You know, welcome to our Trash Revolution.
I'm so up.
I'm your host, Hugh.
Our co-host today is someone that is new to the program.
So I want to introduce to you guys.
It's Sabrina Salvati.
She's the host of the Savvy Sabs podcast.
Welcome, Sabrina. How you doing?
Hello, thank you so much for having me on.
Yeah, no problem.
Look, we got a lot of great stories I'll get to in a second.
But tell us a little bit about this Happy Sabbaths podcast.
What's it about and give us a rough,
to give the audience a rough sense of where you think you are in the political spectrum?
So my show covers domestic and foreign policy from a left perspective.
I myself am registered no party affiliate.
I came from the Bernie Sanders movement.
I've been strongly encouraging people to get independent candidates out there.
That is one of my big goals to try to get.
a slate of independent candidates in Congress. And I know it's very challenging, obviously,
because of the way the two-party system is structured. And I also employ people to try to see what
we can do locally as well. So I'm an organizer, I'm a podcaster, and many other things.
All right, I like it. So, and we're trying to give everybody a wide variety of opinions here.
We've gone everywhere from Joe Kent, Marjorie Taylor Green to David Soroda, Glenn Greenwald,
Sabby and tomorrow John Kyriaku is going to join us.
So all right, so let's get started then.
We got a lot of amazing stories.
First one starts with a doozy.
And goes A-PAC.
So you might not have noticed from all the mainstream media celebrations of Francesca
Hong losing in Wisconsin.
But A-PAC actually got devastated again in elections last night, mainly in Minnesota.
So we had Flanagan, who was going to be.
was a progressive candidate and was lieutenant governor in Minnesota running for Senate against
Angie Craig. Now, Angie Craig was mainly funded by APAC and whenever they lose, the mainstream
media, of course, all of a sudden goes radio silent. I said, no, not a big deal, not a big
deal, okay? Everybody's serve APAC, but remember, APAC has no power. So how much does she get?
Let's take a look. Here's Angie's profile there on a track APAC, $710,000.
But you know, that race is over and Flanagan won by a lot, around 20 points.
And Angie Craig, to her credit, then immediately endorse Flanagan.
So that's good.
And Flanagan said this, Craig was only Minnesota Democrat to send 2,000 pound bombs
to Net Nyao and has had an incredible amount of support from APEC.
They've been her biggest funder throughout her entire political career.
My values did not align with APEC.
I'm not taking their money.
And I think that this matters when it comes to how we engage in foreign policy.
I show you that statement from Peggy Flanagan from before the race was called because I want you to see what a factor that was in the race.
She ran against APEC and won super comfortably.
And it's a beautiful day in America.
And then you know, you see our candidates on the left being smeared by mainstream media 24-7.
Oh, they're going to cancel Thanksgiving and they're going to release all the prisoners.
So for example, did Flanagan run on any of that? No, this is what she ran up.
Election is about a fundamental choice and who our government serves the many or the money.
And right now too many families are being crushed because it's corporations and billionaires
who are calling the shots and leaving working families to foot the bell.
It's the child care payment that costs more than your mortgage, a check and a check and
engine light that forces you to decide which bill can wait, a trip to the doctor that you're
putting off, or quietly asking your child to put something back on the shelf because you don't
have enough money in your account. All across Minnesota, people are working hard. They're budgeting,
sacrificing, taking care of their families and doing everything right. And yet they're still
falling behind. Life shouldn't be this hard and it doesn't have to be this way, but it is
because somebody benefits from it being this way. And it's not you and it's not me.
So I wanted to show you that because I wanted you guys to see what they're actually running on.
They're running on real life issues related to you. They're running against corruption.
They're saying, why don't we spend the money at home instead of fighting wars for other nations?
And that is why they're winning very comfortably.
And that is why mainstream media has to throw out a thousand flares to distract you and try to get you to hate progressives.
And look, whether you're on the right or the left, you have to concede mainstream media has attacked every progressive candidate and attacked none of the insiders.
the ones that claim to be objective.
And one more race in Minnesota that was important.
And that's Matt Little's race.
So he was trying to replace Angie Craig.
So that way we'd get a progressive who beats her in the Senate race.
And then her seat in the House would get picked up by a progressive if Little wins.
So now we go to drop site news coverage again on that race.
In a three-way race, one candidate, Matt Klein was unapologetically supportive of Israel.
While two others Matt Little and Kayla Berg have been critics to varying degrees.
Given the numbers, the path of victory for Klein was clear.
He needed little to be brought down by boosting Berg, splitting the boat between the two
progressives and needed big money to get himself past both of them.
So what did Apak do?
They not only gave to Klein, but they surreptitiously gave to Berg as well to try to knock
out Little.
Now we don't know if Berg asked for that money to be fair to her, but bottom line is
APEC funded those two.
And how did it turn out?
Little crushed them.
So down goes A-PAC, down goes A-PAC in yet another race.
So Sabie, let me bring you in here, because to me the giant headline from yesterday, and
we'll get to Francesca Hong in Wisconsin in a second, but the giant headline should be
A-PAC defeated again, and no matter how much they spend, they keep losing and losing.
But instead we've got wall-to-wall, mainstream media coverage of, ah ha, the left wing lost.
They lost in Wisconsin.
They're losers and failures from the objective press.
So what do you make of all this?
Yeah, I think it's really interesting.
I think that after Thomas Massey's race, I think that APEC felt as though they were teaching
candidates a lesson that if you are not pro-Israel, we are going to throw every dollar that
we have against you, and this will teach you a lesson.
But it doesn't seem to be working.
And I think this is this message that is happening right now, more and more people are moving
away from this type of lopi interest money. And more and more people do want our money spent
right here at home. And all of this focus that's on Israel, more Americans have moved away from
that. But what it goes to show you these races that we saw today and of course the ones the week
before is that you can beat the money if you are strategic. You can beat the money if you have
an excellent ground game and that you shouldn't look as though I cannot beat this because
they're pouring all this money at it. Now, it does make it more difficult. Yes, indeed,
but you can beat that money. And ultimately, what I would say to people is that this needs
to be studied. People need to look at what those candidates who were able to beat the large
dollars against APEC, what it was that they did on the ground? What strategy did they use
to combat millions of dollars that came into these races? Yeah. And part of that goes to the statement
I'm about to read from Matt Little, which is very similar to what Flanagan said in the video. But I want
to pay attention to each of the policies.
He said, we need generational change in strong progressive leaders.
You're here on then.
If we're bold and brave, we can pass Medicare for all.
Now I'll pause there to say that that polls a 65%.
Universal childcare, that pulls, I think, at over 80%.
A wealth tax, I think that pulls at around 76%.
A moratorium on data centers, I think that might pull it over 90%.
And we need to overturn Citizens United.
That pulls it over 90% and get dark money out of our politics.
same 90%. Let's win this thing. So now, if you turn on cable television or you read the New
York Times, did you get a sense that Matt Little and Flanagan and all the progressive
candidates have enormously popular issues that they're running on? No, no. Instead,
you got that. It's like Thanksgiving. They're going to take the stuffing right out of your
mouth, these monsters, right? So which brings us to how they covered Francesca Hong. So she was
running for governor in Wisconsin, and she is to the left of me. And she is DSA, I'm not DSA.
And she did have some of these positions earlier. And she, you know, had a late, you know,
statements about pulling them back. So look, part of it could, and she barely lost, just so you know,
39.81 to 39.33 with 98% reporting, good enough to be called. But by the way, that's close enough
that you could ask for a recount.
And so the Politico asked me, I said, this is kind of a hilarious thing to quote yourself,
but she said she got clobbered.
I said she got clobbered by national media, which is unquestionably true,
didn't respond as deafly as Abdul and didn't have some,
didn't have enough time to build a counter narrative.
The negative publicity for the last two weeks seems to have taken its toll.
Hassan Piker said electability in the primaries and harm reduction in the general still carries
lots of boomers when it's paired with a barrage of negative earned media plus no defensive
TV ads plus no national progressive endorsements all in all an unbelievably impressive showing for
a DSA Wisconsin ground game. So and of course, mainstream media's reaction was the exact opposite.
Axios had the headline. Socialist fever breaks take away from Crowley's win. Crowley is the one
that defeated Hong. So I'll get to more hysterical reaction in a second. But let me bring
savvy back in. So savvy, there's a lot of topics here to discuss. One, I could say, hey,
listen, I told you guys not to run on these super unpopular positions like about, or not to even
have them, like abolishing prisons and defunding police, et cetera, right? But I don't do that.
I actually think, hey, you know what? We all should have gotten together and said, that's
not her main promises at all. She's not even promising that, let alone prioritizing it. She's
He's prioritizing universal child care, et cetera.
And I don't know that I did enough to help her, but I do know that very prominent people
like Bernie Sanders and AOC chose not to endorse her.
And that created doubt.
And I mean, just a smidge less doubt and she probably wins.
So I am curious and I don't know what your take is.
So what's your take on all of that?
I did hear from some of the residents in Wisconsin about this race.
I put a call out for people to contact me and tell me what they saw happen on the
ground. And there's a number of things. The big one, the current governor choosing to basically
anoint David Crowley made have been a big impact on voters, constantly telling voters that
she was not going to be able to win in the general election, them hearing that over and over and
over again, that created doubt. And so they thought that not necessarily so much that all of
these people were against her policies, but more so that they really felt as though they were convinced
by the current governor that she could not win in the general election.
We saw something similar to this in 2020 and 2016 with Bernie Sanders, where I heard people
say that on the ground as well.
They were convinced by the media that he could not win against Donald Trump.
So they voted for Hillary or they voted for Biden.
So a similar situation that I heard from people on the ground happened here.
You mentioned TV ads.
Another one that was brought up to me, I did ask people, did you see any TV ads?
Some people reached out to me and they said they saw one or two. Some people said they didn't see any. So what that tells me is that if there were TV ads, they weren't as frequent. Little statistic here for people to understand. When you're talking about a network television, I did look this up. So about 32 to 36 percent of Americans are watching or subscribe to cable network television. During that time, about 72 percent of that are ads.
So it is very important to have television ads and to show them frequently.
I live in Massachusetts, I can't tell you how many I've seen so far for Seth Moulton,
who is running against Ed Markey.
They're just, they're on repeat.
So that really does make a big difference, especially for the voters that are over the age of 65.
They tend to watch network television, not as much of the streaming platforms or are on social media as much as like a lot of us, right?
So that does make a difference. And then ultimately, I think a big part of it is, you know, some people apparently, I was told were turned off about the comment that she made about Thanksgiving. But I think the big key thing here is when the current governor is anointing one of the candidates and says, this is the person that you should support. Well, then it's it's kind of hard to beat that in a sense.
So, Sabby, I want to get into which ones you think are more important. But I don't know your position on these.
abolishing prisons and defund police, et cetera.
So what's your take on that?
What's your position on it?
And how harmful do you think those policies might be or not?
So I support defunding the police.
I've had debates with people on my show about this before in the past.
But what has been very clear to me is apparently when I have this conversation with a lot of
older voters, they do not support defund the police.
They're turned off by it.
Garland Nixon and I had a debate about this a long time ago.
And he said the fact that you have to explain to me what it really means, that should send a sign to people, right?
And I said, well, defund means to defund. It means to remove the funding and to put those funds into community programs.
But I have noticed that, that a lot of older voters are turned off by it.
So I think that does turn some voters off.
I personally think that she should have, you know, just stuck by what she said.
I am starting to see some of these candidates start to backtrack on tweets that they had from years ago.
I mean, we have a president in the White House right now that has said insane things and is doing insane things.
Nobody's asking him to take back his statements.
So this is where I think that these candidates and just Democrat politicians in general,
they have to have a little bit more gusto to stand on what they said before and sound like they have some type of conviction, if that makes sense.
I know some people are really disappointed about this race in particular, but what I would say to people is that, you know, I see electoral politics as one tool in the toolbox. There are other tools that need to be utilized. And I always encourage people to do, you know, mutual aid to run these ballot measures. If you live in a ballot initiative state, there are other things that we can do on our end to get some of these policies implemented, at least on the local level. And I have seen that happen in states like mine, like Massachusetts. So I think,
we should never put all of our hope or energy into a candidate, and we should always look at
what we can do as well. Yeah. So I think that some things are super clear. Like they always have
a money advantage, the other side, and that's huge. And anytime you can't overcome their
overwhelming money advantage, then media piles on and goes, oh, you were not a good enough candidate.
We'll come back to the media. But those stuff, that stuff is relatively clear. We just talked
about some of the far left positions and I'm glad to see that people are coming around
to, yeah, it's not electorally helpful.
And then we could have debates about if it's the right thing to do or not.
But obviously the candidates are withdrawn from them.
But I actually do agree with Sabby that whatever you decide to do, you're gonna retract,
you're gonna double down, do it strong, right?
Don't be too apologetic and say, look, this is what I'm gonna prioritize, this is what I'm gonna
run on, and run with strength.
even if I don't agree with you, so on whichever issues.
So and look, why do I support Francesca Hung even though I don't agree with some of those social issues that she's in,
was in favor of?
Well, because I don't want to do nothing Democrat and I don't want to do nothing Republican.
At least she was going to try to prioritize some of the things we do agree on, whether it was childcare,
raising the minimum wage and all the other progressive policies that are very, very popular.
And so before I get to the media, one last thing, Sabby on the relative important,
of these factors. So what's your take on the, on the no endorsements and how much of a difference
I mean? To be fair, our revolution endorsed, progressive Democrats of America endorsed.
Rocana was the only legislator as far as I know who endorsed. And it's interesting because
Rocana is not as far left as Francesca is. AOC and Bernie kind of are on the social issues,
but he chose to endorse to back the progressive and AOC and Bernie.
chose not to.
And they would say to be fair to them, they'd say, hey, that's going to hurt our credibility.
And when she loses, they'll say, oh, it's your fault or whatever, right?
And we don't, and we want to preserve that credibility and we want to win the general election.
And hey, if I don't, you know, want to, or I don't like her positions as much as I like
others, I don't have to endorse.
Sure, of course, everybody's free to do whatever they want.
But what was your sense of how much those no endorsements matter?
how close this race was, I have to question it. I have to question that if they did give her
that endorsement, maybe she could have made it just over the finish line. But it does make people
question. And I know sometimes they usually don't get involved in like these gubernatorial races.
I understand that. But in this race, people are upset and they feel like it could have made
a difference. And maybe it could have, maybe it couldn't have. I'm not 100% sure. But we had
this conversation just recently, also with independent candidate Shama Sahuant, who wanted an
endorsement from DSA. And many of us were like, just give her the endorsement. Like, you agree with
her on like 99.9% of the policies. And what I've come to learn, you know, over the years is that
politicians and organizations, I guess they have different, you know, criteria that they're looking
for. Sometimes they might be afraid to stick their neck out for a candidate if they feel
as though they may not make it in the end. I think Bernie and AOC probably were already told
she has no chance to win the general election. And then it's like, well, they're going to have
that on their record. But to me, I feel like the principle is more important. Do you support the
policies or not? So I think they should have endorsed her. Yeah. Look, if the race was decided by
two points, four points, then it's a little bit more arguable if it made a difference. She lost by
0.4. No, it made a difference. It put doubt into people's heads. And so this is what I call
the shortcating of a candidate. Shortcott Chuck Hrabartee was AOC's chief of staff. He was in
comfortable second place, nearly catching up to first. And the top two make it into the runoff
in California running in Nancy Pelosi's old seat. AOC refused to endorse him. And he dropped
like a rock. They started running ads. You can't trust him because AOC doesn't trust them.
So AOC actively destroyed his chances by not endorsing him.
She saw the ads and she still didn't do it.
So I think we gotta stop short-cutting our own candidates.
Why, you know, this is crazy.
And I'm saying this for a person that doesn't agree with Francesco hung on a lot of the issues,
right?
And Sabby, you know I've had those debates internally within the left, right?
Hey, don't go in that direction.
But when it comes to election time, what are you helping establishmen Democrats for?
No, I mean, why do we have a big tent if you're not going to stay inside the tent when elections come, right?
Then it's kind of pointless.
So that's my take on it.
But I want to show you one more clip from mainstream media.
This is Chris Matthews.
They brought him out of retirement to yell up progressives.
He's on Morning Joe.
Let's watch him real quick.
I like IOC generally, but she came out and said, we're just a big tent party.
With a problem with the big tent defenses, every Democrat has to defend all this crap coming from the left.
They've got to say, I believe in all this crazy stuff, and that makes me a Democrat.
You've got to say, no, no, I'm not a member of the DSA, and here's why, and make it very clear.
So it's going to require politicians to be good politicians and say, here's where I stand.
Right.
This is what I'm a regular Democrat.
I'm for labor unions.
I'm for opportunity for everybody.
I'm for civil rights.
I'm for all the things I believe in as a Democrat, but I'm not with this crowd.
And I think that's going to be a line.
It has to be drawn by Democrats because I'm telling you, the last six weeks of this election is going to be.
be an attack on El-Said and the DSA in New York and the Mandani.
And it's all gonna come out and blame every Democrat for everything the DSA is doing.
I find that segment so ironic, like almost on a meta level, Sabie, because so it's mainstream media and Joe Scarborough and MS now that are constantly screaming.
They're all DSA, they're all socialists, right?
And then they come out and go, no, you have to clarify you're not the else.
I'm okay, but it would help if you didn't say that we're all DSA when we're not.
And now like the onus is on us to prove that we're not radicals or something.
Well, how about the Republicans?
They have like loads and loads of lunatic radicals.
But no one ever says Herschel Walker represents the entire Republican party.
And if every single Republican doesn't actively say I'm not with Herschel Walker, just to pick
one of their crazy candidates from the past, then you're all Herschel Walker.
So this is only done to progressives, doesn't it show that mainstream media in reality,
let alone being liberal media, which is hilarious, is actually in a lot of ways, including
MS now, our biggest opponents, because they're the ones who smear us the most.
Unfortunately, corporate media, they're the ones that control the narrative.
And the Democratic Party, they fight harder against the DSA than they do against Donald Trump.
And it's very apparent.
They want to keep the establishment in place.
This is ultimately why some like myself, we have been trying to get behind like independent
candidates or third party candidates.
And it's very hard because the Democratic Party will, you know, kick off Green Party
candidates on the ballot.
And the Republican Party will remove libertarian candidates on the ballot sometimes.
So that's a battle that they have to deal with.
But I think that this is why some of us have said, you know, I wonder, you know, if,
people like Ilhan and Rashida Talib, you know, if they had the opportunity to do so or if they had the,
I say the resources to do so, would they have been better off if they had their own political party?
I wonder that. And this is why some of us we were calling for more independence to get in there, right?
Because these politicians, they still have to answer to Chuck Schumer and Hakeemperes.
And before that, Nancy Pelosi, and now you have these commentators that are coming out of retirement, that are coming back on corporate media to say, no, this cannot happen in this party.
It's very clear that they want to keep the establishment in place.
So that's why many of us wonder, like, would they have been better off if they just would have been independent or maybe they got in the way that they did and then they became independence or if they had a separate party?
And that's a whole other conversation.
And we know that's something that's not easy to do.
But this is why more of us have been advocating for independence, people that can kind of break up that duopoly in Congress.
And of course, the mainstream media reaction to that would be how dare you you're betraying the Democrats?
And that's why you should definitely not vote for Abdul al-Said or any of these other progressives in their elections.
But wait, which one is it?
Is it vote blue no matter who?
Or if the establishment corrupt candidate doesn't win, all of a sudden, all of the establishment Democrats betrays.
the progressive who was in the race, right?
So to be fair, now a lot of the establishment has come back around Abdul al-Said, but
that's their inclination and what they've done in every race.
So I understand the frustration.
And so even if I don't agree that we should break off or right now, for example, will there
come a time when the, if the Democratic Party regains control and just establishes that supremacy
for their corporate and corrupt positions, yeah, of course there's gonna come at time.
Like Tucker and MTG, et cetera, are doing it on the right at some point, people on the left
are gonna go, if you're gonna keep us out of your primaries, you're gonna not give us a fair
chance to win these elections, well then you're pushing us out of the party and there's nothing
we do.
I think all that will come to ahead in 2028 and how they handle the presidential primary.
I think if they run a fair primary, then maybe the party can stay together.
But if they run a super unfair primary where they try to push out progressives again, then we're gonna have massive trouble.
Where the super delegates decide to give a state that one of the candidates won to another candidate, that's that's the thing.
And the Republicans don't have to worry about that because they don't have to deal with like the super delegates.
But the reality is like in the Democratic Party, we watched this happen to Bernie Sanders, right?
like in 2016, Bernie won states like West Virginia and the superdelegates decided that they were going
to give that state to Hillary Clinton. That is the wall that a lot of these progressives end up hitting.
And so I ultimately believe that some of these progressive politicians, I think some of the
reasons why they're walking back some of their previous statements from like 2020 is because
they want to get that approval from the super delegate so that maybe they can break through, right?
Like maybe AOC thinks if she does this, maybe she can somewhat break through.
But we never really know, but I just know that the superdelegates tend to look out for the
establishment.
And I'm not 100% sure the Democratic Party learned their lesson from 2024.
I felt like we were largely ignored.
Many of us that were advocating for Gaza, many of us that were saying no more wars,
the demands that we had towards Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, I feel like we were very much
ignored and I'm not 100% sure that the DNC really cares even now. And so that is rather concerning.
No, I'm pretty sure they don't care. So they, yeah, I don't think they learned any lessons from
2024. In fact, they tried to bury the lessons that they learned through their autopsy.
And yeah, the establishment and Nancy Pelosi and television being so friendly to AOC scares me a little bit.
Do they know something we don't know?
And we are worried about that.
But hey guys, don't forget to celebrate by getting your A-PAC tears mug at shopty.com.
Because last night, don't lose track of the actual headline.
We collected a lot of A-PAC tears.
That's at shopty.com.
All right, when we come back, there's a bombshell.
The ADL admits to spying in on Americans on the left and the right.
And they might even have, or apparently they do have agent provocateurs who are trying to instigate
you so that they could, you know, apparently maybe get you to do something wrong so that
they can take away your freedom for criticizing Israel.
It is disgusting and we're gonna show that to you when we come back.
And I'm gonna read these blind largely t.y.com members, childless cant lady says, yes,
Savvy.

Brummer Dragon Cat says those in the Washington DC bubble just do not understand how many of us out here are feeling stressed to desperate.
A billion percent cat, they don't understand that at all and they don't really care even if they did understand it.
Nerd Ferguson says, okay, Sabby's awesome.

Wow.
Okay, great, Jonathan.
Thank you.
Cinco Media says genocide may in fact be more controversial than Hassan Biker.
Of course, not if you listen to mainstream media.
They're like, genocide's no big deal.
Slaughtered 23,000 children, incinerating them.
alive is no big deal at all, but did you hear what a son Fikers said? Right? A bunch of freaking
liars. A YouTube member with it, Gals, sitting here depressed in Wisconsin today, Hong should
should have won the primary. Feels very suspicious when the polls had her far ahead leading
up to you. All right, back on TYT, Jenkinsabby with you guys today in Sorrow 6269. Thank you for
hitting a beautiful join button below and becoming one of the young Turks. You guys make this
honest show possible and I love you for it.
also do it through t yt.com slash join and that helps a lot. All right, let's go to the next story.
The non-sectarian anti-Nazi league kept going into the 70s and mid-70s when James Sheldon died.
And the anti-defamation league has been spying ever since. And I was speaking at a fundraiser
years ago where Jonathan in L.A., where Jonathan Greenblatt flew in. But I want access to
your spy records.
Not contemporary, but the old ones.
And he said, no, because we're still spying and still using the same techniques.
Wow.
Did we all know that the ADL is spying in on Americans?
We've got a lot more on that, and I want to ask Sabby about it in a second.
But that was historian and USC professor Stephen J. Ross, and he was talking about
Jonathan Greenblatt at the ADL.
And Sabby, I want to show you one more clip from Ross because these admissions are stunning
and they're saying it like it's no big deal.
And apparently everybody on the inside already knew it.
And if you guys didn't recognize that laugh, I don't blame you, who can recognize a lap.
But that was Rachel Maddo thinking that that was hilarious that the ADL spies in on innocent
Americans.
So let's watch more from Ross.
And I said, what are you talking about?
I know what your techniques are.
You send in, they weren't really sending in agent provocateurs, but they would ask members throughout the country to go to these meetings, to take notes, and to send them to their local chapters, which would then send them to headquarters.
And they had, yeah, they would eventually have a few agent provocateurs, but that wasn't their main objective.
But I thought, okay, you know, you don't want to do it, that's fine.
But I guess he was trying to protect the names of those in the past.
Sabby, there's a lot to break down here.
And I'm going to get to Greenblatt's comments where he basically gave a confession.
It was kind of amazing.
But before we even get to that, so they infiltrate all of our different groups on the left and the right,
as Greenblatt's going to explain it a little bit.
And apparently a lot of people in Washington know this, that ADL is spying in on Americans on behalf of Israel.
and that they also have agent provocateurs to what, instigate things to get the group in trouble
and then use it as a pretense to, what, arrest them, take away their freedoms?
I think like it's perfectly normal.
This is not normal.
This is crazy, isn't it?
Yes, a lot of this happens on X, formerly known as Twitter.
A lot of these accounts that don't have a face or it's like a picture of a cartoon or something
like that. I watch people argue with these accounts. And I just look at the page and see when was
this account created, what's the activity on it? And it's very clear, a lot of that activity
does take place on these social media platforms like X. There's also infiltration in discord groups
as well. But basically, we are losing our right to privacy here in the United States.
And this is something that I look back on Edward Snowden. And I feel like, as Americans, I feel like
we failed Edward Snowden. I think part of this has to do with the fact that, you know,
during the Obama era and there was this whole at that time, you couldn't really criticize Obama.
That's really how it felt. But looking back, how Edward Snowden tried to warn us, they are watching
you, they are spying on you. I feel like America, we really should have stood up for Edward
Snowden at that time. But this is happening under the Trump administration, but it's bipartisan.
And under the Biden administration, we saw this crack down on privacy and an increase on censorship.
When it came to the O'Huru movement and Chairman Amalia Shatela, the DOJ came after them and said,
we are going to indict you because your emails show that you may have been thinking about entertaining people at Russia.
Now they're trying to tell you what you were thinking.
It's very dangerous.
And I said to myself, if this can happen under the Democrats, what's going to happen if Trump gets back?
I can office like both of these parties support this invasion of privacy and they do support
obviously increasing censorship just on different issues.
Under the Biden administration, we saw censorship increase with the pandemic.
And under the Trump administration, now the censorship is coming about Israel.
And my biggest fear is Marco Rubio listed these individuals and these organizations.
I'm afraid that the Trump administration is going to try to make this law or this rule that it is
going to be illegal to criticize Israel in this country. And I know that may sound far gone,
but look at what's happening in the UK. I mean, they have really strict, you know, laws around
this kind of thing now. People are going to jail. And so if we lose our speech, we lose everything,
you guys. Yeah. Look, nobody knows that better than me. I got banned from the United Kingdom for
criticizing Israel. It's mental. The West is supposed to stand for freedom. And they literally
took my freedom of movement away from me because I've criticized Israel. And that's not all.
Obviously, we had the student protesters get arrested, get put on blacklists, so they're never
going to get hired again, brutalized by thugs on the pro-Israel side here in L.A. at UCLA.
And then the cops watched as the peace protesters were beat, and then they arrested the peace
protesters. So this oppression is over the top. And it's amazing how they're almost bragging.
about it on air now. So now we're gonna show you Jonathan Greenblatt, the head of the ADL.
ADL is supposed to represent Jewish Americans. It stopped doing that a long time ago.
It's only representing Israel. And in fact, I see them attacking Jewish Americans not supportive
of Israel all the time. And 63% of Jewish Americans are against the current Netanyahu government,
but the ADL is 200% in favor of Netanyahu and all the crimes and the wars and the genocides
of this particular government in Israel. And they don't care what
Jewish Americans.
And by the way, they're endangering Jewish Americans by sending Jewish Americans into spy
in on all these different groups.
You know, why love that they had like, I forget if it was Passover or other meals that they
had together at Columbia and the peace protests.
I love that there are Jewish Americans in the peace movement on the left, the right, etc.
But now that we know that there are spies sent in by the ADL to spy on behalf of a very
Israel, that's going to make people suspicious. And that doesn't help Jewish Americans. That deeply
hurts Jewish Americans. But they don't care all in service of their beloved Israel. So watch
the things that Jonathan Greenblatt admits here. We have a whole apparatus. I have 40 analysts
working full time, seven days a week, 24 hours a day, monitoring extremists. We monitor them
online, social media, messaging apps, video games, cryptocurrency.
podcasts, short form video, Wikipedia, LLMs.
We monitor these people and we share the intelligence with the FBI.
So we're monitoring left-wing radicals like the DSA and the anti-war crazies and the pro-Palestine crazies.
We're monitoring right-wing extremists like white supremacist, our militia groups.
We're monitoring political Islamists and Christian Nash's, all of them.
And then we train.
We're the largest trainer of law enforcement in America, extremism hate.
We train 20,000 officers every year.
Oh my God, I mean look at all those admissions in there.
So they're targeting people on the left and the right, DSA.
If you're pro-Palestinian, you're getting targeted.
If you're pro-peace, you're getting targeted.
If you're on the right wing and they're just gonna call you Christian nationalists or
whatever they're gonna call you, you're getting targeted.
And you're all being infiltrated by a group supporting a foreign government.
And this is not normal.
This is not, they keep saying, oh, it's normal, everybody does it?
Really? Does Finland do that?
Are the Finnish infiltrating our groups on the left and the right?
And then working with the FBI and turning them in, turning them in for what?
For being Americans?
For daring to support your own country rather than this country that is committed a genocide
and apparently is infiltrating all of our groups as spying in on us
and then working with our government to target us?
That's insane.
And then he brags about,
oh, yeah, we've got the police too.
But remember, we have no influence and no control at all, at all.
But we're working with the FBI and the local police,
and we're targeting everyone who is in pro-Israel,
and we're going to get them.
Okay, Jonathan, thank you for the confession.
We appreciate it.
That is disgusting.
It is un-American.
It's a betrayal of this country.
And by the way, any police organization or the FBI working with these guys under the auspices of fighting anti-semitism,
when I think that in reality they're increasing anti-Semitism, and they're all doing it for the benefit of a foreign country.
If you're working for a foreign country, there's a word for that.
It's called traitor.
And I don't care if it's Sweden or Israel or Bolivia.
It doesn't matter.
But it isn't Bolivia.
Sabby, is it?
It isn't Kazakhstan, it isn't South Korea, it's Israel, and every time you say the, just repeat
what they just said, they go, how dare you? We're allowed to say it, and we're allowed to spy
and infiltrate and try to get you and take your freedom away. But if you dare, repeat my own
quotes, anti-Sami FBI investigative, investigate him. I mean, so Sabby, you've probably been
investigated because they said social media, podcast, short form video, that covers all of
of us. So yeah, I might be, you know, high enough on the list that I literally get banned
from countries and they put me on top 10 lists. And so I know exactly how it feels to be targeted
by Israel inside your own country. But the reality is apparently almost all of us are targeted.
I mean, I just, I think this is the most out, one of the most outrageous things I've ever seen.
What do you think?
We're going to have to cross political lines for this one, guys. Like you can't, like this is a time
You have to put political, you know, your political party aside.
This is impacting every single one of us that criticize Israel.
So this is not about left and right right now.
This is very serious.
And as you can see, they're trying to take more and more of our freedoms away.
And it's scary.
It's very concerning.
I've been warning people about these online groups.
I would tell everybody, be very careful.
I don't think any of these platforms are confidential.
I don't think your Twitter or your ex-DMs are.
confidential either. I think all of these things can be seen that includes telegram, that includes
signal, these other messaging apps that people use as well. I don't think anything there is actually
private. And so you have to be careful when you're in these online forums, in these groups.
You don't really always know who you're talking to. And sometimes there are accounts that come in that
try to stir up that type of energy and try to pull information so that you might end up on that
list as well. That list originally started out from Marco Rubio, started out with those that went to
Cuba to do humanitarian aid there, like Code Pink, Medea Benjamin, and all of them. But interestingly
enough, all of those people and organizations that are there also criticize Israel. So I think that's the
big key there. I don't think it's just about Cuba. And if they come after them, if they start
to defund them and debank these organizations, they can take down anyone. So I think that's the way
they're gonna try to get people to be quiet and zip their lip about their criticism of Israel.
If they take your money, then they take your freedom.
Yeah, they're definitely gonna go for debanking. We've shown that in other videos.
And Jonathan Greenblatt's at the head of that parade as well, we're gonna take your money,
but we don't control anything. The Israelis don't control anything. We're gonna pretend that all
Jews are on our side and you're all anti-Semites, even though 63% of Jewish Americans don't
agree with Jonathan Greenblatt.
But it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter because he's not working for Jewish Americans,
he's working for Israel.
And so, and he says, oh, all of this is just conspiratorial.
It's all anti-Semitic, everything is anti-Semitic, and you'll be punished, Jonathan Greenblatt
says, and we're working with the FBI to punish you.
He looks like a monster, honestly.
And then he'll cry and cry, oh, no, I get to spy in on you, I get to take away your rights,
But if you call me a monster, anti-Semite, destroy him, right?
Right, Jonathan?
He loves to destroy people who don't work for Israel.
And there's these thugs, what I would call a terrorist network inside our country,
that are trying to terrorize any American who doesn't kneel to Israel.
They also have Stopantecemitism.com and Canary Mission,
these disgusting organizations that attack your family if you criticize Israel,
and they think they're totally within their rights,
let's get their husbands and wives fired and destroy them.
And we showed you, the lady who runs Stop Anteemitism.com
went with giant Israeli flags all around Earth,
saying we're tracking and monitoring,
and we're going to get them, just like Jonathan Greenblad.
So, and then he'll go, oh, I'm going to hide behind anti-Semitism.
Watch him say this about the war, for example.
Just look at what happened in the days after the U.S. and Israel
launched the military operations against Iran.
Iran. I mean, whatever your views on the conflict might be and reasonable people can hold very
reasonable differences. What happened next was not about policy. It wasn't about geopolitics.
It was about blame. And the blame, as it so often does, was placed at the feet of
Who else? The Jews.
For some, they pointed fingers at the Israelis who they claimed whispered a few too many times in President Trump's ear.
For the senior senator from Maryland, a state with one of the most large, most active, most observant Jewish populations in America.
He blamed A-PAC, which he slandered as un-American.
He said, and you know what did they do?
They blame the Jews.
No, literally no one blamed the Jews.
Maybe some gory prisoners, but no one on the left blamed the Jews.
You made that up.
In fact, he's hiding behind Jewish Americans.
He's using them as human shields.
No, the people that were blamed was the Israeli government.
But he doesn't want you to blame the Israeli government.
He would much rather have you blame Jews in America.
Because then he could use that as a device to protect his beloved Israel.
Oh, Jews are gonna get harmed in the way.
He doesn't care at all.
As long as Israel is protected, I'm very curious about his coordination with the Israeli government.
So very, very, I don't know if we'll ever have an honest president who doesn't spy on Americans,
but actually protects our country and finds out who's actually coordinating with foreign countries to betray us, including
Jewish Americans? So which evil anti-Semites blamed Israel for the war? Well, let's find out.
The second question that been asked is, why now? Well, there's two reasons why now. The first is
it was abundantly clear that if Iran came under attack by anyone, the United States or Israel or
anyone, they were going to respond and respond against the United States. The orders had been
delegated down to the field commanders. It was automatic, and in fact, it bear to be true, because, in fact,
In fact, within an hour of the initial attack on the leadership compound, the missile forces
in the south and in the north, for that matter, had already been activated to launch.
In fact, those already been pre-positioned.
The third is the assessment that was made that if we stood and waited for that attack to
come first before we hit them, we would suffer much higher casualties.
And so the president made the very wise decision.
We knew that there was going to be an Israeli action.
We knew that that would precipitate an attack against American forces.
And we knew that if we didn't preemptively go after them before they launched those attacks,
we would suffer higher casualties and perhaps even higher those killed.
And then we would all be here answering questions about why we knew that and didn't act.
So that's Marco Rubio who got paid $5 million in campaign contributions from Larry Ellison,
the number one donor to the IDF.
Larry Ellison reported back to the Israeli ambassador that Rubio is now going to be completely
pro-Israel and support whatever Israel wants.
And even he said it was Israel.
The New York Times said that it was Israel.
Netanyahu in the situation room, the head of Mossad on Zoom,
convincing Trump that they couldn't block the strait of Hormuz,
their regime change would be easy.
The same thing the Israelis have, yes, whispered in the ears of Trump and Biden
and all of our presidents.
Yes, A-Pack of the Israeli lobby number one lifetime donor to Joe Biden,
Mike Johnson, Hakeem Jeffries, Chuck Schumer, Donald Trump.
and then they all pretend, oh, no, you're all anti-Semites.
No, Sabby, what I see is a disgusting foreign operation to infiltrate this country
and try to make sure that we are supporting with all of our military might and all of our money
and all of our resources at different country.
I think that someone should be investigated, and it isn't us.
It's the traitors who are working for Israel and then having the temerity to use our own police
against us on behalf of Israel.
Right, and this is where we're at now.
I want to remind everyone that Israel has universal health care.
We don't.
I mean, it's just, you know, we are not taking care of our people here.
We're not taking care of our infrastructure.
This country economically is not heading in the right direction.
But there's so much interest in worrying about what works for Israel and what people in
Israel need. And I don't see any other country, anyone with a sane mind, why would you put
another country's needs before your own, before your people are taking care of? But this is
the trick that they're doing. The thing is now, even if you try to just say, well, I'm just
criticizing the government, the message that is being sent is that if you're criticizing even
just the government, you're still criticizing Israel, therefore that is anti-Semitic. It's a trick.
Now, luckily, I think most people nowadays are not falling for it.
And that's another thing. Israel was really panicking right now in a sense that they've lost
worldwide support. Meanwhile, you have these leaders in some of these countries that may support
Israel. But if you talk to the people on the ground, a lot of the people on the ground do not
support Israel and don't support this war with Iran. They are losing their foothold a little bit
here and that's why you see them trying to implement these policies and these restrictions
to kind of get everybody back into the camp because they're terrified now because they for the
first time ever in my life the majority of Americans don't support Israel for the first time ever
in my life and they're not used to that so now they're trying to figure out okay what do we
do and they've tried so many different like types of propaganda information out there to get
people back in favor of Israel, but it's just not working. They're going to come for social media
next. And I warn everybody about this. It's only a matter of time before they start to censor social
media. You're not going to be allowed to criticize the government of Israel on social media.
But that's only if I say we don't try to do something about it. I think one of the things
that we can do, I think those pro-Palestinian protests was a great step in the right direction.
That went on for like two years.
I think we need a movement across this country.
I think that movement needs to be at least 5% of the population to be effective.
And I think that that movement needs to be centered around, obviously, ending the wars and supporting the economic issues that we need in this country.
In other words, we need an anti-war class movement.
And so if we can get hundreds of thousands of people out in the street for pro-Palestine and other issues,
issues, we really need to get millions out in the street for this. Otherwise, we will remain to be
silenced. I mean, we really got to push back on it. The way people are pushing back on the
flock cameras, that's great. Keep doing what you're doing. I mean, like, the data centers are
basically surveillance centers, guys. That's really what this is. So all of the rural communities
that are rising up and they say get rid of the flat, flock cameras, get rid of these data
centers, they're in the right because they know what's coming. So I just hope that at some point
in this country, we could have a massive movement for these issues. Yeah, last two quick things
here. National media is on the other side. So they see all these same videos we do. They will
never cover them because that would hurt their beloved Israel. So they're the most biased people in
America, they're the least factual, the least objective. And so everything they do is in
defense of Israel. And to them, of course Israel gets to spy on you. How dare you? And they're the
number one people who help people like Jonathan Greenblatt call Americans on the left and the right
anti-Semites. They're the ones attacking and trying to destroy people on behalf of Israel.
Okay, but I need everyone to understand the most important thing, guys, is we have to break the
cycle of hatred. So do not give in to these people like Jonathan Greenblatt. We have to stick
together as Christian, Muslim, Jewish Americans, atheists, all of us, okay? So stay together as Americans,
do not hate one another, do not ever blame Jewish people for this. There is a small group
of radical Zionists in this country. They are a minority among Jewish Americans, and they are
obsessed, they have a religious fever and but it isn't about religion. It's ironically about
nationalism. Nationalism of Israel, Zionism above all. And if they have to destroy, you know,
America, political organizations on the left, the right, they have to endanger Jewish Americans.
They don't care. That's why they're radicals and they're trying to terrorize all of us.
By the way, including again, Jewish Americans that get put on list of self-haters. And then they're like,
No, you don't count as a Jew.
I've seen them say it a thousand times.
It's time that we all stood up against it and said enough, enough.
This is America where we're all together and we love each other.
If you want to try to spread division and hatred, yes, there is, unfortunately these days there
is a country for that.
It's Israel.
There's many countries for that, unfortunately.
So, you know, religious fundamentalist countries like Saudi Arabia and Israel who say, yes,
only our religion.
God promised everything to us.
We should crush everyone else.
Well, that's the exact opposite of America, where we say we're all united, we're all together,
there's no one above others, and we have equal rights.
So let's stick together and make sure that we protect this country and all of us here,
not just some of us.
Okay, now we've got to move on to the next story.
So former RNC chair, Rana Romney McDaniel, came out and she thought she'd be clever and she'd attack
Medicare for all and people on the left.
I want to show you that clip and then I want to show you the facts and embarrass her with the
receipts. Watch.
Is this all a gift to Republicans, though?
I don't think we can take it a gift because we don't want to get lazy.
We've got to keep working.
I mean, I'll say out in Michigan, yes, he's a socialist, he's a communist, but just saying
those words, kids don't know what that means.
So you have to say he's going to take, he's going to raise your taxes.
He just admitted he's going to raise taxes on every person.
He's gonna take away your health care.
You're gonna lose that opportunity to pick your doctor.
A lot of UAW members in Michigan don't like that.
We have to define what they're talking about and not just call them a socialist.
I think that's what a lot of Republicans are falling on.
People don't know what that means.
All right, there's so much to break down there.
First of all, she said, Abdul al-Said, he's a socialist, he's a communist.
That's a 100% lie.
And that makes sense, she ran the RNC.
They're pathological liars.
And I get it, politicians all lie and the DNC is not an angel to say the least, okay?
And we've got our massive issues with the DNC.
R&C in this case is just avowed liars, pathological liars.
So Abdul al-Said has said countless times that he's a capitalist, he's not part of DSA,
let alone a communist, but McDaniel lies as usual.
And then we're gonna get to do that.
to the rest of our lives because she says, oh, Medicare for all, that's so bad.
Really? And it's going to cost us so much money. It's going to raise your taxes. Not true.
So a Yale study just came out, Medicare for all would save 114,000 American lives and a trillion
dollars a year. Savings include reductions in administrative overhead, pharmaceutical prices,
fraudulent billing that comes in at over $200 billion, we're giving
to disgusting corporate CEOs who are robbing us blind on purpose, and avoidable emergency
care.
And next step for the study is pure review, but older studies have also found similar findings.
Previous research has shown that shifting the United States state to Medicare for all system
could save roughly 68,000 lives and $650 billion per year.
The new one from Yale says higher, obviously.
And remember, Trump just took away Medicare from tons of Americans.
To be fair, he had to give everyone making about $500,000 a $1.1 trillion tax cut.
Did he?
Did they need another trillion dollars?
But now a lot of you are gonna lose healthcare because the richest people in the country,
according to Trump and the Republicans, needed more and more, more of your money.
Because their greed is infinite.
So what's the result?
Upward of 15 million Americans could lose health insurance coverage over the next decade
because of Medicaid cuts in President Donald Trump's so-called one big big,
Beautiful Act, and the Republican-led Congress's failure to extend Affordable Care Act subsidies
that expired at the end of last year.
So now when you add that on top of that, well, you're going to get a lot more than 114,000
Americans dead because they don't have health insurance.
No other developed nation on earth doesn't have universal health care.
It allows people to die in the streets because they couldn't pay for private health insurance
because they couldn't pay for the yacht of a CEO of a health insurance company that doesn't
need to exist at all. We're not talking about doctors here. We're just talking about health
insurance. They say you have to do it in a private way where we all have to wait and wait
and wait to get a doctor's appointment, where everything is constantly denied. No, you can't
have that. You can't have this. Go die. And give me more money, give me your premiums, et cetera.
And I've got to have a profit margin. And the profit margin has to be gigantic. And we have to add
to it every year and every year. And you owe me all that. All the other countries in the world
that are developed, use the government for health insurance.
And it works without all of that excess, all of that waste.
We save money if we go to universal health care.
In under universal health care and developed nations, they pay on average.
Oh, half of what do we do?
A trillion is a massive understatement.
They pay half of what we do.
This is a total robbery.
One more lie.
She says, oh, UAW doesn't support Medicare for all.
Really? The UAW supports Medicare for All Act. It is endorsed by the UAW. And they say because
no one should have to rely on the generosity of their boss to see a doctor and get the care that they need.
So now I have more to debunker, but I want to bring Sabby in here. So we have the lying media
that tells you Medicare for all is a radical position when it pulls at 65%. So are two thirds of
Americans radical, and then you have the liars, of course, on the Republican side.
And by the way, let's be real, corporate Democrats who keep telling us that this is undoable
and it will lead to us paying more. So break down all those lies from me.
You know, it's insane that they're still telling this lie about Medicare for all after all
these years. But the reality is it is cheaper if we had Medicare for all compared to the system
that we do have now. There's been multiple studies that have been done on this, as you just
showed one of them there. The reality is, I don't think corporate media will ever tell people
the truth about Medicare for all. And then that just goes back to following the dots, connecting
the money, right? Like the shareholders for those networks, Black Rock, State Street, Vanguard,
they are usually the shareholders for like those media networks. And they're never going
to support something like that that you can do, you know, for the people.
So I think that's important to mention.
That's why a lot of times they have the talking points that they have when we start talking about this is what we need to do for the working class for the 99%.
But the reality is part of me wonders nowadays if they still continue to push back on Medicare for all is because they want some of us to disappear.
I have to ask that question, especially after the pandemic, especially after, you know, during that time when people were getting sick.
I have to wonder if they don't want all of us to have health care because they want some of us gone.
And that would fall into these theories about depopulating.
I do wonder that, especially in this country.
But when we have countries that are allies of the United States like Israel or Denmark,
these other countries that have universal health care, it's really interesting when you hear these politicians,
when they say, or these media pundits, when they claim that that socialism, you never hear them
say to Netanyahu that it's socialism. You never see them point their finger towards any of those
other leaders of those countries that are quote unquote allies, A, that what you have is socialism.
And I think that people need to mention that more, right? Like if it's so bad and all of those
things, then why don't you ever say anything to the Israeli government about them?
having universal health care. So the reality is it's a profit driven system. They want to continue
to make money. And that's where a lot of this lies. And they know that well, the Blue Cross Blue Shield
and Aetna that have made a lot of money. And they've ripped off a lot of people. I feel like the
goal never really was to cure people. I feel like the goal is to just provide treatment so you can
still make money. Yeah, so to your point, it's an excellent one on welfare, right? So if a poor person
in America, you know, for whatever reason, we're trying to rise up, or whatever, like, you could
have any opinion you like about a poor person in America, right? Where you could judge him if you like,
et cetera, but he's an American, and I've known tons of people who use welfare to, as a hand up,
and then got up and sustained themselves, et cetera. But at least there are,
America's and you're helping your own citizens.
But our media, both the Republicans and corporate media, which are welfare queen, right?
Israel then takes $320 billion off of us and they're not welfare queens.
And they're one of the top economies in the world, as Sabby pointed out, they have universal
health care, we don't.
They have free college, we don't.
So why did they get to have everything?
We have to finance them.
If we ever help ourselves, we're welfare queens, but if we help Israel, they're not
welfare queens. No, if we're gonna use that term, Israel is the queen of welfare queens,
the very, very top welfare queen in this country, constantly demanding more and more money.
I have to give more health care to my citizens. I have to attack more of my enemies. I have to destroy
more of my neighbors. You owe me money. And for what? You're not even us. You're someone else.
You're a different country. And the part I don't quite agree with you on Savvy's. I don't
I don't think they're looking to kill us.
I think they're just looking to rob us blind.
I don't mean Israel, I mean all the donor class, everyone donating to politicians at the
highest levels, the corporations, and yes, foreign governments.
They're just taking and taking and to the point about who's actually hurting the average guy?
Well, what happened in the one big beautiful bill from Donald Trump?
Here's what Yahoo finance reports.
Middle income Americans will see a rise in taxes by an average of $900.
$900 in 2026, an Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy Report says.
So it turns out Donald Trump is the one that took money out of your pocket and raise your taxes
if you're middle class in America.
By the way, every tax, a break, the Social Security and the one on tips runs out very quickly.
But the tax cuts for the rich and for corporations, they have no deadline, they never run out.
Because the whole enterprise are disgustingly corrupt government.
Their job is to take as much of your taxes as possible and redistributed to the top, to the donors who legally bribed them.
And the job of the media is to say, I don't see it, I don't hear it, and I'm not gonna speak it, that's for sure.
It's super obvious, the donors are bribing our politicians, and our politicians are robbing us and giving
it to other countries, giving it to corporations who don't need it.
And then what does it do?
The effect of that savvy is yes, 114,000 Americans die because we don't have a health insurance.
Americans die in foreign wars we don't need to be in.
And so it's not necessarily their intent in my opinion, but it is the result.
And I think it all comes from the same place.
They don't give a damn about us.
And honestly, this democracy, it's not dead yet because you could still vote, you can still
capture the government and now we see a bunch of outsiders winning now for the first time
in our lives.
But they've nearly killed our democracy with infinite corruption, money in politics that
allowed legalized bribery.
And if once you allow legalized bribery, the mob's gonna come in.
And that's what these corporate packs and foreign government.
and Pax are, they're the mafia, they're gonna come in and purchase the politicians and
proceed to rob all of us for the rest of the time. In fact, they'd be suckers not to, right?
So if big oil doesn't rob you, big farmer's gonna rob you. And if big farmer doesn't rob you,
Israel's gonna rob you. So, Sabby, isn't the only way out of this getting money out of politics.
Otherwise, we're gonna be on this endless treadmill of corruption for the rest of our lives,
while the Ahoes in media tell us there's nothing wrong.
There's nothing wrong.
Back to the minds.
I'm so glad you brought that up because that's what a lot of this goes back to.
The corporate money, the big money in electoral politics is part of the reason why we're here, right?
When we talk about these wars, that's also money in politics.
Wall Street benefits from that, of course, also the military industrial complex.
We're looking at now we have Elon Musk is a trillionaire.
I don't know if people realize how dangerous that is.
Like he already put money towards Trump's, you know, election.
Think about how much money he can throw and toss into elections now.
So we have a big problem.
I think this country would be run very differently if we didn't have corporate money,
this big money interest in electoral politics.
I think you would see sweeping legislation pass across the board.
And I think it is the money.
and then you have lobby interest groups that are also writing legislation.
That should be illegal.
You know, how do we get here?
And so honestly, you end up with a lot of puppets that are in D.C.
You'll have a handful of people that will stand for what they think is right.
And then, of course, like big money will try to remove them from office.
They're not always successful at doing that.
But honestly, you have a lot of puppets that are in Congress right now.
And I feel like it is now the time where they're really starting to feel that heat and that pressure from the voters.
Because some of these people, they're losing left and right.
People that have been taking all this money from, whether it's APEC, whether it's from big oil.
I think Haley Stevens, really, for example, I think she thought she had it in the bag.
I really do because she had the endorsement from Clyburn.
And she had so much money that was coming in.
And it's just, I think it's now that time where more of them are starting to feel that heat and feel that pressure from the voters.
Here, here, if you're on the left or the right or the middle, please keep putting pressure on incumbents.
The incumbents are crooks, vote almost all of them out unless you're positive.
They're not taking money in politics and they're serving you.
There's only a couple of them anyway.
Vote out all the other bombs who are here to rob you and get money out of politics.
Otherwise, the robbery is going to be permanent.
Let's get that amendment.
Let's work together as a nation and show them what America's all about.
All right, we got to go, Sabby Sab's podcast.
Everybody check it out.
Sabby, thank you for joining us today.
Really appreciated it.
Thank you so much for having me on.
Yeah, no problem.
Let's keep it going.
All right, when we come back, we are going to keep it going.
The Republicans are beginning to panic that Americans care about affordability.
It's kind of hilarious.
We'll show it to you when we return.
Indisputable is still the fastest growing news show in America compared to CNN,
Fox News, and 30 other networks.
We tell the truth on indisputable because the truth is indisputable.
We go places that other news media outlets refuse to go when there were human rights abuses
happening at the Victorville Prison, Guards and members of the community contacted us.
You, through your investigative reporting, unearthed, very troubling allegations about specific
forms of abuse and discrimination in the federal prison system.
It really doesn't take much to be a trusted voice.
All it takes is to be fearless, report on matters, be an advocate.
I called it the bullpen intentionally because it's a place of preparation.
We present individuals who may have an opposing view.
So we debate.
Sometimes we interview individuals because their stories deserve to be heard.
A survivor of significant police misconduct and his attorney.
We covered this story earlier and will remind you of the horror of one man being shot at damn near 100 times by the police.
We take time on this show to showcase the tipper tantrums of Cairns in the wild.
We do this not because we want to see people's emotional outburst in public,
but because these incidents are emblematic of a bigger societal issue taking place across the nation.
And it has to be checked.
My friend, my big homie, attorney at law, Benjamin Kropp.
I just want to thank you, man.
An educated, articulate brothers like yourself speak truth to power.
It makes a great difference in changing the landscape in America.
Listen, no matter what you do, don't allow the politics of ideology to evaporate the soul that still exist inside of you.
They don't stop, I don't stop.
Racism won't stop.
I won't stop.
Systemic bias won't stop.
I won't stop.
People still need health care, so I won't stop.
People still need criminal justice system for form, so I won't stop.
You won't stop you.
I'm wearing one of our pieces of merchandise.
So the funny thing about the Dragon Squad, and that's what our viewers call themselves.
That's the name of the group, but every individual chooses their own name.
You might have Cincinnati Dragon.
You might have Harry Potter Dragon.
We have a Grandma Sunshine Dragon is one of those that I remember.
These are people that like to have an element of themselves, their lives,
what's significant to them reflected as a part of the community.
But the concept of the Dragon Squad is just something I threw away as a joke.
I was mocking the proud boys, these right wing groups that come up with a name for themselves
that they think is cool, but it's actually really lame.
And I thought, you know, off the top of my head, I can come up with something that's still kind of lame,
but much cooler.
And so I threw out Dragon Squad and I just moved on with my life, but everybody liked it.
And so they kept it going.
And so we've embraced it.
And I think again, it was this was during the period of the pandemic.
I think it was it was sort of nice to have a renewed sense of community, a feeling that you're a part of something when everything seems so chaotic.
And as a result of that, we've got independent artists online streaming, making beautiful digital art of dragons.
We've got, you know, we've released a number of pieces of merchandise that people love sending us photos of them.
And then by the way, for me personally, people send me, like you can probably see in the background, like a knitted dragon, someone sent me.
There's a dragon book they sent me.
Dragon board games they send me.
People have done like custom ironworks making dragon bottle openers.
Like the fans are super invested in diamond art and things like that.
And so it's great that they send this stuff.
Sometime we're going to have to set up a wall of all of them.
But yeah, it's definitely brought the community a lot closer together.
The fact that we were no longer in this big studio, I felt a lot more personally attached to people.
It felt very immediate.
And I know that I personally needed the connection.
This guy has son Piker.
Back on the young church, Jane Hugar, Elliot Morgan with you guys.
Elliot Sousa on Rebel HQ, make sure you're checking that out.
All right, we got a lot to get to, so we're going to fire away here.
Let's go to the next story.
But for Republicans to not own the affordability problem that Americans are suffering right now is a problem.
They need to acknowledge that that happened.
that happened under the last presidency, but now we've got to own it.
We've got to bring, you know what she's talking to those voters about right now in their front yards?
She's talking about state guaranteed paid leave.
She's talking about raising the minimum wage to $20 an hour.
Do you know what that's going to do to small businesses, how many people that's going to put out of work?
One year moratorium on new AI data center construction.
She wants to raise income taxes on couples making just over $400,000 a year.
So these are the solutions she's offering at a very sensitive time for this affordability moment.
But Republicans beware, don't let them keep owning this affordability message when the numbers
clearly show these prices ran up under the last administration and the onus is on Republicans
to get them back down come midterm elections.
That was both telling and hilarious at the same time.
She's like, now Republicans don't let Democrats own affordability.
It turns out the poors care about it.
And the middle class care about it.
I mean, we didn't know that because we're all multi-millionaires, paid off by Rupert Murdoch
to rob you guys blind and hand it over to corporate PACs and foreign governments.
But it turns out people care about affordability.
And then she says, now all the things that Hong and other Democrats are doing on affordability,
they're terrible and you shouldn't do any of them.
So let's just trick people into voting for us, even though we would do the exact opposite
of helping them.
Well, we appreciate the heads up.
Thank you for the confession on Fox News there, but Elliot's got more on this.
Yeah, so according to the Trump administration, not only is everything getting more affordable,
but also what really Americans should be worrying about is what else?
Communism. Here's Caroline Levin.
Thanks to President Trump and Republicans in common sense policies across the board,
our country is safer, our country is more affordable.
We cannot allow these radical extreme far-left liberals to take power.
We have steady progress under President Trump right now.
If these radical extreme liberals are given a chance at power here in Washington, D.C.,
they will try to obstruct this president and turn our country into a communist hellhole with every extreme liberal policy that they try to implement.
Yeah, don't be worried about that actual problem.
Be worried about the problem.
We kind of just made up in our heads.
And also Caroline Levitt there is saying that Trump has made life more affordable for Americans.
and this comes after Trump told Fox News last week, I inherited very, very high costs and they're all coming down now.
The food, the groceries, it's all coming down. We've done a great job. You know, I think we should be given an A plus on the economy, but I think that's coming.
People are starting to talk about it. Sure, Grandpa, I'm sure people are talking about it.
But over here in what is referred to as reality, it's not all coming down and it's not even close.
Louis Jacobson at Politifact wrote, with a few exceptions, prices have gone up since Trump
began his second term in January 2025.
Official federal data shows.
In many cases, the picture for consumer prices has worsened since Politifact looked at this
question in January, partially because the price of gasoline has risen since the start of the
Iran war in late February.
In addition to hitting commuters' wallets, higher prices at the pump also affect the cost
of many consumer goods that need to be transnational.
transported. So what is getting cheaper? Well, eggs, bacon, bread, and cars. What is getting
more expensive? Yeah, pretty much everything else, including coffee, ground beef, steak, fruits and
vegetables, tuition and childcare, electricity, housing, and on and on and on, nothing important.
Also, as for inflation, that's not looking good either. So Politifact noted that the spike,
in inflation is like the rising gas prices, a result of the ongoing war with Iran. Also,
speaking of gas prices, also not looking super good. They've gone up 34% since Trump went back
into the White House. Also, it is not just gas itself. Fuel oil is up 24%. Natural gas is up 12%.
Electricity is up 8%. So while people may be saying that Trump deserves an A plus in
the economy, Politifact read it his statement that it's all coming down as you're not going to
believe it, mostly false.
Shank, I'm shocked, I'm flabbergasted.
I'm taken aback, truly, that our dear leader would say something that is mostly false to
his people, but also I'm reminded of the George Orwell quote where he said the party told
you not to believe the evidence of your eyes and your ears.
It was their final most essential command.
I don't know why that pops into my head, but what are your thoughts?
Yeah, well, that's because they're telling you, please don't look at the prices.
Oh, that's right.
And if you look at the prices, remember, they're lying to you.
It's actually cheaper.
I did that at the grocery store here in LA.
It's called Rouse, and I went to Rouse and I was like, I think Donald Trump is right,
and your prices are actually lower, so I'm only going to pay less.
They were like, oh, you're right, you caught us, and I paid less.
Oh, that's right.
Or maybe that didn't happen at all because those are the actual prices.
Okay, so look, the one thing that is really hard to lie about is the economy.
So, you know, Joe Biden, when he was in charge, kept telling you that inflation wasn't that bad.
People didn't believe him, you know, why?
Because inflation was significant.
Okay.
And you could say, hey, you know what?
You really, Israel is our greatest ally.
You need to support them.
And they're, you know, to just the most beautiful people and they're almost all going to be killed.
Right? And you're not in Tel Aviv, you're not in Gaza. So in the old days before social media,
television blocked all the news in that regards. So how do you know, right? So you might believe that,
right? And that's true of really any foreign policy supporting Ukraine, supporting Saudi Arabia.
How do you know you don't live in Riyadh, right? So, and there's many other things, oil subsidies.
They say you need to give them $35 billion a year. Now that sounds stupid and obviously wrong.
Why do they need your money?
They're already super profitable, right?
But they say, oh, we got to drill, drill, drill, and then your gas prices are going to be lower.
And maybe you don't know cause and effect, a little bit harder to try.
But when you go to the grocery store, there's no negotiating.
I know what the fruity pebbles costs.
I know what it costs before.
I know what it cost now.
I know what the gas cost before.
I know what it costs now.
So you can try to BS me all day long, but I got eyes and ears.
And I actually have to take money out of my pocket to pay it, right?
So that's why the first clip from Fox News is so funny.
She's like, oh, they caught us.
Okay, they caught us in 4K.
And it turns out we can't trick them on this one.
So we should trick them in a different way.
Let's pretend that the people trying to address this issue are the bad guys.
And then Caroline Levick comes in with a parting shot.
She's leaving the White House.
It's not that interesting a story.
She just had a kid.
But she comes in and she's like, wait, wait, let me do some dozies at the end here.
It's going to be a communist hellhole if you actually care about gas prices.
Why would that turn us in?
We had lower gas prices before.
Were we a communist hell hole then?
No, this is just absurd.
And guys, they can't get out of the 1950s, right?
Remember, most of the Republicans and Democrats that are in charge today grew up in like the 1850s.
Like they're ancient.
They're like 280 years old, right?
So to them, they're like, oh, the communists are going to take over.
Oh my God, the commune, I heard they're going to kill us all and they're going to nuke us
from Moscow, right?
Bro, which communist, what are you talking about?
Is Cuba going to take over?
Are Democrats going to win and then open the gates for North Korea?
And then they're going to swarm in and what, this is insane.
Nobody thinks the communists are going to take over.
Like you're, that's only gonna work on people who are 89 and older, who remember hiding
under their desk in the 1950s, right?
So the rest of us don't care about your super stupid talking point about communists.
Now if there's, once you get past that, then you wanna have a real debate about, hey, where
do we go, guys?
Do we do Medicare for all?
Is it gonna actually save us money?
Like the Yale study that just came out says it's gonna save us a trillion dollars?
Or do I think it's gonna cost us money?
That's a legitimate debate, like let's have that debate.
You know, what's gonna lower gas prices, doing X or Y or Z?
Okay, that's a legitimate debate, right?
But saying, you're a communist is a little bit like when the Democrats said, you're a
fascist, right?
And remember if you're a Republican, how much you hated that?
Or if you're an independent, right?
What do you just call me names?
And it's not even what I am at all?
And what is this?
Now the Republicans think, oh, remember that dumb-ass strategy the Democrats lost with?
adopt it instead of take out fascist and put in communists and we'll win.
Literally the exact same strategy, which I do find it kind of entertaining.
Also, to your point, as well, it's minimum wage.
Like when Sander on Fox News is talking about affordability and then scoffing at all of these
potential solutions, like increasing the minimum wage, yeah, I'm not saying that's not
going to be a complicated thing.
At the same time, what's your alternative?
Because if you look at the graph of compensation versus productivity, productivity has been
the rise since forever, basically, and we're more productive than we've ever been, and we always
have been more productive than we ever have been as American workers.
But compensation has flatlines since late 70s, because we hitched our wagon to neoliberal
capitalism.
And so what are you gonna do to put money back in people's pockets that they actually earned?
And also, I'm not sensing a lot of actually wanting to help working class people in that
sentiment. It sounds to me like the end of the or the whole point is simply to continue
winning elections and not get creamed in the midterms. So I gotta tell you guys one
of the things. So for God's sake, again, wherever you're on the political spectrum,
don't get stuck on the labels. Oh, that person is again a fascist, a socialist,
whatever it is. No, no, no, no. What's your policy? What is your actual position?
What do you want to do about minimum wage, for example, right? And so along those lines,
If you haven't heard of middle out economics, look it up.
A great advocate for it is Nick Hanauer, but there's many advocates for it.
And Nick is an incredibly successful entrepreneur, and he's, to be honest, quite wealthy, right?
And what he's saying is, don't give the money to us because rich people save the money.
They don't put it back in their economy.
Give the money to the middle class in different ways, right?
But like helping them with child care, helping them with college debt, et cetera.
If you give it to the middle class, since they have less money overall, they have to spend it right away because they got to pay the rent, they got to pay the mortgage, they got to pay their student debt, et cetera.
And it gets put back into the economy and juices their economy and is way better at lifting all boats.
In fact, that's exactly what we did when we built the greatest middle class the world has ever seen.
between World War II and Ronald Reagan, that is when the great, again, the greatest middle class
in the history of the world was built on those middle out policies.
And from Reagan on, they switched to trickle down economics.
We're gonna give all the money to the rich.
We're literally gonna take your money and we're gonna give it to the richest people in the world.
Oil subsidies perfect example because the oil companies are literally some of the wealthiest,
most profitable companies in the world and in the history of the world.
And every year, $35 billion, we have to pay out of our taxes and give it to the oil companies for free.
Why?
It's nothing but a robbery, a flat out robbery, right?
So that's what you have to be concerned about.
So don't give it to ExxonMobil.
Are you nuts?
And then they say, oh, no, it's okay.
ExxonMobil later is going to trickle down on you.
I don't want anybody trickling on me, okay?
I don't need it.
What I need is middle out economics.
You want to call it something else?
I don't care.
And guys, they keep trying to scare you.
Like, for example, I call myself a capitalist because I'm a capitalist.
Ro Khanna, Abdul al-Said, these are all people who say, no, we're capitalists.
But what we don't want is corporatism, where corporations take over your government and say,
don't give it to the average American, give everything to us.
And that's the system we actually live under.
All right.
We're out of time on this one.
Let's take a quick break.
When we come back, we're going to talk about, you know, this story about Trump and how he
didn't mind getting a whole bunch of people killed on a different plane, when he thought
that the plane might blow up.
That's an amazing story.
And there's a couple of nuggets in there that I really got to want you guys to know.
So come right back.
Okay, plus plus plus plus plus plus.
Mr. Rubbery.
All right, let's go to super chat.
Boc says Minnesota understood this.
Simon, so proud of us, even the conservatives swerved Mike Pillow, win-win.
Yeah, Mike Pillow lost and all the progressives won in Minnesota.
Friendly Shark Dragon says, we really have to remember that most of the money is not going to Israel.
It is our military industrial complex that is getting rich from this, as Eisenhower warned.
If they didn't support it, it wouldn't happen.
So that is largely right.
So Israel does get the money.
They just then purchase weapons from us.
And they were going to purchase those weapons no matter what.
So that's why it's kind of fungible.
So if they're not spending the $4 billion on purchasing our weapons,
instead of we're gifting it to them, they spend it on healthcare instead.
And that's part of why they have universal health care and we don't, right?
So but you are definitely right that the defense contractors are a huge lobby.
And it's not just the Israeli lobby, it's both of those lobbies coming together to say,
give everything to Israel so that it goes to the defense contractors.
Israel's super happy, the defense contractors are happy, and the rest of us are robbed.
Schroederer's dragon says, no opinions today.
My brain isn't braining.
I just wanted to donate to a great cause.
Love your brother, and I believe in your brain.
So Jessica Smith writes in, I have a brain tumor and it has to come out next week.
And I had to beg my job for time off and not to cancel my health insurance.
I've worked there for three years and also in the medical field.
This is the brutal conditions under which we live.
And so they might cancel her insurance.
They might fire her because she's out with a brain tumor.
And then our system says go die somewhere.
That's not normal, man.
And that's not humane.
That's not American.
We have to get money out of politics so that we end all of this.
All right, back on TYT, Jankan, Elliot with you guys,
but also Curtis Lewis and Suppawash.
So those American heroes hit the join button below on YouTube.
We appreciate you guys.
You could also upgrade through that button, and we need now more than ever.
We're totally besieged.
Basically, that you're the only guys we have left on our side.
We love you and appreciate you.
So if you can, join through there or through t.com slash join.
Then meanwhile, we try to help you out with our sponsors because I think they're really good for you.
And we do a lot of research to make sure we're getting you the best guys.
And so I want to tell you about chapter today.
So we hate scams of all sorts, especially on Medicare because that targets senior citizens.
And unfortunately, that industry is full of them.
So you got commission hungry brokers, steering people toward whatever pays the broker the most,
not what's best for you.
So that's why we're recommending a company called Chapter to you guys because we did our research.
They're independent Medicare advisors.
The only ones that compare every plan nationwide.
And the best plan for you is out there.
And Chapter is going to help you find it.
People who switched with chapter last year saved an average of $1,100.
That is a lot of money to save every year.
Chapters advisors are honest, they're not paid to just steer you to certain plans.
That's the important part.
So it's not based on commission like that.
They work for you, not big insurance.
We know we have a lot of people who called them.
And if they had the best plan already, they told them to stick with it, even though they
didn't make any money from it.
So that proves their honesty, right?
Among other things.
So it's free.
It takes under 20 minutes.
Skip the scams and call chapter today, 805-201-2275.
For Medicare help, you can trust.
That's 805-201-2275.
All right, hope that helps, guys.
All right, now let's go to the next story.
The thing here that's a little disturbing is that if the president,
if they needed to take such extraordinary steps to protect the president
because the threat level was so high,
The American people deserve to know that the threat level was that high in this particular
case that he had to take such an extraordinary measure.
And then the other piece of it is that, in fact, everyone on that plane was a decoy.
If they felt that it was unsafe to be on the plane, then it was unsafe for everybody else
to be on the plane as well.
So they at least deserve to know, if not then after, why the
this was happening.
So that's talking about the decoy plane that Trump used and he filled the plane that
might get hit, at least that's what they thought at the time with reporters.
And by the way, some of his own staff.
So who was on the decoy plane?
We'll tell you that.
And was the threat real?
Well, that depends on where we got the information.
Well, we have info on that as well.
But one of the things we want to discuss here is we tell you all the facts in this case is just
think about how Donald Trump.
Trump cared so much about protecting his own life, but didn't care one lick about the people
on the other plane.
Because he thought the threat was real that that plane might get blown up.
And he didn't mind leaving those people on there, which is amazing.
Ellie, tell us about it.
Yeah, it's quite the elaborate ruse that Trump pulled off here.
So if you can recall, Trump used his new Air Force one, gifted to him, of course, by Qatar
to get to Turkey.
But it was announced during the summit that Trump would use the former Air Force One to come back.
The security of the new aircraft came into question.
And the administration stated it needed to undergo more upgrades.
In Ankara, Trump boarded the old Air Force One jumbo jet in view of television cameras.
He was secretly shuttled minutes later to a smaller plane, an Air Force C-32A via an airport catering truck typically used to load meals and other supplies pre-flight,
according to the U.S. official and corroborating material reviewed by the post.
that made Air Force One a decoy with media and some White House staff aboard, the officials said.
And luckily, we do in fact have some footage of Trump escaping the Air Force One jet and sneaking
into a catering truck.
President Trump was seen boarding Air Force One at 8.24 p.m. local time on July 8th.
But actually, according to the Post, and you can see here, Trump and several of his aides were
secretly shuttled minutes later on Tuesday.
this airport catering truck, which was elevated and positioned at a door out of the view of the
cameras. The post reports that the president was on that catering truck when it pulled away from
Air Force One at 8.30 p.m. secretly bringing him to a smaller plane in Air Force C-32A, making the Air
Air Force one that everyone thought he was on a decoy that still had the reporters who thought
the president had boarded that plane and who you see boarding right here on the right, and some
White House staff aboard.
The Washington Post reports, and I quote, the maneuver meant that the president's actual
location was concealed from the American public and many senior U.S. officials for hours.
So the planes take off and they later land in the U.K.
And this initiates phase two of the ruse, getting Trump back onto Air Force One so that he can
exit Air Force One.
Now, it's still not clear, as the Post notes.
tonight how the president was transported from that other secret plane back onto Air Force
1 after it landed.
You see here the reporters captured the president getting off the plane that they thought
he had just flown on with them to the UK and he's seen coming down the stairs just
before 11 p.m.
After greeting American service members on the tarmac, Trump got on the new Air Force 1 jet.
That's the one that was given to the president by the Qatari government and then he flew back
to Washington. Now, the plane that he's getting on here is not to be confused with the old Air Force
1 decoy or the military plane that he flew on secretly. But it was when the president got back
on this plane to fly home to the U.S. that he was asked by reporters why they had been told
to lower their window shades on that first flight, which is extremely unusual and not typically
something that happens for the press that sits on the right side of the plane, which is where
that airport catering truck was now that you look back at that other video.
But given what we know now, given the pictures that you can see now, it makes what the president
told reporters in that gaggle afterward, all the more noteworthy.
Yeah, and when the press asked Trump why the folks on Air Force One had to lower their window
blinds, he said, because you were on a dangerous flight.
Do you know why they had us close our window blinds?
That was no.
Well, yeah, because you're dangerous right, because if the sleaze bags that we have to do,
it's the thing that Iran was possibly thinking, talking about it.
Well, I mean, if they asked you to close your windows, probably they didn't ask me to close
mine, but if they did, I would have done it.
Were you aware of any credible threat by Iran against her first one?
Well, I haven't threatened all the time.
I'm number one on their list before you.
But if I go, you go.
Right?
But was there specific that today?
Perhaps, perhaps someday you want to change professions.
Okay, so I guess in Trump's mind, that's just the price you're willing to pay if you decide to be a journalist reporting on the president.
Among those on the smaller jet was Defense Secretary Pete Heggzeth, who boarded the C-32A using external stairs in a manner that made him look like the senior most official on the flight.
The Post reported Monday.
But here's the thing. While the initial Washington Post report stated Trump left White House staff and the press pool to be decoys, an update later revealed that he's
He actually did take some people with him on his secret flight, a select few of his most loyal
aides that you've probably not heard of.
Other passengers on the truck included Dan Scavino, the White House Deputy Chief of Staff,
Natalie Harp, the president's executive assistant and Walt Notto, the director of Oval Office
Operations, according to a U.S. official familiar with the operation and corroborating
material reviewed by the Washington Post.
A few lower profile aides were also present, but the group did not include Secretary
of state, Marco Rubio, or other officials at the highest level of government, according to the
official and the material.
But of course, Trump was the one at greater risk, and so he just, you know, left his cabinet
and maybe some U.S. journalists offend for themselves after you just resumed hostilities with
Iran.
So, Jank, I am reminded of the scene from the movie Titanic when the ship is going down, and
the captain sneaks on to a catering truck.
So what are your thoughts?
I was wondering where you were going.
You know that.
So I couldn't understand, was Rubio on the decoy plane or the safe plane?
It sounded like maybe he was on the decoy plane.
Yeah, okay.
So I have a theory on that I'll come back to.
So first off, Trump said there, well, if I go, you go, it turns out that wasn't true.
He was on the other plane earlier.
So the plane that was more likely to bomb was the reporters.
So if they had gone, he would have been fine.
And that was the whole point.
Like, because remember, if he just switches planes, they still know which plane he's on, right?
So he has to pretend he's on the decoy plane, which by definition endangers the people on
the decoy plane.
And they're like, and if you guys get killed, who cares?
Because if you go, I don't go.
And that's Donald Trump in a nutshell right there.
I don't agree with Axelrod when he says the public has a right to know.
We have a right to know maybe afterwards.
But no, you don't have to publicize that, hey, the president is under threat and he's right
there.
No, you don't have to do that, right?
On the other hand, when he says, but the people on the decoy plane have a right to know,
oh yeah, that's definitely true.
It's totally.
I mean, if you're on the plane, imagine they put your kids on the decor plane, they put you or
your wife or your husband on the decoy plane?
Nah, that's crazy, right?
And it shows massive indifference to their lives.
So now, the good news is we got this intelligence about how Iran is about to kill
Trump from Israel. So that means it's fake. Israel was trying to get Trump and go,
all the Iranians are looking to kill you and oh, it's super credible. Oh, they have a shoulder
fired RPG. Any second you're going to, remember, attack Iran, attack him more. Attack, attack, attack,
attack, attack, attack, right? So that's why my theory on Rubio being on the decoy plane,
he's like, oh, we got it from Israeli intelligence as a guy who's Israeli first, right? Marco Rubio's
gotten millions upon millions of dollars from the Israeli lobby.
He knows the intelligence is fake.
So he's like, oh, the Israelis gave us to the house.
Now I'll go on the deco plane.
I'm good.
It's a good view.
They're not going to hit us.
Yeah, I mean, I know that there's situations that maybe the public shouldn't know about
when it comes to the security of the president.
I totally respect that.
At the same time, when stories like this come out, they're just so goofy that it
reminds me of an episode of Veep and it does make me question exactly what we're doing
is a nation and a world.
So, yeah.
So, I mean, it is funny because of,
all the, you know, the trickery and all that.
But again, I'm stuck on the guys on the decoy plane because they thought it was real.
Like the Secret Service, the security for the government, they all thought it was solely real,
which is kind of comical.
I mean, Israeli intelligence is literally never correct.
They always give you intelligence to make you attack their enemies.
It's so at this late date, I can't believe we take those liars seriously.
But they did and they thought, oh my God, the president's in mortal danger.
We've got to move out and make sure that the other White House officials and the reporters
are in mortal danger instead.
And you just, I can't get past how immoral that is.
Yeah, I mean, yeah, it's funny to like laugh about, but also I cannot imagine being in
that situation.
It is potentially one of the most terrifying situations you can possibly imagine yourself in any way
and the fact that they asked Trump about it and he was just like, oh yeah, well, actually your lives were in danger.
I mean, it's easy in hindsight to go like, oh, here's probably what was going on.
But in the moment, I don't know what was going through their heads.
And it's, yeah, I mean, it's an active cowardice at the end of the day.
Oh, you know what?
One last quick thing.
Because I thought, like, so I run the company here, right?
I founded it and we've been doing this for a long time.
And so we got a lot of folks who work here.
Imagine I thought, hey, somebody might be looking to harm me and I've got real intelligence.
and we switch cars, right?
I pretend to be in one car and I go.
And then the car, the decoy car, I'm like, Elliot, you're going in the decoy car and Craig and Bart.
Okay, yeah, like, yeah.
And you know what?
And you find out later, right?
No, I don't tell you at the time, but you find out later that you thought that I thought,
I believed that you guys might die.
And I put you in the car anyway.
Yeah.
Like, you've got to be like, what in the God's grief?
Thanks, man.
Because there's people who work in the White House who got put on the decoy plane, right?
What do they think afterwards?
Oh, Trump was willing to let me die?
Isn't that crazy?
I mean, how furious would you be?
Yeah, you have to close, why are we closing our lines in the middle of a flight?
Oh, well, because your life isn't dangerous.
Okay, cool, thank you, Mr. President.
It's good stuff.
Well, at least the president's on the plane, so, no, he's not, though, we got him to safety.
It's only your life, that's on the line.
It's disgusting.
Okay, all right. Another break when we come back. We got to fight that broke out between a pro-Israel podcaster and an anti-Israel podcaster. It got weird. And I'm a little worried about it where things are headed. But let's show it to you when we come back and talk about why I'm worried. We'll be right.
Shank Weeger has the morality of a cockroach.
All right, back on TOT.
Dave Mills says on Super Chat, Adam Smith, the more government subsidizes something, the higher
the cost, lower the quality, and more the corruption, less the accountability.
So yes, it is not, by the way, a capitalist position or a conservative or a right-wing position
to be in favor of subsidies.
I mean, that's like subsidies are not right-wing at all.
Yet, Republicans love subsidies.
They love taking money from the donors and then subsidizing all of their corporations.
So it's and yet everyone in media is like, what is right wing position?
I do not know.
What is capitalism?
I thought it was to take your money and give it to really rich people and big corporations.
I don't know, I am a reporter.
Anyway, I didn't draft writes in a YouTube member section.
I pay my taxes for my country and for my life to build a better life for my children.
I will not pay taxes if the money goes to wars that are not ours and a debt.
genocidal regime who kills babies.
I mean, who can blame you, right?
But the government will blame you, and then they'll come and take your freedom away
because you dare to defy Israel.
Your money is theirs, and if you don't give them your money, you're an anti-Semite.
Adam Hobson says, how much money do you think the Israeli government paid flock for access?
Their cameras and database, I mean, they love surveillance, so putting us in a surveillance
state would be their move.
I don't know if they have to pay or if like Jonathan Green, glad,
just goes and sends in spies and just takes the technology, et cetera.
I mean, they've stolen everything from us, our nuclear weapon technology or uranium,
our nuclear triggers.
So I don't know if they have to pay for it.
Solar Rick says the West Bank's a mess.
Palestinians are forcibly pushed out and we cannot do anything.
Gaza's down to 30%.
And the new prime minister said he would push back against Israel.
Trump let Americans down.
Tank Uyger has the morality of a cockroach.
I said.
Back on TYT, Jank and Elliot with you guys.
If you can or if you're interested, I collect more A-PAC tiers since A-PAC lost a couple of really important elections last night at shopt-T-Y-T-D-com where we've got the A-Pact-Tiers mug.
Now, let's do our next story.
I'm right, I'm right next to you.
I'm right next to you.
That's the thing.
He can't touch you.
He can do.
I can do whatever the hell I want.
We can do it.
What's going on?
How you doing?
Guys, guys, guys, guys.
Seriously, don't, let's not be.
He's like a fuck shorter than me.
He's like a foot short of me.
You're a bitch.
You're a bitch.
You kill children.
You just admitted to it.
You killed children.
You ordered children to be killed.
You know what?
Most people would beat your ass in America.
All right, things got ugly there.
So on the one side was a dude named Def Noodles, because that's where we are as a country.
And he was actually, I think, relatively the good guy.
Although he did start it a little bit there.
We'll discuss who's right and wrong in a second.
His real name is Dennis Piotr.
He's a YouTuber turned Republican candidate.
The other guy is a former IDF officer, the little feller, Yosef Haddad.
And he continued to provoke and provoke both inside the studio and outside the studio.
I'm worried about where this is headed.
But we're going to show you more from this crazy.
fight and talk about why we're worried about it.
Elliot.
Yeah, and if you're like me and you had no idea who deaf noodles is, he was a popular
pop culture and influencer drama content creator, but due to controversy involving
clashes he had with other creators along with the disastrous attempt at being a stand-up
comedian and maybe some erratic online behavior, he eventually took his channels offline.
However, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, he's making headlines recently after a video
was released of Faytoza getting into a physical altercation with Israeli advocate Yosef Haddad.
Per Jewish publicationforward.com,
Fatoza, who unsuccessfully ran as a Republican for California's 30th congressional district,
was one of 10 anti-Israel activists scheduled to debate Haddad for an episode of the digital
social hour, a long-form podcast that features unfiltered conversations with controversial figures.
Haddad is one of Israel's most prominent advocates and among the small minority of Arab citizens
who voluntarily served in the Israel defense forces,
Bordian slip.
Born in Haifa and raised in Nazareth,
Hadaad is a Palestinian Arab citizen of Israel
who identifies strongly as Israeli.
Since the beginning of Israel's genocidal war on Gaza,
Haddad has traveled internationally,
defending Israeli policies,
challenging accusations of apartheid and genocide,
and campaigning against the BDS movement
and other forms of Palestine solidarity.
So despite running as a Republican,
Faitosa has expressed extreme opposition to Israel's actions in Gaza.
And as you saw in that cold open, Fatoza was really getting into it with Haddad,
calling him a quote, genocidal effing freak who's killed children.
But after the filming, the fighting also escalated and got even more physical outside.
Genocidal freak.
I'm not- You bombed the kids and you need two people to hold me back.
Try and to fight you,
Hey, stop, come on.
That's your husband, right?
Get away from my face.
Stop, stop.
Stop.
That's your, look at this guy.
Stuff in rocks in his fist.
If he hits me.
You too.
Stop.
Hey, hey, hey.
Hey.
Now, obviously, no one here at TYT condones violence of any kind.
And also, the debate has not been posted online yet.
However, the two have shared, basically diametrically opposed,
diversions on the altercation online. So Yosef wrote on X, I was attacked by a groiper in the
US. He just didn't realize he had picked a Galani soldier. I came today to take part in a film
debate against a group of anti-Israel activists with the person debating me constantly changing.
At one point, a man who was clearly a groiper came up against me. Even in the studio, he started
cursing and turning the argument into a physical confrontation. After the filming in the parking lot,
he managed to attack me from behind very quickly. He realized that he effed up because
when it comes to anti-Israel attacks, we don't stay silent. He picked the wrong guy.
This isn't anything new. When they can't win a verbal debate, they turn to physical
confrontation, which they lose as well. Now, Phaetosa was not holding back either in person
or online. He said, this self-admitted child killer hid behind his security, and now he's
desperately trying to spin the confrontation as some courageous stand. This after spending hours
lecturing Americans and why he believes he's morally justified in bombing schools. This is the IDF. This is
They demand America's money, America's weapons, and America's loyalty, then treat Americans
with contempt for daring to question them. They don't respect America and they don't respect
you. Faytoza also uploaded a video to his reestablished YouTube channel to explain in more
depth his interpretation of the events. First, he explained the lead-up to his debate with Haddad.
This guy had already spent pretty much three hours debating other people before he got to me. I think
there were about 10 other people who debated him. I was one of the last. I was supposed to be the
last, but somebody else ended up going up after me. And needless to say, for three hours, this man
was basically screaming at everybody he spoke to. The level of disrespect is something I have never
witnessed myself firsthand until I saw this man talking to my fellow Americans about why we should
support Israel unconditionally. In fact, one of the topics that kept coming up was whether the
idea of is justified in bombing schools. And across the board, whenever somebody challenged them
on this, he verbally abused them in a way that was relatively unsettling. He called them Nazis.
He cursed them out. At certain points, he refused to even look people in the face and would
only address the host of the show who was sitting off to the side. He would scream and curse
at people sitting in the background. Overall, it was an extremely toxic and abusive environment.
He would very often engage in what I'm describing as fighting words.
But after an already heated start to their debate, things escalated after Fatoza asked Haddad
if he ordered strikes on schools during his time as an IDF commander.
I heard him mentioned earlier in another debate that he was an IDF soldier.
So I asked him, how many people did you kill in the IDF?
Did you give orders to kill people?
And if I remember this accurately, he said yes or something to that effect.
Finally, I asked him whether he had ordered a strike on a school.
He puts us that down, avoids answering, and deflects.
And at that moment, I'm like, in my head, oh, man, this guy definitely ordered a bomb on a school.
So I start laying into him, and he gets pissed off.
And that escalates the language he was using even further, because now he's not just using what I would describe as fighting words.
Now he has an emotional reason to push it even further.
He's pissed off.
And that's when things escalate to the next level.
At which point, I'm like, okay, bet.
I get up, take off my jacket, walk over, and put my arm around his shoulder.
And from there, things went off the rails.
I have my own opinion about what happened,
and obviously I was walking a very fine line in that situation,
but people are going to watch the footage and interpret it differently.
The internet is already extremely divided over who instigated this and who didn't.
I believe he was instigating, based on everything that happened beforehand.
I believe this was the outcome he wanted, because as we've seen,
this is the kind of stuff he does.
He's a rage baiter.
He's a provocateur.
He goes around the world, instigating confrontations,
and then paints himself as a victim afterwards.
That's his whole stick.
So Faytoza there is referring to Haddad's decision to counter protest the pro-Palestinian
protests which led to one protester punching Haddad leading to the arrest of another protester
who didn't touch Haddad and Haddad has also allegedly harassed Palestinian students at Tel Aviv
University and called for their expulsion. Faitosa stated he's not claiming to be the victim in
this situation and Haddad stated on X he has filed a police report against Fatoza no arrests seemingly
have been made yet. And again, the full debate has not been uploaded yet. So we do not know the full
context of this situation. Jake, there's a lot to unpack here. On one side, you have the Battle of
the Dorks. On the other side, you have the substance of the actual argument. So what are your thoughts?
Yeah, I'm going to start in a funny place. So he's an Arab Israeli. But you see how culture is so
dominant. So in it's not about religion by definition, right? He's not Jewish. I don't know if he has
a religion, but he's Arab. And but he lives inside Israeli culture and he has adopted it 100%.
So he feels entitled to saying anything he wants. He feels apparently entitled to kill kids
and thinks that's perfectly normal and they had it coming. And he feels entitled to instigate. And then if you
strike back to cry as victim, which is Israel 101, right?
I'm gonna push you and push you and push you and push you and push you and then when you,
if you push back a little bit, oh, the victim, right?
So that's very classic.
But at the end of the day, in this particular case, from my view of those videos that we just
watch, I think Faitosa is the one who got physical first, and that's wrong.
Don't do that.
Number one, you're giving him what he wants, and that's dumb strategy, right?
Two, it's not the right thing to do.
That's more important, right?
Because being physical isn't going to solve any of this.
And you think the Israelis mind being physical, they're going to go for an unfair advantage
immediately and then brag about it.
That's literally what happened there.
I mean, he's like, oh, he messed with a Golani soldier.
Bro, there was three of you, right?
So he is, he goads you, you fall for it, and then three of them tackle you.
So what did you gain out of that?
Again, strategically and morally, it's the wrong thing to do.
So in terms of like who's right about the debate, that's not close.
Of course, Fatosa is right.
Like, oh, yeah, we should give all our money to Israel to kill kids.
How is that a debate?
That's why Haddad has to try to rage bait people and try to distract people and say,
oh, it's all your fault and we're the victims.
And if you noticed, I mean, I watched all the tapes outside.
he's constantly calling deaf noodles.
And it sounds funny every time, sorry.
I mean, and I got a funny name so it does it like glass house.
But anyways, he's constantly calling him a neo-Nazi.
So if you don't agree with Israel, you're a neo-Nazi, right?
And so, but guys, don't don't give them what they want.
So don't make it physical, because then everything's going to devolve.
And by the way, one last part of that, if you do do that, what they're going to do is they're going to go
to mommy, which is the FBI and the U.S. government and the cops.
And then they're going to do a surveillance state and crack down on all of us.
And they're going to go to direct oppression because, oh my God, I don't feel safe.
And in that case, if you're touching them, that's true.
Don't do that, right?
Elliot, thoughts?
Yeah, I mean, I think they're both just like self-interested dorks.
Again, I think this is influencer culture.
And I can agree with death noodles in terms of maybe his policy on Israel.
What I disagree with, I think, is the values informing that policy.
This seems like an effort to go viral and an effort to increase engagement.
And I don't know what good that does when it comes to the genocide in Gaza, when it comes
to the apartheid state of Israel, to use that as a way to bolster yourself.
So I don't think either of them are in the right here.
I don't think that bracketing off the Israel issue, I think death noodles, from what I understand,
I'm pretty much diametrically opposed to him politically.
but at the end of the day, I don't want to see this at all.
Like this is just a couple boys trying to, you know, have a tussle and see how many eyeballs
they can get on them rather than the actual issues that are important that are still ongoing
right now.
Yeah, and of course, at the end of the day, the most important thing is the genocide.
There's over 76,000 dead there, and that's what Haddad is bragging about.
And he doesn't even have the decency to feel any kind of guilt or compunction over it.
And it does show too that there is a bipartisan kind of through line as well with the issue of Israel,
especially like with younger generations. And I'm very curious to see how that transpires over the coming years.
Because I don't know that that can be put in the bottle right now. And that I think also shows
how atrocious Israel's actions have been that people who I completely disagree with and people
who I am aligned with all agree on Israel so long as we're not, you know, 85 years old.
Yes. And plus, Haddad's a sellout bitch. Okay.
We gotta go, but we do have a bonus episode coming up for you guys next.
And Rokana versus data centers, so that's a big fight.
And then things have gotten so bad on our aircraft carriers, our soldiers are literally,
or in that case, Navy seaman, funny every time, sorry, are jumping off of the boats,
like literally jumping into the water.
