Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello and welcome back to even more news, the first and only news podcast. My name's Katie Stoll. This is Benny the Bean Button. Yeah, it is. Hi, Benny the Bean Button and Katie, I guess, as well. I'm Cody. My dog's under the desk. I'm so sorry, folks.
Starting point is 00:00:30 no visuals of the other dog. Jonathan is also here. Hi. Hi, Benny. Hi. Benny's clingy because I just got back from a trip. But he's going to have to go down. He's going to have to go down.
Starting point is 00:00:43 Down on the floor. Oh, from your lap. News. We've got so very much of it. I did my best to stay apprised of what was happening in the world while I was gone. But I'm sure you guys did a better job. Jonathan what is our lead story today? This one just happened this morning, so you didn't really miss.
Starting point is 00:01:06 I mean, you missed stuff, whatever. The Supreme Court said this morning, with not much explanation, that racial profiling is like okay for ICE to do, probably. I love a nice strong ruling that makes it very clear. Probably maybe. Well, they got rid of, it's assumed to be six to three, although this is shadow docket, unsigned stuff. They said that those L.A., the District and Appeals courts that said that, no, you can't just show up at Home Depot or at a car wash and grab people because of where they're working or what language they're speaking. That's not okay. The Supreme Court says that they are allowed
Starting point is 00:01:47 to do that while this case continues to go through the process. But Kavanaugh is the only person who wrote anything about this. And he seemed to indicate that he believed. that ICE was going to prevail on the merits. What he said was that reasonable suspicion, which is what you need to, you know, question people about their immigration status is different from probable cause and that for reasonable suspicion,
Starting point is 00:02:14 you have to look at what he called the totality of the circumstances. And he said it's just common sense that if there are people who are Latino and speaking Spanish and at a car wash, you know, come on. Come on. You know, then you can question them.
Starting point is 00:02:31 And if you are a citizen or here legally, they just question you and let you go. So what's the big deal? What's the big deal? Seeming to ignore what actually happens is that they grab you and detain you for hours or days. And also it's against the Fourth Amendment to anyone who's not them. Also, if it's not a big deal, you know, if you're a citizen, that's going to be fine. No, you're rounding up citizens too. It is a big deal.
Starting point is 00:02:57 It's a very big deal. Obviously. Only non-citizens speak Spanish, Katie. Only non-citizens speak Spanish. There's no possible way this could go badly. There's no possible way. We're a papers-please country. Finally.
Starting point is 00:03:10 Basically, we're a papers-please country. If they see you, all you have to do is have your papers on you at all times. And then there's no problem. There's no problem. This is, well, it's bizarre on top of being right, incorrect. Because they're not saying what. the other courts should look for, right? They're not saying, oh, by the way, the Fourth Amendment doesn't apply to this, and that's how you should rule, which is kind of what the Supreme Court
Starting point is 00:03:38 does, is gives guidance to judges. They just say, ICE can keep doing this stuff in L.A. or anywhere else, but in L.A., while this goes through the normal channels, there's no guidance so that the judges who've already looked at this shouldn't say the exact same thing. Like, if it goes back to the appeals courts or the district court judges, they should look at it. and say, okay, my opinion still holds that this is bullshit. Common sense. What are you talking about? Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:04:08 Are they going to do that, do you think? I mean, right now, it seems like district court judges have still been trying to hold the line, and they're incredibly dismayed that even some Trump-appointed judges are saying, oh, yeah, we're pointing out that these things are blatantly illegal, and the Supreme Court is just saying, me. For now, it's fine. Yeah, exactly. You know, bad.
Starting point is 00:04:27 yeah it seems uh quite bad um that they're going to keep they're going to keep doing the things that they've been doing uh speaking of ice there was this ice raid on a hundai factory yeah uh immigration officials last week raided a hundi hundi immigration officials last week rated a hundi lg plant in georgia they're setting up a factory to build electric batteries and so the company's brought over hundreds of people from South Korea who have experience building and setting up those factories. These factories will ultimately hire American workers to work in them as part of the whole commitment from South Korea to invest in the United States that Trump is touting that whole thing. Well, that place was rated and hundreds of people, nearly 500, were detained, which they
Starting point is 00:05:21 called the largest ever homeland security enforcement operation at a single location. This is strange because it's immediately unclear what the legal status was. South Korea says that there were visas involved in this, but the Trump administration says that they were skirting some rules in order to have those workers here. And even Trump seemed to suggest, well, we need to have ways where people can bring in workers to set up stuff we don't want to shut that down but i guess they were here illegally he he was a little non-committal about it since he notices that it's an embarrassment yeah he did uh he does seem to be doing that with a lot of things kind of lately of just sort of like well you know this but like i guess we got to do it um almost like he's
Starting point is 00:06:11 kind of unaware of things as they happen and then uh is like finds out sometimes even when he's asked about it interesting side note not a surprising side note but is that dementia or is that his strategy it's very unclear but the president never seems to have any information about what's happening uh according to what comes out of his mouth anyway yeah about anything well yeah it seems to be dhs is very happy because they've been given this quota right arresting 500 people in a day that's one-sixth of the way to the quota oh thank goodness we don't have to worry about the quota that we're going to get yelled at about. But then it comes to Trump, and Trump is thinking, I just told South Korea that they had to invest hundreds of millions of dollars here, what South Koreans are going to
Starting point is 00:06:56 want to come and work here if they risk spending days in a nice detention center over it, because now that plant is going to be delayed from opening, delaying those American jobs, which I don't know if any of you have noticed, are going away. Going away. Do it really badly for a couple months now, Even with the new person in the Bureau of Labor Statistics, it's, you know. That's okay. According to Jesse Waters, it's good. And it's because we're deporting all these people. The jobs are gone. You deport the people and the jobs are gone. Even though that doesn't make any sense, there'd be more job opening. If they were taking our jobs and then we deport them, then there would be more job openings because those jobs would be open. But job
Starting point is 00:07:39 openings are also down, right? Yeah. It's interesting because we, lost, I think 1.2 million immigrants have left the job force since the beginning of this year, either through deportation or they're here legally and are afraid to work or finding different opportunities or leaving for any number of reasons. And you'll see people on Fox News, Trump people, saying, well, that's the reason the job numbers are down is because we're deporting all these people. But shouldn't those people, if they're taking jobs from a native born Americans be immediately replaced with the native born Americans exactly the job openings would be up because the people have left the jobs so those jobs would be open I don't know these engineers that get fired should probably just go if they really want to work hard they'll take that pay cut yeah um yeah it's a it's a long series of actions that sort of like to your point jonathan of like well who's are they gonna who's gonna want to come here if a deal is made then who's gonna want to come here and
Starting point is 00:08:43 do that if they're going to just like end up being detained or whatever. And that is seems also like a pattern with this administration. It's like, well, who's going to trust us? Who's going to want to do this? Who's going to want to do anything involving America if we keep like betraying everybody and lying and, uh, and doing all these things? Yeah, it's like the least trustworthy administration. Like he's the dealmaker, but you can't trust any deal. Yeah. You make with him. They're bad deals. Right. Either he's going to turn. on you personally, or he's given a different quota to someone else, and they're going to
Starting point is 00:09:17 do what they're doing. So these 475 people were mostly South Korean subcontractors with B1 training visas. They were temporary workers. These are not people who are like, now I'm going to live in Atlanta and turn it blue for good.
Starting point is 00:09:33 That's not what this is. Exactly. So it's both evil and a screw up on their part. Yeah, exactly. and it is just a side note about sort of Trump just sort of like being unaware of things and not really keeping up on stuff
Starting point is 00:09:54 or being where what's going on and being like finding out news as people ask him according to Vance his vice president that's because he's got a Marine Corps style of leadership he said in a recent interview So they never know what's going on either Yeah. In a recent interview with the president's daughter-in-law, who's on Fox News now, interviewing the vice president pretty regularly, it would not have shocked me if I had learned your father-in-law was in the Marine Corps. Of course, he didn't serve in the Marines, but he has a Marine Corps style of leadership. And the Marine Corps style of leadership he cites is delegating. He says, because he delegates, he says, like, you do this, you do this, and then he lets them do it. And then that's that. orders in the right uh you think he said marines and then was like oh shit bone spurs thing uh that's
Starting point is 00:10:46 going to get come back to me he wasn't in the marines obviously but i don't but he could have been he could have been because he delegates and you can only learn how to delegate in the marine corps i honestly what is did delegating even mean i've never been in the marine core i don't understand how could you if you're not a marine how do you know what delegating is anyway he's an embarrassing man he's an embarrassing man and so sorry vice president this This ad is brought to you by VIV Healthcare, the makers of Appritude, Cabotegrivir. You never skip your SPF, and you carry hand sanitizer like an accessory. But what are you doing for HIV prevention?
Starting point is 00:11:23 One way to help protect yourself from HIV is Appritude, a prescription medicine used to reduce the risk of getting HIV in adults and adolescents weighing at least 77 pounds. You must be HIV negative to receive Appritude and get tested before each injection. If you think you were exposed to HIV or have flu-like symptoms, tell your doctor right away. More HIV testing may be needed. Appritude does not prevent other sexually transmitted infections. Practice safer sex to reduce your risk. Get Appritude as scheduled.
Starting point is 00:11:56 Missing doses increases your HIV risk. Don't take Appritude if allergic to it or taking certain medicines that may interact. Tell your doctor about your medical conditions, liver problems, and mental health. health. Serious side effects include allergic reactions or rash, liver problems, and depression. If these occur, get medical help right away. The most common side effect
Starting point is 00:12:19 is injection site reaction. Bring your A-game and talk to your doctor. Learn more at Appritude.com or call 1-888-240-3-40. To our next topic, which is for the department of what is it here for
Starting point is 00:12:40 forever for everything forever the Department of War yeah they renamed it well they didn't really rename it they're like they can't officially rename it but they are going to take down they're changing the signs and the websites it's very gulf of America coded
Starting point is 00:12:56 yeah it's costing millions of dollars to change all those signs and stationary and Pete Hagsets little buttons where he's saying war he just tweets war now it's the official title is the Department of Defense, aka the Department of War. Donald the Dove.
Starting point is 00:13:13 Yeah, and like speaking of the war that is the name of the department, but that we're not doing because we're the peace president, but also all the war we're doing. We blew up that boat. Yep. The Venezuelan boat, which maybe was carrying drugs. Who was on it?
Starting point is 00:13:28 We don't know. We don't know. We don't get to know. We don't need to know. We don't need to know. J.D. Vance tweeted on September 6th Killing cartel members who poison our fellow citizens is the highest and best use of our military. To which one of the Krasensteins said, Killing the citizens of another nation who are civilians without any due process is called a war crime. Good point, Brian Krasenstein. That's true.
Starting point is 00:13:52 To which J.D. Vance replied, I don't give a shit what you call it. So presidential. Epic back. Epic stuff from Loretta Bacon, Vice President. None of this should be surprising. we've talked about it. We've talked about it for a long time. If you go back, you can see it in the first administration. In fact, maybe we'll talk about it with this area conversation. That's just now percolating. Moves like trying to change cartels, which I'm not saying cartels are, you know, great, but trying to designate them as a terrorist organization, framing immigrants coming to
Starting point is 00:14:29 this country as an invasion. The rhetoric, the rhetoric around this man and this administration and the previous one has been preparing us all along for the inevitability of, you know, Department of Defense to become the Department of War. And who are we at war with? We're at war with terrorists and the terrorists of the drug cartels. And it is not good. Okay, Cody, I know you're ready to go, chomping at the bit. It's not good. I'm chomping, I'm champing, I'm doing all kinds of stuff. thoughts. I know you do. Uh, I, uh, I, sorry folks. Um, I, uh, I mean, I agree with you. We've talked about this for a long time, uh, recategorizing people using this kind of language of like, oh, you're a terrorist, actually. Oh, you're a traitorous. Oh, we're, it's an invasion. Oh,
Starting point is 00:15:16 an invading army. Oh, we're, we're importing all these military aged men. It's all of this sort of rhetoric to give the sense that we need, we are constantly at war. Um, and that is a huge, element of sorry. It's like this just one of the tenets of like a fascist movement growing and being entrenched in the nation is you're always at war. It's perpetual warfare. Whether it's an actual like official war where you're trying to expand territory. We haven't gone to war with Canada or Greenland yet. But it is this always the sense that we are at war. And Trump can say I've started no new wars and I've, you know, I hate war. We're the anti-war people while Vance is out there doing speeches saying like, you know, we got to be warriors. God forbid if we ever send your kids to war, because they're preparing to do that pretty clearly. And there's also this sort of rhetorical sense of like, well, so I guess we are always at war because what the military can clearly do is just kill whomever. position is might makes right and we have the word we're strength through peace but their version of
Starting point is 00:16:34 peace is blowing up uh whomever um without proving anything about who they just blew up so their position now is that they can just kind of blow up whoever and they can say we're not at war but we are because we're going after the invading terrorists or these cartels who are our wartime enemy but we haven't officially declared war so it's not really war and this is also an thing. We as the nation of America has always sort of like had this like, well, we're not at war, but we kind of are. The forever wars we're in. And that was more official. But this is an American empire sort of thing. But Trump and Vance are shouting it. And the contradictions are even more obvious. And they're putting us into a position where we can kind of just be the American empire,
Starting point is 00:17:27 blow up whoever with no repercussions and say that we're not we're actually peaceful we're a peaceful nation we don't like war even though you're doing acts of war constantly is the problem as you can say we're not we're anti-war but you're doing acts of war so which is it which is it in the in the bush years we didn't declare war against afghanistan and iraq obviously but we were in those wars we like invaded countries. And so it was very easy, not that it worked for a few years, but it was very easy to point and say,
Starting point is 00:18:03 look, they're trying to use this war as the blanket for doing anything for the Patriot Act, all this horrible stuff they're doing. You have to be afraid because we're at war. Now, Trump and Vance have taken it to the next level where they're like, we could be at war with anyone at
Starting point is 00:18:19 any time, including our own cities. And I think ding, ding, ding. That's the next part of it for them because they got a wet like they trump got to bomb around and then say we're done now the end and so he's like why wouldn't we why wouldn't we blow up this boat or anyone else we don't like it's like uh and you know we can do it all under the guise of stopping terrorism because we define 12 different things as terrorism and we decide who the terrorists are and we don't even have to show you evidence marco rubio didn't have to do a colin powell and go in front of
Starting point is 00:18:54 everyone with diagrams and shit they didn't have to do anything they said we blew up these people we stopped it because it's drugs which is terrorism you know who they didn't blow up is that union leader who uh that police union leader who smuggled a bunch of fentanyl into the country they didn't blow her up yeah um they it's just it get yeah it's like what you're saying it's like all these like sort of like blanket justifications that are now just like well that's where we're at we're in perpetual warfare we can do whatever we want even see there's this trend i i noticed over the weekend of a lot of right wing accounts like the posobics of the world the gunther eagleman's whatever all the blue check right wingers posting these memes of like a moment from
Starting point is 00:19:34 a past war like Washington in a battle or or just like an image of a past war and over it is text that says like but sir a district judge said that you couldn't do this or whatever something like that alluding to like well you shouldn't we shouldn't have rules uh or or anything like that and judges shouldn't be able to stop you from doing X or Y. War crimes specifically. But, and that is, I think,
Starting point is 00:20:00 a great example of what we're talking about, which is, so you're posting this thing, this image of a war and saying, like, a district judge shouldn't stop you from doing this. Are we at war now? That's a war. You're posting an image of a literal war and saying it's the same thing as us doing this.
Starting point is 00:20:16 So are we at war? And to them, they would say yes, but no, because we're always, at war, and we have a Department of War now, and Hegseth is out there saying, I'm the war guy, but it's not official, so it's okay. So we're just going to keep doing this. Also, the Pentagon just, they have, every couple of years, they release the national defense strategy in the past, specifically the Trump, first Trump administration and many other administrations. It's just sort of like your strategy of like, we're going to, we need to prepare for, we need to
Starting point is 00:20:51 prepare for a war, obviously. We've got to have a war going on. And it's been basically prepare for a possible war with China and Russia. That's sort of like the general directive. And I'm not saying that's good. But that's what the situation has been. And this new national defense strategy has made it pretty clear that they're shifting from that to quote unquote domestic issues. The Western Hemisphere and domestic issues. Another part of fascism, aside from the perpetual warfare that we have now found ourselves to be in and maybe we have been in for a longer time than we're willing to admit. Imperialism turned inward is a phrase you might hear a lot.
Starting point is 00:21:31 And that is what they are doing. They're taking the military and they're saying we're actually going to use the military to focus on domestic issues, whether that is rounding up people based on racial profiling and deporting them, asking them for their papers, or using the military to go into these cities and say post images. where you're saying it's war on this city. They're saying we're going to- I-slop depicting it.
Starting point is 00:21:57 Depicting blowing up Chicago. And that is what this is all about. It is using the military as a force against the people in the nation that the military, like we've said this before, they're going to shoot civilians at some point. It's going to happen. And why aren't people, why isn't this rhetoric, breaking through. Why isn't that more alarming to people? It is. They don't like it. It is. It is. It is. But there's...
Starting point is 00:22:28 Like, it's not as unpopular as, like, bacon being expensive, which is frustrating. But it's not popular. People don't like this. Some people do a lot of, you know, enough people do where it's working so far. But, and maybe being more than to point out, I did see tons of, again, these right-wing freaks being, quote-tweeting, uh, J.D. Van, Van, Van, is like I don't give a shit with like this is what I voted for and it's like so you voted for apologizing for war crimes and saying that you can do whatever work crime you want that's what they're saying because they will say whatever they have to because it's all about Trump and Vance and whatever they say goes it is pathetic but that's where we're at but I
Starting point is 00:23:11 do I do think you know the hope is that people actually think it's bad that the vice president's like I don't give a shit if you if this is a war crime problem is is that there's lots of things that people think are bad. There's just so much of it that they don't have this space to register it and they see it on the, you know, the reporting of it and like, well, that doesn't look good. The next thing comes down the pipeline. The next thing comes down the pipeline and you forget about it until it actually blows up in your face.
Starting point is 00:23:41 It's hard to keep all of these different things in your mind at once. I think that that's part of it. There's also, because you see also people bringing it up to the president, sir, sir, sir, you posted that Chicago is going to find out why it's called the Department of War, which is technically not. And then they ask about this, why are you going to war with American cities? And he says, like, be quiet, shut up. You don't know what you're talking about. Is there any going to war with Chicago? When you say that, darling, that's fake news.
Starting point is 00:24:15 Why do you know the Department of Defense? Listen. Be quiet. Listen. You don't listen. You never listen. That's why you're second race. We're not going to war. We're going to clean up our cities. We're going to clean them up so they don't kill five people every weekend. That's not war. That's common sense. I would want to smack that man right in his goddamn face. Listen. I just perpetual warfare. We're not at war. Well, sir, you posted that they're going to find out why it's called the Department of War. You're saying it. And then when you're asked us, about it you tell this woman to shut up he may not have known it was posted he may not have known it's posted um he should know what was posted i do i know i know these moments are tough for people you know when you're in the moment like it's it's easy to say like you should say this or you should say this it's tough in the moment to do that he's the president all this kind of stuff um you know you're talking about shut up your second rate that's why blah you don't listen blah
Starting point is 00:25:11 blah blah i want someone to tell him to fuck off honestly one person one person fuck you This is what you said. Here it is. Here's what you said. Your second rate, you piece of shit, lying asshole. I would have lost my shit.
Starting point is 00:25:24 Fucking pedophile rapist. Fuck you. And she, but again, I know it's hard. And then you'll be fired. You don't have a job. I get it.
Starting point is 00:25:34 But. No, that she could have. And you'll be the target of him. He will go to war with that person. I would have been fired for slapping him in the face for speaking to me that way. I just. This meme is, it says,
Starting point is 00:25:45 I love the smell of deportations in the morning It's the like I love the Star of Napol in the morning Which Robert Duvall says An Apocalypse Now and he's got a little A-I-SLP thing with fire behind him And he's dressed like Robert Duvall from the movie And it's called Shypocalypse now
Starting point is 00:26:01 Apocalypse Now if you haven't seen it It's a movie about how war is good I thought it was Chippocalypse now For some reason But I get it better now shy I was like what Chippocalypse now It could also be Chippocalypse now which is like a animated
Starting point is 00:26:15 Ruffles movie, I'm sure they're making, and they're like, ah, damn it, what are we getting? We already... Shipocalypse down from us. But it's like, one, the right can't understand movies, right?
Starting point is 00:26:28 Or they do, and they're just psychopaths. And I'm not saying, like, just because it's a movie about war, that the message is war is bad, and things are more complicated than that, but most war movies are about how war is bad. Including... Includes, I would argue.
Starting point is 00:26:45 yeah oh like also is the heart of darkness like is it it's positive right heart of like no heart of darkness yeah it's about how how he liked war
Starting point is 00:26:55 good okay I this the slop but I don't think he saw it I don't think he saw it probably not he should be shown it if you're gonna ask a question about going to war with American cities
Starting point is 00:27:06 show him the thing that he posted even though he probably wasn't the one that posted it it's also I mean it was also asked do you have plans for Chicago this week and he said no not real we're going to go someplace but we're picking a question you've been talking a lot about Chicago no Chicago's been talking a lot about it well that's not true you posted about it I know he's very funny disgusting I'm sorry I know I understand I know I know I know I know
Starting point is 00:27:29 but I we I we just need to again we're at we're in perpetual warfare with ourselves he's saying he said maybe not Chicago we're going to go someplace but we're picking. It doesn't matter where. They know they need to go to another place. We're going to pick a city because that's our plan to do city to city to city to continue this. But then, well, yeah, he was asked about Memphis and St. Louis. Right. Right? And he was like, no. Mr. President, why target Chicago and Boston when there are cities and red states with higher prime rate? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Really higher than Chicago? There are like Memphis and St. Louis. Excuse me. You know how many people were killed in Chicago last weekend?
Starting point is 00:28:15 eight you think there's worse than that i don't think so there's no point in asking any sort of a real question i mean you have to ask it but you're going to get a wild array of answers and you try to have accountability and you're going to say i didn't say that what we've got your receipts right here that's fake news and that just seems to be a strategy that will always work not just for him we're not going to i don't think we'll have time to get into the rfk junior uh hearings but that is um mind the amount of times he's presented with the receipts of what he said. And bipartisan, by the way, not just Dems, woke libs, you know, literally pro showing him what he said and how he is contradicting that, showing his lies and just irate saying,
Starting point is 00:29:03 these are lies, these are lies. How do we do anything at all? Well, it's actually frustrating because he. It's just a replay of his confirmation hearing. Like, so much of that hearing was like, you've gone over this stuff. We know this stuff. Like Bill Cassidy out there, like, I don't know. You voted for him.
Starting point is 00:29:27 What are you talking about? He said, RFK Jr. said that the polio vaccine killed more people than polio. I don't care for this stuff that's going on. He said the same thing about the COVID vaccine. He says there's never been a safe and effective vaccine. Oh, but do you think Trump should win the Nobel? Prize for Operation Warp Speed? Searching his head.
Starting point is 00:29:49 Yes, obviously. Yeah, because of the thing, because of how he did it, not because of what it resulted in. But I believe him to be a mass murderer, actually. Yeah. Like, because he gave him all the vaccine. He did. Exactly. Not for nothing.
Starting point is 00:30:03 Obviously, RFK, there's plenty of stuff to criticize him about and his own personal health issues and whatever he struggled with is, I don't really need to get into that. However, it's hard to not watch that man speak and think, as I always do, if the rules were reversed, if this was somebody from a dumb administration, the way he would be lambasted for being so twitchy and so odd and incoherent at times. And of, like, he does not seem well despite how many pull-ups he can do with headset or not. But that is a petty little thing I'm pointing out But it is very distracting to me whenever I watch him I'm like, there's something If I saw that person in public, I'd be like,
Starting point is 00:30:52 They're on something, right? He said he started doing heroin And he could finally read. So there you go. Was he trying, I've seen that clip, but is that part of a larger or a longer clip Where he's like, well, I understand why people do drugs like this But it's bad, like he does go on to say it's bad?
Starting point is 00:31:11 I don't know I'd hope so I also don't say that to shame anybody that's had their experiences with drugs or what have you it just you know everyone's journey that's not my point here
Starting point is 00:31:24 but my point is that the man currently doesn't seem super well and if it was reversed just like everything else it would be a non-starter and that's what people would be talking about every time also just side note
Starting point is 00:31:40 But if you're talking about how, like, you took heroin, you could finally, like, focus on reading, you also can't say that you've never heard of ADD or anything as a kid. Right. Because it sounds like you had it and then fixed it with heroin for a while. I don't know. It doesn't, that doesn't matter. Everything matters and nothing matters. That's true.
Starting point is 00:32:00 We didn't really talk about this botched North Korean mission story that we alluded to. But I do think it's relevant to this Department of War. or the most peaceful president ever. Yes, the war crime president and his war crime vice president. Yeah, this was an operation that Trump approved, although I think he's already pretended that he had no idea about it. I'm hearing it for the first time type thing. But in 2019, he approved a mission.
Starting point is 00:32:30 Sorry, that's disqualifying as a president. If you don't know anything that's happening in your administration and everything's for the first time, you fire. Sorry. This is the deep state. It's called delegating. He learned it in the Marine Corps, okay? Again, I'm not a Marine.
Starting point is 00:32:45 I don't know these things. Read up on delegation. In 2019, he approved a mission where our SEAL Team 6, you know, ah, SEAL Team 6, they were going to, like, sneak into North Korea and plant a device to where they could, like, listen to communications going to Kim Jong-un.
Starting point is 00:33:02 But when they got there to this, what they thought would be a deserted shore, they saw another boat, and they're like, ah, those guys saw us. and so they killed everyone on the boat and dumped the bodies in the ocean and it turned out to just be a fishing boat. These were civilians, they were unarmed.
Starting point is 00:33:17 I think a fishing boat, right? And then they were like abort, abort, and left. And then they didn't tell Congress about it and they covered it up and we found out last week. And then they brought it up to Trump and he goes, I'm hearing about this now for the first time. Maybe he doesn't remember that he was the president once before. But this is like an administration ending type of thing,
Starting point is 00:33:38 you'd think like what like uh covering it up not telling congress the president not knowing about it um what a tragic embarrassment um and a horrific thing to happen uh you just did the ending for anyone else like and bring that up to van so is he going to say he doesn't give a shit what you call it because that's called war crime too i'm pretty sure um but it's okay because he's the crime president and the war president and put them together and we're in perpetual warfare forever that's what perpetual means
Starting point is 00:34:15 It's just the the cavalierness Is that a word? It's just casual cruelty Cavalierality Vicious but just dismissiveness all of it So often it's just so obvious What's about to come out of my mouth
Starting point is 00:34:30 Total lack of regard for human life At all Across the board And everything this man does and touches. Whether you are a civilian, it doesn't matter. He wants his buddies to make money. He wants to do his things. He's going to just plow right through, decimate our economy, war on our citizens, but also just this. It doesn't matter. These are just some Koreans. Let's just kill him and cover it up. Let's just bomb this boat, this Venezuelan drug boat,
Starting point is 00:35:05 because that's going to look good for our, well, it doesn't, the optics do not look good, but for whatever skewed rationale that they have, it doesn't matter. The loss of human life is irrelevant. Yeah. And they're making it more and more and more normal as the days go by and making it more and more acceptable
Starting point is 00:35:25 to the people that might have a problem with, I might have had a problem with it years ago, who knows, it's more normal, it's more accepted, and they're just going to use, use that to probably, I don't know, they're going to do a regime change in Venezuela. I don't know what they're going to do. They got a bunch of troops on the Mexican border. They've talked about invading Mexico.
Starting point is 00:35:45 That's what Vivek wants to do. So we're going to take more of Mexico. All kinds of things. But even if not, clearly, they're just going to keep blowing people up, probably fishermen and not care. And it's just no good. but luckily we've got a hero in the White House because he is the guy
Starting point is 00:36:11 who took down Epstein as an FBI informant He's our guy Already walking that back Huh? Johnson Mike Johnson is already saying I shouldn't have said that
Starting point is 00:36:27 He already walked it back, yes that is correct I want to say that Some people online were saying no he's amending it. He's like, actually, he worked for Russia. No, he didn't say that, but he is walking back that he should have said he was an FBI informant. He probably shouldn't have said that. What information did you have? What information was he using? Why would you try trotting that out, too? You're just creating a bigger mess. I was only there to get directions on how to get away from there, and that's when the FBI stumbled upon me. Like, who does the FBI tend to turn as informants? What kind of what kind of people? People who had information. criminal activity innocent men who have a club innocent heroes who just have a club and nothing happened there but something did and he fired him but then didn't do anything about it it's unclear it could be a departed situation where they recruited him because he looks like the kind of person that could be involved in something they approached him or not yeah they approached him but not in the way
Starting point is 00:37:26 that's bad they didn't approach him in a bad way they approached him in a way it was like so you know this guy right? We've heard bad things about him from a woman who describes you and him in the room talking about young girls.
