No, it's big yahoo dead, unfortunately no.
Okay, I'll use this one, I'll use the, uh, okay, boom, boom, boom, all right, all right,
all right, Epstein's Fury week three.
Epstein's Fury week three is upon a straight of hormone still closed, Trump declares W,
then begs China and EU to join in on the fund.
They say no, that's not great.
Socialists aren't supposed to party is of course not, of course not.
I'm a fake socialist though, if you recall.
All right, all right, I'm blasting off, I'm blasting off and therefore you should let
the people know that I'm live, I'm live and tell them to get in, tell them to get into
the broadcast. Okay. I feel, um, Trump literally said it's unfair for Iran to fight back. Oh
my God. He's actually saying the shit that I've been talking about this shit that I've
been joking about. He's like literally saying it's crazy. You sound sick. Um, all right,
news and all that stuff. I'm going to obviously talk about now, but like yesterday I had a
bunch of stuff going on. I had like a couple podcasts that I did. I had the merch photo
shoot that I did in the morning. And, and I did the fear and podcast and it just came
out obviously, hope you guys watch it. Hopefully you guys enjoyed it. But I was all I wasn't
really monitor the situation yesterday. So that was good for my brain, I think it was
fire Austin said he dressed you low. He did not. He did not dress me at all, but I think
it's very funny. I mean, I guess it's a good fit that like people are lying. I actually
asked this stylist later, like the day this morning, there's a stylist is like working
out in the same gym that I work out at. I was like, do you, what do you think about this
fit? And she like cooks me usually, right? And I thought she was going to cook my ass.
And she straight up said, actually, it's pretty good. So the only thing she had an issue was
what like the pants should be a little bit more tapered, or you should wear like chunky
or shoes. And she's right. I just didn't really have anything that I could wear. That's
like chunky enough. That's good.
Clubicular universe expands for non-posix newsletter.
Everything just circles back to drag. Oh, yeah, it's perfect.
I know. I know. I know. It's literally it is drag. Yeah.
Chinese century confirmed. Yeah, it is.
Why'd you stop posting Fitpix?
I just don't have time, man. I don't have time, but yeah, I, the fit was fine. I think that's,
you know, I was so nervous guys. All right, I'll just start there. I end the podcast.
I'm sitting at home. Even to like get the, even to get like the, the access to this
things crazy like there's you know this thing is like safeguarded it's harder to get to them
freaking like a super max prison facility right um because and I understand why it was like that
because obviously the reason why it was like that is because every single like omega celebrity on
the planet was there and all these billionaires there apparently Nancy Pelosi was there which
which is crazy, but yeah, I was probably one of the weirdest people to attend, but I guess
like they want to, they want to diversify like the talent pool as well.
When they do stuff like this, you know, because there were a bunch of reporters there as well,
a bunch of journalists there.
Caitlin Collins was there.
I met, I met her in person.
We're Twitter moots, but now we're moots in real life.
I don't think she likes me too much, but it's fine, but, you know, we had a, we had a long
conversation.
Also, no, Stavi wasn't there, but Shouse out the Finneas, who basically saved my life
by being there and being like a very famous person
that other people wanted to talk to
because nobody knows who the fuck I am.
So, you know, I just kind of like,
I just used them as my island at first
to get my bearing straight, you know what I mean?
To get like situated.
I didn't meet one of the heat rivalry boys anyway.
Um
It starts off it starts off at the red carpet or the gray carpet whatever you want to fucking call you can kind of see it from
The back here. I'm really I'm right here
And and Quenla's doing an interview
First I walk in okay
I walk into the event and there's like a full hair and makeup area and they're like oh
Here's the hair and makeup like they wanted to move me to the hair and makeup
up so I get my hair and makeup done before like you know you get your you take your photos and I a lot
of people do their hair and makeup ahead of time but like for people that don't they give you the
opportunity there I was like no I'm good which in hindsight probably wasn't the best idea but also
what am I gonna do just sit there and get a fucking hair and makeup done that's crazy
right I already feel like a goddamn impostor being there like I'm invited but like you know
I feel kind of strange going to begin with because these are like actually famous people and I'm just like a random dickhead
So I was like fuck it, but I'm gonna tell you something. Okay, you
Guys know I I've gone out the protests
I've gotten, you know stun grenades tossed my way. I've spoken in front of massive crowds sold out
Sold out rooms. I've spoken in front of rallies tens of thousands of people
This was the most nerve-wracking five-minute sequence in my entire life up until this point.
I have never, I have never been more nervous in my fucking life, brother.
Okay?
I've never been more nervous in my life.
I was just standing there.
Luckily, there were a lot of people that I know that, you know, are reporters that were on the line.
So they were giving me the grace of saying Hassan Hassan and like snapping pigs
Cuz like the worst thing that can happen in that situation is you walk up there and not a single fucking camera is clicking
You know what I mean, and you're just like
Especially because like you're sandwiched between real celebrities, you know what I mean, so I think I got the sympathy clicks
I got the sympathy clicks. You know what I mean?
Like people were people were snapping pigs out of pure sympathy like they just felt that you know
And and that was like maximum autism for me maximum autism moment
I'd rather be stung grenade in a shot at he said yes, yes straight up
So I'm I'm in the background even see in this interview, but basically like
It's beautiful. It looks so good. If you had to be in one movie this year, what would it
be?
Sinners. Hands out easily.
Easily not.
So did you audition?
No, no, no.
No, I think I just was told Ryan Coogler was doing something and I would.
You can tell, right? Like you can tell I'm nervous in the background.
Austin ox is so funny. It's on by your spot at the Vanity Fair is red carpet during
a six day off from shooting this year.
Yeah.
It's like you when you get told like no from an audition that you really really wanted like how do you
Get back up again
I mean obviously it can be disappointing this industry has so much rejection
You look like you're waiting for your mom. No, I didn't get to see Hannah. I'm binder
um
I did talk to her beforehand about like what to expect but uh, I didn't see her there because um, I mean it was
It was a cataclysm situation, but
Then you have to have a really thick skin as you guys know
Nonshalant gimmick in the 226 is crazy, bro. What Nonshalant?
What do you mean Nonshalant? I was not trying to be Nonshalant at all, brother. You were out of your dang mind
I was fucking shitting my pants
When something's meant for you, it'll come to you. I really believe that yeah
Like you can tell you can tell in the photos too. It's like so ass like I I
I I mean some of them I look like I'm serving so that's good
Some of them I look like I'm serving in others. I don't look like I'm serving at all
Like look at this you can see the fear in my eyes, dude also no makeup
No makeup no hair
Literally just fucking went in there
Terrified eyebrows are crazy
Hair is crazy. You forget in that moment, you forget in that moment that like
the people that are there, this is their night. Okay. This is their night. So like they literally
are so done up for this. They got team after team. They got a team of stylists and people doing hair
and makeup for the Oscar. And then they have another team that's doing different styling for
for the vanity fair party and I'm over here grabbing shit out of my fucking closet, putting
it together impromptu, didn't do my hair, coming off the podcast off the rip, tired
as hell, okay? And yeah, the results speak for themselves.
This you? Yeah, no. That's how I felt. That's how I felt for sure. Yeah, you look nervous
cuz I was bro cuz I fucking was you beat out JJ Abrams at least wait what do you mean I beat
him out what does that even mean dude like look at this look at these fits bro like that's crazy
look at these goddamn fits I met I met the Hudson Williams by the way I met him I hung out with
them a little bit. He was chill. Um, I did not see Olivia Rodrigo for those years. Oh,
I also did not meet Lisa, uh, Leo, but, uh, but she was also there. I was like, I was
with Brittany broski when she was talking to her. Were you close to yelling back at
the paparazzi. Uh, no. Yeah. Also, the other thing is like Tiana Taylor was like right
before me. So everyone was like going crazy over her. Understandably, cause she's like
a real celebrity. Uh, but, uh, you know, holy shit, the key stanfield was showing
up. Meet any surprising Hassanabi heads? Um, no, not really. Just the just the people
that I know, kind of made, in my opinion, imagine yelling at paths like they're green
M chatters. Um, so I have a duly best story. I have a duly best story. Don't worry. I'm
going to, I'm going to tell you, I'm going to tell you the duly best story. I have one.
So I walk in. Okay. I walk in. I'm nervous as fuck. I get inside. I talk to a couple
people I see Phineas I'm like yo what's good thank god you're here I don't know
anybody I'm freaking out there's literally famous people everywhere I've
never been in an environment like this before in my life and I don't think I
ever will be in an environment like this like think about it every single
person is like every single person is like an Omega celebrity okay it's just
insane and and Phineas was gracious enough to you know hold my hand through the process a little bit
which was great and I met Dua Lipa's husband. I met Dua Lipa's husband. He was really chill and no I did not meet Dua Lipa.
I was chickened out and also I I also chickened out as far as talking to Javier Bardem
That was my biggest L the fucking night
He was literally standing right next to me for like half the night and it was I was just like standing right there
It was him and it was the dude from
The secret agent and I wanted to go up to them and be like, yo, I really love what you guys did
Thank you so much for like hyping up the Cuba flotilla and like talking about the flotilla
And I just could not do it Wagner Mora. Yeah, he posted about the flotilla. I think he posted about like the
Strangulation of Cuba so I I wanted to talk to them and I was so scared
I'm a fucking chud loser, bro
I'm such a chud ass loser. I'm not based. I'm a bitch
i'm a chud i'm a whole ass loser bro straight up straight up i just like i i could not do it
i could not do it i i've never i never felt nervous like i don't fucking feel nervous ever
okay i don't feel shy ever this was a different situation because like in my mind i was thinking
in my mind i was thinking like i drank it didn't even matter it did not matter i just could
not do it. The reason why was because like, I don't want to bother these people. I'm a nobody,
you know what I mean? Why the fuck does he need to hear from someone like me? Oh, I really appreciate
what you're doing. He probably hears out a million times a day. In my mind, I'm doing this
calculation where it's like, he doesn't want to fucking hear for some random jackass, loser,
Twitch streamer, fucking chud. Like, these are, these are like actual celebrities. I'm over
here you know trying to slam a fucking double scotch as hastily as possible so I can just
like a muster up the courage to talk to him and I could not do it bro you were on Iranian TV
yeah brother I'm gonna be like hey Javier uh you're on every TV but have you been on Iranian
national television like I have this past week. No, I didn't think so. You turned into a chatter,
bro, you're Dr. Jihad. Bro, it's a party you're supposed to mingle. No, but like I also kind of
get annoyed. Like if I go to like a, like an industry event, you know what I mean?
Like I'm, I'm in a situation where like I'm in a situation where I could be the most
A motion having person in a room in most rooms. Okay, well, this is a situation where I had no motion whatsoever and comparison other people
So in my mind I was thinking like I don't want to bother any of these guys. They're all here to like see their fucking
They're all here to see their friends. I you know, I'm just a random fucking chud
You low Kirk are the confidence of water boy. This is a real first in my life
first in my lifetime style situation for this moment, but I think this is like, you know,
it makes sense to be like that, I think. But yeah, I didn't see Hannah, unfortunately.
Um, but yeah, uh, who else?
Jessica, I'll, but God damn, I did not see her.
Um, um, who else did I see?
Oh, I saw Quinta.
I talked to her briefly.
I was like, yo, you were, you were, um, at Buzzfeed with my best friend,
Will Neff and she's like, yeah.
And I was like, you should come on the podcast.
And she was like, every time I go on a podcast, I get in trouble and suddenly, yes, Quinton
knew who I was as well.
But like, but it like mostly there wasn't like, there wasn't a single, like there are
people that I know, like I know Kieran, right?
So there are people like that that I know that I, you know, hung out with before
this thing.
And then there are people that know of me that I met that aren't like fans or anything.
They just like have seen my shit, right?
So you know, Brittany obviously I hung out with a little bit too.
And I guess like the only one that was relatively surprising was the heated rivalry guy.
He knew who I was and I thought that was cool.
that's it. Um, I don't Caitlin, uh, Caitlin a little bit as well.
Have you met Salem? Oh, and I, oh yeah.
Rami, uh, Rami Malik was probably the coolest, like mega star that I met.
And I also saw Kumail as well.
Um, so that was chill.
You must have done some networking. I mean, I, I like talked to people, but I didn't
like, quote unquote network, I guess.
Yeah.
Huston is woke as fuck not surprised.
Yeah.
No, I did not see Billie Eilish there.
See me and Leo, I didn't, I didn't see most of these people, honestly.
But I guess it kind of makes sense because it's, it's chaotic.
I did see Javier Burdem quite a bit though, and I did not talk to him, and I will forever,
I will forever live with that pain, okay?
I will forever live with that pain.
I will forever, I will forever suffer. I deserve it. I deserve the suffering. This is a sick fit, Jesus Christ.
Carly Claus the Kushner. Yeah, I know. I saw her.
Did you see Markiplier? No, I did not. Was he there? This was the craziest fit. This was fire.
Um, but yeah,
hung out with Ava DuVernay a little bit.
Um, Jeff Bezos was there.
Oh, yeah, I saw Delaney, um, Jeff Bezos was there,
Which was also a strange experience much shorter than I thought he would be
That's boss man boss man Bezos was there. I didn't fucking I yeah a
Big Papa Bezos big boss man Bezos was there. I guess everyone he's like technically everyone's boss
So it's not like that significant when I say like oh, that's my boss Jeff Bezos like
Like for a lot of people they're like well that's everyone's boss like the fuck are you
talking about right?
He didn't give you headpats?
Uh no he did not.
He did not give me headpats.
Alright where the fuck am I on this list bro?
Look at that.
Right there, right there at 123 out of 162, Hassan Piker, mogging JJ Abrams.
He gave you a prime sub.
Hassan Shyboy Piker, not last.
Yeah, there you go.
I look like a, I could be like a Japanese high school kid.
bat for no hair and makeup? What about number 20 on the list? Who was number 20 on the list?
Who was number 20 on the list?
dude I'm telling you I met I met her husband he was chill and I could not talk to her I
was again there was a couple people that I really wanted to talk to Billy Hedid obviously
being one do a leave of being another one you know people that have done like advocacy
for Palestine for years and years and yes I was too much of a chicken okay are you are
Are you, is that what you want to hear?
Yes.
I literally stood next to most of these people
and I did not fucking talk to them.
I am too afraid.
Okay.
The one that's like the most,
the one that is the biggest L for me was yeah,
Wagner, Mora and Javier Bardem were literally
in like arms length distance for the first hour
The first hour of the night and I was, you know, I was
Design is crash us on Twitter. We're my after party. Yeah.
New I thought the free parking sign said free Palestine tweet just dropped. Remember Harvey R. Bardem is the cinemas most terrifying villain that was Anthony Trigurne
Saying free Palestine.
I could be Japanese. Okay, chill.
Did you feel weird being in such a capitalist mainstream event while being a socialist? No, I live in the United States of America.
Capitalist mainstream event while being a socialist.
No, I live in the United States of America.
Like that's not even a question for me.
People, like that, that's, it's so funny.
Like there is no, like everything we do is,
is still defined by the economic organization of society
that we live in.
Okay. It's not, of course, it's not a thing
that I even remotely consider.
Like what do you mean?
We excuse I don't need an excuse like what the fuck are you talking about for who
for what excuse we were just talking about Wagner Mora who quite literally is
you know there's some there's some fairly radical people there
But, yeah, were you not up late?
You look so well rested.
I mean, I left at like 12.
I left around 12.
I went, I got there at 10 and I left at 12 and I went to sleep and I worked, I worked
out this morning.
I woke up early.
But yeah, that's it.
Have you considered runway modeling?
No, because I am not attractive enough to do that.
And fat and don't know how to pose at all.
Ah.
How did you get invited?
I don't fucking know.
What kind of question is that, man?
I got...
Some of us are actually chopped on ass motherfuckers.
Yeah, Javier Bardem is my goat and I just I couldn't do it.
He was.
Ask Hudson to let you get a star and he derived every season to that's how that works.
That's actually how that works chat like you if you
Yeah when you
When you when you meet a celebrity they go wow we should be friends and I should have you in my projects like that's how it works
You can never make fun of fans who don't come up to you know I must still make fun of fans who don't come up to me
Okay, well you want to know why because I'm me. I'm a fucking loser. I'm a normal ass dude
Well, I'm abnormal in the sense that like I'm abnormal in the sense that like I spent a good deal of time on the internet
And in my brain is fried
But I'm a much more normal person than like, you know, these
Incredibly well established unimaginably famous Hollywood celebrities
like y'all are so funny to make such a silly ass comparison. I am Dr. Jihad though, which
Which is true.
Did any A-listers you don't know come up to you?
I don't know.
I mean, there was a, there were some people that came up to me, but I don't know who
they are.
were some people that came up to me, but I don't know who they are. And I didn't want to ask them
because it's like embarrassing because like one of them had won an Oscar.
You know, the fuck am I? I can't be like,
they were like, first of all, it could be, you never know, they could have been like,
like, you know, they want, they could have won an Oscar for like set design or something,
You know, like it's not, not everyone is like on camera talent, right?
You are the only one I would hide in my basement. No celebrities. Thank you.
Do you see Los Poyos? No. What the fuck was Los Poyos there? No, I did not see him.
And no, I didn't see Gal Gadot. Was she there?
here. Name someone who isn't in pop media that has been mentioned more than you by potters
in an attempt to win their campaigns.
I know I'm late, but that will go super hard with black frames, chunky shoes and chunky
glass my man either way you were fire thank you yeah dude mug which is the
fucking goat he left the Oscars to go to in and out which is I mean it's kind of
a media play but like I'm eating it you know also I don't know if you guys
notice look at his fit you see that
Chinese century of prosperity, baby. Chinese century of prosperity, baby.
Yo, he got the mouse suit on too. Hey, yo.
I'm just saying, trust the fucking process.
Yeah, Michael B. Jordan is at a very Chinese state in his life.
It was the pin you wore from Dublin.
Yes, the pin I wore on the Vanity Fair red carpet was the Irish Lily given to the Irish
Republicans who were slain. And it has the Palestine colors. Lorcan made it. Remember,
he's the one who made it to a fundraise for children in Gaza. And I wore that pin. The
one Lorcan gave me to give a shout out to both my Irish brothers and to my brothers
and Palestine as well. Yeah, it is the pin that Lorcan gave me.
Yeah. Also, I can't help but notice you got this cool pin. What's going on there?
All right. So, and this is a little thing I made myself. I call it the Gaza Lily. We have a symbol
called the Easter Lily, which is green, white, and orange, which you wear around the Easter
to symbolize that you support the methods and aims of the men and women of 1916. So I did a few of
these up with some friends I'm going to make by just... It's a signal of revolutionary militancy
as well. It's a nod to the acts that, again, as Lorcan says here, it's a nod for those who
understand to to people that you stand not only in solidarity with with the
people that are whose lives are being destroyed by colonial acts but also you
stand with those who fight back you stand with their methods and you stand
with their aims as well. Did you get Chase Infinity's number yes or yes?
dude that's the most insane question anyone has ever asked a human being in
the history of mankind no there was a moment where I stood in her presence and
I felt like I had evaporated okay what kind of insanity is this no I do not
deserve to be in the same room as chase infinity let alone literally be in
physical proximity of chase infinity you are out of your mind we are not both
human beings okay I am not a human that's crazy I am barely you need better
confidence okay shut the fuck up that's on a sit maxing you guys didn't watch
one battle after another she was great in it
the confidence I dream of
Did you see a Lisa Liu? I did. But I didn't really, you know, I didn't bother her.
The bouncer after reading that guest list.
Yeah.
This is so stupid.
What do you think of sinners versus OBA discourse? I mean, I liked both.
There were those are two of my favorite movies this year.
So how many Oscars is you in all of them?
Breaking New York City update open on the second monitor.
Why are you sending me shit that is supposed to be open on the second?
Oh.
Your fit went hard here. Okay. All right. That's all I got for the vanity fair situation. Um, we're obviously going to do an analysis on the Oscars as well, but I watched most of it before we started the podcast and I'll say, I think people are just kind of cowards.
People are just kind of cowards in Hollywood
Okay, we'll talk about like the we'll get to the Oscar seven a second like well, we're obviously gonna do situation monitoring first
You're very fair party video made it to be DVD and one of the top promises he said is really so small
He can cover it with one hand
Yeah voice of Henry job didn't win unfortunately, which was a big bummer
No, I did not see James Cameron stop asking me all the famous people that I may or may
not have seen I didn't see any famous people okay all right we're gonna do situation monitoring
I'll be back in a second I gotta use the reference if there's no response or if it's a negative
response I think it will be very bad for the future of NATO he said Trump is trying
to pressure world powers including the UK France and Italy to help keep the Strait
of Hormuz opened as oil prices skyrocket. This after Australia and Japan already refused
his request. The President won't give specifics on which countries might sign on.
But the Strait of Hormuz through which roughly 20% of the world's oil travels is now a no-go
zone for shipping with the constant threat of Iranian drone and missile attacks. Democrats
argue the administration had no plan.
The state of Hormuz, obviously, is now shut down.
All of this was predictable.
The White House stands by its strategy.
Energy Secretary Chris White turning on Martha Raddatz,
the pain of the pump, will be short lived.
Are you really sure it's going to be short term?
Can you guarantee it'll just be weeks
before prices go down?
Hey, there's no guarantees in wars at all.
I can guarantee this situation would be dramatically worse
without this military operation to defy the Iranian regime.
This, as thousands of US Marines aboard Navy carriers
move into the region.
It's an amphibious attack group capable of conducting
ground operations.
President Trump has said he's not ruling out US boots
on the ground.
And this morning, the real cost of the war
becoming clear as we learn the identities of the six
Americans killed when their refueling aircraft went down
in Iraq on Thursday.
Among them, 34-year-old technical sergeant Ashley
be Pruitt from Paltstown, Kentucky, a family described her as an amazing wife,
mother and airman. And the youngest among them, technical sergeant Tyler Simmons,
just 28 years old. His family say he dreamed of serving his country.
He's just a fantastic person. He couldn't ask for a better grandson than he was.
Well oil is now at $101 a barrel and that is hitting gas prices in the U.S.
Gas buddy thinks gas will hit $4 a gallon this week. That of course
could rise further as this war continues.
Rebecca.
And you see the ripple through of all of it.
OK, James.
Thank you.
Trump's not asking.
He's demanding.
The White House is planning to announce a coalition of countries
to reopen the Strait of Hormuz this week,
reported Axios and the Wall Street Journal on Sunday.
Trump said he has turned to about seven countries
to send warships to the passage.
He declined to name them, but previously said
he'd hoped China, France, Japan, South Korea,
and the UK would join.
Trump claimed policing the Strait would be more for the benefit of other countries than the US.
Asia, which receives roughly 70% of all crude oil shipped through the Strait, has suffered the most from its closure.
Still, Japan and Australia have already stated they won't be sending warships or ordering maritime security to the passage.
On Monday, Tokyo began releasing its oil reserves, worth about 45 days, to manage supply shortages.
We plan to consider taking necessary steps while communicating well with relevant countries,
including the U.S., and monitoring the situation closely.
But no decisions have been made to send self-defense forces.
It seems Trump won't take further rejections lying down.
In an interview with the Financial Times, he said it would be very bad for the future
of NATO if it refuses to help.
Trump also pressured China to participate, claiming the country gets 90 percent of its
oil from the strait.
The U.S. leader is scheduled to travel to Beijing at the end of the month for a summit
with Xi Jinping.
If China says no, Trump's red ante could delay the meeting to an unspecified date.
than 100 Iranian naval vessels have been sunk or destroyed over the last week and a half.
That has to be some kind of a record.
Additional strikes continue to launch from all directions every single hour.
As you know, we attacked Karg Island and knocked it literally destroyed everything
in the island except for the area where the oil is.
I call it the pipes.
We left the pipes.
We didn't want to do that, but we will do that.
We can do that on five minutes notice.
It'll be over.
But for purposes of someday rebuilding that country,
I guess we did the right thing.
But it may not stay that way.
Just one simple word, and the pipes will be gone, too.
But it'll take a long time to rebuild that.
We are aggressively dismantling
our defense, industrial base,
and ability to rebuild its missiles and drone capability
is getting down to close to zero.
And we're hammering their capacity to threaten commercial.
Hassan shocks his dog, report him.
Hassan shocks dogs.
Hassan is an abuser.
Everybody here be warned.
Hassan shocks dogs.
Hassan use shockers.
Hassan is shocking his dog.
Fuck Hassan, fuck Hassan, that abuser.
Bro, you good?
Everybody spam fuck us up.
This gotta be a bot, right?
You good, bro?
You good?
LLLL.
Be honest.
This song is this true?
Yeah, see, look, place.
I shocked her so hard, she's dead now.
Everybody type fuck us on.
This guy is awesome.
Alright, where were we?
Things are going really well. Okay. Things are going really well in the war effort. I just want to say
Please don't write it in the news that things are not going really well in the war effort
Because if you do that, I'm gonna make it illegal. I'm gonna put you in jail if you do that
Okay, Brandon Carr head of the FCC. Please make it illegal for people to say the war effort is not going well
please Brandon do something about it I need to I need you to put it in the
newspaper that the war is doing great also we're winning we're winning so
good and we don't even need anyone's help except if you don't give us help we
will remember it that's right the UK I said we don't want your help but
actually that was a lie I really do I really do want your help
that was a lie I desperately need your help please give me help we need all of
the help we can get yes we'll be covering Cuba in a little bit I know I
know Cuba's power grid collapsed fully Cuba has officially completely run out
of oil and and we will be covering it obviously and I'll be giving you more
updates on that as well, after I'm done with this part of the broadcast.
We're shipping in the strait of Hormoz with more than 30 mine laying ships destroyed.
We hit to the best of our knowledge all of their mine laying ships.
Now they can put them on other types of ships I guess and drop them in, but we don't know
that any have even been dropped in.
We're not sure that any have been.
That's a big negative for them if they do it.
It's a form of suicide, but we don't know that they have dropped any in, but we've
hit all 30 of their ships and destroyed them.
They're all at the bottom of the sea.
We strongly encourage other nations whose economies depend on the strait far more than
ours.
We get less than 1 percent of our oil from the strait, and some countries get much more
Japan gets 95 percent.
China gets 90 percent.
the Europeans get quite a bit. South Korea gets 35%. So we want them to come and help
us with the straight. We have it in very good shape. The countries, I said we've already
taken care of Iran, but now because of the fact that literally a single terrorist can
put something in the water or shoot something or shoot a missile, a small missile, and
it's fairly.
thought about that beforehand don't you think that was uh you know that's the reason why the
straight is not hoping it's not open it was open but it could be open but you know it's kind of uh
it's it's kind of hit or miss and by that I mean uh you hope that the drones miss your ships
right uh that's what you hope you help for it but then sometimes the drones don't miss
and they hit the ship and then the ship's on fire and I guess what I'm trying to say is
the Strait of Hormuz is not open even though I said it is and it should be open and it could be open
but I chose to wage war against this country alongside Israel unbelievably coping uh China
please help me China what is this pastor jihad that's funny stupid okay
What the fuck was it about here it is close range because it is a tight area and which
is one of the reasons they've always used that as a weapon.
Iran has always used that as an economic weapon and it's not going to be able to use be used
very long.
Numerous countries have told me they're on the way.
Some are very enthusiastic about it, and some are in some of the countries that we've helped
for many, many years.
We've protected them from horrible outside sources, and they weren't that enthusiastic.
And the level of enthusiasm that matters to me.
We have some countries where we have 45,000 soldiers, great soldiers protecting them from
harm's way.
And we have done a great job and well we want to know, do you have any mind sweepers?
Well we would rather not get involved sir, that's it for you mean, for 40 years we're
protecting you and you don't want to get involved in something that is very minor.
Very few shots are going to be taken because they don't have many shots left.
But they say we'd rather not get involved.
I just want the fake news media and everybody else to remember that that was said because
when, and I've been a big critic of all of the protecting of countries because I know
that we'll protect them and if ever needed, if we ever needed help, they won't be there
for us.
I've just known that for a long period of time, just like I knew about the strait that
it would be a weapon.
we're going to do is we're going to, we could take a few questions from the press.
Oh, I also met the journalist, the New York Times journalist that asked Trump that question about
how he was the only one in the administration that's like,
how he was the only one in the admin that was actually saying like,
like, um, uh, uh, that, that, uh, America had not struck, uh, the, the school.
Yeah.
He said he appreciated that I hyped his ass up.
Why would China help us?
If there is no, there's no reason.
Meersheimer is not sugarcoating it. We're not waiting against Iran. Yeah. I don't know why people are,
I mean, I know why people are coping, right? I know why people are coping because if you've had a
lifetime of like American dominance, okay? And even when like, you know, Afghanistan was a failure,
Iraq was a failure, Vietnam was a failure, all these things were failures, but they were technically
successes for the capital owning class because those wars were not meant to be those wars
were not there to like win right those weren't like military successes those wars were there
for what is happening today what the fuck is the Israeli bots back or something I thought
they hit the data center. What's going on today? Is it because of the Vanity Fair Party
and there's like, you know, some positive PR around so they have to like spam it or
something? Is it the Hosbara budget? Where is this coming from? I was genuinely BB
harassing you from beyond the grave. Yeah. Michael Fullscoe Art, thank you for the 50 big ones.
Osborne is an overdrive all over social media at the moment.
They migrated, they serviced the AWS, so anyway, we were, they're talking about that one, Asmold
What do you mean? Oh yeah, it's as many gold with the Israeli shock collar.
So all of those other wars, all of those other wars, right, like Afghanistan or Iraq, like
there are military objectives, but like ultimately it's supposed to be a way to like, uh, blow
defense contracts, right? Like for the military industrial complex and things like that.
on the other hand is not a way where you can like force project a way where you can show
how dominant you are as a military force like this is not this this doesn't have any like
discernible W in the near future or in the far future. Okay. There is nothing here that
you can hold on to because it has been devastating for the energy markets. So no one is actually
like no one on on the the american economy side is actually going to see any positive
reverberations from this um it's actually been devastating for american force projection
capabilities because like when we did shock and awe from a from a from the standpoint of like
someone working at the state department or someone working in the american government
you have this idea that like we can go anywhere around the world in 24 hours and we can destroy
them. Like we can destroy our enemies no matter how strong they might be, right? And the issue here is
we completely lost that. We completely lost that. We showed everyone that we can't even protect our
allies that an American security cooperation doesn't actually offer you security at all.
It is a total paper tiger moment for America, right? Our foreign adversaries are doing fantastic.
Russia is doing amazing in this process, cuz now we have to release some of those sanctions.
We have to do sanctions easement on Russia so that these other countries don't completely
collapse.
Russia is a major energy provider, and now they have massive leverage in this process.
It's again, another opportunity for leverage for China as well, both because everything
that takes away from the American power, American imperialism capability, you know, everyone
saw your ass out on stream. Saw our ass out on stream. Everyone saw our ass out on stream.
Yeah. This is the one where I think we can be pretty confident saying there was no real
plan here. That was an idea of what they wanted, but they didn't really plan a scenario
so it's Venezuela 2.0. Yeah, it's just like, it's crazy because the Venezuela one was fairly
in and out, right?
The Venezuela one is like, it was a quick extraction campaign. It was illegal. It was
totally ridiculous. But like Trump understood and got assurances, very clearly got assurances
ahead of time, from Trump very clearly got assurances ahead of time from the Venezuelan
government that the Delcey Rodriguez administration was gonna play ball with them.
It's very clear, like the leadership, there was a contingency plan.
There was an idea of like what the next day would look like once Maduro was kidnapped.
And while that's completely illegal, completely unjustifiable, it was a relatively swift process,
as I said at the time as well.
I was like, this is completely unacceptable.
We're broaching new territory here.
Having said that, however, this is very much the exact kind of Trump plan that he likes
to do.
Kasem Suleymani as well, like the assassination of Kasem Suleymani was a new era of American
assassinations of like high-ranking leadership of foreign adversaries. It was a big gamble,
but Iran demonstrated tremendous restraint as a consequence or in the aftermath of that.
So that didn't actually end up exploding in Trump's face, even though it was a fucking
idiotic gamble, because what's happening right now in Iran could have happened back then,
So, we have found out, at least by now, what kind of military campaign Trump likes to do,
and what kind of military campaign Trump doesn't like to do.
He will behave like a madman and do things that previous administrations have shied away
from.
This is clear, right?
He very clearly will go in and kill a leader of a foreign country, of a foreign adversary,
for example.
He'll go in and kidnap the foreign leader of a country.
But he does not like having long-standing military occupations up until now.
This is a new moment in his administration because right now he's kind of being forced
into a situation
where he has to commit
additional troops
uh... to an extended bombing campaign to an extended boots on the ground
military occupation in a massive country like iran
i don't think he wants to be there
i don't think he was to be there at all i think
in his mind this was a you know four-day campaign maximum
scare the rest of the administration
uh... after you decapitated leadership in high-ranking generals
find someone who will comply, possibly an IRGC guy, and then work with that guy to set
up Western interests inside of the country, except that's not what happened because this
is coming off the heels of 47 years of instability, 47 years of directly stabilizing efforts
in Iran and trying to kill Iranian citizens, successfully killing Iranian citizens through
sanctions through the Iran-Iraq war and numerous other endeavors, and also having fake negotiations
set up.
And the major reason as to why this is different is because this wasn't conducted by the American
side.
This was conducted by the Israeli side.
The Israeli side gave Trump all of the idiotic things, all of the idiotic information
that is totally, totally not true, and told them how easy this would be when it was very
clear it wasn't going to be an easy campaign at all.
And anyone and everyone could have told you a mile away that this was going to be a long-standing,
incredibly consequential, devastating predicament, millions of lives lost if it continues,
right?
An energy crisis around the world that no one wanted, but everyone predicted.
Donald Trump hates being in a situation like that.
He hates being in a situation like that.
But now he's stuck.
And it's pretty crazy because you see it.
You see the, I mean, this is a joke, but it's not really.
Trump 228, wars about nukes, 3-1, declared victory, 3-3, wars about U.S. elections, 3-4,
wars about human rights, 3-7, we're winning the war, 3-11, declared victory five times
over. 314, war is won, allies need to help. 313 to 315, war is won and liberating LGBTQ.
316, Ayatollah Khamenei is gay. It's remarkable because you rarely ever see such poor messaging
discipline from the American administration. You rarely ever see an American administration
regards to how bad the war efforts are going, kind of fall apart with no pushback whatsoever.
Like these guys are folding with zero pushback. I mean, I guess militarily there's maximum
pushback from Iran, and it's very obvious. And I joked about this before, but like Trump's
attitude here is, oh shit, Iran got hands. Also, don't they know it's illegal, right?
they know it's illegal to fight back. And for the record, I've been joking about this for the last
three weeks now as we are in the third week of Operation Epstein's Fury. But Trump basically did
say that. So it's a little unfair. You know, you win a war, but they have no right to be doing
what they're doing, but we're hitting them very hard. And today is a big day where we're pounding
a certain area that has very much to do with the strait.
And I think we'll get it going, verse one.
So it's, isn't that crazy?
Is kind of unbelievable that, you know, Trump is just out here saying the quiet part out
loud again, right?
just straight up saying it should be illegal to fight back the way that Iran is fighting back.
How dare they? You're not supposed to go after, you're not supposed to go after me,
you're not supposed to go after my friends, you're not supposed to go after my radar installations
in the fucking region, right? Why, like, you're not supposed to close the
straight up Harmuz, why are you doing that? Don't you know you're supposed to just like
sit there and eat it. And I guess like if you are only used to just dominated countries that
have already been previously dominated, previously destabilized, um, this is a moment where,
you know, this is this a moment where you're like a little shocked, you're like a little confused,
you're like, wait a minute. Why the hell are they, where the hell are they successfully
mounting an opposition why the hell are they successfully fucking
fighting back and then after that we'll have our meeting and we have a little lunch for the
for the board so we'll have a little bit of a lunch and it's an honor to have you have a lunch
so many of you Jimmy so many of you are friends it's a great honor to have you here and we're
going to do a great job with the trump kennedy center okay yes please cnn yeah yeah
Thank you, Mr. President. I'm not seeing it and I'm daily wire, but the question numerous
countries have told me they are on their way. Can you give us a hint what they are what that
entails has to and they might be there. Even who are the countries? Yes, sir. I'd rather
not say yet, but we'll be announcing a marker Rubio and the various people that are doing
that will be announcing and we do. I have to tell you, we have some that are really
enthusiastic. They're coming already. They've already started to get there. It takes a little
while to get there. It's like, in some cases, you have to travel an ocean. So it doesn't
go that fast. But it'll go fast. And we have some that are fairly local that are doing
it. But we'll be in that. We'll give you a list. Some are very enthusiastic and some
are less than enthusiastic. And I assume some will not do it. I think we have
one or two that will not do it, that we've been protecting for about 40 years at, you
know, tens of billions of dollars, Mr. Speaker. So I'll be reporting that to you in the House
and the Senate, and I'll say, why are we protecting countries that don't protect us? And I've
always felt that was a weakness of NATO. We were going to protect them, but I always
said when in need, they won't protect us. Now, this isn't need. Need would be one
of the big boys, but I will say that we built the greatest military in the world and we protect
people and if we need their mindboats or if we need anything, any piece of apparatus that
they may have because of a situation that they have, they should be jumping to help
us because we've helped them for years, stay out of wars, yeah please.
That's not true, by the way.
There's never been a moment where America has caused the rest of the world to not get into
wars.
It is the exact opposite.
And it's funny because Donald Trump would admit that last time he was running for president,
right?
That's the type of thing that you would hear from Trump.
He'd be like, we're always trying to get into other people's business and then forcing
the rest of the world to come with us.
unacceptable why are we over there destabilizing the world like that's what he used to say in 2016
that's what he used to say in 2024 it's so crazy now that it's like it's you know now that big daddy
big yahoo was like you got to get in here you got to get in here and fuck this shit up okay he's
like that's right everyone why aren't they why aren't they doing it with us why aren't they so
excited so giddy at the prospect of allowing their sailors to die. Why are they not allowing
their sailors to die so that big yahoo can continue his war? That's right. I love him.
I love satan yahoo. He is my favorite.
Can you tell us if you have spoken with French President Macron about the coalition to reopen?
Yeah, most of the countries he's complaining about have followed the U.S. into all of our
wars, which again, were all completely ridiculous, should have never happened.
And weirdly enough, obviously still benefited Israel's ambitions in the region and also
are other regional allies as well. This is a unique one though because this is the one where it
only benefits Israel and pretty much nobody else. And let's be real it might not even be beneficial
for Israel if America cannot keep up its steady defense of the most moral nation on the planet,
the only nation that matters. Am Israel high? Am Israel high? I love the nation state of Israel,
right? So this might not even be good for fucking Israel if it keeps going the way it's going.
I think.
Oh.
Straight of Hormuz. Have you been speaking with the French president?
What does that mean?
Have you been speaking with the French president Macron about the coalition to reopen the Straight of Hormuz?
Yeah, I have spoken to him.
He's been on a scale of zero to ten.
He's been an aide, not perfect, but it's France.
We don't expect perfect.
Are you confident that France will help
with the reopening of Strait of Hormuz?
Yeah, I mean, sure, he's gonna,
I think he's gonna help, I mean, I'll let you know.
I spoke to him yesterday.
I don't do a hard sell on them
because my attitude is we don't need anybody.
We're the strongest nation in the world.
We have the strongest.
Is that really, is that really what's going on, big dog?
I mean, I mean,
bro said, yeah, I mean, sure.
Yeah, we don't need anybody except if all the vassals
don't fucking come out and defend us
with their military because we really fucked up. I'm gonna be super mad. I don't see any
way out of this other than de-escalation. I find it objectively strange that de-escalation
is not a part of the conversation. I find it very odd that Trump is not trying to cut
Israel out of the equation, even at this stage. And to say, you know what? We're gonna find
a manageable conclusion here, a solution that makes a little bit more sense for everybody
involved. Let's not light up the entire energy markets on fire as we have done so over the
past 16 days. Let's find, let's de-escalate, let's allow Iran to maintain sovereignty
We will, you know, we will get a tactical W here because we'd like destroyed, we can
just say we destroyed their military capabilities, right?
It's just cope, but like sometimes you need to eat that fucking cope, because if you don't,
where is this supposed to go?
It's military by far in the world.
We don't need them, but it's interesting.
I'm almost doing it in some cases, not because we need them, but because I want
to find out how they react.
Because I've been saying for years
that if we ever did need them, they won't be there.
Not all of them, but they won't be there.
I was very surprised with the United Kingdom.
Because the United Kingdom, two weeks ago,
I said, why don't you send some ships over?
And he really didn't want to do it.
I said, you don't want to do it.
We've been with you a year, our oldest ally.
And we spend a lot of money on NATO
and all of these things to protect you.
I mean, we're protecting them.
We're working with them on Ukraine.
Ukraine's thousands of miles away,
separated by a vast ocean.
We don't have to do that, but we did it.
Well, Biden did it.
I mean, I have to be honest with you,
it's three, Biden got taken to the cleaners.
But we worked with them in Ukraine.
We don't need to work with them in Ukraine.
And then they tell us that we have a mineship around
and they don't want to do it.
I think it's terrible.
No, I was very surprised.
I told him, you know, we requested two aircraft carriers,
which they had, and he didn't really want to do it.
And then right after the war essentially ended,
you know, meaning they were obliterated,
he said, I would like to send the aircraft carriers.
I said, I don't need them after the wars ended and won.
I need it before the war.
So I was very upset with, not upset,
I was not happy with the UK.
I think they'll be involved, yeah, maybe.
But they should be involved enthusiastically.
We've been protecting these countries for years
with NATO, because NATO is us.
You can ask Putin.
Putin fears us.
He doesn't fear.
He has no fear of Europe whatsoever.
He fears the United States of America
and the military that was built by me in the first term.
Yeah.
You mentioned the significant amount of oil
that China derives from the Middle East. What is the status of your conversation with President
Xi in terms of getting China to cooperate, in terms of making the-
Yeah, why would that happen? Can you explain, Mr. President, please explain to me why
the country that we have agitated against, the country that we claim is our number one
foreign adversary. Why would that country come out and help us, Mr. President, when
The Strait of Hormuz is closed for everyone except for China and also now numerous other
countries that are cutting side deals with the nation of Iran.
Why would anybody do that?
Like, look at his fucking face.
Look at his face!
He doesn't even need to answer the question.
Look at his face!
Look at the fucking face!
Why?
Why should China ever in a million fucking years turn around and be like, oh yeah, let
me fix your fuck up while you're still bombing Iran?
Why would that happen?
Not only is it not beneficial for China's interest, okay?
The very fact that we have endlessly postured against this other foreign nation over and
over again while demanding a fucking bailout once more like it's 2008 because that's what happened by
the way in 2008 China bailed us out they played a major role in stabilizing our economy because at
the time it was a necessity for the entire globe okay for for the international markets
so China played a role in bailing us out in 2008 an often forgotten aspect of our endless
posturing against China there's so many fucking idiots that still come in here
and they're like China this China that China is the scariest country on the
fucking planet it's like bro we we would have cratered due to our unlimited
greed we would have cratered the fucking global marketplace if it wasn't for
China bailing us out in 2008 because you know they they recognized that they
needed us to be the consumption engine so they could continue fucking
developing so they could continue selling goddamn la boo boo's and trade
maxing and now once again the demand is there we fucked it up now you have to
come in and save us and it doesn't make any fucking sense it does not make any
sense whatsoever and and yet as always for the record the ones that are
getting screwed over the hardest, aside from the Gulf States, who thought that they could
just have American bases, American military bases and American assets on their soil. And
then, you know, America just launches a war against their massive sovereign neighboring
country, Iran. And they would just get away scot-free for some reason. I don't know
why they thought that, right? They thought, oh, well, Iran is restrained. They always
do restraint. They'll be fine. Well, you killed the one guy who was clearly holding it back.
Okay. Yeah, the restrained parties got killed. And for the record, if I can see it, because
I called it out ahead of time, I said it over and over again to deaf ears, not in this
community, but in general I kept repeating Ayatollah Ali Hamenei is a very restrained party.
I know it sounds crazy to say, like think about when you first heard me say that.
And this wasn't even like a couple months ago.
I've been saying that for the past like two years, right?
Whenever Israel would blow up like an Iranian embassy or something in Damascus, and then
there was very little pushback from iran
i kept repeatedly telling you over and over again
i told allie how many i know it sounds crazy to hear
but i told allie how many is one of the most restrained
parties
in this entire conflict
okay
and now he's dead
we assassinated him in his home
at the age of eighty seven
in the first in the opening salvo
following along Israel's endless ambitions of destabilizing this region.
We killed them, we killed his family,
we killed a bunch of other IRGC generals in the process as well.
And they were backed into a corner and forced to fight out of it.
And now here we are
In this grand fuck-up entering the third week of Operation Epic Fortnight, Operation Epstein's
Fury, whatever you want to fucking call it.
And the question is, how can you get President Xi to fix your fuck-up?
And this is our stupid baboon president's face.
I mean, the last time US attacked Iran, all Iran did was launch a few bombs at a basin
cutter while warning way ahead of time, hitting an empty area and clearing it with the US beforehand.
Commonays MO with strategic off ramps. Exactly. Strategic restraint was the name of the game.
And I said it over and over again. It sounds crazy. Think about, think about how insane you thought
I was when you first heard me say this two years ago. Now think where you're at now.
Because for many Americans, they've never even thought about a foreign adversary,
especially one that wears a turban. Oh, he's a religious figure, he's usually has a crazy.
We know that they're barbaric, they're barbarians, right? For the average American,
it's not even within their capacity to understand that other countries that we have
designed as permanent enemies might not actually present a significant threat to us
until we force them to become a significant threat, okay?
Okay?
The reason why I'm bringing this up over and over again is because the same principle
stands with Hassan Nasrallah as well, leader of the general sector of Hezbollah that was
assassinated by Israel.
And you should always factor that into your analysis, like what you have been taught for
years and years might not necessarily be the case.
So when you hear something that doesn't sit right with you because it doesn't correspond
to your, you know, to your social development, to how you've learned about these countries,
these countries of the periphery, these enemy states.
Just remember that.
You can overcome that hurdle so you can make better analysis, so you can conduct better
analysis in general.
As well as the same thing, Hezbollah had the same type of threat making, but little
military action that Iran did exactly. Don't un-pause the video it lives on. Welp. That's
funny I like that we immediately turn it into an emo.
Straight-Ave Hormuz safe for those oil tankers.
So China is a great example.
They get 91 percent of their oil from the harmless straits, which we've protected for
years.
And it always bothered me that we have these countries.
Japan gets 95 percent of its from the straits, the harmless straits.
And it always bothered me that we're protecting and we don't need them.
We didn't need them before we started Dig We Must.
Dig Me Must, that's the Trump policy of lots of oil.
And we didn't use them very much.
It used to be a 10%.
Now it's at almost zero.
We don't need oil.
We have all the oil we need for ourselves.
It's one of the great assets that we have.
We have double, more than double what anybody else in terms of oil production, we're at
more than double any other country.
So we don't need it, but we did it.
It's almost...
Awesome. No, keep, keep explaining to everyone that we actually don't even suffer from this.
We're just fucking up the rest of the world's energy because we're totally isolated. This is great.
This is great. Hey, by the way, how are the fucking oil prices doing in America right now?
Cause, cause the other part of this is you have to go to the, to the oil and gas industry
and demand that they overproduce, at least for the American markets, and not actually
sell their oil and gas to other partners, which would collapse, which would totally
crater their energy markets again, right? Or overproduce by such an unimaginable degree
that we don't have the capabilities to do so at this moment for the record.
It's like literally impossible to make up for the market loss, right?
that you can stabilize the entire globe's energy on your own, you can't do that.
You can't fucking do that.
You can't out drill partially because you can't out ship.
You can't just magically reroute the entire world's energy outside of the United States
of America.
You're like, okay, we're just going into super, we're super charging our oil production.
Okay, what are you going to do when you don't have fucking ships?
You don't have the tankers, you don't have the facilities.
There's just no way, like it's just not possible, especially in the short term.
That's not how the complex web that we have designed in the international energy commodities
market, it's not, you can't just like magically flip a switch and decide America is now going
to make up for the fucking, the lack of supply.
This just doesn't work that way.
You need fucking oil tankers.
You need a massive runway.
You need to start the refineries ahead of time.
it takes a while to get up to the capacity necessary.
It's all because of capitalism.
A competent country would place price controls
and export controls for oil.
No, no, because even if America was like China
and had complete control over its energy extraction
and decided to literally refuse to sell
they could stabilize here. Then what is Europe gonna do? What is Asia gonna do? Do you not
understand? Not only do we not have the price control capabilities internally, especially
for the oil and gas industry, that's not the goal here. That's never been the goal. That's
not how America works, right?
Haven't seen Kai for a while, did animal control finally save her? I swear to God, I think
I think it's got to be the vanity fair thing, right?
She's right here, chatter.
I just don't use that camera angle anymore
because this one's hotter.
This one's more personal.
You think that's what it is?
The coyotola is sleepy.
But yeah, even if you, even if countries around the world
world that have more capabilities of releasing their strategic reserves and trying to do export
controls and stuff like that.
There are plenty of countries that need oil, that need to get imported oil.
So in that predicament, in that situation, what are those countries supposed to do?
Do they just collapse?
I mean, look at what we're doing in Cuba right now.
Cuba doesn't have oil refineries.
needs oil to be imported into the country. Cuba exports sugar. Cuba gets oil in exchange for
that, right? Like that's, or that was the bargain initially. That was the design initially.
Because what we did to Cuba in three months was cut off their oil supply from every other
country that used to send them oil, Canada being one of the countries, Mexico being another one,
in Venezuela, right? These were like the three primary oil shipping countries, the Cuba.
We obviously overtook Venezuela, and we started intercepting tankers that were sending oil to
Cuba. And on top of that, we told Mexico and Canada that they were no longer allowed to send
oil to Cuba. We completely shut their energy grid off. Today, you're hearing about the
Cuban energy grid collapsing as a direct consequence of their three months of not having
any fucking oil standard in the country. That is what every other country would look like that
needs oil imports, you understand? So even if America was capable of releasing their strategic
reserves and also capable of price controls, which not going to happen, but let's say we
we did do that, right?
Or capable of demanding that our oil producers produce
much more refined, much more oil
in order to stabilize the market.
We don't have the capacity to stabilize the market.
Even if we were to internally stabilize our prices,
the rest of the world would have their energy grids collapse.
This is like everything is interconnected.
The energy markets are all interconnected.
So it's not even just capitalism that's a play here, it's the devastating impact of when imperialism actually does fail because it just totally destabilizes everything.
It's unbelievable.
we did it out of habit which is not a good thing to do but we did it because we
have some good allies there we have it's also extra believable because the guy
doing it is such a fucking baboon Middle Eastern countries there Israel there so
we did it for a lot of reasons but it always amazed me that we did it we never
asked for reimbursement and it was really there to serve other countries
not us. And by the way we have the sugar king. The same story. Look at that. Alfie
Farnpool. Alfie thank you both very much. That's Peppy here. Peppy, hi Peppy. How are
you? How are you? Is Alfie in the back stage? Is he sitting back there waiting for you?
You doing all right?
Pepe is a great friend of all of us, I think, in the room, tremendous, and we appreciate
you being here.
Great, great to have you.
Thank you.
Mr. President, honored.
That's great.
Both of you, thank you very much.
So go ahead, please.
Thank you, Mr. President.
Mr. President, you've said that Iran does want to make a deal.
Now in the third week of this bombing campaign, what would that deal look like?
What are the asks that you're making of the government?
They want to make a deal, they're talking to our people.
I don't know if they say that to you,
maybe they do, maybe they don't.
Don't forget, they are a country that for years,
I didn't know this until recently,
they're a country based on disinformation,
and now they're using disinformation plus AI,
and that's a terrible situation.
They showed all sorts of things happening
in the last two weeks that never happened.
Between the kamikaze boats that don't exist,
between blowing up the aircraft carrier,
one of the great ships in the world,
the Abraham Lincoln on fire.
They showed it on fire.
I called the general.
I said, general, what's with the Abraham Lincoln?
Looks like it's burning down.
No, it's not burning down.
Not a bullet was ever fired at it, sir.
They know better.
They said, this is my first glimpse of-
They literally keep begging.
By the way, there is a lot of fucking AI bullshit.
And obviously, like, you know, I don't,
unlike the president, I don't fall for the AI slop.
And I try to urge you not to fall for the AI slop either.
But the Iranian government has actively been begging
for American naval assets to try and go through the Strait of Hormuz.
They have agitated for it over and over again.
They have demanded it over and over again.
This is what they want.
They want to go to America into sending a fucking ship through the kill zone so they
can pummel it and take a massive fucking W, okay?
They want, yeah, they want the money shot.
They want an American naval asset to try to cross the Strait of Hormuz, which is literally
crossable only by a two-mile area that is what is effectively known as a choke point
or a kill zone, okay?
Any naval asset that tries to cross through that is going to get fucking pummeled, okay?
They're also demanding boots on the ground.
The Iranian military command, Mox Trump says the operation should be called epic fear, not
epic fury.
Iran's Qatar on the central headquarters, the wartime command and coordinates operation
across Iran armed forces shares a message in English directed at Trump.
This motherfucker swapped it.
He said it's English time and message to the president of the United States, the
outcome of war.
of the united estates cannot be determined by tweets the result of a war is determined in
their field the very place where you and your forces do not dare to approach and you can only
talk about it in your tweets it's better to name this war as epic fear instead of epic fury
That's crazy! Bro! Bro! Bro! Is this going well? Is this going well, guys? Guys, is it going well? I don't think it's going well.
And for the record, the conditions might change, right? America is so crazy. They could deploy a fucking nuke.
America's so insane that, and has such unlimited offensive capabilities that they could technically
like genuinely destroy enough launchers that they're, they can't like build them fast enough
even though it's like fairly easy to put together with scrap metal.
Like let's say that happens.
It doesn't matter because even if America somehow was able to turn this around and
like Secura W at the end, which I don't think is likely. The L's that we have taken thus far,
the L's that we have taken thus far are going to have reverberations for decades from here
on out. The very fact that the last 16 days have shown the rest of the world that America
is completely fucking incapable of defending American military bases and American assets
has set back America's force projection capabilities in a way, Hassan your deconstruction of this
is incredibly inaccurate Lamal, sure buddy, sure. You're so right. You can keep, you
can keep leaning in to wherever you're getting maximalist cope from, okay? I have no dog in
this fight beyond the fact that I want American imperialism to end, okay? I want Western imperialism
to end. I want countries that have dignity. I want countries that have sovereignty, right?
But if you think out between the United States, Israel, and Iran, who has a upper hand so
far, all you need to look at is whether or not the Strait of Hormuz is open. And it's
objectively not open. It's still closed. The energy markets are still collapsing. So clearly,
this is not the epic victory that America thought it was going to be.
the U.S. Secretary of War declares no quarter. He doesn't project strength. He conveys moral
bankruptcy and ignorance about law and armed, law of armed conflict. We advise him to review
the Hague convention and Rome statue to the ICC unless he aspires to join Netanyahu's
war criminal. Yeah, that's not going to happen, man. This is what I mean. These guys
are like too predisposed with like international rules, rules of engagement, humanitarian
rights. Like it's not America does not fucking play by those rules. Like you
You have to figure this out by now. You have to figure this out by now. Please. We're literally
starving the island of Cuba as a side project that we, we, we've basically put on autopilot.
America is not held back by any fucking rules or standards whatsoever. And the rest of the
world will never see that either. Unless you militarily embarrass the country. Okay.
You have to create military deterrence, which is what the IRGC is doing right now.
Any kind of like mention of international rights is so ridiculous like it's just not
going to work.
Yeah, Iran believes in the American people more than I do at this point is right.
It's crazy.
It's crazy.
the Shia smirk once again. Many people are saying it. Put that in the Shia smirk compilation
next to Arakshi next to the, to the onset of a log eye is always the same. Hegs had a
really funny meltdown as well. I can't wait to watch that. That was really funny. He's
like, Oh dude straight is open. We just have tactical ambitions and we're going to
accomplish those tactical ambitions, but if we don't accomplish those tactical
ambitions, then we won't. And everyone needs to shut up.
AI and what they've done with it, they showed buildings in Tel Aviv burning to
the ground, high rises burning. They showed buildings in Qatar. They showed
buildings in Saudi Arabia. How bad is the damage in Israel really? I don't
have social media. It's not as bad as people presented. The damage in Israel
is nowhere near as bad as the way AI videos show. There's a lot of misinformation around
it. But this is not even about punishing Israel. This is about punishing America, okay? Because
you can chip away at their stockpile, you can chip away at their defensive munitions,
slowly but surely. But given the weapons that Iran has been using to strike Israel,
not even trying to do that really. Hezbollah is, Hezbollah is certainly eating away at the
stockpile a lot more than Iran is right now. Because the stuff that Iran is using for the
most part either get intercepted in transit or the ones that they use, the ones that
Iran uses that don't get intercepted are cluster munitions. I know people say, oh,
actually, you know, they're like reentry vehicles. It's not technically a cluster munition. It's
functionally a cluster munition. Please. It's it's ridiculous. It's a distinction without
difference the way that they're deploying some of these weapons, right? Um, it opens
up a super high altitude and and dumps like 80 fucking warheads, uh, on top of, you
know, they, they have, yeah, 80 sub munitions that they're dumping on top of like the,
the Israeli defenses, and that the reason why they're using that is very clearly to create
an insecure environment for like regular Israeli society.
They wouldn't be using that if they wanted to destroy the defensive capabilities that
Israel has, right?
Because those are not interceptable, right?
Those are not interceptable munitions.
kind of deliberately why they're using those munitions. If they wanted to, if they wanted to
eat away at the, the Tamir interceptors they have or the aerobalistics that they have,
the ballistic munitions that they have in the aero systems, they would be using different
kinds of ballistic missiles that require that, that are interceptable, right?
As Theodore Apostle notes, when an interception happens, very obvious there's a big explosion
in the incoming warhead, and the fact that we don't see this often is a mark of how rare it is.
Look, that's what an interception, a successful interception looks like.
Dordash driver got really nasty with me because he heard your voice in the background lol wait what?
You got a hater?
You are wrong on the demarcation between MERVs and a cluster.
Dude.
It's a distinction without a difference. Okay, it doesn't matter. I don't know why you guys are like holding on to this as though
Like it doesn't matter because guess what America and Israel refused to abide by refused to sign on to
uh... at the the cluster munitions provision anyway
they're not even had like it doesn't matter they love to play in cluster
munitions themselves american israel both do this
and on top of that
uh... on top of that like it's it's it's silly to try to make this
distinction
uh... when it's
when the when the uh... it
when the goal of the way that they're using these uh... missiles is
basically a cluster munition
It's not interceptable.
That's why they're using it.
Shatter is right.
Clusters it indiscriminately
after deploying at very low altitude.
MRVs can further target after deployment.
No, most of the ones that they're using
are not fucking targeting.
The sub munitions are not targeting.
They're just falling.
they're falling in whatever random area that they're hitting.
And those munitions normally are supposed to be
like a shotgun blast,
and they're supposed to open up much closer to the target
to make sure that the area that it's spreading,
the area of impact that it spreads to is,
where like, I don't know,
the military barracks are, for example.
Like that's what they're supposed to be used for,
but they're exploding them at such high altitude
so that it doesn't get intercepted
that the goal there is to
the goal there is to just have eighty sub munitions that
that open up on top of the israeli airspace
and fall on top of cars fall on top of buildings it's like the goal is to
have a widespread area of impact
so they're not even using the the uh... bliss munitions in the way that they
normally would
and it's a semantics argument
i'm not i don't have enough missile autism i'm just literally looking at
what they're doing
and how they're using these men uh... munitions
normally from what i understand the way that those uh... the way that those
ballistic missiles are used is
uh... is to to it's like anti-personnel right you're supposed to
use it like a shotgun blast
uh... as as as like uh... bird shot spread it into a limited area you can
still obviously target a limited area
uh... a a smaller area depending on where you open up the cluster munitions
but
uh... but the the way that the sub munitions get deployed is is such
high altitude that it's very clearly, it's very clearly being used as a way to, to maximize
the damage. And the reason why I'm saying that, the reason why I'm saying that is in
spite of the fact that America doesn't give a shit anyways, it doesn't fucking matter.
But the reason why I'm bringing this up is because if they wanted to, if they wanted
to, or if they had the capability still to do so, I don't know if this is within the capacity
the Iranian launches anyway at this moment, right? Or whether it's for some other reason,
and I suspect that it's because their capabilities have been treated successfully
through endless American strikes. They have limited denial capabilities
regardless inside of Iran. And, uh, and, and, you know, America doesn't have like complete
air superiority, but like they've had, they've actually been able to shut off entry points
in these caves, blow up enough TELs. Like it's obvious that it's obvious that they're
having a harder time deploying some of their older missiles, right? Cause they have a
massive stockpile of older tech that they could just dump on top of the Israeli airspace
right now, if their primary goal was to destroy the air defense capabilities by the Israeli
air defense capabilities by just like constantly pummeling Israel over and over again.
Iran is claiming to be using the old stuff, not the new stuff.
This is true.
Iran has been using the old stuff, but the oldest stuff that they have in their
stockpile, they were using in the first couple of days.
If you remember, the strikes were much more frequent, much more intense, and America had
not been able to successfully figure out where the launch sites were, and was not doing.
You can see with the density of how many missiles that Iran was launching at Israel in the first
couple of days as opposed to right now, where there's like four to five, most of them
get intercepted and the ones that don't get intercepted are the ones that open up way
above in high altitude that just pepper sub munitions on top of the Israeli airspace.
Also the number, the casualty numbers have gone up again, U.S. troops wounded in Ron
Warps surpasses 200 across seven countries.
Those numbers are going to keep going up as well.
The submunitions are not independently targetable, so they are MRVs rather than MIRVs.
However, they're functionally a bit different from cluster munitions because the MRVs are
fewer and more powerful, making them perfect for hidden targets like airfields.
And each of the MRVs are strong enough to blow up planes on the airfields.
Cluster munitions are more used against personnel since they have more bomblets that are
weaker.
Sure.
Israel's actively demolishing and using ban issues in south Lebanon. I know, I know, I know Israel doesn't abide by any fucking international rule. It doesn't matter.
If you know this much about missiles and that's not your literal job, you need to do some self-reflection.
No, I think there are a lot of people who are deeply autistic and autistic in the missile sense.
It's not semantics. There's a huge difference between the two in terms of strategic capability
and the implications for the recipients of the missile. Iran isn't using MIRVs,
which would let them hit a bunch of targets precisely.
only firing missiles with cluster warheads, MRVs. Soviets getting MIRVs is a part of why
America finally sought nuclear arms control.
Okay. I don't know why we're arguing over this. The reason why I was bringing up the
The type of munitions that Iran is using is if their goal is to deteriorate the munitions
stockpile that Israel has, their defensive munitions stockpile, then they wouldn't be
using the type of missiles that they're using currently.
They would go back to the previous barrage, like overwhelming barrage, like volley after
volley process that they had in the first couple of days. They're not doing that. And
the, like the two different schools of thought on it is one, they're not doing that because
they're incapable of doing that because too many of their TALs have been destroyed. And
they haven't been able to keep up with the, with the destruction, because like the
American and Israeli side are just like constantly pummeling them with these, with these
aerial missions, right, and also with the loitering drones and drone strikes that also take place as well and
the other school of thought is that Iran is simply not doing that because
they have a higher interception or they have a higher strike targeting
efficiency and
Therefore they're changing the types of missiles that you're using but I think that's a little bit cope. I think the truth is
America is lying about how much they have been able to forcefully atrit Iran's launching capabilities.
But I also do think that Iran's launching capabilities have experienced attrition.
And that is the reason why they're not using the same consistent volley principle that they were using initially.
And also because they're bunkering in for a much longer war.
Iran's goal isn't to actually destroy the enemy militarily.
it's to make them so so disruptive to the flow of commerce that the aggressors have to give up
they can achieve that which is the few successful drones a day or even the persistent threat of it
exactly for sure i just find it very suspect that besides the plane incident in iraq the only
u.s soldiers have died were in a single attack on day one but it's also hard to believe that they
couldn't keep they could keep a lead on lid on the fatales given all the civilians that would
just know, just weird. I agree. I still suspect, well, I've explained to you guys how they hide it.
So the majority of the, first of all, a lot of the guys that are there are defense contractors,
right? And defense contractors don't have the same, like the American military doesn't have the
the same responsibility of reporting defense contractors that die in the same way, like
even if it's a combat casualty, if it's a defense contractor, you don't hear about it.
If it's an active duty service member, they have also ways of holding back the information,
I guess.
they can, you know, if they're wounded in action, you don't know the severity of the wounding,
you don't know how bad it is. I mean, they're knocked out of combat for the most part though.
So that's why the casualty numbers are important. The casualty numbers are fairly indicative
of like how many people have been knocked out of combat.
Honestly the number of operation by Iran have not decreased, they just changed around depending
on what their next targets are.
It's believable because didn't they close all the bases in the Middle East, they're
mainly operating out of Europe in their aircraft carriers now?
You don't define terrorism as a few drones are there the threat of it to shut down the
world old supply, a few pop shots inspire fear in order to gain false representation
of power?
Yeah, it's called asymmetrical warfare for the record.
You can't fucking, we're talking about sovereign states now.
This is state versus state violence.
Unfortunately the terrorism designation doesn't work as easily because it's not a non-state
actor.
You could say it's a rogue state, but you can't say it's a non-state actor.
So it's not just, it's not as easy to belittle and bully and ruthlessly lie about a foreign
adversary in spite of the American need and the American capabilities of doing so by way
of mainstream media.
There's a reason why it's a little different.
You don't hear from Hamas militancy, but you do hear from the foreign minister of fucking
Iran, a country with 93 million people in it.
Okay?
Do you understand how things change, the dynamic shifts a little bit?
I'm sure the media would love to refuse to cover that, but there's obviously a lot of
appetite from the masses to hear from the other side on this.
It's much easier to belittle.
It's much easier to propagandize the public against terrorism when it's a non-state actor,
when it's a militant resistance group fighting against a foreign ally that is the most important
foreign ally of all time.
That's why it's so easy to say Hezbollah are terrorists, Hamas are terrorists.
barbaric, they're ruthless, they're brutal, but it's a little bit different when it's actually
a state actor that has been wronged by us, that has been shot at by us.
We started this.
So yeah, you can fucking sit around and be like, well, why are they using cluster munitions?
Why are they using drone warfare?
Isn't this a threat of terror?
But at that point, we triggered these events.
They didn't do this for 47 years.
We triggered these events now.
So it's our responsibility.
It's just asymmetrical warfare, okay?
Yeah, we dropped a JDAM on a fucking school, we double, we dual-striked it.
We double tapped it, it's crazy.
We do not have the moral upper hand here at all, okay?
The only reason is Hezbollah, not a state actor, technically no, because it's a paramilitary
formation.
It has state representation, it's an active party in the Lebanese parliament, however,
its paramilitary operation is technically not a part of the state.
has a standing military, it's fucking toothless, it's ineffective, it's by design ineffective,
but um, but no, Hezbollah's militant wing is not considered a part, like an official
part of the state at all, it's a paramilitary. Um, I think they still have a responsibility
to follow the laws of war, but it's not the most important part of the equation
given the nature of the conflict. I agree, but if your enemy is not doing that, and
you have limitations as far as like how you can fight back,
you're gonna engage in asymmetrical warfare.
It gives you a significant upper hand,
but there are the ones who are fucking violating it
all the time.
When this is the problem with violating the rules
of conflict, right?
Because if sovereign states that are on the opposing side,
also start violating the rules of conflict
because their enemy is not giving up,
We're not giving up, right? We're not letting up. We're not
We're not trying to de-escalate. We're just simply escalating
Then yeah, they will do that too. That's kind of the whole point of why we had these rules set in the first place
Don't you think I
Mean it's a little bit like the game theory, right? It's just
at a certain point
At a certain point our enemies are also going to say all right fuck it like if you're not playing by the rules
We're not gonna play by the rules
This is the second time we've engaged in active perfidy
Second negotiation process that was used as a way to mask a strike from first Israel
But this time a strike both from Israel and the United States of America
What the fuck do you expect in that first strike this time around?
literally decapitated the entire state, totally unheard of, right? And on top of
that, killed 150 plus little girls in a school. And then Israel turned around on
the third day and decided to engage in chemical warfare by blowing up the oil
refineries in Tehran and making oil rain upon 15 million people that live there.
It's unheard of. It's not going to happen. Like at that point, you would be
fool not to do everything in your power to like fight back and defend your sovereignty defend your people
we hit a desalination plant you know what i mean it's it's ridiculous we've been hitting hospitals
not stop Iran hasn't done so you know what i mean
i'll give you an example look at the number of civilian casualties from the iranian
retaliatory strikes in the Gulf States and in Israel as opposed to the civilian casualties in Iran.
You about to get clipped with that? I don't care. Shut the fuck up.
The point I'm making still stands. Are you against the point I'm making instead of
posturing about like a potential clip? Oh no, I'm not. I can't believe it. People are going to
get mad at me. Okay. Think about the civilian casualties of, think about the civilian casualty
percentage in the countries that Iran is bombing currently, as opposed to the civilian casualties
in Iran, right?
America and Israel have a far, far greater percentage of civilian casualties than Iran
does.
So once again, well it might not seem to be the case because it's a scary barbaric foreign
adversary, a scary Muslim country that's doing this, right?
And therefore, they're the ones who are always in the wrong, that's like the overall attitude
that many Americans had.
They are still more restrained than we are.
Yeah, the U.S. Israeli war has killed 2,400 Iranians just two weeks.
This includes 100, 1,000 dirages civilians, but also more than 1,000 soldiers.
Many of whom were conscripts doing mandatory military service.
All of them were killed in an unnecessary war.
Launched while Iran was already at the negotiating table, every life loss is a tragedy.
They're going to clip that people are making fancams aroxia on tiktok I don't think people realize the terror jacketing shit ain't gonna work on this one. Yeah.
Yeah. Terror jacketing still works when you talk about non-state actors, but it's much
more difficult to create a messaging environment where you're like saying that our enemies
are terrorists when the enemy is a competent sovereign state. That's the reason why Israel
gets away with doing unlimited terror and genocide against both the Palestinian Resistance
front but then also against the Lebanese population and the overwhelming attitude here in the
western news is Hezbollah are the bad guys, Hamas and PFLP, Palestinian Islamic jihad
are the bad guys, even though Israel's the party that's doing the genocide, Israel's
the party that is bombing the shit out of densely populated civilian areas in Lebanon,
beaches, where people have evacuated to bombing hospitals in Lebanon, killing healthcare workers.
It's just ridiculous, right? It's totally fucking ridiculous.
Who is the terrorist? That's why I always say whenever people come in here and be like,
oh, dude, you're a terrorism supporter, I say, I don't support America. I don't support
Israel. I don't support America's wars. I don't support Israel's wars. I don't
support terrorism at all.
Burning and they weren't burning. They weren't hit. It was all AI, AI based. Terrible. It's
terrible. And that's their only, that's their only, I think that's the only thing they
do well. They're negotiating. And we always talk with, you know, somebody said, well,
would you talk, why would you even talk to them? I talk to everybody because sometimes
good things come out of it. But I don't know if they're ready yet. They're taking a pounding.
I don't know if they're ready yet. And we don't even know their leaders. Look, all of their
leaders are dead, as far as we know. But they're all dead. We don't know who we're dealing
with. We knocked out the first group and the second group met, 88, met to pick the
leader because the first group was all dead, and the second group got knocked out, they're
all dead.
Then the third group met, I would think they're a little nervous about meeting, I don't know
if they're nervous, maybe they're not, maybe they're crazy, if they're not nervous then
they're crazy.
But we met with the next group, and, but we don't know who their leader is.
We have people wanting to negotiate.
We have no idea who they are.
Yeah, please, Peter.
Thanks, President Trump.
What are your advisors telling you about the Ayatollah's son, the new Supreme Leader?
What are they telling you about?
Well, it's not only them.
It's you people.
I mean, a lot of people are saying that he's badly disfigured.
They're saying that he lost his leg, one leg, and he's been hurt very badly.
the people are saying he's dead. Nobody's saying he's 100% healthy. And he hasn't spoken
because the Ayatollah would sit and he'd spew hate from a form of a throne. Not as nice
as a throne. I like the English throne much better. But it was a fancy chair. But he'd
spew hate from his chair, but you see him a lot, right? This one we haven't seen at
all, so that could be for a lot of different reasons. We don't know Peter of
his dead or not. I will say there's nobody seen him, which is unusual.
Something else, now that you've announced that the U.S. has destroyed all of Iran's
mine-laying ships, why can't the U.S. just immediately reopen the Strait of
Well we could, but it takes two to tango. We have to get people to take their billion
dollar ship and you know, drive it up. When Pepe has his big sugar ships coming around
and they cost a billion dollars and we say, I think it's okay now Pepe, take your ship,
drive it through the straighter form as he may say, let me wait a little while. Because
Because it takes ship owners and these ships are very expensive.
They can cost up to $2 billion.
So they don't want to take a chance that, gee, I think you'll be okay.
They got to know it.
So they don't have to say, you know, we don't know if they even set any minds.
But the thought that they may have is enough to keep people from saying, we don't need
it.
So we are pounding that area, that coast, as you know,
left side, we're pounding it, like really pounding it hard.
And again, they may have no mindset.
We hit every one of their mine drop,
they call it the mine layers, right?
The ships, they're pretty sophisticated ships.
Every one of them is gone, but it only takes one.
So it's a little unfair.
you win a war, but they have no right to be doing what they're doing, but we're hitting
them very hard, and today is a big day where we're pounding a certain area that has very
much to do with the strait, and I think we'll get it going very soon.
In addition, we do have other nations coming in.
You need people to watch and people to see.
We have other nations coming in.
Yes, please.
If the United States is working to secure the straight of our moves for the benefit of other countries like China and our allies aren't yet stepping up to your standard, is the United States getting back to being the world's policeman?
Look, the United States should not be very much involved. They can on a certain basis. They've been doing it for a long time.
But I've always said, I said, if you look back years ago, I said, why aren't we being reimbursed?
You know, these are the richest countries in the world.
Why aren't we being reimbursed for maintaining the Hormone Strait?
And why aren't we being reimbursed for that?
I've said that for years.
You can look, they reported on it yesterday.
I've been saying a lot of things about the Strait.
one I said it's the one advantage they have but that's a suicidal advantage
because they kill themselves more than they kill the rest of the world and
there are things you can do with time there are other things you can do but I
think that I think we're gonna have the situation straightened out pretty
quickly and I think we're gonna have some good help and I think we're gonna
be disappointed in some nations too and I'll let you know who those
nations are. One of your advisors David Sacks said the other week that
the U.S. should quote declare victory and get out of the Iran war. He also warned that
if the conflict escalates, Israel may contemplate the use of a nuclear weapon. Has he shared
that assessment with you?
Oh, yes. Israel wouldn't do that. Israel would never do that. And, uh, yeah, there's
no, there's a theory. You pounded them to hell.
Not my Israel.
Well, and you could just leave now and it'll take 10 years for them to build
back not nearly what they have right now.
Not my Israel, but we want to have it ended so that another president doesn't have.
Look, for Ford-
Is Trump live right now, Chad?
APEC's not a foreign lobby, but it's not really foreign.
APEC's an American group funded and run by Americans who think Israeli and U.S. interests
are largely the same.
I don't think casting APEC's foreign helps any moral or strategic way.
APEC absolutely is a foreign lobby. APEC also coordinates with the state of Israel and increasingly with just one of its political factions
Here's one ex apex official talking about how the lobby how the
The lobby more and more aligned with Likud and official former apex ever charging
It worked with many against Oslo. I agree. This makes things complicated though coordinating with one political faction versus another
Doesn't prove apex an agent of Israel since if it is they would align with the interests of whatever faction controls the government during Oslo
That would have been labor
APAC absolutely should be considered a foreign lobby because it is entirely for foreign interest.
There's nothing that comes close to this, okay? Every single other diaspora, if we are to
consider diaspora, if we are to consider American Jews diaspora, which I don't, right?
But that's the major distinction.
It's the double standard here.
American Jews are not diaspora populations.
They're Americans, right?
They're American citizens, and they are technically funding the interest of APAC, funding APAC
as American citizens do.
There's no other advocacy group that comes near the level of prominence and the level
of control that APAC has over the American Congress that is invested entirely and openly
in the interests of a foreign nation state. Okay? Nothing comes close. And yet they do
not get fair restrictions at all. This is the reason why people will say, don't call
it a foreign lobby, even though it very clearly is a foreign lobby. Because it's invested
in Israel. Why wouldn't you consider them diaspora? I don't like the notion of saying
that American Jews are diaspora. I don't think it's appropriate. I don't think it's true.
Because they're American, they're American citizens. They've been around in the United
States. Many of them have lived here for longer than the nation-state of Israel has
ever existed, right? Like they're not coming from another country into the
United States of America. Some might, some might be like dual citizens who are
Israeli, right? But the overwhelming majority of American Jews are multiple
generation American. They're American Jews. They didn't come here from Israel.
They were here before Israel even fucking existed, or they came here from
places like Poland. They came here from Eastern Europe for the most part, right?
They didn't come here from Israel.
Yeah, like Felix. Think about like Felix Biedermann, right? His, I think, great
grandparents were, like, one of them was like a pianist in the fucking
czarist army or something, right? And then they came to America. They came to America
from Russia, right? Is he a diaspora Jew that is technically Israeli? Like no, of course
not. It's fucking ridiculous. The problem, of course, is that Israel and many Zionists
uses designation and it's one that I as an outsider as a, as you know, a non Jewish person,
I can't make that argument anyway. No, I mean, even if it's correct, it doesn't matter.
Like most of us will say, the fuck are you talking about? No, we are diaspora. We are
diaspora to Israel.
Huh anyway
He's live talking about fraud
He's washed we have to be respected
and they'll take some questions, but let me sign this question before I decide not to, okay?
I don't forget not to, but maybe I'll decide not to. I wouldn't decide not to. If I didn't
think they could do the job, I would decide not to, but that'll be a terrible thing.
I think they're going to find numbers. Andrew, I think you're going to find numbers
that are far higher than you even think.
And you know, Andrew came to us.
He said, sir, he's written stories about Minnesota.
We know California is many times worse,
but Minnesota is terrible.
They're all terrible.
Those cities are terrible.
New York is terrible.
What's going on in Chicago?
Illinois with that slavable governor is terrible.
And the kind of money we're talking about is just
country changing.
It's a country-changing one.
It's having a deficit to having a really profitable country
where you can load your taxes substantially for people.
And I think that's, I think you have an opportunity to do it.
And I think you two guys are the right guys.
If you guys can't do it, you've got a problem.
There's nobody else who'll be able to do it.
And?
Yes, sir.
So I'll sign.
And then, we'll take some nice questions
from our wonderful media.
Okay.
There you go.
Very important.
That's a big deal.
We've been working on this very long, right?
See it, right?
Will?
Good, sir.
Can I have a question?
Yes, Mr. President.
Mr. President, you said during your State of the Union
that this type of fraud, the corruption,
is the type of thing that can shred the fabric of a nation.
Why do you suppose that leaders of recent memory
haven't looked at a systemic amount of fraud
that's taking place?
And how do you-
Because they're crooked.
They make money.
They gain power.
They use it for power.
Like with the Somalians, they vote in a block, 100%.
They make a deal with the Somalians.
They all vote because they're on a gravy train.
It's coming in.
It's money first, power second.
A lot of people say power first.
No, it's money first, power second.
Do you ever see where, like, Mercedes,
people come up, it's from somebody that have no money
and now they're buying Mercedes Benz cars, okay?
It's more cash goes out of the Minnesota airport
than any other place in the world or something.
We're going to find it.
And Minnesota is really bad.
The governor is corrupt.
The attorney general is totally corrupt.
Just like the New York State Attorney General,
Leticia James, she's a highly corrupt person.
Bragg, the DA is a corrupt person.
They're all corrupt.
These are corrupt people.
And we got too many of them in our country.
And we have to expose them, and we have to catch them.
And if these two guys can't, these are high IQ people.
I've always liked high IQ.
These are high IQ people.
If they don't do it, we're going to go a long way, fellas,
to find somebody else that's going to.
We have no choice.
Honestly, and they may not do a good job.
If they don't do a good job, it's possible.
If they don't do a good job.
Oh, JD Van Spotted.
Country sort of.
Wow, he's alive.
I thought he was in the cook cave,
Considering that Trump is waging an unholy and very unpopular war,
and I thought J.D. Vance the Cuck would be hiding.
The last step to system foreign evangelism,
are you completely on board with the current war on Iran?
So I like frauds are.
I certainly what we're going to do.
And what we have to do is, as the president said,
this is a problem and a stressor in this country
for far too long.
And far too few people have actually
wanted to do anything about it.
That's what makes this administration different,
is that we actually tackle the problems
the American people have been confronting.
So I'm very happy about it.
And look, I think that I know what you're trying to do, Phil,
you're trying to drive a wedge between members
of the administration, between me and the president.
What the president said consistently, going back to 2015,
and I agreed with him, is that Iran
should not have a nuclear weapon.
We have taken this military action
under the president's leadership.
I think all of us, whether you're a Democrat or a Republican,
should pray for success and pray
for the safety of our troops.
That's the approach that I've taken.
Make it as successful as possible.
So there's no hesitation given your past statements
with the current operation?
What do you mean there's no hesitation
with my past statements?
Given your expectations of a foreign country
as in you were a critical war on chair previously?
Well, I think one big difference, Phil,
is that we have a smart president who was in the past
and passed down to the president.
Oh, this is awesome.
I love this argument.
No, you see, Trump is known for being smart.
are repeated, absolutely.
So, JD's been great, but here's the simple thing.
And I have some people, I don't want wars.
I want wars less than almost anybody.
Peace with strength.
But you know what?
I've watched Iran for a long time.
I called them out 20 years ago when I was a civilian
that liked watching the world.
And violent, vicious people, the leadership,
violent, vicious people, they killed 32,000 protesters
over the last three weeks, they put out a memo
two days ago saying, if you protest,
we will shoot you and kill you in the streets.
And somebody said, oh, there's not that many protests.
Well, first of all, there are bombs going off
all over the place.
But even if they weren't, who's going to do that?
You know, who's going to do that?
They don't have any guns.
And the other ones have the latest in line machine gun,
right?
And every form of gun you can have,
they shoot them right through the middle of the head.
They're violent people.
If they had a nuclear weapon, they would use it.
And sometimes I'll have some of the people that, you know,
feel very strongly like I do about wars.
And I say, do you think Iran is violent?
And do you think the people are violent?
Yes, leadership.
Do you think they should have a nuclear weapon, which
is massive power?
I don't even want to discuss how powerful it is.
Oh, it's so powerful, so powerful.
And they said, no, they shouldn't have.
Definitely they shouldn't have.
They said, and you don't want to fight war.
No, no, we don't want to fight war.
So these are naive people that frankly are stupid.
If you believe that a ranch should have a nuclear weapon
is something wrong with you, because they would use it
within, the only question is, within one hour
if they get it or one day, they would use it.
And they will blow up the entire Middle East,
not just Israel.
They'll start with Israel, but they will blow up.
And you've got to see that when they unexpectedly
started sending missiles to every country
within a thousand miles of them.
I mean, they're blowing up countries that were neighbors,
not necessarily some friends.
They actually have blown up some friends.
They were blowing up the people that handle their accounts.
They're sending thousands of missiles into countries
that didn't expect to be in the war,
because they wanted to take over the Middle East.
And if I didn't terminate Barack Hussein Obama's
horrible Iran nuclear deal, which I did in my first time,
one of the dumbest deals, perhaps the dumbest deal
because of the danger involved,
you would have had them have a nuclear weapon
three years ago, maybe four years ago.
They would have used it, blown up the Middle East,
and they would have then come after us.
And if these gorgeous B-2 bombers give me that bomber,
Let me just hug that little sucker.
You have a bomber over there.
I think you knew immediately which one.
This looks small, but in person it's very big.
It's the only plane capable of carrying a 200,000-pound bomb.
So I don't know how to do it.
Because it's very sleek and nice, but it carries a lot of weapons.
And there's a lot of bombs.
And had I not sent this incredible machine times
numerous others to hit Iran at midnight with no moon,
dead dark, every single bomb we dropped right down the
chute that it was supposed to hit.
How they do it?
Who knows?
Nobody else can figure it.
No other country can do it.
No other country has our military or even cluffs.
And I think we've probably proven that with Venezuela
and now with, because we have done a number around.
But if I didn't do that, if I didn't decimate,
I call it their nuclear dust,
they would have had a nuclear weapon
within one month after that bombing took place.
And they would have used it on 1st Israel
and then the Middle East.
And you know that because all of those missiles
that were launched against their neighbors
were set long ago.
long before they knew they would be using them this quickly.
Had we not done this, you would have had a nuclear war
that would have evolved into World War III,
and more important, this is a war that
there would have been nothing left.
So we've done a great thing.
The people that say it's okay for a very sick ideology,
a very sick country in terms of its laser,
very good people, great people.
But the people that say that, I think they're actually,
they're either evil or they're stupid.
So if you believe that Iran should not
have a nuclear weapon, they should not have it,
then you have to absolutely love what I've done.
Because in two weeks, we have decimated them.
They have no Navy.
They have no Air Force.
They have no anti-aircraft weapons.
So good, man.
Thank you.
They have no leadership.
The leadership is gone.
But then they set up a new leadership to go
and name a new leader, and that leadership is gone.
And now they think maybe the sun is gone.
They're all gone.
My biggest problem is I have no idea who we're talking to
because nobody ever heard of any of these people.
They're all dead.
But we did a job for the world,
not a job for us, for the whole world.
We took the worst country in 50 years
that may be longer from the ideological standpoint,
a country that wanted to blow up the world,
a country that is sick, sick.
And it has a religious fervor.
And when you had religion, you know,
people don't realize more people died in religious wars
than every other war put together.
And that's what you would have had here.
And it was a terrible thing.
I'm very proud of what we did.
And I think JD understands better than most
If you give Iran a nuclear weapon, at least a very substantial part of the world would
be blown up, and it will be used almost immediately.
Yes.
You don't mind if I keep this here, do you?
Isn't that a beautiful thing?
I used to look at it, and I said, it's a piece of work, but how can it be effective?
It's so stealth.
Think of it.
Peter, one in the morning, it flies in, and they say, sir, they're in Iranian
airspace and I said, oh, and I'm watching it from the situation room with a couple of other very
smart, including some good generals, real generals, not television generals. And all of a sudden you
see that dive, they start diving and you see them 30,000, 20,000, well I said that was a lot,
They went down fast to aim it.
And they know they're coming, and they're smart,
and they never saw them.
And they're firing a little bit, but they don't know
what they're firing at because they can't see a thing.
And then you hear the biggest explosions
that anybody's ever heard.
Those are the biggest bombs.
Outside of nuclear, those are the biggest bombs.
And you say, what technology we have.
What a great country.
I built it largely.
I built it during my first term.
I built it.
I didn't know I'd have to use it this much in my second term.
But we had an incompetent president.
We had an incompetent administration.
And if that group of people, in any form,
whether it's Kamala, him, it doesn't matter,
would have had another four years,
we would have no country left.
Yep.
Thank you, Mr. President.
You say you're doing a job for the rest of the world.
And your conversations with the counterparts,
I mean, thanking you, what are their conversations
like when you talk about this military conflict that's taking place in Europe?
Well they should be thanking me because many of them get 90% China as an
example should be thanking us but I don't expect to thank you but they're
getting their oil dumbass why would they have to thank you?
95% China 91% many of the business in South Korea doesn't...
Again it's just cope it's just fucking cope there's no other way to read this other than cope okay?
The Straits and the Straits.
You have no, you are responsible for the closing of the straight.
You are not responsible for opening it.
It hasn't been opened yet.
Well, it's open for China.
It's just not open for everybody else.
It really were right up front.
I would announce a name now other than, you know, maybe they prefer it not being
announced for whatever reason.
I will say this, it's a lot easier to get people today than it was two weeks ago.
Two weeks ago, before we destroyed them, before you obliterated the country, before we took
out, because they're down to about 8 percent of their missiles.
They're down to a small portion of their drones.
And we've demolished many of their factories where they make the missiles and the drones
and the rest are all following.
Our military has been amazing.
We hit Cogg Island, took out every single thing in Cogg Island, except one thing.
We left the pipes, because if we take out the pipe, it takes a long time to build them.
At some point, something is going to happen that's positive with respect to those pipes.
But there are some countries that greatly disappointed me.
And you know, I'm the one that got them to pay from 2 percent to 5 percent of GDP
NATO. And I get along great with those countries in NATO, but I always said, you know, the problem
with NATO is we'll always be there for them, but they'll never be there for us. And when I hear
the UK, which was sort of considered the Rolls-Royce of Allies, right, when you say they were the
oldest and they were going to be there. And I say it would be really helpful if you'd send
over a couple of ships. And if you have some minesweepers, which they do, it would be
You're very helpful.
And the Prime Minister is a nice man.
I think he's a very nice guy.
He says, well, I'd like to ask my team.
I said, you don't have to worry about a team.
You don't have a team.
You're the Prime Minister.
You can make a decision.
Well, I have to speak to my people.
I said, you don't have to speak to anybody.
So it was very disappointing.
And then, after we obliterated them
and destroyed their military, the whole thing,
and it became a much safer zone,
He said, we're going to send over two aircraft carriers.
I said, I don't want them anymore.
I don't want them after we win.
I want them before we start.
I don't need your aircraft carriers
after we've already won.
So those things are very disappointing.
And you have to remember, we have 45,000 troops in Japan.
We have 45,000 troops in South Korea.
We have 45,000, 50,000 troops in Germany.
We defend all these countries.
And then, do you have any mind-sweepers?
And they say, well, would it be possible for us not
to get involved?
I've been standing for a long time.
This is the greatest thing to come out of this.
We spend trillions and trillions of dollars on NATO
to defend other countries.
And I always said, but if it ever comes time to defend us,
then I'm going to be there.
Many of them would not be there.
And we're going to have to start thinking more wisely
in this country. Some have been very good. One or two have been great. I'll tell you the
great ones are at the right time. But there have been some that were right up there, Peter.
They were right up there. They wanted to do it so much. Go ahead, Peter.
Thank you. You were talking about Iran a couple of times today and what they did after Epic
Fury began. You said they hit Cutter, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait. Nobody expected
that. We were shocked. Are you surprised that nobody briefed you at any time that
that might be their retaliation.
Nobody, nobody, no, no, no, no, the greatest experts,
nobody thought they were gonna hit.
They were, I wouldn't say friendly countries,
they were like neutral, they lived with them for years.
Peter, they were gonna take over the Middle East.
They were gonna knock out Israel with their nuclear weapon.
But after we knocked out their nuclear potential,
their nuclear potential weapon,
they started building missiles,
thousands and thousands of missiles.
And they were gonna do it with
missiles while they developed.
These are sick people.
While they developed nuclear, somehow they were going to
start on a different site because that site was, you saw
the site, the mountain.
They were going to go into a certain area, which we know
exactly where it is.
It doesn't matter if you know where it is.
You can't reach it.
It's incredible what we've done.
I tell you what we've done.
If I didn't terminate Barack Hussein Obama's
Iran nuclear deal, you would right now, well,
Israel would be gone, it would be incinerated, and probably the Middle East like wise.
And remember, they got all of those missiles, and I heard them sending missiles to UAE.
Don't you be saying that now, Trump.
Trump, don't say that.
That's strange.
You know, UAE is like the banker.
The American environment for that kind of sentiment, bro.
It's like the banker.
Qatar, the neighbors, they got along okay.
So the Arabian.
All of a sudden Kuwait.
The way he's getting hit, Bahrain is getting hit, all these countries are getting hit.
There was no answer to say that.
It's so confusing.
I wonder why they're getting hit.
Like, gee, should you have known?
And if we did know, big deal, I mean, we have to do what we have to do.
But we hit them so hard, like nobody's ever been hit.
We hit them very hard, and we've extinguished most of their missiles.
We've extinguished most of their drones.
We've extinguished most of the places where the missiles and the drones are built.
We've fully extinguished two layers of leadership and probably a third, if you believe some story.
So we only have one thing to have a little choke point, and they've used it very well
for years, but it doesn't work.
But I think this, if some of these countries that we've been good to for years, and
Maybe more important than that.
Some of these countries, they get 90 percent
and 95 percent of their energy from Hormuz.
It's straight.
Hormuz, a famous, wonderful, beautiful place.
But you wouldn't want to be necessarily
sailing about there right now.
Okay? And you know why?
Not because of them, because of us.
Because we've taken out their entire Navy.
We've taken out every one of their drone.
They call it a drone layer, a mine layer.
There's specific boats that are meant to put mines on.
How would you like to have a nation that has 22 boats
where their sole function, the very different looking boats,
you wouldn't want one for your family.
They're not pretty.
Their sole function is to lift a mine into the water
and drop it a certain number of feet down.
But they had 22 of them.
We've taken out all of them.
But you can probably drop them off on the bus.
We don't even know.
By the way, we don't know that any mines have even been dropped.
But the thought that they would scares people
that have billion dollar ships.
Please.
Thank you, President Trump.
I'd like to ask the best president out of the screen
to fill out your possible fraud in the California and the
U.S.
of course, about this.
And President Trump first could ask you,
you said earlier today, that the new screen
leader of the top, maybe, you know,
he's asking him if he's gay.
He reports about him today, just one report
that he just sneered and he skipped that
in the first year.
By the way, Trump says,
Trump says that, you know, they're begging for a deal.
Iranian officials on the other hand,
drop side reports, have been saying the exact opposite.
New at drop side news, Iranian officials say
they have been ignoring Wiccob's private requests
to talk.
Trump's official envoy has been texting Iran's foreign
minister asking to start talks Tehran says the war will end only when Iran
believes it has established long-term deterrence to Iran in a visual told
drop site that Trump's official envoy Steve Wukoff personally sent messages to
officials in Tehran including Foreign Minister Abbas Arakshi last week
exploring possibilities for resuming negotiations Iran is not replied to
Wittkopf the Iran official told drop site news that Iran also received
messages from the White House via third countries because of decisions made
by Iran's top authorities no response was sent to his messages of senior
Iranian official told Dropsite. The message here is clear. Iran has once again closed the
window for any direct negotiations the senior Iranian official added. The authority declares
ceasefire arrest solely with the country's supreme leader. It is not something that
the foreign minister or any other country, any other official organization in Iran would
send messages about to a foreign party. In response to a request for comment, a white
owl spokesperson sent to Dropsite the following. The radical left wing Dropsite news is
clearly carrying water for the Iranian terrorist regime.
And reports like these based on pure fiction and signing unnamed anonymous sources should
be discarded immediately.
Iran feeds this fake news.
Iran feeds this fake news media outlet propaganda and they publish it as fact, which is abhorrent.
America last behavior operation epic fortnight chuggas will continue unabated until president
Trump as commander-in-chief determines the goals of operation, determines the goals of
the goals of Operation Epic Fortnite is including for Iran or no, including for Iran no longer
posing military threat have been fully realized.
So I guess it's not a W then.
I guess even in this like idiotic fucking statement, they're so mad by the way.
And this is a threat for the record.
Just understand this is a fucking threat.
And Muhammad Ali Shabani also is saying the same thing that Dropside is saying.
I'm usually told by a reliable senior source dinner.
I'm told by usually reliable senior sources in Tehran that this is categorically false.
One source even hinted at the Trump team supposedly making things up to manipulate energy markets.
As always, time will tell what's really going on.
Of course, this came from Baraka Unit 8200 Ravid, okay?
communications channel between Iran and four minutes or about a bus or actually in US on voice the wake up has been
Reactivated in recent days. Yeah, that means Steve wick hop is texting a bus being like bro. Come on
Throw us a fucking bone here, please and they're like no
You will know like this is not a thing that you can lie about you want to know why it's not a thing you can lie about one
You can't really lie about it because Abbasid Akshi is just going on, you know, mainstream news and
openly saying that it's wrong. That's number one. And number two, the Strait of Hormuz is still
fucking closed. Remember, reminded never trust Barak Ravid or an Axios report. Yeah.
Barak Ravid is a misinformation agent, okay? It's still valuable. His reports are still valuable,
just not in the way that you think they are. You're not supposed to read exactly what he's saying
and think this is good, you know, honest truth. You're supposed to read what he's saying to
understand what the connective tissue between America and Israel, like what they want you
to hear. If you want to understand what the Israeli position is, Barak Ravid is actually
a fantastic reporter because his goal here is propaganda for both Israel and also the
United States of America. That's the only, that is the reliable newsworthy aspect of
Barak Ravid's reporting. So it's still reliable. It's still good. It's still
newsworthy in and of itself. It's just you can't read it at face value and
think, oh, this is going to happen. I place a much higher, I place a much
higher emphasis on what the dropside reporting looks like, especially as it pertains to the
Iranian position. What is the Unit 82 referencing? Unit 8200 is like the IDF unit for PSI ops
and, you know, internet operations, shit like that. I'm just like jokingly referencing
it. Unit 8200 is the unit that spends all their fucking bandwidth on my replies on
Twitter. I think it's a very small price to pay. And frankly, I thought it was going to go down much
more. Oh, I assumed that it was going to go down much more. Some of you are going to understand.
At a very high level. It's a very high level chest. I'm dealing with very smart players.
These are smart people. They don't get there. You know, when you deal with some of these people,
you're dealing with high...
Yeah, barography, I think he was in...
Intellect, high...
Very high-class people.
That's the Ashley Crockett and her group.
These are smart people. These are really smart people.
And violent people, ambitious people, and some very nice people.
And some are very nice, but violent.
They turn violent.
But you know what, if I didn't do...
If I didn't do what I did,
we would have been hit.
Number one, very important, was the termination of Obama's horrible deal, and number two, this
beautiful plane hitting them eight months ago, whatever it was, and taking out their nuclear
campaign.
That totally threw them for a look.
If they had that bomb at either time, five years ago or seven months ago, if they had
that bomb, that bomb would have been used almost immediately.
The Press.
Two questions on domestic policy and bringing him close to home.
First of all, the State of America Act, what are you expecting this week when this vote
takes place in the U.S. Senate, where the Vice President is voting?
It is imperative that it gets done.
I'm not sure it is.
The Democrats have horrible policy.
It's just incredible.
But they stick together.
It's the one thing they do.
Their Supreme Court members stick together.
Those appointed by a Democrat stick together.
If Barack Hussein Obama appoints a member of the
Supreme Court, that member never goes against him.
And they're proud about it.
They say, I don't give a damn if it's good or bad.
That man appointed me and I'm never going to let him down.
I don't say that's right.
Well, I just say they stick together.
Republicans go the opposite way.
If Donald Trump appointed me, I'm going to show the world
that I can be totally just, that I can be independent
of Donald Trump.
He's not controlling me.
And I don't want to control them.
I just want to have smart decisions.
They gave us a decision on tariffs the other day
that won't change tariffs.
I can do it a different way.
I was doing it.
I could do it a different way.
This was a little quicker, a little easier, a little better.
But they gave it a decision that could cost this country $500 billion to pay people back,
because now we have to start the tariffs all over, get very simple.
And what happens with the money I've already collected?
Why didn't they say, starting from now, go the other way?
$500 billion, perhaps.
It's so sad.
But one thing about the Democrats, they stick together like glue.
They impeached me twice for absolutely no reason, unanimously.
Fortunately, the Republicans stuck together and it was pretty wild.
But the Democrats have horrible policy transgender-
They're so brave saving the trade of horrors.
Men playing in women's sports.
That's my privateer, dude.
But the one thing they do have is a real pirate, it's embarrassing to watch them try to defend it.
Do you think people are going to believe what he's saying? Yes, there are a fuck ton of morons out
there who literally listen to every single thing that he's saying and agree with it and think
it's the God's honest truth, even if it contradicts itself in the same exact moment, you know?
Right. That's a 99% issue. Even among Democrats, you know, Democrats pull at 89% on that.
And then they have proof of citizenship.
And then they have no mail-in ballots.
No mail-in ballots.
We have no mail-in.
You go to California, they send out like 38 million ballots.
Some Democrats get seven, eight ballots.
Republicans are a lot of times calling in,
where's my ballot?
Where's my ballot?
They're lucky to get one.
Jimmy Carter, probably the greatest thing he ever did.
There is a nice man, not a great president, to put it mildly.
Had his attack work out in Iran, not too good.
I think ours is slightly better, wouldn't you say?
But Jimmy Carter, the one thing he did after he left
with Scoop Jackson and some others,
they formed a very elite council,
a committee that came out and said very strongly,
no mail-in balance, because if you haven't...
We're the only country in the world
that has mail-in balance like we do.
The only country in the whole world,
People have tried it, France tried it, and they went away.
They're now doing paper ballots, watermark paper,
which is very hard to cheat.
So, when you look at what happens with this country,
we really have to fix it.
That'll be very popular.
The other thing we put in there just as best of,
I call it the best of Trump,
we have the three things I just said, right?
But then I added on no men playing in women's sports,
And I added in no transgender surgery,
the mutilation of our children.
We have no mutilation of our children, no transgender.
I think they're, they say that's an 80% issue.
I think they're 99% issues,
but whether they're 80% or 99%.
The problem is we have a couple of Republicans
that they shouldn't be allowed.
They're horrible people,
And they're willing to vote against anything.
And we have all the Democrats who vote against it.
So I think it hurts the Democrats to vote against it
because I'm going to suck to all the Republicans
to say that so-and-so that they're
running against, voted against, the saving of our children
from transgender mutilation, right?
That's pretty unpopular.
They want men and women sports.
That's pretty unpopular.
They want voter ID, but the Democrats don't.
Everybody wants voter ID.
Everybody wants proof of citizenship.
And most people don't want mail-in voting because they know it's a fraud.
Touches too many hands.
I mean, if the postman gets it, this one gets it, that one.
So these are all issues that are in the 90s to 100.
I would say some are virtually 100 percent.
And the interesting thing is that that way, not only with the Republic, I'm not
talking about leadership I'm talking about that way also most importantly with the
people the people of our country want voter ID the people of our country what
I think like tossing the fucking transgender provision into smart is so
stupid and it totally gives the game away where he thinks the only place
where he has motion is the trans stuff which he doesn't the only reason why
there's any movement on that stuff is because the Democrats have given up
on even mounting a strong response to consistently attacking trans people.
And that's precisely why in the polls, the only area where he's not underwater, even
though his popularity in that area has also diminished, is the trans stuff.
Like, it's totally ridiculous.
It's very clearly, it very clearly serves as a distraction.
And it's, I mean, obviously it's not a distraction for the actual trans people that are
in the crosshairs here, but you know as is the case with everything else like
everything this guy touches turns into dust so I do think we will win on that
front as well.
It's unbelievable dude. For people with learning disabilities but not for my
president. I don't want I think a president should not be learning
Not wanting men and women's sports and trans people. This is the reason why Trump does this by the way for the cattle
Okay, this is precisely the reason why because like there are cattle and
There there's there's definitely cattle in every community that like they hear that and they go. Oh, yeah, that's right
This is perfectly valid trans people are not attacked brother. Which reality do you live in? Okay?
But we want to basically register trans people and make it illegal for them to get any sort of medical aid
And you're over here talking about like, oh, it's just about wet men and women's boys. You're fucking idiot
the trans women that
Participate
In in athletic companies has already been written out. You understand that right? There was like 49 NCAA athletes
Trump already banned them
And not only did he ban them
But he also
consistently pressures individual states from from fighting back against it it's
so stupid did that did that impact your gas prices does that make you feel safe
does that make you feel better did it change your life at all yeah meanwhile
in a state of Kansas 1700 trans people had their drivers licenses revoked like
how was that how was that in any way shape or form improving your life you're
fucking idiot you're basically saying mouth a gate I am so stupid that you can
wreck the economy you can destroy my future you can go in and you know send
billions of dollars in aid to Israel and light up tens of billions of dollars
in in taxpayer funded military assets all at the behest of Israel the foreign
country, and as long as you say transgender, that's it. I'm locked in. I'm locked in all
again. What do you think of trans women winning tournaments in women's space? Brother, this
is not fucking 2024 anymore. Okay. This is not 2023. I'm not even entertaining this
fucking conversation. I'm not dignifying you with a fucking idiotic response. It's
not a problem at all to you. And if you're stupid enough to think it is a problem
for you, get the fuck out of my community. Who cares? You're a fucking moron. Can't
even answer a basic question law, really? I am answering it. It's called who cares?
I don't give a shit. And neither do you. You're fucking stupid enough to say openly
as long as you bring this up. I'll be a survival paddle for you.
I also know I was just with a fantastic person whose
Cuban made a fortune in sugar, you know,
Fonjo family, right?
And this family wants to go back to Cuba to visit it.
They haven't been back in like 50 years or something.
They come from, largely come from Cuba.
And we'll see what happens.
They want to ask you about that.
They want to go back, not only Fadul, a lot of
Cubans have said, oh boy, well, they love to go back.
I think Cuba, I know it's in its own way.
If there's tourism and everything else, it's a
beautiful island, great weather.
They're not in a hurricane zone, which is nice for a
change, you know.
They won't be asking us for money for
hurricanes every week.
But I think Cuba is the end.
You know, all my life I've been hearing about the
United States in Cuba.
When will the United States do it?
I do believe I'll be the honor of having the honor of taking Cuba, that's a big honor.
Taking Cuba.
Taking Cuba, in some form, yeah, taking Cuba, I mean, whether I free it, take it, I could
do anything I want with it, if you want to know the truth, they're a very weakened
nation, they were for a long time, very violent leaders.
What?
violent leaders brothers are very violent leader extremely violent that's
literally starving this fucking island is saying a lot of people would like to
go back okay one more question
Mr. Vice President you announced a couple weeks ago that the administration
would be halting medicaid pain. What a sick thing to fucking say.
Do you have an update to that specific situation do you think that that could be a
model moving forward and then pass forwards for states that won't cooperate.
So I don't want to update there. Dr. Oz is looking to try to work with the authorities
in Minnesota to try to figure that situation. The audacity of America in the process of starving
the Cuban population right now, 11 million people living on this island no longer have
any energy for the past three months. Their energy grid just collapsed today. The audacity
for the guy responsible for that bloodshed to turn around and be like it's the Cuban
leadership that's violent actually insane the second tool of course we have
that as the president mentioned is we have law enforcement options we know
that some of this fraud is just bad some of its criminal we know this is
fucking fraud conversation yeah CNN breaking news the Cuban energy grid has
completely collapsed is suffered a total collapse this according to the
country's power operators the first nationwide blackout since the U.S.
effectively shut off the flow of oil the Cuba and we're so cruel that it's
on autopilot chat. That's what's so fucked up about the way that America operates. Like
this is not even, this is not even a part of the consideration. Like what we're doing
in Cuba on top of what we're doing in Iran is not even something that people are considering.
I do believe I'll have the honor of taking Cuba, President Trump says. Yeah. Fucking
rapist president, dude. He is literally raping the land. He is raping the people. Like
he is such a god damn rapist
in a way perfect for america i guess
and breaking news into cnn cuba's electrical grid has suffered a complete
and total collapse.
This is according to the country's power operator.
It's the first nationwide blackout
since the US effectively shut off
the flow of oil to Cuba.
David Adler says we're laying siege
to the island of Cuba, turning out the lights in homes,
hospitals and the country's most critical infrastructure.
These are war crimes, lethal, cruel
and criminal acts of collective punishment.
It is sociopathy dressed up as foreign policy.
And it's so crazy, like I said,
I cannot explain to you how cruel this is and how banal it is treated as, how normal it
is.
We are so, we are like, this is a war crime that has been ongoing for the past three months
now, okay?
And what blows my mind, what blows my mind about it is that most Americans are completely
oblivious to it.
They don't even care about it, because at least with the Iran situation, there is a negative
impact that they can actually experience at home.
With the Cuba situation, nothing.
Right?
Cuba has never been a threat to us.
Cuba has never been a threat to anybody else.
Cuba has, as a country, been just an overall moral force.
I normally say countries don't operate on moral boundaries.
Cuba is one country that is unique.
One of the only morally righteous forces on this fucking planet, historically.
It's incredible.
Hard to believe that there is any justice that will ever be served.
How is Cuba morally good?
I don't think, I don't get how a state can have morality, I mean it doesn't, but if
it could, if states could behave as moral actors, Cuba would be one of the only, one
of the only states that you can see as a morally righteous state in its existence since
the Cuban Revolution. This is the replacement for USAID, by the way, that doesn't mean that
the practice of USAID was all good, but I still take that over hard power. No, for sure.
Sending doctors on medical missions all around the world, even to the United States of America
at times.
On behalf of Cubans, know you are wrong, Cuba is not a moral force, Lamau.
Dude, if you do this fucking diasporoid shit in my chat one more fucking time, oh my god.
Every conversation has to, every conversation has to be met with the diasporoid freaks
of every country that we are doing unlimited maximum punishment to
or someone has to come in and be like you don't understand
you don't understand on the cuban on behalf of all cuban shut the fuck up
you don't know how bad it is you don't know how much like the government is
mismanaged everything i know it's that's
the government's fault right
what was the government dressing as what was it got what was the government
wearing when we decided to fucking rape it that's the argument that you're
making
your standpoint epistemology doesn't stand here
i need to make that very clear you cannot utilize standpoint epistemology
to justify american intervention endless senseless cruel american intervention
that is a war crime a crime against humanity collective punishment is a
war crime
america has never stopped collectively punish in the cuban population
Wake the fuck up, we just spent the last three weeks of Iranians living in the Western world
demanding that America and Israel intervene in the affairs of Iran.
And now a lot of those voices have become silent.
The reason why is because some of them at least have the capacity to feel shame.
They feel the shame of agitating.
Know the US is wrong for blocking or on the Cuban regime is a brutal dictatorship.
not shut the fuck up no no it's not no the fuck it's not shut the fuck up oh my god
adolf hitler could be a cruel tyrant that engaged in in some of the worst crimes against humanity in
the in the holocaust but also the ussr wasn't so great either america wasn't so great either
You're fucking insane.
Actually, no, it's literally the worst in that. The argument that you're presenting is even worse than that.
The argument you're presenting is equivalent to saying some of the Jews actually did deserve to get killed in the fucking concentration camps.
That's basically what you're saying when you make this comparison.
Yeah, Adolf Hitler was a ruthless tyrant in a fucking fascist, the highest order that engaged in the mechanized death of six million Jews.
But have you considered some of those Jews were like tax evading like that's literally what you're saying here
It's so ridiculous. Oh my god
What did this guy say Gusanito Gordo
Why did the Miami Cubans vote for Trump doing this to their island the home of Cuba?
Wait, why did you ban this person?
And they're not they're not asking like the bad question
Because there's a lot of people that are are living in the Western world that you straight up are fucking insane
Well, people don't have food. What are you talking about? I have family there right now talking about great Cuba is why the fuck don't they have food I
Hate this dumb shit dude. Yeah, it's it's because the Cuban guy like what do you think is going on?
The Cuban government is like literally going. I hate my own population
I don't want to give them food. Is that what you think is going on?
god damn dude every fucking person that far for the record of course there are
going to be people that are going to falsely present the equation while
they're suffering falsely assume that it's actually the fucking government
itself that's like causing their their demise okay just like there are
Americans who think banning transgender athletes from the NCAA
competitions is going to make their lives better. Okay? Like, think for a moment. Do you think
the Cuban government is deliberately denying food to its own citizens? Do you think that's
what's going on? This and the other conversation that's like always the top of mind is the
antibiotics. Like, as though the Cuban government is like directly refusing to give medical
aid to its own citizens on purpose. Why are they doing it? No one knows. There
There is never any fucking answer to this question, okay?
There's never an answer to this question.
Why do you think that the Cuban government is deliberately starving its own citizens?
Do you think that the Cuban government is deliberately refusing to render medical aid
to its own citizens?
Do you think that that is the case?
How many instances of foreign intervention led by the United States of fucking America
has been so devastating, and it always comes on the heels of arguments such as this one?
Ridiculous.
Yeah, Miami Keepers are reactionary.
No, they have to ration because they can't grow food.
Machineries and tatters. I know and then people people assume that this is not like you know what it's like
yelling at the Cuban government
About the food supply in this current situation is like yelling at the fucking doctor in the emergency room
While they're engaging in triage. It's not the fucking doctors fault, brother. What are you talking about?
about. After a mass shooting incident, you're mad at the doctors for engaging in triage rather
than the fucking mass shooter or rather than the government that allowed the mass shooter
to have access to arsenal, an arsenal of weapons that they can use and deploy on a fucking
civilian population at any given moment. It's ridiculous, yeah. It's always the
same to think, oh Palestine looks the way it does because of Hamas, not because of
Israel and America. Iran looks the way it does right now because of the IRGC, not
because of Israel and America.
Jesus Christ, it's always, it's just so strange. It's always never the fault of
the American government, even when the American government openly admits that
they're doing this. You're talking to me at a moment where the Trump administration is
saying, I'm going to take Cuba. It's going to be mine.
After three months of collapsing the energy grid deliberately, what do you think that
has? What kind of impact does that, does that have on the regular citizens of Cuba?
Yeah. Bombing Iran in the middle of negotiations while starving Cuba, while genociding Palestinians
while threatening to invade Greenland, the US and Israel, the single greatest threat
to humanity is not even close. We're all forced to live in the nightmare they
create there is a better future out there we don't have to do this okay we are
American citizens ask yourself that do I like this is this beneficial for me do I
want this to happen what can I do to change it that's the purpose of this
fucking broadcast that's why I do this every fucking day for eight hours a day
and there are still motherfuckers who come in here and try to do try to do
this standpoint epistemology to be like no you don't understand as a Cuban I
think it's a totally totally fucked up with the American government's doing the
But also they kind of deserve it because the Cuban government was asking for it think
Huh
Why can't it be both why can the government be terrible in the US intervention worse and conditions because it's fucking bullshit
It's absolute bullshit
There are countries that have gone through unimaginable pain and struggle and have been able to completely rid themselves of
American domination and we see what those countries look like now
There are not many of them, but one country that you can give an example of is China
Okay, a lot of these other countries would look like China if America did not consistently destroy them
Okay, that's the problem. And it's certainly not only does this argument not apply to Cuba in general
It's sure it does not apply to Cuba at all. Okay
Vietnam is another one as well for sure, but the reason why I use China is because it's like completely sovereign
Not only does that argument not apply to Cuba at all and every time I ask the questions
two people who come in here with this argument, their answers are ridiculous.
Where it'll be like, well, the government actually arrests dissidents, right?
It's like, yeah, they're under imperial siege. Of course, they fucking have to keep
things stable to the best of their goddamn abilities or it doesn't fucking collapse entirely, okay?
This is, like, it'd be great. It'd be great if that wasn't the fucking case.
But you have to think like, who is responsible for this? Or is there a larger
Domineering force that is 90 miles off of its fucking coastline that literally owns a piece of Cuban territory
That's how much we dominate Cuba that we give them a dollar
To rent out Guantanamo Bay from the Cuban government. They can't say anything about it. Can't do anything about it
people that come in here and say why can't it be both just don't realize that they are
playing a role in crafting state department narratives they're playing a role in crafting
propaganda the fuck do you mean why can't it be both I'll give you another example
already gave you the example of like yelling at a doctor for engaging in
triage and not the mass shooter or the government that allow the conditions for
a mass shooting to take place once again. Another example would be like if
someone came up to you, okay, you were a bully at school. Someone came up to you
and shot you in the fucking head. Well, and then you go, well, you were a bully so
you deserve it. Is that how you would operate in that situation or would you
be horrified by the crime of, you know, getting shot in the fucking head
I'm having your friend get shot the fucking head
Yes
How can you in the process of like we are already we're not done
We're not done with oh well we have to free the people of Iran and and what that freedom looks
like we're not done with that story it's happening right now right that bullshit is happening right
now and there are still people that go yeah but I'm going to do that exact same thing I'm going
to do that exact same thing but this time for Cuba and unlike Iran you can't even say any of
the things as far as like state repression or or undemocratic principles in Cuba, you
can't even fucking say that shit about Cuba. It's ridiculous. Just you guys are just oblivious
to how things operate in Cuba. You hear from your parents or your distant relatives that
live on the island who are suffering, who are probably mad at the Cuban government as
well. Some of them are not going to understandably recognize exactly what is the reason they're
going to blame the government. It happens, okay? But taking that as, uh, taking it as, uh,
as like God's on a shrew without like doing a little bit of digging, trying to comprehend
what has taken place historically in Cuba, why they're in the conditions, why they're
they're facing the conditions they're facing is ridiculous. You're a goddamn adult.
Do you think Bob, for example, the Magadad Bob would be an accurate reflection of how
things are operating in America right now? Do you think the average Maga person, for
example, would be able to give an accurate assessment of how the American government
operating currently, if you can comprehend that American citizens are not a monolith,
why the fuck do you think that your relatives in Cuba would be, would be able to completely
capture the fucking abuse while they're literally experiencing it?
And that is the reflection of like the overwhelming Cuban attitude, okay?
It's ridiculous.
Every time there's like any sort of protest that take place in Cuba, which, you know,
blackouts, there are angry people that decide it's the government's fault and not America
that's fucking starving it. Okay. And then there are tens of thousands of people that
fucking come out and take to the streets in opposition to that every single time in Cuba,
every single time there is a, an anti-government protest that's like super limited. Okay. And
people will say, Oh, it's because the government is repressive. There are tens of thousands
more people that take to the fucking streets. There are very proud and very
resilient people, but you never see that. You never see that in the western news. You
don't hear that from your relatives. So you just think that's not the case. Do we care
about democracy or do we not? People will say, oh, well, the Cuban government's a single
party state. It's just a communist party. Okay. Do you have any idea? Do you have any
idea how the Cuban election system works? They have incredibly localized versions
democracy. Not only that referendums, but even though every single person technically is a part
of the Communist Party, every single person is elected to the power, they have a hyper-localized
system of elections. But you didn't know that. And you never cared. You never entertained it.
You never cared to learn about it. So you just go off on whims.
I just think it doesn't matter. Whatever wrongs you do, the Cuban government is committed. It's not for those reasons the United States wants to dominate Cuba. That's also the other side of the story as well. The Cuban government even acknowledges this stuff.
During the recent protest it was reported that the state newspaper, that the protests were reasonably distressed by the current conditions. Yeah.
The fucking president came out and apologized for it. He's like where it's completely outside of my control
But I totally understand why you guys are frustrated. We want to fix the situation, but America will not let us breathe
It's one of the craziest things because like
But Cuba has literally never ever presented like a significant threat to the United States of America not not even once
So why the fuck
Why the fuck do you look at a situation of just rank cruelty, utterly unjustifiable cruelty,
and seek out imperial narratives that give breathing room to the fucking arguments
as to why there's sanctions to begin with?
It's fucking ridiculous.
The embargo placed upon Cuba since the Cuban Revolution was already unjustifiable.
It was already cruel.
It was cruel from its inception.
It was cruel from the beginning.
And now it is taken a totally new form, a complete siege,
death and destruction that befalls the entirety of the Cuban population.
And there are still people in this chat that try to tell me,
well, my relatives in Cuba hate the government.
Okay, I hate my government too,
But that doesn't mean that I would be on board with every single fucking person in this country starving
Children not being able to get the necessary surgeries in the hospitals because there's no energy in the country
The position that you are taking you said Cuba was never a threat what about the Cuban Missile Crisis hmm, what about the Cuban Missile Crisis?
crisis. Even the Cuban Missile Crisis and the way we talk about it here in the United
States of America is so funny. Because the Cuban Missile Crisis, if we were being objective,
would be called the Turkish Missile Crisis. We placed missile bases right on the ash
cheeks of the USSR during the Cold War, and then the USSR responded by putting nukes
in Cuba. But this was a wonderful thing that the USSR did, because it allowed Cuba to remain
sovereign as long as the USSR and that threat was there. The USSR gave Cuba nuclear sovereignty.
They weren't even Cuba's nukes, ironically enough. They were the USSR's nukes.
Yeah, we were also threatening to invade Cuba before the crisis.
That's the other side of it.
Cuba, since the revolution, has always tried to work with the United States of America,
just like Iran, always tried to work with the West, always tried to work with the
United States of America.
Always, from the inception, we just did not want an ideological, it wasn't even initially
communist, the Cuban revolution wasn't initially a communist revolution either.
Like Fido Castro was not a communist.
If you look at the early analysis from the CIA, they say as much, where they're like,
yeah, this guy is just like, he's progressive, he's a leftist, he's a nationalist, he
wants national emancipation, it makes sense.
Now Che Guevara, that's a different story, but Fido Castro, he's not even like ideologically
a communist at times.
The July 26th forces were sometimes at odds with the way that the Communist Party wanted
to operate.
Yes, Che Guevara is a communist.
Fido Castro initially was not.
But it doesn't matter.
reforms should not be met with the largest imperial superpower destroying your country
trying to destroy your economy trying to strangle your country every step of the fucking way.
It's ridiculous.
Cuba has proved that even the most liberal facing country basically operates like a major
aid org internationally, can be painted as a villain exactly.
Every single liberal interventionist argument falls apart when it comes to Cuba.
You say, oh, well, they're homophobic.
You can't say that about Cuba.
Cuba is literally more woke than the United States of America.
That a constitutional referendum, I believe in 2019 or 2017, if I, I think it was 2019
where the population came out and overwhelmingly voted to enshrine LGBTQ protections in the
fucking constitution by referendum.
I believe 70% of the public voted to enshrine LGBTQ protections.
Okay?
Did you know that?
No, you didn't, because you don't know anything.
And you've never been curious about the country that we fucking dominate.
At best, if you have a little bit of curiosity, you look at a couple of state department
written narratives and you go along with it
cuba's proof that even the most liberal-facing country
that basically operates like a major aid or international can be painted as a
villain you can be a democratic pro-lgbtq country and provide literally
everything humanly possible to your population in terms of education and
housing and still the propaganda sticks for dumbfuck americans
It's it's one of the most perverse one of the most cruel things that we have done
This don't know what liberals know he's saying liberal and air quotes he's saying like the liberal aesthetics right of
Social liberalism right like Cuba has it all Cuba has that tenfold
The U.S. is trying to do what they did to Venezuela with Cuba, yes, but the problem
with the Cuba side of things is that they're willing to open up their markets.
They're willing to privatize.
They're willing to stop the pain, stop the bleeding.
So it's not even like a full blown ideological commitment to communism, okay?
They are.
But the problem for Donald Trump is he doesn't just want that.
He wants a fucking, he wants a trophy.
Iran was willing to liberalize and open up their democracy or open up their market,
sorry, democratize the market as they call it.
Okay?
It doesn't matter.
Iran is a little bit different because Iran is singularly in the hands of Israel.
Whereas with Cuba, you can read the Cuban thing as like the Gusano Miami Cuban lobby
and also, you know, Marco Rubio and his ambitions.
But what I never understood Cuba could be what Vietnam is, also the U.S. having open arms.
Mark is in good religion.
We decided to keep the embargo.
Vietnam is very far away.
Okay?
Vietnam is very, very far away.
And also we invaded and occupied Vietnam for 20 years.
We did untold amounts of war crimes in Vietnam.
Cuba had a successful revolution against the American proxy, the American puppet.
And we never let that go.
Is it the peak of the Cold War too?
pure Cold War boomerism. Trump violated HIPAA, what is this?
Yeah, one man who is very real, it looks like he wasn't going to make it. I don't know,
I won't mention his name, should I? Do other people know his name? Yeah, do you want to
mention it? He'll be proud. Go ahead, tell him the story.
Okay, well, thank you, Mr. President.
Congressman Neil Dunn of Florida had had some real health
challenges, and it was very serious,
and had had a pretty grim diagnosis.
And I mentioned it to the president,
and I said, Congressman Dunn is a real champion
and a patriot because he's still coming to work.
And if others got this diagnosis,
they would be apt to go home and retire.
What was the diagnosis?
It was, I mean, I think it was a terminal diagnosis.
He would be dead by June.
Okay, that wasn't public, but yeah, okay.
That was so funny.
Anyway, let's get back to fucking Iran.
In these seven years, no president was willing to do what I'm doing, and they should have done it a long time ago.
It would have been a lot easier.
There's no president that wanted to do it, and yet every president knew.
I've spoken to a certain president who I like actually, a past president, former president.
And he said, I wish I did it.
I wish I did, but they didn't do it.
I'm doing it.
Yeah.
I can't tell you that.
I don't want to embarrass him.
It would be very bad for his career, even though he's
got no career left.
Mr. President, you mentioned that you're not entirely sure
who you're dealing with, who the leadership is in Iran.
Do you see a viable opposition movement still
in that country following all of the protests that we had
seen before the airstrikes and kind of an opposition movement that could become a viable leader
in Iran?
The biggest problem, and you know, we have brave people in this room, but the biggest
problem that I see is that, you know, they put out a warning, and we have the warning,
we get everything they get.
And it said any protester that goes onto the street will be immediately shot and
killed.
It just –
Yeah.
Cuba could do a – Cuba could do dengue-style reforms, which by the way, I mean, even
that's not good either, right? For America's interest, because like, look, look at China.
Look at what a powerhouse China became. We don't like that. We don't want that,
because the threat of a good promise comes into our backyard with Cuba. At least with China,
it's far away. You can craft an Orientalist framework and say, well, they're Chinese,
they're fucking weird, they're scary, whatever. But Cuba is literally 90 miles off the American
coastline. Can you imagine a China style governance 90 miles off of the American coastline motherfuckers
would be taking the the the car boats from Miami to Cuba if that was the case. Americans
already used to fly to Cuba for health care and the conditions there are dire.
More focus will be swimming to Cuba and shark infested waters to go live there
So my point is and you already are arriving at that conclusion here as well Cuba could do gang style reforms
It seems that this that's the direction they were inevitably going to go to but there's a deep hatred and embarrassment among the defense establishment
Cuba could dare be defined so close to our coastline. It's a Cold War embarrassment that in the desire for South Florida votes
It's not even the desire for South Florida votes because then it doesn't make sense why the Democrats would care
The Democrats would be totally aligned on this stuff, right?
Because the Democrats lost the South Florida votes the South Florida voters are in unimaginably reactionary
Let's say the ones that do care about this shit. They're never gonna vote for the Democrats anyway
The last time they did vote for a Democrat was unironically a Democrat that was opening up Cuba and normalizing relations Cuba
His name is Barack Obama. He's the last Democrat that won the majority of Cuban voters
Yeah, Obama gave people sanctions relief in exchange for opening up their markets and
that was a moment.
That was a moment where there was unironically, there was an unironically room to fucking breathe.
Remember the Cuban journalist that I talked to?
Well, I'll be hanging out with one of them down there that said that like there was
room to develop, room to grow, room for prosperity in Cuba for once. And then Trump came in and
destroyed it. Unfucking believable dude.
This is a little tougher than the American way. This is not quite as tough as nobody
can believe it. So I can't imagine, they don't have guns. And the other ones have
guns, highly sophisticated machine guns and AK-47s and other kinds of guns. And they did
that with the women. So the women had 250,000, even 500 people protesting a year ago. And
they shot women right through the middle of the far head with snipers. And they didn't
have to do many. About 10 went down bleeding profusely, and 250 to 500,000 women went running
in the other direction. Because they can be brave, but they're not stupid. And they have
no gun. And you have snipers in buildings specifically for this reason. So a woman
goes down, falling, bleeding from the head. And it doesn't take long for that to spread.
And when that spreads, that crowd dispenses. And nobody else has been able to do that
to the extent that these people, these people are violent. They killed a minimum two weeks
ago, 32,000 people. So, and they put out actually a notice two days ago, if you protest,
you protest, you will be shot and killed. So, I don't know. I would say Mike Johnson's
the only person I know is the courage to go out in that kind of an atmosphere. I don't
think so. I don't think so. Yeah.
Have your advisors told you anything in terms of how long we can expect gas prices as
high as they are right now?
I don't need advisers to tell me that.
I know what it is.
You know, the prime minister of UK,
United Kingdom yesterday, told me,
I'm meeting with my team to make a determination.
I said, you don't need to meet it with the team.
You're the prime minister.
You can make your own.
Why do you have to meet with your team
to find out whether or not you're gonna send
some mind sweepers to us or to send some boats?
I said, you don't have to meet with your team.
It's the same thing here.
I can tell you that when this is over, oil prices are going to go down very, very rapidly.
So is inflation, so is everything else.
But frankly, much more important than short-term, even long-term oil prices, you can't let
the most violent, vicious country in the last 50 years have a nuclear weapon.
Because the Middle East will be gone, Israel will go first without question, and they'll
certainly take a shot at us before we get our act together and say we've got to take
them out.
You can't let Iran, who's truly a nation of great terror and power, look what happened.
In the last two weeks, they weren't supposed to go after all these other countries in
the Middle East.
missiles were set to go after them. So they hit Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait.
Nobody expected that. We were shocked. And the other way.
Yeah, not allowed. Not allowed. We have our bases there. You can't hit them. Why are
you hitting them? This doesn't make any sense. This should not be allowed.
But, you know, they fought back.
They could have yielded.
But think of it, if we weren't around, they are tremendous, they are tremendous, they are
thousands of missiles, most of which we've terminated.
They are thousands of drones.
They were making drones and missiles all over the place.
We've knocked out most of those factories.
I mean, now they're sending out two or three missiles.
Now, you know, they've still got some.
They might have 8% left.
But mostly they've been eliminated.
They've been terminated by what we did and what Israel did, too.
Yeah, please.
Israel is expected to expand its ground offensive in southern Lebanon to go after Hezbollah.
Have you discussed that with Israeli leaders?
Yeah.
And does the United States support a potential Israeli invasion of Lebanon?
Yeah, no, I didn't, and I know the – look, Hezbollah is a problem.
It's been a problem for a long time, not just now.
It's a certain area because I was with the other night a person whose parents live in Lebanon
This is a very substantial person wealthy person whose parents live in Lebanon
I said really how do you live in Lebanon your parents are living? Oh, yeah, they live there and
Over the years they've gotten used to the fact that is being bombed
But they explained to me that it's really a different section of Lebanon. It's a section where he's belies and
And they get used to it, I guess. I don't know. I mean people live in Ukraine.
You would think they wouldn't live in Ukraine, but they live in Ukraine.
I don't know that I'd do that, but they live in Ukraine, they live in Lebanon.
Hezbollah is a big problem, and they're rapidly being eliminated.
Thank you very much, everybody. Appreciate it.
Hello, everybody.
So we have, uh...
This is why, this is also part of the reason why I say, like,
it's okay if we take it on the chin a little bit with our, with our endless military incursions, right?
It's not great, but military deterrence of any sort that actually, uh, that actually deters the beast that is American Empire,
objectively for the greater good. Objectively. It's for the greater good for Americans, because
hopefully we can chart a new trajectory, one that is more beneficial for the American working
class for ordinary Americans.
Is any kind of restraint, whether by force or by Democratic mandate, would give other
countries in the periphery room to breathe room to develop but it would
certainly be good for the American population as well so we get focused on
ourselves focus on developing this country okay building our roads building
our hospitals building our educational system back up building robust public
infrastructure projects public transit
It's unbearable the way we operate.
American politicians' hatred for Iran is uniquely infuriating.
We give Iraq weapons, including chemical weapons, that they use to commit war crimes against Iran and the Iran-Iraq war.
Hundreds of thousands of died due to our weaponry.
Then we invaded Iraq years later in 1991 and again in 2003, leaving a power vacuum for ISIS to form.
The entire thing is so Machiavellian and just evil. Yeah.
And there was one party that benefited tremendously from it.
That party, of course, was Israel. Israel benefited tremendously from this as well.
Our defense contractors benefited from this. Our
Petro-Petro capital has benefited tremendously from this. Our developers went over there and did
developmentary projects, so they benefited tremendously from this. None of you benefited from it though.
You never- you got nothing in return for this.
It's
unfuckin believable.
We just kill, kill, kill, we rape the land, we rape the population, we pillage, we steal,
and you don't even see any of that Imperial bounty and you think in your mind that this
is good.
Why is it good?
Maybe because those guys hate us, right?
Maybe they're scary.
You're told that your enemy is someone to fear, that you're told that these people
your enemies. Americans are some of the most propagandized people on this fucking
planet dude. The idea that we are the world police. The idea that this is for
a greater good. The idea that there's a necessary amount of violence that we have
to dish out in order to keep things fucking stable. As though some random
goat herder in the mountains of Afghanistan was going to be a ever
present danger to your First Amendment rights. We know who the real
threat to our first amendment rights is is this fucking baboon right here
very strong results, militarily results.
We're talking to countries about releasing the
straits because they are the ones, you know, we don't get
more than 1% to 2%.
China, as an example, gets about 90% of its wealth
from the Bourbon Strait, and
nice to have other countries
release them with us. And we'll help
work with them, militarily.
As far as I'm concerned, we've essentially defeated the Red.
I guess they can have a little bit of a fight back, but not much.
Not much. We've taken out their air forces, you know. We've taken out their navy.
We've taken out their air defenses. No air defense whatsoever.
We've taken out their leadership times two or three.
Might be three. We'll find out soon.
But, uh, militarily it's been amazing.
We attacked Garg, Violet, and it was just one little area, standing at the standing
quarters where they had the bikes and all the oilpines coming in.
And we can do that on five minutes notice.
We have it all locked and loaded and ready to go in front of to it.
But we chose not to do it. I chose not to do it again.
Let's see what happens.
They want to negotiate. They want to negotiate, manly.
I don't think they're ready.
I don't think they're ready to do what they have to do, but I think they will be, but
in some way.
But we're doing very well with respect to that whole situation in Iran.
We are talking to other countries about working for the smooth policing of the street, and
I think we're getting a good response.
And we do, that's great, and we know that's great too.
I'm just giving this.
We are ready to ensure safe passage.
Yeah, all of America's allies are once again unreliable, unreliable.
Once again, none of them want to wage war on our behalf or on Israel's behalf.
It's unbearable, unbelievable.
Through the straits of Hormuz diplomatically.
However, there will be no military participation.
We stand by our commitments and we are fulfilling our Alliance tasks,
particularly on NATO's Eastern flank and in the high north.
What does the world expect? What does Donald Trump expect?
From, let's say, a handful or two handfuls of European frigates
in the strait of Hormuz that the powerful American navy cannot accomplish there alone.
That's the question I ask myself.
And before we make a decision outside of NATO territory. Yo, why doesn't the Israeli Navy go do that?
Now that I thought now that you think about it, why why is it the German Navy's doing it?
Yeah, get the Israeli Navy on board. Do they even have a Israeli Navy that's capable of you know doing an operation later?
You put the boots put the Israeli boosts on the ground
Put the Israeli boosts on the ground
Get the Israeli Navy out there pronto. How come?
How come nobody is ever demanding Israel put their fucking
lives on the line for this shit, you know?
Yeah, they're so good when it comes to intercepting humanitarian aid flotillas off the coastline of Gaza
Let him go toe-to-toe with the Iranians man
Yeah, get those motherfuckers out there right now. I've decided Carg Island is right there
Ready to seize bring bring those boys over there drop ship their asses into Carg Island, dude
It's their war why you got fucking Germany sweating out here
You're being extremely anti-Semitic with the suggestion. I know I know it's how dare how dare I say hey
It's Israel's war. Why don't they wage it with their own fucking troops?
Yeah, oh more in Robani says they had the same idea. Yeah, why won't Trump call upon the Israeli Navy to open the Strait of Hormuz? I agree
By the way, we would need both an international framework and a mandate from the German Bundestag.
I would think about that very carefully before we take that step.
And I see absolutely no reason to do so.
It's not our war.
We didn't start it.
We want diplomatic solutions and a swift end.
And so we have been clear and consistent in our objectives throughout this conflict.
First, we will protect our people in the region.
Second, while taking the necessary action to defend ourselves and our allies,
we will not be drawn into the wider war.
And third, we will keep working towards a swift resolution
that brings security and stability back to the region.
Firstly, we are working with others to come up with a credible plan for the
straights of hormones to ensure that we can reopen shipping and passage through
the straight. Let me be clear that won't be and it's never been envisioned to be
a NATO mission. That'll have to be an alliance of partners which is why we're
working with partners both in Europe in the Gulf and with the US. It's
It's important that we continue that.
It is not straightforward, and you can see that historically when there have been other
conflicts that have affected the straits.
But I do think that working with others, including the U.S., is the way to go forward.
And I had a perfectly good discussion with President Trump about that yesterday.
And of course, as you'd expect, I mean, we are talking to the U.S. at all levels
all the time.
The Strait of Hormuz is then a separate discussion and it is a discussion.
We're not at a point of decisions yet and I want to really stress that.
Now let's cross to Katrina Yu who's joining us live from Beijing.
Katrina, Trump is expected to be in China at the end of the month
In that article he's making possibly a veil threat at least pressure on Beijing to try and helping.
I mean how's that going to go down?
I don't think it's going to go down well in the article Trump mentioned
China is one of the beneficiaries of oil being shipped through the Strait of Hormuz.
That is correct. He also said that China gets about 90% of its oil through the Strait.
that's not correct. It gets more like 40%, but it is still a substantial amount. Now, as far as we
know, that visit by Trump to China is still going ahead. In fact, over the last two days today and
yesterday, Chinese and US officials have been meeting in Paris to discuss potential outcomes
for that visit that Trump is expected to make. And the Chinese side and the US side said that
that was constructive and positive.
So we're yet to hear any official response
to this Financial Times interview.
But if that meeting or that summit were to be counted,
it would indeed be a blow.
This has been months in the making.
And the whole point of this visit
is to stabilize the relationship between the two
biggest superpowers to prevent a long list
of disagreements from spiraling out of control
into a wider conflict.
And there's a lot of stake, a lot at stake
for both the US and Chinese economies
on the agenda was, were future.
Uh-oh.
Reuters says the U.S. President Donald Trump
on Monday said he's seeking to delay a highly anticipated
trip to China in early April by a month
because of the Iran War.
We've requested that we delay it a month or so,
Trump told reporters of the White House,
China's embassy in Washington did not immediately
respond to requests for comment.
Why won't they,
Why won't they open the Strait of Hormuz?
Trade agreements, the discussion about the export
of rare earths from China to the US
and technology exports from the US to China.
So this would be delayed or postponed indefinitely.
That would be bad news for the companies
operating in both countries.
And it does show how volatile this relationship
between Washington and Beijing is.
China has made no promises that this meeting
is going ahead and actually there have been reports
China has been a bit frustrated about the lack of forward planning from Washington, but so
far as we know, officials here on both sides are planning for that trip to happen.
Now Katrina, one thing we do know about Donald Trump, he's very, very good at threatening
nations. Now if he does threaten to delay or cancel even the summit, what does China
do then?
Well, I think it's very unlikely that China is going to do what Trump asked.
That is to send some material help to help keep the Strait of Hormuz unblocked.
I think there are three main reasons for that.
First, Chinese President Xi Jinping does not have a history of capitulating or following
any of Trump's orders or coercion or threats.
Don't do it, my girl.
And he spoke last year with the long-running trade dispute when Trump hiked those tariffs
up to over a hundred percent China just said fine and it hiked get those
exports control and get those export controls going my goat do it starve out
the American beast of of empire attacks up in kind so I think that's the first
thing the second thing is that we know that China has been one of the biggest
critics of the US and Israel's war on Iran it condemned those there's a tax
that happened when negotiations were still underway China's foreign minister
China has said time and time again that force is not the answer.
It's urging for de-escalation to return to the negotiating table.
So it's quite difficult to imagine that Beijing would send firepower to that region.
And third, I think the last reason is that when you look at the Chinese oil that is
being transiting through the Strait of Hong Kong, there are some reports that Chinese
ships are still being allowed to pass.
And that is because China is a very friendly and positive partner for Iran.
the biggest trading partner, the biggest buyer of Iranian oil. So there are reports albeit
unconfirmed that Iran is still allowing Chinese shipments to pass through a few to pass through
the Strait of Hormuz. So that would reduce even further Beijing's motivation to send some
warships or do whatever Trump said to keep the Strait of Hormuz unblocked.
That's Katrina Yu, live for us there from Beijing.
Now, Andy Mock is a senior research fellow with the Center for China and Globalization.
I think Tank was based in Beijing.
He's also a professor at the Beijing Foreign Studies University, and he joins us from Beijing.
Andy, this was completely predictable and totally avoidable.
The shutting of the straight home of Hermousse was going to happen if this escalated.
But does this give China an opportunity to reassert itself as an alternative to the U.S.
when it comes to a power broker?
Well, I think you're certainly right that the U.S. walked into a morass or a quagmire,
and there's an American phrase, you know, a falso, right?
Mess around and find out.
And I think it really, again.
That's crazy.
For whatever reasons is he went mess around finding itself entangled in a situation that's
very, very difficult to extract itself from.
And I think the best way to understand maybe how China is viewing this is there's a very
famous saying, I believe attributed to Napoleon, never interrupt your opponent when he is making
a mistake. So I think that from that perspective, certainly while the U.S. is tied down, I think
while it's a Navy, which was originally under tremendous stress, and one way I've heard
it put is while the U.S. military, the tip of the U.S. military spear is sharp,
The shaft is brittle, and I think we are seeing that play out as well.
So that certainly distraction, certainly I think, is in China's interest.
And then I think finally, China's approach to this really has been to any kind of conflict
is to resolve it through mutual discussion, respect for sovereignty, versus any sort
of direct military intervention.
So I think it does seem, as we've heard Katrina just say too, that it seems unlikely that China
would intervene in the way that President Trump is hoping for.
Paper tiger baby.
But President Donald Trump puts a lot of stock in personal relationships.
And he does have a relationship.
We don't know if he's good or bad, but he certainly has one with Xi Jinping.
And he's going to use that publicly to put pressure on China to try and help out.
His biggest card, he's got the moment, is canceling the summit.
What does that mean?
Well, I think that's an interesting approach because certainly, I think from the Chinese
perspective, again, it recognizes and respects the bilateral relationship between China and
the United States.
And I think also, as we've seen over the last year or so, China also exerts tremendous leverage
over the United States.
It's not just the rare earth metals.
It's the Boeing aircraft.
It's the soybeans sold by American farmers.
So I think while certainly personal relationships matter in diplomacy, just as they say in
Hollywood, it's not show friends.
It's show business.
And I think that's even more true of diplomacy.
Well, talking of diplomacy then, China has a very, very good relationship, a good working
relationship with Iran.
It supplied technologies to Iran just before the war happened.
What's the state of relations now between Iran and China?
Because China hasn't stepped up in perhaps the way a lot of military analysts thought
they might.
But again, if you look at what China has done in previous conflicts, you mentioned that
earlier, China doesn't really get involved militarily.
Yes, I think that's absolutely right, Mon.
And I think, again, this is a very profound difference, I think, in approach to diplomacy
that is more than just tactical.
But again, I would say it's philosophical as well.
I also want to mention, I think, a very, very important point here that's not perhaps
well appreciated.
So China, of course, through rare earth metals actually provides critical inputs into Patriot
missiles, et cetera.
So this is one area that I think the U.S. is acutely aware of.
But at the same time, because of its manufacturing supply chain for drones, its components,
it is also, even though perhaps not at the state level, actively supporting Iran
in this way, but certainly I think you're again providing critical inputs through market
mechanisms to Iran to continue this conflict, to defend itself from this aggression from
the United States and Israel.
So I think this dynamic I think is also very, very important to appreciate.
But Andy, what is the relationship?
You just mentioned Israel there, and that was going to be my next question.
Is there a relationship between China and Israel that China can leverage it?
Right.
Well, again, I think China's approach is, first of all, not to take one side over the
other.
And I think we see this very clearly in West Asia or the Middle East in that it believes
in the importance of relationships with all countries in the region.
So it's not just the GCC countries.
also, as we're talking about today, it's Iran, it's Israel.
So I think this is a very different approach to how the U.S. approaches the policy in this
region.
And I think, again, we're seeing the negative impact on this.
So it's not only the short-term oil disruption, the impact it might have on global economies,
including the United States, but this may actually irrevocably damage the trust that
in particular with GCC countries have the United States.
So I think again, there are I think very high costs
to the US approach of taking one side.
And I think these are becoming more visible
with this recent action.
And the more the Trump administration.
Andy, thank you so much for your thoughts.
Fascinating.
The president is very dismayed with American allies.
He's putting a lot of pressure on them.
He wants help from them.
when it comes to the straight-up for news which iran essentially has any
standstill
to oil traffic going through their oil traffic that doesn't really pertain to
the u.s.. But it does because that's how oil is priced uh... it's a global uh...
pricing system obviously and it's affecting the u.s..
uh... but he's frustrated with the american allies it doesn't have to be
but even then you would be destroying the rest of the uh... rest of the
planet like you would be
destroying so many countries that rely on the imports.
Like American oil export controls,
especially at a time like this,
would destroy the energy grids
of so many other countries as well.
So there's also that problem as well.
Numerous countries have told me they're on the way.
Some are very enthusiastic about it, and some are.
Some are countries that we've helped for many, many years.
We've protected them from horrible outside sources, and they weren't that enthusiastic.
I just want the fake news media and everybody else to remember that that was said because
when I've been a big critic of all of the protecting of countries because I know that
we'll protect them and if ever needed, if we ever needed help, if they won't be there
for us.
Alright, our reporters are at the White House, Tel Aviv and they've been listening to the
President's remarks, they're covering all different angles of this.
I want to bring in CNN's Elena Trine first at the White House.
Elena.
is a baby. Like he truly is, he operates like a baby. Like he's like, I'm broken. Why won't
you help me fix it by making it worse? Actually, put your bodies on the line for me. I could totally
deescalate and for the record, a lot of these other countries, these vassal states are disgusting.
Like, they could turn around and say, hey, this can be fixed if you just de-escalate.
You know?
If you left Iran alone, this would be fine.
Why won't you do that?
That would be the honest take here.
That would be the honest approach.
But of course, we will never have the honest approach when it comes to international politics,
international relations, because these guys are vassals.
So at most they'll say, oh, well, we don't want to intervene.
We don't want to risk the lives of our, the lives of our soldiers, stuff like that.
We don't want to risk our assets.
What can our assets do that the American government can't?
Right?
Like, what could our assets accomplish that you literally cannot do?
Which is true.
That's like, that's the argument here.
But the real argument should be to say, hey, we all want this instability to end.
You are the reason for why this instability exists.
What stood out to you based on what we heard there?
Yeah, I think really touching on exactly what you just played for the president was really
I may have asked this before, but you said yes when I asked the U.S. deserves another
Cuban Missile Crisis.
What would your reaction be if right now nukes are aimed at the U.S. and you're with an impact
radius?
I mean, that is what it would be if we're talking about the Cuban Missile Crisis.
That's literally what it is.
Nuclear arms are not meant to be used.
As a matter of fact, nuclear arms are just a deterrent.
It's the maximum deterrent.
Also, there are nuclear arms that are aimed in the United States of America right
at the United States of America right now, it's just, you know, some of them are from our foreign
adversaries and clearly no one is using them, which is great. And then there's also one that is a
foreign ally. Israel has nukes. They're aimed at the United States of America. I'd be more worried
about that shit than Russia, honestly. Yeah, I don't know if the chatter knows this, but we have
ICBMs. Now you were accessible by Nuke on all corners of the earth. Those didn't exist during
the Cuban Missile Crisis. They also, not only did they not exist during the Cuban Missile Crisis,
they exist now. And you know who else has ICBMs? Fucking North Korea. Everybody always talks
about how North Korea, oh my god, if they get nukes, if they produce nukes, it's over, right?
They have nukes. Then they were like, oh, well, if they get nukes, but then they also
developed a delivery mechanism in ICBM, then it's over because they're unstable, they're dangerous,
they're crazy. Well, they have them too.
They have ICBMs and they have nukes. The only thing that that is created for North Korea is that we
don't fuck with them. We don't fuck with them. Do you understand? Perhaps that's the real reason why.
I was a fan and I still am in theory a fan of denuclearization across the board, right?
Universally destroying all nuclear arms.
That should be the goal.
Having said that, however, it's not going to happen until everybody has nukes, in my
opinion.
Really the most notable to me this idea of his disappointment and he used that word specifically
Omar and Brianna to describe the infantility of the German government appears to have no
limits.
The German Foreign Minister announces regimes like Iran cannot invoke international law.
The most fundamental principle of international law is that it applies equally to all states
to challenge that is to declare yourself a rogue state.
Yeah, terror, terror.
IRGC threatens to target American firms across the Gulf, including Halliburton, Honeywell,
Oracle, and Lockheed Bloomberg.
The massive shot on natural gas field in the United Arab Emirates caught fire after
Drogsheik has shut it down, attacks in Abil, Kuwait, and Saudi continue, by the way.
Yeah, footage of the embassy CRAM shooting drones over residential areas in Baghdad.
Iran fired missiles towards Tel Aviv.
One was intercepted near Bangurian.
Hezbollah announced a third direct attack on Merkabani or Taipei within the span of
90 minutes.
countries and particularly the NATO allies that he says are not coming to the United
States aid here and trying to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz. I thought, you know,
what we heard of him actually yesterday is very much the same kind of threat we're hearing today.
Almost this ominous warning to countries who do not get involved here to send warships to escort
these tankers, which is very dangerous, I should point out. We've heard that now from many
the top military commanders and what not, but helping in this dangerous mission of trying
to send these warships to escort these tankers through that very critical straight of her
move.
At one point he said, I think we're going to have some very good help, and I think we're
going to be disappointed with some countries, again, getting back to that point.
But one thing that very much was clear, and it was a bit clear from that clip you played
is that he continued to talk about this idea of how he's always thought of the
NATO alliance almost as being more beneficial for other members than it is for the United
States. At one point he said, I've said for years that we, why aren't we being reimbursed
for what the United States is doing in the street of formulas? He's kept saying, I've
been saying that for years. He brought up this point that he believes that when these
countries need help from the U.S., the U.S. is willing to help them, not necessarily
other way around. One thing I do want to be clear on though, and just some context
to all of this, is what has been so interesting about the president calling
on these countries to send these warships to help reopen the street, is that this is
the first time really that we've heard the president be so eager to involve other countries
in this war.
I remind you that when the U.S. first struck Iran, of course, with Israel as well, a lot
of these countries said that they were surprised and that they, you know, were
kind of caught off guard when that first happened.
So I'd keep that in mind here as well.
But really I think this enormous pressure we have seen from President Trump and
I should notice while someone who was repeatedly mused openly about this idea of withdrawing
support from the NATO alliance, this pressure that continues to build, even so, we still
haven't seen a lot of these allies who the president said he wouldn't name, but a lot
of these allies come out and say that they would actually send warships.
You know, you look at Germany, the U.K., Japan, who I should note whose prime minister
will be here later at the White House later this week, all of them so far being
very cautious about heeding the president's urges here right now.
Members of NATO are responding after President Trump warned that the alliance would face a
quote, very bad future if it doesn't help secure the straight of Hormone.
This is, you know what's funny about this?
I've been thinking about this a little bit.
You know how we created a secondary market because we had applied such rigorous sanctions,
such strict sanctions on so many countries that they basically created their own independent
marketplace?
What are we going to do?
Add Europe to said secondary market?
Like if everyone else is isolated, then you're the one who's actually isolated, you know?
We are by force building brick by brick, the BRICS allegiance, and then now we're adding
what?
The European Union?
Obviously, they are servile dogs that will never decouple from America and American Empire.
But god damn, if we just keep pressuring, if we just keep up the stress, eventually
people are just going to be like, alright, well how about we all just isolate America
and this will actually cut off the head of the snake, really.
Now, the EU's foreign policy chief appeared to agree with President Trump that it is in
Europe's interest to keep the Strait open, but also added its quote, out of NATO's area
of action.
And a spokesperson for German Chancellor Friedrich Merz struck a more defiant tone, saying it
is not NATO's war.
Meanwhile, British Prime Minister Kirstarmer spoke about the situation earlier.
We have to reopen the straight-off hold moves to control stability in the market.
That is not a simple task.
So we're working with all of our allies, including our European partners, to bring together
a viable collective plan that can restore freedom of navigation in the region as quickly
as possible and ease the economic impacts.
Let's talk about the dynamics here.
I want to bring in Jim Townsend.
He served as Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense
for European and NATO policy.
Good to see you.
I just want to start on, I want to pick up with a little bit
of what we heard from the president here in terms
of the United States' relationship with NATO.
On one hand, asking for help, not just from NATO countries,
but from those, from the likes of China and Japan as well,
but also in the same breath saying the United States
doesn't need NATO.
And I just wonder from the European perspective,
Where is the threshold for actual assistance here?
Excuse me.
And what do you think it would take to actually get
to that point?
Well, it's a great question.
And I think there's a lot of confusion
about NATO versus NATO allies.
But NATO as an institution, if it
wanted to go to the straits, if this was something
that NATO agreed like going to Afghanistan was,
NATO could do that.
But NATO right now would not have the, it would never get the votes within the alliance
to make this an alliance operation.
However, NATO nations can certainly come together in a coalition of the willing and go in there
and do what the Prime Minister, Stammer was talking about.
What is this?
Breaking security and exchange commission is preparing proposals to eliminate the quarterly
earnings report requirement and give instead companies the option to share results twice
per year. What? Every single security should be like one of those weird shamot specs that
he blocks you for bringing up. All investing should feel the same as trying to hit a parlay
on an influencer boxing card. Oh my God. SEC no more, no longer will be doing quarterly
earnings reports
all my god
i mean fuck it we ball right it's all fake anyway holy shit the market is so
fake
and this is it this is making it even more fake
about
to go in there and to work with the U.S. Navy and get the straits open.
So as far as Europeans are concerned, they realize that this is going to be in their
interest because of the price of energy and other economic ramifications.
But they're still stung by how they have been addressed by Trump and how the alliance
has been addressed in terms of NATO.
So there's not a lot of good feelings towards the United States right now, particularly
because they were not part of the process and the run-up to this war.
And that's one of the major contrasts here, that in the past we may have seen the United
States sort of feel out that support that may be there from allies before taking
action as significant as we've seen here.
Obviously that didn't happen here.
But in terms of assistance, the President is asking for whatever it takes to quote
including minesweepers for example. What help could NATO countries actually
offer here that would help in the United States efforts?
Well one thing that a lot of the NATO nations who are seafaring nations,
like Denmark, UK and others, they do minesweeping. The NATO has a very
capable minesweeping capability among the nations. So it doesn't have to be
NATO maritime operation. How are you gonna fucking sweep the mines if there are drones flying overhead
under a missile barrage? It's not happening. NATO is not doing shit. America is not doing
shit. First of all, if America can't send their goddamn ships over the strait,
Why would the UK be any different? Which is pretty much what the European leaders have said as you guys heard, right?
They were like, oh, if you can't send your ships, why the fuck would we do that? You're America.
NATO is also America. And if Iran is urging America to send their ships and they're wild enough to
the fucking blow up america ships, why wouldn't they blow up a French ship or a or any european
ship for that for that matter, if they were to try to illegally cross the straight and
violate the blockade that they're implementing.
It's over. There's one way to open it up. Either we just keep bombing Iran and hope
that eventually they run out of bullets, and that would take probably months at this point,
if not a year, maybe more than a year, or, or we de-escalate.
There, it can be the nations themselves who can bring their minesweeping capability to
the Gulf.
The UK used to have minesweepers there.
They're not there anymore.
The US, they do, and they're not there.
So I think what's important here is that the allies, the NATO nations themselves, that
this might not be a NATO operation, but the European nations know that this has got to
be done.
And I think they need to hold their nose and get this done.
Trump or not, Trump, a German war, not a German war, a NATO war, not a NATO war,
we've got to put that aside.
And these nations can bring not just their minesweeping, but they've got frigates.
They can do escorting.
They can do a lot of things, leaving the combat activities to the U.S., if that's the
way they want to do it.
We're joined now by CNN military analyst, retired Army Lieutenant General Mark Schwartz.
General, thank you so much for being with us here.
In response to Trump's calls to assist with keeping shipping lanes open, there was
a spokesperson for the German Chancellor who said, this war has nothing to do with
NATO, it is not NATO's war.
So, you know, maybe you can sort of dissect the president's request here.
I think there's a lot of folks who look at it and think there are flaws, but also can
NATO really wash their hands of this?
I don't think they can.
I think NATO collectively is an alliance.
Maybe it's not a NATO Alliance Article 5 scenario, but certainly there's many European
countries that have provided a littoral combat ship-like vessels, frigates, other mind-counter-mine
capabilities to many of U.S.-led coalition maritime efforts.
So I suspect we'll see.
They keep saying no.
It's so funny.
Germany's government rejected.
This is literally five minutes ago.
Germany's government rejected Trump's demands that NATO allies, NATO allies help secure
the Shredda Formos, declaring that the Alliance had no place in the war.
It's so funny.
Oh, it's so awesome.
They just keep saying, no, dude, no.
Why would we do that?
And it makes sense because Trump is not doing it, right?
Like what difference fundamentally would it make if it wasn't just Americans who are trying
to cross the trade of hormones, but like also different naval assets of European countries
like NATO nations?
Like what is the goal to just like overwhelm their munitions?
like a missile sponge? Yeah, we just send the fucking European ships ahead, and they just
get pummeled, and then hopefully they'll run out of bullets. Several countries eventually
agree to come in. The United Kingdom is like, I don't think people understand something.
If Iran is crazy enough to attack America, then smaller countries getting involved is
not going to change the equation.
Is Donald Trump trying to create the conditions of a world war against Iran?
Is Donald Trump trying to get every country to create a coalition of the willing to send
thousands of soldiers and and naval assets to try and like go and invade militarily the nation they ever on because
Anything short of that
It's not gonna fucking work
Because again all they need to do is bunker up and just keep lobbing fucking drones
It is an incredibly cheap way of destabilizing the global energy markets
Okay, the more I talk about this the more I'm realizing maybe that is the fucking point
I guess like he's is he gonna try to do like a world war or something like what
Pelosi mobilized Nancy Pelosi was spotted at a hidden bunker in Tel Aviv kneeling in Nenyao's casket in a plethora bustier
And a visible whale tail from her micro skirt looking thick as hell
No, she was wearing that outfit last night at the Vanity Fair Oscar party, though.
Yowza, what a woman.
You know, you heard the Prime Minister speak earlier about, hey, let's come together and
put together a task force of coalition to support freedom of navigation.
So, you know, I just, I wish this wasn't playing out in public.
It's not healthy, I don't think, with long-standing alliances that kind of, you know, tip-for-tap
that's going on.
But I do think inevitably we'll see many European countries come to support this effort.
The problem is clear.
The solution, not so much.
Having gone to war with Iran, Donald Trump now wants the UK and other NATO allies
to help combat the repercussions.
namely unblocking the Strait of Hormuz after Tehran made this vital waterway part of the
war zone by targeting tankers with missiles and drones.
The US president has so far received a lukewarm response from his friends, despite warning
that his support for NATO may hinge on what they offer.
I was very surprised with the United Kingdom, because the United Kingdom two weeks ago
So I said, why don't you send some ships over and he really didn't want to do it.
I said, you don't want to do it.
We've been with you.
You're our oldest ally and we spend a lot of money on, you know, NATO and all of these
things to protect you.
And then they tell us that we have a mine ship around and they don't want to do it.
I think it's, I think it's terrible.
Sikistama portrayed the phone call on Sunday in a more positive light.
We are working with others to come up with a credible plan for the scrapes of hall moves.
I don't get it guys.
I fell asleep day three and the last thing I remember was Trump saying, we don't need
British ships, they're gay and it's a W, it's over.
We killed the Ayatollah.
I'm waking up now 13 days later and we're looking for alternatives. We're trying to, we're, we're
trying to bring in, you know, British troops, trying to get them involved in this shit.
What's going on? What is this? Uh, semaphore takes less than five minutes to get Trump's
number. Yeah. I, it's kind of crazy that this is a semaphore article, but yes, I,
I know this from Brace. I have, I could get Trump's number right now if I wanted to.
To ensure that we can reopen shipping and passage through the straight. And I had a
perfectly good discussion with President Trump about that yesterday.
Iran made clear any move to escort tankers and other commercial shipping through the straight
would be high risk.
They are asking other countries to come and assist them so that the strait of Hormuz
remains open. Of course, from our perspective, it is open. It's only close to our enemies,
to those who carried out unjust aggression against our country and to their allies.
Of course, the best way to restore tanker traffic would be a ceasefire between the
US, Israel and Iran. Otherwise, the US military would have to take the lead in coordinating
any international mission to protect shipping lanes with its warships and surveillance aircraft.
The biggest coward man in the world, Starmer, standing his ground incredible. Honestly, it's
because he's just like afraid of everything. He's afraid of Trump, sure. But he's also
afraid of like sending troops. That's the reason why he's like, he clearly wasn't
afraid when it came to like you know sending the royal air force to go do
genocide alongside Israel right but this time like it's not his enemies are
not children inside of schools his enemy is is the nation of Iran and they got you
know clearly they got smoke so that's the reason why he's like maybe this time
we stay out of it you know I'm I'm too scared as for what the UK could
offer, it's a lot less than in the past. Right now, the Royal Navy has no warship to hunt
and destroy mines in the region, whereas it used to have four. Also, the single major
warship that has been dispatched to help bolster Britain's defences is still en route.
The UK has talked about sea drones as a possible option, but they fall far short of the
sought a protection provided by a destroyer or a frigate.
It's the reality of defence cuts over time that's left Britain so reliant on the US for
its own protection and so exposed if Trump really does decide to go cool on defending
Europe.
Deborah Haynes Sky News.
Day 17 of the war and of course we see the things we would expect to see at this
stage which is more attacks on both sides.
map changes every day, but it's a map that we can expect to continue in that vein for
a while.
More interesting at the moment is what is happening in the Strait of Hummus because this has now
become a very hot issue and the politics of it are extremely delicate.
Let's take the politics out of it for a moment and just think about the technical side.
Any military, if any military was going to try to open the Strait of Hummus what
would it need?
Well it would need three things.
The first thing it would need is a series of air defense destroyers which could
actually operate along the coastline providing air defense against missiles or drones being
this is so dumb they would get fucking destroyed i don't think that there is the necessary manpower
guys guys this area that you can navigate by sea is two miles this area from land to
land is 20 miles and the only area that you can navigate through the sea is two miles wide.
It is fucking dumb as hell bro. There is no shot.
You fired from the Iranian side. The second thing it would need is a series of air attacks
probably, on targets inside Iran, any targets that could operate against something on the coast.
So we'd need a very active policy of hitting things every time they saw them appear near the coast.
And then the third thing it would need, and this is the most difficult of course,
is a convoy system. So we've made some guesses here. Supposing a convoy's six ships was envisaged
and these would be tankers. These tankers are supposed to keep at least eight to twelve
ship lens apart was when they travel through this area supposing that was cut by 50% supposing they
said okay four lens apart is good enough well at four lens apart.
Geography favors Iran in any war to open her mose the shipping lanes are so narrow tankers
enable escorts are sitting ducks perfect for iran's drones and mines trump is caught in the
escalation trap okay robert pipe we get it escalation trap man jesus christ yeah look see
This is what I was saying. The shipping lanes
that you can navigate are only two nautical miles wide, bro.
This entire, like, land-to-land distance
is 20 miles, but the rest of it is too shallow.
So the shipping lanes are only
Two nautical miles wide
Ain't no fucking way that's happening
A hormone her moves tight yeah, bro that shit is tight is tight as hell fuck
It is tight baby
Yeah, escort missions would be carried out by destroyers or frigates with air cover Arleigh Burke class guided missile destroyers
U.S. Is Michael Murphy U.S. Ispruins U.S. Frankie Peterson, Jr.
Multi-layer threats are drones and fast attack vessels mini subs and sea mines and also
ballistic missiles as well
Like rocket fire you could have I mean its opportunities are endless
Yeah, Hermosie So she's not gonna have these tankers we're
still talking about a convoy that would be about 12 kilometers long it would still be
a very long why can't you put the oil on a much faster boat so the Rockets and Drone
can't hit them? Are they fucking stupid? Yeah, why didn't they think of that, bro? Just tiny
GoFast boats. How much oil could they... Yeah, just unleash a swarm of tiny boats.
Convoy, even with a warship at either end. So a warship at either end would need to be
supplemented by sort of sheepdogs that are able to move in and out of the convoy to protect
protect them against drones against robot boats against people with it in rubber inflatables
just trying their luck. This would be a very large area to try to preserve. Now of course
this is bro. That's like you put six destroyers in there. Two of them are getting sunk. Easy.
None of the oil ships are getting through. They're blowing them up instantly. And
And at least two of the destroyers are getting sunk.
At least two.
And then the others have to do evasive maneuvering.
They probably get damaged beyond repair as well.
It's just not happening.
It would be the greatest public relations victory for the Iranian state.
I don't think any general would do that, but I don't know, we've been so unimaginably
idiotic so far in the in the way that we have conducted this war in the way that we prosecuted
this war it's just who knows maybe they got some real dumbasses willing to do it scale but
12 kilometers of admiral sorry sorry target traveling 600 miles right up to the chateau
out of water at the head of the gulf is quite a long gauntlet to have to run other any alternatives
Well, there is one clear alternative which the Saudis thought about years ago when they
faced this during the Iraq-Iran war in the 1980s.
They built themselves a pipeline that goes from Abkhaz to Yambu.
And that pipeline is very efficient, but it won't take the amount of oil.
No, it's not.
Yeah, it's 15%.
There's also issues with, there's also issues with, it's not all the refineries, it can only
take 15%.
Oil pipelines can be destroyed in the same process with drone strikes.
And last but not least, even at Yambu, that's still, the Houthis can still start nuking
the ones that are not going up the Suez Canal because they still have to go through this
choke point.
Okay, they're in Yambu.
Great.
What's that?
Oh, no.
That's the Houthi sound.
That's the sound of the fucking Asala movement.
What are they going to do now?
That still needs to be got out through the gulf and here is the problem.
If they put tankers into the Red Sea, which they could, to load up at Yambu, first of all
they've got to go out through the Babar Mandeb Strait at the foot of the Red Sea.
And that area of course is threatened by the Houthis who have said that we will attack
Shipping in that area. Yeah, if you were wondering like who these love the smoke, right? They live for it
Why have they been so quiet as of late? This is why they're just waiting for this moment
Okay
That's it
Now they haven't done that yet and we don't really know why they haven't done it
But that threat is still there the other alternative is of course to go out
No, they're the Houthis are not particularly restrained people. I think like there's a there's a tactical reason for why they're doing it
That's my assessment at least
Because like they are letting they are letting ships pass through right now
But if they wanted to close that shit, they could also do that through the sewage canal
But the fact is it what is the depth permitted through the sewage canal in reality?
It's 20 meters and if you think about the big tankers that we're talking about 20 meters is not enough
This is a very large crude carrier VLCC and there are all the crude carries even bigger than this and a very large
crude carrier requires the depth of about
21 or 22 meters and the ULCC's even more than that so that would he's built different. I don't know dude
There's some of it
Look, there's just some about the Yemeni people. I don't know what the fuck it is, but they are some of the most resilient
There's some of the craziest motherfuckers I've ever encountered in my life. Okay, I
Don't know what the hell it is. Hold on. I'm gonna give you some stuff back
They're crazy, bro. Fact is that the big tank are built differently actually on Iran
It'd be dangerous for them to try to get out through the the bottom or the southern part of the Red Sea
So there we are. The fact is an awful lot of oil is tied up in the gulf at the moment.
Getting it out through the gulf itself, through the war to aid the strait of the musk is dangerous.
Getting it out via the Red Sea, using the Saudi pipeline is dangerous.
That's where the war is for now and that probably is what is going to circle back and affect the politics of the war in the next week or two.
To the brave people of Iran, I wish you as I do every year.
year. A happy holiday season beginning with the festival of lights. It signifies the age
old belief of the Iranian people that light will triumph over darkness, that good will
triumph over evil. This year, this holiday has special meaning. Celebrate it with your
friends, your family, your loved ones. I take this opportunity to wish you to be
the last time you see them because I'm a murderer and I'm coming to do murder.
No.
Well, happy no rules. A year of freedom and you beginning of hope to all of you,
my dear friends, no rules peruse by on day Iran.
We turn now to the foreign minister of Iran, a boss, a rug.
Good evening to you, sir.
Good evening to you. Thank you for having me for the second time.
Yes, and they are extraordinary times.
Minister President Trump said this weekend he is not ready to make a deal with Iran because the terms aren't good enough yet.
His administration is saying this war could last another three and a half weeks or so.
Has Iran asked for a ceasefire?
No, we never ask for ceasefire and we have never asked even for negotiation.
We are ready to defend ourselves as long as it takes and this is what we have done so
far and we continue to do that until President Trump comes to the point that this is an-
What?
Bro's jorgin' it?
What?
Did it look like I was jerking off when I was tossing my salad?
Yeah, in front of 45,000 people, I just decided to whip it out.
Fucking idiots.
Illegal war with no victory.
And you know, there are, you know, people being killed only because President Trump wants to have fun.
This is what he has said.
Have fun. Yes, this is what he said that they are sinking ships and targeting different places
because it is fun. We didn't say that. The Secretary-General, when your president is so stupid,
when your president is so unimaginably stupid that the foreign minister of your,
your, the foreign minister of an adversary, just repeats what he has said and you don't believe it.
Has said that there is no,
no messy.
And this is actually a war crime, even, even saying that is a war crime.
So this is a war, this is a war of choice by President Trump
and the United States, and we are going to continue our self-defense.
Well, that may be your position, but sir, this is a war of survival for your government.
Minister, don't you have to negotiate and reach out either directly or through a third party?
No, it's not a war of survival. We are, you know, stable and strong enough.
We are only defending our people from this cycle of aggression.
And we don't see any reason why we should talk with the Americans because we were talking
with them when they decided to attack us.
And that was the second time.
There is no good experience talking with the Americans.
We were talking.
So why they decided to attack us?
So what is good?
if we go back to talk once again.
Well, I want to come back to that in just a moment.
You're referring to the diplomacy
with President Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner
and his envoy Steve Whitcoff.
But just to continue on this,
Iran is sending its drones and its missiles
into your neighboring countries,
American allies throughout the Gulf.
Okay.
There has to be some journalistic value
at a certain point with these conversations.
Why do they always ask this question?
I've heard Abbasarakshi answer this fucking
same dumbass question on this show before.
He's been on Face the Nation twice.
This is now the second time he has asked the same question.
And every other question they keep asking the same,
they're like, why are you retaliating against American bases
in the fucking region that we're trying
to launch a tax off of?
Before the war, your government traded with them.
You had relations with them.
If your government survives this conflict,
how do you go back to doing business with countries
you're sending drones into and hitting civilian targets?
Well, obviously, these are the countries
who have given their soil to American forces to attack us.
So what can we do?
We just sit and watch that American forces are attacking
us from their soil.
But your drones are going to civilian areas and hitting plants and hotels and civilians?
No, no, this is not the fact.
We are only targeting American assets, American installations, American military bases.
Everything belongs to Americans.
And this is a fact that they are using their soil.
There are many, many examples.
Just yesterday they attacked our islands using high-mass artillery rockets, which are low-range
rockets, and they used the territory of UAE to attack us.
Some a week ago, three F-15 jet fighters were shot down, apparently by a friendly fire
in Kuwait, but nobody asked what they were doing in Kuwait. They were using Kuwait and
you know aid a space of a neighborly friendly country to attack us. So it is obvious we
cannot just you know remain you know. Well so many of these countries are part of of
SENTCOM, but but this is the point is that it's going to hurt your country in the
long term. But when we talk about the Strait of Hormuz.
It's crazy.
Yeah, don't you think it's already hurting the country in the short term?
Think.
Don't you think it's already hurting the Iran in the short term right now?
The very fact that all of its neighbors have American military bases that are being utilized,
their souls being utilized to attack Iran?
which is such an important transit point for global trade. You have said it is closed to
Israel and it's closed to the United States. The Financial Times is reporting that European diplomats
from France and Italy are talking to your government about trying to get safe passage for
their ships. Are you open to restarting oil and gas vessels going through there?
Well, we are open to countries who want to talk to us about the safe passage of their
vessels.
You are negotiated with France and Italy?
Well, I cannot mention any country in particular, but we have been approached by a number of
countries who wants to have a safe passage for their vessels.
And this is up to our military to decide.
And they have already decided to let, you know, a group of, you know, vessels belongs to different
countries to pass in a safe and secure.
So we provide them security to pass, because we have not closed this straight.
They are not coming themselves because of the insecurity, which is there because of
the aggression by the U.S.
I want to ask you again about the negotiations.
Iran has declared it has 440 kilos or so.
We'll cover that in a little bit of nuclear material. Where is that material now? Who has custody of it?
Well, we have not declared this is verified and declared by the agency. That's not a secret
This is not a secret, you know, the agency have said in his many reports the exact amount of our enriched
You know nuclear material. Yes. So where is it now? Who has custody of it?
So they are there under the rubble, you know, our nuclear facilities were attacked and everything
is under the rubble.
Of course, you know, there is the possibility to retreat them, but under the supervision
of the agency.
If one day we come to the conclusion to do that, it will be under the supervision of
the agency.
But for the time being, we have no program, we have no plan to recover them from under
the rubble.
Am I understanding you here because I know that you said 48 hours before the U.S. strikes
happened, you had personally offered to President Trump's negotiators to take that 440 kilo
amount of 60 percent enriched material and to dilute it.
You said Iran was ready to give that material away.
This was in the deal that was also presented to Vice President Vance by Oman.
today? Is Iran still willing to let go of that enriched uranium?
Well, that was one of the elements of a deal that we were negotiating with our,
you know, American interlocutors.
That element were dealt with the question of Iran's 60% enriched material.
And I said, I offered actually that we are ready to dilute those enriched
enriched material or downblend them as they say into lower percentage so that
was a you know a big offer a big concession in order to prove that Iran
has never wanted to kill weapons and would never want them. Are you willing to give that up now?
Well there is nothing on the table right now everything depends on you.
Dude, the fucking based the nation anchor is not capable of conducting diplomacy with a sovereign foreign adversary that we're currently waging war with.
Are you going to give it up?
Tell me, are you going to give it up?
He's going to say we're not giving anything up right now because we're in war.
on the future. If any time in the future we decide to enter into negotiation with the U.S. or other
interlocutors, you know, we may decide what to put on the table. For the time being, nothing is
on the table. There are at least four Americans being held at Evan Prison that we know of,
including a journalist, Reza Balazade and Cameron Hekmatia, 61-year-old man. What is
the status of those Americans? Are they safe? This part is beast mode. Listen to us. Well,
if if they if the US and Israel do not attack our prisons, I guess they are safe.
Foreign Minister, we are running out of time and I can see the internet is going in and out
here. I just do want to point out you're speaking to us via zoom. Are you guys gonna
bomb them? No? Okay, then they're safe. The Iranian people don't have open internet access.
But you do. Why? Well, I'm the vote because I'm the voice of Iranians. And I have to defend
they write. So this is why I have access to to internet to to just, uh, uh, you know,
have uh have our voice being heard by the i'm sorry
again
You want to know what the honest answer is?
Because they're under a fucking attack by israel in america
And they do not want
infiltration
They do not want additional worries of espionage
they don't want America to be able to fucking turn on the propaganda fossil like they're known to do
and cause complete fucking chaos so you meet the people yes yes yes yes what do you mean like
It's war man. It's war. It's war. What the fuck are you talking about? It's war
No, mate
Like I'm sorry you can't fucking there's a line yeah this guy
Shion John he's got it. He's like if I can't fucking jerk off on porn help for one day
Well, there's bombs exploded over my fucking head. I'll kill myself
Now I made there's a line you have to let Israel infiltrate the country with their spies
Fuck you
to the national community, but the internet is closed because of the security reasons because
we are under attack, we are under aggression, and we have to do everything to protect our
people. In any country, there are, you know, urgent measures taken for the sake of war.
Minister, I'm glad the uplink worked to talk to you right now. We thank you for
your time this morning. They say she'll be back in a minute, stay with us.
In Tehran a new era has begun, of sorts. Not the one America or Israel wanted. The Ayatollah
is dead, long live the Ayatollah, his son. Iran's airspace closed, we came overland,
among the only international journalists currently allowed in, to witness the impact of the
It's also really funny because they're like, wow, I can't believe that there's like, serious internet connectivity issues in Iran.
How devastating.
Um, how, how fucked up.
It's like, bro, our president currently wants to utilize the FCC to do a media blackout in the freest country on the fucking planet.
Because he doesn't like the accurate coverage that the media accidentally does every now and then.
Like and we are not under imminent threat at all. We are the threat
We still chat about how America will shut off mobile connectivity at protest at the time all the time
How are people so stupid that they think that we're under same circumstances around to the US shut off the internet as well? Yeah
Like America literally got Larry Ellison
One of the IDF's biggest billionaire donors to purchase Tiktok because Americans were too aware
of the war crimes that our tax dollars were contributing to.
And you're over here being like, wow, how can Iran do such a cruel thing?
Bitch!
What the fuck are you talking about? They're under attack!
Back to this war on the ground as it continues to escalate.
In an exclusive interview with Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister, an ominous warning, a speculation
grows that America may next send in troops.
Even suggesting that a foreign country can put boots on the ground of another country,
invade another country, occupy the land of another country, is something very much rogue,
very reckless, illegal and against all international law.
There are thousands of US Marines on the way. What happens if they get used, do you think?
We defend.
What does that mean though for these Marines if they were to land in Clark Island?
Just read what happened in Vietnam. I hope that with them prevailed and diplomacy prevails
on the other side, they understand that those who drag them into this war can drag them into
also a quackmire for them.
The government still seems in control here, but while the new Supreme Leader's face may
be everywhere, he's not been seen yet.
Have you seen him?
Is he okay?
Is he well?
Any information about his health?
I'm not into business of speculation.
You know that, you know, we are just working by facts.
He's healthy, he's in charge and he's doing whatever is supposed to be done by him.
Why haven't we seen him?
Because the war is happening and because the moment that he or his office decides to do
that, they will do that.
Across the capital, across the country, Israeli and American airstrikes are leaving deep scars.
Whole buildings are raised from the map.
This is what's so called...
Yeah, where's Bibi bro?
I don't care.
He might be dead.
i don't give a shit
i'm not shia i'm not iranian
i am however aware that whether he's dead or alive doesn't change the dynamic at all
as far as like iran's ability to continue waging this war
you know what i mean that's why it's like kind of funny that these guys are like well
Is he dead? Is he gay? Is he alive but a homosexual? Who cares man?
Are you eating the fucking Shahad drones? Are your buildings and your military bases hungry for
Shahad drones or not? That's what I care about. Who cares if he's fucking dead?
If you're an American this conversation is utterly irrelevant.
Seriously, America could just keep decapitating the leadership of Iran over and over again.
The way that their defense system works is this mosaic structure where there's a very
clearly horizontal, decentralized response measure that they've already implemented.
The first I had told, I had told Ali Hamein, his father,
most of Ali Hamein's father, was killed.
And that's when they started pummeling
all these countries in the region.
Smart bombs due to homes next door to their targets.
An apartment left devastated,
its residents did not escape unscathed.
The man who lives here doesn't want to talk on camera,
but he's told us that when the explosion happened,
The blast way is filled as apartment with thick dust and smoke and put his wife and
daughter both in hospital with broken bones and shrapnel wounds.
It gives you a sense really that however precise the munitions that the Israeli Americans
say they're using, they generally always have some kind of impact for those living
around wherever they're targeting.
Many have fled the capital, those who remain try to carry on as best they can.
In the market they are shopping for the Persian New Year at the end of the week. Some prepared
to share their fears and concerns.
It's very unsettling. Nobody can predict what's going to happen next. We want the
war to be over soon. Nobody knows how the situation will develop.
It's extremely awful. Nobody is buying anything and I can't do anything about it.
This is not good at all. It's not normally like this before New Year.
What's striking is that things are carrying on as normal as much as they can,
even though the war is happening. But there is a tension, not just because of the war,
but also because of the protests, the unrest that happened in the weeks before the war
that were so brutally suppressed. A lot of people won't speak on camera,
They're saying things like the situation is terrible, business is awful.
And one man said to us that whatever happens during the war, he hopes when it's over, things can change for the better.
But with no sign of de-escalation from either side and no sign of diplomacy,
the prospect of this being over soon seems dismal and distant.
Dominic Waghorn, Sky News, Tehran.
Over the look right of Iran assassinated Satan YAHOO, I mean it wouldn't change much from like the Israeli calculation because those guys are crazy. Like the country demands this death and destruction.
So I don't think it would like cause Israelis to pull back or anything. It would murder him.
Because he's still like someone of a polarizing figure individually. His actions are are
Very popular as far as like waging these wars.
But, um, Israeli foreign policy wouldn't necessarily change, but I think people would love Iran.
Like I think, I think people would open up banners to the IRGC, to the Ayatollah, uh,
to most of Bahamina, like there would be, the third world would absolutely erupt in
enjoy a celebration, 100, 1000%.
That's what I think.
It wouldn't change much in Israel though.
Some people are saying they'd use nukes.
I don't know if they'd use nukes for that, but I think they're more likely to use nukes
if like their defenses diminished so much that like Iran and Hezbollah were able
destroy many buildings. This is all that's left of a medical center in Burj Kallawai in
Southeast Lebanon. A smouldering mass of rubble hit by an Israeli airstrike that
killed 12 medical workers inside. Oh, the air is still thick with smoke. The
building has been completely destroyed. And look here, boxes of medicine and pills,
medical files everywhere, you get a sense of how enormous the blast here must have been.
On Friday night, it was set ablaze, killing nearly the entire medical team.
They were doctors, paramedics and nurses. Their job to respond to the injured in
nearby villages. One of their colleagues was outside.
I heard the very loud whistle of the missile and suddenly a very bright orange light in
front of us. So we knew right away they'd hid the center. We rushed in and started
searching for the martyrs.
The UN has confirmed all 12 people killed were health workers. They were having dinner
when the missile came without warmth.
They had nowhere to hide.
We've just come round the back and look.
Four floors completely blown apart.
This building is a shell and a reminder there
that this is still very much an active zone.
We're hearing out going fire here from Lebanon.
It feels a very dynamic, very dangerous part
of the world right now.
The Lebanese Ministry of Health has accused the Israeli government of criminal conduct.
They say 32 medical workers have been...
I mean, they're Nazis, man.
They're Nazis. They're not held accountable.
But like, if you're confused, well, a couple things.
One, if you're wondering why, and I haven't even gotten to this part of the story yet,
American attitudes towards Israel shifting so dramatically in an irreparable manner.
Israel is totally lost.
The messaging war and as I always say, this is the most popular.
You mean Hamas?
You can't be sick.
Dog, we're talking about Lebanon.
We're talking about Lebanon, man.
I'm joking.
They'll say Hamas Ministry of Health.
Oh, okay.
Anyway, the point is this is why Israel has like lost the messaging war
No one fucking believes them anymore whenever they come out with whatever bullshit statement and also this is part of the reason why
Israel's
Sorry Israel's unlimited cruelty of this sort has created a unique environment where like people find themselves
unironically, more simply than they ever would be to American foreign adversaries.
Like, I never could have imagined covering a war against Iran for 40, which has been declared
America's number one enemy for 47 years for ridiculous reasons. And I would have 42,000
people in here listening to what I have to say. And with very few, with very few instances
where people go, I don't know if I agree with that, like things have changed, things have
changed quite dramatically. This is a real attitude shift. I know we occupy our little
space on the corner of the internet, but it has been really interesting because even
in comparison to how I spoke about Palestinian resistance right after October 7 and spoke
about Israel right after October 7, the overwhelming majority of this community was like, no,
crazy. I'm not ready to hear this at all. They were not ready to hear any kind of humanizing
perspective that talked about the actual victims of 80, the 80 years of settler,
colonial occupation that Palestinians were subjected to. Whereas now the plight of the
Palestinians hasn't just made people aware of Israel's unlimited violence, it has unlocked
their consciousness in a way that I think is quite significant in a way that many of you
now who might not have been receptive to my message, which is just an accurate reflection
of events and an understanding of history from the perspective of victims, many of
you that would not have been open-minded to what I had to say on October 8, are now actually
listening and have a very different attitude. You have a very, you have a much more open
mind to listening to the plight of those who are dispossessed, the plight of those
Those who are oppressed by the American Empire, Lamau, tell us more, Mr. Israel Intelligent
isn't great.
Are you unironically trying to defend Israeli intelligence in the big 226?
Is that what this is?
Dog, this is Israeli intelligence.
this is what massage does nowadays is like come in to my fucking chat and
annoy me and I'd be like oh there he's kaya you are dog abuser why do you not
shock kaya more shock kaya you are almost on my life is the most fucking
wash country on the planet, dude. Oh my God. There is literally not not a more wash country.
I mean, seriously, they're so fucking wash. They got like asthma go doing propaganda.
They're so cooked. And the best they can do is as we go being like, yeah, wires, wire
people's why do people care so much about Israel? I think like eventually people are going to get
fatigued. I think people are inevitably going to get fatigued by Israel.
Yeah, I mean this is what I've been saying for years at this point. This is the most popular
Israel will ever be in the United States. Tomorrow, Israel will be less popular than it is today.
Something to remember for all the Jewish advocacy awards that keep tying themselves to the genocidal
entity killed so far in this conflict and this area is at the very heart of it seven
miles from the border the clinic here is part of Hezbollah's network of social services
They are trying to create a false narrative that everything connected to Hezbollah is
military.
The medical centers and financial centers are being used to pollute the image of the resistance.
Donate to their live YouTube channel Monagotche Beirut.
Do not worry is doing, do not worry Park is doing a Beirut charity.
Thank you for informing me chatter.
are dying, civilians to hundreds of thousands are displaced. Are you willing to continue
to fight despite their exposure?
The medical workers over here, as well as the firefighters, are here to rescue the people
that are being attacked and injured by the Israeli missiles and aggression. And this
is their natural right to stay in their lands.
Hasbulla wants us to see this. That's obvious from the number of journalists that they've
invited. They're not just fighting on the front line, they're also fighting a PR battle.
But the IDF insists that they are using medical centres like this and ambulances for military
purposes. Whatever the truth though, it is a... Yeah, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
come on. You keep saying Israel lost a messaging war. What you are not contending with is that
the messaging doesn't even matter anymore because this is now the new norm. What they
didn't Gaza, they are now doing 11 of them with zero repercussions that are any kind of
pushback from anyone. No meaningful consequence. You must realize this by now. Yeah. Um, then
we move the conversation to the next phase, which is that at the domestic level, we don't
have real democracy. Okay. That's it. I know there are still many hills to climb,
hurdles to overcome. But what good or what productivity do you derive from this statement?
You know? I know I'm aware that their betting public opinion doesn't matter as long as the
leadership of the GOP and the Democratic Party are with them. Congressional dem leaders seem
happy to ignore voter sentiment on this one issue just as Biden-Harris team ignored it
to keep the arms transfers going.
The question I have for you guys is,
why are you looking for reasons to quit?
Okay, our voices don't matter for now.
Okay, if your voices were completely irrelevant in this conversation,
Israel would not have spent billions of fucking dollars
every single year to ensure that you were kept pliant, to ensure that you got the proper social conditioning and the social learning to think that Israel was actually the most consequential, most moral ally of the United States of America.
It's that fucking simple.
Of course it matters.
Of course broad awareness matters.
Are you out of your fucking mind?
in mind, take it from someone who's been doing this for years.
This change has been unbelievably fast.
The next step in this battle, because the awareness initiative is not done, there are
still Americans who fuck with Israel.
We got to work on them every single day.
But then on top of that, Israel's foreign lobbyist arm, APAC, and its million different
subsidiaries are still actively trying to destroy the process of democracy in this country.
They're still petitioning the government to take stringent action against naysayers.
They're still aggressively dominating American politics.
They're still going.
So now the goal is to fight back against that, right?
The goal is to increase awareness into the many different ways that Israel is engaging
in a whole bunch of trickery to deny the democratic results of the population by confusing people
in the primary system, confusing them to not vote for anti-Israel candidates when that's
clearly their goal, right? To make it seem as though that there is no democratic desire
from the population to decouple from Israel when there very clearly is one.
It's already working and that's precisely the reason why pro-Israel and Israel first Democrats
And pro-Israel and Israel first Republicans well mostly Democrats
We're always don't give a shit, but most of these Democrats are now talking about oh, I will never take a pack money
I'll take money from the same a pack donors. I'll still be pro-Israel, but I won't
Take a pack money. Oh here here
Look
Here I am talking to the wonderful Michael Jamal Brooks. This was I believe seven years ago
to go. Rest in power to Michael Brooks.
I'm shocked that I haven't been reported to the ADL thus far, but probably because the
platforms that I routinely criticize Israel on have actual partnerships with the, with
lobbyists and the state of Israel and literally routinely take down Palestinian, like pro-Palestinian
Facebook groups and also censor my videos that, and like this is not a conspiracy
like they literally censor my videos that I've done on Israel.
So that's probably why the ADL hasn't caught wind of my perspective,
even though they are both good and bad at times.
But I think they overreact a little bit when it comes to the criticism of Israel is the same as anti-Semitism.
Anti-Semitism is a totally real thing.
And also, and you know, and to me, like, one of the reasons that I'm very wary of the misuse
and cynical deployment of wokeness and this and that to advance bad politics is because
this is the shit that I grew up arguing about, about Israel. You know what I mean? When I would
say like, hey, like, of course, I know nobody should be harmed. We're not talking about
attacks on Israeli civilians or anything like that. We're talking about justice and rights
and democracy and freedom of movement for everybody there, period. And people hit me back
with like, yeah, but if you ever been there and been in that community and did this and this
and this and this identity shit? No. Fuck that. No.
I was watching interview with Son David Michael Brooks years ago and in his son mentioned
how the ADL didn't know him yet. Little did he know almost six, seven years ago. Years
later he become the CEO's number one focus.
I quit watching Uncle Sam after Emma started she's insufferable you're so wrong.
You're so wrong.
Emma actually, I think carries Michael Brooks's torch very well.
Emma is awesome.
And it has been wonderful seeing her grow as well.
I think she was definitely a lot more lived up initially.
She is, dude, she is so, so aggressively calling out Israel on a day on a daily basis.
That's crazy. Emma's ideological journey has been wonderful. That was a wild thing to say.
It's crazy to hear that. The fire that started in the ship's main laundry area last Thursday
by the time it was over, more than 600 sailors and crew members had lost their beds and have
since been bunking down on floors and tables.
Oh, that's crazy.
That's funny.
Oh, what do you say to that?
All right, thanks, Kate, and all the candidates, we're going to get to the Illinois primary
election that's taking place tomorrow.
Yes, our military's dicks are hard, but so are their betting situations currently.
Let's be real.
Oh, here.
This is funny.
series of White House meetings, American oil executives delivered a bleak message to Trump
officials in recent days. The energy crisis the Iran war has unleashed is likely to get
worse. This is why I said, for the record, this is why I said, even the capital owning
class is not like fully on board with this. Because like, at least, like this wasn't
a quote. This wasn't a point of concern when we invaded Iraq, right? This was actually welcomed
in the invasion of Iraq was welcomed. Oh yeah, we'll piece it up, right? We'll piece up Iraq.
It's no longer in the hands of the state. We can take advantage of it. We will extract
it ourselves is awesome. These are the guys who are supposed to make big money out
of this. Except their oil tankers are kind of stuck too. And they also have a piece
of the extraction of like Saudi Aramco, for example, like it's their companies that are
also playing a role in extracting oil from this area that Iran is effectively shut off.
So it actually hurts them a little bit as well, especially because their assets are
getting hit, right? This is another reason why the Iranian escalation ladder directly
strikes at the heart of capital, which, again, very valuable lesson for anyone that's listening,
any government that's listening, any country that's listening, any group that's listening.
This is a very important lesson. You strike at capital and you make America listen, okay?
That's why work stoppages are very important. It's the most effective tool in the toolbelt
of labor, okay? Because every single one of those guys that you're seeing on that photo
is still very much a servant to the interests of capital, okay? So when a raw strikes like
an Amazon data center, that hurts the Amazon bottom line. That causes the Amazon lobbyist
to make phone calls to people in Trump's orbit to be like, what the fuck are you
guys doing deal with this now, right? That has secondary impacts. When they say
we're threatening American banks in the Gulf, that hurts the interests of capital.
Once again, finance capital this time around. It's a reminder that things
would be better, and they could continue doing trade in the ways that they want to if they
were to get the president to stop fucking blowing up Iran.
It's a dumb lack of capital is ultimately what led to the fall of the government.
The heat lack capital, it's not that Iran has capital, it's that Iran has the power
to disrupt flows of commerce and disrupt capitalist interest in a very important region.
Do you understand?
Global capitalism requires stability.
It also requires imperialism, but there's a balance that you need to strike.
That's why you don't fuck up the bag too hard.
Striking Iran at the behest of Israel is fucking up the bag too hard.
You understand?
Can you explain what you mean by target the banks?
Iran has threatened to blow up American banks in the Gulf region within striking
distance.
We're going to get to the Cuba situation in a second.
It's also one of those things where like, if they were to do damage to profit centers
without actually harming civilians, with like limited damage to, you know, civilian life,
who the fuck in the United States of America or anywhere else for that matter is gonna
be like, wait a minute, the interests of city group, like, hold on now.
My uncle's name is city.
I'm city group.
I'm Mr. city group.
Why are you attacking me?
You see what I mean?
There's motherfuckers in my chat being like, please strike Mohella.
Like Ayatollah, please.
Supreme Leader of Iran, please.
My heart is yours.
Take out my student loan debt, really.
Take out my student loan debts, please.
Joe Biden couldn't do it, but if you do it, my heart and soul for the IRGC.
Because these are forces that oppress the ordinary people, right?
Who the fuck's going to defend them?
Also, here's additional assessment. US intelligence assessment says, Iran's regime likely to remain
in place for now. We can but more hardline. And with powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard
Corps security forces exerting greater control. Oh no, who could have foreseen this? Who could
have seen this coming? And this is funny, though. The fire that broke out, dude, it
lint in the laundry room has taken out 600 beds, lit it on fire.
So the war efforts are going really well.
Also, over 3.2 million Iranis displaced in the last two weeks, over 800,000 Lebanese
displaced in the last two weeks, over 2 million Palestinians displaced in Gaza into the West
Bank since October 7, all in the service of one country and its genocidal neocolonial
project.
A report published by David Vine at Brown University conservatively estimated that at least five million people have been displaced in Iran, Gaza, Lebanon, and the West Bank's October 7th, a mass displacement event to the tune of 31 billion in American tax dollars.
Oh, this is funny.
Um, Iran's governing structure isn't a one-man show. It's a system. It's so dude
The Iranian weapons have been striking American facilities so hard
It caused CNN to learn how the fucking Iranian governance works
like
It is it is incredible how stupid the average person is but it's also remarkable how stupid like the average
analyst is as well, where they just have no interest whatsoever in learning how these countries
work.
And that's unironically part of the reason why these guys were dumb enough to think, oh,
if we just do a decapitation, like it's over, right?
They're like, yeah, Ayatollah was sitting in a fucking room hitting the red button
every time to blow up American targets, like they're by their estimation, I guess.
When they heard that he's the supreme leader, they thought he literally was making final
decisions on everything, and that there is no way the government works at all.
The first wave of the military campaign against Iraq killed the long-serving supreme leader,
but the regime is still operating as designed.
Its governing structure is unlike any other political system in the world.
Unlike Iraq or Syria, where taking down the head of the regime made the whole system
collapse.
Iran is structured for longevity the Iranian political system is not a one-man show
It is a system President Trump told the Iranian people to take over your government. It will be yours to take
Update Israel says displaced Lebanese people won't be allowed to return home gosh
I'm sure there's a term for this I can't put my finger on it. Yeah, it's called ethnic cleansing and ethnic displacement
That's precisely what it is, and that's what's precisely happening here as well.
Fantastic.
But that's more complicated than it sounds. Effectuating regime change in Iran
will depend on big structural change, or even collapse.
Here's how Iran built its government to sustain attack.
Stream the full version of this story.
Yeah. CNN is surprised to know that countries in the global south have advanced systems of government and are not savage tribes living in jungles.
Yeah. I saw this. I don't know what the fuck's going on here. I need to look into it a little bit further.
I know that you guys are, first of all, it's gross to immediately run to celebrate this as a weapon to wield against Daniel Biss or some shit.
Okay, it's ridiculous. Calm down. Dale, based candidate for Illinois 9 and tomorrow's election
has been accused of having an inappropriate relationship with a student during his tenure
as a professor at the University of Chicago. Megan, watch, press. Now a Stanford law lecturer
says she was that student. I know everyone's annoyed at how Illinois 9 is dominating her
fees, but I get the special bespoke annoyance that 20 years ago, one of the candidates
decided it was really cool idea to date his undergrad student, me, until, wait,
No, it isn't, which is, as you expect, an unpleasant memory.
Watts Press then shared in the New York Times essay,
what's wrong with 16 professors and students saying she
wished she had read it when she was 17 rather than 37?
If he's going to, Megan says, if he's
going to get a national profile on the strength
of a younger woman's campaign, I'm
going to come out and say it.
During a short-lived tenure as a math professor,
based on an inappropriate romantic relationship
with one of his undergraduate students.
I was that student.
It took becoming a professor myself
to realize the implications,
what it means to be attracted to someone
who categorically is less power than you.
I don't know if it's disqualifying,
but there are too many women not getting a platform
as a result of behavior like this for me not to say something.
I know everyone's annoyed at how Illinois 9
is dominating our feeds,
but I get the special bespoke annoyance
that 20 years ago, one of the candidates decided
it was a really cool idea to date
one of his undergrad students, me,
until wait no it isn't which is as you might expect an unpleasant memory. Anyhow
just gonna plug this which I wish I had read when I was 17 rather than 37. That
was three days ago when she wasn't ready to say his name.
It's, I mean, look, these things are, these are complex situations.
It takes a lot of toll on the person to come out and reveal this information.
I'm just saying that, like, you know, I don't, my policy on this stuff is to not
reflexively disbelieve the accuser, but instead, to make sure that you get proper verification.
Is that simple? Okay. That's it. As it stands currently, I have no tools to accurately make
an assessment on the veracity of this claim. But I'm sure that there are some
Enterprising reporters out there who would, you know, probably verify, yeah, trust but verify.
Especially considering that this is like an accessible person, right?
Revolutionary liberal, always trust women.
Oh, God.
This was the number one thing with MeToo that people like genuinely didn't understand.
before me to, and even after me to, let's be real, the common societal attitude in our patriarchal construct is that we reflexively disbelieved women, okay?
I have no reason to believe that this is fake, that this is a fake allegation.
And the argument always, the like educated statement here, when people said believe women,
was not to believe women outright across the board unconditionally that women have no capacity
to lie at any point or whatever. It's just to not disbelieve women immediately and not
engage in victim blaming, which is what was happening, okay?
That's it.
She said Religia, which means she was active in it and whilst inappropriate and probably could and should have gotten him fired is not illegal undergrad is not the same thing as underage power dynamic. No, I think she says she's 37 now and might have been 17.
So yeah, I think she was undergrad and also underage. So a twofer.
No, those is the title of the article, oh, did I misunderstand it?
I think she's, no, I think she's 37 right now.
She said I wish I read this when I was 37 and not when I was 17.
Anyhow, just gonna plug this, which I wish I had read when I was 17 rather than 37.
matches up 20 years ago.
Now she's just saying she wished she read it when then not that she was 17 at the time. She's probably 19
I don't know
If she is 37 years old right now and this happened 20 years ago as she says here then she would be 17
It's just I don't know what you guys are confused by
I think 37 minus 20 equals 19 correct me if I'm wrong. Yeah, that's how it works.
Anyway, the point is like this would be a part of the verification process for any sort
of enterprising journalist, any sort of investigative reporter.
I don't know how old she is, for example.
Someone could find out how old she is and then tie it back to 20 years ago, figure
out when they cross verify when she actually went to Stanford, was Daniel Biss actually
a reporting on it? If the account is who she claims to be, she's a professor of law at Stanford.
Okay, sorry, she didn't even go to, it wasn't at Stanford, it was a different, she's at Stanford now.
But this was in the University of Chicago.
But what's wrong with sex between professors and students?
It's not what you think.
She's 42 now, the article's from 5 years ago, so she was 37 when the article came out.
Ugh. Anyway.
Regardless, like, the allegation that she's putting out there is that even if she wasn't
underage, that she, like, very clearly was taken advantage of in an inappropriate power
dynamic if her allegations are are substantiated. And I have no reason to believe that she's
like just throwing random fake accusations out there out of nowhere.
Yeah, hopefully someone investigates a little bit further.
Daniel Biss was a professor at Ushkago from 2002 to 2008.
She was born in 1984, meaning she was between 18 and 24.
We'll talk about like in a second. Oh, this is what I was talking about as far as like
striking the heart of capital. This is kind of the Berlin Wall collapse photo of the hub
and spoke and hub and spoke airline economy. And to some extent all intercontinental
travel. How do you come back from this? Right? And Matt Petty says, it's kind of crazy
how many economic eggs the master of the universe put in the golf basket while also nursing
an insane hostile obsession with the golf's next door neighbor.
And they told themselves that the former was actually serving the latter.
Donald Trump also said a former U.S. president told him in a private conversation on the
raw strikes, I wish I did what you did.
Trump declined the name of the ex-leader.
Was it George W. Bush?
No.
I don't want to say Trump said in the oval
It was not Bill Clinton former president spokesperson tells me maybe it's fucking Joe Brandon. I
Don't think it would be Obama
It was Obama now, I don't
But what are you talking about why the fuck would Barack Obama tell Donald Trump?
I wish I bombed Iran when Donald Trump's like when Donald Trump literally destroyed his
his signature accomplishment, which was the opposite of bombing Iran, and actually unironically
moving the region in the direction of stability and peace.
infinitely more likely than it was Bill Clinton or Joe Biden.
He probably also made that up anyways, I mean I could see, yeah, that's the other thing
Donald Trump could just be lying too. Like I wouldn't put it past them. Oh my God. I forgot to show you guys
the best defense of of the Iranian war effort.
Hassan Abiyour, welcome for us, letting you stream Scott Besant. Thank you, Scott Besant.
This is the best things are going so well and you can really you can really sense how well
things are going because you and I mean specifically you the press specifically you the press
core because you cheer against Trump so hard it's like in your DNA and in your blood to
cheer against Trump, because you want him not to be successful so bad.
You have to cheer against the efficacy of these strikes.
You have to hope, maybe they weren't effective.
Maybe the way the Trump administration's representative isn't true.
So let's take half truths, spun information, leaked information, and then spin it.
Spin it in every way we can to try to cause doubt and manipulate the public mind over
or whether or not our brave pilots were successful.
How many stories have been written about
how hard it is to, I don't know, fly a plane for 36 hours?
Has MSNBC done that story as Fox?
Have we done this story, how hard that is?
Have we done it two or three times
so that American people understand
how about how difficult it is to shoot a drone
from an F-15 or 16 or F-22 or F-35?
Or what it's like to man a Patriot battery?
Or how hard it is to refuel midair,
giving the American people an understanding of how complex and sophisticated this mission
really was.
There are so many aspects of what our brave men and women did that by because of the hatred
of this press corps are undermined because your people are trying to leak and spin
that it wasn't successful.
It's irresponsible.
And folks in this room are privy to that information because of the proximity here
in the Pentagon.
It's important responsibility and time to time again class, you know, he's knocking back
a few before these, right?
Like he must be.
This is so awesome.
He's literally crying and doing the same thing that Trump did after the bombing campaigns
in the 12 day war.
If you remember, he was like, you're not yelling at me.
You're yelling at our beautiful female bomber pilots.
How dare you, how dare you say that we are incompetent, we in the command center are incompetent.
When you yell at us for being fucking belligerent bloodthirsty fools, you're actually calling
the boys and girls that have taken up arms to defend this nation, fools.
This fight information is leaked or peddled for political purposes to try to make the president
look bad.
And what's really happening is you're undermining the success of incredible B2 pilots and incredible
F-35 pilots and incredible refuelers and incredible air defenders who accomplished their
mission set back a nuclear program in ways that other presidents would have dreamed.
How about we celebrate that?
it's so awesome. No, it's going, it's going crazy. It's going crazy style. Mission success.
How about we talk about how special America is that we only we have these capabilities?
I think it's too much to ask, unfortunately, for the fake news. So we're used to that.
But we also have an opportunity to stand at the podium and read the truth of what's really
happening. And the reality is you want to call it destroyed. You want to call it defeated.
You want to call it obliterated? Choose your word. This was an historically successful attack.
We should celebrate it as Americans. And again, when you say I'm drunk, you're not saying I'm drunk
as the Secretary of War. What you're saying is our beautiful F-35 bomber pilots are drunk.
And that's really fucked up. When you call me Pete Hegze, Secretary of War,
or a alcoholic rapist, what you're actually saying is our beautiful F-35 bomber pilots
are alcoholic rapists.
Huh?
What do you think about that?
Guess what?
That would really hurt their feelings, okay?
It's a chance to have peace, chance to have a deal, and an opportunity to prevent a nuclear
Iran, which is something President Trump talked about for 20 years.
because I'm drunk right now and may or may not have actually paid a victim off to silence
her in the submission after doing a violent sexual assault doesn't change that reality.
Are you calling?
Look at this flag.
Look at this flag behind me right now.
Are you saying that the person who knitted this flag is also a drunk rapist?
Huh?
How dare you?
years. It's wonderful that that is just another clear cut sign. Another clear cut indication
that the war efforts are going very well. Okay.
Reporter, do you have a comment on the six service members who died last week?
Oh, updates for the last hour back to Bonser Berry more CRAM fight firing over Baghdad
Oil field in Erbil is under attack missiles and drones in Dubai Saudi Erbil Bahrain in Israel IRGC
announces the targeting of shake issa and al daphras bases with cruise missiles
Please check out eggs this post. Oh, I saw this one. Yeah, I don't know who need to hit us
You know what I'm saying, I see a lot of people be talking shit about America, if you don't
like America, you're a cattle bro, straight up.
America, go to another country bitch.
I love this country.
Some of the most propagandized people on the planet, once again, straight up, like this
is, this is, this is what I mean, America cattle.
I'm trying to protect this bitch.
By the way, I have noticed something.
There's a lot of propaganda on Twitter of specifically black and brown active duty service
members.
Have you guys noticed that too?
Like a lot of like dancing videos of like, oh, we're going to Iran like, oh, we're going
to blow it up all this shit.
And it's almost always black and brown service members.
What the fuck is that?
Are they doing like a, are they pulling like an IDF, like they're trying to wokify American
imperialism?
Is that what it is?
10 to 15 years more and these boomers will die off and they're cooked, cooked?
No, that's not going to, you know, you can't rely on that.
Yeah, a lot of black women, like a lot of, a lot of black women in the military, I
saw I saw that one where this lady was like oh I signed on like I bought my first house because
I'm you know active duty like there was another one where like these these girls were dancing
at the base
well even if the black folks are loving it that we must be right as pose I mean kind of
Are the benefits really that good? Fuck no. No, it's a lie. Yeah, they did this too.
Look, look, another version of this. These are old too. A lot of these are older
videos. I've seen this video before.
I've seen this. This is the older video that they're resurfacing and so is
this one. Steak, capri salad, asparagus underneath, garlic bread that I already been into, lobster,
hush puppies, a baked potato under this. Steak, that's pretty good. Capri salad, so good. Asparagus,
baked potato and striped peas. Lobster. Not so good. Hush puppy. Garlic bread. This
might be my favorite thing. Shrimp cocktail. Bay fruit salad. Mango is so good.
They get to eat this every day, right? Now it's the last time they get to eat it.
When you're in the military, you get to eat this one time.
Yeah, you can eat it after you get out of the military. Okay, that's also not true. You get
it you you get it before deployment it's a little bit like the last supper to
booze morale
lieutenant muck bang because there's an actual fruit salad like nuts blueberries
and like some kind of cream on it oh it's like cinnamon
Pocon pie. Oh my gosh. Not bad for my mom's but it's pretty good. White cake. This is
the good frosting too. Chocolate cake. Oh, she's soft. My gosh, bro. This is so good.
You know I gotta get my Stanley girl? Of course. Alright girl, time to get back to work.
And my work, I mean an ice cream party.
So I hope, yeah, this isn't new.
The military has been putting up billboards and advertising black neighborhoods forever.
They target black people.
Yeah, it's not new.
It's not new at all.
Hello.
Someone just got groomed.
Little lady just got groomed.
So that's not new at all.
It is known that the American military is exceptionally predatory in their targeting,
in their targeting of black and brown neighborhoods, impoverished neighborhoods in general.
And I mean, we saw it in action, right? When we went to the block party in the south side,
like the Marines were there, they had like the army was there, they were recruiting little kids.
It's very very indecent but this defect has staked lobster.
I'll just take a lobster.
Alright, I'm here indecent.
I'll do it.
I'm going to war.
I'm going to war.
I might have to double it.
I had to run it back.
I had to run it back.
So, yeah, there's there was also this this is what I was talking about as well
It doesn't even look like good steak. Yeah, of course it's ass, but it doesn't matter when you're eating it's better than fucking MRE's and all the other dogs you normally eat
You know what I mean
I
Yeah, he's still
Fentcom fact check
Cent com is claiming all serves me and get freshly cooked lobster and steak meals lie

Beef taco filling.
So getting beef.
Stay with beans.
Chicken noodles and vegetables and sauce.
Alba macaroni and tomato sauce.

For the beef and barbeque sauce.
Oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's better than these guys all 100%
People in the military dancing to an AI diss track about Iran
Beats we did, world one one and we did World one two, beats we'll do this shit again
I ran, we ain't scared of you, no, what the fuck do y'all stay?
We ain't never heard of you, we send troops at your dump, beat you, no, we purging
someone just edited that audio over an old video these videos read as satire no they
I mean I can see that being an older video but it is kind of weird is kind of weird right
like do you see what I mean like it's always black women what the fuck is up with that
Is that like a PSYOP?
Well, what is this?
It's always,
like, is this an IDF technique?
Is that what it is?
Is Big Yahoo really dead?
When is the celebration?
Big Yahoo doesn't appear on official panels.
Son has been tweeting almost a week,
continuously post videos that are
immediately debunked as AI.
Yeah, he's dead, dead, Lamal.
Here we continue in a row.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Good.
Good.
Good.
Good.
What is this?
Israeli.
Israeli.
bro do they got the best AI because like how is this AI like people are saying
this is AI I saw that he is a disappearing ring like look he has a
ring in his finger look watch this ring is gone but I think it's just
artifacting like I think
old footage from Kobe they got masks on no dude you know of course Benjamin and Yahoo's
guard uh he's like closest security always wears a mask have you guys never seen like
Mossad agents always wear a mask people in the IDF also that do war crimes always wear
a mask it's not from f***ing COVID the the mask thing is normal
but yeah people were saying like he has a ring on this finger right here look
look he has a ring on the finger
and then it's gone but i don't know if it's like actually gone or if the video just like
like, like due to artifacting or something, or maybe like due to a filter, it could be
a reason why people wear masks regularly.
Yeah, the fucking IDF is not wearing masks for COVID related reasons.
Oh my God, why are the COVID conscious like this?
It's so weird to me that every time the math conversation comes up, someone who's COVID
conscious has to immediately be like, no, actually, people do still wear masks.
Yes, they do.
But this is not the reason why you think they're wearing masks.
Okay? They're wearing masks because they want to hide their identities.
It's not because they have fucking long COVID. Shut the fuck up.
I know COVID still exists. Oh my God.
I understand that.
There's a difference here.
Ice agents, for example, don't wear masks because of COVID.
Ice agents wear masks because they want to hide their identity.
We all should wear masks for both reasons. Why because one long COVID and two because we're fucking IDF murderers and
Don't want to be charged in the future for war crimes. What do you mean? We all should wear masks for both reasons
It's so strange
Yeah, see his ring is back. Yeah, I think it's just like a weird artifact thing in the video.
I think it's made people go crazy, Mo. The skin texture and camera depth of the field
hello weird maybe not ai is a weird ass video dude it's like ai can be a completely made up
completely made up incident or it could just be like ai causing these kinds of weird things
because they edited it with AI.
This doesn't mean it's AI.
It's most likely either a filter or artifacting.
I don't think this video is proof that he's dead.
Was even crazier that this was never a question two years ago?
Yeah, I mean, technology has improved dramatically, and it's breaking people's brains, I think.
And it's not even I think, I know, I know it is.
What is this dog he might be dead?
really trying to, I had told the AI post to fight back.
I'm sure that the time the most out of the season
My shot
Hassan brain is bye bye
It's not proved to he's fucking he's there he's there, but it's definitely a why would he be in the fucking country's ever and I don't know
I think him not attending the the one like war council meeting that was weird his son
His son not tweeting even though he's a prolific tweeter. That's weird
But all this other shit is just like frying people's brains and they think everything is AI
Okay, dude
Okay, dude
This all feels like some blue sky hysteria to breach containment. Yeah, Zoomers don't know,
but before allegations of AI we had this. Does Hillary have a body double? Bizarre conspiracy
theory claims to be pneumonia sugar in Canada has been replaced by a look alike. Yeah. We
We all know that you are a propaganda agent for the motherland Israel.
Yeah.
I mean, he could not be attending the fucking meetings because he's literally in another
country.
Right?
I just, I don't know.
Then yeah, okay.
Adam Cochran has some crazy takes from time to time.
monitor in a cafe video shows 2024 as of date. No, no, it didn't. No, it actually showed 2016.
I mean, not 2016, 2026. You're wrong on that too. This is not correct. Bro, what are you talking
about? Like, did he film this in 2024? Like, oh, people are saying I'm dead in 2024. Like,
some of you guys literally make up more insane claims in order to to to feed into this conspiracy.
Like this is when you realize this is when you have to realize that you're in too deep. Okay.
But again, in the last few days, there's been a flurry of viral rumors on various social media
networks claiming that the Israeli prime minister is dead. Talk us through what people
that's right Sharon so I think it's good that people are suspicious I think it's
a good thing that people are this suspicious of AI I know it's not a good
thing because sometimes like in this case you will literally be led astray by
assumptions by assumptions that like something that is you know actually real
video something that's a real video that could cast away doubt is is
considered AI because it doesn't correspond to your bias. Social media has
been ablaze this weekend with viral conspiracy theories that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu was killed in an Iranian missile strike. According to Reuters, these rumors
even were broadcast by Iranian state media. Here's a couple of examples that I saw racking
up views over the weekend it was often shared.
I have a suspicion that these Iran news accounts are also maybe Israeli run. I think, or
or maybe I'm wrong, but I think these guys are going to all flip randomly.
It's so strange how many of them propped up.
So many of these Iran news accounts have propped up out of fucking nowhere.
It could be just like, you know, Indian bought farms or whatever,
or just trying to make money because they lean in there.
They're very agnostic about everything that's going on.
And they just like lean into whatever the meta is.
Or I think that they are somehow going to work as a Israeli misinformation agent when the time comes.
They're building audiences. They're building some real audiences amongst the pro-Iran side in this conflict.
And that can be a very powerful disinformation agent for like you are ill-informed about AI. I don't think so.
By pro-Iranian accounts and as we can see with little or no sources or quotes to my mom got a puppy.
She's never seen it before.
She loves watching you as to even share fake AI generated images
depicting Netanyahu's body submerged in rubble.
But all of these death rumors were in fact triggered by a press conference
that Netanyahu gave last week on Thursday, a press conference
that internet users are convinced is generated by AI due to the amount
of fingers on his hands.
internet users claim that he has six fingers visible on his hands.
And they say that this six finger theory is in fact what escalated the online
rumors of his death, social media users claiming that the six fingers show that
in fact he is not with us anymore and that Israel is using AI to generate
these press conferences.
We know, of course, that AI does struggle to generate hands.
And sometimes that is a telltale sign of AI usage.
However, I will say that this is a false claim.
I would say that it's an unfortunate screenshot used there that's going viral.
Now, this is the screenshot that is being used and shared on social media,
depicting Netanyahu's sixth finger.
I will say that we, after our 24, we watched the entirety of that around eight
minute broadcast and we found that he did indeed have five fingers on each hand
throughout. We can see the shots before and after five fingers are present.
And in fact, it was around 34 seconds in.
He makes a gesture with his hand and there is a shadow in the crease
his right hand that gives the illusion of a sick finger. Also stay sharing that there was
journalists present at this press conference as well it wasn't closed and so the journalist being
present there that also is another indication that it did in fact take place. And Abedica,
Benjamin Netanyahu has himself responded to these rumours. He has, he has responded to these viral
claims of his death. He posted a video Sunday of himself visiting a coffee shop, a cafe in
Jerusalem a proof of life video if you will he captioned it they say I'm what and in the video he
We see him getting a cup of coffee at the counter
He also shows both of his hands one by one saying count my fingers
If you will you'll see that come up on screen in a minute now
Like a lot of you guys are so crazy
Why how could they have shot this in 2024?
or when he knew exactly what the suspicions in 2026 would be about his fucking fingers.
Look at the pocket of son and moves on his own. Dude, I think a lot of people don't realize
how much AI already works, like how much AI already exists in compressing imagery
in packaging images
like there are always going to be if you look hard enough you'll always find like
weird tweaks
in the footage
it's just
also says uh... in this clip he also uses a pun on the word dead when he picked
up that cup of coffee in he grew slang that means sort of crazy about such
saying I'm dying for coffee or I'm dead for coffee. Now this wasn't the only video that he shared,
he also shared a second quote-unquote proof-of-life video. This one was filmed outside the cafe,
shows Netanyahu greeting cafe-goers, taking pictures with them, we see him approaching
visitors on the terrace etc. So overall two videos posted on the official counts of Benin
and Netanyahu to sort of tackle these death routes. And finally, again not everyone online
has been convinced by these proof of life videos have they? No social media was not convinced
by this appearance of Netanyahu online. Internet users began speculating that that too was created
by AI. They say that the coffee cup was full. We're so cooked. We're so cooked. We're
so incredibly cooked. This entire community that was like up in arms about the kaiyage
Shit, and it's like this is in some ways not dissimilar to that where you like if you look at something hard enough
You can just like imagine fuckery, okay?
I don't think Benjamin. He might be like I
Just don't think he's these are AI videos and that he's dead like I just I think that's
So crazy
People are so goddamn desperate.
I think he doesn't want to be targeted by Iranian ballistics if he does live appearances.
The current I told was probably deep in hiding too.
These stage videos, BB does, makes it seem like he's keeping a low profile and moving
around a lot to make sure Iran doesn't know where he's located.
Yeah, but I don't think it's like fake.
I don't think these videos are like, I don't think these videos are like AI made.
Okay, dude.
the brim on the counter when he picked it up and it remained full to the brim even after he took a sip, which they're called the cafe in the video has been close since the war began dot dot dot that cafe hasn't been open in 35 years
Okay, I'll be back.
Alright.
I was telling Coffee Gates online saying that it's also generated by AI and proof that
he is in fact dead.
It wasn't just the first video that's gaining this kind of scrutiny, that second video
we saw of him outside, that too has generated speculation, users saying that his ring
disappears from his hand when he was greeting people outside.
now we at france twenty four have not found any evidence
also indications of manipulation we did
uh... run it through a i detection tools which told us that is unlikely
generated by a however
okay and detection tools are also dog shit at detecting a i
so that's the
no you just got to use your fucking human brain okay
a i detection tools are also terrible at figuring out whether something is a
I'm not what the fuck are we doing? Oh my god
Oh
It is important to note that AI detection tools are not always 100% accurate especially with AI developing so quickly
So what I will say is that the Instagram account of that cafe that he visited the sataf in Jerusalem,
they posted an Instagram story of Netanyahu's arrival.
They posted this around two hours before he posted his videos on social media.
The cafe also posted a video behind the scenes showing Netanyahu
filming his own video to his own camera as well.
So overall, what we'll say is rather than quell those rumors and squash the rumors of his death
and the theorizing it seems that by putting out these two videos Netanyahu has actually
invited more speculation about its authenticity.
But I just don't think that going for God, we're done.
We're done.
We're done.
We're done.
I don't know if this is like the impact of COVID and how it like collectively fried
the brains of so many people.
I don't know if this is just like in the age of AI, you can't really trust anything.
Like the real impact people perceived, the real problem was people thought that you would
get duped by AI videos, right?
The issue however is now you can all, you also can look at like real videos and assume
is AI. It's so fucked.
Well, end with is this is that there's also been a swell, a speculation of rumors about
whether Iran's new Supreme Leader, Mr Bahamene, whether he's also alive, he's not been seen
in public since the war. I've seen a lot of stuff on social media theorizing about
his death. And this week, it's Netanyahu has claimed to be dead. So online, both users
from each side will push that own narrative in this war and push this information as well.
So I think that shows the importance of fact checking during this time.
Yeah, I don't think those videos are AI.
You don't think it's at all suspicious when he was nowhere to be seen for two weeks?
Yeah, he's a fucking coward dude.
He's hiding in the furor bunker.
Yes, that's why he's nowhere to be seen.
So here's the thing.
Here's the thing.
Governments can kind of figure out
where other heads of state are,
especially if they're in striking distance, okay?
Like, Israel killing Hassan Nasrallah or Israel killing the Ayatollah.
These weren't remarkable instances because of all the surveillance that it took to figure
out exactly where these guys were.
Okay?
The reason why they were remarkable events is because governments know where heads of
state usually are, they just have this unspoken agreement that they don't, you know, assassinate
the head of state. They don't depose the head of state. They don't kidnap a head of state.
They don't assassinate a head of state because other countries can do the same to them.
Now that Israel has broken that seal and assassinated the Ayatollah, Iran could just as easily penetrate
through the Israeli defenses, especially at a time when they're depleting and try to do
a first strike on, not first strike, but a retaliatory assassination strike on Benjamin
and Yahoo.
So he can't go outside that much.
He just cannot go outside that much because obviously there's still Iranian surveillance
and Iranian spies inside of Israel.
Just as there are, you know, Mossad infiltrators and spies in Iran, there are always going
to be Iranian spies in Israel as well.
And, uh, and they could just as easily figure out where fucking Benjamin Indian is if
he is out and about them.
And that's part of the reason why he can't go to an established military council meeting.
That is probably the reason why he's not going to the military meetings.
Anyway, um, APEC foreign lobby, it's all is gay.
this. Yeah, he's just saying maybe we shouldn't be there at all. We have a lot of oil. He said
Oh, she had wronged our hands. Oh, here's Mersheimer. We're not winning against the
red. We're not winning. What message are we sending? We're sending a message that were
a bunch of fools. We started, we started a war we can't win. The FT had a big editorial
today. This is the financial times, which is very sympathetic to the United States and
and the various cockamamie schemes that we come up with.
The Financial Times usually supports us.
They're saying we had no objective, no clear objective.
We didn't have the required military forces
to achieve any of the objectives that we were floating.
And we had no plan.
That's what they say.
And of course they're correct.
Yes.
So the question you wanna ask yourself is,
what does this tell the Chinese?
And what does it tell the Russians?
It tells them that we are incompetent.
And of course, the Russians have had enough dealings
with Steve Wittkopf and Jared Kushner
to fully understand just how we are.
And we should make it very clear
that the Americans have granted Russia sanctions relief
in order to allow more oil into global markets.
Now that presumably represents a windfall
for Vladimir Putin in his campaign against Ukraine.
Europeans must be flabbergasted, John, they're flabbergasted and outraged.
And on top of that, we're burning through, uh, Patriot Missiles, the
pack three Patriot Missiles, which the hats and that's, and that's too.
And the Patriots are what the Ukrainians are begging.
Excuse me.
Yeah.
That the Ukrainians are begging for and, uh, we're.
Yep.
Yeah, it gives Russia a big reprieve and aid in continuing its war efforts.
Just a fucking...
What is this?
E. Fatlo?
Timothy Shalomet?
Well when years from now it's okay to get a war statue.
I'm E. Fatlo.
I'm E. Fatlo.
That's crazy, by the way. The idea that the Oscars famously doesn't give awards to Jewish
people is awesome. Yeah, definitely. Like an industry that famously doesn't have any
Jews in it whatsoever. That's what I think of when I think of Hollywood.
Oh, that's awesome. That's great.
Also, I didn't know Timothy Chalamet was Jewish until this very tweet.
President Donald Trump has spent Sunday calling for the death penalty for reporters covering
his Iran war in a negative manner.
The war must be going really well.
Yeah, it's great.
Yeah, no Jewish people have won an Oscar for 35 years.
Famously
You guys hear other posts about the Oscars
What have you ever damn did with the most elite echo chamber inside the Oscars theater
It's as moderately contemptible as anything Harvey Weinstein did. Oh my god
What the fuck?
saying free Palestine is just like doing mass rapes being a prolific rapist
as a matter of fact being a prolific rapist might be better than saying free
Palestine he signaled that human rights don't matter freedom for 90 million
Iranians don't matter raiding the world the biggest financiers of terrorism
doesn't matter. Blaming it all on the Jewish people is the name of the game. Free Palestine
and resounding applause. A room that had been curated by pushing anyone with decency and common
sense out of sight. The same psychology is behind both men and both collectives. Narcissism
to behave like an entitled gangster. I don't know why I'm turning it into Scottish a little
I mean, I wish a little bit in broad daylight and be protected by an industry of loans who
have convinced themselves that they've evicted the patriarch is a joke.
They have built a new Titanic after the teeth by self congratulatory terrorist apologists.
by them like Weinstein made a fool of himself and everyone in Hollywood anyone next to him
would be shown to infinity if the world was anywhere near saying on the biggest coward
and all of this is the Jew who's protecting him.
Ari Emmanuel.
Yo.
That's crazy.
She called that Ari Emmanuel, chill.
You moron. You moron. Enjoy jihad.
E Barlow on Harvey Weinstein. The worst part is the hypocrisy.
I used to think this impression was exaggerated when I watched a clip of her yesterday and this is 100% your best work.
Yeah. E Fatlow.
Stop, I can't believe it, stop using my hate name. Stop using my hate name. Stop calling
me Eve Fatlow. That's my hate name.
My name is Eve Shatloh, not Eve Fatloh.
It's not brave heart, it's brave fat.
That's right.
Oh.
Manny out. Thank you, Trump for giving me the war on Iran. I've always wanted Maddo. Who
benefits from this war? And then you out. Thank you, Trump for doing this for us. Amazing.
Is it the Gulf States? Yo, right over here, Maddo. Let's look at Carter, dude. Blaming
Qatar for this is insanity. When everyone in Israel is like, thank you so much for
fighting our war for us. You guys are real suckers. It's awesome. Also, Qatar is the
number one terrorism advocate on the planet. They are our number one enemy. We hate them.
They're doing unimaginable amounts of terrorism at the best of Iran. Like the very same guys
that are fucking, Qatar is a punching bag. Yes. Like the very same guys out of all
the Gulf States, you could say this about UAE. Maybe you could say this about Saudi Arabia.
Qatar is the last Gulf state that you can say this about other than like Oman. You know what
I mean? Also, breaking news, but there was a emergency declared, a state of emergency
was declared a banger in airport to allow for the emergency landing of military aircraft,
possibly another refueler. Oh no, they fucking hit another refueler. Ongoing attacks
the US Embassy in the green zone all videos from the fighting UAE closes the airspace
I can't believe the US Embassy has a CRAM on it
it's so crazy
What the fuck? We really are the Terminator nation.
Yeah, just put a burger next to it. CRM on the embassy and a burger.
a piece dude. Oh man. Now imagine what's on the Pentagon. That plan was disintegrated
on 9-11. CRM-Duby Burger Shape. I'm in Baghdad. We heard that ship rip for real. Iraqi militias
were claiming that they hit an aircraft before this emergency was declared on Telegram. Yeah,
I mean, the Iraqi Shias are operating on a fucking different wavelength. I'll be
honest. Was the one, was the one anime Shia, was that real? The one anime Shia that was
martyred? The one that looks like an anime hero? Was that actually real? I never really
investigated it, but I don't know if you guys saw it. The one with the white hair?
He had the most beautiful hair I've ever seen.
lol no that was some Saudi edit bro what are you even talking about okay someone will link
it to me and we can look at it together well fuck her look like gojo yeah israel just killed
the main anime character of Iraqi Shia militias. He will return improved. The hair is definitely
edit? No.
Yeah, you can.
The hair is not fake that's the reason why I wanted you to see this
The hair could very well be real.
I'm gay and Lebanese.
As a Rocky, Demo fucker and one bro, don't be embarrassed.
Don't be embarrassed.
law what the fuck a 20 edits on stream before GTA 6 bro those are a 20s is an inside joke
amongst Iraqis. Anyway, but yeah, as I was saying, the Iraqi she is, they go hard. They
do not fuck around. They've been doing a shit ton of damage. Bernie on the Illinois primers
ignores illinois nine i know i know i know i know i says bernard man what are you gonna
fucking do we just gotta be the change we want to see okay we can't rely on bernard
we can't rely on aoc we can lean on them at times but sometimes you gotta do it yourself
Did you cover the Junaid race earlier or the Taliber Omar endorsements not yet?
Direct hit on US Embassy after Oscars will see right away
Isn't this old?
those are those are like mortars right the brr like each individual one no no
the each individual one like they're deploying what is it like a it's like a
bomb like those aren't those aren't like the things that you're seeing are
tracers but what they're actually shooting out rapidly are explosive
material. It's not like, you know, it's not all they hit the news wires. Oh, okay. They
have hit the, they have hit the top of the embassy before the lights that you're seeing
are tracers, but the, the actual thing that is shooting out is not like, uh, like normal
bullets, it's artillery, right? It's explosive ordnance. There are rounds of proximity charges,
20 millimeter Proximo HE rounds.
It's college debt relief. You can, you can look at it as, yeah, you can look at it as, as some,
some are saying flak, some are saying 20 millimeter explosive rounds, explosive ordnance.
You can just look at that as your college tuition, lighting on fire, you can look at that as your health care, you know, you can look at that as austerity at the home front.
It's wonderful, wonderful use of our wealth.
wealth is a 20 millimeter auto cannon the rounds that may be approximated target if they
miss they auto self-destruct
graphic about CRAM U-HIMBO CRAM has its own radar Iran likely took out an early warning radar or
EW system at the US embassy in Baghdad US air defense system in Baghdad
counter rocket artillery mortar system that's what the CRAM is
Dual antennas, primary Q-band, 360 degree radar, continuing scans for incoming threats.
Forward looking infrared, flora cameras to take the incoming fire.
Fire control secondary radar triggers cannon.
Ammunition is 20 millimeter, multi-purpose tracer, self-destroying.
Price is $27 per round.
Shoot down rate is 60 to 70%.
This is what it looks like.
Nose incendiary, high explosive, round self-destruct before they hit ground, and a tracer.
The M61A1 Vulcan Gatling Rotary Cannon fires between 3,000 to 4,500 rounds per minute as
a helical, helical magazine feeds 1,550 rounds at up to 75 per second.
$27 a round that's 20 25 per second of fire.
$20,025 per second to fire the CRAM.
It was brrrrrrr.
Yeah, can you, you can now officially pretend like the stars in the night sky are no longer shooting stars, the airplanes in the night sky are no longer shooting stars.
They're quite literally $27 per round 20 millimeter multi-purpose tracer self-destroying ammunition
that is being fired from an M61A1 Vulcan Gatling Rotary Cannon.
Fantastic.
I'd rather have austerity than be considered weak before the world.
I have aggressive erectile dysfunction is switched still with those are bigotry against Muslims
acceptable.
Oh yeah.
This is the other one as many gold is back at it again boys.
here what brilliant takes the ad to say this time what really takes it at this
time this is not 1994 second he's six months where because let me say the
thing you can say whatever you want that but the guy is not I mean like if
somebody makes you mad in chat then it's not like you're gonna so you can be
anti-american anti-israelan anti-white but if you're not nice to
terrorists you're the bad guy well yeah because the left like the the left
wing like and leftist spaces have been taken over by like I think a lot
have been taken over by radical Islam. I think that's definitely true. And I think that, yeah.
Twitch is now in the pocket of radical Islam.
All of the leftists are now the Mujahideen. They've been co-opted in that way, especially with the
free Palestine movement. And now you have people that are effectively supporting ideologies that
that are, you know, really opposed to like everything.
I like that they both agree, by the way,
that I should be punished vehemently.
Like,
like, yeah, we got to ban this guy.
He's a real danger every time, every time.
Literally anti-Semitic troves used by Nazismans
against Muslims.
Yeah, nobody gives a shit.
They believe, but they're just doing it
because these ideologies aren't Western, right?
I mean, it's very weird to me that, you know, there's not a single Muslim country, majority
Muslim country that has same sex marriage, but simultaneously those same people think
that, you know, like there's not really a correlation there.
Wasn't actually asking you to game like two weeks ago.
Yeah.
And I didn't game with him because I was busy.
So now he's just going to keep fucking agitating to get me banned.
And so has been gold.
But in the process of agitating to get me banned, he's like, yeah, yeah.
I think we should just nuke every country that doesn't allow same sex marriage, but also this gay stuff is really fucked up and we should get it out of our video games.
Like who gives a fuck, man? I think if a country doesn't have gay marriage, yeah, that sucks. I wish the gay people there could get married and live happy lives, right?
But you know what effectively destroys that? American munitions, okay?
You know tomahawk missiles
B2 bombers dropping
2,000 pound payload on top of schools
That's not you know somehow a delivery mechanism for for gay marriage
Like it literally I mean like what why do you think that's not the case said the worst thing
I feel like it's kind of weird to cause I'm on a terrorist supporter and also want to do a streaming gaming club with them
What you mean XQC?
The reason why he does that is because he doesn't actually give a shit
He doesn't think I'm a real terrorist supporter. He doesn't give a shit about anything. He's just he just loves farming
Some of the biggest dullards
Just look at what happened ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt is back at it again
And then XQC and Assam and Gold's favorite guy, Jonathan Greenblatt, apparently, you know,
my boldest opp is back at it again. Let's take a look at what he had to say this time.
In the days after he said, all your takes are automatically awful. Yeah. I mean, I welcome
that to be fair. Cause if you're, I mean, his own audience doesn't even agree with
He can't even convince his like fans
Excuse who the fuck is going to excuse you to learn about politics. They're there to clown on him when he says I'm dumb shit
So even if he farms like
The dumbest possible people by being like hey guys
I know you think I'm like a toenail eating gremlin with a you know crippling pill addiction and a crippling gambling addiction to boot
but also
I'm actually, you know, I'm actually still better than Hassan. You guys should hate Hassan. Okay. Those guys were not salvageable anyway
Some of them might actually
Encounter my commentary and make up their own fucking minds, right?
But it's like someone be it's like someone being like yeah, I get all my fucking politics from clavicular and he said Hassan doesn't fucking frame mug
It's literally no different like the the intellectual fortitude
Demonstrated by the likes of ex QC as mingold and clavicular are no fucking different than one another especially as it pertains the politics
So I read it in the same way as someone someone's like no dog. Aiden Ross is actually goaded when it comes to his
Perspective on IR this guy's this guy's created an entire new field to study, right?
Okay, I
Mean, what do you want me to say to you you're openly?
You're openly a fucking moron
And then they backtrack and try to go neutral instead of actually researching anything. Yes, because for them it's a meta.
This isn't just my life. This is something that I obviously care about, something that I obviously believe, something that I push for very hard regardless of whether or not there's a massive audience for it.
I'm here to tell you cold hard truths that you might not want to hear.
Of course, over time, sometimes, like in the case of Gaza, right, the audiences initially
not very receptive to what I have to say, but over, you know, over the course of two
years and endless amounts of death and destruction, they sometimes change their minds, right?
And it's fine.
It's not like, it's not my position that changed.
It's your position that changed.
You were more open-minded.
You became more open-minded.
were more invested in the truth all of a sudden, hopefully that new open-mindedness will allow
you to receive what I have to say charitably instead of immediately fucking putting up a
defensive front the next time you hear me say something like for example, you know, about
Cuba or about Iran, right?
People like ex-U.C. and them, they don't really care, they don't really care at all.
They are just meta-chasing. For them politics is irrelevant.
They're fucking hundred millionaires, dude. Excuse a hundred millionare.
What the fuck does he care about politics? Every system serves his interests.
You know? He's just farming motherfuckers and grifting and making it seem like he has a real
fully fleshed out opinion on issues. He doesn't. It's just more shit to talk.
The US and Israel launched the military operations against Iran. I mean,
whatever your views on the conflict might be and reasonable people can hold
very reasonable differences. What happened next was not about policy. It
listen about geopolitics. It was about blame. And the blame as it so often does was placed
at the feet of who else? The Jews. I thought we could say Israel. Nope, he said the Jews.
No, I'm pretty sure it's because Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, Benjamin Netanyahu, Lindsey Graham,
The Wall Street Journal, CNN, New York Times, Financial Times, The Economist, DailyMail.uk,
DailyMail.com, The Daily Wire, Ben Shapiro, and virtually every single person openly stated
that this operation was conducted for Israel.
Maybe that's the reason why people were like,
wow, we're going to war for Israel.
For some, they pointed fingers at the Israelis who they claimed whispered
a few too many times in President Trump's ear.
Dog, that was Lindsey Graham going to Israel 55 fucking times before this operation epic
fortnight chungus started and openly saying to Wall Street Journal that Israel convinced
me and gave me the tools to convince Donald Trump.
In case you are wondering why Donald Trump went to war, we don't need oil, we have all
the oil we need for ourselves, it's one of the great assets that we have.
We have double, more than double what anybody else in terms of oil production, we're more
than double any other country.
So we don't need it, but we did it, it's almost,
you could say we did it out of habit,
which is not a good thing to do.
But we did it because we have some good allies there,
we have some great Middle Eastern countries there,
Israel there, so we did it for a lot of reasons.
Oh, why did we do it for Israel?
Oh, we did it out of habit is so funny.
It's, again, unironically, another moment of brutal honesty from Donald Trump.
For the senior senator from Maryland, a state with one of the most large, most active, most
observant Jewish populations in America, he blamed APEC, which he slandered as un-American.
Dude, you're the head of the ADL. Why the fuck are you saying APEC is not un-American?
You're supposed to be a civil rights organization. APEC is literally, like aside from being a
lobby for a foreign country that simply weirdly enough doesn't get a federal restriction
for some reason, don't know why, okay? It's quite literally reflective not of the American
values that you're supposed to care about, because you're a civil rights organization.
APAC is a far right organization, right? APAC is a far right organization. You're a civil
rights organization. What happened to the civil rights component? It's crazy.
Then there's the U.S. Congressman who stated that he stands against the quote,
vote neoconservatives who led the US in scary the neoconservatives, dude, this is so hot.
Because they used to hit this line back in the day and it used to bang like neocon is
an anti-semitic slur was a very fashionable way to shut off the conversation against
people who were anti-war activists back in the day. I haven't heard that since 2006.
That's awesome. That's cool. He's bringing it back. This time it's going to work for sure.
into the current war and instead his words he's proud to stand with Hassan Piker one
of the most outspoken toxic virulent anti-Semite-
Bro he fucking hates me dude!
He fucking hates my ass, dude.
I swear to God, if I am assassinated one day, it will literally be because of Jonathan Greenblatt,
I think.
I mean, he is an agent of Israel anyway.
It'll be probably another agent of Israel, but he's crazy.
Neoconservatives who led the US into the current war, and instead, his words, he's
proud to stand with Hassan Piker.
of the most outspoken, toxic, virulent anti-semitic influencers in the world.
In the world?
Oh my God.
Oh, dude.
In the world, dude.
I am one of the most virulent toxic anti-Semitic streamers in the world.
Dude, it's awesome.
Oh, that's so funny.
Oh my God.
He's just so, I think one of these days, he's going to accidentally be like, we should kill Hassan Piker.
Like I think he's, because he gets so mad every time it brings me up.
He's just going to let it slip.
who the congressman described as one of the representatives of quote a new moral order.
Again his words.
Other elected officials felt you got to live those suit these motherfuckers.
First of all, the ADL has been successfully sued for defamation in the past because
They're, they're the always defaming league. Okay. But always defaming losers, but it is funny.
When did you get on his radar? When you said 9-11 was rad? I didn't say 9-11 was rad. But no,
I got on his radar. I, he is known who I am. The ADL in the past actually given my moderation
team, quite a bit of praise for the AOC stream that we did where my, my, my living was fucking
tubular. Yeah. I was like, no, they, they had literally said that we were one of the best online
communities in terms of combating, in terms of combating anti-Semitism, which is true. I mean,
it literally is true. But it's, it's very funny. Cause at the time my mod team was modding for
for AOC as well. And they actually gave quite a bit of praise to my mod team for successfully
shutting down hatred, bigotry and anti-Semitism. It was after October seven that I became the
number one target. It was post October seven where I was, you know, a fairly large content
creator who just very clearly had a moral compass that was not going to be shook by the events
that unfolded.
Are you sure you don't want to condemn the juice?
Yeah.
Politics, game and culture and content moderation on Twitch.
Yeah.
The events were viewed positively.
We then analyzed where these four events were positive, inclusive at the time, other
public figures, including those involved here, are so often subjected to outpouring of hate
on the same and other social media platforms around the certain aspects of Twitch when
you use effectively can make it space is more resilient against harassment than other platforms.
For example, text message to Twitch chat or ephemeral, they cannot be engaged with
individually like content platforms like Facebook where options to like and reply
to specific comments appear even on comments on the live streaming video.
Why the difference among different events on Twitch becomes a hateful and harassing
commenting, comparing AOCASI courses events and Fallon's event, we found that the central
difference in moderation hinged on the number of experienced community moderators involved
in keeping the stream positive during the events.
Experienced community moderators understand how to navigate Twitch culture and calibrate
moderation tools that ensure Twitch events stay respectful and inclusive.
One significant lesson is that politicians and public figures interested in engaging
with Twitch should connect with experienced community moderators and researchers familiar
with the platform to create positive space for discussion and political engagement.
We also recommend that Twitch require public figures to engage experienced community moderators
before hosting events.
They literally glazed my fucking mods that were moderating the AOC stream.
If you scroll down there's a screenshot with our names too.
Yeah.
Look.
These are my mods, including Frogan by the way.
Some of my older mods that are no longer on the platform and my current mods,
it's mostly entirely my moderation team.
This is before you replace your mods with Hamas.
No, Hamas Frogan is right there.
Hamas, Hamasophase is right there.
Hamas Juice is right there.
Hamas Filter is right there.
Hamasabot is right there.
So like it's pretty funny, it's actually pretty funny that they straight up buy
I name called out my moderation team for being fucking the beacon of positivity on the platform
for combating all versions of bigotry, including but not limited to anti-Semitism.
And then post October seven, now they're like, you know, these guys are the, it's basically
the al-Aqsa flood happening every day in the Hassanabi chat in the Hassanabi community.
It's it's numerous 9-elevens, but like Jewish specific 9-elevens happening all the time and it's being directed by
His Al-Qasam Brigade moderation team
In that funny
Yeah, because they only care about fucking Israel that's it you only this motherfucker only cares about Israel at least back in the day
At least back in a day. He used to like fake it
it. Like the ADL used to have a fairly comprehensive, the ADL back in the day had a fairly comprehensive
civil rights team that would look at all different like extremism research, all different
kinds of like bigotries and, you know, terror networks and things of that nature. They
They dropped it. They literally got an unprecedented amount of donations post October 7. And in spite
of the extra money that they got, they literally cleaned house. They dropped every single person
that was an extremism researcher and are now primarily invested in just doing this.
A lot of people also left the ADL as well. The ADL's new anti-Semitism audit lists
Jewish voice for peace is a perpetrator behind the behind 313 anti-Semitic incidents in 2024
in October, for example, JVP protests outside of a pro-Israel Jewish institution. They even
threw bread at the building. It's shit like this. They do this stuff. That's why like
a lot of the, unfortunately, I hate to, you know, I hate to report this, but unfortunately
at a time unlike an institution that is tasked with combating anti-Semitism is
perhaps one of the most needed institutions, the ADL's numbers of anti-Semitism are just,
they're not real. They're not real. And you can look at their methodology and dig deep and figure
out exactly why they're not real because they consider any kind of anti-Israel related incident
that ranges from like Jewish voice for peace organized events where they're doing sit-ins
and shit to be anti-Semitic hate crimes. And when you do that, of course, you can create
a number that is psychotic. You could be like, oh, anti-Semitic incidents rose in 2023 or
2024 by like 700,000%. And some dumbasses in mainstream news will report on it as though
that's real, right? Without actually looking into where those numbers are coming from.
But yeah, another top ADL anti-Semitism researcher is jumping ship and joining a much more credible
organization than NEXUS Project U.S. The ADL's legitimacy has long been eroding not only
on the left, but increasingly in the Jewish and liberal mainstream media as well.
Like NEXUS Project is also liberal Zionist for the record.
Like the NEXUS Project is also still a liberal Zionist institution as far as I understand.
they also engage in some of the, they also traffic in some of like the anti-Israel related
incidents could be considered anti-Semitic stuff, but they are more credible than the
ADL is for sure, but that doesn't really mean much because the ADL is not a credible institution
at all.
But like the Nexus project was, if you remember the guy from the Nexus project who himself
is like a Zionist was getting yelled at by the Missouri dipshit, Josh Holly. Josh Holly
was literally screaming at him because Josh Holly wanted to implement the IHRA definition
international Holocaust Remembrance Association definition as a legal, like legally actionable
version of anti-Semitism. And the next project I was like, well, you can't do that. Like
You can't demand college campuses actually implement this definition, because if you do their people are just going to get fucking deported.
People are going to lose their their tuitions like people are going to people are going to get expelled for no reason. It's like ridiculous and Josh Holly was like yelling at this guy Jewish guy.
You know likes Israel literally was wearing a fucking IDF dog tag if I remember correctly from Nexus project Josh Holley
Was like silence Jew agent Tila speaking about anti-semitism like that's he was insane
The next project, a liberal anti-Semitism washdog, says the ADL report repeatedly blurs
alignment to anti-Semitism and anti-Semitism and that risks substituting presumptive suspicion
for constructive engagement.
mom donnie shown to respond promptly when anti-semitism is identified
is so
is so crazy
let's be real
there is not a guy
that is worse at his
stated job and his actual objectives
then jonathan greenblatt if you ever feel irrelevant
if you ever feel worthless
remember
that jonathan greenblatt gets hundreds of millions of dollars in donations
combat anti-semitism in the united states of america
okay
just remember that
because he is
unimaginably ineffective at combating actual anti-Semitism.
He unironically creates more anti-Semites.
And his real purpose is to defend Israel.
And once again, he's also fucking shit at that too.
Because this is the public sentiment shift.
New NBC News poll finds American public sentiment
turning against Israel since 2023.
double-digit drops in positive views of Israel, minus 21 among Democrats, minus 19 among independence,
minus nine among Republicans. Overall, a double-digit increase in negative views.
And this last study was conducted before Benjamin Netanyahu dragged us into war with Iran.
It was conducted between February 27th and March 3rd, like, like right as that was
happening, right?
You look at it, and in 2023, views of Israel have shifted negative, especially among Democrats
and independents.
You look at it in 2023, 47% had a overall, had a positive view of Israel, 30% were neutral
and didn't know or were unsure, and 24% had a negative view.
Now in 2026, 32% have a positive view. This is overall, remember, okay? 30% have a neutral
opinion and 39% have a negative view. Amongst Democrats, the shift is even more dramatic.
In 2023, amongst Democrats, 34% had a positive view, 35% had a negative view. Now, it's
57% of Democrats that have a negative view of Israel, okay? And only 13% of Democrats
that have a positive view of Israel and 30% are unsure. Obviously, we still have a lot
of room here, okay? We still have to keep going. We still have to keep going, okay?
That's another, you know, that's another reason why ADL and Jonathan Greenblatt fucking hates
my ass, right? Where is it? Let's keep going.
independence approval or sorry, negative opinions that Israel went from 22% to 48%. And amongst
Republicans, the most resilient demo that is still Dick riding Israel, it went from 12%
to 18%. Right. And the, the positive opinion and positive association with Israel went
from 63% to 54%. So Republicans make up the large share of positive feelings on, on
Israel in this country, right? And if you ask, overall, in the Middle East situation,
or your sympathies more with the Israelis or more with the Palestinians, overall,
it's a 40% for Israelis, 39% for Palestinians. In 2013, it was 13% with the Palestinians,
45% with the Israelis amongst Democrats in 2013 30% had a more sympathy with the Israelis 18%
had more sympathy with the Palestinians. Now amongst Democrats in 2026 it's 67%
sympathies with the Palestinians and 17% sympathies with the Israelis. Among
independence, it went from 10% sympathies with Palestinians in 37 with the Israelis in 2013
to 37% with the Palestinians in 27 with the Israelis. And once again, on the Republican side,
there has been an increase in sympathy for both the Palestinian side and weirdly enough,
also sympathies have increased for the Israeli side because the Republicans are fucking strange.
change, okay? And it's really interesting because, and I said this already, a lot of these guys
think that this happened because of people like me, right? And people like you in my
community. And sure, while we may have played a small role in spreading the word and going
out and protesting and being steadfast in our advocacy, knowing full well what the truth was.
We are not singularly responsible for this. Like, I don't have a Muslim hypnosis beam
that I opened up on my community. And then they were like, well, wait a minute,
I was saying, I'm Israel high last week, but now I hate Israel. Oh my God. Like,
this is not what happened.
That's not what happened. So taking me out and like de-platforming me or trying to de-platform me
unsuccessfully, even if it was successful, is not going to change this dynamic. Buying TikTok is
not going to change this dynamic. Okay? Tweaking the algorithm is not going to change this dynamic.
That's it. But these guys don't understand that. They think if we just shut off people
like myself, then all of a sudden the public attitude will change. They think that if
they yell at politicians, which they have unlimited access to, right, like Israel advocacy
organizations and Zionist organizations have tremendous access to politicians.
It's probably one of the last areas where they can bully people into submission, right?
They can't change the public attitude, but they can actually make boss calls and say,
look, you got a lot of big donors that I would hate to make phone calls to deny you
of the campaign contributions that you need, right?
And that's precisely why there is this major disparity, there's this weird, undemocratic
system where the overwhelming majorities in the base of independents and democrats believe
one thing, but that one thing is not reflected in their democratically elected representatives.
Israel has also lost its persuasive capabilities in mainstream institutions as well, while there are
places like the New York Times where there's still a tremendous amount of bias in the direction of
Israel that no other country benefits from, no other country gets this kind of coverage.
Even then, back in the day, if the ADL made a phone call, or a bunch of Jewish advocacy
groups made a phone call to the New York Times to be like, do not fucking cover this
Hassan Piker guy, he is a dangerous anti-Semite, it would be fucking over.
The only type of article that would ever be written about someone like myself would
would be negative, would be hit piece after hit piece after hit piece, okay?
So the reality of the matter is these groups, and I try to tell this to politicians all
the time, these groups only have as much power as you let them have, right?
You have the power.
If you are in charge of an institution, whether it be Twitch, which does still have a tendency
to lean into the lynch mobs unnecessarily, or if you're a politician running for election,
these Zionist advocacy groups only have as much power as you let them have.
Okay, you don't have to listen to them.
You don't have to listen to them at all.
You can tell them to fuck off.
You can tell them to suck your cock.
What are they going to do?
Go to your fucking donors and be like, hey, this guy is anti-Semitic.
Okay.
One, you can go back to your donors and be like, look, this is the democratic process.
I'm not going to defend Israel.
I'm sorry.
There are a million different other reasons as to why you're voting or you're giving
me money.
And I hope you can still continue giving me money.
But this is one issue where it's unconscionable and I can't do it.
I can't defend Israel.
I'm not willing to do so.
Right?
I need to abide by the the principles of democracy in my my base of support
Absolutely would despise me for this. I will never win another election again. No matter how much money you give me, right?
You can tell them that
Or you can explain to them what the situation is if you choose to do so, but this is a deeply unpopular issue
It's that simple
Donors are big fans of the principles of democracy.
No, but you're they're donating to you for one reason or another.
Okay.
And it's not usually just because of Israel.
So who gives a shit?
New. Virginia, six poll, 84.86% of Democratic voters believe that Israel is committing a
genocide in Gaza, and 85.6% believe that the United States should stop sending it weapons.
That's a rural, they got rural Virginia in this.
And there are still, there are still motherfuckers out here who try to act like, this is a real
conversation, there's a real disagreement here, oh, they're cutting us out of the party.
We're Jews and the Democrats are cutting us out of the party, no, dumbass.
Jews still overwhelmingly vote Democrat.
You are using your Jewish status as though it's like a meaningful shield to defend
Israel.
care about Israel and you want to keep voting for the Democrats while still
hoping that the Democrats defend Israel and now you're throwing other Jews under
the bus to make it seem like they only give a fuck about Israel when they live
here. They live in the United States of America. They don't live in fucking Israel.
Shut the fuck up. The age gap among Israel approval is also insane. Brutal
New polling from NBC News shows views of Israel among Americans have declined across all age
groups in the past several years in 2023. Young voters views on Israel turned sharply,
leading to declines across age ranges. In 2023, between the ages of 18 to 34, 37% had a negative
view of Israel, 26% had a positive view of Israel. In 2026, it's 63% that have a negative
view of Israel and only 13% that have a positive view of Israel. This is between the ages of
18 to 34. It's fucking done, right? The numbers are not exactly great for 35 to 49,
though. In 2023, 33% negative. In 2026, 43% negative. In 2026, 20% have a positive opinion
between the ages of 35 to 49. And once you start getting to the Gen X and boomer generation,
obviously those numbers grow. This is the backbone of the pro-Israeli sentiment.
But even then, there are some significant changes. Ages 50 to 64, 2023, 59 percent had a positive
view, and now it's only down to 37 percent. Negative opinion on Israel amongst this demo
was 15% in 2023 and now it's at 30%. That doubled. It's huge for 65 plus. Obviously,
it's, you know, the lost cause they're going to fucking die anyway. So who gives a shit
what they have to think? Marginal changes there 64 in 2023 had a positive opinion of
Israel and now it's at 55%. This graph is basically how much in your formative years
did you rely on mainstream news? If you grew up in a media environment where there was like
four fucking TV channels, and they were all universally praising the beautiful nation
state of Israel, then yeah, it's gonna be hard to shake that off. But even then, 12%
a negative view and now it's at 21%. That's huge.
That's huge.
It's over.
In Israel knows it's over,
which is why they try to slam Islamophobia
and try to falsely smear people like myself
and call me an anti-Semite.
new moral order. Again, his words. Other elected officials fell over themselves to make big
splashy announcements of not taking money from the largest pro-Israel organization in the
country, even as they seemingly have no problem taking money from anyone else.
Huh. Yeah, it's anti-semitic to say you oppose APAC money.
It's awesome.
I mean, like I said, I welcome his hatred.
Look at what happened.
He's motionless. He's a fucking loser.
If you're ever feeling worthless, remember that Jonathan Greenblatt
Rising rapidly relations he's literally the mouth of sauron I don't know what that means
It means, the task of the combat against the eminence is to write a rapidly due to his
complaints in Israel and to defend the nation's state of Israel.
To defend the nation's state of Israel's approval ratings.
I
Look up a pig in the mouth of Sauron
And then I'm gonna package that up with the fucking Israel numbers
You look like you're about to fall asleep I'm a little tired
So if you're ever feeling worthless, remember the Jonathan Greenblatt gets paid millions
to fight anti-Semitism, rising rapidly due to his conflations to Israel, and to improve
Israel's approval ratings in the US.
Yeah, I'll be discussing Illinois 9 stuff in a second.
Hold on.
Please don't come back tomorrow with that front camera.
why? That's just job security for him. I mean, he's just so
acid his job. He's so bad at his job. What is this? Okay. Josh beer making the politically
savvy calculation of launching an early presidential bid on the nationally resident issue of Israel's
being unjustly maligned and I will defend it at any cost. Yeah. The pot save America
interview that he conducted was so ass.
APEC's eagerness to sever American freedoms and its commitment to say
absolutely anything in support of a foreign genocidal nation-state is not
only not patriotic, it's bad for the US, bad for America, it's bad for the world.
Dual loyalty would be a major improvement here,
says Sam Hasselby.
Yeah, I can't believe you're saying like APEC is
criticizing APAC, which is again an Israeli lobbying institution, okay, that very clearly
works with the Israeli government to go along with the Israeli government's goals and to basically
destroy American democracy, as many other advocacy organizations do as well, like many
other lobbyist groups do as well. But, um, but APAC specifically is like so, so indecent. Like
there is nothing that comes close to the cynical ways in which these guys spend money.
They will never mention Israel because like the thing is, if you're like a cryptocurrency,
I don't know gambling lobby or something like you will bring up
You will bring up like
Why you're doing this right? Why you're defending a certain candidate oftentimes
apac never brings up israel when they're doing attack ads apac never brings up israel when they're running
positive ads about their candidates
They'll pick they'll hand select the candidate
that they like, that they know is pro-Israel,
candidates go on petition with their policy papers,
including Daniel Biss in Illinois 9, right,
as many others.
And then APAC will choose one of them to boost
and then simultaneously will attack all the other ones
that they think are gonna be a danger to Israel.
And that doesn't necessarily mean
someone who is a anti-Zionist in many circumstances,
like in Tom Malinowski in New Jersey,
APEC will attack Tom Malinowski because he has said in the past
that he might condition aid to Israel in the future.
Tom Malinowski's always been pro-Israel his entire life.
Okay.
He's always been pro-Israel.
He's always defended Israel.
And yet because at one point he said he would maybe
condition aid to Israel under, you know, uh, some, some really horrible circumstances.
Israel thought that that was too much of a threat and spent millions of dollars
boosting another candidate in the race while millions of dollars attacking
Tom Malinowski.
And in the process of that expenditure, the actual anti-zionist candidate
and Elia Meiya rose up through the ranks.
Now, A-PAC has seemingly learned from that lesson and are dumping money into every single
Democratic Party primary in Illinois right now, because the Illinois primaries are happening
tomorrow for those of you don't know. APAC linked packs have spent 21 million dollars
across four house Illinois primaries, four Illinois house primaries. It's unbelievable.
You got affordable Chicago now, United Democracy Project, elect Chicago women, Chicago Progressive
partnership and the EDW action fund. Every single one of these action funds and packs
are straight up APAC affiliated. Okay. None of them actually talk about Israel. None of
them talk about Israel. Every single one of them is like attacking candidates from every
angle. Sometimes even attacking them from the left flank as we've covered already. In
Illinois nine Laura fine is their candidate Laura fine is not gonna win
okay
Illinois nine is one we paid close attention to in Illinois eight is
Melissa bean in Illinois seven it's Melissa Conyers Irvin
and in Illinois second it's Donna Miller
okay
in for the
bernie sanders has endorsed robber j peter's
juneid
uh... uh... for for congress and also uh... karina via
Bernie Sanders, unfortunately, has not endorsed Cat Alba Gazale, but it is what it is.
This attack ad funded by APEC affiliated Super PAC United democracy project
began running in mid-January against Tom Malinowski, hit of February 5th,
special primary in New Jersey, 11th district. Notice how there is nothing
in this fucking attack ad against Tom Malinowski that talks about his like
opinion on israel or whatever
it's about how tom malinowski was not
with tom malinowski was pro ice
apac funded an ice
uh... and add
attacking tom malinowski
uh... for being pro ice which is true
The reason why for the record, I will say like the reason why ADL does shit like that is
because there are still some progressive figures in this country that are scared.
I will say it.
There are some progressive figures who just don't want to have to deal with like an endless
amount of attack ads because a pack
and the like have unlimited funds okay they can just bully you endlessly
mercilessly ruthlessly they can just like open up
a shit ton
of
they can open up mailers they can
they can buy television ads and attack you non-fucking stop
a lot of politicians don't want to deal with that
okay
they don't
and it and even when they're not in uh... campaign
They still don't want to deal with that. They're like afraid of it. Even Zoram Mammadani, who I love and admire, okay?
He is a little afraid of all of the advocacy networks coming after him all the time, which is why he sometimes takes like a much more
conciliatory stands. I think AOC is a little bit afraid of these groups as well. In the past,
she has absolutely caved on not just APAC necessarily,
but like,
Zionist advocacy organizations that masquerade is Jewish advocacy organizations that are tasked
with combating hate crimes come to people like AOC and tell them like, you can't deal
with this person. You can't do this. You can't say this thing. Okay.
And then they back away partially because they don't know, right? Partially because
they're, uh, they, they feel worried that they're going to come across like they did.
Long time viewer what voltage you shock in your dog. It is the same voltage I use on your mother's pussy
You should ask her she loves it it quakes
But yeah same was our own same with a Oc at times like no one wants to deal with this shit, right?
My point always is
There's gonna be a point where you have to deal with it, right?
And it's nowhere near as consequential as it once used to be so you might as well just say no
I'm not doing it. I'm not backing away from this
Right is that simple?
True. Theo Vaughn says that the left wing media is Jewish and anti-white on Brogues
pockets type of insims we got going on across the world and people are whining about Ramadwajie
doing nothing wrong. Yeah, I mean that kind of stuff is just like that dad's just being
slung everywhere. Anyway, let's get back to reading this spin between the lines. APEC
expects Daniel Biss to win. Yeah, Mark Rod, senior correspondent, congressional correspondent
Mark Rod says a source close to APEC says the group's main goal in Chicago is stopping
who it sees as six potential squad members, Robert Peters, Keena Collins, Junaid Ahmed,
jasmine bankhole cat abu ghazala in bushra amawala
that's an apparent strategy shift from the new jersey eleven special election
david
weigel thinks this is spin he says reading the spin between lines apac expects
daniel bis to win illinois nine
apac wants bis to lose
spent to help laura fine spent to attack him and abu ghazala spent to boost
bushra split the progressive vote
saying it would count bushra and cat as a win is pretending that bis doesn't
exist and hasn't been running as an anti-APAC candidate. The reality of the matter is, Dave
Wagle is not wrong. Okay? He's wrong when Daniel Biss is anti-APAC, okay? He's quote unquote
anti-APAC, but he's pro-Israel. Okay? This means APAC is cutting their losses. This
means APAC is cutting their losses on a significant race that they pushed, where
They didn't want Daniel Biss to win initially and they certainly didn't want cat obvious
I like the one either, but they didn't want to repeat the mistake of Anna Lillia, Meia
Okay
Daniel Biss is pro-Israel
He is
But Daniel Biss has also said things that are somewhat critical of Israel and APAC finds that to be unconscionable
It's all or nothing Daniel Biss on the other hand is pro-Israel. I'm gonna keep stressing this over and over again
And that said, you can find people who think Biss was trying to get Apex endorsement.
He wasn't, and that he took Apex cash.
He doesn't.
An Apex tracker graphic lumped in J Street.
Money is Apex money.
This is the problem with quote, unquote Apex as a singular boogeyman, okay?
It's not just Apex.
This is why who you get money from is somewhat inconsequential, right?
What you say and what the policies that you advocate for is consequential. That's why you have to listen to what the candidates are saying
Daniel Biss is pro Israel
Okay, you know this is pro Israel. He might be anti-apak
So is Gavin Newsom apparently but that doesn't mean anything. This is why a pack tracker is not reliable
You are delusional a pack tracker is unimaginably reliable a pack tracker is probably one of the
best watchdogs that we have in this country right now.
APAC Tracker doesn't just track APAC. APAC Tracker lumps in all pro Israel
donations. It just says APAC Tracker because APAC is the most popular version
of this.
A-PAC tracker doesn't just stop at A-PAC, it looks at J-Street donations too. Although
J-Street and A-PAC are rivals, J-Street is still a liberal Zionist organization. And at times,
they might say A-PAC is going too far, but the reality of the matter is J-Street still
is a liberal Zionist organization and therefore a Zionist organization. Okay?
majority for Israel is basically APEC. So it doesn't matter. J Street is the only one
of these like advocacy orgs that's like still pro Israel, but like much more tolerant, right?
They're like anti West Bank occupation stuff like that.
Same issue regarding APEC versus Israel rhetoric versus posse when judging Bernie. Yeah. I mean
Bernie is a liberal Zionist. What do you want me to say? This is not a secret. I've
brought this up over and over again, I know. This is not, you're not like bringing up something
that's new information to me. Bernie Sanders was one of the most anti-Israel candidates,
one of the most outspoken anti-Israel politicians in this country for decades.
One of them, right? There were still obviously more anti-Israel candidates out there. But Bernie
was probably the most high-profile, viable Democratic party candidate that openly stated
that they would condition aid to Israel as long as it continued its apartheid practices
in 2016. Okay? He said things, and I'm telling you this as someone who's been doing this
advocacy for a decade plus. He was saying shit in 2016 that you never heard from any
American politician with that level of prominence. Okay? Never. He was out there dancing with
Palestinians doing dubca at fucking campaign events for that reason. Well, Bernie Sanders
also happens to be still on copium clown maxing me buddy I was there when these
things were happening okay I didn't fucking learn about Israel yesterday and
got really offended and really mad when I found out how unconscionable Israel's
crimes were and now I'm the number one anti Zionist in the country okay shut
your bitch ass up. When I'm telling you something about how the media landscape was in 2016,
bringing up Bernie Sanders is like advocacy on this. You better sit the fuck down and
listen. Okay.
I
Focus are out here learning about Israel yesterday and they they they come to me to be like you are betraying the cause like shut the fuck up
Okay, I was there when the when the dust was settling when the tombs when the ancient artifacts were being invented, okay
I'm goddamn dr. Jihad. How fucking dare you a
Doctorate in both jihad and also racism. Shut your bitch ass up
Anyway post 2023 post October 7 Bernie Sanders actually was was getting outflanked by everybody else
Okay, that's it and he still is
Took him quite a long time to call out the genocide still barely ever fucking calls it a genocide
It's obvious that he's conflicted on this issue. He just stayed a liberal Zionist. He was shocking
He was shocking for me and many others
Who actually still have a lot of respect for Bernie Sanders, but sometimes just gotta give up on
You got to give up on big dog on this issue. You know, he's
854 years old
my man went to a fucking kibbutz and
He still thinks labor Zionism is a he he still thinks labor Zionism is a real concept in his mind
You know he was too embarrassed to say it out loud, but it feels like his his his attitude on this issue is like
Fucking Stalin in 1948. You know what I mean?
Yeah, he's like of course these Israel's incredibly valuable ally to the Soviets. Are you kidding me? There's like
You know, they're going to be super valuable as an ally.
We should funnel weapons to them by way of Czechoslovakia illegally in contravention of
international laws so they can go do mass slaughter.
Stalin did that, okay?
Just remember.
We can use Israel as a destabilizing factor against British interests in the Middle East.
That was the goal of the USSR at the time.
For one reason or another, Bernie Sanders has been left behind on this issue, but it
It doesn't matter because there's a new crop of talent that is far beyond Bernie on this
issue.
So who gives a fuck?
And it's not like Bernie steps in front of them and stops them from advancing.
Because if he did that, then I would have some issues.
But Bernie has never shied away from endorsing anti-Zionist, outspoken anti-Zionist.
The only time where I've ever seen Bernie tell someone to keep it in check was with
Zoran.
I couldn't believe it.
told Zoran to be watchful of, you know, like how he comes across.
Illinois 9 update to pro-Israel lobby is now spent $460,000 supporting Daniel Biss. He won't
call Israel's actions a genocide opposed to the BDS movement while lobbying accusations
of anti-Semites and a continued support defense of Web of Transfers to Israel funded
by U.S. taxpayers. This campaign has received donations from an area of donors who have
made large contributions to APEC, J.S.H.R.Y. and even the Republican Jewish Coalition,
Among other Israel lobby groups, Jay Street is currently running ads to support him.
Yeah. Daniel Biss believes BDS, the tactic that has at times been used to advance anti-Semitic ideology.
You also won't call Israel's genocide a genocide.
But the very fact that the ADL is basically, or not ADL, uh, the very fact that the, the, uh, uh, APAC groups have decided
that they can no longer deny Daniel Biss and or they would rather have Daniel Biss and they
would have Cat Alba Gazalec is interesting.
Are making final preparations in a day before one of the most anticipated primary elections
in memory.
Just in case you're still confused, you need to run down of all the races and what's
at stake.
Pair of shuts is here as you covered.
We got to start with the Senate race a little bit of controversy the day before
it's very interesting little controversy here at Terrence because the the
Juliana Stratton campaign and if we could put up the the ground we've got three
front-runners here this is a very competitive race for Senate to replace
Dick Durbin you've got Juliana Stratton, Roger Krishnamurthy, and Robin Kelly. So
the Stratton campaign put out a release over the weekend saying that she had
the endorsement of the late Reverend Jesse Jackson that before he passed
away that he was going to endorse her and then Jackson's children said
not so much and today Jonathan Jackson the other congressman said there was a
sample ballot that leaked out but the Reverend had not endorsed anybody and in
fact Rainbow Push and Reverend Jackson did not like to endorse in primary so
it was not true that that he was endorsing Juliana Stratton so where did
she say she got the word from that I don't know they just put it out in
their campaign that it was that it that it came to their attention that
that Jackson had planned to endorse her.
So again, Jackson said, well, a sample ballot leaked out.
So he might've gotten ready to vote for her
and he hadn't voted yet,
but he does not endorse in primaries,
especially when there's multiple African-American candidates.
He didn't wanna split the race like that.
So a bit of a controversy there
in this all important race.
And Roger Krishnamurthy has led on fundraising.
There's been outside money as we've talked about,
A-PAC getting involved and cryptocurrency and AI interest getting involved, millions
of dollars in special interest, Stratton kind of making a move in the polls here with all
that J.B. Pritzker money, but a little bit of a controversy this weekend.
Yeah, very interesting.
Okay, let's talk about some of the other competitive races you're really focusing
on.
Well, these four competitive congressional districts in the Chicago region, I don't
remember a time where we had that many competitive races for Congress.
And this is really going to be a sea change for Illinois' delegation.
So let's start with the second congressional district, a familiar name, Jesse Jackson Jr.
As you look at the Senate candidates there, they had appeared on our debate about a month
ago for a very fiery exchange.
And then there's the Cook County Board of President candidates, Tony Preckwinkle and
Brendan Reilly, the two of them also in a very competitive record.
And there's the ninth congressional district, and we'll get to that.
But let's start with the second congressional district, Southside, South Suburbs.
We got Jesse Jackson Jr., who had been congressman.
Remember, he was convicted for misuse of campaign funds.
He's out of jail.
He's running again.
Donna Miller, Cook County Commissioner, Robert Peters, a state senator.
Those are the big candidates in that race.
And then if we go to the 7th congressional district on the west side, there's a lot
of candidates here.
It looks like front runners are Melissa Canyers-Ervin, who is the city treasurer.
Richard Boykin, a Republican, Anthony Driver, LaShawn Ford, Jason Friedman, and
on and on and on.
got the eighth congressional district. This is the northwest suburb, Schaumburg, Hoffman
Estates. This is a replaced Roger Krishnamurthy. You've got Melissa B. in a former congresswoman,
a woman frontrunner. She's gotten the support of APAC there. A couple other candidates,
Juneta Med, Yasmin Bankoli, Kevin Morrison, Dan Tully. And then the ninth district
which you saw, Kat Abgazale, Daniel Biss, Laura Fine. Those are the top three. An
interesting wrinkle in that. There you go. You see some of the candidates there.
Interesting. We're going that race. Katabaghazali is the progressive. She's a podcaster. Um, she's very critical of Israel. I think it's really
interesting that Kat did journalism at media matters for years. And they always call her like an influencer or a podcaster.
I keep seeing people posting in mocking Islamophones that make you seem hilarious. Like a pro is on ad everywhere on Twitter. Yeah,
she's a journalist. Like it's crazy that she spent so many years being a journalist and
they call her as like a podcast or an influencer.
A-PAC has been a big issue in that race. There was an ad that came out over the weekend from
A-PAC, supporting another progressive person that's been hard on Israel, Bushra Amawala.
And the thought is A-PAC is trying to get people not to vote for Kat Abu Ghazala, vote
for the other progressive, because it seems like they think Abu Ghazala-
It has new take on Hamas. I don't know what her take on here. It doesn't matter
Like if you're gonna fucking hit me with like her website had like any D
S like pro any DS like pro regime change for anti-hamas messaging. It doesn't fucking matter
Okay, that's not what she believes you're fucking you need to stop
Okay, it's so crazy that people just like they find out
They find out about things after the fact, they come in here, they don't trust my word, they don't take my word on it,
and they just literally fucking churb about shit that has already been addressed. It's so fucking annoying.
But, is making a bit of a run here. Daniel Biss looks like he's had, in the polling, pretty much the lead, but I think some nerves here.
Look, look, look, look, look, look. Look. We're not gonna make it. We're not gonna make it. We're not gonna make it.
Because we love war with China. I want to do nuclear for shuck on China. Is that what you think? Is that what you think is going on here?
I can't i'm not it's tomorrow primers are tomorrow stop stop shut the fuck up
Shut the fuck up shut your stupid ass up shut your stupid bitch ass mouth up. Okay shut the fuck up
On the part of a pack and some of those interests that I because stops stepping on rakes, please. Oh
Mike's interview with cat was great. She answered a lot of questions. Oh, I'm glad I'm glad finally you guys are
Some of you actually watched it and now you actually have a different opinion
But there are still dumb fucks that are coming in from what they saw that that was posted on Twitter from like
I don't know a month ago
Dala who is very progressive is really making a run and then we mentioned locally
Cook County Board Cook County Assessor the incumbent facing a stiff challenge. There you go prequickal
There was a poll today that came out from M3 strategies a very reputed pollster showing
Prequickal with a pretty sizable lead here about 21
percentage points up against Riley prequickal of course tried to tag Riley with being close with Trump because
Because Riley appeared in a press conference with Trump when the building opened.
It's in his ward and...
Catabuzele is the worst enemy of Assam Piker and all the most cringe-rated tankies you've
ever met.
Why?
Because she's pro-Taiwan vote.
Catabuzele, if you want to progress to foreign policy, they're the tanky third-worldest
arwardation.
Assam is the enthusiastic vocal supporter of Cat Lamont.
Cat and Assam are literally friends, by the way.
No.
That doesn't change that their friends in Assad has been pushing hard for her to get
the nomination despite their differences in foreign policy positions.
He has said she is disqualified, will not be supporting any accusers supporting the Imperial
Corps, he does not support her.
This didn't happen.
He was telling everyone to vote Kat this last Saturday.
That was before this happened.
He was literally praising Mike from PA like two days ago for apologizing and changing
his stance to be pro-Kat.
Lydia blocked me for pointing this out.
Let me guess you were a Song fan but you were annoying in chatting to snap that you
now you hate him.
God no, I despise him and I've never been a fan of him.
I think he's a complete tanky nut job.
That's fascinating.
It's actually fascinating how some of these guys are still so aggressively anchored around
like what they have designed in their minds of what I represent, like they have invented
a guy that they hate in their minds. And they will go so far as to like cat isn't just someone
who I'm supporting cat is a member of this community. Okay. And has been for many years
like she is a Hassanabi head. Which is why it's so weird that these guys would be like
like that's so crazy.
How do you break these people's brains so hard?
I don't know who these people are.
I don't know where they come from.
I don't know what I have done to cause this level
of anger and resentment.
I guess maybe they're 18.
That's probably what it is.
common sense left is pro-talerigo firebrand.
This person is apparently Polish, maybe that's what it is.
district maps for Junete and Kat for anyone in Illinois or with friends and family there.
This is Junete Ames district 08. The election is tomorrow, March 17th and Illinois has same
day voter registration. Junete is endorsed by the DSA. He's for Medicare for all abolishing
eyes and a free Palestine for anyone in Chicago or with friends and family there. This is
Kat Abouazali's district nine. The election is also tomorrow, March 17th and Illinois
has same day voter registration. Kat is endorsed by Ro Khanna, Ihan Omar and Rashida
to leave. She's for Medicare for all, abolish ice and a free Palestine. That's right.
Eleanor Mars endorsed cataboo's Ali for Illinois nine. Her congressional endorsements now include
Ro Khanna, Jamal Bowman, Rashida to leave. And in Han Omar, here was a, a combo that
she had with Rashida to leave. It was out there just like it is for you when polling
starts coming out and it's showing you head to head. Yeah. I mean, yeah, you see everybody's
like, Oh my God, she's that close. Let's go. And you know, and then when I saw
like what they were doing. I mean, just the manipulation and the gaslighting and trying
to pull from your base, it was like I had to do it. And you know, folks like the Justice
Coalition, Sherry Album, advocates that really believe in you, you know, they stayed on
me and they were like, Rashida, we got it. We got to do this. I hope that people understand
the importance of, again, it's not about our ethnicity. It's not it's about our
lived experience but also us being on the outside looking in and feeling
completely invisible to our own government and we need to get people
there just completely like their lens is clearly not wavering like they're just
see it and they know that's the problem and no matter who's donating to
them or anything like that they're just not going to sell out their
people online. Let's just have an online the reaction of our brings an
epidemiological basis. The politics are the good first best. He was a racist,
misogynist, fat boy.
Yeah.
Anyway, the sound players should run the ADL. He's far more of an ally to Jews than his idiot green chat.
Well, the ADL as an institution, maybe in its inception, was there to serve a decent purpose.
But what it does historically, since the 90s, has been to quite literally defend apartheids.
And I say apartheid's not apartheid because it it straight up
Has defended the South African apartheid as well at the behest of the Israeli state
By spying on American Jews who were protesting against not the Israeli apartheid at the time, but the South African one
Nenyao ain't no country I ever heard of. They speak English in Nenyao. That's funny.
Yeah, it's the country of Nenyao that you gotta look out for.
So, yeah, that's what I got for, you know, what's, what's happening in the world.
Some good news.
Leica Cordia, the 33-year-old Pasadena woman and the last of the Eresta Columbia protest
has been custody has just been released from ICE attention in Texas.
Her lawyer said on Monday New York City Mayor brought up her case during his last
meeting with Donald Trump. As much as I get upset sometimes with the way the Zoran conducts
his affairs, you know, he still gets the juice. He still gets the results. You know, he's
still got motion and he's still out here doing the right thing. I wish that he would
fight a little bit more aggressively against some of these like annoying advocacy groups
that are constantly tugging at him and constantly whining and forcing him to make like conciliatory
statements when he doesn't need to, you know, but that's great.
All right, that's all I got for tonight. I'm tired. Tomorrow we got the Illinois primaries, obviously, and very exciting stuff there.
And also, yeah, I'll be monitoring the situation as always.
You already know. Love you guys. And remember, this week I'm going to Cuba.
