You're listening to the 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. First, Jane Cougar and John Ida Roller with you guys. Big show ahead. So we've got the oil companies making a killing off of this war while taking our subsidies. We'll talk about that later in the program. We are going to talk about Moroccans going into Spain.

Maybe a surprising reason why they're doing it and a country that's might be involved. You'll never guess who it is, obviously, Nicaragua. We'll come back to that in a minute. And then the Magna Civil War continues also over the war. People are really starting to lose their patience in the right wing over this war and more updates from the absolutely critical race in Michigan between America and Israel. All right, John, we're gonna get started first on this amazing issue in Morocco, so let me handle that one, all right? Okay. Okay. So we've had 50,000 immigrants

pour in from Morocco to Spain in their promise called Quetta that they control. And 34 have already died. Interestingly, half of already returned. I'm going to tell you why all this happened, give you a couple of reasons, and a surprising country that might be involved. Now if you're thinking, hey, is that the same country we're always talking about? Well, we'll find out in a minute, isn't it? Okay, so first, let me show you what's going on here. So you have a sense of how this is working, and then I want to tell you the reasons behind it. So look at quite on a map here. So even though it is part of Spain, it's actually in North Africa. And so it's right next to Morocco, it's disputed territory. Morocco is said for a long time that they think

it's theirs and so could the Moroccan government have been involved in instigating things there? Well, that's almost certain as we're about to show you. But you see, it's not connect to the mainland in Europe, but since it is part of Spain and hence technically part of Europe, people that are there and have legal citizenship can go anywhere in the EU. So it is a very relevant place to be, especially if you gain citizenship. Okay, now let me show you how people are pouring into that area. And this from the Wall Street, They did a good job of showing you. So the area is up on the north there.

You see the dotted line and a lot of people rushed through on land, but a lot came through the sea and that's where unfortunately 34 of them died. But there's a reason why they went through the sea. I'll explain that to you in a second as well. But did people just wake up one day and go, hey, you know what? I think I'll bum rush Spain. Probably not, more likely to be organized. In fact, there's videos like this that we want to show you.

shows you that literally people were brought in by the truckloads. So people don't randomly walk into a truck and then walk out and then rush into Spain, especially with police that are watching them. So there's no question this is organized and it appears that there's almost no question that the Moroccan government is at least allowing it to happen if not encouraging it to happen, but it does appear to be encouraging. So what are the possible reasons why that might be? Well, that's what I wondered.

I'm sure you're wondering why it's happening all of a sudden. So let's try to dive into it. First, we start with the Wall Street Journal. Space Hold on Quetta has long been a point of friction with Morocco, they explained. Morocco doesn't formally recognize it as Spanish territory. At times it has dropped controls on its side of the border, allowing people to search forward and overwhelm border defenses in Quetta. So this is a tactic that Morocco has used before, including as late as 2021, over different disputes they've had.

So now this is done on a much larger. scaled it in the past, but it's not like the Moroccan governments above it. They've done it before and like I said, almost certainly involved in some way now. So Wall Street Journal continues. This time analysts who study the region suggest Morocco may have loosened its border controls as a warning shot to Spain after Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez showed a desire to improve relations with Algeria, Morocco's historic rival for influence on Africa's northwest coast.

So that's a plausible reason right there might be Algeria. Okay, they're angry about Spain's relationship without chair. But there are other possibilities. Moroccan lawmakers have said the influx was more likely to have been triggered by a recent Spanish Supreme Court ruling that made it more difficult to turn back migrants if they arrived by seat. Okay, so that's a potential reason as to why now. So Spain's court's rule and then people go.

But again, if it was not organized, it would be a little burst and another burst and a couple of people and a couple of families, it may be a couple hundred people. But it certainly would not be an organized 50,000 person basically raid, right? But certainly the Supreme Court decision there in Spain could have made a difference. And definitely in how they arrived through the water, because if they go through the water, there was a special ruling saying that they're more likely to gain citizenship. So that gets into the details of the Spanish court system, but relevant as to how they arrived, but maybe not necessarily as to why they arrived.

So one more from the Wall Street Journal, they explained that still other European countries are nervous. France said it was tightening security at its border with Spain, and Italian Prime Minister Georgia Maloney said her country might consider suspending the Schengen rules. And the Schengen rules would allow people to go anywhere they want within the European Union. So they are saying from now on, at least Italy is beginning to wonder if that should not apply to Spain. France is closing its borders with Spain.

So this has had dramatic effect on Spain and it's hurt Spain in a lot of different ways. So now what, as we told you, one possibility is just Morocco's randomly mad at them and over Algeria. There's a second possibility. Does it involve Kazakhstan? Well, of course it does. No, I'm kidding. Of course it's about Israel.

Unfortunately I didn't think so, but we have overwhelming evidence, which I'm going to share with you in a second. But first, John, before we get into, if it's Israel, what do you make of all of this? Relatively normal, hey, yay, immigrants going to Spain, there's nothing wrong with it, or all of this is problematic. What's your take? I mean, none of it seems like totally normal in any way. The sheer numbers, the fact that it occurred basically inside of a 24-hour period is unlike

anything that I've seen, bearing in mind that I will acknowledge what very few people talking about this topic in the news today won't acknowledge. I know basically nothing about that. I didn't even know that Spain had this sort of city that they control right there. So I'm learning about this in real time as everyone else coming to the story is. But yeah, the fact that it happened in such a short period of time makes some of the explanations as you pointed out hard to believe. Like the Supreme Court decision, okay, I could see that having effects over time. But that would have to filter through. And even if it led to a bunch of people in different countries wanting to come through, they all got there on the same day. That doesn't really make sense to me. None of the, none of those explanations necessarily make sense, just the sheer quantity all coming at once. It's obviously, you know, it's, it's a tragedy that so many people would want to, let alone that dozens would literally die, would be trampled to death or drown in a sea of other people swimming. And that's, I guess, easy for us to focus on the politics and we should because going forward that's what's going

to matter. But that's a horror movie that basically we saw acted out with dozens of people dying just for a chance to get through. That said, you know, you can't overwhelm a small city with more than its actual population of migrants inside of a 24-hour period that clearly isn't tenable. The entire thing is an absolute disaster. It's also fascinating. When you showed that video, like obviously when Donald Trump and Republicans talk about border crossings at our southern border, they often talk about almost exclusively through the lens of this is an organized thing, that they're emptying out their prisons, they're emptying out their asylums, and they're all being sent rather than it being an organic thing where people are coming in every day. And there's

many different reasons for many different populations drawn from decades of American foreign policy and the economic devastation of the area and everything. And it feels like there's more evidence in one day for this one than I've seen presented by Republicans for the American southern border in years of them talking about it. And so yeah, none of those explanations make sense to me. Maybe the next one will though. What do you got? Yeah. So just to point out a couple things there. Yeah. So every accusation is a confession. Right. So if we're organizing or Israel's organizing mass migration events, they might assume that others are as well. Like, oh, well, then Mexico must be doing it. Or Nicaragua must be doing it, but not necessarily.

So all right, so let's dive into what the Israeli papers are talking about. Because if you want to know what's going on, don't turn to American media. They will lie to you 100% on Israel's behalf on almost every instance. But if you go to the Israeli press, they're actually quite terrific. So, and part of the reason why they're so good at getting us information is because a lot of their local officials and politicians and policy makers brag about how well they've done in manipulating certain situations to get what Israel wants at the cost to others, including in this article at Wynet, where they, uh, where they, uh,

The person writing the article is in favor of all the actions that I'm about to read you that Israel is done. Like, add-a-boy, way to get Spain. Now if you're wondering, wait a minute, isn't, wasn't there somebody who said something about Spain? All right, Netanyahu. Remember when he said this? Starting something new can be terrifying.

and so I'm chatey today to slack the Mepest of Mepard from the Mekas

At Gat after that Svard bacharer back again to get against Israel. Who

took the United Israel in the Mets Rererererererer terror. Who's who does this, there's not a shodaf of us on the future of the

area. I don't want to to subpoiet this and the oenot this. I don't mean to have sure to any

aft a new thing. To know, to know a medent with a money to

cash, mehry meh so for those of you who are listening to the podcast, he said in

Hebrew, he always talks in Hebrew when he wants to hide his message from the Western press, not that

they'd report it anyway, but he He said that Spain will pay an immediate price for daring to care about the Palestinians and saying that maybe they shouldn't be slaughtered. He was enraged, we're to slaughter anyone we like, okay? And if Spain objects, there'll be consequences. Well, now let's check out the consequences.

Aminiel Ube wrote in Wynet Global, Spain's refusal to allow the United States access to its Rhoda and Moran military bases. During the Iran campaign, it's consistent failure to meet NATO defense spending targets. And Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez's confrontational posture towards the Trump administration have collectively generated something rare in North African affairs. A genuine crack in Spain's strategic armor over Quetta and Malila. And into that crack, Morocco's most consequential new partner, Israel, is uniquely positioned to press.

So they wrote this little while back, previewing what might come next. And Malala is another city that Spain controls in North Africa. And they're saying, well, look, there's some issues that America has with, you know, Spain paying NATO dues. But mainly, how dare they not allow America to use this basis to bomb Iran on behalf of Israel? How dare they talk about the Palestinians as if they're humans? There's going to be consequences. So how does this actually get done, though? How does it get executed?

So they explained in March 2026, Michael Rubin of the American Enterprise Institute, writing through the Middle East Forum, called on Trump administration to formally recognize, Quetta and Malila as occupied Moroccan territory, branding Spain, quote, a colonial power running colonies across the Strait of Gibraltar. So now Israel is a settler colony that has colonized the Middle East and it continues to attack and take land. But when Spain pointed out the occupation and the brutal treatment of the Palestinians, they go, oh yeah, all of a sudden we care about colonization.

But it's only connected to when Spain criticized Israel. Then all of a sudden, American Michael Rupin at the American Enterprise Institute writes a policy paper about, you know, do we gotta do something about Spain and this land they have in North Africa. It's time to do something against Spain. Obviously, just because he cares so much about America, Connecticut, Alaska. So days later, look at this coordination, Representative Mario Diaz-Belard, a chairman of the House Subcommittee on National Security, and one of Marco Rubio's closest congressional

confidants declared publicly that the enclaves are, quote, not in the geographic territory of Spain, but rather in Moroccan territory, and that their fate should, quote, be established, negotiated, and discussed between friends and allies. So all of a sudden a so called American think tank writes a policy paper attacking Spain right after Israel ordered them to, at least publicly. And then an American, an American congressperson then attacks in the same exact way using the same exact talking points, but I'm sure there was no coordination at all, except for the fact they're about to admit it.

They write in, why not global? This was not the fringe speaking. This was the architecture of a coordinated strategic research. positioning. But wait, he's not done explaining how much this is Israel yet. He says it over and over again in the article. He continues to say, this is where Israel enters their equation and does so with unusual leverage. Now, of course, if I said that, everyone in American media was anti-Semite, what do you mean that Israel's doing a coordinated attack against Spain? That's conspiracy theory. And what do you mean they have unusual leverage? Are you in person?

that they have more power than any other country? Are you implying that they're somehow have more influence than Bolivia or Malaysia? But there they are in the Israeli press, bragging about it. We have unusual leverage over the Americans. And now we'll be using it to punish anyone who dares protect the Palestinians. Okay, well, we appreciate the confessions. They continue, the Abraham Accords transformed Morocco from a quiet, interlocutor with Israel into a formal military partner.

So if you didn't know, Morocco was part of the Abraham Accords and that led to Israel and Morocco having a military partnership. So Morocco is in bed with Israel. So if you're wondering, wait, what did Morocco and Israel? Okay, maybe Israel might want Morocco to do this, but why would Morocco do this? It turns out they have been a very close, strategic and military partner of Israel. So when Israel wants something for Morocco, they get it. When Israel wants something from America, they get it.

When Israel wants something from almost any country, they get it. In fact, when they wanted Spain to bend a knee and to join the war, and they didn't, they're like, no, that's unacceptable. We have to send a message to all countries on planet Earth. You are not to ever defy the Israelis. Okay, they continue. Israel's voice in the triangle carries disproportionate weight when Israeli official signals alignment with a partner's strategic interest, that signal registers powerfully in a White House that has placed Abraham Accords expansion at the center of its foreign policy vision.

In that case, the triangle is America, Morocco, and Israel. But basically, there's only one point in that triangle directing both, as this article clearly explains over and over again. Israel's in charge, we have the leverage, we tell America what to do, we tell Morocco what to do. And then they do it exactly as we order them. Now, if you weren't absolutely sure yet, then here comes Ben Gavir right after the event happens and they rush the border and he can't help but brag with glee on X and he says, my congratulations to the president of the government of Spain, Pedro Sanchez, for his profound commitment to the welcoming immigration and human diversity.

In other words, ha ha, you mess with Israel. And we're gonna unleash terror inside your country. And if people, dozens of people get killed along the way, we're Israel, we don't care about, were they Israeli? No, who cares? And so that those were the Moroccans who were used as cannon fodder for this political trick. So it's not impossible, John, for Morocco to have been, you know, agree with Spain overall historically about this territory, that it's not impossible if that is true, right?

So it's not impossible for that to be a factor, maybe. a mid-size factor, maybe a large factor, maybe they're aggrieved about the Algeria situation, that certainly could be a factor. And it could be that it's not just binary, that maybe the Moroccan government was itching to do this anyway. But did it happen right after Netanyahu threatened Spain? This Israel basically brag about it afterwards. Before and after, yes. And it was certainly coordinated and gigantic and much larger than any other type of event like this, leading me to wonder, is there anything that Israel is not involved in in the world and that they don't somehow create giant messes in other people's countries purely for their own benefit?

Is there no end to this madness from this one country terrorizing the world? Yeah, I mean, look at the entire situation is effed beyond repair. None of this is how anything to do with immigration is supposed to work. And even I, a person who obviously, you know, I follow the news every day, I report in the news. It's what potentially, like if it is, you know, as it's being described, this plot, it's a clever one because it's going to be very hard for most people to follow. Most regular people are not going to be able to conceive of this being how a tragedy on this

scale could have been organized, let alone, you know, if it is that, and we've got this first day, I imagine that's not the end of it. I imagine, look, it looks like Spain is trying to jump into action, sort of get a handle on the situation. But I doubt that the entire thing was intended to just be a 24 hour inconvenience for Spain or whatever. So I'd be a little bit worried about what comes in the future. And again, as I said earlier, we should bear in mind, you know, these states can play their power games on the international stage, but dozens of people lost their lives. They're dead floating in the ocean as a result of this. And I find that's to be utterly grotesque. This is not how any of this is supposed to work. And I worry that,

as I said earlier, for a number of different reasons, particularly because foreign policy, it's going to be hard to get a lot of people to necessarily follow along, let alone care. I mean, thankfully, I think the people watching now are probably much more likely than average, but this is the sort of thing that feels like they'll be able to get away with for the most part. Oh, for sure. So a couple of quick points on that. Number one, in terms of the human toll that you're referring to, why did half the people go back already? That was pretty quick, right? It's because this is a tiny little area and they don't have anywhere near enough food or water.

So when people realized, oh, we were lied to, this is, we're not going to get to freedom, we're not going to become citizens. They don't even have food or water here. Half of them went back immediately. So, oh wow, look at that. People in positions of power lying to the average person, getting them killed and making him go through incredible suffering. And oh look, the Israeli is not caring about non-Israeli lives 1%.

I know, shocking. To be fair, the CIA does this kind of stuff all the time. And we don't seem to care too much about non-American lives. So, and all of that enrages me. But in terms of being able to get away with it, oh, I would be shocked if we weren't one of the very few media outlets covering this along with the Israeli press. So if you, by the way, I really recommend reading the Israeli press. They are way more honest.

And that's where we get a lot of our news. Some of them are just great reporters and outlets and they have the ability to not get fired if they write something critical of Israel. In America, if you write something critical of Israel, you'll be called an anti-Semite and fired immediately. That's why almost no one ever writes anything critical about Israel. You'll never learn the reality about Israel in the American press. They're almost sworn allegiance to that country and whether they think it's because they're

going to get fired or they just love Israel or whatever other reasons they might have, but you're never going to get the truth from our press. But the Israeli press is very forthcoming and they tell you about all their plots and plans and how they're, you know, and then you got, as I said, people in that country who brag about this type of stuff. So, but what'll happen here in America is if you tell them what we just told you, guaranteed somebody like Jake Tapper will burrow his frowl, look down his nose and go, oh, this a conspiracy theory. And he said, well, look, the Israelis admitted it. How dare you, you're

anti-Semitic for quoting Israelis. How dare you? Okay, so that's the kind of oppression that we live under in America. Now that oppression is visited upon Spain. And I don't know. I don't know if Israel can be stopped from any of these outrageous actions in our lifetime. They seem to have, to say disproportionate power would be an amazing understatement. No, this is a kind of power I've never seen in my lifetime. And honestly, John, I didn't know that anyone had. And maybe I was a little naive. Maybe I believed American news outlets too much.

And I used to think, I mean, come on, really? Are there these big conspiracy, et cetera? Now I look back on it and I'm like, are governments going to cheat? and steal for their own benefit, well, almost every government does. So have we just been taught to be utter suckers here in America? Oh, the government doing something nefarious. How dare you, you conspiracy terrorists? No government would ever do that, let alone the American or Israeli government.

Are you kidding me? How many people have we murdered and coups, et cetera? And we would never do it? The Israelis would never do it? So I leave you on that question, John, of have we been suck? our whole life. I mean, you're focusing on this area. I've come to that conclusion of basically every area, actually for me.

I don't know what's going on. Yeah. Can I just say one final thing? I know that people in our audience have already discussed it, but the most moral army in the world is the most clownishly Orwellian thing I've ever heard in my life, I think. Yeah, no. I mean, I think that the Israeli took 1984 as a how to manual. rather than a warning, they're like, oh, those are really good ideas.

Oh, let's say the exact opposite. Yeah. Oh, I've got a good one. Well, this call herself the most moral army. Are all 23,000 children incinerated? Have we burned them all alive? Good, good, check. Most moral army in the world.

And John's absolutely right. It isn't about Israel. Israel's the tip of the iceberg. The iceberg is that our government and our media lies to us about almost everything. Like, they make it seem like it's normal that we don't have paid family leave. There's only like us and two island nations that don't have paid family leave. The rest of the 200 nations on earth have it. They think it's barbaric, we don't have it.

We can't afford it. We're the richest nation. We can afford every one of Israel's wars, but we can't afford for moms to take 12 weeks off after I have a baby. They've got to go right back into the assembly lines and the coal mines, et cetera. Nothing but work and toil and money from us and sometimes including the deaths of our soldiers. But the donors, big pharma, oil, defense contractors, Israel, they get everything. And the job of the media in America is to lie to you so you don't see that iceberg.

All right, we're going to take a quick break when we come back. Hey, good news. We've got to deal with Hamas that's going to actually liberate Gaza. that. Bad news, it involves Israel, so there's no chance it's going to happen. We'll explain when we come back. Across Canada in a Volvo. Destination, Vancouver, turn left to leave. Travel west through. Approaching. Continue toward. You've arrived. Adventure and comfort with Volvo. Whether you prefer gas, plug-in hybrid, or fully electric, there's a Volvo.

for everyone. Learn more at Volvocars.ca. Let's go to Twitch first. Velvo gold mines says, Spain has not attacked Israel. All they are guilty of is not bowing down to Israel slash the US. Yep. That's why they try to destroy all their opponents inside America. If you don't kneel to them, they view that as grave affront. Do you not know when your superior is in the room? So, I mean, I remember like people got mad at Anna because she said F Israel. Is that controversial? Are we not supposed to be angry with Israel? What kind of ludic assumptions does do people in Washington have? Jack Callahan said, the real immigrant influx is coming in when famine hits because of no fertilizer coming through the Strait of Hormuz. Yes, Jack, that's so true. So these huge migration waves happen when there's

lack of resources, and that's headed next towards us. Moly, she says, Jenk, can you comment on some of the other Senate race like Maine, Florida, New Hampshire, and Texas? Hey, in Maine, Troy Jackson's the new candidate. We really like him. And so make sure you support him against Susan Collins. In Florida, Oliver Larkman's against Moskowitz. We talked about that on yesterday's show.

Make sure you support Oliver Larkin. Texas, obviously, Tau Rico is huge. So we'll try to do more and more as we go along. Nerd Ferguson said, Papua New Guinea added again, I'm guessing. Well, they're about the same size as Israel, so they have about the same power. Boomer Dragon Cat, we don't need to just stop giving Israel money. We need to completely amputate them from the U.S. Yes, we're just not that into them.

Let's divorce them. All right, back on the Young Turks, Jane Huger and John Iderola. John, of course, also the host of Damage Report. Check that out at 1 o'clock Eastern. YouTube our 24-hour channels on Samsung, LG, Amazon Prime, YouTube TV, etc. And I want to thank Fat Satter for gifting a membership, but I also wanted to just read one quick. Actually, I'll read two quick comments from YouTube members. Jim Huggett wrote in, John is by four the best host on TYT.

Okay, it's an aggressive thing to send in. I'm in my top five favorite. I'll say that. Okay, I know. I love it. Thanks for writing in, Jim. And Bruce 3613 says, it's amazing how my selection of podcast. I've changed in a year, biggest political shift in my life.

Wow, I love that. Bruce, way to keep an open mind, brother. And everyone, look around, not just to us, look around, listen to other shows, see which one of them are giving you actual facts, or say things that turn out to be true or say things that turn out to be false, right? So definitely keep an open mind, we love it. Speaking of keeping an open mind, keep an open mind on your cell phone service. So we switched to Noble mobile, I did, and I'm thrilled with it, it's Andrew Yang's company,

company and they love to give away money. So they're gonna do it again. Now they got a new plan. So you never pay above $50. You get cash back. If you don't use your data, we're all on Wi-Fi. So I constantly get tons of cash back. I never pay anywhere near $50. But now with Noble, you can reward your entire family for using their phones less. And additional lines are only $40 a month. So now down to $40 a month at a maximum. But again, you get cash back. So for that monthly price, you get up to $20 in cash back. You've got unlimited data, half to cost the big guys. International coverage, I've now been in a couple of different countries and my phones

worked perfectly. So I just can't recommend it highly enough. Please, please save, start saving money now. There's no point, like yeah, you can do the switch a couple months later, but every month you don't switch, you know, needlessly lose money. So t.yt.com slash switch, t.yt.com slash switch. All right, now let's go to our next story. And I think they should have freedom of terror. And for that, Hamas has to be disarmed

and Gaza has to be demilitarized. That's our plan. Disarm, demilitarize Gaza, and de-radicalize it. That's what is needed to happen in Gaza to give them a new life and to give a chance for peace. So of course that's not true because it's Benjamin Netanyahu. If he's speaking, he's lying. So the Hamas apparently did actually say, yes, we will disarm. To which Israel said, never mind, we're not going to do any of the things that we promised. For more on this, interesting story, because Trump and Amos do have a deal, John's got the facts. Yeah, or at least they want to have a deal. We'll see if they're allowed to have a deal that would disarm and demilitarize and also de-radicalize that third goal, which definitely if you want to de-radicalize

the region, what you do is you go in and you kill like 100,000 civilians. That'll stop them from being radical for a while. But anyway, we'll get to the like the water being poured on this deal. But right now, we want to start with the announcement. So the Donald Trump posted this on true social yesterday, what seemed like good news, so long as you haven't been paying attention to anything going on. He said today the Board of Peace reached a historic agreement for the complete disarmament of Hamas and all other armed groups in Gaza. This is a monumental step towards lasting peace and security. This agreement is a critical step towards Gaza finally being governed by a new Palestinian government that will work closely with

the Board of Peace to help the Palestinian people. At the same time, Israel will have the security it deserves with Gaza no longer used as a base for terror attack. So he's implying there that eventually Palestinians will be able to choose or maybe not choose, but have their people in charge and they'll get to work in close conjunction with Jared Kushner or whatever for what's best for them. The agreement will be carried out, he says, in carefully structured phases. As disarmament is completed, Israeli forces will withdraw. And the international stabilization force will work with a new Palestinian police force to take responsibility for Gaza being safe for its residents and its neighbors. Now, it's been a while since the ceasefire was announced,

like something like eight or nine months, but this is kind of basically just what was described there and were led to believe that in the intervening months, they've moved towards the point where now they can actually start to do it, I guess. So that agreement way back in October had called for Hamas to disarm and then hand over power to an independent Palestinian administration. Israel was to withdraw and an international stabilization force was to deploy. But progress stalled with Israel saying everything hinged on Hamas disarming and Hamas accusing Israel of violating the agreement by continuing to carry out regular strikes on Gaza, which of course they have done that entire period. We call it a ceasefire because I guess we're supposed to,

but there has been no ceasing of the firing. People have been shot, people have been bombed, many people have died in the intervening months. And Hamas also justifiably, like they haven't disarmed, but you know, why would they? Israel has to be. it withdrawn, they've still killed, continue to kill people. So again, there's not necessarily a lot of reasons for either of the sides to trust each other on this. And so coming back to the present, they've announced that they will disarm and lay down their heavy weaponry as well in a process that will take some time, but that Israel must agree to end its strikes and gradually withdraw from Gaza. But again, that's what they agree to do in October. So you can see how there's

some potential stumbling box right out the gate with this new deal. But according to the new agreement, Both issues would be done in phases. First, all weapons held by the Hamas run police will be transferred to the U.S.-backed Palestinian Technocratic Committee, known as the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza upon its arrival in the enclave. It's not clear when that would happen since it's contingent on other steps. But after that, there would be a process to decommission and store heavy weapons, military production sites and tunnels will begin after the arrival of the Palestinian Committee and the deployment of international forces. That will be linked to a phased Israeli withdrawal. I'm not entirely. sure a withdrawal to what extent, if this is to their yellow line or the red line or whatever it is or something like what Gaza was a couple of years ago. I doubt it, but maybe theoretically, all of this would probably take the better part of six months to a year at the very least. And if that seems like a long time, bear in mind this process was basically supposed to have started nine months ago and it's taken this long to even get to where it could potentially start. Now, one senior Hamas official Ghazi Hamad said the agreement,

The agreement contains a clear provision stating that Israel must commit to and implement its obligations. If Israel does not implement the agreement, neither will we, and the idea is that that's, you know, vice versa as well. But if we could jump ahead to graphic nine, responding to the reports of the breakthrough between the Board of Peace and Hamas, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office issued a statement pouring cold water on the optimism by claiming that the disarmament proposal did not meet Israel's demands for a full demilitarization of Gaza in exchange for any withdrawals from the strip. And we have some video from interested parties, but Jank, I literally don't know how it doesn't meet that. They're going to give up

their light weapons, they're going to give up their heavy weapons. They're going to give up the places where the weapons are made and they're going to close down the tunnels. Like do they want hammers and knives too? Do they have to give up their like their bare hands? Some people might know karate. I don't know, but I don't know what else disarmament you could have. This is the thing that that supposedly they've wanted for many, many, many years. And now even that isn't enough. Of course it isn't because they never cared about any of the things that they said.

It wasn't about self-defense. It wasn't about the hostages. Remember, they're like, oh, my God, you know, the hostages. If we get the hostages back, then we'll withdraw and then everything will be fine. Oh, they gave the hostages back. Damn it. How about the dead? They got to give me every dead body.

If they don't give me the dead bodies, oh, they gave the dead bodies. Disarmament, that's what it is. Okay, now they completely disarmed, light weapons, heavy weapons. They have to stop breathing. They're breathing too much. It's bothering us, okay? No, they were never going to do any of the deal. Since the 20-point plan was announced, as John pointed out, they never stopped striking Gaza.

They killed over a thousand people there, more people than in October 7th. And they keep doing one October 7th after another, after another as the gargantuan, disgusting liars in American media. keep covering for them. Did they tell you, oh, I want an outrage with an October 7th type of attack from Israel into Gaza, even in the middle of a peace plan and a ceasefire? No, they never said any of that.

They're like, oh yeah, of course. Palestinians' lives are worthless, stupid Arabs and Muslims and Christians. No, it's no big deal that Israel keeps slaughtering them, right? Otherwise, you would all know, you'd all be outraged that Israel will never, ever follow a ceasefire, right? And so then, okay, that's just one. And then they were supposed to let in humanitarian aid.

They're like, we're not going to. So the Palestinians are back to starving. These are sick people. The Israeli government has got now the Palestinians in Gaza down to 30% of Gaza. Gaza is only the size of Vegas. Now it's down to 30%. Two million people stuffed in there into an open air concentration camp. And they won't let humanitarian aid in.

They won't let sick children out. They keep dying because they can't get medical treatment. And they're like, yes, so what? We're not gonna do any peace. And we just one lie after another after another. So now in this version of it, Trump says, look, if you don't follow this, I am going to be very aggrieved and I am going to wag my finger. How am I doing, Joe Biden?

You did the same BS, right? You wag the finger, a strongly worded letter? Hey, get Barack Ravita to Axios to write about how I did an angry phone call with that, you better or not. Maybe he'll swear again. Whatever you do, don't release the tapes. Okay, so yeah, Israel's saying, oh, you guys have a perfect agreement, the thing that we asked for, the very last thing we asked for, disarmament, yeah, we were just kidding, we're not going to do that.

The third thing they violated, by the way, is they were not supposed to go past the yellow line, and then they were supposed to withdraw from the yellow line. That's 53% of Gaza already. And instead, they've now gone beyond the yellow line, which is a massive violation of the ceasefire. They now have 70% of Gaza and we've shown you on the past, tapes of Netanyahu bragging about it. We're up to 70% and Ben Gavir and other ministers say all the time, we're never going to give that back.

The Knesset has already voted that they're never going to free the Palestinians. We've got more tape of that in a second that we're gonna show you guys. And throughout Israel's all of these violations, them being clearly the party that is pushing for more war and violence, clearly 100% against peace. clearly stealing other people's land, clearly doing ethnic cleansing and genocide, our media is like, no, I don't see it. What do you think? I'm a reporter or a news anchor?

No, our media is like, God bless Israel. And anyone who criticized them, like Abdul al-Said, as we're going to show you in the next segment, anti-Semite, right? Yeah. Yeah, our media disgusts me. They should all collectively move to Tel Aviv. Yeah, the entire thing is just utterly grotesque. Just bear in mind, Nanyahu's office didn't say we don't accept it because we don't trust them.

They said we wouldn't accept it if they did it. That wouldn't be enough. That's absolute madness. These weapons are literally the only thing stopping from the entire country from being taken over. But even getting rid of them isn't enough. I think we only have time for one video. So why don't we play the second video talking about the establishment of the state? And I have only one more point I want to make about that.

But let's jump into this. Now streaming on Disney Plus, the Hulu original series Furious follows FBI, Agent Alice Black, played by Emmy Rossum, on the hunt for a mysterious and calculating serial killer. Both walk their own paths toward justice, and as their lives start to intertwine, the line between right and wrong begins to blur. New episodes week over week, watch the Hulu original series Furious, now streaming only on Hulu on Disney Plus. Just to be precise, Ambassador, Israel's open to the idea of a new state of Palestine emerging alongside Israel, the two-state solution, as it's called. Is that what I'm hearing?

Absolutely not. After October 7th, no one is discussing the option of a Palestinian state today in Israel. We are concerned about our security. We want to see the Palestinians prosper, a better life under moderate regime and not Hamas regime. But the idea of a state, it's not on the table. Do you support a Palestinian state? No, I'll tell you why not? Because we had one. It's called Gaza. And in fact, it was a de facto Palestinian state. And what was it used for to launch this horrible massacre against us? Hamas says openly that it's out to destroy every Jew, kill every Jew in the world, kill every Jew in Israel. You want peace with the Palestinians, but not at the expense of our survival. Nobody wants to commit national suicide. I don't think I've ever seen the goalposts move that fast. They've gone to plaid.

Oh, they already had a state. We're done with that. I guess we had, I missed it. I should have paid attention when that was going on. So there will be no state. There will be no state because of a terror attack. And I guess, you know, a massacre 20, 50 times as much. It doesn't mean that they shouldn't have a state, but Gaza should ever have a state.

Jank, they will not allow them to have a state that would not be armed. They literally have no weapons. No other state on earth has that requirement, but they abide by that. They still can't have a state. They won't even be able to elect their own leaders. It's going to be Jared Kushner and it's going to be technocrats, basically just Trump is going to choose people that are going to dice it up and sell it off to oligarchs around the world. Even that isn't enough. No limit. It basically would be a tiny little half city sized zoo that would get to call itself a state and that's not enough. And it's not because they'd still be a threat. It's because Benjamin Niajo, to his bone marrow, doesn't want it to happen. But even if he did, he fears that the even more right-wing people in his government would toss him out or maybe even worse, considering the history of the state.

He just can't allow it to happen and also would rather die than have it happen. I want to quickly address one of the lies he said and then get to the main point. He said that Guagazel was already a de facto Palestinian state. Nothing could be further from the truth. They couldn't control their own borders. They couldn't allow even medicine to come in. They'd get embargoed all the time. They had no military.

They had no ability. They had no foreign policy. That's an utter preposterous lie. It was always penned in and controlled by Israel 100%. And they could be starved at any time and oftentimes were. So the Israelis had disgustingly oppressive control over Gaza back then. Now, of course, they've annihilated 70% of it and just have 30% as a constant. concentration camp. So, but look, this is the last time you'll see other than on our show

and some online shows, but certainly in mainstream media, the admission that the Israelis are never going to allow a Palestinian state. So you saw their ambassador and their prime ministers say, no, no, we are not going to allow the Palestinians to ever have a state. They will be permanently our slaves. And this is an apartheid, this is an apartheid. When you say, I will never allow this other race to be free. They will always be under my boot and I will crush them whenever I want and I'll murder their children, 23,000 of them whenever I want, I'll starve them to death whenever I want. We're looking at modern day Nazis.

So I'm not one percent shy about saying that. It sickens me that we're funding the Nazis this time around. I was so proud of America that we fought the Nazis last time and we saved the United. Jews and Poles and Roma and so many others, and we were the good guys. Now we're helping disgusting fascists, run concentration camps, and then we go, hey, it's time for peace, good news, we're gonna disarm all the Jews, I mean all the Palestinians, okay? Like, if, by the way, imagine the Germans are like, I demand that all the Jews be disarmed.

And America was like, yes, please, we won't do anything until we disarm the Jews, and then the Nazis go, not good enough, well, I'm gonna keep them in the concentration camp. Yes, sir, sorry sir, here's more money, sir. And that's exactly what we're doing with Israel. So one last fact, just so you know with absolute certainty, Knesset already voted back in July 18th of 2024. As Times of Israel explained back then, the Knesset late Wednesday who voted overwhelmingly to pass a resolution rejecting the establishment of a Palestinian state.

This resolution passed 68 to 9, all nine votes for Arabs, altogether rejects the establishment of a Palestinian state even as part of a negotiated settlement with Israel. So even as part of a negotiated settlement, even in a peace plan, the Israelis, every single Jewish Israeli Knesset member voted, no, we will never free the Palestinians. They are to be our servants and slaves for the rest of time. But we're the good guys, we're doing self-defense. Oh, I can't imagine why the Palestinians would ever attack us when we're so innocent. I mean, what else do you want us to do with our slaves?

But you, did you see that? In Israeli press, they celebrated it, the fireworks. Yeah, the Palestinians are never gonna be free. And they loved it and they had giant celebrations. Did you see it in the American press? No, because the American press's job is to lie to you to make sure that you never find out how evil this Israeli government is. How disgustingly evil they are.

And if you tell me it's not evil to murder about 100,000 people, 23,000 children, stadiums full of women and children and to starve them and to put them in a tiny little area and say they're never going to have freedom. What you're saying is, no, Jank, it's not a matter of morality. We like that Israel's immoral. We like lying to Americans while pretending to give them news. And even if their prime minister says it on tape on our air, and even if their ambassador says it, and even if they're Knesset, their parliament voted to never free the Palestinians,

We're never gonna tell the American people. So other than the young Turks on a couple online shows, you'll never see that in American media again. They'll all pretend that Israel's still the victim, they're still doing self-defense, they never did a genocide, it's all the Palestinians fault, it's all the Iranians fault, the Lebanese fault, it's all the dirty Arabs and Muslims and savages fault. That's what they'll say, because they're disgusting racist, and they're disgusting bigots. And they like to help this fascist government slaughter people and take their land.

I charge almost every cable news anchor with being a disgusting genocide supporter, helping the fascists lie to Americans so they could steal our money so they could brutalize and kill those people and take their land. You sicken me. Mainstream media, you are so guilty. You're gonna go in a museum one day as people who enthusiastically were the gobles that helped cover up a genocide and finance it. because you wouldn't criticize your beloved Israel and you betrayed this country and you betrayed

your readers and your viewers on purpose to serve another country. Go ahead, prove me wrong. Go tell your audience that Israel is never going to free the Palestinians and see, oh, but then Americans wouldn't love Israel. But aren't you supposed to be objective? They're not at all objective. I think our everyone in 95% of our Congress and 95% of our mainstream media are disgusting genocide supporters who are deeply racist and bigoted and are currently supporting

and Nazi-like government, young Turks. All right, back on TYAT, Jump and Jenk Flash says, So, Jing, when do you realistically think the tide will turn it on Israel and other countries will actually start push back on them? I don't imagine they can keep dictated on how other countries are supposed to act forever, before one of them decide it's no longer acceptable. Well, here's the thing, this one is like not so much about Israel as about humanity, when people are this drunk on power as the Israelis are and they think that they have infinite power and for a long time they have, and they can get away with anything,

what they'll do is they'll push the envelope, push down, push the envelope until they hit disaster. So I don't know what disaster looks like and I don't know when disaster comes. But at some point, yeah, of course, the American people are going to realize that their media were disgusting liars who have been lying to them the whole time to help to steal their money to support a genocide. And then they're going to be super pissed. They're already under 50 year olds are already super duper pissed. I don't know if it needs to get to 80 or 98% before we throw out all the bombs. All those people in Congress are the very worst scum in America,

the lowest of the low. Okay, so there's going to be consequences. And at some point, America is going to regain its freedom. And what it does, we're going to leave Israel alone. And my guess is that Israel is going to go, I don't care, man, I'm going to take a rod and Turkey, etc, and they're gonna get themselves into it, trouble they can't get out of. So we'll see. Dragon Tree says, I love Noble Mobile, I've had it for about four months and I wish I'd switched sooner. Yes, everything said about it is true, but the cherry on top is a great customer service,

usually unheard of phone service, seriously good customer service. In four months, I've already saved about $125. That's amazing, thank you for letting us know. That's awesome, that's from one of our members. We'll be right back. All right, back on TYT, Jank and John with you guys and Tricia Briggs, who's a YouTube member, says Dragon Daddy is fantastic. That's John's nickname, of course, from Damage Report. Check out damage report every day, 1 o'clock Eastern.

By the way, check out all of our shows on Substack as well, tyt.com slash substack. Ring the bell on YouTube if you can. All right, let's go to the next story. It's official. Haley Stevens is getting desperate. She's now down by 15 points. So she's going to use her last card. Let me see, what kind of card do we have?

Oh, the anti-Semi card. Oh my God, that is so surprising. John, I didn't think it was coming. Can you believe it? I'm actually surprised that it was the last card. I guess that's the thing that actually surprised me. But as you point out, the polls, obviously, it's pretty bad. She's down by a lot, despite, you know, the huge influxes of money into the race and everything.

So let's take a look at what actually happened on social media. So first, you had Abdul al-Sayed who's been doing interviews. He did an interview with Amani al-Qatabbe. I apologize for the name, known as the Muslim Girl Online, is doing an interview of Abdul al-Said. And in this clip, which you'll see, he's talking about Stevens and some of the financial backing for her campaign. This campaign is basically a two-way race, me versus A-PAC. Yeah.

They've called me the most dangerous candidate for the U.S. relationship. They spent $17 million, which is more than their candidate is going to, spend on the race on her own. Yeah. They will do absolutely whatever it takes to beat me, and I'm still going to torch their 30 million, torch the next 30 million that they spend the general, and I'm still going to take the head off the snake. So essentially setting a precedent for the direction the country's going on. So like, you know, when APEC watches this, come for me. See what happens. Come for me. Like, you know, I know you keep coming, but like, you pick them, like, literally

the least capable candidate in America, right? And then Chuck Schumer doubles down. And then APEC doubles down. And part of me is like, okay, look. If you think you can beat money out of politics, money in your pocket, Medicare for all, come. But I'll tell you what people don't want. They don't want money in a foreign government. They want money here. From the producers of Super Troopers and Super Troopers 2 comes, you guessed it. Broken Lizard and their rowdy patrol squad returned to the scene of the crime.

In Super Troopers 3, the mustaches are thicker, the maple syrup stickier, and the pranks crazier than ever. Buckle up for the funniest comedy of the summer. Super Troopers 3, only in theaters, August 7. And that is an aggressive and very confident candidate. And I'll do a lot of SID right there. Well, obviously, Haley Stevens is not going to like a lot of that. It was, as Semper Fire Dog says, it was very savage. So she put on Twitter at duel, we were both on the ballot in 2018.

I was capable of winning my competitive primary and general election. You lost. You lost by over 20 points to Graduate Whitmer, and you will lose to Mike Rogers by talking. like this. Everyone in America understands you want to blame all of your problems on Jewish Americans, which I just watched that clip. I just did, and he did not do that at all, at all, one for one problem, let alone all problems, but that's what she's claiming. But buddy, let me be very clear, I will lower the cost of groceries, ban stock trading for elected officials, stop Trump's abuses of power and protect Michigan manufacturing, and you'll just be a celebrity whining and writing

books to get even richer. You're part of the complainer class looking for their next book or podcast deal. Bro, I just want to work for Michigan. So there's obviously the accusations of anti-Semitism there, pretty radical accusations of anti-Semitism. There's an attempt to seem foxy and cool with the bro. That doesn't play to me at least. I don't know. But anyway, we're going to jump into all of that. The context there she's talking about the prior races is that, yes, back in 2018, he changed challenged Gretchen Whitmer in the Democratic primary right there. And she did win by nearly 22 points right there. Now he wasn't the only candidate, so he lost, but talking about the gap,

there were other candidates too. In any event, she ran for the House of Representatives and won. It's obviously a very different thing running in a house race versus running in a gubernatorial race. She's conflating the two to make herself seem more electable. And another factor that obviously he was talking about the race is the fact that he Stephen's, according to track A-PAC, has gotten nearly $37 million by PACs that are supportive of the current Israeli government, which is obviously a very large amount of money and there's a huge amount of money going into this race. I think he underplayed it with the number that he talked about there. In any event, she's declaring that electability should be the thing that this is based on and that she is more electable. There have been, by the way, so like in the primary polling jank, he's beating her by 15 points. It's fairly massive. I haven't seen a lot of really high quality polling for the general. Like if it was Abdul al-Said or her against Rogers, I've only seen a few smaller, not like large

university polls. So I don't know exactly what to make of that argument. But you can make that argument if you want to without declaring that he blames every problem in his life on Jewish Americans when he very clearly just said, I don't think people in this state want money from a foreign government flooding into their election, which is about as different two things as I can imagine. But what do you think? Yeah, so first of all, anti-Semitism, he didn't even say anything about Israel, let alone Jewish people. He just mentioned A-PAC. So if A-PAC spends $30 million against you, you're not even allowed to say their name, because if you say their name, then you instantly become an anti-Semite. But by the way, them buying elections, totally fine.

Totally fine. You want a fair election? Shut up anti-Semite. Israel can buy any seat they like. But you're not allowed to say. They're allowed to do it, but you're not allowed to say. But he basically said, look, they're spending all this money against me. And that's anti-Semitic.

If he pointed out all the drug company money against them, would that be anti-druggist, anti-pharmacist? This is absurd. It's an obviously dirty trick done by dirty disgusting people like Haley Stevens and all of our national media. They work in coordination to attack anyone who opposes Israel, call them an anti-Semite. So and to our earlier points, oh, earlier I won my elections. Yeah, even before this election, APAC had given her $20 million. So a lot, and by the way, the difference between this election and those elections is those

Those elections got no media coverage. So when you have $20 million, do you know how easy it is to buy a congressional seat? Do you know that 95% of the time the person with more money wins the congressional race? Doesn't matter if the Republican, Democrat, conservative, liberal, nothing matters other than money, 19 out of 20 times. So the one out of 20 times when money doesn't win is when there's a lot of media attention and people get to find out about the candidates through their actual policies, debates, interviews rather than finding out through the misleading ads bought by all sorts of different

packs and lobbies, etc. But obviously in this case, it's mainly APEC. So all of that is underplayed, like right now $36 to $37 million for Haley Stevens from APEC. No, no, that's way understating it. So far there's been $60 million spent on the Senate race against Abdul, and he's being outspent 60 to 1, and he's still winning. And so before that never happened, because the disgusting liars and media would come and tell you somebody's an anti-Semite and they'd never cover them again.

And so all that anybody would ever find out, and they didn't know that the word anti-Semite was a trick, that it was a, again, a dirty trick that the media uses to protect Israel. So they'd, good Americans were like, oh, I didn't know that, I don't want to vote for an anti-Semite, I'd think the same thing, right? I don't want to vote for anyone who's irrationally against people. And then A PAC would come in and buy all the ads. And they've done this in countless races, Andy Levin in Michigan, Nina Turner in Cleveland, Ohio, Marie Newman in Illinois, Tom Massey in Kentucky, 32 million spent against him.

They buy one election after another, after another, and then get the media to cover up their crimes and then pretend that everyone else in America is an anti-Semite. But now they've now 60% of the countries against Israel, and that grows every single day. And yet, they still do the same tricks. If you object to your money being taken and given to a country for more wars and genocide, you're an anti-Semite, you're a Jew hater. And the problem isn't with Israel, the problem is with you. And so that's what our media and our corrupt politicians tell us all the time.

But what I love John and what's different is it's not working anymore. And that's why they're in a panic. If they spent 60 million on this election and Abdul wins anyway, well, then they're not going to be invincible anymore. And they're not gonna get to terrify and terrorize Congress as much as they used to. In the Democratic Party and the Democratic voters as much as they used to. So the Israeli lobby is a little worried that their terrorism inside this country is not going to work as well.

So I can't imagine that there was a more important non-presidential election. This might be the single most important election for a Senate seat in my lifetime. And look at what Abdul al-Said said. He's done with the Democrats of the past. He just went after Chuck Schumer there. In the past, we'd have incredibly weak, insipid candidates. And I know, because I would talk to them behind the scenes, attack the leadership, attack establishment Democrats.

They're not on your side. Go get the voters. Appeal to the voters. No, no, I can't say anything against Chuck Schumer, or, Gabe Jeffries, right? Now Abdul's like, yeah, I'm coming to the Senate. But I don't give a goddamn what Chuck Schumer thinks. Ata boy, there you go. And guess what?

Democratic voters hate Democratic leadership. You're not going to lose a single vote from that. Anybody who's like, oh no, how dare he criticized Chuck Schumer was going to vote for Haley Stevens anyway. Yeah. As you say, if he wins, it will be deeply, it'll be symbolic, it'll be deeply substantive, but also if they spend $60 million and they still lose, it'll also be deeply, deeply funny. I'm going to chuckle, I don't know about it. Yeah. It'll be greatly fulfilling.

And maybe it'll be part of finally defeating the Israeli lobby that has been controlling our Congress completely, maybe up until this election. If you know anybody in Michigan, make sure you talk to them and get them to vote, friends, family, just think it through. Anybody you know in Michigan, give them a call. Elections on Tuesday, but the voting has already started. Make sure that every American is voting because our sovereignty is on the line here. If Abdul loses, Israel's 100% in control of the Democratic Party and Congress, and they will all bow to them and give them all of our money for endless wars in the Middle East. Yeah. Oh, we're. I know. Ah, we're out of time. Okay. Okay. John, thank you, brother. I appreciate it. Everybody check out damage report.

One o'clock Eastern every day. When we come back, section 219. that's the one that merges our military technology. It turns out the CIA has some opinions on it. We're going to talk to a guest that has the information on what the CIA thinks. You're not going to want to miss that. We'll be right back. What contributions to the progressive cause are you most proud of? I mean, I don't have super high aspirations for a singular role that I can play in the movement or anything.

I just, I try to present myself as what I think that I am, which is. is a progressive man who is driven by a, I think, well-interrogated and well-organized system of values that I try to stay consistent on, and I demonstrate that that's the sort of life that a person can lead. And be successful and be happy and all of that. And that should not need to be done, but there are so many people on the right that are trying to push men in the opposite direction that I want to be able to do that. Along the way, if I can get people to care about some topics that not, that they wouldn't necessarily care about, or that for some men might, they might think that's not a topic that they should be focused on.

That's definitely something that I relish doing. And along the way, I mean, we've been able to introduce people to a lot of candidates. That's been a big part of what we've done. You know, not all of them necessarily got in office. Probably most of them did not. And a lot of them, you might not even remember their names. But it was great to be able to provide people the platform where they had the chance of, you know, making a difference.

Obviously, AOC and all that. But there's been a lot of great people along the way. In the bonus episode for the members, we do some inside baseball. We're going to look at John's desk. Nice little spaceship here. Nerd. But it is kind of look cool. Who has Legos?

Oh, no. He's taken apart a keyboard. Who has a mouse pad that's this big? He's got a dog with a nose that you can hang something like. You know what this desk screams to me? Nerd. And that's how we like him. We love Johnny Pie.

He's got his own personality. Like everybody does it. TYT. Come meet us all in the bonus episodes. TYT.com slash team. David Soror. Anita Turner. Is Adam Green Drop by? Charlamine. Congressman, great to have you.

It's great to be with you, Chang. Your show is a great thing. You're informing people. A lot of the shows that I live on, you know, my CNN and my MSNBC and even Fox and any of the other shows, NPR. They are so quick to decide that they know what this building means today. The one thing that I hate that politicians do, you know, they talk about the people they should be talking to. Do they have any idea that they're their establishment and that they're hated?

Or do they not realize that at all? People are so deeply in their little universe. I think it's very easy to not really question what you're doing. Voters have a right to ask questions of any nominee, whether they're independent, Republican, or Democrat. The system is monopoly that suppresses competition. How is it the year 2024? And we're still like maybe they'll talk about paid medical.

I know, it's insane. How is that like, at one level it's like, good, what we're talking about. about it now. You're like, it's 2024. And that's always been the critique, that your critique of us is, well, you guys give good speeches, you put out good tweets, but you're not wielding actual power. Now we're starting to. My favorite news platform by far. It's not even close. It's not a country and a principle. And that's what you and I both work to achieve. And I'm so glad that at least half the battle has now been one. If you want to go really hear what's going on, honestly, you should tune into the Young Turks. Thanks for doing such a great job. Please keep it up. Hang tough.

I'm young Turks, I'm your host, Jane Huguer. So section 219 is a provision to merge our military technology with Israel. It's obviously crazy, unless you're in government or you're in media. And you go, no big deal, yeah, they should just take one or one and a half trillion dollars

worth of our money and get all of it for free. So of course, because they all work for Israel. But now capital empire has an interesting story about the CIA's reaction to that provision. I'm very curious about that. In fact, I'll read you one portion of the article and then we'll bring on the author to talk about it. Most mainstream news coverage, they explained, framed the proposed shift as a reflection on Israel's growing economic and military strength or self-sufficiency, referring to how they're going to potentially phase out getting direct contributions from us, which I don't believe at all. But according to the assessment, the CIA views a strategy differently.

The spy agency believes that Israel is seeking to insulate the US-Israel alliance from America's changing political land. landscape by replacing highly visible foreign aid with deeper, longer lasting forms of military and industrial integration. So the person who wrote that is Ida Chavez and she joins us now. Ida, welcome. So talk to me about the CIA reaction here. So are they saying, well, this is an end run to get basically American financing and for all their efforts, et cetera, intertwine us.

So we can't excretrate, that was a team. terrible way of saying it ourselves from Israel. But or are they also saying that's not a good idea? So this was a classified CIA assessment that circulated this week just with the national security apparatus and the way that these assessments work is it's CIA analysts. So they're just like subject matter experts and these assessments are. compiled, like, as the spy agency. Like, this is our expert reading of the situation.

And so the assessment that went around to, you know, the agency and just broader national security apparatus, the assessment was that Israel wants to merge militaries, like, defense, tech, industrial complexes with the U.S. to make it more difficult for any future administrations, including administrations that may be more hostile or less supportive of Israel, to make it harder for them to wind this down. And so they just want to entangle as much as possible. And it stems from the fact that they know that they're running out of time. Public opinion is shifting quickly, especially with just all the recent electoral success that like campaigns running on an anti-Israel like pro-Gaza platform have seen in these big political upsets.

Like Israeli officials, it's finally starting to sink in that they're losing Americans. it's only going to become harder to get these big multi-billion dollar aid packages in. Sorry for the cat. Yeah, that's okay. So Ida, it happens to everyone. So Ida, we seem to have this unique situation. I'm not sure I've ever seen it, where the CIA is being more honest than our media or our politicians. Yeah.

Because our politicians and our media are saying like, oh, what's the big deal? Of course, you always merge militaries. Remember when we did that with Peru? And I'm like, no, I don't remember that. And now it's perfectly normal, perfectly normal. And we get more out of it, right? And it appears that the CIA is going, I don't think so. So wouldn't they be able to have access to all the money we spent on all of our technology?

And basically they just kind of get that for free, the trillions of $100? How is we spent? Yeah, and they could also very easily spy on all of us. Like the other part of the strategy on how they get us so entangled is they want the US to become dependent on Israeli tech in our own defense systems. Yeah, that's interesting. See, I hadn't thought of that angle until I read it in your piece in Capital and Empire. So let me quote that.

That's graphic three. Israeli officials also want Israeli technology, intelligence capabilities, and jointly develop weapons systems embedded in the US military itself, making American defense increasingly reliant on Israeli systems. So it's not just that they're taking an enormous amount from us, but if they're enmeshed in our system, then we won't be able to pull out from them because then some of our technology is kind of cross-streamed. That's probably I'm sure not the technically correct way of saying it.

But all of this is an effort to get us to a situation where no matter what Israel does, if they do 12 genocides in a row, endless wars, we just can't quit them. Yeah. And they are already, Israeli officials are already in contact with prominent Americans in tech. There were no specific names that were mentioned in the assessment, but those talks have been ongoing. They're already strategizing with prominent American figures on like, how can we sell the American public on just incorporating Israeli tech into American defense systems and how can we start doing like joint investment? joint research and development. So what are we talking about here?

So we don't know, I just want to preface that, but people that are in defense tech are like companies like Palantir, right? So is that the field we're talking about? Companies like that, where they- I believe so. That's a safe guess. Yeah, so then the Israelis are going to them and saying use your political and media power to make sure that American government is in mesh in the Israeli government, and presumably you'll get contracts from both. Yeah, and there would be no guardrails on the strategy. If things are already not transparent, even less transparency. It's a really scary situation, really scary strategy that they're pursuing. Yeah, it's amazing. I mean, there's Israeli assets.

You've got the politicians who are like, we're not even voting on it. Rokana and Sarah Jacobs were against it and they didn't want it, they at least wanted a vote on it and everybody else like, no way, no way, okay, Israel gets everything they want and there'll be no votes. Well then you're an Israeli asset, you're not an American representative. And then now you've got the tech companies that are Israeli assets potentially, by the way, again, this is not like wild conspiracy thinking, that's the CIA telling us. And finally, of course, Israeli assets in the media, let me show you a quick clip for you.

from Ben Shapiro. Prime Minister, will that drawing down of foreign aid from the United States to Israel be compensated by the- I think that in honor of Lindsey Graham, we should pass that NDAA, we should pass the National Defense Authorization Act. We should radically revise our supply lines. We need to radically increase our production of things like Patriots and Thads. We need to really network with allies who are fighting on the front lines of civilization, like Ukraine, like Israel.

again, those people have military tech that we're going to need. We are finding out new things about how technology works on the battlefield every single day from the war in Ukraine. We found that out in the war in Iran, war in Gaza. Lindsay Graham knew that. He understood it. And, you know, it's a lesson that I think a lot of people would do well to heed. Well, so, Ben Shapiro there says there's two reasons why we shouldn't mesh our military with Israel. One, Lindsey Graham wanted it. Now, it's not the Israelis one, he doesn't care about that at all. Just that Lindsay Graham, in honor of this beloved senator, we should do it. And second of all, we gained so much from it.

And the Israelis are so good with technology. And let me ask you a question. If we needed technology of Israel or France or Holland or wherever, couldn't we just buy it? Yeah, absolutely. Oh, problem solved. Okay. They make it sound like it's like magical. And then, oh, no, we wouldn't want to make money off of it.

No, no, no, no, no. The only way we can get it is if we enmesh in our, so that we get a trillion dollars of your money every year. Anyways, so that's the media. But last one is actually going back to Netanyahu. Because he seems to have admitted exactly what the CIA is saying. So it's not like it took rocket scientists to figure this out. But let's show you the clip.

Prime Minister, will that drawing down of foreign aid from the United States to Israel be compensated by the proposal to have a merging of some sort between our Pentagon and your military? Yeah, I'm calling it from aid to partnership. So we take away the money that is given to Israel, which is one part. But the other part is we invest, co-invest in equal measures in the new technologies that are needed to give our military and your military the advantage. So we want, there are some unbelievable projects. So we invest jointly and take the fruits equally. You move from aid to partnership, and I think that represents what Israel is. And remember, the other thing is that we share with America unbelievable intelligence to save American life.

Colonel Keegan has said that when he was working in American intelligence, what Israel was giving the United States was worth, he said, five CIA's. Okay, a couple of lies and a funny truth statement in there. So we're done with eight. No, he asked for 10 more years of aid. For the Israelis, they're like, what? What? I mean, you owe us money forever. We're only asking you for 10 more years. And by the way, when that comes up, We'll ask for 10 more years and 100 more years. So they're not giving up the aid at all. That is a 100% lie.

Second of all, he says, we're going to invest in equal measures. No, they're not. They're going to put in a nickel and we're going to put in a trillion dollars. That's an utter lie. But the one part that was true is he said, we give America unbelievable intelligence. It's true. You should never believe the intelligence to Israelis give us because it's been wrong every single time. Wrong accidentally.

So that leads me to the last two questions here, Ida. So number one, they say, oh, but we're going to give you great. intelligence, so don't worry, but the intelligence we've gotten from them has been. Iranians can't close the Strait of Hormuz. Their regime will collapse immediately. Iraq has weapons of mass destruction. So isn't that a second disadvantage to this deal that our systems are going to be infiltrated with nonsense, totally wrong information from the Israelis?

And then secondly, since Netanyahu is saying it on air, and the CIA has a report, on it. Isn't American media the last people to acknowledge, yes. This is obviously a trick to get us to spend all of our money for Israel's military. Yeah, on the first question, that's right. I'm not sure if a lot of Americans know that there's actually part of why there's some extra anti-Israel sentiment in agencies like the CIA is because, like, you know, like, is just kind of known as incompetent. And so that is like one frustration. That's kind of funny that you see in the national security establishment is like,

they just don't think Israel has the best and brightest on the case. And so, you know, that kind of relates to what you're saying about, you know, how often their intelligence is just wrong, blatantly wrong. And then for the second question, yes, I would say the media, mainstream media, and I guess just like allied, you know, Democratic and Republican officials are kind of like the last people in institutions to really acknowledge reality. And I think one of the things that's so concerning about, like, this assessment that I reported on is the strategy, it's kind of smart by shifting away from those direct votes on aid, which are becoming more and more politically contentious and just difficult to do. And the shift to just like merging militaries and tech and defense, it makes it much harder for the general. public to track. It makes for like a much more complex narrative.

Like just an up and down vote on an arms package is just easier to kind of follow and see. And so they're just trying to keep this going on forever in increasingly sneaky ways. And I find that very concerning because it does make it more difficult to report out. Yeah. So by the way, I just want to clarify, I don't think they give us wrong intelligence because they're incompetent. I think they give us wrong intelligence on purpose. No, yes. No, of course. I was just a fun little historical beef. Yeah. So all their intelligence just coincidentally winds up pointing in a direction of us having to attack their neighbors so that they could take their land. I know, just a wild coincidence. Anyways,

I'm glad to see that there's still American reporters left and that there's Americans left in the CIA. So Ida Chavez, thank you. Everybody to check out Capital and Empire on Substack. We appreciate you. Great reporting. Thank you. All right. Terrific. All right.

We'll come right back. And when we do, Donald Trump takes corruption to a whole new level. This one goes to 11. We'll explain when we come back. If you're Christian, in fact, I will fight for you to have your religious liberty and practice your Christianity. I believe in that. I don't believe in Christianity,

which means that you do not get to dictate the way I live my life based on your religion. I don't care what the Bible says. You have every right in the world. All those women who identify with your religion have every right in the world to not get an abortion, to not take birth control. But they do not have the right to dictate my life.

And what I decide to do with my body, I don't care about your goddamn religion. I'm so tired of having non-stop conversations about what the Bible says. You live your life in the way that you interpret the Bible. Again, I don't care, but you don't get to take the Bible and tell me, while the Bible says this, in this chapter and this verse, I don't care. I don't care. I don't believe in it.

And I have the right based on our Constitution to not believe in it. That's been left unscathed. Ain't a whole long left. I don't know why they need any more bomb. Let us be clear. The United States provided $18 billion in military aid to Israel. Netanyahu indiscriminate bombardment have killed more than 50,000 civilians, 60% of whom are women, children, paramedics, and journalists.

All of this is against basic human decency. You don't starve children with absolutely no humanitarian aid getting used. into Gaza. It is a war crime. It is illegal for the United States government to provide Israel with more offensive weapons. It will not forgive us. Read with us. Of course, she's at Rebel H. Hugh and also on Indisputable. Check out all those shows. All right. So Sharon, I'm going to jump right into the next story. So it turns out every night Donald Trump demands an update. Is it on the war? Well, that would make sense. No, it turns out, No, it's not on the war, on the economy, right?

Immigration, no. On how much money that they're shaking down corporate bosses for. And the person that he talks to every night, his nickname for her is the princess of darkness. Boy, is that the appropriate name for this story. So Sharon's going to tell us all about how this corruption works and how much they've raised and how they did it. So Sharon, give us the facts. It's fascinating. He's quite disciplined in this area, Jenk. According to the Wall Street Journal, Donald Trump calls his fundraiser Meredith O'Rour,

almost every night like clockwork asking who gave, who didn't, telling her to ask for more. For some donors, the ask is five million for others, it's 50 and she has a simple pitch. She's got it down packed. It's this. This is very important to the president, the boss, wants his money, she'll go on to say. So Trump calls her, as Jenks said, the Prince of Darkness, because she is such a killer with donors, if you will. The checks are rolling in, as the reporting suggests. Softbank put 50 million toward Trump's library.

Apple gave roughly 25 million for his ballroom. Microsoft 10, Amazon 5, Meta recently dropped another $10 million on a Trump-aligned committee. All told more than $800 million since he took office. That's a record. There is no sitting president who has ever pulled in these sums for his own pet projects. And for most of it, the public never gets to see who gave or where it went. No law requires that if you can believe it. Spokesperson for Trump says he, quote, can't be bought.

But look at the timeline here. We'll go through it. Tobacco executives met Trump in May. got promises on vaping and the FDA. They kicked in millions shortly after. FDA lifted restrictions on flavored vapes and its chief was gone. And there's Lockheed. They gave millions tied to the 250th anniversary.

In June, the Pentagon handed them a contract worth up to $35 billion. That's weeks later, Lockheed and agreed to pay for Trump's new White House helipad. This is so transactional. Donation, favorable ruling, contract, one company. Chairman put it plainly this way. Give the money and you're on a list. Don't and you are crossed off the list. And remember, this is the guy who ran in 2016 on something about draining the swamp,

who called Super PACs, a scam it was. And a decade later, he's the one on the phone every night asking, who hasn't paid yet? It is remarkable, as I said, Jang. the discipline is real here. You can't take it with you, but then I guess I never did understand this level of greed. What say you? Yeah, so it's read just like the mafia, right?

The boss wants his money. He wants a cut, okay? If you're going to get the $35 billion contract, I need a $5 million helipad, and I need money to the ballroom. The boss wants to dance with the lady. Okay, you're gonna have to give it to us. So there's a donation before, there's the donation after. And sometimes as the article explained, that, you know, donor will donate and then they'll

get a phone call from Trump, which is like the, you know, a part of how this works. Okay, now you get to ask the mob boss for a favor, right? But then when they get on the phone with Trump, he asks him for even more money. Because it's a shakedown, right? And he's like, I run the place. And if you want these government contracts, whether you earned them or you didn't, whether they're good for the American people or not, you're gonna have to kiss the ring and give me my bag of money, okay?

And so yeah, I mean, train the swap was hilarious. And a lot of people have caught onto that, but some still haven't. I mean, if this ain't corruption, what is? So, and then the other part of his sharing that you alluded to there, but I wanted to emphasize is, if you didn't notice, one of the donors. not only got whatever they wanted from the FDA, that was the tobacco companies who were like, oh, the vaping for the kids that's hurting them. Shut up.

Who cares about American kids? Look at Epstein. You think we care about American kids? No, sell them dangerous products. And Trump's like, where's the money, huh? Oh, you got to give me the money? Okay, fine. Who's this kid, give the vapes to the kids, okay?

And then on top of that, though, they're like the FDA chief. We don't like that he was honest. That's it. Get rid of him. Okay, we're done with him now. Okay, hey, go, where's my new money? I got rid of that honest son of a bitch. I throw him into the swamp. So is this what you voted for if you're a Trump voter? And you're telling me that if Biden did this, that you wouldn't be enraised? Come on, come on. So if anyone who's being honest and paying attention realizes that Donald Trump was a con man, he's been a con man from day one, he was never going to drain the swamp. He was going to fill the swamp. He's never going to end the wars.

He was going to create even more endless wars in the Middle East as he's done now. He's lied about every single thing. And it's always been about only one guy, Donald Trump. Yeah. I watched him in a, you know, sit around that long table at Camp David today with all of his minions around him, his cabinet members, talking about how that fund for the J-6ers has nothing to do with him. Everything always has something to do with him. And as remarkable as the Wall Street Journal's reporting was on this, this mob-like transactional

relationship he has with his, his princess of darkness. The losers is what is also very interesting here because the people who don't capitulate are punished. They get nothing and then they get punished some more. And perhaps we don't know all about those losers. Some of them probably you don't even exist anymore or their companies. It's just remarkable. It's remarkable that this kind of detail is out there and he's still, he's still at it. He's still in the chair. Yeah, so last two things on it sharing.

So it isn't just like the helipad that he wanted and, you know, of course, in a different context, guitar game of $400 million jet. The Israeli family, the Edelson's gave him 300 over 300 million dollars for his campaigns. But it's also personal money, right? He's probably going to keep the chat anyway. But on top of that, last year he made $1.4 billion in his crypto company. What does his crypto company do? Nobody knows.

Like, he has a media company. They made like $3 million in revenue and lost $700 million. What is that? That's not a company. Okay. But the entire time, Trump is taking it, put it in his pocket. could take it, put it in $1.4 billion. Where did it come from?

Oh, we don't know, it's crypto. Oh, everybody's bribing him, flat out bribing him. So I don't know if there'll ever be accountability after he leaves office. I know that of course, if we can show and prove, oh, here's the money from here, it went into his pocket and then he get a favor for them as the president that he shouldn't have done. It's on behalf of the American people. You know what Trump and his remaining cult will do, right? There isn't as many of them as there used to be, but they'll cry.

I'm like, ah, a law fair, just because he stuck $1.4 billion in bribes. And he sold out the American people. They'll be like, oh, no, our beloved, precious Donald Trump, he's the victim. He's not the victim. He's the mob boss. And so he couldn't have lied to you more. if he tried. And he has tried. He is a gigantic liar. And so right now our government is up for sale. And last part of it, Sharon, is that when you give contracts based on favors to a individual

rather than who earn the contracts. So is it going to the best company that's going to deliver the best results for the American people when we make a deal with them? No. So the American people or an afterthought here. So they don't, and besides which, they don't have to make a great product. They just have to bribe Trump. So then they have no incentive to make a good product as long as they keep bribing the president. And whether it's campaign contributions or his ballroom or his helipad or directly into

his crypto company. And the thing that's haunting is all these giant companies that we were told by our corporate media who are other giant companies told us, oh, these are great companies and they wouldn't do anything wrong. They're, you know, stalwarts. They're, you know, good citizens of America. And they're like, oh, there's a fascist in charge who's taking bribes. Oh, yeah, sign me up.

Five million, five and can I hear ten? Can I hear 20? They all lined up the apples and the Facebooks and the Amazon's. And they're like, oh, yeah, oh, goddamn right, we'll participate in corruption. And we're lucky that Trump's an idiot, but the next time someone who's like 20% smarter gets in and does the same thing, apparently all of our corporations, American corporations, they're not, they're multinational corporations owned by people across the world. They will betray us and they will do the bribery and the corruption every single time.

They are not patriots, they're not humans, we need to make sure that these corporations served the American people, not vice versa, where we're all serving corporate power and the disgusting corrupt criminals like Donald Trump that they put into office. All right, we're out of time here on this segment. So let's take a break here. And when we come back, we'll tell you about how big oil is also robbing us blind while they're making record breaking profits. All right, on Twitch Green, New Dealer Dragon says Israel gets all the representation without any

taxation. Ben Jammin writes in on t.yt.com, Sharon, Sharon, Sharon, Sharon. Dave and Terry writes, and it was great when Zoran Mamdani won in New York City, knowing how much money Israel lost. It'll be even better when Abdul El Saeed wins, knowing they lost more money. I agree on all of that. Mr. Fongastic Dragon says, the American people are all starting to awakening. That crap will no longer work, and this power comes from our brothers and sisters at

IT and other real journalists out there. We are all with you. Never stop the fight for truth, all true American heroes to help free us all. Well, that's beautiful. Thank you for saying that. I really appreciate it. And we do need it because we also get commentary from the establishment. Oh, you guys are ridiculous.

You're now banished, okay? You're not legitimate anymore. If you're not kissing Israel's ass, you're not legitimate. Yeah, okay, you can take that legitimacy and shove it right up your corrupt asses. Okay, Pedro writes in about Haley Stevens. Midwestern Twang, the latest polls from the Michigan Senate race have the dark horse, Dr. Abdul Al-Said ahead by at least 10 points. If we were still in the prior Trump Biden era, I'd say they've been drinking heavily. But maybe times have changed.

Maybe independents now see the past the horse jockey handicapped, past the Fool's Prize winning ticket, scooped from easy television commercials, priming minds into a mob collective TV block insurmountable till now. and instead actually see natural graft through online news outlets like the young Turks and breaking points, which have been preaching to tens of millions for years, or maybe now we feel the squeeze in our pocketbooks coming from brash, unapologetic incompetency. All right, back on TYT, Jenkins, sharing with you guys. I was just during the commercial break, if you're a member through t.wit.com slash join. I read your comments and we interact.

And I was reading a member on t.wit.com, Pedro's comments. I just wanted to say, I didn't get to finish it all, it was long, but Pedro was kind of poetic what you wrote. And I appreciate it, and I appreciate you calling us out. And by the way, including breaking points as well for doing really great work on getting you guys the truth to the best of our abilities. So thank you. All right, Sharon, we got another story for you. Let's do this. The president was right to strike back against Iran.

I think we need to continue to hit them hard. We need to keep the embargo in place, which is devastating their economy. We need to keep the straight open to keep costs down for our Kansansans and all Americans. I've been in favor from the very beginning going back to April to finishing our military campaign, maybe two or three more weeks of intensive bombing that reduces their ability to threaten our troops in the region and that reduces their ability to stop shipping through the straight of our moves. Can they still harass shipping? Yes, but we have the ability working with our partners to keep the straight open, to keep the flow of oil out, to keep prices down for our Kansansans and all Americans.

And then we can keep the embargo in place in the long run. So that was Tom Cotton, Senator from Haifa telling us how great Israel's war is and that it's a good thing we're doing this war because it's going to keep prices down. Has that been our experience? Well, apparently not because Sharon's about to tell you how much money the oil companies have been making because oil prices have been so high during this war. And remember, I'm going to tell you at the end how much money we give to the oil companies as a gift because of disgustingly corrupt politicians like Tom Cotton.

So Sharon, give us the facts. Well, here it is, Jank. If the United States could force open the Strait of Harmuz, we would have done it already. That's point number one. There are reports of limited traffic through the Strait, but Iran is still exerting influence over the Strait. And today, the IRGC stated that Iran struck two tankers under US escort. With the straight still grid locked, the Trump administration is scrambling for a way out, of course, but just check out how they're spinning it today.

On Friday, Trump brought us cabinet together at the Camp David retreat in Maryland to try and chart a path forward for the war. White House press secretary Caroline Levitt said at a briefing last week that the cabinet meeting would be quote, a lot of fun and something different for the cabinet to experience together. According to the ExxonMobil CEO, Darren Woods, the Trump administration needs to get their act together and they need to to do it fast. In the long term, that resource in the region has to get to market. The straight has to open up.

It is the main artery of supply for the world that powers economic growth everywhere. And so eventually those barrels are going to have to flow. And the only question is how long will it take to get to some resolution here so that the straight opens up and that production can come back line on in the Middle East. But I think medium to long term, the world needs that resource. And I think governments will find a way to make sure that resources available to the world. Sounds like they're struggling. They can barely get by.

There's not much time left. We should dwell on ExxonMobil for a little longer, though, because they've been making money hand over fist. Exxon posted profits for the quarter of $14.5 billion. It's more than doubling from about $7.1 billion in the same quarter last year. CNBC with the reporting, just one quarter. That's just three months, $14.5 billion. And if you think that's a lot of money waiting to you here, how Chevron's doing.

Well, let's see, their net income in quarter two of 2026 or to 12 billion, a nearly 400% increase compared to 2.5 billion in the same period last year. It is just remarkable, and that they are on television giving the rest of us any kind of financial advice or a state of the union, if you will, about how their companies are doing and that they're getting away with it, Jane. This is incredible war is really good for that. This is great.

Yeah. So first of all, I want people to realize this is per quarter. So for the year, Chevron is going to make about $50 billion, not in revenue, which would already be a shocking number in profit, 50 billion in profit. Exile Mobile is gonna make about 60 billion in profit for the year. So if these quarterly numbers hold. So that is a shocking amount of money. Now if there was no war and they didn't push for the war and hey, look, things happen and

they want their company and they're not doing anything wrong and they made this spectacular profit, okay, that's capitalism, no problem, right? But did you know how much money the oil companies get from us as a gift on top? Okay, well let me tell you. Oil Change International explains the fossil fuel industry is set to receive $34.8 billion in handouts every year. Over four billion of which were added by Trump and Republicans this year. These handouts have more than doubled since 2017, the last time Oil Change International

study the issue. What? They're making $60 billion, $50 billion apiece in profits, and then they're taking money out of our pockets. A subsidy is American taxpayers going, here, Exxon Mobile Chevron, I don't need this money, I'm good, I'm not having any trouble with my rent or food or vacation or anything, affording a house, I got three house, don't worry about. Here, take my money because you're not making enough. Do they need $61 billion in profit? is this? Well, this is a robbery. So they continue to explain fossil fuel companies who spend millions every year to rig our political system in their favor. That's true. Receive a 30,000 percent return on investment in the forms of tax breaks, direct appropriations, cheap access to public

lands, and other handouts from the federal government. So they spend millions of dollars donating to people like Donald Trump. If you remember on the campaign trail in 2024, Trump, Trump said in a public event, hey, oil companies, why don't you give me a billion dollars? In campaign contributions, now they didn't give anywhere near that amount, but they gave tens of millions of dollars that used to be called bribery, but now our Supreme Court says no, that is just a human being whose first name is Exxon and whose last name is mobile having a conversation with another person and it has no harm at all. And it doesn't affect what they get back at all.

Oh, they happen to get back $35 billion and $30,000% return on investment. Well, golly, gee, that's just a coincidence. And of course, the only people who can believe such a ridiculous fantasy are deeply corrupt Supreme Court justices, deeply corrupt politicians, and deeply corrupt national media, who all go along with this fiction. The reality, Sharon, is this is a robbery, absolute highway robbery in the middle of record profits because of a war that was started by both the oil company lobby, the defense contractor lobby, and of course the Israeli lobby, we now on top of their record profits have to give them $35 billion out of our pockets. Yeah, and even though the numbers have doubled since what, 2017, the truth is that this is happening across party. lines across administrations. This is just what we're doing. In some ways, believe it or not, I actually thank Donald Trump for being so ugly and loud with it. Because maybe more people

pay attention and there'll be something that we can do about it. Finally, it doesn't have to continue this way. But it is sick when Americans have to go to emergency rooms because you cut a few health subsidies because, you know, we can't afford that, but we can afford to give these people who are already shaking us down this amount of money consistently. It is, I wish there was another word I could think of instead of just stick up robbery, shakedown. I mean, it's just gross. Yeah, but no one on cable news has been able to piece it together.

New York Times, Washington posted like, hmm, I wonder why they're getting 35 billion in subsidies. I bet it's because they're barely surviving. And if the American people didn't help them, these poor, poor disadvantaged companies would go out of business. And then what would we do? I mean, this is just insanity. Our system is open bribery, open auction. It's disgustingly corrupt, and they continue to rob us every single day. So vote out all the bums.

If you think your incumbents are good guy, you know, look, there's a couple left like Roe Kana and a couple of others. But if you just generically believed media that your congressman is fighting for you, that's a joke. 95% of Congress people, including very, very likely your congressperson. It doesn't matter which party they're in. They're crooks, and their job is to rob you and to give it to their donors. And that's what they've done with the oil companies on a grand scale. All right, so from one, that's bad news. Now let's go to some good news.

So the Iran war was going to go easy, and that's what I was told by a bunch of right-wing influencers. Trump knows what he's doing. He's going to get in and get out. This is not going to be a prolonged war in the Middle East. It's not going to affect prices at all. Oh, it did? Uh-oh, what are we going to do now? So here comes more MAGA Civil War because even some of the most enthusiastic cheerleaders

for Donald Trump's war are starting to put their pom-poms away and take off their skirts. Sharon, tell us all about it. Well, they are changing their outfits and war. When the Iran War first started, Jank, it was met with a flurry, as she said, support from MAGA die-hard. But as the war drags on, polling increasingly shows its unpopularity. Those same cheerleaders now seem considerably more hesitant. As media matters for America reports, although the war has created some fractures in right-wing media at the outset of the conflict, it had no shortage of boosters, either Iran hawks or

MAGA hacks. Now, as the Iranian government has survived months of bombing and operationalized, it's previously unrealized control of the Strait of Harmoos, some of those pundits are scaling back their ambitions. And to demonstrate what's going on here, let's watch two clips from Benny Johnson. The first is from the early days in the war. The second is from this past weekend. We're going to start with this. Here's from yesterday. Why not? We're just going to have a couple laugh. We've been having some dark shows, some bombing war,

death, Straits of Hormuz, can we rename the Straits of Hormuz, the Straits of America? Please. Are we there yet? So there we go. United States and Iran both want to return to an interim ceasefire agreement and negotiators are discussing a compromise that would see Iran oversee vessel transit

through the Strait of Hormuz with fewer restrictions on shipping. The Associated Press said, citing regional official, involved in the mediation efforts. I just don't care. I don't care. I don't care. Let me say it again. I don't care. I don't care. Just keep the boats moving through the Strait of Hormuz. I didn't care before the war. I don't care now. I want peace. I don't want economic collapse. I don't want political collapse in my country. If I ran overseas the boats in the Strait of Hormuz, that doesn't bother me one bit. I'm not going to lose any sleep over it.

Okay, so Johnson is far from the only one who's changing his tune. Back in April, Newsmax Carl Higbee defended the Trump administration as they refused to explain the goals of the Iran war. You know what? The Pentagon and Trump and the state, they owe us no explanation on what they plan to do. Why? Because that also tells the enemy. I mean, let's not just tell the world I plan. How about that? You know, enough, because Trump announced what's going to happen in vague terms Tuesday by 8 p.m. Okay, but now you need to fast forward to last week. Higby appears to have also had a change of heart.

Listen. You want close to totaling, I think it's like 80 something to $100 billion. Man, look, I will pay my taxes twice this year to help with that nut. If you tell Congress that this is what we want to do and this is how we're going to achieve it. Like the first mission in Iran, Midnight Hammer, there was objective, there was plan, there was action and completion. And then you go get Congress to buy in and they declare war. And you bury that entire country under a blanket of American induced dust.

I will support my people going in there and snatching bodies in the middle of the night and taking their oil fields and turning every single power plant, civilian or military, into a parking lot. Pete, I will support you no matter how many war crimes the international community thinks we would be committing. But do it right, which I know you want to do, man. You have said it, and I know you, and I know because you were in that 20-year fight, that endless war in Iraq and Afghanistan right next to me. Give NATO the finger and critics nowhere to hide. For God's sake, give those families on the tarmac today a reason their children died. We'll end with the Daily Wirehosts.

Michael Knowles, take a look at where he, what, rather, he sounded like in March versus what he sounds like now. Panicans destroyed again. For now, for now. Of course, it's a live situation. As I've said from the beginning of the Iran, were very, very high stakes for President Trump. But as of now, all the Panacans predictions have been wrong. Like all of them.

The most recent prediction, based on oil prices spiking a couple days ago, was that the Strait of Hormuz was going to be closed. Oil was going to go up not just to $115 a barrel, but to $150 a barrel maybe. And this was going to plunge the world into a global recession. and, you know, it was all over. It's just an indication. It's a leading indicator that the appetite for this war is waning,

not just with the broader public, but even among the legislators. So I agree in principle. It would be good to wrap up the war. But this is the problem with war is, as we now repeat almost every day in the show from Machiavelli, war begins at any man's will. It does not end at any man's will. So somebody tell your boss, right? Somebody tell his boss.

In any event, this shifting rhetoric shows the delicate balancing act, right-wing media are engaged in. The hawks, they want to escalate. The hacks want to continue to ingratiate themselves with the administration, while even Trump voters are growing more opposed to another forever war. So now what this means for Republicans on a broader, broader, rather scale, especially going into the midterms, is still to be determined. Doesn't look good. So watching the defining political movement that has dominated U.S. politics over a decade fracture over this, I think we all have to agree. It's a fascinating watch, gang.

Yeah. So this goes deeper than earlier rounds of the Mago Civil War. So I'm going to explain why in a second. But first, I just got to have to have some fun with all those comments there. Higby was like, we don't really know stinking plan. If you tell a plan, you know, then the enemy knows. You don't want that to me to know. Now he's like, well, you gotta tell us what you're doing.

I mean, if we don't know what you're doing, what do we spend all this money for? Oh, huh, I thought we didn't need to know a plan. I thought the Hague said then Trump had this thing figured out. What happened? Carl, okay, he's one of like the worst people in media. And even at this late date, when he's like, oh, I mean, what's happening? I gotta know what's happening. He's still like, well, we gotta turn him into nuclear dust and we have to crush their bones and kill all the civilians, right?

You're a sick, disgusting person who brings shame to our country. And so I don't want anybody outside of America thinking that guy's normal. He's radical and not like most decent moral Americans. Okay, and then Michael knows, the panacans. You guys are all panicking. And all of your predictions have been wrong. Oh my God, their predictions were right. I'm panicking, we gotta get out of this war.

I'm gonna tell you why in a second. But I'm loving this. And then Benny Johnson, like, ah, yeah, man, let's go to the war. It's gonna be fun. Trump told me to tell me that it's awesome. And Israel told me to tell you it's awesome. Now he's like, I don't care, I don't care, we have to leave right away. We have to leave right away.

You know what, Iran charging a toll? I'm okay. Iran didn't control the strait of hormones before the war. So he's now okay with a position that is worse off than when we started. We've accomplished absolutely nothing in Iran. And he's saying, let's leave without accomplishing anything without worrying about their nuclear program and let them charge a toll on the straight of horro moves. Is he a panic, and it's starting to sound like, that's beyond my position. Okay.

Now, do you want to know why? Because of what Benny said there, they're worried about economic collapse, which we're all worried about, and they know it as well as we do. The only people not telling you about it are the people in the media, and they're like, oh, yeah, well, the war is not going well, blah, blah, blah, right? But they're not telling you, hey, if this war for Israel continues, then oil is going to go past 100 and it's going to go on 120 and inflation is already rising. So that we just got the inflation numbers, they're bad. The Federal Reserve didn't raise interest rates, so that's going to keep inflation going up.

If the war continues or goes to another level, oh boy, it is going to be a disaster. But that's not what they care about. They screw over the American people all the time, right? No, he's worried about the second collapse, the political collapse that he mentioned. Because this is now way deeper than the original rebellion. The original rebellion was by people that were generally independence and some portion of MAGA that still had an open mind. And as we told you, they were not an occult.

And all of those guys already rebelled and left, right? So they're now polling for Trump with independence is at negative 51. Wow, I've never seen a number like that. Okay, so some people said, oh no, if they voted for Trump, they're never going to abandon Trump. Well, I said they would and now it's at negative 51. Okay, you could make whatever you want of that, but the bottom line is good, those guys are not supporting Trump or the war or Israel or any of that stuff anymore. Now there's still about two thirds of MAGA left, which is remarkable.

I'm not even talking about independents or others that voted for Trump. We're talking about core MAGA and a third of them have already left, there's only two thirds left. And that's why Trump's all the way down of 32%. And so two thirds of magos still like, I know I'm paying more for gas and I can't afford anything, but my love for Trump is greater than my love for myself or my family. Okay, whatever, dude. But now these guys, Knowles, Benny Johnson, Carl Higbee, et cetera, are propagandists. They're not supposed to break at all. Their job is to do propaganda for Donald Trump. So why are they breaking?

Because what's happening, Sharon, is that the numbers that they're seeing for the Republican Party in the midterms are devastating. So what these guys are super panicked about is that they're going to get wiped out. And then they're going to lose power. And they use that power not just on behalf of Israel, but on behalf of royal companies. They get $35 billion in subsidies, big pharma. All of the corrupt donors that these guys represent are gonna get harmed if Trump and the Republicans get slaughtered in elections And that's why it's gone as deep as the paid propagandists that you just saw also Laura Ingraham on Fox News also Mike Johnson starting to say maybe we should inch out of the room and Israel is his number one lifetime donor

So this is as deep as it gets and I think it's because they're realizing this is gonna might cause the collapse of the entire Republican Party, because at this point, even their own voters, even their most loyal voters realize they're giant liars. And they got us into a disastrous war on behalf of another country. So wait, if they're this low, how much time does the Republican party have left? I mean, when does the bottom really pull out? And this thing ends. And we can kind of inch back, reclaim some of what was stolen from us. So 26 is the beginning, but they hit the iceberg in 28. So let's see how it goes.

All right, bonus episodes coming up next. John Adderwell is coming back. So stay right here and we'll see you on Monday. Bye bye.
