00:02:56.000But our big show tonight, we're going to be covering a lot of recent developments in geopolitics and foreign affairs.
00:03:05.000I've wanted to do a show like this for a long time, but things just keep coming up.
00:03:10.000The Trump indictment, the terror attack in Nashville,
00:03:15.000Civil War in Israel, a lot of stuff going on lately so we just really haven't had one good day to spend the whole show on this but our featured story tonight we'll be talking about a number of different developments and they're all pertaining to the changing global landscape in the last really just in the last two or three weeks we've seen a lot of major developments among them concern Saudi Arabia and China and it's not the first time that we've talked about this
00:03:45.000And what I'm referring to broadly is that Saudi Arabia is moving further and further away from the United States and closer towards Russia and China.
00:03:58.000And so the story broadly is about how the Russian-Chinese relationship is laying the foundation for a multipolar world.
00:04:08.000A world where there isn't just one superpower, which is so much more powerful than the other countries that they can't even be spoken of in the same sentence as that power, which we would call that a unipolar world order.
00:04:24.000But it's going to be a world order where there are multiple poles exerting power on the world and countries like Saudi Arabia or Turkey or Brazil or others will be between multiple poles and sometimes drifting towards one and sometimes towards the other.
00:04:43.000But it's a more democratic world that's not led totally by one country, the United States.
00:04:53.000The big idea is that, as a result of this war in Ukraine, we have pushed Russia into the arms of China, they have now forged an unbreakable bond, and it is through that partnership that they will dominate the Eurasian landmass in this century, and that's going to change how the entire global political dynamic works, especially with these regional players like, for example, Saudi Arabia.
00:05:20.000We're also going to be talking specifically about how that is affecting the relationship with Saudi Arabia, being a very good case study in this.
00:05:29.000Saudi Arabia is one of our most important allies, America's most important ally in the Middle East.
00:05:36.000And just in the last couple of weeks they have signaled a major shake-up that they're apparently breaking entirely with the United States and now moving towards Russia and China.
00:05:47.000And there are two or three major developments that signal this.
00:05:51.000The first was a deal that China brokered to normalize relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia, which apparently their relationship is now as good as it's been since 1979.
00:06:06.000Which is when the Islamic Revolution happened in Iran.
00:06:10.000They just announced it a couple weeks ago.
00:06:14.000The other big development this week is that Saudi Arabia will be becoming a dialogue partner in the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, which is a Chinese-led group of countries in Eurasia, and it includes China, countries in Central Asia, includes Russia, Iran, others.
00:06:35.000And so Saudi Arabia joining that signals that they're cozying up to China.
00:06:40.000But all of this is really solidifying a trend which has been going on now for over a decade and specifically what's been happening with Saudi Arabia for the last year.
00:06:51.000We covered this a lot last summer when we were asking OPEC and Joe Biden was specifically calling on Saudi Arabia to produce more oil to offset
00:07:03.000The effects of the war in Ukraine, which was sending fuel prices in America very high, and Saudi Arabia refused to do that.
00:07:11.000And not only that, but they actually cut production.
00:07:14.000That was seen as a flagrant move against not just the United States, but specifically against the Biden administration.
00:07:23.000And now, a year later, we see it's full-blown, you could call it a diplomatic rift.
00:07:29.000And this signals some very big shake-ups to come.
00:08:30.000Congress, which will give the Biden administration the power to ban TikTok.
00:08:35.000Problem is, both of them do a lot more than that, as is always the case.
00:08:41.000They're passing these bills, they say, so that Joe Biden will be empowered by the legislature to move against TikTok, which is a private business.
00:09:10.000And both of them have very far-reaching provisions about the executive branch's control over software and over American companies that do business with China.
00:09:21.000For example, some provisions in one of the bills would make it illegal to use a VPN.
00:09:27.000If you use a VPN, which is Virtual Private Network, it conceals your IP address.
00:09:32.000That would be a highly illegal act if one of these bills was passed.
00:10:17.000But before we get into all that, I want to remind you to smash the follow button here on Cozy to get a push notification whenever I go live.
00:10:24.000Follow me on Gab Telegram, true social, links are down below.
00:10:28.000We're also live on Rumble every night, so check us out on Rumble.
00:10:32.000And all the replays of my show are available on Rumble, so if you want to watch an episode from last week or two weeks ago, it's all there.
00:10:42.000We also have the remastered Fuentes Rally there, too, if you missed it.
00:11:38.000All of that was in the works before 2021, then the Capitol happened.
00:11:42.000And then I got banned from everything, and I lost all my money, and I lost my income.
00:11:47.000So it took a long time to recover from that.
00:11:50.000And then, right when we were about to start to make moves, I get drafted to go work in LA with Ye, and you're not gonna say no to that.
00:12:03.000And I'm still sort of embroiled in that
00:12:07.000But of course in Chicago, so I don't really know what the future holds for this year But I'd like to I'd like to move in that direction just I got so many people Trying to get my attention these days.
00:13:03.000It's like, hey, pardon me, when's the last time... And don't get me wrong, people send in superchats, but it's always the people that don't send the superchats that are complaining.
00:13:53.000I'm more productive than ever, making phone calls, writing memos, doing projects, reading, coming up with insights all the time, making everyone laugh.
00:14:07.000And this is your brain on this Ray Peet diet, the ice cream diet.
00:14:13.000Anyway, so it's been busy, busy, busy, but still got time for you niggas.
00:14:18.000Still got time for the niggas, for the boys, for the groips.
00:15:55.000And that's for people that were in the Senate chamber, that's for people that beat up cops, that's for people that were charged with a felony, conspiracy, or obstruction of an official proceeding of Congress.
00:16:12.000But people see the sentence and it's bad enough that he's in jail for 60 days and he was actually in solitary confinement for 16 days because of some vindictive prison guard.
00:16:25.000But what people didn't see over the last two years is the torture that we were all put through, which is the uncertainty, this ordeal of being subject to government persecution as a result of Stop the Steal.
00:17:03.000Paying for lawyers, the financial pressure that it causes, the pressure on the family, and him in particular, getting subpoenaed, getting his parents' phone records subpoenaed, having to bring on a lawyer, negotiating with the feds, going through these different trials.
00:17:20.000It's a brutal, excruciating thing and so, the 60 days is almost just the, that's like the icing on the cake.
00:17:29.000A lot of you watched January 6 unfold on TV two years ago.
00:17:35.000But the people that were there, and specifically the people that went to jail, have gone through this ordeal and have had to think about it and have been under pressure and been stressed about it every single day since for two years.
00:17:49.000It's almost like, in a sense, being in jail for two years.
00:21:05.000So we're glad he's home and I'm gonna try my best to get out there and see him as soon as I can and just check in on him and see how he's doing.
00:21:14.000I don't think he's able to stream so we can't make content but I'm gonna check in on him and see what's up.
00:21:20.000But at the same time that that's going on it's sort of a weird timetable.
00:21:25.000So today Baked Alaska is let out of jail.
00:21:28.000It's the same day that Ricky Vaughn was convicted
00:21:32.000Which is a huge deal and he now faces up to 10 years in jail for a meme!
00:21:39.000He posted a meme telling black people they could vote by text.
00:21:45.000He's being prosecuted now because that apparently deprived people of their rights because they tried to do that.
00:21:53.000He took away their voting rights by making a joke on the internet.
00:22:45.000Because we're now getting to the point where they are just killing people and throwing people in cages.
00:22:50.000If you question the legitimacy of the election, if you go against the regime, if you are too big, too honest, too successful, they just try and throw you in jail.
00:23:01.000Make an example out of you, or throw you in jail for your own sake.
00:23:07.000And that is clearly what is happening in every single case.
00:23:10.000These are all people that nobody can even really articulate what they did wrong.
00:23:14.000And in all these cases, it's very creative prosecutions.
00:23:34.000It's weaponization of the judiciary, weaponization of the law.
00:23:38.000And they're making an example out of him.
00:23:40.000They want to deprive him of his business and take billions of dollars from him that he doesn't even have so that we can't talk.
00:23:49.000And they're building up, if they can't get it through the Supreme Court, they're building up a legal precedent and a political precedent that you don't have free speech.
00:23:59.000They don't have to pass a bill in Congress that says you aren't free.
00:24:05.000And they don't have to thereby get something like that past the Supreme Court, because they are creating a political and a judicial precedent by charging people in these cases.
00:24:17.000Where if you're Alex Jones, and you say the Sandy Hook parents are crisis actors, that is now a billion dollar defamation suit.
00:24:29.000Those are considered private individuals, so we can't talk about mass killings, we can't talk about civilians involved in political issues, lest we be
00:24:39.000Charged and given a billion dollars in punitive damages?
00:25:10.000So now, and by the way Charlottesville is somewhat a precedent there too, because of course we were deprived of our First Amendment right to assemble there.
00:25:21.000So then you get Charlottesville and the Capitol on top of that.
00:25:24.000Then you get Donald Trump who runs for president, wins, gets overthrown, they can't find anything on him,
00:25:32.000So then they just dig through his business records and they find some transaction, and they find some convoluted way to make it about campaign finance, and they charge him.
00:25:42.000Tate was prosecuted in Romania, so that's slightly different, but you could say in theory that it's all really the same thing.
00:25:50.000But strictly speaking for the American process, we are now at a point where in the last five years the landscape has radically changed.
00:25:57.000These things were unheard of years ago.
00:26:00.000And now not only do you have an incredible censorship regime, and an incredible debanking and financial sanction regime, but now you have a legal regime.
00:26:10.000And so we're at a point now where political dissent has thoroughly
00:27:58.000But they are coming up with all these creative investigations to break apart his organized political operation which stands against the regime.
00:28:11.000And so, one way to look at it is this intensification over the years in method, in tactics of how the regime is holding back a burgeoning resistance
00:28:27.000And like I said, you could really trace it back to Andrew Anglin getting banned from Twitter eight years ago.
00:28:33.000You could probably go back further, but I believe that's really when it starts.
00:28:38.000Is they go after Andrew Anglin, they ban him on Twitter.
00:28:41.000That's your first Twitter ban, that's the first guy that falls.
00:28:46.000And it proceeds from there with all these kinds of crises and events, and we've... I mean, I've witnessed it play out over the course of my adult life.
00:28:55.000First, it's people getting banned on Twitter.
00:29:04.000People try lawsuits and it doesn't work.
00:29:06.000Then we see things like the Christchurch massacre and Charlottesville.
00:29:11.000And so there goes your freedom of assembly in Charlottesville.
00:29:13.000And after Christchurch, on Facebook, they then implement these rules against white separatism and white nationalism and talk of white genocide.
00:29:23.000And it goes on and then you get these things in 2020 where between the George Floyd riots and the COVID epidemic, then they start controlling the narrative.
00:29:32.000They undertake algorithmic and other forms of censorship so that they can explicitly control the political narrative surrounding important issues.
00:29:43.000And then it's the election fraud and it's everything that comes with that.
00:29:46.000Then you get the DOJ going after the rioters.
00:30:14.000And you create a timeline where this has been intensified over the years, and what you see is that there is a revolution going on, and the regime has just escalated its tactics with every passing day, trying to disintegrate, disorganize all of that, and suppress it.
00:30:35.000And so today is one of these days where it's like, people going in, people going out.
00:30:54.000None of these people were charged with crimes before they became right-wing dissidents, but then, all of a sudden, now there's interest in Tate.
00:31:02.000Now there's interest in Trump's payment from before 2016.
00:31:19.000So... Anyway, so it's an interesting day.
00:31:23.000Well, we gotta take our wins where we can get them.
00:31:26.000It's a good day that Baked Alaska and the Tate Brothers are out, but this is the unfortunate reality.
00:31:32.000What started with a fun, silly meme war, and, oh, we're gonna get banned and we'll respawn, has now turned into people are being thrown in jail.
00:31:45.000And I'll also point out that this is also the subject of infiltration and espionage as well.
00:33:07.000And then you find out he's not only not ever attracted any attention from the ADL, but actually one of his followers shot a bunch of people and nobody talks about this.
00:33:18.000And still, to this day, if that were me, could you imagine?
00:33:22.000Could you imagine if one of my followers did a mass shooting?
00:33:45.000I put it on my telegram today, but you know, we've been really going in on BAP and we've been talking about the civil war in Israel, and here's the gist.
00:34:45.000And, of course, there have been major efforts undertaken over the past year to discredit me, and to hurt my credibility, and to insinuate that I'm a bad actor.
00:34:57.000Which, by the way, there's a word for that.
00:35:22.000And so much of this is not an accident, so much of this is not a coincidence, it's literally coordinated.
00:35:28.000And one of the most prominent people that coordinated these things is Kostan Alomar, you are a Bronze Age pervert.
00:35:34.000He was one of the people amplifying the most salacious rumors about me in the last year.
00:35:39.000And we take a look at a guy like that, who's an anonymous right-wing personality who should be supporting me if he purports to be some sort of pro-white Nazi,
00:35:50.000And yet, he's amplifying all these smears against me.
00:35:58.000We found out he's a pedophile, homosexual.
00:36:00.000We find out that he grew up in Newton, Massachusetts, which is the most Jewish town in America.
00:36:05.000His brother works for the Eurasia Group.
00:36:07.000His dad, all his Facebook friends live in Israel, and he's a supporter of the IDF.
00:36:13.000We found out that Costan Alamaryou has written articles throughout his academic life about how
00:36:18.000The Zionist state is amazing and how Palestinian identity isn't real.
00:36:23.000In other words, we find out this guy is a Ben Shapiro wearing a Hitler mask.
00:36:28.000He's Ben Shapiro, full-on yarmulke, cuboid face, he's got a cube wrapped around his fucking forehead, but he's just wearing a Hitler mask, wearing a Hitler mustache.
00:36:40.000And this is the kind of thing I'm talking about.
00:36:41.000We are at the precipice of a mass... Oh!
00:36:48.000I think I'm getting swatted right now.
00:38:51.000I stick my head out the door and there's uh I don't know some some sort of scene.
00:38:57.000I'm thinking here I'm thinking it's like it's 1 30 a.m it's a Friday night I'm like what could you know I hear police but it's uh thankfully he's got nothing something to do with the neighbor apparently but anyway anyway false alarm but I wanted to dive back into where where was I I was talking about Koston Alamaru and I forget exactly where I
00:39:20.000We're on the precipice of a mass consciousness awakening event.
00:39:38.000Where people are becoming aware about the Jewish issue.
00:39:49.000You saw how I was catapulted into the national spotlight last year.
00:39:54.000And so the point is, there are very powerful, interested parties that do not want to see a guy like me spread my message.
00:40:03.000There are very powerful, interested parties that want to ensure that the young people, the right-wing movement, stays on the controlled right, foreign subverted,
00:40:39.000All these groups like Claremont are in bed with him as well as like the entirety of the GOP We talked about some tweets and some other things on Tuesday and Wednesday and today I want to I want to share with you this tweet from that network
00:40:55.000Because to me, this kind of stuff, if this doesn't prove that the right wing is totally subverted, and by right wing I mean the dissident right, is totally subverted, there's an active Jewish spy ring going on here, to me this is almost irrefutable, undeniable.
00:41:39.000He writes, it's low IQ and imprecise to blame abstractions such as capitalism, the globalists, or even the Jews for historical events and today's problems.
00:41:51.000Abstractions don't make decisions or exercise power.
00:44:03.000Perhaps the dumbest thing one can do is assign people a tribal affiliation, often on flimsy evidence at best, and infer single-issue abstract motivations towards them.
00:44:15.000Real people juggle a balance of competing interests and incentives.
00:45:08.000Curtis Yarvin, who is the court philosopher, also Jewish, of Peter Thiel, the billionaire, who is the single biggest donor in the 22 cycle, $30 million, elected a senator, nominated others,
00:45:22.000Curtis Yarvin, who's the court philosopher of Teal, convinced Claremont Institute, which is funded by Paul Singer, a Jewish-Israeli spy and a billionaire who funds Claremont, convinced Claremont Institute to push Bronze Age Pervert's book in their Claremont review of books.
00:46:10.000You know, a couple weeks ago we did a story about a major organ in the Jewish lobby, in the Israel lobby, that said that we need to give all of our best military tech to Israel?
00:47:43.000It's because you have these guys that'll come into whichever scene it is, whether it's the conservative scene and you're Ben Shapiro and Prager,
00:47:52.000Or it's this scene, and it's Bronze Age pervert, and somebody else.
00:47:58.000They come into the scene pushing 80% their issue, or our issues, the things we like to hear, and the 20% is something that is diametrically opposed to our foundational views.
00:48:09.000The foundational view of this side is nationalism.
00:48:14.000That's like the foundational idea is America first.
00:48:18.000And America First, at its core, is about corruption.
00:48:23.000It's about the fact that our government is corrupt.
00:48:26.000It has been corrupted by foreign spies, foreign money, foreign businesses, foreign governments, foreign lobbyists.
00:48:36.000Our country is failing because we have lost our... well, there's a lot of reasons we've lost our soul as a civilization.
00:48:45.000But in a more logistical way, in a more practical way, we've lost our way because the government is being raped by foreigners.
00:48:54.000Here you have a literal foreigner coming in and promulgating this lie that the number one, the number one perpetrator of this rape against our country, which is Israel, is somehow innocuous, or better yet, our closest ally.
00:49:38.000And he doesn't even go out there and say that, so the jig is up and they're obviously panicking.
00:49:43.000But it's amazing how we persisted with this, we pushed this, we pushed this, and now they're just going mask off and they're saying, you know what, Netanyahu's not that bad, Israel's our closest ally, it doesn't matter.
00:52:11.000And anyway, so if that's what we see, that's just the tip of the iceberg.
00:52:17.000And there's so much more that goes on behind the scenes that explains why you still have Charlie Kirk going out there in December saying that we need to stop it, the surging anti-Semitism.
00:52:30.000That's why Tucker Carlson cancels the Ye documentary.
00:52:33.000That's why, that's why these things happen.
00:52:36.000And it's like I said earlier this week, can we put America first without confronting this?
00:54:10.000I don't need to hear anything else from a multi-racial populist.
00:54:16.000I don't need to hear anything else from a neo-reactionary.
00:54:18.000I don't need to hear anything else from some bodybuilding, whatever the... We don't need to hear anything more from people that reject Jesus and work for Israel.
00:54:48.000We put all the evidence out, and then they go out and say, hey, come on, okay, maybe we are Jewish, but what are you going to just protect us for that?
00:55:30.000But it's been just such a hectic period that we haven't gotten a chance to do it.
00:55:35.000But our big featured story tonight is about a series of events that are taking place in Asia, which are changing global political balance of power.
00:55:48.000And specifically this has to do with the relationship between Russia and China.
00:55:53.000A couple of weeks ago, Xi Jinping made an historic trip to Moscow
00:57:19.000So that's what sets the stage as Xi Jinping making the trip to Moscow, and specifically saying that they will now forge an unbreakable bond.
00:57:31.000You've now got the number one nuclear arsenal in the world, the second biggest conventional military in the world, manufacturer of the most sophisticated hypersonic missile in the world, now teaming up with the world's number one economy, world's number one population.
00:57:49.000Two countries also that are autocratic, completely rejecting liberal democracy, completely rejecting that model.
00:57:58.000It's the biggest challenge, it's the biggest confrontation against the United States in 30 years, in a generation since the Cold War.
00:58:06.000It's a reshaping of the global landscape.
00:58:09.000And so tonight, specifically, I want to talk about a few major developments pertaining to Saudi Arabia.
00:58:15.000So in the last few weeks, Saudi Arabia has drifted further and further towards China.
00:58:20.000And as I said at the top of the show, this is part of a much longer trend.
00:58:24.000Which really starts with... Well, if you really want to go back, this has a lot to do with China becoming the number one economy.
00:58:33.000Saudi Arabia is one of the world's largest producers of oil.
00:58:37.000China is now the world's largest consumer of oil.
00:58:42.000So it has a lot to do with trade and it has a lot to do with the economics.
00:58:49.000But specifically, you can trace back the rift in American-Saudi relations to the killing of the journalist Jamal Khashoggi and how that caused all these problems and we were going to break apart with Saudi Arabia.
00:59:19.000It really goes back to that but we talked about this a lot more on the show a year ago and I mentioned this at the beginning of the show when last year the war in Ukraine was causing oil prices to skyrocket and this is very bad for the Biden administration and fuel prices are going up and it's contributing to inflation in America and Joe Biden asked Saudi Arabia to
00:59:43.000Increased oil production to offset that effect and Saudi Arabia and OPEC refused.
00:59:50.000And this was a total middle finger to America.
00:59:54.000Which, Saudi Arabia and America, this is supposed to be one of the most important alliances in the world.
00:59:59.000Going back to 1945, going back to FDR's meeting with the King of Saudi Arabia.
01:00:31.000And it seems that almost in a matter of two weeks, Saudi Arabia is breaking away from America, and now they're joining up with China and Russia, or at the minimum, becoming a free agent.
01:00:42.000And there are a couple of things in particular, and here's an article from Russia Today.
01:00:48.000It says, quote, Saudi Arabia's cabinet approved a decision to join a China-led security bloc, strengthening Riyadh's eastern ties and a further step away from American interests.
01:00:59.000The state-owned Saudi Press Agency said that in a session of the Saudi Cabinet on Tuesday, King Salman approved a memorandum awarding Riyadh the status of Dialogue Partner in the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, which is a political, security, and trade alliance which includes China, Russia, India, Pakistan, and four other Central Asian nations as full members.
01:01:24.000The organization further tallies four observer states, including Iran, and nine dialogue partners, which now counts Turkey, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia.
01:01:34.000It is headquartered in Beijing and served by China's Jiang Ming as Secretary General.
01:01:40.000Saudi Arabia's decision to join the SCO while falling short of full membership takes Riyadh's interest further east at a time when Beijing is testing out its way in the Middle East and a potential hit to U.S.
01:01:53.000In early March, China brokered a deal for long-time Mideast rival Saudi Arabia and Iran to resume diplomatic relations and reopen embassies in each other's countries.
01:02:04.000Deeper in Europe, Beijing, just as ambitiously, if so far less successfully, submitted a 12-point plan to achieve peace between Russia and Ukraine.
01:02:15.000So this is China making a number of moves at a time when America's incredibly vulnerable for a lot of reasons, specifically the banking crisis that's going on, the high inflation, imminent defeat in Ukraine,
01:02:30.000So China is now intervening in the Middle East, and they brokered a deal between Saudi Arabia and Iran.
01:02:38.000Because, of course, Saudi Arabia and Iran have been in a cold war since 1979, when the Islamic Revolution happened in Iran.
01:02:46.000And it's only been getting worse, especially in the last 10 years.
01:02:50.000If you look at the situation in Yemen, where there's a proxy war going on, Syria was effectively a proxy war, there was a major rout over Qatar,
01:02:59.000Because of their support for Iran, the Middle East has been dominated for the last 10 years by a proxy war between these two countries and America playing up the religious differences and political differences between them.
01:03:13.000And it seems like in a matter of one week, all of that is now over.
01:03:17.000They reopened their embassies, normalizing ties in a way that they simply have never done in 40 years since the existence of the modern Iranian regime.
01:03:31.000So you've got Saudi Arabia breaking away from the United States, moving into China's orbit in the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and not only that, but at the same time that this is going on, China goes into the Middle East and it seems like overnight solves a blood feud which has defined the geopolitics of the Middle East for 40 years.
01:03:57.000This is by far and away bigger, you could say, than the war in Ukraine.
01:04:03.000This is a bigger signal than the war in Ukraine.
01:04:05.000Last year we talked about how this has a lot to do with America's hegemony in the world, and this is a test for Russia, and Russia being able to survive means that, and I said last year, this is the beginning of the end of the unipolar world order.
01:04:21.000Things like this look like the end of the beginning.
01:04:25.000This looks like the beginning of the multipolar world.
01:04:27.000This is not the beginning of the end of the unipolar world order.
01:04:30.000This is the beginning of the beginning of a multipolar world order.
01:04:34.000These are the consequences year out of what started in Ukraine last year, last February.
01:04:42.000Because it's not any longer China threatening to become a world player.
01:04:48.000China is now projecting strength in the Middle East.
01:04:52.000And it's not just Saudi Arabia, it's others too.
01:04:54.000It's other countries like Turkey, it's Iran.
01:04:57.000You look around the world and here's a figure for you.
01:05:00.00060-70% of the world's population are living in countries that did not put sanctions on Russia.
01:05:10.000So this is the entirety of the world's population that is now no longer on the side of the United States.
01:05:18.000If you can count in the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, China, Russia, India, Pakistan, Iran, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia, it's like, at that point, who's left?
01:05:32.000You've got America, you've got Western Europe, you have all the usual suspects.
01:05:37.000You've got the European Union, you've got North America, you've got Australia, you've got Japan, South Korea,
01:05:46.000But we're now talking about almost all of the major players on the Eurasian landmass, again with the exception of the European vassal states like France, UK, Germany, are now not just leaning towards China, but they're on China's side.
01:06:03.000They're on the same side as Russia and China.
01:06:08.000And so in a future conflict, let's say a World War III broke out,
01:06:13.000You've got Russia and China on the same side.
01:06:58.000This is about the eroding American system in the world order.
01:07:02.000The other big aspect of this which people are talking about is the currency.
01:07:06.000This is the part which is a lot more tenuous.
01:07:11.000It is true that politically America is losing.
01:07:15.000It is true that economically America is losing.
01:07:19.000But in terms of currency, this is maybe the more tenuous case.
01:07:26.000There have been developments in the past couple of weeks where some countries are agreeing to settle their trade balance in Chinese currency.
01:07:36.000Meaning that traditionally, every country will, when they conduct trade, first...
01:07:43.000They'll use dollars, they'll sell everything and do the trade in dollars and then they'll resettle in their home currencies.
01:07:50.000Meaning that when countries are doing trade with one another, they're not doing it, it's not Saudi Arabia buying goods from China in the Saudi Rial and it's not China going and buying products in Brazil with the Chinese Yuan.
01:08:05.000Countries are first exchanging their native currencies for dollars and then they're conducting trade.
01:08:10.000And that's on top of the fact that all the commodities in the world are measured in dollars.
01:08:17.000So the price of oil, the price of lumber, the price of all the commodities is measured in dollars.
01:08:24.000And that's what it means when people say that the dollar is the reserve currency of the world.
01:08:30.000This is the monetary standard of the world.
01:08:34.000Meaning that this is what every country uses.
01:08:36.000And also, every country maintains massive reserves of American dollars for this purpose.
01:08:44.000And that became a big problem last year when the United States confiscated Russia's foreign currency reserves.
01:08:50.000They've done that to other countries before, but never a country of this size.
01:09:45.000And they could do that to Russia for simply doing something that America didn't like, rather than engaging in terrorism or nuclear proliferation.
01:09:53.000Then they could do it to anybody, and they would do it to anybody.
01:10:00.000America being the arbiter or the owner of the world's reserve currency has to act like an umpire.
01:10:07.000The reason that America's currency is a reserve currency, there's actually a lot of reasons, but among them is that the American currency does not discriminate against foreign buyers of the American dollar.
01:10:19.000The American system is very transparent.
01:10:22.000The corporate governance is very transparent and very fair.
01:10:27.000And so when the United States politicizes and weaponizes their power that they wield over the dollar, they can get away with a lot of things like jacking up the interest rate.
01:10:37.000But when they weaponize the dollar in such a heavy-handed way for a reason which is seemingly partisan... Russia invaded Ukraine.
01:10:47.000Is that something that goes against international norms?
01:10:56.000For it to be weaponized in a significant way for that reason, it shows that nobody's safe.
01:11:02.000It shows that America is willing to wield this power in a way that is pretty arbitrary and very interested.
01:11:10.000And so as a consequence last year a lot of countries began a conversation about settling their trade potentially in other currencies like India began this discussion and Brazil and Saudi Arabia and now we're beginning to actually see that.
01:11:24.000The countries are now buying commodities in the Chinese Yuan and countries are committing to settle their trade in the Chinese currency.
01:11:45.000The agreement between the two BRICS countries, which have $150 billion in annual trade, would probably have been signed in Beijing this week.
01:11:55.000Have Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's scheduled visit not been postponed due to an illness.
01:12:02.000At around the same time, China also conducted its first ever trade of liquefied natural gas settled entirely in Yuan with France's Total Energies.
01:12:12.000The decision by Brazil and China to pursue non-dollar trade is a huge geopolitical moment and a sign that countries are seeking to move away from using the U.S.
01:12:22.000currency in direct response to Washington's abuse of the global reserve currency for its own political aims.
01:12:29.000Although the greenback will of course remain a prominent force in global trade and economics, the Americans' ability to use it as a tool to bully and quash other countries is diminishing.
01:12:43.000I said earlier that we could say that China is indisputably becoming a political player and an economic player but in terms of currency it's still a long ways away from replacing the dollar.
01:12:57.000It is true that other countries are going to look for alternatives.
01:13:03.000And we could simply say that this is hedging.
01:13:06.000They are probably going to want to accumulate other foreign currencies, maybe even look into cryptocurrencies.
01:13:13.000They're going to strike deals like this.
01:13:15.000China is the number one trading partner for many of these countries, and if not number one, they conduct a lot of trade with China.
01:13:23.000And the prospect that America would freeze trade with China in the same way that they did with Russia over a crisis like, say, in Taiwan,
01:13:35.000That's the reason why a Brazil or France or Saudi Arabia would be looking to now denominate their trade in Yuan or settle their trade in Yuan.
01:13:45.000In other words, they can't lose trade with China if America wakes up on the wrong side of the bed and says, we are going to seize China's foreign currency reserves because they invaded Taiwan.
01:13:57.000Unlike with Russia, these other countries simply cannot afford to be cut off.
01:14:02.000From China in the same way, so that's why they're now looking for alternatives.
01:14:05.000That's why they're Looking to conduct trade specifically with China in their native currency but the dollar system is not coming to an end anytime soon and There are a lot of reasons for this it's a very complex issue and a lot of that owes to the fact that the all the countries in the world benefit from
01:16:38.000The money goes all around the world, it goes in and out, and there's really no major currency controls on that.
01:16:47.000And like I said earlier, it's that kind of environment, it's that kind of business environment which allows America to be the reserve currency, among many other reasons.
01:17:19.000And so the idea that all these other countries would be accumulating massive amounts of Chinese currency and they could do that at will, or they could sell it at will, it completely goes against the monetary strategy of the Chinese central bank.
01:17:36.000How they handle their currency, they have one policy domestically and they have one institution for international trade.
01:17:44.000So, for a variety of complex reasons, it's just not going to happen that because France will buy liquefied natural gas and yuan, that that in any way threatens the dominance of the dollar.
01:17:56.000There are a lot of things that are going to have to change for that to happen.
01:18:00.000Because Brazil settles $150 billion worth of trade, in the grand scheme of things, this is not a tremendous amount of money.
01:18:10.000That India may do some trade deals with China and Yuan again.
01:18:14.000This does not in any way threaten the preeminence of the dollar.
01:18:18.000Is the dollar system going to last forever?
01:18:32.000It's probable that over time it's going to be like the power dynamic more democratized and maybe there'll be a day when it'll be a little bit more diverse that there won't be one currency that is the standard for the entire world but it's not going to happen anytime soon and that has a lot to do with
01:18:50.000The monetary policy in China and it also has a lot to do with the structure of countries like China and the fact that they simply cannot afford to have their currency being exported all around the world so long as they're a surplus country producing goods, exporting lots of goods.
01:19:23.000It's not really being given a full treatment on the show tonight, but it is important.
01:19:29.000The point is that these are two very different things.
01:19:32.000China becoming a political player in the world is a totally different situation than the Chinese Yuan being introduced into some of the bilateral trade between China's trading partners.
01:19:46.000It's a completely different situation.
01:19:49.000So US dollar not going away anytime soon, but it's also not something that is necessarily bad for China.
01:19:56.000Those two things are not necessarily opposed to one another.
01:20:00.000In other words, just because the American dollar isn't going anywhere does not discount the fact that China is becoming
01:21:18.000It's a little bit... and everybody keeps saying they're like, well,
01:21:22.000Well, another country adopted the yuan, and another country adopted the yuan.
01:21:26.000The United States dollar is... it is inextricably linked to the global economy.
01:21:37.000So, although the world is going to gradually move away from the dollar over time, it is not happening this year, it is not happening this decade, it is not happening anytime soon.
01:21:49.000And that's because these things happen over time.
01:21:53.000And institutionally, China isn't even seeking this.
01:21:56.000Of course, China became rich off of the current arrangement.
01:22:00.000China became rich off of the manipulation of their currency, which can only occur with the monetary arrangement that they have.
01:22:11.000That can only occur in an environment where America is the reserve currency in the world.
01:22:27.000Factory of the world and That is going to change that economically that will simply have to change their economy will be restructured and there may be a day when they'll be a Deficit country like we are but it's not going to happen anytime soon And so long as that is the economic reality in China that is going to be the reality of currency so
01:22:51.000And by the way, and all of this goes, this is all explaining what's going on, but the big picture is that this is a positive development for us.
01:23:02.000And this is a controversial position because there's a lot of conservatives that will go out there, even like Donald Trump and
01:23:10.000Dissident types will go out there and say that this is a bad thing.
01:23:15.000There are a lot of people that say that we should engage in a war with China or we should engage China in other ways over Taiwan or economically or with trade.
01:23:24.000The problem with this argument, though,
01:23:27.000Is that insofar as America is empowered to take on China, or Russia for that matter, we are empowering not America as our country, we're empowering American decision makers in government.
01:23:42.000And so, when we talk about China's rise, and you'll have conservatives that bemoan the loss, the concession of territory and market share to China,
01:23:55.000You have to ask yourself, who is really losing here?
01:24:03.000If China is expanding its market share in the world, who's losing?
01:24:09.000It's going to be the same American interests.
01:24:12.000The same American interests that are fighting that and resisting that tooth and nail, they're the same ones that are engaging in diversity, equity, and inclusion.
01:24:21.000They're the same ones that are embracing stakeholder capitalism and environmental social governance.
01:24:28.000They're the same ones engaging in censorship.
01:24:30.000They're the same ones footing the bill.
01:24:34.000They're the ones trying to put the small farmers out of business.
01:24:37.000They're the ones trying to put all the other small everything else out of business.
01:24:41.000It's all it's all really the same and you could see that a microcosm of that is with TikTok and we're not going to get to the bills tonight.
01:24:49.000We could talk a little bit about TikTok as this is one of the many battlefields between America and China.
01:24:58.000If you want to visualize it, if you want to make it concrete, the TikTok example is very instructive.
01:25:03.000And I've given this take before, but this is like how everything works.
01:25:08.000TikTok being banned by America, the argument for this goes something like, if TikTok is allowed to operate in America, they're stealing our data.
01:25:19.000They're stealing our data, and the Chinese government can access that, and they could do great harm to America based on this.
01:25:28.000By the same token, I think another reason they want to ban TikTok is that TikTok is the most successful, fastest growing social media platform of the 2020s.
01:25:53.000And it's killing them with their business.
01:25:55.000The business of Facebook is advertisements.
01:25:58.00095% of Facebook's revenue comes from advertisements.
01:26:02.000Amazon, Google are also in the advertisement business.
01:26:06.000TikTok is the hottest market for advertisements, believe it or not.
01:26:11.000So when we say they're at war with each other in business, they are literally at war in the exact same market.
01:26:20.000You think that TikTok is in the social media business, they're in the advertiser business.
01:26:25.000They are a direct competitor to Facebook.
01:26:29.000TikTok gets their money for advertisements, Facebook gets their money through advertisements, and the most coveted demographic, which is the young people,
01:26:40.000TikTok is far more competitive than any property at Meta or frankly any other Silicon Valley property because of course Meta has both Facebook and Instagram.
01:26:52.000It is also killing YouTube which came out with a competitor product called YouTube Shorts.
01:27:00.000So here you have a scenario where America, and specifically these American big tech social media businesses, are just getting killed by TikTok.
01:27:11.000They're getting killed by a Chinese company.
01:27:13.000And they're not getting killed because China's cheating.
01:27:15.000China just came up with a better product.
01:27:21.000Objectively what is taking place is that TikTok is eating America's lunch.
01:27:26.000It's a Chinese-owned company operating in America and competing for American market share against American companies.
01:27:36.000So you could say, and this is the Republican mindset, this is bad for America, it's bad for Americans' privacy, it's bad for these American businesses, and should TikTok be banned, who will be the beneficiary?
01:27:52.000Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and they will be the beneficiary to the tunes of billions of dollars.
01:29:14.000So we look at it for the dissident right and the Chinese-owned platform
01:29:20.000Is empowering creators like Andrew Tate, Tristan Tate, Sneeko, even you could say Nelk, Donald Trump, Alex Jones, you could say to some extent me, you could even say guys like Daniel Schmidt who is able to accrue over 30,000 followers on TikTok in a couple weeks.
01:29:38.000So TikTok being banned benefits Meta and Google.
01:29:44.000It hurts Andrew Tate, Alex Jones, Nick Fuentes, Ye, all the dissidents that are blowing up on the platform.
01:29:52.000And it's not to say that TikTok doesn't censor, but it does say that TikTok plays by a slightly different set of rules.
01:29:58.000Certainly they are subject to similar pressures, but not the same pressures, because they're not American companies.
01:30:07.000They don't have that Silicon Valley bullshit.
01:30:10.000They may have to abide by certain ADL pressures, but they don't really believe them and they're not institutionally entrenched in the same way.
01:30:19.000So insofar as TikTok has more market share, it's better for us, objectively.
01:31:13.000When Edward Snowden blew the whistle on the NSA and revealed that the NSA was illegally spying on Americans and harvesting their metadata and unmasking Americans in the metadata, and that they were spying on people's phones through their microphone, through their camera, through their smart TVs, where was the only place that Edward Snowden was safe from extradition or assassination?
01:31:37.000Compare the fate of Edward Snowden with Julian Assange.
01:31:42.000Julian Assange was held up in an embassy in Europe for a decade and had treatable illnesses that he suffered from and was starved and was isolated and was kept in basically a prison and ultimately was extradited and is currently being tortured in America.
01:32:04.000For a fact, we know that he's being tortured.
01:32:07.000Edward Snowden is living out his life in Russia.
01:32:35.000Because Russia is powerful enough that they can resist political pressure to extradite and they can also protect him from any attempt by American military to drag Edward Snowden out of there against the will of the Russian government.
01:32:52.000So in other words, if Iran and Saudi Arabia and Turkey and Belarus and India become like this, you are now expanding the jurisdiction where maybe American dissidents might be safe.
01:33:07.000American dissidents are not safe in Europe.
01:33:17.000American dissidents anywhere in Latin America
01:33:20.000We'll either be extradited or they will be picked up.
01:33:23.000They will be picked up by the American military.
01:33:27.000So, once again, when it becomes concrete, we see that the more that America's adversaries rise, the more that they are creating a world that is safe for American dissidents.
01:33:40.000In the same way that maybe Alexei Navalny isn't safe in Russia, he's safe in America.
01:33:45.000In the same way that a North Korean defector isn't safe in North Korea, they're safe in America.
01:33:51.000So if you seek the ruin of the current regime, you necessarily have to cheer for when the power projection capacity of the American regime recedes against China, Russia, whoever.
01:34:07.000Now granted, ideally America would be the superpower of the world, led by the right people.
01:34:16.000If Ye were in charge of America, if he were the dictator,
01:34:20.000We would want America to crush all of this.
01:34:23.000We would want America to put all of this down.
01:34:26.000I don't buy into these arguments about other countries should be free and all that.
01:34:34.000Now don't get me wrong, we should seek harmony and we should try to engage in genuine diplomacy and the policy should be mutual prosperity.
01:34:43.000But we should seek our advantage wherever it's appropriate and wherever it's doable.
01:34:48.000As long as we have a government that genuinely represents the interests of the people, to some extent.
01:34:54.000It's never going to be perfect, there will always be corruption, and leaders can make mistakes.
01:34:59.000But what we have right now is a government that is not only not representing the people, but at war with its own people.
01:35:06.000And so that's why, in the American Revolution, it was beneficial for us to have the support of the French.
01:35:16.000And that's why during the Civil War, maybe the South would have won if they had the support of the British, which they almost did at one point.
01:35:26.000And you see how these things play out.
01:35:27.000The Nazis sent Vladimir Lenin back to Russia during World War I, and ultimately the ruin that was visited upon Russia in World War I gave birth to the Soviet regime in the same way that the ruin that was brought to Germany in World War I gave rise to Hitler.
01:35:46.000That is a necessary precondition to regime change, and I'm not saying we want Hitler, we want Stalin, or we want a British-controlled Jewish Confederacy.
01:35:58.000I am saying that it is a fact of politics that when we're going up against the regime, we need a powerful
01:36:07.000Agent from outside an extrinsic powerful force from outside to make that happen because by Necessity there is no power strong enough within the country that can challenge the regime The regime is the most powerful.
01:36:24.000So there's nothing within the country that can challenge it Now there are things that can confront it.
01:36:29.000There are things that can become a nuisance there are things that can
01:36:34.000Rally against it but by necessity if there was anything powerful enough to displace it.
01:36:39.000Well, it would happen But it's by the virtue of the fact that the regime is the regime that it's unchallenged and and it's not even close so that's why it requires China becoming more powerful than America for the American regime to be able to be displaced.
01:37:13.000So that is why necessarily it is a good thing for American dissidents that China is able to broker these deals and that Saudi Arabia and Iran turn away.
01:38:29.000China going in and humiliating America.
01:38:32.000The only loser in that situation is the Pentagon, the DoD, the State Department, the American firms, Silicon Valley, and all these institutions are working against us.
01:39:45.000And so the things that they're not getting from their own country, they're getting from Africa.
01:39:50.000And they're buying the political and diplomatic support of Africa.
01:39:56.000And so you've got between Africa, Russia, India, China, Saudi Arabia, and Iran, you've got most of the world's fossil fuels, you've got most of the world's critical minerals and other raw materials, you've got the vast majority of the world's population, you've got the countries that will be the majority of the world's population a century from now,
01:40:20.000Countries like Nigeria, Congo, Ghana, Tanzania, these countries are going to be the population leaders in this century.
01:40:32.000China and India are the population leaders now, and they will be, but they've got to hold on the population of the present and the population of the future.
01:40:42.000The critical minerals and materials of the present and of the future.
01:40:46.000They've got the manufacturing of the past and the present.
01:40:49.000They make the shoes and the toys and the cheap garbage from Amazon.
01:40:55.000They've also are building a semiconductor ecosystem.
01:40:58.000And they're also building quantum computers and hypersonic missiles.
01:41:03.000Allied with Russia, they also have the world's number one nuclear arsenal.
01:41:07.000Allied with Turkey, they have the world's largest army in Europe.
01:41:11.000Allied with Saudi Arabia, they've got the world's largest reserves of oil.
01:41:17.000So when you think about what we're talking about here, we're talking about a far-reaching coalition of independent states that is going to account for all the stuff, all the gas, all the oil, all the rocks, all the people.
01:41:46.000That doesn't mean that America's down and out, but it does mean that America needs to rethink its strategy here.
01:41:52.000Because what we think we have, which is bullying people with the banking system, and bullying people with the American market, it's not as powerful as we thought it was.
01:42:02.000We shut down Russia, and Russia's doing fine.
01:42:04.000Could we shut down China without destroying ourself?
01:42:20.000So it's a major sea change in the global balance of power.
01:42:23.000We're getting to the point where all of China's allies together will be able to defeat the United States alone and maybe with all the United States allies.
01:48:30.000Most of the people criticizing me about the incel thing are fornicators who are not married.
01:48:37.000And so that tells you that for them, they are not against the incel thing, or my thing, because they're really sticking to the Bible here, and they're just, oh hey, God's orders, we're just, we're just being, you're not being fruitful and multiplying, you're just fornicating.
01:48:56.000And so it's about this guilt complex of, here I am telling people that you should not
01:49:24.000These guys out there, they're living a life
01:49:28.000Which they know is wrong, which they know is honestly petty, and I wouldn't even really care all that much to tell you the truth.
01:49:35.000I'm not... Understand, I'm not going out there and chastising them.
01:49:39.000I'm not going out there and saying, I hate this... I mean, have you ever heard me do a show where I say this fornicator and that fornicator?
01:50:05.000But the people that lash out at me for having my life, which is not fixated on those things, they're all fornicators that feel this guilt.
01:50:14.000They see me talking about my life and my priorities and my focus, and I'm sure they feel very embarrassed and guilty about the fact that their life has been consumed with fornication.
01:50:28.000And that rather than, you know, I look at Doyle and the reason I keep throwing him out there as an example is because here's a guy who doesn't work.
01:50:49.000In addition to all sorts of other activities.
01:50:53.000This guy makes three videos in a year.
01:50:57.000But he's flying to Austin, Texas to fornicate.
01:51:00.000He's flying to other states to fornicate.
01:51:04.000And so I'm sure he doesn't do protests, he doesn't do rallies, he doesn't do conferences, he doesn't make videos, he doesn't stream, he don't do anything.
01:51:16.000Other than collect his blaze bucks and fornicate.
01:51:19.000And so when you see the real deal like me go out there and say, I'm married to what I do.
01:54:27.000And this idea of like you need to give me some some out some cope of like here's why Here's why he's not it's like because I'm I want to be a great man and so the idea of Flying around and fornicating with every e-girl who gives me attention.
01:54:44.000It's just not consistent with that at all That's what makes me different So
01:54:52.000I don't like when people say, well, fornicating is a sin.
01:54:56.000It's like, I'm not not fornicating because it's a sin.
01:58:16.000They betray themselves all the time when they say things like, JFK deserved to get shot because he cheated on his wife, who's so beautiful.
01:58:24.000Or when they say things like, I'm gonna put a village to the sword for my girl.
01:58:29.000Or when Kai Klipsch said something like, and I hate to shit on him when he's not in the country, but he said something like, women nag us because they care about us and I like that and blah blah blah.
01:58:39.000It's like, so you don't, it's not even about getting your rocks off for you, it is about literally marrying your mom.
01:58:53.000Because you you flew the coop and now you want to marry your mom and bring your mom back into your house and you want your mom to make your schedule and lay out your lay out your underwear for you and you want your mom to uh your wife mom you want your mom wife your your sister wife wife mom to come in and fucking boss you around and tell you what to do and for you to cry into her shoulders
01:59:21.000And so the difference is, here I am saying you have to cut the umbilical cord and be a man.
01:59:27.000I am not saying do not have a girlfriend.
01:59:30.000I am not saying do not have sex with women.
02:00:09.000You would think Groypers are all incels.
02:00:12.000Do you know how many wedding invitations I've had to turn down?
02:00:16.000There are so many gripers who are married and have kids and have family, but you know what they're not doing?
02:00:21.000They're not doing it so that their girlfriend can run their fingers through their hair and tell them what a good job they did, and they're not doing it so that they can watch Disney movies and just get away from it all.
02:00:34.000They're not getting a girlfriend so that they could get told what to do and have their life regimented by somebody
