00:17:00.000 Thank you.

00:17:30.000 Thank you.

00:18:00.000 all right what's up guys welcome welcome welcome i'm back with nick man um so

00:18:07.820 he's got the thing with nick and finch podcast i like that uh yeah so um obviously lots of news

00:18:14.840 going on today uh it looks like we're back in the war in the middle east um i mean what are

00:18:21.180 your thoughts on this in general man it's insane yeah it's so predictable i remember when they did

00:18:25.860 the mou we talked about it even yesterday everybody was celebrating saying oh the war's

00:18:30.160 over everything's back to normal and i remember the same night saying it's not over by a long shot

00:18:34.380 you know i mean we hadn't seen it when they first put it out but it's like unless the u.s and iran

00:18:40.940 have just completely changed like fundamentally how the state is constituted then you're still

00:18:45.440 not going to get a deal and so it's blowing up literally on on every single front yeah every one

00:18:50.720 of the issues is now blown up no pun intended the strait of hormuz lebanon and nuclear file 0.98

00:18:56.340 all are over now so you know the first ceasefire was bullshit this was bullshit and now it's we're 0.92

00:19:02.840 entering just like phase two of what we were in before which is technically a ceasefire but we're 0.96

00:19:07.380 still in a state of war yeah and you know the crazy part is is like uh you know this all started 0.98

00:19:11.700 to unravel um i hate to blame israel but like it's it really is like they were the first ones 0.92

00:19:17.860 So, like, once that started unraveling, that's what, you know, opened the door for them to start bombing each other again. 0.98

00:19:22.620 And then now we're here where we are.

00:19:24.600 And, you know, it's kind of interesting because I think, I know you had mentioned this.

00:19:28.380 I had mentioned it.

00:19:29.520 Like, it's almost as if, like, because people say all the time, well, why is Iran so dead set on making sure that this conflict in Lebanon ends, right? 0.60

00:19:38.600 Like, why not just focus on Iran and everything else like that?

00:19:41.100 But I think there's two reasons. 0.96

00:19:42.920 One, obviously, is because Hezbollah is their most capable fighting force, right?

00:19:47.320 They're the ones that have the most experience fighting the IDF on the ground, right? 0.95

00:19:51.180 And they've been able to repel them a couple of times. 0.95

00:19:52.820 And then number two, and I heard you say this, I was like, that's actually very true. 0.70

00:19:56.680 It almost forces a wedge between the United States and Israel to kind of expose, honestly, how little power we have. 0.85

00:20:05.580 What are your general thoughts on that? 0.79

00:20:06.840 Because when you made that mention, I was like, this is actually really good because it shows a huge weakness that we have in foreign policy that we really can't reel these guys in. 0.82

00:20:15.760 As much as Trump might have this tough rhetoric of like, listen to me and all this other shit. 0.84

00:20:19.820 It's not true. Right. Well, there's a few things I would say that, you know, because the question is, why would Iran insist upon ceasefire in Lebanon as a condition for the ceasefire? 0.98

00:20:30.340 And you could say first that, like you said, Hezbollah is a very powerful.

00:20:33.940 It's really a part of their strategic deterrence against Israel. 0.60

00:20:37.980 There's three things Iran uses to deter Israeli aggression, and that's the nuclear hedge. 0.78

00:20:42.820 It's a ballistic missiles and it's a proxies because all of those function as a second strike. 0.63

00:20:48.380 If Israel strikes Iran such that the regime is decapitated or decimates Iran, there's three ways that Iran could then retaliate to ensure that Israel would never do a first strike. 0.65

00:20:58.940 And that's that Iran might then nuke them to that Iran would send thousands of ballistic missiles, overwhelm air defenses and destroy Israel with the conventional arsenal. 0.82

00:21:08.320 And then the third is even if Iran was completely decimated, no missiles, no nukes, then Hezbollah could always finish the job. 0.83

00:21:14.860 They could launch their 150,000 rockets. 0.94

00:21:17.260 Now it's a much smaller arsenal, but they'd launch them all at once.

00:21:20.460 Israel would be decimated that way, too.

00:21:22.040 So it's all part of their arsenal. 0.97

00:21:23.240 So you could say, one, Iran really needs Hezbollah to be protected as a check on Israel. 0.88

00:21:28.540 Two, you could say, and I think this is interesting also, does Iran want a ceasefire? 0.65

00:21:34.160 I don't even think Iran needs or wants a ceasefire.

00:21:36.980 They actually it's in their interest for the war to go on longer because the longer that the war goes on, it is an economic catastrophe for the United States.

00:21:44.840 And the more painful economically it is for the U.S., it does two things.

00:21:49.260 One, it prevents the U.S. from continuing the war and more likely that they'll want to withdraw.

00:21:54.400 But two, if you impose a lot of pain in this conflict, it deters a future conflict, because especially for the U.S. consumer and voter and but also for the whole world,

00:22:04.720 If the U.S. ever feels like invading Israel or, excuse me, invading Iran ever again, everyone is going to say, oh, and we're going to cause another global depression like the last time. So it benefits Iran actually for this to really hurt the United States. And that's how they strategically defeat us, the economics. 0.69

00:22:21.100 But like you said, I think there's maybe another there's maybe a more subtle play, which is if you condition the ceasefire or rather if you condition the opening of the strait on a ceasefire in Lebanon, you pit those two interests against each other because they're these are imperatives. 0.91

00:22:37.060 It's imperative for Israel's grand strategy, their entire their entire playbook to occupy Lebanon. 0.74

00:22:43.260 They can't not do it. It's imperative for them. 0.52

00:22:46.060 It is imperative for the United States to open up the straight. Can't not do it because if we don't have the straight, then we don't have oil. We don't have oil. You don't have an economy. You don't have an economy. You don't have cheap lending. The whole AI house of cards collapses. People don't even realize how much closing the straight affects our economy because our entire economy is being driven now by AI.

00:23:07.720 It's those AI companies and the companies that fund AI or furnish AI with the compute, with the chips.

00:23:14.920 That's all of our economic growth.

00:23:16.940 It's all being driven by the AI companies, the chip companies, and companies like Google and Microsoft.

00:23:22.160 That's driving all of it.

00:23:23.720 They're driving the real estate.

00:23:25.440 There's not even any commercial building anymore.

00:23:27.400 It's all data centers.

00:23:29.580 And AI is run on cheap electricity.

00:23:32.100 You need cheap energy to have cheap electricity so that it's economical to have all this AI.

00:23:38.000 So if you don't have cheap electricity, it's no longer economical or profitable to build the data centers.

00:23:42.520 So they've actually stopped 50% of all currently in progress and planned data centers because the cost of energy is going up.

00:23:49.920 So it acutely affects the source of our economic growth, because AI is all about electricity.

00:23:56.500 It's all just getting as much energy as possible, and that's exactly what we're in is an energy shortage.

00:24:00.760 But then also, you also realize that these AI companies, they're all financed by borrowing.

00:24:06.500 They're borrowing tons of money to finance the data centers on this hope that AI is going to transform the economy fundamentally.

00:24:13.620 Well, if the money is no longer cheap to borrow, then all these companies go down.

00:24:18.520 That's why Trump wants to slash rates so badly.

00:24:20.100 Exactly, because there's no profits.

00:24:21.640 You know, the AI companies, ChatGPT, Claude, Google, like they don't make money.

00:24:26.820 They don't make enough money to make up for all these investments.

00:24:29.280 So what's going to happen is when the cost of energy goes up, it causes inflation everywhere else. When inflation goes up, they need to raise rates to slow down and cool off the economy. You raise interest rates, you make borrowing more expensive. Now it's impossible for this speculative AI bubble to keep growing.

00:24:45.900 So it's not it's not even a conventional energy shock that leads to a recession, which is what always happens in 73 in the 90s in 2008.

00:24:55.400 Energy shock leads to a contraction. This is really hitting us where it hurts, which is a source of all the GDP growth.

00:25:01.580 It's the AI boom in particular, which is all based on speculation and again, getting as much energy as possible.

00:25:08.600 So point being, we have to open up the strait. We need the energy.

00:25:12.640 And so by pitting these two imperatives against each other, it breaks up the coalition because people don't realize it's not the US.

00:25:19.660 I think they strategically did it, honestly. 0.89

00:25:20.600 I think Iran was like, you know what? 0.94

00:25:23.080 Let's prove to the world that the United States cannot control Israel. 0.84

00:25:25.820 And these guys are a rogue state. 0.82

00:25:27.280 I think that's I think it's less that like red pilling the world and more causing just a breakdown in the solidarity because it is a coalition war. 0.79

00:25:36.560 People don't realize it's not the US versus Iran. 0.80

00:25:39.840 It's really a four way thing. 0.64

00:25:42.160 It's the U.S., Israel, and the GCC.

00:25:44.800 And even within the GCC, there's tension between Qatar and the rest of them, between the UAE and Saudi, especially lately.

00:25:51.400 So it's this huge coalition going against Iran that Iran now wants to break apart and sow division.

00:25:56.720 And this is where Iran is like cutting side deals with Qatar.

00:25:59.240 They told Qatar, if you don't help the United States carry out strikes and moreover, if you stop producing LNG, we won't hit you anymore.

00:26:08.400 Because if we don't hit you, then you don't have to rebuild your infrastructure.

00:26:12.960 And if you don't produce LNG, it puts more pressure on the United States.

00:26:16.360 I don't think people understand how badly Qatar got hit.

00:26:19.080 I think in March, Iran bombed LNG, which for those that don't know, that's 20% of the world's gas right there.

00:26:26.660 And that was built up to kind of circumvent Russia's influence on gas.

00:26:30.800 So the fact that they destroyed that gas inadvertently forced everybody to go back to Putin and say,

00:26:35.660 oh, can we get the cheap gas again from Russia?

00:26:37.460 and he was able to, you know, bring the prices up

00:26:39.900 and now they're making money hand over fist,

00:26:41.420 especially with the oil, too.

00:26:42.580 So, like, and they said that that's going to be out of commission

00:26:44.800 if we stop the war now for at least a year.

00:26:46.880 Right.

00:26:47.360 Even if we stopped it.

00:26:48.600 Exactly.

00:26:49.140 So, you know, Iran is breaking apart that coalition 0.74

00:26:52.720 and what's more, Israel is really the one that's out for regime change. 0.88

00:26:56.280 You know, there's a very, and I always say this on my show,

00:26:58.140 you need to understand the fundamental strategic interest

00:27:02.360 that is driving every country involved

00:27:04.320 because for the U.S. and Israel, it's similar but not identical.

00:27:07.460 Israel is pursuing regime change. That's what they want in particular. That's the ultimate goal is they don't want a revolutionary Islamist Shiite 12 or theocracy running Iran. That's got to go. They don't want normalization. They don't want peace. They want the regime out. The U.S. does not care. They would prefer it's a different regime, but they're ambivalent. What they really care about is nonproliferation of nuclear weapons.

00:27:30.380 So if we could get no nukes or no enrichment, but keep the Iranian regime, we'd take that deal. 0.85

00:27:36.320 And so what Iran is doing is they're driving a wedge between the U.S. and Israel on the conflict, Lebanon versus the strait, but also even on that nuclear issue. 0.93

00:27:45.660 And if they can divide up the U.S. and Israel, Israel can't do regime change alone. 0.79

00:27:50.020 They need the United States. 0.82

00:27:51.480 So it's actually imperative for Iran to deprive Israel of their ally, the United States, to carry out their goal, which is the regime change. 0.78

00:27:59.500 So I think that's maybe like a subtle 5D chess thing that Iran is doing, because realistically, if Iran really needed the war to end, would they insist upon a ceasefire in Lebanon? 0.91

00:28:10.240 I mean, maybe not necessarily, but I think they're throwing that out there because then it puts the U.S. in the position where to get, you know, Iran, we have a deal with them. 0.61

00:28:18.340 Now we need to put pressure on Israel to uphold the deal. 0.81

00:28:21.620 So I think that might be intentional.

00:28:23.660 And I agree with you on that because, you know, these guys have been sanctioned for, what, 50 years?

00:28:27.840 Like to them, it's like, OK, we've already been sanctioned and you made a great, great

00:28:32.240 point earlier for them.

00:28:33.860 It's like they never want to get hit again.

00:28:35.380 Right.

00:28:35.760 Obviously, the 12 day war was not fun for them.

00:28:37.980 They barely evaded, you know, almost a decapitation strike.

00:28:40.700 Then they got hit again in February.

00:28:41.980 So it's like I think at this point they're just tired of getting being able to get struck. 0.98

00:28:45.700 So they want to completely destroy the United States and Israel's ability to ever hit them 0.91

00:28:48.940 again. 0.92

00:28:49.220 I think that's why they're like, we'll drag this thing on.

00:28:51.180 We don't care.

00:28:51.960 And I also do think that they're sensitive to the midterms.

00:28:54.140 I think they know that Trump doesn't have as much time as he's letting on, you know, politically.

00:28:59.700 And I think from what, like, me and you were discussing yesterday, like, these midterms might actually be the first time that someone's actually removed.

00:29:06.940 Right.

00:29:07.200 You know, I think, who are the president?

00:29:08.640 Bill Clinton, Nixon resigned, Nixon knew he was going to be cooked.

00:29:13.140 Trump, and then I'm trying to think, was any other president impeached?

00:29:15.040 Andrew Johnson was impeached and removed, and Nixon resigned.

00:29:19.920 And Trump was impeached, Clinton was impeached, but Clinton was removed from office.

00:29:23.880 Okay.

00:29:25.420 But did he get back?

00:29:26.200 But he finished his term, so he actually did?

00:29:28.160 He got impeached, so he just got indicted.

00:29:30.100 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:29:30.700 But he didn't get convicted.

00:29:31.380 For the false statements.

00:29:32.720 Right, right. 1.00

00:29:33.400 I did not have sex with that woman. 0.99

00:29:37.000 Yeah, dude, that's crazy. 0.93

00:29:38.240 Or no, Andrew Johnson was removed from office, I don't believe.

00:29:40.620 He was impeached, though.

00:29:41.600 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:29:43.480 And either way, it's like a very rare thing for it to happen.

00:29:46.140 Because it requires an enormous amount of votes.

00:29:48.140 It's like, what, you've got to have two-thirds of the Senate votes to get you out of here?

00:29:50.680 Yeah, majority in the House, two-thirds in the Senate.

00:29:52.380 Which is a lot, you know?

00:29:53.740 to get you out of there.

00:29:54.880 And I think Donald Trump is probably going to be probably the most egregious offender

00:29:59.600 of them all.

00:30:00.540 He might be the first.

00:30:01.380 Yeah, he might be the first to actually get it, man.

00:30:03.100 So I was like, like, because in my mind, I'm just thinking of like how the Democrats are

00:30:06.460 going to attack him.

00:30:07.140 And they're just like the kinetic strikes with, with, with, with Hexeth, the, the Iran

00:30:11.340 war, the ice raids, the money, right?

00:30:14.960 You talked about this extensively yesterday where, you know, wasn't Lutnik's sons like 0.94

00:30:20.680 doing some bullshit with Futures or whatever, with the tariffs and everything? 0.91

00:30:25.600 Yeah, with the tariffs. 0.97

00:30:26.400 The tariffs, yeah, because they did some deal where if the tariffs were refunded,

00:30:32.840 that they were going to profit from that financially or something like that.

00:30:35.780 And that's exactly what happened is the Supreme Court overturned the emergency tariffs,

00:30:40.100 and now they've got to be refunded.

00:30:41.420 And I think there's some financial interest then that Howard Lutnick gets because of that.

00:30:45.120 I don't remember all the details, but the biggest thing is in DHS,

00:30:48.240 where Christy Noem allegedly is dating Corey Lewandowski.

00:30:52.460 And there was some kind of thing where they're getting favorable contracts

00:30:56.780 through DHS for people that they know is kind of the basic.

00:31:00.720 That's the gist of it.

00:31:01.660 The Wall Street Journal was on to them.

00:31:03.040 They did a big hit piece about it.

00:31:04.380 And I'd even heard about that because I have some friends in DHS,

00:31:07.280 and they would tell me it's just like egregious what's going on.

00:31:10.040 And it's not just there.

00:31:11.260 It's all over the place.

00:31:12.340 It's the GIA, bro.

00:31:13.400 The DOJ.

00:31:14.800 The Department of Justice.

00:31:16.240 Oh, yeah.

00:31:16.620 The GIA.

00:31:17.000 The Great Barrett Intelligence Agency.

00:31:17.820 In the DOJ, they say it's this Russian billionaire named Epstein.

00:31:23.360 Okay.

00:31:23.740 Not Epstein, but Epstein, a Russian billionaire.

00:31:26.520 They say he runs the DOJ.

00:31:28.380 This is very – no one knows this, by the way.

00:31:30.320 Okay.

00:31:30.840 But I was told by certain sources that that's like the big – that's like another big scandal waiting to happen.

00:31:37.080 Boris Epstein, Russian billionaire, has huge influence in the DOJ.

00:31:40.800 They say he basically runs it.

00:31:42.260 Interesting, interesting.

00:31:43.360 Yeah, so this kind of stuff is going on everywhere, and I think that –

00:31:47.180 Because I remember, for those of you guys that remember when we did the Club of Cost, we were talking about this in the party bus, right?

00:31:54.380 Besides us, you know, playing some choice music.

00:31:57.620 I remember you talking about this like, yeah, they're stealing.

00:31:59.680 Like, the administration is doing a bunch of BS behind the scenes.

00:32:02.960 And then, you know, obviously this was before Christine Noem resigned.

00:32:05.060 I think this was before Pambani resigned.

00:32:07.900 I think, had Bongino left at that point?

00:32:10.340 No, Bongino didn't leave either yet.

00:32:11.300 No, he was still there.

00:32:12.160 He was still there, too.

00:32:13.020 So, like, there's just so many, like, and you just look at all the people, right?

00:32:17.180 that are that are there and i think uh i think bongino kind of saw the writing on the wall and

00:32:21.140 he said was like i gotta get out of here dude he did there were leaks yeah he because he was

00:32:25.160 complaining and basically saying like i lost everything because i was making millions of

00:32:29.160 dollars he had a podcast like you know he had a career he gave it all up to be in the fbi and he

00:32:33.560 goes we can't even do anything yeah you know and and i can understand me just putting on like my

00:32:38.600 former agent hat on like as a deputy director you're kind of powerless dude you can't really

00:32:43.400 you're the number two guy so it's like it's really cash and pam making all the real decisions right

00:32:49.420 and um and then obviously the epstein file thing was like really bad because like both cash and

00:32:55.360 bongino were talking about this extensively before um before getting on so for like them to have the

00:33:02.260 epstein debacle it was like oh and then obviously he's gonna take a credibility hit because it's

00:33:06.780 like well you got to go back to broadcasting after this what are you gonna do um and then like these

00:33:10.940 guys aren't making that much dude you're you're you know you're a director you're probably making

00:33:15.360 uh somewhere between 170 to 200 some thousand which you know that's great money for sure but

00:33:20.880 like when you're making that much money a month right it's like something like a bongino that's

00:33:25.020 like what the hell am i doing here right right and obviously i think his wife was still running

00:33:28.280 the show but she's not gonna be able to pull in the same numbers and everything else like that so

00:33:30.820 like from for him from his perspective he's like i gotta get out of here and then i think he also

00:33:35.980 saw the writing on the wall with all the other crap that was going on more than likely so he was

00:33:39.180 like i gotta get out because i found it crazy how like he only left after a year um but then like

00:33:43.900 when i started thinking about it like yeah you don't really have any rope you can't do anything

00:33:46.800 you're just you're the you know deputy cash is the one making decisions and even he's not really

00:33:51.080 the boss because pam bondi is and then the other thing about the epstein files why like it kind of

00:33:55.480 killed them was and i was saying this forever the fbi only has a segment of the files like epstein

00:34:03.200 had a criminal case that was run by the fbi but he also we know we know he was like an intel asset

00:34:08.380 for a foreign country.

00:34:11.500 So you know the CIA is going to have a file.

00:34:13.340 The DEIA is going to have a file.

00:34:16.080 NSA, all these different intelligence components

00:34:17.820 are going to have a file on Epstein.

00:34:19.740 Well, Pambani has no power over these guys.

00:34:21.900 And Cash doesn't have any power over these guys.

00:34:23.920 So even if they were to be transparent,

00:34:26.260 and here's everything we got at DOJ,

00:34:28.760 the other intel agents could say,

00:34:30.060 well, we don't want to share.

00:34:30.880 And then boom, they take the hit

00:34:31.860 because most Americans don't know

00:34:33.860 that the government is extremely bureaucratic

00:34:37.200 can compartmentalize where it's like one agency might release everything but another one might

00:34:40.720 say no we're not gonna right or or or um the fbi might have information from the cia but they can't

00:34:46.040 put it out publicly because it's not their info and they have to get like a third agency rule like

00:34:49.740 oh can i you know declassify this no you can't it's ours so it's like and again i'm just like

00:34:54.420 giving different scenarios here but i could see why it was so difficult and there's like um like 0.79

00:34:58.720 for paying for cash and then obviously bongino and he's like i gotta get the fuck out of here

00:35:02.380 and then you add in all the other crap i mean you know because when you said that back in january 0.99

00:35:07.100 That really had me thinking, like, what the fuck? 0.99

00:35:09.200 And then right after, bam, Bongino, gone. 1.00

00:35:11.860 Cash Patel, they're talking about firing him.

00:35:14.140 Pam Bonney, gone.

00:35:15.120 Kristi Noem, gone.

00:35:16.020 Who else?

00:35:16.660 Tulsi Gabbard.

00:35:17.160 Tulsi Gabbard, gone.

00:35:18.360 Joe Kent.

00:35:18.960 Joe Kent.

00:35:19.900 Mike Walts was already gone, right, with the signal gate, I think.

00:35:22.360 He's still there, though, as the UN ambassador.

00:35:24.080 Yeah, yeah.

00:35:24.740 He'll never leave.

00:35:25.800 Yeah, right?

00:35:26.380 It's so crazy. 1.00

00:35:27.200 Yeah, you go from national security advisement to fucking, like, you're the UN bitch now. 1.00

00:35:30.780 Yeah. 1.00

00:35:31.200 It's insane, yeah.

00:35:32.440 That guy will never, ever, ever get fired.

00:35:34.600 But Tulsi Gabbard, yeah, she's got to go, you know.

00:35:36.420 And even Pam Bondi, you know, it's funny. I didn't like Pam Bondi. She comes from Florida.

00:35:41.300 Very incompetent, dude. I was shocked they made her attorney general is insane. 1.00

00:35:45.200 Yeah, well, you know why that is. Susie Wiles brought all these people in. 1.00

00:35:48.880 She's the chief of staff. She's from Florida. She's from Ballard.

00:35:51.740 So she brought in Rubio, Waltz, Bondi. These are all Florida creatures.

00:35:55.940 But the thing even about Pam Bondi, she wasn't even actually the worst because a lot of the really MAGA people in DOJ, 0.98

00:36:03.180 they said bondi would actually let the more trump loyal people do these indictments they were working

00:36:08.920 on some big indictments and when todd blanche got in they shut it all down like blanche is actually 0.99

00:36:13.820 worse than bond as bad as bondi is and she's terrible and she fucking sucks blanche is even 0.99

00:36:19.440 worse but this is just like a story he came in and shut down watched it yeah he shut down the 0.99

00:36:24.660 indictments against the enemies or yeah against some of the democrat foes yeah well why do you

00:36:28.760 Why do you shut it? I would think he's not he's not like a big MAGA guy.

00:36:31.880 Pam Bondi was letting because he was letting it happen.

00:36:34.780 Yeah, because, you know, I knew people working in Trump admin number one.

00:36:38.300 And what they would say about how the government works in the White House and the admin is basically it comes down to if two low, very low level bureaucrats disagree, it gets kicked up.

00:36:49.720 If those middle level bureaucrats disagree, it gets kicked up and it keeps getting kicked up until it gets like cabinet level.

00:36:55.960 And then it goes up to the president.

00:36:57.200 And so it's really about these people that are in kind of like the middle and lower positions. You know, are they going to be able to have the discretion to do what they need to do? That's really what it comes down to in a lot of these situations. And so someone like Pam Bondi, she was actually doing her job in a sense that she was letting the underlings who are MAGA work on the indictments.

00:37:16.520 And there's actually some good stuff coming down the pike. 0.99

00:37:18.800 But then she gets kicked out. 0.95

00:37:20.620 She was a little bit more laissez-faire. 0.97

00:37:22.320 She wasn't intervening to shut these things down.

00:37:25.340 She wasn't as activist.

00:37:26.600 But now that Blanche is in, he's much more strict about what they're able to do.

00:37:30.440 And he doesn't believe really in that.

00:37:31.840 He doesn't believe in doing all the indictments.

00:37:33.500 So that's gotten a lot slower and basically shut down.

00:37:36.400 Like nothing new is coming with Blanche in charge.

00:37:38.480 You know what?

00:37:38.840 That makes perfect sense because you think about it.

00:37:41.320 Under Bondi, John Bolton got indicted.

00:37:46.200 Letitia James out of New York got indicted.

00:37:53.780 Comey got hit.

00:37:56.700 And then I think they indicted him.

00:37:59.540 It failed, then they recharged him.

00:38:00.880 And then Letitia, same thing.

00:38:02.320 Because I think the United States attorney out of Virginia or something like that wasn't confirmed properly.

00:38:09.540 And so they were like, oh, well, you know, this indictment is going to be gone.

00:38:12.260 So they're refiling it.

00:38:14.200 So, yeah, I mean, that makes sense.

00:38:16.900 So you're saying Blanche is like way more.

00:38:18.760 He's worse.

00:38:19.580 He's like, hey, let's not indict all these people, et cetera.

00:38:21.940 Let's not go after them.

00:38:22.940 Yeah, he's not letting them work on anything else.

00:38:24.660 Is he scared of the blowback?

00:38:24.740 Is he scared of potential retaliation when they're out of there?

00:38:27.480 He just doesn't support it from a policy point of view.

00:38:29.900 He's not in favor of going after these people.

00:38:31.800 Yeah.

00:38:32.060 So Bondi was letting him go after it, and he shut the whole thing down.

00:38:35.060 He was in the defense attorney before, wasn't he?

00:38:37.360 He was in the government.

00:38:38.460 I don't know his background.

00:38:39.960 I think he was.

00:38:41.800 And Brett, can you double check for me real quick?

00:38:43.280 I think he was a part of Trump's legal team when he was dealing with the document case out of New York when they indicted him the first time.

00:38:50.640 I think it was on his legal team.

00:38:52.120 Who was it?

00:38:52.720 Todd Blanche.

00:38:53.840 Todd Blanche.

00:38:54.680 But yeah, so, no, because it really got me to thinking. 0.97

00:38:57.000 I was like, damn, all these people are going out. 0.50

00:38:58.700 So yeah, Cash had the issues that he had, like drinking alcohol too much, partying, taking a jet around, his girlfriend getting a security detail, the Epstein files, Pambani, same thing. 0.98

00:39:12.280 And, you know, Bongino being the number two guy, he was like,

00:39:14.240 I got to get the fuck up out of here.

00:39:16.120 Hexah with the kinetic strikes. 0.90

00:39:18.160 I'm trying to think here of Rubio, if they would go after him for anything.

00:39:21.500 I can't think of it.

00:39:22.140 No, you know what's funny?

00:39:23.920 Rubio, you know, I shouldn't even say this.

00:39:26.300 I'm just, like, thinking of how they're going to, like, go after them.

00:39:28.580 Well, but Rubio's people are the most competent.

00:39:31.340 Yeah.

00:39:31.700 And listen, listen.

00:39:32.280 You're right.

00:39:32.660 I do not support Rubio at all.

00:39:34.440 Not even slightly.

00:39:35.480 I'm not saying, but I'm saying, like, this is not me trying to, like,

00:39:39.240 say anything to promote him.

00:39:40.460 Like, if he's the nominee, I would vote Democrat.

00:39:43.260 I would consider that, you know, because he's that bad.

00:39:45.680 However, what is funny about Rubio, so he's Secretary of State.

00:39:49.480 State Department is on lock.

00:39:50.960 Those are the most competent people.

00:39:52.680 And DHS is probably the worst. 1.00

00:39:54.640 That's, like, the most R guys, like, the most, like, based people are probably in DHS. 1.00

00:39:59.760 Like, they're maybe the most aligned. 0.99

00:40:01.400 And State Department, they got that shit on lock. 0.99

00:40:04.280 Like, they are the most competent. 1.00

00:40:05.800 And they run it like a tight ship.

00:40:07.440 Rubio surprisingly

00:40:08.980 he's a very formidable opponent

00:40:11.320 because he knows what he's doing. He's a refined politician

00:40:13.240 I've always said it like

00:40:14.420 I don't think there's any shame in admitting this

00:40:16.780 he's an extremely refined and good politician

00:40:18.480 we don't support that

00:40:20.680 we don't like his policies or whatever he's owned by the Jays

00:40:23.340 and everything else but I think we can both say 0.91

00:40:25.400 so is Netanyahu is a refined

00:40:27.140 politician you know because he's

00:40:29.240 I think the one thing that Netanyahu can do

00:40:31.120 is he can blend

00:40:32.780 every time I watch his speeches I'm like

00:40:35.000 this guy all this guy does is like 0.99

00:40:37.080 make israel's problems america's problems you know yeah we kill these terrorists today blah blah 0.56

00:40:40.920 oh by the way they were trying to target you guys too like it's like he's able to always like

00:40:45.080 bring in israeli issues and somehow make them american issues and show either like what we're

00:40:49.280 doing here benefits you guys as well and i think that's something that really only he's been able

00:40:53.000 to do like i don't think any other israeli prime minister has been able to like you know use israel

00:40:58.340 problems and or justify u.s um you know aid so much as to like we're taking care of the problem

00:41:03.540 for you guys we're on the front lines but like but yeah i agree with you that like um above them

00:41:07.540 all rubio is for sure the the the most refined politician doesn't mean he's good i mean it's

00:41:12.220 like staff yeah like people in admins say that state department like they're the only ones that

00:41:16.560 know what they're doing they're competent and uh like you know they're ideologically aligned with

00:41:20.700 rubio vance too they say that vance's people are very competent and effective um but these other 0.98

00:41:26.020 people at doj and dhs and these other departments i mean they don't know what the fuck they're doing 0.96

00:41:30.940 And I'm like, that's so typical. I told people would be like this because at the end of the day, Trump is just incompetent. 1.00

00:41:36.320 Yeah. You know what? So many people ascribe to malice. You could easily ascribe it to incompetence. 0.98

00:41:40.920 They just don't know what they're doing. It's so classic because, you know, Trump, the first term, everybody said, well, he couldn't get his agenda through because the personnel were terrible.

00:41:51.040 That was that was the headline all the time. Swamp creatures with. Yes. This is all these different excuses.

00:41:56.060 It was bad advisors, bad personnel. They said, you know, because in 16, Trump had this Web site called great again dot org where they were soliciting people to volunteer to work in his administration from like everywhere, as opposed to these like swamp creature, you know, alumni from the different Republican campaigns or the Bush admin.

00:42:13.820 So they had this Web site called great again dot org where they said, send us your resume. You could come and work in the government, be part of the revolution.

00:42:20.120 They didn't use that at all.

00:42:21.140 And of course, you know, then they brought in like Jeb Bush alum, Rubio alum, Cruz alum, and those people all hated Trump.

00:42:28.140 We used to joke in D.C. back in those days, if you had worked for the Trump campaign, it made you less likely to get a job in the Trump White House.

00:42:36.000 They say, oh, you worked for the Trump campaign?

00:42:37.760 You're disqualified. 0.83

00:42:38.620 We don't want you.

00:42:39.160 Because the people that were running it were like establishment rhino types, you know? 0.99

00:42:43.080 And so that was the big excuse.

00:42:44.400 They said, well, why did Trump not pull us out of Syria?

00:42:46.720 Because the generals were lying.

00:42:48.100 You know, they wouldn't carry out the orders.

00:42:49.580 They would lie about the troop totals. And there was some truth to that. But in 24, they said, well, it'll be different this time because, you know, this time the posters are in control. Our guys are going to be in the admin. And it's like you actually have like based people in the administration. You have a lot of them like the personnel.

00:43:05.960 Anyone will tell you there's a lot of people in like National Security Council, which were good.

00:43:11.120 And there were people in the Pentagon that were good and people in DHS that were good.

00:43:14.260 But now Trump himself is holding back the personnel.

00:43:18.940 The personnel are more radical than him.

00:43:21.280 So the personnel, for example, in Homeland Security, they want to do mass deportations.

00:43:25.580 They want a wall. 0.96

00:43:26.420 They're fucking furious about what is happening. 0.99

00:43:29.180 Trump doesn't want to build the wall anymore. 0.99

00:43:31.920 Yeah, I have that.

00:43:32.880 I don't want to say how I know that, but it's Trump that doesn't he doesn't want to do it.

00:43:37.140 He says we don't need it anymore. We have, you know, the military there.

00:43:40.420 We have other means of securing the border. We don't need a wall.

00:43:43.800 Trump is holding them back. So, you know, before we would say the personnel and the advisors are holding.

00:43:50.420 We need to unleash Trump so he can be himself and do what he needs to do.

00:43:54.420 Now it's like the personnel is being held back by him.

00:43:57.140 his incompetence his lack of follow-through in some cases he's just betraying the core promises

00:44:04.320 of what we know we were all about in 2016 so and i said this in 24 and i knew it was going to happen

00:44:10.220 when he threw project 2025 under the bus remember them yes project 2025 at heritage

00:44:16.400 it was it was two things it was a white paper a policy a 93 page white paper where they said this

00:44:22.500 is what we're going to do in every department and agency how we're going to make america great again

00:44:26.180 And that's what got the headlines, because people said it's very radical.

00:44:29.260 The Democrats freaked out when they saw it.

00:44:31.160 Right.

00:44:31.480 Like, they were, are you, I remember vividly, do you support Project 2025?

00:44:35.320 That was, like, what everyone was asking during the 24th.

00:44:37.100 Yeah, people forget.

00:44:38.220 It was huge.

00:44:38.940 Big deal.

00:44:39.540 But then, in addition to that, it was also.

00:44:41.620 He denied it during a debate.

00:44:42.920 Do you support, I think, during one of his public debates or interviews, he denied it.

00:44:46.660 Like, I don't, you know, I don't know.

00:44:49.100 He said, I got nothing to do with that.

00:44:50.260 Yeah. 1.00

00:44:50.820 And, which, there's some truth to that.

00:44:52.940 But it was also a personnel database.

00:44:54.680 They put together a database of like, you know, very Trump loyal, ideologically America first people that they were going to use Schedule F, reclassify a bunch of federal workers, fire them, you know, because a lot of them have these protections.

00:45:09.680 You know, an incoming administration can only hire and fire about 5000 people.

00:45:14.000 If you reclassify a lot of the workers, you can fire like up to 50,000.

00:45:17.980 And so the idea was we're going to fire 50,000 people.

00:45:20.980 Some of them we're just not even going to replace.

00:45:22.760 But the ones that we do, we're going to replace them with guys that are vetted, guys that are loyal to Trump, loyal to the agenda.

00:45:28.000 And what Trump said in like January 23 and then into 24 is he said, no, Project 2025 has no control over that.

00:45:37.440 He said, I want them to work with America First Policy Institute, AFPI, which was that's like the official MAGA think tank.

00:45:45.120 It's run by Brooke Rollins, who's now the secretary of agriculture.

00:45:47.660 And they are the worst. Like they are the biggest rhinos of all time. America last like they are so establishment. It's not even funny. And Trump basically said Project 2025 either needs to defer completely to AFPI or they can have no influence. At the end of the day, he disavowed them like three or four times. They got totally pushed out. And that's when that's when I disavowed Trump, because at that point is about June 24. 0.91

00:46:13.160 I said it's very clear what direction this is going to go in, and it's going to be just like the first term.

00:46:18.300 A lot of bad personnel, not enough good personnel, but moreover, it's like Trump's judgment is compromised.

00:46:23.580 He's still incompetent, because really, I mean, there was no resistance this time.

00:46:27.740 You remember in 25, it's like the left was defeated.

00:46:30.440 They were eradicated.

00:46:31.620 They were so weak, no ability to resist, and we had the House, Senate, White House.

00:46:36.980 We had Doge.

00:46:37.840 We're moving so fast.

00:46:38.840 so much was possible and the only reason it was squandered is because they just were incompetent

00:46:43.380 that's why tariffs didn't happen that's why the border wall didn't happen that's why doge didn't

00:46:48.420 happen um you know just wrong people bad people and you know it's funny because like you get a lot

00:46:53.780 of heat for not voting right and saying hey i'm not going to vote etc people always forget i

00:46:59.140 vividly remember when you said i'm not going to vote unless trump can promise that we're not going

00:47:03.080 to go to war with iran that was like one of your number one things need mass deportations and no

00:47:07.620 war with iran those were your two things and it happened the war with iran and no mass deportation

00:47:13.320 so it's like you know people said that you didn't even vote nick yeah but it's like i remember when 0.67

00:47:17.100 you originally made the announcement no war with iran no fucking war with iran i'm gonna withhold

00:47:22.200 my vote and he fucking ended up doing it and like for me i was pissed off and i think the whole this 0.87

00:47:26.660 is what actually fractured the base made so many people say no this iran war is highly unpopular 0.98

00:47:30.600 even people that like uh that voted for him and supported him because like from my perspective i

00:47:36.360 voted mostly for foreign policy and then obviously for the immigration like because i was like i

00:47:41.200 agree with you what we were talking about yesterday donald trump is probably one of the only presidents

00:47:44.880 that can actually do deportations because everyone is terrified and i can say this from like my

00:47:49.620 background with like working with ice the thing that used to always mess us up when we did

00:47:53.880 deportations was interior enforcement because you got to deal with the sanctuary cities you got to

00:47:58.400 deal with the mayor you got to deal with the police department they don't want to help you out i vividly

00:48:01.640 remember so many times i'd go to austin texas we'd have restaurants for people austin pd we need you

00:48:05.360 to come on help they wouldn't come they wouldn't show up even if though it was a felony warrant

00:48:09.180 they're like wait it's immigration related now we're not helping you so it was a nightmare to

00:48:13.040 do like interior enforcement so when i saw trump actually putting ice into these cities and doing

00:48:17.400 deportation oh wow i gotta give this guy credit because like me from the inside knows how hard

00:48:22.140 it is to do interior enforcement you know enforcing at the border is nothing like this is why democrats

00:48:26.680 have more deportations because everyone comes in they catch them throw them back out easy to have

00:48:31.740 more deportations like oh well obama has more deportations than trump that doesn't count

00:48:35.540 buddies because they had to open open borders and then they want to come in but when i saw him

00:48:39.660 doing the interior stuff i was like this is good like i i supported what he was doing in 0.97

00:48:43.520 minneapolis like renee good and alex pretty i was like don't let this fucking scare you because 0.94

00:48:47.400 these are good shoots like you know look people lost their life horrible but do not commit a 0.95

00:48:52.280 felony and impede federal agents like what are you doing like you can't do that uh you know alex

00:48:56.300 pretty had a gun on him the other chick tried to run a guy over like you know obviously democrats

00:48:59.920 were putting an enormous amount of pressure but it kills me because i noticed that he kind of took

00:49:04.060 his foot off the gas with the mass deportations to open up political leeway for the iran war right

00:49:09.220 and i was like dude seriously like that's when i was like like you're you're dropping doing the

00:49:14.540 immigration the first president actually has the balls to go in do interior enforcement something

00:49:18.760 that i've never seen ever by any administration um you know using border patrol using eyes using 0.99

00:49:23.880 fbi agents like shit i've never seen before like using fbi agents to do immigration is nuts right 0.97

00:49:28.680 Because, like, they never want to do anything, those guys. 1.00

00:49:30.760 They're so fucking lazy, but that's a whole other conversation. 0.98

00:49:33.280 So when I saw that, I was like, great. 0.99

00:49:35.400 Like, we're actually going to get some interior enforcement.

00:49:36.900 Finally, they're going to stop these sanctuary cities, dude.

00:49:38.820 Because, like, I feel like I'm going through PTSD now.

00:49:42.120 Dude, I can't tell you how many times, Nick.

00:49:43.560 Like, I would literally be having, we'd be looking for somebody.

00:49:46.540 We'd ask the state locals to help, and they'd say no.

00:49:48.440 Yeah. 1.00

00:49:48.600 Because of fucking sanctuary rules. 1.00

00:49:49.860 It's like that in Chicago. 1.00

00:49:51.060 Insane, dude.

00:49:51.820 Insane.

00:49:52.340 Or we'd have, oh, the best. 0.97

00:49:54.260 Put a detainer on the guy.

00:49:55.280 You know he's going to be released on this day at this time. 0.98

00:49:57.080 They fucking let him out early on purpose 0.97

00:49:59.020 So that you can't get him 1.00

00:49:59.960 And the guy is like a murderer

00:50:01.760 Or the guy has like a long criminal history

00:50:03.280 They let him go because they don't want to be the ones to be like 0.93

00:50:05.340 Yeah we gave him the immigration after

00:50:06.740 They'll purposely let him out early or not tell you

00:50:08.820 After you put a detainer on him

00:50:10.380 And we couldn't do anything to them

00:50:12.680 So it's like it was absolutely insane that they wouldn't comply

00:50:15.540 And this is happening all across the country

00:50:17.360 So when Trump finally said you know what

00:50:18.740 We're going to go ahead we're going to do mass deportations

00:50:20.600 We're going to actually back ICE

00:50:21.620 We're going to let them go into these cities 0.99

00:50:23.620 We're going to tell the locals if you don't fucking comply 0.98

00:50:25.540 Remember Pam Bonney sued them 0.99

00:50:26.600 If you don't comply, you're going to get sued. 0.99

00:50:28.240 But then they completely bailed on it for the fucking Iran war. 0.99

00:50:30.760 Yeah, they just dropped it. 0.99

00:50:31.780 And it's sad because they put all the pieces in place to do it.

00:50:36.200 You had the big, beautiful bill, which allocated $80, $90 billion for border enforcement.

00:50:40.660 And it was supposed to be for a wall, for ICE agents, the infrastructure.

00:50:43.980 And they did it.

00:50:44.680 They hired 10,000 ICE agents.

00:50:46.360 They trained the existing ones.

00:50:47.920 Because I was told that the problem is ICE has not done interior enforcement for so long.

00:50:53.940 Yes.

00:50:54.300 That a lot of them aren't trained to do this.

00:50:56.220 Like they just don't have the skills. So they had to hire a bunch of them, train a bunch of them.

00:51:00.640 Then they bought all these warehouses to detain the immigrants because we don't have that either. 1.00

00:51:04.840 And they did that. You know, they bought all the warehouses. I saw. Yeah, they're trying to like sell them. 0.98

00:51:09.760 Now they're selling them. Now they're selling them. They didn't even use them.

00:51:12.660 It's like you could have done it. But and here's the best part is the left says Trump is Hitler.

00:51:18.200 But Hitler was a visionary, you know, Hitler. And it's not to like glaze Hitler or whatever.

00:51:23.300 But you recognize that Hitler was like a unique figure in the sense that he was compelled by destiny and a vision.

00:51:30.480 And he was an ideas man. 0.63

00:51:32.020 You know, he was called the man against time by some of the esoteric Hitlerists. 0.61

00:51:36.120 Like he's played this like cosmic role in history.

00:51:39.440 Trump, not that guy. 1.00

00:51:41.100 Like Trump is just dumb. 1.00

00:51:42.920 And I don't say that flippantly. 1.00

00:51:44.800 Like obviously he's like a smart guy.

00:51:46.400 You'd have to be smart to be president.

00:51:47.840 But he does not have that political talent.

00:51:50.920 He doesn't have that genius.

00:51:51.840 Because what you would have done in that situation is we're going to go into the sanctuary cities.

00:51:56.960 We're going to arrest and deport everybody.

00:51:59.180 Oh, our Antifa and left wing protesters interfering. 0.99

00:52:02.680 We're going to bring in the National Guard and crush them.

00:52:05.020 And it's like create the crisis, solve the crisis.

00:52:08.020 That's just like dictatorship 101. 0.89

00:52:10.500 That's your Caesar like figure.

00:52:12.580 Manufacture the crisis that creates a demand for Trump to take over everything.

00:52:17.080 and like think about like where the country would be if we just kept pushing in that direction like 0.98

00:52:22.060 Minneapolis okay these Somalians are stealing all the money the whole country's against this 0.79

00:52:27.540 send in homeland investigation send in DOJ DHS immigration customs and border patrol and if 0.99

00:52:34.680 these shithead Antifa are firebombing them and shooting them then bring in the National Guard 0.98

00:52:38.780 and crush those people put them in prison for 10 years like they did in Texas they did like a fire 0.99

00:52:43.420 bomb thing in texas they send this guy to a hundred years in prison for doing that it's like

00:52:48.080 and good like yeah because these these antifa people they are the enemy if you try to enforce

00:52:53.200 the laws they're going to become terrorists so put him in jail forever and and then a democrat

00:52:58.720 can't take him back out it's like and then if there's more protests and crush them too like

00:53:02.760 this is how you get a right-wing takeover of the country but trump doesn't have that gene

00:53:07.540 if it gets bad he goes oh we got to back off yeah oh if there's protests oh we got to back

00:53:12.760 Look out, Stephen, we've got to stop doing the deportations.

00:53:15.560 We're going to get killed in the midterms.

00:53:17.080 It's like the midterms.

00:53:18.100 You should even hold the midterms.

00:53:19.740 Cancel the midterms.

00:53:20.700 What they should have done, too, in the Senate, get rid of the filibuster. 0.90

00:53:25.720 Get rid of the filibuster.

00:53:26.980 Pass the SAVE Act.

00:53:28.460 Pass the SAVE Act. 0.68

00:53:29.580 Have mandatory voter ID.

00:53:31.200 Don't have to worry about the midterms.

00:53:32.800 Get all the Republicans in line to do the redistricting or the, what do you call it,

00:53:38.600 gerrymandering to to get as many of those seats as possible out of those Republican states.

00:53:44.580 Don't worry about the midterms. You see, this is how you need to be thinking. But it's like,

00:53:48.220 think about all these opportunities that are wasted from COVID and BLM in the first term,

00:53:53.140 which you could have used to this in the second term. You could nuke the filibuster, do voter

00:53:58.280 ID. You could manufacture a crisis, send in immigration and National Guard. You could do 0.94

00:54:03.700 all these things but like i said the team is retarded pam bondy christy noem these are fucking 1.00

00:54:09.500 idiots dude christy noem she's dressed like a barbie doll because her husband is into bimbo 1.00

00:54:14.200 she was focusing more on like dressing up as like you know one day as an ice deportation officer 1.00

00:54:20.520 another day as a cb officer another day as a border patrol agent you know she's over here like 0.98

00:54:24.100 being fucking you know playing dress up and you know and here's the other thing too because i 0.98

00:54:28.520 noticed um when you were saying before the people that were incompetent notice how they came from 0.99

00:54:31.940 the state government and then the people that were tend to be a little bit more competent

00:54:34.640 jd vance marco rubio they were already federal so you know and then you put someone who's like

00:54:39.560 a governor of what uh north dakota south dakota if i'm not mistaken christy noem as you know the

00:54:45.160 secretary of dhs of course he's not going to know what she's doing and you know and the thing also

00:54:49.480 is like um i think the biggest issue was that like he stopped doing the mass deportations and

00:54:55.580 he stopped doing the ice stuff to create like political leeway for himself for iran because

00:55:00.080 he knew that the ice raids were unpopular so he's like okay let me just like let me listen to these 0.98

00:55:04.740 fucking losers complaining and then like stop that a little bit so i can get more i don't even think 0.97

00:55:09.200 that's true because they were talking about winding that down in december actually okay so 0.99

00:55:14.580 you don't even think the around war played a role no i think because the earliest signals i had been

00:55:18.280 talking about it on my show the earliest signals were coming in like december there was like already

00:55:22.500 it was even before that because that was in like the first and second week in january it was

00:55:29.960 before that, I distinctly remember they were saying, you know, we need a refresh on that,

00:55:35.720 a refresh on the policy, change the strategy. That was the kind of talk that was going around

00:55:40.460 from immigration, from the deputy chief of staff, Blair, in the White House, from Susie Wiles.

00:55:46.720 Trump went to the congressional retreat in Doral in Florida, right, right around here.

00:55:51.760 And it was Blair and Trump both came out and they said, yeah, don't use the word mass deportations.

00:55:57.660 we're going to talk now only about you know deporting the worst offenders the worst of the

00:56:01.540 worst criminal aliens right which is an obama that's an obama policy literally it's an obama 0.54

00:56:07.200 innovation where they say um you know we're only going to deport the worst of the worst we're going

00:56:11.240 to basically pick up the murderers that the police arrest that incidentally turn out to be illegal

00:56:15.960 that's not really a deportation policy you know so that had been in the works and the reason it was 0.96

00:56:20.860 is because they just looked at the polling and they said we're getting killed with hispanics

00:56:24.520 and we're getting just killed in general.

00:56:26.520 And if we want to win in the midterms, we just got to back off.

00:56:29.300 I think that they thought Iran would be popular. 0.91

00:56:32.200 Okay.

00:56:32.660 Because they looked at Venezuela, which was very popular,

00:56:35.760 and they thought Iran would go the same way.

00:56:37.960 They didn't think Iran would close the strait.

00:56:39.820 You know, they thought they'd be in their lickety-split. 0.96

00:56:42.220 It's over.

00:56:42.960 And I think they were just surprised.

00:56:45.200 We were trying to leverage, you know.

00:56:46.880 Right. 0.75

00:56:47.340 We destroyed, we controlled Venezuela, we controlled Iran. 0.94

00:56:50.420 That's a bunch of your oil right there.

00:56:52.520 And now we got Cuba as well. 0.54

00:56:53.960 which Cuba's known for obviously giving them a bunch of stolen intel. 0.72

00:56:58.500 Cuba's like the black market of our intel. 0.99

00:57:00.560 They steal all our shit and then sell it to our adversaries. 0.99

00:57:02.680 So I think that's what the play was. 1.00

00:57:04.400 He wanted to go and meet Ping with some leverage for the China summit

00:57:07.920 because I remember, when are they supposed to meet?

00:57:10.380 Late March?

00:57:11.100 And then obviously the war dragged on, so he had to meet in like May.

00:57:13.580 They pushed it to May.

00:57:14.280 Yeah, so I think that's what his goal was, but everything just backfired, dude.

00:57:18.400 Everything has backfired.

00:57:19.360 Nothing has worked.

00:57:20.940 You look at the mass deportations.

00:57:22.820 You look at, obviously, the Epstein files. 1.00

00:57:25.320 Shit, we got into all this with the— 0.99

00:57:27.000 Yeah, because the—well, yeah. 0.99

00:57:28.320 No, it's good, though, because this is all going to be used against them for the impeachment.

00:57:31.520 Right.

00:57:31.800 Because that's how we started this conversation is, like, what do you think is going to happen when they're impeachment? 0.97

00:57:34.820 Now that we're talking about it, I'm like, oh, damn, that's a lot of issues here.

00:57:37.200 Yeah, and that's what Iran—you know, Iran knows that we're—we and Israel are up against a deadline. 0.95

00:57:42.760 Netanyahu is up against the October 27th deadline.

00:57:45.320 We are November.

00:57:46.240 So I think it's in their interest to basically push it to the limit.

00:57:50.120 And, you know, that's why they're not in a big rush to make this. Look, if Iran wanted a peace deal, they could have one. Yeah. You know, they would come to the table. But we have no leverage. They're not in any rush to do that because they're winning. And this is they know this is hurting us. And they know that we're on a clock that they are not an economic clock and a political clock that they you know, they really.

00:58:11.100 And you said it earlier. Iran has been under a sanctions regime. We have this little nicky-nack blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. We say we're going to be doing economic damage to them by depriving them of their imports and exports. They don't care. The IRGC runs that country now. What are the people going to do? Protest? They'll just kill them.

00:58:28.480 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 1.00

00:58:29.320 We saw how that happened.

00:58:30.620 What are they going to do if they get mad that they're going to protest?

00:58:33.660 They killed six million of them in January.

00:58:36.060 Yeah, exactly. 0.87

00:58:36.860 And, you know, the other crazy thing also with that whole, like, Hasbara thing is like, oh, yeah, they're over here, like, killing the protests or whatever. 0.91

00:58:41.940 I'm like, yo, like, they're going to side with their government over us. 0.92

00:58:45.540 Like, the only – it's actually – that's another thing that annoyed me. 1.00

00:58:48.300 What are your thoughts on, like, these diaspora – I call them shatards. 1.00

00:58:51.080 Like, these Iranians that, like, live with the stupid lion flag in L.A. or, you know, Europe or whatever. 1.00

00:58:57.480 like yeah we want the shot back it's like you guys are kind of out of touch like you know pbd 1.00

00:59:01.440 talks about this shit like all the time like oh the regime and the mullahs and i'm like okay you 0.95

00:59:05.820 don't have to like the ayatollah whatever but i would argue that the people now are definitely 0.99

00:59:09.200 backing the government more than like you know having the shot come back because it's like

00:59:14.340 they're dropping bombs on them like trump's talking about like we're gonna send them back

00:59:17.180 to the stone age like you know oh yeah they like when we drop bombs on them that just doesn't make

00:59:21.380 sense like i've seen them like protesting getting bombed and then they show yeah we're getting

00:59:25.460 attack it's like they're like not scared to die almost so it's like this is a different culture

00:59:29.660 right and it's just like whenever people say like oh yeah they want us to bomb them or they want us

00:59:33.120 to do a regime change it's like i don't know about that one dude i don't think they like us too much

00:59:36.940 in israel no yeah no way and that that's whole thing is persian society is very insular they're

00:59:41.300 very suspicious and distrusting of outsiders and so it it does literally create the opposite effect 0.88

00:59:46.380 you drop water by the way no i'm all set i'm good but um you know yeah you drop bombs on them

00:59:52.280 am I talking to? Do you hear me over there? Oh yeah, you're right over there. Okay. Yeah,

00:59:58.060 no, you drop bombs on them. It's not going to work. I mean, this idea that you're going to 0.64

01:00:01.300 bomb them and then they're going to like us more because that's what Trump said at Mar-a-Lago when

01:00:05.920 they started the war in February, February 28th, he came out and give that speech and it was kind

01:00:10.920 of like a disturbing speech. He did it with like this black curtain. He was all disheveled, had no

01:00:15.220 necktie on and he comes out and he says, we're going to decimate Iran's military. And when we're 0.60

01:00:20.280 finished bombing the shit out of the country, then the Iranian people are going to come out 1.00

01:00:25.080 and take the government back. They're going to rise up. And you say, how exactly does that 0.99

01:00:29.760 calculation work? You're going to rock their shit, bomb their city. They're going to come 1.00

01:00:34.000 out now and support what is basically openly a puppet regime. You know, it doesn't even make

01:00:38.520 sense. But that's kind of the ill-fated logic that we even had in Iraq. Thanks. I have a full

01:00:45.360 water here but thank you it's elevated you know that was the idea in syria that was the idea in

01:01:26.960 like my mainstream platform now so um and then we'll go over and we have a clip here with john

01:01:31.560 and then we'll get into like some of the actual stuff going on with the conflict but uh but yeah

01:01:36.620 Yeah, dude, I think this is going to be very bad for Trump when it comes to what's going on with the midterms.

01:01:42.940 I mean, I think obviously we're going to lose, but like but it's not just a loss.

01:01:46.860 It's like a loss. And I think they're going to be out for blood.

01:01:49.860 Oh, yeah. Yeah. Well, that's really the whole thing is I said this even a talker.

01:01:54.480 It's one of the few things we agreed on is when Trump does a half measure, even by winning, all you're doing is pissing off the other side.

01:02:01.600 Like, because think about it. If Kamala had won in 2024, she would have no mandate. Like she would have no legitimacy. Everybody would think the election was rigged. Even Democrats wouldn't like her because they believe that she was basically a usurper. You know, she she didn't even win the Iowa caucus.

01:02:17.280 She didn't make it to the Iowa caucus in 2020. She bowed out before even the first race. So she would be looked at as like this puppet who was installed, not popular, not legitimate, no mandate. And and the culture had shifted to the right under Biden.

01:02:33.840 Think about under Joe Biden. People need to literally just get this through their heads. It's not always a bad thing when the enemy is in charge. Under Biden, Elon bought Twitter. Censorship got better. Zuckerberg moved to the right. You know, he got his afro. He got his chain. He's talking about his wakeboarding on the 4th of July. What's more, it's like wokeism basically died under Biden. You had fuck Joe Biden, go viral. The culture moved to the right. We benefited from that.

01:03:02.680 And why? Because when you're in the opposition, you get so much more leeway when you're in power.

01:03:07.880 The pressure is on. You got to be competent. You got to be effective.

01:03:11.700 You got to present a positive vision and you have to deal with all the contradictions of governing. 0.67

01:03:16.500 You know, you're pro-Palestine, but you got to deal with Israel.

01:03:19.260 Biden was getting squeezed to the benefit of the right.

01:03:21.740 Think about how much more powerful the right got from 2020 to 2024.

01:03:25.940 Yeah, so much more powerful. And if the Democrats had stayed in, they would have been flaccid.

01:03:30.460 Now that Democrats are looking very strong in 2028, they're coming back with a vengeance because everyone's pissed at Trump.

01:03:37.640 Everyone's got a reason from the Massey stuff to the Epstein files, Iran, the bureaucratic incompetence slash corruption, every way the inflation, every way you cut it.

01:03:50.120 The Democrats are going to be empowered by being negative.

01:03:52.640 And now that we've had four years of Trump basically messing everything up, now they're going to come back with like literally with a vengeance and they're going to have a mandate.

01:04:00.900 You know, it's going to be like Zoran Mamdani instead of, you know, lame Kamala.

01:04:05.380 It's going to be somebody more hardcore.

01:04:07.240 He's he's he's reinvigorating the Democrat Party.

01:04:10.000 And it's actually like when he won mayor, I was like, yeah, this guy's going to be he's going to he's going to revolutionize the Democrat Party.

01:04:17.200 They're going to move from your establishment Democrats, like, you know, a Chuck Schumer over to or Hillary Obama.

01:04:23.520 Now they're going to go into socialism. And that's what we're seeing.

01:04:26.020 You know, it's like our Biden. Yeah. You know, in the sense that, right, because Biden is old.

01:04:32.260 Biden is old and demented and, you know, and weak and incompetent. 0.98

01:04:37.140 And, you know, what by putting him in and he's a joke, they supercharge the right wing. 0.99

01:04:41.600 Trump is having the same effect. He's old, demented, incompetent. 1.00

01:04:45.260 he's tapped like there's nothing new coming out of the MAGA movement. It's the movement's basically 0.99

01:04:49.940 over. It's super corrupt, super obviously corrupt. It's having the same effect. It's super charging

01:04:55.140 the left. And here's the problem is like, OK, so there's clearly an appetite for like younger,

01:05:00.220 energetic, populist leadership from outside the system. And now the left is basically going to

01:05:06.180 benefit from this advantage of coming in from the outside. Like in 28, they get to be the outsiders

01:05:11.740 that say, oh, look, are you fatigued with Trump?

01:05:14.640 Are you fatigued with the Republican Party?

01:05:16.380 We have the young offering.

01:05:18.060 We have the young, energetic, Israel-critical, anti-establishment, economically populist

01:05:23.440 offering.

01:05:24.440 They actually are in the advantage by being the challenger this time around.

01:05:28.400 And I think that I'm very insistent upon this.

01:05:31.840 If Kamala had won, we would be in a stronger position in 28 than we are now.

01:05:35.900 No, we would be.

01:05:36.640 And let me actually add to it, because as you were talking about the left getting stronger,

01:05:40.900 You're right.

01:05:41.940 Look at these No Kings protests.

01:05:43.720 Dude, thousands upon thousands of people.

01:05:46.140 Look at Antifa.

01:05:46.880 They're becoming more violent.

01:05:48.040 They're acting crazier.

01:05:49.340 They're actually like, in New Jersey, they were protesting against ICE for weeks in front of the thing.

01:05:54.020 Like, oh, there's no immense things here.

01:05:55.600 We're going to go ahead and complain in New Jersey.

01:05:57.440 Getting into fights.

01:05:59.200 The BLM has been a bit more active with them protesting.

01:06:03.540 Look at what happened with Carmelo Anthony, right?

01:06:06.500 And then also with Antifa, I've been saying this forever.

01:06:13.080 It's crazy to me how it took Charlie Kirk getting shot for the Trump administration to finally take Antifa seriously and make them a terrorist organization.

01:06:20.060 I'm still waiting for them to make BLM a terrorist organization.

01:06:22.440 They should make that organization as well.

01:06:25.880 And yeah, man, they've just been out radical.

01:06:28.560 And then it's like the left already is totally cool with protesting, hitting the streets, the Free Palestine Movement.

01:06:33.860 Look at what they're doing.

01:06:34.380 They're protesting every other day.

01:06:35.720 in New York City.

01:06:37.080 So it's like, you're right, dude,

01:06:38.580 they are getting more powerful.

01:06:39.860 Like, you look at all the...

01:06:41.740 They're pissed.

01:06:42.940 And then, like you said yesterday,

01:06:44.240 I did not know that they were able

01:06:45.840 to knock on 1.8 million doors.

01:06:48.240 Yeah.

01:06:49.140 Well, and...

01:06:49.760 That's insane.

01:06:50.720 Think about...

01:06:51.580 For a mayor.

01:06:52.740 Yeah.

01:06:53.220 For a mayor.

01:06:55.300 To be fair, though,

01:06:56.120 that's like hyper-left New York.

01:06:57.980 They're all out there.

01:06:58.860 Sure, sure.

01:06:59.160 But it does demonstrate the energy.

01:07:01.400 And, you know, when it comes to Trump,

01:07:03.360 for me...

01:07:04.360 Are we on kick, guys?

01:07:05.720 Get off everything.

01:07:06.480 YouTube. 0.83

01:07:06.760 Yeah, guys, come on over to kick.

01:07:07.820 Kick.com slash Mario Gaines X.

01:07:09.080 We're getting off everywhere except for kick.

01:07:11.160 And then you can keep the rumble up, too.

01:07:12.340 That's fine.

01:07:13.180 Sorry.

01:07:13.500 Go ahead.

01:07:13.800 The barometer for me is like the podcast bros.

01:07:17.600 Joe Rogan, Tim Dillon, Theo Vaughn, these kinds of guys like that.

01:07:21.160 That kind of gives you an insight into the mind of maybe like a normie, like average person.

01:07:24.940 If Trump has lost Rogan and Tim Dillon and these guys, you know, then what's your constituency going to be in 2028?

01:07:32.280 It isn't there.

01:07:32.860 And I think there's going to be an appetite for like a left winger. I don't even think they'll be that radical, but they're going to promise like economic populism back to domestic stuff. It's going to be just enough. And like if Trump were going to be successful, to your point about Antifa, the only the only way that Trump would have been effective and worth it for him to hold office these four years is if he did a few things like one.

01:07:55.940 he should be protecting right-wingers on social media and in banking.

01:08:00.380 That's the move.

01:08:01.580 How do you ensure that the right-wing will even exist and get more radical?

01:08:05.980 You make sure they don't get banned on social media ever again.

01:08:08.640 He tried with this.

01:08:09.340 He did an executive order on freedom of speech or whatever, but it's done nothing.

01:08:13.300 You need legislation, and they should have done that,

01:08:15.860 and they should have done something against debanking,

01:08:18.000 and they should have found a way to get right-wing people a sinecure in government.

01:08:21.540 All these left-wing activists are funded by NGOs through the State Department.

01:08:25.200 like, you know, you've got National Endowment for Democracy and stuff like that.

01:08:29.880 All the NGOs, that's basically a funnel to get that money into left-wing activist organizations.

01:08:35.020 Like Atlantic Council.

01:08:36.040 Atlantic Council is funded by the military.

01:08:37.960 They pay guys like Jared Holt to call me a white nationalist on Twitter.

01:08:41.420 It's like, so you should be creating institutions to be a sinecure

01:08:44.740 and actually incubate the far right in the way that the far left has been incubated by the State Department.

01:08:49.800 Yep, that's the poor Hassan Piker.

01:08:52.300 He's out here doing interviews with Mom Donnie and everything,

01:08:54.620 and he's as far left as you want, you know, crazy far left, they support him still.

01:08:58.500 Yeah, yeah, exactly.

01:08:59.700 No censorship, nothing.

01:09:00.780 So they should have gotten rid of the censorship, the debanking.

01:09:03.620 They should have been funding the right wing.

01:09:05.000 And then on the other side, they should have been breaking the back of the left wing institutions,

01:09:08.920 breaking the back of Antifa, their organization networks.

01:09:13.100 They should have been going after, you know, arguably some of the left wing billionaires,

01:09:16.320 the foreign financing for this stuff.

01:09:17.920 That should have been the move.

01:09:19.100 But, you know, it's like Trump just doesn't think like, you know, getting back to it,

01:09:22.780 he's just not a political mind.

01:09:24.180 He's a business mind. So for him, it's like, you know, can you point to some policy wins? Sure. OK. Yeah. They got rid of some of the DEI. OK, great. You know, they closed the border. That's fine. Is that actually going to change the country? No. Does it change our political prospects? No. Those are the big ones. So that's why Trump's a total failure.

01:09:43.540 Yeah. 1.00

01:09:43.960 Damn. 1.00

01:09:44.440 Yeah. 0.99

01:09:44.720 So let's talk real quick about John Bolton here because he got found guilty.

01:09:51.000 And this is yesterday.

01:09:53.680 So John Bolton is now a felon after pleading guilty to unlawful retention of national defense information.

01:09:57.700 He and his mustache have agreed to a $2.25 million fine, face up to 60 months of prison, and forfeit his pension.

01:10:04.420 Let's play a little bit of it real quick, and then we'll kind of react.

01:10:07.560 So this is, I guess, probably someone I'm assuming at the DOJ, probably U.S. attorney.

01:10:11.300 This morning, just moments ago, John Robert Bolton II pled guilty in federal court to

01:10:18.380 the unlawful retention of national defense information.

01:10:22.980 According to the terms of the plea agreement, Mr. Bolton faces a maximum sentence of up

01:10:28.540 to five years in prison, followed by a term of up to three years of supervised release.

01:10:36.260 He will also pay a fine of $2.25 million and will forfeit his pension under the Hiss Act.

01:10:46.820 As national security advisor to the president of the United States.

01:10:50.400 He's going to talk about how he had access to some of the most classified stuff.

01:10:54.180 So what are your thoughts on that?

01:10:56.020 Obviously, John Bolton is like, you know, you want to talk about swamp creature.

01:10:59.700 That is a swamp creature for real.

01:11:01.840 Yeah.

01:11:02.220 Yeah.

01:11:02.620 Yeah.

01:11:02.840 No, it's good.

01:11:03.400 I mean, he's like the archetypal neocon.

01:11:05.860 And he's in favor of the architect of all these wars. 0.82

01:11:09.220 So it's, you know, it's good that they're going after him, but it's just like it's just not enough.

01:11:13.160 He was critical in the Iraq war.

01:11:14.700 Yeah, very.

01:11:15.260 He's, you know, he is like the legendary synonymous with neoconservatism, basically.

01:11:20.980 He was in the first Trump admin, though.

01:11:22.420 They brought him in in, what, May or June 2018.

01:11:25.160 Why did Trump get rid of him?

01:11:27.220 I think insubordination.

01:11:28.920 Okay.

01:11:29.460 Yeah, because he was going against some of the, like, he wasn't in favor of the withdrawal from Syria and some of the other stuff.

01:11:34.380 But, you know, they brought Bolton in. Bolton was actually the architect of our Venezuela policy, maximum pressure campaign against Venezuela, which is what created the refugee crisis, which is why they're all fucking here. 1.00

01:11:45.160 Why they're here, yeah. 1.00

01:11:45.900 Because they basically—

01:11:47.660 On TPS or, yeah, temporary protective status.

01:11:49.620 Yeah, yeah, because they—and Trump did that. You know, they destroyed Venezuela's economy, thinking the country would collapse.

01:11:55.840 All the people fled here, and then one of Trump's last acts as president was to give them TPS so they could stay here.

01:12:02.040 And then they poured into under Biden.

01:12:03.320 A lot of people don't talk about that.

01:12:06.180 I said that to Crowder.

01:12:07.020 I don't even think Crowder knew that because they all want to talk about, oh, Biden let in these 12.

01:12:11.340 They never know how the one hand washes the other, you know, because they say Biden let in 12 million people.

01:12:16.940 It was driven by Venezuela.

01:12:18.620 They were maybe three to four million of those.

01:12:20.840 Why were they leaving?

01:12:22.060 Trump destroyed their economy.

01:12:23.260 Why were they allowed to stay here?

01:12:24.340 Trump gave them TPS.

01:12:25.480 It's like, so, yeah, Biden didn't repel them.

01:12:28.800 But who drove them here and let them stay, incentivized them to stay?

01:12:32.300 Trump.

01:12:33.120 Trump and his guy, Bolton, and then Bolton went and ratted on him.

01:12:37.520 Now we're chasing him.

01:12:39.080 This is just like the futility of Trumpism.

01:12:41.700 You hire someone like Bolton.

01:12:43.740 He learns all your secrets, publishes them in a book, and now we're going to chase him.

01:12:47.400 It's like, when are you going to charge Obama?

01:12:49.580 Charge Obama.

01:12:50.480 Didn't Tulsi Gabbard do a press conference last year about how Obama illegally spied on the Trump campaign with the FISA warrants?

01:12:57.700 Whatever happened to that?

01:12:58.500 Yeah. You know, but this is this is governing by press conference where Trump is going to put out a press release and a press conference and they're going to make these big pronouncements like she did last year.

01:13:08.840 Well, at DNI, we investigated Obama. He broke the law. Then where's the fucking indictment then? You know, don't give me a press release. Do it. Put him in jail. Why not? They charge Trump.

01:13:20.020 You know, people say that would be unprecedented.

01:13:22.320 It's not.

01:13:23.160 They went after Trump.

01:13:24.360 How many years were they going to send him up for?

01:13:26.660 Over 100 years?

01:13:27.660 Oh, dude.

01:13:28.180 Across these different cases?

01:13:29.480 116 years?

01:13:30.260 He was going to be cooked.

01:13:31.320 And they raided his house, Mar-a-Lago.

01:13:33.940 And now they want, you know, so I want to see Obama go to jail.

01:13:37.020 I want to see Hillary Clinton go to jail.

01:13:39.020 I want to see Fauci go to jail.

01:13:40.800 What happened to that?

01:13:41.800 You saw that?

01:13:42.400 So Tulsi Drop, what's your thoughts on her talking about how Fauci was involved with the whole COVID thing

01:13:47.960 and how he kind of, you know, with the, with the, yeah, covered up the origins of it.

01:13:52.300 You know, once again, it's like, show me the money, man.

01:13:54.700 Like where's, okay.

01:13:55.600 He lied about it.

01:13:56.460 Then, then charge him, then indict him.

01:13:58.480 But that's the thing.

01:13:59.400 I mean, ironically, all the people, maybe not ironic, that's the wrong word for it,

01:14:03.240 but Trump is only going after his like personal enemies.

01:14:06.320 The people like wrote books about him.

01:14:08.160 The people he like doesn't, you know, these people like James Comey,

01:14:11.580 how much power does James Comey really have?

01:14:13.880 And symbolically, I mean, what does James Comey really represent?

01:14:16.540 86 like that which that was so so lame like he went after him for that thing with the instagram

01:14:20.780 post i get it like because look a part of me is like i understand because dude trump was in a

01:14:26.460 really bad spot um like 22 23 like um and i even for me like i remember i uh the case that worried

01:14:33.540 me the most because at the end of the day like i think me and you both like we might be pissed

01:14:37.580 off with our own war whatever but we like donald trump we thought he's hilarious whatever he's i

01:14:41.020 think he's the most entertaining president of all time the thing that had me concerned was a

01:14:44.660 classified document case when they went to mar-a-lago and they found all those like documents

01:14:48.720 there and they're like was it classified is not classified can he declassify them and the thing

01:14:53.100 that was i was like in my head i was like no he's going to be cooked is because ndi which is exactly

01:14:57.220 what they got with john bolton it doesn't matter how it's classified if it's military information

01:15:00.720 it's national defense information cooked it doesn't matter what the classification is so

01:15:04.660 they had him dead to rights and i knew that this guy um jack smith was not going to let up right

01:15:10.320 Doreen Jack Smith

01:15:12.220 so that was the case

01:15:14.960 that I was like this is bad

01:15:16.180 the other stuff was like you know the Georgia

01:15:18.720 Rico I think that was just 1.00

01:15:19.920 oh my god the black bitch what's her name 1.00

01:15:21.980 the black woman the DA 1.00

01:15:24.380 the district attorney for that county

01:15:26.340 I don't remember 0.65

01:15:27.520 out of Georgia someone's going to put her name here 0.98

01:15:30.560 she went after Young Thug as well

01:15:32.520 made a very similar Rico case against Young Thug

01:15:34.860 and the YSL

01:15:35.760 she went after Trump 1.00

01:15:38.720 for the georgia rico uh with like voter fraud or whatever and then obviously uh washington dc for 0.98

01:15:43.220 like insurrection was it fanny willis yes yes yes she was like fucking her other attorney yes 0.98

01:15:48.800 um so she obviously had her political ambitions but like the the south florida document case bro 0.89

01:15:54.140 i think was the the most dangerous one for sure and that he would have got found guilty on that

01:15:57.940 one for sure well and to me it's just like why i would love nothing more than to see the obamas

01:16:03.860 get dragged through the mud because they treat obama like he's a saint they treat michelle obama 0.99

01:16:09.220 like she's a saint and they're fucking criminals very pompous just like the trumps so arrogant so 1.00

01:16:13.980 pompous and so much of their power is in this idea that they represented like a better time they were 1.00

01:16:19.880 the adults in the room and you know they obama is a saint you know the sainted obama so cerebral

01:16:27.520 and so you know whatever mature and so to see that and you know they got their netflix deal

01:16:33.160 and they're producing movies now

01:16:34.660 and they had their thing at the library.

01:16:36.560 Yeah, just opened up.

01:16:37.660 The library just opened up.

01:16:38.740 You know, all these criminals. 0.74

01:16:39.880 I would love to see nothing more. 0.98

01:16:41.400 Trump should have launched a strike

01:16:43.060 on all the former presidents.

01:16:44.820 Should have been like Bush, Clinton, Obama.

01:16:47.940 Wouldn't that have been something? 1.00

01:16:49.100 And that's the kind of shit that we voted for Trump 1.00

01:16:51.660 the first time to get. 1.00

01:16:53.320 It's not like these political bullshit victories, 0.98

01:16:56.100 but like real accountability. 1.00

01:16:58.320 End the wars, put these people in jail.

01:17:01.080 You never get it.

01:17:01.900 You know, let me get your take on this. 0.99

01:17:04.460 I always thought that, like, the Obamas were responsible for far more than just, like, you know, the political crap. 0.96

01:17:13.260 Like, I think they brought about a very negative cultural change in America. 0.98

01:17:17.060 Oh, yeah. 1.00

01:17:17.500 Like, I think the fact that we have now with the transgenderism, you know, started with gay marriage. 0.97

01:17:23.700 The BLM bullshit that we're dealing with now started with, you know, during the Obama era. 0.99

01:17:27.180 A lot of this wokeism that we're dealing with now that's at a ridiculous level, it started with him. 0.98

01:17:34.160 So I think they're responsible for a lot of the cultural issues that are just, you know, obviously evolved and become significantly worse.

01:17:40.460 What's your thoughts on that?

01:17:41.800 Yeah, the Obamas wrecked America.

01:17:44.260 It all originated with them.

01:17:45.960 And people don't even realize Obama was pretty conservative in 2008.

01:17:49.780 He won the state of Indiana.

01:17:51.140 He was against gay marriage.

01:17:52.720 Do people remember that? 0.96

01:17:53.700 He was in favor of the auto unions. 0.52

01:17:55.200 Like Obama did not run as this race communist progressive, which is what he eventually became. 0.68

01:18:01.620 And and yeah, you're right. 0.52

01:18:02.820 I mean, it started with Trayvon Martin and, you know, they were very pro-gay and all the rest of it. 0.67

01:18:07.440 So, yeah, it's it's a huge part of the problem.

01:18:10.240 Sam Francis shortly before he died, he basically said once Obama won the 2012 election, like America's over.

01:18:16.740 That was it. So, yeah.

01:18:19.140 And they need to be held accountable for that.

01:18:21.060 But you're never going to see it.

01:18:22.540 That's what Trump should have done.

01:18:23.820 But, you know, no way.

01:18:25.200 Yeah. And I think for Trump, it's just been more about like, you know, competing against him, like trying to get a better deal, trying to be a better president.

01:18:30.900 I think you know what it is? I think it was a 2011 when they had the White House Correspondents Dinner.

01:18:36.380 They say all the time that that was when, like, Trump said, I'm going to run and I'm going to fucking go against this guy. 0.96

01:18:41.140 He like he roasted him the whole night like he was just making fun of him. 0.94

01:18:44.080 And I think that was the night that they were actually getting bin Laden. 0.92

01:18:48.280 Yeah. Yeah. I think it was right around that night that he was making fun of Trump and they were running the operation for for getting bin Laden. 0.92

01:18:55.200 And I mean, I don't know if that's the exactly thing, but a lot of people say like that's kind of when Trump said, I'm going to fucking run and get this guy.

01:19:01.260 Yeah, that was awesome that you ever see that video where he's just sitting there stewing. 0.93

01:19:05.000 Oh, yeah.

01:19:05.280 He's so pissed.

01:19:06.420 Obama goes, I thought he was going to run as a joke.

01:19:08.580 Yeah.

01:19:09.460 Or no, that was Seth Meyers.

01:19:10.940 Obama said something like.

01:19:12.500 See if you can pull it up real quick.

01:19:13.840 Oh, that's so good.

01:19:14.900 White House Correspondents Dinner, like 2011.

01:19:17.840 And yeah, he's just like making fun of Trump.

01:19:19.640 He's like just cooking him the whole time and he was pissed.

01:19:21.920 Sorry.

01:19:22.140 Yeah. He said something like, you know, Trump has to make these decisions like, are we going to fire meatloaf or Gary Busey? Those are the decisions. Keep me up at night. He's just totally making fun of Trump. And you see Trump is like seething.

01:19:36.320 Yeah. And honestly, Trump will always have aura for that. This idea that they're just like that Obama made fun of him. So his vengeance was to like become the president. That's insane. That's a big part of the reason. You make fun of me. Okay. I'll take over the world. And he won. He won. He won. Like I remember when he won. I was so like no one thought he was going to win. Yeah. It's what he's 16. Hillary had all these.

01:20:05.520 like i think she had like a book ready and like the newspaper was ready whatever magazines and 0.97

01:20:09.920 it's like she lost and she's like what the fuck like no one thought he was gonna win i didn't 0.99

01:20:14.100 think with him he was even surprised like oh shit i won i gotta be president yeah that's what they 1.00

01:20:18.140 say you know that he didn't even think he was gonna win uh pull it up real quick this shit is 0.99

01:20:22.420 hilarious like uh yeah because i'm almost certain this is when like um when they were going to get 0.97

01:20:27.580 osama oh yeah yeah that's definitely it

01:20:32.440 is here tonight now i know that he's taken some flack lately but no one is happier no one is

01:20:44.080 prouder to put this birth certificate matter to rest to ban the donald and that's because he can

01:20:49.180 finally get back to focusing on the issues that matter like did we fake the moon landing

01:20:57.060 what really happened in Roswell

01:21:02.080 and where are Biggie and Tupac

01:21:06.040 all kidding aside

01:21:09.680 obviously we all know about

01:21:11.080 your credentials and breadth of experience

01:21:13.780 for example

01:21:17.980 no seriously just recently

01:21:20.820 in an episode of Celebrity Apprentice

01:21:23.080 at the steakhouse

01:21:25.860 the men's cooking team

01:21:28.600 did not impress the judges

01:21:31.060 from Omaha Steaks

01:21:32.060 and there was a lot of blame

01:21:33.100 to go around

01:21:33.780 but you Mr. Trump

01:21:35.280 recognized that the real problem

01:21:37.240 was a lack of leadership

01:21:38.680 and so ultimately

01:21:40.280 you didn't blame

01:21:41.380 Little John or Meat Loaf

01:21:43.580 you fired Gary Busey

01:21:47.140 and these are the kind of decisions

01:21:51.140 that would keep me up at night

01:21:52.260 well handled sir

01:21:56.360 well handled

01:21:59.120 say what you will about

01:22:02.000 Mr. Trump he certainly would bring

01:22:04.260 some change to the White House

01:22:05.980 and see what we've got

01:22:08.260 up there

01:22:08.640 he's not laughing

01:22:21.920 Donald Trump is here tonight.

01:22:24.860 No, I know that.

01:22:25.780 He had the same exact face the whole time, just like.

01:22:28.560 Yeah, no, not laughing at all, which is so, because he hated Obama. 0.92

01:22:33.200 He thinks Obama's a punk.

01:22:34.640 Yeah, and not only that, you know, now I'm remembering why Obama went so viciously at him.

01:22:39.980 Trump would always say, show us your birther thing.

01:22:41.720 The birther thing, yeah, because Trump was teasing a run in 2012.

01:22:45.220 Yeah.

01:22:45.500 And that's how he got in the news cycle saying Obama wasn't born here.

01:22:49.140 And that's what made the old.

01:22:50.040 And what's funny, too, about that is that the Clintons created that when the Clintons run against Obama in the 08 primary.

01:22:57.040 That's where that came from.

01:22:58.560 He was born in Kenya and he's not even he can't even be president.

01:23:01.100 Yeah, that's a big reason why Hillary Clinton didn't get in the cabinet until later, because Michelle Obama in particular had this big grudge.

01:23:08.620 I think it might have even been like Sidney Blumenthal or like somebody who was involved in cooking that one up.

01:23:13.980 There's like a lot of like Democrat bad blood because it originated with the Clintons because they're vicious.

01:23:19.800 Oh, man.

01:23:20.380 Yeah.

01:23:20.720 I forgot about that. 1.00

01:23:21.400 Yeah, because she beat or he beat her out in the primary.

01:23:24.920 And but yeah, but that, you know, these these new school guys, these these nephews, they don't even remember that.

01:23:31.540 They don't remember the birther thing.

01:23:32.920 They don't remember, you know, Trump's because, you know, back in those days, it was super viral in the early Internet when Trump said Obama wasn't born here.

01:23:40.220 Oh, yeah. 0.97

01:23:40.540 So Obama's hated him, and then they motherfucked him on the White House thing. 0.87

01:23:44.280 There was a couple things that Trump would viciously attack him on. 0.95

01:23:46.860 He would attack him on the birth certificate.

01:23:48.120 He shouldn't be president.

01:23:48.840 And then he would also attack him a lot on the Middle Eastern foreign policy.

01:23:53.480 Yeah, Benghazi.

01:23:54.240 He would always say, oh, yeah, Benghazi failure, that was a big one.

01:23:56.820 And then also he would say, Obama's going to drag us into a war with Iran. 0.99

01:24:00.160 This deal sucks. 1.00

01:24:01.100 It stinks. 1.00

01:24:01.680 Which is true.

01:24:02.360 People say all the time, well, Trump has always been critical of the Iran deal.

01:24:04.900 He's always been hard on Iran. 0.93

01:24:06.420 True.

01:24:07.120 But a lot of his tweets were, we don't want war with Iran, and Obama's going to get us into war with Iran. 0.71

01:24:11.440 Right.

01:24:11.800 And then fast forward, what, 15 years later, and he's the one getting us into war with Iran. 0.78

01:24:16.360 Yeah. 0.99

01:24:16.500 And it's just like, what the fuck is going on? 0.99

01:24:18.040 So oriful, though. 0.98

01:24:19.000 Because that clip was funny, but then to people juxtapose that clip with Trump being inaugurated in 2016 and Obama sitting in the audience, that is actually legendary.

01:24:32.520 That's why we love Trump, or did.

01:24:34.100 Can you describe, because I don't think people understand, people might be like, Myron, why is that such a big deal?

01:24:39.880 Can you tell them how much Trump hates getting made fun of?

01:24:44.360 Yeah, I mean, he's obviously got a huge ego, very fragile ego.

01:24:49.660 So that stuff really does get to him.

01:24:51.640 But I don't know.

01:24:52.620 I think that's overstated how much that really impacted.

01:24:55.080 Yeah, because he was talking about running for president for like 30 years.

01:24:59.080 He's going to run for the Reform Party nomination, I think, in 2000.

01:25:01.940 And he did actually something in New Hampshire, I think, in 1992 or 96, if I'm not mistaken.

01:25:09.400 They they set up some like, yeah, because, you know, back in 16, when he was originally running, I was like a big Trump guy and knew everything.

01:25:17.040 Yeah. So we did something in New Hampshire, teasing a Republican run in like the 90s.

01:25:21.120 He did the reform, flirted with the Reform Party run in 2000.

01:25:24.880 That's why he called Buchanan a Hitler lover.

01:25:26.900 Oh, yeah. Remember that? Yeah.

01:25:28.060 Yeah. Because Buchanan was one of the first people to be a little bit critical of the of our favorite dreidel spinners. Right.

01:25:34.180 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Ninety two. And yeah. So Trump, like he had been flirting with it.

01:25:40.320 It's in the 88 convention, the Republican. I think in 88 they were asking him about it.

01:25:44.820 So he's wanted to be president forever. It's just that to him, I think he always saw that as the ultimate legacy is like, you know,

01:25:52.860 He wanted to go from what his father was doing, which was apartments in Queens, to the Grand Hyatt Hotel.

01:25:59.500 And then he wanted the Trump Tower.

01:26:01.020 And then it was the game show, the celebrity thing.

01:26:03.660 And then I think ultimately he always wanted to be the boss of the country. 0.91

01:26:08.820 But to me, he's just sort of a petty tyrant.

01:26:11.520 He doesn't have that political genius that a Hitler had or a Joseph Stalin had. 0.88

01:26:15.680 He doesn't have that talent. 0.97

01:26:16.720 He's just sort of like a petty tyrant. 0.91

01:26:18.040 Yeah. Yeah. Because it's like he's like because like there's obviously business elements of like a business mindset that will be great as being like a political leader. 0.61

01:26:26.480 But at the same time, there's like things there that like you might not necessarily think about. Right.

01:26:30.760 Because you have to be fairly cerebral and tactical with some of the things that you do politically that he, you know, might not be as refined.

01:26:38.100 He's not an idealist. Yeah. You know, so, yeah. So that's why he was never going to be the guy.

01:26:43.000 But that video is so funny. It almost makes you remember why it's so interesting, because when you contrast the Trump of 2016 from now, you really forget what it was like.

01:26:52.240 Yeah, it's been so long and so much has happened. And then people have grown up under Trump ism that we've like lost touch with what it was really like in 2016.

01:27:00.940 Not only what it was like with like Trump ism in its ascendancy, but also what it was like with the left.

01:27:05.560 I feel like a lot of these younger kids, especially now, you know, kids that are 18 now or kids

01:27:10.720 that grew up under Trump, like they never knew the Obama years.

01:27:14.160 Yeah.

01:27:14.700 It's like a different generation.

01:27:16.440 I remember the Clinton years vividly, like as a kid.

01:27:18.440 Like, that's why like Trump was so shocking to like, because I'm 36, I'm old as hell.

01:27:23.060 Like, it's so shocking because I was like, I remember when like, you know, presidents

01:27:26.200 were super proper and nice and, you know, very presidential, they would say, refined.

01:27:30.640 So this guy comes in and says, we're going to build a wall, you know, and Mexico is going

01:27:34.440 to pay for it. 1.00

01:27:35.020 it was unheard of like what the fuck is going this guy you know we're gonna ban the muslim 1.00

01:27:39.760 countries i was like oh shit like this guy's nuts but it's hilarious so like you know you have like 0.99

01:27:44.580 i'll never forget this um obama and mit romney debating in like 2011 2012 uh for the presidential 0.97

01:27:50.700 uh in the presidential um election they're all polite you know uh you know complimenting each

01:27:56.160 other uh even when obama ran against mccain i remember this old lady well isn't obama a muslim

01:28:01.440 And he was like, no, he's not a Muslim. 0.99

01:28:02.800 He's like defending him and shit. 1.00

01:28:04.160 Like that would never happen nowadays. 0.98

01:28:06.260 Like it's like they would just like bash each other.

01:28:08.080 So like it completely went from like, you know, very posh, boring, you know, politics to like now it's like blood sport.

01:28:15.160 Right.

01:28:15.480 Like Trump is over here saying like they're eating the cats and dogs like during the Kamala Harris debate.

01:28:19.380 It's like it changed like into like entertainment almost.

01:28:21.940 So, yeah.

01:28:22.280 Well, and not only that, but I is the younger people, they just don't remember what it was like in the early 2010s.

01:28:28.740 It was so liberal and so woke.

01:28:31.120 They just like forget the texture of life. Now that Trump is in office, the culture is totally different, like what's acceptable and how far right things have moved.

01:28:39.860 And I almost wonder how positive that is, because because of that amnesia, I feel like that's what makes the pendulum go back in the other direction, because people have kind of gotten acclimated to like the new normal, which is Trumpism and like what's tolerated.

01:28:53.060 And they forget what it was really like in the 2010s, which it was unbearable because it felt like it felt like leftism was just inevitable.

01:29:00.940 Yeah. Everything was going more left forever. You're always going to be surprised about, you know, at first it was the gays and it was the trannies.

01:29:08.560 Then everyone thought it was going to pedophilia. And it felt like that, like kind of momentum. 1.00

01:29:12.520 There's a huge push for interracial marriage, too. Yeah.

01:29:14.740 I don't know if you've noticed, like when Obama came in, there was a huge push for interracial relationships.

01:29:19.540 Like every Netflix show or every TV show, there'd be like interracial couples all the time.

01:29:24.420 It was like a thing. 0.99

01:29:25.260 Well, and it was just always like more feminism, more black, more diversity, more. 1.00

01:29:29.480 It was always going in that direction.

01:29:31.300 And what, you know, to his credit, what people don't maybe on our side give Trump enough credit for is he totally arrested that trend and made it move in the other direction.

01:29:38.360 And things are changing.

01:29:39.860 Because, like, you know, Elon Musk being the most powerful man in the world and being, like, low-key a white nationalist, that's kind of – you know, you think about that.

01:29:47.700 And, you know, even these Tesla drivers, they're getting flipped off all the time. 0.61

01:29:52.820 People drive Teslas, and liberals, like, vandalize the cars, flip them off because they're, like – you know, the guy that runs the number one electric U.S. automaker is, like, a fascist. 0.85

01:30:02.520 It's, like, a white nationalist. 0.81

01:30:03.660 Well, and kind of just objectively is in many ways.

01:30:06.840 And you go, you know, in broad strokes, things have gotten better, and we should work to maintain and push further in that direction.

01:30:14.660 Well, people forget that, like, when Trump first came in, they were firebombing Tesla dealerships.

01:30:19.260 Yeah.

01:30:19.660 Like, yo, they were, like, legitimately firebombing them, like, throw a Molotov cocktails, et cetera.

01:30:24.560 Like, a bunch of people got arrested for terrorism for doing that.

01:30:26.780 That was crazy, yeah.

01:30:27.420 In early 25, when Trump came in. 1.00

01:30:30.300 So I was like, oh, shit. 1.00

01:30:31.620 So, but no, it's just crazy times, man. 1.00

01:30:34.920 Oh, shit. 1.00

01:30:35.220 Okay, let's go into the war. 1.00

01:30:36.360 We went over on a whole thing tangent with the impeachment and everything else.

01:30:40.820 But yeah, no, absolutely insane.

01:30:44.880 So let's go ahead.

01:30:45.480 We can go to rerun.

01:30:47.540 Let's see here.

01:30:49.880 And guys, we're going to do, obviously, a Q&A section on OSS as well.

01:30:54.200 You guys can ask me and Nick a bunch of questions.

01:30:56.100 We'll go over there.

01:30:57.260 Okay, in a little bit.

01:30:58.420 Okay, so IRGC confirms this two hours ago.

01:31:00.740 It's attacks on Kuwait and Bahrain is a retaliation for the earlier U.S. attacks on Iran.

01:31:06.200 So basically, I think what happened was, obviously, the war in Lebanon did not cease. 0.61

01:31:12.040 The Israelis did not pull back.

01:31:13.060 As a matter of fact, they aggravated it by signing this agreement yesterday, which obviously

01:31:16.620 a lot of people got pissed off in Lebanon.

01:31:20.280 Hezbollah people went over to the PM's house and everything else.

01:31:23.980 And then that led to the U.S. striking along the Strait of Hamousa in southern Iran.

01:31:31.400 and then Iran retaliated by hitting bases in Kuwait and Bahrain.

01:31:37.280 And then let's see what else we have here.

01:31:41.020 Initial reports.

01:31:42.660 Should we scroll up a little bit?

01:31:44.180 Refresh it?

01:31:45.580 Like refresh the Twitter page?

01:31:53.340 It confirmed.

01:31:54.220 And then I do have an IRGC statement here.

01:31:57.260 Let me see if I can read it real quick.

01:31:59.080 Okay.

01:31:59.340 so it goes

01:32:00.680 so after they bombed them here's their statement

01:32:03.220 during a joint missile and drone

01:32:05.340 operation between 2 and 3 a.m. today

01:32:07.140 Sunday July 28th your brave sons

01:32:09.180 and the naval and air forces of the Revolutionary Guard

01:32:11.140 launched ballistic missiles and drones at

01:32:12.980 8 vital locations of the American army

01:32:14.980 at Ali Al Salaam

01:32:17.560 Air Base in Kuwait and the 5th fleet

01:32:19.180 in Mina Salman Bahrain

01:32:20.460 destroying them and firmly responding to the recent American

01:32:23.100 aggression the aggressive enemy 0.98

01:32:25.160 which is by nature a breaker of

01:32:26.980 covenants and agreements attacked 5

01:32:28.880 coastal sites belonging to the islamic republic at dawn today under the pretext of confronting

01:32:33.620 the irgc's naval forces against the the violating ship based on the memorandum of understanding

01:32:39.140 signed in islamabad the agreements uh the arrangements for the uh regulating navigation 0.63

01:32:45.480 and the strait of humus are the responsibility of the islamic republic and from now on violating

01:32:49.520 ships will be dealt with more firmly than before and any potential aggression by the enemy under

01:32:55.000 any pretext even if the aggression is directed against unimportant targets as happened last

01:33:00.960 night and tonight will face an overwhelming response in the last paragraph here it says

01:33:05.320 or last sentence the enemy must know that violating the ceasefire is a violation of article one of the

01:33:10.600 memorandum of understanding signed in islamabad and will lead to a complete cessation of operations

01:33:16.240 so um what are your thoughts on that nick um that's the irgc statement yeah so you know

01:33:23.320 Trump's a true social, too, please, guys.

01:33:25.140 So the MOU says that Iran and Oman will jointly manage the strait.

01:33:29.260 Yep.

01:33:29.740 Last week after Switzerland, the Iranian delegation met with the Omanis to work out how they're going to jointly manage it.

01:33:36.420 And what's happened since then is now the Omanis have opened up a route of passage through the strait, hugging their coast.

01:33:43.120 Yes.

01:33:43.440 So the strait goes between Iran and Oman.

01:33:45.620 And what the IRGC said is the only way we're going to let you go through the strait is if you get permission from the IRGC.

01:33:53.100 And what that does is create a precedent where then to get permission, you need to pay money.

01:33:57.660 So Iran said, you're going to go through this lane of passage that we have authorized, that we've opened up.

01:34:03.120 You need to tell us about it. 0.85

01:34:04.260 Well, the Omani said, we're opening up our own lane.

01:34:07.040 Yeah. 0.51

01:34:07.480 And you can go through it.

01:34:08.800 them, right? Because they were supposed to work together to split the revenue and then have one

01:34:14.600 lane that they go through. So the Omanis kind of double-crossed them. 0.98

01:34:17.160 Right. So the Omanis are saying, we're going to let ships go without paying or asking permission.

01:34:22.080 This is why the Iranians are now attacking the shipping. The Iranians started, I think, 1.00

01:34:25.900 on Thursday, Friday, and then today, the past three days, every single day,

01:34:29.780 Iran has been attacking the tankers that are going through that route to deter them from doing that 0.93

01:34:34.300 so that they can monopolize the trade. Because if this trade is opened on the Omani side, 0.89

01:34:38.300 then it's freedom of navigation, and then Iran loses all their leverage.

01:34:41.280 Because then obviously all the shipping is going to go there instead of asking the IRGC,

01:34:45.280 and then they can't charge the toll.

01:34:46.940 So Iran has been attacking the shipping.

01:34:48.940 In retaliation, the U.S. has been bombing Iran's southern coast.

01:34:52.240 And the other thing that they're doing is they're sending a full escort package for one single tanker.

01:34:58.260 There was one single tanker.

01:34:59.780 I don't know if it was destined for Oman or if it originated in Oman,

01:35:02.840 but there's a tanker that went through the strait from Oman,

01:35:05.240 and they had a full package from the U.S. 0.98

01:35:07.180 They had, like, Ospreys and drones and, like, a full air package to escort the ship from Bahrain through the strait, sending a message to the Iranians, like, don't try to fuck with this Omani route anymore. 0.94

01:35:17.800 So the Iranians then retaliated against the U.S., bombing Kuwait, bombing Bahrain. 0.60

01:35:22.980 And now they're saying the MOU is off.

01:35:25.420 They're saying we may just pull out of the thing altogether.

01:35:27.300 And the Council of Juris, the expert council, they came out and said we should have never opened up the strait.

01:35:35.380 They said, we're never going to negotiate the nuclear file and we need a ceasefire in Lebanon.

01:35:39.820 And so now they're saying on that basis of all three of those points, they're going to just pull out of the MOU and then that's it.

01:35:46.700 Which is just, I mean, and then we run out of oil.

01:35:51.500 I don't think people understand like how bad this is.

01:35:53.820 Like, you know, like we discussed before, the reason why, oh, here's Trump right here.

01:35:59.480 This is, I said this recently.

01:36:02.120 Can you make it big on our end?

01:36:03.500 This is a true social post right here for you guys.

01:36:05.180 It says United States aircraft just just struck Iranian missile and drone storage locations and coastal radar sites for violent ceasefire agreement.

01:36:12.820 Again, it is very possible that they will never learn.

01:36:16.000 There may come a point when we are no longer able to be reasonable and will be forced to militarily complete the job that we very successfully started. 0.96

01:36:25.440 If that happens, the Islamic Republic of Iran will no longer exist.

01:36:28.800 President Donald J. Trump.

01:36:30.000 And that was three hours ago.

01:36:31.840 Yeah.

01:36:32.380 So we're in exactly the same situation.

01:36:35.020 What good is the MOU?

01:36:36.940 Because what does the MOU say?

01:36:38.260 Pull up the MOU real quick for us real fast, guys.

01:36:39.880 It says they're opening the strait.

01:36:41.180 Okay, strait's not open.

01:36:42.440 Yeah.

01:36:42.760 They say there's ceasefire in Lebanon.

01:36:44.100 There's no ceasefire in Lebanon.

01:36:45.520 And here it is.

01:36:47.000 So here's the MOU right here.

01:36:49.060 The United States of America and the Islamic Republic and their allies in the current war by sign of the MOU declared the immediate permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon.

01:36:57.500 Also, I find this interesting.

01:36:58.620 What do you think about this, Nick?

01:36:59.640 Remember how they tried to slide in Gaza in there and then they had to change it? 0.87

01:37:03.080 Did they? 0.99

01:37:03.560 They did originally.

01:37:04.440 It was like in some of the earlier drafts that were leaked.

01:37:06.780 And then they made it, then they just made it all fronts.

01:37:08.900 And then they, you know, obviously made it about Lebanon. 0.60

01:37:12.100 And I think the Gaza thing was like, okay, maybe that's asking for too much.

01:37:15.620 I don't think the Iranians were ever asking for that.

01:37:17.920 They did. 1.00

01:37:18.340 They did.

01:37:18.720 I don't remember that.

01:37:19.160 But like they ended up like pulling it back.

01:37:21.680 But like in earlier drafts, because it was like, they were going back and forth a million times.

01:37:24.900 So like they were trying to get Gaza as well.

01:37:27.800 And then they pulled it back.

01:37:28.740 And I know this because, oh man, I forget who it was that I was watching, but there

01:37:35.340 was a lot of people in the Muslim world that were pissed off because Gaza was removed.

01:37:38.960 That's how I know that it was originally in the drafts, and then they took it out for

01:37:42.360 the final.

01:37:42.980 Because that's why they were being so secretive about what's in it, what's not in it.

01:37:46.100 Because they were kind of passing back a draft back and forth, and Gaza was in it, and then

01:37:49.820 they removed it.

01:37:50.580 And that's what pissed a lot of people off.

01:37:51.300 Yeah, because that would never fly. 1.00

01:37:52.380 In the Muslim world, yeah. 1.00

01:37:53.000 Israel would never. 0.99

01:37:53.900 I mean, maybe Lebanon, but never, yeah. 1.00

01:37:56.300 And that's precisely why.

01:37:57.580 Well, I think they just wanted them to not pull out of Gaza, but stop the bombing, is what it was. 0.62

01:38:02.840 But Hamas hasn't disarmed, so they're going to keep attacking. 0.71

01:38:07.080 But that's how I know, because I was watching, I forget the, there was a bunch of Muslims that were pissed off about it. 0.90

01:38:13.800 Because they looked at it like, well, Gaza is the reason that this war started, which allowed for all of this to begin, to give Iran the opportunity that it has now.

01:38:24.120 why would you betray Gaza because Gaza 0.94

01:38:26.420 they look at it like, which I can understand 1.00

01:38:28.580 their grievance, Gaza is the reason why 0.97

01:38:30.560 everyone is against Israel now because of the

01:38:32.500 mass murdering so they looked at it like

01:38:34.160 their suffering and their sacrifice is

01:38:36.540 not being validated because they were the ones

01:38:38.460 that created this

01:38:39.240 the negative press for Israel

01:38:42.300 that's what's going on

01:38:44.160 can we pull it up real quick one more time

01:38:45.800 the final deal will confirm

01:38:50.360 and refrain from the threat

01:38:52.360 against force of each other ensuring the territory

01:38:54.100 integrity and sovereignty of lebanon the final deal confirmed the permanent termination of a

01:38:57.520 war on all fronts and cool lebanon okay so this is what the first point that they're saying that 0.92

01:39:00.780 they violated so uh but you were you were saying earlier um with the shit i was we're talking about 0.96

01:39:09.100 the straight termination um shit i don't remember um but i mean maybe just about the whole situation 0.97

01:39:19.960 that the mou is now i mean what's even the point yeah you know i mean that it's exactly the status 0.94

01:39:25.580 quo from before and and fundamentally it's because they just never agreed on these issues

01:39:30.680 because the disagreement which was at the center of this was if the strait opens it's under what

01:39:37.000 conditions yeah does iran control it or is it freedom of navigation because that was always

01:39:41.360 a sticking point iran said yeah we'll open the strait but you know we're going to charge money

01:39:44.800 and the u.s said no you're not we need freedom of navigation and so apparently you know apparently

01:39:49.900 in the weeks leading up to the MOU, they said, oh, we resolve that. We're going to let Iran 0.75

01:39:54.020 charge a toll. And, you know, the U.S. insisted, no, we're not. And they still are. 0.93

01:39:58.000 So there was no agreement on that. There was no agreement on Lebanon. And then 0.75

01:40:01.340 the Iranians are using these violations as a pretext. So 0.98

01:40:05.760 they're saying, well, since there's no ceasefire in Lebanon, now we don't have to open up

01:40:09.880 the strait. You know, we can bomb shipping if we want to. Since the strait

01:40:13.900 is closed, now the U.S. is going to hit Iran. Now Iran says, well, then we're not going to talk about the nuclear

01:40:17.920 file so you know we're just not anywhere closer to a deal than we were a week ago two weeks ago

01:40:23.960 a year ago it's fundamentally it's the same impasse on every single thing and so now trump says uh you

01:40:30.960 know we're back at square one with the military threats so we're gonna bomb iran if they don't

01:40:35.000 behave and you say well what has changed you know what military option is available now that wasn't 0.93

01:40:40.700 available in april that wasn't available uh you know we threatened to annihilate iranian civilization 0.79

01:40:45.800 What are you going to do? 0.94

01:40:46.480 Take Carg Island, bomb the nuclear, or not the nuclear, the oil refineries and the bridges and the civilian infrastructure, invade the islands and the Strait of Hormuz? 0.51

01:40:56.260 I mean, what realistically are you going to do that wasn't on the table then but is on the table now?

01:41:01.740 You can't.

01:41:02.480 There's nothing you can do.

01:41:03.720 And this is why, for me, I've always wondered where it's going to – I really have no idea where it's going to go. 0.99

01:41:08.900 I really don't because it's like we can't get Iran to change their behavior. 0.95

01:41:13.440 We also can't invade militarily. 0.96

01:41:15.040 So something's got to give here. Either we're going to give Iran everything they want or we're going to get absolutely fucked. Or are we going to go to war? But I mean, that seems that seems like the least likely of all that you're going to see a ground invasion of Iran or, you know, a tactical nuclear weapon or something, because in order for us to have any military options, we would just need to qualitatively escalate in the types of weapons we're willing to use. 0.99

01:41:39.020 You know, what what kind of tactics we're willing to employ. So I just I really don't see how this ends, because it's literally if we want Iran to engage on our terms, it's it's a ground invasion. It's it's an escalation we're not prepared for. On the other hand, if we don't do that, is there any scenario where Iran opens up the strait under our terms? I think the answer is no. And if they don't do that, you know, then the economy completely falls apart. 0.78

01:42:04.000 I remember what it was that I was going to ask you. Can you explain real quick to the audience the reason why the reserves and why this, you know, why that was probably one of the main factors for Trump to pull into, get this deal, even though it was very unfavorable to us in the first place?

01:42:18.000 Yeah. So, you know, it's 20% of the world's oil goes through the Strait of Hormuz. That's been taken offline since February 28th. So, you know, how many months is that? It's all of March, April, May, June. And in order to offset the loss of that supply, the U.S. released hundreds of millions of barrels of oil.

01:42:37.320 And the whole international community did, right? Didn't like us and obviously everyone else like release. Yeah.

01:42:41.660 Yeah, I was about to say that. They coordinated through the, I think, International Energy Association, the release of 400 million barrels of oil. And that's just what they coordinated. China released air reserves. We don't even know because they're not transparent about it. But the whole world dumped their supply. And that's why the price hasn't gone out of control, because they were saying that if the war went on into June, you'd have like $200 per barrel for oil. The only reason that hasn't happened is because we've just been pumping this stuff out. But now we're just running out.

01:43:08.280 There's only 350 million barrels left in the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve.

01:43:12.460 That's enough for like, I don't know, 10 or 20 days or something.

01:43:15.560 It's just not enough.

01:43:16.620 And once that runs out, you're talking about rationing.

01:43:20.020 You're literally talking about energy rationing, where they're going to start to say, you can't buy gas.

01:43:25.160 Or maybe they're talking about like a shutdown.

01:43:27.760 Are we going to use flat cameras to track how much people are driving and ration fuel per person?

01:43:33.020 You start to get into that territory.

01:43:34.440 And, you know, people say, well, the U.S. is an energy exporter.

01:43:37.700 so we don't have to worry about that.

01:43:39.700 But we use more energy than we make.

01:43:42.980 Yeah, please explain that to them.

01:43:43.820 Because people are so, oh, because Trump always says this during interviews.

01:43:46.640 He always says, we make more oil than Saudi Arabia.

01:43:49.040 We make more oil than all these people. 0.89

01:43:50.380 We don't even really need the straight like that.

01:43:52.300 We produce our own. 0.84

01:43:53.400 Now we got Venezuela, et cetera.

01:43:54.900 And I'm just like in my head like, okay, though some of that might be true,

01:43:59.080 it doesn't matter.

01:43:59.760 Can you explain to them why that doesn't matter that we make our own oil

01:44:02.800 and we got Venezuela?

01:44:04.200 And it's like, why still does it change the high prices?

01:44:06.820 Yeah, it all has to. Well, number one, it's just basic like supply and demand.

01:44:11.240 You know, that's the first and foremost is everyone in the world is competing for oil.

01:44:15.580 And so the price system works with that like it does for anything else.

01:44:18.820 And it's down now at 73, but like it's going to go back up, especially with this conflict.

01:44:21.420 Because they haven't priced it in, you know, because the markets, for whatever reason, the markets are behaving irrationally.

01:44:26.480 They are responding to the news.

01:44:28.500 If the headline says the war is over, then they will say, oh, well, oil is going to become plentiful again.

01:44:34.740 So that's reflected in the price.

01:44:36.500 But they don't realize that just because even if the war ended today, it doesn't mean that supply goes back to normal because it takes time for supply to increase again.

01:44:44.980 It takes time to get those ships out of the strait.

01:44:46.960 It's going to take time for them to build confidence to even go through the strait.

01:44:50.260 And then, you know, the tankers are slow.

01:44:52.460 It's going to take them 30 days to get to their destination.

01:44:54.380 So it doesn't just go back to normal automatically.

01:44:57.160 And it's not we're not even there yet.

01:44:59.180 You know, the strait isn't even open still.

01:45:01.060 So, you know, the price seems to be out of touch with the economic reality.

01:45:04.700 But the point is, no matter how much oil the U.S. makes, we're still competing for oil on a global market.

01:45:10.680 It has to do with the type of oil that we are able to refine with our infrastructure, the type of oil that we make, the type of oil other countries make.

01:45:18.880 All of our refining infrastructure on the southeast coast in Texas is built to refine heavy, sour, crude oil that we thought we were going to get from Mexico and Venezuela.

01:45:29.940 That's the type of oil in Mexico and Venezuela in the 1990s.

01:45:32.500 1990s, they thought that was the oil boom. So they built up all this refining infrastructure

01:45:36.680 for that product. The oil that we get from the oil sands from fracking is light and sweet. So

01:45:43.020 we don't have the refining infrastructure to use that. We export that to other countries.

01:45:48.480 And so, you know, this is why even though we have a lot of oil, we're still importing oil.

01:45:52.620 We import the type of oil that we can refine. And so what eventually happens is it turns into a

01:45:57.220 logistical situation where it's like, where are we going to get the type of oil that we need?

01:46:03.120 There's just not going to be enough of it. Yeah. And the infrastructure in Venezuela isn't even

01:46:07.440 built up yet. It's going to take years for them to build that up. When people say, well, we control

01:46:10.620 the oil in Venezuela. All right, great. You got the reserves. Well, guess what? Now you got to

01:46:14.340 create the infrastructure to extract the oil, right? And have it, you know, actually be able

01:46:19.600 to be actually be able to utilize it. Right. I don't think people understand it's going to take

01:46:22.440 a while yeah so i mean it's it's not a good situation at all and uh and our oil is more

01:46:28.440 expensive than other places as well there's like a price discrepancy like you can make the argument

01:46:32.780 that like with the trading was being closed yes it forces countries to buy our oil we're able to

01:46:37.140 kind of enter the market whatever but yeah like you said we don't make enough for everybody on

01:46:41.100 top of what we consume right so it's like what man it's it's a very i don't think people understand

01:46:46.820 like that like um because i got into an argument about this with like tim pool uh and he was like

01:46:51.420 oh yeah trump is is purposely keeping the straight home was closed and i was like no he's not dude

01:46:55.400 no no he's not like he was literally arguing me like saying well it's because he's purposely

01:47:00.820 doing this like 3d or 4d chess keeping the straight clothes so that we can dominate the

01:47:05.460 energy market and he has no intention to open it or keep it to open it up and he's just like

01:47:09.960 feigning diplomacy to get it open i was like no dude that's not what it is like like what like

01:47:15.760 crash the world's energy market to do that and like have america's paying double double for gas

01:47:20.260 like how does it how does that help like well it's always the 5d chess with the trump

01:47:24.720 shells that's all you know it's never as simple as it is there's always some super clever no no

01:47:29.260 trump is the genius mastermind here's how trump can still win and uh you know that's just not the

01:47:35.620 case just like epic levels of cope man yeah um what else do we got here so we got

01:47:41.220 so we got the barrain strikes uh let me see here

01:47:47.640 how you like Miami by the way man love it love the city it's my second home I'm gonna try to

01:47:55.640 get him here chat I'm gonna try to get him to to come to come to Miami and move out here hopefully

01:48:00.220 one day uh let's see here if there's anything else new so Trump threatens uh oh has there been

01:48:06.280 I think there's been some movement as well with with uh Russia Ukraine if I'm not mistaken right

01:48:10.480 But nothing major.

01:48:12.520 I mean, the overall situation is changing, but nothing happened the past 24 hours.

01:48:19.880 So, okay.

01:48:22.960 Let me see here.

01:48:24.640 I'm going to check rerun real quick, see if there's anything else breaking.

01:48:29.440 Oh, I want to ask you about this.

01:48:31.660 What were your thoughts?

01:48:32.560 Because I never got to talk to you about this.

01:48:34.120 Remember when the F-15 got shot down?

01:48:36.120 Yeah, yeah.

01:48:36.640 What are your thoughts on that and what really went down when that happened?

01:48:41.140 Because there's multiple different theories of what they think was going on.

01:48:45.160 It was like maybe a failed black operation where they're trying to get the uranium.

01:48:48.460 And then it ended up having to become a rescue mission because they had this fighter, this weapon system officer that was a colonel that was out there.

01:48:56.180 What are your thoughts on that in general?

01:48:57.720 Yeah. You know, I remember that case where they said that the F-15 was shot down and, you know, one of the pilots was stranded there in the mountains. And then in the end, there were two transport planes that got destroyed over there.

01:49:13.000 And they said that what happened is the transport planes came, I think, not only to get the pilot, but to get the wreckage of the plane or something like that.

01:49:21.220 And they said that the cargo planes came under attack.

01:49:24.400 And then there was this discrepancy about where the planes landed.

01:49:28.040 And they said that it was closer to Iran's nuclear sites than it was to where this guy actually crashed.

01:49:33.340 And they said, how could he have gone hundreds of miles in another direction when he's some solo guy in the mountains of Iran in a totally remote place?

01:49:41.060 So, you know, I don't know.

01:49:42.600 you just never know about things like that. I think, I think that if we were going to go in

01:49:47.100 to get the highly enriched uranium, it wouldn't look like that because the highly enriched

01:49:51.740 uranium, according to the IAEA is in the tunnels at Esfahan and it's deep underground. And so they

01:49:59.500 say that if we're going to go in and get it, we're going to need to bring like excavation

01:50:03.260 equipment, like literally heavy construction equipment where you need to like dig it out.

01:50:07.780 And it's going to be the largest special forces operation in history, like like tens of thousands of troops.

01:50:13.420 And we're going to be literally moving heaven and earth to get to this stuff. 1.00

01:50:17.340 The Iranians can't even get it. And it's their country. 1.00

01:50:19.360 And and then you're talking about coming under fire from within Iran, from drones and missiles and and the IRGC.

01:50:26.560 So I don't I don't think they would seriously do that.

01:50:28.840 And I think the size of the force that went into Iran, probably too small.

01:50:33.500 And if that actually happened, I think Iran would say so, because wouldn't that be a big propaganda victory if the U.S. tried to get the uranium and they failed? 0.72

01:50:41.500 I think so. What I've been told from people is that they were trying to set up a FARP or FARP, whatever, a forward operating location. 0.65

01:50:49.860 They were slowly bringing these little birds, these these these planes that were used for moving equipment.

01:50:55.700 And they were setting up kind of like a clandestine operation to do this.

01:50:58.320 and then what ended up happening was this fighter jet got shot down

01:51:02.520 and they had to shift from doing one of these raids into a rescue mission

01:51:07.880 because I think I was talking about Larry Johnson, I know Aguilar,

01:51:12.140 a couple of these guys were like, why the hell do they have Little Birds here?

01:51:14.780 These are for quick attacks.

01:51:16.840 What's going on for a rescue mission?

01:51:18.700 So the aircraft threw them off and what they were trying to say

01:51:22.100 is that they think that they're establishing this forward operating base

01:51:24.520 to do this assault and they got caught off guard

01:51:27.900 because this fighter jet got shot down,

01:51:29.440 so they had to completely switch the mission

01:51:30.940 into a recovery situation.

01:51:32.660 That's why they had all these unorthodox aircraft in the area

01:51:34.740 and then why there was all these SEALs and Delta guys

01:51:38.360 that were in the area as well,

01:51:39.280 which didn't make sense for a rescue mission.

01:51:40.760 So that's what they were saying. 0.71

01:51:42.920 And then also the other thing was that the Iranians

01:51:45.920 grabbed a military ID or an ID of someone,

01:51:48.940 and it was a woman, a name,

01:51:52.500 and I think it was on her ID or something like that,

01:51:54.740 where she was like a nuclear specialist,

01:51:56.220 someone that deals with

01:51:58.280 or knows how to deal with highly enriched uranium

01:52:00.680 in one of the military components

01:52:02.560 I forget what it was, it was either an ID

01:52:04.080 maybe the job series code or whatever

01:52:06.000 but that's what kind of led them to say

01:52:08.500 okay, it looks like they were

01:52:10.280 getting something going on

01:52:12.300 and this operation got thwarted

01:52:14.400 because this fighter got shot down

01:52:15.720 and then the other thing also that was kind of weird was

01:52:17.560 this guy was like a colonel as a weapon system officer

01:52:20.880 that was also kind of strange

01:52:22.360 so that's another reason why they were like

01:52:23.720 well that's kind of a high rank to be doing that

01:52:25.720 where they attached to this unit

01:52:28.700 and then they got shot down and they had to shift what they were doing.

01:52:31.140 So all these different theories

01:52:32.800 came out as to why

01:52:34.860 but regardless 1.00

01:52:35.680 remember when Trump was talking all this shit 0.99

01:52:38.820 about Cargill and this, Cargill and that 0.99

01:52:40.640 MEU here, MEU that 0.99

01:52:42.300 people were like what the fuck is this? 0.99

01:52:44.080 People were speculating that that was all a diversion 0.99

01:52:46.260 to keep from what he was really trying to do

01:52:48.040 which was try to get this highly enriched uranium.

01:52:50.980 Right. I don't know. I think it's far-fetched

01:52:52.840 only because the Iranians would have every reason 1.00

01:52:55.020 to blow the lid on that, be a big propaganda. 0.90

01:52:57.700 Well, they got in a big firefight as well.

01:52:59.700 They did get in a firefight.

01:53:00.240 But why would they be complicit in the lie?

01:53:02.040 Wouldn't it be better for Iran to say, you know, you try to get the uranium? 0.85

01:53:05.900 They made like a Lego thing on it. 0.99

01:53:07.600 Yeah.

01:53:07.940 Well, you know how they do those like Lego things where they make fun of the United States?

01:53:10.620 Yeah, but that's like from their propaganda ministry.

01:53:12.900 I mean, I feel like they would come out and talk about it and it would be a major humiliation.

01:53:17.840 Like a formal news thing.

01:53:18.780 Yeah, yeah.

01:53:19.420 Fair.

01:53:19.600 um what so okay obviously we're in a very strange situation right now and guys we're

01:53:25.760 going to shift over here to oss very soon read the chats and then answer questions over there

01:53:29.220 um what would you do at this point if you were if you were the president united states man i want

01:53:35.680 to know what would nick fuentes do um if we're in a position that we're in now how the hell would

01:53:42.000 you get out get us out of this or how the hell can we get out of there's there's no way i mean

01:53:45.520 And that's the thing is, like, once you make an error like this, this is a pivotal error, which means there's no putting the genie back in the bottle like that's a fulcrum now.

01:53:55.320 And there's no good options. You know, like we talked about, you can let Iran take control over the trade and you can, you know, what are you even going to do about Lebanon? 0.88

01:54:04.060 Nothing you do about Lebanon. Israel's not going to stop. Nothing you do to make them stop. 0.72

01:54:07.700 And, you know, we could we could try. They're talking about selling F-35s to Turkey and they're talking to Netanyahu's political opponents.

01:54:15.360 And I think all that is signaling. I think all that's bullshit. I don't think any of that's real. 0.99

01:54:19.540 They're not really trying to piss off Israel. They're saying those things to make Israel scared.

01:54:24.560 But Netanyahu's been around for 30 years. You know, you can't scare this guy.

01:54:29.100 And he runs our shit. He runs America. Larry Ellison gave 60 million to one of Trump's PACs. 1.00

01:54:35.340 And he's in bed with Netanyahu.

01:54:36.860 You know what I mean?

01:54:37.340 And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

01:54:39.380 So about TikTok and everything.

01:54:40.700 Right.

01:54:41.120 So I don't think that that means anything. 0.84

01:54:45.420 We're not going to get Israel over their dead body. 0.62

01:54:48.020 Are they going to withdraw from Lebanon? 0.82

01:54:49.660 If you don't have that, Iran's not going to make peace. 0.56

01:54:52.180 Iran's not going to go back to the pre-war status quo on the strait.

01:54:55.840 They're not going to talk about the nukes.

01:54:58.120 So, I mean, even if you gave them everything that we could, I still don't think you have a deal.

01:55:03.660 There's also no military options either.

01:55:06.040 Honestly, what can you do?

01:55:07.700 Are you going to invade Iran?

01:55:09.420 No shot.

01:55:10.840 Are you going to open the strait by force?

01:55:13.200 How? 0.59

01:55:13.980 Destroy all their drones and missiles?

01:55:15.840 You can't.

01:55:16.760 They're too small, too remote, too cheap, too mobile.

01:55:20.300 There's too many of them.

01:55:21.260 They're making more of them already.

01:55:22.580 Too underground.

01:55:23.320 Can't be done, yeah.

01:55:24.440 So there's just really no good option.

01:55:27.000 And what is happening is that the U.S. is just simply losing this war. 0.98

01:55:32.060 Iran is just destroying us right now. 0.99

01:55:34.560 And they know exactly what they're doing. 1.00

01:55:36.120 They're going to make it as painful as possible.

01:55:38.400 And so I think that, you know, we are just in the situation where we're in this like

01:55:41.960 submission hold and we can't tap out, you know, like we're being strangled to death

01:55:45.780 and there's no way to tap out.

01:55:46.840 So I really, you know, people are always saying like Joe Kent says, well, we should

01:55:51.260 just leave.

01:55:52.560 Maybe that's the only thing we can do is to literally just pack it up. 0.99

01:55:56.580 Just, you know, say, all right, uncle, OK, Iran's going to control the strait. 0.83

01:56:00.380 and these commercial ships are going to have to maybe pay money. 0.82

01:56:05.080 It'd be cheaper than what we're doing now,

01:56:06.840 which is escorting the commercial ships through.

01:56:08.700 Just pay the fine.

01:56:09.640 It's yours now.

01:56:10.680 That's the cost of it.

01:56:11.720 I mean, maybe it's literally as simple as

01:56:13.400 we're just going to have to evacuate our bases in the Middle East, 0.61

01:56:16.680 bring the carriers home, pay Iran our reparations. 0.87

01:56:19.680 We might literally just have to give them the whole thing. 0.86

01:56:23.340 And I think that may be the only way out at this point.

01:56:25.520 It's just like an unconditional U.S. surrender.

01:56:28.640 And people are going to say, and people have said, that we're pro-Iran or something.

01:56:34.200 That might be the only option we have left.

01:56:36.940 Might be it.

01:56:38.020 What else can you do?

01:56:39.140 I mean, seriously, because you got these guys like Shapiro and Levin, and they say,

01:56:42.760 we just need to keep going.

01:56:44.440 We're being soft on them.

01:56:46.020 I mean, realistically, what can be done that hasn't already been done?

01:56:48.480 We bombed them 15,000 times. 0.88

01:56:50.080 Yeah, all the Zionists were saying continue the war.

01:56:51.900 It's actually insane. 1.00

01:56:53.080 Like one idiot I was talking with the other day, they're like, I don't like the MOU. 1.00

01:56:57.200 like we just got to keep going 1.00

01:56:58.320 I'm like what the fuck 0.99

01:56:59.360 are you going to do 0.99

01:56:59.980 like at this point

01:57:00.980 and I don't think

01:57:02.620 these people understand

01:57:03.460 you have no military options

01:57:04.960 because the next step

01:57:06.340 is a nuclear bomb

01:57:07.080 or destroying their infrastructure

01:57:08.080 and if you do that 0.83

01:57:09.400 say goodbye to the Saudis

01:57:11.140 the Kuwaitis 1.00

01:57:11.680 the Bahrainians

01:57:12.380 the UAE

01:57:13.160 I think the UAE

01:57:13.960 got hit 2,000 times

01:57:14.960 during this course

01:57:15.440 of this war plus

01:57:16.240 and it's like

01:57:17.040 they can't do anything

01:57:18.420 because they're right there 1.00

01:57:20.060 next to Iran

01:57:20.620 on a map

01:57:21.360 like can we pull up

01:57:22.080 real quick on a map

01:57:22.640 just to illustrate to the audience

01:57:23.780 like how defenseless 1.00

01:57:24.900 these fucking Gulf states are 1.00

01:57:25.940 it's actually ridiculous 1.00

01:57:26.720 like how little um you know defense they have and then like the interceptors like you said are

01:57:32.460 pretty much cooked yep you know i mean man i mean we burned through 75 percent of our miss

01:57:40.140 according to estimates of our missile interceptors and you know nine of our bases have been rendered

01:57:45.580 inoperable like the reporting on the extent of the damage has totally undersold how much of it

01:57:50.800 has been you know completely wiped out and the u.s has no defenses like you know i was watching uh

01:57:55.680 some of the stuff they were talking about how when we went to war in the

01:57:58.940 global war on terror,

01:58:00.140 we were not worried about it big real quick.

01:58:01.960 And then,

01:58:02.300 yeah.

01:58:02.560 Oh,

01:58:02.760 uh,

01:58:03.240 so guys,

01:58:03.840 zoom in down a little bit.

01:58:05.380 You can see where Iran is. 1.00

01:58:06.600 Move, 1.00

01:58:06.840 move to the,

01:58:07.620 move to the,

01:58:08.880 your left a little bit now down,

01:58:10.580 down.

01:58:11.420 Cause we're in the way.

01:58:12.500 So like guys look at,

01:58:14.040 no scroll down more.

01:58:15.460 Yep.

01:58:15.880 Move down a bit more and move it down South.

01:58:20.840 Okay.

01:58:21.340 See where Dubai is guys compared to Iran.

01:58:24.040 Dude, 0.98

01:58:24.400 Dude, that's like a hop, skip, and a jump away.

01:58:25.900 That's like 30 miles of water that separates them, dude.

01:58:28.260 They could just hit them relentlessly. 0.98

01:58:30.380 All these Gulf states are right there across the Persian Gulf from Iran. 1.00

01:58:35.600 And that's why they've been able to just bully them the whole time. 1.00

01:58:37.680 Sorry.

01:58:38.500 Yeah.

01:58:39.720 I lost my train of thought.

01:58:40.820 What was I talking about?

01:58:41.720 It was – oh, yeah, yeah.

01:58:43.820 In the global war on terror, we were not worried about attacks from the air.

01:58:47.740 This was before drones.

01:58:49.100 Taliban didn't have an air force, anything like that.

01:58:51.340 And so when we actually had our troops in Iraq and in these other countries, their fortifications were like they would put sandbags up because they're worried about vehicle attacks or rockets or something.

01:59:01.800 They weren't worried about the air.

01:59:03.100 So when we're in some of these countries like Kuwait, which is, I think, where these people got killed.

01:59:08.420 Yes, they're just in like they're just in regular buildings.

01:59:12.080 And and the building where some of these people were killed, they put out a request to the military saying we're not safe here.

01:59:18.320 This is one of the targets. And if we get hit with a drone, we're going to die. And that's what happened. They got hit with a drone and they died because we're not ready for shooting down projectiles from the air. We're not ready to deal with the drones. And so, you know, we are really incurring severe losses in terms of equipment, in terms of personnel. And what's funny, too, so we go into the war to destroy the missiles. That's the whole idea.

01:59:41.660 And our ability to destroy the missiles is what prevents them from closing the strait.

01:59:46.880 If we can suppress the missile and drone fire, then they can't keep the strait closed.

01:59:51.020 So we bomb them 15,000 times and we pound them literally with everything we have. 0.76

01:59:55.340 We have destroyed only 25% of their missile stockpile, still have 75% of them.

01:59:59.700 And since the ceasefire, they've already gone back to work on their missile production facility.

02:00:03.920 So they're going to start pumping them out all over again.

02:00:05.780 Same thing with the drones.

02:00:07.020 China's furnishing them with these supplies to build more of it.

02:00:09.780 So at the same time, the U.S. has burned through 75% of the interceptors.

02:00:14.920 So we destroyed 25% of their missiles.

02:00:17.240 We burned through 75% of our interceptors.

02:00:19.980 And again, you say, if we go back to war, what more can be done?

02:00:25.220 We bomb them 15,000 more times.

02:00:27.180 Are they going to now have half the missiles?

02:00:29.400 Have they rebuilt more of them?

02:00:31.000 I mean, they say that it's going to take around six months to get back to their pre-war stockpile of missiles.

02:00:36.300 And it's already been two months since the ceasefire.

02:00:39.800 So that's the problem. 0.95

02:00:41.200 It's just there's no way that you're going to sufficiently suppress Iran's ability to shut down the strait in time before there's an economic calamity. 0.99

02:00:49.400 And the scary part is they don't even really have to shut it down with force. 0.99

02:00:52.120 All they've got to do is create fear.

02:00:53.460 Right, exactly.

02:00:53.960 They just hit a couple of boats, and then Lloyd's of London are not insuring any of these ships, and they're not going to go through.

02:00:57.780 Exactly.

02:00:58.200 That's all they have to do.

02:01:00.600 Do you think more U.S. service members are dead than the, I think, 13 and 15 that they're claiming?

02:01:06.240 I think that would be illegal.

02:01:07.660 Isn't there, like, a legal requirement to talk about casualties?

02:01:11.000 I don't know.

02:01:11.820 There's more injured.

02:01:12.980 Yeah.

02:01:13.300 There's more severely injured.

02:01:14.480 Oh, yeah, hundreds are injured.

02:01:15.360 They've been keeping that hidden.

02:01:16.940 Yeah, DropSite said there's, like, over 300 that have been severely injured.

02:01:20.380 Yes, yes, especially from Kuwait, like, because a lot of them had to get airlifted to Germany.

02:01:24.460 Right, yeah, right, right.

02:01:25.460 Like, on, like, the first couple days of the war in the U.S., obviously, like, there was a couple, a lot of people reported that, like, Kuwaiti hospitals were, like, completely being bombarded with U.S. service members,

02:01:35.600 and they couldn't take care of them and they had to 0.97

02:01:37.340 airlift them all to fucking Germany. And obviously 0.99

02:01:39.600 the US government is not going to disclose that.

02:01:42.100 But yeah, and then I remember for a while

02:01:43.600 they didn't say anything about the bases being destroyed

02:01:45.520 but yeah, CNN did a report and a couple others

02:01:47.360 and they found out like, no, they're

02:01:49.200 inoperable, man. They're inoperable.

02:01:51.240 And then people say, why did they start

02:01:53.540 hitting hotels? Because service members end up going to

02:01:55.480 these hotels, they found out, and that's why they're

02:01:57.460 shooting these precise drones into these hotels.

02:01:59.960 So it's like,

02:02:01.700 you know,

02:02:02.000 at this point

02:02:05.660 because I'm thinking to myself

02:02:06.900 what can you do militarily

02:02:08.000 you can't really do much more

02:02:09.120 because if you do it

02:02:10.120 you're going to risk

02:02:10.780 the Gulf states getting destroyed

02:02:11.860 because the next step 0.63

02:02:13.560 is nuclear bombs

02:02:14.420 or power plants

02:02:16.640 or you know

02:02:17.460 infrastructure

02:02:18.580 and then you can't invade

02:02:19.840 because you got the

02:02:20.840 not the Alboros Mountains

02:02:23.600 the Alboros Mountains

02:02:24.140 are on the Caspian Sea

02:02:25.220 the Zagros Mountains

02:02:27.340 to the east 0.98

02:02:28.160 Saddam couldn't get past those 0.97

02:02:29.720 so it's like 0.99

02:02:30.080 how the hell are you going to do

02:02:30.860 you'll never be able to do

02:02:31.580 land invasion we don't have the stomach for it politically anyway so it's like what can you

02:02:36.240 honestly do at this point it's like um the only thing you could do if is you would have to really 0.92

02:02:42.400 go hard on israel and tell them you got to leave lebanon but they're not going to do that so it's

02:02:45.460 like i don't know what the hell the trump administration is going to do at this point

02:02:48.520 and then like you said which is true um they've only just stopped maybe 25 to 30 percent of their

02:02:53.840 missile uh capabilities and then and they're still making their drones their missiles which

02:02:57.400 is funny because i remember on day one of the war or sorry like the first couple days of war

02:03:01.100 Netanyahu and the Israeli government were like,

02:03:03.040 they only have 100 launchers left.

02:03:04.940 Come on, dude.

02:03:05.680 Yeah, I remember that, yeah.

02:03:07.340 Like, you know, they're still shooting a missile. 0.99

02:03:09.780 So, yeah, I don't know what the fuck 0.99

02:03:12.260 is going to end up going on here. 0.97

02:03:16.680 So, I think, so you're completely against,

02:03:21.220 like, because the other thing also,

02:03:22.860 because this is an MOU as well,

02:03:24.560 they wanted us to pull out of the region.

02:03:26.720 What are your thoughts on that?

02:03:27.500 Like, do you think that would be a complete,

02:03:30.820 Well, it would be a complete capitulation, of course.

02:03:32.840 But would that set us up for long-term failure, in your opinion?

02:03:36.780 Leaving the region all together?

02:03:38.340 It's hard to say.

02:03:39.340 I think that's what we wanted to do anyway. 0.74

02:03:41.220 That's really the whole point, is to get Saudi Arabia and Syria and the Abraham Accords. 0.87

02:03:46.240 And then even if Iran still exists, Iran will be balanced by this Abraham alliance, they want to call it. 0.90

02:03:52.300 Which is Israel, Egypt, Jordan, Saudi, Syria, the Emirates, Bahrain. 0.92

02:03:57.340 That was the whole idea.

02:03:59.200 And then we would need to be there because then we could furnish all these countries with fighter jets and intelligence and all these things.

02:04:05.600 And if it got to that point, they'd be able to defend themselves. They wouldn't need us.

02:04:10.320 So now the question is, OK, Iran isn't going anywhere. Saudi's not normalizing with Israel.

02:04:16.660 Maybe Syria isn't either. So, you know, the situation isn't quite the same.

02:04:22.400 And we can't really hand it off to these other countries to do it because, you know, like in Europe, for example.

02:04:28.000 We want to do the same thing in Europe. How? We're going to get UK, Germany, France to spend more on military. Then they don't need us. They can defend themselves from Russia and then we can leave. Well, this alliance in the Middle East isn't happening. You know, so but then again, do we really even need to defend these people at that point? Well, that is where all the oil is. So I don't know. I mean, I don't know that the U.S. is in a position where we can leave them to their own devices.

02:04:53.480 You know what else is kind of like, I guess, troublesome? 0.84

02:04:58.740 They talked about after Israel attacked Qatar, I know Saudi Arabia, that obviously shook them up quite a bit when they were trying to kill the Hamas guys back in September, actually, right before.

02:05:08.400 I remember because it was right before Charlie Kirk passed away. 0.76

02:05:10.760 They attacked Qatar trying to get these Hamas guys while they were trying to negotiate this thing. 0.65

02:05:15.760 And obviously it was very embarrassing for us and everything else like that. 0.73

02:05:18.560 But Saudi Arabia went and did a deal with Pakistan for security assurances since they have nuclear weapons.

02:05:25.960 I don't know if you've heard about this.

02:05:27.100 Have you heard about these talks how they're going to try to create a Muslim NATO?

02:05:30.300 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

02:05:31.040 With Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Turkey, Qatar.

02:05:35.680 What are your thoughts on that?

02:05:37.500 Yeah, I mean, it's certainly interesting. 0.72

02:05:40.040 And I think that's a good idea because then it almost becomes like an anti-Israel bloc.

02:05:44.500 And what is happening is that the Middle East is just fundamentally different now than it was before October 7th.

02:05:49.560 What's shaping up is even before the Iran war, you had Saudi and the Emirates splitting up because Saudi is actually, you know, when Mohammed bin Salman first got in, he wanted to shake everything up.

02:06:00.260 Now he wants to calm everything down.

02:06:01.620 Now they're really like a status quo power, trying to preserve the status quo. 0.84

02:06:05.160 The Emiratis, like the Israelis, are trying to change everything.

02:06:07.940 That's why they're intervening in Sudan. 0.84

02:06:09.300 They're intervening in Yemen.

02:06:10.180 They're intervening in all these different conflicts.

02:06:11.600 And so what would emerge is an alliance. Like you said, there's a mutual defense pact now between Pakistan and Saudi. And then they're talking about bringing Turkey to that as well. And those are going to be like and Qatar, too. These are going to be the the forces in favor of the status quo.

02:06:27.180 What you might see on the other side is a different block, which is, let's say, Israel, Greece, the Emirates, Azerbaijan, and they're going to be like the revisionist powers.

02:06:38.020 And so the Middle East is really going to, in terms of the geopolitical alignment, it's going to be totally different.

02:06:43.000 And then the question would be, which side would Iran be on?

02:06:46.320 Probably they'd be on the side with Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi, Turkey.

02:06:49.840 I mean, it sounds crazy that there's a one time, of course, the Saudis and the Iranians were in this like proxy war for 10 years or which engulfed the entire Middle East.

02:06:58.400 And and now you might think in a scenario where the U.S. leaves the region, maybe then that is how things would would shake out.

02:07:06.220 And then you just have been a proxy war between these more revisionist powers and these like Islamist status quo powers.

02:07:14.540 It might shake out to be something like that.

02:07:16.700 But I don't know that the U.S. can really afford to leave the Middle East just because of how vital the commodities are there in the trade as well.

02:07:24.820 Yeah, not only that, but I think it would open a door for China to come in and build an enormous amount of influence in there as well if we were to leave.

02:07:31.560 I think that's a big reason why they didn't want to leave, but Iran wants them out of there as part of the MOU.

02:07:37.080 Obviously, they would never leave completely.

02:07:39.340 But, I mean, you don't think China would try to come in and take some of the influence, especially with their partnership with Iran?

02:07:43.500 I don't think so, because China has no ability to project power in the Middle East.

02:07:46.920 They're an economic power, but they just have no ability to project power.

02:07:52.940 I mean, not even in Taiwan yet.

02:07:55.100 But you don't think if we pulled out, that opened the door for them to potentially maybe build a base in Iran or build a base in our—

02:08:01.700 Well, I mean, yeah, yes and no.

02:08:03.960 I mean, it would have been trending in that direction, the UAE and Saudi—

02:08:06.500 If we left, of course. If we left is what I mean. 0.71

02:08:08.160 Yeah, I mean, they joined BRICS already.

02:08:11.520 And Beijing brokered a truce between Iran and Saudi Arabia in 23.

02:08:16.320 They opened up embassies and everything.

02:08:17.960 They talked about normalization and everything.

02:08:19.900 So, yeah, I mean, China would play like a diplomatic role.

02:08:23.300 And, yeah, maybe they'd build some infrastructure.

02:08:25.100 All those countries are Belt and Road countries, too, even Israel.

02:08:28.420 And, you know, we've seen some of the middle powers are playing China and the U.S. off of each other.

02:08:33.080 Saudi did that under Biden.

02:08:34.800 Turkey does this between Russia and the United States.

02:08:37.000 So certainly their influence would increase.

02:08:39.080 But I think so much of that is overstated because China just they don't have as long of a reach as the United States does because they're we're a security provider.

02:08:46.660 They are not a security provider at all.

02:08:48.360 Yeah. And the only thing with the security provider thing, which like I think we kind of got shown to be a paper tiger, was we weren't able to protect our Gulf allies in this situation.

02:08:55.860 And even, you know, and obviously our ability to even intercept missiles or whatever, that's kind of been, you know, significantly reduced as well. 0.97

02:09:01.640 So it's like, that's another thing from this conflict that I was like, oh man, like, we've been, like, Saudi Arabia's complaining, they protect Israel more than us, what the fuck is going on here?

02:09:09.320 So it's like, you know, is our security assurances and guarantees going to be as potent, as powerful as what it was now that people have, like, literally seen we can't even stop drones from $20,000 drones from, like, you know, passing a waterway and hitting our allies that, you know, obviously have very sensitive and, you know, fragile infrastructure.

02:09:28.340 so i don't know man it's it's absolutely nuts um what do we got here we got some uh we're gonna

02:09:34.340 you know we're gonna shift here uh guys over to osss and hold it

02:09:36.980 yeah you know what

02:09:40.400 real quick and then um oh tell them real quick about uh your merch in america first plus

02:09:50.060 yeah tell them bro come on i don't i hate plugging i hate plugging i barely like to

02:09:56.680 plug it on my own show.

02:09:58.680 Do it, man. Do it. So they can show you love.

02:10:00.940 That's crazy.

02:10:02.560 Yeah, yeah. Fuentes.store for the merch.

02:10:05.320 AmericaFirst.plus for the subscriptions.

02:10:08.500 And the show.

02:10:09.600 And the big show.

02:10:16.380 I've got to do a quick commercial break as well.

02:10:18.400 And then I've got to open it up.

02:10:20.880 No, it's going to open up for you automatically.

02:10:22.200 If it continues.

02:10:24.480 And then...

02:10:26.200 Yeah, we'll do a quick thing here in a second

02:10:33.620 Then we'll do the shift

02:10:35.100 Let me see here

02:10:37.940 Yeah, to get it open

02:10:40.580 Yeah, no worries

02:10:41.380 Oh, was that ending up with the Todd Blanche thing?

02:10:44.160 That was his lawyer?

02:10:45.720 Brett?

02:10:46.700 Oh, yeah, yeah

02:10:47.360 It was his personal lawyer, right?

02:10:49.120 For New York

02:10:49.760 Yeah

02:10:50.480 What are your thoughts on the

02:10:54.460 the Epstein debacle?

02:10:56.940 Do you think that's going to come back

02:10:57.880 and haunt the entire administration

02:11:00.080 and people are going to go to jail

02:11:00.900 when the Democrats get in

02:11:01.820 or is it going to be a part of the oversight?

02:11:03.600 No. I think it's all bullshit. 1.00

02:11:04.780 I think the whole Epstein thing 1.00

02:11:05.820 is a load of bullshit. 1.00

02:11:07.000 Okay. 1.00

02:11:07.200 And the Democrats,

02:11:08.140 that's a political football.

02:11:09.160 I always thought that about the,

02:11:10.980 you know, because they all say...

02:11:12.240 So we got MTG in the whole,

02:11:13.520 in the hot seat with him and everything.

02:11:14.740 Yeah.

02:11:15.340 But, you know, look,

02:11:16.100 the Democrats, if they wanted it,

02:11:17.600 they could have gotten it under Biden.

02:11:19.220 Biden was just...

02:11:19.960 And by the way,

02:11:21.440 you know,

02:11:22.340 So Epstein was a Democrat.

02:11:25.240 You know, the triangulation of Epstein was the Democrats here, the Labor Party in the

02:11:30.300 UK and the Labor Party in Israel.

02:11:31.720 So he was practically a Democrat operative. 0.54

02:11:33.900 He was like a blue church operative, let's say. 0.83

02:11:37.240 Trump probably had him killed.

02:11:38.920 I mean, most likely it was during the Trump administration.

02:11:41.880 Yeah.

02:11:42.220 And he died under the Trump administration.

02:11:43.340 Yeah.

02:11:43.540 It was Bill Barr that picked him up, you know, and he died under Trump.

02:11:46.540 So I think the Democrats, they just wanted that to go off on it for obvious reasons,

02:11:50.940 because now this is how you get the Trump base to be deflated.

02:11:54.220 Yeah. 1.00

02:11:54.480 But, I mean, it's all bullshit. 0.98

02:11:55.820 What really came out of the files? 0.99

02:11:58.280 Nothing.

02:11:58.620 Yeah.

02:11:59.580 I mean, people were just doing control Fs the whole time.

02:12:02.200 Like, your name's in there.

02:12:03.700 Your name's in there.

02:12:04.400 It was such a nothing burger. 0.98

02:12:05.700 They had three fucking million files, and you don't got one thing. 0.98

02:12:09.280 Yeah. 0.98

02:12:09.420 Nothing.

02:12:10.220 And everybody hated me for saying that, but look, I'm honest.

02:12:13.580 You know, did we find a smoking gun in the files?

02:12:15.600 No. 0.99

02:12:15.980 People want to point to one stupid email that's totally vague, 0.99

02:12:18.660 that, you know, people are just assuming 1.00

02:12:21.460 there's something bad.

02:12:22.400 And so much of it was just fake.

02:12:24.480 People were posting, like, AI images

02:12:26.300 that weren't even in the files.

02:12:29.160 Someone submitted an FBI tip

02:12:31.580 saying, oh, here's, like, a video of Epstein abuse. 0.70

02:12:34.820 It was some, like, fetish porn video. 0.91

02:12:36.740 Nothing to do with Epstein. 0.88

02:12:38.720 So I think it was a big nothing burger.

02:12:40.620 And then, of course, we release all the files,

02:12:43.240 and then people go,

02:12:44.100 well, what's in the three million other files?

02:12:46.340 You go, okay, so what's going to happen

02:12:48.040 where there's nothing in there.

02:12:49.140 Yeah. 1.00

02:12:49.520 You know, I think it's a crock of shit. 0.99

02:12:51.060 I think it's important for people to understand that, like, you know, there's a reason why 0.99

02:12:54.640 they couldn't, like, push a full-on criminal investigation to all the people involved, right?

02:12:59.300 Like, the FBI tried, you know, and they just weren't able to build enough probable costs

02:13:03.660 to indict a lot of these other people that were involved.

02:13:05.260 So, like, you know, what you know and what you can prove are two completely different

02:13:09.380 things, and people tend to not know that.

02:13:11.980 Now, I mean, you know, let me read this quick, a quick commercial break, if you want to take

02:13:17.100 a piss or anything like that i'll read this real quick uh nick and then uh go ahead you can hit

02:13:20.560 continue and then i'll read it uh yeah yeah left is fine left is fine left is fine and then you 0.64

02:13:25.160 can just let nick uh take a piss or whatever and i'll i'll read this you can put me on camera only 0.54

02:13:30.960 uh okay yep you just hit uh oh you got to click the link the task google docs yeah okay um okay 0.50

02:13:40.980 okay quick word from our sponsor uh technology changed everything and now changing how money
