This is the five-time award-winning majority report. We are broadcasting live steps from the industrially ravaged Gowanus Canal in the heartland of America, downtown Brooklyn, USA. On the program today,

National Affairs correspondent of the Nation magazine host of the Time of Monsters podcast, Jeet here, will be here. Also on the program today. I did the worst one yesterday. Garrison lovely.

I said, we'll have a lovely interview for you. So I know. No, no, yours is worse. War Powers Act fails in the Senate, 50 to 49, as Iran once again offers Trump an exit ramp for his disaster of a war.

Only 24% said Biden. Trump DOJ removing oversight on dozens of formerly segregated school systems. Report U.S. military laying groundwork for a potential invasion of Cuba. And a federal judge orders ICE to fix squalid conditions at the New York City Detention Center. All this and more on today's majority report. Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, it is Casual Friday. Casual Friday.

I'm not even one of the most casual Friday I've ever seen in my life. Oh, yeah. You're in a T-shirt. First of all, it's a long-sleevee t-shirt, but I've worn this before. He has worn this before. Oh, I guess I just never read it. This is in the rotation. It means laundry has not been done for an extended period of time.

Okay. Okay. Good to know. I thought you had a second divorce. No, no. You need to get married again for that to happen. All right, we got a lot to get to yesterday, BB Netanyahu was at the United Nations.

I think we played a clip the other day of, I guess he was there Wednesday. we played a clip of him of literally seven-eighths of the assembly getting up and walking out as he began to speak. He was not deterred. And here he is claiming that Israel is actually doing the opposite of genocide. What would that be? What would that be? Natalism?

I don't know. What's the opposite of genocide? just having a lot of kids? I have no idea. But I do know that some of the things he cited were strikingly similar to that Professor Galloway that we said the other day. I guess the talking points have gone out. Here he is claiming that the actions that Israel has taken in response to immense pressure from the outside of the. Of course, all of these actions too, coming way too late.

And after three years almost of active slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza, here he is. But remember, Israel hasn't committed genocide. But who here has denounced Khashran Pikes? We've taken innumerable steps to protect the security. population. Is this genocide? Of course not. It's the opposite of genocide. So to all those spreading these lies about my country and about our brave soldiers, whether they sit in this hall or in the office of the anti-Semitic mayor of New York, I say this, shame on you. Shame on you for distorting the facts. Shame on you for inverting the

victim and aggressor, shame on you for spitting in the face of truth. Mr. Mamdani, since you were elected mayor of this city, many Jews no longer feel safe in New York. They talk to me. I'm sure they do. This isn't the city we remember. I don't think so quickly. Now, it's no wonder. You praise criminals convicted of supporting Hamas.

Pause for a second. You count as friends. As a Jew in New York, it's interesting. I've never had the opportunity to speak directly to BB Netanyahu and tell him whether I'm... That's what I said. If you have access to him, you don't count. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. All Jews don't have him on speed dial loaded up into their phones at their bar mitzvahs.

I thought that that's the rite of passage that I've been hearing about. The app that I got was discontinued, I guess, after some of the things that we've said on this program. But I just, you know, it's funny because he just hasn't, BB has not called me to see how I'm doing. Go ahead. You count as friends, people like Hassan Piker, who said America deserved 9-11. America deserved 9-11.

Some friends you have. You invite into your home a Palestinian journalist who filled Hamas terrorists beating and torturing Israeli hostages. later admitted that he refused to publish the videos in order to protect, you guessed it, the terrorists. I mean, so I love the idea. Hassan Piker said America deserved 9-11. I just saw it as an immense opportunity and I was gleeful about it. And the New York Times at the time reported that I was basically suppressing a smile and talked

about it as an immense opportunity to entangle the United States further in the Middle East and achieve Israel's objectives. So which ones better, which ones were? Just to clarify, when you say I, you were quoting Netanyahu, or at least paraphrasing. Yes, yes. Thank you for saving me. I want everyone to know, I condemn not only Hassan Piker, but also chamevigalant. Wow.

So-called progressives are actually regressive. Yes, they are. So this is for his domestic audience, clearly. Apparently, Likud has been putting up a bunch of billboards about Zoramam Dhani all across Israel. Hassan, I'm not sure if he's made it to the big stage yet, but he's another useful foil for the anti-Muslim hate that is just completely saturating Israeli society. And that is a way for Netanyahu to try to present himself as the savior who's going to protect them. from the scary Arabs and Muslims. And that's basically how he's made his entire political career for the past 25 plus years of

mostly being the prime minister of Israel. Let's play this clip number two. This is an Abby Philip panel. This is still ongoing. It is obviously, I mean, the fascinating thing about this is it is a campaign issue, but largely, to the extent that it's a campaign issue, it is largely a, a, an internecine fight within the Democratic Party.

And here is this panel. And among young Republicans, most also said that they had little or no confidence. He himself is a very unpopular figure.

Well, as he should be. The thing is, is the definition of genocidal intent comes from his own words, his fellow Israeli officials' own words. I don't know why people here want to give them cover when they were willing to say their genocidal intent. And here's the thing. As an Arab Christian, I also didn't like the part in his speech where he tried to use Arab Christians

to give him cover for what he is doing, saying that somehow this is a safe space, that Israel is a safe space for Arab Christians. It is no, that's not the case. The fact of the matter is he said that the works. Arab Christians are second-class citizens, first of all, in Israel. They have separate schools. They cannot serve in the military so they don't get military. benefits. So they're second-class citizens.

They're not second-class-class-ist. But beyond that, he talks about the population. The reason why there's so many Christians in Israel is because Palestine is a place of a holy land for Christians and that population existed before Israel. Listen,

true. No, it's not. I'm going to like what I'm going to say on either side. Oh, my. Did Scaramucci just wake up? Jesus. You know, again going back to uh... what uh... galway said the other day because this is obviously one of the talking points that's out there when he talked about the

percentages with the numbers of people being killed was not sufficient for his made-up definition it in it was a made-up definition of genocide there is a specific definition of genocide the term did not exist before uh... world World War II in the Holocaust, and the term has relevance outside of how we might use it in the

vernacular, the term has relevance because it was codified by the UN. There is no mention of percentage. There's no mention of numbers. That is not relevant in assessing genocide. the what the the the the the the Serbs did was found to be genocide and I believe there was less than 10,000 Bosnians killed it's irrelevant and the it is fascinating to watch like this whole cohort of Zionists white-knuckled hanging on to their pedantry when it comes to talking about that term.

Yeah. Again, you know, at the end of the day, the term is irrelevant. The reality is what counts. And the reality is you have tens of thousands, at least 100,000, and maybe many more, who have died and will die as a function of what Israel has perpetrated just in the past two years, two and a half years. never mind the entire history of subjugating Palestinians. Exactly right. And just one more point on Netanyahu because we didn't really touch on it.

How small does he look going after the mayor of New York City like this and obsessively focusing on him? You're supposed to be a world leader. It makes Mom Donnie look immensely powerful. And the reality is that maybe not in like the traditional sense, he's not as powerful as Netanyahu. who, with the bully pulpit that he has created and the credibility that he has gotten in his belief in universal human rights and actually caring about human beings, that is a genuine threat to the messaging from the genocidal Israeli state that wants to complete the job. Imagine Xi Jinping coming in complaining about like Asman Gold or something. Karen Bass. I think the thing also to keep in mind, though, is that in Israel, the number of New Yorkers, who have moved to Israel, and particularly amongst the West Bank settlers, is very high.

And so in many respects, he is hoping to sort of undermine Mamdani through those folks and also, as you say, play to his domestic audience, and that's a big part of his domestic audience. I don't know about the Twitch streamer folks. that the Hassan Piker thing I don't I mean man you imagine getting mentioned at the UN I know

I'm just stop for a moment and talk about how insane that is the bro tips guy the guy when I was working with him at TYT he was doing like you know at least some right tips for dating and things like that and now he's I mean I'm very proud of him honestly like that's like that's the kind of thing we're like

hang your hat on that. The, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, hitler of our time calling you out. His haters, uh, online, you know, a lot of the, uh, discord slash Twitch people, um, were gutted to see Netanyahu do it because they're like, now hating Hassan became uncool. Uh, yeah. Well, Trump still hasn't said him by name. mainstream. Trump still hasn't said him by name, I think. He's talked about like the 9-11 comments and the Twitch streamer thing, but he got Netanyahu to say his name before

Trump, which is fascinating. Probably like, I have a pretty. I have a prediction that that moment is going to be when Hassan looks back on his career, the second most thrilling moment of his career after getting the congressional medal from a future president. Oh, inshallah. In a moment, we're going to be talking to Jit here. He is, of course, the National Affairs correspondent at the Nation magazine, host of the time of Monsters podcast couldn't be more apropos.

But first, a word from our sponsor. We've talked about Zoc Doc for quite some time. When I, now it's two years ago, I was out, had a dental emergency on one of my vacations. I was in an undisclosed area. Of course, I had no idea what any dentists are around. I didn't want to go on Yelp if they have any ratings. And Zoc Doc is fantastic for this and just for finding any type of medical provider at any time. They have something like over 200,000, I think, medical providers in their registry crossing over 130 different specialties.

maybe you're looking for an orthopedic or I don't know a what is dermatologist or a dentist Zoc Doc is totally free and I want to thank Zock Doc for sponsoring today's episode Zock-Doc-Doc solves the frustrating parts of finding a doctor you can go on to their site you can search by symptoms that you have or by specific things that you want out of the doctor You can find out if your insurance covers it, if you're in network, and right on the site, you can book an appointment. You don't have to go back and forth and negotiate with the person working at the front desk, with all due respect to them.

But that's a huge pain. And Zoc Doc is super easy. Often you can get an appointment within 24 to 72 hours. And again, Zoc Doc totally free to use. your health matters and taking care of yourself shouldn't be complicated are you ready to be seen head to zoc doc dot com slash majority to get started check that appointment off your to do list that is z o c d oc dot com slash majority and take quick break when we come back g here we'll be with us we are back sam cedar emma viglin on the majority report real pleasure obviously

it is uh every time he comes on welcome back jeet here national affairs correspondent the nation magazine host of the time of monsters podcast and every time you come on jeet well i don't know if i say this every time but time of monsters man oh man uh yeah you get too too much monstery well maybe you can i don't want to say that actually uh knock on wood but um uh we are uh certainly in a time of monsters and also just bizarre. Well, I think the UN meeting itself was a kind of display of that. I mean, like, because one got to see, I guess, the glory of the American on the world stage for all the world to see.

And I think Trump's, like, speech at the UN, you know, like a lot of it's very familiar stuff. But, I mean, like, what he actually said is worth paying. attention to because there was a sort of dismissal of climate change. He called, he said that, you know, he might be, have to, like, destroy Iran. He said, like, there's not going to be any regulation of AI. And also that they're calling for the end of the international criminal court in order to protect Benjamin Netanyahu. Now, if you take all those things together as a kind of position, what you got is the United States is a rogue suit. superpower. The United States is basically saying, you know, laws, we don't care about your

thinking laws. And these are, by the way, laws that the United States itself helped create. So, I mean, it's coupled with that with, like, Chairman Xi coming from China. And I think the sort of, you know, I think in the future, if there are any people left, and they will write a book on the beginning of the American Century of Humiliation, I think that the photo of like Trump wincing like a little child while the aircraft flies head while she like kind of looks non-falced.

I think that maybe brings up the difference between the two countries, you know, like a clown on the world stage and then, you know, a rising power that is willing to like happily watch its main rival destroy itself. And to put a data point on this, the foreign buying of

U.S. Treasury bills, and this week we saw treasury rates spike, the foreign buying of treasury bills has fallen 80% year over year. And so that is an indication of where the rest of the world anticipates America's future is headed. Yeah, yeah. Not great.

Not great. No, no. I mean, as another from data point i believe it was the denmark that uh removed all its gold for the united states you know like uh i i i i i i mean one of the things that has kept the united states a great power despite like you know like having disasters like vietnam and the first iraq war was that it was seen as a safe place to invest uh and it was a reserve currency of the world that meant that was easier for the united states to like borrow money uh and uh this is all like changing very rapidly And I think, you know, like when we're talking about the T bonds and the, you know, withdrawing of money, like what that means is that American money is going to become more expensive. It's going to become, this is in real world turns. This means that your interest rates are going to go up. Your credit card rates are going to go up. It's going to be even more impossible to buy a house and get a mortgage, like in the future. This is what is happening right now. And if the United States, you know, God helps us ever gets into like a real financial crutch, then like, you know, the investment. are not going to be there to bail it out.

As they were, even after 2008. So I think this is like, you know, the Trump is, you know, through his actions preparing a very dark world. And I think the new announcement that the U.S. will, like, you know, might be putting an export ban on diesel. I think that reinforces that.

Because if you're a European country and you're, you know, you're invested in the United States and this is like your safe haven, What does that mean if, like, during a time of crisis, they won't sell you diesel. This actually, like, is, you know, the sort of future devaluation of the dollar. There's a real path for it now. Yeah, I mean, the, and I would, the only thing I would actually take issue is that it's happened overnight, because on some level, this is like the, the idea of an actor who is out there

auditioning for years and years and years and then gets suddenly discovered. This has been building. I mean, because you made the point, like, even after the financial crisis in 2008, it didn't change the U.S. standing as basically the most stable, predictable country in the world. I mean, that is when people say they're going to invest and they're going to buy our debt, They're, it's an expression of us being the most stable relative to the rest of the world. I mean, yeah. So, like, we do horrible things.

We create a huge crises, like in Iraq and the Middle East, where like we're doing with Iran, well, what we're doing with Iran, I think is on some level in terms of the impact for the rest of the world of another order. But it is, we have gone far enough as a country. showing that we are unstable to sort of break out of the structural understanding of what America is into a different realm. And yeah, no, I mean, it should be understood. Like, there was like huge historical events that made the U.S. the sort of source of stability. It was the two world wars, basically, which, like, devastated Europe and Asia. And like, like, left the U.S. as like the last man standing.

and out of that, you know, grew this long-lasting, decades-long period where the U.S. is the sort of, you know, bulwark and bastion of international order. That's gone. Like, you know, you one still sees, I think among some of the European elites, there's still this nostalgia and this belief, like, well, you know, once Trump is out of there, you know, maybe we'll get him, like, you know, somebody more reasonable. But I think that's like, I think most people now see that. that's a delusion.

And if the people actually have the money, you know, the people who are like the final, you know, the final boss here is capital and capital is getting scared of what's happening in the U.S. It is,

it's going to be fascinating for historians. Maybe less so for the rest of us. Like you say. Well, it'll be fun, it'll be fun to look back on. Yeah. One day we'll laugh. Well, you're a Canadian.

So you're like, I don't know. If you guys go down, we're going to go down with you. I think Carney is profoundly mistaken in thinking that he can quickly build an alternative structure. He's trying. I mean, which itself is indicative. I mean, actually, I mean, I think I will bring up my experience as a Canadian to bear because the Canadian elite, the sort of centrist types in Canada, have been very deeply, profoundly pro-American,

you know, going back to the 1940s. And now a lot of these people, like, you know, when I hear them or talk to them, like they're the most anti-American people because they are the sort of betrayed lovers. They're the people who are really invested in this idea of the U.S. as the bulwark. And now, you know, you have a president that, you know, like basically is talking about taking over Canada or, you know, the prime minister of Canada is the governor. You know, like these people feel profoundly betrayed. and I think it's going to have like

it's impossible to even calculate what the impact of that is but they are very much like thinking about what will it take to build a post-American world what will it take to you know like you know it's like you're in a situation where you're in a bad marriage and you don't know any quick way up

but you're sort of like starting to move some of your stuff into a friend's apartment you're looking for the exit and I think all of America's Eliza, looking for that exit? It is, and like you said earlier, we're going to be looking domestically at higher mortgage interest rates, higher auto loan rates, higher personal loan rates across the board. And at one point, that starts to catch up with the economy.

And if you look across also the attempt by Trump to execute his Donro doctrine, the Greenland essentially signed a new deal with us that basically said it's the old deal. Yeah. More or less. And the, I'll say about the Greenland. Obviously, he's a total farce that he created a crisis and then like, you know, solved it by signing an agreement that's the same. But that actually what he did with free trade in his first term. And I actually thought, like, if Trump follows this strategy, that's like,

the best case scenario, right? That is the best case scenario. And then you declare victory and you go back to the status quo. Like if he could do that with Iran, we'd be laughing, right? But like, like, unfortunately, he's also created messes that are so big that they're not easily, you can't just declare victory and go back to normal. But unlike the USMCA, which, you know, basically just more or less maintain the status quo with what we had with NAFTA, maybe slightly.

improved it actually in some ways there was no price to pay but all of this stuff with Greenland essentially like you say the Danish took their gold out of the country yeah the it it is just one more data point for the rest of the world to realize like we're completely out of control and also ineffectual yeah you know you mentioned And Xi coming here, it's basically almost like he just was taking the mantle. And I'm not, you know, for the sake of this argument, I'm agnostic as to whether the U.S. should be the hyperpower or whatnot. China seems to be doing quite well in many areas. But it was almost like he came to sort of take the scepter from the U.S.

In the Donroe doctrine, I think outside of being able to coup Venezuela and put money into somebody's bank account, according to Basant, it's at Citibank. We don't know who's count it is. We just don't want bank it's in. But outside of that and what this feels like a potential invasion of Cuba, none of this has, they haven't done anything even on their own terms. in terms of like creating a, you know, fortress Western, U.S., North American hegemony, I guess. No, no, no. I think that's exactly right.

I mean, I will say, like, you know, I think it is in the Western Hemisphere that he has actually exerted the most power. Very much in the sense of, like, getting these elections. Like, I think he's, you know, put his thumb on the scale of various elections that were very close. So the U.S. has, like, you know, sort of friendly regimes. But I don't know how sustainable that is. Certainly, like, you know, like the typical pattern for the 20th century has been that, like, American imperialism in, even in its neighborly states, has consequences.

You know, like it was, people forget this, but it was like the American coup in Guatemala that radicalized Che Guevara. and like, you know, like, you know, leading up to the Cuban Revolution. So I don't know what's going to happen in the minds of people all across the Southern Hemisphere as they see, like, you know, not even the pretense of like democracy promotion or the good neighbor. Like Trump is saying, he at the UN, he said this about Venezuela. To the victor go to spoils. And, you know, like, like, just open plunder of, like, resources.

I don't think that's a model for, like, relationships. You know, you will have some satrappy regimes that will like, you know, filled with these kind of like vitchy figures that will like, you know, kiss your ass and go along with it. But you're also going to like in the long term create a lot of popular anger. And it's not a sustainable model at all. And we should say when you talk about interference with elections, I think we're nine days out from election in. in Brazil and they have meta and some other social media companies basically turned off his accounts. I've seen reports of that. Yeah, yeah. I mean, that is the other thing. There has been like these widespread attempts that sort of regime change. I think most successful in Latin America,

less successful, but with some influence in Europe as well. I mean like people like Elon Musk and Trump are clearly trying to, you know, like push the sort of global right. And, you know, one shouldn't like under-apposite. Germany's looking a little disturbing. Yeah, yeah. I mean, yeah, possibly the far right in Germany, what could possibly go wrong? All right. Let's turn to the elections.

We are now, let's see, six weeks? Less than 50 days, closer to 40, I think, right? I'm not going to do math right now. But we're close. We're close. It's September 25th, November 2nd or 3rd, I think it is this year. We're close. And we're, it feels like we're at like a bit of an inflection point where I'm reading more and more that not only the public polling is looking dismal for Republicans, but the internal polling is looking dismal for Republicans.

but the internal polling is looking dismal for Republicans. And yet, I want to go through some of these races, and we've got some clips of some of this information. Well, let's actually start with all the things that one would expect for a maybe not just a wave, but a tsunami. Well, I think the most interesting thing is like we just look at where Trump is campaigning. It's campaign in Oklahoma and Tennessee, right? And Alabama, well, he's going to a college.

He's going, this is insane. Yeah, just to, I wrote this down too, G. He's going to Alabama and Oklahoma next week, just for fun. Then he's going to a Tennessee, I think Vol's probably, or Vol's football game. And so he, and they're not, what? Oh, no, and they're not, they're, meaning he's, all of the candidates in battleground states are being like, stay away, stay away, don't come and rally with. with me. And so he needs to get his energy out somewhere. So his staff is like, just send him to

red states and he can, you know, feel like the king there. Yeah, yeah, no, no, exactly. And this is actually very different than, um, uh, in previous Trump winning campaigns. Uh, I mean, like, you know, like, in 2016, you got to give the devil those dude. Trump was out there campaigning, unlike Hillary Clinton, campaigning in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, because those are the, you know, the, um, the swing states that you need to win. And in 2024, I thought it was very interesting that Trump was doing rallies in New York and not places he's going to win, but just to say, you know, like, I can stick up my claim even in the bluest blue state and there are people there who will come to me. This is very different than that, right? So I think that itself is very

significant. I mean, like, next there'll be, like, let's just hold rallies at Mara Lego, you know, like, let's just try to keep this guy. So, so, so I do think that like, you know, like all the indications, And, you know, like, people who are, like, the experts on this, like, you know, cooks and whatnot. Like, they're all showing, like, you know, places that are tossed up turning towards lean, damn, you know, places that were lean dam turning to, like, you know, very likely dam. Like, there's a, you know, the overall picture is very good. Well, you know, one has to have the proviso that, like, you know, like, all these races have a large local element. and the dangerous part is, you know, in some of these places, people could lose, you know, depending on the candidate.

And the other aspect I'll put out there is money, which is very different than like any other election before. Like just the amount, the degree to which the billionaire class has totally gone with the Republicans I think has really no precedent. And then, like, in everywhere, the sort of like spending money that the Republicans have, is way, like, much larger than what the Democrats have. I want to look at some of this footage number nine from Harry Enton, but before we do, two things that people should keep in mind.

One is that because of redistricting on a congressional level, because of gerrymandering, and because of self-sorting in some respects, the number of House seats that can be in play is far diminished than it was four years ago, eight years ago, 12 years ago, I mean, dramatically so from like even 15, 20 years and particularly prior to 2010. The number of seats that can actually flip because, you know, you're not going to flip a plus 20 Republican district. You're not going to flip a plus 15 Republican district.

But the wave could be enough that we're flipping plus 10 Republican districts. We'll see. And the other thing to keep, you know, when obviously when we do election coverage, we'll talk about this. Usually, the number of House seats that flip will indicate one's chances in the Senate if you calculate in how many red state senators are up for election, how many blue state, et cetera, et cetera. I think we're going to see a different ratio this time around because of that dynamic where it's harder to, flip in Republican districts, then it might be in the state that they're in. Yeah. But just keep that in mind. But here is a couple, I want to play a couple of clips to show just how on a, you know, so-called secular level, how favorable things are for

Democrats right now. Here's Harry Anton with polling on, I think these are independence, if I'm not mistaken. Play this clip. This is number nine. Brand new CNN poll shows President Trump at a record low in terms of his approval rating, but that only tells part of the story, because as bad as that sounds, there might be worse. With us now, seen in chief data analyst Harriet. And so he's talking about that overall number that's bad. You look below that and there's some wow here. There are some stunning numbers. And I want to talk about independence, but independents who don't lean towards either the Democratic or Republican Party, so-called pure independence.

And these numbers and the shift from where we were back in 2024, I mean, look at these numbers. And this is an average of two different polls, pure independent voters on Trump versus Kamala Harris. When you average the CES and Pew validated voter survey, he beat, he beat, Donald Trump beat Kamala Harris by 15 points. Look at his net approval rating now with pure independence, those who don't lead towards either the Democratic or Republican Party. It's negative 71 points. I mean, these are the deep depths of the ocean. You never see numbers like these. This is Johnny B. What is this?

This is an 86 point shift away from the president of the United States with the group that ultimately really does determine elections. As pure independence go, usually so goes the nation. And right now, Donald Trump is at depths that truly you rarely ever see. I mean, 86 points. 86 points. It's almost impossible to conceive of a number bigger than that in terms of a swing, except... Except what if you ask, pure independence about Donald Trump and the economy?

Okay, look at this. This is a 99-point shift. What are we talking about? Pure Independence, Trump and the economy versus Kamala Harris. He was more trusted on the economy by 22 points. That's why pure independent voters decided to vote for Donald Trump and put it back in the White House for a second term. look at these numbers now, though. His net approval rating is minus 77 points.

It's minus 77 points. In fact, I was looking at our CNN poll. The voter approval rating for Donald Trump was like 7%. 7%. That's what we were talking about here. Now, again, this is an average of the polls. But if you just look at that one, it's like 7%. 7%.

That is literally this. That is literally this. When you can put approval ratings on your two hands and you're not even taking up the full two hands, you know it is low. a 99 point shift, and now at negative 77 points, and it's not just one, Paul, I'm averaging multiple surveys here. Oh, my God. Yeah, I mean, you're... So, and I, you know, one caveat for this is, I suspect, and I don't know that I don't have any data

in front of me, but I suspect pure independents are going to vote less in a midterm than they might in a presidential election at a at a at a to a greater extent than than then even your regular partisan voters so the those numbers aren't necessarily um uh indicative of what outcomes are going to be but those people are walking around amongst their friends you know what i mean like they're they're creating the the context in which this is happening and so we've got Democrats have a real should have a real advantage regardless of the candidate and you wrote a piece about what's going on in Maine

which there's two stories here one is Susan Collins is being hit with what appears to be multiple scandals one being this sort of pay to play by a government contractor who Martin Cowell Yeah, who, from Novotech, who also seems not only putting aside the Susan Collins thing,

was getting government contracts to essentially do nothing. Like, I don't know if they were playing video games, but pretty close. Yeah, no, I mean, this is a company that had like a wonderful kind of like setup where they would like use shell companies to funnel money to super PACs for people like Susan Collins. who would then encourage the Pentagon to greenlight their weapons programs, none of which the Pentagon seemed interested in or would end up buying, but, like, you know, would enrich the company a Novotech to the tune of tens of millions of dollars. And so, yeah, I mean, the ProPublica did the reporting,

and it's pretty, I mean, the CEO of this company is currently in jail. he tried to like you know save himself by testifying the FBI and it could have been the columns would have been in trouble except Donald Trump became president and he fired all the FBI agents they're handling any sort of government corruption cases and but I mean the sheer sleasiness of this guy is like really worth underfitting so so one of the shell companies that gave to the Super PAC was called a scientist, female scientist and

engineering engineers. Now, scientist in a sort of singular. So he couldn't even have like a plausible name. And then he was encouraged by the Collins campaign to say like, you know, you got to make it look like your legitimate thing. Like can you also give money to some like women engineers?

And the CEO said, did so, but he said, you know, this is just a pack of bitches getting money. It was a really like incredibly sleazy character who was like incredibly tight with Susan Collins. So yeah, one would think that this would be causing her problems. And we have to say, though, that the mainstream media coverage of this,

certainly relative to like Platner's coverage, for instance, is virtually non-existent. I will say, though, it's breaking out into local media in Maine. I talk to people who are in Maine. And this is actually, I think, the greatness of ProPublica, because there is a nonprofit, but they do the reporting. They're very good and trusted. And so the local, like, it's all, apparently all over, like, Maine radio,

local newspapers. So I actually think that, you know, the fact that, like, the Washington Post might not give it the attention it deserves. I don't think it's as significant as a fact that this actually, I think it can break through in Maine. Here is another thing that is breaking through in Maine. This is Troy Jackson's campaign about Susan Collins in another scandal. As a retired junior high teacher, I'm horrified. Susan Collins voted to cover up the Epstein files.

She knew 14-year-old girls were raped. Turns out that Jeffrey Epstein's business partner funneled $3 million to her super pack. Susan Collins took the money and protected child predators. Troy Jackson cracked down on child sex trafficking. We can trust Troy. Winston's responsible for the content of this ad. So with all that in the play, there has been a piece written by Rebecca Traster, who is in Maine.

She lives in Maine. And it's about the transition from Plattner to Troy Jackson and the Platner people who were initially with Troy Jackson. And essentially, the campaign arm of the Senate Democrats, Chuck Schumer, Kristen Gillibrand, essentially taking over the campaign under threat, of cutting off funds and tell us what the outcome has been. Yeah, no, for example, I should mention Rebecca's like a terrific reporter.

And as you said, like really on the ground in Maine. So Jackson himself, like he ran as a replacement to Plattner after that fiasco. And he, I think, was successful because there was like a new primary because he was running a very different personality, but the same basic message of populism. He's like, yeah, working class candidate, friendly towards Bernie, wants to talk about Medicare for all. But suddenly, you know, the campaign needs money. These Washington consultant types come in, and they're also eager to, like, you know, make Plattner and all of that history. They don't like the fact that their preferred candidate had been pitched out.

So they, like, have remade Troy Jackson into being the campaign candidate that they wanted to win, which is a centrist candidate who is like, you know, trying to appeal to moderate voters to like give less salience to the sort of, you know, economic populism, less salience to the standing with the Palestinians on Gaza. And I think this sort of mixed messaging is really hurting him because it's not who he is as a candidate. And it's also like, you know, if you're like a, you know, I mean, Plattner went overwhelmingly and Jackson went overwhelmingly, and the voters wanted one thing,

and they're getting another. And that's a recipe for demoralization. So, and, you know, like, there's conflicting polls, but, you know, New York Times, which is, you know, a good pollster. They showed for the first time that Collins is pulling ahead. So, you know, like,

I think it would be like a real travesty in this year of, like, not just a blue wave, but maybe a blue tsunami, if Collins is able to eke out another, victory like that's just uh uh it would be a travesty and and we should also say uh one uh i've heard reports that uh troy jackson is uh just um apoplectic about this but again you're you're being threatened with uh a huge amount of funds being withheld uh you're in a you're in a box particularly when there are tens of millions of dollars being poured into susan collins

campaign. I mean, she is a firewall for these corporate interests. The other thing is why I think that that sort of like scandal with the Super PAC is so significant because Collins has always been able to win because she has the money behind her. So I think if you can make an

issue, we know why. We know why, yes. Yeah. You know what would be also interesting. I mean, like this is a really important narrative to maintain both because, it talks about the future of the Democratic Party,

but also because it is just self-evidently true. Janet Mills, Chuck Schumer's original camp, you know, choice. Yes. Or she flamed out, like, shockingly. I mean, a shocking flame out. Yeah, you know, she basically did not even like campaign. Like, she was like, like, the most sort of entitled candidate, like, imaginable. and like kind of, you know, when Plattner got into like his sort of controversies,

he was basically just like, set out of message, oh, I'm still here, you know, which is like, without like, like, bothering to do the work of campaigning. And now, I mean, like, you know, Jackson's been the candidate for a while. She has refused to endorse him. Like, that is an amazing. I mean, what's going on there? Like, supposedly she had a problem with Platner because she knew things and heard the rumors, etc., etc.

What's the excuse to not endorse Jackson? He threw a water bottle. He threw a water bottle in the near vicinity of a female lawmaker. So I'm not sure if you heard about that, Sam. I didn't hear about it. I didn't realize there was a water bottle of throne. The idea that you could have politicians who are, you know, have temper problems.

That just seems impossible to me. And I think it might have been over health care. or something like that, by the way. Yeah. Lowering prescription drug prices. Right. That was the real reason why she's pissed about it. I mean, manners are more important.

She didn't like the reason. But this is a really important race. And if the Schumer-Jillibrand crowd manages to Deep Six, Troy Jackson, they should be held to account. Yeah, yeah. I mean, Schumer's whole behavior, because, I mean, as you mentioned, he was the one that went behind Janet Mills. I mean, like, say what you want about Plattner, but he would not have done so well against the better candidate. Like, Schumer, you know, like totally has been a pernicious influence.

And I think we're seeing this actually in a lot of races because, you know, this is the other thing. Like, I think the Democrats have the people, but the Republicans have the money. I think in Texas you're going to have like the first $100 million Senate race, like more than $100. million dollars being spent, almost all of it on the Republican side. And this makes Democratic candidates very vulnerable and needing money. And so Schumer is using, you know, his access to like try to get all the Democrats to tone down the messaging, to run as more moderate, even though I, you know, that's not what the primary voters wanted. And that's actually not a good message in a year where like, you know, like everyone is angry.

You know, like, you know, this is a change election and you're having Schumer, you know, saying to all his candidates, you know, run as, you know, we're going to keep things slow and steady. You know, this is a disaster. And Elon Musk is the one who's spending a lot quietly in Texas. It's not getting enough attention, but Elon Musk is spending a lot on behalf of Ken Paxson. and Cornyn, part of why the... Oh yeah, let's play this clip. I sent it. Corning was asked

this is just, you know, from a few minutes ago, I think. You got to appreciate personal resent and retribution when these Republicans lose in their primary and suffer the humiliation of having

to be, you know, ousted as an incumbent Senate to your own primary and to a I like Paxton. That has to be really, really demoralizing. And here's how you cope with it if you're John Cornyn. So you're not planning on helping them at all, fundraising. That's correct. That's correct. Why is that? Well, for all the reasons that we pointed out in the primary, I think, you know, the risk for Republicans is if we nominate flawed candidates in November, we risk losing. And we haven't We haven't elected a Democrat in Texas statewide since 1990, well, before 1994.

And this is the way that, you know, majority parties become minority parties by nominating candidates that are less than appealing to a general election electorate. Does he deserve to be a senator? Say it again. Because he deserved to be a senator? I'll let the voters decide that. Well, what's funny is that the voters already decided that you weren't representative of their interests in the Republican primary, buddy. Like, the amount of sour grapes here, it's just, like,

he, he, the Republicans obviously wanted Cornyn to be victorious because he has an enormous war chest, and he's been a Senate creature for a long period of time and has the ability to fundraise. But they were also upset that Paxson really, they took it to the runoff. So they weren't even able to get a head start on Talarico because they were tied up in a runoff where they had to expend extra resources. And the other thing that's interesting is that Trump is sitting on, what, $400 million in his super PAC? That's my money.

And he's barely, he's barely, he's barely spending. And we have five weeks until the, the, the election. I sure. But I mean, I think that's, I get it into my account. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I think when Don Jr. runs in the 2028, you'll need the, uh, that, uh, that

money. I think it actually don't a dumb idea on Trump's part because the robocans are not wanting for money. I mean, like, I think, you know, the billionaire class is really aligned with them in a way that it's like, without, I mean, usually they try to like split the difference. And like this time it's not the case. I mean, there's an interesting parallel between the two parties that, you know, the sort of party establishments is unhappy with the candidates being picked and they have sour grapes. But I mean, on the Democratic side, it's because the primary voters want people, you know, who are, against the endless wars and want Medicare for all on the Republican side. It's because, you know, like, the primary voters want like these lunatics.

I don't know, gee, maybe you can answer this question for me, but the delta between what the Democratic Party wants as articulated by the voters. and how sort of nakedly some of these politicians in the Democratic Party are trying to stake out other positions that are clearly a function of the donor class that they have been courting and building over the years. I don't know if I've seen it more stark, right? Like part of it is Israel. There's a donor class that is insisting or a part of the donor class that's insisting, you know, they're not going to give money to candidates that are articulating a problem with the genocide in Gaza and Israel and support of Israel. But also you can see it in the context of like of things like, you know, we saw it during like the, the, the, the, argument about Lena Khan and that whole antitrust stuff like antitrust uh the AI I I think I it's actually interesting a lot of these organizations work together like these sort of you know

the uh APAC and the Asia lobby you know over the last decade have really formed alliance with AI and with the sort of yeah what's the opposite of antitrust the pro trust people you know like the monopolist when you know like people who don't want uh regulation monopoly capital. And I think the Democrats, and the problem with the Democrats is that, you know, this is also their funding base. And so they're constantly compromising. I mean, I thought, you know, the way that, um, uh, the attorney generals handled the, um, uh, Paramount Warner deal is like, like, I mean, which is the worst possible way to do it. Because they held out the promise that they're going to do something. Like, it is like literally

like losing with the football, you know? Like, we're going to raise your hopes, make you think that we're going to do something. And then like, you know, like, you know, like, totally cave in and compromised. What we're seeing right now in that case, too, we should say a federal judge has said, slow down for a second. We need to examine this more. Like, when the judge gets out ahead of all of the prosecutors, both statewide and federally, on an antitrust case, that is a rare occasion.

And, you know, you got to think, like, who in the world would possibly stake out a position against antitrust unless it was just completely motivated by donors. And let's play this clip of Gavin Newsom who I think like he realizes and they are trying to run from this but he realizes like, oh,

I'm on the wrong side of this issue. Yeah, yeah, no, he died. The voters. And so what am I going to do? I'm going to be brave. I'm going to stake out a position. and I'm going to say it was actually these guys' fault. I didn't pressure anybody.

I made the point. I made it very publicly and consistently and been reported maybe two or 300 different ways that we, me, many folks, including the mayor, soon to be governor-elected, and others, preferred in the words of Rob Bonta himself, that he focused on getting this done at the boardroom,

not the courtroom. And the minute that Rob said that on CNBA, see we amplified that, said this was a better approach. So that was the framework. And, you know, he worked hard to deliver for California. And I think he did. And one by from the FTA right here. The boardroom as opposed to the courtroom. In other words, we're asking pretty please be nice to us. And if not, eh. And I mean, that's, it's amazing that he said that because I mean, the boardroom, you know, where the wealthy get together and do their Exactly. It's preferable to the court of law where the rule of law applies.

Maybe hold it at French laundry. Maybe hold it at French laundry, right? Wasn't that the fancy restaurant that he was caught at? Yeah, just make it completely privatized and outside of public opinion, Gavin Newsom. You're really meeting the moment here. Yeah. No, no, I think these are all like 80, 20 issues. And it's an incredible crisis of American democracy that, like, you know, like the, you know, the, you know,

the Iranwar, AI, antitrust, it's not just Republicans and Democrats. I think you could pretty much get 80% of the American public on one side, but they're not getting their way because the 20% that are on the other side, you know, like it include billionaires, includes almost all of the billionaire class. I mean, he's saying their smoke-filled rooms are good. Anyway, sorry. Preferable to the legal system that this is like, you know, created by our democracy. I mean, it is perhaps one of the most neoliberal perspectives you could take in that scenario.

Yeah. I actually think that this is going to be, to me, this is the end of Newsome. Like, I actually don't think he's going to survive. What we're going to see is the Warner deal go through, and you're going to see massive layoffs in California. You know, like, because it's like the, you know, like the deal involves a lot of debt, and they're going to like, you know, so-called reducing redundancies. They're going to try to use AI to make up like all the lost labor. It's going to be a huge disaster and he's going to own it.

The amazing thing about that deal is they got very little because all of the promises they have basically expire within four or five years maximum. Yes. And they have absolutely no way to enforce it. Yes. So like, you know, by the time that they even could take a case to court and attempt to enforce it, it's going to expire. And so it's a complete waste.

And I have no evidence of this. But when he says, I was just quoting what Rob Bonta said with the boardroom and not the courtroom, my guess is that Newsom said to Bonta, this is what you should say. And it's sort of like, you know, weapons of mass destruction. Scooter Libby and Dick Cheney tell Judith Miller to write in the paper. And then they go on TV the next day and go, look, it's in the New York. times. So it's not coming from us. Yeah, no, no. I mean, that's clearly

this kind of, you know, plausible deniability. But I don't think it's going to work. I actually think this is like hugely damning to Newsom. And we're going to see it like play out because I think that this sort of you know, you know, like, because now like, you know, like to pay for this like, you know, buyout,

they're going to make an alliance with like Elon Musk. So you're going to have like Elon Musk basically like having a huge stake in CBS and CNN. well, this is a good guy unfolding disaster and Gavin Newson owns it. Yeah, and he's overestimating himself, I think, too, as well. Like, that Charlie Kirk interview that he did, like, I mean, I think that when we're talking about a base of primary voters, there are a lot of black voters that remember what

Charlie Kirk said about black people. And like, that was evident, I think, in some of the backlash to the attempted hagiography that we saw. I don't know, especially like he's willing to meet with like Charlie Kirk and I guess Joe Rogan, but not me with like Hassan, right? Like I think like that's, yeah, I really, it's hard for me to see like a future for this guy. Like he's kind of like sticking out of positions that are really going to hurt him. Like because we know what Democratic primary voters want. We've seen it all year. And it's going to be, I think like even much more intense in 2028.

And this is, and the thing that I, um, this. the positive aspect of this is that this is going to open up a lane for one candidate in that primary to stake out a very, very strong antitrust position, maybe multiple ones because they're going to want to create differences with a guy like Newsom. And Newsom is super vulnerable on this now, like you say. And so that's going to encourage other politicians to take that lane and take it forcefully. And that is a, and there's a,

there's multiple divisions, multiple agencies in, Zoran Mondani's, um, uh, uh, administration right now, that are ready just to,

um, get on the Amtrak and move down to Washington, hopefully in 2029. Um, Jeet here, always a pleasure. Uh, we will,
