You're listening to Young Turks, the online news show.
Make sure to follow and rate our show with not one, not two, not three, not four, but five stars.
You're awesome. Thank you.
Sorry, big time.
I'm so upset.
Oh my God.
Begat!
Turgh, thank you, Granite, Kisperian with you guys.
So, remarkable show ahead.
We're back at full-scale war with Iran.
We'll explain that.
People are leaving the military at senior positions.
That's a problem. We'll explain that. J.D. Vance went and kissed the ass of Israel supporters.
They complained later that he didn't kiss it enthusiastically enough. Of course.
Right, it was only the left cheek and the right cheek, but, you know.
You don't negotiate with terrorists.
Okay, so we'll get into that story in a little bit.
And then Rokana is going to join us on the show. A lot of interesting questions to ask.
the one Democrat who seems to be working in Congress.
So a lot to get to in today's show.
Let's start with the first and most dramatic news.
U.S. forces began striking Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps targets in Iran.
According to U.S. Central Command, these strikes are in response to Iranian attacks on vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.
In addition to that attack earlier this week against U.S. forces in Jordan.
We know the $100 million houses you have around the world, and we're in the United States.
We are going to freeze those.
We will stop this regime's ability to have a nuclear weapon, to have their current highly enriched uranium, to project terrorist power through their proxy networks.
All right, here we go again.
Iran war back at full scale, bombing back and forth.
Iran promises regrettable retaliation.
Trump promises to annihilate them again.
And Besson is talking about choking them to death economically.
So we're in a world of trouble here.
Literally a world full of trouble.
And of course, all of this brought to you by Israel, literally no one else on the planet
wants this war.
And it tells us the whole story.
We're just trying to save the Iranian people from the evil regime by starving them to
death and bombing them.
Aren't we so great?
Yeah, they seem to really appreciate us.
The people have thrown roses at our feet and they say, welcome,
Americans and Israelis, we would love to be ruled by you.
They live in on a different planet.
As Anna's about to tell you, I mean, like, Besson thinks we already won the war.
I mean, they're deranged, they're detached from reality.
And it is going, it is beginning today to have devastating consequences.
I'm worried we just got past the tipping point, let alone what's going to happen next.
But let's tell you what happened today.
But let me fill you in on the details of what occurred today, because there were widespread strikes on.
Iran by the United States today and the escalation follows U.S. strikes against
La Rock Island over the weekend, which Iran of course responded to by launching
some strikes against two U.S. bases in Jordan. And then Trump said that he will
retaliate against Iran's retaliation and that's what's taking place today. So he's
doing this despite the fact that we are ill prepared to engage kinetically in this war.
Nothing has changed in regard to the depletion of our Tomahawk missiles, our missile
interceptors, the Patriot missiles.
So we're dealing with a big issue here where Trump seems to have a difficult time understanding.
Reigniting kinetic warfare against Iran is not the way to go when the military is in disarray,
when we don't have the munitions to carry out the war, yet we're still doing what we're doing.
So according to Iranian media, the US strikes today targeted Keshem Island on the northern
side of the Strait of Hormuz, the port city of Banda Abbas, and then also a port on the southern
coast. So clearly the United States is striking areas along the Strait of Hormuz.
So these strikes are really not about ensuring that Iran has no nuclear weapons. These
strikes are really about trying to, I guess, gain control of the straight, even though every
military expert has said over and over again, that there is no military option of taking control
of the straight away from the Iranians.
Hilariously, US President Donald Trump posted on his social media channel that if Iran
retaliated for the attack, quote, they will be hit again at a much harder and higher level.
he has failed to explain how more bombings are going to change the situation on the ground.
He also said he doesn't want to engage in a full scale war with Iran and is instead pursuing
what he refers to as limited and contained confrontation.
Okay, I should also note the Trump administration's unwillingness to refer to an obvious
war that we have launched against Iran.
Instead he's calling it a special military operation, whatever he can name.
it to prevent referring to it as a war.
It's screwing over our soldiers who are entitled to certain benefits during wartime.
So our soldiers are getting screwed over in multiple ways.
Not only are they being neglected on these carriers, they're also being forced to remain
on the carriers with no end in sight, no end date for an obvious war, and they're being
denied certain benefits that they would get if Trump had declared a war against you.
Iran. Just wanted to make that side point. Now, despite all of the BS, and quite frankly,
it is BS that we are hearing from our own government about how violent the Iranians are, Iranian
President Masoud Peseskian said today that, you know, that he still believes in peace.
He said, or let's put that back up, please, had said earlier on Tuesday at a regional summit
that Tehran would reciprocate immediately if Washington honored its commitments under a June
Memorandum of Understanding that was intended to halt the conflict. But let's keep it real.
The Trump administration was never serious about the MOU. They never really intended to implement
the MOU or use it to work toward a longstanding peace deal. And the Iranians know that.
They know that. Foreign Ministry spokesman Ishmael Bagi told a press conference in
Iran that Washington was addicted to making excessive demands and has mistaken negotiations
for dictating terms.
Now during a meeting with G20 finance leaders in North Carolina, Treasury Secretary Scott
Besson said that the White House is likely to announce bank sanctions against Iran because
you know, sanctioning them for literally decades has accomplished nothing, so why don't we just
slap them with more sanctions.
And he says he wants to economically asphyxiate Iran.
Here's more of what he had to say.
It could be anyone who does business with the IRGC.
We are tracking down the IRGC's assets.
And I will say it on worldwide TV, just so you know, we know where in the British Virgin
Islands your accounts are at these trust companies.
We know the $100 million houses you have around the world.
And we are going to freeze those.
We are going to, our partners, we are going to close all of that down.
So we are going to go after the regime's illegitimate assets that they have stolen from the Iranian people.
We will stop this regime's ability to have a nuclear weapon, to have their current highly enriched uranium,
to project terrorist power through their proxy networks, and to terrorize the Gulf.
So after 47 years, it is over.
And we are telling people either you are with us or against us.
And everyone says to me, well, what about China?
I said, we have more in common with the Chinese on Iran than we disagree with on.
I don't think so.
China is not at all threatened by some of the comments from the Treasury Secretary in regard to the secondary sanctions.
They don't believe the secondary sanctions are going to harm them if they continue doing,
you know, trade with Iran, including purchasing their oil.
And I should note, in regard to the U.S. strikes that were carried out against Iran today,
DropS. news is reporting, and I quote from their ex-feed, a U.S. attack on a wedding ceremony.
Isn't it so great to be just like the vicious genocidal Israelis?
A U.S. strike or attack on a wedding ceremony in Syrac in southern New York.
Iran's, in southern Iran killed four people, including a child.
The provincial Red Crescent's managing director said the province's deputy governor for security
earlier reported that 50 people were wounded. So these are civilians, you know, the very
civilians that our government pretends to care so much about in Iran. Some of the wounded
were treated and discharged while others were transferred to the Minab Hospital for specialized
treatment. So we're bombing wedding ceremonies like the Israelis do.
How was that gonna accomplish anything?
I don't know, Jake, what do you think?
So Besson's remarks were troubling Trump's reactions have been troubling.
These are massive understatements.
So Besson went on to brag and brag about how the war's already over and how we cut the head
off the snake, but sometimes the body still twitches.
But we buried the head of the snake and the body will stop twitching in 24 hours.
And how the Iranians are completely defeated in two years from now the Strait of
Hormuz, he said, would be an irrelevant body of water.
He's probably referring to Israel's plan to build a pipeline to get around the Strait of Hormuz.
So here we are again, servicing Israel's economic needs and desires.
And by the way, part of the reason why we started this war, having nothing to do with not
just non-existent nuclear weapons program or any other nonsense that was made up, but we have
to get totally new to all of Israel's neighbors.
so that they cannot defend themselves or Palestinians or Lebanese people.
But on top of that, we apparently owe Israel economic domination of the region.
And that is part of the reason why 18 Americans are dead and over 700 are injured and more on the way.
Because Israel demands everything and we have to apparently serve them.
And so now we're bragging, ha ha, we already won, and we're sure that we've got a path through the Strait of Hormuz.
Besides which we're gonna use the Israeli pipeline and make them spectacularly wealthy.
So all of your deaths and all the money that America spent will be well worth it for our Israeli benefactors.
Okay, so do I think any of that is true?
No, I don't think this trade of hormone is open and neither do the markets, neither do the oil companies, neither does planet Earth.
But Bessent and Trump just keep going merrily on.
We're winning, we've already won. Mission accomplished and in fact Trump put out a mission accomplished video the other day.
day, right? So they really think it's totally and utterly over, over, and they're also
saying comments like we're waiting for them to beg us to end the war and things like that.
It's so embarrassing. I mean, meanwhile, the Iranians are like, okay, you guys are going to make
us do it, like we're gonna do something terrible, and we've warned you now 200 times, and I
guarantee you when it happens, whatever it is, and maybe they don't, I hope they don't, but whatever
it is, then of course, all of American media will line out with, I can't believe Iran did this.
I mean, just because we declared war on them and have been bombing them this entire time and
murdered their kids and bomb weddings and how dare they strike back?
It's a surprise attack by Iran.
That drove me crazy.
When in the middle of us bombing them, Iran bombed us back one time.
And every paper reported it as a surprise attack.
How could it be a surprise when it's a retaliation for our earlier bombing?
Yeah, because the loathsome neocon war mongers in America pretend like they don't understand
the concept of blowback.
That they don't understand that when you go in and you slaughter innocence, when you do as
the Israelis do and you wipe out entire families with your disgusting military operations.
What does that lead to?
That leads to blowback.
That's what happens in the real world.
Now the Israelis don't understand that because we, the American people, are forced to pay
for their interceptors.
We're forced to pay for the Iron Dome, so they're free to slaughter as much as they want,
wipe out literally dozens, dozens of villages in southern Lebanon, including Christian villages,
by the way.
Is that where Hezbo is hiding in the Christian villages?
They're not hiding in the Christian villages.
We know what they're actually doing.
They're wiping out entire villages because they want to take the land, okay?
That's who the Israelis are, that's what they're gonna do.
We are funding their expansionist project, and we're bleeding out everyone.
The American people are bleeding out on behalf of a disgusting, genocidal pariah state.
That is what's happening right now.
Yeah, and so best of when I'm talking about how we're gonna go up to British Virgin Islands,
and as we suspected, and yeah, because they're the real enemy.
Canada and Virgin Islands are the real problem, but Israel that has forced us into all of these
disastrous wars where we wasted trillions of dollars and thousands of lives are our greatest
ally. Everything in Washington is topsy-turvy, upside-down, bizarre world. So, but on top of that,
as we suspected and reported to you guys earlier, yes, the whole thing of like, killer economic
sanctions are mainly aimed at the Gulf and the Arab countries. Of course, because a Dubai branch
of an Egyptian bank apparently is working with the Iranians or did some transactions with
them, so the Israelis are displeased.
So Scott Besant has been launched to make sure that our Gulf allies that actually have
our bases on them are punished, right?
So you were actually helping us with our military bases?
You'll get no protection at all, we'll spend all of our missiles defending Israel instead
of you or our own troops, and then on top of that, if you don't follow every order of the
Israelis, we will then sanction you and try to take your money away too.
It's disgusting.
So we burn all of our alliances, all across the world, all on behalf of Israel for a war
that over 80% of Americans are opposed to, and over 80% of Israelis are in favor of.
So look, I don't want the war under any circumstances, but these days, like our press
is so mental, so detached from reality.
So when we say, why doesn't Israel fight its own war, they go.
anti-Semite.
I'm so sick of their shit.
Right?
How dare you suggest that Israel
at dissoil itself with its own war?
No, America must fight it.
And if you object, if you object, it's only because you hate Jewish people.
Right, right, right.
Insanity, utter insanity.
And when you talk about blowback, guys, you've seen this with your own eyes.
When anyone tries to explain, hey, why did Iran hit us back, right?
Why did 9-11 happen?
Why did any of these things happen?
Why did October 7th happen?
No, no, we don't talk about that.
They say how dare you-
We don't talk about that.
They say, how dare you, you anti-Semites?
You're endangering Jewish people by having a rational intellectual conversation about the
causes of foreign policy of different countries and geopolitical considerations.
Well, anyone who isn't a moron would have that conversation.
Why are we in this war?
Why are they bombing us?
If you don't want to have that conversation, what you're saying is, I'm either a giant
moron posing as a reporter or I'm a thug propagandist for Israel.
And I don't want you to have that conversation, because if you do, you'll all find out
it's all because we are allies with Israel and we keep helping them murder their neighbors.
And that is why the Middle East is pissed at us.
It's not at all complicated unless you're a disgusting liar who claims to be a journalist
working in mainstream media and you go, I don't know, I don't know why.
But if you try to discuss it, you anti-Semite will destroy you, right?
Right?
I mean, guys, you just saw them do it to Abdul-Said.
We covered it yesterday.
He explained why there was, you know, why the guy attacked the synagogue in Michigan.
That's terrible, everybody agrees, including Abdul, that it's terrible that the guy attacked the synagogue.
And then we go, but why did he attack the synagogue?
Oh, it turns out his family members had been killed in an Israeli strike.
Now, that doesn't justify it.
Don't you wish you could just hit skip on the worst parts of your life?
You know, the same way you can skip an ad?
I get it.
I'm Siaiaia and I live in Ice Cove.
I've made some questionable decisions that didn't end up the way I planned.
And today, I'm still figuring it out.
Somehow things usually get worse before they get better.
Apparently, that's how I roll.
So bundle up and come along for the way.
bumpy ride.
Stream a new episode of North of North Tuesdays on CBC Gem.
But you then go, oh, I understand why he did what he did.
How can we prevent it, right?
But they go, no, no, no, don't have a rational conversation.
Don't you dare.
You just have to say everyone else in the world is evil and the only good people are the Israelis.
And if you dare question that, then we're just going to call you an anti-Semite and say you're
endangering Jewish lives.
And we're going to try to strangle you politically until you have no life for you.
left politically and then Israel wins again, but we're all objective.
Shut that f up, man.
We're in the middle of this disastrous war, you've ruined America's economy, you're getting
the Americans killed every single day for a war that America definitely does not want.
Our politicians are definitely bribed by Israel.
That is an empirical fact, number one donor in the last two election cycles, over $100
million both.
Trump has over $300 million from just one Israeli family.
And yet, Arden, like, now Anna, today.
What are you supposed to do when a government decides they want to wipe out your entire family?
Are you supposed to provide them with flowers and thank them for it?
Do you not think that, okay, let's put it in the terms of the Israelis.
They have desecrated the memories of the Israeli citizens who were killed on October 7th, okay?
by exploiting their death to justify the mass slaughter they engage in.
They have been slaughtering left and right in countries that had nothing to do with Hamas,
nothing to do with Gaza.
They've just been slaughter machines and they've been using, exploiting the deaths of Israelis to do it.
So why is it okay for them to want retaliation when there's unjustified slaughter on their side?
But when they themselves carry out the slaughter of innocence, wiping out entire families,
they're like shocked and chagrin that anyone would want to retaliate?
Yeah, and so in the case of the synagogue, he's retaliating against the wrong guys.
Of course, what he did was wrong.
Right, and so those are Jewish Americans that didn't have anything to do with this.
My point is, the Israelis out of everyone on this planet understand blowback more than anyone
because they've exploited it for their own advantage over and over again.
But don't pretend that you're dumb and you don't.
I don't know why he did it.
He lost four members of his family, and you could say, oh, well, his family was evil,
and he's evil, and everyone that Israel murders is evil, et cetera.
Okay, you're choosing to shut off your mind and not figure out why people do things, so we can prevent it.
So there is not another shooting at a synagogue ever again.
But no, they go, no, if you ever use your mind, we'll say you're a bigot, okay?
And if you object to genocides, we'll call you a bigot and try to destroy your life.
But by the way, if you committed genocide, you are not a bigot.
If you murder over 73,000 Palestinians, 83% of them civilians, according to the IDF, that's
not bigoted.
Well, those Muslims deserve to be murdered and butchered, but they're not bigots.
If you complain about the slaughterhouse, then you're a bigot?
No, no, what that says is all of Washington is occupied.
The government is occupied and the media is occupied.
That's why they keep driving you into these endless wars.
Now they promise that they're gonna end the wars and every new guy, no matter who you elect,
you get Benjamin Nanyahu.
Everybody knows that.
That's not everything we're telling you is empirically correct and is never challenged.
That's why they call you names.
That's why they do ad hominem attacks.
That's why they imply that you're a bigot or an anti-Semite, because they know they cannot
argue you on the facts.
And if the American people find out the facts, they're gonna find out that it's not just
Palestine that's occupied or southern Lebanon, southern Syria, and everywhere else, the
Israelis have brought their imperial fascist empire.
We're occupied.
That's why we are in this disastrous war with Iran.
And that's why it's now been amped up.
And when Iran retaliates, the disgusting liars in our media will tell you they did it out of nowhere.
And it was so surprised.
And God forbid if they attack Israel, then they'll say, oh, oh, victims, the greatest victims in the world.
I mean, they demand to have wars and have no casualties.
They only demand to murder and slaughter you.
But if you ever fight back, they'll say, you anti-Semite, you should have just gotten murdered,
your kids should have gotten murdered, everybody at the wedding should have gotten murdered.
Not complain because if you do, then you're an anti-Semi.
Do you see how disgusting our media is?
How occupied our media is?
So, okay, so they'll tell you that it hasn't.
And the thing I was going to say, last thing, Anna, is as I read half a dozen articles today
about why we're being pushed back into the Iran war, why J.D. Vance is going back and
kissing Israeli donor's asses and why they say he hasn't done enough, et cetera.
They never mentioned the funding.
They never mentioned that the politicians take hundreds of millions of dollars from the
Israeli lobby.
Are you saying that's not relevant?
Is every reporter in this country raising their hand and saying,
I'm a moron of epic proportions?
And I don't realize that hundreds of millions of dollars affects human beings.
I am the world's worst and dumbest reporter.
Every single national reporter is saying that through their stupid, unacceptable, completely lying coverage.
Or you're covering up the fact that they're bribing our entire government so that our politicians serve your beloved Israel just like you, and they don't serve Americans.
So, okay, well, more of us will go die for Israel.
And then they'll say that it's our fault.
If we weren't anti-Semitic, we'd die for Israel quicker.
So, all right, go ahead, you scum in media.
Go ahead, scum media.
Lie more.
Call the whole country anti-Semites.
Go ahead.
And they demand that we'd go die for Israel.
Go ahead.
And lie and lie and lie.
Never tell anybody about all the money that they used to bribe our politicians.
And you'll have this wonderful war that you always wanted for your below.
I love it Israel, and then you call 98% of Americans, anti-Semites, and crush them, right?
And make them go die for you, right?
Oh, I'm never going to mention it.
And I'm never going to mention the Israeli lobby.
The Israeli lobby occupies us.
We are not free.
They have stolen our freedom from us.
I hope that was clear enough.
Remember, the military leadership that has been ousted from our military has warned that our
depletion of interceptors because of this war against Iran makes it harder to defend our homeland.
So congratulations America, we are less safe.
But hey, Israel gets to expand its borders, so don't you feel great about it?
We'll be right back.
We must stop the terror.
Now watch his drive.
All right, back on TYT. Sexy Speed racer says upper management is leaving the military,
the soldiers, the sailors, and the aviators on the front lines are denied that luxury.
Disgusting.
Jenks left tricep of fury says, we must be in a sequel to Groundhog Day because, but this version is a horror movie.
That's a haunting analogy, actually, yeah.
Boomer Dragon Cat says, Trump's trying to engineer an escalation that he believes will demand.
He used nukes.
I'm heart sick about this.
What else do we have to throw at them?
Kat, that's part of the reason why I am so livid today.
They're totally headed towards the nuke.
And then they'll say there was nothing we could do and we had to do it.
We didn't have a choice.
One Israeli was slightly injured.
Well, okay, his hair was ruffled.
And so we had to murder like a million Persians because to protect the Persians.
Whatever, they'll lie and all the media will go.
Of course, only the anti-Semites object to nukes and destroying entire civilizations.
The American people are disgusting, racist and bigots against the poor,
Israelis, right? F all of media. All of you guys, you're all so disgusting. Okay, I hope I was
clear enough. Art guy, today we're all jank maxing. The economy's crashing and markets crashing,
but it's gonna get way, way, way worse and they're all gonna keep telling you, you know,
it's great, shut up you cattle. Has Israel considered that maybe destroying the global economy
for their disgusting war is leading to people hating them? And it has nothing to do with Judaism?
No, it's just a need. Come on, please. Like, I'm so sick of the perpetual victimhood.
Stop exploiting the Holocaust to be disgusting mass murderers, okay? That's what you guys are.
Back on TYT, Fais Smith. Thank you for gifting a membership on YouTube. Appreciate it.
All right, Anna, what are we going back to?
We're not going back to anything. Let's do B-block.
Okay, B-block. All right, guys, give me a sec.
All right, despite Scott Besson's efforts to manipulate bond yields through buybacks, yields are still rising in the U.S.
In fact, they're rising all over the world.
And that could be a huge problem for all of us because this clown claims the war is over and that he's got all the great strategies.
So he did this brilliant economic strategy.
He thought it totally backfired.
But now he claims, I have this under control.
Scott Besson.
What a corrupt fool.
All right, Anna, tell us the whole story.
Well, you can't put lipstick on a pig.
And the fact of the matter is, we are in so much debt.
And in fact, many developed countries are in so much debt that the cutesy little
manipulation tactics that Secretary of Treasury Scott Besson engaged in didn't really help
the bond yield.
So that's what this is really about, despite Besson's efforts to manipulate bond yields
through these buybacks, turns out the yields are still rising.
Now, in order to really understand what we're talking about here, we need to dive into
the 10-year treasury yield.
And if that sounds like foreign language to you, have no fear,
because you're about to hear from a former investment banker.
His name is Patrick Boyle.
And I think he did a really good job explaining how the 10-year yield works.
Take a look at this.
Now, the 10-year treasury yield is frequently described as the most important number in finance.
And while that sounds like the sort of thing people say about everything,
Let me explain why both you and the government should really care about this yield.
For you, it works like this.
When you take out a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage, the bank doesn't just pick that rate out of thin air.
It derives it from the 10-year treasury yield and adds a little bit on for the risk that you're less credit-worthy than the US government.
Car loans, credit card rates, the rate that companies pay to borrow money to build a factory, all of these are prized.
off of government bond yields. When the 10-year goes up, the cost of borrowing goes up for everyone
else. The 10-year Treasury is the wholesale price of money, and everything else is retail. For the
government, it matters for a more direct reason. The 10-year is the rate at which the US government
borrows money for 10 years, and the United States borrows quite a lot of money. So, when that
yield goes up, the government's own interest rate bill rises with it.
So what you also need to understand is that the price of a bond and the yield,
meaning the interest rate that an investor can expect as a return on purchasing those bonds,
it has an inverse relationship. So in other words, when people are selling bonds,
which is what's happening right now, that's when you see the yield go up, meaning the rate that the
investor can expect as a return on investment on buying U.S. Treasuries, okay?
So investors have been selling U.S. bonds.
You wanna know why?
Because they don't trust that the United States will be able to pay back its debt.
And there's good reason to believe that.
We are $40 trillion in debt.
There is no end in sight.
There is no indication that our government has any interest in dealing with our ongoing
deficit woes, which obviously contribute to the national debt.
And in response to all of this, what are we doing?
We are continuing and in fact re-engaging kinetically against Iran, which is very expensive to
do.
We are fighting Israel's war against Iran.
And it's costing us a lot of money, it's putting us deeper into debt.
And what Besson tried to do with attempting to monkey the bond market by issuing more short-term
government debt to pay off long-term government debt hasn't worked.
It failed to slow down the sell off in US Treasury bonds, and now the yield on 10-year
Treasury notes reached its highest since January of 2025, briefly hitting 4.8%, and the yield on
the 30-year bond continued to hover around a two-decade high.
What's even more concerning is that we're seeing a bond sell-off in other countries as well.
Now, other countries are dealing with debt, but what's contributing to their woe,
here with the bond sell-offs is the Iran War, which obviously is having an impact on the global
economy. So this week, the yield on 10-year bonds in Japan, for instance, climbed above 3% for the
first time since 1996. In Britain, they reached their highest level since mid-2007, and in Germany,
they hit levels last seen in 2011. And if you take a look at this graph from the New York Times,
you'll see what we're talking about. So you're looking at 10-year government bond yields from
2005 through today in the US, Canada, Japan, Britain, France.
You get the picture and Germany.
And as you can see, the yields are going up.
And remember, when yields go up, it's because people are selling.
Cenk.
Yeah, I think the great unraveling probably began today.
So that's a big statement, but why?
Because today we reattacked Iran, restarted.
putting a full scale war on top of the economic sanctions that we're doing.
They're gonna retaliate, we're gonna retaliate back, we're on a path to disaster,
we're basically out of defensive missiles, so what we're really worried about is that
we're gonna do something maniacally stupid like a nuke.
And Trump today was asked about it, he said he's not taking any options off the table,
but it's a stupid question.
No, it's not.
As I reported to you guys over the weekend, the earlier,
Last month in August, they had a conversation between one of the top leaders of the Pentagon
and former ambassador, a public conversation about how nukes have to be integrated into our
conventional forces.
But don't worry, it's only going to be limited strikes, limited tactical nukes.
These are all nonsense.
There's nothing, nukes have radiation, there's nothing limited or tactical about them, okay?
So that's on the military side.
Now on the economic side, we're bragging about how we're gonna take people off the
dollar if they dare work with Iran. Well, China and Russia work with Iran
then make some economic deals with them. So we're gonna take them off the dollar. Well,
if we take them off the dollar, maybe all of bricks goes off the dollar. Well,
that doesn't hurt bricks nearly as much as it hurts us. 100%. It hurts us. Okay, so now our
Treasury bonds are going through the roof, interest rates are going through
roof, like you know, you've been told including by me yesterday, that means your
mortgage is going up, that means every credit card bill you have is going up. That
That means our debt is going up.
And meanwhile, I want you to remember that obnoxious smug face of Scott Besson, every time
you have to pay more, whether it's at the gas pump or any of the bills you get at home.
Because this guy's claiming we've already won and that he's taking a victory lap as we're
in the middle of this epic downside.
And the markets lost over 400 points today, the Dow did, right?
And because now Brent crude, that's the top marker for oil prices is at $95 and rising.
So 95 is way past about a third more than it was before the war.
And they're barely keeping the lid on that price.
Besson tried to keep a lid on the treasury bonds and he couldn't do it.
One of the guys who wrote an op-ed against him was his former partner, Stan Drucken Miller.
So if you guys don't know, Drunken Miller and Bessent used to work for,
George Soros. Now I was told by the Republicans George Soros was pure evil. I don't believe that.
What happened? And I don't have any problems with these guys previously, okay? But now all of a sudden,
we're supposed to love George Soros and his acolytes. I mean, how is that for, like, and nobody
even talks about it, right? Like I don't talk about it because I don't think Soros is evil or whatever.
I want to take all money out of politics, including Soros is, right? But all the Republicans all of
of a sudden love Soros and all of us, okay, fine, no problem.
It's almost like a lot of what they engage in is theater, Jank.
Almost.
And it's almost like the reporters never call out the theater instead participate in the
theater.
Yeah, well, they're actors.
Right.
So, all right, now back to Drucken Miller, he says basically, Scott, what are you doing?
You know that you can't keep a lid on a market.
It's too big.
Treasury bonds, that's the 10-year one is the one that sets all the prices, is that
video explained to you guys, right?
So you think you're gonna buy $4 billion worth of something or other and make sure that
that creates duct tape to make sure the prices don't go further up?
That's not gonna work.
And it doesn't matter if you put $40 billion or $400 billion in.
It's not gonna work.
Do you not know how markets function?
And that's the thing Scott Besson does.
That's why- That's why he's out of breath every time you see him in public.
He's like hyperventilating and trying to keep it under-contracting.
Have you noticed that?
He's like, oh, he's like breathing heavy.
He's like, we are gonna manipulate the markets because we have already won.
I'm like, have we?
Have we?
You look like you're about to have a freaking heart attack, man.
And so today he comes out with a smug attack against Drunken Miller, his former, you know,
partner in essence.
And he's like, I bet Scott lost money today.
He gets cranky when he loses money.
I bet that's why he said something.
He wrote an op-ed, man.
And writing an op-ed against you is not a little thing.
It's a big thing, especially in the markets, right?
And then he says, you know, Stan changes his mind all the time.
Oh, okay, so you guys were bad investors together and he was fickle and didn't know what he was doing?
Okay, you sound like you've really got this thing figured out, Scott.
But you know what?
All of you, and by the way, Wall Street, trust Scott Besson like morons.
Scott Besson is a giant liar and he's lying to you right now.
And disaster is on its way, thanks to them.
Scott Besson and Donald Trump, and of course, they're the people they work for, Benjamin Nenya.
Let me give you one of his latest lies.
So Besson, of course, is doing what he can to try to cover his ass, but it's not working.
It's got a graphic five here where CNBC notes that on Monday, Besson told CNBC's Sarah
Eisen, the benchmark 10 year yield is flat since President Trump came in, a sign of stability
in the market. In reality, the 10 year is up about 18 basis points since Trump's second inauguration.
By the way, one other thing I should note is, you know, he's trying to kind of put on this, like,
confidence suit. Like I'm really crushing it. And he's even throwing out insults toward others,
including members of the Democratic Party. So I want to just quickly show you what he had to say about the Democrats and how
they're supposedly just lazy.
When we look at the demographic of those voters, they are overeducated and under earning.
Yes.
So these are underachievers who are jealous of those who want to go and work every day.
He's talking about ordinary Americans, by the way.
I'm not talking about members of the Democratic Party.
And by the way, I mean, he didn't even specify Democrats, just anyone complaining about what's
happening in the economy, they're just jealous.
They're just jealous.
Yeah, we're really jealous of your skin suit.
I don't know whose skin it is, but so it's like drooping over his face.
And you guys are all jealous of me, because I'm so spectacular.
The rich are the greatest thing in the world.
You guys are all rich because you're underperformers.
Us rich are laughing at you.
Destroy your, enjoy your destroyed economy.
We already got our money out.
You look like a bond villain, man.
You look like a giant douche.
that everyone in the country hates.
So, okay, hey, you walk out four years later with a beautiful economy, then you're going
to get the last laugh, okay?
But when the economy crashes, I don't want to hear any of your BS, no matter whose skin
you're wearing, about, oh, we could have, would have, but no, it was somebody else's foil.
It was Biden, it was Jimmy Carter.
No, it's 100% Scott Bessent and Donald Trump.
Well, when we come back from the break, we'll talk about the post office getting involved
in making decisions about who to send mail-in ballots to.
There's a whistleblower report about this.
You don't want to miss the details on this story.
It does bolster some of what you had to say last week, Jenk.
We'll be right back.
Why would I want to blow up the global financial system?
We got a moron here.
All right, let's go to Super Chat.
Little Mac's Corner says the current interest on debt is already high as our defense spending,
to 1% who've enriched themselves from government spending equals the 1% that owns lots,
the bonds we pay interest to.
That is how rig the game is.
Miyagawa, Ketsuki, Otaku Dragon says a pipeline to get around the Hormuz Strait.
Nice, because the only thing that comes through the strait is oil.
He's being sarcastic.
There's fertilizer, there's a billion products that go through the Strait of Hormuz.
But you know, anyways, they all know.
that but they lie to you and the media goes along with it. Dr.
Knape on X says you guys are telling the truth that few will fight on. Thank you.
Madam X says corrupt and reckless leaders don't pay the price for war. Soldiers, widows,
and orphans do. Every decision to escalate creates another human cost, that's right,
but they don't care about us at all. All they care about, because we're not Israelis.
If you were precious Israelis, then they would care a lot about you. You didn't bribe them.
So that's, oh, I'm sorry, reporters. That was just the contribution.
And it didn't affect them at all, right?
All right, Jay Bill's 3000 says Anna looks amazing in gold.
These are YouTube members now.
Thank you.
Sailor, Squatch, and his semen says,
Hey, I reached a milestone and I'm not sure which one,
but here's so many more years to come for TYT.
Thank you, Sailor.
Michael Rosamilas, is Roe Kana needs to run for president in 2028.
Well, he'll be on in a little bit.
You guys can see for yourselves.
Galfer 71 has an interesting theory on Twitch.
Anybody else ever noticed that Jenk gets the maddest on Tuesdays right before Operation Joy, L.O.L.
I don't know if that's right, but at least that makes sense.
It's a good way to vent first.
Microgram says Besson never starts, stops, dork maxing.
Why would I want to blow up the global financial system?
Yes, you did. Yes, you did.

So let's go to our next story.
A new whistleblower at the post office says that they might be messing
with all of our mail-in ballots, great, and that it could cause incredible chaos and lead
to a lot of people not being able to vote.
We warned you about this a couple of days ago, and here it is.
Anna, give us the whole story.
Well, before I give you the details, anyone who still believes that voting matters and
you're waiting on a mail-in ballot to take part in the midterms, don't wait for the
mail-in ballot.
plans to show up to the polls and vote in person.
Because I have no doubt in my mind that the Trump administration is doing what they can
to make it difficult to vote and to prevent mail and ballots from getting to eligible voters.
How do I know that?
Well, let's get to the details.
So there has been an anonymous whistleblower report that was released by Senator Richard
Blumenthal's office.
And this report raises concerns specifically about the Postal Service, which is a publicer
Which I love, I love the post office, but Trump has now tapped the post office to do his dirty work for him.
And basically, thanks to an executive order that Trump signed, the Postal Service is preparing to
launch this rushed and error prone computer system that will jeopardize mail-in voting.
So this comes despite a court order that would block the plan from being implemented in the first place.
So in the disclosure, the whistleblower report says that the Postal Service has adopted an
internal 0% failure policy under which an entire batch of ballots would be rejected if a single
barcode sampled by a postal employee could not be scanned or matched with information
submitted through a new online portal. That means a single mismatch, just one, a single mismatch
in a batch of 10,000 ballots would prevent 9,99 other ballots from being mailed to the eligible
voters that it should be mailed to under discrepancies until discrepancies were resolved.
So keep in mind that in America, one third of voters vote by mail.
Trump knows that. In fact, Trump himself likes to vote by mail. He has voted by mail twice
this year alone. Homeboy loves to vote by mail. He just doesn't want you to be able to vote by mail.
So making matters worse, the Postal Service wasn't supposed to be launching this.
They weren't even supposed to be working on this. Why?
Well, because there was a federal judge who ruled on this effort.
Back in March, Trump had signed that executive order that would give the post office power
to determine who is and isn't eligible to receive a mail-in ballot.
To be specific, the order directs federal agencies to create state citizenship lists of eligible voters.
those would be sent to state election officials and to the Postal Service, which could refuse
to mail ballots for anyone whose name was not listed.
Now last week, as we had shared with you all, the Supreme Court gave Trump a partial victory
by allowing him to move forward with his executive order because the lawsuits that were filed
against the EO, according to the Supreme Court, had no standing.
They hadn't been implemented yet, there hadn't been damages yet, so it was too
early to argue that these states who had sued the Trump administration to halt the EO,
they didn't have the standing to do the lawsuits, right? However, days before the court,
days before the court ruled, the Postal Service formally published a new plan to comply with the
EO, the executive order. It said it would only send mail ballots for states that got approval
for the design of their envelopes and submitted a list of voters receiving them,
through the still not active online portal.
You guys get that?
The portal isn't even active yet.
Okay, that gave the plaintiffs standing and an opportunity to sue again.
And so at this point, federal judge steps in.
Judge Indira Talwani, a federal district court judge in Massachusetts, reasoned that the stakes
had changed with the new plan and temporarily blocked it, concluding that the agency's plan
appeared to overstep its legal mandate and could spark chaos by changing rules a little more
than two months before an election. But instead of stopping what the Postal Service was doing,
they actually rushed to implement this new digital system. And it will cause problems,
as I explained earlier. You have one ballot that isn't perfect. Well, that entire batch of ballots,
including 9,999 of them, if we're talking about 10,000 ballots, they all get rejected.
And all of those voters will not receive the mail-in ballot.
So according to the disclosure by the whistleblowers, a complex system like this would typically
take a year or more to implement properly. Obviously, it's not being implemented with a year or more.
It's not given enough time to be implemented in a way where people won't be disenfranchised,
even though they are eligible voters.
And keep in mind, the first mail ballots are set to go out in North Carolina this week on Friday.
So the unnamed official alleged that the portal was assembled under constantly changing requirements
and with as few as four working days available for customer testing before a planned launch.
And with this election happening soon, many things could go wrong and prevent, again, eligible voters from receiving mail-in ballots.
that they are entitled to receiving.
But that is the whole point, guys.
And to me, this is a sign of Trump and the Republicans acknowledging that he screwed his base
over so much that they're in a world of trouble in the lead up to the midterms.
So why not rig the system to make it difficult for voters to vote?
That's what they're trying to do here.
Yeah, I mean, they keep talking about voter fraud.
This would be the largest voter fraud of my lifetime,
trying to just summarily block all of these different legitimate votes.
And by the way, if you don't agree,
a lot of Republicans vote by mail.
So what if he accidentally blocks more Republican votes?
And then are you gonna cry about voter fraud?
I mean, what if he accidentally blocked way more Republican votes?
Because a lot of Republicans are older voters, okay?
Right.
And they do more mail-in votes.
Then would you go from, oh, it was for fighting fraud to now it is fraud.
Does it depend on which party gets blocked more?
Okay, no, we shouldn't block anyone's votes.
That's a form of voter fraud is to say, hey, I don't want those people voting.
So I'm gonna find some illegitimate way to make sure I block it.
So I got more, but go ahead.
Yeah, no, I mean, you're making a really great point, but I just want you to kind of
consider the moment that we're in right now, because the moment we're in right now is very different from like,
2020, 2020, Trump still had a very loyal base that was willing to ride or die for him.
He doesn't have that base anymore.
Now, he still has like a cult following.
It's a much smaller group of people, but he broke his promises toward his base.
And a lot of his voters have turned on him.
And so he knows that these voters are unlikely to show up to the polls anyway.
They're unlikely to vote anyway, because they're not going to turn around and vote for Democrats.
just not gonna vote at all. So these mail-in ballots are going to impact Democrats more.
And this is his way of disenfranchising them and preventing them from being able to vote.
But here's the thing.
Just because we think more Democrats are gonna vote.
Yeah, because usually, especially, you know, when the Republicans are in charge, during
the midterms, Democrats are galvanized, they show up and vote, and vice versa if, you know,
there's a Democratic administration in charge.
So that's likely what, you know, the rationale is behind what Trump is doing.
So now look, if we can't stop it, then I'm going to tell you a couple of more depressing facts.
But I think that we might be able to stop it.
So we'll get to that in a second.
So number one, 37% of votes in Michigan are by mail.
So and that's set to be a very, very close race between Abdul Al-Said and Mike Rogers.
So if they wind up blocking even 1% of the votes, 2% of the votes, and they're disproportionately Democratic, well, at that point, I wrong.
ironically Democratic leadership will celebrate, probably, you know, if Mitch McConnell's still alive,
Schumer and McConnell would go out for a drink, right? Like, yeah, we defeated Abdul al-Said.
Finally, that guy who wouldn't listen to Israel and wouldn't take their bribes, right?
Okay, I got you, but we can't have that election being messed with in either direction,
any election in either direction. And they're obviously messing with it. And guys, if you're in the
dubs her end of MAGA and you're like, oh, no, Trump can do no wrong.
He's so great.
The mail in voting is definitely evil.
Then why did Trump do mail in voting?
Why does he do it every time?
Why did he do it twice this year?
So is Trump evil?
Is he committing voter fraud?
Can you make up your minds about what your governing philosophy is if you have one
at all or what your ideology or just a simple idea, a simple consistency?
A lot of people who voted for Trump have made up their mind.
And like Anna said, I've decided, no, this isn't anything we voted for at all.
We got nothing we voted for, right?
So now this second scary part is then there's going to be the mess with double voting.
So because if you're worried that your mail-in ballot that you already mailed in isn't going to count,
you're going to go to try to vote in person.
And then if you vote twice, they're going to go, aha, voter fraud.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
And then they might start arresting people.
And so he's trying to create a hot mess because he's positive they're going to lose.
So he's like, well, even if it's just chaos, that's better for our purposes than letting people vote legitimately.
So this is the person who's in charge.
And if you're on the right and you were like, oh, it's hyperbolic to say that Donald Trump would mess with our elections.
Come on, man.
Like he didn't mess around in 2020.
and he's not doing it now? Of course he is. Of course he is. That's all he ever does is lie and cheat and steal.
So, okay, now the last ray of hope is that district judge that Anna told you about.
So Supreme Court thought they were clever. And they said, oh, okay, well, it hasn't started yet.
So technically we can't weigh in yet. So we'll just say you don't have standing and block it on technical reasons.
Well, the district judge said, well, now it has started. So I'm going to say you can't do it.
And they're violating that court order, which is totally illegal.
I'm sure arrests are imminent.
So now it's going to have to go back to the Supreme Court.
And otherwise right now, they cannot do it.
There's a federal ruling saying you're not allowed to do it.
So then we'll see.
Is the Supreme Court going to go?
Yeah, we don't care.
We don't care.
We're just going to, it should be a states rights issue.
Conservatives should care about states' rights.
But screw states rights, screw what the law is, screw everything, let's just try to destroy these elections.
It's not like they haven't done it before.
They literally stole the 2000 election.
They made Florida stop counting.
And if it turns out that if Florida kept counting, Al Gore would have won.
He would have won the electoral college.
So the Supreme Court has stolen an election before, and maybe they'll steal this one.
But they're going to have to go back and re-adjudicate it because the current rule of the land is you are, the post office,
is not allowed to do this.
And so that's why the whistleblower saying they're ignoring the federal ruling,
they're breaking the law, and they're doing it anyway is a very important story.
When we come back for the second hour, Congressman Roe Conno will be joining us to talk about,
you know, the most important issue impacting our lives every single day in this country.
Anti-Semitism, we'll be right back.
Hey, Andrew, what's up?
Hey, Jake, 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.
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.
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 save between $500 and $1,000 a year on Noble.
Yeah, no.
You know what I'm going to 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.
Oh, my gosh, I just called you and are you now on Noble and not Verizon?
Why didn't you tell me it was going to 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.
Jank, you still there?
Andrew?
Oh, well, at least I got an noble moment.
It was really just one tape.
The whole thing is wild.
It's in my shoes.
This is my shoes.
Hi, I'm Brett Ehrlich with Breaking News with Brett Ehrlich.
This is Breaking News with Brett Ehrlich.
Hi.
Red Ehrlich here.
According to EPA head Scott Pruitt, climate change is not happening.
He cited a meme on Facebook he saw.
When pressed to back up this source, he said it must 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 now,
Nearly absolute. Everyday working people need a champion to 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.
People have died for us to have the chance to vote.
So there's just the beginning of a much bigger fight over the president's desire to interfere in the midterm elections.
He's deploying multiple strategies using every tool available and testing out each one of them.
You're damn right. We're going to have ICE surround the polls come November.
To the challenge to stop people from vote.
All right, back on the Young Turks, Jake Hugar and Anne Experian with you guys.
Joining us now is Representative Ro Khanna.
And we're going to talk to him about a number of issues that are pressing right now, both in foreign policy and in Congress.
Representative Kana, welcome back to the show.
Great to be back on.
All right.
So I'm going to ask you about something that happened just now.
So there was a resolution introduced by four so-called Democrats against DSA.
And they wanted other Democrats to come in and bash the Democratic Socialists of America as a message statement.
I have a theory as to why they did that and it has nothing new with socialism.
We'll get to that in a second.
But you are not in DSA.
You're in arguably a different wing of the party.
You're more of an economic populist.
But you objected to that resolution anyway.
Why is that?
Well, the resolution was basically a smear.
I mean, Democratic socialists were running and winning across the country, like Mamdani,
like Milad Keros, like Adam Hamawi, like Chris Rob, are running because they want Medicare for
all.
They want a tax billionaire wealth.
They don't want foreign wars.
And they want no aid to Israel.
And that is a platform that a lot of young people are resonating with.
And so if we're gonna build a broad coalition, a New Deal coalition, we need these people in our tent.
And if anything, a lot of the energy is wind their candidacies.
Yeah, so I'm gonna show your graphic of the four that introduced this resolution.
I don't think it has anything to do with economics.
They mentioned Mao and stuff like what Mao is going to take over America, that ideology.
Anyways, this is all their track A-PAC numbers, and it's in the millions.
And my sense of it is that they are did this resolution to attack all the candidates who
have criticized Israel.
And a lot of those same names are constantly attacking Abdul al-Said in Michigan.
Under the guise of criticizing Hassan Piker or a streamer or a blogger or a poet.
So is there a faction inside the Democratic Party because it certainly looks like it, that
is trying to make sure that Abdul al-Said and other Democratic candidates lose?
because they've been criticizing Israel.
Yes.
I mean, I whether they admit it or not, I mean, they certainly are making more
criticisms of him than some of the Republicans are.
And have you noticed that the vitriol in the criticisms?
I'm very proud of co-chairing Bernie Sanders' campaigns.
But Bernie never got even this kind of personal vitriol where they are going after Abdul's
faith and his wife and his statements. I mean, it's really playing on religious and ethnic
stereotypes. Maxine Waters referred to DSA as the plague, which makes me think that, you know,
a lot of this division among establishment Democrats and establishment Republicans seems to be
nothing more than theater. They seem to be in cahoots on a lot of the important issues,
whether it be foreign policy, economic decisions.
You know, it's fascinating to me that Tucker Carlson, who literally helped Donald Trump get elected,
is the only one who's shouting from the rooftops about how Trump needs to be impeached because
he's considering the use of nuclear weapons in the Middle East.
I haven't heard a single Democrat even broach the topic.
Do they enjoy what's happening in the Middle East?
Are they enjoying the global economic meltdown that we're all dealing with on behalf of precious Israel?
Well, as you know, Thomas Massey and I introduced the war powers resolution to stop this war in Iran before it began.
And I have called for Trump's impeachment since he threatened extinction of Iran with nuclear weapons months ago.
And I said that we need to speak out about the moral depravity of what he's doing.
But I do believe that there are more and more Democrats were winning across the country who are opposed to these foreign wars, who are opposed to the funding to Israel, who are horrified by Trump's foreign policy, and who are horrified by the establishment in our own party is of foreign policy.
And so, you know, that sign needs to win. I mean, it's as simple as that. I mean, it's a, this party is a, this party is.
up for grabs and the question is who's gonna lead it.
All right, and now let me go to Jared Musk was unfortunately one more time because he's
involved in this drama between Hakeem Jeffries and Jared Kushner.
So they meet, they say it's about affordability.
Jared Kushner had proposals on affordability.
That seems surprising to me, I'm curious whether you think that that's correct.
And then I said afterwards that no, I don't think that they met about that.
They think they met about Jared Kushner's field of expertise, which these days, such as it
is as foreign policy.
And right after the meeting, Jared Muscovets was chosen to serve as the ranking member of the
Foreign Affairs Committee's Middle East and North Africa Subcommittee.
Now he is ardently pro-Israel.
He thinks we should give them military aid unconditionally.
In the beginning, he was in fact in favor of the war with Iran.
And that's against the interest of 80% of Democratic voters that now view Israel unfavorably.
So do you think that Hakeem Jeffrey should have met with Jared Kushner?
And do you think that Moskowitz was being put in charge of that committee when he has opposing
viewpoints to 80% of Democratic voters was a mistake?
Okay, Jeffery should not have met with Jared Kushner.
that meeting serve no purpose.
And Jared Moskowitz says no business being chair of the committee that will help shape
policy towards Israel.
The Democratic voters, not just progressive voters, Democratic voters and voters in the country
are pretty clear.
They want us to do less with Israel, not more.
I am for zeroing out aid and no military sales that are killing civilians.
But even if you take someone who is not as progressive as me, they certainly do not want us to
integrating our military with Israel or developing closer ties with Israel and Netanyahu.
And so the hooting that Moskowitz, there is just a slap in the face of Democratic primary voters.
So Congressman Kana, I really want to understand what the end game is here for the Democratic
Party because shortly after Jeffries met with Kushner, Jared Moskowitz was chosen to
serve as the ranking member of the Foreign Affairs Committee's Middle East and North Africa
subcommittee, right? And that's a problem because Moskowitz has an agenda. And if people don't
know what his agenda is, let's hear what he has previously stated in regard to unconditional
support to a tiny little irrelevant country in the Middle East. Let's take a look at that video.
What has been your impression of this conversation amongst your colleagues about the differences
between offensive and defensive aid to Israel and potentially choosing to condition
aid to Israel based on them following international law?
There's been a debate up here for a long period of time on offensive weapons, okay?
And I think that debate is appropriate.
I don't have a problem with that.
It's interesting that the debate now is going on to defensive weapons because for the longest time,
the folks that were against offensive weapons said, but we're for protecting civilians.
And that's why we're for continuing either funding for Iron Dome or other fad missile systems,
things of that nature.
And on specific conditioning offensive, where do you stand on that?
On conditioning it on the basis of Israel following international law offensive?
Yeah, I'm not, I mean, I'm getting very consistent.
I'm not for conditioning military aid to our allies, okay, which is why I've always supported.
Regardless of national law.
Which is why I've always supported aid to Ukraine and other things that nature.
So, you know, I'm not changing my position.
Regardless of international law.
Well, they're a US ally.
So so long as you're a US.
So the law doesn't apply?
What's that?
Does the law not apply to allies?
Well, our law applies.
But as long as there an ally of ours, I'm not for conditioning weapons to Israel.
It's fascinating that he brings up the importance of protecting civilians because our military
leadership in a non-conquer statement to Secretary of War Pete Hegseth mentioned that our
depletion of missile interceptors in the war against Iran, which we're fighting on behalf of
Israel, of course, is making it difficult to protect the U.S. homeland. We're 40 trillion.
dollars in debt, as we all know, the bond market is an utter chaos as a result of our
$40 trillion in debt.
We are bankrolling Israel's war in the Middle East.
So my question to you is, as we bleed out here in the United States, as our country gets
destroyed on behalf of our precious ally, why aren't there Democrats fighting the idea of someone
like Jared Moskowitz being the head of this incredibly important subcommittee where, you know,
In the House, I mean, he would get to make decisions about what even gets heard on the House
floor in regard to foreign policy decisions or resolutions or legislation.
So is there anyone in the Democratic Party who's willing to stand up and actually fight
colleagues like Moskowitz who clearly have, you know, their heads somewhere else when it comes to what they're concerned about?
Clearly not the United States.
He's clearly concerned about another country.
So is anyone up in arms about that within the Democratic Party?
The chair of that subcommittee, I've said it publicly.
I've criticized him.
And I believe that the progressive caucus should mobilize around it.
And we went back the house, hopefully.
Greg Meeks is going to have to run to be chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee.
The chair gets to appoint the subcommittee chairs.
But we can make this very clear to whoever's running in that chair's race that we expect
for the subcommittee that they have someone who reflects the view of the Democratic primary
base and that the progressives have a big problem with Moscow's being there. Certainly that
will be my view in the progressive caucus. So Representative Kana, I'm going to go along with
that question. It feels like there's a culture of compliance in the Democratic Party in D.C.
So AOC was asked about Jared Kushner, Hakeem Jeffries meeting the other day.
She gave a perplexing answer, but refused to criticize Hakeem Jeffries for it.
Now, I suspect that she was not happy with that meeting.
So I don't understand why she wouldn't criticize it other than this culture of compliance.
It feels like oftentimes you're literally the only person in the Democratic Party that's willing to criticize Democratic leaders,
or any other Democrat, what is it in the water in Washington that makes it seem like it's
an unthinkable thought to criticize, to not agree with another Democrat?
It's not like the muskirts of the world and Hillary Shulton have a problem with it, they're
bashing the hell out of Abdul al-Said.
But when we ask our side to oppose the establishment side, other than you, we can't hear
a single word out of any other Democrat.
So it's a literal question about what is it in the culture that makes them so deathly
afraid to criticize Democratic leadership?
Well, I have the scars to show it for criticizing Democratic leadership for being the first
to call for Schumer to step aside for having criticized things like the Moskowitz appointment
or the meeting with Jared Kushner.
Look, anyone, every time there has to be a balance in that you're trying to get legislation
across and to get legislation across, you obviously need your colleagues. And if you are abrasive,
or if you make too many enemies, then you're never going to get anything done. But obviously,
I got the Epstein files done with Thomas Massey. I'm not bragging, but my point is you may be
able to go further on the limb in at least criticizing and disagreeing without compromising the ability
to get things done. And I try to make it not personally. I try to make it about the issues and call
the issues where they are. But it's a balance because these are people who you need votes from,
support from, to get anything done. Yeah, not unless you're president. And then you don't need
him at all. That's my theory. Okay. So now let's move on to another important issue. So again,
we've got all the Democrats fighting harder against Abdul al-Saeed than then even the Republicans are.
Meanwhile, Laurel L. Umar is out there calling people like our candidate Angie Nixon in Florida,
a ghetto black B word, among many other hideous things. And she's, you know, said viciously bigoted things against Muslims,
other black folks. And, and even Debbie Wasserman Schultz is apparently disgusting.
excuse for a Jew, according to Laura Lumer.
So she said even anti-Semitic things worse than anything that anyone on the left has said.
So what is going on with the hypocrisy of American media where they, and Laura Lumer meets
with a president, gets people fired in the White House, where the media thinks that's no big
deal, not even an issue you should ask about once.
But if Hassan Pike or a streamer that has no power in Washington associates with a candidate,
You should ask about that two million times.
So is our media deeply biased?
And otherwise, what drives this enormous and obvious double standard?
Well, you're absolutely right.
I mean, look, there's been the normalization of hate speech on the right.
It's sort of baked in that of course Laura Lumer says these things.
And that's just how it goes.
every Republican on television should be asked.
Do you condemn what Laura Lumer has said?
Do you agree with the language he used against Angie Nixon?
And Democrats need to be making a bigger deal.
I just answered a question about Hassan Piker and I started talking about Laura Lumer.
I mean, how is that not the big issue that you've got extremist right wing podcasters or people like
Lord Lomer are meeting with the president or using the most vile kinds of black race?
racism. And so the other thing is, you know, I go on TV as you know a lot. And I never get asked about
something that Ben Shapiro said or something that Bill Maher said or something that Megan Kelly
said or something that Dr. Carlson said, you know, that I've had conversations with Emma.
Sean Ryan said, I'm not I'm not disparaging these people. I've gone on a lot of podcasts.
A lot of podcasters say things that are shocking. And not once have I said, well, Roe,
you went on that podcast and what do you think of this person's views?
And yet, Hassan Piker, I get asked on every other day.
It's a total double standard.
Congressman Kavana, would you say that it's fair to argue that the very Democrats
who are attacking Hassan Piker as a way of destroying Abdullah Syed's chances of winning
that Senate seat in Michigan are hoping that the Republican, Mike Rogers, wins that
set its seat as opposed to El Sayyad?
I think there is a vocal minority that would rather see Abdul Saeed lose and the progressive wing
not be vindicated as winning a swing seat.
Then have Abdul win, have us get another Senate seat, possibly the majority, and have the
progressives take credit for it.
Because see, the win is such a blow to the establishment.
last remnant is electability.
Iran has shown that he could be an extraordinary mayor and competent and charming and
people seem to like him more.
Every day he's there, but they can resort to this thing.
Well, he got elected in New York City.
If Abdul wins in Michigan, they lose their last point, which is, well, can a progressive
ever win a swing district, a swing state?
And that is why he's such a threat to their entire theory of the case.
But there's the case.
Look, that's fair.
But I have to push back on you because it's not a small vocal minority.
I mean, Ken Martin, the head of the Democratic National Committee, is engaging in these attacks that hurt the chances of a Democrat winning a Senate seat in Michigan.
The head of the Democratic Party is doing that.
I'd be surprised if I haven't.
Yeah, he did.
He did.
He put out the same statement.
And Ro, we're ignoring the 800 pound gorilla in the room, which is they're getting paid
by A-PAC and the Israeli lobby.
That's why they want to make sure Abdul loses.
And look, I'll ask the form of a question here, because whenever progressives run and
have a chance of winning, the establishment bashes the hell out of them, right?
And they try to help the Republicans defeat the progressives, and they're doing it right in front
of our eyes and the most important race of this cycle, the Michigan Senate race.
And and and but whenever they do that, like if a progressive, if one progressive that was
supporting Bernie Sanders doesn't vote for Hillary Clinton, the media goes ape over it, right?
They're like, oh my God, they're betrayers, they're betraying the Democratic Party.
So isn't it fair for progressives to ask, aren't these establishment Democrats, traitors,
Aren't they betraying Democratic voters by saying, by trying to hurt the Democratic candidate
in the most important election of this cycle?
And isn't it time that progressives organized in Congress and fought their precious colleagues
who are trying to get them to lose as we speak?
Well, yeah, I mean, we should call them out.
We should call out any Democrat who is not lined up enthusiastically behind Abdul.
And you see to your point that it's more than personal, right?
Because Haley Stevens actually was quite gracious after she lost.
And she said, okay, I'm going to endorse Abdul.
And then for that one week, I thought, okay, maybe everything is going to work out.
But obviously, it's not just what Haley Stevens personally thinks or what she may want to do.
There are larger structural forces, interests funded by APEC, funded by other corporate interests,
that do not want to see Abdul win because of everything that will represent.
But you know what?
What we should do instead of focusing on just calling out individuals to say,
this is the system that Abdul is fighting.
And I actually think it has a ricochet effect where it fuels Abdul's campaign and he's going to win.
I fundamentally believe that voting for him will be ultimately a vote against this corrupt system.
If he does, he'll instantly be the most powerful center in the country because he'll
He'll be the only one that defeated the Republican Party and the Democratic Party and all of mainstream media by himself, with almost no one other than you going to help him.
To be fair, Bernie and some others have helped him as well.
All right, last question real quick.
NBC News crew got attacked by settlers in the West Bank, and everybody acted surprised.
After you already got attacked, CNN already got attacked, what is all the surprise about?
And what can we do about these absolutely out of control settlers?
Well, one thing we could do is cut off all their funding, but apparently in Washington,
that's an unthinkable crime.
So what was your reaction to that story?
Well, I usually don't like being self-referential.
And when I went to Palestine, I wanted the stories to be about Palestinians.
But of course, as you know, extremist settlers detained our van.
I mean, they blocked our van from exiting.
They used M-4s brandishing them about, held us for 75 minutes, and they were using American
weapons to hold us.
The IDF took their side.
We had to call the American embassy.
It took 75 minutes to Claire.
And I referred to that after this NBC story came out because the Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Niyah said we were lying about the incident.
The Israeli ambassador said that.
It was called a publicity stunt.
And candidly, there were some in the media, not everyone, but some in the media.
who went along with the narrative.
Oh, they kind of do this just to get publicity.
Well, no, it turns out that if you're just in the West Bank,
if you're just in Palestine and you're just driving around or at an event,
you will be attacked by extremist settlers in a pretty high probability.
And what happened to the NBC journalist, I think,
in the scale and the horror with which it happened,
is opening people's eyes that this was not some kind of publicity stunt.
This is daily life for Palestinians.
And it's inhuman.
And that we are participating in something that is inhuman in the West Bank.
And that is why we need to cut off aid and stop these military cells.
I mean, I get that, yes, let's focus on America.
But there's something beyond that, which is morality.
What is happening there is just not moral.
And anyone goes there would see that with their own eyes.
All right, Representative Roecona, a rare person working inside Congress and fighting for Democratic voters, which you almost never see.
So we appreciate you joining us and we appreciate you answering these questions.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you both.
All right.
Okay, guys, we want to take a quick break when we come back, a lot more news.
Back on TYT, let me read YouTube members first.
Lasers go Pew Pugh.
It says independence and moderates make up the majority of the left.
Really good people.
The liberal politicians are another story.
So I don't know what you mean by liberal politicians, but the establishment Democrats don't represent Democratic voters at all, not 1%.
They represent their donors, not exclusively Israel. Israel is their top donor, so they kiss their ass the most.
But they behind while you're not looking, they betray you on every issue, including big pharma, big oil, the defense contractors.
They funnel trillions of dollars to those people.
and they probably laugh at you behind the scenes and go,
ha ha, they think we're Democrats and we're on their side
as they shiv you and stab you and stab you from the back.
Okay, that's why we like Roe,
because he's the very, very few people who doesn't do that.
George Morris writes, and I pray,
I live long enough to see the orange man in his cabinet clowns are held accountable.
I hope that Trump and his family are arrested for corruption.
Don't hold your breath, brother, but I hear you.
Delivery ghost says the stock market is not the economy.
The stock market is a gauge of 90%.
rich people's money moving around, the normal person owns a crumb of that at best.
That is factual and correct.
Make it make sense, says as a super chat now, as a Matt as I am at Besson, pales to the anger I have
for this disaster that 535 members of Congress have created over the 50 plus years.
Last I checked to control the purse, glad we pay them $174,000 a year.
You are right to be mad.
the people in Congress with few notable exceptions are have all betrayed you.
They work completely for the wealthy and the powerful and their job is to screw you over,
steal your money and give it to them. We'll be back.

So J.D. Vance went and participated in a humiliation ritual in front of the Jewish Republican
caucus of some sort. These are donors and he went to go kiss their ass and promised that he'll
work for Israel instead of America. But at the end, they were insufficiently impressed with
his smooching. Of course. And they demanded that he groveled even more. And so they were upset
with him. So the whole story is amazing. And for that, we've been.
got Anna. Well, for the Zionists, you're either a slave or an enemy. And since J.D. Vance made a few
tepid criticisms of Israel and their genocidal intent in the Middle East, he will forever be an enemy
to the Zionist, regardless of how much he tries to ingratiate himself. And he tried real
hard to ingratiate himself. This was supposed to be a closed door talk or speech before the
Republican Jewish coalition, but the Daily Wire secretly recorded it and released it the entire
thing. So we have some sound to share with you of what the vice president had to say. Now,
Janie Vance started off by bitching and moaning about Hassan Piker and pandered to how desperately
Zionists want to ensure that Abdul al-Said, the Democrat in a Senate race in Michigan,
doesn't win. And so that's what you're about to hear next. Now, let me set it up
a little more for you so you understand the context.
So in the following clip, Vance basically clutches his pearls over what Abdul al-Said had
to say following a horrific attack on a synagogue in Michigan.
Now the man who carried out the attack on the synagogue had lost four of his family members
in Israeli attacks on Lebanon, and then he carried out this horrific attack on the synagogue.
Abdul al-Said responded by discussing how blowback works.
And if you're an adult, you understand how blowback works.
But if you're a Zionist, you think that you're not entitled to any blowback.
You get to do whatever you want with absolutely no blowback.
Now attacking a synagogue makes absolutely no sense.
If you're angry at the Israeli government, that's one thing.
But attacking a synagogue is stupid.
And Abdul al-Siyadh was clear about that.
But he also discussed blowback and how a cycle of violence just perpetuate
perpetuates more and more violence.
Zionists were upset about that and Jady Vance pander to them on that issue.
So let's take a look.
Inaecologically, philosophically, what is going on in Al-Saiat's right?
Okay, because he apologized for the motivations of the killer who almost, I should say,
they got almost killed a lot of your shoulder.
He campaigns around with this guy who defended the 9-11 massacre, which was almost 25 years ago,
or he can remember that soon.
And then I sort of think, well, he also was, he got into this obsessive,
loke DEI thing back in the late 20s, in the early 2020s.
And what I realized is, this is a guy, unlike literally every Jewish person I know,
every American I know, with a few very, very obvious exceptions,
this is a guy who looks at you and says,
you're a good person if you belong to this ethnicity.
And you're a bad person if you belong to that ethnicity.
And the purpose of politics is to punish the bad guys and reward in his view, the good guys.
And I think that's a really despicable way to look at your fellow innocent Jewish kids who almost lose their lives and empathize with the killer.
Unless you see those people as less than human.
Oh, that's so deeply ironic.
He's talking to a room of Zionists who salivate over the mass slaughter of innocence in the Middle East on behalf of their precious Israel.
And he has the audacity to make it seem as though Abdul al-Said is that type of person?
No, that was a master class in projection.
Amazing.
Like the people he's talking to are in favor of the genocide.
So they think it doesn't matter that we slaughtered 23,000 Palestinian kids because they're subhuman.
They're not at the same level as us.
We judge based purely on ethnicity, right?
And then he somehow takes that and projects it onto the person,
who's fighting the genocide, who's saying respect Jews, Muslims, Christians all the same.
That room is filled with vicious Zionists who think it's no big deal to murder Muslims.
And Christians, like anybody, anyone who stands in their way.
As long as their beloved Israel does it, right?
Israel's a lot of murder anyone they like.
So this is, all of this is just 100% pandering.
He's like, give me your money.
I swear to God, I'll work for Israel.
That's the translation of what he just said.
And by the way, in that part, and later in the immigration part, he's basically saying,
look, guys, it's hard to defend Israel, but we can project the hate on the Muslims.
You like that, right?
You like that.
You want us to hate Muslims, right?
I'm good at that.
We shouldn't have let those dirty Muslims into the country, right?
And the room's like, yeah, that's right.
That's right.
Now I can't believe that they would judge anyone based on their ethnicity, but make sure
that when we give you the money that you use it to spread hatred against Muslims.
You understand?
Boy!
And apparently they thought Vance didn't understand enough.
Keep going, Anna.
I can understand why Vance wanted this to be a closed door speech or talk.
I can understand that.
Because he didn't want, you know, like the Israelis will use a tape against you if you're
on tape having sex in a demeaning way like this, so.
No, but honestly, Jake, it's hilarious.
to me because on one hand, you have Vance, who I suspect, leaked stories to the New York Times
to make himself out to be like the anti-war person who's trying to like pump the brakes on
the administration when it comes to their disgusting, depraved foreign policy.
But behind closed doors, he's telling the Zionist, like, I'll do whatever you want,
I'll do whatever you want, yeah, let's kill more Muslims. Let's kill more. Let's bomb and wipe out more
Christian villages in southern Lebanon.
That's what he's telling them behind closed doors when he thinks no one else is listening.
But, you know, we've got the Daily Wire recording you and putting this out there.
So we know exactly what you think.
So with that-
By the way, the Daily Wire does that because they're like, look, he's only 99% our dog.
He's not 100% our dog.
We caught him.
He has disobeyed some slight orders.
How dare he?
By the way, we don't control any.
Well, we're going to get to that in just a second.
But before we do, I just want to show you who J.D. Vance really is. So why don't we put up that
photo with him and one of the big donors to Donald Trump that he is now, there we go.
So that's what J.D. Vance really is, okay, despite the leaks to the New York Times, despite
this like the skin suit he wears is the anti-war skin suit, don't be mistaken by that, okay?
He was manufactured by Peter Thiel.
Peter Thiel is a big time Zionist, and he will do what Peter Thiel demands of him.
And there he is standing next to Miriam Edelson, who I suspect is gonna be another one of his donors.
So good luck in 2028, Vance.
Well, Peter Thiel created him, but now he has new mommies and daddies, including Miriam
Madelson, who he has appeared with many times, had many private dinners with, and has raised a lot of money from.
And if you think he doesn't serve the money, that's hilarious.
So Vance also pandered to the Zionist hatred of Europe.
Let's listen to that.
The Israelis have been a great part for a number of things, whether it's midnight
or intelligence collection technology sharing.
Oh yeah, they're intelligent.
However, sometimes we do have different views on things.
And there are a couple of different ways that I put it.
So first of all, I would say that it's purely transaction.
And the same way that I would say their alliance with the UK is purely transactional.
I'm very much a forward policy realist.
I think that one government has to pursue its interest.
Another government has to pursue its interest.
Look, there are a few countries, Israel, the UK,
where there's a much deeper cultural symbiosis in harmony than exists with most other countries.
I like a lot of nations, but I don't feel the same way when I walk through the streets of,
let's say, you know, Berlin that I do.
want to walk through the streets of Jerusalem.
I'm a Christian and to meet something different to me
in the same way that I think that there's a culture
of the United States in the UK.
Well, okay, so two things out of that in it.
First of all, yeah, there is a difference
if you walk in the streets of Berlin or Jerusalem.
As a Christian, you won't be spit on in Berlin,
but you will be spit on in Jerusalem.
So there's a big, big difference.
And that's not a little thing.
We've had Israelis come on here and we've had
Nuns, Christian nuns come on here and say, oh, it's very real.
People, they spit on Christians all the time, right?
So yeah, there's that difference.
But is he trying to say that Israeli culture is better than Western culture than European culture?
That is what he's saying.
Okay, grovel away, little boy.
But he made it that, if you missed it, that's where he made the giant mistake from the point of view of Ben Shapiro and Israel first.
He said, you know, sometimes our interests might, since we're two different countries,
might diverge a little bit.
And they're like, how dare you?
Israel's interests are the only interest America has.
Dog!
Okay, and so they're super pissed on him.
You heard it for yourself, that tiny little bit.
Sometimes it might diverge just 1%.
And they're furious about it.
He's not enough of a puppy for them.
So Vance also addressed the elephant in the room, you know, the big elephant.
you know, how much young Americans load the parasitic alliance that the United States has with Israel.
Take a look.
There is a growing suspicion of the U.S.-Israel relationship.
And I think my view is what we have to do is articulating why this is in the best interest in the United States of America
and actually get out there and talk about the ways in which it is in the best interest in the United States of America.
So to take a very obviously table, we're working with the Israelis on some extremely top secret technology
that is very, very important for the North American missile and shield.
Because I love my kids, because all of you in this room, we love our kids, we love our grandkids,
we want to treat missiles in this world of the United States of America. We're safe.
We spend a trillion dollars a year already on the military. We're about to spend more $1.5 trillion a year.
And we're the ones who provided and continue to pay for,
for the Iron Dome Missile Interceptor System for Israel.
And this clown and the rest of the pro-Zionists, I shouldn't even say pro-Zionists, who knows
what they actually believe, these politicians who are funded by the Israel lobby, you
know, they're paid puppets for Israel, they keep saying over and over again that our
country's military, our ability to research, our ability to innovate, non-existent.
We're all morons.
We can't do anything.
We spend all this money on it.
Apparently we need the precious Israelis who we give everything to to help us develop
things.
Are you kidding me right now?
Yeah, you know, it's kind of, they lean into that stereotype.
It's so sick.
They're like, oh, well, you know, the Israelis are so smart.
So smart, we're also dumb.
But the Americans are stupid and dumb and we can't invent anything on our own.
Then why do they want any of our technology?
Why do they want to merge our technologies?
We can't invent anything and they're so smart and precious and amazing.
Look at how dumb that talking point is.
Oh, Israel has some technology and what?
If we wanted it, they wouldn't sell it to us?
No, because they're not interested in money and they wouldn't sell it to anyone.
Of course they'd sell it to us.
Second of all, we could say, hey, we've given you over $300 billion.
Of course you're gonna work with us on the technology.
Otherwise we won't give you the $4 billion.
We give you every single year, right?
Oh no, that has never occurred to us.
You know what, we should just give away one and a half trillion dollars in our defense budget to get their incredible technology on one thing.
Come on, man.
He's insulting your intelligence.
And now I go to the first part of what he said, that's the worst of all.
He's like, he says to them, now, this is the propaganda we should do.
So he says, we got to tell Americans, and basically he's promising, I'll do this propaganda for you,
that all the money we give to Israel and merging our technology and data in the military
actually helps America.
It is, oh, it's not helping Israel.
No, I know, they took $320 billion off of us as a favor.
Look at how dumb he thinks you are.
100%.
That you're going to believe that.
If that's so true, what, you guys should go at TPA USA events or anywhere JD
Vance is speaking and ask him.
Well, if it's such a big favor to us that we gave Israel $320 billion, why don't we return the favor?
Have them give us $320 billion.
That way they'll be much, much better off according to what you're saying, right?
No, nobody's that stupid, it's obvious Israeli propaganda, and if it was true, we are very happy to get the $320 billion back.
Are they gonna give it?
No, of course not.
Milk that cow, milk that American cow, right?
It's not like we're even human.
Those utters are chafed, okay?
There is nothing left or $40 trillion in debt.
Our country's bleeding out on behalf of this tiny,
irrelevant terrorist state.
And this guy, and by the way, Jank,
he's not making these types of arguments publicly.
He's making these types of arguments in his mind
behind closed doors when no one else other than
Zionists are listening.
Yeah, I promise I'll do your propaganda
and convince America.
The war I'm theoretically against that I leaked to the New York Times, I actually will paint it
as like a big favor to America.
I'll say, oh, thank God that Israelis got us to go into that war.
Our alliance with Israel has helped us more than it's helped Israel.
You know, Israeli intel is top notch though, right?
The Israeli intel about Iraq having weapons of mass destruction, full proof, so good.
Wait, Anna, did that get us to attack their number one enemy at the time?
It did actually, did.
And it was fake.
It was, yeah.
That's so weird, because I was told by every liar in media and every liar in Washington
that they give us such great intelligence.
That's why we should give them hundreds of billions of dollars for free and do trillions
of dollars awards for them.
Because they're such humanitarians, I mean, ignore the genocide and all the money they stole
from us by bribing people like J.D. Vance.
18 of our soldiers are dead and hundreds more are wounded due to this.
war on Iran that we are waging on behalf of Israel.
How many IDF soldiers have been killed in the Iran war?
Zero.
How much is Israel spending on the Iran war?
Nothing close to what we're spending, and we're 40 trillion in debt.
But anyway, let's get back to what Vance had to say.
Now look, what would any Zionist conference be without endless perpetual victimhood?
And that's what he addresses in the next clip.
Take a look.
see rising in the United States of America is actually coming from people who are bringing ancient
ethnic hatreds in the United States.
The rising anti-semitism you see, and I'm not saying you don't see it amongst some podcasters
you obviously do.
I mean, again, the Fuentes character who, you know, really does hate Jews and also, by the way,
really hates me and my family's here, a good company.
He, like, that's real, but it's not really.
common among most of our fellow citizens. And what you see is the worst anti-Semitism grows up when you
allow the importation of large groups of people who bring their ethnic rivalries of the United
States. Not correct. Not correct. Complete and utter BS, okay? I mean, it's just amazing. Is immigration
ever going to not be the scapegoat for all of the Republicans woes? And I'm talking about the politicians
here. Really, you're gonna point to immigration and blame that on rising anti-Semitism,
which I'm just gonna be honest with you. I'm not buying the whole narrative about rising
anti-Semitism because people are intentionally, Zionists in particular, are intentionally
conflating anti-Israel rhetoric, which I'm all about. I jump in it with anti-Jewish rhetoric.
No, they're doing that conflation on purpose. Israel,
is a foreign country.
Their government and military are committing acts against humanity, okay?
Atrocities, genocide, they're wiping out dozens of villages, including Christian villages
in southern Lebanon.
They're bombing the crap out of Syria, Yemen.
I mean, it's just, it goes on and on and on.
And guess what?
We get to criticize that as much as we want, especially when we're the ones funding it.
Yeah, so are there real anti-Semites in the country?
Of course, is it the most overhyped thing on planet Earth?
Of course.
And why is that?
Because along with the real cases is an enormous amount of radical Zionists claiming that
seeing a Palestinian flag is anti-Semitic.
Like a bunch of liars pretending to be victims as they lash out with their power and they
try to actually attack anyone who's in favor of peace, and that would criticize isn't.
They're not dealing with actual anti-seventhomans.
They're the bigots who are trying to destroy Americans who would dare to disagree with Israel.
Okay, so there, if you weren't clear enough on what he was saying there, the translation is,
the real problem is those Muslim immigrants, okay?
And don't worry, this room that's full of racist and bigots, I will work for you after you pay me, okay, everybody, pay up,
and then I'll try to keep out the Muslim immigrants from this country with their ethnic hatreds.
So he says to a room filled with people who are filled with hatred in their hearts for Muslims and anyone that isn't Israeli.
Now, it's important that you know that's the Republican Jewish coalition.
If he spoke to a room full of, you know, regular Jewish Democratic voters, they would massively disagree with them.
And they do not have that hatred in their heart.
And as I'll remind you again, 63% of Jewish Americans are against the current Israeli government.
The people in that room are right wing Israeli supporters.
That's not the same as right wing American supporters, much, much, much more extreme.
They support the fascism inside Israel.
They're deeply racist and bigoted, almost every single person in that room, who gives money
so that we could further fund genocides and endless wars.
So he's saying to them, I will take your bigotry and multiply it for you, and I will try to
to attack Muslims on your behalf, because I know how much you hate them.
And I'm here to serve you as your dog and servant.
But as you're gonna see now, no, not good enough.
So look, as they bitch about supposed anti-Semitism because of criticism toward Israel,
why don't we actually check in with Israel?
Because I thought this was kind of fascinating.
This was a big update today in regard to some of the commentary you can hear among
Israelis in Israel.
Three dozen Israeli generals, two Israeli prime ministers, and many others, this is a graphic
one, signed a letter saying Israel is committing terrorism and ethnic cleansing in the
West Bank.
You want to know why?
It's because that's what they're doing.
They liken what Israel is doing to the horrors committed by the Nazis during the Holocaust.
You want to know why?
Because it's true.
And I'm sure they're all anti-Semites, right?
though they're Israeli generals and Israeli prime ministers, and we've been reporting this stuff
to you from Israeli human rights groups and Israeli press.
But our lying press is 10,000 times of propagandists for Israel than the Israeli presses.
So they will bury all of this, never tell you about it, and pretend that anyone who objects
to what Israel is doing is a vicious anti-Semite who must be destroyed on behalf of their beloved
Israel, right? And so, and you see Vance there, I swear to you, I will serve you.
you and destroy all of your enemies in American.
But now that's not just Muslim Americans, you're crazy?
That's now 60% of Americans.
So JD Vance is saying, oh yeah, if I got it, I'll crush them for you.
Was it good enough?
I can't wait to get to Sid Rosenberg.
So Laura Lumer said something very similar to this, all of Israel first did.
But let me show you a good representative example.
This is some random talk show host in New York.
And he says, and of course he's Israel first.
And he says, my honest assessment of Vice President Vance tonight, he's a president, he's
He was not strong enough on Israel.
In fact, he referred to Israel as one of our best allies.
One of?
He had a chance to hammer Tucker Carlson and Megan Kelly, but instead spent all his time defending
Joe Rogan over Nick Quentes.
He also blamed immigration for a lot of the anti-seminism in our country today.
Silly.
Look, he's still better than any Democrat candidate, but I don't think he wowed the strong Jews
in the room tonight.
You guys are whining about anti-Semitism.
While donating to the vice president of the United States and controlling him completely,
along with the president, along with 94% of Congress.
But you think you're the victim?
You're the poor little victim?
They got to milk that victimhood to justify what they do, right?
Okay, but let's break down all of that.
So if you don't support the genocide and buying off American politicians,
apparently you're a weaker Jew, according to Sid Rosenberg,
And they love to hide behind their fellow Jewish citizens who they don't agree with them.
And then the minute they get a chance, they're like self-haters, weak Jews, you don't even slaughter like us, us radical Zionists that love genocide.
You're weak and like other human beings.
Well, there's tons of wonderful Jewish Americans.
In fact, a great majority of them.
They're not all vicious animals like you, Sid.
monsters who love genocide and love slaughtering 23,000 kids.
That's not strong.
That's what animals do.
That's what barbaric genocide supporters do.
Okay.
And then he says, what do you mean one of our best allies?
It has to be number one.
How dare he say that we might be only top three?
Neil boy!
He says to him.
And I'm sure Vance afterwards licked Rosenberg.
boots. And but the one that you, I want to make sure you don't miss in that is he said he also
blamed immigration for a lot of the anti-Semitism in our country today. Silly. So he's saying,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, it's not the immigrants. It's Americans. Americans are all
anti-Semites. Call them all anti-Semites. Otherwise, the strong Jews will not give you the money
for you to run in 2028.
But, Jank, Zionists are also huge proponents of immigration, because where are all those people in the Middle East going to go after Israel takes over their country, their land?
I mean, it all goes together.
Are you kidding me, the Israelis would take the five and a half million Palestinians in occupied territories and park them in Kentucky without a second stall?
Of course.
They would do that in one second flat.
Look what's happening.
I mean look, this is, I made this point on the show before, okay, for all of the people in Europe,
all the people in the UK who are upset about mass migration, what do you think leads to that?
You go in and you destroy these countries, people are obviously going to flee as refugees,
they're going to look for safety, they're going to go to other countries.
They don't go into Israel though, notice that.
Like Israel is at the heart of all of this conflict, war, genocide, slaughter in the Middle
I mean, how many failed states do we have in the Middle East now?
If you guys don't know, Israel prefers to have dictators in the region.
Why?
Number one, it's because they're easier to control.
If you have a democracy, the people of Egypt are not going to vote for an Israel friendly
government, okay?
But if you have a dictator like Cece, he'd go, here boy, here's some money, and if you
don't take the money, we murder you and call you a terrorist.
And all the media in America will say terrorists, terrorists, terrorists.
And thank God, Israel murdered him.
So now you are our servant dog, okay?
And so they do that with almost all the dictators in the Middle East.
And then they ironically turn around and go, we're the only democracy in the Middle East.
So you have to support us.
You're not a democracy.
You viciously occupy and oppressed five and a half million Palestinians.
What, are they not human?
Do they get a vote in Israel?
Do they get a vote in your democracy?
No, they don't, because you're not a democracy.
You're a dictatorship, a fascist one.
And so then they get and go, hey, look at all these dictators we bought off in the Middle
East.
You see, that's why you can't support the dirty Muslims.
They don't even live in democracy.
They're not advanced and civilized.
And then those traders, the leaders of a lot of those countries, then turn around and
go, you're right, we're dirty Muslims.
Oh, we love dictatorships and Israel's right about everything they say about Muslims.
And then Morocco goes, oh, would you like to work together?
to try to embarrass Spain because they wouldn't go along with your genocide.
Oh yeah, we'll rush 60,000 people in there and a whole bunch of them all will die.
And then Israel will get their dogs in America to get.
So look at those Muslim immigrants invading Europe.
All the Muslims are dirty.
And the Moroccan leader is like, yes, I got paid to betray my own.
I got the Israelis to call my own citizens dogs and invaders.
and imply that they're beneath everyone else.
So these are the dirty games that Israel plays.
And JD Vance signed up for 99% of them.
And it was a huge mistake.
Because afterwards, Lumer, all of Israel first,
Sid Rosembourg, all of them, not good enough.
You were simply a servant and not a slave.
And we ordered a slave.
Love to see it.
I'm very pleased to know that he has
terrible political instincts, because I didn't want Peter Thiel's boy to be the next president
of the United States.
So he just put a nail in the coffin today, which is fantastic.
I'm really happy about it.
And by the way, everyone should ask J.D. Vance, do you agree with people in that room,
including Sid Rosenberg, who think that all Americans are anti-Semites?
Well, it depends on what Peter Thiel paid him to think.
But I'm sure that since he's associating with these genocidal maniacs, the press will ask
about a 24-7.
Do you denounce the people who support killing 23,000 children in Gaza?
Oh, right, no one in the press will ever ask that question, because the press works for Israel.
So they will ask about Hassan Piker two million more times, but Laura Luma, a vicious, racist,
and bigot, Nanyahu murdered 23,000 kids, all of the radical Zionists in this country
that are pro-genocide.
Don't denounce any of them.
Don't even ask about it.
Don't even ask about it.
Otherwise, you're an anti-Semite and you'll be destroyed next.
But remember, the radical Zionists in this country have no control, no influence at all.
In fact, they're just mainly the victims.
They're barely trying to survive in this country.
Oh, that's weird because I think at this meeting, they gave millions of dollars, didn't they?
Because a lot of victims are walking around with millions of dollars flowing out of their pockets and bribing politicians left and right for them to serve their interests and not the interests of any voters, right?
That must be because they're victims.
Okay, so guys, we're going to do something out of order here.
I hope Anna's okay with it.
We got to cover the story with Ban Shapiro attack.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
I don't want to rush it.
No, no, no, no.
We're not going to do it here.
So we're going to do a segment and then Operation Joy.
Okay, because I got to respond.
There's no way around it.
So we're gonna do one extra segment when we come back, and then we'll do Operation Joy.
So in the meanwhile, last thing here for this show, somebody on Super Chat, RM, JT-W-8 RAS,
what happened to your segment with Dan Levitard show?
Did they not release it?
No, they're releasing it on Thursday, guys.
I appreciate you caring and asking about it.
And remember when we do these segments, almost always we'll put it up on t.yt.com.
up on t yt.com slash press so you can check it out for yourself. And you know, a bunch of people
wrote in again about how at least somebody's willing to speak the truth. I appreciate you guys for
saying that. You guys are great. And yeah, as you can tell here, guys, we are unapologetic.
We will never bend and we will never bow. Love you guys. See you in a second.
