00:09:01.000But we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covet means, on an understanding of the sphere of influence.
00:09:18.000What makes Christianity and Christ so different from the other religions is that our religion is based on the bearing of suffering for the sake of even those that persecute us.
00:10:37.000Read as many books as you can, learn a language, learn an instrument, get the best grades you can, get into a good school, and just don't mess around.
00:10:46.000You turn like 18, 20, and then it just goes at light speed.
00:10:50.000And if you are wasting time, years will go by.
00:10:54.000And you will wake up when you're 25 years old and say, I thought I would have accomplished more by now.
00:10:59.000Why am I still stuck in the same place?
00:11:03.000Let time be your ally by working every single day at what you think you want to be doing in 20 years.
00:11:17.000The servant who received five talents invested it and earned five more.
00:11:22.000The one who received two talents also invested wisely and earned two more.
00:11:28.000But the servant who received one talent went and dug a hole in the ground and hid his master's money.
00:11:35.000When the master returned, the servant with five talents said, Master, you gave me five and look, I've gained five more.
00:11:43.000The master replied, Well done, good and faithful servant, because you have been faithful with little.
00:13:01.000Let's say that Kamala Harris had won the election in 2024.
00:13:04.000If Kamala doubled down on supporting Ukraine as Trump has, if Kamala bombed Iran, there'd be riots in the streets.1.00
00:13:12.000People would say our illegitimate president, who cheated her way into the nomination, she's expanding the war, she's expanding World War III into the Middle East.0.93
00:13:21.000Everybody would say this is illegitimate, this is like a crime.
00:13:24.000But because it was Trump, 90% of Republicans supported Trump bombing Iran on Israel's behalf.
00:14:04.000After October 7th, the Jews knew that the Republican Party, controlled by AIPAC, controlled by Israel, and with Trump in office, they were going to let Israel do whatever they wanted to do.0.86
00:15:03.000When Israel was under attack, They played into the right wing because they knew that the Republican Party would say things like, There's a Muslim takeover of America.
00:30:06.000If Israel controls that region, How rich, how powerful can they become?0.77
00:30:12.000My issue with Iranian regime change is that we are creating an Israeli superpower that not even we will be able to restrain.0.71
00:30:22.000Look at how they have used us like an instrument.0.96
00:30:25.000They stole a nuclear arsenal from us, they got all of this military technology from us, we defeated their foes, and now we have essentially handed this to them.
00:30:34.000Now they're ready to cut the umbilical cord and become their own superpower.
00:30:38.000We endured the cost, we paid the money, our soldiers died, our country burned so that.0.97
00:30:43.000A Israeli superpower could be born, and now our country will be in the wreckage.0.96
00:44:02.000I be from the back, she gripping them covers like she on her last leg She look like she belong on a cover this whole game covered in everything I'm gonna vibe, I'll take a banana, but she is not getting wet in rain If he wants to interview Nick Fuente Get the word out Ten whole vibes in this brewlet, we just ate ten whole thousand for dinner I got a pent up type of aggression, I'm bout to go mental, tryna suppress it They don't make no noise, be suppressed I spent your whole life on my necklace Couldn't tell which one I like better,
00:44:32.000so I'm getting both kinds of that shit I'm taking that dinner, I got your whole crying off my mother It's undeniable.0.99
00:49:04.000They use artificial intelligence to look at vast amounts of data and create insights.
00:49:11.000If the government has an amount of data which is kind of unimaginable, if you've got every phone call, every email, every transaction, every photograph of a license plate on the highway, satellite data, it's too much data for a bureaucracy to sift through.
00:49:29.000Comes in and interprets the data using algorithms, using artificial intelligence, using software to make vast amounts of data usable.
00:57:30.000The United States military began major combat operations in Iran.0.93
00:57:37.000To consign the American empire to destruction while they look forward to a golden age, while they look forward to a century of empire and domination.0.92
00:57:47.000Maybe we can't stop it, but I'm not going along with it.
00:58:24.000When Syria and Egypt launched a surprise attack on Israel, which started the Yom Kippur War on October 6th, 1973, almost 50 years exactly before October 7th, Israel was almost overrun.
00:58:37.000And the United States was reluctant to provide them with the military support that they needed to defend themselves.
00:58:43.000So, the prime minister of Israel, Golda Meir, called up Nixon and said, If you don't help us, we will nuke Syria and Egypt.
00:59:26.000We're like the SWAT team of Free Thought, and I go on with this battle ram at the door, and then they come in with these laser beams and have that information.0.94
00:59:51.000Groyper dating app, do, AF legal team to represent Groyper's who are fired from work or kicked out of school for being a Groyper.0.96
00:59:56.000My fault if this makes you crash out.1.00
01:14:41.000So it's totally fair for us to recognize that the countries around Russia, no, we shouldn't be invading or torturing them or oppressing them.
01:14:50.000And big picture, holy smokes, you do not want the two largest powers in the world, apart from the United States, to get together and align against us.
01:14:59.000Why do you support Israel against Hamas, for example?
01:15:04.000Why do you support America giving them billions of dollars?
01:26:05.000Last thing I'm going to say about it, because I don't want to crash out again for, you know, 100 minutes like I did the other day, but...1.00
01:31:54.000In 2026, in the midterms, we are showing up and the Gripers are showing up with us.0.96
01:43:12.000Days after the September attacks, there were countless rumors about strange coincidences surrounding the events.1.00
01:43:19.000One report about a group of Middle Eastern men spotted the morning of September 11th parked just across the river from New York City has not gone away.
01:58:49.000That America was different because we are different.
01:59:11.000What makes Christianity and Christ so different from the other religions is that our religion is based on the bearing of suffering for the sake of even those that persecute us, of life, and all.
01:59:39.000An unconditional, absolute standard of love for all of God's children, even those that are misguided, even those that persecute us, even the most heinous among us.
02:00:30.000Read as many books as you can, learn a language, learn an instrument, get the best grades you can, get into a good school, and just don't mess around.
02:00:38.000You turn like 18, 20, and then just goes at light speed.
02:00:43.000And if you are wasting time, years will go by.
02:00:46.000And you will wake up when you're 25 years old and say, I thought I would have accomplished more by now.

02:00:55.000Let time be your ally by working every single day at what you think you want to be doing in 20 years.
02:01:09.000The servant who received five talents invested it and earned five more.
02:01:15.000The one who received two talents also invested wisely and earned two more.
02:01:20.000But the servant who received one talent went and dug a hole in the ground and hid his master's money.

02:03:16.000But because it was Trump, 90% of Republicans supported Trump bombing Iran on Israel's behalf.
02:03:56.000After October 7th, the Jews knew that the Republican Party, controlled by AIPAC, controlled by Israel, and with Trump in office, they were going to let Israel do whatever they wanted to do.0.84
02:04:55.000When Israel was under attack, They played into the right wing because they knew that the Republican Party would say things like, There's a Muslim takeover of America.
02:28:36.000Looked like the United States and Israel were going to resume a conflict with Iran as recently as Saturday.
02:28:44.000There were reports that Israeli fighter jets were flying over northern Iraq, preparing to engage Iran.0.97
02:28:50.000And we were going to start it all up again.
02:28:53.000And then at the last hour, it was announced that there is potentially a memorandum of understanding or an Iran deal.
02:29:00.000That will end the war for 30 to 60 days.
02:29:04.000Now, there's been some new developments in just the past 24 hours.
02:29:08.000The United States bombed the coast of Iran, which we are claiming was a defensive action.0.99
02:29:15.000So we are apparently so close to a deal.
02:29:20.000We have agreed on some major concessions on both sides.0.55
02:29:25.000And then yesterday, there is apparently another all out attack on Iran's southern coast.
02:29:30.000We're claiming it was a defensive offensive operation.
02:29:34.000We bombed them defensively, which doesn't really make sense.
02:29:40.000But they say this was in response to Iranian actions against U.S. vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.
02:29:48.000Now, Iran says that they will be retaliating against that defensive action.
02:29:54.000In response to this, Marco Rubio says that there is a deal in the works, but it's going to take a little bit more time now because we have to wait for all this to settle.
02:30:04.000So, we're going to talk all tonight about these developments.
02:30:07.000We'll talk about what's been going on for the past four or five days.
02:30:11.000And the biggest thing is, we're going to talk about what breakthrough has been made in diplomacy, because, like we've discussed for the past 80 days, 90 days, and really for the past couple of years, is that the central impasse at the center of all of this is over Iran's nuclear program.
02:30:30.000Neither side is willing to come down from their red line on this.
02:30:35.000As we've discussed repeatedly, the United States must insist on zero nuclear enrichment for Iran.
02:30:44.000Iran insists that enrichment is equivalent to their sovereignty.
02:30:48.000They would sooner give up control over their country than they would their right to enrich.
02:30:54.000And so this has been the intractable difference at the center of negotiations for as long as we have been negotiating with Iran, even going back to 2015 with the JCPOA.
02:31:06.000And so it seems that there might be some movement on a couple of key issues here, specifically as it pertains to their already existing stockpile of highly enriched uranium and what we are willing to let them do with it and what they are willing to do with it, as well as now, since the start of this conflict, how the Strait of Hormuz will be governed after the war.
02:31:31.000And that has become another defining issue in diplomacy.
02:31:35.000So we're going to talk specifically about those things.
02:31:39.000The architecture of this deal, what it might look like, how it's going to happen, and we're going to talk about the prospect of whether it will happen at all.0.85
02:31:48.000Because, of course, goes without saying, the wild card in the entire equation is Israel.0.75
02:31:55.000This is like the most impossible deal.0.96
02:31:58.000You have two countries that do not trust each other.
02:32:01.000In particular, two leaders, two regimes that hate each other and want to kill each other.
02:32:15.000And even if there is some miraculous way to thread the needle, And we get Iran on board and we bluff and we use brinksmanship and we beg and we do everything in our arsenal, every menu item at our disposal to get them to the table.0.97
02:32:35.000Israel still might blow up the whole thing.0.99
02:32:37.000And they've done it before and they can.0.99
02:32:40.000And I think I know exactly how they're going to do it.
02:32:42.000As a matter of fact, we sort of already have an idea about that.
02:32:46.000And it has everything to do with the conflict in Lebanon.
02:33:08.000The Republican primary for the Texas Senate seat was determined today.
02:33:14.000It was a race between John Cornyn and Ken Paxton, the previous attorney general of Texas.
02:33:19.000And for those that follow Texas politics, this is a very serious battle.
02:33:25.000It's a Major bellwether about the direction of the party.
02:33:30.000John Cornyn, the Texas senator, is a very senior member of the U.S. Senate, and he's about as rhino as it gets.
02:33:37.000He is one of these holdovers from the previous generation of Republican senators and congressmen, and he probably ranks among the absolute worst in the Senate on the Republican side.
02:33:50.000Frequently votes against Trump on the good things he tries to get done, is not an immigration patriot, among other things.
02:33:58.000He is objectively one of the least America first members of the Republican Party in the Senate.
02:34:05.000Ken Paxton, on the other hand, is grassroots, America first, very strong immigration restrictionist.
02:34:12.000And I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised.
02:34:15.000I think a lot of people were when just a few weeks ago, President Trump came out and endorsed Ken Paxton.
02:34:22.000People didn't really know what side he was going to come down on, and ultimately he made the right call.
02:34:26.000And it seems like maybe that endorsement pushed Paxton over the edge, and he won tonight.
02:34:33.000Now, it's an open ended question whether he will win the general.
02:34:36.000It's expected to be very competitive, but finally, some good news.
02:34:41.000I think overall reflects a positive direction for the Republican Party, especially in a state like Texas.
02:34:48.000So, if we have time, we'll get into that.
02:34:50.000I don't have too much to say about it other than that's the candidate that we like, that's the outcome we wanted.
02:34:57.000And so, I can, you know, try and make up some stuff about it, but, you know, we're happy.
02:35:03.000So, if we have time, we'll get into that.
02:35:05.000But that's going to be our news for the night.
02:35:07.000Before we get into it, I want to remind you to smash the follow button, smash the like button, leave a comment.
02:35:11.000Let me know what you think about the show.
02:35:14.000Remember to check out our merch store at Fuentes.store.
02:35:17.000We have our brand new spring and summer collection, the brand new hat, brand new quarter zip, hoodies, sweatshirts, all that stuff, this quarter zip.
02:35:27.000And the reason I'm not wearing a suit this week, I was supposed to take all my stuff to the dry cleaner this weekend.
02:35:34.000So I stuffed it all in a bag, you know?
02:35:37.000I took all my suits and all my shirts and just stuffed them in this bag, but then I didn't drop it off because I just kept waking up too late.
02:38:30.000He said, Oh, the Trump administration's going after me, an Israel critic, and you're in favor of it.
02:38:37.000And I want to say to these people anybody, by the way, that thinks Hassan Piker is a victim because the DOJ is coming after him over his ties to Cuba, do not forget that the left wing was the architect of all censorship.
02:40:06.000But all these people with the Ukraine flag in the bio.
02:40:10.000People are getting a little carried away with this kind of left wing LARP.0.98
02:40:14.000Listen, I want the Democrats with the tidal blue wave to wash away the Trump administration and all the Israel first Jews that are benefiting from it.1.00
02:41:31.000They're not going to discriminate against who's a performative male and who isn't, who's drinking matcha and who isn't, who criticized Trump and who didn't.
02:41:53.000But don't kid yourself and think that we're on the team with these Democrats.
02:41:58.000In New York, they're talking about taxing white neighborhoods to pay for the free busing and the free groceries.0.86
02:42:04.000In Minneapolis, they're celebrating the sixth anniversary of the ascension of George Floyd into heaven while they let Somalians steal $9 billion.0.99
02:42:15.000And Assan Piker wants some transsexual to put an IED under your car.1.00
02:42:21.000Like, that's who we're dealing with.0.98
02:42:23.000So, Anyway, so I saw him say that on Twitter.
02:44:07.000These are satanic people waging a spiritual attack on, you know, on this lovable human being, like on this lovable, big hearted guy with the world in his eyes.0.92
02:44:19.000And it just feels like something's off, like the vibes are off.
02:47:25.000We're going to get into our featured story, our news, which is all about the war in Iran.
02:47:31.000And it's been a pretty dynamic situation.
02:47:33.000Honestly, I was a little bit surprised at the developments from this weekend.
02:47:39.000Last time we discussed the war, I believe it was last week.
02:47:43.000And where we left off is that there was this deal in the works.
02:47:47.000And the Trump administration has been telling us that we are negotiating with Iran, we are considering their peace proposal.
02:47:55.000There's been this back and forth between Tehran and Washington through Pakistan and Qatar on what is supposed to be a framework agreement for a temporary ceasefire.
02:48:08.000And so, when we reviewed the timeline last Thursday, we talked about how the United States submits a proposal.
02:48:15.000And what we say is we're going to end our blockade over the Strait.
02:49:06.000You're hearing this phrase thrown around a lot we need to open the Strait.
02:49:11.000But that is a bit deceptive, that's not actually specific enough.
02:49:15.000Currently, Iran has closed the strait because they're threatening to attack any unauthorized shipping that goes through the strait with drones and missiles.
02:49:25.000And so, as such, none of these commercial ships are insured and none of them want to take the perilous journey.
02:49:31.000It's a very narrow choke point that you basically have a 100% chance of being targeted and struck by a projectile.
02:49:40.000So, they have shut down all the commercial shipping going through.
02:49:46.000And on the United States side, We have threatened to attack any authorized Iranian shipping that goes through the Strait.
02:49:55.000So, Iran has about a half dozen ports in the Persian Gulf, which they use for their own bilateral trade, all kinds of commercial activity.0.56
02:50:05.000Those ships also go through the Strait, obviously, with their permission, because they are them.
02:50:11.000And the United States is using its Blue Water Navy, its destroyers, carriers, helicopters to attack Iranian commercial shipping that they authorize to go through the Strait.
02:50:21.000Now, when Washington says we want to open the strait, this can actually mean a couple of different things.
02:50:29.000Iran has actually agreed to open the strait, but Iran wants to maintain control over it.
02:50:37.000So Iran will have it open, but all shipping will need their permission to go through, and Iran would like to collect a toll on every ship, which is about $1 per barrel of oil, which is $2 million per ship.
02:50:52.000So, Iran is telling us, look, we'll open the strait no problem, but it's ours.
02:51:34.000This is what Washington insists on.0.50
02:51:37.000Number two, Washington needs some commitment from Iran on their nuclear program.
02:51:44.000Now, remember, the two big things that the United States is looking for is one, they need Iran to commit to zero enrichment, no centrifuges, no enrichment, not at low levels.
02:51:55.000And even if there are restrictions on enrichment, they eventually want Iran to phase it out completely.
02:52:01.000So they don't want Iran to even have the capability to enrich any more uranium.
02:52:07.000Number two, Iran already has a 900 pound stockpile of highly enriched uranium, which would not take long to further enrich to weapons grade, which they could use in a nuclear bomb.
02:52:20.000So the United States, on top of stopping their enrichment capability, we want them to forfeit or turn over their existing stockpile.
02:52:29.000Now, in this negotiation, they have said, the United States has said, that Iran does not necessarily need to give up the enrichment right away or even necessarily turn over the highly enriched uranium right away.
02:52:42.000We're looking for a commitment that they will do something like this.
02:53:05.000Iran has additional demands on top of this.
02:53:09.000For Iran to accept a ceasefire, they need a truce in Lebanon.
02:53:13.000Currently, Israel is carrying out a very aggressive campaign against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon.
02:53:19.000They've displaced millions of people, killed thousands.
02:53:23.000And so Iran is seeking a truce between Israel and Lebanon to prevent Israel from invading that country and then potentially annexing territory.
02:53:33.000So, Iran will not accept a ceasefire with the United States unless the United States can compel Israel to make a ceasefire with Hezbollah in Lebanon.
02:53:48.000The other big condition that Iran has is they are looking for reparations.
02:53:53.000And they have said repeatedly they will collect the reparations in some form.
02:53:58.000Either they expect a payment from the United States or they would like to recoup.
02:54:03.000The damages by collecting a toll on the strait, or they want their money unfrozen and sanctions lifted that had been previously frozen under the US led sanctions regime.
02:54:18.000As the United States is really looking for those two major strategic objectives, we basically want to reset to before the war started, open the strait the way it was before the war, and we at least need some commitment just realistically to save face.0.62
02:54:37.000That you're going to give up your nuclear program.0.79
02:54:39.000Well, Iran, because they have all the leverage, realistically, they are exerting all the pressure on the United States, they're asking for a little bit more.
02:54:48.000They're refusing these demands and they want a ransom and they want, realistically, to bolster their other allies in Lebanon, which is not, strictly speaking, part of the Iran equation.0.58
02:55:02.000The United States entered this conflict to try to degrade Iran's missiles.
02:55:07.000And last year, entered in with Midnight Hammer to destroy Iran's nuclear facilities.0.51
02:55:12.000The Israel Lebanon conflict has really been going on for about 40 or 50 years.0.55
02:55:18.000And so, for Iran to couple that or bundle that with a deal that ends the war over the Persian Gulf, they're actually just trying to get as much as possible here.
02:55:29.000So, this was the state of the play for the past few weeks.
02:55:31.000And this is why I said for a long time there's really going to be no deal.
02:55:35.000Iran is not going to give up nuclear, they're not going to give up the Strait.
02:55:39.000And the United States can't leave without securing either of those things.
02:55:43.000So, this weekend, it looked like the United States and Israel were preparing to go back to war.
02:55:48.000Trump has been threatening this for the past two months.
02:55:51.000He has repeatedly insisted that if Iran does not make a deal on some arbitrary timeline, that eventually we would hit them again.
02:56:01.000And what that looks like is subject to a lot of speculation about what we are willing to tolerate in terms of retaliation.
02:56:10.000Trump has talked about invading the mainland, invading the islands.
02:56:14.000Or escalating the bombing against Iran's civilian infrastructure, their oil industry, their Karg Island, where they export all the oil, or just resuming the bombing of military and regime targets, potentially more assassination strikes.
02:56:29.000And so Trump has been bluffing for months that if Iran doesn't come to the table, we're going back in.
02:56:34.000And it seemed like maybe this weekend that was actually going to be the case.
02:56:38.000Well, Saturday, it was announced that the U.S. and Iran were on the precipice of reaching a deal.
02:56:45.000They're calling it a memorandum of understanding, an MOU.
02:56:59.000It's a ceasefire, it's a very informal way of ending the conflict.
02:57:03.000And what was said on Saturday was truly unbelievable.
02:57:08.000Saturday night, there were all kinds of rumors going around, and they effectively said that Iran had agreed to give up their highly enriched uranium.
02:57:18.000And they said, among other things, that.
02:57:21.000That the United States would allow Iran to keep control over the Strait, and that Iran would be allowed to charge a toll over the Strait.
02:57:29.000And maybe they'd call it something else.0.58
02:57:31.000They'd say they were collecting a fee to protect the environment, but they'd be collecting money off of this.
02:57:38.000And so it seemed that on Saturday night, suddenly, all of these deep seated issues where there was no agreement at all and no willingness to compromise had all of a sudden been papered over, and the whole thing was over.
02:57:51.000As quickly as that was announced, it became clear that there was actually no agreement.
02:57:57.000And Iran has not agreed to give up their highly enriched uranium.
02:58:00.000The United States has not agreed to give Iran control over the Strait.
02:58:04.000As of today, Iran insists they will not make a deal unless they get $25 billion in unfrozen assets, unless the conflict in Lebanon ends, and it's unclear if they've agreed in any capacity to give up their highly enriched uranium.
02:58:21.000In the background of all these negotiations, the United States launched a major strike.
02:58:33.000It says, quote, hours after Iranian negotiators arrived in Qatar for talks on ending the war, U.S. forces struck missile launch sites in Iran and boats trying to place mines.
02:58:44.000U.S. Central Command characterized the strikes in southern Iran as defensive and said they had been intended to protect our troops from threats posed by Iranian forces.
02:58:54.000On Monday evening, after vowing that any agreement reached would be great and meaningful or there would be no deal, President Trump said he expected Iran either to turn its enriched uranium over to the United States or to destroy it in front of neutral witnesses.
02:59:08.000It is unclear if Iran has agreed to this, though a senior U.S. official told reporters on Sunday that the Iranians had, in principle, committed to giving up stockpiles of enriched uranium.
02:59:20.000On Monday, Esmael Baghe, the Iranian foreign ministry spokesman, said Iran was not discussing details of its nuclear program.
02:59:29.000So again, you get this aspect of things where on Saturday, the U.S. says they agreed to give it up.
02:59:35.000And then on Monday, we say, well, they agreed to let the IAEA come in and oversee the dilution of their stockpile.
02:59:44.000And within hours, Iran says, we're not even talking about that.
02:59:47.000That's not even up for discussion right now.
02:59:50.000And Iran has said repeatedly, especially in the past two weeks, we will defer any discussion of the nuclear file until later.
02:59:58.000The ceasefire talks, a truce would be entirely separate from that.
03:00:02.000That is something they will consider down the line.
03:00:04.000So it seems like it's just, these are more lies.
03:00:07.000This seems to be like more misdirection.
03:00:10.000But the article goes on it says the fate of Iran's nuclear program was just one critical aspect of a potential peace deal that remained unclear on Monday.
03:00:19.000So was the status of Iran's stockpile of missiles.
03:00:22.000It was also unclear how an agreement might address, excuse me, Iranian attempts to assert control over the Strait of Hormuz.
03:00:29.000Though Mr. Trump has at various times said a deal was close, He also said that his negotiators were in no rush to close the agreement.
03:00:36.000The Iranian foreign ministry spokesman said on Monday It is true that we have reached conclusions on a large portion of the issues, but no one can claim that signing of an agreement is imminent.
03:01:47.000There is nothing we can do to compel Iran to negotiate.0.55
03:01:52.000There is nothing we can do that prevents Iran from closing the strait.0.59
03:01:56.000Nothing we can do to destabilize or to undermine the regime.0.95
03:02:01.000We are in a position where we are effectively at their mercy and we are just scrambling, looking for something, some kind of creative solution, some kind of creative solution.
03:02:11.000Military option where we can get out of this brutal reality, but we're just not finding it.
03:02:18.000They don't believe our bluff because we have no credibility.
03:02:22.000They know we have no military options.
03:02:25.000This blockade of the Persian Gulf that we have going, it might be inflicting some economic pain, but they're in an existential war for survival.
03:02:38.000Meanwhile, the global economy is still suffering from this energy shock, which is ongoing.
03:02:45.000So, this is an unequivocal strategic defeat for the United States.
03:02:50.000And it seems like now the retreat is just happening in slow motion.
03:02:54.000There is obviously this very strong desire for a withdrawal.
03:03:00.000The United States wants this to be over, but they cannot make it happen without losing face.
03:03:06.000And that is something maybe they haven't accepted yet.
03:03:08.000So it's just happening slowly over time.
03:03:11.000And the reason I say this is because every one of these developments follows the exact same pattern, which is we hear a statement from the president in the press pool or the West Wing or the Oval Office.
03:03:25.000And they will say something like, Iran wants to make a deal more than anyone knows.
03:04:02.000They have made concessions on key issues.
03:04:04.000He doesn't use those words, but that is what is planted in the press.
03:04:09.000And then inevitably, what follows is the Iranian response, which is they will come back and they will continue to say, as they have since the beginning, these are our terms take them or leave them.
03:04:22.000We're going to control the straight.0.90
03:04:23.000We're not giving up our nuclear program.
03:04:35.000That has been their proposal to end the conflict since the conflict started and hasn't changed at all.
03:04:42.000Those have always been the key ingredients.
03:04:44.000Even since the first ceasefire was promulgated, they said a ceasefire in Lebanon.
03:04:49.000We want control over the strait and to charge tolls.
03:04:52.000We're not negotiating over nuclear.0.83
03:04:54.000And we want U.S. forces to withdraw from the region, whether that's from the bases or at the minimum to pull back the blue water navy that's stationed in the Arabian Sea.0.91
03:06:19.000They have not destroyed Iran's stockpile of highly enriched uranium, have not destroyed Iran's nuclear complex, have not significantly even degraded Iran's missile capability.
03:06:32.000They have achieved none of these things.0.54
03:06:34.000If the conflict ends tomorrow, then Washington and Israel must assume that Iran is going to get right back to work, and they already have, rebuilding all these capabilities.0.92
03:06:48.000The regime will get stronger and more dug in.0.87
03:06:51.000They're going to dig up the highly enriched uranium.
03:06:54.000They probably have centrifuges we don't know about, and they will continue enrichment.
03:06:58.000They will build more drones and missiles.
03:07:00.000They will solidify their control over the Strait.0.78
03:07:03.000And if Iran is a defiant, revisionist power, maybe permanently or more hostile after this has happened, then that means that this is something the U.S. and Israel are going to want to address down the line.0.90
03:07:17.000And the way the U.S. and Israel see it is well, We've weakened them, and now we don't have to worry about them for a little while.0.84
03:07:25.000But in a little while, Iran will have reconstituted everything that we destroyed in this conflict, and you have this sunk cost idea that we have to move now, we have to move quickly, we have to be aggressive, or else everything we've done up to this point has been a waste.0.94
03:07:43.000Everything that we've knocked out and destroyed, the price we paid to do it, it will have been undone in a matter of six to 12 months.0.80
03:07:52.000So, there's something fundamental to this dynamic that Iran knows this does not end.0.95
03:07:57.000The US and Israel are going to keep coming back.0.93
03:08:00.000We hit them last year and then we came back this year.1.00
03:08:04.000If we end the conflict now, we're probably going to come back a year from now or two years from now, sooner rather than later.0.89
03:08:10.000So, what Iran is principally concerned with is how do we deter the next attack?0.80
03:08:17.000As long as Israel exists and as long as the United States is under Israel's influence, then it's only a matter of time.0.82
03:08:24.000Before there's another surprise attack, there's another assassination, air raid, et cetera.0.82
03:08:30.000So they are principally concerned with imposing such a high cost on a future operation that it would be politically impossible for the United States to return.
03:08:42.000They control the Strait of Hormuz.0.70
03:08:44.000So that Washington, and by the way, everybody in the world knows if the U.S. and Israel get back up to their old tricks, it's going to be a repeat of this energy shock.0.86
03:08:55.000If the U.S. and Israel come back in Iran, try to take another crack at it, it's going to be a meltdown in Asia.0.84
03:09:02.000It's going to be a meltdown in Europe.0.93
03:09:04.000It's going to be a disaster for the Gulf.0.83
03:09:07.000And it's ultimately going to be a disaster for American consumers.1.00
03:09:10.000This is why Iran needs control over the Strait.0.97
03:09:13.000They needed to deter a future attack.0.97
03:09:16.000And the same goes for their nuclear program.0.55
03:09:18.000Ultimately, the reason they have fought and sacrificed so much to maintain this nuclear threshold status is because that is their ultimate hedge against a U.S. or Israel attack.0.58
03:09:32.000What prevents even a nuclear strike by Israel or the United States against Iran?0.93
03:09:37.000It is the possibility that on some timeline, if we cannot invade, if we cannot destroy their stockpile that they have, Iran can make a nuke.0.94
03:09:48.000They have parity with us, and then they can annihilate Israel or the United States.0.90
03:09:53.000So they're never giving up that either because that is also part of their deterrent capability.
03:09:58.000So we are asking them to do something.
03:10:02.000Give up their nukes, give up the Strait, that basically guarantees they will be vulnerable to a future attack, which most likely will be another attempt at regime change.0.60
03:10:12.000That is why they're never going to do it.0.88
03:10:15.000By the same token, the United States can never accept anything less than total zero enrichment and getting the Strait back because we ultimately seek regime change in Iran.
03:10:28.000We ultimately are pursuing a policy of nonproliferation and freedom of navigation in the seas.0.84
03:10:33.000It sets a terrible precedent on both issues if we throw everything we have at Iran and they're able to effectively change the international order, which is that middle powers, revisionist powers, can get nukes now and they can just take control of vital waterways now.0.92
03:11:43.000So, what they floated this weekend is they said, well, Iran will have an environmental protection fee that they charge every ship that goes through the strait.
03:11:53.000And what that sounds like to me is a technicality.
03:11:56.000They're going to make money off of it because they have jurisdiction over it.
03:12:00.000We're going to call it something else so we can pretend it isn't what it really is.
03:12:05.000And then, as far as the highly enriched uranium is concerned, previously we had been demanding that they give all of it over to us.
03:12:29.000This is the first major concession from Washington.
03:12:32.000Trump said, well, we can have the IAEA, a supranational third party organization, come in and they can supervise the dilution of the uranium.
03:12:45.000And so Iran's going to give it up, but instead of having Iranians fork it over and load it onto a U.S. cargo plane, which would be humiliating, we're going to have a third party group, which Iran has cooperated with in the past, and they will oversee Iran diluting the uranium, which they will then keep and probably use for peaceful purposes at Bushir or store somewhere else.
03:13:08.000And so these are some of these creative solutions that are being proffered that might bridge the gap, because at this point, I think that Iran wants an end to hostilities.0.57
03:13:30.000So much of the discussion about the United States and Iran, I feel like up until this point, ignores the wild card, which I don't even think that's the wild card.
03:13:39.000It's actually the engine of the entire thing, it's the nucleus, it's the center, it's determinative of this whole timeline.
03:13:56.000Well, we are at war with Iran because Israel bombed them last year.
03:14:00.000And Israel bombed them last year because they're in a war with Hamas and Hezbollah and Assad and the Popular Mobilization Force and the Houthi rebels.
03:14:10.000Because this is part of a multi year, multi front campaign to decapitate the Iranian regime.
03:14:17.000And Israel's been pursuing it for three years.
03:14:21.000Gradually roped us in to fighting this battle with them by fighting in Yemen, by shooting down Iran's missiles, by finishing the job for them with Midnight Hammer against Iran's nuclear facilities last year, roping us into this once and for all regime change attack this year.0.88
03:14:41.000Israel has been the engine of all of it, and they've controlled the tempo and they've created the provocations.0.97
03:14:46.000They have been the catalyst and the trigger for all of it.0.96
03:14:50.000And so, even if the United States and Iran are able to find a creative solution to some of these problems, And they're able to bridge the gap and they're able to make concessions.0.64
03:17:13.000When Iran told the world that a peace in Lebanon was the only thing that would compel them to open up the Strait of Hormuz, Israel launched their deadliest attack on Lebanon up until that point in the war.
03:17:30.000What purpose does that serve other than directly and specifically to undermine a deal?
03:17:36.000And sabotage a deal to prevent future diplomacy.
03:17:40.000Not only did that sour the ceasefire and Iran immediately closed the strait and said the deal is off, but it also poisons future diplomacy because what it communicates is that Washington has no influence over Israel, which they don't.
03:17:55.000And if that's the case, then Iran cannot trust the United States.
03:18:00.000And there's no rapport and there's no trust.
03:18:02.000And therefore, there could be no future deal.
03:18:05.000So they sabotaged the first ceasefire.
03:18:07.000And what that did is it made future ceasefires very difficult.
03:19:12.000Again, it says Prime Minister Netanyahu on Monday signaled that his country's fight with the Iranian backed Lebanese militant group Hezbollah.
03:19:23.000Despite an American brokered ceasefire that took effect in April, Israel and Hezbollah have continued to clash with each side accusing the other of violating the truce.
03:19:32.000The fighting has recently escalated, exposing the limits of the fragile agreement.
03:19:37.000In Mr. Netanyahu's video statement on Monday night, he said the Israeli forces had in recent weeks killed more than 600 Hezbollah militants and indicated the military would intensify the pressure.
03:19:48.000On Sunday, he said that Mr. Trump had in a weekend phone call.
03:19:52.000Reaffirmed Israel's right to defend itself against threats on every front, including Lebanon.
03:19:59.000So, this is what we're talking about all the time.0.70
03:20:04.000And let's just say something very explicit, which is that if Israel did not exist, the U.S. and Iran would have already had a deal by now.
03:20:17.000They would have had a deal in 2003, they would have had a deal in 2009, they would have had a deal in 2015, they would have had a deal last year.0.69
03:20:27.000If Israel did not exist, the United States and Iran would not be at war and wouldn't have been at war for years, maybe for over a decade.0.82
03:20:37.000Israel is the sole single exclusive reason that diplomacy is impossible.0.92
03:20:44.000And the reason is because, as we've said before, it is Israel's interest that diplomacy does not succeed.0.51
03:20:53.000Israel does not want peace, they do not want a deal.0.52
03:20:57.000They do not want Iran to be a non-nuclear, prosperous state.
03:21:31.000And they have a sense of nationality, a sense of identity, which allows them to stick together.
03:21:37.000Their society is insular, not trusting of outsiders, meaning it's difficult to infiltrate and subvert.
03:21:47.000So it's not that Israel fears a nuclear Iran or an Iran armed with missiles or an Iran armed with drones or controlling the Strait or anything like that.
03:21:58.000What Israel will not tolerate is a powerful country in their neighborhood that exists as a rival.
03:22:09.000They will not tolerate the existence of a rival.
03:22:13.000Because there are millions of Shiite Muslims across the Middle East, in Syria, in Iraq, in Bahrain, in Saudi's Eastern Province, in the northwest coast of Yemen.
03:22:26.000If Iran is a stable, prosperous country, not only are they a hub of power and culture and finance and influence and military strength, but also they project power into other countries.
03:22:42.000They can influence the affairs in other states.
03:22:45.000In a word, they are a regional player.
03:23:17.000Because all of these countries were strong Arab dictatorships.0.92
03:23:22.000With a powerful bureaucracy, a powerful authoritarian state, a big military allied with one another, and Israel could not accept that they would have to contend with rival powers.0.94
03:23:38.000So their preference is to destabilize those countries.
03:23:42.000Their preference is to dismember those countries, turn them into statelets.0.95
03:23:47.000They want to break them apart, they want to degrade and weaken them so that they will be under the control of Israel.0.91
03:23:54.000Rather than exerting influence on the region or Israel itself.0.64
03:23:59.000So they have had Iran in their sights for decades and they want to destroy Iran.0.91
03:24:31.000We are threatened now by China and to a lesser extent Russia, and we're preoccupied with things in our own hemisphere.
03:24:39.000Ever since, let's say, 2014, when the Donbass War started and the Crimean annexation happened, the United States could have gone to Iran and said, Look, the Middle East is not even the most important theater of war for us anymore.0.64
03:24:55.000And we would have given Iran guarantees, sanctions relief, they would have given up their nuclear arsenal.0.58
03:25:01.000If they did not have to worry about Israel armed to the teeth with F 35s and nuclear missiles waiting to undermine and destroy their country.0.94
03:25:13.000And we could have had a deal with them.0.89
03:25:14.000They would have balanced with Saudi Arabia.
03:25:17.000They could have had collective security, economic interdependence with their neighbors, and it would not have even been a problem.
03:25:24.000And we could have solved it last year.
03:25:25.000We could have solved it this year.0.52
03:25:27.000But every single time we meet at the negotiating table with Iran, It is always Israel behind the scenes that is sabotaging the process, leaking the details of the discussions, trying to poison pill the deal by creating their own red lines about what they are willing to accept, creating provocations, antagonizing Iran, harassing them,0.58
03:25:52.000conducting operations inside their territory like cyber attacks, assassinations of civilian officials, industrial sabotage.0.54
03:26:03.000And so you cannot understand the current conflict or where it's going or the trajectory without understanding that we would not even be here if it wasn't for Israel.0.99
03:26:14.000So ask yourself where are we going?0.98
03:26:17.000We were not in a war with Iran a year and a half ago.
03:26:21.000And five years before that, we were in a deal with Iran.
03:26:24.000And five years before that, we had actually a working relationship with Iran on this deal.
03:26:35.000It was this concerted effort over the long term by Israel to poison this relationship so that after a period of 10, 15 years, our only option increasingly is war.0.89
03:26:48.000In 2015, 2013, we had a lot of options about how we wanted to go about this.0.80
03:26:54.000But every step down this path has narrowed the field of possibilities.
03:27:01.000And so after Trump ripped up the deal, We had fewer options.
03:27:04.000And after he killed Qasem Soleimani, we had even fewer options.
03:27:08.000And after Israel engaged in their industrial sabotage and assassinations in the early 2020s, fewer options after that.
03:27:17.000And after they assassinated seven IRGC commanders in Syria in 2024, and after they killed the leader of Hamas, Ismail Hania, in Tehran, fewer options after that.
03:27:28.000And fewer options after Midnight Hammer, and fewer options after this.0.63
03:27:32.000And it's all pointing in one direction, which is they want a full scale war.
03:27:37.000God only knows what that will look like if that's going to be a nuclear strike, a ground war, if we're going to arm the Kurds, or we're going to get the UAE and Qatar to invade an island or something like this, or I should say UAE and Saudi to invade an island.0.89
03:27:55.000But it's all pointing there because Israel will poison every other possibility.0.87
03:28:02.000And so this is why I say, you know, people talk about how do we end the war in Iran, they talk about what the United States can do vis a vis Iran.0.94
03:28:10.000We have to talk about what we're going to do about Israel.0.51
03:28:13.000You want to get out of the conflict?0.77
03:28:15.000Honestly, you need to talk to Israel first.0.99
03:28:20.000And we need to forget about negotiating to Iran through Qatar and Pakistan.0.98
03:28:25.000We need to negotiate with Israel through American Jewry.0.79
03:28:30.000Trump needs to sit down with Netanyahu, brokered by, like, I don't know, Mark Levin and Bill Ackman, to tell Netanyahu look, the jig is up.0.94
03:28:42.000And this is just not going to work for the United States.0.94
03:28:45.000If you do not let us make a peace deal with Iran, we're going to cut you off with foreign aid or we're going to go after your gangsters in the United States.0.95
03:28:53.000We're going to crack down on Jewish power at home.1.00
03:28:59.000And I would bet you that if we, in actuality, or if we could give Iran confidence that we have Israel under control, a deal would become easy.0.93
03:29:13.000A deal would become a lot easier than it's been.0.95
03:29:14.000We could work out all the differences.
03:29:16.000We could have meetings on meetings in third countries and indirect negotiations, direct negotiations.
03:30:16.000The next day, he vows to intensify the fighting.
03:30:19.000He brags about how many Hezbollah militants he's killed.0.72
03:30:24.000That's what they did on April 9th.0.90
03:30:27.000Last year, when Netanyahu visited the White House, when Trump announced there was a 60 day window for Iran to negotiate a nuclear deal, the next day Netanyahu went on television and said, The only deal we will accept is if we blow up Iran's nuclear program with bombs.0.75
03:30:46.000So, how are you going to make a deal when you're saying things like that and Iran knows we can't rein them in?0.71
03:30:51.000Because that's exactly what they did on June 13th they attacked Iran's nuclear program with bombs.0.89
03:31:31.000It has since been revealed in the first year of Biden's presidency that the first thing he did was send feelers out to Tehran to try to bring the Iran nuclear deal back.
03:31:42.000That is one of the first things he did as president.
03:32:36.000Two, they gave Israel $12 billion additional military aid.
03:32:42.000Three, you had Mike Waltz, our national security advisor, who collates all the military intelligence and Pentagon intelligence to give to the president as military options.
03:32:55.000He was working for Netanyahu, talking to him on an encrypted Israeli messaging app the entire time.
03:33:01.000That's why they bumped him as UN ambassador from the National Security Council.
03:33:07.000They censored all the content on TikTok because Trump secured the sale of the U.S. business of TikTok to Netanyahu's best friend, Larry Ellison, who now owns all the data and the algorithm for the U.S. based TikTok platform.
03:34:08.000I don't know that I would be okay with this, but okay.
03:34:12.000But it would even be a different story if we were getting 5 million deportations a year.
03:34:19.000I'm not saying I would go for that at all.
03:34:22.000But I'm saying it might even be a different story if at least there was a trade off.
03:34:27.000Like, okay, they put Hassan Piker in jail and they deported a million and a half people this year and they built the border wall and they fixed the elections so they're not mail in ballots anymore.
03:34:40.000If we had something to show for it, meaningful reform, you might say, well, in the grand scheme of things, if this is the last time we do this, maybe it's worth it.
03:34:49.000I don't know that I'd go for that, but I'm saying maybe that would be a different story.
03:35:23.000And this is the problem with these Jews they just get greedy.1.00
03:35:30.000I don't think that anybody would even necessarily have an issue.1.00
03:35:34.000It wouldn't have gotten to this point if they were a humble interest group among others.
03:35:39.000And again, not defending that, thinking out loud here.
03:35:44.000I don't know that there would be this mass red pilling and antipathy towards Israel and Jews if they were just a quiet little interest group among other interest groups and they won some and they lost some.0.97
03:35:57.000But think about how fucking egregious it is.0.94
03:38:07.000Maybe you're not going to run in a crowded primary and get some no name ID guy with no money to get 40% of the vote in some random district in Idaho, but you can flip 2% to the Democrats and then there's one less Republican.
03:38:43.000Hopefully in 2028, things will have gotten bad enough that there will be an opportunity for the dark triad, dark horse, dark MAGA, dark America.
03:49:23.000In May, June 2019, you were getting 170,000 apprehensions per month.
03:49:30.000This is two years into the administration, very late in the game.
03:49:33.000And I remember saying, look, like I'm off the Trump train.
03:49:36.000Trump was like negotiating with Mexico, trying to figure out this.0.72
03:49:39.000This regime of executive orders to keep them on the other side of the wall and catch and release, try to separate the unaccompanied minors.0.94
03:52:48.000He doesn't have any real beliefs, he doesn't have any real ideas.
03:52:52.000All he does is basically take the temperature, he detects which way the wind is blowing, and then he desperately tries to say the hot take of the day.
03:53:02.000Not even the most popular thing, but the thing that seems unpopular, but is actually really popular.
03:53:09.000Like, I don't believe there should be a two party system.
03:53:12.000Well, forgive me, I know it's not politically correct, but I think both sides of the problem, you know what I'm saying?
03:53:18.000It's like one of those fake, edgy things that everyone really agrees with.
03:53:23.000And that's all Sneeko, that, you know, his political commentary consists in trying to say the wokest thing.0.94
03:53:31.000And by woke, I don't mean liberal, I mean the most, like, above it all, the most, I'm different, I'm a self righteous douchebag.
03:54:03.000You say whatever you think a center left hipster will praise you for.
03:54:08.000Oh, that's actually a really good take.
03:54:11.000Like, I don't think I've ever heard Sneeko say, you know, I know it's not popular, but this is what I really believe in, piss everybody off.
03:57:01.000When we had this like movement of streamers during the cozy era, all it was was just endless drama, petty drama, petty beef with everybody, babysitting all these people.
03:57:14.000It reminds me of like when we had that cozy platform, it was every day it was World War III between politically provoked and Tenryo and this one and that one.
03:57:27.000Crash outs and intrigue and petty drama.
03:57:30.000And I'm like, none of these people are even an asset.
03:57:32.000Every one of these people is a liability.
03:57:35.000And the second that I moved on from them, everything got better.
04:10:18.000You said you found out about Dan Bilzerian being 12% Jewish a few weeks ago, but then you tweeted today that you were talking about him in that Tucker clip from months ago.0.72
04:13:08.000Because the Democrats convened a subcommittee to subpoena me and compel deposition.
04:13:14.000So for years, people were saying, oh, you're a Fed, you're a Fed, January 6th, blah, blah, blah.
04:13:19.000I could not even talk about it fully in public because.
04:13:23.000If I did, it could have brought down attention and problems from the DOJ.
04:13:30.000So I remember when all that stuff started coming out, when people started attacking me for that in like 2023, it's like I'm fighting with two arms tied behind my back.
04:13:43.000I had very good lawyers, and that's why I really didn't talk about it too much until only maybe about a year ago, two years ago, right around the time Trump won the election.
04:13:54.000Because up until that point, I really didn't want to get into it because the Democrats are being very aggressive.
04:21:42.000If you're going to convert, you got to convert for real.
04:21:45.000I know, dude, I can't even, it's going to be too specific.0.55
04:21:49.000Jews have this tendency of converting to Catholicism, but simultaneously, they also believe in reincarnation, among other things.
04:22:02.000Like, it has been said that there are Jews out there who will say they convert to Catholicism, but don't really mean it, don't really believe it.0.90
04:22:58.000He went on his generational run, took over the world, got nuked from orbit, survived, and now he's flying away on his private jet, just living the good life, getting ready for a comeback.
04:23:10.000Like, honestly, I am so vindicated on Tate because I was always pro Tate.
04:23:17.000Well, we had a feud for a little while, I liked him, and then we had a little feud because.
04:23:21.000They didn't like me very much, whatever.
04:23:24.000Point is, I always like was a big fan, big supporter, and people said, oh, that's third worldism.0.98
