I condemn Hassan Piker.
I disavow Hassan Piker.
He is scandalizing, he is scandalizing.
what's going on everybody I hope everyone's having a fantastic evening afternoon pre noon
no matter where you are in the world, I'm a son piker and this is Austin I'm
broadcast coming to you live, from sunny California, Los Angeles it's 83
degrees and sunny here in Los Angeles, California ladies and gentlemen that was
I condemn son piker by rabid fusion this is the louder mix even though the
louder mix is still not loud enough but I'm a son piker I'm live I'm alive I took
the day off because I had to, I'll talk about that. I'll talk about the reasons as to why
I had to take the day off.
Handsuit is back. Handsuit is back and better than ever. Actively judging you by your enemies,
you said, okay, nice. Hell yeah. That's what I'm talking about also. The soundboard is
back as well. We'll talk about Comrade Melania, don't worry. Wait, that YouTube short isn't
hitting a 404. Is after Labor Day, sub with the white brother? I do what I want. In any
case, folks, folks, folks, we're live. We're live is Saturday. There's lots to talk about
lots going on in the universe. And this is part of the broadcast where I tell you about my personal
news. It is September 26, 2026. I cannot believe how fast this year has gone by. Obviously the most
important thing that we have to cover today is not the Iranian MOU, the Trump administration's
inability to address the demands being made. It's going to be a discovery
a Turkish discovery. A discovery that I think is is a true game changer.
That's right ladies and gentlemen in Istanbul they found a 2x pimpy 2x vape cat.
just wanted to start with the most important the most important that's a
built-ass cat that's a cat with aura get it out of the way shit looks like a
shiny Pokemon he looks like a he looks like one of those two ex pimpy mutated
dogs that are constantly demanding death, except this cat feels comfortable in its skin.
He feels comfortable in his skin where he's like, death.
I stare down the barrel of death and it's nothing to me.
Chatter, thank you for the blast offs. There's nothing.
Chatter, thank you for the blast off memes that you sent me.
seems to me like there is nothing on that link you sent. I guess that's your
contribution. That's cool. Get pranked, Hasan. Get pranked. Okay, so any case, in
any case, in any case, ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, folks, we
are live. We are live. There's a lot of talk about the personal news out of the
way first. So I did the speech in Ithaca. Okay, I did the speech in Ithaca. It was wonderful.
There wasn't any like significant pushback or anything. I feel like in a lot of these
instances, the speech itself is, it turns out much smoother than the drama leading up
to the speech, right? And I went to bed thinking that I would go to sleep early, wake up early,
travel back to LA, be able to live broadcast on Friday morning. The problem is God had other
plans. We went to the Ithaca airport in the morning around 4am. Airport is one of those like
it reminded me of an airport of like, it reminded me of the Cuban airport or the airport in Tahiti
or like a place. It reminded me of an airport of like, I would say, a smaller country, right?
It wasn't like in a state of disrepair anything they had all the latest tools
They had the latest gear and everything, but it was just like a much friendlier airport in general
You had like three lovely ladies behind the counter
And I think it's a it's an airport were only Delta and United fly out of anyway
So they basically swap between Delta and United like the ladies that work there behind the counter were basically
doing a processing for all of the airports, which I thought was really funny, is they
were all standing behind the the United counter and I walk up. I'm like, I have a delta thing.
Is there anyone here? And they're like, Oh, no, it's me. But it was like, you know, unlike
movies, you'll see like they the cash, the cash register, like the person behind the
cash register cash register goes down and then pops up from the other side. They literally
did that. They did that to me. But it was cool. It was cool. But
there was also a lot of drama. Okay. The Wait, what? I got
canceled, UT is canceled. Oh, no, it's not canceled. What do you mean? No, they had to
swap it again, they had to swap the venue again, we've done like multiple venue or swaps.
If it's not canceled, this is not going to be as a big, not going to have the same
accommodations. Unfortunately, we'll cover that stuff in a second.
But basically, guys, as I was saying.
So here it is.
Let's continue.
Let's continue.
Where was I?
What was I talking about?
Oh, we'll get to all that and more.
Oh, so yeah, I get in, I go through the security
and then I get a text message, your flight,
which my flight plan is Ithaca, small airport to JFK,
big airport, rapid transfer, only an hour in between,
only an hour window in between to get off the plane,
on the next plan and then be out to Los Angeles, right? So that's the plan. We go through the
security. We're hungry. We're like trying to use the vending machines. They are used to apparently
be a cafe inside of the airport, but the, it was run by a family and they decided to no longer run
it. So the cafe's still there. It looks modern. It has everything in it. It's just, there's no one
one, uh, working behind it, right?
Behind the counter.
It's fine.
We get some stuff from the vending machines.
And then I get a text message saying like, oh, your flight has been pushed back by an hour.
I'm like, uh-oh.
And then I get another text message and I found out that there's no way for me to
make my transfer flight.
There's no way for me to make my transfer flight.
Right.
So we're panicking, we're trying to find a new flight out, the second flight out, and
I haven't slept yet, so I'm like, how the fuck am I going to make this work?
And I was like, should I stay in New York for one extra day and then come the next day?
But I had a bunch of stuff that I had to do here in Los Angeles, right?
Like I have all the stuff that I need to do off stream as well, and I want to be able
to stream.
So I was like, fuck it, we'll go on, we'll, we'll get in a car from Ithaca and drive
to JFK to try to make it to the flight.
So I asked the counter lady, I was like, can I take my bags back?
I checked them in and because again, small airport, they allowed me, right?
Cause they said there were two bird strikes that happened.
Apparently there's a lot of bats bats in Ithaca and both of the planes and they were coming
in got struck by birds so they had to call in the crew from JFK to drive up
from JFK to check the technicians at the check the planes so I was like there's
no way this plane is taking flight here like there's no shot I got to take my
chances here's out I'm a big city elitist of course I thought I could get
like an Uber, it would be a lot and it would cost a grip, cost a penny. I could just refund
my flight and then pay for the Uber. But no, no one in Ithaca is willing to make that
trek down the New York City. But now my bag, my checked in luggage is off the plane. And
Now I'm coming to the conclusion that I cannot leave Ithaca.
I'm stuck.
Do I go back to the hotel, stream from the hotel?
What am I supposed to do?
It's a four hour drive.
Okay.
It's a four hour drive from Ithaca, New York to New York, New York.
I go up to the wonderful lady behind the counter and I say, I'm so sorry it took my, uh,
Uh, luggage out, but I think I'm going to need to get back on this plane.
She says, did you cancel your tickets?
I say, no, she say, she says, well, if you haven't canceled your tickets,
you're in luck.
Same, same luggage handler guy comes back out, takes the, uh, takes the luggage,
puts it back on the plane.
They were unbelievably kind and unbelievably gracious to me.
Renna car.
No, the Renna car wasn't also available at the time.
Okay, like this is a very tiny airport. It's a very tiny local airport
But basically
There's a mom and pop airport
Opposite of Odysseus
Not trying to get to Ithaca, but instead leave Ithaca at all costs I
Get on the plane lo and behold
I land the other transfer flight that I was supposed to get on
The other transfer flight that I was supposed to get on had been pushed back. I'm like, oh god damn it
The flight was delayed. I could have made it
Turns out the flight that I chose this the other flight that I took instead
flew out of JFK before
The flight that it was originally supposed to fly in because it got pushed back and pushed back and pushed back until it was past
the second flight that I had transferred to. So, Kismet. But of course, by that
time, by the time I, you know, got back home, it was 3.30 or 3 p.m., too late to
stream, and therefore the stream was cooked. But having said that, I really
should have stayed in New York because one, I have a crazy
interview option lined up potentially working on it. And
not only that, but also not only that. But also, oh, the
Financial Times article came out today, I guess. Wait, hold on.
I should have done the Hague group. My boys over at Progressive International put together a Hague group with like human rights lawyers and envoys and diplomats and they did a Hague group for Israel's genocide and it would have been sick.
It would have been dope to stay behind for that and to film that event
And so yeah, there's a lot there's a lot of stuff that happened in the background, but
Yeah, God forbid you don't stream one day all hell breaks loose you already know what stuff you already know what it is
They look like each type of transgender I saw this it is real this is
We've talked about how a lot of Republicans are gay in the closet, but what we haven't discussed is the eggs, you know?
And I don't know what that does. I don't know if that's like a part of the psyche, the psychology, but this is a T for T couple, like straight up.
It's MTF and FTM. T4T. Okay? Like, straight up, what do you, what do you say?
We don't claim them, chat?
Huge drama on Turkish Twitter. I covered this a little bit. I talked to us a little bit.
The hearts of iron fours being review bombed on steam after controversy on the official games discord. Yeah, I know. I mean, it is ridiculous.
The drama started when a moderator banned a church play to remove an altitude profile picture. Like,
there was this process by leaving negative reviews in the game now is over 9,000.
Like, I think this is there's exceptions to this of like who you get to do this to and who you don't get to do this to obviously Hitler and like, you know, Nazis.
It makes sense for you not to, uh, you know, not to allow that kind of PFP, but like altitude is, you know,
Like, they wouldn't, they would never allow, they would never do this to like someone with
a Benghiri on avatar, you know what I mean?
Tim Poole is so trans-masc coded other than the masculinity.
Yeah.
No, no, they're each in like the beginning stages, like, don't, I mean, it's not, it's
not beginning stage, but like it's just Trump. And it is now for the White House.
Samoan Sanders says he still watches and she stands by her.
Her son, Piker interview.
Wait, she did an interview about our interview.
That's crazy.
Is being Yuri and bad the found like one of the founders was I mean of Israel. Yeah, not great
Hey, yeah, who bamboozled Tina Kitten
I don't know
What's the fuck what's happening? Oh
Oh, that's so funny. It's the America deserved 9 11 quote to that's so fucking awesome. That's
hilarious. Anyway, let's blast off. Let's blast off, folks. Let's blast off. Let's get it twisted.
We're live. We're alive. You already know what it is. We're back at home base. I'll be it for a
brief moment potentially. But we're here and some of you are queer. You're not the only one who said it anymore.
All right. I will also say that. You know, sometimes you you say something.
Sometimes you say something on the broadcast and then it gets, you know, it gets critically
panned on the broadcast by the exact people that you are lightly criticizing, right?
And I feel like you should be normal and it's good to be normal and be cool and try to like
appeal to the masses.
clip hit every that clip hit the timelines like crack cocaine under Ronald Reagan in black neighborhoods.
Like it's just like it almost was delivered specifically to the doors of every single individual
that perhaps, you know, this motherfucker.
What is this Jason's reaction was so crazy. You see it?
it. Yeah, I saw it. I was in his chat. Anyway, we blasted off. Hold on. The clip didn't drop.
It was deployed. Yeah. Do you ever feel like you say something and then the target audience
doesn't actually hear you at all? The target audience doesn't actually hear what you want,
what you're trying to say and instead follows along with
with what they perceive is wrong with that statement.
Like my clip was literally about like, Hey, in order to
organize, we have to be more normal.
We have to be better.
We have to just like be more appealing and virtually every
single person that watched the clip, virtually every single
parts that watch a clip on Twitter was like, I'm never going to be normal.
You fucking kill yourself. You know, I'm going to shoot you with a gun.
Actually, you have betrayed the transgender is you have betrayed the disabled.
And then there were also a lot of people who, who looked at what I was saying
there and were like, Oh, he, this is about, you know, people who are anti
Zionists. I was like, no, actually, not at all. It's about none of this.
Right.
It's unironically about none of the things that you think it is, but it is very funny
that you consider this to be a betrayal of socialist principles when it's not.
You already know this person is in the chat.
When it comes to men, what's a deal breaker?
If he's a Republican.
If he's a Republican.
So you're not, you're not rocking with any of the Democrats.
No, no.
Honestly, not even Democrats.
Wait, what's up? What are you rockin'?
Nice.
When it comes to men, what's a deal breaker?
If these are Republicans.
If these are Republicans.
That's what I'm talking about, dude. Hell yeah.
I think there should be a new word than normal because there are a lot of sex who take normals
and insults. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. You shouldn't take normal as an insult. That's the
problem. Yes, if you think when I say, hey, guys, just be normal, you you literally personally
feel like I'm attacking you, you unironically are the person who should internalize that
message better than everybody else. You are directly who I'm talking to. Okay.
weird is better normal as able as fuck you okay but that's what i'm saying no when i say not weird
people still get mad at that there are some people who wear this shit on their sleeves like being
unagreeable is the only way to maintain some kind of moral purity that's not how this works
Okay, that's not how this works at all. I'm not saying betray your values. I'm not saying we're gonna write off like
You know trans people queer people
Disabled people that's ridiculous. I've never done that and I will never do that, right?
But also a big part of be normal is
To have you know regular
disagreements, but allow that discourse to take place without treating minor disagreements
among comrades as though these are, you know, eugenicists that want to assassinate you with
a gun, right? Like when you say stuff like that, others people on the outside who might
be in the margins see it and go, ooh, what the fuck? I don't know if I want to be a
part of this movement. I have yet to figure out what the best possible way to communicate this is
without, because I really, really want people in our community and broadly people on the left to
just be like less, less abrasive, less aggressive when talking to potential future allies.
you know and it's tough it's tough because it like I I also understand it I
also understand being constantly under attack right you're constantly on edge
you just assume every new interaction is probably going to is is probably going
to once again put you in a shitty mode or attack you you don't have you don't
to have to constantly justify your existence, which is, I understand that, and that's precisely
the reason why this is like a relatively safe space for learning, right?
But it's not an entirely safe space, not like a full blown safe space, right? Because there's,
you know, there's going to be people with differing perspectives and opinions, right?
So, it's just, I just wish that people would, the exact people that took offense to the
be normal, are I think are the exact people who should.
Like if you're on the, if you're to my left, don't immediately assume that someone is a
a sheepdog. You know, sheepdog for the Democrats betraying the revolutionary cause. All this
stuff. If you are like, this is what I mean. This is what I mean. Look, the idea of the
very existence of a normal is one of the most violent constructs power wields, right? It's
just anarchists, I think. He fell for it again. Award. Everyone is accepted. The logic of
organizing is equal to logic of getting customers or fans normal you people are fascists
stop with the baby gloves please no it's i do need to use the baby gloves
okay i mean this is the baby gloves i just said be normal
what is this
This reminds me of saying like men are trash if you get offended by that and I think you have to do a little self-reflection.
No, it's not the same because these are people who are morally on the correct side of the argument.
It's just that they're maybe making the Lamal Bro no-shot getting any of them on board.
I mean, there are plenty of people who I think have softened their edges in this community
Just as there are people here
That previously used to be reactionary
Pivi previously used to have right-wing opinions that no longer hold them
There are definitely people who are way more hyper woke during woke one that have softened their edges in the way that they communicate with others
Right. There's a delicate balance that we strike in here. And I think there are plenty
There are plenty who find that perfect golden mean
in terms of how they communicate their values without abandoning their principles.
They're just deliberately misunderstanding you because they don't like you. That's not true.
That's not true. Some people might be doing that, but that's not true, broadly speaking.
Don't be annoying conveys the same idea without getting trapped in language that some perceive
as ableist. Yeah, that's the problem. I'm doing that deliberately because normal is
is a thing that ironically enough, the broadest base of Americans understand. Do you see
what I mean? Like it's a little bit, it's not, it's not ableist at all to say like, you know,
be normal. When I say that, I don't mean like, you know, don't be queer, don't be disabled,
that's insane, right? Yeah, normal is a relative concept.
stop scaring the hoes. Some of y'all are scaring the hoes. It's fine though.
Anyway, I just briefly started off with this, you know, it's like, it's like
housekeeping, you know, not the best, not the most exciting thing, but, but yeah.
I mean, the greatest example is the, is the, this account, the ace account, right?
like that. That is the greatest example of just like peak not being normal. Like wearing it on
your sleeve and that you are super aggressive, super contentious with every single person,
every moment of every day is another opportunity to get into a battle with like people who are
probably closest to you ideologically. And you also do a bunch of crazy stuff, you know, like a
secularized hijab accessory, right? Or she's like a, like an Irish nationalist, weirdly enough.
You know, that's like, there's, or they are sorry. Um,
uh, and, and, you know,
she's, it's fine. I mean, you're gonna, I, I love this person for the record.
I love this person. I think this person is brilliant, right? I think this person is
interesting. I think this person is brilliant. I don't want them to stop posting. I love the
way they post. And I mean that. I mean that sincerely, right? I love the way they post.
I think it's it's hilarious. It's awesome. It's brilliant. It's creative
But also at the same time, you know, there are a lot of people who behave like this
That then also want to be the center of of every conversation in spaces where the left congregate and
Unfortunately when you do that, you know, there are gonna be a lot of people who are like, what the fuck like we can't be
spending too much time, right? We can't be spending too much time engaging in like
record behavior because it turns a conversation away from like whatever
productive vehicle for organizing to just like constantly having to address the
narcissist in the room using a mandatory language. They're like always trying to
center themselves rather than center the issues and this is not good yeah be
normal as able as reading the room is able is scaring the hoses misogynist
and cultural appropriation I am not off-putting
read my trans logs please
This one is a banger at NASA, Rook Isaacman Pluto should still be called a planet even though it's a dwarf planet because people with dwarfism are still people. Oh my God, it did someone write this.
They are the greatest poster. I think they are the greatest poster.
What is this dog they really got you here? What is this breast-bred-the-destiny-sub-on-suicide watch right now?
Non-binary long-covered radical communist hijabi.
They're also incredibly racist.
is? I'm Donnie Piker and else I add. DSA excels at producing these white privileged ethnically
savanna. What the fuck is a savanna? Hey, yo, what is savanna? What does that even mean?
Is it Southwest Asian North African? Why, why not menna? Southwest Asian North Africa,
Why not MENA? Just say MENA. Is MENA not enough?
When did this turn into... Wait, what?
This is the other thing.
This is the other thing. There's always like something new.
These guys just sit around and cook up new ways of referring to things.
And then if you haven't downloaded the new talking points
and the new categorization, you're just fucked. You're like a fascist.
As someone from the region, as someone from the region, you know, MENA is fine.
I'm not going to make a big deal about Savannah, but MENA is Middle East, which is weird colonial
language.
I just, who cares?
This is like, now I feel like this is the, the Eskimo Inuit, uh, conversation or, or
Latinx versus Latino conversation where like, you ask the overwhelming majority of Latinos
to be like, what the fuck are you talking about?
Just, yes, I'm Latino, right?
Like, what the fuck?
And for the, for the record, apparently this is very different in, um, in Canada.
So before Canadians get Mac is like Peltola was asked about this, like the is Eskimo
considered a slur in Alaska.
And I think she says something along the lines of like, no, um, but it is definitely a slur
in Canada.
From what I understand, Canada is like way more woke than we are.
Let's be real.
Anyway, one thing that's really funny about the Sawana designation for Zohra Mamdani is that,
well, first of all, I mean, there's so much to talk about with this tweet, because none of what
this person is saying actually fit the profile for Zohra Mamdani or Abdul. It fits for me, but I,
I, you know, you could say that about me.
I'm a white privileged Muslim guy from Suwana, right?
Or Mena, fucking Turkey, whatever, right?
Bazar Mamdani is a Muslim Gujarati Indian from Africa
and not North Africa, right?
So like, he doesn't even fit any of this.
Like this categorization is hyper-western.
Like it's just
Why not Nazwa why Africa last always this is inappropriate you locked it down you're right you're right about that
Dog Esma transleece the snow eater its turbo races
Mountain Dew Baja Blaha blast I guys
It's the same as like saying Indian. Okay, there's I
I understand wherever it originated from, but then people start, you know, I don't know what Eskimo translates to, but
but we're talking about like whether the intended audience
considers it to be inappropriate or not, right? Like
Do you understand?
You're being transphobic what?
How many condemnations do they do every morning for having the skin of a Yakubian devil?
Yeah I don't know.
But what was I saying?
I wasn't even talking about the Inuit Eskimo thing.
Let me just finish this off, okay?
Swannamenu's entire career is hinge on taking credit for other people's more radical achievements
while selling the lumpen proletariat down the river to pay for labor aristocratic gains.
Okay. This is the type of shit that a person says that even if they're like kind of right
on certain elements of their commentary, they just end up being their worst advocate, right?
Because you can't be talking like this white baby. You know what I'm saying? Like I'm sorry,
you can't be saying this. If we're gonna woke, if we're gonna woke it up, I'll fucking outwoke
you. You're white. Okay, you're white. Sit your white ass down and listen to the
Sawaana men. What the hell? To say this also about like Mamdani and El Sayed,
you know, myself, I have the white privilege, right? Or at least I'm like
white adjacent enough, which is also precisely the reason why a lot of people
in the in the hyper-woke community don't really fuck with me where they think the presentation is nasty
It's too aggressive. It's a reassertion of these like, you know
Systemic forms of harm and violence that in my very existence is is normalizing
Whatever
But Zoram on Donnie and I'll go I'll say it have been you know victim to heinous Islamophobia to the tune of
hundreds of millions of dollars at this point. So it is kind of crazy. Also,
Soran is not Middle Eastern. Like, what is his connection to the Middle
East that he's Muslim? That's it. Middle East, the region where Muslims come from.
I mean, I thought you were Latino when I first saw you. That's not surprising that
you thought I was Latino when you first saw me. It's because
flexicans are Turks. Everybody knows this. Turkey is also a part of the global
Latina belt. Okay. Maybe that's the reason why it's fine.
Hassan. But yeah, global, global Latina belt. Turkey's a part of it.
Big ass Puerto Rican wannabe. Stop it you are Serb. Crazy. Zoran is a Muslim Indian from
Gujarat. They're a rare Pokemon. Honestly, not really. Gujaratis are all over the West, bro.
And in like very unique ways, people are just randomly Gujarati and you're like,
How the fuck did that happen? Like it happens all the time. I mean, is it fucking Charlie XCX?
Am I crazy?
Isn't Charlie XCX like half Gujarati or something?
So it's not really that rare of a Pokemon, if you think about it, there's hella Gujaratis everywhere.
They're like the Lebanese, bro.
Gujaratis are like the Lebanese of the Indian area, you know what I mean?
They're just all over and they just exist in this liminal space.
They exist in this transitional space where you're like, no, that's a white woman.
And you're like, no, actually, never mind.
She's kind of spicy.
And then you find out, boom, Gujarati.
How did that happen?
Yeah, Gujarati is the Lebanon of India in the same way that Lebanese people have been
able to reach the highest stages of western society and also are like they're always hiding,
they're always hiding in the shadows. You're like, oh, that's a white Christian. And then you're like,
oh, no, that's actually a Lebanese person, right? Like, yeah, that's how the, that's how the Gujaratis
work too, in mysterious ways. Kashpatel is also Gujarati Ugandan, whose family was expelled
By idiomine? Yeah, see?
Anyway
Eskimo doesn't mean snow eater with the fuck it means the one who eat raw meat
That's the etymological meaning Jesus. I swear people get baited by the most far-right fed on the internet. Sure
Dinesh this is a writing this shit down right now. I don't think Dinesh is the gujarat

Huh. Anyway, where were we? I mean, I feel like I'm going through all this crazy stuff
piece by piece. Yeah. Marxist philosopher, uh, Saito Kohe, Kohe Saito has said Japan needs his own
Hassan Piker, what Japan's left should be imitating is him. We need a Hassan of our own. Saito teaches
at the university of Tokyo and has done popular YouTube interviews, but he's not a Twitch streamer.
It's pretty awesome. Yeah. He said one of Japan's leftists, uh, one of the, one Japan's leftists
should emulate him we need a Hassan that's my goat he said fuck the Joe
Rogan in the lead we need a Hassan piker of the left the Hassan Abbey of the
left that's what that's what he said meet him in Japan next year yes when I

Goddamn
House of electric love. Thank you for the 50 bones meant this more of them. Thank you for the 10 bones
Andrew filer, thank you for the 20
But yeah, this is
We got the we got the normies on our side with some of this
This, uh, some of this judged me by my enemy's big yahoo attack.
Cause everybody hates the guy for understandable reasons.
Yeah, Jason, that we was left confused after she unexpectedly crashed just 10 secs after
measuring Benjamin Netanyahu.
Netanyahu.
Rock-out Lee calls out Netanyahu.
back and his colleague is on. Yeah, that's the funniest thing is the funniest thing is people
people being like, um, this is my colleague. That's been the that's been the funniest reaction
to this is just like Twitch streamers being like, why is the Twitch streamer getting mentioned? And
now now we have to defend the Twitch streamer against the big yahoo.
I don't know who said America deserve 9 11 America deserve 9 11.
What the fuck? What's happening?
Nennyahu, Jesus Christ!
What the fuck?
Okay, I'm so sorry. Oh my god.
God's sake.
Dude, I...
Listen, um...
I don't know why a clip just started playing in the background.
I think it's because I have like a Twitter tab open, but all the videos are fine.
I don't know.
Yeah.
All the normies think he said it himself.
What do you mean?
Yeah, a vote against the son is a vote to to be alongside Benjamin in Yahoo.
Also Benjamin, I don't do say it.
He did.
And he's not alone.
Let's go down memory lane real quick because it turns out Benjamin Nenya, who is not the
only person who said America deserve 9-11.
There's a lot of people who have also said America deserve 9-11.
And of course I disavow them.
I find it strange and I find it disgusting that these people would say such heinous words.
America Ryan it's that nine oh wait let's start here could deserve 911. Whoa
America deserves 911
In America deserves 911 America deserves 911 I
luxury
911
We're 911 stop Guys
Unacceptable, do you understand?
Unacceptable and I condemn them and I disavow them, okay? I need you to understand I disavow all of these people I
Already disavowed them, but I'm extra disavowing them because they've all united
Under the banner of claiming that America is our 9-11 I think that's really fucked up America as you guys know my new thing
I'm working this out, but it's America didn't deserve 9-11. That's my that's what I believe and that's what I'm saying nowadays
So it's really messed up that these
Evil demons are saying America's are 9-11. There's a whole clip compilation of it. I find it really bad. Tis tis
Yeah
Hear me out
Hassan piker running for office
campaign slogan America didn't deserve 9-11 but what America deserves is
healthcare how about that how about that
anyway what was this there was there was two more Cliffs Rockout Lee calls
Netanyahu backing his colleague his song in rage had him in the house party with rock
Ali you caught his friends like Hassan piker who said America deserved 9 11
What?
I said that!
Who's Netanyahu?
The Max proceeds Jewish dude.
I mean what?
Bro, it's crazy because this is literally like this is Gen Z.
Okay, this is JZ like there this is this is there there
I mean his heart's in the right place. So that's fine. I think he said max prestige jewish, dude
Open the schools, man. He's like who runs the jewish niggas the owner of yahu
Yeah, I should post this I should tweet it. All right, but wait. Well, I guess I went to a party. I threw fuck man yahu
Canceler anything am I good this mother
That's pretty funny. They're learning. They're learning. They're learning. They're they're
learning. That's good that they got. That's funny. That's, uh, listen, zoomers, normie
Normie zoomers
Normie zoomers are learning they're getting better they're getting better at this stuff. It's good
It's good. I like it. What is this more pie glazing us on this is like what is this?
2019 we have a
we have
Twitch streamers like female twitch streamers and sex workers glazing me
I feel like this is a blast in the past this doesn't happen anymore
It used to happen all the time every day in 2019, but
Like dude think about her her reaction, right this person is I what is it? It's a
It's like she's like that like a normie content creator, right like normie content creator
Think about how terrified she is primate page the reason why she is because we did a collab in the past and she got fucking
Blasted right people were going crazy
They were like how dare you hang out with the song partners a fucking terrorist like so
For that reason like like she this person has no this person is just worried about the backlash
Okay, she's just straight up worried about the backlash
Like imagine imagine
Freaking out to this degree to be like oh, we can't put him in Mount Rushmore
Ironically enough that is audience captured to a certain degree
But think about how scared she is bro
Think about how scared she is
in that crazy yeah more problems he doesn't give a shit
what if he uses cruel punishment on his child he can use cruel punishment on me
okay thank you here I'll give you
That's crazy. This is why Ron pretended to not know what your politics are and rated
you low during his and Rage's tier list of shimmers. Yeah. Pure pressure is so real in
this space. It's fucking crazy. Pure pressure is so goddamn real in this space. Like, because
Because there were tremendous amounts of hate farms, these people literally have to
treat me like I'm fucking persona non grata.
It is what it is.
It'll slowly but surely change once again as woke becomes more commonplace again, becomes
the norm.
I feel like it's a LA club chasing thing as well. They're politically cowardly because it fucks up the bag
It's also vibes. It's vibes
It's like
It's vibes, right? It's peer pressure. It's vibes. It's
Stalkers that go crazy mode anytime. I'm mentioned anywhere
But yeah, this is what I this is what I've tried to explain over and over again that like a lot of people a
A lot of
Because this community can be also be vicious as fuck. No, it's not this community. It's the fucking haters that go crazy mode
Brand deals are a part of it for sure, but I think by and large it's also
Vibes most people don't actually think
Seriously about their politics about their political development and they just go off of they go off of vibes like they're like
Oh, I guess a lot of people are right wing if
or a lot of people operate off of like a permission structure, right?
So when you have someone like Asmongold who's constantly running his mouth and saying like,
hey, no shit, these people are just not going to respond to him, but they're not going to call
him out either, you know what I mean? And the reason why I'm bringing that up,
the reason why I'm also bringing that up is because the last couple of years,
The internet has become far more right-wing because of Twitter and because of Donald Trump's victory a
Lot of people a lot of people moved to the right a lot of normies
Move to a more socially conservative sphere
Some of which thought that this was the liberation the freedom to be able to say
You know, whatever you want to say, you know, we can say the our word now like that kind of thing
And then for many others, they just didn't want to, they just didn't want to get involved in it at all.
But the pendulum swing is shifting back, right?
The pendulum is shifting back to a more normal area.
You're like a sleeper agent cove for weirdos and they just see red as soon as you're mentioned anywhere.
Yeah, I mean this has been ongoing for years and years and years.
And yes, this is the end point of that. This is the end result of that. But, well, it'll,
things are getting better overall. I used myself as almost like a barometer for woke, right? Where
the more vicious, the more viciously I was attacked for the last three years, the more anti-woke
was, I guess, like kind of winning out in that conversation. But now the pendulum is swinging
back in the other direction where people find anti-woke people to be annoying and gross
and aggressive. Whereas from 2016 to like 2021, people found woke people to be kind of annoying.
Broadly speaking though, everyone was like, you know, pro BLM, pro whatever the
The the woke cause was and the pendulum is finally swinging back in our direction
I've seen the dog clip. I don't know if it's real or fake, but I don't know
Okay, there's a different bias going on. Okay, there we go be great. There we go. Perfect
Well, you know what? We'll make Twitter happy. We'll put him next to Saikuno.
Like, this is what I mean. I don't like Assam, but is the classical one without any real reason?
Pure social pressure.
Leftists have more in common with independent voters than either political party on actual policy.
Yeah.
Yeah, look at her chat. Like, this is what I mean.
This is a better father than a song. What actually a song's fans are vicious on Twitter
You know what actually never mind her her chat was actually way more nice. I mean, I guess it's cuz it's more pies community
Yeah, this was this was a funny moment to one of my friends just got mentioned in a fucking Netanyahu speech
I'm wearing a strap on from content today 2026 feels weird, bro
and then everyone was like, your friends with a son? Well, best of luck to you, darling.
Calling a son a friend is an indictment of your character.
Imagine, imagine being a fan of peach jars for years and years, okay? Beating your meat
To peach jars and not knowing that she's fucking woke
Not knowing that she's a leftist like it is hilarious. Of course. She is man. She's a woke sex worker
Like what what are you talking about?
a lot of it is group think yeah yeah wait poor stars are woke that's crazy
I don't even mention a song by name but so many people are saying how evil he
isn't just skipping over that I also mentioned Satan himself who's leading a
genocide guess that isn't important because streamer bad
Hassan is evil, Netanyahu's existence doesn't absolve Hassan, Netanyahu's
Palestine's problem, Hassan is America's problem. Hassan is not running for
obviously shims on Twitch.
No, these people literally will go, no actually Hassan is evil. Hassan is evil, I
will not be, I will not be addressing why and when they do, when they do address
what it is it's all just like a fucking pre-canned sequence of made-up shit
Hassan murdered his dog Hassan actually was sex trafficking minors it's like
what the fuck are you target yeah I would be able if I did any of those things
you're fucking psycho he just made it up Hassan hates black people son he
strange people. It is really funny. It's really funny because like people fall for the bait
every single time. And I think they like, they, they enjoy the process of caring about
little things, little things that are in front of them all the time, little things that other
people goad them into caring about. This is how the transpanic stuff also worked as well, right?
If you care about small shit, if you are made aware of small things that do not impact your life
in any meaningful capacity, if you are willing and able to engage in these distractions personally,
because you feel like that's the only thing that matters, because you understand that there is
nothing you can do about the big stuff, then yeah, you're just continuing along the same trajectory.
Right? That guy saying Netanyahu's Palestine's problem is a perfect example of this because like,
yeah, you're fucking your cousin that that failed in school is now potentially going to be cannon
fodder in the Middle East. Netanyahu's not just a, you know, Palestine's problem. Woke of him to
to acknowledge Palestine as a nation state.
But, you know, he's your problem too.
But yeah, but a lot of people don't understand it.
They don't understand it.
And that's how bigotry's work.
That's how they are.
That's how bigotry's are effective at distracting people.
That's how a lot of people personally get invested
in these causes because they're told
this is an important cause to get invested in and they lose sight of far larger, far
more consequential problems that we should be tackling.
Nice.
That's fire.
All that aura and still no medicare for all.
The
Khyethan got way too out of hand is sad if they just know how good you treat her it's unfair. Yeah, it's fine
We clocked it Ludwig the thing is with RP it rots your brain. I'm never playing it Valkyrie
What do you mean it rots your brain? That's rich coming from you after everything you've been saying on the internet
Oh my god
I'm never playing it.
If we did one lifer's, just watch your brain.
That's rich coming from you after everything you've been saying on the internet.
Oh my god.
What did I say that was wrong?
One thing.
Oh no.
Here we go.
Here we go.
One thing.
There we go.
I've been off the internet.
I was an edge here in concert last night.
What happened?
There we go.
Oh my god.
I was an Ed Sheeran concert last night. What happened?
There we go
Oh my god, chudwig chudwig destroyed
Yeah, if there's one guy who had a worse week than me, it's it's a coworker wig. Let's be real
Once the blue tsunami hits in the midterms are over
I guarantee people in these normie streamers are gonna switch up on you overnight not to mention 400 plus k
of yours on election day? Yeah, no, it's coming back. It's coming back. I already know it in my heart.
I already know in my soul is coming back. Woke is around the corner. It's a new type of woke.
It's a different type of woke. But it's around the corner, baby. You'll see.
You know how, you know, when we'll know, woke us around the corner when XQC starts leaning
into like Democratic Party talking points, okay?
Do you understand?
It's gonna happen.
When Azman Gold stops talking about politics, when XQC starts saying like, actually Chad,
I think it's bad to be ableist dude.
Now, that sounds like impossible, right?
That sounds like it's an impossible thing that I'm mentioning, right?
Except it's not.
That used to be the case.
That excuse, he used to do that.
Excuses was like Mr. BLM.
He was a big advocate against ableism.
He would be like, don't say the R word, you know, all this stuff.
who's now making George Floyd memes with his, with his chatters, used to literally be this like
woke guy. And that's usually how the vibes work. Okay. That's usually how these vibes work. That's
usually how more people get, I guess, peer pressured, or at least like people become more
comfortable expressing their viewpoints. But for the longest time for the last like couple years,
People have been terrified of expressing their viewpoints if they're not right-wing,
because there's been tremendous pressure in the spaces that we occupy
to maintain a right-wing framework, to operate off of a right-wing framework.
So all these people that you know as like forever chuds will inevitably...
What is this post this bit on your time on so it breaks the brain of your haters
This
Yeah, that was that was a lot back in the day yeah new RNC convention
exaggerating for the camera I'm not exaggerating for the camera this is very real are you kidding
me is fucking I hate cool plunges but anyway what I was saying is you'll know you'll know
woke is making a comeback big time when inevitably a lot of these guys that you know is like
permachuds stop being fucking permachuds and it's already it's already happening in different
segments of the internet and it will eventually come to twitch as well because twitch for
the last three years I would say has been a slanted very right wing sometimes even far right
you know
I miss the old days man what is this
Wait, this is not the old days. This is when we were in China. What do you mean? This was
like last year. It's only been one year since we did this. You're making it seem like these are
you making it seem like this is a lifetime ago. That's not the old days. This is the new days.
All right, let's see what this video is about Hassan Piker because when your name is brought
up both by the president of the United States and Donald Trump in the same week, you get
it president of the United States and Donald Trump are undeniably one of the most important
figures in not only American politics, but international politics disagree all you want.
But when you're someone who's met with movement leaders like Jeremy Corbyn, Jean-Luc MĆ©lenchon,
and Janis Verifakis, being barred from entering countries while being invited to speak at
international conferences and events, and having your name dropped at the United Nations
General Assembly, you are an undeniably important figure internationally.
You are a legitimate threat to the status quo, and I think I know why.
Yes. This also breaks a lot of people's brains because they, they, they look at this and they go,
no, it's because, no, the reason why, the reason why he's getting name dropped is because he's
actually not a real threat. And it's like, how does that even make sense? How does that make sense,
buddy? Like, it's crazy where there are people on the timeline, people on the left,
people that that consider themselves to be to my left that will look at all of
this stuff that will look at the barrage of attacks and go no they're
actually propping him up as a villain because he's safe they're not coming
after me yeah they're they keep saying like oh they're not they're not coming
after me and my Marxist reading group
because we are the real threat you know we are the real threat it's like no I
I think these people in positions of power understand the power that this community holds
and the power that simply saying the truth holds in mainstream outlets.
And it's very funny that a lot of people will be like, no, that's not enough. You should be,
you know, firebombing the DNC headquarters or something. It's like, okay, dude, please stop.
Or don't, I don't know, I just, I can't, I...
Played by the rules, the very slow, mundane monotonous rule set forth by the political
elite of the United States government, and he is succeeding.
He has made the extraordinary happen by doing the most un-extraordinary thing one can do.
He gets in front of a computer for seven, eight hours a day, and he apps about everything
he sees and thinks about with the news, he rallies his community to do whatever work
is capable for their size and numbers, regardless of what his 30 concurrent viewers or 30,000
concurrent viewers.
He gets out on the front lines whether that is for protests or door knocking for political
candidates.
He hasn't done anything remotely revolutionary.
He has simply put in the work and more importantly for those who are willing to see, he has created
a blueprint, a very boring, very simple, but easily replicable blueprint for anyone with
a conviction and willpower to replicate.
Yes, that's exactly the point. Ordinary people have the power, especially if they're united
and directed towards specific causes and specific changes that they want to see. That is precisely
the reason why I do this stuff that I do like door knocking and canvassing for
candidates to show people that they shouldn't be afraid to do it. Same thing
with the phone banks, right? Same thing with like direct action that we engage in
mutual aid that we engage in as well like the skid row stream for example. A lot
of people forget like many people just say oh, Sompiger is just a
Shreemry just sits at home and he doesn't do anything. It's like yeah, it's
because they don't fucking know what I do. It's understandable. I don't expect
them to know what I do. And we don't even do enough promotion on the stuff that is, I
guess, considered somewhat boring. You know, the fundraisers, the charities, the mutual
aid, all the stuff that we do in this community and all the stuff that I directly do is done
specifically so that I'm, you know, I'm trying to get other people to do it as well. It's
Yeah, interviewing the wild the wild fire firefighters the incarcerated firefighters like stuff like that
Everyone has the power to do this stuff everyone has the power to learn about this stuff
Everyone has the power to get more involved
On as well as those in his orbit have proven the fundamental truth
That when you have the numbers of the people behind you the many can and will overpower the few you need to have an honest conversation
A lot of people my DSA chapter talks you about you and while I respect their right to have their own opinion about you
I think it's foolish of them not to credit you for the net positive you are pulling more people. That's actually unique
I've never actually heard anyone in DSA chap. Which DSA chapter are you a part of?
What the fuck
It's got to be one of the rogue ones that's like Rhode Island or something who there who are like
separationist or some shit.
There are some there are some rogue chapters out there that that don't fuck with
Must be a lay now is definitely not a lay
dude
There are Hassanabahaz that are directly members of
DSA because of this community because of the stream in virtually every fucking
DSA chapter around the country
Space Coast
Some people don't like to admit that. Yeah, I don't think it's embarrassing to admit that, especially if you're in DSA, you are, you know, you're probably, that's in Florida.
Oh, I've never, I didn't even know there's a Space Coast, the SA chapter, but it's cool.
There's Hella Israeli Hassanabahids in the chat. Yeah, it's stuff like this that really
frustrates so many people who don't understand the point, who don't understand the vision,
who think that they have a better solution and will continue to, will continue to advocate
for whatever they're agitating for or advocating for,
but it usually just stays online.
One example I will use is Daria Lisa, right?
There are a lot of people who got mad at Daria Lisa,
Avila Chevalier getting arrested at the JVP protests, right?
There were a lot of people,
and it's really interesting to me because Daria as a poster
and as an elected is probably the closest to their politics
that they will ever have.
So what's the purpose?
What's the goal there?
If you are shitting on Daria Lisa, who was at an, who was at a pro-Palestine
protest on October 8th, okay, 2023, who was at a pro-Palestine protest on
October 8th, 2023, if that is the person you're getting mad at as an elected
representative, the person that is literally just a one to one, a person that
is one to one, closest to your worldview, closest to your ideology. If you're shitting on that person,
then you have, you've run out of options, right? You don't have anything. You don't have anything.
You just want a chirp. That's it. I'm sorry. Like, we're talking about, if you're, if you're getting
matter like Brad Landers is different, right? Like, but like Dottie Aliza is the closest to your
worldview. Dottie Aliza is the closest to like a Twitter Ultra as you can get that is,
that has run and won her seat of power in Congress. Right? Who else?
If you hate Dottie Aliza as a as a leftist if you hate Dottie Aliza as a leftist you've
lost the fucking plot. Okay at that point you're not invested in anything whatsoever you'll
just say like oh no she didn't run as like a Green Party representative she ran as a
Democrat and that's why right yeah she was literally a Twitter poster it's not that she's
She's just a Twitter poster, okay?
Dalia Elisa of Elisheva Lea is not just a Twitter poster.
She posted on Twitter, but she also went out and protested.
She got arrested in the past.
She got kicked off campus, Columbia campus.
She was part of Kuad, right?
And she did it all.
She went through the route.
She protested.
She wrote about Palestine for you.
She went to the West Bank.
She was an activist.
She was a PhD student, she protested, she got expelled, suspended, arrested for it for years,
right?
And then she said, all right, fuck it, it's time to ball.
It's time to actually, you know, put this theory to test.
A literal police abolitionist, by the way, okay?
I thought Aliza believes in certain things that even I find to be far out there.
OK, she's an organizer, she's an activist.
She did it all, right?
She did it all.
And then she ran for office and she defeated
the head of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, Adriana Espayat.
So she went from being an organizer who received significant penalties
For her pro-Palestine organizing and activism to literally being the representative that represents
the district that Columbia University is on and
She's still continuing the pressure campaign and if you have smoke for her
if
You have smoke for her
At this point
Then your expectations are I don't even know what they are you just kind of hate
Everything you kind of hate anyone. That's like earnestly trying to make changes. I
Know I know that the the you know the easiest retort to this is oh, it's performative
Yeah, it's all performative. It's all a performance. You fucking idiot. That's what yes
That's what activism is about. Yes. There is a performance element to it. What are you talking about?
I truly don't understand it, I truly, truly, truly don't understand it, and it's always
shocking to me because, it's shocking to me because like they sound exactly like the
centrist, they sound like the Zionist liberals.
Design is liberal all of the left activism is strictly an excuse for them to get pictures and content of themselves protesting so they can post on social
media for clout prove me wrong you can't
It's like is this is this a a Zionist centrist liberal or is this an ultra
All the people came out of nowhere to shit on the JVP protest really bothered me people saying it's like a celebrity organized photo
Up which is literally the constant Fox news talking point, but from the left. I know
I know.
I find it odd.
The point of protest against messaging politics is cloud. It is to change the minds of citizens so they elect more people like Dottie Elyse.
This is why you could not understand how Chris Wrapp became your elected congressman in West Philly.
You're an idiot, says Austin Ox.
Yeah, that's true. He's from Philadelphia. This account, the centrist and fan account.
account, Wilson Valdez and hated that Chris Rabe won. But that's the centrist version,
but there's also the left version of this as well.
The real criticism and the real pressure that should be placed upon Zoran should revolve around
things that are within his realm of power, right? Not disbanding the sRG,
not dealing with with Jaskitish, not having a succession plan potentially.
Like that's what the, those are valid critiques of Zoram Amnani, asking why, asking for him to explain
why he's constantly glazing Hikim Jeffries.
Goddamn does sRG shit really hurt you? Yes, dude.
It is an anti-terror initiative within the New York police department that is costly,
that's expensive, and that works to literally attack, like sRG literally attacked Daria Lisa,
Where she was at Columbia, of course, and it was a campaign promise of his too
It wasn't one of the top five, but it was certainly a campaign promise. So yes, that is
That is a a significant difference in opinion that I was Zara
What the fuck
It didn't just hurt me. It hurt a lot of people that I love. It hurt a lot of people that that I care about.
Like it's not just a simple disagreement that I have, you know, and I mean, it's like this is this is huge. This is impactful. This is something that he could do as the mayor.
Okay?
But yeah, it reminds me of the way people treated the Cuba aid mission that we did, right?
It reminds me of that where people were just like, oh, you're wearing, no, you're doing this for cloud. It's like, dude, dude.
You're absurd, you're sitting at home, you're not doing anything and you're getting mad at people trying to highlight an ongoing atrocity that the American government is responsible for.
You have to, you have to wonder like is this productive? What is what I'm doing productive or am I just simply chirping?
Anyway, this was funny. Move over a song that a queen has arrived. Who is the real leader
of the left? Teaches 30 year olds gay shit and cushy. Is taller than Jalen Brunson, not
in the NBA. Changes his office to be less scary, never stops cursing. Politicians have
to constantly denounce him. Larves is a communist.
Miss Rachel teaches children educational fundamentals, shoots threes like she's Steph Curry, wears
same office as day one, never curses. No one denounces the queen. We'll put the means of
production back in the hands of the workers where it belongs. It's true. It's true. I will
never hold a candle to Ms. Rachel and her impact.
But in any case, as I was saying, wait, what was this?
What I'm trying to say is I wish people would think in more productive ways.
at a time when we are check logs for flowchart or are you larping or a
politicking? wait what?
the greatest political flowchart you've ever laid your eyes on. what is this? are
you yapping about it? are you living it? this is so this is too much man I hear
I'll look at it, but
Is your politic purely hypothetical? Yes fiction philosophy thought experiment, but we can make it real with fiction theory fiction
No, is your policy purely hypothetical? No under what circumstances is it possible now?
Are you only theorizing about it only theorizing political science not just theorizing are you only yapping about it?
Are you living it just yapping political commentary living it is it just an aesthetic or do you care?
I care if it's an aesthetic then your post political aesthetic signaling clavicular
What the fuck is this flow chart dude?
Covered by Mike Imich taking from a doom scroll, it was the best part of it.
Is it just an aesthetic to you, or do you care? I care. Are you doing something to alter the course of politics?
I don't need to. It's broadly fine.
Human action doesn't matter. Structural determinism.
Which then turns you into doomerism. No, it's hopeless doomerism. Are you doing something to alter the course of politics?
Human action doesn't matter structural determinism. Are you doing something to alter the course of politics? Yes, are you succeeding in some small way? Yes, you are doing a politic.
Are you doing something to alter the course of politics? I don't need to, it's broadly fine, but I'm going to influence politics so it stays fine.
Congratulations, you are doing a politics. Are you succeeding in some small way? No, you're a radicalized but hypothetically impotent hyper politics
This is so painfully fail any oh, I feel like even caring about politics in any way shape or form is fail any oh
What are you talking about?
Actually, I don't know zoomers are really invested in and you know
So increasingly insane sectarian versions of the political process, but don't underestimate
your impact big dog.
I'm sorry, like the first half was good, but then it just like the music stops you got to put more transitions you got to put more aura
moments into it
Revolutionary optimism, always, and we will win.
You c-
The chapel was beautiful, I agree.
Let's always gotta get a Timinyap at the end of an aura edit, I know.
The head of the most influential dem party aligned think tank in the country drawing
and a close between the genocidal war criminal leader of a country attempting to merge his
military with our own and a Twitch streamer is actually pretty concerning time to end
a American center for American progress.
Well, I think it's time to end center for American progress, but it's near a tandem
should leave.
I think that they would be better overall if they weren't run by near a tandem.
But that's the purpose of Neera Tandon, right?
Here, don't take my word for it.
I want to show you guys something.
We're going to talk about Neera Tandon briefly, and then we're going to move on to some other
stuff.
Neera Tandon, obviously, has been making quite the impact on the timeline because that's
all she cares about.
I said Neera's entire purpose is to appease big donors by constantly yelling at the Israel
critical left and make Dems on the Hill more applying to the demands of the military industrial
complex.
This is why she tweets all the time.
She doesn't care about electoral performance, just her performance here.
This is, of course, after Jeet Heer said fun facts against the opposition of her own
staff near attending gave a softball interview to Netanyahu in 2015 while he had worked to
subvert Obama's foreign policy.
She was a senior advisor to Joe Biden who had a policy of no daylight between the U.S.
and Netanyahu's Israel.
And that is precisely the reason why she was brought back to the Center for American Progress,
the way because our entire goal is to punish the left quote unquote punish the left here don't take
my word for it we are going to go to someone who I disagree with vehemently who at the very least
who I disagree with vehemently who at the very least got this part correct okay his name
his name is matty iglesias in a conversation
with Noah Smith. This is from a year ago, okay? Now, if you know anything about Matt Iglesias,
you've probably heard him talk about groups, okay? You've probably heard him talk about
groups, and how groups are poisonous, and how the woke big donors are actually the reason
why the Democratic Party takes increasingly unappealing positions on issues like transgender
people should not be murdered. That's his perspective. And why are the Democrats broadly
taking these super progressive points of view? Well, it's because of the donors. That's Matt
Iglesias' conversation as his argument. He believes that the Democratic Party is run by
staffers, some of which are Hassanabi heads, many of which are very progressive, and the donors also
highlight the needs of these staffers, the concern of these staffers, except Matt Iglesias, although
I don't fully agree with his like, you know, donors are making Democrats more woke argument,
he actually arrives at a rather crude, but rather correct observation in a moment of prescience.
Let's take a look at our left wing. There's some feedback, you know, feedback in the other
direction, but I think you should really see that Gaza is an issue that actually separates
these two dynamics because the staffers are very left-wing on Palestine because they're young
and the donors tend to be quite pro-Israel to oversimplify because many of them are Jewish.
It's okay for me to say this. I'm Jewish. Yes, um,
right. Uh, so, you know, I would, I would have expected like, you know, Asian donors to be sort
of like rising and taking over at this point. The democratic party, progressive donors is
very, very disproportionately Jewish. Quite probably. It's like Jews are like 1%. Yes, but I
But I mean, it's it's it's big, um, and so you, you see a real divide around this and you've seen it. Yes. Uh,
There is a disproportionate amount of
Jewish big donors and Jewish donors in the democratic party. There's a disproportionate amount of Jewish donors in the republican party as well
Okay, by and large Jews have done fairly well in the united states of america at least in the last couple of decades, especially
And they donate to a lot of causes
Okay
Many of them also are very woke
Okay? There is some truth to what Matt Iglesias is saying. As a matter of fact, some of the
biggest donors of the Democratic Party, like Haim Saban and whatnot, have actually, maybe not
Haim Saban, I can't speak to his donations in the last cycle. But like, there are a lot of big
donors and a lot of big institutions that fundraise, that have pulled out from fundraising for the
Democratic Party. And a big part of the reason is because of Israel. They, there are a lot of,
of, this doesn't mean that like Jews are organized on the issue of Israel, but there are plenty
who have direct financial ties to Israel that have businesses in Israel that want to prop
up Israel that actually feel some type of way about the Democratic Party's base of support
swinging wildly against Israel because of Israel's genocide of the Palestinians and
more people becoming broadly aware of the reality that Israel's an apartheid state, okay?
That is also something that, if you recall, Madeline Sweet brought up in our conversation
as well, where she said, like, look, I'm in the game. I'm very familiar. She was working
in Democratic Party politics in Georgia, where she said, like, it's a known thing that there
There are a lot of people who care quite a bit about Israel that don't want to fundraise
for the Democratic Party any longer because they are slowly but surely becoming single
issue voters on the matter and pulling out their donations and pulling out their charitable
contributions if an NGO or an institution or the Democratic Party broadly is seen as
anti-Israel play out in institutions where there has been a lot of staff pressure to
do solidarity with Palestine, but also a lot of donor pressure, not to do it. On most issues,
there's just alignment between left-wing donors and left-wing staffers.
Who is the left-wing staffer?
We've been ignoring the staffers on that stuff.
Oh, shit.
Who has the donors and the staffers?
You know, it varies. So like the Center for American Progress,
the staffers went out and CAP criticized the Obama administration from the left on Palestine quite
heavily. What about now that one? What about most post October 7, 2023? No, no, no, I mean post October
7. Oh, okay. So they were putting out statements like, you know, like Obama, cut off farm supplies,
etc. But the guy who was executive director of that organization has left since then.
Matt Iglesias is 100% right about this, by the way. I can't believe I'm saying this.
And part of it is because he has obviously deep insight into what goes on,
because he is a creature of the swamp. But he's right. Center for American Progress
obviously was the, you know, premier centered left institution in Washington, D.C.
And basically they, they, uh, exed out the previous guy, I forget who his name, what his name is now,
but they brought in, yeah, they pushed aside Israel critic Patrick Gaspard from leadership,
Right? It was written about in Jewish Insider as well. The liberal think tank rehired top
Biden advisor, Neera Tandon, as it struggles with its mission and fundraising. Neera Tandon was
rehired at the Center of American Progress to explicitly court pro-Israel donors. She brought
in Anthony Blinken in a controversial move to the board of Center for American Progress. Anthony
Blinken, for those of you who don't know, was obviously the Secretary of State for Biden and,
you know, was a, and continued Israel's genocide. But to understand like what Nira's goals are here,
you have to see it. Like it's just, this is deliberate. And Nira Tandon's performance on
Twitter is also to appease those same donors. It might not be all that impactful in the real world,
right? It's not very impactful in the real world, but it doesn't matter. Even if it's
devoid of impact in the real world, she's still appeasing those donors. It's no different than
what Josh Gottheimer did with Mike Lawler when they came out with that dual condemnation bill,
saying that I was this like arch anti-Semite, and so was Candace Owens on the right,
and that both of these anti-Semites need to be deplatformed. That was a messaging bill.
That bill is not going to go through. No one's going to vote on it. It's ridiculous, right?
But why did Josh Gottheimer and Mike Lawler put forward this messaging bill? They put it forward
to appease their donors to say, look, we're trying. We're trying our very best. It doesn't actually
have to work. You just simply have to make it seem like you're tirelessly working.
Okay.
she's audience captain in a specific way. I mean, yes, she's a think tank demon.
Of course, she's audience captured, uh,
in the sense that she cares about how big donors perceive her,
her job, her primary responsibility is not for the Democrats to win.
Her primary responsibility is to constantly discipline the left,
cause the constantly yell about the left,
constantly discipline the left and try to chart a different,
more moderate path forward, right?
Yeah, your audience, I'm audience captured by my boss, exactly. So that's her job, right?
And we had a little bit of a battle here, but anyway, let's finish this Madaglaceous
thing and then I'll get back to Nero. Tandon, who I've known for a long time, who one of
the things she specifically did in her previous stent as president of CAP was disciplined left-wing
staffers who wanted to criticize Israel too much. And, you know, it would be overly simplifying
it to say like she was brought in specifically to discipline people on that issue. But that's not
not what happened. If you know what I mean, like there is an element there, you know,
staffers in the particular circumstances of COVID could like really bully everybody.
But like in the real world, if you're writing the checks, you know, you can get what you
want.
Got it.
Yeah.
And when the checks start drying out, the organization has to engage in this restructuring because
their primary purpose is to maintain the connective tissue between big donors and the
Democratic electeds, right?
That's Nier-Attendee's job.
Her job is to be the connective tissue between big lobbyist firms and interest groups.
elected representatives. She's in those rooms, she's doing, you know, for, she's
doing these like policy as a think tank, they're creating policy, right? They're
creating policy, and the goal of that policy is to take like, put a leftist
veneer on otherwise like a pretty moderate policy prescriptions, right? It's
almost like a continuation of the uniparty approach. This is precisely the
reason why under near attendance rule, Center for American Progress is not
going to be outwardly pro Medicare for all. They're constantly going to look for
new things that they can write, new policies they can write that doesn't
eradicate the the profit-centric, profit-motive-centric attitude that
Democratic legislators have around the the American healthcare system.
Okay. Stop saying moderate fucks sake, say right wing. Okay. Canunk. Don't get so mad. Yes, it is right wing. It's not moderate. I'm just, you know, I'm referring to it in the way that they would refer to it.
But this is how it works. This is how it works. You go in and you try to present yourself
as like a centrist, a reasonable centrist, a moderate, but the goal there is to basically
do everything in your power to, one, punish the left flank viciously and to make sure
that you identify who leftist might be in your think tank.
Because Cap is a Clintonite institution
through and through the best way to refer to it would be third way.
Yes. But there have been periods within the Center for American Progress.
There's like two groups in Washington, D.C.
that are at least more like nominally on the left.
Open Society's Foundation and anything George Soros used to fundraise is like,
again, they're not leftists, they're not socialists.
they're anti-communist, they're viciously anti-communist, they're viciously anti-left, but they are
nominally to the left in comparison. And Center for American Progress throughout different
periods has also been nominally to the left, like a center-left think tank, right?
So Center for American Progress is foundationally a Clintonite institution. Through and through,
not wrong and near attendance job is to bring it back to that more right-wing perspective
for center for American progress because I hate to give credit to Maddie Glacias but
like center for American progress is supposed to be churning out what is this does anyone
know what influence groups is aligned with Buddha judge fight agency slash was on piker
Yeah, exactly. So in any case, yeah, from Jewish insider, in his time atop the organization
Gaspard notably embraced the hostile approach Israel and the Biden administration's handling
of Israel's war against Hamas and Gaza, even as the nonprofit had during 10 years struck
a more balanced note on Middle East policy that have been viewed favorably by pro-Israel
activists. That was the entire purpose for why Neera Tandon was brought back to Center
for American Progress. If we're going to have a real conversation about where the Democratic
Party is going, we have to look at the think tanks as well, because the think tanks were
on the fucking show. And let's be real, the third way, the Center for American Progress,
these think tanks have lost their prominence amongst many of the electeds as well. Part
of that is because the electeds have to be responsive to the needs of the base, and the base
has shifted so dramatically to the pro-Palestine position on this that it is virtually impossible
for the electeds to find an even keeled approach on this issue, on the issue of Israel, because it
is black and white, genocide is black and white. So they're panicking right now, because their big
donors actually care about Israel quite a bit, and many of them don't even want to take a J.
street-style position on it. They just straight up want their elected representatives to continue
representing a pro-Israel position. So, Nira Tandon knows that she can't really get her
wishes across. She can't really change the outcome. But what she can do instead is constantly chirp
about the left, constantly chirp about someone like myself. Right? And that's precisely what
she's doing here. I responded to Nira, who then, of course, did the classic thing and
claimed I was being anti-semitic. We'll talk about that really quickly.
I know this stuff probably sounds boring, right? But this is how, you know, this is how moves
get made behind closed doors, while a lot of people are not paying close attention to it,
right? Like this is, it seems kind of boring because you're like, what the fuck? She's just like a
random crazy drunk lady on Twitter. But like that random crazy drunk lady on Twitter is actually
quite impactful, right? In any case, I responded to her after she attacked Sam Cedar, right?
Sam Cedar says, near attended Sarah Longwell are desperate for outside deludes. They're using
a Sompiker now as a function of Sarah Longwell's push to make a Sompiker household name, which she
did quite effectively. She just lifted it up and let the Republicans pick it up. It's either sheer
ignorance of Longwell or Nira or just a desperate desire to maintain their power. They are desperate
to have people like Abdel El Sayed lose. Desperate, you can see it. They are white knuckled, says this
clipping account. Nira Tandon responds to the clipping account and says, Hi, Sam Cedar. I'm
happy to chat anytime on your show or anywhere else about this. I want Abdel El Sayed to win,
And I think Piker is unhelpful to that cause, which I think is pretty factual assessment,
and perhaps one shared by Abdul Al-Sayed, given he said he won't campaign with him.
Let me know if you're willing to talk live. I said, you should probably stop highlighting
and legitimizing reactionary framing and Republican attacks against Abdul from a
nominally liberal perspective. But I guess your donors with financial ties to Tel Aviv don't want
you to stop. The way she responded with, definitely not beating the anti-Semitic charge by claiming
my current concerns about you as an anchor around Al-Sayed is not because you say things that
that offend like 85% of Americans, like America has pound for pound worse than Al-Qaeda and
deserve 9-11, but it's because of Jewish money. I hope he wins. And the less you do interviews,
the more likely he is to. Okay, notice how every conversation is framed around electoral
performance, no matter how cynical, no matter how ridiculous. This is how it goes. Okay,
they are trying to put the toothpaste back in the tube that like electoral performance,
The left is actually bad for electoral performance.
They are doing their very best to rewrite that script because they recognize that that's
the only script they have to win in the primaries and to continue this uniparty message around
Israel, to continue this uniparty message around healthcare, remaining in private hands
and the hands of profiteers.
So they know that they will have a very big problem on their hands.
their goals are to make sure that only pliant and pro-corporate lobbying Democrats get elected
at a time when people are demanding changes. They know that they are losing the electoral
ism argument. Democrats, like Nieratandon, run a very simple message. They say our candidate
is the most electable in the primaries and they win that way. And then when the general comes
around, they say harm reduction. Harm reduction is the name of the game. Vote for our candidate
because our candidate is objectively better than the Republican. Okay? That's it. So when someone
like Abdul wins, and in some parts because of his association with someone like myself,
this becomes a real threat to the centrist think tankers. This becomes a major threat to
the centrist think tankers because they don't want this to be replicable anywhere else. And
for that reason, they will consistently attack Abdul, but they can't openly say that they don't
want Abdul to win, obviously. So they try to consistently laser at Abdul with right wing
framing, leaning into the right wing framing and saying, see the right wing narrative around Abdul,
I don't agree with it fully, but like, of course, they're going to use this. They'll
elevate the salience of right-wing smear campaigns, okay?
They're paying lip service support for Abdul and highlighting the importance of
the Michigan race so they can later blame you as a key factor why Dems lost a key
seed. They are more invested in maintaining the salience and the success of, you can only
win if you pivot and moderate narrative. They care about that more than anything else, okay?
Nira was more against Abdul than you were for Crowley, Snakes and the Gras. It's true.
I have offered more support to David Crowley than Nira has to Abdul El Sayed, my candidate
lost in that primary, but ultimately I said, look, it is what it is, still better than
a Republican, because I'm actually consistent.
Nira, on the other hand, is not, right?
Can you imagine if I constantly attacked David Crowley from the point that he won the primary
until this very moment, saying like, I want David Crowley to win, but it's like crazy
that he's, you know, two centrist for me, two centrist for me.
I had one criticism in the beginning, which was the data center thing, right?
Because I saw Tom Tiffany positioning himself as being anti data center and
positioning David Crowley as being pro data center,
which I know is going to be a real big issue, especially in Wisconsin, right?
So I want him to handle that, uh, on the messaging side, but it wasn't like, uh,
I wasn't highlighting the right wing narratives at all.
said over and over again that Tom Tiffany is a Republican and absolutely will be worse
on data centers than even the most like moderate Democrat is going to be, right?
But that's not how you win elections. You win elections in many instances by lying. Tom
Tiffany is lying when he says he's going to be more aggressive in his pursuit of data
centers being built and stop data centers from being built in people's backyards. But
doesn't matter. He is protecting his image. He is presenting himself as someone who will punish
those who want to build data centers and presenting David Crowley as being pro-building data centers
because David Crowley has said a lot of things that are pro-data centers. So that's an issue.
But I didn't harp on David Crowley every single day in the same way that Neera Tandon is
harping on me every single day and attacking Abdul by attacking me every single day.
right? Right? So, in any case, her also saying is Jewish money is ridiculous, right? That's
why I responded to her and said, yeah, it's definitely anti-Semitic experience. I assume
your endless elevation of right wing talking boys and complains about Abdul winning the
primary probably stem from your private undisclosed donors. Hey, why did you put Blinken on the
Board of Center for American Progress. Adam Johnson also said this dispute is eminently
resolvable. All she has to do is disclose her donors, which she refuses to do for the most
spurious and nonsensical of reasons. You know, that's it.
Anyway, Sarah Longwell and Tim Miller have unpay walled their, their conversation after
there was a lot of controversy around like whether Sarah Longwell wants Abdul to win
or not.
I'm not going to lie.
I think Sarah Longwell doesn't like Zoran doesn't like Abdul, but I think she's more
invested in them winning than even near-attendinous.
Like there's varying degrees of wanting to maintain the pivot to the center, pivot to
the right attitude.
I'm not even kidding when I say this, like it sounds crazy to say, but I think, and
bull work across the board is very different.
And generally got Tim Miller, who very clearly, you know, wants Democrats to win.
I think near-attending is worse than Sarah Longwell in some respects.
Why Democrats have shown a Sompiker, what I saw when a Sompiker in Abdul El Sayed came
into town, is a Sompiker toxic or gettable?
You know, she said this is psychotalk, get a grip man, right?
same Cedar basically called out Sarah Longwell and near attended, right?
Anyway, Sarah Longwell graciously provided the segment from the Bullwark's paywall,
the secret podcast, which talks to him Miller by Hassan, Tim Miller. I didn't think it
was smart for Malli McMororra or Haley Stevens to make a big deal about criticizing Abdul
for Hassan. There's a very important part of the democratic base that is right about
American foreign policy choices and probably right about healthcare.
Hassan Piker was speaking to them and Abdul was speaking to them going after Hassan in
a very personal way. That was a very bad way to signal to send. That was a very bad
signal to send both wrong on the policy merits and wrong on the strategy merits.
I think a lot of Democratic voters are looking at Haley and Hillary's scolting and being
like what are you doing?
I think you're losing credibility.
Sarah and Tim then agree that some Democrats are helping the Republicans in their quest
to make a sound pike or the face of the party.
I don't think these guys understand that if they want to be a part of the big tent, they
got to come to us.
Not the other way around.
I had something to say about this a while back as well when this thing,
when this controversy, this manufactured controversy first started, um,
I said this identifying,
this was my analysis way back in the month of April,
when I was first becoming this big point of contention in the primaries,
liberals don't have this opinion. This is a unique opinion. Um,
most self identifying liberals, as Tim is trying to point out to her,
have completely dropped Israel. Like they have a very, very antagonistic opinion of
Israel. You know what I mean? So her anger, her resentment in this moment is actually
stemming from the fact that like, it's not just that liberalism is failing. It certainly
is. But also, she's worried that she might not have space in the party. Okay? I think
what it is. She's worried that a party that has me in the tent is going to not cater to her.
It's going to cater to us. And she's worried that she is going to be left alone, right?
She doesn't want to be part of the Republican party any longer because the Republicans are gross.
They're disgusting. They say horrible things. They're stupid. We've seen this with like the
Richard Hananya and all these other like former white supremacists who are still kind of,
I mean, who are still white supremacists, but like are no longer Republican, right?
They're no longer MAGA because they get like, they can't stand how unintelligent
and how cultish, how crass the MAGA movement is, right? And that's part of the reason why they
move to the liberal side of things. That's the reason why they move to the Democratic Party.
And the Democratic Party is perfectly happy to cater to these people, right? And they have
catered these people in spite of the fact that there aren't that many of them, right?
This is not a real constituency. And the Democrats have lost because they've catered
to the never Trump Republicans. But that's the reason why I think she's like
flailing around because she realizes that she's going to be the one that has to concede
to my worldview. She has to come to my side of things, right? But she's only used to a lifetime of
Democrats catering to her expectations or her being totally in line with the
Republicans until Donald Trump becomes rude for this that she finds disgusting.
Sam Cedar credits Tim for being less aggro. On those shows, you also expressed your bewilderment
about their relentless obsessive GOP frame-to-tax on Obdolose at primary surrogate, so perhaps
my opinion, A, below of ignorant supplies, regardless your ex-followers seem to be doing
the heavy lifting in the replies below.
This part about Sarah Nier, wanting Obdolose to lose is just a lie. I have discussed this
very thing with them on my show. We have disagreed and argued about tactics, but they're clear
about the need to defeat Rogers. This fictional straw woman exists in your head only, Sam Cedar.
I said, I think the question is, why are they constantly aiding the Republican strategy with
my Abdul Association instead of helping reframe the combo to a place of sanity?
Like what the president is doing to gas prices if they truly want Abdul to win?
You had this question as well. And he said, I think that would be a fair question of you and
Kamala in 2024. And I defend you on that count. They want Abdul to win. Take yes for the answer.
I don't think it's that I think this is a disingenuous way to try and reframe the argument
Because my criticisms of Kamala Harris, which I am very open about and I said it over and over again
Revolved around the fact that she was communicating as
a a you know as a as a candidate that was going to continue Joe Biden's
Agenda this was unbelievably unfavorable. It was wrong and that's part of the reason why she lost a big part of the reason
why she lost. She didn't drop the anchor around her neck. That was Joe Biden's presidency.
Okay? She was at odds with the base. I'm not. They are. That's the problem. You know, simply
put, I was right. They're wrong. They were wrong, and they're still wrong. That's the
issue. I think deep down inside Tim Miller understands this, and that's precisely the
reason why he has communicated this position to Sarah Longwell on numerous occasions, saying
Hassan is credibility on the Israel side. Hassan is credibility on Medicare for all.
Our people don't. So when we attack Hassan, it's seen as an attack against Abdul's credibility
on the issue of Palestine. It's seen as an attack against Abdul's credibility as a champion
for Medicare for all. We are getting pushed out of the party. You're pushing Hassan further
and further into the hands of the base. Something along those lines was uttered when Tim Miller
and Sarah Longwell were talking about this, right? That's the problem. They don't see it.
they don't recognize it, they don't understand it.
I appreciated the Never Trump Republicans trying to peel themselves off the MAGA couple.
Let's be real, they're still Republicans. They're actual policy ideas outside of not
Trump or still dog shit. Heading into the midterms, Democrats are finally drawing a
real litmus test and a ton of these centers or Never Trump Republicans are going to flunk
it hard. No more shrugging off endless weapons. Israel ignoring Palestine or half-assing affordable
housing or Medicare for all. That's the line in the sand. If you really want to win elections,
It's time to really listen to the people Americans eyes are open is a good take all the way back in April because it's correct
And it's still correct
Yeah from what I've seen long while is actually chilled out on this stuff somewhat but Tim including near in this pushback is
Ludacris yeah, that's odd near a tweets about L sad nearly every other day and the closest thing I could find to support was I hope he
Wins tucked inside and I told you so about why he might lose
She's doing an incredible impression of someone who doesn't want him to win
Yeah, that's why I said Sarah Longwell. I think listen to Tim. I think Sarah Longwell
listen to Tim. I have my disagreements with Bulwark. But I think Sarah Longwell listen
to Tim Miller and eased up on Abdul. Having said that near attended never did your lighting
was so much better back then. Okay, calm down. We'll fix the lighting after today's stream
is over. I had to get started on the broadcast early. Okay?
Pretty funny that Nira's sounding like Mike Rogers, huh? Exactly. I wish I could retweet this
a million times. Could LSAT cost Democrats Michigan? I wish I could retweet this a million times,
given all the facts in it. But the most important out of this is the left thinks the center left
their sellouts when actually they're trying to just win elections by attracting indies to beat
the fascist. I hope LSAT wins and with this environment, you absolutely should walk away
with it. But all of us, warning in the primaries that he'd have a tougher time in the general,
weren't sellouts, we were experienced. So here's the issue with Neera Tandon. Okay?
This is at the heart of her commentary. If this argument fails, Neera Tandon is out of a fucking
job. Okay? Neera Tandon is out of a job. If Abdel Al-Said, who has not pivoted to the center
to win over these, uh, these supposed moderate voters, that Neera Tandon claims she knows very
well. If Abdel El Sayed wins them over and wins the election, this is going to be a giant problem.
Or if Abdel El Sayed doesn't win over these mythical moderates, because maybe they exist
and they didn't want to vote, and maybe Neera Tandon's argument is correct, but wins over
other low propensity voters, for example, then again, Neera Tandon's argument falls apart.
And they can't have that. They don't want that to happen, because that's the only argument
the centres have. The only argument that the right wing of the Democratic Party have is this is
how you win elections. Because everyone, there's different priorities, right? There's the highest
priority that every single person has in the broad anti-Trump coalition and the broad coalition of
people who have voted for Democrats at any point in their lives or would likely vote for the Democrats
at any point in their lives is that they don't like Republicans. They don't want Republicans to win.
They don't want Republicans to be in power. They understand whether it's on vibes, whether it's party
loyalty, whether it's ideological, they understand that when Republicans win, the country gets worse.
Okay, I would put myself in this broad coalition as well as many of you also probably find yourself
in this broad coalition. We don't want Republicans to win. We don't like the Democrats either,
especially when centrist Democrats are running the show, especially when right-wing Democrats are a
continuation of some of the worst parts of the Republican policymaking. Having said that,
we still understand that the harm reduction theory as a theory is technically correct.
There is a longer timeline of how only running on harm reduction narratives actually ends up
creating Donald Trump, which many more Americans are finally coming to recognize as the reality,
right? If Democrats are only running on harm reduction narratives, then they're less
predisposed with building a real strong base of support, a policy agenda that will dramatically
restructure American society for the better, and therefore their weaker, therefore their more
conciliatory to the right-wing positions, and eventually that causes the Overton window to
shift dramatically to the right, and that's how you arrive at someone like Donald Trump.
This is what we believe. This is also part of the reason why we don't like the harm reduction
narrative as the only reliable way to win over votes, and we see it as being unbelievably
conciliatory to the right-wing position down the line as the Overton window shifts.
In any case,
yeah, your critique was not knifing Harris when Protos were literally the dem convention,
when she was chosen to run, it's just observation. If you were doing what Nira did, you'd be saying
she's a radical communist and adopt right-wing framing the dog pile on her. Yes. I wasn't
elevating the salience of right-wing narratives. I wasn't legitimizing right-wing narratives on
Kamala Harris. I wasn't saying like, oh, price checks are actually bad because it's communism,
and Kamala Harris wants to do Venezuela. I was saying it's good that she has that policy. She
she should hit that policy harder.
There were elements of Kamala Harris's campaign
that I actually appreciated.
She threw all of that in the fire and pushed for
a lot of the things that the near attenders of the world
and a lot of things that the corporate back lobbyists
of the world were pushing for.
And that's part of the reason why she lost.
But yeah, there's a there's a it's interesting and maybe someone will make a super cut of
this but like near attendants criticism of Abdul al-sayed are damn near identical to
Mike Rogers' criticisms of Abdul al-sayed near attendant has gone as far as to retweet
Laura Loomer for example, when Laura Loomer was claiming that I Hassan piker a Muslim
Muslim Turkish American were actually engaging in Islamic taqiyyah, which is a horribly Islamophobic horribly racist mentality to have the idea that every Muslim is secretly lying every Muslim is secretly
Secretly lying in an effort to dupe the non Muslims to win power and to ultimately bring about like whatever they think Sharia law is
Hey, he's just completely dishonest, which is you know the job of a campaign to try to expose this
He's been for 18 months just telling people everything's fine
Israel is bad and by the way, there'll be more money in your pocket.
This is the guy who wants to raise working family taxes five times, five times, to pay
for all of the free stuff that he's promising.
We can't afford Abdul.
He's too risky for Michigan.
And so what we're trying to do, Sean, is get out there and tell people just how extreme
he is.
This is the guy that said his home is Egypt, who claimed he was an Egyptian citizen.
said that the best humanity he's seen is in Canada, not in Michigan. And he says, if you
want to make it in America, maybe you should move to Canada. This is the guy that wants
to represent Michigan and America in the United States Senate. And by the way, he's just completely
dishonest, which is, you know,
Yeah. I mean, this is a way to try and harp on the fact that like Abdul is not real. He's
not a real Michigander. He's not born and bred. He's actually an outsider. He's actually an America
hater. He's actually Egyptian. It's purely racist. And the reason why he's saying that is because he
wants to win this race, um, and partially because he's serviled to the needs of Israel in the same
way that fucking near attended is, right? But yeah, Eli Clifton, uh, who, uh, is a senior advisor at
Quincy Institute, who co-authored Israel's Lobby American, the grip of foreign power.
He's going to be on the show in a little bit when he, in a couple weeks when he's in Los Angeles.
He said, my 2026 bingo card didn't include an irritant endorsing the anti-semitic dual loyalty
trope by equating donors with ties to Israel to Jewish money. But here we are, apparently,
half a Silicon Valley and all American weapons firms are now the collective Jew,
Shocking anti-Semitism from someone who should know better.
Assam Pyger's career was launched by mega Jewish Zionist Hollywood agent,
Ari Emanuel. Stop gaslighting us, you're controlled opposition, the Goiom are waking up. That's awesome.
Yeah, yelling at Eli Clifton at fucking Quincy Institute is, is insane.
This is this is what I wish people would do less of okay, like this is
This is schizo maxing vagabond. Okay
You have given yourself brain damage where you just I think
You you literally
Personally cannot comprehend that the Jewish anti Zionists or Jews were critical of Israel
Exist you just decided no you're doing vulgar
ethnic tribalism in the exact same way that anti-Semites do. I thought it was
Morris Katz who was controlling you. Yeah, yeah, I know. Very funny stuff overall.
Thank you what Kami says for the 50 tier one gift subs. Is Quincy Institute
left-wing? Quincy Institute is probably, look, I don't always agree with Quincy
Institute, but it's closest to my values as far as American foreign policy. It's
the most like, acceptable, Quincy Institute is the most acceptable anti interventionist
thing to that's that operates inside of Washington, D.C. I'm a Jew and verily enjoy the stream.
John Brown tenorite thinking with the 15 give the subs. Anyway, wait, man, I'm shown almost
Wait, what the fuck a metal retractable screen weighing several dozen kilos crashes a few centimeters from Jean-Luc Monachon as he was heading
To an interview for a political stunt by the crash he clung to a table for giving his interview a few minutes later witnesses saw it
This is a sign of destiny. He's gonna win the presidential election one of them quipped
Go protect him at all costs protect Jean-Luc Monachon at all costs
That is the third time
Yeah, Abdul Al Sayed had an interview with Cooke Todd where he brought up Bill Maher
and he said Bill Maher is at Comedy Central and he's not, he's at HBO.
But yeah, and then we'll hear what Bill Maher had to say about Abdul Al Sayed.
So look, if somebody wants to go on Joe Rogan, Joe Rogan has, you know, platform vaccine
deniers, he's engaged in vaccine denial itself, which is a very, very dangerous thing.
But you would go on the show.
I'd go on the show.
Right.
audience. Bill Maher, same story. You know the terrible things Bill Maher has said about
people like me? Terrible, awful things. Of course, there's a, we still got a show on
Comedy Central and everybody seems to be perfectly okay going on that show despite the fact that
he said deeply terrible things. But you know what else I go on that show? I go on the show.
You know why? A, I want to give people the image of watching him get his ass whipped on
his own show by a guy who prays like I do. And I'd also go on a show because I want
to convince the people who watch his show, right, that a lot of the things that he says
just not bible
anyway so of course uh... the biggest crime believes of all time immediately
uh... said always a dangerous gary muslim he wants to be bill marry so
aggressive he's so violent right
in any case uh... here's bill marr responding to that uh... attack i guess
i saw in the news today that l say it in michigan says he would do my show
though he doesn't like the way i talk about
people like him. It's not people like you. I would love to have you on, sir, by the way.
And I hope we can make that happen. I talk about Islam. It's never personal and it's
never about race. It's about ideas. Oh my God. I'm not racist. Islam is a religion,
not race. I'm not bigoted. And then he will just like fucking spit out pure bile. Okay.
Yeah, oh my god, it's about Islam. It's about Islam
Yeah, look, we know exactly what this is we've heard it a million times over oh, it's not
It's not about race. It's not about black people as a race. I don't believe that they're inferior
I just said their culture is inferior, right? Like that is the same exact argument
Okay, it's the same exact fucking argument. We know what it is of course is racism
Yeah, it's not about you. It's not about your skin color. It's about the ideas you demonstrate, right?
Like, this is what... This is the racist credo, okay? And these people, obviously, as the permission structure expands,
will get more overt in their racist attitude, right? It's the... It's the civil country club racism.
Yes, it's not. It's not about... It's the rap music. It's the culture. It's the culture. It's not
the genetic inferiority. I'm not a, I'm not a vulgar race. I'm a polite racist, right?
That's what races do. We know that, right? And that's precisely what Bill Maher's
doing here with Islam. Islam is just a set of ideas. It's like, no dumbass, it's
your interpretation of these set of ideas. That is where the problem is
coming from. You personally think that every Muslim is representative of this
like unbelievably conservative estimation that you have designated the entirety of the, you know,
billions of people who believe in Islam. That's the problem. You're generalizing.
Religion is an opinion. That's all religion is. A group of thoughts that form an opinion of something.
I have different views on what, you know, how women should be treated and things like that.
Like, the idea that Abdul El Sayed does not believe in, the idea that Abdul El Sayed does
not believe in like a pluralistic democracy, because he's Muslim, like that's fucking racist,
you animal. That's the point. That is the point. That's what we are saying when we say you're
being fucking racist. Also, it is kind of funny for Mr. Religulous to constantly harp
on how Israel belongs to the chosen sons of God, because the Bible said so, because he
does do that. That is his argument all the time.
We will discuss. I hope I help you accept our invitation.
I saw on the.
Yeah.
Um, there's also a little bit of a sigh up going on with obdolos I had that I am somewhat worried about.
Okay.
I was listening to the interview and unfortunately, he got, you know, somewhat of a he got clipped
in a way that makes it seem like he is inconsistent on this issue that he has been outright consistent
on. This obviously comes as a sequence of Hassan Piker, disavowals, right? I'm just telling you
like this is what I am seeing on the timeline and also the Kamala Harris campaign stop that he did
and it's making people on Twitter increasingly agitated and it's making them think like Abdullah
is like giving up on Palestine. He's moderating on his support for the Palestinians when he doesn't need to, right?
And I'm obviously going to address some of these concerns. But before I do that, I want to show the Clash Report clip that was very specific, right?
42 seconds. I don't think Abdullah said was like moderating at all. Okay, he was not moderating at all. He or he wasn't like betraying his, his, um,
His values here. He wasn't betraying his principal stance on this issue. Okay
But unfortunately people only saw one clip of this
Okay
And paired up with the fact that he's like, oh, Hasan has said, you know, condemnable
things.
And also on top of that, the campaign stop that he did with Kamala Harris, unfortunately,
this is causing a lot of people on the anti-Zionist flank on Twitter to say that he is like betraying,
his his quite reasonable position on Palestine right so here let's just watch
the clip on its own and then which I don't even think he says anything like
unfavorable or unsavory here I think he's like perfectly reasonable but then
people misunderstood what he was saying let's see everybody's gonna agree with
me I get it and I also understand on both the sides of this debate we're also
of dealing with a lot of trauma, a lot of trauma. I understand that for a lot of Jewish Americans
there's the trauma of the Holocaust and the need to have a refuge. I understand that.
And I also understand that for a lot of Palestinian Americans and Palestinians everywhere,
there's the trauma of the Nachba and the great displacement of people told that they were just
going to be able to come home in a couple of days, never ever to be able to go back. We've got to be
able to create the circumstances within which both of these deeply traumatized people can
have a conversation built on principle. To me, the answer has to be principle. It has to be. No,
not everybody is going to agree with me. So, he says, this question, of course, was directed at,
like where people are coming from in America, right? This was an example of what you said.
Abdul Al-Said is parroting Zionist talking boys by framing Zionist feelings to be in
trauma response. The Holocaust Zionist colonization began in earnest as early as the 80s. It is the
idea that the colon is a reaction to genocide or raises decades of violence and planning.
Okay. I think people think he's like doing a heel turn. He's not. Okay. He's not.
especially because the broader point that he's addressing
is why american jews feel some type of way
okay
he's not validating the position he's just saying this is where it comes from
okay
a forty-second even drop site who is normally a drop site is a lot more
critical of obdul and a lot more critical of even try jackson comes out
and says a forty-second clip of michigan democratic senate nominee obdl said
discussing
holocaust and not but trauma
is drawing fire online it's the tail end of a much longer answer
on the Ezra Klein show in which he calls Israel's actions in Gaza a genocide.
Here's some context. The clip leaves out moments before the clip remarks.
Elsad said the U.S. shouldn't be funding this military or running cover for the actions of
this particular government, which at the minimum were war crimes and at the maximum were genocide
in the courts of law. Earlier in the interview, he tells Klein Israel did a genocide in Gaza,
called it's nearly six decade long occupation and apartheid and said our country is subsidizing
genocide. The clip below his comments on trauma follows him acknowledging that not everyone
One is going to agree with me on ending US support for Israel's crimes.
Online critics have objected to Al-Sayed setting the trauma of the Holocaust and the Nakba
side by side, arguing it implies the symmetry between the two sides, or it's being used
to explain Israel's genocide in Gaza.
However, a few minutes earlier in the same exchange, Al-Sayed emphasized the deep power
imbalance between Israelis and Palestinians.
He also did not invoke either trauma to excuse or explain Israel's conduct in Gaza in the
clipped exchange, which he said amounted to genocide.
So I'll say I was answering a question about Americans, right?
So let's start here.
Your primary open this year was Israel and Gaza.
And so I want to just start with a very open-ended question, which is in your view.
By the way, a lot of people were praising Ezra for not talking about me in this conversation,
but this is the space where Ezra is supposed to be like more favorable and less critical
about an affiliation that Abdul has with me.
I this is the one guy who should have actually brought it up and not all of the other people who who let it fucking hang as a
As a as a diss to Abdul as a way to attack Abdul al-sayed
Especially considering that Ezra wrote that piece about how I'm not a Jew hater
In the month of April when these attacks were first being launched you
What should America's position?
towards Israel, towards Palestinians. It should be the same approach that we should
take to all other countries. And our approach, I mean, go back to the post-World War two
era. We fought this terrible war. Ezra's disavow you, though, brother. He literally
wrote a whole ass article. He wrote a whole ass article out of nowhere in the New York
times in the opinion editorial to be like, Hassan Piker is not a Jew hater, we have
disagreements on the issue of Israel, but it doesn't matter at the end of the day calling
him a Jew hater is idiotic because then you're, you're basically legitimizing actual, actual
Jew haters, actual anti-Semites.
i have already talked about the common Harris uh... thing uh... in the past and
i will i guess uh... repeated one more time
opt to well said is having a harder time due to uh... the the uh... primary
okay
opt to well said is having a harder time
due to a contentious primary
certain voters that normally vote
for the democratic party.
And by certain voters, I mean black voters, okay?
He's having a hard time with Jewish voters in Oakland
because of his position on Israel,
or at least some Jewish voters in Oakland
because of his position on Israel.
He's having a harder time drawing support from black voters
in an effort to get more support from black voters
who partially feel some type of way about Abdullah Said
because they think that the Arab voters
Dearborn Michigan voted for Donald Trump and are responsible for Donald Trump's victory.
He is trying to address that directly by literally going alongside Kamala Harris
to black communities and campaigning alongside Kamala Harris. I think it is a very targeted,
very deliberate and ultimately good idea to campaign with Kamala Harris. This doesn't mean
Kamala Harris was broadly popular in the state of Michigan. Obviously, Kamala Harris lost the
state of Michigan to Donald Trump. But Kamala Harris is still very popular with older Black
voters, specifically Black women, which have to come out and have to turn out for Abulal said as
well. Okay. Now, the other side of the story, the other side of the story that I think a lot is,
people are not understanding is part of the reason why
Abdul Al Sayed is unpopular with or less popular black voters than, as you can see in this poll,
Benson is, okay, Benson is 92 to 1. Okay, this is from the New York Times, Siena poll.
Benson is at 92% with a black vote, Abdul is at 76%. It doesn't mean he's going to lose, but obviously, but obviously, it would be more beneficial if he also had 92%. It's that simple, okay?
Brother, they won't ever vote for a poll again. I don't think black people love
Kamala. That's such a small minority. I get that it's a strategy, but it's not
real. No, I know. I know.
For Abdel El Sayed, the campaign strategy is simple. He knows that he has enough
of a reputation with young voters with the youth vote, as you can see here as well, he
is outperforming Jocelyn Benson with the youth vote by insane margins, 82% to 11 for the
18 to 29, for the 30 to 44, it's 57 to 36, right? For him, and for those who don't know,
this is the New York Times, Santa Paul looked at Benson versus John James, the Republican,
the governor in the governor's race, and Abdul Osaid versus Mike Rogers in the Senate race.
They're on the same ticket. They're both Democrats. Jocelyn Benson is running for governor. Abdul
Osaid is running as the Democratic candidate for Senate. And there's an inconsistency on
this ticket. This inconsistency, the closer Abdul Osaid gets the Benson's percentages
on black voters overall, the easier his shot will be to win. The higher his margin of victory
will be
black voters of a very high favorability towards common hairs especially
older voters is also the whole dynamic of some democrats in michigan blaming
arab and muslim voters for her losing in michigan along with existing
community racial tensions in metro detroit so him campaigning was only
harris is smart
all bomb would be the knockout punch doses cloud district enjoyer i agree
with you one hundred percent
and wholeheartedly you might not agree
but i'm describing the thought
uh... that is going into this campaign stop
okay
I don't know why chatters, like there's gotta be, there's gotta be more black chatters in
this community, right?
That have talked to their aunts and uncles and grandparents who will tell you first hand,
even if it's wrong, even if it's not correct, there is this attitude that Kamala Harris
lost because she was a black woman, and there is resentment as a consequence of that, okay?
is real resentment. Black voters are the base of the Democratic Party, and they feel as though
their votes are being taken for granted. Okay? They feel as though their votes are being taken
for a fucking granted, especially older black voters. Younger black voters don't give a shit,
they love Abdul. Okay? Part of the reason why Benson is doing, you know, polling very well,
exceptionally well with black voters is because she also has a crazy long resume working on
civil rights and inequalities in and around the state and also around the United States of America.
Josson Benson's journey to Michigan governor's race began with Viola Luiso, a mother from Detroit
who set out for Selma in the March of 1965 to join the fight for voting rights. She worked for the
SPLC NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund. Okay?
To chat, remember how Democrats were freaking out and being racist towards
Latinos after the election because they blamed them for Trump winning in
Michigan? That was people blaming Arabs and Muslims because of massive swing in
Dearborn and Hamtramik. Yes.
So that's why there is this disparity where Abdul is 76 to 13 whereas Benson is 92 to 1.
The closer we get those numbers up to like 90%, the easier of a time Abdul al-sayed will
have.
Okay?
Wouldn't you say it's Islamophobic to be madmen on all of the eyes of your group of
people for being rightly anti-genocide?
Yes, yes, it is.
It is bigoted.
Yes, there is bigotry.
yes it's not this is correct but it doesn't matter okay just like Abdul Rahman
Muhammad El Sayed is not going to perform as well as a white woman would
with white voters it's just a thing that exists and if you want to win you have
to play around it if you want to win you have to overcome these odds it's not
impossible it is however more difficult but just because something is more
difficult doesn't mean it's impossible doesn't mean you shouldn't try to
overcome these issues, okay? In any case, that's why Abdul El Sayed did that, right?
Because some of the attacks that Mike Rogers' team has been hitting,
Some of the attacks that Mike Rogers has been hitting is specifically on the uncommitted
side where Mike Rogers has been lying over and over again and targeting black communities
by saying Abdul Al Sayed was a leader of the uncommitted movement.
Abdul Al Sayed did not endorse Kamala Harris.
So there is no better surefire way of addressing that lie than to literally appear alongside
Kamala Harris. You understand?
Oh, man, Labor, the New Yorker argues you're not important. Dude, please stop. Okay, I
know we read it already. And also not only that, but the New Yorker is literally doing
a fucking profile. So who cares? But that's it. There's a specific contingency of black
voters that feel some type of way about Abdul's background and feel as though his contributions
Kamala Harris's defeat. They think of the loss I had contributed to Kamala Harris's defeat.
They're wrong. But ultimately, they feel that way and you have to get them to no longer feel
resentful. And the best possible way to do that is by linking up, linking arms with Kamala Harris.
That's it. Terrible people. And coming out of it. And yes, to the people who say I'm just not
convinced everyone likes anyone likes Kamala, you have not been around older black women
If you think this way, okay
Straight up
It doesn't matter how we feel about it. It doesn't matter if if you're correct. Okay, that's not
That's not like what
What should opto I'll say I'd do right now to run around it with 40 less than 40 days
And and go to like Wayne county and tell the aunties that they're fucking wrong
That Kamala Harris was a bad candidate and that's why she lost should he do that?
do you think that that is the
Better way to go about it.
Like, what are we doing?
What, what are you guys arguing for?
Sometimes I just don't understand it.
The only way to overcome this without like associated with Kamala Harris is if
Barack Obama did a fucking rally in Michigan for Abdul El Sayed.
That would be the ticket.
That would be the best possible thing.
We realized that we needed to build these institutions to protect the world from having
to do this again.
And we codified these institutions by way of a system of internet.
One of the, oh, the other thing I want to say is one of the things I learned a lesson on
is that you don't have to abandon your principles, but sometimes you don't have to, you can't
constantly try to be right, especially when it comes to appealing to certain demographics.
You just can't do it. Okay. There's a right way to go about it. A right way to communicate
your values and, and the wrong way to communicate your values. Okay. It's not about like winning
the argument, it's not about being right if you're trying to coalition build, okay?
You asked for black chatters interactions with my family in Michigan. Check my logs please.
The electoral version of the social dynamic, any non-black chatter with black friends knows
there may not be many of those people in here clearly, but black people trust non-black
people are easier when other black people vouch for them. They don't even have to personally
like Kamala Dammit. They believe that racism was why she lost. Her blackness is not deniable
and to older black liberals that can be the only reason why she lost? Yes.
Me, my family in Michigan's biggest issue is literally this. The liberal anger directed at
Arab Americas in Michigan is very real among older black voters. They blame Arab Americas for
Kamala's loss. They called them races. They literally think Arab Americas were selfish,
prioritized genocide as an issue when Trump would be worse, which is again, an insane position to
have. Okay. It is literally the same shit. You're literally saying like, oh, you care about genocide,
you care about your fucking family members dying. How dare you. You should care about voting for
voting against Donald Trump instead. Okay. But, but ironically enough, those very same black voters
also literally are anti genocide themselves. Not like they're fucking pro Israel. Okay.
Again, the mind of a median American voter contains a sea of multitudes and many issues
that are directly contradictory to one another. Okay? So, you just have to try and identify
more salient elements that they care about and just hammer those elements in. That's how it works.
Yes, my interview with Simone Sanders was a perfect example of being chill about even
potentially offensive disagreements people have with you to be strategic with an audience. Some
of the stuff she said in the interview was pretty crazy, but you know the environment,
so you respond accordingly. Yes, Simone Sanders was trying to lead me down a pathway for me to come
across like an out-of-touch white guy who doesn't who's like you know yelling at a black woman
in an effort to you know in an effort to present uh to her base to the people that are watching
the the argument in a much more favorable way i didn't eat the bait i didn't i didn't run into it
at first in the past i probably would have by the way and that's why it was so successful overall
it was productive as far as the discourse goes as far as like uh where where that discourse went
Okay, and you have to do that you have to do that you have to do that
Because i'm not talking to simon in that situation and i'm not talking to my audience in that situation
i'm talking to a very different audience who's perhaps seeing me for the first time ever
Okay
fd gave you credit and said you improved your communication with this yes and there are
so many people who are literally like who don't understand what I was doing there who
think like oh dude you're you're default you you are defending like black liberal Zionists
right black liberal Zionists like you're defending them I'm not that's not what I'm saying I'm
saying that you have to you don't have to betray your principles but you can
communicate even if you're right you can communicate in a different way that is
more productive overall that was a great example of how to do it
here it's good that Hassan did as well as he did because they thought they
thought Hassan was gonna come in there and do the debate bro shit and thank
God, I got to show some love to the sign publicly for this one. Thank God he did not take debate.
He has learned some lessons. He has learned some lessons and he started to understand.
Dude, it's cynical. It sucks. It's bullshit. But you got to play that game. You can't come
across like you're saying the clips that people always use. Like, oh, I don't care about what
black people think like those clips those clips are poison okay those clips are one shotting
older black liberals who see them they go oh disguise i know what this guy is he's a
fucking racist okay even if we align 90 percent of the way okay and we do that's the irony of it all
We do. So, there is a way to navigate this space, especially when people who understand
how to galvanize their base will absolutely try to lead you into that pathway.
Bernie had a real issue with this. Back in the day, I used to be like this as well,
where I would say, like, what do you mean Medicare for all is for black people? Of course,
like black people by and large as a consequence of systematic discrimination find themselves
more likely to be below the poverty line than above it and therefore all of these like class
first issues are actually directly targeted in the black community but unfortunately if people
don't see it as that then you have to find a different way to to communicate okay
Yeah, days after these later out to the interview got a ton of videos from black leftist youtubers that were criticizing the interviews for this
Exact reason had you taken the bait they would not be on your side exactly
Exactly it would make it much more difficult for those black leftist youtubers to like
Defend my position even if we are 100% in agreement because
They are
Serving a different audience at that point and they can't come across being like I'm defending the the atta touch racist white guy as
as against the prominent black intellectuals that he's arguing against.
Stan, how black liberals move, how black liberals will weaponize identity politics
against the left and essentially black people.
He kept it real simple, kept it strategic, and he hit him with some haymakers and you
see the result, you know?
And I also appreciate, I did see the clip of him pushing back on his audience, his debate
bro audience about wanting to see blood sport in such a good way.
I was explaining this to my wife that I'm glad Hassan said this, but I cannot believe
Hassan is the one reminding us of black radical history.
That is a fucking shame.
The shame of that being the situation is so frustrating, but it's so purposeful.
And wow, like I don't know if it's better or worse that Hassan participates at the end
of the day.
But I know for a fact this is the fault of establishing media, black liberals, the black
misleaders.
You have been doing that though.
I have.
But, but this is also at the, at the heart of the matter, right?
This is why I also say black people across the board are far more progressive than white
people are.
There are polls that suggest this over and over again.
So how do we become the connective tissue and get black voters to vote for candidates
that align with their first principles, their values in general?
Because black history is very radical.
It's been whitewashed actively, but black history, by and large, is a radical history.
a socialist history, right? And I guess the simplest way to explain this is you can't
connect if you're a white person, a non-black person who is coming across aggressive when
talking to prominent black intellectuals, prominent black liberals.
Is that Hassan Piker, he's been pretty consistent, both in terms of his massive following,
in terms of his rhetoric for several years now. I think things changed when a lot of republicans
and centrist democrats. Yeah, also that's the other thing that that FD was pointing out, which is like
Like if Mark Lamont Hill or Ta-Nehisi Coates is having that conversation, that conversation
takes a very different tone, right?
Because Mark Lamont Hill is a prominent, prominent black intellectual in this country, right?
He's also anti-Zionist, Ta-Nehisi Coates, again, prominent black intellectual transformed
his ideals on American foreign policy pretty aggressively, and pretty publicly as a matter
of fact, from being favorable to Israel to being an avowed anti-Zionist. This is, and
this is a direct consequence of his personal experiences in Israel where he couldn't, he
could not avoid seeing those inconsistencies. Like, FD signifiers perspective is, the reason
These are my, these shows will have a son on rather than Chris Rab or, or Tennessee codes
or Mark Lamont Hill is because the tool of utilizing identity politics or the tool to,
to represent a, a thinker or a speaker on the show as an out of touch non black person
goes away if you're talking to a black person.
This kind of stuff still very much matters.
As I always explain, as I always explain to you,
you don't organize around an audience that you want. You organize around the masses, right? You
can't just assume that the mass will come to your position if you just keep hammering the same points
over and over again.
Keep growing I am a black one watching you grow and progress as Afro Futurism Scholar.
Thank you.
You have noticeably made progress on this, no matter how factually correct you were.
I remember you used to get stuck and pedantically argue against these types of arguments and
come across as very combative and shrooms of just derailed you fighting people that start
calling you races over it.
Yes.
And the consequences of that would then turn into a unbelievable amounts of clips being
like, see, he's a fucking out of touch white guy.
He's an out of touch white guy.
He doesn't understand the black position.
Okay.
That's that Zoran Mandami is untouchable.
I think they decided to focus on the next biggest Muslim Middle Eastern target.
And that's a son piker.
Like, cause I'm just like, what change?
He didn't change.
I think what changes that, you know, people on the right, and frankly,
racist people in the democratic party as well needed a new target.
And he was right.
Yep.
It's true though.
That is 100% correct.
a twitch streamer, a rabble browser to a higher standard than the president of the United States
of America. You are currently one of the most liked comments on that post. You wrote, he's right.
I am. Why is he right? I really don't know what Simone and Eugene thought they were doing.
But Hassan Piker just comes across so reasonable and grounded.
It just felt to me watching the whole interview, like they were out to like expose him.
Or like, you know, like that, like it was kind of like a, gotcha.
Like it was very, I mean, you can hear it in Simone's voice.
It's not a conversation. It's an interrogation.
They are holding a Twitch streamer.
Do you not think to be normal and talk about queer or disability politics is similar in a way?
Again, you're not wrong about record behavior, but it's completely reductive to say that any discussion is on these terms.
No, this is the same thing when I say be normal.
When I tell people not to engage in blood sport and to literally communicate in a way that doesn't portray your principles at all,
But instead is more appealing to the target audience. It's the exact same argument that I'm presenting
Do you see what I mean as the exact same argument, this is me being normal
Okay, you have to understand that be normal is a bit of a third of real
No, it's not and it doesn't have to be and it can't be do you see what I mean?
We can't fucking constantly lose our minds when someone says be normal and then people are like no
I'm going to have a pedantic conversation about like being normal. It's a my whole life is it my whole life is revolved around my whole
My my whole perspective
My whole perspective my worldview revolves around being abnormal. No, I'm saying to be queer is also normal to be
Disabled is also normal
But we also have to live that normalcy. Okay, and we have to be more agreeable
We can't be running around saying working out is is fascist eugenics. We can't be running around saying, you know
Being this genetic is is good, especially when the broad social association
With that concept is that you know, most people are going to be reminded of their worst moments in their own lives when they were ill when they were sick
We cannot rewrite certain concepts no matter how hard we try
And we certainly can't, we can't let that disagreement become the primary fixture of our politics,
because we're never going to win people over with that mentality.
Imagine trying to tell the largest of Asian leftists how to gain followers.
I mean, look, it is not, I'm not going to say like I know what I'm doing, right?
It just comes across as unbelievably anti-social and socialists have to be very social, okay?
Okay? We have to be more social.
And before people say normal has been
weaponized against queer and disabled people for a long time, it's going to be taken wrong.
You have to find a different way to explain your point. No, I don't. I don't.
That's the, that is the point. My utilization, my deployment of the term normal is the point.
We are normal. The people that literally constantly make every waking moment
argument against transgender people or against disabled people are not. We are normal, but we
will never actually address that point. We will never actually showcase that that is the
point, is a normal part of existence. Being queer, being disabled is a normal part of existence.
We will never be able to get that point across, even though it is literally the truth.
If we are constantly saying, no, we're not normal, we're not moderates. We're not moderates on this
stuff. The opposition is you're just pushing people that are in the fucking margins away for no reason.
And the deployment of the term normal is deliberate because everyone thinks they're normal. That's why
I'm doing that.
I've also directly talked about, like, the greatest antidote, at least from what I've
heard from a lot of trans people.
The greatest antidote to transphobia is just being a normal, cool co-worker, being normal,
chill and cool as a trans person.
When you establish a personal connection with people, knowing full well that they have these
social hang-ups as a consequence of social conditioning, it literally cuts away at all
of the propaganda that they're inundated with. Okay? That's the problem.
What I'm saying is Normies will see it in that way and that you don't mean it. Wait, what?
It's ironic because yeah, this is not changed. Like, this has been something that I have
agitated for something that I have pushed for literally for the past decade.
It is, it is, like if you're in this community and you enjoy this community, you're actually,
you're actually eating off of that principle stance that I've had.
You're actually benefiting from that. If you enjoy this community and you recognize it as a,
as a relatively safe space, for example, for queer people, for disabled people, that like that is
because I have maintained this position and have been able to bring newcomers into the, uh, into
the fold and have slowly retooled their, their, uh, social conditioning piece by piece as they've
become, you know, comrades and allies who fight alongside you, right? So many people who do not
know very many trans recruit people in real life genuinely think every trans person is like the
the secular hijabi inspired accessory person the unpatched meta is to show them that that's
not true. Yes. It gives us a great opportunity to cut away. Okay. It gives us a great opportunity
to cut away at the preconceived notions that people have when you don't actually when you
when that's a lie, and this is objectively a lie, right?
You do know that that,
you do know that word and the way you say it
is triggering trauma in people who have to hear that word,
their whole life is a slur against them,
you cannot reclaim it.
Brother, this is what I mean, or sister, or emperor,
this is what I mean, this is what I mean.
We can't, you can't say normal is a slur. That's a crazy point to fucking deliver.
Okay, and everything can't turn into a struggle session. This makes us like,
close your eyes for a second and just imagine
like a, I don't know, like a zoomer, like a Jason the Ween watcher, who saw Jason the Ween be like,
oh, Anka's getting attacked by Benjamin Denial. He tunes into the fucking broadcast and the first
think his first introduction to this community is someone sincerely saying well to say normal
is a slur and it triggers trauma in us. Like that's great. It's like we are arguing on like the
11th layer of I guess what is now perceived to be leftism. Okay. Yeah. I mean, this is a classic,
Matt. This is a classic Matt Crisman clip about disability politics and how it's like deployed
in modern politics. Obviously, like Matt is, you know, as he will say, he's like, he's like,
I'm way more disabled than half of the people that are, you know, reading it as like advocating
for it.
I'm hard on disability politics, but well, I'll end on that one.
I won't say too much.
I don't want to, I mean, anyone who listens to this understands, they're not going to
get canceled.
I just don't want to insult people.
But I do think that a lot of disability politics is people desperately seeking a subaltern
status. And I say that as somebody who is, I'm sorry, way more disabled than many of
the people who I see make it the fulcrum of their political identity. You know, like they
pitch it as like, well, I have to be the defender, you know, because of how of the
trauma that my life has been trying to be different, disabled in this.
One other thing I got to mention is like the reason why I think these conversations are
actually healthy and we have to have them is because look we are organizing in some respects on the
internet and a lot of people don't get to see the real world and this is their only like gateway
for some people to to hear perspectives that they are uh not maybe not seeing in the real world so
like it's important for them to hear this from a person that they have uh trusted right it's
It's important for them to hear this from a person that's
communicating, not from a place of hatred or anger or resentment,
but instead to try to reroute the conversations
into a more productive place.
Country.
That's like, ah, not really.
And you can't argue that you're part of a community,
because due to the incredible variety of what
it counts to be disabled, I mean, my god,
by certain definitions, you could say everybody
is fucking disabled in one way or another,
that there is no community to speak for.
I sure as shit don't feel like I'm part of some community.
And yeah, it's like it does feel...
Saying be normal makes you sound like MAGA.
Ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha.
It's really funny because I speak fluent Haganese all the time, right?
When I'm talking about like law and order, for example, I'll always be like these guys
need to do their fucking jobs.
need to do law and order and we need to hold people criminals accountable and the problem
is society doesn't hold the actual powerful criminals accountable and simply makes a much
bigger fuss about those who are caught doing minor crimes, victims of circumstances, things
of that nature. That is taking a principled position on criminal justice reform and flipping
it to use, uh, you know, Hoganese. Okay. The argument didn't shift, but the way you're
communicating around it did. And you, when you say normal makes you saying be normal
makes you sound like MAGA are basically saying the most abnormal force in American politics,
people who literally spend a lifetime constantly fucking chirping about transgender people
that come across as repulsive to average folks in the real world.
Now they're normal by your estimation.
They're not. They're fucking not.
Why? Why do you feel like you need to seed ground?
Is your calm autistic, bro?
Because what the fuck is this, son?
I mean, there are people.
There are people that that, yes,
genuinely feel this way and I'm trying to get them to fucking be normal.
Mac is not normal. They're a fucking cult
There are races called that spends every week
They got eight dollar gas and they're like well, it's actually worth it cuz strange gender athletes don't get to participate in NC
Double-a. I'll never watch women's sports, but that's what I care about. It's the thing that I get right. You think that's fucking normal
What are you psychotic?
What have you lost your fucking mind to give them to see territory and to say like
Normal is is is what MAGA thinks is the most psychotic fucking thing that I've ever heard in my life
They're abnormal they're fucking freaks
Why are you so desperate to present yourself as a freak and to say no they're the normal ones
What do you mean leftistly doing this it doesn't make any sense?
It doesn't. It especially doesn't make sense because by and large the average American
person literally thinks, or rather, here let me use the correct terminology, by and large
the average American person now understands that MAGA is a far graver threat to their
existence, then radical transgender disability activists, okay? They get it. So why are you
now looking at that mass recognition and going, no, no, this is, this, we need to get keep
it. We need to, we need to murder this movement at the altar of some false sense of purity.
You got to rid yourself of that mentality instantly, okay?
I feel like it's an online phenomenon, more than any expression of the real experience
of people.
Like, yeah, obviously, you know, capitalism is a war with anybody who is not able to fit
as a cog within it.
That's true.
Yes, read Calabanda Witch and all that.
But as with most things, the way to fight that is to fight capitalism.
And trying to play gotcha with people for discriminating against your disability of whichever
one you have is a recipe for the opposite of that.
It's really just a way for you to be the center of attention and for you to have a cudgel
against other people.
Yeah. I mean, it's a classic take. It's just funny when I see someone like Alex Station
post this because they are viciously not that in many instances, or at least they've
turned into someone who doesn't, because this is from 2024, right? This is like Alex Station
I feel like their attitude has changed quite a bit.
I feel like that is where we are now.
Everyone is not doing it on purpose. There's nothing else to do.
So focused on ourselves as the only point of meaning in the world,
that we're compelled to relate everything to ourselves.
And that means makes all communication an interaction of fucking mind field.
But then again, maybe I'm just an Uncle Tom of disabled people.
Maybe I'm a...
People are asking to communicate differently.
Yeah, I'm a communicator.
The reason why I'm communicating the way that I am is because I know what I'm doing.
at the end of the day like I'm doing this because it's it's working it's been working and it will continue to work
I'm pleased. I'm trying to also walk you through my my mentality on why I believe it's working
I'm also showing you this that these communities exist. This is proof that it's working
But a lot of people think all the time that
Their way is the right way to do it and I'm not a stranger to people telling me like you are impure
You don't know what you're doing. You should listen to me instead. My entire career has been
People telling me that I used to
Here's the thing when I have 35 people when the 36 person showed up there were 35 people in the chest saying we don't want this 36
Person in here when I had 300 people it was the same
This community has gone through waves and waves of growth and throughout those periods of growth
There's always been people who have told me abandon some of your principles
Abandon your principles on on how you believe everyone can be rehabilitated. Some people are just purely evil
You cannot win them over. You should just push them away
You're pushing me away by not pushing those people away
Some people have actually abandoned this community as a consequence of that and have never returned some people have abandoned this community and decided
I am their primary archvillain. This has happened. This will continue to happen
Okay, but if you've been around for a long enough time, you probably have already
Understood what I'm about and how I choose to to build this community and part of that is to be
Endlessly accepting of people who are even bigoted at times with the understanding that they can change their mentality
Some will never change their mentality and they will ultimately get banned or they will leave
But you win more people over this way. Okay, this is how you win him over
Be principled be bold be brave, but also be accepting of different viewpoints
My favorite type of person is the is the type of person that you know will constantly come back in
To the community after yelling and we'll just like
We'll try to do their very best to consistently make the community smaller, not larger, right?
And it's like, it's just, it's very strange, it's a strange phenomenon, but there are people who
we purge, right? But they come back over and over again, because they can't get enough of it, right?
They always want to, they always want to be a part of this larger community, this broader movement,
but they also wanted to operate the way that they wanted to operate, right?
In any case,
these are the lines that I have drawn for many years and I will continue to push it.
This is the Jordan Peterson of disingenuous arguments. He's exactly the type to demand an
explanation of what you mean by be normal in order to grind any productive conversation
to a complete halt so he never has to investigate his beliefs.
No, I think it's valid and worthwhile to explain the position as to why I say and even choose
deliberately the term normal.
Anyway, we've drifted far from the original subject which is as I see it is that many
Many people don't feel safe with a be normal talk.
Yeah, that's insane.
And again, it is also this back and forth conversation
that's spanned across the last 35 minutes to 45 minutes
is exactly why nothing gets done, ironically enough.
Sometimes I'll have that conversation,
this was one of those moments,
and we're now moving on, right?
A case.
You won't even fucking address the article being fucking slander, even though the same
shit happens to you.
Wait, what?
You're not the fucking king of socialism, or people fucking understand solidarity, even
though you piss us the fuck off, sometimes we understand the good you do, asshole.
You won't even address the article being slander, even though the same should happen to you.
What are you saying?
Oh my god, I can't believe we're still on this.
Like, I'm not...
Our community should expect more details in the future.
Support community member cash app.
Oh my god, they put the cash app of the person.
away nor this is just after he said he's glad you weren't doubling down he was
right I don't think you compromise your positions in any way with that interview
I think there's an element of stubbornness yes but this has been my
okay guys I need you to understand something you're on the other side of
this argument. Okay, that's the problem. Okay. I am never going to, I'm never going to be
a person that is like, I'm never one of those people that's like, no, it's actually good.
We're winning more people over by being unnecessarily antagonistic. Okay. You think I'm being antagonistic
to you in particular, okay, and you're derailing the stream to address personal grievances
and personal misunderstanding. You're so weird, bro. Yeah, it's just funny because Afro-Nuch is
right. We've had this exact stun lock two to three times a year since you started watching
me and it happens all the time. Don't attack those people who have criticisms, by the way.
I don't want you to attack those people, right?
It's fine.
Our community should expect more details
of the who's day we'd need to address the safety
of the community itself.
Stop harassing soy nor it is neither productive,
progressive nor valiant to attack
and harass a black patron.
He has been a collaborator and performer
of the last ditch for a while and deserves to speak
his mind about accountability and repair from the bar.
There are so many misconceptions due to the disorganization
of the Globes article.
He did not call for a shutdown nor did he call
for the bar to be firebombed. Further, he did not disparage the owner for being homeless.
As a result of this abysmal journalism, so has been getting additional threats, slurs
and harassment. And now he is being reported to the police over something he did not do.
This is not supporting us at last day. She said as a anti-blackness hysteria.
I don't understand why everything turns to gets tuned up to a million.
The globe article did not say so one so a noir was the one who did the firebombing tweet.
It was the the them per ace.
It gives you love pressing people's buttons and so a nor is still calling the owner evil.
This is what I mean, dude.
There is like, look, look, good luck to the last ditch bar.
I want them to be successful.
I want them to thrive.
I want them to create a safe space of their own making for all of its community members.
But if you think that this is how I would move, okay, you're just wrong.
I've never moved this way, and I will never move this way.
You feel me?
Like, that's just not...
Like that is...
You're being maximally accommodating, which is making...
Which is basically getting in the way of you organizing adequately.
But I'm on the outside, so, you know, there's no, our character is a shred of villain.
How do you listen to a woman cry because she's homeless and then go, wow, you're white day.
Them tears are offensive and they still try to ask people to give you money.
Yeah.
This is a classic case of like one mini boss, one narcissistic mini boss basically running
every running the show from the outside.
No investment whatsoever.
We've seen it.
this be organizing poison in so many different communities, so many different communities
that want to be as accommodating as possible. Okay. The CIA used to deliberately uses a
method of infiltration. Okay. And subversion. It is quite literally a CIA tactic. Okay.
unbelievable. Nowadays, you don't even need Cointel Pro to deliberately do this,
because unfortunately we do it to ourselves, okay?
There needs to be a line drawn between accommodation and enabling.
Who's to say that tactic ever stopped though?
I don't even think they need to do it.
I think American exceptionalism has taken root in the minds of so many and they've internalized
it.
It's the same principle behind like people go and that's a champagne socialist.
That's fake.
You know, it's like you are literally cutting away.
You are straight forwardly saying that no one in your movement can come from a different
wealth category for no reason.
Okay, for no reason. Everyone can be a socialist. Obviously, there's lines that you will draw if
someone is like, you know, a wealthy billionaire CEO or elitist. I feel like if they were to become
a socialist, they would probably dramatically restructure their finances, right? But the whole
point of socialism is that it is an ideology. It's a way to reorganize our economy, okay?
And it's ironic because, you know, the manifesto was literally written by a factory owner.
Engels co-authored alongside Karl Marx.
And most revolutionaries come from upper middle class backgrounds.
there's a there's a there's a there's a idea that like it can you know the base of the movement
the rank and filers are of a proletarian nature and yet it is always there's never been a historical
socialist revolution that has been successful that also did not feature intelligentsia also did not
feature, people who came from more comfortable beginnings. Yes, Fidel Castro is a great example
of this. Che Guevara is another example of this.
Even Mao Zedong was still from a peasant background, but his father owned land. He
He was a landowning peasant. Lenin as well. Lenin's dad was literally the Tsar's chef, okay?
He was in the cadre of elites in Tsar's Russia.
Lenin's brother, of course, tried to assassinate the Tsar and was punished for it.
But regardless, that's just how it goes. Lenin's father literally was the chef.
A terrible people.
And coming out of it, we realized that we needed to build these institutions to protect
the world from having to do this again.
And we codified these institutions by way of a system of international law.
And then we emerged as the global hegemon and then proceeded when it was in our own
in real-politique interest to violate those rules.
But we still expect everyone else to play by the rules of the international order.
And my foreign policy views are very simple.
I just think we should be the first among equals to enforce international law.
I would argue that Israel is the greatest outlier when it comes to the behavior of the
government of Israel, relative to the approbation you would expect them to get, versus what
they actually get. They've been able to sustain a apartheid system, which is the only thing
you can call sustained, nearly six decade long, occupation of a people in Gaza and the
West Bank. They did a genocide in Gaza. They led us into a war. Benjamin Netanyahu came
to the situation room, made the argument for a war. He finally had a dupe big enough who
is willing to do it. But think about war aims. We had no clear war aims for that war. Israel
had clear war aims. And one of those big war aims seems to be setting up for the annexation
of Southern Lebanon. And we do all of this, and all of this has been done. Well, our stated
policy in the region is that we believe in a two-state solution, which is wild because
we're aiding, arming, and abetting the very government that is attempting to foreclose
on the possibility of a second state openly. And so I'm just saying that we should treat
Israel the way we treat any other country that did the same stuff. On top of that, I
I come from a state where there are communities where the median income is $14,000 a year.
I remember going to an elementary school, Spain Elementary, in Detroit, two weeks after
the boilers broke, watching first graders try to learn in a room without a boiler.
And the idea that we send billions of dollars abroad, not just to Israel, but to Egypt,
My family came from Jordan, to Pakistan, to UAE, to Qatar.
The idea that we send billions there while our babies can't read in a classroom should
violate every sense of basic fairness.
And finally, too often in our politics when you have a political consensus that's one
place and a bipartisan consensus that's another, the difference is somebody's money.
APAC spent $32 million in my primary, $32 million for one U.S.
Tennessee set a record in that race.
They were big fans of yours.
I mean, they showed it in a very interesting way.
I'm going to hold the question of money to the side of this for a minute,
because I'm more interested in your policy here.
So in what you said, I think there are sort of two levels on which policy
like that could operate.
One is to shut off the money that America sends to an Israel, to an Egypt.
But in this case, let's keep the focus on Israel.
And I think inside the Democratic Party, you're getting to a fair amount of consensus on that.
Right? I think that it is unlikely the next Democratic administration is going to be
selling arms to Israel. It's pretty rich at this point. There might have been a time when our money
was essential to the functioning of that state. I think that time has passed. So then there's
This is the other question, right?
You know, he's when you talk about the apartheid system, when you talk about rights of Palestinians,
which is whether or not America engages in trying to change the status quo among Israelis
and Palestinians.
You know, you can imagine a world where the money shuts off and Benjamin Netanyahu wins
again or, you know, Eisen Cotter, whoever it might be says, you know, fine, like, well,
you know, we'll replace, you know, our budget hole, whatever it might be.
But this is our policy.
And then in your view, what should America's policy be towards that?
So let's start from a philosophical standpoint of where what ought to be.
I believe in equal rights to peace, dignity, and self-determination for Palestinians and
Jewish Israelis.
I believe that it is up to a free Palestinian people and free Jewish Israeli people to decide
how to maneuver the inconsistencies of that, whether that's a two state solution or a one
state solution or land for all as you had a discussion about on your show, or a 23 state
solution, me as a U.S. policymaker, I would be fine with any of those. It's about the
process, not the outcome. And I think the problem right now is ultimately we've often
had too much hubris to think that we get to dictate what happens rather than trying to
enable the circumstances to allow for that discussion to happen.
And the problem that I have is, he's not saying he's endorsing the 23 state solution.
You guys can understand what he's saying, right?
He's saying if the Palestinians and the Jewish Israelis get together and say like, no, we
should do 23 states, it's not up to us to say no, obviously, no one fucking believes
in the 23 state solution. The point he is making is giving autonomy and sovereignty to
the people that live there, all the people that live there, okay?
He's saying that it's not up to him as an American and it's up to him, the only thing
that is up to him as an American is to to manage the parts that we are causing harm.
Okay.
What is this?
Hey, letting you know someone in the queer platonic group chat, the one that you left
of the Kaiser Alter made some ace phobic comments, which he apologized for later.
By the way, I said they found receipts receipts on Twitter of you liking James
Charles tweet, which is really yikes.
Also, Rainbow said you were tweeting your Steven Universe roleplay account that
We're gonna rewatch Alta avatar the last airbender, which is like a really transphobic and racist sexist show
And you know ash, you know how ash feels about it even if they won't
This is a reminder of like a sock sock not doing the dishes because it's queerphobic to demand them of doing the dishes
Yes, it's a it's a joke it's a meme it's a fucking coffee pasta chatters
Can you explain why he specifies Jewish Israelis? I'm just curious about that language. He usually sticks to it. Yes
He's saying Jewish Israelis because he's making a distinction between Palestinian citizens of Israel
Because that's the distinction that the Israeli society broadly makes and has basically codified in not only their
Constitution, but also in the way that they operate
Basically, saying that the US is a polysmaker, our role should be to facilitate a type of
negotiation that brings about a solution rather than mandating a solution from abroad. Yes,
it's a good attitude to have, especially if you're sincere about giving Palestinians a say
rather than only allowing the Israelis to dominate the conversation.
Sock when you do an ableist microaggression by asking them to do the issues, yes.
There is a deep power imbalance here. Israel is a state that actually exists.
There is no Palestinian state. The state of Israel has openly and very directly
try to destroy any coherent movement for Palestinian self-determination.
Notice how Abdelaw said it is chill and normal and also woke and chill and normal and woke and chill.
Abdelaw is the greatest example of deploying swag to attain political power
because he got jacked and started talking like Obama and now he's winning.
Woke, Nick, skit.
It's true though. It's true. 2018, he wasn't jacked. Okay?
2026, he's jacked to the goddamn gills. Wearing a black t-shirt that's tight and look at the
amount of power he's been able to attain. Your cis male privilege is glaringly obvious
with your commitment to the use of the word normal. All you have to say is be kind or
be chill or something like that. And you're not using a word weaponized against entire
generations of trans and queer people. Your message is correct. Your phasing is that of
a boomer. Okay, good. Yes. Yes, that is the, that is what I'm doing.
Yes. Please, you got it. We got to move on. Please, please, please.
It's on purpose. Yes. I'm, I'm deploying my, my cisgender heterosexual white privilege status
as, as a, as a person who can, you know, communicate with people that, that we can bring to our side.
Okay. You cannot make this your major point of advocacy. I'm sorry.
And has often kept people divided on purpose, or arbitrarily jailed people, or you name
the thing. And then there's the policy of mowing the lawn, as they talk about. And so, from
where I sit. Why do so many chatters like that say I know what you're saying but other
people may not and that's why it's bad. What? My responsibility is the 10 million people
in Michigan and making sure that our money does not make other people's problems worse.
And as the first among equals of enforcing international law, when the actually existing
state violates international law. I think it's important for us to hold the actually
existing state accountable to international law. Also, if other people violate international
law, HMS, hold them accountable to international law, but to do so without fear or favor,
which is why it's hard not to talk about the money side. Because the reason that our
policy is the way that our policy is, is because of the massive power of internal spending
in our elections to try to shape outcomes to make sure that there is a bipartisan consensus
around the existing status quo, which is in direct contraposition to what we say we want
the status quo to be, to stay solution.
APEC is a big spender in politics.
And I think APEC has been, I mean, I've said this for a very long time, I think APEC has
done terrible damage to, well, they will both choose in America and Israel, and I'm not a
fan of APEC.
Yeah, I called my shot ahead of time on the CNN edition Hassan Piker culture look back
Hassan Piker wants to stream less in 2026. Obviously, that was a fucking lie
Look at what I said. Who's someone we should be paying attention to next year. Dr. Abdul al-sayed. That was in the month of December
2025 as we are nearing a year
People will say, oh, Hassan, everyone knows that Abdel El-Said is obviously a prominent fixture in American politics.
It's quite the controversial figure, blah, blah, blah. Back then, ain't nobody was paying attention to Abdel El-Said.
Pre-watch Piker. This is why you subscribe to the Piker Broadcasting Service, okay?
The People's Broadcasting Service for tomorrow's news today.
is literally killing me the people willing to log on to assist white guy stream and then get mad at hearing his own opinions
You want to hear an opinion on other intersections go do it the internet is huge don't grab an apple and be mad
It's not speaking from an orange perspective
Also, no the the other side of it is like I'm not even I
Will go so far so that I'm pretty open-minded about the perspective of others, right?
regardless of my you know regardless of my my shortcomings as a cisgender heterosexual white
guy I do think less of this is about money than sometimes you make it out to be Joe Biden was
not the issue for him was not a pac like Joe Biden had his beliefs yes and many people formed their
beliefs on Israel in a very different era and they remember or at least believed in a
very different Israel.
The reason I ask you about this question of what would you actually make the policy into
is because I think there's an analogy here to your Everest analogy on healthcare.
One place I really agree with you is that this idea where people sit around and imagine
what the long term settlement that will fully solve the Israeli
Palestinian conflict would be from where we sit right now when
there's no preconditions for that kind of settlement is more
than I think it's a distraction. I think it's a way of not I
don't want to drag this out but here's something I genuinely
don't understand. I want for my own organizing wish, which I
wish to do and get better at. What would you lose by dropping
normal? Great question. Because everyone thinks they're
normal. And it's an exercise to get people who who want to wear on their sleeve their
abnormal status to stop doing that. It's an exercise to get people to also to also no
longer take issue with the term, because everyone thinks they're normal, everyone.
Ironically enough, those who are saying, like, this is normal in my organizing circles,
to be abnormal, like you're saying your normal is to not use the term normal.
I can't believe this is the thing that sticks so hard.
reality as it is. It's more fun to imagine a world in which it is all solved than to
try to think about the base camps, the hills, the gay there. International law is slow.
You know, even if the US was not blocking its application to the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict. It's long, it's years, it's court cases, it's easy for countries to ignore as many around the world do.
The ICC doesn't command expeditionary military force. And so, you know, you do get into this question of, right, on the
one hand, there are Jewish Democrats in Michigan, who the thing they worry about for you is not that they don't like the
thing you just said, but that they suspect that at your heart, you don't think it Israel should be a Jewish state, that
It's like the one state in the world that should no longer exist.
On the other hand, the thing that often times many, I think, Jewish Democrats
don't think about is the thing you just described, the power imbalance.
And if you just let the conflict run from here, the imbalance does not get you
anywhere good.
It does not.
There's no preconditions.
It's easy to give Kamala one.
We'd have a week of, is it okay for us?
Honestly, normal on CNN for a week.
Oh my God.
Alternate universe.
that would be wonderful target would be like we're doing pride we're not doing pride month
anymore we're doing Pride year. That's on trying to calm down chat. Yeah look this is
I mean this is usually what happens yes and I'm sure that there are uh eventually there's
gonna be hella people uh hella people in here that are going to
to not hear it and do this instead. Always the case. The people that need to hear it
the most are the ones who refuse to entertain the notion.
It's not like Benjamin and Yahoo, but you're not going to get an actual movement here just
through a change of that government. So do you think there's policy here? Or do you think
Simply America no longer making things worse. I take very seriously that policy sits downstream
of politics. You can't get policy in a democratic society unless you're willing to engage in politics.
And so a lot of what I need to do for our children in Detroit and also for all of the kids whose lives
should be free and clear without having to worry about inheriting all of the disaster of the past
Next is about trying to move our conversation to a place where things that you cannot say
need to be said.
When it comes to the fact that our country is subsidizing genocide, it needs to be said.
When it comes to the fact that our country is misusing our tax dollars, it needs to be
said.
When it comes to the fact that we are incoherent, if not hypocritical, about our stated aims
and what we're actually allowing to happen, it needs to be said.
And once it gets to be said, maybe it could be voted on.
And once it gets voted on, maybe we can find our way to policy.
I told you that I actually am somewhat agnostic to the outcome as long as the process that
enables peace, dignity, and self-determination for both peoples is enabled.
But from where we sit right now, we're not moving.
So my job is to move us, take first step.
right now everybody. And the first step is what? To challenge the status quo about what we can
talk about when it comes to American politics. I mean, I always get the question, does Israel have
a right to exist? And it's such an interesting question. Yeah, but I purposely haven't asked you.
You have it. You have it. But because I think this is crazy. Exactly. Israel does exist. We're
way past this. But here's the thing, Ezra, you're right. And you're a very thoughtful,
interlocutor on this issue. How many interviews are you seeing with me? Well, that's the first
question. So what that says is that the status quo of this debate in our civics starts there,
that I have to accept the existence in its current form with its current power structure under its
current policy framework for me to even engage in a conversation. Zoran lies better? What do you
mean lies better? That's so funny to say. I think on this issue Abdul actually outflank Zoran first
of all and neither are lying. That's funny that you're framing it as though they're lying. But
I think Abdul doesn't even better job than Zoran on this issue. He communicates better on this issue.
Neither are lying. They're not doing Muslim, Muslimic style taquitos. Okay. Also, Abdul
is Sunni. Zoran is Shia. Taquitos is a Shia thing anyway. And it's not even about God. I'm not even
going to explain it. I prefer Zoran. Sorry, Hasi. Well, first of all, Zoran is a socialist.
So, and Abdul is not. So, ideologically, I'm closer to Zoran's worldview than I am to Abdul's.
It's a big difference. I'm just being, I'm just calling balls or strikes.
Abdul El Sayed's foreign policy perspective is, in my opinion, better than Zoran Mhamdani.
And I think Abdul El Sayed's communication on Israel is even better than Zoran Mumdoni's. There are minor distinctions
Also Abdul El Sayed is jacked and Zoran is not and I think that is probably the reason why I'm partial to him a little bit more
At the end of the day, I'm a fucking grunt
I'm an animal and I respond to a person who can put up three plates
More positively than a person who can't put up one
I do have that Jim bro connection and I can't let it go. You know what I mean is Zoran's a cardio guy
Abdul is a
Brolic bench presser
I've seen even people like Lexie Alex talk about Abdul lying cozying up to the exception I know I
Know
Well, that's part of the reason why we're watching this because I think people are wrong
And I just don't accept that right now we are getting what we want
We we want equal rights of peace dignity and self-determination for all people if that manifests in a state for both peoples
I'm fine with it, but it is those people who get to make a decision not us and right now
We are stopping that decision from happening. I agree that we're in a very unstable equilibrium and
I also think that the
Conversation on this is blown wide open
But to a different degree in different places, right? I've seen some of these interviews with you
And then of course there are other places right where it's almost taken for granted that Israel does not have a right to exist
I mean you can now in American life
life, the thing that many people, including me, said 15 years ago, which is that you have
a wider range of debate in Israel over Israel than in America over Israel. It's not really
true anymore.
But what I wonder, one reason I think the equilibrium here is unstable is people with
a variety of degrees of views on Israel itself from people who believe very much in its existence
This is a due estate that people don't have watched and been quite horrified by the last
three years.
One way that issues become very unstable is that there's a lot of feeling that doesn't
know how to translate itself into action.
Maybe America just takes a step back.
be being in this conflict as a funder and as a protector and at times as kind of a lawyer.
Maybe we just made things worse. But you could also imagine things getting worse from here.
And right now, I think that the within the democratic as was cadence drives me a wall.
It's literally a frequency that only liberals tune into. Okay, that's what it is. And I
hate to admit it, but I don't have an issue with this cadence. I think it's just yeah,
it's NPR ultrasonic. It is a frequency that when liberals hear it, it's like catnip. They're like,
this is the greatest thinker of our generation. He has the perfect NPR liberal cadence.
He speaks Aaron Sorkin like most MSNOW actors.
You've been brainwashed, I fucking hate it.
I think a lot of you failed to understand that this cadence is very thoughtful and it lands differently with those who spent a lifetime listening to NPR.
One must never forget that, while I, a Socialist, can speak fluent Haganese, I've spent a lifetime
speaking fluent Lebanese as well.
In order for Socialists to be appealing to the masses, we must not forget that there
are those who are allies of us on the liberal side as well.
This is your worst impression.
Your audio is not set up for this.
Ezra's is bassier, bassier.
Party.
I mean, this was a, you know, a tough fight inside your primary.
The question of how you hold a party together, where maybe there's a lot of agreement that
what is happening right now is not good, but it's not a lot of agreement of like, what
That is a stable policy point on which Democrats have many different perspectives ranging from
liberal Zionists to less liberal Zionists to people who are skeptical of Israel at
a much deeper level.
What is an actual policy place where they can kind of stand together, not because they
all believe in the same eventual deal, but because they can agree on the next set of
steps that it makes sense for America, which is not Israel, to take. And that's frankly the
conversational one-half, right? And there are a couple of principal points I think we need to
establish to be able to take a principled step that most people probably agree with.
Number one, that the well-being of the Jewish community is different than
good faith criticism of a foreign government. Those are different things. You can stand with the
the Jewish community, guarantee their safety, guarantee their right to advocate for things
that you disagree with. And that has to be held separate from the question of our foreign
policy toward this country. Second is the question of what are our principles? And this
is the part where I think we sometimes wrap ourselves around the ax a little too much,
which is to say, what do we actually believe in and how do we begin those beliefs? And
I just think it's a lot easier for us to say, all right, here's the next step. We probably
shouldn't be funding this military. We probably shouldn't be unconditionally
funding any military. We probably shouldn't be running cover for the
actions of this particular government, which at the minimum were war crimes, the
maximum were genocide in the courts of law. And we probably shouldn't be buying
an added level of security that basically buys an electorate out of having to
make democratically rational decisions about how to protect it, how to behave, I think those
things are things we should agree upon. No, not everybody who's going to agree with me,
I get it. And I also understand on both the sides of this debate, we're also dealing with
a lot of trauma, a lot of trauma. Yeah, he's, uh, this notice how this is the
end point of a conversation where he's like, uh, let his positions be clear. Israel's
doing a genocide. He's doing apartheid. We are aiding and abetting this country, violating
all norms violating uh... international human rights
it's it's heinous
it's unacceptable
and then he's saying like look i get why people feel the way that they do
but he's sandwiching it right
he's sandwiching it
he explains okay guys stop saying has on a pickle pickled piker okay where is
this famine coming from it we're trying to have a serious conversation here
and you guys are spending the most
please stop. He's sandwiching it, okay? Criticism, understanding of the oppositional framework,
and then criticism again. But people only see the understanding of the oppositional framework and
move on with it for some strange reason, okay? Now, here's the other side of this, though,
because Zana has an interesting perspective. People have pointed to the Fuller Cossacks'
the clip is those morally mitigates the, oh, God, I should have never said anything. Jesus Christ,
now chat's going crazy. People have pointed the fuller context of this clip as though it morally
mitigates the literal both sizing of a genocide and rendering of Israelis as just products of
trauma. This is very much a negation of reality and at best, a liberal Zionist talking boy that
coddles the genocide there as it makes Israelis and Jewish people feel like perpetual victims.
The Israelis are not slaughtering Palestinians because they're traumatized from the Holocaust.
We have many populations who've experienced genocide, which include concentration camps,
rape of women, significant loss of total population, loss of language, who are not incinerating
entire families. The Israelis are slaughtering Palestinians and the Lebanese because they
are an expansionist ethno-supremacist state that runs on a system of apartheid and an ideology
that sees Arabs in particular as inconvenient subhumans necessitating eradication. I don't think
that Abdel Osaid disagrees with the ethno-underlying anti-arabracism, the ethno-supremacist argument
for the expansion of the Greater Israel Project. He does agree with that. He also
has said similar things. I don't think these two things are at odds with what he's saying.
You can literally be in support willingly, unwillingly of this broader, racist,
ethno supremacist expansionist project while still being taught that if this ethno supremacist
expansionist project doesn't exist, that the Holocaust is going to happen again. It's wrong,
it's an incorrect assumption, but you can also understand that that is where that begins,
that is why that conversation begins. I always stress the importance. I always explain this to
people, right? Like, they say this all the time. Americans don't care about Israel by and large.
Even older Americans don't necessarily care about Israel. They care about anti-Semitism,
and Israel and its existence and its violence is packaged as a necessity because, if Israel doesn't
exist in the violent ways that it does, then as an ethno- supremacist, ethno-religious supremacist
state, that is an apartheid state, that's an occupation, then anti-Semitism will turn
the Holocaust dial up and Jews will be under attack everywhere around the world.
I don't agree with the assessment, but it doesn't matter. That is the social conditioning. And if
you want to break through that social conditioning, you have to identify with where this conversation
just coming from. Okay, you have to identify why many American Jews feel this way. Many older
American Jews feel this way. Okay. What is this? Wokes, sneak, skit. Look what you did.
Look what you did.
Yeah, and Abdul is not defending Israel in any way she performed
He's just saying I understand where where Jewish Americans and their support for Israel comes from
I'm starting to doubt the motives of people like Zana. I'm not gonna lie. No, I don't I think she's
She's very smart. You have to remember. There's like it's not just Zana
You know, Ali Abu Nima has said similar things Muhammad el-Kurd has said similar things
I do not doubt their perspective. I do not doubt their their ambitions at all. I think that's ridiculous to say
Okay, it's totally totally inappropriate and totally ridiculous to say these are very thoughtful people
Okay, they're very thoughtful people
and and
They're coming at this
from a
Framework that is on a sample like look
Look, there is truth to the argument that those to my left present all the time.
The argument that we're centering Jewish feelings in this conversation.
Okay, there is truth to that.
It's not incorrect.
We are doing that.
Okay?
Part of the reason why I deliberately still talk about this framework is because I am
trying to detangle American Jews from unconditional loyalty and support to
Israel. Obviously, it's been effective, especially in our generation, and it has
been very ineffective when it comes to dealing with older American Jews who
have had a lifetime of Zionist propaganda. But I do it regardless because I
believe in it because it is true. Okay?
I don't know what the fuck that was.
Oh, no.
Now that woke me skid is in the chat, Nick skid is back in the chat.
Is it also because people are comfortable with different equilibrium's conversations
about politicians need to be different than activists?
Actually not a bad question though.
I understand that for a lot of Jewish Americans, there's the trauma of the Holocaust and the
need to have a refuge.
I understand that.
And I also understand that for a lot of Palestinian Americans and Palestinians everywhere, there's
the trauma of the Nachba and the great displacement of people told that they were just going to
be able to come home in a couple of days, never ever to be able to go back.
We've got to be able to create the circumstances within which both of these deeply traumatized
people can have a conversation built on principle. To me, the answer has to be principle. It has
to be. That's for all end. I was going to find a question. What are three books you recommend
to the audience? So I thought this through and maybe this is a child of immigrant overachiever
thing that I've got for us. That's okay. So the first one is the best and brightest David
to help us, Sam.
It's not a question as much as people like Noah Samson,
though, who are using a platform to shoot on pro-passion activists
like in JVP and SAP for their brothers.
So here's the other thing I was going to say
about the Jewish voice for peace, right?
A lot of people will be like, bro, what the fuck, like,
why are we centering Jewish folks at the,
why are we centering Jewish people or whatever?
Those people are ridiculous, okay?
What the fuck do you mean?
The average American needs to understand
that there is no monolithic Jewry,
and it eradicates one major point of the conversation.
If Jewish anti-Zionists were not also effective allies,
and in some instances even more effective
when speaking to unaffiliated Christians and Jews alike,
Jews alike, then the media would not blacklist them, okay? It's the same
principle behind what FD Signifier was talking about. There's a reason why
they're not having Mark Lamont Hill have these conversations from a
radical black perspective. There's a reason why they're not allowing
Thana SC Coates to have these conversations from a black radical
perspective, okay? Because these things do matter. People still care about the
aesthetics, you are more appealing to, you know, you, you are not, you are not able to
overcome certain tribalistic attitudes. Okay. That's it. So yes, of course, it matters that
an organization that that is openly Jewish is opposing genocide and saying not in our name,
Because it breaks through the overwhelming amount of propaganda that like this is something that Jews singularly care about
Okay
Do you understand
There is extra credibility in the identity
It's not for you. It's not for me
It's for others who are uninitiated with the process who think to themselves. Oh, well, I don't want to be offensive to Jewish people
because perhaps they haven't thought about how ridiculous it is to associate an entire religion of people with a genocide in a genocidal state.
That's it.
To borrow the great quote, Americans are not very intellectual is true.
Anyway, my DSA candidate got arrested by DPS and I just got notified of a refund of your
event at University of Texas.
Yeah, University of Texas was looking for spaces.
One of the spaces that they found was a larger one that was off campus because the venue
got pushed off campus because they were trying to accommodate for 2,000 people, 2,000 people
registered to the event.
The school has 2,000-person venues that are available at that date.
They are refusing to allow college Democrats to use those venues.
That's it.
They are engaging in a soft cancellation.
The text has informed them security costs over $20,000 in order to pressure them to cancel.
They are aggressively trying to set up hurdle after hurdle in front of this event, okay?
Here's the Austin American statesman, Hasan Piker, event at UT Austin draws over 2,000
RSVPs, will organizers find a new venue?
Well, an event with leftist political commentator Hasan Piker go on the University of Texas
University of Democrats chapter says yes despite struggle to find a new venue for the appearance
which has stirred opposition and support.
The September 30th event was originally scheduled for William C. Powers Jr. Student Activity
Center which is roughly 460 person capacity in its auditorium.
But more than 2,400 have RSVPed online and joined a waitlist, calling into question the
event's ability to be hosted at the location.
Last week student leaders from University of Democrats accused UT of forcing the event
off campus.
UT has not cancelled the event or ordered it move off campus, but the event's venue
remains uncertain as the group searches for a location that can accommodate the expected crowd
and security requirements. On September 3, a special events coordinator with the UT
Police Department told University Democrats President Adit Raha,
given the comments and recent media attention to more secure location was recommended. Raha said
UT did not explicitly tell the group it could not hold the event there. Raha has repeatedly
pointed to what he describes as university policy requiring student officials, school
officials to help find a suitable campus venue for events.
The University Catalogs Chapter 13, Speech, Expression and Assembly, which Raha reference
says, should the size of any assembly exceed the maximum number of participants that is
safe for a given location, including a reserve space, assembly participants will be directed
by campus authorities to relocate to a space that is better suited to the size of the assembly,
the extent relocation is practicable.
Asked why he believes the policy requires the university to directly assist any group
in moving the event, Raja said he interpreted the policy that participants will be directed
by campus authorities to mean they are supposed to allow us to use a bigger space, not they
will ask us to move to a bigger space because the university certainly has a preference
to make sure any event that happens on campus doesn't become dangerous.
Raja said university police told a group that officials would prefer it move to a larger
location.
Spaces that should have been available for us to use, help us accommodate the massive
interest, have not been made available to us for questionable reasons.
The university did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Raja said the group was denied the use of Gregory Jim, which, according to the university's
website, can hold between 2,000 and 2,400 people for lecture-style events because the
university requires the entire day for setup.
Raja said the Dean of Students also told him Hog Memorial Auditorium, which holds roughly
1,000 people, still fewer than the total number of RSVPs and those listed on the waitlist,
or the event was unavailable because another group or entity had reserved it.
When Raja asked which group had reserved Hog so he could reach out directly, he said an
unofficial responded, or he said an official responded, the Hog event for September 30th
will not be moving or canceling.
also told Raja they would not be adding any new events to the fall at Bass Concert Hall,
which seats approximately 3,000 people. More recently, the Union building became unavailable
even though it had been available when he first requested it, he said. According to the University
of the University website, the Shirley Byrd Parry Ballroom, which is the largest event space in
the Union, other than Hog Auditorium, can only hold roughly 1,000 people in a lecture style setup.
Ra said the Long Center for Performing Arts became an off-campus option and that the group
had secured a contract to use the space. Initially, University Democrats issued 460 tickets for
the event just over the capacity for the original on-campus event space, but the Long Center
contract led the group to issue roughly 1,700 tickets total. Ra signed the group's portion
of the contract, he said, but was later told by a Long Center representative that following
discussions with the CEO on board that this is not an event we feel comfortable hosting. Ra
Baja said he asked the center to put this in writing but has not received a response.
The Long Center said in a statement to the America Statement Thursday evening that it
had been contacted by the group but the request to rent the space was still in the discovery
phase and a contract had not been executed.
As we worked through the details of the potential event, we determined that given the unusual
scope of the event's needs, we were unable to accommodate the request.
The Long Center board of directors had not been made aware of the request and had not
since met, uh, had not met since August 24th. The center said in a statement,
the center did not clarify when the event request was made or what the unusual scope
of events needs entailed. The center's board, they're all, they're all doing the same thing.
Okay. They are all doing the same thing. All of the venues are dropping out piece by piece. Okay.
Wait until Ken Patz then hears about this. He's a staunch first amendment defender.
That's really interesting that you said that and Paxton has heard about the event and has
demanded that University of Texas, Austin, not host me as a matter of fact. And perhaps you
might be thinking, well, what about the governor? He's also a staunch advocate of the First
Amendment, Governor Greg Abbott. Governor Greg Abbott also is a staunch anti-cancel culture
warrior. Lo and behold, would you be shocked to find out that Governor Greg Abbott also
demanded that the event be canceled? Now, you might say, okay, what's our last option here?
You might be thinking, you know, unlikely ally, surely the senator from the great state of Texas,
Ted Cruz, who is also an anti-cancel culture warrior, who was also a staunch advocate for the
First Amendment, probably had something to say about this, right? Well, you'd be correct. He did
have something to say about this. And just like Governor Greg Abbott, just like Attorney General
Ken Paxton, who's running for Senate right now. Senator Ted Cruz also demanded the event be canceled.
Now, you might be thinking to yourself, okay, this is shocking. I can't believe that these people
would drop their principles like this. But what about the Democrats in the state of Texas?
What about the Democrats? There's Democrats in the state of Texas. I'm sure they have
collectively come out and spoken out against the Republicans in their sheer hypocrisy. Well,
Well, wouldn't you be shocked to find out that the most conservative Democrat in the
entire country, Henry Cuellar, Representative Henry Cuellar, which Nancy Pelosi drove over
the finish line against Jessica Cisneros in that barn burner of a race, that Henry Cuellar,
you might know his name also from the FBI investigation and subsequent prosecution into his misdealings
with the Osity government, Azerbaijan, where he was getting bribed to offer them favorable
That Henry Quay are came out and also demanded that this event not take place
That my friends is how this works
Now if you go back to
2022, here's Ted Cruz, supporting free speech for students over the weekend, campus reform
reporter Alexa Schwerha spoke with Tech Senator Ted Cruz in Tampa, Florida to discuss free
speech on college campuses.
Today's Democrat Party doesn't believe you or anyone else has a right to speak, Senator
said.
Wow, interesting.
That's just so shocking to me, I'm so surprised that Republicans would all collectively decide
to abandon free speech in the First Amendment.
When there's someone who is a critic of Israel, a vocal critic of Israel that is going to
speak on a college campus.
That's so shocking to me.
Perhaps, notable advocate for the First Amendment, Joseph Robinette Rogan, who is a resident
of Austin, Texas, would have something to say about this.
So far, he's been awfully quiet.
Ross said at this point, the group will either have to return to the original location on
campus and scale back the event to accommodate the 460-seat venue, in which case, university
Democrats would have to return additional tickets the group issued when it believed
the event would move to Long Center or find a new off-campus location.
Raja said the group has not decided where the event will be held, but it will take
place as scheduled on September 30th.
The final location will largely depend on available security.
Raja said the group wants safety infrastructure that includes metal detectors, wands and bag
checks and secure entrances and exits, he said. Obviously, there's been additional attention
on this event and straight up people have been issuing death threats against me, against
the organizers, saying, you know, talking about how they're going to assassinate me
at this event, at this venue, saying that, you know, they're literally posting like
schematics and blueprints of every single venue that that we have found over and over
again to say like here are the entry points here you can use a here's a clock tower that
you can shoot where you have a direct line of sight at the speaker you know stuff like
that. Yes, this has been ongoing for the past month. And would you would you be surprised
find out that this kind of stuff never gets media attention. This kind of stuff only gets media
attention if this is happening to a right-wing speaker. It's interesting.
Puyger's appearance stirs support and controversy. Conservatives and a Democratic congressman
have pressured UT to shut down the talks citing comments that pikers made about 9 11 israelan jewish
people which have been criticized one still one such remarks uh includes piker saying he would vote
for hamas over israel every time according to the wall shoe journal texas hella jewish organization
at UT condemned the planned appearance saying in a statement that while it supports free speech
mr piker's views however go against their values as americans and jews piker has attracted millions
of social media followers since 2018 for criticism of democratic and republican policies he has also
become a target for conservatives at the U.S. Senator Ted Cruz and other Texas Republicans calling
for Democrats to disavow Piker during repeated remarks at the 2026 Republican National Convention
in Dallas. Raja said his organization invited Piker to campus because of the commentator's
ability to excite young Democrats. The group received approval for the event August 31st.
Weeks after following up with the university about its request and asking why the event had
not yet been approved while turning Point USA, a conservative student group had an event approved
with Ben Shapiro on October 7th. See, that's the other side of the story.
Turning Point USA was able to get Ben Shapiro approved to speak on campus. I
don't know what kind of auditorium Ben Shapiro is going to be speaking at, but
let me tell you, it's not a problem at all. Now, what's interesting about that is
that I actually have a real organic audience that's not diminishing an
impact or size, whereas Ben Shapiro's audience has fallen apart. But Ben
Shapiro is a normal Republican.
Shapiro has faced controversy over his remarks on race and ethnicity.
A coalition of Republican student groups have challenged Piker and University Democrats
to a public debate.
The group also invited members to protest the event.
They have the right to make their voices heard, and we will make ours heard loudly and proudly
as well.
Benjamin Schrader, chairman of the Austin Young Republicans, Ross said he and University
Democrats are not interested in holding a full debate.
If they want to ask Piker a question, there will be a Q&A portion of the event, and they
They can ask him a question there, but we have no intention of doing a full debate.
Ross said the Republican groups could contact Piker Steem if they wanted to debate him.
Obviously, they have every right to protest the event.
That's the First Amendment.
So if they want to do that, that's their prerogative.
Ross said, we want to make sure people who are actually wanting to see him and hear from
him can.
We also want to make sure that everyone at the event is safe, both people attending
the event and people protesting it.
This would have been your largest solo event yet, 2.4k plus people.
Yeah.
Meanwhile, toilet paper USA, turning point GWU is now in controversy after posting a
picture of the Rhodesia flag under a post from the college's Republican chapter.
Good stuff.
So hereļæ½s another interesting tidbit about Charlie Kirkļæ½s assassination. According
to Associated Press and CNN, Turning Point USA insisted Charlie Kirk speak outdoors despite
security concerns, report says. A new report on Charlie Kirkļæ½s assassination last year
says his Turning Point USA organization insisted he speak outdoors despite security concerns.
While the university he was killed didnļæ½t properly assess dangers like the possibility
of a rooftop shooter.
will not do outdoor events. I do not do outdoor events. I will not do outdoor events. Obviously,
you know, you have to be careful.
that they claim the event is unsafe because the things that they themselves are allowing
to happen without addressing them, death threats, posting specs, etc. Yeah. It's also funny.
There is this like hilarious irony in this. It's dark. It's sad, but it's also kind of
funny at the same time, which is that these guys at on the Republican side keep saying
like, oh, Hasan is undermining Charlie Kirk's assassination. He's, uh, he's making light
of it, which is why we have to kill him. They're like political violence is never, uh, acceptable,
which is, you know, I agree with that. I have, I share the same perspective, right? But then
they're like, yeah, this guy actually is making light of political violence. I'm not. And then
they turn around and say, and that's why we have to murder him.
Interesting stuff.
Cornell son wrote about, uh, my, uh, rally at, uh, Cornell university,
calling a week of backlash from student organizations,
conservative news outlets, prominent political figures,
including president Donald Trump ally, Laura Loomer,
left his political commentator,
Some pikers spoke to a crowd of 450 students at stage chapel on Thursday.
Most of us students not bomb camp base Parker discussed the end of Zionism and
reflected on the rising popularity of the progressive movement ahead of
upcoming midterm elections.
Piker streamed the event live on a Twitch channel with 26,000 viewers
watching minutes before piker took stages.
Appearance was broken into a speech and a Q and a period before appearing at
stage chapel, piker live streamed and criticized Cornell administrations for
his response to the alleged gang rape at the Kai Fai house and for expelling
students and professors for protesting and in reference to the suspension of
poor students and protesters and criticism of professor Russell
Rickford. The leftist streamers campus visit drew disapproval from many parties
due to his history of controversial statements. Inflammatory rhetoric, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Parker responded to his critics during a speech from Cornelians for Israel's
Instagram statement to Cornell law professor William Jacobson on Fox News
to Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin and Yahut the United Nations General Assembly.
The event was open to Cornell community members with tickets at a strict
no-back policy and enforce tight security measures.
Cornell University Police Department officers stood at each entrance and exit to the chapel,
and attendees were required to swipe their Cornell ID cards and be scanned by metal detectors
upon entry.
Assistant Dean of Students Michelle Guignard opened the event to remind students of the
expressive activity policy she informed the audience that any violation of the policy
would result in a warning and then expulsion from the event.
values, free and open inquiry and expression, and strives to create a community where diverse
opinions can be expressed and heard, Guignard said.
Long Guignard, Adriana Venk, 27, co-president of Students for Justin Palestine and the Sun
Opinion columnist, explained the purpose of the student not bomb campaign, coalition
of students, JVP, and the like, applause and cheers echoed through the chapel as Piker
took stage, surprising even the streamer himself.
There was a much warmer reception than I thought it was going to get today, Piker said, especially
considering the media frenzy around my appearance on Cornell's campus.
Ahead of Piker's visit, Fox News interviewed Cornell law professor William Jacobson who
described Piker's appearance as campaign of intimidation and as Piker himself as incendiary.
In reference to Jacobson's comments, Piker said Jacobson said, ļæ½This would be akin
to a Nazi rally, which is insane.ļæ½ He said it on Fox News, which is the Nazi network.
Piker also acknowledged that Cornellians for Israel condemned his visit.
Piker critique CFI's argument that is America deserve commenting purge violence and contrasted
to the group inviting an Israel defense soldier to campus last spring.
You can't on the one hand say words or violence and then bring a trigger man of Benjamin Nenny
on to a college campus.
Piker said what message does that send to the student body?
Piker said he came to Cornell to discuss what he described as a new political reality
that is shaping all around us, which he said will give rise to radical political opportunities.
He pointed to recent successes of Democratic Socialists of America candidates who secured
their Democratic primaries, Melikeiros, Daria Lisa, Clara Valdez in New York City, Zoramum
Dadi, Piker said their constituency is in the moral majority.
There are more good decent people with moral conviction who find it unfathomable that the
wealthiest nation on earth chooses to spend its billions on blowing up schools overseas
rather than building schools in our neighborhoods.
Piker also claimed he has noticed a shift in voters' attitudes towards the traditional
two-party system.
They're saying no more to Trumpism. They're also saying no more to do nothing Democrats,
Piker said. That's when I realized it's time to seize control over the system a little bit more
and get people elected into positions of power. Several prominent DSA politicians have been
endorsed by and featured on Piker's streams, including Senate Michigan, Abdel El-Sayed,
New York Mayor Zoram Amdani, AOC, Netanyahu Condemn, Piker, and his address to the UN General
assembly. That's such a, that's still a crazy thing. Like, I, you know, I, I guess I'm different
than just like a regular straightforward retribution, but it is still wild to me that like I'm being
addressed by the prime minister of Israel, Benjamin Ninah, who at the UN General Assembly,
an indicted war criminal, you know, for the crime of all crimes doing a genocide.
Piker rebutted this criticism in a speech pointing to a September 12, 2001 New York Times
interview where Netanyahu referred to 9-11 as very good for US Israel.
Relations Piker claimed the pushback to a speech at Cornell and other campuses out of fear.
They are most afraid of popular action. They're afraid of democracy. They're afraid of all of us.
They're afraid of the people. Then there was a Q&A. Why do you think a view as an individual
had been receiving so many attacks on the political mainstream?
Pyger answered by critiquing traditional media for avoiding criticism of Israel,
but demanding the silencing and cancellation and de-platforming of all who oppose Israel's
violence. Israel enjoys tremendous support from both parties and from mainstream media for almost
80 years of its entire existence. And that's now changing. Pyger said,
is changing as a direct consequence of Israel's actions and Gaza, heinous war crimes that many
of you has seen and can never unsee them. Sometimes when they write out my comments in this format,
I'm like, I'm really fucking cooked. In the moment when I'm speaking, I'm like, oh, God,
I'm not doing the best job. I'm not the best orator. I, there's so much, you know, I could,
I could frame this argument in a much better way. You know what I mean? But then when I hear it,
being discussed. I'm like, damn, this shit fucking popped. This shit banged. Where is
the article? I don't think Poppy's being too hopeful when he says that I think that's a
reality. The end of Zionism. Adding that Israel supporters keep using the old ways of defending
user which are limited to calling its opponents anti-semitic.
Vinc also raised that Cornell Career Services is a hosted job opportunities with US immigration
customs.
Piker responded, if you got a Cornell education and you work and you fucking work at ICE,
holy shit, you're a loser.
You got to be extra racist at that point.
I saw such devastating poverty and it was manmade.
He argued that while Republicans in American government may claim that the poverty is a
byproduct of communism, there's actually the results of the American government.
The humanitarian mission named the lesser America convoy.
closing remarks, Piker encourages the audience to get politically active, stating if it didn't work,
then they wouldn't try to stop you from doing it. Maintain solidarity, maintain revolutionary
optimism always, and we will win. Oh, student reactions. Second-year MPA student Nathaniel
Favre told the Sun he's been a fan of Piker since 2018, but he said it was surprised that the
university would allow Piker to speak on campus. Not all students attended the event agree with
piker, including Yeshua Graham. I don't hate his son, but I really disagree with a lot of his
takes. Graham told the Sun, noting that pikers may rape, just use violent rhetoric when talking
about Israel. He's not the leader that the American people or Cornell needs to actually
support things like propouse on an issue that Graham himself has supported. Graham added that he
was not surprised by piker speech, noting that the Schumer is usually more expressive when he
streams. For some students like favors pikers visit was a symbolic of a future, including
positive political change. I think is visit the campus in general. It's like a bright spot and a
whole slew of negativity. Always make shit up when they don't like you. I know it's,
I don't, I don't make rape jokes unless they're talking about like fucking bro tips or some
shit. But it's usually, it's usually a thing that people say when they can't say what they truly
mean, which is I don't really under, I don't really like that people appreciate his incendiary
commentary. Oh, I'm pro-Palestine myself, but maybe not to the same degree as Hassan.
You know, that's what it is.
Nathan Cho, a member of Cornell Republic, has told the Sun that he disagreed.
Pyger stands on Cuba. Cho described the Cuban government as oppressive citizens
every single day in the true socialist fashion.
Vink told the Sun she hopes Pyger speech will inspire action. I'm really hoping that
that people who are brought to the event today by a son's celebrity also get
involved on campus as our goal in hosting the event. Also AOC is going to be
speaking at the Town Hall title student versus billionaires on Sunday hosted by
Cornell's political union on Friday discussed in a discussion title how we
build a democracy worth saving.
Pryger's visit to Cornell first announced September 15th leading the public
condemnation republican canada peter oberacher who's currently challenging
representative josh riley
for new york's night the congressional district wrote on tuesday in
expo cities absolutely disgusted by cornell's decision to host piker
the shimmer is violent anti-semitic and called upon elected officials to
condemn the university's decision
rnc
spokesperson christin schianchi further disapprove of the pikers visit
a son piker is the scum of the earth
a son piker is the scum of the earth and it shouldn't be a profile encourage
to condemn him
josh wiley is a cowardly sick offense so beholden
the radical left and he'd rather cosine piker's violent anti-american pro
terrorist positions than risk losing power
but chong ram told the sunday felt it was important for cornell to continue
hosting extremist speakers like piker and the IDF soldier in order to foster diverse
perspectives. They are comparing me to a child killer. What are we doing? They are comparing
my objectively anti child murder position to be an extremist in the same vein as being
the child killer itself. This shit makes no sense. Okay. Hey, this guy who sniped toddlers
is on the same wavelength of extremism as the guy who says you shouldn't snipe toddlers
this is america
this is
obviously
the idiocy of
the the
moderate position the both sides of extremities and we must cut them out
what an unbelievable paradigm
if we don't allow people from diverse perspectives, we're just gonna enter into rabbit holes,
gram at it, and it's gonna make every single person more radical and much more adversarial
on how they speak to people from different political perspectives.
I think anyone should come on campus, no matter how controversial their takes are.
When we stop talking, violence is gonna happen.
Yeah, this is her position on Israel.
Today's most unsurprising development, the guy who plays the literal Nazi slandering
the only Jewish state in the world.
Dude.
When Republicans start talking about Israel, they just seem so insane.
Like there is a 0% chance that the average Republican, uh, when they talk about
Israel, like there's 0% chance that you're going to fucking look at what they're
saying and be like, well, that's a normal guy with normal opinions that I agree with.
You know, like you don't have to be a campus activist to understand that Republicans
are objectively fucking hysterical when they talk about Israel.
Objectively abnormal, objectively hysterical, they have completely lost sight of how the
overwhelming majority see the issue.
Yeah, if you want to have diverse set of extreme opinions, yeah, have a Hamas militant
speak at Cornell. Not an American political commentator who thinks what Israel is doing
is is unconscionable and wrong, which is the overwhelming majority position. Okay.
That would be the both sides of that extreme situation, right?
Yeah, New York Post also got mad because I said give Hamas the Iron Dome. That was, you know,
that was funny. That was a funny moment. Or they were like, he said, give Hamas Iron Dome,
give Hamas weapons. That's what they, that's how they, that's how they covered it.
Anyway, yeah, you know who all said that Mallory fucking MacMarlon?
Republicans getting wiped out of midterm elections in the destruction of a second Trump term for
which conservatives at high hopes all due to a war waged at the behest of Benjamin and
Yahu will be an important accelerant for the collapse of right wing support for Israel.
uh... i think that's too hopeful i think they are occult and they're insane
it's also
it's also very
it's also very interesting is not lost upon me that it's
now two
not one
but two administrations
where the american public is experiencing negative real wage growth
where they are casting everything
into the fire
to offer unconditional loyalty and support to the state of Israel.
That's two.
We are stuck in a permanent brandonian loop, okay?
An important thing to remember is that per the chart, median real wage growth was negative
for much of the Biden presidency.
Matt Iglesias posted per MT Consul, Mike Consul, we can stop speculating about the nature of
the Vibe Session because conveniently real wages have gone negative. Hey, guess what?
That's literally what happened under Brandon as well. And I have not heard a single other
person that isn't like a socialist that isn't on the left. I've never heard this commentary
from a single damn liberal. I used to say it all the time and I still say it all the time.
experienced negative real real wage growth under the Biden administration and they never
forgot about it and they never let Biden forget about it. Okay. That was huge. Of course,
people are going to remember that. And now it's happening again. Okay. Now it is happening
again. Remember, I told you all the time that under the Biden administration, they experienced
year and a half of negative real wage growth and they never, understandably, they never let that go.
So the economy rebounding did not change that reality. And now they're experiencing it again.
They're experiencing it again, this time directly for Israel. Biden in many respects,
in common layers in many respects, through American democracy, under the through American
democracy in a pit of fire. They were like, I don't care. The baby murder must continue.
Israel must be able to slaughter. Israel must be allowed to slaughter as many children
as it wants to. Even if we lose the election, it doesn't matter.
And then, lo and behold, they predictably lost the election, right?
Now, Trump is doing the same. He's like, no, Israel must be allowed to continue slaughtering
children. And as a matter of fact, we will aid and abet Israel slaughtering children
ourselves. We'll take a more direct participatory role in the slaughtering of children this
time in Iran. And of course, the consequences that are very clear, the Shredda Hormuz is
closed, right? And it's had a massive spike in gas prices. And instead of putting an end
to this madness, Donald Trump is continuing it. And not only that, but he also has this
like very weird attitude about the process where he's like, it's a price I'm willing
to bear. It's a price I'm willing to pay. Yes, you guys are gonna have to, you know,
pay more for gas. But we must pay those prices. After all, it's Israel. Come on. And we saw,
We saw some of the consequences of this, right? We saw some of the consequences of this.
In some, I mean, think about Benjamin Netanyahu's previous UN General Assembly meetup. He was
able to secure so much support from American politicians and even, you know, was able to
operate like a normal leader. This time around, not only did everybody leave the UN General Assembly,
but also he had no meetings. He didn't even meet with Trump. That's huge. He came in, in and out,
no meetings with Trump. Saw Javier Malay for like a second, and that's pretty much it. That's a big
change of pace. And I think part of that is because a lot of the cowards that govern, that run the
world, right, that run western countries, are trying to see if they'll lose his election or not.
They don't want to take ownership over Benjamin Nen Yau. If he loses the election,
they can basically say all of the problems that were caused in Israel were caused because of
Benjamin Nen Yau, so they're waiting. But that's where we're at.
And Javier Bloss reports the Strait of Hormuz flows are hovering at 13 to 14 million barrels per day.
7-day averages about the same as the brief peak in July, but with two notable differences.
A. Iranian flows are zero rather than 2 million barrels per day, and all flows are fresh loadings rather than pre-loaded tankers.
We're of course going to be talking, and now we're getting to the situation monitoring.
We're gonna be talking about the takeaways from the Trump she stayed visit where there was a eight-point plan that was discussed
It's mostly it's largely bullshit. I'll be honest
But
The entire time as we were talking for the last 12 hours or so there have been nonstop reports of explosions
being heard coming from the Shred of Hormuz but we're in the dark on what's
actually going on. So let's get started with the Trump and Xi meeting. The
Trump-Xi summit.
President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping concluded a state visit on Friday after a tour of the National Archives and tea of course at the White House. This was seized first into Washington in more than a decade. Olivia Bernal did join.
Hold on, why is this so low, the audio?
It's us from the White House with more on the goal of the visit.
Olivia, good morning.
Well, good morning, Adriana.
Yes, this state visit was heavy on the friendship, but light on the substance.
The temporary trade truce between the two world's largest economies was extended, but
President Xi left Washington without any major policy breakthroughs on Iran, Taiwan, and
artificial intelligence.
We've had a tremendous visit from two spectacular people.
President Trump rolled out the red carpet for President Xi Jinping this week in a highly
anticipated state visit.
It included a tour of the National Archives and a gift from the Chinese leader of two
pandas headed for the Atlanta Zoo.
But despite the spectacle, there was little on substance.
We had a great meeting. We had a really great meeting.
No new guardrails on artificial intelligence were announced amid rising public concerns.
President Trump says he wants U.S. tech companies to push forward
with developing the most advanced models to stay ahead of the Chinese.
We're leading China in AI. We're the most sophisticated country in the world.
And frankly, I want to keep it that way because whoever wins AI wins.
Trump said she was open to the idea of rebranding AI to superintelligence, while she warned
the technology must remain always under human control.
And on Iran...
During your discussion with President Xi, did you discuss the war with Iran?
We did.
We did.
Do you think there will be progress in the next period?
I think we're going to do great.
President Trump declined to say whether China would stop buying Iranian oil.
Mr. President, did you call on President Xi to stop buying oil from Iran?
U.S. Ambassador to China, David Perdue said the point was pressed.
Any help that they would give Iran, whether it be direct or indirect, whether it be intelligence
or parts or military.
I can't believe this guy is the U.S. Ambassador to China.
It should be me.
I have noticed something that I find, I guess, a little bit hypocritical.
I tweeted about this earlier today. The elite get the China max when the goal of China maxing
is to secure more profit opportunities for capitalists. But when you as a regular citizen
say we shouldn't treat China as an adversary, that we should normalize relations with China,
that there are things that we can learn from a chinese economic policy for the prosperity of americans
then you are treated as an enemy
isn't that interesting
so we only get to have relations with china as long as
capitalists
are benefiting from it you can have relations with china
to the benefit of the workers
interesting
Just something I noticed.
Just something I noticed.
China gave us two pandas and Trump gave them nothing back.
Now, panda diplomacy is normal.
It's a good way that...
What is this?
Hassan stopped.
There are so many immigrants from China.
Uber drivers that complain about the air quality of the country.
Dog, what are you talking about?
That is the funniest criticism of China overall to be like, no, dude, you don't understand.
It's the Chinese air quality.
That's like the number one thing I've met Uber drivers.
They told me, yeah, Panda diplomacy is a big part of Chinese diplomacy historically and
certainly still very much the case. It just simply means that China is invested in normalizing
relations with said country. Yeah, the elites in question, by the way, are crazy. Like this
list is crazy. And also they had Brett Bayer, Laura Ingraham, Jesse Waters there, which
I thought was really fucked up. And then their spouses as well.
At summit, she sought to tilt Trump's stance on America's place in Asia and has talked
to President Trump. Chinese leader used praise, warnings and wartime history to challenge
American support for Taiwan and Japan. Okay. Basically, the major takeaways, the major
takeaways are as follows. There is going to be a restructuring of the tariffs and easing
of tariffs from the American side in exchange for an easing of strategic export controls.
China's summit reached an eight-point consensus. I will read them to you that I translated off
of their website as follows. Two heads of state exchange in-depth views of the constructive,
strategic, and stable relationship between China and the United States as well as major
international and regional issues. Pretty boilerplate stuff. Number one, both sides
agreed to build a constructive, strategic, and stable relationship between China and
the United States based on respect, fairness, and equality. Number two, both sides agreed
to support each other in successfully hosting the APEC leaders informal meeting and the
G20 leaders summit. So that's huge. This means Trump will travel to Shenzhen, China on November
18th for the APEC summit this year. Okay, bro, how's it feel waking up and realizing you're not
Chinese? Shut up. I'm white Chinese. APEC, not APEC, A-P-E-C. Okay, the Asia-Pacific Conference.
So China is going back or Trump is going back to China as I told you he would say yes to
so right after the midterms Trump is going to be going to China and a pick is huge because I
believe Russia Vladimir Putin will be there as well it's not a lot of Western conference at all
So, yeah. And then Xi Jinping will come back for the G20 Leaders Summit.
Third, the two heads of state agreed that Iran should fulfill its commitment not to develop
nuclear weapons and that no country or organization should impose tolls on international waterways
as the Chinese position. They're reiterating it. Basically, what they're saying is a blockade
you know, pound for pound, you don't get to blockade the Shredda Hormuz for Iran.
And Iran doesn't blockade the Shredda Hormuz either. Fourth, the two heads of
state recalled that China and the United States were allies in World War II and
fought side-by-side to win the war. That's Trump basically saying, like C, we had
cooperation. Back in the day, we should do that again. Fifth, the two heads of state
acknowledged a positive role of the China-US trade consultation mechanism and
the results of the Constitution between the two trade teams, including the establishment
and advancement of mechanisms such as the Trade Council reaching a $30 billion reciprocal
tariff reduction arrangement and the extension of the Kuala Lumpur trade consultation results
and instructed that these be implemented.
So China is not going to do export controls in exchange for America easing of the sanctions
and China is going to ease the sanctions as well.
progress has been made in the cooperation between Chinese and U.S. drug enforcement agencies.
That's number six.
Recently, the two sides have cooperated closely, jointly cracking multiple cases involving
new psychoactive substances and precursor chemicals, arranging dozens of suspects in
both arresting, dozens of suspects in both countries.
This is the whole China's doing fentanyl, China's doing fentanyl, we must stop them.
7. Both sides agreed to establish a China-US artificial intelligence dialogue to exchange views
on the risks and benefits of artificial intelligence. The next dialogue will be held in November this
year. Both sides agreed to establish communication channels for artificial intelligence-related
issues. And number 8, last but not least, perhaps the most significant, here you go,
on wearing the pin to honor it. The US welcomes the arrival of the pair of giant pandas loaned by
China to the Atlanta Zoo. In addition, the Chinese and American militaries agreed to sign a memorandum
of understanding as soon as possible to strengthen crisis communication and prevention and continue
cooperation in the search for the remains of missing US military personnel in China.
Loaned? Yes. Every, every panda around the world with the exception of one panda is Chinese. That
one panda that is not Chinese is Mexican. Every panda around the world is technically a Chinese
national. So every panda that you see around the world has been loaned from the Chinese
government. And they take back those pandas. That's races. No, it's not. It's
literally true. There's only one panda on the planet that is not a Chinese
national. And that panda is Mexican. And the reason why that panda is Mexican is
because in the past, China didn't have a loner program. Okay. Yep, this is it. Her
Her mother, Tohi, died November 1993, and her father is Chicha from the London Zoo, died
in Mexico.
Shinshin is the only giant panda in the world that does not belong to China.
Shinshin can be visited for free during normal zoo hours.
Artificially inseminated with sperm from Chinese Panda Lingling as a part of the continuing
effort to breed pandas in Mexico, Mexico's Chupultepec Zoo, I'm fucking butchering that
spelling, I'm sorry, has one of the most successful panda breeding programs outside of China with
the total of eight giant pandas conceived in the zoo since the first pandas
arrived in Mexico.
How does it feel knowing you will never get she laughing like this?
Oh yeah, I saw this.
God, this was so embarrassing.
This element of the, the Chinese American summit was also incredibly
embarrassing like this guy literally this is our our this is our leader you know
this is the type of stuff that he is invested in it's the type of stuff that
gets him going
can you explain why you have instinctive knowledge about pandas easy I am
white Chinese
new from New York Times she should pay announced that a meeting with Trump that
China will send two painters to Atlanta Zoo, paint a diplomacy liberal soft power as a
cornerstone of U.S.-China relations, zoos pay big money to get the fur balls on loan,
which draw millions of fans.
G glazing Trump this much is oral loss, I agree, 100%.
But to be fair, to be fair to G, if the leader of your number one foreign adversary that's
like claim to be your foreign adversary is basically handing the world to you on a silver
platter.
Wouldn't you want to play ball?
You know what I mean?
It makes no sense for Xi Jinping to be unnecessarily antagonistic to Donald Trump.
Because Donald Trump is literally doing everything, everything in his power to make China the
Next hegemon accelerating the timeline
I'll be laughing my ass off to be like ha ha ha you're the funniest guy around mr. President keep doing what you're doing
But yeah, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna lie to you that is not a fake laugh
I've never seen Xi Jinping react like that
Last time I saw him smile like that was in front of the San Francisco
Francisco bridge that he took a photo in front of
I've never seen him smile like that. I've never seen him laugh that hard
It's also really funny like Trump just hitting smack in him in the arm like go on you like it, right?
He's laughing at the gesture
It's objectively funny that Trump has this shit up. Yes, it's funny if you're not American
It's not you're not supposed to be funny in the White House the White House is not for funny business, okay?
That's my problem because I look at this and I say this is outright embarrassing
Why is this happening? Why is this our White House? Why is this our president?
Okay, it is objectively hilarious, but you're not supposed to do hilarious things in the White House
It's funny in the sense that we are the joke we are the laughing stock of the world
And it's really interesting because this is exactly the type of attitude that Republicans used to claim Barack Obama
Was was bringing about you know
Do you understand Barack Obama Republicans say oh he went on an apology tour he has embarrassed us
around the world that's what they used to say about Barack Obama shoes on the other foot now
Now Trump is actually doing stuff that is genuinely embarrassing.
She sees frequent meetings with his American counterpart as an opportunity to probe for
weaknesses in the US position, says Mr. Pottinger.
Now the chairman of the China program at the foundation for defense of the markets, this
is CIA, this is the CIA front for the record, and it's really funny to say, yeah, no, he's
probing for weaknesses. Buddy, the weakness is the guy we elected. From the Chinese perspective,
there has never been a better president, okay? Never, ever, ever.
And for the record, his dealings with China that are not as antagonistic as his dealings with
China were and Trump won is good. This is objectively a good thing. I am, I am consistent
on this position, not treating as a, not treating China as a, as an adversary, but instead as a,
as a partner is the right way to go. So in that regard, I would go so far as to say so far what
Trump has done in terms of it's a, it's, it's rewriting of the China relationship is objectively
going to be a good thing for America's future. Only Nixon can go to China, only Trump can rewrite
our relationship with China.
This is hilarious because two weeks ago these same people were saying she was poisoned in India
was sick and was not going to make it to the U.S. and now they're saying he's a super spy. Yes,
Yes, Xi Jinping and I received the same level of scrutiny, which, you know, tells you, tells
you something about how stupid American politics and political discourse is, but there's never,
it's always, I'm on the verge of collapse. Every day Xi Jinping is collapsing any day now. China
is collapsing any day now. The enemy is both strong and weak at the same time. What's been
really funny about the Xi Jinping situation though, is the same as the Trump-Zoran alignment,
right? It makes Republicans go crazy. They can't speak out against Donald Trump.
So they're like, we don't understand why he's doing this. Why the fuck is he doing this? Because
Trump rarely ever does some shit that I would agree with.
I agree with at least the the top level back and forth and the principle of moving away
from treating China as an adversary. What is this?
I'm gonna hop
Cause like Marxist
Another Kazakh Marxist from recent visit.
I saw some people also in shock that she's wife is like so well spoken like has a perfect command over the English language.
Unlike Melania and it was really funny to me because it's like yeah, she's an idol dude
she's like a very well educated idol in China and
When Xi Jinping first met her and married her he was the guy who happened to
You know
Score such a famous idol
like it was it was it was actually impressive that Xi Jinping was able to marry her
then then the other way around
it's like having a fucking small town mayor uh getting married to a massive celebrity because
Because that's what happened.
Yes, she was way, way more famous than Xi Jinping when they got married.
Are you kidding me?
Yeah, Xi and his wife hold hands.
Trump and Melania do not.
Okay, they're not holding hands yet.
Boom.
from love at first sight to being together day and night she's you're picking his wife
paying you on have walked hand in hand for more than 30 years
also this is not first sight also she was a pretty good looking when he was younger
to be fair.
Ingram China needs us way more than we need China our economy is booming.
She was invited to this fucking... was what the fuck ages come on man he obviously doesn't
look as hot as he did when he was younger what the fuck rude visa denied.
Yeah, I don't think they care. Let's be real.
Americans who...
Hassanis women. Wait, no, I'm not talking about... I'm not talking about the idol.
I'm not talking about Ping Li-Yuan. I'm talking about Xi Jinping.
Daddy, Xi is at the apex of a sex appeal. Oh, did I say her?
I said, Xi, not Xi. Xi.
This is not hot. It's just aura you guys are mistaking hotness with aura
Do not wish to see China grow their financial or other types of influences in the United States
I think dude the cope is so strong the cope is so strong from republicans he's like ah
Trump is engaging an expert level 5d chess actually by basically giving China everything it wanted
Because let's be real
Things are not looking good for American prosperity
They should be ecstatic that Chinese CEOs did not come to the dinner or to these meetings
Does any of you want Chinese businesses to buy more of our farmland or our businesses no way?
I don't think China gives a fuck about buying our farm
This is such funny cope dude, yeah, no
Do we even want China to keep investing into the United States of America? Trump is literally on the timeline begging
After you see after you help me see past the anti China propaganda
It is really see it is really something to see this she and his wife actually care about each other
Whereas the shit done of our policies doesn't get okay, whatever dude. I don't know the extent of their their relationship
I'm not gonna be parasocial about you should paying and paying to you on
Okay
The truth is right now China needs us way more than we need China our economy is booming
Is it
Is it it's just oh god this cope is so good
said, it's so funny, they have to just be like, oh, actually, Trump mugged Xi by showing
him embarrassing things like the auto pen.
You know?
Very quickly.
It was totally unacceptable.
President Trump made that very clear again yesterday, and we're not letting it tie into
anything that we are doing or any commitments we have with Taiwan either.
A Chinese readout of the meeting said they hope the U.S. will, quote, adhere to the correct
position of opposing Taiwan independence and handle the issue with caution.
And today President Trump is expected to attend the Texas vs. Tennessee college football game,
but we're likely not to see any coverage of that because the White House declined to have
CNN join the press pool today.
Olivia thank you so much and the war with Iran is now and it's seven months
before we before we continue with the
What is this in 39 days are gonna vote for people cheering on extremists are the people cheering on for America again in
39 days you're gonna vote for the people cheering on the extremists or the people cheering for America and
250 years of Liberty Freedom
Constitutional Republic. It's as simple as that. He was
Yeah, what's interesting about the the next wave of attacks that I didn't even cover at this point was
They found me ranting about how I want to throw Chuck Schumer in prison
I was like we need to do a cultural revolution in the Democratic Party and throw Chuck Schumer in prison
and like
And I guess the the most common technique of the Republican Party now and in some liberals as well as they just be like
Like, my opponent is never capable of joking, utilizing metaphors, like, you know, using
hyperbolic language, no, everything that he's saying is a sincere advocacy.
Yeah, but it's funny because it's like Donald Trump ran on and won on, lager up!
But Trump is always joking when he says I'm crazy as shit. Yeah, I'm not the president.
You fucking dingus. Yeah, it's a little bit different when it's an official decree versus
a fucking powerless private citizen. Hello.
What are we doing? Yes, of course.
Of course, me saying shit is just sometimes me saying shit.
Whereas when the president is just saying shit, he's not just saying shit.
He commands the attention of the masses.
The bully part, the bully public is a powerful tool that the president deploys.
He needs to be way more responsible with his fucking speech and not only that but he also follows through on the shit he is saying
That's why these conversations are ridiculous. Yes, if I was in a position of power, I'd probably communicate a little bit differently. Okay
You are so dis streamer of the United States. Yeah
But yeah summit overall they agreed to extend their trues of the trade war by only by two months and they're gonna rediscuss
in November at APEC when Trump goes to China, mainland China, again, which is a big deal.
The leaders discussed the wars in the Middle East and Ukraine, but announced no apparent
advances of ending either conflict. They toasted each other, spoke loftily of partnership and
stability in relations, yet announced no concrete agreements on the most contentious issues,
the trade imbalance, the technology restrictions, and Taiwan. The trip was certainly a propaganda
boost for Mr. Shee, who has softcast himself as an equal to Mr. Trump on the world stage.
Okay. New York Times. You have to be reasonable. You cannot cover this stuff like your Fox
News. Okay. Like this sounds like I'm reading Fox News, like how Derjeet is trying to present
himself as an equal to Mr. Trump. He's not equal to Mr. Trump. I'm sorry to say this.
You could make an argument about like America's supremacy around the world in previous elections,
in previous formations, in previous administrations.
You can't say that anymore.
Like, what are we talking about?
This is delusional.
This is delusional.
And by that, I mean like Trump has also lowered the power of the position, both with his foreign
policy, both with his actions around the world, but also with his personal upkeep, okay?
is his own, you know, the way he talks, the way he moves around, like they are not equals.
One is actually a global leader that is trying to promote stability.
Whether you agree with it or not, doesn't matter.
That's the way others see it, right?
Other global leaders see it.
That's exactly the way that, you know, people around the world, our allies see it as well.
And one is Donald Trump.
He has molested everything and everyone.
Coverage of the summit was splashed across the front page of the People's Daily, the
Communist Party's mouthpiece, with images of Mr. Xi being honored, the White House,
the military flyover, and being greeted by Mr. Trump at joint pace.
Andrew's top trending hashtag on China's social media was about how rare it was for an American
president to receive a world leader on the Tarmac.
This is a story of validation of China's strength, it's seen as a point of arrival and adds Xi
Xi Jinping's effort to portray China as an equal partner, which has been the brass ring
the Chinese foreign policy for decades said, Evan Madarios, professor of Asian studies
at Georgetown University, was senior Asia director on the National Security Council
under President Barack Obama.
The summit served Mr. Xi's purpose in a more subtle but important way.
He used verbal finesse to suggest that Mr. Trump was sympathetic to Beijing's positions,
even if members of Mr. Trump's own administration disagree with them.
Notably, Mr. Shee appeared to imply that Mr. Trump had shifted closer to Beijing's views on Taiwan,
including that the island's government is scheming for independence, continues stability in relations between China and the United States.
He indicated rested on Mr. Trump, heating Chinese positions. So here's what it is.
Here's what it is.
Donald Trump, at a high level response, is actually doing things.
in a very heterodox manner, going against basically the last four decades of China policy, or at least
certainly the last, I would say, two decades of China policy. This is true.
Okay, he is doing it.
He is actually rewriting the script in a meaningful way, and that's precisely the reason why you saw a lot of
commentary, a lot of leaks, for example, you saw a lot of demonstrations, you know, like the Uighur Tibet stuff.
stuff. That was a pretty prominent. That's a big deal, right? Because those are the types
of things that happen that are seen as like embarrassing from the hosting party, right?
It didn't happen in San Francisco, for example, but it happened in D.C. this time around.
A lot of that stuff is allowed or pushed for by those who disagree with the Trump's
attitude on China, right? That's number one. Number two, there were a lot of media hits.
Donald Trump lost F 35 fighter jet components. Trump's administration lost F 35 fighter jet
components that got rerouted to Hong Kong by accident. There were a lot of critical,
There was a lot of critical coverage on, you know, Donald Trump sending newer microchips to China.
This was also a big point of contention. There was a lot of critical coverage from China Hawks
within the State Department, and also some in the Democratic Party as well. The progressive
Elizabeth Warren signed this bizarre statement that People's Republic of China presents a greater
threat to American security and prosperity than ever before.
According to public reporting, Chinese entities are providing the Iranian regime in its terrorist
proxies with satellite imagery, technology and battlefield intelligence that target and
kill American service members.
Oh, this was the other thing that they were talking about. Yeah, they're like China's giving satellite technology to Iran
This is like killing american service members. How dare you how dare you speak to a foreign adversary?
And it's really interesting because like american intervention in china has been far more direct than like simply leaning into
uh proxy
Battles that america has decided the wage
right
like far more direct
This would be equivalent to
If there was free press in China, which there isn't let's be real
But if this would be like
Contestuous news reporting about Xi Jinping's visit to China that featured that that talked about America as like funding and facilitating
atom
Terrorism in Xinjiang, you know what I mean?
Like America has long been an advocate for supporting acts of terror on mainland China on domestic Chinese soil
By funding and facilitating Uighur separatist movements
America has added direct involvement in the loss of Chinese lives and Xi Jinping is here, you know,
trying to do diplomacy with a country that openly celebrates antagonism against China and many of
China's allies, a country that is now directly responsible for so much instability in the Asia
Pacific region, why is Xi Jinping doing this? Right? It would be the same argument, if not
a more direct approach that America has played in trying to cause instability inside of China,
as opposed to what we claim China is doing to us. Okay?
You can't compare Iran to Item. No, I'm not. I'm simply saying that America has had more
direct participation in Chinese instability than China has in terms of aiding and abetting
its allies, offering strategic intelligence to its allies and the like.
My point is they obviously know all of that and still continue to formalize normal relations
with America, whereas America does all of that and then still turns around and says like
how dare they come to us and we have a normal relationship.
Anti-China diaspora isn't even that much of a constituency, what do you mean?
Militarism against China is the military-industrial complex position and Elizabeth Warren, given
You know, her position as a senator from Massachusetts has always been pretty openly pro-military industrial complex.
How else can you terrify boomers and justify rerouting so much of our productive output, so much of our resources back to the military industrial complex?
complex. Yeah, like they're even amongst the Chinese diaspora, the position against China
has changed dramatically, because they feel a sense of excitement about China's prominence
around the world. Okay. Like I see this even with Taiwanese people, where on the one hand,
they obviously don't like the people's Republic of China. They don't like the Communist Party.
It's understandable. They're, you know, they are from Taiwan, right? But also, on the other hand,
they still see it as like a Han Chinese victory, that there's like so much more prominence for
China around the world. And they still feel a sense of pride, if you will.
It's an interesting dynamic because on the one hand they really don't fuck with the Communist Party and
And you know many of which especially living in the United States of America want Taiwanese independence
But also at the same time they're like still proud because Chinese people doing shit. You know what I mean
It's almost like a like an ethnic pride
So yes to answer your question there isn't a lot of like appetite amongst the Chinese diaspora with the exception of like actual psychos
Like what's that guy's name?
You know former dissidents that were big business owners in China that escaped with all of their with as much as their wealth as possible
To the United States of America or like fallen gong weirdos, you know, like the psychotic cultists over at fallen gong
There isn't really like a big
No, Jack Ma doesn't fit that. I'm talking about Gordon Chang
um jack ma does not fit this uh profile at all jack ma was uh was was very critical but jack ma
still very much uh lives i believe still lives in mainland china if i'm not mistaken
it's uh it's i kind of understand that uh you know tribalistic uh uh ethnic not vanity necessarily
but pride because I experienced it as well. There's plenty of Turks who don't like my position on
the Armenian genocide, on Kurdish liberation, but at the same time, they kind of like that
they kind of like that a Turkish American is doing the damn thing, if that makes sense.
Like broadly speaking, they see it as like cool.
Anyway, I do find this jingoistic, this kind of sentiment, it's pure American chauvinism.
It's not helpful in this moment.
And these are the instances where like the American Democratic Party should be less aggressive
in their saber-rattling towards China and maybe even more conciliatory to the tone that
Trump is taking to say, look, he's a fucking psycho. He's ruining everything. He's actually
elevated China's position and prominence around the globe. But at the same time,
a move in the right direction, who's treat China as an even partner, as an equal partner in the
main stage, rather than a foreign adversary unnecessarily antagonizing China, even when
it's responsible for 30% of all of our trade, is the appropriate measure to take.
The Chinese military continues its pressure campaign against our vital Democratic partner
Taiwan as President Trump has retreated from longstanding security commitments. Beijing
also serves as the lifeline for Putin's brutal war machine in Ukraine, providing technology
and oil revenue. Moscow needs to manufacture the precision missiles and drones that terrorize
Ukraine's cities. President Trump must end China's success on to the advanced chips
and manufacturing equipment, it needs to build dangerous AI systems. He must stand with Taiwan
and not let China veto America's support for Taiwan's defense. He must press President Xi
to stop supporting Putin's war in Ukraine. Finally, he must confront President Xi about the
resource Beijing has given Iran that have led to the killing of American service members. Dear
Lord if that's progressive I'd rather think what reactionary looks like. Yeah, this was the
message that they put out on the American Foreign, I mean the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
Shaheen Kuhn's Reed Warner Warren and Kim statement ahead of President Xi Jinping's
state visit. Not great. Not great. Is this what we, as the anti-Trump flank, is this the message
that the Democratic Party wants to present, that they are going to outflank the Republicans on
reactionary sentiment, that they want to be the party that has ownership over waging war with China?
very very dumb. I always ask myself like who is this for and I know who this is
for obviously these people on the foreign relations committee it's for the
military industrial complex if you want to know who they're speaking to and it
doesn't make sense it doesn't make sense because like just open your fucking
eyes, you know, open your goddamn eyes. This is a country that is growing in prominence.
This is a country that whose global footprint is nowhere near as as warmongering as ours.
Okay. That's just the truth. Not to say China is great. It's the best country or anything
like that. But like we have thousands of military bases around the world. We're constantly fucking
waging war, they're not. And the fraction of, you know, saber rattling that they engage
in, we treat as the utmost like severe, we treat as though it's like the utmost, most
severe act of violence that you could engage in, that any country could ever engage in.
The example I use is like the Chinese Coast Guard, you know, ramming Filipino fishing
boats or whatever, or even like the border battle that they wage with India with literal
sticks and fucking stones. They talk about this stuff as though it's like a severe violation.
Meanwhile, we are assassinating foreign leaders. We're kidnapping the leaders heads of state
of sovereign countries. We're stealing all of their resources and then openly celebrating
that like we're doing in Venezuela. We are choking a country 90 miles off of our coastline.
We're choking them the death by implementing an unjustifiable oil blockade that has crippled
their energy grid. It blows my mind. Okay, but these sticks are more like Halbert's
law dude they're literally using sticks and stones what are you talking about
there's like I think in the in the cross-border battles that have taken
place there've been like 20 total deaths or some shit these are very populous
countries right India and China both in China in China when there is like a in
China when there's any sort of instability the death toll is usually
like a million plus okay they have fucking 1.4 billion people same with
India the fact that there's only like a handful of deaths implies that it's not
like a real you know significant consequential battle
it's like a joke especially in comparison to what you know we have done
around the world like you're talking about this you're doing the thing that
I'm talking about, like you're talking about this.
You see 24 souls were killed in a brawl fought with sticks and stones in the Ladakh region
in India's northwest in 2020.
These are both nuclear armed nations.
Okay, they're both they got nukes.
What are we talking about?
They got nukes.
They got sufficient military firepower.
They're fighting each other in the fucking border with literal sticks.
Okay.
I'm sorry. This is this is a ridiculous thing to consistently complain about. Okay?
More people have died in amusement parks in the US. Yeah, exactly. It's fucking crazy
crazy.
Conserving munitions, you think India and China have to conserve their munitions?
That's why they're using sticks and stones?
Neither of these countries need to conserve their munitions.
do it. No, it's a deliberate, uh, the way to, to, uh, yes, not make it a bigger, more consequential thing.
Yeah, they just don't want to escalate into a real battle between two nuclear armed nations with,
you know, sufficient military firepower. Anyway, yeah, that's just how they decided to do it.
But the reason why I brought that up is because like think about the way we treat
Like any kind of slight or any kind of initiative from the Chinese side here in American media
Versus how we have murdered more than 230 fishermen off the coastline of Latin American countries like what are we fucking talking about?
We're everywhere all at once and we're murdering people we're slaughtering them and then we go oh when China does this
this is the biggest, this is the most impactful thing of all time. The comparison that I have made
between what Benjamin Netanyahu has done to the Palestinians, a genocide, a continuation of apartheid
and occupation, versus what Xi Jinping did in Xinjiang. If Xi Jinping's policies in Xinjiang
were implemented by Benjamin Netanyahu in Palestine right now, okay, where Palestinians
have the opportunity to freely travel. And there were dragnecks that were implemented,
where a lot of palestinians were placed under constant surveillance, where they went to a
reeducation camp, but they didn't like, you know, blow up every fucking building.
Americans will be demanding the Benjamin and you'll get a Nobel Peace Prize.
Okay. That is the dynamic at play here. I personally find what the
Xi Jinping's Xinjiang policies were to be, you know, unfathomable, unconscionable. I think it was illegal as well.
Having said that, it is not even a comparison. There's not even a comparison between what Benjamin Danyou was doing in the West Bank in comparison to what she did in Xinjiang.
When China does it, we consider it to be the utmost, the most like unacceptable thing that a country is doing when our foreign allies do it.
When our foreign allies do it, it's far worse shit than it's like perfectly acceptable.
When we do it, it's totally acceptable.
But yeah, China-Hakari is gone.
It's done.
It's going the way of support for Israel.
Americans who feel more cold than warm towards China.
U.S. adults 34% very cold 20% someone cold 27% neutral somewhat warm is that 12% very warm is that 7%
Okay
This used to be far worse
So even in the United States of America
Even in the United States of America the attitude is shifting AOC makes a stop at what Apple Fest in Ithaca
nice yeah she's over there she's trying to be me bro it's fun
cultural artifacts and architecture remember when people were mad that China
was renovating moss we are still supposed to be more mad about that than the
leveling of Gaza
Anyway, your position as a anti-China hawk in this community is going to be very valuable
in the next decade or so as China's prominence continues to rise.
As America is forced to reckon with its inability to continue treating China as a foreign adversary,
attitudes in the hill will change. Remember that. For the last decade, I've been pushing
this line and everyone has been yelling at me for it, okay?
America's supremacy, America's military primacy, America's status as the hegemonic superpower
drowned in the Persian Gulf. Going forward, cooler minds will prevail when it comes to
American posture. I know it, because it's impossible. Now that we have been defeated by Iran, a country
that is nowhere near as powerful as China, there's 0% chance that America tries to even wage war
with China in any meaningful capacity. And as a matter of fact, now China can come back and say,
look, we have to, you know, we have to redesign your Taiwan policy and America will eventually say yes.
Yo, Netanya Hussi said your name. Netanya Hussi. That's crazy.
In any case, let's get to our designated situation monitoring.
Iran enters seventh month as fuel prices and mortgage rates soar.
Impact here at home.
Fuel costs are soaring and it all comes as mortgage rates are hitting a 20-month high.
ABC's Alex Prashay joins us to break it all down.
Good morning, Alex.
Good morning, Rachel.
Yeah, the war with Iran continues to have an impact here at home.
So let's do a quick economy checkup.
The national average for a gallon of regular sits at $4.47.
That's according to GasBuddy.
And that's up nearly 40 cents over last month and up $1.50
since this war.
100,000 young Americans go to China.
They want you.
I know.
She says China invite 100,000 young Americans
to visit China for exchanges, study over the next five years.
This is kind of fucked up because I'm 35.
And I feel like I don't fit the bill of a young American.
You know?
Like what's how young is young?
Like are we talking 35?
Like in 35 year olds participate in this program.
It says young bro.
I mean, 35 is like the new 25.
I'm young.
I'm young in both mind, heart and soul.
Wait, it goes up to 45?
It goes up to 45.
Let's fucking go.
Hey yo.
Hey yo.
I
Young man here
It seems there's good news for the unks wondering if they counted as young
13 to 45 year olds this fucking go dude. Let's call dude
What's up? Hell yeah.
Look, gradually be safer in China, I know it's not my business.
Yeah, everyone would be safer in China. There's no guns.
Like that's not really saying much.
But like it's like saying I'll be safer in Western Europe. Yeah, I know it's true because you know gun control
That's automatically you like think about that as an American as an American no matter where you go
in most places around the world unless it's like a
Unless they could develop in country with like a lot of firearms. You're probably going to be automatically safer
I mean I was saying gun control but yes you're right no guns for civilians period but gun
control also in like Switzerland for example.
My grandma thought Japan was unsafe for me to go to because it wasn't America that's
so funny thinking japan is unsafe is hilarious dude
do you think that's why you invade everywhere so the troops can be safe
yeah
you've been real solid about this buddy
yeah i watched this uh i look it gives me no pleasure to report this as a singaporean
import exporter. I did watch this harrowing video of a bulk carrier in a fishing boat colliding in
the waters near the Singapore Strait. It turns out even the Strait of Malacca is unsafe. Okay,
I hate it. As you guys know, this is, this hurts my soul. Okay, I love shipping. I love logistics.
I love commerce and I love the beautiful city state of Singapore. So from that perspective this this hits
Virtually
Everything
That I care about that's near and dear to my heart. Let's watch
The only thing that makes me less safe than watching shipping get impeded by a unfortunate
collision is more Pegasus, the immigrant living in Singapore that is consistently slandering
Myself and this community who love import and exports
I
Do it utter devastation utter devastation. I mean look at this. I mean look at this man
Both crews are safe
That was your ship? No. We have stopped using the Singaporean ports in this community as
shippers. We have stopped using the Singaporean ports because the city-state of Singapore
is unfortunately not safe for us due to the significant slander that I have received from
an immigrant living in Singapore that has a YouTube channel that routinely defames me.
That's right.
it. Aspiring shipping magnate here my heart is broken mine too. Every day.
BREAKING Iran has launched anti-ship missiles from Shedik in southern Iran towards vessels
under USS Gordon the US back southern Omani corridor the Shredi Hormuz. Also, Iran deployed
ballistic cruise missiles, anti-ship cruise missiles for the first time ever a couple
weeks ago and it has led to something very interesting. It turns out that our aircraft
carriers in the region that are participating in the blockade of Iranian vessels and all
vessels that stop in Iranian ports, they had to push back outside of the range of Iranian
anti-ship cruise missiles. Yeah, so they actually moved the blockade further along the line.
But that has not stopped Iran from launching anti-ship missiles from Shidagin in southern
Iran towards vessels under US escort in the US-backed southern Omani corridor, the Shade
of Hormuz, with large scale explosions heard in the straight over the past hour, and at
at least one oil tanker confirmed hit per initial reports.
Local sources say a serious naval conflict is ongoing tonight.
The explosions in the past few hours are in the double digits with further explosions
minutes ago around Kesham Island.
And what's really interesting?
They're emailing Iran apologizing.
Wait, what?
Ships in the Shreddo Hormoz are emailing Iran and apologizing for transiting through
the unauthorized routes and blame the charterer for forcing them to take the route. The email
has some white redacted parts containing names, etc.
To the esteemed officials of the PGSA Persian Gulf Strait Authority, we are the disponent
owners of the vessel and are writing to formally submit our sincere apology and explanation
regarding the vessel's unauthorized transit, oh my god.
That is crazy.
You think the US had ships hit and are hiding and I saw a new report on Navy injuries?
Yes.
The answer to your question is yes.
The Pentagon quietly added 29 Navy sailors and 8 Marines to the Iran War casualty count.
The Pentagon's public tally of troops wounded during the Iran War was quietly increased
by 37 this week without explanation from the Defense Department.
The increase includes 29 Navy sailors and 8 Marines, according to a review of Pentagon's
public database of personnel killed and wounded during U.S. conflicts and other military operations
overseas.
The web portal is called Defense Casualty Analysis System, or DECAS.
The answer to your question is, yes, apps of fucking Lutley.
There were already some reports that came out.
There were already some reports that came out that American service members were on a ship
that Iran was able to successfully target.
They were wounded in the process.
This was two weeks ago, or a week ago, if I recall correctly.
That to me is a clear indication that either the US Navy is directly trying to navigate
the ships or trying to push the ships out of the Shred of Hormuz from the southern Omanicos
and I'll punch the brown out of you.
Does that mean you're going to do some kinky stuff?
I'm confused.
Like you're going to punch my butt.
That's kind of gay dog.
You want to fist me?
Is that what it is?
I don't have any issues because I take fiber supplements, but thank you for the suggestion.
He's gonna tongue punch my fart box
It seems
You're such a shithead
I'm not I'm not in favor of scape at play at all
I'm doubtful. We see it on a satellite, but US vessel is hit more like US Navy point defense personnel think 50 Kallin shoulder anti air rockets on boats and tankers contracted to the Saudis Bahrainis or Qataris. Yeah, I'm saying is one or the other.
But what remains to be true is that U.S. Navy personnel, Defense Department personnel are on
these ships. They're either on these ships or they're on these carrier or they're literally the ones
who are manning the ships or they are towing the ships with a naval asset that is being targeted.
by Iran successfully, either or. But what is not in dispute is that more U.S. Navy personnel
are now being added quietly to the casualty count. Okay? Could be from a direct hit on
a U.S. base used by the Navy and Marines like Camp Tittin and Jordan or Bahrain, a U.S. Navy
ship or on board the oil tanker transiting the Shredo Hormuz no public explanation from
the Pentagon. Yes, exactly. I mean, that's it could be any of those things.
So that's the situation. And yet, while there is a serious naval conflict happening, while
ships in the Shredda Hormuz are emailing Iran and apologizing to the Persian Gulf Strait
Authority for utilizing the American Omani route off the Omani coastline and getting
fucking peppered with Iranian rock of fire.
Gas is $4.47 per gallon, about to be $5, and diesel is $6.48 a gallon.
about to be seven dollars per gallon. And yet, while Donald Trump, or while all this is happening,
and people are screaming at Donald Trump to put an end to this war, including Trump allies and
Trump loyalists like Mike Rogers running for Senate in the state of Michigan, who has now
changed his attitude about waging war with Iran after 20 years of demanding it,
are now saying we should put an end to this war immediately. Donald Trump earlier today while
the Iranians are still in New York City has decided to reject the memorandum of understanding.
Or began. The price for a gallon of diesel is sitting at $6.48 a gallon. And those higher
fuel prices impact everything from food to construction. And now a new study found that
U.S. consumer sentiment fell this month to a four-month low across political parties as
more and more Americans worry about higher prices impacting their wallets. And in the housing market,
mortgage rates continue to climb. The average top-tier 30-year fixed mortgage jumped up 7.49%.
That's more than a full percentage point higher than a year ago. Economists warn that those rates
continue to climb towards 8%. But the one bright spot went the stock market.
Bro, I'm telling you Iran is the is the most like Iran has more confidence in the Democratic Party
Than the Democratic Party has confidence in itself
Okay, I
Don't even like this is one of the most insane situations. I've ever seen where Donald Trump is basically throwing
Like, Donald Trump is straight up deciding to destroy the Republican Party at the behest
of Israel, at the best of like maintaining this failed notion of American military primacy,
American military supremacy.
I don't even know, I don't even know what is going on at this point.
It just makes no, it makes no sense.
I heard you see is the Democratic Party's most loyal soldier. I know I'm gonna jokingly refer to this and then people are gonna
Clip it and then put it on Fox news below
What's on piker says the I a tola loves the Democrats I a tola loves Nancy Pelosi or whatever the fuck they're gonna do
But the reality still remains
Yeah, no one believes in the Democrats more than the country of Iran is true
You're a traitor to Americans that are now struggling thanks to at POTUS.
How do you destroy Western Capital in Western Empires and can you please vote blue?
Blue. Yeah. The new Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah, or the new Supreme Leader of Iran,
Most of our how many issues of fatwa vote blue no matter who
Okay
All three major indices closed up on friday. All right, we'll take that silver lining. Thank you. Alex appreciate
The moment you're like these people must be stressed out. Um, wondering what's gonna happen with their properties. Me time the wash
Why is Mehdi in the trenches?
Shannon Watts, I am once again asking high profile male political podcasters and punters
to call it the harassment and misogyny running rampant in the damn party.
You just did a friendly show with Destiny who's been accused of all sorts of horrific misogynist
things so maybe don't do sanctimonious tweets randomly attacking Bernie Sanders who hasn't
been accused of such things.
Yeah, it's pretty funny for Shannon Watts to just be like, oh, as a woman, I'm under attack by horrifying misogynistic attacks.
And that's why I went on the Destiny stream, amidst an ongoing legal battle where Destiny took and distributed revenge pornography to a person who was a minor in exchange for child sexual abuse material.
Okay? Like, you cannot argue that you are oblivious to this reality. You cannot, because I know that you have hidden the responses from tens of thousands of people that have told you that this is what's going on.
You also can't even maintain a posture about gun control when this sex cult leader, sex
Pestini, prominently featured an R-15 and a shotgun behind him throughout the duration
of your conversation.
Yeah.
I like that they hit this with a context and I said the assault rifles in the background
She's already pro a pack might as well be pro NRA as well
Shannon Watts founded mom's demand action to fight gunbiles and oppose the NRA. She has repeatedly states. She opposes a pack
Oh, she states it
Okay, great context note, dude
Oh, if she states it then that's fine
Liberal champion of women's rights and defender of Israel Shannon Watts with destiny a freak credibly accused of engaging a revenge porn
Like there's literally guns in the background
Even first got interested in getting a gun license because he wanted to murder a kid in his family because he was D tossing him and he couldn't stream by the way
Yeah, I remember
The guy who defended most famously defended Kyle Rittenhouse
It goes to show you
It goes to show you that these people have no real principles, right? Like they don't they don't care. It's just a talking point for them
Like there is no greater destruction of one's personal credibility
than doing this then aligning with this person and it goes to show what I've been saying over and over again they
on the liberal consulting side do not oppose me because of
How I speak or because of the language that I deploy they oppose me because of what I say
They are in disagreement with my worldview with your worldview. They do not like that. We are anti-Israel
They do not like that. We are anti-Zionist
They do not like that we're pro-medicare for all.
These are all issues that they do not care about.
They do not like that we are a thorn on their side.
They do not like that if our worldview advances, and if more and more Democrats, okay?
If more and more Democrats represent the interests of the masses rather than the interests of
corporations, then their argument falls apart, then their clout goes away.
Their clout within Washington, D.C., not necessarily their clout amongst the masses.
They don't give a shit.
Ketterman is basically saying he's going to change political parties and he even defended
Laura Loomer.
First, it was near attended and now Destiny's out here ranting and raving about how it's
cringe to call Laura Loomer racist and Islamophobic.
Talking point is Qatari paid, I'm guessing.
Maybe.
Also, this Islamophobic shit is so fucking cringe, dude.
We're fucking Muslim dudes who are fucking the wajahit dude and
Medi Hasan and shit who'd like pull this your racist and Islamophobic and racist and Islamophobic and racist and Islamophobic
Why excuse me? Are you okay, bro?
I don't know where he said it's cringe to call Laura Loomer races in Islamophobic, but
What is this? Mark Levin laments that he went to a little Italian restaurant for lunch
after Nenyao's fantastic UN speech and the friendly conservative Italian owner he's
known for 25 years told him you know I'm troubled by the photos I've seen of Israeli
soldiers murdering babies. It's messed up man. He's losing the conservative Italian business
owner. Anyway, where the fuck were we? Oh, we were doing situation monitoring. Let's
Let's see how, let's see how Fox News is covering Donald Trump rejecting Iran's ceasefire proposal.
Journal now reporting President Trump has rejected Iran's proposal for a seven-day ceasefire,
and the Commander-in-Chief expects to resume strikes after the November midterms.
Madeline Rivera is live in Washington with the details.
Good morning, Maddie.
Hi, good morning.
President Trump has been skeptical of Iran's ability to follow through on a deal.
The level of the potential strikes are unclear.
But the Wall Street Journal also reports there's still a possibility the president could change
his mind.
The U.S. and Iran are still negotiating through mediators, though.
They engage in talks on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly this week.
Citing people familiar with the matter, the Wall Street Journal says Iran broached the
idea of a seven-day pause in fighting in exchange for lifting the U.S. blockade in the Strait
for moose. But President Trump reportedly does not want to lift the embargo as the U.S. tries to
squeeze Iran's economy. Oil is now reaching the markets with the straits and that's going to
continue to grow. At the same time Iran is getting nothing out because our blockade is tight grip.
Nothing is coming out. So they're not benefiting. More oil is coming out for the world. No oil is
coming out for Iran and they are facing increasing crippling sanctions that are really harming their
economy. The leadership in Iran is fractured and there are hardliners in the regime like the IRGC
who have resisted U.S. negotiations. Iran's president, Mezut Pazashkyan, meantime, says Iran
will keep defending itself. We will keep resisting until the very end. Yes, we do have economic
issues, certainly, but in order to remain, we will go through any hardship and endure. If America
thinks that they could keep sanctioning us and that we will surrender, they could take that into
to their dreams.
Pazushka indicated in that interview with Brett Bayer,
Tehran would be open to lowering its enrichment levels
and allowing outside verification in order
to ease nuclear tensions.
Charlie Rachel Ingram.
All right, Maddy.
Thanks, Maddy.
Thank you very much.
Be sure to like and subscribe for all the.
Mr. President, thank you for making time.
So I listened to this whole interview.
And ironically enough, CBS was being called.
Do you reckon Mossad watches your streams?
Yes.
100% dog Benjamin Inia, who mentioned me by name at the UN General Assembly.
What the fuck do you think?
Not only do I believe that Mossad is watching the streams, I suspect that
they're also tapping my phone lines and everything else as well.
Yes.
I suspect that I am under constant surveillance. I don't think it's that crazy.
Your speech in Texas has to be stopped, but this is fine. What is this?
Now, National Social's movement with local police on standby continue to prepare for their
Prosper Texas Rally Tech Crews, Gigabit and ChemPacks, and of all may statements trying
to get a Sompiger Speed B canceled this upcoming week, but here's a Nazi Rally with Police
Protection.
You would know if you were the target of advance power on your phone, at least Apple is a state
nation actor threat detection and notifies you if you're the target of it.
Don't buy the iPhone or a soda stream. I'm not buying a soda stream, but you know,
I don't know if I'm, I don't know if iPhone tells you if you had, if you got targeted with Pegasus.
Yeah, Mike Rogers, TV ads in Michigan no longer feature you at least as far as I've seen. Yeah,
Yeah, I think they saw the New York Times-Siena poem and were like, this fucking failed.
And I will say this much.
I will say this much.
It could also be because Benjamin and Danielle mentioned me, I don't know, but here's what
I will say.
Okay.
You want your opponents to make a mistake.
I will dive on that sword if it means that only I receive reputational damage and Abdul
Al Sayed is capable of delivering his economic agenda in the process.
I said this in the beginning as well.
Okay?
Not only am I the sin eater and the tank for endless amounts of enmity from all of the
the shithead neckbeards on the internet, for all things woke, for all things left.
But also, I can be the same tank, it seems, for a nationally or maybe even internationally
consequential Senate race.
So that is just the reality.
Why doesn't your upper lip ever move?
I don't know.
Maybe because I have a mustache.
Bad optics.
Local veterans and nurses slam Mike Rogers for supporting Iran's war.
war in iran saying that they're not buying his 11th hour election because it wasn't
it wasn't too long ago that he was behind everything as far as the war.
This war has put fuel prices where you see them today.
I can't put diesel in my truck because I can't afford $6.79 a gallon.
The site and fuel costs has led some republicans to soften their stance on the war, including
U.S. Senate candidate Mike Rogers who said this this week.
The war with Iran needs to end and quickly.
Yeah, they're cooking his ass in this, by the way.
This was a big mistake for him,
because I think it, once you recognize
that it's been a failure, now the media, as I said,
hopefully they would, okay?
Now they are also talking about how hypocritical he is.
is
i think uh... andrew k file came out did a whole piece on cnn
but it does energy costs will plummet
however protesters here in lansing aren't buying it
i'd like to say they finally got some courage
but i think they just realized that which way the wind's blowing
i'm not really buying it at this point
it wasn't too long ago that he was you know behind everything as far as in the war
Kimberley Bogan is an em

It hurts everything from

of our life, every look and brandy and people have got to realize that we need more empathy
just because it doesn't affect me doesn't mean I shouldn't be concerned.
Here for you in Lansing, David Sack.
Yeah, here's the K file piece on it.
Aaron Burnett out front covered it as well.
I tried to boost it a little bit, but I look, I don't want to put my conspiracy hat on.
but I don't know if it's the new Twitter algorithm or whatever it is but
anytime I attack my groggers the reach is stunted if you go back and look at my
if you go back and look at you know all my tweets any instance where attack my
groggers gets very limited attention in comparison to other shit I mean even me
like shitting on near attendent got more likes than shitting on Mike Rogers yeah
multi-millionaire complains about video games being woke is the biggest crisis things black
people should shut up about chattel slavery and its historic contemporary contributions 38,000 likes
me saying i'm uh you know i have flight delays 14,000 likes shonanity 7,000 likes
me attacking a Republican keep posting this shit dumbass we're instituting a diesel export ban by the way logis is right
they hit a dead haul due to your fc class president's servility to Israel boom 9,000,000 likes
and I wonder what it is I wonder if it's just because it's like boring to attack my grojars or if there's something going on
on. But, um, any time. Look, Mike Rogers wanted Trump to wage war with Iran for 20 years.
Because he got his wish with Trump, 5K likes, 5.9K likes.
It's crazy.
Mike Rogers wanted war with Iran for 20 years.
He hated when Obama signed the JCPOA to halt Iran in enrichment.
He got his war of choice and now he thinks he can run away from it.
won't let him 3,000 likes. Anything and everything you say about my
Grodgers gets limited. And I don't know if it's because my Grodgers has no motion
or if he's boring or anything like that. Or, or there is like a like a little bit
of a operation. Mike Rogers is laughably corrupted. It has to be the algo. Yeah. I think you're
just being paranoid. I'll do gets good numbers when it's about Mike. Yeah, maybe to be fair
for Elon Musk, who is quietly this time around spending hundreds of millions of dollars funding
certain Republicans in certain races. Is it that far-fetched to assume that he would also tweak
the algorithm a little bit? I don't know.
Yeah, Michigan GOP Senate candidate makes shielding Elon Musk campaign focus.
When you stand with my Senate campaign today, you are directly shielding Elon Musk, the
Michigan Republican, said in a fundraising email.
Elon Musk is wading into the Michigan Senate race, boosting Mike Rogers and attacking Abdel
Al-Sayed.
So there is direct intervention from Elon.
Senate nominee, former Congressman Mike Rogers, is out with a new ad, calling for an end to
the Iran War.
to bring prices down. The war with Iran needs to end and then quickly as we go more popular
than Mike Rogers. I mean on Twitter probably because he's Elon Musk's steak sucker. What
Is this two links that will activate anti-roach mobilization?
Oh yeah, I saw this.
This is fucking, wow shit that he's doing, right?
He has to fuck everything up.
Anyway, let's continue talking about Mike Rogers now.
Well, it's familiar.
That's because it is.
Here's Rogers two years ago in a nearly identical outfit
and what appears to be the same grocery store chain.
But last time he ran for Senate.
This is your grocery cart under a trunk economy.
This is your grocery cart under a Biden-Karris economy.
Take no, no bet.
Ouch.
Same candidate, same grocery store pitch,
but this time the culprit is the war, not Biden.
Out front tonight, CNN's Andrew Kaczynski,
who along with the K-File team,
did a deep dive on Roger's record on Iran,
which makes this call to end the war there,
the war there even more notable. He's obviously a very respected foreign policy
voice in Washington. Okay so what did you find here? I mean you are right the
similarities between these two ads is remarkable. Ouch is right too. You saw the
very small grocery cart from the last ad. Nearly identical outfit. Definitely the
same grocery chain. Then he blamed Bayern-Harris. Now it's the war and here in
lies the problem for Rogers and many Republicans is he strongly supported this
war from the beginning and I brought a lot of receipts showing that I want
people to look at what he posted on the day the war began he put quote Iran is
an imminent threat to our country and must not have a nuclear weapon now a
few weeks later asked about the war he said this stick listen what do you make
of the war that we're in. Well it's probably long overdue. Bro. Bro. Marco Bransetic on
Jacobin covered Mike Rogers' 20 year career extensively by the way. I don't even think
K file goes deeper into the deep dives, but he has been agitating begging for a war
with Iran
for 20 years since 2006. Okay. It is incredible how hard he got his wish. He was begging for it.
He got his wish and now he's like, uh, maybe it's not the best idea
Okay, jacobin wrote this, uh, marco bruncetic and jacobin wrote this mark and my car just pushed for war with the wrong for two decades
Uh, I read this entire piece on my broadcasts
It's very good
And the thing about mainstream outlets is like they love
When they can pin
a republican down on hypocrisy. They love that shit, okay? It's their number one thing.
So even if they didn't cover it up until this moment, now that this dumbass openly came out
against the war with Iran, now there's a narrative that they can lean into.
A straightforward like, you know, Mike Rogers wanted to wage war with Iran and he got his
wishes across that's not fun that's not a fun story people don't give a shit about it but once
there is a hypocrisy associated with it because he came out and now is saying oh we should end
this war now all of a sudden it's a media narrative so let's see how hard they fucking hit him on this
you heard him right there saying Aaron that it's long overdue and now uh the idea of setting needs
to you heard him right there saying Aaron that it's long overdue and now uh that he says the war
it needs to end quickly. But back in March, we found he actually pushed back on the idea
of setting an end date for all of this. Take a listen to what he said then.
People say, well, what date is it going to end? It shouldn't be a date. It should be
conditional. And this is why Americans need to stop for a minute, come together and say,
let's get this done, get it done right. Now, by April, we found he was predicting
that it would be over quickly. He said on one show that we found, quote, we're not going
to do this forever. He also said the war had left Iran's military, quote, toothless, and
called the war, quote, again, the best opportunity for peace in the Middle East I've ever seen
in my lifetime.
All right. So that is obviously a massive shift. And that ad is truly incredible. So
as prices have gone up, right, which is why he ends up in the situation he's in now with
the ad, did he acknowledge that cost, that link between the war and prices?
Well, he did, Aaron, but he did keep back in the war.
Let's listen to what he said in May.
Obviously, the Iran issue has caused gas prices to a better.
Everybody gets me drives to work every day, you know, feel that pain for sure.
I also support that Iran should not have a nuclear weapon.
And as recently in July, we found he said he didn't mind giving the president the authority
to keep the war going even as he said he wanted to quote have him wrap it up so
less than two months ago he was still willing to give more front more time on
the war this all comes less than six weeks before Rogers faces Democrat
Abdul El Sayed who has strongly condemned the war polls have shown a very tight
race between the two now we put all this to Rogers camp we asked a spokesman
for his campaign for comment they pointed to comments that he made at a press
conference addressing his ad calling to end the war where he said we've been
pretty patient on this timeline. I think the best option now is to wind it
down. There's still other things you can do to make sure that they can't hurt
their neighbors and can't pursue a nuclear weapon. So Aaron Rodgers is just
the latest Republican to run away from from the war and tell Trump that he's
got to wrap this up. Yeah it's really incredible though especially when you look
back at that ad right under buying right this is your grocery shopping car
economy you know that it would be full and plentiful and that that was the
promise I'm gonna bring prices down on day one right that's what Trump said
that's why you said no war no wars and no more we have war and here we are
prices
Why is everybody saying Aaron Rodger?
Am I being too cynical and seeing candidates like El Said Gushing over a Kamala Harris
endorsement or Amdani endorsing Hakim Jeffries?
To your first question, I continue to support Congressman Jeffries and his bid to become
the leader.
The science that they're just the latest incarnations of AOC.
So the problem is that these candidates, including AOC, are kind of useless without movements
to keep them honest.
They will play the political game to their advantage and game the system the best they can.
I mean AOC of course now wants to make a presidential run and in order to to do that
they don't rely on movements, labor unions, this kind of stuff, but they have to rely on the system as it's set up.
Karl Popper in the Open Society and its Enemies said the question is not how do you get good people to rule.
Most people who are attracted to politics or mediocrities at best,
but how do you keep political figures from doing a lot of damage?
And this again, the point Max Weber makes, especially in his book Politics as a Vocation,
that shorn of movements, it's impossible to hold a system in check or create a system that
is responsive to the base. And that's what unfortunately, over the last few decades,
The billionaire class has done it along with corporations quite successfully going all the way back in the 70s, and that's break movements.
So, I don't particularly like AOC, but I don't have any real animus to Mondani.
But without mobilizing a base, he's gonna play to where the centers of power are, and those centers of power are unfortunately located.
Yeah, he's right though.
He's right. He's not wrong.
I'm nowhere near as as as anti-AOC as Chris Hedges is right, but
As it stands
The difference is armum Donnie and Barack Obama is that
Barack Obama killed Obama for America
Organizing for America shuttered it put under the DNC whereas Zoran can't really kill the DSA
but he can limit his reliance on the DSA while securing new power centers.
So we have to, this is way too cynical. I think it's overblown about Zoran and Abdul-Ummal
will discipline them, Dean will guide Fitra. I just can't tell if this motherfucker is
meme-ing or not, it has been literally a decade of this. Okay, Tazkid Noah has been in here
since almost, I think since 2018. And when he's not spamming videos about like, I don't know.
No, I'm not even kidding, dude. This guy constantly, famously, I yelled at him because he doesn't
understand anything about real estate while playing Monopoly. Okay, that's the most famous
pass kid Noah clip. But if I were to look at his even even today, I'm willing to bet
he sent me like eight Islamic theology videos. And he was like, you should really watch this
video, it'll open your eyes.
Look, he admitted.
Can I recommend you Yasir Gadi Vid on history of Shias X?
It would help you for offline watching if you would like it for online.
At least you ponder on it before reacting to chat.
The idea that the Uma will keep Zora Mamdani and Abdul El Sayed in check is so ridiculous.
I don't even know what to say to you, man.
Not only is it hilarious and off base, but it's also, it's also like what conservatives
think is going on.
You know what I mean?
Conservatives think the Umam, Zoramum Downey doesn't serve no man but Allah.
Muslim Professor Jong, Tazqid Noah probably likes Professor Jong.
Yeah, the umma, famously keeping Muslim leaders in check, like Erdogan, or the Emir, or MBS,
you know, MBC, MBS, and the like.
A
higher art of the Democratic Party and the higher part of the Democratic Party is beholden
to its donor class, its corporations and everyone else.
It's apparently an online opinion.
Folks starting to sound like scorned ex-lovers.
No, I think that it's understandable.
No, Chris Hedges is not being extremely online money, says he worries about it.
So, anyway, the possession thing is like, ah, it's whatever.
I mean, he did an interview, people yelled at Margaret Brennan and said that she was a op
for, I guess, not being as antagonistic as they wanted her to be.
What is this? Is Alex Soros related to George Soros? Yes, Alex Soros is now the head of the
Soros Foundation and Open Society and all that stuff. He is the son of George Soros.
As far as like all of these think tanks goes, I mean, they're obviously viciously anti-communist,
they're viciously anti-socialist, but they're probably the most woke. That doesn't matter,
though they're still obviously, like I said, viciously anti-socialism, viciously anti-communist.
What's interesting about it is that since the marriage to Homa Abedin, open society has also become more Clintonite.
In my opinion.
When it used to serve a more like Barack Obama style attitude on foreign policy.
Basically, we need to determine now what exactly we want to reach an understanding of.
If we don't abide by what we have written down as necessary, can we really resolve it
through dialogue?
We wrote it down and some of it, it's clear.
The first thing that needs to happen is that the stress created by the school has to be
overcome.
We need to abide by what we have written down.
The United States needs to show that it does not intend to overthrow our government or our administration.
Put yourself in our position. Imagine someone came and marked it as your supreme leader.
And then not abide by everything you would agree to.
No, lol, Soros, Clinton orbit.
Dog.
The Soros, Soros funds reach everywhere.
Okay, whether it be like the Quincy Institute or shit like that, or at least some of their funding vehicles have also
Have also funded like expressly anti-Zionist causes like openly anti-Zionist causes
However
They've become more Clintonian in there
over all attitude
it's funny because both sides hate them no Democrats don't hate the Soros are you kidding me
Dude, there is not a single thing that Soros Bugs haven't touched.
What would be your reaction? It's not something that can be resolved that simply.
So, the offer that you are making for diplomacy, is it now to begin talks about putting limits
on Iran's nuclear program, but not fully abandoning that program?
Of course we agree.
We had already reached an understanding on this in our previous talks.
They struck it down.
We're not supposed to develop nuclear weapons.
Within the framework of the NPT and the other existing frameworks, all of these issues are
matters that can be agreed upon.
Unfortunately, they are disregarding the rights that international law grants to all countries.
Under international law, including the Non-Proliferation Treaty, your country signed theā¦ inspectors
would be allowed in from the UN.
Will you allow them in now to settle those concerns?
That is absolutely correct.
According to those very international laws, when there are nuclear centers under the inspection
processes of the IAEA, within the NPT framework, no country has the legal right to attack those
nuclear centers and suns.
But American Israel carried out the act of attacking them.
Now, the agency itself, rather than its strong condemnation, showed absolutely no reaction.
Why is it that centers and sites that were completely under their unprecedented surveillance
and inspections regime, perhaps they had the most surveillance on those centers?
We had no deviation from that framework.
Why did they attack it in the first place?
Well, the IAEA said they were not being given full access.
when inspectors weren't being allowed in,
they said they couldn't guarantee the peaceful nature
of your program and say now you have 440 kilograms
of 60% enriched uranium.
So they want to be able to verify
that that won't be made into a weapon.
Will your country allow in weapons inspectors now?
It is absolutely correct.
This occurred after America chose to tear up a JCPOA.
Iran waited for one year in order for the European counterparts to live up to their commitments within the JCPOA. They failed to do so.
This is 100% correct by the way. This is literally what happened.
Donald Trump came into office. Israel hated the JCPOA. They hated the JCPOA because it
was a first step in the direction of like normalizing relations with Iran. They fucking
hated it. And they obviously attacked Obama a lot over facilitating it. And then Trump
won. And when Trump won, they made Trump rip it apart. And then the Iranians for an entire
year after Trump ripped the JCPO of JCPOA apart, still continued following it.
And no, this was at the time presented as like shitting on Obama's legacy.
But that was a way to get the fools on board. The real reason is because he's Israel's puppy.
100%. He's always been and always will be Israel's puppy.
That's also why you can tell people like Nick Fuentes are just straightforward grifters.
While Nick talks a big game about Israel nowadays, and I think we all know why because he thinks he can, you know, redirect that attention back to Jews.
Donald Trump did this, and the Abraham Accords, and Nick Fuentes literally did January 6 for that guy.
Mr. Zog, Mr. Zionist Occupied Government, has been in support of and has gotten trouble
with the law over the most pro-Israel president of all time.
This is also why these institutions don't treat Niquentus as a real threat to Israeli
interest but they treat me as a real threat to Israeli interest because I don't give a
fuck about trying to use Israel's unpopularity to redirect the attention back to like American Jews.
So,
I am a real threat to Israel's interest in the United States and continuing to,
to, um, in continuing to, to generate absolute fealty from American politicians.
That's it.
That's the reason why Netanyahu mentioned my name.
Yeah, sure, I mean even Tucker Carlson, he said some weird ass shit to MPR, he said he
looked at me and said, I had flown back from Tel Aviv after seeing the ambassador and two
Two days later, I was in the Oval with Trump.
He said, this war is not about Iran's nuclear program,
which you told me in the world that you eliminated.
This war is being pushed by Israel with three aims.
One, its own regional agenda.
We take Iran off the map.
Two, diminishing the power of the GCC.
And three, getting the US out of the Middle East
because we can strain their ambitions.
I said this to Trump.
Do his face in the Oval Office days before the war began.
And he looked at me and said, yes, you're right.
But in the end, we all die anyway.
That's exactly what he said. In the end, we all die anymore.
And I said to him, shocked, but what about our kids and our grandkids and our country?
He goes, ahhh. And it was God watch as I said that.
Why don't what he said go tell you exactly what he said and I haven't said this, but I'm just going to tell you.
He looked at me and said, I had flown back from Tel Aviv.
I do believe that though.
I do believe that part of the talker story
Because that is it's hard to believe that that we all die in the end. No Trump says shit like that all the time
Yeah
We're here and we live our 67 year 80 years and we're gone he reflected a playboy in a 1990 interview you win you win
And in the end it doesn't mean a hell lot
Subsequent wing does not seem to have shaken this conviction. Nothing matters to you informed Larry King in 2004
You do shows you do this you do that and then you have earthquakes in India where 400,000 people get killed. Honestly, it doesn't matter
Every now and then he gets like weirdly nihilistic
like, and we'll just say like, oh, we'll all turn to dust.
Like he get he remember when he was like, I wish I could just drive away, never to return.
I
Know or remember when he said I'm not going to heaven
They got to go bro, they got to go the other thing is
is this is how you move from a high trust society
to a low trust society.
And we're becoming a low trust society now
when we were a high trust society,
is that everybody now looks at the government like,
oh, there are a bunch of crooks and criminals
and they're doing criminal shit.
And when you read a story like this,
it really is eye-opening that you can't even make
the argument of like, oh, that's just the status quo
and how business works.
It's like, no, they're being corrupt.
They know they're being corrupt.
They know that this is illegal.
They know that this is unacceptable.
they know that this is a breach of public trust and they do it anyway
they do it over and over over we need to clean house like nobody's business
okay we all these corrupt assholes not only to be kicked out of office we need
them locked up
and we need donald j trump to be held accountable is what he's done is he's
ushered in the it is the golden age it's the golden age of corruption in the
united states of america
donald j trump has made it so
there there's no reason to even pretend anymore
that you're a good person trying to do good things
they actually give a shit
about the public and the well-being of your constituents he has now made it
like you look like a sucker if you actually give a shit about your
i think there's something so cool
and also so
strange about the fact that kyle kalinsky died his hair
platinum one uh... platinum blonde one time and never look back
and at the time when he first did it i couldn't believe it right i was like
what the fuck
is this
and now
if i were to see him without
the platinum bra a blonde hair i'd be like this is strange
let a white boy cook you mother fucker is true you're right
you're right
your fellow american
uh... now it's like
you learn to see gave him time to die it up do you should i die my hair
platinum blonde
i'm just turning into
a shitty
file colisea can never hold a candle to his might of course
device signal all they do is by signal
trump has done more
stock trades
then literally
the entire house and senate combined
that's insane
but that's what he did
and so
where at the point now where it
they've lost their legitimacy in the same way the supreme court is no longer
looked at as a legitimate institution
it's looked at as i looked at is like a clown court
and you know that
it they're really risking they're really running the risk of like
just being blown off completely now
um... i'd
i look at congress and i see the same thing
i see like
knows it take you seriously and
people if you don't clean this shit up people will start taking matters into
their own hands and that's not a good thing i don't want to live in a country
where there's like vigilante justice
but when you do show i didn't get away with it
and you effectively leave people no choice
it's like i don't tell you
clean up your fucking house
and and lock these workers up lock all of them up
If Dems flip Senate House and Angie Nixon wins, you bleach the hair and the beard.
I mean, if Angie and if Angie Nixon wins.
Yes, I saw the my madaglacious joke.
I even liked it.
Oh, I guess I didn't.
But yeah, he said, you had one was crazy.
President Ahmed I'll show I don't believe that it's an appropriate time to discuss things that happened 25 years ago
It was a I was a different. I was at a different age and the conditions in the region were different
If Angie Nixon
And I'll do also had both win I will dye my fucking hair platinum blonde
not like this though this is crazy I would buzz it probably I would buzz it and then

believe anything you say you said it moved to New York City of Zoran once shaking my
my head? Okay, well, oh god, fuck no, I don't need to hear lip-takes in AI memes from another
white dude, man, what?
I love the way that the Jalani, also known as now Ahmed al-Shara talks about being the fucking leader of al-Qaeda in Syria as like just, you know, something that happened in his in his youthful in his youthful days.
days. Yeah, this is what I would look like.
Just a youth phase, you know.
John Federman on whether he'd be a 51st Democrat. If Democrats want to send a majority,
see what I do. Let's revisit after the midterms and see what happens if I happen to be 51. I don't know.
Then he was also asked. We have a few questions for you from the audience. One is from
Kahindi from Dallas and they ask, why not become an independent?
Because I'm a lifelong Republican. Democrat. That's a moment right there.
We have a few questions for you from the audience. One is from Kahindi.
What can I say, man?
He has to have his hand held all the time from Dallas.
Like what a ridiculous situation.
That's a moment right there.
We have a few.
Yeah, we need 52 is not even a joke.
I said it already.
We need Angie Ann and Obdual, and Telefreco, and Troiodathon.
We need them all.
No, fuck that dude as is.
What do you mean?
Oh, no, I didn't mean for my frosted tips.
Do you believe the poll that has caused that at Troy Jackson?
I mean, most polls have showed Collins behind Troy.
Most polls have shown that Troy O'Thon is cooking.
The New York Times Vienna poll shows Troy three points behind Collins and what's interesting
about that is, um, I mean, that's in the margin of error, but also that poll showed me something
crazy.
You want to see?
I liked it on Twitter.
One of you guys posted this, you said, drop us on in there like, uh, in a parachute right
now.
That's never going to happen.
Obviously his his entire staff is organized by like DNC consultants. They're gonna obviously stay the fuck away for me
but
Where the fuck are the likes where the likes go
Where the likes go, I don't even know where my likes are now. Oh
It's on bookmarks, okay
Wait, I can't even find it. Sometimes I like shit and it just goes away. I don't even know
where it is. I think it was this guy though. Is this dirtbag left account? Did he delete
it? Oh no, I guess he didn't like it. Here it is. Air drop of Sompiger into main. What
are we doing? Look at this insider advantage poll. Oh, this is at Sienna. This is insider
advantage poll showing Troy Jackson a 46% Susan Collins a 45% look at this insider advantage poll
18 to 39 Susan Collins has 44.8% support Troy Jackson has 41.7
There has never been a single race that I've been involved with where anything close to
this took place not even like 5050 right
Abdul's got 80% dude Abdul has 80% support in this demographic 80
So, this is probably a shitty poll, I suspect.
Insider advantage is so Republican-leading, they had NGF only plus 9 with black voters,
the crosstabs are so ass in favor of Napoleon's choice fine.
I mean, how do you even weight it like this?
I know I don't even believe that it's like this anyway.
Yeah, there's definitely there's definitely some interesting
coming out of Maine. We haven't touched it. You know, I want Tritathon to thrive.
But anyway, there's also this story that I want to talk about.
A wow forever player made a mod that hides all chat from Asmogol's Olympus guilds. It
auto declines their deal invites duals and trades and they never find out they've been
muted.
Asmongold replied with the only people down voting this add on are fat and or are worded
they will also become part of Olympus sooner or later there are two groups of people on
the server people who aren't in Olympus people who aren't in Olympus yet.
Yeah, while we're out here organizing in the real world trying to get people elected, Asmongold
is busy destroying World of Warcraft on the internet.
Um, I hope the horde continuously makes playing forever so unbearable for asman and his kkk clan
They abandoned it completely kind of surprising to me like I didn't lose any attack. Oh damn
Damn, bro. We have to apply that out
I don't know if you guys can kill all of them
Uh-oh
I've got to just win that way too hard.
That's boxed out, he's dead.
Keep him on WoW servers and ahead of politics.
I mean, I'm not going to lie.
I do prefer him fucking up WoW instead of fucking up American politics.
No disrespect to all the Blizzard heads, no disrespect to all the World of Warcraft heads.
You know, before all you call for a ban of asthma and imagine how much Chiller January
6 would have been if the people in his guild were busy raiding the Horde capital instead
of the American one.
Yeah, I mean this guy has the right idea, he has the same idea as myself.
Like, this is like a bad kid, you know, sometimes you gotta slap an iPad on their face.
You know what I mean?
I feel like these guys are such a malignant force on everything that they touch or just
contain them in this cyberspace.
Soda is playing specifically on the opposite faction so we can do these kinds of PFP ganks
against Olympus. Now I'm re-rolling Horde for a couple of reasons. First, it was an Olympus
player that I grouped up with. They were cringe. They were retarded. And they wanted
this, they're just annoying. And that was whatever. I was like, that's what we expected.
And then my world chat got completely fucked. And then I started talking to the safe space,
basically all my friends who were queuing up. They started linking screenshots of just
annoying olympus plague players genuinely and
the horde racials are just better for a dual tourney now i'm re-rolling horde
for a couple of reasons
even while chud's hate asman wait really why
i thought that they would all love him
they've been screeching because a lot of them got banned from beta for the most
anti-Semitic and racist names while crying about a character named Charlie
Mcnick Kirk that also got forced to re-roll names.
Does he fucking sucks at the game?
Does he?
Isn't this what he did his whole life?
I don't understand.
like how can you suck at world of warcraft if that's like if that's your whole lives work
wow chuds hate him because they hate streamers and asma isn't even good enough at the game to
also be a nazi most wow tryhards hate asma because he's dog shit of the game and just exploits fans
for gains. What the fuck. This version of the game is all one server instead of a dozen
or so before we could leave them in a quarantine but now is everyone else's problem.
He is famously carried to everything. I didn't know this
What is this an interview asked for Jackson about you few weeks ago if you can before you're right
Yeah, I have no idea. I'm now. I don't have any contact with Troy Jackson
What the hell is this what a day?
They're elected officials and she's not willing to do that.
But you know, in the end, you know, we're going to win because we're talking about how
we can actually make people's lives better as opposed to, I mean, I'm not criticizing
Susan Collins and her family and stuff.
And there's a lot of there that I could criticize on.
But that's not my job as elected official.
My job.
Oh, he's the Elon Musk of World of Warcraft.
Oh, that makes a lot of sense.
Love is to fight for everyday mayors and to get a government that they deserve.
And that's what I'm gonna continue to do.
I wanted to ask one last question,
because it is about that kind of national media environment
that's feeding on everything.
I know that there's been a lot of talk
about a leftist streamer, Passan Piker.
Have you ever spoken with him?
No, I honestly have never.
I actually don't know a lot about him either.
Yeah, I kind of guessed.
Is that kind of drama,
the kind of national media speculation?
Is that just stupid?
Well, I mean, again, not knowing him or anything like that.
And I think it is.
I mean, you know, for me, this race is about Maine.
I mean, you know, I mean, I have ideas about what's going on across the country and stuff like that.
But I mean, I'm focused on this state because that's where I've been working my entire life over the last 20 years in the main legislature.
And I believe him when he says he has no idea who the fuck I am, by the way, like not even a question.
Not even a question, dude.
And for this race, trying to make Maynard's lives better.
Oh, yeah.
Speaking of Troodathon, Beast Mode, my goat.
Okay.
ļæ½Main Senateļæ½ Troy Jackson argues with Trump supporter on Facebook, ļæ½Jackson, when
Trump fucks you, donļæ½t cry, Andy, you think he cares about your fat ass.ļæ½
Okay, so Troy Jackson on Facebook was talking to Trump supporter, and the guy goes, ļæ½Okay,
Trump is cleaning house.
Troy responded with ļæ½When Trump fucks you, donļæ½t cry.ļæ½
supporter responds with his campaign promise. Troy responds with, Andy, you think he cares about
your fat ass? And then instantly, the Trump supporter responds with, my fat ass? Really,
lol. That'd be good to show people since you're running for governor.
He also posted Trump humpers are the modern day stormtroopers.
I wish Troy would let his nuts hang harder because it's really good like he's awesome
when he does stuff like this.
It's so funny.
anyway it's all I got for today folks nice seven hour love you all live to
fight another day. And that's it. That's all I got, baby. That font is the most
egregious part of that combo. Yeah, I think that's the font that like people
with dyslexia use, right? Comic Sans or whatever. That's what it is, right? It's
for dyslexia, right? To people with like, uh, disabilities or some. You didn't continue
shitting on Asimov. I don't give a shit about Asimov. Anyway, I haven't been talking about
Asimov as much because he hasn't been dealing with politics as much as he's fucking up.
Wow. Love you guys. I will see you tomorrow. All right. Peace.
