There is a young female journalist, conservative journalist by the name of Laura Loomer. She is a self-appointed enforcer who inspires fear and vexation across Washington. What s behind her crusade? Not a bad photo.
00:23:20.000You may have seen over the last two weeks, President Trump has been very outspoken about the continued Islamic persecution of Christians in Nigeria.
00:23:32.000Now, this is something that has been going on for a very long time.
00:23:36.000The killing of religious minorities by Muslims all throughout Africa and the Middle East, right?
00:23:42.000We know that Christians are the most persecuted people on the entire planet.
00:23:48.000And it's not Jews that are going around persecuting these people.
00:23:54.000It's always Muslims that are responsible for the massacre of Christians and really all religious minorities when we get down to it.
00:24:03.000We saw yesterday's episode of Loomer Unleashed.
00:24:05.000I walked you through the religious persecution that's currently taking place in Syria under Jolani and his forces.
00:24:12.000Jelani, who, of course, was just at the White House with President Trump, but he's massacring Druze and Christians and Alawites and Kurds.
00:24:19.000It's always Islamists that are carrying out these acts of terrorism against religious minorities.
00:24:27.000Well, President Trump posted a very lengthy truth social post about his absolute outrage and horror upon learning about the continued persecution of Christians in Nigeria.
00:24:40.000And he pledged that if the Islamists in Nigeria did not stop massacring innocent Christians, he was going to order the Department of War to put troops on the ground in Nigeria to kill and go to war with all of the Islamic jihadists and groups like Boca Haram and ISIS that are carrying out the killing of these innocent Christians.
00:25:03.000You can see here, this is the post that President Trump posted.
00:25:07.000If the Nigerian government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the USA will immediately stop all aid and assistance to Nigeria.
00:25:16.000And may very well go into that now disgraced country, guns ablazing.
00:25:24.000To completely wipe out the Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities, I am hereby instructing our Department of War to prepare for possible action.
00:25:33.000If we attacked, it will be fast, vicious, and sweet, just like the terrorist thugs attacked our cherished Christians.
00:25:40.000Warning the Nigerian government better move fast.
00:25:46.000Well, we all know that the persecution of Christians is very real.
00:25:53.000But what we've seen lately, it's very bizarre.
00:25:56.000Something I've been talking about a lot on this show.
00:26:00.000You have constant obsession, it seems like, with Israel and the Jews by not just the radical left, but also the woke right.
00:26:09.000And I've been extremely critical of Tucker Carlson, who I call Tucker Catarlson.
00:26:13.000And I've been calling him Tucker Cottarlson.
00:26:15.000I mean, I'm the person who came up with that name.
00:27:09.000Because we have the videos, we have the photographic evidence, we have all the documentation and the news reports that prove that Christians are being massacred by Muslims all throughout the Middle East and all throughout Nigeria and other places in Africa as well.
00:27:25.000But Tucker Carlson actually did an episode on his podcast this last week in which he said that it's all made up.
00:27:35.000There's no such thing as Christians being persecuted in Nigeria.
00:27:39.000Ted Cruz is obsessed with it, he says.
00:27:41.000He says that they're just using it as a political talking point and that they just want to have propaganda to use against Muslims and that Christians are not being genocided by Muslims in Nigeria.
00:27:57.000Not only did Tucker Carlson bring on a guest to downplay the persecution of Christians in Nigeria, but we'll get into this later as well because my guest tonight is actually an expert, an actual expert, unlike Tucker's expert, right?
00:28:13.000Tucker loves to say that everybody who he brings on is a so-called expert.
00:28:17.000Turns out the guy who he brought on named Robert Amsterdam is actually a lobbyist.
00:28:22.000We're going to get into that tonight and show you the hypocrisy of the guests that Tucker Carlson chose to have on to talk about the persecution of Christians in Nigeria.
00:28:32.000But let's go ahead and play this clip, clip number 30, the full clip of Robert Amsterdam downplaying the slaughter of Christians in Nigeria, because you really have to see the clip.
00:28:42.000It's a 10-minute long clip, but I have to play the clip for you to set the scene for the controversy that has since erupted after this interview took place.
00:28:55.000And you have to watch this clip in its entirety to understand just how depraved it is that Tucker Carlson invited this individual on, specifically a lobbyist, right?
00:29:08.000Because after I play the clip for you, we're going to show you, I'm going to show you a report that came out that documents the lobby clients of Robert Amsterdam.
00:29:16.000And you're going to see why not only is it disingenuous and dishonest of Tucker Carlson to say that Christians are not being persecuted, mind you, this is a guy who invited a nun, a nun with ties to Hamas, to come on his show several months ago to falsely accuse Israel of killing Christians.
00:29:37.000He says that Israel is carrying out a massacre of Christians.
00:29:40.000I mean, of all the countries in the Middle East to talk about persecuting Christians, he's going to talk about Israel of all countries, like the only country in the Middle East where Christians can actually live peacefully and not be persecuted for their religion.
00:29:55.000So, knowing what we know about Tucker Carlson lying about Israel massacring Christians, take a listen to this interview he did with Robert Amsterdam.
00:30:07.000And then we're going to get into the absurdity of Robert Amsterdam being a so-called voice for persecuted Christians.
00:30:15.000He likes to call himself like a human rights, a human rights representative.
00:30:19.000That's how he bills himself when he does these interviews.
00:30:22.000Very bizarre, very bizarre guy, basically a lobbyist for dictators.
00:30:29.000But just take a listen to this clip and watch Tucker Carlson lie and downplay the Islamic persecution of Christians in Nigeria.
00:30:39.000And then ask yourself why a guy who claims to be so concerned about saving Western civilization and says that Christian Zionists are the worst people in the world.
00:30:52.000Ask yourself why such a so-called devout Christian like Tucker Carlson would downplay the acts of Islamic terrorism that are being carried out against innocent Christians in Nigeria.
00:31:07.000In the United States, we have a president, by the way, I think probably the most effective president in foreign affairs that we may have had since Nixon.
00:31:19.000I think he's incredibly consequential in foreign affairs on domestic policy, on legal issues.
00:31:27.000I think the rule of law is in trouble, but I won't go into that.
00:31:32.000But foreign policy-wise, he's moved incredible mountains.
00:31:38.000And I'm not just talking about the recent activities with the hostages.
00:31:42.000I'm talking about, as a lawyer engaged in Africa, the man has done more to open up our eyes to the opportunities in parts of Africa.
00:31:56.000He's made it much less risky to go into Africa.
00:32:01.000As an American in Africa over the last decades, you don't know how frustrating it is when the Department of Justice opens up investigations the minute American companies want to venture into Africa or into Latin America.
00:32:35.000Speaking of African countries, all of a sudden, I'm not defending Nigeria.
00:32:41.000I don't have strong views in Nigeria, but Nigeria has become famous in the last week as a country in which there's Christian persecution going on.
00:32:48.000I think that's been, there's been a lot of conflict between Muslims and Christians in Nigeria for, you know, my whole life.
00:32:56.000But all of a sudden, it's a kind of centerpiece of the conversation.
00:35:27.000How is Tucker Carlson considered a legitimate journalist when he's not disclosing the fact that his guest is a lobbyist and he's presenting him as some kind of like objective expert on the persecution of Christians around the world?
00:35:46.000Shouldn't you be disclosing whether or not your client is a lobbyist and they're getting paid for their work?
00:35:51.000We're going to get into who's paying Robert Amsterdam for his work, but let's continue with this interview, just so that we can fact-check it in real time and continue identifying these absurd lies made by not just Tucker Katarlson, but his idiotic guest, Robert Amsterdam.
00:39:18.000I'm privileged to be counsel to the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
00:39:24.000We, you know, my firm has spent many years, we've just, we're still trying to defend the opposition leader of Tanzania, Tundu Lisu, who's been illegally jailed.
00:39:35.000A thousand are dead protesting completely bogus, fraudulent elections.
00:39:40.000And to the credit of the United States, at least in the Senate, they've spoken out.
00:39:45.000Foreign Relations Committee has spoken out.
00:39:47.000We need our administration, and we certainly need the EU to stop funding this grotesque government in Tanzania.
00:39:55.000But we have to stop looking at Africa as a security concern alone.
00:40:01.000And we have to recognize that between their minerals and between the entrepreneurial spirit, Nigerian lawyers are as good or better than American lawyers or British lawyers.
00:40:13.000I mean, there is an incredible infrastructure of intelligence in Nigeria that we don't know anything about.
00:40:20.000All we try to do is sanction and condemn.
00:40:24.000It is a horrible, horrible part of our policy that we sanction the hell out of everybody.
00:40:32.000We are responsible for the consolidation of power in Moscow under Putin.
00:40:39.000If we were not sanctioning the hell out of all these people who had moved to Europe, who knows whether Putin would still be in power?
00:40:50.000It's so counterproductive that it's got to be part of some sort of larger strategy that I'm too dumb to understand because it's achieving the opposite of the attended result.
00:41:00.000And let me tell you, I'm working in Iraq against Iranian interests.
00:41:07.000We have a woman, Sarah Salim, who is an American citizen, bravely, incredibly bravely, defending her interests and those of the Kurdish in the north.
00:41:20.000And you know, the Kurds are going to have an election soon.
00:41:22.000She's defending their interests against a wildly corrupt chief justice named Zaydan, who is actually an instrument of Iran.
00:41:34.000And there have been a complete reversal of her fortunes before the courts because of corruption against a group called the Hanna Brothers.
00:41:43.000And when we've gone to the U.S. embassy for help, this is an American citizen who, by the way, was kidnapped and tortured 10 years ago and has been fighting for her redemption and for compensation against al-Maliki and Zaydan and others.
00:42:01.000Our embassy pledges neutrality, does not help this brave American citizen.
00:42:09.000Listen, we cannot understand it, especially in a moment where the future of Iraq, which is massively important to the United States, is at risk.
00:42:20.000I mean, there's an election coming up in Iraq as well, and the oil wealth of that country is almost unimaginable.
00:42:27.000And the issue is whether the Iraqi militia will disarm, whether, in fact, the government that we not only have spent billions to support, but we lost almost 5,000 lives, whether that government will be a government somewhat free of the corruption and control of Iran.
00:42:52.000There's a few people in Congress who have spoken out and blessed them for doing that, but very few people have paid Iraq any thought at all.
00:43:02.000And yet we overconcentrate on Ukraine to the exclusion of almost everything else.
00:43:15.000So I just want to know, before we get into dissecting Robert Amsterdam's lies about Christians not being targeted in Nigeria, why are we supposed to give a shit about the individual clients of some lobbyist who is representing people in Africa and the Middle East?
00:43:36.000Like, where does Tucker Carlson find these guests?
00:43:38.000Like, does anybody ask themselves, hmm, this is kind of strange.
00:43:45.000Like, how did Tucker Carlson get put in touch with this lobbyist and this PR agent who is probably paid millions of dollars a year by foreign governments to represent them?
00:43:58.000Yeah, Tucker Carlson is supposed to be the America first guy that wants to tell us that if we believe Israel has a right to exist, we're Israel first.
00:44:07.000And Donald Trump isn't America first enough, according to Tucker Carlson.
00:44:12.000But then he's going to have a guy on his show who's not even talking about anything related to the United States of America.
00:44:18.000He just wants to talk about all these foreign countries and his foreign clients that, you know, of course he's pretending like he's just representing these people.
00:44:25.000He's not actually disclosing to the people how much money he's making representing all these foreign governments.
00:44:47.000He says, I don't work for anybody in Nigeria, mind you.
00:44:50.000I'm just here to talk to you about all this stuff and try to convince you that Nigeria is so amazing and they're not actually persecuting people because the Muslim president of Nigeria happens to be married to a Christian woman.
00:45:04.000So don't don't pay attention to any of those videos of ISIS and Boko Haram chasing women through the fields of Nigeria and massacring them and their children.
00:45:16.000You know, it must be AI because, well, Ted Cruz certainly doesn't know what he's talking about.
00:45:21.000Well, I know more than a United States senator that is getting classified intel briefings because, well, yeah, I'm a lobbyist and I'm a lobbyist.
00:45:29.000And so, of course, I know more than a senator who's actually receiving intelligence.
00:45:34.000I mean, does Tucker Carlson think that the American people are stupid?
00:46:48.000And how could Tucker Carlson have somebody on and actually gaslight us into thinking that Christians are not really being persecuted in Nigeria?
00:46:55.000Well, there's a guy named Joel Mowbray.
00:47:06.000Tucker Carlson's expert on Nigerian Christians worked for a top defender of the Fulani Islamist militias killing Christians.
00:47:15.000So Tucker did not begin this interview by saying, for the sake of journalistic integrity, we're going to be talking about the persecution of Christians today, which I'm about to tell you isn't really real.
00:47:27.000And my guest is actually paid to convince people that the persecution of Christians in Nigeria isn't really real.
00:47:34.000But instead, he doesn't disclose the fact that this guy is actually like a paid lobbyist or a top defender of individuals who, you know, are tied to these Islamic killings.
00:47:45.000Instead, he tries to come across as like an objective arbiter of the truth, an expert in Nigeria, an expert in Africa, an expert in the persecution of Christians.
00:47:58.000The Tucker Carlson guest on Friday who slammed Ted Cruz and declared that there's no campaign of targeted killings of Christians in Nigeria is a lobbyist and PR flak named Robert Amsterdam.
00:48:09.000He has for years represented a leading Nigerian official closely associated with Fulani Islamists, including the very militias that have been slaughtering Christians in Nigeria.
00:49:18.000Yeah, that's why his name popped up in Farah, right?
00:49:21.000That's why his name popped up in Farah.
00:49:23.000Robert Amsterdam likes to say that he is a defender of Christians.
00:49:27.000That's how Tucker Carlson presented him.
00:49:30.000Well, who did Robert Amsterdam represent?
00:49:33.000He represented Nasir El Rufai, who from 2015 to 2023 was the governor of the northern Nigeria state of Kaduna.
00:49:44.000He's known as the butcher of Kaduna, home to the bulk of Fulani Islamist militias that have slaughtered thousands of Christians.
00:49:52.000So this guy who Tucker Carlson said is a defender of Christians around the world literally defended the guy responsible for the massacre of Christians in Nigeria.
00:50:10.000But Tucker Carlson doesn't want you to know that, of course, because he thinks that, you know, he thinks that nobody's going to actually do their own research because the only person who's allowed to actually ask questions is Tucker Carlson.
00:50:21.000Because if you ask questions or if you criticize Tucker Carlson, you're just like a globalist.
00:50:49.000While serving as Kaduna's governor, Al-Rufai directed substantial payments to those very same Fulani Islamists by his own admission.
00:50:57.000And he ordered numerous crackdowns that reportedly resulted in the murders of more than 100 Christians.
00:51:02.000Mind you, this is the guy that Robert Amsterdam advocates for, all while saying that he is supposedly some kind of defender of Christians, right?
00:51:14.000Al-Rufai has also contributed to the ongoing vilification and the demonization of Nigeria's Christians, such as claiming in 2014 that Christians sponsored Boca Haram with the motive of tarnishing the name of Islam.
00:51:27.000Yeah, because Christians are really going to sponsor an Islamic terrorist organization, Boca Haram, basically like ISIS, to go around and kill their own family members because they want to tarnish Islam.
00:51:38.000Because that really makes a lot of sense, right?
00:51:43.000In 2012, three years before becoming governor of Kaduna, Al-Rufai tweeted a veiled threat to Nigerian soldiers attempting to thwart the murderous campaigns carried out by the Fulani Islamists.
00:51:54.000He said, quote, any one soldier, any one soldier or not that kills the Fulani takes a loan repayable one day, no matter how long it takes.
00:52:04.000Three years later, Al-Rufai touted his endorsement from Frulani Islamist. a broader Muslim ethnic group in Nigeria whose leaders have supported the implementation of Sharia law when he successfully ran for governor.
00:52:20.000He also reinstated the religious preaching edict, which meant that all Christian pastors required prior approval from the Kaduna government before each sermon.
00:52:30.000Otherwise, they will be liable to pay a fine and they might even be imprisoned.
00:52:38.000Does this sound like a guy who defends Christians to you, a guy who represents and defends somebody who is trying to impose like a jizya tax?
00:52:46.000It's essentially a jizya tax under Sharia law on non-Muslims, on Christians.
00:52:51.000Does that sound like such an amazing defender of Christians?
00:52:56.000Like Tucker Carlson wants you to think Robert Amsterdam is.
00:52:58.000Let's continue the rest of this tweet and then I'm going to bring on my guest.
00:53:06.000Both Tucker and Amsterdam cited the latter's work on behalf of various Nigerian entities as the basis for his expertise to refute claims by President Trump and to Cruz.
00:53:17.000He wants to counter signal President Trump and Senator Ted Cruz.
00:53:21.000Okay, that's why Tucker Carlson had this guy on because he's trying to counter President Trump's claim with evidence, of course.
00:53:30.000It's not like Tucker Carlson is actually showing any evidence or receipts that this isn't happening because he doesn't want Donald Trump to send troops to Nigeria to massacre and kill Islamic terrorists.
00:53:43.000So essentially, what Tucker Carlson is doing is he's inviting a lobbyist and a PR representative for an Islamist butcher of Christians to come on his show to advocate against military intervention in Nigeria to protect Islamic terrorists so that they can continue murdering Christians.
00:54:11.000Although he didn't disclose in the Tucker Carlson interview his work for a leading defender of the Fulani Islamists, Amsterdam stated in 2018 on his website that he represented Al-Rufai, the governor of Udana state.
00:54:25.000So why didn't he want to disclose this during his interview?
00:54:30.000How come he didn't want to use this as an example?
00:54:32.000Because anybody with a brain can see, doesn't take a rocket scientist or a political strategist to see that there's a conflict of interest here.
00:54:42.000You can't say that you're a defender of Christians in Nigeria and then simultaneously be the lobbyist for the butcher of Kadana who wanted to impose Sharia law and imprison Christians for notifying the Islamic rulers of the land that they were going to have a sermon.
00:56:20.000And then you can see here, Al-Rufay, this is a screenshot that shows him accusing the Christians of trying to tarnish the reputation of Islam by accusing Boko Haram of massacring Christians.
00:56:43.000even though there's tons of evidence of Boko Haram and ISIS killing Christians in Nigeria.
00:56:54.000Well, unlike Tucker Carlson, I actually have a real expert tonight joining me on Lumer Unleashed, an expert in the persecution of Christians in Nigeria.
00:57:09.000He's not getting paid millions of dollars from foreign Islamic governments to lie like Tucker Carlson's guests about the persecution of Christians.
00:57:19.000And so I wanted to bring on a real expert since Tucker Carlson is apparently only in the business of bringing on lobbyists and PR agents to do spin for Muslim killers and Islamic dictatorships.
00:57:33.000He loves going to Qatar and Saudi Arabia and talking to the president of Iran.
00:57:38.000And now he has people on whitewashing the Islamic genocide of Christians in Nigeria.
00:57:44.000You can't really trust any of these so-called experts that Tucker Carlson has on.
00:57:48.000But I have a real expert who brought real video evidence that he filmed tonight to prove to you that Christians actually are, in fact, being persecuted in Nigeria.
00:58:00.000So joining me now to discuss the persecution of Christians in Nigeria and Tucker Carlson's spin campaign to protect genocidal Muslims who are murdering and massacring Christians all around Africa and the Middle East is Mike Arnold, the founder of Africa Arise.
00:58:19.000Mike, thanks so much for joining me tonight on Loomer Unleash.
00:58:44.000I'm just a simple missionary from the hill country of Texas, and I'm an advocate for my friends in Nigeria who are living in hellish conditions under this brutal regime.
00:58:55.000Why don't you start by telling me about your organization?
00:58:59.000You're the founder of a group called Africa Arise.
00:59:05.000You were a mayor in Texas, so you were involved in politics, but now you've since given that up and you do missionary work.
00:59:12.000You do missionary work and you go to Africa, particularly Nigeria.
00:59:16.000I see you have traveled to Nigeria 16 times since 2010 and seven since 2019 to investigate and document the genocide of Christians in Nigeria.
00:59:28.000So what does your group, Africa Arise, do?
00:59:33.000We fundamentally are a humanitarian organization, and our main emphasis today is we have schools in these concentration camps, for lack of a better term.
00:59:44.000They call them IDP or internally displaced person camps, but they're really concentration camps.
01:01:42.0003 million people, high-rises, glass buildings, paved roads.
01:01:46.000In the middle of it, this lack of a better term, this shithole, this sewage ditches, hand-built shanties, thousands of people just struggling to live day by day.
01:02:00.000And these were peaceful, productive, a lot of them professional people who were brutally driven from their homes, witnessed horrific massacre, lost loved ones, lost everything.
01:02:13.000All the churches burned, all their homes burned.
01:02:16.000Women and children sold into sex slavery, men hacked to death.
01:02:21.000But they escaped and made it 500 miles here to these camps in Abuja, and they're all over the country.
01:03:03.000I've been to Bocos where the Christmas massacre was.
01:03:06.000I was there a few months later and really gotten to see things firsthand and met a lot of people that are very amazing people that are eyewitnesses and survivors of genocide.
01:03:19.000Why do you call them concentration camps?
01:03:21.000I know that's a pretty loaded term and I know that some people are going to say, oh, is that hyperbole?
01:03:26.000Explain to the viewers why you call these camps in Nigeria where these Christians are living, why you're referring to them as concentration camps.
01:03:35.000Well, first of all, there's no escape.
01:04:30.000I'm very concerned to see these policy analysts and wonks saying, oh, we need this sanction and we need this restriction and we need to do this embargo.
01:04:41.000The people, the leaders there, they don't care.
01:04:56.000And we need to approach it accordingly.
01:05:01.000What do you think about President Trump's commitment to put troops on the ground in Nigeria if these Islamists don't stop their massacre of Nigerian Christians?
01:05:11.000Do you think that it's a good idea, or do you think that the United States should stay out of additional global conflicts?
01:05:21.000That's a tough one, but I believe that there's actually a clear and present danger to the United States and to the world that must be addressed.
01:05:30.000According to Michael Langley, the general of AFRICOM, the U.S. African Command, I understand he's recently retired, but he was the head of this back in May when he testified before Congress.
01:05:42.000And he declared very openly with all the evidence necessary that northern Nigeria is now the epicenter of global terrorism.
01:05:49.000You have ISIS that is relocated there.
01:05:52.000They're now I swap Islamic State West African Province.
01:05:57.000You have all these global terror organizations that have now made it their headquarters.
01:06:02.000They're sucking off the natural resources there.
01:06:05.000At this point, the estimate from their own government is about $9 billion a year of minerals is being looted from the grounds in the north and going to China.
01:06:13.000And at least 10% of it, again, according to their government, which is probably 10 times this, but at least 10% of it is going to fund terror and corruption.
01:06:21.000So it's at least $900 million a year that's going directly to these groups there.
01:06:26.000And the government, they're not stopping.
01:06:48.000Well, and what's interesting, what's really interesting, I'm not going to play the clip again because it was a 10-minute long clip.
01:06:53.000I know that you've already seen the interview as well because we were discussing this today when you and I were talking when I asked you to come on my show.
01:07:01.000But what do you take from Robert Amsterdam's claim that, oh, well, the government of Nigeria is actually run by Christians and Muslims?
01:07:10.000Well, we know that the president of Nigeria is a Muslim.
01:07:13.000And then he tries to say, well, of course, he's not actually allowing for the persecution of Christians because his wife is a Christian pastor.
01:07:23.000So, what do you say to those who are questioning how a president who is married to a supposedly a Christian woman who is also an ordained pastor?
01:07:36.000What do you say to the people who are kind of skeptical about why the government of Nigeria would allow then for Christians to be persecuted and killed by Islamists and turn a blind eye to it if the first lady of Nigeria is actually a Christian?
01:07:54.000Well, you know, you keep using that word, but I don't think it means what you think it means.
01:07:59.000The word Christian doesn't mean that you have a cross pendant.
01:08:06.000Because they love, because that seems like a pretty convenient story to have.
01:08:11.000Like, oh, yeah, you have this genocidal Muslim president who is, and it also just doesn't make any sense because if you are really a devout Muslim and you are in support of Sharia law, and we know that these Fulani Islamists are in support of Sharia law, you would never really be married to an actual devout Christian woman.
01:08:33.000But no, Tanubu, I call him a corruptocrat.
01:08:38.000In fact, if you look at his background, he had to pay, he was went to the University of Chicago, and he was a money launderer for drug kingpins.
01:09:26.000It was two separate extraction corporations set up by the British.
01:09:31.000And the way the British controlled it, like they did in all their empires, was indirect rule.
01:09:36.000In the north, you had this caliphate, the Sokoto Caliphate, established in the early 1800s, the largest pre-colonial empire established by jihad, radical Muslim jihad, established this caliphate.
01:12:47.000To think that sanctions are going to work there, to think that government's ever going to do anything about it, it's physically impossible for them to do something about it because they'd be fighting themselves.
01:13:11.000I want to go ahead and play this clip of President Trump saying that Christianity is facing an existential threat in Nigeria.
01:13:19.000And then I want to get into your advocacy because a lot of people are probably not aware that you're one of the key figures who really helped make this topic mainstream, bringing it to the attention to the White House and also getting lawmakers to now speak out about the persecution of Christians in Nigeria.
01:13:37.000So let's go ahead and watch this clip.
01:13:40.000Christianity is facing an existential threat in Nigeria.
01:13:45.000Thousands and thousands of Christians are being killed.
01:13:48.000Radical Islamists are responsible for this mass slaughter.
01:13:52.000I am hereby making Nigeria a country of particular concern.
01:14:12.000I am asking Congressman Riley Moore, together with Chairman Tom Cole and the House Appropriations Committee, to immediately look into this matter and to report back to me.
01:17:11.000They've already put word out that when the world looks away, they assume the world's going to look away, that they're going to pursue anybody who used the word genocide.
01:17:20.000They're going to pursue them for treason.
01:17:21.000So they're already saying they're going to kill anybody that speaks up.
01:18:15.000They took me straight into a photo op with the guy that presented as the chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria, which ends up it wasn't true.
01:18:53.000Well, some of the advice I got was don't be in a compromising picture.
01:18:56.000So we stood up for a photo op and I did this in the camera so they couldn't use my picture.
01:19:01.000And then they ran me through no break straight from the airport, not even a bathroom break into the live TV set for their top-rated primetime program, which is in the same hotel complex as the countdown was happening, and tried to trip me up on there to say there's no genocide.
01:19:18.000I was able to punt to get, and there was a press conference the next day.
01:21:35.000They originally wanted me to stay another week, but I arranged it so I could flee immediately and get to safety before the bomb went off, before they figured out what happened.
01:21:42.000And what did they say to you after you got done with your TV interview?
01:22:06.000What do you think is going to happen to you?
01:22:07.000I plan to, but the results, within 72 hours, the global narrative flipped from 80% denial to 70% affirmation in 72 hours after that.
01:22:17.000And observers on both sides of the Atlantic say that that's directly what prompted Trump to take action when and how he did, was that narrative flip that happened literally overnight.
01:22:28.000Yeah, and we actually saw the press secretary, Caroline Levitt, also talk about this during her White House press briefing because people were asking about it.
01:22:35.000Let's go ahead and play clip number 40.
01:22:38.000If the Nigerian government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the United States will immediately stop all aid and assistance to Nigeria and may take action to wipe out the Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities, especially against innocent women and children.
01:23:01.000It must be pretty cool knowing that you've been working on this for many years now.
01:23:06.000I mean, 2010 is when you first went to Nigeria.
01:23:09.000So you've been working on this for over 15 years now.
01:23:14.000And now you're finally just starting to see the Fruits of your labor, yeah.
01:23:19.000And again, when I first started going, Nigeria was the only nation on earth where radical Islam was being pushed back.
01:23:24.000And we haven't even gotten to that how Obama actually unleashed all of this on purpose.
01:23:29.000We can get into that if you want, and I've got the goods.
01:23:31.000I mean, his hands in the cookie jar there.
01:23:33.000Um, but so it's really 2019 when I became aware of what was happening.
01:23:38.000So it's six years that I've been, and a lot of people have a lot of people a lot smarter and better than me, have been screaming about this for a long time.
01:23:48.000Which, to be honest, the greatest betrayal of all from Tucker Carlson.
01:23:52.000And God, you know, I always thought the world of that guy, but it's like finding out your uncle is a serial killer.
01:24:00.000I mean, it's like it just doesn't reconcile watching this stuff come out of his mouth.
01:24:05.000But he actually said that the reason this is an issue now is because they're just trying to detect the flip detention from Ukraine.
01:24:14.000So, yeah, for six years, I've been busting my ass and traveling when it was level four, do not travel warnings, risking my life, and other people have been doing the same, trying to raise awareness of this just so we could deflect attention away from Ukraine.
01:24:29.000That's that's that's the hardest Ukraine war.
01:24:32.000Obviously, that's not even true because you know this has been going on long before the war between Russia and Ukraine.
01:24:39.000Uh, for those who don't know what you're talking about, we have the clip here, so let's go ahead and play flip number 34, another one of Tucker Katarlson's lies.
01:24:48.000Cruz specifically, and but he's all of a sudden, kind of out of nowhere, deeply concerned about the plate of Christians in Nigeria, which I want to restate.
01:24:56.000I may be a totally valid concern, I don't know.
01:25:03.000All of a sudden, everybody's concerned about people who clearly have no track record of being interested in Christians at all, including Ted Cruz.
01:25:14.000Well, in fact, what's interesting is they're calling it a genocide, and a genocide under international legal terms requires an intent.
01:25:24.000And certainly, it's a very strange scenario where you have a government richly populated by Christians and accusing them of some form of genocide.
01:25:33.000The president whose wife is a Christian pastor.
01:25:36.000But I mean, one thing I do understand is coordinated propaganda, and this is coordinated propaganda.
01:25:46.000You know, I can tell you that the Nigerians have no idea where this is coming from.
01:25:53.000They've wanted Washington's attention since the beginning of the Trump administration.
01:25:59.000There are 230 million Nigerians who long for a strong relationship with the United States, who are being cultivated by Russia, cultivated by China, cultivated by India, but want to work with America.
01:26:17.000And we ignore them until we condemn them for a genocide that is absolutely not a genocide.
01:26:25.000Yes, I support President Trump's interest in helping out Christians everywhere.
01:26:32.000But we condemn these Nigerians for a genocide because it's so bad to condemn an entire country for a so-called genocide.
01:26:41.000First of all, isn't that exactly what Tucker Carlson has been doing to every single Israeli and every single Jew over the war between Israel and Hamas?
01:26:50.000So they want to say, oh, well, you have to have intent.
01:26:53.000You have to have intent for it to be a genocide.
01:26:55.000Well, what's the intent for Israel and Hamas?
01:26:59.000That's not a genocide, but they call it a genocide.
01:27:55.000And so it's not like a Muslim-majority country where you have complete persecution of all non-Muslim religious minorities.
01:28:03.000So what would be the intent of Israel to carry out a so-called genocide, right?
01:28:09.000Well, obviously they don't hate Muslims.
01:28:11.000Obviously, they don't just hate Palestinian people because they have Palestinians and they have Arabs living, going to school, you know, living freely in Israel, working in Israel, serving in the military in Israel, serving in the Knesset.
01:28:30.000But yet Tucker Carlson condemns, it seems like he condemns every single Jew on planet Earth for what's happening in Gaza right now, or was happening until the ceasefire.
01:28:40.000And he has no problem condemning the entire population of Israel for a war that was started by Islamic jihadists on October 7th when they decided to carry out a very brutal and barbaric attack, killing 1,200 innocent people.
01:28:56.000So you see the hypocrisy of Tucker Carlson, right?
01:28:59.000Like, oh, well, we need to have sympathy.
01:29:02.000Don't condemn all 230 million Nigerians, but let's condemn the entire population of Israel.
01:29:09.000Let's condemn every single Israeli, even though there's Muslims who are living in Israel.
01:29:16.000Let's condemn every single one of them for this conflict.
01:29:20.000I mean, you see, there's just no intellectual consistency, right?
01:29:45.000You provided me with a lot of your videos from on the ground.
01:29:48.000Some of them I can't even show because I'll get banned if I show some of these.
01:29:50.000I mean, you sent me a video of a beheading, a couple that you knew in Nigeria that was actually beheaded, a Christian couple that was actually beheaded by these Muslims in Nigeria.
01:30:01.000I can't play that video because my account will be banned because of the policies on not showing acts of violence.
01:30:56.000So I guess that makes him an expert in human rights, but on the side of the perpetrator.
01:31:01.000And if you knew the people I know and have seen the things I've seen, for him to call this spin or propaganda, if he ever had a soul, he has sold it.
01:31:16.000I mean, this is what's coming out of his mouth is nothing short of satanic.
01:31:22.000It's demonic for a guy that likes to say that he's such a devout Christian.
01:31:26.000Like we see his condemnation of Christian Zionists.
01:31:29.000Oh, Christian Zionists are the worst people in the world.
01:31:32.000Yeah, worse than jihadist Muslims and worse than communists, right?
01:31:36.000Worse than Chinese communists and worse than jihadist Muslims, right, Tucker?
01:31:40.000So, I mean, I'm glad to hear you say that you used to watch Tucker Carlson because I used to watch Tucker Carlson too.
01:31:48.000And now I just, I can't even watch Tucker anymore unless it's for simply dissecting all of his clips because the shit that comes out of his mouth is just so obscene.
01:31:56.000I didn't even finish playing the rest of that clip.
01:31:58.000There's still another 35 seconds left.
01:32:18.000He wants to condemn the population of Israel, 10 million people, but then he doesn't want to condemn the 230 million people in Nigeria.
01:32:28.000So why is it that we need to have grace on all 230 million people in Nigeria, but we're just going to universally condemn the entire country of Israel, 10 million people, a country that has been scarred, traumatized by the events on October 7th.
01:32:46.000It just, there seems to be like a real intellectual inconsistency and a hypocrisy.
01:33:20.000It's a bit hypocritical for Tucker Carlson to say that there's a genocide in Gaza right now being perpetuated by Israel, condemn the entire Israeli government and then not condemn the Nigerian government and say that there's not a genocide happening in Nigeria.
01:33:37.000You know, hypocrite is too kind of a word.
01:33:39.000You know, your neighbor can be a hypocrite for going to church on a Sunday and then getting drunk on Monday, whatever.
01:34:04.000And people to this day being hacked to death.
01:34:07.000Let me tell you the methodology so you understand how they do it in the north.
01:34:11.000And this is pretty consistent from reports, whether they're pulling over a bus at a checkpoint or they're going to a village, they'll pull out all the people.
01:34:19.000They'll separate the men and the women, the Christians and the Muslims.
01:35:28.000And that's who's being suppressed and ground down in all of this.
01:35:32.000Before the British wiped them out when they sought independence, southern Nigeria was the fastest growing economic region on earth for 10 years running.
01:35:41.000They have so much potential there, but this totalitarian, evil government keeps them suppressed.
01:36:19.000The Nigerian people, if they knew what was going on and we gave them just a little bit of encouragement and support, they would level set this thing pretty quick.
01:36:26.000We don't need to be getting the regime changed because they'll do it themselves.
01:36:29.000It's really not the majority that supports all this.
01:36:34.000It's the powerful minority that controls the system.
01:36:38.000I want to go ahead and play the rest of this clip and then we'll continue because the clip isn't over.
01:36:42.000I mean, I just had to pause it because there's just, as you said before, it's like, it's like it's worse than propaganda.
01:37:08.000There's something very demonic about this, trying to gaslight people into thinking and believing that the videos that they see of innocent Christians being massacred is not real.
01:37:59.000This is clearly, I'll just say it out loud.
01:38:02.000It's an effort to draw the attention of faithful Christians in the United States away from long-standing persecution that we have studiously ignored in Ukraine and other parts of the world.
01:38:14.000That is, I mean, it's obvious to me what's going on.
01:40:13.000Like your crazy conservative uncle who's speaking at the Thanksgiving dinner table, trying to red pill all your family members and talk about how insane they are for wanting to be liberals, right?
01:40:25.000Like we all watched Tucker Carlson for his takes combating the radical left and trying to talk sense into people who were spewing leftist talking points.
01:40:35.000And now it's like Tucker Carlson is the one that's spewing these leftist talking points and these anti-American and pro-Islamic talking points.
01:40:44.000It's like somebody has body snatched Tucker Carlson.
01:40:50.000Maybe that demon that he likes to talk about that he was squad by in the middle of the night when he was sleeping in bed with his dogs and his wife.
01:40:57.000I mean, I think the only thing Tucker Carlson and I have in common is that we both sleep in bed at night with our four dogs.
01:41:27.000It's as if you were the kid whose dad was on the church council and was a low-level bureaucrat, a nice guy on the weekends, but ends up he was the BTK killer.
01:41:40.000He is trying to cover up and deflect attention away from an ongoing horrific genocide.
01:41:47.000And let me tell you something also, based on law, the current government of Nigeria, the president of Nigeria, stands guilty of genocide regardless of what's untangled in the mass graves in the north.
01:42:01.000The suppression, denial, and degrading of internally displaced people by law counts as genocide, and they are guilty of that.
01:46:05.000I'm sorry for laughing, but it's like, are we just going to say that these mass graves are fake and that the woman that was on camera right now wasn't actually dead and that his friends weren't actually killed by Muslims waving machetes?
01:46:17.000I mean, that's what Tucker Carlson is essentially saying.
01:46:19.000He's saying that it's all fake propaganda.
01:46:48.000He's obviously tied in with genocidal Muslims.
01:46:50.000We already know from his media company.
01:46:53.000He received a $15 million investment from Omi Malik, half Iranian, half Pakistani.
01:46:59.000Then he claims he gave the money back.
01:47:02.000He goes to Qatar, he goes to Saudi Arabia, he interviewed the president of Iran.
01:47:06.000He allowed for the president of Iran to lie and say that they never tried to assassinate President Trump, even though they have tried to assassinate President Trump multiple times.
01:47:18.000So now he's trying to lie and say that Muslims aren't persecuting Christians.
01:47:42.000After watching this interview with Robert Amsterdam and Tucker Carlson, there's no denying that Tucker Katarlson is an apologist for jihadis.
01:47:52.000Yeah, and I think this one, for me, and I know for a lot of people, it was the straw that broke the camel's back.
01:47:59.000And, you know, if other corners of the world that I'm not so familiar with, you know, you want to give this old buddy of yours the benefit of the doubt, for me, this is the one that just ripped the scales off my eyes to see how purely evil Tucker Carlson has become.
01:48:15.000And it breaks my heart, but there's no other way to say it.
01:53:24.000It's so sad that Tucker Carlson is denying that this is taking place.
01:53:29.000It's just there's something very twisted and dark.
01:53:31.000And I'm not a Christian, you're a Christian, but I know a lot of Christians.
01:53:35.000And I just don't understand how anybody can call themselves a Christian and deny the persecution of other Christians and to deny the suffering that these innocent people are being subjected to.
01:53:47.000I've been saying it for a very long time.
01:53:49.000There is something very dark and twisted and demented about Tucker Carlson.
01:53:54.000There is something very, very sinister about him.
01:55:08.000Statistics show and Open Doors says that if there's not intervention very soon, that as many as 2 million young people are going to be radicalized there by 2030.
01:55:20.000The kids stuck in this situation without intervention.
01:55:24.000They say about 60% are going to be radicalized.
01:55:37.000When the only power that you've ever seen is brutality and innocence equals death, and you want to get ahead in the world, yeah, that's how these people are recruited.
01:58:36.000She was a principal of a school in Gwoza.
01:58:39.000And when Boko Haram came, the whole story, I mean, she's got her own testimony of witnessing all the atrocities and escaping with her three daughters, made it 500 miles away to this hellhole of a camp that the UN denies exists.
01:58:53.000The government calls them criminals and beggars, and they bulldozed Miss Hannah's home just last November.
01:58:59.000But I asked her, and she's standing there grinding corn to feed her family and sell a little bit so she can get to the next day.
01:59:08.000No running water, sewage ditch, no sanitation, no shelter other than the shanty she built with sticks and feed bags.
01:59:30.000She said, with an education, they will have a path out of here and they'll have strength of character so they won't be recruited by the radicals.
02:00:02.000We give them a high-quality education.
02:00:05.000We can't afford to feed them all every day, but we work with other organizations that'll come in and do medical missions or feed them for a day or for a week.
02:00:55.000And this is where they were told to stay and they have no other way to leave.
02:00:59.000But the other day, just last November, I was right before I got there.
02:01:04.000A big section of this camp where Miss Hannah and all these people lived, they got four days' notice and $12 and said, We're coming with the bulldozers.
02:01:12.000And the house that she built with her own hands for herself and her three daughters, four days and $12, they had to relocate.
02:01:24.000It's an intentional, systematic, degrading, and slow killing of up to between four and ten million of these displaced Nigerians that have done nothing wrong but just to be Christian.
02:01:36.000And how do people, if they want to support and they want to help and they want to contribute resources or, you know, somehow, somehow provide funding or food or resources for these individuals who are in these camps or the children that are studying in the schools that you're overseeing, how do they support them?
02:01:58.000So we have a fantastic organization there.
02:04:02.000And the other things, all these trips since 2019 have been with documentary cameras.
02:04:07.000I've got about 80 hours of the most amazing, in-depth, a lot of it undercover, hidden camera, just really blow the lid off this.
02:04:17.000I've also been to some of the highest offices in the land, multiple former presidents, kings, senators, governors that I've had access to and got it all on video and are working to produce a documentary film that is going to blow the lid off this thing.
02:05:32.000Well, I definitely want to support the work you're doing.
02:05:36.000And so I'm going to connect with you after the show.
02:05:39.000And I want to make a contribution of $10,000.
02:05:42.000And I want to cover, I want to, I want to cover a quarter of the funding for these teachers and these staff so that they can continue teaching these children that are being persecuted by Boca Haram and being displaced for being Christian in Nigeria.
02:05:57.000So I'm going to make a $10,000 contribution.
02:06:00.000And I hope that people watching will also chime in and donate because I think that it's a worthy cause.
02:06:06.000And I'm going to make my contribution in honor of Tucker Carlson, right?
02:06:13.000So that Tucker Carlson, well, I'm serious.
02:06:16.000I'm going to make my contribution in honor of Tucker Carlson so that Tucker Carlson can hopefully come to see the light.
02:06:23.000Maybe Tucker Carlson will actually see that there are children out there who are being persecuted.
02:06:33.000They themselves have had to witness horrible atrocities.
02:06:36.000And maybe Tucker Carlson, if he really is the Christian that he claims to be, he'll see the light and he will apologize for saying that this is propaganda.
02:06:44.000And maybe he will also make a matching contribution.
02:06:46.000Or, I mean, hell, Tucker Carlson's got a hell of a lot more money than I have, right?
02:06:50.000So maybe Tucker Carlson will find it within his heart to make a contribution to your organization as well.
02:06:57.000And maybe he'll have you on his program to make amends for his lies that there's no persecution of Christians in Nigeria.
02:08:07.000I think it's really irresponsible for somebody who has one of the largest podcasts in the country, really the entire world, with that much influence to be lying and saying that these atrocities are acts of propaganda.
02:08:21.000Trying to organize, and a number of people are working on this, but a congressional delegation.
02:09:20.000These are members of a sister church that we've adopted up in the north.
02:09:24.000This is the same hometown where all these IDPs in this one camp, Nuka Kongoro, are from.
02:09:30.000And we took a couple of them back home last year.
02:09:33.000They had to go undercover, dressed as Muslims, had to go in a military convoy, machine gun trucks, had to defuse a roadside bomb to get there.
02:09:41.000And found that the community is now, the remaining community members, the rest of it's just a wasteland.
02:09:47.000These people aren't coming in to relocate and rebuild.
02:10:42.000The men, they were beheaded, and the axes weren't sharp.
02:10:46.000I'm glad you're not able to show it, but it was taking eight or nine licks to do this, and they were doing one after the other after the other, holding their head up.
02:10:55.000Celebrating they just killed another Christian for Allah.
02:10:58.000And if you have the beginning part of the video where it shows the flags going down, that shows you what their ambition is.
02:11:41.000Yazamu Wajibi Semi Kuma Alla Bamudamoko Mukajeu the Mata in the Gasuna Tokukinde one Red Cross the Wantakam Red Cross in the Gasunaje the Togo in the Wawa Dika.
02:11:53.000Tunze and Ke Dubu Allaya Bamu Dama Mukazuna Muka Yum Tampa Kumala Bamudamunakasho Munkashi Kumagasu.
02:12:03.000Yo and Sha Allah Bazam Karakanaji and Wasami one Jahadi Wajibi.
02:15:56.000And it sounds like a lot of children in the background cheering.
02:16:00.000So it sounds like they're indoctrinating young children who are watching this, and they're getting children to, you know, get programmed into the act of kidnapping Christians and killing Christians because you could see the very high-pitched voices or hear the high-pitched voices in the background.
02:16:56.000Mike, is there anything else that you wanted to add before I let you go?
02:17:00.000Your website, social media, where people can follow you.
02:17:03.000I really appreciate you being so generous with your time.
02:17:06.000But I wanted to dedicate my show tonight to debunking what Tucker Carlson said and to highlighting just, you know, the severity of what is happening in Nigeria and how barbaric it is since Tucker Carlson decided to lie to the entire world and say that this isn't actually happening.
02:17:27.000The main takeaway is people need to realize, and this is not an exaggeration or hyperbole.
02:17:33.000This is the same as if it was 1940 and a journalist stumbled into Auschwitz and came out and showed the world what's really going on before World War II.
02:17:43.000It's the same kind of regime, the same level of genocide, and the same design for global conquest.
02:17:50.000We have barely even scratched the surface.
02:17:53.000So many hands in the Nigerian cookie jar.
02:17:55.000They never thought anybody would pay attention.
02:18:13.000And then you have ISIS, Al-Qaeda, Boko Haram, all of them that are now headquartered in this caliphate where all of the violence is taking place with this jihad general that was stationed in Pakistan, Afghanistan.
02:18:41.000This is a clear and present nature for the world.
02:18:44.000If we let this go on and millions of kids become radicalized, like you're seeing in that video, imagine 2 million people with axes doing that with a trillion dollars in mineral wealth.
02:19:12.000Yeah, and the Islamification of the world is going to turn into the Islamification of the West and ultimately the Islamification of America, which is why we should be concerned about this here in the United States.
02:19:24.000Mike, thank you so much for coming on my show tonight.
02:20:35.000Thanks so much for speaking the truth and for all the work that you're doing to save these Christians around the world and to raise awareness about the plight of Christians in Nigeria.
02:20:58.000And I'll be sure to, when I make the contribution, to post the receipt and encourage others to do the same as well.
02:21:04.000And hopefully, you know, hopefully we can actually raise you like a whole entire year of funding, funding the salaries for these staff and these teachers.
02:22:24.000I mean, like these people are either volunteering their time or the standard of living is just so low there because that's not even that's $36,000.
02:22:33.000And that's supposed to pay for a whole entire year of the salaries for the staff and the teachers for all of these, what you said, 600 students.
02:22:42.000And that's not even half of a salary for an American here.
02:24:31.000Put your comments, questions in the chat.
02:24:35.000Before we continue tonight, I want to take a moment to thank the sponsor of tonight's episode of Loomer Unleashed, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals.
02:27:51.000Let's see what else people are saying.
02:27:59.000Yeah, if you want to, if you're interested in looking at his website or contributing, I saw a couple questions and comments about where they can go to visit.
02:28:16.000And you can help Mike Arnold as he's combating the persecution of Christians in Nigeria.
02:28:31.000Another interesting thing that happened today, you know, I just got back from Israel and there was this Axios report that came out this morning that said that Israel was interested in proposing a 20-year plan to extend aid, military aid, of course, from the United States government.
02:28:51.000Well, of course, that turned out to be fake news because Bibi Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel, he did an interview today with Aaron Molan in which he just flat out said that he's at a point where he wants Israel to stop receiving aid from the United States of America.
02:29:11.000And so it's interesting how this interview came out the same day.
02:29:16.000It came out after, but came out after the Axios report.
02:29:19.000Almost like Axios was trying to, or somehow got the scoop on this interview that Nets and Yahoo had with Aaron Molin.
02:29:27.000But it's like, why would you deliberately push out a fake story knowing that the prime minister was going to say the exact opposite?
02:29:39.000Why would they deliberately push out this false story?
02:29:41.000Obviously, it's not real if Bibi Netanyahu is now saying in an interview.
02:29:47.000On camera, I'm not talking about hot mic or anything like that, openly saying that he's completely fine with the United States cutting off aid to Israel and that he wants Israel to be sovereign and independent.
02:30:00.000Here's a story that came out from Barack Ravid, not exactly a trustworthy individual, known for pushing a lot of lies and fake news stories.
02:30:07.000The White House does not like him very much.
02:30:21.000Israel is seeking a new 20-year security agreement with the United States, doubling the usual term and adding America-first provisions to win the Trump administration's support.
02:30:37.000We have a clip of Bibi Netanyahu actually denying this, responding live on air to the Axios headline during his interview this morning with Aaron Molan.
02:30:50.000Let's go ahead and play clip number 32.
02:30:54.000You were a few moments late, clearly running a country, so you're forgiven, but I'm glad you were because this headline just dropped.
02:31:00.000And I want to start the interview by asking for your reaction to it.
02:31:04.000It's on the Axios news site, and it says, Scoop, Israel seeks 20-year military aid deal with U.S. with America-first tweaks.
02:32:07.000So follow what I say, not what is put forward in some leaks that are not true.
02:32:14.000So, Prime Minister, you think it's time to cut military aid entirely from the U.S.?
02:32:19.000I think it's time to assure that Israel is independent.
02:32:22.000Understand that our military aid is like a fraction, a tiny, tiny, tiny fraction of what the U.S. spent in Afghanistan or spent in the Middle East.
02:33:17.000We fight our own battles, but in doing so, we also serve important American interests, like preventing countries that chant death to America from having nuclear bombs to throw out America, and so on.
02:34:13.000Like, how embarrassing to publish this news headline and then literally an hour later have the prime minister of Israel come out and say, Oh, no, no, no, that's not real.
02:35:55.000We fight our own battles, but in doing so, we also serve important American interests, like preventing countries that chant death to America from having nuclear bombs to throw in America.
02:36:20.000They're constantly saying, I don't want to go die for Israel.
02:36:23.000Well, you're not going to die for Israel.
02:36:24.000Israel's actually dying for you because it's the Israeli soldiers that are on the front lines in Gaza and on the front lines on the border in these dangerous countries in the Middle East doing counterterrorism intelligence gathering, right?
02:36:39.000They're the ones that are getting information for the United States about Iran and Hezbollah and Hamas putting themselves in danger.
02:36:48.000I met a lot of soldiers actually when I was in Israel this last week, and they're all suffering from PTSD.
02:36:53.000So if anybody's dying, it's soldiers in the IDF who are dying combating terrorists who would otherwise be coming to the United States of America.
02:37:03.000So people should be a little bit more grateful.
02:37:06.000And also, this idea that we give them all this money for nothing in return.
02:37:11.000There was a report that just came out this last week that shows that we give Israel about $3.8 billion a year.
02:37:18.000And in return, we get about $48 billion of return on our investment.
02:37:22.000So for the people that say that we just give and give and give to Israel and they don't give us anything in return, well, that's just completely false.
02:40:25.000Clip number 21, MTG whines about Laura getting granted a press pass.
02:40:32.000Activist and conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer, as you probably heard, she's now credentialed as a member of the new Pentagon Press Corps after the Defense Department placed rules on reporting that most news outlets refuse to agree to.
02:41:46.000I'm so glad that President Trump called her out.
02:41:48.000I don't know if you saw this, but it's been a long time coming.
02:41:52.000President Trump was asked about Marjorie Trader Green trashing him when he was taking questions from the Oval Office the other day.
02:41:58.000And well, he said, he said it firsthand that MTG has lost her way and she's now playing for the other side.
02:42:04.000Let's go ahead and play clip number 26.
02:42:08.000Meeting with the Syrian president earlier today, Marjorie Taylor Greene, who is a big ally of yours, said that she would rather see you focused on non-stop domestic policy meetings here at the White House instead of non-stop foreign policy meetings.
02:42:18.000What's your response to her saying that and also saying that grocery prices are up and not down, as you've said?
02:42:24.000Yeah, so I don't know what happened to Marjorie.
02:42:28.000She's a nice woman, but I don't know what happened.
02:43:33.000But when I first got in, I said, wow, this situation could lead to World War III.
02:43:37.000And I got NATO together, I got everybody together.
02:43:40.000But with all of that, I passed a great big beautiful bill, which is the biggest tax cuts in the history of our country.
02:43:46.000So when somebody like Marjorie Taylor Greene, who's now catering to the other side, I don't know what, you know, I guess she's, you know, got some kind of vernacular, but I'm surprised at her.
02:43:55.000But when somebody like Marjorie goes over and starts making statements like that, it shows she doesn't know.
02:44:16.000Brian Selter losing his mind over me getting a Pentagon press pass.
02:44:23.000And turning to another topic now, Brian, far-right activist Laura Loomer says she has press credentials to cover the Pentagon.
02:44:32.000What do you think about learning that?
02:44:36.000This is another example of Pete Hegseth and his team trying to remake the Pentagon Press Corps, putting in explicitly pro-Trump voices who are much more known for opinions and, in some cases, propaganda than they are for investigative reporting.
02:44:51.000Of course, there are dozens of major news outlets that decided to turn in Pentagon press credentials earlier this fall rather than go along with Hagseth's restrictive new rules.
02:45:01.000The Pentagon, those reporters, including from CNN, are still covering the military on a daily basis, still coming up with scoops.
02:45:08.000They're just not having physical access to the building.
02:45:10.000But it's created this opening for MAGA media outlets to request credentials and now propose or present themselves as the new Pentagon Press Corps.
02:45:20.000Although figures like Laura Loomer are not actually out there breaking news on the beat, we know Loomer has been taking credit for a number of firings inside the Trump administration.
02:45:31.000She has posted about this repeatedly on X, where she'll post opposition research about someone, and then the Trump administration will oust that person in a matter of hours or days.
02:45:40.000So the idea that she may have physical access to the Pentagon is very interesting.
02:45:45.000It's also notable she's been out there asking for tips.
02:45:47.000She's been asking out there for people's information.
02:45:50.000And that's exactly what the Pentagon requirements of the new Pentagon restrictions are actually designed to stop.
02:45:56.000We'll see if the Pentagon decides to enforce its press credential rules with Laura Loomer.
02:46:04.000Why are they so afraid of me having access to the Pentagon?
02:46:08.000I've broken some of the most consequential stories about the National Security Council and bad actors in the Intel community over the last several months since President Trump's been in office.
02:46:41.000Somebody once told me people want to see you do well, but they never want to see you do better than them.
02:46:48.000Before I close out, again, want to thank the sponsor of tonight's episode of Loomer Unleashed, and that, of course, is Kirk Elliott Precious Metals.
02:46:58.000Breaking news: Laura Loomer has been canceled.
02:47:01.000The president of the United States has refused to take her phone calls as he suspects she is soon to be arrested.
02:47:07.000Is Laura Loomer the most hated person on planet Earth?
02:47:11.000We want to hear from you, the listener, and get your opinion on whether or not I tell you, I heard, I heard she got canceled.
02:47:45.000Because I call Kirk Elliott Precious Metals, and I learned how adding gold and silver to my portfolio is one of the safest ways to not just grow my finances, but to also protect them from the uncertainty of the future.

02:48:43.000With that, I want to thank you all so much for tuning in to tonight's episode of Loomer Unleashed.
02:48:48.000I hope you learned a lot about the persecution of Christians happening right now in Nigeria.
02:48:53.000Again, it's just another example of the brutality of Islam.
02:48:56.000And just know that if we continue to do nothing and sit back and watch as Islamists and jihadist Muslims terrorize people in Africa and the Middle East, they're doing it in Europe.
02:49:08.000I saw today a video of Muslim migrants terrorizing tourists in France.
02:49:14.000If we sit back and we allow for this Islamification of our country to take place, it's not going to be long before we see our entire country here in the United States of America get completely ravaged by Islam.
02:49:26.000Just look at what happened in New York City.
02:49:27.000We already had the election of a jihadist Muslim, a communist Zora Mamdami.
02:49:31.000It's not going to be long before what's happening in Nigeria starts happening here on the streets of America.
02:49:38.000If our leaders, our elected officials don't start fighting back against the scourge of Islam and the threat that it's creating here in our country and for every single civilized human being on planet Earth.
