Comedian and commentator Bassem Youssef appears in a new interview adding to the growing global backlash over the war and political polarization. Internationally, more Israeli politicians are now facing International Criminal Court warrants via the International Criminal Court, intensifying diplomatic pressure as legal accountability questions spread. In the U.S., a judge ruled that the Kars4Kids jingle is “deceptive,” raising questions about the group Kars4Kids’s fundraising practices.

So Bassam's going to be with us for the whole two hours, and then Operation Joy at the end. He's ready to spread joy throughout the world.

In fact, it is literally throughout the world because he's of course a comic and out of Egypt where he stood up to the government so you know he's anti-Semitic. Okay. So we'll talk about a lot of that because we're gonna talk a lot about Israel today. And Boston's gonna be in Istanbul on June 19th doing his show there. So if you're anywhere near Istanbul, check that out. Obviously wherever Bassem does his show, give it a shot. So we've got a lot to cover for you guys today.

We're gonna talk about the Iran war, of course. We're gonna talk about the shooting that happened in San Diego at a mosque. We're gonna talk about the Tom Massey race, which is the most important race of the year, in my opinion, and that is happening today. In fact, half the polls just closed in Kentucky, the other half will close in an hour. So if we have any results for you guys, we will deliver them for you guys throughout here. And Donald Trump has decided to have a 1.8 billion. slush fund, there's two parts of it that are absolutely enraging.

We'll get to that a little bit later in this show as well. So Anna's gonna get us started, but before you do, how are you doing, brother? I'm fine, I'm very happy to be here. I'm absolutely happy and stocked because I told you when I came here, it's like, this one doesn't count. It only counts when Anna is here. I'm so sorry, I missed it. I had to travel out of state for work, and then I felt terrible that I wasn't here.

Well, we made it up. I'm happy we're here. So that's a very Turkish thing, like if you go to somebody's house and And like you didn't stay long enough. This one doesn't count. Yes. Exactly. Exactly.

So Bassam's guest hosting with us today. So that's why he's here the whole time. All right. So Anna's going to tell us the news. So I thought we would start off with something that is sure to be controversial for some. Because working together to achieve common interests is a difficult thing to do. Teamwork does make the dream work, though. So let's get into it.

I was fired from Daily Wire that year. Yeah. And you had a little something to do. with it. Did I? You did, actually. This is a story that I've never told. Okay. But I, or I think you had something to do with it, but I was not allowed after I had watched you, and we should show that clip in a little bit, but you were my wake-up call to what was happening in Gaza. Wait a second, what is going on? Why are this many Palestinians dying, woke me up to the fact that there was a huge part of the conversation I wasn't aware of. And so I went to my produce rap time and I said,

we should get this guy on. He's going viral. I don't know who he is, but like I really would like to, just see here the other side. And my producer ran it up the chain and came back to me and said, we are not allowed to have Bassemusuf on. Now some on the left might not have expected comedian Bassem Yusuf to sit down for a lengthy interview with Candice Owens, but he did do just that. I personally enjoyed the conversation, but unfortunately he dealt with a little bit of backlash for speaking with her.

I disagreed with that backlash and, well, so did Bossam. And he defended himself in a conversation with Medi Hassan. Let's take a quick look at that. Why are you shaming me for being friends of some of these people? I mean, some of them are freaks. Why don't you like Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson? Because they've said some horrific things over the years. So, so what?

Why don't you like Ben Javier? I mean, Pierce Morgan has said the horrible things over the years. So I said anything close to what Tucker Carl said about Muslims, about Arabs, about immigrant. And why can't we be strategic and use their platforms? They can. Yeah. But like you don't like that. You don't like that.

No, it's not that I don't like it. It's that my worry is that for the sake of one important issue, because there's a huge issue, we're giving a pass to these people to launder some of their other objection. Like I said just now, they're not disowning Trump. Actually, Marjorie Taylor Green,

I'm going to have to go home and take a shower off to this. I give her credit out of all of them because she actually picked a fight with Trump. She gave up her political career. So she actually put her money where her mouth is to use a phrase. The rest of Tucker doesn't say a single anti-Trump word. He acts like the war in Iran came down from the skies We wouldn't be in this war and around had Tucker not promoted Trump for president.

Now, to be fair to Metti Hassan, since then, Tucker Carlson has apologized for his support and endorsement of Donald Trump. The conversation between Medi and Bossum happened prior to Tucker making that statement. But nonetheless, I thought what was really interesting about that conversation is, you know, I wouldn't call it a divide, but there is a debate among people on the left who do care deeply about this issue and see an opportunity to, potentially work with people that we typically disagree with on other issues wholeheartedly. However, others say, I've got hang-ups about the past. Maybe it doesn't make sense to work with them. Maybe they have bad intentions. I'm in the camp of if you can find or build a coalition that can apply enough pressure

to change our system of government so it's not controlled by a foreign entity, to save people's lives, by the way, all across the globe, when you really think about it, I'm gonna go in that direction. First of all, shout out to Mahdi Hassan Habili. I love you. We have this friendly argument and friendly panther. It's actually very lively. But here's the thing.

I know that some of those people said horrible things about us in the past, but I'm willing to actually work with someone who want me out of the country tomorrow against someone who want me dead today. And also to be fair, there was this conversation between Megan Kelly and Tucker Carlson, where Megan Kelly tells Dr. Nelson, I realize that I have been manipulated and people just want me to go on this Muslim hate on and on and on. And then I'm just like recalibrating, rethinking everything that I was being told. So this is a win.

And this whole purity test, like if you just said this in the past, I'm not going to work with you. I'm happy to work with someone who hate my guts today. I'm happy to have, and I'm actually, I'm willing, maybe when I work with him, maybe this shift will happen. And if it doesn't happen, let's get this foreign influence out of the picture. And then we can fight together. I'm happy to do this.

But this kind of purity test, oh, I'm not going to talk to Candace, I'm going to talk to Carter. I think we are just limiting ourselves. I mean, look at the Zionists. They don't care. They work with the left and they have Barry Weiss for the left and they have Ben Shapiro for the left, to the right. They have, they they they wave the flag of Judeo Christian values for the right.

And it's like, hey, we have the biggest gay parade. for the liberals. It's, they're working the game, they don't care. I think in politics, you shouldn't be too sensitive. And we have seen people tearing each other apart in political debates, and then they work together. I mean, look for example at Ted Cruz, who had been him and his wife, humiliated by Trump, and he's just like, you know, he's-

I know, but he's- You gotta have a little bit of self-respect. Yes, but like, but none of those people did that extreme. The most things, like, Muslims are this, Muslims and that, and then, Many of them now are actually backtrack. It's like, wait a minute, I have been manipulating. Maybe I shouldn't think this true. So to find that opportunity and not take it and just like sit out in our corner, sulking about what they have said in the past, I think it is not strategic.

And I think we should grow up, it's politics. We need to put our feelings aside. We have a bigger issue, which is that Zionist control of the government, of the media. And we just not just like, instead of just sitting there, it's like, no, I'm not gonna talk to people. Yeah. Yeah. I've got a lot of strong opinions on this. And I'm on the exact opposite end of that spectrum as Medi is.

And by the way, look, there's an example. So I massively disagree with Medi and AOC on that issue. And I'm still friends with Betty. I don't have to hate them just because we disagree on an issue. Okay, or we disagree on many issues. So what? I think the concerns he raises are totally valid, right? And the thing is, if you're not consuming Tucker Carlson's show or watching Candice,

Owens are tracking the subtle, but they do exist. The evolutions that they've gone through on certain things, including their perceptions of Muslims, then it's easy to believe that they're just the same person they were like several years ago. But people do grow. Like I do believe in redemption. That doesn't mean that I'm on their side on everything or I agree with them on everything. But on this issue, which is a pretty freaking important issue, we do agree.

Yeah, so look, I'll probably go further than both you guys. And that's not easy to do. So look, a whole bunch of things. And a surprising admission in here coming up in a minute that links apparently back to you, which I didn't know until I just saw that clip. But first, I don't understand the conversation. Like I get like, so a lot of people in our audience too, they hate Tucker, they hate Marjor Taylor Green and Candace from the past.

Okay, I get that part, right? So but it's like Tucker, for example, say, called the Iraqis monkeys, right? back in the day. Right. So but now when he changes and he goes, I'm sorry for what I said before. And now I think it's totally unfair to attack Muslims and Muslims pray five times a day. I'm not gonna hate a guy who prays five times a day. He says that and Candace has we've been manipulated to hate Muslims and I'm sorry for my role in that.

Well, on that issue, what else do you want? If you say that's not enough, you're being utterly unreasonable and purposely unreasonable. More than that, you're being counterproductive because you're discouraging other people from ever apologizing or having a moment of realizing they were wrong and being public about it. It's just like the purity litmus test. You just have to stop. The puritanical approach to politics really had to take a back seat. 100%. So first, also look, on a personal level, I love you guys if you're in this camp, but you're being kind of a jerk.

If somebody does something to you wrong to you in your life, right? And then they come and apologize and say, hey, I'm working to make up for that to, and I'm going to help your people or you or whatever it might be. And you go, shut up, I don't want to talk to you. Well, okay, brother, initially it was their fault. Now when you don't accept their apology and their help, it's kind of your fault. Not kind of, it's definitely your fault. I love it. I love it.

I love that, man. Your energy, man. You get it there. And I get that frustration. I used to get very, very frustrated about this myself. But at the end of the day, I see it as this. Either you're with us or you're not. And if you're not, that's you're right.

I mean, it is what it is. But I just don't think you're going to accomplish much. And we haven't accomplished much in this country by pursuing policies purely through a partisan lens. Right? Let me jump in and make a couple more points before I get to the surprising part. So first off, you're absolutely right, Bassam. So Miriam Edelson not only gave to Donald Trump, she gave to Bill Clinton. Yeah, right?

See, they don't care. They don't care. I could show you a thousand Israel first donors that give to both sides because they're not schmucks. They're not people who are like, oh, I will do a purity test even if Israel loses. No, they're like, I gotta get Israel to win no matter what, you're Republicans, Democrats, I'll work with you. I'll do anything, I'll do anything for you, right? All right, so I'm better than you. To guys who are trying to help you.

Like, no, that's insane. Sorry, sorry, but it is. Secondly, our house is on fire. Yeah, don't come at me with, oh, hey, I'm worried about the leaky faucet. Brother, we're gonna deal with the leaky faucet after we put out the goddamn fire. Right. Okay, there's an raging inferno. Israel drags us into wars.

Israel makes us pay hundreds of billions of dollars. These, the cavalry has arrived, right? And you know, you say, oh, that's a rag tag cavalry. Oh, that cavalry did something wrong. Brother, bring in the hoses, let's put out the fire, let's take Israel out of the country, out of our government, out of our media. Then we can go back to carried interest loophole arguments. A couple of things.

Let's say, for example, they didn't apologize. Let's say, for example, they're still there in their own way. When I went into, on Candace Owens, there are so many people who didn't know who I am and they watch Candace religiously, it's like, hey, wait, I didn't know about you. And now I'm more informed. Oh, I like, well, thank you so much for what you said. You're speaking to their audience. Yeah, I'm speaking to their audience.

And the same way when I went to, I'm not making the comparison, but Pierce Morgan, you know, on a person level, he's a nice guy. I have so many issues with how he runs his media coverage. He knows what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing. But this whole moment of me, the explosion happened on his platform for people that didn't know how I am. Right. So the thing is, you just like can't limit yourself in your little bubble and you sit up. around there, I don't like people.

I need people to be to be nicer. It doesn't work this way. I think, and this is going to sound a little selfish, but I think you come across something that tears you up inside so much that you are willing to do anything and everything to make it stop. Yeah. And I personally cannot stomach the endless slaughter and the absolute suffering that is being carried out by now, right now by the Israeli government with our support, with our resources, I will do anything

to make it stop. I can't tell you how many nights, you know, doom scrolling, I can't help it. I care about the story, I want to know what's going on, I look for updates, I look for updates on Gaza all the time. Netanyahu just bragged about taking over more territory in the Gaza Strip, he bragged about it. Now if I talk about it on the show the way that I am now with this tone, you're an anti-Semite. Okay, but the prime minister of Israel is bragging about taking about.

taking over more Gaza, Palestinian territory in Gaza. Okay, I will do anything to make it stop, anything. And if that means working with someone who doesn't believe in my reproductive rights, as Tucker Carlson does not believe in my reproductive rights, that's fine. I can fight them on that issue later. But right now, I want Israel's control of our government out, and I want to stop supporting Israel. I want to decouple. And I want to stop paying for it.

100%. 100%. I mean, forget, forget the atrocities. Consider me as a white American who doesn't care what's happening outside it. This is coming out of my paycheck. This is coming out of all of our paycheck. Yes. And now we are suffering from homelessness, lack of health care, terrible education,

and they have universal health care. They have like a level university education, and they have almost free housing on our dime. We are paying from our own taxes for people to do Alia and go to Israel on a birthright trip and to go there. They use our money to propagandize, okay, to basically try to brainwash Americans into supporting them and hating the entirety of the Muslim population. So many says something there, so I don't want to give them a pass. But brother, who asked you to give him a pass?

Right, like so do we disagree on Tucker on abortion? Of course we do. Will we fight him tooth and nail on that issue? Of course we will. Who asked you to vote for him for president? Who asked him, we're not the pope, we can't like say, I now absolve you of all your sins, right? That's not how it works.

But so the AOC thing piss me off more, to be honest, because she's kind of saying like she rejected Marjorie Taylor Green's help on the war. First of all, I don't know what that means. So can I just, let me finish this. Because who are you to reject that help? Like who asked you and who are you to speak on behalf of all of us? So there's a giant anti-war movement who's thrilled with MTG's help, right? Whether we agree or disagree with her on other issues.

So but on top of that, I was born Muslim. I obviously greatly empathize my family's Muslim. So you're gonna reject help for Muslims on our behalf? No, you're not. No, you're not, you don't speak for Muslims. And you don't get to reject allies for us on our behalf and go, no, I declare you anti-Semitic, so I will reject you. Well, okay, you reject them in a closet, okay, in a corner, but you're not

rejecting him on my behalf or on any Muslim America's behalf or on the Palestinians behalf. So check yourself because she's always talking about like how she stands up for marginalized communities. BASM, I feel like we're kind of a marginalized community to say the least. We are and the thing is AOC, I'm sorry that you were going to say something bad. No, no, I forgot. It's okay. AUC reminds me with the long history of how Democrats give them give us lip service and then they do nothing. Like they're yeah, they're, yeah, they So like AUSU, like, oh, we are against.

But you have voted to give defensive weapon to Israel. Same way with Obama, which is a huge disappointment, huge letdown. I was like a big Obama supporter. But now they're just like, at least Republicans are honest. I mean, I'm not saying that that's a good thing. But there's one other thing about Republicans that I just need to say and people are going to hate it. But it's just the truth from my personal experience, right? And it could just be anecdotes.

Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe this isn't like a widespread thing. You know the hardest part of starting TYT? It wasn't being on camera because I'm pretty. Let's be honest. Or try to figure out this new thing called YouTube. Yeah, sure that was hard. But one of the hardest things, believe it or not, was launching our merch store, ShopTyT.

When the right decides they want something, and this is unfortunate when it comes to a lot of issues, including reproductive rights, but when they decide they want to accomplish something, not only do they go for it, they are singularly focused on getting it done. And I really envy that. I really envy that because I mean, people think like, oh, what's Anna up to? Is she, she's involved in a griff? No, I've been doing this show since I was 20 years old. I'm turning 40 this year.

No. And I'm sick of losing. I'm sick of loose, yes, you're not turning 29? That is crazy. I wish, I wish, I'm middle-aged woman now, old lady, but it's okay, it's fine. But the point is, you know, as you get older and you look back at your life and what you've accomplished or haven't accomplished, I love what I've accomplished here at TYT, but when I take a step back and I look at the country, what has been my part in making

this country either better or worse? And I don't know if I've made it worse, I definitely don't feel like I've made it better. And I'm trying to recalibrate and think of other strategies because I want to win. I don't care about coming on this show. I'm being loved by everyone. I want to make the country better. It's that simple. Yeah.

May I throw a last curveball to that conversation about who should we support and platform? And I know that this will come as a little bit unorthodox. You guys are aware with the whole thing Dan Belzarian and Randy Fine. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because as a matter of fact, I would love for Dan Balzarian to go in and win it. And I would love to even platform Dan Balzarian and interview him. And I'll tell you why. And I know that Dan Balzarin has like a lot of stuff that we can criticize his past hedonistic

lifestyle. But wouldn't it be a sort of a poetic justice for people to choose that guy who was supposedly the least qualified for Congress? just to tell people to APEC, we would choose anybody other than you, because that's what they did with Trump. They hated the left so bad. It's like, you know what, we're going to get that guy that convicted felon, and we would choose him over anybody. At least Dan Belzerian is honest about what he did. At least he's just like, he knows what he did.

And he said, like, this is behind me. And I'm not hiding it other than the people in Congress who hide on at least Dan Belzarin was not on Epstein Island. I'll tell you well, yeah. That's why I say, by the way, vote for all Muslims running, because at least you know they're not going to support Israel. They're not going to give me away your money to Israel. By the way, that's working in Michigan with Abdullah al-Said now taking the lead. Because why, everybody was with Hassan Piker and they don't love Israel.

Everybody's like, oh, they don't love Israel? Yeah, okay, yeah, that's good. And you know what? Go to any comments on any interview that Dan Belzarin does. And every time they say like you're, you're anti-Semitic, Everybody's like, my vote goes to Dan Belzarian. And that is actually a qualifying quality right now to be anti-Israel. That would definitely send a message and I see the benefit of that, right?

I mean, one can only dream of a message that strong being sent, we'll see. Okay, so two things real quick. So I'm Belzarian. My only comment there is between Randy Fine, because that's who he's running against in Florida, and Dan Belzarian, if those are your only two choices, Dan Bilzarian is a hundred times more moral, okay? So now that's obvious because Randy Fine has said that we should murder millions of people. Bilzerian hasn't said we should kill anyone. He has said outrageous things that are not true in my opinion about Jewish people, etc.

So I'm not saying he's moral. But in terms of who's more moral, that's not a contest. But so for any decent human being between not only nuking 2 million people in Gaza, which Randy Fine suggested, but he talked about slowly starving them to death. Yeah. You can't be any more immoral than that. But if you ask people in Washington, mainstream media reporters or politicians, 100 out of 100 will tell you that Randy Fine is better than Dan Belzerian. And they're 100% wrong.

Not because Belzarian is a good guy, but because Randy Fine is one of the worst human beings on planet Earth. But since he's up Israel's ass, they're like, oh, well, you want to murder people, as long as it's for Israel, right? And finally, my embarrassing confession. Okay, so. Is that a surprise? Yeah. Okay, so look, Candace told you in that clip that we just showed you Bessam. Yeah, she got her ideas about, wait, maybe we're wrong about Muslims from you.

Okay, about the killing, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, and how bad the killing was in Gaza and it woke her up, and then she started to think it. So now, so it goes from you to Candace, and here's the embarrassing part. So when Candace first said a while back, you know, I've been the victim of Israeli propaganda, my whole, life and they got me to hate Muslims. Yeah. That was the first time I thought, oh, wait a minute, it was Israeli propaganda. Like I had never thought of it because it's like I grew up here. So when you ask your fish, how's the water?

He says what water, right? So my experience was what Israeli propaganda? You know, part of the reason I despise mainstream media so much is because I believe them. They got, they brainwashed me into believing nonsensical things like Ronald Reagan is a cowboy and he's a guy, you know, running a shining city on a hill and you know, and, and Obama is great. Yeah, and Obama is amazing and he's for real change, right, et cetera, et cetera. And they have been brainwashing us by calling Muslims terrorists when Israel attacked them and took their land over and over and over again in 48 and 67.

Again, during Gaza. And the entire time American media was like, no, no, the one taking the land, the one doing the genocide, the one doing the attack are the victims. Yeah. And there's, oh my God, the victims of Israel. I mean, what a bunch of preposterous liars, right? All lying to us in unison to get us not just to support Israel, that would be one thing, but to hate Muslims so that it's easier for Israel to attack them.

And you don't feel bad because they just. Just killed terrorists according to American media. And so when Candace said that, it kind of did a light bulb for me, even though I grew up Muslim American, right? And so don't tell me that Candace hasn't made a difference. And you could say, yeah, I don't believe the First Lady of France has a penis. So what? So what? Okay.

Oh, if you agree with Candace on one thing, you have to agree with her on everything. Why? Who made up that rule? Yeah. preposterous rule. No, that rule is made up to divide us. Right? So no, Candace and Tucker and Megan Kelly now are shockingly, yes, it is shocking, but it's absolutely true. They have been terrific on the issue of war, Israel, and being kind to Muslim Americans. If you want me to reject that kind of help, sorry, but there's no chance I'm gonna do that.

It's a very unfair ask. And honestly, I don't, I don't like the problem with Prutantical people is because they believe that they are more moral than others, right? They are so moral, they cannot have their morality stained with any kind of association with anyone who's ever said anything wrong, which by the way is all of us. They've tried to cancel all of us for any transgressions in the past, right? So sorry, but I don't think you're more moral.

May I add something like a detail that a conversation that has happen between me and Candace owns off camera. You know what? Let's hold that thought. Okay, right. Take a quick break. Let's do that when we come back. A personal story with the conversation with Candace. We'll be right back.

Okay. Tucker Carlson, a terrible friend. All right, so Durge, I think slightly disagrees with us. These are members on t.com. Says, let's look forward, not back, right? If it's a crime, no, we look backwards. That's how it works. If it's not a crime and it's just a transgression,

And now they're on the right side of things. Yeah, that's what I say. But if you say no, hold it against them forever, I hear you. Trump, lawyer writes, saying, yes, be strategic and use these people who have done a hell a lot to destroy the system against all our lives in the past. Agree with Bassem, we need these guys to shift for the kind of vote we need for us and them. It's totally true, by the way. Wang John says, I respect Medi, but he's wrong on this one.

And I hope he'll change his mind. If someone calls me a terrible racist slur one day and opposes a genocide on the next, a gladly joined force with that racist person in opposing the genocide. We can go beat the crap out of each other in the parking lot after. Yeah. I like that. He says after we stopped the genocide. My personal feelings are nowhere near as important as stopping Israel from killing innocent people, period.

I just got to add one quick thing to that. I mean, the only person I'm surprised by is Medi because AOC, et cetera, are different. Maybe because many because many didn't grow up here. But as a person, as a Muslim American who grew up here, if I eliminated anyone who said something bad about Muslims, I'd eliminate almost everyone in politics. So then who am I going to work with? I'm just going to sit there and yell into a closet, right? It doesn't make any sense.

I feel like we've done that for many, many years. Yeah. Right? Well, yeah, in a little bit. Can I have a personal story? Yeah, one second. We're almost out of this break. We'll be right back.

Okay. I'm TYT, Jank, Anna, and Bassam with you guys today. Rage Rock for now, thank you for sending in 10 memberships on YouTube. You're amazing. I'm gonna read two member comments here because they're relevant. Jessica Smith on YouTube says, is Bassam married? If not, I live in the bay. Get it, girl.

You get it. Okay. I'm gonna take that as he's married. I am married with two children. And progress. But also I'm a Muslim, am I allowed for whites? Yeah, got to be open mind to Muslims. All right, and one more from t.com member here.

Progressive veteran says, Anna, you are the reason I started listening to TYT, and I was a Republican when I was in my teens. So there you go. By the way, let's just acknowledge, Megan Kelly's journey didn't come out of nowhere. It came through conversations she had about foreign policy with Glenn Greenwald. Conversations and me, but honestly, she's had a longer relationship with Glenn Greenwald, and she trusts him, and he is obviously an expert on foreign policy. So conversations with people, including those you vehemently disagree with, can move people.

And you shouldn't go into it with, I'm gonna persuade them, I'm gonna change their mind, but just by having conversation, you're introducing new information to them, you know? Anyway. Yeah, 100%. I mean, look at this cycle that Bassam set up. Bassam goes to talk to Candace. Candice then has a conversion, not just because of that, but partly because of that. And then Candace affects others and then Tucker and Megan start to affect not just Republicans,

but independence. We're affecting independence and you're getting into an ecosystem here that is going in the right direction and so the wrong direction. So tell us about your conversation. Are you sure? Can you say that? I want to spill to see. Okay, so off camera, I was asking for, It's just like, I mean, you seem to be very smart, but still you were parroting propaganda.

I mean, how did this happen? He said like, you don't understand. They get us from a very young age. I was picked up when I was 18. And then the circle that they put you around you, like picked up, you know, like Ben Shapiro, the daily wire, all of that. And then I said, so what happened when you're starting to switch? So like, first of all, when I started tweeting about like what is happening, like her first

awakenings, first of all, they send you your friends, your circle of friends. They start talking, it's like, we don't like what you're happening. First, they send the people that you love that are very close with you. Yeah, this is very concerning what you said. And then when, when, and then that holds me back and then I take two steps back. And then when I go further, then they come with the threats. Oh no. Then they comes like, you know, your career might be derailed.

So they do that first of all, they go in with the love and then they go. in with the threats. And then at a certain point, like, wait a minute, these are not my friends, these are my handlers. I feel like that's happening to Theo Vaughn right now. So just recently, Rogan threw Theo Von under the bus. Like Theo Vaughan was on Rogan's show and just really opened up to Rogan and his audience about what he's feeling like, just this dread over the state of the world, what the government

of the US is getting involved in in the Middle East, AI. Like you can tell that he's tormented by a lot of the things that were tormented. by and Joe Rogan was like like basically make gaslighting him and making it seem like he's losing his mind. Maybe it's the antidepressants he's on and then later when Theo's not even on the show, he starts talking about the Ovan on his podcast. And he said he might kill himself like it's all about like how he like he did the show and didn't go well and he kind of like hinted that oh you know what he's not in a good place

and I really didn't like that. Yeah, that was not appropriate. That was terrible and Theo Vaughan by the way and I hope Theo forgives me for for kind of saying this because this was a private conversation. He wanted to host me. I went on Civone, but this took two, three months. Every time he said, like, I want to get you on the show. And then he would, he would change him mind. And then I understood that he was under a lot of pressure for him not to get me on the show. And he said, like, you know, there was threats about like people walking and sponsor.

And then he said, like, you know what? I don't care. It's breaking my heart. And I need and I need to do that and I have to say Thievon is one of the nicest sweetest person ever and his right his heart is in the right place and we need to protect this guy I agree and he's not suicidal he's not yeah none of us are suicidal to be absolutely clear okay so all right but I have my cats I need to live for them yeah look one last thing about that if you're claiming that the Supporters of Israel do not put pressure on media figures to support Israel, you're on a different planet. Yeah. And it's a weird thing to claim, like, you didn't go through that.

Wait, what do you mean I didn't go through that? Or Bassim or Theo Vaughn didn't go through that. Are you saying that we just made up the whole story? They talked about this yesterday on the show, it's like civil rights workers come back and saying that they had hot coffee through it on their face when they were sitting on counter diners in Alabama and they go, liar, you're offending them white people. It's all your fault. No, why are you invalidating my experience, right? No, it definitely has happened to me dozens, if not hundreds of times where supporters of Israel have attacked and tried to hurt

our business, try to hurt our careers, have tried to block us in a hundred different ways, have dachs our spouses, etc. Don't tell me that there aren't thugs who support Israel in this country that don't do that because that is gas lighting I cannot bear. And everyone should know you're a giant liar if you say that, right? Right. So like what the trick that they do is, are you saying all Jews to this? No, we literally no one ever said that, right? Except for Israelis. No, no. Right? Aren't they the ones who conflate it? Exactly. Yeah, exactly. So they're like, oh, you're attacking all Jews. No, brother,

literally no one said that. You just made that up to hide behind Jewish people as human Shields. We're saying Israel supporters did that. I have Jewish family, they didn't do it to me, right? I have tons of Jewish friends, they didn't do it to me. But that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Other people who are die hard, ludic, lunatic Israel supporters, which there are tons of them in this country. Mark Levin. You have done that to all of us. And then unfortunately, a lot of people turn around in media and politics and they go, no, you're the one who's a bad guy, okay? They attacked you, it's your fault.

You shouldn't say that, you're lying. Okay, well, all right, then you're part of them. You're part of the thugs who are intimidating, not just Muslims in this country, but anyone who dares oppose Israel. I've now talked to dozens of people who have been fired from their jobs, regular people, doctors, carpenters, random people, including Jewish Americans who have been fired for opposing Israel. And then every time you tell the media, they're like, oh my God, you've heard Israeli feelings. Who cares about you? You're irrelevant. Shut up, you don't even support

Israel. But you have offended someone important and real an Israeli supporter. Okay, well, then you're admitting you're racist, which is pretty much all of mainstream media. Let's talk about some fugitives, yeah? All right, so since we're on the topic of Israel, there's some developments when it comes to the ICC, so let's get into it. In relation to Israel's military operations and attacks in Gaza from 7th October, we conclude that Israeli authorities are responsible for war crimes, crimes against humanity, and violations of international humanitarian and human rights law, including extermination, intentionally directing attacks against civilians and civilian objects, murder, or willful killing.

Crazy to think that the UN had put out that statement nearly two years ago. However, today we're learning that the International Criminal Court is filing additional arrest warrants against Israeli officials, both politicians and officials with. within the IDF, although weirdly the ICC has denied this. I don't know why. We'll get to the details in just a second, but real quick, just curious what you think about this, Bassem. Well, first of all, they have already told us in many ways that the ICC and ICJ is for

the African dictators and Putin. It doesn't affect us. They're putting it in place as a juggernaut to as a pressure point on the other people. And the second thing is, I think one. of the judges, either the ICJ or the ICA country member, said he's sanctioned. He cannot even use a credit card because he is sanctioned. So America punishes those judges. As a matter of fact, when I announced my tour in Germany, I got a message from a German

reporter. He said, I have been talking about Israeli crimes and I have been sanctioned by my own government, which means I cannot get a credit card, I cannot buy a ticket to your show, I cannot be gifted a ticket to the show or else the people who give me the ticket will be in breaking the law. That's crazy. That's crazy. They, they, they, they, they cannot even, they cannot have a bank account. He cannot pay his bills.

Okay, so just to be clear, just to be clear, those who wish to prosecute literal war criminals who are slaughtering indiscriminately slaughtering innocent civilians, those are the ones. Those are the people who have suffered greater consequences than the war criminals themselves. So real quick, just a few more details about the ICC is allegedly doing, although again, the whole disagreement about whether or not this is happening is really strange. However, Baselel Smotrich happens to be one of the politicians who has already come out and in a press conference said that he is expecting an arrest warrant from the ICC. There are other politicians, which we'll get to in just a second.

But first, I just want to show how Smotrich responded to this. Take a look. The issuance of arrest warrants against the Prime Minister is a declaration of war. The issuance of arrest warrants against the defense minister and finance minister is a declaration of war. And in the face of a declaration of war, we will respond with war. The Palestinian Authority has started a war and it will get a war. From today onward, every economic or other target within my power to harm, under my authority as finance minister and as a minister in the defense ministry, will be targeted. Not talk and gimmicks, actions.

I hereby announced the first target that will be struck. Immediately after finishing my remarks here, I will sign an order to evacuate Khan al-Hamar on my authority as a minister in the defense ministry. I promise all our enemies.

Every day. Every day. So the Times of Israel reported that the ICC is seeking an arrest warrant against Smotrich over his orders to demolish Palestinian villages and homes in the West Bank. Just to give you an idea, according to the Betselem Human Rights Organization, 59 Palestinian communities home to more than 4,023 people in areas C and B of the West Bank, have been forcibly displaced as a result of settler violence since the war, which started on October 7th, 2023, genocide, I wouldn't say war. But nonetheless, you know, the fact of the

matter is Smotrich has been front and center in stealing land and homes from the Palestinians in the West Bank. And what he's threatening to do now, to do now is to demolish a Bedouin community in the West Bank in response to the ICC's arrest warrant. How dare you put like a warrant against me, all right, I'm gonna evacuate another village. What the hell? I know, this is so insulting. It's so insulting, man.

So when October 7th happened, they said, well, that was a physical violent attack. Obviously we get to do the same, except they said we get to do a hundred times more. That's not really a thing. A hundred times more means you kill all the civilians and you're a genocidal freak, which is the entire Israeli cabinet, that's obvious, it's by definition, right? You murder 100 times of Hamas, if Hamas is a terrorist, you're 100 times the terrorist. But our media, who I loathe, because they're the worst, most biased people on the entire planet, say no, only Muslims are terrorists.

In a country with weapons of mass destruction, a nuclear weapon, Iron Dome, the best military in the Middle East, comes in and kills a hundred times of civilians. The Palestinians lives are irrelevant to us in American media. They don't count as human beings. So Smotrich is not a terrorist. In fact, when the International Criminal Court says that they should be arrested, these are people who have committed crimes against humanity. Benjamin Nanyahu, Yoav Ghalan, Vizello, Smoutrich, are press.

goes, no, the whole world is anti-Semitic. These guys are innocent and wonderful. And the only reason why the ICC is saying anything is because the whole world is anti-Semites or against poor Jewish people who just happened to be, not Jewish people, but the Israelis, slaughtering all of their neighbors. And stealing land. So at a bare minimum, can you point out that the cabinet ministers in Israel are terrorist thugs who are absolutely ethnically cleansing, not just Gaza, but the West Bank where there was

no attack and no justification. No, our media's a bunch of liars and cowards who say, no, Israel's right about everything, and all of you are anti-Semites, bowed to Israel. And then go, we're objective. So the ICC is expected to issue warrants to defense minister Israel Katz. As I mentioned, finance minister, Basel L Smotrich, National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gavir, IDF, chief of staff, Lieutenant General Eyal Zamir and IDF Southern Command Chief, Major General Yaniv Asor. And I'm wondering if maybe the reason why the ICC wants to do this in a sealed fashion and is kind of publicly denying these arrest warrants is because of the retaliation they faced as a result

of, yeah, I just told you they get sanctioned and say, can you imagine sanctioning a human being that he cannot pay the bills, cannot have a bank account, cannot choose a credit card, can't even be gifted. It is crazy. So like we are used to the sections on the state level. But I didn't understand, I didn't know that you can actually do that to human beings, to just individuals. Like, like, the one of the judges, he's crying, so like I can't even get on a plane.

I can get it on a train. I can get by a bus ticket. I don't know how these people live. I don't understand. So this is like if America said during the Nuremberg trials, how dare you prosecute the Nazis. We're gonna take the prosecutors and we're gonna sanction them and make sure they never live comfortably again. These poor Nazis that you guys are trying to put on trial. All they did was murder all these Jews. That would be horrible, right? Now that is literally what our government

is saying. All they did was murder these Muslims. And now you're gonna try to hold them accountable? That's it, we're gonna terrorize you. Well, then you're saying you're on the side of the fascist. And there's no question about that. And there's no complexity. to it. And now look at what Smartrich is saying. When you did war on October 7th, in their definition, then we did 100 times a war. Now you're doing diplomacy. You're going through diplomatic routes, the United Nations, international criminal court. I'm still going to call it war. It doesn't matter what you do. You do war, you do peace. I'm going to be DS. It's war. Yeah, exactly. You're going to march in the streets, war.

Everything. Post on Facebook. War. War, yeah. Israel's new slogan is war. I forgot. I forgot. the question. Totally. Yeah. Totally. It's a great slogan. I think I think for them when they're calling everything is anti-semitic. It's like, you know what? It's actually, we should actually do like a slogan. The truth is anti-semitic. I mean, that's what they're saying. You just pointing out what is true. It's like it's still anti-semit. I know. Yeah. All right, we got to take another break. When we come back, we got to talk about 1-877 cars for kids. Okay, because that money ain't going where you think it's going. We'll be right back. Members first, lots of love for Bassem out there.

First, Joseph Joachim says, wow, this is the best power panel, even though it's Tuesday, not Friday. Progressive Aussie says, excellent panel and great conversation. Love Bassam, Jen Kanan. Boobber Dragon Cat says, wow, this panel is my brain kicking on all cylinders, baby. Thank you. Wong, John says, Randy finds a septic tank that made a wish to become a real boy. Oh, my God. But halfway through the gene, halfway through the genie said, F it.

Then James O'Hara, as a YouTube member, writes in, Bassim is one of the strongest voices against the Israeli slash USA genocide in Gaza. That's from another old guy in Scotland. Mark Francis asked a logical question, are we winning the war in Iran? No, of course, is the answer. To be fair to mainstream media, at least they agree that we're not winning the war in Iran. Charles Heinz says, love Basim. Turkey al-Balushi, right, said, man, I need to sleep, but I'm staying awake for Bassem.

Oh, is he in Istanbul? Like that's, I don't know. I like that. Hey, come to my show in Istanbul. I'll be Turkey, Turkey, Turkish. That's June 19th. Yes. June 19th in Istanbul. M. Wedgley says, I think if Massey loses, a Dem will take the general. I heard that last night. Maybe, maybe. GGS Warrior says LMAO, TYT having beers with everyone all of a sudden. I don't know that it's all of a sudden, but yes, it is a little ironic to have Muslims having beers with everyone.

All right, we'll be back. Back on TYT, Janky, Granik, Kasparian, and Bassam Yusuf with you guys today. We're co-hosting. Thank you to William and Gabe's World for gifting five memberships on YouTube, and thank you to Bunyan surgery, which is hilarious. It's painful, painful. Present won forever for both joining through the beautiful join button below the video on YouTube. And everybody else, you could do it through t.t.com slash join, given that we are besieged by Israel's supporters, we certainly would appreciate your support. All right, Anna, what's next?

So, wait, before we keep going, there was something I wanted to ask Bassem about. What was that last comment you read? About having a beer all of a sudden with everyone? No, it was something else. It's okay. About Randy Fine? No, I'll remember, I'll remember. Sorry guys, sorry about that.

Okay, so let's just get through the next story. I'm sure it'll come up again. All right, so a California judge has ordered some pretty serious changes for that infamous Cars for Kids commercial that if you're living in the United States, you no doubt have heard over and over and over again. And it's because it turns out that the original ad, the super annoying ad, kind of a hid the the fact that the money wasn't going to go where people thought it was going to go. So if you don't know what I'm talking about, here's the jingle I'm referring to. I gotta say the laziness of the ad really bothers me, right?

Aside from the fact that they were hiding the fact that the money was actually not going to disadvantaged kids, in fact it was funding, well, field trips, and also adult dating situations for Zionists, they should have tried harder with a better commercial, you know. Well, it seems that worked. Yeah, they saved, they raised a ton of money and obviously sent it, as you're about to find out, gave it to spend it on purposes they didn't tell you about. I'll just say as a preview real quick, they said it was for young, disadvantaged American kids here in this country.

They weren't young, they weren't American, they weren't disadvantaged, and it wasn't in this country. It's crazy. Go ahead. Okay, so basically at the heart of this story is a lawsuit that should have been filed decades ago, I feel like. However, if you watch that ad, you can obviously tell that the donate, it makes it seem like the donations are going to go toward underprivileged American kids and in this case to kids in California specifically, but that's actually not the case. According to its website, Cars for Kids has facilitated the donation of more than 500,000 cars. The organization also works closely with and funds another nonprofit group known as ORA,

which runs summer orthodox camps in the tri-state area, and organizes annual trips to Israel for 17 and 18-year-olds. So you are donating your car under the assumption that the funds raised through that vehicle that you've donated. Again, it's gonna stay in the United States to help disadvantaged kids in the United States. No such thing is happening. Money is going to a Orthodox Jewish organization that is funding trips to Israel. But it even gets murkier and crazier than that.

So let's talk about the lawsuit real quick. The case was brought against Cars for Kids by a man by the name of Bruce Puderbra. And he filed this lawsuit in August of 2021. So he alleged that he alleged that in that he donated a 2001 Volvo XC earlier that year to Carsper Kids after hearing the ad over and over on the radio. At the time, he expected his donation made in California to benefit children in California. And then he was shocked to find out that wasn't actually the case. So it was only after his donation that he learned from a neighbor that the funds were directed

to a Jewish organization in New York, according to the ruling. That's not what I wanted, he said. I feel taken advantage of by the ad and information that was not. there. So he testified that the ad contained nothing about specific religious affiliation, and he had a huge problem with that. He also added that although he called the organization's phone number, he never visited its website, which is the only place they specify that it's a Jewish organization. And that, if that wasn't bad enough, by the way, the testimony given by the company's COO was amazing. Like, it was so insanely candid, and I appreciate the candor here. So

So this is SD Landau and SD's testimony indicates that 25% of Cars for Kids' revenue comes from California. Of the 120,000 vehicles donated to Cars for Kids each year, about a quarter of them come from California. They have no presence in California. They're doing nothing for kids in California. And that was admitted through the testimony in the case, whereas Peter Braw assumed his donation would benefit some in need, Landau said the organization's primary purpose is not to help

economically disadvantaged children. So what is the purpose? With 60% of cars for kids is fun going to ORA, Landau said the national charity serves as ORA's primary financial backer contributing upwards of $45 million to it annually. And some of that money doesn't even stay within the United States. So according to the court documents in 2022, the organization allocated for $437,000 to Middle East outreach, transferred $16.5 million to North America and the Middle East and spent $16.5 million on a building in Israel where it's working to grow its presence. I just. I have so many questions.

First of all, I have an observation. Landau. Does that name ring a bell? Kind of. You see Landau. He's the guy from either Zaka or Hadzullah United, the first respondent Israel, that first came up with the decapitated babies in Israel. It's the same, maybe it's the same family.

Oh, I don't know. They remember UCLendau. He's either Zaka or Hadzullah United. These are the first and this is the guy who was like on camera. It's like, oh, I have the pictures but you cannot show to anybody. And he showed the picture and the picture didn't say anything. I remember that Landau, wait a minute, I heard that name before. U.C. Lendau.

It's either Zaka or Hadzullah United. I got to look into that. I don't know for sure. I'm sure. Yeah, you see Lendau. I remember that I mean. Second of all, I remember, I used before I came to America, I used to come to America as a student and pay my own thing.

I remember like coming here like 20 plus years and I remember seeing that ad on television. I can't remember how long it was brunny, but I was like, this is such a stupid ad. Yeah, and the jingle was the worst. I was a tourist, I was an Egyptian tourist. I didn't have a green card. I was just like coming here to visit and it's 2005 for something. It's like wait a minute, like people donate their cards.

for this and that's the most important question this ad has been running for 20 plus years it took a guy a random guy who just asked his neighbor about it and then he says oh it doesn't go wait a minute where are all of the the regulators like it just took a guy a random so if this guy didn't ask his neighbor and how did this neighbor know there's so nice yeah what is this like a common knowledge it's just like people are just like oh yeah yeah what you this is the car of it, they send it to Israel. How did it come to light and why did it take a random guy just like, hey, I donated by Volvo of 2001 and it didn't go to where it's supposed to.

Like, where are the regulators? Can I just ask like when is it enough? Yeah. When is it enough? How much of our money do they need? When is it enough? By the way, I asked Chair GPD once, like how much money outside of the aid that goes to Israel is like billions of dollars, billions of dollars, just donations.

It's even the donation that goes to Israel more than the $4.2 billion that we've each year. Of course, yeah. But that's look, if people want to donate to Israel, that's their business, not my business. If you want the government to donate to Israel, then that's my business, because that's my money, right? So in terms of cars for kids, like to answer your question, we don't know for sure, of course, but generally speaking, what happens is if you want to regulate or hold accountable, any organization connected to Israel, They'll scream bloody murder, anti-Semites! And that'll scare the living crap out of everyone.

And then they get to do whatever crimes they want. And so, and if you're saying, well, that's hyperbole, well, Tom Alexander came here to rape our children. He's a cybersecurity official for Israel and we let him go. Oh, and by the way, can I say something about this? The whole thing about Nevada, this thing, operation about the result. This story was not run by a single mainstream media.

I know, I know, I know, I know. on Fox News, on MSNBC, never. It was all through podcasts. And people don't have any idea about this. And by the way. I mentioned it on Abby Phillips's show. I was on the panel. I mentioned it.

It was the craziest experience I've had on any debate show or panel show. Everyone just pretended like I didn't say it and they moved on. Yeah. You're not allowed to talk about it. And by the way, and I need to call it out, I was on Chris Hayes on ABC and we talked. And I think I'm missing something. MS now. I can't remember.

It was something, I can't remember it was Chris. I was one of those things. And then I mentioned about like Israel being like behind Epstein. And it's like, and they shut me down and they cut it and they never played that clip. That's amazing. No, because I mean, they're like, they're giant liars. I mean, Epstein is on record in the emails, especially from Dropsite News, working with Israel on every deal. Russia with Israel, Mongolia with Israel, UAE with Israel, the cybersecurity weapons.

It procures for Israel. Then the mainstream media goes out and goes, I think he might be Russian. Yeah. Okay, well then you're lying on behalf of Israel. This is not an omission, this is not an accident. You're doing it on purpose and it's weird. So back to cars for kids. So they say, oh, we're basically implying that they're gonna give it to eight to 10 year olds here in America.

I mean, look, first, it's not even a $16 million building in Israel. I mean, what an outrageous lie to pretend. I think they're building it's still for the kids. Oh yeah, yeah, it's for the American kids. I'm sorry, that's a bad joke. They're doing it for the kids. Oh, well. Like to bring in the kids.

By the way, that ad still plays. I saw someone like a user on X or in threads, can't remember. He's like actually filming it from his series. Like, this ad is still playing on television. Wow. Because I guarantee you that if you go state by state, there'll be somebody who works for Israel, a thug or a bought politician who will say, you're an anti-Semite.

Shut up. Leave them alone. Who cares if they're lying and brazenly robbing Americans thinking that they're helping young little kids. If you had a real ad, he would say, cars for Orthodox Jewish teenagers who want to hook up in Israel and get propaganda from Israel. But you don't do that. Instead, you pretend it's for us.

And then you use your disgustingly corrupt politicians here in America to let you get away with this robbery. May ask a question? Was this car crooked thing? Was it run by any mainstream media? outlet? I saw the USA today. Yes, yes, yes.

I think so. And I bet you's gonna run once and then they're gonna run right away. The thing is, here's the thing. And NBC News. There's the difference between media in the Middle East and media here. The media is like, hey, we do the news, but then they're gonna bury it. They're gonna bury it in line 286 in the article. They're gonna play it once on television.

They're not gonna pressure on it. But then the rest of it, Israel, Israel, Israel, Arab, the terrorists. It's like, this is the thing. This is the thing, it's like, hey, we don't hide the news, yes, but you bury it. Yeah, that's very true. Okay, I got to make one quick clarification. I'm blind, so I misread one of the graphics. So when I said that, you know, the organization, ORA allocated $437,000 to the Middle East outreach,

transferred $16.5 million to North Africa, not North America, North Africa and the Middle East. So I just want to make that clarification. And a difference 16 and a half million to Israel. Yeah. So, hey, look, it's not just Israel. It's also going to Orthodox Jews in North Africa. Just like the ad said, right? Thanks God.

This is cars for North Africa and Orthodox Jews. No, no. Anyways, look, to your point, Bassem, right now the Massey election is happening. The Israeli supporters gave $16 million to defeat Tom Massey. And it's not like they don't cover it. They do. They say, hey, 16 million, some from Paul Singer, some from Miriam Edelson. But do they say this election is a referendum on whether Israel is going to control our Congress?

Congress, they would never say that, even though it is patently obvious. And by the way, if you ask those reporters off camera, is this so that the Israeli lobby can control Congress? Because from then on, every Republican would vote with Israel no matter what. They will say, well, of course, that's definitely what's gonna happen. If Massey loses, every Republican will vote with Israel until the next election, for sure, at a bare minimum. Have you ever written that? No, no, no, I would never write that. Never, and you know what they'll do? Right after the election, they'll have collective amnesia.

And the next time a funding bill comes up for Israel, or a funding bill comes up for a war that Israel wants, they'll be like, no, Israel doesn't control Congress at all. That's nothing to do with it. It's anti-Semitic. Everybody's an anti-Semite. The whole country's an anti-Semite. The problem isn't with liars, the problem like cars for kids, or Israel as a country doing this genocide, etc.

The problem was with anyone accurately reporting it. So as Basim was saying, they're mainstream media, we're not saying, mainstream media seems to be saying collectively, the truth is anti-Semitic. Yes, they're Zionist owned. We need to stop being surprised by it. They're Zionist owned and they will tow the Zionist line. That is what will happen. One more thing.

Oh, you're being lied to and your money is being sent to Israel instead of poor children in the United States. Good, good, that's what we want. Okay. You know how they shame Middle Eastern countries? Like you have state-run media. You have state-run media. Here we have state-run media, but it's from a different state. Yeah, it's a different state.

It's ridiculous. Oh my God, the North Koreans have to be thinking, they're so embarrassed. They're like, now that's propaganda. In America, where they get you to believe that the war-mongering terrorists are the victims doing self-defense, and the people who are being occupied, oppressed and slaughtered are the terrorists. The North Koreans are like, wow, hats off, man. Nice job. So when we come back for the second hour, we'll talk about the latest updates from the mosque shooting that happened in San Diego yesterday.

We do have some clarity on the suspects and the number of people killed. So stick around. We'll be right back. Hey, Andrew, what's up? Hey, Jank, you ready to make the switch? Yeah, I guess. I promise it's easy. Universal, basic, and you get income. Yeah, you keep saying that.

But you sure I'm going to have coverage? Of course you will. You think I would have bad service? I'm Andrew Yang, of course, I have good service. Alright, let's try. But I'm so bad at tech. So, wait. Should I do this thing of the hashtag business?

Andrew, you're still on, right? Yep. Oh, I see it. Oh, yeah, I do see it. Here we go. I actually did not realize that you'd be searching in real time, but I love it. How much do people actually normally say? Yeah, the average American is going to say between,

$500 and $1,000 a year on Noble. Yeah, no. You know what I'm gonna do, Andrew? Are you ready to become a Noble member? The two buttons are do it and go back. There's no going back, we're doing it. We're doing it. Here we go Noble Mobile Mobile.

Oh my gosh, I just called you and are you now on Noble and not Verizon? Why didn't you tell me it was gonna be super easy? I know, man. Now you just stay away from your phone and watch the money roll in. I can do that. You got a phone, yeah. What the fuck? Jank, you still there?

Andrew? Oh, Prue. Well, at least I got an Oble Mo. It was really just one tape. The whole thing is wild. It's in my shoes. It's in my shoes. Hi, I'm Brett Ehrlich with Breaking News with Brett Erlick.

This is Breaking News with Brett Erlick. Hi. Red Erlick here. According to EPA head Scott Pruitt, climate change is not happening. He cited a meme on Facebook you saw. When pressed to back up this source, he said it must be accurate. be accurate because the watermark said it was made by a scientist. So your move, truth.

At TYT, our mission is to boldly pursue truth, challenge the establishment, and drive positive change. At a time when corporate capture of our media, our government, and our politics is nearly absolute. Everyday working people need a champion, a fight for them and a push back against the powerful interests that threaten our democracy itself. At TYT, we're proudly progressive and call out corruption and duplicity wherever we see it from Republicans, Democrats, or anyone else. And unlike mainstream news media outlets, we're not beholden to corporate advertisers to defense contractors, to Wall Street or to Big Pharma.

We only have to answer to our audience, and for nearly two decades, we've accomplished that by delivering honest, timely, and insightful perspectives on the day's news without fear or favor or concern for whose, toes we might step on or which powerful elites we might offend. And while we're super serious about the news, we also manage to do it in a way that is fun and lighthearted. We can do this together and serve our audience. And yes, have fun doing it. Much needed. DeLOTE! Team IT! The place is like 95% TYT on. Message out. The people who support us on the internet. The people who support us on the internet. internet, that's what gives us strength. That's what allows anyone who was in there who was

undecided to think one side seems to be winning. They seem to have a bigger army. It might be a reason for that. So thank you guys. Corn Pop was a bad dude and he ran a bunch of bad boys. The young Turks, Jank U Granite Kasparian, and Bassam, Yusuf with you guys today. So we've got a lot more news for you. And then at the top of the hour at 8 o'clock Eastern, we're going to do our usual operation joy. And Bassam's going to stay for that. So get ready to spring. joy in the world. Okay. So what's happening in operation, Joe?

I have no idea. Well, you're gonna find out. I mean, you're a doctor, so you'd be good at an operation. Not anymore. I can call 911 if you have something. That's what I was going to bring up. So remember I forgot that I was going to say something or ask you something. I was just going to mention to the audience for anyone who's not familiar with Bossam.

He had like a full blown career as a heart surgeon. 20 years. That's so crazy and cool. I think that's super cool. It tells you how much I hated it. I left it after all of that time. after all of that time. That parental pressure to do a career that you don't actually want to do is real.

Yeah, they all who say like, you know why it's like, why did you be a doctor? So like, well, in the Middle East you're allowed to be one of three things, a doctor, an engineer or disappointment. So I just did the doctor thing. Yeah, well, I was a lawyer for seven months, so I don't know who hated their profession more, me or you. Yeah, for sure. And Lady AF, thank you for gifting five memberships. All right, what's up? All right, well, we've got some more news to get to.

Unfortunately, this one is very depressing, so let's just get to it. Thank you. I love the sign language woman. Oh my God, they're like, you know. So if you guys were wondering what that was, that was San Diego's extremely pro-Israel mayor, Todd Gloria, essentially getting an earful from a constituent following the fatal shooting of three people at a mosque in San Diego on Monday. Three men were fatally shot at the Islamic Center of San Diego on Monday morning specifically,

and we do have some details about the suspects. Two teenage suspects were found dead nearby shortly after with self-inflicted gunshot wounds. So this story is still developing and we should be careful with it. There's rumors flying around, but we gotta stick to the facts, and this is what we know so far. According to San Diego Police Chief Scott Wall, one of the victims was a security guard, by the name of Amin Abdullah, who was pivotal in preventing more bloodshed. He's the father of eight kids. So eight kids were robbed of the father through this horrible, tragic act.

The other two victims were identified as Mansur Khazia and Nader or Nader Wada. Awad. Awed, yeah. Another person was also shot several blocks away from the mosque, but was not hit by any bullets. Okay, so here's what we know about the suspects. The attacker's motives was not immediately clear, motive was not immediately clear. And Wall said that they had made no known threat to the mosque, but he said hate rhetoric was involved, and investigators are treating the shooting as a hate crime.

One of the suspects took a firearm from their parents' home and left a suicide note that contained writings about racial pride, multiple law enforcement officials briefed on the latest, told CNN. Additionally, hate speech was scrawled on one of the weapons that was used in the shooting, the official said. So it's unclear what the specifics of the hate language happened to be. We don't know that yet, but one of the suspects has been identified as a 17 year old by the name of Kane Clark. And Kane's mother actually warned police about her son hours prior to this shooting taking place. The police received a call this morning about a runaway juvenile from the mother of one of the shooting suspects.

The woman believed that her son was suicidal and said that several of her weapons and her vehicle were missing. She said that her son left with a companion and that they were both dressed in camouflaged clothing. So this led investigators to believe that the teens may be a threat to others and according to Wall triggered a larger threat assessment picture, whatever that means. Obviously it wasn't enough to prevent this shooting from taking place. Wall made it clear that there was no specific threat, especially no specific threat to the Islamic Center.

It was just general hate kind of speech that I think covered a wide gamut. Again, we are still actively investigating this as we speak, but it was more generalized. Meaning, I think he's trying to communicate there that it wasn't necessarily directed hate toward Muslims in terms of the language used. Yeah, I don't know why they're saying that. So I read that they did talk about Muslims. Here's another clue that it was about Muslims. They went to an Islamic center and shot three Muslims and killed them, right? And so I think what they're trying to say is it wasn't specific to that particular Islamic

center. Like we hate Muslims, but it wasn't like, oh, okay, this center at such and such address. So I don't know why they're going out of their way to say, yes, it's definitely a hate crime, But generalize, generalize, generalize. Let me ask you something. So if a mother called and said, my son appears violent and suicidal, he has taken my weapons and my vehicle

and said that he's potentially going to cause, damn it, has hatred in his heart for Jews or Jewish people, what do you think would happen in San Diego? They would lock down every single synagogue, every single temple, as they should. That's what should happen. So that's the part where I'm not sure about. As you said in the beginning, fog of war kind of situation always happens with shootings

here in America as well. So did they know, did the mom say that it was about Muslims at that time? Because they only had a couple hours between the mom reporting it and the shooting. So they just might not have had enough time and they might not have known the Muslims were the target. Yes, if they knew Muslims were the target and they didn't warn people, then that's a problem, right? If it was longer than a couple hours, then that's a problem. But like, I'm not trying to beat up on the authorities too much here.

We just, we don't have enough facts. That's fair, that's fair. But what about like after the dust settles, the reporting is like teenagers, mentally disturbed. This is the headlines. I know. And when somebody got a car and drove into a synagogue, which is horrible, immediately the headlines were like a Hezbollah operative, drove into it without even getting any news. And this is the double standard of reporting that just creates, there's no fog of war here.

That's a good point. I mean, right here, I mean, the thing that is, front loaded about the suspects is suicidal mental health issues, whatever. And look, I don't I don't care what the motive is. They killed three innocent people at an Islamic center in San Diego. And at the end of the day, the political violence, especially as it pertains to this issue, is a huge problem. You know, the way that, honestly, the way Muslims are talked about, the way Arabs are

dehumanized through the cover our media provides to Israel as they indiscriminately slaughter Arabs and Muslims in the Middle East, I mean, that has a trickle down effect. That actually does have a trickle down effect, you know. And I think we also need, I've been seeing this, a lot of content creator has been talking, and I think I'm starting to agree with them. We need to stop using the word Islamophobia. Islamophobia is a very reductive word because phobia excuses the perpetrators. Araknophobia, oh my God, I'm scared of spiders.

I'm scared of heights, I'm scared from, I'm scared from closed spaces. No, these people are not afraid. They are criminals. They are anti-Muslim, like you are being anti-Semitic. So I think the whole idea, even the word Islamophobia is a way to soften what these people do. Well, let me read you something that Laura Lumer posted. Mary Lumer, okay. Immediately after this tragic shooting happened.

She wrote, the mosque was supposedly shot up today. Just remember the people who attend this mosque want us all to be killed, she said. We will be told they are such amazing people. Eight kids were robbed of their father because of the shooting. Anyway, I'm not advocating for violence. I condemn violence. I'm showing you how evil this mosque is and always has been. So what does Laura Lumer think she's doing when she's telling people that the parishioners or the people at this mosque want to

to kill everyone in the country. What do you think you're accomplishing by doing that? That incites violence. And by the way, that was her statement in a quote post where she quoted, stop antisemitism. Dot com. Yeah, yeah. And here's how they reacted to the shooting. So we are horrified to see a Lalia, a Lali, wife.

Lalia Al-Ali. Okay, you can take over the names. Okay, wife of Iman, go ahead. Lhali al-Ali, I think. No, Taha Hassani. Yes, of the Islamic Center of San Diego, posts this horrific image to her Facebook profile. The graphic shows a Jewish star murdering babies with

the devil is killing at the bottom. I mean, where's the lie though? Yeah. Okay, so Alali is also the local leader of the Palestinian youth movement, an entity tied to the anti-Israel protests occurring all over the US these past few weeks. So they deserve it. That's exactly what they're trying to say. Exactly.

So I actually, look, I'm not, I don't have time to like engage in like reporting posts on social media, I'm busy. But to me what Laura Lumer posted incited violence and for the first time ever I felt the need to report something. I reported it and I got a response back from X. I want you guys to read what they sent me. Thanks for reporting Laura Lumer, our support team has determined that a violation of our rules did not take place, specifically violating our rules against violence.

So that wasn't violent speech inciting violence toward Muslims by defaming them as individuals who want to kill all of us Americans. That's apparently not inciting violence. That's not violent speech. I think she had another tweet. He said like, yes, I'm horrified by what happened, but the solution for this is to send all of these people back to their Islamic countries so they can pray in their own mosques for in peace instead of, it's just like, this is their solution.

I mean, this is, I think at a certain point, they're trolling us, like some of them, someone like Larry Lumer or someone like Mike Rappaport. They're just like, they're like, they're like just like it. We are ugly and we are horrible and we are gonna get away with it. Again, spitting in our faces. Yeah, so I think we moved on to the humiliation portion of our programming, right? With the Israeli first crowned, Israel first. So yeah, I see them saying all the time now like, oh, you guys are buying this seat in

Kentucky, $16 million. As soon, and they go, yeah, cry harder. Meaning like yeah, we are buying your Congress and there's nothing you can do about it. So now we're rubbing it in. I know, but they're not helping their cause. They're not helping their cause. They don't care. They don't care because they have the power and the money.

But then don't cry when people don't like you guys. Don't cry about it. Are you kidding me? That's their number one tactic. Okay, but it's not working because you guys are unlikable. I think it's working. I think the way that they do it, I always give this edit example. Remember like all of these, I'm sorry it's unrelated,

but like remember all these videos that the Israeli soldiers like film themselves doing all horrible things. No army, no discipline army in the world will let their soldiers do this unless it is encouraged and it's allowed. And they do that. And I once said with a professor in Britain, he said, they do that so people would purposely hate Jewish people. See, anti-Semitic. It's perpetual. They do that.

So you actually hate them. And then when you do and when you voice it, anti-Semitic. And they can use actual anti-Semites to serve their own propaganda purposes, right? That's why they're not puritanical. That's why they hate it. hate us because we're not anti-Semitic. So they're like, why don't you be anti-Semitic? So we can cancel you.

Yeah, because they go in, it's like, oh, stop saying Zionists, stop saying Israel. Just to say Jews, and then they push you, they push you, they push you until finally someone will step, okay, it's Jews as an anti-Semitic. Yeah, no, no, no. No, I don't play that game. Yeah, and we're not, we're not as hateful as they are. They're disgusting hateful people who despise Muslims. And so now let me get into it on a bunch of things you mentioned.

So you report her on X. goes, no, hating Muslims is perfectly fine. If you took the same exact words as Laura Lumer and you transferred out Muslim and put in Jew, I guarantee you X would cancel your account forever, forever, okay? Because they would say, that is anti-Samanagh, right? So she also said in response, and imagine if you said that not just about Jewish people, but after Jewish people were just murdered in a synagogue, right? Another post she had after the shooting, she said, so now I'm going to make sure the entire world

is anti-Islam, I hate Islam, and I always will. So if someone wrote, I'm going to make sure the entire world is anti-Jews, I hate Judaism, and I always will, no one would ever talk to them. Instead, what has happened? First of all, New York Post, doubling down on what Laura Lumer said, talking about how, oh, that mosque's probably a terrorist in it, or terrorist supporters. because Rupert Murdoch is actually the biggest racist of my lifetime. He's a disgusting bigot who has spread anti-Muslim bigotry all across the world. All of his publications do it. And they treat him like he's a legitimate, decent person in society.

He's a Hitlerian figure who has driven so much violence and war and hatred in the world. Okay. And so then on top of that, New York Times, they just did a piece on Laura Lumer last week. They did not mention a single anti-Muslim thing she's ever said. They made her seem like a perfectly innocent, wonderful person raising money for her cause. It was almost like a giant ad in the form of a New York Times article for her cause. Her cause was to raise money to attack Muslims. And so New York Times is like, bravo, bravo!

We'd attack them was. It's a human, hermit, you shut up, okay? You disgusting pigs who work at the New York Times. Now you say, well, you're not allowed to say to them about me. Yes, what would you say about me? So Laura Lumer is not anti-Muslim, according to the New York Times. But when they wrote a piece about me when I was running for Congress, they called me anti-Muslim.

What? They called you anti-Muslims. He called me anti-Muslims. What did you do to get to deserves? Because, you know why? Because they took an out-of-context joke about both fundamentalist Muslims and Orthodox Jews. It was just a joke and it's clear and everybody laughs and they're like good enough, we're smearing him, right?

So let's say he's anti-Muslim. Don't mention that he grew up Muslim or his family's Muslim and then we'll call him an anti-Semite and then we'll call him this and we'll call him that. So because if you're an outsider and you do not agree with the powerful, the New York Times will try to destroy you. But if you're a sick, disgusting bigot who's in favor of Israel, the New York Times will celebrate you. If you're Hassan Piper and you said something slightly off, the entire national,

media will talk about you for months and months. Oh, Hassan Piker, Hassan Piker, disgusting anti-Semite, and then they'll make up stuff for it. Laura Lumer says, I hate all Muslims, and I like when they're murdered. Stop antisemitism.com. When Muslims are murdered, start talking about smearing them. Oh, they had it coming. Look at these Muslims. They're terrible, right?

And New York Times said, bravo, bravo! And Jake Tappen was like, oh, oh, look at the anti-Semites. Stop anti-semitism.com. Oh my God, everyone in the world is an anti-Semite. Oh, Muslims are killed. Who cares? Who cares? Laura Luma, Bravo.

Right, New York Times? Right, New York Post? There's absolutely no question about it. You can go and look at that article, that filthy crap that you wrote about Laura Luma, Whitewash, helping her fundraise against us, against Muslim Americans, and then you pretend your objective.

Hold on, not just Muslim Americans, helping her fundraise against Americans, against Americans who are critical of Israel's slaughter of women, children and innocent civilians in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, Syria. I mean, it just, the list goes on and on. You have to stop being surprised by this, okay? We have to stop pretending as if this is shocking. It's not, the only thing that has been shocking to me about the New York Times lately is

that they ran the Nick Christoph, Israelis raping Palestinian story. Yeah, but this is what they do. They throw you a little bit. Yeah, a little release valve. They do like a breadcrumbs to say, oh, we're still objective. We're still objective. And then I was like, oh, we were talking about. And then then they flood you with the other side of news.

It's just, oh, we said that. We put it in line number 255. In the opinion, you know, columns, yeah. No, so that one is actually a little bit nuanced because their opinion section is different than their news section. Their opinion section, check the facts over and over and over it. was sure and they published it. So credit to their opinion section. Now this is the what's got me set me off yesterday.

So Dylan Byers at Puck reported that the news section of the New York Times was livid at Christoph and the opinion section. And they said, this is so embarrassing to us. Why is it embarrassing? Was it wrong? No, they acknowledge it is factually correct. And the New York Times quadruple checked it because if it's about Israel, you have to check it 200 times.

If you want to smear Muslims, do it, who cares? No one cares at all. They'll give you a race to do it, right? But they double check, quadruple checked it over and over again. And the news section of the New York Times was like, how dare they? They wrote something against our beloved Israel. The opinion section should be canceled. Because there are no political reporters.

There are no international reporters at the New York Times. They're all work for Israel. They're propagandists. They're ex-IDFs, ex-Mosset, X, Chinbite, X, like, unit, 1,000. They all, they are Israelis with their children in the idea. Have they considered that maybe they're the embarrassing ones? Of course. And why, the word embarrassing was super interesting because they should be embarrassed.

The news section is supposed to report the news. But instead of reporting the news, they bury the news on behalf of Israel. So when someone at their paper actually does real news, they're like, oh, that is embarrassing. Right? And so guys, look, I'll tell you a story that I've never said before. It's from behind the scene, so I won't say which major publication. But I talked to somebody from a major publication that said one of the issues is, even if you go to ask the reporters, senior reporters at the paper magazine,

to report on what's actually happening in Israel, they say no, and they because they've been supporting Israel their whole career, and they flat out refuse to write it. So I say, well, why don't you fire them? The union. The union comes in and goes, they have seniority. If you're going to fire anyone in that particular case, you have to fire the junior reporters who are getting it right. But you have to protect the senior reporters who are lying on purpose and literally tell you, I will not write facts in this paper if it criticizes Israel.

So that literally happens in newsrooms in America. And then, and to your guy's point in the beginning, think about it. If it was two Muslim kids who went and shot a synagogue or church, right, would anyone call them anything but a terrorist? Of course they'd call them terrorists. Two Muslim guys walk into a church and shoot people. Literally everyone on cable news would call them a terrorist. Not one person has called these guys terrorists. Why?

Because they shot up Muslims, that doesn't count. Do you remember that story from Texas, the kid that was drowned, like almost drowned by a Jewish woman. His name is Elizabeth Wolfe. And she tried to drown them and thank God they caught her. And they have never said anything about this woman's religion. They never said anything about this being a hate crime. They reported it once and gone. I just don't understand.

No, we understand. The human capacity to rob another person of their life. I don't understand it. I really don't. We've seen it more than 100,000 times in Gaza. They don't care. I know, I know. Super last thing real quick, I want you said about Islamophobia.

I almost never use that word the entire time. Good for you. And so your point on it is great, but also it feels weak. Yeah. Like it's not like it makes it feel like it's almost justified to be afraid of Muslims. Like arachnophobia. Yeah, yeah.

Agoraphobia. No, no, I don't think they're afraid of Muslims. I think they hate Muslims. Yeah. And they want to spread hatred towards Muslims so Israel can get everything they want. So when Israel murders their Muslim neighbors and steals their land, the American media gets to say, well, I mean, they're a bunch of terrorist Muslims. It's no, that's hatred.

That is hatred that mainstream media, almost every cable news anchor in America, is deeply racist and bigoted, they despise Muslims and they push hatred out 24-7, and they're obviously hypocrites. And so I agree with you guys, though. We just shouldn't, from now on guys, assume that if they work in mainstream media, they're a liar, and they're lying on behalf of Israel. If they prove otherwise, great, right? But so far, I haven't seen it, 98% of mainstream media is not doing the news, they are doing

propaganda super weirdly for a different country. We're gonna take our final break. When we come back, we're going to talk about how the president has diverted billions in taxpayer money to pay himself and his friends. Oh, I'm so surprised. They don't know what it's like to be me. My life is ruined. Let's go to Super Chat.

Kobe Savona writes in, tell me if you've heard this one before, a Turk and Armenian and an Egyptian walk into a new studio and save the world. I hadn't heard that one before. Yeah, I hope so too. But look, that's just what we love about America. A Turk and Armenian and Egyptian working to end a genocide. My best friend growing up was Egyptian and just they called her cookie. I called her cookie, but her name was Mary and Egyptians are the best.

Yeah, my best friend, and his name is George McAlean. He was my friend for almost 10, 12th. We went to play basketball together, working in the gym together. If you're listening, love you by-alai, yeah, he's, I think he's now is, he's not in Egypt anymore, I think he's in Dubai, but like he's one of my friends. Is he's an Armenian, yeah, yeah, he's Armenian, yeah, he's, I mean. Jenna, not, not Coptic, like, Armenian, like, that's the Catholic, yeah. Jenna writes, and I love your coverage and agree with you on 99.9% of these ideas,

but draw the line at including anti-Semites like Dan Balserian and Nick Fuentes, because I think they hurt the movement by introducing suspicion of actual anti-Semitism. So no problem. Nick Fuentes hasn't been on, Dan hasn't been on. And we're just telling you if your only choices are Dan Bill Zarian and Randy Fine, that was not close. Not because Dan's a great guy, but because, and by the way, to be fair to Dan Balsarian, at least he's fighting super hard against the genocide.

And so if you say he's worse on other issues, I hear you. On the genocide, Dan Bilsarian is better than every single cable news anchor. And on impact, about Israeli control of the media, he's been actually like very, very honest and straightforward, I have you. Yeah. And definitely better than Randy Fogg. Yeah, all right, we'll be back. He says he is a patron to the United States.

All right, back on TYT, Jank, Bassam and Anna with you guys. All right, Anna, what's next? Well, we gotta talk about Trump looting American taxpayer money from the Treasury, again, again, again. But this one's even more brazen if you can believe it. Let's get to the details. In a suit involving President Donald Trump in his own personal private capacity against the IRS, a settlement has been reached.

In fact, the settlement is between Trump and the Department of Justice, where Trump will be allowed to divert $1.8 billion in taxpayer money toward a slush fund meant to be awarded to individuals who are victims of lawfare under the Biden administration. So the fund called the anti-weaponization fund will be used to pay out money to those deemed victims of unfair prosecution and lawfare by the Biden administration. So on Monday, Trump reached the settlement again with the DOJ. He was suing the IRS for what I think is one of the maybe only legitimate reasons to sue the IRS in your personal capacity.

So his tax releases, his tax filings were released, leaked, right? And so that's not okay. Nobody would like it if the IRS leaked their tax returns. So he sued for that. And so the settlement also folds in two other pending claims that Trump has made against the federal government, including in regard to the Mar-a-Lago claim, where he obviously was in possession of highly classified documents that he wasn't supposed to be in possession of, and the Russia collusion hoax.

Now that the Justice Department has reached the agreement with Trump, the administration will provide the Treasury Department with information. needed to make the payment to the new settlement fund within 60 days. No involvement from Congress, no approvals from Congress whatsoever. This is the federal government, Trump suing the federal government, his federal government, and them reaching a deal that he finds very favorable to himself and to his supporters. So I'll get to those details in just a minute. Todd Blanche, who's the acting attorney general, will assemble a team of

members to run this fund, and Trump can boot any of these people if he wants to, and victims can submit claims up until December 1st of 2028. But there are so many red flags, aside from the fact that it's almost $2 billion in US taxpayer money that's going to be diverted to a slush fund for Trump and his cronies. So there's absolutely no judicial review involved in determining who the money goes to. Yeah. That sounds like a pretty big deal. decisions cannot be appealed, any claimants and the amount of money they're awarded will remain

anonymous. So no transparency, this is our money, this is American taxpayer money, no transparency, no judicial review process. The settlement reads on a quarterly basis or otherwise directed by the Attorney General, the anti-weaponization fund shall provide to the Attorney General a confidential written report that includes the name and address of each claimant who has received any relief, And if so, nature of such relief. Anyone who claims that they've been targeted by the government through the use of lawfare or weaponization can apply for this money. And if you're wondering, like, what does lawfare, victim of lawfare mean? Here's how it's kind of defined in this agreement.

Claims representative of the sustained use of the levers of government power by Democrat elected officials, political and career federal employees, contractors, and agents in order to target individuals, groups and entities, for improper and unlawful, political, personal, and or ideological reasons. So some examples include January 6th defendants, which we should talk about in greater detail, because while some people might have been unfairly treated, fact of the matter is plenty of people were not unfairly treated. Many of them were pardoned by Trump and then went on to carry out some of the most vicious crimes you can imagine, including murder in some cases, child sex abuse in other cases, but okay, right wing activists, anyone in the government

who considers themselves targeted unfairly by the Democrats, there is a stipulation for those who apply and receive money from the fund. A claimant who does receive that money must forego all other relief, including judicial relief, whether previously asserted or not. So in other words, if you take the money, you are not able to file a suit for the same purposes again in the future. And if you've been lowballed by the amount that you've been awarded by the slush fund, too bad, you know, it is what it is, you took the money. And even if you could have gotten more by filing a proper lawsuit against like the federal government, it doesn't matter. But how would they know because it's anonymous? Then you could just file a suit anyway,

because nobody knows who's getting the money. So look, there are four layers of outrage here in what I think is actually one of the worst cases of corruption of my lifetime. There's an update, can I just give you the update? I'm sorry, Jank, but this just developed and it's important to know. So the House Rules Committee shot down an amendment that would have prevented President Donald Trump's administration from doling out taxpayer money to people, criminally charged in connection with the capital riot. So the money will absolutely apply to January Sixers.

So go ahead. Yeah, so first of all, it's our money, right? So if Trump wants to help his friends who broke in and tried to steal an election and didn't it through violence, that's his business, not our business. But again, they're gonna literally take it out of your pocket and give it the guys who attack cops. That's just, so that's point one. Point two is the number is outrageous.

Anna's right, if somebody leaks your IRS records, IRS responsible. Yeah, I get it, you want compensation? $100,000 is a lot of money. I take the $100,000. Yes, $375,000 would be an amazing, please leak my records if I'm gonna get $375,000, right? 1.7, 7,000, billion? Not million? Billion?

No, that's a robbery. But the two that are the most egregious are, you're not allowed to know who's getting the money. It's anonymous, and you're not allowed to know how much. So he could just literally give it to his family. He could give it to his allies, his staff, and sorry, you can never find out. And hey, January 6th, Rando, you got 12 bucks. Eric Trump's best friend got $211 million, which he then said.

spent on the Trump family, too bad you'll never find out, right? And they robbed us to give it to them. But I think maybe the worst part of it is, this is him saying, if you do violence for me, not only will I make sure that you never suffer any consequences for your criminal actions, I'll break you out of jail like I'm a villain in Batman. And then on top of that, I'll pay you for the violence you did to try to end our democracy and steal the election for me. That is financing your own brown shirts. I mean, Trump made a deal with himself essentially, right? This is his federal government.

This is his administration. So he sued his administration and his administration came back and gave him what he wanted. And the outcome of- It is outrageous. And the outcome of the suit is so controversial that the Treasury Department's top lawyer, who was appointed by Trump, has quit over it. So there isn't much reporting on it. He didn't release a statement, but-

I mean, this is the same family. and president who took $59 million for people to give them phones and they never said it's like, you know what, you give us $59 million? We're not going to give you that phone. It's like, it's like, just won't give it to you. Which honestly, I have to say I have to blame the people as like, would you trust, actually like, why would you buy a Trump phone? That's right.

So first of all, half of this on you. But it's like, yeah, I'm going to take your money. I don't have to give it back. I don't have to give you a product. And they actually said in a statement, it is not, it's giving us the money doesn't mean that you're going to get your phone and doesn't mean that you're going to get your money back. What is this?

I just. Well, I don't recognize the country I live in right now. It's, this is insane. It was always there, but like, we were. It's just more brazen now. The thing about Trump is, he doesn't, he lacks any and all sophistication when it comes to concealing bad acts. He just likes to do it out in the front, like out in the open. Once he asked like twice, like, do you think about the suffering of economic suffering of America?

He's like, no, I've just said everything about that. This is my mind. Like, there's a gross mind. Now, I don't care. Yeah, because that's who he is. And so what do they say? Hannity and Fox News while Obama was president. Obama phones, Obama phones.

A thing that was largely made up. Those are better times. Now Trump actually does Trump phones. It's not made up. And then he took action money. Yeah, and he- He literally robs his own supporters of $59 million. They're like, no, that's fine.

Okay, so look, back to January 6th. If you attended this speech but did not go to the Capitol, no, you just attended this speech. It's not that you're totally fine. And you were arrested. If you were arrested, I don't think anybody at this speech was arrested, but if you were, then that's definitely wrong. Well, there were people who, you know, after the break-in in the Capitol happened, there were

people who, you know, wandered into the Capitol building, they didn't cause any havoc, and then they walked out. But since they were captured on footage, later they were arrested too. And honestly, like, you have to be able to differentiate between the people who like broke into the Capitol, who were violent, who actually assaulted Capitol police officers and things. You gotta separate them from people who attended the speech and then later walked into the Capitol and were just filmed there. By the way, why wasn't Nick Fuentes arrested?

Nick Fuentes is on camera on a bullhorn ordering people like what to do and where to go. And it's like how is that guy not arrested? It's weird. No, that's definitely weird. So look, that's exactly where I'm going. So you attended the speech didn't even go to the Capitol. Of course she didn't do anything wrong there. Everybody can go to a speech.

But you go in and you attack the cops or you broke into the Capitol, don't tell me you're a victim. That doesn't make any sense. Now let's do the thing that let's, I mean, I don't know if we overdo it, but we got to do it just to like shake you out of the hypocrisy, and not you, the viewer, but the government to Washington and all that. So if it was a riot by black folks and they broke into the Capitol and they were chanting hang Mike Pence, hang Mike Pence, and then do you think that Trump?

and the Republicans would feel as generous and charitable. You know what, let's pardon them all. And you know what, let's give them money on top for breaking into the capital and threatening to murder the people inside. Now take out black folks, put in Muslims. Thousands of Muslims gather, they raid the capital, they threatened to hang the legislators. I mean, we'd be talking about capital offenses, right? We'd be talking about prison for life.

We all of them would be terrorists. Mas de mortipur deportation. And if you came in afterwards and wandered around, but you weren't part of the original break in? No, you'd be a day to Guantanamo Bay. So you can say they wouldn't, but you know they would. Even if you're a Republican, you know that, right? So we're not looking to target anyone that didn't do it.

But if you actually did do the violence, no, you shouldn't have, that's not a thing you should be paid for. I feel like I've been pretty consistent when it comes to issues of crime. If someone has committed a crime, I would like consequences. In all of the cases where they've been convicted, They've been found guilty of doing the thing, right? And that applies to local laws being broken, right? We've been talking about the kind of libertarian approach that some progressives have taken when it comes to issues of crime.

I don't think that's right. I also don't think it's right when there's like a slush fund using taxpayer money in an incredibly non-transparent way to reward people who broke the law. You know, so, all right. There should be consequences for one other group that's broken into the capital. I agree, I agree. That's the Israeli lobby. Well, let's talk a little bit about the Israeli lobby, shall we? Before you go there, Anna, I gotta do breaking news.

So results are coming in on the Massey Galrine race in Kentucky, obviously very relevant. And oh boy, 48.6% reporting now, so that's a big number. And Galrine leads 54.4 to 45.6. So he's got about a nine point lead there with about half the votes in. So that means Massey has to win the second half by about 18 points to catch him, which makes it pretty unlikely. It depends on where the votes are coming from. They come in at different times, then there could be more pro-Massie districts or areas

within that district, et cetera. But that is not good news. It looks like Israel is about to buy the entire Republican Party. I mean, they've already done that. Well, there was a tiny rebellion by Massey and this will have quashed the rebellion. And he's actually one of the very few people who's very adamant about the Epstein fines. Yes, that's right. That's why he's a target by Trump and his cronies.

And by Israel because obviously Israel did it. It's a $20 million message. Yeah. To cover up the Epstein files, cover up all their crimes in America, cover up their corruption. And American media will immediately help them. If Gal Ryan wins today, I guarantee you everyone in mainstream media, In hindsight, we'll say, oh, it had nothing to do with Israel. No, no, no, no.

It was because he defied Trump and it was the border bill and it was this and it was that. And anyone who says it was about Israel's an anti-Semitism. Anti-Semitism. Yeah, all right. All right, well, we've got some updates on, you know, the campaign to defeat Massey, so let's discuss it. It turns out the co-founder behind the main super PAC attempting to unseat Congressman Thomas Massey from his house seat in Kentucky. has some pretty deep ties to a foreign country. I'm sure you'll be shocked to find out what that foreign country is.

Now it turns out that Tony Fabricio, the co-founder of Maga, Kentucky, or MAGA K-Y, also works as an Israeli campaign advisor. Oh my God, I thought for sure it was Iceland. No, it's Israel? You know, Iceland's undue influence over the U.S. government is a problem, but Israel tends to be a little more influential. How dare you? Okay, just a total coincidence that every single time it's Israel.

That's very interesting. Guys, look, regardless of what you think about Israel, and I mean, if you watch this show, I can't imagine you're a fan. This is a foreign country, like foreign operatives meddling in our elections. Like, where are the Democrats, by the way? Like when it came to Trump and the whole Russia gate thing, okay, which I'm embarrassed that I fell for, They used that for political purposes. It didn't matter if it was true.

They used it for political purposes. Here you have an actual situation in which a foreign operative is trying to unseat an American from his congressional seat because he wanted transparency on the Epstein files. You know who else? Because they're all involved. They're all bowed by Israel. They're all the same team. You're right, you're right. This whole thing about like right, right versus left, it's fake.

Smoke screen. Because basically, they fund. both sides and then they cut each other's throat for like abortion, guns, healthcare, borders, but when it comes to Israel, everybody's competing to be Israel's bitches. So that's why they're not talking because they know that the sledgehammer is waiting for them to get on their heads. They are basically, they want to see who can sit on the lap of daddy. It's so embarrassing and like I, God, once you realize you're not living in a sovereign

country, I don't know, I don't know how it doesn't drive you crazy. He drives me crazy. Welcome to my world. It drives me crazy. Now we're all Palestinians. So the most influential super pack behind this Zionist attack on Thomas Massey is the MAGA KY super pack started by former. I know. KY super pack.

No, I know. I know. They're being nice. At least they're using Joe. Yeah, well. Okay. Because normally they're raw dog, but okay, thank you. Our politicians, that's right.

So MAGA KY Super PAC started by former Trump campaign manager. Here's another one, Chris La Savita and pollster Tony Fabricio, which Politico noted is bankrolled by $1 million from hedge fund manager, Paul Singer, and $750,000 from a super PAC linked to casino magnate Miriam Adelson. Our favorite. Another group, the Christians United for Israel Action Fund, has spent six figures on billboards targeting Massey. Adelson, by the way, as you guys know, is one of Trump's major donors, second largest donor.

Singer has a long history of backing all sorts of think tanks advocating for war against Iran, on behalf of Israel, of course. But one of the most interesting characters in this entire race is the MAGA KY co-founder and pro-Trump holster Tony Fabricio. So he has served as a political strategist to Israeli politicians. Back in 2020, Benjamin Netanyahu, in fact, enlisted Trump in his efforts to win re-election. Trump delivered, by the way, at the time Netanyahu was facing corruption charges and cratering approval ratings in Israel.

So as reported by NDTV, that's when Trump's inner circle landed in Jerusalem. Get a load of this. Susie Wiles, Corey Lewandowski, and Tony Fabricio, Trump's campaign A-Team set up shop at the Leonardo Plaza Hotel Netanyahu's staff had asked for help and Trump delivered. So all these people who helped Trump get elected were basically working with Israelis on Israeli political campaigns. At the same time, they helped to get Netanyahu reelected in 2020. I mean, look, Susie Wiles is the chief of staff for the president of the United States. And she literally worked for Netanyahu. Yes, yes. And then Netanyahu is in,

invited to the White House by Susie Wiles nonstop. Nanjahou convinces Trump through however he convinced him, either through persuasion of one sort or another, to go to war with Iran. Paul Singer has funded almost every group that has driven us into wars on behalf of Israel. He funded a group after the project for a new American century. That was the new neocon group. He funds American Enterprise Institute, another neocon think tank. And so you see how the collusion works.

So you have these huge pro-Israel funders who buy half of Washington, if not three quarters, if not 100% on Washington. They fund all these think things, then they fund the politicians. So right now, a singer and Aedelson are also giving to Galrine, the guy who's running against Tom Massey, and the pro-Israel guys have given him $16 million. So they're funding the politicians, they're funding their staffers like Susie Wiles and Tony Fabricio. Then they get the media to say, it is not Israel, and if anyone says, they're funding, they

that we're doing these wars for Israel, or that Paul Singer is funding all of this, or that Miriam Edelson has given to both Democrats and Republicans, and her one ask has been serve Israel, and they have served Israel every time she's given them countless of millions of dollars, then the media's job is to lie to you on behalf of Israel and pretend it didn't happen. And pretend, oh, it's just a coincidence. So we happen to follow every single thing that Israel asked for. They asked us to attack seven countries in the project for a new American century. We attacked all seven and yet everyone in media says just a coincidence. Yeah, yeah, no, totally.

I mean, the propagandists for Israel are like, no, no, no, it's not true. It was just a memo, it was just a memo. It was ignored by the government, even though we've attacked all seven countries at this point. It's ridiculous. I'm surprised, you're still surprised. No, I'm not surprised by any of it. But it was like, we see- At this point. We're just like, we- It's just so out in the open, Bossum.

Yeah, I know, I know, and they, and they rob it in your face, and they dare you to do anything about it and and they dare to speak about it. But something does need to happen. We do need to do something about it. I refuse to live in a, I don't want to be governed by Israel. But they're kneecapping us even though we're like one. I remember like remember a couple of years ago when they had this the most at the time, the most expensive Congress seat, it was $16 million.

I think they've surpassed that with Thomas Massey. Yes, who lost like the- Yeah, Jamal Bowman. And they're kneecapping us and it's a message, it's, it's intimidation, it's, it's intimidation, intimidation tactics, it's a mafia. So I'll just go one step further on that, and then I want to tell you why I'm surprised in a second. But if you're a reporter and you saw the Israeli lobby pour in like I think $18 million

against Jamal Bowman, now 16 million against Tom Massey, and I think 14 million against Cory Bush, let alone 4 million against Nina Turner, 4 million against Andy Levin, 4 million against Marie Newman, and all of them because they defined Israel, and then all of a sudden these millions of millions show up and they defeat them by using all that money. And you say it's not connected to Israel, well, you're a goddamn liar. You're not in the news business. You're in the propaganda business. And so just look yourself in the mirror and say, I'm not a reporter.

I'm a sellout piece of crap who does propaganda for Israel. Then I can say, okay, at least you're being honest with yourself. And I get it now and we don't have to be surprised. But don't tell me you're a reporter. If you don't report that the Israeli lobby poured in all that money to eliminate Israel's critics inside Congress so Israel can get all of the money and all of the wars that it wants. That is a stone cold empirical fact, and the job of our media is not to cover the news, it's to bury the news on behalf of their benefactors, which in this case happens to be Israel.

I can't tell if you think the media is a problem. Yeah, no, I'll tell you why. Tell us more. Because, Bassam, you say, like, I sound surprised. You're not wrong. I am surprised. You're appalled. Yeah, it's like how brazen it is.

No, because when I was growing up, I didn't know. I didn't know. I am the victim of mainstream media. They brainwashed me. That's why I'm angrier than you. That's why I'm more surprised than you, right? Because these sons of bitches lied to me my whole life. They like to all of us.

They like to all of us. And then whenever you call out and you show we can prove empirically, did they spend 16 million against Mass or did they not? Was it for Israel or was it not? It is empirical. It is scientific. It is indisputable. And they go, no, you're an anti-Semite. Okay, F you, F you, you're propagandist piece of crap. Okay, so let me just give you a, let's, anytime you want to know the truth,

check in with Israeli media, okay? Yes. Check it in with Israeli media. This screenshot was shared by the wonderful Dave DeKamp from anti-war.com. It's a headline from Heretz in regard to the Massey race. This is the headline. The most consequential Republican primary for Israel is happening in Kentucky. Yeah, all right. So first of all, breaking news in the middle of the segment, the race is called.

Ed Galarine has won. Israel has defeated Tom Massey in Kentucky's fourth district. That's it. This was $16 million in Israeli lobby money. It was because Tom Massey defied Israel in sending money to them, in doing the Iran war for them. and in releasing the Epstein files. He was targeted for destruction by a foreign government. That foreign government won today, and they have eliminated an American from that Congress. And an American, by the way, I disagree with 91% of the time.

That is the number of times he votes with Republicans. I don't agree with any of the Republican bills, okay? But he was an American, and he served this country. I'm happy to debate him on nine out of 10 issues, but he was at least an honest person. But he has been defeated, and all of Washington will celebrate, They will all throw a party because they all work for Israel.

They're betraying you. They're betraying you. They will not tell you that Israel bought that seat. They 100% bought it. Now the next thing that's going to happen is guarantee. All of the Republicans and a great percentage of the Democrats, but for sure, all of the Republicans will now bow their heads to Israel. Because they know that if they defy Israel, they're gonna get 16 million spent against them.

And they're gonna be eliminated like Tom Massey was. So now every Republican will vote to take your money, rob it, literally steal it from you and your family, and hand it over to Israel no matter how much they ask for. They will do any war, they'll send your sons and daughters to die for Israel. And all of American media will lie to you and say, yeah, it was a war for Israel. Yes, Congress was given all this money by the Israeli lobby, but you're an anti-Semite. If you don't go die for Israel, give me your goddamn wallet. If you don't give me your wallet, you don't let me rob you.

you're an anti-Semite. That's what media will say, because they're the enforcement thugs who help Israel in this country. So are you going to report it honestly, media, that Israel just stole our Congress, just bought our Congress? No, you're going to lie on behalf of Israel, right? It's a guarantee, go watch TV. Now, one cable news anchor will tell you that Israel just bought our Congress, that they bribed Ed Gellarine, who'll be nothing but a sock poppet. And again, empirical guys, when they did this with Democrats,

George Latimer, the mutant, votes with Israel 100% of the time. Wesley Bell, who defeated Cory Bush, votes with Israel 100% of the time. Everyone funded by Israel votes with Israel 100% of the time. And the job of the media is to lie to you so you never find out how this country has been betrayed at every level by the government, by our so-called representatives, by our media, the disgusting media that works for our foreign government. And so kiss it goodbye. Congress is gone, they will all kneel to Israel, they will rob you of every time you have

a send it to Israel. And remember, Massey's number one crime, according to Donald Trump, was wanting transparency on the Epstein files. Why did that upset Israel so much? Oh, by the way, that's a great point. First of all, obviously Israel did it. Jeffrey Epstein in every email, every email, every email Jeffrey Epstein is looking to help Israel.

The goddamn liars in our media covered up, pretend it's Russia. They're disgusting liars, all of them, but not just because they didn't want the F. FILEAS files released, yeah, and they wanted wars funded, et cetera. But one more thing, guys. So not only will you now be robbed for God knows how long, and whatever money you give, it's gonna go straight to all the donors, including Israel. But on top of that, that's it, the FD files won't be released. All the Republicans will now, save for the rest of the FD Files are God.

The American media is the real iron dome for Israel. Exactly. They are. A polite way, I've said, I've literally said that on social media, totally agree with you. They're Iron Dome for Israel, political Iron Dome for Israel, but I'll go further. They're also gobles. They cover up a genocide. You go nothing to see.

The Muslims should be murdered. They're a bunch of terrorists. And how dare you criticize beloved Israel? Bow your heads, they tell us. We're not going to bow our heads. You sons of bitches in media, are you going to ever report the truth? No, you're going to lie. You're gonna lie to the people of Kentucky, you're gonna lie to the people of America,

and you're gonna tell them this was a fair election. Israel didn't buy anything. No, Israel bought that seat. Israel has bought our Congress. That is not a conspiracy theory. That is a stone cold fact. Our country is not sovereign. We are occupied by Israel and their goddamn lobby and all their sons of bitches who buy our politicians

and pervert our government. So congratulations America. Now all Palestinians, we are occupied. Just in case, just in case for anything in the future, I'm not with them, I plagued allegiance to the state of Israel. I'd rather die. Just in case, just in case, you know, like I have bills to pay. Yeah, no, I don't care about the bills, I'd rather be out on the streets.

Disgusting. So the loser, pathetic, servile servant of Israel named Ed Galrine will vote with Israel every single time. And by the way, more war is coming. So Donald Trump will attack Iran again because Israel has ordered it. We are not sovereign. We do not control our own country. All that, oh my God, the Russians are going to take our democracy or Trump's going to take it are too late. The Israelis already took our democracy and they urinated on it.

And now they're rubbing it in. And they're going, ha, ha, you can't even control Kentucky. We own you America. And you will give us every goddamn dollar. every ounce of blood so that you go to war because we're not going to use Israeli ground troops. We're going to send American boys and girls to go die for us. We're going to use American ground troops. That's what Israel is going to order and Israel is going to get it. Because they just eliminated another American from Congress. Now all of them will be servants

for Israel. And they will do exactly as they are ordered because they are dogs. And Turkey will be next. They say like Turkey is the new Iran. Well, if they want to. F around and find out. Yeah, every single Turk I go to go, oh, put me in, coach. Yeah, yeah. Put me in coach. Come and find out. Anyways, that's not me.

I'm an American, I don't want my country controlled by Israel. Those disgusting, genocidal, corrupt sons of bitches who purchase everything in America and pretend they're innocent victims. They're not innocent victims. They are genociders, they are terrorists, they are fast, and they have stolen our country, young Turks. Fanda cinema. Do you know your brain rot index?
