The Young Turks - Donny's Bright Idea - September 8, 2026
Episode Date: September 9, 2026Iran is warning that a new U.S. attack could trigger strikes on Gulf energy infrastructure and American forces, raising the stakes for the global oil market. Meanwhile, Canada’s retaliatory ta...riffs on $27.6 billion in U.S. goods take effect as the trade dispute deepens.

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.
They gaze upon your Semites, Yosemites.
Well, hello.
Kurtz, Jank Uger, Anna Kusperin with you guys.
So it's a big, big, busy Monday week.
Well, actually, it's a Tuesday.
Happy Labor Day, everybody.
I hope you enjoyed it.
Now everybody back to laboring for Israel.
of you guys worked out because fitness is fascism. I might cover that tomorrow, so stay tuned.
Back to you, Jake. There's a lot of fascism going around. I don't know if fitness is among
him. But anyways, okay, on today's show, Netanyahu knew about October 7th, chose not to tell
his own intelligence group. And there's a second devastating part of that article,
huge article out of Heretz and Israel. We'll cover that a little bit later in the program.
Number two, the Dems secret strategy to make sure they lose.
So they don't just, they're not gonna accidentally lose.
They have a plan to lose.
They're good at that.
Yeah, yeah, that's their expertise to be fair to them.
So we'll explain that a little bit later in the show.
And then now this, this is amazing.
Now apparently the phrase free Palestine is anti-Semitic.
So if you want to free Palestinians and you do not share an
Israel's bigotry, you're a big.
You're a big.
In other words, rebranding anti-Semitism as a good thing, because you should want freedom
for all people, whether they're Jewish, whether they're Muslim, whether they're Palestinian,
whether they're Israeli.
But we live in a topsy-turvy world, so the Zionists are working over time to essentially
rebrand anti-Semitism is a good thing.
Well, that's an interesting take on it.
I don't know, maybe I'll start calling ZTN.
But Zetian's busy at work.
That's the Zionist thug network that exists inside this country.
And they're trying to cancel McLemore for having the temerity to think that the Palestinians
might be equal to the Israelis.
No, they are inferior.
And if you don't say they're inferior, that means you're an anti-Semite.
Okay, so we'll get to that story a little bit later.
But first, disastrous developments on the war.
The US military says it sank three Iranian oil tankers on Saturdays on Saturdays on Saturdays.
After the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps launched ballistic missiles towards two U.S.
Navy warships.
It is the first sets of strikes we've seen between the U.S. and Iran in several weeks now.
And that in and of itself is concerning, especially as neither Tehran nor Washington show any
indication that they're about to make concessions, to get back to the memorandum of understanding
that was supposed to end this war, or to get back to negotiations.
Isn't it possible gas prices could go up even more?
Well, if you look at, I look, I don't want to have an opinion on that.
You don't need an opinion on that.
There's facts.
And the answer is yes, gas prices have already gone up tremendously.
We exchanged strikes with Iran over the weekend, as you're seeing there.
So we sank three of their tankers.
We'll tell you more about it in a second.
But there are two potentially disastrous developments there.
The one you just heard, which is, oh, they're firing ballistic missiles at our ships?
Are we sure they're not going to hit one of them?
And then there's a second disaster, but let's give you the whole story.
Look, there are strikes being exchanged and it's really hard to keep track of what's going
on, but I'm gonna do my best to catch you guys up on everything, including the context
that led up to where we are today.
Now let me start with the latest news, which does not bode well for the United States
military or our secretary of war, Pete Heggzith, because it turns out, and this appears
to be confirmed, the US media is even reporting on it at this point, Iran's IRGC,
has captured a U.S. submarine in the Strait of Hormuz.
Now, at first, the U.S. didn't say anything about this.
Now you're seeing some comments from anonymous Trump administration officials, attempting
to downplay this as like, not a big deal, not a big deal.
This unmanned submarine is actually some of our older technology.
Is it?
I don't think so.
Let's get to the details.
Let's put up this post on X.
Iran's IRGC Navy says, Navy, I was like.
to believe that Iran's Navy was obliterated, but okay.
That it doesn't exist anymore.
Exactly.
That's weird.
Iran's IRGC Navy says they captured a US submarine in the Strait of Hormuz.
It is a dive DL autonomous submarine valued at $2.5 million.
Hey, American people, congratulations, we paid for that.
Statement number 12 from IRGC Navy, dear people of Iran, by the special grace of Almighty God,
the fighters of the IRGC Navy through a complex intelligence and operational surveillance
Trapped one of the most modern intelligent, unmanned underwater vehicles of the American
Terrorist Army at the entrance of the Strait of Hormuz in the early hours of this morning.
This intelligent underwater vehicle possesses the latest technology in the field of underwater
systems in the world and was delivered to the fleet of the American Terrorist Army in 2025.
Just to give you guys a few more details about it, let's put the next post in this thread up on the screen so you guys can see
see the unmanned submarine in question.
Dive LD, the US Navy's new autonomous underwater vehicle.
It's a large autonomous underwater vehicle initially developed by dive technologies after
the acquisition of the company, its development continued within the Andgeril Industries
Group.
Okay, so it does appear that this isn't just Iran, you know, pretending like they did something
they didn't actually do.
It does appear that they managed to take control of.
this autonomous U.S. submarine. Now, there's also some indication that Iran shut down an MQ1 drone
with its air defense system. So this all happened today. So today, militarily speaking,
not a great day for the U.S. military. The U.S. has also decided to slap sanctions on dozens
of Iranian airlines, meaning civilian airlines, they're not really attacking military assets or
anything like that. Treasury Secretary Scott Besant said in a statement, let this be a warning
to anyone doing business with Iran's remaining airlines, all of which we sanction today.
You are at risk of being cut off from the global financial system.
Now, Treasury officials also accused Iran's commercial airlines of supporting Iran's
destabilizing activities, including transporting weapons and personnel.
Obviously, they didn't provide any evidence to support that claim.
But nonetheless, the agency also blocked the assets of companies in Turkey, Kazakhstan,
Malaysia and the UAE, that Treasury officials have provided goods or services to Mahan Air,
an Iranian airline that has been subject to U.S. sanctions since 2019.
Additionally, today, it was reported by the Wall Street Journal that Iran carried out some
offensive, not defenses, offensive strikes against the United States,
that the U.S. was kind of unwilling to take or make any notice of or take any,
They didn't make any statements about.
They denied that these types of attacks were taking place, but the Wall Street Journal has confirmed it.
Iran launched a missile attack against a U.S. Navy ship on Monday after firing ballistic missiles
at an aircraft carrier and a guided missile destroyer over the weekend.
I'm gonna give you more details on that in just a minute.
Now luckily no American warships were actually struck, and I do believe that that was very
much on purpose.
I do believe that the reason why Iran carried out the strikes the way that they did is to
to send a message to the United States.
Right now they're engaged in a game of chicken.
And basically the US is letting, or Iran is letting the US know, your military, you're sold,
your service members who have been deployed on these carriers, they are sitting ducks.
You need to leave the region, because if you don't, we will intentionally strike.
I believe that's the message that they're trying to send.
So just to quickly go over the context, Jenk, for anyone who might have tuned out in the middle
of this war and you have no idea how we got here in the first place.
You know, the latest round of kinetic warfare between the United States and Iran began when
the U.S. carried out strikes against Iran in La Rock Island, something we covered extensively
on the show last week.
They claimed that they were targeting Iranian missile launchers on the island.
The IRGC said that they would retaliate, and they in fact did so by striking Jordan, the UAE,
and Kuwait.
Then the IRGC issued more warnings regarding vessels that traveled through the Strait of Hormuz
without their authorization.
And then later that day, following that threat, Iran made good on their promise.
And they hit two vessels, although it's kind of unclear whether they did so through mines
or through airstrikes.
Now this made the US look extremely clownish because the Trump administration had literally
just claimed victory in demining the Strait of Hormuz, essentially telling the global community
go ahead and transit through the strait.
We have deminded it, mission accomplished.
And then right after that, Iran strikes these vessels.
Now the US didn't respond to Iran initially, but then on September 4th, Iran targets two US ships.
But how Iran carried out the attack is important to understand, okay?
And this goes to what I was commenting on earlier.
Is Iran actually trying to strike the carriers or the US vessels?
Or are they trying to send a message?
And here to clarify that for us is Colonel Daniel Davis, take a look.
There were only two projectiles that were actually fired at the American warships.
Now, that got my attention right away because I thought, look, yeah, everybody knows that you're firing on an aircraft carrier strike group.
You know, they have interconnected, multi-layered air defenses.
I mean, they're literally designed for this.
And if you want to have any hope at all of penetrating that, you're going to have to have either some super sophisticated weapon or you're going to have to saturate it with overwhelming amount of projectiles.
You fire one or two, there's almost no chance it's going to get through because of the multi-layered
defenses that we have.
And yet, that's what was reported.
Now, the Americans did not sit back on that one.
And later, also on the 4th of September, they launched three vessels over the night of 4 to 5 September.
The United States launched attacks into three civilian tankers.
Now, you would think, if it's a normal war, then the United States would, again, go back and hit the IRGC.
They would hit their Navy, they would hit Army, they would hit command and control, they would hit missile launchers, they would hit communications towers, you name it. That's what you would expect to come next. But instead, the U.S. did what was not expected and it went after civilian tankers.

dream big and wake up better the headlines will still be there in the morning you might as well
wake up ready for them so iran carries out those strikes in order to send a message to the united
states and the u.s responds by sinking three civilian Iranian tankers and so sent com described the
ships as IRGC tankers, an apparent attempt to justify the attack on civilian vessels.
And then this is Graphics 6. At least two of them, the Downey and the Stark 1, are owned and managed
by the National Iranian Tanker Company. Sea Trade Maritime News reported that based on publicly
available data, it's unclear who owns or manages the third ship, the Kylo. So, so, Jank,
honestly, if you really take an objective look at what's going on, clearly Iran consistent,
targets U.S. military assets in the region, U.S. military bases in the Gulf. By the way,
to the point where now the U.S. is kind of openly discussing, leaving the region because
our military bases have been destroyed in our Gulf ally countries. And so then you look at,
you know, you just look at this asymmetrical situation in which the U.S. seems to just
be lashing out, striking whatever they can. It's not military assets most of the time.
We don't have the Strait of Hormuz open.
In fact, less vessels transited through the Strait of Hormuz over the weekend than previously.
So we're in a lot of trouble, but you don't get that sense from the comments coming out of the Pentagon and from Secretary of War Pete Hagsett.
Yeah, so I'll tell you two moments where everybody's gonna flip out.
But first, let's analyze what happened over the weekend.
So I agree with the general there.
They're doing something that he didn't, he might have explained in the rest of the interview,
but I'll call the Cyprus strategy.
So you fire only two ballistic missiles not to try to sink the ship, but to do two things.
One is a warning, right?
And that's what he was referring to.
But those warnings are never going to work, well, come back to that.
But the second thing you're doing is the Cyprus strategy, which is what the Turks did when
they invaded Cyprus.
First thing they did was they did this massive assault and they dropped paratroopers onto the island.
Or at least that's what the Greeks thought.
And the Greeks who were buried in the mountaintops started firing at the paratroopers.
Except they weren't paratroopers.
They were dummies.
And so they were just trying to figure out.
The Turks were trying to figure out where the Greeks had their sniper positions, right?
And then they bombed the hell out of the sniper positions and took the island immediately.
Okay, so what Iran is trying to do is how do we respond?
How do our ships respond to a ballistic missile attack?
And now they have their answer.
They know exactly how we respond.
So then they're gonna try to reverse engineer it and fire enough missiles the next time
that they get through, okay?
So that's how this game is played.
So now number two, they captured the unmanned submarine.
Anna's right, our excuses there were hilarious.
Like it's all doubted, and by the way, it had no intelligence on it at all.
It was just like the most useless thing we ever had, just floating around the area for no reason
at all.
No, it's worth $2.5 million.
It's stated-of-the-art technology.
They're reverse engineering it as we speak.
Yep.
Our racism is kind of catching up with us because the assumption in DC is always like,
oh, these dumb Muslims, they'll never figure it out.
We're so sophisticated and we have the best technology.
What do you mean capture one of our unmanned subs?
They can't do that.
What do you mean hit one of our ships?
Or bases, they can't hit our bases.
Well, Iran devastated our bases.
Our bases almost don't exist anymore in the Gulf.
Do you know that?
All the soldiers have run from the bases.
I don't mean them specifically, we asked them to move out, right?
Because they were getting killed.
Whoever didn't move out would get hit by Iran and would get killed.
And that's how we have the casualties that we have now.
So no, the Iranians have figured out many, many things because they're like other human beings.
They're not less intelligent than the super brilliant guys in the white
House, ironically, are actually some of the dumbest people in the world.
You mean Pete Hegesth isn't one of the most sophisticated, you know, strategic thinkers
in the Pentagon right now?
Yeah, the idea that Pete Heggseth, which I'm positive he has in his mind, that he's
so much more intelligent than the Iranian military.
It's hilarious.
It's so good.
It's so good.
I mean, it's embarrassing for the United States, of course, so I don't celebrate it.
But I mean, this is the kind of stuff, the bravado you see from Hegszith.
He said, quote, it's simple.
If Iran shoots at US ships, we will destroy and sink their oil tankers.
Okay, so they did sink three oil tankers over the weekend, which by the way, isn't great considering the fact that Iran did retaliate and continues to retaliate.
Wait until you get the breaking news that I'll give you in just a minute.
But also, we are in a very real crisis when it comes to the supply of oil.
And Iran is saying over and over again, we will target oil fields in the Gulf.
We will target oil and gas infrastructure in the Gulf.
We are not playing.
Dropside news, 10 minutes before we went live today reported this.
Iran has launched with IRGC linked outlets describe as its largest missile barrage since the 40-day war,
targeting US military positions in Jordan.
So they're destroying US military positions and military positions.
bases in the region.
Videos from Jordan show projectiles overhead.
Iranian outlets claim cluster munitions were used and that the Muwafak al Salty Air Base was targeted.
Okay guys.
So there's one more layer that Iran has and one more card to play that's actually devastating
and that's almost never talked about, but is almost certainly going to come up soon.
So first, I just want to say on what Anna pointed out.
It's a really great point.
Our number one problem when they closed the trade of Horm moves was the price of gas.
And it's driving Americans crazy.
It's hurting the global economy.
It's hurting the Republicans and the midterms, et cetera.
So when you take out their oil tankers, you only exasperate it.
That you make it worse, not better.
So that's not a brilliant move.
And I just want to note for the record, if they sank three of our ships,
Well, our reaction would have been like, how dare they, these monster terrorist savages?
We have to kill them all, right?
We sink three of their ships.
It was like, yeah, it's Tuesday, that's fine.
Okay?
I just want that noted for the record.
Of course.
Because if they do sink one of our ships, everybody will say it was a surprise attack.
We're six months into the war.
How could it be a surprise attack, right?
A war we launched against them.
And they will be outraged and say it's disproportionate.
Now in reality, as we've been documenting all along, the Iranians have been going along
maniacally proportionate to what they have gotten or less, right?
So they have never gone to disproportionate in the other direction.
But now it looks like that is where we're heading.
Okay, so number one, they're saying, okay, we're back at full war, there's no memorandum
of understanding, you keep hitting us, you keep blockading us, and you're sinking our ships,
And you won't stop attacking, you're bombing us nonstop, civilian areas, weddings,
oil infrastructure, you name it, you're bombing.
So okay, no holds barred.
So now we just tested your defense on the ships, and one day we're gonna sink one of your ships.
I said that from day one, I'd be shocked if it didn't happen, and that's because we're
too arrogant and we're too stupid and we can't get out of this stupid war, and most of all
we're captured.
So- Can I add one other thing, Jenk?
What I'm noticing is that, you know, Iran is slowly but surely pivoting or transitioning
to the mindset of, no, the midterms are coming up.
We want to cause as much political harm to Trump as possible.
So now we're gonna start doing offensive strikes rather than just responding to the United
States, right?
And by the way, the parliamentary speaker in Iran, Ghalibov, also issued this warning.
And I do think, you know, as they have in the past, they've made good on their promises.
So this is a warning that should be taken seriously by the Trump administration.
He says, quote, it's simple.
The oil and gas production chain here is sprawling, accessible, and exposed.
American oil and gas companies across these waters and facilities share that exposure.
Strike our assets and you get struck.
We've already proven it.
Ask the bases that are no longer viable, right?
So he's pointing to the bases that have been destroyed by the IRA.
in the past, he's promising to target oil and gas infrastructure in the region if the
US continues carrying out strikes against them.
And then on top of that, there is a reason to believe that we're now in a phase jank where
Iran doesn't want the war to end.
Yeah, well, so it's, yeah, I hear you, it's a tiny bit more complicated than that,
but let me build off of it.
So first of all, they realize now that proportional doesn't work.
They thought, hey, if we give them warning signs, we can do this.
Look at what we just did, all of your bases are gone, that America at some point will go,
oh, right, we're gonna run out of defensive missiles.
These guys can do a lot more damage than we realize.
The economy is badly heard, so hey, let's get out of here, right?
But America has not done that.
Why have we not done that?
Because we're not allowed to.
So nobody in the mainstream media takes into account the biggest factor of all, which is that Israel will not allow us to live.
No matter how dumb it is and how disastrous it is.
So they're like, yeah, but Israel basically is saying back to us, yeah, but that's damage done to you and to the Arab Gulf countries.
Why do we care?
It's no damage to us at all.
We want this war to be a disaster in a lot of ways.
We want a civil war in Iran or regime change in Iran, and we want to neutralize all of these regional actors.
So we're the only remaining superpower in the region.
So don't threaten us with a good time.
No, America, you're ordered to stay.
And if they sink one of our ships, the Israelis are going to dance live on TV.
They're going to be so ecstatic because they're like, ha, ha, now you're stuck forever,
fighting our war.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, you see Iran, evil, evil, evil, terrorist,
and all of American media will back them 200%.
They'll all pretend we didn't start the war, et cetera.
And they'll, and they can't wait to do that kind of Israeli propaganda on you guys.
And by the way, again, you never have to trust this because you'll see it with your own eyes.
When you see on cable news, them telling you that, oh my God, Iran attacked us out of nowhere.
And now that they sank a ship, we have to stay there and do a bigger launch and a bigger strike and maybe tactical nuclear weapons and maybe ground troops.
That's exactly right.
I mean, consider the fact that, again, Israel is the country that dragged the United States into this war.
We are fighting this war on behalf of Israel.
They're not sacrificing their soldiers.
They're not paying for it.
We are.
And this frees Israel up to do what?
To continue annihilating the Palestinians in Gaza, certainly, to continue annihilating the Palestinians
in the West Bank.
And then on top of that, what have they been doing over the weekend?
Annihilating the people of southern Lebanon.
Of course.
Crushing them, erasing more villages, historic sites in southern Lebanon.
That's what they're free to do as we are suffering the consequences of fighting their war against Iran.
a war that even if we were winning, there are no benefits of this war to us, the United
States of America.
Iran did not have the military capability to strike the United States.
And every time you hear these disgusting Zionists provide cover for the war, they bring
up what Iran did in the freaking 1980s.
I don't care.
I care about what's happening right now.
And what's happening right now is we are being dragged into conflicts and war by what
is considered our ally, should be considered our biggest.
enemy should be the country that we're actually at war with.
Okay, you're forcing me to go back to 1983 for a second, but then I want to speed up to
the timing of these elections.
So Hezbollah attacks us then back in 1983 because we were in Lebanon supporting Israel as
always, right?
Yeah, we should have been there.
Right, and so we get killed for no reason for Israel as always.
As always.
But what you might not know, so the reason they say, Iran's been attacking us for 47
years is because they had to go back 47 years to find an instance of Iran attacking us as opposed
to Israel, right?
But what you might not know is in 1985, two years after that, Israel made a deal with Iran.
You know that feeling when you're doing everything you're supposed to be doing, eating healthy,
working out, getting sleep, taking supplements?
And you still wonder, is any of this actually working?
Because doing all the right things doesn't always mean it's working for you.
That's why I'm excited about the true age tests from true diagnostic.
It uses epigenetics, which may sound complicated, but it's really about tiny chemical tags on your DNA.
that change in response to sleep, stress, diet, exercise, and your environment.
True age reads those tags to estimate how your body is aging.
And unlike many biological age tests, their methods are published in peer-reviewed scientific
journals and were developed with researchers at Harvard, Yale, and Duke.
You get a clear picture of where you are and where you can improve,
plus personalized recommendations around nutrition, exercise, sleep, supplements, and lifestyle.
The process is simple.
At home finger prick, send it back, get your report online in about three to four weeks.
So if you want to optimize your health, true age gives you a much clearer starting point.
So if you're serious about longevity or even just curious whether your body is aging faster or slower than your actual age, this is one of the easiest ways to find out.
Right now, go to truedaagnostic.com and use code TYT for 20% off your entire order.
That's true diagnostic.com code tYT for 20% off.
So then they broke that deal because they're Israeli and they always break every deal.
And then they, so they have had deals with Iran since then.
And military alliances with Iran.
You might not know that because they wanted to attack Iraq and they wanted to use Iran
to take out other regional opponents back then.
So like the Israelis pretending that they're like, oh my God, what happened in 1983?
They're like, oh, you murdered a bunch of American Marines?
Who cares?
Who cares?
Yeah, who cares?
Let's do a deal, man.
Help me destroy one of your Arab neighbors.
You're Persian, you don't care.
Come on, let's destroy the Arabs together, and that's the deal they made.
So it's all crocodile tears.
By the way, anybody could look that up.
The reason you probably never heard of it is because mainstream media hates the idea of giving you real news and giving you information.
They hide all the information that might be incriminating to Israel.
Instead, they just do their propaganda.
So now, back to the elections and the timing now, Anna's right.
So here's how Iran views it.
And again, unfortunately, unfortunately.
Unfortunately, they're correct about this.
They said, if we wait till after the elections, then there's no check for another two years.
And basically the Americans and the Israelis have started talking about nukes.
We have got to do something now.
Otherwise after the elections, they might even nuke us.
Yep.
And there'll be no recourse, nothing to check them, no elections that they have to worry about
for a whole another two years.
The Israeli elections will be over.
There is no question that after the US and Israeli,
election, so within two months, that we will go and try to obliterate Iran at an even greater
scale. Because then they'll be like, oh, gas prices, as long as there's no elections that doesn't
affect your power, it's just the American people suffer. And the South Koreans and the Indians
and the whole world suffers. But who cares? They're not Israeli. They're inferior. So let's just crush
them after the elections. And Iran knows that. So they're trying to speed up the process so that
there's at least a cost before the elections.
Now, what can they do?
So as we explain, they might be able to sink a ship,
and I'm super worried about it, have been from day one.
Number two, the part they're not talking,
nobody's talking about, which is they could hit the oil fields
in the Gulf countries.
And if they hit the oil fields, it's already game set match.
You can't undo that damage.
It takes 10 years to rebuild those.
And so that's why this is not a conventional war.
Both sides have been until we hit the oil tankers,
pretty reserved on hitting oil facilities.
We hit the Iranian oil
facilities once, they hit back so hard, we're like, don't hit their oil facilities again,
because it causes gas prices skyrocket.
So if Iran pushes that button and they destroy oil fields in the Gulf, well, then we're
all screwed.
And it's inevitable because we won't leave.
The Israelis will never, ever allow us to leave.
So since we're never going to leave, Iran at some point will definitely do that.
And if you thought gas prices are bad now, wait to get a load of them after they hit, they hit the oil field.
And then the Saudis and the Israelis and the Americans will hit the Iranian oil fields and will
and the oil might double from this disastrous price.
And then the last thing they have is Yemen.
And I don't know if you saw it, but earlier today, Yemen and Saudi Arabia going back and forth,
back and forth.
And what is Yemen doing?
They're starting to hit their oil fields and they're allies of Iran.
So here we go.
This is developing into an even bigger and more disastrous war.
But there's no brakes in the car.
And there's nothing you can do to make Trump and the American government stop because
it's not the American government.
Well, Jank made reference to the terrible economic situation we're currently experiencing,
especially when it comes to oil prices, gas prices, diesel prices.
So when we come back from the break, I actually do want to touch on that topic.
And then we'll move on to Canadian tariffs on US imports in response to Trump's ridiculous,
nonsensical trade war.
So that and more coming up, don't miss it.
All right, let's go to members on t.t.com.
Durge says we're about to become a confusing country since we're renaming New Mexico to New
America.
But now that we're beefing with England, we need to rename New York and New Jersey to New
America and newer America.
So those are all excellent points.
And of course, remember, England and Canada are our worst enemies.
And our best friend is the one that drags us into every war where you die and spend trillions
of dollars. The best friend is the one that gets you murdered and then waste all of your money.
Our top enemies are the Canadians and the English. Okay, all right, whatever, dude. This is such
obvious propaganda. It's comical. As most prophesies, if they use one of our unmanned subs to
sink one of our aircraft carriers, the U.S. military will never regain its position in the world.
By the way, I think that is a literal point you're making. I mean, if it's as simple as just
capturing one of our own devices and using it against us, we're cooked.
All of our equipment is for waste.
And we knew we knew we were wasting trillions of dollars there.
It's just all pork barrel projects anyway.
SM says, so this is basically World War III punishing other countries not involved will only cause us more harm than good.
Oh yeah, things are going to get way worse with other countries.
On Twitch, Bradshaw, crew of one, thank you for gifting the five subs.
You're awesome as usual.
Semperfire dog says if you're sinking oil tankers, it's going to increase the cost of oil.
Exactly right.
You're better than every reporter in the country.
It's just Vegas says our military is totally competent, by the way.
That's funny.
It meant to be funny.
Aussie Andy says, Anna, you do all colors, love.
Jenk is that violet?
Back on T.I.T.
Jank and Anna with you guys.
And Miss Mint Juleps, thank you for joining.
You're awesome.
They hit the join button below.
So did Yvette Morris.
And Yvette added, I am serious, Casparian for President 2028.
Oh my goodness.
Yeah.
See, unlike I would argue most people who run for president, I'm fully aware of the fact that I'm not qualified for that.
No, I don't believe that at all.
It's not even close to true.
Okay, okay, let's, we got the artwork to do.
Yeah, yeah, look, the people running the country are the most unqualified baboons I've ever seen, right?
So no, you are a billion times more qualified them.
Anyway, Rosa Roscoe, thank you for gift to membership on YouTube.
You're awesome as usual, and I just want to read one quick comment here because it's relevant to what's happening today.
today, Anthony McClendon wrote in on Super Chat.
Cenk, thanks for interviewing Karejima Manzura last week and Paige Boschman earlier.
Both ran great campaigns, exposed their opponents corruption, and built movements that can't
be stopped regardless of what happens today.
But there is elections today in your neck of the woods, please check out where the elections
are including in New Hampshire.
And always vote against the incumbents, vote against the establishment.
The outsiders represent real people, the insiders represent the corrupt donor class.
And that's why mainstream media loves them because they they live and breathe corruption.
So go vote for outsiders today if you can.
We'll give you the results later.
All right, now let's go to our next story.
So the economic impact of the blows back and forth in Iran this weekend is going to be potentially devastating.
We're already seeing some of it, but wait till you see the damage that it could do worldwide.
Anna, tell us the whole story.
Absolutely, now that the kinetic warfare between the United States and Iran has been reignited,
unfortunately shipping through the Strait of Hormuz over this past weekend dropped to the lowest
level since May, and that's according to the tracking data, which you can check for yourselves.
Now the escalation helped push up Brent crude oil and international, an international benchmark
to near $100 per barrel Tuesday morning.
A price last reached in July.
And at some point, we all knew something had to give.
Now, the US had been bragging about how they managed to get more and more vessels through
the Strait of Hormuz without getting attacked.
It never reached the levels that it needed to reach, you know, so we can get back to normalcy,
clearly.
But now the situation is far worse since the kinetic warfare has been reignited.
So Labor Day weekend, for instance, we saw a record.
Okay, so the price of a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline has never been above $4 on Labor
Day, according to AAA.
On Monday though, Labor Day, the national average price at the pump was $4.15, a record
high for the holiday.
And the impact on the cost of diesel is certainly far more pronounced.
For instance, the price of diesel meanwhile also hit a record heading into the long holiday weekend.
It costs $5.90 per gallon on Monday compared with $3.71 a year ago.
And again, this is according to AAA.
So the situation is so dire and so humiliating for the Trump administration that our own
energy secretary, Chris Wright, doesn't want to answer any questions about it.
Take a look.
It is Labor Day weekend, one of the heaviest travel times of the year.
The average cost of a gallon of gas this weekend is the highest on record, $4.13.
You said on this show five months ago that high gas prices had peaked, but between not just the Iran War, but the Russia-Ukraine war and the U.S.'s own dwindling reserves, isn't it possible gas prices could go up even more?
Well, if you look at, I don't want to have an opinion on that, but if you look at the futures market right now, what can you buy gasoline for two months in advance from where we are today?
It's down more than 30 cents a gallon from where it is today.
So we are hitting the end of the summer driving season.
The Trump administration has changed blending requirements for American refiners,
which allows them to produce more gasoline, just as demand for gasoline is about to start heading down.
I should point out that New York, Connecticut, California, and several other Democrat-governed states
have decided not to adopt those standards.
They apparently want to keep driving up prices on their residents.
But that Trump administration is doing everything we can to drive energy prices down as we have since the day we arrived in office.
Respectfully, as the energy secretary, shouldn't you have an opinion on where gas prices are and where they're going?
I want to tell you about a new podcast series I'm enjoying from future hindsight, Occupy an unfinished uprising.
Occupy Wall Street is the story of the improbable becoming possible.
In 2008, millions of people were devastated by an economic crash caused by Wall Street greed.
But it wasn't until 2011 that there was a mass response from the left.
A call to protests went out and thousands of people responded.
I know I was there.
They raged against a system that was rigged against them and tried to create their own anti-capitalist
village in a small Manhattan park.
The movement quickly spread across the country inspiring hundreds of occupations and a new generation
of activists.
Occupy an unfinished uprising is told that.
through the voices of activists who camped out in Zaccati Park for almost two months,
getting inside the drama of a movement that grew rapidly,
felt both transcendent and chaotic and then violently flamed out.
Occupy changed the national conversation about capitalism,
popularized the language of the 99% and inspired a generation of activists.
As we approach Occupy's 15th anniversary this September,
this series offers a reminder that collective action can reshape what seems possible.
To listen, search for future hindsight,
wherever you get your podcasts.
He should have an opinion, but when the administration is failing, as hard as they're failing
right now, and when you look at the price of gas at the pump, he would rather not have an
opinion. But with that in mind, let's actually debunk some of what he had to say there.
He pointed to futures, like, oh, look at the futures. Everything is so great, except it's not.
But for instance, West Texas intermediate crude oil futures, a benchmark for U.S. oil prices,
we're trading at roughly $92 per barrel as of 9.30 a.m. Eastern time on Monday, and that's
compared with about $67 before the Iran war started on February 28th.
Similarly, Brent crude oil futures, an international benchmark, we're trading at about $97
per barrel on Monday, up from roughly $7.
$72 pre-war.
And right now, again, the Trump administration is bragging about how they managed to get
some oil out through the Strait of Hormuz, despite the Iranian blockade.
But it's clearly not enough.
So according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, an estimated 4.9 million barrels of crude
oil and petroleum liquids were transported daily through the strait in the second quarter of
the year, a sharp drop from the average of 21.6 million barrels per day.
in the last quarter of 2025, obviously before the war started.
And then, Jake, you kind of put this reality up against all the other conflicts and issues
that we're seeing internationally.
I know people hate when I mention this, but it's just the truth and you just have to deal
with it.
Ukraine striking Russian refineries and oil infrastructure is also contributing to the cost
of oil going up, what you're experiencing at the gas pump.
And also the fact that the Saudis have re-engaged in warfare,
with the Houthis in Yemen.
And so oil facilities were on fire after the Houthis launched a major missile and drone attack,
targeting energy sites across southwestern Saudi Arabia today.
Yeah, so that's exactly what we told you about and warned you about earlier in the show.
And so first of all, there's a real number, and it's not what either side is saying as to the traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.
And it is about a quarter of what it was before the war in the last quarter, the last three months.
So when the Iranians say there's nothing going through the Strait of Hormuz, that's not true about a quarter of the ships are going through.
When the U.S. says it's completely open and 100% of the ships are going through, that's comically false.
But that's coming out of the mouth of Donald Trump and everybody knows that our president is a maniacal and pathological liar, which is deeply embarrassing, by the way.
We should try not to elect morons and pathological liars because then people go, I guess that's America.
Like, oh, God, I hate how he's embarrassed us throughout the world, little on the actual damage.
So now that we turn to the actual damage.
As we explained earlier, the Iranians just tested two ballistic missiles against our ships.
I would be very surprised if they couldn't sink one of our ships because they have, because as our own generals say,
Instead of you just firing two, they could fire 20 or 40, and then how are you going to stop all of those?
And you probably can't.
I've been worried from day one that they're going to swing an aircraft carrier.
And if they do that, then we're in catastrophic situation.
So that's potential problem number one.
On top of what we're already experiencing.
So we're already at record high oil prices in Labor Day, and these are all going to add on top of it.
And what I'm worried about is not by a little bit, and it's not going to be incremental anymore.
It's going to be giant leaps and bounce.
So second issue is the market's finally waking up and realizing, oh, only a quarter of the oil is making it through those straight of Hormuz.
Golly, gee, I guess that affects supply and demand.
D'er.
And so today the markets went down over 600 points.
They went down, I think, about 400 at the end of last week.
So, and why is that?
Because the morons on Wall Street finally realized, right, if there's less oil, the price of oil will be higher.
and that'll affect all the rest of the economy.
So, I mean, it's incredible how long they believe Trump's lies.
It was incredible.
But now that spell and that illusion looks like it's broken.
So that's problem number two.
Problem number three is, as we explained before,
and breaking news there from Yemen is potentially a huge problem.
If Iran's proxies are starting to hit Gulf oil and gas fields,
including in Saudi Arabia like the Houthis are,
That's also going to not affect the price of oil a little bit.
You cannot rebuild those for another 10 years or so.
I mean, if you're super lucky and good and you pour all of your resources and maybe five years.
But that means we have limited the supply of oil not for the next couple of days or weeks,
but for the next couple of years.
Yes.
So that'll have devastating consequences on gas prices and the rest of the economy.
And we're basically burning the world here for no reason to do.
Iran never had a nuclear weapon, never was developing a nuclear weapon.
In fact, they had their most holy edict in Shia Islam, saying that we are to never develop
a nuclear weapon.
But we murdered the guy who gave that edict.
Now his son says, all right, well, maybe we will, and maybe we blocked the strait in Hormuz,
and they did, and maybe we hit all your oil fields, and they might do that next.
So if you think things are bad now, I hate to tell you this, and I'm sorry about being the
bearer of bad news, but it is going to get true.
dramatically worse soon.
And to make matters worse, Trump has decided to start a new trade war with one of our most
important trade partners, Canada, which I'll give you the details about later in the show.
But one final thing that I'll mention, there's been some new reporting in regard to the current
state of the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve, which we have been tapping into to attempt
to mitigate a devastating spike in gas prices at the pump.
And here's what we know so far.
And to be honest with you, this is devastating in any context, but for me it was like a
little bit of a relief because I thought we were like about done with what we have left
in our strategic petroleum reserve.
But here's what we do know, the US has now withdrawn 129.9 million barrels since March,
meaning the beginning of the war, and that reduces the emergency stockpile by roughly 31% in
just six months.
Now that's bad news, but it's not as bad as I thought it was initially.
So I'm just like, huh, no.
Shockingly, not as devastating as I expected, but it is still devastating.
31% of our strategic petroleum reserve gone in six months.
No, yeah, it's worse than you think because I know it was around 25% before.
Now it's gotten up to 31%.
But that's what's artificially keeping the price of oil low or low error in this
interregnum, in this, you know, purgatory that we're living in right now.
But once we dip below a certain percentage, we've got to keep it.
it in reserve.
We don't have a choice.
I mean, because if we run out of the whole thing, it's going to affect the market even
more because they're going to think, oh, there's no reserves left at all, and that's
going to create a panic.
I think getting below 50% is kind of unthinkable, and now we're flirting with that.
Israel is literally draining everything we have out of this country, our oil, our military, our
defenses, our money, our troops.
But why do you hate Jews, Jank?
Yeah, and meanwhile, as you're saying, hey, why?
Why are we doing this all for this one tiny country?
I mean, why don't we spend all of our blood and treasure from Nicaragua or Mongolia or
something?
Or us.
Or I know, it's crazy, but how about us, right?
And all of our media goes, Jew haters, you should never listen to them, you should destroy
America on behalf of Israel if you're not an anti-Semite.
But if you see supply and demand and understand it, you're a normal functioning human being,
that is logical and rational and understands world events, then you're an anti-Semite,
because you won't bow down to Israel's insane demands.
But it doesn't really matter because we're not in charge.
The government is and the government is totally captured by Israel.
So you'll see, even though these devastating effects are definitely coming down the pike,
we will not budge an inch, we will go further into the war because we have been ordered
into that disastrous war by our masters, by the Israeli government.
And so you will see the consequences that we're laying out.
for you and you'll get to see with your own eyes.
Because the Israelis, that's all of mainstream media and almost all of Congress, tell you,
oh, no, everything's going to be great and we've got this thing figured out.
And you're all anti-Semites for not loving this war, and this has nothing to do with Israel and blah,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And don't worry about the price of oil.
The government keeps saying over and over again.
I mean, we just showed you the energy secretary.
We could show you every secretary.
Oh, it's no problem.
We're America.
We're great.
And so when you see the catastrophic prices and you see the, you see the energy, you're
the economy meltdown on an even grander scale, understand who was right and who was wrong,
who lied to you and who told you the truth.
And we're telling you right now that that is going to happen, and it is definitely Israel's
fault.
We have no interest in this war at all.
If our government was not occupied by the Israelis, we wouldn't be anywhere near Iran
and we wouldn't have any of these problems.
All right, I'm gonna be naughty and skip the next break, because I want to get to this
Canada story, so let's get right to it.
So we are dealing with inflation, obviously.
We should have a leader who wants to do something about that inflation, but he's doing the opposite.
He's making it worse.
Let's get to the details.
Canada has now officially imposed retaliatory tariffs on nearly 30 billion Canadian dollars
worth of US imports, meaning US goods being exported into Canada.
So the Canadian taxes on US imports took effect today.
And that comes on the heels of President Trump's decision to spark a new trade war with our
most important trading partner, our northern neighbor, Canada.
I have more details, but before I get to those details, Jank, I just, what is he doing and why is he doing it?
Yeah, so this one is uniquely Trump. So this is less the donor class, although the donor
class does benefit from it, we'll explain why in a little bit. But Canada struck back to
And so back in the, Trump heard decades ago that in the late 1800s, when we had tariffs,
we didn't have an income tax.
And tariffs were enough to pay for everything back then.
He got it into a super dumb head that if we go to just a tariff system, we won't have
to pay income tax because he doesn't want to pay income tax.
That's why we've done all this maniacal tariff stuff, because the moron cannot be spoken
to like an adult.
And so you keep telling him, the 1890s are not the same thing as today.
The economy is so much larger, there's no chance you could finance all that with tariffs.
And he's like, no, you mean larger tariffs?
Let's hit our top enemy, Canada.
What is this?
So Canada struck back.
Yes, so let me give you the details because it is relevant.
And much like Iran, now working.
to drag out a war that's deeply unpopular and will hurt Trump politically, it appears that Canada
specifically targeting U.S. imports that would impact Trump's voting base, which would hurt
Trump politically in the lead up to the midterms. And look, I mean, you might be upset at that
if you were a Trump supporter, but at the end of the day, strategically speaking, this is pretty
brilliant. And so maybe we don't support a president who is actively working against our best
interests. So let me give you the details. Canada imposed tariffs on 27.6 billion Canadian dollars
worth of U.S. goods. And that includes dairy, agricultural equipment, paper, household appliances,
and electronics, which by the way is going to impact the manufacturers here in the United
States who are exporting those products to Canada. Canadians would have to pay a higher tax
on those imports. But at the end of the day, this is basically being done.
to harm, you know, U.S. companies in order to retaliate against Trump's insanely stupid trade war.
So the tariffs on those imports will range from a 15% to 50% tax.
So US steel aluminum and iron products, furniture and clothing were hit with the highest rate of 50%.
Ottawa called the move a dollar for dollar response to the US slapping new 50% tariffs on about
$20 billion worth of Canadian wine, hockey sticks, and other key goods on August 22nd.
So these again, Canadian counter tariffs, there were Canadian counter tariffs in place previously
due to previous rounds of Trump's trade war with Canada. And so those tariffs will remain in place.
They will be unchanged. And so that includes 25% on the politically sensitive auto sector. Those will remain in place.
And instead of taking a step back to kind of recalibrate whether or not engaging in a new round of trade war with Canada makes much sense,
Trump has done, well, what you can expect him to do. He has decided to double down.
And now he is threatening additional tariffs on Canadian goods.
So for instance, he issued a threat in a typical rambling truth social post saying no more selling bombardier in the United States.
So that is a Canadian airline manufacturer or airplane manufacturer, I should say.
He says if they want our market, they must build here and stop treating America like a piggy bank.
Now the only problem is the company that he's now threatening to target actually employs American workers in several states throughout this country.
So they issued a statement reminding Trump of that.
And then in a statement to CNBC, the company said that they value its great partnership with
American companies and its U.S. employees.
And so that led to both Republican senators in the state of Kansas pushing back on Trump.
Let's start with Dr. Roger Marshall.
Okay, so this is obviously Senator Roger Marshall, a Republican.
He says, I'm going to fight to keep bombardiers over 1,200 Kansas jobs.
I've already taken that concern inside the Oval Office.
We agree on the mission, bring more good paying manufacturing jobs back to Wichita.
You get the point.
Then you have Senator Jerry Moran, another Republican senator from the state of Kansas.
He said in a statement that the company's Wichita operation supports a local workforce of more than a thousand employees who contribute their talent and expertise to our nation's defense and aerospace capabilities.
By the way, aside from employing Americans in America, the company also relies on U.S.
manufactured parts for their airplanes.
So it's gonna harm our economy if Trump actually moves forward with these tariffs.
So the part that bothers me about that is, as usual, Donald Trump doesn't do any homework.
So he, so the tariffs are one thing, but they attack on bombardier.
Wouldn't you check with anyone?
I mean, you're the president of the United States.
if you want, hundreds of staffers at your disposal.
Before you send out the post, why don't you have one of your lackeys, look up, hey,
do they have any plants in America?
Are any in red states?
Is it going to hurt any of my Republican candidates in the midterms if I threatened to destroy
these jobs in the middle of Kansas?
So instead, he doesn't do it.
You're stupid.
We're going to kill them.
We hate you, Canada.
We got you.
We're bigger than you.
You're a little kid and we're the big boss.
Ha ha!
We smash you.
And then all the Republican senators come on and go, what are you doing?
Yeah.
Like this is gonna, this is hurting me a lot.
There's 1,200 jobs in my state with this.
Can you please redo this?
Nobody knew there was jobs from that company in this country.
Yeah, you didn't know, because you didn't ask.
Why are we making enemies with Canada?
Why are we doing this?
It's just so utterly stupid.
Look, this is just my theory, I could be totally wrong, but it is an educated guess.
So I didn't realize until this past weekend that the United States invited Russia to the G20
meeting.
And I do think that part of the talks that are taking place between the US and Russia is,
yeah, it's about finally getting a peace deal with Ukraine.
I don't know how successful that's gonna be, but putting that aside.

I think that there's a lot of trouble economically for the United States and the U.S.
is trying to find a way to bring Russia back into the economic fold in like a sneaky way.
Yeah.
So like we're doing that while simultaneously making enemies with Canada?
I just don't get it.
I don't get any of it.
Yeah, well, that's because it doesn't make sense.
That's why you don't get it.
There's nothing to get.
So look, I mean, look, first just big picture, think about it.
Trump and the entire government is saying, basically, Canada's our enemy and Israel's are
special ally. Now, Israel costs us $8 trillion in their wars that we fought. They've taken
320 billion from us. They keep making us pay for a genocide. The whole world is hating us
because of Israel. And that's our best friend. And Canada is our biggest enemy? No, you're not
going to get anybody to believe that. I mean, maybe the bottom of the barrel if it exists in MAGA
might be like, yeah, yeah, the Canadians are the real problem.
If we just start eight more wars for Israel, then all these problems will be solved.
And if we attack Canada and Mexico and Greenland and Denmark and England and every ally we have and destroy them on behalf of Israel or whatever.
Like, okay, but most rational people don't think that.
And by the way, I don't want you to mistake what I'm saying.
This Canada thing has nothing to do with Israel.
I'm just contrasting.
Like, one has done great damage to us and we keep calling them our best friend.
The other one is actually our best friend, has done no damage to us, has done nothing wrong against us, and we're wildly attacking in them.
And especially the propaganda bothers me, because we're not allowed to touch any special allies.
Moscow had said that he would not hold our allies accountable for human rights abuses now that he's in charge of the Middle East Committee.
So you could do crimes against humanity, and if you're a special ally, that's okay.
But if you're Canada our best friend, you can't even be neutral.
You have to like somehow fulfill Donald Trump's fantasies.
It's crazy, it's absolutely insane.
And guys, just to give you an idea last year in 2025, the US exported 33.6 billion dollars
worth of goods to Canada and imported 381.9 billion dollars worth of goods from Canada.
Canada is not an enemy.
In fact, it's one, again, our most important trade partner.
And we are now making an enemy out of an ally for no reason at all after Trump on multiple
occasions already renegotiated tariffs with Canada.
So like imagine how annoying that is to negotiate again and again, come to an agreement, and
then Trump out of nowhere decides you, nah, not good enough.
The USMCA not good enough.
We're gonna bring you back to the negotiating table for no reason at all just because,
honestly, we're speculating, but you think it's because he wants income tax, he wants
to replace the income tax with tariffs, which he has said that before on the record.
The other thing is, I genuinely believe that he is using tariffs to carve out special
little deals for himself when it comes to companies that he's heavily invested in.
Because he tries to get like these little carve outs for very specific US corporations
as it pertains to tariffs.
So is any of that going on right now?
I don't know.
But if you just look at this on a surface level, none of it makes sense.
Yeah, last couple things on that.
Don't forget guys, after the tariffs are overruled, and they were recently, what the Trump
administration has done is instead of giving back the tariffs to the people who paid it,
which is you guys, American consumers, we all paid it, right?
He's giving it to the companies instead, and the companies are keeping 100% of it.
So this has become some sort of loophole to allow Trump to funnel back hundreds of billions
of dollars to his corporate donors on top of the tariffs that are punishing.
our economy. So there's a scam around every corner. Yep. Like there's everything he does is
fraudulent and for a completely different reason and all for himself. And then I was on a different
show earlier today and I got into a debate with a woman who supports Trump on this stuff.
And she was saying, yeah, no, no, no, we should punish Canada. Oh, okay. And and but don't worry
it's not going to have any negative consequences because we're bigger than them. Well, we're bigger than
them, but and yes, we might be able to hurt others more.
But I want to tell the dumpster fire end of MAGA, just hurting other people is not a good
in and of itself.
Like they seem to think it's like something that's moral.
We can hurt the Canadians.
To what end?
Why are we hurting them?
And can they hurt us back?
Yes, especially on aluminum.
And right now Canada has not done all the tariffs yet.
They are acting like Iran proportional.
And at some point, they're gonna say, all right, forget it.
If they're doing, America's doing all tariffs, we're gonna do tariffs on everything.
And then I guarantee you, Trump comes back and cries like a little baby and he stuffs
the taco down his throat and goes, oh no, but we're gonna need aluminum, we need a deal on that.
Oh no one knew that we need to do the Canadian aluminum.
No, only morons like you don't know, okay?
And so at that point, what if Canada goes, no?
No, I don't care that you want to unwind it.
I don't want to do the deal with you on aluminum.
You're either going to take away all the tariffs, or I'm not going to give you the aluminum,
the steel, the cars, I'm not going to give you any of it.
And so, okay, you hurt me more, congratulations, but we're not backing down.
And so the lady today, I was debating today, she just kept belittling the Canadians like,
we'll show them.
Why?
Why are we showing the Canadians how much we can hurt them?
What a maniacal administration this is.
Yeah, by leading into the bully culture, what we do is we end up hurting ourselves.
And I don't think she realizes that yet, but she'll find out soon enough.
Yeah, she thinks that after they experienced enough pain, that they'll give us everything
we want.
Okay, look guys, I mean, I interact with Canadians all the time, partly because we're an international
show, partly because I go to Canada, the Canadians are not going to back down.
They've been boycotting us.
Yeah, you're not, you don't, they don't get it.
They're so arrogant, it's unbearable.
No, the Canadians would rather go bankrupt than back down to Trump.
So good luck with that stupid strategy.
Any second now, the Canadians and the Iranians are both gonna give up and say, oh, daddy
Trump, you're our Lord and Savior, we bow to you, they're never gonna do that.
What they're actually doing is they are creating new trade alliances and that can't be
be undone. Let's say Trump does back out. Let's say there is a taco moment when it comes
to these tariffs. Well, new trade alliances have been formed and our farmers, our manufacturers
end up getting harmed. So again, the bully tactics are stupid. And I think that we should use
retaliatory measures against countries that are trying to hurt us, not countries that have
dutifully worked alongside us, whether it's trade or other, you know, other ventures. So that's
where we're at right now. We do have to take a quick break. When we come back for the
second hour though, you do not want to miss it. I think it's going to be one of our best hours
because we're going to talk about this giant expose from Haretz in regard to what the Israeli
government knew in the lead up to October 7th. And then later in the show, we will talk about
the use of weaponized race in order to try to hurt people on the left, candidates on the left.
that what happened over the weekend is enraging and I can't wait to share that story with you.
So come right back.
We'll be back in a few minutes.
They knew and they let it happen.
Hey, Andrew, what's up?
Hey, Jank, you ready to make the switch?
Yeah, I guess.
I promise it's easy.
Universal, basic, and you get income.
Yeah, you keep saying that.
But you sure I'm going to have coverage?
Of course you will.
You think I would have bad service?
I'm Andrew Yang.
Of course I have good service.
All right, let's try.
But I'm so bad at tech.
So, wait.
Should I do this thing of the hashtag business?
Andrew, you're still on, right?
Yep.
Oh, I see it.
Oh, yeah, I do see it.
Here we go.
I actually did not realize that you'd be searching in real time, but I love it.
How much do people actually normally say?
Yeah, the average American is going to save between $500 and $1,000 a year on doable.
Yeah, no.
You know what I'm going to do, Andrew?
Are you ready to become a noble member?
The two buttons are do it and go back.
There's no going back.
We're doing it.
We're doing it.
Here we go, Noble Mobile.
Oh my gosh, I just called you and are you now on Noble and not Verizon?
Why didn't you tell me it was going to be super easy?
I know, man.
Now you just stay away from your phone and watch the money roll in.
I can do that.
You go phone, yeah.
Jank, you still there?
Andrew?
Oh, well, at least I got Noble Moble.
It was really just one tape.
The whole thing is wild.
It's in my shoes.
It's in my shoes.

Are back on the Young Turks, Jane and Anna with you guys. And Melody loves music. Thank you for
gift and five subs on YouTube. We love you for it. Hit the join button below if you can or t-y-t.com
slash join. We need as many of you as possible to keep the show going in very tough times.
Okay, but let's keep going. Let's do the story.
So I've been Israel many times. The whole country is a fortress. When I first heard this story,
I still have the same gut instinct that I did initially. I find this very hard to believe.
I've been to that Gaza border. You cannot go 10 feet without running into a 19-year-old
with an AR-15 or an automatic machine gun that is an IDF soldier. Right?
The whole country is surveilled.
Was there a stand down order?
Was there a stand down order?
Now that was a couple of days after October 7th.
Wait to see other things that Charlie Kirk said on that day.
But you're not allowed to ask those questions.
Well, Charlie's not around to ask those questions anymore.
And now there's even more evidence, overwhelming evidence, that Benjamin Netanyahu definitely
knew about October 7th.
chose not to do anything.
And it comes not from us, but from the Israeli press.
Anna, tell us all about it.
Well, the notion of foreknowledge might sound incredibly offensive to you, but the facts
are the facts, and we should dig into this story because this massive expose by
Haretz does quote several Israeli officials, including individuals within the Israeli military,
and just to answer the question posed by Charlie Kirk in that video, was there a stand-down
order?
Well, I choose to believe the IDF soldiers who have testified on camera that they had a stand
down order, which is why it took hours, as long as six hours for the IDF to respond on
October 7th.
Now with that in mind, let's get to this expose by Heretz, because we are learning some
damning details from this publication.
So in late September of 2023, so weeks before October 7th took place, Netanyahu actually received
a dire warning about Hamas from the president of the United Arab Emirates, Sheikh Mohammed bin
Zayed, or MBZ. So according to three anonymous foreign senior sources, bin Zayed called Netanyahu
to warn him that Hamas leader, who is now dead, okay, Israel killed him, Yahya Sinwar,
was planning a massive attack on Israel. So an advisor to bin Zayed, who overheard who overheard
this conversation, this call between Netanyahu and MBZ stated the following. The Emir
explained that in his assessment, Sinwar was preparing for a major event. He told Netanyahu
that Israel should be ready. Concurrently, he recommended trying to find an economic solution
for the strip and claiming the West Bank to prevent, or calming, I should say, and calming the
West Bank to prevent escalation. So here's where things start to get real weird. Okay, so bin Zayed
urged Netanyahu to take the situation seriously. And to his surprise, the prime minister
reacted with relative calm. Now here's the real question before I get to more details from
this report. Did he react with relative calm because he knew this attack was coming and that he could
exploit it for his own purposes, namely everything we've seen transpire in the Middle East ever
since. The annihilation of the Palestinian people in Gaza, flattening Gaza, the ethnic cleansing
that continues to take place in the West Bank, the destruction of dozens of villages in southern Lebanon.
This is the Greater Israel Project in motion. This is what we've been warning you guys all about.
And what do Israelis say anytime you point that out?
What about October 7th?
What about October 7th?
Just keep in mind that what they are doing when they say that is they are exploiting the dead bodies of the victims of October 7th in order to call for more annihilation, more war, more slaughter, more genocide, more ethnic cleansing.
So let's get to more details here.
So in response, Netanyahu allegedly claimed that Hamas was actually planning an assault
on the West Bank, okay, and that, you know, or the assault was going to come from the West Bank,
not from Gaza.
They weren't worried about Gaza, according to it.
Can I just say real quick, Anna, on that.
I actually am worried that he purposely said the West Bank to distract the troops away from
the Gaza border.
I believe it 100%.
Because, I personally believe that.
Because as you'll see here, there's actually three different people.
that told Netanyahu, no, they're gonna attack from Gaza and it's Hamas, it's not the West Bank.
Yep. And he's like, yeah, yeah, let's send all of our resources to the West Bank instead.
Yep, and that's what he did, by the way. Bin Zayed urged Netanyahu to take the situation seriously.
To his surprise, however, the prime minister reacted with relative calm. Can you imagine that?
Like, the Israelis are the most neurotic, paranoid people literally on the planet.
So you get this warning, and this wasn't the only warning.
I'm gonna get to the other intel that we've already talked about on the show in previous episodes.
And he ignored all of it, really?
That's strange.
Okay, let's get to more of this.
So, and this wasn't the only warning.
So the Israelis received other warnings previously.
So a similar call reached the Prime Minister's Bureau in those days from the Egyptian
intelligence chief, General Abbas Kamel, who warned Netanyahu of something unusual, a terrifying
operation about to be launched by Hamas.
Now remember, Hamas doesn't exist in the West Bank, they're in Gaza.
So why would they specify Hamas?
And Netanyahu's response to it is like, no, no, I'm worried about the West Bank.
Okay, journalist Samadar Perry recounts that Netanyahu also told Kamel, in Gaza, we are in the picture, we are in control.
Our problem is with the West Bank.
And that's where we are also diverting forces.
And there it is.
Yes, okay. So it's also important to remember that those two warnings that Netanyahu
ignored, that the Israeli government ignored, that the Israeli military ignored, weren't the only
warnings. It's important to remember that, like, less than two months after October 7th happened,
the New York Times of all places published a report, this is on November 30th of 2023.
Israel knew Hamas' attack plan more than a year ago, a blueprint reviewed by the Times,
laid out the attack in detail. Israeli officials dismissed it as aspirational and ignored
specific warnings.
So by the way, that blueprint, Hamas followed like perfectly.
So everything that was in that blueprint that the Israelis obtained a year in advance,
Hamas actually carried out like perfectly on October 7th.
And the Israeli military and intelligence officials had dismissed it as aspirational when
the document had circulated.
They said that experts determined that an attack of that scale and ambition was beyond
Thomas' capabilities.
Yeah.
So again, even if that's true, that's their racism damning them, right?
Oh, these dumb Arabs, they can't figure out.
They wanted it to happen.
That's what I think.
That's my opinion.
But I doubt that's the case.
I actually agree with Anna.
And here, and to be fair,
it's disgusting, by the way.
And so this is interesting, and I don't know if it's true or not.
It depends on who's leaking to Heretz and what their agenda is, etc.
But in the story, they claimed that Shinbet and Mossad were not made.
not made aware of both the UAE and Egyptian warnings by Netanyahu.
Netanyahu kept that to himself.
Now it's not that Shinbet didn't know, so they have this one person who worked with Hamas
to do the negotiations, and he had told the UAE, but he also eventually told Shinbet.
And the leaders of Shinbet at the time now say, well, we would have acted if Netanyahu
who had given us the second warning, right?
And the second warning would have caused us to mobilize.
But since we never got that second warning, we didn't.
So up to you on whether you believe Shinbet and Musad on that, but they're basically throwing
Netanyahu under the bus saying, yeah, we had one warning, but we didn't know all that
Netanyahu knew.
So is it just Netanyahu that did all this?
Or was it them all working together to allow an attack?
Because remember, that story has one giant hole in it about how Mossad, et cetera, didn't know.
Then how could you not know the stand down order that the IDF gave?
Everybody had to know that, right?
And now the IDF soldiers are on tape saying, yeah, we got a stand down order between 530 and
9 o'clock.
The attack was at 6.30 in the morning, right?
And then it takes 6 to 7 hours to show up.
So did no one in Shindedin, and Mossad asked that in Yahoo?
Why did it take you seven hours to get to a place we can get to in 45 minutes?
So I wanna go to a video.
Yeah.
This video is very important.
And I've got other statements from Israeli officials in just a moment.
But before we get to that, let's go to this video which dates back to October 8th of
2023.
This is Benjamin Nanyahu talking about how he envisions war with Iran.
Take a look.
It's not to amin the
Aisagim of October, so
who had am I mean by
October that we'll

it'ser the
and we've
done it in a
for audio listeners,
don't worry,
I've got your back.
I'll read a transcript
of what he said in that video.
Let's go to Graphic 15,
please.
Our achievements are under
Unbelievable.
I mean, who would have believed on October 7th?
That was literally the day before, that we would change the face of the Middle East.
I did.
I said it on October 8th, and my intention was that in the end we would clash with Iran, the
head of the octopus, and we would cut off the arms, hit and wound the access of evil, and
we did it very powerfully.
If the Palestinian authorities' security mechanisms and related bodies initiate,
or we know with certainty that they are about to initiate a terror attack in the style of October
7th against Israeli forces and Jewish settlements. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and I have
instructed the military to prepare for the opening of a full-scale war. So the second graphic
I read is actually a statement from Israel Cats. And basically what he's doing there is
previewing more destruction that Israel is going to carry out with this false notion that they
They had to do it because of the threat posed by the Palestinians.
But going back to Netanyahu's statement, Jenk, when you know how he was alerted about Hamas'
plans, when you know that he intentionally ignored it, dismissed it, and then after the fact,
he literally references October 7th in order to preview war with Iran and the remaking of the
Middle East, what does that lead one to believe?
Yeah, on Netanyahu, it's not unclear.
And he has said in the past about how, oh, America, one day, and this he said this many years
ago, one day you'll get hit and you'll know what we have to deal with, and then you will
do the things that we want you to do, right?
So it's not like he hasn't taken advantage of catastrophes before to drive people into further
and further wars.
Like 9-11?
And it's not like he doesn't know.
that that's the phenomenon that happens, people get really mad.
And once they get really mad, they want more and more war.
Like 9-11?
And it's not like, I don't know about that, but I do know this, I know what happened on October 7th.
I mean, he himself said that 9-11 was good for the Israelis.
He said that, he said that.
So you can look it up.
And so he thinks these kind of catastrophes, and he's on the record of saying are good for Israel, right?
Now you say, but even if it happens to Israel, look, they have.
have the doctrine that says, and we showed you on tape them talking about it on October 7th,
shoot the hostages, their own hostages.
Okay, so they don't care about their own civilians.
In fact, later in the story, same Heret stories, again, from the Israeli press, they talk
about how Hamas offered up to civilian hostages right away.
Yes, can I read you those graphics?
Yes.
We're gonna get to that in a second.
And Nanjahou didn't want them.
That is very, very curious, right?
So but the Israel cat's part is super important guys, because that now, he said that today,
now they're previewing what they're gonna do to the West Bank and they're setting up the
same kind of excuse.
We could get an October 7th like event from the West Bank or we could pretend, I mean, anticipate
an October 7th like event that requires us to murder every one.
one in the West Bank and take that land too.
And if you're saying, Jane, come on, is it really because of the land?
Yes.
Well, they took 70% of Gaza and Netanyahu was super excited on October 8th.
We're gonna cut off the arms, meaning Hamas, Hezbollah, et cetera, from Iran.
And we're gonna use it to our advantage, and they did.
So we're not saying it, he said it.
And so are they gonna do that again to the West Bank, given what they're saying now?
Almost definitely.
And by the way, of course, as always, are you?
Our politicians go, oh my God, can we please pay for it?
We'd love it if we could pay for another slaughterhouse.
And our media will say, if you're not anti-Semitic, you will help them slaughter the Palestinians.
Because there was kind of maybe an attack from the West Bank, right?
And maybe by the way, Anna, they might be setting this up for, we should have acted in advance
for October 7th.
So now we're gonna act in advance in the West Bank and slaughter them before they even do anything.
I mean, that's what they do already.
But going back to what you had referenced earlier, Jank, about the hostages.
Because remember, every time we called for a ceasefire, what you would hear from the Zionist agents here in the United States is they got to return the hostages.
Well, Hamas did actually offer to return the hostages.
And again and again and again, by the way, not once, not twice, but several times.
Now, what's really interesting is one anonymous senior source from the Israel.
government spoke to Heretz and said the following.
Actually, this is an Israeli defense official, said the following.
Graphic 10.
To be honest, the issue of the hostages was not seriously on the agenda at this stage,
and no one at the military or political level was open to discussing the proposal.
So, you know, the proposal to essentially have a ceasefire in order to return the hostages.
The release of the hostages did not even enter the list of war objectives,
formulated by the government on the night of October 7th.
Could the proposal have been properly discussed and a decision reached?
In substantive terms, the answer is yes.
But the prevailing mood was like after Pearl Harbor,
we had just suffered a brutal blow.
We were in the midst of a war or of war,
who had the bandwidth to talk about stopping the fighting
and starting negotiations now,
even if it was to save the line,
of dozens of people whose final number was still unknown.
Then you have a colonel, Colonel Doron Hater,
who stated, given the situation with the other side also stunned,
with Hamas alarmed by the international public relations
damage created by the images of hundreds of hostages,
elderly, frightened women and crying children,
we could create an agreement framework within reach,
if we wished, it wouldn't be difficult to
It wouldn't be difficult to later argue that Hamas violated it and launched an attack.
So he even pressed Netanyahu's foreign policy advisor to make a deal, but was told the following.
There will be no deal here.
This is ISIS referring to the Palestinians.
They are murderers.
They will get nothing.
Change your mindset, Doron.
So that one's super interesting because that Doron Hater, the IDF Colonel, said on several
occasions, and he's on the record as saying it, look, I don't understand why we wouldn't
we wouldn't do this deal.
It's so simple, we get all of our civilian hostages back, and then we violate the deal the
next day.
He's like, he's not hiding it.
He's like, we do it all the time, and then, you know what we do?
We'd murder Yaya Sinwar afterwards and say it was his fault and just come up with an excuse
for violating the deal, right?
And besides which, in that case, Hamas wasn't offering a deal.
They were just offering the civilians back because they thought it was bad PR, right?
They didn't ask for anything in return.
I'm not saying that, heretz, Israeli press is saying that, Israeli officials are saying that.
And so, and Netanyahu said, I don't want him.
His whole government, I don't want him, even if it's free.
They're scumbags.
You know why?
Because they don't care about anything other than the project of Zionism.
Because they wanted to exploit those hostages.
They wanted to exploit Israeli hostages, okay, to annihilate Palestinians and Muslims and Christians
in the region in order to pursue the Greater Israel Project.
That's what they did.
They desecrated those hostages.
That's what the Israeli government did under the leadership of Benjamin Netanyahu, and they
have the audacity to pretend as though they're the good guys, when in reality they're genociders,
and they don't even care about their own people.
With the Hannibal directive being deployed on October 7th, the Israeli military killed Israelis.
Okay, that's what they did. They shot at and killed Israeli citizens.
So look, we try to look at this as objectively as we can. And again, this is not our information,
it's Heretz's information. And it's not like Hamas was doing it out of the goodness of their heart.
They took the hostages in the first place, and they offered up all, not any of the IDF soldiers
and only civilians that were under the age of 18 or over the age of 50. But given how specific,
that offer was, and given how many Israeli colonels and officials are confirming it,
so that it's now totally inarguable that Netanyahu purposely did not want the hostages
back.
And so Anna gave you the specific reason, they wanted it as an excuse, oh my God, Hamas
won't give the hostages back.
We have to murder 23,000 Palestinian kids.
We don't have a choice, they're hiding the hostages behind the kids.
That's why we kill the kids, but then if they're hiding it behind the kids, then you kill
the hostages too.
None of it ever made any sense, right?
It was always an excuse.
But what I was getting at is, so it's hard for us to understand since we're not in a radical
cult, but radical cults value the mission of the cult so much more than even their own
cult members.
The cult members are expendable.
They could drink the Kool-Aid and all die, it's okay.
I mean, we see that here with the people who continue to support Trump regardless
of the fact that he's reneged on all his promises, and is harming them economically.
I will give you a hundred examples of cults, right?
But in this case, to them, first of all, they hide behind Jewish civilians nonstop.
They say, oh, we're gonna do a genocide, but it's not our fault, it's Jews' fault.
Well, no, Jews across the world didn't vote on it.
Jewish Americans didn't vote on it.
Now, Jewish Americans are opposed to it right now, right?
But they hide, no, no, no, they say, it's not Israel, it's not the Israeli government.
It's the Jews!
They sound like neo-Nazis, it's super weird, okay?
Then number two now, even their own Israeli citizens, they're like, yeah, but if it allows us to take more land for greater Israel, then Zionism grows.
And Zionism is more important than any of individuals within our country.
So that's why, like, it might sound shocking.
They're willing to let Israelis die for the expansion of Israel.
But if you're a fascist, do you think Hitler minded the other Germans dying?
the German soldiers dying, the German cities getting bombed.
He didn't care, he didn't care at all, right?
Because fascists don't think rationally like that.
They just think, expansion, expansion, more military conquest.
And that's exactly how Netanyahu is.
So he's like, oh, our hostages are going to get murdered?
On October 7th, they're gonna murder all of these Israelis.
By the way, do you know that the concert that they had there, where they took so many hostages
and killed so many people, they had asked for permission to continue,
extend the concert and even though the Israeli government knew that there might be an attack
near the border, they said, yeah, keep going with the concert.
I just, please get to know the evil people who lead the Israeli government.
Get to know them and stop giving them the benefit of the doubt because they don't deserve
it, especially at this date.
We gotta take a break when we come back, more news including an unbelievable orchestrated
attack against a Nigerian, Palestinian journalist for speech.
Speaking out against Hakeem Jeffries, a corrupt genocide supporter.
We'll be right back.
They knew and they let it happen.
All right guys, we're also on X now.
Brian says love Jen and Anna, Brandon says, big respect, Jenk.
Farooq Shah says, real journalism.
I appreciate all you guys.
By the way, if you're watching us on X, like the stream, share the stream, makes a big
difference.
We appreciate you guys.
Now we go to super chat, Michael Cotevelli says, Israeli Hasbara are having a
protests outside DSA headquarters in New York City right now, protesting what they called a red-green
alliance and Mamdani wanting to appear at 9-11, 25th anniversary ceremonies, red-green meaning socialism
and Islam. Yeah, they're trying that. By the way, if you're here, red-green alliance,
that's an Israeli asset talking. That's just a made-up garbage like that somehow communists
who are atheists are going to join up with Muslim fundamentalists who hate atheists.
It's just a total fantasy land. That's why mainstream media doesn't question. And they're like,
Red Green Alliance, it's so obviously true.
It's Israel told me it's true, et cetera.
It's just garbage.
And now they're all bigots attacking Mom Dani, like, oh, how dare he come to 9-11?
Why?
Just because he's Muslim?
These are the same people who are like, oh, he's so worried about bigotry.
And they're like, yeah, let's be bigots towards Mom Dotti.
He shouldn't be allowed 9-11.
He's a Muslim.
He's a Muslim.
Right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
All the Israeli supporters are the biggest racist in the country.
Racist.
They're like, oh, we murdered the Palestinians.
We occupy the Palestinians, but they're inferior to us.
So their lives don't matter.
That is the worst form of racism I have ever seen in my lifetime in this country.
We'll be back.
We're back on TYT, Janganana with you guys.
So let me tell you about one of our sponsors.
But we also use them.
So it's Shopify.
We use them for shoptyt.com.
They're excellent.
We tried everybody else.
They're the best there is.
And they put everything in one place for you.
They got hundreds of templates.
You could build a beautiful site.
Look, I originally built an online store and I don't know anything, right?
And we did it through Shopify.
It's a million years ago and we've been with them ever since.
They have a shop pay button that makes it way easier to check out.
And that really helps you.
So if you're setting up a shop or a business online, you'd be crazy not to use Shopify.
So Shopify.com slash t.
That's Shopify.com slash tyt or use that QR code.
All right, let's go to our next story.
Situation in Palestine is a moral emergency.
What the national-ehr government is doing in Gaza
is a stain on the conscience of the world.
And there is increasing evidence
war crimes appear to have been committed.
And we're witnessing unprecedented
settler terrorism in the West Bank.
And what is the established Democrat Party?
Hakeem Jeffrey by the name.
His name is Hakeem in Arabic is an Arabic name,
which means healer.
He's not a healer.
He's a divider.
He is bought and paid by APEC monkey with all due respect.
And I don't mean it in a racist way.
He is just basically an errand boy.
And we're done and tired of that.
Americans deserve better.
So that was Rule of Gibriol and that has created a maelstrom of fake controversy and people pretending to be offended.
I'll end the whole thing for you here, but then we'll give you the whole story including
all the fakers and posers, Rule Jabil is half Palestinian, and first of all, as a person who suffered
through a genocide and her family suffered through a genocide, she can say whatever the hell
she likes about the people committing and supporting and financing that genocide.
And I don't give a goddamn what you think about it.
But much more importantly in this context, she's half Nigerian.
That means she's black.
So all these people pretending that she's racist are giant liars.
All right, Anna, tell us those.
Even worse are the individuals who insist on engaging in the struggle sessions on this matter.
Please don't do that because she did nothing wrong.
So let's get into the details here because context does matter.
Attacking someone and calling them a monkey because of the color of their skin is racist.
But that's not what she did and everyone knows that.
So here are the details.
She is an award winning journalist who actually specializes in foreign affairs and immigration rights issues.
She was born in Haifa Israel, Haifa Palestine, now considered Israel, and grew up in the old
city of Jerusalem.
Now her father was born in Nigeria, her mother was born in Palestine, so that is her background,
her heritage, and she's often identified as being part of the Afro-Palestinian community,
something that many of her attackers online claimed doesn't exist, that Afro-Palestinian is not
a thing.
What?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So they attack her for being racist while engaging in their own form of racism.
That doesn't get called out by anybody.
No, no, it's funny because I was gonna make the point, they're invalidating her identity.
They sure are, yeah.
They're like, you're not black enough to say what you want about black people or something
along those lines, which is maniacal to begin with.
But I didn't even hear that they're saying it's that her identity doesn't exist.
They wanna erase, I would then I would say, you know what, whoever said that, you're
a billion times more racist.
They are.
And there's no question about it.
And I'll get later to who the biggest racist in the country is.
Spoiler alert, Zionist.
Yes.
Now, again, she has always identified as Afro-Palestinian, and after she was attacked by individuals who were denying her identity, she posted this on X.
My sisters, Rania and Rauya, and my niece is Ron and Razon, beg to disagree with your opinion that we are white women.
It's always astounding when someone with no access to our family tree ignore our Afro-Palestinian
history or our ethnicity appoints themselves the registrar of who we are.
Now last Tuesday she was a guest on Wajahat Ali's substack to discuss Apex hold over
U.S. politicians, our political system, and that includes of course the Democratic Party.
And as we know, Hakeem Jeffries is deeply corrupt.
should not be the next speaker of the House, should Democrats take control of the House.
And I believe that what you're about to learn about and what transpired over the weekend is really about setting the stage and conditioning people's minds to avoid attacking Hakeem Jeffries, because if you do, you're racist.
It's the same thing that Zionists deploy when it comes to attacking Israel as it commits ethnic cleansing and genocide.
You can't do that because that would make you a Jew hater.
So weaponizing identity essentially for political purposes.
It's cynical and it's disgusting.
And it hurts the cause of fighting racism.
Yeah.
Because a bunch of people bought off by APEC and I don't give a goddamn what race you're in,
you're still an errand boy.
Yes.
No matter if you're white, black, Asian, Indian, I don't care.
I care that you're an errand boy for a different country.
And don't come talking to us about racism when you support the kind of racism that murders
people.
Oh, it's no big deal to murder Palestinian kids, right?
Did you get paid enough by APEC, Hakeem Jeffries, and all the supporters in Washington?
You dare talk about racism after you want to finance the slaughter of Palestinians based
on their race, that they are inferior to the Israelis, so their children should be murdered
based on their race, and you still want to run your mouth about racism?
And you don't even mean it, and you don't mind hurting the cause of fighting racism, as long as
as the elites in Washington who say, oh, I'm black and I'm untouchable, I'm Jewish and I'm
untouchable, or whatever race or religion they're in.
I'm untouchable because I'm on the side of Israel.
No, you are not untouchable.
And we're going to criticize you and I don't care what kind of BS you cry.
Oh, oh, oh, racism, anti-Semitism.
Kiss my ass.
You're a billion times more racist.
You want to call, keep kissing Apex ass and murdering Palestinian kids based on their race?
Is that what you want to do while pretending that you care about racism?
Okay, yeah, I see who you are.
No, this is the energy the left needs to adopt, okay?
Because when you give into the mob, when you give into the bad faith attacks, you weaken your argument.
But anyway, before we get to, I mean, we can't, it's pouring out of us, we can't help
a comment on it before we even share all the details.
But here's what Rula said in this conversation with Wajahat Ali, which led to, in my opinion,
in these totally phony attacks. Let's watch.
We have evidence free. We have a whole bunch of news items we're going to talk about
where we see the biggest political spender in 2026. This is a fact, is APEC.
Yes.
APAC gave about $30 to $40 million of the $63 million to take out Abdel Say.
Democrats welcomed it. Hakeem Jeffries welcomes APEC money,
even though APEC is being funded by pro-Trump billionaires and is open.
attacking Democrats. Hakeem Jeffrey says, no problem. Hakeem Jeffries took APEC money and bundled it
into other PACs to help centrist and moderates. Hakeem Jeffries and Democratic leadership in the past
week, I don't know if you follow the story. They chose three Democrats to sit in the House Foreign
Affairs Committee. The three Democrats that they chose, folks, you cannot make this up. Jared Moskowitz,
Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and Wesley Bell, who've all been supported by APEC and are pro,
Israel Hawks. Make that make sense to me, Rula. Okay. So I want to go to the last, the next video.
So you get more context about how this conversation played out. The context matters because,
again, there is a difference between attacking someone and calling them a monkey because of their
skin color versus talking about the corrupt intent of a lawmaker. A former speaker of the
will soon be the Speaker of the House should Democrats take control?
of the House of Representatives following the midterms.
Calling him what she called him, I would have avoided that because of the reaction that you're
inevitably going to get.
But we live in a post-context world where people are acting as if she targeted him specifically
because of his skin color when that is not the case.
And that's what the video that I just showed you demonstrates.
Let's go to the next one.
This is the game we are in.
We're under occupation by APEC and by the Zionist genocidal lobby that is not working to advance America's interest or America's security.
They're working to advance the genocidal state of Israel, greater Israel project.
Genocidal project today in an main Israeli newspaper, the greatest Israeli reporter Amir Haas,
talked about the erasure of Palestinian life everywhere between the river and the sea.
That what Israel is pushing to do is cancel Palestinian completely, completely between the river
and the sea. And those are Israeli Jewish citizens who are saying these things.
And what is the established Democrat Party? Hakeem Jeffrey by the name. His name is
Hakeem. Hakeem in Arabic is an Arabic name, which means healer. He's not a healer.
He's not a healer. He's a divider. He is a bought and paid by APEC monkey with all due respect. And I don't mean it in a racist way.
So she says, I don't mean it in a racist way. People are still offended by her statement, pretending as though they don't understand what she was trying to say.
So then she takes to X immediately. And here's what she wrote. I am disgusted and horrified that Hakeem Jeffries is taking money from AAC amidst Israel's genocide in Palestine. That said,
a term that I used to describe him was inappropriate and offensive and should never have been used.
I apologize unconditionally.
At that point, it should be end of story, but it wasn't end of story.
Because of course, this had to be exploited by corporate Democrats who happened to be former
staffers in some cases of the Biden administration, which really helped Israel get started
with the genocide against the Palestinian people.
And then you also have some elected lawmakers in the Democratic Party going after her as well,
in a concerted way, and I'm gonna show you in just a second.
But first, of course, the California Post, right-wing publication,
exploited this for their own purposes.
Palestinian journalist Rula Gibriel calls Hakeem Jeffries an A-Pak monkey,
claims she didn't mean it in a racist way.
At no point in the article did they mention the fact that she's half Nigerian.
So that would have been relevant information.
And then they did include a bunch of statements from pro-Israel,
black members of Congress condemning her, including
including this statement from the Congressional Black Caucus, which happens to be very cozy with APAC.
I'll prove that to you in just a minute.
To be clear, there isn't a non-racist way to call Leader Jeffries a black man, a monkey, or errand boy.
Yes, there is.
Wahjahat Ali, this is what happens when we hold ourselves to such low standards for what's allowable in our discourse.
People get comfortable being openly bigoted.
Like you guys?
Well, you guys get super comfortable, aiding and abetting and funding, picking our first
freaking pockets, okay, to fund the bigotry and the racism in the Middle East.
Any word about that?
Any thoughts about that?
Members of the congressional black caucus, it might, am I being inappropriate by calling
you guys out because you guys happen to be black and I have light skin?
Is that the world that we live in where you guys get that immunity, that you want to be treated
differently because of the color of your skin, even when you engage in bad behavior?
Is that what you want?
Yeah, because I'm not giving into that.
I'm not giving into that.
Let me give you the rest of it.
We have to stop platforming and trafficking in anti-black racism.
There was no anti-black racism in that video.
At all.
The person who said it is black, you liars, you're disgusting liars.
The person who said it is black.
What is this?
What is this garbage?
It's a hit piece.
Okay.
It's a hit job.
Okay, let me just explain why they're doing it in the methodism and practices real quick.
So they did this to me.
New York Times called me anti-Muslim when I ran for office because they wanted to smear Bernie Sanders.
Remember, they called Bernie Sanders, as we predicted ahead of time, they called Bernie Sanders
an anti-Semite.
He's Jewish, it doesn't matter, because they're gonna smear you as an anti-Semite or racist
if you're opposed to Israel.
Now why did they never mention that I grew up Muslim when they were smearing me as anti-Muslim?
By the way, do I sound anti-Muslim?
Now their new conspiracy theory is that I'm secretly a Muslim agent.
Oh, okay.
But before I was anti-Muslim, whatever you need to do to smear people, and just like in this case, they never explained.
that I grew up Muslim. Why? Because they don't want you to look at the actual issue.
That's the number one thing. Did you hear what Arula said? She made a terrific point about
Netanyahu didn't just say from the river to the sea. He did from the river to the sea.
And other Israelis, great writers, two dozen generals, two former prime ministers are saying,
we're committing a genocide from the river to the sea. Now, of course, American media and the
Congressional Black Caucus don't want you to see that because they are funded by APEC and by the
Israeli lobby overall or they're owned in the case of the media by the people who fund
the Israeli lobby, literally the same exact people, right?
So they don't want you to notice how evil the Israeli government is and how racist there.
Does it get any more racist?
Because they take their money.
Does it get any more racist than murdering people based on their race?
Would the Israelis have murdered 23,000 Israeli kids, Jewish kids?
No, everybody knows they wouldn't have done that.
But they're Palestinians, their lives don't matter, so slaughter them.
And then you get a bunch of paid errand boys to come in, and I don't care if it's Mike Huckabee
or Ted Cruz.
Oh, am I being anti-Latino by calling out Ted Cruz as an errand boy, okay?
And Hakeem Jeffries and whoever the hell else, I don't care what your race or religion
is at all.
You're like, no, you have to care.
Unless you care about my race, you're a racist.
No, that's the exact opposite.
Yeah, exactly.
We're done listening to your crap.
The most important thing guys, and I've got a million other things to save, but these don't,
what I need you to understand is the congressional black caucus is a bunch of elitists who
work in Washington and take endless donor money.
They don't represent actual black people.
Bingo.
Okay, and just like Democrats, other white Democrats don't represent their voters, they represent
their donors.
See, what unites them is not, oh, they're white and they're black.
No, what unites both of those groups is that they're corrupt.
Yes.
Okay, and so the white legislators don't care about white or black voters and the black
legislators don't care about white or black voters.
All they care about is, where's my money?
Oh, you can't say that about black people, what?
So I can say it about white people?
I can say it about Latinos, but I can't say it about black people.
I can say it about Muslims and I can't say it about Jews.
Who made up these rules?
Okay.
All right, the elites who are pretending to represent, there's no conflict between Arabs and black people.
They're trying to create a conflict between Arab and Americans.
and black people trying to make sure that you don't get united because if you get united,
you might be opposed to their donors who they take money from. They take bribes from.
Last thing that's important in that context, congressional black caucus is not a unified whole.
So there are progressives within the black caucus that are great progressives and don't engage in this stuff, okay?
But the corporate establishment Democrats that lead the congressional black caucus are among the most corrupt people in Washington.
Not because they're black, but because they take tons and tons of donor money and betray
black voters on behalf of their donors.
That's why they try to distract you and go, oh, let's be racist against Muslims.
That'll be the right way to fight racism.
Sure.
No, you can kiss my ass.
We're not going to apologize to anyone over this.
They should apologize.
Why does he Kim Jeffrey's going to apologize for all the Palestinian kids that he helped murder
with the financing he helped debt for the brutal Israeli government?
I demand that apology. Otherwise, he's a racist against Muslims. What happened now?
Well, he is a racist. That is true. That is true. But everyone in media will ignore that.
Look, because they're all racist. They don't think Muslim lives matter at all, right? Put me wrong, cable news. Care once about Muslim lives. Never. Instead they'll be like, oh, yeah, yeah. Don't shut up. Kill the Muslims. Kill the Muslims. Oh, Hakim Jeffries, protect him. He's one of the elites. What excuse should we use? Oh, race, race will destroy the idea of fighting racist.
so we can help the black elites.
Exactly.
So going back to the Congressional Black Caucus, as I promise, the receipts in regard to the
APAC money that flows into their coffers, more than half of its current 61 members have
been endorsed or funded by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, APAC.
In the 2023, 2024 election cycle alone, APAC endorsed 26 of the caucuses members, raising
$4.6 million for them and another $3.5 million for black Democratic candidates, which helps
So you understand why it is that Kamala Harris had a real difficult time differentiating herself
from Joe Biden when it came to supporting genocide.
And in the end, she ended up losing the election, losing the race.
Now I don't think that was the only reason why she lost the race.
But I will admit that there were plenty of people who backed Kamala Harris, who were super salty
toward the Arab community because they didn't want to vote in favor of.
of someone from an administration who had funded the slaughter of their people in the Middle
East.
But anyway, Richie Torres jumps in, because of course he did, one of the biggest recipients
in Congress of that APAC money.
He says, calling a black man a monkey is racist, full stop.
If Wajahat Ali and Rula were on the far right, no one on the far left would have any trouble
condemning them for dehumanizing a black man in racist terms.
The silence is deafening.
No, it's not.
All I hear is all of your loudmouths saying it's totally okay to murder Palestinians based
on their race, but oh, I'm so offended.
That's all I hear.
What are you talking about?
You totally, like, you're in cahoots with mainstream media.
They made this a gigantic story.
What silence are you talking about?
And yes, Richie Torres works for the Israelis.
He's taken, what, five and a half million, six million?
Two million.
Some absurd millions of dollars from A-PAPE, but.
in the Israeli lobby to serve them as a servant.
That's what the white servants do.
That's what the black servants do.
That's what every servant of Israel does.
And if half the Congressional Black Caucus took money from APEC to serve Israel,
then half the Congressional Black Caucus is guilty.
And don't tell me, no, no, they're allowed to do corruption.
They're allowed to help murder Palestinians because they're black and you can't criticize them.
Does it look like I'm hesitating?
By the way, attacking Willa Gibria like that?
Is the equivalent of attacking a Holocaust survivor and calling them racist?
Oh, so you think your family was murdered in a genocide or in a Holocaust?
So what?
I'm going to call you racist for being opposed to the people committing the genocide.
No, you've murdered my family members.
I get to call you whatever the F I want, man.
Okay?
And what you did is a billion times worse, and you know it.
Every one of these is liars.
We're not playing their games anymore.
You should hate them.
Everyone who takes money from A-PAC that helps murder those kids in Gaza, you should hate them.
I do.
And I don't give a damn what they're racist.
And now, like, I'm Turkish.
You're going to tell me, no, you're not allowed to say certain things about Turks.
Yes, I am.
You're not the boss of me.
And Dr. Oz, he's also Turkish.
If you called him a savage because he's Muslim, I'd have an objection to that.
That would be problematic.
If you called his actions in the Trump administration savage, I wouldn't.
have any problems with that. Because it's true, yeah. Because it's true and it's related to that
context and not because he's Turkish or Muslim. That's hard to pick, Anna, that's the other thing.
The media pretends that's hard to understand. No, they understand. Oh, what is context? I am moron
reporter. I don't know what context is. Oh, you are not allowed to use forbidden words.
They are allowed to murder people, but you're not allowed to use certain words, even if it's not
the right context, even if it's apples and oranges. Now, come on, you're all morons. And
And maybe they are or maybe they're pretending to be morons.
So they could all make sure you don't know their beloved Netanyahu did murder from the river to the sea.
And Hakeem Jeffries to this day is backing him.
Look, guys, if you don't know, after he met with Jared Kushner about housing and affordability,
he then appointed Moskowitz, just like they were talking about on the show.
Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Wesley Bell, three of the biggest radical Zionists in Congress,
to be in charge of foreign affairs, including Moskowitz heading the Middle East.
committee and Moscow has came out right afterwards and said, we will support Israel unconditionally.
You hear that? I wonder if he said boy. I wonder if that's how they refer to Hakeem,
because that would be racist. And I would be shocked if they didn't do that. Hey, should we get our boy
to run an errand for us? Okay, because he does run errands for them. He just put all three of those
guys in charge in Congress. If we, if the Democrats win, there will be no change in Israeli policy.
See, thanks, Hakeem.
That could have helped us win elections.
60% of the voters are opposed to Israel, but Hakeem Jeffries gave that away.
He betrayed you because he took money from the Israelis because he's corrupt no matter what race he's in.
You don't get to hide anymore, Hakeem.
None of you get to hide.
You support genocide and you support racism that is so lethal that it's murdered 23,000 kids,
a lynching of epic proportions and you pretend you dare to complain about racism?
You are the racist.
Look in the mirror.
I mean, there's nothing left to be said.
Stop weaponizing race for your cynical political purposes.
It's not going to work anymore.
It's certainly not going to work here.
And more importantly, this is the most important message to the left who I think are well-meaning,
but they fall for it every time.
Stop negotiating with terrorists.
Stop pretending as though these bad faith attacks are something that you need to cave to.
Stop condemning someone you know is not racist and play into, I mean, they play into these
attacks every single time.
Watch how to how do it?
How about you don't do that?
How about you understand the person you interviewed on your own damn show and you understand
that she's not a racist and didn't engage in a racist attack?
Understand the context in which she used that word and had nothing to do with his skin color.
It had everything to do with the fact that Hakeem Jeffrey.
is a corrupt piece of crap.
And a racist.
And a racist.
Okay?
Because here's the thing, the left loves to lose.
Maybe they don't think they love to lose, but they sure act like it.
Stop giving them an inch.
They don't deserve it.
And they're only gonna use it against you.
They do it every time.
They do it every time.
They use it as an admission of guilt.
And all of those corrupt establishment figures who have all taken
bribes from the Israeli lobby all just attacked a black woman
and pretended that they were doing it to help the,
issue of racism. You all attacked a black woman. We have eyes and ears. We can see. We know what
race she is. You're absurd. Your love for Israel and the money they give you is disgusting.
All right, let's actually do the UK story now. We've got a little more time left and I want to
make sure we cover this. Let's go to D. The situation in Palestine is a moral emergency.
What the nationality government is doing in Gaza is a stain on the conscience of the world.
And there is increasing evidence war crimes appear to have been committed.
And we're witnessing unprecedented settler terrorism in the West Bank.
The British government has come to the same conclusion as the former Prime Minister of Israel and others
that there is ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in areas of the West Bank,
perpetrated by settler terrorists.
And too often the Israeli government has turned a blind eye to this.
And worse, members of it have made statements and taken actions
to support the forced displacement of Palestinians.
We will not stand by.
While the UK certainly has no problem violating the rights of their own citizens on behalf
of Israel, kind of shocking to see that the UK is now calling out Israel's obvious ethnic cleansing
of Palestinians in the West Bank, which of course in typical fashion the Israelis have responded
to by having panic attacks and threatening the UK in all sorts of ways, which we'll get to
in just a minute. Thugs. But yeah, they are thugs, the Israelis. Terrorists. And we'll see how the UK is
going to respond to that thuggery. Again, they had no problem violating the rights of their
own citizens, violating their freedom of expression in an effort to appease the Israelis.
But the video that you just watched featured Ed Miliband. He's the UK's Secretary of State
for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs. He announced that the UK will be implementing sanctions
specifically against Israeli settlements, illegal settlements, settlements, settlements in which Israeli terrorists
terrorists drove Palestinians out of their own rightful homes and built their illegal settlements.
And they keep doing it again and again and again.
The UK finally decided, you know what, following years of witnessing this happened, we're gonna
do some sanctions against products that are made from these Israeli settlements.
And Israel freaked out.
So these sanctions would ban imports from Israeli settlements built on Palestinian territory.
The official view of the British government is that the occupation of the West
Bank is unlawful. The government believes the unlawfulness of the occupation should be reflected
in the economic relationships we choose or chose to have with the occupied territories.
And then he doubled down on his decision in a video uploaded on X. Take a look.
Our North Star is our belief in the two-state solution that both the Israeli and Palestinian
people have a right to self-determination, freedom and security. Today we're calling out the
occupation of Palestine as unlawful.
We're banning the import of goods from illegal settlements.
We're taking action on services to target those who finance, facilitate, or construct new
settlements.
And we're banning advertising of settlement properties and land.
We're taking action too on settler terrorism.
The action we're taking today is against the government of Israel, not its people.
And just to ensure that everyone is fully informed on how narrow these sanctions.
sanctions really are. Let's go to Graphic 3, where CNBC reports, Miliband said the UK would
also extend a ban on arms exports to include refusing all license applications for arms and
other goods and services that materially contribute to the occupation in the West Bank
by the Israeli terrorists, the settlers. Okay, this is not a ban on products made in Israel,
although I think that Israel should be boycotted fully. Nonetheless, he called this in
effective double lock against arms sales after the UK suspended over 30 arms licenses used
by the IDF in Gaza. But all in all, this is part of a 12 country ban on trade with
Israeli, illegal Israeli settlements. Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Ireland, Norway, Poland,
Portugal, Spain, and Sweden also joined in on this, which I'm really happy to see. I wish they
would go further. Now Israel's reaction, as you can imagine, Jank, was they weren't happy.
Oh, no.
Boo, who, I wonder if I should care about their feelings.
I bet all of our media say that their feelings are more important than the lives of Palestinians.
I wouldn't be surprised.
Of course they say.
That's all they say.
That's all they say.
Oh, your feelings.
And they're unfair.
Oh, we want to be able to murder Palestinian kids, but you have to care about our feelings.
No, I don't.
So Israel has announced plans to shut down the U.S. consulate in Jerusalem.
I'm sorry, the U.K. consulate, my apologies.
The UK consulate.
Don't threaten us with a good time.
I know right, in Jerusalem in response to the UK's decision.
This is one of four countermeasures that are being implemented by Israel's foreign minister,
Gideon Tsar.
According to the BBC, by the way, others include the removal of British representatives
from the International Gaza Support Center,
the termination of British activities to train Palestinian Authority forces in the West Bank,
and the denial of entry to Israel.
12 British elected representatives and other British nationals.
I love that, that's my favorite threat from the Israelis.
Like no one wants to go to your stanky-ass country, okay?
You guys are genocidal lunatics, and anyone who wants to visit there for tourism or any other means is crazy.
But they're like, oh, we're not going to let you come to Israel.
Okay, great.
Again, don't threaten me with a good time.
Yeah, I recently talked to Muslims who went to Jerusalem to see the mosques.
He said, oh, the racism is over the time.
They treat Muslims like absolute dirt.
And then we've talked to Christians and interviewed them here.
They get spit on when they go to Israel.
Like, oh, you stupid Christian, how dare you?
And they spit all over the Christians.
Who would want to go to a disgusting fascist country like that?
You also have Israeli President Isaac Herzog slamming this decision.
He argued that the UK is trying to interfere with Israeli elections.
All the Israelis ever do is interfere with everyone's elections.
I mean, it is what they do.
Oh, yeah, cry me a river, man.
Yeah.
Oh, boo, we don't, we get them to get them.
medal in your country and we get to ban Jank and Hassan from coming to the UK.
But you can't do you say anything about us?
You're trying to affect us.
Yeah, they're trying to affect you from not slaughtering kids anymore.
I know, but for the Israelis, that's anti-Semitic if they're not allowed to slaughter you.
So as of this moment, it could change by the time we published this video.
President Trump has not responded to any of this news.
However, U.S. ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, who has actually referred to these,
Israeli settlers as terrorists himself, said that there will be consequences if the United
Kingdom actually follows through with these sanctions.
Doing something like this with Israel could have a huge economic impact on British businesses,
he said, warning they could be banned from doing business in a number of US states.
Yeah, no.
What does the US have to do with this, number one?
In fact, we should be boycotting Israel as a whole, of course that would never happen.
under the leadership we have now.
But in the very least, shouldn't we do sanctions against the very people that you refer to as
terrorist, Ambassador Huckabee?
Shouldn't we?
No.
So look, we're occupied.
That's why we're, that's why the Israeli government is speaking for us.
They're saying, hey, America, boys go and tell the UK, they're not allowed to do anything
against Israel, right?
And we go, oh, yes, sir, you don't do anything against Israel.
Why do we give a goddamn about Israel?
Why would anybody care?
Don't do anything against Papua New Guinea.
Why?
Why?
Why do we care about UK's relationship to Papua New Guinea or Israel or Nicaragua?
That's because we're owned by Israel, we're occupied by Israel.
Do you know that what Britain just did is illegal in over 30 US states?
And now if colleges or universities in America try to do a similar sanction movement, they will
have all of their federal funds pulled from them.
You can criticize or sanction or boycott America or the UK or any other country in the world.
The only country you're not allowed to sanction or boycott here in America because I know it's just a coincidence.
The reporters tell us it's just a coincidence.
They paid millions of dollars to the governors of all those states.
They're like, it's not enough to buy your federal government.
We need to buy your state governments.
And if anybody objects to Israel's economy, they want to hurt our economy a little bit, a tiny bit.
Crush those Americans!
They have no rights!
And our DeSantis and all the Abbott and all the governors are like, yes, sir, of course,
sir, where's my check coming in, sir?
I'll do anything for Israel, sir.
They passed those laws.
You know DeSantis went to Israel to sign one of those laws?
Yeah.
A law that says he'll punish American citizens and take their First Amendment rights away
on behalf of Israel, and he went to his benefactors and he's like, look at me, I'm such
a good puppet, yeah, I said puppet, I'm such a good bitch for Israel, but he's, but he's
for Israel. Look at me betraying my own voters in Israel on your behalf. Am I a good boy? Can I get
more treats? Okay? And I'm so I apparently I should apply again to get a visa in UK. Maybe
they'll change their minds. I doubt it. But Anna, the most important part of the story is
we're past the tipping point. I don't know. So no, no, no, no. I talking to an old friend
and reporter. He now lives in Europe and he said, Jank, and you've seen this when you've gone abroad,
I've seen it when I've gone abroad.
He said outside of New York, D.C., and L.A., the entire planet hates Israel.
Obviously.
And he's like, and no one is hiding.
But it doesn't matter, Jay.
No, no, no, hold on, hold on.
He's like, no one's hiding in, no one.
So once you step outside of the American media bubble, like no one's bothering to do these
excuses anymore.
There's not, they've lost track of propaganda everywhere outside of basically those three cities.
They've even lost the UK where they used to do overwhelming propaganda.
I'm the victim of that property.
But they haven't lost the UK.
The UK is happy, again, happy to violate the rights of its own citizens on behalf of Israel.
What the UK is doing here as it pertains to the so-called settlers who are really just terrorists
is very narrow sanctions, very narrow sanctions that Biden himself attempted to implement,
which were thrown out the window as soon as Trump got elected.
So I just look, as long as the power structures that we currently have in place remain in place,
as long as this system of greed and corruption remains in place, it doesn't matter.
Every single American citizen can loathe Israel till the end of time.
We're never gonna get true justice, we are never gonna be a true sovereign country until
we unite, get our heads together, strategize, and find a way to change the current.
power structures in this country. So our government actually represents us.
Because our government works for Israel. Exactly. Period. And our media who lies to you and tells
you that that's some sort of conspiracy theory and ignores the fact that they've given money
to 94% of Congress and is our number one donor to almost every president in our lifetimes,
that is the media actively hiding the bribes that the Israeli lobby is giving our government
officials. Why are they actively hiding evidence because they also work for Israel? And so now they can cry all day long and say, oh, you guys are all anti-Semitic and we disqualify you, you're illegitimate, and you're not credible. It doesn't matter because no one believes mainstream media anymore. You're not credible. You're not legitimate. Everybody knows you're disgusting puppets for a different country. And so we now ignore you and we laugh at you. When we see cable news anchors, we're like, oh, look at those genocide deniers.
Look at those people who are trying to help a genocide happen.
That includes every prime time anchor of MS Now, every prime time anchor of CNN and Fox News.
All of them are trying to deceive you into doing more genocides on behalf of Israel.
Prove me wrong.
One of you, one of your cable news anchors, including on MS Now, the prime time guys, go ahead, call it a genocide.
Right.
They can't call it a genocide because they work for Israel.
Yeah.
All right, we have one more story to do, which we're gonna do after for Operation Joy, just because it's important to cover.
And then we're gonna do Operation Joy, so let's take a break.
All right, we'll be right back.
