I love lib, I love lib slops so freaking much you guys don't understand it dude
This actually speaks to me
I wish I loved anything as much as liberals love voting, you know what I mean
because this is so perfect.
They're talking about voting,
how much they love voting,
and also singing.
Like they love singing, they love Broadway musicals,
they love being cringe and gay, and they love voting.
It's like a perfect, it's a perfect video.
And I love it too.
Love doing your civic duty.
Vote, vote, vote is our moment.

Lynn Maywell Miranda with Snap to This Beat.
I'm sorry.
There's nothing.
Wait, wait, is it a gay choir?
I mean, can you have a straight choir?
I feel like it's illegal, no.
Is that even a thing?
Is that a thing that exists?
Yeah, it's super illegal, right? If you're in gay city and you can't twerk, they beat your ass. And if you're in gay city and you try to do a straight choir, they will literally kill you. They will send you to the salt mines.
I guess, like someone, the counter argument is always going to be, oh, straight choirs do exist.
What about Mormons? What about barbershop quartets? And my answer to that is, you know,
there's a thing called the closet and people are still in it, right? Like it doesn't change
the reality, right? Like Mormons are some of the gayest people on the planet, like automatically.
Sometimes they pursue those sexual desires.
Sometimes they don't.
Sometimes they pursue it when they're on a merchant or something, you know what I mean?
But like, it just doesn't, you know, you're being ridiculous, understandable.
Do they not do choir in Turkey?
Yes, they do.
No, it's legit called the New York City Gay Men's Chorus.
Oh, hell yeah.
I do sincerely love these people.
I have so much love in my heart for people like this, because these are some of the nicest
people you have ever encountered in your entire damn life, um, you know, to be cringes, to
be free, but these, this is unironically like the backbone of like, these are the people
who might not be in DSA, but will absolutely vote for the DSA candidate every single time.
Okay.
They are all undocumented. Do you think they're all illegal immigrants? They are singing about voting illegally from Skid Row. Tim Poop taught me this. Star Girl, pal, they give it 25 gift subs.
Also remember this was literally a pro Zoran event. Yes. Yes. Playlist for later. Thank you.
I vote for the DSA every single time too. Does that mean I'm gay? Yes. And to be cringes,
to be free, to be gay is to be free. You know, you just got to live. You got to live. You got
live moss. You gotta live moss, Taco Bell. All right. Where was I? What was I talking about?
I quickly sidestepped into my favorite choir, the gay men's choir of New York, who I love and
admire. They're incredible. I mean, I mean it. I legitimately mean it. I really do love them.
Okay, so then why aren't you gay? Because God has cursed me. God has cursed me with
heterosexuality. I am forever cursed. It is what it is, okay? They step out of the gate closet,
not just step out of the socialist closet, yeah. In any case, in any case, it's truly a curse. I
I disavow it every day.
Um, you know, it is what it is.
No sexuality makes you love women is curse.
No.
But you can love women and be gay.
You know what I mean?
All right.
All right.
Folks.
time. Let's blast off and let's get into it. There's a lot to talk about. There is a lot
to talk about today. Uh, it's Monday, news day. You already know what's up. That should
put me in a good ass mood. That shit put me in a good ass mood. Is this your Hezbollah
flag clip? Yeah. That's what the tie clip is. The Hezzi. No, I'm kidding. It's just
the AK-47. You got a blast off meme for me, okay?
We got a vote, vote, vote, is our voices gonna be none, none, none, none.
That original song is also awesome too, so that's the other thing. I mean, just the, what is it,
Hunter X. Kpop Demon Hunter is so good. It's such a great Netflix movie. I love it. I love Kpop
Demon Hunters. I'm unashamed. I don't really care. I don't care. Yeah, I'm a man of culture.
I'm a man of culture.
I'm, dude, it's an amazing movie and the songs are incredible.
I like it.
Hassan, don't be a pick me, Lamount.
Dog, you think I would tell you?
You think I, of all people, would ever lean into a popular thing, especially around pop
Pop culture and music?
Are you insane?
I get bullied with regular frequency
because I openly tell you I don't listen to fucking music.
That's so crazy to me that you think I of all people
would lie about enjoying something music related.
When I very clearly tell you every single day of my life to a severe detriment to my
likeability, to my approval overall from broad society that I don't listen to music
usually.
There's another Korean rapper that I found that's actually kind of good too that I showed
Will that I sent will and he did not respond to me with I I sent him a song and I was like
do you think I still you know do I this uncle still got it this uncle still got it and he didn't
reply to me so I guess uncle doesn't have it anymore he blocked you know he just didn't reply
no it's some random Korean rapper only one of her songs is actually good it's just this new song
that came out. Um, but, and it's, it's also good because it's like the, the, the, uh,
production is really good here. You guys want to listen to it? That's worse than being blocked.
Um, yeah. I mean, I didn't get the approval that I needed that I was seeking out from Will Neff.
So I'm going to ask you guys if, if you think it's good. Okay. Are you ready for this?
Okay, I need you to be very kind to me.
It's like kind of embarrassing.
I haven't actually, this, this is the song.
It's called Headlocked by Lucy Gang.
I thought Will would really like it.
I thought Will would actually like it because of the, the
who from above?
This is so much shit!
Good! It's good, right?
Okay, I'm still got it. I'm still got it.
This is some K-pop chatter.
It's the beat that actually I really like.
I fear you've looked at this one.
It's fire. I think it's fire. I really like, uh, I, it's first of all, it's not even K-pop is,
is rap. I think, right? This is Korean rap, technically. Um, but the beat is so good and
it works very well. It works very well with, uh, her, uh, cadence.
What's the name of the song? The song is called Headlock by Lucy Gang. It could be because
I only listen to Charlie Kirk. We are Charlie Kirk, carry the flame AI renditions. Like it
literally could be. That could be Korean hip hop, right? Bro, here's the Dreamcast menu,
music and says, yo, this goes hard. Okay. First of all, here's the problem. Some of the best
artists will sample shit like that and we'll turn it into a masterpiece. And then you'll
be flicking your bean to it later. Okay. So yeah, there's music in every part of our existence.
Okay. So yeah, you, you came after me. You just came after me and attacked me for something
That could be fucking beast mode.
Oh, just wait till you know pre Hitler Kanye samples that beat and turns it into a masterpiece
This is the other song you like
Okay, this one doesn't count this one is just like this one is I mean I like music for I have a broad
I have a broad palette
Okay, I have a broad palette. Do you understand?
My name is shiago and I am from Berlin. I come to the club and I have Tyler in my jeans
My body is switching as if I would be on stream
In my city everyone knows I'm a freak
Freak, give to me because the dealer is my G. That's how it goes. That's how it be
Tonight gonna be good
Pretty standard how songs matter right now. I mean both of the songs that I like are also very like EDM with rapping over it.
I should stop being ashamed. I'm sick and tired of it.
I will be cringe going forward, okay? I will be more cringe than ever before.
This on-taste the music is a millennial.
Hold on guys, hold on here, I got you, zoomer music, right?
Hold on here.
Here's Zoomer Music.
Zoomer Music.

Okay.
Hold on, hold on, I got you, I got you, hold on.
Glitch, glitch sound effect on loop.
Okay?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then, and then, um...
Autosune wrapping over the beat.
Yeah, this is good. Wow. Oh my god. Oh my god. You put me in a 10 state. I love it.
Oh, I'm...
And then memes. Memes as well. Family Guy memes. Of course.
That's what you
guys like don't even fucking act like that's not what you listen to i know oh my god bro let me
put you on game uh two hollies i love two hollies oh unc doesn't know ball bro unc doesn't know ball
god two hollies industry plan two hollies is actually washed bitch shut the fuck up you don't
know shit okay that was he put that shit back on yeah you gotta have industrial sounds you gotta
to have some glitch noises in there. Okay. And then you have to have a family guy meme
over the beat. That's what fucking that's what Gen Z likes. No, this is Gen Z. Good
sir. Okay, first of all, this is not even Gen Z anymore, I feel like. Okay, this is this
is still like I don't know more glitch please yeah we were we were there when a hundred when
a hundred gigs was popping okay we were listening to a hundred gigs this is like young millennial
shit this is not even this is like elder gen Z young millennial music first of all like
You're not putting me on anything new. I was there when this was invented, okay?
100 gigs is even all millennial not gonna lie. Yeah
Gen Z likes country. I feel like Gen Z is so chudded out, dude. I, I legitimately, I'm so worried
about Gen Z. I guess that's the millennial in me, but I do worry about Gen Z, man. I worry
about Gen Z so much. They're so fucking chud brain. They don't know what the hell is going on.
on. They don't even realize that they're chuds. All they do is look at, uh, like the corporate
Memphis of our generation, like they look at the corporate Memphis version of the nineties
and they think that that design aesthetic is phenomenal. And, and, you know, they just,
they, they, they're not even bisexual anymore. I feel like Gen Z, you know how like if the,
the millennial meme was like, all millennials do is be bisexual, eat hot chip, lie, never
charge their phone. Like the Gen Z version of that is basically being a chud, following
T accounts, uh, and, and being, being, I don't even know, being a chud, following T accounts,
uh, and, and being fucking Puritans. That's what I feel like they're just max left or
Max Chud. No, even the Max Left, even the Max Left Gen Z still has like super chud, super chud
moments. I think what ended up happening is this like sexual liberation wave and like tumblr wave
of being super woke about sex and sexuality made young Gen Z cringe out about any expression
of sexual liberty and they've become like, they've become like the Hillary Rodham, the Nancy Reagan.
generation. That is not material analysis. I know I'm just doing like fun. I'm doing
fun commentary. It is nothing. I'm not being super serious right now. Nancy Reagan the
throat go herself. Yeah, but she was a throat go in her personal life, but she was, you
know, approved in public. You're just out of touch with zoomers. I just I worry, I worry,
I worry, uncle worries about Gen Z. Unka's always worried about Gen Z. I meet a lot of
Gen Z people on the fucking basketball court. And I'm sorry, some of them are so fucking
dumb, bro. It is crazy. It literally freaks me out when I have like a conversation with
them about shit. Yeah, I was thinking of tipper gore. Maybe whatever. It doesn't matter. Look,
confirmation bias, it's, it's sampling bias. It's anecdotal, but like when I meet, when
I meet like regular Gen Z folks, not Hassanabi heads because the Hassanabi heads are great.
The Sonabia heads are great, but there's a lot.
There are a lot of, you know, younger Gen Z
that I meet out in the real world.
And I'm just like, oh my God, this is so bad.
Yeah, I'm over here planting trees and Gen Z is kicking them.
They went through COVID in their high school years,
didn't learn.
Yeah, I worry, I worry.
I worry about Gen Alpha.
I worry about young Gen Z.
I cannot wholeheartedly respect the generation that is repulsed by sex scenes in a movie.
Yeah, they think that like millennials are pervy and sex obsessed or something.
I just don't give a shit one way or another.
You know what I mean?
I feel like Gen Z, young Gen Z and Gen Alpha are the anti-goon Puritan generation.
The ones that are just like, oh, either they lose their minds to the goon or they're so
Anti-goon that they become like Mormon?
Genzi loves hearing political grunge for the first time, see down there, you know?
What?
To be honest, sex scenes in movies are mad awkward.
What like what do people think is going on in a sex scene in movies like when they see a sex scene in a movie
Do they think like oh, I'm supposed to whip my shit out and start cranking is that way you think the sex scene in the movie is for
No, it's just like a thing that happens in the real world, you know
Like why it's it's just
it's like
To me people that get mad at 60s and movies is the same as like getting mad at murder in movies
It's like well wait a minute. This kind of violence is unfathomable. Why is there violence? I?
Do not like violence in the real world. It's like who cares man people fuck okay? It's just it is what it is
I'm Gen Z and I started watching you six years ago save my ass for real oh 100%
If you caught me in 2020 as Gen Z, I saved your life. I'll take it 100%. Okay? Because the other
avenues are so bad. Imagine instead of watching me six years ago, you started getting on the Andrew,
the Andrew Tate train. Like think about some of your counterparts. Think about some in your
generation and the rabbit holes that they've gone down. Okay? And the insane things that they believe.
You could have been busted. Your brain could have been destroyed. You could have been a sex best any fan. Think about what those guys are up to. You could have been an asmongold fan. Oh my lord. Oh my lord. You could have been an Andrew Tate head. You could have been the guy who watches all the kick streamers.
There's a lot of differing opinion among Gen Z and Alpha. It's very, very weird. Yeah.
Sex scenes or fan service reinforced by our exploitative capitalist system, whatever. My
nephew went the Tate hole. He only got saved last year. Good. Yeah, you could have been
a griper. Well, this is fire. Oh my God, this is fire. This is so funny. Okay, Scumart,
respect. It's not a purely consensual choice for the actor slash actress's decision between
not showing your body and losing a career? What? What are you saying? What is the implication?
Okay, can I say something? You know it's not real, right? Like, you understand that they're
not actually fucking on camera, right? Like, very rare circumstances do people actually
Fuck on camera. There's an intimacy coordinator
Like you're basically saying oh, this is every instance of a of a model
That is on a runway is actually exploitative across the board. I mean modeling as an industry is exploitative
Fighting for his life to put watching sex scenes with your parents in low-key a good thing
And every awkward situation rain watch the hateful eight in theaters with my Mormon grandpa and that scene was not a fun time
I'm freaking out. I guess I just I trust everyone I see movies with to be adults and they can just handle their own shit
You know how many movies I've seen
Where people are fucking and I've like watched it on the couch with my parents when I was like 14. I don't give a fuck man
I can't believe we have grown adults covering their eyes during sex scenes in in like our rated award-winning films with their parents
Just watch them fucking movie. It's not real. It's a fucking movie
Why would you take your grandpa to a Tarantino film?
Because he's living longer than a platter and then he can appreciate true cinema.
I'm fucking dying.
I'm fucking dying.
You don't believe that these are real people.
You don't believe that the person you're taking out on a date and possibly would.
Beach, we all watch Euphoria while we were in middle school at Friday Brain.
I mean Euphoria is very, um, is very liberal with its utilization of sex and sexuality and
sex scenes in general.
It's kind of the whole thing.
I'm not talking about euphoria when I talk about like having yeah, it's very gratuitous
But like there are obviously movies where it happens, you know, and it's just like a normal part of the plot
It's a normal part of human existence. Like that's very different
Maybe falling in love with and getting married and starting a family with is a real person with interiority and some autonomy of their own
You don't believe that the people who raise the people who raised you are real people with complicated emotions
that can and mature sensibilities that can actually handle stuff. I'm freaking out. You
think you're the only real person. You think you're the, well, you're literally looking
at the demography of it and I'm be, oh, this movie wouldn't be appropriate for them. They're
not an 18 to 35 year old male who spends eight hours a day on Reddit. What are you talking
about?
I love Northern lines so much. My point is that producers in Hollywood know they can
get people have people negative. Someone doesn't want to do that. They can lose opportunities.
Okay, dude, are you sure?
You're right.
You got it.
You got it.
You're definitely not looking for any kind of reasoning
as to why like the things that you see on screen
that make you queasy are actually bad
by trying to justify the exploitative side
of the fucking industry.
And completely denying autonomy to people
who might willingly actually strip down naked.
Like, you know, yes, all labor is exploitative.
All labor is exploitative, but as soon as there is nudity in the labor itself,
then it's literally the most ex-
There's no other way around it.
No one can just be like, I'm fine with being naked.
I'm comfortable with my body.
I'm fine with being naked.
It's just not a thing that happens.
It's the most exploitative.
I'm a professional actor here.
Most casting breakdowns and form actors of a role as nudity are simulated sex.
Before we even audition as actors, we have agency over what roles we accept
and what projects we audition for.
There are plenty of roles out there that do not require nudity.
If you're not comfortable doing a role that requires nudity, then that simply is not the
role for you.
And you move on to the next audition.
It's inconsistent to think that modeling is exploitative.
No, modeling is not exploitative for the output.
Modeling is exploitative on the back end because it literally seeks out very young, very young
people.
Okay?
It doesn't pay them enough and then puts them in uncomfortable situations not because you fucking walk on a runway have naked
That was the point I was making
It's the same with like Hollywood it's not the it's not the active nudity that is exploitative
It's the it's the violation of consent that is exploitative and fucked up and wrong
Yeah, yeah, I feel like we're regressing because to me progress the future when the human body isn't always stigmatized. Yeah, it's fine
Was what's next collegiate art classes with life drawing slash painting shunning new models. Yes
Don't show zoomers the movie kids
This is again, this is like a big two things that define Gen Z. I think is, is, uh, talking
about age gap relationships. Like it's the, the most like age gap relationships. And I
don't mean like, like weird ones. I mean, like a 22 year old and an 18 year old, you know,
what I mean? Like they'll, they talk about that. Like it's the, it's the worst thing
that's ever existed on the planet. Like the classic bit that I used to do, the classic
bit that I used to do is like talking about Adolf Hitler's age gap, religion with Eva Brown.
Like that's the worst thing Adolf, that's the worst thing Adolf Hitler did. You know what I mean?
That is the, that's a genre defining moment for zoomers and then also sex scenes in movies.
the age gap jenzi should be worried about is how they look like they're in the
mid okay stop I don't like that millennial shit either when millennials
are like jenzi looks so old jenzi looks so old why can't they be beautiful like
us is fucking ridiculous okay come on come on calm down okay calm down
Millennials shut the fuck up. Okay. We are the backbone of the American socialist movement, but that's cope. Okay. That's just cope
That's just cope that's just cope that's just cope
You cannot go to the colleagues because it's really bad that he had a age gap relationship to
No, but it's like
Some people make it seem like that was the bridge too far. You know what I mean?
It's like that's one of the things that you don't even mention or think about
Okay, you don't think about that. That's not in the top 10 worst things that Adolf Hitler did
It's bad. It's just not in the top 10
You know
Anyway, I just came in hot on Monday Newsday.
I like that someone made this meme, by the way.
Our curies look like that, so their yachts can look like this.
I like that they made this meme real.
Anyway, we got a lot of news to cover.
I just want to get into it here, by the way.
This is a great idea by you, a fake announcement ad.
I think you're going to really appreciate this.
Sure.
Right before the midterms, I'm planning on doing an announcement ad by as though I'm
running for office.
I love that.
That's awesome.
You've probably heard quite a bit about me.
Yeah.
The problem is, I'm not running for office.
a son piker not running for all this. And then, and then I'm going to do it in like
certain TV markets. Like I want to buy, I want to fundraise for it and then buy it in
certain TV markets. Like, and, and basically it'll be like, you know, giving the game away.
I mean, it's fine. I, I'm
Just be this happy ever in your life, please, okay, can you, can you ever see yourself loving
something as much as these elderly millennial gay men love the idea of voting and singing?
I don't think, I don't think I love anything this hard.
That's going to be us at your election.
Okay, dude.
No, that's poison.
I'll die.
I just wish I loved anything this much, man.
I wish, I wish.
I don't know if I love my fiance that much and he's probably okay with that.
No whimsy in this chat.
Well, we're just two internet brained.
We're too much on the internet.
We're too online to ever openly admit that we love anything that much.
You know what I mean?
This is the actual, what is this?
This is Michael from Pennsylvania.
This is the actual state of the Senate map.
It's an insane map by what possible metric are Georgia and North Carolina more likely to go Republican than Alaska and Ohio. Oh
Damn, I didn't double-check the default colors on those races you can put them in likely D and the other two is lean D
Michael from Pennsylvania doesn't believe in Texas doesn't believe in Blexus. Okay. He's my op now
He's my op now. I am a believer in Blexus. I also
I will say this much. I will say this much. I got I know why he's saying that I know why he's saying that I know why he's doing that. I know the analysis. It's because it's because where do I begin?
It's because we suck shit, okay? We suck. It's because we suck, and we don't deserve good things.
We don't deserve nice things. We will never have nice things. It's because Republicans look at a
guy like Ken Paxton, who's like released pedophiles, who is hated by their own party, and go,
I would rather vote for the worst possible person. Ken Paxton might be one of the worst people in
the country. If there was a leaderboard of worse people in the country, Ken Paxton is
like top 10, okay? And I'm talking like there's serial killers and pedophiles on that list
and Ken Paxton still makes it up there, okay? And Republicans will look at a guy like that
and will still go, yeah, that's my guy. I'm voting for him. I am very excited to vote
for him. He didn't even fundraise. He's not even campaigning, but he got the Trump nod.
And the opposite side is gay. He's a gay man. James Tallarico is a gay man, possibly transgender.
I'm voting for Ken Paxton. It won't even matter. It won't even matter that motherfuckers in the
party in the Texas House and Texas State Senate. They fucking despise this guy.
So I guess that's why he puts it as like, you know, lean, lean R.
It just doesn't matter how awful.
I realized some people just vote for a party that they think will win regards to the politics.
I just, I, I don't know.
I want to be confident in Blegsys.
I want to be confident in Tala Frico.
I really want Tala Frico to win.
Okay.
I do. I really do. And it's not because of the policies or anything like that.
I mean, he is,
Talarico, no, he's not. Hasan is talking about how Chuds view him.
What is Talarico gay? I thought he had a girlfriend. No, Talarico is not gay.
He's basically moral oral, straight moral oral.
That's who James Talarico is. Okay.
He's a liberal populist. He's very good on the comms,
But it doesn't matter. I'm talking about how like Republicans in Texas view him.
Republicans in Texas look at him and go, that's a homosexual man. He's vegan. He's gay.
He's gonna come fuck me. He's gonna make it illegal to be straight. He's gonna
transgender me and my children. You know what I mean? Like, that's just, we don't
live in the same world with these people any longer, okay? We just don't. We don't.
They live in an alternative reality. What do you want me to fucking say? They're
insane, okay? It's crazy because I'm sick and tired of acting like we are currently living
in the same plane of existence as like half the fucking country's voters. We do not. We don't.
We don't. They live in a separate reality, okay? They think Donald Trump is like a Jesus
Christ-like figure. What the fuck can you say about that? Donald Trump literally goes on television,
goes on rallies every day and is like you need to eat shit and die and you deserve less you fucking
philistines and people go yes sir you're right sir i love you sir you are a class-like figure
when donald trump in 2016 said i could shoot someone on fifth avenue and people would still
vote for me we all thought that was an insane statement does anyone think that's an insane
statement any longer. That was Donald Trump's Babe Ruth. I'm calling my fucking shot moment.
That's what it was.
He was right. He was so right about that. He was so right.
So, yeah, look, I'm a Tala Frico truether.
I think he's great.
I want him to win.
It's just like American politics at this point has genuinely turned into like morally neutral
to good versus abject evil, okay?
Like, you know how we talk about like, oh, Americans or Latin American elections is like
diarrhea forever versus puppies for everybody.
And diarrhea forever wins like, you know, most of the time or whatever.
I think American politics has genuinely turned into like morally neutral to kind of good
versus Satan's spawn, okay?
Spawn of Satan who wants everyone to die and he's like a
objectively repulsive
objectively toxic very violent individual not just in his policies, but also
Straightforwardly violent to it. They're immediate family members, right? Like Max Miller. I'm thinking about Max Miller
I'm talking about Max fucking Miller because like it's no longer just a
a Roy Moore style situation where we're like, oh my God, how could a pedophile run for the
Senate seat in Alabama?
It's like, no, this is what the Republican party is, okay?
Max Miller is a monster, Max Miller is a monster of comical proportions.
Like he's not just a psychopath in his policies, in his comms.
He is just straightforwardly abused, according to court documents, allegedly abused.
His wife, who happens to be the daughter of the Republican Senator from Ohio, Bernie
Moreno, who's gay and in the closet, that's a separate story, whatever.
But he's abused her, okay, and his two-year-old daughter, allegedly, according to court documents,
according to the ongoing legal incident, okay?
And like
Regardless, he's just not dropping out and he still has a likelihood of winning that race. It's fucking insane
It's fucking insane at this point. It's insane. You literally find
You find like the worst pieces of shit
In this goddamn country and you put a fucking R next to them and republicans will still vote for it
dutifully vote for it
Chill the fuck out dude. Mack Miller has been dead for years. Okay guys stop. It's max Miller max
Take a week off
It's my least favorite joke whenever I talk about max Miller there's like 700 comments in the chat they go
How dare you dude
How dare you dude Mac Miller is my favorite yeah, dude, it's funny. I got it you got it
He's sounds like his name sounds like Mac Miller. Okay. I got it
Huh
You're a new republic a Sampiker prepares a sucy and Scott Jennings over phony video leverage rumors fighting back over a heavily-edited video claiming
He's racist
Yeah, as snow's reported Jennings lie when he claimed the piker wanted to bring back lynchings as pikers remarks on lynches were sarcastic reaction to a user's chat comment and opinions expressed by someone else in a separate video
Jennings's video was widely panned with many calling for piker to sue the shimmer called Jennings video the worst instance of defamation he'd seen on Sunday piker confirmed that his team is preparing a defamation lawsuit saying it seemed unavoidable
seemed unavoidable, and that it might include Fox News.
This kind of defamation is completely unacceptable,
Piker told status.
It's exactly how normal people perceive
mainstream media to operate,
and it's a real crisis of credibility.
I think someone has to push back against it at some point.
In Trump 2.0, we know trafficking lies all the time,
just because the Republicans are trafficking lies
with regular rigors, it doesn't mean that you can uphold
some kind of editorial standard, he continued.
CNN can put whoever they want on a panel at the end of the day,
but it just signals to me, and I think to a lot of other people,
that some of their panelists are just going to be liars.
Biker has been a boogeyman for right-wingers like Jennings and
Centres Liberals for some time as they choose to focus their slander on him rather
than constructing any kind of tangible positive political message.
And Jennings is perhaps the last person anyone should be listening to in regards
to black politics in America.
They're not, well, they're not choosing between R or D when they only see one side
of everything that don't even entertain anything else.
we need a media revolution? Anyway. Yeah. So I always got to hold these motherfuckers
accountable. You know, someone's got to do some about it.
You got a sue Jenny to create any lasting change here. I don't think you'll be able
to convince him otherwise. No, for sure. I understand it. And it's so funny because
I have been defamed and slandered endlessly on the internet and by mainstream outlets
in the past as well. But I had to put my foot down when when something is so egregious.
I have to do something about it. Uh, so yeah, we, we have to, we have to do something. It's
a, we have to set a precedent here because enough is enough. I do truly feel like it's
gotten completely out of hand, uh, with the way people do comms, with the way people talk
about one another. Yeah. And the thing is, like, I've let it, I've let it slide for
so long, dude. I mean, it's just people have yelled at me over and over again for not being
more litigious. I hate it. I don't like it. I'm not a fan of litigation in general, but
like what is this rape tone is actually begging you to sue him and threatening to sue you if you
sue Jennings law about what I just don't understand how people think these kinds of things go where
they're talking about like what discovery is gonna really show the reality like what discovery is
gonna show what you think it's gonna show that I'm like actually a person who is pro lynching and
anti-black what are you fucking psychotic I mean I guess you have to be again we're talking about
no consensus reality we are talking about no consensus reality this is the this is the place
that we live in. This is the, this is the unfortunate circumstances that we exist under,
where people who literally have lost their court case that, that showed in civil litigation that
they were engaging in sexual assaults and harassment against their victims will then
turn around and be like, well, I can't believe you're calling me raped. Oh, and you're going
to jail for that, buddy. It's like, okay, dude, shut the fuck up. Okay.
Okay?
Like, look at this, look, look at this insanity.
Tech don't confirms he and many others will be suing Hassan Piker if he wins the lawsuit
against Scott Jennings and potentially Destiny.
You better hope to God you do not win.
If you do myself and many others will be suing the F out of you.
All you've done for years, nearly a decade of slander, defamation, you're a horrendously
toxic piece of shit and you're a pussy, weak, vile piece of shit human being.
not want to win this, I promise you, or the wrath of God will be brought down upon you.
My God, have mercy on your soul." It's like, what are you saying, man? What are you saying?
Also, what the fuck does a separate lawsuit with Scott Jennings have to do about you?
These guys just want a piece of the action so bad.
They literally, here's the problem, and this is the funny thing I'm going to get to, if
Fartlow also came in to defend Scott Jennings and defend the Republican Party on surprising.
What is this? I don't think it's a good idea to talk about litigation right now,
given the recent headlines and then it invites Chatters to get all stupid and the boss trolls
from your detractors following suit just changed the subject.
This is the last thing I'm going to say about it. Defamation lawsuits are often a tool of
silencing used by powerful abusive men.
Hassan Piker is the latest to threaten truth tellers,
he's E-fat low.
The truth teller is Scott Jennings in this situation, according to E-fat low.
Piker, by the way, built his YouTube two-shottings by profiting out of supporting
abuser Johnny Depp's defamation lawsuit, the one that silence his ex-wife, Amber Hurd,
who was telling the truth. That's crazy. That's how I built my following.
I think you're mistaking me with Asiming Gold.
How are the mom, Donnie voting free, pass, I'm going to cope with this,
you asked, they'll cope by now justifying defamation losses is silencing tactics.
Yeah, he's going against the well-moneyed and resourceful opponent and he's inviting a sea
of those he is himself to feign to come after him. So let him stumble face first into this one.
I don't know how these guys think this stuff works. I don't understand it.
Yeah, there's like hundreds of hours of defamation in here Hasan is suing me wait what
No, I'm not what the fuck is this guy doing?
You know what's crazy?
You know what's crazy about this?
This asshole openly admitted in his fucking harassment and assault case that his ex launched
against him.
He openly admitted in the court documents during the deposition that he's doing this
fuck Hassan shit.
He's doing these like anti-esan videos to farm an audience because they're so gullible.
It's just such an, it's such a clear cut desperate for relevance move from rape tone.
Yeah, so I'm Marcus who thought Ethan Klein was, yeah, if someone actually committed actionable
defamation against the song, which Jennings didn't do since the song's a public figure,
a song was still not sues, he's a lawsuit resultant discovery, which would completely destroy
his life.
And it's like, I don't even understand what this, what these guys think discovery is like.
Yeah, remember the guy, the guy who's like claiming that I'm suing him for defamation,
I'm not rape don't court transcripts now confirm the streamer and rapist tech tone pivoted to doing anteus on content because he was losing
His audience following his sexual assault charges. Unfortunately. I had to make a little bit more extreme comments to be successful in the career that I'm in now
You have the dumbest ops, I know it's so strange
change. According to Phil Mott, Tecton has made 448 videos mentioning you as the least
Surprising
Dude, I don't think people understand
You count has gone down cover the ship more often wait, what?
We talk about me
Yo, can you please get to the ABC interview? It's latest book here in Australia. All right.
Anyway, so, so, um, where was I? Oh yeah. So I, I gave an interview to ABC Australia and
apparently the ABC Australia interview planted America. This is the full interview. We're
going to watch the full interview by the way, but according to, according to some in Australia news,
this was unfathomable. A bridge too far. Daily Mail wrote about it. They were saying like I'm not,
I should never be interviewed by ABC or surely I had been interviewed by ABC or surely in the past
Read the New York Times article about Baltimore what Baltimore is so back
Pica he is one of the most well-known live streamers and podcasters in America right now
And he is certainly also one of the most controversial a controversy that really began six years ago
when he was a member of the left-wing Young Turks political commentary team.
It was on his own fledgling live stream program that he said this.
America deserve 9-11, dude. I'm saying it.
Now, obviously, that was just a very, very short clip without its proper context,
but it is the clip that most people saw and keep seeing.
At the time, it did draw widespread condemnation as well,
including from Piker's own uncle, who's another left-wing streamer.
This is Young Turks co-founder, Cenk Yuga.
You said America deserved 9-11. Did you mean that?
No, obviously not, especially considering the fact that while that is a very viral quote that
is going around currently, if those people were at least even remotely charitable or cared about
the actual truth of what I was talking about, they would understand that within context,
I was simply referencing the fact that all of the foreign policy decisions and our arming of
insurgent groups in the region and our efforts in destabilizing the Middle East have a direct
consequence, a boomerang effect rather if you will, in causing 9-11.
And Piker did go on to apologize to those who were offended by the initial 9-11 comment.
But this all became a major issue again this year in that Michigan Senate Democratic primary.
Piker, in the last five or six years, has become a significant political influencer.
He often has prominent left-wing guests on his show,
including Bernie Sanders and AOC.
And in recent weeks, he has hosted
and campaigned for Abdel El Sayed.
Despite backlash, Progressive Michigan Senate candidate,
Abdul El Sayed, appeared with controversial streamer,
Hassan Piker, at a Michigan State rally
where he refused to reject his past comments.
Abdul, are there any views that Hassan holds
I'm not here to disavow people's views, I'm here to have a conversation about how to get money out of politics and money back in the pockets and pass it on to care for all.
Staying on message, but Elsai had also defended talking on Piker's program, arguing you do not have to endorse somebody's every utterance just to go on their show, and on that we would couldn't care.
El Sayed maintains he does not share Piker's socialism.
As you said, he says he is a capitalist,
but that hasn't stopped some of the other inflammatory things
that Hassan Piker has said over the years
being used now to attack El Sayed.
Kill those motherfuckers and murder those motherfuckers
in the street.
They're in the street soap
in their fucking red capitalist blood.
The people who listen to Hassan are engaging in case
they want to lay forward into our politics.
He has said a lot of inflammatory things,
all very good for the Republican news 24 sky is all surely absolutely going to be doing
their hate campaign again because of the song. Yeah. I mean, it's Rupert Murdoch. He fucking
Rupert Murdoch put the beat on me. Okay. Put the crosshairs on me already. So all of his properties
have been aggressively coming after me. Wall Street Journal, the opinion editorial page at least,
because I did get a decent interview with Wall Street Journal magazine, Fox news, sky news,
Murdoch, I think, is not a fan. New York Post.
Attack ads now. This is how Hassan Piker defended those kinds of remarks to the ABC's Sarah
Ferguson last year. And it's of course hyperbolic and it's not meant to be sincere. It's not
sincere advocacy. It's not a real policy that I would ever advocate for. And that's precisely
the reason why when Republicans were desperately looking for any sort of incisive language
that they could present, they went back to a very obvious instance of larking, an insincere
statement that is obviously hyperbolic from, I believe, 2018.
Hyperbole, perhaps, but Pico has made an entire series of fairly inflammatory statements
about Israel.
His rhetoric can be at times very aggressive, sometimes so much that we literally can't
play the clips on this show and he's also been complementary.
Double down, stop apologizing, take your own advice, but I don't believe in it.
I don't believe in it. What are you talking about? What are you stupid?
What do you want me to fucking act like I believe in something I don't believe
just so I double down? Are you insane?
No, I already, I bring this up in the ABC interview as well,
where just apologize for things that you truly think are worthy of an apology.
You're doing it for yourself, you're doing it for your base, you're doing it for your community, you're not doing it for the opposition.
The opposition will always use it regardless.
But it's just like so stupid. Look, look, the framing of this stuff still comes from bad faith actors who have, have, have aggressively, aggressively slammed, you know, choice quotes over and over again from
22,000 hours of commentary, okay?
There will be moments where I'm joking,
that they'll take as though it's sincere.
There are moments that are directly clipped out of context.
There are moments where I'm reading a chatter
and they clip it to make it seem like I'm saying the thing
that the chatter is actually delivering to me.
You know what I mean?
But if there's something in there
that I don't sincerely believe
and people ask me about it,
of course I'm gonna say the truth.
I'm gonna be like, look,
not, you know, that's not a thing that I believe it's crazy.
China's father of communism, Mao Zedong, I got stopped by a cop who thought it was like
making fun of Mao Zedong, which I never even this one is is not the full scope of the argument.
Like they're they they're making it seem like I'm like when I say I would never I would
never criticized Mao Zedong. Like I'm joking. I'm exaggerating. I literally immediately followed up
with a criticism of Mao Zedong. Would and never will. It's just not sufficient for these folk.
That's what it is. Zedong is one of the great leaders of this world, okay? A man who changed
the entire universe, the entire planet, okay? For real, for real, yes. I mean, there's a lot of
fucking excesses, let's be real, but the People's Republic of China would not exist without
Mousy Don.
Yeah, there have been some excesses, but Biker also influences a lot of people, averaging
about 36,000 viewers at a time.
Hey, that doesn't sound like much, but when you're live streaming for eight hours straight,
seven days a week, it adds up to 14 million people watching his live streams every month.
Yes, 3 million followers with almost 2 million followers on all of the major social networks.
I mean, micro targets young men in particular.
70% of adults under 30 who consume news through influencers like Piker say they're better than traditional media at explaining news events.
So this guy is really going to matter in the midterms.
So why don't we see what he thinks about them, Joe?
Well, we could just ignore the principles of free speech. I suppose we do have a few minutes up our sleeves
So why not here is her son pika?
That's in my welcome to funny. What is going on with their graphics package, dude?
What is going on with their graphics package is so awesome
Australian news is crazy man. Hello, okay the candidate that you endorsed and campaigned for and spoke to many times
times on the American side is the only Democrat now trailing their Republican rival in all
the Senate battleground states.
54% of Michigan to say he is quote too extreme to vote for.
Establishment Democrats are already saying told you so.
What do you say to them?
Yeah, I think it's expected.
As a matter of fact, I talked about this leading up to the election when it was all but sure
that Abdul is going to win the primaries, even though the polls were kind of off on
that as well.
Uh, $70 million of outside expenditures and attack ads for Abdul Al Sayed is going to
obviously hurt a little bit, but it was clear that, uh, it didn't hurt enough for him to
lose the primaries, but that impact will remain at least for a little bit. Whereas Mike Rogers
on the other hand has maxed out his, uh, name recognition in the state because he ran and
lost already to Elisa Slotkin only two years ago. For Abdul, it's all a matter of consolidating
the base, which I think is going to be a relatively easy process, but he of course still has a
lot of work to do. As far as the extremism goes, I find it rather strange that moderate
Democrats would consider Abdul. I also had to be extreme, especially considering that
his opponent, Mike Rogers, who's not even from the state, is a pharma lobbyist responsible
in parts for the opioid crisis, and immediately started attacking Abdul with a barrage of
unbelievably odious, repulsive Islamophobic attacks, saying that he had actually played
a role in combating terror his entire life from the FBI all the way into Congress and
made comparisons of Osama bin Laden to Abdul Al-Said.
I would say that's pretty extreme. I'd say that the people of Michigan consider Donald
Trump to be pretty extreme. So I don't think that's going to be much of an issue.
Asan, why do you think Abdul El Sayed won his primary, but Francesca Hong didn't win
her primary? Is that just how it goes? Or do you think there was a particular reason?
Great question. So Francesca Hong was running for a governor's seat, and that's a very different
kind of race. As a matter of fact, most people might not know this, but Americans have a very
close and personal association with their governors. There's a lot of blue governors in red states and
a lot of red governors in blue states that are beloved. So it's definitely a little bit more
removed from the party. But there were a couple of things that were pretty significant in the
Francesca Hong race, at least as far as all the other insurgent candidates that I've worked with.
Francesca did not get any national progressive endorsements. And it's very clear to me, especially
after the defeat that the Democratic party broadly is still very motivated by electability concerns.
And that was a huge problem for Francesca. Not that she wasn't electable, but I think that that was
the primary earned media attacks that she received from national media leading up to the election.
And certainly the establishment Democrats seem to think so as they consolidated support and got
the endorsement of the outbound Governor Tony Evers, who is a fairly popular figure in the state,
to go around the state, go up and down the state to endorse and demand people vote
for David Crowley instead, which was the more moderate choice. That's the reason why Francesca,
unfortunately, lost the race, despite the fact that there was record high unprecedented turnout
for both of these campaigns. So it's not looking too great for the Republicans in the state of
of Wisconsin nonetheless, but in comparison to the Abdelal Sayed run, those are the major
differences I think.
Unfortunately, the Francesca Honk campaign also didn't fundraise enough so that they
could potentially run linear TV ads, and we saw her overperformance in rural areas,
in rural counties in Wisconsin that were outside of the Wisconsin television market,
as opposed to her underperformance against David Crowley
in all of the rural markets where outside expenditures
to the tune of $4 million were able to purchase TV ads
for David Crowley.
You didn't mention the ATL and spending
and how close the election was, dog, just wait, I'm cooking.
I did.
Notice how I did while you were writing that comment.
Sometimes it's okay.
Sometimes it's okay to just wait.
So how much history and indeed cultural bias
would Abgl also have to overcome to get elected to the Senate from Michigan this year, given
there is one Democratic Socialist in the Senate, Bernie Sanders. There has never been a Muslim
American elected to the United States Senate. Is America ultimately inherently anti-socialist
and maybe Islamophobic?
I wouldn't necessarily say that there is an inherent anti-socialist slant. I think most
Americans are not very familiar with socialism at all, but they're getting quite familiar
with it, especially in this last run where we've seen a lot of successful, self-avowed
socialist candidates defeat long-term incumbents in major seats of power within the Democratic
Party.
Abdelal said, of course, he's not a socialist, he's a capitalist.
I like him personally, although I am a socialist, but we've had some conversations and some
debates on the issue as well as a matter of fact.
He says he's a capitalist, he just wants to regulate capitalism.
So I just wanted to make sure that that distinction is known.
But as far as having a Muslim senator, yes, I believe that Islamophobia is always going
to be a hurdle, just like Kamala Harris being a black woman was a hurdle for her.
But these are not hurdles that people can't overcome.
This is something that I stress all the time.
Whenever people try to make the argument that only a white man can win the presidency, I
tell them, no, I think Barack Obama actually proved that this is not impossible.
It's just a hurdle, but you really need to get better at getting to the point faster.
Way too much extraneous information.
You're even losing me in these answers.
Imagine the average viewer.
There.
I do think that there are, there's a lot of information I'm talking to an Australian
audience.
So in the back of my mind, I was thinking I need to pack it with as much info as possible.
understand. I'm not talking to political. I'm talking to ABC Australia. So I'm trying to pack,
I'm trying to package it in a way where I'm thinking about make a shorter gang,
make a shorter gang. All right, Abdul Good, Fran Lost, outspent. That's what I'll say.
Francesca Lost, outspent, many attack ad, many earned, many negative earned media moment.
Francesca, couldn't instill confidence as electable?
Is that good?
Maybe you find it a little bit boring because you've heard me explain these things over and over again extensively for hours on end.
And you're already learned to take feedback law. I mean, I'm just explaining to you what my position is, you know
My position on this like the reason why I'm like very
Robust in my explanation is because I'm I'm talking to an audience in Australia
That's probably not as tuned in to the fucking Wisconsin gubernatorial primaries and they're asking about the Wisconsin gubernatorial primaries
So I know that there's a lot of factors that I need to
explain instead of just like giving short, piffy answers. A hurdle can be overcome with
good policies. And I think Obdoloss adds advantage is that he delivers on these good policies,
left populist policies that are broadly popular across the board. And not just among Democrats
either. I think Republicans also are sick and tired of skyrocketing premium prices that
that they have to pay for their for-profit healthcare insurance.
So Medicare for All is cross-partisan.
Medicare for All is actually very popular amongst the masses.
And that's a primary fixture of his candidacy.
On other issues, Abdul Al-Said, I think, will be appealing to the masses broadly as well
across both parties.
One of those issues, of course, is criticisms of Israel.
I think he's done a very good job of communicating this desire as well by tying it back to domestic
implications, domestic considerations, saying that we shouldn't be waging wars overseas
and instead spend this money on ourselves.
And at least in my experience, this has cross-party appeal as well.
Hassan, you recently said that progressives might have to moderate in the general election
at least with the way they communicate.
Now, does that mean you don't mind if, say, Abdul El Sayed or AOC threw you under the
bus, if that's what it takes to win?
Tackling the form is probably the more appropriate way to deal with questions like that, and
just simply ask, why are we doing guilt by association?
Most Americans hate cancer culture, so that's definitely a successful strategy, which Abdul
has deployed as well.
And so has Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, as a matter of fact, because at the end of the
Today, no matter how hard the Republican try to make me the relevant figure, the central
figure, as they've actually openly revealed in an Axios report that just came out, that
this is their midterm strategy to talk about democratic socialism, to talk about myself,
and to talk about some of these other candidates and present them as these thine-the-wool radicals.
I think what matters most to people is solving the affordability crisis.
And I think Abdul and AOC are clever enough communicators to be able to bring the issues
at the forefront of their campaigns,
even if this is the line of questioning.
The other side of this, of course,
is that it shows weakness.
In the post-Trump universe that we live in,
a lot of people actually don't respect apologies
for the most part.
Everyone thinks that they respect apologies,
they see it as humility,
but the reality is most people don't see it
as humility, unfortunately.
We live in a very contentious media environment,
and the reality of the matter is when you apologize
for an affiliation, whether it's in the past
or even in the future,
Most people end up doubling down on that and they use that as ownership and we'll even
turn around and yell at you for your hypocrisy or forever having accorded the interests of
someone like myself at all.
I'll give you one example from my own personal experience.
A lot of people use the 9-11 comments that I made in 2019 as a way to declare myself
to be a radical and America-hating radical and it's really interesting because I misspoke
on that.
I actually very clearly was describing the concept of blowback in the longer context
of it all.
And I also apologize for it back in 2019 and yet people still use that sound bite over
and over again now in 2026.
So I don't think people care necessarily about apologies.
And I think Democrats should probably stop apologizing for things that Republicans want
them to apologize for.
So my perspective on it is only apologize if you've actually done something wrong and
You want to make sure that your base understands that you've done something wrong and don't ever expect people to take your apology and grace in most
circumstances, your oppositional framing,
your oppositions framing on the issue is what they're trying to dial home to the rest of the voters.
So if you end up apologizing, you just take ownership over something, you don't have to take ownership over.
You suddenly find yourself at the center of this midterm election campaign.
Some of your most controversial comments are being taken and used in attack ads against the left-wing and socialist candidates
That you have endorsed. I wonder can you tell us what does it like to be at the center of that political storm?
Particularly given that we know all too well political violence is a reality in America. I mean it certainly worries me
It's not a secret that America can be a very violent nation at times a lot of people have guns here
And also they use them all the time. However, I mean that is I think the the ultimate goal of the Republican Party
It's the ultimate goal of Fox News and it might even be the ultimate goal of some establishment Democrats who also
foresee this movement that I'm a part of as a
significant threat to
the profits of corporations or their corporate benefactors in general
Having said that, you know, you have to be bold you have to be brave and you have to always say the truth
that's my policy, so I'm going to continue doing what I'm doing regardless. But no, it doesn't
feel great to be in the crosshairs all the time. It doesn't feel great to be misunderstood.
And now we live in an environment where clips out of context can be the news desk editor
for months on end. This line of attack actually started all the way back in April. And I really
thought that it would die down by now, but it's only gotten worse in the process, especially after
for some of these, bro, you look ridiculous on TV,
use a green screen, okay?
So we're not doing,
we're not doing like micromanaging
backseat production from chat.
I don't know if you guys are aware of that,
but that's not what this is supposed to be about.
And it's like Abdul won their primaries.
Asad, you're obviously an entertainer, not a politician.
and when you're in live stream mode,
you speak like an entertainer,
quite a provocative one at times.
But you also have serious political opinions
and you seem to want to be influential in politics.
So does that mean going forward,
you've got to be more careful when you're live streaming
or do you think that doesn't matter?
I do think it matters, absolutely.
And I am as careful as one can possibly be.
But I think a lot of people don't understand the format
that I exist in, the medium that I occupy.
Twitch streaming is very different
than regular live broadcasting.
I speak for eight hours uninterrupted on end.
And it's actually a very hostile and sometimes,
it's actually a very contentious
and sometimes very hostile environment
because there's always back and forth
communication taking place.
One example I use is the latest smears
that I have been receiving from the Republican Party
including some of its spokespeople like Scott Jennings,
who works for Salem Media and now CNN as well.
He's in the running for Trump's new press secretary
as a matter of fact.
He recently smeared me, slandered me
by using a clip compilation
that the Republican party had put out.
And in the clip compilation, it's very clear
that I'm actually sarcastically reading a comment
from someone in my community
that's actually making a very hostile
and very heinous accusation saying,
we must go back to the time of lynchings.
And the Republican Party actually clipped it to make it seem like I'm saying that as though
I'm in favor of going back to a time where lynchings were taking place against black people now
They know that this is a heinous smear. They understand that but they use it nonetheless
I actually am pursuing legal options right now as a matter of fact
but the reason why I brought that up is
Because things like that happen all the time especially when I have spoken on
on hotly debated, very contentious issues for more than 22,000 hours at this point.
22,000 hours of sometimes hostile conversations about very incendiary topics that people have a
close and personal association to. So it's an inevitability that there are going to be moments,
passionate moments, moments where I'm embellishing, moments where I'm actually using metaphors that
people will take as though these are sincere moments of advocacy and
rob it of its context and its nuance. It's actually really funny because
my fans used to make out-of-context clip compilations in a joking manner,
and I never thought that years later those out-of-context
clip compilations would turn into attack ads for candidates
and an entire political movement. So having said all of that, of course,
I have to be as careful as I possibly can, but I'm not a robot,
and the medium that I occupy, unfortunately, allows for this sort of thing to happen quite frequently.
Hassan, because of the controversies around you and the way that you're now featuring
in so much of the conservative attacks on progressive candidates, has your usefulness
politically largely passed? Are the likes of Abdel El Sayed or Alexander Ocasio-Cortez or
or Bernie Sanders, no longer taking your calls.
Well, I can't speak for Abdul El Sayed, but no, I don't, the calls have not stopped.
I can tell you that.
It's actually very interesting because at the end of the day, a lot of people don't
want any additional negative association or any negative attention on their campaigns.
But the reality of the matter is I do occupy a space where there are a lot of disillusioned
young male voters, a lot of voters that weren't necessarily interested in the political process.
uh... i that's the role that i serve at the end of the day bringing under forty
five-year-old young men back into the fray back in the political activism and
uh... that's precisely the reason why a lot of these politicians
of course uh... want this audience and want to speak to this audience and
want this audience of door knockers and and motivated people to go out and phone
bank for them and even fundraise for them as well
is remember
these campaigns and these candidacies that i work with
their left populist candidates many of them are socialist they're part of a
broader movement of democratic socialist of america in this country
for them they have no other option there's not going to be outside
expenditures in their races there's not going to be any sort corporate super
packs spending money on their behalf because their positions are antagonistic
to these corporations
so they recognize very well
this is
the most important avenue that they can occupy not only the attention
economy
uh... but also
uh... the loyal
uh... door knockers and and canvassers that they get as a consequence of
appearing on the show or even
uh... campaigning alongside myself sexually very interesting
in the american system the primaries are
not exactly something that people pay attention to for the most part
uh... and certainly not the midterms as opposed to the presidential race
everybody goes out
and votes for the president the presidential race but most people don't
take those tensions the primaries
These are the primaries in the midterms, right?
And yet, months before the actual primaries took place,
Abdul and I went out to college campuses
and we had two different rallies.
This is when a lot of this drama,
a lot of this manufactured outrage started.
And what was interesting is Debbie Dingle
is a very prominent Democrat in the state,
actually attended one of these rallies
at University of Michigan Ann Arbor.
And when the journalist asked her what she was doing there,
she said she was fascinated by the fact
that there were so many young people
that were involved in this campaign,
so many young people that were primed and excited
to come see Abdel Al-Said, someone running for Senate,
this far out from an election during the primaries.
And that's precisely what I think a lot
of these insurgent candidacies require
because we can't have any sort of astroturf movements
because our positions are very antagonistic
to corporate bottom lines.
And therefore we have to have a real people-backed movement.
And this is my job, my job.
Do you guys like actually listen to the things
that I'm saying or are you just focusing on
why my voice sounds raspy?
It's because I'm doing this interview after,
three hours after I was done with the eight hour broadcast.
Okay?
Like what, I just, I feel like this is just, you know,
whenever I do these sorts of interview hits,
like this is good to show to your family members.
Okay, this is good.
This is a good setting to show to people
who are maybe on the fence.
Okay.
But you just watch and you go,
oh my God, your hair looks so pretty.
Oh my God, your voice sounds raspy.
Oh my God, your lighting actually doesn't highlight you.
What is wrong with your background in a TV setting?
It's like, dude, calm down, okay?
Up is to connect the people.
Lock in some of these candidates that are going to present their interests, the people's
interests first and foremost, over the interests of corporate profits.
At the moment, the political public are associating you with Abdul El Sayed and he's not even
a socialist.
So, who is the candidate that you're most excited about in these midterms and what's
the issue that you personally care most about?
Oh, I'm certainly very excited about Abdul.
I understand where America is. I'm a very pragmatic person contrary to what people will see from these clip compilations that they
They blast all over the timeline. I'm actually a very pragmatic guy
There are disagreements that I have with even the likes of Bernie Sanders on certain issues
But at the end of the day, I understand that a good organizer must organize regardless of
Some disagreements as long as we can have comradely
engagement with one another and and try to work it out. That's the that's the
best possible thing you can do in the democratic process. So Abdul probably is
one of the candidates that I'm the most excited to work alongside in this cycle.
Although it's very tough to choose because virtually every single person,
actually every single person that I've worked alongside this cycle, have been
incredible. These are unbelievably charismatic, unbelievably dynamic
campaigns. These are people that are actually fighting for something for the first time
in my life. I feel and my community shares the same exact feeling as well. We're finally
voting for people that are running on policies rather than simply running in a defensive
posture against the Republicans because for my entire life I voted Democrat and I've always
voted for Democrats that I wasn't really excited to vote for. I was voting for them because
I didn't want a Republican to win these seats. So, instead of voting against something, we
now have the opportunity to vote for something, vote for candidates who we align with, let's
say, no more wars that want to rebuild this country's infrastructure, that want to rebuild
a robust manufacturing base back in the United States of America and give workers the benefits
that they deserve, a bigger piece of the productive output that they generate. That's very exciting.
So it's tough to choose, but I would say Abdul probably aside from, I guess, Zoran, who is
now the mayor of New York.
Chris, and finally, can I ask your thoughts on the upcoming 2028 presidential election
process, the primaries we saw back in 2016?
Progressive Bernie Sanders was effectively blocked by the establishment wing of the Democratic
Party who fell in behind Hillary Clinton.
Similar thing happened to Bernie Sanders again in 2020.
There wasn't even the chance for a progressive to run against Kamala Harris in 2024.
Will 2028 be any different as an IOC or a Rokana or somebody even stand a chance?
Oh, absolutely.
I think 2028 is going to be a very different time than what 2026 looks like.
I mean, after all, think about the conversation that we're having right now with numerous
Democratic socialists, open Democratic socialists winning their...
From a foreign POV, this probably reasons an American trying to do normal left politics
in a clown world. Yeah. But that's, here's what it is. Here's what it is. Okay. That is the reality.
Because if you live in a country with socialized healthcare already, socialized medicine already,
you probably look to someone like myself as like one of the most normal individuals.
Even if you don't fully agree with my worldview, even if you don't fully subscribe to my worldview
about my foreign policy opinions and things like that. Ultimately, you hear me advocate for healthcare
and you're like, why the fuck don't Americans have this? Right? So that's the point for many of
these interviews. Europeans, Australians, any country that has nationalized or socialized medicine
and socialized healthcare is going to look at someone like myself and go, it is kind of crazy.
that Americans literally think this guy is a dangerous, radical, anti-American terrorist
and communist because he's straight up demanding things that we have been taking for granted here.
It's insane how this interview is pretty accurate framing so used to the biased bad faith garbage
we get in US media. Yeah. And unseating more than 10 incumbents. I'll give you one example.
When the Tea Party movement started, it was backed by the Koch Brothers.
This is a billionaire family and it was an AstroTurf movement.
This movement actually unseated four incumbent Republicans at the time
and they thought this was an unbelievable swing.
We have so far unseated ten Democratic incumbents.
And this movement is a people-backed movement.
And if you were to ask me two years ago, when I had just left the DNC after being invited by Kamala Harris and felt very discouraged about what I had heard there as the Democratic Party's platform was simply a continuation of all of the policies that made Biden so unpopular.
popular. If you were to ask me that there would be this robust wave of socialist victories
all around the country with almost 50% of Democrats in certain places self identifying
as Democratic Socialists, I would have laughed at you. That was two years ago. The general
election will be two years from now. So the reality will be very different at that point,
especially if we're successful and I do think we will be successful.
Folly Assarn, two years ago, we heard a number of people saying that the Democrats needed
a left-wing Joe Rogan.
Now, some people at the time said that might be you.
Two years later, there still really isn't anyone else that's dominating in the left-wing
internet space except for you.
Why do you think the Democrats haven't had more success in that area?
Well, I think Democrats were looking for something that is never going to happen.
They wanted someone who could appeal to the masses, someone who could appeal to young
men, but also someone who wasn't going to have an independent thought, someone who would
be a party lackey, a Charlie Kirk, if you will, but for the Democratic Party.
And that's the problem.
They propped me up as a potential Joe Rogan of the left.
I told them over and over again, you can't podcast your way out of this problem.
You got to change your policies.
They didn't listen and you know, I rolled up my sleeves and got to work.
And now we're forcibly making that change by way of democracy.
It turns out they're not too fond of that either.
I have received an endless amount of attacks, not just from the Republicans
who have always despised me, but now from many establishment Democrats as well.
It's unfortunate, but I think eventually they'll come to terms with this reality
Because they can't run away from their base
For for this long
I think at some point they're going to have to reckon with the reality that many in their base many in the party
Actually want these sorts of policies and they can't consistently
demand fealty by utilizing harm reduction narratives and utilizing the electability argument in
the primaries
Which you know it worked for it worked against Francesca Hong of course in the gubernatorial run, but again
That was a very very close victory for the establishment Democrats
So that victory has probably left them wondering how an open democratic socialist got so close to winning that primary as well
In what Democrats consider to be a swing state and therefore a moderate state
The reality of the matter is none of these people are moderate none of these states are moderate or rather what people perceive as
moderate is not what the party presents as moderate. Most people associate Bernie Sanders'
policies with moderacy. They don't associate Kamala Harris' policies with moderacy. So,
that's the unfortunate dynamic for establishment Democrats. It's one that I think they're going
to inevitably have to solve because at the end of the day, none of us want what has happened so far
to continue happening in this country with another Republican ever seeing a seed of power ever again.
Son Paca, thanks for being with us on Planet America.
Of course, thank you for having me.
Well, for that, let's check it.
Quiet, incredible ABC scheduled interview with Clown, his son Paca,
Spock's outrage from News 24. This is before the interview even came out.
Now, look out, James Drosey's truth bomb, plotting for our sawt is everywhere.
Yeah, so the interview was pretty good.
That's the longer interview.
It was a part of a news package.
There was a shortened abbreviated version of that.
But you know, that's all I'm going to show you.
We're going to move on to situation monitoring and stuff like that.
But yeah, people were like the Fox News of Australia, the Rupert Murdoch properties,
all have been losing their minds over the interview even before the interview came out.
There was a lot of controversy surrounding the fact that ABC Australia would even listen
to what I have to say.
but uh that's it
you see France spoke at David Crowley rally yesterday wish it was her for governor but glad to see them uniting against Tom Tiffany yeah
I can't believe you were on TV and so terroristy. Yeah, that's how I was
Huh Joe Rogan doesn't have the ability to think for himself about anything politics included
I know Joe Rogan is is very funny, but in any case
In any case ladies and gentlemen, all right, let's move on to
situation monitoring.
Head of CENTCOM visits US as Lincoln and make questions over when it's set to return from
Middle East, okay?
There are numerous actors involved in this story.
One of them is Bradley Cooper, Brad Cooper, the admiral in charge of the Fifth Fleet,
who is unbelievably compromised for the record.
I don't know if you guys know his background, very, very pro-Israel, very interesting guy.
Not the actor, not limitless.
This is a Navy admiral.
So you got that guy, you got Dan Cain, Ray's and Cain, Trump loyalist general, head of
and of course, the guy who was put in that position because of his Trump loyalty who
now is openly ringing the alarm bells about the efficacy of this military campaign against
Iran.
Today, of course, is, today, of course, is the last day where the 60-day memorandum of
understanding that Donald Trump signed at Palace Versailles ends.
Today is the day where it ends. The Iranian side has declared victory already, established
primacy over the Strait of Hormuz. They're claiming that they've won. The American side,
on the other hand is saying something different. What the, what the America side is saying is a
whole bunch of nonsense really. And I think Donald Trump is now saying that he's going to bomb Oman
as well. I find that very strange. Trump is of course also as early as this morning called the
reporting on the horrific conditions aboard USS Lincoln to be, and this is going to come as a surprise
the many of you I'm certain. Fake news! That's what he said.
Is there enough food on the USS Lincoln?
Yeah, that was a CNN fake report. The Lincoln has been out there for a period of time, good period of time,
but over the years we've had him out there much longer. Is that at a group meeting?
Wait, is that even... I don't think that's true.
I don't think that's true. Actually, this is a definitely overextended, uh,
beyond, uh, previous iterations of conflict.
Pretty sure that's not correct, but that's, I mean, does it matter?
Does it matter? No, it does not. Yeah.
US is Lincoln's deployment is actually record setting.
He's lying about that, but it doesn't even fucking matter.
Well, came up to see me over the weekend and it was at a big group and he happened
be an animal retired. He said, I've been on ships and they're out there much longer than
that, sir. And I know people on the lake and they say it's beautifully maintained and beautifully
taken care of. And other people went out and they found out that it was fake news reporting
from CNN.
Why are they still interviewing despite all of his lies? Very interesting take. Um, because
He's the president of the United States of America and the commander of the military.
So you kind of have to do it, no matter what he says.
You can't just stop interviewing the president of the United States of America.
I understand why you're saying this.
I understand the frustrations.
And perhaps the media could be a little bit better in the direct lines of questioning
Whenever they talk to the president and maybe with their follow-ups, for example, but you can't really, you can't really not interview the president, right?
You can't just like, deep platform the president and hope he goes away. That's just not how this stuff works.
Unfortunately, there's never how this stuff works and it's never how this stuff will work.
So, yeah, but let's get back to Head of St. Com visiting USS Lincoln.
Also Jared Kushner visited the envoys of Hamas and is now talking to the Israeli leadership
as well.
The situation is chaotic in the region as always.
So there we are. And Fox is now telling the sailors to suck it up. I love that personally.
Assess Abraham Lincoln will return from the Middle East, follow reports of supply shortages
and mental health problems. The head of U.S. Central Command visited the aircraft carrier
over the weekend. Charlie Daggett has more on this part of the story. Charlie, good morning.
So what do you make of the visit? What are you hearing?
A lot, Gail. Military leadership is putting a lot of effort into telling us everything
is okay here. As you said, Sankam made a point of showing Admiral Brad Cooper's visit to
the Lincoln over the weekend. That's after families and members of Congress raised concerns
about conditions on that carrier. We've discussed that. It's roughly nine month deployment.
In a statement, Cooper called his time on the ship awe-inspiring and emphasized it has
among the lowest number of mental health cases of the Navy's 11 active aircraft carriers.
In a corresponding Wall Street Journal op-ed Sunday, he addressed the crew. He said he'd
He addressed the crew.
He said, you delivered a performance for the ages and now you're going home.
He also insisted issues related to like food, hot water and other concerns had been raised
months ago and they were resolved.
As for exactly when the ship's coming home, well, Cooper didn't get specifics and U.S.
officials I spoke to said they're not going to share the timeline for obvious reasons
for its return, which is standard for security reasons, but said it would be a matter of
weeks before the 4,000, 5,000 sailors and Marines return home.
What are the Patriots over at Fox News saying about this, by the way?
Let's take a look.
On the big weekend show, Joey Jones on concerns of service members on the USS Lincoln had
this to say.
He fired up, so I'm going to let him take the reins.
You know what I ate in Afghanistan for six months on a burner with using a little burner?
I ate ramen noodles. I had to pull the seasoning packet out because I had too much sodium in it and I put tuna packets in it.
That's what I ate and you know what?
I was happy to have it because the alternative was an MRE or something cooked by the Afghan guy who was too
Stupid to be given a gun and they let him be the cook and so if I wanted something spicy test my fate a little bit
I'd go get a bowl of whatever he made in that giant, you know, urn thing that he had.
How weak are you on TV?
TV complaining about tuna and noodles. I'm sorry. You volunteered to serve your country.
You can come back and get out of the military and do like all of these Democrat veterans
and complain about it and make commercials. Yeah. The veterans that are complaining are
all Democrat veterans. They're pussies. What happened to venerating our military man? What
happen. I mean, look, look, you know what my broader position is on this sort of stuff
where I tell people not to join the military, not going to be a fun experience for you.
And they're going to make you, if you're in the Air Force, for example, they're going
to make you, they're going to demand that you go and blow up schools and stuff, right?
It's not great.
It's horrifying.
Okay?
But to hear from the rah-rah, we love our troops' crowd.
To hear from Fox News.
To hear from the Fox News, excuse me, sir, we venerate our veterans around these parts'
crowd.
and be like, well, y'all are a bunch of pussies for complaining. Oh, wow. Now, of course, the
Republicans own that side of the conversation. They own patriotism. They own the military.
So no matter what they say, even if Donald Trump comes out and says, I like my war heroes not
captured by the Viet Cong, they don't get dinged for it, okay? They don't get dinged for it.
But I find this very strange. I find it very odd that Republicans get to talk like this
at a time when there's obviously very low morale for good reason. There's very low morale
for very good reason and it's not because they're overextended. It's also because they know that this
is pointless. They know that this is violence for the sake of violence and perhaps even more
significantly. It's not even violence for the sake of American security. It's violence against
Iranian civilians for the sake of Israel's ambitions in the region. And these guys understand it.
It's very clear, it's very clear that I think a lot of people that are in the Navy that
are sitting on board, USS Abraham Lincoln, recognize that they're doing all this for
Israel.
Okay?
Listen, and be a sellout if you want to and come up with, with a new way of doing things.
The last Democrat president that I remember that was deploying troops, Barack Obama had
the army going to Iraq on patrol bases for 15 months at a time, eating MREs.
I'm sorry, but you're a sitting duck on a patrol base in Iraq, in Afghanistan, a heck
of a lot more than you are on a fortified Navy ship sitting in the water.
You have a mighty guy aboard and I'm sorry, we did have more fun getting in firefights,
I'll say that.
But to sit there and say that it was terrible because you had a corn dog and a hot dog,
I would have traded a block of seaford to the Taliban for a hot dog by about July 2010.
I just do not understand the mentality.
This is a representation of who our military is now, and I'm not saying it is, but there's
at least enough for some of these trash rags to print about it.
If this is who we are, we're just Rome sitting here waiting to burn.
We've got nothing left.
It makes me absolutely, it makes me fume.
If he sat there and said, we didn't have any clean water to drink, we couldn't take
a shower.
I mean, well, I didn't get to take a shower for about six months, but still.
You know, something that has something to do with hygiene or, you know, like getting sick,
there was a scurvy outbreak and, you know, the guys that were missing legs were only
given wooden pegs instead of metal ones.
Then maybe I might have some sympathy.
This guy lost both his legs, by the way, which is so wild.
Like, to me, dude, you sacrificed your legs for a pointless, costly war that was incredibly
violent to the victims on the ground. And that wasn't a wake-up call for you to just
really reconsider this jingoistic attitude. I will never understand that. I will never,
ever, ever in a million years understand that, okay?
They will chew you out and spit you out.
They'll chew you up and spit you out.
You're just a cog in this, albeit very violent machine.
And there's no self-reflection.
Easy to understand.
He's making money off of it.
Yeah, but even then, do you have no decency?
Do you have no honor at all?
You don't really think about the conditions at all,
or you're just like, these guys understandably
are disturbed by the reality.
They're just waging war at the behest of Israel.
This is just costly.
This is incredibly stupid.
Of course it's gonna play a role in the morale
of the troops, the readiness of the troops.
Honor, don't pay the bills dog.
I don't know, I just, I find it very odd.
But to that little kid and whoever raised him,
Lord, help you if you ever go into a hot war
on the ground like millions of Americans have.
i can only think what a world war two veteran sitting there i mean he's not
wrong about this part at least
uh... if if we were to wage
real war a hot war on the ground with troop deployments in iran
that would be an even more spectacular failure
than what is currently unfolding in the region
so i guess he ends up finding
the truth he takes the long road there
uh... and of course from his perspective it's because the the american troops now
are all you know
scaredy cats or whatever they're like spoiled
but uh...
and this is the republican mindset man i i had the sufferer so you have to
suffer all the same i had to suffer
uh... i experience worse suffering
and you have to sit there and eat it as well. How come you, how come you get to complain?
Well, at the end of the day, it doesn't matter. People are complaining. People are not ready.
The military doesn't have the morale to conduct this, this, uh, endless war.
So who cares whether they feel that way or not. And, and I think telling them to suck it up is
not going to solve the problem, right? That's it. It's a tactical misstep. It was a bad
decision. We have to come to terms with that reality. And the faster we come to terms with
that reality, the faster we stop the hemorrhaging, the faster we stop the bleeding, the better
it will be overall for everyone. They should have asked you about this clip. What is this?
Okay, stop, man. Stop. Jesus. No jokes.
Who's lucid enough today to see that and think about the six month journey home
from fighting the toughest war we've ever fought after being there for four
years was thinking, listening to him complain like that.
I just, the secretary of the Navy put out his response.
That's my response in the story.
So they're giving their audience a talking point to dismiss soldier complaints.
it doesn't matter though
because
this
okay this
is not going to be able to change the dynamic on the ground okay
propaganda
only goes so far
when the realities of the battle
show something entirely different
and the realities of the battle
show that iran has established and maintained primacy over the straight of
hormones
it's that simple
so it doesn't matter
if anything
these additional points of conflict these additional points of crisis
only
prove
uh... only give us further evidence that we have to pack the box where you have
to pack our bags and leave
you can try to propagandize all day every day you can talk about how
wonderful the oil markets look like
You can talk about how great America is doing. You can talk about how many instances of peacemaking
has taken place already. You can just lie about it, sure. And we've seen diminishing returns,
albeit, but we've seen some success so far from Trump's communications, okay?
But ultimately, there's a finite amount of readily available oil inside of our strategic
petroleum reserves. There's only, there's only so much Trump can do on the calm side
to overcome the reality of an energy crisis that is imminent, that's getting closer and
closer by the day.
It's that simple. One of the brilliant moves that Iran pulled off that I didn't fully comprehend
at first, was clearly the destruction of the Bahrain ports. The command center for the
fifth fleet was in Bahrain. And that was one of the first targets in the Iranian mosaics,
in the Iranian mosaic defenses that were automatically triggered when America, through
perfidy
decided to decapitate the iranian leadership and kill
the the IRGC commanders as well
so
They fought back and they immediately started striking
the the fifth fleet
Navy headquarters in Bahrain
That was a major route
For the USS Abraham Lincoln and all the other carriers in the region all the other naval assets in the region
And that's where they were getting their resupply from.
They understood that if you cut off the logistics, that the people on that ship are going to
be pissed off.
I heard China fix the oil crisis by decreasing their consumption from the market.
Yes.
There's also talks that China is increasing their imports back once again.
Because we were on borrowed time the United States of America once again got bailed out by China
But there's only so much China can do in terms of cutting their imports by half
That's not there's not there's only a temporary fix right
So eventually
Eventually China is going to start increasing their imports once again and when that happens
when that happens, of course, the panic is going to set in. And there's already conversations. There's
already some observations that China has started increasing their imports. That is going to have,
that is going to have a tremendous impact on oil prices that are readily available in the Asian
markets. So you can complain about all this, but the debasification, as Ameriqanets coined
the term debasification, has had tremendous impacts. I mean, knocking out those bases
are paying dividends for the Iranian side. Knocking out the radar installations in the
region have allowed Iran to also threaten Israel with less munitions than ever before.
They don't have to lob a barrage of missiles now because it's more difficult to calculate
the trajectory from afar and establish the appropriate defenses.
And also on top of that, they basically cut off U.S. and Abraham Lincoln from their supply
routes.
Trump threatening to bomb Oman helps confirm the Iranians having successfully destroyed
U.S. logistic nodes on the Omani coast.
Those nodes were used to resupply aircraft carriers operating in the Arabian Sea.
The Omanis may have given Iran permission to target those nodes or even assistance.
Pure speculation on my part, though.
Not to be an accelerationist, but when will the Chuds here see the prices go up?
The prices are already up.
The prices are already up.
The problem is, are we effectively communicating to the MAGA base that the prices are up because
of Donald Trump?
The prices are up because Donald Trump is a loyal servant to Israel's needs in the region,
to Israel's demands in the region.
Prices are already up.
We're talking about $4 a gallon for gas.
We're going to start talking about $5 a gallon for gas.
It's already five in like, you know, woke liberal areas.
I guess is apparently falsely claiming they're they're just lying box news graphic claims falsely the average price of gas one year ago was 413 lower than it is right now
It was actually 313
314 sorry, so there
Fox news is once again
Deploying the the unbeatable undefeated technique lying. Okay. It's very very effective
But it's important for us to recognize that this is a lie, and also call it out.
I'm asking Americans for patience and paying a little bit more for gas, because the unified message from here is that gas prices will drop quickly once the operations finish.
The President says that he has to do this to make sure that Iran never gets a nuclear weapon. Jackie?
I just, I, I, all I can say is, is, you know, lying is OP.
The Republicans are always going to deploy lies.
It's important for us to, to tighten up our comms to make sure that we're combating these
lies effectively, instead of getting bogged down in weird sectarian conflict, weird ideological
delineations and weird factional infighting moments, and instead, laser in on what the
Republican Party is currently doing.
But yeah, if you look at the AAA national average gas prices, by the way, the current
average is 4.06 for regular.
A week ago it was $4, almost flat.
A month ago it was 3.9.
And a year ago it was 3.1.
So obviously they're lying about it.
Of course they're lying about it.
This is one of those moments. This is one of those moments where it doesn't really matter.
Those numbers are fake. It's on. Yeah, it's the bad numbers are always fake news. So
I guess my point is
it doesn't even matter if a year ago the gas prices were four dollars. If you can't afford four dollars
a gallon gas now, you're gonna be pissed off all the same. You understand? That's it. Even
if gas was more expensive a year ago, if gas is still expensive now, because a year ago
Donald Trump was still president, okay? If gas is still far too costly now, people are
still going to be pissed off. So you claiming, like Fox News claiming falsely that gas was
actually more expensive a year ago, doesn't change the current predicament. Do you understand?
It doesn't change the current predicament. People are still mad.
Also seems that jaw boning is failing today. The gravity is moving to Iran.
For what is worth front month, not really responding to these jaw bones anymore,
Brent up 3% today at $91. US Energy Secretary, right, we are not fully back to full oil flow
in the Middle East.
This supercut of Trump admin officials saying high gas prices were short term pain, long
term gain is now 160 days old.
This is a short term disruption for the long term gain.
Short term pain for the long term gain.
short-term pain be for long-term gain. We're going to have some short-term pain with long-term
gain. For the record, for the record, this was a major mistake with the Biden administration
as well. If you guys recall, under the Biden leadership, Americans experienced negative
real wage growth for almost a year and a half. What that means is inflation was outpacing,
the price of goods that people needed to purchase was outpacing your wages growing, right?
So basically, even if you got like a 1% increase in your wages, because inflation was 2%, 3%,
you actually were getting paid less for the same amount of work.
And instead of addressing that head-on, instead of trying to tackle this crisis, instead of
implementing price checks, for example, what Kamala Harris called price gouging,
combating price gouging, which I thought was smart.
They just simply said this was all vibes, that the economy was getting a soft landing,
that inflation was coming under control. And even if inflation came under control by the end
of the Biden administration, which there's some truth to that, right? It still doesn't matter
because people still experience negative real wage growth for a year and a half. So it doesn't
even matter if inflation came under control, right? People still lost money in the long run.
So simply trying to, uh, uh, you know, propagandize to the masses that things were going great
is not going to change their real economic realities.
Big problem. Inflation is wiping out all wage gains, says Heather Long,
Chief Economist and Navy Federal. This is why people are dipping into their savings
and or turning to credit. Yes, consumption has looked pretty good lately, but can that continue
for middle income and lower income Americans? This is a key issue. This is the key issue.
There will likely be some belt tightening ahead. Americans hate belt tightening.
Okay.
Hasan, we've come so far. Yeah.
63% support for government price controls, including majorities of every partisan affiliation, by the way. Yeah.
But yeah, these guys love communism for the record. And they did when Kamala Harris presented
it. It was a, it was a famous moment that I always go back to. Kamala Harris comes out
and says, we are going to combat price gouging at grocery stores. Okay. It's widely panned
by the New York Times economists. Everybody says this is ridiculous. Donald Trump, when
she, when, when Kamala Harris first unveiled that package, it was sitting at like 63% approval.
Donald Trump spends the next month attacking Kamala Harris's price gouging combating initiatives
as price fixing, because it is price fixing.
Let's be real, that's precisely what it is, price checks, price fixing, whatever you
want to call it.
Donald Trump comes out and says, this is Venezuela, this is Venezuela, this is communism.
Kamala Harris is a communist.
She wants to do Venezuela style price fixing, you can't have that.
By the end of that one month campaign from Donald Trump, do you know what happened to
the approvals of Kamala Harris's Groceries Price Fixing initiative?
It went from 63% approval to 75% approval.
Nobody cared.
No one cared that it was Venezuela style communism.
Everyone was like, yeah, I love that, please, more of that for me, please.
Now, of course, Kamala Harris still dropped it nonetheless.
Kamala Harris dropped it. Her comms theme was like, stop talking about this. It's your most
popular policy. You have to stop talking about this. You might actually win this race, after all.
Unbelievable. New Reuters episodes fell or just dropped. Trump approval falls to 33 percent.
Loads of his presidency. Reuters episodes pull fines. I mean, it doesn't matter. He's got the
bulwark. He's got the psychos, right? That will fall. That will fall victim to his propaganda,
no matter what they love him they think he's a god it doesn't really matter anyway wait hold on
accidentally so let's get back to trump urges iran to wave the white flag as ceasefire expires
nice 60 day ceasefire agreement with iran set to expire today chief foreign correspondent tray
President Trump and joins us
now from Tel Aviv.
Trey.
Hey guys, good morning.
I just got off the phone with
President Trump who discussed
the situation with Iran as the
60-day memorandum of
understanding expires.
The president told Fox News,
Iran should raise the light of
surrender.
It went on to say, I have no
time schedule, I'm not in a
hurry.
The president indicating that
the U.S. naval blockade is
continuing to put new economic
pressure on the Iranian regime
in regime, despite what the Iranians have said publicly.
He said they're good poker players, but they're dying, and that the midterms in the United
States have nothing to do with the president's thinking.
Now, I asked the president about these parallel talks that are taking place between Iran and
Oman about control of the Strait of Hormuz.
And the president told Fox News, if Oman gets in the way, we'll bomb the S out of them.
We went on to talk about a variety of different regional topics, including the U.S. stockpiles
of weapons that are currently stationed in the Middle East.
The president says what we've used so far is peanuts.
He went on to say the United States
has a lot of mid-level weapons,
and that many of the more advanced systems
the president says were given away by President Biden
to Ukraine, for example,
when we're talking about air defense
that is needed right now in the Middle East.
The president also spoke about US ally Israel.
Remember his son-in-law and top negotiator,
Jared Kushner, is in the region.
He met yesterday with Khalil Alhaya,
the current Hamas chief in Egypt. And the president said that they have a different
channel with Hamas and that ultimately they are giving up their guns, talking about the
demilitarization of the Gaza Strip. I asked the president about the upcoming Israeli elections
in October, and President Trump told Fox News, I think it's most appropriate for me to stay out
of Israeli elections, but I may endorse somebody. And so a lot of headlines here,
the president talking about the latest in terms of the Strait of Hormuz and the Iranian regime
that at this moment appears unwilling to reach a diplomatic solution with the United States.
Why is this reporter in Tel Aviv? That's Tel Aviv tray, baby. What do you mean? When is he not in
Tel Aviv? He lives in Tel Aviv full-time. Yeah. So, obviously, I don't want there to be an oil
shock where pro-war people are going to have to subsidize gas anyway, otherwise their business
owner fans are going to shit their pants when the shock finally comes through.
Yeah, the problem with oil subsidies, by the way, or the problem with the American economy
there is that we obviously are an oil exporter nation. So we have enough oil to potentially
overcome a shock. The problem is, the rest of the world is fucked at that point. And we can't
do that. If we're the hegemon, we have a different set of responsibilities. As the hegemon, we can't
just destroy or try to destroy Iran and then end up destroying the entire world's energy markets
and then basically take our ball home and leave. We live in this world, okay? We have a fairly
fragile, fairly delicate system of international commerce, international trade. Our job, our
primary responsibility is to protect international trade, whether that be shipping lanes, which we
are showing we're completely insufficient in protecting in the Strait of Hormuz and even
in the Babel-Mondab Strait, ironically enough. And it's also about this delicate system continuing
without too much friction. And now that we're out of ammo, we have to find the most gracious
exit we possibly can. And it's very strange that the Trump administration refuses to back
down as though we got more magazines out there. We emptied out the clip. We're done. We're
out of bullets. So even if we were to decide, you know, we're, we're, we're no longer going
to be shipping to our European partners, for example, we're no longer to get to be, we're
no longer going to be selling oil to the Asian markets. That would be bedlam. Okay. Like,
what do you do in that situation? What do you, what do you do in that situation where
like we're just deciding we caused the crisis, we shut down the straight up
hormones, and we can't fix it, and we're not even making up for it.
We're not even going to sell you the oil now because we need it for ourselves.
Otherwise, Donald Trump is going to have major domestic issues.
And we're just no longer shipping oil to anybody else.
How do you think the rest of the world would treat us at that point?
How do you think the rest of the world would look at America as the hegemonic superpower, as the world police?
What do you think the impact of that would look like for the European markets, for our Asian allies that many of, I mean, that we rely on for manufacturing, ironically enough.
So that's the other side of this story as well.
So even if we were to shut off our oil transfers, our oil exports to the Asian market,
even if we were to restrict the Asian market sales so that we can keep the oil here to engage in some kind of domestic price stability,
if we were to do that, then the price of everything else would collapse. The price of everything else was skyrocket.
Because the Asian markets are still necessary for manufacturing.
So, there's no way out of this.
And there hasn't been a way out of this since March, since April.
And yet, we just keep leaning into it further and further.
We'd be the hegemonic super hoarder.
The entire world would hate us.
Form a secret cabal of nations that exclude us from the world.
Dollars be damned.
It's just it's over at this point. I mean, I think it's I think American supremacy is over regardless
It's just gonna take some time for people to to recreate
new security relationships
It's gonna take some time for people to to come to terms with that reality. Obviously, it's very difficult to to
Restructure the world overnight. It's not gonna happen overnight, but
But that is the reality no matter what we say or think
What we fail to comprehend states guys
Trey it also looked like we got an answer from the president about
What is party number one for the United States?
It is a bad assessment everyone thinks that everything is contingent on the west side of the straight when the eastern side
Has never been more active as sack said there's a reason why the markets are stable stop exaggerating
dog
I look at the shipments
okay
First of all, there's far more in the tank than we previously thought there was, as far as the
strategic petroleum reserves, okay? But these are trackable shipments. And if you look at the eastern,
if you look at the southern coast, not the eastern coast, but the southern coast, if you look at Omani,
the Omani route, and you look at the Iranian route, the number of ships that are crossing
are down from 100 ships to like 8. It is at an all-time low. The U.S. oil reserves are
at its lowest point since 1983. Why do you think that's happening?
Why do you think that is happening? Like, where is the oil going then?
No, what you can say, what you can say is China slashing its imports by half
have played a tremendous role in creating some kind of market stability, okay? You can
say that, and that is the assessment. That is the common assessment now, and people are
coming to terms with that reality. China, once again, bailing out the United States
of America, just like China bailed out the United States in 2008, they're doing it again.
And it's so glaringly obvious that even YouTubers that previously have probably made extensive
videos about China's imminent collapse are basically glazing China.
So China's bailing us out again, and it's not just for us.
China is bailing itself out because China needs stability to continue trade.
China needs to keep manufacturing goods and selling goods, and if the Asian markets collapse
because they no longer have any oil and they can't keep up with their energy needs, then
they're no longer going to be able to purchase Chinese goods.
it's actually for China's benefit as well. World stability is beneficial for China.
You can also say there's a lot more spot trading. There are a lot more oil tankers out there than
we previously thought. There's shadow fleets and there's also truth to that as well.
Well, right, this has also allowed countries to continue receiving oil shipments and has
played a role in the stability of the oil markets.
But at the end of the day, the United States Strategic Petroleum Reserve stocks are diminishing.
They're diminishing.
These are marginal, these are tiny, marginal instances of price stability.
And the major reason for a continued price stability in spite of the strata of hormones
being closed is because of countries dumping their strategic petroleum reserves.
They're utilizing their strategic petroleum reserves, the United States is doing the same.
There is no way to overcome 20% of the entire world's energy supply being crippled down
to a fraction, okay?
That's it.
We're nearing critical levels that will, that will, will possibly destroy salt, caverns,
stability.
That's where we're at.
That's also precisely the reason why the Trump administration did the memorandum of
understanding. So we got to fucking put an end to it. That's it. It's that simple.
As I have, as I've explained over and over again, like
international capitalism is actually a very delicate system of trade.
Okay, it's far more fragile than people think, just in time manufacturing, just in time logistics,
That plays a role in this as well.
And people refuse to recognize that reality.
It only works if there's no one spoiling it.
If it only works if there's no one waging war directly on these trade routes.
routes.
Fair, but it�s petrodollar and the UAE for Jaira has never been this backlog.
The current workarounds help by time but won�t solve the Hormuz problem, and some ship-to-ship
transfers may involve Iraqi oil or even Emirati vessels transiting with Iran�s green light.
But reserve drawdowns continue and tankers aren�t returning. Iran�s leverage remains.
This is from HFI research, trade of Hormuz over the last 48 hours, tanker attacks continue.
Okay, this is from seven days ago. Iran's demands for opening the Shredda Hormuz are
a non-starter for the U.S. As I covered over the weekend, Iran has now added Palestine,
Yemen, and Iraq along with Lebanon for a complete ceasefire as a condition. In addition, it
also wants compensation for war damages and the MOU violation. On the shipping front,
Oman lane transits continue, but here's the catch. AdNok UAE ships are being attacked
with four of them getting hit last week and another possible attack today
adnox rescue boat was sent out but no other confirmation on the attack has been
announced so far
what's interesting is this iraqi crude is getting through the oman lane prosperity
tankers carrying iraqi crude have not been hit why simple in the past iran is
exported some of its oil
through iraq to evade sanctions
is one of the main reasons why we are not seeing all the tankers get hit through
the oman lane
but it seems clear from the recent escalation patterns that whatever secret
deal Iran had with UAE is all but over. Here's the other side of the story. And Trita Parsi
is recognizing that as well. That there might be a third round. There might be a third round
now, because Iran is now on an offensive posture, at least in its communications. Iran, up until
the first time where it set the pacing by attacking the US air base in Jordan, Iran
always took a defensive posture, said if you attack us, we are going to attack in kind.
going to respond in kind. Then they said, if you attack us, we will retaliate two-fold.
We will retaliate against the Gulf nations. We will retaliate against your bases and your
assets, and we will punish you. Now they're saying, if the situation is not solved, if
If America doesn't actually give us what we want, we might go on the offensive.
Trudiparsi has noticed that change of pace as well.
Yes, Mosheba also appointed hardliners into key positions of power just for that.
Iran not only has the leverage, but Iran is now actually going to possibly increase its
leverage, increase the stress, increase the pressure, and possibly increase the pain.
Mr. DeParsi says, I'm increasingly convinced that there will be a third round of the US-Israel-Iran
war. It is not inevitable. But the signals I'm picking up from the two sides, as well
as from some key GCC states, leaves me quite pessimistic. Tehran believes it has the military
edge and is openly discussing going on the offensive instead of merely responding to
American attacks. By that, Iran will not only have rested control over the scope and geography
of the war from the US, but also it's timing. I mentioned this before, Iran engaging in
a preemptive strike on US bases was a noticeable change in the way that they operate.
It was important because for the first time ever Iran said, we will set the pace and you
will have to retaliate. And America actually didn't retaliate, if you recall, because the
conversation in the united states of america has revolved around
the fact that we're out of bullets
we're at a standoff munitions we've depleted our standoff munitions to
even engage in offensive strikes on iranian soil iranian anti air defenses
are far more clever than we previously thought
so we can't use
our gravity bombs
and our uh... uh...
our fighter jets over iranian airspace we have not been able to establish
iranian air
superiority we have not established iranian air supremacy
and
that is the reason why we keep expending our standoff munitions the
tomahawk missus that we lob
from
thousands of miles away at times
or even the attack comes that we are deploying from kawait
this puts kawait
in a real bad real dangerous position
and yet we're still utilizing the attackings that we have in Kuwait because those are the only ones
that are in striking distance of Iran. Why are we using attackings from Kuwait
and putting Kuwait in a very dangerous position? Because Kuwait could be potentially invaded by
Iranian conventional forces. Why are we doing that? We're doing that because we're desperate.
Okay? We're doing that because we've depleted our tomahawk missiles, so the only thing we can utilize in the region that has striking capabilities on Iranian soil are the attackings that we have in Kuwait.
This is part of the reason why Iran has threatened to invade Kuwait militarily. Okay?
That's another aspect of this. So if Iran is actually going to go on the offensive, Iran
could potentially go into Kuwait. What do we do then? Because Kuwait does not have the
the conventional forces to withstand an Iranian retaliatory attack.
So that's one card that they hold.
If they want to increase the pressure, Tehran believes it has the military edge and is openly
discussing going on the offensive instead of merely responding to American attacks.
By that Iran will not only have rested control of the scope of the geography of the war,
but also his timing, so that's important. In the United States, on the other hand, an
increasingly frustrated Trump not only promises to annex a straight he can't open, but also
threatens the bomb Oman, even though Muscat, by all accounts, has become very helpful to
the U.S.'s broader strategy, meaning it is increasingly representing the U.S. position
in the talks rather than its own, given it was Oman's previous compromise proposals that
prompted the first threat by Trump to bomb America's own mediator. And of course, Trump has
formally endorsed the Pakistan-Saudi-Turkey defense pact, while Supreme Leader Mustafa
Hamane has reshuffled much of the top Iranian leadership. So once again, we have lots to discuss.
So what do we do?
What do we do?
You mean Iran is taking Kuwait?
I'm saying that's one option that they have agitated in the direction of, okay?
I'm not saying it's a guarantee.
I'm simply stating that there have been some hardliners on the Iranian side that have spoken
about potentially doing this to Kuwait.
of the reason for why is because Kuwait is one of the only Gulf nations that is consistently
allowing the American forces to attack Iran directly.
Analytica Camilla says, remember when I pointed out that the Iran armies are in fact strong
enough to Nick Kuwait about a month ago.
Okay. Arab intelligence officials have picked up evidence, including communication between
Iran and militia allies in countries such as Yemen and Iraq, of a strategic shift inside
of the country's hardline leadership to get their forces ready to widen the war and raise
the cost for the United States.
Officials familiar with the findings say alarming, weaker Gulf countries like Kuwait, Iran's
Those leaders are increasingly talking about offensive operations on enemy territory.
See?
And no, this is an act of desperation, Analytica Camilla says.
We're literally begging them to agree to our bribes and end the war right now.
From the perspective of virtually everyone, Iran has already won this war.
They're currently angling to push for a larger victory.
You know that line from Ender's Game, the book that's mandatory reading at every American
military school colonel graph let me tell you why you keep on why you kept on
kicking him you had already won ender wigan knocking him down won the first
fight I wanted to win all the next ones too
the idea that Iran is currently suffering tremendous blows by the
American blockade that it cannot withstand that Iran has a very limited
amount of time and the time actually favors our side is completely fucking
ridiculous. Iran has the leverage. Iran has the advantageous position. And every day that
goes on, where the Strait of Hormuz is still under its control, which it will forever be
under its control, they're never going to give that up. Right? Why should they? That
makes no sense. But every day that goes on, that the Strait is still blocked by Iran,
whether America says we are blockading the Strait of Hormuz ourselves as well, doesn't
fucking matter. Okay. Iran gains more leverage, because the
American position worsens. And not only that, but now Iran
wants to escalate. Iran wants to show the world that it actually
controls all the cards. It actually holds all the cards in
this conversation. So it's going to push his advantage further
by potentially going on the offensive against one of the weaker golf allies.
Not offensive in the sense that they're going to continue lobbing missiles, they've been doing that,
but offensive in the sense that they might actually push their advantage into Kuwait.
Oh, thank you. No, it's fine. No, it's fine. Oops.
What happened is just like it was oh damn okay wait can you give me the other packets from the
fridge the two different ones not these I don't want you to get to early zone.
My food is here.
Let's just stop him from just flying a nuke. Okay, the real truth nuke about the potential
utilization of a nuke is that there is no guarantee that a nuke stops Iran. Do you understand? I kept
repeatedly explaining this over and over again, given that the Iranian positions are so hardened,
given that the Iranian defenses don't work the way that you think they do,
Anouk is not going to change that dynamic.
If anything, if anything, it'll probably piss them off further.
There's also obviously the violation of the nuclear taboo.
So if you're going to go out on a limb, if you're going to violate a pre-established
like Cold War era taboos that have gone on for so long and changed the entire course
of history like that, you have to make it worth it.
You have to make it worthwhile.
And given that there's no guarantee that Iran will stop if they're nuked, that's not worthwhile
at all.
That on true social?
Yeah, the president posted on true social and it was very clear that ensuring that Iran
never has a nuclear weapon is the number one priority for the United States.
I asked the president about the communication with the Iranians, and interestingly, President
Trump confirmed to Fox News that there is a back channel with the IRGC.
These are the hardline officials inside of Iran, and that the United States and officials
in Washington are speaking directly with IRGC officials in Iran.
This is another indication that the Trump administration is not just dealing with the
political echelon in Tehran, but also some of these hardliners that have launched attacks
against U.S. forces and of course in the Strait of Hormuz.
But the critical headline here is the President's patience as it relates to dealing with the
Iranians.
He said there is no timeline.
And so the 60-day window that is expiring today is largely irrelevant in terms of the
President's thinking as it relates to Iran.
And again, he indicated the United States has a lot of mid-level weapons to use if they're
needed in the future.
But he calls on the Iranians to raise the white flag of surrender.
And again, as this moves forward here, there are these parallel talks taking place between
Iran and Oman.
The president warning Oman not to get in the way of the U.S. naval blockade and the efforts
to control the Strait of Hormuz.
And we know that that naval blockade is costing the Iranian regime hundreds of millions of
dollars each day.
And this economic pressure coupled with the se-
Yeah, this is copium.
This is American copium.
It costs far more to American supremacy than it costs in the interim to Iran to keep the
straight block.
Okay?
It blows my mind that they continue with this narrative too.
But is it actually, is it actually bad for Iran?
Yes, certainly.
I think they've found like different methods of dealing with it.
I suspect it's the bribes that they receive from the United Arab Emirates.
That's like trying to make up for the, for the economic impact of the American
blockade.
There's no way you can actually make up for all of it though.
It's very interesting, you just keep seeing planes fly in from the United Arab Emirates
Randomly into Tehran. I wonder what's going on there
But again
Doesn't matter
Anxions that are expected to be announced this week by the US Treasury
It's adding more domestic pressure on the regime and those officials in Tehran to change their behavior possibly come back to the negotiating table
as a lot of rhetoric is still floating around the Middle East.
You know, one thing I have not heard of, Trey, is about the Red Sea and the Houthi rebels.
I know them and Saudi Arabia are exchanging attacks, but is the Red Sea considered open?
At this moment, there is still quite a bit of traffic passing through the Red Sea.
But last week, the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen did launch a number of attacks on vessels there.
They've also been targeting the Mocha port.
This is a government-owned port from the Yemeni government.
and they hit it with so many missiles and drones over the weekend that the
Port Authority stopped all commercial activity at that location.
Remember President Trump warned the Houthis against getting directly involved
in the fight and the president also spoke about the Iranian proxies across the
region. He spoke about Hezbollah in southern Lebanon and also about Hamas
inside Gaza. He said specifically about Gaza and again this is important in
relation to the meeting that is taking place as we speak in Jerusalem between
Jared Kushner and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, he said the Israelis should not be striking
in Gaza because he says Hamas has agreed to lay down their weapons after that meeting
yesterday in Egypt between senior Hamas leadership and Jared Kushner along with the American
mediators on the ground.
And so, again, there's a lot of moving parts here, but it's all linked because when we
talk about the Iranian regime, they spent decades funding and supporting these proxies
across the region, whether it be in Gaza, in southern Lebanon, or inside Yemen.
the president did have something very positive to say about Israel.
Yeah, remember when the conversation was about the hostages?
And everyone was like, oh my God, why don't we simply just why doesn't
Hamas simply release the hostages and Israel will stop and then they did
and Israel didn't stop.
And then they were like, well, why doesn't Hamas disarm and then Israel
will stop and we were like, what does disarmament even mean?
right? These are like small arms. They're not, they don't have missile launchers.
Now Hamas did that and Israel still doesn't want to stop. Hmm, interesting.
In terms of their fighting capability, he said they fight very well alongside our forces,
again describing them as the little brother to the United States, understanding that if any
combat operations do resume in the Middle East, they would be led by the United States of America
and of course supported in part by Israel and the Air Force here.
All right, Tray, thank you so much.
That's right.
The President said on Friday they're not paying their soldiers,
they're not paying their police, and they have 350% inflation.
It's costing them a lot every day.

The Fox News exclusive with top Trump envoy Jared Kushner
As the 60-day memorandum of understanding between the United States and Iran expires,
and he meets with the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu today.
This is the two sides discuss the demilitarization of Gaza.
A chief foreign correspondent, Trey Yanks, just spoke to Jared Kushner.
He reports live from Tel Aviv now with the latest.
Hydra.
Hey, John.
Good afternoon.
Special Envoy Jared Kushner back in the Middle East where he met today with Israeli Prime
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, after speaking with Hamas leadership yesterday in Egypt,
the special envoy telling Fox News that the roadmap to demilitarized Gaza was discussed
with new breakthroughs.
Take a listen.
It's really Prime Minister Netanyahu recently called the Board of Peace Roadmap unacceptable.
Are you asking the Prime Minister to change his thinking?
I think that was his perception of the plan as he got it.
I think today we had a very, very dude.
Until America changes its framework and looks at Israel as an antagonist,
nothing is going to change.
Israel is not an ally.
It's just not.
It has diverging interests.
It's interests are not our interests. It's that simple
They have played the role of a spoiler over and over again, and they will continue it will continue to do so
Of course Jared Kushner himself is like super pro Israel regardless, so all he's doing is
Trying to maintain some sort of posture as though he's a
a reasonable party here, an impartial party here.
But is that, is that simple?
It's pretty remarkable that D.B. Spat directly in Trump's face after he announced a peace
deal with Hamas in the White House has nothing to say about it.
Yeah.
Benjamin Netanyahu is literally doing the exact same thing he did to Joe Biden right
now, but to Donald Trump instead.
The Starming Hamas, their web is going to the U.S., not the agreed upon Palestinian
Transitional Authority while continuing occupation siege bombings and targeted killings. What are Palestinians complaining about?
Good meeting we were there for almost four hours with him and his team going through all the different details
I think there were some valid concerns that they raised that we were able to address and
And we were able to go through some of the misunderstandings and misinformation that's been out about it as well
I mean certain things like we're very committed to the fact that we have a plan to rebuild Gaza
but we will not allow Gaza to be rebuilt until the demilitarization occurs.
Nobody wants to put more money into a place that's gone on for so long
until if it's just going to be taken over by terrorists or blown up again.
We're also not going to restrict Israel's right to defend itself if there are any imminent threats,
and so we have to clarify what that means.
We can be seeing progress in as little as 30 days,
hopefully starting to take some of the weapons out
and hopefully filling in some of the tunnels as well next 60 to 90 days as well.
So progress could come quite soon, but we do need cooperation from both sides, and and we're gonna hopefully get through
But we've made a lot of progress to get here for Israel
We think this is a win-win situation because if Hamas actually gives over the weapons and the tunnels, you know
Willingly over the next 60 90 days that obviously would be the elimination of a huge security threat for Israel almost an unthinkable
Achievement and if they don't fall through now in their commitment everyone will see that that they're not genuine about peace and then Israel will have a lot more
or support from the U.S. and others
to go and finish the job in the appropriate way.
You met with Hamas officials yesterday.
Do you think they're genuine about peace?
I mean, they said all the right things,
but obviously it's very, very hard to trust
a terrorist organization that committed
these terrible atrocities,
but we had a very cordial meeting
and they said all the right things.
And so we're gonna give them a chance to perform,
but it's gonna have to be based on actions and steps.
And I hope it will be true.
is so awesome to the main envoy dealing with the American sides positions is Steve Wittkopf
and Jared Kushner. Both literally have open commitments and open loyalty and open trade
relationships with not only the Gulf but certainly with Israel.
This man is not impartial.
Special Envoy Kushner also discussing the Memorandum of Understanding with Iran that
expires today.
and Trump told Fox News early this morning
that there is currently a back channel
between administration officials
and IRGC leadership in Iran.
John Jackie.
All right, Trey Yanks with the latest from Tel Aviv.
Good job with Jared Kushner, Trey.
Thanks so much, Jack.

In Gaza this weekend,
they mourned the death of a 14-year-old boy
they said were shot by Israeli troops.
Suhail Shalouf's mother says he was walking to his aunt's house,
close to the so-called yellow line,
the front line for the soldiers who occupy most of the Gaza Strip.
They installed the yellow line, but it's not a yellow line. It's a line of death.
Bullets reach our tents. What is our crime?
Israel recently scaled back military operations here,
under pressure from the Trump administration,
which is trying to move forward a plan for peace.
Though last week Prime Minister Netanyahu rejected the plan.
And today he was focused on his own re-election, voting for candidates for his liquid party's
parliamentary slate, with polls suggesting that liquid could lose a third of its seats
come October's vote, which makes Netanyahu potentially ever more reliant on a coalition
with ultra-nationalists who don't want peace but war.
I think targeted assassinations should be carried out in Gaza, taking down 30 to 40
every night. Not just those who pose an immediate threat. There are people there who are not
worthy of life. They shouldn't live. They're not even people. I'm giving them a compliment
by calling them people.
language makes Jared Kushner's mission to israel unlikely to achieve
yeah my bad for saying these guys are fucking nazis dude
like literally my mistake guys can we talk about the feelings can we talk about how you
received that information when i say this guy's a fucking nazi you're like whoa whoa whoa excuse me
He's Jewish. How dare you? Well, sorry. He's literally Adolf Hitler. Sorry. Okay. Actually, not sorry at all. It's just the truth.
Yeah, playing that Ben Kivir clip is anti-semitic, saying the name of his party in English, instead
of just saying, Otsma Yehudit is anti-semitic, because his party is called the Jewish power
party, you know, like white power. That's literally it. That's the whole point.
He was filmed with President Herzog today, but notably not with Netanyahu himself.
An Israeli official said there was no breakthrough on Gaza's future, that the Israelis would
not withdraw and would continue their attacks when necessary.
So though Mr Kushner met Hamas' new leader in Egypt yesterday, there seems barely any
sign of progress.
Meanwhile, in the West Bank, two Palestinian families have been trapped on this windy hillside
for more than a week.
The village of Kusra, under siege from Israeli settlers, also under the protection of occupying
Israeli soldiers.
Though for Aisha Hassan, it doesn't feel like protection at all.
The soldiers are stationed at my brother Yusuf's house, she says.
They keep yelling and singing all day.
On Saturday, Aisha managed to film an Israeli soldier who had moved in next door.
While the families inside remained pawns in a dangerous political game.
Who are you talking about? Pawns are a dangerous political game.
This is state-sponsored terrorism. It's a state-sponsored program.
It's not a fucking dangerous political game. It's just Nazis doing Nazi shit.
Again, this is why I'm not so precious about the utilization of the term Nazi, even though
it frustrates many, right?
Oh, dude, what the fuck?
Well, don't you know the, don't you know that the Nazis have a very special significance
in Jewish history?
It's like, okay, well, then don't fucking act like Nazis, man, sorry, sorry, not sorry.
What the fuck do you mean?
I'm not going to back down from accurately explaining the situation and leaning into
correct comparisons.
Israeli settlers who have been besieging a Palestinian American family in the village
of Kusra for eight consecutive days are casually shouting and shaking hands with Israeli soldiers
outside the family's home.
We were told by the U.S. Ambassador to Israel that the Israeli Army was going to remove
these settlers.
Eight days later, they're still here, and instead of removing them, Israeli soldiers
are standing alongside them, chatting with them, and shaking their hands and protecting
them.
A battle for this land, and for power, because Israel's prime minister hopes to win reelection
with the backing of Jewelry.
By the way, what you're seeing here is literally their ambition for Gaza as well.
That's why they're trying to disarm Gaza, no, so you understand.
The West Bank is what happens when Palestinians are disarmed, Gaza is what happens when Palestinians
Settlers are armed and retaliate.
Head-zei-wan tells you lose, such is the nature of settler colonialism.
Settlers who also live here.
This morning the settlers returned to the outskirts of Kuzhra in defiance of the Israeli
the army, which last week declared this a closed military zone. And the handshakes exchanged
between the soldiers-
Don't know what you do, don't call these guys imbred by the way, because if you do that,
you will get yelled at endlessly by mainstream media that unironically turns a blind eye
to these kinds of atrocities with regular frequencies. Actually a far graver problem
If you were to call these redneck motherfuckers in bread, so I would never do that. I would never do that. God forbid
You know
It's crazy
We're hardly reassuring to the Palestinian who filmed this.
My brother said in this video, that's terrifying, that just happened like an hour ago, and they
need the soldier, they're shaking hands with the soldiers, that's just happening today.
nor does it reassure Louis Riddie, a Palestinian American from Ohio, who's flown into Israel
in the hope of joining his besieged family in the West Bank.
So I'm terrified. I'm asked to reuse as official the embassy to provide me with protection
and it will dissuade us permanently from our village in my area.
Tonight Mr. Riddie reached Khuzra Village and his relatives, a small win for American
officials who had urged Israel to intervene, but it's not enough to advance Donald Trump's
plans.
Dog.
They literally apprehended and detained Rolkana.
It don't matter.
If you're Palestinian, it don't matter.
It doesn't matter if you're an American numbers person and not palestinian at all.
If you're insufficiently pro-Israel in that moment, Israel can just kill you, do whatever
the fuck they want, and America will not defend you.
It's a peace in the Middle East.
Jonathan Rodman reporting.
Mima Donald Trump has apparently opened up a whole new front in his war with Iran, selecting
to bomb Alman if they got in the way of his peace talks, while Tehran has threatened to
go on the offensive. Well, let's get more now from our US editor, Anushka Astana in Washington.
Anushka.
You know, in many ways, I think there are parallels between what is happening in Israel
Gaza and what is happening in relation to Iran. In both cases, we had deals announced
to much fanfare, but then you realize that really they were only the beginning of negotiations
which increasingly seemed intractable in both cases.
I mean, on terms of Iran, the deal that was signed at the Palace of Versailles,
the memorandum of understanding, it had a 60-day deadline which runs out today.
But in truth, that deadline is irrelevant by now because the deal fell apart long ago.
Both sides basically say that it is dead.
The Iranians say that the negotiations never even began.
And in terms of the Strait of Hormuz, which was at the heart of it,
Well, on that, there has been no real movement.
Now, Donald Trump was speaking to Fox News today,
and I can't quite get where his head is at,
because he gave contradictory statements.
On the one hand, he said,
I'm not in a hurry.
This can go as long as we want it to.
On the other hand, he said that Iran should lift
the white flag of surrender,
and he was threatening, as you say, to an ally, to Amman.
Amman and Iran have been talking about
how to get ships transiting through.
which ally around Israel Trump threatened to bomb.
No, uh, she's talking about Oman.
Oman is a Oman is a neutral party in this.
And is a very important mediator.
So of course, Donald Trump is now threatening to blow them up.
I'm trying to see the parallels. Yeah, the parallels are simple. America and Israel do
not give a shit about a real ceasefire. That's the only parallel here. They just want complete
utter domination and humiliation of the opponents. The problem is with Hamas, Hamas obviously
has a very limited capacity to fight back. They also care about Palestinians being slaughtered.
Israel is shown over and over again. It does not care. It will literally kill as many Palestinians
as possible to apply pressure to Hamas. And therefore, therefore, Israel can do whatever
it wants in that negotiation process, but in Iran, America can't do anything.
talking bro you lost your train of thought no I got a bunch of text messages pulled up
my phone for the first time.
With the straight Donald Trump basically said to this Fox News reporter that he is prepared
to bomb the S out of Iman.
Now I was talking to Alan Eyre today he was a former negotiator on the Iran deal in 2015
he says the way that Donald Trump is speaking is probably a sign of his own frustration
No one really expects America to bomb Oman, but it is a sign of what is real,
that there are no good options right now for the president.
And that's not the only ally he's protecting, too.
That's not true.
There is one option, it's the only option, it is retreat.
Hold the fucking L, dude.
Hold the goddamn L, hold the goddamn L, hold it, hold it.
I mean, I like music for it. I have a broad I have a broad palette
Okay, I have a broad palette. Do you understand? I mean, I like music for it
I'm getting cooked by fantano. That's it. I'm joining the julienne cause of Blanca's hate train
Julian, give me money. I'll cook his ass. I'll cook his bald ass, Julian.
I love the strokes. I love stroking. My enemies are victims of strokes. Strokes have played a big
big role in my life.
Stop larping, little guppy, we know you don't like music, I love music.
is my life.
I want to continue.
If you are an ally of the US, line up right now because Donald Trump is quite frustrated
at the moment and his frustration right now is being aimed at South Korea.
It began with a true social post in which he basically said that he doesn't want to
signal hostility to North Korea and so he wants to scale back on joint military exercises
between the US and South Korea that have been going on since the 1950s.
Okay, here's the thing
Bro, we don't have the smoke
Like we can't even fight against a country that doesn't have nukes North Korea has nukes
What is the conversation?
Okay, what is even the conversation that we're entertaining? Okay?
What the fuck?
The whole point with Iran is like, oh, they can't ever have nukes. Why? Because if they have nukes, they become North Korea
Yeah, it's over the pivot to Asia is done wake up
Western analysts need to wake the fuck up to that reality yesterday. Okay
We don't have bullets man. We don't have bullets. We don't have the smoke. We don't have the logistics. We don't have shit
It's paper tiger moment. It's paper tiger moment. That's what it is.
That these demands are even on the table, however unrealistic and vague they are shows
how badly Trump has lost this war. Breaking Iran is reportedly given the
United States a few weeks, ultimately to meet its demands or it will shift to a fully offensive
Pasha and launch a timely and precise military attack per Reuters citing a senior
Iranian official Iran's demands 300 billion in reconstruction funds full release of frozen
Iranian assets lifting the US naval blockade end of the war on across all fronts which includes
Yemen Lebanon Iraq and Gaza
Just so you know permanent resolution on the Shredda Hormuz he emphasized that Iran has
reportedly decided to shift from a defensive to a fully offensive posture.
Thomas Genoux says that these demands are even on the table, however unrealistic and
vague they are shows how badly Trump has lost his war.
Matthew Pity says these demands aren't on the table, they were things that the US signed
on to voluntarily as a part of the peace memorandum.
The shock is coming from the fact that we can't just bad faith yank the rug from under
Iran like we did with other troublesome natives.
Yeah, we signed the treaty. We just didn't want to follow through on it.
Are they including Ukraine? No. No, I'm glad that they are even making a mention of Palestine.
The fuck do you mean are they including? I mean, give it another month. Maybe they'll
include Ukraine too, honestly, because if this shit continues, they might, they might
include Washington DC. They might be like, give us Washington DC, please. Because the
way this is unfolded so far, the way this is unfolded so far, every week that we just
refuse to deal with Iran, they gain more leverage. Fuck it, dude. They're going to be like, give
me North Dakota. Iran is literally going to be like, you have to give us North Dakota.
We just keep going for what? Two more months? Three more months?
They're asking me like, all right, we've added more demands now.
North Dakota is ours.
Next month, they're going to say no more invasion of Cuba.
No one wants North Dakota. There's a, there's a access pipeline there.
That's why I said North Dakota is ours.
We know what to do with those pipelines.
That's what they're going to say.
Be clear in his true social post
that he's angry with South Korea
because they did not support him on Iran.
In the last half an hour,
he's been asked about this again at the White House.
Have a listen to his response.
I called him, I said,
would you like to give us a little hand?
We don't need help with Iran.
And if you'd like, give us a hand with Iran.
He said, no thanks.
And I said, we have 39,000 soldiers over there
You're guarding you from Kim Jong-un, your next door neighbor, and you're not going to
help us on a very easy military operation in Iran?
Beach of it's so easy, why haven't you done it?
Like what is South Korea supposed to do, man?
What is South Korea supposed to do?
You just admitted in that same statement that they rely on American troops for national
defense.
So what are they supposed to do?
You just said, oh, we got all of our troops there.
And that's how they stay safe.
So what are they supposed to do?
This kind of shit is so dumb.
That's strange.
No, no, we'd rather not get involved.
And say, well, why are we involved in helping you?
For years and years, I've said that the American,
the American military industrial complex
ran a protection racket.
And for years and years, shit-lib NATO Andes told me that I was a fucking asshole for this truthful statement.
Now you got Trump basically giving the game away, openly saying the quiet part out loud.
This is not unique to Donald Trump.
The only thing unique to Trump is that he's putting the comms out.
He's just openly stating what the situation truly looks like.
Okay?
Were they wrong?
Yes, they were wrong.
They thought that there was some NATO Atlanticists like higher order principle here.
If there is none, it's a fucking, it is a protection racket, dude, it is a protection racket.
Always has been and always will be.
In any case, my controversial opinion that a lot of people have gotten frustrated by
is the fact that this is actually one of the unique instances where Donald Trump isn't
doing the wrong thing. As far as no longer doing the military, no longer doing the military
exercises in the Korean Peninsula, that's a good thing. It's not a bad thing. There's no pivot
to Asia, okay? It's over. It's done. Give it up. Our dreams of pivoting to Asia and saber-rattling
against the great Chinese menace died in the waters of the Strait of Hormuz. They died in the
Persian Gulf, they're dead. You cannot resuscitate those dreams. Okay. You have to understand
this. I will repeat this till the cows come home. I will repeat this till the end of time.
It's fucking over. Okay. It's over. It was our very own Suez canal crisis moment. Okay.
done. In any case, Jeremy LaFredo's criticisms here are not incorrect. The Democratic Party
is left-wing after spending years goading Trump, even though I love Pramila Jayapal.
Congresswoman Jayapal has defended me. This I don't agree with. So our U.S. wannabe dictator
or authoritarian ruler has decided this democracy in South Korea for authoritarian rules in
North Korea. Like, it's a very overly simplistic narrative. They want to ding Trump. I understand
it. But this is low key. One of the only instances of Donald Trump's foreign policy attitude,
even before our dreams of pivoting to Asia died in the Shreddov Hormuz, even before then
Trump won. He did the same thing. Trump won. He did the same exact thing. He said, I am
going to deescalate. We're no longer going to do military. We're no longer going to do
the military stuff, the military campaigns, and all the fucking practice, and all the shit that
we're doing, the Asian Peninsula, we're no longer going to do it. The Korean Peninsula, we're no
longer going to do it. That was good. That ultimately was good, because when you actually
pull back from that show of force, North Korea is far more responsive to dealing with South Korea
directly. This kind of military theater is exactly what they oppose, is exactly what they hate.
When there's all of these drills that take place, when these drills take place, North Korea does
their own dry fire drills, right? It's not good for safety. It's not good for security in the
region. It's not good for finding a just and manageable conclusion to this endless crisis.
It's a waste of money. It's a waste of time. It's a waste of fuel.
The only reason why you do it is to galvanize the far right in Korea, which happens to be just,
I guess, the entire right wing of Korea. Under Trump won President Moon.
Wait, Moon was the one, right? Under Trump won South Korea, North Korea took steps
steps to potentially find a manageable conclusion.
Part of that was also Trump's de-escalation in the Korean Peninsula.
And then the in-cell president came in.
The in-cell president came in, he was super right-wing, he was far more right-wing than
the president prior to him, and he refused to do anything.
He was posturing and saying that like DPRK is an imminent threat, he got way, way, way
more aggressive in his posture against their northern neighbors.
Can you elaborate on INSUL president?
Yes.
President Yoon, who is currently the ex-president, who is currently in prison for trying to implement
a coup d'etat. He, he, he ran on like, you know, fuck women as a campaign pretty much.
He's a wife guy too, but yeah.
He literally was like an incel chud. Dude, Korean politics is insane. Don't even try
to fucking wrap your head around it. Japanese politics is insane. Korean politics is insane.
saying, I'm just giving you the high notes. There's no reason to die further into it right now.
It'll just hurt your feelings. It'll break your mind. It'll hurt your feelings. You just remember
the rose-colored glasses that you have on when you think about Korea. You're like, oh my god,
you know, I love K-pop demon hunters and I love K-pop in general. Like just think about it like
that. Don't dive any further into fucking Korean politics because it will make you want to kill
yourself. There's a reason why Korean youth consider South Korea, they refer to South
Korea as hell on earth. Okay, it is disastrous.
Yeah, South Korea is USA on megasteroids. Yeah, it's South Korea is if America's late
stage capitalism. South Korea is something different. It's like Omega stage capitalism.
We explained South Korea and gender politics to a monkey and it killed itself. Oh, dude. Yeah.
Oh, dude.
Anyway,
New post from the president. Hey, Donald, we cool, right? That's awesome.
Skoop Trump's Iran war has burned through over 90% of key long-range missiles.
Source tells the terror news a percentage of critical long-range missiles.
The Trump Ammon is depleted and its failing war is at least in the high 90s.
Oh nice.
Maybe that's why we stopped attacking.
Dude, JD Pondon, what can you say?
Anyway, this is why I think it's really funny when Democrats come out and they're like,
oh, you love Kim Jong-un. I bet you want to have gay sex with him.
them. Okay. And it's so funny when they're like, you love Kim Jong-un, you want to have
gay sex with them instead of what instead of blowing him up. Okay, we don't have missiles.
They have nukes. What are we talking about? I just don't fucking understand what the Democrats
What do you want?
What are we supposed to do?
That fat piece of shit used up all the fucking military gear all the hardware
For by the way, I don't even care that he used it all up. I wish he hadn't used it all up on fucking like
children schools I
Wish he just dumped it in the middle of the ocean and never used it
And we just stop waging wars, but yeah, we used it all up on Iran. We lost
It's over. What do you want?
What do you want? We were gonna wage war with a country with fucking news is ridiculous
Why can't we be serious for once why can't we all just collectively get together and say hey
It's done. It's over
America's military supremacy is done around the world.
We have to start scaling back our operations.
We have to start focusing on ourselves.
We have to start rebuilding this goddamn country.
Everything is fucking falling apart.
But no!
You got the opposition party trying to outflank Trump to be like, oh, you want to fuck Kim
Jong-un.
Which sounds a lot like tit for tat, doesn't it?
It sounds like a president who is frustrated by this ongoing war in Iran.
A president who knows that petrol prices here in the US have gone up and people are feeling
the pain of them.
And because he is lashing out in this way, it also leaves people unsure about what might
happen next when it comes to the Middle East.
To put it mildly, Inushka, thanks very much indeed.
Well, earlier I spoke to Barbara Lee for US diplomat who served as Assistant Secretary
of state from northeastern affairs, near eastern affairs, rather under Joe Biden.
I began by asking her what she thought Jared Kushner and Benjamin Netanyahu had talked about
in their long meeting.
It's reported that they were in that meeting for four hours, so it kind of tells you all
you need to know about how fraught the situation is.
This is a particularly fraught moment for the administration to be wading back into the
Gaza issue.
Because you have October 27th elections coming up, you have really no movement on Gaza coming
after nearly a year of the end of the war.
And of course, the midterms are coming up as well for the president.
Do you think it would have been wiser of Donald Trump not to bother with the Gaza issue right
now before the Israeli elections?
Well, wiser, I mean, what should he do?
Dude, 2028 is going to be a crazy year.
Because that's when the Chinese elections are too, right?
The American elections and the Chinese elections match up around the same time in 2028.
That's going to be a very, very interesting time.
You focus on Iran?
Yeah, most would argue.
That's the point.
Yeah, most would argue that's the most important thing.
So Chinese elections, Lamel.
Keep undermining the Chinese system.
Keep being fucking delusional.
Oh my God, everyone's saying all Chinese elections.
Yes, they do. They have elections. And there's also internal changes that take place.
And yes, that election is a real election. I don't know. Xi Jinping is not stepping down.
Oh my God.
It's like Putin saying Russia is democratic. No, it's not.
No, the Chinese system is not a democratic system in the way that we understand it.
Think about it like this.
If you're like from a European parliamentary system, the American system only has two parties
rather than multiple, okay?
The Chinese system has one party rather than two parties like we have in the United States
of America.
But the internal discourse and the internal discussion happens within that one party framework.
said that, however, there are still hyper, there's still still a normal democratic process when it
comes to local level partisan, or local level party politics, like who gets to, who gets to
be appointed into a seat of power. And that's how most people start their, or every single
Chinese politician starts their career. Okay, that's it. From the European perspective, the American
The American political system is bullshit. It's literally a presidential system with two parties.
The European one is at least parliamentary with multiple parties.
In the Chinese system, it's one party. Okay? Just one less party than the American one.
I'm not saying it's my favorite. I'm just explaining to you how their structure works.
works. It's important for you to understand it. It's going to be increasingly more important for
you guys to understand how the Chinese system works, because you're just going to need to learn
about it. It's the same as like why someone in fucking Morocco knows how the American system
works, because America is the hegemon. For now. This article explains that they have
nine parties. Yeah, those other parties don't matter. Okay, stop. I don't like this. Like,
Oh, they have nine parties. Yeah, that's irrelevant. Come on, man. It's just oh
My god, it's no it's just one fucking part is a one-party state is it the fact that one party state? What the fuck are we talking about?
It's a one-party state with internal factions and also a one-party state
uh with with the hyper focus on on performance meritocracy key provinces performing against
one another both in terms of development and also trade and and whatever key sectors the the um
party is is focusing on is their five-year targets
history of Chinese elections, which is very much a part of Chinese democracy today.
Your take is identical to the renowned radical leftist communist, Mike Bloomberg.
Yes, Xi Jinping, no dictator.
American businessman Michael Bloomberg says US billionaire says it will take time to solve
problems like air pollution, but China is taking action. Yeah, this is by the way,
beast mode for Michael Bloomberg. He said this while running for president.
Like I couldn't believe it when he, this was when he was running for president.
It's just, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. Our arguments don't matter.
Everybody's saying Hassan, you're delusional about China. You love China or whatever the
the fuck kind of thought terminating spiral that you want to go down.
It doesn't matter. Okay.
One day you're going to fucking have to learn it. Okay.
You can either get ahead of the curve and learn today.
If you want to be ahead of the curve,
if you want to be more competitive,
then you have to learn about it now. Okay.
You just have to learn about it now. It doesn't mean you have to like it.
It doesn't mean you have to say that we have it here.
We should have a similar system here. I'm not advocating for that.
Okay, I'm not advocating for that
But it's unbelievably frustrating anytime I talk about fucking China
There's like 75,000 people in the chat and also outside being like oh
How dare you explain what the Chinese system actually is how dare you do that?
I don't want to know I don't want to know just say it's hit Larian, but Chinese and move on
It's like though. That's not the case
Fuck
Learn Mandarin, Mr. Ahead of the Car, okay, true.
Don't know about you, but I can't function without visual.
So for everything I read, I make a little canvas graphic,
but normally would never see the light of day.
But here we are, Chinese democracy.
a brief history in the article that I shared yesterday which was a close
analysis of all of the iterations of the CCP Constitution since 1921 the author
suggested that the learning is concept of Northern line is already mugging your
heart on Mandarin study yeah because he lives in fucking Vancouver okay it's
like having to learn Spanish living in in Miami okay yeah it's good to know the
language of the region that you are living in. It's not like he's learning Chinese because,
you know, he has ambitions of living in China. He already lives in little China. I love Vancouver,
by the way. So I mean that positively.
They live in LA, what the fuck? Dude, Vancouver, I think Vancouver is more of a province of
China than Los Angeles is. Los Angeles is a province of Mexico.
Is on paper not that different from liberal democracy?
We all have never been to Vancouver and that's why you don't understand what I'm saying to explain
It's not a bottom-up system is a top-down system party leaders pick local candidates to run a non-competitive local elections
These country politicians are watched for promotion by their superiors from local committees in Congress
They are advanced to higher regional bodies provincial bodies and the national bodies. Yes, and every element of it is
hyper meritocratic
You have key performance indicators
You have key performance targets and you have to hit them and you are constantly constantly being watched
You're constantly being watched
and you have
expectations that you have to
You have to hit certain
Performance targets
This could be the eradication of poverty. This could be
rerouting
key industrial output to whatever
At China wants to do this could be
I don't know fixing health care in a certain region and what's really interesting is I
Mean it's a fascinating system if you actually want to truly understand it. It is a fascinating system
It works for China. It definitely would not work for America make no mistake. I'm not saying this would work
We would never we would never in a million years be like what do you mean?
It's a fascinating system that is unbelievably meritocratic.
The number one criticism against Xi Jinping is that it has moved away from the constant
competitive forces within the party to basically show loyalty to Xi Jinping instead.
That's the western criticism of the current Chinese state of affairs.
for the longest time, it was just pure meritocracy, but it got the the corruption got out of hand
Xi Jinping annihilated it
you
you
you
you
my mouse is like my mouse is not working it's fine I'm back I'm back yeah all
right um I don't know what the fuck happened there my logitech g-hub is
is um I it just randomly shut off my computer randomly shut off I don't know
what it is. It happens. It fucking happens, I guess. Karen Bass, please fix it. Zora
Mamdani, please fix my computer. Let's blame the gay Austin. If there's one guy, I'm blaming
is David not Austin. Let's be real. He's constantly tweaking my shit. He said that my graphics
card was my previous graphics cards were leaking. So he replaced it. And ever since then, YouTube,
yes, everything went down. It wasn't just the GPU. Yeah, no, I know the computer died.
It wasn't just the monitors.
Yeah.
I had a 4090 and we swapped for a 5090, I think, whatever.
Anyway, where was I, we were talking about the Chinese system.
my shit went out. God damn it. Hold on.
Water cooling is a scam. Get rid of that whack shit. I don't know. I don't, I don't care.
I don't care.
Hold on.
God damn it.
The fucking.
The goddamn Logitech
mouse is not like updating fast enough.
So my.
Oh, what the fuck?
My camera's out here.
Everything is fucking busted.
All right, how oh we were watching this. I said the Chinese system is fascinating here. Let's take a
look at the concept of democratic centralism, which is very much a part of Chinese democracy today.
I don't know about you, but I can't function without a visual. So for everything I read,
I make a little canvagraphic that normally would never see the light of day. But here we are,
Chinese democracy, a brief history.
In the article that I shared yesterday, which was a close analysis of all of the iterations.
There seemed to be some confusion in chat when I say non-competitive
election. I mean, the voters on the local level do not get to choose their own candidate.
There's only one candidate in the party who chooses it.
Yeah, except the voters get to complain.
So if there is a local politician, especially at that level,
That's not fixing the potholes fast enough. That's not actually, uh, that's not actually, uh,
following whatever the party, uh, whatever the, the preset. Yeah. Also, local elections aren't
always candidates chosen by the state, especially in rural areas. There used to be an entire genre
of Chinese soap TV based around villagers ousting their mayor pick by the state and moved in from
elsewhere and picking their own guy to be their leader instead. So rural areas, uh, rural areas,
there's more competition, ultimately it doesn't matter because local politicians, even if they are
selected by the party, are still in an unbelievably meritocratic process as far as delivering on
what the party's needs are for whichever region we're talking about.
So, if they don't fix the potholes fast enough, or if there's like an instance of police brutality
or an instance of corruption, the party will root it out, and the party will even prosecute
their members. All of the CCP Constitution since 1921. They're going to clip this to hell. It's just
true. It's just, it's very annoying that people say, oh, they'll clip this out and they'll demand.
I'm not even defending the Chinese system. I'm just explaining it, okay? I'm not saying this is the
best system. I'm not saying we should apply this in the United States of America. I'm just explaining
it, okay? Please, I beg of you. That the Leninist concept of democratic centralism is on paper,
not that different from liberal democracy. In 1906, Vladimir Lenin described democratic
centralism as freedom in discussions, unity in action, and emphasise principles such as
leadership elections and accountability to the people.
However, the reality of its implementation in Soviet Russia sought discipline and subordination
to the top party leadership prioritised over democracy.
Having developed out of this context, Chinese democracy is premised on the supremacy of
the party as per Lenin's democratic centralism.
However, the line between party supremacy and the repression of party members is blurry
at best.
If you're struggling with the idea of what party supremacy might mean, I'm British and
I try to understand it as something similar to the King's veto power, except that the
CCP actually uses that veto power regularly.
As Heike Holigieg argues here, after rounds of democratic decision-making and discussion
via collective institutions, democratic centralism demands that the party make the ultimate decision
on everything. And we can see really clearly how this works itself out in today's understandings
of democracy in China. So democracy has been described as a core socialist value, but it's
at the level of the nation state, not society, which means that the people are not expected
to contribute to the development of democracy as a concept. Instead, the party has the ultimate
say over what democracy is, how it's defined, and how it's measured. We see the same dynamic
in action when it comes to whole process democracy. So Xi's whole process democracy,
like most democracy measures, prioritizes the rule of law. However, the Chinese approach
explicitly takes the rule of law to mean CCP supremacy. The site Holibake again,
whole process democracy is people's democracy, but with the party leadership underlying the
whole process. In other words, Chinese democracy begins and ends with the party. And this is one
area where Chinese democracy conflicts with... It's like almost a reskin of the previous
Confucian in some respects. It's both Confucian and it's socialist at the same time.
It's quite literally is like they take the top dogs, they take the best minds. It's an incredibly
competitive field to even join the party, and then the competition doesn't end there.
Every single step of the way to advance, you have to be endlessly responsive to the people
that you are tasked with meeting there, the people whose needs you have to meet.
Whether it is a, whether it is a rural village or whether it's a major province, you just
go up the party ranks slowly but surely. Then there's also a very interesting internal competition
where they'll do practice runs, like they'll do pilot programs in different provinces
and will make different provinces compete with one another, where they will do the exact reversal.
they'll find the perfect, like ideologically, there's obviously differences within this party
because it's massive, right? There are people who are more invested in liberalizing the
economy, marketizing the economy. There are people who actually want to ensure that there
is far more state control. And so they'll take some of those people and they will pit
them against one another basically in different provinces to see what works better, okay?
And that's how it works. Yes, states are supposed to do this in the United States, laboratories of democracy. That's exactly what it is.
We haven't seen it as much recently, but yes, there's been a lot more centralization under Xi Jinping.
There's a lot more state control over where the economy goes under Xi Jinping.
It is definitely not the same as the last two forms of governance.
Post-Dong Xiaoping, China was moving in the direction of liberalization, okay?
China was moving in the direction of liberalization, and it actually was fairly, I mean, it was
great for the economy overall.
worked for the time period, but it also created a lot of wealthy people, wealthy people, billionaires
that were also brought in to the, I guess, some might say bastardized, some might say,
evolved Maoist understanding of the national bourgeois class. Okay.
Yes, Guangdong versus Chongqing is exactly what I'm referencing when I talk about the
the competition between districts, I mean provinces.
So one of the major differences between Xi Jinping's mode of governance is that he came
in as the anti-corruption guy, okay?
He came in as the anti-corruption guy.
That was his whole thing.
And corruption in the Chinese system was immense because through three different leaders of
liberalization and marketization.
There were a lot of fucking Chinese billionaires that were then brought into the party that
were bribing the fuck out of officials that were, that, you know, simply were, were hiding
their assets in the West.
There was a lot of wealth concentration.
There was a lot of wealth concentration in the hands of the few.
And this was a real concern for the party broadly that the national bourgeois class
was going to overthrow party control.
So Xi Jinping was a reaction to that.
Sichuan is the province.
Thank you.
Apologies.
Xi Jinping, Xi Jinping cut that corruption down.
Mayors and governors are moved around a lot on purpose too,
because the government doesn't want officials to become too entrenched in
our area and become corrupt, slash gain too much of a power base.
Yeah.
Here's one version of that.
China executes 14 billionaires in eight years.
That was back in 2011.
This is before, uh, this is before the, the anti-corruption campaigns.
So, in any case, it's not, it doesn't make sense from our understanding of the democratic
process, it just doesn't make sense, and I don't think it would make sense for the
Western world anyway.
And there's no, there's no investment even inside of China to try to like get Americans
to have a, you know, socialism with Chinese characteristic style form of governance, like
a Marxist-Leninist single-party communist rulership or anything like that.
The attitude, the Chinese attitude at least, is always, or has always been, do what works
for you.
We don't give a shit.
What's going to happen once she dies?
What if China slides back into corruption and stuff?
I feel like she centralizing power is not a good success.
It's not good when a successor is needed.
I mean, call me white Chinese, but I still think that the party will do everything it
can.
Ironically, the Guangdong-Chuangqing debate kind of reminds me of the abundance debate
in the US that was going on.
Zhang Houlun, or cake theory, was the discussion at the time the Chongqing model was a redistribute
cutting the cake more evenly and the Guangdong model was growing the cake so that no matter
how it is cut, you have more than before rising tide lifts all boats, yes.
And if I recall correctly, the Chongqing model won out in the end, but there were issues
in both.
But yes, these pilot programs were deployed.
It's the same as like when people talk about social credit, right?
Social credit was a pilot program.
They never nationalized it.
But this also stems from the reality that Americans don't understand how the Chinese
government operates, and they're not really interested at all.
So they'll hear something, they'll hear something, and they'll freak the fuck out over it.
At the end, what was the pivot to Asia, an abstract recognition by some high-level planners
in the U.S.?
That the U.S. has its interests there, and what was it up against?
A coalition of American-Israeli and Arab factions whose financial power, financial political
and emotional interests were on the line.
Obama's comments about pivoting to Asia and getting around to share the region with his
neighbors mobilized a grand coalition in response who spent a decade single-mindedly organizing
lock US power into the Middle East, and they got what they wanted, the Hawks laid bureaucratic
tripwires preventing the US from staying out of a regional war.
They blew up all the diplomatic off-ramps that would prevent such a conflict.
They kept the debate in vague, emotionally charged terms that hit stakes from the public.
And on the other side of the ledger, you have a few Asia-focused bureaucrats trying to guard
their fiefdom unwilling or unable to really fight back on specific political questions.
The case of Elbridge Colby is really illustrative.
Do you think a social credit system works in America?
I think if we have a social credit system, it sucks.
I don't have any idea what the Chinese succession
will look like.
Yeah, we have credit scores.
I don't have any idea what the Chinese succession
will look like post Xi Jinping.
I don't know.
Um, I assume they have contingency plans because that's just how the party is
Actually the Guangdong model more so one in the end Bo July was purged and most of the Chongqing model policies were reversed. I
Thought that I don't know sure I I might be mistaken. I
I thought the guy that they purged was seen as the as the successful model but they purged him afterwards
Anyway, this makes a comparison between
This talks about she's rise the power the western politicians who built a career on charisma and getting elected now
Now imagine telling them the path to power requires 20 years of rotating between obscure
positions in provinces where you know no one, being graded by superiors you didn't choose,
trusting that an opaque committee will eventually decide whether you're ready.
They would probably never agree.
But that is exactly how Xi Jinping rose to power.
Party Secretary of Ningde, a coastal prefecture in Fujian.
Then Fuzhou, then governor.
I remember he's still elite too. Like, like he's still from an elite family. His, uh, his father was purged initially as well. His father was also a party member.
And his father was literally purged. And, and it only, uh, redoubled their loyalty to the party supremacy.
Uh, and Xi Jinping rose through the ranks.
of Fujian. Then party secretary of Zhou, then briefly Shanghai, each posting outside his
native Shangxi. None required a public election. Every promotion was a decision made by superiors
evaluating his dossier. The organization. What do you mean by purge is when you get
punished for insufficient loyalty, depending on who's running the show at the time, either
for insufficient loyalty, for corruption, for a long corruption to continue. You are,
no, they're not, you're not killed. No, no, no, it's not, no purge. Purges means you get removed
from the party position that you had and or sideline or sent to the countryside. And, and you,
you go through, you know, some semblance of like reeducation. You know, you're,
You're sent to work in a factory or work in the countryside, basically.
You lose your political position and you're forced to restart.
There's varying degrees of this, obviously.
Jack Ma is a great example of this, where I think he just basically lost his station,
he's not like killed or anything. He's just he uh he went away for a little bit came back
and his his uh communications are different broadly speaking.
Just the body managing him and every Kajra in the system goes for the same machine.
I don't like the way that this guy says Kajra it's cadre.
After entering through a competitive exam you're sent to a county level position
far from your home count. The OD doesn't let Kajars serve at senior levels in their native
provinces. A rule formalized in 1999 to prevent local power bases from forming. You're evaluated
annually against a 100 point system. GDP growth, tax revenue, public order, implementation of
central policy. It's pretty funny because it is the most technocratic abundance nation of all time.
That's why I always laugh
This is what I meant when I say KPIs like
Like straight-up GDP everything your personnel file follows you for life
You will never see what's inside it every two or three years
You wrote it again the final narrows at every level of roughly 40 million cadres
Maybe two million reached the leading Cajra threshold of those only a few thousand land on the central nomenclatura
205 sit on the Central Committee, 24 on the Politburo, 7 on the Politburo Standing Committee.
In American terms, she was being managed up through a corporate ladder. The ladder happened
to lead to control of 1.4 billion people. Picture any Western politician who built a
Like within politics usually get removed in either jail they're put under house arrest
and then you are publicly denounced and no longer talked about by the party happened
a lot under Mao and many of them like she's father were then rehabilitated by dang.
His father was a leader of the revolution got purged twice I believe but then he got
in with dang and was rehabilitated.
I mean, so was dang, you know.
Anyway, why the fuck was I talking about this? I don't know.
My argument, my argument is never about like, the Chinese system is infallible, it's perfect, uh, and, uh,
you know, we have to immediately do one-party communist rule here in the United States of America.
My argument more so revolves around the fact that, uh,
You know, it's important to understand how the Chinese government works instead of deluding ourselves into believing that
Instead of deluding ourselves into believing that this is like a magical mystical land with 1.4 billion people that's responsible for 30% of our trade
And we have no
Interest or investment in understanding how that system works at all
Okay
many people delude themselves and would rather
plug their heads in the sand
and just refuse to understand this foreign adversary, which shouldn't be a foreign adversary at all.
Okay.
For me, a good way to understand is literally take it word by word party system.
What's really fascinating about the Chinese system is...
Chinese people.
Oh no.
Tom Tiffany ad labels his Democratic opponent David Crowley as data center David Crowley.
I'm done speaking.
This campaign is funded by the people building them.
Data Center David Crowley, Big Tech Wednesdays, Wisconsin Pays.
Meet Data Center David Crowley.
I'm done talking about elections.
I realize that there might be some fucking scumbags in here that aren't just watching
the clip shit out of context, but are going, oh, that's actually a good idea.
Let's run with it.
That is insane.
What's extra insane is that Democrats don't do this.
It sucks that I give free ball all the time and it's not just to, it's usually the Democrats.
They don't listen.
And then Republicans instead listen to what I have to say.
It seems, yeah, I saw Rick Scott calls Moscow.
It's a Hassan, Piker Democrat.
I find that very funny, scared to death.
Remember Rick Scott suggests Jared Moskow is just another Hasan Piker Democrat and it
doesn't matter who is the CD25 primary.
Okay dude yeah it took your massive genius to come up with data center David, lemma
fail come on now.
I never said I'm fucking massive genius.
Amazon for maybe having Francesca Hong who was just on the cover of Time for opposing
data centers to someone Republicans are dubbing data center David Crowley.
the
It's odd to write a sentence using the words piker.
Israel in violence with the latter references piker and not Israel. I'm highly critical of Israel's behavior, but I have a serious problem with pikers passing senior agents of support for political violence.
It's authorize a sentence using the words piker Israel in violence with the latter refers the piker and not Israel multiple things can be true. It was
Yes, I'm just as I'm just as if not significantly more violent than Israel.
famously. Israel is the lesser of two evils between, between me and Israel. Israel is the lesser of two evils. This is a very normal take to have.
have.
What is the Wisconsin Ballala would have Crowley refuse around guys?
What the fuck are you guys talking about?
What are you talking about?
He's not, what are you, they already made their bed, they, they, they positioned themselves
far too pro data center.
So now the only thing, the only thing David Crowley can do is come out with a bold proposal
to be like, yeah, no, I'm doing a moratorium.
I listened to my folks and I'm doing a moratorium. What is this new reached out repeatedly last
week to media strategy strategy asking to speak to their head of polling after reaching
out repeatedly. They told me they were discontinuing their polling operation and then they admitted
their poll was fake poll showing bass leading ramen by double digits was bogus company said
what the fuck fake cook poll release are quickly becoming the hottest form of election
interference. This does not bode well for 2028. Oh my God. But Monday in response,
the repeated inquiries from the times the company said the perverted poll was nothing of the kind.
Media strategies created a short-term social experiment to examine how perverted polling
information could enter and spread through the political information ecosystem without independent
verification. The company said in an email at the times, we are now seeking publicity or
attribution for the individuals involved in our declining interviews.
They said we were doing a thought experiment and the thought experiment was a fake poll.
This same pollster had hung ahead by 20 before the election?
Oh my God.
But it wasn't just that poll that had hung ahead of the election.
Let's be real. I mean, there are real pollsters that were working as well. It wasn't just fucking...
Um, it wasn't just, uh, that one, like state navigate, which is a reliable pollster state
Navigate is like a legit pollster and their poll also showed Francesca Hong by 20
Market law is considered one of the most reliable posters the country they had hung up 20 point. Yeah, exactly
More legit real posters might be in the establishment pocket than we more than we think
Yeah, primary polling is just not very good, especially in a state like Wisconsin, like
they saw that there were a shit ton more Republicans, like 10% of the primary electorate that voted
for the Democrats were Republicans, according to their, according to Vote Hub and also state
navigate analysis. So that definitely changes, that definitely changed the equation a lot.
And they voted and I thought they would have, I was wrong. I thought they would have voted
for Francesca Honk. No, they voted for David Crowley. And we, I still don't know why they
did that. It could have been because they were, some might have, some might have just
voted for him because they like him. But yes, a shit ton of Republicans, more Republicans
voted for David Crowley than Francesca Hahn. But yeah, if it was a close primary, Hong
would have won, no hands, no question. The more I look at the data, the more it's clear
Republicans crossing over to vote for Crowley was likely the difference in the election.
For example, if you map Crowley�s wind margin, his percentage minus Hong�s percentage by
county in compared to Trump�s margin in 2024 is a clear positive relationship.
That means basically Crowley outperformed Hong in the most counties where Trump performed
well, i.e. conservative counties.
Still analyzing with these trends are clear.
I mean, that�s not the appropriate analysis, I don�t think, because that just means that
there are more conservative voters that live there that are still Democrats.
You were saying the opposite a few days ago will change your mind because they, because
the data, there's new data that's readily available.
The data shows that 10%, like the expected Republican crossover was around seven or five
to 7% it turns out it was 10%
many say Republicans would actually vote for the socialists because they think
he'd be easier to beat I don't think so there's a red scare happening they see
socialists winning all around the country they're not going to chance one
winning in a state if they can help it I don't know if that's like it just feels
so fucking it just feels so complex it's not like Republicans are capable of
complex thought you know what a Sampagos luxury lifestyle isn't what
Marx had in mind oh my god here we go Jesus Christ who gives a fuck yeah I'm
rich dude I'm rich bitch suck me
She did much better in rural counties outside the Milwaukee Abmar, yeah.
So you know you're driving the STEM lords mad using their data wrong? What do you mean?
Using data wrong what what am I?
What are you talking about?
I just don't know what the fuck is going on with this, uh, uh, with the with the crossover votes. I I truly don't understand it
Did you see this from Chi?
Hellgate, New York City AOC for President or Chiosave or Senate?
Uh, New York City Democratic Socialists, particularly those belonging to the New York City DSA's
influential groundwork caucus.
Oh my god, influential groundwork caucus.
That's crazy.
Okay, Hellgate.
Relax.
That's crazy.
Influential groundwork caucus?
Jesus Christ, New York, New York City DSA.
Y'all are fucking, y'all ain't s- y'all are not slick, okay?
This is, anyway, are kicking around the possibility of rep AOC runs for president, as many expect
there to do New York City Council, but she also could run for U.S. Senate in New York.
I'd be fully in support of this decision.
You know, I'm with them.
I'm with Chi.
No matter what.
I like it.
Conservatives would not be voting for the centrist debt amount of intelligence. They're responding out of fear from the socialist candidate fear a base instinct.
Breaking is on by Karen Dosech Joseph, her Senate, on which he no matter what pops the
knocks.
Yeah.
All right, let's get to Attorney General Todd Blanche, who straight up admitted that
he would, of course, listen to Trump's opinion on prosecutions, which is psychotic.
Attorney General Todd Blanche, Mr. Attorney General, welcome back to Meet the Press.
Thank you. Good morning.
Good morning. Thank you for being here. We appreciate you being here in person,
as we just heard in your address to the Justice Department staff this week, you said you and DOJ
will, quote, uphold the law without fear or favor. You, of course, used to be President
Trump's former personal defense attorney. Can you play?
Why are multiple big names coming out condemning Dambelzaire and Jeffries and Chantel Brown?
Do they have internal showing he'd be Randy Fine? No, dude, Dambelzaire is going to give
fucking smoke by Randy Fine. They're doing that because they're rapacious dick writers
of the state of Israel. And this is good like cross promotion. Oh, look, we're reaching
across the aisle and we're condemning the anti-Semitism on the right. It's, I don't know,
they're just showing their Israel bonafides, their pro-Israel instincts. That's it. Cause
like Randy, Randy five versus Dampel's aired is literally the Hitler versus Hitler race,
right? Straight up. They agree on pretty much everything except Randy fine is, is I guess,
you know, he's, he's unbelievably racist towards Palestinians and uh, a Dambels area and is
unbelievably racist towards Jews. So of course it's uh, you know, anti-Semitism versus Islamophobia
and of course our uh, dickhead politicians that is just staying the fuck out of it and not saying
anything and let these guys have a Hitler off and then turn around and be like, look at the state of
affairs in the Republican party, they have to literally be like, we are defending Randy
Fine against the unjustifiable anti-Semitic attacks.
You have no obligation to literally defend fat Jewish Hitler in the United States of
America.
You just don't have to do that.
Yes, Dan Bilzerian is a fucking anti-Semite.
Just stay out of it.
Like, are you crazy?
What the fuck are you talking about?
You look like an insane person when you literally point to the worst, the worst Congress person in the country and you're like, oh, gotta defend them.
No, you don't have to do that. Actually, you literally don't have to do that.
What the fuck?
And it's especially nutty because there is a, there's an election taking place in Florida
tomorrow.
Federmann, is it worse?
No.
Randy Fein is worse than John Federmann.
What do you talk about?
No.
Like Randy Fein is our Itamar Ben-Givir.
Okay.
He's American, Itamar, Ben Gavir, and of course, in the most American fashion, he's fatter
than Itamar, Ben Gavir, and Hakeem Jeffries is no obligation and should not under any
circumstance talk about the hateful campaign being run by Dampelsay in Florida as blatantly
anti-Semitic and shocks the conscious, like, dude, what are you talking about? What are
you talking about? Yes, yes, he's a fucking anti-Semite. And Randy Fine is literally the
same guy, but against Muslims. Why would you ever bring it up? How is this something to
talk about when there's a motherfucking election taking place in Florida with Democrats? I said,
Debbie Wasserman Schultz is carpet-bagging to a black opportunity district and running
against a more qualified black opponent Elijah Manley, who happens to be progressive. And
this is what the leader of the Dems is complaining about in the Florida primaries, fuck Randy
Fine and Dambel's area.
Yeah, this is, you know, this is who one day after this, Hakeem Jeffery says, oh, I can't
believe the unjustifiable anti-semitism from Dan Bolzerian.
Sometimes you shouldn't say anything.
This is one of those times.
Just let him fucking fight.
Let Armenian Hitler and fat Jewish Hitler fight one another.
Why are you getting involved?
I don't understand it.
Like they're both Hitler.
Just let them fucking fight each other.
What do you mean?
You, you want to take a side on this?
The fuck's wrong with you?
jihadi mom donnie does not belong as mayor of new york city he needs to be denaturalized
and sent back home to uganda i've had enough of this garbage one day later one motherfucking
day later hakim jeffreys is like aw the the the anti-semitic attacks dambell's arian
has actually launched towards the the kind gracious beautiful i kiss him all the time
I'm randy fine it's unacceptable.
There are nearly 40 mini-mom donnies who have already won Congressional primers across America.
If you don't think the rise of Muslim terror is a serious problem, you're not paying attention.
We cannot allow the halls of Congress to be turned into Dearborn.
Yeah, eat more Ben Groyper.
American eat more Ben Gavir dude.
It wasn't even one day, Jeffery sweated an hour after Randy finds sweet, awesome.
What the fuck is wrong with this American Knesset member?
Yeah.
You mean Hakim Jeffries, right?
Not even Randy Fah is a Hakeem Jeffries is the American Knesset member
Hakeem Jeffries MK member of the Knesset
It's fucking crazy
Anyway, let's get back to, you know, exceptional levels of corruption taking place in, uh,
the department of justice and 90% of Democrats in today's CBS, you go pull, want the Democratic
party to focus on passing Medicare for all party leaders are in the 10%.
Oh my God.
Just like they're in the 10% on Israel as well.
Let's move on to Medicare for All. You co-sponsored Medicare for All legislation from 2013 to 2021.
You've not cosponsored it since you became Democratic leader. Will you put Medicare for
all up for a vote if you become Speaker? Well listen, these are all conversations that the
House Democratic Caucus is going to have to have. Right now we're focused on November 3rd,
not January 3rd. What we are promising the American people is that we're going to fight to make
health care affordable for every single American. And we know there's a lot of
damage that Republicans have done that we've got to restore and repair. For
instance, Republicans have enacted the largest cut to Medicaid in American
history. More than a trillion dollars or so has been cut from Medicaid. And what
you're going to have is about 14 million Americans lose access to health care.
Do you personally support Medicare for all? Do you personally support Medicare
for all?
No, as you indicated, I haven't cosponsored the Medicare
for all legislation that has been introduced
over the last several years.
I do think we need to figure out
how to fix our broken health care system
and then build something better once we repair the damage that
has been done.
Now, that will include doing things
like extending the Affordable Care Act tax credits
so that more than 20 million people who
have seen their health insurance premium skyrocket in some cases by up to $1,000 a month. That's
not sustainable. And that's something that Donald Trump and Republicans have visited
upon the American people.
Just to be very clear, though, as a Democratic leader in the House, would you vote for or
against Medicare for all?
I think as you've indicated in your question to me, it's not legislation that I currently
and co-sponsoring for that I support, but we do support the sick.
I love the democratic strategy of refusing to have a vision.
I fucking love that.
It's awesome.
It's sick.
Voters deserve less.
We're better than the Republicans.
This is good strategy.
Thank you, Hakeem.
Thank you.
awesome. Incredible.
No sin that we've got to find a path forward to fix our broken
healthcare system and make healthcare affordable for every
single American. Yeah, and then and then centrist Democrats
will like look you dead in the eye and go what you don't want
healthcare to be affordable. Yeah, we do man. We do. This is
is just bad politics and bad policy. It's there's you know, and that's precisely the
reason why you love it. Yeah, 90% of Democrats in today's CBS you go pull one the Democratic
party to focus on passing Medicare for all party leaders are in the 10%.
Kim Jeffries is awesome, you know, defending subtly or not so subtly, defending Randy Fine.
Again, unbelievably unpopular position.
Also turning around and be like, I hate Medicare for all.
That's another unbelievably unpopular position.
Great.
Which the Justice Department will always...
Anyway, if you're wondering like how we got here, it's attitude like that.
okay that is how we got here
it's how we got to
adip shit
like dot blanche who was the personal defense attorney of the president
going on meet the president being like of course i'm gonna prosecute my
king's enemies what do you mean that's my fucking job
independently of the white house
well what
that's there's a big difference in saying we will be we will always do our job
and and investigate any case and act independently of the white house
No, I'm not going to pledge that.
And no attorney general should ever pledge that.
The president, I mean, if I were to pledge,
I would be independent of the White House.
What that means is that if President Trump says,
I want the Department of Justice to go after
every violent criminal in this country,
which is what he has said,
what you're saying to me is I just say,
no sir, I'm not going to do it.
So I will act with integrity.
Our prosecutors will act with integrity.
We will prosecute without fear or any sort of favor.
And that's exactly what we've been doing.
and that's what every Department of Justice should do.
Well, I guess big picture of the president asks you
to do something that you feel crosses
an ethical or legal line.
Would you do it?
The president will never ask me to do something
unethical or legal.
It's awesome.
I mean, this is literally how we talk about North Korea.
Like, we talk about, like, what do you mean?
This is how everyone imagines how things work
North Korea.
Motherfuckers in the champion like, oh, well, what about the
Chinese system is like, well, what about our system? Man, we
live here. We have to, we're stuck here. Okay, we don't,
we're not Chinese. We're stuck here.
And we fucking worry about how bad the Chinese system is all
the fucking time. Look at our system. Clearly it's falling
apart. Well, or illegal. He never has. He never will. And no, I have I swore to the Constitution
of the United States, like every cabinet secretary has done and like every attorney general before
me has done. And so this this narrative that's mostly pushed by the left and pushed by the media
that the president's going to pull me aside and ask me to do something illegal is completely a false
narrative. Not true will not happen and hasn't happened. Okay, let's delve into how you do
see your tenure. You appeared with President Trump at the Nassau County
Police Academy on Friday. You made some comments that did get a lot of
attention. I want to play it, get your reaction on the other side. Take a
look. My administration and my Department of Justice, if anybody touches a
federal law enforcement officer in any way inappropriate, we will prosecute
them to the fullest extent of the law. And yet Mr. Attorney General on
President Trump's first day in office, as you know, he pardoned everyone who attacked
the Capitol on January 6, including 172 people who pleaded guilty to assaulting police officers.
How is that consistent with your pledge to always protect law enforcement?
There's nothing inconsistent about that.
The president's pardon powers, any president's pardon powers, are not limited.
So when I say, and what this Department of Justice says, and when the FBI says, like
we're saying than every U.S. attorney is saying that if you assault law enforcement, we will
prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law. That is absolutely what President Trump
expects. Absolutely what I expect of our prosecutors. And that that's completely separate from any
president's ability to pardon. But he did the opposite of that effectively. I mean, on January
6, police officers were beaten with baseball bats and slide polls. Do you believe it was
wrong to pardon the people who assaulted police officers on January 6th given that you have
vowed to protect law enforcement.
Every Attorney General vows to protect law enforcement, including me.
And so, no, I'm not a...
What?
It's...
Thank you, Bill Cassidy.
What can I say?
What can I say to this?
Like everyone, everyone in American Congress sucks. Okay. The entire Republican party,
they're a bunch of fucking assholes. And Bill Cassidy was like, Oh, I'm going to be the
holdout vote. I'm going to make sure that, you know, I hate Donald Trump now. I'm just
going to make sure that this guy doesn't get appointed. And then he did the last second
switch up.
And now this is our fucking Attorney General, Jesus Christ dude.
Oh my god, we're all going to prison.
God damn, this guy's such an asshole dude.
What are we doing?
Pining or in any way saying what President Trump did is wrong?
Absolutely not.
By the way.
Isn't it inconsistent with what you said though?
I mean, really not.
There's a difference.
There's a difference in saying we will prosecute anybody.
if later a president chooses to pardon that individual, that is the president's right
under our constitution. Do not forget that a few days before-
Yeah, they all get a boss call. Once Colin says she was going to vote no on Blanche,
you knew that they found enough votes, yeah.
Or President Trump pardoned-
What was Cassidy's explanation? It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. It was bullshit.
They gamed it out so that there was like, uh, they gamed it out so their weakest link could
look more impartial because they were in a competitive seat.
OK, Susan Collins in this circumstance.
And then Cassidy came back and was like, oh, the other appointment might be worse.
He convinced me that he is not going to be Trump's lackey.
That's what he said.
Does it matter? It's bullshit.
The individuals associated and who are pled guilty to the conduct on January 6th, President
Biden pardoned hundreds and hundreds of criminals, many of whom were quite violent.
So that's his right to do that, just like his presence Trump's right to do that.
But what message does it send to police officers, that people who assaulted them were pardoned?
The message to police officers is consistent and sane every single day, which is that we
will protect you.
And by the way, that's a little bit interesting coming from a place where we see violent protests
breaking out all over the country, in New Jersey, in Minneapolis, in Seattle, in California.
And instead of there being a full-throated defense by leadership on the Democrat side,
on the Republican side, what you have is it's as if we're doing something wrong by saying
we will protect law enforcement and we will prosecute those who assault law enforcement.
We're not.
That's on this issue of January 6th.
Your confirmation was actually held up over the so-called anti-weaponization fund.
I just want to remind folks what that means.
That would have effectively paid people who felt they were in some ways wronged by the
federal government and could have included people who attacked the Capitol on January
6th.
You signed a document.
You testified under oath that the fund is dead.
But President Trump has said he wishes it weren't.
If the president asks you-
Oh my god, they're gonna bring back the fun.
Oh my god, they're gonna bring back the fucking fun.
Oh my god, it's beast mode for them.
It's just, I mean, what are you gonna do about it?
What can any of us do about it?
I just, everything is, everything is so fucked.
The level of corruption is unfathomable.
They might as well.
They might as well bring back the fucking fund.
They might as well just do a slush fund
for all the Trump piggies with tax dollars, by the way.
To revive the fund, will you tell him no?
Well, the president has said it's dead as well.
So you can, and as the president has said
that he very strongly believes that those that were,
that had this department of justice weaponized against them
should be compensated.
That he's gonna continue to say that.
He said it's up to you.
He was just asked about it.
He said effectively it's up to you what to do about this.
And I've said repeatedly it's dead.
And he has also said it's dead.
He said it in the cabinet meeting, but the press there.
And so I think it might be enjoyable for the media
to continually ask me about whether the fund is really dead.
And there is no fund.
No money went from the Treasury to any account.
There were no commissioners established.
And so there is no fund.
There will be no fund.
I've said it repeatedly.
And the different angles coming almost every time
I speak with the media somewhat. Yeah, fucking Larry's well because Cassie was voted out for not
being Maggie enough. Trump clearly did not like him yet still voted for all of his nominees and
Blanche for free, literally. Yeah, I just I don't know. I just I don't know what else to say. I just I.
I guess I wish that the the Democrats could demonstrate the same like I if I was firmly
committed to the idea that if there was like a progressive Democrat a socialist Democrat
in a position of power like Donald Trump if there was like a socialist Trump would the
Democratic Party demonstrate this level of fealty to that socialist Democrat fuck no
absolute fucking Lutely not. Republicans are the ones who always fall in line. Democrats
would never do anything that was good for the fucking country. So we only go in one direction
and that's right word, right? That's it.
Someone says, well, wait, is it really dead? And I say, yes, it is. And then the next interview
I give somebody will say to me, is it really dead? And I promise you, I will say, yes,
it is dead. So you're you're saying you rule out ever reviving it but just to be
very clear can you guarantee that under your Department of Justice anyone who
attacked the Capitol on January 6th will not receive one dime of taxpayer
money if they file a claim against the federal government. Well anybody can
file a claim against the federal government not just anybody associated
with January 6th. I'm not gonna sit here and say on a news program whether a
litigation that may or may not happen will result in money.
I can't do that.
So what I will say is that there's
a process in place for decades where somebody that
believes they've been wronged or a tort's been committed
against them by the federal government can seek redress.
And beyond that, I'm not going to comment
about hypotheticals of what will happen in any of those cases.
So potentially they could get paid
under another stream of government funding,
but not the anti-fascination fund.
When you say they could get paid, what is their claim?
where they are that is it somebody else like it's judgment fund dog
you know what she's asking
she's asking if you're going to restart the fund under a different name
are you going to take
tax dollars
okay are you gonna raid the irs coffers
and create a personal slush fund to the tune of two billion dollars
that could be spent at trumps behest
that's the question
You can call it whatever the fuck you want to call it. But that's basically the question.
And he's already answered it. He already said yes. He's just trying to slip in and out of it.
And honestly, because we have so much corruption happening at the federal government right now,
like unfathomable amounts, when I say this, guys, look, I was critical of Joe Biden. I,
I, you know, talked about his nepotism and all that shit. Okay. I don't like the Clintons. I've
always shit on the Clinton Foundation, all this stuff. We have never seen this level
of open graft in our lifetimes. And not only that, but I don't think there's any government,
any like liberal democracy, any authoritarian government that has done this level of milking
of the public coffers as the Trump administration.
when you think about Putin, okay? When you think about Vladimir Putin or Erdogan, something
that I'm very familiar with. Erdogan loves rerouting contracts to his family members,
right? To the tunes of billions of dollars. His son-in-law is literally the, the fucking,
you know, head engineer at, uh, like everyone in his family are, are unfathomably wealthy.
I think his son-in-law might now be the most wealthy person in Turkey officially, right?
This is the type of financial engineering that people like out of the on, people like
Vladimir Putin engage in, right?
They'll put, they'll take state assets and they'll reroute it to their immediate family
members.
They'll hide a lot of this stuff as well.
But the keyword here is hide, okay?
The keyword is hide, because a lot of this corruption, even in countries, even in countries
where there's a lot more bandwidth for the authoritarian leadership that should basically
steal money, they hide it.
They hide their theft.
The World Liberty Financial, The Wall Street Journal reported that the Trump family's flagship
crypto venture says his trust company has received preliminary approval from the office
of the comptroller or the currency to become a bank, okay?
As in the Trump family will now operate their own bank.
To which I responded with even out of the bottom Putin have to hide their corruption.
These motherfuckers are doing it out in the open and they're still cattle.
There are still cattle that think he's the second coming.
This is straight up the most open in your face fraud I have ever seen in any developed
nation.
I have never seen anything like it.
So when you think about that, you're like, okay, Todd Blanche does a slush fund for Trump
and Trump cronies.
Is that really a bridge too far at this point?
Like, the American, these vultures are picking apart the corpse that is now the American
carcass, the corpse of American Empire.
They are stealing anything that is not fucking stamped down, that's not screwed down.
They're just pulling everything.
They're pulling out the upholstery.
It is a straight up crime spree, dude.
It is fucking crazy.
Anything that's not nailed down, thank you.
I messed it up.
Oh, that is where we're at, dude.
Is there any way to prosecute them after he gets out of office or no?
I mean, they're operating like there's no tomorrow.
They're operating like no one is ever going to prosecute them.
And that's what I find very strange because, and that's also part of the reason why, like
a lot of communists on Twitter get mad at me and they're like, oh, you're talking about
the Senate majority for the Democrats, you're talking about the Senate majority for the
Democrats.
I'm like, yes, this is a matter of survival, dumbass.
I know that a lot of commies get mad at me on Twitter, they're like, how dare you, you're
all, you're such a fucking neoliberal Democratic party, liberal Zionist sheepdog, blah, blah,
blah, all this shit.
And from my perspective, I'm like, listen, this is like the only short-term mechanism
of pushback that we have readily available.
I am going to in the interim try to make sure that every single person that I work to get
elected is at the very least socialist or aligned, you know, like who's willing to put
up a fucking fight.
I just don't understand how they don't fathom. I don't know if they don't live, maybe they
don't live here. Maybe there's not paying attention to what the fuck's going on in this
country. Stop left bashing. They should stop bashing me then. Dick suck. Shut the fuck
up. Stop left. Stop left bashing. What am I not allowed to fucking express discontent?
I love everybody. Everybody turns into small beans, dude. Anytime I'm fucking reply to
an account, they'll be like, how did he find it? I bet he's quote searching. No, you fucking
You've been on the platform for long enough. You should understand. That's what for you page is for that's what it shows me this shit
Okay, that's what Elon Musk wants me to see because he wants me to go fucking crazy
Because you're defending Democrats. Yes, and I'm also explaining what the principle behind it is
You are gonna go to prison and so am I we are gonna go to prison together, okay
There is no distinction.
I don't know why they do not see this.
It's so strange to me.
There are people who are like, I'm a fucking communist, dude.
I would never.
I would never talk about a Senate majority.
It's like, dude, we have no other shot here, okay?
I mean, what do you want me to do?
What do you want me to do?
I don't love it, but like what reality are you living in?
This is what I will never understand.
What reality are you living in?
Because it certainly doesn't seem to be the one
that we are sharing currently.
If you are, if you're just like, who gives the shit?
They're not gonna do anything.
It's like, well, we have to try.
We have to try.
We have to do something.
We have to try to put a fucking end to this, right?
If that's
Rick Scott I think is is genuinely skit so about me. I at first I thought it was like cynically presenting himself as a I
Thought it was a initially cynically presenting himself as like this guy who's
Who's who's fake mad about me like he's like, oh, why is this on piker doing this with that?
I think he genuinely thinks that I'm like constantly demanding his assassination or something like on a daily basis.
Socialist beats Moskowitz. How keen Jeffers has a real problem, doesn't he?
Oh, no, I don't look at matters. If you look at what Jeffers and Schumer are doing, they'll say something,
but if you look at their votes, look at how they act. I mean, they don't want to fund ICE.
Not one Democrat in the Senate voted to fund ICE.
They've never pushed back on Biden's open borders, they've never pushed back on people
that are anti-semitic, they're all in for higher taxes.
So if you look at it, it doesn't really matter, Schumer and Jeffery's work for Sondpiker,
AOC and Mandami.
Piker wants me murdered and all the Catholics murdered, they never say anything at all.
They allow their candidates to campaign with him, they say nothing at all against Sondpiker.
I believe.
Yeah, I don't want capitalist murdered.
I don't want Rick Scott murdered.
It's just fucking so insane that he just keeps constantly talking about it.
Every time, every time he gets in front of a camera.
Every time he gets in front of a camera, he's like, do you guys know everybody
wants me dead?
He just loves talking about how there's a constant threat of assassination that is imminent.
That's coming from my end, it seems.
That's what he just keeps saying over and over again.
It's a heavily Jewish district.
So it is unlikely that Moskovitz will lose.
Is that accurate?
Oh, I I assume my mask was has been there in there. He was in the house before I assume he's gonna win
But just remember who ever wins that seat, they're gonna vote the way piker tells them to vote
That's how they're running. They're all running. They all support. You know, dude, can you imagine that would be so sick?
Yeah, Hakeem Jeffries gets his notes from me, dude, definitely I
Wish I wish that was the case. Oh my god
This country will be in such a better place, dude. Holy fuck
Medicare for all universal child care federal jobs guarantee
Publicly funded housing all across the fucking country dude high-speed rail everywhere. Oh my lord
Imagine I'm the puppet master behind Hakeem Jeffries. That's what we're doing
Did you see him call Moscow as a Sompiker Democrat, I did the platform of the Democrat socialist because they're scared
If a socialist beats Moscovitz, Hakeem Jeffries has a real problem, doesn't he?
Oh, no, I don't look at matters.
If you look at what Jeffries and Schumer are doing, they'll say something, but if you
look at their votes, look at how they act, I mean, they don't want to fund ICE.
Not one Democrat in the Senate voted to fund ICE.
They never pushed back on Biden's open borders.
They've never pushed back on people that are anti-semitic.
They're all in for higher taxes.
So if you look at it, it doesn't really matter.
Schumer and Jeffery's worked for Sondpiker, AOC, and Mondami.
Because Piker wants me murdered and all the Catholics murdered, they never say anything
at all.
They allow their candidates to campaign with them.
They say nothing at all against Sondpiker.
I believe it's a heavily Jewish district.
So it is unlikely that Moskvitz will lose, is that accurate?
Oh I assume Moskvitz has been there, in there he was in the house before, I assume he's
going to win.
But just remember, whoever wins that seat, they're going to vote the way Piker tells
them to vote.
That's how they're running, they're all running, they all support the platform of the Democrat
Socialists because of-
Yeah, he called Jared Moskowitz a Hassan piker Democrat who wants him assassinated.
That was really funny.
Meanwhile, Jared Moskowitz is like, I'm a Ron DeSantis Democrat.
What kind of leverage does he think you have scared dude?
I don't know, man.
This is reminding me of how like slop tubers made up their minds that I was like the puppeteer
behind the Twitch CEO decisions and shit, you know, like there's a, there's a Hassan
Anon out there. There's like a QAnon, but just for me, after years and years of like
propping me up as this like psychotic villain who's ontologically evil when things don't
and then fantasizing about my demise when it doesn't happen, these guys lose their minds.
They don't actually like, I don't know, go back to the drawing board, try to figure
out why these things are not happening, why I'm not in prison, why I'm not, uh, you know,
being prosecuted, why I haven't been banned or whatever. And instead of like reconsidering
their previous understanding to be like, maybe we just misunderstood what the fuck was going
on, uh, they just decide, no, it said the conspiracy is actually far deeper. The conspiracy
is, is far more nefarious than we previously thought. He actually controls Twitch. He's
actually blackmailing everyone on Twitch, both on the Twitch side, but also on the content
creator side, right? And it's wild to think that now Rick Scott feels that way. Like it's
not just slop tubers like more Pegaslop and Pregasus. It's now also Republican Congress
persons who legitimately make it seem like I have this level of power. And at first I thought,
at first I thought they were being cynical, but I think in Rick Scott's case, he might be
sincere. Like I thought Rick Scott was cynically saying that because he thinks
it's a salient talking point. It's a really good way to attack the Democrats.
I'm a very unpopular force on the Fox News side of things, right?
Now. Now I feel like he's just crazy.
No, no, no, so, right, but when you say they could get paid, anybody who, who sues the
federal government could get paid, it depends on the facts, it depends on the circumstances,
it depends on what it's alleged the government did.
And so I don't know the circumstances of any hypothetical case, and I'm not going to comment
on a hypothetical case today, but there is a process in place where if you believe that
you've had a tort committed against you by the government, whether it's slipping on ice
outside of a federal post office or a law enforcement officer assaulting you, you are
allowed to seek compensation.
Okay, let's talk about a case that was recently brought before the Justice Department.
The DOJ dropped charges against the Olympic canoeist that had accused of vandalizing the
reflecting pool on the National Mall, saying the damage was caused by, quote, botched installation
and not vandalism.
Trump, though, said U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro was wrong, and that she should revisit
the case.
Do you support Jeanine Pirro dropping the case, or do you support President Trump's
calls to revive the case?
So we, yes, I absolutely support U.S. Attorney Pirro, as does President Trump.
Now that's different than whether the President is extraordinarily frustrated at what happened
in that case, and I don't in any way fault him for that.
And by the way, the filings didn't say that all of the damage was done by faulty
construction. Okay, so there that's where there's there's some the media is
getting some of the reporting wrong. Well it says the damage was done as a result
of a botched installation and not vandalism as initially represented. There
was potential vandalism and we know that there was vandalism because
there's witnesses that's also in the brief that you're citing that there's
witnesses that talked about the fact that there was vandalism. What do you mean by
potential vandalism? Well there's a witness that said I observed the
the defendant vandalizing the reflecting pool.
Now that's different than whether ultimately
we had the proof, and you saw what
US Attorney Perot said about that and her filings.
And I've said this before,
this is, we're talking about a single case, okay?
We're talking about one case.
We had another case of vandalism
against the Memorial earlier this week.
This is horrible what's happening in our nation's capital
with some of these really, really sick people
vandalizing our national monuments.
And so, and Attorney General, I mean, U.S. Attorney Piro is doing a phenomenal job of enforcing
that, going after anybody who's doing it, and I think judging her on a single case.
I love that the whiplash going from, hey, are you going to institute a personal slush
fund for the American president that you directly steal billions of dollars from IRS coffers
from?
Or like, are you going to institute a slush fund directly at the behest of the current
sitting president, uh, where you steal billions of dollars from the IRS, right? And then the
next question is, are you going to kill people who touch the reflecting pool? Like we go
from unlimited graft to will you prosecute the silliest shit that the president cares
about. This country is a fucking joke. It's a joke. It's a complete fucking joke. This
country is completely out of control. Because of the evidence that we had is not fair.
Should the president have a voice in individual prosecution decisions at all?
Every American has a voice in prosecutions and we hear from Americans all the time.
As a matter of fact, many of our investigations start with an American citizen coming forward
and saying they saw something and so whether President Trump should have a quote voice,
it depends.
Would you take his opinions into consideration when he says I think this case should be revived?
Will you take that into consideration?
So hold on.
Will I take the President of the United States' view on something into consideration?
Yes.
course, and I hope every Attorney General in history would not answer that question differently.
Just let's play that out.
The President of the United States, the elected President of the United States, says something
to me, and I'm supposed to say to you, I would say, nope, I mean, that's not the way
it works.
Now, the President is extraordinarily, every day he wakes up with one mission, which is
making this country better, and as it relates to me, making this country safer.
So if he has a view on that, he talks about it on social media.
He talks about it when he speaks to the American people.
That's certainly something that I listened to.
I'm asking in part because we did see this clash play out in his first term.
Bill Barr, the attorney general during President Trump's first term, did push back against
President Trump in 2020, as you recall.
He told him his election claims were detached from reality.
If you were faced with a similar situation, something that you did not think actually
met the standard, the legal standard in your mind, would you stand up to the president?
So I will always stand up for what's right and I do not.
And what's right is what my president tells me.
My president will never demand I do something wrong.
But for example, when we gave a sweetheart deal to Ghislaine Maxwell in exchange for
her silence, that was the right thing to do.
That was the right thing to do because my president wanted me to do it.
crazy just lie dumbass what do you mean he's not even interested in giving
assurances to the public that's where we're at right now
where you have appointed officials this is the top cop of the country okay
this is the highest member of law enforcement in the country he controls
everything he controls the entirety of the department of justice
and he is not on meet the press for an audience of 330 million people
He's on Meet the Press for an audience of one.
And that's precisely the reason why he's terrified of even saying, of course I'll stand up to
the president if he violates the law.
I'm the attorney general.
That's my job.
But he can't say that because Trump is watching.
And if Trump hears him say that, if Trump hears him say that, he's gonna get mad.
So he has to sit there and be like, no, my president is the best.
beautiful. He's also six foot four and two hundred and twenty five pounds and his his penis is so
large is so girthy. It's got it's veiny. I love it. It's my favorite. It's my favorite penis.
What are we doing?
The
left was never right at Hassanabi by
president does not expect any of his leaders including me to just say yes to him no matter
of what he says. And so, of course, there's vigorous back and forth with every cabinet
member in the president of the United States, which is exactly what President Trump expects.
And there again, there's this extraordinarily false narrative that the president wakes
up in the morning and calls me and says, Todd, go prosecute X or Y. He does not do that.
He has never done that. He will never do that. And so if there's something that he wants
to do, but he needs to know that there's a challenge or that we can't do it, of course
I will tell him it happens all the time with all of his leaders and that's what he expects
one of the issues that he really cares about the midterms and there's been a lot of focus
on the midterms as it relates to the justice department which has lost 22 pieces.
Oh no, don't Kristen Wellett don't ask him if he's gonna if he's gonna stop people from voting
in the midterms I don't want to hear it because the answer is yes probably but I just don't want to hear
here. Oh God, nine to four states to turn over their vote on state officials have pushed
back against those moves. They say states dictate how elections are run, not the federal
government. Is it time for the DOJ to drop this fight and will you do it? Well, just
we're relying on a statute, a statute passed by Congress that allows us in the right circumstances
to review and get those voter rolls.
And so yes, no, no, we're not going
to stop doing what I think every American should
expect us to do, which is make sure
that we have elections that are fair.
And as that relates to the Department of Justice,
that means making sure that there
are no constitutional legal violations even at the state
level.
So yes, the President Trump, this administration knows
and of course understands that states administer elections,
and that will always be the case.
But it doesn't mean the federal government
should play no role.
And so the tension there is, of course,
whether we should be playing the role that we're playing.
And that's really what we're litigating.
How far are you willing to take this fight?
Because you've been ruled against now 22 times.
Are you going to take this all the way to the Supreme
Court?
Do you anticipate?
We'll see.
We'll see what happens.
We're trying to work out what's going on with states.
Of course, yes, absolutely it's a possibility.
Election integrity is something that President Trump ran on
and the American people elected him.
It's something that every American should care about.
And so the idea that the Department of Justice
is trying to investigate issues around elections
to make sure they're fair
and make sure they're conducted the right way
is not something that we should be running away from.
That's something we should be running right towards.
I wanna finally shift gears here a little bit
and ask you about an issue that is full disclosure
close to us here at NBC,
the kidnapping of Savannah Guthrie's beloved mom Nancy.
The FBI told the Wall Street Journal, quote,
the state is the lead in this investigation
has always been the lead. Mr. Attorney General, she has been missing for more than six months
now. Is it time for the FBI to take the lead in this investigation?
Didn't she die? Isn't it over? Also, yeah. Yeah, let's bring in the competent law enforcement
agency led by Cache Patel. This is why I always say if I actually hated America I would be a
Republican. Okay? If I wanted America to collapse, I would just be a Republican because that's
precisely what they do. If I if I just hated the American working class, if I hated America,
If I just wanted it to die, I would be a Republican.
These guys are killing the American Empire.
They're killing America. They're killing American democracy.
They're just destroying everything.
It's crazy.
It's a horrible situation, and I share the grief and the frustration
that you and your colleagues have and that the whole country has in the situation.
I mean, I think whether we take whether the FBI takes the lead, we are there to support and give and President Trump pledged it
Director Patel pledged it the resources anything that that investigation needs
We are working as hard as we can with the state and local law enforcement in every area and that that means not only
Providing assistance with manpower, but any sort of forensic assistance
And so we're gonna continue to do that whether we come in with with sharp elbows and take it over
That's not necessarily the right thing to do for her or for anybody, but making sure it's done right and making sure that this investigation is being conducted the way that it should be is something we're doing.
Is there an update? Are you any closer to solving this?
I don't have any update. And I'm sorry to say that because I wish I had an update.
And I know that this type of case is heartbreaking, especially when it plays out nationally like this one has.
And all I can say is that Director Patel and his leadership, and the leadership out in that area of the country,
it will remain a priority as it should.
It's pretty wild because he's so shit.
He's like super weak, too.
Savannah Guthrie's missing mom takes a shocking turn after human remains found. Authorities
have declined to identify the deceased individual whose body was recovered.
I mean, so they found the body? Is that what it is?
He just comes across like such a bitch, Todd Blanche, I mean.
Oh my God, Attorney General Todd Blanche is launching a new process that allows individuals
lost their gun rights because it fell into commissions that apply to have them reinstated.
Hell yeah, dude. This reminds me of when Pete Hegseth was like,
we need to, we need to up our tactical readiness on American bases, American military bases. So
we're just going to let everyone have their guns when they're, you know, when they're in the barracks.
That's what it, that's what it reminds me of. This is awesome.
Hell yeah, dude. Fuck it.
Make it a god damn turkey shoot. What is this? Hogs are the best?
Fuck Obama!
What? Why?
Black king!
Black shit!
Black... Fuck Obama!

Dude, what the fuck? Oh my God. This lady is awesome, dude. She's so sick.
You know, epochs time, epoch times, sorry epoch times straight up warped so many of our wonderful
Asian aunties and aunts minds. It's over. It's so over. It will never be. It will never,
there will never be a course correction, okay?
You guys don't understand the damage is done, okay?
Epoch Times basically destroyed the entire Boomer class.
I'm trying to save these because this is really good material what else you got
I'm a huge fuck. I'm a huge fuck. Obama's a black king
Yeah, why did you say black king like that's not negative about Obama?
What why black king?

Hey, you know what Charlie Kirk's pronouns are?
No, no, no
You're nothing, you're it
Was and were
You're it, you're it
You're it, you're it
You know what his last words were?
Yeah, better than you
Better than you
this is fun. All the gun control advocates are too busy getting mad at you over Israel
to care about Blanche though. I forgot about that. Yeah, Shannon Watts yesterday said I'm
like she destroyed the NRA and she's going to destroy me just like the NRA by posting
about me every day.
And then proceeded to hide like 7,000 replies to her that were like, what the fuck are you
talking about Shannon?
Are you insane?
What?
She's like this lady.
Remember her?
Yeah, my goat, my queen, Lily Tang Williams.
She hates me, dude.
Holy shit.
She talks about me all the time.
I think she went on Tim Pool's, Tim Pool show to talk about how like, you know, she would
destroy me in the marketplace of ideas because I love Mao Zedong and like she
suffered under Mao Zedong or something I don't know
you're one of the few people I can debate with downtown today I like but
not you your mouth is she says she likes debating but not on him because his

material what else you got I'm a huge fuck I'm a huge fuck Obama's a black king
she's so dope what a queen I can't I can watch this over and over again this is
Is this even hogwash at this point?
What is this?
What did she say?
A Sompiker, I grew up under Mao Zedong.
You don't know what you're talking about.
You should listen to survivors like me instead of your Marxist professors want to debate
me.
He started his great leap forward campaign in the 50s and killed two many landlord owners.
40 million to 60 million people estimated starving to death.
people were trading their children's dead bodies to eat to survive.
That's her. That's her. Congressional lad.
Dude, I fucking love. I god damn it, dude. This country is the best country, dude.
What other country are you allowed to be like?
Like genuinely insane, you could add news 24 to the definition law suit.
The host accused you of mocking Holocaust survivors, wait, what?
Here he appears to be mocking both 9-11 and Holocaust survivors.
What is that?
Remember 9-11.
Shout out.
Go back to where she was.
Remember 9-11.
What?
what I can't even make fun of the the idea fake tapes about Mavi Marmara
without these motherfuckers being like that's his own sincere position I am
obviously doing a fucking voice too like you can't even yeah that was with the
Israeli recordings. Bro, we are, I mean, what are we doing? What are we doing? All satire
is a crime now. You can add Trump to the lawsuit. He just truth about you. Wait, what? He did
not post this. America's served 9 11, a Sompiker said, wait, Trump posted a truth. But wait,
Is this the first ever Trump mention?
Did he?
Is this the first ever Trump mention?
Is this actually on true social
or are you guys fucking around?
No, this is not happening.
It's not, he's not, he didn't do that.
No, this is just like a random fucking Trump account.
False.
Yeah, he's too busy talking about India's chief election commissioner.
Yeah, my goat is up to...
My goat is up to, you know, presidential shit.
He's doing president shit.
Also now I have to pay $100,000 a month to see what he actually posted.
This is something he actually posted.
Hey Donald, we cool, right?
That is something he posted.
Brief moment of fear.
All right, one of South Florida's newly drawn congressional districts is ground zero for
this question.
Does democratic socialism resonate in South Florida?
Primary results in other states reflect increasing support that comes with increasing
frustrations over the costs of health care and housing and income disparities.
The new district 25 stretches north south all along South Florida's east coast communities
from Miami Beach up to Delray Beach with a couple of jogs inland.
The incumbent congressman Jared Moskowitz, he was with us last week.
His primary challenger is Democrat Oliver Larkin, a member of and endorsed by the DSA,
the Democratic Socialist of America.
Oliver Larkin is right here at the table live with us today.
So nice to have you on the pro.
A lot of people in here are going to be mad if it stays red for the next 50 years.
You mean America?
America? You think the United States of America will survive another 50 years, especially
if it's Republican for the next 50? That is the most delusional thing I've ever listened,
big dog. America will not survive the next 10 years if Donald Trump doesn't refuse to
leave office, okay? What are you talking about? The delusion from this chatter is so funny
because like, dude, let me tell you something, okay? You are probably not a billionaire.
I assume you're probably not a multimillionaire either. So there is nothing good coming for
you if if the United States of America continues to be controlled by the Republicans or even
by most corporate Democrats either it's just not gonna happen for you it's pure fantasy
so cool watching your watching men go to girls bathrooms a lot of them shunna push it oh my
My God, your brain is so warped.
Dude, dude, dude.
What the fuck are you talking about?
What are you talking about?
This is not, you have envisioned an alternative reality
where you're thinking about like 1% of the population
and where they get to piss and shit all the time.
Because you're a psycho.
Because it's the easiest way to manipulate you.
Okay, Donald Trump banned transgender athletes
from NCAA, right? 49 of them, they're banned. Are you doing better overall? Sometimes it's
great to just sit back, take a deep breath, close your eyes and go, why does this bother
me so much? Is this something that will actually improve my life, my living circumstances at
all. It's not. They broke your brain. Your brain is broken. Gas is about to be
$5 a gallon. The president is a servile little piggy to Israel's interests.
Israel has to use our military like its own mercenary force. You understand that?
None of the prices got fixed
You're never getting health care and you're over here being like well at least the trend enders don't get to pre in the back
Brr brr brr brr brr like what the fuck?
It can't be this easy man. I don't want you to be sheep, okay?
I want you to be smarter. I have health care, okay?
How much are your fucking premiums jackass? How much higher are your premiums?
And before you say, oh, well, the Democrats made that hard too. I agree. Yeah, it should be free
Not that much. Oh, you're doing you're doing fine. Okay, got it. I
Feel that's a Canadian now
Odds of him being a disabled vet. No, my family living good. Okay classic
By the way, the Republican, uh, the, the Republican Cope is so awesome.
We've now officially moved into fantasizing about living in an alternative reality because
they have to.
They can't just say like, nah, shit's actually kind of busted.
Maybe we need to make some changes.
So they have to just straight up be like, nah, everything's good, dude.
Everything's fucking great, dude.
What are you talking about?
I'm living Lovito Loco, dude.
The price of rice went up 45%, okay?
45%.
What the fuck are you talking about?
You're so fucking stupid, dude.
Yeah, enjoy your $30 burrito, jackass.
I'll come back when Vance becomes president
and you can yab about him for the next eight years.
We are not going to make it.
Okay?
We are not gonna make it.
You are not going to make it.
This is not happening.
You're not gonna make it.
Look at his Twitch clips.
oh my god he's fucking oh god that's awesome he's uh look at his PFP I'm gonna
sub to this guy
My god, I just freaking slapped him so hard.
That's a good clip.
What's that, dude?
Why do you look like Asmongold?
Oh, man, I love this guy.
Yeah, we will.
Doug, you're not a part of the team.
I don't know how to describe this to you.
You are not a part of the team.
Okay?
Even due to my financial circumstances, I am more a part of the team than you are.
Okay?
I don't want to be a part of the team, but that's how it works in this goddamn country.
You on the other hand, you're fucked!
Wake up dude, wake up!
You are defending this system that is literally not invested in your well-being at all!
Nah, no beef, man, I was young.
Nah, no beef though, both sides are kinda dumb, I agree on some points.
Oh my lord.
And why the fuck are you advocating for Peter Thiel's Bloodboy JD Vance to be the president?
Dumbass.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
Also, you're over here.
You're over here.
Talk about how both sides are bad.
Okay, who do you think both sides are attacking?
me motherfucker and you are a part of the both sides
i'm getting as blasted by the establishment democrats i'm getting as
blasted by the entire republican party
and you're over here like yeah both sides are kind of dumb except i do agree
with one side over the other
you got
duped into believing that the republican party cares about your interest
because they told you
that 1% of the population trans people are somehow destroying your life or your livelihood.
They're just trying to live, man. Just leave them alone. Who gives this shit? Okay? And
the best example is that Donald Trump has been combating transgenderism all up and down
your state and every state in this goddamn country. And our economic situation is dire.
I told her, these are the small sacrifices we must make so that trans people can no longer
play college sports.
Yeah, it was a day, 300 people got laid off including Bill.
Something about the tariffs and cost increases, you know these corporations don't want anything
cutting into their profit margins.
Now Bill, he was pretty upset, he was almost crying, he was like, I don't know what I'm
going to tell Sally.
And it was like a switch went off and he was like, at least trans people are being kicked
out of the military without access to their benefits.
Whoa, honey, you remember Frank and Sheila down the street?
Sheila got deported today.
Yeah, she's been here for 35 years, pays her taxes, no criminal record, U.S. born children.
I don't know, yeah.
Frank was pissed.
I mean, but then it was like he kind of calmed down and he just looked off into the distance and said
At least we have a president who declared their role in two genders
No, I'm
Red
Hatch acts like bottom of the barrel but it's sensational
How fucking corrupt and shameless administration is on every issue at every level just absolute fucking insanity completely pointless
This newly confirmed attorney general, Todd Blanch, speaking of the Trump rally to endorse
Bruce Blakeman. Yeah. If they could outright steal the election, they would. These are
not people who care about law, democracy. And I remain infinitely frustrated with whiny
idiots like this who are effectively, and I remain, uh, free, effectively free riding
out to infrastructure of liberal democracy while still complaining about woke. Sorry
to live out, but this shit legitimately piss me off. Yes. I don't think you, I don't think
is living out. Like, I think that the current existing process of democracy, if it's better
than what the Republicans want to replace it with, and it should be defended. Okay? I don't think
it's living out. I think it's fucking insane that the Republicans are just stealing everything
right in front of our eyes, dude. I want to punish them. What are we doing?
That's my argument. My argument is look, look, look, look, look. It's not like the Democrats
Big fans of mine as they have shown over and over again. It's they just straight up love
They would love for the Republican Party to put me and all of you in this community and all the fucking commies on Twitter
In a goddamn concentration camp. They would love it. Okay, they would fucking
Love that shit. Many of them are not even hiding
That they would love that shit. Many of them are straight up working with the Republicans
Okay
I want to stop the hammering. I want a little bit of fucking accountability.
McKeem-Geverry's defended Randy Fine earlier, yeah. McKeem-Geverry's would rather defend
Randy fucking Fine than someone like myself. Okay, it's never going to happen. I don't expect it.
It doesn't matter. But we'll cross that bridge when we get there. Right now, we need to reinforce
a system of accountability, okay? And that requires a Senate majority for the Democrats.
That's it. We gotta gum up the works. Because unless many of you, lapers especially, who constantly
say, oh, what do you mean, lARPing? What do you mean, lARPing? What? No, we're gonna start doing
sabotage. Unless you are ready to do that, you need to shut the fuck up and get on board with
the program. We need to gum up the works. And even if your goals were to do sabotage, okay?
We still need to come up the works at the legislative level. It's that simple.
Do you understand? Like people, people constantly fucking chirp like as though they have a different
alternative strategy. They don't, they just want to chirp. That's all it is. It's very fucking annoying.
Yeah, maybe you peasants are against the billionaires. I'm not. Yeah, this is a classic.
You're not. You're part of the meat shield surrounding the real fascists while they rape children. That's what you are, is true.
You're part of the meat shield surrounding the real fascists while they rape children. That's what you are.
Maybe you peasants are against the billionaires. I'm not.
It's LARP's it's LARP's all the way down
Here's another take
Literally going to allow me to commit voter fraud in vote in other people's names because dude
This one is so funny because Cam Higby tried to do voter fraud and immediately got caught and he still released the video about how
It's super easy to do voter fraud. Okay. Well, you got caught dumbass. What do you mean?
I wore this to the polling locations. My intent was never to cast a ballot. I never touched
Navi David. I never touched a ballot. I never touched a piece of paper or a computer. The
goal was to point out the voter abilities in the Minneapolis election system.
Hi, Cam. I love how you bought a whole-ass Berka just to prove absolutely nothing. So
let me see if I got this right, Cam. You put a Berka on and then you went out to the polls
in Minnesota to prove that voter fraud is a very serious problem. And you decided to
demonstrate this by not casting a fraudulent vote. Is that right? Cam, did you think that you were
proving that rampant voter fraud was happening by not doing it? Am I, am I missing something?
And what's funny, Cam, is the reason you didn't end up casting a fraudulent vote is the exact same
reason that everyone else also doesn't try impersonating someone at the polls, because they offered you
an affidavit to sign and you knew that if you signed that you would be risking a felony. And that's
Oh my god, he has a criminal probe. Conservative Influencers face a criminal probe. Oh my god. Oh my god.
Oh, I love this shit so much. Oh, he's such a fucking idiot, dude.
Yeah, get probe, jackass.
When it came time to actually test your theory and cast a fraudulent vote, you said,
You said hold on I got to go get my friends and then you ran out to your truck and you drove home
Okay, I'm not sure if you think we're living in minority report
But you thinking about doing a crime does not equate to that crime
Actually happening like if you sat outside of a bank and thought about robbing it
But then you decided not to that would not prove that rampant bank robberies are happening
You understand so it was a cute YouTube video cam and the burka looks awesome
But all you did was prove that people are too afraid to fraudulently vote
So maybe next time try showing us something other than you walking up to a counter chickening out and going home, okay?
So awesome
In this context, what do you mean by LARPers?
People who refuse to understand or or even engage
Charitably with what I am trying to accomplish
that just simply cast it aside as liberal sheepdogging,
harnessing and taking the revolutionary potential
of the masses and then slamming it back to voting
for the Democrats by any ballot, by any ballots necessary,
by any vote necessary, that idea.
There are a lot of people.
There are a lot of people like this.
There are a lot of people that are, you know,
obviously incredibly ineffective and and utterly relevant to the grand scheme of things, but they
This was funny. We analyzed 25
Thousand hours of was on piger life shoes one word that I did that is never used civility. The hasam bitch pitchbot is cooking
There are a lot of people out there who just think that, like, there is this revolution
waiting to happen, this spontaneous revolution that's waiting to happen, and that, you know,
we would have that revolution tomorrow. We'd have a communist revolution tomorrow if it
wasn't for people like myself. Okay. And I try not to complain about these guys all
the time, but they get so goddamn annoying, and they're constantly fucking on my goddamn
for you page because Elon Musk wants me to go crazy. They make it seem like I have a
a button, a communism now button on my desk and I'm just like refusing to hit it.
Oh my god, here we go.
Michael is a Nepo baby limousine socialist who makes millions streaming and lives in a nearly
three million dollar house. He got rich off capitalism. Now he's railing against capitalism.
They're still going.
Hit the button coward.
I refuse to hit it.
I have a communism now button and I am refusing to hit it, okay?
You live in a three million dollar house I'm out of here yep and the price keeps going
up dude you could cover something else here we go tanky-panky 420 yeah they they do it
every day. There's five other Fox News segments from today. I thought if you thought they were
slowing down, they're not. Yes, they're not going to stop until someone fucking kills me. Okay.
I want to know what they mean by like making, making their money under capitalism.
Like, what is, yes, I exist in a capitalist universe. Okay. What do you mean? Like,
Like I didn't like start a fucking anarchist commune off the grid or something like what is the what is the alternative?
Yes, I work for capitalists. I stream on a capitalist platform. There are no alternatives
okay
There are no real
Alternatives there's nothing there's no viable alternatives to this system. Everyone works for a capitalist
Okay, everyone, everyone works for a capitalist. You got billionaire athletes that are still working for 10 billionaire team owners. Okay, that's just how it works.
They make it seem like I have a factory.
a factory. But even then it's like okay sure I've given up on trying to explain my class position
or anything like that because let's be real I mean a lot of leftists also buy into this okay a lot
of leftists also buy into this so I am caving I am now officially an opportunist I'm a tailist I am
leaning into the, the reactionary argument. Right? A reactionary argument. I am a bourgeois
small business owner, petite bourgeois business owner who is a class trader. Okay. That's my new,
that's my new meta. I'm just going to say, yeah, I'm a class trader. Fuck it. I'm a class trader.
What are you gonna do?
That's me
Oh, no the troughs are gonna love that I don't care I
I don't care. I don't give a shit. Yeah, I'm a I'm a shipping magnate. I'm an international business owner. I love commerce
Free of the markets for the people and I'm a fucking class trader. How about that?
That's it
There's no way to operate outside of the confines of capitalism. That's not a thing.
You just made several five persons. This was very upset. No, I think they would be like
you see he admitted it. Yeah, I love commerce and I want to bring into the beautiful nation
state of Singapore, but I cannot.
Thanks so much for coming in.
Wonderful to be joining you, Glana.
Two days for some really interesting results
that I think a lot of people are watching
and going to learn from.
I want to start with you, though.
You have been in politics a lot.
Worked for Bernie Sanders, organizer, union organizer.
What, right now, right here, what do you do for living?
I'm a digital marketing consultant.
I've worked in political marketing and digital advertising
with Democratic candidates, campaigns, unions,
and I've done that at various agencies
over the course of 10 years. In January of 2025, I opened my own LLC and began working
for myself helping candidates locally. And it wasn't before long that a few people approached
me about running for this race. So I know advertising, I know return on investment. And
I think that's what taxpayers are looking for. And boy, isn't marketing so much a part of
candidacies now always? My controversial opinion is this lady was like kind of fine
and kind of nice until the conversation shifted over to Israel and then it just
like fell apart and she just said like insane things like it was totally
cordial until Israel it was like it's just like a like a switch flipped in her
fucking mind or something so how did you get involved with you've been a
Democrat how did you get involved with the DSA because I don't think the
Democrat Socialism America were as part of the conversation of any campaign that I can
remember in my tenure as a reporter.
How did you get involved with that?
Yeah, I became a Democrat at 16 when Barack Obama was running for president the first
time.
I was a high school motor voter getting my voter registration with my driver's license,
but I started identifying with Democratic Socialism when I began volunteering and then working
on Senator Bernie Sanders' 2016 campaign and I formally joined the organization in 2020
the height of a once in a century health care pandemic when I did not see the Democratic
Party fighting for Medicare for All when we were all relying on one another for our
collective well-being.
I felt that it was important to build a parallel power structure to the Democratic Party that
was really more responsive to the needs of ordinary Americans.
We'll get into all of those kind of issues.
I really want to look at D25 right now, brand new district, a pretty sp...
Like, it's very cordial and you would think like, oh, wow, this is a person who is doing
their job.
This is a normal Florida local news broadcaster.
A normal Florida news broadcaster.
Surely this conversation will continue being normal.
The Blitt district, by design, by Florida Republican lawmakers,
who wanted to make it a bit tougher for incumbent Moskowitz to have a race.
And so the word socialism, let's talk about marketing,
let's talk about communications.
The word socialism in South Florida to many people
is just a non-starter.
These are people who came from socialist dictatorships
who have a firsthand perspective of socialism as a failure.
How do you speak to these people,
many of whom are gonna live in this district,
this district is heavily Hispanic,
how do you explain yourself to them?
yeah the operative word is democratic that i want
uh... popular uh... collective input over the systems that govern our lives
and i believe in multi-party democracy i believe in upholding our civil and
constitutional rights which
uh... many people fled uh... places like cuba or nika rauga
uh... as my uh... wife's parents did uh... back in the nineteen eighties
uh... looking for a better life in the united states of america and i believe
that our policies
uh... are actually more supportive of people trying to achieve the american
dream making sure that
employer-based health insurance is not an encumbrance to
people starting their own small business, their entrepreneurship, and I think that
when we look at what the fears of socialism are, we actually see the
repression of social and political rights
emanating from the Trump administration, and I think what the most popular
policies that democratic socialists are running on, like Medicare for All,
raising the minimum wage to a living wage, it really addresses the cost of
living concerns that many in South Florida, including
our Latino residents, have.
And the devil is in the details and those things again. I want to talk about that
But I want to I really worked hard for our interview today to define for myself
What does this mean because you know, I think we try to get out of the political rhetoric and the propaganda
I really want to know factually. What does all of this mean and you tell me if this is valid us?
markets create wealth and then the government
supplies some of the well hopefully all of the safety net in
In democratic socialism, the market creates wealth and then taxes and regulation
spread it out for everyone's benefit. Does that sound valid to you?
I think that's a fair characterization. I think that we have a system
currently with quite low corporate and higher-earned income and tax rates.
And I want to see us restore much of the mid-20th century
top marginal tax rates, making sure that we're closing tax loopholes
So that we're actually having equitable payment into the systems that are very popular like Medicare like Social Security
But that do not provide the full spectrum of care
So I think that that's an accurate way to represent it. All right, so let's get into Medicare for all everybody needs health care
Not everyone gets the health care they need. That's just a fact in the United States a function of money is involved in health care
But there's also the pharmaceutical in there.
How are we going to pay for it?
How are we going to pay for it?
Industrial complex.
It is a big business.
Translate for me a very utopic idea of everybody getting
the very best healthcare they need for free.
Dude, it's awesome.
I love that we're calling the basic function of
social democracy that exists in virtually every country
that is poorer than ours is utopic like as though Canada is a utopia as though the
UK is a utopia so every every like Scandinavia every Nordic the social
democracy is a fucking utopia France is a utopia Turkey is a utopia Turkey a much
much, much poorer country, like Turkey is a fucking utopia, Mexico, utopia.
We are the only OECD nation that does not have some form of socialized medicine.
You guys understand how insane that is?
We are the only OECD country that does not have socialized medicine, and in the most
American fashion, we act as though everyone else is crazy.
We are the crazy one.
Not only paying for it, because that's always everyone's question, and that's a big one,
but incentivizing the people working in it to be the best doctors, not overwhelmed with
the medical needs of people who are so sick.
talk to people who have to pay for the person who smokes and drinks.
That's an insane, okay. The part that she's not mentioning is actually psychotic. Because she's,
the part that she's not mentioning in this argument is right now doctors are not overwhelmed
because we just let poor people who are really sick die.
Okay. That's what she's saying. She's basically saying we just let poor people die and that's why
our system is not overburdened, which is not even true by the way. Our systems are overburdened.
What are we doing? God, when I hear stuff like this and then I hear like Americans
sincerely advanced this agenda that is so focused on rugged individualism that they
come across as objectively sociopathic, I think maybe, maybe we won't have any fucking
any, any socialization in this country.
Perhaps that's not going to happen.
It doesn't eat well and is terribly unhealthy when the person who's paying for it is very
conscious of their health.
Yeah, I saw this. Take me through the door.
Well, I'm behind the scenes about this appearance, says Zach Boff.
Well, Oliver was on air.
I was in the other room in a sitting floor to stay representative,
called me a self-hating Jew and said, I support the eradication of my own people.
Oh, my God.
These people are so fucking insane, dude.
And what do you, what do you say to a guy that thinks that?
Oh, no, if Israel doesn't maintain an apartheid and continue doing genocide, every Jew will
die.
You are a psychopath, okay?
I'm sorry, that is psychotic.
I don't know why we have to live in a world where we have to act like that is a normal
position to maintain just because a bunch of people maintain it. Okay? That is not a normal
position. That's an insane position to have. Anyone and everyone for any other ethnic group,
for any other religious minority, if they behaved like this, okay, and Jews are not all like this
for the record, this is just like hyper Zionist American Jews who advanced this argument. But
But that is, that's psychotic.
That's like a crazy thing.
I don't know what it is, but this is,
like that argument is so psychotic
that it's like a soapbox argument
that you hear from someone standing at a subway station.
You know what I mean?
And yet we have normalized this argument.
What the fuck?
to where you want to be?
Yeah, I think when we look at insurance pools as a whole, it's having the broadest possible
risk pool.
The same way that when we look at the fragmentation of the property insurance market in Florida
and these sky-high rates that people are dealing with, we're suffering from the same
issue with the healthcare market.
Also, once again, the notion that you know, Jews are not safe in fucking Boko Raton.
If Israel is not armed and funded to the fucking gills, he's extra insane.
Like what are you talking about bro?
You live in Boko Raton man.
What are you talking about?
Please, please stop with this madness, please, I beg of you, so many of these motherfuckers
went to college, they're like educated people, they're kind people overall, it's like crazy
that there's just this some, there's something that short circuits in the minds of so many
people because of, unfortunately, unbelievable amounts of social conditioning that they just
like cannot snap out of it, they don't recognize it as fucking hysteria.
Oh
The editors of the Atlantic read this and found this very thought-provoking
sides insisting that he will protect Jewish people like his own daughters is striking and couldn't help hearing an almost direct echo of the 7th century pact of
Umar the paradigmatic formulation of the protections granted the Jews and other non Muslims under Islamic rule in exchange for deference and legalized subordination
The pact of the dimmy is
Stop I can't read this shit
Just, just go to therapy man, go to therapy. You're an insane person. You need medical intervention. You need medical intervention now.
I was currently where, um, there's what we hear is that we want competition.
No, they're not. Kind people at all. They're all vicious racial supremacists. Always have been. This isn't surprising.
I mean, I guess it's like, I guess it's like the, the fucking, uh, Klans member who's like, you know, really fun at parties or something until you get him start, until you get him started on black people, you know what I mean?
people, you know what I mean? Like, I guess it's like that. Like, I don't disagree with
your point. It's just like, I think it's, it largely stems from the fact that like, Jews
by and large, both historically and in contemporary American society have always been the bedrock
of progressive movements. So that's the reason why it like, if you're a Klan's member and
you're like a right winger, you're a Trump supporter, or you're like a lifelong Republican,
And then you reveal your position on black people. That's not that big of a step. That's
not that great of a step all of a sudden. You didn't just like flip the script entirely.
I'm not like shocked that the guy who's wearing the fucking stars and bars all of a sudden
reveals to me that they're a Klans member, right?
It's not. It's not a great leap from that position to the revelation that they have,
maximalist attitudes about racial supremacy. For Jews, on the other hand, who are, for the most part,
like, very historically, with the exception of black people in this country,
Jews have been very progressive. They've been a very progressive force as a, as a ethnic or
racial minority in this country, always, okay, prominently featured in the civil rights struggle
And, and still even in contemporary society, it's like 75% of American Jews vote for the
Democratic Party.
Sure, there's like Orthodox communities that, that are more socially conservative and stuff
like that.
But, but ultimately, ultimately in academic circles, just like very liberal, right?
Very, very liberal.
And when you're a very liberal, very progressive person, you are firmly committed to certain
values, right?
You're firmly committed to certain values, like liberal values, social progressivism.
You're like across the board progressive usually, but then something fucking flips in your brain.
That's gotta be mainly PR.
No, it's not mainly PR.
I don't think you've lived around many Jews if you think it's mainly PR. Okay, it's not
It is
Do it is antithetical
To your worldview if on the one hand in the United States of America, you're like I you know
I love all racial minorities
We must live together in harmony and all this stuff
But then when you think about Israel something flips in your mind and you're like in every wreck every Arab is a rapist barbarian
That must be put down
Like, that's, it doesn't make any sense.
It is a little different.
It is 100% a little different than like a guy who is, um, a guy who's like kind of
racist and you suspect them to be racist or lifelong Republican.
And then you find out that they're, you know, a Klansman.
That's, that's what's so crazy that juxtaposition is crazy to me.
There's got to be mainly PRs to put the spotlight on one rather than the collective work together.
The multiple groups we see this when the races openly said we helped do in the civil rights
you owe us.
Racist people in the United States of America don't say we helped you in the civil rights
you owe us.
Racist people in the United States of America say the civil rights movement was a mistake.
That's the difference.
But Charlie Kirk was against the civil rights movement.
What are we talking about?
Not really different from how European Sarkans are all insanely Islamophobic, even some
Euro socialists can be really racist? No, for sure. You are behind the meta. No, man,
it is diametrically the opposite position that you have. If you are otherwise a very
progressive Jewish Zionist, if you are a pep, progressive except for Palestine, you live,
you exist in this insane mental, this mental castle that you have designed for yourself,
okay? Where on the one hand, you're like maximalist with all of your social,
progressive values, this cognitive dissonance that you experience when it comes to Palestine
and Palestinians is shocking to me. How do you not in any way shape or form
attribute similar values to the to the Arabs that are being destroyed?
Like how how do you not recognize this contradiction? I
Will never understand it
What that really means is that there are a few private health insurance industries that
Really have a monopoly over the marketplace and are able to charge
Whatever they want not just to consumers, but our people in need of health care
But to hospitals to the places that need to reimburse for these costs
So what I would like to see in the United States, which is the wealthiest nation on earth not to guarantee health care is a right
And we pay twice as much per capita as other peer nations with similar incomes with worse outcomes
So I want to see us make sure that Medicare is expanded to cover everyone expanded and improved including coverage for vision hearing mental health care
reproductive health care and you want to see that but that's a wholesale change
Does that practically speaking do you see that as a possibility?
possibility in the way you're speaking about it.
I do.
The phase in of a Medicare for all system would lower the Medicare eligibility age from 65
to 55 to 45 until it eventually within a few years covers everyone.
This is actually a more cost effective way of delivering healthcare for people because
we wouldn't have premiums, deductibles, copayments or out of pocket costs and the enormous administrative
cost that healthcare providers, that doctors and nurses spend so much time getting claims
covered or going back and forth with the insurance paperwork that takes away from their actual
capacity to deliver this care.
Talk to me about ICE. You've said you want to defund ICE. ICE right now in the news for
things that go wrong. However.
Like, I'm willing to bet this person is anti-ICE. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe they're actually right
weighing. Maybe I'm totally getting wrong. But I know many, like I know many American
Jewish Zionists who are like anti-ice, they're like abolishized, really fucked up what they're
doing to ethnic minorities and then you start, you get them talking about Israel and they
just, they immediately turn into ISIS because they're enforcers.
Like how, how does that happen?
Do you see what I'm saying?
Maybe she's not like that.
Her immigration and customs enforcement is a critical part of the nation's security.
Yeah, she's not, she's not, she's right-wing.
It's clear.
Defunding ICE and replacing that with what?
We had a system of immigration enforcement prior to 2003 with the establishment of DHS
and ICE being created.
The United States was able to function for well over two centuries with a more civil
administration over the immigration system.
Okay, let me just stop you there.
So you're not, is it?
High-trend incoming.
At level 10, we carry the flame.
You already know, ladies and gentlemen.
10 we carry the flame and we're also nearing the pivot point on this interview this the dramatic pivot point
hype train incoming subscribe to the people's broadcasting service pbs piker broadcasting service
uh if you want to support independent media
you want to support independent media subscribe at level 10 hype train we will carry the flame
Do funding that you want to do or just revolving back to a pre-President Trump policy?
I want to abolish ICE. I do not think that a militarized immigration enforcement agency
is necessary. When immigration, when there are violations of the immigration policy of
this country, these are civil violations. They're not criminal and they don't need criminal
enforcement or militarized enforcement. What I would like to see is a system with much
more capacity for immigration courts to adjudicate and process asylum claims and process people
to make sure that there is documentation.
I want to have a safe and secure border.
That means a humane border where people are not risking their lives to come to the United
States of America.
I want to make sure that people, when they come into the United States, they're duly
processed and they receive their paperwork so that they're able to pay and contribute
uh... to society and and really to the american dream
uh... we know that immigrants uh...
are more predisposed to entrepreneurship to small business ownership
they pay taxes in the systems they don't always uh... happy i would like to
receive the benefit of the government and our society and
uh... i think that if we have a uh... more holistic and humane approach
you got six people from israel watching stream yes
i have the entire
anti-zionist israeli contingency in my audience
every anti-zionist uh... israeli is a house on obi head actually is not true
but most of them are to immigration enforcement i think that's going to be
uh... to the betterment of not just those of us in south florida across the
country another big issue that's going to be in twenty five where one in i think
the statistic is one in four voters in the twenty five is jewish
You have said you want to essentially defund Israel. Israel, one of many countries that the U.S. contributes to.
How are you going to explain to your Jewish voters that you would like to essentially put Israel in an existential threat?
I look at this as making sure that we actually practice democracy abroad as well as at home.
when the nation state law in Israel was passed in I believe 2018 that created a much more
tiered system of.
It feels like something in the Jewish community changed and changed very radically after the
commencement of the 1967 war.
That's when you saw the rise of the JDL and refocusing on Jewish ethnic nationalism in
Chicago and New York City, which strained the racially diverse coalition of civil rights
error proponents, which heavily leaned on black and Jewish solidarity.
Citizenship that privileges Jewish citizens above Palestinians.
i don't believe it is in the united states interest to support that we've
also got our own laws on the books the leaky laws that they've been
the military funding from the department of defense and department of state from
providing
let me just stop you for one second that that actually is factually incorrect
the there was
not a palestinian state in
in eighteen
what i want to talk about is the here and now of the state of israel
exists in nineteen forty eight which actually was supposed to be a two-state
solution and then rejected by the arab states but
Here and now, a large chunk of the funding that goes to Israel is defensive funding for
Iron Dome, or other defensive, and then military funding greatly increased after the October
7th massacre.
So I guess my question to you is taking away Israel's money, which actually is a much more
complicated equation because Israeli tech and the economic benefits that come back to
the U.S. for job creation is all part and parcel of that, which a lot of people talk
about, but taking away a defensive mechanism for a state which has an existential threat
all around it, stated by the terrorists who want to annihilate it, you're essentially
taking away defense.
And I think that's a very important thing for viewers in your district, because that's
what they want to hear you talk about, why?
Israel's committing a genocide in Gaza.
That's incorrect.
That is factually incorrect.
by the united nations and in the standard
that's factually incorrect is crazy
national and even israeli human rights organizations including betsal and
there's
the definition of genocide in the u and the u and has said this does not apply
to what many people might think as a disproportionate war time action
that's what that is
in many people's minds genocide is a very specific thing
actually genocide being committed
against jewish people
not by israel and that's just
what
i'm sorry
what the fuck are you saying
genocide can only happen if it's coming from one specific region you know it's
just like genocide can only happen to Jewish people. The inverse of that can never be true.
I mean, the United Nations recently in Geneva found that the IDF had...
There is no... I guess she was trying to say that October 7 was a genocide and the retaliation was
not, which is so psychotic. How does that come out of your mouth? Do you not hear yourself?
Deliberately targeted women and children. There's been
famine conditions imposed over the Gaza Strip by the blockading of aid
entering the strip there's been indiscriminate bombing of hospitals of
mosques of churches of again i'm gonna have to stop you as that is
factually not correct um but that's yes it is you can't just say it's
factually not correct
but i hear you talking about something very important to a lot of people and
certainly who think that way. But they're delusional, but they think that way. And by that, she means
like, I guess, uh, you know, the ICJ, ICC, every human rights organization on the planet,
including Bitselam, the Israeli human rights organization.
in, you know, they're all just delusional.
As a congressman, I'm being told we have to wrap.
But as a congressman for District 25, I'm hoping your viewers will be able to hear you
flesh that out a little more as well as-
I think he's fleshing it out.
I really do think this is the best thing any TV interview could have done for Larkin.
amazing how bad Zionists are at politics in a democracy is like the premises of an apartheid
rule in Israel have infected the brains of American and European Zionists. There's just
this simplistic knee-jerk rage at dissidents and a desire to use whatever coercive powers
at your disposal to silence it. That might work in Israel where Zionists have all the state power,
but it keeps building blowback here. Yes. No, literally, there is this Zionist brainwarp
that takes over where you just immediately go, no, you have to be silenced. Please, please
stop talking. You're wrong. We're wrapping this up now, please.
In Medicare for All and Universal Education. And we'll see you on the other side of Tuesday.
DSA House Florida Canada appears to cut interview short when Journal of Fact checks Israel genocide
claim. We're definitely in a post-truth society when you can lie to this blatant, leave us
something that happened on live television, and there's no consequence of that. Yeah,
that's, that's pretty wild. Miami television journalist Glennon Milberg received the Hada
Saaz Myrtle Reef Award from the Women's Zionist Organization of America, an honor often referenced
on social media, amid public discussions surrounding her news interviews and community
background. She's a propagandist for Israel.
Protests continue in Israel over judicial reform plans as the country is getting ready
to celebrate 75 years of independence.
Local times Glenda Milberg joins us live from Jerusalem with how people are already
marking the milestone in a city of many fates.
Alex Andrew, think about what a milestone it is when you think about this tiny country
and all of the perils that it has faced since day one in 1948.
Celebration started well days ago, even though the actual day is until Wednesday.
Let me show you some video of so many people from South Florida, thousands from around
the United States who are converging on different cities, usually Jerusalem or Tel Aviv to mark
the.
Also, you see these clip of her on Israel two years ago with Moscovites.
In Congress, the support for Israel is not 100% universal, but.
This was two years ago too.
Oh man.
See, that's what I, that's the other side of the story too. It's like, what do you do?
What do you do when the reality that you have constructed around you, okay, inside of your
mind is collapsing in real time? Like, you have decided and you've lived your life, your
whole life, where it was unconditional support and loyalty to Israel. It was totally bipartisan,
Right virtually everyone in a position of prominence and power was also in line with that agenda and
People who actually opposed this line of thinking would
Very quickly get disposed of like they would get fired. They would lose their jobs
They would be called anti-Semites. They would be considered social pariahs
ousted from their positions of power and prominence, right?
so you like
This is what the reality that you you're used to is the reality that you grew up in and then almost overnight
If you've been around for like 50 years, right?
in a matter of two years
Everything flips and now you can't even publicly
And openly support Israel without people looking at you weird. I
Suspect that for many
Especially many of the Jewish faith who maintain this position
It's immediately like, oh, anti-Semitism is skyrocketing, and it probably doesn't
help because anti-Semitism is also skyrocketing in unison, right?
Because for many Americans, their expression of anti-Israel sentiment
immediately falls back to the easiest to understand version of events, right?
It's just the truth. It sucks, but that is just the truth. This community is a
little bit different than many other spaces on the internet, but for a lot
of people, for a lot of people, due to the the the conflation, the the aggressive
association of Israel and Judaism, many Americans don't fuck with Israel, then
start saying, okay, well, I don't fuck with Jews either. And I guess you see
that all around you and you you harden your stance and you just associate every
criticism of Israel with deep anti-Semitic resentment is just pure Jew hatred. And I
guess it makes sense because like it makes sense to be that hysterical because from your
perspective you just cannot see the world in any other way. You're like this is the
the most awesome country on the planet.
Like this is incredible.
You know, we've made the desert bloom, all this stuff, right?
And now all of a sudden this like,
this little laboratory of democracy
that we've created,
people are seeing it very differently.
People are saying it very, very differently.
I don't know how to fix it.
I don't think we necessarily have to.
But, you know, it's just crazy.
It's so strange to operate in this reality.
And then, like, I try to think about, I try to think about, like, how much that arrogance
and that hubris comes from just, like, knowing how things used to be and how quickly it changed.
universal, bipartisan, bicameral. And yet we are watching in the Biden administration as well,
or watching as the air offensive continues and the images of what the Gazan civilians are
enduring there. You hear the narrative nationwide begin to erode in that support.
I know you and your colleagues are working on resolutions and support. What more can Congress
do to set the narrative, you know, in Congress.
I can't even tell you how many times I've been told to self, I've been called to self-hating
Jew and like being able to communicate that until I showed my family a stream.
More background, David Dole on the viral Oliver clip about Israel, imagine the weatherman
and argued that the Earth is actually flat,
he would be fired on the spot.
That's actually a good take.
I am, and I'm being told we have to wrap.
Her newsroom must have saved her there
because they forced her to end this conversation
where she was factually wrong
while being so confident that she was right.
So first, let's point out,
this is an Emmy Award-winning journalist.
It's like, imagine the weatherman argued
that the Earth is actually flat.
He would be fired on the spot.
Yet you could have an Emmy Award-winning journalist
deny objective reality about the things being stated.
U.N. has acknowledged a genocide.
She says, no, that's not true.
Objectively wrong.
And she's gonna keep her job because
that's how the system operates.
It just gets us to an earlier clip in this interview.
I wanna show you, this is not somebody
who is, you know, Fox News-pilled.
This is somebody who is earnestly trying to understand.
Yeah. I think David Dole's assessment is correct because they're like, she, she was being, look, I've had contentious interviews. Yeah.
All right. Like she's probably a little bit right wing. Um, and she's definitely psycho when it comes to Israel, but for a Florida news broadcast,
there, she was actually being fairly courteous to all of her Larkin's positions.
Like she didn't come in and hit him with like, she didn't come in and hit him with like, Oh, you're out of your mind.
You're fucking dangerous, Kami. Fuck you. You know, like,
I think that switch up makes it even more glaring.
Like it's not like she was super pro fucking Medicare for all either.
But if let's be real,
if someone wanted to be insane on a Fox news local TV show in,
TV show in, or not Fox and Sorry, a local broadcaster in South Florida, they could hit
him on, on, you know, they could hit him on a multifaceted attack with like, in the way
that Sean Hannity does, right?
Like just insane questions behind the camera, a state senator also for interview called
Oliver's Jewish campaign manager, a self aging Jew to his face.
Yeah, I know.
I saw that.
I heard, I read that doesn't need to be said, but I can confirm as a campus leader, we have
a lot of Jewish supporters, Oliver, out number one, our number one canvasser is Jewish and
he's not nearly 3K or solo, very bigoted for them to say all Jews think the same.
The political perspective of Oliver Larkin here. So here's her discussion around democratic
politics.
This person, Fenna Milberg, is earnestly trying to understand democratic socialism. She's
not trying to, you know, position Oliver Larkin as some crazy extremist. She's bringing
this up as a way to try to better understand his.
He's right. David Dole is right. Like, I know, I know contentious media. I mean, I, I experienced
it. I live it on a daily fucking basis. I'm telling you, she, her, her line of questioning
was obviously not exactly positive about democratic socialism, but it also wasn't super antagonistic.
But the perspective, so this is somebody who just truly doesn't not understand that Israel
committed genocide. This is a person who was just, again, it goes to the psychosis of Zionism.
That's what this has to be.
Yeah, Zionist psychosis, Glenn Milbury in an email exchange after the interview admits
to an error on the WPLG local tent stating the UN has said the definition of genocide
does not apply to the situation in Gaza.
She affirms the UN has recognized it as a genocide, WPLG has to, must issue a correction.
Email exchange occurred last night. It was submitted to popstonok for distribution. Okay, dude
She said universal health care is utopian and largenation attorneys in the Cuba guys
guys
Get your brain out of a dude, dude, dude
How many interviews of mine have you watched at this point? What the f**k is wrong with you?
What is wrong with you?
I'm simply stating that there are far more aggressive ways of posturing against Oliver Larkin than the way she conducted herself in the interview until the Israel question came up.
for decades.
America�s liberal Zionists have been living in a bubble where they control the discussion
of censured critics. That�s over in the DSA�s position of no aid to Israel and pro-passion
rise is normal and popular in the US and the world, Posner is the extremist.
It's just crazy.
You literally said that before even playing the clip?
Okay, well, I was right, and I still am right.
Okay.
Scott Haney was more conveneces than this one until Israel happened.
Yeah.
Fucking nuts, dude.
Welcome back to Face the Nation, we turned out of Pennsylvania.
Another carrier video just dropped.
are being pussies about this dude you're on a ship of course it's gonna have
dookie water everywhere
the fuck do you mean do to water is that as in goals room yes state
representative Chris Rapp he's the Democratic Party's nominee in the third
district of Pennsylvania that includes parts of Philadelphia he is also a member
of the Democratic Social of America, Representative, you're not Congressman yet, Representative,
thank you for being here this morning, we appreciate it.
So I'm curious, and part of the reason why we wanted to have someone like you here, given
that you are the Democratic nominee, but also a member of the DSA, what is a voter getting
from a Democrat and a member of the DSA like you that they aren't necessarily getting from
a Democrat like Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, who we had on earlier.
That's a great question. I listened to that segment and it seems like we have a lot in
common. We're against corruption. We want to fight for working people. We want, we believe
that health care is a human right. These are things that we want to increase wages. I support
a living wage for all. So I think we have a lot more in common than people would think.
But what he says is that socialism is a failed experiment.
What's your response to that?
He cooked here, by the way.
Well, I imagine he supports social security.
In a purely capitalistic free market system,
we would have no social security.
We would have no Medicare.
We would have no Medicaid.
We would have no public education.
We would have no interstate highway system.
We would not have firefighters.
These things are things that are brought to us
by different views that have molded us
into the nation we are today.
It's not one thing.
This is not a purely capitalistic society.
There is capitalism in China, in Finland, everywhere.
Like this is something that we have to understand
is a mixture and it is an evolution.
Pure capitalism has never worked.
Communism is not something that we've seen effectively work.
This part was really interesting, he doesn't say communism has never worked, he says communism is not something that we've seen effectively work, leaving the door open.
That's my goat that's my goat do not point that out you're gonna get clipped
He's still disavows it which sucks dude dude come on dude it's like illegal to be a communist in
this country and you're fucking complaining about this shit.
What are we doing to make sure that we are moving in the right direction though, that
we are transforming this nation so that it can take care of.
Is that even true though?
Like what was not effective about the USSR?
I mean, there are plenty of fucking excesses, plenty of failures, deep state induced paranoia.
Like you have to be a little bit more balanced about this stuff.
Okay.
just, I don't know, I'm not like Mr. It was a degenerated worker state or anything, but like
yeah, there's definitely, it's okay, it's okay to talk about it. I think like,
I think it's important to acknowledge what some of the failures of collectivization were,
for, especially given the limitations at the time.
I personally think that with the new technology that we have now, we can overcome those limitations.
We can overcome those problems.
There are some people who I do think take a very, like they have weird nostalgia, which
is I guess understandable because it was a wild attempt and it dramatically improved
people's living circumstances at the time.
Like unbelievably, unbelievably so.
I mean, it went from a agrarian, peasant-backed potato farming society with pogroms happening
with regular frequency to one in a manner of decades into an industrial powerhouse that
not only fucking defeated the Nazis, but then after losing tens of millions of young men
men and women was able to defeat the United States in the fucking space race, like that
is exceptional, okay?
That is remarkable.
That is a remarkable achievement.
A remarkable achievement.
But also, there were failures along the way.
And I don't even necessarily agree with the Chinese attitude on this, because the Chinese
attitude is both China and the USSR marks as Leninist formations, right?
The Chinese attitude on this is that the dissolution of the USSR did not start in the 90s, it actually
started in the destalinization.
I don't know if I necessarily agree with that.
I don't think that was the case, but that is the, you know, broad Chinese analysis on
this.
I'm not going to lie, China might have cooked with that.
I mean, look, that's one of the reasons why they hold on to Mao's legacy.
That's definitely one of the reasons, like it's a, it's a cultural icon, a central figure
that you can whip up support around. I mean, that's what Deng Xiaoping did in his great
period of liberalization. On the one hand, marketization was taking place as a radical
experiment. On the other hand, it was really beefing up Mao's support, like uniting the
people around a common cause, a common central figure.
So let's be real, I think that that definitely you are getting clipped again.
I mean, what, anytime I talk about Chinese history, I'm gonna have to fucking worry about
people clipping me.
What do you want me to say?
I am not Chinese.
I am not a malice.
I'm just explaining how, how, you know, Chinese governance operates.
It's 100% true even without saying stalling good, stalling bad.
The idea of throwing away the last 30 years of your history is insane.
Xi Jinping calls it historical nihilism.
If you do stuff like that, it's no wonder the leaders would abandon socialism entirely.
Yeah.
Xi calls it historical nihilism and the party abandoned the legacy of Lenin and Stalin, which
I agree top-sheet.
No, that's why I said it's the Chinese assessment.
The Chinese assessment was that it was, yes, abandoning the Stalin and the period of de-stalinization is why the USSR inevitably collapsed.
I think it's perhaps a little bit too idealistic and not very materialist.
But then again, as far as my worries about modern China, about the PRC, I would go so
far as to say like their galvanizing force is traditional Chinese culture and also Chinese
nationalism to a certain degree, and I worry about that as well, a little bit, but what
can I say? I'm a fucking petite bourgeois American living in the heart of empire, which
which is, you know, I mean, they're doing something.
Important occasions or not, do you really need to keep the portrait of Stalin?
We think Stalin's contribution to the revolution is much more important than the mistakes he
made.
To use the Chinese way, the score for Stalin would be 30 to, yeah, I've read this before,
30% to 70%, 30 for his errors, 74 his merits.
Furthermore, Chairman Mao agreed with me on the question of Stalin's score.
And after the 20th Congress of the CPSU, members of the Communist Party of China expressed
a very clear judgment of Stalin.
We said that we would always continue to consider his writings as classic works of the international
communist movement.
Stalin made mistakes, even where the Chinese Revolution was concerned.
For example, after World War II, he didn't want us to sever ties with the Kuomintang
or begin the War of Liberation.
This is true.
was big into. I think that flip literally happened because of the internal conflict with Trotsky.
If I remember correctly, the initial Stalin was unbelievably pragmatic and maybe even a little
bit too restrained, especially after World War II, where he just straight up was like, no,
You have to you don't have the numbers you have to fucking align with the KMT
You have to align with the KMT at a time with the KMT
We're just like nationalistic butchers at this point and the KMT left was
Losing its grip of power and influence within the party and they were just becoming this reactionary nationalist force
Anyway Stalin was against it initially, but
You don't want us to sever ties with Kuomintang and begin the war of liberation
But even this does not cloud our judgment with him and Khrushchev Khrushchev
What good is Khrushchev ever done? He denounced Stalin and you see that as a good thing not good great for God's sake
Stalin killed more people than the Cultural Revolution ever did. I'm not I'm not at all sure of that not at all
And anyway, the two things cannot be compared in short anyway, you prefer Stalin the Khrushchev
I just told you that the Chinese people would never do to Chairman Mao would Khrushchev did this Stalin
What if I told you that in the West they call you the Chinese Khrushchev? He laughs listen
They can call me anything they like in the West, but I know Khrushchev well
I dealt with him personally for 10 years and I can assure you that comparing me to Khrushchev is insulting
Listen, there were times when Khrushchev was a lion too.
Fair is fair.
And there were times when Dang wasn't so smart about his foreign policy, okay?
I'm just saying.
got their fucking flaws. Okay.
Lion cub maybe.
Everyone how is it that we have our first trillionaire and we still have veterans who
are unhoused.
You know our news poll out this morning shows that most Democrats have a positive view of
socialism but among all Americans overall just 35% do. You've made the argument here
so far. But I'm curious, what do you do to try to win over skeptics, the two-thirds of the country?
You just pissed off the altars in the chat? No, I don't think altars give a shit. No.
What are you talking about? Actual existing socialism and joyers,
they don't, I don't think they give a shit. They don't have a problem with Khrushchev.
only in China do they have this level of continued loyalty to Stalin. I think Western Marxist
Leninists, they like Stalin, many of them like Stalin, I don't think any of them actually take
issue with Khrushchev, even if they disagree with de-stalinization. Who doesn't think this is a good
What did I do?
Well I wasn't running for socialism, I was running for the people of the Third Congressional
District who want to fight her.
And that's something that is more important than the labels that are used in polls because
the poll didn't define socialism, the poll didn't define capitalism, the poll didn't
define free market system or free enterprise, it didn't do this.
pulled on how people responded to labels that have been put into the ether
without any context, historical, any analysis, and I think once you define
these things people can make more informed decisions. You are running in
what is the most democratic district in America, like 40 plus 40 percent
democratic advantage, so it's perhaps understandable or that helps explain how
how a socialist backed candidate can emerge. But there are others in the Democratic Party
writ large. No, I have to push back. Why is that?
I got to push back. You can't conflate Democratic performance index with people who support
a Democratic socialist. I ran for months long before anyone mentioned that I was a member
of the Democratic Socialists of America. I didn't run for socialism. I ran for the people.
Just because people are more likely to vote for Democrats does not mean that they are
inherently more inclined to support this ideology or the other.
It just showed that in my district, in my race for the Democratic primary, that I came
out 14 points ahead in a four-person race because I was a fighter and I talked about
issues that mattered and socialism did not come up.
Okay.
Actually our poll this morning shows that Democratic voters overall are looking for fighters or
people who are certainly promising to do so.
I do want to play, however, something that former Ambassador, former Chicago Mayor,
Rahm Emanuel said this morning on Sunday morning in conversation with our colleague,
Robert Costa, regarding the progressive versus rest of the party sort of split or discussion
that y'all are having.
Take a listen to what he said.
This again, I'm about flipping red districts to blue.
I'm not about taking blue districts and making them midnight blue.
You want to see a raise in the minimum wage?
Winning over democratic districts is not the way to get it there.
You got to win Republican districts.
What's your response to the mayor's strategic?
It's so funny that Rahm Emanuel says this when he's like single-handedly responsible
for Obama losing so many districts.
Democrat doesn't fucking matter like what do you mean? Oh, we got a we got a win
Republican districts too. It's like, okay, do you know how to do that? No, the fuck
do you mean? It's always funny when like like near
a tandem or people that worked on the Kamala campaign will be like, oh, we know
how to win. People that worked on the Kamala campaign saying like, erm, you
people don't know how to win a purple state. It's like, okay, well, neither do
you? Fuck are you talking about? Neither do you. You lost every swing state. What are
you talking about? That's kind of how we arrived at this mess. We listened to you. Jonathan
Shate wrote extensively about how awesome Kamala centrism was and look where that brought us
What the hell
It's enough enough let us cook
Let's try something different Jesus fucking Christ a garglet there
God damn 40 years of this nonsense dude 40 years of hemorrhaging support from the working class
40 years of hemorrhaging support from the working class
Flipping previous historic blue districts red over and over again all up and down the countryside
If these motherfuckers are still telling us like oh, well, these are red. These are red states
These are red districts is like it wasn't that wasn't the case
Shit that wasn't the case 20 years ago
Yeah, pass the controller. Enough. Enough. You've played too much.
Um, I think listening to folks who have been institutionalists and corporate dems is probably
the wrong thing to do when what your own poll shows is that there's an exhaustion.
There is anger at centrists and institutionalists and this anti-establishment moment means that we want bold things that are not left or right, but what are the things that are going to move people forward?
And hey, take me to Kentucky. I think I can make that case pretty strongly. And as someone who has five generations in Kentucky, I think this is something that transcends blue districts.
Okay. On the issue of institutionalists in the party, I'm curious, are you someone who
would vote for Hakeem Jeffries to be Speaker? Should Democrats take?
Yeah, the problem with America's education system is that we've given up on 50% of our
kids by third grade. After 10 years, Chicago school closings have left big holes and promises
unkempt. Ramamé literally overstepped the largest closure of public schools in American
history.
Majority next January?
He's from Kentucky.
Chris Rapp is originally from Kentucky.
Sorry about that.
He hasn't asked me, but I can tell you this, he's not going to run unless we secure the
new majority, which is what I'm focusing on.
I'm focusing on making sure we have good progressive candidates who are winning in these primaries
and who will win on November 3rd.
when we get a new democratic majority i would love to have that conversation
with them
uh... person to person we have not yet met
now look i know you're a democratic candidate
for congress
you are however member of the dsa and their opponents of that movement
who point to the failed socialist governments in latin america is proof
that socially known always work
and the ds a just in the last few days for the statement commemorating the
one hundred why what are you gonna do you get a fucking bomb and and
facilitate coup d'etats
in Pennsylvania, is that what we're gonna do? Well, 1985, that is kind of, you know, there
is a precedent there for the American militarized police force bombing entire city blocks in
Pennsylvania. So I probably shouldn't be giving the government any ideas here, especially
considering that the Trump administration has been weaponizing ICE and trying to occupy
cities. But it's just the comparison is so funny. It's like, well, you know, famously,
these attempts were abject failures. Oh, like in Chile, the original 9-11, abject failure
is born out of the American desire to thwart Chilean democracy. How dare they democratically
vote for a socialist. How dare they? We'll show them.
Birthday of Fidel Castro, which says in part he was an organizer, a fighter, and endures
as a stalwart symbol of anti-imperialist struggle and self-determination for the-
Like, what is this? What is this? It's true. It's objectively true. It is objectively true.
I'm sick and tired of Americans and media just being like, Fidel Castro sucks. He was
butcher he was a murderer shut the fuck up god damn dude Fidel Fidel Castro and
Che Guevara were lions okay they were lions I'm sorry that you don't have the
adequate history lesson to understand that and as an American you don't want
to fucking pull your head out of your ass and understand why the rest of the
planet refers to Fidel Castro and Che Guevara as very differently than we do
here. It is so delusional. It's so ridiculous. I just, oh God, this ship makes me so mad.
Yes, these were revolutionary heroes, okay? Global South. You agree with that sentiment?
And does it concern you that this type of celebration of Fidel Castro is what might
validate people's concerns with the DSA?
I'm not concerned with how people will construe this organization.
I'm interested in finding what we have in common so we can move this country forward
based on bold policies which that poll suggests people are wanting irrespective of political
ideology or generation.
The other thing I want to mention too is, and this is something that I hear centrist
establishment players talk about is, well, if we want to reach these people who are outside of,
you know, blue districts, how about we actually focus on those folks who live in highly populated
blue districts who don't show up? Because bro, bro, bro, bro, bro, bro. They fucking destroyed
Bernie Sanders in his 2020 run. Okay. This is one of those things that they're just going to
continue doing. I remember I was there. Okay. Bernie Sanders, they were like, oh, well,
don't you think Cuba is an authoritarian nightmare? Blah, blah, blah. Like, why are you pro-Fedal
Castro? And Bernie was like, look, I think it's unfair. He did the same classic thing where he
was like, oh, authoritarianism. Cuba's authoritarianism shouldn't tar and feather like Fidel's legacy
as far as like all of the incredible things he did for Cuban literacy and Cuban prosperity.
That's something that he said, and the media never let it go. The media never fucking let
it go. They went crazy. Okay. Here it is. Here it is. Here it is. Look at this look.
Sanders defended archival comments from the 1980s asking whether Castro's rollout of widespread
education and healthcare was inherently bad just because Castro implemented it. The condemnation,
He explicitly acknowledged and condemned the authoritarian nature of the Cuban regime,
the imprisonment of dissidents and human rights abuses, political protests from both parties,
particularly Cuban American lawmakers of Florida, Democrats swiftly criticized him for praising
a dictator's social policies rather than offering unambiguous condemnation.
It was unfair to simply say everything is bad about Fidel Castro's legacy,
pointing to his massive 1960s literacy and healthcare programs.
Yes, AI Overview, I'm pro AI now, okay?
Yeah, Bernie Sanders defends comments on the Cuban Revolution.
You know the truth is the truth, he says during his count all.
the debate stage where you got booed for saying that and then respond to me, what are we booing
reading programs now? Yeah. Yeah. The problem is we were, and we still are there kind of
and it sucks. And so much, so much of the conversation, so much of the conversation in the United States
of America has to dance around the truth because of what the, the, the normies think. Like
We've been propagandized, we've been brainwashed into believing that, um,
you know, Castro was an evil villain and so was Che Guevara.
And obviously it's been a long time since these figures have existed in the
American consciousness, which is part of the reason why the, the, uh,
capacity to do, especially when people are just like hitting any attempt at
hagiography with, with unbelievable amounts of propaganda.
Not even what the normies think, what the normies think, the normies think, no, I don't.
I think largely, Pito Castro and Chigavara, when they were alive, were far more beloved
figures in the United States of America than after their demise.
Because when they were alive, it was like impossible to deal with their aura, okay?
Yeah, they were so fucking cool.
Well, I guess, among some Americans, specifically the Americans engaging in the revolutionary
civil rights struggle in the United States of America, they held a very special place
for Fidel Castro and Che Guevara.
Even this corpse at the reorientist position, what is this?
Crime, is it a 150 year low?
That is definitely.
Is James Carville just like talking about how he's a part of the Hassan Piper, he's
a Hassan Piper Democrat.
Is James Carville on the Jesse Water Show defending Medicare for all?
the fuck is happening next week James Garble. I'm a Hassan Pekka Democrat from start from
top to bottom. Everybody knows I've always been a Hassan Pekka Democrat is his party
and I'm a part of it.
Good news, we could both be happy about it, so these other guys, they want to take away
my doctor.
James, I love my doctor.
I see my doctor all the time.
I have a lot of issues, physical, emotional, mental, and they want Medicare for all.
You know what that means.
You know what that means, right?
I know exactly what it means.
If I was starting the system over, honestly,
I would start with Medicare for all.
You would you not start?
Oh, wow, beast mode, dude.
Starting over.
So I think at the end of the day,
when people think about it,
it's not gonna be a very good idea.
But the idea that's...
God damn it, he still has the shit on it.
He's like, it's a good idea.
And I, I'm a centrist Democrat, Chessie. And I hate good ideas.
I oppose good ideas, helping people. I think no,
dead of dream hell no, we're all out of good ideas.
What's the same hell was paid with good intentions?
Nobody thinks we should have some version of universal coverage in this country.
is in line with most advanced Western governments around the world.
I mean, people, I mean, I don't think...
It's not perfect.
It's a blow up the system and spend almost $4 trillion a year on it.
I mean, it just seems like suicide.
He...
He's a guy from Michigan to kiss this guy's ring.
This guy Abdul, who calls you names, Carville.
He hates you.
So what?
They don't like me, I don't dislike them.
He's a guy I was for Haley Stevens, but all the people that I see out there running off
often Andy Beshear and Shapiro and Wes and everybody else, there's so much talent in
this party.
People are going to be blown away after we get past 26 and start running and the people
that we're talking about are not going to do anything.
Okay.
Ossoff, Beshear, no one knows these guys.
These guys are boring guys.
you know, that's the fucking own waters. And big way party, they want to abolish police.
New York is a low crime jurisdiction. You don't want to, you don't want to give the
president any credit for that. No, it started going down before
Ossoff's near attendance, 20-28 pick.
Time to screw your head on straight.
Guys, oh my God, oh my God.
I just said he's a fucking liberal sloppulist,
a liberal populist, and he's good on comms.
And I think he could be a unique candidate
if he repositioned some of his stances
and you guys never let me live it down.
Jesus Christ, dude.
When did I say John Ossoff is my fucking favorite pick?
I've never said that Jesus Christ
bro you just said he was your goat that's my goat yeah John awesome I love
him. You said I made it up in my head. Okay, well, I can't do anything about that.
Why don't you ever push for Shama Savant?
What?
Why don't you ever talk about Shama Savant?
Her election is over.
What do you mean push for?
What can I do at this point?
Yeah, this guy is awesome.
Republican because of the son piker and I feel sick to my stomach for what he just
first time ever.
Well, the liberals are jumping ship because of the son piker.
Yeah.
Oh fuckers, we're hanging out with Vivek, hanging out with DeSantis.
I guess, he too is a Ron DeSantis Democrat.
Oh no, what are we gonna do?
But for the first time ever, I'm going to-
Wait, is this where they learn how to clip you? What is this?
But first, she was a University Honor student who devoted her life to kids.
Until the night of grossly overweight perverts named Homer Simpson
gave her a trash course in depravity.
Baby sitter and the beast!
Aw, crap!
Somebody had to take the baby sitter home, and I noticed she was sitting on her to where he can.
I grab her to where he can.
Oh, just thinking about her can, I just wish I had her to where she can.
So, Mr. Simpson, you admit you grabbed her can.
What do you have to say in your defense?
Mr. Simpson, your assailants will only incriminate you further.
No, Mr. Simpson, don't take your anger out on me! Get back! Get back!
I mean literally yeah house at this committee opens investigation into representative Jimmy
gum is over sexual misconduct allegations.
Here's a graphic that dramatically tells the story of rising Islamophobia among Republicans.
72% of Republicans now say they won't vote for a Muslim presidential candidate even if
they agree with their general positions a significant rise in the past two years.
Here's the trend on LGBTQ rights, it seems like, while the rest of the country is steadily
becoming broadly more socially liberal and tolerant the GOP is actually going backwards.
It's very cool that the Democrats are leaning into this mania as well by the way.
Very cool.
Very nice.
You know?
Anyway.
You know?
You know?
You know?
Assuming that you agree with the general positions of the presidential candidates on issues that
are important to you, would you vote for that candidate if he or she were among those that
voted no for Muslim, 36% of all respondents voted no, 22% of Democrats voted no. By the
way, atheists is so awesome because Republicans also fucking hate atheists almost to the same
degree that they hate Muslims and it's really funny. It's really funny because
Donald Trump is an atheist. Okay. That's hilarious to me that
no, it's not 22% of Democrats that said no is 22% of people who said no are Democrats. Oh, sorry.
new pulses outside is down the post no that's not true
it's a old poll and a new poll came out showing Abdul up but it doesn't matter
the media is not covering it because they want to set that narrative that
Abdul is doing poorly because he's too radical they want to bully him
yeah
Anyway, that's all I got for today folks. I'm tired. I love you guys, and I will see you
tomorrow anyway mentioned yeah it's any way time but
starting off the guys I'll see you tomorrow okay
