.
We're probably just thinking, I have to go and see if I can still have it filled up now.
We can start doing it now. We can do all this stuff. We're a stubble.
We're standing up on student ID's.
There's like 10 people out there, bro. You got enough of them.
Yeah. It's over chat.
FAH!
There's no one there.
Thank you, see, this is why I do it.
It's for Ethan.
Exactly, exactly!
All the unks in the chat, they're like,
I don't like it.
No, they all love it now too, actually.
They all spam FAH every time.
They come around.
I deleted TikTok and Instagram and that was sent off to social media, so that's why I might feel like I hate TikTok.
That's the brain rot you get out of your suitcase.
I'm bored of my daily lists of brain rot.
That's crazy. You deleted TikTok and Twitter?
Yeah, Twitter and Instagram.
Well, Twitter makes sense, but TikTok is crazy.
Well, I guess TikTok sucks now actually.
It literally has like dramatically altered my 4u page.
you page yeah or it was showing me like Charlie Kirk memorial videos that had
like 10 lights I was like there's no shot that there is
Do you have a seat with me?
Yeah, I have a spot for me too.
Yeah, we're just trying to keep it here for as long as we can
until the room fills up to like right before you guys start so there's no
downtime, you know?
About like a minute or two before I'll run out there and just pop up.
It reminds us to be hot and everything.
I still think it's garbage and don't like it, but I've had to deal with it as a crack it right there
Here's the Bosbergers, Eugene, me, and Benchman.
Hello.
I'm Marshal McCann.
Thanks.
Fantastic.
Oh.
Oh.
It will be fun to do it right, but yeah, hey, Benchman.
Ah!
Stay stable.
It's funny.
It's funny.
Okay.
Well.
okay well you guys might not like it but this is what peak performance is all
about all right
I'm hitting the Fawz
I really, really hope that monster saves me a little bit, because of it.
Yeah.
I would rather put myself in a trebuchet and launch myself directly in the vicinity of
the nearest spiked rails and die.
Kevin taking an hour to kick in, can't wait. Well, okay, then it's the Red Bull that's kicking in right now.
Yeah, I don't think so.
So, bro, is not going to be letting today?
Monster, baby, she doesn't want to eat much of the game.
Of course.
Terga Chatter says, you son of a bitch, you better not burp like you always do after
you drink that monster energy drink while you're delivering the speech.
I thought about that.
Imagine, I just burp around.
That's when we know if the entire audience is just hostile to what it has or not, because
they're used to it.
Chatter clocked you so bad.
Yeah.
At least I'm not stressed, I'm too tired to be stressed.
Still chocked?
Still chocked?
I heard the weave get stronger retired in the lyrius
That's not easy check out the Mexican museum with March and show him his roots
March is wazin so I don't know what the Frick you're on about
Chicago, Chicano. That's where it comes from. A little known fact.
There's a large Mexican community up there.
I found out that there's just Mexicans everywhere.
Yeah, we have them everywhere.
What do you mean we?
They meet there.
Yeah.
Really, Chicago has one of the largest Mexican populations in the United States.
Shit ton of Mexicans in Chicago, what the fuck do you know?
It just doesn't make sense because Chicago is such a like a spiritually Polish part of the country
And it doesn't fit in my theory of the closer you are to the Southwest the more Mexican you are and the closer
You are to the Northeast the more Italian you are
Chicago somewhere in between would be the Polish
so
Because it doesn't fit my theory. I'm gonna
And respectfully tell you that there aren't any Mexicans in Chicago.
her capita out of a big city besides LA.
Huge Mexican pop, you mega dumbass.
Okay, why are people getting mad at me?
I'm fucking around.
I'm not being serious.
Also, there's one Mexican from Chicago.
His name is Nick Flentes, so.
That's the only Mexican I know from Chicago.
Chicago's the birthplace?
All right, we're good?
All right, you get it down there.
Yeah, we had to tell, well, they also like it too.
They try to line students with like four or five years old.
What were they doing here?
I don't know.
They were like, show up with like queens and flyers.
I think they wanted to hang out with flyers,
but they said they were inviting any which wasn't for them.
They said they were students.
Then he's trying to say that a wild party showed
like a different universe in the sky.
That's crazy.
Which one is it?
Which one is it?
It's the third one.
Third one.
OK.
OK.
This side.
All right.
We need to go.
OK.
All right.
Let's go.
All right.
All right.
All right.
All right.
All right, you ready?
Damn, everybody got quiet real quick.
Nice.
Thank you so much for being here.
Yeah, so I'm just going to talk a little bit about the political union.
So we're here with questions only on the part of the political union.
Maybe head to the U.S. Senate again.
We'll have one for the discussed political topic at the time.
You also can go back to this one.
So if you're interested, we'll be sending out our list here.
For the artist, I'm just going to follow up on the U.S. Senate again.
I'm running out of fumes here, I apologize.
I just got in from Los Angeles earlier in the day, and I have like two hours of sleep.
So I'm basically, I basically just slammed a white monster energy drink.
So that's the only thing that's giving me life currently.
All right.
Okay.
Very professional.
Ugh.
How's everybody doing tonight?
The world is on fire.
I've had a very busy week,
and because of that,
I failed to write a speech before I got here.
When I was first told that I was going to be speaking in Northwestern, I was like,
alright, you know what, I did UBC a couple of weeks ago.
I went out there, no preparation whatsoever, and I thought to myself,
you know, I'm going to fail on that speech, but this time in Northwestern
I'm going to deliver a really nice one that I wrote ahead of time.
And then, of course, America and Israel decided to bomb Iran
and nuke the global energy market, which
caused me to, unfortunately, focus all of my efforts
on doing round-the-clock coverage on that.
So sincere apologies ahead of time,
but you can cook me on the Q&A portion of this entire event
in a little bit.
But one of the things I've been thinking about quite a bit,
as of late, is the idea of revolutionary optimism
at a time when things seem so devastating.
People's material conditions are collapsing.
Many of you are going to graduate
into a horrifying job market.
I apologize for reminding you.
And the future seems not so bright for many Americans.
Many Americans, from all different backgrounds
and all different ages, I feel like long gone
are the days of American prosperity.
And the trajectory that we're headed down
is complete collapse of the liberal new world order
that was designed in the aftermath of World War II.
And fascism is making a big time comeback,
both here in the United States of America
and certainly in a lot of Western liberal
capitalist democracies.
You've got the rise of the AFD.
You got the reform party, which apparently wasn't even
racist enough for Elon Musk.
So he went and created another one.
I think it's like Defend Britain or something.
And the right around the globe is taking advantage
of the instability, constantly focusing people's angst,
their animosity, their anger, as a direct consequence
of the diminishing material quality of people's existence
and reorienting that anger back to migrants, trans people,
numerous other vulnerable targets that rarely ever
get defended, both in mainstream media
and just in general in politics.
And unfortunately, there is not a real alternative
on the liberal front.
Many of the ruling parties, all around in both parliamentary
democracies and here in the United States of America,
have fallen short of what is a necessary response
to combat the growth of fascism.
American imperialism is dominating the planet
with the Donro doctrine in Latin America
and all of the events that are unfolding
in Iran right now and the Menor region.
It seems like the future is not so great.
And in spite of all of that,
I do think that this is an opportunity
that is very unique.
I've gone all around the country.
I've been around the world.
I go and attend these protests that
are taking place everywhere.
And one thing that I see from all the people
that I talk to, from different backgrounds, people your age,
all the way to people who are like 60 years old,
70 years old, there is this real palpable anger.
They want change.
They don't know how to communicate it effectively
Because the alternative of socialism
has basically been destroyed in many of these Western countries.
But I think it is creating this now more than ever.
I truly believe that there is a really unique opportunity
to organize and to show people that we do have that power.
And I fear that if we don't do that,
if we don't seize on this opportunity,
come the midterm elections in the United States.
And you see this with the Green Party rising in the UK as well.
If we don't organize against fascism,
I feel like we're going to succumb to fascism.
And in spite of everything that's horrible,
the unique opportunity for organizing presents itself.
And there have been some moments of success.
The election is on Mamdani.
Does everybody like Zoram Mamdani in here?
I had to get a cheap applause break there, because the election is where I'm on Donnie,
and all of the successful initiatives of pushing back against Trump's authoritarian
rulership here in the United States of America, from Minneapolis, Minnesota to all around,
the pushback that the public, sorry, you want to, yeah.
Yeah, you can give yourself applause here if you want.
I don't know, you guys are in Chicago,
but I mean, it happened in Chicago too,
but the people are rising up.
They're pushing back against the government.
They're coming to terms with the reality
that if no one's coming to save us, we will save us.
And there have been some successes
in spite of all of the horrible excesses that we have seen.
And I urge all of you in this moment to hold on to those glimmers of hope, to those pockets of hope,
no matter where they might be, and keep pushing forward,
because in the absence of people like yourselves, open-minded people like-minded people organizing,
demonstrating solidarity, protecting people in your communities, we're not going to make it.
But that's basically what I'm here to talk to you about today and on that note
We can get to the Q&A portion of this. Thank you so much
Do I choose or do you guys choose?
Okay, I can't hear you.
Yeah.
All right, I want to start off with a question.
Are your zanners, do you prefer the Swedish scenes or the American scenes?
Oh, American all the way.
Americans ends all the way.
I've tasted the Swedish ones, I feel like it just doesn't taste as good.
I don't know what they put in the American ones, maybe it's probably the chemicals.
I'm a big fan of that. I'm like the anti-RFK junior where I love chemicals.
Give me more chemicals.
Thank you. Go chemicals.
All right, what's up?
My name is Zach.
Thank you for being here.
My question is a little bit more serious.
So I'm a professor and you might not even
have to know that's a thing, Jewish population.
I myself have a lot of friends that are Jewish,
that have been in Israel, and that's the work of all of them.
I was wondering, how would you recommend
I approach having conversations with a bunch of friends
or posting a social media without working on the partnership?
but also not sure what a genocide is.
Okay, I mean, the states are totally separate
from the people, right?
I mean, we have a lot of disagreements
with the MAGA movement here in America.
I mean, they're basically cattle.
And yet, you know, you can have reasonable disagreements
with your loved ones over, you know,
how much they love Donald Trump,
no matter how much he keeps fucking shit up.
Sorry for cursing.
And it's similar to Israel as well.
It's the same conversation when it comes to Israel.
It's a nation state that is entirely
dependent on American tax dollars to commit
untold amounts of atrocities.
And atrocities that range beyond the post-October 7 genocide
that Israel has been committing.
I mean, this is a apartheid state
that is universally considered an apartheid
state by 87% of Holocaust scholars and academics,
genocide scholars, and virtually every human rights
organization.
I think regardless of the programming, regardless
of the social conditioning, I think
you shouldn't give up on your friends
and try to have normal conversations with them
about how they probably don't care about Israel
as much as they think they do.
Because if they did, they'd probably live there.
Like, that's just the truth.
Because the reality is like, I have, you know,
I have friends who used to be Zionists
who are anti-Zionists now.
And I have a lot of people in my community
that used to be Zionists and are no longer Zionists.
And one of the things that, at least I've found success
and communicating is like, you think you love this country.
It's an important part of your upbringing.
It's an incredibly important part of community building
amongst young American Jews in general.
But the reality of the matter is that the state actually
incentivizes people, like, the Israeli state
wants people to go and live there, right?
That's a big part of what birthright is.
And yet many people still choose to live in Beverly Hills
and Sherman Oaks and Boca Raton and New York.
That's because you're American.
You're an American citizen and you love living here.
So I don't know, I feel like stressing that aspect of it
is probably one of the more successful ways
that you can have this conversation.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thanks for being at Amazon.
I got two questions online when we came to the show.
Recently, I saw a creator that made a pretty harsh,
like, confusing argument about media consumption.
She created a lot of local content.
I'm thinking, well, including content,
like movies, shows, and the mass media,
being like, avatar, the air site,
function posting, as a game.
So, I'm thinking, well,
including content, like movies, shows,
and the mass media, being like, avatar,
How does that function mostly as an emotional crisis
rather than reducing actual intelligent?
As someone who works largely in that ecosystem,
what do you think about the line between the political media
that mobilizes people versus media that dispatches them?
And what are some common people
that folks here can divert media consumption
to the political question?
Yeah, I mean, I think it's correct.
I think media is just media.
If you're enjoying, it's normal to enjoy movies
and it's fine to enjoy movies and listen to music.
I mean, I don't really listen to music,
but that's my fault and failure.
But as far as media being used as a tool for activism,
I would say that movies can actually
change people's perspectives quite a bit.
They can be quite impactful.
However, it's just one of the many different parts of this puzzle.
Like engaging in broad awareness initiatives through your art is a wonderful thing, but
it's not the whole game, right?
I feel like systemic change requires people firing off on all cylinders and working every
single day tirelessly to make that change, and you can play that role with the art that
you're creating.
But at the end of the day, it is still for entertainment.
But that's still a good thing, I mean, it's a part of experiencing joy, right?
I don't know what else to say about it.
To claim that it's like creating catharsis, or to claim that it's just like unproductive
or making people, forcing people to shift away
from activism is also incorrect.
Well, last one.
As Mr. Progressive Mind and the Maddy Body,
are you doing this, I must admit it,
and show the world that the man in the process
tends to muscle?
We've got to have a lot of muscle in after this.
I'm not sure.
Well, even at the top, are we showing a lot of muscle?
If I went to the gym after this, I would die, I think.
You just turned into a computer, but I'm just awesome.
I'm sorry.
Next time.
I'm just awesome.
I wanted to ask you about, well, I was going to say,
you know, you're going to have a prize about this.
And I think in the United States, there's a tension
between whether or not to keep doing
the democratic party in Judaism,
and actually form a repulse for this party.
And I just wonder really at what point do you see yourself
being part of the actual formation
of a democratic alternative of this party
that is total financial independence
for the democratic party?
Because, I mean frankly at this point,
it seems that a continuing to work
of the Democratic Party is not one of the results
that we've found actually.
I mean, this is the interest for at least 150 years
of the 10-odd members of the Democratic Party
for actually not just the Democratic system.
So I'd love for you to, do you think
start advocating for that to all of our students?
What are these?
Yeah, it's a great question.
And it's one that I've thought about quite a bit.
It's one that I've answered also endlessly.
But I'll do it again.
What America lacks at this moment is class consciousness.
And without class consciousness, you can't arrive at any sort of revolutionary organizing.
It doesn't materialize out of thin air.
In order to activate the masses, you have to go to where the masses are,
and you have to speak the language that they can understand.
And in our current two-party system where we have two major parties,
And one very ineffective, very weak or controlled opposition party and one fascist party, given
the time constraints that we have, I try to take advantage of the availability of the
Democratic Party to communicate my message to as broad of an audience as possible.
And I think we've seen some success with that.
Bernie Sanders ran, although he's an independent.
He ran as a Democrat in 2016 and I think that was a big part of the reason why the DSA started
gaining a lot of momentum, same with AOC.
I think the Democratic Socialists of America got the largest amount of membership after
AOC's victory, the underdog victory of AOC, and then once again with Zoram-Amdani, DSA
reached 100,000 members.
Now, DSA currently still also operates in a similar function, right?
It still operates as an entryist party.
It doesn't have its own real working totally separate party.
And that is partially because we still
don't have the numbers.
Approximately 40% of Democrats now
self-identify as Democratic Socialists.
But these things take time, right?
And there is a lot of political education necessary
for the masses to start really understanding
what that means, because right now for a lot of people
and they say, oh, I'm a democratic social.
I have a friend whose 65-year-old mom has started
referring to herself as a democratic socialist.
She doesn't know what that means.
She just thinks like, oh, it's like a cool democrat,
like a different younger democrat.
For many, it also just means social democracy.
Obviously, it's something beyond that, right?
We're supposed to be agitating
and we're supposed to be changing the system,
the economic organization society away from capitalism to socialism. There's many different ways of doing it, but like I said
given that we live in the imperial core, given that we have no class consciousness after a hundred years of
the destructive force of devastating labor initiatives and
through the Red Scare
completely removing the left alternative, the socialist alternative from American political consciousness,
we still have a long way to go. Or at least that's what I see for the time being.
But there will come a time when I think...
And if you pop up kind of, but like I don't know how to, I kind of want to break into
and I was wondering if you had advice on how to do that.
In 2016, I feel like when you start to a stream,
there's like no one there.
No, yeah.
Yeah.
You just have to do that.
First of all, I would recommend you don't do that,
but it's framerotic.
It's a horrible experience, but you're going to do that.
My recommendation is you keep clipping yourself,
like fake clips basically.
with your Twitch stream and just hope that they go viral.
And then the more that they go viral,
the higher the likelihood that you'll
have real organic leadership coming into the Twitch platform.
The Twitch platform is horrible for discovery.
You're not going to be able to make it on Twitch alone.
That just doesn't happen.
Even if you were to start on the platform,
you still have to collaborate with a lot of people,
create a network and maybe even like go on shows or whatever people do on the platform
and do any of that anymore and try to make it into yourself that way.
But like I said, discoverability is so fast on Twitch that you definitely should focus
on TikTok and every other social media platform you can to funnel people back into your Twitch
streams.
All right, thanks a lot.
I really like how that other kid, like on the stage,
the Q&A by joining the Massade after he didn't
like to answer your questions.
We'll see what I get after this.
I just wanted to give a wide set of political beliefs
that you believe in, very ardently.
Maury, can you give an overview of what
you can say are the philosophical
hundred meanings of those beliefs
and what those, let's say, first principles are grounded
in?
Okay, yeah, I'm sure, so if you're going to join Massad too, have a seat.
Empathy first, that's what it is. I want to improve people's material conditions. I want to live in a society where everyone can prosper.
I feel like there is a lot of organic potential against laws
all around the world, not as a consequence
of some kind of genetic setback or anything like that,
but specifically as a consequence of what their spawn point is.
And I want to improve that for everybody else
by building more egalitarian society so we can truly
advance avoidance of unnecessary conflict
and a hope for a more prosperous future.
Those are some of my first principles.
And as far as my own personal idea,
I'm going to let this because I see no reason
to make a distinction between different ideological tendencies
on the Marxist side or the anti-capitalist side,
especially because most people don't even
understand what that is.
So my goal is to try to engage in agitation
for the best of my ability so that people can go on
their own journey and, first and foremost, recognize
class consciousness as a class position.
Hi, Hesham.
Thanks for coming out.
This is super exciting.
So I want to start with that I ethically identify as half
in Miami and California, which is two groups that America has consistently undervalued,
devalued the lives of villainized.
So something I've been grappling and what I want to ask you is how do you find the longing
in a country that seems so intent on despising every thought that's been extractable in
my identity?
So, great question.
So I think America has a lot of unfortunate white supremacist
ideology that's baked into its fundamentals.
But America also lays an incredibly, incredibly diverse
country.
It's a nation of elements at the end of the day.
It's a nation that was built off of settler, colonial genocide,
indigenous genocide, and shadow slavery.
But it also happened to be one of the most diverse
on the planet entirely comprised of immigrants.
So the bad part about it is that unfortunately
when people identify with this American identity,
sometimes they lean into the white native side of things.
But there are so many people who recognize
their immigrant background and all the culture
that brings to the table.
And therefore, you find a lot of like-minded people
from all different parts of the world.
And I think the best way to grapple with that
is by finding your own people, right?
Finding people from different parts of the,
finding people from different cultures
that you can identify with and engage in a mutually beneficial
relationship with.
At least that's what I've been able to do.
And that's what I think is successful.
Hi, Hasan.
I've been watching since like 2020, and I feel like there's a good chance that I want to be studying political science right now, if it wasn't for you.
So, thanks for that.
I'm so sorry.
You've said that the left should be better at manufacturing and outrage.
What does effective outrage look like to you
without sliding into the same bad faith tactics
that you criticize on the right?
When I say the left should be better at manufacturing
outrage, I'm not saying the left should be outrageous.
What I'm simply talking about is that the system is
outrageous, right?
The conditions that we currently live under are outrageous.
In the last seven days, we've spent approximately $20 billion
as a conservative estimate, destroying
the lives of tens of thousands of Iranians
at the behest of a foreign nation called Israel
that is now completely in the driver's seat
of our Middle East and North African foreign policy.
$20 billion is quite a bit of money.
I mean, a lot of people student loan debt
could be relieved that way.
That's health care, that's building rural hospitals,
that's rose, like how can you not be outranked
for that, right?
So Mike, what I try to stress to people is just like,
there is this anger that exists.
People understand that their situation
is not getting better.
And they're somewhat rudderless.
And I feel like the right takes advantage
of that anger and redirects it back to vulnerable populations.
And what we should do, as leftists,
is to redirect anger to a more productive output
to those who actually do control the levers of power,
the forces of capital in general.
And that's what I mean when I say
they'll let you get better at manufacturing outrage.
Woo!
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
My name is Alana Groen, Sharma.
Thanks for all the talking points I used in high school today,
and thanks, David.
I'm an R.A. on campus.
And this year, our Northwestern leadership
has dissolved or reorganized departments
related to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
And all parts of my role have been
shifted from DEI to community well-being.
How can we operate within systems
that capitulate to fascism and still make radical change?
And should we continue to exist in these institutions
or make change from the outside?
Great question.
I mean, these are hurdles, right?
But you just got to push through them.
And you have to be stubborn.
And there's honestly nothing else that you can do.
I don't think that leaving the institutional organization
is helpful.
I mean, there are some organizations
where the entirety of the output is bad.
Like if you're like asking me to join the American military or something,
I'd be like, don't do that, right?
But as far as like your college campus, you just have to be steadfast.
And you have to continue pushing no matter what.
And that change will come.
And it might shock you with it.
You might be shocked at how successful you are at the end of that.
Because these guys, I mean, reactionary forces are,
they're a paper tiger.
They don't really have the investment.
They don't have the social investment.
They don't have the masses.
It's a fleeting thing.
What you have is a defense of your loved ones,
a defense of a diverse student body that you want to protect.
And that gives you an upper hand in the conversation
when you're organizing.
And therefore, it's impossible for you not to win
unless you give up.
So what I always felt was be stubborn, be steadfast,
and keep pushing through it no matter what.
So I guess, building off that last question,
I feel like they're kind of two main obstacles
to creating, I guess, exchange at a national level.
And one is like the lack of class consciousness,
cultural inertia, money and politics.
But also, like you said, there's structural obstacles
to a very party.
The Senate, the Supreme Court, the Electoral College,
all kinds of set up ways that limit the ability
to create aggressive change.
So how do you accomplish systemic change
within existing power structures
that are set up to limit the ability to create change?
It's a great question.
So you're absolutely right.
There are immense structural hurdles to overcome.
But the best way to overcome it is by mobilizing the masses,
whether it be, again, pushing back
against the fascist state, deploying its own version
of a Gestapo to dominate your neighbors
and kidnap them.
The only way to overcome great odds
is by organizing.
We don't have the systems in place right now.
We have a labor movement that is somewhat corporate captured
and is investing in the Democratic Party for the most part.
And instead of actually pressuring the Democratic Party,
it more so just operates as an electoral vehicle
for the Democratic Party, and it's
even failing at achieving that goal, too.
But that is where we have the power.
Disrupting the forces of capital is, at the end of the day,
exactly where we have all the power,
work stoppages, making demands be known,
and harming capital interests.
That is how we win.
So that's why I focus a lot of my issues
on the labor movement in general.
I guess I'm a big fan of every outfit we wore in the mid to late 2010s.
My question is about candidate evaluation, I guess.
I'm specifically contextualizing this with Tom Steyer,
and these sort of progressive populist candidates who can come from unworth of ox places.
When I think about Stein, like him being a billionaire, having a platform that would like materially benefit the people of California,
how can we as progressives balance the sort of ethical implications of welcoming a billionaire into the camp
and supporting his candidacy with the immediate material concerns that could be omitted by some of his policies
and where to be kind of draw that line
for what we're willing to tolerate from these candidates
for the understaffed days.
Yeah.
So two things.
One, you have a billionaire governor in the state.
Right?
And he's actually somewhat below from what I understand.
I mean, he sees fine.
He's a billionaire then, and then you've got to keep him
at an arms distance, but he's done all right
as far as judging his performance
with the rest of the governors around this country.
The other thing I'll say is that every establishment
of Democrat and every Republican
is also a servant of capital.
They are also servants of billions.
You're almost cutting out the middle man in some respects.
If you have direct ability.
Is he going to accelerate least age capitalism?
I mean, he's already doing that, right?
like he can get that with Eric Swalwell, for example.
So I don't see a serious material difference
between a run of the mill Democrat versus someone like that.
Having said that, I think Tom Steyer has some unique ideas
that shouldn't really be unique
and ideas that people like Bernie Sanders
have also advocated for.
So you have to just look at their policies
and figure out whether they're hermits or not
in terms of achieving those policies,
figure out they're serious and sincere,
and make that decision no matter what their background is.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Here's on IMB.
And you kind of have to just already
about how good the job market is.
Let's do a no small part to artificial intelligence
and events is in that space.
And with research coming out of anthropic,
it's kind of suggesting that somewhere in the future,
autonomous systems are going to be people
who are doing most of it, not all work.
And we're going to be in this period of abundance,
but I don't think our current system
is prepared for a post-work society.
So what does a post-work society look like for you?
Yeah, I think we stopped Rose Halkins who said like the robots are supposed to be doing the
media labor and we're supposed to be doing the art, but somewhere along the way the robots
are doing the art and we're still doing the media labor.
That's not because technological innovation is bad, technological innovation is good.
It's just that technological innovation under capitalism
is one that displaces the existing labor force
and creates downward pressure on wages and benefits
and it's horrible for the masses in general.
So work society will look like,
I mean, I've seen it in movies, right?
Like the Star Trek universe comes to mind.
But that's not the society that we live in currently.
So, we just have to keep repeating myself over and over again.
We just have to keep organizing for that future to make sure that instead of having masses turned into biofuels for the
of the abalone class, we demand a bigger piece
of the productive output that we're putting out there.
If you have a new tool that makes you a more productive laborer,
that means if five people can now do the job at 10,
that means five people are getting fired.
But this new radical vision of how the economy should be organized is where ten people actually just work half the time.
And I think we can ask for that. I think we should ask for that.
And the only way to make that demand is by creating the necessary systems, you know, labor unions and the like,
to make sure that we reconstruct the way warplanes operate in this country.
Hi, Son. My name is Andrew. I'm a first-year here at Northwestern.
You are absolutely right. The world is on fire. IQ levels are decreasing.
and I am overwhelmed. I don't have all the time in the world to really, I guess, attack all these issues at once.
And I really, really, really want to. And I keep hearing that we have to organize, and I know that what it really is.
I know that it's like really young generation. It's in our power to actually make the change that we want to see in the world.
But my biggest question to you is how?
What is one real, tangible way that we,
as a Northwestern community, can begin to organize?
This is honestly an open question to everyone.
I'm only going to talk about it with people after this.
But I think it's so important that we actually
begin to start having conversations,
and more than just conversations,
start meeting and actually start organizing.
But I'm just unsure of where to start.
Sorry, I do have a couple of questions.
Why do you say it's a pretty good starting point,
I would say. Democratic Socialist of America is a pretty good starting point. I mean there's
a lot of, you can organize around like mutual interest as well and go from there, but as
far as political organizing I would recommend the DSA joining your local campus DSA organization.
I hope that was good enough. I don't know. I feel like you're a little disappointed.
on the masses
now
i want to be a great on that
it's up
what's the other
yet
you know one of the only things that we can keep doing
uh... i guess it's like just people in the world
uh... overwhelming
only keeping it
i got to say you really haven't lived until you try it uh... leases burritos
Hey, how are we going to do this without the afterwards?
Okay, all right, I will try it.
You will try it?
Yeah.
Are you there?
Why are people booing?
Everyone's booing.
It's my thing.
Come on, thank you.
I'll make a reskier try it.
Thank you.
Hi, Son.
I just have, it's more of a specific question,
but I wanted to ask what you believe in.
It's the bare minimum that we should be fighting for, but it's the bare minimum that we should
be fighting for 100%.
Failure doesn't mean anything.
But I will say, the very fact that they are,
the very fact that after all that organizing,
that it still ends up failing, is, I think,
indicative of how powerful the divestment initiatives actually
are.
Because if it wasn't, they would just go, all right,
we're divesting.
But the very fact that divestments
are an incredibly powerful tool that student organizers can advocate for.
And that is the reason why there's so much pushback against it.
So I definitely urge BDS, urge people to follow BDS and continue pushing for
direct initiatives, regardless of how many setbacks you receive.
It's important, it's not only the moral thing to do, but it's also very successful.
It has been successful in the past with apartheid South Africa, and
And it's precisely the reason why Xi's troops spend a good deal of time trying to infiltrate
and try to push back on these sorts of initiatives.
So yeah, keep up the good work for sure.
Thank you so much for that.
Actually, thank you. Two seconds ago at the DNC protest.
So I have one quick question and one slightly convenient question.
The second question is what was your favorite food you had in China?
Ooh.
What was it?
We had this like, is it Dong Dong rules that we had that was like, you made it yourself and you, you know, you put it together yourself, you push it on yourself, that was probably my favorite.
Okay, great.
I don't know if you're going to talk to me.
But he's not new to me.
The second question is, with the opposition to this war,
we've seen a lot of people take a procedural opposition to it.
From one, democratic politicians, which I think
are being malicious in that they're doing it on purpose.
But then there's also liberal people
who are just people who are just
believing everything that they've been conditioned
to think that way.
How do we get people to stop thinking
in terms of like if Congress approved it
and it was through the right process,
that would be okay for some reason
to do a imperialist legal anymore.
You know how many of these people that,
that's not the way you should be looking at it.
You should be looking at it
as long as it gets but it's cute.
Great question.
So I think we gotta give people more credit.
I think that like people have broad opposition
towards war in general.
But when that's the only acceptable lane of opposing war,
that's what they lean into.
As far as the party goes, of course.
I mean, a lot of these people are charlatans.
There's a rotating bill instruction
with the Democratic Party that specifically
always funds just enough votes to not pass
at the war powers resolution.
So even if their opposition is on the procedural front,
they still find a way within the caucuses
to ensure that even that bare minimum procedure
doesn't pass through.
And that's where agitating and that's
where organizing actually comes into play.
And go to the town halls and call your congressperson,
go to town halls.
It will shock you how successful that stuff is.
Once again, these guys don't really
talk to normal people at all.
They have lobbyists on speed dial that go to all these events.
They go to closed door events where they're fundraising.
So that's who they end up talking to.
But if they actually have to address their constituents,
they find out that, no, their constituents are actually
very pissed off about this.
And the lobbyists are lying to them.
Not to say that all of the Congress
parties are hapless, but plenty of them actually are.
And you have to make sure that you are unavoidable.
You have to become an unavoidable force.
And you have to let your anger and discontent be known.
But yeah, as far as regular folks goes,
I think most people do have an opposition
to war on moral grounds.
But one successful method for at least Americans
who tend to be on the self-cultivation side
is to talk to them about that dollar value.
If they don't care about the humanity of the people whose
lies are being destroyed, talk about the fact that they always
tell you, it's not weird, they always tell you,
you're going to have enough money for health care.
But then Donald Trump's just like a $100 billion on fire,
and destroyed the global economy for no real discernible
reason other than following along Israel's destruction
agenda.
It's ridiculous.
And I think that's a fairly successful way
of convincing Americans who are maybe
a little bit on the side of the slide.
Great, thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Our welter is small and free, like individual leaders in the Democrat Party.
That's why I'm here.
And we're at that just the party's planning to add large, so it's been so federally
disparate and vile, and we need people, but also their own charitable positions,
that the party will always be stuck as a permanent politician.
Besides the total possible takeover, like what Trump did to the Republicans, do you think that the Democrat Party will ever be able to recover?
No, I don't think so. I genuinely don't think the Democratic Party will ever recover, but like I said, there's an opportunity in areas that are so weak.
In 2016, after Bernie's defeat, there were a wave of a lot of progressive candidates who also stopped identifying as Democratic socialists.
Socialists that ran in one, that's where the squad was formed, right?
Some of our best politicians came from that group, you know,
Oman, Rashid Tlaib.
And Presley has also been, you know, outperforming my expectations, certainly.
And even back then, the Democrats actually had a resistance front, I guess.
they were able to take advantage of the growing anger
in this content and then move organizing
in a very liberal direction.
Where it was just an opposition to Donald Trump
and not necessarily an opposition to the systems
that created Donald Trump.
This time around, they've completely given up.
And that's why I'll be sure
it's like people are very angry.
Lifelong Democrats are very angry.
And I think that's part of the reason why
they are becoming,
They are starting to identify as socialists, as democratic socialists.
They're exploring alternatives that they never thought they would.
And if the Democratic Party's brand is failing, we should continue using the election vehicle
that exists already within the Democratic Party.
An example I can use is Zoran.
Zoran means independent in New York as a GSA candidate.
He probably wouldn't have gotten the working families party endorsement and he probably wouldn't be mayor right now.
So there is still opportunity to work within the conference of the Democratic Party, but if they are so resistant to making the necessary changes, then we'll build it ourselves.
But as far as salvaging the reputation of the Democrats, that's not what I'm interested in.
If they're going to be hostile to salvaging
the reputation of the Democratic Party,
if they're not going to be a vehicle for change,
they're not going to be a nation for change,
then we'll have to design it ourselves.
Do you think the only option then would be a third party
and really go in terms of their party?
Do you want to say that the mindset that we're going to be in?
I think so, Seth, in my background, this works.
Do you think the only way then
to have long-term political power
would be a third party?
Possibly, yeah.
It's entirely dependent on where things go, right?
If tomorrow, all of a sudden,
there was an overwhelming coalition of socialists
within the ranks of the Democratic Party,
and then a lot of these other candidates were like,
well, I wanna cover my bases.
I wanna make sure that I'm not replaced.
I would still wanna serve my constituents.
I think a lot of other people would follow along.
But that's the less likely scenario
of me being radical, because as we've seen
with the likes of King Jefferies, and Chuck Schumer,
the national party is not even remotely interested
in doing the bare minimum pushback against Trump,
and it's actually leading to their own demise.
So I'm very pragmatic when it comes to this sort of stuff.
If the Democrats will completely retool the party
of the constitutional party, great.
Do I believe that that'll happen?
Probably not.
And if that doesn't happen, and there is enough momentum
for a robust alternative, a successful alternative,
then I believe that there will be a point in time
when that separation will take place.
I just thought, first of all, I wanted to thank you
for buying your new soundboard recently.
Of course, it only has one sound.
Oh, it has changed my life.
Anyway, my question is following,
Online political spaces often reward the most confident
or extreme taste.
How do you try to maintain intellectual honesty
in an environment where saying,
I don't know, doesn't always perform well?
This is a great question.
I say I don't know all the time.
So I don't know why I've been able to achieve success
regardless of like being very open about my limits
to my knowledge.
matter of fact, I have crippling stuff all the time.
And I do feel like some people take advantage of that.
Like the oppositional figures take advantage of that.
To presenting as someone who's not very knowledgeable
and present themselves just like confident orators
who are very skillful, who are very knowledgeable
on issues that they don't know anything about.
Having said that, I think honesty is the best policy.
And you should stay true to yourself.
And if there's an issue that you're, you know,
Libby Asan, just go through the readings and figure it out and be open to people, be honest with people.
Hi Asan, I've been looking for a long time to say that you're here.
As someone who's not in legacy media, sometimes gets to picture it on the sky.
Australia. Like how do you feel like people are getting with the introduction of like
podcast spaces, Twitch streamers, YouTubeers. How do you feel like that space is
changing and influencing people like us and how do you see it changing in the future?
Yeah, it's both good and bad. The good is what we saw with the pressure
campaign and the awareness shift away from an unconditional support to Israel to to
recognizing the plight of Palestinian. That was a good thing and that would not
have happened without independent media. Nation media has been very inclined to the
interest of State Department which unfortunately aligned with Israel's
goals of death and destruction. The bad is there's a lot of actors out
there, there's a lot of drifters out there, there's a lot of people who are
are taking advantage of the lack of interest from the market
in being honest.
And this created an environment where there is basically
no consensus reality.
It's very destabilizing.
So I don't know what the actual solution to this problem is.
I just feel like you just have to engage in media literacy
to the best of your ability and to make sure
that you have a healthy media diet
out of a diverse area of opinions,
and you're still taking advantage
of the readily available, make-sure resources as well.
I try to stress the importance of that
in my commentary every day.
I don't necessarily just across the board
shit out on mainstream media and say,
don't listen to the New York Times ever,
but I try to hold your hand through the process
of reading the news, of understanding the news,
while also showcasing the biases
that these supposedly independent outlets actually have.
But they are still very relevant.
They still have journalists.
They have massive teams.
Even though they're smaller and smaller,
like the Washington Post turned into under the leadership
of Jeff Azos, but as long as he still exists,
you just got to take advantage of it
to broaden your understanding of the world.
Thank you.
Hello.
So during the last near city mayoral election,
you criticized Democrats like Chuck Schumer
for withholding their support for Zoran-Lamdani.
Yet during the 2024 election,
you were extremely hesitant and qualified
in your support of Kamala Harris
and constantly tell people to not vote
for what is the only anti-Trump American party.
So my question is, do you regret not enthusiastically
in supporting endorsement of Congress,
given you would have exercised tremendous sway
amongst American leftists?
Obviously.
But more broadly, do you think you could better leverage
your platforms to help anti-Trump candidates win elections,
even when those candidates platforms don't necessarily
aligned with your views? Do you think the Democrats need to become a full-fledged socialist
party?
Well, I worked with a lot of candidates who aren't full-fledged, so I mean, I've literally
just had a billionaire on, so, and he very clearly is not a socialist as he communicated
to me over and over again. But I work, the majority of the candidates I work with
as a matter of fact are not socialists at all. I mean, I've worked with Al-Sahed
We thought socialist, love him, I think he's great.
Because, once again, like Jack said, over and over again, I'm pragmatic.
And one thing I will say as far as the Chuck Schumer versus me dynamic is, it's very simple.
Zorn was a great candidate and that's why Chuck Schumer should have endorsed him.
As the leader of, as one of the leaders of the Democratic Party.
I, as a Twitch streamer, don't think that I had the responsibility to endorse Kamala
Harris, especially when Kamala Harris herself made no investment whatsoever in trying to
secure the votes of people like myself.
The other side of that story, of course, is that no matter how much sway I have amongst
the leftist masses, which I don't think I had that much right,
and an overwhelming majority of my audience
ended up voting for Kamala Harris, reluctantly.
But the reality of the matter is I can't outflank the party.
If Kamala Harris was communicating
to the broadest base of support that she can,
it was a multi-billion dollar, or the billion dollar
campaign basically that she stands for $15,000 in tax credits for small businesses and a
continuation of the genocide, a continuation of Biden's horrible legacy, then I can go on
my history and be like, guys, what you're hearing from Kamala Harris is wrong. She actually
is an anti-Zionist. She's principled on this, and she's going to dissect and destroy
the scientist entity piece by piece. But I'd just be a liar at that point, right? And most
people would just look at that and go, okay, well, I'm not getting that from her at all.
And now I don't even trust you any longer, right? And that's what I always try to stress
to people, this idea that we as individuals bear a larger weight, a larger piece of the
responsibility as opposed to the party itself. If the party chooses to communicate what they're about,
we can't really outflank them and then lie to one another and lie to ourselves as the party's
actually going to, you know, to represent different values. And no matter how hard we do that, most
people that are completely outside of our reach, normal people, working class people that turn
on the television and remember that there's an election every four years, they're going to
And they're gonna be like, oh, I guess this is what's going on.
This is what Kamala Harris is about.
It's not exactly enthusing me to go out and vote for her.
And they're just gonna stay at home.
This is very important for Democrats to understand.
I try to stress that to them all the time.
When I talk to them in private meetings,
when I talk to them in person on camera,
is that you have to have a positive vision
and you have to make your case
Because no matter how much harm reduction is a theory,
it is correct, right?
Because it is correct.
The Democrats are better than the Republican Party.
We'll never vote for a Republican.
I will never tell anyone to vote for a Republican.
I will always tell them not to vote for Republicans,
which is what I stress throughout the election cycle.
Most people don't operate on harm reduction.
They want to hear something that they
want to vote for rather than vote against the terrifying
nature of the Republican Party. I mean, I can talk about this throughout, but I mean,
that's the short and sweet of it, really.
APPLAUSE
That's a sign that we have to be on to our final question right now.
Oh, okay. A lot of pressure. Make this good.
Okay. Hi, D'Fon.
I have to pee really bad.
So I'm kind of glad that this is coming up.
So it's the monster, monster in you.
Yeah, it is.
It's force improvement.
Your broadcast inspired me to study economics in college,
like many of us in this room.
However, I've come to realize most of my coursework
assumes a liberal capitalist framework,
and I don't know how many more times I
can maximize profit function.
I was wondering if you had any academic resources
that you recommend to the study of social theory
or something like this, those which
you mentioned at the topic.
As far as Marxian economists goes, I mean, Richard Wolfe
is one, John Starr-Cock is another.
They have a lot of work on the subject.
There's also much more dense material out there
that's boring that I, as a non-econom major,
have not even thought about reading.
But it's important to understand capitalism
and have it functioned.
Guy Biden and Carl Marx was obsessed with it
and wrote volumes about capitalism.
So I don't think that learning Econ,
or studying Econ, is a bad thing at all.
I think it's actually a good thing.
It's important to have a decent understanding of it.
And I feel like there are some advanced forces
in most college campuses that finally allow you
to develop a deeper understanding
alternative modes of production or you know different systems but yeah the
entry levels are usually going to be just liberal capitalism
I'm sorry for those hiccups, chap. I wanna fucking jump.
But hopefully we'll still get...
Oh my god, I have to be so bad.
Yeah, well, we'll just run over there, but it will...
There's a meeting right after this, right?
So we didn't want people to stop
Hell yeah
I'm gonna go to the bathroom and I'm gonna end the stream as well right here. Thank you everybody tomorrow like I said Chicago Mayor
Brandon Johnson the jam podcast boys they're gonna be on and
I'll obviously do my regular news coverage as well
But yeah, thank you for sticking around
I'm only now starting to feel the monster energy drink, which is crazy, but yeah, I'm
going to go do a meeting right now and maybe get some food and start it.
No, I'm going to thank you.
Oh, another monster.
